The Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority is pleased to partner with New Braunfels Utilities and the City of New Braunfels on One Water New Braunfels – a transformative collaboration program to ensure the protection and sustainability of water in New Braunfels for generations to come. Read the One Water New Braunfels News Release.
The vision of One Water New Braunfels is to ensure water remains a celebrated and protected feature of our community by collaboratively managing our water resources to safeguard watersheds, waterways, and groundwater. To achieve this, we must:
- Plan for and manage water resources holistically and sustainably
- Maximize environmental, social, and economic benefits to the greater New Braunfels area
- Ensure water remains a celebrated feature of our community
- Provide sustainable and high-quality water
- Ensure healthy watersheds, waterways, and groundwater resources
With a strong desire to provide water management that is resilient, sustainable, and in keeping with the values of the New Braunfels community, the One Water New Braunfels Roadmap is a framework to support water management agencies and the community in realizing its vision.
The 2023 Interlocal Agreement between the three agencies outlines the governance and management of the One Water New Braunfels program. The agreement establishes an advisory council and a working group, made up of subject matter experts from the three agencies, responsible for continued development and implementation of the New Braunfels One Water Roadmap. A Program Coordinator will manage day to day operations of the program, support efforts of the advisory council and working group, and serve as primary liaison with the community at large.
