I. Call to Order
II. Report and request from Cranbrook neighborhood.
Representatives from Cranbrook neighborhood were present to update the Task
Force and request more support for their project. Marilyn Knight stated that after
the last meeting she sent a letter to Lloyd Wood confirming that the subdivision
escrow funds could be used for sidewalks. The neighborhood mentioned that, last
year, the City Council agreed to put the project on "the/a list" but that they would not
be a priority (it is assumed that the reference was to a list of overall improvements
and drainage and not to the SWTF priority list). After some discussion the Task
Force assured the neighborhood that they would support the project by listing it as
an unfunded sidewalk priority for this year.
For the record, Manion noted that the funds must come from the
neighborhood as the project would not qualify as a SWTF priority, and that
the project should extend from the far west to the far east boundaries of the
Cranbrook neighborhood along Glade Road.
III. Acceptance of minutes.
The corrected minutes of the 1/31/96, 2/21/96 and 3/6/96 meetings were accepted.
Also the progress of Niederauer and Manion on the construction of a
comprehensive map and list was reported.
IV. Update on projects discussed at last meeting.
A. West Glade project -Rick Staples stated that we need to finish our priority
point scoring for projects to emphasize that projects like West Glade is our
top priority.
B. Report on East Glade -The Task Force instructed staff to prepare a memo to the
City Engineer requesting that the project, including the culvert, be built with funds
from the Heritage Roadway project along all properties except the Harrington piece
and that the City will come back later to complete that portion of the walk.
C. Connection from Ashmore to Pool Road -Niederauer produced a copy of the
plan for the area from the developer (David Bagwell) that indicates his future plans
for connecting to Pool Road.

(VI. Continued)
D. Shadowwood. -Niederauer researched this issue and reported that although the
zoning ordinance for Shadow Wood is silent on sidewalk (and other) exemptions
the adopted site plan is the guiding document, therefore since the plan did not show
walks they have not been required. This and other issues were resolved by City
Council some time ago.
E. Walks for the new high school -Manion reiterated that we will need sidewalk
access from the school to the midblock point along SH 121, and that at least a
temporary walk will be needed for next year along the north side of Glade between
Heritage Road and the Albertsons site.
F. Report on Grapevine /Glade connection under SH 121. The Task Force
instructed staff to get the City of Euless involved in making improvements to
connect with the City of Colleyville and Grapevine.
G. Member report - Walton reported that all the walks at Kimsey Park have been
completed.
V. Adjourn:
* The Task Force agreed to meet next on April 17th at 6:00 pm to complete the final
recommendations.
* Manion concluded the meeting at 8:00 pm.
