Title: Briefing on performance measures updates from Austin Water. [Shay Ralls Roalson, Director - Austin Water].
Summary
The City of Austin's Climate, Water, Environment, and Parks Committee met on February 25, 2026, to review a performance update from Austin Water. This meeting focused on the status of key performance indicators (KPIs) related to water and wastewater services, including metrics on water quality, infrastructure conditions, and service responsiveness. The updates are critical for assessing Austin Water's effectiveness in providing reliable and affordable services to residents, as well as ensuring compliance with industry standards and regulations. One major goal is to keep the median household expenditure on water bills significantly below the EPA's affordability threshold. The legislation emphasizes transparency in utility performance, which impacts both residents and city infrastructure sustainability.
