CONSIDER RESOLUTION APPROVING THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE CONTRACT AMENDMENT NUMBER THREE TO THE STANDARD FORM OF AGREEMENT ARE FQ 200011 WITH BROWN REYNOLDS ARCHITECT INC FOR ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING DESIGN SERVICES FOR FIRE STATION NUMBER ONE TO AN INCREASE IN THE GUARANTEED MAXIMUM PRICE FROM 4.5 MILLION TO 7.591908. ANY AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $197,000. SO THIS AMENDMENT THREE AS PROPOSED TO INCREASE THIS IS THE CONTRACT NOT TO THE ACTUAL CONSTRUCTION MANAGER AT RISK,

[00:05:02]

ESCALATION EXPERIENCED LAST YEAR. THEREFORE THE RW PROPOSED A DISCOUNT IN THEIR SERVICE OF $197,000. SO. GO AHEAD. FANTASTIC QUESTION AND JUST THEY $197,000 IS NOT A CHANGE ORDER.

THIS INCREASE IN SERVICES IS COUPLED WITH THE COST OF THE PROJECT, WHICH WE KEPT SO THEY MOVE LIKE THIS. AND AS WE KEPT AS WE THE COUNCIL CAPTAINS PROJECT, THEN THEY HAVE THE ABILITY LEGAL ABILITY TO GO AHEAD AND INCREASE THEIR SERVICES, WHICH THEY DIDN'T.

THAT'S WHERE THIS $197,000 CAME FROM, AND THAT'S WHY I READ THIS, AND THAT'S THE QUESTION.

CITY MANAGER DID COVER IT. SO THESE THINGS ARE COUPLED ALL THE WAY UP. SO BUT IF THIS POINT THAT WE CANNOT EXPECT ANY FURTHER INCREASES IN THEIR SERVICES BECAUSE GETTING THERE KEPT OUT, THEY GAVE US A BIG DISCOUNT, WHICH WE GREATLY APPRECIATE THEIR SERVICES ARE NOW KEPT UP WITH THE ADDITION OF THE 1 97. WE NEGOTIATED, NEGOTIATED MR COONS? YES, QUESTION ABOUT IS THAT ARTICLE OF WEAPON IS THAT THAT STAND FOR THESE KINDS OF CONTRACTS AND DO THEY, BUT THEY NEVER SPECIFY. IT GOES BEYOND THAT GMP. IS THIS WASN'T IT CAN INCREASE. AT WORK AND JUST BE INCREASING OUR MATERIALS, RIGHT? SO IN THAT ARTICLE LED HIM TO ME THIS QUESTION STANDARD. UM COST OF THE ARCHITECTURAL. PROVISION IN THESE TYPES OF CONTRACT THAT THEY FOLLOW WHENEVER GUARANTEED. MAXIMUM PRICE IS AH! WHERE WE NEGOTIATED WITH THEM. THE FACT THAT THERE WAS A SPIKE IT WAS REALLY CAUSED BY COVID MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE IN THIS PIE CHAIN.

SO THAT'S WHY WE'RE GOING TO GET THAT CAMERA. NORMALLY IT WOULD NOT NECESSARILY BE CAPPED, FOLLOWED COST GUARANTEED RIGHT? ALRIGHT LET'S BE ONE ITEM FOR THIS IS CONSIDERED RESOLUTION APPROVING THE LANDSCAPE MAKE DISAGREEMENT WITH THE TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION TAX DOT THE LANDSCAPE IMPROVEMENTS ALONG U S. I H 20, BEGINNING AT NORTH CEDAR RIDGE DRIVE AND ENDING THE EAST NORTH SERIOUS DRIVE IN 2021, THE GOVERNOR COMMUNITY ACHIEVEMENT AWARDED TO KEEP DR GO BEAUTIFUL WITH $210,000 FOR A LANDSCAPING PROJECT. ON JUNE 7TH 2022 COUNCIL APPROVED THE LANDSCAPING ENHANCEMENT ALONG I 20 AND CEDAR RIDGE ROAD COUNCIL RESOLUTION IS REQUIRED TO ENTER INTO THE LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT L M A WITH TECH STOCKS FOR MAINTAINING THE LAST VEHICLE ASSOCIATED WITH THE LANDSCAPE PROJECT. THE CITY HAS AGREED TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR MAINTAINING THE LANDSCAPE ENHANCEMENT. FUNDING FOR THE MAINTENANCE HAS BEEN INCLUDED IN THE 2022 23 BUDGET IF THE CITY DECIDES TO ENHANCE THE LANDSCAPE PROJECT IN THE FINAL DESIGN PHASE IN THE CITY WOULD BE REQUIRED TO ENTER INTO AN ADVANCED FUNDING AGREEMENT WITH TEXTILE OR ADDITIONAL ENHANCEMENTS. THIS IS THE PROJECT THAT WHEN WE WERE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO DECIDE WHERE WE WANT IT TO FUND CAME IN . WE SELECT THAT PROJECT BUT AS AN AGREEMENT WITH TECH STOCK PROVIDES FUNDING WE ARE THEN REQUIRED TO DO THE MAINTENANCE WANT TO DO THE BEAUTIFUL LANDSCAPING AND THAT'S TYPICAL OF OUR PROJECTS THAT ACTUALLY GIVES US MORE CONTROL AND MAINTENANCE BECAUSE WE'RE NOT ON TEXT DOT SCHEDULED FOR MAINTENANCE AND PUTS IT ON OUR SCHEDULE AND BECOMES OUR RESPONSIBILITY SO OKAY?

BASED ON THEIR PROVIDER, INABILITY TO HIRE AND RETAIN EMPLOYEES AND TO PAY AND THERE WAS NOT A DECISION THAT ANYBODY COULD LIKE TO COME TO THE CITY OF IRVINGTON MAKING THAT DECISION AND I THINK THAT WE AS A CITY OF DUNCANVILLE AND WE CITIZENS ARE BLESSED.

PURCHASING THIS IS SOMETHING WE DO COMMONLY, IT GIVES US AN OPPORTUNITY TO BENEFIT FROM NEGOTIATED RATES BY OTHER COMMUNITIES PROBABLE AND OUTSIDE OF OUR STATE. GET BETTER PRICING HAD A QUESTION ON THIS ONE TURNED BLOATING.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH, MR. OKAY VERY GOOD. ALRIGHT SORRY. FINISHES UP OUR CONSENT ITEM DISCUSSIONS. OKAY, ABSOLUTELY GOING TO ITEM TWO. A DISCUSSING FINALIZED THE COUNCIL RULES PROCEDURES CITY MANAGER THIS OVER I'M GOING TO ASK MR KEYES, WHO'S BEEN WORKING ON THIS AND I'LL BE HERE TO SUPPORT QUESTIONS. I DID RECEIVE SOME FEEDBACK, WHICH WILL BE INCORPORATED IN YOUR CONVERSATIONS. THANK YOU MARY COUNCIL ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER.

YOU CAN DO THAT. SO, UH, FEW WEEKS AGO, YOU HAD YOUR MEETING ABOUT RULES AND PROCEDURE. WE SENT OUT THE DOCUMENTS WITH WHAT WAS TALKED ABOUT IN THAT MEETING TONIGHT. WE'RE JUST GONNA GO. WE SENT OUT THE CLEAN VERSION AND THE REDLINE VERSION. WHERE WHAT WE'RE GONNA HAVE UP HERE TONIGHT IS THE RED LINE VERSION JUST SO YOU CAN SEE THE CHANGES AND THINGS LIKE THAT. OBVIOUSLY WE WANT ANY KIND OF FEEDBACK. UH ANYTHING THAT WE YOU STILL MAY WANT TO TWEAK SO THAT WE MAKE SURE THAT YOUR MEETINGS RUN AS SMOOTHLY AS YOU WANT THEM TO. SO WE'LL START WITH THE RULES AND RESPONSIBILITIES AND A LOT OF WHAT WE DID. YEAH MOST OF WHAT YOU CAN SEE IS, UH, WITH WE ATTACKED THE GENDER PRONOUNS, MAKING SURE THAT EVERYTHING'S NEUTRAL. WE DID SOME FIXING UP OF ANY KIND OF GRAMMATICAL ERRORS, LOWER CASE ON THE CASE. THINGS LIKE THAT A LOT OF THINGS . AH WILL STAY THE SAME. BUT WE DO WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE PUT IN LANGUAGE UP HERE. I DON'T KNOW IF THE ORIGINAL HAD OR THE SUBSEQUENT RUN OFFS. IN TERMS OF WHEN WE ACTUALLY BRING SOMEBODY ONTO THE COUNCIL AND SQUARE. THE MEN. THINGS LIKE THAT. THIS OUTLINES THE DUTIES OF AMERICA PRO TEMPORE, AND THERE'S DISCUSSION ON HOW YOU ACTUALLY SAY THAT I'M JUST GOING TO GO WITH TEMPUR FOR RIGHT NOW SEPARATE TEMP WORK. UM. SO WE DID THAT, UH, THIS IS ACTUALLY ADDRESSING THE CITY COUNCIL. SO AND SOME OF IT, KID. ACTUALLY MENTIONS THE MAYOR AND THE MAYOR'S ROLE IN TERMS OF BEING THE MODERATOR OF THE MEETINGS AND HIS ROLE AS THE MAYOR AND THEN THE COUNCIL'S ROLE. UH IN ADDITION TO THE MAYOR, UM AND THEN WE ADDED THIS FINE DOWN HERE. WE'VE GOT A COUPLE, UH, MEETINGS WITH THE CITY ATTORNEY . WE WANNA GIVE YOU ACCESS, OBVIOUSLY CITY ATTORNEY AND HIRED BY YOU, AND WE WANT YOU TO HAVE ACCESS TO HIM. BUT YOU'VE GOT TO KEEP IN MIND THAT MR HAGAR DOES LIKE TO BUILD US AND SO WE WANT TO BE JUDICIOUS WITH WHAT WE ASKED HIM. UH STAFF IS ALWAYS AWARE OF THAT AS WELL. WE WOULD LIKE THE COUNCIL TO BE AWARE OF THAT AS WELL. UM AND THEN WE ADDED THE LINE HERE ABOUT THE MAYOR PRO TEM. BOTH THE MAYOR AND THE MAYOR PRO TEM ARE ABSENT, WHO WOULD FALL TO BE THE MODERATOR? AH AVERAGE.

COUNCIL MEETING AT THAT POINT THESE ARE THE CITY MANAGER'S RESPONSIBILITY. UM WELL, SHE IS REQUIRED. THE CITY MANAGERS REQUIRED OF AT THE TIME AND PROVIDING INFORMATION TO THE MAYOR AND COUNCIL. THERE WERE A FEW THAT I DIDN'T HAVE ANY KIND OF REVISIONS, AND THAT THE CITY ATTORNEY DEFINITION AS APPLIED IN THE HONORABLE CHARTER. AND WHAT THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE CITY ATTORNEY ARE TO INTERVIEW TERMS AGAIN, FIGHTING THOSE WRITTEN OPINIONS HE DOES STILL BUILD FOR THEM, SO ALWAYS KEEP THAT IN MIND. DO BRING IN THE CITY SECRETARY'S ROLE APPOINTED BY THE CITY MANAGER TO BE THE OFFICIAL KEEPER RECORD. UH FOR THE MINUTES. THE AGENDAS RUNS IN THE ELECTIONS TO CITY SECRETARY DOES A LOT OF THAT, BUT IT ALSO OUTLINES WHEN THE AGENDAS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE DONE WHEN MINUTES ARE SUPPOSED TO BE DONE. RECORDINGS OF MEETINGS, THINGS LIKE THAT, JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE UP TO PAR WITH THE STATE OF TEXAS IS OPEN MEETINGS, ACT THINGS LIKE THAT. ANY QUESTIONS ON THAT BEFORE I GO INTO RELATIONS. OKAY THIS IS

[00:25:07]

YES TO THAT POINT. UM, I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE DIRECTOR. THAT WE'RE PLUGGING THE STAFF IN TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY ARE AVAILABLE TO ANSWER THEIR PHONES. EMAILS CAN RESPOND. BECAUSE WE'VE HAD A LOT OF. COLLINS AND CONCERNS ABOUT THOSE KINDS OF THINGS. SO IF WE'RE TAKING THAT THEY'RE NOT THAT I WANT TO OVERBURDEN THE CITY MANAGER WITH SOME OF THE DAY TO DAY ISSUES, BUT THAT THAT HAS BEEN A WEAK POINT BARS AND HOPEFULLY THAT WE'RE WORKING ON THAT AND GETTING BETTER. I'M NOT HEARING AS MUCH SO I ASSUME THAT WE ARE GETTING BETTER, BUT SOMETIMES THERE'S ISSUES WHERE THE CITIZENS JUST TELL US. WE'RE NOT GETTING ANY WORSE. AND SOMETIMES I'VE LEARNED THIS JUST BECAUSE I FEEL A LOT BEING IN THE CHAIR THAT FIELDS THE CITY MANAGER'S PHONE CALLS. I CAN TELL YOU A LOT OF TIMES THE QUESTION I ALWAYS START WITH WHEN SOMEBODY SAYS I DIDN'T GET THIS OR I DIDN'T GET THAT. I ALWAYS START WITH. HAVE YOU CALLED? SO AND SO AND I ACTUALLY HAVE HAD A FEW PEOPLE SAY WELL, NO, I HAVEN'T CALLED THEM YET. I KNOW YOU TOLD ME TO, BUT I STILL HADN'T GOTTEN ANYWHERE AND I SAID HAVE YOU CALLED? SO AND SO AND THEY SAY, WELL, NO, THEY'RE MY NEXT CALL. AND ALMOST ALWAYS THE NEXT CALL. SO I DO UNDERSTAND YOUR CONCERN, AND WE ALWAYS WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE TAKE CARE OF OUR CUSTOMERS. AND IF YOU GET A CUSTOMER THAT SAYS I CALLED, AND I DIDN'T GET THIS THAT ABSOLUTELY COME TO US, AND WE'LL MAKE SURE STAFF IS ON TOP OF THANK YOU. QUESTION IS CATTLE COURTESY. DO CITY MANAGER AND YOURSELF? STILL ASKED THAT WE SEE SEE TO WHEN WE ARE AFFORDING THIS TO AN APPROPRIATE DIRECTOR . SO WHAT? WE'RE STUFF, ACTUALLY . SO WHAT WE'RE SAYING TO YOU IS ACTUALLY THE OPPOSITE. WE'RE ASKING YOU ALL TO ASK YOUR CITIZENS TO REACH HAVE THEY REACHED OUT TO STAFF FIRST. IF THEY SAID I CALL STAFF, NOBODY ANSWERED MY CALL. THEN IT COMES TO US. WE JUST THIS IS REALLY A REMINDER THAT WE WON'T ROUTINE CALLS TO START OUT WITH THE CITY STAFF. AND THEN COME TO THE CITY MANAGER AS AN ESCALATION. AND SO YOUR REQUEST THAT HAVE COME BECAUSE YOUR CONSTITUENTS ARE FRUSTRATED. COULDN'T REACH ANYBODY. ONCE YOU'VE ASKED THAT QUESTION, THEN YOU GET TO TALK TO ME. INDEED, ALL THESE QUESTIONS LEAST FOR ME AGAINST BIG ABOUT COUNCIL. ALL THESE QUESTIONS COMING TO ME OR MY EMAIL. SO MY RESPONSE GOING BACK TO THAT PERSON WOULD SAY, HAVE YOU CONTACTED SO AND SO? AND I'M ASKING. DO YOU WANT TO BE CC'D GOING BACK? NOT UNTIL THEY NOT UNTIL THEY'VE SAID, UH YES, WE CONTACT THEM AND WE DIDN'T GET ANY HELP. AND THAT'S WHEN WE HAVE TO INTERVIEW THE ANSWER. SO WE WANT TO UNBURDEN YOUR INBOX. ESPECIALLY ABSOLUTELY AND IF YOU WOULD LIKE WE CAN SEND OUT A QUICK LIST OF THAT YOU WILL YOU MOST FREQUENT FLYERS IN TERMS OF PHONE LIST, UH, SERVICE CENTER, NEIGHBORHOOD SERVICES UTILITY CUSTOMER SERVICE OFFICE. WE CAN GET YOU THOSE AND EVEN A BRIEF YEP. CONSTITUENT ASKED THIS FOOLISH PROCESS OF ROLLING OUT THE CUSTOMER SERVICE UNIT. WHAT ARE THE THINGS THAT WAS ROMAN? WORKED IN THE CITY OF FORT WORTH WAS THE ACTION CENTER. AND SO THEY WERE THE ONE STOP CALL CENTER FOR THE CITY OF FORT WORTH FOR HOW MANY YEARS OF YEARS AND SO SHE WAS ALSO PART OF THE TRANSITION TO THE 31 MONTH SYSTEM. AND SO THAT'S GONNA HELP WITH WHERE WE STARTED IN ROLLING OUT THAT WHOLE CUSTOMER SERVICE PROGRAM SAYS THAT'S SOMETHING SHE HAS, ESPECIALLY THAT WILL ALSO BE PART OF HER RESPONSIBILITY. PLEASE. BOTTOM LINE AT THE END OF THE DAY. YOU WANT YOUR CONSTITUENTS HAPPY. WE WANT TO THANK YOU, UH, SO COUNCIL INQUIRIES WITH THE CITY MANAGER, THIS, UH I THINK WE MOSTLY THIS IS A NEW IN ADDITION TO THE DOCUMENT, UM BUT AH, YOU KNOW, EVERYTHING. PART OF THE CHARTER GOES THROUGH THE CITY MANAGER AND SO, UM YOU KNOW, EVEN AGENDA QUESTIONS MAYOR LIKE THIS EVENING QUESTIONS TO THE CITY MANAGER ABOUT AGENDA ITEMS. THE

[00:30:05]

EVERYTHING THAT YOU POST PEOPLE THINK IS AN OFFICIAL STATEMENT OF THE CITY. SAME WITH STAFF POST SOMETHING THAT IS NOT A GOOD REPORT. IF WE POST SOMETHING THAT'S NOT A GOOD REFLECTION ON THE CITY. PEOPLE ARE GOING TO THINK AH, IT'S AN OFFICIAL CITY STATEMENT. EVEN IF IT'S PERSONAL STATEMENT ON OUR BEHALF. SOMETHING TO KEEP IN MIND THERE. UH, BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS. THIS WAS REVISED FROM BEING ITEM G HAS A FEW REVISIONS. UM ADDED SECTIONS, INCLUDING UM. COUNCIL MEMBERS WILL BE ALLOWED TO SELECT THE BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS THEY'D

[00:35:04]

SECTION SO I UNDERSTAND, MR HAGAR THAT HAS BEEN CHANGED, PERMISSIVE AFTER THREE OF THEM WITH WITH THIS AND THAT ORDINANCE THAT WOULD GET IT TO YOU. YOU MAY OR MAY NOT EXCUSE OR CONTINUE THE FIRST TIME THE BOARD MADE IT CLEAR GREAT AND THE OTHER ONES THAT SOME OF THE BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS SECTIONS AND THE NORTHERN CLITORAL. ROBERT'S RULES OF ORDERS WITH SOME DID SOME. DIDN'T I ASKED IT IF IT'S GOING TO BE CONSISTENT WITH CONSISTENT ALL THE WAY THROUGH. THAT CHANGE HAS BEEN MADE. AND ALSO THAT INTERESTING. I GOT AN EDUCATION. I WOULD STAND UP AND CONFESS. I GOT AN EDUCATION THAT I SENT AN EMAIL SAYING THERE'S A TYPO MULTICULTURAL COMMISSION. DIFFERENT PRESENTATION. OKAY I'M SORRY IT'S UNDER THERE, BUT THAT'S THAT'S ENOUGH IMPORTANT COMMISSIONS. THAT'S NOT THAT PRESENTATION. INDIVIDUAL CONSIDERATION. NEVER MIND. ALRIGHT BRING IT UP THERE. IT UP NOW THAT I'M CONFESSING INVARIANCE, YOU KNOW, I THOUGHT I CAUGHT A TYPO WHERE THERE WAS A T N X LIBERAL LIKE IT WAS A TYPO HERE, SO I SENT THAT IN AND THE ANSWER WAS NO, IT IS NOT A TYPE OF IT IS NEW. NORMAN CLAIMS TO BE GENDER NEUTRAL. THERE'S NOT LATINA LATINO 19 X. I GUESS IT'S THE MANNER IN WHICH WE PRONOUNCE THAT SO WHEN YOU SEE THAT TO ME, IT WAS SAID THERE WAS AN EDUCATION FOR ME, AND I APPRECIATE STAFF BEING OF A COMPANY'S KINDS OF THINGS, TOO. EDUCATE ME ON THOSE KINDS OF THINGS. PART OF THE TRAINING. ALRIGHT COME BACK TO THAT PARK. THIS IS IMPORTANT. MAKE SURE COUNCIL THIS WAS ONE WHERE WE TALKED ABOUT. THAT COUNCIL MEMBER WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE MAYOR MAY SERVE AS ONLY A SIGN THAT SOMETHING NEW THAT WE TALKED ABOUT IN THE MEETING OF HAVING YOU ALL SELECT A MEMBER THAT SERVES AS THE LIAISON TO THE BOARD BEYOND THE STAFF PERSON, AND SO THAT'S SOMETHING THAT JUST KIND OF WE DIDN'T HEAR . WE TALKED ABOUT IT TALKED ABOUT THE ADVANTAGE OF MY STANDPOINT OF HAVING SOMEONE WHO'S ALSO WORKED WITH CREATING A BETTER RELATIONSHIP, BUT I WANT TO MAKE SURE YOU SAW THAT THAT WAS INCLUDED IN THE COUNT.

THE RULES LEADING. SO THIS 2ND 1ST SECTION IS THE MEETING STRUCTURE. SOME REVISIONS, NEWLY ADDED SECTIONS. BUT FOR THE MOST PART COVERS. REGULAR MEETINGS. OBVIOUSLY WE MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE MIND TAXES, SUPPLEMENTINGE CALL. AT THE REQUEST. I BELIEVE THAT THE MAYOR OR THE CITY MANAGER COUNCIL MEMBERS TO MORE COUNSELING. UM, LOOKS. BUT THAT'S ONE WHERE I HAVE OBJECTION BECAUSE MARRIAGE DOES DOES RUN THE MEETINGS, BUT THERE IS NO DIFFERENT. STATUE OF NATO, THE COUNCIL MEMBERS I DON'T THINK IT SHOULD BE TO COUNSEL. THERE SHOULD BE ONE COUNCIL. NOT A PROBLEM. UH HUH. AND THEN WITH THE GOVERNANCE OF THE MEETINGS AND THE SWEARING IN OF NEWLY ELECTED COUNCIL MEMBERS HAVE RUN OFFS. UH COUNCIL HOLD GOVERNANCE MEETING TOO. DISCUSS THIS AND.

[00:40:01]

CONSIDER ETCETERA THAT HAS TO BE EXERCISED. BUT WE AS A COUNSELOR, THIS PARTICULAR ITEM F IS CONSENSUS. YES, WE CANNOT TAKE OVER AND VOTE IN A BRIEFING SESSION AND WE GET VERY STRICT COUNCIL FORMER CITY ATTORNEY ON THIS SO WE HAVE DONE THIS ALREADY. WE HAVE HAD CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS REQUEST ITEMS FROM THE EXCEPT THE ITEMS TO CONSIDER INDIVIDUAL CONSIDERATION. AND WHAT WHOEVER IS SITTING IN THIS PARTICULAR CHAIR HAS TO REQUEST CONSENSUS, AND THAT CAN BE BY HOW DO YOU THINK YOU KNOW IF THEIR STUDENT BODY LANGUAGE A HEADS UP, THUMBS UP, WHATEVER THAT'S GOING TO BE HOW WE'RE GONNA DO IT, BUT WE CANNOT TAKE WE AS A COUNCIL, DON'T IT? CAN ADMINISTER OF VOTE DRINKING BRIEFING SESSION. SO I'M JUST BEING VERY CAREFUL ABOUT THIS LANGUAGE IS VERY CLEAR AND VERY PRECISE. BUT THERE HAS TO BE CONSENSUS. WE CAN'T THINK OF BOAT DURING ACCOUNT DURING BRIEFING SESSION. OKAY? SCHEDULE AND DURATION OF THE MEETINGS. ARE. INITIAL PLAN OF 30 MINUTE MEETING GOT SHUT DOWN. NO BUT WE DO WANNA WE WANT THEM MAXIMIZE THE EFFICIENCY. WE DO WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE RULES IN PLACE TO KEEP THE MEETINGS GOING AND THEN UM THIS. RIGHT HERE, TALKS ABOUT IF IT FALLS ON ELECTION, UH, INSTEAD OF THE NEXT HOLDING IT ON THE DAY OF THE ELECTION. SHALL WE HELP THE NEXT TUESDAY NIGHT FOLLOWING THAT ELECTION? UM SAME THING FOR HOLIDAY PERIOD. UM WE DID. THERE IS NO MEETING SHALL EXTEND AFTER THE HOUR. 12 MIDNIGHT UNLESS THE COUNCIL BY AN AFFIRMATIVE VOTE OF THE MAJORITY OF PRESIDENT COUNCIL MEMBERS EXTENDS THE LENGTH OF THE MEETING. SOMETIMES THINGS HAVE TO GET DONE. BUT COUNCIL MEMBERS OF MOVING TO EXTEND THE LENGTH OF THE MEETING SHALL INCLUDE THEM EMOTIONAL MATTERS, APPEARING ON THE DOCKET FOR THAT MEETING TO BE CONSIDERED AFTER THE HOUR, 12. COMING UP. ONE MORE COMMENT REGARDING THAT. IS THAT REALLY THE COUNCIL IS THE ONE THAT DETERMINES OUR SCHEDULE. YEAH THIS IS THE BABY. ON ELECTION NIGHT. LIKE CHOOSING NOT TO, BUT YOU'RE NOT SPECIFICALLY HAVE TO GO WITH THE NEXT WE CAN DETERMINE WHAT POINT THAT'S TRUE PLANNING ON TEXT ONE. YEAH. AND WE CAN CHANGE THAT. BECAUSE IT DOES SAY SHALL BE HELD THERE SO MAY AT THE DISCRETION OF THE COUNCIL. CONDUCT. ALSO HAS, UH, CHANGES, BUT, UH BASICALLY IS. YOUR AGREEMENT WITH EACH OTHER ON HOW YOU CONDUCT YOURSELVES DURING THE MEETING. LISTEN AND UNDERSTAND WHAT FOR, BUT JUDGING FOCUS ON THE VISION AND GOALS FOR AREAS OF AGREEMENT. BE ON TIME START ON TIME. SUPPORT. SERVING DECISION WAS MADE.

GREATER DISAGREE. DON'T PAIR PRAISE IN PUBLIC PROVIDE CONSTRUCTIVE FEEDBACK, PRIVATE JUST FINE DISCUSSIONS, COURTEOUS, HONEST AND TREAT OTHERS WITH RESPECT.

COMMUNICATING OPEN DIRECT MANNER. DO YOU HAVE A PERSONAL ISSUE WITH NUMBER COUNCIL? GO TO THAT MEMBER DIRECTLY POSITIVE AMBASSADOR FOR THE CITY. USUALLY ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS AND NOTIFIED THE MAYOR WHEN YOU MR COMMENT, OBVIOUSLY IN THE BRIEFING ROOM THAT CHANGES A LITTLE BIT, ALLOW

[00:45:02]

REPORTS TO COUNCIL THERE IS A THINKING HERE. THREE MINUTES. LIMITATION ON ANY REPORT.

MEETING MINUTES. CHARTER NOT SHALL BE MAINTAINED. MOST TIMELY MANNER. RESOLUTIONS AND ORDINANCES. HOW MUCH CHANGE THERE? REGULATIONS. UM. BY BY THE CODE OF ETHICS. I WANT TO ADD THAT COMMAND STAFF FOR CONSIDERING ADDING THE CODE OF ETHICS IN PRESENT TIME IS SEPARATE. UM INCORPORATING ATTENDED TO THE RULES AND PROCEDURES MAKES IT MORE CONCEPT DOCUMENT EASILY REFERENCE IN CASE THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH SOMEBODY WHO THINKS ISSUES SO HAVING THAT NOW BEING SEPARATE HAVING TO REFER TO THAT IS NOW INCORPORATED INTO THE PROCEDURE.

AND THEN THE CENTRAL POLICY. UH BUT, UM. JUST NOTED AT THE TOP AFTER A PERSONAL CONVERSATION BETWEEN AT LEAST ONE COUNCIL MEMBER HUGHES. COUNCIL MEMBERS TAKING PLACE AND THAT IS PROVEN UNSUCCESSFUL. THIS GOES THROUGH THE POLICY OF. HOW TO GO ABOUT CENTERING THE MEMBER OF THE COUNCIL. UM AND YOU'VE BEEN FILED WITH THE CITY SECRETARY NEED TO BE UM, STEPPED FORTH THE ALLEGATIONS UNDER THE CITY CHARTER THINGS AND THE RULES OF PROCEDURE. AND THEN ON THE FIRST REGULARLY SCHEDULED MEETING AFTER THE FIRE WAY, UM FORMALLY PRESENT THE NOTICE. ACCUSED COUNSEL NUMBER HAS THE RIGHT TO BE REPRESENTED BY LEGAL COUNSEL OF THEIR CHOOSING.

OVER A YEAR AGO, I STARTED HAVING BRIEFINGS AND DISCUSSIONS ON ANOTHER PROPOSAL USED, WHICH WAS AS A NATURE PRESERVED. AND SO WE BEGAN THOSE DISCUSSIONS. AND TOWARD THE END OF LAST YEAR. SINCE WE'RE TOGETHER PETITIONS SUPPORT OF A NATURE PRESERVE. LOT OF VOLUNTEER EFFORTS HAVE BEEN ON THE PROPERTY. AND. JUST HERE RECENTLY, MR. BOB LADD HIMSELF HAD A MEETING WITH MYSELF. CITY MANAGER. MAYOR AND CITY MANAGER. JUST TO GIVE US HIS THOUGHTS. ON THE CURRENT PROPOSED USE. AND WE ALL HAVE A COPY OF THAT PROPOSED USE AS A NATURE PRESERVE. AND SO I JUST WANTED TO ALLOW FOR THE COUNCIL TO HAPPEN. JUST AN OPEN DISCUSSION. IN RESPONSE TO BY THE DOCUMENT AND ALSO TALK ABOUT MR LADS, RESPONSE TO BOTH JEWS. MR CONTRAST JUST QUICKLY, UM I WANT TO SAY THAT WHEN WE RECEIVED THIS WELL BACK UM, I WAS JUST BLOWN AWAY BY HOW PROFESSIONALLY PUT TOGETHER IT DEMONSTRATES THE POTENTIAL TO MEET THOSE THAT HAVE WORKED SO HARD ON THIS LAND PROPERTY ISSUE. ALONG WITH INCLUDING SOME OF THE WISHES OF THE LAB FILM. AND. I JUST CAN'T SAY ENOUGH ABOUT HOW MUCH THIS MEANS HELPING US. MOVE FORWARD IN THE CONVERSATION, AND I DON'T SAY THAT I TOLD YOU WE'RE KICKING THE CAN DOWN THE ROAD. THIS REALLY IMPORTANT PIECE, THE FIRST THE FIRST PUBLICATION Y'ALL DID WAS WAS GREAT. THIS. THIS WAS TIMELY, VERY WELL DONE.

THANK YOU. AND OF COURSE, AS WE CAN SEE, A LOT OF WORK WENT INTO THAT COURSE WE APPOINTED THAT LIKE COMMITTEE A COUPLE OF MONTHS AND THEY'VE BEEN DOING THIS UNBELIEVABLE AMOUNT OF WORK. UNBELIEVABLE. MY RESEARCH. OKAY, PUT INTO IT AND ATTEMPTING TO RESPOND TO IT. CONCERNS THAT WE'VE ALL HAD IN REGARDS TO FUNDING GUARDS WOULD BE USED. AND EVEN HERE LATELY PROPOSED AN ORDINANCE. AND SO, UM AS FAR AS THE MEETING WITH MR LACK. SO THERE WAS A COUPLE OF TAKEAWAYS.

OF COURSE THE MAYOR WAS THERE AS WELL. AND SAY, MANAGER SO. I MEAN, THESE ARE MY KEY TAKEAWAYS AND THE MAYOR AND CITY MANAGER MAY HAVE OTHERS, BUT HE DID CLARIFY THAT HE DID NOT INTEND FOR ANY USE OF THE PROPERTY OF THE PROPHET S SPECIFY THAT CLARIFY THAT HE SAID THAT HE HAD BEEN OPPOSED TO EVERY PROPOSED USE THUS FAR. FROM SEEING EXAMPLES OF WHAT'S BEEN PROPOSED. YOU SAID THAT HE WAS OPPOSED TO THE PROPERTY CONTINUING IN ITS CURRENT STATE, SO IT WAS VERY CLEAR ABOUT THE FACT THAT HE DOES NOT WANT THE PROBLEM TO STAY AS IT IS. I HAVE NOTHING DONE WITH IT. AND JUST BASICALLY JUST A CABLE OF THE WAY IT IS. HE SAID HE WOULD BE OPPOSED TO THAT. HE STATED THAT THIS PARTICULAR PLAN THAT WE HAVE, HE SAID, THAT'S THE FIRST PLAN THAT HE'S SEEN THE FIRST VISION FOR HIS IDEA. THAT HE DOES SUPPORT. AND THAT HE WOULD BACK AND HE ASKED. HOW THE PROJECT WILL BE FUNDED. THE MAYOR OFFERS SOME POSSIBLE FUNDING. OPPORTUNITIES OPTIONS, BUT THAT'S SOMETHING THAT THE COMMITTEE IS WORKING VERY HARD ON AS FAR AS FUNDING. UM SIERRA CLUB IS OFFERED. YES, SUPPORT. LOOK AT TEXAS PARKS AND WILDLIFE , NATIONAL PARKS AND WILDLIFE. TEXAS TEXAS WATER ACTION COLLABORATIVE, AND SO THEY DEAL

[00:55:03]

AND I APPRECIATE MR JONES, SENDING IT TO US. THAT'S WELL, BUT THE ONE COMMENT I WANT TO MAKE ABOUT THE MEETINGS BECAUSE I WOULDN'T FULLY AWARE THAT I WAS GOING TO HAPPEN ABOUT THAT.

BUT I WOULD ALSO SAY 20 TALK ABOUT FOUR. THIS PROPERTY IS IN DISTRICT ONE. DISTRICT ONE COUNCIL MEMBER REALLY SHOULD BE A PART OF THE DISCUSSION. ANY MEETINGS, ALONG WITH. THE SAME THING. I THINK IT REACHES 12 AND FOUR AND NEITHER ONE OF US WERE IN THERE SO MAYBE IN THE FUTURE.

WE CAN WORK ALL THAT. ASIDE FROM THAT. WHEN THIS WHOLE THING STARTED OVER A YEAR AGO, I

[01:00:07]

SO IT'S BEEN A LOT OF WORK PUT INTO THIS. LOT OF WORKING CITIZENS COMMITTEE HAS PUT INTO IT. IT SEEMS LIKE THERE'S GENERAL SUPPORT FOR THIS PARTICULAR VISION. AND SO NO, I THINK WE'RE AT A POINT WHERE FIRST PHASE IDENTIFIES. ESTABLISHING A NATURE PRESERVE NORTH. AND I THINK THAT'S WHERE WE NEEDED FOR PRETTY MUCH THE POINT. WE NEED TO DECIDE WHAT TO DO THIS OR NOT FOR AS DESIGNATED DESIGNATED NATURE PRESERVE. EXCUSE ME FOR INTERRUPTING THERE, BUT I HAVE THIS INTERJECT. THAT BELIEF WAS THAT YOU COULDN'T DECLARED A NATURE PRESERVE WITHOUT IT WITHOUT THE CONSERVATIONIST. ALRIGHT, OKAY. I'M SORRY. PROBABLY BELONGS TO THE CITY. DECLARED A NATURE PRESERVE. AND THEN AFTERWARDS GO AND MAKE SURE WE GO BACK AND DO THE DETAILS ON THE CONSERVATION. GO AHEAD AND CITY MANAGER WHAT I REMEMBER DISCUSSION AND I'LL ASK HER ATTORNEY TO CLARIFY ME, BASED ON WHAT OUR CONTRACT STATES THAT I THINK WE'VE GOT TO COME UP WITH A PLAN THAT FIND AND THERE WAS THAT'S APPROVED THAT IDENTIFIES IT AS AN AGE PRESERVED. WE'VE GOTTA COME UP WITH. YOU GOTTA COME UP WITH DESIGNS. MR LAD BLESSES THAT AND SAYS YES. PICKED THIS AND NOW YOU CAN MAKE THIS THAT AND THEN IT BECOMES A NATURE PRESERVE, BASED ON WHICH WE SELECT. HE KNOWS THAT HE CAN POSSIBLY TELL A LITTLE BIT MORE BECAUSE MY UNDERSTANDING IS IT WAS UP TO HIM. EVEN THOUGH WE OWN THE LAND. HE HAS THE RIGHT OF WHAT WE CAN DO ON THE LAND AND NOT DO SO CONSERVATIVE WHEN IT DOES RESTRICTOR PROP DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT TO ME IS PROTECTING NATURAL ASSETS. YOU KNOW, LIKE A SNAIL DARTERS LIVED THERE. OR WHATEVER FUN AND FLOUR. BOTANICALS OR THERE, YOU'RE SAVING BY PUTTING THE CONSERVANCY ON THERE. YOU'RE ENSURING PROTECTION. SWEET. THE ORDINANCE COMES FIRST. MR KRANTZ SAID CONSERVATIVE. LOT OF TIMES YOU SEE THE CONSERVANCY USED IN PRIVATE DEVELOPER WILL CONSERVE WETLANDS. ILLEGALS OR SOMETHING NESTING THERE. THEY'LL PUT THAT CONSERVATIVE SO THAT NO DEVELOPMENT OCCURS. THEY'RE IN DANGER. WHATEVER ITSELF SO THAT THAT'S THE PURPOSE OF IT. I THINK I WAS ASKING A DIFFERENT QUESTION. MY QUESTION WAS, DO WE HAVE TO HAVE THE PLAN APPROVED BY MR LAD APPROVING THE PRESERVED AND THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED IN THE LAST MEETING. SO HE IMPROVED THIS PARTICULAR? YES TO US. WE HAVE TO HAVE SOMETHING. YOU WANT HIS LAND.

GIVE US WE HAVE TO. IT'S NOT IMPLANTS. YEAH CONTINUES FOR CERTAIN. NO I MEAN, DID HE NOT HAVE DID HE NOT HAVE CONDITIONS ON THE LAND RIVER? YEAH AND IT'S BASED ON HIS APPROVAL SONG. IT'S JUST AN AGREEMENT. HE JUST NEEDS TO SIGN UP. YOU CAN GIVE US A VERBAL MEANS NOTHING I CAN TELL

[01:05:03]

POSSIBILITY PROBLEMS. MR LAB IS PRETTY SPECIFIC IN TERMS OF WHAT HE WOULD ACCEPT IN TERMS OF GOING FORWARD IF HE LIKES WHAT YOU'VE DONE, AND THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE GONNA DO. IT SHOULDN'T IT SHOULDN'T BE A PROBLEM. MHM. THEN USE THE CONSERVATIVE. TO ENSURE THAT PLACE AND NOTHING UNWANTED. PARTISAN. SO. AMERICA'S NOT QUESTIONS. WHAT'S THE TIMELINE? I THINK WE HAVE COMMON CONSENSUS TO MOVE FORWARD ON THIS. I DON'T BELIEVE THAT THERE'S A THERE'S A POINT TODAY THAT WE CAN'T EVEN DISCUSS THE TIMELINE BECAUSE, AS MR LANCE SAID HE WOULD CONSIDER ONLY AFTER SEEING A FINALIZED PLANT THAT'S BEEN FUNDED HOW LONG THAT'S GONNA TAKE IN TERMS OF ACHIEVING THE FUNDING FOR THAT PARTICULAR DEVELOPMENT. NOBODY CAN SAY RIGHT NOW, AS I SAID IN THE MEETING PUBLICLY TO MR LATTICE SAID, AND, UH EARLIER. IT COULD BE THE 22 23. THAT WILL BE ALREADY CLOSED. 22 23 BUDGET IT MAY BE THE 23 24 COMMUTE 24 25. SO IN ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION, MR MCMULLIN DIRECTLY. I DON'T THINK WE CAN PUT A TIMELINE ON OTHER THAN THE FACT THAT COUNSEL AND STAFF WILL WORK TO THE DILIGENTLY TOWARD EVERY POSSIBLE ACTION THAT WE CAN I WORK IN THIS THING. IT WILL BE DOING OKAY? FOLKS IT'S UH I DON'T KNOW IT 7/10 THINGS IF YOU NEED A CITY SECRETARY. THE TIMESTAMP OFFICIALLY 7 22 CALLING TO ORDER

[3. CITIZENS' INPUT]

[01:35:01]

SIXTH ITEM IS FROM BRITTANY HALL , 10 TO 3 STEWART AVENUE, DUNCANVILLE. HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION. THE MOTOR BAR WAS FINE FOR A NOISE COMPLAINT, WHICH WAS UNREASONABLE AND EMBARRASSING ON THE CITY. DUNCANVILLE IS BEHALF. SHAME ON YOU. I HAVE LIVED HERE FOR OVER 20 YEARS AND I'VE SEEN LITTLE TO NO PROGRESSION WHEN IT COMES TO BRINGING BUSINESS ENTERTAINMENT TO THE CITY. THE OWNER OF BULKHEAD MUD HOOK HAS HIT GROWING RUNNING. HAS HIT THE GROWING RUNNING AND IS UPGRADING THE CITY. UNLIKE THOSE WHO WE PAY TAXES, TOO. WE HAVE TO GO TO CEDAR HILL AND DISORDER TO EAT AND SHOP FLAT OUT AND EMBARRASSING. THE BEST THING DUNCANVILLE HAD BEFORE MONTAUK WAS DUNCAN TWO HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL GAMES THAT WON'T CUT IT. DOWNTOWN DUNCANVILLE LOOKS OLD AND INTERESTING, AND I WANT TO REQUEST MONEY TO BE PUT INTO FEEDING THE NEW AND YOUNG POPULATION AND LEAVE THE OLD SCHOOL IN THE PAST. THE CITY NEEDS TO EVOLVE AND CHANGE AND STOP BULLYING ENTREPRENEURS TRYING TO MAKE THE CITY BETTER.

ONE WEEK OR ATTACKING OWNERS OF AIRBNB S NEXT. THE ONLY BAR IN DUNCANVILLE IS AN ISSUE CITY COUNCIL. WE MUST DO BETTER. NEXT ITEM IS FROM BENJAMIN BANE. 10 TO 1 THAT STREET. PLEASE HAVE MAYOR GORDON READ MY COMMENT. SOME OF YOU MAY BE HERE IN SUPPORT OF BRIAN KEYSER AND MUD HOOK. YOU MAY HAVE BEEN LED TO BELIEVE THAT SOME OF THE COMMUNITY ARE TARGETING BUT HOOK AND TRYING TO RUN HIM OUT OF TOWN. I DON'T BELIEVE THAT IS THE CASE. IT CERTAINLY IS NOT FOR ME AND MY FAMILY. THE FACT IS, THERE HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ESCALATION OF LOUD AND DISTURBING NOISE AT NIGHT FOR AT LEAST A YEAR. IT HAS GOTTEN TO THE POINT THAT MY EIGHT YEAR OLD SON ASKS ME EVERY NIGHT. IF MUD HOOK IS GOING TO HAVE MUSIC TONIGHT, HE CANNOT SLEEP AT NIGHT DUE TO THE CONSTANT BASE COMING THROUGH THE WALLS. THE NOISE HAS REACHED THE LEVEL OF AFFECTING MANY CITIZENS AND NEIGHBORHOOD INSIDE THEIR HOMES. SO MUCH SO THAT ONE OF MY NEIGHBORS THAT LIVES OVER ONE QUARTER MILE FROM ONE HOOK AS STATED THAT HE IS HAVING TO SLEEP WITH HEADPHONES ON IN ORDER TO GET TO SLEEP ON NIGHTS WHEN THE MUSIC IS LOUD. I BELIEVE THE ISSUE. WITH NOISE COMING FROM MUD HOOK AS A RESULT OF A BUSINESS THAT HAS OUTGROWN HIS FACILITY. HIS BUSINESS HAS EXPANDED PRIMARILY TO OUTDOORS IN AN EFFORT TO SERVE MORE PEOPLE. THIS MAKES THIS BUSINESS ENTIRELY AT THE WEATHER'S MERCY. I BELIEVE A POSITIVE SOLUTION WOULD BE FROM WHAT HOOK TO RELOCATE TO THE NEWLY RENOVATED WHEATLAND PLAZA, WHERE HE WOULD HAVE ADEQUATE INDOOR SEATING FOR HIS PATRONS AND EVENTS, REGARDLESS OF THE WEATHER. THIS WILL PUT BRIAN'S RESTAURANTS ALL IN THE SAME COMPLEX, WHICH WOULD BENEFIT ALL HIS BUSINESSES, DRAWING MORE TRAFFIC WILL IN PLAZA. THERE IS AMPLE PARKING FOR FIRST FRIDAY. I BELIEVE THIS IS A PERFECT OPPORTUNITY FOR THE D. C D. C TO HELP LOCAL BUSINESS EXPAND HERE IN DUNCANVILLE. TO SUPPORT WHAT HOOKER WHEATLAND PLAZA. IT IS MY SUGGESTION THAT WE REVERSED THE PARADE ROUTE TO END THAT WE LEARNED PLAZA. THIS WILL HELP DRAW ATTENTION CITYWIDE TO THAT AREA THAT HAS BEEN NEGLECTED FOR YEARS. NEXT ITEM IS FROM DENISE WIND TO 47 MARY BOOK TRAIL. I WOULD LIKE TO MARRY TO READ MY COMMENTS, MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL PLEASE MOVE FORWARD AND OFFICIALLY DESIGNATE THE LAND PROPERTY OF PRESERVED THROUGH A WRITTEN ORDINANCE.

I UNDERSTAND THERE'S SOME SOME FOLKS IN TOWN THAT THINKS THAT WE ARE DOING AWAY WITH DUNCANVILLE COMMUNITY THEATER. WE WORKED VERY HARD TO FIND THAT THEATER WHEN I WAS FIRST ON THE COUNCIL, STARTING IN 1919 84. WE FINALLY GOT IT FIRE FIGHTING TO THE POINT WHERE SHE'S GOING AND WE CAN LOOK UP.

NOW THAT CAN BE AVOIDED IF YOU WILL HAVE A NAIL ORDINANCE WHERE IF YOU HAVE A PERMIT BASED SYSTEM WHERE YOU CAN HAVE UM THERE WASN'T GLASSES , GRASSES AND FLOWERS THAT WERE NOT ONLY DECREASE THE WATER USED IN TIMES OF DROUGHT LIKE WE'RE BRINGING THIS SUMMER, BUT ALSO BEAUTIFY, UM A LAWNS AND OUR CITY, BOTH FOR BUSINESSES AND COMMUNITIES AND SYSTEMS LIKE ME WHO WANT TO DO THAT YEAR ROUND EMPLOYEE TO CONSIDER HAVING AN ABOVE 10 FT INCH ORDINANCE AND ALSO HAVE A PERMIT BASED ON IT SO WE CAN HAVE GRASSES AND FLOWERS ON THE IRAN BASIS.

I WOULD LIKE TO PUSH FORWARD WITH THE ORDINANCE ON THE LAB PROPERTY TO DESIGNATE A PRESERVE. I'M GOING TO ECHO. WHAT'S ALREADY BEEN SAID IS WE CAN DO FUNDING YOU MENTIONED IN THE BRIEFING THAT IT WOULD TAKE TWO, POSSIBLY THREE YEARS BEFORE IT COULD EVEN BE BUDGETED. AND WHEN IT IS APPROVED, WE COULD START RAISING THAT MONEY NOW, BUT WE CAN'T PUT MONEY AT THIN AIR. WE HAVE TO HAVE A PRESERVE IN ORDER TO DO THAT. I ALSO WANTED TO ADD THAT THE DIRECTOR OF WILD AND FREE HOMESCHOOL CO OP FROM SOUTH DALLAS HAS REACHED OUT TO ME, AND THEY WANTED A TOUR. ON LAST THURSDAY, THEY WILL BE COMING WITH THEIR GROUP OF 30, POSSIBLY 40, PARENTS AND CHILDREN DOWN THERE ON THURSDAY TO ENJOY THE LAND, AND THEY'RE LOOKING TO DO A LOT OF VOLUNTEER EFFORTS AS WELL AS MANY PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITY. BUT IT HAS NOW REACHED OUT OUTSIDE OF OUR LITTLE CITY IN THE OTHER CITIES , AND THEY WANT TO KNOW WHAT THEY CAN DO TO HELP AS WELL. AND AS ALWAYS, LITERALLY IS TERRIBLE IN OUR CITY, AND I WISH WE COULD DO SOMETHING TO COMBAT THAT A LITTLE BIT MORE. THANK YOU.

YOU KNOW WHAT OUR ABILITY IS TO ACTIVATE THE COMMUNITY, AND IT'S CLEAR WHAT OUR PASSION IS, UM, THE LAST THING WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO DEMONSTRATE AS OUR ABILITY OF FUNDRAISE AND ONE OF THE REASONS FOLKS ARE REALLY WANTING THIS TO HAPPEN RIGHT AWAY IS BECAUSE THAT'S THE BRAKING MECHANISM.

RECOGNIZE THERE'S A LOT OF CARTS BEFORE HORSES ISSUES HERE BUT WITHOUT A PRESERVE. WE CAN'T RAISE FUNDS FOR A PRESERVE. AND SO AS YOU CONSIDER THE ORDINANCE IN FRONT OF YOU, I WOULD LIKE FOR YOU TO THINK ABOUT THIS AND LET YOU KNOW THAT THE FOCUS ON THE COMMISSION AND OUR NEWLY ORGANIZED PHIL NATURE CONSERVANCY.

WE BELIEVE IT MEETS THE NEEDS AND AS MANY PEOPLE HAVE SAID, WE CAN'T MOVE FORWARD WITH FUNDING UNTIL IT IS LABELED A NATURE PRESERVE, AND THE CITIZENS HAVE SPOKEN, AND WE BELIEVE LIKE THE PASTOR SAID. WE WANT TO MAKE A BETTER DUNCANVILLE. WE WANT TO MOVE FORWARD. WE WANT TO GROW. THERE WERE SO MANY BENEFITS. IT'S SUCH A BEAUTIFUL PLACE, AND WE WANT TO PRESERVE IT AND THEN MAKE IT EVEN MORE. AND SO, UM, BEG YOU TO DO THAT AND NOT TO WASTE ANY MORE TIME. IT'S BEEN SITTING THERE FOR 25 OR 30 YEARS. AND SO WE ARE READY TO DO FUNDING AND IF NOT IS THERE FUNDING ANYPLACE ELSE THAT IT CAN COME FROM? AND AT A ABSOLUTE WORST CASE SCENARIO, PLEASE DON'T MAKE IT BE TWO YEARS IN A BUDGET. IT WOULD ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO BE NEXT YEAR, BUT I THINK WE HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE HERE THAT ARE READY TO GO. LOTS OF COMMUNITY SERVICE SCOUTS AND ALL OF US AS VOLUNTEERS.

[02:25:02]

AND IS OUR PRACTICE NOW? ANY QUESTIONS TO THE APPLICANT OR TO OUR STAFF MAY BE GIVEN BY CITY COUNCIL AT THIS TIME. MR MCBURNETT. THANK YOU, MAYOR. UMN FAVOR OF THIS, BUT I'D ALSO LIKE OUR COUNCIL TO CONSIDER LOOKING AT THE ORDINANCE BECAUSE WE HAVE THESE COME THROUGH QUITE A BIT, AND I THINK THERE'S A FASTER, BETTER PROCESS. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. SAYING NO ADDITIONAL CUT.

OKAY MR. CONTRERAS I JUST WANT TO, UH I AGREE WITH COUNCILMAN MCBURNETT. THAT OVER THE PAST EIGHT OR NINE MONTHS. WE'VE HAD A NUMBER OF THESE THAT HAVE COME FORWARD. AND BEING THAT THEY ARE CONSIDERED TO BE AN ACCESSORY STRUCTURE. I KNOW THE ORDINANCE CURRENTLY SAYS THAT THEY ARE REQUIRED TO GET S U P BUT THEY'RE NOT MUCH DIFFERENT THAN ANY OTHER ACCESSORY STRUCTURE, AND I'M NOT SURE WHY FOLKS HAVE TO PAY. WHATEVER AMOUNT THEY PAY TO COME BEFORE THE PANSY TO GET APPROVAL FOR A LEGAL CARPORT. SO I WOULD AGREE THAT WE SHOULD PROBABLY HAVE THAT DISCUSSION WITH THE CITY MANAGER TO SEE IF WE CAN REVIEW THAT. THANK YOU, MR COONS. ONE MOVED TO PROOF.

SECOND. THE COMMENTS. WE HAVE MOTION TO APPROVE BY MR KOONTZ AND WE HAVE A SECOND, MR CONTRERAS. COUNCIL, PLEASE VOTE. UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED, MR HARVEY ABSENT. THANK YOU. AND CITY MANAGER COMMENTS BY MR CONTRERAS AND MR MCBURNETT DULY NOTED. YES, SIR. WE WILL BRING THIS BACK IN A DISCUSSION WITH COUNCIL WITH HISTORY AND THEN SOME RECOMMENDATIONS. YOU KNOW, ONE THING IS LOOKING AT THAT. PARTICULAR. FASHION THAN WE HAVE. IT ALSO SPECIFIES MATERIALS. AND BY THE 80 WHAT 87TH LEGISLATIVE SESSION BY THE TEXAS LEGISLATURE, THERE IS NO THERE IS NO PROVISION FOR A CITY TO NOT PERMIT ANY TYPE OF BUILDING MATERIAL. SO WHEN IT'S LOOKED AT THIS, IN TERMS OF THE ORDINANCE THAT BUILDING MATERIALS COULD BE LOOKED AT AS WELL. NOW I WILL ADD AS AN ADJUNCT TO THIS THERE IS SOME MOVEMENT. THE CITY CITY ATTORNEY PROBABLY GONNA SHUT ME DOWN, BUT I'M GOING TO DO THIS ANYWAY. THERE IS SOME LEGAL NO, NO, THERE IS SOME MOVEMENT AMONG SOME OF THE LEGISLATORS AS THEY GO INTO THE NEXT LEGISLATIVE SESSION TO REPEAL THAT LAW THAT WAS PUT INTO EFFECT IN THE LAST LEGISLATIVE SESSION TO WHERE CITIES COULD NOT. PRECLUDES ANY TYPE OF BUILDING MATERIAL, SO OUR ORDINANCE IS NOT YET BEEN CHANGED. IT STILL HAS THAT OCCLUSION IN IT. SO WE ARE. IN FACT, WE WERE GIVEN SOME ADVICE TO SAY FROM THE LEGISLATURE FROM IT FROM REPRESENTATIVES AND SENATORS. WE'RE NOT SURE HOW THIS PARTICULAR LAW IS GOING TO MOVE FORWARD. IT COULD BE REPEALED. IT COULD NOT BE REPEALED. BUT I THINK WE NEED TO STAND BY THAT PARTICULAR ASPECT OF THE INCLUSION OF BUILDING MATERIALS FOR ANYTHING THAT'S BUILT IN OUR CITY TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS IN THE NEXT LEGISLATIVE SESSION. BECAUSE THERE ARE STRONG POSSIBILITY IT WILL BE REPEALED. AND I LEARNED THAT ABOUT A WEEK AND A HALF AGO. THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO INTERJECT THAT.

ITEM. FIVE E. CONSIDERING ORDINANCE AMENDING THE CODE OF ORDINANCES BY AMENDING CHAPTER TWO ADMINISTRATION BY REPEALING ARTICLE ONE IN GENERAL SECTIONS , 2-12-22-3. RESERVED FOR FUTURE USED BY ADDING NEW ARTICLE FIVE BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS TO PROVIDE FOR A LIST OF DIFFERENT BOARDS, APPOINTMENTS, QUALIFICATIONS, ESTABLISHMENT, MEMBERSHIP AND OTHER DUTIES PRESENTED BY CITY SECRETARY DOWNS. ALRIGHT ON JULY, 21ST CITY COUNCIL HAD A SPECIAL MEANING TO DISCUSS OUR BOARDING COMMISSIONS AND CHANGES WERE RECOMMENDED BY CITY COUNCIL.

ORDINANCE ORDINANCE. 2454 HAS BEEN CREATED FOR ALL BOARD AND COMMISSIONS THIS ALLOWS FOR STAFF INSTEAD, CITIZENS TO HAVE ONE PLACE TO VIEW OUR BOARDING COMMISSION PROJECT PROCESS AND REGULATIONS. IT ALSO PROVIDES A CONSISTENCY FOR APPOINTMENTS AND THE QUALIFICATIONS FOR EACH

[02:30:02]

THANK YOU, MR COUNTS. SO FIRST OF ALL, I SHOULD HAVE SPOKE FIRST BECAUSE HE TOOK EVERYTHING I WAS GOING TO SAY, BUT I DO WANT TO HEAR THE CITY ATTORNEY'S RESPONSE. IT SOUNDED LIKE THERE WAS SOME QUESTIONS THERE FOR THE CITY ATTORNEY ABOUT QUORUM. THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION AND BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT IN THE C R. D. C. C E. D. C HERE. AS REQUIRED BY STATE LAW TO BE 50% PLUS I CAN BARELY HEAR YOU CITY . I'M SORRY. THANK YOU. REQUIREMENTS FOR P N Z BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT AND THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION AND THEIR QUARRELS ARE SET BY STATE LAW. SO AND IN THAT CASE, YOU HAVE TO HAVE A WORD OF ADJUSTMENT FOR MORE MEMBERS HAVE TO BE PRESENT. AH. SINCE WE HAVE SEVEN MEMBERS AND Z TAKES FOUR MEMBERS TO BE PRESENT. AH AND SO , UH, AND WITH OUR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION OF BYLAWS THAT ARE ADAPTED UNDER ITS ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION, GOVERNANCE, QUORUM. THE REST ARE ADVISORY. AH IN NATURE AND YOU CAN SET THE QUORUM. FOR WHATEVER YOUR TOLERANCES TO HAVE A MEETING. IF YOU AS A PRACTICAL MATTER IF YOU GET LESS THAN 50% THEN ARE YOU GOING TO ACCEPT THE RECOMMENDATIONS THEY MAKE TO YOU TO CONSIDER AND HAVE A DISCUSSION WHEN IT'S LESS THAN THE WHOLE BOARD. THE THOSE ARE ISSUES THAT ARE WITHIN YOUR DISCRETION TO ESTABLISH. SO, MR COONS. SO HOW EXACTLY HOW HOW ARE. HOW IS IT NOW? SO, FOR EXAMPLE, SO, FOR EXAMPLE, PARKS BOARD WHAT? WHAT? WHAT DEFINES A QUORUM. HALF PLUS ONE. SO IF WE HAVE A BOARD OF EIGHT, WE NEED FIVE PEOPLE THERE. IT'S ALWAYS

[02:35:07]

IT'S GENERALLY ACCEPTED ENGLISH COMMON LAW. SINCE THE TIME OF WILLIAM THE CONQUEROR IN 10 66.

SO THAT THAT'S GENERALLY WHAT'S ACCEPTED IF YOU WANT SOMETHING DIFFERENT THAN THAT, AND THAT'S GENERALLY WHAT'S REFLECTED IN LOCAL GOVERNMENT. REQUIRES THE COUNCILS FOR EXAMPLE, I HAVE TO HAVE 50% PLUS ONE. AFFIRMATIVE VOTE IS 50% PLUS ONE, SO THAT'S GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE IF YOU WANT SOMETHING LESS THAN 50% PLUS ONE, WE CAN VISIT THEM. I WOULD CAUTION YOU ABOUT SETTING THE MEETINGS AND ALLOWING THE BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS TO SET THEIR OWN MEETING DATES. AND THE SCHEDULE WOULD BE MY RECOMMENDATION TO YOU SO THAT YOU BELIEVE YOU'RE ALL HAVE SIGNED UP TO BE LIAISON , SO YOU WOULD KNOW WHEN TO SHOW UP. BUT THERE ARE VARIOUS ORDINANCES THAT WE HAVE WRITTEN THAT REQUIRES CERTAIN NOTICES TO BE GIVEN FOR THEM TO APPEAR. AND SO THAT'S WHAT DRIVES FOR THE BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT, FOR EXAMPLE. WE TRIED TO SET THOSE FOR THE FIRST THURSDAY OF THE MONTH. UH SO THAT WHEN WE GET SOMEONE REQUESTING A VARIANCE, WE DRIVE THAT BOAT, SO THAT'S

[02:40:05]

AND SO IT'S A GOOD IDEA TO HAVE A SET MEETING TIME. YOU CAN ONLY IMAGINE YOURSELVES, FOR EXAMPLE, OR YOU DIDN'T KNOW WHEN THE COUNCIL WAS GOING TO MEET, BUT JUST WHENEVER WE GIVE YOU 72 HOURS NOTICE OKAY? AND I'M MAYOR. I'M PERFECTLY ACCEPTING OF MOVING FORWARD WITH THIS.

WITH CONSIDERATION TO SOME OF THESE, UM EFFORTS TO HELP THOSE GROUPS THAT HAVE STRUGGLED FOR SO LONG. HAVE A BETTER CHANCE OF BEING SUCCESSFUL IN REACHING QUORUM. AND. HAVING THEIR MEETING DATE SET TOWARD THEY CAN ALL BE THERE. SO, UM I'M FINE WITH THE RESPONSE. I JUST WANTED TO PASS. THOSE. UM COMMENTS ON THAT CAME FROM A CITIZEN. UNDERSTOOD THANK YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND AS WELL THAT THE ELIMINATION OF THE TERM QUORUM FOR THOSE PARTICULAR BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS THAT DON'T HAVE A QUORUM STIPULATED BY LAW. ELIMINATING THAT WORD FROM WHATEVER THERE IS JUST LIKE SAYING YOU CAN VOTE. IF YOU SHOW UP, YOU CAN VOTE, AND THAT'S THE WAY IT'S GOING TO BE WITHOUT THE USE OF THE WORD QUORUM IN THAT THAT PRESENTS SOME DIFFICULTY, AND THAT'S GOING TO BE VERY DIFFICULT THING FOR OUR ATTORNEY, TOO, RIGHT? BUT SOMETHING TO CONSIDER TAKING IT FORWARD FROM THERE, SO I'M LOOKING AT MY BOARDER, MR MCBURNETT. THANK YOU, MAYOR. I WANT TO COME IN CITY SECRETARY DOWNS FOR THE WORK IS DONE BECAUSE SINCE MY TIME ON THE COUNCIL THIS THING HASN'T BEEN CONSISTENT. WE FINALLY GOT SOMETHING THAT'S MOVING US FORWARD TOWARDS CONSISTENCY, SO I WANT TO. I REALLY APPRECIATE BECAUSE I KNOW IT'S BEEN A LOT OF HARD WORK, SO I'M GONNA MAKE THE MOTION TO APPROVE. THANK YOU. WE HAVE MOTION TO APPROVE THEIR SECOND. I'M SORRY, MR CRUNCHY. HAD A QUESTION FIRST, SIR. THANK YOU, MARY. I JUST HAD ONE AND I'M READY TO PROVE THIS AS WELL. JUST ONE RECOMMENDATION FOR CITY OUR SIZE. TO REDUCE THE ARTS COMMISSION FROM 9 TO 7. THAT WAS THE ONLY RECOMMENDATION. CITY MANAGER. IF YOU WOULD JUST TAKE THAT INTO CONSIDERATION AS WE MOVE FORWARD WITH THIS SO AH! ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION, AND MR MAC THE CITY ATTORNEY DO YOU WANT IN MY TO UNDERSTAND THAT YOU WANT US TO CHANGE IT FOR A FRIENDLY AMENDMENT? NO OKAY, WE'RE GOING TO APPROVE IT AS WRITTEN. CITY MANAGER HAS BEEN GIVEN SOME DIRECTION FOR MAKING SOME MODIFICATIONS AND COMING BACK WITH SOME AMENDMENTS TO IT AT A LATER DATE. SO CHAIR WILL ACCEPT THE MOTION TO APPROVE. SO MOVED . SECOND WE HAVE MOTION TO APPROVE BY COUNCIL MEMBER COULD SECOND BY COUNCIL MEMORY. CONTRERAS COUNCIL PLEASE VOTE. THANK YOU UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED.

WITH MR HARVEY ABSENT. THANK YOU. GOOD EVENING. GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. MY TURN. I'M SORRY TO YOUR TA JUST SECOND. ADAM F CONSIDERING ORDINANCE CREATING CLASSIFIED POSITIONS UNDER CIVIL SERVICE AND THE POLICE AND FIRE DEPARTMENTS PROVIDED FOR A PAY SCALE UNDER CIVIL SERVICE. REPEALING OR ORDINANCES CONFLICT HERE WITH AND PROVIDING A SEVERABILITY CLAUSE PROVIDING REPEALING CLASS AND MR SIEGEL HR DIRECTOR, THE FLOOR IS YOURS, SIR. THANK YOU, SIR. GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL BEFORE YOU IS AN ORDINANCE FOR THE CIVIL SERVICE CLASSIFICATION. UNDER TEXAS LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE CHAPTER 1 43 POINT OH, 21. ANY CHANGE OR AMENDMENT TO THE CIVIL SERVICE STRUCTURE MUST BE APPROVED BY ORDINANCE BY THE GOVERNING BODY.

IF YOU RECALL DURING THE BUDGET SEASON, THERE WERE TWO NEW POSITIONS THAT WERE CREATED IN THE SYSTEM. POLICE CHIEF GIVING US TO ASSISTANT POLICE CHIEFS AND POLICE AND A DEPUTY FIRE MARSHAL POSITION IN THE FIRE DEPARTMENT SINCE THERE ARE TWO NEW POSITIONS IN THE CLASSIFIED SERVICE. WE BRING THIS ORDINANCE TO YOU FOR APPROVAL. YOU CAN SEE THE NUMBER OF POSITIONS IN EACH RESPECTIVE DEPARTMENT. AND THEN ALSO, WE PUT IN ALL OF THE NEW SALARIES FOR THE POSITIONS IN THE CLASSIFIED SERVICE BASED ON THE COST OF LIVING ADJUSTMENT WITHIN THE BUDGET. ANY QUESTIONS? I WILL JUST NOTE THANK YOU FOR INCLUDING THE ENTIRE THAT PAY SCALES FOR BOTH POLICE AND FIRE. IT'S VERY GOOD TO HAVE THAT INFORMATION DOCUMENTED BECAUSE SOMETIMES WE'RE NOT REAL SURE EXACTLY WHERE THE STEPS ARE AND HOW CIVIL SERVICE OPERATES. AND AS WELL SHOWING THE APPROVED SALARIES FOR INCOMING POLICE AND FIRE FOR BRAND NEW INDIVIDUALS COMING IN LIKE, YOU KNOW, AS WE SAY HERE, POLICE OFFICER NO PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE COMING IN STARTING PAY OF $63,418 A YEAR. I THINK THAT'S VERY, VERY COMPETITIVE. WE KNOW THAT THINGS

[02:45:08]

THOSE ARE STRONG AND VERY COMPETITIVE SALARY, SO I THANK YOU FOR THAT, AND FOR OUR CITIZENS, WE WILL DO OUR VERY BEST TO CONTINUE TO PROVIDE VERY COMPETITIVE SALARIES FOR RETENTION AND RECRUITMENT FOR OUR FIRST RESPONDERS. MR CONTRERAS. UM YES, AND I AGREE TO WE TALKED ABOUT THIS A LOT. THE NEED TO MAKE SURE FIRST RESPONDER. EXCUSE ME. OR TAKING CARE OF TO THE EXTENT THAT THEY HAVE THE INCENTIVE TO STAY HERE BECAUSE WE GET MORE COMPETITIVE WITH OUR PAY. I DO HAVE A QUESTION. UM I THINK IT'S CLEAR BUT I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WHAT WE'RE VOTING ON TONIGHT IS TO APPROVE BASICALLY A SIX YEAR PLAN THAT SHORT OF COST OF LIVING INCREASES. UM ISSUED. EFFECTIVELY WHAT COUNCIL MEMBER COUNCILMAN, WHAT YOU'RE HERE TO APPROVE IS THE ENTIRE ORDINANCE BECAUSE WE HAVE NEW POSITIONS IN THE CLASSIFIED SERVICE FOR POLICE AND FIRE. WE HAVE TO PROVE THAT AND THE PAY THAT GOES ALONG WITH EACH AND INDIVIDUAL, EACH INDIVIDUAL STEP WITHIN THE RESPECTIVE DEPARTMENT, BUT THAT TABLE THAT YOU JUST TOOK OFF THE SCREEN THAT'S SHOWING US WHAT THE THESE PAYS WILL BE THROUGHOUT THE SIX YEAR PERIOD.

WE'RE VOTING ON THAT. THAT IS CORRECT. OKAY BUT THE COST OF LIVING INCREASES ARE NOT INCLUDED. WELL. GO AHEAD. OK CITY MANAGER HAD A COMMONPLACE SO WE HAVE ACTUALLY, THIS IS JUST WHAT WE CURRENTLY HAVE. BASED ON COST OF LIVING. HOWEVER WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF GOING TO BE BRINGING BACK TO YOU OUR COMPENSATION STUDY. SO THIS DOES NOT. THIS IS NOT THE RESULTS OF THE COMPENSATION STUDY THAT HAS BEEN CONDUCTED. WE ARE FINALIZING THAT INFORMATION WILL BE BRINGING THAT BACK TO YOU TO LET YOU KNOW. MARKET WISE, ANY RECOMMENDATIONS TO ACTUALLY PAY PLAN? THIS IS JUST ADDING THE NEW POSITIONS TO THE PAY PLAN, WHICH IS THE DEPUTY FIRE MARSHAL AND THE SECOND ASSISTANT CHIEF. OKAY. WELL, THANK YOU FOR THAT CLARIFICATION. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION. CHAIR LIEUTENANT MR MCBURNETT MOTION TO APPROVE BOTH GROUPS. MR MCBURNETT SECOND, PLEASE SECOND FROM COUNCILOR ROBERTO CRUZ. PLEASE VOTE. UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED, MR HARVEY ABSENT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THAT CONCLUDES OUR ITEMS FOR INDIVIDUAL CONSIDERATION. MOVING

[6. STAFF AND BOARD REPORTS]

[02:50:02]

IT'S DOING WELL, BUT WE ALSO HAVE EXPENDED A LITTLE BIT OVER THE TARGET FOR THIS FUND, BASICALLY BECAUSE OF PROJECTS THAT THE COUNCIL APPROVED FOR DEVELOPMENT IN THE CITY. OTHER THAN THAT, THERE'S JUST THIS FUN IS SPINNING ACCORDING TO BUDGET AND THEN WE HAVE THE FIELDHOUSE FUND. AS YOU CAN SEE, THE FUND BALANCE FOR THIS FUND HAS GONE HAS GONE DOWN AS FAR AS THE NEGATIVE FUND BALANCE. SO WE HAVE TRACKED A LITTLE BIT OF REVENUE FOR THIS FUND AT 218,000 REVENUES OVER EXPENDITURES. IN YOUR PACKAGE. YOU HAVE ALL THE OTHER FUNDS, WHICH ARE YOUR SPECIAL REVENUE FUNDS. UH FOR THE CITY THAT WE OPERATE REVENUES THAT COME IN FOR DIFFERENT SPECIAL PURPOSES FOR THE CITY. AS WELL AS YOU HAVE CAPITAL PROJECTS AND DEBT SERVICE FUNDS THAT ARE PROVIDED IN YOUR PACKAGE THAT CAN SEE HOW THEY'RE TRACKING FOR THE YEAR.

AND THEN THE LAST SLIDE SHOWS YOU YOUR OTHER ENTERPRISE FUNDS, WHICH IS MADE UP OF YOUR DRAINAGE AND YOUR SANITATION FUND. THESE ARE THE OTHER TWO ENTERPRISE FUNDS. THAT ARE WITHIN THE CITY THAT OPERATE ON BASICALLY CHARGES FOR SERVICES ON A PROPRIETARY BASIS. THAT ONE. POINT HERE, SO GO BACK THIS ONE SLIDE. 1 13. SO IT IS THIS FUN THAT'S GOING TO BE IMPACTED BY THE RATE INCREASE BY REPUBLIC IS THAT CORRECT? THE SANITATION FUND. YES SIR. THAT'S 1 19. OKAY JUST ONE COMMENT ASIDE. I WANT TO COMMIT.
