Council approves SAWS land acquisition ordinance for Salado Creek sewer main replacement

Council member Villagran moved to authorize the use of eminent domain on behalf of the San Antonio Water System (SAWS) to acquire property and temporary construction easements needed for the Salado Creek sewer main replacement project in the city's southeast quadrant.

The ordinance describes the project corridor beginning near the intersection of Con Grove Boulevard and Tree House Drive, proceeding south past East Southcross Boulevard and following Salado Creek toward a point west of Southeast Loop 410. The clerk read the ordinance caption and the council moved and seconded the item; the motion carried.

No members of the public had signed up to speak on the item. Council did not record a detailed roll-call tally in the public transcript excerpt; the motion is recorded as carried and the item will proceed to SAWS for implementation steps tied to the project map and exhibits described in the ordinance.
