[00:00:05]

MARCH 12TH. I'M GOING TO CALL THE TOWN COUNCIL MEETING TO ORDER. WE HAVE ALL COUNCILORS PRESENT AND WE'RE GOING TO START TONIGHT WITH THE INVOCATION. PASTOR BEN, HOW ARE YOU DOING, BEN? DOING WELL. HOW ARE YOU GUYS? VERY GOOD. THAT'S AWESOME. LET'S OPEN WITH THE VERSE OF THE DAY. IT'S FROM ROMANS FIVE, VERSE ONE. THEREFORE, SINCE WE HAVE BEEN MADE RIGHT IN GOD'S SIGHT BY FAITH, WE HAVE PEACE WITH GOD BECAUSE OF WHAT JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD HAS DONE FOR US. LORD GOD, WE THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE PEACE THAT WE HAVE WITH YOU THROUGH YOUR SON JESUS CHRIST, THROUGH HIS DEATH AND RESURRECTION FOR US. LORD, I PRAY THAT YOU WOULD BRING PEACE TO YOUR WORLD. PEACE TO OUR OUR COUNTRY, PEACE TO OUR STATE, AND AND EVEN PEACE RIGHT HERE IN NORTH LAKE. LORD, WE LIFT UP TO YOU ALL OF OUR FIRST RESPONDERS, OUR PUBLIC WORKS WORKERS, OUR BUSINESS OWNERS AND, AND WORKERS. THEY'RE ALL OF OUR, OUR CITIZENS. WE PRAY, LORD, ESPECIALLY TODAY FOR LEANNE CRAWFORD, THAT YOU WOULD JUST LEAD DOCTORS TO A DIAGNOSIS AND A REMEDY FOR THE HEALTH ISSUES THAT SHE IS FACING. LORD, WE CELEBRATE WITH THE TOWN HALL. 101 GRADUATES TODAY, AND WE THANK YOU FOR THE TIME AND ENERGY THEY'VE PUT INTO THIS PROGRAM AND THOSE WHO HAVE LED IT AS WELL, GUIDE ALL THE DISCUSSIONS AND CONVERSATIONS THAT ARE HAPPENING TODAY, LORD, THAT THEY WOULD BE DONE ACCORDING TO YOUR WILL AND ARE PLEASING TO YOU. IT'S IN THE PRECIOUS NAME OF JESUS OUR SAVIOR, I PRAY. AMEN. PLEASE STAND FOR OUR PLEDGES. OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND TO THE REPUBLIC FOR WHICH IT STANDS. ONE NATION UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE, WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL. I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THEE. TEXAS. ONE STATE UNDER GOD, ONE INDIVISIBLE. ALL RIGHT. DREW, DID YOU HAVE AN UPDATE ON WATER SITUATION OR JUST WANT TO NARRATE THAT FOR PEOPLE HERE? YES, SIR. LATE THIS AFTERNOON, CONTRACTOR HIT A LINE ON MULKEY PAST CURRENT DEVELOPMENT TOWARDS NEW DEVELOPMENT. IT DID NOT AFFECT DID NOT CUT ANY WATER OFF FROM RESIDENTS. WE WERE ABLE TO ISOLATE THE BREAK AND WE DID NOT DROP BELOW 20 PSI. SO THERE WILL BE NO WATER BOIL NOTICE REPEAT, NO WATER BOIL NOTICE AND I'M WITHIN PROBABLY LESS THAN AN HOUR CRUISE THE PUMP. THEY THEY ISOLATED, THE PUMP, ENGAGED, AND WE GOT THE PRESSURES BACK TO THE NORMAL 70 TO 80 PSI RANGE. SO GREAT JOB, PUBLIC WORKS. ERIC AND HIS CREWS RESPONSE WAS INCREDIBLY FAST. SO I APPRECIATE ALL THE HARD WORK TO GET THAT RESOLVED QUICKLY SO OUR RESIDENTS DIDN'T HAVE TO GO WITHOUT WATER. NEXT WE'RE GOING TO DO REAL QUICK COUNCIL UPDATES. I THINK MR. FOWLER HAD SOME, I APPRECIATE THAT. SO BACK IN THE FALL, I HAD THE VERY FORTUNATE OPPORTUNITY TO CONGRATULATE SOME OF OUR LOCAL SPORTS TEAMS THAT WON A STATE TITLE IN VOLLEYBALL. SO TONIGHT WE HAVE ANOTHER STATE CHAMPION, THE ARGYLE LADY EAGLES WENT THIS PAST WEEK TO THE STATE TOURNAMENT AND THEY WON. THEY BEAT FRISCO MEMORIAL I THINK 5241 IN THE SEMIFINAL. AND THEN IN THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP GAME, THEY BEAT BARBOURSVILLE 5142. THE REASON THAT I LIKE TO PRESENT THIS, BECAUSE WE HAVE A FEW YOUNG LADIES ON THOSE TEAMS THAT ARE RESIDENTS HERE IN NORTH LAKE, ADDISON, SIMMS AND KINSLEY VEST ARE ALL RESIDENTS HERE AND WANT TO SAY CONGRATULATIONS TO THEM. JUST TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE BIT OF BACKGROUND ON THE THE GIRLS BASKETBALL TEAM, IF YOU'RE NOT VERY FAMILIAR WITH THEM, THIS IS THEIR 11TH TRIP TO THE STATE TOURNAMENT SINCE THE SCHOOL'S BEEN OPEN. THEY APPEARED IN THE STATE FINALS SEVEN YEARS IN A ROW FROM 2013 TO 2019, AND THEY WON FIVE CONSECUTIVE FROM 2014 TO 2018. THEY WENT AGAIN IN 2022, WHERE THEY LOST IN THE SEMIFINALS, AND THEY WENT BACK FOR THE FIRST TIME AS A5A SCHOOL, AND THEY JUST COMPETED AND WON THE FIRST FIVE STATE TITLES. SO I WANT TO CONGRATULATE THEM ON A JOB WELL DONE. IF YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS BASKETBALL IN THIS AREA, I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO GO TO DO IT. I WAS NEVER A FAN UNTIL I GOT HERE TO THE AREA AND WATCHED THEM PLAY, AND THEY ARE TREMENDOUS YOUNG LADIES WHO WORK EXTREMELY HARD AND DO A GREAT JOB. NOT ONLY THAT, BUT EVERY SINGLE MEMBER OF THAT TEAM MADE THE ACADEMIC ALL STATE TEAM FOR U.I.L SO VERY INTELLIGENT IN THE CLASSROOM AND HARD WORKING ON

[00:05:01]

OTHER COUNCILORS, ON A STAFF NOTE TO YOU ALL, IF YOU WANT TO TAKE ADDITIONAL TOURS, JUST LET THEM KNOW AND WE'LL GET THAT SCHEDULED. ALRIGHT. ANYTHING ELSE BEFORE WE MOVE ON? ALL

[2.A. Presentation - Recognition of Town Hall 101 Graduates]

IS THERE ONE OF THE TOWN'S STRATEGIC GOALS? GOOD EVENING. COUNCIL MAYOR WAS TO DEVELOP AREAS THAT WE COULD TALK ABOUT NORTH LAKE. WE COULD SHARE THE HISTORY OF NORTH LAKE. WE COULD EDUCATE PEOPLE ABOUT THE TOWN'S FUNCTIONS. PLEASE BEAT ME TO THE PUNCH WITH THE CITIZEN POLICE ACADEMY. GREAT PROGRAM. WE FOLLOWED WITH THE TOWN HALL 101 AND WE HAVE. WE COVER A NUMBER OF THINGS, MAINLY OUR DEPARTMENTS. WE DON'T HAVE MANY, BUT WE ALSO TALK ABOUT OUR HISTORY. HOW THE HECK DO WE GET THE NAME NORTH LAKE? ALL THOSE ALL THOSE GOOD STUFF. WHAT WHAT WE ARE, THIS IS OUR FOURTH CLASS AND SO WANT TO HONOR THEM. WE HAVE SOME CERTIFICATES FOR THEM, BUT HERE ARE ALL THE THE 2026 GRADUATES OF TOWN HALL 101 AND I HAVE SOME UNATTESTED IF ANYBODY WANTS TO ADMIT TO MAKING THESE COMMENTS. BUT HERE'S SOME TESTIMONIALS OF OF TOWN HALL 101. AND WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET ALL OUR BOARD MEMBERS AND OTHER PEOPLE THAT COUNCIL AND MAYOR HAVE DIRECTED TO THIS CLASS, BUT WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO WORK ON THIS AND OPEN IT UP. AND SO ANYWAY, ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT TOWN HALL 101 OR COMMENTS? IF NOT, WE'VE GOT SOME. ONE QUESTION IS HOW LONG UNTIL THE NEXT ONE? BECAUSE I HAVE PEOPLE ASKING ALREADY. SO WE USUALLY GO FROM NOVEMBER TO THE 1ST OF MARCH. SO AND WE TRY TO DO IT ON MONDAY NIGHTS. WE DO IT ABOUT EVERY OTHER MONDAY NIGHT. WE HAVE LOST ONE OF OUR ROOMS, OUR POLICE COMMUNITY ROOM. NOW IT'S GOING TO BE. IT'S. IT WAS REMODELED THE NIGHT AFTER OUR LAST CLASS OR THE MORNING AFTER OUR LAST CLASS. THE CHIEF WAS KICKING ME OUT, MOVING TABLES OUT. SO WE'RE RUNNING OUT OF ROOM. AND THAT'S A WHOLE OTHER TOPIC. BUT YES, WE'LL WE'LL START IN NOVEMBER. BUT IF WE IF WE GET ENOUGH DEMAND, WE USUALLY HAVE ABOUT 12. AND BECAUSE EVERYBODY'S SO BUSY THIS YEAR, WE ONLY HAD NINE MAKE IT THROUGH, BUT WE HAVE A. WE DECIDED THE CLASSMATES DECIDED THAT IF YOU MISS MORE THAN TWO MEETINGS THAT YOU NEED TO WITHDRAW. AND SO. BUT YES. NOVEMBER. EXCELLENT. THANK YOU. WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DO IS WE'RE GOING TO HAND OUT CERTIFICATES FOR THOSE THAT ARE HERE TONIGHT. WE'RE GOING TO DO A QUICK PHOTO WITH EACH OF YOU. AND THEN WE CAN PROBABLY DO A CLASS PHOTO AS WELL. SO LET'S GET THAT

[00:10:04]

YEAH, THEY'RE ALL AT THE BACK HERE. ALL RIGHT. TRACY HONEYCUTT. VALERIE MADIGAN.

I'LL TELL YOU WHY Y'ALL ARE TAKING PICTURES. ONE THING THAT'S COME OUT OF THIS CLASS IS EVERYONE THAT'S TAKEN IT HAS TURNED INTO LIKE AN ADVOCATE OR AN EXPERT ABOUT THE TOWN, THAT IF THERE'S THINGS GOING ON IN THE TOWN THAT THEY HAVE ANSWERS, THAT SOMETIMES THEY CAN GET TO THINGS FASTER THAN WE CAN AND THAT THEY HAVE THE AWARENESS BECAUSE THEY WENT THROUGH THE CLASS. SO THAT'S SOMETHING I REALLY APPRECIATE. ALL RIGHT. THE RUSTLERS CERTIFICATES FOR

[2.B. Presentation - Methodist Southlake Hospital Introduction & Overview]

GOOD EVENING TEAM, AND THANK YOU ALL FOR GIVING ME A COUPLE OF MINUTES TO JUST EXPLAIN WHO WE ARE IN METHODIST SOUTHLAKE. IT'S ABOUT 20 MINUTES SOUTH. WE ARE THE NEWEST HOSPITAL HERE IN THE AREA. FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO DON'T KNOW, WE ARE PART OF METHODIST HEALTH SYSTEM. SO METHODIST HEALTH SYSTEM WAS FOUNDED BACK IN 1927 IN SOUTH DALLAS. A GROUP OF METHODIST MINISTERS CAME TO THE AREA AND SAID, THERE'S NO HEALTH CARE DOWN THERE. 100 YEARS LATER, WE'RE STILL ONE OF THE ONLY ONES DOWN IN SOUTH DALLAS. AND THAT'S ALWAYS BEEN OUR MISSION AS A NONPROFIT, FAITH BASED ORGANIZATION. AND SO WE WERE FOUNDED AND STARTED IN DALLAS.

AND BACK IN 2005, WE HAD TWO HOSPITALS, METHODIST DALLAS AND THEN ALSO METHODIST CHARLTON, SOUTH DALLAS WITH TWO FAMILY PRACTICE OR THREE FAMILY PRACTICE CLINICS. WHERE WE STAND TODAY IN 2026 IS WITH OVER 130 ACCESS POINTS IN DALLAS FORT WORTH. WE WILL NEVER BE THE NUMBER ONE LARGEST HEALTH SYSTEM IN DFW. OUR FOCUS MORE IS BE NUMBER ONE IN OUR PRIMARY SERVICE AREA. AND FOR METHODIST, SOUTHLAKE NORTH LAKE IS PART OF OUR PRIMARY SERVICE AREA AS WE GROW. SO AS YOU SEE IN THIS SLIDE HERE IS A LOT OF DOTS, A LOT OF DOTS. AND WHAT THIS SIGNIFIES IS INVESTMENTS FROM OUR HEALTH SYSTEM INTO THESE COMMUNITIES TO MAKE SURE OUR PATIENTS ARE GETTING GREAT CARE AND IMPROVING AND SAVING LIVES THROUGH QUALITY, COMPASSIONATE CARE. SO AT SOUTHLAKE SPECIFICALLY, SO WE ARE LOCATED RIGHT OFF OF 114 IN WHITE CHAPEL. WE USED TO LIKE TO CALL IT. IT'S THE WEIRD WHITE BUILDING ON 114 WHERE PRIOR TO METHODIST TAKING OVER, METHODIST TOOK OVER THIS HOSPITAL IN SORRY. IN JUNE OF 2021. I JOINED IN NOVEMBER OF 2021. AND SO FROM THEN, IT WAS A CONVERSION FROM A JOINT VENTURE SURGICAL HOSPITAL TO A COMMUNITY HOSPITAL. WE NOW HAVE 1212 BED ER WITH AVERAGE WAIT TIME IS LESS THAN 6 OR 7 MINUTES, 30 ACRES OF LAND THAT WE'VE PURCHASED AND PLANNED TO GROW INTO WITH 24, SEVEN YARDS I MENTIONED, AND WE HAVE 38 INPATIENT PRIVATE ROOMS AND A SIX BED ICU WITH A DEDICATED CATH LAB. AS WE LOOK AT OUR, AS I MENTIONED, OUR PRIMARY SERVICE AREA. AND SO WHAT DOES THAT ENTAIL? THAT ENTAILS PRIMARY CARE CLINICS. WE HAVE ONE IN SOUTHLAKE COLLEYVILLE. WE'RE OPENING A CLINIC IN TROPHY CLUB AND OPENING A CLINIC IN COPPELL, AND THEN ALSO SPECIALTY CLINICS WITH CARDIOLOGY IN NORTH RICHLAND HILLS AND ALSO GENERAL SURGERY RIGHT ON CAMPUS. WE WILL OPEN UP A. WE'VE OPENED UP A SATELLITE EMERGENCY ROOM AND URGENT CARE CLINIC IN COPPELL, AND WE'RE OPENING UP ANOTHER ONE AT THE END OF THIS MONTH IN NORTH RICHLAND HILLS. AND FINALLY, WE'VE GOT AN AMBULATORY SURGERY CENTER THAT OPENED UP IN KELLER. WHAT'S GOOD TO SEE HERE IS THE GROWTH THAT WE'VE DONE. EVERYTHING IN GREEN IS OPENING UP THIS FISCAL YEAR. AND SO A LOT OF DEVELOPMENT AND GROWTH AND EXPANSION INTO THE AREA, HIGHLY COMPETITIVE AREA. AS YOU LOOK AT THIS MAP, A LOT OF FOLKS THAT HAVE BEEN HERE FOR A LONG TIME ARE COMPETITORS TO THE EAST, HAVE BEEN IN THE AREA FOR 70 YEARS TO THE SOUTH OF US, 50, 40 AND 15 YEARS. WE'VE BEEN HERE FOR FIVE. BUT WHAT WE'RE BASED OFF IS 100 YEAR LEGACY WITHIN METHODIST, AND WE TAKE THE GREAT THINGS THAT WE'VE LEARNED FROM OUR SISTER FACILITIES AND BRING THAT UP

[00:15:01]

IT'S A MARATHON OF A, OF A PROCESS TO MAKE SURE WE'RE PROVIDING GREAT CARE AT THE RIGHT TIME. WE'RE NOT GOING TO OVEREXTEND OURSELVES BECAUSE AT THE END OF THE DAY, IT'S SOMEBODY'S LIFE THAT'S AT, AT THE AT RISK. AND SO WE MAKE SURE WE'RE DOING IT THE RIGHT WAY. AND ALSO WE FOCUS ON IS OUR PATIENT EXPERIENCE AND ALSO THE ACCOLADES THAT WE'VE RECEIVED. WE KNOW THAT PATIENTS HAVE A CHOICE. AND AS YOU SEE IN THIS COMMENT HERE, INDIVIDUALS WILL COME TO OUR HOSPITAL TO BYPASS OTHERS TO KNOW THAT THE CARE THAT THEY RECEIVE. WE LIKE TO SAY THERE'S AN ART AND A SCIENCE TO HEALTHCARE. THE THE SCIENCE ASPECT OF IT IS THE CMS FOUR STAR RATING, OUR LEAPFROG SAFETY GRADE. THOSE ARE ALL METRICS THAT WE HAVE BEEN PERFORMING VERY WELL IN. AND SOMETIMES IN THE CLINICAL SIDE, AT THE 90TH PERCENTILE OR TOP QUARTILE. ANOTHER ASPECT OF IT IS THE ART OF HEALTHCARE IS WHAT I LIKE TO SAY IS HOW WE'RE DELIVERING THAT. AND THAT GOES BACK TO THAT PATIENT EXPERIENCE.

WHAT THIS WHAT THIS GRAPH SHOWS HERE IS OVER THE LAST FOUR FISCAL YEARS, FY 22 THROUGH 25, HOW WE PERFORM THE HIGHEST YOU CAN GET IN A PATIENT PATIENT SATISFACTION OR ANY PATIENT SATISFACTION AT THE 99TH PERCENTILE, CAN'T GET 199 IS THE HIGHEST YOU CAN GET TO. AND SO AGE CAPS IS OUR INPATIENT PATIENT SATISFACTION TOP DECILE SINCE WE TOOK OVER THAT HOSPITAL OUTPATIENT TOP QUARTILE, WE'RE NOT CONSISTENTLY AT CLOSE TO TOP.

DECILE ER HAS BEEN TOP DECILE SINCE WE CONVERTED, AND OUR OUTPATIENT SURGERY HAS BEEN BETWEEN TOP QUARTILE AND TOP DECILE. WE'RE FOCUSING TO GET THAT BACK UP INTO THE TOP DECILE, BUT FOR METHODIST, OUR GOAL HAS ALWAYS BEEN TOP QUARTILE AT SOUTHLAKE, AS I LIKE TO SAY, SINCE WE'RE BE QUOTE UNQUOTE BEHIND THE EIGHT BALL, SINCE OUR OTHER FOLKS HAVE BEEN HERE LONGER, WE HAVE TO BE THE BEST. WE HAVE TO BE THE BEST TO BE ABLE TO, TO EARN THE TRUST OF OUR PHYSICIANS AND OF OUR COMMUNITY. AND SO I'VE CHALLENGED OUR TEAM AS WE HAVE TO GET BACK UP TO THE TOP DECILE ACROSS THE BOARD. AND I'M VERY PROUD OF WHAT OUR TEAM HAS BEEN DOING. A LOT OF TIMES YOU CAN SAY, CHECK OUT OUR GOOGLE, RIGHT? CHECK OUT GOOGLE AND WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT US. WE'VE GOT A 4.2 GOOGLE STAR RATING, WHICH IS HIGHEST AMONGST MOST OF THE HOSPITALS IN OUR AREA. AND SO I LIKE TO SAY COMPETITION BREEDS QUALITY, AND WE'RE JUST RAISING THE BAR TO MAKE SURE OUR PATIENTS AND THOSE IN THIS AREA ARE GETTING GREAT, OUTSTANDING CARE BECAUSE WE KNOW NO ONE WAKES UP IN THE MORNING AND SAYS, I WANT TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL. NOBODY DOES. WHETHER YOU'RE GOING IN FOR AN OUTPATIENT SURGERY, AN IMAGING SCAN THAT MAY REVEAL YOU HAVE CANCER, OR LAB TESTS THAT MAY SAY YOU HAVE LEUKEMIA. WE UNDERSTAND THAT AND SAYING PROVIDE THAT GREAT CARE, BOTH SCIENCE AND ART. HOW DO WE PROVIDE THAT CARE TO MAKE SURE WE'RE WE LIKE TO SAY IT'S A FAITH BASED HOSPITAL WHERE GOD'S HANDS AND FEET CARING FOR INDIVIDUALS THROUGH OUR DOORS.

WE ALSO PARTNER WITH THE COMMUNITIES. SO IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT BUSINESS AND JUST ABOUT TAKING CARE OF PATIENTS. IT'S ABOUT BEING SIDE BY SIDE WITH OUR COMMUNITY AND GROWING WITH THEM. SO WHETHER IT'S HISPANIC HERITAGE MONTH IN SOUTHLAKE OR PEP RALLIES WITH THE BOBCATS AND TROPHY CLUB, WHATEVER THAT MAY BE, WE WANT TO BE SIDE BY SIDE BECAUSE WE ARE A COMMUNITY HOSPITAL. THAT'S WHAT WE'VE BEEN FOUNDED ON FOR OVER 100 YEARS WITH METHODIST, THAT'S QUOTE UNQUOTE OUR BUSINESS MODEL BE SIDE BY SIDE WITH OUR PATIENTS THROUGH THE GOOD TIMES AND BAD. AS I MENTIONED EARLIER WITH THE ER EMERGENCY SERVICES, YOU'LL START SEEING SOME ADVERTISEMENT GOING ON. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE FOLKS KNOW THAT WE IT IS A SHORT WAIT. SHORT WAIT.

FROM THE TIME YOU WALK INTO OUR BUILDING, FROM THE TIME YOU SEE A PHYSICIAN, SEVEN MINUTES. I'M GOING TO REPEAT THAT SEVEN MINUTES FROM THE TIME YOU SEE A PHYSICIAN, FROM THE TIME YOU WALK INTO OUR BUILDING. NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE CAN SAY THAT. AND WE'RE PROUD TO BE ABLE TO SAY WE CAN PROVIDE GREAT CARE. AND THESE ARE THE EMERGENCY SERVICES THAT I MENTIONED BEFORE. GYN ORTHOPEDICS, STEMI PROGRAM THAT HAS BEEN GROWN THAT WE STARTED IN FEBRUARY OF 24, AND WE NOW HAVE A PRIMARY HEART ATTACK CENTER. SO PRIMARY HEART ATTACK CENTER IS BASED OFF OF JOINT COMMISSION, AMERICAN HEART, AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION. THAT IS THE HIGHEST LEVEL YOU CAN GET FROM A PRIMARY HEART ATTACK CENTER. IS THAT CERTIFICATION IN OUR PRIMARY SERVICE AREA? THERE'S 6 OR 9 HOSPITALS. WE ARE ONE OF THREE THAT HAVE THAT, AND WE ACHIEVED THAT IN 18 MONTHS. AND SO IT WASN'T RIGHT OFF THE BAT, BUT WE MADE SURE WE HAD PHYSICIANS THAT WERE FOUNDING IT BASED OFF OF EVIDENCE BASED MEDICINE AND MAKING SURE THAT WE'RE PROVIDING CARE THAT THEY WOULD EXPECT FOR THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS, OUR PHYSICIANS THAT ARE FOUNDED THERE IS BETWEEN DOCTOR AND AZ ALKMAAR, DOCTOR FAYE AND DOCTOR KRUGER, ALL LOCAL TO THE AREA. SO WHEN INDIVIDUALS ARE HAVING A HEART ATTACK AND IF EMS CALLS IT IN THROUGH WHAT WE CALL PULSE ERA, OFTENTIMES OUR PHYSICIANS ARE MEETING EMS AT THE DOOR THERE.

SO TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE. OUR AVERAGE DOOR TO BALLOON TIME. SO WHAT THAT MEANS FROM THE

[00:20:04]

NATIONAL STANDARD IS 90 MINUTES. SO WE'VE CUT THAT NEARLY A THIRD, A THIRD BY MAKING SURE WE'RE PROVIDING GREAT CARE. SO WITH THAT, AND THEY'RE THEY'RE VERY PROUD OF THEIR GOOGLE RATINGS. THEY'RE 4.9. THEY WISH IT WAS FIVE. BUT THEY'RE LIKE IT'S 4.9. WITH THAT I OPEN IT UP FOR ANY QUESTIONS, COMMENTS CONCERNS. BUT THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR TIME. YOU DID A GREAT JOB.

ARE YOU A MEMBER OF THE METRO CHAMBER? YES, MA'AM. WE ARE. OKAY. CARRY ON THEN. WHAT KIND OF. YOU MENTIONED YOU MAY BE GETTING UP HERE TO NORTHLAKE. WHAT KIND OF FACILITIES UP HERE? SO WE'RE LOOKING AT A PRIMARY CARE. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THANK YOU FOR

[2.C. Briefing - Valley View Consulting, L.L.C. Investment Advisory Services]

VALLEY VIEW COST ABOUT 40,000 PER YEAR. THAT'S DEPENDENT ON OUR BOOK VALUE AND WHAT THEY'RE HELPING TO MANAGE. AND THEN IN TERMS OF IF WE EVER WANTED TO BRING THIS IN-HOUSE, A FULL TIME POSITION AS OF RIGHT NOW FOR KIND OF AN ENTRY LEVEL, EITHER INVESTMENT LOCAL INVESTMENT OFFICER OR TREASURY OFFICER IS TYPICALLY WITH SALARY AND BENEFITS LOOKING AT ABOUT 86,000. SO THEY THEY MANAGE A LOT FOR US. THEY HELP US WITH A LOT WITHOUT US HAVING TO BRING ON ADDITIONAL STAFF POSITION, WHICH TENDS TO BE THE NORTH LAKE MODEL, FINDING OPPORTUNITIES TO CONTRACT OUT. AND THEN IF WE NEED TO REDUCE SERVICE OR MOVE A DIFFERENT DIRECTION IN THE FUTURE. AND WITH THAT, LET ME HAND IT OVER TO ADAM, AND HE WILL GIVE YOU A LITTLE BIT MORE OF AN IN-DEPTH VIEW OF VALLEY VIEW ITSELF. THANKS. THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME TONIGHT. FIRST OF ALL, THANK YOU FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS OF ALLOWING US TO HELP YOU OUT WITH YOUR MANAGEMENT OF YOUR INVESTMENTS. A LOT OF CREDIT GOES TO YOUR STAFF OR NON-DISCRETIONARY, WHICH MEANS WE GIVE ADVICE. WE DON'T EXECUTE ANYTHING. SO THE FINAL AUTHORITY AND FINAL DECISIONS ARE YOUR STAFF, AND THEIR WORK ALLOWS US TO BE SUCCESSFUL. AND IT HAS BEEN A VERY SUCCESSFUL COUPLE OF YEARS. SO AS JOHN MENTIONED, WE DO YOUR QUARTERLY INVESTMENT REPORTS THAT'S REQUIRED BY THE FIA. SO WE CUSTOMIZE THOSE TO YOUR NEEDS.

WE REVIEW YOUR INVESTMENT POLICY EVERY YEAR, SO WE MAKE CHANGES AS PER THE FIRE AS THEY CHANGE PER YEAR AS WELL AS ANY LEGISLATIVE CHANGES. ADAM. THE FIA IS A PUBLIC FUNDS INVESTMENT ACT THAT WE'RE REQUIRED TO FOLLOW EVERY YEAR. CORRECT. THAT'S THE STATE LAW THAT GOVERNS WHAT YOU CAN AND CAN'T DO WITH YOUR FUNDS. WE DO BANKING RFAS. WE DO CASH FLOW ANALYSIS, WHICH ENTAILS US GOING IN AND SEEING YOUR BALANCES, YOUR INFLOWS, OUTFLOWS, AND HELPING YOU TO SIZE YOUR INVESTMENTS AND THE TIMING OF YOUR INVESTMENTS. AND WE MANAGE YOUR CASH EQUIVALENTS, YOUR LIQUID MONEY, AS WELL AS YOUR TIMED ACCOUNTS. YOU GUYS HAVE A LOT OF BOND FUNDS, SO THAT INVOLVES A LOT OF TIMING WITH PROJECTS. SO WE HELP TO OPTIMIZE INTEREST INCOME SO THAT YOUR CASH FLOWS ARE MAKING AS MUCH AS THEY CAN UNTIL THAT MONEY NEEDS TO GO OUT. OUR TYPICAL INVESTMENT VEHICLE FOR TIMED INVESTMENTS ARE CDS.

THAT'S OUR BREAD AND BUTTER. WE MAKE ABOUT 10 TO 20 BASIS POINTS OVER COMPARABLE TREASURIES, THOUGH. LAST YEAR WE MADE SOME VERY GOOD INVESTMENTS LATE IN THE YEAR AND GOT ALMOST 50 BASIS POINTS ON $7 MILLION. SO THAT RESULTS IN ABOUT AN EXTRA $35,000 OF INTEREST PER YEAR TO YOU GUYS. AS JOHN MENTIONED, WE ACTUALLY DID A RFA PRIMARY DEPOSITORY

[00:25:01]

[2.D. Presentation - Hilltop Development Plans]

IT'S GOING TO TAKE FIVE MINUTES. ALL RIGHT. CAN I DO THE KEYBOARD WITH THIS. CLICK THROUGH IT. DO THE DOWN ARROW OR YOU CAN CLICK IT. OKAY. THAT'S USUALLY THE EASIEST RIGHT? PERFECT. YOU GOT IT. OKAY. HOW'S EVERYBODY DOING TONIGHT? GOOD. INTRODUCE YOURSELF FOR EVERYONE, PLEASE. YEAH. MY NAME IS TROOPER ARNOLD. IF YOU DON'T KNOW ME, I MANAGE THE THE PLACE UP THERE CALLED HILLTOP. HOPEFULLY YOU LOVE IT SOME. IT'S ON THE FENCE, YOU KNOW. BUT WE'RE WORKING FOR THAT. MY FAMILY'S BEEN IN NORTHLAKE FOR 50 YEARS. I'VE SPENT MY ENTIRE LIFE ON FM 407. I'VE NEVER LIVED ANYWHERE OTHER THAN FM 407. WHEN WE STARTED HILLTOP IN 2018 AS A SMALL SELF STORE RV STORAGE FACILITY, IT WAS MY MOM, MY DAD AND I WITH, YOU KNOW, 20 PEOPLE, 40 PEOPLE. AND IT GREW INTO WHAT IT IS TODAY. AND WE CONTINUE TO PUSH TO BE THE PLACE FOR THE COMMUNITY, WHATEVER THEY NEEDED, WHETHER IT WAS THE STOREFRONT, THE STORAGE FOOD, THE FOOD TRUCKS CAME LATER, YOU KNOW, BUT WE DIDN'T HAVE A PLAN FOR THIS. BUT IT'S BECOME THE PLAN. SO I'LL START TODAY, AND I LIKE TO MENTION EVERYTHING THAT WE'RE PUTTING IN TODAY IS, IS TO WORK FOR MORE. WE'VE, WE'RE WILLING TO PUT IT ALL OUT THERE.

WHAT WE WANT TO DO FOR ANYBODY THAT DOESN'T KNOW, NONE OF THAT'S IN THE TOWN OF NORTH LAKE. YOU ALL KNOW THIS, BUT WE WANT TO BE IN THE TOWN. THIS IS A LONG TIME COMING. BEEN HERE MY WHOLE LIFE. MY GRANDMA WAS THE FIRST MAYOR OF NORTH LAKE, SO I THINK WE GOT TO COME FULL CIRCLE AT SOME POINT. BUT I, I STARTING TODAY, YOU KNOW, SO THIS IS HILLTOP'S OPERATIONS TODAY. YOU KNOW, IF WE WERE ABLE TO COME TO AN AGREEMENT ON A DEVELOPER'S AGREEMENT, THIS WOULD BE OUR FIRST PHASE AS ALL THESE BUSINESSES HERE ARE 16 TAXABLE BUSINESSES UP AT HILLTOP. WE'VE GOT TEN PERMANENT FOOD TRUCKS FROM FOOD ALL AROUND THE WORLD. ANYTHING YOU CAN THINK OF. AND WE TRY TO BRING IN DIFFERENT STUFF AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. HILLTOP RV AND BOAT STORAGE IS 360 STORAGE SPACES. THAT REMAINS ABOVE 90% FULL FOR THE FOR THE LAST FIVE YEARS, IT'S ALWAYS THERE. MOVING INTO THE END OF THIS YEAR, WE'RE GOING TO ADD TO OUR SELF STORAGE PHASE. BUT IN OUR OFFICE, WE HAVE OUR HILLTOP GENERAL STORE, MOST KNOWN AS THE GRILL SHOP, WHERE WE SELL GRILLS, CHARCOAL PELLETS. DO YOU HAUL PROPANE AS WELL? ANOTHER BUSINESS OPENING THIS YEAR IS OUR COFFEE SHOP. THAT'LL BE A FULL DRIVE THROUGH SERVICE, COFFEE, TEAS, PASTRY, THE WHOLE NINE YARDS. WE ALSO HAVE THE HILLTOP HEMP HOUSE, WHICH IS ANOTHER LOCAL FAMILY FROM LANTANA, ALL FAMILY BUSINESS, AS WELL AS OUR GHOST KITCHEN OPERATION WHERE WE HAVE EVERETT AND ELAINE, WHICH I'M SURE MOST OF YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH, AS WELL AS SIMPLE MEAL PREP. SO LOTS OF DIFFERENT BUSINESSES ALL WITHIN ONE BUSINESS. AND CURRENTLY ALL OF THESE BUSINESSES ARE READY TODAY TO, TO, IF WE WERE TO ANNEX IN THESE BUSINESSES ARE LIVE AND OPERATING. A COUPLE OF THEM WILL EXPAND ON WITH STORAGE AND COFFEE. ALL THOSE THINGS ARE IN THE PIPELINE, YOU KNOW, FOR SPRING OR THE FALL, BUT IT WILL HAPPEN IN 2026. AND WITH THAT, WITH OUR PLAN FOR 26, WE'VE GOT HERE IS OUR BUILD OUT FOR SELF STORAGE. AT 67,000 SQUARE FOOT, IT'S ABOUT 360 LOCKERS, OVER 30,000FT■!S OF CLIMATE CONTROLLED STORAGE. WE'RE GOING TO REPLACE A QUARTER MILE OF THOMPSON ROAD.

IF YOU'VE DRIVEN DOWN THOMPSON ROAD, YOU MAY HAVE LOST A CROWN, BUT IT IS WHAT WE'RE WORKING WITH RIGHT NOW THAT'S GOING TO BE A SELF-FUNDED PROJECT HOUSE. WE'VE GOT A COMPANY LINED UP READY TO GO FOR THAT. SO EVERYWHERE FROM 407 TO PAST ALL HILLTOP BUSINESSES WOULD BE A CONCRETE STRUCTURE, ALL TO THE CITY'S CODE STANDARDS. EVERYTHING WE WOULD DO THAT'S ALSO GOING TO HAVE ROADWAY LIGHTS, LANDSCAPING ALONG THE DRIVE. DEFINITELY A MUCH BETTER DRIVE IN THAN WHAT YOU'LL BE DEALING WITH TODAY. AS WELL AS OPENING THE HILLTOP COFFEE SHOP.

SO IN THESE IMAGES HERE YOU CAN SEE THE THE SELF STORAGE IS FIVE SEPARATE BUILDINGS, THE TWO IN THE MIDDLE. THOSE WILL BE OUR SELF STORAGE, CLIMATE CONTROLLED, ALL INTERIOR UNITS.

AND THEN THE EXTERIOR WILL BE NON-CLIMATE CONTROLLED. AND THEN THE IMAGE ON THE RIGHT THERE SHOWS OUR QUARTER MILE OF ROAD ALL THE WAY BACK. THAT GOES PAST ALL THE PROPERTY THAT WE MANAGE AS WELL AS OUR COFFEE SHOP. WE'LL BE THE ONLY DRIVE THROUGH COFFEE SHOP IN NORTH

[00:30:03]

TONIGHT WE HAVE THE LANCE THOMPSON PTA. IT'LL BE A PACKED HOUSE UP THERE AT THE TRUCK PARK. ALL THE KIDS LOVE IT. THE TEACHERS, IT'S IT'S DEFINITELY A PLACE. AND SO WHAT WE'VE CREATED IS A BOOTSTRAP BUILDING. WE'VE DONE EVERYTHING AS BEST WE CAN WITH WHAT WE HAVE. AND SO THE PLAN IS TO TAKE ALL OF THOSE IDEAS AND CONCEPTS AND TURN IT INTO SOMETHING GRANDIOSE, MUCH BIGGER THAN WHAT WE'VE DONE TODAY. SO WE HAVE THE HILLTOP HANGOUT. THIS WOULD BE SITTING ON ABOUT THREE ACRES AT THE HIGHEST POINT OF OUR PROPERTY. THIS WOULD BE AN ALL INSIDE BUILDING, FULLY CLIMATE CONTROLLED, ABOUT 40,000 SQUARE FOOT EATERY SIDE.

THAT WOULD BE 6 TO 8 PREMIUM FOOD VENDORS, ALL MANAGED BY HILLTOP. AN ISSUE WE HAVE AT THE MOMENT IS ALL THE FOOD TRUCKS ARE THEIR OWN BUSINESS, THEIR OWN PEOPLE. WE HAVE NO SAY SO. BESIDES, HERE'S WHAT SOMEONE SAID. THIS WOULD BE SOMETHING THAT WE HAVE TO SAY, SO IT'S DRAWN IN. WHEN THERE'S A PROBLEM, THERE IS A CONSEQUENCE. AND THAT'S JUST TO HOLD THE QUALITY STANDARD TO WHERE IT NEEDS TO BE. YOU KNOW, YOU CAN FIGHT SOMEBODY ALL DAY, BUT IF IT'S IN WRITING, IT'S SOMETHING TO TALK ABOUT. BUT WITH THE THE PLAY AREA THAT WE'VE ALREADY CREATED, WE WANT TO CREATE AN INDOOR OUTDOOR PLAY AREA FOR THE TWO MONTHS OF THE YEAR THAT IT'S JUST COMPLETELY UNBEARABLE TO BE OUTSIDE AS WELL AS, YOU KNOW, POTENTIALLY A FULL GAME ARCADE CENTER AND ALL OF THE STAPLES THAT YOU WOULD HAVE THAT WE HAVE CURRENTLY, YOU KNOW, PIZZA, BURGERS, BARBECUE, WE WANT TO EXPAND ON THAT AND HAVE TRULY PEOPLE THAT STRIVE IN THEIR LANE. THEY DON'T DO EVERYTHING. THEY DO ONE THING AND THEY DO IT GREAT. AND WE FEEL THAT WE CAN THROW A REALLY GREAT PARTY. AND SO IF WE CAN PUT ALL THESE PIECES TOGETHER THAT IT COULD BE MORE THAN THAT. AND SO ATTACHED TO THIS BUILDING, WE WOULD HOPE TO ADD A CONCERT VENUE SPACE AS WELL. AND THAT WOULD BE ABOUT 20,000 SQUARE FOOT, FULLY INSULATED INDOOR SPACE, NO OUTSIDE MUSIC TO BE HEARD. THIS IS A MULTIFUNCTIONAL SPACE BECAUSE SIX DAYS OF THE WEEK, WHEN YOU'RE NOT DOING ANYTHING, YOU NEED TO HAVE SOMETHING YOU CAN DO IN THERE. AND SO WHAT WE'VE ALREADY DONE IS THE PAINTING GAMES, THE TRIVIA NIGHTS. WE DO A LOT OF NETWORKING, GROUP MUSIC, BINGO, ALL OF THESE THINGS ARE THINGS THAT WE COULD FILL THE SCHEDULE. AND SO EVERYONE THAT LIVES IN NORTH LAKE FAR WIDE, EVEN OUT, THEY HAVE SOMETHING TO DO ALL THE TIME. AND WITH THIS, OBVIOUSLY TRAFFIC WILL BE A BIG ISSUE. SO WE DESIGNATED AN AREA ABOUT TWO ACRES THAT WE'D LIKE TO PUT IN A PARKING GARAGE, JUST TO BE A MINIMUM TWO LEVEL, MAYBE THREE LEVEL, THAT WOULD HOLD UP TO 800 CARS IF WE WERE ABLE TO FIT IT IN THERE. AND THIS IS JUST TO TAKE THAT EYESORE AWAY. YOU KNOW, RIGHT NOW WE LOOK AT A LOT OF CARS ON A FRIDAY, SATURDAY NIGHT, IF WE CAN PUT THEM IN A NICE CLEAN PARKING GARAGE, THAT FROM THE OUTSIDE JUST LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER BUILDING, YOU KNOW, ESTHETICALLY PLEASING KIND OF OFF THE LOOK THAT WE'VE ALREADY CREATED. THE BARN WOULD ROCK, YOU KNOW, THAT'S VERY SIMILAR JUST SO THAT IT'S NOT AN EYESORE FROM FAR AWAY. BUT ALL THIS BEING BACKED UP TO THE REMAINING 22 ACRES ON HILLTOP TO BE A NINE HOLE, PAR THREE GOLF COURSE, THIS WOULD BE 22 ACRES IS ABOUT THE MINIMUM TO DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS. THIS WOULD BE ALL SHORT PLAY, LESS THAN AN HOUR OF GAMEPLAY. AND IN THIS, YOU KNOW, IN A PERFECT WORLD, WE COULD GET A WELL SYSTEM FOR THIS BECAUSE A GOLF COURSE REQUIRES A LOT OF WATER, AND I DON'T NECESSARILY WANT TO PUT THAT ON THE TOWN TO MAKE IT HAPPEN, BUT WE THINK THAT A WELL WOULD BE ABLE TO COVER THE WHOLE 22 ACRES, YOU KNOW, GIVE OR TAKE, YOU KNOW, SOME OTHER PIECES. BUT THIS WOULD ALL BE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC MEMBERSHIPS, SCHOOLS, NEARBY, HIGH SCHOOLS THAT NEED TO PRACTICE THIS WOULD BE IDEAL FOR ANY OF THEM.

BUT THEN THIS WOULD GO LATE INTO THE NIGHT. WE PUT IN SOME LOW LIGHTS, LOW ENOUGH TO WHERE YOU DON'T SEE THEM FROM FAR AWAY TO WHERE PEOPLE CAN PLAY GOLF UP UNTIL TEN 11:00 AT NIGHT IF THEY WANTED TO. AND KIND OF A LAYOUT HERE SHOWS YOU THE FULL SCALE OF WHAT THE

[00:35:05]

THAT'S WHERE WE WOULD ATTACH A CLUBHOUSE SO THAT EVERYBODY PLAYING COULD HAVE DIRECT ACCESS TO THE FOOD AND DRINKS AND NOT HAVE TO WALK A MILE TO GET TO THE COURSE. RIGHT NEXT TO THAT BEING THE PARKING GARAGE. AND RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE IS OUR PRIVATE RESIDENCE. AND SO WHEN IT COMES TO THE MUSIC, MY HEAD WOULD BE 200 YARDS FROM THIS STAGE. SO THIS IS I'M GOING TO BE THE FIRST ONE TO CALL IF THERE'S A PROBLEM, BUT KIND OF GIVE YOU A LAYOUT. HERE IS THE FULL PROPERTY THAT WE HAVE IS HILLTOP STORAGE. UP ON THE BLUE HILLTOP TRUCK PARK IN THE YELLOW IS ACTUALLY ONLY ABOUT TWO ACRES. AND THEN THE REMAINING, YOU KNOW, PARKING PAR THREE, HILLTOP AND THEN RESIDENTIAL, YOU KNOW, RIGHT THERE IN THE MIDDLE. SO REALLY WHAT WE WOULD NEED TO LAND ON IS A SEWER SITUATION. FIGURE OUT WHAT WE CAN GET BY. WE'VE DONE SOME ROUGH NUMBERS, YOU KNOW, BUT IT'S THERE'S A LOT OF VARIABLES. YOU KNOW, IF THINGS CHANGE IN THE FUTURE, WHO KNOWS WHERE OTHER THINGS FALL OUT? WE JUST KIND OF GOT TO GET IT ON PAPER AND SEE WHAT MAKES THE MOST SENSE. BUT REALLY JUST SOME THINGS THAT WE HAD ON HERE THAT WE WANT TO KIND OF PUT OUT THERE IS JUST A GUARANTEE. IF WE WERE ABLE TO COME TO AN AGREEMENT AS A GUARANTEE ON THE SEWER FOR FUTURE PHASES, WHICH WOULD JUST BE THAT MAIN BUILDING, IF WE WERE ABLE TO COME TO SOMETHING WITH A WELL ON THE GOLF COURSE, IT WOULD BE EASY WORK. WE'RE GOING TO BE GIVING THOMPSON ROAD, QUARTER MILE ROAD, ABOUT A MILLION AND A HALF WORTH OF WORK, CONCRETE WORK TO THE TOWN OF NORTH LAKE. SO REALLY IN RETURN, JUST SOMETHING TO RECOUP THAT VALUE. WE DON'T EXPECT TO BE PAID OUT OVER TIME FOR ADDING, YOU KNOW, MORE TO THE TOWN. IT'S JUST THAT LAND VALUE OF THE ROAD. IF WE'RE GOING TO GIVE IT IN AND PUT IT IN, WE'LL FIGURE OUT SOME SORT OF WAY TO MAKE THAT BACK SOME SORT OF WATER METER.

IN THE MEANTIME, AT THE TRUCK PARK, WE DO HAVE QUITE A BIT OF WATER USE THERE DURING THE SUMMER TIMES, AND A LOT OF THAT IS FOR THE SLIDE AND THE MR. SYSTEM, WHICH WE ARE BEING CHARGED ON THE SAME SIDE, WATER IN, WATER OUT. AND IT'S A HEFTY BILL THOSE THREE MONTHS OUT OF THE YEAR. SO THAT'D BE THAT'D BE NICE. BUT A MARKETING PLAN OF SOME SORT. YOU KNOW, WE WANT TO BE A, A PILLAR OF THE COMMUNITY. WE WANT PEOPLE TO BE PROUD OF IT HERE. WE WANT PEOPLE TO COME OFF THE HIGHWAY, LIKE FROM OKLAHOMA TO AUSTIN NEEDS TO HAVE SIGNS THAT SAY, THIS IS THE PLACE TO BE. YOU KNOW, IT'S, IT'S MORE THAN, YOU KNOW, IT STARTED AS STORAGE, BUT IT'S MORE THAN THAT. WE'VE, WE'VE CREATED THIS THING AND WE TALK TO PEOPLE EVERY WEEK THAT COME FROM COPPELL, GRAPEVINE, COLLEYVILLE, THEY'RE DRIVING TO COME HANG OUT HERE. AND WE THINK WE CAN REALLY JUST EXPAND ON THAT FOR THE PEOPLE THAT ARE HERE. BUT, YOU KNOW, MINOR CONTRIBUTION FROM THE POLICE FOR MAJOR EVENTS. YOU KNOW, WE'RE HAPPY TO PAY. BUT IF WE WERE TO FIGURE OUT A TERM TO MAKE SOMETHING WORK WITH THE MAJOR EVENTS, 4TH OF JULY, NEW YEAR'S EVE, CHRISTMAS PARTIES, THINGS LIKE THAT, YOU KNOW, SOMETHING THAT WOULD BE BENEFICIAL TO EVERYBODY ACROSS THE BOARD, AS WELL AS SOME CROSSWALK APPROVAL STUFF DOWN THOMPSON ROAD TO TO LOOK AT. BUT A MAIN PIECE IS OUR UTV ACCESS. WE ARE WE DON'T DRIVE CARS. I DON'T LEAVE THE PROPERTY. EVERYTHING IS ON A FOUR WHEELER OR A SIDE BY SIDE.

AND SO WORKING WITH THE POLICE WOULD BE A BIG THING ON THAT. YOU KNOW, WE CONTINUE OUR BUSINESS AS THAT ROAD GETS COMPLETE, YOU KNOW, SOME SORT OF PIECE IN THERE THAT SAYS IT WILL BE ALRIGHT TO GO FROM A TO B WITH THESE MACHINES WITHOUT THE TROUBLE. YOU KNOW, SOME POINTS THAT WE'VE GOTTEN IN THE PAST, YOU KNOW, WE APPRECIATE THE PHASED ANNEXATION SO THAT WE CAN CONTINUE TO BUILD ON DENTON COUNTY'S BUILDING STANDARDS. IT'S JUST A HAIR A BIT EASIER, YOU KNOW, THE IMPACT FEE THINGS AND THEN LITTLE PIECES. BUT CONTINUATION OF THOMPSON ROAD, THAT'S A BIG GOAL FOR ALL OF US. YOU KNOW, IF WE'RE GOING TO DO THAT FIRST QUARTER MILE, THAT NEXT QUARTER MILE IS GOING TO TIE US RIGHT INTO HARVEST. THAT'LL BE ANOTHER WAY TO GET OUT OF HARVEST. BUT ANOTHER WAY TO GET TO HILLTOP GOLF CART ACCESS. I KNOW THAT'S A BIG THING FOR A LOT OF THE CUSTOMERS. AND WE DEFINITELY TELL EVERYBODY, YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO DRIVE THEM UP, BUT THAT DOESN'T STOP EVERYBODY. SO IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE WANT TO WORK ON. YOU KNOW, THERE'S GOT TO BE A SAFER WAY TO DO IT. THERE'S A THERE'S GOT TO BE A BETTER WAY. YOU KNOW, AS FAR AS THE, THE FOOD TRUCKS GO, YOU KNOW, I THINK THE, THE PIONEER GRANTS, A LOT OF THOSE FOOD TRUCKS ARE TRYING TO BUILD THEIR BUSINESSES AND THINGS IN TIME. AND, YOU KNOW, THAT'D JUST BE SOMETHING MAYBE OPEN FOR CONVERSATION, I SHOULD SAY. BUT THE FIREWORKS SHOW THAT WE PUT ON IS, IS THIS LAST YEAR WAS OUR FIRST YEAR TO DO A SPONSORED FIREWORKS SHOW. THE FIRST YEAR WE PAID FOR EVERYTHING. AND IT DOESN'T NECESSARILY HAVE AN IMMEDIATE RETURN FOR HILLTOP. IT'S MORE JUST THE PEOPLE THAT ARE HERE.

THEY ENJOY THE SHOW. AND SO IF THERE WAS SOME WAY TO COME TO A TERM ON A SET PRICE OR SET, YOU KNOW, BASED OFF TAXES, YOU KNOW, THAT WOULD BE ABLE TO COVER SOMETHING, YOU KNOW, IN THE LONG RUN. IT'S, IT'S REALLY, I'M SURE IT'S A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE FIREWORKS ARE GOING TO BE A NO GO BECAUSE OF HOW DENSE THE AREA IS RIGHT NOW, SINCE WE HAVE THE 30 ACRES IS WHERE THE FIRE MARSHAL'S ALLOWED US TO LET US SHOOT THESE OFF. SO IN TIME IT MIGHT TURN INTO A DRONE SHOW. YOU KNOW, WE'LL FIGURE THAT OUT. BUT I THINK YOU KNOW WHAT WE'RE BRINGING TO THE TABLE AS OF TODAY, IF WE WERE ABLE TO WORK THIS DEVELOPERS AGREEMENT OUT, IS THE CONTRIBUTION OF THE ROAD, AND THAT'S GOING TO GIVE THE TOWN, YOU KNOW, MAYBE SOME INCENTIVE TO BE ABLE TO TIE THAT PIECE IN. IF WE DID EVERYTHING TODAY, YOU KNOW, THAT'D BE 80 TO 100,000 A

[00:40:05]

AND WE APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONTINUE WORKING TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN AGAIN.

THANK YOU FOR THE TIME. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. YEAH. COUNCIL. ANY QUESTIONS I GOT? I GOT ONE FOR YOU ON THE THE FOOD TRUCKS AND THEN THE WAS IT THE HILLTOP HANGOUT? YES SIR. ARE YOU IS YOUR PLAN TO HAVE BOTH COINCIDE WITH EACH OTHER? YES. WE START WITH THE TRUCK PARK AND I'LL BE IMMEDIATE TAX REVENUE FOR THE TOWN. KIND OF A SHOW OF FAITH TO GO ACROSS THE STREET AND SEE THAT IT COULD BE MORE. BUT ALL OF IT WOULD BE NORTHLAKE. YES, SIR. AND AND THE FOOD TRUCKS WILL STAY THERE WHEN THE HILLTOP HANGOUT IS IN. NEW VENDORS GO IN THERE. OR IS THAT KIND OF LIKE A PHASE OUT THE FOOD TRUCK AND GO TO THE HANGOUT? IT WOULD HAVE TO BE PROBABLY A PHASE OUT IN SOME FORM OR FASHION. I MEAN, RIGHT NOW IT'S KIND OF LIKE FOOTBALL TRYOUTS. YOU KNOW, WE'RE TRYING TO SEE WHO'S GOT THE BEST PERFORMANCE, WHO CAN REALLY PLAY WITH THE BIG DOGS. I MEAN, WE SEE FOOD TRUCKS THAT COME THROUGH ALL THE TIME. A LOT OF THEM THAT WORK IN THE INNER CITIES AND STUFF, THEY CAN'T DEAL WITH THE TRAFFIC THAT COMES UP THERE, SO THEY GET LONG WAIT TIMES, QUALITY DROPS, AND THAT'S ALL THINGS THAT WE TAKE INTO ACCOUNT TO KNOW IF WE'RE INVITING THEM BACK. AND SO A LOT OF OUR TRUCKS THAT ARE OUT THERE NOW HAVE BEEN VETTED IN A WAY. AND SO WE'D LIKE TO BE ABLE TO TAKE THOSE VENDORS AND USE THEM IN THAT SPACE. YOU KNOW, THAT'S THE GOAL IS GIVE THEM A BETTER PLATFORM TO PERFORM WHAT THEY'RE ALREADY DOING, AND MOST LIKELY WOULD HAVE TO PHASE THAT OUT OVER TIME, THOUGH, AND, YOU KNOW, DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT. BUT THIS WOULD ALL BE, YOU KNOW, OKAY.

YEAH. AND THAT'S WHAT I WAS GETTING AT BECAUSE I LIKE THE IDEA OF THE HILLTOP HANGOUT. I THINK THAT'S A PRETTY, PRETTY NEAT IDEA. THE CONCERN WAS WHEN THE FOOD TRUCKS GO AWAY, WHAT'S YOUR PLAN FOR THAT AREA OR DO YOU HAVE ONE YET? I GUESS, I MEAN, I ALWAYS GOT A PLAN FOR SOMETHING, BUT IT'S IN A PERFECT WORLD. WE'D TURN IT INTO A A QUAINT, YOU KNOW, SIT DOWN BREAKFAST OPERATION. YOU KNOW SOMETHING? MY DAD, HIS FAVORITE MEAL OF THE DAY IS BREAKFAST. WE'VE ALWAYS HAD. THAT'S THE ONE THAT GOT THE MOST LOVE. AND I'D LOVE TO HAVE SOMETHING THERE THAT WAS UNIQUE BREAKFAST, YOU KNOW, NOT YOUR NORMAL CAFE THINGS, YOU KNOW, AND SOMETHING THAT ONE WOULD STILL BE ABLE TO HAVE THE KID PRESENCE, YOU KNOW, YOU CAN HAVE THE AREA FOR THE TURF, WE CAN PUT IN PLAYGROUNDS. WE STILL HAVE ALL OF THAT LAND THERE TO USE. IT WOULD JUST BE A MATTER OF, OF WHAT WE DO WITH THE INTERIOR, YOU KNOW, WORKING WITH THE COUNTY. THEY WANT US TO SPRINKLE THAT BUILDING BASED OFF OF OCCUPANCY TODAY BECAUSE OF HOW MANY PEOPLE COME. SO IF WE WERE TO CLASSIFY THAT AS A SIT DOWN RESTAURANT AND SIT FIXED TABLES, WE COULD STAY BELOW THE THE OCCUPANCY UNDER THE ROOF. AND I THINK WE COULD BUILD IT OUT WITHOUT HAVING TO DO THE SPRINKLER SYSTEM, WHICH THAT'S A HUGE COST. AND THAT'S REALLY A HICCUP IN THE, IN THE RIDE. SO BUT THERE'S DEFINITELY A PLAN FOR, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE ANOTHER SPACE IN OUR STOREFRONT THAT WE'D LOVE TO WORK WITH. IT'S ABOUT 3000 SQUARE FOOT AND IT'S, YOU KNOW, RIGHT IN LINE WITH OUR GRILL SHOP, HEMP HOUSE AND THE COFFEE. IT'S JUST A, IT'S A PERFECT LITTLE BAY THAT MY WIFE WOULD LIKE TO DO A PLAY CAFE OR SOMETHING FOR THE YOUNGER KIDS. MOMS CAN GET INSIDE AND NOT HAVE TO BE OUTSIDE PLAYING WITH ALL THE BIG KIDS IN THE SUN AND STUFF. WE ADDED A TODDLER BOUNCE HOUSE FOUR WEEKS AGO TO THE TRUCK PARK AREA, AND IT'S BEEN THE BUSIEST THING WE'VE EVER HAD. I MEAN, 9:00 IN THE MORNING, PARENTS ARE LINING UP WAITING TO BLOW THEM UP, YOU KNOW, SO IT'S THERE'S A NEED FOR EVERY AGE GROUP. THE YOUNGER, THE MIDDLE, THE TEENAGERS, THEY ALWAYS WANT SOMETHING TO DO.

AND PARENTS DON'T WANT TO BE CONFINED TO ORDERING FOOD AT HOME OR HAVING TO PICK IT UP AND BRING IT HOME. THEY WANT TO BE ABLE TO GO OUT, TAKE THE KIDS AND THEN FEEL SAFE. YOU KNOW, THAT'S ONE OF THE BIGGEST THINGS PEOPLE TELL ME IS THEY FEEL SAFE WITH THEIR KIDS UP THERE. AND, YOU KNOW, WE JUST BUILT THE PLACE AS ENCLOSED AS WE COULD SO THAT THEY COULDN'T GO ANYWHERE. BUT I THINK IT'S MORE THE PARENTS COME UP THERE SO OFTEN THAT THEY FEEL SAFE.

[00:45:05]

I MEAN, THE OTHER NIGHT, THAT CRAZY STORM, WE HAD 12 PEOPLE THAT RODE OUT THE STORM AT THE BAR THROUGH THE WHOLE THING. THEY STAYED, YOU KNOW, AND IT'S NOT MADE FOR THAT. BUT I HAVE TO SAY, I SEE PART OF EVERTON LANE HERE WITH NO PIE, AND I FEEL LIKE THAT'S WORTH SAYING.

I TOLD HIM TO BRING SAMPLES. YEAH. ANYWAY. ALL RIGHT. WELL THANK YOU VERY MUCH. APPRECIATE

[2.E. Briefing - Policy Options for Winter Averaging During Freeze Events]

BUT WE RAN SOME QUICK CALCULATIONS. WE USED SOME ASSUMPTIONS. AND JUST BASED ON A FIVE DAY, JUST LIKE WE SAW THIS YEAR WITH THE FREEZE BEING GOING OVER FIVE DAYS, WE SAW KIND OF AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF ASSUMPTIONS, 285 GALLONS BEING USED. IF YOU WERE DRIPPING ALMOST NONSTOP, IT'S ABOUT $1.46 ON YOUR BILL FOR THAT MONTH. AND THEN THE IMPACT TO WINTER AVERAGE, WHICH I THINK IS THE KEY QUESTION, IS IT WOULD ADD 95 GALLONS TO YOUR WINTER AVERAGE FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR. IF YOU WERE JUST ASSUMING JUST WE HAD TO HOLD

[00:50:05]

THERE'S NO FORMAL FREEZE TRIGGER. AND WE TAKE STEPS TO PROVIDE SOME TYPE OF RESPONSE IF COUNCIL DIRECTS US TO TAKE A LOOK INTO IT. AND JOHN, WHEN YOU WERE RESEARCHING THIS, NUMBER TWO WAS PROBABLY THE MOST COMMON. NUMBER TWO IS THE MOST COMMON. SO AMONG OTHER OTHER COMMUNITIES IN TEXAS AND OTHER AREAS. YEAH. SO ONES NEARBY THAT USE NUMBER TWO, YOU HAVE LAKE DALLAS, WHICH DOES THIS. SO DOES CORINTH. THERE'S SOME LARGER ONES WITH ARLINGTON AND GRAND PRAIRIE. AND THEN REACHING A LITTLE FURTHER OUT, YOU CAN SEE THAT WHITE SETTLEMENT DOES AS WELL. THE DEFINITELY THE FIRST OPTION WAS THE LEAST USED. WE REALLY ONLY FOUND ONE EXAMPLE, AND IT WAS AN EXAMPLE THAT A MUD OF A MUD. AND THEN THE YEARLY EVALUATION THAT TENDS TO BE WHAT OTHERS DEFAULT TO IF THEY DON'T HAVE ANY TYPE OF POLICY. THIS IS JUST A COMPARISON OF THOSE POLICIES. WE SPLIT IT INTO THE SUMMARY, WHICH I BRIEFLY ALREADY WENT THROUGH, THE BENEFITS, THE CHALLENGES OF THOSE POLICIES, AND THEN THE POTENTIAL IMPACT ON THE TOWN AND TOWN STAFF. SO JUST LOOKING AT THE BENEFITS. OPTION ONE, IT IS BASED ON AN EVENT. THE RELIEF WILL HAPPEN WHEN THE EVENT OCCURS. IT'S PREDICTABLE.

WE KNOW WHAT TO DO AND WE ALSO CAN'T PREDICT IT WHEN THERE'S NON FREEZE YEARS. AND THEN COUNCIL CAN DEFINE THAT EVENT AND WHAT THE RESPONSE SHOULD BE TO THAT WITH OPTION TWO DOES PROVIDE US WITH MORE PREDICTABLE REVENUE. THE FOUR MONTH WINTER AVERAGE AND DROPPING THE HIGHEST HELPS TO KIND OF SMOOTH OUT THE EFFECTS. INSTEAD OF GUESSING FROM YEAR TO YEAR WHETHER WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A FREEZE OR NOT. AND THEN IT DOES HELP TO MITIGATE THE FREEZE ISSUE, SINCE IN THEORY WE WOULD BE DROPPING THE HIGHEST MONTH, WHICH WE'RE HOPING IS THAT FREEZE MONTH WHERE YOU HAD TO DRIP. AND THEN THE LAST ONE IS JUST MAINTAINS THE CURRENT POLICY. IT MAINTAINS THE MOST DISCRETION FOR COUNCIL. COUNCIL CAN DECIDE WHAT TO DO BASED ON YEARLY EVENTS. THE CHALLENGES WITH OPTION ONE, WE DO HAVE TO DEFINE WHAT THAT FREEZE EVENT IS. IT COULD BE BASED ON THE NUMBER OF CONSECUTIVE DAYS AT 32 OR BELOW. IT COULD BE BASED ON THE FACT THAT TOWN HALL CLOSES AND HOW LONG TOWN HALL IS CLOSED. I'M SURE THERE'S OTHER OPTIONS, BUT THOSE ARE JUST A FEW THAT CAME TO OUR MINDS READILY. IT DOES PROVIDE LESS PREDICTABLE REVENUE, AND THEN IT DOES CREATE THE EXPECTATION FOR FUTURE YEARS. AND SOMETIMES THAT EXPECTATION MAY NOT ALIGN WITH WHAT RESIDENTS EXPECT. AND THEN OPTION TWO WOULD REQUIRE AN ORDINANCE. AND THEN WE WOULD JUST NEED TO DECIDE WHICH MONTH TO ADD TO THE WINTER AVERAGE. IT'S EITHER GOING TO BE NOVEMBER OR IT'S GOING TO BE MARCH. AND THEN OPTION THREE IS THE CHALLENGES. THERE IS NO PREDEFINED CRITERIA. IT IS IT DOES CREATE A LEVEL OF UNCERTAINTY FOR RESIDENTS, SINCE WE'RE OPERATING JUST ON A YEARLY EVALUATION BASED ON THE EVENT AND WHAT RESPONSE COUNCIL, IF ANY, WOULD LIKE TO TAKE IN TERMS OF IMPACT, ONE AND TWO DOES HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO REDUCE REDUCE REVENUE. AND THEN THERE IS A MODERATE ADMINISTRATIVE BURDEN FOR OPTION ONE. WHEN A FREEZE DOES TAKE EFFECT, WE DO HAVE TO GO INTO OUR SYSTEM. WE DO HAVE TO GO MAKE ADJUSTMENTS. VERSUS OPTION TWO. WE ESSENTIALLY JUST UPDATE OUR POLICY WITHIN OUR UTILITY BILLING SYSTEM FROM THREE MONTHS TO FOUR MONTHS, PICK THE MONTHS, AND THEN IT RUNS ON ITS OWN FROM FROM THAT POINT FORWARD. AND WE JUST SET THE FLAG TO DROP THE HIGHEST MONTH OUT OF THOSE FOUR. AND WITH OPTION THREE, THERE IS THERE'S NO REAL CURRENT REVENUE IMPACT OR ADMINISTRATIVE BURDEN UNLESS ACTION IS TAKEN. OTHERWISE, IT'S JUST BUSINESS AS USUAL. AND SO I GUESS WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR TONIGHT IS JUST DIRECTION FROM COUNCIL ABOUT WHICH POLICY DIRECTION YOU WOULD LIKE TO GO. IF WE NEED TO LOOK INTO THIS SOME MORE, OR IF WE NEED TO PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. I LOVE SEEING OPTION TWO ON THERE BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT I DIDN'T. I DIDN'T HAVE IT AS I WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN ABLE TO EXPLAIN IT, BUT THAT'S WHAT I WISH THAT WE HAD ALREADY. SO THAT'S MY MY VOTE IS FOR OPTION TWO. I HAVE A QUESTION WITH THE, YOU KNOW, WITH EVERY HOUSE AND PLACE HAVING THE ELECTRONIC METERS NOW, IS THERE NOT A WAY THAT COULD ISOLATE THOSE JUST THE DAYS INSTEAD OF PULLING A MONTH AND THEN REMOVING THOSE DAYS FROM THE AVERAGE. SO THE, THE CELLULAR METERS AND THE PROGRAM

[00:55:04]

YOU MAY HAVE SEEN IN THE EYE ON WATER, BECAUSE I THINK I COLLECTED DATA DURING THAT TIME AND IT WAS SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER, LIKE TEN X. AND I THINK THAT'S PART OF THE CHALLENGE IS THE VARIATION BETWEEN HOUSEHOLDS. WE USED. WE TRIED TO USE THE US USGS CALCULATOR, AND THE MAX IT ALLOWS US TO DO IS 120 MINUTES PER SECOND IN DOING THOSE CALCULATIONS. AND SO THE CHALLENGE IS, IS IDENTIFYING IN OUR SYSTEM WHAT INFORMATION TO PULL TO THEN RUN A SIMILAR SITUATION. OF COURSE, ALL THAT DATA BECOMES A NON-ISSUE IF WE LOOK AT OPTION TWO. SO I JUST WANTED TO WEIGH THAT BECAUSE I ACTUALLY KNOW I SENT DREW SOME DATA THAT I HAD COLLECTED. I'M LIKE, WOW, THAT'S, THAT'S LITERALLY DRIPPING. WELL, IN THE WORLD WE LIVE IN, THERE'S PLENTY OF DATA AND IT DEPENDS ON WHAT YOU DRAW FROM. HEY, FORD, CHEVY AND DODGE ARE ALL BEST SELLING TRUCKS IN AMERICA. SO THAT'S WHAT I LIKE IT BECAUSE IT'S A FAIL SAFE FOR WHEN YOUR FAMILY REFUSES TO GET ON BOARD. SOMETIMES WITH THE. MY FAMILY'S A LITTLE SLOW OR FORGETFUL ABOUT THE WINTER AVERAGING. SO IN ADDITION TO THE FREEZES, I'M PRETTY HAPPY TO HAVE AN OPTION THAT HELPS US REPAIR OUR BAD MONTH, I THINK. I MEAN, I DO THINK THE OPTION TO DROP THE HIGHEST IS LIKE THAT IS GOOD. THE CHALLENGE IS FREEZES DON'T ALWAYS HAPPEN PERFECTLY WITHIN A MONTH EITHER. SO WHAT HAPPENS WHEN IT HAPPENS OVER WEEKEND, JANUARY TO FEBRUARY OR DECEMBER TO JANUARY? AND SO THEN IN TWO DIFFERENT MONTHS, RIGHT? THEN YOU'VE GOT TWO DIFFERENT MONTHS WHERE YOU'VE GOT THIS HAPPENING. SO I SHOULD PROBABLY ADJUST THE LANGUAGE HERE IN JUST A LITTLE BIT. I THINK WE USE MONTH FOR SHORTHAND BECAUSE IT'S WHAT CLICKS WITH PEOPLE'S HEADS A LITTLE BIT MORE, BUT IT'S BILLING CYCLES, WHICH DO STRETCH A LITTLE BIT FROM THE TAIL END OF ONE MONTH AND THEN THROUGH MOST OF ANOTHER MONTH.

SO YEAH. TRUE. BUT YOU GET THAT DRIP OVER TWO DIFFERENT BILLING CYCLES. SO IT DOES HELP A LITTLE BIT, BUT YOU DON'T CAPTURE IT ALL. YOU ONLY CAPTURE HALF OF IT. AND THEN WE'RE STILL YOU HAVE MORE. AND THEN WE'RE HOPING THAT AT LEAST DROPS THE HIGHEST MONTH TO AT LEAST LEVEL THAT OUT. THERE MAY NOT BE A PERFECT SOLUTION. THE PERFECT SOLUTION IS PROBABLY THAT WE COULD ISOLATE AND REMOVE THAT FOR EVERYBODY, BUT WE CURRENTLY, WITH OUR CURRENT SYSTEM, DON'T HAVE THAT OPTION. I DON'T THINK WE CAN AFFORD THE STAFF TO DO THAT. I HOPE WE GO THROUGH EVERYTHING I'M THINKING. I KIND OF AGREE WITH DOCTOR SESSIONS. I, I THINK IT'S ONLY HAPPENED A FEW TIMES IN THE LAST FEW YEARS. I MEAN, I'M FINE WITH OPTION TWO IF THAT'S THE WAY WE WANT TO GO, BUT I. OPTION THREE, FOR ME, I THINK WE'RE REASONABLE ENOUGH PEOPLE LIKE YOU SAID THAT WE CAN BRING THIS WHENEVER THERE'S AN ISSUE. THAT WOULD SOLVE. THEN THE CHALLENGE WITH IF IT DID GO OVER TWO MONTHS TO UNDERSTAND A LITTLE BETTER AND, AND NEED TO ADJUST IF NEEDED. YEAH, I WOULD AGREE WITH THAT AS WELL. OPTION THREE LOOKING AT THAT ONE, I DISAGREE JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT THE STANCE IS KNOWN AND THAT I GOT MESSAGES THIS WEEK ABOUT PEOPLE GETTING THEIR NEW GETTING PREPARED FOR THEIR NEW BILLING ON WINTER AVERAGING.

AND EVERY SINGLE YEAR IT'S THE SAME THING. AND MAYBE IT'S JUST NEW RESIDENTS WHERE THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THEY'RE LOOKING AT, HOW TO ACCOUNT FOR IT. AND I JUST THINK I OUT BEFORE THE FREEZE OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, A, A PROCESS LIKE OPTION TWO, I THINK IS THE MOST UNDERSTANDABLE AND THE LOWEST BURDEN, BUT IT ALSO HELPS OUR RESIDENTS MORE. I LOVE, I LIKE THAT ONE, SO I WANT TO MAKE SURE I HAD AN EDIT FOR JOHN ON THIS SLIDE THAT WE DIDN'T GET IN THERE. BUT WHEN YOU LEAD WITH NO REVENUE IMPACT OR ADMINISTRATIVE BURDEN, UNLESS YOU GUYS JUST READ THE NO REVENUE IMPACT, IF WE DO THIS, THERE WILL BE A REVENUE IMPACT.

BUT I THINK THE ADMINISTRATIVE BURDEN WILL ACTUALLY BE HIGH TO MODERATE BECAUSE OF ALL THE KIND OF DECISIONS IN THE BACK AND FORTH AND BRINGING IT TO YOU. SO JUST TO BE JUST TO BE TRANSPARENT, I THINK THAT WOULD BE A BETTER, A BETTER STATEMENT OF THAT IMPACT. YOU'RE SAYING

[01:00:05]

JANUARY. FEBRUARY, FEBRUARY. WELL, WE'LL WE'LL DO IT WHENEVER THE FREEZE WAS. YEAH.

I THINK IT'S FEBRUARY. IT WAS A BIRTHDAY FREEZE EVERY YEAR FOR MY KIDS. 26. IT WAS ACTUALLY OVER THE. YEAH. FEBRUARY 22ND ISH. RIGHT. YEAH. SO THAT WOULD BE FEBRUARY. WE'LL MAKE SURE THE HIGHEST MONTH GETS DROPPED IS WHAT WILL END UP BEING OKAY OR THE HIGHEST BILLING CYCLE.

SO LET'S GO AHEAD AND TAKE CARE OF THAT. SO YOU'RE WEARING AVERAGING PROCESS CAN COMPLETE BILLS CAN BE SET AND THEN BRING THIS BACK FOR A VOTE FOR FUTURE POLICY. GOOD. YES, SIR. ALL RIGHT. EXCELLENT. THANK YOU COUNCIL I APPRECIATE THAT. AND THEN ITEM F CHANGES TO SECTION

[2.F. Briefing - Changes to Section 48E Clean Investment Credit]

BUT AND YOU HEARD EARLIER FROM VALLEY VIEW, WE HAVE WISELY INVESTED THE THE PROCEEDS FOR THIS PROJECT. AND WE HAVE WITHIN OUR PROJECT AMPLE RESERVES. WE HAVE $1 MILLION TO TO OFFSET THIS. AND WE'LL BE WE'LL BE APPLYING FOR OUR TAX CREDIT FOR THE REMAINING MILLION DOLLARS. SO THOSE ARE THOSE ARE THE CHANGES RELATED TO THE ENERGY RECAPTURE TAX

[01:05:03]

[3. PUBLIC INPUT]

YOU KNOW, I PUT FROST. FROST FREE FAUCETS ON ALL MY OUTSIDE FAUCETS, AND NOW I DON'T HAVE TO DO ANYTHING OR I HAVEN'T HAD TO DO ANYTHING. IT HADN'T BEEN A PROBLEM. AND MY HOUSE IS ANCIENT. IT HAS TERRIBLE INSULATION AND ITS PIER AND BEAMS, SO IT'S GOT AIR COMING UNDERNEATH IT AND STUFF. SO IT'S WORST CASE SCENARIO. SO I WOULD THINK PEOPLE WOULD MAYBE WHEN THEY STUFF FREEZES, IT GETS FIXED CORRECTLY, HOPEFULLY. SO IT DOESN'T FREEZE AGAIN. I DON'T KNOW, IT JUST IT SEEMS LIKE A TEENY TINY THING TO BE PUTTING A BUNCH OF TOWN RESOURCES IN YOUR RESOURCES AND, AND THEIR RESOURCES INTO. SO THANKS. THANK YOU. JOEL. ANYONE ELSE THIS EVENING, MISS HARTMAN? HI, MY NAME IS RINA HARDMAN. I LIVE IN THE TOWN OF NORTH LAKE.

ALL OF YOU KNOW THAT I AM A FIERCE SUPPORTER OF PRIVATE PROPERTY RIGHTS. AND BECAUSE OF MY FIGHT FOR PRIVATE PROPERTY RIGHTS, I'VE BEEN CALLED UNHINGED. ON SOCIAL MEDIA BY ALEXANDRA HOLMES AND MEAN BY MAYOR PRO TEM MERRILL LORENZ'S HUSBAND JOSHUA. ALL THIS ON

[01:10:07]

AND I WAS NOT, BECAUSE I'LL PROVE IT TO YOU IN JUST A SECOND. SO ON JANUARY 28TH, I REQUESTED A NUMBER OF DOCUMENTS FROM THE TOWN, PUT IN A PUBLIC INFORMATION REQUEST. IT WAS SUPPOSED TO TAKE TEN BUSINESS DAYS, WHICH WOULD HAVE PUT THAT INFORMATION TO ME BY FEBRUARY 11TH, JUST IN TIME FOR THE FEBRUARY 12TH COUNCIL MEETING. WERE YOU ALL CONSIDERED THE FOR STAGG ZONING? NATURALLY, AS I PREDICTED ONLINE, YOU ALL TOOK 17 BUSINESS DAYS, WHICH PUT IT BEYOND THE FEBRUARY 12TH COUNCIL MEETING. BUT LET ME GIVE YOU A LITTLE CHRONOLOGY REAL QUICK, AND THEN I'M GOING TO SHOW YOU ONE OF YOUR VERY OWN DOCUMENTS. OCTOBER 13TH, YOU PASSED THE ZONING. NOBODY ASKED US ABOUT IT. NOBODY ASKED OUR OPINION. IT'S NOT FOR LEGITIMATE AG PEOPLE. BUT YOU MADE IT OUT TO BE THAT WAY. IT'S IT'S A MISNOMER. OCTOBER 30TH, 2025 ARGYLE ISD PURCHASES 128 ACRES ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE RIDGE AND ANNOUNCES, QUOTE, FUTURE SITE OF SECONDARY CAMPUS. NOVEMBER 5TH. SOCIAL MEDIA ERUPTS AND SOME ARE MAD, ESPECIALLY THOSE IN BRIAN'S PLACE WHO NOW LIVE ADJACENT, WHO MIGHT NOW LIVE ADJACENT TO THIS NEWLY ANNOUNCED FUTURE. SCHOOL COUNCIL MEMBERS THAT ARE DIRECTLY AFFECTED ARE BRIAN MONTINI, MAYOR I MEAN COUNCIL MEMBER GANZ AND MAYOR PRO TEM LORENZ IN THE RIDGE. IN FACT, MONTANA'S HOUSE WILL FACE DIRECTLY AT WHAT WOULD BE THE BACK OF IT NOVEMBER 6TH. MAYOR MONTINI POSTS IN RESPONSE TO TAMMY LYNN DOUGLAS'S POST REGARDING THE FUTURE SCHOOL QUOTE, I HAVE ANOTHER, STRONGER OPTION TO FIGHT THIS THAT WILL BE ON FUTURE AGENDA. AND AGAIN, IN ANOTHER GROUP, MAYOR MONTINI ADDRESSES ME SAYING THAT HE VEHEMENTLY DISAGREES WITH MY NARRATIVE ON THE MATTER. WELL, MY NARRATIVE ON THE MATTER CAME BY WAY OF A PHONE CALL FROM ANOTHER RESIDENT TELLING ME THAT HE HAD CALLED THEM AND ALLEGEDLY TOLD THEM THAT THE REASON WAS FOR THE FORCE. ZONING WAS TO ELIMINATE THE ARGYLE SD. WHEN I STATED THIS IN THE DECEMBER 11TH COUNCIL MEETING, YOU SHOOK YOUR HEAD. NO. OKAY, SO Y'ALL CAN LOOK AT THOSE VIDEOS. OKAY, SO IN SOME OF THE RESPONSES TO MY PUBLIC INFORMATION REQUEST, I JUST WANT TO SHARE WITH YOU JUST ONE EMAIL, ONE EMAIL FROM COUNCIL MEMBER GANS. HE SAYS, NATHAN, CAN YOU GIVE ME SOME BACKGROUND ON THIS MAILING? AND THE SUBJECT LINE IS NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING FOR THE ZONING. CAN YOU GIVE ME SOME BACKGROUND ON THIS MAILING? FIRST, DOES IT AFFECT THE RURAL RESIDENTIAL FIVE ACRE LOTS WITH AN AG EXEMPTION? FROM WHAT I READ, IT ONLY AFFECTS RURAL RESIDENTIAL LOTS THAT ARE LARGER THAN 20 ACRES. SECOND, DOES IT PRIMARILY HAVE TO DO WITH THE PARCEL OF LAND THAT IS TO THE WEST OF THE RIDGE SUBDIVISION? I BELIEVE WE SET THAT UP AS A CRO IN THE DAYS WHEN THE RIDGE WAS STILL KNOWN AS HERITAGE FIELDS. PLEASE REQUESTED THE ZONING CHANGE REAL QUICKLY. LET ME JUST REVEAL THIS TO EVERYBODY IF YOU DON'T MIND. WE HAD 30 MINUTES FOR OUR PRESENTATION OF THE 15 FOR THE THE HOSPITAL. AT LEAST YOU COULD GIVE SOME EXTRA TIME TO A TOWN RESIDENT. THIS SAYS, HERE'S THE RESPONSE. AND IT WASN'T A MISTAKE BECAUSE IT WAS SENT TO DREW FIRST FROM NATHAN.

DREW OKAYED IT AND THEN DREW, AND THEN NATHAN SENT IT BACK TO COUNCIL MEMBER GANZ. HE SAYS, HELLO, COUNCIL MEMBER GANZ, THIS NOTICE IS REGARDING THE REZONING OF UNDEVELOPED RURAL RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY LARGER THAN 20 ACRES TO AG. WE DISCUSSED IT SEVERAL TIMES WITH COUNCIL. THE LAST ACTION WAS A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO CREATING THE ZONING DISTRICT. THE NEXT STEP IS TO ACTUALLY ZONE PROPERTIES. IT DOES NOT AFFECT ANY FIVE ACRE LOT SUCH AS YOURS.

THEY WILL REMAIN ZONED RURAL. RESIDENTIAL ONLY AFFECTS PROPERTIES LARGER THAN 20 ACRES AS IT. THAT'S THE MINIMUM LOT SIZE FOR ZONING DISTRICT. THIS REZONING IS TOWN INITIATED AT THE REQUEST OF THE MAYOR AND ALTHOUGH IT'S BEEN PLANNED, THE CURRENT TIMING IS RELATED TO THE LAND WEST OF THE RIDGE. WE WILL DISCUSS MORE TONIGHT IN EXECUTIVE SESSION. SO IT ACTUALLY IS RELATED TO THAT LAND. THANK YOU FOR READING MR. REDMOND'S OPINION. I APPRECIATE THAT HIS OPINION THAT WAS OKAYED BY YOUR TOWN MANAGER TO BE SENT TO YOU. YOUR TIME IS UP, MA'AM. THANK YOU SO MUCH. SIT DOWN. ANYBODY ELSE FOR PUBLIC COMMENT TONIGHT? SEEING NONE,

[4. CONSENT ITEMS]

[01:15:26]

[5. TAX INCREMENT REINVESTMENT ZONE NUMBER ONE BOARD MEETING ]

REGARDING A TOURIST TAX INCREMENT REINVESTMENT ZONE, Y'ALL ARE BASICALLY GIVING AWAY THE TOWN. WHENEVER YOU GIVE AWAY THESE REINVESTMENT ZONES TO THESE DEVELOPERS, YOU'RE GIVING BACK MONEY THAT YOU DON'T GIVE TO NORMAL CITIZENS. YOU DON'T GIVE THEM TO ANY LANDOWNERS THAT WANT TO EXCUSE ME, IMPROVE THEIR PROPERTIES. YOU DON'T GIVE THEM TO ANYBODY ELSE BUT DEVELOPERS. SO I WOULD SAY NO TO A TOURS. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME. THANK YOU. CONSIDER THE ADOPTION OF AMENDMENT TO PROJECT AND FINANCING PLAN FOR TOURS. NUMBER ONE, RECOMMENDING ADOPTION OF ORDINANCE BY TOWN COUNCIL APPROVED THE SAME. NATHAN. THANK YOU. MAYOR. THIS IS EXISTING TOURS ACTUALLY FIRST TOURS IN THE TOWN THAT COVERS THE PORTION OF CANYON FALLS IN THE TOWN OF NORTH LAKE, CREATED BACK IN 2015, ITS PRIMARY PURPOSE WAS FOR CONSTRUCTION, MAINTENANCE AND OPERATION OF TRAIL SYSTEM AND PARK AND RECREATIONAL FACILITIES IN THE TOURS, AS WELL AS SOME STREET AND ROAD IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS. THE ORIGINAL PROJECT AND FINANCING PLAN OUTLINED THESE. THAT HAS BEEN AMENDED A COUPLE OF TIMES BACK IN 2020 THAT REMOVED THE STREET AND ROAD IMPROVEMENTS, AND LAST YEAR THERE WAS AN AMENDMENT THAT INCLUDED A RETAINING WALL REPAIR PROJECT. SO THIS IS ANOTHER AMENDMENT BEFORE YOU TONIGHT. AND THIS THIS TOURS DOES REIMBURSE THE DEVELOPER FOR ADDING ADDITIONAL IMPROVEMENTS OVER WHAT WAS TYPICALLY REQUIRED. DEVELOPER IS REIMBURSED FOR CERTAIN IMPROVEMENTS OUTLINED IN THE TOURS PLAN, PRIMARILY THAT TRAIL SYSTEM AND PARK AND RECREATIONAL FACILITIES. SO FAR, ABOUT 860,000 HAS BEEN REIMBURSED TO DATE. ANOTHER 3.6 MILLION IS REMAINING DUE, ACCORDING TO THE CURRENT AGREEMENT WITH THE DEVELOPER.

THE PROPOSALS FOR A FINAL LUMP SUM PAYMENT OF $2 MILLION, WHICH WILL BE MEMORIALIZED IN AMENDED AGREEMENT, WHICH IS THE NEXT ACTION. SO THE PURPOSE OF THIS AMENDMENT, THIS IS AMENDING THAT PROJECT AND FINANCING PLAN TO UPDATE AND REVISE, TO REVISE ESTIMATED COSTS AND TO SHOW THAT THIS REIMBURSEMENT IS TO PAY THAT OBLIGATION IN FULL. SO HOPE YOU LISTEN CAREFULLY ON THIS ONE, BECAUSE YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS AGAIN. I DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO GO BACK THROUGH THE PRESENTATION. SO YOU HAVE TO ADOPT THIS AS A TOURIST BOARD FIRST, AND THEN TOWN COUNCIL WILL HAVE TO ACT ON IT SEPARATELY FOLLOWING A PUBLIC HEARING WHEN YOU'RE ACTING ON IT. TOWN COUNCIL. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. WITH THAT, DO I HAVE A MOTION? MAY I ASK A QUESTION? YES, SIR. FOR $2 MILLION, $3.5 MILLION DEBT. 3.6.6. I MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE. I'LL SECOND. MOTION FROM DOCTOR SESSIONS AND SECOND FROM MAYOR PRO TEM LAWRENCE. MOTION CARRIES UNANIMOUS. AND THEN CONSIDER APPROVAL OF ALTERATION OF THE BOARD CHAIRMAN TO EXECUTE AN AMENDMENT TO PROJECT FUNDING AGREEMENT. NOW, THIS IS JUST AMENDING THE THE AGREEMENT TO PROVIDE FOR THAT LUMP SUM PAYMENT AND THAT IT CONSTITUTES

[01:20:02]

MOTION CARRIES UNANIMOUS WITH NO FURTHER ITEMS TO CONSIDER. THE NUMBER ONE BOARD WILL ADJOURN THE MEETING AND REGULAR TOWN COUNCIL MEETING WILL BE RECONVENED.

ALRIGHT, GUESS WHAT WE'RE DOING. CONSIDER APPROVAL RESOLUTION TO. OH, NO, THIS IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT. LOOK, SEE, LOOK, YOU PUT THEM OUT OF ORDER. YOU'RE JUST TRICKING ME NOW, ALRIGHT?

[6.A. Consider approval of a Resolution of the Town of Northlake, Texas, reconstituting the Capital Improvement Advisory Committee; appointing members to serve on the Capital Improvement Advisory Committee, and establishing the duties of the committee in accordance with Chapter 395 of the Texas Local Government Code]

[6.A. VOTE]

[6.B. Consider adoption of an Ordinance of the Town of Northlake, Texas, amending the Code of Ordinances of the Town of Northlake, Texas, pursuant to Texas Transportation Code Section 545.356 and Chapter 11, Traffic and Vehicles, Article 11.03, Operation of Vehicles, Section 11.03.043, Speed Limits on Specific Streets; providing the maximum prima facie speed limit for Flanagan Farm Drive, Prairie View Drive, and Prairie Mound Court within the corporate limits of the Town of Northlake, Texas, and establishing a speed limit of 25 miles per hour by ordinance as authorized by state law ]

WELCOME, CAPTAIN THORNTON. GOOD AFTERNOON, COUNCIL AND MAYOR. ALL RIGHT. SO BACKGROUND ON THIS REAL QUICK. THIS POLICE ADMINISTRATION PRESENTED THE COUNCIL REGULATIONS REGARDING REDUCING THE SPEED LIMITS BACK IN FEBRUARY. PRAIRIE VIEW FARMS REQUESTED REDUCING THE SPEED LIMITS IN THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD TO 25MPH. SPECIFICALLY, THAT INCLUDED PRAIRIE VIEW DRIVE, FLANAGAN FARM DRIVE, AND PRAIRIE MOUNT COURT. WE WERE CONSULTED WITH LEGAL TO DRAFT AN ORDINANCE TO REDUCE THE SPEED LIMITS IN CERTAIN AREAS, PER THEIR REQUEST, TO THE 25 MILE PER HOUR ZONE, AND THE CHANGES REQUIRE SPECIAL SIGNAGE AND ANNUAL REPORTING. AND THAT'S IT. ANY QUESTIONS? QUESTIONS? VERY GOOD. DO I HAVE MOTIONS? SINCE IT'S AN ORDINANCE CHANGE, WE WE HAVE TO HAVE A PUBLIC HEARING. OH. IS THAT. NO. I'M SORRY. I'M SORRY.

[01:25:02]

[6.B. VOTE]

[6.C. Consider approval of an Ordinance of the Town of Northlake, Texas, approving an amended Project and Financing Plan for Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone Number One, Town of Northlake, Texas; providing a severability clause; and providing an effective date]

IT'S IT'S 657 AND THEN YOU HAVE QUESTIONS FOR STAFF. GO AHEAD. YEAH. DO WE HAVE ANY NUMBERS ABOUT EXTRA MONEY THAT WE TALKED THE THERE WERE SOME ROAD FAILURES. THE ROADS WERE NOT BUILT BY THE TOURS. THEY WERE BUILT BY THE DEVELOPER. WE ATTEMPTED TO CALL THE BOND. THE BOND COMPANY REFUSED THAT, BUT WE DID HAVE A CAPITAL PROJECT TO REPAIR SOME ROADS. THERE WAS A SOME INFILL BY A SEWER PIPE THAT CAUSED IT TO FAIL. I FORGOT THE NAME OF THOSE. NO, IT WASN'T TERS MONEY. THE. THE TRAIL WAS BUILT BY THE DEVELOPER TO BE REPAID BY THE DEVELOPER OR REPAID. FROM THE TOURS TO THE DEVELOPER, AND YOU SAW THE ITEM. THIS WILL PAY THEM OFF SOONER. THERE WAS A FAILURE OF THAT. PART OF THE TOURS PLAN INCLUDES HAVING THE TOURS BUILD BUILD BACK THAT. SO FOR THE AUDIENCE TOURS IS TAKES THE A ZONE AND ANY INCREMENT.

SO ANY NEW VALUE THAT'S GAINED BY THAT DEVELOPMENT, THOSE TAXES CAN BE INVESTED BACK IN THAT ZONE, BUT ONLY FOR PUBLIC PURPOSE. AND SO THE PUBLIC PURPOSE FOR THIS ZONE WAS PRIMARILY THE TRAIL. THERE WAS ALSO A SPLASH PAD AND A DOG DOGH OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. BUT THAT'S WHAT MATTERS DOES IT GETS THE DEVELOPER TO BUILD THE WHAT THE TOWN WOULD NORMALLY BUILD PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE AND GIVES THEM THAT REIMBURSEMENT BACK OVER TIME. SO INSTEAD OF THE TOWN FINANCING IT, THE DEVELOPER FINDS IT, FINANCES IT, AND GETS PART OF THAT TAX BASE.

THAT TAX BASE IS INCREASED BECAUSE OF THEIR DEVELOPMENT. SO IT'S LIKE, IT'S LIKE ISOLATING AN AREA AND HAVING IT PAY FOR ITSELF. BUT FOR PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE. I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S OFFLINE. CAN I ASK YOU A QUESTION OR TELL ME WHEN YOU CAN? ABOUT TIMING FOR WHICH

[01:30:06]

[6.C. VOTE]

WHAT DID YOU. YEAH, I PRESSED IT. SECOND TAB TO SEE IF IT SHOWS. THERE IT IS.

THERE'S AN ERROR TAB. ALL RIGHT. THERE WE GO. MOTION CARRIES SEVEN ZERO. UNANIMOUS. ALL

[6.D. Consider approval of a Resolution of the Town of Northlake, Texas, approving and authorizing the Town Manager to execute an Amendment to the Project Funding Agreement for Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone Number One, Town of Northlake, Texas, for public improvements in Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone Number One, to reimburse the Developer for the remaining “Qualified Construction Costs” for the Projects in the amount of $2,000,000 ]

[6.D. VOTE]

[6.E. Consider approval of an Ordinance of the Town of Northlake, Texas, amending Ordinance No. 24 0222A, the Northlake Next Comprehensive Plan 2045, by revising the future land use classification for a 281-acre tract of land in the S. Roberts Survey, Abstract No. 207, the F. Borden Survey, Abstract No. 1127, and the E. Springer Survey, Abstract No. 1166, in the Town of Northlake from Industrial Innovation to Suburban Neighborhood and revising the future land use map in accordance therewith; providing that this ordinance is cumulative; providing a severability clause; providing for publication; and providing an effective date. Case # 26-CPA00001]

THIS IS THE FIRST ITEM OF THREE IN A ROW HERE. THEY'RE ALL RELATED TO THE SAME PROJECT. SO THIS FIRST ITEM IS A COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT. AND THE NEXT ITEM WILL BE ANNEXATION. THIS PROPERTY IS 281 ACRES. 82 OF IT IS CURRENTLY IN THE TOWN LIMITS.

THE REMAINDER 199 ACRES IS IN HER ETJ. IT'S LOCATED EAST OF 156 AND SOUTH OF DOWN ROAD, WHICH IS ALSO FIRST STREET IN JUSTIN. THE. THE OWNERS OF THE PROPERTY ARE HEIRS OF A FOUNDING FAMILY IN NORTH LAKE. THE DOWNS AND THE APPLICANT DEVELOPER IS A FOUR STAR REAL ESTATE GROUP. SO THEY. THEY HAVE THE PROPERTY UNDER CONTRACT. CURRENTLY. THIS IS A VIEW OF THE PROPERTY ON THE MAP. YOU CAN SEE THAT BLUE IS THE PORTION THAT'S IN THE TOWN LIMITS. YOU'LL SEE THE PROXIMITY OF THIS TO JUSTIN AND 156, WHICH WILL SERVE AS THE PRIMARY ACCESS TO IT. SO THIS PROPERTY IS CURRENTLY THE PORTION THAT'S IN THE TOWN LIMITS ZONED AGRICULTURE. THAT HAPPENED ON FEBRUARY 12TH WITH THE REZONING FROM RURAL RESIDENTIAL TO TO AG. THE PORTIONS OUTSIDE OF THE TOWN AND THE ETJ, THERE'S NO ZONING.

BUT UPON ANNEXATION, WHICH IS ON THIS SAME AGENDA, IT WOULD DEFAULT TO THE AG ZONING. AND FOLLOWING THE ANNEXATION, THERE'S A ZONING CHANGE ITEM ON HERE TO CHANGE THE ZONING TO MIXED USE PLAN DEVELOPMENT AND TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN AND TO BE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IS WHY THIS COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT IS BEFORE YOU. THE PROPOSED ZONING THAT YOU'LL SEE LATER ON THE AGENDA IS MIXED USE PLAN DEVELOPMENT. IT INCLUDES A BASE ZONING OF RURAL ESTATE AND NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL AND PROVIDES FOR A MIXTURE OF USES, INCLUDING PRIMARILY SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL WITH A RANGE OF LOT SIZES AT A MAXIMUM DENSITY OF THREE UNITS PER GROSS ACRE. IT ALSO ALLOWS FOR A LIMITED AMOUNT OF NEIGHBORHOOD, COMMERCIAL AND PRESERVATION OF LARGE OPEN SPACES, PRIMARILY WITHIN THE FLOODPLAIN. SO THE CURRENT FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION IN THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN CALLS FOR THIS AS THE INDUSTRIAL INNOVATION PLACE TYPE KIND OF BUILDING ON THE INDUSTRIAL JUST NORTH OF THE THE SPEEDWAY FURTHER SOUTH OF THIS PROPERTY, THE PROPOSED FUTURE LAND USE

[01:35:01]

AMENITY CENTER POOL, LOTS OF OPEN SPACE, ROYSE CITY AND MADERA. SO THIS IS A SMALLER COMMUNITY. SO THIS IS 400 LOTS AND IT'S GOT AN AMENITY CENTER WITH A POOL. IT'S GOT ENTRY MONUMENTS, THE WHOLE NINE AGAIN, LEGATO AND CLEBURNE KIND OF THE SAME THING. ADDITIONAL EXAMPLES.

THIS IS ANOTHER MASTER PLAN COMMUNITY IN NEW CANEY, JUST OUTSIDE OF SAN ANTONIO. OVER A THOUSAND LOTS AGAIN, AMENITY CENTER, LOTS OF OPEN SPACE, HUGE POND WITH TRAILS, SO ON AND SO FORTH. AND I'M JUST GOING TO SKIP THIS ONE BECAUSE IT'S THE SAME SPIEL, COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT. SO TO NATHAN'S POINT, WE ARE HERE FOR THREE ITEMS TONIGHT.

SO THE FIRST IS COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT REQUEST. THE SECOND WOULD BE FOR ANNEXATION.

AND THE THIRD WOULD BE TO REZONE THE PROPERTY. SO THE CURRENT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN IS INDUSTRIAL INNOVATIVE WHICH WOULD ALLOW DATA CENTERS, SHOWROOMS R&D. AND OUR PROPOSED COMP PLAN AMENDMENT WOULD BE TO BE SUBURBAN NEIGHBORHOOD, WHICH WOULD ALLOW MIXED USE PLANNED DEVELOPMENT, SINGLE FAMILY Y SUBURBAN NEIGHBORHOOD. IT'S CONSISTENT WITH ADJACENT PROPERTIES NORTH OF DOWN ROAD AND WEST OF 156. IT WILL ALLOW THE FUTURE LAND USE TO ALIGN WITH SINGLE FAMILY DEVELOPMENT, SUCH AS THE RIDGE PECAN SQUARE CANYON FALLS, WHICH ARE ALL VERY SUCCESSFUL IN NORTHLAKE. AND WE KIND OF WANT TO MODEL THIS SUBDIVISION AFTER THOSE COMMUNITIES. INHERENTLY, IT WILL REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF ROADWAY WEAR AND TEAR AND STACKING ALONG. 156 IF THIS PROPERTY WERE TO BE INDUSTRIAL, INNOVATIVE. ADDITIONALLY, ALTERNATIVE AND PREFERRED DEVELOPMENT SCENARIOS WITHIN THE COMP PLAN COMP PLAN

[01:40:04]

THAT'S FOR THE ENTIRE PROJECT. SO OBVIOUSLY THE 60 FOOT LOTS WILL BE MORE EXPENSIVE IN THE 30S, WILL BE CHEAPER. SO I COULDN'T GIVE YOU AN EXACT NUMBER UNTIL WE GET A CONTRACT.

THESE LOTS WITH THE BUILDER LESS EXPENSIVE. JUST SO I UNDERSTAND, BECAUSE YOU'VE LOOKED INTO PECAN SQUARE, THE RIDGE, IT SOUNDS LIKE IT SOUNDS LIKE THIS IS STARTING, CORRECT? YES, MA'AM. YES, MA'AM. OKAY. REMIND ME. I DON'T REMEMBER IF IT'S IN THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT OR NOT. IS THERE GOING TO BE AN HOA REQUIRED? I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S REQUIRED.

THERE WILL BE ONE. OKAY. BECAUSE WE GOT IN SOME ISSUES WITH ANOTHER DEVELOPMENT WHERE HOA WAS STARTED, BUT NOT NECESSARILY REQUIRED. OKAY. SO THEY COULD DISSOLVE THAT IF THEY CHOSE. OKAY. YEAH. MORE THAN HAPPY TO TO CONNECT ON THAT ONE. I WE'RE, WE'RE PRO HOA. OKAY. WHAT WORK DOES YOUR COMPANY DO YOU KNOW, WITH YOU CONNECTING 407 1171 WITH, FOR EXAMPLE, TEX DOT TO HELP THOSE PROJECTS? SO WHAT WORK ARE YOU GUYS DOING OR WOULD YOU BE DOING TO HELP MOVE THOSE ALONG? YOU KNOW, IT'S FUNNY, THIS QUESTION CAME UP IN PLANNING AND ZONING A FEW WEEKS AGO. I WISH WE HAD POOL WITH TXDOT. UNFORTUNATELY, TXDOT IS OUT OF OUR CONTROL. SO IDEALLY IF THEY SEE NTP COMING IN AND IF THEY SEE LOTS COMING IN THE GROUND, THEN THAT MIGHT EXPEDITE. 1171 BUT UNFORTUNATELY, WE HAVE NO SAY WITH TXDOT. AND I KNOW THAT WHENEVER PROJECTS GET TO THIS POINT WHERE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT IT RIGHT HERE, WE'VE TALKED ABOUT IT IN EXECUTIVE SESSION A NUMBER OF TIMES, WHICH IS HOW WE KIND OF GET TO THIS. I KNOW THAT WHEN I WAS A CASUAL VIEWER OF OUR COUNCIL MEETINGS, I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND HOW THIS PART OF THE PROCESS WORKED. SO THIS ISN'T OUR FIRST TIME HEARING ABOUT THE LAND. I JUST FELT LIKE THAT IS AN EDUCATIONAL PIECE TO SAY. IS THAT GOOD WITH QUESTIONS? ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. NEXT WE WILL HAVE A PUBLIC HEARING ON THIS. IT IS 7:14 P.M. I'LL OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING. MY NAME IS RENA HARTMAN. ARE THERE ANY IMAGES THAT YOU CAN SHOW OF THE DESIGN OF THE NEW PROPOSAL? IF YOU COULD SHOW TO THE PUBLIC FACTUAL QUESTION, WERE THERE ANY IN THE SLIDE DECK? THERE'LL BE SOME CONCEPT PLANS. OKAY. AND IN THE NEXT SLIDE I'M GOING TO BE SOME DRAWINGS. EXCUSE ME, MAYOR, WOULD YOU SAY IN THE NEXT ITEM THERE WILL BE SOME DRAWINGS WHICH YOU'RE GOING TO AGREE TO THIS CHANGE WITHOUT SEEING ANY OF THE CONCEPT PLANS OR AGREEMENTS ALREADY BEEN APPROVED. UNDERSTAND THAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR AN AMENDMENT.

OKAY. JUST CONSIDER THE DENSITY OF THIS AND THAT LAND IS MORE VALUABLE AS COMMERCIAL TO THE TOWN TAX BASE THAN RESIDENTIAL. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME. JOEL MCGREGOR, 8921 EAST FAMILY LANE.

[01:45:07]

THAT'S THE ONLY CONNECTION THAT THEY HAVE TO THE OUTSIDE WORLD. IT'S 156. THEY'LL HAVE AN EMERGENCY ACCESS CONNECTION TO THE JUSTIN CEMETERY ROAD ON THE SOUTH. BUT INITIALLY PRIMARY ACCESS WILL BE THROUGH FIRST STREET AND 156. THEN THE THING THAT'S REALLY KILLED NORTH LAKE LATELY IS THE TEX-DOT NOT WIDENING AND IMPROVING THEIR ROADS. FORTUNATELY, IN THIS AREA, 156 HAS BEEN WIDENED. THEY WILL BE BUILDING THIS COLLECTOR THAT'S ON OUR THOROUGHFARE PLAN, AND IT WILL ULTIMATELY BE ABLE TO BE EXTENDED DOWN TO 1171 WHEN THAT'S DONE. SO THAT WILL ADD EVEN EVEN MORE OPTIONS AND RELIEF. THANK YOU NATHAN. YEAH, I THINK IF IT WAS, I THINK IF IT WAS ANOTHER FIRST OF ALL, WHENEVER WE DID OUR. YEAH, I THINK SO. WHENEVER WE DID THE SURVEY FOR THE TOWN, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT THEY DID IDENTIFY, NOT THE. THE RESIDENT SURVEY, BUT WHERE WE DID, WHERE PEOPLE CAME IN AND LOOKED AT THE VISION BOARDS AND, AND PUT ALL THOSE QUESTIONS. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE DIDN'T HAVE WAS LIKE MISSING THE MISSING MIDDLE AND HOMES FOR PEOPLE TO WORK AT THAT, THAT AFFORDABLE HOMES FOR THE PEOPLE THAT ARE GOING TO WORK AT THE THINGS LIKE MP MATERIALS AND THE STUFF THAT'S COMING INTO OUR INDUSTRIAL ZONE, WE'VE WORKED REALLY HARD TO STYMIE ADDITIONAL RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT, KIND OF UP HERE IN THE MORE TRADITIONAL RESIDENTIAL ZONE. BUT THAT WHERE WE'RE LOOKING AT THIS FOR, YOU KNOW, BASICALLY DOWN BY WHERE IT TRANSITIONS INTO JUSTIN IS ALREADY SET WITH THAT. SO. IT DOESN'T PRESENT THE SAME PROBLEMS TO ME AS IT DOES WHEN IT'S COMING INTO 407 OR GOING ON TO, YOU KNOW, THESE ALREADY REALLY COMPACT ROADS. WE'RE NOT ADDING TRAFFIC THERE AT ALL. IF ANYTHING, WE'RE GIVING THEM SOMEWHERE ELSE TO LOOK TO BUY A HOUSE IN OUR TOWN. AND WE'VE TAKEN A PRETTY LARGE PAUSE ON APPROVING NEW DEVELOPMENT FOR RESIDENTIAL EIGHT YEARS, IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN. YEAH. AND THAT THIS ISN'T GOING TO BE SOMETHING THAT THEY CAN BUILD TOMORROW AND THAT THEY'RE ALSO BUILDING US A ROAD I DON'T. YOU KNOW, IF THEY HAD A COMMERCIAL BUYER FOR THE LAND, THE PROPERTY WAS FOR SALE FOR A PRETTY GOOD WHILE. AND IF THEY HAD A COMMERCIAL BUYER, WE'D BE TALKING TO THEM. BUT THAT'S NOT THAT'S NOT WHERE WE AT. ALL. RIGHT. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION OR MOTIONS? I'LL GO AHEAD AND MOTIONS. MOTION TO APPROVE FOR MISS HOLMES. SECOND. SECOND FOR MR. PIZZUTO. AND WE'RE GOING TO

[6.E. VOTE]

[6.F. Consider adoption of an Ordinance of the Town of Northlake, Texas, providing for the annexation of approximately 199 acres of land generally located east of FM 156 and south of Downe Road, in the exclusive extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ) of the Town. Case # 26-ANX00001 ]

[01:50:04]

AND I THINK ANOTHER IMPORTANCE OF THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT AND PROVIDING FOR ANNEXATION IS BECAUSE OF NEW STATE LAW. WE HAVE VERY LITTLE CONTROL OVER ETJ PROPERTY OWNERS CAN ACTUALLY RELEASE FROM THE ETJ. SO THIS IS A WAY TO TO WORK WITH THE THE PROPERTY OWNER AND POTENTIAL DEVELOPER AND GET IT INTO THE TOWN. AND THAT'S WHY YOU HAVE THIS ANNEXATION REQUEST BEFORE YOU. SO YOU CAN SEE THE AREAS THAT ARE IN THE ETJ WILL BE ANNEXED. IF THIS ANNEXATION IS APPROVED. BEFORE ACTING ON IT, YOU'LL NEED TO HOLD A PUBLIC HEARING. THANK YOU. ONE OF THE COUNCIL'S KEY STRATEGIES IS THE ANNEXATION WHERE POSSIBLE, SO WE DON'T LOSE IT TO THE COUNTY. SO WE WILL OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING FOR THIS AT 7:21 P.M. FOR ANNEXATION. ANY TAKERS? JOEL MCGREGOR, 8921 EAST LANE. THIS AREA, IF IT'S ONLY ACCESSIBLE THROUGH ONE FROM 156, HOW IN THE WORLD ARE THE POLICE GOING TO SERVICE THIS AREA? THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO DRIVE WAY THE HECK OUT OF THERE, OUT OF OUR JURISDICTION, EVEN TO GET TO IT.

BUT THEY'RE GOING TO EXPECT POLICE SERVICE THERE. IT'S GOING TO BE VERY EXPENSIVE.

THANK YOU. JOEL. ANYONE ELSE FOR PUBLIC HEARING? SEEING NONE IS 7:22 P.M. I WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. I WILL MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE ANNEXATION A SECOND I'LL SECOND.

WHICH SECOND MOTION BY MYSELF AND A SECOND FOR MR. MOTION CARRIES UNANIMOUS. AND FINALLY

[6.F. VOTE]

[6.G. Consider adoption of an Ordinance of the Town of Northlake, Texas, amending Chapter 9A, "Unified Development Code," of the Code of Ordinances of the Town of Northlake, Texas, as amended, by changing the zoning classification of a 281-acre tract of land in the S. Roberts Survey, Abstract No. 207, the F. Borden Survey, Abstract No. 1127, and the E. Springer Survey, Abstract No. 1166, in the Town of Northlake from "AG" Agricultural to "M-PD" Mixed-Use Planned Development and revising the official zoning map in accordance therewith; providing for the adoption of development standards; providing for the adoption of a concept plan; providing a penalty for violation; providing for severability; providing that this ordinance is cumulative; providing a savings clause; providing for publication; and providing an effective date. Case # 26-PDA00001]

OKAY. SURE. I'LL MAKE SURE WE DON'T HAVE TO CHASE THAT DOWN LATER. AND THE OPEN SPACE IS AT THE FLOODPLAIN. YES, MOST OF THAT IS FLOODPLAIN. GO AHEAD AND CONTINUE ON. THANK YOU.

ANSWER MY QUESTION. SO NOW THAT YOU'VE APPROVED THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENT, THIS CONFORMS TO THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, CONFORMS TO THE ENTITLEMENTS APPROVED IN

[01:55:04]

AND I DON'T BELIEVE IN ALL MY YEARS OF BEING IN THE INTERIOR DESIGN AND ARCHITECTURAL BUSINESS THAT I'VE EVER SEEN LESS DETAILED PLANS. I DON'T KNOW THAT NORTHLAKE HAS EVER CONSIDERED A LESS DETAILED PLAN THAN WHAT YOU ALL SHOWED TO THE PUBLIC JUST NOW. I MEAN, THERE'S NO DETAIL TO IT WHATSOEVER, AND I'M USED TO LOOKING AT DETAILED ARCHITECTURAL PLANS. SO THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. THANK YOU. ANYONE ELSE THIS EVENING? ALRIGHT, IT IS 7:28 P.M. I'LL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. AND WITH THAT, WE'VE DONE THE COMP PLAN. BARELY. AND THEN WE GOT THE ZONING. SO NOW THIS IS. I'M SORRY. WE DID THE ANNEXATION.

SO NOW THEY'RE IN TOWN AND WE DO HAVE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT IN PLACE. SO IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THE ECONOMICS OF OUR OF THE WAY THAT WE HAVE OUR POLICE SERVICE, BECAUSE WE TALKED ABOUT THIS A LITTLE BIT, THE ECONOMICS OF THE WAY THAT WE HAVE OUR POLICE SERVICE IS THAT THE COST OF THE THE COST TO PATROL THE AREA IS, IS ACCOUNTED FOR WITH THE PROPERTY TAX BASE THAT WE'RE ADDING. ROUGHLY SPEAKING, OUR PROPERTY TAX, THE 29.5 CENTS, ABOUT HALF OF IT IS OPERATIONS, WHICH IS SUPPORTS POLICE DEPARTMENT. AND THE OTHER HALF IS DEBT SERVICE, WHICH SUPPORTS OUR ROADS. SO YES, ALL OPERATING PROPERTY TAXES GO TO POLICE AND ALL INS PROPERTY TAXES GO TO ROADS. SO THEY'RE GOING TO PLAY. THEY'RE GOING TO PAY FOR THE ADDITIONAL FEES THESE RESIDENTS WILL PAY. THESE RESIDENTS WILL PAY THE SAME WAY THAT WE DO BECAUSE THEY'RE ANNEXED NOW, BECAUSE THEY'RE ANNEXED NOW. THEY WOULDN'T HAVE.

THE QUESTION HASN'T BEEN ANSWERED, THOUGH. IS IT GOING TO PAY FOR ITSELF? IN THE WHOLE.

YES. THE THERE IS COMMERCIAL IN THIS IN THIS DEVELOPMENT, THERE'S SOME COMMERCIAL. SO WE BELIEVE THAT WILL HELP BALANCE THE SCALES, EVEN IT OUT. ANOTHER THING IS FOR OUR WATER AND SEWER SYSTEM, THE THE EXTENSION OF OUR WATER SYSTEM TO OPEN UP MORE AREAS TO GET MORE CUSTOMERS. YOU KNOW, YOUR, YOUR PIPES ARE A SET AMOUNT, YOUR CUP, YOUR CUSTOMERS ARE.

[02:00:10]

ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT. WE WILL TAKE A VOTE. DO I HAVE A MOTION? MOTION APPROVED FOR MISTER GANZ

[6.G. VOTE]

[6.H. Consider adoption of an Ordinance of the Town of Northlake, Texas, amending the Adopted Budget for Fiscal Year October 1, 2025, through September 30, 2026; providing that expenditures for the said fiscal year shall be made in accordance with the said Amended Budget ]

WE'VE BEEN WAITING AND WAITING FOR TEXDOT TO EXPAND THEIR ROADWAYS. AND WE. ALL OUR NEIGHBORS. AND JUST A QUICK ASIDE, I I'M ON A BOARD WITH THE FORMER MAYOR OF JUSTIN IN HIS FIRST QUESTION, WHENEVER HE SEES ME IS HOW THE ROADS ARE DOING BECAUSE HE CUTS THROUGH NORTH LAKE. WE KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE FROM JUSTIN AND PONDER, BUT THAT'S WHAT WE DO. WE SHARE IN THAT. BUT WE. WITH THE MAYOR'S SUGGESTION AND OTHER ACTUAL OTHER COUNCIL MEMBERS, I WAS TRADING EMAILS WITH COUNCIL MEMBER GANS ABOUT ANOTHER ONE OF THESE INTERSECTIONS, ABOUT HOW CAN WE TAKE WHAT WE'VE GOT, TWEAK IT, GET A LITTLE BIT MORE THROUGH WHILE WE'RE WAITING AND WAITING FOR TEXDOT. SO I'VE GOT THREE PROJECTS ON YOUR ON YOUR CONSENT AGENDA. WE'VE ALREADY APPROVED HALF TO START DESIGNING THESE, BUT I WANT TO GO THROUGH THESE. BUT ONCE HE ONCE DENNIS AND HIS CREW GETS THROUGH DESIGNING, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO PAY FOR THESE. SO WANT TO TALK ABOUT THEM AND THEN HOW WE'RE GOING TO PAY FOR THEM. SO THIS IS NORTH IS ON YOUR RIGHT. SOUTH IS ON YOUR LEFT TOWARDS YOUR LEFT. YOU'RE GOING DOWN. 1171 THIS IS THE WESTERN EDGE OF CANYON FALLS. WE FOUND THAT PEOPLE TURNING EAST ON WEST BRIDGE FROM SOUTHBOUND CLEVELAND GIBBS OR BACKING UP TRAFFIC, PEOPLE TRYING TO GET DOWN. 1171. SO WE'VE GOT NOT MUCH RIGHT AWAY, BUT WE'RE GOING TO BUMP OUT AND PUT AN EXTRA LANE. AND SO THE THROUGH TRAFFIC WILL GO AROUND. THERE'LL BE A PROTECTED LEFT TURN LANE. IT WILL PROBABLY GET 4 OR 5 CARS IN THERE. THERE'S USUALLY NOT MORE THAN THAT IN THE MORNINGS, BUT THAT'LL HELP GET SOME OF THAT THROUGH TRAFFIC. THAT'S NUMBER ONE. NUMBER TWO. SO WE HAVE THE ULTIMATE NORTHBOUND DRIVE FROM 1171, FROM WESTBOUND 1171 TO NORTHBOUND CLEVELAND GIBBS. BUT IT DOESN'T GO VERY FAR AT ALL. IN FACT, YOU CAN SEE WHERE THE YOU CAN SEE WHERE THE CONCRETE ENDS. SO THIS WOULD EXTEND THAT CONCRETE. AND THEN ULTIMATELY WE'D HAVE TO GET BACK OVER BECAUSE WE DON'T WE DON'T OWN ANY OF THIS PROPERTY. WE DON'T HAVE RIGHT OF WAY. YET ANOTHER THING TO KEEP IN MIND IS WE'VE GOT A POWER POLE THAT WE'VE GOT TO WORK AROUND. AND THEN FINALLY, THAT THAT BIG YELLOW MARKED OUT AREA IS, IS WHERE IT'S JUST ONE LANE. BUT WE NEED TRUCKS TO BE ABLE TO MAKE THAT TURN. RIGHT NOW THEY HAVE TO NAVIGATE AROUND THIS MEDIAN CUT.

SO THAT'S A VERY TIGHT TURN FOR TRUCKS. WHAT THIS WILL DO ON THE SOUTHBOUND SIDE IS WE'LL GET THAT MUCH DESIRED RIGHT TURN ONLY. SO THAT CLEARS THAT TRAFFIC OUT. WE'LL ACTUALLY BE ABLE TO ESTABLISH TWO TWO LEFT TURN LANES. AND THAT WILL GET A LOT OF THAT TRAFFIC IS HEADING THAT DIRECTION. AND THEN THE THE FEW PEOPLE THAT ARE HEADING INTO THE AIRPORT WILL BE ABLE TO GO STRAIGHT. AND THEN FINALLY, AND THIS WAS KIND OF A LATE BREAKING IMPROVEMENT IS TO HAVE A CURB ISLAND SEPARATED, DEDICATED RIGHT TURN LANE THAT'S INDEPENDENT WITH THAT CURB SEPARATION, IT'S INDEPENDENT OF THAT TRAFFIC SIGNAL CYCLES. SO ANY TRAFFIC

[02:05:02]

AND LIKE YOU SAID, EVEN LIKE WE DON'T OWN THE RIGHT OF WAY TO THIS. I MEAN, YEAH, THIS, THIS PROPERTY OWNER HASN'T, HASN'T DEVELOPED YET. AND THAT'S NOT A HILLWOOD PROPERTY. NO, SIR. AT THAT POINT. SO, SO, BUT LIKE SOME OF THIS, THIS ONE WILL BE, THIS WILL BE DEDICATED TO US.

AND THEY HAVE BEEN PAYING ROAD IMPACT FEES FOR, FOR PECAN SQUARE. THEY'VE BUILT ALL THEIR INTERNAL ROADS, THEIR BORDER ROADS. THIS PROBABLY WON'T, THIS ROAD PARTICULAR WON'T BE NEEDED WHEN ALL OF THIS IS BUILT OUT AND GIBBS IS TAKEN THROUGH. RIGHT. SO IT'S MORE OF A, A TEMPORARY ROAD. BUT WE HAVE WE HAVE AMPLE IMPACT FEES THAT THEY'VE THEY'VE ALREADY CONTRIBUTED SITTING IN THE BANK. SO IN A SENSE, COUNCILMEMBER PIZZUTO, THEY'VE ALREADY THEY'VE ALREADY KIND OF PREPAID FOR THIS WITH THOSE IMPACT FEES. AND THEN FINALLY, THIS THEY DID WHAT WE ASKED THEM TO DO AT CANYON FALLS. AND WE'RE PRETTY MUCH THROUGH WITH THIS DEVELOPMENT ON THIS ONE. NOW, A NEW DEVELOPER IS BUILDING NORTH OF HERE AND THEY'RE BUILDING ALL THEIR ROADS AS WELL. THERE IS A CONCEPT OF ROUGH PROPORTIONALITY THAT THE STATE WON'T LET YOU HAVE THEM BUILD EVERYTHING THEY HAVE TO BUILD WHAT IS ROUGHLY PROPORTIONAL TO WHAT THEIR DEVELOPMENT CAUSES. AND SO WITH OUR ENGINEER AND OUR ATTORNEY, WE BELIEVE THEY'VE DONE THAT. SO I GOT THE MOST CALLS I'VE EVER GOTTEN IN MY TIME ON COUNCIL. THE SECOND THAT WE CLOSED. AND WE GOT TO LEARN VERY, VERY QUICKLY THE AMOUNT OF REGIONAL TRAFFIC THAT FLOWS THROUGH. I THE WEST BRIDGE IN CLEVELAND, GIBBS ONE IS NEEDED AND OVERDUE, AND I'M HAPPY TO SEE THIS ONE ON OUR AGENDA. THE TURN FROM 1171 TO. I'M AT 1171. CROSS TIMBERS.

YEAH. TO GIBBS IS SO DESPERATELY NEEDED. THAT INTERSECTION IS PAINFUL. I'M SO THANKFUL TO SEE THESE. AND I ALSO FOR HOW MUCH IT COSTS FOR US TO DO TO DO ANYTHING. I'M IMPRESSED WITH WHAT WE'RE ABLE TO DO WITH THIS PROJECTED COST. I THINK WE'RE SPENDING SOME MONEY WISELY AND THAT WE SAW WHAT A HUGE PAIN POINT IT WAS. THE DAY, THE DAY THAT WE SHUT THAT DOWN. I THINK THAT ESPECIALLY WITH THE TIME AND WE DIDN'T SHUT IT DOWN, WE REDIRECTED. YES. WELL, WHATEVER IT WAS, I GOT A LOT OF CALLS. YEAH. THE REAL ISSUE THAT WE SAW IS THAT WE ARE SUPPORTING THE REGION FAR MORE THAN EVER INTENDED, DUE TO DELAYS ON 407 DUE TO OTHER TECHS, DOT DELAYS ON 35 ACCESS ROAD. AND WE'RE, WE'RE KIND OF PONYING UP HERE ON STUFF THAT WE REALLY SHOULDN'T HAVE TO, BUT FOR THE EASE OF OUR RESIDENTS AND THEN THE ADDITIONAL BENEFIT OF PEOPLE COMING THROUGH TOWN, THIS ROAD WHEN EVERYTHING'S BUILT, THE ACCESS ROADS ARE BUILT, ETC. THIS ROAD WILL NOT HAVE THE TRAFFIC ON IT THAT WE'RE SEEING TODAY, BUT WE WILL EVENTUALLY HAVE FOUR LANES COMING UP FROM CROSS TIMBERS NORTHWARD AS THE OTHER PROJECTS BUILD. BUT THIS IS WHEN I WAS TALKING WITH STAFF AND TOLD THEM, I THINK IT'S ABOUT A MONTH OR TWO BEFORE THE WHOLE GIBBS AND MULKEY CHANGEOVER. I SAID, HEY, LET'S START LOOKING AT WAYS WE CAN IMPROVE THINGS FOR OUR RESIDENTS AND GET AHEAD OF SOMETHING FOR ONCE. AND STAFF CAME BACK WITH THIS. THE TIMING WAS GREAT. YOU GUYS CAME
