Gas Wells Near Grapevine High School?

XTO proposed site for natural gas wells may be in Southlake but it is only 850 feet from Grapevine High School.

There was a meeting Tuesday night at Southlake Town Hall where residents could ask questions. There will be two more meetings tomorrow night 4/1 and Monday Night 4/5.

Grapevine does not allow drilling within 1000 feet of schools. Grapevine and Grapevine-Colleyville ISD may not be able to stop the well from being drilled since the site is actually in Southlake.

There are many concerns about the health and safety of the students attending the school. Highway 26 is the where the students and faculty enter and exit the campus.
