Thursday, March 26 • 7pm • WB Community Center
As a neighborhood association, we’re interested in how we can better serve our residents and increase community involvement from those living in our apartment communities as well as our single family homes. Wells Branch has several new apartment complexes that have opened recently or plan to open in the near future. As a group, we’ve been concerned about a lack of infrastructure and amenities where some of these apartments are located. We will be reaching out to the management teams for the 20+ complexes we have in our area and encouraging attendance at the upcoming CDBG meeting. We’d like for you to join us as well.
Every year, Travis County receives approximately $997,649 in federal funds from a program called the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG). The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program funds housing, infrastructure and social services projects for residents with low and moderate income that live in the unincorporated areas of Travis County. Residents and non-profit agencies can help determine projects by providing project ideas and proposals. Travis County Health and Human Services will explain the CDBG program and provide our community paper copies of the Participation Form so that we may provide our comments and ideas to the Commissioners Court by March 31st.
Residents will have the opportunity to learn more about the program, present community needs and recommend projects for CDBG funds at the meeting. Please make time to attend.
To learn more about CDBG, take the survey online, or suggest a project, visit www.co.travis.tx.us/CDBG

Traffic: Wells Branch and the surrounding area have experienced massive growth in the last few years. Some of this growth was actively challenged, but we did not have much of a voice in the decisions that were made. Now the Wells Branch MUD is looking at the traffic and safety concerns this growth has and will continue to create. The MUD Safety Committee is scheduled to meet with our county commissioner and other Travis County authorities to ensure they understand the magnitude of the impact to the community, to request impact studies and to brainstorm possible remedies. We want to hear the community’s specific concerns and ideas before the visit with Travis County.
Street & Sidewalk Maintenance: The committee will also take concerns that residents have about their specific street to Travis County. If you have a crumbling curb or pot hole, please document it with pictures and note the address closest to the problem so we can experts from companies such as https://www.brothersconstructionwi.com/our-services/sidewalks/ for resolution. Include your contact information and send these digitally to info@wellsbranchmud.com.
