Royse City Main Street outlines downtown events, small‑business incubation and patriotic projects
Summary
Main Street staff reviewed downtown revitalization achievements, listed upcoming events (farmers market, bridal nights, car show, concert) and said Latham Bakery is negotiating to use a newly purchased building as an incubator space.
A Main Street presenter highlighted Royce City's long participation in the Texas Main Street program and walked through a slate of downtown activities and small‑business initiatives. "Since 2008, Roy City has been a proud Texas Main Street city," the presenter said, and described the program's focus on preserving historic downtown buildings while encouraging new businesses.
The presenter listed concrete items: Sweet Frog estimated to open in June; Latham Bakery is negotiating to occupy Building 114 (purchased by the CDC) as an incubator space; a farmers market will kick off April 11 (8 a.m.–noon) at Pennington parking and run 2nd and 4th Saturdays through September; and a new car show is scheduled for May 9 (9:00–2:30). Officials also noted a patriotic fire hydrant painting project in collaboration with Royse City ISD and a city ornament release in June.
