# Kyle Buzz: Water Plans, Tax Talks, and Fair Festivities!
Big news in Kyle as the City Council just approved its first-ever Water Master Plan yesterday! This ambitious 50-year strategy addresses the growing water needs of our rapidly expanding community. With Kyle's population expected to jump from 61,000 in 2030 to about 148,000 by 2080, city officials partnered with STV Engineering to evaluate existing water sources and create a framework for future supply management[1]. Currently, Kyle has a permitted water supply of 6.65 million gallons per day, but projections show we might face shortages as soon as 2050[1].
Meanwhile, Hays County officials have called for a pause on property tax exemption decisions amid growing concerns over potential tax revenue losses[2]. This development could impact homeowners and county services, so stay tuned for updates as this story develops.
Get ready for some weekend fun at the 2025 Kyle Fair A Tex-Travaganza! This three-day, family-friendly extravaganza kicks off today with live music, delicious Texas-worthy food, market vendors, and carnival rides and games[3]. It's the perfect way to start the summer season with the whole family!
The community buzz continues with several important meetings and events happening this week, as highlighted in yesterday's "Kyle Texas News and Info Tracker" podcast[4]. The daily update provides residents with essential information to stay connected to local happenings.
Looking ahead, mark your calendars for May 17th for another day of the Kyle Fair A Tex-Travaganza, running from 10:00 am to 10:00 pm[5].
Whether you're concerned about our water future, interested in local tax policies, or just looking to enjoy some carnival fun this weekend, there's plenty happening in our vibrant community. Kyle continues to balance growth challenges while maintaining the small-town charm that makes it special.
That's the latest from Kyle, Texas - where small-town heart meets big-city vision!
