Kerrville - Watershed Program

Kerrville may look into a watershed program that could fund riverside clean-up, stabilization of the streambank and property buybacks. According to the Daily Times, The Natural Resources Conservation Service, a program under the Emergency Watershed Protection Program

offers technical and financial assistance for mitigation floods projects and erosion. The city would have to contribute 25 percent of constructions costs and ongoing maintenance if they participate. No decision was made allotting money for the program or buying back flood- damages property at the council meeting last week.
