Lone Wolf, as weather allows, to work based on recent direction from the city engineer.

In areas where Lone Wolf Construction has no asphalt or only one layer, expect installation of two layers upon verification of culvert placements. Our engineering firm has also been looking at drainage and is noting areas where ditch elevations need to be confirmed and adjusted. That process and rainy weather are the causes of the construction delay.

Some residents have called about their drives not being asphalt or concrete. Plans called for replacing as necessary; not upgrading. Lone Wolf will soon be ordering and installing mailboxes. New ones will be larger and made of a durable hard plastic. They will also have a small compartment underneath the mail box. Maintenance will also be easier. Lone Wolf may work with you to allow keeping a unique or decorative mailbox. We forward any concerns on other matters to our inspector.

The Phase 1 project is complete. The construction company, Pavecon, will be under a two year maintenance bond should any issue arise. The plan is to then seal coat the roadway every 6-7 years to ensure at least 30 years of service to the community.

Please keep inappropriate vehicles and motor bikes off our roadways. We often receive calls about children on four wheelers, motor bikes, etc. causing near misses with vehicles. Several adult drivers and neighbors witnessing such incidents have have serious concerns about the potential for traumatic injuries and property damage.

Four candidates applied for places on Talty's municipal election ballot. The seats up for election were for mayor, two full city council positions and the last year of an unexpired council position.

Since only one candidate applied for each available position, the election has been cancelled Those who filed were declared elected. Those elected to two year terms are Mayor Frank Garrison, Councilman Bobby Crowley and Councilman Courtney McGrath. Councilwoman Judy Trevino, who was appointed to the council seat left vacant when Mayor Garrison moved up from mayor pro tem, will finish out the remaining year of that seat.

We encourage you to become informed about other applicable local elections to be held May 4.
