PC-1 Presentation and discussion of additional recycling opportunities
Strategic Services Manager Adrienne Lothery presented this item and briefed the
City Council. Norm Bulaich with Progressive Waste Solutions was also present to
answer any questions.
Councilmember Mogged questioned staff regarding if the leaf collection will be in
bags rather than the normal collection containers. Manager Lothery replied yes.
Councilmember Hart questioned staff regarding if missed bags would be picked up
during the regular trash service, if they are not collected on these special days.
Manager Lothery replied yes, it will be the resident’s choice to either have those
bags collected during the special recycling, or during the normal garbage
collection.
City of Colleyville Page 1
City Council Minutes March 3, 2015
Councilmember Wollin asked Mr. Bulaich where the bags will be recycled. Mr.
Bulaich replied the bags would go to the compost collection site located outside of
Kennedale.
Councilmember Wollin asked Mr. Bulaich if the same garbage trucks will be used
for these collections. Mr. Bulaich replied yes, but these bags would be all that is
collected in these trucks. He added this recycling program will be beneficial to
both Progressive and the City, even though it is voluntary. He added he hopes
that more clients will also begin using this service.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated residents will still be able to use their regular
collection days for these bags; however, we will want to encourage them to use
this recycling program. Mr. Bulaich agreed.
Mayor Kelly stated all communication to the residents will be emphasized in bold
print so that they read about this program.
Councilmember Hart questioned staff regarding if Progressive drivers will be
looking for the lighter bags, instead of collecting regular trash on these days. Mr.
Bulaich replied yes, the leaves should weigh less than trash; however, leaves can
get heavy too. He stated this is a good opportunity for the City, and it will be
available at no cost.
PC-2 Presentation of the Quarterly Performance Management Report
Strategic Services Manager Adrienne Lothery presented this item and briefed the
City Council.
Councilmember Mogged stated this is the first time we have seen the measures
without any “red” areas. He then questioned staff if there are any comments
relative to how the development workload has impacted development reviews.
City Manager Jennifer Fadden replied development has picked up, and all positions
within Community Development have been filled, with the exception of the
director; therefore, meeting the turnaround time for plan reviews will improve.
Executive Director of Development and Infrastructure Chris Fuller agreed, and
stated staff will do a better job to fulfill the expectations of City Council since the
positions have been filled.
PC-3 Discussion of the Glade Road Project
Councilmember Mogged stated he requested this item be added to the agenda for
discussion.
Councilmember Mogged questioned the City Attorney regarding the proposed
ballot language for the upcoming special election. City Attorney Matthew Boyle
read the following as the proposed ballot language: “Whereas it is necessary to
City of Colleyville Page 2
City Council Minutes March 3, 2015
protect the rural feel of the City of Colleyville and the community quality of life and
in order to protect mature trees along Glade Road and the property rights of
Colleyville Citizens living along Glade Road which was designed to be a residential
street. Therefore be it resolved that the City of Colleyville may complete the 5 foot
sidewalk on the south side of Glade Road but will not add a 10 foot sidewalk or
any sidewalk or trail along the north side of Glade Road. Be it further resolved that
the City of Colleyville may add left turn lanes and round-abouts deemed necessary
by polling of area residents but will not add medians to Glade Road nor widen
Glade Road in any other way or fill in bar ditches along the sections of Glade Road
that will result in the potential loss of mature trees and/or potential flooding of
homes.” For or against.
Councilmember Mogged stated the following, “Glade Road has been studied for the
last couple of years, and many comments have been solicited, and debate has
been intense. He stated in June of last year, City Council achieved a compromise
by approving the revamping of Glade Road from Bransford Road to Manning Drive.
He stated everyone seemed to agree that we needed to end driver frustration by
unplugging the bottle necks at the stop signs at Bluebonnet Drive, by cutting the
hill down and pulling the stop signs. He stated then it was agreed that the
Riverwalk Drive and Glade Road intersection would be fixed with a roundabout.
He stated the Bedford Road and Glade Road intersection was be improved, so that
cars could be seen and safety could be improved. He stated a roundabout was to
replace the four-way stop at the Bransford Road and Glade Road intersection as
well. He stated the design contracts for these proposed improvements then went
out; however, a proposition was submitted in October which stopped all work on
the project. He stated due to the wording used in the actual resolution, itself, we
would not be able to cut down the hill at Bluebonnet Drive and remove the stop
signs; the roundabout at Riverwalk Drive would be prohibited; the realignment at
Bedford Road could not happen; and that the Bransford Road roundabout would
not be allowed, according to the letter of the law. He stated there were some
conditional things and some conflicts within the resolution, such as “we may do”
something like the installation of roundabouts and turn lanes and such. He stated
that there are some conflicts within the resolution so that it reads that we may do
the rounadabouts and such, but at the end of the exercise, the cannot does end up
holding sway over what’s doable. He stated no matter what the proposition said
about maybe being able to add turn lanes or have roundabouts, the detailed
language does not allow them to be added. He stated he loves the country
atmosphere in Colleyville and stated trees are good. He stated accidents not only
occur at high speeds, they also occur at low speeds too. He stated safety is very
important to him as he has lost two brothers in separate accidents. He was
disappointed to hear that accidents were up 31 percent in 2014. He stated Glade
Road had more accidents than any other roadway in Colleyville, except for
Colleyville Boulevard. He stated the Glade Road accidents were substantially more
than what occurred on Cheek-Sparger Road (which is a two-lane road similar to
Glade Road), Hall-Johnson Road, Pool Road, and Jackson Road, or any other
roadway in Colleyville except for Colleyville Boulevard. He stated the 2014 Glade
City of Colleyville Page 3
City Council Minutes March 3, 2015
Road accidents are up almost double from what they were in 2009. He stated he
has studied a lot of the safety reports, and they say that half of the Glade Road
accidents are rear end collisions, and another 20 plus percent are involved in a
fixed object collision, like a tree or a pole, or a driveway crossing a ditch. He
stated sometimes it is even road rage. He stated we have a situation that is not
good when it comes to accidents and not good when it comes to the frustration
that people are feeling. He stated he thinks something needs to be done about it,
and as discussed before he calls for a roadway safety hazard review. He stated he
is convinced, having been a safety officer in several companies, that all accidents
are preventable. He stated he is also convinced it is especially important that,
while looking at Colleyville Boulevard’s revamping and potential changes to Glade
Road, we look now at the accidents that are affected by the road. He stated the
National Highway Transportation Safety Administrations states 40 percent of all
accidents, there is a road factor involved. He stated that looking at the Glade
Road data in detail that he comes to the same conclusion as well. He stated the
challenge for us is that we face an either-or decision in May. He stated if we vote
“yes” on the Glade Road proposition it freezes today’s road geometry in place
forever; we’ll be forever waiting at the Bluebonnet stop sign, and forever waiting
at the Riverwalk and Bedford Road intersections, trying to dodge the traffic. He
stated it will even be a problem at Bransford Road, where there are accidents at
the four-way stop. He stated, or we can choose the compromise plan from last
June and vote “no” on the proposition itself. He stated for the remainder of Glade
Road he believes a good compromise can be found in that it puts people first,
while preserving our country character. He stated he is going to be encouraging
Colleyville voters to get informed on Glade Road, to listen to the debate to
understand what is going on, and urging them to vote “no” in this upcoming
election.”
Councilmembers Short and Hart concurred with Councilmember Mogged.
Councilmember Mogged stated he would like to move forward with a safety
analysis. He then asked Councilmember Short if he could offer any options.
Councilmember Short stated he has checked with safety folks in his office, and
there is a person that is available to do a preliminary safety assessment of
roadways in Colleyville. He stated he hopes some of the concerns brought forward
by Councilmember Mogged will be addressed; however, it will take some time to
complete, given that person’s current workload. He stated an engineered roadway
will address concerns such as ditches. He stated he had hoped to accomplish this
with the Glade Road project, and he hopes the citizens of Colleyville will allow us
to do that.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated people are very passionate about fixing the road, and
they are becoming familiar with this project. He stated most people realize it is
important to stand up for good things in this community. He stated Glade Road is
a major collector roadway in Colleyville, not a residential road. He stated he was
City of Colleyville Page 4
City Council Minutes March 3, 2015
under the impression that if barrier curbs were used, the tightest footprint could
be achieved. He stated we all agreed that we could narrow sidewalks where it was
appropriate. He stated he understood most trees that might be removed are
within the right-of-way, and that adequate right-of-way currently exists to
improve the roadway. He stated that because the question was asked, people got
involved. He stated he too would have been concerned if 600 trees were being
clear-cut; however, this project would not have gone there. He stated there is a
very responsible way, and a wanted way, to fix this road. He stated he was not
going to waste taxpayers’ dollars with no improvement. He stated if the project is
completed all at once, we would go beyond 10 years on the debt. He stated we
could not cash flow enough, which would then put us within two bonds, and then
pay a higher interest and principal carry. He stated getting the facts to the public
correctly is important.
Councilmember Wollin stated a consultant was hired to give his recommendation
and it did not include City Council’s input in the beginning. She stated we are
going to put our Colleyville stamp on it and work together in deciding that and
maintaining our rural feel, with the consideration of safety and traffic flow. She
stated safety vehicles cannot currently get through if the roadway is blocked. She
stated if we work together, we can achieve the best solution for Colleyville.
Councilmember Hart stated he does not believe that will happen if this proposition
passes. Councilmember Wollin stated that is why it is important for people to
understand what it means.
Councilmember Hart stated all future City Councils would be required to go to
polling before anything is done, and what is polling. Mayor Kelly replied it would
be an election.
Councilmember Hart stated he has always envisioned Glade Road, as a two-lane
roadway with turn lanes, not a thoroughfare of size, but a thoroughfare that would
fit in the city and the neighborhood. He stated it was never going to be a four-
lane roadway. He stated it should be done right the first time, with sidewalks on
both sides, and the drainage improved. He stated his wife wants to be able to
walk down Glade Road to Lifetime Fitness, Market Street, or Whole Foods from his
home; however, it cannot be done today, and it cannot be done in the foreseeable
future if this passes.
Councilmember Mogged stated it is a concern of his that there is not a safe way
for children to get to the Bransford Elementary school, on the south side of Glade
Road from Manning Drive.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated the proposition language refers to drainage, and
when the roadway is properly designed, it will properly drain the yards. He stated
there is a lot of misinformation put out there about the project. He added he has
faith in the Colleyville voters.

Code regulations and ordinances that would have to be met in order to develop

right-of-way dedication and platting requirements, such as lot sizes. He added
any waiver requests would have to be approved by City Council.

zoned R20. Interim Director Marsh replied yes.
City of Colleyville Page 10
City Council Minutes March 3, 2015
Councilmember Short questioned staff if the properties to the west are currently
zoned R40. Interim Director Marsh replied yes, and added everything to the north
is zoned R20.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated it may be that four lots cannot be developed, given
the number of trees at the front of the property to allow for a 50 foot right-of-way
for the street. Mayor Kelly stated any conceptual drawing is not to be considered
this evening.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated he would like for the developers and homeowners to
meet and discuss options. He stated this is a tough lot to develop.
Councilmember Mogged stated there may be an opportunity to zone this property
as a PUD-R-Planned Unit Development Residential, which may allow for a better
configuration of the lots and roadway to preserve some of the heritage trees.
Councilmember Hart asked Mayor Kelly if the zoning is approved, will there be
another public hearing to discuss the plat. Mayor Kelly replied if the R20 is
approved, the applicant will be able to develop the property based on the R20
guidelines. He added if the applicant has any waiver requests to the plat, they will
have to come back for City Council approval.
Councilmember Hart asked staff if there would then be two more public hearings if
there are waiver requests. Executive Director of Development and Infrastructure
Chris Fuller stated four or fewer lots would not be brought forward for City Council
approval, unless there are waiver requests. He stated the Planning and Zoning
Commission would approve the minor plat, if there are no waiver requests.
This is the first reading of this item; therefore, City Council did not take any action
on this item during this meeting.
7. RESOLUTION(S): READING AND PUBLIC HEARING

There was no one present wishing to speak and Mayor Kelly closed the public
hearing at 8:42 p.m.
City of Colleyville Page 11
City Council Minutes March 3, 2015
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor asked staff if the applicant has invested $60,000, would the
City match up to $30,000. Director Wieder replied yes, and they can actually
exceed that $60,000; however, the largest matching grant to possibly receive is
$30,000.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor questioned staff regarding if stacking of grants is available.
Director Wieder replied there are no provisions for matching grants to be stacked.
Mayor Kelly stated with the new SH26 configuration, there will be some divided
medians in the north and south bound lanes, with limited turn access, so this will
allow vehicles to cross over from one commercial structure to another outside of

time to work out the Glade Road project.
