SYAC Report
SYAC met with the 2030 Team throughout the year to give their input
on the future of Southlake. The meetings included learning about the
2030 plan and what it entails and giving their feedback and opinions
about what they want to see in Southlake. There was clear consensus

S.Y.A.C. Meets with the Mayor
The Mayor of Southlake came to speak to SYAC at
the December 2nd meeting. Mayor Terrell spoke
about his involvement in city government and
answered questions about traffic issues in
Southlake, the city’s role with the school district
and also the need for a cultural/multipurpose
center in Southlake. The mayor also addressed the
teen issue in Town Square and that a center
would provide an outlet for pre‐teens teenagers
rather than them flooding Town Square.
