Agenda Item #11 Public Forum
Him Clancy- 1016 Alamo, Southlake, Texas
Mrs. Clancy questioned the trip that was taken to Atlanta, Georgia,
by Mayor Fickes and Mayor Pro Tem Betty Springer. She also
questioned whether or not the Fire Department and the Texas Air
Control Board had been working with Eutectic Metals in an effort
to bring the business up to standards. Her question was prompted
by the recent fire in the business. A copy of her statement is
hereby incorporated into the minutes of this meeting.
Mayor Fickes replied to Mrs. Clancy's statement by saying that the
city did pay for their trip to Georgia, and that the city attorney
advised it would be wrong for the city to let Arvida pay for the
trip. He added that Arvida is putting in a fairly large community
and he questioned what the project will look like in five to seven
years. While in Atlanta, they went through seven developments and
one development by Mobil Development Corporation. They learned a
lot and saw a lot of what Arvida is doing. There are no projects
in this area like the ones they saw wh~le on the trip.
