Yesterday, the @CityofLeander was proud to officially welcome @HomeDepot to our community. It was great to join members of Council past and present, as well as welcome nearby Liberty Hill Councilman Tim Hennessy and State Senator @PeteFlores_TX to our city for this event! The opening of this new location marks an exciting milestone for our city, as it is the LARGEST Home Depot store in the entire State of Texas. This project represents a significant investment in Leander and reflects the continued growth, demand, and commercial momentum happening in our community. As Leander continues to grow, projects like this help expand retail options, create jobs, and strengthen the services available to residents, contractors, and businesses across the region. We appreciate The Home Depot team for choosing Leander and are excited to see this new store officially open its doors! #LeanderTX #EconomicDevelopment #RetailGrowth #LeanderEconomicDevelopment #CentralTexas

GAME 2 IS OURS!!!!!

I'm humbled and honored to announce that I've been selected to be part of the upcoming civilian cohort for the 71st annual U.S. Army War College ⭐️ (@us_awc) National Security Seminar (NSS), to be held in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, the first week of June 2026! The NSS is designed to heighten USAWC students' understanding of the society they serve and the interests, issues, and trends that influence the formulation of national security policy. At the same time, NSS civilian attendees will gain a better understanding of the perspectives and concerns of the defense community. The War College is the Army’s center for strategic thought and delivers senior-level professional education to personnel from all the Armed Forces and select civilian national security professionals. Over this week, I'm excited to hear and learn from distinguished speakers covering varied topics such as the challenges of civil-military relations, the role of domestic politics in national security, globalization, foreign policy, international security issues and the future role of the United States. #NationalSecurity #USArmyWarCollege #NSS2026 #StrategicLeadership #PublicPolicy #CarlisleBarracks

Exciting news! The @CityofLeander's Development Services Department continues to improve its processes to provide faster, more efficient service to the development community! As of April 10, 2026, the processing schedule for various application types (such as subdivision, zoning, site development, and CIP, among others) will be enhanced. Instead of waiting for the weekly Wednesday review cycle, staff will now review these applications as soon as they are submitted. This change will help reduce turnaround times and allow staff to respond more quickly to incoming requests. Applications subject to statutory shot clock requirements will continue to follow their existing schedule and are not affected by this update.

I was honored to join fellow members of Council today as we hosted U.S. Congressman @PeteSessions, showed him around the @CityofLeander, and highlighted the challenges, needs, and priorities (including water, transportation, public safety, economic development, etc.) that we face as one of our state and nation’s fastest growing cities. Congressman Sessions will represent a section of south Leander following the next elections based on newly redrawn Congressional Districts. Thank you to the Congressman’s staff, Todd Parton our City Manager, and our City Staff for making today’s meeting a success! We look forward to continued dialogue and partnership with the Congressman’s office as we work towards a better and brighter future for Leander. #LeanderTX #wilco #travis #local #state #federal #Congress

With all precincts reporting in the Republican Primary for Williamson County, David McDonald is the front runner to be our next Commissioner for Precinct 2 (Cedar Park, Leander and Liberty Hill) with 46% of the vote, despite being outspent 6:1. I’m so proud of my friends David and Kate. This result wouldn’t have been possible without their incredible work ethic, integrity, spirit of service, as well as team of grassroots supporters who never stopped believing in the mission. Onwards to the runoff on May 26! 🤠 #primary #wilco #county #election2026
