Item #4. Consideration of an Ordinance granting consent for
the inclusion/annexation of 85 acres into Trophy Club MUD#1.
The Mayor read both the petition requesting annexation of 85 acres
into MUD #1 and the proposed ordinance. During the discussion that
followed, Mr. Carroll Huntress and Mr. Albert Huddleston from the
Circle T Ranch, several Aldermen and the Mayor expressed great
concern regarding the lowering of the Puluxy water table caused by
Trophy Club continuing to use the Puluxy wells instead of their
Ft. Worth water. Puluxy wells are the Town of Westlake's only
source of water at this time. The Board explored the possibility
of annexing only the 44.759 acre "Triangle Tract" into the Trophy
Club MUD at this time. IBM representatives said this would be
satisfactory to them since there is an immediate need for water
at the "Triangle Tract" and no immediate need for water at the
other four tracts situated on the west end of IBM property.
Alderman Howard Dudley moved to table the request to annex property
into MUD #1 until the February meeting of the Board of Aldermen.
Alderman Ralph Rampellini seconded the motion. Alderman Howard
Dudley, Alderman Ralph Rampellini, Alderman Sherry Dudley and
Alderman Jerry Moore voted for the motion. Alderman Alvin Oien
voted against. The motion carried by majority. Mayor White asked
Mr. Carroll Huntress to consult with the Trinity River Authority and
Mr. Scott Bradley to consult with Ft. Worth to see if water would
be available to IBM and possibly the Town of Westlake from any
source other than. the Trophy Club MUD.
Item #5. Consideration of a resolution approving a Mutual Boundary
Agreement between Westlake and Southlake. Mayor White read a
letter from Mr. Walts and the Resolution regarding the Mutual
Boundary Agreement. The Board studied a map depicting the area
involved and discussed the subject at great length. Mr. Walts
requested a vote from the Council. Alderman Alvin Oien moved to
approve the Resolution as presented. Motion died for lack of a
second. No action taken.
Item #6. Consideration of a resolution supporting the Highway
114 Steering Committee's study. Motion made by Alderman Sherry
Dudley, seconded by Alderman Jerry Moore to table this item until
the February meeting. Motion carried by unanimous vote.
Item V. Consideration of a resolution endorsing the Tarrant
County Criminal Justice Bond Issue. After the Mayor read the
resolution motion was made by Alderman Jerry Moore to approve
Resolution #56 endorsing the Tarrant County Criminal Justice Bond
Issue. Alderman Ralph Rampellini seconded. Alderman Jerry Moore,
Alderman Ralph Rampellini, Alderman Sherry Dudley and Alderman Alvin
Oien voted for. Alderman Howard Dudley voted against. Motion
carried by a majority.
