Tim Todd’s Round Rock roots run deep. Three generations of Todd men and their families have made a significant impact on Central Texas. His grandparents are known to Round Rock as being part of the Army Colony and renovating the old Mexican School, located in Old Town, and turning it into their residence in 1953. Their voices advocated for the preservation of these structures and local histories in the face of rapid changes in the city over the mid-century decades. Tim will relate personal stories of the Todd family’s contributions to this era of Round Rock’s history and development.

Tim is owner of T.A. Todd Construction Inc., specializing in residential remodeling, located in Georgetown, Texas. Tim is a community leader in Georgetown and Round Rock, devoting much of his time giving back to the community where he lives and works.

Please read. Important notice.

RECEIVED THIS?! Residents have reported receiving mail and in-person visits from canvassers petitioning for an amendment to the City of Round Rock's Charter that would introduce 12 new electronic billboards along IH-35 and SH-45 (these signs are not currently permitted by the City's sign code). The communication is being disseminated by a political action committee (PAC) named "Keep Round Rock Safe."

Please note:

➡️ While canvassing differs from soliciting and doesn't require an ID card, canvassers must respect "no soliciting" signs on private property.

➡️ These canvassers are not canvassing on behalf of the City of Round Rock.
