HomeMy WebLinkAboutEuless Today Winter 1999/Spring 2000Greetings from Your Mayor
Dear Citizens:
Happy Holidays to each and every
one. The excitement of vacation, parties,
religious services, choirs, festive
decorations, and family gatherings make for
a wonderful season of sharing and good will
to others. Our city Christmas Parade is
scheduled for Saturday, December 11, and
I hope to see many of you there.
We are combining two of our city publications, the Mayor's
Newsletter and The Star, into one comprehensive magazine citizens
can use to reference city information and activities in our city. This
magazine will be published four times a year, and we hope you like
the new look.
We thank every citizen that exercised their privilege of voting
in the Motor Vehicle Rental Tax election. With the passage of this tax
collection on short-term rental cars, the City of Euless anticipates
collecting about three million dollars a year. We expect the new
Consolidated Rental Car facility at the airport to open in late spring.
This is truly a win-win for all.
We especially want to thank the citizens of the Education
Committee for all the tireless, long hours and diligent work they
volunteered to help pass this election. As we have said many times
before, volunteers are our best assets!
We have included the names of the newly appointed Board and
Commission members. These citizens will volunteer their time and
talents to better serve our community. We appreciate those who
serve and all the board members who have served us so well in the
past. Thank you, thank you.
Finally, after much preparation, we are starting our new
courts and police building on Highway 10. This project will take
approximately eighteen months to complete, but it is one you will
be proud of for many years to come.
For the sixth consecutive year, we will have Town Hall meetings
in January and February. These meetings are open to all citizens,
and we hold them in the four corners of the city. This is a great
opportunity for you to get to know your city council members and
city staff members. We have open question and answer sessions,
and we welcome new ideas and suggestions.
Our city library continues to offer more and more
activities for all ages. Our citizens can choose from books, videos,
musical programs, book reviews, educational programs, business
information, and many children's activities. The new teen
section has been well received, and we continue to receive kudos
for our genealogy section. There are special holiday presentations
scheduled, so come and enjoy.
As this millennium comes to a close, we need to look back
and review all the accomplishments made in our City. We are
recognized as a progressive, dynamic, and growing city that is
respected by others for our government, services, athletics, parks,
library, churches, schools, infrastructure, and our development. As
we move into the new millennium, I encourage each of you to
join together to Build a Better Tomorrow for our future citizens.
May you share many blessings in the coming year.

Euless Selects New Economic
Development Director
xperience, knowledge and familiarity with
development in the City of Euless were
leading factors for the selection of Andrea
Baxter as the new Director of Economic
Development. Baxter has been an instrumental
player on the Euless team for seven years, having
contributed to the success of many projects including
the building of the Texas Star Conference Centre, the
construction of the Parks at Texas Star Athletic Center,
the updating of water and wastewater master plans,
and the demolition of Western Hills Inn.
Baxter graduated from Texas A & M University
with an Engineering degree and has been involved
in the processes of building and designing
developments since she began her career as a Project
Manager and Engineer. She began her tenure in
Euless as the Assistant City Engineer and has been a
significant contributor to the completion of several
projects including federal ISTEA projects. By
contributing to the development of projects from
the infrastructure to completion (from both private
to public perspectives), Baxter knows the importance
of working with developers on both new and
revitalization projects.
"Having been a part of the exceptional team in
Euless, I'm very excited about tackling this new role
in Economic Development, yet being able to remain
on the same team as a different player," said Andrea
Baxter, P.E. "The opportunities are abundant for
