Budget Focused on Public Safety, Infrastructure Improvements, and Superior Service Levels
At a time when many municipalities are facing severe budget deficits, hiring freezes or layoffs, and a decrease in service levels, including the closing of libraries and other community facilities, Flower Mound is fortunate enough to have conservative leadership, fiscally responsible staff, and sound financial planning.
