TLU President appointed to NCAA Division III Presidents Council (Seguin) -- Texas Lutheran University President Dr. Debbie Cottrell has been appointed to the NCAA Division III Presidents Council. The National Collegiate Athletic Association exists to regulate student athletics among its member schools, and the Presidents Council is the highest governing body in Division III. The council serves to implement policies adopted by the Association’s Board of Governors and establishes and directs general policies of the division, among other things. “I’m grateful for the opportunity to serve on this important leadership group,” says Cottrell. “The NCAA and our Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference help ensure that athletics on our campus provides the strongest possible experience for our students. I look forward to representing the Conference and furthering the goals and philosophies of Division III athletics.”

(Seguin) – The actual search for a unique development project officially gets underway in the city of Seguin. City officials say today is the day that they begin seeking qualified partners – partners who want to work with them on the redevelopment of the historic Nolte property abutting downtown’s Central Park. Seguin officials recently purchased the property and are working with renowned TBA Douglas Architects to create a development plan that will reimagine the site. The city is now issuing a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) from experienced developers. Interested parties today can begin to sign for the receipt of a RFQ.
The RFQ is part of a strategic real estate initiative, in which the city aims to divest its interest in the property, while facilitating a visionary project that enriches the fabric of the community. To pave the way for this transformation, the city, in collaboration with stakeholders, has designated a General Land Use Plan (GLUP), that allows for a diverse but targeted range of potential uses on the property. Seguin Director of Economic Development Josh Schneuker says the city is excited and eager to work with qualified developers on this monumental project. Project, pg. 3
