TOWN OF WESTLAKE HONORED FOR TRANSPARENCY The Town of Westlake was one of the first four cities to earn the prestigious 2016 Texas Comptroller’s Transparency Star for Traditional Finances. Opening financial books to the public, providing clear and consistent pictures of spending and sharing information with taxpayers in a userAG - April 2016.pdf 1 3/23/16 1:26 PM friendly format are some of the reasons the town was commended.
CARROLL GRAD NAMED BACK-TO-BACK NATIONAL CHAMPION Former Dragon and Lady Bear, Kelci Ortiz, has a big reason to jump for joy: She’s a back-to-back national champion in acrobatics and tumbling (A&T), and she’s a recent Baylor University grad to boot. Over the course of a season, Baylor competes in 10 meets over the country. The top teams go to nationals, and over the course of four days, compete in quarterfinals and semifinals. The last two teams compete for the title of National Champions. Event finals also take place where individual events are held at nationals. Ortiz competed in two of the event finals this year and won both for a total of four national titles. MEDIANS, EXPANSION UNDERWAY ON STATE HIGHWAY 26 Over the summer, TxDOT continued the reconstruction of State Highway 26 in Colleyville into a six-lane road with curbed medians from John McCain Road to Brown Trail. Slated for completion in 2018, it’s the city’s largest construction project to date. James Hubbard serves as the SH26 project coordinator for the City of Colleyville, providing support for citizens, business owners and property owners throughout the project. Colleyville hosts monthly informational meetings to provide updates and gather feedback.
