As members of a guest panel stood together for a picture following Frisco’s State of the City luncheon Wednesday, it was fitting that former Mayor Bob Warren would be holding a pair of ceremonial ribbon-cutting scissors from 1989.
It signified the message the panel members had conveyed to a packed conference room at Embassy Suites Hotel just a few minutes earlier: Frisco’s success is a result of standing on the shoulders of those who came before.
Members of the Frisco Chamber of Commerce listened as Warren, Sam Roach, who served on the city’s first Economic Development Corporation Board of Directors, Councilman Will Sowell, Chris Kleinert, CEO of Hunt Consolidated Investments, and later Mayor Jeff Cheney each gave their perspective of where the city is, where it’s been and where it may be in the future.
