The Arc of the Capital Area, a nonprofit organization serving individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, plans to reopen its Hutto campus.

The gist: The organization temporarily closed its Hutto doors in mid-March to allow for renovations. As The Arc of the Capital Area plans to move back in this April, it’s inviting the community to assist with the relocation.

Tasks include joining the move-in crew to help set up and organize, assist in decorating the space, shopping for items on the organization’s Amazon wishlist and making monetary donations to support the space. The move-in will take place April 6-7, 8 a.m.-5 p.m. each day, at 502 Church St., Hutto.

Mark your calendars: The organization will host Bark for The Arc Gallery Sale, which will take place at Hopsquad Brewing Co. in Austin, on May 8, 5-6 p.m. A portion of every purchase made during the event will go to supporting Austin-based artists with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and help ensure the availability of free therapy dog services in Central Texas.

Williamson County commissioners adopted the Atlas 14 Floodplain Mapping Study March 24, which identifies flood-prone areas to guide growth and development in the county, as well as helps reduce flood risk, according to county documents.

How it works: The Atlas 14 study identifies flood-prone areas using updated scientific rainfall data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, as well as topographical information.

Williamson County will use the study for drainage and floodplain management in unincorporated areas of the county, according to a news release.

The Texas Water Development Board accepted the study in 2025, and with recent court approval, the study can regulate the floodplains and enforce permits for encroachment.

The impact: In the past decade, Williamson County has experienced severe flooding, including in 2010, 2015 and 2017. Most recently, deadly floods over the July 4, 2025, weekend devastated parts of the county.
