REMARKS TO/FROM OUTGOING MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBER
Jim Carter of 204 Fresh Meadow addressed the Council.
For the Record, Marshall Engelbeck stated
It has been an honor for me to have served the citizens of Trophy Club for the last twelve years and as YOUR
Mayor the past two years. I wish to thank all who have supported me for their dedication and hard work.
I am proud of what Team Trophy Club has accomplished in the past two years. The results achieved in this short
time is a credit to the Town employees and resident volunteers.
It certainly sets a high standard for future Councils and Mayors to be measured by.
Since January 1999, our population has increased 30% necessitating the opening of two new schools. The number
of students attending school in Trophy Club has increased from around 500 to approximately 1,100. Because the
average age of our citizens has decreased to 38 the recreation needs have changed. I am delighted the Town was
able to upgrade our few ball fields and little league baseball has returned to our town. There has been a significant
increase in the number of children participating in soccer, softball, and basketball. The formation of youth
basketball leagues was possible because the Town and the NWISD are working closer together than ever before.
In business they tell you to plan your work, and then work your plan. Trophy Club's Plan is outlined in Vision 2008.
It was developed by the residents and unanimously accepted by the Town Council on December 15, 1998.
Some of the major things we have accomplished working the plan are, (a) receipt of a $500,000 matching grant to
build a community park between Beck and Medlin schools; (b) opening of Trophy Club Plaza anchored by Tom
Thumb; (c) implementation of a program to stop the deterioration of our streets; (d) the Fourth of July returned to
Trophy Club, and (e) the creation of the Joint Trophy Club -Westlake Department of Public Safety (DPS). The cost
sharing arrangement of the joint DPS permits us to now have two paramedics on duty 24 hours a day 7 day a week
and an additional ambulance. This agreement also permitted us to cut this years police and EMS budgets by $53K.
All this has been done without an increase in the tax rate. In truth the tax rate is approximately 1% less than it was
in 1998.
The Town last fiscal year ended with a budget surplus of $147,000 and a cash reserve equal to 90 days operating
expenses in an interest bearing account. These facts were confirmed in an independent audit report accepted
unanimously by the Town Council on March 19, 2001. IT WAS NOT LUCK!
How does Trophy Club fiscal management rate over all? In a recently TEL/GROG published report comparing
financial performance for fourteen towns in the area In the area of cost per resident for the current fiscal year --ten of
the fourteen had a higher cost per -resident than did the town of Trophy Club including the two MUDS.
Unfortunately there are five issues that have not been resolved. These include (1) future growth; (2) the question of
locating a high school east of 1-35; (3) closure of the T.W. King/Kirkwood by Sabre Corporation; (4) Right to vote
in a wet dry election; and (5) future of the C.I.A. The following is a status report as to where we stand today on each
of these subjects.
• 1 view the question of who pays for the construction of a thoroughfare, commonly called the loop road, is a red
herring that has diverted our attention from the real question. The real question is -- Do the residents of Trophy
Club want the Town to grow?
Having a loop road is key to growth. It has been widely reported that the developer understood the cost of the
infrastructure was entirely theirs when they purchased the land 9 years ago. The only written agreement I can find
on the subject was one executed when Beck purchased the land from the bankruptcy court talks only about water
lines and sewers -- roads are not mentioned. The agreement also says everything is negotiable.
Page 4 EXECUTIVE AND REGULAR SESSION May 21, 2001
In 1997 as a member of the Town Council I remember the Town Engineer established the meets and bounds for the
loop road which was approved by Planning and Zoning and the Council as part of an update to die Master Plan.
Beck properties then deeded the land for the loop road to the Town.
I also believe the residents of Trophy Club are subject to a double standard. Denton County Officials advocate the
use of tax payer funds to assist development everywhere but in Trophy Club. Robison Ranch is the prime example
(The $750,000 that has been committed by Denton County we is bond monies. It is half of the amount allocated in
die Bond election of January 1999 to repair Marshall Creek Road.)
• Many residents tell me they want a high school east of 1-35. The School Board has ruled, and rightfully so,
building of a high school depends upon population. Its location also depends on having a access to the school
site. Because we are the largest town in the NWISD east of 1-35 if we are going to have a high school sooner
rather than later-- we must have a thoroughfare.
The Town has been working hard to keep T.W. King open for residents desiring to exit die east side of Trophy
Club and travel east on SH 114. We spent over $20,000 in lawyer fees and designing alternative routes. Legal
opinion after legal opinion has told us the Town, nor its residents, have no legal standing on the matter. Our
initial negotiating position with Southlake was hindered by the fact Trophy Club's Mayor reneged on a verbal
commitment made to the Southlake Town Council on June 5, 1995 to enter into an inter local agreement over
the use of the road. (I have listened to die tape.) We were able to get a fifteen -month delay. In our last meeting
with Sabre a few weeks ago, they reported their recent business arrangement with ENS made having a secure
campus even more. They confirmed T.W. King and Kirkwood would be closed to traffic around December
first.
The right to vote issue. I would judge the question I received most frequently in the last eight months was why
can't the Town hold a local option election. As most of you know because we are in two counties, Tarrant and
Denton, the right to hold an election is controlled by the state legislature which meets every two years. I began
talking to Representative Vickie Truitt in July of 2000. We were one of five towns in the bill she sponsored this
session. She was forced to drop three of the five towns from her bill in order to get it something.
Representative Denny, who was a supporter of Vickie Truitt's bill, picked up the cause and with our assistance
sponsored which was voted out of committee on May 6's. However, it was not placed on the House calendar for
this session.
The C.I.A. is a non-profit corporation that is separate from the Town. It is governed by an independent board of
directors. An election was held in early April and a new C.I.A. board is in place. The C.I.A. pool is a vital part
of the Town's summer recreation program. An average of 177 people use the pool on a daily basis, not
counting the usage by the Trophy Club Swimming Team. The good news is the C.I.A. has entered into an
agreement to use the Country Club Pool this summer. C.I.A. recently received approval of a loan to build the
pool. The initial one page design submitted by the C.I.A.'s contractor in March 01 in an attempt to obtain a
building permit was returned with a list of information needed in order to determine if constructor meet
established health and ADA standards. As far as the Town assuming the majority of duties of the C.I.A. The
next board has requested time to determine where they stand prior to entering into any discussions on the
subject. I trust this added time will permit the contractor to provided this needed information.
On a personal note as for our future, this summer Ronnie and I plan to visit relatives and to learn to fish in
Minnesota. I just completed a textbook on acquisition management, which is scheduled to be published this July,
and I plan to return to teaching.
To Scott Smith and the new Town Council we extend to each of you our best wishes.
Mayor Pro Tem Edstrom addressed Barb Tweedie and Marshall Engelbeck with the following words,
Tonight we are thanking two of our Council Members for their services on the to the Town.
First, to Barb Tweedie. This has been a really enjoyable two years for me for the opportunity to work close with
Barb on a lot of Town issues and to sit with her as Trophy Club representatives in the Women in Government Group
of elected women representatives from area governments addressing issues of common interests to Towns and Cities
Page 5 EXECUTIVE AND REGULAR SESSION May 21, 2001
in our area. Her thoughtful and concerned attention to issues before us has added to her reputation as a kind and
gracious lady. Barb has long had the reputation in all she does in Trophy Club whether as a Council Member, as a
member of various Town volunteer committees and as a long time leader in the Trophy Club Women's Club as the
person who could get things done. When jobs have needed to be done and done right, the guarantee of success has
been to put Barb Tweedie in charge. We are going to miss her kind and gentle yet firm attention to the details of our
Council deliberations. Barb has often been the one to remind us of the reasons she loves Trophy Club and to remind
us of the really important things in our Town life as we have deliberated some knotty and sometimes difficult issues.
Fortunately, for us, Barb is not going anywhere soon. She has graciously agreed to move back into leadership of the
Public Relations Committee to help guide major Town events like the upcoming Fourth of July Celebration and
other activities to promote our Town.
So Barb, from all of us who have served with you on die Council, from the Town Staff, from grateful residents and
with a special personal thanks from me for being a good friend and a partner in many activities these past two years,
we present you with this gift as a token of thanks for all you have done and we look forward to your continuing
contributions to helping Trophy Club continue to grow as a great place to call home.
And to Marshall Engelbeck, where do you begin? With over a decade of service to the Town as Mayor and as a
member of the Council, your contributions truly are too many to list, so I won't try to do that here. There are some
important highlights of your leadership as our Mayor that I want to point out not just because of the deeds
themselves or because of your leadership successes but more because of what they represent as your vision for our
future and your huge personal commitment to the success of the Town. In this past two years we have for the first
time instituted a strategic plan to provide a roadmap for the future of the Town. We have set aside new park land
and created the opportunity for significant recreational areas in the future through the Corps land lease, and we have
had a renewed dedication to youth sports. We completed the second commercial construction with significant tax
contribution potential in the Tom Thumb Center, we constructed a Clock Tower as the focal point of the community
and put in place beautification programs to enhance our entrances and public areas. We developed a joint DPS drat
will not only save residents money over the years but also will also provide the best in Fire and Police protection for
our residents and those of Westlake. For the first time we have a strong working relationship with our School
District leading to the sharing of facilities for the benefit of our residents both young and old and we have in place a
long term road repair plan to protect our infrastructure investment, and a solid financial management plan and
money in the bank. All that plus an almost thirty percent growth in our population in the past two years adds up to
the most dynamic period in our Town's history. I do not believe we could have accomplished all that and managed
it so smoothly with out the commitment, the leadership, and the management skills you have brought to die Town as
our Mayor. As a military commander, as a decorated combat veteran, as a businessman, as an educator and as our
Town leader you have demonstrated for all of us the true meaning of the words dedication, commitment, hard work,
leadership and personal integrity. We owe you a great deal for what you have accomplished on our behalf but
perhaps more important is what we owe you for the solid base you have helped us achieve and the vision for our
future. We are all extremely grateful and we present you with this token of our gratitude and appreciation and we
look forward to your help and your sage advise as we grow into the future.
Donna Welsh expressed appreciation to Barb Twecdie and Marshall Engelbeck.
Council Member Huizenga described Barb Tweedie as always having her heart in the right place and communicated
to Marshall Engelbeck that is he a leader in negotiating and wished both of them the best.
Council Member Matthat announced that he had tremendous pleasure working with both Barb Tweedie and
Marshall Engelbeck.
Council Member Tweedie welcomed the new Council Members and let it be known that six or eight months ago her
doctor asked her to resign. She went to Marshall and the Town attorney and Marshall has helped her to continue to
be involved.
Council Member Smith claimed that lie will not miss Barb Tweedic because she will stay involved and expressed
his respect to Marshall, told him that he wants him to continue to be involved and that he has set the bar very high.

OATH OF OFFICE TO BE ADMINISTERED TO THE INCOMING COUNCIL MEMBERS
Municipal Court Judge Mark Chambers administered the oath of office to Scott Spence, Roger Williams and Scott
Smith.
5 -MINUTE RECESS
The Council recessed at 8:26 p.m.
Mayor Smith called the meeting to order at 8:36 p.m.
REMARKS TO/FROM INCOMING MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS
Council Member Spence said thank you, so far, to his supporters
Council Member Williams said thank you to his supporters, listed some of the issues facing Trophy Club and
reported that he is looking forward to working with the Council.
Pearl O. Ford of 2 Spring Creek Court addressed the Council.
Mayor Smith recognized everyone that voted in this past election, it's exercising your constitutional right to vote, it
is the best way to influence your government and I thank you very much. I want to welcome our two Council
Members, they are good guys, they are smart guys and they will be a much-needed addition to our Council. I will
try to utilize their knowledge and talents to the max. Welcome. I also want to thank the men and women who run
our elections, they donate countless hours, unselfishly and are dedicated to always managing a fair and effective
election free of controversy and I applaud them. A lot of times they just do not get recognized like they should and
they're a key element to our democratic way. Of course, I want to thank my campaign team, I look out there in the
audience and of course there is Carol Cotton sitting right up front and she was my main guy, if I can say that, and
Kelly Hughes, Chris Clark, Don Cotton, Ron Moranville and I know I'm missing a lot of folks but you guys made it
happen and I want to thank you very much, you are the best. Someone told me not to forget to thank my mother, so
thanks mom and dad, I want to make sure that I get that in. It was obvious that the residents voted for change and if
you would have suggested a few years ago, maybe just two years ago, that our next mayor would be elected from the
west side of town, most people would not have believed it. Well, that's a change and you won't hear me refer to
Trophy Club as the west, east or middle any more. That's the first time and last time I'll say that, maybe not the first
time, but the last time.
I pulled a majority from all sections of ages and votes and this election was for all of Trophy Club and I think that
shows we are not divided but that we are very unified. We can now move forward together as one, just like Pearl
mentioned. That's my utmost goal.
Once again, I ask Marshall to continue to stay involved and I hope he will do that and also Barb Tweedie, who has
already promised me that she will continue to be involved. I'm very grateful for that.
One of the first things that I would like to introduce will be to allow our citizens to not only speak at the beginning
of an agenda item, but to have the ability to address the Council at the end of the discussion. A citizen's right to
speak, this is their best means of communication to the Council and I want to broaden where applicable. I want to
also offer my services to the CIA and to help in any way I can to get the pool issue resolved and get the pool built.
East entrance must be resolved and I have some ideas on strengthening the Ways and Means Committees. I also,
like Marshall mentioned, about the breakfasts with Keith Sockwell and Northwest Independent School District, I
will definitely continue to do that. I think we can gain so much from joint usage with the school district and that
will benefit us immensely.
With no further to do, I guess we should get down to business and once again, I'd like to thank you for being here
tonight and thank you for your support. I will do my best to live up to your expectations. Thank you.
