The residents within the area generally identified as DH-4 of approximately 347 acres located on the East side of Bonnie Brae St and West of Ft Worth Drive that were identified in 2010 as subject to certain non-annexation agreements due to their use for agricultural, wildlife management or timberland purposes as described in Section 43.035, Subchapter B, Local Government Code, do hereby wish to have new non-annexation agreements with the City of Denton to retain the status of Extraterritorial Jurisdiction (ETJ) beyond March of 2016 for those properties that still meet the eligibility criteria of §43.035 of the Texas Local Government Code.

Petition to Stop the Annexation into the city of Star

If the united front of at least 'DH4' falls on tone deaf ears and somehow fails again, I plan to challenge the annexation ruling legally.
Please read this. The 2019 State legislature severely limited forced annexations with HB 347. Why will you need agreements when the legislature passed these bills is my question. https://www.tml.org/DocumentCenter/View/1233/Annexation-Paper-TML-July-2019PDF
4377 S. Bonnie Brae There is no benefit to us in this annexation. I request that it does not proceed.
please stop the annexation
The only thing we get is additional taxes.
Council members, we have lived on Bonnie Brae since 2001. This is the 3rd annexation attempt in 15 yrs. Our Bonnie Brae community has continually expressed our desire to remain in the ETJ primarily because the city will provide us with no justifiable benefits in exchange for higher taxes and increased restrictions on our freedoms as property owners. I can not tell you the numbers of public meetings, personal meetings with council members, and hours of phone conversations that we have invested in defense of each annexation action by the city. I again appeal to each of you to allow us to remain in the ETJ. While the city may have interests, I believe that our rights and freedoms as property owners should superscede the tax benefits to the city. Thank you for your consideration. Emrie Wilkes 4045 S. Bonnie Brae St.

I've lived here for 20 years and stand to gain nothing by being annexed. The Denton Sheriff has been more than adequate for law enforcement, and the Argyle fire department has measured up as well. Annexation increases my taxes and adds restrictions to my life with no net gain in benefits.
