Highland Village is 60!
We are commemorating our 60th anniversary throughout the year with several different campaigns. First, the City is asking the community to share any photos you have from the last 60 years that tell Highland Village’s story. We have received some awesome photos of families enjoying Highland Village and would love to see yours! If you have photos you would like to share, please send them to info@highlandvillage.org and include your name, approximately when the photo was taken and a little something about the picture. We will share these photos throughout the year via social media and other outlets. We’re also sharing 60 facts about Highland Village throughout the year and Mayor Jaworski will post a monthly video with some historical facts and fun trivia. We are proud of the community Highland Village has grown into and believe our founding fathers would be as well. Let’s have some fun commemorating 60 years of Highland Village and, who knows, we all might learn some things about this city we call home.

We are heading into severe weather season for Texas and along with that comes severe thunderstorms and possible heavy rains.
Don’t underestimate the power and force of water. Remember, it’s never safe to drive or walk into any kind of flood waters.
- Just six inches of swiftly moving water can sweep you off your feet. If flowing water is above your ankles, stop, turn around, and go another way.
- If you are caught on a flooded road and waters are rising rapidly around you, get out of the car quickly and move to higher ground. Most cars can be swept away by less than two feet of moving water.
- Danger can lurk in the water: downed lines or other debris may not be easily visible. If you see a downed line, move at least ten feet away from it – or anything touching it. If you’re driving and your car comes in contact with a downed line, stay in your car.
Don’t let floods, thunderstorms, or tornadoes take you by surprise this season. Be prepared and stay weather aware.

April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month and it is a united effort to recognize the dangers and eliminate preventable deaths from distracted driving. Distraction can come in many forms. Texting, using navigation apps, eating and drinking, grooming, reading, talking to passengers or changing the radio station. Even just thinking about other things, other than the task at hand, can cause distraction. Most people know not to drink and drive, but that’s not true for distracted driving. It is the leading factor in most crashes and it is 100% preventable so don’t get distracted, just drive. | |
