Approve Service Extension Request No. 6290 for wastewater service to a 2.85-acre tract located at 1107 Castle Ridge Road within the City’s Drinking Water Protection Zone, the City’s two-mile extraterritorial jurisdiction, and Austin Water’s wastewater service area. This action concerns land located within the Barton Springs Zone. Funding: This item has no fiscal impact. The property owner will pay the related infrastructure costs to connect to Austin Water’s wastewater system.

In plain language — from the agenda backup

Council is weighing whether to extend wastewater service to a 2.85-acre tract at 1107 Castle Ridge Road, which sits in some of Austin's most sensitive turf — the Drinking Water Protection Zone, the Barton Springs Zone, and the city's two-mile extraterritorial jurisdiction. Because it touches the Barton Springs watershed, extending utility lines here is the kind of decision that carries environmental weight beyond a single hookup. There's no fiscal impact to the city; the property owner pays the infrastructure costs to connect to Austin Water's system.
