In 1989 residents of Glenshire said they would sue the State of Texas over the construction of Beltway 8. Bill Hill, the Glenshire Community Association president, threatened to file an injunction if the state did not address the concerns that Glenshire residents had.
As of 1996, the portion of Beltway 8 south of Interstate 69/U.S. Route 59 was being built, increasing Glenshire's road access.
