Resident Sector Map. We’ve divided our area into geographic sectors so all parts of the plan area have a voice

We want to thank John Michael Cortez, representing Cap Metro, and Michael Casias, owner of Esperanza Development Co., for their service on the ECC Leadership Team representing non-profits and businesses.  These gentlemen agreed to step down because it became difficult for them to attend our monthly meetings.  John Michael has a new baby to tend to though we really enjoyed little Isabella attending our meetings. He will continue to be our neighborhood liaison with Metro. Michael’s work developing affordable housing is taking him out of town more frequently but he has vowed to stay active with our efforts as his time allows.  Know that we all appreciated your insights and the respect you showed for our neighborhood plan goals. Hasta la vista, amigos!
