When I wrote and published this edition, I somehow misidentified Tex Schmidt, one of the Northwest Dallas County Flood Control District directors, as Tex Ritter, a country singer who died before I was born: https://texashighways.com/travel-news/tex-ritters-legacy-lives-museum-in-carthage/

Personally, I think Coppell needs to find a new city attorney. On the zoning change request for Senior Housing. The heck it is just about a zoning request. Use matters as well. And if the city council members vote to allow this to happen, they should all be recall petitioned or be crushed at the next election. This is nothing short of insane for locals.

I didn’t know that Valley Ranch needed an expansion. Are they building a new wing? Is it in anticipation of redistricting students or possibly closing a school? Is the fine arts building being attached to the high school? I’m having trouble picturing room for expansion.

I remember when they proposed putting the high school campus/complex off open land at 121, but at the time, people wanted the high school to be walkable. Sometimes I think having all that open land might’ve been a better choice.

Lots of new information to digest! Thank you for the updates!
