Repairs to city sidewalks as well as the City Council chambers in Colleyville to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act were recommended during a June budget presentation to the City Council.
City Public Works Director Bob Lowry told the council the problem is not uncommon in cities that lack a strong advocacy group for the disabled. He included the items in a list of capital improvements suggested for 2014 at the June 26 budget workshop.
Other recommendations were for new projects such as a roundabout at Jackson and Cheek Sparger roads and building maintenance, including cleaning and sealing the stone on City Hall.
The preliminary overview showed the 2013-14 budget is estimated at $36 million. The capital improvements portion is about $9 million.
Colleyville expects to see tax revenues rise by about $730,000 next year as more homes are built, values of existing homes increase, grocer Whole Foods opens and development occurs elsewhere.
The council will review the early budget plan again in July and a proposed budget will be distributed to the council Aug. 13.
