From the first phase of a new residential community to an upcoming intersection improvement project, check out three Flower Mound Town Council stories from March.
A subdivision site plan for Havenwood, an over 200-home development in west Flower Mound, has received approval.
Flower Mound Town Council unanimously approved a subdivision site plan and tree removal permits for the first 87 homes in Havenwood during the March 2 meeting.
Toll Brothers is set to develop Havenwood, which is a 447-acre residential development. The subdivision site plan covers the first phase that will include 87 homes, according to town documents.
The development is located south of Cross Timbers Road and is bordered by Shiloh Road to the west and Scenic Drive to the east. Havenwood was initially approved in May 2024, and it will be built out in four phases.
Construction could begin later this year on intersection improvements at FM 2499 and FM 3040.
Flower Mound Town Council unanimously approved a project contract worth over $2.82 million with Boyd-based 2L Construction during the March 2 meeting.
The project is aimed at improving the traffic flow at the intersection of FM 2499 and FM 3040, said Dale Crown, Flower Mound’s assistant director of engineering. According to town documents, each direction of travel will have dual left-turn lanes, three through lanes and a dedicated right-turn lane.
3. Furst Ranch development agreement
Flower Mound officials approved an agreement to cover the costs for eligible infrastructure projects in Furst Ranch, a mixed-use development in the western part of town.
Council unanimously approved the agreement, which provides an estimated $22.17 million in water, road and sewer projects, during the March 2 meeting.
The agreement covers road and utility projects planned for Phase 1 of Furst Ranch, according to town documents. The nearly $22.17 million in estimated project costs will be covered from Flower Mound’s Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone No. 2, which includes Furst Ranch, impact fees and an interlocal agreement with Denton County, town officials said.
A tax increment reinvestment zone allows municipalities to establish a baseline taxable value for the district and allocate the captured growth from increases in property values toward infrastructure projects, according to the Texas Comptroller’s Office.
