R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, The City of Fate has been named the recipient of a
2021 Community Economic Development Award from the Southern
Economic Development Council; and
WHEREAS, Each year, the SEDC presents this accolade to a
select number of cities and towns for innovation and excellence in
economic development; Fate received top honors in the category for
communities with populations from 5,001 to 15,000 and was nominated
for the recognition after receiving a Community Economic
Development Award from the Texas Economic Development Council in
2020; and
WHEREAS, Among the fastest-growing communities in the
Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, Fate earned the award for its
mixed-use development project, The Villages at Fate, which
encompasses 18 apartments and approximately 7,000 square feet of
retail, restaurant, and entertainment space; the project serves as
an anchor for the city's revitalized downtown and has been
financially beneficial for the community, creating jobs and
increasing property values; and
WHEREAS, The City of Fate has earned well-deserved praise for
its strong commitment to growth and prosperity, and area residents
may indeed take pride in this prestigious recognition; now,
therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas

Fate on its receipt of a 2021 Community Economic Development Award
from the Southern Economic Development Council and extend to the
