IN 2019 ELECTION SYSTEMS AUTHORIZED GENERAL OBLIGATION DEBT TO BE SOLD FOR SEVERAL VARIOUS PROJECTS. THIS PRESENTATION COVERS THREE ISSUANCES AND THE NEXT THREE ITEMS. SO WHAT WE'RE DOING TONIGHT IS THIS WILL DESIGNATE THREE PRICING OFFICERS TO GO TO MARKET FOR OUR DEBT SALE. WE'LL GO TOE MARKET AT A FUTURE DATE RIGHT NOW. THAT'S SLATED TO BE JUNE 10TH. AND THEN BECAUSE OF MARKET VOLATILITY, IT WILL YOU'RE AUTHORIZING US NOT TO PRY TRANSACTED NOT TO EXCEED LEVELS. DO YOU WANT TO TALK JUST A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE PROJECTS THAT ARE INVOLVED WITH THIS SALE. THE FIRST IS A 2015 VOTER AUTHORIZATION ON PUBLIC SAFETY. THIS MONEY WILL BE USED FOR THREE DIFFERENT THINGS WOULD BE USED FOR THE ONGOING IMPROVEMENTS AT THE PUBLIC SAFETY BUILDING FOR FUTURE FIRE STATION LAND ACQUISITION. AND THEN NEW RESTROOMS AT THE POLICE GUN RANGE. THEY'RE MOVING ON 2019 VOTER AUTHORIZATION FOR PARKS. THAT'S A LARGE AMOUNT, FOUR DIFFERENT PROJECTS. THERE'S A LARGE AMOUNT FOR PARKS.

MONEY IS FOR US TO IMPROVE OUR PUBLIC WORKS FACILITY AND THEN THE STREETS. DOLLARS ARE TO BUILD AND MAINTAIN. SOME STAR STREETS, AND I HAVE A LONG LIST OF PROJECTS THERE. WE USUALLY DO A 20 YEAR AMATEUR IZATION. TRY NOT TO DO ANY MORE THAN THAT WE HAVE IN OUR TIME HERE. SO WEII MAINTAINED THAT AND WE DO CONSERVATIVE LEVEL DEBT SERVICE SO WE CAN MAINTAIN OUR TAX RATE AND NOT INCREASE THAT. THE SECOND PART THERE'S LIKE I SAID THERE'S THREE ITEMS IS A RE FUNDING IN 2013. BOTH OF THESE WERE 2013 ISSUANCES. ONE WAS THE LIMIT HOTEL OCCUPANCY TAX PLEDGE CEO.

THIRD ISSUANCES NEW MONEY ON OUR WATER AND SEWER REVENUE BONDS ON THESE AIR. CLEARLY, YOU CAN SEE IT ALL FOR A WATER AND WASTEWATER IMPROVEMENTS, MOSTLY MAIN REPLACEMENTS.

OUR TAX VALUE TEXT WILL VALUE GREW WITH NEW CONSTRUCTION ABOUT $800 MILLION, SO PHYSICAL, SO EVERYTHING'S FAIRLY STRONG AND WE'RE NOT EVEN CLOSE TO WHAT I WOULD CONSIDER, YOU KNOW. OUR TAX RATE HAS BEEN GOING DOWN COMPARED TO OUR DEBT, SO I DON'T SEE ANY PROBLEMS THERE. I THINK THAT WE WOULD BE. I'M CURIOUS. ARE. ARE WE SEEING PRESSURES OF RISING INTEREST RATES AND SO IS NOT IS A GOOD TOE BLOCK THIS IN RIGHT NOW. I HAVE ARE OUR FINANCIAL ADVISOR HERE. I DON'T SEE THE PRESSURE YET. I'M HEARING THAT THE PRESSURE IS POSSIBLY COMING NOW. SO MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT YOU IT'S PROBABLY STARTING TOE CREEP UP A LITTLE BIT, AND WE DO KNOW INFLATION IS STARTING TO CREEP UP SO OKAY? I NEEDED TO THINK. COMMENT IF I MAY, UM. SAYS THE RESULT OF SEVERAL DIFFERENT. ONE IS WHERE WE'VE HAD CITIZEN AND PUT ON THIS BECAUSE I NOTICE THAT THREE OF THESE.

UP TO SPEAK. HAVE TWO PEOPLE ON I DON'T SHOW THEM YET ON MINE. VERSUS TAMRA JOHNSON. HOW SO? CAMERA. JOHNSON P O BOX 251 MECHANIC TEXAS 75069. I'M SORRY SYMPOSIUM OF 70. I WOULD LIKE TO GIVE A HEARTY THANK YOU TO COUNCILMAN SCOTT ELLIOTT. UM, I HAVE SEEN ON SATURDAYS MANY, MANY TIMES AT 300 THROCKMORTON STREET, HELPING TO DISTRIBUTE BOXES AND BOXES OF FOOD TO OUR COMMUNITY IN CONJUNCTION WITH COMMUNITY LIFELIKE AND ALLIANCE OF ELITE YOUTH LEADERSHIP.ALONGSIDE DERRICK. IT'S TO READ THE ROBINSON SEE YOU. ALL HIS HANDS ON AT IN MCKINNEY, HELPING THOSE WHO ARE LESS FORTUNATE THAN YOURSELVES. SO MANY TIMES. I'VE KNOWN PEOPLE WHO WERE IN NEED AND SEEING THEM REACH OUT TO VARIOUS ORGANIZATIONS TO BE TOLD THAT.
WE REFER THOSE REQUEST TO THIS PLACE OF THAT PLACE. COUNCILMAN ELLIOTT. REMEMBER THE TIME I WAS STANDING THERE AND SAW. COUPLE COME UP TO YOU AND ASK FOR HELP, AND YOU HELP THEM EVEN BEYOND WHAT THEY REQUESTED. I'VE COME TO KNOW YOU AS JUST THAT. SOMEONE WHO HELPS BEYOND WHAT IS REQUESTED. I KNOW THAT YOU HAVE MADE THE DECISION NOT TO RUN AGAIN FOR
[00:40:06]
YOUR SEAT ON THE COUNCIL. BUT I CAN JUST ABOUT IMAGINE THAT YOU WILL STILL BE DOING WHAT YOU DO TO ASSIST THOSE IN NEED IN THIS COMMUNITY, BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT YOU DO. I HOPE THE NEXT MEMBER TO FILL YOUR SEAT THOSE SHE HAS HUGE SHOES TO FILL. I WOULD LIKE TO OFFER CONGRATULATIONS TO THE NEW LEADERSHIP OF THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN DULY ELECTED. RESERVE ON THIS COUNCIL, ALONG WITH THOSE OF YOU WHO WILL CONTINUE IN YOUR POSITIONS. PLEASE DO NOT FORGET THAT THERE'S STILL OUTSTANDING ISSUES THAT NEED TO BE ADDRESS. THERE REALLY NEEDS TO BE A VOTE ON THE STATUE OF THE DOWNTOWN MCKINNEY SQUARE. THE STATUE IS A REMINDER OF THE NEGATIVE TIMES OF THE PAST. IN THIS NATION, THERE HAS BEEN SOMEWHAT OF A SHIFT TOWARD INCLUSION, BUT THAT STATUE IS A RELIC OF THE OLD GUARDS PAST AGAIN. I'M NOT ASKING THAT IT BE DESTROYED. I'M REQUESTING IT WOULD BE MOVED TO A MORE APPROPRIATE PLACE. NO. THE CAN HAS BEEN KICKED DOWN THE ROAD, BUT THERE NEEDS TO BE SOME CLOSURE AND THE DECISION MADE AS TO WHEN AND WHERE WILL BE MOVED. IN ADDITION, THERE NEEDS TO BE A NAME CHANGE TO THROCKMORTON STREET. AND THERE IS SO MUCH NEWNESS ABOUT TO TAKE PLACE. ON THE EAST SIDE OF MCKINNEY. AND TO HAVE THAT OFFENSIVE REMINDER OF OPPRESSION CONTINUE TO RUN THROUGH THE COMMUNITY IS NOT A GOOD THING. PLEASE MAKE A DECISION ON WHEN AND WHAT THAT STREET WILL BE NAMED, RENAMED. FINALLY, I PRAY THAT THERE BE JUSTICE WHAT MARVIN'S GOT THE THIRD. HAVE PROBABLY SEEN IN THE CASE OF GEORGE FLOOR JUSTICE SERVED. NOW WE LOOK FORWARD TO THE SAME HAPPENING HERE IN MCKINNEY, TEXAS. INFORMATION FROM THE MEDICAL EXAMINER AND COLLIN COUNTY HAS COME FORTH AND HE HAS. DETERMINED THAT MR MARBLES GOT THE THIRD DAD BY HOMICIDE. CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR HIS FAMILY, FRIENDS, ASSOCIATES AND FOR THIS COMMUNITY. THAT JUSTICE BE SERVED. I'VE SEEN PEOPLE IN THIS COMMUNITY AND HONEST FRENCH IS ACTING VERY INAPPROPRIATE WAYS TOWARD THOSE WHO ARE ONLY ASKING FOR JUSTICE ON BEHALF OF MR MARVIN SCOTT, THE THIRD HAMMER. THANK YOU. ON HARDEN. YEAH. COUNSEL. MY OFFICES RUN ACROSS WHY SONG? FOR THE WIFE SONG HOSPITAL USED TO BE ONE OF MY THOUGHTS TODAY WAS THAT AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET, I NOTICED THEY WERE TAKING DOWN THE WIFE'S ON HOSPITAL. THAT IN THE ANOTHER ICON, AND MCKINNEY, THE CAPITOL BUILDING IS GOING DOWN WHERE CABAL'S WAS IN THE WISDOM FAMILY THAT I GRADUATED HIGH SCHOOL WITH AND 66. I REMEMBER GETTING TO GO THERE FOR ASKING. AH, LOT OF THINGS ARE BEING TAKEN DOWN. A LOT OF THINGS.YOU'RE GOING TO GO THROUGH A CHANGE. OUR CITY HAS GONE THROUGH A CHANGE. I TOO WANT ECHO COMMENTS. FIRST OF ALL OF THE PASTOR WHO SPOKE EARLIER IN HIS PRAYER. THAT WOULD BE MY PRAYER. MY HOPES ARE THAT THE PEOPLE WHOSE PUT THEIR NAMES OUT. IT'S POSSIBLE CANDIDATES FOR POSITIONS BE COMMENDED FOR THE WORK THAT THEY DID AT THE END OF THE DAY THAT WE GO FORWARD AND THAT THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE BEEN ELECTED BOOK CONTINUE TO SERVICE STEWARDS FOR THE CITY AND BE OPEN AND TRANSPARENT. IN YOUR CONVERSATIONS. I APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY THAT I PERSONALLY HAVE HAD TO TALK EACH WITH ONE OF YOU NOT TRIED IT. SPEAK WITH YOU AS I CAN. I WAS I WAS READING SOMETHING. THAT SAID THAT YOU NEED TO START. IF YOU WANT TO START CHANGING THINGS YOU NEED TO GET INVOLVED IN YOUR COMMUNITY AND YOU GET INVOLVED YOUR COMMUNITY BY GETTING INVOLVED IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD. IT JUST SO HAPPENS THAT THE HOUSE THAT I FOUND IS RIGHT HERE A BLOCK AWAY FROM MY OFFICE, WHICH IS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF THE MCKINNEY CITY COUNCIL. SO I GUESS I'M GONNA BE SPENDING A LOT OF TIME HERE SEEING HOW YOU GUYS WERE DOING IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. I WOULD ALSO SUGGEST THAT I'LL I APPRECIATE THE COMMENTS OF MISS JOHNSON. WE TALK EVERY TIME WE COME UP HERE. WE HAVE GREAT CONVERSATIONS. THIS IS WHAT WE NEED TO DO. WE NEED TO HAVE A CONVERSATION. WE NEED TO RESPECT EACH PEOPLE'S VIEWS. AND AT THE END OF THE DAY WHEN THE PEOPLE SPEAK OUR WHEN VOTES SPEAK, THEN WE NEED TO HONOR THAT AND GO ON WITH OUR LIFE. I ONLY SHARE THESE RANDOM THOUGHTS BECAUSE I'M ABOUT TO TURN 73. I JUST CAN'T HELP IT WHEN I'M GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK FOR A MOMENT BECAUSE THE COURTHOUSE HAS BEEN CLOSED FOR A LONG TIME. REMEMBER WHEN I WAS A LITTLE BOY. I COULD RIDE MY BICYCLE FROM ROLLING BOYD'S HOUSE 15 1 HILL STREET AFTER THE FLYING M RANCH, BUT I COULDN'T RIGHT. I MEAN, I COULD RIDE MY HORSE AFTER THE FLYING IN RANCH, BUT I COULDN'T RIDE MY BICYCLE PAST WADDLE STREET BECAUSE IT WAS TOO CLOSE TO TOWN, AND MY MOTHER'S AFRAID I GET INTO SOME. BUSINESS WITH CARS AND THINGS I ONLY SUGGEST THAT TIME DOES CHANGE THINGS. BUT THE NATURE OF MCKINNEY WILL NEVER CHANGE. THIS IS AN AMAZING PLACE. WE HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO BE. SOUND NONE OF THE SOUNDING BOARD BUT A MODEL. FOR WHAT GROWTH CAN BRING. NOT ONLY NEW THINGS TO GO IN OLD PLACES, BUT NEW THOUGHTS TO GO ALONG WITH OTHER THOUGHTS AND A SHARED BELIEF

[00:55:05]
OR FOUR DAYS OF EARLY VOTING JUST PRIOR TO THAT, SO ACTION SEASON'S NOT OVER FOR GYM BUDDY TO GET OUT AND VOTE. I DO WANT A SECOND WHAT COUNSELOR FRANKLIN SAID THAT IT WAS, IT WAS DARN NEAR 20% OF THE TURNOUT. MUNICIPAL ELECTION 20% OF REGISTERED VOTERS AND.OBVIOUSLY STILL IN ANYTHING CLOSE TO WHAT WE HAVE WHEN WE HAVE NATIONAL ELECTIONS, BUT CERTAINLY THAT IS A TRENDING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THAT. JUMPED 25 30 35% GOING FORWARD. ASKED WELCOME TO THE 2021 CLASS AGAIN. I WANT TO COMMEND YOU ON YOUR NOT ONLY YOUR AFFILIATION OF COUNCILMAN RICH RICH THE WOODS BUT ALSO YOUR EFFICIENCY FOR PICKING AND EXTREMELY SHORT AGENDA TO ATTEND YOUR. YES, UM. RICK HEARD BURGER WAS JUST THE KIND OF SOUL. UM, IN THE CITY OF MCKINNEY. I MEAN, THERE'S ONTO HIS FAMILY. I ARE WE GIVE OUR CONSULT OUR CONDOLENCES BECAUSE WE RECOGNIZE WHAT YOU LOST. YOU LOST. YOU LOST A WONDERFUL HUMAN BEING. AND SO I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT ALONG WITH WHAT WE DID HOW HE WAS RECOGNIZED TODAY. UM MY WIFE IS A FAN OF THE VOICE. I'M NOT, UM, AND YESTERDAY SHE MADE ME WATCH THIS MCKINNEY YOUNG MAN WHO IS, UH. ON THE VOICE. HE HAS AN AMAZING STORY. IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IT, I'M SURE YOU CAN FIND IT SOMEWHERE ON YOUTUBE. BUT HIS NAME IS I THINK'S A ROMEO.
HEY, MADE IT TO THE KNOCKOUT ROUNDS YESTERDAY AND GOT KNOCKED OUT. JUST BECAUSE HIS COACH PICKED THE WRONG PERSON. THIS IS MY, YOU KNOW MY OPINION AND BECAUSE HE WAS HIS PHENOMENAL HE'S REALLY, REALLY GOOD. AND KELLY CLARKSON PICKED HIM UP IN THE STEEL OR WHATEVER THEY DO. I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY HOW IT SO HE'S STILL ON. AND SO YOU CAN WATCH HIM. I MEAN, I'LL BE STUNNED IF HE DOESN'T MAKE IT AND YOU KNOW. SEVERAL MORE ROUNDS AND BUT HE WAS. SAW TUNE IN TO THE WASTE JUST TO WATCH OUR SOMEBODY WHO'S REPRESENTING THE KENNY. NOTHING IS AS PEOPLE TALK ABOUT OUR REAL ESTATE TAXES. THEY TALK ABOUT GOING UP OR A DIFFERENT THINGS. MAY 17TH IS THE DEADLINE TO PROTEST YOUR TAXES. IF YOU GOT SOMETHING IN THE MAIL, AND YOU SEE LIKE I DID, AND. IT'S 5% FOR ME EVERY YEAR. I MEAN, IT JUST IS WHAT I. EXPECT AND SO WE'RE WE'RE GONNA GO TALK TO HIM AND SEE IF WE CAN'T. SEE HOW THEY'RE JUSTIFYING WHAT? THEY'RE VALUING MY PROPERTY FOR SO I WOULD HAVE, I WOULD ASK. TELL ANYBODY IF YOU HAVE. APPRAISAL ISSUE. CONTACT THE COUNTY COLLIN COUNTY APPRAISAL DISTRICT. WE TALKED ABOUT THE ELECTION AND. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT THAT I THINK THAT ONE OF THE REASONS THAT I THINK WE HAD SUCH A LARGE TURNOUT. IS BECAUSE THOSE WHO WERE RUNNING AND EVENTUALLY WON MOTIVATED THE PEOPLE. I THINK THAT I MEAN, THERE'S NOT ANYBODY THAT EVER IN A CITY ELECTION ANYWHERE CLOSE TO THE VOTES THAT GEORGE FULLER GOD. I THINK THAT THAT WAS REPRESENTATION AND OF THE KIND OF MAN THAT HE IS, AND THE KIND OF MAYOR THAT HE'S BEEN, AND S O. I ACKNOWLEDGE HIM IS FOR DOING THAT. AND ALSO CHARLIE, I DON'T THINK ANYBODY AT LARGE GOT AS MANY VOTES AS CHARLIE. ON THE CITY ELECTION, SO BOTH OF THEM OF OUTSTANDING AND WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO HAVING UH, YOU'RE A FELTUS ON THE ON THE COUNCIL. I THINK SHE SHOULD BE A GREAT ADDITION. HOW SHE HAS A DOCTOR. HOW SHE'S GONNA. HANDLE ALL THAT WITH KIDS AND STUFF LIKE THAT. GOD BLESS THAT WOMAN FOR STEPPING UP AND JUGGLING HER LIFE. AND THE THINGS THAT SHE'LL HAVE TO DO THE B A COUNCILMAN, BUT I WILL TELL YOU SHE WILL BE PREPARED AND SHE WILL BE READY AND. BOND WE LOOK FORWARD TO SERVING WITH HER. THANK YOU FOR PASSING THE SCHOOL BONDS AND ESPECIALLY. TURNING AWAY THE STATE OF TEXAS AND CONFISCATING ALMOST $3 BILLION OF OUR REAL ESTATE. THANK YOU MCKINNEY FROM MAKING THOSE DECISIONS, THE RIGHT DECISIONS FOR HELPING FUND TECHNOLOGY FOR ALL THE CHILDREN IN OUR SCHOOLS. SO TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY'RE PREPARED WHEN THEY LEAVE THE HIGH SCHOOLS OF MCKINNEY, TEXAS, THAT THEY'RE PREPARED TO, UH, FURTHER WITH THE TECHNOLOGY TOE. YEAH. MAKE A LIVING BECAUSE YOU YOU NEED THAT PREPARATION, SO WE APPRECIATE THAT. WE APPRECIATE THE FACT THAT WE'RE HAVE UPDATED SCHOOLS NOW AND THINGS LIKE THAT. THAT'S ALL I HAVE. MAYOR. ENTER. THANK YOU, MR MAYOR. MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL. A COUPLE OF ITEMS. FIRST OF ALL, FIRST OF ALL, I WANTED TO
[01:00:08]
ALSO COMMENT ON RICK HERSHBERGER. UM. I'VE BEEN HERE ALMOST FIVE YEARS AND I'VE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO GET TO KNOW RICK. AND HE WOULD COME BY MY OFFICE PERIODICALLY AND SOMETIMES EVEN ON WEEKENDS AND BE IN THE OFFICE DOING SOME WORK, AND RICK WOULD BE IN HIS OFFICE AND HE'D SEE MY CARD COME OVER AND CHAT. SOMETIMES THAT SWING BY HIS OFFICE. A COUPLE YEARS AGO, I READ A BOOK. I SAW UNAUTHORIZED SPEAK AT A CONFERENCE IN THE AUTHOR'S NAME IS ANDY ANDREWS IF ANYBODY KNOWS HIM, BUT HE WROTE A BOOK CALLED THE NOTICE, SIR. AND I SHARED. WITH STAFF. I WROTE A PIECE IN OUR NEWSLETTER INTERNAL NEWSLETTER AND SHARED WITH STAFF ABOUT THE BOOK AND REALLY SOME INTERESTING PERSPECTIVE, BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT THE BOOK WAS ABOUT IS ABOUT PERSPECTIVE ON LIFE AND. RICK RED BOOK, AND HE CAME AND TOLD ME ABOUT IT, AND HE, HE SAID IT CHANGED HIS LIFE. AND HE READ. I THINK EVERY SINGLE BOOK THAT ANDY ANDREWS WROTE. DON'T EVEN READ ALL ANDY ANDREWS BOOKS, BUT HE READ EVERY BOOK INSTEAD OF CHANGE HIS LIFE AND SO. I FEEL BLESSED THAT RICK HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO FEEL IT MADE HIM FEEL BETTER. AND I DIDN'T KNOW HE HAD, LIKE LIKE EVERYBODY. YOU GO THROUGH, SOMETIMES IN LIFE THAT ARE TOUGH AND. AND RICK. I THINK THE BOOK GAVE HIM SOME COMFORT AND I'M BLESSED. AND FEEL SO HAPPY THAT HE HAD THAT HEY, LEFT TOO SOON, TOO YOUNG, BUT IT IS WHAT IT IS AND LIFE. I GUESS WE'RE ALL GONNA GO IN SOME WAY THAT WE DON'T PLAN SO.ALL RIGHT. RICK WILL BE DEARLY MISSED BY ALL OF US. UM. YOU MENTIONED THAT MICE? MY GRIMES KID ON THE TEAM OCCASIONALLY. RELATED TO ME, BUT RIGHT NOW MY WIFE WAS TEXTED ME THAT HE HAS A BUNCH OF HIS TEAMMATES GETTING MULLET HAIRCUTS IN OUR GARAGE, AND THEN THEY WERE GONNA BLEACH THEIR HAIR, SO I DON'T KNOW IF I HERE'S MY KID. I DON'T KNOW IF I'M GONNA CLAIM HIM TODAY. IT'S AH ANYWAY, WHATEVER. IT'S WHAT HIGH SCHOOL KIDS DO, I SUPPOSE. ANYWAY LASTLY, I WOULD JUST REMIND FOLKS THE CITY'S GONNA HOLD IN EAST MCKINNEY STREETS AND TRAFFIC STUDY MEETING ON THURSDAY. THIS THURSDAY, MAY SIX FROM 5 32 7 PM AT OLD SETTLERS RECREATION CENTER. RESIDENTS CAN LEARN ABOUT THE BACKGROUND AND GOALS OF THE STUDY AND VIEW VARIOUS ROADWAY IMPROVEMENT CONCEPTS. THERE WERE NO DECISIONS MADE IN THE YEARS OR CONCEPTUAL IDEAS, BUT WE WANTED TO ENGAGE THE COMMUNITY, PARTICULARLY FOLKS IN THAT NEIGHBORHOOD. WE WILL HAVE SPANISH TRANSLATORS AVAILABLE. SO AGAIN THAT IS THIS THURSDAY, MAY SIX FROM 5 30 TO 7 P.M. THAT'S ALL I HAVE, SIR. RIGHT? I TALKED ABOUT RICK HERSHBERGER AT THE BEGINNING OF THE MEETING, AND I ECHO WHAT EVERYONE HERE, SAID RICK WAS JUST A. VERY SWEET MAN. AND HE WAS ONE OF THOSE GUYS THAT NEVER WAS NEVER SAID NO.
WITHOUT SAYING. NO, I CAN'T DO THAT. BUT. I THINK WHAT WE CAN DO OR HOW WE CAN PROCEED OR WHAT MIGHT BE AN OPTION. WAS THAT GUY THAT ALWAYS ALWAYS HELPED YOU FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET SOMETHING DONE. AND HE WAS LOVED FOR THAT IN MY INDUSTRY. IT'S JUST VERY, VERY WELL RESPECTED. UM TOMORROW NIGHT. WILL BE THROWING OUT THE FIRST PITCH FOR THE ANGELS LEAD ALSO KNOWN AS THE MCKINNEY HALOS, SO IF YOU WANT TO SEE A FANTASTIC T BALL GAME. YOU SHOW UP AT THE YOU WON'T SEE A FANTASTIC FIRST PITCH, BUT YOU'LL SEE A FANTASTIC T BALL GAME. ONCE THE GAME STARTS. IT'S BY THE KIWANIS CLUB. THEY SPONSOR THIS LEAGUE. AND IT'S AT TOWN LAKE.
THAT WILL BE EXTREMELY EXCITING. IT'S A PLEASE COME OUT THERE. 6 30 TOMORROW NIGHT.
YOU DO THE FAKE PITCH? I'M GONNA I'M DOING A FASTBALL, ACTUALLY DOING A BALL OR A FAKE? I DON'T KNOW. WHEN YOUR KID OKAY? NO. BASEBALL WAS NEVER MY SPORT. THE ELECTION.
CONGRATULATIONS DR DRE FELT THIS. I'M SO EXCITED THAT SHE WILL BE SERVING UP HERE. GREAT GREAT ADDITION TO THE COUNCIL. THERE'S A RUNOFF AS WAS STATED, AND I AM, OF COURSE, ELATED THAT MY CO COUNCILMAN CHARLIE PHILLIPS, WAS RE ELECTED. AND WE DID. WE HAD INCREDIBLE TURNOUT. WE HAD MORE THAN TWICE THE HIGHEST MUNICIPAL TURNOUT WE'VE EVER HAD. AND PREVIOUSLY WE MORE THAN DOUBLE THAT THIS ELECTION. AND THAT WAS THAT WAS FANTASTIC. ONE THING I HOPE THAT CHANGES MOVING FORWARD IS IN ADDITION TO OR. ABILITY WOULD BE THAT THIS IS A NON PARTISAN POSITION APPEAR. IT'S NONPARTISAN FOR A REASON, AND THERE WAS A DESPERATE ATTEMPT TO MAKE THIS A PARTISAN ELECTION. AND OUR COMMUNITY IS MADE UP OF ALL POLITICAL PERSUASIONS. AND YOU KNOW WHEN WE SERVE WHEN I GO WHEN I LEAVE HERE TONIGHT IF I HADN'T STOPPED THE GROCERY STORE, I'M GONNA WRITE C JOHN. I MIGHT SEE. NO, OUR OUR NEIGHBORS. WE SERVED WITH OUR NEIGHBORS WITH OUR FAMILY WITH FRIENDS AND OUR COMMUNITY IS NOT JUST ONE
[01:05:01]
POLITICAL PARTY. AND THE THOUGHT THAT IT WOULD BE TURNED TO THAT. AND PEOPLE WOULD BE DEMONIZED FOR HAVING SUPPORT FROM ANOTHER PARTY WAS JUST. IT WAS UNFATHOMABLE TO ME THAT THAT COULD EXIST WHEN YOU'RE TRYING TO WHEN YOU'RE RUNNING FOR POSITION TO SERVE THE COMMUNITY. IT'S NOT THE COMMUNITY ONE COLOR, RED OR BLUE. IT'S THE COMMUNITY. AND I HOPE MOVING FORWARD WHEN WE HAVE ELECTIONS ARE NEXT ELECTIONS. I HOPE IN THIS RUNOFF. THIS RUNOFF IS ABOUT. POLICY AND ABOUT VISION AND NOT ABOUT POLITICAL PARTY. SHOULD HAVE MORE FAITH THAT IT WOULDN'T BE, BUT IT SHOULD BE. THAT'S WHO WE SERVICE. THE COMMUNITY HAS NOTHING TO IT. POLITICAL. SO I HOPE THAT CHANGES FANTASTIC TURNOUT ECHO WITH WHAT? SCOTT SAID. I HOPE THAT IT GROWS FROM HERE. BUT WHAT A FANTASTIC TURNOUT.THAT'S IT. SO I HOPE I SEE SOMEBODY AT 6 30 TOMORROW NIGHT WATCHING THE LITTLE HALOS. HEY, T BALL. MOTION TO ADJOURN. MOVE THAT WERE JOHN. OKAY? WHOA! UH HUH.
