Mayor White called the meeting to order at 7:15 p.m. Minutes of the previous meeting were read by the Secretary and approved as read. Mr. Larry Best, acting as spokesman for the Trophy Club Homeowners Association, recalled the Town meeting of August 31, 1983, at which time the Trophy Club Homeowners asked the Council to approve the submitted resolution granting permission for Trophy Club to incorporate. At this same meeting the Trophy Club group requested that action on this matter be postponed. Motion was made, seconded and carried by a majority of the Council to table consideration of the submitted resolution for an indefinite period. Mr. Best stated that after this considerable length of time, the residents of Trophy Club feel that they can best represent themselves by forming their own city and seek approval of the resolution previously submitted asking for Westlake's per- mission to hold an election to incorporate. During the discussion following the request from Mr. Best and after Mayor White learned that the group did not have the necessary legal instruments needed before action could be taken on the resolution at this meeting, Mr.Windle asked if a straw vote could be taken to indicate how the Board of Aldermen would vote on the issue at their next meeting. An informal polling of the Council showed Aldermen Jerry Moore, Kelly Bradley and Sherry Dudley favor granting written consent for Trophy Club residents to hold an election to incorporate. Alderman Alvin Oien disapproved. No formal action was taken by the Council pending presentation of the required instruments at the next regularly schedualed meeting of the Board of Aldermen, December 3, 1984.
