Even though it is a small town and a small school district (for Tarrant County), not many people can recognize a school board member or city council member on sight.

He is a supporter, period.?

Taylor is a member of the Kennedale Area Chamber of Commerce. He helped organized and start the Kennedale Rotary Club. He is supporter of the Kennedale Boy Scout Troop and Cub Pack.

He has served on more committees than ?you can shaking a stick at.? He attends almost every major event in the city and school district including countless football games, school plays, concerts, city celebrations and events – just ask his wife, Ginger.

Joe, truly, has been the face of Kennedale for so many and in so many different places. He has been and is a champion of the community and schools like no other. Whether you are a supporter or not, he has to be appreciated for his time and his effort on behalf of this community.

The public is welcome to attend this meeting.

It has to be noted though, it is doubtful that Mr. Taylor will be riding off in the sunset anytime soon.
