ACTION TO BE TAKEN D Discussion Only D Procedural Change [3J Possible City Council Policy Recommendation D Information Only Page l...of 1 Russell Chance's Eagle Scout Project Russell Chance BSA Troop 28 (817) 481-3777 russell. chance@attbi.com PROJECT DESCRIPTION The project that I plan to do will consist of the building and placing of two purple martin houses, the repair of several benches in the amphitheater in the nature center as well as the laying of mulch in the amphitheater. The benches in the amphitheater are necessary for the area to provide its regularly used services. The laying of mulch would provide a more natural setting for the amphitheater and the people who use it. The martin houses would attract the visitation of the martins to the area which would further the natural atmosphere surrounding the nature center. The building of the martin houses would take place at my house which is located in the city of Colleyville and is only a couple of miles away from the Nature Center and would provide easy transportation to the location where the martin houses would be placed and the other work would be completed, The project would take place later this fall in November or early December. This time frame would allow for a cooler climate for everybody who will be working on this proj ect. All of the work that this project would encompass would be completed by my fellow scouts, adult scouters in my troop, my close relatives, and I will be supervising and helping at the same time. Only adults will do the cutting of material that requires power tools or other dangerous tools. All safety precautions and instructions will be carefully looked at and supervised so that no harm will come to any of the workers, PROJECT BENEFIT This project will benefit the Colleyville Parks and Recreation because in the spring of 2002 heavy rains caused flooding in the river that runs through the nature center right by the amphitheater and several of the benches were damaged. Some wood planks floated away and some of the stone was dislodged from the benches, The stone was recovered and will need to be repaired, but the wood will simply need to be replaced. These repairs will allow the amphitheater to be used to its full capacity as it was before the rains, The mulch that will be laid will provide those people that use the amphitheater a nicer setting than the dirt that currently acts as the floor. Although this mulch will not last forever, it will provide an overall better experience for the citizens of Colleyville for the time it remains in tact. The two martin houses that would be placed in the Nature Center would attract wildlife to the area, more specifically purple martins. Purple martins are known to be pleasant birds in nature whose diet consists mainly of insects including mosquitoes, With the recent public concern of the West Nile Virus that travels through mosquitoes the martins would be a welcomed visitor. The reduced population of other insects as well would be a welcomed comfort for park-goers, TIMELINE OF EVENTS November 4, 2002 Colleyville Parks and Recreation Board Meeting - Get Parks and Rec approval for project November 21,2002 (or earlier, November 14, 2002) Troop Eagle Committee Meeting - Get Troop approval for project Late November District Eagle Committee Meeting - Get District approval for project December 7, 2002 First work session - construction of Martin Houses December 14, 2002 Second work session - repair of benches, laying of mulch, and installation of Martin Houses December 21,2002 Bad weather make up day -+-I (Zl ... ~ (Zl - eo: ... ... ~ -+-I eo: ~ ~I I I I I I I 0 I rJ1 - '" '"1' 0 0 \0 * 0 * \0 * U tr) ........ 0\ 00 N N "T r--- 0\ trl c--' c--. c--.

Call (817) ~ 656-7275, Frl<Jay, September 13. 20021 Star-Telegram Let games begin in Northeast Tarrant ~ Local cities have ~ worked together to bring Olympic-style competition to the area in 2003 and 2004, It's not exactly the 20]2 Olympics, but the same Cooperative spirit that produced a Metroplex- wide bid for that competition has succeeded in attracting the largest annual multi-sport event in Texas to Northeast Tarrant County. The Games of Texas will be staged in succes- sive years in 2003 and 2004 in six area cities; Bed- ford, Colleyville, Hurst, Euless, and North Richland Steve Jacob Grapevine Hills, An estimated 10,000 athletes and 25,000 spectators are expected to fill local highways, hotels and sports venues during the four-day games July 24-27, 2003, and July 22-25, 2004, The estimated local economic impact $7 million each year, Opening ceremonies for the largest sporting event in local histo- ry will be at Pennington Field in Bedford and will include the tradi- tional parade of athletes, as well as flreworks and music, The Games of Texas Northeast Tarrant County (GOT NET) com- mittee, which includes representa- tives of the six cities, held a kickoff event a couple of weeks ago at the Colleyville Community Center, fea- turing former Olympians and a rock-solid display of organizatiooal unity. The games are produced by the Georgetown-based Texas Amateur Athletic Federation to showcase the state's Olympic hopefuls and pro- + vide competition for recreational athletes, The local games will include baseball, bowling, boxing, disc golf, fencing, golf, gymnastics, ice hockcy, judo, adult and girls soc- . I cer, swimming, adult and y;'uth ten- nis, track and ficld, and sand volley- ball. The event will give the area an ,opportunity to show off an impres- sive collection of sports complexes that have sprouted in recent years. The Texas Star complex and Dr Pepper StarCenter in Euless and the Blue Line Ice Complex and Rich- land Tennis Center in North Rich- 'land Hills didn't exist six years ago, All of the sponsoring cities have upgraded their facilities to create more-than-worthy venues, Northeast Tarrant cities tend to preach cooperative effort more than practice it, but this is a monumental feat of coordination between the six cities' park and recreation depart- ments. Each city is kicking in $10,000 each year to fund the event, relying on the entry fees and sponsors to fund the estimated cost of $200,000 each year. The cities have agreed to share the risk, either by covering the loss- .. es or sharing the profits (expected. to be modest either way), Jim Browne, North Richland r . Hills parks and recreation director, and Doug Kratz, Hurst assistant . director/recreation, spearheaded . the area's bid after getting feelers ,from TAAF that it would like to . return to the Metroplex after a 10- year hiatus, - The cities decided to host the . games for two straight years to take advantage of the organizing infra- structure created and lessons learned in the frrst year, Browne says he has been , impressed by the relatively smooth administration of the local civic . coalition. "Honestly, the cooperation has been much smoother than antici- pated, We [parks and recreation officials] know each o~er personal- ly and professionally, The process has been very democratic in terms of evenly distributing facilities and workload, Each city has a voice [on key committees], The whole experi- ence has been a shining example of teamwork," Browne said, If you want to be one of the 2,500 volunteers needed to put on the games locally, call the parks and recreation department of any of the six sponsoring cities, Ste~ Ja<ob is StM.r~r.!lJJ/Nor1"e.lSlpubHsher.i(817) 68543955 sW~star.te!e-qram.com 128 I wwwstar-telegrall1.L:()1l1 N -----------~---- NORTHEAS Council bends rules to spare grove COLLEYVILLE The Colleyville City Council voted 4-0 Tuesday to allow developer David Bagwell to build a subdivi- sion just north of McPherson Park. Old Grove, which will be built on 45 acres Jennifer Radcliffe near John McCain Road, will have about 70 lots and 12 acres of open space, The council allowed the lots to be slightly smaller than city ordinances require so that a grove - considered one of the oldest in the city - could be saved, Mayor Donna Arp said, "Saving the grove of trees was 3n essential part of sav- ing our rural atmosphere," she said, "They stand on one of the highest hills in the city." A red caboose Burlington Northern Sante Fe railroad has donated a red caboose that will be placed in Bransford Park. The caboose will com- memorate the city's tics to the railroJd. It will be placed beside the Webb House, the 88-year-old home of a for- mer railroad section fore- man, The hOllse is hei ng ren- uV;Hcd. Resident Daria Dennison was instrumental in securing the donation for Colleyville: Her late husband Dick . worked for the railroad for 40 years, "They're donating it and painting it and moving it," Dennison said of Burlington, "They're doing it all." It will be an asset to the community, Dennison said. "Trains are very important to our town and our history," she said, Both the home and the caboose are expected to be open in November. City officials hope the park can someday be a stop for a commuter train on the Cot- ton Belt rail line. Jennifer Radcliffe, (817) 685-3875 J r ad c liffe@lslar-telegram.com -... _._..._-------~---..
