Council approves consent agenda, extends Arden Townhomes vested rights; approves facility-fee reduction for Boy Scouts
The Town of Lewisville council unanimously adopted the meeting agenda and approved the consent agenda, which included financial statements for the five months ended Nov. 30, 2024, and minutes from December meetings.

The council approved four recorded actions during the meeting:

- A resolution (2025-0002) approving a facility-fee reduction for two rooms and the kitchen at the Mary Alice Warren Community Center on March 13 for Boy Scout Troop 752 to host the Wachovia District Banquet. The motion was made by Council Member Melissa Hunt and seconded by Council Member Monte Long; the council recorded the vote as 5 in favor, 1 opposed. The transcript shows the dissenting vote as an opposed single vote but does not provide a clear, consistent name for the opposing member in the meeting record.

- A resolution (2025-0003) to extend vested rights for the Arden Townhomes project. Planning staff told the council that the site plan was approved in February 2023 and that the developer’s two-year vested period was nearing expiration; staff recommended reaffirming the vested right for up to five years because building permits have not been obtainable due to a postponement of the Great Wagon Road access. The motion to approve was made by Mr. Epping and seconded by Dr. Sadler; the vote was unanimous.

- The council set public hearings for two rezoning matters to be heard in February: case L111 (a request to rezone a portion of 7505 Franklin Road from conditional pedestrian business to RS-20 to match surrounding residential zoning) and case L112 (a request by Temple Baptist Church at 7035 Franklin Road to rezone contiguous parcels that currently have mixed RS-20 and General Industrial zoning). Council voted unanimously to set both public hearings for the Feb. 13 hearing date; a formal staff packet will be provided before the hearing for each case.

Additionally, the council heard administrative reports and safety preparations related to an approaching winter weather event. Staff described town preparations including pre-treating town-owned properties, coordinating with the state Department of Transportation and the town’s contracted plowing contractor, and urging residents to move parked vehicles off streets to allow plows access.

Council members approved the evening’s adjournment by unanimous voice vote.
