Summary
The Balch Springs Type B Economic Development Corporation elected Wanda Adams as president after the prior chair resigned. The board also voted to add Christopher Watson as vice president during the same meeting.
Wanda Adams was elected president of the Balch Springs Community and Economic Development Corporation (Type B) during the board’s regular meeting on April 8, 2026. The nomination of Adams was made from the floor and approved by roll-call vote.
Board members moved promptly to fill leadership roles after the previous chair resigned to take a city council seat. A board member said, “I would like to nominate Wanda Adams,” and the motion was seconded and carried. The clerk conducted the roll call and the motion passed. The board followed with a separate nomination and unanimous vote to install Christopher Watson as vice president.
