You pay property taxes every year — but do you actually know where that money goes or what it’s doing for Parker County?
Join us for an engaging, no-fluff membership luncheon that pulls back the curtain on how property tax dollars are used locally — from schools and public safety to infrastructure and economic growth. This isn’t a policy lecture. It’s a real conversation with local leaders who make decisions that directly impact your business, your property value, and your quality of life.
Our panel will tackle the questions everyone asks but rarely gets answered:
Why do taxes keep rising?
What stays local — and what doesn’t?
Are we investing wisely as Parker County grows?
Whether you’re a business owner, homeowner, or community leader, you’ll leave with clarity, context, and a better understanding of whether property taxes are simply a burden — or a smart investment in the place we live and work.
And yes — there will be a great lunch:
🍽️ Baked Parmesan Ranch Chicken, mixed veggies, salad, and dessert by Brenda’s Catering.
