During a recent government meeting, community members voiced concerns regarding the preservation of local historical and natural sites, particularly around Buckner Cemetery. One speaker highlighted the presence of potential Indian burial grounds and a rich array of wildlife, including eagles, bobcats, and various native trees, emphasizing the area's ecological and cultural significance. The speaker expressed a strong desire to prevent the area from being developed into concrete structures, advocating for its protection as a vital natural habitat.

Another participant, Linda Telen, an anthropologist and project developer for the Pentatucket Comanche Trails, shared her plans to establish historic trails across Texas in collaboration with the Comanche Nation. Telen noted that her trading post is intended to serve as a destination along these trails. However, she raised alarm over recent construction activity in the area, which she fears could threaten the preservation of significant historical sites. Telen underscored the importance of finding economic incentives to protect these landscapes, warning that without such measures, they may be at risk of destruction.

The discussions reflect a growing concern among community members about balancing development with the preservation of cultural heritage and natural ecosystems in the region.
