The city committed $10 million to continue the Edwards Aquifer Protection program in 2023, but that funding isn't guaranteed every year.
The City of San Antonio is looking to expand the protection program that has been in place and expanded on since 2000.
It will cost $3,143,208 and $294,575, respectively, to purchase conservation easements over the 2,268-acre Moos Ranch in Uvalde County and the 74-acre Littleton Ranch in Medina County. At that time, the program was limited to properties within Bexar County — despite the fact the aquifer spans eight counties. Eventually, changes in state legislation allowed the program to buy land outside of Bexar County, and today, the majority of protected properties are outside Bexar County, Covington said.
