Flower Mound voters approved four more years of dedicated street-maintenance funding on Nov. 3, keeping the town’s combined sales tax rate at 8.25%.

NBC DFW’s unofficial results showed Proposition A passing with 26,753 votes in favor and 8,533 against, or 75.82% approval. The Cross Timbers Gazette reported the same totals.

The town’s election page confirmed passage based on unofficial returns from both Denton and Tarrant counties.

The measure continues a one-quarter-of-one-percent sales tax for street maintenance and repairs. Had voters rejected it, the combined rate would have dropped to 8%, and the town would have needed other funding to maintain the affected services.

For fiscal year 2025–26, the town estimated the tax would contribute $4.6 million to its Street Reconstruction Fund. Future revenue will depend on taxable sales.

Repairs and reconstruction across town

The town’s street maintenance page says $19.8 million from the tax has supported maintenance, reconstruction, personnel and 16 major projects since the 2022 renewal.

Those projects include:

  • Bordeaux Way reconstruction
  • Colonial Drive reconstruction Phase II, from Whitney Lane to Homestead Drive
  • Edgefield Trail reconstruction
  • Flower Mound Road panel replacement, from Long Prairie Road to Quail Run Road
  • Forest Vista reconstruction Phase II, from Morriss to Chancellor
  • Hillside Lane reconstruction
  • Lakeside Parkway panel replacement
  • Lopo Road reconstruction
  • Melody Court reconstruction
  • Prospect Drive reconstruction
  • Raven Circle reconstruction
  • Timber Creek Road and College Parkway intersection reconstruction
  • Timber Creek Road panel replacement, from John Court to Kirkpatrick Lane
  • Timber Valley Drive and Fairfield Lane reconstruction
  • Wichita Trail reconstruction at Cardinal Drive and High Meadow
  • Wood Creek Circle reconstruction

The funding also pays for maintenance crews and work such as pothole repairs, asphalt overlays, crack sealing, alley repairs and snow and ice removal.

Renewal history

According to the town’s dedicated sales tax history, voters first approved the street tax in November 2007 and renewed it in 2011, 2015, 2019 and 2022.

The 2022 vote occurred early so the town could combine it with crime-control and fire-control tax elections and reduce election expenses.

This year’s approval extends the street tax for another four years, through 2030. The election results remain unofficial pending canvass.
