The Montgomery City Council convened on May 27, 2025, to address several key issues affecting the community, including housing developments and infrastructure planning. The meeting began with an invocation and the Pledge of Allegiance, followed by a review of previous meeting minutes, which were approved without opposition.

A significant topic of discussion was the request for a manufactured home to be placed at 413 Westway Drive. This home is intended to establish voter residency within the proposed Municipal Utility District (MUD) 255 for Tri Pointe Homes. The council unanimously approved this request, emphasizing its temporary nature.

The council also considered a partial replat for Jada Cleaner Section 1, located at 1005 College Street. This replat involves subdividing a larger tract into two parcels, which meet city requirements. The motion to approve this replat was also passed unanimously.

Another notable agenda item was a variance request related to minimum lot sizes and setbacks for The Villages of Montgomery development. The council discussed the implications of increasing housing density in the area, with concerns raised about potential traffic congestion and infrastructure strain. Despite these concerns, the council ultimately approved the variance, allowing for smaller lot sizes and closer setbacks.

Additionally, the council authorized WGA to conduct an updated utility and economic feasibility study for a new development project near Buffalo Springs Drive. This study will assess the necessary infrastructure improvements to support the proposed development, which includes plans for multiple fast-food restaurants and a gas station.

The meeting highlighted ongoing efforts to manage growth and development in Montgomery, balancing the need for new housing with infrastructure capabilities and community concerns. The council's decisions reflect a commitment to accommodating growth while addressing the potential challenges that come with it.
