H.R. No. 747

	R E S O L U T I O N
	WHEREAS, Proud residents of San Diego, Texas, are visiting
	Austin on March 8, 2017, to celebrate San Diego Day at the State
	Capitol; and
	WHEREAS, In the early 1800s, Julián Flores and his son
	Ventura received two land grants from the Spanish government, and
	in 1819, the Flores family authorized the founding of what became
	known as Perezville; when a post office was established in 1852, the
	town was renamed, and when Duval County was organized nearly 25
	years later, San Diego was designated the county seat; and
	WHEREAS, With the arrival of the Corpus Christi, San Diego,
	and Rio Grande Railroad in 1879, and later the Texas-Mexican
	Railway, San Diego proved to be an important agricultural shipping
	center, particularly for wool and cotton; today, the local economy
	is supported by small businesses, ranching and hunting, and the oil
	industry, and growth has extended the city limits into Jim Wells
	County; and
	WHEREAS, San Diego is a general-rule city, ably led by its
	elected officials, which include mayor Sally Lichtenberger, mayor
	pro tempore Shelly Gaitan, and city council members Ricky Munoz,
	Rolando T. Guerrero, Janie Lopez, and Margarito Maldonado III;
	Aleida Luera currently serves as the city director; and
	WHEREAS, The people of San Diego are building on a long
	tradition of industry and achievement, and they may indeed be proud
	of their notable contributions to the story of the Lone Star State;
	now, therefore, be it
	RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 85th Texas
	Legislature hereby recognize March 8, 2017, as San Diego Day at the
	State Capitol and extend to the visiting delegation sincere best
	wishes for an informative and enjoyable stay in Austin.
