Hello Friends!
I hope y'all are doing well! We don't have a lot of meetings going on this week, but we'll make up for that next week. I would, however, like to let you know about the special election that is happening right now to replace Jake Ellzey, who was our House District 10 representative since he won his Congressional race. Early voting runs this week and election day will be on 08/31/21.

***Please note, that those who wish to speak at the public hearing regarding the city's tax rate, that the meeting will also be on Tuesday, 08/31/21 at 6:00 PM. *** I'll be sure to mention more on that in next week's newsletter.
We only have the Planning & Zoning commission briefing and meeting scheduled for this week, but in case there are any additional meetings scheduled after this newsletter goes out, you can always refer back to the city's calendar: https://www.waxahachie.com/calendar.php

17 & 18 - A public hearing continued from the previous meeting regarding a 7- Eleven store located at 1851 N Hwy 77. Staff is recommending approval.
19 & 20 - A public hearing continued from the previous meeting regarding a zoning change from a planned development- general retail to a planned development- multifamily 2 located at 809 Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd. Staff has several issues with this project but is recommending denial due to the lack of emergency access to the site.
