During the 2022 Texas Municipal League (TML) Annual Conference and Exhibition in San Antonio, the City of Taylor was one of three finalists for a 2022 Municipal Excellence Award in management innovations for cities under 25,000 in population.

The new system provides real-time access and data while streamlining resources by reducing the number of manual entries and calculations needed, officials said. 10/08/2022 08:57 AM
