Royse City Town Hall Meeting Follow-Up

Making Royse City A Better Place

Inspired for those of us needing to know how we can make a difference. In these days of uncertainty, there are still ways in which we, as a whole, can band together, to make things better for all.

Royse City is built by the citizens, with a hand full of leaders that we vote into various offices. We depend on the candidates to act on our behalf. How can an entire city expect the leaders to do what we want them to do if we do not get involved?

On April 30th from 7:30pm to 10:00pm we will be having our Town Hall Meeting at the Royse City Middle School 1310 E. Hwy 66 Royse City, TX 75189.

Rather you are a long time Royse City Resident or a new one this is your chance to get acquainted with the candidates and to ask those questions that you would like answers to.

This meeting has a goal to help you the citizen to decide who to vote for, ask them questions, and hear their answers. Let them know what your concerns are and that you as a citizen are ready to help and support them.

This meeting is not a pep rally for your favorite candidate and it is not a debate for the candidates to point out weakness of other candidates. As each citizen enters the auditorium you will be handed an index card. You will write your question on the index card and turn it in to the volunteers that will be collecting these cards. If you want your question directed to a particular candidate you must reference that on your card. If the question is not directed to an individual it will be asked in general to candidates at random.
