Our Mission: To work in a legal, ethical, and civil manner to stop urban gas drilling in the highly residential areas of North Texas. We are not against all gas drilling, but rather that which will adversely affect the public safety, the enjoyment of our homes, and our overall quality of life. We support the need for better regulation and accountability of the Oil & Gas Industry in rural and urban areas of Texas.

Keep Flower Mound's Oil and Gas Ordinance Strong. Sign the Petition
http://www.petitiononline.com/fmogord9/petition.html
This petition is from late 2009. After the Red Oak vs the Town of Flower Mound case was dismissed . Members of a household over the age of 18 may sign on a separate line. Whether you have signed a lease, not signed a lease, or do not own your mineral rights, you should be very concerned about any changes to the Oil & Gas Ordinance. The ordinance stood up in the court of law.

Are they adhering to the drought restrictions water schedule? People in Flower Mound, and all over Texas, are being told what days they can and cannot water their lawns and being advised to conserve water. What's not on fire across the state is in danger of it.
HOW CAN THEY DESTROY WATER UNDER THESE CIRCUMSTANCES? We don't have any water to spare!!!
A local TV News station should broadcast from this FRAC job since it's so safe and aesthetically pleasing for the community of Flower Mound.
The owner of the property is allowing Titan to use his private water well. The town can't restrict that water usage.
What are the teachers and administrators at that school saying about this?
When I made complaints about the diesel fumes in my neighborhood, I quickly discovered that TCEQ does not regulate diesel. The whole operation is criminal because it harms human and animal health.
@anon 8:34 am: We tried talking to Ms Burris, the principal of Bluebonnet elementary school and the PTA president there, they just bumped us off.
Mr. Cummings west of town built his 10,000 square foot mansion in between two drilling pad sites. Will Mr. Hilliard do the same or take the money and run?
Either way, there goes the neighborhood.
Hi
I complained to Flower Mound City employee Jon from Env Dept. He called TCEQ about Diesel fumes. The lady from TCEQ is sending somebody. I told them to measure near the Bluebonnet park which is closer to Hilliard. Call the city Env department. They are helpful!!
Has anyone contacted the church? I think they have a school there.
I'm so sorry you guys!
I pray everyday for everybody who's getting fracked.
Although I'm glad I'm not there wondering which way the wind is blowing.
Take Care,
and keep yourself safe.
Hillard you're a complete IDIOT! Can I say 'hate' you?!?
I remember after they did the vertical drill that site was leaking sulfur like nobody's business.
I couldn't drive by it without getting sick and dizzy. While the drill was up, I would just drive out of my way.
It made my rides at NS almost non existent.
I hate people who take money and then, make people sick for greed.
It's a sin!
Oh, to the guy who's letting him use his private well water...it's probably already contaminated, and don't be mad when your well goes dry.
I know all about contaminated water in Flower Mound!
And why did they wait til the kids are in school?!?
I tell you why, it's
-Fracking Crazy!
Wow...proof that you are one sided in your punishment of the word "idiot". Interesting or pathetic I can't decide
At Anon September 14 2:29 p.m.
You are correct and there is definitely a double standard. Have you ever stopped to wonder why? We all know who you are and you keep posting your smart alec comments both here and FMC. Trust me. We are not laughing with you. You have a better audience with Ginger, Jenny and Kendra, since you all are obviously working together for next year's municipal election. Why don't you go on the FLower Mound Shares FB site where you are welcome?
FMCAUD, thanks for keeping us in the know and let's all say a big prayer for all those who are negatively impacted by fracking.
Jody, Jean, Mike and Steve,
Are you feeling the love yet? Are you really proud that you brought this crap into our once beautiful town? Jody, why don't you take your shoes off again and wave your sign of support for Hilliard as you did for Cherokee Horn?
Thanks for nothing.
Hey, don't leave out Mr. Tasker, maybe we could can some of our "fresh" air from over here and pipe it in so his family can smell it and get sick to their stomach for awhile as my kids did the last couple of days.
Speaking of the two previous posts, does anybody see the odd connection between the two?
That is comments 8:39 a.m. and 5:03 p.m.
For the people who know the truth, and there are many, we must never forget how Kendra Stephenson teamed up with Jody Smith this last election to win her council seat.
Maybe all is fair in love and politics, but the people who live by Hilliard and the children who go to school at Bluebonnet and Shadowridge are the ones who lose. So sad for them and our town that has been torn apart by greed and politics.
@ September 15, 2011 7:37 PM
No, I don't, please spell it out, it's early and I haven't had my coffee yet. ;)
I was driving by Hilliard one of the days they had the "silia - frack sand" and it appeared thick. The wind was blowing towards Shadow Ridge Middle School, so I drove by the school. The football team was on the field practicing. Concerning picture...
To Anonymous September 15, 2011 8:39 AM...you are not as nearly as smart as you like to think you are as you have proven with your post you have absolutely NO CLUE as to who I am.
Go ahead and believe it. Continue to believe that rules and standards should apply to everyone but yourselves. That may not be how everyone here feels and if that is the case I apologize. However, a vocal majority seem to think that if rules are followed and you still don't like the outcome it's okay to try and bend them in your favor.
Do something positive. Make a chance in your community. Organize or volunteer. Don't simply continue to be a source of negative energy.
What is done is done at Hilliard. If you are truly that upset about it, start working towards true and lasting changes to make sure it never happens again.
Otherwise, sit on your hands and complain.
Which do you think your children will respect you more for?
I can hear the drilling noise 3 miles from the Hillard site.
Highly unlikely.
at anon 3:44 PM
Were you there?
Ever watch, "Its a wonderful life"? I wonder if Hillard realizes he is Mr. Potter
