While a significant portion of the FY 2019‐20 capital investment is cash funded, the city plans to issue debt
related to the new Senior Activities Center located at Johnson Road Park. In November 2018, Keller voters
approved plans to issue up to $8 million in debt without an associated tax rate increase.
In addition, there is other future debt on the horizon that can be found on the city’s five‐year CIP. In FY
2015‐16, the city applied for and was approved to receive SWIFT financial assistance from the Texas Water
Development Board. The city will receive low‐interest loans through the program totaling $12,180,000 set
to be issued in three intervals that started in FY 2016‐17. These funds will be used to implement improved
water management strategies, including the replacement of approximately 12 miles of deficient system
pipe and 1,600 deficient water services that are over 40 years old, composed of obsolete material, and
are experiencing more leaks and breaks. The next two rounds of funding will be in FY 2020‐21 and FY
2023‐24.
In FY 2022‐23, debt is planned to be issued for the Elm Street and Old Town Keller street projects. In FY
2024, debt will also be issued for the Whitley Road project. The full scope of these projects are still to be
determined, but should include reconstruction of the roads and drainage improvements.
