DISH is an incorporated Denton County town originally named Clark. The town changed its legal name in 2005 through an agreement with the satellite-television company. Its unusual name is useful context for searching records: older deeds, ordinances and references may still use Clark.

### Check at the address, not the town name

- Include both Clark and DISH when researching older property or municipal records.
- Use the town’s planning and zoning contacts to confirm the rules for the actual parcel.
- School attendance zones, flood risk, HOA obligations, utilities and property taxes follow the exact address. Use current records: [TEA school district locator](https://tea.texas.gov/families-and-students/school-district-locator/school-district-locator?ref=tx.co), [FEMA flood maps](https://msc.fema.gov/portal/home?ref=tx.co), [county appraisal districts](https://comptroller.texas.gov/taxes/property-tax/county-directory/?ref=tx.co).
