Why doesn’t Lewisville declare English as its official language?
A. All city business is conducted primarily in English. If someone comes forward to conduct business with the city and needs assistance in a language other than English, then we attempt to reasonably accommodate that person. Examples include oral communication in Municipal Court or the Police Department. As stated above, the only active communication conducted by the city in any language other than English are those areas that are required by law or those that impact public health or safety, the same exceptions that are included in the small number of official-language measures that have been adopted in other Texas cities.
