Seguin City Council to vote on $423,350 software contract; recent meeting outcomes pending
Seguin's recent government meetings covered data center zoning, economic incentives, property variances, and water rates, but minutes have not yet been published for any of the seven meetings held since July 7. That means outcomes — including votes on a KTH Texas incentive agreement and a Premium Waters termination — are not yet part of the public record. The most consequential dollar items appear on the July 21 City Council agenda, where council members will consider a $423,350 software subscription and a $138,187.72 equipment purchase.
City Council (July 7)
The council held public hearings and first readings on two Unified Development Code amendments: one adding "Data Centers" as a new permitted use and another creating a Conditional Use Permit process with related fees. A third public hearing addressed a zoning change for 3033 N. Austin St. from Suburban Residential to Commercial. The council also considered a Chapter 380 Economic Incentive Agreement with KTH Texas, Inc. and a termination of a Performance Agreement with Premium Waters, Inc. No vote tallies or outcomes are available; minutes have not been published.
Zoning Board of Adjustment (July 9)
The board considered two variance requests. Jesus Palacios Delgado sought a reduction of the front setback from 25 feet to 3 feet to retain an unpermitted carport at 730 S River St. (VAR 07-26); staff recommended denial, citing a lack of hardship. A second variance (VAR 08-26) would allow a lot depth of 86 feet and lot size of 5,562 square feet for a church rezoning at 634 S Goodrich; staff recommended approval, noting the lot is legal non-conforming. The board also approved minutes from its June 11, 2026 meeting. Outcomes of the variance votes are not yet available.
Building & Standards Commission (July 13)
The commission held public hearings and considered possible action on structures at three properties: 516 Riley St., 727 Shannon Ave., and 915 Anderson St. Members also voted on minutes from the May 11, 2026 meeting. No outcomes have been published.
Planning & Zoning Commission (July 14)
The commission took up multiple zoning and land use items, including:
- ZC 08-26: R-1 to DP-2 at 212 E Walnut Street
- ZC 09-26: R-1 and ZL to PUD in the 8100 block of State Hwy 123 North
