The bottom line for Colleyville

Colleyville is not trying to be Frisco. It's trying to be the best version of itself — and it has codified exclusivity into municipal law. The city caps density at 1.8 dwelling units per acre (net, not gross), bans short-term rentals, and enforces one of the strictest tree preservation ordinances in the region. New subdivisions like Holt Farms yield only 10 homes on 12 acres — all $2.5M+ custom estates.

This is "scarcity by design." The city is fully built out, transitioning from infrastructure reconstruction (SH 26 widening) to lifestyle optimization (Heroes Park, luxury hotel). The tax strategy is elegant: develop commercial assets along SH 26 to generate revenue without burdening residential homesteads.
