Dear Mayor Duggan:
As a Mayor of one of the Cities in the 5th fastest growing County in the United States,
you are aware of how important transportation routes are to this County. With our
tremendous population growth, highways are no longer a matter that can be ignored.
We must plan today for more highways to relieve our few but crowded transportation
routes.
We are now in a position to take action that will foster new highways, promote new
business, insure good planning and relieve some of our crowded highways. This beginning
lies with our successful implementation of 2499 from D/FW to F.M. 2181. The extension
of 2499 from F.M. 407 to F.M. 2181 was just recently, approved for study by the Texas
Highway Commission.
To be successful will take your help. We must provide for public input and support,
raise the required funds to conduct the studies, insure adequate right-of-ways and
provide for a plan that will be cost effective for construction. This will require a
consolidated effort of each City with the County providing the leadership.
To better inform you about the issues surrounding 2499, a meeting of Denton officials,
Mayors, Councilmen, and City Managers has been set for June 30th in Commissioners
Court at the Courthouse-on-the-Square, 110 West Hickory, Denton, Texas at 7:30 p.m..
Your attendance and support is critical to the successful completion of 2499.
Thank you for your time and your support to this outstanding opportunity for Denton
County.
