During the late 1990's the City Council attempted to disband the city. The large Solana development was deannexed to Southlake, while several large tracts of land were deannexed to Fort Worth, Texas. A local district judge ruled the deannexations in violation of state law, and the properties returned under Westlake jurisdiction. A new city council is attempting to stimulate growth, as much of the city borders Texas State Highway 114, a major freeway in the area.
