For Lower Seguin Road, consent Item 2 proposes an $876,415 amendment to Halff’s engineering agreement and a $3.5 million total expenditure cap. Its supporting resolution connects the amendment to utility conflicts and changes in scope. The $876,415 figure is the proposed amendment, while $3.5 million is the proposed cap; neither describes a recorded vote at this future meeting. Residents following the project can compare those terms in the Lower Seguin resolution.
For Lookout Road, consent Item 1 proposes a $35,000 Halff engineering amendment and a $600,000 total expenditure cap. The amendment concerns sewer upsizing and alignment at the Schertz Parkway intersection. These engineering figures are distinct from the full construction forecast in the project sheet. The Lookout resolution sets out the proposed amendment.
The Lookout Road project sheet describes reconstruction between Schertz Parkway and Doerr Lane, sewer upsizing and a new traffic signal at Schertz Parkway and Lookout Road; it forecasts a $7,308,692 total project cost and September 2027 completion. That is a project forecast in supporting material, not the amount of the proposed engineering amendment. Readers tracking the broader work can inspect the Lookout project sheet and map.
Service agreement and employee benefits
Consent Item 3 proposes authorizing the city manager to sign a tree and brush removal service agreement with South Texas Tree Service LLC. The draft resolution carries blank passage and signature fields. Its attached agreement is the record to examine for the service terms; the reviewed material does not establish a council decision on Oct. 20.
Consent Item 4 places a proposed critical-illness-insurance interlocal agreement before council. The retained agenda identifies the proposal, but the meeting guide cannot establish its eventual terms or outcome from that listing alone.
Hearings and workshop
Item 6 schedules a public hearing on a proposed data-center Unified Development Code ordinance. Item 7 schedules a public hearing concerning Scenic Hill drainage. Those hearings give residents a route to address each subject before any action that may follow; the posted schedule supplies no testimony from this future meeting.
Item 8 is a street-lighting workshop. Because it is listed as a workshop, readers should treat it as a scheduled discussion rather than a completed lighting decision.
Other business and how to take part
Items 9 through 11 list closed-session notices, and Items 12 through 14 reserve possible public action afterward. The notices identify possible subjects for private discussion; any resulting public action requires its own later record.
Items 15 and 16 provide the August and September 2026 check reports as packet information, with no discussion scheduled. They are background financial records rather than separate proposed road or service authorizations. The September check report is available for readers who want to inspect that month's listed payments.
Schertz City Council is scheduled to meet at 6 p.m. Oct. 20, 2026, in the council chambers at the Hal Baldwin Municipal Complex, 1400 Schertz Parkway, Building 4; the agenda schedules a Hearing of Residents. The hearing is a way to participate, and the two item-specific public hearings are the clearest opportunities to follow the data-center and drainage proposals. After the meeting, the next records to check are council’s posted actions and minutes for the road authorizations, hearings and any action following closed session.
