From Marsha Gavitt of Voters United to Preserve Flower Mound:
A gas driller has submitted a request for a "blanket drilling permit" on property north of FM 1171, east of Shiloh Road , and west of Lusk Lane. They are also asking for waivers of the town’s required setbacks from adjacent property owners and environmentally sensitive areas. Blanket permits appear to be a new way to circumvent our protective drilling ordinance and to reduce the ability of residents to be informed and to have their concerns addressed.....For a review of some of the issues surrounding oil and gas drilling in Denton County, please see our previous post: Grapevine Company Cited for Drilling Violations in Denton County.
If you cannot attend the public hearing, please email your comments by 4:00 p.m. on October 11 to the town secretary's office at paula.paschal@flower-mound.com or fax your comments to 972.874.6453. Correspondence should include your name and address.
