Proposed Developments
Residential developments being proposed include Quarter Horse Estates and Aune Ranch. Quarter Horse Estates is proposed to be located at the northwest corner of Woodland Drive and Chinn Chapel. This proposed development includes four two-acre lots with one entrance on Woodland Drive. The preliminary plat for Quarter Horse Estates will be considered by the Town’s Planning and Zoning Commission on Jan. 13 at 6 p.m. in the Council Chambers. Aune Ranch has not submitted an application for review at this time.
Copper Creek Estates Phase III (outside the Town’s jurisdiction) was approved by the Denton County Commissioner’s Court on Dec. 17, 2024. The development consists of 39 one-acre lots with private roads, and 100% of the development is located in unincorporated Denton County.
Charter/Spectrum Communications Project
The fiber project is underway, and homeowners may notice white lines, colored flags, and/or paint in their yards, marking existing utilities. These markers, placed by 811 (USIC) and the local water department, are critical for safe construction and should not be removed until work is complete.
Residents will receive door tags at least 48 hours before construction begins. The tags will include a QR code linking to detailed project information and a platform for submitting complaints or concerns. Signage will also be posted at neighborhood entrances to announce Spectrum’s arrival.
More information about the project can be found on the Town’s website, including contact information for the Charter Spectrum Team, how to report concerns, and a Q&A about the project.
