Excerpts taken from a letter to the editor in the Ellis County Observer:

• Jamie Wickliffe was on the Midlothian City Council for 12 years 1990 - 2002. Why does she want back on council Now? Is the real estate market in such bad shape? Does she need inside information to boost her income?
• We know why some realtors join clubs and organizations; it's called "NET WORKING." I not saying it's a bad thing. It's something people do to protect their own best interest above all others.
• Why get on City Boards and Commissions? The answer is for inside information.
• With all the real estate deals under investigation do we really want another realtor on the city council? We already have Bill Houston with GMAC Real Estate isn't that plenty?
• I know two councilmen that spend 20-30 hours per week researching information so they can make the best decisions they can, given the information they receive from staff. I believe Jamie Wickliffe has enough on her business plate. When will she find the time to give the required attention needed for council business?

If it is true that a man's home, or a woman's home... is his or her castle... then it's probably time to Call The Movers !

This truly impressive home measures 3,209 sq ft... and on the inside it looks even larger. The first floor features an incredible formal living and dining on either side of the entry foyer, and then opens into a fabulous family room with a back "wall of windows."

The family room is two stories high, and also features a two-story stone fireplace with raised stone hearth and wood mantle.

The family room is open from the catwalk on the second floor above... which connects the two bedrooms and full bath on one side, and the game room in the middle of the second floor.

An additional bedroom, and a separate media room are at the far end of the catwalk... which again overlooks the family room below. What a great area for entertaining.

This floor also makes a great teen-suite... if that suits your family makeup.

The kitchen is definitely for the gourmet. Granite counter-tops, forty-two inch raised panel cabinets, high ceilings, a pass-thru bar to the family room, a huge walk-in pantry, and a family-sized work-island complete the gourmet feel.

If you are ready to go from "Just Browsing" to "Let's Get Serious," this home is now ready for occupancy. For your own personal tour, call the NewHome Hotline at (817) 929-3400. You may also visit Karen Anne Stone's website at www.NewHomeHuntersDFW.com .
