Proposal for Services
June 11. 2003
City Of Colleyville
Trail System Moster Plan Updote
BoWmcn-!'v\eItOi Assocbtes (BI\.AA) proposes to update the city of Colleyville's trail system master
plan in the framework of the steps outlined herein. Resulting recommendations will address
the potential for pedestrian and bicyclist connections citY'vvide and to adjacent cities. The
plan will help guide decisions on development and preservation of the City's resources with
respect to parks, recreation. trails. and open spaces, and their relationship to the city' 5
r'esidential and commercial interests. The updated plan will aid the city in the development
of its citywide non-motorized transportation and recreation system.
Deliverables for this project include a bound reporJ outlining implementation
recommendations; and an exhibit map showing planned. programmed end existing trails
vv'ithin and adjacent to the city.
PROJECT APPROACH
BMA's comprehensive approach to non-motorized planning will result in an on- and off-road
plan that considers existing resources and plans, as well as future needs, while maintaining
flexibility for unknown circumstances. Input from city stoff, citizen committees, and local
citizens who have knowledge of local needs and resources will be critical to the successful
development of the plan. BMA will work closely with staff and designated stakeholders to
identify critical planning issues and key resources.
Existing city planning documents (comprehensive master plan, thoroughfare plan, park
master plan. zoning and land-use plan. current plans for major roadway projects, etc.) will
provide the framework to guide planning considerations. Field surveys and selected site
assessments will be conducted at various times during the project to gather data necessary
for the on-street Bicycle Level of Service (BLOS) analysis and to update the team on local
resources and current community development patterns.
After the assessment data is evaluated, and compiled into a conceptual plan, it will be
presented to city staff and key stakeholders for review and input. Emphasis will be given to
the non-motorized transportation relationship to existing and planned developments,
thoroughfares and greenway corridors, and their potential connections from the residential
neighborhoods to existing and future schools, parks, and other key destinations throughout
Bowman-r'-1elton Associates, Inc.
bicycle and pedestrian planners
the city, as well as potential connections to adjacent communities. Consideration will also be
given to potential for integration with the capital improvements program.
The current trail and sidewalk plan I,vill be updated, refined and modified to include
recommendations for on-street bicycle connectivity. resulting in a city-owned citywide non-
motorized master plan for bicyclists and pedestrians. which \Nil! be presented to City Council
for.adoption and authorization to publish the final document.
The following proposed scope of work is bosed on discussions and follow-up conversations
with city staff. SMA believes that given the firm's past experience with Colleyville, a plan can
be prepared within approxir-natel'/ a seVerHTI(,nth tin~e frame, with app!'oval and publication
in early 2004. Phases and tasks associated with the completion of the Colleyville Pathways

COLLEYVILLE - The construc-
tion of the first phase of the city's sec-
tion of the Cottonbelt Trail will begin
this month, creating a path for hikers,
bikers and in-line skaters.
The 10-foot-wide concrete trail will
run along the north side of the Cotton
Belt rail line from Bettinger Drive to
John McCain Road. The 2.3-mile trail is
part of the Cottonbelt trail system,
which will eventually connect to
Grapevine, Hurst, North Richland Hills
and other communities in the region.
Mayor Donna Arp said Colleyville
has been trying to start work on the
trail since she took office six years ago.
But the yearlong project was delayed
as the city waited for funding and
worked out problems with a pipeline.
"I'm pleased after all these years
that we are fmally getting the Cotton-
belt started," Arp said. "Even though
it's been slow, it will be a beautiful

leyville. North Richland Hills
expects to begin construction
on the first phase of its trail in
late May along the south side
of the railway from Browning
Drive to Precinct Line Road.
The 4.1-mile trail will cost $2.54
million, and North Richland
Hills will pay 20 percent of that
from a half-cent sales tax dedi-
cated to parks.
"The main benefit is some-
one can get anywhere in North
Richland Hills on that trail -
bike, walk, rollerblade - all the
way to Grapevine," said Bill
Thornton, assistant director of
parks and recreation in North
Richland Hills. "The plans are
ultimately to carry that trail
system eastward past Coppell

Preparing for an invasion of athletes
By NATHAN SANDERS
STAR-TELEGRAM STAff WRITER
BEDFORD - The Texas
Amateur Athletic Federation
2003 Games of Texas are still
2 ~ months away, but execu-
tive committee chairman
Kevin Fralicks can already feel
the excitement.
"I really, to this minute,
don't think that everyone
understands the magnitude of
this event," Fralicks said
Thursday. "We're talking
about over 2,500 competitors
in track and field alone."
More than 7,000 Texas ath-
letes will converge on North-
east Tarrant County from July
24-27 to compete in 18 events
ranging from softball to judo,
Rock climbing and extreme
sports also were recently
added to the list.
The Games of Texas, the
largest multisport event in the
state. serves as the state cham-
pionships for five officially
sanctioned TAAF sports: track
and field, boxing, golf, swim-
ming and tennis. Competitors
in those events must qualify at
one of the regional meets. The
remaining events are open to
participants of all ages,
"What's coming to town
here are the best of the best,"
Fralicks said.
Six area cities - Bedford,
Colleyville. Hurst, Euless,
Grapevine and North Rich-
land Hills - are sharing host-
ing duties. The Northeast Tar-
rant County area will also host
the Games in 2004.
This year's Games will
begin with track and field and
golf ~n July 14. Opening cere-
monies are at 8 p.rn. on July 25
at Pennington Field in Bedford.
Admission to all events is
$5 for a one-day pass and $10
for an all-weekend souvenir
pin pass. Both passes are good
at all 26 venues.

Who should lead Colleyville?
Colleyville residents dre looking
for a real man to lead this city. Joe
Hocutt is that man.
Joe wants to preserve our rural
quality of life and mdintain Col-
leyville's existing character. He has
a vision of quality commercial
development and has strongly sup-
ported the Town Center and Vil-
lage at Colleyville.
Joe supported the new library
and doesn't favor raising taxes.
Dave Lieber has praised Joe,
writing in a Sept. 6 column that he
was "one of the best elected offi-
cials I've seen" and that he "pays
attention, learns the issues and is
tough as nails."
The April 16 Star- Telegram
endorsement of Joe said: "After
serving for two years on the City
Council, Joe Hocutt offers Col-
leyville the best opportunity for a
fresh start, one that will put politi-
cal bickering behind and will
accentuate the city's positives."
Please join me in voting for Joe
Hocutt for mayor.
Fred Ballinger, (olleyville
.
I'm voting for Richard Newton
as the next mayor of Colleyville.
He has served the community
well during the last 14 years and
has the experience and ability (()
lead the city into the futme.
As a lifelong resident of this
area, I'm frustrated by the image
that his opponent and his support-
ers have created for Colleyville. We
are not all rich or elitist, as this
group would have you believe.
Newton understands and has
the best interest of every resident
at heart. He championed the recent
increase in the senior citizen tax
exemption and has always worked
to improve the quality of life for
residents without regard for social
status or income level.
He's truly a leader for all Col-
leyville.
Betly Bramlett. (01l0yvi11e
.
Colleyville residents can do as
the Srar- Telegram recommended
and vote for Joe Hocutt, who will
bring new vision and ideas to the
mayor's office. Or we can return to
the style of government we had in
the 19905 when his opponent bcld
offlce.
When my son was on the base-
ball team that Joe coached, the boys
and their parents liked Joe for his
positive attitude. He has kept that
attitude on the City Council.
Joe solves problems; he doesn't
just talk about them. He wants to
bring new business to the city. He
wants to establish a "hot line" so
people can call him whenever they
see a new business or restaurant
that would be a good fit for Col-
leyville.
He constantly works to improve
parks and playgrounds and has
been very active in building our
library and Community Center.
Vote for Joe Hocon on Saturday.
Mel Manuel. (olleYVllle
.
Cotlcvvillc needs d mayor \vith
the experience, intellect and
demcJnor to tackle the difficult
issues facing the city. That's why
we're supp0l1ing Richard Newton.
Throughout his public life in
Colley vii Ie, Newton has worked
with people representing opposing
views to develop mutually benefi-
cial solutions to problems.
He led the efforts that resulted
in the baseball, soccer and tennis
facilities we are all so proud of. He
also led the efforts that bave
allowed to city to build the Com-
munity Center, the Justice Center,
the City Hall and the library.
Newton's vision for Colleyville
includes open, honest and fair gov-
ernment for all residents, without
special treatment for the elite few

Serving on the Colleyville Plan-

Joe Hocutt before he was elected to

over time.
Although Joe dnd [ didn't always
agree on issues, he articulated his

position ;If!t..'r he had listened to the
city's residents. to the other com-
missioners and to the city staff.
When he reached a decision,
there W:1S l1L'Ver any doubt that his
goal was to do what was best for
Colleyville. His decisions were
always based on good policy and
not personality.
Whether we dgreed or dis-
agreed, Joe was always open, hon-
est and respectful of the views of
others.
Joe Hocutt is Our only bope to
put political bickering he hind and
move Colleyville in a positive
direction.
Vote Joe.
Jo Ann Gasper, (ol:eyvllle
.
Both Colleyville mayoral candi-
dates tout their civic records.
With Joe Hocutt, Colleyville res-
idents will have a new li brary, new
KRT
long-term commcrciat develop-
ments, Town Center and the Vil-
lage, which in turn will attract oth-
er high-L.J.l.lality businesses. Hocurt
will build on the city's many posi-
tive attributes while providing solu-
tions for future issues_
Hocutt's opponent has a much
different report card. Collcyvilk
Boulevard is littered with closed.
boarded-up ventures whose gene-
sis came under Richard Newton's
watch. Newton's history clearly
exhibits his view of Colleyville's
commercial possibilities: fast-food
restaurants, gas stations and oil-
change businesses.
The people of Collcyvillc
deserve better. We need a mayor
with a vision who will learn from,
not relive and repeat, past bad deci-
sions. Joe Hocutt is that candidate.
A vote for Hocutt is a vote for T
the future of Colleyville. His lead-
ership will be instrumental in
bringing the unique, high-quality,
long-term, viable commercial
endeavors that Colleyville needs.
Mark A. Jones, (olleyvllle
.
The clear choice for mayor on
Saturday is Richard Newton.
His contribution to Colleyville's
progress during the past 15 years is
undeniable. The list of civic contri-
butIOns (atWetic fields, community
centers, fire protection, public utili-
ties) goes on and on.
Returning Richard to a leader-
ship position as mayor will allow us
to make sustainable progress in
economic development and city
services. As residents, we will again
be involved in planning that will
assure wise tax use and the
enhancement of community life as
well as personal r:roperty value.
A review of the candidates'
respective reSU1l1L'S yields the fact
that Richard is many times over"
stronger choice for the needs or
Colleyville.
For good things to happen, good
people must act!
Vote for Richard Newton before
the polls close at 7 p.m. Saturday.
Tony and Linda Licata, (olleYVlllo
.
I sometimes hear the complaint
that Colleyvilk mayoral candidatl'
Juc Hocutt has and will continue tu
run the city into debt.
Nothing could be further from
the truth.
Joe Hocutt saved the city more
than $1 million in the trash contract
with [ES!. He balanced the budget
while building the new City Hall
and library and shaved $1.3 million
in the process. Joe supports
improving intersections. not
widening roads, and that alolle
should save millions of dollars.
Joe Hocutt is not for raising tax-
es. Richard Newton has raised tax-
es twice.
It is a no-brainer that the next
mayor of Collcyville needs to herJue Hocutt.

Study of supermarket entry to continue
By EllEN SCHROEDER
STAR-TELEGRAM STAFF WRITER
COLLEYVILLE - The City
ouncil unanimously agreed
uesday to continue to study
ans for a rear entryway for
e new Market Street super-
arket in Town Center.
The council's decision
came after about a dozen resi-
dents said they are afraid for
their children's safety if traffic
pours out of the supermarket
into their subdivision. The
supermarket is expected to
open in early fall.
The council agreed to have
another meeting with resi-
dents and the developer with-
in the next week to try to work
out a solution_
"This was a fact-finding
meeting," said Charlie flem-
ing, who lives near the project.
At a meeting in May, the
council approved the place-
ment of the entryway at
Kingswood Lane and River-
walk Drive - directly in front
of the subdivision. Residents
later complained that the
council made the decision
without notifying them.
"My mistake was not having
the smarts or vision to repre-
sent your neighborhood,"
Councilman Rich Hendler said
Tuesday night. "I just hope it
will work out smoothly, quick-
ly, and it will be something
that makes us proud of Our
efforts together."
Mayor Joe Hocutt suggested
adding a four-way stop sign by
the driveway, staining a relo-
cated driveway to make it more
aesthetically pleasing and lim-
iting delivery times for trucks.
Developer Charles Hodges
said- the current location of the
driveway is the most attractive
option.
"It's pretty lonely out here
trying to please everybody and
doing the right thing visually,"
he said.

Volunteers needed to help
Games of Texas go smoothly
By ELLENA F. MORRISON
STAR-TELEGRAM STAFF WRITER
About 550 volunteer positions remain
unfilled for next month's Texas Amateur
Athletic Federation 2003 Games of Texas.
But officials are waiting to hear the starting
gun before panicking.
"I am trying to keep the faith. It's hard
sometimes," said Jerry Poteet, the volunteer
and special events coordinator for the city
of Euless, who is also coordinating volun-
teers for the games. "But I feel confident
between now and then we will get an
inflow of volunteers."
About 700 volunteers are required for
the four-day event, scheduled for July 24-27
in venues throughout Northeast Tarrant
Bedford, Colleyville,
Euless" Grapevine, Hurst and
North Richlarid Hills are host-
ing the 23 events at 27 sites.
More than 10,000 athletes and
20,000 spectators are expect-
ed to descend on the area,
which will host the 2004
games next summer, too.
The Texas Amateur Ath-
letic Federation is a nonprof-
it organization established in
1925 with members, such as
parks and recreation depart-
ments, that promote amateur
athletics.
The Games' of Texas, the
largest multisport event in
the state, serves as the state
championship for the offi-
cially sanctioned TAAF
sports of track and field,
boxing, golf, swimming and
tennis. Competitors in those
events must qualify at one of
the regional meets. The
remaining events are open to
participants of all ages.
Finding helping hands was
a chore, said Waco officials,
who hosted the games last
year. They needed to cover
700 four-hour shifts for 16
events. At the beginning of
the games, about 250 people

"We have a whole gamut of volunteer

list. "High-jump workers, lung-jump work-

fewer than needed, said
Andy Cedillo, Waco recre-
ation superintendent. Volun-
teers worked multiple shifts.
"We were still getting
people the day of," Gedillo
said. "You're talking about
people tripling or doubling
up their shifts. You're talking
bodies for three days in a
row, 12 hours a day."
Volunteers need to think
of the young people they will
help by pitching in, said Don
Bowles of Bedford, who
plans to work the boxing,
tennis and track and field
events. He said he will con-
sider other sports if the vol-
unteer shortage continues.
"Essentially, I think this is
a good chance for the com-
munity to put their best foot
forward for the kids," he said.
"I just think this is a really
good time to sort of bond the
communitit;s."

CottonbeltTrail work to begin
By BRENDA EDWARDS
BERNET
SPECIAL TO THE STAR-TELEGRAM
HURST - Engineering
and design of a l.4-mile por-
tion of the Cottonbe1t Trail are
expected to begin in July.
The City Council unani-
mously agreed Tuesday night to
pay Hurst's portion of the Cot-
tonbelt Trail project. The Col-
leyville City Council approved a
similar resolution this month.
The regional project is
expected to provide a hike-
and-bike route between Fort
Worth and Grapevine along-
side the Cottonbelt rail line.
Halff Associates of Fort
Worth received a $107,000 con-
tract from Hurst and a '$45,960
contract from Colleyville to
design a l.4-mile stretch of an
ll-milelink of the Cottonbelt
Trail that will eventually.
stretch from Grapevine to
North Richland Hills.
With Tuesday's resolution,
Hurst officially endorsed the
project, said Mario Canizares,
assistant director of communi-
ty services.
"1b.is is the last step before
we turn the reins over to Halff
to begin the work," he said.
Grapevine built its portion
of the ll-mile trail in 1999. Doug
Evans, parks and recreation
director for Grapevine, said the
trail begins near Pool Road and

Texas 26 and ends downtown.
Eventually, Grapevine's
portion will connect with a
trail through Colleyville, Hurst
and North Richland Hills.
Colleyville's portion is
being built in three phases.
The first phase. which began
in May, is expected to be com-
plete in winter 2004. It
involves creating a walkway
from John McCain Road to
Bettinger Drive, said Dianne
McWethy, Colleyville's deputy
city manager. The second
phase, a joint project between
Colleyville <!-nd Hurst, will
stretch from Bettinger Drive
to Precinct Line Road.
CoUeyville's first phase is a
joint effort with North Rich-
land Hills, which is working
on a link from Browning
Court northeast to Precinct
Line Road, McWethy said.
Colleyville's third phase, as
yet unfunded, will provide a
link from John McCain Road
to the intersection of Pool
Road and Texas 26 in
Grapevine, officials said.
Colleyville and Hurst are
contributing about 26 percent
of the funding for the phase

two project, and federal grants
are paying for' about 74 per-
cent, McWethy said. The total
l.4-mile project is expected to
cost about $1.4 million, with
Hurst contributing $282,056
and Colleyville contributing
$88,173, Hurst officials said.
Mike Moya, vice president of
Halff Associates of Fort Worth,
said the engineering and design
will take about 12 months
because ofpennit requirements
and because each city and the
Texas Transportation Depart-
ment must review the plans.
"It's like a three-way con-
tract," he said.
Hurst City Councilman
Richard Ward said the Cotton-
belt Trail will be a good spot
for walking his yellow
Labrador retriever, Tuffy.
"I'm glad that it's being

Colleyville will show the same
enthusiasm as Hurst has for

Colleyville seeks
renewal of tax
By ELLEN SCHROEDER
STAR-TELEGRAM STAFF WRITER
Colleyville officials will ask
'{oters to renew the city's half-
cent crime-control tax to help
repay debt from the new $7.7
million Justice Center, which
opened this month.
The city plans to have an
election Sept. 13 to ask voters
to extend the tax. The City
Council is expected to set the
date at a meeting in August.
The tax would help pay for
more police officers and
would better equip the Police
Department with vehicles and
computers, city officials said,
But the largest portion is dedi-
cated to paying for the Justice
Center.
"There's still another 17
years of debt for the building,"
City Manager Bill Lindley
said. "It allowed us to have a
state-of-the-art facility with
minimal financial impact to
the city." _
The tax puts the city's sales
tax at the maximum of 8.25
percent. It was originally cre-
ated by voters in 1999 for five
years.
- Since then, it has been used
to help pay for a school
r~source officer, laptops for
police .vehicles and radio
equipment for the dispatch
center.
- The city collected $681,619
from the sales tax last fiscal
year, according to financial
director Terry Leake, The rev-
eilUe has remained relatively
c~mstant throughout the years,
she said.
- With the opening of several
new businesses, including a
Market Street supermarket at
Town Center Colleyville, city
officials hope to keep sales tax
collections steady.
"We have more business

construction going on current-
ly in our city than we have I
ever had before," Mayor Pro
Tern Ginny Tigue said.
When setting the election,
the council will decide the
length of the renewal period
for the crime-control tax.
When the Legislature
approved the tax in 1995, it had
to be renewed after five years.
State law now allows the tax
to be extended longer if voters
approve.
"Personally, I think the I
longer, the better," Tigue said.
"It allows us to continue to
update the equipment; to also
start new programs and con-
tinue to make us one of the
safest communities in Tarrant
County."
Colleyville Police Chief
John Young said he would like
the crime-control tax to help
increase staff at the Police
Department, which has 31
sworn officers.
He hasn't yet determined
how many positions could
be paid for if the tax is
renewed.
"We would like to be able
to eventually grow to between
65 and 70 total people, but that
would take us some time,"

City Hall eyed
as senior center
~ At the request of senior
~ citizens, the City Council
will consider convertinq the soon-to-be-
vacated City Hall.
By ELLEN SCHROEDER
STAR-TELEGRAM STAFF WRITER
Seniors in Colleyville want a place to call
their own.
They envision a center where friends can
drink coffee in the morning, play dominoes in
the afternoon or share a potluck dinner at
night.
City Hall might be just the place, some
seniors say. The building on Bransford Road
will be vacated this fall when a new city hall
opens at the Village at Colleyville, The City
Council is expected to consider renovating the
old building or constructing a senior center
during budget discussions in August.
"We're wanting a place where seniors can

feel like they can go and drop
in anytime, like all these other
cities have," 72-year-old Con-
nie Hampton said. 'We seniors
of Colleyville kind of got
pushed into a back room."
Tbis year, Hampton submit-
ted a petition signed by 120
seniors asking that the City
Hall building be converted to a
senior center.
Seniors, who number about
1,100 in Colleyville according
to the 2000 census. don't have
a regular meeting place. Peo-
ple 65 and older comprise
about 5.6 percent of the popu-
lation, according to the census.
., About 30 meet for potluck
iinners Tuesday nights in the
LD. Lockett House, which has
a kitchen and a computer lab.
But the house is also used for
youth recreational activities,
Twice a month on Fridays,
about 65 seniors meet at the
Colleyville Center for a lunch
delivered by Metroport Meals
on Wheels.
Hampton said seniors need
more.
"We should have had some-
thing going for seniors years
ago," she said. "I'm not saying
cut the youth programs. We
need those, but we also need
to take care of the seniors."
Lisa Adan, a Colleyville
recreation specialist in charge
of seniors' programs, said she
has tried to start other senior
activities, but attendance was
poor. She said a permanent
senior center would help
boost interest.
"With the center not open
every day, it is really hurting
senior programs," she said.
"We are not outgrowing the
building we are in, but if we
did have another building, a lot
more people would come out

to the programs."
Adan said about 75 percent
of the people who participate
in the city's senior activities
are Colleyville residents, while
others come from nearby com-
munities.
"I think it's really important
to have a new senior center for
our citizens, whether that
building or another building,
I'm not sure," Councilwoman
Ginny Tigue said. "I think we
have to look at the cost of what
it would be to renovate or
build a new building."
Renovating the City Hall
building would cost $750,000
to $1 million, City Manager Bill
Lindley said. A new facility
could cost about $1.2 million,
he said.
Mayor Joe Hocutt said he
plans to ask the seniors what
they want.
"I want the seniors to have
a large voice in that," he said.
Resident Ed Havran, 82,
said the City Hall building is
ideal because of its central
location, size, parking avail-
ability and proximity to city
parks.
"If Colleyville is the com-
munity that it claims to be, it
certainly should have a senior
center worthy of its name," he
said.

there. I don't feel any pressure ,.
Lauren gravitated to the
sport because her older sister
Megan, 15, also participates in
it. Lauren said she believes her
sister has helped her to push
herself to be a better gymnast.
Now, the drive to work hard-
er comes at a time when Megan
cannot be a visual inspiration as
well as vocal inspiration. Megan
tore the anterior crudate liga-
ment in her right knce in March.
"Accidents happen,'. Laurcn

But it probably means a little
more for Lauren since she is a
home schooled student. Mary, a
former teacher in the Arlington
school district, has home
schooled all four of her children.
Yet Mary understands that it is
important for her children to
reach out to othervenues.
"I want all of our children to
bc well-rounded in every part of
their lives," Mary said. "I don't
want anv of them to be shel-
tered. 1 .want them to see the
\\'orld for what it is."
Pri nee is treating the Games
of Texas a little differently, The
T AAF season ended last month.
Prince still wants them to work
hard but also realizes that they
went through the grind of work-
iog out and participating in
meets for five months. Prince
knows that regardless of the
time of vear, she won't have to
