Tidbits
We received a phone call today from Crescent Real Estate. They emphasized they are still
interested, but are having difficulty rounding up the necessary people for approval. Seems
everyone is traveling. They promised to get back in touch with us no later than next
Monday with approval or changes to the letter of intent.
The city will begin maintenance of the Web page on Tuesday, December 10. Clear
Technologies has trained staff responsible for updating the individual pages. Sharon
Logan will retain responsibility for the Home Page.
Ground breaking for the Deliman Grille will take place at 10 a.m. next Tuesday, December
10 on Denton Tap. Jay has extended an invitation to city staff and Council to attend that
event.
On your agenda next Tuesday night is a bid for construction of a bridge related to the trail
system at Wagon Wheel Park. Funding is from CRDC. A copy of the map of the Wagon
Wheel Master Plan with trails will be in your FYI this Friday.
We have placed an item on the agenda for Tuesday's meeting that seeks a variance to the
Subdivision Ordinance. The variance is related to the improvements associated with
Bethel Road and the drainage included in that project. The variance is necessary due to
the fact that DFW Airport has not been willing to commit to retention/detention on their
property, as they have no immediate plans to develop. The system design under
consideration does meet the 100-Year Flood requirements until the airport develops their
property. When they choose to do so, the City will look to them to include the necessary
retention/detention on their site to maintain the adequacy of the downstream
improvements. If you have any questions before you review your packet, please feel free
to call.
A follow-up note regarding the parade: The Council float will be fully stocked with
candy for your distribution during the parade. We are again asking that this be
accomplished by walking and handing it out rather than throwing the candy from the
carriage.
