[00:00:03]

ORDER WE ARE IN CITY COUNCIL CHAMBERS AT 2 22 NORTH TENNESSEE STREET. CITY OF MCKINNEY, AND IT IS THREE O'CLOCK IN THE AFTERNOON ON TUESDAY, JANUARY 15TH. OUR

[PUBLIC COMMENTS ON AGENDA ITEMS]

IT'S A STREET. RIGHT? I FEEL LIKE. SHOULD BE A DECISION THAT'S MADE BY THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE ON THE STREET. CAN'T GO TO STONEBRIDGE. UNTIL THEIR H L. A. BUT I FEEL LIKE THIS STREET NEEDS TO CHANGE OR DOESN'T NEED TO CHANGE BECAUSE IT'S NOT MY NEIGHBORHOOD. THEY PAY THEIR H AWAY. THEY PAY THEIR TAXES IN THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD THEY DESERVE. THE RIGHT TO SPEAK.

WHAT HAPPENS IN THEIR COMMUNITY. WE SHOULD HAVE THE SAME RESPECT. SO I'M ASKING THAT YOU GUYS DON'T KICK THE CAN OR. CREATED AN ADVISORY BOARD OR. HAVE A SURVEY BE DONE AND PAYING ALL THIS MONEY THAT WE DON'T NEED TO SPEND. IT'S LIKE WHAT 15 PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY LIVE ON STOCK MARKET ORDERS TO GO KNOCK ON OUR DOORS AND ASK HIM BUT I WANT STREET TO BE CHANGES. YES OR NO. MAJORITY OF NOT GOING TO SAY YES. THEY'VE ALREADY SAID YES, RIGHT. SO THAT'S ALL I ASK FROM THE COUNCIL. IF YOU GUYS WOULD LEAVE IT TO THE COMMUNITY OF CHANGES OR NOT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. TAMARA JOHNSON. ARE YOU OUT TODAY? THIS IS FROM THE NATIONAL INTERESTS. EXCERPTS OF IT. AMERICA MUST LET GO OF LINGERING CONFEDERATE NOSTALGIA. BY BRADFORD, VIVIAN THOMAS PAINE PUBLISHED COMMON SENSE IN JANUARY. 17 76 AS AMERICAN COLUMNIST DEBATED WHETHER TO DECLARE INDEPENDENCE FROM GREAT BRITAIN, HE PROCLAIMED A NEW ERA POLITICS. AND A NEW METHOD OF THINKING HAD BEGUN. COMMON SENSE, URGED COLUMNIST TO FORGET MINE AQEEL HISTORY AND CULTURE SO THAT THEY CAN EMBRACE A RADICALLY NEW HISTORICAL NARRATIVE. ADOPTION OF AMERICAN EXCEPTIONALISM. THAT PAIN HELPED TO CREATE THE BELIEF THAT THE U. S IS NOT ONLY DIFFERENT BUT EXCEPTIONAL DEPENDENCE UPON AN IDEAL OF RENEWAL SUGGEST THAT AMERICANS ARE JOINED TOGETHER IN THE CONSTANT CREATION OF A NEW HISTORY AND A NEW POLITICS PAINTS RHETORIC. ARGUES THAT FORGETTING NO CUSTOMS AND CATHOLICS DOES NOT NECESSARILY MEAN DESTROYING THE PAST.

FORGETTING IS A VOLUNTARY DECISION TO NO LONGER GRASP SOMETHING, NOT DESTROY IT.

PEOPLE TODAY DON'T LITERALLY REMEMBER THE CIVIL WAR. NEITHER CAN THEY LITERALLY FORGET IT.

THE TERMS, REMEMBER AND FORGET OUR METAPHORICAL DESCRIPTIONS OF DIFFERENT ATTITUDES TOWARDS HISTORY. SOMETIMES COMMUNITIES DECIDE THAT PREVIOUSLY BELOVED NARRATIVES OF THE PAST HAVE BECOME DIVISIVE AND DESERVE TO BE SET ASIDE. ASKING CONFEDERATE ADVOCATES TO FORGET IN THE NAME OF A GREATER GOOD DOES NOT MEAN ASKING THEM TO ERASE THE PAST. IT MEANS INVITING THEM TO WORK TO THE WORK OF TRUTH AND RECONCILIATION AND FOR GOING THE LOST CARS. HISTORICAL MYTHOLOGY THAT INSISTS THE CONFEDERATE CAUSE WAS NOBLE AND HEROIC. CONFEDERATE MEMORIALS SYMBOLIZE A FORM OF WHITE SUPREMACY THAT SOUGHT TO VIOLENTLY ERASED THE HERITAGE OF KIDNAPPED AND ENSLAVED AFRICANS AND THEIR DESCENDANTS.

WE'RE GETTING THAT DISTORTED VISION OF HISTORY WOULD NOT ERASE AN AUTHENTIC PASS. IT MIGHT CREATE OPPORTUNITIES FOR UNDERSTANDING, POST CIVIL WAR HISTORY AND MORE HONEST THAN EQUITABLE WAYS. CONFEDERATE NOSTALGIA WORKS AGAINST THE AMERICAN ETHIC OF RENEWAL AND DESPERATELY NEEDED WORK OF TRUTH AND RECONCILIATION. DISTORTED MEMORIES OF CONFEDERATE HISTORY DEPICTIONS HAVE BEEN A LEVEL OF SLAVE MATTERS AND LOWER SLAVES HINDER SERIOUS EFFORT TO CONFRONT THE BRUTAL LEGACIES OF WHITE SUPREMACY AS A RESULT OF THE PEACE EFFORTS TO MEMORIALIZE THE FULL SCOPE OF AFRICAN AMERICAN RESILIENCE IN THE FACE THAT PERSISTS OF BRUTALITIES. LOCAL GOVERNMENTS HAVE REMOVED STATUES OF CONFEDERATE GENERALS IN THE DARK OF NIGHT. WELL WE ALSO LABOR TOGETHER IN THE LIGHT OF DAY TO DISCOVER MORE HONEST AND EQUITABLE WAYS OF UNDERSTANDING OUR HISTORY AND NEW. THANK YOU FOR THE NAME

[00:05:01]

FOR THAT FINANCIAL BURDEN. I'M SORRY, BUT IF THE CITY WANTS TO COME IN AND DO THAT IN THE CITY SHOULD BE COMPENSATING THOSE PEOPLE FOR THAT BURDEN ON THAT THE CITY'S FOOTING ONLINE. YEP.

JIM SCHWARTZBERG. I'M SURE I'LL GET THIS UP HERE. MM. DON'T KNOW WHAT GOOD IT WILL BE TO TALK. UHH! BUT ON THE DOCUMENT IS A MAP OF LOT FOUR AND ADJACENT. A LOT FOR NORTH OF LOT FOR IS HIGHLIGHTED IN YELLOW AND OUTSIDE DIMENSIONS OF ALL OF THE PROPERTIES THAT HAVE OFFICE SPACE FRONTING THE SPACE. SO WITH THE CONSIDERATION OF MAKING LOT FOR THREE HOUR PARKING, YOU'RE DISPLACING 75,000 SQUARE FEET OF OFFICE. PEOPLE. BY THE RATIO OF 1 TO 400 THAT IS IN THE CITY CODE. THAT IS APPROXIMATELY A 188. SPACE PEOPLE HAVE TO FIND A NEW WAY TO PARK. I CAN TELL YOU THAT OUT OF THE SPACES THAT THEY HAVE A CHOICE OF RIGHT NOW, WHICH IS A LOT FOR LOT TWO IN LOT THREE. THERE'S 270 SPACES IN THOSE LOTS. GOING TO LA 70 FT LOT TO IN LIKE THREE ALONE, MEANING THEY CAN'T PARK IN FOUR. THEY GOT TO GO TO TWO.

OR THEY GOT TO GO UP TO THREE. THAT MEANS THAT THERE'S 158 SPACES, REPLACING 270. CITY STUDY ALREADY SHOWS THAT IN THE MIDDLE OF 2019 THAT LOT TWO AND 3 100% FULL AT PEAK TIMES, I CAN TELL YOU. AS A BUSINESS OWNER LOCATED WHERE MOST OF MY EMPLOYEES PARKING EITHER TWO OR THREE THAT IF YOU'RE NOT THERE AT WORK BY NINE O'CLOCK, YOU'RE NOT GETTING A PARKING SPACE. SO ALL THIS. EFFORT TO MOVE AND WHAT'S ON THE SECOND PAGE OF THIS IS YOU'RE GOING TO SHIFT BEHAVIOR WITH THE IDEA OF TRYING TO MAKE PEOPLE GO TO GARAGE. THAT'S NOT WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. THOSE PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE IF YOU WILL. FIRST COME FIRST SERVED FOR THOSE SPACES IN LOT TWO IN A LOT THREE, WHICH MEANS THAT IF YOU DON'T GET TO WORK BY 7 30 OR SO YOU'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE IT. SOME MY SUGGESTIONS TO THE COUNCIL SHOULD YOU DECIDE TO DO THIS, AND I SUGGESTIONS TO STAFF IS. AND THE FIRST ONE HERE IS A BIT OF A JOKE, BUT IT'S ALSO HAS A LITTLE BIT OF MEAT TO IT IS THAT I THINK THAT THE CITY STAFF SHOULD BE ON IT UNABLE TO PARK IN THE DEVELOPMENT SERVICES LOT OR THE SOUTH PART OF LOT ONE, SO THEY

[00:10:03]

FOR EXAMPLE, ONE OF MY EMPLOYEES PARTS OVER CHESTNUT AND CHESTNUT AT 7 15. SHE HAS TO KICK THE HOMELESS PEOPLE OUT OF HER WAY TO GET. TO, UM, TO COME OVER TO THE OFFICE. IN THE AFTERNOON WHEN SHE GOES HOME AT ABOUT 5, 30 OR SIX. THERE IS THE SKATEBOARDERS THAT ARE OVER THERE IN PLAYING INSIDE THAT GARAGE. WE NEED PEOPLE TO LOOK OUT FOR THAT. IT'S BEEN MENTIONED IN A SERIES OF EMAILS OVER THE LAST FEW DAYS ABOUT SECURITY FOR ALL OF THE PEOPLE THAT ARE THE RESTAURANTS RUNNING IN THAT SAME AREA THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. TIME'S UP.

THANK YOU, JIM. THANK. RIGHT? I DO NOT SHOW ANY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE SIGNED UP TO SPEAK, SO

[DISCUSS REGULAR MEETING AGENDA ITEMS for the City Council Regular Meeting to be held Tuesday, June 15, 2021 at 6:00p.m. ]

CORRECT AND RIGHT, JUST AN EXPANSION OF THE PROGRAM, AND THIS WOULD BE FOR SINGLE SINGLE FAMILY RENTAL, SINGLE FAMILY RENTALS. HOW MANY PROPERTIES DO WE ASSIST TO THE OWNER OCCUPIED PORTION OF THAT? THE OWNER OCCUPIED. IT VARIES. IT'S AN AVERAGE TYPICALLY BETWEEN 10 TO 12. UM AND THEN THE THIRD. ONE IS KIND OF. NEIGHBORHOOD ORIENTED, UM. AND I ASSUME THAT THAT'S KIND OF COUPLED WITH SOME OF THE WORK THE NEIGHBORHOOD PRESERVATION WORK THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. UM. THE. I'VE HAD SOME CONVERSATIONS WITH PEOPLE WHO MISSED THE OLD PRIDE PROGRAM THAT WE HAD. CAN YOU TALK ABOUT? DOES THAT FIT INTO SOMETHING LIKE THIS? OR IS THAT IS THIS KIND OF. REPLACING YOU KNOW WHAT THAT USED TO BE OR TRYING TO HELP WITH WHAT THAT USED TO BE, OR IS IT JUST AESTHETIC? IF I CAN ANSWER A QUESTION IF I'M UNDERSTANDING, I SAY YOUR QUESTION IS THAT, UM, WHEN WE'VE USED CDBG FUNDS IN THE PAST, I WILL SAY LARGELY, WE WOULD ALWAYS COME TO THE COMMUNITY. AND WE WOULD BE ABLE TO DEVELOP DIFFERENT PROJECTS IN THE PAST. UH IN THE PRIDE AREAS. WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO ASSIST WITH. UM UM. OLD SETTLERS IN TERMS OF SOME IMPROVEMENTS THERE, ALSO WIDELY

[00:15:01]

SOME OF THOSE CONCERNS AND THAT WITH HARD FUNDING IF PROPOSED, AND WE HAD THE AVAILABILITY, THIS WOULD BE ABLE TO HAVE SOME OF THE REQUEST THAT THEY HAVE LARGELY WITH THE SPINACH AND ALSO TO BE ABLE TO DESIGNATE BETWEEN THE PRIDE COMMUNITIES OR THE. WHATEVER THE DECISIONS ARE GOING TO BE FOR THE DESCRIPTIONS, AS WELL AS BE ABLE TO INCLUDE IMPROVE THE LIGHTING AND SAFETY IN THOSE AREAS. AND SO THAT'S STILL. UM YOU KNOW IS SOME OF THE CONCERNS THAT RESIDENTS HAD AND WE'RE STILL THINKING ABOUT THAT. INCORPORATING THAT. YOU IS. IS THERE, ENOUGH DEMAND TO OUTPACE THIS SUPPLY OF. FUNDS IN THE, UH SINGLE FAMILY. UH REPAIR PROGRAM, UM OR IN THE INFILL PROGRAM. I COULD. WE'RE NOT. WE'RE NOT GOING TO MEET DEMAND. THAT'S OUT THERE, ARE WE? WE'RE NOT GOING TO MEET DEMAND. I WOULD SAY THAT WITH WITH OUR FUNDING, NOT ONLY FOR THIS PROGRAM AND HOUSING, WHETHER EVEN WITH COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT. THERE IS ALWAYS A GREATER NEED VERSUS FUNDING, BUT IT DOES ALLOW US TO BE ABLE TO ADDRESS SOME OF THOSE CONCERNS WITH THE FUNDING ON THAT. WE HAVE TO BE ABLE TO SHOW THAT WE CAN. LEVERAGE YOU KNOW THIS RE FORCES AND THEN OVER TIME, STILL BE ABLE TO BUILD. YOU KNOW IN INTO THAT WHEN WE CONCERN, UM WITH THIS INTRODUCTION. THE COMMUNITY GRANTS ADVISORY COMMISSION STILL, UM WILL BE MEETING WITH WITH RECOMMENDATIONS AND THE PUBLIC WILL STILL HAVE AN ADDITIONAL 30 DAYS TO BE ABLE TO HAVE INPUT BEFORE WE COME BEFORE YOU WITH COUNCIL AND WITH OUR PROGRAMS. IT IS ONGOING WHERE EVEN THOUGH WE APPROVED THE CONSOLIDATED PLAN. RATHER NOT. WE YOU OF COUNCIL, UH, APPROVED IT. IT ALSO AGAIN STILL SPEAKS TO THE NEED THAT WE ARE LISTENING TO THE PUBLIC ON THAT SO AND AS WE AND I WOULD ALSO SAY THAT THIS IS JUST ONE OF THE CATALYST OF FUNDS THAT WE HAVE. THE STAFF IS ALWAYS CONTINUING TO TRY TO FIND OTHER FUNDS TO BE ABLE TO BENEFIT SO THAT IT DOESN'T IMPACT THE GENERAL FUND BUT ALSO THAT WE'RE LISTENING AND BEING ABLE TO IMPROVE. UM. MR GRIMES, UM, ON THE. CITY COUNCIL GOALS AND STRATEGIES. UNDER. MM HMM. YES, IT'S. I'M LOOKING AT THE 123 4/5 PAGE UNDER HOUSING, COMMUNITY AND DEVELOPMENT AND THE COMMUNITY MCKINNEY COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION. WE. THAT IS OUR LAST BULLET THERE INCLUDE AFFORDABLE HOUSING IN THE CITIES. COMPREHENSIVE HOUSING STRATEGY BY SEPTEMBER, 2022.

HOW DOES THAT PLAY INTO THIS? IF WE ARE WE ARE. PUTTING FORTH PROGRAMS THAT AREN'T MEETING DEMAND. WE'VE WE'VE GOT A YES. GOAL HERE. TWO. MM. IMPROVE THE WAY WE MEET THAT DEMAND. UM SEEMS LIKE THOSE ARE. KIND OF VERY WELL TO EACH OTHER. OBJECTIVE IS, OF COURSE IN THE STRATEGIC PLAN IS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE A COGENT HOUSING STRATEGY WOVEN INTO OUR OUR HOUSING PLAN BY 2022. IT MAY BE SOONER WE MAY HAVE SOME COMPONENTS OF IT PRIOR TO THEM.

BUT THE OBJECTIVE IN OUR IN OUR STRATEGIC PLAN IS TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S. THAT WE HAVE ADOPTED STRATEGY BY THAT TIME FRAME. THAT'S HOW I RECONCILE THEM. THIS IS ONE EXAMPLE THROUGH CDBG. THAT'S ONLY ONE WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A NUMBER OF OTHER COMPONENTS THAT WE'RE GONNA BE BRINGING FORWARD TO THE COUNCIL FOR CONSIDERATION IN THE COMING MONTHS. BUT THE INTENT IS TO HAVE A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH. STRATEGY IN PLACE BY THAT TIME FRAME. MANY OF THE COMPONENTS WILL BE IN PLACE. HOPEFULLY BEFORE THEN. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU LATER. THANK YOU. THE OTHER QUESTIONS. THAT WE WILL MOVE TO OUR WORK SESSION ITEMS. FIRST ITEM. DOWNTOWN, PARKING AND WAY

[Downtown Parking and Wayfinding Update]

[00:20:05]

TODAY. YOU'LL SEE THERE'S NOT A LOT OF ORANGE, WHICH DENOTES, UM, THE PUBLIC LOTS IN THE AREA. THAT IS THE ONLY LOT, UM IN THE SOUTHWEST AREA OF THE DOWNTOWN. YOU'LL ALSO SEE ON THIS MAP. THE GREEN INDICATES PRIVATE PARKING LOTS AND IN TOTAL WE'VE GOT ABOUT, UM. 1500 PUBLIC PARKING SPACES IN DOWNTOWN. OFF STREET. SO GOING BACK TO THE CITY LOT FOR, UM AGAIN, IT MAKES UP 100% OF THE OFF STREET PARKING IN THAT AREA. UM IT DOES IT HIT 100% OR AT LEAST ABOVE 90. UM. OVER HALF THE TIMES THAT WE COUNTED IT IN 2019 SO VERY OFTEN NOT JUST AT THE ONE PEAK. UM IT GETS FULL AND STAYS FULL. IN FALL OF 2020 AS A PART OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE DOWNTOWN PARKING ACTION PLAN. WE UM, CONDUCTED A SURVEY THAT. HAD DIFFERENT TRACKS FOR VISITORS, EMPLOYEES AND EMPLOYERS AND 87% OF VISITORS SAID THAT THE THREE HOUR TIME LIMIT WAS SUFFICIENT FOR MAKING THEIR TRIP DOWNTOWN. AND SO BASED ON ALL THESE FACTORS, THE LOCATION THE CONSTRAINED NATURE OF THE AREA AND THAT VISITORS SAY BOTH THAT THEY NEED MORE CONVENIENT CLOSE IN PARKING. AND THAT THREE HOURS TENDS TO WORK FOR THEM.

THESE ARE THE REASONS THAT WE'RE PROPOSING TO CONVERT LOT FOR TWO, A THREE HOUR PARKING LOT. ALL RIGHT. WITH THAT I WILL INTRODUCE PAM ALAMO TOOL TO TALK ABOUT THE WAY FINDING ASPECT OF WHAT WE'RE DOING TODAY. THANK YOU, ALEC. HELLO MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS. MY NAME IS PAMELA MUTO. I AM A TRAFFIC ENGINEER WITH THE CITY OF MCKINNEY. I AM ALSO THE PROJECT MANAGER. FOR THE CITYWIDE WAY FINDING MASTER PLAN FOR THE NEW COUNCIL MEMBERS. I DID WANT TO QUICKLY MENTIONED THAT THE CITYWIDE WAY FINDING MASTER PLAN. THE MAIN PURPOSE OF IT IS TO DEVELOP A NEW DESIGN BRAND FOR OUR EXISTING WAY FINDING SIGNAGE SYSTEM. THE DESIGN ITSELF. IT DOES TAKE A YEAR LONG PROCESS. WE KICKED OFF THE PROJECT IN FEBRUARY, AND BASED ON THE FEEDBACK THAT WE RECEIVED FROM SOME OF THE DOWNTOWN STAKEHOLDERS BACK IN OUR MARCH. PUBLIC MEETING. THEY MENTIONED THAT IT'S STILL HAS BEEN, AND IT CONTINUES TO BE VERY DIFFICULT FOR VISITORS TO FIND PARKING. SO WE DID WANT TO ACCELERATE A SMALL PORTION OF THE SCOPE AND START FOCUSING ON THE PARKING SIGNAGE IN OUR DOWNTOWN AND SEE WHAT IMPROVEMENTS WE CAN MAKE THIS YEAR VERSUS WAITING LONGER. WE DID WANT TO MAKE SURE TO WORK IN TANDEM WITH THE IMPROVEMENTS THAT ARE, UM, THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT IS PROPOSING TODAY AS PART OF THE PARKING ACTION PLAN. SO WHAT IMPROVEMENTS WILL

[00:25:05]

ANOTHER UPDATE THAT WE ARE MAKING SURE TO WORK ON IS SO THIS PICTURE SHOWS AN IDENTIFICATION WAY FINDING SIGN AND THIS IS WHAT IDENTIFIES. OF THE PARK, PARKING LOTS AND GARAGES THAT ARE AVAILABLE FOR PUBLIC USE. SO WE ARE NOT NECESSARILY GOING TO REMOVE THE ENTIRE STRUCTURE AND THE BROWN PORTION OF THE SIGN BECAUSE THEY WILL BE REPLACED IN THE FUTURE. HOWEVER WE ARE GOING TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT. WHITE CIRCLE AND THE GREEN PEA ON THE TOP WILL MATCH THE NEW DESIGN. WE ARE IMPLEMENTING. THAT'S WHERE IT'S A CONSISTENT LOOK AND FEEL. I DID WANT TO TOUCH ON THE CONCEPT THAT WE ARE GOING TO BE USING AND MOVING FORWARD. SO THE BLUE IS. IT IS COMMONLY USED NATIONWIDE AND THE DESIGNER FOR THE WAY FINDING PROJECT IS RECOMMENDING. WE MOVE THAT DIRECTION. THE LIGHTER BLUE AND THE WHITE P WILL BE INCORPORATED INTO OUR FINAL DESIGN. UM, FOR THE WAY FINDING SYSTEM SO IT WILL BE GREAT TO START. TRAINING OUR VISITORS AND OUR RETURNING VISITORS TO LOOK FOR THAT BLUE. AND THE MOST IMPACTFUL CHANGE AND THE MAIN REASON WHY WE ARE CHANGING THIS GREENPEACE NOW IS WE ARE GOING TO MOVE FORWARD WITH ONLY HAVING AN ARROW PER SIGN VERSUS THE MULTI DIRECTION. WE HEARD FROM THE DOWNTOWN STAKEHOLDERS THAT. HOWEVER THAT IS TRUE. WE DO HAVE PARKING AND VARIOUS DIRECTION. IT IS KIND OF DIFFICULT FOR OUR DRIVERS TO MAKE A QUICK DECISION OVER TO PARK. SO WE ARE DEVELOPING. SPECIFIC ROUTES THAT ARE RECOMMENDED BY CITY STAFF FOR THAT FIRST TIME VISITOR. WE UNDERSTAND THAT IF YOU COME TO THE CITY, AND YOU TYPICALLY HAVE US GO TO THE SAME LOT TO PARK WE UNDERSTAND WE WILL LIKELY NOT CHANGE THAT BEHAVIOR FOR BUT FOR THIS FIRST TIME VISITOR. WE ARE RECOMMENDING THEM TO BEGIN AND PARK ON THE NORTH SIDE OF TOWN. THIS OFFERS THE MOST PARKING SPACES IN OUR DOWNTOWN AREA, AND BASED ON THE LAST OCCUPANCY STUDY, IT DOES SHOW THAT IT HAS THE LOWEST OCCUPANCY RATES. SO IT WILL PROVIDE THE FASTEST PARKING EXPERIENCE FOR OUR VISITORS.

THIS IMAGE ON THE SLIDE. IT SHOWS ONE SCENARIO OF. OF MANY WE ARE PLACING SIGNS AS VISITORS COME FROM S H FIVE FROM US, 3 80, BUT I DID WANT TO SHARE THOSE EXAMPLES JUST TO ILLUSTRATE OUR CIRCULATION GOALS. WE ARE IN GENERAL TRYING TO AVOID DRIVERS. GOING INTO THE DOWNTOWN AREA. AND GOING IN CIRCLES TRYING TO FIND PARKING ON THE SQUARE. SO FOR EXAMPLE, IF YOU'RE COMING FROM LOUISIANA ARE PRIMARY RECOMMENDATION IS GOING TO BE TO MAKE A LEFT ON CHURCH. RIGHT ON HUNT AND THAT ALLOWS YOU TO PASS MANY OPTIONS AND PARKING LOTS WITH AN ULTIMATE DESTINATION OF THE CHESTNUT GARAGE. UM. BASED ON THE 2019 STUDY, THE CHESTNUT GARAGE ACTUALLY SHOWED THE AND THREE IN THE PEAK HOUR. IT WAS ONLY 30. FOUR. SO. AND WE BELIEVE HOPEFULLY THE SIGNAGE DOES. EDUCATE PEOPLE OF HEY, THERE'S MORE PARKING IN THE NORTH, AND WE HAVE A GREAT GARAGE THAT YOU SHOULD. YOU SHOULD TAKE ADVANTAGE OF. SO IF THE DRIVER DOES NOT. MAKE A LEFT ON CHURCH, FOR EXAMPLE, WE ARE GOING TO HAVE FURTHER SIGNAGE THAT WILL ENCOURAGE THEM TO. TO GO THROUGH THE DOWNTOWN AND CONTINUE UNTIL THE END OF A CHURCH OR CHESTNUT, MAKE A LEFT TO THE GARAGE. MM. SO I KIND OF TOUCHED ON DIRECTING TRAFFIC TO THE NORTH. AND THEN WE ARE GOING. TO CUT THE MINIMUM AMOUNT OF SIGNAGE THAT WE CAN. WE DON'T WANT TO. CREATE AND UM. AND ADD MORE SIGN IT TO OUR HISTORIC

[00:30:07]

1ST WHEN THIS CAN BECOME EFFECTIVE. AND THEN WAY FINDING SIGNAGE CHANGES WILL TAKE PLACE IN AUGUST AND YOU'LL HAVE ANOTHER WORK SESSION UPDATE FROM US IN THE FOURTH. THAT I'M AVAILABLE FOR ANY QUESTIONS. SINCE HER STAFF QUESTION. UH, SO THIS IS. I KNOW THAT WE, UM ALLOCATED MONEY TO SPEND, AND IT WAS A FAIRLY LARGE SUM ON I GUESS IT'S THE WAY FINDING ALL AROUND THE CITY. CORRECT? YES, SIR. AND THIS IS. JUST A PART OF IS THIS THEIR RECOMMENDATIONS? IS THIS YOUR RECOMMENDATIONS? WHO WHO. ARE WE GETTING OUR MONEY'S OUT OF THESE PEOPLE THAT WERE ALL OF THESE RECOMMENDATIONS ARE COMING FROM THE CONSULTANT AND THEY ARE HELPING SO EVERY EVERYTHING THE DESIGN WHERE WE'RE LOCATING THE SIGNS THAT ALL IS TRICKLING DOWN FROM THE CONSULTANT. THEY ARE WORKING HAND IN HAND WITH US, SO THAT'S FROM THE WAY FINDING CONSULTANT. WE'VE ASKED THEM TO ACCELERATE THE DOWNTOWN PORTION. OKAY THEIR WORK WHEN IT COMES TO MOVE FORWARD QUICKLY. SPECIFICALLY FOR THE PARKING SIGNAGE. WE STILL NEED TO GO THROUGH THE PROCESS DEVELOPED THE FINAL DESIGN AND THEN FIGURE OUT WE STILL NEED TO DISCUSS DESTINATIONS. UM. ALL THESE OTHER TOPICS, AND WE DO PLAN TO HAVE. AN OPEN HOUSE IN JULY AND A FULL WORK SESSION WITH COUNCIL IN AUGUST. SO WE WILL BE DISCUSSING EVERYTHING THAT THEY'RE WORKING UP TO THAT POINT. SO WE'RE. THEY'RE NOT GOING TO COME BACK TO YOU. WE GOT THESE SIGNS, BUT NOW WE NEED TO CHANGE THEM A LITTLE BETTER. WE NEED TO MOVE THEM. THIS IS PART OF THE PERMANENT. HOPEFULLY WHAT? WE'RE WHAT WE'RE PAYING FOR CORRECT. THE PERMANENT WAY FINDING ALL AROUND MCKINNEY. THIS IS A SMALL COMPONENT. UH HOWEVER, I DO. PERCEIVED THAT I DO EXPECT THAT THE MAJORITY IF NOT ALL OF THESE, THE BLUE PIECE WILL BE REPLACED WITH THE FINAL. MORE LUCRATIVE, BIGGER SIGNS THAT WILL DIRECT TWO DIFFERENT GARAGES AND LOTS. WE'RE PAYING, SO WE'RE JUST WE'RE SPENDING MONEY UP FRONT TO GET KIND OF SOLVE THE SHORT TERM PROBLEM WITH LARGE. OKAY YES, THAT'S WHAT I WAS THINKING OF ALL THIS. THANK YOU. UM. GOING TO DO SOMETHING A LITTLE ORDINARY

[00:35:07]

AND SO IF YOU'RE TAKING OUT ALL THE EMPLOYEES AND IF THOSE EMPLOYEES ARE COUNTED. AND I DON'T KNOW WHY THEY WOULDN'T BE CANDIDATES. ALL EMPLOYEES GOING TO BE REMOTE PARKING AND I'M ASSUMING CITY EMPLOYEES ARE GOING TO BE REMOTE PARKED AS WELL. AND SO IF YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE THE CITY, THE REMOTE PARKING AND PUT THEM IN THAT SAME GARAGE. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW YOU CAN GET OF. EVERYBODY THAT'S EMPLOYED DOWNTOWN IN THAT SPACE. I DON'T EVEN KNOW IF IT WOULD CAN HOLD. ALL OF MY EMPLOYEES DOWNTOWN ON FRIDAY NIGHT. I'M NOT SAYING IT CAN'T.

BUT I WOULD SAY THAT IF YOU SAY WE'RE GOING TO JUST TAKE AND GO TO CHEST, NOT CHESTNUT COMMONS, I DON'T KNOW IF THAT PARKING LOT THAT PARKING GARAGE WILL HOLD EVERYBODY I COULD BE WRONG. AND RICKS. THE HOTEL AND HARVEST IS GOING TO PUSH ABOUT 110 OR HUNDREDS SO EMPLOYEES ON FRIDAY OR SATURDAY NIGHT, WHICH I THINK THAT PARKING GARAGE HAS 350. PARKING SPACES IN IT, SO I'M NOT QUITE SURE. SO AGAIN. I CERTAINLY SUPPORT. COME OUT PARKING FOR OUR EMPLOYEES. I THINK WE NEED TO THINK ABOUT SECURITY. I THINK WE NEED TO THINK ABOUT MEN AND WOMEN, ESPECIALLY YOUNG WOMEN WALKING OUT OF RESTAURANTS. ONE O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING WITH CASH TIPS AND AFTER FOUR OR FIVE BLOCKS HAPPENS ALL OVER THE WORLD. I KNOW IT CAN HAPPEN HERE. I THINK IT'S A LITTLE BIT OF SHOCK TO OUR SYSTEM. AND I THINK THAT WE NEED TO THINK ABOUT THAT. AS WE SEND THESE YOUNG MEN AND WOMEN OUT TO THE CARS, 11 AND ONE O'CLOCK DO YOU THINK THAT WEAVES AS WELL? THE THINGS THAT WE CAN DO IS THE CITY. I THINK WE CAN, YOU KNOW, HAVE A BIGGER POLICE PRESENCE BETWEEN 11 AND ONE THERE'S SOME THINGS THAT WE CAN DO IS RESTAURANT TOURISM. HIS BUSINESS SOUND IS TO DO THAT. DON'T KNOW IF WE CAN DO THAT TWO WEEKS. IT'S JUST A PRETTY QUICK TIMELINE TO ME. UM. FEEL LIKE THIS SHOULD BE MAYBE SOME TYPE OF SHUTTLE. FOR A SPAN OF TIME JUST TO GET PEOPLE TO. THEY CAN KIND OF GET USED TO THAT. I WOULD BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO HELP UNDERWRITE A SHUTTLE. I HELP ON THE RIGHT THE SHUTTLE RIGHT NOW, AND I HAVE FOR YEARS. I'LL BE ONE HAPPY TO HELP. UNDER OUT ANOTHER SHUTTLE, BUT I DO FEEL LIKE THAT. WE NEED TO GIVE OUR EMPLOYEES JUST A LITTLE BIT MORE TIME AND A AND ALSO THE MERCHANTS DOWNTOWN TOO. TO ADDRESS THIS. HAVE ALSO BEEN TOLD THAT THE HARRIS PARKING LOT, WHICH I'M NOT SURE WHAT THAT NUMBER IS. WHAT I CALL THE HAIRS PARKING LOT. RIGHT THERE ON CHURCH STREET. UM. WE HAVE MAJOR WITH THREE HOUR PARKING WILL PUT A MAJOR STRAIN ON OUR HOTEL GAS IN OUR BORROWING GAS MOVING THE THREE HOUR PARKING IS WHAT I CALL THE HARRIS PARKING LOT IN THE PARKING LOT. WELL WHAT I CALLED MCKINNEY OFFICE SUPPLY WITHOUT ADDRESSING HOTEL PARKING WILL BE A TOUGH THING FROM ME PERSONALLY, AS I TAKE OVER THE HOTEL RENOVATION OF THE HOTEL. SO I KNOW THAT WE CAN WORK OUT THOSE THINGS OUT. AND I KNOW THAT THE CITY WILL LOCK ARMS WITH US TO HELP US FIGURE THAT OUT. I THINK, PULLING THE TRIGGER IN TWO WEEKS AGAIN. LITTLE TOUGH FROM US TO REALLY THINK ABOUT JUST HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE IN THE HOTEL IS STODA EVERY WEEKEND, SO THAT'S ANOTHER 50 OR 60 PARKING SPACES THAT THAT I WILL NEED TO FIND FOR THOSE GASSED AT SOME POINT IN TIME. AND SAID, PUTTING THAT THREE HOUR PARKING LOT KIND OF CONCERNS ME THERE. I DON'T THINK THAT THE REPORT NEAR TALKS ABOUT TECHNOLOGY THE WAY IT NEEDS TO I MEAN, WE TRAVEL AND SEE TECHNOLOGY HAPPENING ALL OVER THE WORLD NOW. WE HAVE THE GREATEST CITY OF ANY OF THEM. I TRULY BELIEVE THAT IN THIS REPORT DOES NOT DIVE DEEP ENOUGH AND THE TECHNOLOGY PIECE THAT WE CAN WE CAN MAKE HAPPEN. WE CAN MAKE THIS HAPPEN AS FAST AS WE CAN GET THOSE SIDES BUILDING EIGHT OR NINE OR 10 MONTHS OR WHATEVER IT IS. I MEAN, TECHNOLOGY IS SOMETHING WE NEED TO GRAB ONTO THE CITY IF WE'RE GOING TO MAKE MCKINNEY, TEXAS, ONE OF THE GREATEST CULTURE OF DOWNTOWN'S IN AMERICA, WE HAVE GOT TO GET TECHNOLOGY ON OUR SIDE FROM A PARKING STANDPOINT. THANK YOU FOR SQUEEZING ME AND I APPRECIATE IT. THANK YOU. COULD

[00:40:09]

[00:45:04]

I'M NOT SURE IS IT IS IT ON? IS IT WORKING NOW? YES. AND ALL OF OUR PUBLIC LOTS AROUND GOOGLE MAPS AND THEY SAY, IS IT I GET THAT? BUT ARE WE MAKING IT EASY FOR THE PERSON PULLING INTO DOWNTOWN TO GO ON THERE? BECAUSE LAST TIME I LOOKED AT WAS AND NOW HAVEN'T LOOKED IN A WHILE AND I'LL SAY I'LL SAY THAT I HAVEN'T LOOKED UNWELL. BUT. IS IT EASY FOR THE PERSON COMING INTO MCKINNEY NEVER BEEN HERE. WE'RE SENDING HIM TO A PARKING GARAGE. TO TRY TO GET HIM TO PARKING PARKING UP INSTEAD OF DRIVING AROUND A LOT FOR 400 TIMES OR SQUARE 300 TIMES. WE'RE WORKING ON IT. YES AND HOPEFULLY IF THEY LOOK FOR HISTORIC DOWNTOWN MCKINNEY, THAT'S I KNOW I DON'T WANT THEM. LOOK I DON'T WANT THEM LOOKING FOR IT. I WANT YOU TO MAKE THEM GO THERE. OKAY, THAT'S THAT'S WHAT I WANT. I WANT THEM TO GO. THIS IS WHERE I'M GOING. AND MAKING THEM LOOKING FOR IT IS WHEN THEY'RE DRIVING THROUGH DOWNTOWN NEVER BEING HERE BEFORE THEY'RE LOOKING AT EVERYTHING ELSE. SO I WANT THEM TO SAY THIS IS WHERE I'M GONNA GO PARK AND THIS IS THIS IS THE EASIEST IN A SEWER TO GO TO THE PARKING LOT. YES, I WANT THEM TO FIND AN EASY PARKING LOT. I WANTED TO MAKE IT EASY FOR THEM. I DON'T WANT THEM GOING THROUGH IT DOWN TO WHERE DO I PARK BUT IF YOU DIDN'T HAVE ALL THE EMPLOYEES PARKING IN LOT FOUR AND THEN A LOT WEST OF IMPACT, THEN YOU'D HAVE PARTNERS. I GET IT. I MEAN THAT. I MEAN, SO THAT THAT'S WHAT WE'RE WHERE WE ARE IS. WE DO THESE PARKING LOTS FOR? I MEAN THE CONSUMER OR FOR THE EMPLOYEE. WAS AT NINE O'CLOCK. BOTH OF THEM ARE FULL, AND THEY'RE FULL OF EMPLOYEES. THEY'RE FULL. THEY'RE FULL. WE'RE NOT FULL OF PEOPLE COMING TO DO BUSINESS, AND THAT'S WHAT WE. TO ME. THAT'S WHAT THESE PARKING LOTS ARE. FOUR IS TO BRING TWO PEOPLE COME IN AND CAN DO BUSINESS. WITH THE DOWNTOWN MERCHANTS. MOST PEOPLE THAT I TALK TO DON'T COME DOWN HERE BECAUSE OF THE PARK. WHAT? WHAT IT'S EASIER FOR THEM TO GO TO ALAN AND GET PARKING. I DON'T GET I'VE NEVER HEARD. I'VE HEARD PEOPLE SAY THAT, BUT I DON'T THINK IT'S TRUE. I MEAN, MOST PEOPLE ARE TAKING UBER OR LIFT TO COME DOWNTOWN. THAT IF THEY'RE COMING INTO THE EVENING TIME. BUT THE ONE THING LIKE ON THE PARKING ON RICK BROUGHT UP EARLIER IS OVER AT THE HOTEL. I'VE HAD SEVERAL PEOPLE SAY THAT THERE'S NO PARKING THERE IN THE AFTERNOON. AND IF WE CHANGE THAT TO THREE HOURS HECK, HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO YOU TO RIX? OR YOU HAVE A GOOD TIME. SO YOU'RE AND YOU'RE ENJOYING YOURSELF. I MEAN, YOU KNOW, AFTER THE EVENINGS, YOU KNOW, I GET IT. I GET IT. BUT IF YOU'RE IF YOU'RE COMING DOWN HERE IN THE AFTERNOON. AND YOU'RE SPENDING THE DAY. I JUST DON'T LIKE PUTTING ALL THESE CHALLENGES ON EVERYBODY. WHAT WOULD SAY FOR YOU THE POINT THAT RICK MADE ABOUT. TECHNOLOGY YOU KNOW, THERE'S CERTAINLY A WHOLE LOT THAT WE.

YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH WITH ENHANCED IN GREATER TECHNOLOGY. UM. SO THIS MAY NOT THIS MAY NOT BE FEASIBLE, BUT. IT SEEMS LIKE WE'RE TAKING A LARGE PARKING LOT. TAKING ALL THE PARKING SPACES AND MAKING THEM THREE HOUR. WHY COULDN'T WE SPREAD THAT OUT AMONGST ALL THE PARKING SPACES? ALL YOU GOTTA DO IS PAINT A THREE HOUR LEMON ON IT THAT THEY JUST PAINTED THEM DOWNTOWN WHERE IT'S VERY EASY TO RAID. YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR PARKING AN. AND SPREAD IT OUT AMONGST THE WHOLE SQUARE BECAUSE YOU'VE GOT ALL THESE PARKING LOTS. HAS THAT EVER BEEN LOOKED AT HER. YOU TALK ABOUT PARTIAL? YEAH. SO THAT THAT'S ONE IDEA. THE.

CHALLENGE THAT WE'RE DEALING WITH THE REASON THAT WE PROPOSED LOT FOUR IS A THREE HOUR LOT IS BECAUSE THERE IS SUCH AN IMBALANCE AND WHERE THE SUPPLY IS ACROSS DOWNTOWN. IT WOULDN'T REALLY BE, UM. NECESSARY TO DO THAT IN THE NORTHWEST CORNER. AM SORRY, NORTHEAST CORNER OF DOWNTOWN BECAUSE THERE IS JUST SO MUCH PARKING. THE LIMITING IT TO THREE HOURS DOESN'T NECESSARILY SOLVE A PROBLEM. BUT LIMITING IN THE SOUTHWEST AREA. MAYBE IT DOES. MAYBE YOU DON'T YOU DON'T WORK WITH THE NORTHEAST. YOU LEAVE THE NORTHEAST ALONE. AND THEN YOU GOT THREE PARKING LOTS ONE IN THE NORTH. WHEN COUNT IN BETWEEN, AND THEN ONE OF THE SOUTH. AND I THINK THAT'S ALSO A GOOD POINT. THERE IS ALSO AN OPTION TO, UM TO DO. PARTIAL PARTIAL LOT. IT MIGHT MAKE IT LESS EASY TO UNDERSTAND. FOR THE FIRST TIME VISITOR. BASED ON DO WE HAVE ENOUGH SIGNS? UM. BUT I THINK THAT'S ONE POSSIBILITY. SURE, OKAY. ARE

[00:50:11]

FIRST FOUR SPACES. THINK THERE'S SOMETHING TO YOU KNOW, THERE'S AN IDEAL THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT WITH EMPLOYEES BEHAVIORS. AND HAVING THE CIRCUMSTANCES THAT MAKE THEM COMFORTABLE TO PARK IN THE PLACES WHERE WE HAVE ACCESS DEMAND. I THINK THE TIMING IN WHICH WE'RE ASKING THAT. BEHAVIOR TRANSITION TO OCCUR. AS A LITTLE ABRUPT AND SO. I KIND OF LIKE WHAT RICK'S TALKING ABOUT WHERE YOU'RE. WE WE DO A LITTLE BIT OF THE, UH, THE TESTING WITH IT, BUT WE ALSO TRY TO FIND WAYS TO PROVIDE. CARROT TO ATTRACT PEOPLE TO THOSE SPACES WHERE WE HAVE THE EXCESS SUPPLY RATHER THAN JUST A WHOLESALE CUTTING OFF OF THE. THE SPACES THAT ARE THERE BECAUSE, RIGHT? THE THING I'VE ALWAYS HEARD FROM MERCHANTS DOWNTOWN IS THAT YOU KNOW, WITH ESPECIALLY WITHOUT LOT FOUR. YOU HAVE VERY LITTLE, UM, LONG TERM PARKING ON THE WHOLE SOUTH SIDE OF THE LOT. DAVID DAVID STREET BEING THE YOU KNOW, OVERWHELMING MAJORITY THAT WOULD BE LEFT. YOU'VE GOT A LITTLE BIT BY MUNICIPAL COURTS. YOU'VE GOT SOME BY THE WATER TOWER, BUT THERE'S NOTHING ON THE ENTIRE SOUTH SIDE. SO IF YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT RELOCATING 112. YOU KNOW THAT THAT FILLS UP WHAT THEY WHAT WE SHOW IS THE PEAK DEMAND DAVIS SQUARE AND THEN WE'RE ASKING PEOPLE. UM YOU KNOW, AT CADILLAC TO PARK ON THE EXACT OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE SQUARE OR SOMETHING IF THEY'RE WORKING FOR CATALOG AND SO I JUST THINK. THAT TRANSITION. WE CAN BE A LITTLE BIT IF WE COULD BE A LITTLE BIT MORE. UM. SOFT WITH AND THAT WE PROVIDE. THOSE THOSE KIND OF CARROTS TO HELP THAT ALONG AND I THINK IT OUTREACH TO THOSE BUSINESSES ON AND HOW. YOU KNOW THEIR INPUT ON WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE ONCE IT IS IMPLEMENTED, WHETHER THAT'S A SHUTTLE OR I MEAN, I KNOW FOR ME, I WAS THIS WAS ALL ABOUT TRYING TO HELP BUSINESSES. RIGHT THAT'S THE GOAL HERE. NO ONE'S TRYING TO PENALIZE ANYBODY. IT WAS ABOUT. WE FELT THAT A LOT OF FEEDBACK WE GET IS THAT PATRONS ARE NOT, UH OR NOT COMING DOWNTOWN BECAUSE THERE'S AN ISSUE IN PARKING AND BUSINESSES ARE SUFFERING. SO WE'RE JUST TRYING TO ADDRESS THAT, UM. AND AS WE START TO TAKE STEPS TOWARDS THAT WE'RE HEARING A WHOLE NEW SET OF CONCERNS FROM BUSINESSES THAT WEREN'T THE PREDOMINANT LOUD VOICE BEFORE. AND I THINK WHETHER WE HEARD IT BEFORE, OR WE HEAR NOW, ALL OF IT NEEDS TO BE TAKEN IN CONSIDERATION SO I WOULD BE IN FAVOR OF. CERTAINLY NOT ACTING ON THIS ORDINANCE TODAY. UM CONTINUING IT, UH, TALK WITH STAFF ON HOW WE ENGAGE THE BUSINESSES GET THEIR FURTHER INPUT NOW THAT THIS IS STARTING TO BECOME A POTENTIAL.

INEVITABLE REALITY THAT WE'RE GOING TO MAKE CHANGES AND. AND MAKE SURE WE'RE DOING IT IN A WAY THAT SUPPORTS OUR BUSINESS IS NOT HURTS HIM. BECAUSE JUST IN MY EXPERIENCE WHEN THIS WAS CHANGED IN DALLAS, THE ENFORCEMENT ACTION DROVE. THE ENFORCEMENT ACTION OF WRITING EVERYBODY TICKETS AFTER THE THREE HOURS DROVE EVERYBODY AWAY FROM THAT AREA. SO, UH AND I JUST KNOW THE HEAVY HAND IS NOT GOING TO WORK. DEGREE. ANYONE ELSE HAVE THOUGHTS ON IT AGAIN? WE'RE NOT ACTING ON AT THIS MOMENT, BUT IT WILL BE COMING DURING THE SEASON IN THE AGENDA. YEAH. WE'LL CALL THEM OFF CONSENT, IF THAT'S THE. I KNOW I'LL CALL IT OFF CONSENT, THEN I GUESS WE'LL DELIBERATE THAT POINT AND VOTE ON IT. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. NEXT ITEM. 21

[Discuss the Renaming of Throckmorton Street and Throckmorton Place]

YOU GET THE HONOR. AFTERNOON MAYOR MAYOR PRO TEM AND COUNCIL KIM FLOM ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER JOINED TODAY WITH ROBIN ROUTE TRAFFIC ENGINEER. WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT STREET, RENAMING,

[00:55:05]

MOST RECENTLY, THE CITY CHANGED A NAME BECAUSE WE TOOK FM 5 46 OFF SYSTEM AND WHEN WE DID THAT WE NEEDED TO CHANGE THE NAME OF THAT STREET. WE CHANGED IT TO WATLEY WAY WE DID THAT ABOUT 2019. REGARDLESS OF WHAT THE REASON IS, IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW WHAT THE PROCESS IS BECAUSE IT DOES REQUIRE QUITE A BIT OF COMMITMENT, MOSTLY FROM THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN OWN PROPERTY. ON THAT STREET. THE WORK WE DO AS A CITY IS PRETTY CUT AND DRY. IT'S A PROCESS WE FOLLOW, BUT A LOT OF THE EFFORT COMES FROM THE FOLKS WHO LIVE THERE. ROBIN IS GOING TO GO INTO A LOT MORE DETAIL ON THAT. ONE OF THE OTHER THINGS I WANT TO MENTION, BECAUSE YOU'RE PROBABLY LOOKING AT THIS SAYING, WELL, I KNEW ABOUT THROCKMORTON STREET. BUT WHAT IS THROCKMORTON PLACE? SOMETHING WE DO WHENEVER WE NAME STREETS IN THE CITY OR LOOK AT A RENAMING IS WE'RE GOING TO PULL THE DATA FIRST. THAT INCLUDES CANVASSING THE COMMUNITY, SEE IF THERE ARE ANY OTHER STREETS WITH THE SAME NAME. IN THIS INSTANCE THERE IS A SMALL TWO BLACK SECTION CALLED THROCKMORTON PLACE, HAS SOME HISTORY LINKED TO THRIVE MORE STREET. IT'S KIND OF RIGHT THERE. SO WE'RE BRINGING IT OUT. THERE IS AN INFORMATIONAL ITEMS THEY ARE TWO DISTINCT STREETS. WHAT YOU DO WITH ONE DOESN'T MEAN YOU HAVE TO DO THE SAME THING WITH ANOTHER, AND THEY ALSO HAVE OBVIOUSLY SEPARATE PROPERTY OWNERS AND RESIDENTS AND BUSINESSES ON BOTH STREETS. SO AS I MENTIONED, TODAY'S PRESENTATION IS INFORMATIONAL, ONLY WE'RE NOT PROVIDING A RECOMMENDATION ON WHETHER THE STREET SHOULD BE RENAMED OR NOT. HOWEVER WE WOULD CONCUR WITH SOME OF THE COMMENTS THAT WERE PROVIDED EARLIER THAT BECAUSE THE INVOLVEMENT. IS SO IT'S I DON'T WANT TO SAY ARDUOUS, BUT THERE IS A COMMITMENT FROM THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE AND OWN PROPERTY ON THE STREET. THEY'RE THE ONES WHO HAVE TO CHANGE THEIR ADDRESSES AND LETTERHEADS DRIVER'S LICENSE THAT IS BOTH TIME AND FINANCIAL COMMITMENT BECAUSE OF THAT, WE WOULD LOVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO CONNECT WITH THE PEOPLE. THOSE STAKEHOLDERS IF COUNCIL WANTED TO GO DOWN THIS ROAD. WE WOULD WANT TO REACH OUT TO THEM LEARN WHAT THEIR PERCEPTION IS AND LEARN THEIR INSIGHT. BRING THAT BACK TO COUNCIL FOR DISCUSSION PRIOR TO MOVING FORWARD WITH ANY FORMAL RENAMING PROCESS. SO WITH THAT I WILL INTRODUCE ROBIN WHO WILL GO INTO SOME MORE DETAILS ABOUT WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS WITH ST LOUIS. MAYBE AND CAN I ASK YOU A QUICK QUESTION FOR YOU? OF COURSE. HOW MANY BUSINESS DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY BUSINESSES ARE ON THAT STREET? I DO IT SO I CAN TELL YOU WHILE IT'S AT LEAST 10 BUSINESS PROPERTIES, BUT THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT ROBIN IS GOING TO GO INTO, BUT REALLY QUICK ABOUT 50 RESIDENTS, RESIDENTS. AND BUSINESS PROPERTIES AT HIGH SCHOOL AND A CHURCH THANK YOU. EXACTLY WHAT I WAS GOING TO GO INTO A LITTLE MORE DETAIL. YOU JUST BE ME. I JUMPED TO GUARANTEE OKAY? HAVE A GO. THE FIRST QUESTION. I KNOW THAT THERE WAS DISCUSSION ABOUT THE PLACE IN THERE AND ONE THING ABOUT THROCKMORTON STREET. WE DID. WE DID SOME RESEARCH THROCKMORTON STREET, ACTUALLY, UM, WENT STRAIGHT. AND SO IT WAS THE ALIGNMENT. I THINK IF I HIT THAT, YES, IT WENT CONTINUED STRAIGHT. SO IT WAS ACTUALLY THIS. THROCKMORTON PLACE WAS ACTUALLY STREET AT ONE TIME, AND THEN THEY REALIGNED. IT CHANGING THE ALIGNMENT TO THIS ONE. AND INSTEAD OF COMING UP WITH A NEW NAME, THEY JUST SAID WE'RE GOING TO NAME IT, THROCKMORTON. PLACE. SO THAT'S HOW THIS ROAD CAME ABOUT. IT IS NAMED AFTER GOVERNOR THROCKMORTON. I DID WANT TO POINT THAT OUT THE FIRST HISTORICAL DOCUMENTATION THAT WE CAN FIND WITHIN 18 86. THAT WE HAVE DOCUMENTATION. WE BELIEVE THAT IT WAS NAMED BETWEEN 18 72 IN 18 86 WHEN THE RAILROAD WAS BROUGHT TO MCKINNEY. AND THEN AND HE WAS GOVERNOR AT THE TIME THEY NAMED HIM. THE STREET CLOSE BY TO THE. TO THIS TO THE RAILROAD IS HOW THE NAME CAME ABOUT. TO TRY TO GET SOME HISTORICAL. THERE'S TWO HISTORICAL SITES THAT, UM,

[01:00:04]

THERE ARE 14 WE HAVE 16 OWNER OCCUPIED IN THOSE RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITIES. THERE IS POTENTIALLY 20 RENTAL PROPERTIES. THE NEXT IS OUR 10 COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES. WE DO HAVE SEPARATE TIN. UH COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES. THAT DOES NOT MEAN THAT WE ONLY HAVE 10 BUSINESSES. THERE COULD BE SWEETS THERE COULD BE ADDITIONAL BUSINESSES WITHIN EACH PROPERTY THAT WE HAVE. THERE IS ALSO 13 MULTI FAMILY SEPARATE UNITS THAT ARE ALONG THE THROCKMORTON PLACE AND PRONGHORN STREET. AND THEN I WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT OUR FUTURE MUNICIPALITY. UH MUNICIPAL COMPLEX. WE DO HAVE. ONE MULTI FAMILY THAT YOU KNOW, HERE IN ONE RESIDENTIAL THAT. WOULD OBVIOUSLY BE DIFFERENT. YOU KNOW THAT IT WILL BE. AS THE NAME CHANGE THAT MAY NOT IMPACT THOSE TWO. THERE'S SOME CONSIDERATIONS THAT WE HAVE TO TAKE INTO. WHEN WE NAME AND THEY COME INTO PRETTY MUCH FOUR CATEGORIES, ONE OF US THE RESIDENTIAL AND BUSINESS IMPACTS ANY TIME THAT WE CHANGE A STREET NAME OF ANY STREET ANYWHERE, IT WILL HAVE. IMPACTS ON THE RESIDENTS THAT LIVE THERE IN ANY BUSINESSES THAT HAS BUSINESS THERE. IT ALSO COULD HAVE A FINANCIAL IMPACT TO ANYBODY, RESIDENTS AND BUSINESSES ALIKE. THE THIRD IS THE NOTIFICATION TO THE TENANT AND THE LEASES. AS I MENTIONED THAT THERE WAS ONLY 20 ARE 16 OWNER OCCUPIED RESIDENTS. THAT MEANS THAT THERE ARE SOME THAT ARE NOT ALSO THE COMMERCIAL. THEY MIGHT NOT OWN THE BUILDING. MAYBE THEY HAVE A BUSINESS THERE. THE NOTIFICATION CAN BECOME CRITICAL BECAUSE ANY TIME YOU CHANGE YOUR NAME, YOU HAVE TO DO DIFFERENT THINGS LIKE YOUR DRIVER'S LICENSE OTHER THINGS IN ORDER TO DO IT, SO IT'S. IT IS ALSO IMPACT THE TENANT AND OUR NOTIFICATION TYPICALLY GOES TO THE PROPERTY OWNER AND THE PROPERTY UNDER WE RELY ON THE PROPERTY OWNER TO NOTIFY THE TENANT AND SOMETIMES THAT IS WHY. WHEN KIM MENTIONED THAT PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT THAT WE WANTED TO TRY IF COUNCIL CHOSE TO GO DOWN THAT ROAD TO TRY TO NOTIFY AND TALK TO THE TENANTS BECAUSE THEY WILL BE IMPACTED JUST AS MUCH AS THE PROPERTY ON EARTH THAT WILL BE. I WON'T READ THROUGH THIS ENTIRE LIST. BUT I THINK THAT IT'S IMPORTANT TO UH AND THIS IS NOT AN EXHAUSTIVE LIST BY ANY STRETCH OF THE IMAGINATION IS JUST SOMETHING THAT WE, YOU KNOW.

CAME FORWARD THE FINANCIALLY AND WHAT WOULD IMPACT SOME OF THE THINGS THAT ALTHOUGH THAT CITY MCKINNEY WOULD. ADDRESS 911 WE WOULD ADDRESS COLIN CAD. WE WOULD ADDRESS OUR CITY BUILDING. THERE ARE OTHER THINGS LIKE, YOU KNOW, UTILITY COMPANIES THAT THE RESIDENTS OR THE BUSINESS WOULD HAVE TO CHANGE. THEY? I THINK IT WAS MENTIONED PREVIOUSLY BUSINESS BRANDING THAT COULD HAVE A LARGE FINANCIAL IMPACT IF THEY HAD LETTERHEAD, MARKETING WEBSITES THAT THAT CAN HAVE A LARGE COST TO IT. THERE IS ALSO STATE FEDERALLY PRIVATE BUSINESS PERSONAL LICENSE, ALTHOUGH THAT MENTIONED THERE COULD BE A DRIVER'S LICENSE, BUT SOME BUSINESSES HAVE, UH. WORK THAT THEY DO THAT REQUIRES THE LICENSES THAT IS TIED TO THAT ADDRESS. IF WE CHANGED THE NAME, IT COULD IMPACT THEIR ABILITY TO DO THEIR WORK. AND SO WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT. THAT IS THAT PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT. ANOTHER THING IS GOVERNMENT GOVERNMENT AGENCIES. OTHER GOVERNMENT WE MIGHT HAVE SOMEBODY WHO HAS GOT VETERANS COULD BE SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFITS YOU COULD HAVE POTENTIALLY IN 2021. SADLY, UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS. ALL OF THOSE WILL HAVE TO BE. THAT WE ARE REQUESTING OF THE BUSINESSES. YOU KNOW, WITH A NAME CHANGE THAT THESE WILL BE IMPACTED AND THEY WILL SOURCES WILL BE IMPACTED. SOME OF THE OTHER CONSIDERATIONS THAT WE ALSO HAVE TO HAVE TO MENTION IS THE THIRD PARTY MAPPING SYSTEM. THESE ARE THINGS THAT WE DO NOT HAVE ANY CONTROL OVER. GOOGLE MAPS. APPLE MAPS WAYS ANY PROPRIETARY MAPPING SYSTEMS THAT ANY COMPANY DOES USES BACK UPS OR FEDEX THAT, YOU KNOW, DELIVER SERVICES TO US, AND THEN. PACKAGE DELIVERY SERVICES

[01:05:01]

ACTIONS. WHAT IS THE PLAN FOR? FEEDBACK FROM THE COMMUNITY RIGHT NOW, YOU KNOW, PER PERMIT, ROBIN SAID. I THINK WE WOULD DEVELOP A PLAN. UM AND THAT OBVIOUSLY, THE EASIEST THING IS CONNECTING WITH THE PROPERTY OWNERS VIA MAIL, BUT WE'D HAVE TO GO MUCH FURTHER THAN THAT, PARTICULARLY WITH. THE RENTAL RESIDENTS AND THE BUSINESSES. SO WE CERTAINLY HAVE OTHER DATABASES WE CAN DRAW FROM TO TRY TO PULL SOME OF THAT INFORMATION OUT. I ALSO THINK YOU KNOW WE'VE BUILT SOME GOOD RELATIONSHIPS WITH OUR EAST SIDE STAKEHOLDER GROUP. WE CAN HOPEFULLY LEAN ON THEM. I MEAN, IF THERE'S ANYTHING THAT WE'VE LEARNED THROUGH THAT PROCESS, IT'S YOU KNOW, TRY TO GO GO TO THEM SO WE WOULD PROBABLY DEVELOP A PLAN AND USE SOME ROBUST EFFORTS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE CONNECTING WITH EVERYONE WHO'S IMPACTED. HAVE A COMMENT. I'M NOT IN FAVOR OF RENAMING STREETS TO RENAME A STREET BECAUSE SOMEBODY MIGHT BE OFFENDED. UH WHAT I THOUGHT ON THIS PARTICULAR. STRETCH OF THROCKMORTON IS. BECAUSE WHEN WE WERE AT A MEETING, AND SOMEBODY WAS. TALKING ABOUT THE NEW CITY HALL AND WHERE IT IS, AND THEY SAID, THIS IS THE LEWISVILLE DISTRICT. THAT WILL. ONLY WAY THAT WOULD AGREE TO CHANGE PART OF THAT, OR SOME OF THAT, OR WHATEVER IS TO NAME IT. TO RECOGNIZE THE DISTRICT.

NOT SO MUCH. HEY, WE NEED TO GET RID OF A STREET NAME, BUT NO TO ME. IT'S RECOGNIZING THAT DISTRICT IN THAT COMMUNITY, AND I THOUGHT THAT THAT BE. THAT'S THE ONLY WAY THAT I AGREE WITH ANY CHANGE IS. DOING THAT TO RECOGNIZE SOMETHING ELSE THAT IN THAT COMMUNITY. SO, UM.

THAT'S YEAH. AND THEN I WOULDN'T. I WOULDN'T BE IN FAVOR OF RENAMING THE PLACE, BUT. WOULD GO FOR THAT IF WE DID THE WAS FILLED DISTRICT RIGHT? I MEAN, I JUST MIGHT WANT TO ADD. THERE ARE WAYS YOU CAN RECOGNIZE A SEGMENT OF THE STREET. SIGNAGE AND ARCHITECTURALLY, FRANKLY, IN SOME FEATURES. THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE CAN CERTAINLY LOOK AT.

SO IF THE COUNCIL WERE TO SAY SOMETHING ALONG THE LINES OF. KEEP THE NAME OF THE STREET BUT RECOGNIZE LOUIS FILL THAT LEWISVILLE DISTRICT. THERE'S WAYS WE CAN DO THAT THROUGH SIGNAGE, AND WE'RE ACTUALLY EVALUATING THAT SOME OTHER AREAS, BUT, UM, YOU KNOW YOU HAVE OPTIONS, AND WE'LL CERTAINLY LOOK AT THOSE AND BRING THEM BACK TO YOU. AND I'LL JUST MY TWO CENTS IN BECAUSE WHEN I SAW IT ON THE AGENDA WAS A LITTLE CONFUSED BECAUSE I KNOW I DIDN'T KNOW. ACTUALLY I DIDN'T KNOW THAT THERE WAS THIS MANY BUSINESSES.

I THOUGHT THERE WAS LESS. I THOUGHT THERE WAS LESS RESIDENTS TO. I KNOW THERE'S A LOT OF RENTAL PLACES THERE, BUT. HOW I THOUGHT WE WERE GOING TO DO. IT WAS THE AREA THAT THE MUNICIPAL COMPLEX WAS GOING TO TAKE UP. IN THAT AREA WOULD BE THE AREA THAT WOULD GO COEXIST WITH THE NAME CHANGE. THAT'S HOW I SAW IT. AND WHEN I SAW THIS WHOLE THING. WAS LIKE THE IMPACT THAT IT HAS ON EVERY ALL THE WAY UP. IS THAT'S A LOT TO ME. UH, SO I'M KIND OF WHERE RAIN IS AT WITH THAT. I THINK THAT'S A LOT OF CHANGE FOR SECTION ALL THE WAY UP. I DO AGREE THAT WHERE PAUL SAYS WHERE YOU SEE IN DIFFERENT CITIES WHERE YOU'VE GOT A DISTRICT THAT HAS A NAME ON TOP OF THE STREET NAME WHERE IT'S WHETHER IT'S BISHOP ARTS OR WHATEVER ELSE IT IS. YEAH, SIGN TOPPERS. I GUESS THAT'S WHAT I'M GETTING WHISPERED TO HEAR.

UH I. I UNDERSTAND OUR MUNICIPAL DISTRICT IS GOING TO TAKE UP HOW MANY BLOCKS. I

[01:10:01]

THAT ARE LARGELY INHABITED BY, YOU KNOW, UH, BLACK AND BROWN FACES AND MY QUESTION TO THEM IS. IS THIS IMPACTFUL TO YOU? IS THAT IMPACTFUL ENOUGH THAT YOU WOULD MAKE THE FINANCIAL INVESTMENT? IS IT WORTH IT TO YOU TO MAKE THE FINANCIAL INVESTMENT? INTO THIS AND THAT IS GOING TO BE PRIMARILY WHAT WE SHOULD BE LOOKING AT. I TEND TO AGREE ONE SLIDE THAT HAD THE IMPACT OF WHAT WOULD NEED TO CHANGE FOR THE RESIDENT OR THE COMMERCIAL BUSINESSES. THAT'S THE ONE THAT STRUCK ME THE MOST YOUNG. I DIDN'T. I DIDN'T EVEN THINK OF SEVERAL OF THE ITEMS THAT WERE ACTUALLY ON THERE. THIS IS NOT EVEN AN EXHAUSTIVE LIST. THIS IS JUST SOMETHING THAT WEEK. THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING. THAT'S A BASIC LIST. THERE'S STILL SEVERAL THINGS THAT WERE MISSING ON THAT. THAT WOULD BE IMPACTFUL. SO IF YOU WENT TO THE RESIDENTS, WOULD YOU TAKE THAT INFORMATION AND SAY YOU. OKAY WITH CHANGING THE NAME, AND HERE'S WHAT WE WOULD HAVE TO DO. ONCE IT'S CHANGED. YEAH LIKE I SAID, WE WOULD DEVELOP A PLAN KIND OF PROBABLY PULL A TEAM TOGETHER TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE CONNECTING, INFORMING SO THAT EVERYONE WHO'S ON THE STREET IS A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF. THE REQUEST AND WHAT'S INVOLVED AND THEN SEEKING FEEDBACK AND COMPILING THAT AND BRINGING IT BACK TO COUNCIL. JUST LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT OUR POSTAL SYSTEM DECIDED THEY WOULD CHANGE MIND. ZIP CODE 750 TO BRING UP THAT. ARE WE CHARLIE FIVE YEARS AGO, AND THE INTERNET STILL DOES NOT RECOGNIZE 75072 JUST HAVE TO PUNCH IT IN TWICE. ON JUST POINTING OUT DO NOT RELY ON OUR POSTAL SERVICE TO HELP US WITH THIS CHANGE. UH OH. I'VE GOT A COUPLE OF COMMENTS ON IT. ONE UM. LAST WEEK ON THURSDAY, I GOT TO DRIVE AROUND, UM. THIS AREA SPECIFICALLY WITH PASTOR LARRY JAGGERS ON A TOUR WITH BETH BENTLEY AND THE LEGACY. KEEPERS OF OLD EAST MCKINNEY AND. IT HAS HAVE SPENT. HOURS IN THIS AREA. I WAS ON THE BOARD OF HOLY FAMILY SCHOOL. I HAVE WORKED IN THAT GARDEN FOR DAYS IN THE HEAT. UM THE MCKINNEY HOUSING AUTHORITY, WHICH HAVE SERVED ON THE BOARD

[01:15:05]

[01:20:05]

STREET NAME THAT HAPPENS TO OFFEND SOME PEOPLE, SO LET'S TALK ABOUT IT. SO I'M IN FAVOR OF WHAT THE COMMUNITY WOULD LIKE TO SEE DONE IN THEIR COMMUNITY. ANYTHING LESS THAN THAT, I THINK IS RIDICULOUS. THAT'S MY COMMENTS. NO. TURN OFF MY EMAIL FOR THE REST OF THE EXTENT. TURN YOUR PHONE OFF. YEAH YEAH. YOU KNOW WHAT? AS YOU ALL KNOW, I DON'T CARE.
