Benders Landing Estates Community
Spring, TX 77386

Dear BLE Community,

LGI Land is attempting to obtain community support for their proposed re-plat of a part of Benders Landing Estates Section 6 that lies north of and at the easternmost end of Rayford Road. LGI has circulated an on-line petition to request our support. The Board of Directors of Benders Landing Estates POA stand by our community members living on E. Balsam Fir Circle and N. Ossineke Drive that will be directly impacted by this re-plat and DOES NOT support the re-plat or this cynical petition. Further, we ask that all BLE members NOT support this petition.

When the BLE community was originally developed by LGI, our homeowners along the detention lake north of Rayford Road at its easternmost end were advised by LGI that this then wooded reserve would never be developed. Further, LGI entered into an agreement with the South Montgomery County Fire district (Montgomery County ESD No. 8) to deed land at this end of Rayford Road for the construction of a much needed South Montgomery County Fire Station No. 5. LGI reneged on both of these promises, clear-cut the formerly wooded reserve and have refused to deed the land for the fire station. MC ESD No. 8 is currently in litigation with LGI to force them to deed the land for the fire station that they still want to construct and know is much needed to significantly reduce the emergency response time to BLE.

Now LGI proposes to “beautify” the land that they clear-cut and deed land for the fire station that they already promised to provide. This, in exchange for the development of 18 new lots on this reserve and with that breaking another promise to our homeowners that this reserve would never be developed.

LGI would like our community members to believe that this development is necessary in order to provide for the fire station. This is not true! LGI just needs to do what they promised and deed the plot for the fire station to MC ESD No. 8 and leave the remainder of the land as a reserve. The Benders Landing Estates community should insist that these actions take place and stop LGI’s threats to the safety of our community by continuing to block the construction of South Montgomery Fire Station No. 5.

Please DO NOT SUPPORT the on-line petition for the BLE Section 6 Re-Plat.

BUT PLEASE SHOW YOUR SUPPORT FOR OUR COMMUNITY BY SUPPORTING THIS PETITION.

Thank you,

Benders Landing Estates Board of Directors
