[00:05:05]

ANY QUESTIONS FOR STAFF. I HAVE ONE. WHAT'S WHAT'S HAPPENING RIGHT THERE. SO THAT IS THE THAT IS THE COMPONENT WHERE THEY HAD EARMARKED IT FOR COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT. SO THAT WAS NOT PART OF THE HOMES THAT WILL BE BUILT THERE. THERE'S GOING TO BE COMMERCIAL THERE. THAT IS CORRECT. THAT'S ALL I HAD. DO WE HAVE EMOTION? YOU WANT TO SPEAK ? NOT SURE IF THEY'RE HERE. WE DON'T I DON'T BELIEVE THAT ARE AFRICAN IS HERE. NOT FOR BLACK, THEN I, MR. PERRY, PRETEND IF YOU DON'T MIND, I HAVE ONE. I THOUGHT MAYBE THE AFRICAN BEE HERE.

I DON'T KNOW IF WE'RE ABLE TO PULL THE PLAN ITSELF UP. UM THERE YOU GO RIGHT THERE. SO WHAT YOU'LL SEE IS THE TOWN HOME SORT OF TAKE THE L SHAPE ALONG HERE. UM, AND SO WE'LL HAVE.

[Conduct Public Hearing to Consider/Discuss/Act on the Adoption of the Budget Appropriation Ordinance for FY 2022-23]

THIRD WE HOLD A PUBLIC HEARING ON THE OVERALL TAX RATE. UM AFTER THAT PUBLIC HEARING, A SPECIFIC MOTION MUST BE RED AND THE TAX RATE WOULD BE ADOPTED WITH A ROLL CALL VOTE AT THAT POINT, AND THEN FINALLY TO SUPPORT THE OVERALL BUDGET THAT'S BEEN PASSED, STAFF WOULD ASK THAT YOU PASSED THE RATE IN FEE ORDINANCE OF THE FOR THE NEXT FISCAL YEAR. IT'S MANNER CHANGES THIS YEAR WITH THE WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE WATER AND SEWER RATES. THOSE WERE THE INCREASES THAT WE DETAILED DURING THE BUDGET WORKSHOP PROCESS. WE'RE PASSING ON SOME SOME INCREASES THAT WE'RE GETTING FROM THE NORTH. TEXT MINISTER WATER DISTRICT SO THAT'S WHERE WE'RE HEADED FOR THE NEXT FOUR ITEMS, AND I WILL BEGIN WITH THE WITH A SHORT PRESENTATION. YOU HAVE SEEN THIS PRESENTATION BEFORE BEFORE WE HEADED AT THE LAST COUNCIL MEETING, BUT WE'RE DOING BE DOING A PUBLIC HEARING THIS OFFICIAL PUBLIC HEARING ON THE BUDGET SO JUST GO THROUGH A FEW OF THE HIGHLIGHTS FOR EVERYBODY. THE MAIN ONE IS WILL BE DEEP WITH THIS BUDGET AND THE TAX RATE WILL BE DECREASING THE PROPERTY TAX RATE OF THE CITY BY FOUR CENTS TO JUST ABOUT A LITTLE OVER 45 CENTS. OUR SALES TAX REMAIN STRONG. OUR DATA KEEPS COMING IN. WE THINK WE'VE GOT A GOOD NUMBER FOR THE END OF THE YEAR AND A 5% INCREASE BUILT IN FOR THE NEXT FISCAL YEAR, WHICH IS FAIRLY CONSERVATIVE, BUT WILL ALLOW US TO CHANGE OF THE ECONOMY CHANGES. THE 23 BUDGET WILL PROVIDE MARKET ADJUSTMENTS FOR ALL OF OUR EMPLOYEES. STEP INCREASES OUR BUDGET IN THE FISCAL YEAR 23 BUDGET WE DO HAVE AN ALLOWANCE

[00:10:06]

GENERAL FUND EXPENDITURES. IT'S BALANCED BUDGET. AH ABOUT JUST UNDER 50% OF THE OF THE BUDGET 46% FOR POLICE AND FIRE THAT'S FAIRLY STANDARD. WE HAVE SHOWN THE SLIDES COMPARING US TO OUR SISTER, CITIES AND CITIES ACROSS STATE. THIS IS CLEARLY ABOUT WHAT YOU SEE ON THE ON THE GENERAL FUND SIDE. THESE ARE THE STAFFING EDITIONS. THE 50 THAT I MENTIONED. YOU SEE THE 27 GOING TO PUBLIC SAFETY THERE? UM NOT A LOT OF NEW PROGRAMS THIS YEAR. THIS IS A LOT OF BEEFING UP STAFF BECAUSE WE ARE STRETCHED VERY, VERY THIN AS YOU'LL SEE WE'VE TALKED ABOUT IN OUR BUDGET WORKSHOP IN A GROWING CITY. THAT'S WHAT YOU START SEEING, NOT LIKE I SAID, NOT A TON OF NEW PROGRAMS THIS YEAR, A LOT OF STARTING TO FILL IN SOME OF OUR GAPS. ON THE WATER WASTEWATER SIDE THAT WATERLINE REPLACEMENT PROGRAM WE STARTED YEARS AGO TO BRING OUR WATER LOSS DOWN. WE'RE GONNA CONTINUE THAT WE'RE STARTING TO COME TOWARDS THE END OF THAT. BUT AS YOU REPLACE THOSE COPPER LINES WILL START BACK OVER, BUT THAT THAT HAS BEEN, UH, A BIG SUCCESS. WE DO ANTICIPATE THAT SELL FOR FISCAL 23 FOR CAPITAL PROJECTS ON THE WATER AND WASTEWATER SIDE. AND WE ARE ADDING SOME SUPPLEMENTALS FOR SOME POSITIONS INTO SOME AND SOME UM, EQUIPMENT AS WELL.

FAIRLY MODEST FOR THAT SIZE OF A BUDGET. UM THAT'S BECAUSE OF OUR WATER AND WASTEWATER RAISED. WE ARE GOING TO SEE ABOUT 13.4% INCREASE OUR COST OF OUR WATER FROM NORTH TEXAS. AND ABOUT 8.5% INCREASE ON WASTEWATER. UM. A LOT OF DIFFERENT REASONS THAT THEY'RE PASSING THAT ON. WE DIDN'T SEE RATE INCREASES FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS. UM BUT SO WE'RE CATCHING UP TO US THIS YEAR.

WE'RE GOING TO PASS ON A LITTLE BIT LESSER OF RATE INCREASE ON OUR SIDE. WE'RE GONNA BE ABLE TO HANDLE SOME OF IT THROUGH GROWTH IS RECALL WE TALKED ABOUT WITH OUR RAY CONSULTANTS BUT ABOUT 9% INCREASE ON WATER AND 8% INCREASE ON WASTEWATER. ALLOWS US TO CONTINUE TO SAY SUBSTANCE FISSION AND MAINTAIN THE COVERAGE LEVELS THAT WE NEED TO MAINTAIN. WITH THAT. THIS IS THE LAST SCHEDULED MEETING WE HAVE FOR THE BUDGET THIS YEAR. LIKE I SAID FOUR ITEMS. AND WITH THAT, I'LL BE HAPPY TO SIT DOWN AND PUBLIC HEARING TO TAKE PLACE ON THE BUDGET FOR THE SHOW. ANY QUESTIONS QUESTIONS BEFORE THEM. NO QUESTIONS. SO WE HAVE A WITNESS IS REQUIRED A RECORD VOTE WITH ALL IN AND THEN ALSO, THE LANGUAGE NEEDS TO BE YOU DON'T OKAY? I'M SORRY. WELL, ANY ANYBODY SIGNED UP TO SPEAK. VERY I WANT TO SPEAK ON THIS. VOTE TO OPEN THE PUBLIC. JUST SAY THAT THIS IS A PUBLIC HEARING ITEM. UM. NOBODY WANTS TO COME FORWARD TO SAY ANYTHING SO WELL, UM WE'LL NEED A MOTION TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING CANADA AND I THINK THE BROKE. AND READ THE MOTION MOTION THAT WE CLOSED THE PUBLIC HEARING. UH HUH, AND APPROVED. COORDINATES HAS PRESENTED. READ IT. I'LL BE HAPPY TO DO THAT. I THINK HE NEEDS TO READ IT RIGHT. THERE'S NO JUST OKAY. THE LANGUAGE ON THE NEXT TWO ITEMS THE NEXT TO IS THAT, OKAY? SO YOU SPECIFIC LANGUAGE ON THE NEXT TWO, OKAY, WE GOT A MOTION BY COUNCILMAN PHILLIPS SECOND. REQUIRE A ROLE CALLED REQUIRE A ROLL CALL VOTE . OKAY START MISSISSIPPI, TERRY. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES FOOD?

[00:15:12]

[Consider/Discuss/Act on an Ordinance to Ratify the Property Tax Revenue Increase in the Fiscal Year 2022-23 Budget as a Result of the City Receiving More Revenues from Property Taxes than the Previous Fiscal Year]

OF THAT AMOUNT 4,084,000. IT'S TAX REVENUE TO BE RAISED FROM NEW PROPERTY ADDED TO THE TAX ROLLS THIS YEAR. WE HAVE A MOTION TO HAVE A SECOND SECOND OKAY. AND THEN WE GOT A BROKE ALL NOT ON THIS ONE. OKAY ALL IN FAVOR. MOTION PASSES. I DON'T 22 8 TO 5 CONDUCTED PUBLIC HEARING

[Conduct Public Hearing to Consider/Discuss/Act on an Ordinance Adopting a Tax Rate for Fiscal Year 2022-23 (Tax Year 2022)]

NO SIDE, THE TAX RATE WOULD BE 0.457485. WE DID SET A TAX RATE CEILING OF 0.459547. THIS DOES INDICATE ABOUT A FOUR CENT TAX DECREASES. YOU CAN SEE TAX RATE DECREASE. AS YOU CAN SEE ON THE PROPOSED PROPERTY TAX RATES. YOU CAN SEE WHERE WE'RE AT 40.497 IN FISCAL YEAR 22 WERE ANTICIPATING BEING AT 220.45748. THE DEBT RATE PORTION BEING 0.145688. IF YOU WERE RECALLED, WE JUST TALKED ABOUT BOND ELECTION AND HOW WE ATTEMPT TO KEEP THE INS RATE STABLE. YOU CAN SEE THAT JUST BECAUSE OF THE WAY THE VALUES GROUP AFTER WE SOLD THAT FOR THE YEAR, THE DEBT RATE IS ACTUALLY SHRINKING BY ALMOST ONE CENT, WHICH WAS GOOD, BUT IT WAS ALSO A LITTLE BIT UNINTENTIONAL, BUT IT NEEDED TO HAPPEN AT THE VALUE LEVELS WE WERE SEEING. SO UM, THAT DID COME DOWN A LITTLE BIT. AS YOU CAN SEE, OVER TIME, OUR TAX RATE HAS DECREASED FROM FISCAL YEAR 14 10 YEARS WE HAVE GONE DOWN. ALMOST 14 CENTS ABOUT 13 CENTS. SO UM, PRETTY SIGNIFICANT DECREASE IN THE TAX RATE. YOU SHOULD SEE THAT WHEN YOU SEE THE VALUES GROW THAT THE WAY THEY HAVE UM, THIS IS THE OVERALL PROPERTY TAX RATE. AS YOU CAN SEE, UM 0.31 ON THE MAINTENANCE AND OPERATION SIDE.

DOWN ALMOST THREE CENTS A LITTLE OVER THREE CENTS, AND THEN THE OTHER PART OF THE FOUR SENSE COMING FROM THE DEBT RATE ON THE DECREASED SIDE. AND ONCE AGAIN YOU'VE SEEN ALL THIS. THIS IS THE PUBLIC HEARING, SO I'LL BE HAPPY TO TAKE ANY QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU HAVE THE PUBLIC HEARING. ANY QUESTIONS? NONE. THIS IS A PUBLIC HEARING. I SEE NOBODY HAS SIGNED UP. ANYBODY WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON. THIS IS WELCOME TO COME UP AND SPEAK. NOT I WILL MOTION MOTION. THOSE PUBLIC HEARING. OKAY? MHM AND SECOND. GOT A MOTION AND A SECOND ON THE THERE WE GO VOTE.

THERE YOU GO. OKAY REMEMBER , 21? OH OH 72 Z THREE

[Conduct a Public Hearing to Consider/Discuss/Act on a Request to Rezone the Subject Property from “PD” - Planned Development District and “REC” - Regional Employment Center Overlay District to “PD” - Planned Development District, Generally to Modify the Development Standards and to Allow for Single Family Residential and Commercial Uses, Located on the Northwest Corner of McKinney Ranch Parkway and Silverado Trail, and Accompanying Ordinance]

PROPERTY FROM PD PLAN DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT TO PD PLAN DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT. ATTRACT ITSELF IS ABOUT 9.6 ACRES IN SIZE, AND THE CURRENT ZONING ON THE PROPERTY ALLOWS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF RETAIL OFFICE AND LIVE WORK RESIDENTIAL ON THE TRACT AS PART OF THE EXISTING PD , WHICH IS GOVERNED ALSO BY THE CITY'S REGIONAL EMPLOYMENT CENTER STANDARDS OR THE RFC.

WITH THE PROPOSED REZONING REQUEST TO THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING TO ALLOW FOR THE

[00:25:04]

IT COULD, BUT I MEAN THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC. THERE ARE TWO POINTS OF ACCESS AND WE DON'T HAVE THE FULL CHURCH PROPERTY HERE. YOU KNOW THE CONNECTION OF THAT FIRE LANE. GOOD HERE WE GO. IT IS DEDICATED TO COME OUT THIS WAY. AND THAT PURPLE SO IF THEY ADDED MORE PARKING HERE, YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. IF THIS CONNECTION IS MADE FROM HERE TO MCKINNEY RANCH PARKWAY, TRAFFIC COULD COME OUT THAT DIRECTION. IT COULD ALSO GO OUT TO THE EAST AND COME OUT ON THE OTHER TWO POINTS OF ACCESS FOR THAT CHURCH PROPERTY. OKAY, SO THEY HAVE TO CONNECT. WHAT WHAT THEY'VE DONE IS BASICALLY STRAIGHTENED EVERYTHING OUT, SO IT'S MORE OF A DIRECT, SO THEY'RE NOT WINDING

[00:30:01]

I WOULD ALSO NOTE THAT THAT PROTEST WRITTEN PROTEST THAT WAS SUBMITTED HOUSES ALREADY LOOKING AT ME WAS NOT SUBMITTED PURSUANT TO THE TIME REQUIREMENTS WITHIN THE ZONING ORDINANCE, WE WOULD HAVE NEEDED TO GET THAT LAST WEEK IN ORDER TO HAVE IT BE VALIDATED, BUT I DIDN'T WANT TO NOTE FOR THE RECORD THAT WE DID GET THAT JUST FOR THE SAKE OF KNOWLEDGE. WE DID RUN THE QUICK NUMBER, SO WE WANTED TO SHARE THAT WITH YOU. THANK YOU, AFRICAN. HERE THEY ARE. GOOD

[00:35:01]

THERE'S A 45 FT HEIGHT LIMIT. WE'VE GONE DOWN TO 35. SO WE'RE TRYING TO GET THERE. WE UNDERSTAND THAT THE BUILDING POTENTIALLY COULD BLOCK THEIR VIEW. BUT WE'RE LOOKING AT PROBABLY A ONE STORY BUILDING. BASED ON THIS DRAWING WHAT WE CAN PARK. IF WE GO TO STORIES, THE FOOTPRINT WILL GET SMALLER. BUT IT DOESN'T MAKE ECONOMIC SENSE TO PUT AN ELEVATOR IN A 50 BY 50 FT BUILDING. SO WE'RE LOOKING AT DOING THE PLAN THAT WE HAVE HERE. AND WE RESPECTFULLY REQUEST YOUR APPROVAL. I'LL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. QUESTIONS. STARTLED JUST FOR CLARIFICATION. WHAT IS THE HEIGHT MAXIMUM HEIGHT ALLOWED FOR A TWO STORY HOME. CITY. SO OUR SINGLE FAMILY ZONING DISTRICTS CAP BUILDING HEIGHTS AT 35 FT, WHICH IS TYPICAL MAX HEIGHT FOR A TWO STORY HOME. HEY, ANY QUESTIONS? THANK YOU.

[00:40:06]

AND IF THE CONVERSATION IS ONLY MOVING IN ONE DIRECTION IS BY DEFINITION, NOT A NEGOTIATION.

AT THIS POINT, I WOULD LIKE TO ASK THAT THIS BODY EITHER. TABLE THIS SUBJECT AND REMANDED BACK SO THAT THE CHURCH AND THE DEVELOPERS CAN HAVE A TRUE GOOD FAITH NEGOTIATION ABOUT THE PLAN. OR VOTE NO FOR THE PLAN. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. BRIAN ELDRIDGE. THANK YOU. MY NAME IS BRIAN. ELEGANT. LIVE AT 58 21 RUBBLE STONE DRIVE IN THE BROOKSTONE NEIGHBORHOOD. IT WAS UP ON THE MAP THAT'S BEHIND THIS PROPERTY. UM WERE OPPOSED TO THIS BEING MOVED UP THE C TWO FOR SEVERAL REASONS. UM YOU'RE JUST NOT HEARING FROM US BECAUSE WE JUST HEARD FROM THE CHURCH ON FRIDAY NIGHT. BECAUSE WE HAVE NOT BEEN INVITED TO THIS CONVERSATION. AND THIS IS AN INTERESTING WAY TO OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. IT IS. VERY IMPORTANT TO US WHAT HAPPENS TO THIS LAND? AND. PUTTING TOWN HOMES IN THERE. WE ALREADY HAVE. SCHOOLS THAT ARE FULL OF KIDS.

[00:45:04]

[00:50:02]

UM THIS WOULD NOT BE A CONCERN EXCEPT THAT THE THREE OTHER SIDES OF OUR PROPERTY I HAVE NO YOU THERE'S NO VIEW OF THE CHURCH FROM THOSE OTHER SIDES. THERE'S NEIGHBORHOODS ON TWO SIDES. ANOTHER STREET, BUT IT HAS, UM RETAIL THERE. AS TO, UM LIKE A MONTESSORI SCHOOL AND A DAUGHTER SCHOOL AND, UM, YOU CAN'T FROM FROM RIDGE ROAD. YOU CAN'T SEE THE CHURCH FROM THAT ROAD. SO THIS CURVED STREET THAT IS MCKINNEY RANCH PARKWAY. UM YOU COULD. YOU REALLY CAN'T. IF YOU PUT A EVEN, YOU KNOW. COMMERCIAL BUILDING THERE. YOU'RE ONLY GOING TO SEE THE CHURCH WHEN YOU'RE COMING. ONE DIRECTION. SO UM, AND SO WE REALLY WOULD LIKE TO KEEP THAT AT 25 FT. AND I REQUEST THAT. WE THE COUNCIL VOTE AGAINST THIS. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. CYNTHIA PORTER GORE. MAYOR, PRO TEM COUNCIL CITY MANAGER GROUNDS AND STAFF. I AM CYNTHIA PORTER GORE. I LIVE AT 2007 GLEN MERE DRIVE IN ALLEN, TEXAS, A MEMBER OF ST ANDREWS SINCE 2009. I SERVED ON THE VESTRY THAT DEVELOPED AND BUILT THAT INITIAL BUILDING MY HUSBAND CURRENTLY SERVES ON THE VESTRY IS CONTINUING TO OVERSEE THIS. WE DO AN OBJECT TO THIS SPECIFICALLY, WE'RE ASKING THAT HEIGHT RESTRICTIONS BE IMPOSED OF NO MORE THAN 25 FT ALONG THE SMALL AREA THAT THEY'RE CLAIMING TO BE COMMERCIAL, SO IT DOESN'T OBSTRUCT THE VIEW OF THE CHURCH.

FURTHERMORE THE FIRE LANE ACCESS IS NECESSARY WITH THE INTENDED DEVELOPMENT OF THE PROPERTY. IT SOUNDS LIKE TONIGHT AFTER LISTENING TO EVERYONE, THE MOST SIMPLE SOLUTION THAT GIVES THE BUILDER AND DEVELOPER THEIR GOALS AND MEETS THE SATISFACTION OF THE CHURCH AND OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD COMMUNITY IS IF WE ELIMINATE THE COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT IF IT'S LIMITED SOLELY TO SINGLE RESIDENTS, HOMES, WHETHER IT BE TOWN HOMES OR NOT. AND THE AREA THERE IN FRONT OF OUR CHURCH BE LIMITED TO A 25 FT HEIGHTS. I THINK THAT'S THE COMPROMISE THAT SATISFIES EVERYONE AND ALSO PREVENTS THE CONCERNS THAT HAS BEEN EXPRESSED BY THE MEMBERS OF

[00:55:03]

THANK YOU. THANK YOU, SIR. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. JULIA ANDERSON. HI HELLO. THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK HERE TONIGHT AT THE MCKINNEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING. MY NAME IS JULIE ANDERSON AND I LIVE. DO I HAVE MY EXACT ADDRESS? YES OKAY , 35. OH, ONE HAVASU. I LIVE WITHIN ONE MILE OF THE PROPOSED BUILD. AND MY FAMILY AND I ARE ACTIVE MEMBERS AT SAINT ANDREWS EPISCOPAL CHURCH. AND YES, I HAVE THREE CHILDREN. AND THEY DO , ATTEND AND PARTICIPATE THERE VERY FREQUENTLY. THE DEVELOPERS LETTER OF INTENT IS NOT PRESENTED IN GOOD FAITH. IT DOES NOT MATCH THE SALES PLAN. THE CONCEPT PLAN SHOWS 48.4 ACRES OF TOWN HOMES, PLUS A 5000 SQUARE FOOT RETAIL. WITH TWO WIDE ACCESS DRIVEWAYS FOR THE RETAIL BUILDING. WELL IT APPEARS GOOD FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING. THERE ISN'T ALLOWANCE FOR THE FIRE LINE INFRASTRUCTURE THAT WAS IN PLACE WHEN THE SURROUNDING LAND WAS DEVELOPED. FURTHERMORE THE DEVELOPER SALES PLAN HAS A MIRROR 5.6 ACRES OF TOWN HOMES AND 4.1 ACRES OF RETAIL. WITH ONLY ONE NARROWER DRIVEWAY.

WITHOUT CODES IMPLEMENTED IN THIS REZONE THIS WILL NOT QUIT. THIS WILL QUICKLY BECOME AN EYESORE. AND UNNECESSARY TRAFFIC AND SAFETY ISSUE. AND, YES, I FEEL DEVELOPMENT LIKE THIS IS NOT IN THE BEST INTEREST OF MCKINNEY PERIOD. IT IS DIFFICULT TO TRUST, A DEVELOPER WHO SAYS ONE THING TO THE CITY COUNCIL THAT IS PERMIT GRANTING PERMITS AND THEN SOMETHING COMPLETELY DIFFERENT IN THEIR SALES PLAN. I WOULD ASK THAT YOU OPPOSE THIS. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. GREG PAPPAS. GOOD EVENING, MAYOR PROTEIN ROGERS AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL. PLEASURE TO BE HERE TONIGHT. I AM GREG PAPPAS AND I LIVE AT 300 GIBBONS CREEK TRAIL IN MCKINNEY AND A MEMBER OF ST ANDREWS EPISCOPAL CHURCH SINCE 2007. FOR THE RECORD. I ALSO OPPOSE THE PROPOSED ZONING CHANGE AT THE CORNER OF SILVERADO TRAIL IN MCKINNEY RANCH PARKWAY REFERRED CONFLICTING REPORTS TONIGHT WHETHER OR NOT. NEGOTIATIONS HAVE TAKEN PLACE. I'M NOT GONNA STAND HERE AND DEBATE THOSE, AGAIN ARE PRIMARY CONCERNS ARE ABOUT THE FIRE LANE THROUGH THE PROPOSED PROJECT, THE MINIMUM BUILDING HEIGHT IN FRONT OF THE CHURCH PROPERTY AND SPECIFIC COMMERCIAL SLASH RETAIL USAGE. UM I MAY HAVE MISUNDERSTOOD WHAT WAS GOING TO BE PART OF THE RETAIL USE, BUT I THOUGHT I HEARD ADULT ENTERTAINMENT ORIENTED BUSINESS IS THAT CORRECT? THAT'S EXCLUDED THAT'S BEEN EXCLUDED. OH EXCLUDED. THANK YOU. OKAY CROSS THAT OFF.

HAVING HEARD THAT I ALSO RECOMMEND THE CITY COUNCIL TABLE. THE REQUEST. UNTIL COMPROMISES REACHED OR VOTE. NO. THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION. THANK YOU, SIR.

EDWARDS FEARLESS. GOOD EVENING. THANKS THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. MY NAME IS EDWARD SEARLES AND I LIVE AT 7 25. BRISTOL WOULD DRIVE OUT IN MCKINNEY. SO UM I'M ALSO A MEMBER OF THE ST ANDREW'S EPISCOPAL CHURCH. I OPPOSE THE PROPOSED ZONING CHANGE ON THE NORTH CORNER, SILVERADO TRAIL AND MCKINNEY RANCH PARKWAY. WE NEED TO NEGOTIATE SOMETHING THAT WILL WORK FOR BOTH PARTIES. AND

[01:00:01]

AND BEING ABLE TO SEE THE CHURCH. OBVIOUSLY SOMETHING YOU'VE HEARD QUITE A FEW TIMES.

SO UM, WE WOULD EITHER LIKE THIS DEFERRED OR HAVE YOU VOTE NO ON IT. THANK YOU. KATHERINE KELLER.

GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS KATHERINE KELLER AND I LIVE AT 801 MAYBERRY DRIVE IN MCKINNEY, TEXAS, AND I AM ALSO A MEMBER OF ST ANDREWS EPISCOPAL CHURCH SINCE ITS FOUNDING WHEN WE USED TO MEET AND PEOPLE'S HOMES AND SCHOOLS AND WE FINALLY HAD OUR CHURCH BUILT. I ALSO OPPOSED THIS ZONING CHANGE AT THE NORTH CORNER OF SILVERADO TRAIL AND MCKINNEY RANCH PARKWAY BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE THEY WOULD LANGUAGE IS AMBIGUOUS AT BEST, WHERE AS YOU'VE HEARD BEFORE, WHEN THERE'S A LOT OF IFS, ANDS OR BUTS. WE MAY DO THIS OR THAT. YEAH I JUST CAN'T TRUST THAT. UM I WOULD LIKE TO SEE SOMETHING SPECIFIC. AND HAVE YOU HAVE THE CITY COUNCIL ABOUT ON THAT, UM.

MY PRIMARY CONCERN IS ALSO THE FIRE LANE AS WE GROW AS A CHURCH. AND ALSO THE RESTRICTIONS THAT ARE IN FRONT. THAT PIECE OF PROPERTY IS DIRECTLY. THERE IS NO STREET, SO IT'S DIRECTLY PART OF OUR LAND AND WHICH BELONGS TO THEM, THOUGH, SO WE WOULD I WOULD JUST LIKE TO ASK THAT YOU REALLY LOOK AT THIS AND SEE OUR CONCERNS AS A CHURCH WHO HAS A LOT OF MINISTRIES THAT ARE REALLY IMPORTANT TO THE CITY OF MCKINNEY AND EITHER TABLE THIS CONVERSATION OR VOTE. NO, THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THOMAS. GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS KEN THOMAS.

I LIVE AT 81 2 OH ONE SONIC DRIVE IN MCKINNEY, TEXAS. LIKE THE REST. I AM ALSO A MEMBER OF ST ANDREWS EPISCOPAL CHURCH. OPPOSED THE PROPOSED ZONING CHANGES AT THE NORTH CORNER OF SILVERADO TRAILS IN MCKINNEY RANCH PARKWAY. BECAUSE THE OWNER HAS NOT FULLY ADDRESSED THE CONCERNS OF ST ANDREWS EPISCOPAL CHURCH, AS RECOMMENDED AT THE AUGUST 16TH CITY COUNCIL MEETING WITH THE CHURCH PRESENTED THEY'RE CONCERNED. THE PRIMARY CONCERNS OR ABOUT. A ST ANDREWS FIRE LANE THROUGH THE PROPOSED PROJECTS, MINIMUM BUILDING HEIGHTS. IN FRONT OF CHURCH PROPERTY IN SPECIFICS. COMMERCIAL RETAIL BUILDING USES I RECOMMEND THE CITY COUNCIL TABLED A REQUEST. UNTIL A COMPROMISE IS REACHED OR VOTE. NO THANK YOU. SARAH CHARETTE.

COUNCIL MEMBERS. MY NAME IS SARAH. SHIRT. UM I LIVE AT TWO OF FOUR. LOS RIOS DRIVE HAVE BEEN A MEMBER OF ST ANDREWS, NOW FOR FIVE YEARS. I'M ON THE BEST TREAT MY HUSBAND AND I OWN A BUSINESS AT 301 WITH CUSTARD MODE. MANY PAUL PERRY ON SPOT. I UNDERSTAND HOW CONCEPT MAPS WORK, BECAUSE THAT'S HOW WE DECIDED ON OUR LOCATION. WHAT'S BEEN ZONED OR SAID COMING SOON MEDICARE MEDICAL CENTER AT THE CORNER OF VIRGINIA QATAR HAS BEEN THERE FOR 11 YEARS.

NOTHING'S EVER BEEN BUILT. SO JUST BECAUSE THEY SAY THAT THIS IS WHAT'S GOING ON THE CONCEPT MAP DOESN'T MEAN IT'S GONNA HAPPEN, AND HE SAID THAT OH, WE COULD. THIS IS WHAT WE THINK WE'RE GOING TO DO. THERE'S OTHER MEMBERS HAVE SAID. THEY SELL IT. THEN IT'S WIDE OPEN VICTORY GROUP OWNED HARVEST OUR SHOPPING CENTER. THEN THEY SOLD IT. NOW WE HAVE A BAIT SHOP WHO NEEDS ANOTHER VAPE SHOP SO LOOKING AT THE IDEAS THAT THEY HAVE. LISTEN, I HAVE LOOKED AT PULLED UP. WHAT'S ON THE LIST OF RECOMMENDED RETAIL. WE ALREADY HAVE DONUTS, DENTIST AND DRY CLEANERS ON THE CORNER AT AH! IT READ. SO THOSE AREN'T OBVIOUSLY GOING TO GO INTO THAT SPACE.

WHAT'S LEFT A BAIT SHOP? WHERE'S THE FISH? AND THE FISHERMEN WHICH WE CAN GO INTO THAT WITH FATHER ANDREW, BUT I MEAN, I HONESTLY WOULDN'T MIND LIKE A FARMER'S MARKET THAT WOULD BE KIND OF COOL BECAUSE THEN IT WOULD LEAD INTO SUPPORTING THE MINISTRIES AT ST ANDREWS HOLDS.

SO WE'VE GOT THE LITTLE FREE PANTRY IN THE BACK. IT GETS MORE BUSINESS. THEN. WHAT CAN. HELL

[01:05:03]

BUT UNLESS IT'S IN SOMETHING THAT'S PROPOSED AND PUT ON THE BOOKS, THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN THE MINIMUM BUILDING HEIGHT. THAT'S WHAT THEY'RE LOOKING AT IS NO MORE THAN 35 FT, BUT BECAUSE IT'S NOT GOING TO BE SPECIFIC. THERE'S NO TELLING WHAT HAPPENS IF YOU FLIP THE BILL IF YOU FLIP THE LAND. SO WE HAVE A LOT OF CONCERNS. ST ANDREWS IS A TREMENDOUS MEMBER OF THE COMMUNITY, AND THEY DO SO MUCH. FOR THE SURROUNDING AREAS AND THE FOUR OTHER APARTMENT COMPLEXES. THERE'S NOT THE INFRASTRUCTURE TO SUPPORT ADDITIONAL TOWN HOMES IN THAT AREA WITH THAT CURVE. I MEAN, HOW MANY MORE LANES ARE YOU GOING TO BUILD AND TRAFFIC LIGHTS AND EVERYTHING ELSE THAT'S GOING TO HAVE TO HAPPEN IN ORDER TO SUPPORT THAT MANY ADDITIONAL HOMES. AND I KNOW THAT THE HOMEOWNERS BEHIND THAT HAVE THE SAME CONCERNS SO PLEASE , EITHER TABLE THIS REQUEST OR UNTIL COMPROMISE CAN BE ACTUALLY REACHED WHERE THEY'RE NOT COMING IN THE DAY BEFORE THE WEEK BEFORE, WITH ALL OF THESE CONCERNS THE WEEK BEFORE, DURING A HOLIDAY WEEKEND OR VOTE NO, THANK YOU. THANK YOU. LOGAN HURST. MAYOR PRO TIM COUNCIL MEMBERS. I AM DEACON LOGAN HURST, A MEMBER OF THE CLERGY AS A DANGEROUS EPISCOPAL CHURCH AT 6400. MCKINNEY RATES PARKWAY. AND I OPPOSE THE PROPOSED ZONING CHANGE TO THE NORTH KOREA CORNER OF SILVERADO TRAIL MCKINNEY RANCH PARKWAY DUE TO THE SAME PRIMARY CONCERNS. NOT CODIFIED IN IN WRITING. UH THE PROPOSED FIRE LANE THROUGH THE PROPOSED PROJECT AND THE MINIMUM THE MINIMUM BUILDING HEIGHT IN FRONT OF THE CHURCH. PLEASE. EITHER TABLE, THE APPLICANTS REQUEST OR COMPROMISES, REACHED OR VOTE? NO. THANK YOU. UH, MAGGIE PICKER.

GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS MAGGIE PITKA. I LIVE AT 15 73 SWEET BRIAR DRIVE IN ALLEN, TEXAS. I HAVE BEEN A MEMBER OF ST ANDREWS EPISCOPAL CHURCH FOR SEVEN YEARS , AND I AM ALSO A MEMBER OF THE VESTRY. THESE COMMENTS ARE IN ADDITION TO THE REASONS STATED IN THE LETTER I SENT EARLIER AND ALSO UM, THEY SUPPORT OR GO ALONGSIDE, WITH ALL THE OTHER COMMENTS PEOPLE HAVE MADE REGARDING HEIGHT RESTRICTIONS. FIRE LANE ACCESS. ETCETERA, ETCETERA. I. IN MY VIEW, WE HAVE A SOMEWHAT OUT OF THE ORDINARY BUT SIGNIFICANT SIGNIFICANT COMMUNITY IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD COMPRISED OF INFANTS TO 90, SOMETHING'S AND BEYOND. IT IS MADE UP OF TWO CHILDCARE FACILITIES, A RETIREMENT ASSISTED LIVING FACILITY AND AN AMAZING CHURCH THAT SERVES THIS AND THE GREATER COMMUNITY IN ADDITION TO OUR MONTHLY FOOD DISTRIBUTION IN COOPERATION WITH THE NORTH TEXAS FOOD BANK. ST ANDREWS FEEDS THE HUNGRY WITH ITS LITTLE FREE PANTRY AND ITS MANY OUTREACH PROGRAMS. THIS AMERICAN IN SHILOH PLACE, HOLY FAMILY AND STILL MORE. WE PARTICIPATE IN VARIOUS PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES TO HELP THE KIDS AND FAMILIES OF BIRDS ELEMENTARY. WE ALSO HOST THE BOY SCOUTS FOR THEIR MONTHLY MEETINGS TO NAME SOME OF OUR OUTREACH ACTIVITIES. WITH ALL DUE RESPECT, IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THE DEVELOPER OF THE PROPERTY IN QUESTION COULD BE SOMEWHAT MORE OPEN AND FORTHRIGHT IN ITS VISION AND EFFORTS TO HAVE SOME REGARD FOR THE LONG TERM HEALTH AND WELFARE OF THIS COMMUNITY, RATHER THAN TO PANDER TO THE CURRENT TRENDS OF THE REAL ESTATE MARKET SOLELY FOR THE SAKE OF HIS INVESTMENT FOR PORTFOLIO. I REQUEST THAT YOU EITHER DENY THIS PROPOSAL, OR, UM, TABLE FOR FURTHER ACTION.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND ATTENTION. ANDREW VAN KIRK. MAYOR EFFORTS AND ROGERS MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL. GOOD EVENING AGAIN. I AM FATHER, ANDREW VAN KIRK CAME THE RECTOR OF ST ANDREWS FISCAL CHURCH, THE PRIEST IN CHARGE. I LIVE AT TWO AND SEVEN ADONIS CIRCLE HERE IN MCKINNEY. COUNCILMAN PHILLIPS. I HAVE READ THE RESTRICTED USES. UM WE ARE GRATEFUL FOR THOSE. I WANT TO RECOGNIZE MR CALIPHATE FOR WORKING UP THAT LIST OF RESTRICTED USES, UM HIS TIMELINE OF WHEN WE WERE NOTIFIED OF THE THINGS HE HAD DECIDED WITH CITY STAFF IS CORRECT. UM THE

[01:10:04]

UM, THE PICTURE IS 30. I WAS LITERALLY TRYING TO FIGHT PASTORAL CARE TO HOSPITALIZED PATIENTS WHO ENDED UP IN COVID ISOLATION HE FOUND OUT WHEN HE WOKE UP FROM SURGERY VIA TEXT MESSAGE AND CHECKING ON A KNITTING GROUP ACROSS THE STREET. AND TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT THIS LANGUAGE FROM THE PD MEANS. I DON'T KNOW WHY I COULDN'T HAVE HAD IT A WEEK OR TWO EARLIER. I DON'T DO THIS PROFESSIONALLY. UM IF THE CONCEPT PLAN WERE BEING ZONED WE WOULD NOT BE HAVING THIS LENGTHY CONVERSATION. I BELIEVE CITY STAFF OFFERED TO INCLUDE THE CONCEPT IN THE PD, AND WHERE DECLINED UM, I'VE HEARD MASSACHUSETTS CALIBER SAY THIS IS WHAT WILL BE BUILT OF ALSO HEARD HIM SAY IN THE SAME CONVERSATION. SOMEBODY ELSE COULD BUILD SOMETHING ENTIRELY DIFFERENT HERE. I THINK IT IS THAT SLIPPERINESS, UM, THAT IS CAUSING MUCH OF THE ANC'S TONIGHT. IF THERE ARE NO COMMERCIAL HERE, WE WOULDN'T BE HERE AT ALL. I GUESS IT JUST WOULD HAVE BEEN ME GIVING THE PRAYER. UM IF THE CONCEPT PLAN WHEREIN THE P D. I THINK WE WOULD HAVE HAD A DISAGREEMENT ABOUT THE HEIGHT. BUT THE CONCEPT PLAN WOULD SECURE SOME SENSE OF THE DIRECTNESS. AS IT IS THE LANGUAGE IN THE PD ABOUT THE FIRE LINE. I APPRECIATE IT'S UNCLEAR TO ME HOW THAT MAKES IT DIRECT JUST MAKES IT WIDE. OR WIDER. AND I'D LIKE THE CHANCE TO AT LEAST GET THAT CLARIFIED AND NAILED DOWN. I THINK IT'S ONE THING TO REZONE THIS PROPERTY FOR TOWN HOMES AND BUILD SOMETHING AND I RECOGNIZE THAT THAT IS ACTUALLY A MORE FAVORABLE ZONING, PROBABLY THAN THE EXISTING ONE. BUT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IT NAILED DOWN. UM, IF IT'S GOING TO HAVE A WEIRD, TINY COMMERCIAL PROPERTY IN A TERRIBLE SPOT IN THE MIDDLE OF IT, UM AND SO BE IT. BUT CAN WE AT LEAST SHRINK THE HEIGHT OF THE WEIRD, TINY, TERRIBLE THING? UM IT'S ANOTHER THING TO REZONE THIS BROADLY SO THAT IT CAN BE SOLD FROM MORE MONEY. I DON'T THINK THE CITY OWES ANYONE THAT OBVIOUSLY YOU CAN HEAR THE CHURCH'S FRUSTRATION WITH WITH IT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THAT'S ALL THE SPEAKERS THAT I HAVE, AS ANYBODY SIGNED UP, BUT HAD NOT A CHANCE HAS NOT HAD A CHANCE TO SPEAK. UM, SO I'LL TAKE A MOTION TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. IF I DO HAVE ONE I'LL MAKE THE MOTION WOULD CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. AND A MOTION AND A SECOND. PUBLIC HEARING IS CLOSED. QUESTIONS. COMMENTS.

OKAY START. COULD I ASK THE APPLICANT COME BACK UP. COME ON UP. I'M SURE HE WAS WANTING.

HE'S BEEN TAKING NOTES. YES, I WAS. NO I FEEL LIKE EVERYBODY IN THE ROOM. YES YOU DO HAVE BEEN HERE BEFORE AND YOU HAVE AND I WANTED TO CLEAR SOMETHING UP. THE LAST TIME YOU WERE HERE. I ASKED IF YOU COULD NOT MOVE THAT COMMERCIAL TO THE ACTUAL CORNER IN THAT V SECTION. AND YOU GAVE ME A VERY DETAILED AND GOOD EXPLANATION IS WHY THAT WAS NOTH INGRESS AND EGRESS IN THE CITY'S REQUIREMENTS, AND THAT'S WHY THAT CORNER COULD NOT BE USED AND WHY YOU CHOSE. WITH THE COMMERCIAL DOWN AT THE FAR RIGHT AS I LOOK AT THIS MOUNT AH! HE IS STILL WANT TO KEEP THAT THERE BECAUSE THANK YOU. PEACE SAID NO. I'LL ABANDON THE COMMERCIAL THAT WE APPROVE IT IN A MINUTE AND YOU CAN GO HOME. UH OR AS AN ALTERNATE. THERE WAS A SUGGESTION THAT YOU LIMIT THE HEART ON THAT POSITION. THAT PARTICULAR COMMERCIAL PIECE TO 25 FT. AND YOU'D ALREADY TOLD US THAT YOU WERE PROBABLY ONLY GONNA BUILD ONE STORY ANYWAY, SO I DON'T KNOW WHERE THE ACTUAL NUMBER THAT CAME IN. I THINK IT WAS 35 FT. MAXIMUM BUILDING HEIGHT, AND THAT COULD HAVE BEEN JUST WHAT WAS WITH THE STATUE. WOULD YOU BE OKAY WITH 25? WELL IF I IF I REMIND YOU CURRENTLY IN C 2 45 FT IS THE HEIGHT WHICH IS GREATER THAN THE SINGLE FAMILY. AND SO WE ARE. I GUESS MEETING IN THE MIDDLE BETWEEN WHAT THEY'RE ASKING AND WHAT WE PROPOSED INITIALLY WE DIDN'T

[01:15:02]

[01:20:07]

ON THIS COMMERCIAL PIECE. CAN YOU LIVE WITH 25 FT HIGH THOUGHT ON IT WITH THE RESTRICTIONS THAT I WENT THROUGH. AH OR LIVE WITHOUT IT ALTOGETHER BECAUSE I THINK THAT WOULD MAKE EVERYBODY MUST HAPPIEST AND I REALLY DON'T THINK YOU'RE GONNA MAKE THAT MUCH MONEY OFF OF IT COMPARED TO GLEE. COMMERCIAL PORTION. AND I KNOW IT'S NOT YOUR PROPERTY. YOU'RE THE ENGINEER AND EVERYBODY'S TREATING YOU LIKE IT'S YOUR PROPERTY, AND IT'S NOT . SO WHILE I'M IN, I AM IN PARTNERSHIP WITH OUR OWNER. SO IN WHEN I SPEAK I'M ACTUALLY SPEAKING FOR HIM AS WELL.

PREFERENCE IS NOT TO HAVE THE 25 FT. IT DOES ALLOW US A LITTLE BIT OF FLEXIBILITY. HOWEVER. IF THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WILL OBTAINING APPROVAL AND IN MAKING IT. TO WORK WITH THE CHURCH ON THAT ONE ISSUE. THEN I WILL AGREE TO THE 25. FT. CHARLIE HOW DOES HOW DOES THAT 10 EXTRA FEET AND WHAT I MEAN? IF YOU'RE DRIVING IN A CAR AND SOMETHING THAT'S 25 FT. WHAT IS IF IT'S ANOTHER 10? FT. IT'S NOT GOING TO BLOCK ANYTHING THAT ANYBODY FROM THE CHURCH SUGGESTED TO ME . THERE WAS THERE WAS TALKING TO COMMENTS ABOUT 35. FT WILL BLOCK THE VIEW OF OUR CHURCH. I'M NOT REALLY SURE HOW MEANINGFUL THAT IS, FROM WHATEVER VANTAGE POINT THAT WAS, BUT THAT WAS THE JUSTIFICATION FOR THE 25 FT. ANYTHING IS GOING TO BLOCK IT. I MEAN, THE CHURCH IS OVER 25 35 FROM 35 TO 25 FT. LIMIT YOU WITH THAT ONE STORY. RIGHT BUT YOU ALREADY SAID THAT WE'RE GOING TO BUILD ONE STORE AGAIN. MY QUESTION IS, IF YOU'RE INTENDING TO BUILD ONE STORY IS THERE REALLY A PURPOSE TO EXTEND IT TO 35 FT. IS THERE ANY WELL? GOOD, LIKE IF YOU BUILD IT. PUT ON TOP . THAT'S EXACTLY RIGHT. WHAT ARE THE THINGS ARCHITECTURALLY IS TYPICALLY A COMMERCIAL OR RETAIL USES A MAJORITY OF THE TIME YOU WILL HAVE A CONDITIONING UNITS ON TOP OF THE ROOF. AND WHAT THAT ADDITIONAL HEIGHT. THE LOUSE IS A PARAPET. JUST SCREEN THOSE OFF A LOT OF TIMES ON A SHORTER ROOF. YOU WOULD HAVE WHAT WOULD BE A LOUVERED. KIND OF WALL PUT AROUND UP THERE TO ALLOW AIRFLOW THROUGH THERE WITHOUT COMPARE WHICH CAN BE VISIBLE FROM THE STREET. SO THE PARAPET IS ARCHITECTURALLY ATTACHED TO THE FACADE. WHETHER IT'S THE SIDE OF THE REAR, AND THAT ALSO SERVES AS A SCREEN. OPPOSED TO SOME TYPE OF METAL LOUVER. COULD YOU COULD YOU DO IT WITH 30 FT. I WOULD AGREE TO 30 FT. WE HAVE COME DOWN FROM 45. RIGHT? I'M GONNA THROW ANOTHER WRENCH AT YOU ON THIS, UM I'VE TALKED TO A NUMBER OF MY FRIENDS. I'M 58 YEARS OLD AND YOU KNOW WE'RE FOCUSING ABOUT DOWNSIZING. BUT ONE OF THE THINGS THAT'S A DEAL BREAKER TO THE DOWNSIZING IS WHERE AM I GOING TO PUT MY STUFF? YOU KNOW, AND THAT'S PROBABLY WHY WE SEE ALL THESE STORAGE THINGS GOING UP HERE. IT IN AND I FULLY RESPECT THE DESIRE TO PROFIT OFF THIS AND I REALLY DO RESPECT THAT. BUT MIGHT THERE BE A THOUGHT TO SAY INSTEAD OF C TO USE HERE? THAT WE SIMPLY CREATE A SERIES OF STORAGE LOCKERS FOR THE FOLKS WHO OWNED THE TOWN HOMES AND MONETIZE THAT PIECE OF LAND THAT WAY IS THAT SOMETHING THAT YOU COULD CONSIDER ONLY AT AGE FOR ME NOW, BUT IT'S A POSSIBILITY BECAUSE I DO KNOW THAT PARKING BECAUSE OF PEOPLE USING THEIR GARAGES AND STORAGE. IS AN ISSUE NOT ONLY IN TOWN, HOME OR SINGLE FAMILY, BUT ALSO IN MULTI FAMILY SO THAT BECOMES AN ISSUE. RIGHT? COULD IT BE? IT'S POSSIBLE WHERE MAYBE JUST LIKE PEOPLE RENT COVERED PARKING SPACES. YOU KNOW ADDITIONAL WITH THEIR MONTHLY RENT FOR, SAY, A MULTI FAMILY. IT'S POSSIBLE. SO IF WE GOT THE FIRE LANE COVERED, WE GOT THE BUILDING HEIGHT DOWN TO 30. AND WE GOT THE RESTRICTED USES COVERED. THAT'S THE THREE THINGS THAT EVERYBODY WAS COMPLAINING ABOUT. SO THAT'S THERE WAS THERE WAS TALK ABOUT NOT BUILDING ANY MORE THERE. YOU KNOW THE WORD MULTI FAMILY WAS THROWN OUT INCORRECTLY. THERE WAS TALK ABOUT NOT BUILDING ANY MORE HOMES THERE BECAUSE OF SCHOOLS AND DENSITY. BUT LET ME MAKE THIS REMARK. WE GET BOATLOADS OF PRESSURE, AND I RESPECT THAT PRESSURE. IMMENSELY OF WE CAN'T FIND AFFORDABLE

[01:25:01]

THE LAND. THE PARTS AND THE LABOR. WRITE A TOWN HOME TAKES UP LESS LAND. THEN A SINGLE FAMILY HOME LIKE I LIVE ON WITH ALL THE YARD AND EVERYTHING LIKE THAT. I WOULD LOVE TO SEE MANY MORE TOWN HOMES ON WHAT WE CALL INFILL PROPERTIES HERE IN MCKINNEY, THIS IS AN INFILL PROPERTY IF YOU LOOK AT THIS WONKY PIECE OF LAND, THIS IS NOTHING THAT ANYONE REALLY SAYS.

OH, WHY WE'RE GONNA GET PLANNED WITH SHAPED LIKE THAT. NOBODY WANTS LAND WITH THE SHAPE LIKE THAT, RIGHT? WE DON'T YOU DON'T KNOW BUILDER DOES WITH THE ROADS COMING LIKE THIS? THIS IS INFILL, AND IF I CAN GET TOWN HOMES ON INFILL THAT PEOPLE CAN BUY AND HAVE A FOOTHOLD HERE IN MCKINNEY TO OWN A PIECE OF PROPERTY AND THEN YES, THEY'RE NOT GOING TO WANT TO LIVE THERE WITH A BUNCH OF KIDS. YES, THEY'RE GOING TO WANT TO SELL IT IN FIVE OR SIX YEARS AND YES, THEY WILL BE ABLE TO AFFORD SOMETHING ELSE. I LOVE THAT. SO I YOU KNOW, REVEREND, GET BEN KIRK. YOU SAID SOMETHING ABOUT THE SLIPPERINESS OF THIS AND I APPRECIATE THAT WORD, BECAUSE THAT'S A GREAT WORD HERE. I WANT THESE TOWN HOMES. I'D LOVE TO SEE THE LITTLE STORAGE PLACE WHERE THOSE PEOPLE CAN RENT IT. I RESPECT EVERYTHING THAT ST ANDREWS DOES IN THIS COMMUNITY.

I'M A FELLOW EPISCOPALIAN BY PRACTICE AND I KNOW Y'ALL DO A WHOLE BUNCH HERE IN MCKINNEY AND WE'RE LUCKY TO HAVE YOU SO I'D LIKE TO GET TO A POINT OF YES. I APPRECIATE EVERYTHING THAT'S HAPPENED HERE BEFORE, BUT I WANTED TO MAKE THE REMARK. THIS IS NOT MULTI FAMILY SINGLE FAMILY. BUT ONE MORE REMARK. I CAN'T STAND THESE THINGS WHEN WE SEE THEM AND THEY'RE THERE.

THEY'RE THERE FOR RENTAL WHEN THEY AREN'T INDIVIDUALLY PLANTED RIGHT WHERE YOU CAN'T EVER SELL THEM INDIVIDUALLY LIKE THIS. THIS ISN'T THAT THIS IS THE KIND OF THING AND DAVID, I'LL TALK TO YOU ABOUT THIS THAT I REALLY THINK MCKINNEY NEEDS MORE OF SO I WANT TO GET TO YES, ON THIS.

I'M JUST NOT SURE I'M THERE. ANYBODY ELSE? SO I'LL, UM. EVEN SIT DOWN. OKAY, THANKS. SURE. U, AND I TALKED WITH PEOPLE AND, UM I. I THINK IT'S A GOOD BUFFER BETWEEN THE MULTIFAMILY AND THE RESIDENTIAL AS PATRICK STATES THAT IT IS, IT'S A WONKY PIECE OF PROPERTY THAT MY THE BIGGEST THING IS THAT SOMETIMES I MEAN, IT HAS EXISTING ZONING ON IT. AND IT HAS HAD THAT FOR YEARS, APPARENTLY. AND IF SOMEBODY CAME IN AND BUILT JUST RANDOMLY BUILT WHAT THEY COULD BUILD RIGHT THERE. THEY WOULDN'T NEED TO COME THROUGH US. THEY WOULDN'T COME THROUGH YOU. THEY WOULDN'T . THEY WOULD NOT HAVE ANY AND THEY COULD TAKE THIS FIRE LENGTH . THEY COULD TAKE A FIRE LANE.

BRING IT OVER HERE AND BRING IT OUT THERE, AND THAT'S THE WAY YOU HAVE TO COME OUT. THEY COULD DO THAT. BUT WHAT WE HAVE SOMEBODY HERE WHO'S WILLING TO WORK IT WORK WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND THE AREA AND WITH THE COUNCIL AND THE CHURCH AND TRYING TO MEET THEIR CONCERNS. WHEN THEY DON'T REALLY HAVE TO. BUT BUT HE HAS, AND I THINK IT IN GOOD FAITH. AND WHILE UM AT FIRST I WAS NOT HMM . FOR THIS. I THINK IT'S A THINK IT'S THE BEST THING. WE'RE GOING TO GET ON THIS. I MEAN, THEY COULD PUT UP A BUNCH OF COMMERCIAL STUFF. AND IT'S KIND OF LIKE THERE WAS A GROUP OF NEIGHBORS THAT DIDN'T WANT THIS ONE THING GOING INTO THIS THING , AND THEY GRIPED AND COMPLAINED , AND THEY SIGNED THE PETITION AND GOT IT RESTRICTED. AND SO THE GUYS THAT FINE I JUST AND SO HE BUILT WHAT HE COULD, AND IT'S CLOSER TO THEIR HOUSE THAN THEY WANTED, AND THEY AND IT'S ALL THE THINGS THAT THEY DIDN'T WANT. BECAUSE HE COULD. HE WAS TRYING TO HELP AND BUILD SOMETHING THAT WAS MORE PLEASING. AND THE NEIGHBORHOODS NOW WISHES THAT THAT'S WHAT WAS BUILT INSTEAD OF THE STUFF THAT'S RIGHT NEXT TO THEIR BACKYARDS AND LOOKING DOWN IN THEIR BACKYARDS, AND SO THAT'S WHERE I THINK I AM. HERE IS THE FACT THAT THEY CAN BUILD. WHAT THEY WANT TO BUILD. YOU ARE ASSUMING THEY CAN BUILD SOMETHING THAT'S FAR WORSE. THEN WHAT? THEY'RE WHAT THEY'RE LOOKING AT. RIGHT HERE. THEY HAVE THAT OPTION. AND SO I THINK THE COMPROMISES THAT HE MADE THE FACT THAT YOU KNOW, I MEAN THE SHOT THE BUSINESSES THAT HE, UM HAVE THIS RESTRICTED, USES THE FIRE LANE. I MEAN, I. I DON'T

[01:30:04]

SLIPPERINESS COMES FROM THE FACT THAT WE'VE GOT THIS TINY SLIVER. IS THAT RIGHT? THAT WE'VE GOT THIS TINY SLIVER THAT YOU KNOW THERE, AND I BELIEVE DAVID. I TAKE HIM AT HIS WORD THAT THIS IS WHAT THEY WANT TO BUILD. I DON'T THINK WE'D BE SQUEEZING THIS THING IF IT WEREN'T BUT THEORETICALLY, I'M LOOKING TO GET RID OF THE SLIPPERINESS. ABSOLUTELY AND I THINK YOU ALL HAVE DONE A GREAT JOB OF ENCAPSULATING THE THINGS THAT WE'VE HEARD AS A STAFF AND FROM THE CHURCH AS WELL. UM AND ONE OF THE THINGS IS THE OPEN ENDEDNESS. IT COULD BE EITHER ALL COMMERCIAL OR ALL TOWN HOMES. AND I'M SPEAKING A BIT OUT OF TURN BECAUSE I HAVEN'T SPOKEN TO DAVID ABOUT THIS, BUT IT IS NOT UNCOMMON AND A PD ZONING TO DEVELOP SUB AREAS OF THAT ZONING THAT BETTER ALLOCATE WHERE CERTAIN USES GO. UM AND SO RIGHT NOW IT IS OPEN ENDED AND STAFF HAS COMFORTABLE WITH IT BEING OPEN ENDED. THIS IS A COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR CURRENTLY ALLOWS FOR COMMERCIAL USES ITS GOT A FAIRLY SIZABLE EASEMENT ON THE NORTH SIDE. WE ARE NOT UNCOMFORTABLE WITH THE IDEA OF THE ENTIRE TRACKED DEVELOPING AS COMMERCIAL. WE'RE ALSO NOT UNCOMFORTABLE WITH THE ENTIRE TRACK. DEVELOPING IS TOWN HOMES SINGLE FAMILY USES. BUT IF IT'S THE APPLICANTS DESIRE, AND IT HELPS TO ALLEVIATE CONCERNS, UM FOR THE CHURCH, THE P D CAN VERY WELL CREATE A SUB DISTRICT THAT IS FOR C TWO. AND ANOTHER SUBDISTRICT THAT BETTER DEFINES WHERE CERTAIN USES GO. UM, IF THAT IS THE DESIRE OF THE COUNCIL, IF THAT'S SOMETHING THAT'S AGREEABLE TO THE APPLICANT WE CAN HONE IN ON THAT A LITTLE BIT MORE SO THAT IT ISN'T THIS CONCERN THAT THE ENTIRE NINE PLUS ACRES IS COMMERCIAL. I DON'T KNOW IF THAT HITS AT YOUR HELP ME SIGNIFICANT COMMERCIAL NOW. IT'S COMMERCIAL IS I KNOW IT IS, BUT THERE'S NO ONE CLAMORING TO BUILD A BUNCH OF COMMERCIAL THERE. I KNOW IT'S COMMERCIAL BECAUSE IT'S SUCH A WONKY PIECE OF LAND. BUT BUT YOU KNOW, JUST FOR ME, AND Y'ALL MAY NOT AGREE, BUT I WOULD HAVE AN APPETITE TO SEE IF THAT CAN BE TIGHTENED UP A LITTLE BIT. BUT WHY? BECAUSE IT IS VERY OPEN ENDED. IF WE CAN REZONE IT TO BE PRIMARILY SINGLE FAMILY. I THINK THAT'S A HUGE WIN. HMM. THEN YOU START. YOU KNOW YOU. YOU'RE YOU'RE YOU KNOW, UM I DON'T KNOW. YOU'RE A LAND RIGHTS GUY.

I AM A LAND RIGHTS GUY. UM I YOU KNOW, REMEMBER THAT, UM THAT YOU WEREN'T HERE. I DON'T THINK SO.

FORGIVE ME, BUT THERE WAS AN E. T J APARTMENT BUILD. THAT WAS REAL SLIPPERY AND THE AND I GOT THE DISTINCT FEELING THAT THESE GUYS WERE TRYING TO GET THE ZONING FLIP TO SELL IT. I'M NOT GETTING THAT SENSE NOW. I'M REALLY NOT. BUT I DO RESPECT THE FOLKS FROM THE CHURCH THAT SAY YOU KNOW, WE'RE GONNA LIVE RIGHT BY THIS, EVEN IF THERE'S ONLY A 2% CHANCE OF IT BEING WHAT IT'S CURRENTLY ZONED RIGHT NOW OR SOMETHING DIFFERENT. I GET THAT. CONCERN AND IF IT'S SOMETHING COULD BE EASILY MITIGATED BY AGREEMENT. I'D LIKE TO SEE IF IT COULD BE MITIGATED. BUT I AGREE WITH YOU. I AM A LAND RIGHTS GUY, BUT I LOVE THESE TOWN HOMES AND I GET WHAT THEY'RE SAYING.

[01:35:09]

DO WHAT YOU SAY YOU'RE GONNA DO. PLEASE DO. OKAY JUST ONE MORE. ONE MORE ITEM IS ITEM NUMBER 2

[Consider/Discuss/Act on Appointing a Member to the McKinney Arts Commission (MAC)]

I'LL SAY OVER HERE FROM CHARLIE. I'LL SECOND. ALRIGHT. OKAY RICK FRANKLIN SECONDED. AND. THERE YOU GO. THANK YOU. DIDN'T PASSES. SO, UM. AT THE END OF REGULAR AGENDA AND PUBLIC

[CITIZEN COMMENTS ON MATTERS NOT ON THE AGENDA]

[01:40:03]

NO SKIN IN THE GAME NOW. UM MOTHERS WHO WORK HARD AND RAISE CHILDREN BY THEMSELVES. JUST BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE MONEY DON'T MEAN THEY DON'T HAVE SKIN IN A GANG. NOW WE THIS PARTICULAR ISSUE EVEN TONIGHT. I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW IT WAS GOING ON. BUT EVEN IN THAT LITTLE AREA IN WHICH I LIVE IN WHICH HAVE ALREADY EXPRESSED SOME OF THE DISCONTENT I HAVE THERE IS A MAJOR AREA WHERE SO MANY WRECKS OF SPEEDING, THERE'S RACING. YOU KNOW, THERE IS ILLEGAL ACTIVITY 24 7, SO TO INTRODUCE SOMETHING ON THAT CORNER, EVEN IT'S GOING TO BE ANOTHER PROBLEM. BUT UM, I JUST WANTED TO STATE THAT, UM HAVING SKIN IN THE GAME DON'T MEAN THAT JUST BECAUSE YOU DON'T HAVE A LOT OF MONEY. YOU DON'T HAVE THINGS TO SAY, UM WE STILL HAVE CHILDREN WE HAVE TO RAISE AND GRANDCHILDREN AND I'M VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE STATE OF MCKINNEY. ALSO I LIVE HERE. I'VE BEEN HERE FOR FIVE YEARS, SO TO NOT HAVE SKIN IN THE GAME. I STILL SEE SEGREGATED HOUSING, AND IT BOTHERS ME BECAUSE EVEN WITH ALL THE NEW RENTAL COMMUNITIES THAT ARE COMING ARE THEY DON'T EVEN ACCEPT THE HOUSING CHOICE VOUCHER. ARE THEY GOING TO EVEN GIVE US A CHANCE TO LIVE IN THESE NEIGHBORHOODS? AND THEN WE GOT A 216 UNITS SENIOR LIVING FACILITY THAT SHOULD BECOMING, ACCORDING TO COMMUNITY IMPACT. AH! ARE PEOPLE WITHOUT JUST GOING TO BE ABLE TO ACCESS THOSE PROPERTIES. I JUST DON'T LIKE LIVING IN THOSE CONGESTED AREAS. I DON'T LIKE LIVING ON TOP OF PEOPLE AROUND PEOPLE. I'M A LONER. BUT IT WAS ALL I COULD AFFORD. AT THE TIME.

I CAME FROM A FAMILY THAT HAD PROPERTY BUT I WENT RENT THE HOUSES, SO I'M JUST A COUNTRY GIRL, AND IT'S BOTHERING ME THAT MCKINNEY IS JUST SO SEGREGATED WHEN IT COMES TO HMM. VOUCHER PEOPLE, I WOULD SAY IT LIKE THAT . SO UM, I JUST WANTED TO REITERATE THAT I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST TERRIBLY DISTURBING WOKE UP OUT OF MY SLEEP WITH THAT NO SKIN IN THE GAME THING SEGREGATED HOUSING. JUST DON'T WORK FOR ME. SO IF WE COULD GET SOME MORE INPUT ON WHEN THESE PEOPLE COME IN HERE AND ALL THAT MONEY BE GOING OUT IN THE STATE OF TEXAS, OBVIOUSLY ADAM MCKINNEY, I DON'T KNOW WHAT KIND OF SKIN IN THE CANE MCKINNEY HAS. BUT ABOUT YOUR HOLDERS NEED MORE OPTIONS. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. DANIEL. I'LL COME UP AND LET YOU ENTER. INDUCE YOUR LAST NAME. TRY GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS DAN MEN. SHAW I'M A FRIEND OF CORE OF THE COMMITTEE ON RACIAL EQUITY SPONSORED BY TRINITY PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH IN MCKINNEY . I LIVE AT 28 OF 83 20 PARRISH AVENUE IN MCKINNEY 75071. OR COMMITTEE FEELS THAT IT'S TIME TO CARRY OUT OUR FAITH BY SPEAKING UP BY STEPPING FORWARD AND BY ADVOCATING FOR RACIAL EQUITY IN OUR COMMUNITY. OUR FIRST GOAL IS TO LISTEN TO ONE ANOTHER AND HELP THE UNHEARD AND MARGINALIZED WHEREVER WE CAN.

CORE BEGAN IN 2020 WITH A TWO PRONGED STRATEGY, THE FIRST INTERNAL TO OUR CONGREGATION IN THE SECOND EXTERNAL TO THE COMMUNITY. INTERNALLY WE HOST MONTHLY EVENTS TO ENHANCE THE ABILITY OF OUR CONGREGANTS TO ENGAGE IN THE DIFFICULT DISCUSSIONS AROUND RACISM INTO PURSUE THE CAPABILITY TO ABILITY TO BE OPEN TO NEW AND DIFFERENT POINTS OF VIEW. THE COMMUNITY STRATEGY HAS INITIATED A MINISTERIAL ALLIANCE OF PASTORS BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS FROM VARIOUS DENOMINATIONS IN EAST AND WEST MCKINNEY. CORE MEMBERS ARE ALSO PRIVILEGED, PRIVILEGED TO SIT ON STEERING COMMITTEES OF EAST HARVEST COOP AND FLOURISH. CORE IS NOT A POLITICAL GROUP.

HOWEVER WE WILL WORK AGAINST ANY ACTION THAT ATTEMPTS TO SET UP FOR SUSTAINED SYSTEMS THAT AWARD PRIVILEGED BASED ON HOW ONE LOOKS OR WHERE ONE LIVES. AS SUCH ATTENDANCE AT THE MCKINNEY CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS, THE COLLIN COUNTY COMMISSIONERS COURT TO CALL IN COLLEGE BOARD MEETINGS IN THE MCKINNEY ISD MEETINGS OR THE NEXT STEPS FOR OUR COMMITTEE. WE RECOGNIZE THAT OUR CITY OF MCKINNEY IS UNIQUE BY NATURE BEING THE ONLY ONE OF ITS KIND, UNLIKE ANYWHERE ELSE.

WE ALSO BELIEVE THAT CORA'S UNIQUE AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING TOWARDS A MORE EQUITABLE COMMUNITY FOR ALL OUR CITIZENS. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. NOW WE GET TO HIT YOU HEAR FROM DAN ONE MORE TIME. I'M COME ON UP, DAN. THIS IS JUST AN UPDATE. I DON'T WANT TO STEAL. AND THE THUNDER

[01:45:03]

CONTINUE WITH STORY TIME WITH GRANDPA DOC. AH! IT'S GOING VERY WELL. IT SADDENED ME, THOUGH.

HOW EXCITED THE KIDS WERE TO HEAR MY STORIES. YOU KNOW, I WAS TALKING TO THEM ABOUT. THE MOON LANDING. AND NOTING NONE OF THEM KNEW ABOUT THAT. AND THAT WE HAD LANDED ON THE MOON. 11 YOUNG WOMAN, YOUNG KIDS TO ME. WELL DO YOU THINK YOU COULD BE OUR TEACHER? WELL I AM. WE'RE READING STORIES AND I'M TEACHING YOU ABOUT THINGS. AND HE SAID NO AT SCHOOL. I SAID, WELL, I CAN'T GO INTO THE SCHOOL AND JUST TEACH. YOU HAVE TO BE CERTIFIED AND YOU HAVE TO BE APPROVED AND YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH TRAINING AND ALL THAT. SO THE ONE KID SAID, WELL, I'M GOING TO TALK TO THE PRINCIPAL AND SEE IF YOU CAN COME INTO THE SCHOOL. NOW. I KNOW I CAN GO INTO THE SCHOOLS TO ASSERT. TO A CERTAIN DEGREE. BUT THAT THAT'S HOW WHOLE ANOTHER THING THAT I DON'T WANT TO GET INTO. BUT IT WAS ENCOURAGING TO ME. TO SEE THEM. JUST QUESTIONING. WELL HOW DID THEY LAUNCH THE ROCKET FUEL? DOES IT GO ON? HOW LONG DID IT TAKE TO GET THERE? WHAT DID THEY DO WHEN THEY GOT THERE? WHY DID WE GO? AND THE FACT THAT THEY DIDN'T KNOW YOU KNOW WAS WAS COOL FOR ME BECAUSE I CAN FILL IN ALL THE BLANKS, BUT IT SAID THAT WE DON'T YOU KNOW, WE DON'T TALK ABOUT THAT KIND OF STUFF AND THE ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF ASTRONAUTS AND NASA AND ALL THAT , SO I'LL GIVE YOU ANOTHER UPDATE LATER ON AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS. I MEAN, IT'S FUN FOR ME SO I JUST TELL HIM STORIES THANK YOU DOWN TONIGHT, STAN. OKAY, THAT'S ALL OF OUR SPEAKERS. WE

[COUNCIL AND MANAGER COMMENTS]

[01:50:06]

BUT THEY TAX ON THE COUNTY LEVEL. THEY'RE NOT THE CITY. IF YOU HAVE THE COUNTY AND THE CITY IN MCKINNEY TOGETHER, YOU GET TO ABOUT 63 CENTS PER $100 OF APPRAISED VALUE. THAT'S ABOUT WHERE WE ARE NOW. JACKSON THEY PAY 83 CENTS. 20 CENTS MORE THAN WE ARE FURTHER IN JACKSON IN 2014. THEY STARTED A ONE CENT SALES TAX TO FUND WATER. $42 MILLION HAS GONE INTO THAT. ONE OF THE PROBLEMS IN JACKSON IS THEY DIDN'T CHANGE THE FILTERS. THAT'S A STAFF PROBLEM. THAT'S A COMPETENCE ISSUE. THAT IS A DO YOUR JOB ISSUE SO I KNOW IT'S AN EXTREME EXAMPLE. AND I READ ABOUT BUT ABOUT A BUNCH OF OTHERS THAT REALLY STRUCK ME AS TO WHAT A GREAT JOB OUR CITY STAFF DOES TO KEEP THIS GREAT CITY. THAT'S ALL I HAVE. MR MAYOR PRO TEM. THANK YOU. THAT'S A WOMAN FELT AS MANY OF YOU KNOW, MAY KNOW HAS, UM, HAS BEEN PORTRAYED AND SOCIAL MEDIA AND ON EARTH NEWS AND LOCAL NEWSPAPERS. THERE WAS A VANDALISM AT THE STONE BRIDGE UNITED METHODIST CHURCH LAST WEEK AND THIS VANDALISM OCCURRED ON THE HEELS OF A SERMON THAT WAS BEING PLANNED TO TALK ABOUT ISSUES SURROUNDING RACIAL EQUITY . SO IT APPEARS THAT THIS TARGET ATTACK MIGHT HAVE A MUCH DEEPER MEANING PURPOSE AND WHAT MIGHT APPEAR ON THE SURFACE. I WAS TAKING A MUCH NEEDED VACATION AT THE TIME WHEN I HEARD ABOUT THIS, AND FRANKLY, I WAS JUST ANGRY WHEN I HEARD I WAS ANGRY. AND I AM SORRY FOR THE MEMBERS OF THAT CHURCH THAT HAVE HAD TO ENDURE WHAT HAS HAPPENED THERE. UM. I'M ANGRY THAT THIS HAPPENED IN OUR CITY IN A PLACE THAT I SERVE AND THAT I LOVE BUT I'M NOT SURPRISED. AND IF YOU ARE, THEN I NEED YOU TO WAKE UP. WE NEED TO WAKE UP BECAUSE THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT IS JUST A VERY RARE UNUSUAL OCCURRENCE.

THIS MAY HAPPEN MUCH MORE. THEN WHAT YOU THINK IT DOES? AND SO WE NEED TO BE PAYING ATTENTION, BECAUSE IF WE DON'T MCKINNEY COULD POTENTIALLY BE THE NEXT BUFFALO, NEW YORK. JUST A FEW SHORT WEEKS AGO, WE HAD A POWERFUL TESTIMONY HERE BY ROBIN BROWN, WHO'S A NEW RESIDENT OF MCKINNEY. SHE WAS CALLED THE N WORD ON TWO DIFFERENT OCCASIONS ONCE WHILE DRIVE WHILE JOGGING IN HER NEIGHBORHOOD. AND THEN ANOTHER TIME WHILE ATTENDING 1/4 OF JULY EVENT, AND I WANT TO

[01:55:06]

THIS QUOTE CONTINUES TO HAVE SUCH A RELEVANT MEANING CURRENT EVENTS. BUT I LOVE THIS QUOTE.

IT REMINDS ME THAT WE HAVE SO MANY WONDERFUL PEOPLE FROM ALL WALKS OF LIFE. THAT HAVE FOR MANY GENERATIONS MADE THE CITY WHAT IT IS TODAY AND WILL CONTINUE TO WORK TO MAKE IT BETTER. WE ARE NOT VICTIMS. WE ARE NOT INTIMIDATED BY THESE COWARDS, AND WE REFUSE TO BE DISTRACTED. FOR MAKING FORWARD PROGRESS BECAUSE THIS IS OUR CITY, TOO. SO WHAT ARE WE DOING ABOUT THIS? THERE IS CURRENTLY AN ONGOING INVESTIGATION BEING HANDLED BY THE KIDNEY POLICE DEPARTMENT. THEY ARE DOING A PHENOMENAL JOB. I HAVE EVERY FAITH IN THEM THAT THEY WILL SOLVE THIS. THIS ISSUE. UM AND THERE WILL BE AWARDED A REWARD GIVEN TO ANYONE WHO HAS INFORMATION THAT COULD LEAD TO THE ARREST OF THE PERPETRATOR. THERE ARE ALSO ONGOING CONVERSATIONS WITH THE COMMUNITY LEADERS ON HOW TO BEST ADDRESS THESE ISSUES AND FAITH BASED SETTINGS IN ADDITION TO COMMUNITY SETTINGS. THERE'S AN ENTIRE GROUP WHO IS WORKING TO LAUNCH A CAMPAIGN TO INCREASE AWARENESS AND PRESENTED A UNITED MESSAGE THAT MCKINNEY WILL NOT TOLERATE RACISM. HOW CAN YOU HELP? CAN CONTRIBUTE TO THE REWARD THROUGH THE CRIME STOPPERS. YOU ACTUALLY CAN DO THAT OUR MAYOR HAS PUT UP SOME OF HIS OWN MONEY TO GET IT STARTED. YOU CAN HELP BY CALLING CRIME STOPPERS AT 214. 373847. EVEN A SMALL DONATION CAN ADD UP AND MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE. ALSO ONCE THIS CAMPAIGN HAS BEEN LAUNCHED, JOIN IT POSTED. TALK ABOUT IT WITH YOUR FRIENDS WITH YOUR FAMILY WITH YOUR CHILDREN. AND IF YOU HAVE SUGGESTIONS ABOUT HOW TO MAKE A POSITIVE IMPACT, PLEASE EMAIL YOUR COUNCIL MEMBER. MY EMAIL ADDRESS IS G FELT ASSESS G F E L TO US AT MCKINNEY, TEXAS .ORG. AND THESE ARE SOME JUST GREAT PLACES TO START OUR COMMITMENT. IS TO YOU TO YOU ALL IS TO CONTINUE TO WORK TOWARDS A BETTER SOLUTION.

THANK YOU. CHARLIE, WHAT DO YOU GOT? I'VE GOT A DIFFERENT KIND OF TEAM FROM MCKINNEY HIGH SCHOOL, AND THEY ARE THE JUNIOR MARINES ROTC WHO WENT TO A COMPETITION AMONG SEVEN SCHOOLS IN THE AREA THAT SUMMER AT AZLE, TEXAS, AND THE 18 YOUNG PEOPLE FROM MCKINNEY HIGH SCHOOL MARINES, JUNIOR ROTC CAME BACK WITH TOP HONORS, SO THERE. YOU GOT 18 REASONS TO BE EXTREMELY PROUD THAT YOU'RE FROM MCKINNEY , TEXAS, AND THEY'RE ALL OUT AT MCKINLEY HIGH SCHOOL AND THEY'LL

[02:00:01]

THANK YOU. GREAT. OKAY WELL, AS YOU KNOW, THE FIRST OF ALL I WANTED TO THANK COUNCIL, INCLUDING A SPECIFICALLY FOR KIND COMMENTS, BUT ALL OF THE CITY COUNCIL FOR YOUR CONTINUED SUPPORT THROUGH THE BUDGET PROCESS. I PASSED ON THE COMMENTS TO OUR STAFF. OF COURSE THEY DO WORK VERY HARD AT THIS. WE TRY TO CREW. WE TRY TO CREATE BORING BUDGET ADOPTION EVENINGS LIKE TONIGHT. THAT'S EXCITING FOR US BECAUSE IT TELLS US THAT THE SYSTEMIC APPROACH THAT WE TAKE TO BUDGET MAKING IS ACTUALLY WORKING. IT SHOULD TURN OUT TO BE AN, UM, KIND OF A SLEEPER IN TERMS OF, UM, BECAUSE THERE'S NO SURPRISES AND WE DO GIVE PLENTY OF OPPORTUNITY FOR THE PUBLIC TO COMMENT AND COUNCIL MEMBERS TO WEIGH IN. AND WE'LL KEEP DOING THAT WILL, OF COURSE, TRY TO IMPROVE AND TWEAK IT WHERE WE CAN. SO THANK YOU FOR THAT. AND ALSO TONIGHT, MAYOR PRO TIM ROGERS READ A PROCLAMATION. I JUST WILL REITERATE THE CITY IS CELEBRATING NATIONAL PREPAREDNESS MONTH BY ENCOURAGING RESIDENTS TO PREPARE THEIR HOME BUSINESS AND COMMUNITY FOR ANY TYPE OF EMERGENCY HELP MCKINNEY FAMILIES PREPARE THE OFFICE OF EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT IS PROVIDING 500 FREE PREPAREDNESS BAGS FOR FAMILIES TO PICK UP AT THE CITY'S TWO LIBRARIES DURING THE MONTH OF SEPTEMBER. THESE BAGS INCLUDE ITEMS SUCH AS ICE SCRAPERS, RAIN GAUGES AND BOOKS WITH PREPAREDNESS INFORMATION ALSO KEEP AN EYE OUT ON THE CITY'S SOCIAL MEDIA CHANNELS FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON HOW TO PREPARE FOR EMERGENCIES, AND THAT'S ALL I HAVE, SIR. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. SO I'LL FINISH UP. WE EXCUSE THE MAYOR TONIGHT AS HE IS ON A MUCH NEEDED VACATION, SO, BUT I TALKED TO HIM EARLIER TODAY, AND HE'S SICK AS A HORSE, AND HE WAS THROWING UP WHILE I WAS TALKING TO HIM.

AND I'M JUST LIKE, OH, MAN, NO REST FOR THE WEARY. UM BUT IN SPEAKING OF THE MAYOR, I WAS I WAS ON VACATION. LAST WEEK. I WAS IN FLORIDA AND I GET I GET A TEXT AND THEN A CALL FROM A SITUATION THAT HAD KIND OF HAPPENED IN THIS IN THE AREA DOWNTOWN. WHERE, UM A FIRE MARSHAL TO COME IN AND FOUND SOME ISSUES AND BASICALLY SHUT DOWN A SMALL. GROUP OF ARTISTS AND WHO MAKE THEIR MONEY DOING THIS, AND IT WAS A REALLY A BAD THING, AND THEY WERE SCRAMBLING ON WHAT TO DO. AND SO I CONTACTED THE MAYOR AND, UM AND HE'S HE, IN FACT, HERE WAS ALREADY ON IT. AND, UM AND THE LONGER THE SHORT OF IT IS FOUR HOURS LATER, EVERYTHING WAS RESOLVED. THE MAYOR HAD EVEN SENT SOME ELECTRICIANS OVER AND DOING SOME STUFF. AND NEEDLESS TO SAY, THE BUSINESS WAS NOT SHUT DOWN. WE WORKED OUT A COMPROMISE AND GETTING SOME THINGS DONE AND IT JUST IT. PEOPLE HAVE NO IDEA HOW GOOD A MAYOR WE HAVE. THEY REALLY DON'T . THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND THE HOURS THAT HE PUTS IN THE PERSONAL STUFF THAT HE DOES THE MONEY THAT HE SPENDS, UM HE IS LIKE I SAY, IF YOU FOLLOW HIM, YOU'RE A FOOL TO RUN FOR MAYOR BECAUSE HE IS SO HE IS THAT GOOD. HE IS, UM HE'S MADE IT A FULL TIME JOB ALMOST AND. AND SO I'M JUST GOING TO SAY THANK YOU TO OUR GOOD MAYOR. IS HE REPRESENTS MCKINNEY. UH, FANTASTICALLY. SO THAT'S ALL I HAVE TO SAY TONIGHT. DO WE HAVE A MOTION TO ADJOURNED AND SO MOVED. EMOTION SECOND NOW CHARLIE'S OKAY. ALL IN FAVOR. I KNOW IS THAT YES, BOYS, ANYONE? THAT'S RIGHT
