Looking For Truth in Addison? As we all know, there are at least two sides to every story. In Addison, Texas, lately, the second side of the story has been hard to find. Until now. The Truth in Addison website is up and functional and you owe it to yourself to check it out if you live in, work in, or play in Addison. Created by a dozen or so Addison residents, some of whom are former Town Council memers, www.TruthInAddison.com provides a perspective different from the picture painted by the current mayor and his merry minions. One of the reasons the website was created: "The Town is experiencing a climate of mistrust and divisiveness that has been fueled in large part by the fact that our residents are not receiving full and complete information." I urge you to read this editorial to ge...

Special Government Home Renovation Loan Program using Addison Texas FHA 203k Loans.     Many people are not aware of a special government loan program that is part of the Federal Housing Administration or FHA(a department within HUD). Existing home owners or potential home buyers can remodel and update their homes without having a higher cost second lien because of this FHA loan program.         However, this loan program doesn't allow for "luxury items" in your home such as a swimming pool, hot tub, or other accessories. Repaint, remodel cabinetry in kitchens and bathrooms, add wallpaper, replace appliances and flooring and even a add a room to an existing structure (which will increase the value of the homes square footage).         One of the biggest advantages to this government loa...

Now Open in Addison: Table 13. Ready for an upscale dining experience? Table 13, located on the south east corner of Belt Line Road and Inwood Road in Addison, Texas, is the place to be. Owner Mike McRae and chef Ted Reemtsma welcomed a couple dozen Addison residents for a group lunch at the beginning of June. The service was impeccable and the food was sublime. The restaurant gets its name from the number of original Rat Pack members. The art on the walls is slightly risque and the decor is evocative of that era in Vegas. Stop by for a liquid lunch and the $3 martinis (11-4), or visit during happy hour (4-7 weekdays) for selections such as The Sinatra 3,2,1 (3 fingers of Jack Daniels Sinatra Select, 2 ice cubes, and a splash of water). The drinks are a nod to the Rat Pack's hard drinki...
