Weekly Update

Not a lot to report, but there are a few things of interest. As previously posted, Rough Hollow Drive is getting worse. It is currently open, but the City is watching closely and if it gets worse, it will have to be closed until restoration is finished. We don't want anyone hurt!

The Special Use permit for a Speedy Stop at the old Exxon location was denied, mostly because of congestion concerns. We don't know if it will be brought to the City Council at this point - updates as they come up.

Activity in the permitting department is picking up. It's not a global recovery but it appears there is interest in the building industry in Lakeway!

The police department has four candidates in the background stage of the hiring process. With luck, we may have new officers by the end of the month!

For those interested, the Flippers Pet Store animal abuse case is over. Mr Courts was found guilty and was fined, given community service, and may not own another pet store.

The Lights On program was a GREAT success! Our own "Trail of Lights" is really looking good and is still FREE. Walk through and see what you think!

The City is installing street lights on RR620 at Stewart Road and Flamingo Road. This was done at the request of area residents and in the hope it will add to the safety of in both of these areas.

Thanks for all the support! If you want on my email update, send me a note at
