>> IF YOU'RE DOING, YOU CAN MAKE POWERPOINT ON THE PRICING INCREASE.
>> IS THAT WHAT THAT IS? THE PRIOR CONTRACT EACH YEAR WE CAN COME IN AND I REQUEST A CONSUMER PRICE INDEX INCREASE.
WE UTILIZED LABOR, BUREAU OF STATISTICS, WATER, SUE AND TRASH PER THE CONTRACT.
THIS YEAR IT CAME OUT AT 5.09%.

I BELIEVE YOU HAVE THE BACKUP THOUGH ALL THE INFORMATION.

OH, THAT'S THE WATER SU AND TRASH INDEX RIGHT THERE THAT IT'S PULLED FROM AND WHEN YOU DO THOSE NUMBERS, IT'S 5.09% SO THAT'S THE PRICING THAT WE'VE SUBMITTED.

FROM MY PERSPECTIVE, FROM MY HOUSE AND FROM CONSTITUENTS THAT I HEAR FROM.
I THINK THAT SOME OF THE THINGS THAT WE'VE TOLD YOU WERE CORRECTIVE ACTIONS TO PUT IN PLACE, SEEMED TO HAVE DONE MUCH BETTER.
FROM MY PERSPECTIVE, THE REST OF THE COUNCIL AND THE MAYOR MAY WANT TO COMMENT AS WELL, SO I DO APPRECIATE THAT. THAT'S HELPFUL.
I DO KNOW THAT IN SOME CASES IN THE BULK PICKUP, YOU GUYS USE ARTICULATED ARMS AND ALL THAT THING SO IT'S, I THINK TO OUR COMMUNITY NEEDS TO UNDERSTAND THAT SOMETIMES YOU MIGHT BE A FEW LITTLE STICKS AND THAT THING THAT YOU HAVE TO PICK UP AFTERWARDS.
BUT I THOUGHT THAT THE SERVICE FOR ME HAS BEEN MUCH MORE CONSISTENT.
>> THANK YOU. IT SEEMS LIKE WHEN WE CHANGE THE BULK THE WAY WE'VE MOVED TO BULK TO ACCORDING TO THE WAY WE RUN IT NOW IT'S A LOT, WE'VE SEEN A LOT OF GAIN ON DOING THAT SO IT WAS A GOOD MOVE THAT WE PUT TOGETHER AND WE'RE SEEING THAT WE'RE REAPING THE BENEFITS ARE BENEFITS FOR EVERYBODY.

SOMETIMES THEY'RE REAL CLOSE AND NO BOOM A LITTLE BIT, BUT THEY DON'T NEED THE BLOCK AND DRIVEWAY SO WE'VE ALREADY MET ON THAT AND THEY'RE GOING TO MEET THEM AGAIN TOMORROW MORNING.

[6. CONSIDERATION AND/OR ANY APPROPRIATE ACTION ON PARKER RANCH ESTATES PHASE 5 FINAL PLAT.]
CONSIDERATION AND ARE ANY APPROPRIATE ACTION ON PARKER RANCH IS STATE-SPACE FAR FINAL PLAT LEAD COUNSEL, THAT YOU ALL GOT ONE OF THE PLANTS IN YOUR PACKET, IF NOT I HAVE A BIG ONE IF YOU NEED TO SEE IT BECAUSE SOME OF US ARE BLIND AND [LAUGHTER] STUFF.[LAUGHTER] ARE YOU HERE FOR PARKER RANCH 5.
>> PHASES WITH BIRKHOFF'S OFFICE?
>> I COULD TELL HE LOOKED VERY DISTINGUISHED [LAUGHTER].
>> IS THERE SOMEONE HERE FROM PARKER RANCH? WOULD YOU PLEASE COME UP TO THE PODIUM AND INTRODUCE YOURSELF?
>> GOOD EVENING. I'M JUSTIN ZUNIGA WITH FIRST [INAUDIBLE] HOMES.
>> ARE THERE ANY ISSUES THAT ARE OUTSTANDING ON THIS FLAT?
>> NO, MA'AM. NONE THAT ANY OF US HAVE BEEN MADE AWARE OF.
MYSELF AND I BROUGHT MATT LEE WITH WESTWARD ENGINEERING.
>> THANK YOU, SIR. THEN I WILL ASK IF YOU WOULD GIVE US A REPORT FROM MR. BIRKHOFF'S OFFICE.
>> GOOD EVENING, MADAM MAYOR. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THE COUNCIL, OUR FIRM, REVIEWED THE PLATINUM, THE CONSTRUCTION PLANS FOR PARKER RANCH, THE STATE PHASE 5 COUNCIL APPROVED THOSE PLANS.
THEY WENT TO CONSTRUCTION IN THEIR FINISHED WE DID A FINAL WALK-THROUGH IN SEPTEMBER AND OCTOBER, AND WE GOT A REPORT BACK FROM THE CITY THAT THOSE COMMENTS FROM THE PUNCH LIST HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED AND THAT FROM THE PLAT IS GOOD.
[00:20:09]
>> ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS REGARDING THE PLAT? THIS GENTLEMEN.
>> I HAVE A QUESTION OF THE PHASE 5 IS THE LAST DAY OF THE PARKER RANCH ESTATE, IS THE CORRECT?
>> I CANNOT ANSWER THAT QUESTION.
>> HOW MADE TOILETS HOMES WERE THERE IN VINYL.
>> I CAN MAKE UP A NUMBER THAT BUT THAT WOULD BE A LIE [LAUGHTER] I KNOW THAT THIS PHASE IS 37.
>> WOULD YOU GIVE YOUR NAME FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE?
>> THE AGREEMENT ORIGINALLY WAS THAT THERE'LL BE NO MORE THAN 246 AND I ASSUME SOMEONE VERIFIED THAT WITH THIS ADDITIONAL PLATING.
>> SURE BIRKHOFF'S OFFICE DID WHEN THEY DID THEIR REVIEWS.
>> MR. MIKADO, IS THIS IN COMPLIANCE WITH OUR CODES AND RULES AND REGULATIONS?
>> IF YOU GO BACK AND COUNT THEM ALL.
>> THEN JUST FOR THE RECORD, I JUST WANTED TO STATE THIS THAT THIS WAS OBVIOUSLY PLATED PRIOR TO OUR LATEST ORDINANCE WITH THE SIZING OF THE WATTS BECAUSE THERE'S 1.2 AND 1.5 ACRE LOTS ON THIS AND THE PERIPHERY, WHICH WAS OKAY WHEN THIS WAS PUT TOGETHER.
>> YEAH, THIS WAS UNDER DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT BACK I FORGET HOW LONG AGO THAT DEVELOP MY GRANDMOTHER WAS.
IT WAS QUITE AWHILE BACK [LAUGHTER] I'M HIGHLIGHTING THAT WAY BEFORE MY TIME.
I'M JUST HANDLING THAT FOR EVERYBODY'S EDIFICATION THAT MAY BE WATCHING AND ET CETERA, BECAUSE THERE ARE SOME CONFLICTING INFORMATION POTENTIALLY ON WHERE THE ORDINANCES RIGHT NOW SO FOR ANYTHING FUTURE, WE HAVE THAT DIFFERENT.
>> YOU DIDN'T FIND ANY DRAINAGE ISSUES?
>> NO, MA'AM. NOT AS FAR AS WE CAN TAKE THE PLANS FOR FACE VALUE AND NO WE DON'T GO THROUGH EVERY SINGLE CALCULATION THAT'S ENGINEERED RECORDS RESPONSIBILITY.
BUT AS FAR AS THERE WERE SOME STORM SEWER CONNECTIONS TO THE CITY OF ALLEN, WE HAD THEM SUBMIT THE PLANTS TO THE CITY OF ALLEN AND THEY APPROVE THOSE PLANS AND FOR THE MOST PART, THE DRAINAGE IS GOING TO ALLEN.
>> THERE'S TWO LOTS, I GUESS THEN SECTION I 2I AND 3I THAT IDENTIFIED AS EASEMENT FOR DRAINAGE AND RETENTION.
WHAT'S ANTICIPATE IT ON THOSE LOTS?
>> A QUESTION IS JUST FOR MY OWN CLARIFICATION WHAT'S ANTICIPATED OR I WAS LIKE, WHAT'S THE RETENTION AND DRAINAGE IN THOSE TWO PARTICULAR LOT.
>> GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS MATTHEW LEE.
I'M WITH WESTWOOD PROFESSIONAL SERVICES.
I'M THE ENGINEER OF RECORD. WITHIN THE PROJECT THERE'S THREE MAJOR DRAINAGE BASINS.
THERE'S BASICALLY THE TWO SYSTEMS THAT GO TO ALLEN THAT GO INTO THEIR STORES WHO WERE OUTFALL ARE HELD IN A BIG REGIONAL DETENTION POND WITHIN MORGAN'S FARMS AND THEN THIS IS THE THIRD BASE AND IT COMES DOWN, WHAT YOU'RE SEEING THERE IS AN EASEMENT BASICALLY, IT'S A DETENTION POND.
WE'RE HOLDING BACK THE FLOWS, RESTRICTING THEM BACK TO EXISTING CONDITION AND THEN THERE'S AN EASEMENT ON THE ADJOINING PROPERTY OWNER THAT GOES THROUGH WHITE STONE TO BASICALLY OUTFALL WHERE IT NEEDS TO GO TO THE ULTIMATE CONDITIONS.
>> THERE'S RETENTION TIME EXTRA RIGHT THERE.
>> IT'S DETENTION IT'S A DRY POND BUT YES, SIR. THERE IS POD.
>> STILL THE WATER TIME, BUT OTHERWISE IT'S DRY?
>> THERE'S A SERIES OF CONCRETE FLUIDS THAT WILL HANDLE LOW FLOW CONDITIONS AS WELL SO THE GOAL IS BASICALLY THAT IT DOESN'T HOLD ANY WATER OTHER THAN DURING RAIN EVENTS.
>> HOW MANY GALLONS WOULD IT HOLD?
>> WHAT IS OUR VOLUME ON THAT POND? SEE IF I CAN FIND THAT FOR YOU REAL QUICK.
IT LOOKS LIKE IN 100 YEAR EVENT, IT CAN HOLD BACK ABOUT 81,000 CUBIC FEET.
>> THERE'S A LOT AND I THINK BLOCK F, LOT 26 THAT IS IDENTIFIED AS CITY OF PARKER THERE AND I KNOW THAT CERTAIN ACREAGE WAS DEDICATED TO THE CITY FOR ITEMS THAT WE NEED TO TAKE CARE SO IN THAT PERSPECTIVE IS THAT THE SINGULAR LOT THAT WAS DEDICATED TO PARKER OR IS THAT JUST THAT ONE WITHIN THAT PHASE?
[00:25:02]
THAT IS THE FUTURE WATER TOWER SITE THAT EVERYTHING HAS BEEN STUBBED OUT TO YOU.
>> WHAT'S THE ACREAGE OF THAT PARTICULAR LOT?
>> THEN THEY DEVELOPED AGREEMENT FROM WHAT I READ SAID THAT THERE'S GOING TO BE FOUR ACRES DEDICATED TO THE CITY.
>> I THINK THERE WERE SOME AMENDMENTS TO THAT AGREEMENT AFTER THAT BECAUSE THERE WAS ORIGINALLY A FIRE STATION THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO GO IN, AND THAT FIRE STATION WAS NULLIFIED.
THAT WAS PART OF THAT FOUR ACRES SO THAT WAS NEVER PUT IT.
>> SO WE DIDN'T SEE IT [OVERLAPPING].
>> THAT WAY BEFORE I WAS HERE SO THERE WAS AMENDMENTS THEM TO THAT AGREEMENT.
>> IS THERE A PACKET AMENDMENT THAT SAYS IT DROPPED THE 1.5 OR WHAT?
>> I'D HAVE TO GO BACK AND IT'S BEEN YEARS SINCE I'VE LOOKED AT THAT.
>> FROM MY MEMORY AND MEMORY ONLY, THE WATER TOWER WE'RE SUPPOSED TO BE IN ONE OF THE NORTHERN LOT AND THEN WHEN THE CITY OF ALLEN WANTED OR THE SCHOOL DISTRICT WANTED TO PUT THE BUS BARNEY ON SOME OF THE LAND, WENT TO THEM, THEN IT CAME BACK, BUT BY THAT TIME WE MOVE THE WATER TOWER FROM THAT LOCATION TO THIS LOCATION AND I THINK AT THAT SAME TIME, WE KNEW THAT THE FIRE STATION WASN'T GOING TO GO.
>> WHAT WAS THAT? [LAUGHTER] I'M TRYING TO LOOK UP.
>> WHEN THIS WAS ORIGINALLY WHERE THE WATER TOWER IS GOING TO BE UP NORTH, ALMOST AN ALLEN AND THEN THE BUS BORN CAME IN OR WAS GOING TO [OVERLAPPING]
>> THERE WAS SOME MOVE IT AROUND THAT STUFF AND THIS CURRENT LOCATION, AND IT SHOWS HERE WE HAVE A 16-INCH AROUND TO THAT LINE AND THIS IS THE BEST LOCATION FOR THAT.
BACK-AND-FORTH WITH ADDITIONAL STUDIES THAT THE CITY HAD RUNNING ON THAT SIDE.
>> DOES ANYONE HAVE A QUESTION, SORT OF, KIND OF?
>> NO. [LAUGHTER] I LIKE TO KNOW WHAT THE ACTUAL AGREEMENT WAS AND WHETHER THAT HAS BEEN MET OR NOT.
>> YEAH, AND I'D LIKE TO KNOW WHO NEGOTIATED THAT AGREEMENT.
WERE YOU PART OF IT, LUKE OR WAS IT BEFORE YOU? SO THIS IS LIKE FLANAGAN'S TIME? [BACKGROUND] CAN I GET AN APPROXIMATE YEAR?
>> THAT'S WHAT I'M GOING TO FIND OUT.
>> IT SHOULD BE IN THE BACK END. [BACKGROUND]
>> OTHER [INAUDIBLE] SAYING THAT THE ONLY OTHER QUESTION I HAD WAS THAT DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT TALKED ABOUT A TRAIL SYSTEM.
WAS THERE EVER A TRAIL SYSTEM PUT ON FOR THIS?
>> THE TRAIL SYSTEM REQUIRED, I BELIEVE, WAS SCORED ON CHAPARRAL, SO THERE IS A SIDEWALK THAT WAS INSTALLED ON THE NORTH SIDE OF CHAPARRAL THAT PROVIDES THE CONNECTIVITY AND THEN ALSO GOES DOWN WHITE STORK DRIVE, WHICH MY UNDERSTANDING WAS WHAT WAS IN CONFORMANCE WITH THE CITY REQUIREMENTS SINCE WAR.
>> WAS THAT PRESENTED AS A TRAIL SYSTEM TO THE COUNCIL?
>> THAT'S THE INTENT OF THE PROJECT.
IT GOES ALL THE WAY BACK TO TWO AND THREE AND THAT WAS THE REQUIREMENT.
I THINK THERE'S A MAP OR AN EXHIBIT THAT WENT WITH THAT AT THE TIME THAT SHOWED WHERE THOSE TRAIL SYSTEM WOULD ULTIMATELY CONNECT TO.
BUT IT WAS DOWN CHAPARRAL AND THEN DOWN WHITE STORK TO PROVIDE THE CONNECTIVITY TO THE DEVELOPMENT TO THE SOUTH.
>> THERE'S THIS A SIDEWALK OR SOMETHING THAT GOES DOWN CHAPARRAL, LIKE THE TRAIL SYSTEM?
>> YES, SIR. THERE WAS THE FOREFOOT, THE TYPICAL SECTION THAT WAS APPROVED.
>> DID YOU FIND ANYTHING? [BACKGROUND] WHAT YEAR? DID THIS GO BEFORE PLANNING AND ZONING?
>> DID THEY HAVE ANY CONCERNS?
>> [BACKGROUND] I WOULDN'T BARGAIN NEGOTIATION.
>> REGARDLESS OF WHETHER IT'S FOUR ACRES, THREE ACRES, OR TWO ACRES, I GUESS THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT, IS THE CITY HAPPY THAT THAT PARTICULAR LOT COVERS EVERYTHING THAT IT NEEDS?
>> IT'S 1.5 ACRES AND THAT'S PLENTY OF ROOM FOR WATER POWER.
[00:30:02]
>> THAT'S THE ONLY THING THAT WE'RE GOING TO NEED, THERE IS THE WATER POWER?
>> WHAT IS TALKED ABOUT A FIRE STATION BEFORE, BUT IT IS NOT NEEDED.
THE FIRE STATION I THINK IT WAS ABANDONED.
THE WATER IS WHAT WE'RE GOING TO NEED.
>> LUKE IS LOOKING. [LAUGHTER] I'M GOING TO GIVE HIM A COUPLE OF MORE MINUTES.
>> BECAUSE I HAD ASKED MIKE CHEF ABOUT THAT.
[BACKGROUND] THE FOUR ACRES IS ON THE PAGE 133.
IT WAS MY UNDERSTANDING AT THE TIME WHEN THIS NEW FIRE STATION WAS BUILT THAT WHEN THEY DID THE ISO RATINGS ON IT IN THE COAL TIMES, IT WAS NOT NEEDED FOR THE SECONDARY FIRE STATION TO GO IN IN THAT AREA.
THAT'S WHY THE IDEA WAS ABANDONED DURING THAT TIMEFRAME.
THAT'S THE BEST I CAN TELL YOU FROM THAT.
BUT I'D HAVE TO GO BACK AND START RESEARCHING IT ALL OVER AGAIN, WHERE ARE THE OTHER TWO-AND-A-HALF ACRES.
>> WHERE IS IT THAT WE NEGOTIATED AND AGREED TO, AS JIM MENTIONED?
>> [INAUDIBLE] ACRE AND A HALF, AND GUYS NO LONGER NEEDED A FIRE STATION, [OVERLAPPING] NO LONGER UTILIZE THAT AREA AS THE FIRE STATION.
THAT'S WHEN IT WAS REDUCED DOWN TO MAKE IT HAPPEN.
I BELIEVE YOU'LL HAVE [INAUDIBLE] AND I WANT TO SAY BACK OFF ON THAT TO CONFIRM WHAT SIZE AND EVERYTHING ELSE THAT WE HAD TO DO.
YOU'VE GOT SOME ADDITIONAL STUFF THAT WE'VE GOT TO DO FOR THE LOTS FOR THE SEPTIC SYSTEMS WITHIN A RADIUS OF THIS WATER BALANCE.
ALL OF THAT CAN PRODUCE NEW DETAILS THERE, BUT ALL OF THAT WAS HANDLED AT THAT POINT, WHEN THE CITY NO LONGER REQUIRED THE FIRE STATION, BUT STILL WANTING A LOT TO BE ABLE TO UTILIZE THE WATER TOWER.
>> MAYBE TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION DIRECTLY, I THINK ALL OF THE ACREAGE WAS DETERMINED IN THE LAND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENTS.
>> I'M NOT SEEING IT. THAT'S WHY I'M ASKING.
>> WELL, MAYBE LATE TO ASK, I GUESS TERRY, TO SOME EXTENT IS AS WE PUT IN ALL THESE LOTS, ETC., AND KEEP APPROVING ADDITIONAL PLANTS, I KNOW WE'VE TALKED A LOT ABOUT DRAINAGE AND WE'VE TALKED A LOT ABOUT THE CULVERTS AND WHOSE RESPONSIBILITY IT IS TO MAINTAIN THE CULVERT AND MAKE SURE IT'S CLEAR,
[00:35:03]
ETC., SO THE WATER FLOWS, ETC.TO MY UNDERSTANDING, BACK WHEN IT WAS BEING PUT IN TO CLOSING PAPERS OR HLA OR WHERE IT WAS BEING PUT IN AT ONE POINT IN TIME, THEY HAVE NO PLACE.
[BACKGROUND] I GUESS THE QUESTION IS, AS WE GO THROUGH THESE AND THINK ABOUT IT, AVIAN FUTURE, THEN WE NEED TO DISCUSS TRADITIONS OF HOW TO CONTROL OUR MAINTENANCE OF CULVERT.
>>YEAH. SOME OF THAT GOES TO WHAT'S IN THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT, THERE'S SO MANY FACTORS THAT GO INTO THAT.
>> AGAIN, NOT TO HOLD THIS UP, I'M OKAY GIVEN THAT THE CITY HAS SAID THAT THE 1.5 ACRES IS FINE.
>> I THINK THEY ADJUSTED IT IN ONE OF THE PHASING DEVELOPMENTS, I'D HAVE TO GO BACK AND READ EVERY ONE OF THESE AGENDA MEMOS.
>> I GUESS MY QUESTION IS, ARE YOU ALL COMFORTABLE WITH GOING AHEAD AND PROCEEDING ON THIS THIS EVENING AND GET THE INFORMATION TO US ON WHAT HAPPENED?
>> I THINK THAT I WOULD BE WILLING TO MAKE A MOTION PURSUANT THAT WE FIND THAT DOCUMENT TO DOCUMENT THAT THAT WAS DONE BACK THEN.
IT IS DATED SEPTEMBER 3RD, 2003.
IT WAS SIGNED BY FOUR MAYORS AGO, AND IT SAYS IT WOULD BE 246 HOUSES ON THIS.
IF THERE'S ANOTHER DOCUMENT THAT SUPERSEDES IT, I DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO IT.
>> THAT'S WHAT COUNCILMEMBER KERCHO ARE TALKING ABOUT, AND I THINK THAT WE LOOKED AT IT AND WAS ONLY 218 HOUSES ON THERE.
>> I HAVE A LIST OF ALL THE DEVELOPMENTS AND WITHIN PARKER RANCH PHASES 1 THROUGH 5, I DON'T THINK I'M MISSING ONE.
>> THE ONE I'M READING SAYS THAT NO MORE THAN 246 SINGLE FAMILY LOTS [OVERLAPPING] AND IS SIGNED BY MR. HAMILTON.
>> I THINK THE QUESTION IS OVER THE THREE ACRE THAT WHERE THE FIRE STATION LOT WENT.
I WISH MIKE WAS HERE, BUT I KNOW HE'S OUT OF TOWN BECAUSE HE KNOWS THAT ANSWER BECAUSE HE WAS THE ONE THAT WORKED ON IT.
I JUST DON'T REMEMBER WHERE HE POINTED OUT TO ME WHEN I FIRST GOT HERE.
[BACKGROUND] I CAN'T REMEMBER TO BE HONEST WITH YOU.
IT WAS ORIGINALLY OVER HERE, THE [INAUDIBLE] WITH THE DRAINAGE BASIN, SO WE MOVED IT OVER HERE.
ISN'T THAT CORRECT, GARY? IT WAS ORIGINALLY LOT 2 AND BLOCK I, AND THEN WE MOVED IT OVER.
>> MADAM MAYOR, WHAT WAS YOUR QUESTION?
>> MY QUESTION IS, ARE YOU ALL COMFORTABLE WITH PRECEDING TONIGHT ON THIS ITEM OR NOT?
>> I THINK I'M READY TO PROCEED.
I DON'T THINK IT WOULD BE NICE TO HEAR THE ANSWER TO THIS, BUT IT SOUNDS AS THOUGH I'M SATISFIED WITH WHAT'S HAPPENED, BUT FROM A DOCUMENTATION STANDPOINT, IT WOULD BE HELPFUL.
IT'S NICE TO HAVE OUR DOCUMENTATION ALL IN ORDER SO THAT WE CAN CALL UP THROUGH HERE.
>> CAN WE APPROVE IT SUBJECT TO NOT VIOLATING ANY AGREEMENTS THAT ARE WRITTEN THAT WE DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO?
>> IF YOU DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO, IT'S HARD.
>> AT THIS TIME. YOU COULDN'T FIND HIM TOMORROW IN THE DAYLIGHT.
>> EXACTLY. THAT'S THE POINT THAT IT'S NOT LIKE THIS IS SOMEBODY WE CAN GO BACK.
>> I KNOW YOU KNOW THAT, BUT WE DON'T.
>> CAN I MAKE A MOTION THAT WE APPROVE PARKER RANCH STATE-SPACE FIVE BY FINAL PLOT, LOTS 1,60,16 BLOCK E LOTS 26, BLOCK F LOTS 1 TO 10, BLOCK H LOTS 1 TO 9, BLOCK I LOTS 1X AND 2 TO 6, BLOCK J 337, LIKE 37, RESIDENTIAL LOTS IN ONE COMMON AREA.
>> I WOULD SECOND THAT MOTION, MADAM MAYOR.
>> OKAY. WE HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCIL MAN THEIR LUNCH AND A SECOND BY MAYOR PRO TEM RAY TO ACCEPT PARKER RANCH A STATE-SPACE 5, BY FINAL PLOT.
ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? IF NOT, I'LL CALL FOR YOUR VOTE.
ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, PLEASE RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND.
ANY OPPOSE? NON SHOWING FINAL PLOT NUMBER 5, PASSES 5,0.
[00:40:01]
>> OKAY. THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE.
LUKE, I WILL ASK YOU TO PLEASE RESEARCH THAT AND GIVE THE INFORMATION TO ALL THE COUNCIL AS SOON AS SHE CAN.
>> I'M DOING IT RIGHT NOW COMING UP WITH ANY THINGS RIGHT NOW.
[7. UPDATE(S)]
>> NO. RIGHT NOW, YOU'RE GOING TO DO AN UPDATE ON ENTERPRISE.
>> ENTERPRISE, A CHIEF CELLS BEFORE IT HAS YOUR TRUCK, WE'RE SENDING DOWN THE EQUIPMENT NEXT WEEK FOR THAT TRUCK.
WE SHOULD HOPEFULLY HAVE THAT ONE OUTFIT BY END OF THE YEAR, MAYBE KNOCK ON WOOD.
HOPEFULLY. THE PENNSYLVANIA ONE IS THIS AND THEN THE LAST ONE, THE CHEVY TRUCK RIGHT NOW.
ALSO, I GOT AN EMAIL EARLIER TODAY FROM STEPHANIE LATHAM.
WE HAVE THE FOUR TO INTERCEPTOR SUV'S ARE OPENING UP SOON FOR THE 2025 ALLOCATIONS.
IF WE'RE GOING TO PUT THAT, GET THOSE WHEN YOU START GETTING OUR ALLOCATION NUMBERS TO THEM ON THAT.
>> WHERE ARE WE WITH GETTING AN UPDATE FROM ENTERPRISE?
I'M GOING TO START GOING THROUGH THAT AND LOOKING AT THOSE NUMBERS.
I'VE GOT TO LOOK THROUGH THAT AND MAKE SURE I UNDERSTAND IT, BEFORE I EXPLAIN IT.
>> IS STEPHANIE GOING TO DO IN THE CHART FOR US?
>> YES. SHE'S GOT A NEW CHART.
I'VE GOT TO GO THROUGH ALL OF THAT, MAKE SURE I UNDERSTAND IT BECAUSE I WANT TO MAKE SURE I'M FAMILIAR ENOUGH TO EXPLAIN IT TO YOU ALL.
THAT WAY, WE'RE NOT LOSING ANYTHING IN TRANSLATION AT THAT POINT.
>> IS SHE GOING TO BE ABLE TO BE HERE AT OUR NEXT MEETING OR ABOVE?
>> I'M TRYING TO WORK WITH HER, HUSBAND GOT A NEW WORK SCHEDULE.
HE WORKS NIGHTS AND THEY'VE GOT CHILDCARE.
WE'RE TRYING TO WORK OUT SOMETHING, BUT I DON'T KNOW IF I'LL BE ABLE TO WORK THAT OUT.
WORST CASE SCENARIO, SHE'S GOING TO GIVE ME ALL THE INFORMATION AND I'LL TRY TO GET ALL THE INFORMATION.
>> SHE CAN BE AVAILABLE ONLINE.
>> YEAH, THEY'VE GOT A REALLY YOUNG ONE THOUGH.
SO THERE'S SOME STRUGGLES THERE.
WE'RE TRYING TO WORK WITH HER ON THAT.
>> IT WOULD BE HELPFUL IF SOMETIME IN THE NEAR FUTURE SHE COULDN'T BE HERE BECAUSE I'M SURE SOME OF US HAVE QUESTIONS WE WOULD LIKE TO ASK.
>> YEAH. IF YOU DO HAVE SOME QUESTIONS, IF YOU COULD SEND THEM TO ME.
MAYBE I CAN GET YOUR EMAIL THEM TO ME, SO MAYBE WE CAN KNOCK SOME OF THOSE OUT, SOME OF THAT INTERMEDIARY STUFF.
SHE SENT ME A LOT OF INFORMATION.
I HAVEN'T HAD TIME TO GO THROUGH IT YET.
THE ORIGINAL FILE SHE SENT ME DURING THANKSGIVING WAS CORRUPTED, SO WE HAD TO GET THAT RECENT AND I FINALLY GOT IT. I'M GOING TO START GOING THROUGH THAT.
>> 2551, ELECTRIC LINES ARE BEING REPLACED RIGHT NOW, POLES ARE BEING INSTALLED RIGHT NOW.
ALL THAT'S GOING ON FROM WHAT WE CAN SEE OUT THEIR.
>> NOTHING ELSE REALLY TAKEN PLACE.
YEAH, THAT'S ALL WE'VE GOT RIGHT NOW GOING ON ON THAT PROJECT.
WE'LL PROBABLY NEXT TWO MONTHS WILL PROBABLY START SEEING A LOT MORE ACTIVITY ON THAT PROJECT ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY START WORKING FROM PARKER ROAD TOWARDS HOGUE IN THAT OPEN AREA.

THAT'S MORE THAN I KNEW THEY DID.
I DID NOT GO THAT WAY TODAY FOR LUNCH.
>> THEY GOT SOME EQUIPMENT MOVING IN.
>> I'LL GO THAT WAY ONE DAY FOR LUNCH.
I DON'T GO THAT WAY AND LOOK WHAT THEY DID.
SO YEAH, THEY APPARENTLY THEY MOVE SOME EQUIPMENT AND TODAY.

THEN IS THERE ANOTHER ITEM I HAVE ON THE.

THEY'RE PUTTING ALL THAT TO CIVICPLUS RIGHT NOW.
THE ORIGINAL STUFF THAT WE WENT OVER AS THE COMMITTEE,
[00:45:02]
THEY'RE GETTING ALL THAT PUT IN THE FILE FOR CIVICPLUS AND SENT OFF TO THEM.WE HOPEFULLY SHOULD HAVE ALL THAT.
>> I THINK WE TALKED ABOUT US TAKING A LOOK AT THAT STUFF BEFORE IT GOES BACK TO CIVICPLUS.
THE WEBSITE COMMITTEE, TAKE A LOOK AT THAT INFORMATION.
>> YOU NEED TO SET A COMMITTEE MEETING.
>> WILL YOU SET THE COMMITTEE MEETING?
>> THIS WAS THE GENERAL INFORMATION.
THIS IS NOT EVERYTHING SET IN STONE.
THIS IS WHAT WEBSITES WE LIKE, GIVING THEM AN IDEA.
>> THAT'S YOUR JUDGMENT, BUT LET'S MAKE SURE WE KNOW.
>>THEY'RE IN THE GROUP BECAUSE I'D HATE FOR THEM TO THINK THAT THEY'RE GOING TO BUILD SOMETHING FROM THAT.
>> NO. THIS IS GET AN IDEA OF WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT.
THAT WAY THERE AREN'T PEOPLE CAN LOOK AT IT AND SAY, OKAY, THIS IS KIND OF THE AREAS WE'RE LOOKING AT BASED OFF, ALL THOSE WEBSITES THAT WE IDENTIFIED IN THE COMMITTEE MEETING THAT THEY TAKE NOTES ON.
>> ONE THING I THINK IS IMPORTANT AND I'M NOT A TECH PERSON, SO EXCUSE ME IF THIS IS STUPID, BUT WE NEED TO MAKE SURE WHATEVER WE DO IT, WE'LL WORK ON VARIOUS PLATFORMS, WHETHER IT'S A MOBILE, WHETHER IT'S A CELL PHONE, WHETHER IT'S ON DESKTOP.
>> BECAUSE PEOPLE USE DIFFERENT INSTRUMENTS TO ACCESS OUR WEBSITE.
>> THAT'S TRUE. AND THEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO ACCOMMODATE THAT.
MOST PEOPLE ARE ABLE TO DO THAT.
>> LIKE I SAID, I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT IT.
>> I'M CONFIDENT THEY CAN HANDLE IT.
>> THERE ARE TIMES THE FORMATTING.
>> I DON'T KNOW K STATE GRADS.
>> IF YOU FEEL TO STAY YOU GOT TO TALK.
WE'VE ONLY HAD ONE NEWSLETTER GO OUT.
THE REVIEWS ARE MIXED AND WILL PROBABLY SIT DOWN AND TALK ABOUT THAT AND SEE WHERE TO GO FROM HERE BECAUSE THERE'S NOTHING WRITTEN IN STONE AT THIS TIME.
COMP PLAN WITH CITY COUNCIL AND PLANNING AND ZONING.
WE'RE TRYING FOR AN ACT OF GOD TO HAVE EVERYBODY BE AVAILABLE ON [LAUGHTER] THE SAME DAY AT THE SAME TIME SO WE CAN HAVE A JOINT MEETING.
LUKE IS BUSY HURTING CATS AND TRYING TO DO THAT AND AS SOON AS THAT'S DONE, WE WILL LET EVERYBODY KNOW.
>> CAN I MAKE A COMMENT THERE.
I KNOW THAT WE TRIED FOR DECEMBER 7TH, WHICH I GUESS WOULD HAVE BEEN COMBINED MEETING, WHICH DIDN'T WORK AT LEAST FOR SOME PEOPLE INCLUSIVE OF MYSELF.
>> THE NEXT MEETING FOR PLANNING AND ZONING WOULD BE WHEN?
>> I DON'T KNOW OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD.
>> WHEN I WAS ON PLANNING AND ZONING, IT WASN'T SCHEDULED TO AS RUSSELL WOULD CALL THE MEETING BECAUSE WE HAD TO REACT TO SOMETHING FOR THE MOST PART.
HE WASN'T INTO ANALYSIS PARALYSIS.
>> NOW WITH THE PLOTS OF METAL, THERE ARE PRETTY REGULAR DIETS, I BELIEVE. WHEN IS THE NEXT?
>> WHAT EVERYONE'S AFTER DECEMBER 7TH? IF SO SCHEDULED? DECEMBER 7TH, CANNON CAME UP LATE.
I THINK IF WE KNOW WHAT THE DAY WE CAN DETERMINE NOW WHETHER PEOPLE FROM COUNCIL ARE AVAILABLE.
>> DECEMBER 7TH DID NOT WORK OUT.
>> JANUARY 11TH IS THE NEXT DAY.
>> JANUARY 11TH. I CAN'T ANSWER FOR P&Z.
I ASSUME THEY WOULD HAVE A QUORUM IF THAT'S A REGULAR MEETING.
>> JANUARY 11TH WOULD BE OKAY FOR ME.
>> I THINK IT'D BE OKAY FOR ME FOR THAT TO CHECK.
>> I CAN'T WORK OUT. DO WE NEED A SUPER QUORUM FOR THAT? IS THERE ANOTHER ONE SCHEDULED [LAUGHTER] 11TH?
>> WE DIDN'T HEAR FROM COUNCIL AGAIN ON THE 11TH.
>> I SHOULD BE OKAY ON JANUARY 11TH.
>> LUKE, WILL YOU AND PATTI, PLEASE SEE IF WE CAN HAVE A JOINT MEETING.
>> WELL, SORRY. I DON'T KNOW IF WE HEARD FROM COUNCILMEMBER [INAUDIBLE] .
>> EVERYBODY HERE SAID, OKAY, YOU'RE GOING TO CHECK YOUR SCHEDULE AND THOUGHTS.
>> I'M DEFINITELY OUT OF TOWN.
>> YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BE HERE. WHAT CAN I SAY?
[00:50:08]
>> LET'S GO AHEAD AND TARGET THAT NIGHT, AT LEAST AS A STARTING POINT.
HOPEFULLY WE CAN MAKE SOME PROGRESS AND THEN GET SOMETHING REGULAR GOING AS WE SEE.
REDUCING SOMETHING ELSE, EITHER YOU OR PATTI, PLEASE, NOTIFYING PEOPLE THAT WE WILL TRY TO DO THAT ON JANUARY 11TH.
>> DO YOU SEE THAT AS A ONE MEETING EVENT OR IS IT GOING TO BE A FEBRUARY AND MARCH AND SO ON? IF SO, LET'S GO AHEAD AND SET A FEBRUARY DATE NOW.
>> I CAN'T ANSWER THAT UNTIL WE SEE HOW IT GOES.
>> IT MAY BE THAT IT WON'T TAKE LONG.
WE'RE CLOSE AND A LOT OF THINGS I THINK. THAT'S MY OPINION.
I DON'T KNOW THAT EVERYBODY AGREES WITH THAT.
I DON'T KNOW THAT EVERYBODY HAS SEEN EVERYTHING.
IT'S HARD TO SAY AT THIS POINT IN TIME.
I'M GOING TO ASK, AMY, WILL YOU DO THE UPDATE ON TEXAS COMMISSION ON ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY?
>> YES. THAT'S A BRIEF UPDATE.
THE PREVIOUSLY SCHEDULED HEARING ON THE MERITS FOR MED NUMBER 7 HAS BEEN CONTINUED FROM THE DATE OF NOVEMBER 28TH THROUGH THE 30TH TO FEBRUARY 13TH THROUGH THE 15TH, PENDING MEDIATION BETWEEN THE PARTIES, WHICH IS TENTATIVELY TO BE DECEMBER 14TH.
>> I WASN'T SURE WHO'S GOING TO DO CIP, WHETHER TERRY, JIM, OR AMANDA, IS GOING TO DO.
>> MADAM, PATTI GOT A QUESTION ON YOU.
>> WHEN YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT JANUARY 11TH, THE P&Z IS NOW MEETING ON PUZZLE AT WHAT TIME BEFORE THAT WOULD YOU [OVERLAPPING]
>> AT 5:00. I DIDN'T KNOW IF [INAUDIBLE]
>> HOW LONG DO YOU ANTICIPATE THAT MEETING BEING IF YOU CAN GIVE ME A GUESS.
IS IT JUST GOING TO BE ON ONE PLANT OR?
>> WE HAVEN'T RECEIVED THEM YET.
>> WE DON'T HAVE A SUBMITTAL FOR JANUARY.
>> WELL, I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE CAN BE HERE IN THE DAYTIME BECAUSE THAT MEANS WE EITHER COME IN AT LIKE 3:00, OR WE TRIED TO MEET AFTER.
>> HAVING AFTER SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD PROPOSAL.
>> BECAUSE I CAN'T IMAGINE THEM GOING FAR LONGER THAN 7:00 AND THEN WE COULD JOIN THEM AT 7:00, TRAP THEM IN THE [INAUDIBLE]
>> IF THERE'S A MEETING, IT'S TYPICALLY A 30-MINUTE PERSONAL MEETING.
>> I JUST WANTED TO GET A GENERAL IDEA THAT'S WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT.
>> BECAUSE WE MIGHT SAY 6 O'CLOCK, EVERYBODY BE READY OR EVEN 5:30.
THEN THAT WAY IF IT'S NOT, WE CAN DO SOME FOR A WHILE AND COME BACK.
I MEAN, I PLAN ON BEING AROUND SO.
>> THAT'LL WORK. WHO WANTS TO DO THE UPDATE ON CIP?
>> I'LL JUST BRIEFLY MENTION ON CIP LOOP.
GARY AND I MET TODAY TO GO OVER SOME OF THE OUTSTANDING ITEMS AND TRYING TO IDENTIFY HOW WE'RE GOING TO GET THOSE THINGS MOVING FORWARD SO THAT WE HAVE THE ANSWERS ON THEM SO THAT WE CAN THEN COME BACK TO THE COUNCIL AND FINALIZE THE REST OF THIS.
I THINK IT MAY BE THAT WE'LL BRING FORWARD THE INFORMATION SPECIFICALLY ON THE FINANCIAL.
AND I DIDN'T TALK TO GARY ABOUT THE FINANCIAL.
WE'LL BE GETTING WITH GRANT ON THAT PIECE FOR US TO JUST TAKE A LOOK AT THAT AND SEE SOME OF THESE OTHER ITEMS. BUT I THINK LUKE'S GOT A GOOD HANDLE ON WHAT'S NEEDED AND I'M GOING TO TAKE HIS LEAD ON WHEN WE GET THAT.
WE'RE GOING TO TOUCH BASE AND IDENTIFIED TIMING.
>> WE'RE STILL LOOKING FOR EXHIBITS. [LAUGHTER] WE DIDN'T FIND THE EXHIBITS FOR THAT CHAPARRAL.
[00:55:03]
KENNY YOU GET ANYTHING FROM THE POLICE DEPARTMENT?
>> WE HAVE SOME OTHER DONATIONS TO TAKE INTO THE CITY.
[8. ACCEPTANCE OF DONATION(S) FOR POLICE, FIRE, AND CITY STAFF FOR THE RECORD (Each valued at between $0 - $500)]
ONE WAS FROM JAY FOSTER FARMS WHO DONATED GROUND BEEF DURING PARKER FEST VALUED AT $80 TO THE POLICE DEPARTMENT.THE OTHER IS [INAUDIBLE], WHO DONATED A SMOKED TURKEY VALUED AT $125 TO THE POLICE DEPARTMENT.
WE THANK ALL THE PEOPLE THAT MAKE DONATIONS TO THE CITY.
WE JUST APPRECIATE YOU SO MUCH.
YOU WERE SO GENEROUS TO US AND WE DO APPRECIATE IT.
[9. FUTURE AGENDA ITEMS]
>> I'VE GOT A COUPLE. ONE IS FOR THE JANUARY 16TH MEETING.
>> FOR THE JANUARY 16TH MEETING.
I KNOW THAT WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THAT THERE'S GOING TO BE A CHECK OF THE CITY PUMP STATION, THE ELECTRICAL SWITCH GEARS, ETC, SOMETIME IN DECEMBER.
IT'D BE HELPFUL TO HAVE THAT ON THE AGENDA AS FAR AS WHAT THE OUTCOME OF THAT WAS.
THE SECOND ITEM IS, I KNOW THAT WE'VE TALKED ABOUT BEFORE ABOUT POTENTIALLY SOME TYPE OF PROJECT PLANNING SOFTWARE OR WHAT HAVE YOU AS WE'RE GOING THROUGH CIP.
I THOUGHT AGAIN THAT MAY BE MORE LIKE A RECORD RETENTION TYPE OF SOFTWARE.
I KNOW THAT OBVIOUSLY WE HAVE SOME DIFFICULTY IN FINDING CERTAIN RECORDS.
PERHAPS A RECORD RETENTION SYSTEM COULD BE BETTER IN AND OF ITSELF.
LOOKING AT SOME OTHER ITEMS, I KNOW THAT IT APPEARS THAT PART OF CITY COUNCIL'S DUTIES ARE TO REVIEW RECORD MANAGEMENT PROGRAM WITHIN THE CITY.
TO MY KNOWLEDGE, WE HAVEN'T DONE THAT AS OF LATELY, SO I'D LIKE TO PLACE THAT ON THE JANUARY 16TH MEETING AS WELL TO GET AN IDEA OF WHAT OUR RECORD RETENTION SYSTEM IS SO THAT WE CAN LOOK AT THAT AND IDENTIFY IF THERE'S BETTER WAYS OR SOMETHING TO LOOK AT FOR ADDITIONAL SOFTWARE OR WHAT HAVE YOU.
>> WELL, I CAN SAY THAT THEY WILL BOTH BE ON A FUTURE AGENDA ITEM.
I MIGHT NEED TO LOOK AT SOME SELF TO SEE WHAT DATE THEY WOULD BE.
I SEE NO PROBLEM WITH THE JANUARY 16TH FOR THE PUMP STATION BECAUSE I IMAGINE IT WILL BE COMPLETED BY THE END OF THAT.
>> I THINK IT'S DONE NOW, ISN'T IT, GARY?
>> WE'VE DONE THAT TESTING, AND WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TOGETHER.
>> ON THE RECORD RETENTION, I HAVE TO MAKE SURE STAFF CAN GET EVERYTHING READY THAT WILL BE NEEDED.
HOPEFULLY, THEY COULD DO IT BY THEN.
BUT I DON'T KNOW THAT IF WE CAN'T DO IT THEN, WE DO IT AT THE NEXT MEETING, WHICH I THINK IS FEBRUARY 6TH.
>> YEAH, I THINK THERE WOULD BE FINE.
BUT AS YOU BRING THAT UP, JANUARY HAS GOT I GUESS FOR TUESDAYS IN IT.
IT WOULD SEEM A WASTE IF WE DIDN'T SCHEDULE ANOTHER MEETING SOMETIME IN JANUARY.
>> ARE YOU MAKING A REQUEST FOR IT?
>> I KNOW HAVE MADE MY SCHEDULE OF TRAVEL AROUND OUR MEETING AND MY JANUARY IS ALREADY BOOKED ON AMERICAN AIRLINES, BUT MY FEBRUARY IS WIDE OPEN.
>> I TELL YOU WHAT, I WILL LOOK AT THAT AND I'LL LOOK AT WHAT WE'VE GOT.
IF IT CAN BE DONE AND THERE'S A REASON FOR IT, THEN I'LL NOTIFY EVERYBODY ABOUT CALLING A MEETING.
>> I UNDERSTAND. THAT'S FAIR. I WOULD ALSO ASK FOR THE CIP SIDE THAT THAT BE CONSIDERED FOR ONE OF THOSE TUESDAYS AS WELL.
EITHER A CITY COUNCIL MEETING OR FOR CIP ONCE THEY PULL THEIR STUFF TOGETHER.
IF THEY DON'T HAVE IT BY THEN, THEN WE CAN ALWAYS CANCEL IT.
BUT IT MIGHT BE GOOD TO SEE IF WE HAVE ENOUGH PEOPLE.
I KNOW TODD SEEMS TO BE OUT JANUARY, BUT IT'D BE GOOD TO SEE WHAT OTHER TUESDAYS PERHAPS.
SO WHILE WE'RE HERE, THE REST OF US HAVE AVAILABLE FOR POTENTIALLY A CIP OR CITY COUNCIL MEETING.
[01:00:04]
>> I'M HAPPY TO HAVE MULTIPLE MEETINGS IN FEBRUARY.
IT'S JUST I'VE ALREADY GOT THINGS BOOKED.
>> WHILE WE HAVE A WHOLE BUNCH OF OTHER MEETINGS, I NEED TO HAVE A GOAL-SETTING MEETING WITH ALL OF COUNCIL SO WE CAN SET OUT OUR GOALS, SET OUT OUR PRIORITIES, BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO SET ALL THESE OTHER THINGS, THEN WE HAVE GOAL SETTING AND WE FIND OUT WHAT WE'VE DONE IS ABSOLUTELY NOT WHAT WE PRIORITIZED IN THE GOAL SETTING.
TO ME, THAT'S THE FIRST MEETING THAT NEEDS TO COME UP AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
HOPEFULLY, LUKE SENT OUT, OR PATTI HAS SENT OUT AN EMAIL TO YOU ALL ABOUT DATES FOR THAT.
IF NOT, THAT THAT WILL GO OUT VERY QUICKLY.
>> I AGREE. THE GOAL SETTING IS VERY IMPORTANT AS WELL AS THESE OTHER THINGS.
BUT I THINK WE ALL WANT TO SEE THINGS ACCOMPLISHED.
IF THERE'S THINGS THAT ARE READY, WE WANT TO MEET AND GET THEM DONE.
BUT IF STAFF IS STILL PULLING THINGS TOGETHER, WE DON'T WANT TO PUSH THINGS TOO.
>> THE OTHER THING, I WANT TO MAKE SURE, IN THE GOAL SETTING, IF WE PRIORITIZE THINGS 1, 2, 3, 4, I WOULD HATE TO SEE US ACT ON FOUR AND NOT ONE IF ONE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING, SO THAT TO SOME EXTENT DICTATES THINGS, AND EVERYBODY WILL HAVE INPUT INTO THAT.
IF YOU ALL WOULD EITHER WAIT FOR AN EMAIL FROM LUKE AND PATTI OR IF YOU WOULD SEND LUKE OR PATTI YOUR AVAILABILITY, SAY, BETWEEN NOW AND JANUARY 16TH, DAYTIME, EVENING, WHATEVER.
JUST WHEN YOU ALL COULD BE AVAILABLE. THAT WOULD HELP.
>> THEY'RE STILL USING OUR CALENDAR IN OUTLOOK.
>> MADAM MAYOR, I THINK THERE'S STILL AN OUTSTANDING ISSUE WHERE COUNCIL REQUESTED TO GO FOR RFQ FOR ENGINEERING SERVICES.
THIS WAS ON A MEETING SEVERAL MEETINGS AGO AND I WOULD LIKE TO REQUEST THAT WE HAVE AN AGENDA ITEM FOR AN UPDATE ON THAT OUTSTANDING ACTION FROM A PREVIOUS COUNCIL MEETING.
>> ANYTHING ELSE? AS YOU KNOW, YOU CAN ALWAYS IF YOU THINK OF SOMETHING LATER, JUST SEND ME AN EMAIL AND WE WILL SEE WHAT WE CAN DO.
NO PROMISES UNTIL I SEE WHAT IT IS AND THAT IT'S APPROPRIATE, BECAUSE SOMETIMES I GET EMAILS THAT WAS WONDER ABOUT PEOPLE ARE TEASING.
ANYTHING ELSE AT ALL? THEN WE ARE ADJOURNED.
IT IS 8:41.
