5. ORDINANCE(S): FIRST READING AND PUBLIC HEARING
5a Ordinance O-23-2250
Consideration of a Special Use Permit for a Cemetery use on Lot 1A1,
Block 1, of the Bob Moore Sports Center Addition, located at 6113
Colleyville Boulevard, Case ZC23-013
Mayor Lindamood read the caption of Ordinance O-23-2250.
Community Development Director Ben Bryner presented the Bluebonnet Hills
Cemetery request for a Special Use Permit (SUP) for cemeteries or mausoleums to
allow for Bluebonnet Hills Cemetery to phase in an expansion. The plan would
provide for the front 9.11 acres to develop first with mausoleums, and the back 10
acres to develop in approximately seven years as additional burial space.
Julia Mitchell, representing the applicant and the owners of the property located at
6113 Colleyville, known as Bob Moore’s Sports Center, Bobby Moore, and Lisa
Miller, gave a presentation on the vision for the use of the land and expansion by
Bluebonnet Hills Cemetery.
There was discussion regarding the acreage size of the SUP, economic
development along the Colleyville Boulevard corridor, and location of the planned
mausoleums.
Cary Grossi, DFW Market Director, and Sam Scott, Location Manager, representing
Bluebonnet Hills, were present to answer questions of the City Council regarding
the planned future use of the land, maintenance, and Bluebonnet’s history in
Colleyville.
As discussion ensued, Mayor Lindamood called on Planning and Zoning (P&Z)
Commissioner David Groves, who chaired the August 14, 2023, P&Z meeting, to
explain the Commission’s recommendation of approval of the request on the rear
10 acres currently owned by the cemetery with the expectation the frontage
portion on Colleyville Boulevard remain available for retail use. Mr. Groves stated
when P&Z reviews a case, they are looking at the goals of the land use. In this
case, the zoning is commercial and a cemetery is allowed with an SUP, however,
collectively, P&Z felt the front portion has potential to generate sales tax for the
City, as cemeteries do not pay property taxes. It was not P&Z’s intent to say they
(Bluebonnet) could not use the entire nine acres, rather there was discussion for
the front portion to have something to generate sales tax for the City. We felt as
Bluebonnet already owned the back ten acres, and approval of the SUP for that,
gives them the right to use the land they currently own, we had no details on the
purchase of the other acreage, but felt this would help to reach a compromise to
providing for sales tax generation toward the front and work with Bluebonnet to
come back at a later time to revisit some or all of the nine acres.
City Council Minutes September 6, 2023

Lisa Miller, 2505 Highland Park Court, provided a history of the Sports Center, land

Mayor Lindamood read the caption of Ordinance O-23-2251.
Community Development Director Ben Bryner presented this SUP for a non-

Mayor Lindamood read the caption of Ordinance O-23-2252.
Community Development Director Ben Bryner presented this request for a six foot
wrought iron fence to encroach into the street side yard setback.
There was discussion regarding when opposition would create a super-majority
vote requirement and Council’s desire to see brick columns added to the plan for
aesthetics, and the effect of columns on the visibility triangle.
Skye Thibodeaux, representing the applicant, stated the applicant has visited with
the neighbors and no one was against the fence, and the applicant is in favor of
the brick columns also. Mr. Thibodeaux also noted the location of the City’s
easement.

Community Development Director Ben Bryner presented the request for an iron
fence six-feet in height with two-foot by two-foot stone columns and a motorized
iron gate to extend beyond the front façade of the house along the property line.
Mayor Lindamood stated he felt it would set the wrong precedent to allow this
fence and it should meet the setback requirements.
Jojy Koshy, representing the applicant, noted the City allows for a 30 inch fence
and the applicant is asking to install a 48 or 60 inch to enhance the aesthetics of
the property. If the higher fence is approved, the applicant will add the stone
columns.

was significant net growth led by residential reappraisals, tempered by exemptions
which is why the proposed tax rate is above the no-new-revenue rate but below

operating rate, while keeping the debt rate the same, with an average residential
tax bill calculation increase of $181.55 annually or $15.12 month. The new growth
nets over $180,000, and the rate adjustment nets $1.13 million.

but below the current rate by $.004627. He noted this rate will increase the
maintenance and operating rate, while keeping the debt rate the same. Director
Lester reviewed the FY24 needs and programs.
Mayor Lindamood stated he, and the City Council, have always said they will
always attempt the no-new-revenue tax rate, but if additional funds are required

Mayor Lindamood read the caption of Ordinance O-23-2261.
Assistant City Manager Adrienne Lothery presented this item noting in March
2023, Atmos filed a rate request for consideration by the Steering Committee of
Cities Served by Atmos (ACSC), which Colleyville is a member. Atmos claimed its
cost-of-service in a test year ending December 31, 2022, entitled it to additional
system-wide revenues of $165.9 million. ACSC’s consultants and Atmos negotiated
a settlement which would allow Atmos an increase of $142 million, a reduction of
$23.9 million compared to their original request. Manager Lothery noted the
recommendation is to approve the negotiated settlement agreement as denial
would result in Atmos appealing the decision to the Railroad Commission, which
has historically ruled in favor of Atmos.
