Just the Facts with Mayor Ron Robertson — June 2024

Each year, the Town assesses our roads and plans for annual road maintenance in our community. The following work was approved by the Town Council.

Asphalt Spot Repairs: Orchid Hill Roundabout, Abbotts Lane, Blackjack Lane.

Pothole Patch: Copper Canyon Road, Chinn Chapel, Harlington Drive.

Crack Sealing: Valley Wood Court, Hyatt Drive, Jernigan Road.

The work is scheduled to start the week of June 10, barring any weather events. There will be a single lane closure as the repairs and maintenance are being done. Town staff will post the most current schedule of repairs on the town website. The following roads are included in this year’s repairs and maintenance project. We thank you for your patience during these repairs.

4th of July Annual Parade & Picnic

On Thursday, July 4, at 10 a.m., we will celebrate July 4th with our annual Parade and Picnic, and the Copper Canyon Police Department building ribbon cutting will take place at 11 a.m. The parade lineup will be at 9:30 at Copper Canyon Town Hall and will be led by Copper Canyon Police Department and the Denton County Emergency Services District #1. Immediately following the parade, everyone is welcome for hot dogs and drinks at Town Hall. We have activities for the kids, including games and face painting, which are always a big hit with little and big kids! So, bring the entire family and celebrate our country’s independence and meet your neighbors. A special thanks to Carol Owens and Kara Blumentritt and the Woodlands Women Club, for organizing and hosting this event for more than 39 years.

Meet the Copper Canyon Police Chief Breakfast

The Copper Canyon Police Department along with our Neighborhood Watch program will be hosting a “Meet Chief Roger Tighe” breakfast on June 22 at 9 a.m. at Copper Canyon Town Hall. Neighborhood Watch has partnered with Lantana Crime Watch, Lantana Cares and Denton County Emergency Services District #1 who will be bringing its always popular fire engine and first responders. This will be a good opportunity to meet one-on-one with Chief Tighe, hear his vision for the future of the Copper Canyon Police Department and answer any questions you might have. This will be a “family friendly” event and we encourage you to bring the little ones. This personal interaction is what allows Copper Canyon elected officials and staff to hear directly from residents and address topics of importance. For more information, contact Paula Castillo, Neighborhood Watch Chairman, at [email protected].

Flags and Fathers

The month of June brings two important days of celebration. Flag Day on June 14 commemorates the adoption of our flag of the United States. Copper Canyon has many US and Texas flags proudly displayed and a reminder of the patriotism and pride of our residents. On June 16 we celebrate our fathers, both past and present. This special day reminds us a “father” comes in different varieties and should be honored for their presence in our lives.
