Development brings 199 homes to rural Tarrant County road. Here's what to know

Residents along Redbird Lane in southern Tarrant County moved to the area for its open space and country quiet. Now a 199-home Pulte development is being built next door after the city of Fort Worth annexed that land, and neighbors worry about traffic, flooding and what comes next on the remaining acres. FULL STORY: They sought country living. Then Fort Worth annexed the land next door Here are key takeaways: In 2021, Parks of Village Creek, LLC — tied to Fort Worth-based James R. Harris Partners — bought roughly 100 acres of pastureland at the intersection of FM 1187 and Redbird Lane a few miles east of Interstate 35W and signed a pre-annexation agreement with Fort Worth. Pulte purchased 60-plus acres and is now building a 199-home community there. Susan Schaumburg, whose property is nearby, said FM 1187 is already congested enough, and the expected increase in traffic from the new development will only worsen that. There’s also the worry that traffic will increase on Redbird Lane, which is barely wide enough for two vehicles to pass. Chad Brantley, who lives across from the Pulte site, told the Fort Worth Zoning Commission and City Council that Pulte’s rezoning application wrongly

Ex-TCU head coach who influenced modern football offenses has died

He coached at TCU during an impossible time, and his record is forgettable, but F.A. Dry has a distinctive place in the history of a program in an effort to end its worst era, and his fingerprints still exist in modern offenses. Dry, who coached at TCU from 1977 to ‘82, died on Wednesday in Fort Worth. He was 95. “He hung on for us for as long as he could because we weren’t ready to let him go,” said his son, Mike, who played football at TCU for his dad. Dry’s record at TCU was 12-51-3, and his best season was his last when the team finished 3-8. Dry arrived at TCU after a successful run at Tulsa, where he won four consecutive Missouri Valley Conference titles as head coach, and was eventually enshrined in the school’s Hall of Fame. F.A. Dry’s time at TCU At TCU, Dry experienced what the majority of TCU football coaches did in that era when he discovered competing against Texas, Texas A&M, SMU and Arkansas in the Southwest Conference was an overwhelming task. “F.A. Dry didn’t get the credit he deserves for what he did for the football program at TCU,” said John

Fort Worth's power crisis: How Texas' blue wave cost the city clout in Washington | Opinion

Fort Worth is getting bigger — closing in on 1.1 million people . Yet its political clout is waning. The city’s loss of a major pro golf tournament shown in 30 languages across 200 countries made the biggest local headline last week. But once the shock of a wave election settled down, it became clear that Fort Worth also has lost its seat at the table in Washington. Fort Worth has been a Democratic city for more than 30 years, but with powerful Republicans in Congress and the Texas House. Now, it’s a Democratic city in a Democratic county, but it’s still represented by Republicans in a Democratic U.S. House. Thanks to the White House-ordered redraw of the Texas election map, the city is shackled by partisan Republican maps. Fort Worth will not have a Democrat or any say-so at all with the new majority party controlling the U.S. House. Democratic U.S. Rep. Marc Veasey’s district was eliminated. Instead, Republican mapmakers gave an extra GOP seat to north Dallas County and East Texas. Instead of Veasey and his 14 years of experience, the only House Democrat speaking for Tarrant County will be freshman Dallas Democrat Freddy Haynes. His district barely

They sought country living. Then Fort Worth annexed the land next door

If the American Dream is a house with a picket fence and a two-car garage, the Texas Dream is a house with a picket fence, a two-car garage and enough open space that you can do what you want without bothering your neighbor and — more importantly — without your neighbor bothering you. The problems start, though, when one of those neighbors is a real estate developer with enough land, money and sway to remake a neighborhood, igniting a debate over property rights. Just ask the residents of Redbird Lane, a narrow country road that intersects with FM 1187 a few miles east of Interstate 35W in southern Tarrant County. There, urban expansion is happening faster than some would like, leading to a complicated, if not entirely unique, situation in which homeowners believe their quality of life is eroding as development aspirations threaten to bring crowds to their doorsteps. Expansion collides with rural living in south Tarrant County The neighborhood of around 40 homes on Redbird Lane and adjacent Mockingbird Road is like a community unto itself. The houses sit on a couple of acres or more, so the area attracts the kind of person looking to escape the crush

‘Something's wrong': Tarrant Republicans demand change in party leadership

An open letter from several Tarrant County Republicans demands new leadership at the helm of the county party after voters swept Democrats into office in last week’s midterm. Democrats won all of the statewide and countywide races in Tarrant County, deserting its title of the largest red county in the nation. The letter says Tarrant County voters still believe in conservative policies but made it clear they were done with the Republican Party taking them for granted. Organized by former Southlake Mayor John Huffman, the letter was signed by 16 Republicans , most of whom have served as mayors, representatives, school board members and precinct chairs. Other Republicans who believe in the sentiments are welcome to sign on too, Huffman said. Notably missing from the list are Tarrant County Judge Tim O’Hare and Fort Worth Mayor Mattie Parker. Neither responded to the Star-Telegram’s requests for comment. By electing Democrats from top to bottom, voters said they were not pleased with the Republicans’ performance in office, commitment to kitchen table issues and divisive party culture. “When a lifelong Republican does not feel welcome in their own party, because I fought for my school district, something’s wrong there,” said co-signer Chelsea Kelly,

Watch: NASA and Lockheed Martin's experimental aircraft stops in Fort Worth

The Lockheed Martin X-59 Quesst , an experimental supersonic aircraft built by Lockheed Martin in partnership with NASA, made a brief stop in Fort Worth on Thursday during its return ferry flight to California. The aircraft’s unique shape is designed to limit the volume of its sonic boom with the goal of future commercial supersonic flights over land. “Our transit times have been limited by the sonic boom,” said Pat Lebeau, Lockheed Martin’s program manager for the X-59. In test flights the X-59 has turned the sonic boom into the sound of distant rolling thunder for listeners on the ground, he said. The aircraft is designed to cruise at a maximum speed of Mach 1.4 at an altitude of 55,000 feet.

White Settlement Brewer wins first football playoff game in 37 years

A 37-year playoff win drought was on the line. White Settlement Brewer held a 3-point lead at the half over rival Azle. But the Bears thoroughly dominated the second half en route to a 31-7 victory in the Class 5A Division I bi-district round Thursday at Brewer Bear Stadium. It was the Bears’ first football playoff win since 1989. “I’m proud of our team,” Brewer head coach Marte Amrine Jr. said while covered in Gatorade. “I’m proud of our coaches. Thirty-seven years is a long time, and you feel that. People talk about it in our face. People tell us all the time. ... [The playoff win] is 37 years of work, man. It’s awesome. I’ve never been more proud of a group of kids in my life.” Brewer (10-1) will play Amarillo Tascosa (7-4) in the area round at a time and place that is to be determined. “Now we get to go on and play the next one,” said Amrine, who is in his second year leading the Bears. “And I’m excited for our guys, excited for our community, and everybody that’s involved. An awesome night, for sure.” A second-half, 21-0 run was sparked when running back Kameron
