Josh Schroeder - Georgetown Mayor

Recap of May 12, 2026 Council Meeting
1) Election Canvassing – We swore in our newest Council Member, Doug Noble, to serve as the representative of District 2, and Council Member Jake French was sworn in for is third term as the representative for District 6. I also took my oath to serve my third (and final) term as Mayor. We have a great team on Council, and I look forward to serving one last term with these folks. I also want to thank Shawn Hood for his six years of service to the City. He will be sorely missed.
2) Ground Water Supply Agreement – We reached a huge milestone in our efforts to secure the long-term water needs for Georgetown by signing a comprehensive term sheet with Recharge to bring 34,800-acre feet of water to Georgetown by 2031. This agreement will almost meet our needs for the full build out of the community when combined with all of our other efforts, including conservation, aquifer storage, gray water irrigation, and reuse. We have been working toward this agreement for years now, and it’s a huge relief to come to an agreement on these key terms. As we have been very clear about, the price of water is going up in Central Texas, but at least we now have a handle on how much our water is going to cost and know that we will have it.
