City of Chico, Texas
Letter from the Mayor
A lot has happened since we last visted. The new sewer plant is complete
and in operation, It is more efficient to operate than the old one and is
designed to expand as we grow.
Additions and improvements have been to the park. The skate park is a big hit
with kids of all ages. A new fence has been added around the perimeter and
additional parking is going to be added on the East side of the park.
The Fire Department has recently added some new equipment to improve the
efficiency and ability of our Fire Department. A new engine and grass truck
were purchased. The city should be proud of our firemen and let them know
every chance we get. Some new auto accident rescue epuipment has been
donated by one of our citizens.
The Economic Development Corporation has purchased property for a new
Industrial Park and are now working with two businesses to move into it.
We have some new faces at City Hall, Trish Payne is the new City Secretary.
We welcome her and look forward to a long relationship. Beverly O'Dell has
also joined the Street Department.
We also have two new Council members; Aracely Delgado and Fletta Barrett,
back to the Council. We look forward to working with them. Council member,
Larry Whitaker resigned. he has been an asset to the City and the Council for
nine years. He will be missed. It is strange to look to my right and no longer
see him. We wish him luck.
That should be enough for now so until next time, don't forget to tell a City
employee "Thanks" for what they do.
James Robinson
Mayor
