Brief History of the City of Woodcreek

The City of Woodcreek incorporated in 1984 as a Type-B General Law City.

In 1989, the City became a Type-A General Law City, with the required population of over 600. As such, Woodcreek is governed by a city council, which consists of five Council Members and the Mayor. A Type-A General Law City does not have a charter; rather it operates according to state statutes which prescribe the City's powers, duties, and limitations. Most of the state laws applicable to general law cities are found in the Texas Local Government Code.

The City of Woodcreek consists of approximately 696 acres of land, which includes Brookmeadow, the original 18-hole Woodcreek golf course, the homes in what was originally called Woodcreek Resort Subdivision, the Oak Orchard Enclave, and Camp Young Judaea.

The 2020 Census states that the population of Woodcreek is 1,770 with 910 housing units.

The City's sources of revenue are utility franchise fees, ad valorem taxes, sales taxes, and mixed-beverage taxes.

The City Council consists of a Mayor, Mayor Pro Tem, and four Council Members. View the current members of the Council page.

The Mayor and Council Members are elected to two-year terms. Council meetings are held on the second and fourth Wednesday of every month.

The Council agenda is posted outside City Hall at 41 Champions Circle and on the city's website 72 hours prior to the Council meeting and the public is encouraged to attend. View the online agendas and minutes.
