Votes at a glance: Council approves marketing extension for city property, seven‑year waste contract, and three plats
Summary
Council approved a set of resolutions on May 6 including a 180‑day marketing/inspection extension tied to a city property sale agreement, a seven‑year solid‑waste contract renewal, an abandoned right‑of‑way return and accompanying replat, and a minor plat waiver at 1721 Glade Road.
The Colleyville City Council on May 6 approved multiple resolutions under consent and regular agenda items. Below is a concise summary of each formal action taken, the mover/second recorded in the meeting, and the outcome as stated in the minutes.
• Purchase and sale agreement amendment / marketing extension (Venture DFW / Big Sky Realty) Motion: Motion for resolution R‑twenty‑five‑five‑35 to authorize the city manager or designee to execute one or more amendments to the purchase and sale agreements with Big Sky Realty (Venture DFW) for property generally located at 4105–41017 Colleyville Boulevard and to extend the inspection period by 180 days. Mover/Second: Motion by Council Member Graves; second by Deputy Mayor Pro Tem Richardson. Outcome: Passed 7–0. Staff presentation (Assistant City Manager Mark Wood) noted the city purchased roughly 6 acres in 2021 and Venture DFW requested more time to market the property to prospective tenants.
• Solid waste and recycling contract renewal (Community Waste Disposal) Motion: Motion to approve resolution R‑twenty‑five‑five‑36 to authorize a second amendment of the restated contract with Community Waste Disposal for a seven‑year term (rates presented for a 7‑year renewal). Mover/Second: Motion by Councilman Alfonso; second by Councilwoman Gunderson. Outcome: Passed 7–0. Assistant City Manager Adrienne Laudry summarized service levels (twice‑weekly garbage pickup, once‑weekly recycling collection) and said the proposed seven‑year rates were lower than some neighboring recent RFP outcomes.
• Abandonment of 25‑foot right of way (John McCain Road area) Motion: Motion to approve resolution R‑twenty‑five‑five‑37 to abandon a 25‑foot right of way adjacent to Lot 1, Block 1 of the Nesdale/Nisdel addition (to be incorporated into Lot 4R as shown on the companion plat); the council approved abandonment without applying a fee. Mover/Second: Motion by Mayor Pro Tem Elder; second by Deputy Mayor Pro Tem Richardson. Outcome: Passed 7–0. Staff noted the right of way was dedicated historically but never improved; the city retained an easement for utilities.
• Replat to incorporate abandoned right of way (Lot 4R, Nesdale/Nisdel addition) Motion: Motion to approve resolution R‑twenty‑five‑five‑38 approving the replat for Lot 4R, Block 1, Nesdale/Nisdel addition (approx. 4.92 acres) incorporating the abandoned right of way. Mover/Second: Motion by Mayor Pro Tem Elder; second by Councilman Ryan. Outcome: Passed (recorded as approved; one councilmember noted an abstention earlier in the discussion but the formal vote as recorded was approved); staff and Planning & Zoning recommended approval.
• Minor plat with waiver for lot width (Folsom addition) Motion: Motion to approve resolution R‑twenty‑five‑five‑39 approving a minor plat with a waiver for lot width for Lot 1, Block 1, Folsom addition (1721 Glade Road). Planning & Zoning recommended approval 7–0. Mover/Second: Motion by Councilman Graves; second by Councilman Alfonso. Outcome: Passed 7–0.
Procedural notes: Most items above were presented with staff reports and public hearings where required; no votes were taken on first‑reading ordinances (zoning and SUP items) at this meeting. The council recorded unanimous approvals for the listed resolutions. Where the record showed a staff error (the Oakcrest fence permit), council discussed remedies and precedent but took the abandonment and plat approvals above as noted.
The council’s next regular meeting is scheduled for May 13, when first‑reading zoning and SUP items (including the e‑bike ordinance and several special use permits) will be returned for possible final action.
