Trailhead Acquisitions Bowtown Road Rezoning
Two related Bowtown Road cases — a 252-unit apartment rezone and a 75-lot townhome plat — signal continued residential growth on the city's east side. Commissioners raised traffic concerns about emergency-only access off Bowtown.
175-acre expansion of MX-PUD 26-2 west of Troy Road
Corridor Company wants to expand its planned development by 175 acres west of Troy Road, adding homes, a future school site, and neighborhood-scale commercial along a Houk Road extension. Two longtime Hills Miller Road residents worry about losing their rural way of life, livestock compatibility, and possible businesses near their homes.
