About Precinct One

Precinct One is a vital part of the county that covers parts of several cities, municipal utility districts and unincorporated areas. Our precinct is a mix of urban, suburban, and rural areas, with a blend of tradition, technology and communities. Local governmental entities located entirely or partially in Precinct One include: the City of Austin, the City of Georgetown, the City of Round Rock, Anderson Mill Municipal Utility District, Brushy Creek Municipal Utility District, Fern Bluff Municipal Utility District, North Austin Municipal Utility District # 1, Springwoods Municipal Utility District, and the Brushy Creek Water Control Improvement District.

Williamson County is one of the fastest growing counties in Texas and indeed, in the United States.  To reduce congestion brought on by rapid growth, Williamson County is in the process of building and improving many of our roadways.  Some of the road improvements are being funded through road bonds which were authorized by the voters in 2000.  Currently, in Precinct One, the county recently completed the realignment and improvements to McNeil Road, we are working on extending Lakeline Blvd., and an extension of O'Connor Blvd. south to SH45 is in the planning stages.  Additionally, the Texas Department of Transportation recently opened SH 45 through Precinct One.  For more information on this project, click here (www.dot.state.tx.us).  Also, the Central Texas Regional Mobility Authority opened 183-A, a loop around the Cedar Park-Leander area. The road will begin just north of the westernmost portion of the precinct.  For more information on the Highway 183-A project, click here (www.ctrma.org).  The portion of Precinct One that is in the City of Austin is also in the Capital Metro Transportation Authority service area.  For Capital Metro information, click here (www.capmetro.org).

Many major employers and retail centers are located in Precinct One including:
Dell Computer, La Frontera, Round Rock Premium Outlets, IKEA, Manitowoc Boom Trucks, State Farm Insurance, Sulzer Orthopedics, TECO-Westinghouse. Several local newspapers cover our area including the Austin American Statesman, the Round Rock Leader and the Williamson County Sun.

Education is important to the future of Williamson County.

Also, we are pleased to share the new site of the Round Rock Higher Education Center-Texas State University with precinct four. The first structure named the Avery Building, will  serve approximately 3500 college students from our area and offer a variety of college level courses.

Health care is vital to any community and precinct one is proud to be the home of Round Rock Medical Center/St. David’s, Georgetown Medical Center/St. David’s, plus the soon to open Scott and White University Medical Campus and Hospital.  Also, the site of the upcoming Seton Williamson County Hospital is located immediately adjacent to precinct one.
