Notice: Temporary Change to Building Inspection Department Hours
Starting Monday, Nov. 3 through Wednesday, Dec. 10, the Colleyville Building Inspection Department offices will close at 4:00 p.m. City staff will be using the time from 4:00-5:00 p.m. to begin implementation and training on a new developmental technology program.
Once operational, this technology will allow us to provide timely, accurate, consistent information. In addition, certain permits, such as water heater replacement, re-roofing, etc., will be available online. This new system, an IVR system, provides 24/7 inspection confirmation and communication. Contractors will be able to use their phones to check on field inspection results, schedule or cancel inspections, and find technical information. They also will be able to access the same information (interactively) via the internet. During this time we also will be working to establish handheld computers and printers for our field inspectors to assist in the consistent education and transfer of information to our development community. We appreciate your understanding during this time and look forward to serving you in the future.

City trash rate increases
Effective Nov. 1, residential trash pick-up and recycling rates in Colleyville will increase 64 cents per month, per household. The monthly fee for twice-a-week trash collection will rise from $8.26 to $8.77; the monthly rate for once-a-week recycling pick-up will be adjusted from $$1.79 to $1.92, making the taxable monthly base total $10.69.
Higher fuel prices and an adjusted consumer price index were cited as the reason for the increase, which is allowable under the terms of the city’s contract with IESI, the city’s waste-collection provider.
Customers will continue to have unlimited pick-up of normal household trash and yard waste bags, as well as pick-up of up to four tied bundles of brush or fencing in each pick-up. Customers also are allowed four large-item pick-ups (up to four cubic yards) throughout the year. The new rates will be reflected in the bills that customers receive in the month of November.
