comment[edit]

Galleria: I edited the article to make it clear that the Galleria is not in Addison. But since it's not in Addison, I'm wondering if it should be mentioned at all. Any opinions? HMishkoff 15:53, 20 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Galleria, redux: I removed the reference to the Galleria, it seemed silly to include information about businesses that are not actually located in Addison. HMishkoff 15:32, 23 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Is Addison Road from Addison? Their bio says they're from Dallas. Royalbroil 01:26, 11 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Town vs. City[edit]

I looked and did not find any substantial difference in government between Texas municipalities known as "cities" and municipalities known as "towns". There's the home rule issue, but that is only related to population size. Addison then should be listed as a "town", because they call themselves a town. There is no difference between being incorporated as a town and being incorporated as a city in Texas. Also, the U.S. Census lists Addison as a town.Inkan1969 (talk) 17:06, 12 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've dealt with this issue in the past on the article for Flower Mound, Texas, and you are correct. I've changed it to reflect what you've mentioned here. The only thing that I didn't change was the labels for City Council and City Manager. Interestingly enough, unlike Flower Mound, they went with the "city" labels for those positions. Other than that, yes, the difference between town and city in Texas is simply what the municipality wants to call itself. – Runfellow (talk) 17:53, 12 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Alcoholic beverages by the drink[edit]

"Addison is a popular location for many Dallas-area restaurants because Addison allows restaurants to serve alcoholic beverages by the drink, while many nearby municipalities do not."

What? Which municipalities do not? Literally every town/city in DFW serves alcoholic beverages by the drink. Maybe that was true in the 1970's, when most of DFW was still dry, but it is certainly not true today. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:28E0:B670:BDD6:FD85:C0BB:38AE (talk) 17:06, 15 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
