Statement on PLDA Agreement

The Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority (GBRA) is committed to being a good neighbor and serving as a
collaborative partner in the effort to identify viable solutions to ensure the long-term sustainability of the
Guadalupe Valley Lakes. To that end, GBRA is in strong support of Preserve Lake Dunlap Association’s
(PLDA) proposal to create a water control improvement district to fund the necessary replacement of the
spillgates at the hydroelectric dam at Lake Dunlap.

GBRA is prepared to present its Board of Directors with a proposed memorandum of understanding with
PLDA outlining these agreements at the Oct. 23, 2019 meeting for formal approval. Meanwhile, GBRA will
continue working with the other lake associations to determine the long-term solutions for the remaining
lakes.
