City of Kerrville launching Citizens Academy

The City of Kerrville has announced it’s launching its first Citizen’s Academy.  The Citizen’s Academy aims to engage the community by providing a better understanding of the city’s operations and the wide range of services it offers.  Along with classroom sessions, the Citizen’s Academy is offering an immersive experience with tours of city facilities, including the water production plant, wastewater treatment facility, police and fire stations, various parks and the library.
