My Fellow Cueroites: At the regular May City Council meeting, myself, and Councilmen Terry Glover and Tony Allen were sworn in to another two-year term. I can’t believe how fast my first term as your mayor flew by.
On Wednesday, May 6, I represented the City of Cuero at the Stevenson Unit’s Fallen Officer ceremony. The National Day of Prayer was celebrated on Thursday, May 7, with a reading of prayers under the Cuero Public Library pavilion.
