City of Stafford Newsletter March 2024|
My fellow Staffordians,
As we all know, our City is very unique and I am very proud of it. We, the Council members and the employees, all together have helped contribute to the history of our great City. You have chosen the elected officials to make our City better and I am honored to have been elected Mayor 9 months ago. As your Mayor, I am continually inspired by the resilience and strength that defines our great community.
There are also times when we have to make difficult decisions, which comes with the territory. In every challenge we face, we have an opportunity to learn, grow, and emerge even stronger than before. I appreciate all the employees at the City of Stafford and their service to our City. They continue to give their best efforts day in and day out. As the upcoming election approaches, I encourage you all to exercise your right to have your voice heard by voting. Every vote matters. It is your voice, your opportunity to have a say in the decisions that impact our community.
I want to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to all the residents, businesses, and community organizations that have contributed to the positive growth and development of our City. Your hard work, dedication, and spirit of collaboration are what make our City truly special. As we look ahead to the future, I am confident that our City will continue to thrive and prosper.
Together, we will build on our successes, address challenges, and create an even brighter and more inclusive future for everyone. Thank you for being part of our City's journey and for your continued support. Let us all stand together and make our City better.
WE ARE STAFFORD STRONG

Hello Stafford,
I'm happy to report that Bombshells is having a lot of success. They have had a massive turnout so far and I am confident they will continue to bring in major numbers.
The Grid continues to grow with the addition of two new businesses, Tiff's Treats and Snooze, an A.M. Eatery. The luxury apartments also continue their progress, with the goal of having some of them occupied by summer.
The City of Stafford is also still waiting for more information on the possibility of getting a Super Target in The Grid that will have a grocery store inside the building.
