During a recent city council meeting, City Manager Eric provided an update on upcoming community events, notably the 2024 World Heritage Festival and the \"Music Under the Stars\" series. The festival, now in its ninth year, aims to celebrate the city's cultural heritage and will feature various performances, encouraging residents to participate in the festivities.

Council Member Villageran highlighted the importance of community engagement, inviting fellow council members and residents to join the celebrations. Attendees received promotional items, including shirts featuring the Alamo, to promote local heritage sites. Villageran emphasized the significance of supporting community initiatives and recognized the contributions of several individuals involved in organizing the festival.

Additionally, Villageran reminded the council that September is National Senior Center Month, urging members to visit local senior centers and share their experiences. This initiative aims to acknowledge the essential role these centers play in the lives of older adults in the community. The council is encouraged to bring back stories from their visits for discussion in a future executive session.
