WHY I'M MCKINNEY AIRPORT. THERE WAS A STUDY DONE. IT SHOWED TO BE BECAUSE IT NEEDED TO BE A RELIEVER AIRPORT. WITH 12 TO 18 FLIGHTS. THAT'S LESS THAN 2% OF THE TOTAL. FLIGHTS OUT OF DFW AND LOVE FIELD, SO THAT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE MUCH OF A RELIEVER. OR IS IT BECAUSE OF THE FUZZY MATH THAT WAS DONE THAT SAID. UM 75% OF THE SURVEY RESPONDENTS WOULD CONSIDER TK I EVEN IF THEIR PREFERRED CARRIER DID NOT SERVE IT, THAT SOUNDS PRETTY HIGH.
THAT 75% NUMBER WHERE DID THAT COME FROM? WELL IN THE IN THE CHART. IT IS A COMBINATION OF SOME CHANCE. HIGH CHANCE AND THE WILL. COMBINED TO MAKE AN AVERAGE OF 75% SO THE ACTUAL WILL IS ONLY 13% OF THAT OF THE 302 PEOPLE THAT WERE ACTUALLY SURVEYED. AND THEN THE. THIRD THING IS JUST SEEN ABOUT. THE SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS ON YOUR CAPTURE RAIDS, WHICH IS BASICALLY THE NUMBER OF PASSENGERS AND THAT WOULD, UM THERE'S FIVE SCENARIOS THAT WERE LABELED VERY LOW, LOW MEDIUM HIGH AND VERY HIGH. AND SO HOW DID THEY DETERMINE WHICH ONE THEY USE? AND IT WAS JUST USED, FOR EXAMPLE, BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT THE SURVEY SAYS IN THE MEETING SCENARIO, FOR EXAMPLE. THE ESTIMATED TOTAL IN PLAIN MINTS ARE AND THEN IT GOES ON TO SAY THOSE NUMBERS, SO THAT WAS JUST PULLED OUT OF BASICALLY LIKE PIN THE TAIL ON THE DONKEY AND STUCK IN THERE BECAUSE IT'S THE MIDDLE ONE NOT BEHIND, NOT THE LOW, THE MIDDLE ONE. THE AND THEN ALSO, I WANTED TO ALSO CORRECT THE RECORD FROM A PREVIOUS SPEECH. THERE ARE COMMENT THAT I GAVE
[00:10:06]
THAT TALKED ABOUT THE RUNWAY NOT BEING COMPLETED, AND I THINK THE COMMENTS AFTERWARDS WERE UM, VERY DISPARAGING, SAYING BECAUSE I JUST MISSPOKE. I DIDN'T MEAN THAT THEY HAD THE RUNWAY HADN'T BEEN STARTED. I SAID THE RUNWAY I MEANT THE RUNWAY HADN'T BEEN COMPLETED THE EXTENSIONS BECAUSE IT'S BEEN TALKED ABOUT THE RUNWAY IS 8500 FT. AND IT'S ONLY 7000 SO UM AND SO YOU'RE JUST WORKING ON THOSE NOW, SO THAT'S REALLY WHAT I MEANT BY THAT, BUT THEN THERE WAS SOME PRETTY PRETTY UGLY REMARKS ME TO ME ABOUT THE COMMENT ABOUT BEING A LIAR AND USING MISINFORMATION AND JUST, UM WHAT WAS IT NON MADE UP? NONSENSE RIDICULOUS LIES AND MADE UP. NONSENSE I THINK WAS COMMENT THAT WAS USED AGAINST ME. UM AND THEN ALSO JUST BECAUSE THE ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENTS WON'T BE DONE UNTIL WELL AFTER THE ELECTION. I MEAN, IT JUST SEEMS JUST WANTED TO GET THAT ON RECORD TO SAY THAT PEOPLE ARE GOING TO VOTE. THEY SHOULD VOTE NO AND WAIT FOR THINGS TO ACTUALLY GET ALL LAID OUT BEFORE THEY THEY HAVE A PRETTY INFORMED VOTE AND NOT ALL THIS FUZZY MATH. THANKS JUST JUST FOR THE RECORD, UM YOU SAY THAT THAT COMMENT WAS MADE? CERTAINLY NOBODY FROM THIS DIOCESE MADE THAT COMMENT TO YOU. YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT SOMEBODY IN THE PUBLIC. REALLY OKAY. WELL, I ENCOURAGE EVERYONE TO GO BACK AND LOOK AT IT BECAUSE I CERTAINLY WOULD NEVER SAY, HMM. YEAH IT'S CERTAINLY YOU MIGHT BE REFERRING TO JUST SPEAKING ABOUT MISINFORMATION IN GENERAL CERTAINLY NEVER ATTACKED YOUR COMMENT AND I ENCOURAGE YOU TO GO BACK AND WATCH THE VIDEO AND CLARIFY THAT HADN'T BEEN STARTED AND I MEANT BECAUSE I WAS NERVOUS, NOT UNDERSTAND, BUT THERE'S NO COMMENT I MADE AFTER YOUR COMMENTS. I'LL TELL YOU WHAT. WE'LL WATCH THE VIDEO AND YOU CAN APOLOGIZE FOR YOUR MISTAKE ON THE NEXT MEETING IS, I GUESS IS WHAT WILL HAPPEN. JOSEPH ROYBAL. GOOD EVENING. I GOT A FEW MINUTES HERE.

PLUS I THINK IT'S A QUIET ZONE BECAUSE I'M RIGHT ACROSS THE SCHOOL FROM GLEN OAKS. SO YOU KNOW, I THINK THERE'S A BALANCE HERE. I JUST REALLY DON'T KNOW. I DON'T HAVE ANY ANSWERS FROM ANYBODY. SO YOU KNOW, IF YOU HAVE DOGS, THEIR PTSD THEY DON'T EAT AND IT'S MORE THAN JUST DOGS, JUST LITTLE KIDS. AND I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHEN THIS THING ENDS, SO I KNOW I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE. THAT'S BOTHERED BY IT, BUT IT'S LIKE THE FOURTH OF JULY EVERY NIGHT, SO THAT'S MY PIECE. I DON'T KNOW. THAT'S YOU GUYS HAVE NO CLUE. I THINK THAT'S NEWS TO EVERYONE UP HERE WILL CERTAINLY LOOK INTO IT. I'M JUST LOOKING FOR ANSWERS BECAUSE THERE WAS AN EAGER PROBLEM. HEARD ABOUT THE PROBLEM.

IT TAKES A LOT TO DO WHAT YOU ALL ARE THINKING ABOUT DOING. AND IF WE DON'T GET IT, RIGHT? THIS IS GOING TO BE A STAIN ON US THAT WILL NOT EASILY BE WASHED AWAY. A STAIN FROM THE STANDPOINT THAT THERE IS A GROUP OF PEOPLE WHO DON'T WANT IT. GROUP OF PEOPLE THAT WANT IT. THERE'S NOT TOO MANY PEOPLE IN THE MIDDLE.
