Key actions included approval of a consent agenda, support for a municipal setting designation application, award of a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) pavement contract, approval of a small event permit at the Northeast Mall and approval of several appointments to boards and commissions.

Consent agenda: Council approved the consent agenda, which included approval of minutes for the June 10, 2025 meeting; authorization for the city manager to enter into a sign replacement agreement for a property at 200 Grapevine Highway and a contract addendum for Brown Trail reconstruction improvements with Aguiar and Fields LPA; and authorization for joint paving, seal and crack-sealing services through a cooperative purchasing agreement, among other listed items. A council member moved approval and a second was recorded; the motion carried.

Municipal setting designation (Resolution 18-87): The council approved Resolution 18-87 supporting a municipal setting designation application to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality for properties described in staff materials (referenced in the meeting as 20306 and 316 Grapevine Highway). Public works staff described the designation as a TCEQ process to identify groundwater protections for areas with known contamination concerns; staff reported no objection to the application and council voted to support it.

CDBG pavement project (Ponderosa Drive): Council awarded the CDBG-funded Ponderosa Drive pavement project to JECS Construction Company in the amount of $455,394 with a 9.8% contingency of $44,606, for a total project authorization of $500,000. The county grant covers $170,000 of the project; the city is responsible for costs exceeding the county grant amount, the motion recorded.

Northeast Mall event permit: Council approved a small-event permit for Graco Incorporated to host a promotional event in the Dillard\u0000s parking area at the Northeast Mall in late July; staff characterized the request as falling under the previously approved small-event agreement.

Appointments: Council appointed Josh Ingram to the Community Services Development Corporation, Oliver Blankenship to the Public Safety and Infrastructure Committee and Christopher Strong to the Codes, Appeals and Advisory Committee; council also reappointed applicants who requested reappointment to their respective boards and commissions.

Each item was moved, seconded and adopted as recorded in the meeting minutes.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Hurst - City Council - Jun 24, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","The council approved the consent agenda, a municipal setting designation application, a CDBG pavement contract award, a small event permit for the Northeast Mall and several board appointments during the June meeting.","taxTitle","Hurst City, Tarrant County, Texas","taxId",54108,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6657865,"Hurst council orders repair/removal or demolition of 1016 Mountain Terrace; authorizes filing of liens and cost recovery",512,2352000,2864000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5065455-5500d1a599f8728df23ef350fb265955&start=2352&end=2864","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5065455-5500d1a599f8728df23ef350fb265955/thumbnail_2352000.jpg","/articles/6657865/Hurst-City/Tarrant-County/Texas/Hurst-council-orders-repairremoval-or-demolition-of-1016-Mountain-Terrace-authorizes-filing-of-liens-and-cost-recovery","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6657865-6b9a90db179bbdb1f14ef64f07162a49/orig.mp4?Expires=1771133845&Signature=E68X0cOxkgE1lwMBlPrKkynwZCwEQMnjRmL4G5ZTxAbvslMfwxUxM~i~tP3L1VF9kJSH7yes4e9YAyYzSnKALWh6Bt8rpVV4E~z9f-jVN0vEPSksbyV6JM7MWJogJF9qW9-8KhsofBK3r~d1yWV~pvQw-O8CqM~YqfXKAG~ERvBXo7Vl0FxDtNxCDooYLSexUs58BzOynf7Te7HZkASozDFL7qQcBchf7lGj1h2RCfLnYPAWMQ9N1To7a8UR6IzILzr-h-P1fPnEyJsVZOHtXtoOLZ7BiMIFM7IKlHFQObnBf1P3szYK6ZaI7eQ2iVAhD5Ljp~2buRboc7Lyfc8I7Q__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Hurst City Council voted to order the repair, removal or demolition of all improvements at 1016 Mountain Terrace after staff described ongoing maintenance issues and neighbors described public-health and nuisance concerns.

City building official Tanya Wilson told the council that staff had fielded inquiries from potential buyers, accommodated site visits and had no permit activity following the last meeting. Neighbors who live adjacent to the property described a standing pool that breeds mosquitoes, rodents observed over the winter and concerns about boards and transient occupants. A resident who lives directly behind the property also testified to earlier code complaints.

Councilmember (mover) introduced a motion to order repair, removal, or demolition of the improvements at the address. The city attorney suggested an amendment to adopt the staff findings that the building is substandard and authorize the city to proceed with demolition and to recover demolition costs from the owner or by placement of a lien on the property; the council adopted that motion and authorized the city manager to take all necessary action. The motion carried with all councilmembers saying \"aye.\" No opposition was recorded.

Staff will file the order with the Tarrant County real property records as directed; the city attorney noted that any subsequent owner would inherit the recorded notice. Council and staff did not announce a demolition timeline; city staff will proceed with administrative steps to effect the order and cost recovery as permitted by local code and state law.","After public comment about blight and nuisance conditions, the council adopted findings that 1016 Mountain Terrace is substandard and authorized the city to proceed with demolition or repairs and to recover costs by lien or from the owner.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6657869,"Council continues public hearing on 916 Zelda Drive code case to July 8; owner given two weeks to provide contractor documentation",941,1310000,2251000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5065455-5500d1a599f8728df23ef350fb265955&start=1310&end=2251","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5065455-5500d1a599f8728df23ef350fb265955/thumbnail_1310000.jpg","/articles/6657869/Hurst-City/Tarrant-County/Texas/Council-continues-public-hearing-on-916-Zelda-Drive-code-case-to-July-8-owner-given-two-weeks-to-provide-contractor-documentation","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6657869-475a965d45d50e8ff790dc3a4929a225/orig.mp4?Expires=1771133845&Signature=TMpbuUFzKVfMRosO05Km6vuj1NaAiyPjJ1acgrmszmL7c6U7CAo1Dwhusd4QjSvigLkdVgtHa5phGjEdftpEol8L2yDc1HtnWXL~2vW92HYJ0~1ZA59cIZk~NkM2vqcMiVhdWy8EHbq2DIUIxsXc7UMffFm~nNUb14fmRNloNFmbza9jRjkwL8qrnBhibDBGd9IRgmC4-eWXuQjuopLrFYoGDf3-LDaBv9NK73q8axG4cZ673SC7c~nMSNinnCM~DbmT~TfPVSNEhLY-oqEOa3pkjv0LS~q9f9JcGwG6Q1m~h8aYGH-jApRQb1Z5kDh65qdN-aEku8R3ZkYDD2ITNA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Hurst City Council continued a public hearing and associated legal action regarding alleged substandard improvements at 916 Zelda Drive and set the matter for the council\u0000s July 8 meeting, council members said.

City building official Tanya Wilson told the council staff had received incomplete plans and a remodel permit from property owner Monica Chavez but had not received contractor registration or contractor identification information required for permit issuance. Chavez addressed the council, said she had engaged engineers and contractors, and apologized for misunderstandings about permit status and timing.

Councilmembers discussed concerns that unpermitted work had exposed areas where inspections for framing, plumbing and electrical were required. Several council members urged the owner to maintain direct, ongoing communication with building officials so staff could confirm progress. Councilmember Matthew (identified in the record by first name only) moved to continue the case and associated public hearing to the council\u0000s July 8 meeting; a second was recorded. The motion carried; one councilmember voiced opposition.

Council members and staff warned that if required documentation and satisfactory progress were not provided, the council would consider demolition at a future meeting and would file the necessary orders and liens as allowed. Tanya Wilson and other staff said they had tried an accommodating approach and would continue to work with the owner; the council asked Ms. Chavez to keep timely communications with staff to resolve outstanding permit and contractor registration requirements.","A public hearing on alleged substandard conditions at 916 Zelda Drive was continued to the council\u0000s next meeting, with the council directing the property owner to supply contractor registration and communicate with staff; the motion carried with one dissenting vote.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6657874,"Hurst honors Fresca—s Lemonade Stand, highlights Lemonade Day youth entrepreneurship",273,839000,1112000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5065455-5500d1a599f8728df23ef350fb265955&start=839&end=1112","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5065455-5500d1a599f8728df23ef350fb265955/thumbnail_839000.jpg","/articles/6657874/Hurst-City/Tarrant-County/Texas/Hurst-honors-Frescas-Lemonade-Stand-highlights-Lemonade-Day-youth-entrepreneurship","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6657874-357e11e55473ac75cc63fea7ab529459/orig.mp4?Expires=1771133845&Signature=PTL-Y8wRJPqYTXJtV9Ub4C0ZX1tx8VmA~~dHmeFQNUm7DOee-Hj-zzaZ0fUJnZ3ljM4aGFcSy6y0WAckzwIwPZgTrAGn29wLwRpCFmqDXT2SNU-Zku-3IRYpdYEm8AKpVw4uq4ECN9szeilf1ixKSWboipk77JEzGmoduzJ49iM0tJkfWLH8lOpZ32E6z6z7q2ymC3mpjCUwopm5d3XAKxVlvgBn1fDEyJTEnlZ4unTcMchmoi1jd09AM8aHn8gqlchXs-im3hI2xb8GiPC0CubFMjtcZecr~J7kjIviJ5kKthrP3WXzIoEXFTx4BQV04b2yLdGLg5svBJoLNbNkZw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","City officials on Tuesday recognized participants in Lemonade Day and presented a certificate to the Martinez family\u0000s Fresca\u0000s Lemonade Stand for donating part of its proceeds to the nonprofit 6 Stones.

A city representative said City First participated in the event and described Lemonade Day as a youth entrepreneurship and economic-development opportunity that teaches children to plan, work and manage money. The presentation highlighted that multiple local businesses served as sponsor locations for children without storefronts.

Councilmember Tracey Colbert read a certificate naming Fresca\u0000s Lemonade Stand the city\u0000s \"2025 best lemonade stand award\" and noted the stand\u0000s contribution to 6 Stones. Several children who had participated described what they learned at the lemonade stands: one said her favorite item to sell was lemon cookies; another said participating taught saving and counting money.

City staff and council thanked the Martinez family for their participation and for donating part of their proceeds to local school-supply programs through 6 Stones.

The proclamation was read by Mayor Henry Wilson, who said, \"I, Henry Wilson, Mayor of the City Of Hearst, Texas, and on behalf of the City Council and Citizens, hereby proclaim July as Parks and Recreation Month.\" The council did not take a separate recorded vote on the proclamation; it was presented and acknowledged as part of the evening\u0000s agenda.

Why it matters: Parks and recreation programming was presented to council as a public-health, economic and community-benefit priority, with staff saying programs support physical activity, social connection and local economic activity.

Hearst Parks and Recreation Director Amy Oden outlined the department\u0000s offerings and events for the month. She cited the National Recreation and Park Association theme for the year, \"build together, play together,\" and said the department prepared a full schedule of family and fitness events. Noted items in the presentation included a boat-float event to kick off July, STEM-focused crafts, rock painting, expanded fitness offerings and a monthlong roster of activities at Chisholm Aquatic Center. Oden described aquatics programming as central to drowning prevention, fitness and community connection.

Staff also previewed the Stars and Stripes celebration as the month\u0000s signature event: gates at Hearst Community Park will open at 6:00 p.m.; shuttles will run from the mall beginning at 5:30 p.m.; Grady Spencer and The Work are scheduled to start at about 6:30 p.m., a second act (Q the band) is scheduled for 8:00 p.m., and a fireworks show is planned to cap the evening around 9:30 p.m. The event will include roughly 14 food vendors and a children\u0000s activity zone, city staff said.

In remarks, Mayor Pro Tem John McKenzie and council members singled out parks staff for praise and thanked the department for maintenance of parkland and program delivery. The council and staff encouraged residents to participate in events and new programming offered through the month.","City leaders proclaimed July as Parks and Recreation Month and Hearst Parks & Recreation staff described a monthlong schedule of programs and the Stars and Stripes celebration, including bands, fireworks, and family activities.","actionData","errors"]
