Civic issues
Topics getting the most attention in Leander public meetings, ranked by how frequently they come up.
CapMetro Emergency Simulation Exercise
City Council members will observe an emergency simulation exercise conducted by CapMetro at the Leander Rail Station Park & Ride. The event ensures local preparedness and coordination with regional transit authorities.
Alcohol setback variance policy review
The Zeytun grill case exposed how clunky the city's 300-foot alcohol setback variances are. The council approved the signage fix but directed staff to study a broader ordinance change so legitimate restaurants aren't repeatedly coming before council.
IT cybersecurity investments
The city spent about $1.29 million through state contracts on critical IT infrastructure and cybersecurity systems, plus an interlocal hosting agreement — protecting city data and services.
