Euless council approves consent items, industrial site plan and bond redemption resolution

The City Council of Euless approved several routine and financial items at its May 27 meeting, including a consent agenda, a site plan for an industrial building in the International Regional Industrial Complex and a resolution authorizing the early redemption of certain city obligations.

Consent agenda: Assistant City Manager Steve Viera presented the consent agenda which included authorizing the purchase of a tandem-axle pavement crack-sealing machine from Kravco, Inc. through the Sourcewell cooperative contract; authorizing the city manager to execute an interlocal agreement with member cities of the Northeast Fire Department Association (allowing DFW Airport to participate in operations and training); and approving the council minutes from the May 27, 2025 regular meeting. Councilmember Tompkins moved approval; Councilmember Price seconded. The agenda passed unanimously.

Industrial site plan: The council approved site plan number 205‑3 for a 24,003‑square‑foot industrial building in the International Regional Industrial Complex (Block D, Lot C) on the southeast corner of Regal Parkway and Westpark. Staff said the one‑story building would have four suites (one occupying roughly three‑quarters of the floorplate), provide 48 parking spaces where 47 were required, include an eight‑foot dumpster enclosure and landscaping with 24 canopy trees. The development services group certified the application on April 29 and the planning and zoning commission recommended approval 5‑0. Councilmember Price moved approval; Councilmember Padel seconded and the item passed.

Bond redemption resolution: Staff finance presented Resolution No. 25‑1676 authorizing the redemption of certain outstanding obligations (series 2011, 2014 and 2015 certificates of obligation) that funded park and infrastructure improvements in a defined development zone. Staff said debt service had been funded through a combination of public improvement district assessments and tax increment reinvestment zone revenues tied to that zone and that one‑time funds make early payoff possible. Preliminary analysis provided an estimated net present value savings of approximately $1,015,214. Councilmember Bynum moved approval; Councilmember Tompkins seconded and the council approved the resolution.

Procedure and public comment: The meeting included a public comment period governed by the city attorney’s reminder that the Texas Open Meetings Act limits council responses to public comments. One public comment during the meeting addressed regional appraisal and school funding matters and was received for the record.

Votes: All motions on the consent agenda and the individual items above carried on council votes as recorded in the meeting transcript. Several items presented to the council were certified by development services and recommended by planning and zoning prior to council consideration.
