MAYOR AND COUNCIL ACCEPT TML AWARD FROM DEPARTMENTS

The Mayor and City Council were presented with the TML Award that was awarded to city staff at the 2009 TML Conference in October.  (From left to right) Community Development Director Barry Shelton, Officer Garry Jordan, Police Chief Dennis Veach, Mayor Mike Felix, and City Manager Allen Barnes officially recognized the award on behalf of Council.  The program, Sachse's Builder Permit Crime Prevention Packet, was the "brain child" of Office Jordan, who worked previously in the construction industry.  The packets were developed with builders in mind and are distributed by the Community Development Department with each building permit issued.  It has slowed and deterred thefts from new home construction sites in Sachse and shows how several different departments can work together to achieve a single goal.  Great job everyone!!
