r/Pflugerville

Pflugerville needs to be aware of this freak’s behavior.

Hello, did anyone see the accident on East Pecan St, right in front of the Pflugerville First United Methodist Church?

A white Toyota Tundra ran over me while riding on the sidewalk. The white Tundra was trying to pull onto the PVille First United Methodist Church and hit me full speed.

The accident happened around 6:30pm. I regained consciousness around 9pm. I'm thankful to be alive but very hurt.

The report says that I was thrown 8ft into the air upon impact

Does anyone have dashcam footage? I would greatly appreciate it

One of the best political signs I’ve ever seen.

This afternoon, Pflugerville leaders sat down with Austin Community College to start mapping out what a deeper local partnership could look like if voters approve ACC annexation in November.

I joined Mayor Weiss, PfISD Superintendent Dr. Quintin Shepherd, School Board President Chevonne Lorigo-Johst, ACC leadership, and others to talk through how PfISD, ACC, the City, PCDC, local employers, and other partners could work together around a shared goal: improving opportunity and prosperity in Pflugerville.

The goal of the meeting was to make sure we are aligned on the vision, the programs and facilities we already have to build from, and how we would start working together from day one if annexation is approved.

We discussed where our workforce has skill gaps, what we need to better attract new businesses and help existing employers grow here, which programs would help adults retrain or move into new careers, and how entrepreneurship support could fit into that work.

A big part of the conversation was PfISD’s new Career and Technical Education Center, scheduled to open next fall. The district is building a major new facility while also facing substantial budget constraints around staffing and expanding programs.

One idea we discussed is for ACC to invest directly in Pflugerville by locating faculty, equipment, and programs at the new CTE Center. That could allow the same facility to serve high school students during the day and adults and other learners at night and on weekends, while sharing equipment, labs, and instructional resources. For PfISD, that could mean expanding programs and capacity without bearing the full cost alone. ACC’s published service plan already calls for deeper collaboration at the CTE Center, including expanded dual credit, workforce credentials, and career-connected learning.

We also started working through which ACC programs are seeing growing demand in northeast Travis County, what makes sense to bring and expand here, what support PfISD needs, and where the City and PCDC can connect education and workforce programs directly to our economic development work.

That whole-of-city approach is the larger opportunity I see. We already have institutions, facilities, employers, and people doing pieces of this work. The goal is to get them working from the same plan around education, workforce development, business growth, and household prosperity.

This work is why I support Pflugerville joining the ACC district in November.

As i'm writing this post, we found the owner! Still going to post this to leave some kind of paper trail with info if folks run into him again in the future!

His name is Oso, he IS chipped, and if you get the chip scanned you should be able to get ahold of his owners!

He's a male that is not neutered. For text search: big fluffy dog with orange fur, maybe some kind of Chow mix.

We found him while out walking in Pflugerville last night. He seemed very interested in our female dog and kept following us, and we didn't want to leave him outside to potentially get hit by a car or something, so we led him back home and kept him overnight.

I don't have facebook but was lucky that the preview posts for the pflugerville lost and found pets mentioned this guy (screenshots attached) -- they mention that he's been lost several times before over the past couple years. He lives somewhere roughly near ramble creek (don't wanna post anything too specific wrt to owner's privacy! but chip scan can get you more info).

Disposition: he's pretty chill and friendly, doesn't seem to like being touched or pet, but was very gentle about letting me know that by mouthing at my arm. Does not seem super treat- or water- motivated. Stops every 3 seconds to mark spots, haha. He did not willingly get into a crate himself but when my partner got a collar and leash on him, was able to guide him into one pretty quickly. He also likes to dig, which may be how he got out in the first place.
