Plano City Council met June 26.

Meet

Plano City Council met June 26.

Here is the minutes provided by the Council:

A public hearing to consider approval of a third amendment to the Agreement to restate and amend three existing annexation agreements and an agreement to annex certain property dated November 22, 2004 between the City of Plano and Lakewood Homes Inc. and LaSalle Bank Nation Association, Trustee Under Trust No. 102777 and its beneficiary, British and Overseas Property Development limited was opened.

Attorney Grant read the public notice and explained the amendment. This amendment only effects the lump sum school cash contribution to be made by a developer. It does not have anything to do with the SSA or current home owners.

Several comments were made by residents who were concerned with the SSA that they are paying on their properties. They wanted to be sure that new property owners would also be paying an SSA. Attorney Grant explained several times that this public hearing had nothing to do with SSA’s. The School District has already agreed to this amendment.

A motion was made by Alderman Johns, seconded by Alderman Rennels, to close the public hearing. A unanimous “Aye” voice vote was heard. Motion passed.
