" Oty oT Co//eYVi//e Parks and Recreation Department =~t ~ Meeting 11/01/99 Agenda # 4 Department- Subject: PARKS Discussion and Consideration of Ordinance For Tree Trimming and Removal Barry leBaron, Community Development Manager will discuss a proposed new ordinance authorizing the removal or trimming of tree limbs OVer street right-of-ways. Recommendation The Board is requested to review the attached proposed ordinance as an information item and provide feedback as deemed appropriate. ACTION TO BE TAKEN o DiSCUSsion Only o Inlbnnation Only o ProcedufC/I Change o PoSSible Oty Council Policy Recommendation Page~oT~ date: COJ.J.EYVIJ.J.E COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT MEMO October 26, 1999 memo to: Monica Walsh, Parks and Recrealion Manager \..- I ~ /(\b( ~ Barry LeBaron, A/CP, Community Development Manage~~ memo from: Subject: Attached Ordinance for Tree Trimming and Removal The PUblic Wor1<s Department frequently receives complaints from cilizens regarding low hanging tree limbs Over pUblic slreets. Currently there is no ordinance that establishes specific criteria for trimming or removing trees, which cause a pUblic nuisance within Ihe public rig hl-of-wa y. Earlier this year, during the normal process of Irimming and removing several problem trees, staft was confronted by citizens regarding the authority to perform this function. tn response to this concern, staft has drafted the attached ordinance, which clarifies the authority for trimming trees wilhin the public right-of-way, and establishes minimum criteria for visibility and clearance Over public street surfaces. The importance of having minimum clearances OVer a streel is also a concern of the Fire Department. From a pUblic safety perspective, fire department equipment and ambulance vehicles have difficUlty negoliating areas where tree limbs hang within 14' of a street surface. The ordinance includes a process for notifying an adjacent property owner when a tree is in violation. The ordinance establishes the fOlloWing criteria: 1) a tree, whether located on private property or not, which has Iim bs within 14' of the street surface is declared a violation of the ordinance. 2) certain trees located within the parkway which block the visibility of drivers located at a street intersection are also a violation of the ordinance. The notification process established by this ordinance would require written notification of the adjacent property owner advising them to /rim the violating tree within ten (10) days. If the property OWner fails to comply with this requirement, the Public Works Department would be authorized by the ordinance to trim the tree accordingly. There is no penalty for non-compliance. The ordinance also contains a provision for the removal of a tree located within the parkway (the space between the pavement and the property line) when it blocks the visibility at a street intersection. A tree which creates a visibility problem would only be removed upon the recommendation of a staff committee composed of the Fire Chief, POlice Chief and the Public Services Director. ORDINANCE 0-99-xxxx AN ORDINANCE TO AUTHORIZE THE REMOVAL OR TRIMMING OF TREE LIMBS OVER STREET RIGHTS-OF-WAY; DECLARING A PUBLIC NUISANCE; PROVIDING NOTICE AND ABATEMENT PROCEDURES; PROVIDING FOR A PENALTY FOR VIOLATION; AND AUTHORIZING PUBLICATION: WHEREAS, trees or tree limbs, when allowed to grow OVer or onto the parkway or pavement of a street right-of-way create a pUblic nuisance and can cause a hazard to passing motorists or pedestrians; and WHEREAS, in some cases such overhanging limbs have become obstacles to viewing potential oncoming traffic for motorists at street intersections; and WHEREAS, the City Council finds the need to establish minimum clearance requirements over street pavement surfaces, and provide a method for notice to owners of adjacent properties to maintain trees and tree limbs in a safe manner; and WHEREAS, notice of a public hearing before the City Council Was published in a newspaper of general circulation in ColleYVille at least 15 days before such hearing; and WHEREAS, the City Council is of the opinion that the proposed ordinance herein effectuated furthers the purpose of achieving public safety and is in the best interest of the citizens of the City of col/eYVille; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF COLLEYVILlE, TEXAS: Section 1.

":"I #_ y, October 8. 1999/ www.slar-lelegram.com N -NORTHEAST TARRANT · FROM PAGE1B LI~BER NE Tarrant goingfor gold in Olympic bid From Page IB tee of Gt-eater Northeast Tarrant County. All that changed yesterday. Dallas 2012 Chairman Tom Luce met with NETroplex may- ors, city managers and chamber of commerce officials in what amounted to a regional show of support. Tarrant County Commis- sioner Glen Whitley and Birdville school district Superintendent Bob Griggs were there, represent- ing the interests of the county and the area's biggest school district. Luce also was guest speaker at a Colleyville Area Chamber of Commerce luncheon. Then several area mayors took Luce on a helicopter tour of potential venue sites in our midst. I'm cooling down on my fear that Dullas is taking over, and I'm warming to the idea that our leaders are finally realizing that for the NETroplex to playa big part m the quadrennial world games, We must live up to the Olympic creed: Faster, higher, stronger. As a self-appointed cheer- leader for the NETroplex, I'm glad someone is fmally showing Luce, a pillar of the Dullas estab- lishment, the following: Richland Tennis Center in North Richland Hills is a terrific site for tennis. The new BISD Fme Arts! Ath- letic Complex, with its 12,000 seats, is perfect for field hockey and possibly other events. Lake Gt-apevine cries out to host water skiing and sailing. The Texas Star complex in Euless would be wonderful for women's softball and archery. My anti-Dallas bias almost soured me on the idea of North Texas " ,. hosting the 2012 Olympics. . /I. I was angry that a Tarrant County man, Grady Hicks of Arlington, had conceived the idea but then ' .,handed this gem to ,.,"" Dullas, which now )'wants to pretend that c'almostevery event should be at Fair Parl2" I was doubly angry when I read the recent issue of D magazine and found no mention of greater Northeast Tarrant County for potential event sites (except for Texas Motor Speedway). And frankly, I was triply angry because I believed that officials in North- east Tarrant - the NETroplex --had dropped the ball since I suggested a year ago that we form the Olympic Commit- (More on LIEBER 00 Page 8B) DAVE LIEBER . NORTHEAST BEAT .~ . ~') - Pleasant Run Soccer Complex in Colleyville would do nicely for soccer practices. I could go on (Hurst Athletic Complex, Carroll Middle School's joint-use gymnasium, Walker's Creek Park in North Richland Hills) because the need for Olympic practice fields and preliminary-round venues is so great that even Dullas can't hog everything. "We're all in this together," Colleyville Mayor Donna Arp said yesterday. "A win for one is a win for us all." North Richland Hills City Manager Larry Cunningham, who organized yesterday's heli- copter tour, said, ''It's a situation where you support your own first, and if you don't make it, you sup- port your region." As Luce spoke yesterday, I could feel my paSsion for the cause increasing. He's a good salesman, yes. but he made some excellent points. Of the eight U.S. cities com- peting to host the 2012 Games, the can-do spirit of this region, the high level of private support and volunteers, the convenience of DallasIFort Worth Airport and the ability to build whatever is needed give North Texas a better than even chance. Luce mollified my anti-Dullas bias when he explained that the regional effort is called Dallas 2012 because the U.S. Olympic Committee requires one city to act as lead. "So forget the name," he said. 'This is, in reality, the North Texas Olympics." I was pleased to learn from Luce that D magazine got in trou- ble with the USOC for improper_ ly using protected Olympic slo- gans and trademarks in its Olympics issue. . And finally, I was thrilled see NETroplex public officia~ giving some serious public el to promoting our participatio, Luce talked about how the Olympics "is the biggest eco, ic event held in the world." He spoke of the $5 billion $6 billion taken into Atlanta ' the 1996 Games, the 80.000 created, the $200 million in ; sales tax revenue and the inf, structure left afterward. All that is well and good. there are other aspects of the Olympics that he didn't men that make this worth the hun The Olympic Games are j They teach children and remind adults about the valu sportsmanship and competit They give us something t for and enjoy. We meet people from all the world. We show everyone what great home we have. And we get to be the gra( hosts we are. . The idea of a North Texa Olympics was created in Ta' County. Now we must work bring as mucbof the gold b; oUr turf. And if and when N Texas wins the bid, we will join hands with Dullas ani! ; like the five Olympic rings. But until the final decish are made, NETroplex cities to fight for every scrap of tJ greatest pie in the world. y, biased If we don't fight for share, Du1las will get it all. Faster, higher, stronger. This is another form of Olympic competition. Da~ Lieber', column appears: 51 Th<sdays aocI Fridays. (817) 685-3830 www.star-kkgn:zm.comIdav -, fIJ = ....
