Monday, October 19, 2026. Correction: Aledo's council approved a settlement Oct. 1 in the Dean Ranch annexation lawsuit against Willow Park; the terms are not public. An earlier version of this brief's headline and summary said the case was still pending. Aledo's council approved the settlement for Aledo and Fort Worth v. Willow Park, Beall-Dean Ranch, and Parker County on Oct. 1, per the draft minutes in the Oct. 15 council packet, and Willow Park's council voted 4-0 on Sept. 22 to accept and sign the mediated settlement agreement and mutual release, per the draft minutes in its Oct. 20 packet. The Ledger has not found a Fort Worth council vote on the settlement or a court filing closing the case, and the terms are not public. The headline and summary now say so; the body describes the case as of Aug. 20.

Saturday, October 17, 2026. Correction: Daily edition, Saturday, October 17, 2026. An earlier version of the ALEDO-FEST item named Toni Fisher, Parks Director, City of Aledo, as the contact. The City of Aledo's Annual City Events page names Director Erika Cooper-Bateman, Community Services; the item now does.

Friday, October 16, 2026. Correction: Daily edition, Friday, October 16, 2026. An earlier version of this edition's lead item called Willow Park's $10.1 million Squaw Creek Road-area measure a road bond. It is Proposition B, a vote on up to $10.1 million in certificates of obligation; the lead item now says so, and the Willow Park entry now names Proposition B.

Sunday, October 11, 2026. Correction: Willow Park Proposition B: voters decide $10,110,000 in certificates of obligation on Nov. 3. An earlier version of this story called Willow Park's $10,110,000 certificates-of-obligation measure Proposition A and said the city puts one question to voters. The city's election ordinance labels it Proposition A, but Parker County's sample ballot lists it as Proposition B; Proposition A on the ballot is the proposed Home Rule Charter.

Sunday, September 27, 2026. Correction: Aledo ISD board, Sept. 22: three 77-passenger buses for $486,539 from 2023 bond funds, class-size waivers at seven elementary campuses, and $197,333.39 in cell antennas for two campuses. This brief and the Sept. 21 edition described the class-size waiver memo as posted to BoardBook on Sept. 18, which listed classes of 23 to 27 students at Annetta, Coder, McCall, Lynn McKinney, Stuard, Vanda and Walsh. BoardBook shows that attachment was replaced on Sept. 22 at 11:29 a.m. The version now posted lists waivers at five campuses, Coder, McCall, Stuard, Vanda and Walsh, for kindergarten through fourth grade classes of 23 to 25 students; it does not list Annetta, Lynn McKinney or any fifth grade class. The Sept. 18 version is no longer available on BoardBook, and the Ledger has not seen a record of the board's Sept. 22 vote.

Sunday, September 6, 2026. Correction: Council takes up golf carts and e-bikes again, a county water agency, and a $932,729 FM 1187 engineering contract. An earlier version described the Axon contract on the Sept. 3 agenda as a restructured five-year contract. The chief's memo in the packet describes the existing contract as five-year and the proposed restructured contract as 10 years at a total cost of $829,576.12.
