PC-1 Presentation and discussion of the Integrated Mosquito Management
Program
City Engineer Jeremy Hutt presented this item and briefed the City Council.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor questioned staff regarding the targeted application of the
adulticide. Engineer Hutt replied staff will apply a targeted approach to a testing
site in which three positive samples are gathered from that area. He stated an
attempt is made to control the mosquito population in that area. He added that
only a sample site that tests positive will be treated with pesticides.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated if there are no positive tests, then no pesticides will
be applied. Engineer Hutt replied correct.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated it seemed there were several trouble spots in which
samples tested positive. Engineer Hutt replied there was one main area, but there
were a couple of others that were hit and miss.
Councilmember Hart questioned staff regarding if the Health Department has
indicated why no one has come down with the virus, given the positive testing.
Engineer Hutt replied the Health Department has indicated that about 80 percent,
who are exposed, may or may not show symptoms of the virus.
City of Colleyville Page 1
City Council Minutes March 17, 2015
Councilmember Mogged stated because of the communication elements of the
mosquito issues, most people have responded by staying indoors or wearing long
sleeve clothing, or some other action. Engineer Hutt concurred, and stated staff
even made site visits with homeowners to show them what to look for, such as
flower pots that hold water.
Councilmember Mogged questioned staff if there is a way to control any collateral
damage that may occur because of treatments, such as with the keeping of bees.
Engineer Hutt replied this will be a localized application of the area, by utilizing
backpack treatments versus using truck mounted equipment. He stated a regional
application would be considered at the time of a positive test of the virus, such as
with a high risk or human case. He stated staff would then work with Tarrant
County Health or the Center for Disease Control in those instances.
Councilmember Short questioned staff regarding if sampling is intensified when
multiple positive tests are received in an area; to ensure that the localized
treatment is covering a sufficient size of the area. Engineer Hutt replied that
particular site will be monitored continually, not only for the virus, but the quantity
of mosquitos that are positively tested. He stated there may be some other
testing sites added in that area, and staff will be working with Tarrant County to
acquire more traps, if necessary.
Councilmember Short stated being concerned of treating the area in which the
traps are located, but the main breeding ground would be missed. Engineer Hutt
replied there were a lot of man hours used to locate the breeding sites. He stated
a lot of the creeks run along private properties; however, those property owners
are contacted to help educate them regarding this issue.
Councilmember Hart questioned staff regarding if needed, would they ask for
permission to get the sites, even if they were located on private properties.
Engineer Hutt replied yes, absolutely.
Councilmember Wollin questioned staff regarding the static sites. Engineer Hutt
replied they will maintain the three current static sites, and will move or adjust the
location of the rotating sites in order to get a better coverage of the City. He
stated staff will also work with some of the HOAs that allow us to treat their areas,
such as around creek areas.
Councilmember Mogged questioned staff regarding the chikungunya virus, how do
we control or track that virus. Engineer Hutt replied the Tarrant County Health
Department does the testing and the tracking of this virus. He stated we are
currently working with Tarrant County on a specific response plan for this virus;
however the details have not been finalized.
City of Colleyville Page 2
City Council Minutes March 17, 2015
Councilmember Mogged asked if staff is still trying to test the mosquitos for this
virus. Engineer Hutt replied the virus is being tested for; however, this virus does
not come from a local source. He stated Tarrant County is working on the
response to a treatment plan for those that may have traveled somewhere else
and contracted the virus. He added there is a specific type of trap for this
particular mosquito that carries this virus.
PC-2 Presentation and discussion of Colleyville roadway accidents
Police Chief Mike Holder presented this item at the request of Councilmember
Chuck Mogged. Councilmember Mogged stated this is an opportunity to see the
results of the last quarter of 2014 crash reports.
Councilmember Wollin questioned staff regarding if the traffic counts on Glade
Road, Cheek-Sparger Road, and Hall-Johnson Road are similar, which may account
for the different number of accidents. Public Works Director Bob Lowry replied the
traffic volumes on all three are relatively within 1,000 or so, and are not in order
of magnitude different. He stated Colleyville Boulevard is significantly different,
but only about twice as much as Glade Road.
Councilmember Putnam questioned staff regarding terms of causation. He noted
there was a steep increase in 2014 with DUI arrests; and asked if there is any
data that actually shows any sort of corresponding increase in accidents that
would partly attribute to a steep increase in 2014 over any other year. Chief
Holder replied that has not been looked at specifically. He stated he does not
generally believe there has been a significant increase in alcohol related accidents.
He added the enforcement has increased.
Councilmember Putnam asked staff if injury data is tracked. Chief Holder replied
yes; however, he did not have it in this presentation.
Councilmember Mogged stated this presentation provides the pure frequency of
accidents; however, it does not provide the severity of such.
Councilmember Mogged questioned staff regarding how we incorporate the crash
data into the road factor side of the design of the roadway, specifically these three
factors: 1) the vehicle design itself; 2) roadway influence itself; and 3) driver
behavior. Director Lowry replied the roadway will be designed to meet all of the
Federal Highway Administration and TxDOT standards, which are developed to
address these factors such as lane width, vertical and horizontal alignments, and
curbs and gutters. He stated there are so many driveway entrances that will
have an impact on driver awareness. He stated having the six lanes on SH26, will
hopefully address the fact that people turning will use the outside lanes. He added
narrow roadways tend to be a little safer, given the fact that people tend to slow
down more. He added staff will provide the crash data to the design consultant.
City of Colleyville Page 3
City Council Minutes March 17, 2015
Councilmember Mogged stated there may be something outside of those standards
that may help, given the data we have here. He provided an example of the
lowering of a street sign which may have helped to eliminate wrong way drivers.
Director Lowry replied staff will provide this information to the design consultant.
Councilmember Short stated there are special exceptions to the seven foot rule of
the ramp signs.
Councilmember Putnam asked staff if any other municipalities have added any
texting bans. Chief Holder replied Arlington and Grand Prairie, but he was not
sure about the surrounding cities. He stated the State stepped in with a bill
relative to driving and texting, and a lot of cities have taken a “wait and see”
approach to see if the state will take a stand on the issue.
Councilmember Short asked staff if the flashing yellow arrows on SH26 have been
the cause of any accidents. Chief Holder replied he does not know of any
substantiating factors in which this has been an issue. He stated there was an
adjustment period; however, the feedback now has been positive.
Mayor Pro Tem stated being surprised that there was no more than one accident
reported, given the ongoing construction at the intersection of SH26 and John
McCain. City Manager Jennifer Fadden stated at least for accidents which occurred
in the actual intersection itself.
Councilmember Short stated the same holds true for the Oak Point intersection,
given the concern for this intersection.
Councilmember Mogged stated there is no data on the near misses, or the
accidents that are not reported through 9-1-1. Chief Holder concurred.
Councilmember Mogged stated 2010 and 2011 were the peak years in which a
learning curve was experienced during our first constructed roundabout. He
stated the good news is that people have adjusted to the roundabouts and how to
deal with them.
Councilmember Mogged stated it was interesting to note that on Martin Parkway,
the increase in the number of cars is more from the vehicles coming from the
south side of Woodland Hills. Chief Holder stated the rise in the roadway, and the
cars coming out are not good combinations.
Councilmember Hart asked staff if the Colleyville police respond to all issues on
Cheek-Sparger Road or does the City of Bedford. Chief Holder replied we are the
responding agency on Cheek-Sparger Road. He stated Bedford may assist us at
times.
City of Colleyville Page 4
City Council Minutes March 17, 2015
Councilmember Short asked staff if the lack of a left turn lane at Martin Parkway
has an impact on those accidents. Chief Holder replied yes.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated Martin Parkway has the higher number of accidents
as drivers are approaching up to Cheek-Sparger. Chief Holder replied staff has
seen this in both directions.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor asked staff if drivers are just not paying attention. Chief
Holder replied most are those trying to turn out onto Cheek-Sparger Road.
Councilmember Mogged stated there are seven periods of seven plus weeks of no
accidents in certain locations. He stated he would like to see this trend continue,
even if it is a challenge.
PC-3 Discussion of the March 17, 2015, City Council regular agenda items

City of Colleyville Page 9
City Council Minutes March 17, 2015
Englert, 6114 Waller Lane, Colleyville; Karin Fisher, 5710 Ponderosa Court,
Colleyville; and Jay McMeans, 6013 Cooks Lane, Colleyville.
The following persons did not wish to speak, but did wish to register their support
of this request: Lori Stacy, 6104 Hunter Lane, Colleyville; Ramasurya Reddy, 5106
Heritage Oaks Drive, Colleyville; Sweta Reddy, 4603 Shadywood Lane, Colleyville;
Sudhakar Srirangapalli, 3525 Veronica Drive, Flower Mound; and Jerry Moore,
6101 Hunter Lane, Colleyville.
There were no others present wishing to speak and Mayor Kelly closed the public
hearing at 7:58 p.m.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor questioned Ms. Polakala regarding if they have a contract on
the property. Ms. Polakala replied they currently have a contingency contract in
place, but it would not move forward without the approval of the zoning request.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated he would not move forward with this request if the
current property owner has not approved of the zoning change. Interim Director
Marsh stated the application on file has the current property owner’s signature
authorizing the zoning change.
Mayor Kelly questioned staff regarding the Master Plan’s level for residential
density. Interim Director Marsh replied the Master Plan states 1.8 dwelling units
per acre, and this request is consistent with the Master Plan.
Mayor Kelly asked staff if only the zoning is being considered for the proper land
use, not the development of the property itself. Interim Director Marsh replied
correct.
Jay McMeans, 6013 Cooks Lane, asked City Council if there will be another public
hearing on this request. Mayor Kelly replied there will not be another public
hearing if the developer can meet the R-20 zoning district requirements. He
added if there are any waiver requests, then the applicant will have to bring
forward the request for a public hearing.
Councilmember Wollin stated being conflicted with a straight zoning request. She
stated with a PUD request City Council could require certain development
requirements, otherwise, unless there are waiver requests, this item will not be
seen again. Mayor Kelly stated the consideration of a PUD was discussed with the
applicant; however, they chose to go with the R-20 zoning district. Interim
Director Marsh stated the R-20 zoning district seemed to work with this particular
property.
Councilmember Short stated a plat will have to go through a review process, but
does it just go through the Planning and Zoning Commission. Interim Director
Marsh stated without any waivers, it will stop with the Planning and Zoning
City of Colleyville Page 10
City Council Minutes March 17, 2015
Commission. City Manager Jennifer Fadden stated as long as the plat meets all of
the requirements of the Land Development Code it is an administrative action by
the Planning and Zoning Commission.
Mayor Kelly stated this request is to consider the land use only, especially since
they will have to meet all of the zoning district requirements.
Mayor Kelly moved to approve Ordinance O-15-1950. Councilmember
Hart seconded the motion.
Councilmember Short questioned staff if the neighbor to the west of the subject
property withdrew her opposition. Interim Director Marsh replied yes, staff was
told Ms. Naler and the applicant had come to some agreements.
The motion to approve carried by the following vote:
Aye: 7 – Mayor David Kelly, Mayor Pro Tem Mike Taylor, and
Councilmembers Carol Wollin, Chuck Mogged, Chris Putnam, Jody Short,
and Tom Hart
Mayor Kelly suggested the neighbors and the applicant get together and visit
about any issues.

6b Resolution R-15-3859
Approval and adoption of the 2014 Water and Wastewater Master Plan
Mayor Kelly read Resolution R-15-3859 in its entirety.
City Engineer Jeremy Hutt presented this item and briefed the City Council.
Mayor Kelly asked staff how implementing the projects in the proposed plan will
benefit our residents. Engineer Hutt replied some of the projects for additional
capacity could address peak flow demands. He stated some projects were based
on condition because there are some old water lines that need to be replaced and
that are susceptible to failure. He stated replacing those lines will create a much
better delivery of the water to prevent unplanned interruptions of that water
system.
Councilmember Mogged asked staff if one of the benefits of this plan is that it is
less expensive to do projects on a planned basis, rather than on a “fix-it” basis.
Engineer Hutt replied all water lines have a useful life, and by taking the approach
of replacing the lines prior to failure, staff will have a structure to plan accordingly
for the infrastructure so that less inconveniences occur for the customer.
Mayor Pro Tem Taylor stated he appreciates this plan, and thanked staff for
bringing this forward.
Mayor Kelly opened the public hearing at 8:20 p.m.
There was no one present wishing to speak and Mayor Kelly closed the public
hearing at 8:20 p.m.

minded. She stated the Master Plan should have ½ acre minimum lot sizes. She
stated the City needs to return to their grass roots when it was much kinder and
simpler. She expressed her appreciation for the cleaning of the fountain on Glade
Road and Bluebonnet Drive. She stated she would rather the train to be able to
blow their horn so that people know the train is coming.
Louis Miller, 7802 Tillman Hill Court, spoke regarding the Glade Road project, and
the resolution being proposed on the ballot. He stated the roadway is a two-lane
roadway, and was never intended to be a four-lane roadway. He stated if this
resolution on the ballot is passed, then the opportunity to provide curb and gutter,
proper width for safety, turn lanes, and roundabouts to provide better traffic flow
through Colleyville would be lost. He stated he hopes Resolution 1 will be
defeated. He stated it is time to do what is right for Colleyville. He added he
believes the citizens of Colleyville want Glade Road to be improved.
Joe Moore, 133 Acuff Lane, stated Colleyville has done a good job to involve its
citizens. He stated he is an advocate of the trail system, having had worked with
the Texas Trails network. He stated trails provide an alternate form of
transportation, and he would hate to see those trails be taken away. He stated
not being in favor of limiting City Council’s ability to improve the roadway. He
stated as being a forester, trees give livelihood to people and can be replanted,
and they are the only renewable resource. He stated relative to traffic, the City
Council has a challenge or a charge, if you will, to create a safe environment for
citizens. He stated Glade Road needs to be widen and improved. He added he fully
supports City Council and their decision to move forward with that plan. He stated
he will be voting no for the proposition in May, and will be encouraging the citizens
to do so as well. He stated the train is going to come, and we need to be as
prudent as possible relative to safety.
Bobby Lindamood, 4913 Jim Mitchell Trial West, stated the train does not stop
here in Colleyville. He stated over 1,000 people signed the petition, throughout
this City, to say they do not like this idea. He stated they want the road to be built
correctly, without the trail. He stated he is for the citizens to be represented and
be safe. He stated traffic counts on Glade Road will go down with all of the open
roadways such as SH121, 183, and with the roundabout at Cheek-Sparger and
Jackson Road. He stated he does agree that in some places the road does need to
be widened; however, there are some places that it does not. He stated the
sidewalk on the north side could be completed. He stated the candidate packet
includes information about Glade Road, in that it will take eight years to complete
and cost $18.4 million. He stated full depth reclamation on Glade Road could be
done and then overlaid with a thick layer of asphalt, at half the time and a third of
the cost. He stated there are other substandard streets in Colleyville that need to
be fixed. He stated the infrastructure needs to be fixed as well. He stated the
item has been placed on the ballot due to grass roots efforts.
