The DHCS meeting scheduled for Tuesday night, September 17th, regarding the Wimberley Loop Transmission Project has been postponed.
Last week, DHCS learned that Pedernales Electric Coop is planning a new transmission line that may affect Driftwood. We scheduled a meeting for Tuesday, Sept. 17 to discuss this.
However, in doing some preliminary legwork to see if we could find more detailed information on the PEC's new transmission line for our meeting, we have learned that PEC has not yet finalized or made public possible maps/routes and timelines. But, they tell us they are close to finalizing feasibility studies for three options that they will then present in public meetings where the community will then be able to provide feedback and comments.
PEC has an FAQ for the project here:
Without any maps or details to discuss, we've decided to postpone Tuesday evening's meeting on this subject until we have information to work with. We are monitoring the situation and will keep you informed of any further information or meetings. Thank you for your support and interest!
