Today's riddle: What do you call a one-legged Big Foot? 🤔 (Answer below!)
1. League City moves to regulate data center development (galvnews.com) — Lewisville is cited as one of several Texas cities already requiring special-use permits for some data center projects, a step League City is now considering to better control power, water use, and neighborhood impacts. With state leaders tightening scrutiny on data centers, these rules could shape where high-energy facilities locate and how they affect local utility costs. Residents can watch how this trend may influence future development standards at home.
2. Denton County Commissioner Bobbie Mitchell honored for role as an elected leader - Cross Timbers Gazette Southern Denton County Flower Mound (crosstimbersgazette.com) — Lewisville readers are seeing longtime local leader and former mayor Bobbie Mitchell honored with a statewide Distinguished Public Service Award, while her recent work helped secure the city's first permanent Boys & Girls Club in a converted fire station near Lewisville High School. The new club offers nearby students a safe, supportive place after school and strengthens youth services in Denton County.
3. Four suspects arrested in Colorado after murder in Texas, US Marshals say (kktv.com) — Lewisville residents now know four suspects have been arrested in Colorado in connection with a Sept. 11 fatal shooting at a local apartment, for which Lewisville police obtained a murder warrant. Federal and Colorado authorities tracked the group after they left Texas, and the adult suspects are awaiting extradition back to face homicide charges.
4. Gregory-Portland, Sinton, George West, Kenedy in Texas football poll (southtexasnews.com) — Lewisville football fans will notice their team sitting at No. 12 in the latest Dave Campbell's Texas Football Class 6A rankings, keeping the Farmers in the statewide spotlight.

5. ICE Arrests 121 During Summer Enforcement Initiative Near Dallas (texasscorecard.com) — Activity around Lake Lewisville drew intense federal attention this summer as ICE and Texas Parks and Wildlife arrested 121 people, including two men accused of running an illegal boat rental business on the lake.
