Two New Braunfels City Councilmembers recently earned the Texas Municipal League Institute (TMLI) Certified Municipal Official designation. The Texas Municipal League (TML) is a voluntary association made up of 1,170 Texas cities, including New Braunfels.
District 2 Councilmember Christopher Willis and District 4 Councilmember Lawrence Spradley received the designation at the Texas Municipal League Conference held in San Marcos on March 15th. The recognition honors individuals who have completed 72 or more continuing education units (CEU’s) during the 2023 calendar year and is the top designation in the TMLI program. The required 72 CEU’s included two hours of open government training. Councilmembers Willis and Spradley are two of only thirty elected city officials who received the 2023 Certified Municipal Official designation.
The TMLI program is designed to enhance the leadership and problem-solving capabilities of Texas’ elected city officials. Participants are offered educational sessions on economic development, city revenue, ethics, governance, leadership, legislative issues, and more throughout the program year.
