This Week in Rowlett - April 15, 2024
2024 Rowlett Bond Election
Ever wondered what the Rowlett City Council might look like in a galaxy far, far away? You have see our latest creative endeavor, a delightfully no-budget Star Wars-inspired parody, starring our very own city council members! This homage to the classic sci-fi movie premiered at our first Bond Election Public Meeting last Thursday night, and it's a must-watch.
