BEAR CREEK COMMUNITY HISTORIC MARKER DEDICATION

City Officials, historic preservationists and community members gathered in the city of Grand Prairie Bear Creek South Park, 3420 Gilbert Circle, in September to dedicate a historic marker honoring the Bear Creek Community, celebrating freedom, unity, history and community.

In far north Grand Prairie in the Shady Grove Road and Beltline Road area, settlers began arriving in the 1850s in what was once a part of Robertson’s Colony and is now Bear Creek (Irving)/Shady Grove (Grand Prairie). Early families included the Casters, Borahs, Sowers and Haleys. Following the Civil War, freedmen moved to the area, and friends and families once separated by slavery reconnected. Jim Green, the first African American landowner in the Bear Creek community, bought his acreage in 1878. Others soon followed: Jim Chivers, Ben and Rose Dilworth, Alex King, Elizabeth Lawson, Collins and Rachel Patton, D.W. Ellison (Ellerson), Sam Sweat, the Trigg family, Minnie Shelton (Sheldon), who later donated land for Shelton’s Bear Creek Cemetery; Coble/Cable,

Jackson, Jones, Lowe, Motens and Riley families; and the Rogers family, who donated the land for the Mt. Elam Baptist Church in 1881. Many of families organized the Shady Grove Christian Methodist Episcopal Church in 1884, erecting a one-room church and school building on land donated by Jim Green. The Bear Creek community school, known as Freedom School, began as a private education facility. The students later transferred to Grand Prairie’s Dalworth school. Freedom School was annexed into the Irving Independent School District in 1955. Early teachers in the Bear Creek settlement included Josie Davis and Earlie Mae Wheeler. Approximately 150 years after the first settlers came to the area, the once rural Bear Creek settlement experienced rapid growth from Dallas-Fort Worth airport and highway expansions

A state marker resides at the Jackie Townsell Bear Creek Heritage Center at 3925 Jackson Street.

PRAIRIE PAWS' TNR PROGRAM

Community cats is an umbrella term for feral, stray, alley, and/or otherwise ownerless free-roaming cats. Healthy community cats have a caregiver and may be valued by multiple residents of the neighborhood. In areas with substantial populations of unaltered cats, colonies will likely form. Colonies can grow drastically in number in a relatively short period of time. In seven years a pair of cats and their offspring can yield 42,000 cats.

In order to humanely decrease the stray cat populations, Grand Prairie Animal Services and volunteers coordinate a free community cat fix program called “Trap-Neuter-Return” (TNR).

The TNR program involves: 1. trapping all or most of the cats in a colony

2. getting them sterilized and 3. releasing them.

Cats returned to the community are tipped on the left ear to identify them as sterilized.

Once fixed, these cats will be better neighbors. They will not be as likely to engage in problem behaviors like yowling, fighting, or spraying. Best of all, they will not be reproducing and increasing the number of homeless cats.

How can you help?

If you see a community cat without a tipped ear, bring it in to GPAS so they can be spayed or neutered.

For more information visit gptx.org/paws.

SHORT TERM RENTALS

REQUIRE A PERMIT

All short-term rental operators are required to obtain a permit from the city annually and pay hotel occupancy taxes. This includes homes or other units, such as a garage apartment or backyard cottage, listed for rent on Airbnb, VRBO, HomeAway, and similar websites.

A short-term rental means the use of a residential unit for its intended purpose for a tenancy of 30 or fewer consecutive calendar days for a fee. If your rental is being rented for more than 30 days at a time but you are advertising your property as available to rent for short-term (i.e. on a "nightly basis"), then you still must obtain a Short-Term Rental Permit.

The Short-Term Rental Permit fee is $480. This fee is nonrefundable and is due with the online application. The property owner is required to notify neighbors within 200 feet; enforce an occupancy limit of one person per 200 square feet with a maximum of 12 persons; and provide proof of host protection or liability insurance that provides coverage of up to $1 million, among other requirements.

To apply for a permit or more information, visit gptx.org/Departments/CodeCompliance/Short-term-Rentals/ShortTerm-Rental-Permits

HIGHER HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION, LOWER PROPERTY TAX FOR GRAND PRAIRIE RESIDENTS IN 2023

A higher Homestead exemption and a lower property tax were approved by the City Council for residents in 2023 and are part of the city’s 2022-2023 budget.

The Grand Prairie City Council reduced the city’s portion of property tax rate by a half cent from $0.664998 to $0.66/$100 of valuation and raised the homestead exemption from 10% to 12.5% or $5,000 (whichever is greater) effective in 2023. A homestead exemption lowers the taxable value of your home, which reduces the amount of tax you pay.

When you pay your city property taxes, don’t forget about all the services you receive. The city’s portion of property tax on a home valued at $235,000 home is about $1,370 per year, or $3.75 a day. For less than lunch, you get:

❱ 24/7 police protection

❱ 24/7 fire protection

❱ 24/7 ambulance service

❱ New and well-maintained streets, sidewalks, signs, streetlights and signals

❱ A growth strategy including economic development, city planning, permits, engineering, inspections and code compliance

❱ More than 70 amazing public parks, pools, trails and recreation centers

❱ Free and equal access to all at the award-winning Library system, where we educate everyone

❱ A strong digital backbone with an open, transparent, and accessible government

❱ And more.

Check your county appraisal district website to make sure you’re saving the most money possible with a homestead exemption. And, if you are age 65 or older on Jan. 1, be sure to file for the property tax senior freeze that keeps the amount you pay from ever increasing.

What Your Property Tax Dollars

ACCESS HOURLY WATER USE WITH H2Know

A 21st century network of water meters and communication devices will now allow you, our customers, to monitor and manage water usage from an online customer portal accessible from both personal computers and mobile devices. The new system, named H2Know, measures and transmits hourly water usage data — older systems could only provide a single monthly usage total.

With the new system, you will have the power to:

› Receive automatic alerts of higher than normal usage spikes within a day of their occurrence

› Receive automatic alerts of longterm continuous usage (indicating possible leaks)

› Establish a monthly “water budget” and be alerted when you reach or exceed your target

› Monitor usage patterns such as irrigation to better manage the frequency and duration of watering

› Save water and save money!

This system will also help the city find and repair its own leaks, better manage its Water Conservation Programs and provide more useful information when you contact us with questions. To access H2Know, you will have to register and we are eager to help you get connected.

For information, please call our Customer Care Center at 972-237-8200 or email waterbilling@gptx.org.

Schedule Your Fitness Assessment

What is a Fitness Assessment?

A fitness assessment is a test or measurement completed by a professional to get health information about a client to determine your current level of fitness.

Why do a Fitness Assessment?

There are many reasons why fitness assessments are important. They do not take a lot of time to complete but can provide a wealth of information. Assessments serve as a baseline measurement that trainers and clients can use to build an effective program and to compare results over a period of time.

The InBody 570

An Epic Fitness Assessment includes the use of the InBody 570 Composition Analyzer.

45-Second Tests

Quickly measure fat mass, muscle mass, and body water. Auto-calibrated, userfriendly, and non-invasive, testing is fast and easy—just stand on the device and hold the hand electrodes.

No Empirical Estimations

No empirical estimations based on age, sex, ethnicity, or body type. Instead, Direct Segmental Multi-Frequency BIA technology measures body segments separately for an accurate analysis based on your unique body.

Advanced Outputs

Get essential outputs for evaluating overall health and wellness. Draw more insights from additional metrics like Visceral Fat Level and Segmental Fat Analysis, track progress, validate programs, and deliver actionable advice backed by trustworthy data.

Result Sheet

Every InBody Test includes a full-page Result Sheet printout that details muscle, fat, and water measurements and highlights specific areas to focus on.
