PfCONA
was formed in 1985 by Pflugerville residents who wanted to provide a forum for
neighborhood groups to collectively air their concerns and work with the City Council to
resolve problems.
Its goal was to bring the community together. This goal continues today. Won't you join us
in "building the community together?" |

TOWN HALL MEETINGS/CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSIONS
Mayor Callen has been holding Town Hall
Meetings on various subjects, such as November 2004 meeting at Pflugerville Elementary on
"Finding a Niche - Marketing of Pflugerville". August 2004 meeting at library
was on "Development Options in Pflugerville".
Mayor Winton invited PfCONA members and their subdivision residents to participate in
community workshops offered during 2001 and 2002. In November 2001, citizens helped in a
Park Design Workshop and citizens were asked to support the efforts of the newly
formed Pflugerville Beautification Committee. In January 2002, the city held
Pflugerville Development Quest series of workshops.
As new developments in the city are planned, residents are being invited to play a role by
offering input by attending and/or participating in half-day, all-day, or one-hour council
work sessions before council meetings. Know that various learning sessions or speakers
often are featured at other organization meetings such as PfCONA and Greater Pflugerville
Chamber of Commerce (GPCC).
The following is a list of related activities
that have taken place:
Council Work Sessions have been
offered on the Downtown Master Plan, Capital Metro All Systems Go Long Range Planning
Effort, various city committees/commissions, and more. They take place from 6:30
p.m. to 7:30 p.m. before a Tuesday council meeting.
Envision Central Texas worked
with the City of Pflugerville to plan the future of its downtown neighborhood. Planning
well for the future means being part of the process, and Envision Central Texas included
71 residents' ideas about how the local community could be improved. Envision Central
Texas came to Park Crest Middle School on March 4 to discuss Pflugerville's future and
have individuals participate in a hands-on planning workshop. Click

The City of Pflugerville held its
first Pflugerville Development Quest, (PDQ) series, January 14th at City Hall, the
first of five monthly sessions designed to provide an opportunity for Pflugerville
citizens and City boards, commissions, and neighborhood associations to participate in
learning about the factors that shape Pflugerville's growth.
