Engineers Hashing Out Site Details for Starbucks in Sulphur Springs
Engineers for Starbucks and the City Engineer for Sulphur Springs are currently hashing out site details that will enable the building of a local outlet for the purveyor of coffee on South Broadway in the city, according to a city source. Although no date for construction has been set, the city and Starbucks are taking steps to facilitate a good relationship.
This is just another hurdle that has not deterred the determination to locate the popular coffee brand locally. It all began with a sign. Sulphur Springs Zoning Board of Adjustments was asked to approve a sign ordinance variance for the property located at 1320 South Broadway. The approval of the sign opened the door for further steps to be taken. The property owners at 1320 South Broadway sought the variance to the city sign ordinance. The sign will stand 85 ft. high. The city sign ordinance, as written, allows signs to be only 24 feet high. City staff favored the variance and no property owners around the property opposed. The approval given for the sign is contingent on the lot being plotted and building permit for Starbucks issued.
The second hurdle is currently under construction. A sewer project approved by the city council on Mockingbird Lane between Furr’s and EZ-Mart that would divert wastewater flow from three fast food restaurants and one apartment away from the Mockingbird sewer main and toward the trunk line that parallels South Town Branch. The new line will also carry flow from any new development south and east of Chili’s. That includes the Starbucks location. This project has begun, and it is progressing from east to west. So far, the city has installed 168’ of sewer line starting at the eastern boundary of the Furr’s property, and has recently finished installing a manhole in the EZ-Mart driveway approach. The work continues on this project.
Other issues that are faced continue to be addressed but the city and Starbucks continue to be determined to bring the coffee purveyor to South Broadway.
City Manager’s Report: Sewer Improvement Will Assist Development On South Broadway, Shannon Rd
EZ MART SEWER PROJECT – At a previous meeting, the city council approved a sewer project on Mockingbird Lane between Furr’s and EZ-Mart that would divert wastewater flow from three fast food restaurants and one apartment away from the Mockingbird sewer main and toward the trunk line that parallels South Town Branch. The new line would also carry flow from any new development south and east of Chili’s. This project has begun, and it is progressing from east to west. So far, we have installed 168’ of sewer line starting at the eastern boundary of the Furr’s property, and we just finished installing a manhole in the EZ-Mart driveway approach. Next we will cross Mockingbird and continue to the west.
STREETS, WATER AND SEWER – Bill Bradford Road is progressing slowly but steadily. Utilities work continues from west to east. The road is closed to through traffic, but open to customers of the businesses located in the closed portion of the road, namely Village Pawn and Gun Shop and Sulphur Springs Floral Etc.
This $1.4 million project includes water and sewer utilities, underground drainage on the western end of the street and complete reconstruction of the street. Previously I reported that the street would be paved in asphalt with 500’ feet of concrete at both ends. Staff is presently evaluating whether to construct the entire street with concrete. We recently got a great bid on concrete on Rockdale Road, and the contractor who performed the work did a good job. We are going to bid the job both ways and bring it to the City Council at a future meeting.
DAVIS/TOMLINSON PARKING LOT – Demolition has begun. Construction will begin on the south side of the project and progress to the north. Doing it this way will preserve some of the parking throughout the project for nearby businesses.
JEFFERSON STREET PARKING LOT – This is a County project at the northeast corner of Jefferson and Rosemont. The new lot will have 77 spaces. The County is constructing the lot in concrete and the City is installing lights and landscaping per our earlier agreement at the time the tax increment reinvestment zone was created. When the County opted into the zone, the City committed to beautification of the lot when it was built.
SPRING CLEANUP – Spring cleanup is in full swing. Saturday will be the last day. The location is the same as previous years, ¼ mile east of Flowserve on Industrial Drive. It is open to city residents only. Residents should bring their water bill and ID. Hours are from 7 am to 7 pm. No household hazardous waste is accepted; no tires, batteries, chemicals, or anything with refrigerant in it.
CLAIMS – We had one workers’ compensation claim in March for a knee injury. The incident has not resulted in any lost time.
We had three liability claims in March, two claiming damage to a structure from wastewater overflows and one claiming damage to an automobile from a pothole. All three were submitted to TML. All three were denied.
We were served one lawsuit in March.
POLICE DEPARTMENT REMODEL – This project is completed. The Police Department has moved in, and the temporary trailers are gone.
WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT – Total suspended solids (TSS) came in at 7.74 mg/L, well within the limit of 15 mg/L.
REVENUES AND EXPENDITURES – Finance Director, Peter Karstens will present a year-to-date summary of revenues and expenditures.
Elsewhere around the city, employees:
- Fertilized all athletic fields in preparation for spring youth athletic programs.
- Mowed the airport, library grounds, Pacific Park, senior citizens building grounds, Buford Park, Coleman Park, and the north side of Coleman Lake.

Ole Miss Commit Blackmon Top Medalist as Wildcats’ Golf Advances to Regional; Lady Cats Fail to Advance
Led by Ole Miss commit Brody Blackmon, the Wildcats’ golf team rallied on the second day of the District Golf Tournament to qualify for the regional tournament. Blackmon, who was in second place as Tuesday’s second round got under, fired a 68 for a two day total of 140 to win top medalist honors by six strokes.
The Wildcats began Tuesday in third place at 316, five strokes behind second place Longview. Only the top two teams qualify for regional. On Tuesday the Wildcats out shot the Lobos, 316 to 326 to take second place by five strokes. Texas High finished first by 18 strokes.
Besides Blackmon’s 72 and 68 for 140 score, Matt Calhoun had a 76 and 80 for 156. Alex Motes carded 79 and 86 for 165. Cameron Lewis and Carter Lewis both showed lots of second day improvement. Cameron Lewis shot 89 and 83 for 172 and Carter Lewis had 91 and 85 for 176.
The regional tournament takes place next Monday and Tuesday once again at the Rockwall Golf and Athletic Club, site of the district tournament.
The Lady Cats’ golf team struggled for two days during the district tournament at Rockwall Golf and Athletic Club Monday and Tuesday. In the end, the Lady Cats shot 455 and 477 for a two-day total of 932. They ended up in fifth place. Jessie Ash led the way for the Lady Cats with a 108 and 110 for a total of 218. Alissa Sotelo shot 114 and 120 for 234. Morgan Landers fired 124 and 113 for 237 and Emma Lane had 131 and 134 for 265. Hallsville and Pine Tree qualified for the regional tournament.
Six Runs in the Sixth Provide Lady Cats Sixth Win in District
When the Marshall Lady Mavericks scored four runs in the top of the fifth inning to take a 7-5 come from behind lead over the Lady Cats’ softball team Tuesday night at Lady Cat Park, one might think back to the similar recent 8-7 loss to Pine Tree. Fortunately the Lady Cats erased all that as they exploded for six big runs in the bottom of the sixth inning on their way to an 11-7 win.
The Lady Cats outhit the Lady Mavs 16 to 10. Kristen Allen had two big hits and drove home six runs. Sadie Stroud had two hits and 2 RBIs. Hannah Crowson also had two hits. Landri Bell went most of the way in the circle and Sarah Womack finished up including a strong seventh inning.
The Lady Cats are now 6-3 in district play and 22-5 for the season. They will travel to Texas High Friday night.
Tough Night for Wildcats Baseball
The Wildcats’ baseball team slipped to 2-5 in district play after a 6-0 loss to Marshall at Eagle Stadium Tuesday night.
The Wildcats managed only four hits. Mason Buck had a three-hit night with a double and two singles while Ryan Humphries added a single. The Wildcats left six runners on base.They ended the game with five consecutive strikeouts. Marshall scored three runs in the top of the fifth inning and three more in the sixth.
Tyler Follis took the pitching loss for the Wildcats. The Wildcats are now 5-10-1 for the season. They’ll begin the second half Friday night as they host Texas High at Eagle Stadium.
Lady Cats’ Season Ends at Regional Quarterfinal; A Grand Run
An historic Lady Cats’ soccer season came to an end Tuesday night in Terrell as the Lady Cats lost to Mansfield Legacy, 2-0 in a regional quarterfinal game. The two teams battled for over 72-scoreless minutes before the Lady Broncos finally got on the scoreboard at the 7:32 mark of the second half. With the Lady Cats pushing to tie the score, Mansfield Legacy tacked on a second goal at 3:48.
This year’s Lady Cats’ team is expected to be remembered not for a regional quarterfinal loss but for getting there in the first place. To do so, the Lady Cats won their first ever playoff game and got past the Area round for the first time ever. Of the players on the playoff roster, only one starter will graduate. Everybody else returns. The Lady Cats end the season with a 19-7-1 record. Their 8-5-1 district mark was good enough for a third place finish.
