From TML:
Is a city required to follow competitive procurement procedures in order to
contract for solid waste disposal services with a value of greater than $50,000?
No. Texas cities must generally follow competitive bidding or proposal procedures
if the city enters into a contract requiring the expenditure of more than $50,000
in city funds. Tex. Loc. Gov’t Code § 252.021. However, Local Government Code
Section 252.022(a)(2) provides that a purchase necessary to preserve or protect
the public health or safety of the city’s residents is excepted from the competitive
purchasing requirements. Though the statute does not expressly provide that the
provision of solid waste disposal services falls within the Section 252.022(a)(2)
exception, Texas courts have construed the provision in this manner. See, e.g.,
Browning-Ferris, Inc. v. City of Leon Valley, 590 S.W.2d 729 (Tex. Civ. App.—San
Antonio 1979, writ ref’d n.r.e.) (construing statutory predecessor). For example,
in the City of Weslaco case discussed above, the court held “that a competitive
bid for the franchise in question was not required.”
Local Government Code 252.021
•Colleyville Code of Ordinances: Chapter 82- Solid Waste
•The code may need to be amended based on City Council direction and/or
the need to clean up certain language for clarity or consistency
•Current code highlights-
•Garbage collection 2x / week; recycling collection 1x / week
•Recycling containers provided by city’s contractor
•“Trash” definition includes leaves and grass clippings
•“Brush” definition = bundled branches (max. 4 feet and 50 lbs.)
•“Bulk” definition = brush (unbundled or exceeds size/weight for bundles) or large items
•Garbage placed curbside max. 24 hours prior to pickup; Recycling max. 12 hours prior
to pickup
•Must be placed curbside by 7 a.m. on day of collection
•Customers shall notify contractor of noncollection within 24 hours
Code of Ordinances, Chapter 82
•Charges and payment
•Automated collection
•Manual collection
•Collection limits or take-all policies
•Seasonal challenges
•Current Colleyville contract vs. practice
Waste Collection 101
•Residential customers pay for garbage and recycling with their monthly
utility bill, which is overseen by City staff; City remits payment to
contractor
•Residential Garbage and recycling charges are charged to every
household, regardless of whether they place garbage or recycling
materials out each week (even if they turn in the recycling cart)
•Additional recycling carts can be provided for an additional fee per
month
•Commercial customers pay the contractor directly, with charges based
on collection frequency and volume of collection (standard recycling
cart or size of garbage or recycling dumpster)
Charges and Payment
•Usually for garbage collection
•Contractor employees personally lift each bag or bundle and put it in
the garbage truck
•More employees (driver plus helpers on the back that lift bags) creates
more cost
•Necessitates a limit of 50 lbs. per bag, item, or bundle
Manual Collection
•Usually for recycling, when standard rolling carts are issued
•Costs is often less due to fewer employees needed (only a driver)
•Only items in carts can be collected; no stacked items next to cart
•If standard garbage carts are issued, automated collection may be used for
garbage, but is almost always paired with a separate weekly bulk/brush collection
Automated Collection
•Limited by number of trips to the landfill that each truck can make during
allowable collection hours & DOT regulations on number of hours a driver
can drive
•Staffing (employees & vehicles) for normal loads or for max loads
•Impacts of take-all vs. limits
•Price will be affected by policy
•Discuss acceptable options on
heavy collection days or firm take
-all policy
Seasonal Challenges
Currently in Colleyville
Contract
•Take all household garbage and
bagged leaves
•Take up to 4 bundles of brush (max
50 lbs. each) per collection; if not
bundled, materials must be placed in
a disposable container; Additional
bundles collected for a fee
•Bulky items, brush, or trees collected
up to 4 cubic yards at a time, up to 4
times per year; Additional collected
for a fee
Practice
•Take all of everything, unless route may
not be completed (then some leaf bags
have been left)
•Take all bundled brush (if it will not cause
the route to not be completed); rarely
charge a fee
•Unlimited bulk pickups; rarely charge a fee
Issues to Consider:
•Garbage collection
•Can be take-all or have a limit on number of bags or bundled limbs
•Consider whether bagged leaves are included
•Bundled brush
•Consider whether bundled brush is included in take-all garbage policy, has a maximum
number per collection, or is collected on a separate bulk/brush day
•Unbundled brush
•Can be taken as one of four bulk pickups with a max. limit
•Some cities charge a fee for any unbundled piles
•Bulk
•If number of bundled limbs taken with regular garbage collection is limited, bulk pickup
may include bundles beyond that limit
•Large appliances, Bulk items (like mattresses), Moving boxes
•Consider number of bulk collections- 4 per year, weekly, monthly, take-all with garbage

WS-1 Discussion of Temporary Business Signs - State Highway 26
SH26 Coordinator James Hubbard presented this item and answered questions of
the City Council.
Mayor Newton asked staff if the proposed sign changes are for during the
construction time of SH26. Coordinator Hubbard replied correct; a 7.1 section
could be added.
Mayor Newton asked staff if that section would go away after the construction.
Coordinator Hubbard replied correct.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff if the current code states 90 days max.
Coordinator Hubbard replied that was discussed previously, and there was some
concern about the construction timing and length of the project.
Councilmember Lindamood suggested waiving the permit fee, but only during
construction to help the businesses along the corridor. Mayor Newton stated he
would rather alleviate the fee rather than change the code.

City Council Minutes - DRAFT December 20, 2016
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked Mayor Newton how often the businesses would have
to reapply. Mayor Newton replied every 30 days.
Councilmember Short asked City Council about the purpose of the signs.
Councilmember Nakamura replied to help people find the businesses during
construction. Mayor Pro Tem Putnam added it will show where the driveways are
located rather than the actual business.
Councilmember Taylor asked staff why the businesses could not go ahead and add
their permanent business signs. Coordinator Hubbard replied most business signs
are already in place, and the temporary signs are meant to be for marketing
purposes. Mayor Pro Tem Putnam stated the code allows these currently.
Councilmember Taylor stated having concerns about it being trashy with signs.
Councilmember Lindamood stated he wants to help the businesses stay in
Colleyville. He stated this is a temporary fix.
Councilmember Short asked staff if the temporary signs would be on private
property. Coordinator Hubbard replied yes.
Councilmember Nakamura agreed about going above and beyond for the
businesses. Mayor Pro Tem Putnam stated he does not know what this will give
them.
Councilmember Short stated there could be a temporary sign along SH26 for every
business. Councilmember Lindamood stated it would be for a short period of time.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam suggested the businesses should use the existing
ordinance, and we should not make it easier for them to proliferate signs.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked staff what about making the sign portable.
Coordinator Hubbard replied it is not that it cannot be done that way currently, the
code does not state one way or the other about staking the sign or not.
Councilmember Coplen asked City Council if the permit fee is going to be waived
temporarily. Mayor Newton replied it could be. Mayor Pro Tem Putnam replied for
a classified period of time in a specified geography, such as SH26 corridor. Mayor
Newton agreed, and if problems begin to exist, then City Council can revisit this.
Councilmember Taylor suggested Coordinator Hubbard should use good common
sense and know when to come back to City Council with any issues.
WS-2 Discussion and update on the Pleasant Run Road Project
City of Colleyville Page 3
City Council Minutes - DRAFT December 20, 2016
Public Works Director Jeremy Hutt presented this item and answered questions or
the City Council.
Nathan Ante, Kimley Horn, presented this item and answered questions of the City
Council.
Councilmember Lindamood asked Mr. Ante if a hydraulic study has been
completed. Mr. Ante replied a drainage area map has been completed which
indicates the flows.
Councilmember Lindamood asked Mr. Ante if a detention pond is necessary. Mr.
Ante replied some sort of baffle blocks may be necessary.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked Mr. Ante about the 18 inch curb. Mr. Ante pointed
out the location of the ribbon curb on the presentation.
Councilmember Lindamood asked Mr. Ante if the proposed sidewalk is 10 feet in
width. Mr. Ante replied there is a 10 foot sidewalk proposed everywhere except on
the north end, and it then narrows down to 6 foot in width.
Councilmember Lindamood asked Mr. Ante if an eight foot sidewalk width would
provide a better buffer area. Mr. Ante replied the buffer is plenty, and there is
already an eight foot wide sidewalk along some of the roadway.
Councilmember Lindamood asked Mr. Ante if the eight foot sidewalk width will
expand to a 10 foot wide sidewalk. Mr. Ante replied that is a good point, and he
did not believe they would expand the width.
Mayor Newton asked staff about the width of the trail in the park. Parks Manager
Heather Dowell replied part of the park trail is six feet in width and part of it is
eight feet in width.
Councilmember Short asked Mr. Ante if the goal is to get the sidewalk as far away
from the street as possible. Mr. Ante replied he believes the sidewalk can be
meandered as far away as possible; however, the biggest challenge is where the
fence line runs within the right-of-way and a swale exists.
Councilmember Short asked Mr. Ante if the fence is in the public right-of-way. Mr.
Ante replied yes, the fence is in the right-of-way. The sidewalk can be fit, but it
may be up higher than the fence as it currently exists.
Mayor Newton asked Mr. Ante how far is the fence in the right-of-way. Mr. Ante
replied 10 feet or so.
Councilmember Short asked Mr. Ante about the sidewalk on the west side. Mr.
Ante showed where the sidewalk ends on the west side on the exhibit.
City of Colleyville Page 4
City Council Minutes - DRAFT December 20, 2016
Councilmember Short asked City Council about extending the sidewalk all along
the west side. Mayor Newton asked if there is a need for it. Mr. Ante stated right-
of-way is available, and the bar ditches are not as bad.
Mayor Newton asked Mr. Ante if there are any fences in the right-of-way along the
west side. Mr. Ante replied he did not believe so.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked Mr. Ante about the cost of a west side sidewalk. Mr.
Ante replied $250,000-$300,000. Mayor Pro Tem Putnam suggested waiting to
see what the overall project costs are before committing to the sidewalk.
Mayor Newton asked Mr. Ante about the cost of the project without the west side
sidewalk. Mr. Ante replied $4.1 million, and originally the cost was budgeted at
$4.3 million.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam stated he would support the west side sidewalk if the cost
could be kept within the $250,000-$300,000 cost range. Councilmember Coplen
agreed.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam stated Phase 3 (LD Lockett to John McCain) of the project
is the worst section, and it should be done the soonest.
Councilmember Taylor asked Mr. Ante if there will be total road closure for
construction, or just one lane. Mr. Ante replied one lane will always be
maintained. Director Hutt clarified that direction would not be changed; if north
bound was established, it would be north bound only for that 12 week period. He
stated the direction would not switch for the morning and evening rush hours.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked staff about the anticipated start date. Director Hutt
provided an estimated project timeline; May 2017 – Final Design Complete; May
2017 – Bidding; June 2017 – Public Meeting; July 2017 – Start Construction;
Spring 2018 – End Construction.
Mayor Newton asked staff about the width of the Cotton Belt Trail. Director Hutt
replied 10 feet.
WS-3 Demonstration of OpenGov, the City's financial transparency portal
Strategic Services Manager Adrienne Lothery presented this item and answered
questions of the City Council.
Councilmember Taylor asked staff if the gold or platinum recognition has gone
away. Manager Lothery replied yes, as a part of the Leadership Circle, getting
stars in each of the categories has replaced the gold or platinum recognition.
City of Colleyville Page 5
City Council Minutes - DRAFT December 20, 2016
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam stated he was less concerned about the recognition and
more about the tool for Colleyville residents to use.
Councilmember Short asked staff if the information is currently on the website,
but hard to find. Manager Lothery replied correct, and the information is updated
weekly because OpenGOV is linked with our financial software, MUNIS.
Councilmember Coplen asked staff if the changes are updated manually or
automatically. Manager Lothery replied it is a live feed and is updated
automatically. This is one of the reasons to use OpenGOV, as it is a little more
turnkey, with not a lot of staff to manage it.
Mayor Newton asked staff if she is currently presenting our data. Manager Lothery
replied yes.
Councilmember Taylor asked staff how much historical data is available. Manager
Lothery replied there is at least three years of historical data.
Councilmember Taylor asked staff if they could go further back and add data.
Manager Lothery replied there is three years of historical data because the finance
system was changed three years ago. She also stated the intent is not to drop off
old data, but to continue to add new data every year.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked staff if internal tools are being evaluated as well.
Manager Lothery replied staff has not looked into any other platforms, at least not
until this platform was launched.
Councilmember Taylor asked staff when this will be available for the public.
Manager Lothery replied that is up to City Council, relative to what features they
want.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff when the new website would be available.
City Manager Jennifer Fadden replied staff is still working on the website design,
based on comments received from the City Council in September. She stated the
thought was to launch the finance tool during State of the City in January.
Councilmember Taylor asked staff who is “we” for working on the website design.
City Manager Jennifer Fadden replied staff has been working with the Mayor and
the current website vendor. Mayor Newton added they have had a conference call
with a vendor he met at TML to discuss design. He stated having concerns about
the current design.
Councilmember Taylor asked Mayor Newton about the launch, given that they
were already working with a vendor. Mayor Newton stated the design was
presented; however, he held up the launch after staff presented the new website
design in the worksession.
City of Colleyville Page 6
City Council Minutes - DRAFT December 20, 2016
Councilmember Taylor asked Mayor Newton if there will be a change in the
vendor. Mayor Newton replied there is a possibility in a vendor change if we chose
to do that.
Councilmember Taylor asked Mayor Newton about an approximate time to launch
the website. Mayor Newton replied likely during the first quarter of calendar year
2017.
Councilmember Coplen asked staff if there were any questions on the citizen’s
survey relative to new data. Manager Lothery replied no.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff if anyone will know what the enterprise
fund is. City Manager Jennifer Fadden explained this information is pulled directly
from the financial software. Manager Lothery stated if you click on enterprise
fund, it takes you to the Utility and Drainage Funds.
Mayor Newton asked staff if this is running on their server. Manager Lothery
replied she would have to check.
Councilmember Taylor asked staff if the link has been sent to the City Council.
Manager Lothery replied no, and since it is not live, she can only invite members
as users, which will allow you to look at it in a non-editing mode.
Councilmembers liked having this feature launched at the State of the City event.
WS-4 Discussion of the December 20, 2016, City Council regular agenda items

onto his house. Director Bryner agreed, and stated one scenario in which he would
not be able to add onto the house would be if they were to add a bedroom from
the garage. He stated this is a building code regulation.
Mayor Newton stated being concerned that the size of the proposed building is so
much more than the code allows.
City of Colleyville Page 11
City Council Minutes - DRAFT December 20, 2016

accessory building are the same as the house. Mr. Meierhofer replied yes,
identical, painted brick and hardy siding, and stained cedar.
Councilmember Lindamood asked Mr. Meierhofer if the accessory building could be
connected to the house rather than a standalone building. Mr. Meierhofer replied
that was what he originally wanted to do; however, he was told by the plans
examiner that the addition would not fit within the building setback of 25 feet.

Mayor Newton asked staff if the zoning exhibit could be attached to the SUP
ordinance as Exhibit C. Director Bryner replied the Land Development Code is
written in that a detailed plan or a conceptual plan must be submitted, but there
are no regulatory mechanisms in place that would require it to be attached.
Mayor Newton asked staff if there is anything stopping City Council from
requesting it to be attached as Exhibit C. Director Bryner replied it will need to be
determined at what time the property owner would need to come back for
rezoning, in the event changes are needed to the site plan. He added to be able to
actually tie a design to it, would be through a PUD zoning district.
City of Colleyville Page 13
City Council Minutes - DRAFT December 20, 2016
Mayor Newton asked staff about the joint access easement between the two
commercial properties. Director Bryner replied the access is strongly encouraged
specifically for connectivity and safety access.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked staff if they are satisfied with this relative to the
public safety aspect. Director Bryner replied staff has not officially reviewed the
site plan; however, it does appear to satisfy the requirements of the fire lane.
Councilmember Taylor asked staff if the building location, Exhibit C, could be
attached to the ordinance. Director Bryner replied the way to do that would be
through a PUD, but not with a straight zoning request.
Councilmember Taylor stated if the applicant wanted to make changes to the site
plan, they would not have to come back to City Council for approval, because the
site plan is not attached to the zoning ordinance. Director Bryner replied correct,
unless a different zoning district is requested, such as a PUD.
Mayor Newton asked staff if the applicant will have to come back to the City for
platting. Director Bryner replied yes, for the plat through Planning and Zoning
Commission, but there will be no design elements located on the plat.
Olanrewaju Sobo, applicant, came forward to present to the City Council and
answer their questions.
Mayor Newton asked Mr. Sobo if the joint access is something he has discussed
with the adjacent property owner, and what is the status. Mr. Sobo replied as soon
as he met with the neighbors, he met with staff about the location of the building,
especially with the Fire Marshal about the access.
Mayor Newton asked Mr. Sobo if the adjacent property owner would agree to the
easement. Mr. Sobo replied the Fire Marshal stated if two buildings are
commercially zoned, it is an automatic requirement to have this easement.
Mayor Newton asked staff if the adjacent property owner will have to agree to the
easement. Director Bryner replied yes.
Councilmember Taylor asked Mr. Sobo if the new building will be two story. Mr.
Sobo replied yes.
Mayor Newton opened the public hearing at 8:57 p.m.
Kathy Hadley, 204 Timberline Drive North, filled out her speaker card to speak in
opposition to this request; however, she stated being good with the church use,
but asked City Council to be careful about future uses.

6. ORDINANCE(S): FIRST READING AND PUBLIC HEARING
6a Ordinance O-16-2002
Approval of an ordinance repealing Ordinance O-02-1322 and
Ordinance O-13-1896 and amending the Financial Disclosure and
Business Conflict of Interest Forms
Mayor Newton read the caption of Ordinance O-16-2002.
City Secretary Amy Shelley presented this item and briefed the City Council.
Mayor Newton suggested adding “direct or indirect” to the following statement, in
front of “contractual relationship” on Sections 2 or 3. “The name and address of
any person or corporation which currently has or during the preceding twelve (12)
months has had a “direct or indirect” contractual relationship with the City and
from which the person(s), their spouse or dependent minor children have received
a fee, salary, or gift of value exceeding one hundred dollars ($100.00).” He stated
the reasoning is that sometimes you have companies that do not have a direct
relationship, but they have another company that does a subcontract in the first
one as the City, so that is why it would make sense to add that into the form.
Councilmember Short asked Mayor Newton if that is a common definition of
indirect. City Attorney Whitt Wyatt answered that he believes the language would
comply with the City Charter, having both direct and indirect, and it is provided by
state law how that applies, and it does apply in certain circumstances to indirect
relationships. He stated the inclusion of that language would revert it back to state
law, and would provide more clarity.
Councilmember Short stated he wants to ensure the persons filling out the form
understand what an indirect relationship is. Councilmember Taylor stated these
City of Colleyville Page 15
City Council Minutes - DRAFT December 20, 2016
would be known indirect relationships, because you may have an indirect
relationship and not even know it. City Attorney Whitt Wyatt replied the addition of
the language would be a clarity addition as there is no legal imposition of adding it
for clarity. The legal requirement was to be placed on the form to be governed by
the Charter, and there are plenty of circumstances where an indirect relationship
would trigger your reporting on this form under the Charter regardless of whether
or not it states indirect or not on there. He stated adding those on the form to
provide that clarity is okay, but you are still going to get that reporting by law.
Mayor Newton opened the public hearing at 9:06 p.m.
There was no one present wishing to speak and Mayor Newton closed the public
hearing at 9:06 p.m.

2. PRESENTATION AND DISCUSSION
2a Review and discussion of proposed amendments to the Comprehensive
Plan, Destination Colleyville
Daniel Harrison and Wendy Shabay, F&N, presented this item and answered
questions of the City Council.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked Mr. Harrison if the density calculation includes infill
development. Mr. Harrison replied it includes vacant land.
Councilmember Taylor asked Mr. Harrison if redevelopment is not being
considered. Mr. Harrison replied correct, and stated a statement/text box could be
added which states “this number can fluctuate based upon some redevelopment of
existing lots that aren’t considered in this four hundred + acres.”
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked Councilmember Taylor how you would think about
the converting of a five acre lot. Councilmember Taylor replied that is
redevelopment.
Mayor Newton stated he believed that specific property (5 acre lot) was counted
within the 400+ acres. Senior Planner Shane Pace stated it was a parcel by parcel
analysis, and what was vacant residentially zoned properties. He stated not
knowing if that particular property was included.
Councilmember Coplen asked Mr. Harrison if his calculation only includes vacant
land. Mr. Harrison replied yes.
City of Colleyville Page 2
City Council Minutes - DRAFT December 12, 2016
Councilmember Short asked if by stating “ensure tree canopies and quality
landscaping are created and maintained,” are we talking about private property.
Mr. Harrison replied yes, but private and public property relative to tree
preservation. He added it can also represent entryways for neighborhoods.
Councilmember Short asked Mr. Harrison, for clarity, that we do not want to
dictate someone’s landscaping in their front yard. Mr. Harrison replied correct.
Councilmember Lindamood asked Mr. Harrison if it should be clarified. Mr. Harrison
replied we can specify as public or HOA land. Mayor Newton suggested public or
common space.
Councilmember Coplen asked Mr. Harrison if having a larger buffer area, relative
to homes abutting streets, would be in agreement or conflict with the plan. Mr.
Harrison replied it would be in agreement with it.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked Mr. Harrison about this statement, “Maintain current
built density or less in existing neighborhoods as redevelopment occurs”, and if
the hard 1.8 density conflicts with this statement, or leaves us open to any
conflicts. Upon further discussion, Mayor Pro Tem Putnam was fine with this
statement.
Councilmember Short asked Mr. Harrison if the style and character of the homes is
mentioned within the character of the neighborhood. Mr. Harrison replied we
could, and part of the plan would be “do we want to maintain this character in the
homes, or include this type of character in the homes.” Mayor Newton stated that
really may not be ours to address. Councilmember Coplen added most HOAs will
have their own standards. Councilmember Nakamura stated she believed that is
government telling homeowners how to do something.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked Mr. Harrison if these recalculations are consistent
with the first draft version of the comp plan, or have they changed. Planner Pace
replied he has not compared the two, but stated he would. Councilmember Coplen
stated the definition of density needs to be really tight.
Councilmember Lindamood asked Mr. Harrison about “Sections of eight to 10-foot
wide trails along the north parkway of Glade Road between Pool Road and
Heritage Avenue. Filling trail gaps along this section should be planned in order to
enhance connections to area schools, retail and dining closer to SH 121. However,
these enhancements should be done in a manner that maintains the character of
the existing road design.” Mayor Pro Tem Putnam answered that we know there is
going to be a contiguous pedestrian element and it does not necessarily have to be
8-10 feet wide along the roadway, and the plan acknowledges the pedestrian
element exists today. He added he is in agreement with the statement.
City of Colleyville Page 3
City Council Minutes - DRAFT December 12, 2016
Mayor Newton suggested removing the 8-10 foot reference, and just state
“sections of trails exist.”
City Councilmembers suggested changing “south” to “west” on item number 4 on
page 80.
Councilmember Short asked Mayor Newton if the McDonwell School Road
connectivity for the master thoroughfare plan should be discussed. Mayor Newton
replied no.
Councilmember Short asked Mr. Harrison about the 35 feet in height relative to
roof construction, and how that feels really close to an existing home, especially
when older homes are not constructed at that height. Mr. Harrison replied those
types of things can be specified through the PUD process to match the plan.
Mayor Newton asked Mr. Harrison about what the overlay zoning means on page
86. Mr. Harrison replied there are multiple zoning options, but the PUD option
would be the simplest. If you wanted to do an overlay, for a stretch of roadway,
we could set up some standards that would apply to that entire overlay area, and
you would not have to go through the PUD process. Councilmember Taylor added
the requirements for that overlay area are defined in the zoning, and therefore the
developers would basically be fast tracked because there would be no objection to
their development.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked City Council what the Overlook development is
zoned. Councilmember Short replied PUDR. Mayor Pro Tem Putnam stated we
could have forced a different setback standard as it abuts to Monticello.
Mayor Newton stated if we chose to go with an overlay area, the plan will provide
the statement that relates back to that overlay.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked City Council why it is important to state, “This could
also include reducing the use of cul-de-sac streets and increasing the number of
internal connected streets.” on page 88. Councilmember Coplen replied she has
had complaints that people are unable to get from one subdivision to the next,
because there are no connected streets. Councilmember Short stated the goal is to
get through subdivisions without having to get onto a main roadway, like John
McCain Road. Councilmember Taylor added he is looking at it from a first
responder or safety issue. Mayor Pro Tem Putnam stated he believes the
developers and homeowners like it that way. Mayor Newton stated this statement
is the right way to do it, even though people may not like it. Mr. Harrison added
no connectivity does add complications to school busses as well.
Councilmember Coplen asked Mr. Harrison if the statement about the tree
ordinance, page 89, provides for further investigation of the ordinance if
necessary. Mr. Harrison replied yes, and action items have been provided.
City of Colleyville Page 4
City Council Minutes - DRAFT December 12, 2016
Councilmember Nakamura stated developers should be held accountable for clear
cutting or removing trees without permission. Mayor Pro Tem Putnam agreed and
stated the tree ordinance is being reviewed.
Councilmember Short stated being concerned we have gone from having plenty of
parks, to being way under, relative to park standards, as it is stated in the plan.
Mayor Newton stated having the same concern. Mr. Harrison stated the ratio was
updated relative to population and acreage. He clarified that when looking at park
ratios, we are looking at the “x” amount of park, not necessarily the number of
parks.
Mayor Newton asked Mr. Harrison how Colleyville aligns with the national park
standard, under the assumption that public parks are only considered. Mr.
Harrison replied Colleyville is good. Councilmember Short stated the plan states
Colleyville would have to add 90 acres, given the private park system; however,
with the public park acreage, the City is fine. Mr. Harrison stated based on what
the community wants, and based on the data, Colleyville is within the standard.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked Ms. Shabay why the standard is important. Ms.
Shabay replied the NRPA standards are just a guide, and sometimes you are not
going to meet those standards. She stated there are times when you can use that
to your advantage relative to grants or park dedication.
Councilmember Coplen suggested adding a section to reflect the fact that some
subdivisions have their own private open space which may or may not be used as
parks. Councilmember Lindamood agreed it would eliminate the guessing.
Mayor Newton stated he would not use the private parks in computing the
standard. Councilmember Coplen agreed, but stated she would like a separate
statement about the private parks. Mr. Harrison stated it could be added.
Mayor Newton suggested adding (LID) after Low Impact Development on page
109. Mr. Harrison acknowledged.
Mayor Newton stated he would like the following statement to read: 1.8 dwelling
units per “net” acre….and no more than 2 dwelling units per “gross” acre on page
115. Mr. Harrison acknowledged.
Councilmember Taylor asked Mr. Harrison what transition area means. Mr.
Harrison replied the concept in the plan as it currently exists, there is a regular 1.8
lower density area with a transitional area in between commercial and residential.
He stated the new plan still mentions the transitional area, but with different
buffering techniques.
City of Colleyville Page 5
City Council Minutes - DRAFT December 12, 2016
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam stated he did not believe they want to encourage
residential along SH26 as stated on page 123. Mr. Harrison stated it could be
changed to mixed use, if that is more appropriate. Councilmembers agreed.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam stated he did not want to preclude residential in mixed
use.
Councilmember Coplen stated she did not know that she would state “the single
most important” within the beautification project of SH26 on page 123 as a goal.
Mr. Harrison stated it could be reworded. Councilmember Coplen suggested “as a
goal, and leave out “the single most important.”
Mayor Newton asked Councilmember Coplen why. Councilmember Coplen replied it
is important but not the single most important.
Councilmember Nakamura asked Councilmember Coplen what is the single most
important reason. Councilmember Coplen replied there is no single most important
reason. She added how about “as a goal, the most important thing..”
Councilmembers agreed.
Councilmember Lindamood asked Mr. Harrison about dumpster screening or if they
are only subject to the direct plan statement, “shall be placed adjacent to the
building and in no case shall be placed within 20 feet of a residential property
line.” Mr. Harrison replied in some cases there will be dumpster screening or entire
screening walls.
Councilmember Short asked Mr. Harrison if the 10 feet is a hard 10 feet for the
light pole statement on page 136. Mr. Harrison replied as it relates to residential
areas, and it can be modified. Councilmember Coplen suggested this be in the
code and not in this plan. Councilmember Taylor suggested the plan should not be
punitive as commercial is commercial by nature, and be careful about
overreaching.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked City Council if currently there are regulations that
should be revisited about big box development. Councilmember Taylor agreed.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked staff if the regulations are still on the books. City
Manager Jennifer Fadden replied correct. Mayor Pro Tem Putnam suggested
looking at that section during the Land Development Code update discussions.
Councilmember Coplen suggested adding the other commercial areas on page
154. Mr. Harrison acknowledged, and stated they will let City Council know if there
is some reason those areas should not be added.
Councilmember Short suggested adding “and other appropriate locations” to page
154, in terms of pursuing other commercial areas. Mayor Newton agreed. He
City of Colleyville Page 6
City Council Minutes - DRAFT December 12, 2016
added Colleyville Boulevard is the prime corridor and the most significant;
however, we do not want to ignore the others.
Mayor Newton stated these changes are not drastic. He stated there will be three
public hearings (P&Z and City Council). Mayor Pro Tem Putnam stated the plan
needs to be publicized.
Councilmember Coplen suggested making a synopsis of the changes from the
previous plan.
City Manager Jennifer Fadden explained there is a 4-6 week lead time to be
inserted with the utility bills.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked staff if the changes could be generated for the next
Planning and Zoning Commission meeting. Community Development Director Ben
Bryner replied it would be close, but it is likely it could happen.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam stated the public notification does not need to be
dependent on the Communicator. Mayor Newton stated they could visit about the
timing of the update.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam stated now would be the time to discuss the change in the
moving of the power lines. Councilmember Taylor stated this needs to be
addressed now with the contractors to see if this can even be done.
Councilmember Short stated the lines could be moved to the rear of the
properties.

2. PRESENTATION AND DISCUSSION
2a Presentation and discussion on the City of Colleyville Storm Drainage
System
Director of Public Works Jeremy Hutt presented this item and answered questions
of the City Council.
Councilmember Lindamood asked about the type of retaining wall at Martin
Parkway. Director Hutt replied some gable stone does exist at this location.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff the location of this bridge. Director Hutt
replied at Martin Parkway, in the southern part of town, in between Cheek-Sparger
Road and Glade Road.
Councilmember Lindamood asked staff if the blocks in the channel at Jewel Estates
help to slow the flow of water. Director Hutt replied the slower flow was a
combination of opening up the channel, and lining the channel bottom, which
allowed the water to convey better.
Councilmember Lindamood asked staff if the water break blocks lined in the
bottom of creeks help to slow the water to help with drainage. Director Hutt
replied, relative to velocity control issues, you will see those in larger drainage
channels.
Councilmember Lindamood asked if staff has looked into something like that.
Director Hutt replied we have not looked at a product that would benefit that
particular scenario.
City of Colleyville Page 2
City Council Minutes - DRAFT December 12, 2016
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff how many times a year the water crossings
close. Director Hutt replied at least once a month, but that is dependent on the
storms.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff how much rain falls before the crossings are
closed. Director Hutt replied it depends on the amount of rain and the duration of
the storm.
Councilmember Lindamood asked staff if the headwalls around the crossings are
cleaned when the streets are cleaned. Director Hutt replied yes, anything in the
right-of-way is removed.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked staff about the yearly expenditures. Director Hutt
explained the following slide:
Councilmember Lindamood asked staff if the excess goes into the reserve. Director
Hutt replied yes, any revenues over expenditures will add to the unrestricted net
position.
Councilmember Lindamood asked staff how long those funds have been
accumulating, the $1.6 million. Director Hutt replied since 1993.
Councilmember Taylor asked staff if the $956,550 is the revenue stream based on
the number of meters. Director Hutt replied yes.
City of Colleyville Page 3
City Council Minutes - DRAFT December 12, 2016
Councilmember Lindamood asked staff if the property owner is only responsible for
the property line deeded to that property owner, relative to creeks. Director Hutt
replied yes, in conjunction with the maintenance of the parkway. The property
owner is responsible for keeping the area mowed and free of excessive debris and
trash.
Councilmember Lindamood asked staff if that would also include erosion control.
Director Hutt replied depending on what created the problem to begin with, the
property owner would be responsible for establishing the proper erosion control.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff if the rain water had created the normal
wear and tear, would that be the City’s responsibility. Director Hutt replied when it
starts to interrupt the drainage and functionality of the drainage system, the City
would then step in.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff if the modifications have been completed
with the Lakes of Somerset and Carmel Place Estates pond system. Director Hutt
replied yes.
Councilmember Lindamood asked staff if issues with the pond system created the
floodway change in the Carmel Place Estates development. Director Hutt replied
no.
Councilmember Short asked staff if siltation issues still exist. Director Hutt replied
no, there was a separation built between the two ponds.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff when the Tara subdivision was built. A
member of the audience replied the early 80s.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam stated the Tara subdivision does not have a fee based
HOA, and the creek issues are basically being impacted by privately owned
individuals. Director Hutt replied correct.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked staff about the example of a neighborhood, along
the creek, that had a separate assessment completed. Director Hutt replied yes,
there are examples of HOAs that have had assessments completed to show the
impact to their HOA.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff where the water and debris is coming from
to this creek. Director Hutt replied from rain, curb inlets, and fallen trees run into
that creek.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam suggested taking the information back to the residents and
have a separate worksession to discuss the cost impacts, not only the precedence
it will set, given the 29 miles of creeks to maintain. He added there are a limited
amount of resources, but there may be options, such as increasing the fee.
City of Colleyville Page 4
City Council Minutes - DRAFT December 12, 2016
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff if the Tara creek is the worst along the 29
miles. Mayor Pro Tem Putnam replied this is something that could be addressed
with the master plan. Councilmember Short stated his neighborhood had a similar
situation, and the residents put in money and an HOA assessment was completed.
Councilmember Taylor asked staff if this impedes the flow of the existing storm
water runoff, or is this just an unsightly area. Councilmember Nakamura
answered the erosion is coming up the back of those properties. Director Hutt
added the majority of the concerns are tied to the erosion side of it, and some
debris could accumulate over time and if not freed up, it could ultimately cause a
flow issue.
Councilmember Short asked staff about the options for a homeowner, in the
absence of City participation. Director Hutt replied some of the property owners
have looked at erosion control mitigation to offset or delay the issue.
Councilmember Short asked staff if there are regulations in place. Director Hutt
replied there are regulations the property owner would have to comply with, and
there are mitigation measures they could take on themselves, but they would have
to be in compliance.
Councilmember Lindamood asked staff who is ultimately responsible for keeping
the creek clean. Director Hutt replied the property owner is responsible; there are
no other policies in place.
Councilmember Nakamura asked the City Council if there are other property
owners in this same, unique situation, in which they cannot set up their own HOA.
Councilmember Taylor replied his neighborhood cannot establish an HOA without
90 percent property owner agreement.
Councilmember Lindamood asked staff if there is a small amount that we could
work with, not necessarily to accept responsibility. Director Hutt replied he did not
know.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked City Council if they have any other thoughts on the
process to address the situation. Councilmember Short replied there is an idea of a
Public Improvement District (PID) that could be set up to collect money; or the
property owners may have to dedicate property along the creek to make the
property public.
Councilmember Taylor asked City Council if the property owners are willing to
deed over an easement to solve the problem. Mayor Pro Tem Putnam replied some
have said yes, in the context of talking about dedication of right-of-way for park
land.
City of Colleyville Page 5
City Council Minutes - DRAFT December 12, 2016
Councilmember Short asked staff if the issue is with Little Bear Creek itself or
because of the other tributaries that feed into it. Director Hutt replied this
discussion is tied more to the section of Little Bear Creek.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff if the City has staff who specializes in this
or an expert. Director Hutt replied yes, there are staff members for drainage, and
there are experts on natural drainage relative to creeks; however, there is not
someone on staff with the level of expertise who can do this day in and day out.
Councilmember Lindamood asked staff if this type of study would be included in
the 2019 master plan. Director Hutt replied yes, and a consultant will be chosen
who has this level of expertise.
Councilmember Lindamood asked staff if the master plan update could be moved
up and done now rather than later. Director Hutt replied it could be slated for 2017
or 2018, based on City Council’s direction.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam suggested having a worksession with a limited topic of
Tara, to discuss options, cost impacts, and challenges the City may have, but with
solutions that would be doable, given the financial situation.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff when the meeting with the Preservation
took place. Director Hutt replied June of 2015, and staff met with the developer
who built the infrastructure.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff if it was with the current builder. Director
Hutt replied it was not, staff met with the original developer, who then sold off the
lots.
Councilmember Taylor suggested pre depth tests/measurements be taken of the
ponds, particularly the ones downstream to ensure those residents are not having
to pay for upstream development, and maybe done at the time of development.
Councilmember Lindamood asked staff if there is a moratorium on green tags until
everything is completely finished. Director Hutt replied staff is completing
extensive site inspections before green tags can be issued to ensure compliance
with the original development.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam stated had some sort of process been in place in the
beginning, such as an escrow account, these issues could have been remediated
quickly on behalf of the impacted residents. Councilmember Taylor agreed and
stated that money could have been used to dredge the pond.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked staff if anything like this is in place. Director Hutt
replied there was an escrow set up during the early part of development to
City of Colleyville Page 6
City Council Minutes - DRAFT December 12, 2016
address dredging the Bridges at Riverwalk pond, which was specifically tied to the
PUD zoning case. He stated he is not aware of any cities where funds are set up
and allowed to be reimbursed over time based on completion.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam suggested an action item to look at options.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff what can be done. Director Hutt replied
staff is currently working with the HOA to determine predevelopment siltation
versus development siltation and once the data has been determined, enforcement
actions are being considered.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked staff what the enforcement actions would be.
Director Hutt replied taking enforceable action before the builder is allowed to
proceed.
Councilmember Lindamood asked staff if moving forward ponds could be lined.
Director Hutt replied that is an option, but the fine siltation particles are still going
to get through erosion control.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff if a liner would have helped the pond.
Director Hutt replied once the vegetation is established and the discoloration is
gone, and the homes and all of the construction is done, the pond should clear up.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff when the project is scheduled to be
complete. Director Hutt replied the development is complete, but the homes are
still being constructed, and the completion of home construction is dependent on
when the last lot is sold. Councilmember Nakamura stated being concerned the
home builder will be gone before the issues are fixed.
Councilmember Nakamura asked staff if someone is going by the development like
they are supposed to be. Director Hutt replied staff performs post rain inspections,
as well as regular weekly inspections.
Councilmember Lindamood stated the Mayor wanted these issues to be resolved
before any green tags were issued.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked Councilmember Lindamood what needed to be
done. Councilmember Lindamood replied the drainage issues and inlet covers.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam asked staff where are we with the enforcement issues.
Director Hutt replied staff is working closely with the HOA relative to the pond, and
we are closely monitoring the home building sites with the active construction.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam suggested for the next follow up session, there should be a
discussion about general enforcement policies and/or maybe define policies.
City of Colleyville Page 7
City Council Minutes - DRAFT December 12, 2016
Councilmember Short asked City Council about expectations, noting you cannot
eliminate the pond being discolored. Councilmember Lindamood replied the pond
should have already established vegetation. Councilmember Short stated the
policy stuff in general or regulations. Councilmember Lindamood replied it is
important to have the SW3Ps in place to prevent this from happening.
Councilmember Taylor asked staff if the pond is collecting more than just from the
development. Director Hutt replied the pond is collecting from the development,
but the Bridges as Riverwalk pond is collecting from the curb inlets. He added the
Preservation pond will need to be dredged based on the amount of siltation
collected.
Councilmember Lindamood asked staff if the developer is responsible for dredging
the pond, even if the cost exceeds the $10,000 in escrow. Director Hutt replied
staff is looking for the appropriate enforcement action and the appropriate party
responsible.
Councilmember Short asked staff how often ponds need to be dredged. Director
Hutt replied it depends on the amount of contributing acreage, and construction
activity which contributes to runoff, as well as heavy rain events.
Councilmember Taylor asked staff if the builder will not get their last final until
there is a resolution with the pond. Director Hutt replied staff will have the
resolution before the last final is issued.
Councilmember Lindamood asked staff about the company who performed the
dredging. Director Hutt replied America Underwater.
Mayor Pro Tem Putnam stated the topics for a follow-up discussion include: the
timing of the master plan revision; a more tactical discussion about Tara options;
and the enforcement policy and maybe a more proactive approach to the
situations like the Preservation, or a mechanism to remediate on our own, without
having to serve as a go between with the developer.

There being no further business before the City Council, Mayor Pro Tem Putnam
adjourned the worksession at 8:07 p.m.

Approval of the first renewal term of the Interlocal Lease Agreement with Tarrant
County 9-1-1 for facility space at the Colleyville Justice Center, and authorize the city

C5- Achieve the highest standards of safety & security
Explanation
Reading and Public Hearing
The purpose of this item is to seek approval for the First Renewal Term of the Lease
Agreement with Tarrant County 9-1-1 for space at the Colleyville Justice Center.
The lease agreement allows Tarrant County 9-1-1 the use of approximately 2500
square feet of space located in the old dispatch and jail portions of the Colleyville
Justice Center. Tarrant County 9-1-1 utilizes the space as a back-up 9-1-1 Center. In
turn, the City of Colleyville is paid $15,000 annually.
The first renewal term of the lease will be for five (5) years. This coincides with the
contract with the cities of Keller and Southlake for Combined Public Safety Dispatching
Services.
The original lease agreement was entered into in October 2010 for a period of six (6)
years. The lease agreement with Tarrant County 9-1-1 was designed to directly
coincide with the Combined Public Safety Dispatching Services Agreement with the
cities of Keller and Southlake.
Staff recommends approval as the revenue generated through this lease agreement
serves to offset a portion of the cost of the Combined Public Safety Dispatching
Services Agreement.
Financial Impact
Tarrant County 9-1-1 will pay the City of Colleyville $15,000 annually during the term
of this lease. The total revenue generated will be $75,000, which will help offset the
cost of the Combined Public Safety Dispatching Service Agreement with the cities of
Keller and Southlake.

Explanation
Reading and Public Hearing
This item is in response to the winning essay written by Mayor for a Day London
DeZurik. In her essay Mayor for a Day DeZurik noted crosswalks and a citizen’s patrol
are just two of her ideas on how to make Colleyville the best it can be.
The authority to establish and designate crosswalks and establish school safety zones
and speed limits can be found in the Colleyville Code of Ordinances, Part II, Chapter 94
(attached). In addition to the regulations contained in the Code of Ordinances, School
Safety Zones are established and enforced per attached Ordinance O-11-1793.
There are also citizen boards, commissions, and committees, appointed by the City
Council which help provide recommendations to the City Council. Additionally, there is
a Citizens on Patrol (COP) program and a Citizens Fire Academy (CCFA), sponsored by
the police and fire departments respectively.
Approval of the attached resolution allows for the continued review and consideration
of crosswalks and school safety zones in accordance with the Colleyville Code of
Ordinances and all state regulations, and continues support for the Colleyville Citizens
on Patrol program.
Financial Impact
There is no financial impact to the City.

First Reading and Public Hearing
At the December 6, 2016 City Council Worksession, staff provided an overview of the

staff provided an overview of the attached proposed ordinance to repeal Ordinances O-

Brief Historical Overview: To ensure citizen trust of elected and appointed officials
of the City, City Council adopted Resolution R-01-1789, attached, which required, as a
matter of policy, Financial Disclosure and Business Conflict of Interest forms to be
submitted, and the city manager was to create the forms. In 2002, City Council
repealed this resolution by Ordinance O-02-1322, attached, which included detailed
explanations and a disclosure area map. In 2013, City Council amended that ordinance
by Ordinance O-13-1896, attached, which amended the filing dates for an occurrence
in changes, and the disclosure area map.
The purpose of this item is to repeal Ordinances O-02-1322 and O-13-1896 so that
there are no conflicts with the Charter amendments approved during the November 8,

Consideration for approval of amendments to Chapter 7 – Sign Regulations in the Land
Development Code regarding directory signage, specifically Section 7-150 Permanent

Freestanding Signs – Allowable Districts, and Section 7-165 Permanent Freestanding
Signs – Area, Height and Setback Requirements, Case GC16-019
Strategy Map Connection
B4- Cultivate a culture of transparency and consistent communication
Explanation
First Reading and Public Hearing
Staff proposes amendments to Chapter 7 – Sign Regulations in the Land Development
Code to allow for directory signage within the City of Colleyville. Specifically, Section 7-
150- Permanent Freestanding Signs – Sign Classifications & Regulations, Section 7-160
Permanent Freestanding Signs – Allowable Districts, and Section 7-165 Permanent
Freestanding Signs – Area, Height and Setback Requirements are proposed to be
amended. Currently, directory signage is not allowed. A request was made to install
directory signage at the Town Center Colleyville retail development. Due to the
center’s size and number of buildings, directory signage would help customers locate
specific businesses within the development. Thus, staff recommends reviewing current
ordinance provisions and amending the regulations to allow for directory signage.
Existing Conditions/Background: The subject property is currently known as Town
Center Colleyville and is developed as an approximately 275,000 square foot
commercial complex with a mix of retail, restaurant, office, and other commercial uses.
The development consists of a grocery store, a movie theater, several restaurants,
retail stores, and other commercial uses. Due to the large size and large number of
uses, the property owner is requesting to utilize some wayfinding signage, or directory
signage, to help customers locate the specific businesses situated within the
development. The subject property is zoned CC-2 Shopping Center district. These
types of signs are not permitted within the City of Colleyville.
Existing Ordinance Language: Per the Land Development Code (LDC), businesses
are allowed to have a monument sign and wall signage. Additionally, commercial
development which has a single or multi-occupancy building containing a minimum of
one hundred thousand (100,000) square feet of floor area and situated on a single
City Council Agenda Briefing 8a
City of Colleyville Page 2
platted lot or on two or more contiguous platted lots, shall be allowed major shopping
center entry-wall signs and plaques. However, these signs are located along the street
right-of-way or on the building and do not direct customers once internal to the
development.
The LDC already has a definition for Directory Signs: “A sign listing the occupants
within a shopping center, industrial site, retail district, office district, and commercial
site located on the same premises.” However, no regulation is contained within the
LDC for such signs.
The LDC does allow for traffic directional signs. The purpose of these signs are to guide
vehicular traffic into or out of commercial businesses by identifying a public entrance
and exit for vehicular traffic. These signs are restricted to six square feet in area and
30 inches in height.
Proposed Signage: Per the attached sign exhibits and site plan, the applicant is
proposing to install four directory signs within the interior of the site to help direct
customers to the specific businesses located within the development. The applicant is
proposing two signs to be double-sided with a height of 6’-3” and a width of 4’-0”. The
two other signs will be four-sided with the same dimensions as described above for
each side. The signs are proposed to be internally illuminated. The design will allow for
up to six business names listed per sign face with an arrow pointing toward the
direction of the business.
The locations of the signs are internal to the site and would be installed within existing
interior landscape islands. The closest distance to a public right-of-way is over 250 feet
from Church Street to the south. The sign exhibits and site plan are included as
attachment “A”.
Benchmark Review: The cities of Grapevine and Hurst do not have specific
regulations for directory signs. However, Grapevine has utilized ground signs for the
purpose of directing traffic at the mall and within other large developments with
approval of a Conditional Use Permit as allowed by their sign regulations. Similar to
Colleyville, the cities of Coppell, Keller, Flower Mound, and North Richland Hills allow
for traffic directional signs. But like Colleyville, these signs are small. The City of
Southlake regulates directory signs similar to what is being proposed. They are allowed
within commercial developments as long as they meet height and area requirements
and are set back from the property line adjacent to a street a minimum of 75 feet. A
full benchmark analysis is provided as attachment “B”.
Analysis– Large developments typically contain a number of uses making it difficult to
find a specific business without maneuvering through the entire development.
Directory signs, signs that provide a list of businesses and direct patrons to these
businesses, are an effective means of minimizing traffic conflicts and maximizing
customer movement. The best examples of directory signs are located at large regional
City Council Agenda Briefing 8a
City of Colleyville Page 3
malls. The names of the tenants are listed with an arrow pointing toward the business.
These signs are typically located near entrances and at other strategic locations.
The proposed regulations would be similar to those allowed by the City of Southlake;
however, the signs would only be available for major multi-tenant shopping centers
with 250,000 square feet of total commercial space, limited to four signs total, with a
maximum sign area of 25 square feet, and each directory sign must be constructed as
a monument sign, as defined in the LDC. The proposed language associated with the
amendments is included as attachment “C”.
The ordinance amendment request up for consideration is consistent with other
signage regulations for large commercial developments. As stated before, commercial
development containing a minimum of one hundred thousand (100,000) square feet of
floor area shall be allowed major shopping center entry-wall signs and plaques.
Additionally, the City Council can approve a major shopping center landmark sign for
such developments.
Based on the information provided for the Town Center Colleyville development, the
proposed two-sided directory signs will comply with the proposed area and height
regulations, but would need to be of a monument style sign. The four-sided signs
would not comply. The proposal does not appear to be of a nature anticipated to
adversely impact the adjacent properties.
Planning and Zoning Commission Recommendation: The Planning and Zoning
Commission recommended approval of this item at the December 12, 2016 meeting by
a vote of 6-0 with the following condition:
amend to 200,000 square feet for applicability
Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the amendment. The
proposed amendment is consistent with the land uses located on the subject property
and the governing zoning district.
Financial Impact
There is no financial impact to the City.

Title
Consideration for approval of amendments to Chapter 8 – Plat Review Procedures in
the Land Development Code regarding plat approval to be made by the City Council,
specifically Section 8 – 130 Approval Authority Over Subdivision Plats, Case GC16-020
Strategy Map Connection
B4- Cultivate a culture of transparency and consistent communication
Explanation
First Reading and Public Hearing
Staff proposes amendments to Chapter 8 – Plat Review Procedures in the Land
Development Code to require City Council approval of combination plats, preliminary
plats, final plats, and replats. Specifically, Section 8-130 - Approval Authority Over
Subdivision Plats is proposed to be amended. Currently, plats are approved by the
Planning and Zoning Commission. City Council requested staff present amendments to
Chapter 8 in an effort to require plat approval from the City Council.
Existing Conditions/Background: In 2014, the City Council directed staff to review
the procedures, specifically as they relate to the City Council's approval authority over
subdivision plats. Staff was directed, where possible, to remove the requirement the
City Council approve plats. This proposed amendment would reverse some of these
actions.
Plats differ from concept plans or site plans. The purpose of a plat is to show proper
subdivision of land. A plat typically is submitted after zoning has been established and
prior to obtaining a building permit. Additionally, a plat is a technical document that
identifies property boundaries, rights-of-way, and easements. The division of land is
reviewed against the zoning on the property to assure compliance with minimum lot
area, width, and depth requirements. Typically, no improvements are shown on a plat.
Site plans are required with every petition for a zoning district change to RD (Two
Family Residential), R-MF (Multi-Family Residential), MH (Mobile Home), C-PO
(Professional Office Commercial), CN (Neighborhood Commercial), CC (Commercial),
and ML (Light Manufacturing) district. Additionally, all Special Use Permit requests shall
be accompanied by a site plan and supporting documents of the area petitioned for a
zone change. The purpose of the site plan is to illustrate the logical arrangement of the
elements on the land and to show relationships of elements to each other. These
City of Colleyville Page 2
City Council Agenda Briefing 8b
elements include buildings, parking areas, driveways, screening, sidewalks, trails, and
landscaping, among other things.
Platting 101. Platting property is part of the development process. A subdivision plat
is a map of specific land showing the location and boundaries of individual parcels of
land subdivided into lots, with streets, alleys, and easements drawn to scale, which
must be recorded in the Tarrant County Clerk’s Office after it has received the requisite
approvals from the City. Cities are given the authority to require and regulate plats
from Chapter 212 of the Texas Local Government Code. The regulation of subdivision
platting is based upon the City’s legitimate interest in promoting orderly development;
insuring that subdivisions are constructed safely; and protecting future owners from
inadequate police and fire protection, inadequate drainage, and unsanitary conditions.
The Texas Local Government Code allows the City Council to approve a subdivision plat
or, if the City Council chooses, delegate the approval of a plat to the Planning and
Zoning Commission. In the case of Amending and Minor Plats, Chapter 212 states that
a City may delegate the approval authority of a plat to City staff.
Chapter 212 also requires cities to approve a plat that satisfies all applicable municipal
regulations, which includes zoning regulations, PUD ordinance requirements,
subdivision regulations, etc. This means the applicable approving body (staff, the
Planning and Zoning Commission, and/or the City Council) must approve the plat if it
meets all City development requirements. The legal reference for the requirement that
the approving body must approve a plat based on full compliance with City
requirements is called a "ministerial" action. The plat may only be denied by the
approving body if it does not comply with a particular City requirement. The legal
reference for the instance when the approving body has the option to approve or deny
the plat based on any non-compliance with a City ordinance is called a "legislative"
action.
A ministerial action, as it relates to a plat approval action, may be granted to City staff
where allowed by local ordinance and the Texas Local Government Code, the Planning
and Zoning Commission, and/or the City Council. A legislative action may only be
granted to the Planning and Zoning Commission and the City Council with no option for
staff approval.
Proposed Amendments. Given the platting information above and based on the City
Council's direction, staff reviewed the City's procedures as well as the procedures of
the seven cities that surround Colleyville. A full benchmark analysis is provided as
attachment “A”. Staff proposes the following amendments to Chapter 8-Plat Review
Procedures in the Land Development Code, which are also attached as mark-ups to
Chapter 8 in attachment “B”.
Changes to Plat Approval Authority
Staff proposes that certain plats again require approval by the City Council. This will
allow for review and oversight by the Council to ensure compliance with the approved
subdivision standards for the City of Colleyville. This would include combination plats,
preliminary plats, final plats, and replats.
City of Colleyville Page 3
City Council Agenda Briefing 8b
Staff recommends a minor change to the approval process for minor plats and
amending plats. These plats require minimal design, are truly minor in nature, and
therefore review and approval is performed by staff only, unless a waiver is requested,
which would then require approval from the Planning and Zoning Commission and City
Council.
Per the attached table, staff proposes the following changes to the approval authority
of plats by classification type:
Approving Body Responsible for Approving Plats
Classification of Plat Staff P&Z Council
Combination Preliminary/Final Plat No Yes No Yes
Preliminary Plats No Yes No Yes
Final Plats No Yes No Yes
Minor Plats Yes No*No*
Replat No Yes No Yes
Amending Plats Yes No*No*
* The Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council shall have the authority to approve a
Minor Plat and an amending Plat which has not been approved by City Staff.
1. Combination Preliminary/Final Plats – Changed to allow the City Council to have
final approval authority of the plat. Currently the Planning and Zoning Commission has
the final approval authority for a Combination Plat. If the plat application includes a
request for a waiver or modification of a platting regulation, then the City Council must
also approve the request.
2. Preliminary Plats - Changed to allow the City Council to have final approval
authority of the plat. Currently the Planning and Zoning Commission has the final
approval authority for a Preliminary Plat. If the plat application includes a request for
a waiver or modification of a platting regulation, then the City Council must also
approve the request. A waiver can include any waiver of a Land Development Code
requirement that pertains specifically to a plat such as lot size, lot width, right-of-way
dedication criteria, etc.
3. Final Plats - Changed to allow the City Council to have final approval authority of
the plat. Currently the Planning and Zoning Commission has the final approval
authority for a Final Plat. If the plat application includes a request for a waiver or
modification of a platting regulation, then the City Council must also approve the
request.
4. Minor Plat – Minor change proposed to require City Council approval when a plat
waiver is requested. Currently allows the Community Development Director to have
final approval authority of the plat. If the plat application includes a request for a
waiver or modification of a platting regulation and/or is denied by the Community
Development Director for any reason, then the Planning and Zoning Commission and
City Council have final approval authority for the plat. The Planning and Zoning
City of Colleyville Page 4
City Council Agenda Briefing 8b
Commission will make a recommendation to the City Council. Chapter 212.0065 of the
Texas Local Government Code allows cities to delegate approval of a Minor Plat to City
staff.
5. Replat - Changed to allow the City Council to have final approval authority of the
plat. Currently the Planning and Zoning Commission has the final approval authority
for a Replat. If the plat application includes a request for a waiver or modification of a
platting regulation, then the City Council must also approve the request.
6. Amending Plat - Minor change proposed to require City Council approval when a
plat waiver is requested. Currently allows the Community Development Director to
have final approval authority of the plat. If the plat application includes a request for a
waiver or modification of a platting regulation and/or is denied by the Community
Development Director for any reason, then the Planning and Zoning Commission and
City Council have final approval authority for the plat. The Planning and Zoning
Commission will make a recommendation to the City Council. Chapter 212.0065 of the
Texas Local Government Code allows cities to delegate approval of an Amending Plat
to City staff.
Other changes to the chapter include minor changes related to grammar, reference
amendments, and structure.
Planning and Zoning Commission Recommendation: The Planning and Zoning
Commission recommended approval of this item at the December 12, 2016 meeting by
a vote of 6-0.
Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the amendment. The
proposed amendment is consistent with the authorized procedure allowed in the local
government code and with surrounding communities. The amendment would revert
back to the previous plat approval process prior to 2014.
Financial Impact
There is no financial impact to the City.

be signed by the Administrative Official and kept for public record. Said approved Preliminary Plat shall
reflect any and all revisions to the original submitted Preliminary Plat as was directed by the Planning and
Zoning Commission and/or City Council which were made a condition of approval. Approval of the
Preliminary Plat shall not constitute final acceptance or approval of the subdivision nor shall the approval
of the Preliminary Plat confer any vesting rights in the arrangement of lots, streets and other features on
the Final Plat. Approval of the Preliminary Plat shall constitute authority to proceed with the Final Plat
process as described in this Chapter.
E. Expiration of Approval – Approval of a Preliminary Plat shall expire after twelve (12) months from the date
of approval, unless a Final Plat is submitted for all or part of the area that has received Preliminary Plat
approval. The approving body may approve a time extension upon written request from the developer or
may waive the twelve month termination period when the Final Plat is determined to be consistent with the
approved Preliminary Plat and no additional standards have been adopted by the City.
