Government
BY DON MUNSCH
Cheryl Moore begins role as Flower Mound’s new mayor Cheryl Moore was elected Flower Mound mayor on May 4. She has lived in the town for 18 years and previously served on its Planning and Zoning Commission and Transportation Commission. Community Impact spoke with Moore about a number of issues. This interview has been edited for clarity and length. What did you learn from the planning and zoning, and transportation commissions that can help you as the mayor? You learn the processes. Learning more the intri- cacies of the town, the development standards of the town, more of the master plan, speci cs on the streets, the technology—that really helps. I can have more conversations on the dais as mayor than I could have maybe three years ago.
What do you like most about Flower Mound? I think the parks and trails are great because you have every kind of trail. You have the hard-paved trails, and you have the dirt trails. [Lake Grape- vine] is right here. It’s a big town with everything you could want, but it has that small-town feel. What changes would you like to see? The River Walk is a big deal for me, [as is] the west side of Flower Mound, what amenities are going into that development, and then just that
community engagement as we grow. How do you approach being mayor?
Being a health care practitioner sets me apart from previous mayors. Just because I have so much experience in health care, I align well with all of our emergency services. Having that connect with people that I’ve always had with patient care—like a compassion for people—not that anybody doesn’t have it, but it’s just connectivity that I’m so used to on a daily basis—connecting with families, with people in need. I feel like that’s going to bring a di erent perspective.
