[CALL TO ORDER] [00:00:08] GO. 631 WELCOME TO THE CITY OF MCKINNEY CITY COUNCIL MEETING. IT'S TUESDAY, OCTOBER THE 20TH. WE APOLOGIZE FOR THE DELAYED START. WE HAD ONE, TWO, TWO OTHER MEETINGS, THREE OTHER MEETINGS BEFORE THIS ONE. SO WE WILL TRY TO GET CAUGHT UP. OUR FIRST ORDER OF BUSINESS IS OUR PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE. SO IF YOU WILL, PLEASE JOIN US. I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND TO THE REPUBLIC FOR WHICH IT STANDS ONE NATION UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL. OKAY, OUR FIRST RECOGNITION THIS EVENING [26-1003 Recognition of the 75th Anniversary of the North Texas Municipal Water District] IS HONORING THE 75TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE NORTH TEXAS MUNICIPAL WATER DISTRICT. GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL MEMBERS. I'M GERALD KEEVER, AND I'M JOINING DON PASCAL HERE. IT'S OUR PLEASURE TO SERVE AS MCKINNEY'S APPOINTED DIRECTORS ON THE NORTH TEXAS MUNICIPAL WATER DISTRICT BOARD. THIS YEAR, THE DISTRICT CELEBRATES ITS 75TH ANNIVERSARY. AND AT THE HEART OF THIS MILESTONE IS A SPIRIT OF UNITY AND SHARED PURPOSE, CAPTURED IN THREE SIMPLE WORDS ALL IN TOGETHER. 75 YEARS AGO, SOME THOUGHT LEADERS ACROSS MULTIPLE CITIES IN OUR REGION. WHEN THEY THOUGHT ABOUT WATER, THEY THOUGHT AT LEAST TWO THINGS. NUMBER ONE, THEIR WATER LEVELS. WELL, WATER LEVELS WERE LOW AND INSUFFICIENT TO MEET DEMAND. AND SECONDLY, THEY REALIZED THAT IN ORDER TO SATISFY DEMAND, THEY COULDN'T WORK ALONE. THEY HAD TO WORK TOGETHER. SO THE DISTRICT WAS FORMED. AND IN MCKINNEY, TEXAS, IN 1951, WAS THE FIRST AT THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE BUILDING. HERE WAS THE FIRST MEETING OF THE NORTH TEXAS MUNICIPAL WATER DISTRICT. AND SO THE SPIRIT OF COOPERATION THAT WAS IN THE ROOM AT THAT POINT IN TIME CONTINUES TODAY THROUGH THE PARTNERSHIP OF THE NORTH TEXAS MUNICIPAL WATER DISTRICT AND 13 MEMBER CITIES. AND TODAY WE SERVE 2.4 MILLION FOLKS ACROSS 80 DIFFERENT COMMUNITIES. YOU'LL FIND SOMETHING THAT LOOKS LIKE THIS AT YOUR SEAT. IT'S A LITTLE DOCUMENT THAT SPELLS OUT SOME NOTEWORTHY FACTS ABOUT MCKINNEY AND THE DISTRICT GOING BACK SEVERAL YEARS AGO, AND THEN A HISTORY OF THE DISTRICT AS AS WELL. AND WHAT YOU'LL NOTICE, ESPECIALLY IF YOU READ THE FIRST PAGE, IS THAT SINCE THE 1940S, MEMBER LEADERSHIP IN OUR COMMUNITY HAS RECOGNIZED THE IMPORTANCE OF WATER TO OUR CITY, AND THEY'VE LET OUT AND WORKED REGIONALLY TO SECURE, TREAT AND DELIVER WATER TO OUR CITY. NOW, OVER THE DECADES, MCKINNEY AND THE DISTRICT HAVE GROWN. AND IN FACT, BACK IN THAT 1951 ERA, WE DELIVERED WATER TO ROUGHLY 11,000 PEOPLE. THAT WAS OUR POPULATION IN 1951. AND OF COURSE, WE NOT ONLY DELIVER WATER, BUT WE DELIVER WASTEWATER AND SOLID WASTE SERVICES NOW TO OVER 230,000 RESIDENTS TODAY. BUT OUR PARTNERSHIP STILL REFLECTS THE STRENGTH OF WORKING TOGETHER. AND SO WE WANT TO THANK THE COUNCIL AND CITY STAFF FOR YOUR CONTINUED COLLABORATION AND THE TRUST THAT YOU PLACE IN US. AND I KNOW YOU KNOW THIS. TOGETHER, WE CARRY FORWARD A RESPONSIBILITY TO SERVE OUR COMMUNITIES TODAY AND PREPARE FOR THOSE WHO WILL FOLLOW. SO WE'D LIKE TO SHARE A SHORT VIDEO COMMEMORATING THIS ANNIVERSARY AND CELEBRATING THE SPIRIT OF COOPERATION AND UNITY THAT SHAPED OUR LEGACY. SO, MISS PARCHMAN, SHE'S GOT IT TEED UP. HERE WE GO. STARTED WHEN OUR ORIGINAL MEMBER CITIES CAME TOGETHER AND ASKED THE STATE LEGISLATURE TO FORM NORTH TEXAS MUNICIPAL WATER DISTRICT TO MEET THEIR WATER NEEDS OF THE FUTURE. THEY WERE ALL ON GROUNDWATER, AND THEY KNEW THOSE GROUNDWATER SUPPLIES WERE NOT GOING TO MEET THEIR NEEDS LONG TERM. THE CORPS OF ENGINEERS HAD A PROJECT UNDERWAY TO CONSTRUCT LAVON LAKE, AND THERE WAS AN OPPORTUNITY TO TRANSITION TO SURFACE WATER. OVER THE DECADES, THERE WAS THE EXPANSION, AT THE REQUEST OF OUR MEMBER CITIES, TO INCLUDE WASTEWATER SERVICES AND SUBSEQUENTLY SOLID WASTE SERVICES. I REALLY APPRECIATE THE FORESIGHT THAT THE CITY LEADERS IN THE 1940S HAD THAT ULTIMATELY RESULTED IN OUR OPERATION, AND I AM JUST AMAZED AT THE GROWTH IN OUR REGION THAT IS POSSIBLE AND HAS OCCURRED AS A RESULT OF THAT FORESIGHT. WE HAVE 75,000 PEOPLE MOVING INTO OUR SERVICE AREA EVERY SINGLE YEAR. AND AS WE LIKE TO SAY, THEY'RE NOT BRINGING WATER WITH THEM. AND SO IT'S IMPORTANT FOR US TO STAY AHEAD OF ALL OF THAT AND CONTRIBUTE TO THE POPULATION GROWTH THAT'S COMING. WHEN WE BEGAN DELIVERING SERVICE IN [00:05:03] 1956 AFTER BEING FORMED IN 51, WE SERVED 32,000 PEOPLE. SINCE THAT TIME, WE HAVE DOUBLED OUR SERVICE POPULATION MORE THAN SIX TIMES. AND WHEN WE LOOK TO THE FUTURE, WE'RE AGAIN PLANNING TO DOUBLE IN OUR PLANNING HORIZON. WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THINGS THAT WERE MENTIONED OR ON THE BOARD LONG BEFORE I WAS EVEN BORN. NOW WE'RE PLANNING FOR THINGS 25, 30, 50 YEARS OUT THAT I HOPE THAT LEGACY WILL BE HERE AND PEOPLE WILL FILL OUR SHOES AS ALL DIRECTORS WITH THE SAME MINDSET AS WE MOVE FORWARD. WE ARE A REALLY COLLABORATIVE GROUP THAT WANTS EACH OTHER TO SUCCEED, AND THROUGH THAT WE ARE ABLE TO PROVIDE HIGH QUALITY SERVICES. I'M ALSO REALLY PROUD AT THE RECOGNITION THAT WE HAVE ACROSS OUR VARIOUS INDUSTRIES, BOTH IN THE STATE AND NATIONALLY, AND HOW THEY VIEW OUR ORGANIZATION. THE WORK FOR AN ORGANIZATION LIKE THIS THAT'S BEEN AROUND FOR 75 YEARS, TO SEE WHERE IT STARTED, TO SEE WHERE WE'RE AT AND TO SEE WHERE WE'RE GOING. IT'S AWESOME. HOW HAVE WE BEEN ABLE TO KEEP UP A LOT OF PLANNING AND INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS AND EXPANSIONS? YOU CAN SEE FROM 1956 ALL THE WAY THROUGH 2026, SOME OF THOSE CHANGES AND JUST TREATMENT TECHNOLOGIES, STAFFING PROGRESS, JUST THE SYSTEMS WE HAVE IN PLACE. WE'RE NOT TRYING TO KEEP UP WITH THE INDUSTRY. WE ARE STILL DOING OUR OWN REVOLUTIONARY PROCESS IN A WAY THAT KEEPS US ABOVE THE STANDARD. I DON'T REPRESENT MUSKEGON. I REPRESENT NORTH TEXAS WITH THE BENEFIT OF MESQUITE. THAT IS WHAT MAKES THIS BOARD HAPPEN. AS PART OF THE DISTRICT'S LEGACY, WE ENDURE, WE INNOVATE AND WE ADAPT AND ARE THERE FOR THE REGION FROM THE BEGINNING, THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE SAID. WE'RE ALL IN TOGETHER, ALL IN TOGETHER FOR INNOVATION, ALL IN TOGETHER FOR OUR COMMITMENT TO SAFETY, ALL IN TOGETHER FOR OUR REGIONAL PARTNERSHIP, ALL IN TOGETHER FOR MY COMMUNITY, ALL IN TOGETHER FOR ONE WATER, ALL IN TOGETHER FOR HIGH QUALITY SERVICES, ALL IN TOGETHER FOR OUR DISTRICT FAMILY, ALL IN TOGETHER WITH THE 2.3 MILLION PEOPLE THAT WE SERVE. I'M EXCITED ABOUT THE PEOPLE OF TODAY MEETING THE NEEDS FOR THE PEOPLE OF TOMORROW, AND CONTINUING THAT LEGACY OF SERVICE. AREN'T YOU GLAD WE DIDN'T BRING ALL THOSE PEOPLE WITH US SO THAT THEY COULD ALL MAKE A SPEECH? IT WOULD HAVE BEEN LONGER THAN GERALD AND I WILL BE, I ASSURE YOU. IT'S NICE TO BE HERE TONIGHT. THE AS GERALDINE MENTIONED, THE ANNIVERSARY THEME, ALL IN TOGETHER. THAT MEANS SOMETHING. AS YOU HEARD FROM VARIOUS MEMBERS OF THE BOARD STAFF. ET CETERA. THAT CONCEPT CAPTURES WHAT IT TAKES AND WHAT IT MAKES, WHAT MAKES THE PARTNERSHIP THAT THE RESPECTIVE CITIES HAVE WITH NORTH TEXAS MUNICIPAL WATER DISTRICT. IT TAKES ALL THE CITY'S COMMITMENT, THE STAFF DEDICATION, AND A SHARED VISION TO PROVIDE THE ESSENTIAL SERVICES OUR COMMUNITIES RELY UPON JUST TO FUNCTION EVERY DAY. I DON'T KNOW THAT THERE'S ANY COMMODITY THAT'S MORE VALUABLE TODAY THAN WATER, AND WE DO EVERYTHING WE CAN TO MAKE SURE WE'VE GOT ENOUGH OF IT FOR THE FUTURE. MAYOR COX, MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL, I JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT ON BEHALF OF THE NORTH TEXAS MUNICIPAL WATER DISTRICT, WE ARE PLEASED TO PRESENT THIS GLASS WATER DROP SCULPTURE. PUBLIC CAN SEE IT. THEY CAN WALK UP AND SEE IT LATER. AND I KNOW THAT IN THIS NICE NEW CITY HALL, YOU'LL HAVE A NICE PLACE OF HONOR FOR IT TO GO. WE'RE PLEASED TO PRESENT THIS TO YOU ALL TONIGHT TO THE CITY OF MCKINNEY. I'M PLEASED TO SAY MY ADOPTED HOMETOWN. THAT IS HAS BEEN A STRONG MEMBER OF THE DISTRICT EVER SINCE IT STARTED. THIS AWARD COMMEMORATES THE DISTRICT'S 75TH ANNIVERSARY. THIS WATER DROP SHAPE SYMBOLIZES THE VITAL RESOURCE OF WATER THAT BROUGHT ALL THE COMMUNITIES TOGETHER IN THE 50S, SO THAT WE COULD HAVE WATER TODAY. AND THE 2000, AND THAT WILL CONTINUE IN THE FUTURE, WE BELIEVE, AND WE HOPE. MAYOR, I WOULD LIKE FOR YOU AND THE REST AND THE MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL TO COME DOWN. I'D LIKE TO MAKE THE PRESENTATION TO YOU, BUT IF ALL THE COUNCIL WOULD LIKE TO BE HERE TO OBSERVE THE HAND OFF, WE CAN DO THAT SO THAT YOU ALL CAN ALL BE PART OF RECEIVING THE AWARD. SO, GENTLEMEN, LADIES, COME ON DOWN. WHILE THEY'RE COMING DOWN. I'LL JUST SAY THAT THIS DOES [00:10:04] REPRESENT A SYMBOL OF OUR APPRECIATION TO MCKINNEY FOR ITS PARTNERSHIP AND OUR CONTINUED COMMITMENT TO SERVING THE NORTH TEXAS REGION. TOGETHER, WE THANK THE ENTIRE CITY COUNCIL AND EACH ONE INDIVIDUALLY, AS WELL AS THE CITY STAFF, FOR BEING PART OF THE STORY AS WE LOOK AHEAD TO THE NEXT 75 YEARS OF CONTINUING TO BUILD OUR SHARED FUTURE THE SAME WAY WE HAVE FOR THE LAST 75 YEARS, ALL IN TOGETHER. SO WITH THAT, MAYOR COX, I'LL MAKE THIS PRESENTATION TO YOU. AND DEPENDING UPON HOW MUCH YOU TRUST THEM, YOU WANT TO, I'LL LET YOU DO THAT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. YOU'RE VERY WELCOME. THANK YOU ALL FOR LETTING US COME. I DON'T DO PICTURES. YOU KNOW. WE GOT TWO OF THEM. NOW, THESE ARE THESE ARE REALLY. ARE. THANK YOU. MR. MAYOR. I WANT TO SAY THAT, YOU KNOW, MR. PASCAL WAS A LONGTIME CITY MANAGER HERE IN THE CITY, AND MISS KEEVER WAS, I THINK, TWO TERMS ON COUNCIL AND AT LEAST THAT ON SCHOOL BOARD. RIGHT. SO WE'RE VERY FORTUNATE TO HAVE BOTH OF THEM SERVING IN THIS CAPACITY. [26-1016 Proclamation for Make a Difference Day] WE HAVE A PROCLAMATION THIS EVENING. THOSE OF YOU HERE FOR MAKE A DIFFERENCE DAY, COME ON DOWN. EVEN SAYING THE WORD MAKES ME DO IT. ALL RIGHT. THE STRENGTH OF A COMMUNITY IS DEPENDENT UPON THE COMPASSION, ENGAGEMENT, AND GENEROSITY OF ITS CITIZENS. MAKE A DIFFERENCE DAY CELEBRATED ON THE FOURTH SATURDAY OF OCTOBER AS A NATIONAL CALL TO ACTION THAT ENCOURAGES INDIVIDUALS, BUSINESSES AND ORGANIZATIONS TO ENGAGE IN ACTS OF SERVICE TO ADDRESS LOCAL NEEDS. FOR DECADES, MILLIONS OF AMERICANS HAVE UNITED ON THIS DAY TO VOLUNTEER, ORGANIZED CHARITABLE PROJECTS AND PERFORM ACTS OF KINDNESS, BOTH LARGE AND SMALL, THAT CREATE A RIPPLE EFFECT OF POSITIVE CHANGE. THROUGH THESE EFFORTS, VOLUNTEERS EXEMPLIFY THE SPIRIT OF SERVICE AND CIVIC PRIDE THAT FOSTERS A STRONGER, MORE CONNECTED, AND MORE RESILIENT COMMUNITY FOR ALL. THE RESIDENTS OF MCKINNEY, TEXAS, HAVE A LONG AND PROUD TRADITION OF SELFLESSNESS AND COMMUNITY SPIRIT. AND AS MAYOR OF MCKINNEY, TEXAS, I DO RECOGNIZE OCTOBER 24TH, 2026 AS THE MAKE A DIFFERENCE DAY. CONGRATULATIONS. GOOD EVENING EVERYONE. MY NAME IS DEONDRE PRITCHETT, BOARD CHAIR FOR VOLUNTEER MCKINNEY. THIS IS OUR WONDERFUL BOARD HERE. I'M NEAL, LANA, COURTNEY, MICHELLE, LISA AND WE HAVE A FEW OTHERS THAT ARE ABSENT TONIGHT. BUT WE ARE HERE AND REALLY APPRECIATE THE RECOGNITION AS WE CONTINUE TO MAKE GREAT, GREAT IMPACT WITHIN THE CITY OF MCKINNEY, AS WELL AS ACROSS COLLIN COUNTY. AND AS WE CONTINUE TO SUPPORT NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS ON EVERY LEVEL. SO THANK YOU AGAIN. [00:15:10] NOW IT'S TIME FOR THE PUBLIC COMMENT SECTION. IF YOU'RE HERE TO ADDRESS THE CITY COUNCIL ON A NON PUBLIC HEARING ITEM THAT IS ON OUR AGENDA. SEEING WE HAVE NO ONE SIGNED UP. ALL [CONSENT AGENDA] RIGHT. WE'LL MOVE ON TO OUR CONSENT AGENDA. MR. MAYOR, I'D LIKE TO PULL DOWN ITEM 26-1028. OTHER THAN THAT, I CAN MOVE THAT WE APPROVE THE CONSENT AGENDA AS PRESENTED BY STAFF. SECOND. HOLD ON. I WANT TO PULL. OH, SORRY. I'D LIKE TO PULL DOWN 261024. OKAY. ANYONE ELSE. OKAY. WE HAVE A CONSENT AGENDA TONIGHT THAT CONSISTS OF ITEMS 26-0920 THROUGH AND INCLUDING 26-01028. AND WE'RE PULLING DOWN OFF OF THAT LIST 26-0128 AND 26-0124. DO WE HAVE A MOTION 0241028. 22-10102. AND 1028102810240. OKAY JUST FOR THE RECORD. OKAY SO THE THE ITEMS THAT WE'RE PULLING DOWN ARE 26-1024 AND 26-1028. THE CONSENT AGENDA CONSISTING OF 26-0920 THROUGH AND INCLUDING 26-1028 MINUS TWO PULL DOWNS ANY MORE? DO WE HAVE A MOTION? MR. MAYOR, I MOVE WE APPROVE THE CONSENT AGENDA WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THOSE TWO ITEMS. I'LL. SECOND, WE HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCILMAN. WE HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCILWOMAN FELTUS AND A SECOND BY COUNCILMAN CLOUTIER. IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION? PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE. THAT MOTION [26-1024 Consider/Discuss/Act on a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Construction Contract and All Necessary Change Orders with A&C Construction, Inc. Irving, TX for Construction of the of the Wattley Park Improvements project (PK1831)] CARRIES 26-1024. COUNCILMAN BELLAR. YEAH, I WAS REALLY WANTING TO SHOW OFF WATLEY PARK HERE. THIS IS THE CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT FOR REDOING WATLEY PARK. AND GIVE A LITTLE BIT OF BACKGROUND ON THIS. THIS PARK HAS BEEN PART OF THE CITY OF MCKINNEY PARK SYSTEM SINCE 1947, WHEN IT WAS DONATED BY THE CITY FEDERATION OF COLORED WOMEN'S CLUBS FOR THE LEWISVILLE COLORED PARK PROJECT. IT WAS IMPROVED INTO ITS CURRENT STATE IN 1996, WHICH WAS ABOUT 30 YEARS AGO, BUT IT WAS NAMED AFTER A LADY NAMED WILL MAUREEN WATLEY, WHO IN 1951 STARTED THE UNITED DAY NURSERY AND SERVED IN THAT ROLE FOR DECADES, PROBABLY, MAYBE, MAYBE THREE DECADES. BUT SHE WAS ALSO APPOINTED TO THIS TO OUR CITY PARK BOARD IN 1962. AND THAT DATE IS, YOU KNOW, FAIRLY SIGNIFICANT FOR WHAT WAS GOING ON IN THIS COUNTRY IN 1962 THAT WE APPOINTED WILL MAUREEN TO OR THAT THE CITY APPOINTED WILL MAUREEN TO THE PARKS BOARD. SHE SERVED THERE, FROM WHAT I COULD TELL ABOUT EIGHT YEARS, BECAUSE SHE WAS ON THERE IN 1970 FOR A PROJECT, BUT VERY ACTIVE IN OUR COMMUNITY. THE WYLIE NAME HAS A LOT OF OF ACTIVE COMMUNITY MEMBERS, BUT JUST WANTED TO THANK THE PARKS TEAM FOR THEIR WORK ON THIS. THIS HAS BEEN A TOUGH PROJECT TO GET DONE BECAUSE OF SOME CHALLENGES WITH THIS SITE, BUT I'M EXCITED FOR WHAT'S TO COME AND TO CONTINUE THE LEGACY OF WILL MAUREEN, WILL, MAUREEN WATLEY IN THE OLD LOUISVILLE NEIGHBORHOOD OF OLDEST MCKINNEY. SO I WANT TO MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE ITEM. I JUST WANTED TO SHOW OFF THE PICTURE. I'LL SECOND THE MOTION BY COUNCILMAN BELLAR. SECOND BY. COUNCILWOMAN FELTS. BUT I GOT CREDIT, MR. MAYOR. WELL, WE DON'T NEED THAT. WE. NO WE DON'T. YEAH. ARE YOU THINKING YOU JUST WON'T GIVE UP, WILL YOU? ONE OF THESE DAYS? WELL, IT IS WHAT IT IS. PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE. WITH THAT. MOTION CARRIES. NEXT ITEM [26-1028 Consider/Discuss/Act on a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Enter Into a Memorandum of Understanding with HD Sports & Hospitality, LLC, Parkhill, Smith & Cooper, Inc., and the City of McKinney Texas for the Design and Development of Two City Owned Parcels of Land Consisting of Approximately 300 Acres of Land to Potentially be Developed for a Combination of Sports, Retail, Entertainment/Restaurant, and Mixed Use Commercial Uses] 26-1028. COUNCILMAN CLOUTIER, THIS IS A BIG DEAL. I'VE BEEN LIAISON TO THE PARKS BOARD AS LONG AS I'VE BEEN ON COUNCIL. AND ONE OF THE THINGS WE HEAR EVERY YEAR, WE GET ALL THE LITTLE LEAGUES AND BASEBALL AND SOCCER AND CRICKET AND FILL IN THE BLANK SPORTS. AND THEY'RE SAYING, WE WANT MORE FIELDS, WE WANT MORE FIELDS. AND FIELDS ARE A HEAVY LIFT. SO I'LL [00:20:02] INVITE IF IT'S OKAY, MISS KINCAID UP OR TREVOR TO TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THIS ITEM AND TALK TO THE COMMUNITY ABOUT WHAT WE'RE DOING. THANK YOU, COUNCILMAN MAYOR, MEMBERS OF COUNCIL. TREVOR MINYARD, ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER 26-1028, IS A MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN PARK HILL AND HD SPORTS AND HOSPITALITY TO START MASTER PLANNING AND PRE-DESIGN PROCESSES FOR A 300 ACRE SPORTS PARK IN THE NORTHWEST SECTOR OF MCKINNEY. OVER THE COURSE OF THE LAST COUPLE OF MONTHS, THE CITY HAS BEEN DOING SOME ANALYSIS OF OTHER DEVELOPMENTS SIMILAR TO WHAT WE HAVE ENVISIONED AND HAS BEEN ON OUR ROSTER, SO TO SPEAK, OR ON OUR LEDGER TO GET DONE. SINCE WE PURCHASED THE PROPERTY BACK IN 2021, AND WE ARE BRINGING THIS MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING TO YOU AFTER THE APRIL ADOPTION OF A LETTER OF INTENT WITH THE SAME TWO GROUPS OVER THE COURSE OF THE NEXT 9 TO 12 MONTHS, WE WILL ENDEAVOR TO DEVELOP A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT, A MASTER DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THAT SPORTS COMPLEX. IN ADDITION, DURING THAT TIME, WE WILL PROVIDE VARIOUS MARKET RESEARCH AND ANALYSIS, DO VARIOUS DUE DILIGENCE ACTIVITIES WITH THE PARTNERS THAT ARE REPRESENTED IN THE MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING. AND THEN OBVIOUSLY, WE WILL UPDATE THE COUNCIL MORE FREQUENTLY THROUGH THAT NINE MONTH TO 12 MONTH PROCESS AS WE MAKE SOME PROGRESS. I'M HAPPY TO STAND FOR ANY QUESTIONS. BURCH DALTON WITH HD SPORTS AND HOSPITALITY IS HERE. AND THEN WE HAD A COUPLE MEMBERS OF PARK HILL HERE. I KNOW THAT THEY'D BE HAPPY TO MENTION ANYTHING IF THE COUNCIL SO WISHED. QUESTIONS, COMMENTS. WHY DON'T WE HAVE THEM COME UP SINCE THEY THEY'VE MADE THE EFFORT. LET'S DO THAT. GOOD EVENING MAYOR, I'M DALTON COUNCIL MEMBERS. THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING US TO COME TONIGHT. GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. MY NAME IS KYLE LAFFERTY. I'M A PARTNER WITH PARKHILL, SO I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. BUT IF YOU DON'T MIND, I'D LIKE TO START WITH A LITTLE OPENING STATEMENT. SO, NUMBER ONE, I LOVE YOUR CITY. I CAME DOWN HERE AS PART OF THE COMPETITION TO WIN THE JOB, WORKING CLOSELY WITH PARKHILL. SPENT THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS. YOU HAVE A CANVAS THAT IS UNBELIEVABLE THAT WE'RE ALL HERE TO PAINT THE DEMAND ON THE COMMUNITY LEVEL. I MET WITH SOME OF YOUR BASEBALL SOFTBALL PEOPLE YESTERDAY. YOUR SOCCER PEOPLE AND THE LOCAL DEMAND IS OUTSTANDING. I'VE BEEN ASSOCIATED WITH QUITE A FEW PARKS. YOUR CITY ADMINISTRATOR AND SEVERAL OTHER PEOPLE CAME UP TO WESTFIELD, INDIANA AND SAW OUR 400 ACRE PARK WITH 26 BASEBALL SOFTBALL FIELDS AND 32. AND IT KIND OF KICKED OFF, YOU KNOW, THE THINKING PROCESS HERE. I WILL TELL YOU THAT MCKINNEY'S PARK WILL BE AN EPIC PARK BECAUSE OVER THE LAST TEN, 15 YEARS, WE'VE LEARNED WHAT WORKS. WE ALSO LEARNED WHAT DOESN'T WORK. AND YOU HAVE ALL THE RESOURCES AND TOOLS TO MAKE THIS A VERY COOL PARK. KYLE, MAYOR AND COUNCIL, WE'RE HONORED TO BE A PART OF THE PROCESS. OBVIOUSLY, WE TOOK PART IN THE CITY HALL THAT WE'RE STANDING IN TODAY. AND OVER THE PAST 20 YEARS, WE HAVE ENJOYED THE PARTNERSHIP WITH YOU MAINLY ON THE PARK SIDE. SO WE ARE ENTHUSIASTIC TO BE ABLE TO BRING THE VISION TO FRUITION FOR THE COMMUNITY. THIS IS TRULY THE COMMUNITY'S PROJECT, SO TO BE A PART OF IT, WE ARE HONORED. THIS FOR ME IS SOMETHING SPECIAL. SOMETHING YOU ALL PROBABLY DON'T KNOW. THIS IS THE CITY I TOOK MY FIRST STEPS IN. SO WHERE I LEARNED TO WALK AND WHERE I LEARNED TO RUN. SO I'M EXCITED TO BE A PART OF THIS PROJECT. IT IS GOING TO BE FANTASTIC AND WE CAN'T WAIT TO BEGIN. ANY QUESTIONS? GREAT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU BOTH FOR BEING HERE. THANK YOU. APPRECIATE IT. LOOK FORWARD TO THE PROJECT. THANK YOU, MR. MAYOR. WITH THAT, I'D OFFER A MOTION THAT WE APPROVE 26-1028 AS PRESENTED BY STAFF MOTION. MOTION BY COUNCILMAN CLOUTIER TO APPROVE 26-1028. SECOND BY MAYOR PRO TEM FRANKLIN. IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION?

PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER AN ANNEXATION CASE AND A REZONING TO SEE TWO AND TR 1.8 TOWNHOME. THIS IS ON THE NORTH EAST SIDE OF NORTH CUSTER ROAD. 2478. 1800FT SOUTH OF COUNTY ROAD. 125. MR. RILEY, GOOD EVENING. LUCAS REILLY, DIRECTOR OF PLANNING. THE APPLICANT HAS REACHED OUT TO US AND REQUESTED THAT WE TABLE THIS ITEM INDEFINITELY AND CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. I WILL STAND FOR ANY QUESTIONS. OKAY. ANY QUESTIONS? WE HAVE A MOTION FOR STAFF REPORT IN HISTORY. I'LL MAKE A MOTION. WE APPROVE THIS ITEM. YOU HAVE THE WILL. WE HAVE A PUBLIC HEARING? IT'S A PUBLIC HEARING. SO IT'S. SO LET'S DO THIS. THIS IS A PUBLIC HEARING. IF YOU IF YOU'RE HERE TONIGHT TO SPEAK ON THIS PROPOSED ANNEXATION CASE AND REZONE. IT WAS POSTED. SO IF YOU MADE THE EFFORT, YOU'RE WELCOME TO COME SPEAK. BUT PLEASE KNOW THE APPLICANT HAS MADE HAS MADE A REQUEST TO TABLE THE ITEM INDEFINITELY. SEEING NO ONE HAS. MR. MAYOR, I MOVE. WE CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND I MOVE THAT WE TABLE THE ITEM INDEFINITELY. WE HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCILMAN CLOUTIER TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND TABLE THE ITEM INDEFINITELY. SECOND. SECOND BY COUNCILWOMAN FELTUS. IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION? PERFECT. PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE. THAT MOTION CARRIES. THAT ITEM HAS BEEN [26-0015SUP2 Conduct a Public Hearing to Consider/Discuss/Act on a Specific Use Permit Request for Minor Vehicle Repair (Local’s Auto), Located on the Southwest Corner of Wilmeth Road and North Hardin Boulevard, and Accompanying Ordinance] TABLED. OUR NEXT ITEM TONIGHT IS 26-0015SUP2. A PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT FOR VEHICLE REPAIR. LOCALS. AUTOMOTIVE. THIS IS ON THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF WILMOT ROAD AND NORTH HARDIN BOULEVARD. MR. REILLY. THIS REQUEST IS FOR A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT FOR AN AUTOMOTIVE REPAIR MINOR, WHICH REQUIRES A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT UNDER THE ADOPTED PD ZONING THAT GOVERNS THIS PROPERTY. THE LOCATION IS THE SOUTHWEST CORNER AT THE INTERSECTION OF HARDIN AND WILMOTH. LOOKING THROUGH WHERE THE LOCATION IS IN THE CITY. THIS IS THE EXISTING ZONING MAP. THERE ARE TWO PD S THAT GOVERN THIS AREA THROUGH PAINTED TREE AND THEN ONE ACROSS THE STREET. AGAIN, JUST KIND OF A NEIGHBORHOOD VIEW OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN CALLS FOR URBAN LIVING AND SUBURBAN LIVING. AND THEN ANOTHER VIEW, KIND OF A NEIGHBORHOOD VIEW OF THE EXISTING ZONING. THIS SHOWS OUR 200 FOOT NOTICING MAP FROM THE PROPERTY LINES. AND THEN GOING INTO THE PROPOSED SITE PLAN, THE APPLICANT, EXCUSE ME, THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING FOR THE STRUCTURE TO BE APPROXIMATELY 84. 83FT AS SHOWN HERE ON THIS SITE PLAN FROM THE NEAREST SINGLE FAMILY LOT LINE TO THE WEST, EXCEEDING THE 30 FOOT SETBACK THAT'S REQUIRED UNDER THE ZONING ORDINANCE. THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL CANOPY, TREES AND ENHANCED LANDSCAPING ALONG THAT WESTERN PROPERTY LINE, SUPPLEMENTING THE EXISTING MASONRY SCREENING WALL. IN ADDITION, THE SERVICE BAYS WILL FACE WILMOTH ROAD AND THE EXISTING SHOPPING CENTER AWAY FROM THE RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD, AND THOSE BAY DOORS ARE DESIGNED TO RESEMBLE GLASS WINDOWS WHEN CLOSED. THE PROPOSAL MEETS ALL THE APPLICABLE DESIGN STANDARDS, INCLUDING PARKING, VEHICLE SCREENING. EXCUSE ME, VEHICLE STACKING, LANDSCAPING, SCREENING AND THE BUILDING HEIGHT. STAFF RECEIVED ONE ONLINE CITIZEN COMMENT AND NO FORMAL LETTERS OF SUPPORT OR OPPOSITION. AS SUCH, STAFF RECOMMENDED APPROVAL. THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION CONSIDERED THIS ITEM AND UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDED APPROVAL AS WELL. I'LL STAND FOR ANY QUESTIONS. LUCAS, CAN YOU GO BACK TO THE SLIDE THAT SHOWS THE AERIAL VIEW? OKAY, SO [00:30:04] WE'VE GOT FOUR DIFFERENT CORNERS OF THIS ROUNDABOUT, AND THEY'VE SELECTED THE ONE THAT HAS THE MOST ACTIVITY. TALK TO ME ABOUT THE OTHER ONES. TALK TO ME ABOUT THE ONE AT THE NORTHEAST, NORTHWEST AND THE SOUTHEAST. ARE THOSE IN THE CITY? WHAT IS THE ZONING THERE? YEAH. SO GOING BACK TO THIS KIND OF NEIGHBORHOOD VIEW OF THE ZONING. I'M GOING TO PULL UP THE PD FOR THE PROPERTY THAT IS TO THE EAST, JUST SO I CAN REFERENCE THAT. IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S QUITE AN OLD PROPERTY. THE PD THAT GOVERNS THE THE SUBJECT SITE AND THEN SOUTH AND WEST IS ALL THE SAME. PD. IT'S THE PAINTED TREE PD. IT ALLOWS FOR THESE COMMERCIAL USES BUT REQUIRES THE SUP SPECIFICALLY FOR THE AUTOMOTIVE USE. I THINK ONE THING THAT'S IMPORTANT TO NOTE SPECIFICALLY FOR THIS CORNER IS THAT THERE'S AN EXISTING SUP ORDINANCE THAT WAS APPROVED FOR THIS LOCATION THAT WOULD ALLOW FOR A GAS STATION THAT WAS A 7-ELEVEN THAT CAME THROUGH AND REQUESTED. THAT'S UPA FEW YEARS BACK AND THAT HAS NOT EXPIRED. AND SO THAT 7-ELEVEN NEVER MANIFESTED. IS THAT RIGHT? OKAY, I REMEMBER THAT 7-ELEVEN. AND SO THAT'S THAT'S SOMETHING THAT STAFF HAS TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION WHEN REVIEWING THIS REQUEST, IS THAT WE VIEW THE PROPOSED USE AS TO BE EVEN LESS INTENSIVE THAN THE USE THAT COULD COME IN BY RIGHT IF THEY WERE TO DEVELOP, ACCORDING TO THE APPROVED SITE PLAN. LOOKING ACROSS THE STREET, I WOULD HAVE TO LOOK A LITTLE FURTHER INTO THE PD. LOOKS LIKE ON THE NORTHERN SIDE AT CTJ. SO THAT THAT'S CORRECT. THAT NORTHWEST SIDE IS NOT IN THE CITY LIMITS, BUT THE NORTHEAST IS STILL INCORPORATED. CORRECT. THE NORTHEAST AND THE SOUTHEAST ARE BOTH INCORPORATED LOOKING QUICKLY. IT LOOKS LIKE THEY'RE PERMITTED FOR SINGLE FAMILY USES AND OTHER RESIDENTIAL USES. SO NOT FOR COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT. AT THIS POINT, THEY WOULD REQUIRE A REZONING. AGAIN, SPEAKING TO THIS SPECIFIC CORNER, WHY THIS CORNER? I THINK THAT AS YOU CAN SEE, THE UTILITIES, THE INFRASTRUCTURE, THE RIGHT HAND TURN LANE, ALL OF THAT HAS ALREADY BEEN RIGHT, ALREADY BEEN PROVIDED FOR BY THE DEVELOPER. OTHER QUESTIONS? ANYONE? NO. THANK YOU. LUCAS IS OUR APPLICANT HERE? I BELIEVE THEY ARE. OKAY. IS THERE ANY WAY WE CAN PROPOSE TO ADD A APPROACH ON OUR STREETS WHERE IT DOESN'T MITIGATE THAT MUCH? SIR, MAYBE YOU SHOULD APPROACH THE MICROPHONE, IDENTIFY YOURSELF, IF THAT'S OKAY. SORRY. MY NAME IS ZACH WHEAT WITH HUNTINGTON CONSTRUCTION. I'M JUST TRYING TO SEE IF MAYBE IT'LL MAKE EVERYBODY FEEL A LITTLE BETTER. IF WE CAN PUT AN APPROACH ON HARDEN TO PULL IN TO MITIGATE ANY TRAFFIC. LUCAS, DO YOU NEED TIME TO STUDY THAT OR NOT? THAT WE'RE GOING TO LEGISLATE FROM FROM THIS MOMENT, BUT REGARDING ANY APPROACHES, I WOULD LEAN ON OUR ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT TO REVIEW THAT. I THINK THERE'S ALREADY AN APPROACH SOUTH OF THERE. SO IF YOU'RE WATCHING THIS AT HOME, GARY, SORRY I SAID THIS, BUT I DOUBT THE ENGINEERING WOULD APPROVE THAT GIVEN THE DRIVEWAY SPACING REQUIREMENTS AND THE DISTANCE. OH, YOU ARE HERE. OH, YOU BETTER COME ON UP, GARY. I'LL GIVE IT OVER TO OUR DIRECTOR OF ENGINEERING. HIGHLY QUALIFIED TO ANSWER THIS QUESTION, GARY GRAHAM. COUNCIL. GARY GRAHAM, DIRECTOR OF ENGINEERING. SO YEAH, WE WE WE'LL VISIT WITH THEM. NOT AT THIS THIS SETTING. I THINK THAT'D BE MORE APPROPRIATE. BUT MORE THAN LIKELY BECAUSE OF THIS, THE SPACING AND THE SEPARATION OF THE ONE TO THE SOUTH PROBABLY WOULDN'T APPROVE THAT. BUT I DON'T WANT TO MAKE THAT COMMENT WITHOUT SPUR OF THE MOMENT WITHOUT DOING A LITTLE RESEARCH, THOUGH. SO THE QUESTION BEFORE US TONIGHT IS, IS, IS THE SUP REQUEST NOT EXACT LOCATION OF THE DRIVE CORRECT? NOT SITE DESIGN. OKAY, SO THERE WILL BE A TIME FOR YOUR QUESTION TO BE ANSWERED BY THAT MAN RIGHT THERE. PERFECT. OKAY. VERY GOOD, VERY GOOD. SO YOU'RE THE APPLICANT. WE REPRESENT THE. OKAY. OKAY, OKAY. GIVE US FROM FROM YOUR SEAT WHAT THIS LOOKS LIKE. SO MY NAME IS TRAVIS SULLIVAN. I WORK FOR HUNTINGTON PROPERTIES. WE OWN THE PROPERTY. THIS IS LOCALS AUTOMOTIVE. WE'VE BUILT AT LEAST 30 OF THESE ACROSS THE COUNTRY. VERY, VERY EXCITING. AUTOMOTIVE CENTER THERE, THERE. WE CAN ADAPT TO DIFFERENT HOA'S OR OUR ARCS. WITH WITH WHAT WE PROVIDE AT THIS PLACE, WE CAN DO DIFFERENT ROLL UP DOORS. WE CAN DO DIFFERENT THINGS TO JUST PROVIDE FOR WHATEVER THE COMMUNITY NEEDS. AND I KNOW THIS IS VERY CLOSE TO THE [00:35:04] NEIGHBORHOOD, AND WE'VE BUILT SEVERAL CLOSE TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD. AND WHAT WE WHAT WITH THIS, THE SOUND INSULATION AND THINGS THAT WE DO, WE PREVENT IT FROM DISTURBING THE NEIGHBORHOOD. AND, YOU KNOW, JUST REALLY EXCITED. THEY LOOK REALLY, REALLY. EXTRAVAGANT, I GUESS, FOR AN AUTOMOTIVE CENTER. SO REALLY, WE'RE JUST TRYING TO GET THE SUP APPROVED SO WE CAN PROCEED WITH OUR CONSTRUCTION PROJECT ON THIS. BUT AGAIN, WE'VE BUILT SEVERAL AND THEY'RE ADAPTABLE TO WHATEVER COMMUNITY WE'RE IN AND SERVES A REALLY GOOD AND NICE AUTO CENTER FOR THE COMMUNITY. OKAY. VERY GOOD. WHAT ARE THE HOURS OF OPERATION THAT THESE THINGS NORMALLY SEE? SO WE DO THEY THEY TYPICALLY RUN FROM MONDAY THROUGH SATURDAY FROM 7 A.M. TO 6 P.M. OKAY. WHICH IS VASTLY LESS THAN A A 7-ELEVEN SELLING GAS FOR SURE. OKAY. AND THEY DON'T OPERATE ON SUNDAYS EVER. ANYONE ELSE? NO. THANK YOU. I APPRECIATE YOU BEING HERE, BOTH OF YOU. THANK YOU, THANK YOU. THIS ITEM DOES HAVE A PUBLIC HEARING COMPONENT. IF YOU COME TONIGHT AND WOULD LIKE TO ADDRESS THE CITY COUNCIL ON THIS PROPOSED SUP SEEING THAT WE HAVE NO ONE SIGNED UP. I'M THE REPRESENTATIVE FOR THE AREA PAINTED TREE, WHICH IS IN THIS AREA. WE'VE HAD A LOT OF CONVERSATIONS. WHEN THE 7-ELEVEN ITEM CAME UP FOR DISCUSSION. I BELIEVE THAT WE'VE GOTTEN A VERY GOOD IDEA OF WHAT THE RESIDENTS ARE SEEKING AT THAT CORNER, BECAUSE IT IS IN SUCH CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THE PROPERTY LINE RIGHT THERE. I HAVE A LOT OF CONCERNS ABOUT THIS PROJECT. OBVIOUSLY, YOU KNOW, IDEALLY WE WOULD LOVE TO SEE IT ACROSS THE STREET AWAY FROM THE RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES. FOR ME, IT'S JUST TOO CLOSE. THIS IS NOT WHAT OUR RESIDENTS WANT TO SEE. AND THIS IS ONE OF THOSE ONES WHERE WE CAN USE DISCRETION BECAUSE IT'S AN SUP, RIGHT? SO BUT I THINK THE USE FOR THIS AREA IS JUST NOT WHAT WE'RE IT'S NOT FITTING FOR WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR FOR THE AREA. I WOULD BE WITH YOU ON THIS, BUT IT SEEMS TO ME FROM WHAT STAFF IS TELLING US, THAT IF WE SAY NO TO THIS, THE 7-ELEVEN IS STILL THERE BY. RIGHT. THEY COULD JUST PLOP DOWN THERE. THEY THEY TRIED. AND IT DID NOT WORK FOR WHAT THEY WERE TRYING TO LAY OUT. OKAY, SO IT HAS IT HAS KIND OF DISSIPATED BECAUSE IT DIDN'T FIT WITH THEIR PLAN. IS IT FAIR TO SAY THEN BECAUSE IT'S NOT MY DISTRICT, BUT I DO. I KNOW YOU DO SYMPATHIZE WITH WHAT YOU'RE SAYING, BUT IS IT FAIR TO SAY THEN THAT YOU DO NOT FEAR A GAS STATION, WHETHER IT'S 7-ELEVEN OR FILL IN THE BLANK? BECAUSE I THINK THAT WOULD BE A ALWAYS A FEAR. BUT THIS, THIS, THIS ITEM CAME UP FOR A LOT OF DISCUSSION. THERE WAS A LOT OF BACK AND FORTH WITH THE 7-ELEVEN. IT JUST. IS IT FAIR FOR ME TO ASK WHAT THE CONCERNS WERE FROM THE COMMUNITY? JUST. JUST BECAUSE WE'VE BUILT SO MANY. I THINK HAVING ANY SORT OF AN AUTO REPAIR SHOP OR GAS STATION FOR THEM IS NOT REALLY WHAT THEY WANT TO SEE. THEY'D RATHER SEE RETAIL OR OFFICE OR SMALL OFFICE OR SOMETHING ON THAT CORNER. OKAY. OTHER QUESTIONS. I'VE GOT A QUESTION FOR LUCAS. YOU SAID THE SUP EXPIRES. HOW LONG DOES AN SUP LAST ON THAT GAS STATION USE? SO I BELIEVE IT'S A FIVE YEAR EXPIRATION DATE. AND PULLING UP THAT ORDINANCE. IT WAS 2022. SO IT'S GOT LESS THAN 12 MONTHS ON IT. IT WAS ADOPTED IN AUGUST OF 2022. SO IT WOULD BE AUGUST OF NEXT YEAR THAT THAT WOULD EXPIRE. AND THEY WOULD HAVE TO JUST SUBMIT A SITE PLAN, ANYTHING IN THE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS TO TO NOT BE AVOIDED. YEAH, I, I REMEMBER WHEN THIS CAME THROUGH FOR ZONING FOR THE SUP DOCTOR AND I WERE BOTH AGAINST THIS. IT'S IT'S TOO CLOSE. IT'S ONE OF THE REASONS THERE WAS KIND OF A PUSH FOR 250 FOOT BARRIER OR FOR GAS STATIONS WAS THIS WAS SHOCKINGLY CLOSE TO NEIGHBORS. AND AS YOU MENTIONED, YOU KNOW, DOWN THE STREET AT WILMOTH AND TAYLOR BURKE, WE HAD A LARGE CONTINGENT COME OUT AGAINST A GAS STATION JUST A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO. AND SO I STRUGGLE WITH THIS. I KNOW, YOU KNOW, THESE PLACES ARE GOOD USERS AND THEY'RE NEEDED PARTS OF THE COMMUNITY. I JUST I DON'T LIKE THE SITE. I WOULD PREFER IT LIKE ANOTHER PART OF THIS INTERSECTION OR CLOSER TO TO 75. BUT. I'VE GOT A QUESTION. [00:40:01] PROBABLY YOU THIS I KNOW THIS IS NOT A SITE PLAN APPROVAL. THE BLUE LINE SHOWS THE PROPERTY ABUTTING UP TO THE TWO RESIDENTS, ONE, TWO, THREE RESIDENTS. YOU'VE GOT A DRIVEWAY. THAT'S. AND IT SEEMS AN EXISTING DRIVEWAY. SO THE BUILDING, ALL OF THE ACTIVITY WOULD BE ON THE EAST SIDE OF THAT DRIVEWAY. ANYTHING ON THE WEST SIDE IN THAT OPEN AREA FROM THE DRIVEWAY. SO WE'RE TREATING THAT AS A LANDSCAPE BUFFER. THERE WILL BE THE ONLY ACTIVITY WOULD JUST BE GREEN SPACE ON THE WEST SIDE OF THAT DRIVE. OKAY. ON THE EAST SIDE, IT WOULD BE THE AUTO CENTER. AND I WILL SAY THAT WE IT'S A. OH, SURE. AND WE DO. THIS BUILDING IS BUILT OUT OF CMU WALL AND ON THE INSIDE OF THE GARAGE. WE DO SOUND BAD INSULATION. AND ON THE FRONT OF HOUSE, WHICH IS ABOUT 1000FT■S, WE DO ALL ACOUSTICAL INSTALLATIONS JUST TO, TO PREVENT THE NOISE, MORE SO FOR THE COMMUNITY. AND ESTHETICALLY, WE KIND OF, WE KIND OF ABIDE TO THE A OR C OR WHATEVER THE, THE COMMUNITY HOA GUIDELINES ARE. I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S BENEFICIAL TO SHOW KIND OF WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE, BUT JUST WE SIMPLY WE TAKE INTO ACCOUNT HOW CLOSE WE ARE. I'VE BUILT ONE MORE. SO IN THE AUSTIN LOCATION, PFLUGERVILLE, THAT WAS LESS THAN 100FT FROM A PROPERTY LINE OF A NEIGHBORHOOD. AND WE'VE HAD NO COMPLAINTS. WE'VE HAD A LOT OF CUSTOMERS THAT ACTUALLY SAID THEY WELCOMED THE SITE JUST JUST BECAUSE THERE WAS NO AUTO CENTER AROUND THERE. IT LOOKS ESTHETICALLY PLEASING. AND THE SOUND, THE LENGTHS WE GO TO TO PREVENT THE SOUND FROM A TYPICAL AUTO CENTER IS ABOVE AND BEYOND A TYPICAL AUTO CENTER. THE ROLL DOWN DOORS THAT HE MENTIONED, WE MAKE THEM OUT OF DUAL PANE GLASS, SO THEY'RE ESTHETICALLY PLEASING AND THEY HAVE AN ACOUSTICAL VALUE. SO SO IT DOESN'T DISTURB THE NEIGHBORS AND THE COMMUNITY IN THE PROPERTY. SO DO YOU DO YOU HAVE ANY PICTURES OF WHAT YOU BUILT IN THE PAST? I DO. ARE YOU DOING HERE? THE PICTURES ON. THE OKAY. WE'VE GOT PICTURES. YEAH, WE FOUND IT. WE'VE GOT THEM ON. YEAH. IT'S TAKEN A MINUTE TO LOAD. WE'VE GOT PICTURES. OKAY. YEAH. AND SO SO THIS, THIS PARTICULAR AUTO CENTER, IT USED TO BE SERVICE STREET AUTO. AND THEY'VE SINCE SWITCHED OWNERSHIP TO LOCAL AUTO. AND IT'S COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. LOOK. SO I'M INTERESTED TO SEE WHAT THE PICTURES YOU HAVE. THE LOGO SAYS LOCAL AUTO. OKAY. PERFECT. YEAH. CMU BUILDING. YES. YEAH. AND WE DO WE DO A WE'VE DONE TEXTURED PAINT IN SOME LOCATIONS ON THE OUTSIDE AND SOME LOCATIONS. WE'VE DONE EFFORTS AND RIGID INSULATION TO JUST HELP FURTHER FOR THE ACOUSTICS, RIGHT? OF ALL THE AUTO CENTER WORK. SO OTHER QUESTIONS. COMMENTS. THANK YOU FOR COMING BACK UP. APPRECIATE IT. NOT A PROBLEM. THANK YOU. YOU BET. THANK YOU. ANY MORE QUESTIONS COMMENTS MOTIONS. PUBLIC HEARING. CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. WE'VE DONE THAT. YEAH WE DID. OKAY. I KNOW YOU DIDN'T. OKAY. THAT WAS THE APPLICANT. THAT WAS THE OTHER ONE. HAVE YOU HERE FOR THIS ITEM? YES. COME ON UP. WE DIDN'T HAVE YOU SIGNED UP IN THE SYSTEM. THAT'S WHY YOU WEREN'T SHOWING UP. BUT YOU CERTAINLY. CHECKED OUT. THERE WAS LIKE 550. YEAH. YEP. ALL RIGHT. MY NAME IS JACOB YOUNG. I LIVE ACTUALLY IN TIMBER CREEK. [00:45:02] SO THE OPPOSITE CORNER IS WHERE THAT NEIGHBORHOOD IS. WHEN MY FAMILY MOVED TO THE AREA A LITTLE OVER FOUR YEARS AGO, WE LIKED THAT THERE WERE LOTS OF BUSINESSES AND SHOPPING WITHOUT TOO MUCH OF A DRIVE, AND YET YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO GO VERY FAR AT ALL. NORTH OF 380 OR WEST OF 75 BEFORE IT WAS SOLIDLY RESIDENTIAL AND AWAY FROM THE HUSTLE AND BUSTLE. IT'S A DELICATE BALANCE AND WE THOUGHT IT WAS ALMOST PERFECTLY ACHIEVED IN MCKINNEY. RECENT ADDITIONS ALONG HARDIN HAVE THREATENED TO DISTURB THAT BALANCE, AND WITH THOSE COMMERCIAL USES KIND OF CREEPING UP TOWARD OUR LITTLE REFUGE. BUT AT LEAST AT THIS POINT, THEY'VE BEEN RELATIVELY QUIET AND NOT THAT DISRUPTIVE TO OUR ROUTINES. THIS PARTICULAR PROPOSED USE CROSSES A LINE. WE THINK AUTO SHOPS ARE KIND OF UNAVOIDABLY BUSY, NOISY AND AND DIRTY. I'M SURE THEY'VE MADE EFFORTS TO MAKE IT LOOK NICE OUTSIDE, BUT THOSE ARE CHARACTERISTICS WE WANT TO AVOID IN A PLACE THAT WE CALL HOME. IN MY OPINION, THIS WOULD DESTROY THAT DELICATE BALANCE THAT BROUGHT MY FAMILY TO THE AREA, AND IT'S ONE OF THE CLOSEST PROPERTIES THAT'S INTENDED FOR COMMERCIAL USE TO MY OWN HOME. THEY TALK A LOT ABOUT OIL CHANGES AS THEIR THEIR PRIMARY USE, AT LEAST IN THE PLANNING AND ZONING MEETING THAT I WATCHED. BUT MY MIND GOES IMMEDIATELY TO TIRES AND THE NOISE ASSOCIATED WITH TIRE ROTATIONS AND REPLACEMENTS, AND I HAVE RARELY SEEN AN AUTO SHOP WITH THE GARAGE DOORS CLOSED WHILE IT'S IN OPERATION. THEY JUST MOVE PEOPLE IN AND OUT REGULARLY. SO I WORRY ABOUT THAT NOISE. I THINK, YOU KNOW, I, I DRIVE ALONG WITH ALL THE TIME AND I CAN'T THINK OF A SINGLE OTHER OBVIOUS BUSINESS ADJACENT TO WILMOTH ANYWHERE WEST OF COMMUNITY. AND THIS AREA IS VERY RESIDENTIAL. SO I THINK EVEN REFERRING TO THESE AS TWO MAJOR ARTERIALS IS KIND OF NOT TELLING THE WHOLE STORY. I'M HOPEFUL THAT THE NEW 380 BYPASS WILL ALLEVIATE SOME OF THE RECENT TRAFFIC INCREASES ON WILMOTH. GETTING IT BACK TO A ROAD USED PRIMARILY BY THOSE THAT LIVE IN THE NEIGHBORHOODS BORDERING IT. BUT IF THE COUNCIL APPROVES, THIS SPECIFIC USE PERMIT WILL BE LOSING SOME OF THAT HOPE THAT THIS AREA CAN REMAIN A PEACEFUL, RESIDENTIAL DOMINATED NEIGHBORHOOD. I JUST DON'T THINK OF IT AN AUTO SHOP AS AN ESSENTIAL SERVICE THAT NEEDS TO BE SO CLOSE TO TO MY HOME. IF YOU CAN GET TO SOMEWHERE FOR A MINOR MAINTENANCE, YOU MUST HAVE TRANSPORTATION AND BE ABLE TO GET A LITTLE FURTHER AWAY TO SOMEWHERE THAT'S A BUSIER AREA. IT CAN ONLY NEGATIVELY IMPACT OUR PROPERTY VALUES, INDUSTRIALIZE OUR RESIDENTIAL SPACE, AND BECOME AN EYESORE, EVEN IF IT DOESN'T NECESSARILY START THAT WAY. I GUESS THAT'S MY TIME, BUT I JUST RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THAT YOU REJECT THIS SPECIFIC USE PERMIT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR. YOUNG. ANYONE ELSE? OKAY. VERY GOOD. I JUST SPEAK TO A COUPLE OF WORDS, MR. YOUNG, REALLY QUICK, AND I'D LOVE TO GET YOUR INFORMATION AND YOU CAN HAVE A SEAT. I DIDN'T MEAN TO, BUT I JUST WANTED TO ADDRESS SOME OF YOUR COMMENTS. YOU KNOW, EVEN THOUGH I'M NOT IN SUPPORT OF THIS PROJECT, I THINK IT'S VERY IMPORTANT THAT WE ARE AWARE THAT THE CITY OF MCKINNEY DOES NOT OWN THAT CORRIDOR IN TERMS OF THE LAND, WHAT WHAT CAN BE DEVELOPED THERE, RIGHT. SO THAT'S PRIVATE PROPERTY. WE ARE IN THE SECOND FASTEST GROWING REGION IN THE COUNTRY. PEOPLE ARE COMING. I KNOW PAINTED TREE, AND I'VE SAID THIS AT THE HOA MEETINGS A COUPLE OF TIMES. HOA IS A NICE KIND OF QUIET COMMUNITY RIGHT NOW, BUT THE GROWTH IS COMING, WHICH IS WHY THAT DEVELOPMENT IS THERE IN HONEY CREEK IS COMING JUST NORTH OF THAT. AND I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT BECAUSE AS PEOPLE ARE LISTENING AND AGREEING, WE WANT TO KIND OF KEEP IT PEACEFUL, SOME OF THOSE THINGS ARE NOT IN THE CONTROL OF THE CITY. THERE ARE PROPERTY RIGHTS THAT THESE OWNERS DO HAVE. OUR DUTY IS TO MAKE SURE THAT IT FITS WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND THAT ON ISSUES WHERE WE DO HAVE SOME DISCRETION, WE CAN WEIGH SOME OF THE DESIRES OF THE COMMUNITY IN MOVING FORWARD WITH SOME OF THESE PROJECTS. AND SO I JUST WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE WHAT YOU SAID, BUT ALSO SET THE EXPECTATION THAT EVEN IF WE DENY THIS, THERE ARE OTHER THINGS THAT BY RIGHT CAN BE DEVELOPED THERE THAT ARE NOT GOING TO NEED THE APPROVAL OF THIS COUNCIL. AND SO SOMETIMES WE TAKE A RISK BY SAYING NO TO SOMETHING THAT LOOKS NICE. TO BE HONEST WITH YOU, IT LOOKS NICE, BUT I AGREE WITH YOU. I THINK IT IS FAR TOO CLOSE TO THE RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY LINE. I THINK ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE DOING BREAKS, THAT NOISE FROM THE REPAIRS IS GOING TO BE SOMETHING THAT COULD BE DISRUPTIVE. AND THAT'S WHY I LIKE TO SEE THESE TYPES OF [00:50:04] PROJECTS A LITTLE BIT MORE REMOVED FROM RESIDENTIAL UNITS. SO THANK YOU. CAN I SPEAK? CAN I SAY SOMETHING? SURE. IN REGARDS TO THAT AND IN RESPONSE TO. YEAH. IN RESPONSE. CORRECT. SO IN RESPONSE TO THAT, SO LIKE, I JUST WANT TO KIND OF MAKE IT CLEAR WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO FOR THE COMMUNITY OF MCKINNEY. MCKINNEY. SO LIKE WE HAVE, WE'RE A RETAIL AND REAL ESTATE DEVELOPER. SO WE HAVE SHOPS AT PAINTED TREE, WHICH WE'RE BRINGING MULTIPLE TENANT USES, 20,000 SQUARE FOOT RETAIL CENTER, WHICH IS ALMOST COMPLETED AND BUILT. WE HAVE SHOPS AT PAINTED TREE, SO WE RESPECT WHAT WHAT WE'RE BRINGING TO THE COMMUNITY. AND WE'RE BRINGING THIS AUTO CENTER AS SOMETHING KIND OF AS AN ADDITION TO THAT WITH, WITH THE MINDSET OF WHAT THE COMMUNITY AND, AND ALL THE COMMENTS WERE AS BUILDING THOSE RETAIL CENTERS FROM THE ESTHETIC STANDPOINT, FROM THE NOISE STANDPOINT AND UNDERSTANDING THAT PEOPLE THAT MOVE THERE FOR A CERTAIN REASON. AND AGAIN, AS I STATED EARLIER, WE WE'VE BUILT 30 OF THESE AUTO CENTERS. THEY'RE RELATIVELY QUIET. WE HAVE A RESPECTFUL TENANT. AND, AND THE TENANT IS THE SAME TENANT THROUGH ALL 30 PROJECTS WE'VE BUILT. WE HAVE 100 MORE ON THE DOCKET ACROSS TEXAS AND FLORIDA. SO, I MEAN, WE, WE, WE HAVE A GREAT RESPECT FOR MCKINNEY. WE'VE BUILT ABOUT SEVEN PROJECTS IN THE CITY OF MCKINNEY. AND WE HAVE A GREAT RELATIONSHIP WITH THE CITY. WE WE RESPECT KIND OF THE GUIDELINES AND EVERYTHING THAT YOU GUYS ARE DISCUSSING. AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE BRINGING WITH THIS AUTO CENTER WITH. WITH ALL THAT IN MIND. SO WE HAVE A SHOPS AT PANTRY, WE HAVE SHOPS AT WILMOTH, WHICH ARE BOTH 20 PLUS THOUSAND SQUARE FOOT RETAIL CENTERS WITH MULTI TENANT USES, WHETHER IT'S RESTAURANTS OR DENTIST OFFICE OR THESE DIFFERENT THINGS. AND WE'RE KEEPING THAT SAME ESTHETIC MINDSET. AND ALSO RESPECT TO THE COMMUNITY AS FAR AS NOT TRYING TO DISTURB THE WAY OF LIFE SO MUCH. SO I JUST WANTED TO KIND OF SUBMIT. I APPRECIATE THAT, RESPECTFULLY, IF IT WERE ACROSS THE STREET, THIS WOULDN'T BE A CONVERSATION. UNDERSTOOD, UNDERSTOOD. SO I APPRECIATE WHAT YOU'RE DOING. PLEASE STAY WITH IT. WE LOVE THE ESTHETIC, BUT IT'S JUST IN THE WRONG LOCATION FOR ME. OKAY. UNDERSTOOD. THANK YOU, THANK YOU. ANYONE ELSE? MR. MR. MAYOR, I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO DENY. DO YOU MIND IF I SAY SOMETHING? I'M JUST GOING TO MAKE A COMMENT. MR. YOUNG, THIS IS A LITTLE BIT FOR YOU. 30 YEARS AGO, WE MOVED TO ROUGHLY THE CORNER OF EL DORADO AND HARDIN, AND THERE WAS JUST A BUNCH OF CRICKETS RIGHT THERE. THERE WAS NOTHING THERE, MAN. AND YOU KNOW, YOU'VE GOT AUTO REPAIR THERE NOW, AND IT'S NOT A TERRIBLE OUTCOME. AND THERE'S SOME, SOME, SOME STUFF RIGHT THERE. NOW, I'M NOT TRYING TO MANSPLAIN THIS THING, SAYING, I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU THIS ANYWAY. I'M GOING TO VOTE NO ON THIS BECAUSE OF WHAT YOU'RE SAYING, BECAUSE I DO RESPECT WHERE YOU GUYS ARE. BUT RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET, JUST TO THE WEST OF YOUR DEVELOPMENT, IT'S IN THE ETJ. YOU HEARD ME SAY THAT EARLIER. THE ETJ MEANS TERRITORIAL JURISDICTION. AND SO THAT'S NOT IN OUR CITY. WE DON'T GET A BITE AT THAT APPLE. SO THIS COULD EASILY GO UP THERE AND THEN ANNEXED INTO THE CITY. SO I JUST WANT YOU TO TEMPER YOUR EXPECTATIONS. I'M GOING TO SUPPORT YOU ON THIS. I'M NERVOUS ABOUT WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO GET HERE. BUT BUT I JUST WANT YOU TO KIND OF UNDERSTAND THAT IN THIS GROWING CITY, STUFF DOES CHANGE. AND BY AND LARGE, IT WINDS UP OKAY. THANK YOU, MR. MAYOR. I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND DENY THIS ITEM. SECOND, A MOTION BY COUNCILWOMAN FELTUS TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND DENY THE APPLICATION FOR APPLICANT REQUESTS. AND A SECOND BY COUNCILMAN CLOUTIER. IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION? ANYONE? COUNCILWOMAN FELTUS. AND THERE WE GO. PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTES. THAT MOTION TO THE MOTION IS APPROVED TO DENY THE APPLICANT'S REQUEST BY A VOTE OF SIX FIVE IN FAVOR AND ONE AGAINST. COUNCILMAN JONES IS ABSENT. FIVE SUPPORTED THE MOTION TO DENY AND ONE VOTED NO ON THE MOTION. SO YOUR YOUR REQUEST WAS DENIED. YEAH. SO I WOULD SAY GET WITH LUCAS AND KIND OF SEE IF THERE'S A NEXT STEP. OKAY. YEAH. NEXT ITEM [26-0012SUP2 Conduct a Public Hearing to Consider/Discuss/Act on a Specific Use Permit Request for Minor Vehicle Repair (Integrity 1st Auto Repair), Located on the East Side of Coit Road and Approximately 650 Feet South of Virginia Parkway, and Accompanying Ordinance] 26-0012SUP2. A PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT FOR MINOR VEHICLE REPAIR. THIS IS INTEGRITY. FIRST AUTO REPAIR ON THE EAST SIDE OF CUSTER ROAD, 650FT SOUTH OF [00:55:05] VIRGINIA PARKWAY. MR. REILLY. ALL RIGHT. THIS IS ANOTHER SUP REQUEST FOR A VEHICLE REPAIR MINOR. SO THIS IS IN THE FAR WESTERN PORTION OF THE CITY OF MCKINNEY. YOU CAN SEE THERE ON THE CITY WIDE ZONING MAP. AND HERE'S THE NEIGHBORHOOD VIEW SHOWING WHERE THIS SUBJECT PARCEL IS IN THAT C TWO ZONING AREA ADJACENT TO THE PD AND ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE CITY OF FRISCO. KIND OF CLICK THROUGH HERE. THIS IS THE MAP THAT SHOWS THAT 200 FOOT BUFFER SHOWING THAT WHERE WE NOTICE FOR SUP. IT'S IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT WE DO NOT HAVE A NOTICING REQUIREMENT WHEN THOSE ADJACENT PROPERTIES ARE OUTSIDE OF THE CITY OF MCKINNEY. AND SO THAT WOULD BE THE CASE FOR THOSE PROPERTIES ARE ACROSS COYOTE. THOSE ARE IN FRISCO, RIGHT? LUCAS. THAT'S CORRECT. AND IN THIS CASE, THE PROPOSED VEHICLE REPAIR SHOP IS SHOWN HERE ON THE SITE PLAN. THEY HAVE PROVIDED A 45 FOOT SETBACK. AGAIN, IN ADDITION TO THE MINIMUM REQUIRED SETBACK. AND I WILL ALSO SHOW THEIR LANDSCAPE PLAN. THEY HAVE OFFERED TO INCREASE THE REQUIREMENT FOR THE LANDSCAPE BUFFER AND PROVIDE SOME ADDITIONAL LANDSCAPING AS WELL, TO TRY AND MITIGATE THE ADJACENCY TO THE MULTIFAMILY. TO THE SOUTH, ALL THE SERVICE BAY DOORS ARE ORIENTED AWAY FROM THAT MULTIFAMILY DEVELOPMENT TO TRY AND MINIMIZE ANY IMPACTS ON THOSE NEIGHBORING RESIDENTS AND THE PUBLIC STREETSCAPE. THE PROPOSAL DOES MEET THE CITY'S APPLICABLE ZONING AND SITE DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS, AND STAFF HAS RECEIVED NO LETTERS OF SUPPORT OR OPPOSITION OR ONLINE CITIZEN COMMENTS. THIS WAS ALSO SEEN BY OUR PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION PRIOR TO THIS EVENING, AND THEY RECOMMENDED UNANIMOUSLY THAT COUNCIL APPROVE THIS ITEM. I'LL STAND FOR ANY QUESTIONS. THANK YOU. LUCAS. QUESTIONS? DON'T HAVE ANY. IS OUR APPLICANT HERE? I BELIEVE THEY ARE, YES. BUT IT'S NOT EMBEDDED IN YOUR. IT'S NOT EMBEDDED. OKAY, COOL. HI. MY NAME IS TYLER ADAMS. I'M AT 100 NORTH COTTONWOOD DRIVE IN RICHARDSON, TEXAS, SUITE 104. AND YEAH, I DO HAVE LIKE, OH, GREAT. OKAY, I CAN AT LEAST SCROLL THROUGH THIS. THAT'S GREAT. SO INTEGRITY FIRST IS A IS REALLY WHAT, WHAT THEIR PLACEMENT IS A DEALER REPLACEMENT OR SORRY, DEALER ALTERNATIVE. SO THE, IT'S A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT THAN YOUR AVERAGE AUTO REPAIR SHOP. AND I STILL KIND OF SHOOK BY THE, THE, THE SCHEDULING OF THESE TWO BACK TO BACK. BUT THIS IS, THIS IS A, A DEALER REPLACEMENT KIND OF FACILITY. AND WHAT THAT MEANS IS THAT YOU TYPICALLY MAKE AN APPOINTMENT, THE NUMBER OF, SAY, OIL CHANGES AND INCIDENTALS AND THINGS LIKE THAT ARE ONLY ABOUT 10% OF THEIR OF THEIR BUSINESS. AND THE REST OF IT DOES KIND OF JUST, YOU KNOW, IT'S, IT'S ALL KIND OF SET UP BEFOREHAND. THE HOURS OF OPERATION ARE MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY, 7 TO 6 P.M. THEY KEEP IT THAT WAY BECAUSE THEY WANT TO HIRE THE BEST AND BRIGHTEST. AND TYPICALLY THOSE GUYS DON'T WANT TO WORK ON THE WEEKENDS. SO IT'S BOTH TO BE A GOOD NEIGHBOR AND TO AND TO HIRE THE BEST TALENT. WE'VE ALREADY KIND OF LOOKED AT WHERE IT IS, BUT IT DOES FIT WITHIN THE COMMERCIAL CENTER DISTRICT. ON THE FUTURE LAND USE PLAN OF THE ESTABLISHED COMMUNITY DISTRICT. AND THEN HERE'S, HERE'S OUR SITE. SO YOU CAN SEE IT'S PART OF THIS C2 COMMERCIAL. AND THEN PD 1621, THE SINGLE FAMILY, THE, THE CLOSEST LOT LINE TO THE SINGLE FAMILY THERE IS ABOUT 540FT OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, IF I CAN REMEMBER CORRECTLY, BETWEEN OUR SITE AND THE MULTIFAMILY, YOU KNOW, PART OF IT IS ADJACENT TO A DETENTION POND. AND THEN THE OTHER PART OF THAT PROPERTY LINE HAS AN EIGHT INCH, EIGHT FOOT MASONRY WALL AND A SUBSTANTIAL GRADE CHANGE THAT'S ABOUT EIGHT FEET BETWEEN 5 AND 8FT, DEPENDING ON WHERE YOU ARE ON THE SITE. SO BOTH IN THAT IN THAT LANDSCAPE SETBACK, WE'VE GOT SUBSTANTIAL PLANTINGS AND AND A GOOD AMOUNT OF GRADE CHANGE TO KIND OF HELP BUFFER BETWEEN THOSE TWO USES. AS WE'VE NOTED, ALL THE BAY DOORS, FACE, FACE TOWARDS THE COMMERCIAL. I THINK ON THE SITE PLAN, I'M SHOWING 40FT, BUT IN ACTUALITY, IT'S, IT'S 45 TO THE [01:00:05] TO THE FACE OF THE BUILDING. OBVIOUSLY, WE'VE GOT THE, THE REQUIRED LANDSCAPE BUFFER UP FRONT. THERE ARE SOME WINDOWS. I'LL JUST BE FULLY, YOU KNOW, STRAIGHTFORWARD WITH IT. THERE ARE SOME WINDOWS THAT ARE FACING THAT TOWARDS THE MULTIFAMILY. THOSE ARE ONE INCH INSULATED GLASS, LIKE THE KIND OF THE COMMERCIAL STYLE GLASS. AND THAT'S, THAT'S A CODE REQUIREMENT NOW TO LET IN NATURAL LIGHTING FROM, FROM BOTH SIDES OF THE BUILDING. I'VE ALREADY TALKED ABOUT THE DEALER ALTERNATIVE. I WILL SAY THAT INTEGRITY FIRST IS A IS A YES KIND OF COMPANY. SO THERE ARE THINGS THAT THEY SAY THEY WILL OR THAT THEY WILL DO. BUT THINGS LIKE ENGINE TRENDS OR ENGINE REPLACEMENTS, TRANSMISSION BREAKDOWNS, ALL THAT KIND OF LIKE HEAVY STUFF GETS, GETS OUTSOURCED TO, TO OTHER FACILITIES. AND WHAT I WANTED TO POINT OUT IS THIS IS NOT A HIGH VOLUME SHOP. I'VE KIND OF ALREADY TALKED ABOUT THAT. BUT, YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT AUTO USES, A LOT OF TIMES THE, YOU KNOW, THE TRAFFIC GOES ONE WAY THROUGH THE BUILDING. SO YOU'VE GOT QUEUED UP AND THEN AND THEN CARS GO THROUGH. AND YOU KNOW, WHEN, WHEN YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT THIS, YOU'RE, YOU'RE APPROVING OR, YOU KNOW, CONSIDERING THE USE, NOT THE COMPANY, RIGHT? SO ANOTHER COMPANY COULD TAKE THIS. HOWEVER, BECAUSE OF THE WAY THAT THE BUILDING IS DESIGNED, YOU KNOW, THERE'S ONE IN, ONE OUT. THIS IS THIS JUST CANNOT BE USED AS A AS A HIGH VOLUME SHOP. AND, YOU KNOW, YOU'VE GOT THE. SO THERE IS ZERO ACTIVITY BETWEEN THE BUILDING AND, AND, AND THE SCREEN WALL TO THE MULTIFAMILY. AND EVERYTHING IS, IS HANDLED ON THE, ON THE COMMERCIAL SIDE. AND, YOU KNOW, JUST FROM A DEMAND SIDE, I MEAN, WE'RE EXCITED ABOUT THIS SITE. THE OWNER OF THE COMPANY THINKS THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST SITES THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT RIGHT NOW. INTEGRITY FIRST HAS ABOUT 13 FACILITIES HERE IN DALLAS OR THE DFW AREA. I SHOULD SAY THERE IS WE'VE GOT SOME IN SAN ANTONIO. AND THEN MOVING INTO KANSAS CITY RIGHT NOW, I'VE GOT TWO UNDER CONSTRUCTION AND TWO THAT ARE ABOUT TO START CONSTRUCTION. SO THEY'RE THEY'RE BOTH ESTABLISHED AND IN A IN A GROWTH IN A GROWTH PHASE. AND, YOU KNOW, WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THIS A LITTLE BIT BEFORE, BUT TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF AND KEEPING KEEPING ALL OF THE ACTIVITIES INSIDE. THERE ARE NO CARS THAT ARE LEFT OVERNIGHT OUTSIDE THAT ARE NOT OPERABLE. OBVIOUSLY, YOUR CITY NOISE ORDINANCE WILL WILL KEEP US FROM MAKING TOO MUCH NOISE. BUT, YOU KNOW, GOING INTO SEVERAL COMMUNITIES NOW, WE'VE ALWAYS BEEN A GOOD NEIGHBOR. THE, YOU KNOW, EVERYTHING IS HANDLED AS FAR AS ANY TOXIC MATERIALS AND ALL THAT ARE ALL HANDLED BY A THIRD PARTY, EPA APPROVED COMPANY THAT THAT TAKES ALL THAT STUFF AWAY. SO, YOU KNOW, NO BULK IS STORED ON SITE. AND, AND LIKE I SAID BEFORE, YOU KNOW, REALLY WE ONLY HAVE 2 OR 3 OIL CHANGES A DAY. SO WHEN A LOT OF THESE, A LOT OF THESE OTHER COMPANIES WILL SEE 80 TO 120 CARS. AND THIS IS MORE OF LIKE A, A 10 TO 12. AND THIS TRAFFIC IMPACT, THIS IS JUST OUT OF THE, THE TRIP GENERATION MANUAL. BUT YOU CAN KIND OF SEE OUR PROPOSED USE OF AN AUTO AUTO CARE CENTER. AND, YOU KNOW, THIS IS STILL ABOVE WHAT, WHAT WE WOULD EVER SEE. HOWEVER, JUST LOOKING BETWEEN, SAY, A REGULAR QUICK LUBE, YOU CAN SEE HOW MUCH MORE TRAFFIC THAT GENERATES AS OPPOSED TO OURS. AND THEN SOMETHING LIKE A SPECIALTY RETAIL CENTER WOULD ALSO ADD A LOT MORE TRAFFIC BURDEN. AND THESE ARE JUST SOME, SOME PICTURES OF, OF OUR PROPOSED BUILDING. AND THEN YOU'VE GOT, I THINK THE, THE MORE TECHNICAL COLOR DRAWINGS IN YOUR PACKET. AND THAT'S ALL I'VE GOT. AND I AM OPEN TO QUESTIONS. OTHER QUESTIONS ANYONE? NOPE. WE'RE GOOD. THANK YOU. I APPRECIATE THE PRESENTATION. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THIS IS A PUBLIC HEARING ITEM. IF YOU COME TONIGHT AND WOULD LIKE TO ADDRESS THE CITY COUNCIL ON THIS PROPOSED. REZONE, PLEASE COME TO THE PODIUM. MR. MAYOR, I MOVE THAT WE CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND I'LL MAKE A COMMENT IF THAT'S OKAY. I KNOW THESE ARE TWO LIKE ITEMS THAT CAME AROUND EACH OTHER, BUT THESE ARE VASTLY DIFFERENT FOR ME CAUSE IT'S A VERY BUSY ROAD. AND, AND YOU'VE GOT TWO RIGHT THERE IN THE PARKING LOT. THEY'VE GOT AND C2 IS ACTIVE COMMERCIAL STUFF. YOU'VE GOT MULTIFAMILY TO THE SOUTH. AND I DON'T THINK THERE'S ANY EXPECTATION OF, YOU KNOW, PEACE AND LOVE ON COURT ROAD, MAN. IT'S JUST BUSY. AND THIS IS A, TO ME, A LOW IMPACT USE THAT FITS IN VERY WELL IN THIS AREA. SO I'LL BE SUPPORTIVE OF IT. THANK YOU, MR. MAYOR. OKAY. WE HAVE A MOTION TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. DO WE HAVE A SECOND? [01:05:06] I'LL SECOND. SECOND MOTION BY COUNCILMAN CLAUDIA AND A SECOND BY MAYOR PRO TEM FRANKLIN TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE. I JUST WANT TO LEAVE IT OPEN IN CASE THERE'S ANY OTHER REMARKS, MR. MAYOR. BUT ANYWAY, FROM THE PUBLIC HEARING, WELL, FROM YOU, I MEAN, FROM THE OTHER COUNCIL MEMBERS. THAT'S WHY I DIDN'T MOVE TO APPROVE THE ITEM IN CASE ANYBODY ELSE. SO THAT MOTION CARRIES. THE PUBLIC HEARING HAS BEEN APPROVED. SO NOW WE'LL HAVE QUESTIONS. COMMENTS. ANYONE? I FEEL IN GENERAL, THE SAME WAY THAT COUNCILMAN CLAUDIA FEELS. IT'S VERY WELL INSULATED. IT'S NOT A MAJOR ROAD, VERY GOOD LANDSCAPING. THE BUILDING REALLY LOOKS NICE. I LIKE THE PRESENTATION. AND SO I'M. I'M IN FAVOR. ANYONE ELSE? THIS IS COUNCILMAN MAYOR PRO TEM FRANKLIN'S DISTRICT. I'M GOING TO DEFER TO HIM. BUT I DO AGREE WITH PATRICK'S ASSESSMENT AS WELL. ALL RIGHT. WE HAVE A MOTION. I'LL MAKE A MOTION THAT WE APPROVE THIS ITEM AS PRESENTED BY STAFF. MR. MAYOR, WE HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCILMAN CLAUDIA TO APPROVE THE STAFF RECOMMENDATION. AND SECOND BY MAYOR PRO TEM FRANKLIN. ANY MORE DISCUSSION, PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE. THAT MOTION CARRIES [26-0087Z2 Conduct a Public Hearing to Consider/Discuss/Act on a Request to Rezone the Subject Property from “RS-60” - Single Family Residence District to “TR1.8” - Townhome Residential District, Located on the Southeast Corner of West Erwin Avenue and Coleman Street, and Accompanying Ordinance] THAT THE SHIP HAS BEEN APPROVED. THE NEXT ITEM IS 26-0087Z2. A PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER. REZONE OF PROPERTY FROM RS. 60 TO SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENCE TO TR18 TOWNHOME RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT. THIS IS THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF WEST IRWIN AVENUE AND COLEMAN STREET. MR. REILLY THANK YOU. MAYOR, THIS IS A REQUEST TO REZONE A PIECE OF PROPERTY THAT IS APPROXIMATELY 0.17 ACRES IN SIZE FROM RS. 60, WHICH IS A SINGLE FAMILY ZONING DISTRICT TO TR 1.8, WHICH IS THE CITY'S ATTACHED SINGLE FAMILY DUPLEX, TRIPLEX AND QUAD ZONING DISTRICT. YOU CAN SEE THE SUBJECT PROPERTY HERE. I'LL GO THROUGH A COUPLE DIFFERENT MAPS. THIS IS THE EXISTING ZONING MAP. ZOOMING BACK OUT TO WHERE THIS IS LOCATED IN THE CITY. IT'S IN OUR TOWN CENTER, RESIDENTIAL PLACE TYPE PER THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND THE ZONING MAP. LARGELY SINGLE FAMILY ZONED AREA. BUT THERE ARE POCKETS OF DIFFERENT ZONING DISTRICTS THAT ARE EITHER LEGACY DISTRICTS OR THAT HAVE BEEN RECENTLY REZONED TO TR 1.8. YOU CAN SEE HERE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD VIEW OF THE ZONING MAP, JUST TO THE NORTHEAST, YOU CAN SEE THAT TR 1.8 ACROSS THE STREET ON KENTUCKY FROM THE LEGACY ZONING DISTRICT. THAT WAS A RECENT CASE THAT CAME IN THIS YEAR, WHICH WAS ANOTHER REZONING TO TR 1.8. TALKING THROUGH THIS SPECIFIC PROPERTY, IT'S CURRENTLY UNDEVELOPED, LOCATED WITHIN THIS ESTABLISHED RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD. IT HAS A SINGLE FAMILY HOME DIRECTLY TO THE EAST AND THEN TO ITS SOUTH. AND FURTHER EAST OF THAT SINGLE FAMILY HOME IS CURRENTLY A RELIGIOUS ASSEMBLY BUILDING. THE PROPERTY IS DESIGNATED IN THAT HISTORIC TOWN CENTER. RESIDENTIAL. AS I'VE SAID FROM THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, WHICH SPECIFICALLY SUPPORTS ATTACHED RESIDENTIAL HOUSING TYPES AND ADDITIONAL HOUSING OPTIONS WITHIN THOSE ESTABLISHED NEIGHBORHOODS. SO STAFF BELIEVES THAT THIS REQUEST IS CONSISTENT WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLANS, VISION FOR INFILL DEVELOPMENT AND HOUSING DIVERSITY IN THE HISTORIC TOWN CENTER. AND IT'S COMPATIBLE WITH THOSE SURROUNDING RESIDENTIAL USES. I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THAT WHETHER THE PROPERTY IS DEVELOPED UNDER ITS EXISTING ZONING DISTRICT OR THE PROPOSED ZONING DISTRICT, THE ULTIMATE FORM OF THE STRUCTURE IN ITS MASSING AND SCALE WOULD BE QUITE SIMILAR. THE DIFFERENCES IN THE TWO ZONES ARE A FRONT AND REAR YARD SETBACK DIFFERENCE OF FIVE FEET. EACH GOES IN THE FRONT FROM 20 TO 15, IN THE REAR FROM 10 TO 5, AND THEN AN ADDITIONAL FIVE FOOT IN HEIGHT FROM 35FT TO 40FT. THOSE ARE THE CHANGES THAT KIND OF REGULATE THE BUILDING FORM FOR THE PROPERTY. SO I MENTIONED THAT EARLIER AT THE WORK SESSION, BUT WANTED TO REITERATE THAT DURING THIS ITEM THAT THE FORM, WHETHER IT'S DEVELOPED AS A SINGLE FAMILY OR IF IT WERE TO BE REZONED, DEVELOPED UNDER THAT TIER 1.8, LARGELY THE SAME STAFF RECEIVED FOR ONLINE CITIZEN COMMENTS, BUT NO FORMAL LETTERS OF SUPPORT OR OPPOSITION. PNC DID REVIEW THIS ITEM, AND THEY RECOMMENDED DENIAL. WITH A VOTE OF 4 TO 3. THE STAFF IS RECOMMENDING APPROVAL AND I WILL STAND FOR ANY QUESTIONS. [01:10:02] THANK YOU LUCAS. ANYONE QUESTIONS? COMMENTS? LUCAS. THANK YOU, THANK YOU. IS THERE APPLICANT HERE? I BELIEVE SO, OKAY. HI. GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS SEAN BECKHAM. I ACTUALLY LIVE AT 800 BELVEDERE PARKWAY IN LUCAS, TEXAS, AND I'M THE OWNER OF THIS PROPERTY. THERE WAS A SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING. I INITIALLY PLANNED TO PUT ON THIS LOT. HOWEVER, WITH THE UPDATED 2024 GUIDELINES FOR PARKING WHATNOT DIDN'T WORK, SO IT MOVED. THAT PROPERTY IS THAT HOME IS ACTUALLY BEING BUILT TWO BLOCKS AWAY ON FLORENCE STREET. HISTORIC IN NATURE FITS IN WITH THE COMMUNITY. THE. I DON'T KNOW IF THE LINK IS ON HERE FOR THE PROPOSED PLAN. THIS IS THE. OKAY. SORRY, LET ME GET THE BUTTONS RIGHT HERE. OKAY. SORRY, I THOUGHT THERE WAS A PICTURE. IT IS. THE PROPOSED PLAN IS A LOUISIANA STYLE TWO STORY ATTACHED TOWNHOUSE. THE NEIGHBOR ADJACENT TO THE RIGHT OF THE PROPERTY AT 504 WEST IRWIN, AUGUSTINE AND LETTY. THEIR CONCERN WAS THE ESTHETICS. AND IF IT FITS WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD, AND I BELIEVE COUNCILMAN BUTLER CAME UP WHILE WE WERE HAVING THE DISCUSSION AFTER THE PLANNING MEETING AND SAW. LETTY. YOU KNOW, HER EYES OPENED UP WHEN SHE SAW WHAT THE PROPOSED PROPERTY IS GOING TO LOOK LIKE AFTER THEY CAME UP AND WEREN'T HAPPY WITH THE REZONE. SO I FELT LIKE THEY WERE ON BOARD. AFTER THE CONVERSATION. AND I HAVE A VESTED INTEREST IN MAKING THE PROPERTY LOOK AMAZING BECAUSE I LIVE WILL LIVE APPROXIMATELY SIX HOUSES SOUTH OF THAT ON COLEMAN IN THE HISTORIC DISTRICT, SO I WANT THE PROPERTY TO FIT WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD, THE CHARM AND THE THINGS THAT BROUGHT MY WIFE AND I TO LOVE THE HISTORIC DOWNTOWN AREA. MCKINNEY. SO. QUESTIONS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR EXPLANATION. APPRECIATE THAT. ANY QUESTIONS OF THE APPLICANT? NONE. VERY GOOD. THANK YOU. THIS IS A PUBLIC HEARING ITEM. DO WE HAVE ANYONE SIGNED UP TO SPEAK? NO ONE SIGNED UP TO SPEAK. OKAY. ANYONE HERE THAT WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM? NO. OKAY. VERY GOOD. OKAY. QUESTIONS? COMMENTS? MOTIONS. MR. MAYOR, I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION. WE CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. HOLD ON A SECOND. MR. BALLARD. WERE YOU HEADED THAT DIRECTION? MAYBE. BUT WERE YOU JUST CLOSING THE PUBLIC HEARING? RICK? I CAN JUST DO THAT. YEAH. OKAY. OKAY. MAKE A MOTION TO CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING. MOTION BY MAYOR PRO TEM FRANKLIN TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. SECOND. SECOND BY COUNCILMAN LYNCH. THERE WE GO. SORRY. IT'S OKAY. PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE. THAT MOTION CARRIES. THE PUBLIC HEARING HAS BEEN CLOSED NOW. IF I COULD ASK YOU THIS BEFORE THE PUBLIC HEARING. BUT I DO NOTICE THAT THE RESIDENTS WHO WEREN'T HERE OR WHO WERE AT THE PNC MEETING AREN'T HERE TONIGHT. THE GUERREROS, YOUR CONVERSATION WITH THEM THAT ENDED AS THEM. APPRECIATING THE YOUR DESIGN, IS THAT THE WAY YOU'D CHARACTERIZE IT? YES. YES IT WAS. AND ONE OF THEIR LARGE CONCERNS WERE THERE ARE TWO VERY LARGE OAK TREES ON THE PROPERTY THAT REALLY ADD TO THE CHARM OF THE DOWNTOWN AREA. THEIR CONCERN WAS THOSE TREES WOULD BE REMOVED FOR THIS PROJECT, WHICH IS NOT MY INTENTION AT ALL. HOWEVER, I DID INFORM THEM THAT, YOU KNOW, IF DUE TO THE SIZE OF THE LOT, THEY COULD POTENTIALLY BE REMOVED IN THE FUTURE IF ALTERNATE PLANS HAD TO HAPPEN. SO, YOU KNOW, I THINK THAT WAS PART OF THE GIVEN THE GIVE AND TAKE ON THE SITUATION THERE. SO AND THE OTHER CONCERN FROM THE OTHER INDIVIDUAL WAS THAT IT IS A TIGHT KNIT COMMUNITY. THE ONE OF THE PREVIOUS OWNER LIVED AT [01:15:07] THAT PROPERTY FOR 14 YEARS AND MOVED DIRECTLY ACROSS THE STREET TO LIVE WITH THEIR DAUGHTER. YEAH. AND THAT. THEY DIDN'T WANT TO HAVE TO MEET AND BECOME FAMILIAR WITH TWO DIFFERENT POTENTIAL HOUSEHOLDS VERSUS ONE. SO YEAH, I MEAN, THIS, THIS IS MY NEIGHBORHOOD AS WELL. I LIVE ABOUT THREE BLOCKS AWAY ON WHITE AND, AND BRADLEY, AND IT IS AN OLDER, SINGLE FAMILY NEIGHBORHOOD, BUT IT'S GOT SOME, YOU KNOW, TOUGH SITES IN IT THAT THAT LIKE THE PROPERTY THAT WAS HERE THAT YOU SAID WAS NOT VIABLE ANYMORE. AND IT'S GOING TO HAVE MORE OF THOSE. AND I HAD ONE ACROSS THE STREET FROM ME THAT ENDED UP PLATTING INTO THREE, THREE LITTLE LOTS. I'M GENERALLY IN FAVOR OF DENSITY. I THINK ZONING IS A GOOD THING FOR, FOR THIS FOR THESE NEIGHBORHOODS. I THINK IT DOES BRING MORE OPPORTUNITY. I GUESS I STRUGGLE DOING THAT WHEN THE NEIGHBORS DON'T WANT IT THOUGH. AND SO THEM NOT BEING HERE, I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR THEIR KIND OF CHANGED POSITION OR ACCEPTANCE OF IT, RATHER THAN MAKE AN ASSUMPTION ABOUT THEIR IN THEIR ABSENCE. BUT I DO THINK THAT WE TALKED ABOUT BEFORE, BECAUSE YOU HAVE THE RIGHT AS A SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING TO PUT A SINGLE FAMILY IN AN ADU, WHICH CREATES THE SAME INTENSITY OF USE IN TWO DIFFERENT HOUSEHOLDS, THE SAME PARKING DEMAND THAT WOULD BE CREATED ON IT, THE SAME POTENTIAL RENTER PROFILE OF THE TENANTS THAT WOULD BE THERE, THE RESIDENTS THAT WOULD BE THERE. THE ONLY THING THAT THIS CHANGES REALLY IN OUR APPROVAL IS THE DESIGN ELEMENT OF IT, THAT IT'S, YOU KNOW, TWO DOORS NEXT TO EACH OTHER RATHER THAN A DOOR IN THE FRONT, A DOOR IN THE BACK. AND SO. I GUESS, YOU KNOW, I'M GENERALLY OKAY WITH THIS, BUT I WOULD REALLY PREFER TO HAVE THE, THE RESIDENTS FEEDBACK IN THIS. AND LUCAS, YOU SAID WE HAD FOUR COMMENTS ONLINE. THOSE WERE LARGELY OR THOSE WERE ALL AGAINST, WEREN'T THEY? YEAH. I GUESS, YOU KNOW, FROM FROM MY STANDPOINT, I THINK, YOU KNOW, I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR MORE FROM THE RESIDENTS. I KIND OF EXPECTED THEM TO BE HERE. AND SO WITH, WITHOUT DOING THAT, I, I WOULD I WOULD LIKE TO WAIT ON THIS, BUT I DON'T IT'S UP TO YOU WHETHER OR NOT YOU WOULD YOU WOULD BE IN FAVOR OF TABLING AND TALKING TO THE, TO, TO THE RESIDENTS MORE TALKING TO THE ONES THAT THAT THAT WROTE IN. BUT I GUESS UNTIL I'VE DONE THAT, I WOULD I WOULD LIKE TO WAIT. BUT THAT'S UP TO YOU, SEAN. OKAY. WELL, I WOULD HAVE. YEAH. ASSUME THEY WOULD BE HERE TONIGHT. I WOULD HAVE TO. SO I THOUGHT MY ANSWER WAS GOING TO BE EASY BECAUSE. BUT I GUESS I'M, I'M, I'M PRONE TO A NO UNTIL UNTIL I HEAR OTHERWISE FROM FROM NEIGHBORS. SO I'LL PUT IT THAT WAY. OKAY. SO IF THERE WERE A VOTE, I MEAN, IS THAT THE CONSENSUS OF WE CLOSED THE PUBLIC HEARING? SO IF YOU DON'T MIND, SEAN, JUST HANG ON A MOMENT. I'LL I'LL REITERATE THE SAME THING COUNCILMAN BELLER DID. THIS GOES MUCH BIGGER THAN YOU. THERE'S BEEN A NUMBER OF CASES IN THIS CITY WHERE WE ARE LOOKING AT AN INCREASED DENSITY NEAR A NEIGHBORHOOD. THIS IS AN INCREASED DENSITY IN A NEIGHBORHOOD, ALBEIT IT'S AN INCREASED DENSITY JUST MARGINALLY. RIGHT. BECAUSE WHAT COUNCILMAN BELLER WAS SAYING IS THIS COULD BE AN ACCESSORY DWELLING UNIT HERE, AN ADU, WHICH BASICALLY IF YOU BUILD A 2000 SQUARE FOOT HOUSE, YOU CAN BUILD UP TO $1,000 OR 1000FT■S OF ACCESSORY DWELLING UNIT. AND YOU WOULDN'T HAVE TO. YOU WOULDN'T HAVE TO COME BEFORE US TO DO IT. BUT IT'S. WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO DO, AND I'M GOING TO PROPOSE IT KIND OF WHETHER WE WANT IT OR NOT. I'M GOING TO MOVE THAT. WE TABLE THE ITEM, AND I'M GOING TO GIVE THESE RESIDENTS ONE MORE CHANCE TO COME HERE. IF YOU'RE RIGHT. YOU SHOW UP AND I'LL BE IN. YES, BUT FOR TONIGHT, I HAVE TO GIVE THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT. WHAT HAPPENS TO ULTIMATELY. FIND TO TABLE THIS THING. SO THAT'S MY COMMENT, MR. MAYOR. A MOTION THAT WE TABLE THIS. CAN I MAKE A MOTION? WE TABLE IT FOR A [01:20:13] MONTH BECAUSE THAT GIVES US A MONTH TO. LUCAS. WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THAT UNTIL OUR MID-NOVEMBER MEETING? BECAUSE I DON'T WANT MR. BECKHAM TO WAIT ANY LONGER THAN THAT. AND I THINK THAT GIVES PLENTY OF TIME FOR THE RESIDENTS TO COME UP HERE. YES, I WOULD SAY IT NEEDS TO BE AT LEAST ONE MONTH SO THAT WE CAN RE NOTICE. OKAY, I I'M GOING TO MAKE A MOTION THAT WE WE TABLE. YES. SO. THIS IS YOUR SECOND SECOND, THIRD. ONE. IN A. AYE. THOSE OPPOSED. SAME SIGN. OKAY. LUCAS. OKAY. THANK YOU. AND I'LL BE ABLE TO ADDRESS THE COMMENTS WITH THESE INDIVIDUALS OR IS IT OKAY. YEAH. ON NOVEMBER 6TH THIS. OKAY. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. APPRECIATE IT. THANK YOU. COMMENTS TONIGHT. I PROBABLY.

IT WAS TYPICALLY NOT A LINE. PRIOR TO DAVID AND BETH BENTLEY, WHO HELPED TO HOST SOMETHING CALLED [COUNCIL AND MANAGER COMMENTS] A COLLEGE MEGA FEST EVERY YEAR. THIS IS THEIR 15TH YEAR HOSTING IT, AND IT WAS HELD AT THE COLLIN COLLEGE CAMPUS HERE IN MCKINNEY. JAM PACKED FULL OF YOUNG FOLKS LEARNING ABOUT S T ACT PREP, FAFSA, GETTING SCHOLARSHIPS, AND LISTENING TO PANELS FROM DIFFERENT PROFESSIONALS. I HAD THE PLEASURE OF SERVING AS ONE OF THE PANELISTS ON A MEDICAL PANEL, AND IT WAS VERY ENLIGHTENING TO SEE THE YOUNG PEOPLE THAT ARE LIVING IN THIS COMMUNITY AND WHO ARE VERY EXCITED TO TAKE THE NEXT STEPS IN THEIR EDUCATION. SO. BUT THE SAINT MARK'S CHURCH HAS ALWAYS DONE A REALLY PHENOMENAL JOB. IT HAS JUST GROWN YEAR TO YEAR, AND IT IS NOW SOMETHING THAT WE CAN BE PROUD OF. TO SAY THAT THIS IS A GREAT PROGRAM THAT WE'RE OFFERING FOR OUR KIDS. SO I JUST WANTED TO SAY THANK YOU. THANK YOU TO THEM FOR THAT. I DID GO TO THE ASIAN FESTIVAL ON SATURDAY. I'LL MAKE A COMMENT AGAIN. I SAY THIS KIND OF THING A LOT, BUT MAN, IF THIS CITY PUTS ON SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T HAVE A CHARGE TO IT, THE PEOPLE COME OUT IN DROVES. MAN. IT IS POPULAR. IT WAS SO MUCH FUN. THE GREAT HOSTS, MY WIFE AND MY MIDDLE DAUGHTER AND ONE OF OUR GRANDDAUGHTERS TRIED TO GO TO BONNIE WENK PARK THE OTHER DAY FOR TRICK OR TREATING IN THE PARK, AND THEIR BEST CHOICE OF PARKING WAS IN SHERMAN. SO THEY DIDN'T GO. SO. BUT MAN, I'M TELLING YOU, IT'S JUST SOMETHING. I ALSO GOT TO GO TO THE GRACE TO CHANGE BANQUET. I WAS JOINED BY. CERTAINLY, COUNCILWOMAN FELTUS. MR. LYNCH AND MR. JONES WERE THERE. THAT IS A THAT IS A A HEAVY LIFT ORGANIZATION THAT DOES A HELL OF A LOT OF GOOD IN THE CITY AND SAVES A LOT OF LIVES AND BRINGS A LOT OF PEACE TO A LOT OF PEOPLE FOR A VERY LITTLE BIT OF MONEY. IF YOU'RE LOOKING TO GET INVOLVED IN ANYTHING TO DO WITH SUBSTANCE ABUSE, CONSIDER THEM. I WANT TO WELCOME WHAT I THINK ARE SOME LEADERSHIP MCKINNEY PEOPLE OVER HERE. GIVE ME A LITTLE SOMETHING, OKAY. THANK YOU ALL. THEY COME TO ONE COUNCIL MEETING, AND THEN THE LAST THING IS, IS I WAS WE GOT TO GO TO PURSE PURSES FOR A PURPOSE, WHICH IS THE MF ANNUAL THING WHERE YOU CAN GET A PURSE AND WIN A PURSE AND. MY FRIENDS MONICA AND JULIE ASKED ME A COUPLE MONTHS AGO TO BE THE GUEST DANCER IN THEIR LITTLE THING. AND SO I GOT TO BE THE GUEST DANCER. AND THE MAYOR RECOMMENDED THAT I QUIT MY DAY JOB, WHICH I DID. AND THE BOOKINGS AREN'T COMING IN, SIR. YEAH, I'M NOT SURE THAT WAS GOOD ADVICE, BUT WE CAN TALK ABOUT THAT. THANK YOU, MR. MAYOR. YEAH. YOU YOU YOU WERE ONE OF THEIR DANCERS, AND I WAS ONE OF THEM. WE'LL LEAVE IT AT THAT. WE'LL LEAVE IT AT THAT. IT'S BEEN A BUSY COUPLE OF WEEKS. A FEW HIGHLIGHTS. I WAS FORTUNATE TO ATTEND THE COLLIN COUNTY VETERANS CHILI COOK OFF ON SATURDAY. I WAS ABLE TO INTRODUCE THE ELECTED OFFICIALS AND VIPS AND DALLAS COWBOY HEROES FROM OUR YOUNGER DAYS. AND IT WAS REALLY. IT WAS REALLY FUN WATCHING THOSE GUYS AND HEARING STORIES FROM THE VETERANS. COLLIN COUNTY WAS AT THE VFW ON CHURCH STREET AND GREAT, GREAT FELLOWSHIP EVENT AND LOOKING FOR A BIGGER VENUE NEXT YEAR. GOT TO ATTEND TODAY, AS A MATTER OF FACT, A, A, AN EVENT THAT CATERED TO SMALL BUSINESSES THAT FOCUSED ON SMALL BUSINESS AND THOSE PEOPLE THAT OWN SMALL BUSINESSES [01:30:03] OFTENTIMES THINK DIFFERENTLY THAN PEOPLE THAT DON'T. AND IT WAS A SHOWCASE OF THE BEST OF THE BEST OF THE SMALL BUSINESSES IN MCKINNEY. AND IT WAS ADVOCATES FULL IN THE ROOM, JUST FULL OF ENERGY AND EXCITEMENT FOR FOR WHATEVER THEIR BUSINESS WAS. AND IT WAS REALLY FUN TO WATCH THOSE PEOPLE AND GET RECOGNIZED. WE ATTENDED MAIN GATE FUNDRAISER ON OVER THE WEEKEND. THIS IS A THERAPEUTIC FACILITY BASED AROUND HORSEBACK RIDING, AND IT IS TRULY A LIFE CHANGING EVENT. WATCHING PEOPLE THAT MENTAL STRUGGLES OR HEAD INJURIES AND WATCHING HOW THEY ARE ABLE TO REENTER LIFE, IF YOU WILL. BUT REALLY AN EXCITING PROGRAM FOR ADULTS AND KIDS THE LIKE. POLICE AND FIRE AND WATCHING YOU GUYS AND LADIES, WHAT YOU DO EVERY DAY IS JUST REALLY A, A, AN HONOR TO BE HERE AND SERVING AS THE MAYOR OF MCKINNEY, WATCHING OUR POLICE AND FIRE AND HOW THEY CARRY THEMSELVES AND HOW THEY RELATE TO THE CITIZENS IS TO TRULY, TRULY A BLESSING.
