More than two dozen Irving residents attended the Oct. 19 Lee Park Pool Public Input Meeting to share their thoughts on a conceptual design for the future Lee Park Pool. The new pool will feature a beach-style entry, lap lanes, interactive features, a play zone and shaded seating. Demolition of the 60-year-old existing pool and construction of the new pool is anticipated to begin in summer 2024.

During the Sept. 14 City Council meeting, the Council voted unanimously to approve The Fain Group, Inc. as the Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR), as well as a design services contract with Dunaway Associates Inc.
The design contract includes the design of a new familyoriented neighborhood pool at Lee Park. The CMAR is a project delivery method in which a construction manager is hired to oversee a project through completion. Using the CMAR method helps shorten the overall project time to construct the new Lee Park Swimming Pool, as well as streamline the process to provide the highest overall project quality for the most economical cost to the city.

Protecting Irving Resident Interests from State Attacks on Local Authority
and community services has been hindered by state legislation that takes a one-size-fits-all approach.
Hostility toward local governments came into full view in 2019, after legislators attempted to pass a bill that would keep cities and counties from advocating for themselves in the legislature. The sitting Speaker of the House Dennis Bonnen was recorded in a meeting with State Representative Dustin Burrows saying they “hate” cities and counties and promising the next session would be even worse than the last.
Resident awareness and involvement are key to protecting and maintaining the safety, finances and quality of life of each individual who lives in Irving. Irving Legislative Insider is a public awareness campaign to educate residents about the negative impacts some state legislation has on communities across Texas.

The team has completed 60% of the inspections and has found no lead in the distribution system.
Additionally, staff continues reviewing service line records and so far, has not found lead content in Irving. Water Utilities hopes to examine every water line by October 2024, at which time, residents can review the findings through an online database.
The EPA updated the Lead and Copper Rule requiring water providers to review construction records or examine water service lines to ensure no lead service lines exist in distribution systems. More updates to the rule are expected next year.

from lowest to most immediate repair needs.
Currently, the MDU division is working on Fritz Park. During phases 2 and 3, crews will remove concrete debris from the area and replace it with a stabilizing embankment.
One of those methods is the use of drainage channel maintenance and litter abatement, part of the Municipal Drainage Utility (MDU) division of the Capital Improvement Program. As the city completes major drainage channel and community projects, such as Upper and Lower Delaware Creek and Jaycee Park, it is important that crews maintain the infrastructure to ensure proper flow of stormwater and runoff.
Proactive Approach
The MDU division is responsible for maintaining and repairing concretelined channels and storm inlets. The team provides de-siltation service of ponds and drainage channels, as well as storm pipe inspections, replacement and repairs.
The City of Irving manages more than 90 miles of drainage channels. The CIP Department oversees and maintains the following infrastructure:
● More than 27 miles of concrete-lined channels
● 51 miles of drainage maintained by the city
● 39 miles of drainage maintained by flood control districts
● 38 concrete channels totaling 27.3 miles
● More than 355 miles of storm pipes
● 34 siltation ponds
To keep channels and retention ponds functioning properly, MDU dredges sand, dirt and debris that collect because of heavy rainfall and water runoff from highways and thoroughfares throughout the city. By keeping these waterways clear of trash, such as litter or shopping carts, it furthers the life cycle and integrity of the drainage channels and ensures that water continues to drain efficiently without flooding or ponding.
In addition to the traditional methods of debris removal and channel repair, MDU also incorporates new, sustainable ideas and methods into its drainage efforts. The division established its first grow zone in Running Bear Park. The process uses native plants and flowers that use their long root systems to naturally assist with erosion and drainage control. As rainwater flows through the area carrying trash, the grow zones collect the debris and filter pollution and contaminants before it seeps into the groundwater.
The city has grow zones at Cottonwood Creek Park and Veterans Memorial Park. These projects help revitalize parks and further the city’s beautification efforts.
MDU projects are part of the Drainage Solutions for a Better Tomorrow campaign, which promotes the city’s continuous investment and improvement of drainage channels throughout Irving.
Visit CityofIrving.org/IrvingInvests for more information on the city’s ongoing infrastructure initiative.
