Flower Mound officials are moving forward with plans to construct an arts center within the River Walk mixed-use development after hosting an opportunity for public feedback Dec. 11.

The overview: Town Manager James Childers said this project is an opportunity to develop a catalyst and an amenity within the River Walk, which could draw more foot traffic to the mixed-use development. The 3.67-acre site that will house the future arts center was previously envisioned as an amphitheater adjacent to the River Walk’s restaurants, according to the development documents.

“The general idea is to be able to put something that has people on a regular basis,” Childers said. “From there, the people go to the restaurants, they go to the shops.”

Diving deeper: Additionally, town officials extended Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone No. 1, which includes the River Walk, for five years last December. Denton County has also agreed to contribute property tax revenue within the zone.

“We anticipate the performing arts center benefiting communities across our county and region,” Denton County Judge Andy Eads said.

Denton County My Health My Resource Center announced it was targeted by a data breach by an “unauthorized party” on or around Dec. 24, 2024, which affected 108,967 patients, the center confirmed.

In a nutshell: Denton County MHMR Center stated in a news release Dec. 30 that officials took “immediate action” when they noticed unusual activity on the center’s network. After hiring a third party to investigate the activity, it was determined that the breach occurred between Dec. 24 and Dec. 25, 2024.

The center received official results after a more in-depth investigation Oct. 10 that determined nearly 109,000 former and current patients’ information was possibly impacted, including names, addresses, dates of birth, medical history and medical records.

What’s next? The center stated it has partnered with a third party to ensure additional security is being taken and that its policies and procedures related to data protection are being reviewed.
