Buda City Council To Discuss New Annexation & Growth Management Strategy

Buda City Council To Discuss New Annexation & Growth Management Strategy

Below are a few items from the new Zoning and Annexation Strategy:

• Every annexation and ETJ decision should be policy driven and evaluated in terms of how it fits with the annexation-related goals and policies of the comprehensive plan and with this strategy.
• Annexation and ETJ management should be viewed as a continuous process that begins with ETJ best management practices and ends with annexation into the City.
• The strategy is intended to facilitate annexation as a means of ensuring that Buda fully benefits from development in the ETJ and to protect and, when possible, extend the ETJ.

*ETJ = Extra Territorial Jurisdiction: ETJ is the acronym for Extra Territorial Jurisdiction and is the legal ability to exercise authority of the nearest town / city’s form of government. An ETJ is measured from any given city limit line to a mile out or more depending on the population of the adjacent town / city
