[2.A. Briefing - Public Works Departmental Update]

UM AS YOU KNOW, PUBLIC WORKS, WE VARIETY OF THINGS. WATER WASTEWATER. STORM RIGHT AWAY BUILDING MAINTENANCE. UH SO WE'RE PRETTY BUSY. ALL YEAR ROUND IS REALLY NO SLOW TIME FOR US, SO WE KIND OF GET RIGHT INTO IT. UM, PHYSICAL YEAR. 22 WE DID JUST SHY OF 5000. TOTAL WORK ORDERS. SECOND QUARTER IS USUALLY, UH, A LITTLE BIT SLOWER PAVING KIND OF SLOWS DOWN. THAT TIME OF YEAR, BUT ARE WATER AND WASTEWATER. KINDA CONTINUES ON CONTINUES ON HOW WE HAVE TO

[00:05:01]

TOTAL METER SETS FOR FISCAL YEAR 22 737 OUT OF OUR WATER MAINTENANCE TEST. THAT'S 43% OF TOTAL WORK ORDERS JUST FOR WATER MAINTENANCE, SO THAT ALMOST TAKES UP HALF OF OUR TIME PER YEAR, SITTING METERS, REPLACING METERS THAT GET DAMAGED OR THAT THEY'RE NOT WORKING CORRECTLY.

SO WE DO SPEND A LOT OF TIME AND A LOT OF FUNDING FOR, UH METER INSTALLATIONS AND REPLACEMENTS.

AND AS YOU CAN SEE, SINCE FISCAL YEAR, 2019 THE INCREASE IN, UH TOTAL CONNECTIONS FROM PHYSICAL YEAR 19 TO 2035% INCREASE IN CONNECTIONS. PHYSICAL YOU'RE 21 36% INCREASE AND FISCAL YEAR 20 TO 14. IT WAS A LITTLE SLOWER. PHYSICAL YEAR 22 AS FAR AS, UH, TOTAL CONNECTIONS, WATER SERVICES FOR RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL. HMM AND WATER PRODUCTION, AS YOU KNOW, GOES UP YEARLY WITH THE GROWTH THAT WE HAVE. UM FROM PHYSICAL YEAR. 21 TO 22. WE HAD A 50% INCREASED JUST IN IN ONE YEAR AND FROM 2019 TO 22. IT WAS 100 AND 25% INCREASE IN PRODUCTION OUT OF OUR SYSTEM, SO THAT'S A LOT OF WATER JUST IN A FEW YEARS' TIME , AND WE'RE PROBABLY LOOKING AT MAYBE 2025% INCREASE OVER THIS NEXT YEAR, 23. SYSTEM MONITORING . THESE ARE KIND OF JUST, UH, MONITORING THAT WE DO THROUGHOUT DAILY ROUNDS WEEKLY QUARTERLY. UM THESE ARE ALL REGULATED BY TC Q TEXAS COMMISSION ON ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY. AND THE E P A. SO WE BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES. MAKE SURE WE'RE DELIVERING QUALITY WATER TO OUR CUSTOMERS. SO THERE'S A LOT OF A LOT OF TESTING INVOLVED DAILY THAT WE'RE THAT WE'RE DOING. SEWER LINE CLEANING. UM. WE KIND OF WERE A LITTLE UNDER THIS YEAR OR FISCAL YEAR. 22 THEN WHERE I WANTED TO BE. WE HAD UH, TRUCK DOWN FOR A WHILE AND OUR LEAD OPERATOR ON THAT SHATTERED HIS WRIST OUT ON THE JOB SITE, SO HE WAS ON LIKE BEAUTY FOR QUITE A WHILE, BUT THEY'RE MOVING ALONG PRETTY GOOD SO FAR THIS YEAR, SO WE SHOULD HIT OUR MILE MARK ON THAT AT THE END OF THIS PHYSICAL YEAR. ROAD MAINTENANCE. WITH ALL THE NEW ROADS OR GRAVEL ROADS ARE KIND OF GOING AWAY SLOWLY BUT SURELY WHICH I LIKE. THE GRAVEL ROADS ARE A LOT OF MAINTENANCE TO THOSE YOU CAN SEE THE RAP RECYCLED ASPHALT. UH, ONE OF OUR BIG ITEMS THAT WE USE ON A GRAVEL ROADS IS WITH ALL THE TRUCK TRAFFIC AND THE CONSTRUCTION GOING ON, ESPECIALLY IN MOAKLEY AND HARMISON. WE PUT A LOT OF MATERIAL OUT EVERY YEAR, AND WE CONTINUE TO DO PATCHING. UM AS NEEDED. EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE ROADS, SEWER LINES, WATER LINES, THESE CONTINUALLY GO UP YEARLY GRAVEL ROAD. IS DWINDLING DOWN A LITTLE BIT. SO NEXT FEW YEARS, WE SHOULD, UH SEE THAT? HOPEFULLY GET TO ZERO MARK.

WE'RE HOPING TRAINING EVERY WELL , NOT EVERYONE ABOUT 80% OF STAFF RIGHT NOW, THAT'S UH HAS A WATER OR WASTEWATER CERTIFICATION. UM ARE ENTRY LEVEL POSITIONS. WE START THEM OUT WITH A D WATER LICENSE, AND THAT'S KIND OF THE ENTRY LEVEL, SO WE WANT TO MAKE SURE EVERY EVERYBODY KNOWS THE BASICS WHAT THEY'RE DOING SO THAT WAY. UM THEY KNOW WHAT WHEN THEY'RE OUT THERE, THEY CAN MAKE GOOD DECISIONS BASED ON KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE, SO WE GET THEM SOME BASIC TRAINING IN A VARIETY OF, UH FACTORS IN WATER AND WASTEWATER. THIS YEAR. FEBRUARY 2022 ANDERSON. THE SLIDE. FEBRUARY, 22. FEDERAL HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATION STARTED ALL CDO

[00:10:09]

SO UM, IS SAVING, SAVING US A LOT OF MONEY AND TIME INVOLVED, SENDING THOSE PEOPLE DOWN FOR A WEEK AT A TIME BEING TRAINED SO WE CAN KIND OF BREAK THAT UP INTO TWO UP TO THREE HOURS. TIME SLOTS, YOU KNOW, WEEKLY AND KIND OF DO IT OVER A PERIOD OF TIME, SO UM STATS BEEN REALLY GREAT ABOUT GETTING THIS PROGRAM KIND OF, UH, HEADED OFF. SO WE'RE WE'RE THANKFUL FOR THAT WE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY FOR THAT. UM CARTOGRAPHIC. THAT'S THE NEW WORK ORDER ASSET MANAGEMENT PROGRAM THAT YOU APPROVED FOR FISCAL YEAR 22. WE'RE IN FULL OPERATION ON THAT. WE HAVE TRANSFERRED ALL OUR DATA THAT WE HAD IN OUR PREVIOUS WORK ORDER SYSTEM AND KIND OF GOING OVER THOSE ITEMS. MAKE SURE WE DIDN'T MISS ANYTHING. WE SPENT A LOT OF HOURS WITH CARDIO GRAPH GETTING THAT DATA OVER GOING OVER. CHARGED CONDITION ASSESSMENTS. YOU CAN DO THAT FOR ROAD FIRE HYDRANTS, WATER, WHATEVER TYPE OF ASSET YOU HAVE IN THE SYSTEM. UM, YOU CAN UM, KIND OF SCORE THAT AND SEE WHERE YOU'RE AT FOR REPLACEMENT. IF YOU WANT TO DO A PROGRAM FIVE YEARS LATER, IT WILL GIVE YOU A COST ON THAT FOR FIVE YEARS OUT, UM YOU CAN DO CHARGE GRAPHS. PP IS YOUR KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS THAT IT IT'S GOT A LOT OF GOOD DATA ON THERE FOR US TO TRACK COST INVENTORY? THAT'S JUST KIND OF A BASIC DASHBOARD. ON THERE AND GIVES YOU UP TO DATE. DATA ON THERE WHERE YOU'RE AT. SCENARIO BUILDER. USES THE RECORDS AND CONDITION CONDITION ASSESSMENT.

THAT WE'RE GIVING TO AN ASSET. IT'LL GIVE IT A SCORE. WE'LL PUT A BASELINE SCORE ON THEIR DEPENDING ON WHEN IT WAS INSTALLED OR MAINTENANCE ON THAT, SO WE GOT TO ROAD AND WE DO SOME PATCHING THAT SCORE WILL CHANGE WHEN YOU DO CERTAIN TYPE OF MAINTENANCE ON THAT, SO AND THEN I WILL GIVE YOU LONGEVITY ON THAT. SEE IF YOU WROTE YOUR CONDITION ASSESSMENT IS REALLY LOW. UM THEN YOU CAN COST THAT OUT FOR A FIVE YEAR PROGRAM ON THERE, AND IT WILL GIVE YOU THAT COST IN FIVE YEARS. YOU KNOW, DEPENDING ON WHAT YOU WANT TO DO WITH WHETHER IT BE A FULL RECONSTRUCTION CHIP, SEAL SLURRY SEAL. SO IT'S A GOOD IT'S A GOOD TOOL TO HAVE WE CAN SEE ALL OUR WORK ORDERS ON THE SCREEN ITSELF ON THE DASHBOARD KIND OF SHOWS YOU WHERE CREWS ARE OUT. AND THIS. CHANGES DAILY WITH THE WORK THAT COMES IN AND GETS GETS CLOSED OUT. THIS ONE HERE. THE NORFOLK RECOGNIZE SUPERIOR WATER SYSTEMS. KIND OF, UH, I'M GLAD WE GOT TO THIS POINT. IT'S BEEN A FEW YEARS KIND OF KIND OF COMING. UM. BASICALLY WE'RE FOLLOWING ALL THE BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICE THROUGH TC Q. E P A, UM, THEY CHECK OUR. INSPECTION RECORDS TO MAKE SURE ALL OUR BACTERIOLOGICAL TESTING IS WHERE IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE. WE'RE NOT OVER MAXIMUM CONTAINMENT LEVELS MEETING ALL OUR GOALS T C Q. UM. WE'RE DOING ALL ARE DOCUMENTING TO WHAT THEY UM, WHAT THEY REGULATE FOR US, AND YOU KNOW, WE'RE WE'RE DAILY . IT'S DEDICATED STAFF THAT IS DOING THIS, AND IT DEFINITELY COULD NOT BE POSSIBLE WITHOUT THE STAFF THAT WE HAVE DOING THIS SO VERY PROUD OF WHAT THEY'VE DONE TO GET TO THIS TO GET TO THIS POINT, AND THAT'S NOT SAYING THAT IT CAN'T GET TAKEN AWAY. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT UM WE WHEN THEY COME OUT AND DO OUR THREE YEAR INVESTIGATION, THEY LOOK AT ALL YOUR PAPERWORK AGAIN. UM BASICALLY, IF YOU'RE NOT KEEPING UP WITH RULES AND REGULATIONS THEY CAN BASICALLY TAKE IT AWAY FROM YOU. SO IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE DEFINITELY WANT TO MAINTAIN AND KEEP STRIVING TO DO BETTER, SO AND WE GET TO PUT UP SOME FANCY SIGNS AROUND TOWN WITH THE APPROVAL OF NEXT SLIDE NEXT SLIDE. WE GET TO PUT THIS SIGN UP AROUND AROUND TOWN ENTRY POINTS TO THE TOWN. ANYTHING

[00:15:05]

[2.B. Briefing - Northlake Neighborhood Requests for License Plate Readers]

WE RECOVERED 13 STOLEN VEHICLES , WHICH INCLUDES STOLEN LICENSE PLATES, WHICH ARE USED TO CONCEAL UM, EITHER STOLEN VEHICLES OR OTHER CRIMES, AND THEN IT IS ASSISTED BY PROVIDING INFORMATION ON TWO MURDERS, WHICH IS ALLOWED TO MURDERERS TO BE TAKEN INTO CUSTODY. ALSO IT'S

[00:20:02]

WHAT DOES IT DO? IT ACTUALLY LOOKS AND READS THE LICENSE PLATE AND THEN COMPARES IT TO A DATABASE, WHICH WE GET FROM BOTH STATE AND NATIONAL, UM, ENTITIES POLICE AGENCIES, WHICH WILL EXCUSE ME. POLICE ENTITIES, WHICH WILL PUT UM ANY OF THE CRIMINALLY OR CRIME RELATED INFORMATION. AND ATTACH IT TO THOSE PLATES ONCE IT GATHERS THAT OBJECTIVE EVIDENCE AND FACTS ABOUT THE VEHICLE. THEN IT WILL COMPARE AND SEE IF THAT IS ON THE DATABASE FOR SOMEONE THAT'S WANTED. IT DOES NOT LOOK AT PEOPLE EVEN THOUGH YOU MIGHT SEE A READ WHERE IT SHOWS THE FRONT OF THE CAR AND THE LICENSE PLATE. THE PERSON INSIDE. THAT VEHICLE IS NOT IDENTIFIED. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT, READING THE LICENSE PLATE. IT, THEN ALERTS POLICE TO THE TO THE ONE VEHICLES. AND AT THAT POINT WE WILL EITHER GET A TEXT MESSAGE OR WE CAN GET A NOTIFIED BY OUR ON OUR COMPUTER. OFFICERS CAN GET NOTIFIED ON THEIR CAR COMPUTERS, AND THEN WE GO TO THAT AREA AND LOOK FOR THOSE VEHICLES. UM IF IT'S BEEN USED, IF WE CAN USE IT TO SOLVE CRIMES, IT'S BEEN INSTRUMENTAL AGAIN IN THAT WHEN WE HAD AN INFLUX OF PEOPLE THAT WERE OPENING UNLOCKED VEHICLES AND TAKING PROPERTY OUT, IT HELPED US AT LEAST IDENTIFY SOME OF THE VEHICLES THAT WERE INVOLVED. HERE'S TO ALL STATE LAWS, JUST AS WE AS A POLICE DEPARTMENT HAVE TO ADHERE TO THE USAGE OF OUR NETWORKS AND OUR CRIMINAL DATABASES. THIS THIS IS THE SAME CONCEPT. IT IS THERE UNDER THE SAME TYPE OF RULES. UM SO THERE THERE ARE CHECKS AND BALANCES TO MAKE SURE THAT PEOPLE ARE NOT ABUSING THE SYSTEM. CHIEF CRAWFORD HAS GOTTEN US FURTHER TRAINING WITH FLOCK SO THAT ALL OF OUR OFFICERS WERE RESPONSIBLE FOR TAKING THREE DIFFERENT LEVELS SO THAT THEY UNDERSTAND THE ALERTS. THEY UNDERSTAND THE ADMIN OF THE ADMINISTRATION PORTION OF IT, AND THEY UNDERSTAND ALL THE SEARCH SEARCH TECHNIQUES. UM THE DATA AUTOMATICALLY DELETES EVERY 30 DAYS, SO THAT MEANS THAT THIS THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT'S JUST STORED ON A JUST A CLEARINGHOUSE WHERE WE JUST YOU KNOW, DIFFERENT ENTITIES WILL SIT ON THIS DATA. IT RECYCLES EVERY 30 DAYS, AND THAT'S A GOOD TOOL IN THE SENSE THAT IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING THAT'S OLD IT GOES OFF THE SYSTEM BECAUSE ONCE IT IT GOES AND RETRIEVE THAT INFORMATION FROM THE STATE DATABASES. IF IT'S SOMETHING THAT'S NO LONGER WANTED, THEN IT WILL NOT. IT WILL NOT INCLUDE THAT THAT INFORMATION. SO WHAT IT DOESN'T DO LIKE I ALLUDED TO EARLIER IT DOES NOT. UM DO FACIAL RECOGNITION. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE PEOPLE IN THE CAR. IT IS STRICTLY LOOKING AT THE LICENSE PLATE. THE LETTERS AND NUMBERS WITHIN THAT LICENSE PLATE FOR STATUS FROM AND COMPARING IT TO THE DATABASE OF WANTED. PEOPLE ARE PEOPLE THAT ARE ASSOCIATED WITH THE VEHICLE. OR ASSOCIATED BEHAVIOR WITH THE VEHICLES SUCH AS BEING USED IN AN OFFENSE OR HAVING A PROTECTIVE ORDER AND SUCH UM, IT IS NOT TIED TO PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION. IT DOES NOT TELL YOU WHERE THE CAR'S REGISTERED. IT DOES NOT TELL YOU WHO'S DRIVING THE VEHICLE. AND THEN IT'S NOT USED FOR IMMIGRATION OR TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT. IF YOU RUN A RED LIGHT WITH IT. THE CAMERA'S NOT GOING TO NOT GOING TO BEAR THAT OUT. AND WE AS OFFICERS, WE CANNOT STRICTLY USED THE FACT THAT THERE IS A FLOCK HIT TO STOP THAT VEHICLE. WE HAVE TO HAVE A LEGITIMATE REASON FOR STOPPING IT, MEANING IF WE'RE GOING TO STOP IT FOR A TRAFFIC VIOLATION. THAT'S THAT'S OUR THAT'S OUR REASON FOR CONTACT.

WE JUST CAN'T SAY WELL, THEY'VE GOT A HIT FROM FLOCKS, SO WE'RE GOING TO PULL IT OVER. WE'VE GOT TO HAVE GOT TO BE ABLE TO HAVE A LAW ENFORCEMENT RELATED PROBABLE CAUSE TO STOP IT REALLY SUFFICIENT. OKAY THE INTEREST FOR THE FOR THE L. P. R S WE'VE GOT THREE NEIGHBORHOODS RIGHT NOW THAT HAVE EXPRESSED INTEREST . GREEK MEADOWS, WHICH HAS ONE POINT OF ENTRY AND WOULD HAVE ONE CAMERA. THE HIGHLANDS, WHICH HAS FIVE POINTS OF ENTRY, AND WE NEED FIVE CAMERAS AND THEN PREVIEW FARMS, WHICH IS TWO POINTS OF ENTRY. AND WOULD NEED TO L. P. R S UM WE'LL GO IN.

THAT'S KIND OF A HIGH LEVEL VIEW WILL GO DOWN, DRILL DOWN A LITTLE BIT MORE IN TERMS OF SHOWING WHERE THOSE CAMERAS ARE. AND WE'LL START WITH THIS CREEK MEADOWS FOUGHT ROAD AND CARPENTER ROAD IS WHERE THAT ENTRY AND EXIT WOULD BE WHERE THAT CAMERA WOULD. WHAT WOULD BE PLACED, UM THE HIGHLANDS. FM 407 SUTHERLAND CRESCENT MULTI ROAD IN NORTHWEST CROSSING MONKEY

[00:25:09]

AND THEN. AND THAT IS THAT IS PAID FOR WHEN THE EQUIPMENT IS INSTALLED. THE ANNUAL COST COVERS. FOR EXAMPLE, WE'VE GOT OUR CAMERAS IF WE HAVE IF THEY BEGIN TO MALFUNCTION MYSELF AND CHIEF CRAWFORD GET NOTIFIED BY EMAIL OF THE OF THE MALFUNCTION AND THEN WE GET A ITEMIZED LIST OF WHAT THEY'RE DOING. WHAT WHAT THE CAMERAS DOING AND HOW IT'S PREPARED AND WHEN IT'S REPAIRED.

UM THE RELOCATION COSTS. WE HAD A CAMERA THAT WAS BLOCKING A DRIVEWAY BECAUSE IT WAS PUT IN BEFORE THE CONSTRUCTION OF A BUSINESS WAS PUT IN, AND IT WAS 252 TO RELOCATE THAT. AND THEN YOU HAVE THE COST TO REPLACE IT IF IT'S DAMAGED IF IT'S VANDALIZED IF A CAR RUNS INTO IT IF IT'S DAMAGED FROM WHETHER WHATEVER THE CASE MAY BE, THAT'S WHERE THAT $500 CHARGE COMES FROM. THE CAMERA TOTAL WOULD BE $22,800. AND THAT'S BASICALLY THE OVERVIEW OF THE THREE NEIGHBORHOODS AND THE REQUESTED UH, TECHNOLOGY EQUIPMENT. ANY QUESTIONS? YES WELL, I WAIT YOUR WAYS THE H O S B. KICKING IN A PERCENTAGE OF THE OVERALL COST. I DON'T KNOW THE ANSWER TO THAT, UM, UM, THAT'S NOT THE DIRECTION COUNCIL GAVE US LAST MEETING BRINGING THESE FORWARD EACH EACH ONE. UM SO THAT'S A COUNCIL DECISION. 2500 PER RANDOM IS THAT THAT ALSO INCLUDES ALL OF THE HOOK UP WITH THE COMPUTERS AND THE NOTIFICATION AND ALL THAT STUFF? THAT IS CORRECT.

THAT IS, THAT IS THE ANNUAL COST OF MAINTAINING THE CAMERA EACH CAMERA. YES, SIR. HOW MANY OTHER NEIGHBORHOODS DO WE HAVE? THAT MIGHT WANT THIS? I KNOW YOU. I CAN'T SPEAK FOR SOME OTHER NEIGHBORHOODS, BUT I MEAN, HOW MANY ARE THERE? SIX OR SEVEN. UH, THERE'S I THINK. UM, BECAUSE SQUARE CANE FALLS, UM. WE'LL CRG ONLINE THOUGHT FARM NORTH NORTH REGION STATES. START THIS RANCH . SO THERE'S AT LEAST A HALF DOZEN. SO THAT COULD END UP BEING MORE THAN $100,000 A YEAR.

POTENTIALLY. ONE THING THAT WILL HAPPEN. AS MORE NEIGHBORHOODS. BECOME INVOLVED OR IF THEY BECOME INVOLVED. THOSE BORDERS BETWEEN THE NEIGHBORHOODS WILL BE ABLE TO RELOCATE THAT CAMERA BECAUSE UM, YOU KNOW, YOU CHANGE THE ENTRY POINTS AND YOU CAN COVER MORE. NOW, THE CAMERA PROVIDER SUGGESTS KIND OF, UM. INTERIM POINTS. SO YOU YOU HAVE THE ABILITY TO TRACK AND THERE'S A SCIENCE TO THAT. BUT THERE'S A THERE'S AN ECONOMY OF SCALE YOU GET ONCE EVERYBODY'S INVOLVED.

IT'S NOT GOING TO BE AS MUCH AS EACH ONE DID IT INDIVIDUALLY. THAT MAKES SENSE. UM UM, DESCRIBING THAT I APOLOGIZE. NORTH STUMBLED OVER THAT NORTH END OF THE RIDGES. EVENTUALLY, THE NORTH END OF HARVEST LIKE EXACTLY. ALRIGHT SO WHAT WE HAVE TO PROVIDE HERE IS DIRECTION ON THE PHILOSOPHY, WHICH, OF COURSE , YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT SOME SOME QUESTIONS ABOUT THAT AND THEN SECOND, WHETHER OR NOT YOU WANT A RESOLUTION BEING BROUGHT BACK FOR THESE ADDITIONAL NEIGHBORHOODS IN THE FUTURE SO YOU CAN CALL FOR THAT. WE'LL HEAR PUBLIC INPUT HERE IN A LITTLE BIT, AND I THINK THERE'S A COUPLE OF PEOPLE SIGNED UP TO SPEAK ON THIS TOPIC. WE'LL SEE WHAT THOSE INDIVIDUALS ARE LOOKING FOR. UM AS WAS SAID IT IS POSSIBLE TO GET BETTER ECONOMICS ON THESE IF YOU CONSOLIDATE THEM ON MAIN THOROUGHFARES, BUT THE PHILOSOPHY SO FAR HAS BEEN, YOU KNOW, LET EACH NEIGHBORHOOD MAKE A CHOICE AND LET'S LET'S NOT

[00:30:03]

THEN I THINK. MY QUESTION ABOUT THE RIDGE, FOR INSTANCE, FIVE CAMERAS IS OBVIOUSLY BIGGEST REQUEST THERE. THE OTHERS ARE ONE OR TWO. I THINK. UM WITH THOSE FIVE OR ALL FIVE ENTRANCES OPEN AT THIS POINT. YES, SIR. THEY ARE OKAY. AND IN YOUR I MEAN, IS IT? HOW MUCH EFFECTIVENESS COULD WE GET IF YOU IF YOU'RE KIND OF APPROACHING THE PRIMARY ACCESS POINTS RATHER THAN THE SOUTHERN ONES, FOR INSTANCE, JUST THE NORTHERN WATER, THE WESTERN ONE, UM DO YOU THINK THAT THEY WOULD STILL BE EFFECTIVE? OR DO YOU THINK THAT PEOPLE WOULD FIGURE IT OUT AND WORK AROUND? WHEN IT COMES TO THE NEIGHBORHOODS. THERE'S ONLY YOU KNOW, THESE THESE AREAS ARE ARE IN AND OUT. AND SO WHEN YOU COVER YOUR ENTRANCES AND EXITS YOU KNOW THAT THEN YOU'VE GOT THOSE AREAS COVERED, AND THERE'S REALLY NOT IN A WAY OF GETTING AROUND THOSE WHEN YOU START TO DO THE LARGER STREETS, OBVIOUSLY YOU WILL HAVE HOLES. UM THE ADVANTAGE OF AT LEAST WITH THE NEIGHBORHOODS IS, FOR EXAMPLE, IF WE GET A DOMESTIC VIOLENCE ISSUE, AND A PERSON HAS A PROTECTIVE ORDER, THEN THAT IS ONE OF THE INDICATORS THAT WE GET. ON THOSE CAMERAS WHEN A PERSON WITH A PROTECTIVE ORDER ENTERS AN AREA AND SO WE WOULD BE ABLE TO BE PROACTIVE IN TERMS OF DETERMINING THAT WRAPPED UP THAT PERSON MAY BE IN THAT AREA, AND WITH THAT, COMBINED WITH OUR PARTNERS TECHNOLOGY ON HOUSES SUCH AS RING DOORBELLS AND SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS. WE CAN MAKE A CASE IF A PERSON IS VIOLATING PROTECTIVE ORDER.

THAT'S KIND OF ONE OF THE EXAMPLES WE COULD USE. I THINK MY QUESTION IS MORE ALONG THE LINES OF IF YOU PUT IN TWO OF THESE NORTHWEST CROSSING AND SUTHERLAND CRESCENT HERE AT THE NORTH END THE RED AND ORANGE ONES WE GET SUBSTANTIALLY THE VALUE OUT OF THE SYSTEM BECAUSE THOSE ARE TWO PRIMARY ENTRANCE POINTS FOR WOULD THOSE THAT ARE , YOU KNOW WITH THIEVES OR OTHER CRIMINALS THAT ARE TRYING TO GET ACCESS TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD? WOULD THEY FIGURE OUT THESE ARE THERE AND WORK AROUND, OKAY. AND TO YOUR POINT? YES, SIR. A LOT OF TIMES WHEN, WHEN A CRIMINAL ELEMENT IS CASING THE NEIGHBORHOOD. WHEN YOU LOOK AT SOME OF THESE NEIGHBORHOODS, FOR EXAMPLE, SOME STREETS GO THROUGH SOME STREETS, DON'T SO THEY WILL DRIVE A NEIGHBORHOOD IN ORDER TO GET THE LAY OF THE LAND. TO FIGURE OUT WHICH WHERE THEY CAN GO WHERE THEY WON'T GET STUCK.

AND PART OF THAT IS IF THEY OBSERVE THOSE THOSE I COULD SEE THAT BEING PART OF THEIR PLAN.

WE'VE SEEN THAT UNFORTUNATELY IN SOME OF OUR AREAS TO THE SOUTH, WHERE WE'VE HAD OFFENSES TAKE PLACE AND THEY'VE GONE OUT AREAS WHERE THERE WERE NO CAMERAS. DEPLOYED. OKAY? IS THERE A LIKE I LOOK AT THIS. AND I GUESS I NEED TO UNDERSTAND THE CAMERA SYSTEM AND ITS PINPOINT CAPABILITY BETTER, BUT IF YOU HAD A CAMERA, LET'S SAY MULKEY AND CLEVELAND GIBBS AND BULKY AND BORIS SEVEN. YOU WOULD THEN COVER ALL OF THESE ENTRANCES AND THE SOUTHERN ENTRANCES TO BECAUSE SQUARE OR IS THAT TOO BROAD OF AN AREA TO COVER ALL OF MULKEY? WITH TWO CAMERAS. OF COURSE, THAT REDUCED COSTS, BUT THEN IS THAT WHEN IT WHEN IT CREATES A HIT? WELL, YEAH, BUT IT PASSED THAT CAMERON. THERE'S 20 ROADS PAST THAT CAMERA. I DON'T KNOW WHERE THEY ARE RIGHT . IT DEPENDS ON HOW FAST THE REACTION IS, OR HOW YOU IT IS IT. DOES THAT DEVALUE THE DATA THAT IT GIVES YOU IF IT'S A NO, I THINK ONE OF THE THINGS THAT THIS IS A TOOL. IT'S BASICALLY IT'S A FORCE MULTIPLIER. IT'S PUTTING A CAMERA WHERE OBVIOUSLY WE DON'T HAVE AN OFFICER. UM SO BY HAVING THAT CAMERA THERE IF WE HAVE IF THE CAMERA GOES OFF, FOR EXAMPLE, LET'S SAY WE GET WHAT WE GOT IN THE RIDGE WHERE THERE WERE PEOPLE PULLING DOOR HANDLES AND GETTING INTO CARS WHEN THOSE VEHICLES WHEN THAT VEHICLE LEFT THE NEIGHBORHOOD. WE WOULD BE ABLE TO IF WE'VE GOT A DESCRIPTION FROM SOME OF THE RESIDENTS AS TO WHAT THE VEHICLE LOOKED LIKE. THEN WE'VE GOT AN ABILITY TO LOOK AT THE CAMERAS AND POSSIBLY GET LICENSE PLATE ASSOCIATED WITH IT. OKAY SO NO MATTER HOW YOU DEPLOY THESE, THERE'S GOING TO BE HOLES. BUT IF YOU IF YOU COVER YOUR MAIN ENTRANCES, ESPECIALLY NEIGHBORHOODS, YOU HAVE A BETTER CHANCE, AT LEAST OF IF SOMEONE GETS INTO THE CAR, AND SOMEBODY LEAVES THE KEY FOB, FOR EXAMPLE, AND DECIDES TO STEAL THEIR CAR.

WE'RE GOING TO BE ABLE TO KNOW WHEN THAT CAR LEFT THE NEIGHBORHOOD. IF WE'VE GOT ALL

[00:35:02]

THERE'S A THERE'S A BALANCE THERE AND ACTUALLY, UH, WE HAVE A PLAN. THEY PROVIDED THAT OBVIOUSLY, THEY WOULD LIKE TO LISTEN TO LEASE ENOUGH TO PROVIDE COVERAGE FOR THE ENTIRE TOWN. SO WE HAVE A PLAN FOR THAT. AND DEPENDING ON COUNCILS DIRECTION, WE MOVE FORWARD. WE WOULD SNAP TO THAT PLAN AS WE MOVE THROUGH THIS PROCESS AND AGAIN THEIR TECHNOLOGY. THEY KNOW HOW MANY WHAT DOES THAT LOOK LIKE? UH WE CAN BRING THAT FORWARD IN THE FUTURE COUNCIL MEETING. I DON'T HAVE IT. I DON'T HAVE IT. I WASN'T READY PREPARED TO TALK ABOUT THAT. BUT WE WERE DOING THIS. KIND OF NEIGHBORHOOD AT A TIME. BUT THERE THERE IS A WAY TO. I MEAN, THERE'S AN ULTIMATE GOAL AS WELL, UH AND WE CAN MOVE. YOU KNOW, WE WERE REMOVING THAT WAY, AND AS WE MOVE CLOSER, WE WOULD GET CLOSER AND CLOSER TO THE ULTIMATE SYSTEM. I, FOR ONE WOULD LIKE TO SEE IT JUST SO THAT I KNOW HOW FAR THE RABBIT HOLE GOES, I GUESS FOR ONE REASON, AND THEN YOU JUST HOW MUCH MONEY THIS COSTS IN IN THE END, YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN? IF IT COMES TO THAT IT MAY NEVER COME TO THAT. BUT THE OPTION. IT'S BEEN MY PHILOSOPHY. I DIDN'T REALLY WANT TO GO THAT DIRECTION BECAUSE THERE ARE YOU KNOW, NEIGHBORHOOD TO NEIGHBORHOOD.

THERE'S DIFFERENT VIEWPOINTS ON THIS PARTICULAR TECHNOLOGY, AND I DON'T WANT TO PUT PIT A NEIGHBORHOOD AGAINST ANOTHER NEIGHBORHOOD BECAUSE ONE NEIGHBORHOOD WANTS THAT ONE NEIGHBORHOOD DOESN'T OR INDIVIDUAL HOMEOWNERS ALONG THE WAY OR PROPERTY OWNERS STILL WANT TO SEE THAT THESE PUT UP AT THE ENTRANCES FOR ACCESS TO THEIR PROPERTY. SO UNLESS WE HAVE, YOU KNOW, A PRETTY SUBSTANTIAL RESPONSE FROM A NEIGHBORHOOD THAT'S WHY I FELT LIKE A NEIGHBORHOOD. THE NEIGHBORHOOD PLAN IS A LITTLE MORE RESPECTFUL OF THAT FOR RIGHT NOW. OBVIOUSLY I MEAN, IF YOU JUST COUNT ENTRANCES, YOU CAN GET THE WHOLE AREA OF THE RIDGE AND PECAN SQUARE WITH PROBABLY I THINK IT'S LIKE SIX CAMERAS. UM, SO FIVE FURTHER FOR THE HIGHLANDS IS QUITE A BIG INVESTMENT, AND THAT'S WHY I WAS KIND OF CURIOUS IF WE'RE ONLY DOING NEIGHBORHOOD TO NEIGHBORHOOD RIGHT NOW, IF WE CAN GET, YOU KNOW A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF PRACTICAL USE THAT OF THE TWO PRIMARY ENTRANCES, BUT IF THEY'RE GOING TO CASE IT AND WORK AROUND IT, AND THAT'S A PRETTY TYPICAL THING THAN IN ORDER TO GET THE VALUE GOING TO HAVE TO DO ALL THE ENTRANCES IS WHAT CAPTAIN'S TELLING US UM, WELL IN IN CREEK MEADOWS IS MAYBE ONE CAMERA FOR 20 HOMES. PREVIEW FARMS IS TWO CAMERAS FOR 50 HOMES. YOU'VE GOT FIVE CAMERAS FOR 220 HOMES, SO IT'S STILL UM, EFFICIENCY WISE. IT'S STILL IN THE BALLPARK. PROBABLY NOT AS EFFICIENT AS THE RIDGE, OBVIOUSLY RIGHT, AND YOU CAN OBVIOUSLY GO TO MAJOR ENTRANCES TO THE TOWN, AND THERE'S ONLY A DOZEN OR TWO AT THE FURTHEST ENDS OF THE CORE OF THE TOWN.

BUT I THINK THAT'S THAT'S A BIG QUESTION FOR THE ENTIRE TOWN TO TALK ABOUT, AND WE HAVEN'T REALLY ROLLED THIS OUT FOR THE WHOLE TOWN TO BE TO PROVIDE INPUT, SO AS THESE COME ONLINE, AND THEY'RE USEFUL IN NEIGHBORHOOD NEIGHBORHOOD SEES HOW EACH OF THESE WORK AND HOW EACH NEIGHBORHOOD HAS COMFORTABLE WITH THEM. YOU KNOW, I LIKE THE INCREMENTAL APPROACH UNTIL WE SEE THAT THERE'S A GROUNDSWELL OF AND DOOZY ASM FOR THIS TYPE OF SOLUTION. THAT'S WHY I HAVEN'T WANTED TO GO THAT DIRECTION TO TALK ABOUT A WHOLE SYSTEM. I MEAN, I THINK I WOULD REPHRASE MR CORN, WHICH HE SAID I DON'T HAVE AN ULTIMATE GOAL. MY GOAL IS JUST SATISFYING. THE INDIVIDUAL NEVER SAID THAT THERE IS A THERE'S A LAYOUT THAT COVERS OUR ENTIRE TOWN THAT ITS POTENTIAL THAT WAS INSANE. ANY OF YOURS? NO. I APPRECIATE THAT. I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WAS CLEAR. MY GOAL IS TO DISCUSS EACH INDIVIDUAL REQUEST AND SEE WHAT WE CAN DO ABOUT IT. UM YES , THERE IS COST INVOLVED WITH MOVING THESE ONCE THEY'RE PLACED , BUT IF WE'RE USING THEM IN THEIR EFFECTIVE, I THINK MOVING THEM, YOU KNOW FOR $500 AND ENCOMPASSING MORE AREA IS AN APPROPRIATE USE OF FUNDS TO EXPAND THE AREA IF THE OTHER AREAS WANTED, BUT IF THEY DON'T I LEAN TOWARDS JUST TAKING EACH REQUEST AS IT COMES. THAT'S ME MY SENSE. I THINK WE ASKED LAST TIME. THIS TAKES UP THE. 18 HERE PLUS THE RIDGE IF THAT'S APPROVED TONIGHT, SO THAT'S 20.

23 25 SOMEWHERE IN THAT ROOM. DID YOU FIND OUT? IS THERE A AND E VOLUME DISCOUNT? WHEN YOU HIT 25 OR 30 OR 50 CAMERAS. IS THERE A PRICE REDUCTIONS. WERE YOU GUYS ABLE TO FIND ANYTHING ON THAT? I'M NOT SURE. UM I THINK SO. BUT I CAN GET YOU THAT ANSWER IN EFFECT THAT YEAH.

WE'LL DOUBLE CHECK THAT IT SEEMS REASONABLE THAT THERE MAY BE SOMETHING LIKE THAT. WRITE MYSELF A NOTE. ALL RIGHT. THERE'S NO MORE QUESTIONS. THANK YOU, CAPTAIN. THANK YOU VERY

[00:40:02]

[2.C. Briefing - Road Assessment Fee Process]

IT'S OUR MAIN ENTRANCE. YOU KNOW , AS WE WERE GOING THROUGH OUR MONUMENT STATION, THIS IS AN AREA THAT'S AN ENTRANCE. WE'RE GONNA HAVE OUR CONFERENCE CENTER HERE. IT'S OUR FRONT DOOR. AND SO IT'S JUST JUST TRYING TO FIND WAYS TO IMPROVE THAT THIS WOULD REALLY BE THE ONLY RECOMMENDED USE. I'D HAVE OF THAT IN OTHER AREAS WE'VE WE'VE USED, YOU KNOW , DEBT AND IMPACT FEES TO IMPROVE ROADS AND DEPENDING ON THE. THE PERCENTAGES. WE'D STILL AT LEAST 10, DEPENDING ON WHAT

[00:45:08]

IT WOULD BE WHATEVER THE FRONTAGE IS ON SPECIFIC PROJECT. WE CHOSE. WE HAD TO REPLACE A ROAD. LET'S SAY SCHOBERT, PARTS OF SHOWBIZ FALLING APART THOUGHT ROAD IS A MESS. WE WERE TO REPAIR THOSE. THIS WOULD APPLY TO THOSE RESIDENTS ONLY APPLY TO THE PROJECTS. YOU SAY IT APPLIES TO DJ. YOU COULD DO IT IN THE TOWN OR IN THE T. J JUST AGAIN. IT'S JUST SPECIFICALLY FOR THIS PROJECT. THE CHALLENGE WITH TRYING TO FIND THE FUNDING AND IT WOULD HIGHLY BENEFIT THESE PROPERTIES. BUT THEY'RE THEY'RE NOT IN OUR TAX BASE, SO WE DON'T NEED TO CHANGE ANYTHING IN OUR ORDINANCES THAT SAYS WE HAVE THIS NEW FEE. THIS THING ALREADY EXISTS. WE'RE JUST BEING GIVEN THE CHOICE TO USE IT OR NOT. SO JUST A PIGGYBACK ON THAT. AND IF YOU GO BACK ONE SIDE UM, SO THE FIRST THING YOU'LL DO IS ADOPT A POLICY OF PAVING POLICY AND THAT YOU'LL WHEN YOU SEE THAT IF YOU IF YOU DECIDE TO DO THIS, IT DOESN'T DIFFERENTIATE BETWEEN RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL. IT COVERS EVERYTHING. ANY POSSIBLE USE OF CHAPTER 3 13 WOULD BE COVERED IN THAT POLICY. BUT WHEN YOU GET LATER ON IN THE PROCESS LIKE AND 45 AND SIX OR EVEN THREE, THAT'S YOUR SPECIFIC PROJECT WHERE YOU DECIDE THAT YOU'RE GOING TO ACTUALLY ASSESS THAT PROJECT. SO AT THAT POINT, YOU DECIDE YOU. NO NO, THESE ARE THE RESIDENTS WERE NOT GOING TO DO IT. THIS PROJECT. WE LIKE IT HERE ON DARRYL AND HEART WAY BECAUSE IT MADE SENSE. IT WAS IT WAS A PROPERTY OWNER IN THE DJ.

SO THERE IS A STEP FOR THAT. BUT THE INITIAL STEP UP BEGINNING IS YOU HAVE TO ADOPT A POLICY THAT'S GOING TO GOVERN TOWN WIDE AND THEN YOU GET TO DECIDE DISCRETIONARY LEE WHETHER TO ACTUALLY ASSESS THEM, AND THEN YOU'LL HOLD THE HEARINGS AND DECIDE. YEAH WE'RE GOING TO ASSESS THE APPROPRIATORS ARE NO, WE'RE NOT. BALLPARK HOW MUCH WOULD THAT COST? AND THEN HOW MUCH WOULD THAT BE TO THOSE PEOPLE? JUST TOTALLY ROUGH. I GET THAT. DENNIS WOULD. A MILLION TWO MILLION. YEAH. 11 MILLION AND THERE ARE. FIVE COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES. THERE ARE FOUR SO MAYBE 202 150,000. SO THE IT'S IF YOU DECIDED THAT 100% DEPENDS ON THE PERCENTAGE, EXACTLY EXACTLY YOU AS A AS A POLICY OR AS THIS PROJECT YOU COULD SAY 50 50 PAISE HALF THESE ARE THE GARAGES HERE ON THE MOST SOUTHERN END, RIGHT? OKAY THAT AREN'T ABSOLUTELY THE MAYOR'S RIGHT. WE COULD SLICE THIS. ANY WAY YOU WANT TO. THE PROJECT ITSELF IS A MILLION DOLLARS. HOW YOU WANTED TO DO THE PERCENTAGES. UH, YES. ANOTHER ALTERNATIVE WOULD BE TO ASK THESE PEOPLE TO ANNEX INTO THE TOWN. AND THEN WE WOULD HAVE THE TAX BASE TO THEN FINANCE THIS.

THIS ERODED BRIEF. HOW MUCH DOES A ROAD COST PER MILE? IS THIS USED TO BE A MILLION? WHAT IS IT NOW? A MILLION AND A HALF PER MILE. BETWEEN DEPENDING ON. RIGHT, SO THIS IS NOT. THIS IS TWO LANES AND IT'S LESS THAN HALF A MILE. IT'S JUST IT'S JUST THIS LITTLE SECTION HERE. UNTIL WE GET UNTIL WE GET TO THE SPLIT OFF THERE. CAN YOU SEND US SOME INFORMATION ON OTHER MUNICIPALITIES? WHERE HAS THIS BEEN USED? HOW DID THEY APPROACH IT? SURE. LIKE THIS IS NOT USED VERY OFTEN FIGURED YOU DO, BUT I'D LIKE SOME EXAMPLES. IF THERE ARE SOME SURE. OKAY? KIND OF LIKE TO SEE A IF WE HAVE A SAMPLE, TEXT OR DRAFT TEXT OR BOILERPLATE TEXT OF A PAVING POLICY. I THINK THAT WOULD BE SO WOULD YOU? YOU WOULDN'T ANOTHER BRIEFING WITH EXAMPLES, EVEN IF

[00:50:01]

[3. PUBLIC INPUT]

HOWEVER YOU CAN WAVE AT ME AND FILL IT OUT AFTER THE FACT AND JUST TURN IT IN OVER TO THE STAFF. ANYONE OF THEM CAN PASS IT UP. UM BUT WE'LL GET STARTED WITH BEFORE WE HAVE OUR POLICY IS TALKED FOR THREE MINUTES. AND YOU MAY TALK ABOUT ANY SUBJECT YOU WANT. AND BUT I'LL WAVE AT YOU WHEN YOU GET CLOSE. AND IF YOU COULD JUST WRAP UP YOUR COMMENTS WERE NOT REAL STRICT.

WE WON'T TACKLE YOU IF YOU HAD THREE MINUTES IN THE SECOND OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, UM, THEY WILL GIVE YOU A CHANCE TO WRAP UP YOUR COMMENTS, BUT NUMBER ONE TONIGHT DREW COME ON DOWN. JUST INTRODUCE YOURSELF, PLEASE. AND YOUR ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD? SURE. GOOD EVENING COUNCIL MAYOR . MY NAME IS DREW BELENE ADDRESS . I'D BE GLENN COURT AND NORTH LAKE AND THE RIDGE COMMUNITY.

IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU ALL AGAIN. HOPE YOU GUYS HAD A GOOD THANKSGIVING. SOME OF THE CHAIR OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH COMMITTEE, UM AT THE RIDGE COMMUNITY, AND I WANT TO COME BACK AND SHOW MY SUPPORT FOR THE LPR CAMERAS. UM, CAPTAIN CAPTAIN COLEMAN SPOKE ABOUT JUST WANT TO REITERATE KIND OF WHAT I SAID. LAST TIME I HAD TO TRAININGS WITH FLOCK TO UNDERSTAND AND PRESENT THE CAMERAS TO OUR COMMUNITY. THEY WERE SENT THE INFORMATION THEY WERE GIVEN THREE FULL DAYS TO VOTE. FORMALLY AND ASK QUESTIONS TO MYSELF AS WELL AS OTHERS ON OUR NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH COMMITTEE. WE CONNECTED A SURVEY 146 RESPONSES 80% OR 116 MORE IN FAVOR. WE HAVE HAD CRIME INSTANCE. I KNOW THAT WAS MENTIONED EARLIER THIS PAST SUMMER, AND I DO WANT TO THANK OUR LAW ENFORCEMENT FOR RESPONDING QUICKLY, PROVIDING ASSISTANCE TO THOSE THAT HAD ITEMS STOLEN AND INCREASED PATROL TO HELP IT OR TO HAVE TO STOP IT FROM HAPPENING AGAIN OR PREVENT IT. UNFORTUNATELY, WE KNOW THAT WE'RE A MILE OFF 35 W AND WE'RE EXTREMELY VULNERABLE TO THIS HAPPENING OVER AND OVER . PETTY CRIME IS ONE THING BUT INDIVIDUALS VIOLATING PROTECTIVE ORDERS WARRANTS OUT FOR THEIR ARREST. STOLEN VEHICLES ARE ANOTHER CAMERAS ARE MAJOR ASSET TO OUR LAW ENFORCEMENT. AS YOU HEARD CHIEF CRAWFORD LAST MEETING. SPEAK ABOUT THESE CAMERAS. UM AND CAPTAIN COLEMAN TODAY. IT'S A HUGE ASSET TO THEM TO HELP THEIR POLICE FORCE AND EXPAND THEIR RANGE. UM IT'S IMPERATIVE THAT WE CHOOSE TO ASSIST OUR VALUABLE POLICE FORCE BY INSTALLING THESE CAMERAS IN THE RIDGE UNDERSTAND THE COST, BUT ALSO NOT INSTALLING THESE CAMERAS HAS A COST AS WELL. YOU HAVE THE COST OF A LARGER POLICE FORCE THAT IS NEEDED TO COVER THESE THESE AREAS AS HOUSES CONTINUE TO GO UP HOME VALUES IF YOU HAVE HIGH CRIME THAT DOESN'T HELP ANYBODY'S HOME VALUE. UM AS WELL AS THE LOSS OF PERSONAL PROPERTY AND POTENTIAL DAMAGE TO PROPERTY. UM ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS IS A STATE TROOPER IN ILLINOIS. AND I WAS TALKING ABOUT THIS AND HE SAID, YOU'RE GONNA HAVE LICENSE PLATE READERS IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD AND I SAID, HOPEFULLY, HE'S LIKE, THAT'S INCREDIBLE. HE'S LIKE IF WE HAD THAT WHERE I AM THAT WOULD HELP US TENFOLD. UM HE SAID, THERE'S SO MANY TIMES WHERE I DON'T HAVE ENOUGH INFORMATION OR I'M NOT THERE IN TIME TO PREVENT SOMETHING FROM HAPPENING THAT I WISH I COULD. SO THAT'S JUST A PERSONAL TESTIMONY THERE FOR YOU. OVERALL THIS IS ABOUT KEEPING NORTH LIKE A SAFE COMMUNITY. AS IT CONTINUES TO FLOURISH. THIS ISN'T AND THE RICH COMMUNITY WANT TO ASSIST THE POLICE FORCE TO BE THE BEST THEY CAN AND TO KEEP OUR OFFICERS IN THE RIDGE RESIDENTS SAFE. ANY QUESTIONS YOU GUYS MIGHT HAVE. WE'RE NOT USUALLY OPEN TO DISCUSSION AT THIS POINT. SO, UM I MEAN, WE CAN MAKE STATEMENTS OF FACT, IF THERE'S A QUESTION TO US, BUT WE CAN'T REALLY JUST DISCUSS THE ACTION ITEM. BUT THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. NUMBER TWO TONIGHT IS TIFFANY. HELLO. UH, I'M TIFFANY WAS SHARED. I LIVE AT A 33 17 DOVE HILL WITH MY HUSBAND AND MY LOVELY SECOND GRADER, MADDOX, WHO JUST FINISHED HIS HOMEWORK DURING THIS MEETING. NORMALLY CLIFF TRAVIS IS HERE TO REPRESENT THE HIGHLANDS. BUT HE COULDN'T MAKE IT TONIGHT AND HE POSTED ON HER FACEBOOK COMMUNITY GROUP WHO CAN COME AND I SAID, I

[00:55:03]

TIMELINES ALL THAT HAS TO COME FROM ON COURT AND THEIR ENGINEERS AS FAR AS THE PROCESS.

OKAY AND I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO THANK YOU GENTLEMEN FOR DOING SUCH A GOOD JOB REPRESENTING NORTH LAKE. THANK YOU. I STAY ON ON TOPIC THERE. ALRIGHT. ALRIGHT. THANK YOU. JOEL. 89 21 EC FAMILY LIKE ANGEL MCGREGOR, UM, ROAD ASSESSMENT THING KIND OF BOTHERS ME. UM I LIVE RIGHT OFF. THEY LEARN HARD AS YOU KNOW , AND ONE OF THE BUSINESSES THAT USES 75% OF THE TRAFFIC ON DALE EARNHARDT HAS ALMOST ZERO FRONTAGE ON DALE EARNHARDT. THAT'S THE AUTO. SALVAGE INSURANCE PLACE THAT'S KIND OF ON THE CORNER THERE, SO IT'S GOT MAYBE I DON'T KNOW. 20 FT OF FRONTAGE THERE AND I GUESSING THAT'S A 75% OF THE TRAFFIC THAT RUNS UPDATE LEARNED HEART GOES OVER TO THAT PLACE. AND THE WAREHOUSES AND STUFF AROUND ME, DEPENDING ON WHAT THEY DO MOST OF THOSE GENERATED VERY LITTLE TRAFFIC. THE MAIN ONE IS STANLEY THERE BECAUSE THEY HAVE TONS OF EMPLOYEES, AND THERE'S LOTS OF TRAFFIC, YOU KNOW, WITH ALL THE CARS AND STUFF, BUT I'M AFRAID THAT PEOPLE THAT AREN'T REALLY USING THE ROAD OR YOU'LL END UP PAYING FOR THE MAJORITY OF THE ROAD AND I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU FIGURE THAT OUT. AND THEN ALSO ONCE THAT'S ON THE BOOKS, AND YOU PEOPLE GET USED TO DOING IT, FUTURE COUNCILS MIGHT DECIDE TO GO. OVERBOARD WITH IT AND START CHARGING RESIDENTS ALONG THE ROAD, YOU KNOW FOR THINGS. WHERE? YOU KNOW I LIVE ON THAT

[01:00:03]

[01:05:06]

WE'VE ALREADY LOST A MONTH SO FAST AS WE GET IT BACK AS IN JANUARY, I THINK I THINK JANUARY 31ST DOES THAT SEEM REASONABLE SOUNDS REASONABLE. WHAT DO WE DO ABOUT IT? IF THEY DON'T GET WE NEED TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THE DESIGN OF THE SEWER LINE FOR OUR SYSTEM ONLY AND NOT INCLUDE THEM IN THE SYSTEM. THERE'S AN ITEM LATER IN THE AGENDA WHERE WE'RE GOING TO INCREASE THE BUDGET FOR PLUMBER WHO'S DESIGNING OUR SYSTEM TO DESIGN IT TO INCLUDE TO UP SIZE IT FOR THEM. UM. WHEN WE GET TO THAT ITEM MIGHT ASK THAT YOU MAKE THAT ITEM CONTINGENT ON JUSTICE APPROVING THIS ONE. WE CAN WAIT ON THE PLUMBER AMENDMENT OR GO AHEAD AND IMPROVE IT TONIGHT AND HAVE IT CONTINGENT AND THEN IT DOESN'T GO IN EFFECT. UNTIL THIS I SEE A IS GONE INTO EFFECT SO THAT THEY STAY TOGETHER AND WE DON'T LOSE ANY TIME. BUT YEAH, WE'RE LOSING WILL HAVE LOST 23 MONTHS. YOU KNOW THE GRAND SCHEME OF THINGS. WE REALLY NEED THIS LINE TO GET OUR CATHERINE BRANCH PROJECTS, BUT WE'VE GOT A WE'VE GOT A CONTINGENCY PLAN FOR THAT. WE'RE GOING TO RAMP UP THE WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT WE'VE GOT THERE WERE GOING TO MAXIMIZE THAT SO WE WON'T BE PUT IN A BIND. SO WE'VE WE'RE HOW ABOUT WE HOW ABOUT WE GIVE MR CORNYN AUTHORITY TO NEGOTIATE THIS UNTIL OUR NEXT COUNCIL MEETING. IF WE DON'T HAVE ANY ANY INDICATION FROM THEM, THEY'RE LEANING TOWARDS AGREEING THIS BY THE NEXT COUNCIL MEETING, THEN WE'LL PUT IT HAVE IT ON OUR AGENDA AGAIN AND WE CAN WE CAN ACT ON IT AS FAR AS WE'RE SENDING IT OR GIVE HIM DIRECTION TO CANCEL AND PULL BACK, BUT BASICALLY IDEAS NEGOTIATING THE NEXT COUNCIL MEETING WE PUT IT OUT TO THE 31ST, AND WE'RE MISSING OUR MEETING, AND THEN IT'S FEBRUARY BEFORE WE GET TO DO SOMETHING. I JUST DON'T WANT THEM TO THINK THEY CAN SIT THERE IN PERPETUITY AND THINK ABOUT IT . SO UNTIL OUR NEXT MEETING I WOULD RECOMMEND IS THAT ALRIGHT? 12TH. ALRIGHT 12. DO WE NEED TO REDO THAT ALREADY DID DO YOU CONCUR? BUT THE TIMELINE ALRIGHT, SO EMOTIONS WERE MADE MY COUNSELOR SESSION SECONDED BY COUNCILOR MORE WITH THE RECOMMENDATION OF MR CORN ON THE DEADLINE. ALL THOSE. ALL THOSE, HOWEVER, YOU WANT TO VOTE ON IT. PLEASE VOTE.

RIGHT. THERE IT IS. HOPEFULLY, WE'RE IN BUSINESS. COME HOME THROUGH COULDN'T SPELL ON. WELL THAT'S THEIR NAME, BUT AUTO CORRECT WILL TRY TO CHANGE IT ON YOU. SO YOU GOT TO BE CAREFUL.

ALRIGHT WE'VE REACHED THE REGULAR ACTION SECTION OF OUR OF OUR MEETING. AS I SAID, THERE'S

[6.I. Consider Ordinance 22-1208B, providing for the annexation of approximately 101.07 acres of land situated in the J.M. Pain Survey, Abstract No. 1529, generally located on the west side of Faught Road between Faith Lane and Evelyn Lane. CM West LLC is the owner/applicant. Case # ANX-22- 003]

[01:10:03]

PERCENT MONTINI WITH THE QUICK FINGERS. MOTION TO APPROVE AND SECONDED BY COUNCILOR KICKER ALRIGHT, COUNSELORS, PLEASE VOTE. ALL RIGHT. WELCOME TO THE TOWN, NORTH LAKE. THANK YOU.

[6.J. Consider Ordinance 22-1208C, amending the Code of Ordinances and Appendix “A” “Fee Schedule”, providing water and sanitary sewer service fee updates to be effective December 8, 2022]

OKAY SO WHEN EXACTLY WITH THE WATER EIGHT CHANGE FOR THE 20TH ON THE 20TH MOVING FORWARD OR BEING BUILT, OKAY, ALRIGHT. ALL RIGHT. SO NOW WE NEED TO HEAR MORE ABOUT THIS. YES. SO THANK YOU FOR CLARIFYING. UM SO HOW WE GOT HERE SO ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO, WE DID A RATE ADJUSTMENT. IT WAS A LARGER RATE ADJUSTMENTS, AND IT'S WITH ADJUSTMENT SO NECESSARY THAT IT ALMOST LIKE BEFORE WE WERE. OUR SYSTEM WAS ALMOST RUNNING OUT OF FUNDS. AND SO SINCE THEN, WE'VE SEEN STANDING ON A GROWTH WE'VE INCREASED ROUGHLY ABOUT 43% SINCE WE'VE TOUCHED RATES THE LAST TIME ARE BUILDING VOLUMES OR ABOUT 40% HIGHER SO THERE IS AN EFFICIENCY GAIN THEIR HAIR ROUGHLY, AND WE'VE ALSO ADDED SOME DEBT FOR OUR WHOLE WATER SYSTEM AS WELL. THIS IS THE MAIN REASON FOR THE INCREASE IS THESE COST INCREASES THAT WE'RE SEEING FROM OUR WHOLESALE PROVIDERS. SO BECAUSE OF WATER OF JUST PROVIDING WATER IS WHAT'S GOING UP. PART OF THIS IS DUE TO PEKING, SO THE OPPORTUNITY THE MIDDLE ONE THAT YOU SEE THERE, THEY'RE THE ONES THAT HAD THE LARGEST INCREASE, AND THAT IS BECAUSE WE HAD TO MOVE OUR INCREASED DEMAND FROM 3.8 MILLION GALLONS PER DAY TO 6.3. AND SO DURING THE SUMMER WE HIT 6.3. WE HIT IT A COUPLE OF TIMES AND LUCKILY OPPORTUNITY ALLOWED US TO HIT THAT AND NOT HAVE TO GO AND PAY THE NEXT RACKET. UM SO WE'RE GOING TO PAY FOR THAT SUBSCRIPTION FOR THE WHOLE NEXT YEAR, AND THAT DIFFERENCE IN COST IS 1.16 MILLION. OVERALL IF WE DON'T DO THIS WOULD BE SHORT ABOUT $1.8 MILLION AND SO WE EAT DOWN. WHAT LITTLE CASH RESERVES WE HAD. THIS ISN'T PUSHING OUR RESERVES UP ALL IN ONE JUMP.

THIS IS REALLY JUST TRYING TO MAINTAIN RESERVES FROM BALANCES AND NOT LOSE GROUND. AND SO WATER IS SOMETHING THAT SHOULD PAY FOR ITSELF AND IT SHOULD BE SOMETHING THAT WE PREPARE FOR THE WORST POSSIBLE CONDITIONS BECAUSE RAIN IS SOMETHING THAT'S FREQUENT. AND THEN IT'S VERY HERE IN TEXAS, AND SO OVERALL, I KNOW I'M SCARED WITH A BUNCH OF NUMBERS. OVERALL THESE RATES ACTUALLY DON'T LOOK THAT DIFFERENT FROM WHAT WE'RE CHARGING RIGHT NOW. AND I WANT TO PROVIDE YOU JUST A LITTLE BIT OF A REEF. SO WE'VE DONE SOME THINGS BASED ON THE LAST DISCUSSION THAT WE'VE HAD. WAS THESE ARE CURRENT WATER RATES. $4.05 DOLLARS $7 AND THEN BIOMETRIC CHARGES UP THERE FOR COMMERCIAL WAS 67 AND EIGHT SO. RIGHT NOW WE'RE GOING TO PROPOSE TO DIFFERENT OPTIONS OPTION A OPTION B YOUR SCENARIO ONE SCENARIO 2123 TIER STRUCTURE SIMILAR TO WHAT WE HAVE NOW, AND THE OTHER IS A TWO TIERED STRUCTURE, WHICH IS A SIMPLER WATER CALCULATION. THESE TWO OF YOU DO DIFFERENT THINGS, BUT THEY BOTH BRING US RIGHT IN AROUND THE SAME AMOUNT OF INCOME. YOU'RE JUST KIND OF CHOOSING. WHERE WHERE THAT INCOME COMES FROM. SO THIS IS OUR NEW PROPOSED WATER RATES WERE PROPOSING REMOVING THE 1ST

[01:15:08]

ASSOCIATED SEWER IS A ONE FOR ONE RATE YOU USE 1000 GET CHARGED A VERY FLAT RATE OVER YOUR BASE CHARGE. SO THESE CHARGES DO DIFFERENT THINGS. ON THE COMMERCIAL SIDE. WE DID SOME HEAVY PLUGS INTO THE BASE MINIMUM CHARGE, SO HE INCREASED COMMERCIAL BASE MINIMUM CHARGES BECAUSE OUR COMMERCIAL AREAS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR A LOT OF OUR DEBT. AND SO THERE'S A HIGH FIXED COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH OUR COMMERCIAL CUSTOMERS. THERE WAS COST DON'T GO AWAY. THEY WERE DEAD IS OUR DEBT, AND SO THEY'RE PAYING FOR A LARGER CHUNK OF THAT, BECAUSE A LOT OF THE IMPROVEMENTS ARE BENEFITING THEM. SO THIS WAS ONE WAY THAT WE PUSHED IT. THE VOLUMETRIC CHARGES DON'T CHANGE VERY MUCH FOR THEM. BUT THE BASE CHARGES DO INCREASE AND SAY WE DID PUSH HEAVILY ON THEM TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY'RE PAYING FOR THEIR SHARE OF THE COST. SAME THING ON CIVIL RIGHTS FOR THEM. THERE IS KIND OF A LARGER CHARGE FOR BIOMETRIC ON SEWER ON THEM AND IN THEIR BASE CHARGE. SO OVERALL WHAT THESE TWO SCENARIOS, DO YOU? THIS IS KIND OF WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE ON A, UM $10,000 OUR 10,000 GALLON BILL $7000, WHERE AVERAGE IT IS AN INCREASE. THIS IS WHAT AN AVERAGE BILL LOOKS LIKE. YOU'RE IN NORTHLAKE. AND THIS IS KIND OF WHAT THE AVERAGE TOTAL DIFFERENCE WOULD BE. NOW IF WE GET INTO REGIONAL COMPARISONS ON WHAT THIS DOES PRICE WISE. OUR OLD RATES WERE THE LOWEST THE LOWEST IN THE AREA. ROANOKE WAS LOWER, BUT IT'S A SPECIAL SPECIAL PLACE TO REPLACE. SO UM, THEY HAVE A LOT OF INTERESTING THINGS THERE. BUT WE WERE ONE OF THE LOWEST ONES IN THE REGION. AND THE BIGGEST CHANGE THAT YOU'RE SEEING. AND COST IS THOSE 23 GALLONS. WHEN THOSE YOU REMOVE THOSE AWAY, WE'RE MIDDLE OF THE PACK. WE'RE CHARGING WHAT OTHER PEOPLE ARE, AND WE HAVE A VERY TYPICAL RATE STRUCTURE THAT'S VERY LEAST SIMILAR TO EVERY OTHER CITY AROUND US. WE'RE RUNNING ABOUT MIDDLE OF THE PACK. BUT I WILL SAY THAT OUR SYSTEM IS NEWER. AND SO YOU'RE SEEING A LOT OF COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH THAT. AND UM ARE VOLUMETRIC CONSUMPTION IS MORE THAN MOST OF THESE OTHER CITIES. HAVE THESE CITIES SUGGESTED THEIR RATES AND YES, AND THERE ARE INCLUDED. SO THEY'VE ALREADY IS A WORD LATE TO CHANGE. YES RUNNING ABOUT 4 TO 5 MONTHS LATER. OKAY? SO IF YOU LOOK ON A $5000 OR 5000 GALLON BILL BASIS SCENARIO ONE IS A LITTLE BIT CHEAPER. SO WHAT YOU'RE DOING BY THE SCENARIO ONE VERSUS SCENARIO TO SAVING MONEY FOR PEOPLE USING LESS WATER SCENARIO ONE BENEFITS CUSTOMERS WHO ARE USING LESS THAN YOU KNOW 15,000 GALLONS WHERE IT STARTS CAUSING IN YOU CHARGE MORE IS WITH HIGHER CONSUMPTION. SO THAT'S A 10,000 SCENARIO. ONE STARTS SLIPPING AROUND AND YOU START CHARGING MORE WHEN YOU GET UP TO 10,000. AND THEN YOU START CHARGING 20,000, AND THEY ACTUALLY GET PRETTY SIMILAR AGAIN. SO IT'S YOUR MIDDLE BRACKET USERS THAT ARE ARE FEELING THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THOSE TWO PRICES SCENARIOS. I WILL SAY THAT SCENARIO ONE BENEFITS LOWER USAGE CUSTOMERS MORE, NOT THAT SUBSTANTIVE IN DOLLARS DOLLARS, BUT IT'S A IF YOU USE LESS WATER YOU'RE PAYING FOR LESS WATER. THAT'S THAT'S A SIMPLE IT IS THREE TIERS. YOU JUST YOU'RE PUTTING PRESSURE ON PEOPLE WHO ARE USING HIGHER AMOUNTS OF WATER, AND THOSE ARE THE ONES THAT ARE CAUSING PEAKING IN OUR SYSTEM, AND THEY'RE THE ONES THAT'S THE MAIN CAUSE OF OUR PRICE INCREASE IN OUR VOLUMETRIC COST. SO MY PREFERENCE IS ALWAYS GOING TO BE A SCENARIO ONE BECAUSE IT PLACES A STRUCTURE OR ON HIGH PEAK CONSUMPTION USERS. SCENARIO TWO, THOUGH, IS A SIMPLER PRICING MODEL, AND SO FOR SIMPLICITY WOULD MAKE IT EASIER WHEN SOMEONE HAS TO GO PENCIL CALCULATE THEIR BILL. JOHN REAL QUICK, UM I BELIEVE IN WHEN YOUR PREVIOUS SLIDES WHEN YOU SHOWED THE RATE INCREASE FROM T C Q. FROM FROM TRINITY. SORRY, HMM.

$77 1000 GALLONS. SO EVERY SINGLE RATE IN FRONT OF US FOR RESIDENTIAL FOR 25 30. 7 40.

IT'S CHEAPER THAN WHAT WE'RE ACTUALLY BEING CHARGED. SO VOLUMETRIC. SO IN THEIR VOLUMETRIC BASE RATE RIGHT NOW WE'RE CHARGING AROUND $7 PER 1000 GALLONS ON SEWER AND SO,

[01:20:05]

SO WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT THOSE 20,000 GALLON USERS YOU'RE TALKING, YOU KNOW, PROBABLY 10% ROUGHLY DURING THE YEAR HERE WHEN YOU TALK 30,000 GALLONS WE'RE TALKING 4. WHEN YOU GO INTO SUMMER MONTHS WHERE EVERYONE'S BILLS GO UP BECAUSE EVERYONE'S CONSUMPTION HAS GONE UP IN THIS PAST YEAR. NUMBER OF PEOPLE UNDER 2000. GALLONS IS, YOU KNOW ROUGHLY 12% 10 10 12%

[01:25:08]

THAT REALLY, REALLY PUMP SOME OF THAT USAGE. AND THESE ARE HISTORIC HISTORY, GRAM COUNTS, AND SO THAT'S HOW MANY TIMES IT'S HIT DURING THOSE TIMES. ONE MORE TIME BACK TO THE 15,000 GOING THROUGH THEM REAL FAST, SO SURE. SO AT AT. ONE MORE DATE OF 2000. SO, 2000, WE'RE TALKING NO COST REALLY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THIS VIEW USER RIGHT NEXT ONE UP. WE'RE TALKING 50 CENTS. NO COST DIFFERENCE FOR THIS USER, RIGHT NEXT ONE UP. WE'RE TALKING FOUR BUCKS, RIGHT NEXT ONE UP.

AGAIN. NOW SCENARIO ONE PASSES IT RIGHT. THIS IS THE PLACE FOR SCENARIO. ONE PAST AND AGAIN.

ONLY SEVEN BUCKS. MORE RIGHT. SO, YEAH, IT SEEMS LIKE SCENARIO ONCE. I THINK IT'S REALLY ABOUT HOW MUCH SPACE IS BETWEEN NORTH LAKE AND NORTH LAKE CURRENT. YEAH, YEAH, BECAUSE ON THE LOW VOLUME USERS THAT SPACE IS MUCH CLOSER. YES THAT'S TRUE VOLUME. USERS SPREAD THAT COP, RIGHT ROUGHLY WHEN YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT 20,000 GALLONS YOU'RE REALLY TALKING ABOUT. YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT 20% OF USERS DURING THE SUMMER 20% OF USERS THAT WOULD BE HIGHER THAN THAT.

BUT THE PRICE THAT YOU'RE GOING TO CHARGE AT THAT HIGHER RATE, SO IF I GO ONE SECOND. THIS IS MY TOOL OR JUMP SOMETIMES. THE AMOUNT THAT YOU'RE GONNA CHARGE ANYWHERE BETWEEN 20 AND 30 GALLON WHERE BETWEEN 20 AND 30,000 GALLONS THE PRICE GIVES UP. AND IN STEREO TO IT ACTUALLY IS LOWER. AND IT'S LOWER BECAUSE BASICALLY YOU'RE ASKING PEOPLE WHO ARE BELOW THAT TO PAY MORE CORRECT. AGAIN THE VARIATION IN PRICE BETWEEN THESE IS NOT IT IS COUNCILS PREFERENCE ON THIS, AND IT'S LIKE ONE OF THESE WILL HELP PEOPLE WITH HIGHER BILLS. IF YOU GIVE A SCENARIO ONE DURING THE SUMMER THAT HE WILL PAY MORE, THERE WILL BE SOME ASTRONOMICALLY HIGH BILLS IF THERE'S ASTRONOMICALLY HIGH CONSUMPTION SCENARIO TWO WILL LESSEN THAT A LITTLE BIT. IT WON'T BE AS MUCH BUT I MEAN PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT THEIR BILLS. THERE MIGHT NOT CARE THAT MUCH ABOUT THE DIFFERENCE IN HOW MUCH THIS IS GOING TO BE TOO HIGH. BACK TO THAT 1 5001 MORE, HMM. JUST BECAUSE AGAIN WE'RE LOOKING AT. HMM THAT THE 37 CURRENT LIKE YOU, SAID MR MONTINI TO 47 OR 46, 47 OR 46 OR 46 50. I MEAN, THAT'S THAT'S THE THING THAT PEOPLE ARE GOING TO SEE, RIGHT. THE REASON I KEEP COMING BACK TO THIS IS LIKE I GOT MY BILL AND IT CHANGED BY WHAT? HOW MUCH RIGHT DISASTER GORRITI DOES OF THE TOWN DOESN'T KNOW EVEN HAVING THIS CONVERSATION AND THAT THE RATES ABOUT WHAT WE'RE SEEING HERE IS A $24 INCREASE TOTAL WITH WITH SEWER. YEAH, AND THAT THAT'S A HIT. I MEAN, IT'S RIGHT. YOU KNOW THIS ONE'S A BETTER REPRESENTATION OF WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO SEE MORE PEOPLE LIKE THIS, RIGHT? THIS IS YOUR AVERAGE USUAL RIGHT HERE. THE AVERAGE USER IS GOING TO SEE THIS DIFFERENCE. ROUGHLY $30. SO I HAD MY TWO CENTS. YES SIR. SCENARIO TO GUY ALL THE WAY. ABSOLUTELY. WE'VE DEBATED THIS A LOT. I'M NOT GONNA STRESS IT SOUNDS LIKE THESE GUYS WANT TO GO THE OTHER WAY, WHICH IS FINE, UM I BELIEVE IN SIMPLICITY, SO SIMPLE RATES MAKE IT JUST UNBELIEVABLY EASIER TO COMMUNICATE WITH PEOPLE AND HELP THEM UNDERSTAND THE ABILITY ACCURATE, WHICH IS ALWAYS THE FIRST CUSTOMER SERVICE PROBLEMS BY BILL CAN'T BE ACCURATE. THE SECOND ONE IS, YOU KNOW THOSE FOLKS THAT ARE USING A LOT OF WATER. THEY'RE PAYING A LOT, AND THOSE WILD SWINGS ARE WHAT DRIVE REALLY DIFFICULT CUSTOMER SERVICE CALLS AND I'M ABOUT CUSTOMER SERVICE. AND SO WHEN YOU HAVE SIMPLICITY AND YOU MAKE IT EASIER FOR FOLKS TO UNDERSTAND THAT THEIR BILLS ARE THERE IN CHARGE OF THEIR BILLS AND HOW IT WORKS, THEN WE GET BETTER TRUST AS A SYSTEM PROVIDER. AND SO I LIKE SCENARIO TWO FOR THAT SIMPLICITY SAKE, BUT, UM, IT'S NOT A HILL I'M GONNA DIE ON TODAY. THE RANCH BEAT ME UP ENOUGH. SO WHATEVER YOU GUYS WANT TO DO. TO THE NEXT 1 20,000. I WILL SAY WHAT IS WHEN YOU'RE GETTING INTO THE 20,000? YOU'RE ACTUALLY GETTING INTO OUR LARGER LOT AVERAGE CONSUMPTION. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THAT IS THEY DON'T HAVE STEWARD. SO THIS IS A WINTER AVERAGE OF 10,000. HMM AND 20,000 GALLONS OF WATER. SO IF YOU'RE THINKING LARGE LOT CUSTOMERS AND YOU'RE WORRIED ABOUT THEM, REMEMBER, THEY DON'T HAVE SEWER THAT THEY'RE NOT CHARGING THAT 99 GREEN THING. THERE'S JUST 122 IS THE OTHER SIDE. SO YOU KNOW, I'M GOING TO ASK FOR A CAP RATE ON SEWER. NOT TONIGHT, BUT. IF YOU WANT TO

[01:30:11]

SO THE EXPERIENCE IS SOMEONE FORGETS TO TURN OFF THEIR IRRIGATION BECAUSE IT RUNS AT FIVE A.M. THEY'RE RUNNING AT 20,000 GALLONS THE WAY THEY'VE BEEN RUNNING AT 20,000 GALLONS ALL YEAR LONG, BUT THEY'RE ONLY USING 3 TO 5. GALLONS OF SEWER 5000. THEY GET TO APRIL AND THEIR BILL GOES FROM LAST YEAR. THEY JUST BOUGHT THE HOUSE OR SOMETHING. AND THEY'RE SEWER BILL GOES FROM $50 A MONTH $250 A MONTH AND THEY'RE LIKE, WHAT'S GOING ON, AND THEY'RE CALLING HERE IS GOING TO RESPOND AND SAY SORRY. YOU DIDN'T HAVE A LEAK. YOU ACTUALLY USE THAT AMOUNT OF WATER, BUT IT ISN'T GOING DOWN THE SEWER, AND NOW THEY'RE LEFT WITH THE BILL. THAT'S TRIPLE WHAT IT WAS LAST YEAR FOR THE NEXT YEAR, AND THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I UNDERSTAND THERE IS A DEGREE OF PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY AS WELL. THERE IS, BUT WE'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE MAKING A COMPLICATED SO SOME CITIES HAVE GONE TO A CAP RIGHT ON SUPER JUST BECAUSE 99.9% OF CUSTOMERS DON'T USE 20,000 GALLONS WORTH OF SEWER IN THEIR HOMES. AND IT'S KIND OF CRIMINAL TO BILL. UM FOR A YEAR BECAUSE THEY CAN'T NOW THEY CAN'T ADJUST FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR. IF IT WAS MONTH TO MONTH. I'D SAY, SURE, RIGHT? I WANTED TO WORK WITH THOSE CUSTOMERS AND MAKE SURE THAT IF IT DOES HAPPEN, THAT MAYBE WE CAN FIGURE OUT SOMETHING. ALRIGHT WELL, ENJOY YOUR CONVERSATIONS, JOHN. OKAY, I SEND MY PIECE. YOU GUYS ARE WELCOME TO MAKE MOTIONS AT ANY TIME. WHAT IS YOUR MOTIONS MOST TO APPROVE SCENARIO NUMBER ONE. MOTION APPROVED SCENARIO NUMBER ONE BY COUNCILOR GAN SECONDED BY COUNCILOR SESSIONS. PLEASE VOTE. ALL RIGHT. LET'S GET THE WORD OUT. THANK YOU. UM KAY RESOLUTION 22-71 DISCUSSING FLOCK CAMERAS REPLACED AT THE

[6.K. Consider Resolution 22-71, approving and authorizing the spending authority of the Town Manager regarding the purchase of license plate reader cameras from Flock Camera Systems to be placed at The Ridge, in the amount of $8,600; and updating the current amount paid to Flock Camera Systems to $33,600]

[01:35:10]

[6.L. Consider Resolution 22-72, approving and authorizing the Town Manager to execute an amendment to the professional services contract with Halff Associates, Inc., for the design and construction management for Water Lines A-F, and a Temporary Booster Station, in an amount not to exceed $1,216,150]

THIS IS THE DESIGN CONTRACT FOR THIS PROJECT. WE'VE RECOMMENDING HALF ASSOCIATES. THEY HELPED US WITH THE ANALYSIS AND THEY'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF OUR IMPACT FEE AND OUR CAPITAL. MASTER PLAN FOR WATER AND SEWER SYSTEM. THIS IS THE BREAKDOWN OF THE OF THE COSTS. UM THE DESIGN COSTS. THE TOTAL BUDGET FOR THIS PROJECT IS ROUGHLY 10 MILLION. SO THIS IS THIS IS ABOUT 12% OF THE TOTAL PROJECTS TYPICALLY ENGINEERING CAN BE ANYWHERE FROM 10 TO 20% OF YOUR TOTAL COST OF THE PROJECT. SO THIS IS THIS IS REASONABLE CHARGE AGAIN. THIS IS THE PROJECT. WE'RE JUST TALKING ABOUT. A THROUGH F. WATERLINE G AND THE FUTURE METER TO WOULD BE A PHASE TWO PROJECT. THIS WILL GET US AN ADDITIONAL TWO MG D AND PROVIDE ENOUGH WATER. WITH THE PUMP STATION ENOUGH PRESSURE TO SERVICE THE MAJORITY OF THE WAREHOUSES. IN THIS AREA. THE BOOSTER PUMP STATION WOULD SIT AT VICTORY CIRCLE. THE HATCHED AREA IS THE EXTENT OF THE DEVELOPMENT. THAT'S THE BUCHANAN AND FOSTER TRACKS. NORTH LAKE LOGISTIC CROSSING IN NORTH LAKE 35 LOGISTICS CENTER. NOT VERY CREATIVE ON THEIR NAMING OF THESE PARKS, BUT THAT PRESSURE PUMP WOULD THEN SEND PRESSURE ALONG THE SYSTEM AND PROVIDE ADDITIONAL PRESSURE TO PROJECTS FURTHER FURTHER WEST. IF THERE IS NO PROJECTS FURTHER WEST, WE WOULD WE COULD DELAY THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE PUMP STATION. WE'LL HAVE IT IN KIND OF DESIGNED AND READY TO GO IN THE EVENT THAT WE NEEDED TO DO THAT. BUT UNTIL WE GET WATER METER TO OVER ON THE WEST SIDE. WE'RE GOING TO NEED THIS. CALL IT INTERIM TEMPORARY. IT'S GOING TO BE A SIGNAL, YOU KNOW IT'S GOING TO BE A SIGNIFICANT PIECE OF INFRASTRUCTURE. IT'LL PROBABLY SERVICE 55 TO 10 YEARS DEPENDING ON HOW FISH WE CAN GET THE SECOND WATER METER, SO ANYWAY, THAT'S BIG LATE. ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS. YEAH. WHAT WE'VE BEEN PLANNING ON FOR MONTHS. NO, SIR.

IT'S BEEN A MOTION BY COUNCILOR SESSIONS TOO. RIGHT DOWN, MAN. OKAY? ALL RIGHT. WE HAVE A SECOND BY COUNCILOR GANZ. BEFORE WE GO TO VOTE. I JUST HAVE A COUPLE QUESTIONS. SO ON THE

[01:40:01]

YOU DON'T HAVE TO PICK THEM, BUT YOU CAN'T DO A TRADITIONAL LOWEST. ONE WINS. THIS IS WE'RE JUST NOT RECOGNIZE OUR RECOMMENDATION IS THAT THE COST OF REASONABLE THEY'RE VERY FAMILIAR WITH OUR SYSTEM THERE IN THE MIDDLE OF A, UM AH, MASTER PLANNING OF OUR SYSTEM AND FOOTWORK IS PRE APPROVED THEM VERY COMFORTABLE WITH THIS FIRM TO DO THIS PROJECT BECAUSE VISUAL. AS YOU RECALL. THIS IS GOING TO BE THEIR SYSTEM. AND SO THAT WAS THAT WAS ANOTHER FACTOR IN IN, UM IN DECIDING ON RECOMMENDING HALF TO THE TO THE COUNCIL. OKAY, THAT'S THAT'S WHEN I WAS LOOKING FOR BECAUSE WE DID USE. I MEAN, WE DO HAVE A RECOMMENDATION FOR ANOTHER FIRM TO DO DESIGN WORK FOR A DIFFERENT PROJECT. AND I JUST WANT TO UNDERSTAND ALL THE COMPONENTS OF THE RECOMMENDATION. GET THOSE ON THE PUBLIC RECORD, SO THANK YOU.

ALRIGHT I WILL OPEN THE FOR VOTING IF THERE'S NO OTHER COMMENTS. THANK YOU, GENTLEMEN.

[6.M. Consider Resolution 22-73, approving and authorizing the Town Manager to execute an amendment to the professional services contract with Plummer for the design and construction management of Denton Creek Regional Wastewater Interceptor for the City of Justin and Town of Northlake, in an amount not to exceed $231,665]

BUT THEN THAT SAVINGS WERE GET GETTING WILL THEN USE TO FUND THEIR PART OF THE SYSTEM BECAUSE IT'S TWO LEGS SYSTEM AND SO WE'LL USE THOSE SAVINGS FOR OUR PROPORTIONAL COSTS IN THEIR LEG OF THIS TRUNK LINE. SO ANYWAY, THIS IS THE RECOMMENDATION AND ASK THAT YOU MAKE IT CONTINGENT IF YOU CHOOSE TO. CHOOSE TO GO FORWARD WITH THIS. COUNSELORS. YOU MAY RECOMMEND OR NOT. I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE AMENDMENT OF THE PLUMBER DESIGN CONTRACT CONTINGENT ON THE JUSTIN. I SEE BEING APPROVED. I HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE CONTINGENT. AND SECONDED BY COUNCILOR KICKER. DID YOU HAVE ANYTHING ELSE ABOUT THIS? OKAY AND SIMILAR TO THE LAST ONE. MY COMMENT ABOUT DESIGN FIRM WERE ALREADY USING PLUMBER FOR THIS, SO THIS IS JUST AN AMENDMENT TO THE EXISTING ONE, AND PLUMMER WAS SELECTED BECAUSE THEY HAVE A SPECIFIC SKILL SET IN THIS PARTICULAR DESIGN. WELL THERE'S ANOTHER CONCEPT OF NOT PUTTING ALL YOUR EGGS IN ONE BASKET. AND SO WE DO TRY TO FIND THE BEST AND MOST EFFICIENT. WE DID A WE DID IT. OUR FQ AND PLUMBER HAS, UM A LOT OF EXPERIENCE WITH T R A. THEY DO A NUMBER OF PROJECTS WITH THEM AND SO THAT THAT WAS AS WE WENT THROUGH THAT PROCESS AS WELL IN THE DESIGNING DESIGNING FACTORS.

I THOUGHT I REMEMBERED THAT. OKAY, THANK YOU. VOTING IS OPEN, GENTLEMEN, UNLESS YOU HAVE ANYTHING ELSE TO SAY. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. ALRIGHT ITEM IN RESOLUTION 22-74 CALLING FOR A

[6.N. Consider Resolution 22-74, calling for a thorough audit and review of Argyle Fire District’s operations and financial records, and the proposed absorption of the Argyle Fire District by the Denton County Emergency Services District]

[01:45:04]

IT'S ABOUT THIS, BUT BEFORE WE GO DOWN THIS PATH, I JUST WANT TO SAY A FEW THINGS. SO NUMBER ONE. UM A COUPLE WEEKS AGO, THEY WERE INDICTMENTS AGAINST THE FORMER FIRE CHIEF FOR TEMPORARY OR I'M NOT SURE EXACTLY THE STATUS AT THE MOMENT, FIRE CHIEF THAT WE'VE HAD FOR MAYBE 30 YEARS HERE. IN IN THIS AREA FOR THE ARGYLE FIRE, VOLUNTEER FIRE DISTRICT AND THE FBI ARRESTED AND INDICTED THEM FOR 15 COUNTS . I BELIEVE IT WAS OF EMBEZZLEMENT FRAUD. AND, UM, STATEMENTS MADE TO AGENCIES THAT WERE WRONG. AND AS A RESULT, THERE'S BEEN A UNWINDING OF SIMILAR SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF. INTEREST IN PULLING BACK THE CURTAIN AND A LOT OF THINGS ARE BEING BROUGHT FORWARD RIGHT NOW TRYING TO AVOID TALKING ABOUT SPECIFIC ISSUES HERE. AND JUST SUMMARIZE THEM. THIS IS A IF PROVEN TRUE, AND THIS IS A COURT CASE, SO WE NEED TO BE CAREFUL WHAT WE SAY HERE. UM IF PROVEN TRUE, THIS IS A GROSS ABUSE OF THE PUBLIC TRUST. AND ONE THAT I WANTED TO LOUDLY PROCLAIM. FROM NORTH LAKE SIDE AS THE LARGEST ENTITY IN THE SD. UM, THAT WE CONDEMN THIS IN THE STRONGEST POSSIBLE TERMS. AND ANY OTHER PERSON THAT WOULD ACT IN THIS MANNER ANYWHERE IN THE PUBLIC TRUST. I WOULD FURTHER SAY THAT THIS IS A HIGHLY EMBARRASSING THING FOR THE BOARDS WHO HAVE RESPONSIBILITY FOR SECURITY AND OVERSIGHT OF THE FINANCIAL ASSETS IN THE S D AND THE A B F D EXPLAIN THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO AND A SECOND. BUT THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF CONFUSION ABOUT HOW THESE ENTITIES OPERATE THERE. THERE IN A LONG TERM TRANSITION FROM A PRIVATE ENTITY TO A PUBLIC ONE, AND THERE'S A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF MISTAKES THAT HAVE BEEN MADE. IT APPEARS SO FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS, WE'VE BEEN UNTANGLING THAT WITH THE COUNTY WITH THE SD WITH THE FIREMAN WHO HAVE A LOT TO SAY ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR TOPIC.

RECOGNIZE MR SAM JOHNSON HERE TONIGHT? THANK YOU FOR YOUR SPECIFIC SERVICE IN THIS AREA AND CALLING ATTENTION TO IT FOR A VERY LENGTHY PERIOD OF TIME. AND I'M I'M GLAD IN ONE WAY THAT THIS IS FINALLY BEING EXPOSED FOR WHAT IT IS AND WHAT WE SUSPECTED MAY HAVE BEEN OCCURRING ALONG THE WAY BUT COULD NEVER GET PROOF OF OR OR GET ANY ANYONE TO REALLY DIG INTO IT AND EXPOSE IT FOR US. AT THIS POINT. ALL THE ENTITIES INVOLVED. ALL THE CITIES INVOLVED. THE TWO CONTRACTS WITH THE CITY OF DENTON AND THE MUNICIPALITY OF LANTANA. ARE ALL ENGAGING AND VOICING THEIR OPINIONS ON THIS TOPIC AND PUSHING FORWARD WITH STRUCTURAL CHANGES. A LOT OF DIFFERENT IDEAS ARE COMING FORWARD. LOT OF DETAILED THINGS NEED TO HAPPEN.

BUT FOR THE TOWN OF NORTH LAKE AND TO KEEP US KIND OF, YOU KNOW, AT THE HIGH LEVEL HERE WITHOUT GETTING INTO SPECIFIC DETAILS, THERE ARE LEADERS THAT ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS BOARD.

THEY'RE RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT ENTITY. THIS IS OUTSIDE OUR JURISDICTION. BUT JUST BECAUSE IT'S OUTSIDE OUR JURISDICTION DOESN'T MEAN WE'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE A SAY. AND SOMETHING LIKE THIS. SO ON BEHALF OF THE FIREFIGHTERS WHO I BELIEVE DESERVE RECOGNITION FOR WHAT THEY HAVE HAD TO SUFFER FOR THE CONFUSION AND FOR THE OUTRIGHT THEFT THAT WAS PERPETRATED AGAINST THEM. IT APPEARS AND COURT CASE WILL WILL BEAR THAT OUT. I BELIEVE I'M PUTTING FORWARD TONIGHT. THIS PROPOSED RESOLUTION. RESOLUTION NUMBER 22-74 RESOLUTION OF THE TOWN COUNCIL, THE TOWN IN NORTH LAKE, TEXAS, CALLING FOR A FORENSIC AUDIT OF THE OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL RECORDS OF DENTON COUNTY EMERGENCY SERVICE DISTRICT NUMBER ONE AND THE ARGYLE FIRE DISTRICT AND PROPOSING WITH RL FIRE DISTRICT B AREA IRREVOCABLY DISSOLVED AND ABSORBED BY DENTON COUNTY EMERGENCY SERVICE DISTRICT NUMBER ONE WHEREAS THE TOWN OF NORTH LAKE IS A HOME RULE MUNICIPALITY ORGANIZED IN THE CONSTITUTION AND LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS, WHEREAS THE EMERGENCY SERVICE DISTRICT NUMBER ONE WAS ESTABLISHED WITH VOTER APPROVAL IN 2006 TO PROVIDE FIRE PROTECTION, FIRE PREVENTION EDUCATION. AND EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES AND VARIOUS MUNICIPALITIES, INCLUDING IN THE TOWN OF NORTH LAKE AND WHEREAS ITS CREATION USD NUMBER ONE IS CONTRACTED FOR SERVICES WITH ARGYLE FIRE

THEY JUST WERE NOT AWARE. AND OR NOT CAPABLE OF GETTING TO THE INFORMATION. THERE'S TWO SEPARATE ENTITIES HERE INVOLVED , AND THAT'S PART OF THE SHELL THAT WAS ABLE TO KIND OF HIDE THIS BEHAVIOR FOR MANY YEARS. WE DON'T KNOW HOW FAR BACK IT GOES YET, BUT ALL THIS INFORMATION WILL BE COMING FORTH AND WE EXPECT THROUGH THE CRIMINAL CASE PROCESS, SO I JUST WANT TO MAKE THAT DISTINCTION. THIS IS NOT TARGETED AN INDIVIDUAL, HOWEVER. SHOULD ANYBODY BE IMPLICATED FURTHER IN THIS PROCESS? WE CERTAINLY WOULD. STAND AGAINST THEM AS WELL. SO THERE WILL BE A LOT OF CHANGES COMING AND WILL BE MONITORING THOSE CLOSELY ON BEHALF OF THE TOWN OF NORTH LAKE AND AGAIN. APOLOGIZE TO SAM TO YOUR FIREFIGHTERS FOR WHAT THEY'VE SUFFERED. THAT IS, THIS IS ABSOLUTELY INAPPROPRIATE AND IT'S OUR INTENTION TO SEE THAT THESE ENTITIES, MAKE SURE THEY MAKE YOU WHOLE. AND FIX THIS PROCESS, SO IT DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN, SO I'LL STOP THERE.

COUNSELORS. THE FLOOR IS OPEN FOR ANYTHING YOU MIGHT WANT TO SAY OR ASK ME ABOUT THAT OR WHAT WE'RE DOING ON THIS PROCESS. UM BUT I SUBMIT TO YOU THIS RESOLUTION AND I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO THAT EFFECT. BUT THE FLOOR IS OPEN FOR YOUR QUESTIONS. THIS RESULT IN ANY INCREASED COSTS OF THE TOWN OF NORTH LAKE. THE TAX RATE THIS YEAR WAS LOWERED FROM 10 CENTS TO 9.3. THE FIRE DISTRICT IS PROBABLY UNDERFUNDED FOR WHAT THEY NEED TO OPERATE. THERE'S A LOT OF WORK BEING DONE LOOKING BACK TO SEE IF THERE'S ANY LIABILITY TO THE ARG. RALPH FIRE DISTRICT. THERE'S PROBABLY SOME SIGNIFICANT LIABILITY COMING AS WELL AS DAMAGES AND MONEY OWED BACK TO THE FIREFIGHTERS AND A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT AREAS REMAINS TO BE SEEN. HOW MUCH

[01:55:05]

PROTECTION SERVICE PROVIDED TO US SO YES, SIR. THAT'S WHAT WE'RE CALLING FOR. IT DOESN'T SEEM TO ME THAT THAT'S WHAT THIS SAYS. I MEAN, THE FACT THAT THEY'RE DISSOLVED. LOOKS TO ME LIKE WE'RE ACCEPTING THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES AND I DON'T THINK IT OUGHT TO BE THE PEOPLE OF NORTH LAKE THAT HAVE TO ACCEPT THOSE RESPONSIBILITIES. WE'RE NOT ACCEPTING THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES, THAT ENTITY WILL PROBABLY COLLAPSE. BUT WE ARE WE ARE TAKING THE EMPLOYEES BASICALLY OUT OF THERE, GIVING THEM NEW EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS WITH THE COUNTY. AND THEN OPERATING FIRE SAFETY OF THE SD. THEY WERE BASICALLY ALREADY WORKING FOR THE SD. THERE'S JUST UNDER A SUBJECT MOVING THEM UP. ONE LEVEL FRAUD OCCURRED WITHIN THAT ENTITY. AND SO THE CASES AND LAWSUITS AND WHATEVER ELSE COMES AS A RESULT OF IT ALL HAPPENS WITHIN OUR GAL FILE FIRE VOLUNTEER DISTRICT AND AT ANY TIME THE ENTITIES THAT PAY INTO IT CAN STOP PAYING INTO IT, PROVIDE FIRE SERVICE AND LET IT COLLAPSE. IMPLOSION IS INEVITABLE. WE NEED THOSE EMPLOYEES WORKING FOR THE DISTRICT THAT WEREN'T IMPLODE AND THIS CALLS FOR THAT.

DISSOLUTION THAT CALLS FOR THE BOARDS TO EXPEDITE THAT PROCESS AND GET THE EMPLOYEES OVER TO AN ENTITY THAT WE CAN CONTROL AND HAVE TRANSPARENCY ON IS FROM YOUR. COLLECTION OF DATA OVER TIME. IS THIS WHAT THE EMPLOYEES WANT? AS WELL AS THIS WHAT EMPLOYEES OF THEIR GOLF FIRE IN THE END IN THE END, SO THEY HAVE BROUGHT FORWARD THEIR CONCERNS ABOUT BEING UM, THEIR THEIR PENSION BEING RESTORED BEFORE THEY MOVE, AND THAT PROCESS CAN HAPPEN BEFORE OR AFTER, BUT THEY NEED TO BE ASSURED OF THAT, YOU KNOW, BEING REFUNDED FOR THE MONEY'S. I HAVE NOT BEEN CREDIT TO THEM. THEY HAVE OTHER EMPLOYMENT CONCERNS THAT NEED TO BE RESOLVED WITH THAT ENTITY, AND SO THEY WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT AS THEY COME OVER CERTAIN EMPLOYEES ARE PROTECTED THEIR PENSIONS WOULD CHANGE. INVESTING IS A BIG DEAL. THEY WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERY EMPLOYEE IS MADE WHOLE FOR DURING THE CHANGE, AND SO THERE'S A NEGOTIATION PROCESS THAT HAS TO HAPPEN IN ORDER FOR THAT TO TAKE PLACE, BUT IN GENERAL THEY DO WANT OUT FROM UNDER THE OVERSIGHT OF THE ARGUMENT FIRE DISTRICT, BUT THE PROCESS BY DOING SO NEEDS TO BE RESPECTFUL TO THEIR EMPLOYMENT, RIGHT. I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE WE'RE NOT ADDING INSULT TO INJURY. YEAH. IN THIS PROCESS.

AND I'VE SEEN WHAT THE JUDGE IS ALREADY DONE AND HIS DECLARATION WITH THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.

READ THROUGH THAT, SO I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE TAKE A SANDY JACK AND MAKE SURE THAT'S WHAT THE ULTIMATELY, WOULD YOU LIKE TO COME UP AND INTRODUCE YOURSELF? HE REPRESENTS THE FIREFIGHTERS. AND IF YOU, UM I WOULD WELCOME A SHORT STATEMENT FROM YOU IN RESPONSE TO THIS IS SAM JOHNSON. I'M ACTUALLY A RESIDENT HERE AT 916 MEADOWS OF HARVEST. I'M ALSO THE ASSOCIATION REPRESENTING REPRESENTATIVE OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE LOCAL 51 90 IS RECOGNIZED WAS RECOGNIZED BY THE F F AND THE TEXAS STATE ASSOCIATION. SO WE'VE BEEN WORKING THROUGH THIS PROCESS QUITE A BIT. THE MAYOR HAS OFFERED A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF SUPPORT, AND I DO WANT TO THANK YOU FOR THAT AND THE TIME FOR SUPPORTING US THROUGH THIS CHANGE. THERE IS A LOT OF LAYERS

THEY'VE BEEN THEY'VE BEEN THE MAIN REASON FOR THE DELAY FROM THAT YELLOW CIRCLE DOWN TO THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE IS OUR CURRENT TEMPORARY ROAD THAT WE'RE USING .

[6.O. Consider Ordinance 22-1208D, approving the issuance and sale of “Town of Northlake, Texas, Combination Tax and Limited Surplus Revenue Certificates of Obligation, Series 2022” and approving various documents related to such certificates of obligation]

THANK YOU, MAYOR. AH WHO WERE GETTING FOR THIS ONE? JONAH, INTRODUCE OUR FINANCIAL ADVISOR.

THIS IS MURDER SHOE WITH HILLTOP SECURITIES. I'M ABOUT TO PASS YOU GUYS OUT. ARE THAT SELL? THANK YOU. GOOD EVENING MAYOR, PARTUM COUNSELOR MARTY SHOE WITH HILLTOP SECURITIES REPRESENT THE TOWN IS YOUR FINANCIAL ADVISOR HERE TONIGHT TO PRESENT THE RESULTS OF YOUR BOND SALE? THAT'S HOW NON SOLD CERTIFICATES OF OBLIGATION TODAY. THIS MORNING THEY WERE RELEASED FOR SALE TO THE OPEN MARKET. THEY WERE SOLD THROUGH A NEGOTIATED SALE AND SAM CO. YOUR UNDERWRITER WAS ABLE TO PROVIDE A BID TO UNDERWRITE YOUR BONDS, WHICH PRODUCED A FINAL TRUE INTEREST COSTS OR 3.73% SO WE PUT TOGETHER JUST THESE BRIEF BOOKLETS TO KIND OF SUMMARIZE THE INFORMATION OF THE FINAL STRUCTURE OF THE DEBT. UM AND TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF WHERE THAT RIGHT SITS. WE HAVE BEEN IN A RISING INTEREST RATE ENVIRONMENT , AS MOST OF YOU ARE PROBABLY AWARE, SO WE'VE SEEN A LOT OF VOLATILITY IN OUR MARKET. IN THE LAST SIX MONTHS, I'VE SEEN SIMILARLY PRICED TRANSACTIONS, UM, COMING AT RATES ANYWHERE FROM 3.6 TO 4.1. SO I'M HAPPY TO REPORT THAT YOU ARE AT THE BOTTOM END OF THAT BELL CURVE. UM AND A LARGE PART OF THAT IS DUE IN, UM DUE IN PART TO THE STRONG OR FAVORABLE CREDIT RATING OF THE TOWN. SO YOU MAY RECALL. I WAS OUT HERE PREVIOUSLY WHEN WE PRESENTED THE PRELIMINARY OFFICIAL STATEMENT, AND WE KIND OF WENT OVER THE WRITING PROCESS IS PART OF THE NORMAL BOND ISSUANCE PROCESS THE TOWN DID HAVE TO APPLY FOR AND PURCHASE A BOND RATING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS ISSUANCE.

UM AND JUST TO RECAP THE CREDIT RATING. EXCUSE ME OF THE TOWN IS VERY SIMILAR TO OUR OWN PERSONAL CREDIT WRITING, SO THE HIGHER YOUR PERSONAL CREDIT RATING IS THE LOWER THE COST OF BORROWING WHEN YOU GO OUT TO PURCHASE A HOME OR CAR, SAME HOLDS TRUE FOR THE TOWN. UM THE HIGHER THE CREDIT RATING, THE LOWER THE COST OF BORROWING WHEN IT ISSUES BONDS. SO THE TOWN DID HAVE TO MEET WITH S AND P GLOBAL AND PROVIDE A LOT OF INFORMATION, ANSWER A LOT OF QUESTIONS SO THAT THEY COULD CONDUCT A FULL CREDIT ASSESSMENT ON THE TOWN AND I AM PLEASED TO REPORT THAT S AND P GLOBAL DID AFFIRM THE DEVIL A CREDIT RATING OF THE TOWN. IT'S AN EXCELLENT CREDIT RATING. I THINK IT'S SIGNIFICANT TO NOTE. THERE ARE ONLY TWO CREDIT NOTCHES ABOVE THAT UNTIL YOU GET TO PERFECT SCORE, SO YOU'RE IN A VERY ELITE CATEGORY. OF RATINGS. THEY DID RELEASE A FULL WRITING REPORT IN CONNECT. THANK YOU, FROG IN MY THROAT. THEY DID RELEASE A FULL REPORT.

[02:10:08]

AND AGAIN, ALL IN ALL, WE BELIEVE YOU SHOULD BE PLEASED. THINK THESE ARE VERY FAVORABLE RESULTS. THIS IS THE LAST STEP OF THE BOND ISSUANCE PROCESS. SO BY ADOPTING THE ORDINANCE TONIGHT YOU ARE EFFECTIVELY ACCEPTING THIS BID TO UNDERWRITE LOCK IN THIS RIGHT IN PLACE.

THESE PAYMENTS WILL BE FIXED FOR THE LIFE OF THE BONDS. THEY WILL THEN GO TO THE ATTORNEY GENERAL FOR THEIR APPROVAL. AND YOU WILL CLOSE AND THE FUNDS WILL BE DELIVERED TO THE TOWN ON JANUARY 3RD. JANUARY 3RD. YES I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE. COUNCIL. YEAH QUESTIONS. I'M VERY SURPRISED THAT THE INTEREST RATE TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH, I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE OVER FOUR. I REALLY DID. TIMING IS EVERYTHING WE HAVE. FORTUNATELY WE HAVE SEEN RATES COME UP DOWN REALLY IN THE LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS, SO BETTER TO BE LUCKY THAN GOOD, RIGHT? THANK YOU. AT THIS POINT, I'LL ENTERTAIN MOTIONS. THIS IS PROCESS THAT WE'VE STARTED QUITE A LONG TIME AGO, AND EVERYBODY'S BEEN ON BOARD WITH, SO IT'S KIND OF CONTINUOUS. BUT WE DO NEED TO TAKE FORMAL ACTION.
