R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, On March 5, 2003, a delegation of Eagle Pass

as the director of the Maverick County Development Corporation as 
well as president and treasurer of both the Eagle Pass Athletic

founder of the Barrera Heights Project and was instrumental in 
bringing Southwest Texas Junior College to Eagle Pass in 1972; and
	WHEREAS, The youth of Maverick County also hold a special

baseball and soccer teams in the community and contributions to the 
annual livestock show, which benefits local 4-H and FFA students; 
and
	WHEREAS, Named Citizen of the Year in Maverick County in 
1996, Mr. Barrera has won the respect of his community and serves as
