Annetta posted the approved minutes of its Sept. 17 council meeting; they record unanimous votes adopting the FY 2026-27 budget, amending the FY 2025-26 budget, joining the proposed Parker County Public Utility Agency, and creating the Capital Improvement Advisory Committee

Per the minutes: Council Member Kent Stasey "noted that the Town has not increased its water rates since 2014 and does not impose a property tax." The budget amendment largely reflects money fiber companies paid for damage to town streets during fiber installation, and the minutes say work by one company "was stopped until the Town was fully reimbursed." Freese and Nichols told the council the utility agency would have 14 participating entities, each appointing one board member, with votes weighted by entity size. The town's annual audit begins Oct. 26, and Mayor Sandy Roberts asked customers to cut back on outdoor watering, especially on weekends. No residents spoke at public comment. The minutes say they were approved Oct. 15.
