Goodland Development Overview Rylan Yowell of Provident Development presented to the committee an update on Goodland including long-range plan, next annexation phase, character imagery, parks/open space imagery and noting once all phases are constructed it would comprise about 5,000 acres; the development is double the size of downtown Dallas; adds 50,000 residents, which are more than the entire population of Cedar Hill, Texas; and this development will likely move Grand Prairie from the 16th largest population in Texas to around the 10th largest. Council Member Shotwell noted his concern is housing being in place first before the industrial. Chairman Del Bosque inquired on the quantity of farm roads/county roads that need to build out. Council Member Headen said asked for a breakdown of the properties, multifamily and single family. The committee thanked Mr. Yowell for update. 2. 2025 Federal Legislative Initiatives for Infrastructure Projects Managing Director Lisa Norris presented to the committee a proposed list for 2025 Legislative Initiatives for key infrastructure projects for the city. This information will be shared with Federal legislators to highlight the city's needs. Chairman Del Bosque mentioned the one pager prepared last year was effective and added this year he would like to include Hensley Field. Council Member Shotwell said he is in agreement to include Hensley Field as long as there is no cost to Grand Prairie.
