HDA seeking rooftops in 2016

The HDA (Howe Development Alliance) is setting a goal of 60 new home building permits for 2016 With the economy back in full-force (as far as North Texas goes), the City of Howe seems primed for a big year says HDA President Monte Walker "At this point, we don't have the amenities that Sherman or Denison offer, but what we do have is an inordinate amount of available prime real estate that is still pristine for development. Howe is a blank sheet of paper for developers and that is very attractive "

Walker says that a deal to finish out Summit Hill's remaining 114 available lots in phase one of four would be ideal and has been number one on the list of checkpoints for the HDA since the formation in 2014

"I know that everyone including myself wants a grocery store " said Walker "But the trouble we're having is finding a grocer to take the risk of having a population of only 3,000 support it If something develops with Summit Hill or another development that puts rooftops in Howe, we will be in a much easier position to attract one
