Due to the Brazos county geography then one (or more) of these three things must happen.
1) we must start building "up" or at least more compact than we are now.
2) we must build more bridges across the Brazos and Navasota to allow for expansion.
3) we must expand College Station School district south, west and east.
3) Can school districts merge? Of all of those possibilities Snook is the best.TAMU1990 said:1) nobody wants that.doubledog said:

2) ok
3) We are locked in. Navasota ISD has their boundries inside south Brazos county. Iola and Bryan are to the east. Snook is to the west; Mumford and Bryan to the NW. These communities will be the beneficiaries of growth as well. There is no where to expand.
CS could grow about 10 miles or more south and 20 miles down hwy 30 and east to Nav River.TAMU1990 said:1) nobody wants that.doubledog said:

Navasota ISD starts just past Millican Reserve on Hwy 6 and the eastern side of that community off of Wellborn is Navasota ISD.woodiewood1 said:CS could grow about 10 miles or more south and 20 miles down hwy 30 and east to Nav River.TAMU1990 said:1) nobody wants that.doubledog said:

I thought Bryan made a land grab along hwy 30. or was that just BISD?woodiewood1 said:CS could grow about 10 miles or more south and 20 miles down hwy 30 and east to Nav River.TAMU1990 said:1) nobody wants that.doubledog said:

I just assumed when the OP stated BCS growth they meant the cities and not the two school districts.TAMU1990 said:Navasota ISD starts just past Millican Reserve on Hwy 6 and the eastern side of that community off of Wellborn is Navasota ISD.woodiewood1 said:CS could grow about 10 miles or more south and 20 miles down hwy 30 and east to Nav River.TAMU1990 said:1) nobody wants that.doubledog said:

Austin's best years were around 2000 when they were around 900k-1000k. They didn't have one decent sports bar at the time though.

You don't want no growth, but slow and managed growth.BiochemAg97 said:turfman80 said:

Interesting point, and probably valid.
Makes me wonder what is argument for less growth or no growth?
What would a city govt do to moderate growth, other than completely sucking and driving everyone away?
Austin tried the "don't build roads" and we won't grow strategy and that was a disaster. Not only did it not stop the growth, but then it put them decades behind on building roads.
