TexRail Gate Malfunction Update: Staff has been in direct contact with
TexRail/Trininty Metro staff regarding the recent gate malfunctions in and around
our community. It is important to note the gate malfunctions involve the "exit
gates" related to the quiet zone implementation. The gates directing approaching
traffic to stop have been operating properly. While this is an important distinction,
it does little to allay the fears and concerns of our community. Trinity Metro staff is
looking into possible programming changes to prevent these incidents in the future
and will keep the City and the public apprised. The City will continue the use of
message boards and social media to encourage our residents to exercise caution
at the rail crossings.

the completion of the Library Spatial Reconfiguration Project and celebrate the
Library's 15 years of service to the community.
Temporary Sign Permit: In an effort to continue assistance to SH26 businesses,
staff is working with individual business owners to allow for temporary signs as
provided for in Section 7-190(k) Temporary Business Signs (LDC - Chapter 7) to
continue beyond the 30 day time limit. Additionally, we are looking to waive the
$50 permit fee. This effort is intended to assist our businesses during the final
stretch of the SH26 construction which is slated for completion later this year.
Fire Department Teams Up with American Red Cross: The Colleyville Fire
Department has teamed up with the American Red Cross to start offering hands-
only CPR instruction and Red Cross certified CPR classes. Red Cross certified fire

starting in May. We are also exploring an opportunity to collaborate with Red Cross
to provide our facility for PTSD, re-connection workshops, and stress management
classes targeting Veterans in need.

Calculate the square of each stem DBH and add them together, then take the square root of that
sum. This will be a theoretical DBH that has an equivalent stem cross section to the combination

root system then they should be logged as separate trees. DBH measurement can be taken as

individual trees growing from common rootstock if there is a visible connection between
the trunks above ground.
Diameter At Breast Height of an Existing Tree (DBH). That measurement of the
size/diameter of a tree as determined by measuring at four and one-half feet above the soil

feet above natural grade. If the trees is on a slope, it should be measured on the uphill side. If
the tree is composed of several co-dominant stems originating from a common pith above
ground, then each diameter should be recorded and then combined in the following way:
Calculate the square of each stem dbh and add them together, then take the square root of that
sum. This will be a theoretical DBH that has an equivalent stem cross section to the combination
