The Week of November 11th - 15th, 2019 in the City of Waxahachie

Hello Neighbors!

First of all, THANK YOU to all of our veterans.

The Veteran Appreciation Ceremony on Saturday was absolutely beautiful.  If you haven't attended this annual event before, I STRONGLY recommend doing so next year - and bring tissues.  It's for all veterans, their families and for anyone who appreciates them.

There is not a Council meeting this week, but we do have several others.

8:30 AM - FR&R Meeting
Fireman's Relief and Retirement Fund
Fire Station #2, 1600 Cleaver, Waxahachie


Agenda Packet:  https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/document-uploads-001/uploads/video/agenda_file/36638/11-11-19_FR_R_Agenda_Packet.pdf

This is a great meeting to attend, if for no other reason than to see how hard this board works to ensure that our firefighters are taken care of in retirement.

Per the above agenda, they will be discussing the pension review board funding policy and taking any necessary action.  They will also hear a presentation regarding investments and consider the TX Local Fire Fighters' Retirement Act Annual Report.

This meeting will NOT be live-streamed.
The public are welcome to attend.

*** Today is Veteran's Day, so please thank a Veteran for their service and remember those who have given the ultimate sacrifice. ***
