Presentation of calendar events and updates

Mayor Newton and the City Council made the following announcements:
Sales Tax Receipts Up, Again: The Texas Comptroller’s Office has posted the
most recent sales tax allocation information, which reflects purchases made in
February. This is the fifth month of sales tax reported for Fiscal Year 2019. The
1% General Fund and ½% Colleyville Economic Development Corporation (CEDC)
sales tax are up +4.56% compared to the same month last year. The ½%
Colleyville Crime Control & Prevention District is up +5.58% compared to the
same month last year. This is better than all of our neighboring cities except
Grapevine.
GCISD PTA Receipt Race is underway (ends April 30) so hopefully sales will
continue to increase! The PTA parents, teachers and students are making a
difference. This is such as great partnership. We will be recognizing the winning
PTAs at our May 7 Council meeting. Once that wraps up, we will be launching our
next initiative, our Summer S.I.G.N. program. That stands for Sign Improvements
to Get you Noticed. This new program will focus on providing businesses in
Colleyville with 1:1 matching grant money, up to $5,000 for new signage or sign
enhancements.

City Plaza Update: Last week, staff and our team from Freese & Nichols held a
non-mandatory Pre-Bid meeting for all contractors interested in bidding on the
Plaza project. We had great attendance with 12 different general contractors
represented. Bids for the Plaza are scheduled to be opened on April 23 and
presented to Council May 7. We have included liquidated damages in the contract
to emphasize the importance of project completion by early/mid November.
Arbor Day & Kids Fishing Day: Stop by the Colleyville Nature Center on
Saturday, April 27 from 10 am-noon to celebrate Arbor Day with the Parks &
Recreation Department. We will have Shoal Creek Vitex, Lagerstroemia Centennial
Spirit, and Sawtooth Oaks available, two per family for the first 250 people. We
will also have Arbor Day shirts, while supplies last. Bring the kids out to fish too!
The pond will be freshly stocked with catfish. Poles and bait will be available by the
TX Junior Anglers. Trophies will be awarded, by age group, for the largest fish
caught. There will also be door prize giveaways throughout the event for the
children fishing (tool boxes, fishing poles, camping gear, etc.).
Colleyville Student Organizes Clean-up at Nature Center: Amelia Phoenix, a
fourth-grade student at Glenhope, has organized a team of 30+ fellow students to
volunteer for a ‘clean up’ event at the Colleyville Nature Center. This event is
taking place as part of a field trip outing for students taking part in the ASPIRE
program. The event was to take place from noon to 2 PM at the Colleyville Nature
Center on April 17. But due to expected bad weather it has been rescheduled to
May 1st. If you have a moment, please stop by as a show of support for Amelia
and her desire to serve our community
Garden Club Tree Donation: A special thank you to Dee Ann Rhodes and the
Colleyville Garden Club for their interest in donating an Arizona Cypress to the
City, for planting specifically at the Colleyville Center in honor of Arbor Day. A
short dedication event will take place on April 24 at 11:30 AM outside the
Colleyville Center. This is in addition to the $10K donation to the Center for a
fountain and landscaping for the Bluebonnet Garden Courtyard. Thank you
Colleyville Garden Club!
Grapevine Colleyville Education Foundation Golf Tournament: Last week
members of our Colleyville leadership team volunteered to work a few hours at the
2019 Classic Golf Tournament hosted by the Grapevine Colleyville Education
Foundation. This wonderful event benefits the students and teachers at GCISD.
The City is fortunate to have an exceptional school district and foundation and we
thank those who work so hard to ensure our children receive an exceptional
education.
Concerts in The Village: Please come have fun with family, friends, and free
music Friday, April 26 at 7pm in front of City Hall! The April 26 concert will feature
The Trinity River Ramblers playing authentic American music with an edge and

energy that will make you notice! They'll be covering a wide range of favorites
including Pat Green, Robert Earl Keen, Van Morrison, Jimmy Buffet, and The
Rolling Stones. Attendees are encouraged to bring blankets or chairs to sit on the
lawn. The concert is family-friendly and free; no ticket or advance registration is
required.
Drug Take Back: The Colleyville Police Department and the Drug Enforcement
Administration (DEA) will give the public the opportunity to prevent pill abuse and
theft by ridding their homes of potentially dangerous expired, unused, and
unwanted prescription drugs. Community members can bring their pills for
disposal from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, April 27, to the Senior Center. (The
DEA cannot accept liquids or needles or sharps, only pills or patches.) The service
is free and anonymous, no questions asked. Colleyville Police are offering a drive-
through service for easier drug disposal.
CWC Fashion Show: The Colleyville Women’s Club had a very successful fashion
show Friday. The city was well represented. All council members were there
volunteering and participating as well as their spouses (except Linda). All of the
Colleyville leadership team was there – City Manager Jerry Ducay (and 3 family
members), Assistant City Managers Adrienne Lothery and Mark Wood, Police Chief
Michael Miller, and Public Works Director Ray Silva Reyes – and all of our friends
from the Colleyville Chamber.
Meeting with Colleyville Baseball Association: Councilmember Callie Rigney,
Mayor Newton, City Manager Jerry Ducay, Assistant City Manager Adrienne
Lothery, Park Director Lisa Escobedo, and Park Supervisor Chris Haworth, met
with the Colleyville Baseball Association (CBA) leadership: President Jon Holzaphel,
Vice President Troy Hansen, Commissioner Michael Wang, Treasurer Allison Love
and Coach Jay Finnigan. We asked for the meeting since the City is starting budget
planning process and we wanted to insure the City is in alignment with the short
term and long term plans of the CBA. We discussed several items of importance:
foul ball safety, new scoreboards, and field maintenance. The CBA will send their
planning list and prioritizations to the City for assessment and will meet again to
discuss how to incorporate as many of those items as possible. The City and the
CBA did agree to split the cost of new scoreboards with the City paying for the
installation. This will be done this summer. The CBA did present their
organizational strategic pillars: Safety, Respect and Branding. These are
outstanding concepts to teach young people involved in the CBA.
