The 11-year-old "mayor for a day" of a Dallas-area city knows what her first major act in office will be: Renaming part of Main Street for teen heartthrob Justin Bieber.
A temporary sign for "Justin Bieber Way" went up Tuesday during a ceremony in Forney, Texas.
City Manager Brian Brooks says the request came from 11-year-old Caroline Gonzalez. She won a contest meant to get young people interested in municipal government. She's active in student council, recycling and community service projects.
Brooks says city officials weren't able to reach Bieber to invite him to Forney, which is about 15 miles east of Dallas.
The tween politician's act won't cost the community much. Officials say the sign was made for about $20 and would only be displayed Tuesday.
