The motion was approved by the following vote:
Ayes: 6 – Mayor Lindamood, Mayor Pro Tem Wheat, and Councilmembers Elder,

Absent: 1 – Councilmember Rigney.
Mayor Lindamood returned to preside over the next three resolutions.
Mayor Lindamood stated Mayor Pro Tem Wheat, Councilmember Dodson, City Manager
Jerry Ducay, Assistant City Manager Mark Wood, and himself traveled to Austin the week
prior to meet with Senator Tan Parker and Representative Giovanni Capriglione
regarding three specific bills, which would be detrimental to Colleyville.
Mayor Lindamood said the bills are an affront to local control, taking authority away
from councilmembers to govern the very cities they were elected to serve.
SB1787 and HB3921 are identical and impose high-density standards for any city within
a county with a population of 300,000 or more. Under these bills, a city cannot impose
or enforce an ordinance that would require lot size greater than 1,400 square feet and
anything less than 31.1 lots per acre. To put that into perspective, under these bills a
15-acre plot of land could have 467 houses. This flies in the face of what is unique about
Colleyville, not to mention all the other problems this would create for our infrastructure
that was not built to handle such density.
He continued saying HB2665 would essentially prohibit a city from any type of regulation
of short-term rentals. Under this bill, Colleyville would have no ability to regulate
duration of stay, number of occupants, or prohibit shorter-term rentals all together.
Mayor Lindamood stated citizens must be engaged and write their representatives
regarding these bills. He stated he will read each of the resolutions and answer any
questions.
