Last night during the meeting, the Town Council and I unanimously appointed Wade Carroll to the role of Town Manager effective July 1, 2021. 

Wade Carroll is an accomplished leader and has a proven track record here in Trophy Club. He has led our community successfully before, and that’s why the Town Council is confident he’s the right person to do so now.

Wade knows our town well and has a straightforward, hands-on management style. His impeccable work ethic fits well with our Council, community and staff, and we’re elated to have him as our Town Manager. You can read more about Wade's appointment HERE.

Please join me in congratulating Wade! We are very excited to have him in this new role and look forward to continuing the Town's positive momentum forward.

Sincerely,


Mayor Alicia Fleury

Congresswoman Beth Van Duyne has announced a North Texas Job Fair hosted by her office at the Irving Convention Center on July 15, 2021 from 1-6 PM. The Congresswoman will be joined by over 40 State Representatives, State Senators, and local bipartisan Mayors, including myself. 

I’m excited to co-host the North Texas Job Fair on July 15th! Almost every business owner I know has spoken to me about their need for employees. As unemployment benefits end June 26th, we are supporting North Texas to reconnect as many people as we can with jobs.

There will be more than 130 businesses in the area participating such as Toyota, Amazon and American Airlines who are all looking to hire employees. Details here: https://bit.ly/3xI4Hmu

I hope to see you there!

Well, this may have been the wettest May in our history according to some sources, regardless it was a lot of rain.

Former Mayor Marshall Engelbeck passed away, he had a storied volunteer career that included being a Council Member and our Mayor. When Marshall and Ronnie moved back to Trophy Club it was around the corner from us and I spent many hours with them reliving the history and beginning of Trophy Club. The Town issued a wonderful proclamation and it is available to read HERE. Janet and I wish Ronnie send our deepest sympathy and wish her all the best going forward.

We received an update from the Trophy Club Woman’s Club highlighting their Mother’s Day weekend Art and Garden Festival and what a great success it was. It was a fun time and TCWC plans on making their Art and Garden Festival an ANNUAL Mother’s Day Weekend event in Trophy Club.

Aloft Hotel located in the Trophy Club Town Square (Clock Tower) area received their alcohol permit and will be opening in the coming months, they plan on making their bar an open air style and gallery deck with a happy hour that sounds fantastic. It will be called WXYZ, best friends hangout spot. They are having a Muralist of the Year Contest with prizes, if you know of anyone that may be interested here is the website to visit:

The Aloft location along with the opening of Blue 22 Sports Grill (a sports bar) and Wing Stop located in the same shopping center and the soon to open “The Trophy Table” in the former Breadwinners location will make staying in Trophy Club that much easier.

A preliminary plat was approved for the former gas well site located at Trophy Club Dr. and Bobcat Boulevard lots will be a minimum size of 12,000 sq.ft.

May Proclamations:

• Trophy Club ranked the #1 Safest City in Texas
• Police week of May 9-15 and
• Peace Officer’s Memorial Day
• Mental Health Awareness Month
• Patriotic Meaning of Memorial Day

Our Mayor and fellow Council Members would like to welcome Dennis Sheridan as the newest Council Member for Place 1 and welcome back Karl Monger Place 4 to the Council as well.

Until next time, see you around the Town.

Mayor Pro Tem Greg Lamont
