AGENDA ~
At the 2-15-90 Park Board meeting, the Board discussed
the possible land donation to~the City from the Ross ,,
Downs development. Enclosed is the ordinance for open
space requirements in residential planned unit development.
Some concerns expressed at the last meeting were:
-The land donation did not meet required ordinance which
requires not less that twenty percent of the project area
be donated as common open. The proposal from Ross Downs
is 9.40.
-I asked Schrickel, Rollins and Associates to present a
breakdown of costs that would be necessary in the evaluation
of the proposed park site

TO: David Fain, Parks and Recreation Coordinator
FROM: David Draz, Assistant City Manage
SUBJ: Possible Park Land Donation
At the February 12, 1990 Planning and Zoning Commission meet-
ing the Commission recommended approval of a zoning change
request from AG, ML, and R-20 to PUD-R for a large tract of
land commonly known as Ross Downs. The proposed development
includes 7.83 acres of open space. The engineer for the
developer indicated that they would like to know if the City
was interested in receiving the land as park land. As part
of their recommendation, the Planning and Zoning Commission
requested that notification be sent to the Park Board regard-
ing the 7.83 acre open space that could be considered for
City park land.
Please find attached two (2) copies of the zoning exhibit for
the proposed development. Based on the current schedule, the
City Council will hear 1st, 2nd and 3rd readings on this zon-
ing case at their February 27th, March 6th and March 20th
meetings.
We will continue to make you aware of any open space that is
being proposed as possible park land so that the Park Board
can be involved in the evaluation and recommendation process.
Please let me know if you need further information.

REs Mill Creek Sits Plan/Park Grant Potential
Dear Mr. MaDaniei:
This report is in response to your letter dated March a1, 1990.
Your letter authorized and requested a pr0liminary review of the
potential probability and/or problems which may be •xpscted
should the City pursue a grant from the Texas Parks and Wildlils
Department !or this location. li-dditionally, it is understood
that I am not requested to provide a detail0d analysis which
identities minor issues. The lollowinq comments are based on the
"Revised Sits Plan" attached to your latter and on comments
received from the owner's engineer, Mr. Washington, at a meeting
at City Hall on March 26, 1990.
ABBIIMPTIONB AND INF0ItMATIODi PROVIDED

Washington & P-.ssooiates.
2. Proposed park property as shown within light green
boundary.
3. Fioodplain and lloodway as shown with trie red and blue
1S.nes, respectively.
4. Fill material will be located betwQari the tloodway and

Washington, includes:
a. There will ba no channelization of the creek and
its tributaries.
b. There will be a retaining wall constructed at the
rear o! lots 13, 14, and ls, Block L.
c. Cut material to ba used to rill the red shaded
area betwiz~n the tloodway and tloodplain on both
aides of the creek will come from borrow areas to
bscoms "ponds" located within the proposed park.
d. The location o! the "ponds" will not remove any
trees which ar• dubatantial.
e. Gensral or line grading may ba required in tho
tributary between Glade Road and Mill Lake Drives.
!. side slopes orsated by till material will not
exceed a slops gradient of 20~ (~htly) and will
not extend into the tloodway.
G~RAL OB8EA9ATIO~T
The comments contain4d in this report depend grsatiy on "intent"
o! design instead of ongineering plans. At this time detailed
plans showing earthwork modifications intended within the park
ar• not aompleto.

~. The value o! property in Block L located at the roar of
lots 7, 12 through 16, and 20 through 26 may be
excluded from property which could be used as local
matching funds by the Texas parks & Wildlife
Department. The basis for this observation is that the
property does not have easy access and visibility is
severely limited. It should b• noted that the
indication is "may ba excluded". This will b~ a
subjective call on th• part of the TP&WD staff. Those
two potential problems could be mitigated by the
extension of two cul-ds-sacs north to provide public
access and view into the park.

Z. Ths Close proximity o! the CreQk bed to lots l3, 14,
and 1S of Block L will require detailed design in order
to avoid an adverse impact on the proposed park. This
is where the engineer is suggesting a retaining wall.
3. The transport of storm water from the adjacent
subdivision to the creek bed will require manmade
features versus natural drainage across park property
because o= erosion. underground storm sewer is
generally prsPerable to surface flumss.~
4. The presence o! water features or ponds in the park
could be an aslast. Howevez, the ponds should be
located so as not to destroy trees, be visible from
public streets, and have side ciopes which will perait
maintenance. Consideration should be given to the fact
that the proposed ponds will require maintenance and
safety enloreement. Examples o! these include,
siltation o! ponds, plant material growth around the
banks o! the ponds, probable necessity for water
sources to augment pond water and maintain pool levels,
and visual and physical access by safety personnel.
5. Land areas within the park that are outside o! the
tloodway are limited. The only areas o= significant
size are the rectangular space north o! Mill Valley
Drive and the irregular area at the east end of the
subdivision north of Mill Valley Drive. There are no
signilieant areas on the north aids o! the subdivision.
This is important because tacilitiea such as
playgrounds, shelters or restrooms cannot be located
inside the tloodway.
6. In general, FEMA regulations allow parking areas and
trails to be constructed inside the tloodway provided
they are set "at grade" without being elevated vn till.
In planning the park, a question will be whether to
locate parking within the park or to keep it on the
adjacent stresta.

R~COM~iSNDAT~ ON
The development of the proposed park property as shown on the
"ReviBCed Sits Plan" should be a very competitive application and
would probably receive approval by the Texas Parks t~ Wildlife
Department. This "opinion" is based on the following conditions
and assumption.
1. Donation of the property to the City for a public park.
Z. park improvsmenta proposed for the propsrt would
include multipurpose trails, picnic ~aa~litiee,
playground equipment, and classification/designation as
a nature-area. A nature area designation will require
that the environmental oharaeteristice including tress,
creek, and animal/bird habitat remain somewhat intact.
Additionally, the development of nature study stations
would be desirable. These stations would deal with the
identification of trees, shrubs, grasses,
animals/birds, rocks/minerals, and other miscellaneous
topics such as environmental history, age of trees,
eta.
3. Pedestrian and visual access to the park site is not
reduced from that shown on tha "Revised Site Plan."
4. The preparation of a functional development plan
showing the location of the proposed recreational
elements whiehs (1) incorporate manmade recreational
elements into natural settings of the park property
and; (2) protects the desirability of the adjacent
residential land uses.
PROJECT PRIORITY eCORING ANALYSIS
Th• proposed project should score in the mid 9o's to loo plus,
using the 1990 TORP (Texas outdoor Recreation Pian) criteria.
The elimination of any o! the proposed recreational improvements
would likely re$uit in a nonlundabis point score.
This report makes reference to the attached map. Additionally,
you may make reference to previously submitted correspondence.

CITY OF HURBT
COHMIINITY SERVICES
NATIVE TREE PRESERVATION
GUIDELINES FOR PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT
INTRODUCTION:
The City of Hurst enjoys a large population of beautiful
native trees such as Post Oaks, Live Oaks, Red Oaks, Black
Jack Oaks and Mesquite among several other species. Many of
the City's native trees are growing in established residen-
tial and commercial landscapes, but there are .also large
numbers of them located in undeveloped areas. These trees
are a very valuable natural resource in the City of Hurst
because they provide the following qualities:
* Aesthetic Beauty
* Financial Value
* Soil Stabilization
* Sound Absorption
* Energy Conservation (shade)
* Windbreak
* Wildlife Habitat
* Oxygen Production
It is in the interest of the City of Hurst that the site plan
review process, and development regulation, include guide-
lines and methods for protecting and preserving native trees.
The following guidelines have been promulgated to insure that
the native tree population in the City of Hurst is protected
to the largest extent possible when development is occurring.
During the plan review process, the City will work wit: the
developer in identifying the steps that will be necessary to
maximize the preservation of native trees. During construc-
tion, the City should monitor the progress of efforts to
maintain the trees that have been identified for preservat-
ion.
Information used in preparing this guide was obtained from
the Texas Agricultural Extension Service, the United States
Department of Agriculture, and Dr. Ricks H. Pluenneke.
These guidelines are designed and written to correspond. to
the three separate development phases:
1. Pre-Construction Site P1•anninq
2. Construction •
3. Post-Construction.
PHASE 1
PRE-CONSTRIICTION BITE PLANNINt3 PHASE
Tree survey:
Prior to construction, during the site planning phase, a Tree
Survey willd be completed by the developer. The survey
should include the following information about each tree on
the site:
1. Location
2. Type / Species
3. Caliper
4. Approximate Height
Acceptable Native Trees:
The following list of trees are considered acceptable for
preservation by area consultants and the Parks Department in
the City of Hurst. These trees should receive careful scru-
tiny during the plan review process. Factors that need to be
considered for each tree include: size, age, vigor, and den-
sity.
~- ~ * Post Oak (Quercus stellata)
* Red Oak (Quercus shumardi)
* Black Jack Oak (Quercus marilandica)
* Eastern Red Cedar (Juniperus virginiana)
* Pecan (Carya illinoiensis)
* Cedar Flm (Ulmus crassifolia)
* Live Oak (Quercus virginiana)
Less Acceptable Native Trees:
The following list of trees are considered less acceptable
for preservation in the City of Hurst. These trees can be
marked for removal.
* Hackberry (Celtis occidentalis)
* Cottonwood (Populus deltoides)
* Bois d~arc (Maclura pomifera)
* Willow (Salix sp.)
-2-
Guidelines for Pre-Constructions
The following factors have a significant influence on the
preservation of acceptable native trees.
Overall Condition
The overall condition of the tree, large or small, young
or old should be considered. If a tree shows signs of
storm or lightning damage, or has cavities or signs of
disease, preservation efforts may not be justified.
Tree Aqe
Large, old trees do not adapt well to environmental
changes as well as young trees. Unfortunately, the Post
Oak is a prime example of a species where construction
has a devastating impact on their survival rates. For
large old trees to survive, extra measures must be taken
to maximize protection of the root zone.
Tree Density
The density of acceptable native trees should be consid-
ered. Large stands of four to six inch Post Oaks, or
Black Jack Oaks,-can be thinned to reduce competition
for sunlight and soil nutrients. This allows the
remaining trees to fill out and thrive.
Patios, Sidewalks, Driveways and Parking Lots
Both oxygen and water are essential to the growth,
development and nutrient uptake of the root systems. It
is for this reason that there should be careful selec-
tion and placement of construction materials for patios,
sidewalks, driveways and parking lots.
The construction of a patio, sidewalk, driveway or park-
ing lot using impermeable, impervious materials such as
concrete or brick on a mortar base within the drip line
(please see Figure ~1) of a tree should be avoided.
Especially if the tree is large and old. As stated
previously large, old trees do not adapt as well to
environmental changes as young trees.
If a patio, sidewalk, drive or parking lot must be
placed within the drip line of a tree, material that
will allow the passage of water and oxygen should be
used. Examples of such materials would be brick, flag-
stone, concrete blocks, or a bed of gravel and sand.
Precast, perforated concrete blocks 'are manufactured
that can be used as a solid driving/walking surface
under trees which will still allow water and oxygen to
reach the tree roots.
-3-
tirade Changes
The change of grade around a tree should be made only if
absolutely necessary. There are only two basic types of
grade changes, and trees have to be protected from both.
One is raising the grade, the other is lowering the
grade.
Again, tree roots need oxygen, water and proper nutrient
uptake to survive. When the grade level is changed by
removing soil from the top of the root zone, or by
adding soil over the top of the root zone, the tree has
difficulty obtaining the normal amount of oxygen, water
and nutrients
Raising the grade over a tree's root zone six inches or
less can be considered a minor grade change. A good
topsoil, high in organic matter and of a loamy texture
should be used. Heavy clay materials should never be
used even with minor grade changes of six inches or .
less.
Major changes of grade, six to eighteen inches, will
require additional measures to maintain proper oxygen
and water exchange with the roots.
With major grade changes, a retaining wall, or well, of
rock or brick should be constructed around the tree
approximately one to two feet from the tree trunk
(please see Figure ~2). The top of the-retaining wall
should be at the new grade.
An aeration system should be constructed of 4 to 6 inch
agricultural tiles, or perforated plastic pipe, radiat-
ing from the tree well to just outside the tree's drip
line. These radiating tiles can be connected with addi-
tional tiles or perforated pipe sloping away from the
tree to allow for excess moisture to drain away (refer
to Figure #2).
Vents of the or perforated pipe should be placed
upright around the aeration system and held in place
with rock or gravel. The entire system should then be
covered with coarse gravel, followed by smaller gravel,
and then a layer of straw or landscape fabric and good
topsoil until the desired grade is achieved (please see
Figure #3).
Another method can be used when the
more than 30 inches. Coarse grave].
should be placed over the root zone
with three to six inches of material
and gradually increasing to a depth
inches next to the trunk (please see
grade change is not
or large aggregate
of the tree starting
at the drip line
of eight to twelve
Figure ~4). The
-4-
coarse gravel or aggregate can reach the surface in the
area extending two feet around the trunk. Again, this
gravel or aggregate should be covered with straw or
landscape fabric and then with a good topsoil until the
new grade is achieved.
Lowering of the grade is not as complicated but can pro-
duce serious problems if roots are cut or exposed.
Grade lowering around trees can be handled by using
retaining walls (please see Figure ~5). Cuts of the
grade should occur only outside the drip line. Any
major root cuts should be sealed with an approved wound
dressing.
When a root system is reduced in a grade lowering, suf-
ficient tree top growth should be removed from the tree
to compensate for the root loss. The top growth removal
can vary from one-third to one-half, depending on the
severity of root Loss. The top pruning should be of a
thinning nature and should be done evenly over the tree
crown.
-5-
BHASE 2
Construction Pbase
During construction the following factors will have a signif-
icant influence on the preservation of acceptable native
trees. In many cases, these factors have been ignored and
the tree has died within two to three years after construc-
tion.
Markinq and Barriers:
Before construction begins, all the trees that have been
selected for preservation should be clearly marked and fences
should be constructed around each tree. The fences are con-
structed to protect the trunk from equipment damage and the
root zone from soil compaction by heavy equipment and con-
struction materials. The fencing should cover as wide an
area as possible and should be no closer to the trunk than
the outer most reach of the branches. Only after construc-
tion and site clean up are complete should the fences be
removed.
boil Contamination:
Soil contamination around selected trees should be avoided.
Gasoline and oil, soil stabilizers and concrete/cement waste
will all cause serious tree damage. Soil sterilants should
not be used anywhere in the construction site. Soil steril-
ants will move in the soil and will kill trees and other
desirable vegetation and persist in the soil for a consider-
able time into the future.
Open Fire:
Open fires on the construction site
away from selected trees as possible
to the trunk and canopy.
should be placed as far
to prevent heat damage
-6-
PHASE 3
Post Construction Phase
Following completion of construction the following factors
will significantly affect the preservation of acceptable
native trees.
Water Requirements:
Any additional vegetation such as trees, shrubs or ground
cover that will be planted on the site should have similar
water requirements as the existing tree population. For
example, if the majority of the population of trees are Post
Oaks, requiring only normal rainfall for survival, Bald
Cypress or Sweet Gum with a greater water requirement should
not be planted unless their water is received in a more
direct, localized manner such as through a drip irrigation
system.
Pruning Damaged Trees:
Any trees that might have had the root system damaged should
be pruned sufficiently to compensate for root loss. Any
damaged limbs should be removed and wounds sealed.
Recommended Trees For New Plantings:
In the instance that very few native trees were preserved
during the development, and new trees are desired, only those
trees considered long living and/or high quality should be
planted. The following is a list of recommended high
quality, long living trees which are considered as ideal for
the Hurst area:
Overstory Trees: Range: 30-60'
* Live Oak (Quercus virginiana)
* Bur Oak (Quercus macrocarpa)
* Red Oak (Quercus shumardi)
* Cedar Elm (Ulmus crassifolia)
* Lacebark Elm (Ulmus parvifolia)
* Chinese Pistachio ((Pistacia chinensis)
* Pecan (Carya illinoiensis)
* Bald Cypress (Taxodium distichum)
* Sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua)
* Green Ash (Fraxinus pennyslvanica)
* Western Soapberry (Sapindus drummondii)
* Southern Magnolia (Magnolia grandiflora)
* Slash Pine (Pinus elliotii)
* Japanese Black Pine (Pinus thunbergii)
-7-
* Austrian Pine (Pinus nigra)
* Afghan Pine (Pinus eldaricaj
Accent Trees: Range: 10-20~
* Redbud (Cercis canadensis)
* Crape Myrtle, single trunk (Laegestroemia
indica)
* Yaupon Holly (Ilex vomitoria)
* Bradford Pear (Pyres calleryana)
* Texas Sophora (Sophora secundiflora)
* Wild Plum (Prunus americana)
* Crab Apple (Males augustifolia)
* Decidious Holly (Ilex decidua)
* Flameleaf Sumac (Rhus copallina)
* Cherry-Laurel (Prunus caroliniana)
* Chaste Tree (Vitex Agnes-castes)
Trees Not Recommended For Planting:
The following list of trees are considered less acceptable
for planting in the City of Hurst:
* Hackberry (Celtis occidentalis)
* Sycamore (Plantanius occidentalis)
* Silver Maple (Acer saccharinum)
* Mulberry (Mores alba)
* Arizona Ash (Fraxinus velutina)
* Cottonwood (Populus deltoides)
* Mimosa (Albizia julibrissen)
These trees should be avoided because of insect and disease
problems in addition to problems with weak wood, messy hab-
its, and potential damage to sewers and concrete.

City Staff requests assistance from the Park Board
in the establishment of ordinances/policies that
address the following issues:
1. Park curfew
2. closing game fields when fields are not playable. ,,
3. allocating field usage by City Staff to association
4, limiting and/or prohibiting individuals and groups
to solict and provide programs on City property for
private gain
The above issues are of concern to City Staff because
of scheduling conflicts, playing on athletic fields which
are not playable, along with others. To alleviate
these and other situations which will surface in the
future, ordinances and policies need to be considered.

Mr. Chris Hawkins
Mayor, City of Colleyville
Colleyville, Texas 76034
Dear Chris;
March 15, 1990
There are two issues currently before the City Council that
the Park Board has evaluated.
Mill Creek
The Park Board feels that the developer should provide detailed
engineering plans for the proposed park before any further
action is taken by the Council on this issue. These plans
should be reviewed by Schrickel Rollins. They can provide
an objective evaluation of the proposal and evaluate the
potential for a Park Grant for Mill Creek. We feel that
Mill Creek could be a great asset to our park system.
Ross Downs
The Park Board feels that the current proposal is a very
liberal interpretation of the PUD ordinance. The ordinance
calls for 20/ open space and this proposal contains less
than 9%. Our board feels that the development should contain
the 20/ open space called for in the ordinance. However,
if the council is going to approve Ross Downs as currently
proposed, we recommend that the Council stipulate that the
developer pay for the development of the neighborhood park
site. To properly plan and develop the park could cost
$450,000.00 (rough estimate attached). We would like to
work with the Ross Downs Developer to achieve a quality
neighborhood park.
We appreciate the support the Council has shown for the
decisions of the Park Board.
Very truly yours,
G~A,-,r,. ~ , c~~-~a"~~
