MINUTES OF MEETING
February 22, 2002 - 8:30 am East End Conference Room
PRESENT:
Members: Gail Manion, Chair; Judy Atwood, Deena Dendy, Earline Kennedy, Nancy
Jane Langford, and Dulce Moore.
Staff: Tom Niederauer Sr. Planner; Troy Gray, Engineering.
I. Call to Order:
Chair Gail Manion introduced new member Earline Kennedy.
II. Follow-up reports: (see attached report for more detail)
A. Current Budget: There is approximately $42,400 remaining in the FY 2001-2002
budget.
B. Glade Road: The following items were about various parts of the Glade Road walk:
• Ms. Moore suggested looking at the pedestrian bridge in Bedford along Cheek-
Sparger Road as a solution for crossing the creek on west Glade from Bransford
to Mill Creek. The Task Force suggested reviewing bridges in Grapevine as well
and also requested estimates for the cost of using this on Glade.
• There was concern expressed about the auto driver visibility at the New Glade
to Old Glade corner on the south side. The hill is presently being cut at this
location to put in a new walk around to Bedford Road.
• Nancy Jane Langford thinks it would be better to not buy the Marion Bone
property but stay on the south side of Glade as the walk is extended west from
Bluebonnet. A crossing could then be prepared at the new Riverwalk Dr.
intersection with a traffic signal.
• Judy Atwood expressed concern that the crook in the Glade Rd. walk east of
Cranbrook is too sharp, especially since the walk is only four feet (4') wide at
this location.
C. John McCain alignment status: Troy Gray said that the bids for the realignment of
John McCain to intersect with Colleyville Blvd. maybe out by next month. The driveway
from the house at the corner of Maranatha St. will be located away from John McCain
and the walk along that lot to connect to Timmaron will be built with the re-construction
of the road.
III. Next Meeting Agenda:
• Research and prepare information on pedestrian bridges.
• Review the Glade Road Survey (Bluebonnet Rd. to Bedford Rd.) provided by
