Department: Parks and Recreation
Subject: Discussion and consideration of approving funds for trail development
The City of Colleyville will be constructing a 10' wide (5" thick) concrete trail along the
north side of McDonwell School Road from the Westmont Subdivision to the new Keller
Independent School District (KISD) school. The trail will switch from the north side of the
road to the south side of the road at the western end of the Clairmont Subdivision. The
total length will be approximately 4,000 linear feet. This trail is identified as a proposed
pathway in the City Council adopted "Colleyville Pathways A Citywide System Trail Master
Plan."
The cost of the trail project is estimated to be $197,000. Funding in the amount of
$25,000 is available in the sidewalk escrow account. The remaining balance of $172,000
is recommended to be funded through Parkland Dedication monies.
The City of Colleyville will also be constructing a 5' wide (4"thick) sidewalk along the south
side of McDonwell School Road from Remington Park to the intersection of the 10' trail
east of the new Keller Independent School District (KISD) school. The total length will be
approximately 1,300 linear feet.
The cost of the sidewalk project is estimated to be $27,000. Funding is available for this
project in FY04/05 sidewalk task force monies and the sidewalk escrow account.

The project is currently scheduled to be under construction in early March 2005.
The estimated project length will be 75 calendar days. Substantial completion will
be in May 2005, contingent on the weather.
Due to the new Keller Independent School District (KISD) school scheduled to be
opened in August 2005, it is very important to have a safe pedestrian/bicycle route to
the school. Without sidewalk access, parents, youth and the public will not be able
to walk to school without using the street. All of the schools within Colleyville have
some type of sidewalk/trail to access the schools. Keller Independent School District
(KISD) anticipates an enrollment of 350 students in August 2005 with peak
enrollment of 450 students and maximum enrollment of 600 students over five years.
Thirty five percent of the students will be Colleyville residents.
Staff will provide maps identifying these trail routes at the meeting. Staff
recommends using Parkland Dedication Fund monies in an amount not to exceed
$172,000 to fund the trail development along McDonwel1 School road.
