At Monday’s City Council meeting, the Council continued its discussion from its March 9 meeting regarding clarifying the process for filling single vacancies on the Council.

The Senior Center will be closed March 30-31 so a deep cleaning can take place. The work is part of a scheduled effort to conduct comprehensive cleanings at the City’s recreation centers, going beyond routine maintenance and “after-hours” cleaning to focus on areas that experience heavy use or dust buildup. 

Texas will conduct a statewide test of its emergency alert systems on April 2 from 10 a.m.-12:30 p.m. You may receive a test alert on your phone, radio or television depending on your device settings and may hear outdoor warning sirens depending on your location at the time of the test.

Time is running out to register to vote in the May 2 Joint and Special election, which includes the Richardson Bond and Charter elections. Voter registration applications must be postmarked by Thursday, April 2 or brought in person to the county registrar’s office by end of business on that day in order to participate.

Due to Richardson City Council’s longstanding practice of not scheduling meetings on the fifth Monday of the month, there will be no City Council work session or meeting Monday, March 30. The City Council will next meet Monday, April 6 at 6 p.m.
