Residents rally against high density development in Collierville
In a recent government meeting, community members expressed strong opposition to a proposed high-density residential development in a predominantly single-family neighborhood in Colleyville. The zoning map presented during the meeting highlighted that the only heavy commercial areas are situated along Colleyville Boulevard, surrounded by one-story homes, small retail centers, and a school. Residents voiced concerns that the introduction of a three-story apartment complex would disrupt the character of their community.

One resident, Jason, proposed an alternative plan that would reposition the three-story section of the development away from the existing one-story homes, suggesting a two-story section be integrated into the residential area instead. This proposal aimed to mitigate the impact of the new development on the neighborhood.

Another resident, Syed, echoed the sentiment of preserving Colleyville's identity, urging the council not to approve the three-story buildings, which he described as a \"glorified version\" of apartments or townhomes. He emphasized the importance of maintaining the current architectural style and density of the area.

During the meeting, council members sought clarification on the zoning status of the property, confirming it is currently designated as Planned Unit Development (PUD). Questions were raised regarding the rental arrangements for the proposed development, which was described as senior housing with flexible lease terms to accommodate residents' needs.

As the public hearing concluded, the council acknowledged the concerns raised by residents, indicating that further discussions would be necessary to address the implications of the proposed development on the community.
