I hope everyone is enjoying the less-than-100-degree weather we are finally having. A little more fall-like temperatures would still be okay by me though! We have a very busy month in the City of Waxahachie with meetings and the TML (Texas Municipal League) Annual Conference. October 1st is also the beginning of our fiscal calendar at the City.
Let's start with our monthly calendar. I see that some other meetings are scheduled; however, they do not have agendas that are posted yet (and probably not even created at this time). The direct link to this calendar is: http://www.waxahachie.com/calendar.php

1:00 PM - Economic Development Commission Meeting
Council Conference Room - City Hall
Agenda Packet: https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/document-uploads-001/uploads/video/agenda_file/33420/10-1-19_Economic_Development_Agenda_Packet.pdf
The only real matter for discussion will be item #4 - Consider incentives for Showbiz Cinemas to construct an entertainment center at 108 Broadhead Road and take any necessary action. - As far as incentives go, I'm normally pretty tough on allowing them. Why? Because I've been wanting lower taxes for the people of Waxahachie and it seems wrong to give big businesses a break when not giving ANY to the residents. Be that as it may, it doesn't mean that I automatically won't approve any incentive. I have to listen to all the discussion and reasons that the incentives are being requested before approving.
This is a public meeting and you are welcome to attend. This meeting will not be live-streamed.

Noon - Civil Service Commission Meeting
Mayor's Office - City Hall
Agenda Packet - https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/document-uploads-001/uploads/video/agenda_file/33408/10-2-19_Civil_Service_Agenda_Packet.pdf
There are a couple of items that residents might find of interest, but I defer you to the agenda packet above. This is a public meeting and you have the right to attend, but they also reserve the right to go into executive session on any item, which they might due for personnel issues.

The rest consists of standard meeting items such as discussing park activities & projects and taking any necessary action. I do not have details of whether or not we have any action items or if there are any activities or projects which may come up for discussion.
