Driftwood residents are pushing Dripping Springs city leaders to reevaluate site development plans for a local wedding venue future expansion.
Earlier this month, Mark Black, owner of the controversial Mark Black Wedding Venue on Crystal Hills Drive in Dripping Springs’ extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ), submitted new site development plans to Dripping Springs city officials to build additional structures on the property. This new revelation caused heartburn for those who oppose the project.
Carlos Torres-Verdin, president of Friendship Alliance, an organization representing a group of neighbors, said Black started construction of the new structures before the city approved the changes, which he argues is illegal.
