Here's the full story from S-T staffer David Wethe on Dale Resources' pitch to neighborhood groups in Colleyville, Southlake, North Richland Hills, and Keller for leases. The offer could apply broadly to people in Colleyville and Southlake. Don't have a lease offer from Dale? Read this story to find out more on what you can do to find out if you're eligible.
Here's S-T staffer Adrienne Nettles' story from earlier this week on the Southlake City Council's consideration of changes that would allow drilling closer to homes.
Pictured is a map of drill sites that Dale Resources says Chesapeake has secured in the affected Northeast Tarrant County area. Dale reps handed the map out to neighborhood leaders at a meeting Tuesday night.

AFTER READING THE STARTLEGRAM THIS MORNING, JUST THOUGHT YOU FOLKS MIGHT LIKE TO KNOW THAT OUR GROUP WORKED WITH DRILLER DIRECT (INSTEAD OF THROUGH LAND MEN SUCH AS DALE) AND WERE ABLE TO NEGOTIATE NEIGHBORHOOD PROTECTIONS FROM DRILL SITES AND $25,000.00 PER MINERAL ACRE AND 26.5% ROYALTY INTEREST. THE LARGER AMOUNT IS BECAUSE WE ARE NOT PAYING LAND MAN INTEREST FROM OUR INTEREST IN MINERALS.
