Urban development and encroachment of Town's rural setting Mr. 8outwell emphasized how critical the co-ordination of all three governing authorities has to be in order to maintain controlled rather than uncontrolled future growth. Today's population is 5,500 residing in only 40% of Trophy Club's developed land area. By projected build mut in the year 2021 the remaining undeveloped 60% will be populated by 15,505. With the current speed of growth this projection may be sooner than 2021 because in 1880 only 16 new home permits were issued in comparison to 133 in 1985. Future projects to be considered are: 1. Increasing the % of parks from the present 1% 2. Aligning Trophy Club Drive further north and looping to Indian Creek Drive 3. Schools (2 elementary and 1 high school) 4. Restricting commercial development to Highway 114 5. Utilities (storm water is th Town's responsibility when above ground, but become the M.U.D."s when under ground) 6.
