I see on the agenda for the City Council meeting on 9/16/14 some time allocated in Executive Session for a discussion about some land south of Liberty Grove and east of the toll way. Would that be the land that was turned down twice as a new subdivision? The agenda isn't real clear about which piece of land is being discussed. Is it a small piece, or the larger 52 acre site? Being vague seems to be a modus operandi. Seems like state laws regarding keeping the public informed is probably a monumental pain in the neck.
If it's the 52 acre site, why the new discussion behind closed doors? Council has denied approval for development twice. One of the main arguments against development was some idea that a credit card service center might be interested in the land. That was pretty much contrived hogwash. Another reason for denial was to save the land for office and warehouse development. Of course, that is without any evidence that a market for office and warehouse even exists. I think it was someone's opinion that it existed. Some city slicker out of Denver thought so.
Is Rowlett being sued? See my blog post on March 25, 2014.
