The Little Elm Town Council completed several ceremonial and recognition items during its May 2025 meeting, including administering the oath of office, presenting youth council members and issuing proclamations.
Tony Steen took the oath and the town clerk certified the election for the office of council member Place 2. Following the oath, Steen thanked family and supporters and said he was grateful for another opportunity to serve on the council.
The council also presented certificates and recognition for the mayor's math challenge and honor roll of dual-enrollment graduates; staff identified the top math challenge participants and distributed certificates of recognition to several students. The council announced that 13 students had been selected to serve on the Little Elm Youth Council; staff said the program will begin meeting in August and that members come from multiple area schools, including Little Elm High School and other district or private schools.
Two proclamations were presented and read aloud. The council proclaimed May 2025 as Neurofibromatosis (NF) Awareness Month, noting local families affected by the condition and commending the Children's Tumor Foundation and local advocates. The council also designated the week of May 18 through May 24, 2025 as National Public Works Week and praised public works professionals for their role maintaining infrastructure and public health.
The consent agenda for the meeting was approved by council voice vote earlier in the session with no recorded opposition.
