HCR 48 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Designating Roanoke as the official Unique Dining Capital of Texas for a 10-year period ending in 2035.

This resolution symbolically designates Roanoke as Texas' "Official Unique Dining Capital" for a 10-year period ending in 2035. It recognizes Roanoke's 60+ restaurants, historic downtown (including Oak Street and National Register buildings), and its reputation as a dining destination attracting visitors from across the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. The designation is ceremonial and does not create new laws, funding, or obligations; it simply affirms the city's existing culinary identity per Texas Government Code Section 391.003(e). The resolution directly affects Roanoke's public recognition but does not alter any policies or impact specific businesses or residents.
