Staff is not recommending any action at this time given that only one complaint has been received from a Cibolo resident, the City of Cibolo has already passed a no thru trucks ordinance
and signed it, and no complaints have been received from Schertz residents. The City of Cibolo can enforce their ordinance in response to their resident's complaint.
Barring objections from TSAC, staff will close this item.
