A MESSAGE FROM MAYOR RICHARD NEWTON
Like the rest of the Dallas/Fort Worth area and the nation,
we are shocked and saddened by the events in Dallas last
night. As the city of Dallas and the Dallas police seek
answers about these crimes and those who committed
them, we turn our thoughts to those who were lost and to
their families. Our prayers are with them and with those
officers and police personnel who, in the midst of such
tragedy, continue to protect us, in Dallas, across the
nation, and here in our own community.
I'm proud of our police officers and all police officers,
wherever they may serve. I hope that everyone in the
Colleyville community and in extended communities will
come together in support of our police officers and all those
that put their lives on the line to ensure our citizens' safety
every day.
There will be a Community Prayer Vigil to honor and
support law enforcement this evening, Friday, July 8,
at 6:00 p.m. at the Colleyville Justice Center, 5201
Riverwalk Drive.
Parking will be available next door at the Colleyville Center
and in the parking lot behind the Justice Center. The vigil
will take place in front of the Justice Center so please do
not park in front of the building.

SENIOR TRIP TO SEE THE
SOUND OF MUSIC
TWO MOSQUITO TRAPS TEST POSITIVE FOR
WEST NILE VIRUS
On Wednesday, July 6, Tarrant County notified the city that
two of the mosquito samples submitted last week have
tested positive for West Nile Virus (WNV). The samples
were taken from the 1600 block of Hall Johnson Road and
the 2500 block of Glade Road. This is the first positive test
for each of these sample sites, and the second and third
positive WNV samples in Colleyville this year.
City staff treated the sites with larvicide, and the sites are
scheduled for continued testing. Residents within a quarter-
mile area of the sample sites were notified through the
city's CodeRED system.
