Good morning. The City of Austin has a limited supply of bottled water available for distribution and is working on procuring more from several sources. The priority is getting the current supply out to the community as quickly as possible with a phased distribution plan focused on high-need communities first, such as those in the top ten food insecure zip codes. Austin Homeland Security and Emergency Management worked in collaboration with the Equity Office to identify sites with an intentional effort to locate sites in areas that are close to several council districts. Here are the sites for today, Sunday, Feb 6, 2022:

Travis County Expo Center

Hours: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Austin Water Glen Bell Service Center*

People often ask how does a “pay what you can” model work? The answer:
- pay what you normally would for your meal.
- pay more than you normally would for your meal,
to pay it forward.
- pay what you can afford for your meal.
