Residents urge pause and review of Toll Brothers shoreline trail on Brushy Creek

Two residents who live opposite the Crestline Toll Brothers development urged the council to review a newly constructed second trail along Brushy Creek that opens private shoreline to the public 24 hours a day. Mary Bullen said the second trail "actively promotes unmonitored public access" and raised concerns about destroyed trees, bird habitat loss, runoff, and liability near a roughly 15-foot downstream drop at the dam.

Bill Kenyon, who lives nearby, showed video of floods and debris and told council that the creek can turn into a "raging river" during heavy rain; he warned that unattended 24‑hour access to that shoreline is hazardous and said, "if this proceeds within a year or 2, somebody in Cedar Park is gonna die without question." City staff indicated they would review applicable authorities and regulations and report back.
