[PUBLIC COMMENTS ON AGENDA ITEMS (For Non-Public Hearing Agenda Items)]
FIRST ORDER OF BUSINESS IS PUBLIC COMMENTS ON AGENDA ITEMS FOR NON PUBLIC HEARING AGENDA ITEMS. I DO HAVE A LIST OF PEOPLE THAT HAVE SIGNED UP TO SPEAK. THE FIRST WILL BE DAVID DAVID HEMMER. IF YOU'LL COME UP, YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES AS I THINK YOU KNOW, YOU CAN WATCH THE TIME AROUND YOUR LEFT. ALL RIGHT, AND I'LL GIVE YOU WHEN YOU'RE DOWN TO 30 SECONDS AND THEN FIVE. GOOD EVENING AGAIN. MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS. MY NAME IS DAVE HEMMER LIVE AT 8616 WEEK. FIELD DR MCKINNEY, TEXAS. MY HOME AS PART OF THE ESTATES COMMUNITY, CRAIG RANCH IS LOCATED ABOUT 100 YARDS FROM A PROPOSED. OPPOSED COMMERCIAL KITCHEN DEVELOPED BY CRAVE DELIVERY OUT OF BOISE, IDAHO, AT COLLIN MCKINNEY PARKWAY AND PIPER GLEN ROAD. I'M HERE TODAY TO THANK THE CITY COUNCIL FOR ADDRESSING THE ISSUE OF LARGE SCALE COMMERCIAL KITCHENS AND TO ASK THE CITY COUNCIL TO TAKE ACTION. ADDRESS OUR CONCERNS OVER GHOST KITCHEN DEVELOPMENTS IN MCKINNEY BY CONDUCTING A REGULATORY REVIEW THAT QUICKLY LEADS TO MODIFICATIONS OF OUTDATED MISALIGNED CITY CODES PERTAINING TO LARGE SCALE COMMERCIAL KITCHENS. WE BELIEVE THE CITY MCKINNEY HAS WRONGFULLY DETERMINED THIS TO BE A CLASSIFIED AS A RESTAURANT, ITS PLAN TO HAVE 12 TO 16 KITCHENS UNDER 1 18,000 SQUARE FOOT ROOF PRIMARILY FOCUSED ON HIGH VOLUME FOOD DELIVERY. LAST TUESDAY, THE CITY COUNCIL HEARD FROM SEVEN CONCERNED MCKINNEY RESIDENTS THAT SHARED A COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW OF OUR CONCERNS AND ALSO PRESENTED A PETITION OF NEARLY 400. MCKINNEY'S CITIZENS ON THIS VERY TOPIC. IS OUR CONCERNS, UM, THAT WE DO NOT WANT TO LOSE OUR HOME VALUE APPRECIATION THAT ARE BASED ON A VERY VALID CONCERNS AROUND SAFETY, HEALTH AND WELFARE. OF THOSE LIVING NEARBY. THIS UM, THIS PLANNED GHOST KITCHEN. WE FEEL THAT OUTDATED MCKINNEY ORDINANCES ARE BEING EXPLOITED HERE TO CAPITALIST BY GAINING QUICK ACCESS TO NEARBY CITY, AS STATED BY THIS COMPANY OF HIGHLY DESIRED FRISCO MARKET AS DAVID KREAGER, FOUNDER OF CRAIG GRANT, SAID AT THE APRIL 13TH PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION MEETING. AND I PARAPHRASE JENNIFER ARNOLD AND HER PLANNING STAFFER. TOP NOTCH. HOWEVER, I FEEL THEY GOT THIS ONE WRONG AND THIS IS AN INAPPROPRIATE USE FOR THIS SITE. I FULLY AGREE WITH DAVID CRAIG 12 TO 16 KITCHENS UNDER AN 18,000 SQUARE FOOT ROOF SHOULD NEVER BE CONSIDERED A RESTAURANT. NEVER SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO BE LOCATED IN C ONE OR C TWO ZONING AND POSES TOO MANY SHORT AND LONG TERM HEALTH AND SAFETY RISK FOR NEARBY RESIDENTS. I ASKED OUR CITY COUNCIL AGAIN AND IT'S VERY SIMPLE. DO NOT ALLOW A COMPANY FROM BOISE, IDAHO, WHO HAS SHOWN NO SINCERE INTEREST OR TRUE EFFORT AND COMMUNICATING WITH CONCERN MCKINNEY CITIZENS OR THE MANAGER OF THE ARTISTRY.TO EXPLOIT MCKINNEY'S OUTDATED AND MISALIGNED CITY CODES. ADDITIONALLY I ASK, DO NOT ALLOW LARGE SCALE MULTIPLE KITCHEN FACILITIES, WITH THE PRIMARY FOCUS ON FOOD DELIVERY.
TO BE PERMITTED IN MCKINNEY C ONE OR C TWO ZONING UNTIL A FORMAL AND COMPREHENSIVE STUDY IS DONE POTENTIAL IMPACT OF TRAFFIC SAFETY AND POTENTIAL HEALTH RELATED CONCERNS DUE TO AIR QUALITY ISSUES. MCKINNEY HAS A CHANCE TO GET THIS RIGHT TODAY. PLEASE DO NOT LET THIS PROBLEM AND LEGAL LIABILITY FOR MCKINNEY COULD BE PERHAPS DEALING WITH THIS FOR MANY YEARS TO COME AGAIN. THANK YOU FOR ADDRESSING THESE CONCERNS. SO MANY MCKINNEY RESIDENTS APPRECIATE THE TIME TODAY. THANK YOU, GREG EVERETT. THANK YOU. MY NAME IS GREG EVERETT AND I LIVE AT 63 1 SOUTH WIND LANE MCKINNEY. MY HOME IS A PART OF THE ESTATES COMMUNITY AND CRAIG RANCH LOCATED ABOUT 400 YARDS FROM THE PROPOSED SITE. WE AS RESIDENTS WANT TO THINK AND RECOGNIZE THE CITY COUNCIL. EFFORTS THIS PAST WEEK AND THINK THE CITY COUNCIL FOR LISTENING TO OUR CONCERNS, BUT THERE IS MORE TO DO LAST WEEK YOU HEARD ABOUT THE PETITION OF MORE THAN 400 RESIDENTS SIGNED BY CONCERNED RESIDENTS OPPOSED TO THE LOCATION OF THE GHOST KITCHEN FOR GHOST KITCHEN REPRESENTATIVE TO STATE AN EMAIL TO YOU GUYS TODAY. THAT THEY WERE WORKING WITH THE COMMUNITY IS DISINGENUOUS AT BEST. UM MY WIFE AND I WERE PART OF A GROUP THAT HELPED GATHER SIGNATURES AND WE MET MOST OF OUR NEIGHBORS ON SOUTH WIND IN BOSTON WITH A SUPER MAJORITY OPPOSED TO THIS DEVELOPMENT. THIS GROUP. THIS DIVERSE GROUP OF SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE LIVING IN 1 TO $4 MILLION HOMES, RETIREES, AFRICAN AMERICANS, ASIAN AMERICANS, BUSINESS OWNERS, DEVELOPERS, BUILDERS. ETCETERA MANY INVITED US INTO OUR THEIR HOME TO CHAT ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR GHOST KITCHEN DEVELOPMENT, THE COMMON THEME SHARED BY EVERYONE WAS THEIR APPRECIATION FOR US FIGHTING THIS PROJECT. IN THE SHARED VALUE THAT THEY LOVE OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. THESE RESIDENTS
[00:05:01]
CHOSE A GATED COMMUNITY WITH STRICT AWAY GUIDELINES AND COVENANTS THAT THEY EXPECT THESE COVENANTS TO BE UPHELD. IN ADDITION TO ALL THE ISSUES ADDRESSED TODAY, BEFORE THE CITY COUNCIL, I REMIND EVERYONE. BUT THIS PROJECT VIOLATES THE CRAIG GRANT COVENANTS. THESE PEOPLE WANT TO LIVE IN THEIR LAW, LIVE THEIR LIVES AND RELAX. IN THE RESPITE OF A QUIET, SECLUDED NEIGHBORHOOD. ANY GHOST KITCHEN WOULD DISRUPT AND DISTURB THE QUALITY OF LIFE. DAVE DAVE TYLER MYSELF FOR LIMITING THE FACT A WEEK AGO WHEN WE WERE AT DAVE'S HOUSE, DISCUSSING HOW TO PERSUADE. THE CITY COUNCIL, DAVID CRAIG AND CRAVE FROM BUILDING ON THIS SITE. WE EACH WOULD RATHER BE LIVIN LIFE, ESPECIALLY AFTER THE PANDEMIC RATHER THAN STANDING IN FRONT OF YOU TRYING TO APPEAL TO YOUR BETTER ANGELS TO DO THE RIGHT THING. LASTLY, ON A PERSONAL NOTE, MR MAYOR. I HAVE NO DOUBT THAT YOU WANT THE BEST FOR MCKINNEY. WE HAVE APPRECIATE YOUR FULL THROATED SUPPORT TO FIND A BETTER PLACE FOR THIS DEVELOPMENT LEADERSHIP MATTERS. MY WIFE AND I CHOSE MCKINNEY AS OUR NEW HOME FROM PLANO BECAUSE OF THE ESTATES OF CRAIG RANCH BECAUSE OF THE COST COURSE AT CRAIG RANCH, AND MY WANTING TO LEARN TO PLAY GUITAR AT A PLACE CALLED THE GUITAR SANCTUARY. OKAY. SHANE DOES A GREAT JOB.ALLEN'S MY GUITAR TEACHER. WE'VE GOT TO BE FRIENDS OVER THE LAST YEAR AND A HALF. HE'S A GREAT GUY. HE CHIDES ME ALL THE TIME PRACTICE MORE, AND I'M GOING TO BE A BETTER PLAYER.
WORRYING AND OBSESSING ABOUT MY FAMILY, MY HEALTH, THE CONCERNS OF MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY DURING THE PANDEMIC, UM, HAS LED TO NOT AS MUCH GUITAR PRACTICE THAT I LIKE ANYWAY, THE PANDEMIC IS FADING. BUSINESS IS BOOMING, AND ALAN ASKED ME WHY I'M NOT PRACTICING MORE. TELL HIM THERE'S JUST ONE THING. IT'S THIS GHOST KITCHEN THING. OKAY? SERIOUSLY HELP YOUR NEIGHBORS GET BACK TO THEIR LIVES. LET THEM DO THE THINGS THAT THEY WANT. STOP THIS GHOST KITCHEN. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. DAVID KASMAN. I'M DAVE KASMAN AND I RESIDE AT 62 09. HERE IN BAY LANE AND AGAIN. THANK THANK YOU FOR LISTENING TO OUR ISSUES. IN THE INTEREST OF HEALTH, SAFETY AND WELFARE OF THE COMMUNITY AT LARGE, THE COUNCIL NEEDS TO TAKE IMMEDIATE ACTION TO ADDRESS THE UNIQUE ISSUES CREATED BY WHAT IS COMMONLY BEING REFERRED TO AS A GHOST KITCHEN. WHILE WE HAVE A GREAT STAFF, UH, BUT THEY HAVE ERRONEOUSLY CLASSIFIED THEM AS A RESTAURANT AND DID NOT TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION OTHER FACTORS WHICH SET THEM APART.
FROM WHAT IS COMMONLY CONSIDERED TO BE A RESTAURANT. EVERYONE HEARD AT THE LAST MEETING SEVERAL OF THE MAJOR ISSUES I'M NOT ASSOCIATED WITH GHOST KITCHEN, SO I DON'T NEED TO REGURGITATE THAT HERE. BUT THE PLAIN AND SIMPLE TRUTH IS STAFF MADE A MISTAKE IN CALLING A GHOST KITCHEN, A RESTAURANT. UNFORTUNATELY I KEEP HEARING THAT STAFF MADE THE DECISION THAT GHOST KITCHENS OR RESTAURANTS. THAT TO CHANGE. THAT DECISION MIGHT LEAD TO LIABILITY AND THE CITY'S PART. NOW, IF I MAKE A BAD DECISION THAT WRONGS ANOTHER PERSON DO WHAT I CAN TO MAKE IT RIGHT? THE CITY'S POSITION. THERE SEEMS TO BE THAT IT'S BETTER TO PERPETUATE THIS WRONG DECISION RATHER THAN TO DO THE RIGHT THING. SO I URGE THE COUNCIL TO REVERSE THE ILL INFORMED DECISION BY STAFF THAT AN 18,000 SQUARE FOOT COMMERCIAL KITCHEN WITH THREE DELIVERY LANES, WHICH RESULTS AND NOXIOUS ORDERS, GARBAGE AND TRAFFIC LEVELS, WELL BEYOND A RESTAURANT AS COMMONLY UNDERSTOOD. AND CALL IT WHAT IT IS. THAT IS, IT'S AN ACTIVITY THAT SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO OPERATE IN A LIGHT INDUSTRIAL AREA OR ONE THAT DOES NOT IMPACT RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES. THANK YOU. DAVID, ENGLAND. GOOD AFTERNOON. I'M DAVID, ENGLAND. I LIVE AT 86 08 WHITEFIELD DRIVE IN THE ESTATES AND CRAIG RANCH ON THE FIRST STREET AND ADJACENT TO THIS PROPERTY, THIS SITE FOR THE CRAVE RESTAURANT.
THANK THE COUNCIL FOR TAKING UP THIS MATTER AND HEARING YOUR FROM THE PETITION FROM THE NEIGHBORS OVER 400 PEOPLE, MANY OF THEM IN THIS ROOM, SIGNED ASKING YOU TO TAKE ACTION AND THANK YOU FOR DOING THAT TODAY. WE'RE CONCERNED THAT THE CITY AND THE CITIZENS ARE BEING TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF. CRAVE TO BUILD A COMMERCIAL FOOD PRODUCTION FACILITY UNDER THE CITY'S VERY WEAK DEFINITION OF RESTAURANT AS YOU'VE HEARD THE OTHER SITE. EMAIL CRAIG CRAVE JUST AS I HAVE MANY OF YOU ON THE COUNCIL AND I ASKED THEM TO WITHDRAW THEIR APPLICATION.
THIS MORNING, I RECEIVED A REPLY FROM CREDIT, WHICH WAS SHOCKING. SAYING HOW THEY HAVE WORKED CLOSELY WITH THE CITY ARTISTRY AND CRAIG RANCH. NOT ONCE IT CRAVE, ACTUALLY EVEN SPOKEN TO US, LET ALONE WORK WITH US. THEY'RE DISINGENUOUS. THIS MATTER. WHAT DO YOU THINK
[00:10:05]
THEY'RE DOING WITH YOU IN THE CITY? CRAVE IS TRYING TO FORCE THEIR 18,000 SQUARE FOOT PRODUCTION AND DELIVERY FACILITY INTO MCKINNEY'S LACKS ZONING DEFINITION OF A RESTAURANT. YOU NEED TO STOP THAT. WE ASKED THE COUNCIL TO DIRECT STAFF TO STUDY THE HEALTH AND SAFETY IMPACT. I'M VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE IMPACT OF AIR QUALITY OF THE RESIDENTS, INCLUDING MY FAMILY. THANK YOU. MARIANNE MULHERIN. MR MAYOR BEFORE THE GENTLEMAN SITS DOWN. COULD I ASK. WHO IT WAS FROM CRAVE. WHO SENT HIM THAT MESSAGE. THAT BE SHANNON MHM. THANK YOU. SO SORRY. IT'S A START, MA'AM. IT'S OKAY. MY HOME IS AT 86 9 WAKEFIELD.DRIVE IN MCKINNEY. AND MY, UM. HOUSE BACKS UP DIRECTLY TO THIS PROPERTY. I'M A TAXPAYER. I VOTED FOR YOU, MERE FULLER AND I VOTED FOR VERY RAINY, AND I ALSO VOTED FOR CHARLIE PHILLIPS.
A WISE WOMAN. OKAY, UM. I FEEL THAT YOU HAVE DONE A GOOD JOB FOR THE PEOPLE OF KENNY, BY AND LARGE, AND, UM, I'VE ALWAYS SUPPORTED THIS COUNCIL. MAYOR FULLER. I PRAYED FOR YOUR DAUGHTER WHEN I HEARD THAT SHE HAD COVID 19. SO I'M NOT AN ENEMY OF THIS CITY. BUT I AM HERE ASKING THAT YOU WOULD PLEASE HELP ME AND THE MEMBERS OF MY COMMUNITY IN STOPPING CRAVE GHOST KITCHEN. THAT'S PROPOSED FOR THE PROPERTY AT COLLIN MCKINNEY AND PIPER GLEN.
UM. HOW CAN YOU AND THE CITY COUNCIL THE PLANNING AND ZONING, UM, DEPARTMENT, THE CITY MANAGER? THIS A PLANNER? HOW CAN YOU ALLOW A FOOD PROCESSING? PLANT TO BE BUILT IN THE MIDDLE OF A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD. I KNOW THAT YOU'RE CALLING IN A RESTAURANT.
IT IS NOT A RESTAURANT. AND CRAVE. DOES NOT FIT THE DEFINITION OF A RESTAURANT BECAUSE THEY DID NOT HAVE ANY ON SITE. DINING. UM YEAH. PROVISION AND AT THE VERY FIRST PLANNING AND ZONING UH PLANNING AND ZONING MEETING. WE HAD SHANNON ON THE PHONE, AND THEY ASKED HER SPECIFICALLY ABOUT ON SITE DINING, AND SHE CLEARLY STATED THERE WOULD BE NO ON SITE DINING. NOW, ALL OF A SUDDEN TO FIT THE DEFINITION. RESTAURANT THEY HAVE TWEAKED THEIR PRODUCT, AND NOW THEY'RE SAYING THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE OUTDOOR PATIO, SITTING SEEDING AND IN INDOOR SEATING OF A CAFE. AND SO AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED, THIS IS JUST A SCAM.
THEY'RE JUST TRYING TO SCAM THE CITY OF MCKINNEY INTO MAKING THEMSELVES LOOK LIKE A RESTAURANT. THEY ARE NOT A RESTAURANT. AND I CAN'T EMPHASIZE ENOUGH. THE OTHER THING IS I NOTICED UP HERE ON THIS MCKINNEY FIRST CITY COUNCIL GOALS AND STRATEGIES, THE ONE UP HERE ON THE TOP ON THE TOP RIGHT THERE, IT SAYS. THAT ONE OF YOUR GOALS IS TO ENHANCE THE QUALITY OF LIFE IN MCKINNEY. SO HOW DO YOU THINK THAT PUTTING A GHOST KITCHEN IN THE MIDDLE OF A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD WILL ENHANCE THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR ANY OF US? HAVE YOU THOUGHT ABOUT THE RESIDENTS WHO WILL SMELL THE GREASE AND THE OTHER WASTE PARTICLES ADMITTED INTO THE AIR. HAVE YOU THOUGHT ABOUT THE EFFECTS OF WHAT THIS WILL HAVE THE EFFECTS ON THE HEALTH? OF THOSE WHO HAVE TO BREATHE THIS FILTH DAY IN AND DAY OUT. HAVE YOU THOUGHT ABOUT ANY OF THESE THINGS? DO YOU HAVE A SOLUTION TO ADDRESS THE TRASH? THE ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF TRASH THAT. I'VE HEARD ANYTHING FROM 12 TO 14 TO EIGHT KITCHENS, THE AMOUNT OF TRASH THAT THEY'RE GOING TO THAT THEY'RE GOING TO GENERATE AND THE INFESTATION OF RODENTS. I COULD GO ON. YOU'VE GOT THE, UH, YOU GET THE IDEA. THERE'S TWO THINGS AT STAKE HERE. THIS IS NOT A RESTAURANT AND YOU NEED TO DO YOUR JOB AND STOP THIS BECAUSE THIS IS NOT FAIR TO THIS COMMUNITY. THANK YOU. DORIS GOOCH. WHICH COACH. I JUST THINKING. OH, OKAY. I'M GEORGE SCOOCH. I DIDN'T KNOW I WAS SPEAKING. BUT I'M NOT HAPPY ABOUT THIS EITHER. HAS ANYBODY LOOKED AT THE ROAD TO SEE HOW NARROW IT IS? MY FIRST THOUGHT WAS WHEN I HEARD ABOUT THIS GOING IN, FOLLOW THE MONEY. SO WHO'S GETTING SOME MONEY FOR DOING THIS. THIS IS A SCAM FOR
[00:15:04]
US, AND LIKE MARY, AND SET IT. CIT CITY OF MCKINNEY IS SUPPOSED TO CARE ABOUT THEIR PEOPLE. THIS ISN'T YOUR NOT CARING ABOUT IT, AND I DON'T UNDERSTAND. DAVID CRAKE NOT DOING SOMETHING. PLUS WE NOW HAVE THE BYRON NELSON. THAT'S GOING TO BE REALLY GREAT TO GO BUY A FACTORY ON THE WAY TO THE GOLF COURSE. DOES ANYBODY. CONSIDERED PUT LIVED IN OUR SHOES. WE HAVE HOMES. THERE ARE OVER A MILLION DOLLAR AND THEY'RE IN THE SUBDIVISION.NOBODY CARES. THE REASON WHY SOMEBODY UP HERE IS GET MONEY, AND IT MAY BE YOU, MAYOR. THIS WILL BE THE LAST TIME YOU GUYS HAVE MY VOTE UNLESS YOU DO SOMETHING FOR US. THANK YOU.
YEAH. SO JUST TO BE JUST TO BE CLEAR IS THE APPLAUSE THAT YOU THINK THAT GEORGE FULLER IS RECEIVING MONEY, AND THAT'S WHY WE'RE SITTING HERE TODAY. JUST JUST I WANT TO BE CLEAR. WELL, YOU KNOW? NO NO, MAN, I JUST KNOW. FOLLOW THE MONEY. WHEN THINGS LIKE THIS HAPPENS, USUALLY SOMEBODY'S GETTING SOME GETTING THE PAYBACK, NICOLE, UH AND NOW WENT TO PAY THAT.
NICOLE PETRELLA. HELLO. ALRIGHT MY NAME'S NICOLE PETROL A 6005 HERON BAY LANE. I'VE BEEN QUIET THROUGH ALL OF US AND ALL OF THESE MEETINGS. I AM THE ONE THAT IS SENDING EMAILS. I AM GOING DOOR TO DOOR. I HAVE STOOD BY GATES. I HAVE GOT PETITION SIGNED. AND I AM TALKING TO ALL OF MY NEIGHBORS ABOUT THIS, AND I'M FED UP HERE IS A VERY SHORT EXCERPT. THE EMAIL THAT I AM SENDING CRAIG DELIVERY TODAY, SO JUST SO YOU KNOW WHERE THIS WHAT RESEARCH I HAVE DONE. I HAVE BEEN A RESIDENT AT THE ESTATES OF CRAIG RANCH FOR NINE YEARS. NOW I AM AN OPPOSITION OF YOUR PROPOSED COMMERCIAL KITCHEN. LET'S CALL IT WHAT IT IS BEING BUILT 200 YARDS FROM MY FRONT DOOR. IT IS AN AMAZON TYPE FACILITY SET UP FOR FOOD. LET ME MAKE THIS CLEAR. I AM DISGUSTED WITH CRAVE DELIVERY. THE FACT THAT YOU HAVE BEEN MET WITH OPPOSITION FROM THE RESIDENTS OF THIS NEIGHBORHOOD ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS AND YET SHOW NO CONCERN FOR THE COMMUNITY TELLS ME SOMETHING ABOUT YOUR COMPANY. I HAVE WONDERED WHY, WHEN GIVEN OTHER POTENTIAL OPPORTUNITIES TO RELOCATE AND SPEAK TO YOUR RESIDENTS, YOU RESIST YOUR PERSISTENT DISREGARD FOR OUR NEIGHBORHOOD AND FOR THE RESIDENTS WITHIN. IT SHOWS NOTHING POSITIVE ABOUT YOU. SO I HAVE SOME FACTS, THE EMISSIONS AND POLLUTION THAT IS GOING TO BE PRODUCED FROM THIS COMMERCIAL KITCHEN ARE DANGEROUS TO OUR HEALTH AND OUR LUNGS. DO YOU REALIZE THAT A LOT OF RESIDENTS WALK AND EXERCISE OUTSIDE EVERY SINGLE DAY? DO YOU REALIZE THAT KIDS PLAY AND RIDE THEIR BIKES THERE? THAT IS WHAT PEOPLE DO IN RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS, NOT INDUSTRIAL PARKS, WHERE THIS BUSINESS BELONGS. DO YOU KNOW WHAT EMISSIONS WILL DO TO A PERSON'S LUNGS OVER TIME? HAVE YOU EVER CONTACTED A PULMONOLOGIST, A RESPIRATORY THERAPIST? HAVE YOU READ THE CLINICAL STUDIES ABOUT EXPOSURE TO THESE CHEMICALS? I HAVE HAS ANYONE READ THE CDC STUDY? I HAVE. DID YOU KNOW THAT THE ARTISTRY THE SENIOR LIVING HOME THAT IS LOCATED LESS THAN 200 FT FROM YOUR PROPOSED KITCHEN, PROPOSED LOCATION WILL DECREASE THEIR QUALITY OF LIFE FOR THOSE SENIOR CITIZENS. WHO WOULD LIKE TO SIT OUTSIDE ON THEIR BALCONY. CEASE MERYL HERE, A COMMERCIAL KITCHEN. WOULD ANYONE PUT THEIR MOTHER THEIR FATHER, THEIR GRANDMOTHER OR THEIR GRANDFATHER TO LIVE BY THAT? UNLESS ANYONE IS HEARTLESS AND SPINELESS, THE ANSWER WOULD ALWAYS BE NO. DO NOT CARE THAT THEY'RE GOING TO POSSIBLY HAVE A CAFE AND OUTDOOR SEATING. WHY WOULD I WANT TO SIT OUTSIDE NEXT TO A PARADE OF DELIVERY VEHICLES? I WILL NOT EAT THERE, AND I WILL TELL EVERY SINGLE PERSON I KNOW. SOCIAL MEDIA CAN HELP THEM. IT CAN ALSO EXPOSE THEM. A COUPON WILL NOT CHANGE MY MIND. A DISCOUNT WON'T CHANGE MY MIND AND HAVE EXCEPTIONAL CHEF DOES NOT MATTER TO ME. PLEASE KNOW THAT THIS IS CAUSING ANXIETY, STRESS AND OPPOSITION TO A GROUP OF TEXAS RESIDENTS WHO LIVE IN A COMMUNITY WHERE THEY ARE NOT WANTED. THE COMMERCIAL KITCHEN WILL AFFECT OUR QUALITY OF LIFE, OUR HEALTH, OUR PROPERTY VALUES AND OUR SAFETY. THANK YOU. ANITA PENDANT. WE NEED A PENNA.
GOOD AFTERNOON. UH I LIVE AT 5700 RIVER HIGHLANDS DRIVE. UH AND I JUST WANTED TO POINT OUT
[00:20:05]
JUST EVERYBODY SAID I THINK VERY FULLY A LOT OF THE THINGS THAT THAT WE'RE CONCERNED ABOUT. BUT ONE OF THE THINGS I WOULD LIKE TO TELL YOU ABOUT CRAVE IS THAT THEY'VE BEEN VERY DISINGENUOUS. FIRST MEETING WE GOT ONE ANSWER. SECOND MEETING WE GET ANOTHER ANSWER. THIRD MEETING WE GET ANOTHER ANSWER. AND SO I THINK THAT I WOULD BE CAUTIOUS TO DO BUSINESS WITH SOMEONE WHO DOESN'T JUST STAND UP AND HERE'S THE PLAN. AND FRANKLY, IF WE HADN'T BEEN AT THE FIRST MEETING. THEY WOULD HAVE PASSED. I MEAN, THEY WOULD HAVE JUST GONE RIGHT THROUGH.AND I THINK THAT I APPRECIATE THE, UM, THE COMMUNITY FOR COMING TOGETHER, AND I KNOW THAT YOU AS ELECTED OFFICIALS I KNOW YOU DEAL WITH ALL KINDS OF THINGS THAT ARE WONDERFUL, AND THEN THINGS THAT ARE VERY, A LOT TOUGHER. WE NEED YOU. WE NEED YOU TO WEED ON THIS. WE NEED YOU. I MEAN, WE HAD A GREAT GOLF TOURNAMENT. AND IT LOOKED GOOD ON TV, EVEN WRITE MY FAMILY FROM AROUND THE STATE WAS CALLING ME AND LETTING ME KNOW SO THEY'RE ALL GOING TO BE HERE NEXT YEAR. BUT BESIDES THAT, UH, WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO? WE ARE GATES WERE CLOSED SO THAT IT WOULDN'T BE DISRUPTIVE. ARE WE GONNA SHUT DOWN THE GHOST KITCHEN FOR 67 DAYS BECAUSE LORD KNOWS THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE A FEW CARS, RIGHT? SO I THINK IT'S THE PRACTICALITY THAT WE'RE BRINGING TO THE TABLE TODAY. THE PRACTICALITY OF THIS KIND OF DISTRIBUTION CENTER, AND THAT'S REALLY WHAT IT IS. THEY MIGHT BE. MAKING IT THERE, BUT THEY'RE DISTRIBUTING IT FROM THERE. UM. THE LAST POINT I'D LIKE TO MAKE IS THAT, UM WE THE LAST MEETING, WE SAW A LOT OF PLANNING AND ZONING DISCUSSION GOING ON FOR OTHER AREAS. WE WOULD HAVE LIKED TO HAVE THAT HAVE HAD THAT. YOU KNOW THAT OPPORTUNITY BEFORE ANYTHING WENT FORWARD, THAT WE DIDN'T REALLY GET THAT. AND SO I KNOW IT CHANGED AND YOU KNOW, THERE'S A LOT OF EXPLANATIONS THAT CAN GO ON THERE. BUT. UM I'VE BEEN A PUBLIC SERVANT IN TERMS OF WORKING FOR A PUBLIC ENTITY AND NO, IT'S TOUGH. IT'S ALWAYS BETTER JUST TO BE UP FRONT AND SAY, GOSH, WE MADE A. MISTAKE ON THIS ONE. HOW DO WE CORRECT IT? BECAUSE WE'RE BEHIND YOU ON HOW TO CORRECT IT. WHATEVER WE NEED TO DO. WE NEED. WE'RE BEHIND YOU ON THAT.
UM SO THAT JUST ASK FOR YOUR. YOUR YOUR GOOD SENSE, UH, AND YOUR LOVE FOR COMMUNITY AND HEARING US OUT. WE APPRECIATE THE TIME THAT Y'ALL HAVE GIVEN FOR US TO COME OUT AND SPEAK.
THANKS SO MUCH. THANK YOU. THAT IS ALL THE SPEAKERS. I SHOWED THERE ANY THAT I'M MISSING? DID YOU FILL OUT A CARD, SIR? NO, I DID. THERE WAS NO MORE CARDS OUT THERE, SIR. SO I DID NOT.
IS IT OKAY? UM. I'LL LET YOU SINCE THERE'S AN ACCORD, SO I APPRECIATE IT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH, UH, ONLY THING I WANT TO NAME AND ADDRESS IF YOU WOULD. I'M SORRY. THANK STEVE ANDELMAN 59 17 RIVER HIGHLANDS DRIVE, MCKINNEY. MAYOR. WE RECEIVED THIS EMAIL TODAY FROM CRAVE, AND I HAD WRITTEN THEM WITH MY CONCERNS ABOUT WHAT THEY WERE DOING. WHAT STRUCK ME VERY MUCH ABOUT THIS EMAIL AS TO WHAT'S BEEN SAID, HOW DISINGENUOUS THERE BEING. IN THAT EMAIL.
THEY RELATED TO A LOT OF THINGS THAT ONE WE KNOW AREN'T BEING DONE. SO I THINK WHAT THEY'RE DOING IS TRYING TO PUT A ROUND PEG INTO A SQUARE HOLE TRYING TO MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS. NOT WHAT THEY ORIGINALLY SAID AS AN EXAMPLE, AND I'M PARAPHRASING, THEY SAID THEY MET CLOSELY WITH THE CITY OF MCKINNEY. THEY'VE MET WITH DAVID CRAIG. THEY'VE MET WITH THE ARTISTRY AND WE KNOW THAT THE ARTISTRY IS TOTALLY AGAINST THIS. THAT'S NUMBER NUMBER TWO. THEY WANT TO NOW ADD AN INDOOR FACILITY AND OUTDOOR FACILITY. BUT WHAT ALSO STRUCK ME VERY UNUSUAL ABOUT THIS. EMAIL THEY SENT OUT. WAS THAT THEY SAID THAT THEIR MAJOR BUSINESS OR TRAFFIC WAS BETWEEN FIVE AND EIGHT AT NIGHT, BUT THEY'RE OPEN FOR BREAKFAST AND LUNCH. THAT'S A BIT STRANGE FOR ANY BUSINESS TO BASE, THEIR WHOLE PROFILE IN THEIR WHOLE BUSINESS STRATEGY. ON A CROWD THAT'S GOING TO COME BETWEEN FIVE AND EIGHT AT NIGHT. THAT'S VERY UNUSUAL. SECOND THING IS, THEY WENT ON TO TALK ABOUT HOW THEY ARE GIVING BACK TO THE COMMUNITY. THEY HAVE ONE LOCATION THAT LOCATION IN BOISE, IDAHO, IS IN A COMMERCIAL DISTRICT IF THEY THINK I BUY INTO THAT. THEN THEY GOT A BRIDGE. I CAN SELL THEM REAL QUICK. BUT THIS IS REALLY A PROBLEM BECAUSE WE ARE ALL AGAINST IT. THEY ALSO IN THIS EMAIL INDICATED. THAT THE MAJORITY OF PEOPLE THAT THEY HAD CALLS FROM OR HAD GOTTEN EMAILS FROM WERE IN FAVOUR OF THIS. AND THEY KIND OF DISMISSED IN THE EMAIL. THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE BEEN AGAINST IT AND I WOULD PROBABLY SAY NOT KNOWING WHAT THE NUMBERS ARE RIGHT NOW THAT THE MAJORITY OF
[00:25:03]
PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITY ARE AGAINST IT. THE LAST THING I WOULD SAY TO YOU, MAYOR ENTER THE COUNCIL. READ THE EMAIL. IF YOU'VE GOTTEN A COPY OF THAT NUMBER ONE NUMBER TWO. I UNDERSTAND YOU'RE TRYING TO BUILD MCKINNEY UP. I UNDERSTAND YOU MY OPINION YOU'VE DONE A GREAT JOB. BUT IN THIS CASE WHAT'S MORE IMPORTANT THIS ONE SINGLE BUSINESS OR A COMMUNITY THAT HAS ALREADY SAID TO YOU SEVERAL TIMES. THIS IS NOT RIGHT. I HOPE YOU LOOK AT THE RESIDENTS THAT ARE PAYING THEIR TAXES HERE VERSUS ONE SINGLE BUSINESS. THANK YOU. RIGHT? GOING TO TAKE THINGS OUT OF ORDER. UM AND I'M GOING TO JUMP TO 21056 SAY, CONSIDER DISCUSS PROVIDES STAFF DIRECTION IF ANY, REGARDING HEALTH SAFETY REGULATIONS INCLUDE EMISSION STANDARDS RELATED REGULATIONS FOR COMMERCIAL KITCHENS. THAT'S GOING TO BE MR QUINT. I BELIEVE, BUT BEFORE I'M GOING TO I'M GOING TO MAKE A FEW COMMENTS. CERTAINLY A LOT OF COMMENTS MADE HERE TODAY. I HAVE TO SAY UP UNTIL TONIGHT. UM. I'VE UH LET ME BACK UP. I APPRECIATE THE PASSION THAT EVERYONE IS HERE WITH. I GET IT. I'VE BEEN IN THIS VERY SITUATION WHEN I FELT A NEIGHBORHOOD THAT I LIVED IN, AND IT INVESTED IN WAS BEING COMPROMISED WITH SOMETHING THAT WAS. BEING PROPOSED TO CHANGE. GET IT AND I UP TILL TONIGHT. I HAVE, UM. NOT LOOKED AT ANYTHING OTHER THAN A VERY ORGANIZED, PASSIONATE GROUP OF PEOPLE, UM, PASSIONATE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT WERE THAT WERE THAT WAS SPEAKING TO THEIR CITY COUNCIL AND REPRESENTATIVES. AND PUTTING FORTH JUST MEASURED AND. AND THOUGHT, UM, YOU KNOW, THOUGHTFUL REASONS FOR THE CITY TO CONSIDER. UM. NOT OR CHANGING COURSE, IF YOU WILL ON WHERE WE'VE WE'VE GOTTEN SO FAR WITH THIS KITCHEN. BUT TONIGHT.YOU KNOW, DISCUSSION ABOUT SEVEN PEOPLE UP HERE THAT ELECTED OFFICIALS THAT WORKED REALLY HARD, REALLY ACTUALLY CARE AND TO HAVE. ACCUSATIONS MADE, UM, THAT. THAT WE MUST BE GETTING PAID OR SOMEONE'S GETTING PAID. I GOT TO TELL YOU, IT'S TREMENDOUSLY OFFENSIVE. TREMENDOUSLY OFFENSIVE. AND IN CASE YOU DID NOT REALIZE WHICH SEEMS PRETTY APPARENT TO ME, IT'S ON THE AGENDA. HERE. WE'RE HERE TO DISCUSS IT. SO THIS NOTION THAT WE'RE NOT LISTENING THAT WE'RE NOT DOING ANYTHING THAT WE'RE DISREGARDING OR IGNORING. FIND THAT PERPLEXING. WHY WE'RE HERE RIGHT NOW. I GOT TO TELL YOU UP UNTIL TONIGHT. I'VE HAD A LOT OF RESPECT FOR THIS GROUP AND UNFORTUNATELY FOR ME, THAT RESPECT IS TARNISHED. FROM WHAT I HEARD TODAY ABOUT MYSELF AND MY CO COUNSEL. IT'S COMPLETELY UNNECESSARY, COMPLETELY UNFOUNDED. AND QUITE ABSURD AND VERY OFFENSIVE. SO. THAT OF COURSE I WILL SET ASIDE IN MY DELIBERATION HERE, BUT I. DO HOPE THAT PEOPLE GO BACK TONIGHT AND CONSIDER SOME OF THINGS THAT WERE SAID AND, UH, AND JUST TAKE NOTE THAT IT'S THE WRONG WAY. SQUINT. THANK
[Consider, Discuss, Provide Staff Direction, If Any, Regarding Health/Safety Regulations, including Emissions Standards and Related Regulations, for Commercial Kitchens]
YOU, SIR. NO FORMAL PRESENTATION JUST HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS AGAIN FOR THE RECORD. MICHAEL QUINT, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF DEVELOPMENT SERVICES. WE'LL START THE DISCUSSION, ALTHOUGH, OF COURSE I'VE ALREADY STARTEDGT TO HAVE A DIFFERENT OPINION ON IT WAS SAID THAT STAFF MADE A MISTAKE. I DON'T BELIEVE STAFF MADE MISTAKE. I BELIEVE THAT WHAT STAFF DID ITS OPERATING WITHIN THE GUIDELINES THAT WE HAVE TODAY, AND WE CAN ALL DISCUSS WHETHER THOSE GUIDELINES NEED TO BE AMENDED. AND I THINK EVERYONE UP HERE EVERYONE OUT THERE. CERTAINLY WE'VE GIVEN PAUSE TO THINK ABOUT. WHAT MIGHT BE NEEDED MOVING FORWARD. UM. STAFF DIDN'T MAKE A MISTAKE. STAFF DID WHAT STAFF SHOULD DO. AND THERE IS NOTHING THAT THAT SAYS IN THE, UH IN OUR ZONING OR CODES THAT THAT, UH, LIMIT THE NUMBER OF KITCHENS OR OVENS OR ANYTHING IN ANY GIVEN RESTAURANT. CERTAINLY NOTHING THAT DEEMS IT HAS TO BE, UH, INSIDE DINING, OR WE WOULDN'T HAVE THE DOMINO'S PIZZAS OF THE WORLD. SO I DON'T BELIEVE THAT THEY MADE A MISTAKE AT ALL. AGAIN. WE'RE STILL HERE. OKAY, BECAUSE IT'S NOT A MATTER OF THEM MAKING A MISTAKE. IT'S A MATTER OF US TAKING THIS OPPORTUNITY FOR THIS VERY, VERY UNIQUE TO NEW CONCEPT FOR US TO REFLECT ON IT AND DETERMINED DO WE THINK. THERE MAY IT MAY TECHNICALLY MEET WHAT'S IN THE BOOKS TODAY? BUT SHOULD IT MEET, I THINK IS THE BIGGER QUESTION. AND. SO FOR ME SOME OF THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN SAID THAT. GIVE ME UH, PAWS ARE NUMBER ONE. THE VEHICLES. I'VE HEARD ALL KINDS OF NUMBERS, BUT 50 PLUS VEHICLES OVERNIGHT, RIGHT? OBVIOUSLY, UM. YOU KNOW, IS THAT CONSISTENT WITH THE[00:30:04]
RESTAURANT? WOULD THAT BE? MY EXPECTATION OF THE RESTAURANT WAS COMING IN? IS THERE 50 VEHICLES THAT ARE PARKED? CONSTANTLY. AND THE EMISSIONS. CERTAINLY I'M NO EXPERT. I CERTAINLY KNOW, THOUGH EVERY GROCERY STORE THAT WE HAVE HAS MORE THAN BY THE WAY I'VE HEARD 11 AND 12 KITCHENS. I BELIEVE IT'S ACTUALLY SEVEN. STILL MORE THAN ONE. I GET IT. EVERY. HOLD ON MY TURN TO TALK. EVERY GROCERY STORE WE HAVE HERE THAT PROVIDES FOOD THAT BY THE WAY, IT DOESN'T HAVE DINING IN. UM SERVICE HAS MULTIPLE KITCHEN SO UM. ALL SET THAT ASIDE.CERTAINLY IT IS SOMETHING TO POTENTIALLY LOOK AT AND CONSIDER. BUT THE VEHICLES IS A BIG THING. THE TRAFFIC IS A BIG THING. IT'S CERTAINLY DIFFERENT. IN A RESTAURANT THAT HAS TRAFFIC IN AND OUT BASED ON TABLE TURNOVER. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IS CONSTANT, YOU KNOW, POTENTIALLY EVERY MINUTE OF EVERY HOUR FOR THE TIME THEY'RE OPEN, SO THERE ARE DIFFERENCES AND THOSE HAVE BEEN MENTIONED AND BROUGHT UP. THOSE WERE VERY COMPELLING. UNLIKE THE ACCUSATION OF BRIBERY, THAT WAS NOT VERY COMPELLING, JUST F Y I FOR THE FUTURE. I'LL PAUSE FOR OTHER COMMENTS. MR QUINN? YES, SIR. I'M SORRY. IF I MIGHT, YEAH. WAS JUST ANSWERING HIS QUESTION, OKAY? SORRY WITH SOMEONE ELSE SPEAKING. NO, NO, NO. YOU ALL RIGHT? DID YOU GET THE EMAIL? GOTTEN A FEW OF THEM? YES, THE ONE THAT THESE FOLKS HAVE BEEN REFERRING TO FROM SHANNON. I HAVE SEEN IT. YES, SIR. I DIDN'T GET IT. WANTED TO MAKE THAT POINT. DID RIGHT TO SHANNON. PROBABLY WELL OVER A MONTH AGO. UM. RIGHT NOW. I BELIEVE WE'RE IN THE SITE PLANNING. PORTION OF THIS PROJECT. AND THAT SITE PLAN. I'M ASSUMING JUST GIVES AN OUTLINE OF A BUILDING MORE OR LESS WITH THE APPROPRIATE SETBACKS AND DOES NOT GO INTO THE DETAILS OF THE NUMBER OF KITCHENS AND MY CORRECT ON THAT. CORRECT HAVE WE RECEIVED AS THE CITY ANYTHING FROM CRAVE OR ANY ENTITY ASSOCIATED WITH THEM? ENGINEERS DESIGNERS OTHERWISE. THAT HAS INDICATED TO US THE EXACT NUMBER OF KITCHENS THEY ARE PROPOSING. I HAVE NOT PERSONALLY SEEING THAT I WILL TELL YOU IN MY CONVERSATIONS WITH MS ARNOLD ARE PLANNING DIRECTOR SHE HAS INDICATED THAT CRAVE HAS INDICATED TO HER THERE WILL BE SEVEN KITCHENS. BUT IN TERMS OF A FORMAL REQUIREMENT FOR THAT INFORMATION UP FRONT NO, WE DON'T HAVE THAT REQUIREMENT. I THINK THAT INFORMATION WAS SHARED AS IN THE CONTEXT OF THE ONGOING CONVERSATIONS, AND THEY'RE JUST CONVERSATIONS AT THIS POINT. SO AS WE SPEAK HERE TODAY. NO ONE CAN SAY THAT THERE IS GOING TO BE ONE KITCHEN OR THERE'S GOING TO BE 16 KITCHENS CORRECT. I CAN'T SPEAK TO WHAT CRAVE HAS SAID, BUT I WILL TELL YOU FROM A CITY STANDPOINT, WE'RE NOT LOOKING AT IT FROM THAT PERSPECTIVE, OKAY? AND I DON'T KNOW THAT YOU CAN SPEAK TO THE US BUT IN THE SIDE PLANNING PROCESS IS THE FIRE MARSHAL ENGAGED IN THAT PORTION OF THE PROCESS. TO DETERMINE IF THERE IS SUFFICIENT INGRESS AND EGRESS FOR THE FIRE DEPARTMENT TO MAINTAIN THIS TYPE OF STRUCTURE, SO THEY'RE LOOKING AT ONE ASPECT. OF IT. SO AT THE SITE PLANE LEVEL, WE'RE LOOKING FOR INGRESS AND EGRESS TO AND FROM THE SITE FOR EMERGENCY VEHICLES. THINGS OF THAT NATURE NOW TO AND FROM THE BUILDING THAT WILL COME LATER, WITH THE BUILDING CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS THAT ARE SUBMITTED AT A LATER PHASE IN THE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS. THAT'S WHEN THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WILL START LOOKING FOR THOSE INGRESS EGRESS, OCCUPANT LOADS THINGS OF THAT NATURE, AND IS IT THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT? WE'LL LOOK AT THE TRAFFIC. UH REQUIREMENTS OF THIS PARTICULAR FUNCTION, SO THAT IS BEING EVALUATED RIGHT NOW, AS WE'VE ALREADY MENTIONED MULTIPLE TIMES THIS AFTERNOON, THIS KIND OF THIS CONCEPT OF A GHOST KITCHEN IS STILL VERY MUCH NEW TO US. IT'S NEW IN THE INDUSTRY, SO WE HAVE AS PART OF THE SITE PLAN PROCESS, REACHED OUT TO CRAVE AND ASKED FOR A TRAFFIC IMPACT STATEMENT. BASED ON THEIR EXISTING FACILITIES. WHAT IS THE TRAFFIC LIKE? WHAT ARE THE TRIPS THAT GO IN AND OUT OF THE PROPERTY? WE HAVE YET TO RECEIVE THAT, BUT WILL DEFINITELY KEEP THAT UNDER ADVISEMENT. WHEN WE GET THAT INFORMATION IN TERMS OF FORMAL TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS.
THEY'RE ALREADY BEING REQUIRED THROUGH ENGINEERING DESIGN STANDARDS FOR TURN LANES, THINGS OF THAT NATURE, SO IN TERMS OF ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS THAT WE COULD PLACE ON THE DEVELOPMENT. THERE REALLY AREN'T MANY, SO THERE'S JUST NOT A LOT OF JUSTIFICATION

TO REQUIRE A FULL BLOWN TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS. WE ARE TRYING TO GET A TRAFFIC IMPACT STATEMENT TO GET A FUEL FOR WHAT TYPE OF TRAFFIC IS BEING GENERATED AT THESE TYPES OF FACILITIES, BUT IN TERMS OF AN ANALYSIS LEADING TO ADDITIONAL IMPROVEMENTS THERE'S NOT MUCH ELSE THE DEVELOPER CAN DO. UH AND AS FAR AS THIS ORGANIZATION ITSELF CRAVE, OR WHOEVER THEIR PARENT COMPANY AS THEY HAVE SOME OF THESE FACILITIES IN EXISTENCE RIGHT NOW, I HAVE HEARD CHICAGO. I DON'T KNOW THAT CRAVE HAS ANY IN CHICAGO. I DO KNOW THEY HAVE SOME IN THE IDAHO AREA. I HAVEN'T HEARD ABOUT CHICAGO, THOUGH. WELL, I'M JUST HEARD MENTION OF CHICAGO THROUGH THE CITIZENS. HAVE HEARD ABSOLUTELY NOTHING FROM CRAVE. WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYONE IN THE ROOM IS AWARE OF THAT? IT'S NOT THAT I HAVEN'T REACHED OUT TO THEM OR I'M NOT ANSWERING MY PHONE WHEN THEY CALL. AND I DID NOT GET A COPY OF THE EMAIL THAT HAS BEEN DISCUSSED IN A WOULD LIKE TO SEE THERE. UM END. POSITION THAT WE'RE IN RIGHT NOW. IF YOU WOULD DO YOU KNOW, AND I KNOW YOU'RE STANDING IN FOR JENNIFER ARNOLD FOR THE MOST PART TODAY, AND SOME OF THESE THINGS I MIGHT PUT YOU ON THE SPOT INADVERTENTLY. THAT'S NOT MY INTENTION. BUT THE DEFINITION THAT IS USED IN OUR CURRENT ZONING CODE AND I'VE SEEN DIFFERENT DEFINITIONS ON THE TERM KITCHEN. OR RESTAURANT OR CAFE. DO YOU KNOW WHEN THOSE ACTUALLY WENT INTO OUR CODE OF ORDINANCES? THE CURRENT DEFINITION OF, UH, RESTAURANT.AND IF YOU COULD HELP ME, I AM SEEN TWO OR THREE. I THINK ONE IS CONSIDERED AN INDOOR RESTAURANT. ONE IS CONSIDERED A TAKEOUT RESTAURANT, AND THERE MAY ALSO BE ONE. IF YOU HAVE OUTDOOR DINING, AND THAT'S WHERE I CAME UP WITH THREE THAT I HAVE SEEN AND WHAT I'M TRYING TO GET TO IS AND. THIS COUNCIL HAS SEEN THIS IN OTHER MATTERS BACK IN 1981. WHEN THE CODES WERE ORIGINALLY PUT INTO PLACE, MCKINNEY WAS PROBABLY A CITY OF LESS THAN 16,000 PEOPLE.
COMMERCIAL ALSO MEANT WALTER HAD FAMILY. AS I'M SURE BACK IN 1981, THE LEADERS OF MCKINNEY, WE'RE LOOKING FOR ANY KIND OF DEVELOPMENT THAT WOULD COME TO MCKINNEY. UM. NOT THAT THAT'S A BAD THING. BUT THAT DEFINITION CAME BACK TO HAUNT US. AND THIS COUNCIL ACTUALLY TOOK ACTION ON IT TO GET MALTA OUR FAMILY OUT OF THE COMMERCIAL DEFINITION. IN CERTAIN ZONING CASES BECAUSE THAT WAS A PROBLEM FOR US. SEE THIS HAPPENING AGAIN AND WE DEFINE KITCHEN. BACK WHEN. NO ONE HAD THOUGHT OF THE TERM OF GHOST KITCHEN OR THAT THERE WOULD BE SEVEN OR 16 OR HOWEVER MANY. ALLEGED RESTAURANTS HOUSED IN ONE LOCATION, SO IN LINE OF MY EXPLANATION COULD YOU GIVE THESE FOLKS AND US A BRIEF HISTORY OF THESE DEFINITIONS AND HOW THEY CAME INTO PLAY? AND ARE BEING USED TO TRY AND FACILITATE THIS PROJECT. I'LL DO MY VERY BEST.
I KNOW THAT WAS A LOT. YES, SIR. SO SPECIFICALLY, AS I UNDERSTAND THE ISSUE THE ISSUE AT HAND REVOLVES AROUND THE DEFINITION OF A RESTAURANT, LESS A KITCHEN MORE A RESTAURANT, AND SO THERE YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. THE CITY MCKINNEY DOES HAVE A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT DEFINITIONS REGARDING TO RESTAURANTS, SOME OF WHICH ARE RESTAURANT DYING IN. SOME ARE CARRY OUT. ONLY SOME ARE DRIVE THROUGH. BUT THE RESTAURANT DEFINITION SPECIFICALLY PERTAINING TO GHOST KITCHENS LESS CRAVE MORE GHOST KITCHENS. I'D LIKE TO KIND OF BACK OUT AND TALK HOLISTICALLY. BECAUSE THIS CONVERSATION DOES HAVE IMPLICATIONS FOR THE CITY AS A WHOLE. SO THE DEFINITION IN OUR CURRENT ORDINANCE AND I'VE BEEN HERE SINCE 2000 AND SIX IN THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT SINCE 2000 AND SIX AND I DON'T RECALL EVER MODIFYING THE DEFINITION OF RESTAURANT CARRY OUT, WHICH IS THE DEFINITION I'M ABOUT TO READ TO YOU. I KNOW THAT THE FIRST CITY MCKINNEY'S ORDINANCE WAS ADOPTED IN 1969. I APOLOGIZE. I'VE NOT DONE THE RESEARCH TO GO BACK AND SEE IF THIS THAT DEFINITION GOES BACK THAT FAR, BUT I THINK IT'S SAFE TO SAY THAT IT'S BEEN HERE FOR AT LEAST. SINCE I JOINED THE
[00:40:02]
CITY IN 2000 AND SIX BUT THAT DEFINITION AS IT CURRENTLY READS TODAY IS AN ESTABLISHMENT WHERE FOOD IS PREPARED FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC, BUT WHERE THERE ARE NO DESIGNATED AREAS FOR DINING ON THE PREMISES, INDOOR OR OUTDOOR. SO THAT IS THE DEFINITION THAT IS BEING APPLIED TO WHAT? WE'RE ALL REFERENCING AS GHOST KITCHENS. MY UNDERSTANDING, AT LEAST IN MY EXPERIENCE, THAT DEFINITION HAS BEEN IN PLACE UNTOUCHED. SINCE 2000 AND SIX POSSIBLY PRIOR TO THAT. FAR BACK IN 1969 POSSIBLE COULD BE I'VE NOT LOOKED THAT FAR BACK. I THOUGHT OUR ZONING CODES WERE ADOPTED IN 81 IS WIDE SO THAT. YES, SIR. SO LET ME SPEAK TO THAT. IF I MIGHT, SO OUR FIRST ZONING ORDINANCE WAS ADOPTED IN 1969. WHAT WE DID IN 1982 WAS RICK CODIFICATION. WE BASICALLY CHANGE THE STRUCTURE. OF OUR CODES. AND SO WHEN YOU LOOK ONLINE, ATM UNICODE, YOU'LL SEE 1982. THAT'S WHAT WE'RE REFERENCING IS JUST THE RICK CODIFICATION OF A LOT OF THE CODES WE HAD PRIOR TO 1982. SO IT WASN'T THE FIRST ZONING ORDINANCE WE EVER HAD. WAS BACK IN THE LATE SIXTIES. OKAY? YEAH, YEAH. WHAT I HAVE HEARD.TODAY AND OTHERWISE IS THAT. GRAVE IS NOW CHANGING WHAT THEY PLAN TO DO, OR. STATING NOW THAT THEY WERE GOING TO HAVE SOME KIND OF DYNAMIC OUTSIDE DINING. DOES THAT CHANGE THE DEFINITION THAT WE APPLY IN ANALYZING THIS FACILITY? IT COULD AGAIN DEPENDING ON THE SCOPE AND, UH, DETAILS OF THAT CHANGE, IT COULD HAVE IMPLICATIONS. BUT I'LL TELL YOU AT THIS POINT, AND I HAVE THE SUBMITTAL THAT THEY GAVE TO US ON JUNE 2ND. IT DOES NOT REFERENCE ANY. OF THOSE ASPECTS THAT HAVE BEEN MENTIONED THIS AFTERNOON. NOW AGAIN, NOT SAYING ANYBODY'S ACCURATE, ACCURATE OR INACCURATE. I'M JUST SAYING THAT THAT INFORMATION IS NOT BEING COMMUTED. COMMUNICATED TO STAFF AT THIS POINT BEFORE I COMMIT TO WHAT THOSE IMPLICATIONS WOULD BE, I WOULD WANT TO LAY EYES ON IT, SO I DON'T. FOR THE BENEFIT OF EVERYBODY IN THE ROOM, I THINK GOING DOWN THE HYPOTHETICAL OF WHAT COULD HAPPEN IF THOSE CHANGES WERE MADE. I WOULD NOT BE DOING ANYONE ANY SERVICE WITHOUT HAVING LAID EYES ON THE EXTENT OF THOSE CHANGES. APPRECIATE THAT. IS THERE ANY REQUIREMENT ON THE OWNER DEVELOPER TO GIVE YOU. A SPECIFIC DEFINITION. AS FAR AS KITCHENS. GO IN THIS INSTANCE. SO AT THE SIGHT LINE LEVEL DETAIL. WE'RE NOT LOOKING AT THE NUMBER OF KITCHENS. ALL WE'RE LOOKING FOR IS SQUARE FOOTAGE OF BUILDING SQUARE FOOTAGE OF USE, WHETHER THAT USE B INDOOR DINING OR BE INDOOR KITCHEN OR BE FOOD PREP AREA. THOSE ARE THE THINGS THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT AT THIS POINT. WE'RE NOT LOOKING SO FOR EXAMPLE, IF THEY SAY OF THAT 18,000 SQUARE FOOT BUILDING 3000 IS FOR INDOOR DINING AND THE OTHER 15. WHATEVER MATH THAT WORKS OUT TO THE LARGER PORTION IS FOR KITCHEN AREA. WE WOULD NOT GO BACK TO THE APPLICANT AND SAY OKAY, YOU'VE GOT 15,000 SQUARE FOOT OF KITCHEN. HOW MANY KITCHENS ARE IN THERE? HOW MANY DIFFERENT TYPES OF FOOD? ARE YOU GOING TO BE PREPARING? HOW MANY DIFFERENT CHEFS ARE YOU GOING TO HAVE? THAT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT WE WOULD DO. WE WOULD LOOK AT IT AS YOU HAVE A RESTAURANT OF FIT. 18,000 SQUARE FOOT. YOU'VE GOT A DINING AREA OF 3000, AND YOU'VE GOT A KITCHEN OF 15,000. NOW IT'S NOT TO SAY THAT WHEN YOU GET INTO THE BUILDING PLANS OR THE. THE FIRE PLANS THAT THEY MIGHT LOOK AT THOSE THINGS IN MORE DETAIL. I STILL DON'T THINK THEY'RE GOING TO GET TO THE LEVEL OF SPECIFICITY. THAT IS. HOW MANY CHEFS ARE YOU GOING TO HAVE? HOW MANY DIFFERENT TYPES OF FOOD THEY'RE GOING TO LOOK AT SQUARE FOOTAGE? AND WHAT IS THE USE? OH, IT'S A KITCHEN. THEY'RE DOING COMMERCIAL FOOD PREP. OKAY. THESE ARE THE CODES THAT APPLY, BUT THAT AT A SITE PLAN LEVEL DETAIL. WE'RE NOT GETTING INTO A NUMBER OF KITCHENS, NUMBER OF CHEFS, ANY OF THAT STUFF. IS THERE ANYTHING THAT REQUIRES THEM TO PICK ONE OF OUR THREE DEFINITIONS THAT YOU AND I JUST DISCUSSED? YES SO THE SIMPLE ANSWER IS THEY DON'T PICK IT DEFINITION. SO THE WAY THAT THE.
CLASSIFICATION PROCESS WORKS FOR LACK OF A BETTER TERM IS DEVELOPER WILL COME TO THE CITY WITH A PROPOSED USE. NINE TIMES OUT OF 10. THOSE DEVELOPERS ARE NOT LOOKING AT THE CITY ZONING ORDINANCE FOR LAND USE CLASSIFICATION. IT'S OUR OBLIGATION TO FIND OUT WHAT THEY ARE SO IN THIS CASE. CRAVE CAME TO THE CITY MCKENNEY AND SAID, HEY, WE'VE GOT THIS
[00:45:01]
DELIVERY ONLY FOOD. FOOD KITCHEN RESTAURANT TYPE SCENARIO. THIS IS WHAT WE WANT TO DO. SO THEY SUBMIT THAT TO THE CITY STAFF, CITY STAFF GOES THROUGH THE ZONING ORDINANCE AND SAYS, OKAY, THIS IS OUR UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT THE APPLICANT WANTS TO DO. WHAT DEFINITION DOESN'T MEET WITHIN, SO WE LOOK THROUGH ALL THE RESTAURANT DEFINITIONS. WE SETTLED ON. CARRY OUT ONLY RESTAURANT. HOWEVER IF WE COULD NOT FIND A DEFINITION THAT THIS PROPOSED USE FIT WITHIN. WE COULD GO THROUGH THE NEW AND UNLISTED USE PROCESS, WHICH BASICALLY REQUIRES US TO MAKE A PRESENTATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION AND CITY COUNCIL, ULTIMATELY SAYING, HEY, OUR ZONING ORDINANCE DOESN'T INCLUDE THIS TYPE OF USE. WE THINK IT SHOULD BE ALLOWED AND THIS DISTRICT WITH THESE REGULATIONS, POTENTIALLY THESE PARKING. STANDARDS P N Z. WHAT DO YOU THINK? COUNCIL? WHAT DO YOU THINK? BUT IN THIS CASE WE DIDN'T GO THROUGH THAT NEW AND UNLISTED USE BECAUSE WHAT THE APPLICANT WAS DESCRIBING FIT WITHIN THE DEFINITION OF CARRY OUT ONLY RESTAURANT. HYPOTHETICALLY ON. AT THE POINT WE ARE IN THIS PROCEDURE, MY UNDERSTANDING THEY'VE SUBMITTED TO SIDE PLAYING. YES SIR. AND MY UNDERSTANDING IS ONCE YOU HAVE A PROPERTY, RIGHT? I'VE ZONING UNDER A CERTAIN CLASSIFICATION. WE CANNOT TAKE THAT AWAY FROM A PERSON BECAUSE THEN BECOMES A PROPERTY TAKING BY THE GOVERNMENT. CORRECT I'LL DEFER TO THE ATTORNEYS ON THE SPECIFICS, BUT I WILL TELL YOU WE RUN INTO SOME LEGAL CHALLENGES VERY QUICKLY IF WE DECIDE TO DO THAT, CORRECT, AND AT THIS STAGE OF THE PROCESS THAT WE'RE IN NOW. AND WE DETERMINED IT WAS AN UNDEFINED YOUTH. COULD WE GO BACK? AND SAY, WAIT A MINUTE. THIS IS AN UNDEFINED USE. BUT. THE STATUTE.WE'RE TALKING ABOUT VESTED RIGHTS STATUE, LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODES CHAPTER 2 45. DID YOU REPEAT THAT AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT CO CHAPTER 2 45, WHICH IS COMMONLY CALLED THE VESTED RIGHTS STATUTE. AND IT'S THERE'S DEFINITIONS THERE ABOUT THE FIRST IN A SERIES OF PERMITS SOFT. AND IN THIS CASE, A PERMIT HAS BEEN SOUGHT BY THIS APPLICANT. AND BY THE CODE BY THE STATE LAW, WHICH IS TALKING ABOUT. ONCE THAT OCCURS AND SATISFIED. IT'S THE FIRST IN A SERIES OF PERMITS THE LAWS IN PLACE AT THAT TIME ARE APPLICABLE. AND IF THE PUBLIC ENTITY CHOOSES TO CHANGE THOSE LAWS, IT WILL NOT AFFECT. LAWS UNDER WHICH THIS APPLICATION WOULD BE CHARGED. EXPOSE FACTOR CORRECT. AND SO, AS I EXPLAINED ONE DAY TO SOME OF THE RESIDENTS THAT. THOSE APPLY. BESTING APPLIES TO LAND USE REGULATIONS. IT'S MOST OF THE ISSUES THAT MR QUINN TALKED ABOUT RELATING TO THE SITE PLAN, BUT IT DOESN'T APPLY TO HEALTH SAFETY REGULATIONS SUCH AS AS WE MENTIONED IN THE ITEM. ITEMS AFFECTING. YOU KNOW, EMISSIONS, LIGHT NOISE, THINGS LIKE THAT. THAT CAN BE. REVISED OR CHANGED, IT COULD BE APPLIED. TWO. BUSINESSES THAT WERE APPROVED PRIOR. AND THAT'S A VERY KEY POINT. BECAUSE IF THIS COUNCIL. WHERE TO GO INTO THAT, UH. AREA OR TO TRY TO AMEND ORDINANCES RELATING TO EMISSIONS STANDARDS THOSE WOULD APPLY WOULD HAVE TO BE APPLIED UNIFORMLY TO OTHER BUSINESSES IN THE CITY. RETROACTIVELY. RIGHT. IN OTHER WORDS, IF THERE WAS A STANDARD FOR LIGHT OF THIS MANY LUMENS. AND IT WAS DETERMINED THAT IN COMMERCIAL SEE TO THAT LUMENS WOULD HAVE NEEDS TO BE THIS. ALL BUSINESSES WOULD HAVE TO. TYPICALLY WE HAVE A GRACE PERIOD THAT WE ALLOW BUSINESSES TO COMPLY, BUT YOU WOULD HAVE TO GIVE THOSE BUSINESSES RIGHT TO DO THE OPPORTUNITY. THEN EVERYONE WOULD BE SUBJECT TO THAT LAW. SO. IF THIS COUNCIL WORD TO DECIDE IN THE VERY NEAR FUTURE. THE KITCHEN MEANS. UP TO THREE STOVES AND NOTHING MORE. WE WOULD HAVE TO GO BACK AND APPLY THAT RETROACTIVELY NOT ONLY TO CRAVE, BUT EVERYONE WHO OPERATES A RESTAURANT IN MCKINNEY. NO, NO, I DON'T THINK A KITCHEN IS A REGULATION THAT IS COVERED BY THAT SECTION OF THE VESTED RIGHTS STATUTE. KITCHEN IS NOT A REGULATION RELATING TO HEALTH AND SAFETY AND I'VE USED KITCHEN. I THINK I'M USING KITCHEN AND
[00:50:04]
RESTAURANT INTERCHANGEABLY, AND I APOLOGIZE FOR THAT. THAT'S OKAY. BUT IF YOU. SAID THAT THE AMOUNT OF CARBON DIOXIDE THAT COMES OUT OF A GIVEN BUSINESS HAS TO BE X. THEN. AND IF A CHANGE THEN THAT WOULD BE APPLICABLE TO OTHER BUSINESSES AS WELL IN THE SAME PERSON.COMMERCIAL BUSINESS, SO IF IT APPLIED TO CRAVE IT WOULD APPLY TO MARKET STREET BECAUSE THEY'RE COOKING FOOD COMMERCIALLY. YES, SIR. SO IT'S GOING TO BE UNIFORM ACROSS THE BOARD. YES, SIR. AND AT THE PLACE WE ARE IN THIS PROCESS. THAT SHIP HAS SAILED. IS THAT FAIR TO STAY? THE LAND USED APPLICATION FOR PURPOSES OF VESTED RIGHTS. IN MY OPINION, AND I'VE ALREADY ADVISED STAFF AND COUNCIL THAT'S ALREADY IN PROCESS. IT IS AN APPLICATION THAT SHOULD BE THE LAW SHOULD APPLY THAT ARE IN THE BOOKS TODAY. AND WHERE WE ARE RIGHT NOW. THIS HAS BEEN APPROVED BY PLANNING AND ZONING PLANNING AND ZONING. IT'S BEEN PRESENTED A REASON. AND THAT REASON WAS BASED ON SOME CHANGES TO THE OTHER. MICHAEL YOU BOTH STAY THERE, BUT IT'S HELPFUL. PHOTOGRAPHY DIDN'T THINK LAWYERS LIKE TO TALK TO LAWYERS. YEAH I LIKE YOU. THOUGH. WE MAY BE THE ONLY TO GET THIS, BUT SO I WOULD LIKE TO ADDRESS THAT QUESTION. SO WHAT THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION CONSIDERED WAS A PENDING REZONING REQUEST AT THE TIME. ARE ACTUALLY CURRENTLY THE ZONING ON THE PROPERTY REQUIRES A TWO STORY BUILDING. THE APPLICANT WAS LOOKING TO REDUCE THAT REQUIREMENT. DOWN TO ONE STORY. OBVIOUSLY THERE WAS RESIDENT OPPOSITION. THE APPLICANT WITHDREW THAT ZONING REQUEST PROCEEDED TO SUBMIT THEIR SITE PLAN ON JUNE 2ND OF THIS YEAR. TO SHOW A TWO STORY CRAVE RESTAURANT BUILDING. THIS IS THEIR OPERATING UNDER THE EXISTING ZONING. CORRECT RIGHT NOW. GOOD QUESTION ALONG THE LINES, AND THEY JUST CAME IN AND SAID WE WANT TO WE HAVE A TWO STORY BUILDING. THIS IS WHAT WE WANT TO DO. THEY COULD HAVE JUST BUILT IT. THEY WOULD HAVE NEVER HAD TO COME TO ASK THE NEIGHBORHOOD WOULDN'T HAVE THE KNOWN THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN THEY WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED. THEY WOULD HAVE JUST BUILT THIS THING AND EVERYBODY WOULD HAVE JUST HAD TO LIVE WITH THE FACT THE FACT THAT THEY CAME IN AND SAID WE WANT TO CHANGE THIS LITTLE BIT IS HOW COME EVERYBODY GOT NOTIFIED, SO THAT'S THAT'S THE THING THAT EVERYBODY HAS TO REMEMBER IS THEY ALWAYS HAVE OPPORTUNITY TO COME IN AND BUILD THIS THING.
AND PUT THEIR KITCHENS YOU KNOW, IN THERE WITH NO. NO APPROVAL FROM ANYBODY OTHER THAN JUST THE SITE PLANT. CORRECT CORRECT OTHER THAN CITY STAFF. IT IS CORRECT. SO THEY WERE A RESTAURANT. THEY'RE NOT ARRESTED. OKAY, WELL, THEN. AGAIN JUST MICHAEL, WOULD YOU PLEASE READ THAT DEFINITION? ONE MORE TIME? ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN. ONE SECOND. SO THE DEFINITION OF RESTAURANT OR CAFETERIA CARRY OUT ONLY, UM PER THE CITY'S CURRENT ZONING ORDINANCE IS AN ESTABLISHMENT WHERE FOOD IS PREPARED FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC. WHERE THERE ARE NO DESIGNATED AREAS FOR DINING ON THE PREMISES, INDOOR OR OUTDOOR. SO TAKE PAST SET PASSION ASIDE FOR A MINUTE, AND I'M NOT TAKING AWAY THE ONLY ARGUMENT SO DON'T GET HUNG UP ON THIS. IT'S NOT THE ONLY DISCUSSION POINT. WHAT HE JUST READ. I THINK EVERYONE TAKES PASSION OUT OF IT WOULD ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT THEY ARE EXACTLY WHAT THEY'RE DOING. NOW WE CAN HAVE A DIFFERENT DISCUSSION AND WE ARE HAVING THAT DISCUSSION RIGHT NOW ABOUT OTHER ASPECTS OF IT. THAT MIGHT BE OUTSIDE OR NOT EVEN OUTSIDE. IT'S NOT OUTSIDE THE DEFINITION, THEY MEET THAT DEFINITION THAT'S DONE. TELL EVERYONE HERE THEY MEET THAT DEFINITION. SO DISCUSSION WE'RE NOW HAVING IS ON THE OTHER ISSUES. CONCERNS POTENTIALLY TRAFFIC, UM, DELIVERY VEHICLES. BUT AGAIN, I WANT TO EMPHASIZE EVERYONE HEARD THAT DEFINITION. AND THERE'S NOBODY HERE THAT CAN SAY THAT'S NOT THAT THEY DON'T MEET THAT DEFINITION. YOU MIGHT SAY THAT THEY HAVE THINGS. IN ADDITION, THAT ARE THAT ARE THAT ARE OFFENSIVE TO THE PEOPLE IN THIS ROOM, AND I GET THAT. I'M SORRY, WE'RE NOT.
IT'S NOT THAT THIS KIND OF CONVERSATION RIGHT NOW. CHARLIE. DID YOU HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? I DID. OKAY I DID. AND MISS QUINN, I'M GONNA COUNT AND GIVE YOU A WIDE OPEN QUESTION RIGHT HERE, BUT. IF THEY'VE ALREADY EATEN IF THEY'RE OPERATING UNDER EXISTING ZONING THEY WERE DOING WHAT CAN BE BUILT THERE. IF THIS PROJECT WE'RE NOT GOING TO GO FORWARD, IT WOULD EITHER HAVE TO BE VOLUNTARILY BY THE DEVELOPER. OR. THERE. THEY STILL HAVE TO GO THROUGH OUR DEVELOPMENT PROCESS, AND THERE ARE CERTAIN REGULATIONS THAT THEY HAVE TO MEET ALONG THE WAY, WOULD YOU MIND FOR THE BENEFIT OF EVERYBODY HERE
[00:55:01]
EXPLAINING THAT PROCEDURE? WHAT AND I'M NOT ASKING YOU TO GIVE ME EVERY DETAIL OF EVERY REGULATION, BUT WHAT ALL CODES ARE INVOLVED IN THAT. AND WHAT ALL THEY HAVE TO MEET IN ORDER TO GET THIS THING FROM WHERE WE ARE NOW TO A FINISHED PRODUCT IF IT GETS THERE. YOU'RE REALLY GOING TO TEST MY KNOWLEDGE OF THE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS IN THE CITY. NO KIDDING. I'M REALLY TRYING TO BE EDUCATIONAL FOR EVERYBODY IN THE ROOM AND NOT TRYING TO PUT YOU ON THE SPOT AND ONE I WANT TO THANK YOU. FIRST STEPPING IN AND PINCH HITTING AT THE LAST MINUTE. WE ALL KNOW I CAN'T DO AS GOOD A JOB AS JENNIFER, BUT I WILL DEFINITELY TRY. SO TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION, SIR. COUPLE OF THINGS, SO RIGHT NOW WE'RE IN THE SITE PLAN PROCESS, AND THAT IS THE FIRST PROCESS IN THE OVERALL DEVELOPMENT PROCESS. SO WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT IS CIVIL PLANS. SO ONCE WE HAVEN'T APPROVED SITE PLAN, YOU'LL HAVE FULL BLOWN CIVIL PLANS. AND WHEN I SAY CIVIL, I MEAN CIVIL ENGINEERING, SO WE HAVE OUR ENGINEERING DESIGN MANUAL THAT ADDRESSES. EVERYTHING FROM WATER LINES. WASTEWATER LINES STORMS, WHO ARE ROAD CONSTRUCTION, FIRE LINE CONSTRUCTION. ALL OF THAT STUFF IS COVERED BY OUR ENGINEERING DESIGN MANUAL SO. ONCE THE SITE PLAN IS APPROVED THE CRAVE FOLKS WILL HAVE TO SUBMIT THEIR CIVIL PLANS, AND THAT'S WHERE ALL THE WHAT I CALL SUB SERVICE OR HORIZONTAL INFRASTRUCTURE WILL BE. EVALUATED AND APPROVED IN CONFORMANCE WITH THE CITY'S ENGINEERING DESIGN MANUAL. FROM THERE, YOU MOVE FORWARD TO THE VERTICAL CONSTRUCTION. THAT'S WHERE YOU'RE GOING TO BE SUBMITTING CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS FOR COMPLIANCE WITH ALL WHAT WE CALLED MODEL CODES.THOSE ARE THE BUILDING CODES. INTERNATIONAL FIRE CODE, THE PLUMBING CODE MECHANICAL ELECTRICAL. THESE ARE ALL THE CODES WERE APPLYING AT THAT POINT. YES SIR. JUST A THOUGHT.
WE DON'T HAVE. ANY PRECEDENT FOR THIS NUMBER OF KITCHENS. LET'S SAY IT SEVEN FOR THE PURPOSES OF MY QUESTION, BUT DO WE HAVE ANY OTHER FACILITIES AND MCKINNEY THAT CURRENTLY RUNS? SEVEN KITCHENS ARE MORE UNDER ONE ROOF TO MY KNOWLEDGE. NO BUT I HAVE TO HAVE TWO CAVEAT THAT ANSWER WITH THE NUMBER OF KITCHENS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT THE CITY OF MCKINNEY WILL EVER EVALUATE AGAIN. REMEMBER AT THE PLANNING STAGE, WE'RE LOOKING AT LAND USE, NOT THE NUMBER OF KITCHENS IN A FACILITY. EVEN WHEN WE GET TO THE BUILDING AND FIRE CODES, WE'RE LOOKING AT SQUARE FOOTAGE OF A USE. OH YOU'VE GOT A KITCHEN. HOW BIG IS YOUR KITCHEN THAT'S GOING TO DICTATE INGRESS. INGRESS FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEMS, BUT NEVER ARE WE GOING TO SAY HOW MANY KITCHENS HOW MANY DIFFERENT DISTINCT TYPES OF FOOD? HOW MANY DIFFERENT CHEFS DO YOU HAVE? SO THE CITY MCKINNEY TYPICALLY. THAT THAT I KNOW OF WERE NEVER GOING TO ASK. HOW MANY KITCHENS ARE YOU OPERATING OUT OF THIS RESTAURANT? I KNOW FOR THE I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT THE CITY OF MCKINNEY HAS OTHER GHOST KITCHENS. IN ITS CURRENT CITY LIMITS, ARE THEY. SEVEN KITCHENS. NO I DON'T KNOW THE ANSWER TO THAT, NOR THEY REQUIRED TO REGISTER THAT INFORMATION WITH US. BUT DOES THAT ANSWER YOUR QUESTION? YES BECAUSE I'M TRYING TO THINK IT THROUGH FROM THE APPLICATION OF THE PLUMBING CODE AND THE FIRE CODE ARE TWO THINGS THAT CAME TO MIND. ABSOLUTELY SO PLUMBING CODE. WE'RE LOOKING AT THE NUMBER OF FIXTURES PLAIN AND SIMPLE. HOW MANY PEOPLE PUT THAI FOOD IN THOSE PICTURES VERSUS PIZZA VERSUS BURGERS? RELEVANT TO US. WE'RE LOOKING AT THE NUMBER OF PICTURES AGAIN IN TERMS OF FIRE SUPPRESSION. WE'RE LOOKING AT SQUARE FOOTAGE OF THE BUILDING THE OCCUPANT LOAD OF THE BUILDING THE OCCUPANCY TYPE OF THE BUILDING. THAT IS GOING TO DICTATE YOUR FIRE SUPPRESSION, NOT HOW MANY STOVES DO WE HAVE SURE YOU HAVE VENT HOODS THAT HAD THE COMMERCIAL EXTINGUISHERS ON THEM, AND THOSE PROVISIONS WILL APPLY THROUGH THE FIRE CODE.
BUT IN TERMS OF HOW YOU'VE GOT. THIS TYPE OF FOOD BEING PREPARED HERE OR THIS? IT'S REALLY NOT GERMANE TO WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT IT AND SHOULDN'T SIGNIFICANTLY IMPACT THE WAY WE APPLY. OUR ARE VARIOUS CODES AND ORDINANCES TO THESE TYPES OF USES. FOR MY IDENTIFICATION. ELIZABETH WHO WENT TO COLLEGE BEFORE THERE WAS THE INTERNET AND WE USED A THING CALLED BOOKS. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THOSE ARE. SO, YEAH. UM AND I RECALL HAVING A COPY OF THE BUILDING CODE AND THE OFFICE I WORKED IN AT THE TIME, AND IT WAS ABOUT THAT THICK. IN THE EARLY 19 EIGHTIES. CAN YOU GIVE ME AND MAKE SURE EVERYBODY CAN SEE THAT IF WE TOOK IT FROM THE INTERNET AND PUT IT TO A BOOK FOR HIM? HOW THICK WOULD THIS BUILDING CODE? NOW BE? YOU'RE YOU'RE ASSUMING IT'S JUST ONE CODE. I WILL TELL YOU. WE HAVE ALL OF THEM. WE CALL THEM MODEL CODES. LET ME GO WITH PLUMBING CODE FOR SO THE PLUMBING CODE IS GOING TO YEAH, GOING TO BE ABOUT THAT BIG, OKAY AND FIRE CODE. SAME THING. THEY'RE ALL ABOUT THAT BIG, BUT
[01:00:05]
I WILL TELL YOU THIS WHEN YOU STACK UP ALL THE CODES, ELECTRICAL, PLUMBING, MECHANICAL, ALL OF THEM FIRE. YOU'VE GOT A STACK OF BOOKS ABOUT THAT BIG. YEAH. AND FAIR STATEMENT THAT NO ONE ON THIS STAFF HAS THOSE BABIES MEMORIZED. TRY I DON'T THINK IT'S POSSIBLE OKAY, AND SO WE DON'T KNOW WHAT ASPECTS OF. CODES THIS THICK ARE GOING TO COME INTO PLAY AS THIS CONTINUES TO DEVELOP. I'M SURE SOMEBODY DOES. I'M SURE SOMEBODY ACROSS THE STREET COULD GIVE YOU A GENERAL IDEA, BUT IN TERMS OF ME STANDING HERE, SUFFICE IT TO SAY ALL OF THEM WILL APPLY. IT'S JUST A MATTER OF WHICH, TO WHAT EXTENT WILL THEY APPLY? BECAUSE TOO MAY THIS IS A FAIRLY NOVEL CONCEPT IN BUILDINGS, AND IT'S CERTAINLY NOT SOMETHING THAT WAS CONTEMPLATED BY OUR CURRENT CODE. AND SO EVERYONE KNOWS WE'RE REVAMPING THOSE CODES RIGHT NOW, AND IT'S PROBABLY WHAT 34 YEAR PROCESS OF REVAMPING THOSE CODES. HOWEVER. BACK TO MR HAUSER'S POINT. EVEN THOUGH WE REVAMPED THOSE CODES, THEY DO NOT HAVE A RETROACTIVE AFFAIR TO WHERE WE CAN GO BACK AND APPLY THOSE SOMEONE WHO IS ALREADY IN THE ZONING. AND BUILDING APPROVAL PROCESS UNLESS IT'S A HEALTH SAFETY WELFARE AT WHICH POINT WE CAN. OTHERWISE YOU'RE CORRECT. AND HEALTH, SAFETY AND WELFARE GOING TO FALL UNDER THE COACH. EVEN THERE, BUT A LITTLE BIT MORE WAS PHILLIPS. OKAY? IT TALKS ABOUT THE UNIFORM CODES THAT YOU JUST WENT THROUGH WITH MR QUIT, AND IT TALKS ABOUT CHANGES TO THE UNIFORM CODES OR LOCAL AMENDMENTS TO THOSE CODES ENACTED SOLELY TO ADDRESS IMMINENT THREATS OR DESTRUCTION OF PROPERTY OR INJURY TO PERSONS. SO YOU'RE BASICALLY BE AMENDING A UNIFORM CODE TO ADD SOME. CAVEAT OR PROVISION THAT WOULD ADDRESS UH, HARM LIKE WE MENTIONED WITH. MISSIONS, FOR INSTANCE, OR LIGHT OR THINGS LIKE. AND AS FARM AS EMISSIONS ARE CONCERNED. I DON'T KNOW THAT THAT'S GONNA KNIT YOU ANYTHING. WELL, YOU KNOW, WE DON'T FIRST OF ALL, MR. QUINT DOESN'T KNOW HOW MANY KITCHENS WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THEIR DAMPERS ARE, AND THEY'RE CLEANERS. I MEAN, THEY MAYBE SOME OF THE FINEST YOU KNOW? EMISSION CONTROL. THERE ARE SO. THE STANDARD IS ALREADY IN OUR CODE. CURRENTLY THEY MAY MEET IT THE DAY THEY OPENED OR THEY MAY NOT. AND AGAIN. ONCE THEY GET A BUILDING PERMIT. WE HAVE TO BUILD THEIR BUILDING ACCORDING TO ALL THESE CODES, AND THEY'LL HAVE TO CONTINUE TO OPERATE UNDER ALL THESE CODES. AS YOU KNOW, WE OFTEN GET COMPLAINTS. AND WE ADDRESS THOSE REGARDING CODE ENFORCEMENT. ONE OF THE TWO OF YOU TELL ME. WHEN WILL TRAFFIC BEING CONSIDERATION? IN THIS PROCEDURE, SO WILL IT BE A CONSIDERATION SO THE TRAFFIC IS A CONSIDERATION AT THE SITE PLAN, LEVEL OR SITE PLAN STAGE, BUT I WILL. I WILL OFFER A CAVEAT. WE CANNOT DENY LAND USE BECAUSE OF TRAFFIC. WE CAN ONLY APPLY ADDITIONAL DEVELOPMENT REQUIREMENTS. FOR EXAMPLE, IF WE DIDN'T ALREADY REQUIRED TURN LANES OR DECELERATION LANES WE COULD SAY, HEY, YOU'RE GOING TO PROVIDE THIS USE IS GOING TO GENERATE A WHOLE BUNCH OF TRAFFIC YOU NEED TO BUILD AND DEDICATE RIGHT OF WAY FOR A DECELERATION LANE THAT THE SAFETY ASPECT OF THAT IS GET CARS THAT ARE SLOWING DOWN TO GET OFF THE ROAD. GO INTO THIS FACILITY, GET THEM OUT OF THE TRAVEL LANES SO THAT THEY CAN SLOW DOWN SAFELY AND NOT BACK UP TRAFFIC. THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE COULD REQUIRE. AFTER EVALUATING THE TRAFFIC, THE CHALLENGES THE CITY OF MCKINNEY'S CODES DESIGN ENGINEERING DESIGN MANUAL ALREADY REQUIRES THAT UPFRONT. UM SO IN TERMS OF ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS, IT'S IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER WHAT I SAID. WE CANNOT DENY A LAND USE BASED ON TRAFFIC IF THE USE IS ENTITLED, THE USE IS ALLOWED. WE NOW JUST HAVE TO GOVERN THE INTENSITY AND THE IMPACTS OF THAT DEVELOPMENT SO WE CAN REQUIRE TURN LANES. BUT THOSE TURN LANES ARE ALREADY REQUIRED. AND SO WE CAN REQUIRE ADDITIONAL RIGHT. AVOID DEDICATION. BUT AGAIN, COLLIN MCKINNEY IS ALREADY BUILT TO ACCOMMODATE. WAY MORE TRAFFIC THAN IT CURRENTLY HOLDS. AND SO IN TERMS OF ADDITIONAL IMPACTS THAT TRAFFICKED TRAFFIC ANALYSIS WOULD DO OR ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS. THERE'S NOT REALLY MORE THAT WE CAN REQUIRE OTHER THAN WHAT'S ALREADY REQUIRED BY THE CITY'S CODE. ANSWER THE QUESTION, SIR. I WANTED TO SAY SOMETHING JUST[01:05:03]
WANTED TO ADD. ONE MORE THING IS ONE OF THE SPEAKERS MENTIONED. DEBORAH STRETCHED HANSON AND COMMERCIAL ASSOCIATION HOLD ASSOCIATION. WE DON'T. ENFORCE THOSE RESTRICTIONS. WE DON'T ENFORCE THE RESTRICTIONS. IN THE CITY OF HOUSTON, THAT THAT'S ALL THEY HAVE. THEY DON'T HAVE ZONING. WE HAVE ZONING. THAT'S OUR LEVEL OF LAYER OF REGULATION, AND SO I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THE PUBLICS AWARE THAT THOSE ARE TO BE ENFORCED.THROUGH THE PRIVATE MHM. ASSOCIATIONS. CAN I INTERJECT ONE SECOND AND PARKING? EXCUSE ME, UM, OVERNIGHT PARKING 50 VEHICLES. WHERE DOES THAT FALL NOT FALL. YOU KNOW, UM, INTERPRETATION REGULATION? YES SO AT THIS POINT, THE CITY DOESN'T PROHIBIT OVERNIGHT PARKING AS LONG AS IT'S OFF STREET. SO IN THIS SCENARIO, IF THERE WERE 50 CARS PARKED THERE OVERNIGHT, IT WOULD NOT VIOLATE ANY PARKING REGULATIONS OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. BUT WE WOULD BE EVALUATING THAT AT THE SITE PLAN STAGE OF THE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS. YES THIS FOR MR HAUSER. BUT ARE YOU AWARE THAT THERE HAS BEEN A NEW ORDINANCE SAYING THAT THE COUNCILMAN AT LARGE NUMBER ONE CAN ONLY ASK 25 QUESTIONS? I THOUGHT IT WAS 26. WELL, I'M WITH YOU NOW WE'RE HAPPY TO HELP. THANK YOU. MR QUINT AND MR HAUSER. I WANT TO THANK YOU BOTH FOR EDUCATING ME AND EVERYONE ELSE AS TO WHERE WE ARE IN THIS PROCEDURE AND WANTS TO BE EXPECTED. FOR THE MOST PART, I'M GOING TO TRY NOT TO ASK ANY MORE QUESTIONS FOR THE BENEFIT OF MY COLLEAGUES. THANK YOU BOTH VERY MUCH. I'D FIRST LIKE TO THANK CHARLIE FOR HIS QUESTIONS. DEPENDS NOW FULLY UNDERSTAND WHERE WE ARE AND WHERE WE NEED TO GO NOW. UM ONE THING I WANT TO UNDERSTAND IS THE PROCESS THAT IF WE DECIDE TO GO FORWARD ON A STUDY, AN EMISSION STUDY OR WHATEVER. UM WE COME TO A CONCLUSION. AS A COUNCIL. WE STILL HAVE TO VOTE ON WHETHER WE WANTED TO ENACT IT, DON'T WE? ABSOLUTELY, IT WOULD BE AN ORDINANCE AMENDMENT. TO A ONE OF OUR UNIFORM CODES. SO IF WE GO THROUGH THAT PROCESS, AND WE GET TO THE END, AND WE SEE THAT IT'S GOING TO BE ONEROUS ON EVERYBODY, AND WE CAN CHOOSE NOT TO DO ANYTHING. THAT'S CORRECT, RIGHT? OKAY. MHM. THAT WAS MY CONCERN. OBVIOUSLY. THAT WOULDN'T BE MY FIRST PLACE TO PUT A GOES KITCHEN NUMBER ONE. SO I UNDERSTAND THE RESIDENTS THAT ARE UP HERE. WAS WAS KIND OF LIKE THE MAYOR WAS TAKEN BACK WITH THE ACCUSATIONS THAT WERE MADE. AND CANNED MAYBE MAD FOR A MINUTE. BUT I UNDERSTAND THE PASSION THAT THEY HAVE. I UNDERSTAND YOUR PASSION FOR YOUR COMMUNITY. I HOPE THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN BECAUSE THAT'S AS FAR FROM THE TRUTH IS, COULD BE UM. I THINK THAT MOVING FORWARD ON A ON A STUDY WOULD BE A PRUDENT THING TO DO. HAVING THE GHOST KITCHENS HAVE NEVER BEEN IN THE REALLY? WE HAVEN'T HAD A CHANCE TO DEAL WITH HIM. IT WOULD MAKE THEM FEEL BETTER THAT IF THERE ARE SOME MISSION EMISSIONS PROBLEMS THAT WE'VE TAKEN FULL STATURE TO ADDRESS THEM. SO. THAT'S REALLY THE ONLY COMMENT TIRED. YOU HAVE 27 MORE QUESTIONS, OKAY. I'M SORRY. YOU'RE NOT AT LARGE OUTSIDE THE ONLY AT LARGE. OKAY? SORRY. LARGE NUMBER ONE. YEAH. UM OTHER QUESTIONS. I'D LIKE TO SAY SOMETHING OTHER FOLKS. I UNDERSTAND YOU COME IN HERE AND YOU THINK WE'RE NOT? PAYING ATTENTION. I SEE A LOT OF YOUR FACES CONSTANTLY CHANGING, LIKE WHICH HANGING ON EVERY WORD. NOBODY IN HERE IS BENEFITING FROM THIS GHOST KITCHEN. WE'RE ACTUALLY IT'S A WE DON'T WANT FOLKS COMING IN HERE MAD AT US. YOU KNOW THAT. THAT'S NOT HOW CITIES WORK. WE WANT FOLKS COMING IN HERE. SAYING YOU GUYS ARE DOING A GREAT JOB. THANK YOU FOR WHAT YOU'RE GETTING DONE AND. FIXING A PROBLEM FIXING THE PROBLEM STARTS RIGHT HERE. PLEASE DON'T COME IN HERE AND TELL US THAT WE'RE TAKING THE BAIT. ER OR WE'RE TAKING THE MONEY FOR IT. IT DOESN'T MAKE ANYONE FEEL GOOD. I DID. I DIDN'T FEEL GOOD, ESPECIALLY AS A POLICE OFFICER. THEN I'M BEING PAID OFF TO BE TO BETTER GHOST KITCHEN IN MCKINNEY, TEXAS. WHEN I JUST FOUND OUT WHAT THE HELL THEY WERE A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO. SO I SHOULD HAVE BEEN DOING IT A LONG TIME AGO. I GUESS. UH NO. AND I WOULDN'T WANT IT IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD EITHER, BUT I'M HOPING THAT WE CAN GET THIS RESOLVED BY PUTTING THE ORDINANCE CENTER FIXING THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE IT'S PROBABLY NOT THE ONLY WE'RE PROBABLY NOT THE ONLY CITY THAT HAS THIS PROBLEM. I'M SURE EVERYONE ELSE IS IN THE SAME BOAT, AND THESE COMPANIES ARE LOOKING TO DO THE SAME THING IF THEY'RE OUT THERE, SO FIXING IT HERE
[01:10:05]
WORKING TOGETHER IS HOW WE'RE GOING TO FIX IT. SO THAT'S THE ONLY THING I HAVE TO SAY IT.CHARLIE. PRETTY MUCH DID THE OTHER 32 QUESTIONS. SO SO I WOULD, UM. MARK THAT'S PROBABLY QUESTION FOR YOU, UM. IF WE WERE TO IF IT WAS THE WILL THE COUNCIL TO ASK STAFF TO GO BACK AND STUDY THESE SEVERAL ISSUES. UM AND WE. REQUESTED TO COME BACK IN 30 DAYS OR I THINK SOMEWHERE AROUND JULY 20TH. I THINK WE HAVE A MEETING IN JULY. 20TH CORRECT. UM YOU HAVE ANY LIABILITY THERE? WITH REGARD WHEN I SAY LIABILITY NOW TALKING ABOUT. NO CRAVING A BUSINESS WHO CRAVES MOVING FORWARD UNDER CURRENT REGULATIONS, WHETHER THEY MEET THE CODE IS UP TO THEM. AND THE STAFF WILL TREAT THEM LIKE ANY OTHER APPLICANTS. BUT I DON'T KNOW IF THEY IN A STAGE WHERE THEY COULD GET A BUILDING PERMIT. WITHIN THAT TIME PERIOD. BUT AS I MENTIONED EARLIER WE'D BE TALKING ABOUT STANDARDS THAT APPLIED RIGHT POST. NO, AND THAT'S CERTAINLY SOMETHING THAT KIND OF THING I MENTIONED EARLY ON. I MEAN, WE.
WE DON'T HAVE ANY SEATS HERE BUT IN IT SEES HAS MULTIPLE, MANY, MANY KITCHENS. MANY, MANY CHEFS, UM MHM. I THINK WE HAVE KROGER MARKET STREET. UM. COSTCO ALL HAVE MULTIPLE &-PD COOKS AND ALL THAT. WE PROBABLY OWE US THAT KIND OF DATA AS WELL AS TO WHAT KIND OF BUSINESSES WOULD BE AFFECTED BY REGULATIONS THAT YOU MIGHT CONSIDER SO. UNLESS IS THERE OTHER COMMENTS? I HAVE I HAVE A COMMENT WE'VE GOT WE KEEP GETTING EMAILS. UM. THE STAFF BETWEEN STAFF AND SOME OF Y'ALL, UH. TRYING TO HELP STAFF DO THEIR JOB. AND IT'S NOT PRODUCTIVE. IT'S NOT PRODUCTIVE TO SAY WE WOULD APPRECIATE BEING COPIED AT ALL SUBMISSIONS AND COMMENTS. UM. IF YOU THINK ABOUT I KNOW YOU'RE PASSIONATE ABOUT THIS ONE THING. BUT IF STAFF WERE ASKED BY CITIZENS TO DO THAT ON EVERY PROJECT THREE OR FOUR PEOPLE SAYING, OH, I WANT TO BE COPIED ON THIS AND THAT. IT WOULD BE A NIGHTMARE. WE'D HAVE TO HIRE FIVE STAFF JUST TO KEEP UP WITH. KEEPING UP WITH COMMENTS. DON'T ASK THE STEP. PLEASE DON'T ASK THE STEP TO DO THAT. I APPRECIATE COMMENTS TO THE STAFFER, QUESTIONS AND STUFF LIKE THAT.
BUT. THAT'S NOT REALLY REASONABLE TO EXPECT CITY STAFF TO DO IS COPY YOU PERSONALLY ON ON INFORMATION BEING BEING SUBMITTED AND APPROVED THROUGHOUT THE APPROVAL PROCESS.
I'M SURE THERE'S A PLACE THAT THAT YOU CAN GO AND LOOK IT UP ON THE WEBSITE. AND SEE WHERE IT IS. AND I WOULD APPRECIATE YOU GOING THERE VERSUS ASKING THE STAFF FOR UPDATES AND WHATNOT. UM. THE OTHER THING THAT I UNDERSTAND THE PASSION. I DON'T UNDERSTAND THE ANGER.
I, UM. I GUESS THERE SHOULD BE ANGER IF WE WEREN'T LISTENING IF WE DIDN'T COME TO MEETINGS IF WE DIDN'T HAVE THIS MEETING, BUT BUT TO COME OUT HERE AND REALLY I JUST FELT. JUST I MEAN, IT'S JUST BEEN INTERESTING. I MEAN, IT DOESN'T HELP YOUR CAUSE TO MAKE THE ACCUSATIONS OR TO GET ANGRY AT US, AND WE'RE ON YOUR SIDE. WE'RE ON THE SIDE OF MCKINNEY, TEXAS, BUT WE ARE CONFINED. MY LAWS. AND ORDINANCES. AND WE'RE DOING OUR BEST. AND IF ONE OF YOU WERE SITTING UP HERE, YOU WOULD BE DOING THE EXACT SAME THING AS US YOU WOULDN'T BE ANY DIFFERENT AND UNDERSTAND WHEN YOU UNDERSTAND THE ENTIRE PICTURE. THERE'S NOT ONE BIT OF DIFFERENCE YOU WOULD BE DOING THAN WE'RE DOING RIGHT NOW. THERE'S A LOT OF STUFF THAT WE'RE TRYING TO GET DONE. KIND OF ON THE BACK SIDE, DAVID CRAIG CONTINUES TO WORK. AND IF AND IF AND IF WE CAN GET SOME CHANGES HERE WILL GET SOME CHANGES IF WE CAN KIND OF SLOW THIS DOWNERS OR HELP THEM FIND SOMEBODY ELSE. WE'LL GET THAT. BUT DON'T GET ANGRY AT US. IT JUST DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. IT'S JUST COMPLETELY UNMOTIVATED. FROM OUR STANDPOINT TO HAVE PEOPLE JUST GET MAD AT US WHEN WE HAVE NO. NOTHING TO DO. WITH WHAT'S GOING ON. AND LIKE I SAID, IF HAD THEY NOT ASK FOR US. SINGLE BILL, THEY'D BE IN THE PROCESS AND HAVE THIS HAPPEN. THIS THING WOULD ALREADY BUILT BY NOW. AND SO WE'RE JUST TRYING TO WORK WITH THEM. AND I WOULD ASK THAT YOU BE. BE PATIENT WITH THIS BECAUSE WE'RE TRYING TO DO WHAT WE CAN YES. SO I WOULD, UM, MAKE A MOTION. AT. WE DO ASK STAFF TO LOOK AT THE SEVERAL ISSUES THAT HAVE BEEN BROUGHT UP EMISSIONS. ALSO, WHAT WHO WOULD BE IMPACTED WITHIN THE CITY? UM BUT ALSO ON. I GUESS I GUESS PARKING OVERNIGHT HAS ALREADY ADDRESSED. I HAD
[01:15:02]
THOUGHT UNTIL THIS MEETING THAT THAT WAS SOMETHING THAT WAS OUTSIDE OF. DEFINITION OR THERE IS A CAVEAT IN THERE, BUT I GUESS NOT. UM. SO SOUNDS LIKE THE ONLY, UH OPTION. WE HAVE.AND THE PRUDENT THING. CERTAINLY ARGUABLY, THE PRUDENT THING IS TO STUDY THAT. UM, WHAT IS THE. WHAT IS THE IMPACT THERE AND OTHER BUSINESSES THAT ARE IN EXISTENCE RIGHT NOW? A SECOND. SECOND THAT ANY DISCUSSION ON THAT. RIGHT? IF YOU PLEASE. CAST YOUR VOTE.
I'M VOTING FOR IT. ONCE I GET LOGGED IN. MOTION PASSES WILL DO HAVE STAFF WILL STUDY THAT ISSUE AS WELL. AS HOW WHAT THE IMPACT WOULD BE ON OTHER BUSINESSES IN THE COMMUNITY, AND WE'LL SHOOT FOR 30 DAYS. JUST REMEMBER, UH, MAKE ONE COMMENT WITHOUT ASKING A QUESTION. FOR YOUR BENEFIT. THE COUNCIL IS NOT ALLOWED TO DISCUSS. THIS IS A BODY UNLESS WE'RE MEETING IN A PUBLIC MEETING. AND SO WE HAVE NOT BEEN. NOT AT LIBERTY TO DISCUSS ALL THE THINGS THAT YOU HEARD HERE THIS EVENING. OBVIOUSLY I WAS TRYING TO GET US TO THE POINT OF UNDERSTANDING HOW WE GOT HERE AND WHERE WE CAN GO FROM HERE. AND I DO WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT I LIKE YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD VERY MUCH. I ADMIRE YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD AS A GROUP ALTOGETHER. YOU'VE COME TOGETHER ON THIS ISSUE, AND I APPRECIATE IT VERY MUCH AND I'M DRYING TO EXPLORE WHAT ARE POSSIBILITIES ARE PUBLICLY. SO YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT WE KNOW WHAT WE CAN AND WHAT WE CANNOT DO. AND I APOLOGIZE IF I WAS LONG WINDED, ESPECIALLY TO MY FELLOW COUNCIL MEMBERS, BUT I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE ALL HAD AS MUCH INFORMATION AS POSSIBLE FROM HERE GOING FORWARD, BECAUSE NOBODY LIVES THAT WE GOT HERE. AND I APPRECIATE THAT HAPPENED VERY, VERY MUCH. SO, THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING HERE TODAY AND THANK YOU, MR MAYOR FOR LETTING MAYBE SO LONG WITH CHARLIE THAT THAT WAS THAT WAS A GREAT POINT. YOU KNOW, BECAUSE THE. SOME OF THE ANGER THAT WAS EXPRESSED. UH WAS, UM. AT THE MOST OFFENSIVE STUFF, BUT SOME OF THE OTHER THAT WE DON'T CARE. WHY NOT DO ANYTHING? WE'RE NOT RESPONDING. YOU KNOW, SINCE WE LEARNED OF THIS. THINK EVERYONE UP HERE MYSELF INCLUDED HAS WRITTEN LETTERS TO CRAVE MANAGEMENT CRAVE OWNERSHIP, UM, MET WITH THE DEVELOPER AND HE'S BEEN OUT TRYING TO FIND OTHER PROPERTIES OFFERING TO MITIGATE EXPENSES THEY'VE ALREADY HAD, UM, MAKE SURE THAT THEY WERE MADE WHOLE IF THEY WOULD CONSIDER ANOTHER OTHER LOCATIONS. WE'VE HAD A DISCUSSION IN THE LAST COUNCIL MEETING. WE'VE SAID A SPECIAL MEETING TO HAVE THIS DISCUSSION AGAIN AND TO YOUR POINT CHARLIE, WHICH IS REALLY A GREAT POINT. WE ARE THE ONLY TIME WE CAN DISCUSS THIS ISN'T A MEETING LIKE RIGHT HERE. SO I MEAN, WHEN WE HAD A MEETING WHAT WAS LAST WEEK AND WE SAID A SPECIAL MEETING THIS WEEK.
WE'RE ACTUALLY QUITE ENGAGED ON THIS SUBJECT. IT'S NOT LIKE WE'RE ABLE TO HAVE AFTER LAST MEETING ALL OF US. HEY, MAN, LET'S GET TOGETHER STARBUCKS AND TALK ABOUT THIS AND TRY TO GET SOMETHING DONE. THAT WOULD BE WHAT'S CALLED ILLEGAL, THEN YOU CAN MAKE AN ACCUSATION THAT WOULD BE ACCURATE ABOUT US DOING SOMETHING NOT PROPER. UM SO. KNOW THAT IF YOU DIDN'T KNOW THAT THE ONLY TIME WE CAN HAVE THIS DISCUSSION IS IN THIS KIND OF SETTING RIGHT HERE AND WE'RE SETTING MEETINGS. SPECIAL MEETINGS FOR THIS VERY, VERY REASON. SO. THAT WAS A GREAT POINT. THANKS FOR MAKING THAT ALL RIGHT. WE ARE GOING TO MOVE ON NOW TO OUR WE'RE GOING TO GO

FOR THEIR AFFORDABLE MULTI FAMILY DEVELOPMENT. 240 UNIT MULTI FAMILY DEVELOPMENT AT THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF WILMOTH. AND COMMUNITY AVENUE. UM THE REASON THAT THEY ARE ASKING FOR RESOLUTION OF NO OBJECTION IS BECAUSE THEY ARE APPLYING FOR TAX CREDITS THROUGH TD HCEA, TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND COMMUNITY AFFAIRS. IN ORDER FOR THEIR APPLICATION FOR TAX CREDITS TO MOVE FORWARD. THEY DO NEED A RESOLUTION OF NO OBJECTION. SO THERE ARE THREE DIFFERENT RESOLUTIONS ON THE AGENDA ITEM TONIGHT RESOLUTION OF NO OBJECTION RESOLUTION OF.
OPPOSITION AND A RESOLUTION OF SUPPORT. THEY ARE ASKING FOR A RESOLUTION OF NO OBJECTION AGAIN. WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THIS IN THE PAST, BUT THESE ARE TAX CREDIT UNITS, SO IT IS THE WAY THAT THEY ARE FINANCED IS THE REASON. WHEN OTHER MULTI FAMILY DEVELOPMENTS, UM COME IN.

WE DO HAVE A DEVELOPMENT REPRESENTATIVE JEAN LATSHAW WITH PET CORE INVESTMENTS IS HERE TO ANSWER ANY SPECIFIC QUESTIONS THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE ABOUT THE DEVELOPMENT AND, UH, I CAN ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS AS WELL. JUST IN CASE. UM AND WE ALL KNOW APPEAR, BUT ANYONE THAT'S JUST TUNING IN AND DIDN'T CATCH THE LAST MEETING. THIS IS A PROPERTY THAT, UM DID HAVE ALREADY MULTI FAMILY. MM. USE USES ON THE PROPERTY, ALBEIT IT WAS TWO STORY. UM THIS DEVELOPERS COME IN ONE SHOULD HAS COMMITTED HAS TO WITH THIS PROGRAM, BUT THE CLASS A PRODUCT. THE THREE STORY. THE NUMBER OF UNITS DID INCREASE. UH SLIGHTLY BY ADDING A SLIVER OF UNDEVELOPED MOBILE. COMMERCIAL PROPERTY. AND THE IDEA BEING, OF COURSE, THAT WITH THE TAX CREDIT PROGRAM, THEY'RE ABLE TO HAVE A REDUCTION IN COSTS THAT WAY TO BE ABLE TO OFFER A AFFORDABLE, UM, RATE WORKFORCE HOUSING RATE VERSUS A. DEGRADATION OR OR DOWNGRADE OF MATERIALS AND CONSTRUCTION, WHICH, AS A CITY WE CAN NO LONGER. MANDATE WHAT MATERIALS THEY USE. SO JUST FOR THOSE WHO NOT WATCHING LAST WEEK.

[01:25:02]
GUYS CALL IT. I AM FOUR AND I WANT TO SUPPORT THE DEVELOPMENT OF MULTI FAMILY PROPERTIES ON THE NORTH SIDE. JUST BECAUSE WHEN I WAS ON THE WAITING LIST TO GET TO THE MCCAIN IN HOUSING IT TOOK. QUITE A WHILE FOR US TO GET TO THE POINT WHERE I WAS ABLE TO GO THROUGH THE PROCESS OF ACTUALLY GETTING A UNIT AND WHEN I WAS ACTUALLY PLACE WHERE I WAS PLACED, IT WAS KIND OF LIKE IT WAS CHOSEN FOR ME, AND I DIDN'T HAVE. ANY OTHER OPTIONS OTHER THAN WHERE I WAS BEING SENT TO AND IN POSITIVE, EXPECT IT WOULD BE GREAT BECAUSE IT OPENS US UP TO OPPORTUNITY. FOR EMPLOYMENT IN DIFFERENT AREAS OF THE CITY ACTUALLY WORKED IN THE CITY OF MCKINNEY AND NOTICED THE HOMELESS RATE BECAUSE THEY ALWAYS WOULD COME INTO THE STORY THAT WORKING AND IT WAS THEY WERE WITH KIDS, TOO. SO I KNOW IT'S SAMARITAN AND I GOT SOME HELP THERE BRIEFLY, AND THAT WAS KIND OF THE ONLY OPTION, UH, SAMARITAN AND IT WAS OVERFILLED. MY FRIEND WAS TURNED AWAY, ACTUALLY, WHEN, AT THE TIME SHE WENT TO SUBMIT AND BECAUSE THEY WERE SO PAT, AND IT WAS KIND OF LIKE THERE'S NO OTHER OPTIONS, SO I WOULD LIKE TO BE THE VOICE THAT SAYS WE DO WANT OPTIONS. THE PARENTS WHO COME IN WHO WANT TO WORK WE HAVE OUR CHILDREN. WE WANT TO JUST BE HAVE A CHOICE OF WHERE WE LIVE. BECAUSE WHERE I LIVE NOW, IT COULD BE A LITTLE BIT BETTER. YOU KNOW, I'M A WORKING MOM. I PAY TAXES AS WELL. AND I WANT A NICE AREA FOR MY KIDS TO BE OUTSIDE AND RIDE THEIR BIKES AND PLAY AND I FEEL LIKE BEING ON THE NORTH SIDE WOULD HAVE ENHANCED OUR QUALITY OF LIFE AS THAT'S WHAT MCKINNEY IS FOR, YOU KNOW, SO JUST THINK OF EVERYONE. WE ARE LESS FORTUNATE. AND WE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE AN OPTION TO LIVING. PROBABLY A LITTLE BETTER PLACE OR AN OPTION. AT LEAST OPEN UP THAT DOOR FOR US TO SAY, WELL, WE WOULD LIKE OUR CASE TO BE IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD AND OPPOSED TO YOU HAVE TO BE HERE. BECAUSE THIS IS ALL WE HAVE. AND THAT'S ALL. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.DEREK CRUTCHER, YOUR. WAS DOING ON A NEW RESIDENT OF MCKINNEY MOVED HERE FROM DALLAS. UM I WANNA. TOP OF WHAT SHE WAS SAYING. WE HAVE VERY LITTLE OPTIONS. WHERE WE HAVE TO LIVE MY WEIGHT ON HOUSING FOR FOUR YEARS, I GUESS. THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TOOK SO LONG THE SAME MONEY OR WHATEVER. BUT, UM I AM A FAN OF GROWTH, PERSONAL. IN COMMERCIAL I THINK, UM. YOU NEED TO BE DONE IN THE RIGHT WAY. START WITH THE INSIDE OUT. NOT ALWAYS ABOUT THE BIG BUILDINGS IN COMMERCIAL STUFF. SO, UM. I'M LIKE I'M SAYING I'M A FAN OF GROWTH, COMMERCIAL AND PERSONAL SELF. LIKE SOME, UM. MORE CHOICES AND OPTIONS FOR WHERE WE LIVE THIS BODY. THANK YOU GUYS. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. WENDELIN MOSES. NAME'S GWENDOLYN MOSES. I DO LIVE HERE IN MCKINNEY, TEXAS. FIRST OF ALL, JUST WANT TO TELL YOU GUYS THANK YOU FOR ALL THAT YOU HAVE DONE. ESPECIALLY FOR OUR PART RIGHT NOW IN NEWSOME HOME, UM I JUST THINK THAT, UM. WE COULD DO A LOT BETTER WITH HELPING PEOPLE. UM, HAVE A STEP UP. IT'S NOT THAT EVERYBODY DOESN'T WANT TO WORK. EVERYBODY'S LAZY OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. WE DO NEED AFFORDABLE HOUSING FOR EVERYONE, SO EVERYBODY CAN LIVE SAFE. EVERYBODY CAN HAVE THIS PRIDE OF WHERE THEY LIVE. IT DOESN'T TAKE A LOT FOR US TO COME TOGETHER AND TO JUST, UM. YOU KNOW, HELP OUT FUTURE NEIGHBOR BECAUSE WE'RE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER. UM. MOST OF US MIGHT BE JUST ONE STEP AWAY FROM BEING NEEDING AFFORDABLE HOUSING. AND I'M ALSO THE. PRESIDENTIAL COUNSEL FOR NEWSOME, HOME ON THE VICE PRESIDENT AND TO HEAR THE THINGS THAT THE PEOPLE HAVE BEEN SAYING ABOUT THE WAITING LIST, AND OH, YOU CAN ONLY LIVE HERE. UH YOU DON'T MAKE ENOUGH.
NO, THEY DON'T WANT TO OVER HERE. WE'RE ALL OUR BROTHER'S KEEPER. AND I JUST WANT YOU GUYS TO KNOW THAT WE DO NEED AFFORDABLE HOUSING IN THE CITY OF MCKINNEY AND NOT JUST ON THE EAST SIDE.

GREAT DEVELOPED. I DON'T HAVE ANYONE ELSE SIGNED UP TO SPEAK. IS THERE ANYONE THAT WOULD LIKE TO THAT'S MADE THE TRIP HERE? THIS. I AM A NAME. NAOMI
[01:30:05]
HODGES. UM PART OF THE KENNY HOUSING AUTHORITY ADVISORY BOARD. I LIVE ON THE WEST SIDE OF MCKINNEY. UM. IN ONE WITH RIDGES, THE COMMUNITY I LIVE IN, AND SO I'M VERY FAMILIAR WITH THE LOCATION. OF THIS, UH PROPERTY. THAT'S. THAT'S BEING PROPOSED. FORGIVE ME. I JUST WALKED IN FROM THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE. I HAD HIP SURGERY TWO WEEKS AGO, BUT I FELT IT WAS NECESSARY TO COME HERE TODAY TO TALK ABOUT AFFORDABLE HOUSING, AND, UM, LIKE THE OTHER LADY SAID. AFFORDABLE HOUSING SHOULDN'T BE IN THE EAST OF THE WEST THING, AND IT SHOULD BE A MCKINNEY THING. AND. I'M PRIVILEGED ENOUGH TO LIVE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. THAT'S DEFINITELY NOT AFFORDABLE HOUSING. UM BUT I MOVED TO MCKINNEY 16 YEARS AGO AND LIVED IN A COMMUNITY CALLED BROOKE VIEW, WHICH, AT THE TIME I BOUGHT MY HOUSE FOR 1 14 4 30 WAS THE SALES PRICE. WAS PROBABLY MAKING ABOUT $45,000 A YEAR. BUT I WAS ABLE TO GET INTO THAT COMMUNITY. FOR JUST A NEW HOME. MY KIDS WERE ABLE TO GO TO MINCE YOU. THEY WERE ABLE TO GO TO COCKERILL. THEY WERE ABLE TO GO CAN AVOID HIGH SCHOOL BECAUSE THERE WAS AFFORDABLE HOUSING ON THAT SIDE OF THE COMMUNITY. AND I FEEL LIKE IT'S NECESSARY FOR US TO HAVE A GOOD MIX IN THE COMMUNITY. AND I'M HOPING THAT. THIS PROPOSAL WILL COME THROUGH. AGAIN. FORGIVE ME. I'M NOT COMPLETELY PREPARED, BUT I FELT IT WAS NECESSARY, AT LEAST TO SHOW MY FACE AND, UH. AND EXPRESS THAT I REALLY DO FEEL THAT THIS IS IMPORTANT AND THAT IT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. FOR ALL THE WORK YOU'RE DOING. I WAS LISTENING WHILE I WAS COMING FROM THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE TO THE OTHER SESSIONS THAT WERE HAPPENING, SO I'M GLAD THIS IS NOT AS ANGRY. BUT WE'LL BE EVEN HAPPIER IF THIS HAPPENS. SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THANK YOU. THANKS FOR SHARING. AND THERE WAS SOMEBODY ELSE. GOOD AFTERNOON. MY NAME IS PAULINE JOHNSON. UM LISTENING TO EVERYTHING EVERYONE ELSE WAS SAYING ABOUT AFFORDABLE HOUSING. I AM ONE OF THE LESS FORTUNATE THAT LIVED ON THE WEST SIDE. I LIVE ON THE EAST SIDE. UM. OVER ON THROUGHT MARTIN LAW DEPARTMENTS. AND I WOULD LOVE TO SEE OUR COMMUNITY. JUST TO BE REDEVELOPED. OUR KIDS NEEDS TO KNOW THAT THEY'RE SAFE. THEY NEED MORE THEY HAVE WHEN THEY GET OUT OF SCHOOL, THEY HAVE NOWHERE TO GO. UM EITHER THEY'RE OUT TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO TO KEEP THEM OCCUPIED. AND WHEN THEY DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO OUR KIDS GETTING IN TROUBLE. ON THE EAST SIDE OF MCCAIN. AND I'M ASKING. FOR YOU ALL TO PLEASE FIND A WAY TO HELP OUR COMMUNITY TO SAVE OUR KIDS. IF NOTHING ELSE, HELP US REDEVELOPED OUR COMMUNITY SO WE CAN BE SAFE SO OUR KIDS CAN LIVE COMFORTABLE. AND NO THE THIRD SAFE AND THEY HAVE JUST AS MUCH AS THE OTHER KIDS. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. RIGHT I DO NOT BELIEVE THERE'S ANYONE ELSE.I'M WRONG. IDENTIFY YOURSELF. I'VE SEEN NONE. EMOTION. COULD BE ANYTHING YOU WANTED TO. MOVE THAT WE CLOSED THE PUBLIC HEARING. SECOND EXTRA VOTES. RIGHT? DISCUSSION. LIKE TO ASK.
WELL, I'M SORRY. YEAH. SIX. GOOD. TONIGHT WHAT WOULD YOU MIND? UM EXPLAINING THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE RESOLUTIONS THAT ARE PROPOSED IN SUPPORT OPPOSITION AND OBJECTION, POLICE. SO THE RESOLUTION OF NO OBJECTION BASICALLY IS JUST SAYING THAT CITY COUNCIL DOESN'T SUPPORT DOESN'T OBJECT THAT THE DEVELOPMENT MEETS THE CRITERIA OF THE LOW INCOME HOUSING TAX CREDIT POLICY. AND MR HAUSER, PLEASE CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG.
THE RESOLUTION OF OPPOSITION SAYS THAT THERE IS SOMETHING IN THIS DEVELOPMENT AND IN THE CRITERIA THAT WERE EVALUATED THAT IS LACKING AND THE RESOLUTION OF SUPPORT IS JIHAD.
WE LOVE THIS AND WE WANT TO SUPPORT IT. AGAIN YOU'RE MORE THAN WELCOME TO DO THE RESOLUTION OF SUPPORT, BUT THEY ARE ONLY ASKING FOR RESOLUTION OF NO OBJECTION FOR THIS
[01:35:03]
PARTICULAR DEVELOPMENT. AND OF COURSE, I KNEW THAT, BUT I WAS JUST ASKING FOR OUR NEW COUNCIL MEMBERS. AND GENERATE THAT JUST TO BE CLEAR, UM. WHAT WERE EITHER SUPPORTING, OPPOSING, OR OR STATING NO OPPOSITION IS. IS THAT THE PROJECT MEETS THE CRITERIA FOR IT, NOT NOT WHETHER OR NOT. I SAY WE LIKE IT HERE. DON'T LIKE IT THERE LIKE ALBERTA LIKED ABOUT. WHERE DOES THIS SPECIFIC PROJECT MEET THE CRITERIA TO BE ELIGIBLE? THAT IS CORRECT. THAT IS CORRECT. AND IF IT WAS IN A CONCENTRATED ONE OF THE THINGS THAT TDH LOOKS AT, IS THEY LOOK AT CENSUS TRACTS, AND THEY LOOK AT THE CONCENTRATION. OF LOW INCOME HOUSING TAX CREDIT UNITS TO REGULAR HOUSEHOLD UNITS. AND IF IT WAS MORE THAN 20% THERE WOULD BE AN ADDITIONAL RESOLUTION THAT WOULD BE REQUIRED. THAT IS NOT THE CASE WITH THIS PARTICULAR DEVELOPMENT. AND. THEY WERE ASKING FOR THE RESOLUTION OF NO OBJECTION. CORRECT. THAT IS CORRECT. SAYING THAT WE'RE NOT IN FAVOR OR OR OPPOSE JUST DON'T OBJECT THAT'S CORRECT.THERE WERE A NUMBER OF QUESTIONS THAT CAME UP AT THE PREVIOUS MEETING, SO I JUST WANTED TO KIND OF. BACKTRACK BECAUSE I THINK ONE OF THE BIGGER CONCERNS IS THAT WE DON'T HAVE REALLY ANY. REGULATION ON WHO'S ACTUALLY LIVING THERE. THIS IS INTENDED FOR WORKFORCE HOUSING, BUT WE CAN'T REALLY REGULATE THAT. THAT WAS ONE OF THE ISSUES. THE OTHER QUESTION WAS ABOUT CRIME RATES, I THINK WAS THE OTHER THING THAT CAME UP SO. FOR ME.
I WANT TO KNOW. CAN SOMEONE SPECIFIED FOR ME? HOW MANY UNITS ARE IN NEWSOME HOMES? RIGHT NOW. DOES ANYONE KNOW 100 181 180, SO THIS ONE IS PROPOSED FOR ABOUT 249 OF THOSE ARE ONE BEDROOM, ONE BATH 108 OR TWO BEDROOM, TWO BATH AND 36 OR THREE BEDROOM, TWO BATH. AND I HAVE THE WAY THAT THIS IS LIMITED TO WORKFORCE. HOUSING IS THERE IS A MAXIMUM INCOME THAT IS ALLOWABLE FOR EACH OF THESE UNITS, SO IT IS ENFORCED IN THAT WAY, TDH TO ALLOWS THE TAX CREDITS TO BE PUT INTO THESE UNITS, AND THEY VERY, VERY CLOSELY ENFORCE THE REGULATIONS THAT ENFORCE THE INCOME AND DOING THE ANNUAL RE CERTIFICATIONS OF INCOME. BUT WHEN SOMEBODY RENTS IT THEN. HOWEVER, THEY SUDDENLY SAID TO ALL THEIR FRIENDS COME, YOU KNOW, THERE'S NO UPKEEP OF THAT. WHAT WOULD YOU DO THAT COULD I BRING IN THE DEVELOPER TO SPEAK TO THAT BECAUSE SHE'S VERY, VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT THE DIFFERENT REGULATIONS THAT THEY HAVE TO MEET ON THEIR DEVELOPMENTS. GOOD EVENING. I'M GENE THAT TIME WITH PET CORE INVESTMENTS. UM. AND JUST BY WAY OF BACKGROUND TO ACTUALLY ADMINISTERED THIS PROGRAM FOR THE STATE OF TEXAS FOR A FEW YEARS BEFORE I, UH, CAME ON WITH PET CORE WHEN I DECIDED TO KIND OF JUMP SHIP. I HAD MY PICK OF THE LITTER A LITTLE BIT AND CHOSE PAD CORE OVER SOME OTHER OPPORTUNITIES, LARGELY SO THAT I CAN ANSWER QUESTIONS LIKE THIS. SO WE'VE BEEN IN BUSINESS FOR OVER 30 YEARS. I ACTUALLY DEVELOPED THE FIRST TAX CREDIT DEVELOPMENT IN INDIANA WHEN THE PROGRAM WAS FORMED BACK IN 1987 WITH THE REAGAN ADMINISTRATION, UM. AND HAVE BEEN DOING THAT EVER SINCE. SO ARE DEFINITELY THE EXPERTS IN THIS FIELD HAVE DEVELOPED OVER 26,000 UNITS IN 20 STATES. WE ALSO HAVE AN AFFILIATE GENERAL CONTRACTOR. AND MOST IMPORTANTLY TO THIS QUESTION AND AFFILIATE PROPERTY MANAGER. OUR BUSINESS MODEL ALSO PROOFS IN THE PUDDING. YOU CAN LOOK AT OUR PORTFOLIO. WE HOLD ON WITH THESE PROPERTIES LONG AFTER 15 YEARS, BUT ACTUALLY UPWARDS OF 2025 YEARS, WE STILL HAVE. LOT OF THOSE PROPERTIES IN OUR PORTFOLIO THAT WE STILL OWN THAT WE STILL MANAGE. WE ARE ALSO THE LARGEST BORROWER IN THE NATION. HUD HAS ALLOWED US TO BORROW. MORE MORE MONEY THAN ANYONE ELSE, MAINLY BECAUSE WE'VE NEVER DEFAULT. THESE PROPERTIES FUNCTION THE SAME WAY AS A MARKET RATE. UH, DEVELOPMENT. FUNCTIONS WE HAVE A MORTGAGE TO PAY, RIGHT? UM AND SO WE NEED TO HAVE GOOD TENANTS THAT ARE PAYING THEIR RENT. UM AND SO THAT WE CAN PAY THAT MORTGAGE AND THAT WE CAN CONTINUE TO DO BUSINESS. SO WE HAVE STRICT TENANT SELECTION CRITERIA THAT INCLUDES CRIMINAL BACKGROUND CHECKS. ALSO LEASE RENTAL HISTORY, CREDIT HISTORY, SO THAT WE KNOW WE'RE GETTING SOME GOOD TENANTS IN THERE. ONCE THEY ARE IN THEIR, UM, THE NO. THEY ARE NOT ALLOWED TO SUBLEASE. WE DO HAVE STRICT HOUSE RULES REGARDING THE NUMBER OF FOLKS THAT DO LIVE IN THOSE THOSE. UNITS IT'S A IT'S A PER BEDROOM. IT'S BASICALLY TWO PER BEDROOM. THERE MIGHT BE
[01:40:03]
AN EXCEPTION IF YOU'VE GOT A BABY THAT'S BORN WHILE YOU'RE THERE SOME THINGS LIKE THAT, BUT THAT'S THE GENERAL RULE OF THEM. AND ALSO VERY STRICT, NO DRUG POLICIES THAT ARE ALL ENFORCED BY OUR LEASE AT OUR LEASE IN TANDEM AND US AS A COMPANY. I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY OTHER QUESTIONS. I HOPE THAT DID ANSWER THE QUESTION. IF LONG WINDED. THANK YOU. YOU HAVE ACTUALLY ANSWERED A COUPLE QUESTIONS FROM. QUICK, GET A REAL QUICK QUESTION I HAD WAS APPROACHED LAST WEEK AFTER THE MEETING. WE HAD UM. SO IF SOMEONE DOESN'T QUALIFY FOR THE WORKFORCE PORTION WITH THE. THE JOB WITH WHERE THEY'RE WORKING THE JOB BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO SHOW PAYCHECK, RIGHT? THE CORRECT HAVE PROOF OF INCOME OF ABILITY TO PAY RENT. ABSOLUTELY BUT THEY DO QUALIFY FOR SECTION EIGHT. WILL THEY STILL QUALIFY FOR THIS PRODUCT? SO THE TAX CREDIT PROGRAM. DOES REQUIRE THAT WE CANNOT TURN AWAY A TENANT SOLELY BECAUSE THEY HAVE A HOUSING CHOICE. VOUCHER NOW IF SOMEONE COMES TO ME, AND THEY HAVE A VOUCHER, AND THEY OTHERWISE MEET OUR CRITERIA, WHICH INCLUDES THAT CRIMINAL BACKGROUND, CHECK THE OTHER RENTAL AND CREDIT HISTORY. YES I DO HAVE TO ACCEPT THEM. I CAN'T SAY OH, BECAUSE YOU'RE ABOUT YOUR HOLDER. I CAN'T ACCEPT THAT FORM OF PAYMENT. I AM REQUIRED TO ACCEPT IT NOW.IF THEY COME, THEY HAVE A VOUCHER AND THEY DON'T PASS OUR CRIMINAL BACKGROUND CHECK. AND THEY OTHERWISE HAVE POOR LEASING HISTORY OR POOR CREDIT HISTORY THAN I DO NOT HAVE TO ACCEPT THAT TENANT. THE REASON I BRING THAT UP, BECAUSE I THINK THERE'S SOME MISCOMMUNICATION ON ON HOW IT WAS PRESENTED TO US LAST WEEK. THAT THAT WASN'T ACCURATE. AND SO I'M NOT SURE THAT THE HOMEOWNERS THAT WHERE THIS IS GOING IN THAT AREA KNOW THAT THIS COULD BE A SECTION EIGHT PROPERTY. WELL, I WOULDN'T QUALIFY IT AS SECTION EIGHT PROPERTY BECAUSE THAT'S REALLY NOT AN ACCURATE QUALIFICATION. LIKE I SAID, IF SOMEONE HAS A HOUSING CHOICE VOUCHER. AND THEY OTHERWISE MEET OUR TENANT SELECTION CRITERIA, THEN I CANNOT DENY THEM SOLELY BECAUSE THEY HAVE A VOUCHER. SO YOU'VE GOT 15, BUT I DON'T HAVE PROJECT GET APPROVED BY THEY BECOME THE SECTION BUT I DON'T AND I THINK A LOT OF THE TIMES WHEN PEOPLE TALK ABOUT SECTION EIGHT HOUSING RIGHT WHICH, LIKE I SAID SET. WE DON'T HAVE PROJECT BASED VOUCHERS AT THIS DEVELOPMENT, RIGHT? THERE'S NO UNITS THAT ARE PARTICULARLY ASSOCIATED WITH A VOUCHER. IT'S THE FOLKS WHO COME IN OUR DOOR THEY MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE.
HOUSING CHOICE VOUCHER, WHICH IS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH ANY PROPERTY. BUT THE SAME GOES. I OWN A SINGLE FAMILY RENTAL PROPERTY RIGHT SO I CAN MAKE THE DECISION ON MY OWN EVEN AND SO COULD ANYBODY'S NEIGHBOR RIGHT? IF THEY HAVE A RENTAL PROPERTY, SOMEONE COMES TO THEM AND HAS A HOUSING CHOICE VOUCHER. AND THEY FEEL LIKE THEY WANT TO ACCEPT THAT PAYMENT BECAUSE IT'S A PRETTY SOLID FORM OF PAYMENT THAN ANYONE CAN ACCEPT. HOUSING CHOICE VOUCHER, RIGHT? WE'RE SAYING WE WILL ACCEPT THEM TOO. AS LONG AS YOU MEET THE REST OF OUR CRITERIA. I WILL SAY IS SOMEONE WHO HAS SIGNED. ALL OF THE HOUSING CHOICE. VOUCHER CHECKS FROM THE HOUSING AUTHORITY IN MCKINNEY. WE HAVE THEM IN MULTI FAMILY PROPERTIES.
WE HAVE THEM IN A SINGLE FAMILY PROPERTIES. WE HAVE THEM IN EAST MCKINNEY AND WEST MCKINNEY. ANYBODY HOUSING CHOICE VOUCHER TENANT PLACE WILL TAKE THEM EVERYWHERE IN OUR CITY. AND SO THEY'RE NOT. THEY'RE NOT CONCENTRATED TO ONE PROJECT. IN THE WAY SHE DESCRIBED. THE QUESTIONS. THANK YOU. WE HAVE ANY OTHER HOUSING? UM. THE DEVELOPMENTS LIKE THIS ON THE WEST SIDE AT ALL RIGHT NOW. PEOPLE ARE BEING BUILT. THERE ARE, UM. BELIEVE FIVE.
HOW, UH, LIE TEK PROPERTIES WEST OF 75, MILLENNIUM POST OAK. SKY SKYLINE. MCKINNEY FLATS AND THEN THIS ONE. IT'S GOT MY VILLAS, AND THEN THIS ONE PLENTY OVER. RISK. I KNOW THAT'S ANOTHER DISCUSSION, BUT WE NEVER LOOK AT AND LIKE THOSE NUMBERS WE DON'T LOOK AT. BUT I UNDERSTAND WHERE THE FRUSTRATION COMES FROM RAINING. FEEL LIKE WE CARRY THE LOAD FOR EVERYBODY. I WOULD SAY TO THAT WE BUILT OUR CITY ON THAT BECAUSE WE BUILT IT WITH MANUFACTURING AND DISTRIBUTING. WE HAVE IN MY DISTRICT A TON OF JOBS THAT PAY 12 15 $17 AN HOUR THAT CAN'T AFFORD IT. $375,000 AVERAGE HOME PRICE AND WE MADE THAT DECISION. IN THE NINETIES.
WE MADE THAT DECISION IN THE EARLY TWO THOUSANDS AND SO A LOT OF THE PROPERTIES THAT WE
[01:45:05]
HAVE THAT ATLANTIC PROPERTIES HAVE COME FROM THAT DEVELOPMENT, PERIOD AND WE ALSO HAVE AN ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF. SENIOR HOUSING THAT HAS THAT, SO WE'VE DONE HALF OF OUR PRODUCT IS SENIOR HOUSING. IF YOU TAKE THE GRAND TEXAS AND RESERVE AND DO SOME HOMES. PROPERTIES ARE SENIOR HOUSING AND SO. IN TERMS OF COMPARISONS TO OTHER CITIES. WE HAVE MORE THAN ANY OTHER CITY IN COLLIN COUNTY. WE HAVE A HIGHER PER CAPITA. IN ANY OTHER COUNTY. BUT WE ARE LOKER THAN ANY OTHER CITY IN COLLIN COUNTY, BUT WE ARE LOWER THAN ANY OTHER COUNTY SEAT IN A URBAN OR SUBURBAN AREA. I THINK ALL BUT ONE WHEN I DID THE CALCULATION ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO. SO WE HAVE THIS BECAUSE THIS IS WHO WE WORK. WE WERE UP CITY OF 25,000 PEOPLE THAT WANTED TO BRING GOOD JOBS. HERE IN THE NINETIES AND TWO THOUSANDS. AND THAT'S THE WAY WE DID IT UNTIL WE STILL HAVE A LOT OF THAT PRODUCT ON THE GROUND. I BELIEVE WE'RE NUMBER THREE, NOW IN COLLIN COUNTY PER CAPITA, SO WE CAN PROVIDE YOU WITH THAT UPDATED INFORMATION.BELIEVE THAT MELISSA AND ANNA HAVE MORE PER CAPITA. TAX CREDIT UNITS. NOW THEN, THEN, MCKINNEY DOES. MCKINNEY HAS MORE THAN EVERYBODY COMBINED. CORRECT. NOT THAN EVERYONE COMBINED. NOT THEN ALL THE OTHER CITIES COMBINED AND CALLING COUNTY BUT WE WERE AT THE TOP. NOW THEIR TAX CREDIT DEVELOPMENTS BECAUSE OF THE SCORING CRITERION. ALL OF THAT THEY'VE GONE TO OTHER AREAS. SO THEY HAVE MORE PER CAPITA THAN WE DO. I BELIEVE I BELIEVE IT'S MELISSA NANA. BUT I CAN GET THAT INFORMATION TO YOU. CURIOUS MR BELLER, WHICH WAS THE OTHER COUNTY SEAT. YOU KNOW WHEN YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT THE SUBURBAN COUNTY SEATS OUTSIDE OF HOUSTON, AND, UM. AUSTIN SAN ANTONIO. I THINK IT WAS THE ONE THAT WAS NOT AS HIGH AS US WAS OUT OF HOUSTON. I HAVE TO GO BACK. AND LOOK, I CAN'T REMEMBER WHICH ONE IT WAS, BUT WE WERE. WE WEREN'T AS HIGH AS LIKE GEORGETOWN, WHICH WAS THE SUBURBAN OF, UH, COUNTY SEAT OUTSIDE OF AUSTIN. BUT IN OUR SIZE RANGE. AND THAT'S WHO WE SHOULD BE COMPARING AGAINST WERE NOT AS HIGH AS DENTON. WE'RE NOT AS HIGH AS A LOT OF THE PLACES THAT COUNTY SEATS AND SO THAT EVALUATION SHOULDN'T NECESSARILY BE LOOKED AT IT THE STATIC POINT IN TODAY. YOU GO. YOU'VE GOT TO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE DEVELOPMENT HISTORY THIS PRODUCT. YOU SAID 87 WASN'T WASN'T AROUND WHEN PLANO WAS LARGELY DEVELOPING. YOU KNOW IT WASN'T USED. WHEN THEY WERE PUTTING UP. HOUSING STOCK. AND SO IT JUST KIND OF FIT IN THE TIMING THAT MCKINNEY DEVELOPED AND FIT FOR WHAT WE DO, AND SO A LOT OF OUR STOCK HAS TO BE ATTRIBUTED TO THAT TYPE OF MM. PLACEMENT AND THEN. AS WE'VE GROWN. WE'VE SEEN AN INCREASE IN DEMAND FOR AND EVERYBODY'S SAYING THAT THANK YOU. DISCUSSION. THAT ENTERTAIN A MOTION. MAKE A MOTION THAT WE GIVE THEM. SUPPORT. THIS PROJECT. RIGHT, SO MOTION FOR NON SUPPORT. SO THIS IS NOT THAT NOT NOT OF NO OPPOSITION, JUST NOT SUPPORT OPPOSITION SUPPORT. SOLUTION IS NO SOLUTION OF OPPOSITION. THERE'S A MOTION OF RESOLUTION OF OPPOSITION. I'LL SECOND. CAST YOUR VOTES. MOTION DOES NOT PASS. IS THERE ANOTHER MOTION? MAKE A MOTION OF NO OBJECTION. RIGHT? THESE CASH FOR VOTES. REPEAT THE MOTION FOR HIM. NO NO OBJECTIONS WERE NOT SUPPORTING PRETTY CONFUSING, NOT OPPOSING. THANK YOU. I WISH I COULD, TOO. THANK YOU, MR MAYOR. THE MOTION PASSES, UM. WE HAVE A WE HAVE A TIMING ISSUE, SO WE MAY NEED TO PUSH SOME THINGS IF WE CAN, BECAUSE WE HAVE A SIX O'CLOCK EXECUTIVE SESSION THAT WE HAVE EXECUTIVE SESSION. THEY'VE GOT TO LEAVE AT A CERTAIN TIME. I AM. YEAH,

YEAH, YEAH. KOWSKI. THEIR POTENTIAL APARTMENT. DEDICATION ORDINANCE. YEAH. I WOULD, I WOULD SAY, LET'S WHY DON'T WE PUSH EM? THE LESS THE WORK SESSION ITEMS TO JULY 6TH. THAT WORK FOR EVERYBODY. THEIR IMPORTS. RIGHT, SO WE WILL PUSH THOSE. WE NEED TO. WE NEED A MOTION ON THAT, OR ARE WE JUST OH, HANG ON. ALWAYS HERE. LIKE. SORRY, DUDE. ALL RIGHT, SO WE[Update on Potential Parkland Dedication Ordinance Modifications]
WILL JUMP TO 210570. WE WILL PUSH TO 1569 TO THE NEXT JULY SIX MEETING. WE WILL. HAVE WORK SESSION ON UPDATE ON POTENTIAL PARKLAND DEDICATION ORDINANCE MODIFICATIONS. MIKE CASKEY, ARE YOU HERE? YES. THANK YOU. MICHAEL KOWSKI, DIRECTOR OF PARKS AND RECREATION. AS I UNDERSTAND IT. WE ARE UNDER A TIME CRUNCH HERE. SO IF I MAY, I WILL GO AHEAD AND KIND OF SPEAK TO THE HIGH POINTS OF WHAT WE'RE HERE FOR TODAY. SO TODAY, WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT OUR CURRENT ORDINANCE SPEAK TO OUR RESEARCH. POTENTIALLY REFLECTING CHANGES AS WELL AS LOOK AT SOME EXAMPLES ABOUT HOW WE CAN UPDATE THE ORDINANCE GOING FORWARD. JOINING ME TODAY IS MISS JENNY BAKER, WHO IS OUR PARKS, PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT MANAGER, AS WELL AS DR CRAMPTON, WHO IS A PROFESSOR AT TEXAS A AND M. IT'S IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT MR CRAMPTON IS THE EXPERT IN THIS FIELD. IT'S ALSO A COUNCIL MEMBER IN THE CITY OF COLLEGE STATION. SO HE UNDERSTANDS ALL THE FACETS OF THIS POLICY RECOMMENDATION.CURRENT ORDINANCE. UH WE'RE RIGHT NOW, IF A RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT COMES IN. FOR EVERY 50 UNITS THEY BUILD, THEY MUST DEDICATE ONE ACRE OF PARKLAND TO THE CITY. TYPICALLY THAT COMES IN THE FORM OF LAND. WHEN WE CANNOT ACCEPT LAND. WE TAKE A FEE IN THE WORLD, SO THE CASH EQUIVALENT OF WHAT THAT PROPERTIES WORTH? AND WE PARKED THAT MONEY. IN ONE OF THESE FOUR ZONES AT THE CENTER OF THAT, OF COURSE, IS 75 3 80. AND WE CAN ONLY SPEND MONEY.
NET ZONE FROM DEVELOPMENT THAT HAPPENS IN THAT ZONE. SO AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, ZONE THREE IS ROBUST WITH ALL DEVELOPMENT ZONE, TOO. RIGHT NOW IS NOT AS STRONG JUST BECAUSE OF THE RHYTHM AND LOCATION OF DEVELOPMENT. SO WHY ARE WE PROPOSING TO MODIFY OUR ORDINANCE? FIRST AND FOREMOST, IT WAS A RECOMMENDATION IN OUR PARKS MASTER PLAN ADOPTED BY CITY COUNCIL IN 2017. HAS NOT BEEN TOUCHED IN ABOUT 20 YEARS. WE DON'T HAVE MUCH DOCUMENTATION ABOUT OUR CURRENT STANDARDS AND METHODS. AND FINALLY WE ARE EXPOSED TO CHALLENGES, INCLUDING MITIGATION. WE'VE HAD A FEW CASES IN MY TENURE. IN FACT, ON THAT TOPIC, AND THAT'S THE KEY REASON WE'RE HERE TODAY TO MAKE SURE WE FIRM UP OUR APPROACH.
YEAH, I KNOW. AND YES, AND ASK WELL. MARSHALL. ALWAYS DOING NO. IF THERE'S. ONE ANCHOR FOREVER 50 RESIDENTS AS A TOTAL. HOW IS MCKINNEY DOING? DUDE, DO WE HAVE HIS. ONE ANCHOR FOR EVERY 50 RESIDENT. WE DO HAVE THAT AND IT'S COMING UP IN THE PRESENTATION, BECAUSE SURE EXACTLY WHERE WE'RE SITTING WITH THAT NUMBERS ARE. IT'S A NICE WAY OF SAYING SHUT UP COUNSELING. NO SIR, I GET YEAH. SO PARTNERS WOULDN'T BE SO, NASH FAIR ENOUGH. IN OUR TENT WITH THIS MODIFICATION IS TO MAINTAIN OUR LEVEL OF SERVICE. THE EXPECTATIONS OF OUR RESIDENTS TODAY AND TOMORROW. IS TO CREATE IN METHODOLOGY THAT IS CORRECT, DEFENSIBLE AND, OF COURSE, SOME OPTIONS FOR CREDITS AND OTHER STANDARD REDUCTIONS. THIS IS AN IMPORTANT ONE. UM, PARKS ARE IMPORTANT TO OUR CITY. IN THE MOST RECENT SURVEY WE COMPLETED ACROSS THE CITY APPROXIMATE RECREATION WAS BOTH IMPORTANT AND HIGH QUALITY AND OUR GOAL IS TO MAINTAIN THAT. WE ARE ALSO, UM, LOOKING AT TWO WAYS TO ADDRESS THIS ONE IS LOOKING AT DRAWING UNITS PER UNIT. ARMS JOINT UNITS PER ACRE. AS WELL AS WHAT IT COSTS ACTUALLY BUILD ONE ACRE PARKLAND. HOW THAT FOLDS INTO THIS CONVERSATION. WE MUST DEMONSTRATE THAT THERE IS A PROPORTIONATE ASK FROM DEVELOPERS THAT MEETS THE NEEDS OF NEW DEVELOPMENT. THERE MUST
[01:55:05]
BE A CORRELATION BETWEEN THOSE TWO THINGS. AT PRESENT, WE ARE PROPOSING TO HAVE THE THREE ELEMENTS IN OUR UPDATE A LAND REQUIREMENT, A FIELD OF LOVE AND, OF COURSE, A PARK DEVELOPMENT FEE AND I'LL WALK THROUGH EACH OF THESE. SO. HUSBAND PHILLIPS. THIS ANSWERS YOUR QUESTION. AT PRESENT TODAY. MCKINNEY WE ARE PROVIDING ONE ACRE FOR EVERY 37 UNITS BUILT IN THE KIDNEY. AND THIS IS THE MAGIC OF OUR RESEARCH THAT WE'VE DONE. RATHER THAN 1 TO 50 WAS ACTUALLY UNDERGROUND. TODAY IS ONE PER 37. THAT IS OUR RECOMMENDATION. ONE THAT CHANGES WERE RECOMMENDING IS TO MOVE FROM 1 TO 50 TO 1 37 TO MAINTAIN OUR LEVEL OF SERVICE GOING FORWARD. BUT THAT DOES OF COURSE IN THE SCENARIOS I PRESENT HERE IS INCREASES THE AMOUNT OF LAND DEVELOPER MUST PROVIDE TO THE CITY. AND OR INCREASES THE FILM THE WORLD ONE OR THE OTHER. ANOTHER KEY COMPONENT WE'RE CONSIDERING LOOKING AT IS GOING FROM FOUR ZONES TO SEVEN. WHAT THIS DOES. IT SHRINKS DOWN THE SIZE OF THE ZONES AND ALLOWS DEVELOPERS TO SEE THEIR MONEY IN ACTION CLOSER TO THEIR DEVELOPMENT, WHICH, OF COURSE, MITIGATING CONCERN RIGHT NOW DEVELOPERS EXPRESSED TO US. WE'RE ALSO CONSIDERING LOANS BETWEEN ITS ZONE SO ALONE BETWEEN THE HIGH PERFORMING ZONE IN A LOWER PERFORMING ZONE. TO EQUALIZE THE BALANCE OF PROBLEM DEDICATION ACROSS THE CITY. WHAT DOES THE COST OF BUILDING ACRES OF PARKLAND MCKINNEY SO WE DID THE CALCULATIONS? WE HAVE ALL THE MATH BEHIND THIS.IT COSTS ABOUT. JUST SHORT OF $2000 PER SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING UNIT TO PUT ONE ACRE APARTMENT ON THE GROUND. THAT'S A COMBINATION OF ACTIVE PARKLAND TAKE ON EQUIPMENT, BUT ALSO TRAILS AND MORE PASSIVE USES AS WELL. THIS IS A PART DEVELOPMENT FEE. SO RIGHT NOW WE DO NOT HAVE A PARK DEVELOPMENT FEED CITY MCKINNEY. OUR MASTER PLAN ADOPTED IN 2017 GUESTS. IT WOULD BE ABOUT $2000 PER UNIT BUILT. OUR RESEARCH SHOWS THAT INDEED FOR SINGLE FAMILY $1900. MULTI FAMILY $1600. THIS MONEY IS USED TO ACTUALLY BUILD THE PARKS. SO THE FIRST EXAMPLE I GAVE IS FOR US TO ACQUIRE LAND. THEN THE CITY NEEDS ACTUAL FUNDS TO CONSTRUCT THE PARK AND ACTIVATED. THAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THIS FEE HERE. THAT HAS A SUBSTANTIAL IMPACT AND THE INVESTMENT WE'RE ASKING DEVELOPERS TO PLACE IN OUR PARK SYSTEM. SO ON THE LEFT $400,000 CASH IN THE WORLD. WITH THE PROPOSED MODIFICATIONS. IT APPROACHES JUST SHY OF $1 MILLION CONTRIBUTIONS. CITY OF FRISCO WENT THROUGH THIS EXERCISE RECENTLY. IN 2018. THEY ADOPTED THEIR NEW CODE. THEY HAD SOME DIFFERENT MATH BECAUSE IT'S A DIFFERENT CITY. DIFFERENT CONTEXT, BUT THEY ARRIVED AT SOME SIMILAR NUMBERS. FOR DEVELOPMENT OF 200 SINGLE FAMILY UNITS, $100,000 PER ACRE. WE'RE PROPOSING 5.4 ACRES. THERE ARE 5.3, BUT YOU'LL SEE THAT THEY'RE PART DEVELOPMENT FEES ARE HIGHER.
AND MCKINNEY IS PRESENTING TODAY. AND HERE'S THE IMPORTANT TRANSITION. EVERYTHING I'VE SPOKEN ABOUT SO FAR IS THE MAP. IS WHAT IS DEFENSIBLE IN THE EYES OF THE COURT. THIS IS THE REALITY OF WHAT IT COSTS TO KEEP OUR LEVEL OF SERVICE IN THE BUILDING PARKING MCKINNEY.
CITIES ARE DOING THIS ACROSS TEXAS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE BEING TRANSPARENT IN THIS. WE CAN STACK OR LAYER ON TOP OF THIS. THOSE CERTAIN POLICIES. SUCH AS REDUCING THE OVERALL FEE BY 40. AND THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT FRISCO DID. SO FRISCO HAS A POLICY AS PART OF THEIR PROGRAMME THAT CALCULATES THE FEES THE EMPIRICAL PROCESS. OVERLAYS THE POLICY. YOU'LL SEE THE RELATIONSHIP HERE. THE CURRENT IN THE BOTTOM LEFT HAND CORNER BEFORE $100,000 IS OUR CURRENT METRIC IN THIS EXAMPLE. CEDAR FRISCO, SAME TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT WOULD BE $650,000 CASH IN LIEU OF OUR FEE IN LIEU OF. IN ADDITION, WE CAN OVERLAY ADDITIONAL POLICIES. FOR INSTANCE, AFTER WE REDUCE IT BY 40% THAT'S A NUMBER AS AN EXAMPLE. WE CAN TALK ABOUT THAT FURTHER LATER DATE, WE CAN ALSO REDUCED FURTHER BASED ON PROJECT TYPE. FOR A SENIOR HOUSING TYPE PROJECT OR AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROJECT. WE CAN REDUCE IT, FOR INSTANCE BY AN ADDITIONAL 50. WE FEEL STRONGLY THAT ALL FOLKS IN MCKINNEY USED PARKS IN SOME WAY, SHAPE OR FORM. BUT WE SHOULD CERTAINLY CERTAINLY SHOULD LOOK AT THE ACTIVITY AND PERCENTAGE OF USAGE SO THAT REDUCTION IS ONE WAY FOR US TO APPROACH THAT PROBLEM.
[02:00:02]
PARTNERSHIPS THIS IS A KEY POINT IF A DEVELOPER COMES TO US WISHES TO DONATE THE LAND AND BUILD THE PARKS, WE ARE ALL FOR IT. DEVELOPERS CAN DO IT A BIT QUICKER. CAN YOU DO IT A BIT MORE ECONOMICALLY BECAUSE THERE'S ECONOMY OF SCALE BUT THE ENERGY OF THEIR ENTIRE DEVELOPMENT. SO WE STILL ENCOURAGE THAT PROCESS, AND WE'RE SEEING THAT MORE AND MORE RECENTLY. IF DEVELOPERS BUILD PRIVATE, PRIVATE AMENITIES AND THEIR DEVELOPMENT. WE'RE WILLING TO GIVE CREDITS AS WELL. SO FOR MULTI FAMILY, FOR INSTANCE. ADMINISTRATION. WE ARE OPEN TO PHASE PAYMENTS. THERE'S SOME NOTION THAT AS PROJECTS BECOME CASH POSITIVE.DO WE NOT COLLECT THESE? UNTIL THAT MOMENT HAPPENS TO HELP DEVELOPERS ABSORB SOME OF THE INVESTMENT COSTS IN OUR PARKS. REIMBURSEMENT CLAUSES, OF COURSE, CAN THE CITY. BORROW TO PAY FOR PARKS IN ADVANCE AND THEN USED PARK DEDICATION MONEY TO PAY BACK THAT ZONE. THAT'S ANOTHER OPTION WE'RE LOOKING AT. GO LIVE DATE COULD BE SIX MONTHS FROM NOW, A YEAR FROM NOW TO HELP CURRENT DEVELOPMENTS UNDERSTAND A TRANSITION INTO ANY NEW UPDATES TO THE CODE. AND THEN I WAS STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT CITY COUNCIL CHECKS ON THIS ORDINANCE AT LEAST EVERY FIVE YEARS. SO WE'RE NOT DOING A 20 YEAR, CHECK UP ON IT AS WELL.
THIS IS MY FINAL SLIDE. MY PURPOSE TODAY IS JUST TO UNDERSTAND. IF THIS IS A DIRECTION WE WENT AHEAD IN TERMS OF OUR APPROACH. CAN RETURN AT A LATER DATE TO PUT A FINER POINT AND SOME NUMBERS AND SOME CONCEPTS. BASICALLY WE ARE LOOKING TO MODIFIED THE ACRE REQUIREMENT. ONE ACRE PER 37. ADAPTIVE PARK DEVELOPMENT FEE. CONSIDER REDUCTIONS. THAT COULD INCLUDE A PHASE OUT. PERHAPS IT'S 40 OR 50% OF FIRST YEAR, SECOND YEAR GOES DOWN TO 30% REDUCTION AFTER THAT, 20% REDUCTION AND TRANSITIONS OVER FOUR OR FIVE YEARS. AND FINALLY, DO YOU WANT TO DO A DISCOUNT AND CERTAIN PROJECT TYPES? IN TERMS OF PROCESS WE'VE MET WITH THE PARKS AND RECREATION BOARD. WE'VE MET WITH THE BIKINI DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE RECEIVED FEEDBACK FROM THAT GROUP. AND THEN NEXT STEPS. THIS IS JUST A DRAFT OUTLINE ABOUT HOW WE CAN APPROACH THE NEXT FEW MONTHS INTO THE END OF THIS YEAR. SO WITH THAT, MR MAYOR, I WILL STAND FOR ANY QUESTIONS. QUESTIONS. WELL, I MEAN, WE TALK ABOUT AFFORDABLE HOUSING WE TALK ABOUT, YOU KNOW, MAKING IT LIKE ALL THIS DOES IS JUST JACK UP THE PRICES OF HOMES AND MCKINNEY, DOESN'T IT? WHILE WE'RE ASKING DEVELOPERS TO ENSURE. THAT THEIR CONTRIBUTION IS HELPING US BUILD PARKS AROUND THEIR DEVELOPMENT. I MEAN, I'M JUST I MEAN, THE ANSWER IS YES. I MEAN, THE ANSWER IS, YEAH, A LOT BECAUSE. YOU JUST ALMOST DOUBLED IT TO ME. YOU FRANKLY YOU'VE DOUBLED IT, YOU KNOW. THEN YOU WANT TO PHASE IT IN OVER FOUR OR FIVE YEARS IS CRAZY. I MEAN, THAT'S JUST I JUST THINK THAT THAT'S WAY. OUT OF WHACK. UM I DON'T AGREE WITH. I DON'T KNOW. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE ANSWER IS, BUT I KNOW IT'S NOT DOUBLING OUR FEES. THESE DEVELOPERS UNLESS THEY'RE MULTI FAMILY AND THEN TRIPLE HIM. DON'T CARE.
CURRENTLY WHERE DOES WHERE DOES THE MONEY COME TO DO ALL THE THINGS YOU'RE DOING RIGHT NOW? GREAT QUESTIONS, SO WE'RE NOT M C. D. C PROVIDES $5.5 MILLION A YEAR THAT'S COMMITTED UNTIL 2025. AND THEN WE USE BAND MONEY TO SUPPLEMENT THE REST OF THAT. IT WAS THE ONLY TWO SHORTS IS REALLY YEAH. QUIET WHERE'S THE MULTI FAMILY LESS THAN THE SINGLE FAMILY? IT'S THE IMPACT ON OUR ON OUR PARK SYSTEM OVERALL, SO IT'S BASED ON POPULATION WITHIN MULTI FAMILY VERSUS SINGLE FAMILY. SO THE IF I'M ON THE SAME PAGE HERE. I BELIEVE YOU'RE SPEAKING ABOUT. 1600 VERSUS 2000 CORRECTLY. CORRECT, SO THE MULTI FAMILY USAGE HAS A SMALLER POPULATION AND THEREFORE SMALLER IMPACT ON THE PARKS. AND SO I HAVE TO SELL THAT NUMBER ALWAYS DERIVED. LIKE I'M GONNA ASK. A SIMILAR QUESTION ABOUT RICK WAS SAYING LIKE CURRENTLY WE USE. BONDING WE USE THE. LAND ALLOCATION. WE USE CDC MONEY AND WE. ASSUME WE HAVE IT IN THE GENERAL FUND AS WELL FOR MAINTENANCE AND STUFF, BUT WE HAVE A FUNDING STRATEGY THAT INCLUDES ALL FOUR OF THOSE, UM AND WE STILL GOT TO ONE. UM. ACRE PER 37 UNITS. SO IS MOVING THAT COST. OR TO THE FEE AND MORE LAND ALLOCATION. DOES THAT TAKE SOME OF THAT OFF OF
[02:05:01]
ENDING, CDC. GENERAL FUND WOULD NOT BECAUSE IT'S PRIMARILY MAINTENANCE OF IT, BUT. DOES IT TAKE IT OFF THE BONDING IN THE C D. C. IT DOES IN FACT, THAT IS ONE INTENTIONS HERE TO MAKE SURE THAT NEW DEVELOPMENT COMING IN IS IT'S PAYING A SHARE TO MEET THEIR DEMANDS.WHICH WOULD REDUCE THE AMOUNT THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO BACK FILLED. THE CDC OR BANDS. OH, MHM. FROM THE FINANCE STANDPOINT. WHEN WE CAN BOND FOR IT AT. 1.71 IS WHAT THEY SAID LAST WEEK. UM. OR WE CAN USE CDC DOLLARS, WHICH ARE PAID BY MCKINNEY, CITIZENS AND NON MCKINNEY CITIZENS. VERSUS THIS, IT ESSENTIALLY GOES INTO STRAIGHT INTO HOME PRICE. UM.
WHICH YOU KNOW IS GOING TO BE MORTGAGE AT A 4. RIGHT, UM. MORE ECONOMICAL THING WOULD BE TO CONTINUE TO BOND FOR IT RIGHT NOW. MM. UM. I MEAN, WE'RE JUST ESSENTIALLY SHIFTING TAXING FROM. BONDING CAPACITY INTO YOU KNOW A FEE ON A ON A FUTURE HOMEOWNER. ACTUALLY AND THE OTHER THING THAT RECOGNIZES THAT HAS NEW DEVELOPMENT COMES IN. THOSE NEW RESIDENTS PAY A SHARE INTO THE PARK DEVELOPMENT ACCOUNT. IF WE DO NOT. LEVEL SET, BUT THE REALITY IS BUT THAT HE SHOULD BE THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO CONTINUE THE BAND. THEREFORE, RESIDENTS WHO HAVE ALREADY BOUGHT A HOUSE WITH FEES BAKED INTO IT. EVENTUALLY OVER TIME WOULD BE WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE BANDS AS WELL. UNIT 40. SO IN SOME SENSE, EXISTING REGIMENTS ARE PAYING TWICE OR THREE TIMES TO ACTUALLY BUILD UP THE PARK SYSTEM. AND. I GUESS IN SOME SITUATIONS, THERE IS AN EXPECTATION THAT WE AS EXISTING RESIDENTS SHOULD PAY TWICE WHEN YOU. PROVIDE A REGIONAL PARK OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, LIKE A GAME, NESBITT TYPE FACILITY OR IMPROVEMENTS OLD SETTLERS VERSUS NEIGHBORHOOD PARK THAT I'M NEVER GOING TO GO TO IF YOU DON'T LIVE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. UM. I GUESS JUST THAT ENTIRE SHIFT. UM. SEEMS LIKE A LOT, UM, ONTO THE TO LAND AND THE, UH MCPHEE. UM RIGHT? MR GRAHAM'S AND BE CAREFUL LIKE WHEN WE TAKE INTO ACCOUNT AN IMPACT. SIMILAR WE'RE CHARGING A FEE TO A FUTURE PROPERTY OWNER FUTURE CITIZEN. WE AS. CURRENT CITIZENS SHARING THAT COST AS WELL THROUGH BONDING OR THROUGH.
YOU KNOW OUR C I P PROGRAMS. YEAH, THAT'S TRUE. I WOULD I WOULD BE CAREFUL TO CHARACTERIZE IT AS SHIFTING ALL OF THE COST TO THE DEVELOPERS. IT'S SHIFTING MORE THE COST, BUT CERTAINLY NOT ALL OF IT. THE TAXPAYERS. THE COMMUNITY AT LARGE IS STILL GOING TO HAVE TO BEAR SOME OF THE BURDEN. UM IN EXPANDING OUR PARK SERVICE. BUT THE WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO IS SHIFT MORE OF WHAT WE THINK IS A. VALID EMPIRICAL BASIS FOR SHIFTING MORE THE RESPONSIBILITY ONTO DEVELOPERS THAT ARE PLACING MORE DEMAND ON THE SYSTEM. IT'S NOT UNLIKE AND UTILITIES THEY HAVE A CAPACITY CHARGE AND USAGE CHARGE CAPACITY CHARGES FOR EXPANDING THE CAPACITY AND THEN YOU HAVE THE USAGE CHARGE FOR THE USE. IN THIS CASE, WE'RE EXPANDING THE DEMAND OR THE NEW DEVELOPMENTS, EXPANDING THE USE OR THE DEMAND ON THE PARKS, AND THAT SHOULD BE BORN BY THOSE NEWCOMERS. IF YOU WILL. AND THAT'S WHAT THE WHOLE POINT OF THIS EXERCISE IS. AND MR CROMPTON AND HELPING OUR FOLKS, UM, FIND THIS, BUT WE UNDERSTAND IT'S NOT AN EASY MESSAGE TO DELIVER. CERTAINLY. YEAH, OKAY. VERY GOOD. UM. ONE OF MY CONCERNS IS. IF YOU LOOK AT MCKINNEY IN THE FUTURE GROWTH IN MCKINNEY. BECAUSE THE LEGEND LEGISLATURE DID WHAT THEY DID. AND TOOK US TOOK THE POWER OF ANNEXATION AWAY. THE CITY. CITY HAS NO TOOL IN WHICH TO GO GET THESE LANDOWNERS TO COME INTO THE CITY. SO IF I'M A LANDOWNER, AND YOU WANT ME TO COME IN THE CITY. NOW, ALL OF A SUDDEN, YOU'VE DOUBLED THE PARK FEE. AND WHAT ARE THEY GONNA DO? I'M NOT GOING TO COME IN THE CITY. SO WE'VE GOT A LIMITED AMOUNT OF TOOLS TO WORK WITH. TO GET PEOPLE TO COME IN THE CITY. AND IT'S YOU KNOW, I'M NOT. I'M NOT. ADAMANTLY AGAINST IT. I'M WILLING TO LISTEN. I'M WILLING TO, YOU KNOW, TALK THROUGH IT, AND MAYBE THERE'S A NUMBER WE COME UP WITH. IT'S KIND OF IN BETWEEN. MY CONCERN IS WE'VE GOT BILLIONS AND BILLIONS OF DOLLARS OUT THERE IN TAX BASE.
[02:10:02]
WE HAVE NO CONTROL OVER. WE NEED TO LOOK AT THAT AND FIGURE OUT WAYS TO GET THESE PEOPLE IN THE CITY BECAUSE THAT'S OUR FUTURE. THAT'S THAT'S THAT'S GOING TO BRING IN THE NEXT WAVE OF TAX BASE AND TAXES FOR THE CITY. SO THAT'S ONE OF MY CONCERNS. I. I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO DO. AND I'M TRYING TO THINK HOW WE ALL GET THERE WITH WITH THIS GROUP. THE ONE THING THAT I KNOW THAT WE'VE MIMICKED MOST OF THIS OFF OF FRISCO CORRECT. PARTS.CORRECT PART. DID WE TAKE THE COMPONENT ON HERE FROM THE MULTI FAMILY OFFER FRISCO? YES.
THEY'RE THE NUMBER ONE IN THE COUNTRY, SO WE SHOULDN'T FOLLOW ANYTHING THEY'RE DOING ON ON THE MULTI FAMILY CONCEPT. THAT'S JUST MY TWO CENTS. I KNOW WHY DEVELOPERS CHOOSE CITIES BECAUSE OF THAT, BECAUSE IT'S CHEAPER TO GET THEM THERE. I MEAN, WHAT IF WE FLIP THAT? AND WE LOOKED AT AN OPPOSITE OPPONENT COMPONENT FOR THAT PORTION. WE WANT THE HOMES. I MEAN, I THINK EVERYBODY WANTS HOMES IN MCKINNEY. THE BUILDER. WE WANT THE BUILDERS TO COME.
WE WANT THE COMMUNITIES TO COME. I WANT THE HOMES. I KNOW WHAT I WANT, AND I THINK EVERYONE IS EXPRESSED. WE WANT THE HOMES. WE WERE NUMBER TWO IN THE WHOLE COUNTRY WITH MULTI FAMILY HOUSING RIGHT NOW IN THE MARKET. I THINK WE CAN SCALE THAT BACK A LITTLE BIT AND GIVE OUR BUILDERS THAT WANT TO COME HERE SOME INCENTIVE AND IF THEY WANT TO BUILD A MULTI FAMILY, THEN STICK IT TO HIM. AND I HAVE NO PROBLEM, SAYING THAT ON RECORD YEAH. MR HAUSER, MIND HAVING, AND SHE JUST SAID I APPRECIATE YOUR COMMENT, BUT MISTER PRESSURE COUNCIL MEMBER WE DO HAVE SOME LANES TO STAY IN AND THERE HAS TO BE A RATIONAL BASIS BETWEEN WHAT WE'RE CHARGING. UNIT UH, THE USE OF THE PARK BY A LIVING UNIT, WHICH IS WHAT THESE ARE BASED ON AND SO. WHILE WE MAY BE ABLE TO TWEAK THAT, OR WILL OR WILL FIND HERSELF LITIGATION.
IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE SAYING? YES, SIR. OKAY SO WE HAVE TO. WE HAVE TO BE SO WHAT'S OUR BOUNDARY? WELL, I CAN'T TELL YOU A NUMBER TODAY, BUT I DO HEAR YOUR SENTIMENT, AND WE CAN LOOK AT WHETHER THAT CAN GO UP MORE. HOW MUCH MORE AND BUT I DO UNDERSTAND. WHAT'S YOUR POSITION IS BUT WE DO HAVE TO EVALUATE HOW MUCH A GIVEN LIVING UNIT PUTS ON THE DEMAND FOR PARKS, BECAUSE IF I'M LOOKING AT THIS, I WOULDN'T BUILD HOMES. I WOULD BUILD PERMITS. WOULD LOOK FOR WAYS TO FIGURE OUT A WAY BECAUSE THERE YOU'RE GETTING THE BETTER DEAL THERE. I MEAN, THAT'S JUST MY LITTLE MIND SO AND I UNDERSTAND WHAT JUST JUSTIN SAYING AND EVERYONE ELSE IS SAYING ON THIS, BUT I DO UNDERSTAND YOU WANT TO DO. YOU WON'T HIT THE HOMEOWNER TWICE. YOU KNOW, UM AND AGAIN, THESE ARE BASED ON NEW GROWTH, THE DEMAND THAT NEW GROWTH.
PUTTING ON THE PARK SYSTEM AND SO THE AMOUNT THAT WE'RE COLLECTING AND YOU GUYS GET TO SET THE FEE AND THAT'S WHAT MIKE'S TELLING YOU. YOU GET TO SET WHATEVER THE NUMBER YOU WANT IT TO BE. WE DO THAT WITH REGULAR IMPACT. THESE TWO IF YOU REMEMBER WE SAID THERE'S A CALCULATION FOR THE MAX FEE THAT YOU CAN CHARGE FOR. SEWER WATER, A ROADWAY. THEN YOU FOLKS SET THAT FEE AND YOU HAVE SAID IT UNDER THAT NUMBER. SO AGAIN, I DO HEAR YOU WERE GOING TO GIVE YOU MORE DATA ON HOW MUCH ATTITUDE YOU WOULD HAVE IN THE IN THE MULTI FAMILY. CAN WE, UH. MY GUESS IS THAT THE SENTIMENT? WE ALL WAY ACROSS, IS TO IDENTIFY WHAT IS THAT NUMBER? ON MULTI FAMILY. STEP. TO BE ABLE TO MAKE DECISIONS. UM NOT NOT DOUBT OF OUT OF EMOTION. BUT WHAT CAN WE DO? AND. DOES IT? DOES IT MAKE SENSE TOGETHER? ABSOLUTELY AGAIN. IT'S WHETHER IT'S DISPROPORTIONATE. TO THAT UNIT. THAT'S REALLY WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT. IT'S THE IT'S THE FAIRNESS OR THE. RATIONAL BASIS BETWEEN THE FEE AND THE NUMBER OF LIVING UNITS THAT ARE IN THAT PARTICULAR APARTMENT WITH THAT PARTICULAR HOME. MADE OF THE OTHER DIRECTION THAT WE NEED FROM THE COUNCIL. NOT TONIGHT, NECESSARILY, BUT WE'RE GOING TO NEED IS WHAT'S THE PHASE IN PERIOD? ALONG ANOTHER WORDS, THE OVERLAY THAT MR KOWSKI REFERRED TO IN TERMS OF A DISCOUNT. HOW HOW DEEP OF A DISCOUNT DO YOU APPLY, AND OVER WHAT TERM WOULD YOU HAVE THAT. SO THAT KIND OF, UM, FEEDBACK OR INPUT WOULD BE VERY HELPFUL TO US, AND WE'LL CERTAINLY PRESENT SOME OPTIONS AS WE COME BACK AND PRESENT ADDITIONAL INFORMATION THAT YOU'RE REQUESTING TONIGHT. YOU'RE ASSUMING THAT WE AGREED TO INCREASE IT. THAT'S RIGHT. WHAT WE WOULD I DON'T THINK THERE'S AN ASSUMPTION IT IF YOU WANT TO, IF YOU CAN WANT TO CONSIDER IT AND YOU NEED TO CONSIDER THE WHOLE PICTURE AND THAT IS THAT YOU CAN APPLY THE DISCOUNT OVERLAY, SO TO SPEAK. TO THAT AS YOU MAKE YOUR DECISION. AT THE END OF THE DAY, THE COUNCIL COULD SAY WE'RE NOT GONNA CHANGE ANYTHING. CERTAINLY.
[02:15:06]
SKILLS. YOU NEED TO KNOW WHAT YOUR OPTIONS ARE AS A POLICY MAKING BODY. WE SAY THAT A DIFFERENT WAY AND HELP YOU OUT, MR ROGERS. THINK WHAT MIKE AND THE STAFF. DR CROFTON. WE'RE PROPOSING THE METHODOLOGY. CHANGE YOU CAN THEN SET A FEE THAT WON'T BE ANY DIFFERENT THAN TODAY. IF YOU WANT TO. SO THAT IF YOUR POSITION IS THAT YOU LIKE OUR FEE AS IT IS FOR A GIVEN HOUSE OR GIVEN AN APARTMENT. YOU CAN SET IT THERE. BUT WITH AN ORDINANCE CHANGE WILL HAVE THE METHODOLOGY AVAILABLE TO ADDRESS CHANGES INCREASE IT SOMEDAY. THAT'S YOUR CALL. SO THAT THAT'S. DON'T THINK MIKE IS ADVOCATING A PARTICULAR NUMBER TODAY, BUT HE'S ADVOCATING A CHANGE IN THE METHODOLOGY FOR WHAT WE CHARGE HAVE. EXCUSE ME HOW WE CHARGE EXCUSE ME. I'LL GO BACK TO THAT. THAT'S A GREAT POINT. MARK. UM.SO THAT POLICY REDUCED BY 40% THAT'S AN ARBITRARY NUMBER WE PICKED ONLY BECAUSE FRISCO HAD THAT WE PUT IT IN HERE. JUST COMPARE APPLES TO APPLES. THAT COULD BE REDUCED BY 60. OR WHATEVER NUMBER WE THINK IS BEST. FOR OUR MARKET CONDITIONS, THE SAME WITH THE OVER THE OTHER OVERLAY REDUCTION POTENTIAL 50% FURTHER USES SO EVERYTHING BELOW THAT RED LINE.
IS OUR OPPORTUNITY TO ADJUST FOR MCKINNEY. EVERYTHING ABOVE THAT, AS I SAID BEFORE, IS BASED UPON MATH IS DEFENSIBLE IN COURT, SO THAT'S OUR KIND OF OUR THRESHOLD. SO, MIKE, I THINK. TAKING THAT ASIDE FOR A SECOND, BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY IT HAS TO BE DEFENSIBLE IN COURT.
I THINK THE RESPONSE UP HERE WOULD BE DIFFERENT IF THAT NUMBER ON MULTI FAMILY IS GOING UP. MORE AND SINGLE FAMILY WAS NOT UNDERSTAND. VERY CAN'T JUST ARBITRARILY DECIDE THAT I GET THAT. BUT BUT THERE IS SOME LATITUDE FROM WHAT WE'RE SEEING RIGHT NOW IS WHAT I AM UNDERSTANDING RIGHT? GOING TO HAVE TO GET LISTENING TO YOU TODAY IS VERY HELPFUL. NO. YOU MAY WANT TO CHARGE THE MAX FEE ON MOUNT MULTI, AND YOU MAY WANT TO REDUCE THE RESIDENTIAL FEET. ALL RIGHT? AND THAT PROBLEM WHEN I KNOW THAT'S WHY I THINK ALWAYS THINKS I TALKING ABOUT MOTION, WHICH I DO. NO, NO, I WASN'T. I WASN'T REFERRING TO YOU AS TO REFER TO ALL OF US KNOW ALL OF US. TOTALLY FINE, BUT THAT'S WHERE I'M. I'M THINKING OUR BUILDERS WANT TO COME HERE AND RESIDENTS AND EVERYONE ELSE WILL READ THAT THAT WE'RE DOING MORE DUE DILIGENCE ON THAT ASPECT, AND NOT JUST GOING ONE WAY UNDERSTAND? AGAIN. THIS IS NOT EASY STUFF, PARTICULARLY LATE IN THE DAY, AND THIS IS LIKE. THE OTHER IMPACT FEES IN MANY RESPECTS. YOU DO A CALCULATION ON WHAT? HOW MUCH STUFF YOU NEED TO BUY. WHICH PEOPLE ARE GOING TO USE IT, WHICH PEOPLE DRIVE THE DEMAND FOR IT. IT IS A LOT OF MATH, AND THEN YOU GET THE PRIVILEGE OF PICKING THE RIGHT DO YOU CHARGE? KOWSKI USER RUN A FRIEND WITH YOU. IS HE GOING TO SPEAK WITH US? DR CROMPTON IS HERE TO ANSWER ANY SPECIFIC QUESTIONS. DR.
CROMPTON, ANYTHING YOU WANT TO TOUCH ON YOU HAVE TO YEAH. THE ONLY BRITISH ACTING THAT I'VE EVER MET. JUST WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THE METHODOLOGY WE'VE GOT IS THE STATE OF THE ART. IT HAS CHANGED A LOT. THE U. S SUPREME COURT IN THE 19 NINETIES LAID OUT SOME RULES. AND THEY, THEY SAID, WE HAD TO HAVE PROACTIVELY CITY COUNCIL HAD TO PROACTIVELY FIGURE OUT HOW MUCH IT WOULD DEMAND WOULD BE PLACED ON THE SYSTEM BY NEW PEOPLE COMING IN. WHEN THEY SAID THAT THEY DIDN'T SAY HOW TO DO IT. AND I DIDN'T KNOW HOW YOU FIGURED OUT THE DEMAND BEFORE THEY ARRIVED. THE ONLY SENSIBLE WAY THAT WE CAME UP WITH WAS TO ASSUME THAT PEOPLE COMING INTO THE CITY. WORK WOULD WANT THE SAME STANDARDS THAT EXISTED IN THE CITY. AND SO THAT IS GENERALLY BEEN THE RULE. WE HAVE ADAPTED OVER THE LAST 20 YEARS OR SO OF DOING THESE KINDS OF ORDINANCES. THE MISSING THE OTHER ELEMENT THAT HAS COME IN, WHICH IS THE PART DEVELOPMENT FEE HAS COMING IN THE LAST 20 YEARS. ALSO AND THERE ARE 73 CITIES IN TEXAS THAT HAVE THESE ORDINANCES NOW AND ONE THIRD OF THEM ABOUT FACILITY. THESE ORDINANCES NOW HAVE A PART DEVELOPMENT FEELING AND THE THINKING WAS THAT IT'S NO USE ACQUIRING LAND. WHAT IT DOES IS SIT THERE, BUT YOU DON'T HAVE ANY MONEY TO DEVELOP IT. SO THE COURTS HAVE ALLOWED THAT DEVELOPMENT FREE TO COME IN AS WELL. THIS IS THIS IS VERY SIMILAR TO IMPACT FEES EXCEPT THE IMPACT FEES THE STATE LAYS DOWN VERY SPECIFIC RULES. HOW DO YOU DO THEM? AND IT'S VERY, VERY CUT AND DRIED. IN IN SINCE THIS COMES OUT OF THE OUT OF THE DEVELOPMENT AUDIENCES, THERE'S NO RULES AND WHAT YOU HAVE TO WHAT WE HAVE TO GO ON IS WHAT THE COURTS HAVE SAID. WHAT THE COURTS HAVE SAID IS THEY'VE RULED WHAT IS
[02:20:02]
ILLEGAL. THEY NEVER TELL YOU WHAT IS ACTUALLY LEGAL. AND SO OVER TIME YOU HAVE TO INTERPRET IT. BUT THIS IS THE INTERPRETATION OF WHAT THE COURTS HAVE ALLOWED TO THIS 0.1 FINAL POINT PUTTING ON MY POLITICAL HAT IS THAT ALL OF US IN RUN POLITICALLY, I'VE RUN FOR ELECTIONS NOW PREVAILED IN THEM, BUT. EACH TIME WE RUN ON A FAT FORM OF FISCAL CONSERVATISM. AND WE ALL DO IN TEXAS, AND THIS IS IN MY MIND A PHYSICALLY CONSERVATIVE STRATEGY IN THE SENSE THAT WE DO NOT PUT THE BURDEN ONTO OUR TAXPAYERS. WE PUT THEM ON TO PEOPLE WHO ARE MOVING INTO THE CITY. WE DO IT IN A PROPORTIONATE WAY, WHICH WERE ACQUIRED TO DO BY LAW. AND WHEN WE LOOK AT TAXPAYERS PAYING THE BILL, THEY'RE PAYING THE BILL ULTIMATELY THROUGH PROPERTY TAXES, WHICH IS A REGRESSIVE TAX AND HURTS LOW INCOME PEOPLE, THE MOST AS A RESULT OF BEING EXPRESSIVE TAX. AND YET MANY OF THE HOMES THAT ARE BEING BILLS OR PROGRESSIVE, THEY'RE THEY'RE EXPENSIVE HOMES. AND SO YOU HAVE SORT OF THIS. LOW INCOME IN A SENSE SUPPORTING HIGHER INCOME KINDS OF HOMES. AND SO YOU KNOW THAT THERE IS ONLY THREE SOURCES OF ONLY THREE THINGS THAT CAN HAPPEN WITH PARKS NUMBER ONE. IS THAT WE? WE DO NOTHING IN WHICH MEANS THAT YOU GET A LOWER. UH, LOWER STANDARD IF YOU LIKE. SO, BUT THAT IS REDUCED QUALITY OF LIFE. IF YOU WILL. NUMBER TWO IS WE USE TAXPAYERS MONEY AND NUMBER THREE AS YOU MAKE NEW GROWTH PAY FOR ITSELF. THE CONCERN IS QUITE RIGHT. LEAVE THAT YOU PRICE PEOPLE OUT OF THE WHOLE MARKET TO DO TO AVOID THAT YOU PUT IN A CLOSET SAYS IF THIS IS LOW INCOME HOUSING. THEY'RE ACCEPTED FROM HER EXEMPTED FROM THE AUDIENCE WHEN YOU DEFINE LOW INCOME HOUSING, AND IF IT'S EXACT WAY, THEN THEY DON'T PAY THE FEE. IF AT SOME FUTURE POINT, THEY MOVE FROM LOW INCOME TO THE REGULAR. AT THAT TIME, THEY WOULD HAVE TO PAY THE FEE, BUT THEY DON'T INITIALLY SO THAT'S THE WAY THAT WAS DRAFTED. COULD IT BE WHEN YOU USE THE TERM? LOW INCOME? UM, COULD IT BE AN. DO WE HAVE THE, UH, LATITUDE TO HAVE AN ARBITRARY NUMBER? UH FOR EXAMPLE, WE'RE WANTING TO ENCOURAGE DEVELOPMENT OF HOMES OF $250,000.300,000 DOLLARS IN BELOW. COULD IT. WE HAVE THE ABILITY TO SAY THAT HOMES THAT.$300,000 AND BELOW OR BELOW THE MEDIAN PRICE OR WHATEVER. WE HAVE AN ARBITRARY NUMBER WE HAVE. THERE IS PRETTY I WOULD SAY WE HAVE THE ABILITY LEGAL LEAVE. THERE ARE A NUMBER OF ORDINANCE ABILITIES, IN FACT, HAVE THAT OWN SIN, AND THEY USED WHAT THEY CALLED. AM I OR SOME SINGLE FAMILY? YEAH. WE COULD IF WE BECAUSE WE USE A RATIONAL STANDARD, SO WE USE A RATIONAL SAYING THAT WE'RE TRYING TO INCENTIVIZE HOMEOWNERSHIP. UH, I DON'T THINK THAT ANYONE APPEAR MYSELF INCLUDED IS INTERESTED IN GIVING A REDUCING 40% 50% 20% ON THE MULTI FAMILY SIDE. IT'S A IT'S A MUCH MORE PROFITABLE. BUSINESS THESE DAYS. UM SO I THINK ONE OTHER THING, SIR, IF I MAY TO ADJUST THE DJ RULE, MANY OF THE AUDIENCES DO HAVE IN THAT PEOPLE NEED TJ ARE REQUIRED TO PAY THE FEE. THAT'S THE POLICY ISSUE THAT YOU ALL WOULD MAKE, BUT THAT IS QUITE COMMON AMONGST WE HAVE THAT ABILITY. THE PARK USAGE FEE.
YEAH, I DON'T AGREE WITH THAT. UH AND I LIKE HIS ANSWER. YEAH, I THINK THERE'S MORE PERIL THERE THEN I'M RECOMMENDING, BUT. I KNOW THAT HE TAKES THE POSITION, BUT SO I'M I'M GONNA TAKE A GUESS. DISAGREE I'M GOING TO GUESS THAT MOST MOST UP HERE WOULD BE IN FAVOR OF OR BE MORE IN FAVOUR ANYWAY AND BE. LOOK MORE FAVORABLY ON MULTI FAMILY NOT DECREASING BUT BEING WHAT WE CAN JUSTIFY IT TO BE, AND IT'S ON THE MAXIMUM, UM, BEING A WAVE. THOSE WAIVE FEES AT LEAST TO SOME GREAT EXTENT ON. OWNERSHIP PRODUCT THAT'S AT A CERTAIN WHATEVER THAT POINT WE CAN DECIDE THAT WHETHER IT'S BELOW MEDIAN 2 50 WHATEVER. AND THEN. AND WITH THE WITH THE MORE EXPENSIVE HOMES, THAT'S A WHOLE DIFFERENT ANIMAL, AND I DON'T THINK THE CONCERN IS GREAT WITH THAT. IS THAT PRETTY MUCH GOT EITHER. EVERYONE TO KIND OF GET THERE ON THAT. SO CAN WE DO THAT? MIKE CAN WE WILL WORK ON THAT, SIR. YES AND SO MAXIMUM MULTI FAMILY. IS THAT BE DEFENSIVELY? AND THEN. WILL ARRIVE AT THE OTHER NUMBERS IN THE NEXT PERSON RIGHT NOW, YOU KNOW, I MEAN, IF YOU DIDN'T HAVE THE REDUCTION, IT GOES FROM $2000 TO 46 93.
OKAY, LET'S JUST DO THAT. AND SO YOU WANT TO ARE BASICALLY AND THEN THE PROPOSED REDUCTION TAKES IT FROM 2000 AND 2800, WHICH IS STILL 40. LOT BETTER THAN THE 4600 WHICH IS 135. AND
[02:25:02]
THAT'S WHY I SAY, EVEN SAYING OH, WE CAN, YOU KNOW. GET RID OF THE DISCOUNT IN FOUR OR FIVE YEARS. THAT'S JUST REALLY NOT. I MEAN, I DON'T SEE THAT HAPPENING. I MEAN, I WOULDN'T SUPPORT THAT IN ANY WAY, SHAPE OR FORM. I WOULD. I WOULD SAY THAT'S A YEAR BY YEAR. AND AND THAT'S THAT, AND FRANKLY, THAT'S WHAT WORRIES ME ABOUT HAVING SUCH A HIGH ONE IS EVENTUALLY THAT'S THE GOAL IS TO GET IT TO THAT, AND I'M JUST LIKE, WELL, THAT'S REALLY SHOULDN'T BE A GOAL OR SHOULD. AND TO CHARGE 46 ALMOST $4700 PER HOME. IS JUST VERSUS 2000.I MEAN, I KNOW WE NEED AN INCREASE, BUT I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT NEED 100. BUT I DO THINK IT'S AN AND I GET THAT, BUT I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT. REMEMBER AT LEAST BASED ON WHAT YOU'RE SAYING THAT WE HAVE TO GET THERE ONE WAY OR THE OTHER, BECAUSE THAT'S THE COST. SO IT'S NOT REALLY ARE WE. ARE WE CHOOSING TO JUST DO THAT? UNILATERALLY IT'S IF WE DON'T DO THAT, THEN ALL OF US CURRENT TAXPAYERS HAVE TO PAY MORE TAX CORRECT WELL, SAID. RIGHT, SO THAT THE NEXT WE'RE IN THE QUALITY OF WHAT WERE THE PRODUCT WE'RE TRYING TO PUT OUT THERE WHAT MIKE WANTS AND I KNOW THAT THE CITIZENS THE BODY WINGS AND SUCH LIKE THAT THEY COST. WELL, WE JUST WANT TO FLAT GREEN SPACE. THAT. CAN JUST DO WE WANT THE STATE OF THE ART TO BRING PEOPLE HERE. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO GET THERE. THIS GIVES YOU THE TOOL TO DECIDE WHETHER YOU WANT TO USE BOND FUNDS. M C D. C, HOW YOU GET TO CHANGE THIS FEE AS YOU FEEL NECESSARY. TO UTILIZE OTHER BUCKETS TO BUILD PARKS. SO. BY ESTABLISHING A MAX FEET.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO SET IT. BUT YOU AT LEAST HAVE THAT OPPORTUNITY TO EVALUATE OTHER BUCKETS TO DO THINGS. FOR $4000 ON A 850,000 AT HOME IS DIFFERENT THAN $4000 ON A $250,000 CORRECT? YES SO I THINK WE ALL AGREE THAT THAT'S THE DIRECTION THAT WILL GET MORE THAT INFORMATION. MULTI FAMILY CAP. DEFENSIBLE. UM OUR FLOOR. WHATEVER YOU WANT TO WHAT'S THAT? STILL NOT COMPLETELY YEAH, JUST TO HAVE MORE DISK, BUT THEN WE'LL HAVE A NUMBER AND THEN WE CAN HAVE MORE DISCUSSION. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THIS IS VERY HIGH LEVEL MACRO, BUT LIKE. HOW MUCH DO YOU EXPECT TO RAISE FROM THIS OVER A PERIOD OF TIME VERSUS.
WHAT IS THE EXPECTED EXPENDITURE IN THE PARKS THAT THAT YOU'VE GOT SO THAT WE KNOW WHAT WE'RE KIND OF WHAT WERE OFFSET IN HERE? AND THEN I JUST HAD TWO OTHER QUICK COMMENTS.
UM THE PHASED PAYMENT METHODOLOGY THAT YOU TALKED ABOUT IN THE ADMINISTRATION SEEMS LIKE A DISASTER. AS A AS A LENDER AND A LIEN HOLDER. WOULD NOT BE HAPPY WITH ALL OF A SUDDEN. KNOWING THAT THERE WAS AN UNKNOWN PAYMENT TO A CITY OUT THERE THAT COULD CREATE A SUPERIOR LANE. AND THEN I WOULD. PRIVATE AMENITY DISCOUNT. DO WE DO THAT TODAY? WE DO. CAN YOU GIVE SOME MORE INFORMATION ON THAT? AT SOME POINT, WE'LL DEAL WITH HIM.
YEP. JOBS. YOU SAID. WE JUST HAVE TO APPLY RATIONAL BASIS. SAY IT HAD BEEN IMPOSSIBLE FOR US. ALRIGHT AND DR COMPTON, UH DR COMPTON. I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU FOR COMING UP. AND THANKS FOR YOUR SERVICE TO THE PEOPLE OF COLLEGE STATION. THANK YOU. SHOULD YOU BEING HERE? THANK YOU. ONE QUICK QUESTION IS ALAN PLANO, MELISSA, AND WHEN WE LOOK AT THEIR FEES, HOW DO WE COMPARE? HOW DO THEY COMPARE TO WORK? FRISCO'S DOING RIGHT NOW? THEY'RE ALL OVER THE PLACE, MA'AM. SO. FOR INSTANCE, PLANO DOES NOT HAVE A PARKLAND DE BECAUSE THEY ARE A DIFFERENT STATE OF EVOLUTION, SO THEY'RE ALL PARK DEVELOPMENT FEE HEAVY AND SO, UH, COMPARING APPLES, APPLES IS TOUGH. THAT'S WHY FRISCO WAS THE BEST EXAMPLE I CAN SHOW TONIGHT. ONE MORE BLOOD FOR DR CROMPTON, BECAUSE WHEN WE WERE IN LITIGATION A COUPLE YEARS AGO ON PARK FEES, HE ASSISTED US THROUGHOUT THAT PROCESS HELPED US A LOT GOT THOSE CASES SETTLED. AND. FROM THERE. WE USED HIM TO BUILD THIS, SO I JUST WANT TO THANK YOU. THE PROBLEM. RIGHT. WE WILL TURN INTO EXECUTIVE SESSION BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE ANYONE SCHEDULED TO SPEAK IN CITIZEN COMMENTS. NOBODY SIGNED UP. WE'RE DEFERRING THAT TOO. SIX. LAST SIXTH, AND WE'RE GOING TO MOVE INTO EXECUTIVE SESSION. UM THANK YOU. ACCORDANCE WITH
