ED HOUSEWRIGHT / The Dallas Morning News ehousewright u clalli~sne~~ y.com Keith Andresen has a good description of hockey: "The hand-eye coordination of baseball, the strategy of basketball and the physical play of football - all on ice," said Andresen, who works at the Dr Pepper StarCenter in Eiiless. McKiriney residents will soon get a chance to watch and play amateur hockey, a spoit booming in North Texas, without leaving town. City Council made a courageous, and correct, decision to proceed with plans to build a Dr Pepper StarCenter in McKinney. The politically safe choice would have been to keep the project on ice. The council delayed the $13.2 million, taxpayer-funded center in Novenlber because of rising costs. In this doom-and-gloom economy, council members could justifL holding on to every cent But, instead, they squeezed inoney froin the Stars organization and local developer David Craig to cover the rising costs and make the pro-ject happen. Constn~ctioil is scheduled to be colnpleted Oct. I. "We'll pick up some sales-tax dollars," said McKinney Mayor Pro Teln Bill Cox. "It can generate inore traffic in McKinney, more hotel stays, inore f~iel sales." McKiilney desperately needs the StarCenter to stay competitive. Both Frisco and Plailo already have one, and they are hubs of activity. The StarCenters often open at 6 a.m. with youth hockey practice and close at midnigl~t with an adult hockey game. In between, you'll see figure skaters perfectiilg their skills and beginners just learning to stay upright. StarCenters also host birthday parties, meetings, concerts and gymnastic competitions. They're a safe, fiin place for people of all ages. "It's alinost like a mini-mall," said John McManainan, hockey director of the Frisco StarCenter. The first StarCenter opened in Euless a decade ago. Others soon followed in Du~lcanville and Farmers Branch, as well as Frisco and Plano.

"The bottom of the pyramid has been growing every year - the 4- to 6-year-olds and 7- to 8-year-olds," he said. I recently dropped by the Plano StarCenter over lunch. Twice a week, it holds adult "drop-in" games, akin to pickup basketball games. The guys divide into two teams and have good-natured competition. I watched for an hour and didn't see fights (unlike some pro games), trash talking or taunting. I was surprised by the speed and grace of the players, even at this level. You can't really appreciate hockey by watching it on TV or sitting up in the rafters. In the adult leagues at the StarCenters, players are grouped by age and skill level. Checking, or slamming an opponent against the boards, isn't allowed. "We want to make sure everybody can get up and go to work the next day," Andresen said. I was amazed when he said sotne people play until they're 60 "You're never really too old," Andresen said. "Hockey players are hockey players for life." Even adults like me, who have never held a hockey stick, can learn to play. Thanks, but I'll let the youngsters learn. And they do "It's like riding a bike," Andresen said. "It doesn't take long."

Phil King, R- Weatherford, who sponsored the initial legislation to estab- lish the water district. King has filed bills that would Exempt fire depart- ments from the new water fees - - though the Upper Trinity board has already voted to ex- empt fire departments. He has also filed legislation requiring the water district to post its check transactions on its Web site. King said the dis- trict wasn't created to levy fees on municip~ties' ,water sup- plies. Instead, it was designed to deal with large commercial wells and had power to charge fees to gas drillers, he said. "Nobody has shown that there is a need for this regula- tion," he said. Patterson has heard the complaints but insists that the district is fulfilling its mission and needs to make residents understand that .preserving groundwater is a mandate. "There are some pedple that do not understand the principle of water conserva- -titipn or what the state of Texas is trying to accomplish and what the water development board has set out," Patterson said. ~~atchiork quilts The Northern Trinity Ground- water District in Tarrant County is in its embryonic stages. In an urban county where post residents and businesses use surface water, groundwater isn't irrelevant: More than 20 cities and small water providers use it during peak usage. "The biggest problem actu- ally is funding," said Jim Oli- ver, director of the groundwa- ter district and also general manager of the region's prima- ry water source, the Tarrant Regional Water District. "You have to go out and levy fees without knowing who you are levying fees on." Last month, the Texas Commission on Environmen- tal Quality proposed an eight- county district that would run from Cooke County at the Oklahoma border through Dallas County and then south- west to Johnson County. But even before commis- sioners approved the district, many counties were seeking to break off from it. For example, Dallas County could end up with Tarrant, Oli- ver said, because Grand Prai- rie has wells in both counties. Environmental Quality Commissioner Larry Soward of Austin lamented the state's "patchwork quilt" approach to groundwater conservatio~. "1 think if this state is ever to tm- ly manage its aquifers, we're going to have to get away from county-by-county groundwa- ter districts," Soward said dm- ing the meeting. Oliver agrees. "I think it's just intercounty politics," he said. "If YOU look at it from a pure science standpoint, they probably all need to be in one district. It just makes sense from economies of scale." A commission executive or- der prepared for the Feb. 11 meeting said North Central Texas counties and others "ate- experiencing, or are expected to experience critical ground: water problems in 'the next 25 years." It also said that "water-user groups in Ellis, Johnson and Tarrant counties, collectively, are using the Trinity Aquifer at quantities over regional plan- ning groups' estimates for the. safe supply for each county". and that "water-user groups in Collin, Cooke, Dallas, Denton, Fannin, Grayson, Hood, Park- er and Wise counties" are us- ing the aquifer "near each county's estimated safe sup- ply." State law requires that de- sired future conditions must be set for the state's major and minor aquifers by Sept. 1, 2010, and then must be updat- ed every five years.
