Williams Square Plaza Update

Excitement grows as the Irving Williams Square Plaza reconstruction project progresses on schedule with a projected spring 2022 completion date. The $7.8 million Capital Improvement Program project, located in the heart of Irving’s Urban Center, will soon transform into a pedestrian-friendly destination where visitors from all will enjoy the refinished iconic mustangs plus a variety of improved plaza amenities.

Significant repairs to the infrastructure are currently underway including replacing the pumps, valves, controls and piping for the entire fountain with new spray jets and lighting within the fountain basin. The new piping is heavy-duty and built to last for many years. Crews also are working on a new water supply line and completely

reworking the electrical supply to provide enhanced lighting within the plaza for added security at night.

Upon completion, Williams Square Plaza will welcome guests with enhanced landscaping, including three 10-by-10-foot waterproof tree wells that will hold 30-foot-Bur oak trees. In addition, the city is adding several shaded seating areas, a large stage area in front of the north tower, an ADA-compliant access ramp and an elevated viewing platform in front of the west tower, providing a unique view of the Mustangs of Las Colinas — a perfect photo-op experience!

Make the Easy Choice: Recycle

"What a great workout,” Jane says as she opens her shiny silver fridge to grab a cold, refreshing water bottle. The plastic bottle sharply crinkles as she twists the cap off to quench her thirst. As she heads to the front door, she tosses her empty plastic bottle into her blue recycling bag and strolls down her two-step porch, waving at Bob as he slowly drives down the street. Thud. Crunch. Clank. Bob carelessly tosses a clear plastic bottle out the car window, which is now quickly rolling downhill in the breeze, hitting the concrete curb and sliding into a nearby storm drain.

The plastic bottle has become a pollutant in the city’s stormwater drainage system, instead of a potential recyclable byproduct. In Fiscal Year 2020-21, crews removed 337,060 pounds of debris from the city’s drainage system.

Because of Bob’s choice, the bottle’s journey follows the path of being:

1. Dirty and tarnished floating through the dark drainage system,

2. Before it is released into the open-air stormwater runoff, and finally,

3. Discarded into a nearby stream, pond or lake where it will disrupt wildlife ecosystems, as well as any recreational areas and water views.

Do not be like Bob. Make the easy choice to "Toss Like a Boss," and remember — only rain down the drain.

Teen Center Getting Upgrades to Improve Programming

A project funded by bonds approved in 2006 will bring new improvements to the Lively Pointe Youth Center, 909 N. O’Connor Road. Already in the design phase, the recreation facility updates will cost approximately $400,000.

Updates and Upgrades

While teens are welcome at all of the city’s recreation centers, they have a place to call their own at Lively Pointe. Opened in June 2008, the center’s programs are specifically designed for middle and high school students ages 12 to 18.

Projects includes:

● Renovating, enlarging and upgrading kitchen area.

 Expanding into the current canteen.

 Transforming to a teaching kitchen: An island with stovetop will be added for students to gather around, and cameras and screens will be set up to allow for remote teaching.

 Enlarging the pantry and storage area.

 Installing new appliances and cabinets.

● Opening up the space inside the facility by removing columns and a glass wall.

● Reconfiguring the staff area to provide better visibility of the building’s entry.

● Installing new flooring and lighting.

● Expanding the gaming (pool table, ping pong) and esports areas.

Construction expected to begin in spring 2022 and is scheduled for completion in the fall. Learn about the city’s teen programs at CityofIrving.org/LivelyPointe n

Tips for Taking a Winter Vacation from Irrigation

As turf becomes dormant ― changing from spring green to fall beige ― it is a sign to take a break from weekly watering. Trees, shrubs and dormant grass require irrigation every four to six weeks in the winter. The best approach is to turn off the irrigation controller and operate the system manually, no more than once per month, when temperatures remain well above freezing. Also, keeping the controller off helps prevent accidental activation that can cause icing.

From Nov. 1 to April 1, it is acceptable to irrigate during daytime hours, when it is typically warmest. Residents are encouraged to refrain from weekly watering during the winter to help lawns recover and prepare for spring. Additionally, this will aid in saving on water costs.

It is always a good idea to conduct a checkup on an irrigation system before use, including the rain/freeze sensor, to ensure proper operation. To prevent irrigation lines from freezing, turn off and drain the system. For more information, contact a licensed irrigator in the Water Utilities Department at (972) 721-2281.

URBAN WILDLIFE IN IRVING

Irving is home to a wide variety of native wildlife species including birds, mammals, reptiles, amphibians and more. These animals thrive in our urban community, finding easy access to sources of food, water and shelter that they need to survive. Irving Animal Services (IAS) encourages residents to be proactive with the tips below to help prevent wildlife conflicts.

● Do not attempt to feed or touch any wild animal.

● Remove access to any sources of food and water around the home.

● Keep trash tightly sealed, and place it on the curb the morning of pickup.

● Feed pets indoors. If feeding outdoors, put food out only at mealtime and pick up any remaining food.

● Securely close any pet doors at night.

● Keep landscaping and trees trimmed and remove debris around your home. Block or remove access to any sources of shelter.

● Carefully inspect and repair holes or other openings on the exterior of your home, including holes in crawlspaces or attics.

● Make loud noises, spray water or use other hazing techniques if wild animals are approaching you or your pets.

The City of Irving does not own or have control of any wild animals found within its boundaries. In fact, wild animals have no owners to be responsible for their actions. However, IAS officers will respond to situations where public safety is in jeopardy or in situations where a wild animal is sick or injured.

Water Storage Expands in Irving

City of Irving Water Utilities Department Adds Newest Water Storage Tank to Its System

When Irving built the Northgate Pump Station in 2007, the city’s population was just shy of 200,000. Constructed to provide more efficient service to residents in the eastern quadrant of the city, it now works in tandem with three other pump stations across Irving to supply safe drinking water to more than 256,000 residents.

efficiency, removing the time and funding allocated toward recoating and repainting as is necessary for steel tanks.

Planning For Growth

The city is focused on continually investing in its water and wastewater system. About $42 million a year is reinvested into infrastructure — replacing pipes; installing new pipes for future growth; and enhancing pump stations, elevated and ground storage tanks.

The Northgate Pump Station’s 5-milliongallon water storage tank project hit its first milestone in September when crews installed the concrete base. Other details of the project include:

As the city’s population and development increase, so do the needs of its vital infrastructure system. On Sept. 21, crew members began a nine-hour concrete placement project on the pump station’s newest addition: a 5-million-gallon, ground-level water storage tank. The tank will aid the Water Utilities Department in meeting the needs of Irving’s growth in the Urban Center, as well as future development of the former stadium site. It will also add resiliency to the city’s growing infrastructure needs — serving as the 11th ground-level water storage tank in Irving.

● 1,600 cubic yards of concrete placed.

● Nine hours of concrete placement from start to finish.

● More than 20 crew members completed the concrete placement.

● Thirty-six preformed concrete walls will line the storage tank.

● Fifteen months total to build the tank from the ground up.

● $10.882 million to construct the water storage tank.

Construction on the $10.882 million tank started in January. While many of the city’s tanks are made of steel, this newer-style tank is constructed entirely of concrete. In the long term, this will help Water Utilities’

Additionally, the city oversees 50,000 water meters within its limits — all of which have a lifespan of about 12 to 15 years before they must be replaced. With this challenge in mind, the city is currently operating an ongoing water meter replacement project, updating 4,000 to 5,000 meters annually.

The new ground storage tank project will aid the Water Utilities Department in its efforts to maintain exceptional water capacity and level of service for Irving residents and water customers.

The project is expected to be completed in the spring of 2022.

Reduce Waste this Holiday Season

Have a lot of Thanksgiving leftovers? Here are a few ideas to make the most out of Thanksgiving leftovers while reducing food waste in the landfill.

● Use Thanksgiving leftovers to create a delicious breakfast food, such as hash or sweet potato casserole pancakes.

● Mashed potatoes with butter, sour cream, chopped bacon and green onion leftovers can be made into Potato Cakes and heated in a skillet.

● Not quite ready for lunch? Try sweet potato hummus for a snack.

● Slice or shred turkey for classic Thanksgiving leftovers sandwiches or turkey pot pie.

● Chop leftover meat for turkey soup.

● Sweet potatoes and baked squash can be broken down on slow speed in a blender and become Golden Autumn Soup.

● Tired of Thanksgiving food? Use leftover stuffing to create Italian meatballs.

● Turkey Pasta Casserole is another creative option.

Reducing food waste has never been so sweet. Use extra cranberry sauce in desserts: Thanksgiving Cranberry Cookies, Cranberry Crumble (recipe to follow), and Cranberry Cream Cheese Turnovers.

Cranberry Crumble Cook Time: 15 minutes

Servings: 2-4

Ingredients: 4 cups of leftover cranberry sauce

2 cups crunchy granola

2 scoops frozen yogurt or ice cream 1 tablespoon honey

Directions: Pour cranberry sauce directly into a skillet on medium heat. Cook to a syrup consistency. Reduce heat. Remove skillet from heat and divide into heatproof dishes. Top with granola and ice cream. Drizzle with honey.
