[00:00:05]

HAVE A QUORUM BECAUSE WE HAVE COUNCILMAN PHILLIPS ON THE PHONE. YOU WERE THERE, COUNCILMAN. YES, SIR. I AM MR MERRICK. SO WE DO HAVE QUORUM AT THIS TIME IS HERE SOMEWHERE.

WHICH ONE OF YOU HERE I SAW. WELL, QUORUM ON THE DIET. THERE WE GO. AND. IT IS THREE O'CLOCK IN THE AFTERNOON IS TUESDAY, AUGUST 3RD 2021 WERE IN COUNCIL CHAMBERS AT 2 22 NORTH TENNESSEE STREET IN MCKINNEY, TEXAS. THE FIRST ITEM OF BUSINESS IS PUBLIC COMMENTS ON

[PUBLIC COMMENTS ON AGENDA ITEMS]

AGENDA ITEMS AND I DO NOT SHOW ANY. SO WE'LL MOVE ON TO DISCUSS REGULAR MEETING AGENDA

[DISCUSS REGULAR MEETING AGENDA ITEMS for the City Council Regular Meeting to be held Tuesday, August 3, 2021 at 6:00p.m. ]

ITEMS. NO. ONE OF THE. ITEMS THAT WE'RE GOING TO WANT TO DISCUSS, AND NOW DRE HAD EXPRESSED THIS EARLIER. IS THE RE ZONE. SO WHEN SHE GETS HERE, SHE'S RUNNING JUST A FEW MINUTES LATER. THINK IS THERE ANY OTHER ITEM ON THE REGULAR AGENDA. THAT WOULD LIKE TO BE.

YEAH, ON THE SPORT COMMISSIONS ELIGIBILITY, THE 21 0679. YES, SIR. WE HAVE THAT JUST ON CONSENT, OR WE'RE NOT DISCUSSING THAT AT ALL. OR IS THAT JUST AND HE'S WE CAN ABSOLUTELY. PULL IT DOWN. MR MAYOR PRO TEM. WE JUST. THOUGHT IT WAS RATHER RATHER ROUTINE.

BUT IT DOES DOESN'T HAVE TO BE, SIR. WE CAN PULL IT DOWN. AND THE SUBSTANTIVE, AS YOU KNOW, IS TO CHANGE THE POLICY TO ALLOW ALTERNATES TO BE IN CLOSED SESSION. IN THEIR RESPECTIVE BOARDS. OKAY, SO THAT'S THE ONLY CHANGE ONLY THAT'S THE ONLY CHANGE. OKAY PRESENTLY, THEY DON'T AND SO THERE WAS A REQUEST BY COUNCIL MEMBER BELLER AND FILTERS TO CHANGE THAT POLICY TO ALLOW. ALTERNATES BECAUSE IN THE END HE SEEN THE CDC. WE HAVE. QUITE A FEW ONGOING PROJECTS THAT MAY NEED THE ALTERNATES AND THEY THOUGHT THAT WAS A BETTER PROCESS. OKAY THAT'S ALL I WAS. I WAS WONDERING THAT. SO WE'LL COME BACK WHEN AND THEN I HAVE SOME OTHER ONES. GO AHEAD. UM. 0682 ON THE BASICALLY ON THESE INSURANCE THINGS THAT THE CITY DOES. IS CONSIDERED ACT ON A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO A CONTRACT WITH CIGNA HEALTH AND LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY FOR THE THIRD PARTY ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES FOR EMPLOYEE MEDICAL PRESCRIPTIVE CORRUPTION, DRUGS AND DENTAL BENEFITS, RIGHT AND THEN AND THEN THE OTHER ONE IS JUST ONE WITH LINCOLN LIFE AND I GUESS, SUPPLEMENTAL LIFE INSURANCE AND STUFF LIKE THAT. DO THOSE GO OUT FOR BID AND WE? HOW'S THAT PROCURED? YEAH WE WENT THROUGH A BIT PROCESS AND IF I MAY, COUNCILMAN, LET ME JUST USE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO THANK MY TEAM FROM PURCHASING. ACTUALLY MANAGED THAT INTERNAL PROCESS FOR US, SUSAN LEMOS AND THEN LESSER PATROL. OKAY, RIGHT? BUT CAN I ASK TO SPEAK INTO THE MICROPHONE? HE CHARLIE CAN'T HEAR YOU. UM, LET'S SEE. YOU'RE FINE. YOU'RE FINE. THE ONLY WHEN YOU TURNED TO SPEAK TO THEM, OKAY? YEAH, BASICALLY, YES. THEY WENT OUT TO BID WE HAD. A THREE YEAR CONTRACT WITH SIGNAL START WITH THE HELP PLANS. UH THAT CONTRACT WAS PRETTY MATURE WAY. CAM TERMED BECAUSE OUR INTER LOCAL AGREEMENT WITH THROUGH THE CITY OF DALLAS. WAS UH, WAS COUNSELED WHEN THAT LAST WENT OUT TO BED. SO WE WERE FORCED INTO THE MARKET. IN SPITE OF EVERYTHING ELSE WE HAD GOING GOING ON. WE JUST KNEW THAT WE COULDN'T RENEW. SO WE WENT THROUGH THAT PROCESS. ONLY TWO FIRMS SUBMITTED A BID. IN FACT, I DID AT SOME POINT, ASK THE OUR OUR CONSULTANTS TO DO MORE LIKE IT POSTMODERN ON WHY, OF ALL THE COMPANIES THAT COMPANIES THAT WE SENT OUT OR NOTIFIED ABOUT THE BIG PROCESS? ONLY TWO WHAT IT CAME BACK WITH. WAS THAT YOU KNOW, YOU LOOK AT HOW WE RUN OUR PROGRAM AND HOW WE MANAGE IT THAT CLEARLY ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES ONLY CONTRACT, WHICH IS REALLY WHAT WE'RE OKAY, RIGHT. WE PUT IN PLACE A NUMBER OF THINGS THAT ALLOW US TO RUN THE PROGRAM. WHERE. ANY COMPANY THAT UNDERSTANDS HOW PLAN IS DESIGNED AND STRUCTURED CAN ACTUALLY COME REALLY LOVE.

SIGNAL HAPPENS TO BE ONE OF THE ONE OF THE VENDORS AT LEAST MARKET. THAT HAS COME OUT THAT THAT ASPECT OF THE MARKET AND SOMETHING TERMS OF S. OH YES. ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES ONLY.

SO THEY'RE RATE CAN REALLY WAY ON THAT. WHAT THEY SOME POINTED RIGHT. SO WHEN YOU GO THROUGH THE PACKET, WE WERE ABLE TO SHOW THE DELTAS YOU KNOW, IN EACH COMPONENT AND ALL THE

[00:05:03]

THINGS THAT WE ANALYZED. THERE WERE FIVE KEY THINGS THAT WE CANNOT LOOKED AT. WHEN WE LOOK AT, I THINK OUR CITY MANAGER WELL, YOU KNOW, PUT THIS THAT THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST EXPENSIVE SINGLE ITEM ON OUR. GENERAL FUND. SURE, SO WE NOT TO SAY THAT IF IT IS CHEAPER OR NOT, THAT EXPENSIVE WILL TAKE IT LIGHTLY. BUT WE DID OUR DILIGENCE. WE LOOK AT THE DISRUPTION. BECAUSE WE ARE LOOKING AT MOVING. FROM WHAT YOU HAVE TO ANOTHER NETWORK TO HAPPEN. I'M NOT ADMINISTRATOR. GOT TO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT. THOSE INDIVIDUALS EMPLOYEES WHO ARE CURRENTLY AND RULED IN THE PLANET ABOUT 7 1078 AND THEN THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS. SO WE'RE LOOKING AT AROUND 2600. WHAT DOCTORS THEY GO TO WHAT HOSPITALS AND THE WAY WE GO ABOUT THAT IS TO LOOK AT VOLUME OF CLAIMS SPADE. AND THEN MAYBE THE TOP 250 PHYSICIANS AND THEN THE TOP 50 HOSPITALS, AND THEN WE RUN THE DISRUPTION ANALYSIS AND THEN DETERMINE WHAT THAT WOULD LOOK AT. NOW I WILL TELL YOU THAT WHEN YOU ARE MOVING FROM WHEN YOU'RE GOING THROUGH THIS PROCESS, THE NETWORK YOU CURRENTLY HAVE. CURRENTLY TENDS TO COME AHEAD BECAUSE THEY HAVE THE NETWORK THAT YOU CURRENTLY HAVE. SO IT TENDS TO BE 100% AND THEN YOU'RE A PERSON VYING FOR THAT BUSINESS. THIS CANNOT STRUGGLING COME IN. MAYBE 78 80, SO BELLA DID PRETTY WELL, BUT NOT THAT NOT NEARLY ENOUGH, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN MASSIVE DISRUPTION. OUR MEMBERS AND THEN THE OTHER THING. WE LOOK AT THIS COST. THE TOTAL COST IN TERMS OF FEES WE PAY AND ALL THAT. AS I SAID EARLIER. CIGNA HAS REALLY DONE WELL IN THIS ARENA. SO YOU KNOW, HAVING LOOKED AT ALL THAT. WE MADE THE RECOMMENDATION THAT WE STAY WITH WILL CONTINUE WITH SIGNAL.

OKAY, RIGHT. OKAY, THAT'S ALL I HAD, RIGHT? THANK YOU. THANK YOU. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. THE ITEM.

WHAT'S DISCUSSED THERE IS LIFE INSURANCE. DO IT? UH SORRY MAYOR TRACK THERE. THE LIFE INSURANCE IS A SEPARATE ITEMS. DO YOU? YOU WANT TO HEAR? I CAN JUST USE ONE MINUTE TO COVER IT. I'M GOOD. OKAY. OKAY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. I THINK THE REASON CHESTNUT. YES, I HAVE QUESTIONS. IS JENNIFER HERE? JENNIFER 35 20 TO 35 Z TWO. YOU TOO, OKAY? HAD A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS ABOUT. THE PREVIOUS OWNING CURRENTLY THE BUSINESS THAT'S IN PLACE. HOW HAVE THEY BEEN OPERATING THE SIZE OF THEIR EVENTS? AND HOW ARE WE CHANGING THAT WITH THIS PROPOSAL? SURE. JUST ONE SECOND. I'M GONNA PULL UP MY AGENDA SUMMARY YEAR, SO. EXISTING ZONING OF THE PROPERTY IS FOR RESIDENTIAL USE IS NOW THERE IS A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT THAT ALLOWED THE PROPERTY TO OPERATE AS A BED AND BREAKFAST, WHICH IS SORT OF A NICE LITTLE IN, UM.

HOWEVER ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF AGO, OWNERSHIP CHANGED, AND SO THE PROPERTY STOPPED BEING USED FOR BED AND BREAKFAST IN THE NEW OWNER AND BEGAN USING THE PROPERTY FOR WEDDING AND EVENT VENUE AND THE EXISTING BUILDINGS THAT ARE ON THE SITE. THAT'S NOT PERMITTED UNDER THE CURRENT ZONING, UM, AND ABOUT A YEAR AGO, UH, OUR CODE SERVICES TEAM WAS NOTIFIED BY UTILITY BILLING THAT THEY WERE DOING A METER CHANGE REQUESTS AND WANTED TO CONFIRM THAT COMMERCIAL USES WERE ALLOWED ON THE PROPERTY. WHICH IS HOW WE FOUND OUT THAT THE WEDDING VENUE WAS OPERATING OUT OF COMPLIANCE WITH THE ZONING, SO I'VE BEEN WORKING WITH THEM SINCE THAT TIME TO TRY AND, UH, CREATE A ZONING THAT WOULD ALLOW FOR THE CONTINUATION OF.

THE WEDDING EVENT CENTER. UM THERE'S ALSO A NUMBER OF BUILDING IN SIGHT. UM, IMPROVEMENTS THAT WOULD BE REQUIRED FOR THEM TO CONTINUE OPERATING AS WELL, THE FIRST STEP IN THE PROCESS FOR THEM WOULD BE TO TRY AND PURSUE ZONING. FOR THE WEDDING AND EVENT VENUES. SO WITH THE EXIT THE ZONING THAT'S PROPOSED FOR TONIGHT IT'S A PD PLANE DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT THAT ESSENTIALLY LOCKS IN EXACTLY HOW THE SITE IS DEVELOPED TODAY. SO IF THEY WANTED TO CONTINUE USING THE SITE AS A WEDDING AND EVENT VENUE, THEY COULD DO SO IN THE EXISTING STRUCTURES ON THE SITE PENDING ALL OF THE IMPROVEMENTS THAT WOULD BE NECESSARY FOR FIRE AND BUILDING SAFETY. HOWEVER IF THEY WANTED TO EXPAND, THEY WOULD HAVE TO COME BACK AND GET ANOTHER REASON THEY WOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO GROW THAT WEDDING VENUE ON THE SITE WITH THE PROPOSED ZONING, SO THE CURRENT CURRENTLY THE TYPES OF EVENTS THAT THEY'RE HAVING WHAT DO WE HAVE AN IDEA OF THE SIZE OF THOSE EVENTS RIGHT NOW, SO I'LL HAVE TO DEFER THAT MORE TO THE APPLICANT, UNFORTUNATELY, BECAUSE THEY'VE BEEN OPERATING OUTSIDE OF SORT OF THE PARAMETERS OF CITY OVERSIGHT. IT'S IMPOSSIBLE FOR US TO KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE THERE HAVING DURING EACH EVENT THAT THEY'RE HAVING. I DID REACH OUT TO OUR BUILDING INSPECTIONS TEAM, TYPICALLY FOR A VENUE OF THIS SIZE, IT'S ABOUT A 1 TO 7 RATIO.

[00:10:03]

SO BASED ON THE SQUARE FOOTAGE COUNTS FOR THE INTERIOR SPACE THAT THEY'RE PROPOSING. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THEY COULD HOST UP TO ABOUT 300 PEOPLE INSIDE, MAYBE A LITTLE LESS THAN THAT.

IT ALL DEPENDS ON HOW THE INTERIOR OF THE BUILDING IS LAID OUT. FIRE EXITS AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE. BUT. I DON'T KNOW THAT IT'S OUT OF THE REALM OF POSSIBILITY. IT'S IMPOSSIBLE FOR US TO KNOW HOW MUCH THEY'VE BEEN DOING PREVIOUS. BUT THAT'S WHAT WE WERE LOOKING AT MOVING FORWARD. SO HAVE WE HAD FEEDBACK AT ALL FROM THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITY WE HAVE.

DO THEY UNDERSTAND WHAT'S GOING ON AND HOW THAT WOULD CHANGE BECAUSE A BED AND BREAKFAST IS FAR DIFFERENT FROM A 300 PERSON EVENT. ABSOLUTELY AGREED. AND WHAT I WILL SAY TO YOU ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE FACTORED IN, UM. WHEN WE WERE DISCUSSING THE REASONING WITH THE APPLICANT IS THEY HAVE BEEN OPERATING WHILE IT'S NOT BEEN LEGAL NECESSARILY, AND WE HAVE NOT HEARD A SINGLE COMPLAINT OUR CODE SERVICES TEAM HAS NOT HEARD ANY FROM ANY RESIDENTS SINCE THEY STARTED OPERATING AS AN EVENT VENUE. AND EVEN THROUGH THE REZONING PROCESS AND MULTIPLE NOTIFICATIONS. WE HAVE NOT HEARD FROM ANY ADJACENT OR NEARBY RESIDENTS. I'M CONCERNED ABOUT TRAFFIC IF I MAY. SURE. A LITTLE MORE APPROPRIATE FOR MR HAUSER. BUT UH, WHAT TAKES THIS OUT OF THE REALM OF SPOT ZONING? BINGHAM HOUSE. I DON'T KNOW. WE WERE ABLE TO PULL UP THE LOCATION MAP. YOU AND A SCROLL TO THE ONE THAT TO THE SECOND PAGE OF THAT IT'S GOT THE AERIAL FOR MR HAUSER. YEAH. HIGHWAY FIVE CHESTNUT. SO IT'S A BLOCK FROM HIGHWAY FIVE. I THINK, MR PHILLIPS THAT PROBABLY WOULD BE. THE BETTER ANALYSIS THAT IT'S CLOSE TO THE COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR. SO IT WOULD NOT, UH SHOULD NOT. HAVE A SPOT ZONING. CHALLENGE OR PROBLEM TO BE MARKED. FROM LOOKING AT IT. WE HAVE NEIGHBORS RIGHT TO THE SOUTH.

THE NORTH OF THIS DID NOT UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING YOU SAID OKAY? AGAIN. JUST LOOK AT THE PHOTO, AND IT IS A BLOCK OFF OF MCDONALD. AND THAT BEING CLOSE ENOUGH TO A COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR. SHOULD. TO AVOID A SPOT ZONING CHALLENGE OR ISSUE. AND, YOU KNOW, MARK, I'M NOT THAT FAMILIAR WITH THE STATUTES ON SPOT ZONING, BUT THAT DID CROSS MY MIND WHEN I SAW THIS ONE. I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU WERE AWARE OF IT IT BIG CASE LAW ANALYSIS. UH, COUNCILMAN AND SO THERE WOULDN'T BE A STATUTE THAT WOULD SPEAK TO THIS, BUT IT'S MORE OF AN ANALYSIS OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD IN THE PROXIMITY. AND I'LL CHIME IN ON THAT AS WELL. THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IN THIS AREA DESIGNATED AS TOWN CENTRE MIX, WHICH DOES SOMEWHAT ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THERE'S THERE IS SOME TRANSITION BETWEEN. RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL USES WHAT WE LOOKED AT WITH THE REZONING REQUEST WAS THE SIZE AND CONFIGURATION OF THE LOT ITSELF. THIS IS A HISTORIC PROPERTY. IT'S A VERY LARGE HOME. GOT A VERY PROMINENT, UM SORT OF ENTRANCE OR FACADE TO IT. THE BED AND BREAKFAST SCP THAT HAS BEEN AN OPERATION UP UNTIL ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF AGO, IS SOMEWHAT SEEN AS A QUASI COMMERCIAL USE ALREADY.

BECAUSE YOU DO HAVE COMINGS AND GOING FROM PEOPLE WHO ARE VISITING IT AS A BED AND BREAKFAST. SO THOSE ARE ALL THINGS THAT WE CONSIDERED WHEN WE WERE LOOKING AT THE REZONING.

ALSO KNOWING THAT IT'S BEEN IN OPERATION. AND WE HAVE NOT HEARD CONCERNS OR COMPLAINTS FROM THE RESIDENTS UP UNTIL THIS POINT, TRYING TO LOCK DOWN WITH THAT NEW ZONING, NO EXPANSION TO THE SITE WOULD BE PERMITTED, IT WOULD BE TO CONTINUE OPERATING UNDER THE CURRENT CONFIGURATION OF THE LOT. THE HOUSES. OR STRUCTURES THAT ARE ON THE SITE CURRENTLY TO TRY AND LIMIT ANY GROWTH OR EXPANSION OF THAT USE. YOU KNOW, THOUGH, IT'S A THIS IS THAT IS DUE EAST. THE, UH, RIGHT ACROSS THE BORDER AND FACES MCDONALD. WHAT IS THAT BUSINESS? DO YOU KNOW YOU'LL HAVE TO GIVE ME JUST A SECOND, MR PHILLIPS? CHARLIE IT'S A PAWN SHOP AND A SNOW CONE STAND AT THE PAWN SHOPS ACROSS ROMAN. YEAH, BUT ACROSS FROM THE PARKING LOT IS THE TC SNOW COME, BUT DIRECTLY ACROSS TOWARDS THE PAWNSHOP MCKINNEY BOND. YEAH.

GET JENNIFER. RIGHT? I GOT A QUESTION QUICK. I DO HAVE SOME HISTORY. I HAD TO GO LOOK AT IT,

[00:15:03]

DRE EARLIER THAN IT REMINDED ME. MY, UH. BROTHER AND SISTER LAWS. WEDDING WAS HERE, 2000 AND 12 AND I ASKED THEM WHAT THEIR ATTENDANCE WAS, AND THEY SAID AROUND 200. SO I. WHEN I SAW IT, I GO. I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN WHAT THE PLACE WAS. I WAS THERE AT A WEDDING. UH, WHAT WAS IT ZONE FOR THEN? SAME FINANCIAL? YEP. OKAY, SO. I WHEN I SAW IT, I KNEW EXACTLY WHAT IT WAS. I KNEW THAT THEY'VE HAD THAT WAS NINE YEARS AGO, RIGHT? THAT'S NINE YEARS AGO, SO WE HAD. I MEAN, I KNOW BECAUSE THEY WERE. FAMILIES FROM WISCONSIN. THE OTHER FAMILIES FROM TEXAS ALL THE PEOPLE CAME IN. IT WAS A BIG WEDDING, BUT YOU DIDN'T FEEL LIKE IT WAS IN DOING ANYTHING. THEY DO HAVE THE PARKING LOT THAT YOU SEE. THAT'S JUST DIRECTLY TO THE SOUTH OF IT. THAT IS. THAT PIECE IS IT'S A SMALL PART, BUT IT'S WHERE THE CARS GO. THAT'S CORRECT, AND I'LL SAY AS PART OF THE REASONING THEY WOULD BE IMPROVING THAT BECAUSE RIGHT NOW IT'S KIND OF A GRAVEL LOT, AND THEY WOULD BE REQUIRED TO IMPROVE THAT LOT TO ACTUALLY STRIPE IT AND MAKE IT MORE TANGIBLE PARKING. LOOK THERE'S STILL ONLY 35. IS IT CORRECT 35 PARKING SPACES THERE? WHAT I CAN'T. THERE'S NOT MUCH MORE THAN 35 NOT GONNA EXPAND THAT RIGHT? SO BUT YOU CAN'T EXPAND IT AGAIN AND AGAIN. THIS IS WHAT IT IS. SO THE SAME PEOPLE INTO PARKING RENEW WEDDING ANYWAY. THAT'S THAT'S MY ISSUE IS. I DON'T MIND, YOU KNOW DOING THAT, ESPECIALLY WITH THE NEIGHBORS, BUT, YOU KNOW, I MEAN, HOW EVERYBODY JUST PARK PARKS AROUND STARTS CLOGGING UP THE STREETS, AND I MEAN, DON'T WE HAVE ISSUES WITH. I MEAN, SHOULDN'T A VENUE HAVE ENOUGH PARKING FOR ITSELF AND NOT HAVE TO USE OUR STREETS AND EVERYTHING? I MEAN, DO WE NOT HAVE SOME SORT OF ORDINANCE THAT. WELL IT DEMANDS THAT WE DO SO WE DO HAVE WE DO HAVE PARKING STANDARD. AND SO THERE'S SOMEWHAT OF A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WHAT THE MINIMUM PARKING REQUIRED FOR THE ORDINANCES VERSUS WHAT MAY PHYSICALLY BE NECESSARY FOR AN EVENT. FOR AN EVENT SIZE OR FOR AN EVENT CENTER OF THIS, I BELIEVE WHAT THEY'RE PROPOSING WITH THEIR ZONING REGULATIONS IS PARKING AT A 1 TO 200 SQUARE FOOT RATIO. OUR STANDARD RATIO FOR AN EVENT CENTER LIKE THIS WOULD BE 1 TO 1 50. SO THERE ARE SLIGHTLY LESS THAN THAT, BUT STILL WITHIN A MARKET REASON IN OUR OPINION. AND THEN ULTIMATELY PARKING ON STREET AND BEING ABLE TO PUT UP SIGNAGE. IF PEOPLE ARE CLOGGING THE STREETS. UM THAT'S DEFINITELY SOMETHING THAT OUR ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT HAS THE ABILITY TO LOOK AT DOING. IF THERE ARE COMPLAINTS OR CONCERNS ABOUT ON STREET PARKING AND WANTING TO HELP PREVENT THAT FROM OCCURRING. I GUESS MY NEXT MARK QUESTION. SINCE THIS HAS BEEN OPEN AS A WEDDING VENUE FOR QUITE SOME TIME. HAVE WE HAD ANY ISSUES WITH IT? WE HAVE NOT BEEN MADE AWARE OF ANY CONCERNS FOR NOISE OR TRAFFIC OR ANYTHING RELATED TO THE EVENT SPACE THAT'S BEEN USED IN THE LAST YEAR AND A HALF. THEY CAN HOST THESE EVENTS. SO IN THE IN THE. OUTSIDE PORTION. THIS IS NOT JUST LIMITED TO THE INSIDE. CORRECT. THAT'S CORRECT, WHICH IS WHICH IS HOW THEY'RE OPERATING AGAIN AND OPERATING THAT WAY. LEGAL ALL CAVEAT THAT, BUT, UM FOR THE NEIGHBORS AND SUCH, AND THAT'S WHAT'S OCCURRING TODAY. UM THE CITY DID ISSUE. WE DID ISSUE A NOTICE OF VIOLATION AND HELP HAD THE CEASE OPERATIONS EARLIER THIS YEAR. UM WE HAVE WORKED WITH THEM TO ALLOW. THEY HAD SEVERAL EVENTS BOOKED UP. PRIOR TO FEBRUARY, WHEN WE WERE MADE AWARE OF, UM THE LACK OF ZONING AND OUR CODE TEAM AND OUR FIRE DEPARTMENT. FIRE MARSHAL'S OFFICE HAS WORKED WITH THEM TO ALLOW THEM TO HONOR SOME OF THE CONTRACTS THAT THEY HAD, BUT THEY ARE LIMITED TO ONLY OUTDOOR. FOLKS ARE NOT ALLOWED TO GO INSIDE THE BUILDINGS UNLESS THERE IS A FIRE WATCH BECAUSE SOME OF THE MAJOR CONCERNS THAT ARE CODE TEAM HAS IS RELATED TO BUILDING SAFETY ON THE INSIDE, MAKING SURE THAT THERE'S ENOUGH FIRE SUPPRESSION SYSTEMS INSIDE WHEN YOU HAVE FOLKS IN THERE. FIRE EXITS ACCESSIBLE RESTROOMS AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE ARE THE MAJOR CONCERNS THAT ARE CODE TEAM HAS OUTSIDE OF JUST THE USE, RIGHT? IT'S OKAY IF THE USES TO BE ALLOWED. WHAT ARE THE IMPROVEMENTS THAT NEED TO HAPPEN INTERIOR TO THE SPACE TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S SAFE FOR BOOKS THAT ARE COMING TO THE VENUE. THINK MY CONCERN IS THAT WE HAVE A NICE, VERY HISTORIC PROPERTY HERE IN MCKINNEY. WE HAVE AN OWNER THAT CAME IN DID NOT UNDERSTAND AND ZONING DID NOT INQUIRE ABOUT THE ZONING DID NOT SEEK TO FIND OUT IF THIS WAS A PROBE. INAPPROPRIATE USE OF THE PROPERTY OR. AND IS THIS KIND OF A SLIPPERY SLOPE THAT WE'RE DOING? WE'RE CREATING HERE WHERE WE REWARD PEOPLE THAN WITH A REZONING OF OUR PROPERTY BECAUSE THEY WANT TO USE IT THE WAY THEY SEE FIT.

NOW I UNDERSTAND. I DIDN'T KNOW THE HISTORY BEHIND. YOU KNOW THE PREVIOUS EVENTS AND THINGS LIKE THAT. BUT. I FOUND I FIND IT REALLY DIFFICULT TO BE OKAY WITH THIS, KNOWING THAT THEY PURCHASED THIS AND DIDN'T SURE DIDN'T DO THEIR RESEARCH PRIOR UNDERSTAND. THE DISCUSSION. AND

[00:20:07]

TONIGHT THE APPLICANT WILL BE HERE. OBVIOUSLY, I'M NOT HERE TO. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, JENNIFER. ANY OTHER ITEMS ANYONE WANTS TO DISCUSS? I'VE GOT. THINK TWO ITEMS. ONE, UM UH, COMBINATION OF THE EASTLEIGH LOUISIANA STREET, UM, CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS AND THE FLOUR MILLS. SPECIFIC USE PERMIT THAT THEY'RE REQUESTING IN TERMS OF THE I DON'T KNOW WHO TO ASK THAT QUESTION TO JENNIFER, COME UP. YEAH, SINCE IT'S TWO DIFFERENT ONES JUST APPEAR THE. THE SITE PLAN FOR THE FLOUR MILL SHOWS IT, YOU KNOW, BUTTING UP AGAINST EAST LOUISIANA STREET. UM. I GUESS FROM A TIMING PERSPECTIVE. IS THAT GOING TO CAUSE ANY ISSUES WITH. WHO'S DOING WHAT IN THERE? AND THEN WHAT IS THE TIMING ON THE HE'S LOUISIANA STREET AND THEN HOW IT RELATES TO, AND THAT MAY BE A QUESTION FOR GARY HOW IT RELATES TO THE OTHER ROAD IMPROVEMENTS WE'RE GOING TO SEE IN THAT AREA. SO IN FACT WHAT I'M GOING TO DO, I'M GOING TO DEFER THAT QUESTION TO ENGINEERING FIRST, BECAUSE I THINK IT'S MORE GEARED TOWARDS THE TIMING OF THE RECONSTRUCTION AND LESS TO DO WITH THE S U P REQUEST BECAUSE THE S U. T IS ALL. ON THEIR PROPERTY, THEIR OWN PROPERTY, SO THERE REALLY SHOULDN'T BE ANY INTERFERENCE BETWEEN OUR RECONSTRUCTION PROJECT AND THEIR ABILITY TO USE. I WOULD JUST LIKE TO KNOW AS AN APPLICANT. IF I'M ABOUT TO MAKE IMPROVEMENTS TO AN OUTDOOR VENUE, IT'S GOING TO BE NEXT TO A SIX MONTH ROAD CONSTRUCTION PROJECT. I KNOW THAT I WOULD WANT TO RUSH INTO THEM. SO I WISH IT WAS A SIX MONTH ROAD CONSTRUCTION. YEAH, UM. WE'VE GOT TWO PROJECTS. WE'VE GOT THE LOUISIANA STREET PROJECT. UM BUT WE ALSO HAVE THE GREEN AND INJURIES, IMPROVEMENTS AS WELL. AND SO WE ARE NEARING THE DESIGN COMPLETION WISH OF THE DESIGN FOR BOTH PROJECTS. SO WE ARE AN ACTIVE CONVERSATIONS WITH SEVERAL CONTRACTORS TO FIGURE OUT WHAT'S THE BEST WAY FOR US TO PROCEED FORWARD.

SHOULD WE BE BIT IT AS TWO SEPARATE PROJECTS OR SHOULD WE DID IT AS ONE PROJECT? IF WE DID IT AS ONE PROJECT, UM. WE HAVE LESS OVERLAP BETWEEN AND CONFLICT POTENTIAL CONFLICT BETWEEN CONTRACTORS, WHICH NOW START TO POINT THE FINGERS OF EACH OTHER, AND WE START START TO SEE THE EXTENSION OF SOME PROJECTS, SO WE'RE LEANING TOWARDS LEANING BIDDING THAT OTHER WAY. WE WERE HOPING THAT IF WE DID IT BY TWO SEPARATE CONTRACTS THAT MIGHT GET DONE SOONER, BUT IT'S NOT WHAT WE'RE HEARING FROM THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY RIGHT NOW, SO WE'RE STILL MAKING SOME EVALUATIONS ON THAT. WE HOPE TO GO TO CONSTRUCTION EARLY 2022. BUT IT'S PROBABLY GONNA BE, UM. 14 TO 16 MONTH PROJECT WITH SOME SORT OF INCENTIVES. EVEN IF WE DID IT IS ONE OR TWO PROJECTS. UM SO WE GO WITH A LARGER ONE PROJECT. IT WILL ELIMINATE SOME SMALLER BIDDERS BECAUSE THEY JUST DON'T HAVE THE RESOURCES TO CONSTRUCT. THAT LARGE OF A PROJECT AND SO WE GET SOME OF THE BIGGER NAME COMPANIES DOING THERE SO WE MIGHT HAVE A SMALLER SELECTION CRITERIA OR SMALLER SELECTION POOL AS FAR AS BIDDERS, BUT THAT'S THAT'S WHERE WE'RE AT. BUT. WE HAVE BEEN WORKING HAND IN HAND WITH TOPS, FOLKS, SO THEY KNOW WHAT OUR SCHEDULES ARE. WE TOLD THEM THAT THEY WILL LIKELY GET UNDER CONSTRUCTION WHILE WE'RE UNDER CONSTRUCTION. THEY PROBABLY LITTLE FINISHED BEFORE WEEK. FINISH IN OUR COMMITMENT TO THEM IS TO LEAVE. UM. AT LEAST ONE LANE OF TRAFFIC OPEN AND SO THEY MAY HAVE TO USE VIRGINIA AND TO EXIT OUT WHILE ONE WAY LOUISIANA'S COMING IN, OR VICE VERSA, BUT BECAUSE I MEAN, YOU'VE GOT. LOUISIANA GREEN ANDREWS AND I'M GONNA. ON THE DUNK. DUNCAN GOES AWAY, RIGHT BECOMES RIGHT, BUT IT BECOMES A PARKING LOT, SO THAT'S UNDER CONSTRUCTION. YEP. AND SO IF THAT'S AS SOON AS THAT PARKING LOT IS OPEN. IT WILL HAVE A MUTUAL ACCESS AGREEMENT AND ACTUALLY NOW PROVIDE AN ACCESS FOR TOPS TO LEAVE TO THE SOUTH AND GET TO ANTHONY, WHERE THEY REALLY CAN. TODAY. SO THAT MAY END UP BEING A PARTIAL SOLUTION FOR THEM IS HAVING ANOTHER ACCESS POINT WHERE CONSTRUCTION IS NOT OCCURRING, OKAY? OKAY? THE, UM THAT'S ALL I HAVE ON THAT. THANK YOU. THE OTHER THING I HAD. MR GRAHAM'S HAS SENT YOU THIS IN AN EMAIL AND I READ YOUR RESPONSE. BUT I DO THINK IT WOULD. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THE CONVERSATION EITHER.

NOW OR IN IN REGULAR SESSION TO PULL. 677 DOWN, 21. OH, 677 DOWN. INTO THE REGULAR AGENDA.

I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WANT US TO REPEAT WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT IN THE EMAIL OR, BUT IT'S UP TO

[00:25:03]

YOU AND HOW YOU WOULD WISH TO DO IT IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO PULL US DOWN FOR INDIVIDUAL CONSIDERATION, WHICH YOU COULD CERTAINLY DO MAKE A MOTION FOR THAT. WHEN THE CONSENT CALENDAR HAS BROUGHT FORWARD AT THE REGULAR MEETING, AND THEN YOU CAN RAISE. WHATEVER QUESTIONS YOU HAVE, AND YOU CAN DISCUSS IT, THEN WE COULD ADDRESS IT NOW. ARE YOU GONNA DRESS AND WE WENT TO REST IT NOW THAT'S FINE WITH ME. LET'S DO THAT. WHY WE HAVE ALL THE STUFF. THAT'S MY REASON FOR WANTING TO PULL IT DOWN. IT'S JUST TO KIND OF BE TRANSPARENT ABOUT THE PROCESS BECAUSE I DO THINK THAT IT IT IS A. GREAT BENEFIT THAT WE PROVIDE THROUGH THE MEETING CONFER, AND I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT. I'M STATING THAT FOR NON. SWORN IN PERSONNEL, FIRE POLICE AND FIRE THAT WE ALSO HAVE PROCESSES FOR HOW WE CONSIDER. PAY INCREASES IN THINGS LIKE THAT. SO THAT'S THAT. GENERAL CONVERSATION THAT I WANTED TO HAVE NOT REALLY TO DO WITH THAT ITEM. BUT I WASN'T HERE IN FEBRUARY, WHEN WE HAD THE UH, STRATEGIC PLANNING MEETINGS. AND SO I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THAT CONVERSATION ABOUT. UM YOU KNOW, WHERE HAVE WE BEEN FROM EVALUATING THE PAY OF CIVILIAN EMPLOYEES? AND HOW DO WE DO THAT IN A WAY THAT IS FAIR AND EQUITABLE. SO WHERE WE ARE TODAY ARE CIVILIAN EMPLOYEES, SO EVERYONE WHO IS NOT COVERED BY THE POLICE ASSOCIATION OR FIREFIGHTERS ASSOCIATION MEETING FOR AGREEMENTS. WE GENERALLY DO PAY STUDIES ABOUT EVERY THREE YEARS TO LOOK AT WHAT THE MARKET IS.

WE HAVE 10 COMPARISON CITIES. WE LOOK AT WHAT THAT MARKET AVERAGES. AND THEN WE SET OUR.

MID POINTS OF ALL OF OUR OUR SALARIES FOR ALL OF THOSE POSITIONS AT THE MIDPOINT OF THAT MARKET AT THE 50TH 50% AND WHAT MR MELLORS SPEAKING TO IS UNDER MEET AND CONFER FOR THE POLICE ASSOCIATION. PREVIOUS AGREEMENT, WE LOOK AT THAT SAME 50TH PERCENTILE TWICE EVERY YEAR. AND THEN WE. UH TAKE THE 15TH PERCENTILE AND THEN ADD 1.5% TO THAT TO PUSH THEM A LITTLE AHEAD OF THE MARKET AVERAGE AND WE'RE PROPOSING DOING THAT IN THE UPCOMING AND EVEN MOVING THEM A LITTLE FURTHER AHEAD IN THE MARKET AS WELL. PER THE AGREEMENT. THAT'S WHAT. WHAT'S INCLUDED IN THE ITEM FOR TONIGHT? SO. THE QUESTION IS, AS I UNDERSTAND IT. IS THERE A WAY TO LOOK AT A SIMILAR PROCESS FOR THE NON PUBLIC SAFETY EMPLOYEES, AND THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE'LL BE TALKING ABOUT ON THE 13TH FRIDAY, THE 13TH AT OUR BUDGET, RETREAT SOME THINGS THAT WE'RE LOOKING TO DO IN THE UPCOMING YEAR. BUT ALSO, UH, MAYBE HAVE SOME PLANS FOR OUT YEARS ON HOW WE CAN START TO IMPLEMENT THOSE TYPES OF THINGS IF IT'S THE COUNCIL'S WISH. WHAT FROM THE, UM. HOW THE PAST MEET AND CONFER HAS BEEN IMPLEMENTED. IS THIS VERY LOUD? IT IS GET A TON OF FEEDBACK RIGHT HERE. BUT IN TERMS OF HOW IT'S BEEN IMPLEMENTED, WHAT IS THE. I GUESS. AVERAGE PAY INCREASE THAT HAS, UH, BEEN ADJUSTED BASED OFF THAT COMPARING TO STANDARDS VERSES HAVE WE. ADJUSTED THAT TO THE CIVILIAN PERSONNEL RANGES, AND IF. I GUESS STILL HERE. HE MAY HAVE BETTER NUMBERS THAN I DO, BUT IT DEPENDS ON THE YEAR AND ON THE POSITION, SO WHEN YOU GO TWICE PER YEAR, AND YOU LOOK AT THE COMPARISON CITIES. SOMETIMES MAYBE OUR POLICE OFFICER BUMPS UP, YOU KNOW? 1% PART OF THE MARKET TO KEEP THEM AHEAD. AND SOMETIMES, YOU KNOW, OUR SERGEANT POSITION DOESN'T BUMP UP AT ALL BECAUSE THE MARKET IS KIND OF FLAT, BUT BUT GENERALLY YOU'RE GOING TO SEE INCREASES AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR BASED ON THAT MARKET. FOR EACH OF THE POSITIONS AS THEY MOVE FORWARD. FROM A PERCENTAGE STANDPOINT, IT'S USUALLY 1% OR SOMETIMES LESS. THERE ARE SOME OF THE MARKET ADJUSTMENTS WHERE IT DOES NOT MOVE UP FOR SOME OF THE POSITIONS AT ALL. IT REALLY JUST DEPENDS ON OTHER CITIES. SO OUR TIN COMPARISON CITIES REALLY ARE THE ONES YOU WOULD EXPECT. THE FRISCO PLANO ALLEN'S LEWISVILLE GARLAND MESQUITE, THE PEOPLE WE COMPETE WITH FOR, UH, TALENT. SO SOME YEARS, SEVERAL OF THEM HAVE DONE MARKET ADJUSTMENTS AND SO ARE REFLECTS THAT AND IT MOVES UP AND OTHER TIMES. THEY HAVE IN ALL THAT MARKET ADJUSTMENTS.

AND SO IT'S A LITTLE FLAT. BUT I WOULD SAY, ON AVERAGE, IT PROBABLY MOVES UP LESS THAN 1.

AND THAT COMPARED TO OUR CIVILIAN STAFF, LIKE WHAT IS AN AVERAGE SO WITH OUR CIVILIANS UP UNTIL ABOUT A YEAR, AND A HALF AGO, WE SWITCHED. WE CHANGED OUR PAY STRATEGY FROM.

WHAT WE CALLED MERIT BASED INCREASES, WHICH REALLY WASN'T HAPPENING THAT WAY, AND THE AVERAGE. OVERALL AVERAGE. WHAT WE TYPICALLY BUDGETED WAS USUALLY AROUND 2 TO 3% BECAUSE IT WAS ABOUT A 3% MERIT INCREASED. IT WAS BEING CONTEMPLATED. IT REALLY HASN'T CHANGED. WE'VE NOW MOVED TO A STEP PLAN. SO OUR EMPLOYEES PROGRESSED THROUGH STEPS AND I THINK THERE'S 13 STEPS ALTOGETHER AND THEY'LL PROGRESS THROUGH 13 STEPS. EACH YEAR. UM

[00:30:06]

THE CONTEMPLATION, OF COURSE, IS THAT AS YOU GET MORE EXPERIENCE, YOU'RE MORE PR THEREFORE YOU'RE PAID FOR THAT. AND IT'S ABOUT A 3% ON AVERAGE INCREASE BETWEEN STEPS. SO THEY WILL AN EMPLOYEE CIVILIAN EMPLOYEE, AND BY THE WAY, THAT'S MORE STEPS THAN WHAT YOU HAVE IN OUR PUBLIC SAFETY, PUBLIC SAFETY. I THINK A SEVEN STEPS. SO WE HAVE 13 STEPS. YOU'RE PROGRESSING YOUR WAY THROUGH. IN ADDITION TO THAT, UM WE ALSO LOOK AT THE MARKET ADJUSTMENTS SO EVERY 2 TO 3 YEARS. WE WILL BRING IN A CONSULTANT THAT WILL WORK ON COMPARING ALL OF OUR POSITIONS AND THE CIVILIAN ROLES. THE CIVILIAN POSITIONS ON WHERE ARE WE WITH THE MARKETPLACE AND DO WE NEED TO MAKE ADJUSTMENTS THERE? WE MADE A GROUP ADJUSTMENT THIS PAST YEAR WE DID A 1.5% INCREASE IN ANOTHER 1.5. THAT'S A LITTLE BIT MISLEADING BECAUSE WE DIDN'T DO A STEP INCREASE. WE FROZE STEPS BECAUSE WE WERE IN A RECESSION FROM THE PANDEMIC, AND WE SAID AS A MATTER OF PRUDENCE, LET'S HOLD OFF ON ANY STEP INCREASES.

IT'S HARD TO BE OFFERING STEP INCREASES. ONE OF THE PEOPLE ARE LOSING THEIR JOBS, SO. WHAT WE DID, THOUGH, IS WE OFFERED 1.5% PAY SCALE INCREASE FOR EVERYBODY COST OF LIVING ADJUSTMENT. YOU MIGHT CALL IT. AND THEN WE AS OUR REVENUES. WE LOOKED AT OUR REVENUES IN THIS LAST FISCAL YEAR AND SIX MONTHS IN, WE OFFERED ANOTHER 1.5% INCREASE, SO EVERYBODY GOT A 3% BY THE END OF YEAR, THEY'RE GOING TO MAKE 3% MORE THAN WHAT THEY WERE GOING INTO THE YEAR.

AND THAT ADJUSTS THE PAY SCALE. FUTURE STEP INCREASES ON OCTOBER ONE. EVERYBODY GETS A STEP INCREASE. WE'RE GOING TO RESUME. THOSE ARE BUDGET PROPOSAL WILL HAVE THE RESUMPTION OF THE STEP INCREASES SO THAT WILL BE BASED OFF OF A HIGHER BASE. THE PAY SCALE WENT UP 3% OVER THE COURSE OF THE YEAR. THEREFORE, THAT STEP INCREASE WILL INCREASE ACCORDINGLY. SO. IN THE, UM STRATEGIC PLANNING WORKSHOP, WHICH YOU WEREN'T ON THE COUNCIL AT THE TIME. I MADE THE COMMENT THAT TO THE COUNSELORS WE HAVE TO WE TAKE GREAT PRIDE, AND THERE'S THAT VERY FAMILIAR RING RIGHT ON CUBE. THERE'S WE TAKE GREAT PRIDE IN THE FACT THAT WE ARE VERY PRODUCTIVE WITH OUR EMPLOYEES. WE HAVE FEWER EMPLOYEES PER 1000 RESIDENTS IN OUR NEIGHBORING COMMUNITIES. AND AS I EXPLAINED AT THE TIME, I SAID, WE'RE. THAT'S PRODUCTIVITY. BY DEFINITION, THAT'S PRODUCTIVITY AND WE SHOULD PAY FOR PRODUCTIVITY AND WE SHOULD ADOPT STRATEGIES FOR FIGURING OUT HOW ARE WE GOING TO START COMPENSATING OUR EMPLOYEES FOR HIGHER PRODUCTIVITY? AND SO OUR BUDGET PROPOSAL THIS NEXT BUDGET CYCLE WILL HAVE FUNDS. FOR US TO START IMPLEMENTING A GRADUAL INCREASE IN OUR PERCENTILE OF OUR CIVILIANS AS WELL. IT MAY NOT BE EXACTLY THE SAME AS POLICE AND FIRE THERE IN A DIFFERENT SITUATION, BUT THE CONCEPT IS SIMILAR IS TO GRADUALLY RAISE OUR PAY PERCENTILE FOR CIVILIANS. SO THAT WERE ALSO IN THE. HIGHER QUARTILE OR HIRED. UM MAYBE IT'S A THIRD WHATEVER OF OUR COMPARABLES, SO THAT'S THE STRATEGY. OKAY, IT'S NOT THERE YET IN AND I GUESS I TOLD YOU IN THE EMAIL, BUT I JUST SITTING IN MY THE COMMENTS I WAS MAKING DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE MEET AND CONFER.

THINK THE MEETING CONFERRED AS A GOOD JOB OF YOU KNOW, FINDING THAT THAT. COMPETITIVE MARKET RATE FOR COMPENSATION. WE JUST I'D LIKE TO FIND A WAY TO KIND OF MIRROR THAT IN OUR OUR NON SWORN PERSONNEL, AND SO THAT WE DO HAVE A WAY THAT WE'RE DOING THAT ON AN ONGOING BASIS, I THINK. UM, YOU HAD MENTIONED IN THE. RESPOND BACK TO ME, I THINK, UH, STARTING AN EMPLOYEE AT AN ENTRY LEVEL JOB IS 32,000 PROBABLY OUR LOWEST PAID FULL TIME POSITION IS PROBABLY AROUND LOW THIRTIES ABOUT $15 AN HOUR, PROBABLY ON A FULL TIME BASIS. SO JUST FINDING WAYS THAT WE WERE ENSURING THAT WE'RE UM UH HUH. BEEN AS AS GOOD OF AN EMPLOYER'S. WE NEED TO BE IN ALL SECTORS. UM, AND DOING THAT, ON A KIND OF A. SYSTEMATIC BASIS, LIKE THE MEETING CONFERRED OF, SO I THINK THAT THAT'S AN, UM GOOD THING. THINK I HAD ONE OTHER THING. YOU DIDN'T PROBABLY. SO THE QUESTION I'LL HAVE FOR YOU IS JUST AS MANY PROCEDURE. DO YOU STILL WANT TO PULL THAT ITEM SEPARATELY AND ON THE REGULAR AGENDA, OR DO YOU WANT TO LEAVE IT ON CONCERNED? I THINK IT WOULD BE GOOD TO HAVE IT ON THE REGULAR AGENDA. JUST FOR TRANSPARENCY. IT IS A LARGE ITEM. I MEAN, YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT YEAH. A FAIRLY BIG PERSONNEL ITEMS SO GOOD MM. I WANT TO VOTE FOR IT, BUT I'M. THE ANSWER? YES YEAH, YES ANSWERS. YES, YES, IT'S GOING TO IT WILL BE PULLED FROM THE CONSENT AND MADE AS A CONSIDERED INDIVIDUALLY. THAT MAKE A COMMENT. GO ON THIS. YES, SIR. UM. JUST GOING TO

[00:35:07]

OCCURRED TO ME. I WANT TO HIRE THE BEST AND THE BRIGHTEST AND I WOULD LIKE TO DO. OUR POLICE AND FIRE TO MAKE THIS THEIR HOME AND NOT TO LOOK TO GO OTHER PLACES. AND WHEN I LOOK AT THE GENERAL THEORY OF. TAKING AN AVERAGE? YEAH, KIND OF. THE WAY I'M LOOKING AT IT RIGHT NOW IS THAT WE'RE ADVERTISING THAT WE WANT THE MOST AVERAGE EMPLOYEES OUT THERE AND. I'M JUST SAYING THAT FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF WHAT. IT COULD BE CONSTRUED OF AND SOMETHING FOR THE COUNCIL TO THINK ABOUT GOING INTO THE FUTURE BECAUSE. WHEN I GO OUT TO HIRE SOMEBODY TO PAINT MY HOUSE, I DON'T ASK MY FRIENDS. HEY, WHO'S THE MOST AVERAGE PAIN ARE OUT THERE? DRAWING OUT THEIR COMMENT. I DON'T EXPECT ANY COMMENTS IN RETURN, JUST.

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT. THANK YOU. I'D LIKE TO SAY SOMETHING IS NOT DO THESE MEETINGS FOR CONTRACTS ACROSS THE STATE. THEY WEREN'T AROUND A DECADE AGO AND PLACE ON FIRE. WE'RE BOUNCING AROUND ALL OVER THE STATE LOOKING FOR HIGHEST BIDDERS WORK. AND THEY USUALLY FIND A LOT OF WORK IN PLANO GARLAND WHERE OUR POLICE CHIEF CAME FROM, AND THE REASON THEY WOULD BECAUSE THEY WERE PAYING BETTER HAVING BETTER BENEFITS HAVING BETTER, YOU KNOW, SUSTAINABLE LIFE FORM, AND SO MCKINNEY DIDN'T DO THAT. IN THE PAST, THEY FINALLY STARTED HONORING THE CONTRACT, PUTTING A CONTRACT TOGETHER, BRINGING THE BRIGHTEST THE BEST TO THIS TO THIS CITY, AND THAT'S WHY WE HAVE ONE OF THE SAFEST CITIES IN THE STATE OF TEXAS. AND THAT'S HOW WE KEEP IT THE SAFEST CITY IN THE STATE OF TEXAS BY PAYING THEM A FAIR PAY, AND I GET IT WITH THE CIVILIANS. UH BUT THE LAST THING WE WANT TO DO IS OUR OFFICERS TO LEAVE. YOU CAN LOOK AT ANYWHERE DOWN THE ROAD AND ANY OTHER DIFFERENT APARTMENT WHETHER ITS MESQUITE OR DALLAS OR GRAND PRAIRIE, AND YOU CAN SEE THEIR ATTRITION RATE JUST TANKING. DALLAS IS AT 270 OFFICERS LEFT THIS YEAR. YOU CAN GO ALL OVER THE STATE AND SEE THE SAME COMPARABLE NUMBERS WITH OFFICERS LEAVING AND YOU SIT THERE AND YOU. HIRE ANOTHER GROUP, AND YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO GET BECAUSE YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO RETRAIN SOMEBODY. IN THE PROCESS WHERE RIGHT NOW IT'S UNBELIEVABLY GREAT, AND I THINK IT'S FAIR.

UH I'D LIKE TO. I'D LIKE MORE OFFICERS WHO LIVE IN OUR CITY. BUT I'VE BEEN SAYING THAT FOR YEARS. I DON'T EVEN LIVE IN THE CITY AT WORK. SO IT'S UNDERSTANDABLE BECAUSE THAT'S JUST THE NATURE OF THE JOB, AND OUR FIRE GOES THE SAME WAY. WE HAVE AN UNBELIEVABLE FIRE DEPARTMENT AND IT'S GROWING. SO I LIKE I THINK THE CONTRACTS GREAT. I THINK THEY WHAT WAS 100% VOTE. WAS 80% VOTING 100 UNANIMOUS VOTE. YEAH, THAT'S PRETTY. THAT'S PRETTY AMAZING WHEN YOU SAY THAT RIGHT THERE, SO I THINK IT'S A GOOD CONTRACT, SO WE'LL JUST GO FROM THERE WHEN WE BRING THIS BACK UP. SHARED THAT COMING FROM YOU, FRED. THANK YOU. THE OTHER COMMENTS. ALL RIGHT. SAVE MY COMMENTS ON MEET AND CONFER WHEN WE HAVE THAT MEETING, BUT ACTUALLY, NO ONE WILL BE SURPRISED MY COMMENTS. I THINK I AGREE THAT WHAT'S BEEN SET UP HERE WE HAVE THE BEST THAT THERE IS AND NEED TO BE COMPENSATED ACCORDINGLY. UM. WE ARE NOW THERE'S NO OTHER ITEMS ON REGULAR SESSION THAT LIKE TO BE. SURE, I HOPE NOT. ALL RIGHT, WELL, WE JUST COVER THE WHOLE AGENDA. WE DON'T HAVE TO. OUR MEETING TONIGHT WILL BE CANCELLED REALLY SHORT, OKAY. SO WE'LL GO TO OUR WORK SESSION. ITEMS IN THE FIRST ITEM IS

[Presentation on the Preliminary Trails Master Plan and the Preliminary Parks, Recreation & Open Space Master Plan Update]

210667 THAT IS PRESENTATION ON THE PRELIMINARY TRAILS, MASTER PLAN AND THE PRELIMINARY PARKS.

RECREATION OPEN SPACE MASTER PLAN UPDATE. MR KOWSKI. AFTERNOON. MICHAEL KOWSKI, DIRECTOR OF PARKS AND RECREATION. ARE YOU TAKING IT PERSONAL LOT OF PEOPLE LEAVING RIGHT NOW. I MEAN, I CALLED YOUR NAME UP. IT'S GOT TO DEAL WITH THIS LIKE IT'S STILL THERE. IT'S GOOD GOOD SHOWING. DON'T TAKE IT PERSONAL GOOD. IT'S ALL GOOD. IT'S ALL GOOD.

SO IN 2017, THE CITY ADOPTED OUR CURRENT PARKS MASTER PLAN. CITY THAT GROWS LIKE WE'RE GROWING. WE NEED TO REVIEW IT EVERY 3 TO 5 YEARS. SO WE'RE THE FOUR YEAR MARK. IT'S TIME TO TAKE A LOOK AT HOW WE'RE DOING. AND, OF COURSE, RECALIBRATE OUR GOALS AS NECESSARY. I SAY WE BECAUSE I'M JOINED TODAY WITH MISS JENNY BAKER OR PARKS, DEVELOPMENT AND PLANNING MANAGER. ALSO OUR CONSULTANTS DUNAWAY ASSOCIATES, PHILIP AND ADAM. THEY'RE HERE TODAY TO WALK US THROUGH THIS. THEY WILL DO PLAY BY PLAY, AND I'LL DO SOME COLOR COMMENTARY ALONG THE WAY. THAT GOOD. NOPE. YEAH. GOOD AFTERNOON, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. THANK YOU FOR LETTING US BE WITH YOU. WE. REALLY ENJOYED THE PROCESS. THIS IS PROBABLY A YEAR AND A HALF.

[00:40:07]

LIKE THAT IN THE PROCESS, AND I'VE SEEN AND BEEN INVOLVED WITH A LOT OF PARK SYSTEMS IN TEXAS AND. JUST LIKE TO SAY AT THE BEGINNING YEARS IS VERY I USE THE WORD ROBUST. PRETTY DYNAMIC IN YOUR MIX, AND YOU'VE GOT A PHENOMENAL RANGE OF THINGS SO AND I KNOW IT TAKES A LOT OF YEARS. A LOT OF TIME, A LOT OF INVESTMENT, BUT WE'VE HAD A LOT OF FUN WITH MIKE GENIE IN JAIL AND THE GANG. BECAUSE WHEN THEY BROUGHT US TO THE TABLE ONE TO VISIT ABOUT THIS, THEY WANTED TO KIND OF BUILD ON THE MOMENTUM OF THE 17 PLAN. TAKE IT, MAYBE TO SOME NEW DEFINITION OF PRIORITIES AND REALLY THINK, IN MORE DETAIL ABOUT THE TRAIL NETWORKS BECAUSE YOU'VE GOT TO PRETTY STUNNING TRAIL SYSTEM IN VARIOUS PARTS OF TOWN. BUT ANYWAY, SO I'LL GO THROUGH THE PARK AND OPEN SPACE MASTER PLAN. THEN ANIMAL COME IN AND THEN GO INTO THE TRAIL MASTER PLAN. SO THESE ARE. THESE ARE WORKING IN TANDEM, BUT THEY'RE TWO SEPARATE FINAL DELIVERABLES. JUST THE NATURE OF HOW YOU'LL IMPLEMENT PIECES.

SO AGAIN, WE STARTED. ROUGHLY A YEAR AND A HALF AGO, PRE COVID GOT TO TOUR THE PARK SYSTEM, BUT WE WENT THROUGH REALLY TWO MAJOR STEPS, THE FIRST BEING LEARNING YOUR SYSTEM DOCUMENTING IT, UPDATING THINGS. SEEING EVERY SINGLE PART ALL THE DIFFERENT LAYERS INDOOR AND OUTDOOR. AND THEN FROM THAT WE BEGIN TO GET FEEDBACK OR NEEDS DEFINITION OF NEEDS OR PRIORITIES, AND THAT'S WHAT LEADS INTO PHASE TWO, WHICH IS WHERE YOU BUILD THE PLAN. WHAT WOULD YOU BE DOING YEAR BY YEAR, PIECES AND PARTS SO THAT THAT KIND OF GIVES US THE FRAMEWORK OF OUR STEPS. THE TWO MAJOR STEPS. MIKE MAY WANT TO COMMENT ON THIS. Y'ALL HAVE HAD A LOT OF OUTCOMES FROM 17 PLAN. THANK YOU. SO, YEAH, THAT'S THAT'S PERFECT. BY THE 2017 PLANNED SPECIFICS. WE HAVE DONE A GREAT JOB SO FAR. SO, FOR EXAMPLE, IT CALLED OUT 10 PARKS TO REALLY FOCUS ON RENOVATING AND IMPROVING. AS YOU CAN SEE, WE'VE DONE TWO ALREADY WERE UNDER CONSTRUCTION. ANOTHER ONE, EVERYTHING'S MASTER PLANNED FUNDING HITS OUR BOOKS OCTOBER 1ST TO MAKE THIS ALL REALITY SHOWS A SMALL EXAMPLE ABOUT HOW SINCE 2017.

WE'VE CHECKED A LOT OF BOXES SO FAR. SO AGAIN WHEN WE WHEN WE STEPPED IN, THINGS ARE HAPPENING. I MEAN, THERE'S ALWAYS PROJECTS JENNY WOULD SAY, HEY, THIS ONE'S GOING FORWARD, SO WE WERE GETTING NEW UPDATES. SO WE UNDERSTOOD THE CAPITAL INVESTMENT. THE NEW RECREATIONAL MIX. UM. AS WE THINK ABOUT THE DELIVERABLE. THE FINAL DELIVERABLE WILL BE DOCUMENT THAT CAPTURES THE WHOLE PROCESS. THE WAY WE WENT THROUGH THE STEPS OF INVENTORY.

SOME OF THE RECENT LOOK AT YOUR DEMOGRAPHICS AND THEN CERTAINLY HOW WE WOULD DEVELOP PRIORITIES AND BEGIN TO BUILD IMPLEMENTATION SECTION. SO THIS WILL AGAIN THIS WILL BE A STANDALONE DOCUMENT, BUT IT DOES CERTAINLY TIE BACK INTO THE 17 PLAN. REALLY NEED ON THE PARK'S INVENTORY. WHEN WE TOURED YOUR PARK SYSTEM, YOU HAD A RECENT PHOTO LIBRARY THAT WAS STUNNING A SERIES OF DRONE SHOTS AND ALL KINDS OF IMAGERY, BUT WE'RE ABLE TO CREATE STANDALONE PAGES FOR EVERY PARK. EVERY RESOURCE YOU HAVE IN YOUR SYSTEM. OFTENTIMES WE'LL SEE CLIENTS PUT THESE ON YOUR WEBSITE. IT'S AMAZING HOW OFTEN YOUR PEOPLE DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU HAVE TO OFFER. AND YOURS IS BIG. AND SO SOMEBODY IN DIFFERENT PART OF TOWN AND GO. WOW I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WE HAD THAT SO YOU CAN USE THIS IN VARIOUS WAYS TO ENGAGE CITIZENS. AGAIN WE DID A QUICK SNAPSHOT WORKING WITH SOME OF THE OTHER DEPARTMENTS OR INFORMATION WE WERE PROVIDED JUST ON THE DEMOGRAPHIC MIX. WHO ARE YOUR CUSTOMERS? I MEAN, YOU'RE IN A CUSTOMER BASE. BUSINESS RIGHT PARKS AND REC WITH THE TYPES OF AND EVEN TRENDS, TRANSIT COME AND GO. NOBODY IS SCREAMING FOR INLAND HOCKEY ON PAGE COURTS LIKE THEY WERE 25 YEARS AGO. IT'S JUST SO DIFFERENT. I MEAN, THERE'S STILL SOME OF THAT, BUT NOTHING LIKE IT WOULD HAVE BEEN IN A DIFFERENT WAVE OF INTEREST. SO WE HAVE TO LOOK AT THAT JUST TO SEE WHERE THE CUSTOMERS ARE. THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT. YOU KNOW, THIS BECOMES THE REAL PIVOT POINT OF THE WHOLE PLAN. HOW DO YOU DEFINE NEEDS? BECAUSE YOU'VE GOT TO BE ABLE TO THINK ABOUT A LOT OF NEEDS WITH A LOT OF DIFFERENT PARTS OF TOWN, AND EVEN WHEN YOU WORK WITH THE STATE EXPORTS IN MY LIFE, IF YOU EVER GET GRANT FUNDING AT ALL THEY WANT TO SEE HOW YOU'RE RESPONDING TO NEEDS TO FIND NEED TO QUANTIFY NEEDS. SO WE DID IT USING SOME YOU HAD SOME SURVEY INFORMATION FROM PRETTY RECENT THAT WE WERE ABLE TO TAP INTO, BUT WE DEVELOPED A SURVEY OR A SERIES OF QUESTIONS THAT WE WENT THROUGH WITH PART BOARD. CDC STAFF PARKS AND REC STEP IN OUR TEAM IN EACH OF THOSE GROUPS DID SOME INDEPENDENT ANALYSIS AND RANKINGS AND YOU BEGIN TO BRING ALL THAT TOGETHER, AND I COULD GET IN A LOT OF THE METRICS.

HAD A FATHER WAS AN ACCOUNTING PROFESSOR FOR 42 YEARS, BUT I WON'T DO THAT. I WON'T GO INTO THE METRICS, BUT IT WAS. IT'S A WAY TO REALLY BRING YOU TO DEFINE NEEDS IN YOUR SYSTEM BECAUSE YOU WANT TO. DO YOU REALLY WANT TO KEEP UP WITH THE CUSTOMER DEMANDS IN THE TYPES OF AGAIN YOUTH OR ADULT TRENDS THAT MIGHT BE IMPACTING. WHAT THEY WANT TO USE WHAT THEY WANT

[00:45:03]

TO HAVE YOUR HIGH PRIORITY. MODERATE HERE. THESE ARE YOUR OUTDOOR AGAIN. I'LL JUST TOUCH ON THEM. YOU HAVE THESE KINDS OF COMPONENTS THROUGHOUT YOUR SYSTEM WILL BE NEW INVESTMENTS.

FROM TRAILS TO LIGHTING THE DOWNTOWN PARK. WE'VE HEARD THAT TALKED ABOUT EVER SINCE WE CAME TO THE TABLE, RESTROOMS AND CONCESSIONS. SO SOME THINGS ARE VERY FUNDAMENTAL, THEIR INFRASTRUCTURE THAT YOU HAVE TO KEEP UP WITH. SOME ARE MORE KEEPING THE PART VIBRANT IN TERMS OF ITS USE, EVEN INTO THE EVENING WITH LIGHTING AND THINGS LIKE THAT. WE ALSO DID RANKINGS FOR INDOOR. THIS IS JUST A SNAPSHOT BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO THINK ABOUT THOSE INVESTMENTS AND YOU'VE GOT SOME PRETTY AWESOME INDOOR FACILITIES. NO DOUBT SO AGAIN.

THESE ARE SOME THINGS THAT CAME OUT OF THAT. THESE ARE JUST IMAGERY OF TYPES OF PROJECT WERE NOT SUGGESTING THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU GET. BUT YOU CAN SEE EXPANDING THE ADULT AND SENIOR ACTIVITIES INDOOR AND EVEN THE NATURE AND EVENT CENTER. NATURE BASED RECREATION IS A WHOLE NEW MOVEMENT, THE LAST 5 TO 10 YEARS THAT WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN AROUND 25 YEARS AGO, NOT IN THE SAME CAPACITY. BUT YOU SEE THAT MORE AND MORE IN URBAN PARK SYSTEMS IN SUBURBAN PARK SYSTEMS, THE NATURE OPPORTUNITY HUGE HAS EVEN INTO SCHOOL KIDS CURRICULUM AND THINGS LIKE THAT. WHEN WE LOOK AT THE SYSTEM WIDE MAPPING AND PLANNING EACH OF YOUR PARKS THEN CAN BE TIED BACK IN AGAIN. THIS IS A SIMPLIFIED KEY MAP ALMOST LIKE YOU WOULD SEE HIM. REGION OF STATE PARKS OR WHATEVER IN THE CITIZENS CAN BEGIN TO SEE AROUND TOWN THAT DIFFERENT NEED AND THEN EVENTUALLY THE DIFFERENT CAPITAL CAMPAIGNS THAT WOULD HELP YOU IMPLEMENT GETTING THOSE PIECES. OR UPDATE.

SOMETIMES IT'S JUST UPDATING PAVILIONS OR PLAYGROUNDS. THINGS LIKE THAT. ONE OF MY FAVORITE THINGS. YOU YOUR GROUP DID AND MIKE LED THE CHARGE IS CREATING THE STANDALONE PAGES OF HOW YOU THINK ABOUT IMPLEMENTATION PART OF MY PARK, AND I WANT HIM TO MENTION HOW THEY CAME UP WITH THIS, BUT HOW DO YOU RESTORE APART? YOU ENHANCE IT OR YOU RE IMAGINE IT. SO I'M GONNA THIS IS HIS. THIS IS HIS MESSAGE, SO THIS WILL HELP US WITH IDENTIFYING BUDGET NEEDS AS WE GO ALONG, SO RESTORED, THAT'S CHANGING OUR PLAYGROUND EQUIPMENT, KEEPING THE ESSENCE OF THE PART OF THE SAME. ENHANCING A PARK. THINK OF FINCH PARK. THE PARK IS HAS IT HAS BEEN FOR A LONG TIME, BUT WE'VE ADDED PICKLEBALL CHORDS. WE'VE ADDED MORE TRAILS TO ENHANCE THE OFFERINGS THERE. REIMAGINE IS COTTONWOOD PARK, SCRAPE IT DOWN AND BUILD A BRAND NEW PART FROM SCRATCH. SO EACH ONE OF OUR PARKS WILL HAVE THESE THREE OPTIONS GOING FORWARD THAT CAN BUILD. FOR INSTANCE, A CAT WOULD WE REIMAGINE FOR ANOTHER PART, MAY START WITH RESTORE AND OVER THE YEARS. GET MORE AND MORE AGGRESSIVE UNTIL THE ENTIRE PARK IS REDONE. AGAIN IT'S JUST A GREAT WAY TO THINK ABOUT THE LEVEL OF INVESTMENT IN WHAT YOU GET FROM THAT YOU CAN SEE THE NUMBERS NEXT TO EACH OF THOSE PROGRAM ELEMENTS ELEMENTS FOR 5 18 20. THOSE TIE BACK TO THE RANKING OF PROPERTY NEEDS, SO IT'S ALL KIND OF AGAIN WORKING TOGETHER AS YOU THINK ABOUT YEARLY CAPITAL CAMPAIGNS. ANOTHER THING TO COMMENT ON BRIEFLY WHEN WE THINK ABOUT PRIORITIES. YOU MAY HAVE A MODERATE OR A LOWER PROPERTY ATOM THAT RISES QUICKLY BECAUSE YOU HAVE A PARTNER OF FUNDING PARTNER. ANOTHER GROUP THAT CAN MAKE THAT BE REALIZED MORE QUICKLY. THIS DOES NOT MEAN YOU JUST ONLY DO THE FIRST. 1234 AND FIVE BEFORE YOU EVER GET TO 12, 13 AND 14. IT'S PRETTY DYNAMIC. WE'LL SEE CLIENTS AND ALL OF A SUDDEN AN ITEM COULD COME UP BECAUSE IT HAS OTHER FUNDING OR OTHER ENERGY BEHIND IT. THAT BRINGS IT. TO QUICKER IT JUST BRINGS IT INTO YOUR SYSTEM QUICKER, SO AND I KNOW THAT THAT PROBABLY HAPPENS EVERY YEAR. RIGHT NOW. SOMETIMES IT'S A IT'S A JOINT PROJECT WITH ONE OF THE OTHER DEPARTMENTS WHERE A TRAIL OR A CROSSING. EVEN A FOOT BRIDGE OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT MAY WORK WITH THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT AS IT RELATES TO DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENTS. ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS, NEW CIVILIZATION. THAT'S WHAT I CALLED SHARED INFRASTRUCTURE, SO THOSE KINDS OF OPPORTUNITIES HAPPEN EVERY YEAR. IN SUMMARY, YOU TAKE ALL THOSE PRIORITY NEEDS ALL THE PARKS AND WILL CREATE SOME SUMMARY CHARTS. IT'S ALMOST BEEN LIKE A THOROUGHFARE PLAN. WHERE YOU YOU JUST CREATE IDENTIFICATION OF THE TYPES OF COMPONENTS EACH PART, THE CITIZENS COULD UNDERSTAND THAT THEY CAN BEGIN TO UNDERSTAND.

WHEN THOSE MIGHT BEGIN TO HAPPEN. SOMETHING'S MAYBE TWO YEARS AWAY, SO MAYBE FIVE OR MORE YEARS AWAY. BUT THE STAFF WILL USE THIS A LOT YEAR BY YEAR. THIS IS AN ACTIVE PLAYBOOK. YOU WANT TO USE IT AND MAKE IT WORK FOR THEM IN YOUR STRATEGY OF FUNDING. SO I KNOW I'M MOVING QUICKLY. I WILL SAY AND OPEN IT UP. THE NUMBER ONE PROPERTY ITEM THAT CAME OUT OF ALL THAT RANKING TRAILS AGAIN. YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIND OF AMAZING TRAIL SYSTEM RIGHT NOW, AND YOU'VE GOT SOME UNIQUE SECTORS THAT MORE LINKAGES MORE LOOPS. MORE CONNECTIVITY COULD HAPPEN AND ADAM'S GOING TO GET INTO THAT. BUT THIS PLAN WORKING IN TANDEM NOW WITH THE TRAILS, WE RARELY GET TO DO TWO AT THE SAME TIME, I'M HERE IN MY CAREER BABY TWO OTHER TIMES.

IT ALLOWS ALL THIS BEGAN TO COME TOGETHER, SO I'M EXCITED ABOUT THE PARK MASTER PLAN. AND THEN WHAT? THE TRAIL MASTER PLAN, WHICH BECOMES ANOTHER DYNAMIC PIECE OF THAT AS A

[00:50:01]

STAND ALONE, SO. I'M MOVING FAST, AND I HOPE I HADN'T GONE TOO QUICKLY, BUT FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS OR YOU WANT TO GO BACK TO I'VE GOT A QUESTION. SURE. WHO ARE YOU? YES I DIDN'T DO MY INTRO LIKE I SHOULD HAVE PHILIP NEELY WITH DUNAWAY ASSOCIATES. IT'S AWESOME. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU, FELLOW. YOU'RE WELCOME. THE QUESTIONS. YEAH. THANK YOU, PHILIP. THANK YOU. SUGGESTS INTRODUCING YOURSELF ALL RIGHT. SOUNDS LIKE A PLAN. I'M ADAM BREWSTER. I'M ANOTHER LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT WITH DUNAWAY ASSOCIATES HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH PHILIP, OUR TEAM AND CITY STAFF. ON THE TRAILS, MASTER PLAN. AND I ECHO THE SENTIMENT OF MIKE AND FILL UP THE BALLOT. THE PARK AND OPEN SPACE AND TRAIL SYSTEM BEING SO ROBUST AND DIVERSE AND IN MCKINNEY. IN FACT, IT'S WHAT MAKES MCKINNEY SUCH A WONDERFUL PLACE TO LIVE AND SO DESIRABLE TO MOVE TO. AND MY IN LAWS. TOOK TRAILS INTO ACCOUNT WHEN THEY MOVED TO MCKINNEY FROM MIDLAND OVER 25 YEARS AGO AND. PROUD TO SAY MY FATHER IN LAW STILL USES THE TRAILS AT LEAST TWICE A WEEK, AND AS HE'S APPROACHING HIS 80TH BIRTHDAY, SO I'M EXCITED TO SEE THAT AND IT'S REALLY NEAT TO SEE YOUR TRAIL SYSTEM. ALREADY WAS ROBUST 25 YEARS AGO AND CONTINUES TO GROW AND EXPAND AND THAT YOU GUYS DO PLANS LIKE THIS AND THINK, UH, IN. IN ADVANCE OF HOW TO IMPROVE THAT, ALONG THE WAY SO. AS PHILIP MENTIONED, TRAILS MASTER PLAN. YEAH, IS MOVING ALONG AT THE SAME PACE AS THE OPEN SPACE PLAN, AND IT WORKED AT THE SAME TIME. BUT IT ALSO WORKS TOGETHER WITH MANY OF THE OTHER PLANS THAT YOU'VE ADOPTED AND THAT ARE WITHIN THE REGION. FOR EXAMPLE, YOUR THOROUGHFARE PLAN YOUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND THE SIX CITIES TRAIL PLAN FOR THE REGION AND NEIGHBORING CITIES. IT'S NOT JUST AN ISOLATION AND WE INFORM THEIR PLANS AND THEY INFORM OUR PLANS AND IT MAKES ALL OF THEM BETTER. OUR PLANNING PROCESS, THOUGH. A BIT DIFFERENT THAN THE PLANNING PROCESS FOR THE OPEN SPACE PLAN. AND IT'S A THREE PHASE PROCESS. WE AGAIN BEGIN BY ANALYZING THE WHOLE SYSTEM, SO JUST LIKE WITH THE PARKS, WE VISIT ALL THE CURRENT TRAILS. TAKE INVENTORY OF THOSE AND LOOK AT THOSE. BUT ALSO LOOK AT OPPORTUNITIES. FOR CONSTRAINTS FOR EXPANSION, SO THERE'S OPPORTUNITIES THAT WE LOOK FOR IS LIKE WHERE CAN YOU EXPAND YOUR TRAILS WHERE OUR TRAILS NEEDED TODAY AND WHERE WILL TRAILS BE NEEDED IN THE FUTURE? THEN WE TAKE THAT INFORMATION BACK AND WE BEGIN PUTTING IT TO MAPS AND WE START PUTTING THE PLANNING PROCESS IN, UH TO PAPER, AND THAT'S WHEN WE DEVELOP A CONCEPT TRAIL PLAN. AND WITH THAT WE LOOK AT THE DIFFERENT AREAS AND WHERE YOU GROW WHERE YOU'RE PLANNING TO GROW AND DIFFERENT STRATEGIES THAT YOU CAN USE WITHIN THE CITY AND THE DIFFERENT DEPARTMENTS AS THEY AND BEGIN TO IMPLEMENT THESE TRAILS. AND THEN THE NEXT STEP WITH THAT IS YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT ARE THE GUIDELINES AND STANDARDS THAT ARE NEEDED TO IMPLEMENT THESE AND THOSE BECOME THE GUIDELINES USED BY YOUR ENGINEERING STAFF AND YOUR. PLANNERS TO DO THAT, AND WE'VE IDENTIFIED MANY OF THOSE GUIDELINES WITHIN THIS PLAN, AND THAT WILL BE A TOOL FOR YOUR STAFF TO USE FOR YEARS TO COME. I'LL START WITH THE PLANNING PROCESS. THERE'S GOING TO BE MORE IN DEPTH THAN THIS IN YOUR, UM, FINAL REPORT. BUT THE VERY FIRST STEP THAT WE DO IS WE LOOK AT THE CITY AS A WHOLE, AND WE LOOK AT THE DIFFERENT CHARACTERS OWNS. AND WHAT I MEAN BY THAT IS WE LOOK AT THE DIFFERENT AREAS AND DIFFERENT SHADED COLORS HERE, AND EACH OF THOSE IDENTIFIES. DIFFERENT CHARACTER OR DIFFERENT CONTEXT BECAUSE OF THE TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT THAT'S THEY'RE THE TYPE OF TRAILS THAT ARE THERE OR THE TYPE OF. USERS WITHIN THAT SPACE AND THE DIFFERENT LAND USES. WE KNOW THAT. THERE ARE EXTENSIVE TRAILS IN THE SOUTHWEST PORTION, BUT WE ALSO KNOW THAT YOU'VE GOT EMERGING RESIDENTIAL IN THE NORTH. SO THE DIFFERENT STRATEGIES THAT YOU'RE GOING TO IMPLEMENT ARE GOING TO BE DIFFERENT AND DEPENDING ON WHICH SECTION THE CITY YOU'RE LOOKING AT ANOTHER INTERESTING.

UNIQUE FEATURE TO THE CITY OF MCKINNEY IS THE FACT THAT YOU HAVE THE GREEN BELT THAT YOU HAVE WILSON CREEK GREENBELT, BUT YOU ALSO HAVE A SECONDARY GREENBELT. IT'S A GREAT OPPORTUNITY THAT CUTS DIAGONALLY THROUGH THE CITY AS WELL. THAT REALLY DOES A LOT ABOUT BRINGING THAT NATURE CLOSER TO THE RESIDENTS AND THE USERS OF THE TRAILS AND THE RESIDENTS OF THE CITY. AND IT'S YOU GUYS TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT TODAY, BUT IT'S A GREAT ASSET IN A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO LOOK AT FOR FUTURE DEVELOPMENT AS WELL. THIS IMAGE IS A MAP OF

[00:55:03]

THE OVERALL MASTER PLAN, AND YOU CAN SEE THERE'S A LOT OF OPPORTUNITY HERE. THERE'S A LOT OF PLANS, PLANNED TRAIL CORRIDORS AND SEGMENTS. BIT LOOKS A BIT LIKE A SPAGHETTI BECAUSE THERE'S SO MUCH INFORMATION IN THERE. YOUR CITY IS SO EXPANSIVE AND THERE IS ALREADY SO MANY TRAILS IN THAT SO WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DO HERE IS KIND OF LOOK AT IT, UM. AND LOOK AT THE BIG MOVES THAT WOULD GO INTO MAKING THIS TRAIL PLAN, SO I'M GOING TO KIND OF STEP BACK A LITTLE BIT. AND LOOK AT THOSE AND THAT'LL BE YOUR GUIDELINE AND YOUR GUIDING PRINCIPLES THAT WENT INTO INFORMED THAT MAP. YOU JUST SAW. THE BIGGEST GROWTH OPPORTUNITY. WE SEE IT'S NO NEWS TO ANYBODY HERE THAT MCKINNEY'S GROWING NORTH AND YOU GO NORTH OF 3 80. YOU'RE STARTING TO SEE THOSE NEW DEVELOPMENTS OCCUR. SO WE SAY, AS YOU GO NORTH, YOU NEED TO BUILD THAT FRAMEWORK UP IN THAT AREA. THE TRAIL SYSTEMS AREN'T AS ROBUST TODAY. BUT IN THE FUTURE. WE ANTICIPATE THAT YOU WILL NEED TO KEEP PACE WITH DEVELOPMENT OF HOMES AND BUSINESSES IN THAT AREA WITH THE SAME LEVEL OF DEVELOPMENT OF TRAILS AND THAT SAME IN THAT REGION. SO YOU DON'T WANT TO ENCOURAGE GROWTH IN THAT AREA AND YOU'RE GOING TO WANT TO WORK WITH YOUR PARTNERS. SAY YOUR DEVELOPERS AND YOUR DIFFERENT DEPARTMENTS AT THE CITY TO IMPLEMENT THESE CORRIDORS WERE ILLUSTRATING HERE. MANY OF THEM ARE ALONG ARTERIALS, SO THEY CAN CREATE THE NORTH, SOUTH AND EAST WEST GRID. WITH YOUR ENGINEERING STAFF AND ON YOUR ROADWAYS OR UTILIZING CORRIDORS FOR UTILITIES. SO YOU HAVE SOME GOOD ACCESS THROUGH THOSE POINTS. BUT IT'S IMPORTANT TO POINT OUT HERE THAT ZIGZAG LINE THROUGH THE MIDDLE THERE REPRESENTS NEW DEVELOPMENT. THE PAINTED TREE DEVELOPMENT AND THAT IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE THEY'VE GOT A BENT TOWARDS TRAILS. BUT YOU'RE WORKING TOGETHER IN YOUR CITY STAFF DOES A GREAT JOB OF. I'M WORKING WITH THOSE DEVELOPERS TO INCORPORATE AND ADD. ADD TRAIL LINKS AND SEGMENTS TO WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE. SO THAT TRAIL SEGMENT WITH PAINTED TREE WILL LINK FROM 3 80. UP TO A NEW PARKLAND THAT YOU HAVE, UM. AND THEN THROUGH THAT TO IRWIN PARK, SO THAT'S ANOTHER SEVERAL MILE OF TRACK OF, UH. LENGTH OF TRAIL THAT YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE AVAILABLE TO THE RESIDENTS, ESPECIALLY IN THE NORTH SECTION. THIS IS A BIG CAN I INTERRUPT YOU FROM MINUTE? SURE, CERTAINLY. THAT THE. THAT YOU HAVE UP RIGHT NOW. DOES IT SAY BUILD THE FRAMEWORK ON IT? BECAUSE I'M I'M BEHIND. YES, IT HAS BUILT THE FRAMEWORK. AND NOW I'M JUST SWITCHING IT, SAYS TRAIL MASTER PLAN. A QUESTION ON THE WILSON CREEK GREENBELT. THERE'S A LITTLE. NODDED LINES THROUGH THERE. CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT THAT IS? CERTAINLY YES. THE SOLID LINES REPRESENT EXISTING TRAILS THAT ARE IN PLACE AND THE DOTTED LINES REPRESENT PROPOSED EXTENSIONS OR NEW SEGMENTS OF TRAILS. YOU CAN SEE WHEN YOU LOOK AT THIS MAP THE VARYING COLORS. UM.

REPRESENT THE TRUCK TIMES. SEE IT AND THANK YOU FOR SWITCHING THAT OVER SO I CAN TELL. WELL THE REASON I WAS ASKING IS, UH, WHERE I BELIEVE WE'RE PUTTING A SEWER OR NORTH TEXAS MUNICIPAL WATER DISTRICT IS PUTTING A SEWER LINE ALONG THAT CREEK RIGHT NOW. ORIGIN, THE PLANNING OR. BUILDING PROCESS AND I'VE ALWAYS SEEN THAT IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO GO AHEAD AND PUT A TRAIL THERE AT THE SAME TIME SINCE THEY HAVE THE EASEMENT IS FOLLOWING ALONG THE CREEK. THAT WOULD LINK UH, TUCKER HILL AND THOSE NEIGHBORHOODS NORTH OF 3 80. AND IT ALSO HAS A. Y TO PASS UNDERNEATH 3 80 IS THAT IN THE WORKS? WHERE ARE WE ON THAT? DO YOU KNOW? JASMINE PHILLIPS MAJKOWSKI HERE. SO, UH, YES. OUR INTENTION, OF COURSE, IS TO USE THE EASEMENTS CREATED IN THAT CORRIDOR FOR TRAILS BOTH HARD TRAILS AND NATURAL TRAILS. WE ARE STILL WORKING WITH NORTH TEXAS AND EXACT LOCATIONS, BUT THAT'S AN ACTIVE DISCUSSION. OKAY? AND I APPRECIATE THAT. AND WHAT SPEAKING I DO WANT TO SHARE SOMETHING WITH ALL OF YOU KNOW, UH, GERAIS WAS THERE AT OUR LAST MEETING IN THE MAYOR WAS THERE AT OUR LAST MEETING ON BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS. WE HAVE A GENTLEMAN WHO WAS THE POSITION WHO WAS APPLYING TO BE ON OUR BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS. I BELIEVE YOU 77 YEARS OF AGE AND HAD DONE A FAMILY PRACTICE THERE IN GEORGETOWN. AND HE WAS SIMPLY RAVING ABOUT OUR PARK SYSTEM AND ALL THE GREAT WORK THAT YOU GUYS HAVE DONE, AND I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT I PUBLICLY PASSED THAT ON YOU, MR

[01:00:06]

COW SKIN. ALL OF THE MEMBERS OF YOUR DEPARTMENT BECAUSE. YOUR GREAT WORK IS ABUNDANTLY OBVIOUS OTHERS AND HE'S RELATIVELY NEW YEAR TO MCKENNY, AND HE COULDN'T SAY ENOUGH GOOD THINGS ABOUT OUR PART SYSTEMS. SO KUDOS TO EACH AND ALL OF YOU AND THANK YOU FOR THE EXTREMELY GOOD WORK. OKAY MIKE SAYS THANK YOU, AND I CAN ECHO THAT SENTIMENT AS WELL. ALL RIGHT.

I'M GOING TO MOVE FORWARD TO THE NEXT BIG MOVE WITHIN THIS. TRAILS MASTER PLAN. AND. THIS IS CREATING A GREEN BELT TRAIL LOOP AROUND THE CITY AND TO DO THAT. YOU CAN SEE HERE WE HAVE IDENTIFIED THE WILSON GREEK GREENBELT AS AN EXISTING TRAIL. BUT THEN, UH, PARTNERING WITH DEVELOPMENT OF THE NEW ARTERIALS AND 3 86. UM. BYPASS TO DEVELOP THE LINKS THAT WILL CONNECT OVER TO HONEY CREEK GREENBELT, AND THAT WILL DEVELOP INTO POTENTIALLY 25 MILES, SO YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO RUN ALMOST A MARATHON AROUND THIS. THE CITY OF MCKINNEY WITHOUT. HAVING TO INTERACT WITH TRAFFIC AND BE ON A SHARED USE PATHS. THAT'S NICE. RIGHT, SO MOVING TO THE SOUTH PORTION OF THE SITE. THE CONCEPT THAT WE WANTED TO ILLUSTRATE, AND OUR THAT IS GUIDING OUR PLANNING PROCESS IN THIS AREA IS FILLING THE GAPS.

AND THIS IS THE AREA IN THE SOUTH, WHERE A LOT OF THE. OLDER NEIGHBORHOODS ARE IN SOME OF THE ESTABLISHED RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS ARE AS WELL. I'M GOING TO TAKE THE SOUTHWEST FIRST. THEN WE'LL JUMP OVER TO THE SOUTHEAST, THE SOUTHWEST, WHERE STONE BRIDGE AND SOME OF THOSE OTHER. MATURE NEIGHBOURHOODS ARE THAT HAVE EXTENSIVE TRAILS IN THESE AREAS? THERE'S JUST A FEW GAPS THAT NEED TO BE CONNECTED AND CREATED THAT CAN MAKE. ADD FOR MORE CONNECTIVITY THROUGH THE AREA, AND THEN THERE'S OPPORTUNITY FOR EXPANSION TO THE SOUTH OF SILVERADO AND INTO THE CITY OF ALAN, WHICH IS ALREADY SET UP WITH TRAILS READY TO RECEIVE. AND ALLOW RESIDENTS TO BIKE EVEN FURTHER SOUTH THAT THEY DESIRE. IF WE MOVE OVER TO YOU ACQUIRE THE LAND, IT IS PRIVATE PROPERTY JUST TO FILL A GAP FOR YOU KNOW IF YOU'RE DOING THAT EIGHT FT SIDEWALK. ARE EVEN SMALLER. OKAY I MEAN, DO WE HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE EMINENT DOMAIN? DO WE APPROACH THE LANDOWNER AND TRY AND NEGOTIATE WITH THEM? DO WE HAVE A PROGRAM LIKE THAT? ALL THE GAPS THAT EXIST OUT THERE. UH I THINK WE HAVE TO TAKE THOSE ON A CASE BY CASE BASIS. BUT WHAT WE'RE ILLUSTRATING HERE, ALL OF THESE ARE WITHIN THE RIGHT WAY OF EXISTING ARTERIALS OR IN CONJUNCTION WITH FUTURE ROADWAYS. THERE ARE OPPORTUNITIES FOR MAKING THESE CONNECTIONS. SO EVERYTHING YOU SEE WITHIN THE MAP ON THE SOUTH WEST SECTOR WOULD FALL WITHIN EXISTING RIGHT AWAY OR LAND CONTROLLED BY THE CITY ALREADY. IT WILL. I THINK THAT WASN'T FAIR QUESTION FOR YOU BEING A CONSULTANT. ALL GOT RESERVES THAT FOR MR KOWSKI, LIKE I THINK MIKE WILL DISCUSS SETTLE BIT MORE WHEN WE SHOW A SAMPLE PROJECT BECAUSE I THINK THAT'S ONE OF THE ONE OF THE ITEMS. OF CONCERN, SO WE'LL LET HIM GET TO THAT. MOVING OVER TO THE SOUTHEAST. THIS IS WHERE WE ARE TODAY. THIS IS MORE OF THE TRADITIONAL DEVELOPMENT. THE HEART OF MCKINNEY HERE YOU'VE GOT DOWNTOWN AND YOU CAN SEE TOWN LAKE PARK AND YOU'VE GOT SOME ADDITIONAL PARK PROPERTY THERE. DOUGLAS PARK PROPERTY THAT ENDOW PROPERTY THAT ARE ACQUIRED BY THE CITY WITH THESE THE NEIGHBORHOODS ARE A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT IN DESIGN, AND THERE ARE MORE TRADITIONAL NEIGHBORHOOD, SO YOU HAVE A GRIDDED NETWORK AND SIDEWALKS. SO THE TRAILS AND BICYCLISTS USE THE ON STREET SYSTEM OR A BICYCLE BOULEVARD PROGRAM. YOU'VE GOT WITHIN MUCH OF THIS AREA, BUT THERE'S CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THE EXISTING PARKS AT TOWN LAKE MENTIONED DOUGLAS PROPERTY. OLD SETTLERS PARK, BUT THERE ARE SOME GAPS WITHIN THAT. AND THOSE ARE THE GAPS THAT WE WOULD LOOK TO FILL WITHIN THIS PROJECT. YOU CAN SEE THAT LINK BETWEEN DOWNTOWN.

YOU CAN MAKE THAT CONNECTION TO TOWN LAKE PARK YOUR THEN IN THE WILSON CREEK GREENBELT, AND YOU HAVE ANOTHER SIX MILES OF TRAIL THAT YOU COULD BIKE SO IF YOU WERE IN DOWNTOWN YOU COULD GET.

TO THAT NATURAL SETTING, OR IF YOU ARE A RESIDENT ON THE WEST SIDE OF TOWN, YOU COULD GET TO THE GREEN BELT AND THEN WIND HER WAY THROUGH A PARKING TRAIL ALL THE WAY TO DOWNTOWN. SO THAT THAT'S THE IDEA OF FILLING THE GAPS WITHIN THERE, AND YOU CAN SEE IT'S A BIT DIFFERENT, DEPENDING ON THE CONTEXT IN THE AREA OF THE CITY THAT YOU'RE IN, BUT AS YOU ZOOM IN A BIT

[01:05:01]

CLOSER, WE'RE IN DOWNTOWN HERE. YOU CAN SEE THE DASH LINES, THE YELLOW AND THE PURPLE REPRESENT THE YELLOW BEING OFF STREET TRAILS LIKE YOU WOULD SEE YOUR SIDE PATH ADJACENT TO A ROADWAY. THERE ARE TRAILS WITHIN THIS DISTRICT THAT ALLOW YOU TO BYPASS DOWNTOWN, SAY COMING FROM FINCH PARK AND EVENTUALLY FROM THE TOWN LAKE ON THE SOUTH. OVER TO OLD SETTLERS ON THE EAST. THERE ARE OTHER TRAIL. TRAILS PROPOSED THAT WILL BRING YOU CLOSER AND INTO THE DOWNTOWN AREA. AND ONCE YOU REACH THE DOWNTOWN AREA, WE DON'T KNOW THAT HAS A UM. LIFE OF ITS OWN, AND IT HAS VERY IT'S. GOT A HIGH TOURISM OPPORTUNITY. YOU GUYS. USED THAT TODAY, THERE'S PLENTY OF EVENTS AND THINGS THAT GO OUT THERE. UM. WE WOULD LOOK TO CAPITALIZE ON THAT AND CONTINUE TO BUILD ON THAT AND WORK WITH YOUR STAFF TO DEVELOP. UM.

TOURISM WITHIN THAT DISTRICT, BUT THE TRAILS MAY TAKE A DIFFERENT, UM GEOMETRY OR SHAPE OR SIZE WITHIN THAT, SO THE HIERARCHY WOULD CHANGE THE TRAILS WOULD CHANGE TO SMALLER AND MORE DETAILED. TRAILS AND PATHWAYS AND PERHAPS AN OPPORTUNITY TO INCORPORATE FEATURES LIKE YOU SEE IN OTHER CITIES. THIS IS AN EXAMPLE IN BOSTON. IT'S THE FREEDOM TRAIL.

IT'S A SIMPLE TO, UH. BRICK WIDE BAND THAT CONNECTS HISTORICALLY SIGNIFICANT AREAS WITHIN THE CITY OF BOSTON, AND IT HAS GENERATED TOURISM FOR THEM AND IT BECOMES, UM AN ATTRACTION UNIQUE TO THEIR CITY. OTHER CITIES HAVE DONE THAT ON A SMALLER SCALE. FOR EXAMPLE, ASHEVILLE, NORTH CAROLINA HAS MORE CULTURAL AND HISTORICAL THINGS, UM, RELATIVE TO THEIR THEIR CITY, AS WELL AS PUBLIC ART. AND AREAS OF INTEREST THAT MAY TELL A STORY.

SO YOU SEE, THERE'S AN OPPORTUNITY TO HIGHLIGHT THOSE AREAS OF INTEREST IN YOUR DOWNTOWN TODAY, BUT THEN ALSO MAYBE PARTNERING WITH YOUR OTHER PROGRAMMING FOR INCORPORATION OF PUBLIC ART AS WELL TO MAKE SURE THAT TIES INTO THE TRAIL SYSTEM IN THE FUTURE. SO I'M KIND OF GOING QUICKLY THROUGH HERE, AND I APPRECIATE YOU GUYS STICKING WITH US. AND IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, WE CAN ANSWER THOSE BUT WANTED TO STEP BACK AND SHOW YOU THE TRAIL MASTER PLAN ONE MORE TIME. YOU CAN SEE THERE ARE A LOT OF. TRAILS WITHIN THEIR AND THEIRS WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT THIS TRAIL. YOU'VE GOT TO THINK ABOUT HOW TO IMPLEMENT THIS. AND WHAT ARE THE STAGES YOU DO TO IMPLEMENT IT? AND HOW DO YOU DO THAT? SO WE'VE DEVELOPED AGAIN THOSE RECOMMENDATIONS AND THOSE GUIDELINES THAT ARE USED BY YOUR STAFF. AND THINGS THAT YOU CAN GIVE TO DEVELOPERS AS THEY COME IN TO DO THEIR PROJECTS SO THAT YOU KNOW THAT THOSE TRILLS THEY DEVELOP ARE IN STANDARD WITH WHAT YOU ALREADY OFFERING.

SO HERE ARE SOME EXAMPLES OF THE DIFFERENT STANDARDS THAT WE, UM, ARE INCORPORATING INTO THE TRAIL MASTER PLAN. THERE'S THE DIFFERENT TYPE OF TRAILS THERE'S THE ON STREET BIKE BOULEVARDS. AND THEN OTHER ELEMENTS LIKE PORTALS, BRANDING AND CROSSINGS THAT GO INTO MAKING MAKING THESE TRAILS, NOT JUST. PIECES OF TRANSPORTATION BUT UNIQUE EXPERIENCES. AND THEN THIS IS ONE OF THE OPPORTUNITIES I MENTIONED IN THE SOUTHEAST PORTION. MIKE, YOU MAY WANT TO MENTION THIS, BUT WE WERE TASKED WITH IDENTIFYING SEVERAL PROJECTS FOR STRATEGIC IMPLEMENTATION OF THE PROGRAM. THANK YOU. THIS IS A GREAT EXAMPLE ABOUT HOW WE HAVE A SMALL GAP SOMEWHERE THAT CAN JOIN TWO AREAS OF THE CITY TOGETHER SO BETWEEN DOWNTOWN IN TOWN LAKE VIA FINCH, OR BIO VENTURES, A GAP OF ABOUT A QUARTER MAIL. COSMIC PHILLIPS THAT'S ON PRIVATE PROPERTY THAT GAP, SO WE REACHED OUT TO RESIDENTS AND SEE, MAKE SURE THEY UNDERSTAND THAT WE ARE INTERESTED IN THE EASEMENT OR SIMILAR INSTRUMENT. ACROSS THE PROPERTY TO MEET THAT GAP. AND SO WE'RE ALWAYS LOOKING FOR THOSE OPPORTUNITIES TO DO THAT VERY THING. I THINK. I MENTIONED THAT QUARTER MILE. LINK WILL CREATE A NEW SIX MILE SEGMENT FROM DOWNTOWN ALL THE WAY TO THE END OF WILSON CREEK. I MENTIONED THE OTHER STANDARDS THAT ARE IN PLACE. THESE ARE THE FEATURES THAT YOU SEE ON THE TRAILS THAT ARE AMENITIES AND SERVER FUNCTIONS SUCH AS YOUR 911. UM. CALLS SIGNAGE, UH, POSSIBLY NEW TRAIL HEADS THAT ARE IN STRATEGIC LOCATIONS AND THEN MONUMENT STATION, TO BRANDON. MAKE THIS UNIQUE AND.

CONSISTENT WITH THE REST OF MCKINNEY'S PARKS. SO THOSE ARE SOME OF THE REST RECOMMENDATIONS AND THAT'S KIND OF AN OVERALL PLAN WOULD GLADLY TAKE ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE.

WE'RE EXCITED TO SEE THIS PROJECT. COME TO COMPLETION PARALLEL WITH THE TRAILS ARE THE PARKING OPEN SPACE PLAN. WE THINK THAT THEY CAN COME TOGETHER AND HELP LEAD TO SOME

[01:10:01]

NEW PROJECTS. NEW DEVELOPMENT FOR YOUR PARK SYSTEM. JUST LIKE TO MAKE A COMMENT FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW THERE'S A GREAT TOOL ON THE WEBSITE THAT'S A TRAIL LOCATOR. YOU CAN LOCATE TRAILS AND WE HAVE 60 SOME MILES OF TRAILS WITHIN THE CITY OF MCKINNEY. AND THERE IS A LOCATOR THAT CAN. UTILIZE UH, GREAT, SUPER EASY, USER FRIENDLY. OKAY, WHERE ALL THOSE TRAILS ARE FOR THIS MARATHON PREPS THEIR BRICK AND MHM. I DO THAT. SO. I DON'T KNOW. IT'S THERE. PLEASE LOOK IT UP. IT'S GREAT. SO WE CURRENTLY HAVE 60 PLUS MILES OF TRAIL. WHAT IS THE TOTAL BUILD OUT HERE THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT? IF WE TOOK ALL OF THIS. YEAH I DON'T KNOW OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD, BUT YOU'RE LOOKING CLOSER TO 100 MILES AFTER YOU GET THE FULL LOOP IN. I THINK THE HONEY CREEK GREENBELT WILL BE A LARGE SEGMENT OF THAT, AND THAT LOOP ALONG WITH ALL THE ARTERIALS AS THEY'RE IMPLEMENTED. HOW DO WE STAND AS FAR AS OTHER CITIES? AND I WILL SING. WE'RE WAY OTHER CITIES, BUT IT'S JUST ME LOOKING AT WHAT WE HAVE. YEAH.

HAVE I DON'T RECOLLECT THE CITY STANDARD THAT KIND OF, UH, THROUGH ANY DARPA, BUT. I KNOW THAT YOU GUYS HAVE A SIGNIFICANT AND MORE EXTENSIVE TRAIL SYSTEM THAN MOST CITIES, ESPECIALLY AROUND, UH, NORTH DALLAS AREA. COULDN'T TELL YOU. NUMBERS OTHER THAN ITS EXTENSIVE AND PLEASANT TO RIDE OR WALK. WE'RE GONNA WIN THIS REALLY QUICK. THANK YOU. GOOD ALL RIGHT, SO NEXT STEPS THAT STAFF WERE GOING THROUGH A FIRST DRAFT DOCUMENT. THIS IS A SNEAK PEEK AT SOME OF THE HIGHLIGHTS. WHAT? COME BACK IN A MONTH OR SO. POTENTIALLY WITH AN ADOPTION READY UPDATE TO THE MASTER PLAN AND ALSO TRAILS PLAN. SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR TIME. THANK YOU GUYS. RIGHT? 210668 PRESENTATION ON THE PAVEMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN.

[Presentation on the Pavement Management Plan]

SAYS FAR LESS EXCITING GETTING. WOW. YEAH, IT'S GOING TO BE VERY EXCITED ABOUT OUR NEW SO GOOD AFTERNOON, MAYOR. MAYOR PRO TEM AND CITY COUNCIL. MY NAME TRYIN, GILLING HAM. I AM THE PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR SINCE IS MY FIRST PRESENTATION IN FRONT OF YOU ALL WANT TO LET YOU KNOW THAT I'M VERY EXCITED TO BE HERE AND LOOKING FORWARD TO SERVING THE CITIZENS OF MCKINNEY. SO FIRST THING I WANT TO INTRODUCE THE TEAM THAT PUT TOGETHER THE PAYMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN. FIRST STEVE TILTON, ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER, PAUL SPARKMAN, ASSISTANT DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS, AND HE GUARDS THE STREET SUPERINTENDENT TO MEET ROMAN WHO'S OUR CIVIL ENGINEER WITH PUBLIC WORKS? I THINK GARY GRAHAM IN THE BACK DIRECTOR OF ENGINEERING. NOT WITH US TODAY IS NEGATIVE CAPITAL PROJECTS MANAGER AND OUR CONSULTANT, DR SERIOUS SALVIA WHO PUT ALL THE DATA TOGETHER THAT WILL BE SEEN LATER IN THIS REPORT. SO WE'VE BROKEN UP TONIGHT'S PRESENTATION INTO TWO PARTS. SO THE FIRST PART TONIGHT IS ABOUT DATA AND THEN INTRODUCING FUNDING SCENARIOS. THE SECOND PIECE OF THE PRESENTATION WILL BE ABOUT FUNDING SCENARIOS AND FUTURE REVENUE DISCUSSIONS, WHICH WERE PLANNING TO COME BACK. SEVERAL MONTHS TO THE COUNCIL TO DISCUSS. SO FIRST. WHERE DOES THE CITY IN MCKINNEY HAVE SO IN THE CITY MCKINNEY THERE ARE 1700 LANE MILES OF ROADWAY. THAT'S FURTHER THAN IN DISTANCE FROM HERE TO NEW YORK CITY. TEXT DOT HAS 815 MILLION MILES AND I SHOULD BACK UP. THIS INCLUDES THE E. T. J AS WELL. COLLIN COUNTY HAS 128 LAND MILES, AND THEN THERE'S 115 MILES OF PRIVATE ROADWAYS IN TERMS OF RESPONSIBILITIES, PUBLIC WORKS IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE MAINTENANCE OF THE ROADWAYS.

ENGINEERING IS RESPONSIBLE. FOR RESURFACING IN RECONSTRUCTING THE ROADWAYS, THE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION OF THOSE RECONSTRUCTIONS. IN TERMS OF FUNDING. UM THE CITY SPENDS ABOUT $2.8 MILLION PER YEAR ON MAINTENANCE AND ABOUT $6.5 MILLION PER YEAR ON CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS. THE PURPOSE OF THE PAVEMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN. THERE'S REALLY THREE PARTS. THE FIRST PART IS DATA COLLECTION. WHICH IS REALLY WHAT WHAT'S THE CONDITION OF THE ROADWAY? SECOND PIECE IS WHAT DO THE REHABILITATION STRATEGIES ASSOCIATED WITH THAT PAVEMENT CONDITION INDEX SCORE, AND THE THIRD PART IS HOW MUCH DOES IT COST? THESE THREE COMPONENTS ARE PUT TOGETHER REALLY TO SUPPORT DATA DRIVEN DECISIONS. IT PROVIDES AN ORGINAL RANKING OF THE DIFFERENT STREETS IN TERMS OF WHAT STREETS ARE GOING TO BE NEXT IN TERMS OF RESURFACING. IT ALSO PROVIDES INFORMATION FOR PUBLIC WORKS IN TERMS OF WHERE WE'RE GOING TO DO, CRACK, SEALING OR PATCHING AS WELL. THEN. LASTLY IT'S A COMMUNICATION TOOL FOR THE COMMUNITY. SO IF A RESIDENT CALLS UP AND SAYS, WHERE'S MY STREET RANK IN TERMS OF, YOU KNOW, WHERE IS IT NEXT ON THE LIST. THIS HELPS COMMUNICATE THAT IN TERMS OF A SCORE, WHICH WE'LL TALK ABOUT IN A LITTLE BIT. IT'S INDUSTRY STANDARD TO RECOMMEND TO COMPLETE THIS REPORT EVERY 3 TO 5 YEARS. SO THE LAST PAYMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN WAS COMPLETED BY MCKINNEY

[01:15:04]

IN 2015, AND YOU'LL SEE SOME OF THAT DATA LATER, UM, THE CITY COUNCIL APPROVED THE CONTRACT WITH FIGARO CONSULTANTS. TO UPDATE THE PAYMENT MANAGEMENT PLAN IN NOVEMBER, AND SO FOR THE LAST TWO QUARTERS, WE'VE BEEN COLLECTING THAT DATA AND ANALYZING THAT DATA, AND THEN WE'RE HERE TONIGHT TO PRESENT THAT DATA TO YOU. AND THEN, AS I TALKED ABOUT EARLIER AND A COUPLE MONTHS WE'LL BE TALKING ABOUT FUNDING OPTIONS FOR THE ROADWAYS. SO FIRST. WHAT DOES THE PAVEMENT CONDITION INDEX SCORE, SO IT'S A SCORE FROM 0 TO 100 THAT GIVES A GENERAL OVERALL CONDITION OF EACH INDIVIDUAL STREET. IT TELLS US INFORMATION ABOUT. WHAT KIND OF REPAIRS MAY BE NEEDED ON THAT STREET AND ALSO HELPS ASSIGNED COST TO WHAT THOSE STREETS ARE.

SO IT GOES FROM 00 TO 101 100 IS A STREET THAT WAS JUST RECONSTRUCTED. ZERO IS A STREET THAT IS HAS FAILED. AND SO YOU CAN SEE ABOVE THOSE. WE ALSO ASSIGN WHAT I'LL CALL SUBJECT ARE SUBJECTIVE CRITERIA FOR THE DIFFERENT ZONES HAVE FAILED, SERIOUS POOR. SATISFACTORY AS WELL. IT'S IMPORTANT TO LOOK AT THAT COLOR CODING SCHEME BECAUSE YOU'RE GOING TO SEE THAT ON A MAP LATER, WHICH HELPS IDENTIFY AREAS WITHIN THE CITY THAT NEED TO BE THEY NEED TO BE FIXED. SO WHAT WE WANTED TO DO NEXT IS PROVIDE YOU ECONOMY OVERALL ASSESSMENT OF WHAT THESE DIFFERENT NUMBERS MEAN. SO ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE, YOU'RE GOING TO SEE AN ASPHALT STREET ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE, YOU'LL SEE A CONCRETE STREET. THE INTENT HERE IS NOT TO COMPARE THE MATERIALS OF ASPHALT AND CONCRETE, BUT RATHER TO TALK ABOUT THE DIFFERENT FAILURE MECHANISMS THAT EXIST FOR THOSE DIFFERENT TYPES OF MATERIAL. SO THESE ROADS ARE IN REALLY GOOD CONDITION. IS THERE GOOD TO SATISFACTORY ROADWAYS PCS GREATER THAN SEVENTIES? SO YOU SEE THE ASPHALT STREET ON THE LEFT IN 84. CONCRETE STREET ON THE RIGHT, WHICH IS A 90. NEXUS FAIR CONDITIONS. THESE ARE ROADWAYS THAT ARE 55 TO 70. SO ON THE LEFT, YOU'LL SEE AN ASPHALT STREET OF 59. RIGHT, 60, SO ON THE ASPHALT, YOU'LL SEE SOME CRACK SEALING THAT HAS TAKEN PLACE ON THE CONCRETE, SOME PATCHING. THE RIGHT ABILITY OF THE ROADWAY IS FAIRLY GOOD. AND I FORGOT TO MENTION ALL OF THESE STREETS THAT YOU'RE SEEING HERE ARE ACTUAL STREETS WITHIN MCKINNEY. NEXT IS POOR TO VERY POOR SO 25 TO 55 IS THE SCORES. UM WHAT YOU'RE STARTING TO SEE ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE YOU CAN'T SEE IN THE PICTURE. THERE IS WHAT WE CALL LIKE ALLIGATOR CRACKING ON THE ROADWAY. ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE. YOU'RE SEEING THE CONCRETE FAIL. THERE MIGHT BE, UM. SOME PANEL REPLACEMENTS REQUIRED ON THIS ROADWAY ON THE ASPHALT RAILWAY AND MAY REQUIRE RESURFACING, WHICH ARE MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE TREATMENT METHODS. AND THEN NOW THESE ROADS ARE RECEIVED THE SCORE OF LESS THAN 25. THESE ARE THE SERIOUS TO FAIL CONDITION. THESE ROADS REQUIRE REPLACEMENT SO FULL RECONSTRUCTION, SO YOU'LL SEE A PC SCORE OF NINE. PC SCORE 17 SO ONE ON THE LEFT.

YOU'RE SEEING JUST PATCHES OVER PATCHES AND ON THE RIGHT. YOU CAN SEE HOW THAT CONCRETE HAS DETERIORATED IN HIS CORRECT. SO IT'S REALLY LET ME ASK A QUESTION. TURN IT BACK TO THE OTHER. THE OTHER ONE. UM YOU SAY THE CONCRETE IS FAILING. I MEAN, LIKE. THAT STREET. YOU SEE A BUNCH OF CRACKS, BUT YOU DON'T SEE POTHOLES UNITS. YOU'RE NOT SAYING I MEAN TO ME THAT IT WHEN YOU SAY THE STREETS FAILING. THAT SEEMS VERY DRY VERBAL. IT SEEMS LIKE NOBODY WOULD EVEN THINK TWICE. I MEAN, WHY IS THAT A FAILING STREET? SURE SO THERE'S A COUPLE DIFFERENT, UM, WAYS TO LOOK AT IT. THERE'S CERTAINLY RIGHT ABILITY, WHICH IS THE RESIDENCE EXPERIENCE AS THEY DRIVE DOWN THE STREET. AND SO IN THIS CASE, THEY DRIVE DOWN THIS STREET THAT'S SHOWN AND THAT THE RIGHT RIGHT ABILITY MAY BE FINE. WHAT SOME OF THE DISTRESSED MECHANISMS THAT YOU'RE SEEING IN THIS ROADWAY IS THAT THE BASE MAY BE FAILING, AND SO IT'S GOING TO LEAD TO MORE MAINTENANCE COSTS, AND YOU'RE GOING TO SEE MORE CRACKING AND POTHOLES DEVELOPED FROM THAT. AND SO WHAT? WE LOOK AT THE SURFACE OF THAT RAILWAY AND CAN ASSIGN A SCORE, WHICH INDICATES TO ASK WHAT THE REPAIR METHOD MIGHT BE. SO THERE MAY BE OTHER THINGS GOING ON WITH THIS RAILWAY THAT WE'RE NOT SEEING IN THE PICTURE, BUT JUST LOOKING AT THE CRACKING THERE. FOR A CONCRETE STREET. THAT'S EXCESSIVE. AND SO YOU CAN EXPECT THAT YOU'RE GOING TO START TO SEE THOSE POTHOLES AND OTHER PANEL REPLACEMENTS REQUIRED AS YOU'RE ALSO GOING TO HAVE DIFFERENTIAL SETTLEMENT IN THE SLAB AS WELL. IT'S GOING TO REQUIRE REPLACEMENT TOO. WHEN YOU SAY IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. WHAT KIND OF TIME FRAME. I SO YOU'RE EVALUATING ALL THESE STREETS AND JUST SAY STUFF LIKE THAT, AND TO ME THAT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE A PRIORITY STREET, ALTHOUGH IT HAS VERY LOW. I MEAN, I DON'T KNOW. I'M JUST TRYING TO HAVE YOUR TEACH ME HERE, SO WE'RE GOING TO GET INTO THE SCIENCE OF A LITTLE BIT OF HOW MORE CALCULATING THOSE. AND HOW WE USE THOSE TO HELP DEFINE, UM. YOU KNOW, THE OVERALL NETWORK INDIVIDUALLY WHEN WE GO AND LOOK AT INDIVIDUAL STREETS AND WHAT,

[01:20:01]

HOW WE'RE GOING TO REPAIR THEM AT THAT TIME, THEN WE'LL LOOK TO SEE WHAT THE BEST TREATMENT METHOD IS IT. ON THIS PARTICULAR STREET HERE, THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT MAY LOOK AT AND SAY, WELL, THE BEST OPTION HERE IS REPLACEMENT. OR THEY MIGHT SAY THE BEST OPTION MIGHT BE AN OVERLAY, AND THOSE DECISIONS ARE MADE LATER. ONCE THE ACTUAL DETAILED ENGINEERING HAS DONE FOR EACH STREET AT THIS MOMENT, WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO IS TO LOOK AT AN OVERALL CONDITION ASSESSMENT FROM FOR ALL THE STREETS, SO THAT WAY WE CAN PROVIDE. PREDICTABILITY OR INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT IS IT THAT? YOU KNOW? WHAT IS IT? THE COST SHOULD BE FOR REPAIRING ROADWAYS RELATIVE TO THE POLICY DIRECTION FOR WHAT THE PC SCORE SHOULD BE FOR THE OVERALL CITY.

AND SO THIS PROVIDES GENERAL DIRECTION FOR THAT, AND WE'LL SHOW IN A LITTLE BIT IS HOW THIS INFORMATION IS COLLECTED. I THINK IT MIGHT MAKE A LITTLE MORE SENSE. WHEN YOU SEE WE'RE ACTUALLY USING, UM. VAN OR THE CONSULTANT HAS A VAN THAT HAS ACTUALLY LASERS AND RADAR AND CAMERAS THAT AUTOMATICALLY EVALUATE THE CONDITIONS OF THESE STREETS TO PROVIDE THAT.

OVERALL ASSESSMENT FOR EACH STREET CONDITION. OKAY, THANK YOU. SO. WHAT I CALL THIS IS A DETERIORATION, CURVE OR DEGRADATION CURVE FOR A STREET. AND YOU SEE, UM, FOR THE BEGINNING LIFE OF THE STREET. IT'S CONDITION REMAINS FAIRLY FLAT. THERE'S A PARTICULAR POINT IN THE STREET WHEN, UM, THE CONDITION OF THE ROADWAY STARTS INTERIOR VERY QUICKLY.

YOU'LL SEE THAT IN THE FAIR CONDITION NOW WHAT'S IMPORTANT ON THIS GRAPH IS THAT IF YOU ADD A DOLLAR OF REHABILITATION RIGHT AT THE POINT OF THE CURVE, YOU CAN EXTEND THAT CURVE OUT. SO YOU CAN BE VERY YOU CAN BE MORE COST EFFECTIVE WITH THE MAINTENANCE MONEY.

YOU'RE SPENDING IF YOU CAN HIT THE STREET AND DO THE MAINTENANCE, SUCH AS CRACK, SEALING OR MICRO SURFACING AT THE RIGHT TIME ON THE STREET. IF YOU WAIT FOR THE STREET TO BECOME POOR OR SERIOUS, YOU'RE PAYING ABOUT 4 TO 5 TIMES AS MUCH FOR RESURFACING OUR RECONSTRUCTION LATER ON, SO YOU'LL SEE THAT POINT ON THE RIGHT RIGHT TREATMENT AT THE RIGHT TIME FOR THE RIGHT PAVEMENT. SO AGAIN, UH, THE CITY HIRED FOOD, BRO.

CONSULTANTS THEIR THEIR SCOPE OF WORK INCLUDED COLLECTING THE DATA ANALYZING THE DATA AND THEN PROVIDING REHABILITATION STRATEGIES. AND THEN ONE THING THAT WE'RE GOING TO COME BACK TO FOOD GROW WITH BASED ON THE FEEDBACK THAT WE RECEIVE HERE IS TO BE ABLE TO DO THOSE FUNDING SCENARIOS, WHICH WE'LL TALK ABOUT A LITTLE BIT. THIS IS THE ACTUAL EQUIPMENT THAT FUGRO USERS AND THEY'VE DRIVEN ALL OF THE STREETS THAT ARE INCLUDED WITHIN THE ANALYSIS AND THIS PIECE OF EQUIPMENT COLLECTS ALL THE DATA. AND THEN WHAT HAPPENS IS THAT DATA IS THEN DOWNLOADED TO A COMPUTER MODEL THAT ANALYZES THE INFORMATION THAT IS COLLECTED AND PROVIDES THAT PC SCORE FOR THE CITY. I BELIEVE THEY ALSO GO OUT AND VERIFY THOSE SCORES AS WELL. IN TERMS OF DOING SPOT CHECKS, UM, ALSO. SO IN TERMS OF THE RAILWAY NETWORK. WE GO IN TERMS OF THE RAILWAY NETWORK IN THE CITY YOU'LL SEE ON THE PIE CHART ON THE RIGHT. 88% OF THE STREETS AND MCKENNEY OR CONCRETE. APPROXIMATELY 12% ARE ASPHALT. IN TERMS OF THE FUNCTIONAL CLASSIFICATION OF THE ROADWAY. 61% OF THE STREETS ARE RESIDENTIAL. SO THIS IS WHERE YOUR DRIVEWAYS COME OUT ONTO THESE TYPES OF STREETS. APPROXIMATELY 35% OF THE ROADWAYS ARE MATERIAL AND COLLECTORS. THESE WOULD BE ROADWAYS LIKE ELDORADO IN VIRGINIA. SO. THE OVERALL PC SCORE FOR THE CITY. MCKENNY IS A 71. THE OVERALL NETWORK SCORE IN 2012 WAS IN 87. AND THEN IN 2015, IT WAS 82. SO WHAT THIS IS SAYING IS THAT THE RATE OF DECLINE IN THE PC I EXCEEDS THE RATE OF REINVESTMENT BASED ON THE PAST YEARS OF PC COLLECTED DATA. IT'S ALSO IMPORTANT TO NOTE WHEN WE LOOK AT THE MATERIAL TYPE. YOU'LL SEE THAT THE CONCRETE STREETS ARE MUCH BETTER CONDITION THAN THE ASPHALT STREETS. SO YOU SEE AN AVERAGE SCORE OF A 76 FOR THE CONCRETE. AND YOU'LL SEE IN AVERAGE SCORE FOR THE ASPHALT OF 35 AGAIN. THIS ISN'T MEANT TO BE A COMPARISON BETWEEN THE MATERIALS, BUT IT'S RATHER CORRELATED MORE CLOSELY TO THE AGE OF THE STREETS, WHICH YOU'LL SEE IN A LITTLE BIT ON THE MAP. ALSO INTERESTING IS WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE FUNCTIONAL CLASSIFICATION OF THE ROADWAY, SO ROADWAYS THAT HAVE HIGHER VOLUMES OF TRAFFIC. ARE GENERALLY IN BETTER CONDITION THAN THE LOWER VOLUME ROADWAYS AND YOU'LL SEE THAT AND IN THE SECOND TABLE. SO THIS IS THIS IS THE MAP THAT PROVIDES THAT COLOR CODING SYSTEM FOR EVERY STREET SEGMENT THAT WAS ANALYZED. SO WHEN YOU PULL YOUR EYE BACK FROM THIS MAP, AND YOU LOOK AT THE OVERALL. CONDITION OR SCORES WITHIN THE CITY WILL SEE THAT THE DARKER COLORS REPRESENT LOWER PC SCORES. SO GENERALLY, UM, THE LOWER PC SCORES ARE CENTERED AROUND THE OLDER SECTIONS OF MAKENI. I THINK IT'S ALSO IMPORTANT TO POINT OUT THAT THERE'S OTHER NEIGHBORHOODS WHERE. PROBABLY

[01:25:05]

IN THESE AREAS WHERE THE ROADWAYS ARE. THE CONCRETE ROADWAYS ARE ROUGHLY 30 TO 40 YEARS OLD AND YOU CAN PROBABLY EXPECT AND THAT DEGRADATION CURVE THAT WE WERE TALKING ABOUT EARLIER. THOSE ROADS ARE ALSO GOING TO START REQUIRING MORE MAINTENANCE, RESURFACING AND REHABILITATION AS WELL. THIS IS ANOTHER WAY OF DISPLAYING THE DATA. SO I THINK THAT THIS IS A THIS IS A GOOD POINT HERE, WHICH IS THAT 80% OF APPROXIMATELY 80% OF THE NETWORK IS IN GOOD SATISFACTORY IN FAIR CONDITION. HOWEVER THOUGH, WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE TWO COLUMNS TO THE RIGHT, WE'VE COMPARED AGAIN. THE ASPHALT AND CONCRETE STREETS. YOU'RE GOING TO SEE THE ASPHALT STREETS. MANY MORE OF THOSE SEGMENTS ARE IN THE PORT OF VERY POOR CATEGORY. CONVERSELY ON THE CONCRETE STREETS, YOU'RE SEEING THAT THERE'S MANY MORE STREETS AND THE, UM GOOD TO SATISFACTORY CATEGORY. SO WHAT WE DO IS WE TAKE ALL THIS DATA AND THEN WE RUN BUDGET ANALYSIS BASED ON THAT INFORMATION, SO ONE OF THE BOOK ENDS THAT WE LOOK AT IS WHAT IF THE CITY OF MAKENI INVESTED. $0 IN ITS ROADWAY. WHAT IS HE EXPECTED? PC SCORING 10 YEARS AND THAT'S REPRESENTED BY THE RED LINE, SO YOU'LL SEE. THAT GOES FROM ROUGHLY AS 71 DOWN TO 50 SO AT 31% DROP. THEN THE OTHER SCENARIO THAT WE ANALYZED IS THE CURRENT BUDGET SCENARIO SO CONTINUING INVESTING $2.8 MILLION IN MAINTENANCE AND $6.5 MILLION IN CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS, AND THAT IS THE BLUE LINE THAT YOU SEE THERE. AND THAT'S AN APPROXIMATE 20% DROP IN THE PC INDEX. THIS IS ANOTHER WAY OF LOOKING AT THAT SCENARIO, NUMBER ONE, WHICH IS THE CURRENT BUDGET SCENARIO. SO ON THE FAR LEFT SIDE, YOU'RE SEEING THE QUANTITY OF EACH STREETS IN THOSE DIFFERENT CATEGORIES IN 2021. AND HOW THAT CHANGES OVER TIME TO THE YEAR 2030 SO YOU CAN SEE THAT, UM, THE LEVELS WITH THE LOWER SCORES INCREASE OVER TIME AND THE HIGHER PC SCORE CATEGORIES DECREASE. BEING A NEW, UH.

EMPLOYEE FOR MCKINNEY. THIS SLIDE WAS ONE OF THE MOST INTERESTING FOR ME. YOU CAN SEE THAT APPROXIMATELY 550 LANE MILES HAVE BEEN OF ROADWAY HAVE BEEN ADDED TO MCKINNEY IN THE LAST SIX YEARS. THAT'S SIGNIFICANT. ALSO IMPORTANT TO NOTE IS THAT THE MAINTENANCE BUDGET FOR THE CITY OF MCKINNEY HAS REMAINED RELATIVELY FLAT. SO ONE THING TO CONSIDER AS WELL AS THESE STREETS, AGE, ADDITIONAL MONEY FOR MAINTENANCE WILL NEED TO BE IDENTIFIED FOR THOSE ADDITIONAL STREET SEGMENTS THAT ARE BEING ADDED. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS SO.

IN ADDITION TO THE WRONG TURN IT BACK TO THE OTHER. SO PUT THAT IN PERSPECTIVE FOR US AS FAR AS MAINTENANCE BUDGET. WHAT DOES THAT? WHAT DOES THAT GET US? IS THAT IS THAT HOW MANY? HOW MANY BLOCKS? HOW MANY MILES. HOW MANY? SURE SO. BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY WE'RE ADDING STREETS.

BUT THE NEW STUFF DOESN'T NEED ANYTHING. HOPEFULLY FOR THE NEXT 25 30 YEARS, UM. BUT WHAT DOES THE WHAT IS $2.6 MILLION IN THE MAINTENANCE BUDGET. GET US RIGHT NOW. SO THE 2.6 MILLION IS GENERALLY PUBLIC WORKS FUNDS THAT IS USED FOR MAINTENANCE. THIS WOULD INCLUDE MATERIALS FOR POTHOLE PATCHING INCLUDES, UM PAGEANT OF CONCRETE AND INCLUDES BOTH. THE COST OF THE PUBLIC WORKS EMPLOYEES TO MAKE THOSE REPAIRS AS WELL AS SOME CONTRACTED SERVICES AS WELL. WE HAVE THAT DATA. I JUST DON'T HAVE IT WITH ME IN TERMS OF NUMBER THAT DOESN'T INCLUDE REPLACING A STREET. THESE ARE ALL JUST MAINTAINING A STREET. CORRECT.

THESE ARE THE MAINTENANCE BUDGET IS WHAT YOU'RE SAYING. THERE IS ONLY THAT. THOSE ARE THE FUNDS THAT PUBLIC WORKS USES TO DO. CRACK SEALING POTHOLE, PATCHING AND MAINTENANCE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS AS A SEPARATE BUDGET. SO HAS THE HAS YOUR DEPARTMENT EVER COME TO THE CITY COUNCIL OR COME IN SOME OTHER TO THE CITY MANAGER AND SAID, HEY, WE NEED MORE MONEY HAS THAT EVER HAPPENED? I CAN'T SPEAK TO THAT INFORMATION HERE.

BUT I'M. COMMUNICATING NOW IS THAT AS WE'RE ADDING MORE STREETS, THAT'S PROBABLY GOING TO BE A CONVERSATION THAT WILL NEED TO HAVE IN THE FUTURE. AS THESE STREETS CONTINUE TO AGE, THAT ADDITIONAL MAINTENANCE DOLLARS WILL BE NEEDED TO KEEP PACE WITH AND I DON'T THINK ANYBODY UP HERE WOULD HAVE A PROBLEM WITH INCREASING BUDGET, BUT WE'RE JUST NOT AWARE OF ANYTHING THAT NEEDS TO BE INCREASED. AND SO THAT'S I MEAN, YEAH, I WOULD NOT WANT ANY EMPLOYEE THAT THEY WERE DOING WITHOUT BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE ANY MONEY WHILE YOU'RE DOING THAT BECAUSE YOU DON'T HAVE ANY MONEY BECAUSE YOU HAVEN'T ASKED US FOR IT OR ARE BUDGETED FOR IT. AND SO I JUST I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT'S THE THAT'S THE CASE THAT YOU'RE NOT SAYING. HEY, WE NEED MORE MONEY. AND WE DON'T HAVE IT. AND BECAUSE YOU KNOW, SO

[01:30:05]

NOTED, AND THIS IS JUST REALLY. IT WAS MORE OF A. LOOKING FORWARD INTO THE FUTURE THAT AS AS WE'RE ADDING, MORE STREETS IN THE STREETS ARE GETTING OLDER AND THIS IS GOING TO BE A CONSIDERATIONCE BUDGET HASN'T GONE UP? WELL BEING BEING NEW TO THE CITY. I CAN'T SPEAK TO WHO PROPOSED IT BEFORE, BUT THE ANSWER IS NOT YOURS. IT'S YEAH, IT'S PUBLIC WORKS HIS RESPONSIBILITY TO COMMUNICATE TO THE COUNCIL. WHAT. BECAUSE I LOOK AT THAT, AND I JUST SAY THEY HAVEN'T ASKED FOR IT, SO THEREFORE, THAT'S SUFFICIENT. BUT IF IT'S NOT WE CERTAINLY WE CERTAINLY WISH THAT WE WOULD CERTAINLY NEED TO KNOW. JUST COME AND I SURE WISH IT WORKED THAT WAY. I SURE WISH IT WAS THAT EASY. WE SURE LIKE TO HAVE AN EFFECTIVE PLUS ZERO TAX RATE, THOUGH, DON'T WE? SO THAT'S GOING TO BE THE DISCUSSION IN THE BUDGET CYCLE THIS YEAR AND IN FUTURE YEARS IS WE'VE GOT TO COME UP WITH A SOLUTION. AND WHILE WE ALL WANT TO KEEP OUR TAX RATES LOW, WE GOT TO PAY FOR ROADS AND THAT COMES OUT OF CASH.

ABSOLUTELY AND THESE ARE TOUGH DECISIONS. THEY'RE NOT EASY. I THINK OUR PUBLIC WORKS. FOLKS HAVE DONE AN AWFUL LOT WITH WHAT THEY HAVE. THEY COME TO ME AND THEY SAY, HERE'S WHAT WE NEED. WE'VE GOT CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS. THEY'LL REBUILD THE ROADS WHERE THEY CAN RECONSTRUCT AS IT MAKES NO SENSE TO SPEND MONEY ON RESURFACING THE ROAD THAT'S ALREADY FAILING. YOU GOT TO REBUILD IT. AND THAT'S EXPENSIVE, BUT WE HAVE TO HAVE AND WE WILL TALK ABOUT THIS IN THE BUDGET. ITSELF BUT WE'VE GOT TO HAVE A LONG TERM SOLUTION FOR ROAD MAINTENANCE. THIS THIS IS GOING TO CATCH UP TO US REAL FAST. WE'VE BEEN LUCKY BECAUSE WE'VE BEEN LIVING OFF OF NEW SUBDIVISIONS DEVELOPMENT, SO IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE THE ROADS ARE IN BAD SHAPE. BUT IF YOU DRIVE AROUND SOME OLDER PARTS OF TOWN, YOU KNOW THAT SOME OF THE ROADS ARE IN PRETTY ROUGH SHAPE. AND WE'VE MADE A CONCERTED EFFORT ADDRESSING SOME OF THOSE ON THE EAST SIDE, BUT WE GOT A LONG WAY TO GO SO. I THINK YOU DIDN'T DIDN'T WE HAVE QUICKLY TO HOW? HOW LONG AFTER A NEW ROAD IS BUILT, BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY THE ONES THAT ARE THERE NOW BEING ADDED TO THIS LIST OF ONES THAT WE HAVE TO MAINTAIN SO ASPHALT VERSUS CONCRETE. TIMING WISE. WHEN DO YOU FEEL? HOW MUCH TIME SHOULD WE EXPECT BEFORE? WE DO NEED REPAIRS? INSURANCE? SO IT DEPENDS ON THE DESIGN OF THE ASPHALT OR CONCRETE STREET. UM ONE OF THE GENERAL, UM, COMMENTS THAT YOU NORMALLY HEAR IS CONCRETE IS HAS A LONGER DESIGN LIFE. UM. YET COST MORE UPFRONT. I MEAN, THAT'S KIND OF BEEN THE GENERAL THING, BUT IT ALSO DEPENDS ON HOW THICK BUILDING THE CONCRETE AS WELL AS THE ASPHALT SO YOU CAN BUILD EQUIVALENT ASPHALT CROSS SECTIONS TO HAVE THE SAME DESIGN LIFE. AS AN EQUIVALENT CONCRETE STREET. IT'S A MATTER IN THE ENGINEERING AND HOW YOU DO IT, UM, GENERAL RULES OF THUMB FOR ME, YOU KNOW, AN ASPHALT STREET WILL LAST 20 TO 30 YEARS. UM YOU MAY REQUIRE MAINTENANCE, SUCH AS A REEF SURFACING SOMEWHERE IN THE INTERIM THERE. FOR CONCRETE STREET. THEY CAN LAST AS YOU'VE SEEN 40. PLUS YEARS. UM AND IT ALSO DEPENDS ON HOW WELL YOU'RE MAINTAINING THEM. ARE YOU DOING THE CRACK SEALING? ARE YOU DOING THE PANEL REPLACEMENTS? BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T DO THE MAINTENANCE YOU SAW IN THE DEGRADATION CURVE THAT I CAN GO DOWN SO. GENERALLY ON A CONCRETE STREET, DEPENDING ON HOW WELL IT'S MAINTAINED. I'D PUT IN THE 30 TO 50 YEARS CATEGORY IN TERMS OF LENGTH.

DOES THE TRAFFIC LIKE LARGE TRUCKS AND STUFF LIKE THAT ALSO COMES INTO CONSIDERATION AND HOW LONG THE ROAD RIGHT SO TO BRING UP THAT POINT, UM, YOU KNOW, HEAVIER GARBAGE TRUCKS, HEAVIER TRUCKS USING THE ROADWAY. THE ROADWAYS ARE DESIGNED FOR A SPECIFIC, UH, WAIT IN TERMS OF WHAT? YOU KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON THE ROADWAYS SO ROADWAYS THAT THAT YOU WHERE YOU HAVE HIGHER EXPECTED WEIGHTS. SUCH AS AN INTERSTATE OR SAY AN ARTERIAL ROADWAY HAVE THICKER CROSS SECTIONS. YOUR RESIDENTIAL ROADWAYS HAVE, YOU KNOW SMALLER CROSS SECTIONS BECAUSE THE LOADING ON THOSE ROADS. ARE NOT EXPECTED TO BE THE SAME, HOWEVER, THOUGH. YOU KNOW IF THE ROADWAY WAS DESIGNED 30 YEARS AGO FOR AN EXPECTED GARBAGE TRUCK THAT'S TWICE AS HEAVY NOW. WELL, THAT HAS AN IMPACT TO YOUR POINT IN TERMS OF ITS IMPACT ON HOW THAT ROAD DETERIORATES. THANK YOU. WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT ROAD MAINTENANCE BUDGETS. LIKE. ON YOUR SCALE OF WHERE ROAD IS SERIOUS, FAILED. AT WHAT POINT IS MAINTENANCE, NOT AN OPTION, AND IT IS REPLACEMENT. SO GENERALLY WHEN YOU WERE LOOKING AT THOSE PICTURES THAT DEPENDS ON EACH INDIVIDUAL, ROAD BASED SEGMENT, BUT I THINK WE WERE IN THE, UM YOU KNOW, ROUGHLY.

LET'S JUST SAY THAT. 50 IS ABOUT WHERE YOU'RE LOOKING AT MAINTENANCE ABOVE THAT BELOW THAT NOW YOU'RE LOOKING AT MORE EXPENSIVE TREATMENTS, AND AS YOU GO DOWN AND THE P C CONTINUES TO GO DOWN THE MAINTENANCE TREATMENT CONTINUES TO GET MORE EXPENSIVE. SO TAKE AN ASPHALT ROADWAY. FOR EXAMPLE, THE. LOWEST COST MAINTENANCE ITEM MIGHT BE CRACK SEALING THE NEXT THING THAT YOU MIGHT BE DOING MIGHT BE MICRO SURFACING, WHICH IS SPRAYING AN EMULSION IS MIXED WITH AGGREGATE OVER IT. CONTINUING DOWN THE NEXT OPTION AS THE PC

[01:35:04]

GETS LOWER AS YOU MIGHT HAVE TO GRIND AND RESURFACE, WHICH IS FAIRLY MORE EXPENSIVE, AND THEN THE LAST OPTION IS COMPLETELY RIPPING IT OUT, RIPPING THE BASE OUT. AND REPLACING IT, AND SO YOU'RE LOOKING AT, I WOULD SAY. LET'S CALL IT 40 OR 50. WHEN YOU'RE STARTING TO GET INTO THOSE MORE EXPENSIVE OPTIONS, WHICH ARE RESURFACING IN RECONSTRUCTION. SO GOING BACK TO THE MAP. YOU SHOWED. AND YOU MENTIONED THE BRIGHTER COLORS, BUT THE WORST ONE IS A KIND OF A DULL COLOR THAT GETS LOST OVER THERE. AND THE FAILED WOULD YOU CONSIDER. A FAILED AND SERIOUS AS A, UH, AN OPTION FOR MAINTENANCE. OR WOULD YOU CONSIDERED AN OPTION FOR.

RECONSTRUCTION USUALLY, THESE ROADWAYS IN THOSE CATEGORIES ARE GOING TO HAVE MORE EXPENSIVE. REPLACEMENT OPTIONS THAT ARE GOING TO BE REQUIRED. SO THE WAY WE DO THE COMPUTER MODELING HERE IS WE MAKE ASSUMPTIONS IN THE COMPUTER NETWORK AND THE COMPUTER MODEL TO SAY THAT THE VERY POOR SERIES AND FAILED. HAVE THOSE MORE EXPENSIVE MAINTENANCE OPTIONS THAT WE CAN THEN DO THE BUDGET ANALYSIS TO SAY IF THE CITY COUNCIL HAS A TARGET PC? WHAT IS THE EXPECTED COST FOR THAT? AND WHAT SHOULD THE CITY COUNCIL BE SPENDING PER YEAR TO MEET THAT TARGET? AND SO THAT'S HOW WE DO THAT. ANALYSIS AND DO YOU THINK THAT TARGET PC IS ON THE OVERALL SYSTEM, OR IS IT ON AN INDIVIDUAL ROADWAY LIKE ARE WE TARGETING THAT EVERY ROADWAY HIT AT LEAST 25 OR SOMETHING, OR WE TARGETING THAT EVERY THE OVERALL SYSTEM IS THAT. 79% WHICH IS WHERE WE'RE AT TODAY. WHAT SHOULD THOSE TARGETS LOOK LIKE? YEAH AND IT CAN BE IT CAN BE, UM, BOTH. IT CAN BE ONE OR THE OTHER OR SOMETHING ELSE. SO SOME COMMUNITIES STRIVE TO HIT A TARGET PC. THEY MIGHT SAY WE WANT OUR AVERAGE SCORE TO BE IN THE FAIR CATEGORY, SO WE'RE GOING TO PICK A 65. AND SO THEN THAT'S WHEN WE COME BACK, AND WE CAN. DO THE ANALYSIS TO SAY OKAY, IF THAT IS THE CITY COUNCIL'S GOAL HERE IS THE APPROXIMATE AMOUNT THAT YOU WOULD NEED TO SPEND PER YEAR TO MEET THAT GOAL. A CITY MAY ALSO HAVE A POLICY WHERE THEY SAY WE DO NOT WANT ANY STREETS BELOW A PARTICULAR TARGET. AND THEN AS STAFF, WE CAN COME BACK TO THE CITY COUNCIL AND SAY IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO HAVE ANY STREETS BELOW A PARTICULAR TARGET, HERE'S THE COST OF THAT POLICY. AND SO WHAT WE'RE DOING TODAY IS PRESENTING THE DATA AND SETTING UP THE MODEL AND THEN GETTING FEEDBACK ON WHAT THAT POLICY SHOULD BE SO THAT WE CAN COMMUNICATE BACK. WHAT THAT COST WILL BE FOR THAT PARTICULAR POLICY AND THEN WASTE OPTIONS TO FUND IT RIGHT. BECAUSE I SEE A 79% OVERALL SCORES A PRETTY GOOD SCORE. IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S SOMETHING THAT WITHIN A LOOK AT MY DISTRICT AND A IT'S KIND OF HARD TO LOOK AT. CAN CAN WE GET THAT MAP AND SOME. MANIPULABLE WAY LIKE THAT. WE CAN LOOK AT IT IN MORE DETAIL OR. ABSOLUTELY THE PRONOUNCER. MESSING WITH MY EYES, BUT SO WE HAVE OUR GIS CAPABILITIES TO BE ABLE TO PROVIDE THAT INFORMATION SO YOU CAN ZOOM IN AND ZOOM OUT AND CLICK ON INDIVIDUAL SEGMENTS. WHEN YOU SEE SEE SCORES FOR EACH ROADWAY, SO WHEN IT SCORES A ROADWAY, HOW DOES IT IT? SAYING IT IS GOING INTO THE ROADWAY, DETERMINING. WHAT WHAT KIND OF BASE IT HAS. AND IF THAT BASIS DETERIORATING OR JUST SURFACE LEVEL 100. IT IS SURFACE LEVEL. I WANT TO LOOK AT TO ME TO CONFIRM. DO THEY HAVE GROUND PENNY TRADER? NO OKAY. JUST SURFACE LEVEL SO BASED ON THE DISTRESS MECHANISMS THAT YOU'RE SEEING AT THE SURFACE, UM. THE ALGORITHMS CALCULATE WHAT THE EXPECTED PC IS, AND AGAIN. THIS IS A MACROSCOPIC VIEW, YOU KNOW OF THE OVERALL NETWORK AND NOT NECESSARILY INTENDED TO SAY THIS IS THE TREATMENT FOR THIS PARTICULAR ROAD. THE AT ONE POINT, I THINK SOMEONE HAD MENTIONED TO ME. THAT, UH. AND THE TECHNOLOGY THAT MAPS THIS WAS ALSO SUPPOSED TO BE ABLE TO LOOK AT, YOU KNOW, IDENTIFY DOESN'T HAVE KURBAN GUTTERS DOESN'T HAVE A SIDEWALK ON THE ROAD THAT DOESN'T HAVE THAT DATA. YES THAT DATA WAS COLLECTED AS PART OF THIS, UM, REPORT IN TERMS OF THE CURB. IT ALSO LOOKS AT THE CONDITION. WE ALSO COLLECTED SIDEWALK DATA.

AS PART OF THIS AS WELL TO SEE WHERE GAPS INSIDE WALK MIGHT BE AS WELL AS A CONDITION, UM OF ACCESS RAMPS AT EACH INTERSECTION. THAT'S THAT'S SOMETHING THAT CAN LOAD INTO G I G S GIS. YES, OKAY. WE'LL MAKE THAT AVAILABLE. THANK YOU AND I WAS GOING TO BRING IT UP AS WELL BECAUSE THE WAY THIS MAP BREEDS AND THE WEIGHT SOME OF OUR RESIDENTS OF. TRIED TO LOOK AT IT, ESPECIALLY IN DISTRICT ONE OR EAST OF 75. BECAUSE WE GET THAT'S WHERE WE GET THE MOST OF THE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE ROADWAY. AND NO MATTER WHAT, WHEN WE GO OVER

[01:40:05]

THERE, IT'S MEETING THE POOR OR VERY POOR STANDARDS OF THE PATCHWORK. I THINK SOMETHING THE WEEKEND SHOW. LOOK, THIS IS WHERE WE NEED TO DO OUR DILIGENCE. ON THESE ROADS AND MAKE A PRIORITY LIST FOR THESE ROADS TO START GETTING RECONDITIONED OR HOWEVER YOU GUYS DO IT NOT PATCHWORK, BUT TO REDO THE WHOLE ROAD. SO THE TECHNOLOGY DEFINITELY EXIST, AND WE CAN PROVIDE THAT TO COMMUNICATE THAT DATA, UH TO WHOMEVER WE NEED TO, SO THAT EXISTS THAT WAY. AS STAFF. WE ALSO USE THIS DATA AND WE'VE BEEN USING THE 2015 REPORT TO HELP US DO OUR JOBS, SO WE USE THAT INFORMATION TO, YOU KNOW, TO PROVIDE LIST TO PROVIDE AN ORGINAL RANKING, AND I KNOW ENGINEERING USES THAT AS WELL TO SAY. HERE'S THE ORDER. WE'RE GOING TO DO WORST FIRST IN TERMS OF THE RAILWAYS THAT ARE OUT THERE, AND WE'RE GOING TO LOOK AT THESE PARTICULAR ROADWAYS. AND SO WE DO. LOOK AT THAT, AS WELL AS TRY TO MARRY THOSE ROADWAYS THAT NEED TO BE REPLACED WITH OTHER CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS AS WELL. YEAH, I AGREE WITH MAYOR PRO TEM WHEN IT. SITTING AT 2015 NUMBERS ARE MAINTENANCE BUDGET. AND WHERE 50 PLUS 1000 PEOPLE MORE IN THE CITY. SO WE'VE GOT TO MAKE AN ADJUSTMENT THERE, AND IT'S GOING TO BE A TOUGH ONE. BUT IT'S GOT IT'S GOT TO BE MADE. WHO BECAUSE WE'RE NOT GOING TO GET ANY SMALLER. WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE THIS TRAFFIC THROUGH HERE. GOT IT. ALL RIGHT. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS. SO, UM. WHEN WE'RE LOOKING AT ROADWAY REPAIRS, THE CITY OWNS A LOT OF OTHER INFRASTRUCTURE UNDERNEATH THE RAILWAY AS WELL, AND IT'S APPROPRIATE TO LOOK AT THE CONDITION OF THOSE ASSETS AS WELL. WHILE YOU HAVE THE ROADWAY OPEN, AND SO ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE'RE ALSO DOING THIS WE HAVE RISK MODEL ASSESSMENTS THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT IN TERMS OF WATER MAINS AND SEWERS, SIDEWALKS AS WE WERE TALKING ABOUT EARLIER. SOME OF THE INFORMATION THAT WE LOOK AT THESE RISK MODEL ASSESSMENTS MIGHT BE NUMBER OF WATER MAIN BREAKS THE AGE OF THE WATER MAIN, THE MATERIAL TYPE AND THAT INFORMATION THAT HELPS US DETERMINE. WHICH WATER MAY NEED TO BE REPLACED AND WHAT WE DO IS WE MARRY THAT INFORMATION FOR THE UTILITIES WITH THE ROADWAYS THAT ARE GOING TO BE REPLACED SO THAT WE CAN HAVE A PROGRAM. WHERE WE'RE LOOKING AT ALL. WE'RE HOLISTICALLY LOOKING AT THE ENTIRE. BROADWAY CORRIDOR, AND WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO, THERE IS GAIN ECONOMIES OF SCALE IN TERMS OF BEING EFFICIENT, WITH THE DOLLARS THAT ARE PROVIDED. SO NEXT STEPS. UM, AS WE TALKED A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WE'RE HERE TO RECEIVE FEEDBACK ON ANY PC. I GOALS THAT THE CITY COUNCIL WOULD LIKE US TO LOOK AT AS WELL AS IF THERE ARE ANY FUNDING ALTERNATIVES. THAT WE SHOULD BE LOOKING AT. IN TERMS OF THE NEXT STEP. WE'RE GOING TO TAKE THAT INFORMATION BACK.

DO THE ANALYSIS AND THEN COME BACK TO THE CITY COUNCIL IN SEVERAL MONTHS WITH THOSE ANALYSIS IN TERMS OF WHAT THAT COST WOULD BE. WE'LL TAKE ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS. I DON'T HAVE A QUESTION. WHAT I WOULD ASK IS WHAT YOU WHAT YOU DID OR YOUR YOUR MAP WAS COUNT.

JUMBLED UP AND WE CAN'T READ IT. IT WOULD BE REALLY INTERESTING TO ALMOST PUT IT.

PUT IT IN DISTRICTS OR PUT WHERE WE COULD READ THE MAP AND PUT IT TO WHERE YOU CAN.

ACTUALLY I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY PAGES THAT IT WOULD BE, BUT WHERE YOU CAN SEE WHERE THE WERE. THE WORST ONES ARE AND STUFF LIKE THAT. I THINK ALL OF US WOULD BE INTERESTED IN. AND SEEING THAT VERSUS JUST SOME JUMBLED MAP THAT WE CAN'T READ, OKAY? WOULD BE HELPFUL. THANK YOU. QUESTIONS, COMMENTS JOB. THANK YOU VERY MUCH, SIR. THANK YOU. 1669 PRESENTATION ON THE

[Presentation on the Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) System]

ADVANCED METERING INFRASTRUCTURE AMI SYSTEM. GOOD AFTERNOON, MAYOR AND COUNCIL MARK HOLLOWAY, CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER. UM. WE ARE READY TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THE AMI WATER METERING SYSTEM THAT WE FIRST INTRODUCED LAST YEAR DURING OUR BUDGET WORKSHOP. THIS TECHNOLOGICAL STEP FORWARD FOR OUR WATER CUSTOMERS IS THE BRAINCHILD OF ALEX KCR, UTILITY CUSTOMER OPERATIONS MANAGER AND PATRICK HACKLER, HEAD OF OUR METER SERVICES DIVISION. I'M VERY PROUD OF THE HARD WORK THAT THEY HAVE PUT INTO THIS. UM. I AM NOT GIVING THE PRESENTATION. I JUST WANTED TO INTRODUCE THEM TO YOU TODAY AND I'M GOING TO GET OUT OF THE WAY. PATRICK BEFORE. THANK YOU, MARK. UM GOOD AFTERNOON, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. UH FIRST TIME UP HERE A LITTLE NERVOUS, YOU KNOW, BUT WE'LL GET THROUGH IT. ALL RIGHT? UM I GUESS MY NAME IS PATRICK HACKLER. I'M THE ASSISTANT MANAGER OF THE METER SERVICES DEPARTMENT HERE AT THE CITY. AS MARK MENTIONED. WE'RE HERE TO DISCUSS THE RECENT RFP FOR ADVANCED METERING INFRASTRUCTURE. OUR GOAL FOR THIS PROJECT IS TO FOSTER WATER CONSERVATION AND ENHANCE

[01:45:03]

CUSTOMER SERVICE AT ALL LEVELS. AFTER CONSIDERING ALL OF OUR OPTIONS, UH. THAT WE RECEIVED THROUGH THE RFP PROCESS. YEAH. UM, THAT RECEIVED. WE HAVE CHOSEN TO STAY WITH OUR CURRENT METER MANUFACTURER. WE'VE BEEN WITH THEM. HAVE BEEN HERE 19 YEARS WE'VE BEEN WITH THEM.

SINCE BEFORE THAT, SO IT'S THE SAME METER MANUFACTURER THE SAME. SAME. COMPANY THAT WE'VE BEEN WITH THIS ENTIRE TIME. UM. WITH THAT. PURCHASING THOSE METERS WOULD BE THROUGH HYDRO PRO SOLUTIONS THERE. THE VENDOR FOR THAT PRODUCT IN THIS AREA AND BY STAYING WITH OUR CURRENT MANUFACTURER WILL BE ABLE TO SAY ROUGHLY $4 MILLION THROUGH LOYALTY PRICING PROGRAM. SO GOING FORWARD TO ENSURE THAT WE'RE GETTING THE BEST PRODUCT FOR OUR NEEDS WERE. GOING TO DO A 600 M TEST. AND. ONCE WE FEEL COMFORTABLE THAT WE HAVE MADE THE CORRECT DECISION, WE INTEND TO DO A CITY WIDE IMPLEMENTATION, WHICH WE ESTIMATE WILL TAKE ROUGHLY TWO YEARS. ONE OF THE MAIN REASONS WE SELECTED TO STAY WITH THIS COMPANY IS THE PICTURE UP THERE ON THE RIGHT. IT'S JUST A REGISTER EXCHANGE. SO WE WOULDN'T HAVE TO CHANGE OUT THE METERS ARE METERS ARE FAIRLY NEW THROUGHOUT THE SYSTEM. UM SO WE WOULD JUST BE SIMPLY.

CHANGING OUT THE REGISTERS THE BENEFIT FOR THE CUSTOMER. THERE'S NO SERVICE INTERRUPTION. BENEFIT FOR US AND ALLOWS US TO HAVE A MORE AGGRESSIVE TIMELINE BECAUSE IT'S NOT AS MUCH WORK, UM SO THAT WE CAN GET THE JOB COMPLETED FASTER. THAT DATA COLLECTORS WILL BE MOUNTED ON OUR CITY OWNED WATER TOWERS. IN THIS COMPANY HAS OUT OF ALL THE VENDORS THAT WE LOOKED AT THE. THE LEAST AMOUNT OF INFRASTRUCTURE, SO THE LEAST AMOUNT OF THINGS THAT COULD GO WRONG FOR INFRASTRUCTURE FOR US. WHEN YOU SAY WE'RE REPLACING THEM RUNNING IS THAT REPLACING EVERY HOUSE HOLD. YES SIR. SYSTEM YES, SIR. SO WHEN YOU SAY THIS, BECAUSE RIGHT NOW YOU LOOK AT IT AND YOU SEE THE LITTLE WILL SPINNING AND STUFF LIKE HIS MIND DOES WILL SPINNING. IS THAT SO? YOU WOULD YOU WOULD BE SEEING THIS INSTEAD OF THAT? YES SIR. AND IT'S JUST A DIRECT REPLACEMENT. SO THAT REGISTER THAT YOU HAVE.

COMES OFF. THIS ONE GOES ON. IT'S A NEW DIGITAL REGISTER AND SENDS TO THE INFRASTRUCTURE THAT WOULD BE PLACING ON THE WATER TOWERS. OKAY AND IT RUNS PRETTY MUCH THE SAME SO YOU CAN SEE WHEN THE WATER IS RUNNING. YOU CAN SEE THE NUMBERS TALLY EXACTLY. THIS ONE WILL GIVE YOU GALLONS PER MINUTE. OKAY? SO INSTEAD OF. OUT THERE WITH A STOPWATCH WAITING WATCHING IT TO GO AROUND. AND IT'LL TELL YOU EXACTLY HOW MANY GALLONS PER MINUTE ARE GOING THROUGH IT ON THE DISPLAY SCREEN. HOW MUCH IS THIS GOING TO COST US TO REDO ALL THESE? IT'S ROUGHLY $12 MILLION. AND LIKE, MARK, SAID, THIS IS. SOMETHING THAT WAS IN THE AGENDA HAS THE FUNDING IS ALREADY THERE. UM, SO WE WERE JUST WAITING TO MAKE A SELECTION THROUGH COVID AND ALL OF THE. AARP AND EVERYTHING THAT WE'VE HAD GOING ON. IT'S TAKEN US A WHILE TO GET THROUGH THE PROCESS. SPECIAL PRICE. YES YES, ACTUALLY, IT IS. YES, IT WAS THE CHEAPEST BY FORWARD TO DO THIS. I MEAN, SOME OF THEM WERE. VERY MUCH WAS NECESSARY TO DO THIS. MEAN NECESSARY? NO, BUT IN LINE WITH THE COUNCIL GOALS OF ENHANCING CUSTOMER RELATIONS, SO RIGHT NOW, SOMEONE CALLS INTO THE WATER DEPARTMENT AND THEY SAY HEY, HAVE A HIGH BILL, RIGHT? OKAY WELL, THAT'S WHERE THE CONVERSATION ENDS RIGHT NOW. OKAY, BECAUSE WE HAVE TO SEE WHY. WE HAVE THE ABILITY TO DRIVE OUT THERE AND SPEND 30 MINUTES PULLING THE PROFILE DATA AND SEEING. YOU KNOW WHAT THE ISSUE IS, AND THEN TAKING THAT BACK, GIVING IT TO A CSR AND HAVING THEM COMMUNICATED TO THE CUSTOMER. THAT WHOLE PROCESS IS. SO THIS KIND. THIS KIND OF ELIMINATES THAT IT GOT THAT ON DEMAND. THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE NO DATA IN FRONT OF. IS THERE ANY WAY, FOR INSTANCE, I GOT A $1900 BILL AND. THAT WAS AFTER LIKE A $1700 BILL. NOBODY WAS AND THEN FINALLY, SOMEBODY BOTHERED TO COME OUT AND TELL US HEY. AND THEN THEY WERE ABLE TO SHOW ME A KIND OF A PROFILE AND WHAT THE CAUSE WAS BECAUSE I'M JUST LIKE WE DIDN'T USE 200,000 GALLONS. WE HEAR THAT A LOT. NOT 200,000 GALLONS. I DROPPED OUT. AND SO THAT'S A SMALL LAKE. UM, THOSE PEAS, DRINK A LOT OF WATER, PLEASE, TO DRINK A LOT OF WATER SO. SO

[01:50:07]

I WOULD STILL HAVE TO CALL AND GET THAT INFORMATION. THERE'S NOTHING THAT WE CAN. HOOK UP ONLINE. WE'RE GETTING TO THAT. IT'S COMING IN THE FUTURE, DO IT AT THE END OF THE PRESENTATION, UM YOU'LL ACTUALLY HAVE THE TOOLS TO BE ABLE TO MONITOR YOUR OWN USAGE SET UP USAGE ALERT. WILL ALERT YOU FOR A LEAK. BUT. STEALING THUNDER FOR FROM MY COLLEAGUE BECAUSE AND SIGN ME UP, BABY, WHAT DO WE SIGNED 12 MILLION BUCKS. ALL RIGHT, SO. WE HAVE A FCC LICENSE FREQUENCY. UH SO NO ONE CAN STEP ON OUR SIGNAL GETTING FROM THE REGISTERS TO, UM ARE COLLECTORS UM. AND THEN WE JUST IN CASE THERE'S A NETWORK OUTAGE. WE HAVE THE CAPABILITY FOR MOBILE READING. UM. ALL RIGHT. SO THIS IS WHAT OUR DASHBOARD WOULD LOOK LIKE IN THE OFFICE. SO YOU HAVE ALERTS AND STATUS MONITORING THOSE ALERT ALERTS WOULD BE LEAKS. UM REVERSE FLOW. UM LOW BATTERY, AND IT WOULD JUST ALLOW US TO BE MORE PROACTIVE FOR PEOPLE THAT DIDN'T SIGN UP. FOR THE THING THAT MR ROGERS ONCE, UM. WE WOULD BE ABLE TO ALERT THEM. AS THOSE ALERTS HAPPEN. IT'S REAL TIME WE WOULD BE ABLE TO LET THEM KNOW. HEY, YOU HAVE A LEAGUE LETS YOU KNOW. INSTEAD OF RIGHT NOW. IT'S EVERY MONTH. WE GO OUT THERE AND DRIVE BY SO THEY COULD HAVE HAD A LEAK FOR THE LAST 29 DAYS. AND YES, WE'RE LETTING THEM KNOW THAT YOU NOW HAVE A LEAK. BUT WE COULD HAVE. WITH THIS SYSTEM, LET THEM KNOW MUCH EARLIER WHEN THE EVENT STARTED. WE HAVE A CUSTOMER CONSUMPTION MONITORING, AND THAT'S WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT WITH THE CSR IS BEING ABLE TO PULL UP THAT DATA REAL TIME WHILE THEY'RE ON THE PHONE. AND WALK THROUGH HOURLY DATA WITH THE CUSTOMER. YOU KNOW? DOING THIS FOR SO LONG. YOU CAN SEE WHETHER IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S A LEAK OR IRRIGATION BECAUSE THERE ARE PATTERNS THERE. UM. SO WE WOULD BE ABLE TO RESOLVE A LOT OF THOSE CALLS IN REAL TIME. ARE. THERE ARE WORK ORDERS THAT CAN BE CREATED JUST FOR US TO MAINTAIN OUR METER SYSTEM IN THE SOFTWARE. OURSELVES. THE R F NETWORK MONITORING IS REALLY JUST THE HEALTH OF THE SYSTEM. IT TELLS YOU HOW MANY READINGS ARE COMING IN HOW MANY READINGS ARE NOT COMING IN. YOU CAN DRILL DOWN ON THAT AND SEE. OKAY, WE NEED TO GO HERE. IT HASN'T COME IN FOR FOUR DAYS. LET'S GO OUT THERE AND SEE IF A CAR IS PARKED ON IT OR SOMEONE SMASHED THE REGISTER. WHATEVER HAPPENED, IT JUST GIVES US. THE ABILITY TO SEE WHAT'S HAPPENING IN AGAIN IN REAL TIME AND GO OUT THERE AND BE PRO OUT. SO AS FAR AS CONSERVATION AND I MENTIONED CONSERVATION AT THE BEGINNING. WE CAN PULL UP A MAP OF THE CITY AND DARK BLUE MEANS THEY'RE USING A LOT OF WATER. SO WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE WHOLE CITY, YOU'LL SEE IT'S NOT THIS DRILL DOWN, WHICH YOU'LL SEE SECTIONS OF THE TOWN THAT USE MORE WATER. IT'LL BE DARK BLUE. THEN YOU CAN DRILL DOWN FURTHER. UM AND THEN ONCE YOU'RE HERE, THAT'S OVER A HOUSE SO YOU COULD SELECT THAT HOUSE AND YOU COULD SEE THERE. DAILY USAGE HERE AND FROM THAT YOU COULD DRILL DOWN EVEN FURTHER AND SEE THEIR HOURLY USAGE. UM AND. THAT'S ALL I HAVE. AND THEN I'M GOING TO ALLOW ALEX TO COME UP HERE AND EXPLAIN TO YOU OR PRESENT TO YOU. THE CUSTOMER SERVICE BORDER. THANKS. THANK YOU. SO GOOD AFTERNOON COUNCIL AND MAYOR ALEXANDRA CASEY. THE, UH YEAH. UTILITY CUSTOMER SERVICE MANAGER AND SO IN CONJUNCTION WITH PATRICK IN MY TEAM, WE WERE JUST LIKE YOU THINK. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SUPPORTING THIS PROJECT AS WE ADVANCE WATER CONSERVATION AND BRINGING ADVANCING OUR CUSTOMER SERVICE LEVELS AS PATRICK MENTIONED, UM. WE DO GET A LOT OF CALLS ABOUT WHY OUR BILLS ARE HIGH, AND IT LEAVES OUR BILLING CLERKS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT'S GOING ON WITH BETTER SERVICES.

ONE OF THE THINGS THIS COMPANY HYDRO PRO IS GOING TO OFFER IS MY WATER ADVISOR AND THERE'S AN ONLINE PORTAL. YOU CAN SEE NO EXAMPLE HERE OF WHAT THE CUSTOMERS CAN GO AROUND. AND SEE IF THEY CAN LOOK AT THEIR. IT WILL DO A NEIGHBORHOOD AS WELL. IT'S NOT THEIR EXACT NEIGHBORS, BUT THEY CAN KIND OF SEE WHAT THEIR SIDES HOUSE OR YARD MIGHT BE USING AS A COMPARATIVE. TO ENCOURAGE WATER CONSERVATION. THE OTHER THING TOO, IS YOU CAN SET YOUR LIMITS.

SO THE CUSTOMERS THAT MAY NOT WANT TO PAY A $1700 BILL. THEY CAN PUT THAT IN THERE AND THEY CAN GET AN ALERT AS THEY'RE REACHING. MAX AND THE BEAUTY ABOUT THIS IS NOT ONLY IS THEIR

[01:55:02]

WEB PORTAL, AND IT'S ALSO MOBILE. WE HAVE REPRESENTATIVES TONIGHT FROM HYDRO PRO. THAT'S GOING TO BE OUR. VENDOR CHOICE AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, QUESTIONS? YES SIR. WERE YOU THE ONE THAT HELPED ME? YES SIR. BUT I THOUGHT IT WAS. THANK YOU. UM SO IN YOUR CASE, WHETHER IT WAS, YOU KNOW, YOUR IRRIGATION COMPANY THAT HAD THOSE SPRINKLERS RUNNING FOR 12 HOURS A DAY, SIX HOURS A DAY, YOU COULD HAVE HAD THOSE ALERTS SAID. I ONLY WANT TO SPEND $200 A MONTH OR SPEND YOU KNOW WHAT THAT IS EQUIVALENT OF IN TERMS OF GALLONS. PUT THAT OUT THERE, HAVE IT ON YOUR LITTLE RIGHT. HAVE AN ALERT AND THEN SO FOR THE REST OF MY SO IS THIS IS THIS IS THEIR MONTHLY FEE AND INVOLVED WITH THIS? NO, SIR, AND THAT WAS THE BEAUTY OF WHY WE CHOSE THIS FENDER. SO IT WILL ALLOW US TO HAVE RIGHT NOW WE HAVE ABOUT 65,000 CUSTOMERS.

SO THAT ORIGINAL IF YOU'LL SEE IN YOUR NOTES, IT'S AN 11 LITTLE OVER $11 MILLION PROJECT.

AND SO THAT IS TO BUY ENOUGH REGISTERS. THE AMI REGISTERS FOR ALL THE METERS WE HAVE IN THE GROUND TODAY. PLUS A LITTLE BIT EXTRA, BECAUSE WE KNOW WITH THE GROWTH THAT WE'RE HAVING.

IT'S ABOUT 2000 EXTRA YEAR. AND SO THAT WILL PUT THAT ON, AND ALL OF THOSE CUSTOMERS CAN AT THE SAME PRICE. SUPER LOW PRICE GET THE PORTAL. ENROLLMENT OR AN APP. SO ARE YOU SAYING IT DOES COST OR IT DOESN'T COST SO I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN TELL THE PRICE. IT'S JUST IT'S VERY, VERY, VERY INEXPENSIVE. OKAY SO THERE'S A FEE INVOLVED WITH IT. NO IT'S JUST THE INTEGRATION FEE WITH OUR WITH THE SYSTEM OF SETTING UP THE WEBSITE. IT'S NOT A MONTHLY TIME. THERE IS NO MONTHLY FEE. THERE'S AN UNLIMITED NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS WHEN WE LOOKED AT OTHER SYSTEMS, THERE WAS A CUSTOMER FEE. SO WHAT WE'RE FINDING IS ABOUT 20% OF OUR CUSTOMERS. WELL ACTUALLY LOG ON, AND THAT'S JUST DATA THAT OTHER. VENDORS HAVE PROVIDED RIGHT. THAT'S KIND OF OUT THERE IN THE MARKETPLACE. OUR GOAL HAS TO HAVE AT LEAST 50% OF OUR CUSTOMERS USING THIS TECHNOLOGY. SO THAT SO THAT THEY'RE NOT CALLING YOU. THEY'RE LOOKING ON THEIR LITTLE APP AND SEEING WHAT'S HAPPENING EXACTLY. SO. I GUESS I KNOW. SO THE OTHER THE OTHER ONES ARE CHARGING FOR IT. I GUESS I DON'T KNOW. UNDERSTAND WHERE. THEY DON'T CHARGE FOR IT. IS IT BECAUSE WE'RE USING? WE'RE SPENDING $12 MILLION TO BUY THEIR LITTLE MACHINES AND THEN AND THEN BY THE THEY'RE GOOD GRACE. THEY'RE THEY'RE A LOT ALLOWING THIS. WHAT DO THEY GET OUT OF IT? SO PEOPLE DON'T DO THINGS FOR MEAN BECAUSE BECAUSE IT'S A LONG TERM DEAL. I MEAN, WE'RE TALKING LONG TERM DEAL. YES SIR. SIMPLY PUT, YOU PUT A ONE TIME FEE. I THINK IT WAS LESS THAN $10,000. AND AFTER THAT, THAT IS TOO INTEGRATED INTO YOUR SYSTEM FOR 10,000 PAID BY THE CITY, NOT PER HOUSE, CORRECT PART OF THIS PROJECT, AND THEN IT'S JUST INFORMATION THAT OUR SYSTEM AUTOMATICALLY HAS. AND SO WE'VE DEVELOPED OUR MASTER METER DEVELOPED THE SOFTWARE AND IT'S JUST GENERALLY GIVEN AN OUT SO THERE IS NO USER FEE IS JUST A ONE TIME BD INTEGRATED AND IT'S YOUR SYSTEM. AND THEN YOU'RE GOING TO BE WORKING WITH MASTER METER USING THEIR SOFTWARE. AND WORKING WITH THEM. IT IS A PART OF THEIR SOFTWARE IN THEIR UPKEEP. SO IS IT AN APP? IS AN APP AND YOU CAN ALSO GO ON WEB AS WEAPONS. WONDERFUL I THINK THIS I THINK OUR CITIZENS WILL LOVE THIS THING. I'M JUST FOR CLARIFICATION IF YOU SET A $200 LIMIT YOUR WATER SHUTS OFF, OKAY. I JUST WANTED TO WANT YOU TO CLARIFY THAT FOR US ALERT.

OKAY VERY HOUSEHOLD. YEAH. SHOULD SHUT UP. IT WILL BE ALERT. YES. AND THEN I JUST WANT TO POINT OUT TO SINCE MAURICE THROUGHOUT THE PRICE WHEN WE'RE LOOKING AT OTHER SYSTEMS WHEN THERE'S THAT PRICE PER CUSTOMER USE, YOU'RE TALKING OVER $130,000 A YEAR.

SO FOR US TO GO TO THIS VENDOR. HOPEFULLY, YOU CAN UNDERSTAND THAT COST IS IT DIDN'T MATTER AND MADE. UM IT WAS 40% OF OUR DECISION, SO I THINK WE DID. WE CHOSE RIGHT. AND I HAVEN'T HEARD IT MENTIONED, BUT YOU TALKED ABOUT IT. DOING? THIS HELPS ACHIEVE OUR GOALS AS A COUNCIL AND ON AND ON AND THE CUSTOMER SATISFACTION ALL THAT AND YOU'RE GREEN INITIATIVE.

WATER CONSERVATION IS HUGE WATER CONSERVATION AND ALSO OVER TIME WILL HAVE LESS LABOR.

THERE'S WE DON'T HAVE PEOPLE OUT DRIVING THE ENTIRE CITY READING EVERY SINGLE METER, SO THERE'S A SAVINGS AS WELL TO THE EXACTLY SO WE DO A LOT OF INS AND OUT A LOT OF MOVE OUTS.

AND SO WE'RE ON AVERAGING 500 PEOPLE MOVE IN AND OUT IN A WEEK. SO THAT IS A METER TRIPS.

SOMETIMES TWO TRIPS THIS WAY WE CAN READ REMOTELY AND THE GUYS DON'T HAVE TO GO OUT OR SAVING THAT MILEAGE, AND WE CAN JUST GET THE FINAL READ. AND THEN THAT START READ ALL IN THE OFFICE, SO IT'S HUGE. THANK YOU SO MUCH. THANK YOU, SIR. YOU MIGHT HAVE TO FIRE SOME STAFF.

WE WILL. WE WON'T THEM. ANY MORE OF US WILL BE ABLE TO DO HIGHER LEVEL WORK HIGHER LEFT.

[02:00:02]

ALL RIGHT, UM NEXT ITEM. 2. COMMERCIAL KITCHENS, AND I KNOW THERE'S SOME PEOPLE HERE. UM.

[Update on Commercial Kitchens]

THAT ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THAT. I CAN TELL YOU. IT IS. OFFICIAL PIPER GLEN SITE IS NO LONGER BEING SOUGHT BY COMMERCIAL GHOST KITCHEN. WHATEVER YOU WANT TO GHOST KITCHEN CRAVES SPECIFICALLY ANY GHOST KITCHEN. NO LONGER A BEING PURSUED. SO THEY HAVE IDENTIFIED ANOTHER SITE. UM WAY AND. WHAT IS, I GUESS, GENERALLY CONSIDERED TO BE A MORE. IT'S MORE APPROPRIATE SITE AND THEY WE ARE EXCITED AS WE COULD BE TO HAVE THEM COMING TO MCKINNEY AND DELIVERING FANTASTIC FOOD AND ABLE TO DO THAT WITHOUT THE UNSETTLING THAT WAS HAPPENING PRIOR. SO WITH THAT STATEMENT, I THINK WE HAVE MR QUINT. ARE YOU DOING ANY PRESENTATION. I JUST I HAVE IT HERE. I DON'T KNOW. THERE'S AN UPDATE BEYOND THAT. WE NEED AT THIS POINT.

STAYING FOR ANY QUESTIONS. I JUST MAKE A STATEMENT THAT. COMMENDS STAFF ON IT WAS A VERY COMPLICATED ISSUE. VERY EMOTIONAL ISSUE. AND THE STAFF REALLY HANDLED IT WELL, THEY MADE A GOOD DECISION FIRST WHEN THEY EVALUATED THE ZONING. AND THEN ALSO DAVID CRAIG GOT INVOLVED, AND I DEFINITELY WANT TO THANK DAVID. HE WENT OVER AND ABOVE WHAT HE NEEDED TO DO, UH, TO GET THIS RESOLVED. WITHOUT WITHOUT DAVID CRAIG'S EFFORTS IT WOULD NOT HAVE RESOLVED THIS WAY. SO. I'D LIKE TO SAY THE SAME THING FROM AS MANY EMAILS. WE HAD EVERYTHING ELSE. I THINK YOU'D HAVE BEEN HANDLED A BETTER WAY. TO BE HONEST WITH THE WOOD STARTED TELL IT ENDS LIKE HOW IT STARTED. HOW IT ENDED. IT WAS A BETTER ONE. BECAUSE WE TOOK A LOT OF HEAT HERE. I THINK THE MAYOR DID AN UNBELIEVABLE JOB OF SETTLING A LOT OF NERVES. UH DAVID ALWAYS DOES A GREAT JOB. HE'S HE'S A HE'S ONE OF THE PILLARS OF THIS COMMUNITY. SO.

THAT THAT WAS A GREAT, UH IT IS ONE OF THE SITUATION WHERE YOU LOOK BACK AND SAY, WELL, THAT'S HOW WAS HANDLED RIGHT, MAKING SURE I KNOW THAT I WANTED TO SAY WELL, WHO WON YOU KNOW? WELL, I THINK EVERYONE DID BECAUSE NO ONE KNOWS WHAT HAPPENED. SO THAT'S WHEN YOU KNOW THE GOOD JOB WAS DONE. I'M GOING TO MAKE A. MAY NOT BE THE BEST THING TO SAY, BUT I'LL SAY IT. I'M GOING TO MAKE A SUGGESTION. THERE'S A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF EMAILS. I THINK EVERYONE UP HERE RECEIVED AND SOME VERY, VERY AGGRESSIVE. SOME, YOU KNOW, NOT SO PLEASANT. WOULD ASK PEOPLE TO CONSIDER THE SAME THAT SEND THAT SAME NUMBER OF EMAILS TO STAFF AND DAVID CRAIG AND JUST LET THEM KNOW HOW MUCH YOU APPRECIATE THE WORK THAT THEY DID ON BEHALF OF THE REQUEST THAT. RESIDENTS MADE STAFF AND STAFF GETS A LOT OF. LOT OF EMAILS THAT ARE, UM YOU KNOW, UNPLEASANT AND COMPLAINING. THEY DON'T GET NEAR THE NUMBER OF EMAILS THAT THEY DESERVE, WHICH IS EXPONENTIALLY GREATER THAN ANY COMPLAINT. SO YOU TOOK THE TIME TO WRITE THAT EMAIL. I ASK YOU TO CONSIDER WRITING WRITING THIS EMAIL. CAUSE YOU GUYS DID A FANTASTIC JOB. DAVID CRAIG. SAY IT AGAIN. WHEN THE SPIRIT OF MCKINNEY AWARD FOR A REASON. HERE'S ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF WHAT HE DOES. SO THANK YOU, DAVID. THANK YOU, MICHAEL.

THANK YOU, EVERYONE THAT WAS INVOLVED. I HOPE I NEVER USE THE WORD CRAVE AGAIN, OTHER THAN DESCRIBING A FEELING I'M HAVING. YES WE WEREN'T CRAZY. NO, I NO, NO, NO. I'M SAYING CRAVED CALLING THEM. YES, I YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN? I'M NOT USING. I WILL USE THEM THE MOMENT THEY OPENED THE DOOR. I DIDN'T MEAN IT THAT WAY. I MEANT HERE ON THE DIET. ALL RIGHT. WE ARE NOW AT PUBLIC COMMENTS. ANY ANY PUBLIC COMMENTS. I DON'T SHOW ANY SPEAKERS, BUT MY SCREEN HAS GONE OFF. UM. WE DON'T HAVE ANY COUNCIL LIAISON, UPDATES REGARDING BOARDS AND

[COUNCIL LIAISON UPDATES REGARDING BOARDS & COMMISSIONS]
