[00:20:02]

SO DID YOU HAVE A WAY? THE GOVERNMENT FINANCIAL OFFICERS ASSOCIATION? UM ONE OF THE BEST PRACTICES IN RECENT YEARS, THEY PUT OUT THERE IS TO MOVE TOWARDS AN ONLINE BUDGETING TOOLS. SO WE HAVE A FINANCIAL SOFTWARE WHERE WE CAN DEVELOP THE BUDGET. BUT WHAT THE OPEN GULF ALLOWS YOU TO DO IS TO PUT IT ON THE WEBSITE IN A MORE INTERACTIVE WAY. VERSUS JUST A PDF 200 PAGE DOCUMENT. THAT WE PRINT OUT THAT UNDER SCROLL THROUGH SO MORE CITIES ARE LOOKING TO, UM THIS MORE INTERACTIVE APPROACH IN TERMS OF PUTTING THE INFORMATION OUT THERE FOR THE BUDGETING PIECE AS WELL AS I'M EVEN THE FINANCIAL LIKE MONTHLY REPORTS WHERE IT'S AN INTERACTIVE CLICK HERE AT DRILLS DOWN TO THE EXPENSES BY, YOU KNOW, OR ORGANIZATION OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, HOWEVER, YOU AS THE USER WOULD LIKE TO LOOK AT IT, SO IT GETS EMBEDDED IN YOUR WEBSITE.

AND YOU CAN CLICK AROUND IN IT. AND LIKE I SAID, YOU CAN DRILL DOWN TO, HOWEVER, IF YOU'D LIKE TO DRILL DOWN VERSUS SCANNING THROUGH 200 PAGES OF A PDF TYPE DOCUMENTS, SO THAT'S REALLY THE PURPOSE OF THIS BUDGETING TOOL. PENTECOST B MORE USER FRIENDLY FOR THE AVERAGE PERSON WHO WANTS TO SLICE AND DICE THE BUDGET AND LOOK AT THE DIFFERENT AREAS THAT THEY PARTICULARLY WANT TO LOOK INTO. THEY CAN JUST TAKE OUR BUDGET AND PUT IT IN WHATEVER PIECES THEY WANT TO SEE STREETS, WATER SANITATION PARKS. ALL OF THAT, SO IT'S KIND OF LIKE A IT'S ALIVE. OH MY BUDGET DOCUMENT THAT CAN BE VIEWED ON THE INTERNET AT WILL. AND THIS IS WHAT YOU ARE. BUDGET IS

[00:25:04]

ANOTHER ONE. I CAN THROW OUT THERE TO IT AND PUT IN THE STAFF REPORT BUT THE CITY OF KILLEEN, I KNOW THEY UTILIZE THEM FOR THE FINANCIAL TRANSPARENCY PIECE. THEY DON'T USE IT FOR THE BUDGET PIECE, BUT THEY DO FOR THEIR MONTHLY REPORTING. ENCOURAGED TO SEE WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE.

FRANKLIN AND JUST WHEN YOU WORK ON THE PATIENT, BUT IT SAID WERE LIKE 8% WITH WHAT'S THE TIMELINE? IT'S PROBABLY IN OUR COURT AT THIS POINT, SO IT'S DATA VALIDATION. I'M GIVING HIM A LOT OF INFORMATION THE IMPLEMENTATION TEAM HAS HELPED A LOT IN TERMS OF BUILDING OUT THE PAGES FOR ME, AND, UM, SO IT'S JUST GOING THROUGH EVERYTHING VALIDATING THAT, YOU KNOW, UM SO IT COULD BE WITHIN YOU KNOW THE NEXT MONTH THAT I WANT TO BE ABLE TO SHOW WITH THIS HICKMAN AND ENJOY TO THE FINANCE TEAM SO THEY CAN GET A LOOK AT IT. UM BUT I DON'T HAVE A STAGE OF, YOU KNOW, ROLL OUT, ENSURE THAT THEY ALL ARE BUYING IN THAT WE WANT TO CONTINUE WITH THIS PARTICULAR SOFTWARE FOR I KNOW THE CONTROLLER HAS A TRANSPARENCY STAR PROGRAM THAT DOES LEAD INTO BEING ABLE TO GET THAT TRANSPARENCY START. I'M SORRY, CERTAINLY UPDATE YOU WITH A DATE. OH YES, SIR. QUESTIONS, PLEASE. MAYBE FOR THE CITY ATTORNEY. BECAUSE YOU MENTIONED THAT PROVING THIS WE'RE NOT ACTUALLY. YOU SURE YOU SAID WE'RE STILL WAITING FOR BUYING COMING CITY MANAGER. AND MY QUESTION IS SO, IT SAYS, CONSIDER RESOLUTION RATIFYING EXPENDITURES. ARRIVING JUST CONSIDER A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING EXPENDITURE OF SOME SAY IMPROVING EXPENDITURE. AND SO. IT SAYS RATIFIED. HOW DOES THAT FIVE. HE'S ALREADY SPENDING THAT MONEY. AND YOUR RATIFYING THAT EXPENDITURE MEANS YOU'RE APPROVING IT TRUE YOU DIDN'T PREAPPROVED. EXPENSE. PROBABLY WHAT WHAT OCCURRED THERE'S A NUMBER OF THESE ITEMS THAT YOU KNOW ON YOUR AGENDA WHERE THEY'RE EITHER AT 198,000. THIS IS A SPLIT. IT WAS PROBABLY ORIGINALLY CONTRACTED WAS UNDER 50. YOU CAN SMOKE A BECAUSE IT'S AUTHORIZED BUT IF YOU'RE GONNA ATTACK ON NEXT YEAR WHAT YOU'VE DONE NOW YOU'RE SUDDENLY OVER. 50 PROCUREMENT OFFICER SEEING THE SAME VENDOR. SO INSTEAD OF PEACE SMELLING THESE PROCUREMENT. OVER TWO OR THREE YEARS. WE'RE JUST KIND OF DO A THREE YEAR ONE YEAR RENEWALS. SO THAT YOU GET TO SEE IT AND YOU WILL KNOW THAT YOU HAVE EXPENDED THAT 150,000 INSTEAD OF 49, BECAUSE THAT'S A HALLMARK. MAYBE THE MANAGER. IS NOT SPENDING THE MONEY CORRECTLY AND GOING OUT FOR BITS. THAT'S WHAT GOT YOUR NEW PROCUREMENT OFFICERS EYES ON THIS, SO IT BUMPS UP TO THE FIFTIES. SO WHAT WE'RE DOING IS TWO YEAR CONTRACT RATIFYING LAST YEAR'S EXPENDITURE AND THEN APPROVING NEXT YEAR'S SO THAT WE'VE APPROVED OVER 50,000 SO IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE WE'RE TRYING TO SKIRT PROCUREMENT. CHOIR MINTS, AND THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT OCCURRED. THERE WAS A CONTRACT LESS THAN 50 BEGIN. YEAH, THANK YOU. THAT'S WHY IT SAYS RATIFIED BY. AGENDA ITEM.

THE IMAGE ON THE LEFT IS AN AERIAL SHOWING THE SUBJECT SITE NESTLED IN BETWEEN HASTINGS AND MAIN STREET JUST SOUTH OF FREEMAN. HE'S FREEMAN STREET.

QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL. DISCUSSION. MR COOTS. THANK YOU, MAYOR, PROTEIN. I THINK I'VE ALREADY. MADE MY POSITION PRETTY CLEAR ON CHANGING. ZONING AND DOWNTOWN DUNCANVILLE TO THE COUNCIL, SO PROBABLY STARTED TO SOUND LIKE A BROKEN RECORD. TWO PEOPLE SITTING UP HERE, BUT FOR ANYONE JUST FOR THE PUBLIC'S GENERAL. KNOWLEDGE AND WHY WHY I WILL BE VOTING AGAINST US IS THAT UM, I DON'T KNOW. I'M PRETTY SURE WE HAVEN'T CROSSED

[01:55:03]

IT'S NOT DETAILED. IT'S PRETTY HIGH UP. BUT IT DOES GIVE US A PLACE TO START AS FAR AS THE ZONING. AND YEAH, I JUST I GET VERY UNCOMFORTABLE WHEN WE START CHANGING THE ZONING ON ALL THESE PROPERTIES AND, UH, I MAY HAVE MISSED IT. BUT EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE, MR WARREN WILL GIVE US A AN IMAGE THAT SHOWS THE DIFFERENT PROPERTIES SURROUNDING A PROPERTY THAT'S UNDER CONSIDERATION AND YOU SEE, WE'RE STARTING TO SEE LOTS OF DIFFERENT COLORS SHOULD MEANING THAT WE'VE, YOU KNOW, PUT S UPS ON DIFFERENT PROPERTIES AND AGAIN. WE END UP WITH THIS. UH, KIND OF HODGEPODGE OR ZONING. AND I'M I'M A PROPONENT OF CREATING A VISION FOR DOWNTOWN DUNCANVILLE AND STICKING WITH THAT VISION. AND IF WE HAVEN'T REALLY CREATED THAT VISION YET COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IF WE'RE NOT IN AGREEMENT UPON THAT, THEN WE NEED TO REVISIT THE COMP PLAN.

REVISIT OUR COMPREHENSIVE ZONING ORDINANCE AND START THERE AND START MAKING DECISIONS BEFORE WE CONTINUE TO MAKE CHANGES. ZONING IN DOWNTOWN, SO THANK YOU. THANK YOU. I'M. GOT MY OWN FEELINGS ABOUT THIS. AND I ALSO, UM SOUND LIKE A BROKEN RECORD ON THIS ISSUE, AND THAT EVERY TIME WE HAVE A REQUEST FOR A ZONING CHANGE IN THAT DISTRICT. IT JUST REMINDS ME HOW LONG WE'VE HAD THIS DISTRICT IN PLACE, WHICH CAUSES PEOPLE. AH! THAT WANT TO DO THINGS THAT WE FEEL ARE APPROPRIATE ON MAIN STREET AND THE DOWNTOWN DISTRICT. BUT THEY HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS PROCESS.

IT COSTS MONEY. IT TAKES CITY RESOURCES AND SETTING UP MEETINGS AND HEARINGS. AND IT JUST SEEMS AS THOUGH WE'VE GOT. TO WE'VE GOT TO GET TO THAT POINT WHERE WE'VE GOT THIS.

ZONING ORDINANCE. TOWARDS NEEDS TO BE SO FOLKS LIKE THIS DON'T HAVE TO COME AND ASK EACH TIME IT DOES. UM I DON'T KNOW THAT TECHNICALITY OF HOW CLOSE WE BORDER ON SPOT ZONING, BUT THAT'S WHAT I WAS THINKING. WHEN I WAS READING IT IS WE JUST GOT THESE SPOTS ALL OVER TOWN OR THE DOWNTOWN DOGVILLE DISTRICT WHERE WE DO THIS, BUT I DO, HOWEVER, UNDERSTAND THE UNDERTAKING TO REDEVELOP A. CONCEPTUAL, UM IDEA TO TAKE, UH. IN CREATE A NEW DOWNTOWN DUNCANVILLE DISTRICT.

IT'S GOING TO TAKE TIME. UM BUT FOR THAT REASON I DON'T OPPOSE THIS BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE PROPERTY OWNERS ARE HAMSTRUNG BY THIS ORDINANCE, AND IT'S OUR PROBLEM TO FIX SO I'LL BE VOTING IN FAVOR OF IT. BUT AND LEAVES A BITTER TASTE IN MY MOUTH, BUT I'M NOT BLAMING ANYBODY FOR THAT . WE'VE JUST GOT TO WORK HARD TOWARDS GETTING TO, UH THE END RESULT OF A NEW DOWNTOWN DOG OR DOG, DUNCANVILLE DISTRICT. THANK YOU. YOU KNOW OTHERS? MOTION TO APPROVE. WE HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE. MR MAC BARNETT. 2ND 2ND BY COUNCILWOMAN BE GOOD AND. FURTHER DISCUSSION. OKAY, THEN.

I KNOW AGAIN. MOST OF IT IS PROJECT SEE IP RELATED TO TRY TO IDENTIFY ALL THE CURRENT PROJECTS THAT WE HAVE GOING ON. AND WHAT THE COST IS HOW MUCH WE'VE SPENT AND HOW MUCH YOU KNOW WAS REMAINING ON THOSE PROJECTS TO CARRY FORWARD, SO IT'S A LOT OF DETAIL TO GO OVER IN THIS, SO I'M HAPPY TO ENTERTAIN ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE ABOUT THESE AMENDMENTS.

IT'S COLD. GOOD EVENING. HONORABLE MAYOR PRO TEM CONTRERAS. DISTINGUISHED MEMBERS OF THE DUNCANVILLE CITY COUNCIL. I'M JACKI COLTON. FOR THE RECORD . I'M JACKIE COLTON, THE INTERIM

[02:05:06]

YOU KNOW ALL OF THE DETAILS OF THE PROJECT. AH I AM GOING TO REVIEW WITH YOU RATHER QUICKLY.

UM THE DETAILS OF THE PROJECT. BASICALLY WE HAVE BACK WALLS AND FOUR DIFFERENT LOCATIONS THAT ARE CITY OWNED THAT HAVE FALLEN IN DISREPAIR THAT WE NEED TO REPLACE. IN ADDITION, WE HAVE SOME INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS THAT WE WILL BE MAKING. SO WE FOLLOW THE STATE'S PROCUREMENT OF RULES AND ADVERTISED THE PROJECT. UH, IN SEPTEMBER. AND B . IT'S CLOSED ON THE 12TH OF OCTOBER. AT THAT TIME WE RECEIVE FOUR BIDS, WHICH WE WERE HAPPY TO. YOU KNOW THAT THERE WAS SOME INTEREST IN THE PROJECT BECAUSE IT KIND OF HELPED US CONTROL THE COST. SO I LOWEST BIDDER. WAS STOIC CONSTRUCTION OUT OF FORT WORTH. THE BIT AMOUNT WAS 1.4 TO 5. 31 $1 MILLION. AND IN ADDITION TO THAT BIT AMOUNT, WE'RE ASKING FOR A 10% CONTINGENCY IN THE AMOUNT OF 142,005. FOR TOTAL PROJECT COST OF $1.567 MILLION. SO THE SOURCE OF FUNDING FOR THE ENTIRE PROJECT IS OUR DRAINAGE FUNDS. AND THE ANTICIPATED PERIOD TO CONSTRUCT THE JOB IS FROM JANUARY TO AUGUST. YEAH AND THAT'S THE REQUEST. WE STAND BEFORE YOU, YOU KNOW, ASKING FOR THE CITY COUNCIL'S APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION AWARDING THE PROJECT TO STOIC CONSTRUCTION. SO ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS? COUNCILMAN COONS. THANK YOU. MAYOR PRO TEM. COULD YOU GO BACK TO THE PAGE WITH THE BED AMOUNTS RIGHT THERE. YES, MA'AM. THANK YOU. SO . PRICE IS ONE CONSIDERATION.

RIGHT SO YOU GOT THE LOWEST BETTER BUT WHAT OTHER CONSIDERATIONS GO INTO THE SELECTION PROCESS? OKAY, SO WE KNOW I CAN TELL YOU ABOUT STOIC, UM THE, UM OUR DESIGN ENGINEER HAS SOME, UM, EXPERIENCE WITH THAT PARTICULAR CONSTRUCTION FIRM AND WE'VE BEEN TOLD THEY DO GREAT WORK. YOU KNOW? WE HAVE SOME EXPERIENCE WORKING WITH THIS FIRM? YES NOW THE CITY DOESN'T BUT YES, OUR DESIGN ENGINEER DOES. YES, THANK YOU. COUNCILWOMAN GOODEN. THANK YOU.

MAYOR PRO TEM. UM YES. I'M EXCITED TO SEE THIS ON OUR AGENDA. I KNOW THE CITIZENS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD HAVE BEEN SPEAKING TO THEIR COUNCIL MEMBER DISTRICT TO MCBURNETT ABOUT THE PROJECT AND, UM FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS. MY QUESTION IS WE DO WE NORMALLY REPAIR BAG WALLS AND RETAINING WALLS THAT SUPPORT A CREEK. OKAY SO I AM GOING TO BREAK THAT DOWN. IT DEPENDS UPON THE OWNERSHIP OF THAT BACK WALL AND WHO ORIGINALLY BUILT IT. SO IN GENERAL IF THE CITY DID NOT BUILD IT OR IF THE CITY IS NOT, UH, SEEKING TO PROTECT ITS INFRASTRUCTURE IN THE CREEK, IT IS THE PROPERTY OWNER'S RESPONSIBILITY TO MAKE SURE THAT THE BANKS OF THE CREEK OR ARMORED IN ORDER TO PROTECT THEIR PROPERTY. THANK YOU FOR THAT RESPONSE BECAUSE I WANTED TO CITIZENS TO UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCE FROM THIS BAG WALL VERSUS ANY OTHER RETAINING WALL.

THIS HAS INFRASTRUCTURE AND IT THAT WE NEED TO PROTECT THAT BELONGS TO THE CITY AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. YES, MA'AM, THAT IS WHAT SPECIFICALLY QUALIFIED THIS ONE FOR THE CITY TO MAINTAIN AND REPAIR THE BAG WALL? ABSOLUTELY CORRECT. THANK YOU. ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS. ENTERTAIN

[02:10:05]

[Items 4.C & 4.D ]

AS THE COUNCIL AS WELL WHERE THESE ORDINANCES TOUCH ON THE LAB PROPERTY ON JULY 18TH 2023, THE CITY CONSIDERED THREE ORDINANCES ONE TO AMEND THE COMP PLAN TO AMEND THE ZONING ORDINANCE TO INCLUDE AND NATURE PRESERVE WITH ALL OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR A NATURE PRESERVE. AND FINALLY, THE ACTUAL ORDINANCE, PLACING THE ZONING ON THE LAB PROPERTY. THE COM PLAN WAS ASSIGNED NUMBER 2317 OR 24. 7 I'M SORRY, 2317, WHICH IS THE NUMBER THAT WAS OF THE ORIGINAL COMP PLAN. THE R DESIGNATION MEANS REVISION TO THAT ORDINANCE. IT APPEARS THAT THERE WAS SOME CONFUSION IN THE TEXT OF THE ORDINANCE THAT WAS GOING TO BE PUT INTO THE CAMP PLAN. THEY DID NOT SPECIFICALLY ALLUDE TO THE LAB PROPERTY, BUT ALLUDED TO, UM WHAT IS REFERRED TO AS PLANNING AREA EIGHT. SO WHAT WE'VE DONE IS AMENDED THE TEXT AND THEREBY AMENDED THE ORDINANCE 2317 TO REFLECT THE CHANGE IN THE ACTUAL TEXT OF THE COM PLANT, WHICH NOW SPECIFICALLY DELINEATES THAT 42 PLUS OR MINUS ACRES OWNED BY THE CITY WILL BE DESIGNATED AS OPEN SPACE AND NATURE PRESERVE, SO THAT'S ITEM C. WITH REGARD TO ITEM. D AS THE COUNCIL IS AWARE THERE WAS AN ORIGINAL ORDINANCE THAT WAS UNDER CONSIDERATION. THAT NIGHT, THERE WAS VARIOUS AMENDMENTS THAT WERE PROPOSED SPECIFICALLY BY COUNCILMAN COONS AND OTHER COUNCIL MEMBERS. UH WE MADE THOSE NOTES AND WITH EMOTION TO APPROVE, UH, THAT ORDINANCE AS AMENDED. MR COONS AND I, THEN, UM. PROCEEDED TO TRADE DRAFTS TO MAKE SURE WE CAPTURED ALL OF THE AMENDMENTS THAT WERE OFFERED THE EVENING OF JULY 18TH. SO THE ORIGINAL ORDINANCE, WHICH CARRIES THE NUMBER, 2485 WAS IN THE CITY SECRETARIES. Q AND THE NEW ORDINANCE THAT MR COONS AND I AGREED CAPTURED THE ESSENCE OF WHAT WAS BEING OFFERED BY THE NOT ONLY THE CITIZENS, BUT THE COUNCIL AMENDMENTS. AH THAT ORDINANCE ENDED UP BEING ORDINANCE 2486. THOSE NUMBERS WERE ASSIGNED AFTER THE MEETING BY CITY SECRETARY'S OFFICE AND AS YOU'LL RECALL COUNCIL. THAT'S TIME WHEN WE DID NOT HAVE A CITY SECRETARY, BUT KRISTEN WAS FILLING IN NOT ONLY WITH HER JOB IN THE POLICE DEPARTMENT BUT IN THE OFFICE OF THE CITY SECRETARY AND BEFORE MISS TAYLOR WAS, UH, CHOSEN, SELECTED AND BEGAN HER TENURE AS OUR CITY SECRETARY. SO WHAT HAPPENED IS 2485 AND 2486.

[02:15:09]

WHO WOULD LIKE TO MAKE THIS MOTION TO APPROVE. OKAY? WE HAVE A MOTION IN THE SECOND. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION. WITH THAT, LET'S GO AHEAD AND VOTE. THANK YOU TO UNANIMOUS.

[4.E. Council to consider a resolution to approve an annual recurring agreement with CivicPlus for citizen reporting software known as See.Click.Fix with an anticipated Fiscal Year 2024 expenditure of $51,975; and authorizing the City Manager to execute the necessary documents related to said expenditure; and providing for an effective date. ]

UM THEY'RE BELIEVING THE STAFF REPORTED DID SHOW THE 20 2 TO 23 INVOICE INCLUDED WITH THAT, UM, THAT'S SOMETHING WHERE THE INITIAL AGREEMENT THAT WAS SIGNED WAS A ONE YEAR AGREEMENT WITH AN AUTOMATIC RENEWAL. UH WENT ABOVE 50,000. SO IT'S ONE OF THOSE ONES THAT MR BROCK AND MISS HICKMAN SPOKE ABOUT TONIGHT WHERE WE SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN COUNCIL APPROVAL BEFORE WE EVER SIGNED THAT AGREEMENT AND DIDN'T SO NOW WE'RE TRYING TO CORRECT THAT WITH THIS AGREEMENT. BRING IT TO YOU TONIGHT TO GET APPROVAL BEFORE WE PROCEED FORWARD AND WITH THAT, I'LL ENTERTAIN ANY QUESTIONS. WOMAN, GOODEN. THANK YOU. MAYOR PRO TEM. THANK YOU. MR KEYS FOR, UM, LET ME BEGIN BY SAYING TAKING MY CALL. I THINK THERE WAS WHAT'S TODAY? TODAY TODAY? YES WELL, THANK YOU FOR TAKING MY CALL AND ANSWER MY QUESTIONS IN REVIEWING , UM, THIS ITEM. I DID NOTICE THAT THE CURRENT CONTRACT, UM HAS EXCEEDED THE EXPIRATION DATE. IS THAT CORRECT? CORRECT.

ARE WE CURRENTLY UTILIZING? UM SEE, CLICK AND FIX WE ARE AND WE'VE HAD CONVERSATIONS WITH CIVIC PLUS TO ENSURE THAT WE WILL BE ABLE TO CONTINUE TO DO SO. PENDING THIS MEETING. WE TOLD THEM THAT IT WOULD BE ON THIS AGENDA. OKAY, UM. SO IS IT COMMON FOR US TO CONSIDER

[02:20:03]

SO AS I STATED, I AM CONCERNED ABOUT IT. I DON'T LIKE, UM US MAKING DECISIONS BECAUSE OF DESPERATION. I WOULD PREFER THAT WE KNOW AHEAD OF TIME AND ABLE TO MAKE A WELL EDUCATED UM, INFORMED DECISION, BUT THANK YOU AGAIN FOR TAKING MY CALL. ENTERTAINING MY QUESTIONS, AND, UM I WILL. THAT'S ALL THE QUESTIONS I HAVE FOR NOW. COUNCILMAN MARK BURNETT. THANK YOU. MAYOR. PROTEIN CONTRAST. AH! MR KIIZA. HAVE SOME OF THE SAME CONCERNS, AS IS COUNCIL MEMBER GOOD AND ON THE SAME ISSUE. THE OTHER ISSUE. I KIND OF HAVE WITH IT IS I WHEN I WAS LOOKING AT WE HAVE I KNOW IT'S A ONE. IT'S BEEN A ONE YEAR AND EXISTENCE BUT WE HAVE 150 UNIQUE USERS. AND I'M TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHERE DO WE REALLY NEED TO BE? AND IS THIS REALLY COST EFFICIENT AND IN TERMS OF DOING THAT, OR WHAT CAN WE DO TO RAISE UP THE NUMBER OF INDIVIDUALS THAT USE THIS FEATURE. AH OF THE 150. I'D BE KIND OF CURIOUS TO KNOW. HOW MANY PEOPLE BECAUSE I KNOW I HAVE SOME PEOPLE IN AND MY DISTRICT THAT THAT WHEN THEY'RE OUT WALKING THERE CLICKING AND FIXING, OKAY, AND SO HOW MANY? YOU KNOW HOW MANY ARE WE GETTING THIS? I MEAN, YOU KNOW, OR IS IT BEING USED WHERE IT'S WORTH PAYING FOR IT? YOU KNOW, AND AGAIN, THAT'S SOMETHING WHERE WE THINK IT IS RIGHT NOW BECAUSE THE VALUE THAT , UH, THAT STAFF SEASON THIS IS THAT THE PUBLIC CAN SEE THE ANY OF THE CONCERNS THAT ARE BEING UH, PUT IN THERE. UM NOW THEY DO ARCHIVE FAIRLY QUICKLY. ONCE A TICKET HAS BEEN CLOSED, AND SO SOMETIMES THERE IS THE POSSIBILITY THAT MAYBE THE TICKET DOESN'T GET SEEN. BUT THERE IS THE ABILITY ALSO FOR INTERACTION IF STAFF SAYS THAT, UH, WE THINK WE'VE SOLVED THIS PROBLEM AND SOMEBODY SAYS I JUST WALKED PAST IT. AND YOU DIDN'T. CAN YOU COME TAKE ANOTHER LOOK, SO THERE'S THE ACCOUNTABILITY FACTOR FOR US AS WELL, UM, TO THE 150 USER'S UNIQUE USERS. UM I THINK PART OF THAT. IS WE CONTINUE TO TRY AND PUT IT OUT THERE. WE DO HAVE THE ALERTING TOOL I THINK WHEN WE CLOSED WE CLOSED THE STREET RECENTLY, UM AND MR HAMBY WAS ABLE TO SEND OUT AN ALERT TO EVERYONE WHO HAS SIGNED UP FOR SECRET FIX TO GET THAT ALERT, ALERTING THEM THAT THAT STREET WAS CLOSED, SO IT'S ANOTHER TOOL FOR US. IN ADDITION TO SOCIAL MEDIA AND PRESS RELEASES TO TRY AND SEND OUT THOSE NOTIFICATIONS UM, SO THE TOTAL NUMBER OF USERS TO WHERE WE CAN YEAH, THERE'S NOT REALLY AN R O I, BUT WE DO TRY AND CONTINUE TO GET THAT UP. AND IF WE HAVE, YOU KNOW, SOMEWHERE

[02:25:06]

AND IT. IS THIS A MEANEST PRODUCT. PRODUCT NO, SIR. THIS IS A CIVIC PLUS. SO CIVIC. PLUS DOES THE UNICODE ORDINANCES THINGS LIKE THAT THEY HOST OUR ORDINANCES. FOR US. IT'S THAT SAME COMPANY, BUT BUT THERE'S NO THE REAL ISSUES OR ANYTHING. I T IS ANY KIND OF ISSUES. THERE'S GOING TO PREVENT THIS THING FOR BEING MANAGED OR WELL OR OR IF YOU'RE ON OUR SIDE. NO, SIR, IN AND THEN ALSO OR ARE WE ARE YOU GONNA BE ABLE TO RUN CERTAIN REPORTS SO SORT OF IF A COUNCIL MEMBER ASKED FOR A REPORT? YES SIR. WE IN FACT, ONE OF ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE MADE SURE TO REQUEST WHEN WE DID IMPLEMENTATION WAS THAT WHEN WE SHARED THE, UM SHAPE FILES WITH, UH, CIVIC. PLUS WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY BROKE IT OUT BY DISTRICT. AND THAT IT WASN'T JUST THE CITY AS A WHOLE. SO THAT IF YOU REQUEST MR KEYS, I NEED TO SEE HOW MANY ISSUES HAVE

[02:30:01]

PEOPLE DON'T SO FOR ME, UM I WILL SEND SOMETHING OUT TO MY CONSTITUENTS TO LET THEM KNOW.

AND I JUST THINK THAT'S YOU KNOW , WE JUST CONTINUE TO COMMUNICATE SO THAT PEOPLE KNOW I THINK ANY TIME WE HAVE ANY TWO WAY COMMUNICATION, IT DOES NOTHING BUT BENEFIT US BECAUSE WE'RE ABLE TO HEAR WHAT PEOPLE HAVE TO SAY THEY'RE ABLE TO HAVE A CHANNEL TO SAY WHAT THEY NEED TO SAY SO. I'D LIKE TO SEE US. GIVE IT ANOTHER YEAR AND COME BACK AND SEE WHERE WE ARE AT THAT POINT. THANK YOU. HERE WE GO. I'M GOING TO BE FAIR AND GENTLE ABOUT THIS BECAUSE IT'S BEEN A WHILE SINCE I'VE ENGAGED IN THIS PROGRAM BECAUSE. REMEMBER, 68 MONTHS AGO, YOU AND I WENT BROWN AROUND FIRST CONTRIBUTED TO USER AIR. AND THEN I'LL LET YOU ALL TAKE IT OVER. AND, UH THE AIR'S CONTINUED AND I KNOW WE WERE NEW INTO IT, BUT I GOT FRUSTRATED, AND I JUST TOOK THE OLD RIGHT AROUND, TURNING MY COMPLAINTS IN NOW, HAVING SAID THAT I REALIZED A LOT OF TIME HAS PASSED AND THINGS MAYBE, UM HMM. MAYBE RUNNING BETTER. SO I'M GIVING HOPE YOU MENTIONED, UM. WELL, FIRST, I'M GONNA MAKE A COMMENT ABOUT THE RENEWING THE EXPIRED CONTRACTS JUST ON THAT ISSUE. WE'VE HAD SEVERAL, OF COURSE THAT THIS PAST YEAR, MAYBE MORE WHERE IT SEEMS LIKE THAT'S HAPPENED. UM I'M HOPEFUL THAT WE'RE LEARNING OUR LESSONS ABOUT KEEPING AN EYE ON THOSE CONTRACTS AND HAVING THE APPROPRIATE PEOPLE WATCHING THOSE DATES TO MAKE SURE THAT WE KNOW WE'VE GOT NEW PEOPLE IN PLACE TO TAKE CARE OF US. AND I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO CORRECTING THOSE. PROBLEM. SOMETIMES THEY THEY'RE EASILY CORRECTED. SOMETIMES THEY'RE A BIG DEAL. AND SO THAT'S ALL SAY ON THAT ISSUE. UM YOU USE THE TERM WHEN DONE CORRECTLY. AND SO I GUESS THAT'S PART OF THE STILL IN THE LEARNING PHASE. PROCESS.

UM MY EXPERIENCE WAS THAT, UM. I'M NOT GONNA I'M NOT GONNA BELABOR THIS FROM MY EXPERIENCE WAS THAT I COULDN'T GET INFORMATION BACK. UM AND SO I'M ASKING YOU NOW WHERE WE'RE AT NOW. IF A CITIZEN WERE TO CALL IN AND ASK AFTER SUBMITTING A REQUEST. MAYBE LET'S SAY TWO MONTHS THREE MONTHS LATER. IF THEY HAVEN'T SEEN IT, COMPLIANCE. ARE THEY ABLE TO ASK FOR? THE DATE THAT YOU WOULD BE ABLE TO SHOW IT IN THIS PROGRAM. THE DATE THEY TURNED IN THE COMPLAINT, THE DATE THE INSPECTOR TOOK IT OVER THE DATE. THE INSPECTOR FIRST VISITED THE SITE, THE FIRST NOTICE THAT WENT OUT. IN SOME CASES, A SECOND NOTICE WENT OUT. AND THEN WHAT ACTIONS HAPPENED AFTER THAT, SUCH AS CITATIONS ISSUED BECAUSE THAT'S ONE OF THE PROBLEMS I WAS HAVING IN THE BEGINNING WITH I COULDN'T GET ANY OF THOSE ANSWERS BACK. SO WHERE ARE YOU ON THAT NOW? TO WHERE A CITIZEN CAN GET THOSE ANSWERS? SURE. SO, UM THERE IS FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND, AND NOW LET CITY ATTORNEY AND, UH MAYBE CHIEF LEVIN ANY OR EVEN INTERIM CITY MANAGER BROWN SINCE HE WAS IN THE POLICE DEPARTMENT. THERE IS AN ISSUE WHEN IF WE PUBLICLY SAY CITATION ISSUED. TO A CERTAIN ADDRESS OR A PARTICULAR PERSON. SO WE DO HAVE TO, UM, TREAD CAREFULLY WHEN WE PUT THAT KIND OF INFORMATION. OUT IN THE PUBLIC, BECAUSE THEN AT SOME POINT WHERE WE MAY BE TALKING ABOUT SOMEBODY'S CRIMINAL HISTORY, UM AS CITED BY THE CITY SO BUT YES, IF SOMEBODY WERE TO CALL UP HERE AND IDEALLY WHEN IT'S DONE CORRECTLY, UM WE

[02:35:02]

WE'VE A DEBT OF DELEGATED THIS TO NEIGHBORHOOD SERVICES OR BUILDING INSPECTIONS OR SOMEBODY LIKE THAT, UM, TO INVESTIGATE WHATEVER THE ISSUE IS. AND SO THERE SHOULD BE THE ABILITY FOR IT WON'T BE FRONTLINE STAFF, BUT ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF DO HAVE THE ABILITY TO GO IN AND SEE EVERYTHING THAT WAS DONE THERE ON A CLOSED TICKET. IF IT'S STILL AN OPEN TICKET, YOU SHOULD STILL BE ABLE TO LOG IN AND SEE EVERYTHING THAT IS STILL SHOULD BE ABLE TO SEE CORRECT. FINAL FINAL QUESTION. UM. OUT OF WHAT THIS PROGRAM OFFERS. HER HOW DO YOU MEASURE THAT WE'VE REACHED THE LEVEL OF SUCCESS AND IMPLEMENTING THIS PROGRAM. WHO WOULD WHAT? WHAT'S TELLING YOU THAT IT'S WORKING? I KNOW. I THINK I MENTIONED 150 USERS AND I PUT IT IN THE STAFF REPORTS. I DON'T WANT TO GET THE NUMBER WRONG, BUT SOMEWHERE AROUND. OKAY WELL, THAT'S NOT UNIQUE USERS, BUT NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS. I WAS GONNA SAY. RIGHT UM, I'M THINKING AND I KNOW I PUT IT IN THE STAFF REPORT. BUT I WANT TO SAY WE'VE RECEIVED SOMEWHERE AROUND 4000. FOUR ISSUES. 114 100 NEW THERE WAS A FOUR IN THERE, SO 1400 AH INDIVIDUAL ISSUES THAT AND I WILL SAY THIS, UM, WHEN WE FIRST ENTERED INTO THIS, THERE WAS A THE ONLY SYSTEM FOR REPORTING A COMPLAINT WAS ON THE WEBSITE ABSENT, CALLING US WHICH WE ALL KNOW THE ISSUES THAT WE HAD WITH CITY HALL AND GETTING THE PHONE ANSWERED FOR A WHILE THERE. UM WHICH WE THINK WE'VE IMPROVED ON THAT AS WELL. BUT UM, THE OTHER ONLY OTHER WAY TO DO IT WAS THROUGH THE WEBSITE, AND THERE WE WERE. YOU WERE ALL GETTING EMAILS ALL THE TIME. I REPORTED THIS ON THE WEBSITE AND NOBODY ANSWERED. I NEVER HEARD ANYTHING ABOUT IT, AND WE THROUGH THIS PROCESS AND GETTING C CLICK FIXED, STARTED AND DIGGING INTO WHAT WAS GOING ON ON THE WEBSITE. WE DISCOVERED THAT THERE WERE ISSUES WITH THE WEBSITE AND PEOPLE NOT GETTING NOTIFICATIONS. THEY WERE HAVING TO LOG IN DAILY TO SEE IF THERE WAS SOMETHING THAT WAS ASSIGNED TO THEM. AND IF THEY DIDN'T LOG IN DAILY, THEN THEY DIDN'T KNOW THAT THOSE THINGS WERE THERE. AND SO WE AS ADMINISTRATION, WE STARTED TRYING TO MAKE SURE PEOPLE LOGGED IN DAILY BUT AT LEAST WITH THIS SYSTEM IF SOMEBODY PUTS IT IN, THEY GET AN EMAIL. OKAY? UM. AND THIS IS A ONE YEAR EXTENSION. YES, SIR.

WELL ON THAT BASIS IN AND SINCE IT'S BEEN A WHILE SINCE I'VE BEEN DIRECTLY INVOLVED IN IT.

[02:40:01]

INDIVIDUAL CONSIDERATION HAD. A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS AND THOUGHTS ON ONE OR TWO OF THEM, AND I THOUGHT THEY MIGHT APPLY TO THE OTHER, SO I JUST DECIDED TO JUST MOVE THEM ALL. SO I APPRECIATE THE COUNCIL'S PATIENTS ON ALL THIS, AND I APPRECIATE THE PUBLIC'S PATIENTS. UM SO A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS ON THIS SO DID YOU SAY 100 AND 65,004. FOUNDATION. CORRECT OR DID I HAVE THAT WRONG? IT'S FOR PAVING RELATED TO THE PROJECT. PREDOMINANT LION'S SHARE OF THAT IS GOING TO BE THE FOUNDER, FOUNDATIONAL WORK. FOR THE ACTUAL STRUCTURE. AS WELL AS THE PARKING PAVING THINGS LIKE THAT. 165,000 OF. THE 187,000 TOTAL. THAT WAS A PROVEN CORRECT. YES, SIR. SO COULD YOU. COULD YOU KIND OF GO OVER WHAT THE PURPOSE OF THE DESIGN. INCENTIVE GRANT IS. EXACTLY WHY WE HAVE THAT. YES SIR. UM WITHIN OUR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT INCENTIVE POLICY.

THEY DESIGN INCENTIVE PROGRAM IS THE NOMENCLATURE THAT WE USE FOR KIND OF THE BREAD AND BUTTER ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS THAT WE HAVE, UM, IN THIS CASE, THEY DO HAVE A FRUIT AREA ON THE JOINING PROPERTY. THEY'RE LOOKING AT DOING THIS DEVELOPMENT. UM THEY, OF COURSE NEED AND THIS IS WHERE THE APPROVED AMOUNT COMES FROM WHEN WE WERE DISCUSSING WITH THEM.

WHAT DO YOU NEED TO GET THIS PROJECT UP AND RUNNING, AND IT WAS ABOUT THIS NUMBER. SO THE DCS ABOARD ALONG WITH US AS STAFF AND THE APPLICANT WE NEGOTIATED, OKAY. IF YOU NEED THIS NUMBER, HOW CAN WE GET YOU THERE? AND ONE OF THE EASIEST, QUICKEST WAYS TO DO? IT WAS THE FOUNDATION OF THE PAVING. AND SO THE DESIGN INCENTIVE GRANT IS JUST THE NOMENCLATURE WE USED FOR. THE STANDARD SORT OF HALF CENT SALES TAX. CDC GRANT THAT WE UTILIZE OKAY, SO THAT JUST SO

[02:45:04]

[02:50:05]

HE'LL SEE HERE'S THAT AGAIN. BUT THIS IS SOMETHING THAT ACTUALLY FITS IN THE MAIN STREET VISION AND WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO. THANK YOU. OKAY, JUST A QUICK QUESTION. YOU REFERRED TO PAVING SEVERAL TIMES AND I DON'T PAY BE AND CAN BE, UH, EITHER CONCRETE OR ASPHALT OR SOME OTHER SERVICES BY DEFINITION. WHAT IS THE PARKING LOT SURFACE GOING TO BE, IT WOULD BE CONCRETE. UM, THAT'S. MY UNDERSTANDING AND CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG WITH THE I BELIEVE THE BUILDING CODE IS OR AT LEAST WITH THE FIRE CODE. I JUST KNOW THROUGH SOME OF OUR DRC MEETINGS. IF YOU'RE IF YOU CURRENTLY HAVE ASPHALT AND YOU WANT TO RESURFACE IT, YOU'RE OKAY. BUT IF YOU'RE DOING SOMETHING NEW HAS TO BE CONCRETE. SO THAT'S WHAT I'VE HEARD IN THOSE MEETINGS. I DON'T KNOW IF THE BUILDING OFFICIALS THE FIRE, MARSHALL SAID THAT BUT, UM SO YES, IT WOULD BE CONCRETE. ALRIGHT AS WELL AS THE FOUNDATION, OF COURSE. WELL, THAT'S ALL I'VE GOT. UH, COUNCILMAN COUNTS. THANK YOU BREAK. SO ON I DON'T KNOW IF I SAW THIS THIS THIS IMAGE IS THIS ANYWHERE? MAYBE I MISSED IT IN THE OKAY, BUT IT SO I'M TRYING TO FIGURE OUT. REALLY CANDY IN THIS AREA HERE AROUND WHAT'S REFERRED TO AS A PICNIC AREA. THERE'S SOME LITTLE RIGHT WHAT LOOKED LIKE BIRDS FEET. BUT WHAT IS THAT? THAT AREA THERE? THAT WOULD BE LIKE LANDSCAPING, SO IT'D BE SORT OF A CANOPY TYPE OF AREA FOR THE PEOPLE TO BE ABLE TO SIT OUTSIDE AND EITHER HAVE UM, WELL, LIKE THE FRUIT TURIA RIGHT WITH THE FRUITS OR THE DESSERTS IF SOMEONE WANTS TO GRAB FOOD TO GO AND SIT OUTSIDE WITH HER FAMILY, SO THAT WOULD BE A GREEN SPACE CANOPY KIND OF OUTDOOR SEATING AREA GATHERING SPACE. YEAH IT WOULDN'T BE LOCKED UP OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, SO PEOPLE COULD DEFINITELY ENJOY IT PUBLICLY. PROBABLY QUESTION WELL. SO HE WAS WE'RE TALKING ABOUT DOWNTOWN USE. THE WORD CATALYSTS, RIGHT? AND THIS IS, YOU KNOW. YEAH, I DON'T. FOR ME.

I DON'T WANT TO TREAT THIS AS JUST ANOTHER. STRIP MALL ON THIS GOING UP SOMEWHERE. THAT THIS IS IT IS A CATALYST POTENTIAL CATALYST PROJECT. POTENTIALLY SET THE TONE. YOU KNOW, FOR DOWNTOWN DUNCANVILLE, AT LEAST AT LEAST AT THE GATEWAY BECAUSE IT IS RIGHT THERE AT THE GATEWAY. AH TO DOWNTOWN DUNCANVILLE. AND I MEAN THIS. I DIDN'T REALIZE WHAT USED TO BE A RESTAURANT THERE, BUT SO I MEAN, IT IS A FORM OF REDEVELOPMENT. AND YOU KNOW, WE DO HAVE CERTAIN TALKING ABOUT DOWNTOWN DUNCANVILLE. WE HAVE CERTAIN STANDARDS. THAT WE'VE SET IN OUR COMP PLAN AND ARE COMPREHENSIVE ZONING ORDINANCE. AND SO YOU HAVE YEAH, I FEEL PRETTY STRONGLY THAT WE NEED TO YOU KNOW, MAXIMIZE EVERYTHING THAT THIS YOU KNOW THE POTENTIAL OF THIS PROPERTY BY ANY MEANS AVAILABLE TO US, INCLUDING DESIGN INCENTIVE GRANT AND THE REASON I WAS ASKING ABOUT THE DESIGN INCENTIVE GRANT EXACTLY WHAT THAT IS BECAUSE WE DON'T WANT TO GO BEYOND YOU KNOW WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. RIGHT NOW WE'RE TALKING ABOUT UM YEAH. THE AESTHETICS, YOU KNOW, IMPROVEMENTS OF THE EXTERIOR. PROPERTIES, RIGHT? SO. AGAIN I'M IN SUPPORT OF THIS. MY QUESTION. FOR CITY ATTORNEY IT IS. CAN WE APPROVE AN AMOUNT? THAT'S OVER WHAT'S REQUESTED. NOW BECAUSE OF THE AMOUNT COMES FROM DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION. IT'S THEIR MONEY THEY HAVE PROVINCE OVER. YOU HAVE TO APPROVE THE EXPENDITURE. YOU SO THEY WOULD

[02:55:01]

THEY HAVE TO SHOW US THAT THE WORK WAS DONE THAT IT WAS WITHIN BUDGET AND MET THE DESCRIPTION IN THE AGREEMENT, SO THAT'S THE WAY THE AGREEMENT WILL BE WRITTEN. THEY'LL HAVE TO USE THE FUNDS FOR THOSE SPECIFIC PURPOSES. AND SO THEY WOULD CHECK THOSE RECEIPTS. THAT'S HOW THOSE, UM HMM. GRANTS OR ADMINISTERED BY THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR. THE ONLY REASON IS THE LAST THING. THE ONLY REASON I ASKED ABOUT BECAUSE IT. AND I SEE ABOUT YOU KNOW THE FOUNDATION, THE SPRINKLER SYSTEM. YOU KNOW IF THERE IF THERE WERE SOME OPPORTUNITY FOR US TO IT TO WORK WITH THEM AND IMPROVING THE AESTHETICS AND THE APPEARANCE AND JUST STYLE IZING IT IN THIS CITY BE INVOLVED IN THAT. UM AHMAD BEING SUPPORTED THAT, BUT WE'VE GOT WHAT WE'VE GOT, RIGHT? I GUESS AND WE CAN'T. GO BEYOND THAT, UNLESS, YES, WELL, THE OWNER WANTS SEPARATE OF A OF THE ITEM TONIGHT. WE IF IT WAS THE WISH OF THE COUNCIL, WE COULD COMMUNICATE TO THEM TO PUT IN AN ADDITIONAL APPLICATION FOR SIGNAGE OR FACADE IMPROVEMENT.

UM OTHER BEAUTIFICATION GRANTS. IT WOULD HAVE TO COME AS A SECOND, YOU KNOW, SEPARATE AGREEMENT. BUT IF YOU KNOW THERE WAS THE WILL OF IT, WE COULD COMMUNICATE THAT TO HIM. WE ALSO LOOK AT WHAT THE INDIVIDUAL TENANTS. WE ALSO TELL THEM AS THEY GET CLOSER. THEY HAVE TO, OF COURSE, CONSTRUCT THE FACILITY FIRST, BUT IF THEY HAVE , IF WE WANTED SPECIFIC TENETS, MAYBE WANTED THE HIGHER IN TENETS AND WE WERE ONTO INCENTIVIZE THOSE WE DO COMMUNICATE THAT TO THEM AS WELL TO COME BACK WITH THOSE BUSINESSES, RIGHT IF THERE'S MAYBE A RESTAURANT THAT WE REALLY WANT HERE. WE COULD DO THAT AS WELL. SPEAK CAREFUL, BECAUSE THAT'S ON THE AGENDA. SO IF YEAH, THE COUNCIL WANTS TO ENTERTAIN OTHER KINDS OF INCENTIVES FOR THIS PROPERTY. IT'S ON TAPE, SO WE'LL PASS THAT ALONG TO THEM, BUT I WOULD HESITANT TO HAVE ANYBODY DISCUSSED WHAT THOSE WOULD LOOK LIKE UNTIL WE SEE SOMETHING. AND SO THAT PROBABLY KEEPS ME FROM ASKING MY QUESTION SO. ALRIGHT, WELL, ANY OTHER COMMENTS QUESTIONS? MOTION TO APPROVE. PROMOTION TO APPROVE COUNCILMAN MCBURNETT SECOND BY COUNCILMAN KUNZ ANYMORE FURTHER DISCUSSION. LET'S VOTE. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL.

THAT WOULD BE IN SORT OF THE I FORGET THE EXACT NAME BUT THE BOXES ALONG THE FRONT OF THE STORE THINGS LIKE THINGS OF THAT NATURE. UM AND HERE ARE SOME OF THE CONCEPTS OF WHAT THE SIGNAGE WOULD LOOK LIKE. AND I WOULD BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. EXPLAIN A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT THE LANDSCAPING WHERE WHERE IS THAT GOING TO OCCUR? SO YOU MAY NOTICE, UM ALONG THE STOREFRONT. IT'S JUST THE GREAT CONCRETE ALL AROUND, UM SHORT OF TEARING UP THE CONCRETE AND PUTTING IN GREENERY. UM THE NEXT PECS. NEXT BEST OPTION WOULD BE TO INSTALL FOR THE PILL. IT BOXES. THINGS OF THAT NATURE, UM , FINDING OPPORTUNITIES TO INSTALL LANDSCAPING WERE THEY COULD, BUT IT WOULD PREDOMINANTLY BE SORT OF THE FREESTANDING LANDSCAPING. UM, THAT WE COULD USE THROUGH LIKE THOSE BOXES AND THINGS LIKE THAT FLOWER BOXES, THINGS OF THAT NATURE. UM. GOOD ATTORNEY. IF I'M. AGAIN IF I'M OUT OF STEP ON

[6.A. Fire Department Quarterly Report - 4th Quarter ]

THANK YOU. FOR HAVING ME TONIGHT TO REPORT ON THE DEPARTMENT QUARTERLY REPORT. SO WE HAD A NEW HIRE ON SEPTEMBER 27TH PRESTON MATTHEWS. HE ACTUALLY STARTED COUNTING TOWARDS

[03:10:03]

WE HAVE A CIVIL SERVICE EXAM SCHEDULED FOR DECEMBER, THE NINTH WE HAVE ONE MEMBER MASON QUINN. HE WAS HIRED BACK IN FEBRUARY. HE IS CURRENTLY IN PARAMEDIC SCHOOL. SO JUST GIVE YOU AN IDEA ABOUT OUR STAFFING. WE HAVE THE THREE VACANCIES. PRESTON WOULDN'T COUNTING TOWARDS MANPOWER. WE HAD MASON IN SCHOOL, SO WE'RE LIKE 56 SHORT IN THE FIELD. WHAT WE'VE DONE IN THE PAST QUARTER. WE HAD CAPTAIN DARREN FIELD, ONE OF OUR PARAMEDICS, MICHAEL SHAW AND LACEY FREEMAN ATTENDED THE APPLIED SUICIDE INTERVENTION SKILLS TRAINING. THAT'S CO THAT COINCIDES WITH, UH, THE DALLAS COUNTY MENTAL HEALTH GRANT. WE USE THAT MONEY TO ATTEND SOME OF THESE CLASSES. UH CHIEF RHODIA ATTENDED THE PEDIATRIC PEARLS FOR EMERGENCY CARE DOWN IN MIDLOTHIAN. UH WE'VE ALSO WITH YOUR HELP THAT WE PURCHASED OUR NEW AMBULANCE. WE'RE EXPECTING DELIVERY OF THAT IN ABOUT TWO WEEKS. SO WE THANK YOU FOR THAT. GETTING OUR FLEET BACK UP TO DATE ON THAT. I WAS HONORED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE FENTANYL AWARENESS TOWN HALL IN, UH, IT VILLAGE TECH. ALONG WITH ASSISTANT POLICE CHIEF FREEZE THAT WAS VERY GOOD TOWN HALL MEETING GOT TO ANSWER A LOT OF GOOD QUESTIONS ON FENTANYL. UH MYSELF. CHIEF KEVIN BRANDT, M S CHIEF, KEVIN BRAG. LAUREN SANCHEZ. WE DID A CPR CLASS STOPPED THE BLEEDING CLASS FOR THE VILLAGE TECH TEACHERS AND STAFF BACK IN SEPTEMBER. UH WE HAD A VERY GOOD TIME WITH THAT GOT TO INTERACT WITH THE TEACHERS AND THE STAFF. TO TEACH THEM. AH GIVE THEM OUR EXPERIENCES WITH CPR. UH KEVIN BRAGG ALSO INTENDED THE PINNACLE M S CONFERENCE IN SAN ANTONIO.

UH, BACK DURING THE SUMMER. WE HAD A LOT OF WILDFIRES IN THE PANHANDLE AREA. WE DEPLOYED SEVERAL TEAMS TO THAT AREA IS PART OF THE EMERGENCY MEDICAL TASK FORCE FROM THE STATE OF TEXAS. THEY DEPLOYED AS A WILD LAND PARAMEDIC UNIT. WHICH IS A SPECIALIZED UNIT THAT YOU'RE CERTIFIED AS WILD LAND, FIREFIGHTERS AND PARAMEDICS. IT WAS TWO MEMBER TEAM ONE FROM DUNCANVILLE, ONE FOR CEDAR HILL READ AND ROBERT SHAW. THEY BOTH DEPLOYED FOR ABOUT 10 DAYS OF PEACE. AND THEN TYLER ENDED UP BELIEVE HE LEFT FOR ABOUT FOUR DAYS, AND THEY CALLED THEM BACK.

BUT THEY GET SO YOU'LL KNOW WHEN WE DO MAKE THESE DEPLOYMENTS. AH! THE PEOPLE THAT YOU KNOW, WE'RE VERY GLAD TO HELP OUR FELLOW TEXANS AND NEEDS AND EVEN OUR NEIGHBORING STATES, BUT WE'VE DEPLOYED DOWN TO HURRICANE HARVEY WITH DEPLOYED THE WILDFIRES OUT, YOU KNOW, SEVERAL YEARS AGO BEFORE WE'VE DONE COVID VACCINE DEPLOYMENTS. WE'VE GONE DOWN TO THE RIO GRANDE VALLEY UP THE NORTHEAST TEXAS AND NORTH WEST TEXAS FOR THE COVID VACCINES. AH OUR PEOPLE GAIN A LOT OF EXPERIENCE A LOT OF KNOWLEDGE WHEN THEY GET DEPLOYED ON THESE TYPES OF THINGS, UM YOU SAY WILDFIRES. WE DON'T HAVE MUCH WILDFIRE ACREAGE AND DUNCANVILLE. BUT WHAT YOU WILL BE HEARING AND WHAT YOU'VE PROBABLY SEEN ON THE NEWS IS WHAT THEY CALL WILDLAND URBAN INTERFACE IS WHERE ALL THIS BRUSH CEDAR TREES AND THE VEGETATION THAT WE ALL LOVE AND TRY TO PRESERVE IN THIS AREA GETS A LITTLE BIT TOO BIG YOU SAW LAST JULY WE HAD ABOUT 100 AND 90 SOMETHING MAKER GRASSFIRE DOWN INTO SOTO THAT THREATENED A LOT OF HOUSES. YOU ALSO SAW THE ONE AND BOUGHT SPRINGS. WE RESPONDED TO BOTH OF THEM. WE DID GO OVER THE BOX SPRINGS TO HELP THEM OUT. SO BATTLING THOSE GRASS FIRES IS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THAN A RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURE, FIRE OR COMMERCIAL FIRE, SO GAINING THE KNOWLEDGE IN THE EXPERIENCE ON THE DEPLOYMENT HELPED US HERE IN DUNCANVILLE. WE ALSO HAD A CPR SAVE WHERE THE PATIENT ACTUALLY WAS DISCHARGED FROM THE HOSPITAL . SO UH, I KNOW THIS I DON'T MEAN IT FOR IT TO BE A AND WE DON'T MEAN IT FOR IT TO BE JUST A BULLET POINT ON A SLIDE. WE WITHHOLD A LOT OF THAT INFORMATION FOR TWO PROTECTIVE PATIENT'S PRIVACY, BUT, UH WE DID ADMINISTER CPR, GIVE MEDICATIONS AND DEFIBRILLATE PATIENT AND THEY WERE TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL WHERE THEY WERE DISCHARGED AND THEY WENT HOME. UH, EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT. UH LAUREN SANCHEZ PRETTY MUCH TAKES UP THE REST OF THE SHOW RIGHT HERE BECAUSE SHE DOES EVERYTHING. UH SHE HELD REGIONAL SAFETY, SCHOOL SAFETY MEETINGS WITH THE AREA SCHOOL DISTRICTS AND THE CHARTER SCHOOLS. SHE ATTENDED THE NATIONAL HOMELAND SECURITY CONFERENCE. UH, SHE ALSO AND MYSELF. WE DID PSYCHOLOGICAL FIRST AID TRAINING AS PART OF THE SCHOOL DISTRICT REQUIREMENTS. UH THAT WAS A FIVE HOUR ONLINE CLASS, AND I HAD TO PRETTY MUCH USE MY TRAINING ON MYSELF AFTER I GOT DONE WITH THAT, BUT IT WAS VERY INFORMATIVE ON HOW TO DEAL WITH PEOPLE AFTER DISASTERS.
