The Week of March 16th - 20th, 2020 in the City of Waxahachie


Hello Neighbors!

First, the Waxahachie Fire Department will be providing a free breakfast and lunch item on Monday, March 16th, for those kids in need who attend WISD schools. Details are in the picture and through this the WFD's Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/Waxahachie-Fire-Rescue-Department-522687991184327/    

Second, here is the link to all the draft minutes of recent board meetings in Waxahachie for your review: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1RHTWEPiYFBv0X2lU-XnBD1R-7hodf_y6

Third, amid all the fear regarding COVID-19, you can be assured that the city is taking this very seriously and working to ensure that every reasonable precaution is being taken.  I think it is safe to say that in the coming days, there will be cases that pop up in Ellis County and we are prepared.  We just ask everyone to stay calm and to use good practices as recommended by the CDC.  Here is a link to more information regarding COVID-19 prevention on the CDC's website:  https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prepare/prevention.html

This will probably be one of our shortest meetings and therefore there was no need for a briefing session for this meeting.

Items of interest include:

8. Recognition of Utility Dept. Team Members that received awards at the 2020 Texas Water Utilities Association Annual Training School

12. Emergency Management updates and discussion (most-likely related to COVID-19).
