The Argyle town council has taken over oversight of the Crime Control and Prevention District. This change was made through a resolution approved at a special council meeting. The council members will now serve on the board, replacing the current members.

The decision is intended to improve the efficiency of board decisions. It is not a reflection on the work of the previous board members. Some council members felt the previous structure was not effective.

Further details on this change are available from the Cross Timbers Gazette. The decision was made with a vote of 4-1, indicating some discussion and debate among council members.
