[2.A. Northwest ISD 2021 Bond Election Update - Dr. Ryder Warren, Superintendent]

PUBLIC SCHOOLS IN THE STATE OF TEXAS. IT WAS IT WAS TODAY, THIS TIME LAST YEAR. AND SO THAT ALSO A COUPLE OF WEEKS LATER THAN THAT. HE MADE THE ANNOUNCEMENT THAT WE WOULD HAVE

[00:05:02]

WHEN I FIRST MET YOU GUYS FIVE YEARS AGO WHEN I THE FIRST TIME I CAME TO SEE THE NORTH LAKE CITY COUNCIL. WE WERE FOLLOWING 42. NO. EXCUSE ME. 43 HOUSING DEVELOPMENTS UP THERE. YOU HAVE 92. THAT'S HOW MUCH WE HAVE GROWN IN THE LAST STUFF JUST THE LAST FIVE YEARS. WE ARE ONE OF THE FASTEST GROWING SCHOOL DISTRICTS DOWN THE STATE OF TEXAS THAT JUST AS THE CHALLENGE IS WHAT WE'RE DOING, BUT YOU CAN SEE WE'RE VERY POPULAR, AND IT'S NOT JUST GROWTH IN ONE SPECIFIC PART OF THE DISTRICT. IT'S PRETTY MUCH ALL OVER NOW. I TRIED TO EXPLAIN THIS LAST YEAR TO A LOT OF FOLKS AND THE LAW HAS REMAINED UNCHANGED THAT THE LAW THAT WAS ENACTED THIS LAST LEGISLATIVE SESSION ACTUALLY TOOK CONTROL OF HOW TO ORGANIZE BONDS AWAY FROM LOCAL SCHOOL DISTRICT'S. WE ARE ACTUALLY MANDATED TO SELECT FOUR GROUPS FOR OUR BOND WE BUY, BUY BUY. LEGISLATIVE MANDATE. WE HAVE TO SEPARATE ALL TEXAS SCHOOL DISHES HAVE TO SEPARATE BONDS INTO FOUR DIFFERENT GROUPS. PROPOSITIONS A THROUGH D PROPOSITION A IS ALWAYS GONNA BE THE LARGE ONE BECAUSE THAT'S TRULY ARE BUILDINGS BUILDINGS IF WE'RE IF WE'RE NEED TO BUILD NEW BUILDINGS, FIX UP BUILDINGS, IMPROVED BUILDINGS, EXPAND BUILDINGS THAT'S PROPERTY. BROUGHT BE IF WE NEED TO DO ANY KIND OF WORK TO TWO STADIUMS. WE HAVE TWO STADIUMS. WE HAVE THE BIG STATE OF UNITED STATES STADIUM. WE HAVE TEXAN STADIUM THAT WAS BUILT ABOUT 70 YEARS AGO THAT NEEDS SOME UPKEEP. AND SO THAT HAS TO BE MY BY LAW. IT HAS TO BE IN PROPOSITION B PROPOSITION. SEE IF WE NEED TO DO WORK ON EXISTING TENNIS COURTS OR TRACKS OR FOOTBALL FIELDS AT EXISTING CAMPUSES. OR IF WE NEED TO BUILD NEW ONES IF WE IF WE ARE IN PROPOSITION A. IF WE'RE ABLE TO BUILD A NEW CAMPUS, WE CAN'T BUILD THE RECREATIONAL FACILITIES THAT ARE ASSOCIATED WITH THOSE CAMPUSES AND LESS PROPOSITION TO SEE HIS PAST. ALL THAT GOES IN PROPHECY. AND IN ANY OF THE TECHNOLOGY THAT WE HAVE FOUR KIDS OR STAFF GROWS IN PROPERTY. THOSE ARE THE MANDATED GROUPS SO IN YOUR PACKETS, AND I WON'T SPEND A HUGE AMOUNT OF TIME ON THIS. AND IN THE LAST YOU HAVE SPECIFIC QUESTIONS ON THIS. BUT PROPOSITION A IS BROKEN DOWN TOL YOU GROWTH CAMPUSES. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS EQUITY, JUST MAKING SURE THAT OUR KIDS ARE IN EQUITABLE ENVIRONMENTS NO MATTER WHERE THEY LIVE IN THE DISTRICT SAFETY, SECURITY AND TECHNOLOGY, SO THOSE ARE EXAMPLES OF NEW SCHOOLS GO AHEAD. SO OUR NEW CAPSULES WE ARE WE ARE ASKING FOR IN THIS BOND, OUR TWO BRAND NEW ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS AGAIN, WE WILL OPEN UP BERKSHIRE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. L ME SCHOOL NUMBER 20. THE BOND OF 2017 HAS ONE MORE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, INNIT ELEMENTARY SCHOOL 21, THEN 22 23 WILL BE IN THIS POND ON AGAIN. IF YOU CAN SEE YOUR NAME IS ON THIS LIST OF AREAS THAT WE WOULD NEED TO CONSIDER FOR ANOTHER ELEMENTARY SCHOOL JUST AGAIN BECAUSE OF THE GROWTH OF THE GROWTH THAT WE'RE SEEING IN THE STUDENT ENROLLMENT THAT WE'RE SEEING THERE. AND THEN ELEMENTARY 23. MIDDLE SCHOOL NUMBER SEVEN. WE HAVE A LOT OF ISSUES WITH

[00:10:01]

WE NEED ALL OF OUR MIDDLE SCHOOLS TO BE A 1200 STUDENTS CAPACITY ON AND AGAIN. PACK HAS BEEN SEVERAL DIFFERENT THINGS THAT HAD HAS BEEN SEVERAL DIFFERENT INCARNATIONS FOR US AS A SCHOOL DISTRICT AND SO BUILDING AND WE ACTUALLY HAVE ENOUGH ROOM RIGHT THERE ON THE SIDE TO BUILD A NEW PACK MIDDLE SCHOOL OR FOR THAT FACILITY. AND THEN SEVERAL THINGS ABOUT NORTHWEST HIGH SCHOOL. WE HAVE EXPANDED EATING HIGH SCHOOL TO 3200 SKINS. WE HAVE EXPANDED BYRON NELSON TO 3200 STUDENTS. THE BOND ASKED VOTERS TO APPROVE THE IDEA TO EXPAND NORTHWEST TO 30 YEARS. STUDENTS KIDS AND NORTHWEST IS OUR OLDEST. COMPREHENSIVE ABSOLUTELY JUST IT NEEDS A LOT OF ATTENTION. HE'S TLC TO BE ABLE TO DO WHAT WE NEED TO DO ON THAT. THERE'S THE THERE'S THE MAP OF WHAT KIND OF NORTHWEST WOULD LOOK INTO AFTER WE'VE EXPANDED IT AND THE END OF THE WORK HOME, MAN. UM. YOU ALL HAVE HEARD ME TALK ENOUGH THAT I COULD REALLY DO A GOOD JOB DROPPING ABOUT WHAT LEGISLATIVE DECISIONS COME OUT OF AUSTIN, BUT I WILL TELL YOU ONE THING, ONE OF THE BEST THINGS THEY DID LAST LEGISLATIVE SESSION IS THEY MANDATED FULL DAY PRE CASE FOR EVERY DISTRICT IN THE STATE OF TEXAS. RESEARCH SHOWS IF WE CAN GET KIDS WHO QUALIFY FOR PRE K IF WE COULD GET THEM IN HIS FOUR YEAR OLDS INTO A FULL DAY, PRE K, IT REALLY DOES HAVE TO, ESPECIALLY THEIR LITERACY SKILLS, ESPECIALLY THEIR READING SKILLS. THAT DOES A GREAT JOB FOR THEM. WE JUST NEED TO MAKE SPACE AVAILABLE TO BE ABLE TO THAT. SO THIS IS A MANDATE FROM THE STATE THAT WE PROVIDE THESE AND SO THOSE SCHOOLS THERE, THE NEWER SCHOOLS THAT WE BUILD ALREADY HAVE THE PRE K SPACE AND THOSE OF THE SCHOOL THAT WE WILL NEED TO BE. WELL, PRE K CLASSROOMS SO WE COULD GET THE KIDS WHO EITHER QUALIFY FOR YOUR PARENTS AND FAMILIES WHO WANT THEM IN THE PROGRAM SO THAT WE COULDN'T PUT THEM IN THOSE FULL DAY THREE CASE. AND THERE'S PROPOSITIONS B, C AND D AGAIN THE RENOVATIONS. MOST OF THAT THAT FUNDING WILL BE RENOVATIONS ON TEXAN STATING, WHICH IS THE SMALLER STADIUM RIGHT THERE ACROSS THE STREET FROM A NICE T STADIUM AGAIN. IT'S 70 YEARS OLD, AND WE JUST NEED TO DO SOME WORK ON THERE TO MAKE SURE THAT MOST OF THE MOST OF THE MIDDLE SCHOOL KIDS PLAY FOOTBALL THERE. CORRECT CHRIS, WE HAVE THAT'S OUR DISTRICT. TRACK FACILITY. A LOT OF OUR PE KIDS WORK OUT ON THOSE KIND OF THINGS THAT JUST NEEDS A LITTLE TLC. PROPOSITION SEE, MOSTLY THAT IS FOR BUILDING MIDDLE SCHOOL NUMBER SEVEN IF MIDDLE SCHOOL'S NUMBER SEVEN GETS APPROVED IN PROPOSITION, A BUILDING THE FACILITIES FOR THOSE PROGRAMS WILL BE FROM PROPOSITION C. AND THEN ABOUT $19 MILLION TO MAKE SURE THAT ALL OF OUR KIDS HAVE HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY. THEY NEED THIS. THIS IS A GREAT TIME I REALIZED TOW DEMONSTRATE THE NEED FOR GOOD TECHNOLOGY BECAUSE A LOT OF OUR KIDS HAVE BEEN USING AND LEANING ON THEIR TECHNOLOGY FOR THEIR ACADEMIC SERVICES THIS YEAR. UM, YOU ALL KNOW THIS. I KNOW YOU KNOW THIS, BUT I EXPLAINED THAT YOU KNOW, THE SCHOOL DISTRICT'S MOST OF US HAVE TWO DIFFERENT TAX RATES. THE MINNOW IS OUR DAY TO DAY MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS. THAT'S ARE THOSE AIR FOR OUR DAILY NEEDS. MOST OF THAT PACE FOR SALARIES OF THE I N S IF A DISTRICT HAS SO BOMBS IF THE DISTRICT HAS DEBT, THE INTERESTING SINKING IS WHAT PAYS FOR THAT SOME OF THOSE BONDS. THE 42 CENTS. AND YOU KNOW, I WAS VERY PROUD OF REPORT LAST TIME AND I'M I'M PROBABLY FOR THAT. IF. THE BOND PASSES. WE WON'T HAVE TO EFFECT THE NS TAX RATE. IT WILL STILL BE 42 CENTS, WHETHER DON PASSES OR IF IT FAILS, WE WILL STILL HAVE A 42 CENTS I IN THIS RACE ARE THE STRENGTH OF OUR CONSTRUCTION ARE ASSESSED VALUES. WE ARE IN A POSITION WHERE WE CAN FUND $745 MILLION WITHOUT A RISE IN THE TAX RATE YOU WILL SEE ON THE GO AHEAD DREW. YOU WILL SEE THERE'S A

[00:15:02]

WHAT WHAT THE TAX RATE WAS THE 45 CENT TAX RATE. WE WERE ABLE TO LOWER IT BECAUSE WE HAD REFUND SOME BUNS. WE HAD SAVED SOME SOME FUNDS ON THE INTEREST. AND WE WERE ABLE TO LOWER THREE SINCE THIS LAST YEAR. THE EVEN OLD RATE HAS BEEN HAS BEEN LOWERED FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS BECAUSE OF THE NEW TEXAS SCHOOL FINANCE ALL HOUSE BILL THREE, WHICH WAS A SCHOOL FINANCE BILL, BUT IT WAS ALSO A TAXPAYER BUILDINGS WELL TO TRY TO GET. THE STATE TO PAY A LITTLE BIT MORE OF A PUBLIC SCHOOL FINANCES RATHER THAN PERSONAL PROPERTY OWNERS. SO YOU'RE GOING TO SEE THAT RATE GO DOWN AS WELL. SO IF THE BOND PASSES, YOU WILL PROBABLY SEE THE TAX RATE STILL BE LOWER THAN WHAT IT IS THIS YEAR BECAUSE HOUSE BILL THREE WILL CONTINUE THE LORD THE WOMEN OUTSIDE 42 CENTS WILL STATE AS 42 CENTS ON THERE ON THEIR SIDE.

SO OUR TAXPAYERS WILL PROBABLY SEE A LOWER TAX RATE EVEN IF THE BOND PASSES THIS NEXT YEAR.

ALL RIGHT, DREW AGAIN. I KNOW NOBODY FALLS IN THIS CATEGORY HERE, 65 OR OLDER, BUT IF YOU IF YOU DON'T ANYBODY PASSAGE OF ALL OF SCHOOL BONDS DOES NOT EFFECT. IF THE IF THE FOLKS HAVE DONE THEIR PAPERWORK WITH THE APPRAISAL DISTRICT IF THEY HAVE NOT DONE JUST A LOT OF WORK, REFURBISHING OR ADDING TO THEIR HOMES, THEY HAVE ALREADY ESTABLISHED THEIR CEILING ON ON SCHOOL, TEXAS. I JUST WANNA COMPLIMENT OUR SCHOOL BOARD WAVE REALLY DONE A REALLY GOOD JOB ABOARD HIS BANDAGE, THE BOND THE DEBT THAT WE DO HAVE IN THE DISTRICT VERY WELL. WE HAVE COMPLETED THREE BOND REFUNDINGS EVEN SINCE LAST YEAR. A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO. WE'VE SAVED OVER $50 MILLION IN SAVINGS ON THAT. YOU KNOW, WE PEOPLE ASK, YOU KNOW HOW TO GET THE TAX RATES STAY THE SAME WHEN YOU'RE SELLING $745 MILLION OF BONDS. WE DON'T ALL SELL IT AT THE SAME TIME WE MAY BE BEING DO MAYBE 101 $150 MILLION A YEAR ENDING ON WHEN WE NEED TO PAY THE CONTRACTORS. BUT ALL OF THAT MONEY IS NEVER SOLD ALL AT ONE TIME, AND THAT'S WHY WE CAN CONTROL THE TAX RATE AS WE'VE DONE WITH OUR THAT. AND THEN YOU KNOW, WE'VE WE'VE ALWAYS HAD VERY, VERY GOOD RATINGS OF BOOTY THAT FINCH HAS ALWAYS DONE A REALLY GOOD JOB AND GIVING US THOSE GOOD RATINGS BECAUSE OF THE JOB WE'VE DONE SO VERY APPRECIATIVE OF THE LEADERSHIP OF THE DISTRICT FROM THE FROM THE BOARD'S PERSPECTIVE. ALL RIGHT.

THAT IS THE ACTUAL LANGUAGE. WE'RE SHOWING FOLKS FOR THE ACTUAL LANGUAGE OF THE BALLOTS.

AND THIS IS THE ONE THING THAT IN FACT, I WAS IN AUSTIN ON TUESDAY AND TALKING TO THEM JUST ABOUT BOND AND BALLOT LANGUAGE. BY THE LAW THAT THERE WERE TWO BIG CHANGES IN ELECTION LAWS FOR SCHOOL DISTRICT'S. WE HAVE TO SEPARATE OUR BOND IN THOSE FOUR CATEGORIES, AND WE HAVE TO PUT ON EVERYTHING THAT WE DO THAT THIS IS A PROPERTY TAX INCREASE, EVEN IF A DISTRICT KNOWS THROUGH THEIR FINANCIAL ADVISORS AND ANALYSIS THAT THE TAX RATE WILL NOT BE AFFECTED BY A BOND PASSAGE. WE HAVE TO PLACE ON THERE. THIS IS A PROPERTY TAX INTEREST SO. AND I'M NOT SAYING IF WE VOTE, SO WHEN WE GO TO VOTE THIS NEXT TIME, YOU WILL SEE FOUR DIFFERENT PROPOSITIONS FOR THE DISTRICT AND YOU'LL SEE THE AMOUNT OF MONEY ASSOCIATED WITH THAT PROBLEM, AND THEN YOU'LL SEE THAT THAT SENTENCE YOU KNOW THAT. AND I'M JUST WE'RE JUST TRYING TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYONE UNDERSTANDS THAT WE WILL BE ADDING THAT ANYTIME WE SELL BONDS WERE ADDING DEBT TO THE DISTRICT. THAT IS ABSOLUTELY TRUE STATEMENT. BUT OUR TAX RATE WOULD NOT BE AFFECTED BY THE PASSAGE OF THIS. ALL RIGHT. SO YOU ALL KNOW THIS, BUT IF WE'RE MAKING SURE ALL OF OUR NEW FOLKS TO THE DISTRICT ARE KNOW THAT THEY HAVE UNTIL MAY 1ST TO REGISTER TO VOTE IF THEY'RE NEW. MY WIFE AND I WILL BE IN LINE, PROBABLY THE FIRST COUPLE OF DAYS OF EARLY VOTING. WE ALWAYS DO SO APRIL 19TH STARTS EARLY VOTING AND THEN THE DAY IS SATURDAY THIS YEAR, MAY 1ST. AND THEN WHAT I'VE GIVEN TO DREW. I'VE GIVEN IT DREW A LOT OF DIFFERENT AH, A LOT OF DIFFERENT THAN SLIDES TO SHOW YOU THE IF YOU WANT TO DIVE INTO ANY SPECIFIC OF OUR PROJECTS, THIS WEBSITE HAS EXCELLENT. INFORMATION YOU COULD LOOK JUST EVERYTHING FROM THE FINANCES OF IT TO THE ACTUAL PROJECTS AND FOR CAMPUS AND THEN YOU HAVE EVERY EVERY CAMPUS THAT IS AFFECTED FROM NORTH LIKE YOU HAVE THOSE LIVES THERE FOR YOU AND TELLS YOU EXACTLY WHAT WILL HAPPEN WITH YOUR SCHOOLS AND THE SCHOOLS THAT YOUR CHILDREN GO TO. SO THAT IS WE REALLY APPRECIATE AGAIN. THE OPPORTUNITIES TO BE HERE WE ARE KIND OF FANNING OUT ACROSS THE DISTRICT ACROSS OUR COMMUNITIES TO MAKE SURE WE'RE DOING THE BEST THAT WE CAN TONTO INFORM. AND UH, I'LL SAY THIS BEFORE TAKING YOUR QUESTIONS AS A CZAR ALWAYS DO

[00:20:04]

ALWAYS WE'RE JUST A PHONE CALL AWAY. DREW DIDN'T CALL ANY TIME. Y'ALL CAN CALL ANY TIME AND WE WILL SUPPORT ANY WAY WE CAN. WE, UH. THIS LEGISLATIVE SESSION IS GOING TO BE VERY DIFFERENT. JUST THE WAY THEY'RE GONNA DO BUSINESS THIS YEAR. BUT IF I CAN TAKE ANY KIND OF MESSAGE IS THAT ON BEHALF OF Y'ALL OR INVEST PERSON I WILL COMMIT TO DO SO. I REALLY DO.

TOGETHER YOU MADE HER YOUR OUTDOOR LEARNING CENTER AVAILABLE FOR CHARTER COMMISSION. WE WERE THERE FOR FIVE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS AND BEAUTIFUL FACILITY AND GREATLY APPRECIATED ANYTIME YOU NEED IT. ALL RIGHT, SO COUNSEL ON. RESIDENTS HERE FOR ME A LOT, SO I'M GONNA GO STRAIGHT TO THE COUNCIL. BUT THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR COMING TONIGHT.

SHARING INFORMATION. APPRECIATE THAT, AND WE WANT TO GET THIS INFORMATION OUT TO VOTERS. AND SO THEY COULD MAKE INFORMED DECISIONS. COUNSEL THE FLOOR IS YOURS. I'M LOOKING AT DANNY, BECAUSE I KNOW DANNY'S GONNA HAVE SOMETHING FOR ME. THANK YOU, MR SIMPSON. HUH? BOYS.

YOUR FAITH BRINGS GOOD NEWS. PROBABLY THING YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO CONVINCE US IS THAT TAXES AREN'T GOING TO BE RAISED. AND I BELIEVE YOU THAT THEY AREN'T GOING TO BE. BUT HOW MUCH COULD THEY BE RAISED THE ABSOLUTE HARD CAP THAT THE STATE PUTS ON THIS FOR THAT, ON THIS SIDE OF THE OF THE TAX RATE IS 50 CENTS. THAT'S THAT THAT IS A SIZE IN THE TEXAS SCHOOL DISTRICT CAN GO ON THAT THAT'S KIND OF ALWAYS. THAT'S ALWAYS OUR CHALLENGE, ESPECIALLY IF WE'RE FAST GROWTH. IF WE DO HAVE TO AFFECT THE TAX RATE, YOU HAVE TO SAY PEOPLE BELOW THAT 57 CAP. UM, SO RIGHT NOW AGAIN WITH HOUSE BILL THREE, AND THAT WAS THE NEW SCHOOL FINANCE SYSTEM, BUT NOW FUNDS TEXAS PUBLIC SCHOOLS. THEY REALLY TURN THAT INTO A DOUBLE A DUAL ROLE BILL. IT'S A SCHOOL FINANCE BILL IT FUN SCHOOL DISTRICT'S, BUT IT ALSO WAS A TAXPAYER RELIEF BILL BECAUSE. THE TEXAS LEGISLATURE FOR YEAR AND I'M TALKING ABOUT FOR 30 YEARS NEVER FOUND A WAY TO FUND PUBLIC SCHOOLS RATHER THAN OFF THE BACKS OF PROPERTY OWNERS TAKES, YOU KNOW WE'LL NEVER HAVE A INCOME TAX IN TEXAS THAT Z EVEN IN OUR IN OUR STATE. UH CONSTITUTION WILL NEVER HAVE AN INCOME TAX. AND SO THEY COULD. THE SALES TAX WAS KIND OF ALL OVER THE PLACE. THEY COULDN'T THEY COULDN'T DEPEND ON THE SALES TAX. SO THIS GO AROUND THE PROPERTY TAXES WERE DEFINITELY IN THE CROSS HAIR, SO YOU'RE GOING TO SEE A DROP IN THE MINNOW TEXT RATE ARE OPERATIONAL. AND THERE, HOPEFULLY GOING TO COME BACK AND FEEL THAT WITHIN WITH STATE COFFERS, AND THEN THE NSX AGAIN BECAUSE OF OUR VALUES, WE WILL NOT GO OVER 42 CENTS WITH THIS WITH THIS ONE AND AGAIN. WE DON'T SEE. YOU NEVER CAN NEVER PROMISE THIS, BUT WE DON'T SEE OUR ECONOMIC PROGRESS CHANGING FOR A WHILE. I MEAN, YOU THE GROWTH PATTERN HAS BEEN THERE TOO LONG, AND WE HAVE WAY TOO MUCH CAPACITY FOR GROWTH IN THIS IN THE DISTRICT. SO WE FEEL THIS IS A VERY GOOD TIME FOR US TO BE ABLE TO DO SOME VERY SIGNIFICANT THINGS WERE ALREADY A YEAR BEHIND AND THAT WAS THE BIG ISSUE FOR US WHEN WE GET BEHIND IN GROWTH WITH THE NUMBER OF KIDS THAT WE HAVEN'T YOU KNOW. 1600 KIDS ARE GONNA COME IN JUST NEXT YEAR, AND SO WE GET BEHIND HIM. GIRLFRIEND QUICKLY. IT TAKES US A LITTLE BIT TO CATCH BACK UP. SO EVEN IF YOU DID HAVE TO RAISE IT, YOU COULDN'T RAISE THAT MUCH ANYWAY. CORRECT AND THEN AGAIN, THAT WAS THAT WAS WHAT I WAS GONNA SAY THE CHALLENGES EVERYTHING THAT YOU HAVE TO DO. YOU'VE GOT TO BE UNDER THAT CAP. YOU CANNOT.

THERE'S NO PROVISION IN LAW THAT ALLOWS US TO GO OVER THAT 50 CENT COUNT. WE WERE WITHIN A NICKEL. YOU KNOW THIS LAST BOND IN 2017. WE GOT WITHIN A NICKEL AGAIN BECAUSE I THINK WE BASICALLY GOOD DECISION REFINANCING SOME BONDS. AND THEN BECAUSE OF OUR EVEN DURING THE TIME OF CODED ARE OUR VALUES CONTINUE TO CONTINUE TO RISE. WE WERE ABLE TO ACTUALLY DROP THAT SIDE OF THE TAX RATE. UH, T GIVE A LITTLE BIT MORE RELIEF. THAT'S A LOT OF FACTORS THAT MADE US NOT VOTE FOR IT LAST TIME. BUT I THINK ONE OF WARS THAT PEOPLE WEREN'T CONVINCED THAT THE RATE WASN'T GONNA BE RAISED. ANYWAY, WE'RE GONNA TRY TO DO A MUCH BETTER JOB OF TELLING FOLKS AT IT AND SAY IT MORE THAN ONE TIME. I MEAN, WE WERE I DON'T THINK I DID A GREAT JOB OF REALLY GETTING AROUND AS MUCH AS I SHOULD HAVE. AND, OF COURSE, THE NOVEMBER ELECTION WE DIDN'T COUNT ON 56,000 VOTERS, EITHER, SO WE REALLY NEEDED A BETTER JOB THAN WE'VE EVER DONE. AND I DON'T THINK I DID THAT. SO WE'RE GONNA DO OUR VERY BEST TO REALLY GET AROUND AND TRY TO MAKE SURE AND SURE ENOUGH EVIDENCE AS WE CAN THAT WE'VE DONE OUR DUE DILIGENCE AND WE KNOW WE'RE NOT GONNA HAVE TO RAISE THAT RATE BECAUSE OF BECAUSE OF THIS BOND. THANKS. YOU'RE WELCOME. THANK YOU. GIVING GUIDANCE ON SEMINOLE RATE ASSED. FAR AS WHAT. UM WHAT THAT MIGHT BE GUESSING RIGHT NOW. WE'RE ABOUT 91.

[00:25:03]

COUNCIL FORCE TWO YEARS. I HAVEN'T BEEN QUESTIONS. UM IF YOU GO BACK TO YOUR PRE K CLASSROOM EDITIONS, YOU SAID THAT IT'S STATE MANDATED. IS IT ALSO STATE FUNDED, OR DO YOU GET FEDERAL FUNDS? WE GET. WE GET FEDERAL FUNDING FOR THE PROGRAM ITSELF, NOT FROM THE BUILDINGS. OKAY, WELL, FOR WHAT THE WORK IS GONNA BE HERE FOR THAT, SO AND THE STATE KNEW THAT SO THEY ACTUALLY DIDN'T MANDATE IT FOR THE VERY NEXT YEAR, THEY GAVE US A GRACE PERIOD OF UP TO 6 TO 8 YEARS TO GET EVERYTHING IN PLACE FOR THAT WE WOULD LIKE TO GET IT DONE BY 2022. MAYBE 2023 TO START OFF IN THAT. WE HAVE TO. WE HAD TO START AT LEAST ONE CLASSROOM THIS YEAR, AND WE STARTED TO WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO ADD ANOTHER ONE THE NEXT COUPLE OF YEARS BEFORE WE GET ALL OF THEM OFF THE GROUND. IS THIS MOSTLY FOR NON ENGLISH SPEAKING STUDENTS WHO COME INTO OUR DISTRICT, MOSTLY THE QUALIFYING IS ECONOMIC STATUS, SOCIALLY ECONOMICS AND ONE OF OUR ONE OF OUR GROWING DEMOGRAPHICS ARE FAMILIES WHO ARE JUST LIVING EITHER AT OR MAYBE A LITTLE BIT BELOW THE POVERTY LEVEL. IT'S MOSTLY FOR THOSE FOLKS. AND THEN HERE'S ANOTHER QUESTION THAT I HAVE, AND THIS IS FROM YOUR PRESENTATION FROM OCTOBER.

WELL I'M GOING TO SHOW IT TO YOU BECAUSE I HAD SO MANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS, AND IT WAS DISCUSSED ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND THAT SORT OF THING, SO I'M GONNA SHOW YOU. SLIDE FROM YOUR BOND WEBSITE, WHICH IS, I THINK VERY SIMILAR TO, IF NOT THE SAME, AND YOU'RE WELCOME TO HAVE THAT ON BIT'S IT READ. THERE WILL BE NO TAX RATE INCREASE IF THE BOND ELECTION PASSES. THE NEW STATE LAW REQUIRES THAT BOND ELECTIONS INCLUDE THIS STATEMENT. THIS IS A PROPERTY TAX INCREASE, EVEN THOUGH TRUSTEES ACTUALLY LOWERED THE RATE THIS YEAR, BUT WE KNOW THERE'S TWO COMPONENTS TO THIS TAX AND THEN FROM YOUR OCTOBER 8TH PRESENTATION TO NORTH LAKE, THIS WAS. WHAT YOU HAD IN THE COUNCIL PACKET, AND ALL I DID WAS DRAW GREEN BOX AROUND IT. BUT IF YOU CAN SEE THERE, THERE IS AN INCREASE IN EVERYBODY WAS ASKING ABOUT THAT. SO MAYBE IF YOU COULD ADDRESS THAT, MAYBE WE COULD BETTER UNDERSTAND. THAT'S PROBABLY WHERE I DIDN'T DO A GREAT JOB EXPLAINING UM. IF YOU REMEMBER OCTOBER WE HAD TWO DIFFERENT ELECTIONS ON THE NOVEMBER BALLOT. WE HAD THE BOND, AND WE HAD SOMETHING CALLED A V A. T R E L A VOTER APPROVAL TAX, RIGHT? OKAY SO WE GO BACK TO THE TO THE SLIDE THAT HAS ALL THE TAX RATE HISTORY. YES, SIR. YEAH, RIGHT THERE. OKAY SO YOU CAN SEE ON THAT. HOMEOWNERS US. WE PRETTY MUCH FOR THE LAST 10 YEARS. WE'VE BEEN USED TO PLAYING A DOLLAR FOR OUR FOR THE SCHOOL'S IMMINENT TAX RATE. THAT'S WHAT IT HAS BEEN FOR A LONG TIME. IT WENT FROM A DOLLAR TO $2.4 AND 2010. AND THEN THAT'S WHAT IT SPINS THAT UNTIL HOUSE BILL THREE TOOK EFFECT. IT WAS A DOLLAR FOR OKAY. SO HERE'S HERE'S THE SCHOOL DISTRICT'S CHALLENGE, AND I'M VERY GLAD YOU ASKED THIS BECAUSE. WE CALLED A VOTER APPROVAL TAX RATE BECAUSE WE WERE ASKING PERMISSION TO GO BACK UP TO THE DOLLAR. FOUR. I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE BOND. THE BOND IS A TOTAL SEPARATE ENTITY FOR THIS, OKAY? HOUSE BILL THREE WAS AN OMNIBUS BILL THAT TOTALLY REWROTE THE FINANCE LAWS OF TEXAS PUBLIC SCHOOLS, SO WE ARE BEING FUNDED DIFFERENTLY DIFFERENT FORMULAS. DEPENDING ON THE KIDS PROGRAMS. ALL THE THINGS THAT WE DO IN THE DISTRICT WERE BEING FUNDED DIFFERENTLY. MOST. TEXAS SCHOOL DISTRICT'S MADE OUT PRETTY GOOD. THEY'RE EITHER GETTING A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN THEY WHAT THEY HAD ON THEM. MAYBE SOME OF THEM MAY BE GETTING A LOT MORE FUNDING, DEPENDING ON WHAT KIND OF PUBLISHING THANK YOU. FAST ROLLS DISTRICTS. NORTHWEST ICED TEA IS ONE OF 87. ASKED GROWTH DISTRICT WERE DESIGNATED BY THE STATE. FASTBALLS BUSINESS DID NOT MAKE OUT WELL AT ALL WAY HAVE LOST ABOUT $10 MILLION OF REVENUE PER YEAR. WE USED TO HAVE TO BUILD OUR BUDGET THAT WE DON'T HAVE NOW. SO INSTEAD OF MAKING ALL THE CUTS THAT BECAUSE I THINK I TRIED TO EXPLAIN TO YOU THE CUTS THAT WE WERE GONNA HAVE TO MAKE AND THE THINGS THAT WE WERE GONNA HAVE TO DO. BEFORE WE WERE GONNA DO THAT. WE WERE GOING TO TRY TO ASK PERMISSION OF THE ELECTORATE TO GIVE US BACK. JUST GO BACK TO THE DOLLAR FOR WE WEREN'T ASKING FOR MORE MONEY. WE JUST WANTED TO GO BACK TO WHAT WE ARE ALL USED TO ANYWAY, AND THE ANSWER WAS NO SO THAT DOLLAR 49 WAS ACTUALLY ABOUT PART OF THOSE 13 PENNIES WE WERE GONNA ASK FOR FROM THE V A. T. R. REID. WE LOOKED THE GUINNESS TAX RATE, JUST LIKE WE SAID WE DID AND IT AND IT WILL

[00:30:02]

[2.B. Home Rule Charter Transition - Presiding Judge Contract]

[00:35:06]

BUT, YEAH, IT WOULD REALLY MEAN A DELAY IN IN THOSE DOCKETS UNTIL YOU COULD GET A JUDGE APPOINTED. HOW MANY CITIES HAVE YOU SEEN THAT I'VE EVER NOT BEEN ABLE TO ACQUIRE ONE WITH A REASONABLE RATE. I I'VE NEVER SEEN THAT. SO AND JUST JUST FOR THE COUNCIL IN THE AUDIENCE.

THIS IS VERY TYPICAL FOR MUNICIPALITIES THAT GO TO HOME RULE TO TAKE THIS STEP AND THE CHARTER COMMISSION. AND THE CHARGERS. THEY REVIEWED IN SAMPLES. THEY WERE PRETTY. THEY WERE ALL CONSISTENT THAT THEY NEEDED TO BE LICENSED ATTORNEY. SO THIS IS A THIS IS JUST ONE

[00:40:01]

AND THEN THERE'S A CONSTRUCTION SALES TAX THAT I. I TOLD YOU ABOUT. WE GET THE CDC. CDC, SO SEX BACK TO THE.

TO THE CONSTRUCTION PROJECT, BUT THE GENERAL FUND GETS NEW REVENUE. AND THEN FINALLY, HERE'S OUR INFRASTRUCTURE, PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE PARTICIPATION. THE SO THE COVERED EXTENSION. IS. THIS WAS HOW MUCH THE EXTENSION OF THE CULVERT COSTS. AND WE WERE KEPT OUT IN 300,000, BUT THE TOTAL PROJECT FOR ALL THE STUFF THAT WENT INTO ALLIANCE NORTHPORT WAS OVER FIVE MILLION IN THE. 80 CCD SEES CONTRIBUTED 650,000 AND THEN FOR AN EARLIER DEVELOPMENT, NORTHPORT 35. WHICH IS WEST CO. AND TEMPLE AND SOME OTHER BUSINESSES, THE CDC CDC PARTICIPATED 500,000 AND THE TOTAL COST OF FAMILY IMPROVEMENTS WAS OVER A MILLION. AND PAUSE AGAIN FOR QUESTIONS, YES. COUNCIL FOUR YEARS. PUBLIC INDENTS INFRASTRUCTURE IT COST THE PUBLIC 1.1 MILLION TOTAL AND THE TOTAL COST WAS 6.6 MILLION.

SO WHERE DID OTHER 5.5 MILLION COME FROM? THAT WAS PAID FOR AND FINANCED BY THE DEVELOPER OF THE PROJECT. SO WE GOT SIX PLUS MILLION DOLLARS WORTH OF WORK DONE FOR A MILLION DOLLARS. YES SIR. AND A LOT OF THESE PROJECTS WERE TOE TO MAKE SURE THAT ROAD WAS COMPLETED OR THE CULVERT WAS EXTENDED. SO A LOT OF TIMES. THIS IS KIND OF. ICING ON THE CAKE OR LET'S GO AHEAD AND FINISH FINISH THAT ROAD AFTER THERE MAY BE A GAP OF WHAT THE DEVELOPERS RESPONSIBLE FOR AND SO WE WOULD PARTNER WITH THEM, BUT. IN ESSENCE, THEEIGHTIES CDC PAID 1.1 AND THE TOTAL VALUE OF THE ENTIRE PROJECT WAS THESE TWO PROJECTS OR THESE TWO INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS WERE 6.7 MILLION. COUPLE QUICK QUESTIONS ON THE JOB. GRANT UM, DID WE EVER FIGURE OUT HOW MANY OF THOSE PEOPLE. IT WORKED FOR. THESE BUSINESSES LIVE IN NORTH LIKE OR WE FUNDING JOBS FOR PEOPLE OUTSIDE OF NORTH LAKE. UH, VERY FEW OR IN NORTHLAKE.

MOST OF THESE JOBS ARE. UM LABOR AND. BASED ON THEIR SALARIES. BE HARD FOR THEM TO AFFORD. TO LIVE IN NORTH LIKE THERE ARE SOME APARTMENT COMMUNITIES THAT SOME OF THEM

[01:00:03]

TO SEE IF THEY LIVE IN NORTH LAKE OR NOT. WE'VE BEEN TOLD THAT THERE ARE SOME THAT LIVE IN THE APARTMENT, BUT EVEN THE APARTMENTS ARE A PRETTY HIGH PRICE POINT FOR AH, LOT OF THESE POSITIONS. HEY, MY OTHER QUESTION IS ON THE PIONEER GRANTS OR ANY OF THESE. FIRST OF ALL, YOU SAY IT'S A LUMP SUM UPFRONT. GRANT. UM. WHEN YOU SAY IT'S OVER FIVE YEARS? WHAT HAPPENS IF THEY DON'T FULFILL THE FIVE YEARS THAT THEY HAVE TO PAY BACK THE REMAINDER OF WHATEVER, HOWEVER MANY YEARS AIR LEFT SO. I HAD MY EXAMPLE I GAVE EARLIER IS IF THEY MAKE IT THREE YEARS, THEY STILL OWE US TWO YEARS SO THEY HAVE TO PAY BACK TO FIFTH OF THAT ORIGINAL GRANT. HAVE WE HAD ANY FAILURES? NO, MA'AM. DO ANY OF THESE GRANT RECIPIENTS OR ANY OF THEM THE SAME OWNERS? ARE THEY ALL DIFFERENT OWNERS? I BELIEVE THEY'RE ALL DIFFERENT OWNERS. I KNOW THAT ROSES. WAS LOOKING AT A NEW CONCEPT, BUT WE HAVEN'T SEEN ANYTHING FROM THEM. BUT YES, I LIKED I'M. FEEL RELATIVELY COMPLEX, CONFIDENT THAT THERE NO. NO, NO, KNOW MULTIPLE ARE NO OWNERS IT OWN MULTIPLE BUSINESSES ON THIS LIST. APPRECIATE THE UPDATE. I DID ASK THE QUESTION, BUT I SURE APPRECIATE THE COMPREHENSIVE UPDATE. NATHAN CAN I ASK YOU ONE WAS THE LAST TIME WE ACTUALLY PASSED THE JOB, GRANT? IS IT 18? FOR WESCO. GOD, IT'S ALL THESE AIR. THEY'RE PAID OUT IN SUBSEQUENT YEARS, BUT THE LAST ONE THAT WAS PASSED WAS 18. YEAH. THANK YOU. YEAH. MAKE SURE WE GET YOU ON THE MICROPHONE TO, UM. SO I'LL REPEAT FOR OUR VIEWING AUDIENCE THAT. MOST OF THESE FARMER BROTHERS WAS 2017 WEST.

COHEN HEMPEL, WHERE 2018. AND, UM, AS HIS NATHAN MENTIONED, TEMPLE HAD A THREE YEAR DELAY.

SINCE THEN, THE IDIOCY, CDC AND CDC HAVE NOT. UH, BEEN. HAVE NOT MOVED FORWARD WITH ANY JOB GRANTS SO BASE WE FOLLOW THE LEAD OF THE BOARD MEMBERS AND SO WE'VE NOT BROUGHT ANY JOB GRANTS FORWARD. SINCE THEN. SO THAT HAS BEEN THE CURRENT POLICY OF THE DCC. SO THERE IS MAYBE WHAT YOU'RE ALLUDING TO MAYOR THESE AIR, KIND OF, UH, PAST LEGACY. MM. GREAT. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. ANY FINAL QUESTIONS, COUNSELORS. WE'RE GOOD. VILLAINS ITEM E CAPITAL

[2.E. Capital Improvement Program Update]

THANK YOU, SIR. THIS. THIS WAS ONE THAT I REQUESTED WANTED TO. WE'VE GOT A LOT GOING ON. SO I WANT TO KEEP YOU GUYS IN THE LOOP, AND WE'RE ABOUT TO BEGIN THE BUDGET PROCESS COMING UP IN OVER THE SUMMER. SO WANT TO MAKE THIES AND THERE WAS A LOT OF INTEREST IN A LOT OF QUESTIONS, SO FIRST TYPICALLY, WHAT WE DO IS. WE'RE DID ALL THE MONEY COME FROM, AND SO WE HAVE WE HAVE. TO CEO ISSUANCES 2016 PRIMARILY ROADS, 2018 PRIMARILY WATER. WE'VE HAD SOME RECENT TAX NOTES ISSUED FOR SOME ROADS AND A PARTNERSHIP FORWARD THE KATHERINE BRANCH PROJECTS. WE'VE USED THEM COST RECOVERY FEE'S THAT REPAID THROUGH HARVEST DEVELOPMENT FOR THEIR FAIR SHARE OF THE WATER SYSTEM. AND WE'VE WE'VE BEEN ASSESSING. AND COLLECTING, RODE HIM ROAD, SEWER AND WATER IMPACT FEES, AND WE'RE GOING TO UTILIZE THOSE AS WELL. SO THIS IS THE. RESOURCE IS FIRST GROUP WILL TALK ABOUT HIS ROADWAYS, AND WE'LL GO THROUGH THERE.

[01:05:07]

THAT'S JUST. ONE OF THOSE PAINS OF IMPROVEMENT, PAINS OF CONSTRUCTION. SO HERE'S JUST A BRIEF PROJECT SCOPE. WE'RE OBVIOUSLY IN IN CONSTRUCTION STATUS OF THAT. UM. WE HAVE NEXT GROUP IS WHAT WE CALL ROAD FAILURES. THE FIRST IS CANYON FALLS ROAD FAILURES AND WE'LL BEGIN THAT PROJECT. THIS IS GOING TO BE. PRETTY COMPLEX PROJECT. AS YOU SEE, THERE ARE A NUMBER OF HOUSES ON THIS STREET. WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO DO ONE SIDE OF THE ROAD AT THE AT A TIME. WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO GO DOWN TO THE SEWER LINE AND RE COMPACT ALL THAT AREA, SO WE'LL WORK BEEN AND THE CONTRACTOR HAVE DEVELOPED A, UM, PHASING APPROACH SO THAT EVERYBODY CAN.

GET HOME GET TO THEIR HOME ON WELL WELL OVER, COMMUNICATE WITH THEM. COMMUNITY ON THIS.

WE'LL NEED TO THE OTHER ROAD FAILURES WERE AT DILLON HURT WAY THERE IS. WATER WAS PUMPING IN THIS AREA THAT THE PAVEMENT WENT WASN'T. PERSPEX AND SO THIS WILL BE THIS WILL BE RIPPED UP AND REPLACED. AND SO THERE'S. BRIEFING ON THAT WE HAVE AWARDED BIDS. COUNSEL AWARDED THE BIDS AND WE HOPE THAT, UH MOBILIZE AND GET STARTED HERE SHORTLY AS WELL.

SO WE'RE GONNA HAVE A LOT OF DIRT FLYING HERE OVER THE SUMMER. UM A PROJECT THAT WAS PART OF THE TEXANS IN OUR IMPACT WORLD IMPACT FEES IS FLORENCE FROM. IT SAYS ROBES AND RANCH ROAD, BUT THAT'S ACTUALLY YARBOROUGH AND STRAIGHTER. IT IS TRAITOR AS YOU HEAD AND SO THIS THIS MAP HAS PUT WITH WEST UP. SO YOU WANNA TILT YOUR HEAD? BUT YOU KNOW, HERE'S THE HERE'S THE STRAIGHTER CURVE THAT CUTS THROUGH THE BOTTOM OF STARTUPS RANCH AND THEN THIS IS A SECTION OF FLORENCE. UM. THIS WAS WHAT I FIRST GOT HERE. THIS IS A GRAVEL ROAD AND THE COUNTY CAME IN AND PAVED IT, BUT THEY DIDN'T GET ANY ADDITIONAL RIGHT AWAY. THEY DIDN'T IMPROVE THE DRAINAGE SOME, YOU KNOW IF YOU DRIVEN THROUGH THIS AREA, THERE'S TREES RIGHT ON THE ROAD. DOESN'T MAKE FOR A GREAT ROAD SURFACE. AND SO IT'S SUFFERED OVER THE YEARS AND IT'S WE'RE GOING TO COME IN. WE'RE GONNA NEED TO ACQUIRE QUITE A BIT OF RIGHT OF WAY. IMPROVE THE DRAINAGE BUT CULVERTS UNDER THE ROAD TO GET THE WATER OFF THE ROAD. AND SO THAT'S GONNA BE. GOOD $0.6 MILLION PROJECT. WE ARE ALREADY KIND OF RUNNING IN TO SOME. SOME COST CHALLENGES, WILL WILL WILL WILL WORK THROUGH THOSE AND WE'LL GET WITH COUNSELING COMMUNICATE AREAS THAT, UM, THAT WE CAN SAVE OR. POSSIBLY CHANGE THE SCOPE THROUGH REAL QUICK QUESTION ON THAT WHILE WE'RE ON IT REAL FAST. YES IF YOU DON'T MIND ME AND OF COURSE, PLEASE THE WIDTH OF THE ROT AWAY. WHAT IS THAT, RIGHT THERE? YOU KNOW? WHAT ARE WE. YOUR FIGURE OUT. RANGES BETWEEN 40TH. IN YOUR LANE WITS.

PROPOSED LANGUAGE 12 FT. WHAT ARE THEY CURRENTLY 11? SO WE'RE. RIGHT, WIDEN THE LANES A LITTLE BIT, BUT THE PROBLEM IS. GETTING THE WATER OFF AND GETTING THE DRAINAGE CHANNELS.

BUT. SO THE ULTIMATE WILL BE 60 FT FOR AND THAT'S OUR TYPICAL RIGHT AWAY FOR A RURAL. WE'RE

[01:10:07]

IT'S THE ADDITIONAL ROT AWAY BEYOND THE FENCE. SO. RIGHT, SO BASICALLY, THE PRESCRIPTIVE PART IS OURS OR IT'S OWNED. IT'S WELL. IT'S EXISTING. WE WILL PAY THE DISCOUNTED OR, UH UM I DON'T WANNA SAY DISCOUNTED RATE BUT LOWER RATE THEN FEE SIMPLE, BUT IT WILL NOW BE OUR RIGHT AWAY. SO MOST COUNTY ROADS THEY FOLLOWED OLD FARM ROAD GRAVEL ROADS, AND THEY DID IMPROVEMENTS ACTUALLY ON PEOPLE'S PROPERTY, BUT IT WAS. IT WAS ALWAYS A THOROUGHFARE.

AND SO THE PROPERTY OWNER COULDN'T STOP TRAFFIC, BUT THEY STILL OWN TO THE CENTER LINE OF THE ROAD. UH WE ATTEMPT TO GET THE RIGHT AWAY, SO IT'S KNOWN AND THE PROPERTY OWNER KNOWS THAT THAT IS THE RIGHT AWAY NOW AND. PART OF THEIR PART OF THEIR PROPERTY. SO. INFORMATION START US RANGE. NONE OF THAT HAS TO BE ACQUIRED. THAT'S ALREADY BEEN IT'S ALREADY BEEN PLANTED TO THE TOWN. SO YOU'RE SAYING IT WILL ALL COME FROM THE WEST SIDE OF THE ROAD? NOT ALL OF IT. THE. ANYTHING SOUTH OF STARTUPS RANCH ON THE EAST. THERE'S 34 FROM THREE PROPERTIES ON THE EAST SIDE THAT WILL REQUIRE RIGHT AWAY ACQUISITION. THEN THE REST WILL COME FROM THE WEST SIDE. ARE YOU SAYING THERE'S AN EQUAL AMOUNT FROM THE CENTER LINE? YOU'RE TAKING ME COME OUT OF PROPERTY ON BOTH SIDES, BUT FROM FIRST ARTISTRY, AND ALL OF THOSE PROPERTIES ALREADY BEEN DEDICATED THESE THREE PROPERTIES DOWN HERE ON THE SOUTH END. WE'RE NOT PART OF STARTUPS, RANCH AND. NONE OF THESE ON THE WEST SIDE AS COUNSELOR HARMLESS, SAYING NONE OF THESE WERE PART OF ENTITIES HAVE PLANTED OR DEDICATED WRITER BOY. SO WE'RE NOT CHANGING THE ALIGNMENT AT ALL. OR. YES, WE ARE. THAT'S TO DISCUSS, BUT, UM BASICALLY, WE'RE FOLLOWING THIS AIRLINE WHERE WE CAN. OFFSET AND 30 FT.

ON EACH SIDE, SIR. THANK YOU. AND PROBABLY MUCH. THE SAME ANSWERS IS THOUGHT. ROAD. UM.

WE WILL NEED TO GET RIGHT AWAY. I THINK BEEN ON, EVEN THOUGH BRIAN'S PLACE WAS PLANTED. I DIDN'T GET ENOUGH RIGHT AWAY, SO WE ARE GOING TO NEED TO GET A LITTLE BIT MORE RIGHT AWAY FROM THESE PLANTED LOTS AND THEN THE THOUGHT FARM. IT WAS NOT PLANNED IT SO WE'LL NEED TO GET. RIGHT AWAY FROM THAT PROPERTY OWNER AND A LITTLE CORNER OF THE NOX ARES PROPERTY. AND THAT IS A 2.4. MILLION DOLLAR PROJECT. AND THEN ONTO OUR UTILITY PROJECTS.

HERE'S A LIST OF THOSE WE DO HAVE SOME. PROGRESS OBVIOUSLY ON THE NORTH ELEVATOR STORIES TANK IN LINE, WE HOPE TO HAVE THAT AND SERVICE BY THE SUMMER. ON BEN, WE'VE BEGUN THE PEDESTAL IS HAS BEEN CONSTRUCTED ON THE SOUTH. ALL THE STORAGE TANK. AND. WE HAVE BEGUN. THE BINGHAM FIRE PROTECTION LINE AND WILL SOON BEGIN ON THE SCHOBER FIRE PROTECTION LINE. UM, BUT I'LL JUST GO THROUGH THESE PROJECTS. HERE'S WHERE THE. WATER TOWER IS THE NORTH WATER TERRORIST LOCATED YEARS OLD JUSTIN ROAD. HERE'S. BRIAN'S PLACE, PURVIEW, FARMS AND HARVEST AT HOMES. THAT'S A $3.6 MILLION PROJECT OUT OF THE 2018. CEOS. HERE IS THE SOUTH ELEVATOR STORAGE TANK. IT'S AT THE CORNER. WE ACTUALLY PURCHASED SOME PROPERTY FROM THEM FROM RANCOR, AND IT'S SITUATED IN THE MIDDLE OF OUR WAREHOUSE DISTRICT. UM. THAT'S A $2.75 MILLION PROJECT. THIS IS THE SOUTH PUMP STATION AND GROUND STORAGE TANK COUNCIL RECENTLY AWARDED THIS BID WE WERE ABLE TO USING. FUNDS FROM THE HARVEST COST RECOVERY FEE, APPLYING THEM TO THE NORTH, USING SOME OF THAT SAVINGS TO THE SOUTH WERE ABLE TO UP SIZE.

THE. GROUND STORAGE TANK TO A MILLION, WHICH WHICH HELPS US WITH OUR FOOTPRINT AND. HELPS

[01:15:03]

WHEN WE GO THROUGH HERE, WE ACTUALLY BORE A SERVICE LINE UNDER THE ROAD, SO EVERY ADDRESS HAS ADDRESS. HOMEOWNER HAS A EMPTY METER BOX. AND IF THEY SO CHOOSE FOR WATER SERVICE. THEY'RE NOT OBLIGATED IF THEY SO CHOOSE THAT WERE SET UP TOE. GET THEM WATER SERVICE.

NOW THEY'LL STILL HAVE TO WORK WITH THE PLUMBER. GET THAT LINE TO THEIR HOUSE. BUT AND SO, THOUGH. BUT THE PURPOSE OF THIS WAS TO PUT FIRE HYDRANTS AND PROVIDE FIRE PROTECTION FOR THESE FIVE ACRE LAWS. AND. BOTH OF THOSE PROJECTS TOGETHER WAS AROUND 300,000. THE NORTH AREA PUMP STATION. SOME UPGRADES BELIEVE WE'RE ADDING ANOTHER PUMP AND IMPROVING THE SKATE OF SYSTEM ON THAT WAS. THAT'S UNDER, UH, THAT'S BEGUN. WE HAVEN'T STARTED YET. BUT WE'RE IN THE CONSTRUCTION PHASE. AND THAT WAS IT WAS ONLY 110,000. ONLY AND THEN, UH, ASSED PART OF AH, LARGER PARTNERSHIP WITH DEVELOPERS OF THE BEGAN IN TRACT AND THE FOSTER TRACK.

WE'RE. WE'RE GONNA PARTNER WITH THEM ON WATER IMPROVEMENTS. SO CURRENTLY OUR WATER SYSTEM ENDS HERE. A DEALER IN OUR WAY, AND THEY'RE 35 W. FRONTAGE ROAD THAT SHOULD BE 35 W. AND WE'LL BRING THAT ACROSS AND PROVIDE WATER TO THESE TWO PROJECTS WERE THE TOWN IS BASICALLY PAYING THE OVERSIZE NG. OF THIS LINE, THE DEVELOPERS, YOU'RE PAYING THEIR SHARE THEIR PROPORTIONAL SHARE THAT LINE. IN ADDITION, WE'RE GETTING THE LINE FURTHER TO THE WEST AS WE.

DEVELOP THIS AREA NORTH OF TEXAS MOTOR SPEEDWAY. AND THAT. THAT ASPECT IS 1.9. THE TOTAL IMPROVEMENTS WILL BE 3.8. SO IT ZAH ABOUT. IT'S ABOUT 50 50 WITH THE TOWN IN THE DEVELOPERS. AND THEN FINALLY, WE HAVE THE CAPTAIN BRANDT SEWER IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS THAT RECTANGLE ACTUALLY. MAYBE A LITTLE BIT LOWER, BUT IT'S GOING TO BE A WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT. WE'VE BEGUN. THE APPLICATION. WITH T. C. Q YOU CAN'T JUST SAY WE WANNA WASTE WATER TREATMENT PLANT. YOU ACTUALLY HAVE TO DESIGN IT. SO WE'VE DESIGNED THE PLANT AND WE'RE READY TO SUBMIT THAT TO C C. Q. AND THEN. THAT WILL BE A TOWN COST, BUT WE'LL ALSO HAVE A COST SHARING ON THE SEWER LINE WHERE THE TOWN WILL PAY FOR THE OVERSIZE NG AND THE DEVELOPERS WILL PAY FOR THEIR PROPORTIONAL SHARE. WE HAVE A HIGHER PERCENTAGE OF THE TOTAL PROJECT IS 4.9 BECAUSE THE OVERSIZE NG. OF THIS LINE IS PRETTY SIGNIFICANT AT THIS LEVEL, BECAUSE, REMEMBER, THIS LINE HAS IS GONNA ULTIMATELY GO ALL THE WAY TO THE WEST OF 1 56.

SO THAT'S WHY WE HAVE A LARGER PROPORTIONAL SHARE OF THAT COST. SO THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE AND APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY UPDATE YOU ON OUR CAPITAL PROJECTS. THANK YOU, MR CORN COUNSELORS YOUR QUESTIONS AT THIS TIME. AT YOUR CONVENIENCE. COULD WE MAYBE GET ENOUGH DATA ON THE HOTEL CONFERENCE CENTER? NOT NOW, BUT IN THE FUTURE. AND THAT'S NOT THE TOTAL. DISTANCE OF THE KATHERINE BRANCH, SEWER AND WATER, RIGHT? AREN'T THEY GONNA HAVE TO GO FURTHER? WEST POINT? YES, SIR. OUR MASTER PLAN HAS THEM. WATER GOING TO 1, 56 AND

[01:20:02]

[2.F. Winter Storm Relief Options and Financial Impact]

BUT THESE THINGS, SOMETIMES WITH THE SLUDGE AND STUFF THEY TAKE A WHILE TO BUILD, SO WE'LL CONTINUE THAT AND MONITOR THAT. BUT THAT'S NOT THAT WASN'T ON THE SLIDE. I JUST REMEMBER THAT? AND THEN KIND OF SOME OF THE THINGS YOU'VE ASKED US TO INVESTIGATE IS SO. EVERYBODY DRIPPED THERE WATER IN FEBRUARY THEY COULD ON EVERYBODY ON THE NORTH SIDE. OUR PUBLIC WORKS.

GUYS DIDN'T AWESOME JOB KEEPING US KEEPING WATER PRESSURE. THEY WERE RUNNING AROUND AND MAKING SURE THE GENERATORS HAD DIESEL IN THE DIESEL DIDN'T JAIL SO JUST AGAIN. WE TALKED ABOUT THIS LAST MEETING, BUT JUST INCREDIBLE. AND I'VE TALKED TO A NUMBER OF MANAGERS. THEY'RE VERY ENVIOUS THAT WE WERE ABLE TO KEEP IT GOING OF OTHER CITIES, BUT. EVERYBODY DRIPPED A LOT OF WATER TO PROTECT THEIR PIPES AND SO ON, ON AVERAGE ABOUT 90% OF THE CUSTOMERS, THEIR USE INCREASED BY ABOUT 2000 GALLONS FOR THAT. WE CHARGE $4 PER 1000 GALLONS, SO THAT'S ROUGHLY $8. REALLY IT'S WE'RE TALKING ABOUT 2000 GALLONS, BUT WE COSTED IT OUT AND SO. A PROPOSAL IS TO HAVE A ONE TIME WATER DRIP CREDIT OF $8 TO COVER THAT $2000 ESTIMATE THAT THE PEOPLE USED TO DRIP AND WE ESTIMATE THAT THAT. ONE TIME REVENUE LOST. THE TOWN IS HIS 30 30,400 HER TO THE UTILITY FUND, AND THAT'LL SHOW UP AS A CREDIT ON EVERYBODY'S NEXT UTILITY BILL, AND THIS IS. IF YOUR WATER CUSTOMER REGARDLESS OF YOUR SUGAR, CUSTOMER OR NOT. IS THAT AN OPTION THAT THEY CAN DO WITHOUT A FORMAL ACTION ITEM? IS THIS

[01:25:10]

THAT EVENTS DIDN'T COST HIM HER WATER PERSPECTIVE. NOW WE DO KNOW THIS IS FOR 90% OF CUSTOMERS. THERE'S A FEW CUSTOMERS WHO USED A LOT MORE, BUT BEING ABLE TO GO IN AND ASK HER TEAM HOW MUCH WAS USED, IT WOULD BE AN UNFAIR ATTEMPTS AND VERY DIFFICULT. SO IN ORDER TO BE FAIR AND EQUITABLE, THE ONLY WAY WE CAN DO THIS IS BY A FLAT AMOUNT. PER CUSTOMER, SO. UP TO YOU. COUNCIL MEMBERS IF YOU WANTED TO TAKE THIS UP OR NOT, UM, IT'S NOT A TYPICAL THERE.

SEVERAL CITIES THAT AIR LOOKING AT SOMETHING LIKE THIS BECAUSE IT'S A ONE TIME EVENT. WE CAN.

WE CAN HANDLE THIS. FROM A BUDGETARY STANDPOINT, IT PUTS OFF, YOU KNOW, RESTORING OUR BALANCE A MONTH. YOU KNOW, OR OR OR SOMETHING TO THAT EFFECT, BUT IT DOES. YOU KNOW IT IS. IT IS A TOKEN. IN ADDITION TO THE OTHER THINGS WE DID, WHICH, AS A REMINDER WERE THE PERMITS AND THE WINNER AVERAGING, WHICH IS A MORE SIGNIFICANT SAVINGS, SO IT'S UP TO YOU, BUT THIS IS ONE OF THE ITEMS THAT WAS ASKED OF US TO BRING BACK AS FAR AS ANALYSIS OF WHAT WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO DO. I JUST NEED YOUR COMMENTS AND DIRECTION COUNCIL. THANK YOU. I THINK WE OUGHT TO DO IT. I AGREE. RIGHT? I THINK IT'S AN ACT OF GOD. AND IT'S $8. AND YOU SAID THAT OUR WATER FUND IS AT RISK. I THINK PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THAT. I THINK IT'S A IT'S A RATHER LARGE HIT TO THE TOWN AND A RATHER SMALL HIT HER RESIDENT. MM. WOULD SAY NO. I'D SAY THAT YOU KNOW, WE GAVE HIM THE WATER HEATER AND WE DROP THE MONTH OF FEBRUARY AND THE AVERAGING MM. I THINK THAT'S A GOOD COMPROMISE. OKAY. THANK YOU, MA'AM. THE LAST ONE. RIGHT? HE'S USING SOME WATER.

ALL RIGHT, LET'S LET'S JUST GIVE HIM ONE SECOND. APPRECIATE THE FEEDBACK COUNSELORS. LET'S JUST GET TO BE. WORTH COUNSELOR. AND THEN WE ALL WILL GO ON. WHAT WAS THE FOURTH ITEM THAT WE WERE? WE NEEDED TO ANALYZE ALL THE SEWER CAP RATE. THAT WAS SOMETHING I HAD THROWN OUT THERE. WE DO NOT HAVE THE ANALYSIS DONE ON THAT. IT Z CHALLENGING STAFF LITTLE BIT TO FIGURE THAT OUT. BUT THAT'S ALL GOOD. SO, UH, WE WERE MR SIMPSON. WE WERE TAKING A LOOK AT THE DRIP CREDIT AND JUST ASKING EACH OF THE COUNCIL MEMBERS. IF THEY WERE, THEY WERE GOOD ON OFFERING THAT OR NOT, EH? SO FAR, WE HAVE. TWO FOR YES. AND ONE FOR NO. I'M JUST CURIOUS WHAT YOUR THOUGHTS ARE ON IT. GOOD. ALL RIGHT. APPRECIATE THE FEEDBACK COUNSELORS. AND THE CONSIDERATION OF ALL THE THINGS THAT GO INTO IT, YOU KNOW, BOUNCING, OUR BUDGET IS IMPORTANT AND APPRECIATE COUNCIL ARTEM IN YOUR COMMENTS AS WELL. BUT WITH THAT DIRECTION DO YOU HAVE ENOUGH TO WORK ON THIS CORNER? RIGHT? THANK YOU. STAFF FOR ALL THE EXTRA WORK ON THE ANALYSIS AND THE WORK IT TAKES TO ACTUALLY IMPLEMENT SOME OF THESE. I KNOW IT'S NOT EASY WITH NEARLY 5000 ACCOUNTS TO GET THIS RIGHT THE COMMUNICATION AS WELL. I'M CERTAIN WE'LL GET A FEW PHONE CALLS ASKING WHAT THIS IS AND BUT IT Z GOOD THING TO DO. SO THANK YOU FOR THAT. I HAVE A QUICK QUESTION THE FOLLOW UP TO WHAT YOU JUST SAID. IF YOU DON'T MIND THAT SMELL. WHAT IS IT GONNA COST US IN TERMS OF STAFF TIME TO DO ALL OF THIS? WELL, NOTHING ADDITIONAL. THERE'S NO THERE'S NO VARIABLE COST TO IT. UM IT'S TIME SUNK ITS. WE'RE ALREADY PAYING THE STAFF TO DO THEIR JOBS. IT'S JUST THAT THEY'RE WORKING A LITTLE HARDER TO GET IT DONE. THERE'S OBVIOUSLY A LITTLE BIT OF DISPLACEMENT, BUT THEY'RE GETTING ALL THE RESPONSIBILITIES DONE.

OTHERWISE THERE'S PROBABLY A LITTLE BIT MORE PROJECT WORK. THEY COULD GET DONE IF THEY

[01:30:04]

THAT AMOUNT OF TIME. YEAH I WAS GONNA SAY 1000 100,000. OK, SO A LITTLE BIT CLOSER TO 40,000 TOTAL COST THEM. RIGHT? THANK YOU APPRECIATE THE CLARIFICATION. ANY OF ANYTHING ELSE ON THIS. GOOD. ALL RIGHT. WE ARE THROUGH OUR BRIEFING ITEMS FOR TONIGHT. I KNOW WE TAKE A LOT OF TIME ON THESE, BUT I BELIEVE THEY SET US UP FOR, UM. GOOD CONVERSATIONS IN THE FUTURE AND INFORMED DECISIONS AND THAT'S THAT'S WHAT WE'RE ABOUT. SO AT THIS

[3. Public Input]

THEY'RE GONNA PAY. IF THERE IF THE WATER SYSTEM IS SET UP THE WAY THE COUNCIL TRIED TO MAKE IT WHERE IT PAYS FOR ITSELF. AND IT'S NOT REALLY A PROFIT CENTER. IT'S JUST MADE TO BREAK EVEN AND PROVIDE A SERVICE FOR THE TOWN. WE'RE ADDING EXTRA EXPENSES TO THAT SYSTEM THAT PEOPLE ARE GONNA END UP PAYING EVENTUALLY. SO IT JUST DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE. THIS ISN'T SOME $8 ISN'T GOING TO HELP ANYBODY. IF ANYBODY IN OUR TOWN IS. $8 FROM BANKRUPTCY HAVEN'T CALLED ME. I'LL GET IN THE $8, YOU KNOW? YOU KNOW, IT JUST SEEMS LIKE A LOT OF RED TAPE AND STUFF TO MESS WITH AN EXTRA MONEY SPENT. RIGHT? IS REALLY OF NO BENEFIT TO ANYBODY.

THANKS. SO POINT TAKEN. THEBES POINT ABOUT IT AFFECTING THE RATE THERE WON'T BE ANY RATE PROCESS HAS TO COME THROUGH A FULL STUDY. SO THAT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN. THERE'S IT CERTAINLY DOES TRIM OFF OF YEARS FROM NOW. ABILITY TO DO THAT ONE EXTRA PROJECT. THIS IS ALSO HALF OF THIS, AT LEAST HAS TO GO FOR THE WHOLESALE COST THE WATER. S SO THERE'S A LITTLE BIT IN THERE WHERE THERE'S PROFIT IN THIS, SO WE'RE NOT PROFITING, BUT WE'RE ALSO ONLY PAYING OUT A CERTAIN AMOUNT FOR THE WHOLESALE WATER. SO THE DIFFERENCE IN THE TWO WE'VE ALREADY COVERED OUR COSTS FOR THE. STAFF IN THE NORMAL USAGE, SO THIS EXTRA USAGE WE DON'T NEED THAT PIECE THIS TIME, SO HALF OF THAT WE WOULD NOT NEED IT'S ACTUALLY EXCESS REVENUE.

BUT HALF OF IT? YES THE 20,000 OF IT CERTAINLY WOULD BE. NEW COST TO THE WATER FUND. AND SO THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE. IT'S A LITTLE BIT LESS, BUT YOUR POINT'S WELL, MATE. KID. MERIT.

AS EXPLAINED EARLIER. THE HARVEST COST RECOVERY FEE IS A PAYMENT MADE BY. UM HARVEST ACTUALLY THE BELMONT FRESH WORDS BY DISTRICT. AND SO IT'S NOT A SOUND. THE GENERAL FUND AMOUNT SO THERE WERE COST OVERRUNS FOR SOME OVER WATER PROJECTS. BUT WE DIDN'T USE GENERAL FUND FOR THAT. WE USE SOME OTHER FUNDS DEDICATED FOR WATER IMPROVEMENTS. GREAT.

THANK YOU FOR THAT. IS ANYONE ELSE WE SHOULD SPEAK THIS EVENING. ALL RIGHT. WE'LL CLOSE PUBLIC COMMENT THEN. 7. 11 PM WILL START A REGULAR AGENDA. I GOT A COUPLE ITEMS FOR CONSENT

ENCOURAGE TO SOMETHING THAT SAYS ENCOURAGE, AND WE'LL PRACTICE WITH THE PUBLIC. BUT OTHERWISE, THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE. THAT'S WHAT I NEED. RIGHT. THANK YOU. UM SO. YOU MAY HAVE ALSO SEEN IN THE UPDATES TO COME FROM DENTON COUNTY. WE'VE WE'VE BEEN. WE HAVEN'T BEEN UNAFFECTED BY COVERT BY ANY STRETCH. WE ARE PERCENTAGES OF INFECTIONS AND CONFIRMED CASES HAVE BEEN IN LINE WITH CITIES ARE SIZE AND DENSITY PROPORTIONS TO THE POPULATION AND SO FORTH, AND WE'RE CERTAINLY NOT EXEMPT FROM FROM THE EFFECTS OF IT. WE HAVE HAD A CONFIRMED DEATH AND NORTH LAKE. OF SOMEONE IN THEIR EIGHTIES. THAT IS ACTUALLY ALL THE DATA I HAVE AT THIS MOMENT FROM THE COUNTY JUST WHAT WAS REPORTED ON THE PUBLIC. THE PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENTS DAY TODAY. THAT'S HOW WE FOUND OUT ABOUT IT. SO WE DON'T HAVE ANY OTHER INFORMATION, BUT. OBVIOUSLY OUR HEARTS GO OUT TO THE FAMILY. I DON'T KNOW WHERE IN THE TOWN.

IT'S INDIVIDUAL LIVED. I DON'T KNOW IF WE HAVE FAMILY IN THE TOWN OR IN THE HOUSEHOLD. I DON'T HAVE ANY OF THAT DATA BUT OBVIOUSLY OUR CONCERN IS WITH THE FAMILY AND OBVIOUSLY WE WANT FOLKS TOE. QUICKLY GET PAST THIS AND RECOVER AND IF WE DO STILL HAVE CASES IN THE TOWN, THE CASES ARE DOWN ABOUT 50% FROM THE PEAK, AND THEY DO HAVE A LONG TAIL ON THEM. SO I DO EXPECT THAT THAT NUMBER OF 60 SOME THAT'S BEEN REPORTED THE LAST DAY OR TWO. IT WAS PROBABLY A LITTLE SOUTH OF THAT, BUT I'M NO DOCTOR, SO WE CAN'T SAY FOR CERTAIN. I'M NOT SURE THE DOCTORS CAN'T EITHER. BUT IT IS. AH, IT IS A DIRECTIONAL. INDICATOR FOR US, AND IT HAS BEEN GOING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION FOR SEVERAL WEEKS. VERY POSITIVELY. AND SO WE'RE HOPING THAT THIS IS THE LAST PEAK OF THIS, WHICH WAS SEEING TWO SIGNIFICANT PEAKS IN THE LAST YEAR. AND HOPEFULLY THIS ONE IS GONNA GONNA GO ALL THE WAY THAT ALL THE WAY TO ZERO SO, UM, I WANTED TO GIVE YOU THAT UPDATE.
