PC-1 Presentation and discussion of City of Colleyville Special Events
Recreation and Library Director Mary Rodne presented this item and briefed the
City Council.
Councilmember Wollin questioned staff regarding if the Haunted Trails is scheduled
to be held this year. Director Rodne replied yes.
Councilmember Wollin questioned staff regarding if the Haunted Trails would be
combined with the Fall Festival at Colleyville Center for next year. Director Rodne
replied yes.
Councilmember Wollin stated she liked having Red, White & Sousa at the
Colleyville Center, and she received many compliments for that event.
Councilmember Wollin questioned staff regarding the naming of the tree lighting
event, since it could not be called Holly Colley Holiday. Mayor Kelly responded
that is could be called the Christmas Tree Lighting event.
Councilmember Wollin suggested moving the tree lighting event to a Friday
evening versus a Tuesday evening for greater attendance by the school aged kids.
City of Colleyville Page 1
City Council Minutes September 2, 2014
Councilmember Wollin questioned staff regarding if having the event on a Friday
night will affect staffing needs, since it will be held at the Library. Director Rodne
replied no.
Councilmember Mogged questioned staff regarding if football season is over at
that time. Mayor Kelly responded playoffs would be taking place, but the regular
season would be over.
Councilmember Hart questioned staff regarding what would be the name of this
event. Director Rodne replied not knowing at this time, but would appreciate
feedback.
Councilmember Wollin questioned staff regarding if additional trees could be added
for the community to decorate. Director Rodne replied there would be room for
one additional tree.
Councilmember Short questioned staff regarding what differentiates these special
events from some of the other City events, like the Library reading program.
Director Rodne stated the other City events are held by the individual
departments, and they are smaller events.
Councilmember Mogged questioned staff regarding if the number of attendees for
the fall event is anticipated to be like the Red, White & Sousa event. Director
Rodne replied yes.
PC-2 Discussion of current policy regarding building and facility rental to
community groups and the general public
City Manager Jennifer Fadden presented this item and briefed the City Council.
Mayor Kelly stated the Colleyville Center has a kitchen facility for the purpose of
serving and having food at events, which the other facilities do not.
Councilmember Wollin added it is not a catering kitchen, it is more like an
individual home kitchen.
Mayor Kelly stated the Senior Center does not have staff to hold events like
Colleyville Center. City Manager Jennifer Fadden concurred.
City Manager Jennifer Fadden stated if events were held at the Senior Center, as a
back-up facility, staff would recommend managing those events through
Colleyville Center’s staff.
Councilmember Mogged stated maybe the Senior Center should just be considered
as an overflow facility for civic or charity organizations so that it remains limited in
usage.
City of Colleyville Page 2
City Council Minutes September 2, 2014
Mayor Kelly stated the rental schedule should not be changed.
Councilmember Mogged stated the Senior Center is not a premier facility like the
Colleyville Center.
Mayor Kelly stated he thought the Senior Center will be a multi-use facility. City
Manager Jennifer Fadden stated there was not consistent City Council direction
given to proceed in that direction.
Councilmember Mogged stated he would like the primary use of the Senior Center
to remain consistent with its current use.
Councilmember Putnam stated it should be at the Colleyville Center Manager and
her staff’s discretion about who uses it and how. Councilmember Wollin
concurred.
Councilmember Wollin stated she wants to recoup the cost with the pricing.
Councilmember Putnam asked City Council if the Senior Center usage could be
limited to Colleyville organizations. Councilmember Wollin agreed.
Mayor Kelly stated there will have to be certain parameters set in order to help
manage the events, especially since the events take place within non-open hours.
He added staff will have to be available to manage the site for cleaning and such,
which may require overtime.
Councilmember Putnam questioned staff regarding if the open space behind the
Senior Center would then become available for renting. City Manager Jennifer
Fadden replied parks are not available to be rented, only park pavilions are rented.
Mayor Kelly added the open space could be used for overflow, but it could not be
restricted from other users for that same timeframe.
Mayor Kelly stated alcoholic beverages are not allowed in City parks, which could
be an issue with the facility rental.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated if the Colleyville Center is booked for profit rentals,
there needs to be an overflow to take care of the Colleyville non-profit
organizations.
Councilmember Putnam stated there could be some constraints on the uses.
Councilmember Wollin concurred and added TABC would get involved when alcohol
is present at events.
Mayor Kelly asked City Council if they are open to looking at opening up the Senior
Center and other City facilities to use as overflow for events, such as the second
floor of the Library.
City of Colleyville Page 3
City Council Minutes September 2, 2014
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated being willing to look at the Senior Center, since it is a
freestanding building, but not the second floor of the Library. He stated there will
need to be a policy put in place for these rentals. Councilmember Mogged
concurred.
City Manager Jennifer Fadden stated the second floor of the Library is not rented,
and it was only used when the Colleyville Center was closed for renovation.
City Manager Jennifer Fadden asked City Council if the main hall of the Senior
Center is to be considered for overflow, or would any other rooms be available.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor suggested staff to come back with recommendations.
Mayor Kelly concurred.
Councilmember Short stated there may be some perfect uses for which the second
floor of the Library would be well suited and appropriate. He stated there are
other facilities such as the Rock House and the Webb House that could be used as
well.
Councilmember Hart stated it could become a staffing issue.
Mayor Kelly stated the Library inventory could be compromised if the event is
taking place while the Library is closed. Councilmember Short stated it could be
used during regular Library hours. He added the room should be considered,
especially if there is going to be a policy regarding the usage of City facilities.
Mayor Kelly stated if multiple sites are being scheduled, it may become necessary
to have additional staff to manage and oversee the events. Councilmember Short
stated there could be several options for set-up.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated the Library is not set-up so that the main sections
can be closed down from access.
Mayor Kelly stated there are several churches who open up their facilities for
meetings and such.
Councilmember Wollin stated there are civic organizations that book far in
advance, and when a business comes in to book, and they are paying the for-
profit fee, there needs to be some alternatives given to the civic organizations to
be able to move their event so that the revenue can be received by those
businesses paying the higher fee.
Councilmember Mogged questioned staff regarding the timeframe in which this
policy needs to be decided upon. Mayor Kelly responded there are alternative
dates to consider for the Colleyville Lions Club Fish Fry event, it could be held on
Friday, October 10 versus Saturday, October 11.
City of Colleyville Page 4
City Council Minutes September 2, 2014
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated there needs to be a policy codified.
Councilmember Hart stated the Senior Center has been underutilized, but this
should be done in such a way that this will work, especially given staffing
concerns.
City Manager Jennifer Fadden stated staff has suggested a proposal if City Council
would like to head in this direction. She stated it would allow the Lions Club to
utilize the Senior Center for this October event, and then staff can come back with
more details of City facilities and usage.
Councilmember Wollin suggested using the Colleyville Lions Club Fish Fry as a pilot
study to provide more guidance for the future.
Councilmember Hart questioned staff regarding alcohol usage. City Manager
Jennifer Fadden stated an exception would have to be granted.
City Manager Jennifer Fadden asked City Council if they have any concern with
proceeding forward with moving the October event to the Senior Center.
Councilmember Mogged replied having concerns about the fee schedule.
City Manager Jennifer Fadden stated the fees are set by ordinance, and staff does
not have the latitude to modify those fees. Councilmember Mogged stated there is
not a fee schedule for the Senior Center. He added this particular event could be
looked at in a different way, as to not bind ourselves by charging the same fee as
a premier facility such as the Colleyville Center.
Councilmember Short questioned staff regarding if the ordinance is specific to a
rental for the type of room and the day of the week. Colleyville Center Manager
Leslie Hill replied the Senior Center cost for cleaning is about half of the Colleyville
Center cleaning, from a staffing perspective. She stated there may be an element
of having to move assets, such as tables and chairs, from the Colleyville Center to
the Senior Center to be able to provide the same level of service, which would
require the flexing of staff time.
Councilmember Wollin questioned staff regarding if overtime would be required.
Manager Hill replied yes.
Councilmember Mogged questioned Jim Fletcher, Colleyville Lions Club, regarding
the number of attendees for the Fish Fry. Mr. Fletcher replied about 120.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor questioned staff regarding the occupancy level for the main
hall at the Senior Center. Recreation and City Events Manager Lisa Escobedo
replied 108.
Mayor Kelly stated the Senior Center could handle this event.
City of Colleyville Page 5
City Council Minutes September 2, 2014
Mayor Kelly stated he wants all of the community groups to be treated the same.
Councilmember Wollin questioned staff regarding if there is a fire code issue with
the fish fry. Fire Chief Brian Riley replied not as long as they are cooking outside.
Manager Hill stated the rental rates are deeply discounted for the non-profit civic
organizations, with Friday rates at $800 and Saturday rates at $1,600.
Mayor Kelly suggested he would like staff to work up the pricing to ensure the
costs are recouped. City Manager Jennifer Fadden concurred.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor suggested having the Colleyville Center Advisory Committee
look at the costs. He added he would like their input.
PC-3 Discussion of potential amendments to Chapter 5-Tree Preservation in the
Land Development Code
Community Development Director Ron Ruthven presented this item and briefed
the City Council.
Councilmember Mogged questioned staff regarding why a resident would have to
permit for a tree removal if they are not planning to clear-cut their lot. Director
Ruthven replied there would have to be some administrative discretion given for
certain circumstances.
Councilmember Mogged stated the AG zoned properties may want to remove trees
to help with the grazing of animals; do we think we can manage this better than
the actual property owner, and do we want to review those instances?
Mayor Kelly stated it is good for someone to have a look at those circumstances to
ensure homeowners are not clearing their lot in order to save the developer
money.
Councilmember Mogged suggested the acreage being set higher than one acre,
maybe 10 acre lots.
Councilmember Wollin stated the community will become outraged, and therefore
we are trying to prevent that from happening again.
Mayor Kelly stated it “may be required”, it is not stated that it “will or shall be
required.” Councilmember Wollin concurred.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated being concerned for creating too much government
overreach. He stated we keep running into issues when there is an agreement,
City of Colleyville Page 6
City Council Minutes September 2, 2014
but the developers do not follow through with what has been agreed upon. He
stated he does not want to monitor people’s yards.
Mayor Kelly stated if we are a Tree City, and as the costs of development rises,
there may be a need to look at certain situations, to try to prevent issues.
Councilmember Putnam stated one acre is typically not a big development,
therefore loosening the constraint a little, but not infringing on individual
homeowners’ rights, still sends a message that we want to enforce this principally
for the purpose of development, and should be part of the permitting process.
Director Ruthven asked City Council if the lot should be larger or should the area
of protected trees be larger? Councilmember Putnam replied both.
Councilmember Putnam questioned staff regarding if there is a way to establish
some sort of penalty that basically states if a property is sold for the purposes of
development, after a certain amount of time from which the trees have been
cleared, then they are going to pay something additional at the time of permitting.
Director Ruthven stated it would be difficult to monitor when the property is sold.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated he does not see any incentive in the proposed
amendments for developers to plant trees for future generations.
Mayor Kelly questioned staff regarding the definition of a protected tree. Director
Ruthven replied that would be any tree not considered exempt that is six inches or
larger in diameter width outside of the pad site area.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor questioned staff regarding the height at which the caliper is
measured. Director Ruthven replied four and one-half (4 ½) feet.
Councilmember Mogged questioned staff regarding what if the tree is dead.
Director Ruthven replied it is no longer protected.
Councilmember Short questioned staff regarding if there is a concern for the
clearing of brush and trees within a tree preservation area. Director Ruthven
replied the idea is to incentivize the preservation of those areas.
Mayor Kelly stated City Council has some discretion with specific tree preservation
requirements with requested zonings such as Planned Unit Developments.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor questioned staff regarding if the tree policy would apply to a
straight zoning district request. Director Ruthven replied yes.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor questioned staff regarding if there could be something put
in place to be more punitive to those who are not meeting these requirements.
Director Ruthven stated staff is proposing a sign be placed on the property to help
City of Colleyville Page 7
City Council Minutes September 2, 2014
better explain the tree preservation area, and it will have information on the sign
so that people driving by can call if they see the trees are not being protected or
being removed from a protected area.
Mayor Kelly questioned staff regarding if the City is limited to only charging $500
per caliper inch. City Attorney Matthew Boyle replied no.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated he does not want to be punitive on the businesses.
Director Ruthven stated the civil penalty has been added at a cost of $500 per
caliper inch.
Mayor Kelly stated the rate needs to be punitive and not built into the cost of
actually doing business. He stated if it is high enough, the subcontractors will
want to ensure the trees are protected so that the developer is not penalized.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated trees add value to properties, and they help draw
businesses and residents to Colleyville. He added he wants developers to have to
plant substantial viable trees.
Councilmember Mogged stated there needs to be something in place that will
make the developer hold true to any agreements made relative to tree protection.
Councilmember Mogged questioned staff regarding if there is a chance of putting a
minimum diameter on cedar trees, like cottonwood trees, so that the resident can
remove them while they are small. Director Ruthven replied yes.
Councilmember Short questioned staff regarding if the signage would include
everything in the protected fencing area, such as overgrowth. Director Ruthven
replied anything below six inches could be removed; however, within a tree
preservation buffer, the intent is to leave that area alone.
Councilmember Wollin questioned staff regarding construction workers parking
under the canopy of the trees. Director Ruthven replied if the tree is within the
right-of-way, they are allowed to park underneath the tree; however, if the tree is
not located within the right-of-way, they are not allowed to park underneath the
tree.
Councilmember Wollin suggested having a penalty in place for those instances.
Mayor Kelly stated the people parking equipment under tree canopies, in which
those trees are not exempt, need to understand that there is a penalty for
damaging those trees.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor questioned staff regarding if a working easement is only for
a temporary use, and are the uses defined in the easement, or are they the same
as what is used in the right-of-way. City Attorney Matthew Boyle stated every
City of Colleyville Page 8
City Council Minutes September 2, 2014
easement comes down to the language contained in it; therefore, it is not always
formalized in the easement, but in a letter that allows the developer to use their
property for purposes of parking construction vehicles.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated the documents would need to specify those uses.
City Attorney Matthew Boyle stated most easements are not specific.
Mayor Kelly questioned staff regarding if the City is responsible to get involved in a
private matter such as this. City Attorney Matthew Boyle replied it is still a
violation. He added granting someone permission to park in your front yard, on a
non-paved surface, is still in violation of City ordinance.

Development Corporation
