Haslet HCEDC Type B board approves park appointments, new agenda procedure and $500,000 allocation for Nance Field parking lot
Summary
At its Feb. 4 meeting the Haslet Community and Economic Development Corporation (HCEDC) Type B board unanimously approved appointments to a playground committee, enacted an agenda-building procedure, repealed a prior parking-lot resolution and adopted a new resolution budgeting up to $500,000 toward surfacing the Nance Field parking lot; the board also moved meeting dates and tabled a storefront grant revision for further review.
The Haslet Community and Economic Development Corporation (HCEDC) Type B board met Feb. 4 and voted unanimously on a slate of procedural and project actions, including appointments to a playground committee and a new funding allocation for the parking lot at Nance Field.
The board appointed Leah Presta (listed in the agenda packet), Laura Slaughterhoff and Kitty Wirtz to a park playground committee established by the Haslet Parks and Recreation Board. The motion to appoint the three members passed unanimously.
The board also enacted an agenda-building procedure for the HCEDC Type B board, adopting the clean copy reviewed at the meeting. Members said the procedure will standardize how items are placed on future agendas.
On project funding, the board repealed a 2025 resolution that had previously authorized project funding for the parking area and replaced it with a 2026 resolution that approves installation of a paved parking lot at Nance Field. Board members discussed whether to specify material (concrete vs. asphalt) and ultimately removed a material specification so the resolution remains generic. The board voted to budget up to $500,000 as its contribution toward the surfacing project to cover either asphalt or concrete, depending on the final selection.
Board members also voted to change the regular meeting day to the third Wednesday of each month, beginning in April (the March meeting date will be determined to avoid a spring-break conflict), and agreed to reconfirm room availability with city staff.
The board unanimously tabled a proposed revision to the Storefront Improvement Grant program for more review and directed members to research comparable programs in other cities (Saginaw, Keller, Roanoke, Southlake) before returning the item to a future meeting. The board noted a public hearing will be held Feb. 25 to satisfy a 60-day notice requirement for some funding items.
The meeting adjourned at 8:33 p.m.
