The sexual assault response team, known as SART, and its inaugural members will be tasked with writing protocols for local and regional processes for investigating and prosecuting sexual assaults, according to the resolution. “It’s important that we recognize these victims and that we do everything we can to help them,” Commissioner Dianne Edmondson said during a Nov. 30 Denton County Commissioners Court meeting. “I know we are doing a good job already here in Denton County. This will just enhance our eorts and make us much more responsive.” The team will also be responsible for collecting and maintaining data on the number of sexual assaults that are reported to local agencies and the subsequent investigations.

Lewisville to get newcouncil seat

BY SAMANTHA DOUTY

LEWISVILLE The city will see the addition of a new council member in May. The new seat comes after the annexation of Castle Hills to Lewisville, which accounted for an additional 18,000 people and 2,568 acres. Lewisville has ve council mem- bers, but a sixth will be added during the May local election. “In the broad scope, we felt that having that additional seat would provide for more representation and better coverage of meetings,” Lewisville Mayor TJ Gilmore said. With the new seat, the council changed from an at-large council to a district council. This means Lewisville is split into districts, and council members must live within the district they represent, but the seat is voted on by all of Lewisville,

Gilmore said. “It gives you the best of both single members and at-large options,” he said. Districts allow for council mem- bers to be a voice for that specic part of town, Gilmore said. Members also have to look at issues in greater Lewisville because they are voted into oce by all residents. “It means residents will have a greater voice in their local govern- ment, which is always a good thing,” he said. The additional council member, who will be required to live in the Castle Hills area, will bring a new perspective to council because no other council member lives there, Gilmore said. “We don’t necessarily have that same understanding of what is going on over there,” he said.
