Correction

Marsha Gavitt, director of the Voters United to Preserve Flower Mound, said during the public participation section of the July 21 Flower Mound Town Council meeting that citizens are drifting from SMARTGrowth, Master Plan and protective ordinances. The subject of her statement was incorrect in a July 25 article, "Heated Topics." In addition, the article misrepresented statements by Gavitt and Rebecca Belcher, president of Flower Mound Citizens Against Urban Drilling. Gavitt advised against "inappropriate interactions" with members of the town’s Oil and Gas Board of Appeals before they vote. Belcher said it is not the community’s responsibility to "ensure profits for developers who make poor business decisions."
