​​Migratory Bird Awareness:  Help prevent your property from becoming a nesting site​​

Migratory birds, such as herons, egrets and other waterbirds, are often seen in Texas during their annual migration between the U.S. and Canada. These birds can bring a number of challenges during nesting/breeding season such as noise, odor, and health hazards including significant amounts of excrement. Residents may find it offensive when the birds' chosen nesting areas are near their homes and businesses.

Once eggs are laid, these birds are federally protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918, preventing interference of any kind by residents or the City of Coppell. However, there are some actions residents can take before and after breeding season to deter the birds from nesting in the area.

 What can you do before nesting season begins? (Typically January – March)​

• Be on the look out for "sentry" birds — the first birds to arrive looking for ideal nesting sites for the flock. Report sightings to your neighbors and to the City of Coppell by contacting Luay Rahil, Environmental Health Officer, at lrahil@coppelltx.gov or 972-462-5164. 
  
• Familiarize yourself with the different migratory birds found in Texas. Each species has a different breeding period. See pictures below of birds common to this area with basic descriptions along with breeding months.
  
• Use a combination of scare tactics BEFORE eggs are laid such as hanging helium balloons or other moving objects in trees, disturbing early nesting material with long poles, tennis balls or water spray and using noisemakers to deter the birds.
  
• Please take care while using scare tactics. DO NOT kill or injure the birds.
  ​

What can you do during nesting season? (Typically March – October)

• Once birds begin sitting on nests, eggs are probably present. Do not kill, harass, relocate, move or attempt to scare away the birds by any means during nesting season. These birds are federally protected.
  

What can you do if a rookery (group nesting site) is established?

• Continue normal maintenance of your property including mowing and watering without intentionally disturbing the birds or their nests.
  
• Regularly power wash or spray down your sidewalks, patios and other affected areas to clear away bird waste.
  
• Do not attempt to handle birds. If you see a dead bird, please contact Coppell Animal Services at 972-304-3515 and they will pick it up.

What can you do after nesting season has ended? (Typically October – January)

• Remove old nests from trees.
  
• Give trees a good trim and thin the tree canopy to allow sunlight between limbs and other trees.
  
• Help out elderly neighbors or those with special needs with nest clean up and tree trimming.
  
• Be aware and report these bird sightings in late winter/early spring to the City of Coppell. They may not seem like a problem at the time, but they can settle in anywhere and become a nuisance quickly!​
  

​Contact Information For questions, bird sightings in trees, and general information regarding migratory birds, contact: Luay Rahil, Environmental Health Officer at lrahil@coppelltx.gov or 972-462-5164, or Charlene Lovato, Animal Serv​ices Manager at CLovato@coppelltx.gov or 972-462-5313 To report dead or injured birds, contact: Coppell Animal Services at 972-304-3515 For additional information, contact: ​Texas Parks and Wildlife Department Urban Wildlife Biologist at 972-293-3841, or U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services Division of Migratory Bird Management at 703-358-1714

City of Coppell water utility customers will soon start seeing their water meters replaced as part of the City's Advanced Water Meter System project, a new service enhancement initiative to install advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) throughout the community. The city-wide installation of 13,375 new meters is projected to take 14 months. Once installed, the new meter system will provide customers with more accurate water usage data that is updated multiple times throughout the day, water budget and water consumption threshold alerts, comparative data, leak alerts and notifications from the City. Consumption data will be updated on an internet-based customer dashboard that can be accessed from a computer, tablet or smart phone. 

City Manager Mike Land explained how the Advanced Water Meter System project is part of the City's larger efforts to utilize technology to become what is referred to in the marketplace as a "Smart City."

"We are actively looking for ways to use data and technology to enhance our customer experience, City's services, livability and sustainability," he said. "The Advanced Water Meter System project aligns perfectly with these goals."

With the Advanced Water Meter System, Coppell residents will have access to data that will give them an increased understanding of their water consumption. In turn, City staff will be better equipped to assist customers.

"If someone calls and they don't believe that they used that much water, right now the only thing we can do is go out and look at the meter to see if they have a leak or have the meter tested," said Kim Tiehen, Assistant Director of Finance for the City of Coppell. "With this technology, we're going to be able to show them what is happening with their consumption. They're going to be able to graph it, and they're going to be able to see it. This will allow us to provide a level of customer service that was unattainable before."

Currently, the City uses three types of metering systems and multiple meter brands. This variability poses operational challenges for City staff. The Advanced Meter System project will include one type of system and one brand for all meters, which will better equip City staff to maintain operations, manage inventory, and provide all customers with the same level of customer service.

Once the meters are installed and customers start accessing the data from their new meters, the information will allow them to more closely monitor their water consumption and adjust their usage accordingly. In turn, it will provide the City more accurate utility analytics and customer consumption data, better meter data management, increased customer transparency, a reduction in water loss, a reduction in labor costs, a baseline for distribution leak detection and the ability to send alerts and messages to customers. In short, customers will be given the tools and data they need to better plan and "Get to Know Your H₂0."

The City utilized performance contracting to partner with Siemens, who studied the City's current system and developed a design build program to install the advanced meters. According to Tiehen, the Advanced Water Meter System project will increase the accuracy of meter reads and actual water consumption, which will provide the City with higher revenues without increasing water rates. The additional funding, along with the operational savings, will fund the project over the next 15 years. Additionally, the City will be able to reduce the costs associated with the current meter-reading process.

"The City currently sends out designated employees to manually read meters," said Tiehen. "The automated process will allow us to reduce the cost – both in dollars and time – of reading meters."

Coppell City Council approved the $6.8 million Advanced Water Meter System project at the April 24, 2018 meeting, and the funding was secured as part of the July 24, 2018 Certificate of Obligation issuance. 

Crews will begin installing new meters soon, notifying residents and businesses days in advance with door hangers and other communications. Concurrently, City representatives will begin educating customers on how to use the internet-based dashboard.​

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​      ​      ​

​

Once your water meter is replaced, residents will find a yellow door hanger on their door notifying them that they received a new water meter. The door hanger provides information concerning steps to take prior to using their water. If you run a business, the water meter team will coordinate a convenient time to replace each businesses water meter. Each business will be provided with a door hanger when their meter is replaced.

How will I know that someone is a member of the water meter team? 
The truck used by the water meter team will have a "water meter team" sticker on its door. Team members will be wearing bright yellow shirts with "PMI" on the front left corner of the shirt and will also have a picture ID badge with them. The badge also provides two phone numbers for the citizen to call to confirm the identity of the person. One phone number will contact the Utility Billing number, and the other number connects to the PMI 24-hour line. Water meter team supervisors will be wearing a bright yellow safety vest with "Water Meter Team Supervisor" printed on the back of the vest.

Water team members are not allowed to enter homes, and your property will be left in the same condition as it was prior to installation.
