Celina is a "Home Rule City" which puts the governing of the city in the hands of the elected City Council with the City Manager implementing those decisions. As a member of the City Council for the past several years, I am proud to be involved in the progression of our community. Comprehensive plans for our future land use and growth have been developed and many have been accomplished. Although we still have several planning projects and decisions to make. These decisions need to be made to ensure we grow with our goals in mind. Since we are located on Hwy. 289 (Preston Road) and the new extension of the Dallas North Tollway, we have quick access to Frisco, Plano, and the DFW area which offers limitless opportunities. That is one of the many reasons my wife and I chose Celina as our home after graduating from Texas A & M University. We loved the small-town charm and both have family which run deep throughout this area. Our families raised us in communities which had great pride in their traditions. This sense of community pride is what we wanted for our children and is exactly what we found in Celina.
The District of Sechelt is located on the lower Sunshine Coast of British Columbia. Approximately 50 km northwest of Vancouver, Sechelt is accessible to the mainland of British Columbia via a 40 minute ferry trip between Horseshoe Bay and Langdale, and a 25 minute drive from Langdale along Highway 101, now known as the Sunshine Coast Highway. The municipality takes its name from the Coast Salish Shishalh people, who first settled the area thousands of years ago, and means "land between two waters". The original Village of Sechelt was incorporated on February 15, 1956. Sechelt later expanded its boundaries in 1986 with the inclusion of a number of adjacent unincorporated areas. The District of Sechelt, as it is known today, encompasses some 39.71 km² (15.33 sq mi) at the isthmus of the Sechelt Peninsula, between the southern tip of Sechelt Inlet (Porpoise Bay) and the Strait of Georgia that separates the provincial mainland from Vancouver Island). Sechelt is a seaside community that extends primarily along the coastline of the Sunshine Coast. It is bounded to the west and east by the unincorporated communities of Halfmoon Bay and Roberts Creek, respectively. As of the 2006 Canadian census its population was 8,455.

The name Medford is thought to have come from "the ford by the meadow" or "Meadford" thus commemorating the importance of the fordable part of the Mystic River located just west of present-day Medford Square. The original area of Medford was owned by Mathew Cradock, the first Governor of the Massachusetts colonies. Although Cradock never saw it, he employed men to develop his land into a plantation. After his death, the plantation passed to his heirs and then was sold en masse in 1652 to Edward Collins. The area was designated a "peculiar" which signified that it was private property and not a properly incorporated town. Collins began selling pieces of land to others after 1656. In 1684, Medford was granted the right to raise its own money by the General Court. In 1892, Medford became incorporated as a city.
