R E S O L U T I O N

WHEREAS, Members of the Westlake Chamber of Commerce are

visiting the State Capitol on April 30, 2025; and

WHEREAS, Serving West Lake Hills, Rollingwood, and Austin,

the Westlake Chamber of Commerce was first organized on June 29,

1995, by members of the Eanes Business and Professional Association

who were seeking to cultivate a sense of community and to help area

businesses address issues of safety, crime, and economic growth;

and

WHEREAS, The chamber started out as a group of 50 volunteers,

but by the time it held its first fundraiser in October 1995, its

membership had grown to 110; the organization initially devoted its

efforts to such projects as the construction of The Village at

Westlake Shopping Center and the widening of Bee Cave Road, and it

also began holding monthly luncheons featuring presentations by

community leaders; and

WHEREAS, Now in its 30th year, the Westlake Chamber of

Commerce supports local business leaders through networking

events, ribbon-cutting ceremonies, business builder lunches and

breakfasts, and a leadership academy; moreover, the chamber remains

dedicated to strengthening the wider community, organizing

quarterly humanitarian efforts and hosting a variety of notable

events, such as its 4th of July parade and Westlake Wonderfest; and

WHEREAS, The Westlake Chamber of Commerce has played an

important role in enhancing the area's economic vitality and

quality of life, and all those associated with the organization may

take pride in their contributions to the Lone Star State; now,

therefore, be it

RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 89th Texas

Legislature hereby recognize April 30, 2025, as Westlake Chamber

Day at the State Capitol and extend a warm welcome to the visiting

delegation.
