After last week's shock vote that barely refused the Backyard developer's demand for the right to build without the second entrance/exit, more confusion ensued.

First, it was claimed that there was some kind of commitment imposed on Hill Country Indoor to build a road through to 71. It is true that HCI would be required to do so if they opened a substantial outdoor facility as well but that is not a currently expected scenario and has no specific timeline.

Second, the ownership of the land that the Backyard would need to cross to reach Highway 71 was confirmed as 100% in the hands of a local investor named Jeff Kent. It was also clarified that he is the major investor behind HCI. There is no connection between the two that impacts the Backyard situation.
