Each Month Mayor Maso hosts a 'Coffee with the Mayor'. Its a very informal meeting where Mayor Maso will answer questions from Frisco Residents about anything pertaining to our wonder city. Typically, these meetings are held on the 5th floor of City Hall and there are between 20-30 attendees.
A few months back, Mayor Maso thought of changing up the scenery and hosting these meetings at various locations. The first time, the meeting was held at the Frisco Emergency Operations Center. For more information from about that meeting, check out the What Happened During "Coffee with the Mayor" post I wrote. It was a very educational meeting and brought in at least 60 attendees.
Well, this month the Mayor has decided to move the meeting to the North Texas Enterprise Center for Medical Technology (NTEC), which is located at 6170 Research Road in Frisco. if you are not familiar with NTEC - It is a non-profit, medical technology incubator program. This program is financed by the Frisco Economic Development Corporation (FEDC) and other private partners. In 2007, the EDC and City of Frisco issued a $10.8 million bond to build this fantastic facility. Now is your chance to get an inside look at what this bond has built.
Who: Frisco Residents (and anyone else of course)
When: Monday June 8th @ 8 am
Where: NTEC 6170 Research Rd - Frisco Texas
Come on out and learn about this fantastic 50,000 square foot facility that opened in November 2008. Learn about NTEC and of course, there will be time to talk with Mayor Maso about the growth and future of Frisco Texas.

John, I wish our area had a town to have a mayor(we are just an unincorporated area, there's no town of Spring). That's great that the mayor does this.
That's great that these meetings are still be held.
Marchel - The previous Mayor had a monthly meeting also, but it was not as informal. The meetings with Mayor Maso are very comfortable and informative. Since there is not agenda, we do tend to jump from subject to subject but we cover a lot of topics.
Donna - It has been a complete year and I think there were only 2 months that we did not meet. One month was due to it being an election month so I'm sure he was busy meeting with new members and the other month... who knows. They've all been informative and a lot of fun. The meetings where we visit other locations have been very successful so far.
Do they offer anything else other than coffee?
8am is just not a good time for me. I dont think it would ever be. Even if Boomer were older and headed for school, school wouldn't start until 845am. I guess this is not possible for me. Sad, sad.
John, We had these coffee with the mayor and at first it was just that with a few questions and answers. It became a press conference with no face time with the mayor...I like your city's concept...
Angelia - They serve Coffee and Donuts. No continental breakfast here. its all about the information.
Loreena - Thats too bad. I am sure you would really enjoy it.
Paul - Oh yeah, there is no press here. Well, I should not say that. There is not press at the meetings located at City Hall. The time we went to the Frisco Emergency Center there was a few photographers for the paper. They did not ask any questions though, just took notes of what was discussed. Not sure if thats just how it works out or not, but it does seem to be all about the residents.
Hi John, I hope a lot of people take advantage of this opportunity to learn more about NTEC, have coffee with the major, and do some networking!
Shirley - The last time he hosted the meeting off-site the attendance more than doubled. Hopefully it will be another solid turnout.
Water or soda was what I was going for.
HA. That makes more sense now Angelia. I thought you were looking for more stuff. Um, they serve water but there is not soda. Im sure we could request it and they would provide it.
