THANK YOU FOR THE TIME.SO UH, DUNKER THE CITY OF CHAMPIONS, MY ULTIMATE BOSS. IF YOU SCOREBOARDS IS A GENTLEMAN BY THE NAME OF COACH BARRY SWITZER. YOU MIGHT KNOW HIM AS A THREE TIME NCAA CHAMPION AT OU COACH. DALLAS COWBOYS CHAMPION LAST TIME COWBOYS WON SUPER BOWL KIND OF SCARY BUT TRUE. ANYWAY UM, HE SOLD HIS COMPANY THE MAJORITY SHARE TO A COMPANY CALLED IMAGE. NET IMAGE NET IS ABOUT $180 MILLION COMPANY. WE HAVE 20 OFFICES THROUGHOUT THE SOUTH AND SOUTHEAST UNITED STATES. UM, WE HAVE A LARGE DIGITAL DISPLAY SOLUTIONS GROUP. AND SO IT WAS A PERFECT MARRIAGE FOR DIGITAL SCOREBOARDS AND YOU SCOREBOARDS FROM COACH BARRY SWITCHER. UM, THIS. IS OUR OFFICE IN CARROLLTON. IF ANY OF YOU WOULD LIKE TO COME VISIT THERE IS OUR SCORE BOARD. WE HAVE A PICTURE OF OTHER AUDIO VISUAL SOLUTIONS WE DO. HERE'S A BARISTA SOLUTION WE DID FOR, UH, A COMPANY. I CALL THAT OUT, BECAUSE IF YOU HAVE CONCESSIONS THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO DO MENU AND DO SOME, UH, CUSTOMIZATION OF SPECIALS. WE CAN PROVIDE THAT TO YOU AS WELL. SO THIS IS IMPORTANT SCREEN. WE HANDLE 70,000 DEVICES IN THE CLOUD. WHAT'S LIKE PRINTERS LIKE LIKE WHITE COPY MACHINES THAT, UH, MULTI PURPOSE MACHINES THAT ARE MANAGED THROUGH THE CLOUD. SO THIS IS A STANDARD SCOREBOARD IS AN ANALOG SCOREBOARD. THE PARKS AND RECS GUYS ARE VERY FAMILIARIZED. CONTROLLER PARENTS HATED TO USE THEM. UM, THEY'RE HARD TO KEEP SCORE WITH, UH YOU CAN'T TAKE THEM OUT IN THE RAIN. THIS IS WHERE WE'RE AT TODAY. A BIG, LARGE, BEAUTIFUL DIGITAL SCOREBOARD. THAT WE MONETIZE BY RUNNING SHORT EIGHT SECOND ADS, TWO OF WHICH, BETWEEN OUT IN A MINUTE AND 20 WORTH OF ADS STATIC. PEN. HERE'S THE SIZE OF THE BOARDS. 6 FT. SIX INCHES. 10 FT. EIGHT INCHES. A GENTLEMAN 6 FT FIVE SO YOU CAN SEE JUST THE SHEER SIZE OF THE BOARD 68 PANEL SQUARE FOOT. AND YOUR TYPICAL BOARDS ARE ABOUT, YOU KNOW, EIGHT BY EIGHT BY FOUR, SO 32 SO OVER DOUBLE UH, THIS IS THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY 300 FT FENCE LINE. YOU CAN SEE VERY BRIGHT.
YOU CAN SEE IT FROM ALL THE WAY THE SPECTATORS COULD SEE IT WITH NO PROBLEM AT ALL. THIS SHOWCASES AN AD THAT'S RUNNING. IN BETWEEN AN OUT OR AN ANY SO LET'S TALK ABOUT HOW THE PROGRAM WORKS. THE PROGRAM WORKS VERY SIMPLY BY A SCOREKEEPER MANAGER, TEAM MANAGER COMING UP AND SCANNING THE QR CODE. AFTER THIS QR CODE IS SCAN EITHER THROUGH AN IPHONE OR AN ANDROID, UH, THEY'LL PUNCH IN A FOUR DIGIT CODE THAT'S DISPLAYED ON THE BOARD RIGHT HERE. IT'S 8473.
ONCE THEY DO THAT THEY ARE LOCKED INTO THE BOARD AND THEN THEY KEEP SCORE. FROM THEIR HANDHELD. A REAL SIMPLE, REAL EASY. STILL THE ADVERTISEMENTS FOR YOU'LL SEE A STRIKE RECORDED THE THIRD STRIKE. IT RECORDS AN OUT 28 2ND ACTS. THESE ARE AGE APPROPRIATE ADS. UH, NO TOBACCO, NO ALCOHOL. UH, NO GAMBLING. IT'S UH TWO WEEKS. I CAN ADD IN CONCESSION THAT'S IN BETWEEN.
DOES THE MARKETING IN THE WE DO EVERYTHING? SO YOU SCOREBOARDS MANAGES ALL THIS? DON'T KNOW IT DOESN'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THAT. WE DO THE TYPE COPY. WE WORK WITH ALL THE ADVERTISERS.
REGIONAL, LOCAL, REGIONAL AND NATIONAL LIKE DICKSON ACADEMY. UM THIS IS A CARD THAT YOU KNOW, UH, YOUR YOUR YOUR GUYS WILL HANG ON THE FENCE LINE OF ALL THE PEN THAT ALLOWS THE, UH PARENT TO SCAN THE QR CODE AND SOME SIMPLE INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO OPERATE THE POINTS. I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND. YOU KNOW WHY WE'RE IN THIS BUSINESS. UM IF YOU ADD UP NFL NCAA IN THE MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL AND ALL THE ATTENDEES OF THOSE, UH, OF THOSE VENUES, IT'S NEGLIGIBLE AND A ROUNDING ERROR COMPARED TO YOU SPORTS. THOSE ARE A BILLION SPECTATORS AND ATTENDEES AND YOUTH SPORTS ACROSS THE COUNTRY. SO THIS IS WHY WE'RE IN THE BUSINESS. AND THIS IS A MARKET THAT'S UNTAPPED, AND NOBODY ELSE IS DOING THIS. UH, COACH SWITCHER STARTED THIS AT THE COLLEGE LEVEL MANY MANY YEARS AGO. AND HE'S BRINGING THIS TECHNOLOGY
[00:20:05]
AND THIS EXPERIENCE TO YOUTH AND KIDS, UH, HE WAS ACTUALLY AT HIS GRAND GRANDKIDS BASEBALL GAME.AND HE GOES, DON'T WORK. AND THIS IS SOMETHING I WAS DOING AT COLLEGE. I COULD BRING THIS TO THE YOUTH LEVEL. AND SO HE STARTED THAT SIX YEARS AGO. SO THE PROGRAM DETAILS ARE VERY SIMPLE. UM YOU SCOREBOARDS PROVIDES THE SCREENS THE CONTENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM. ALL THE OPERATING SYSTEM. IT'S A TURNKEY INSTALLATION. UM YOU KNOW, WE'RE WE'RE PUTTING UP ABOUT $20,000 TO DO THIS AT EACH SCOREBOARD. OK? WE HANDLE ALL THE WARRANTY AND MAJOR REPAIRS FOR THE TERM OF THE AGREEMENT. WE ASKED FOR A 10 YEAR AGREEMENT FROM THE CITY. IN RETURN. THERE'S A SUB LEASE AGREEMENT AND BART, YOU HAVE THAT AGREEMENT. UH, WE NEED THE CITY TO POWER TO EACH LOCATION WHERE THE BOARD'S GONNA BE. UM AND THEN A PROVISIONS TO THE CAR INSURANCE. BASICALLY IF SOMEBODY GOES IN VANDALIZES THE BOARD OUR ASSETS COVERED. AND THEN WE'RE PROVIDING DUNKER FOR FREE TO SCORE BOARDS. WE HAVE ANOTHER PROGRAM, SO HE, LIKE GARLAND ARE SIGNING UP TO ACTUALLY BUY THE BOARDS. IF YOU BUY THE BOARDS, THEN IT'S A 5050 SPLIT. YOU GET 50% OF THE AD REVENUE DAY ONE.
UNDER THE FREE PROGRAM ONCE WE PAY THE BOARDS OFF IN ABOUT TWO OR 2.5 YEARS, WE GIVE THE CITY 20% OF THE NET. REVENUE ADVERTISING REVENUE. SO IT'S A WIN WIN FOR EVERYBODY. THE FUELS ARE UPGRADED. THE KIDS HAVE A GREAT EXPERIENCE, AND THE CITY MAKES A LITTLE MONEY AFTER WE PAY THE BOARDS OFF. WE GET OUR INVESTMENT BACK. SO WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE GAP BETWEEN GROWTH AND ABOUT 20% SALES. SGN A IS ABOUT 20% OFF THE GROWTH. UM, WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? I MEAN, WE JUST NEED TO SIGN AN AGREEMENT AND WE'VE JUST WE'VE DETERMINED WE'RE GOING TO START WITH FOUR AT HARRINGTON. THERE'S A QUAD AT THE BOTTOM HAS PRETTY GOOD ATTENDANCE. UM OBVIOUSLY, WE DON'T WANNA DO THIS WITH FIELDS THAT HAVE NOBODY THERE, VIEWING THE BOARDS. CAUSE A BASEBALL SOFTBALL GAMES. ALL THE PARENTS ARE WHAT LOOKING AT THE BOARDS. UM THE DWELL. TIME IS INSANE. IT'S THREE HOURS SOMETIMES WHERE PARENTS ARE AT THESE FIELDS. SO FOR MONETIZATION AND ADVERTISING, IT'S JUST IT IT IT'S A WIN. FOR US, AND IT'S A WIN FOR THE FANS.
IT'S A WIN FOR THE PARENTS BECAUSE IT'S SO EASY TO OPERATE. OR CAN WE RUN CITY ADS WITH NO CHARGE? GREAT GREAT QUESTION. WE GIVE MACY IT'S CALLED INVENTORY. SO THERE'S ABOUT 200 ADS PER GAME THAT RUN. WE GIVE THE CITY 4% OF THE INVENTORY. TO RUN WHATEVER YOU WANT. WE HAVEN'T YOU KNOW, A BALANCE HOUSE OR, YOU KNOW FISH FRY COMING UP. WE HAVE A CITY HALL THING COMING UP IN A COUPLE WEEKS. YOU CAN ADVERTISE THAT ON THE BOARDS. ABSOLUTELY. UM, AND THAT'S PRETTY MUCH IT. UH, I WANNA GET THROUGH THIS QUICKLY. I KNOW EVERYBODY'S UH, YOU KNOW, WORKING OVERTIME AND SO ANY QUESTIONS WE HAVE TO DIRECT THE POLLS AND THE ELECTRICITY WE DO.
WE DO EVERYTHING EXCEPT THE ELECTRICITY JUST HAVE TO RUN THE GOT IT. AND I WORE THAT WE'VE ALREADY GOT AC. QUOTE FOR THAT. IT'S ABOUT $12,000 FOR OUR INVESTMENT. BE NOT FOR AND WE DO HAVE MONEY IN OUR OPERATING BUDGET TO COVER THANK YOU VERY MUCH. APPRECIATE IT. OH, YES, SIR. THANK YOU. SO YOUR MARKETING YOUR YOUR THAT'S AND YOU RUN THEM, I GUESS LOCALLY STATEWIDE NATIONWIDE. ARE THERE DIFFERENT? WE HAVE A WE HAVE A CENTRAL CONTENT WE HAVE. IT'S REALLY KIND OF OUR COMMAND CENTER ACTUALLY HAS ALL THIS WORD WORDS. YOU KNOW, EVENTUALLY IT'S GONNA BE NATIONAL. WE EXPECT TO HAVE 600 BOARDS IN TEXAS ALONE, UM AND WE CAN PUT AN ADD TO A BOARD OR TO A FACILITY. WE CAN CHANGE IT BY ADRIAN BECAUSE A LOT OF TIMES CITIES WILL HAVE THE YOUNG YOUNG KIDS, ONE CLUSTER AND THE OLDER KIDS AND ANOTHER SO WE CAN TARGET THOSE ADS INDEPENDENT. SO IT'S PRETTY SOPHISTICATED. WE CAN DELIVER THOSE YEAH. DO WE NEED A FIELD TRIP TO USE TO SEE HOW IT LOOKS. SURE. JUST THAT. I MEAN, ONLY IF WE CAN BUILD A COPYCAT FACILITY. ONE OF THE BEST THAT COMPLEX. IT'S AMAZING, BUT I THINK IT'LL BE WORTHWHILE FOR THIS JUST TO ACTUALLY SEE THESE THINGS IN OPERATION, YOU KNOW. ME CEDAR H, UH, SP INSTALL THIS WEEK. C HILLS. OH, THERE'S FIVE BOARDS OF CEREAL GOING UP THIS WEEK. UM GARLAND IS GONNA BE INSTALLING TENT. AND UH UH, THERE'S SEVERAL OTHER CITIES THAT IN FACT, THAT MEET WITH PRINCETON, UH, THIS WEEK, AND THERE ARE SEVERAL CITIES ARE VERY, VERY INTERESTING. IS REAL CLOSE. WE'RE IN THE FINAL STAGES OF NEGOTIATING THE LEGAL CONTRACT. HOPE THERE'S NO LAWYERS IN HERE, BUT LAWYERS GIVE SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH. APPRECIATE IT. HEART AND IT GROWS. YOU HAVE ANY FEEDBACK? UM, IF UNLESS YOU, UH DISAGREE. WE WILL CONTINUE MOVING FORWARD WITH WORKING WITH MR BROCK AND CITY ATTORNEY ON FINALIZING THE CONTRACT. SO WHAT? SOME CONSENT FROM US FROM THE AFTER THIS BRIEFING, TO PROCEED WITH MAKING THIS CONTRACTUAL THERE WILL BE
[00:25:02]
LIKE FUTURE AND RIGHT. SO UNLESS THERE'S ANY OBJECTION TO THAT WE SEE THIS ON A FUTURE AGENDA. A YEAH. MR HAGER MAY HAVE TO MAKE SOME ADJUSTMENTS IN YOUR SIN. RIGHT ON THE AVERAGE. I CAN PROPERTY WHICH YOU APPEAR TO FORM. IN YOUR RECOMMENDATION WHEN WE MAKE THAT AFTER THE CONTRACT WITH THESE INDIVIDUALS OR BEFORE OR GIRL. OR SO EVERYTHING ROLLS AT THE SAME TIME. WE DON'T HAVE ANY HANG UPS TO MAKE THESE THINGS HAPPEN. THANKS. RIGHT THAT WAS FAIR.CRUZ CAN CAN WE? I THANK YOU, SIR. CAN WE, UH, REVIEW THAT WHOLE? THE AGREEMENT. I MEAN, THE BECAUSE THERE'S F. YES. MEASURES, OK? THERE'S FOLKS THAT WANT TO PUT THOSE, YOU KNOW STUFF ON THE SIDEWALKS AND YOU KNOW STARTING TO THE BUSINESSES THAT WOULD ADVERTISE AND WE WON'T. WE WON'T ALLOW THAT YET. SO I THINK THAT'S OFF THE TOPIC THAT WE UNDERSTAND WHERE LIKE THANK YOU. UM, CITY MANAGER IS MAKING A NOTE OF YOUR OK? OK? ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
MOVING ON TO ITEM. THREE B, UH, DISCUSS THE PROPOSED PROFESSIONAL SERVICES CONTRACT WITH ASSOCIATES. MASTER PLANNING OF THE CHARLES F NATURE PRESERVE. I KNOW THIS IS WE HAVE A LOT TO COVER. ARE WE GONNA BE ABLE TO MAKE IT 35 MINUTES? I BELIEVE SO. SO NOT FOR YOU. TWO OR THREE. AGAIN, BAR STEVENSON. I THINK THERE'S A WATERSHED MOMENT. REALLY FOR THE COMMUNITY WHERE WE BRING IT FORWARD TO YOU TONIGHT, WE'LL DISCUSS IT IN A BRIEFING SESSION. AND OF COURSE, THERE'S UH, INDIVIDUAL CONSIDERATION ITEM LATER TO SEE YOU TO APPROVE. UH, A MASTER PLAN. UH PROCESS AND CONTRACT WITH HALF AN ASSOCIATES. UH, FOR THE LAD. UH, CHARLES F LADD NATURE PRESERVE. AND SO WE'RE EXCITED THAT WE'RE HERE TONIGHT. UM, THIS HAS BEEN A LONG PROCESS. AND WE INITIATED AN RFQ PROCESS SEVERAL MONTHS AGO. UM AND THAT RESULTED IN A I THINK RESPONDENTS AND WE, UH, HAD A COMMITTEE WHO REVIEWED THOSE COUNCIL COUNCILOR KOEHN CRUZ AND CONTRERAS WERE ALL INVOLVED, UM INTERVIEWED ALL EIGHT RESPONDENTS AND SCORED THEM. THE TOP, UH, FIRM. OUT OF THAT PROCESS WAS HALF ASSOCIATES. IN THE SENSE THAT TIME STAFF HAS BEEN WORKING WITH HALF TO NEGOTIATE THE SCOPE OF SERVICES. SO THE CONTRACT INCLUDES EIGHT PHASES FROM INITIATION, UH OF THE SITE INVENTORY AND ENGAGEMENT. AND THEN, OF COURSE, WITH THE CONCEPTUAL AND THE FINAL. THE MASTER PLAN. BY THE COUNCIL. THERE ARE MULTIPLE OPPORTUNITIES THROUGHOUT THE PROCESS FOR BOTH COMMUNITY INPUT AS WELL AS THE COUNCIL. I THINK THIS PROCESS THEY PROJECT IT WILL TAKE ABOUT FOUR MONTHS TO COMPLETE. UM AND THEN WE DID YOU SEE THAT ON THE AGENDA CONTRACTS HIGH UNDER 100 AND $50,000 FOR THIS PROCESS? IT'S A VERY FAIR PRICE. WHAT THE SERVICES WILL BE PROVIDING. UM AFRICA BEER, UNFORTUNATELY, BUT, UH, HOPEFULLY YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ? I KNOW MR FINCH. MR BROCK HAVE BEEN HAVE BEEN INSTRUMENTAL.
NEGOTIATING ABOUT THE CONTRACT AS WELL AS THE FEES. SO IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, THE THREE OF US WE'RE READY. TAKE THOSE NOW. QUESTION. THE MANIFEST, MR FINCH. YOU MENTIONED THAT THE ALMOST USING YOUR WORDS, THE BEST PROPOSAL. PAYMENT IN 400,000. THAT WAS THIS PROPOSAL.
IT WAS AND IT WAS THIS PROPOSAL. THAT A WONDERFUL JOB AND NEGOTIATED THIS. IF THE LAB FEST I UNDERSTOOD THAT IT WAS ANOTHER PROPOSAL. BUT WE'RE GOING WITH ONE FOR THIS 11 FOR THIS.
ACTUALLY THIS THIS GUY IS NEGOTIATED FROM 400 TO 150. YES. OK I GOT IT. SURE. AND REALLY KEEPING ALL OF THE WORK. IS THAT RIGHT? AND KEEPING ALL THE SCOPE OF SERVICES AND, UH ELTON DID A WONDERFUL JOB AND WORKING WITH THEM AND GETTING THEM DOWN TO SOMETHING THAT WE COULD SO ONE OF THE INTERESTING THINGS THAT I READ IN IN LOOKING IT OVER WAS THAT PART OF THE PROPOSAL THEY'RE GONNA PUT FORWARD. IS THE COST OF CONSTRUCTION OF ANYTHING THAT THEY RECOMMEND. SO WE'RE GONNA SEE A COMPLETE PROPOSAL IN TERMS OF HOW THE LEAD IS GOING TO BE USED.
PROPERTY IS GOING TO BE USED. IN ADDITION TO ANY ADDITIONS, THEY'RE GONNA HAVE TO HAPPEN TO IT. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THOSE ARE GONNA BE. THAT'S WHAT THEY'RE BEING PAID TO TELL US ABOUT RIGHT? SO IT BUT IT DOES IS IT GIVES US A LEAP IN A LEG UP ON KNOWING WHAT THE FUTURE COSTS ARE GOING TO BE IN THE BUDGET FOR TO IMPLEMENT WHAT THEY RECOMMEND. IS I ALSO WANNA JUST
[00:30:06]
TAKE A MOMENT. JUST TALK ABOUT MONEY. SO JENNIFER WHEREVER SHE WENT, UM, I BELIEVE THIS CURRENT YEAR'S BUDGET HAD $50,000 IN IT FOR THIS, UM SO, UH, WITH CO TO KNOW, UH, COUNCIL MEMBER. IN HAD INTRODUCED ME TO, UH RIGHT? AND HAVING QUITE A FEW CONVERSATIONS BACK AND FORTH WITH HIM. UM, WE HAD A LITTLE BIT OF THANK YOU, ALEX FOR HELPING ME GET THE PROPOSAL POSTED SO MISTER L COULD SEE IT BECAUSE SHE WAS GOING BACK AND FORTH WITH US GETTING IT, UH, TO A POINT, BUT, UM HE HAS COMMITTED TO PAYING UM , I THINK IT'S FAIR TO SAY AT LEAST 50,000, I THINK IS WHAT HE COMMITTED TO YOU AND ME, BUT I THINK HE'S GONNA CONTRIBUTE MORE THAN THAT. THE MOST RECENT CONVERSATION I HAD WITH A SPLIT THE COST OF IT. THAT'S GREAT. AND THOSE SEVEN ACRES THAT HE STILL OWNS. SO THE SEVEN ACRES HE HAS TOLD US THAT WE COULD INCLUDE THAT WITH THE OVERALL PLAN I NOTICED IN THE AREA. IT SHOWS THOSE SEVEN ACRES. WELL. THOUGHT YOU WERE THE BIGGEST NEGOTIATOR. I THAT ONE'S GOT THE LAVA. OK, THAT WAS THE ANTI QUESTION LET ME ASK A QUESTION THEN. THE DOCUMENT ITSELF WAS LIKE 44 PAGES LONG. UH, IT'S INVOLVED. BUT AGAIN, IT'S A LEGAL CONTRACT WHERE WE'VE SEEN IN THERE. THIS BRIEFING WAS MINUTES LONG. SO IT IS ON OUR AGENDA FOR AN ITEM OF INDIVIDUAL CONSIDERATION. SO THE ASSUMPTION COULD BE IF YOU HAVE NO QUESTIONS HERE. THEN THERE'S A CAN BE NOTHING OUT THERE. YOU HAVE QUESTIONS? LET'S COVER THESE THINGS NOW. BUT INSTEAD OF LET'S LET'S TAKE SOME TIME. NOW WE HAVE THE TIME. WANNA DIG INTO SOME DETAILS. LET'S DO IT NOW. IF NOT EVERYTHING'S GONNA ROLL PRETTY QUICK OUT THERE. MAKE SURE THAT I'M UNDERSTANDING IN TERMS OF SITUATION THAT I SEE THIS RIGHT NOW THAT THERE'S NOT GONNA BE ANY PROBLEMS WITH, SAY. OK? YEAH, IT'S A IT'S A GO FOR ME ROCK AND ROLL, OK? OVER TIME WITH YOU. YES OK, SO, UH, I WANNA TURN YES. SO WE'VE HAD SOME CONVERSATIONS. AND WHAT SORT OF MR FINCH SO, UM, UNFORTUNATELY, THIS DID NOT MAKE THE UM DID NOT MAKE THE AGENDA AS A BRIEFING ITEM. AND SO I THINK. CAN YOU YOU CROWD ME IF I'M GETTING TOO FAR IN A LINE, BUT, UH, ESSENTIALLY, UM, I, I CAN HAVE A CONVERSATION WITH THE POLICE DEPARTMENT ABOUT ANIMAL CONTROL SEA WALK IN HERE. THE INFORMATION YOU WOULD NOT BE MAKING ANY DECISIONS TONIGHT.THERE WILL BE NO DISCUSSION. I KNOW THAT YOU WANT TO LOOK AT THE ORDINANCES RELATIVE TO VICIOUS DOGS AND THAT TYPE OF STUFF, BUT WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT WITH STAFF WAS, LET'S DO THAT WITH THE NEW COUNCIL SO THAT WE HAVE A TIME TO GET A LITTLE BIT. BUT, UH EVENING. I'M GONNA TRY TO KEEP MR HAGER OFF ME AS WELL. I'M GOING TO SPEAK TO THE CITY MANAGER. SIR. UM, I WANNA INTRODUCE OUR REINTRODUCE. UM OUR SENIOR ANIMAL CONTROL OFFICER CHAD CHAMBERLAIN, WHO'S BEEN HERE ROUGHLY 17 YEARS. AND THEN OUR NEWEST, UH MONICA JONES, WHO WAS HERE IN FEBRUARY.

UM SO BASICALLY ANIMAL CONTROL AND THIS IS JUST A BROAD POWERPOINT HERE, BUT ANIMAL CONTROL UM, IS HERE FOR THE HEALTH, SAFETY AND WELFARE OF THE ANIMALS AND THE CITIZEN. UM AND THAT'S A THAT'S A TO BREAK IT DOWN. EVEN MORE HERE IS ESSENTIALLY KEEPING CITIZENS SAFE FROM ANIMALS. AND ANIMALS SAVE FROM CITIZENS. UM THAT'S OUR PRIMARY GOAL. THAT'S WHAT WE'RE HERE FOR. UH, WE DO THAT BY RESPONDING TO EMERGENCY AND NON EMERGENCY SITUATION WITHIN THE CITY. BREAKING THAT DOWN EVEN MORE. THIS IS SEVEN.
PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITY OF PROBABLY 27. I GUESS THAT WE HAVE UM THAT INCLUDES IMPOUNDING ANIMALS AT LARGE, UM, HAVE THE TRI CITY ANIMAL SHELTER. UM. SURE AT A LATER TIME WE COULD PROBABLY BREAK THIS DOWN EVEN MORE BUT KIND OF OUR PROCESS ON HOW WE DO THINGS LIKE THAT. WHEN
[00:35:05]
WE UH, RESPOND TO A CALL LIKE THAT. IT'S ESSENTIALLY WE WANT THE ANIMAL TO GO HOME. SO WE, MONICA AND I BOTH HAVE UH, MICROCHIP SCANNERS IN OUR TRUCK. UM IF WE'RE ABLE TO CORRAL THE DOG AND EXECUTE IT AT THE TIME, WE WILL TRY TO SCAN THE ANIMAL FOR A MICROCHIP. UM CALLED THE MICROCHIP COMPANY AND TRY TO GET IT RETURNED BACK HOME. WERE UNIQUE BECAUSE IT'S JUST THE TWO OF US. SO IF WE HAVE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS OR WE KNOW IT'S A, UH , A DOG THAT'S GETTING OUT FAIRLY OFTEN. WE COMMUNICATE QUITE A BIT. UM SO OBVIOUSLY THAT WE'RE NOT GONNA RETURN IT.MORE TIMES IN A WEEK. WE WOULD TAKE IT TO THE SHELTER. UM VACCINATE. UM FOOD AND WATER. UH ENTER IT INTO OUR PET POINT SYSTEM AT THE SHELTER. UM INVESTIGATING ANIMAL BITES AND QUARANTINE ANIMALS, WHICH IS AT THE SAME LOCATION. UH, FOR A QUARANTINE IS THAT TRI CITY?
