Hello Bartonville! I would like to thank Council Member Jim Roberts for his five years of dedicated service on the Bartonville Town Council. Jim resigned from Council due to increased professional responsibilities. His new position will require extensive travel and an unpredictable schedule over the next two years. Jim has been a strong advocate for our community, and we appreciate the time and leadership he provided during his tenure. To fill the vacancy, Council accepted applications and interviewed candidates at their July meeting. The Town Council appointed Richard “Rick” Lawrence to fill the vacant position. Rick previously served on the Board of Adjustment and was currently serving on the Planning & Zoning Commission prior to his appointment. We look forward to his continued service to the Town.
The Bartonville Community Development Corporation (BCDC) has approved funding in their 2026-2027 fiscal budget for a beautification project totaling $111,921. The project will enhance several key intersections and medians, including FM 407 & E. Jeter Road, IT Neely Road & FM 407, the median in front of the Lantana Shopping Center and E. Jeter Road & McMakin Road. These improvements will enhance the appearance of some of the Town’s most visible gateways and corridors while improving drainage and erosion issues.
Phase III of the E. Jeter Road reconstruction project remains on schedule. We appreciate everyone’s patience during construction, especially when Saturday work is authorized between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. These additional work hours help keep the project moving forward and minimize the overall construction timeline…
