OPENING COMMENTS
-Mayor Carter opened the meeting by giving a brief history of
events that have led up to this meeting. He explained that in
1984 the developer presented a master plan for development
that several residents felt was not in keeping with how
Trophy Club was meant to be designed. These residents were
concerned and wanted to insure that land values in Trophy
Club were protected.
On January 19, 1985, Trophy Club Incorporated. Since that
time, several hundred residents have worked diligently to
develop a Master Plan. Mayor Carter introduced the original
group for incorporation, council members, planning and zoning
members and committees.
-Mike Hamper, Chairman of the Planning and Zoning Commission,
stated that the P & Z feels a great responsibility to the
residents of Trophy Club. The goals and objectives were
established by the citizens, refined and then put into form
by the commission. After several public hearings, they were
adopted by the P & Z and the Town Council.
Chairman Hamper stated that the Comprehensive Master Plan is
an outgrowth of all of that previous work. It is the
Commission's objective to make certain that this ordinance
contains every orovision that is possible to meet the goals
and objectives, and to serve the best interest of the
residents of Trophy Club.
