PETITION FOR CONSENT TO ADDITION OF LAND
TO A MUNICIPAL UTILITY DISTRICT
THE STATE OF TEXAS
COUNTY OF DENTON
§
§
TO THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF DENTON,
TEXAS:
The undersigned, LaLa Ranch, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (the "Owner"),
respectfully petitions the City of Denton, Texas for its consent to the addition of land to La La
Ranch Municipal Utility District ofDenton County (the "District"). In support of this Petition, the
Owner would respectfully show the following:
I.
The approximately 311.39 acres sought to be added to the District (the "Tract") is described
by metes and bounds in Exhibit "A," attached hereto and made a part hereof for all purposes.
II.
The Tract lies within Denton County, and not within the boundaries of any incorporated
city or town. The Tract lies wholly within the exclusive extraterritorial jurisdiction of the City of
Denton, Texas, as such term is determined pursuant to Chapter 42 V.T.C.A. Local Government
Code.
III.
The Owner is the holder oftitle to the Tract as shown by the Denton County Tax Rolls and
conveyances of record. There are no lienholders on the Tract.
IV.
The District was heretofore duly created pursuant to House Bill 4719, 86th Texas
Legislature, Regular Session, 2019, codified as Chapter 8031, Special District Local Laws Code,
under the terms and provisions of Article XVI, Section 59, and Article III, Section 52, of the Texas
Constitution, and Chapters 49 and 54, Texas Water Code, as amended. The District generally is
empowered and authorized to purchase, construct, acquire, own, operate, maintain, repair,
improve, or extend inside and outside its boundaries any and all works, improvements, facilities,
plants, equipment, and appliances necessary to accomplish the purposes of its creation.
4833-1905-01 56. vI
EXHIBIT "B"
v.
The general nature of the work to be done by and within the Tract at the present time is the
construction, maintenance and operation of a waterworks system for residential and commercial
purposes; the construction, maintenance and operation of a sanitary sewer collection system and
sewage disposal plant; the control, abatement and amendment ofthe hannful excess of waters and
the reclamation and drainage of overflowed lands within the lands to be included within the
Di strict; and the construction of roads and of such additional facilities, systems, plants and
enterprises as shall be consonant with the purposes for which the District is organized.
VI.
There is a necessity for the improvements above described because the Tract is located
within an area that is experiencing substantial and sustained residential and commercial growth, is
urban in nature and is not supplied with adequate water, sanitary sewer and drainage facilities and
roads. The health and welfare of the future inhabitants of the Tract requires the acquisition and
installation of an adequate waterworks, sanitary sewer and storm drainage system and roads. The
purchase, construction, extension, improvement, maintenance and operation of such watervvorks
system and storm and sanitary sewer collection and disposal systems and roads will conserve and
preserve the natural resources of this State by promoting and protecting the purity and sanitary
condition of the State's waters and will promote and protect the public health and welfare of the
community; therefore, a public necessity exists for the inclusion of the Tract within the District.
VII.
Said proposed improvements are practicable and feasible, in that the ten·ain of the Tract is
of such a nature that a waterworks system and sanitary and storm sewer systems and roads can be
constructed at a reasonable cost; and said land will be rapidly developed for commercial, multi-
family and residential purposes.
VIII.
A preliminary investigation has been instituted to determine the cost of the project
attributable to the Tract, and it is now estimated by the Owner, from such information as it has at
this time, that the ultimate ·cost of the development contemplated will be approximately
$42,000,000.
WHEREFORE, the undersigned respectfully pray that this Petition be granted in all
respects and that the City Council of the City of Denton, Texas, adopt a resolution giving its written
consent to the addition of the Tract to the District.
