Flower Mound council unanimously approves commercial agreement with condition on building permits
Summary
The Flower Mound council approved consent minutes and a commercial agreement labeled "11 71 commercial chapter 3 80," adding a clause that blocks building permits for structures that do not meet NU ordinance standards for the term of the TIRS; both actions passed unanimously.
At a meeting of the Flower Mound Town Council, members unanimously approved consent minutes from Dec. 16, 2024, and approved the "11 71 commercial chapter 3 80" agreement with a condition that no building permit be issued for any structure that fails to conform to the NU ordinance standards for the term of the TIRS.
The council first approved the consent items, including the Dec. 16, 2024 minutes, by unanimous voice vote after a motion to approve and a second. Later in the meeting, a council member moved to approve the agenda item described as "11 71 commercial chapter 3 80," adding the condition on building permits. The motion was seconded and passed by unanimous vote. The roll calls recorded votes in the affirmative from Council member Warner; Deputy Mayor Pro Tem Shiestell; Mayor Pro Tem Martin; Council member Jordan; Council member Taylor; and Councilmember Drew (all recorded as "aye").
"I'll make the same motion, Mayor, that I made in the prior meeting," a council member said when introducing the measure. The motion as stated on the record: "Move approval of 11 71 commercial chapter 3 80, contingent on the addition of a clause that no building permit will be issued for any structure that fails to conform to the NU ordinance standards for the term of the TIRS." That motion was adopted without recorded opposition.
No substantive public-comment testimony on the items is recorded in the transcript. After the vote the council considered whether to go into a closed meeting, declined to do so, and adjourned. The presiding officer closed the meeting at 8:11 p.m.
The council's action ties approval of the commercial agreement to a requirement that affected development must meet the jurisdiction's NU ordinance standards for the duration of the TIRS; the transcript does not specify the full text of the ordinance, the length of the TIRS term, or other implementation details such as permit-review procedures or enforcement mechanisms.
