False Alarm

 Late last week, one of our neighbors noticed a guy driving down the flood control ditch.  He stopped about a hundred yards south of the road and put up a sign.

Well, that certainly didn't seem right.  Why post a sign where the chances of anyone seeing it are slim to none? 

Sure the fellow was up to something nefarious, John retrieved the sign and posted it beside the road. Then he posted a notice about it on our neighborhood Facebook page.

The sign was a notice of public meeting about an organizational meeting for a municipal utility district.  We are not in a MUD, and don't want to be, so it generated quite a bit of concern.

Turns out, the fellow had been posting the notice exactly where it should have been - at the northern border of the proposed utility district.  The folks who are developing the property just south of our subdivision are trying to get one - MUD 517 - set up prior to building anything.
