Magoffin Home/ 'How El Paso Works'

Magoffin Home/ 'How El Paso Works'

Saturday, June 10th, 2:00PM-3:00PM: How El Paso Works: “Tech H2O”
When Joseph Magoffin helped write the articles of Incorporation for El Paso, he helped shape the modern city. In this series, we will compare Joseph’s vision for El Paso to what is has become in the last 150 years. Guest speakers from municipal agencies will be invited to speak about their departments and let us know why and when we might need to call upon them to help us keep El Paso thriving.
This session, we will discuss the duties of City Council with a city representative of El Paso and compare it to duties Joseph would have had as a city alderman in early El Paso. There will be a question-and-answer portion of this event that is intended to help us understand what we should expect of our representatives. This is a series meant to help us all become more aware of and confident in using city services available to us all and to celebrate 150 years of being an incorporated city in Texas. Call in advance to 915-533-5147, ext. 1002, to register.
