SUBJECT: Approve a name for the Library at Legends Hall
Action Requested: City Council consideration of the suggested name, "Dick McCauley
Library," for the library within the Senior Lounge in Legends Hall at
The Marq Southlake.
Background
Information: On January 12, 2016, the Senior Advisory Commission
unanimously approved a recommendation to City Council to name
the library the "Dick McCauley Library." The name was submitted to
honor Mr. McCauley's many contributions to help seniors in
Southlake and his leadership and support for the new senior center
at The Marq Southlake. A copy of the submittal form is attached for
City Council consideration.
Naming the library in honor of Mr. McCauley complies with
guidelines of the City's "Naming and Renaming of Park and
Recreation Facilities Procedures." Provisions of the guideline
include:
■ A park and recreation facility may be named for outstanding
and/or predominate physical characteristics or ecological
features of the land such as:
■ Streams, lakes and creeks
■ Landmark significance
■ Historical significance
■ Street name identity
■ The subdivision in which the park property is located
■ Based on the activity, event or function of the park
■ A park facility may be named for any group or individual who
has made exceptional contributions to the City.
■ A park facility may be named in honor of a deceased local,
state, national figure(s).

■ There shall be a waiting period of one or more years prior to the
naming of a park in honor of a deceased local, state or national
figure(s).
■ The renaming of a park facility, which has been previously
named after an individual, is prohibited unless compelling
circumstances arise whereby consideration to a change is
appropriate.
■ No park shall be given the same name as an existing school
site, or public facility, except where the sites abut one another.
■ Components or areas within a park or recreation facility may be
given a name which is different than the park or recreation
facility. Such components or areas may include, but are not
limited to, gardens, playgrounds, athletic fields, structures and
meeting rooms.
Mr. McCauley served on the Senior Advisory Commission from
2008 until his death in April 2014. Among his many contributions is
his leadership in setting up a non-profit organization, Southlake
Senior Funding, Inc., to provide financial sponsorships through
fundraising efforts for many of the senior programs and events to
date. Mr. McCauley also worked with sponsors and the City to
acquire the 22-seat bus used for senior field trips. Mr. McCauley's
determination and efforts for the new senior center is well-known in
the senior community and the community at-large.
Financial
Considerations: Approval of a name for the Library will have no financial impact.
Strategic Link: Approval of this item is linked to the City's Strategy Map related to
the focus area of Partnerships & Volunteerism and meets the
