large crowd at new site MANSFIELD Thousands of visitors found the 14th annual Mansfield Hometown Festival yesterday at its new and bigger location featuring an expanded roster of activities The sprawling site between RL Anderson Stadium and the Anderson Education Complex was home to arts and crafts jogging all-you-can-eat pancakes pumpkin painting pet shows music and even free flu shots and a placeto donate blood People seemed to prefer the new location with its cool patches of grass shade trees and a building for special events over the concrete at the previous site on Main Street downtown The chamber of commerce was expecting 25000 or more to attend the event City not outlining residential restrictions for creek plan ARLINGTON Although it's not quite a secret future property restrictions along the Johnson Creek corridor probably won't be a major part of the city's education campaign If voters approve funding for the Johnson Creek plan land near the creek will most likely face increased regulations that could include what kind of trees that property owners can plant whether they are allowed to erect a fence or what they can rebuild after a disaster such as a fire city officials said The city faced this issue before when officials created an overlay district ordinance for the Johnson Creek proposal in 1998 which was rejected by voters It brought opposition from property owners controversy and negative publicity for the project Some city leaders and political analysts say that considering an overlay district before this election doesn't make sense because it's not needed now and will only bring unwanted controversy to an already sensitive issue cure in Dallas 1- Fleece to Shawl Competition: 10 am Contest Kitchen -Country Cooking with Lillie Crowley: 1
