promoter of the Houston and Texas Central Railroad. An interurban railway through Allen was in operation from
1908-1948. The original railroad station still remains on Butler Street and has received historical designation.
Therefore, the Park Board endorses the naming of the site as "Allen Station."

(Agenda Item VIII -B)
Parks and Recreation Board Chairman Lonnie Thomas turned the floor to Mayor Pro Tem Kevin Lilly
Mayor Pro Tem Lilly provided the following information on the naming of the recreation center to a crowded City
Council Chambers:
Tonight it is an extreme honor to be able to share with this community the dedication and
background of an individual that has been a household name in Allen, Texas since April of 1977
As he has been quoted in the past, especially when talking about his accomplishments, he states
"Nothing is accomplished by a single individual." As I look at the audience tonight, I see many
close friends as well as family members who have been close at his side. He has always expressed
sincere gratification for the support of his family, his wife, the Councilmembers that he has worked
with and City Staff. It has truly been a huge benefit to this current Council to work with this
individual. He has always been steady, open, ready to listen, willing to compromise. He
continually reminds each of us that teamwork is what has kept the Allen machine running smoothly
all these years. I know in the past as I see Don Rodenbaugh, Mickey Pierson, and Frank Dogger,
former City Councilmembers and Mayors, of this great City, this important fundamental has
enabled this community to move forward. He states "The most critical thing to me in terms of the
active process is what 1 have a tendency to call unity of purpose." It has been this very strong
belief that has put the wheels on many, many projects since 1977 Three successful bond
packages, telephone extended area service, start of a full-time fire department, cooperative
relationship between City, school and Chamber of commerce to support economic development.
defeat of the 1989 tax rollback election brought on by the implementation of the Paramedic
Program, successful 1/2 cent sales tax election for economic development, and most of all, an
extreme dedication to build a quality park system. During this individual's commitment to this
community, we have seen a land acquisition policy, a very definitive comp plan in 1985 and 1992,
a linear greenbelt park master plan, park dedication ordinance, acquisition and development of the
City cemetery, senior citizens, Ford Park, Cottonwood Bend Park, Country Meadows Park, Jupiter
ballfields, Reed Park, Rolling Hills Park, Story Park, Watters Crossing Park, Bolin Park, over six
miles of hike and bike trails, purchase of the 100 -acre community park -- Allen Station, and most
importantly. Bethany lakes Park with the passive picnic pavilion and Allen's first recreation
center.
As we all sit here tonight, each and every one of us, I'm sure, knows who this individual
is, but first as he might say -- "It's time to get down to the Lick -Log!" He has been employed at
the Region 10 Education Service Center since 1968 He was aimed the Executive Director in July
of 1984. He has been the Chairman of the Board of Directors for the Collin County United Way,
recipient of the "Spirit of Allen Award" in 1993, joined the Allen City Council on April 21, 1977,
was Mayor Pro Tem for ten years and became our Mayor in 1988. He was born in Tyler, Texas,
attended elementary school in Edom, Texas, graduated from Van High School, attended Tyler
Junior College, graduated from East Texas State with his Doctorate in 1968. He has a beautiful
wife, Judy, five children and several grandchildren. This individual has dedicated a major portion
of his available time to this community He has always placed an immense importance on "quality
of life" in Allen, Texas -- many times putting this community ahead of his personal pleasures and
family His commitment to youth is undaunting -- not only in his real job but as a coach, as a

father and as our Mayor, his commitment has always been steadfast. His vision has become reality
for this community It is only fitting tonight to refer to Resolution No. 874-9-88(R) which states
"a municipal facility can be named for an individual who has made significant contributions to the
community by outstanding personal service based on excellence and duration of commitment."
