2025 TML Small Town Conference

The TML Small Town Conference is designed for city officials and staff who serve towns and cities in Texas with a population of 15,000 or less. The small city-focused sessions and opportunities to network will create momentum that can lead to better planning and a stronger community.

Join us in Fredericksburg to learn and connect with other leaders across Texas who, like you, are working to build and support vibrant small cities. We’ll talk about:

• The power of emotional intelligence
• Economic development tools available to Texas cities
• Sorting out timing issues on land use
• Nuisance abatement and code enforcement
• Effective retail recruitment strategies
• Legislative update on bills that may impact your community
• Leadership qualities of self-sacrifice, service, and trust
• Legal challenges and issues for small cities
