12 January 1971 .
SUBJECT: Annual Report
TO : Mayor and Council Members
The commission has functioned during 1970 as direoted by
the council and state laws. The commission operated under ord-
inance 1510 until 13 May 1970. At that date ordinance # 0-70-2
was passed, superceding ordinance #510 and the commission was
reorganized to more closely conform to state laws and the recom-
mendation of the city planners.
The resignation of Mr. Ed Knight was accepted and the council
appointed Mr. Joe Deupree, at the April 14 meeting, to fill the
unexpired term. The number of commission members was increased
from five to seven by ordinance # 0-70-2 and council appointed
Mr. Ed Meador and Mr. L.D. Long to fill these positions. As of
31 October 1970, the commission consisted of seven positions. The
position numbers and expiration dates are listed in table I.

The planning and zoning commission has been very active
during 1970. W. had eleven regular scheduled meetings and twelve
special called meetings. Attendance at these meetings by member
is listed in table II attached. In regular meetings, nine zoning
cases were heard and five sub-division plats were reviewed and
three were approved. Two plats are presently under study. All
zoning cases were submitted to council with recommendationa.
The master plan for Colleyville was a major item of business
for the ~e.nn1ng' oommission during the year. In oonjunotion with
the planning oonsultant, Mr. Mike Mahoney, and the planners,
Wisenbaker, Fix and Associates, the major portion of the master
plan was oompleted.
Many ordinanoes have been worked out by the commission and
submitted to the council. These include # 0-70-2, creation of a
planning and zoning oommission; * 0-70-19, electrical code;
# 0-70-15, zoning ordinance; H 0-70-14, sub-division control
ordinance; " 0-70-7, fire safety c~d.; all of which have been
adopted by the council~ In addition the commission is working on
codes for plumbing, building, street construction and trailer
parks. A" plan for naming and numbering all streets is in work$
New forms have been provided by the commission and are in use
for certificate of occupancy, request for building permits,
electrical inspeotion perm1ts and building perm1ts.

with adjacent oities regarding zoning and sub-division control.

Several areas are still pending action. A request to council by
the commission to contact the Oorp. of Engineers for flood plane
surveys along Big Bear and Little Bear creeks has resulted 1n action
by the Corps. These studies are now underway and surveys are being
made at no eost to the city.
A zoning board of adjustment has been appointed by the council
to conf'orm to ordinance # 0-70-15. We have been working with Mr.
Skip Gibson to get his board functioning.
We feel that the planning and zoning commission has accomp-
lished the job we were appointed to do. It is our desire to
continue in 1971 to serve as directed by the council, to submit
proposals to council as the need arises, to complete and fully
implement the master plan, and to work toward updating or creating
ordinances necessary to provide the orderly and proper growth of
the city of Colleyville for the betterment of all concerned.
Respectiv-ely submitted,
