OUR COMMUNITY
Citizen Survey to open in late January
Each year, the City of Hurst engages in our Strategic Planning Process to determine priorities for the upcoming budget. This process allows the City Council to evaluate community needs and assess their impact on the City’s budget while also helping the City determine which services to provide and at what level they are offered. Our annual citizen survey is a critical factor affecting the strategic planning process.
We will open up our survey for responses in late January. Once the survey is closed, staff and council will evaluate how responses have changed over the past year to develop a strategic plan to guide the budget process effectively. These survey results are direct feedback and information that is critical to developing the council’s priorities that staff uses to develop the proposed budget.
We are excited about the opportunity to continue to provide highquality services to our residents. We sincerely appreciate all who have responded to our surveys now and in the past. The responses we receive play a vital role in helping us develop a budget that meets the needs of our community today and in the future. We will announce on our website and social media when the survey is open.

FISCAL BUDGET
City uses Strategic Plan to adopt new budget
October 1 marked the beginning of a new fiscal year for the City of Hurst. The first step when developing our budget each year is making our annual citizen survey available for community input. The City Council and staff discuss the feedback received from the survey and use the information to develop the annual budget.
The budget process includes a review of our property tax rate and calculating the tax rate as outlined by the State’s Truth in Taxation forms. Did you know that the majority of your property tax payment — typically around 75%, goes to your local school districts, Tarrant County, Tarrant County College, and JPS
Health Network? That means that only about 25% of your tax bill is used to fund city services. Under the adopted tax rate, you receive full city services, including police, fire, streets, parks & recreation, library, and more, for less than $4 a day. That’s an incredible value, about the same price as your daily cup of coffee.
It’s also important to know that Hurst was an early adopter of tax breaks for our residents. Many other taxing entities are now beginning to offer or expand tax breaks that the City of Hurst has offered for well over twenty years. For decades, the City of Hurst has offered the highest level of homestead exemption

Lemonade Day
allowed by law. And, there are other exemptions homeowners may qualify for. Through state and local exemptions, only about 70% of the total market value of property in Hurst is subject to local property taxes. This means that within the City of Hurst, over 1.4 billion dollars in value is not subject to property taxes.
This year, the Council adopted a tax rate of approximately 59 cents. This tax rate supports primary City services, including police, fire, public works, and community services operations. For the City budget, property taxes continue to be the most reliable and stable revenue source for our General Fund, which supports important services such as police and fire operations. The Fiscal Year 25 general fund budget was increased by 4.57%, totaling $44.6 million. Over the past 10
years, the average general fund budget increase has been 3.1%, while inflation costs facing cities have been around 3.5% on average over the same time period. This reflects the commitment of the Council and staff to longterm financial sustainability while maintaining excellent services. Hurst continues to be a desirable location for homes and businesses. The strength of our location and resulting property values means that Hurst is a good investment—now—and in the future.
The budget includes realistic inflation increases. Cities are facing the same issues as private businesses with increases in utility, fuel, supply, labor, and other costs. This is especially apparent in the market for maintenance contractors and supply vendors, who have increased costs significantly over the past year, affecting

our Fleet and Information Technology funds the most. The cost of public safety vehicles has increased by 50% over the last two years. Trends in information technology are moving towards software as a service, which is increasing costs as vendors remove software licensing that was available in the past. Additionally, maintenance labor costs have increased significantly in the last few years, including costs associated with state and federal mandates.
Following the Strategic Plan, City Council and staff focus on five strategic priorities when developing the budget each year. Those priorities are Public Safety, Leadership, Innovation, Community and Economic Vitality, and Infrastructure. As shown in the annual citizen survey, Public Safety, Infrastructure, and Community and Economic Vitality were your top priorities for us to focus on for the upcoming budget year.
Hurst employees are committed to providing exceptional customer service while being responsive to the needs of the community. The adopted budget includes a citywide cost of living adjustment following a study of the local municipal employment market.
The City of Hurst remains committed to attracting and retaining top municipal talent. This helps us reach our goal of providing excellent customer service as a return on your investment. In fact, the majority of our services are directly provided by our employees, which account for about 75% of general fund expenditures. Of this amount, the greatest portion is spent on public safety in alignment with the Council’s strategic priorities and citizen input.
In order to provide responsive customer service to the public, this year’s budget includes some key investments, such as Information Technology security upgrades to protect our City’s data infrastructure, various public safety equipment replacements and enhancements, such as a new alerting system for Fire stations, an updated automated external defibrillator service contract, and expansion of the City’s license plate reader program to help leverage technology in support of public safety. The budget also includes one-
time expenditures to aid the City in managing traffic flow around high-traffic areas.
The citizen survey indicated infrastructure is also a critical part of our community and budget. The City has several street projects, some through partnerships with Tarrant County, like Pipeline Road. We have also received $2 million in bonds to repair and maintain our streets. We believe safe and well-maintained streets contribute to community safety and livability.
To help maintain Hurst’s quality of life and infrastructure, the budget includes updating and replacing various components of our parks system with a particular focus on the Hurst Athletic Complex. Parks will also receive funding to replace various pieces of equipment and add a MadVac, which will help in litter collection and control in and around City facilities.
We’re dedicated to our community and its economic vitality. We listen to the community’s needs and adjust our programs to support a vibrant community and economy. Last year, we introduced new events like Pups & Pints at the Dog Park, Pop-Up Egg Hunts, Arbor Adventure, and National Lemonade Day. We’re also making our signature events, like Stars & Stripes, even better. We continue to build strong relationships with local businesses through outreach, education, and engagement. We remain in communication with businesses as we consider future opportunities and seek other collaboration opportunities. Recently, the City has partnered with Rehab Warriors to turn the old Fire Station #2 on Precinct Line Road into a facility for their veteran’s trade program. Additionally, the North Central Texas Council of Governments has begun a redevelopment plan for the Hurst Boulevard Corridor, where we play a key role as an important partner.
We’ve quickly covered the General Fund budget, which provides for the majority of city operations. Details on our other sources of funding, including the Enterprise Fund, the Community Services and Anti-Crime Half Cent Sales Tax Funds, and the Debt Service Fund, can be found online at hursttx.gov/budget
Hurst Police Department launches PowerEngage to strengthen community connections
The Hurst Police Department is excited to introduce PowerEngage—a new way to stay connected with our community and hear directly from you. Through this tool, the police department will gather valuable feedback on certain non-emergency calls to help understand how they can better serve you. Hurst Police Department has started short text surveys after specific interactions with 911 or the department. These quick surveys allow you to share your experience to improve and tailor services to meet your needs. Not
everyone will receive a survey, and if you prefer not to participate, you can simply ignore it or let us know in advance by calling 817-788-7131. Please remember that this survey is for feedback only and not for emergencies, formal complaints, or reporting criminal activity.
At Hurst, we’re a community built on connection, and your voice helps us strengthen that connection every day!
We recently celebrated the 200th home in Hurst revitalized through 6 Stones’ Community Powered Revitalization (CPR) program! Since 1998, the City of Hurst has contributed to improving neighborhoods and helping people in need through our employee volunteer program, now known as Hurst Gives Back. Qualified residents can receive home maintenance assistance, including painting, fence repair, and yard cleanup. In 2010, Hurst and 6 Stones, a local nonprofit, partnered to expand volunteers, donations, and community support. This effort reflects the City of Hurst’s and 6 Stones’
We are proud to have reached this incredible milestone Visit hursttx.gov/CPR for information to apply for the CPR program.
dedication to building a strong and thriving community.
Several times a year, City of Hurst employees volunteer their time and resources during the workday to help fix up a home for a Hurst resident in need and contribute to making their homes safe, cared for, and welcoming. We’ve had a hand in not only improving homes but positively impacting the lives of our neighbors who live in them.
Hurst employees and 6 Stones volunteers celebrate 200 homes completed though the Community Powered Revitalization program.
program.
Community Powered Revitalization milestone set in Hurst with 200th home project completion
of serving 200 residents through 6 Stones’ CPR program. The 200th home served belongs to a single mom who shows incredible strength and kindness. She has fostered and adopted three of her four children and works hard to care for their unique needs. Despite her efforts, it became harder to keep up with home maintenance.
Hurst employees and 6 Stones volunteers were proud to help her. By repairing her home, they eased some of her stress and made sure her family has a safe, comfortable place to live.
Hurst’s partnership with 6 Stones is more than just a program—it’s proof of what people can achieve when they work together. From the first home to the 200th, this initiative has become a key part of the City’s mission to strengthen neighborhoods and bring pride to its residents.
The City of Hurst and its partners are excited to continue this work, creating a brighter future for the community—one home, one family, and one day at a time.
W ater M eter r eplace M ent p roject
The City of Hurst is working on a water meter replacement project, which is designed to enhance service and efficiency for all utility customers. This project will include water meter replacements and a City-wide survey of pipe material at the water meter.
Per recently passed federal and state requirements, the City of Hurst is utilizing Ameresco and their subcontractor, Second Sight Systems, to evaluate pipe material at the water meter to meet the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Lead & Copper requirements. The initial survey phase of the project began in October 2024 and will continue through February 2025 unless they finish sooner.
During the initial phase, Ameresco and their subcontractor, Second Sight Systems, will have crews properly identified with either the “Ameresco” or “Second Sight Systems” logos on their vehicles and uniforms.
These employees will open meter boxes to check service line material and replace the lid. The process will not disrupt water service but usually requires digging around the water meter. In many cases, the field crews will use a vactor truck and/or trailer to extract dirt from the water meter box.
The next phase of this project will be the replacement of the water meters with an Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) system. This upgraded system allows customers the ability to review their water usage through an online customer portal.
We anticipate the next phase to begin in February or March of 2025. Please be on the lookout for more information regarding the upcoming phase of this project. All information about this project and updates are available by visiting our website at hursttx.gov/AMI .
If you have questions or concerns, please contact Public Works Dispatch at 817-788-7212.
CodeRED Emergency Notification System
The City of Hurst uses the CodeRED Emergency Notification System to notify the entire city or only the affected areas via telephone or cell phone about emergency situations in a matter of minutes. The system is available to all Hurst residents free of charge. These phone calls will begin with “This is a CodeRED Emergency message from The City of Hurst.”
In what case would I receive a CodeRED message?
• Homeland Security-related emergencies
• Hazardous material emergencies
• Drinking water contamination
• Other emergency situations where rapid and accurate notification is essential for life safety
• Missing persons report
• Warning of significant weather
What should I do if I receive a CodeRED message?
• Listen to the entire message carefully, and follow the instructions.
• DO NOT call 9-1-1 unless instructed to do so.
City of Hurst wins Texas Coalition for Affordable Power (TCAP) Award
The City of Hurst was honored with the Texas Coalition for Affordable Power’s (TCAP) 2024 Energy Conservation and Energy Leadership Award at the Texas Municipal League (TML) Conference in October of 2024. The award recognizes an impressive LED lighting project at the Hurst Conference Center, which has helped lower operating costs and reduce the Center’s energy use.
When the Hurst Conference Center first opened in 2010, it had traditional fluorescent lights that kept monthly electric bills above $10,000, sometimes hitting $17,000 during summer. The project team, led by then General Manager Chris Connolly (now the City’s Executive Director of Economic Development) and Facility Manager Tony Guillaume, replaced over 1,000 fixtures both inside and outside.
The project took several months to complete. Switching to LED lights also had unexpected benefits. The 500-watt bulbs in the ballroom originally reached
over 1,000°F, heating the room significantly and causing the air conditioning system to work overtime. The new 85-watt LED lights, which are brighter and last longer, reach only about 104°F, making temperature control much easier.
There was also a challenge in the lobby, a large 13,000-square-foot space with a 40-foot east-facing glass wall. The glass wasn’t low-emissivity, which means it let in a lot of heat. Installing window tinting that blocks 99% of ultraviolet rays, and 41% of solar heat helped lower the lobby’s average summer temperature from 73-78°F down to 69-74°F.
Overall, these energy-saving upgrades have lowered the Conference Center’s average electricity bill to around $6,000 a month, with summer peaks now at $9,000— saving the City of Hurst about $50,000 per year.
Excellent work to all involved in receiving this welldeserved recognition!

Staff launches in-house CDL training program
Beginning in 2022, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration implemented new Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) requirements that impacted all municipalities in the state of Texas. With the changes that included a stricter training and certification process, many of our municipal neighbors resorted to using third-party driving schools to help replenish their vacant CDL drivers.
At costs up to $6,000 per candidate, the financial impact on a city budget is staggering. All cities use CDL drivers to operate large vehicles safely, and the constant demand for CDL operators is an ongoing challenge for all municipalities. Faced with a need for these drivers and the new regulations to contend with, staff proposed facilitating its own CDL Driver Training, closely following trainer provider regulations.
Enter Parker Paris, a Service Center employee who had built quite the reputation for assisting candidates in passing the difficult skills tests given
at the time by the Department of Public Safety.
Volunteering his experience and ability to connect with the candidates, Parker researched all of the requirements to become a Training Provider and completed the required training and registration. Parker designed a training program in conjunction with the required curriculum and began training City of Hurst CDL candidates soon after. Parker facilitates all of the training while still tending to his regular scope of duties as a Water Production Crew Leader.
To date, the Hurst CDL Program has graduated 15 drivers successfully. Our most recent graduates have worked hard to attain their operator’s license.
Congratulations to all involved; we are proud of the teamwork, dedication, positive attitude, and professionalism shown by all of our team members!

Students aid in design of new coffee shop
Vacant donut shop transformed through partnership
We’re thrilled to announce a meaningful partnership with Hurst-Euless-Bedford ISD and 6 Stones to transform the vacant donut shop at 420 W. Pipeline Rd. into a unique sit-down and drive-thru coffee shop—one with a purpose beyond serving great coffee.
Our community asked for a local, non-chain option, and we’re delivering! The vision was sparked when we connected with a coffee shop owner who was passionate about creating opportunities for students and young adults who learn differently. After collaborating with HEB ISD Superintendent Joe Harrington and the Director of Special Education for HEB ISD, this vision is becoming a reality. Many
of the new employees will come from HEB ISD’s Moving into Adult Roles and Communities(MARC) program, bringing vital life skills and community engagement to Hurst.
We’re taking this space down to the studs to ensure a fully updated, welcoming environment—and we’re thrilled to have students from HEB ISD’s Architectural and Interior Design Program involved in crafting the floor plan. This project is more than a renovation; it’s a chance to serve our community in a meaningful way.
Stay tuned as we bring this vision to life!
