The 2023 Travis County Citizens Bond Advisory Committee (CBAC) has begun the process of selecting projects to be recommended to Commissioner’s Court for potential funding in November 2023 bond referendums. This site is the portal to the CBAC and its process; find timelines, schedules, project lists, documents, meeting agendas and minutes, contacts and more.
Travis County’s Citizens Bond Advisory Committee (CBAC) held its first meeting on January 25, 2023. Created and appointed by the Travis County Commissioners Court, the fifteen member CBAC is charged with advising the Commissioners Court on the need for a bond election and the prospects for conducting a successful election in November 2023. If the CBAC determines a bond program is warranted, they will advise the Court on the overall scope of a bond package, recommend a prioritized list of projects, and report on the fiscal impacts to the County and local area. The final report will also include recommendations on projects to be considered for funding through the annual budget process or funded through future bond elections.
The Citizens Bond Advisory Committee is asked to provide an initial status report to the Commissioners Court within three months after their first meeting, with a final report due no later than July 11, 2023.
