Step 1: Add Your Name to the List
People-power can help ensure that our neighbourhood remains a safe and family-friendly environment by advocating for single-family homes only.
Step 2: Contact Your Representatives
Write and let those we elected know what you think. It always makes a difference when local people unite and make a stand against developers and corporations, for whom our interests are not a priority.

Stand Together for Responsible Development in Telfair
Your Questions Answered:
What is the purpose of this campaign?
The purpose of this campaign is to mobilize the residents of the Telfair subdivision to advocate for the responsible use of the land currently owned by FBISD. We aim to ensure that the land remains zoned for single-family residential use, preventing the development of high-density apartment buildings that could negatively impact our community.
What are the potential impacts of high-density housing?
High-density housing can lead to increased traffic congestion, overcrowded schools, and a strain on local resources. It will also alter the character of our neighbourhood, making it less desirable for families seeking a peaceful residential environment.
Wait… Could this affect my property value..?!?
YES!! However, it is important to note that the potential impact on property values is not a major concern to those making the decisions, and it is counterproductive to use this as your main argument. Instead concentrate on traffic flow, schools, crime, keeping Sugar Land sweet…
What is the timeline for the land sale decision?
The bid deadline is 12th November 2025 at 4 pm. Time is therefore rapidly running out for potential buyers to be made aware that Telfair residents are organising, and will oppose high density housing.
