is moving its headquarters to Frisco; and
WHEREAS, The result of a groundbreaking public-private

will include a 500-room Omni Hotel resort, a 127,000-square-foot
conference center, a state-of-the-art retail village, parks and
open space, and several miles of walking trails; and
WHEREAS, Rated by Money magazine in 2018 as the "Best Place
to Live" in the nation, Frisco is thriving, and this new addition
to the city promises to make significant contributions to the
community; now, therefore, be it
