Robstown voters focus on water quality in upcoming board election

ROBSTOWN, Tx — Water concerns are driving high interest in the upcoming Nueces County Water Control and Improvement District 3 board election in Robstown, where 12 candidates are running for three open positions.

According to NCWCID #3 district manager Marcos Alaniz, elections are held every two years, but the last contested race was in 2018 after previous cycles drew no candidates.

Robstown residents tell Neighborhood News Reporter Stephanie Molina they are focused on local water quality.

"We don't use the water," Noel Silva said. "We usually buy it. We buy the bottled water, or we come over here and get the water because we don't right now we don't trust the water district right now. So that's our main concern for our health and, for our pets too."
