New mayor of Poetry thanks Kaufman County for support
Summary
Mike Jaffe, introduced as the new mayor of the City of Poetry, thanked Kaufman County commissioners for interlocal support and asked for continued cooperation as the town develops.
The court introduced Mike Jaffe as the new mayor of the City of Poetry. Jaffe thanked the commissioners and county staff for support — including interlocal agreements and assistance from the sheriff and constable — and said the town currently lacks a municipal property tax and has limited resources while it establishes municipal operations.
He expressed appreciation for the court's willingness to assist Poetry during its "maturing phase," and said he looks forward to working with county officials and learning from them.
The judge and commissioners welcomed Jaffe to the courtroom and pledged to cooperate on shared services where practicable.
