H.R. No. 541

R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Proud residents of Sachse are gathering in Austin on
February 22, 2017, to celebrate Sachse Day at the State Capitol; and
WHEREAS, Situated in far northeastern Dallas County and
southern Collin County, the settlement was formed in 1886, when
William C. Sachse donated land to the Gulf, Colorado, and Santa Fe
Railway; the town received a post office that same year, registered
under the name Saxie, which was changed to Sachse in 1892; and
WHEREAS, The first Sachse school was constructed in the early
1900s, and the building doubled as the city hall and church;
economic development continued and the population grew steadily
after 1940, and Sachse's historic schools joined the Garland
Independent School District in a partnership that continues to
provide young Texans with quality educational opportunities; and
WHEREAS, By the 1980s, Sachse had developed into a suburb of
Garland, and residents today enjoy the numerous amenities offered
by the nearby city, including the Firewheel Town Center; moreover,
because of its proximity to the President George Bush Turnpike,
Sachse has remained an important transportation and business
center; and
WHEREAS, Honoring their heritage as they work to build an
even brighter future, the citizens of Sachse may take great pride in
the enduring role their community has played in the story of the
Lone Star State, and they are indeed deserving of special
recognition; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas
Legislature hereby recognize February 22, 2017, as Sachse Day at
the State Capitol and extend to the visiting delegation sincere
best wishes for a meaningful and memorable stay in Austin.
