Living in a small town has a lot of benefits. One of them is the ability to impact the quality of life by volunteering.
Team Daniel volunteers to post messages on the sign at City Hall.
Those positive and inspiring messages you see?
Courtesy of Team Daniel!
The city’s office staff, Bernie, Elaine, and Diane, chipped in and gave them Easter baskets full of goodies in appreciation of their contributions to our community.
Thank you Team Daniel!
At Monday night’s City Council Meeting, I had the pleasure of swearing in our new Municipal Court Clerk, Diane Stokes.
Diane and her husband Alan have been residents of Shoreacres for 13 years. She comes to us from the city of El Lago and has many years of experience in city government. Diane’s city email address is dstokes@shoreacrestx.us.
Please join me in welcoming Diane to the team!
Our biannual heavy trash pickup starts on Monday, November 13th and will continue all week.
It is highly recommended that you have your items for pickup out by Monday morning. Once the truck passes down your street it will not circle back.
Remember to separate your items into two piles. One is for vegetation and the other is for trash.
As usual, the truck will not pick up construction debris, tires, vehicles, etc. Refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners, etc must have the freon removed and tagged by a professional.
If you have any questions, contact Bernie at City Hall at 281-471-2244.
