*** External Email - Exercise Caution *** Dear ICRI Committee members, We are also residents of Great Hills - and live on Rimner Cove - a cul-de-sac off of Rain Creek Parkway between Fire Oak and Lost Horizon. It has come to our attention that a small section of Great Hills (along the west side of Rain Creek Parkway and cul-de-sacs between Fire Oak and Lost Horizon) have been carved out from District 10 and moved to District 6. This includes our home. The great majority of Great Hills is and remains in District 10, while this small section of Great HIlls has been carved to now be a part of basically a Williamson county region. We do not agree with this proposed change. We also believe that the communication about these proposed changes was too limited. We believe that we should have received notification, through the mail, that our homes were in a "change" zone. We did not receive any such communication to our knowledge. We believe that this change does not make sense. While we realize that there are a lot of factors that go into redistricting - and a certain balance is wanted between the color of people's skin, their political leanings, etc - there is also the practical aspect about the neighborhood being represented as a whole, and interests of that geographic area, regardless of race or political leaning. We do not believe that our interests will be served by becoming a part of District 6 - by the mere fact that the great majority of our neighborhood (Great Hills) is being represented in another district, of which we will have no say. Please consider moving this group of homes back to District 10 - we ask you to prioritize what is best for the homeowners that have to live with these decisions. We left voice messages for Matt Dugan and Lisa Rodriguez - and received a call back from Lisa Rodriguez. We would like more information about further action we can take to make our opinions heard. It looks like there is a meeting scheduled for December 15. Hopefully our letter above can be read and shared with the council, as we are unable to attend this meeting. Please let us know what else we can do. We look forward to hearing from someone to understand the rationale for the change as well. Thank you …
