Message from the City Manager

Citizens of Everman,

The City Council and City Administration are making every effort to improve the City of Everman. Efforts are underway to improve the City’s physical infrastructure while building our economic infrastructure. Several new businesses have recently opened their doors in the City including Aaron Ornamental Iron Works, La Valentina Mexican Restaurant, Neveria Dariela Ice Cream Shop, and most recently, Real Deal Pawn and Jewelry. The shopping center at 1837 Everman Parkway is being renovated to provide space for additional businesses. The 4-year capital project for rebuilding our streets is in its third year, and while the weather has slowed the progress, we are making major improvements with the help of our friends at the county. The infrastructure of our Water System is being reviewed for possible improvements. Many of our water meters need replacement, auxiliary backup power units are being considered, and the water management computer system is being updated.

Moving our City into the 21st century will help attract new businesses, which helps increase our tax base, which ultimately will allow us to reduce your property tax rates. At the same time, this will increase your property resale values. If you have any suggestions you would like to make to assist in moving the City forward, please address them to me at City Hall.

Michael H. Box
City Manager
