The Week of March 22nd - 26th, 2021 in the City of Waxahachie


Hello Friends!

We have a pretty busy week of meetings ahead of us, but before we get started, the Ellis County vaccine hub in Waxahachie is in need of volunteers. For those of you who would like the opportunity to serve,  you can sign up here:  https://www.signupgenius.com/go/volunteerwaxahachie

Monday, March 22, 2021
------------------------------------
*** 5:00 PM - Joint Work Session of the Waxahachie City Council and WISD School Board***
Waxahachie Police Department Community Room
630 Farley Street


I pushed for this meeting to happen because both entities work closely together and it's been quite a while since we all got together.  The growth that the city approves affects the WISD and in turn, the taxpayers.   Items being covered in this meeting include:

4 - WISD informational presentation related to bond proposition, demographer figures and projections, and future land/facility planning

5 - City presentation of current growth figures, trends and active subdivisions; areas of anticipated future growth; and future infrastructure plans for roads, water and sewer

6 - Discuss concerns and opportunities to assist in managing growth and realizing future goals

This meeting is open to the public, should you wish to attend; however, given the location of the meeting, I'm not sure whether it will be live-streamed or not.
