Utility coordination: Not confirmed on an official page for Schertz. GVEC has a customer service center in Schertz. If the site is on GVEC, the owner first gets zoning, survey and city permits, then sends GVEC a commercial request for information, expected load and voltage needs. GVEC energizes after the city tells it the inspection passed. If the site is on CPS Energy, CPS needs the city's electric inspection release before it sets the meter.
