Dam Again, And Again, And Again. (** Update**)

**Update** ~ The Grand Prairie, Texas City Council "tabled" the vote on this. They removed it from the "Consent Agenda," and then opened it for discussion. Mayor Pro-Tem Jim Swafford led the discussion and thanked Rosemary Reed, President of the Westchester Association of Homeowners (WAHO), for her email expressing serious concern about these gas gathering pipelines ~ in light of the current MORATORIUM on all gas drilling activities in the 3,000 foot Exclusion Zone around Joe Pool Lake.
