Tuesday, July 19, 2016 City Council Chambers
Mayor Richard Newton called the Pre Council meeting of the Colleyville City Council
to order on Tuesday, July 19, 2016, at 5:30 p.m.
ROLL CALL: Mayor Richard Newton, Mayor Pro Tem Chris Putnam, and
Councilmembers Tammy Nakamura, Bobby Lindamood, Jody Short, Nancy Coplen
and Mike Taylor

PC-1 Discussion of Community Garden Survey
Parks Manager Heather Dowell presented this item and briefed the City Council.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked staff if they have any personal experience with
community gardens. Manager Dowell replied yes, she was in involved in the
community garden on UTA property in Arlington; however, the city managed and
maintained it along with the gardeners and the Garden Board. She stated there
were a lot of challenges and some conflicts, and she organized all garden work
days since no one would step up to the leadership role.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked staff how the water is managed with a garden on
City owned property, but not managed by the City. Manager Dowell replied the
gardeners are in charge of it, but it essentially falls back on the City to make sure
water is not being wasted.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff who the survey was sent to. City Manager
Jennifer Fadden replied it was promoted through all City communication tools.
Manager Dowell added she had contacted the garden groups who had an interest.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff about the Garden Club and if they have
interest in running this. Manager Dowell replied the Garden Club has not informed
City Council Minutes July 19, 2016
City of Colleyville Page 2
her of that. Councilmember Coplen added nobody wants to be in charge of it, that
she is aware of.
Councilmember Coplen stated she spoke to the persons who run the community
gardens for GRACE and 6 Stones (both non-profit agencies), and they do well
because they are planting to give away the crops. She added there has been one
lady who has been doing the one for GRACE for over 10 years. She stated at the
garden for 6 Stones, which is on 6 Stones property, gardeners pay for their plot.
Councilmember Lindamood stated he is very familiar with community gardens, and
the ones he has seen have been very well organized. He stated being pro gardens
and seeing families working in the garden is nice. He stated there will always be
challenges with group efforts. Mayor Newton agreed, and stated McPherson Park
seems to be a logical location for this. He stated the garden should be run by a
group, and if they stop maintaining it, then it will go away.
Councilmember Coplen suggested the garden be planted on Compass Church land,
and a percentage of the crops could go to GRACE, since there is a pick-up station
across the street. Councilmember Lindamood stated he believes that is why 6
Stones is so good since they know they are helping to feed the community.
Councilmember Short stated taking on another program, especially when
contemplating revenue reductions is a concern.
Councilmember Nakamura asked Mayor Newton if we are contemplating any funds
for this. Mayor Newton replied with being on City property, the only thing would be
water. He stated there are ways to accomplish this, maybe with volunteer funds,
with a little City oversight. He added he does not believe it will be successful
without that.
Councilmember Taylor stated he does not believe this is a government function,
and he would defer to the Garden Club’s wisdom and they do not want to run this.
He added City staff would be the one to have to take this over.
Mayor Newton asked staff about the project at the Webb House. Manager Dowell
replied the Garden Club had installed some drip irrigation for the landscaping at
the Webb House. She stated the irrigation system did not function properly. She
added the Garden Club has provided more money for staff to fix and maintain that
system.
Councilmember Taylor asked staff about the flower bed at Kidsville. Manager
Dowell replied it is a small bed, and the City maintains it.
Mayor Newton asked staff if the Garden Club provides money for the City to
maintain the Webb House landscaping, or do they just donate money, and then
they would maintain it. Manager Dowell replied the last agreement was to provide
City Council Minutes July 19, 2016
City of Colleyville Page 3
funds for the City to update the landscaping. Councilmember Coplen added
maintenance was previously included.
Councilmember Lindamood stated if this is pursued, and all monies are donated, it
may be worth a chance. He added if it does not work out, then the City can
remove it.
Mayor Newton asked City Council if they would like to move forward, and involve
citizens, not staff, who want to move ahead with the project. Councilmember
Lindamood suggested taking baby steps and if there is not a response, then the
project can be wiped off the table. Mayor Pro Tem Putnam stated it is a legitimate
community effort, not a staff initiative, and if there is a group that can bring
forward a plan, inclusive of remedies to mitigate issues, then there is no harm in
entertaining the idea. He added he preferred the Garden Club to participate.
Councilmember Nakamura stated Manager Dowell would be a great person to work
with whichever group, but not to run it ourselves.
PC-2 Presentation and discussion of fees and charges
Strategic Services Manager Adrienne Lothery presented this item and briefed the
City Council. Colleyville Center Manager Leslie Hill and Colleyville Center Advisory
Committee Chair Mark Johnson were also present.
Mayor Newton asked staff about the timeframe for the rates. Manager Hill replied
it is for a four-hour block.
Councilmember Lindamood asked staff if this includes all non-profits, or just
Colleyville based non-profits. Manager Lothery replied Colleyville based non-
profits.
Councilmember Short asked staff about the concern for the Friday morning group.
Mr. Johnson replied that issue has eroded away over the years, and there were no
“no” votes from the Colleyville Lions Club just an abstention.
Councilmember Short asked staff if there are other types of groups who utilize the
Center every week, and would have the same financial impact. Manager Hill
replied the Colleyville Womans’ Club meets four or five times a month, and the
Garden Club meets once a month. She added staff has to open up the Center
extremely early on Friday, weekly, and staff allows an extension on the four-hour
block, with the Lions Club being there five and six hours.
Councilmember Short asked if there is any differentiation between non-profit and
service oriented groups. Manager Lothery replied not from a rate perspective.
Manager Hill replied the non-profit organizations are utilizing the Center 60
percent of the time, Monday through Friday, with only 16 percent of the generated
revenue. She stated there has not been an increase in this rate in 20 years, and
City Council Minutes July 19, 2016
City of Colleyville Page 4
she has already renegotiated the contracts; therefore, these rates will not affect
those contracts, until next year.
Mayor Newton asked staff if these are the annual contracts. Manager Hill replied
yes.
Councilmember Lindamood asked staff if in 2017 they will pay $90 or $75.
Manager Lothery replied $75.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked staff if there is a way to grandfather the existing
contracts into the step increase, and then use the new rates for new customers.
Manager Hill replied there are only a few non-profits in the City.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff if they have discussed it with everyone.
Manager Hill replied yes.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked staff if revenue recovery has been slipping.
Managers Hill and Lothery replied yes
Councilmember Short asked staff if one or more find other places to meet, will
that be a positive or negative impact on the Center. Manager Hill replied it would
affect about 16-25 percent of the Center’s revenue; however, it could be replaced
with customers paying the higher rates.
Mayor Newton asked staff if other fees have changed over the 20 years. Manager
Hill replied rates have been increased for non-standard rates and non-citizens.
Mayor Newton asked staff if these rates include audio and visual use. Manager Hill
replied yes, those are not increasing.
Councilmember Lindamood asked staff how much of the revenue will this small
increase help with catch up. Manager Hill replied it could honestly be a wash, from
an operational stand point.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff if customers are charged for using their own
thumb drive for open records requests. City Secretary Amy Shelley replied no.
Councilmember Taylor asked staff if there would be a security issue with using
someone else’s thumb drive. City Secretary Amy Shelley replied there could be,
but we have not had this occur.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff if there would be a charge for using a new,
right out of the box, thumb drive. City Secretary Amy Shelley replied there would
not be a charge.
City Council Minutes July 19, 2016
City of Colleyville Page 5
Mayor Newton asked staff where the fees are located that the City charges for
development. Manager Lothery replied these fees are located in the Local
Government Code, Municode, on the City’s website, Section 2-26 includes fees and
administrative charges for City services where the vast majority of those are
located. She added each time a fee is updated, staff tries to include it in this
section.
PC-3 Discussion of any proposed TML resolutions
Mayor Newton led the discussion regarding this item. He stated there have been
two items come up: (1) the Judge has made a request for the state to separate
how the data is collected for paraphernalia because it currently goes into the
alcohol category.
Councilmember Short asked Mayor Newton if this is a statewide record keeping
issue. Mayor Newton replied yes, the information gets buried because it goes into
the incorrect category.
Councilmember Short asked Mayor Newton if the records are also maintained
locally. Mayor Newton replied yes, the Judge does for her court.
Mayor Newton asked staff if this item is in alignment for TML to push this up.
Assistant City Manager/Director of Public Safety Mike Holder replied it could be
more of a procedural issue with the Department of Public Safety. He stated the
way the state says we have to report it, is not the way the law is written as it does
not capture fine only offenses. He added it is not a law that needs to be written or
changed.
Mayor Newton asked staff about how this is done. Assistant City Manager/Director
of Public Safety Mike Holder replied the way he has seen it done with other
committees is that rather than recommending wording for law or law change, it is
more set up as a point of action to be addressed. Mayor Newton replied he is good
with whatever is the appropriate way to get at what we are trying to change.
Mayor Newton stated the other item that has been brought to his attention is with
the Texas Municipal Retirement System and how COLA is done. He stated
currently if the City wants to add COLA to the retirement system, TMRS makes this
retroactive, which is cost prohibitive, but if they change that process, maybe we
could make a COLA change, but right now we cannot.
Councilmember Nakamura asked Mayor Newton if he is proposing not to make it
retroactive. Mayor Newton relied yes, but currently TMRS does not have a process
for this. City Manager Jennifer Fadden added it is part of the TMRS Act.
Councilmember Taylor stated he would like for some relief with the cost of health
coverage, such as to put together coops for health insurance. He stated there are
City Council Minutes July 19, 2016
City of Colleyville Page 6
a lot of cities with common interests and common payrolls, and it could be done
statewide. He suggested something like what Colleyville has done with the
combination of Colleyville and Keller Court, Animal services, and Teen Court.
Mayor Newton replied being supportive of that.
Mayor Newton stated he wants to also push these to the state representatives.
Councilmember Coplen asked staff about who will write these requests. City
Manager Jennifer Fadden replied staff will write these requests for City Council’s
consideration on the next City Council agenda.

Development Commercial District on Lots 1R, 2, and 3, Block 1 of the
Village Park Addition, located at 1001, 1005, and 1009 Glade Road,
Case ZC16-009
Mayor Newton read the caption of Ordinance O-16-1982.
Deputy City Manager Chris Fuller presented this item and updated the City
Council.
Mayor Newton asked staff if the re-zoning of this commercial area is to allow for
additional uses, and is consistent with what surrounds it. Deputy City Manager
Chris Fuller replied yes.
Mayor Newton asked staff about the parking for the current and newly proposed
uses. Deputy City Manager Chris Fuller replied there are currently 68 parking
spaces with 64 being utilized. He stated if the most restrictive uses in the CN or
CPO zoning district were to be utilized on this site, 83 parking spaces would be
required.
Mayor Newton asked staff how the City would handle that if that were to occur.
Deputy City Manager Chris Fuller replied if that were to occur, staff can only
permit or issue certificates of occupancy that would accommodate those parking
spaces.
Terry Lyons, 1907 Renfro, property owner and applicant, presented the item and
briefed the City Council. He stated they are currently utilizing about 38 parking
City Council Minutes July 19, 2016
City of Colleyville Page 10
spaces each day. He added they want health and beauty spa uses, and they do not
envision using all of the existing parking spaces.
Mayor Newton asked Mr. Lyons if he understands that a Mr. Jims Pizza, or
anything like it, would not be allowed again, if it goes away. Mr. Lyons replied he
did not know that since it is considered retail space, not really office type space.
Deputy City Manager Chris Fuller added the ordinance states “upon termination or
abandonment of the existing restaurant use, future uses shall thereafter conform
to the regulations applicable to the governing zoning ordinance.” City Manager
Jennifer Fadden stated they could renew their lease.
Mayor Newton asked staff if Mr. Jims does not renew their lease, then another
similar place, such as “Soup or Salad” could not come in its place. Deputy City
Manager Chris Fuller replied correct, another like-minded business would not be
able to come in.
Mayor Newton asked staff if this rezoning does not affect the businesses currently
there. Deputy City Manager Chris Fuller replied correct.
Councilmember Taylor asked staff if the nine uses, listed in the briefing, are
allowed to go into this location. Deputy City Manager Chris Fuller replied this
rezoning would allow those new uses in addition to the existing uses.
Councilmember Taylor asked staff where a yoga studio would fit. Deputy City
Manager Chris Fuller replied a yoga studio would be considered a fitness gym.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam stated on a positive side, he could build a golf course.
Mayor Newton opened the public hearing at 8:18 p.m.
There was no one present wishing to speak and Mayor Newton closed the public
hearing at 8:18 p.m.

City of Colleyville Page 11
Mayor Newton read the caption of Ordinance O-16-1983.
Chief Financial Officer Brian Hogan presented this item and briefed the City
Council. Jorge Delgado, First Southwest, was also present to answer any
questions.
Councilmember Taylor asked Mr. Delgado to explain what it means that we do not
extend duration, but we are reissuing bonds. Mr. Delgado replied basically when
you do not extend the duration of the bond, you simply replace your existing debt
with new debt at a lower rate. He then compared this to refinancing a mortgage.
He stated the average coupon that you are paying on the old debt is 3.96 percent,
but the average coupon on the new debt was replaced at 2.4 percent.
Mayor Newton opened the public hearing at 8:25 p.m.
There was no one present wishing to speak and Mayor Newton closed the public
hearing at 8:25 p.m.

6a Ordinance O-16-1984
Consideration of amending Ordinance O-14-1936, adopting the 2015
edition of the International Energy Conservation Code; amending all
conflicting portions of Section 18 of the Colleyville Code of Ordinances
and amending Chapter 11 of the 2012 International Residential Code
Mayor Newton read the caption of Ordinance O-16-1984.
Building Official Eddie Wilson presented this item and updated the City Council.
Councilmember Taylor asked staff if the standards are the same for residential and
commercial. Official Wilson replied not for duct leakage testing, but there are
certain sections that are not that different. He added it depends on the builder.
Mayor Newton asked staff if thermal and duct leakage are the major components
of this amendment. Official Wilson replied those are the major changes, and it is
City Council Minutes July 19, 2016
City of Colleyville Page 12
now mandatory testing whereas before it was not. He added there are now air
leakage requirements.
Mayor Newton asked staff if the builders have to meet this code because the City
adopts the amendments, but it does not say how the builders will meet these
requirements. Official Wilson replied correct, the builders will meet this regardless.
Mayor Newton asked staff if these requirements are added costs to building
houses. Official Wilson replied correct.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked staff if this will create additional annual inspections
for homeowners. Official Wilson replied no, this is a one-time inspection, and done
with new construction, and inspected by a third party.
Mayor Newton asked staff if this inspection will apply to existing or remodel
efforts. Official Wilson replied the inspection will only apply to remodels where the
structure is taken down to bare studs, and all mechanical and electrical systems
are replaced.
Councilmember Lindamood asked staff if their equipment is able to test these new
regulations. Official Wilson replied the inspections will be completed through a
third party rated to rate the leakage.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked staff what is being prescribed or amended in section
11.09.2.1 relative to unisex toilets and bathing rooms. Official Wilson replied not
being familiar with that provision. City Manager Jennifer Fadden replied Ordinance
O-05-1509 was repealed and replaced with the 2012 Energy Code adopted in
2014.
Councilmember Taylor asked staff what are the options whether or not we adopt
this amendment. City Attorney Matthew Boyle replied if City Council choses not to
adopt the amendment, you would simply fall out of compliance with state law.
Official Wilson added the builders would follow the correct code in case there was
