Introduction
If you live amongst other people you will have opportunities to
have your heart warmed and your eyebrows raised. Here are some events
and happenings I felt compelled to comment on.
2008
There
are many great families that live in Trenton High Meadows. One of
them are our just across the street to the southwest of our home.
The Hass family are staples of our neighborhood.

The economic fluctuations of 2008 "caused" a number of
foreclosures in our neighborhood. One was across the street at 120 Tiger
Lane. The property got in such a state that the storage building blew
over and the wind began removing roof panels and blowing them into the
street. Despite multiple calls the property was only mowed once and the
new owners had to clear the trash. Clearly
Amy Smith and the
Coldwell Banker Apex Realty of Rockwall, Texas will not go the
extra mile to sell your property and should likely be avoided.
120 Tiger Lane July 2008
Fortunately a young Trenton High School coach and his family purchased and moved in to the home at 120 Tiger
Lane. They are a dear young family and a welcome addition to the neighborhood.

There are some that in spite of
multiple requests choose to ignore the deed restrictions of the Trenton High
Meadows subdivision. (Fannin County Sheriff Department is less than useful
here as well). The deed restrictions state in part the following:
Article I, Use Restriction of the Declaration of Covenants,
Conditions and Restrictions for Lots one through 73 of the Trenton High Meadows
Addition state as follows:
1.03
No Lot, or any portion
thereof, shall be used or maintained as an auto wrecking or salvage yard, or as
a dumping ground for rubbish, trash, garbage or other waste.
-
1.04
No Lot, or any portion thereof, shall be used for the
purpose of storing junk automobiles, nor shall any portion of any Lot be allowed to have the appearance of a Junk or
wrecking yard.
-
1.06
No building material or debris of any kind shall be
placed or stored upon a Lot except during
construction.
Most everyone in Trenton High Meadows keep
their property clean and well groomed. 121 Tiger Lane is an unfortunate exception.

material in clear view.
The trash pile burns at 121 Tiger Lane on September 6,
2008.
It is not like the fire starts in some mysterious manner
and the owner does not know about it.
Our neighbor down the street was very upset by Obama's election in
November 2008. He had always proudly flown the Stars and Stripes with
the
United States Marine Corps flag since we have moved to 119 Tiger Lane.
The morning after the election the
Marine Corps is gone the
United States flag is hung in distress.
Neighbor distressed over Obama's election - October 5 2008.

2008 the flag pole was telescoped and is no longer in use.
The Purcell family (Mrs. Purcell works at Trenton Middle School) moved just down Tiger Lane to the west in December 2008.
The Purcell Family moves in just down the road.
We have some other great families in our neibhorhood that have been here longer than us.

116 Tiger Lane.
2009
New construction a couple of lots east on Tiger Lane turned out to be the new home
of a former student technologist of mine, Jessica Stapleton. Jessica will
marry her fiancé, Justin Rushing and move in to the house in early June
2009. Jessica is a successful free lance photographer (Exposures
by Jessica) and Justin an electrician with
Frisco ISD.
The Rushing home under going the
final phases of construction.
2010
The property owners of Trenton High Meadows whelmingly passed a referendum to initiate county take-over of the roads of the subdivision. Fannin County Precinct 2 Commissioner Stan Barker got a crew right to work maintaining the roads soon after the vote was official.
