1. A Neighborhood Revitalization Study of the Fox Avenue
Corridor in Lewisville
A neighborhood revitalization study of the Fox Avenue corridor
in Lewisville was conducted in the fall of 2005 and the spring of 2006 by the
Texas A&M University Target Cities Program. The Fox Avenue corridor neighborhood
study area is bounded by Main Street on the north, IH-35E on the east, Bellaire
on the south and
Old Orchard on the west, with Fox Avenue being the central east-west road. The
study area was further divided into seven sub-areas according to the block group
areas defined by the U.S. Census for further analysis.

2. Sustainability Indicators for Texas
Sustainability is essentially a question, an important question affecting
our communities, our nation, and the world. The question is: how much can we
consume right now without compromising our future? At current rates of consumption—of
raw materials such as land, fossil fuels, even water—the earth’s
capacity may be unable to sustain future population growth. Sustainability
is a relatively new subject of study and has been defined in several ways.
