Hold a public hearing regarding approval of updated land use assumptions and capital improvements plan for Water and Wastewater Facilities and amending capital recovery fees pursuant to Texas Local Government Code Chapter 395 (Executive Director of Development Services)

Based on the study, the CIAC has approved a motion for the consideration of Water and Wastewater Capital Recovery Fee Update by the League City City Council.
