 Creek State Natural Area

 One of the clearest-flowing streams in the Texas Hill Country is under 
 threat from the Urbanczyk family’s (aka Silesia Properties) plans to build 
 a D.R. Horton Homes subdivision of 2,396 new homes on the 592 acre Honey 
 Creek Ranch just outside of Bulverde, Texas.  
 Polluted storm and wastewater from this high-density subdivision will flow 
 into Honey Creek upstream of Honey Creek State Natural Area and Guadalupe 
 River State Park.  Also threatened is Honey Creek Cave, the longest cave 
 in Texas and a direct conduit to the Edwards Aquifer and nearby drinking 
 water supply wells.
 Both the Honey Creek State Natural Area and the Guadalupe River State Park 
 are Texas taxpayers’ investments and serve as recreational destinations 
 and as sanctuaries for native aquatic species. Building six homes per acre 
 on the Honey Creek Ranch will degrade the water and the surrounding parks 
 that bring considerable value to local residents and visitors, both in 
 economic and recreational opportunities.  In time, the water flowing 
 through Guadalupe River State Park could become unsafe for swimming and 
 contact recreation.
 Sadly, if done right, the Honey Creek Ranch subdivision could be a model 
 of sustainable development.  Efforts to work with the Urbanczyk’s 
 representatives have thus far proven futile.  We need your help to mount a 
 campaign to make sure that one land flipping family does not despoil a 
 treasured Texas ecosystem.  Please sign this petition to Save Honey Creek.
