If it’s true that Tommy Tompkins and Steve Topletz are busy thinking of “The Preserve II,” or “Hank Haney South,” or whatever they might call it, here’s two words of advice: Be proactive.
Draft a list of minimum requirements for such a development well in advance of it ever being officially presented to the city. Get it published somewhere, if you can. (Sorry that I can’t help you; try Marlon over at the Focus, or the Lancaster insert page of news in DeSoto Today.)
Carol, as mayor pro tem, and knowing that Headen will at least be listening to your views on development now, say that you’ll vote to dismiss with prejudice anything tha doesn’t at least meet these standards.
Feel free to call a southside town hall meeting to brainstorm what all should be on such a “minimum standards list.” Couldn’t hurt your re-election campaign to rally your supporters by having them be at such a meeting, either.
