Sorry for sending this agenda out a little late. Our family took a vacation and we just returned. It is nice to be home. I have said it before, and I will say it again: There is no place like Frisco! Also, it took a bit to get the logistics of sending out this agenda since I am no longer a sitting Council Member. Thanks to Mayor Pro Tem Dr. Jim Joyner and Deputy Mayor Pro Tem Joy West for sending me the agenda in text format for me to create this interactive agenda from.
July 4th is fast approaching. You have probably seen the notices that the City has sent out as well as heard it on KRLD, but just in case: This years Fourth of July Celebration is not to be missed. Make sure you visit www.friscofreedomfest.org for additional information. There are way too many events to list here, so take a look at the web site. My favorites are the Taste of Frisco and, of course, the largest Fireworks Display in Texas! Tip: Use the remote parking option and avoid the traffic.
Applications will be accepted through July 16th. Applicants must have resided in the City of Frisco for at least one year. For Additional information, visit this LINK. You can also call the City Secretary's office at 972-292-5113.
And yes, I am enjoying retired life. It has been "weird" not being on Council for the first time in 7 years. I hope to spend more time on the other boards I serve on and help some of our community partners and civic groups.
If you want to send your comments to the Mayor and current Council Members, you can send an e-mail to "mayorandcouncil@friscotexas.gov". This will reach all of them. Also, if you have my e-mail address as "mmaso@friscotexas.gov", you can change that to "mmaso@ncc.com".
I hope everyone enjoys their summer and I am looking forward to hearing your comments!
The Community Calendar is now fully operational! You can view it on my web site or directly at the calendar web site. You can also make your own additions (subject to review), so if you know of any community events, feel free to add them!
