Texans Against Crime

was held on October 14, 2008

(Formally known as Neighborhood Night Out)

     Park Temple Baptist Church and Paschal Neighborhood Association held a joint event.  We had a great turn out.  Despite the rain, Paschal Neighbors relocated to the fellowship hall and enjoyed hotdogs donated by Paschal Neighborhood Association.  Everyone had enough and everyone had a good time.  Joel Burns, Kristi Wiseman, and Mark Russell stopped by to join in.  


 

UPDATE: Paschal Rezoning

  Paschal Neighbors Support Zoning Change and Council Agrees 

That is the Fort Worth Way   

     Paschal Neighbors wanted the zoning change and went to the City Council Meeting on August 5th and showed their support!  Most neighbors stayed past 11:00 PM and witnessed the end of a hard fought battle with developers and their lawyers.  Paschal Neighbors were able to realize a zoning change from B-2 to A-5 Single Family.  

    We want to thank all those neighbors, city consultants, and the opposition for being so engaged with the issue and helping to inform everyone.  

     Paschal Neighbors welcome development and invite developers to come to our Association Meetings.  Paschal Neighbors are very interested in staying a community where most neighbors know each other and can raise a family in a great location with great schools.

GAS LEASE UPDATE as of January 2009

 

     As of July 26th, 2008

     We want to thank Chesapeake for their donation to the Paschal Neighborhood Association at our July Meeting.  

     Paschal Neighbors thanked Kevin Strawser, Chesapeake's representative, who presented the donation to the Paschal NA at our last regular meeting.

      As of September 9th, 2008

     Paschal Neighborhood Association Leaders have not asked neighbors their point of view on the issue of the 8th Ave drill site.  In anticipation of Chesapeake asking Paschal Neighbors for their support for the 8th Ave drill site, we look forward to exploring this issue at our October Neighborhood Association Meeting.  As of September 9th, 2008 neighbors have not discussed the issue.

      As of September 12, 2008

Update: As of September 12, 2008, Chesapeake, who has had meetings with all of the surrounding neighborhoods, has asked to have a meeting with Paschal Neighbors before the October 7th, meeting with the Fort Worth Council.  Paschal Neighborhood Association is working out the details with Chesapeake to call a Special Meeting to accommodate Chesapeake and help facilitate discussion between Paschal Neighbors, Chesapeake, and the opposing view.  

      As of September 15, 2008

     Update: As of September 15, 2008, Paschal Neighborhood Association will call a neighborhood meeting and will hand deliver notices to homeowners living in the neighborhood.  Because the meeting is a special meeting we will be holding the meeting at another location.  If you are a Paschal Neighborhood Resident or Absentee Owner please call for more information.

     As of September 23, 2008

     Update: As of September 23, 2008, Paschal Neighborhood Association called a Special Meeting at Mexican Inn to accommodate Chesapeake.  Chesapeake wanted to discuss the 8th Ave High Impact well site permit and proposed 8th Ave well site.  They wanted to know if Paschal Neighbors supported the High Impact Well Permit at the 8th Ave well site.  Discussion was limited to a debate between Chesapeake and Neighborhood Leaders from Berkeley Place and Ryan Place Improvement Association.  After the debate a vote was taken.  Paschal Neighbors voted "No" on the question of supporting the High Impact Well Site on 8th Ave.  Further, Paschal Neighbors passed a resolution that asks the Fort Worth & Western Railroad to cover graffiti, landscape, take care in offloading materials onsite, and consider neighbors when blocking streets.

         As of October 7, 2008  

      Update: As of October 7, 2008, Paschal Neighborhood Association Leaders will report the results of the called special meeting held September 23rd to the Fort Worth City Council.  

        As of October 8, 2008

      Watch  the Council Meeting to see this update-  Paschal Neighborhood vote results.

 

     As of January 2009

     Chesapeake is developing a master plan to present to the Fort Worth City Council.  They are working with different parties who are involved - including neighborhood associations.  They believe that they can resolve some issues concerning drilling in our urban area by putting together a plan that would develop a large area; including TCU.  The master plan would direct potential problems away from the neighborhoods (drilling, trucks, noise, etc).
