H.R. No. 789
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Many proud residents of Mansfield are visiting
Austin on March 4, 2015, to celebrate the distinctive attributes
and achievements of their community during Mansfield Day at the
State Capitol; and
WHEREAS, Located in the Cross Timber country of North Central
Texas, south of Arlington, the settlement was first established by
pioneers in the 1840s; in the late 1850s, R. S. Man and Julian Feild
built a gristmill in the area, at the crossroads that later became
the center of the town, which was named for the two men; and
WHEREAS, Mr. Feild soon added a general store across the
street from the mill and became the town's postmaster in 1860;
during the Civil War, the Man and Feild gristmill supplied meal and
flour to fighting soldiers, and it later did the same for those at
United States Army outposts and Indian reservations in Texas and
New Mexico; though incorporated in 1909, the town remained a
farming community until the suburban expansion of the Dallas/Fort
Worth area brought many new residents; and
WHEREAS, Today, the city's more than 60,000 residents can
enjoy 240 acres of parks and a quality of life reflected in the
town's inclusion on Money magazine's 2012 list of the top places to
live in the United States; and
WHEREAS, Mansfield will be led in 2015 by the members of its
city council, including Mayor David Cook and Mayor Pro Tempore
Larry Broseh, as well as Brent Newsom, Stephen Lindsey, Darryl
Haynes, Cory Hoffman, and Wendy Burgess; also committed to the
town's well-being are members of the Mansfield Area Chamber of
Commerce, including its executive committee, Rob Schulz, Bry Acker,
Joanie Pace, Grant Hall, David Harris, Kevin Allee, Leigh Ann
Tipping, and Dan Phillips, its other directors, Monty Goddard,
Angel Biasatti, Michelle Canton, Jenny Conrad, Mike Leasor, Omar
Pineda, Karen Tecklenburg, Katie Watson, Brendan Kelly, Louis J.
Stefanos, and Jim Milligan, and its ex officio directors, Tom
Blanton, Clayton Chandler, Dr. Jim Vaszauskas, and Scott Welmaker;
and
WHEREAS, This charming town is an outstanding place in which
to live, work, and raise a family, and its citizens may indeed take
great pride in their heritage and ongoing achievements; now,
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas
Legislature hereby recognize March 4, 2015, as Mansfield Day at the
State Capitol and extend to members of the visiting delegation
sincere best wishes for an enjoyable and memorable event.
