Ah, I'm saying that I'm actually very small. They're all standing out. I'm not actually not doing anything. It's their favorite thing. I'm going to go to the next one. I'm going to go to the next one. I'm going to go to the next one. I'm going to go to the next one. the I'm sorry. All right. Good evening. We will call to order the regular Heath City Council meeting September 24th 6 30 PM. If you would all rise for the invocation and pledge of allegiance. Please pray with me. to be here tonight and thank you for blessing our fine city. And Lord, thank you for that. Please have reign and we're afraid from the summer heat. Lord, we ask that you provide us with original guidance. You deliberate the business before us tonight. Lord, we ask these things in your name and in your name. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States America and to the Republic for which it sanctions, one nation, the country of the United States, the indivisible, the liberty and justice are all wonderful. Thank you, Councilman. At this time, if we could have Mr. Skinner, Mr. Stokes approach the bench here. We do have a proclamation to see the big these gentlemen are doing generally doing more work. So as today we would like to make the proclamation whereas choice for Todd's was founded in 1947 by major Bill Dingeritz and a group of United States Marine Corps and the service and the law standard list to began the initiative by collecting and distributing 5,000 tours to local children in its inaugural year. And whereas in 1948 the Toys for Todd's campaign in Spain, the National Scale and now annually raises awareness, collect toys and solicits monetary donations to ensure that no child goes without on Christmas morning. Whereas the Department of Officer 2 James W. Brandingall, the Marine Board of the Detachment 1465 has been successfully operating in Joyce Protoss campaign right here in Rockwell County since 2018. And where I ask with the support of the community and the dedicated Marines of the Chief War Officer to James W. Randall Marine Corp Lee the Toys for Todd's initiative has experienced significantly in the number of children served and in overall awareness of the program through a three month campaign every year. And whereas the Rockwall toys for Todd's initiative significantly contributes to the well-being of our nation's most valuable assets for children. Through the collaboration of local businesses, including the 20, many more titles sponsored, Mr. Evan Stokes, I'm Stoke Out Construction, Citizens and Rockwall Independent School District. We are all united by a similar mission to raise awareness for those indeed and ensure that no child goes without a birthday. Now therefore I, Jeremiah McClure, Mayor of the city of Heath, do hereby proclaim October 1st, 24, and Heath Texas as toys for talks, 2024, in vain, gig of it. Thank you. What a beautiful thing that you guys are doing. So thank you. Thank you. Okay. At this time, we will move into our public comment section. Mr. Lashar. Thank you. Okay, Mayor. Our first speaker will be Roy Richardson. And before we begin, if anybody signed up on public comments, we do have a number of public hearings inside of this. So this is a public comment just in general or if it's for something that is titled as public hearing then we would try to reserve it for that section. So I'll let you take I don't know about it. So, if you look, it's not on the agenda. I'm sure you'd love to have. The address is 137-2-0 stirrup court in 40 Texas. Sorry. Very well. You can take the lecture. If you'd like to speak. If you come right up here to the microphone, thank you, sir. Well, I'm also just was concerning the single-wide model home going in and a saddle club. But first I wanted to thank the city of heath. As everybody knows, the city of finally starting at vision to protect the home values of the residents as much as possible. So, I'll put an annexation plan in place for saddle club, which was fantastic. And now we have an issue with somebody who lived in a single wide mobile home, which I believe is probably exactly which I were trying to avoid. If we let that one go, I don't think my neighbors would be that disrespectful, but they could put in the mobile home and before you know it, we got a mobile home part there. So, I thought that's what this was about. I'm sorry. Right, this is what did it about? It's not an agenda. Okay, you have a concerns and citizens. Okay, and this is your time of speech. Okay, you have concerns in citizen. Okay, and this is your time. Bottom line is no place but a single wild mobile home in that area and would much appreciated girls like to look at it. Very good. We make thank you. All right. Next on the list, Mr. Lashers. We have to get another recognition. We live with people that are really cool. We are. We're going to run through the comments and then we're gonna do that starting. We have Katie Dreyer who is our chair for the parks board three canms. They do that's why I don't want to rush them on. Let's get them some good recognition. They can they can't or do it now. We would you prefer? We're debating you can speak. You want to do it now? You want to wait? I'd like to wait. Okay. Katie and Dr. Berg they'd like to reserve their comments for when the the park item is called up on the agenda. That's okay. Very well. Okay. Thank you. Then our next one is Deanne Dawkins at 149 Country Club. I'm Deanne Dawkins, I'm 149 Country Club. I just wish to express my concern about the fact that several meetings in a row, this may not be your intent, but I believe this is how a lot of the members of the community feel that these long extended sessions into executive session from the city council as a member of the community. I feel like that it just seemed to be a way to minimize the number of people here that wish to express their concern about the period property. Now, that may not have been your intent, but that is how a lot of us felt. And there were a lot of people who waited, you know, I admire those who waited three hours at the last one. I stayed about two and then I finally went home. But that's just how I feel as a member of the community that you're trying to phase out people who are not staying around to make their comments. Like I said, that may not have been your intent, but that's how I think a lot of members of the community feel. Very well, thank you. All right, Mr. Lajer. We have Polly Bessel 113 Falcon Point. Drive. I want to ask questions and talk about the facility alley. Thank you. Thank you. Well, hopefully, if that doesn't happen, it's all cut off five hours. Okay, our final speaker is Steve. I have trouble reading writing Diceman. Thank you sir. It's one two five five one saddle club. I do. I'm talking about the mobile home and saddle club. I just want to open up the letter from the City Council when we agreed to 212. Now, state and quote that the city of he development agreement is a truly tool both property owners and the city achieve the goals to ensure all property owners in the city of E that the development upholds our vision of the rural and upscale community. Well, from the city manager, okay, 212 designed for us to keep our neighborhoods upscale. That's what we like. That's what we want. We agree to the ETJ. We fought her for almost a year and a half. I'm sure some members here will agree that I know that. I asked for it to be put on the agenda, totally ignored. So we're here in support of all of Saddle Club tonight. And we want you to look at it. I also request we know a letter was sent out by your, I guess I guess the city attorney will under the Texas open racks. I requested a copy of that letter. We want to know what's going on. No one's communicated with us. No one's told us anything whatsoever. So we'd like to know what's going on. And when the ice floor is going to leave. So I view this to you. That's what we look at when we come to our neighborhood every day. Okay? I know you don't learn a mobile home next door to you. Well, I live to it. I go in my back yard. That's what I'm looking at. Every one of them over here. That's what they're looking at. I'm two doors away from it. And we agreed in 2012 and I also quote submit the document as well. That 212 was submitted to Coughman County that no permits, no regulations whatsoever to bring a mobile home into our neighborhood would proceed with permits without your approval. Period, that's the document y'all signed and to it. That's all I got to say. Very good. I hope you're going to share us and uh, certainly both forward. Thank you very much. Thank you. Uh, to note, uh, it it has been, uh, brought to city staff's attention and they are working on it. Correct? That's correct. Good. And yes, all of the things that even our legacy council members worked on with 212 was a was a beautiful document and we will be addressing that as a city. Okay, very good. And then also addressing the executive session, I definitely hear the appeal that hey, we've got to be more mindful. So the city's in a whole lot of litigation. So we do find ourselves trying to balance executive session. Executive search firm was supposed to be teed up at a specific time that they were doing a Zoom call. So the last meeting that we were in definitely got a whole lot of time that we had to address in executive session. So there's nothing ever that we're doing that would cause us to to want to minimize the crowd. Ultimately, as you've seen our public facing communications, we're doing even more now than we've ever done in in transparency and overviews. And we'll just we'll do a better job moving forward on how we try to transition those executive sessions and communicate effectively with the residents. Very well. Okay, at this time, if there are no other public comments, very well. So at this time, we'll move on into agenda item 3.8, FBI, lead agency trilogy award. Kent and Siri, would you come to the lecture? Well, she sure is. There you go. It could be great. And that would be great. Or I have to admit that when I was, oh, I went. Thank you all. Thank you for coming. Thank you for coming. Thanks. Thanks. Thank you for coming. I call the lady and I told her she had to get rid of it. Very well. Well, first of all, I have to admit, I have the directions to get over there. And I was driving and I passed by a rock wall heat school. Let me tell you, I got extremely nervous because my grandson played at Lake Travis last year and Y'all beat the brakes off of it. And so I said, I don't know if I'm going to come off in this bill. And I still have that effect. Every time I get close to Rockwall, I start shaking. Hopefully I'll get over this soon. Well, first of all, I will tell you that I'm gonna tell you like King Henry told us, eight wife, I'm not gonna keep you long. So, but headquarters told me to read this document because I was in, I came like, it was way out by Curbville doing a presentation and I went on and on and on. So they told me to stick to the script. I'm gonna do that. Greetings, Chief Brandon Ciri, members of the Heat Department of Public Safety and other distinguished attendees. On behalf of the FBI leader, President, Chief Joseph, it's Gerald Sr., and our executive board, wish attendees. On behalf of the FBI and leader president chief Joseph Gerald senior and our executive board I bring you greetings from the men and women including our many partners and members across the US and beyond. I'm Greg Hamilton, retired Travis County Sheriff and past president of FBI and leader and I'm very excited to be here this evening. Today is truly my honor to be here representing FBI Lida. Lida stands for Law Enforcement Executive Development Association. And to present the FBI leader agency Trilogy Award to the Heat Department of Public Safety here in Texas, which is a very distinguished accomplishment. FBI Leader presents law enforcement agencies across the country whose entire command staff have completed the FBI Leader Trilogy Leadership Series with the FBI Leader Agency Trilogy Award. The FBI Leader Trilogy Leadership Series consists of three of our flagship courses, Supervisor Leadership, Command Leadership, Executive Leadership, which in this case means all of the members of the Department of Public Safety, Command Staff, completed these courses. And that's a big feat. And I'm not going to only think the department of the chief Siri, but they couldn't do it without the city council and I appreciate you supporting them and allowing them to go through these courses. Oftentimes when their tight budgets, the first thing is cut is training in the law enforcement field. So I applaud you for addressing that. The Heath Department of Public Safety is now the 15th agency in the state of Texas to receive their award and third to receive their award in 2024. Since the inception of the agency, trilogy Awards, there have been 148 recipients. Today we are pleased to present to the Heat Department of Public Safety staff, the FBI, lead out of the agency of Trilogy Award. Congratulations and God bless you. Thank you. Thank you. I'm going to start with the first one. I'm going to start with the second one. I'm going to start with the second one. I'm going to start with the second one. I'm going to start with the second one. I'm going to start with the second one. I'm going to start with the second one. I'm going to start with the second one. I'm going to start with the second one. I'm going to start with the second one. Okay. Now, get in the way. Yeah, please do. We don't just do this to the team with the house fire. It's just. You're waiting. The over. You did. The people are. This. I'm going to be waiting for the over. Give it on to the people who are kind of pissed. I'm sorry. Are you telling me to go and write a paper? Congratulations, and I'm very proud of you. Go on. Thank you. Let's go. I'll say something. Go on. It's very good. Thank you guys. Moving into agenda item number four, this is our council and city manager comments. Mr. Laschert. For those of you who want to get to know your public safety staff a lot more, then just one that in really nice award. Well, we have an event coming up. It's called National Night Out. Most of you, I think you've heard of this. It's gonna be next Tuesday, October the first from 6 to 8 p.m. So please come out and meet your public safety officers, the people who just earned that reward award and also the people who keep you safe. And then also something that's occurring the first of the week in October. We will be chief, I mean, council member Krauss, hold on to your seat. We will be opening up the intersection of Hubbard Drive and Rush Creek. Thank you to Mike Schuck. He's where Mike's not here. We're Brian. A lot of folks are working. We're all of one whole week ahead on this project. But as y'all know, we've got another big event that's coming up at Rush Creek Yacht Club, and that's going to be the 2024 International Sunfish Class Association World Championship. This is a big thing. So we're going to shut down our construction activities during that event. Actually, it's going to be for good two weeks because we're going to leave it on an and convert for people coming in and people coming out. So between October the seventh, I believe three, October the 19th. You won't see a whole lot of work outth then we're going to get back back on this project which has been going on way too long but it's just so nice to say that we're up with J head so. And have a plan and we have a plan. We do so. Alright, thank you Mayor. Thank you Mr. Lashar. Council at this time you have any comments? I think you haven't been to the night out. You can see our, our kind of equipment. You can see your face. And if it's still going to be in the window. But it out. And also. You all know this. Those groups of men say three. They're really. So. Very good. Thank you. Any other comments. Kelsey. All right. Very good. Moving into agenda item number five. This is our consent agenda. I'm not going to read through all of this. This is five.A, five.B, five.C. I would like to make a recommendation that five.D. I get pulled out of this consent There's there's a lot of questions behind that agenda item. That is the action of hurting 900 Evelyn crossing on core easement. So I believe everybody's had time to review this. So at this time, the chair will open the floor. motion to approve consent to items 5A through 5C. Okay. We have a motion on the floor to fruit 5.A which is our meeting minutes approval from last meeting. 5.E which is ordinance and assessment service assessments for Hossiel. Hossi in the day, logo, public improvement district and then action regarding resolution 2409248, which is adding a cyber liability date of reach in or low agreement with Texas Minus will be in our governmental risk pool. Do we have a second? I'm second. All right. We have councilman Paul Well, for the second. All those in favor say aye. Well, I just want to thank Jay for answering some questions that I had that would allow me to keep them on the consent agenda. OK, great. So all those in favor say aye. Aye. Those opposed? All right. Passes. All right, we will now open up the agenda item 5.D. So at this time, do we want to discuss or do we have a motion on this item? I'd be looking to table this for later date as we're looking for staff to get some automation on this item. Is Tom the essence for this? I'm not aware that this is a case deadline specifically. It's it has to do with requesting to put in a 200 amp. There's just some questions about the property in general. It's by the bar. Correct. I think if we need time, let's take the time and hit right. It's not. I'll make a motion to table this item to the next council meeting. Okay. We have a motion on the floor to table the action of adding 900 Ethan crossing on court easement to the next available council meeting, which will be the October 8th. We have a second by Councilman Kraus. So motion moves. All those in favor say aye. Aye. All right. Those are those. Those are the presentation. All right. We have the passes. The animosity. All right. Moving into agenda item 6.A. This is a discussion in action regarding resolution for a final construction budget for renovations and improvements to Townsend apart. Mr. Lashley. Thank you, Mayor and Council. We'll get to you, Dean Dolabee, and we're also want to welcome our members of the parts board who are with us and what I like to do is go through a very quick presentation and then we'll have our design consultants go through the design for the park and with a focus on the aesthetics and then we'll have a discussion about how we actually arrive at this number and then after that we have Katie and Dr. Dreyer here to, I mean, sorry, to kind of give their input because these are two individuals who work very hard on this through the months. That's also make reference and give props to Suzanne Brooke who did a great job in just keeping things pushing when I got snow blind. So what we're going to do, real quickly, just go over the action item that the parks forward packet on last Monday, and after meeting on the 16th. And then very bravely, I'm going to go some slides about the bond issue because early in the year, and I think even through May, there are some questions that were raised about the use of that money before the park, very valid questions, by the way. But the bond is very specific. It's a, and there are some issues of law that I had to reach out to our bond attorney, Mr. Greg Schettner. And he gave us, gave me some advice and some reminders for me to relay onto you and the general public about that. And then we'll turn after that, we'll, we're going to follow the money, follow the money. It's a famous movie. But the money jumped everywhere and we had some challenges as you know with construction inflation, inflation in labor, construction labor up to 14% in Greece. Then we had post-COVID supply chain issues, all of you, those of you who are in the business related to construction, you can all relate to that. And so that, it made it a challenge, but everyone pulled together, including the park board that vetted all these issues and made this happen. And so, Hill Wilkinson, you're going to see them today, and then hopefully you'll see them on the next meeting left over the eighth to prove their construction manager risk, generally we've got, something that's called a guaranteed maximum price. And that guaranteed maximum price is $12,835,000, $35,902. It's a yes, that's over the bond defined amount of $12,250,000. But we made it worth and a lot of things happened that really came together in a perfect storm. And in that perfect storm really was completed by the action of the parks board. Because as I mentioned last Monday, they took a look at this, the GMP. They looked at some of the price options that were provided by Hilla Wilkinson and they chose the ones and made recommendations on the ones that would help us achieve this price. And then they also did something quite remarkable and something I think many people will be very grateful. They authorized the contribution of $1.2 million from the Park CIP fund to cover some expenses related to this project. And we'll get into this real quick. And so the proposed guaranteed maximum price, this would be funded mostly by the Certificate of Obligation Series 2023 bonds in the amount of $12,250,000. Now there's some issues. You know, can we use this money for this? Because we were looking for money for some other alternatives, such as water and infrastructure things. But when I reached out to Greg, he made reference to an opinion from the attorney generalourney General Greg Abbott. An opinion that was issued in the year 2006, that noted that cities could be bound to spend the proceeds in accordance with the orders and the resolutions that they advertised when they got the bonds improved. It's something called a notice and a chance. And it's something we not only do for our, when we issue bonds, but also it's something that we're doing for our budget, which is also long tonight's agenda. So the principle, I'm not going to play at attorney here is that, you know, the principle behind that attorney general determination is like public securities. You know, a lot of people don't realize bonds certificate of obligations. They are public securities. You know, a lot of people don't realize bonds, certificate of obligations, they are public securities. And so the proceeds of these certificates, they can be used only for the purposes for which the certificates were authorized and issued. And that's now has been codified. I'm understanding that that was based on some case law that occurred in 1960, but has now, that has since been codified in section two, seven, one, oh five, zero, B, and the Texas local government code. So these are public securities, and like public securities, there are very strict notification requirements. So, and about a year ago, at the September 12th, 2023 City Council Council meeting at which the notice resolution was adopted for the bonds, it was presented by J J air or Finance director and it was for the death issue and set was presented was given to the City Council and the presentation contained that these monies would be or a use for capital improvement program to be financed with the proceeds from these bonds. And these bonds were going to be allocated to certain projects. And so, and then the same, you know, about that same meeting, I think it may have been on the same meeting, not sure, but at the same time last year, we did the annual budget for this current fiscal year, which is actually going to about the expire here in a couple of weeks. And so in that annual budget, information was made available to the public with respect to the budget and with reference to the certificate of obligation. So we had a notice of resolution that was also issued for that budget, that contemplated the issuance of the series 2023 CO. So what were the projects listed in that issuance? Well, it was a public safety project that would be land and hard costs for the construction of a new fire safety facility. And also a public works facility, which is about to go into the bidding phase. And the town center park was the, which is the subject tonight's agenda. So in summary, according to Mr. Schegner, our bond attorney, it says if the city council took action to specify or during its deliberations, made statements or presented information that was in effect incorporated into his actions relating to the authorization of the series 2023 COs that had the effect of specifying the amount of proceeds of the COs that would be used for a particular purpose or to the effect that a certain project would be undertaken or completed in a particular manner. It is likely that that city council it would be bound by such an action. So because these are public certificates, we are bound to use this money for this specific purpose. Okay, let's uh, this is the part now, uh, and I'm getting real close because I know we got a long agenda. This is the follow the money. This is the, the, how do I say this? We kind of like being on a teeter totter. We went back and forth, back and forth. And it started when we had a, between us 60 and 90% completion on the, the design drawings that we started getting some really good numbers that we could compare to the number of the the bonded budget of 12 million 250 and that initial estimate it came in at 14 million dollars and that was the the first pass initial estimate and so you can imagine what a bad week in our head when I got that number. And so we, but we weren't really all that surprised. We were expecting that because of all the inflationary activity that had been occurring in this post-COVID market. And so we had several meetings with Kimmy Horn and Hilar well-custom and we talked about scope deductions and we found them and we ran them by the parks board and they gave us some much needed guidance. We were able to take 1.2 million off of that initial budget and we got and that knocked down the estimate to the 12 million $835,000 not $92, which is the number that we have in the resolution today. So that was still kept us over budget. It was about $600,000 over budget, $580,000, $902 over budget. So I did something kind of dangerous in the J-Ares or a finance director. Did some kind of dangerous. We looked at at the at the line item budget and for all the items financial items we had already expanded on the project. And we noticed that the design fees of $954,900 that was made apart and it was and it was perfectly legal to make it a part of the bond of the bond issuance for design fees. And so we took a look at that because we could we had an opportunity to where some of those design fees could have been pulled out of that bond and put into another account or another funding source such as the part of CIP. And so we explored that and we took a look at J reported that others $954,000 we had spent a $758,650 that that had been paid to date and that left a remainder about 200,000. So that's 758,000 that has been paid to date and that left a remainder about 200,000. So that 758,000 that has been paid to date. We're keeping that in the budget and the reason why we're doing it because it has been paid from the bond issues, which we advertised for. So we want to make sure that if we get audited or anyone can actually look at these numbers, someone from the public could come in and take a look at the numbers for this particular subset of bonds and say, what happened to the seven and 50,000 dollars? So we want to keep it in there and we don't want to take it out and reassign it or do anything what I call acrobatic with those, with those money. So, and that's also for transparency reasons. But keep in mind, we have an unspent remainder of $196,250. So anyway, but what we had to do, we had to add that $758,652 to the project and then that bumped it up to $1.3 million. So that's another bad weekend for me. Now, as a part on your next agenda, and this is where the park's board has really hit it out of the park in my opinion, they are proposing a joint agreement which they recommended for approval that was presented and discussed at the last meeting to where they would designate 1.2 million from the park's CIP to cover overage expenses and these funds Along with some gifted funds that Suzanne has done a great job in helping helping identify They would be used in the following manner to to bring this back to a reasonable Well, we think is a reasonable market guarantee maximum price of the 12 million that is that because of a reasonable market guarantee maximum price of the 12 million. And that is that of that $196,000, $250,000 remaining design fees. We're gonna keep that in the budget, but we're not gonna designate that as a soft cost. We're not gonna designate that as a design fee. We're gonna designate that now as a hard cost and use that for construction. So we add that, and so that helps a little bit for now one point, about 1.2 over budget. And then we are anticipating a $200,000 gift contribution that would be applied for the purpose of paying for the covers to the pickleball courts. And so that's that gets us closer that gets us now over $948,302 over budget. So looking at that over budget figure that you see in the colored font there, this is where the part board really came in to give us a break of the 1.2 million that they would contribute essentially being transferred from the park CIP to the town center park with the $948,302. So this would be applied to reduce the cost and help bring it back to a semblance of its original bonded amount. Now if you subtract that from the 1.2, that 9.48 from the 1.2, there is still, you can call it a contingency phone, it might have about 251,698 dollars of that contribution that has not yet been not yet been targeted for the project and and if we don't use it it will be retained until the project is completed and we issue a CO for the park the new park and then those funds would be transferred back into the park's CIP most probably and the 2026 budget. So we're not going to spend that $251,000 unless it's absolutely necessary. Okay, now that this time, Mayor, I'm opening up some questions like, you know, Katie Dreers is here and I think another member of the folks were here it's okay there's also not a public hearing from Bristol Valley so at this time what I am going to do is I'm going to open this back up in public comment. Okay. That will allow very good. Very good. So at this time we'll open an excellent personal comment and then we'll hand it over to like to take the left turn. You stay your name in your address. Thank you guys for your patience. I didn't know I was too honest. I don't know what the public heard it. Hi, I'm Holly Dassel. I live at 113 Falcon Point Drive and I have some questions regarding the Bristol Valley development. I saw the original or we saw the original client for the original or we saw the original plant for the original developer with 64 homes. So when I saw the, you know, saw this, I was what happened to that. Now we're talking about building 164 homes. So, you know, I want to understand, or 100, why didn't I edit out, but it's 24 and 100 is true. So that's double what I was expecting to see in that property Where you know right in the middle I still believe they're building there because right in the middle. That's it's wetland So, you know, we'll see what happens to that. I'm also concerned that there's nothing in any of this about what you're going to do about McDonald's road. Right now, I don't know if anybody else is here, is here at Belkin Point, but you know, there's like four and five cars in the morning waiting to turn left out Belkin Point. I've lived there 15 years. We never had anything like that. You put on another, well, more than more than $924, more than that, going down MacDonald Road with that dead, dead curve, I don't know if you guys have been there, there it is. I'm really concerned about traffic because there's nothing discussed in here about what's first of all, you can do it about MacDonald Road. That used to be done before they've started doing anything there because there's already I think if you talk about a public safety department, there have been some accidents in that curve because it's a blind curve right of the creek. So I'm concerned about that. Also concerned about in the original discussion with the developers, the original developers, we haven't heard from the new developers, the people on Belcom. They may have talked to our HLA, but nobody's come to my house and it's right behind my house where they're going to start building our house, my husband and I, and I should say that. And behind our house, our property is a little overnaker and it drains down into that property. You know, that's the way it's designed. I'm concerned, what are they going to do back there? Because the original developer said, don't worry, don't worry. They're going to put some drainage at the bottom, because there's a drop-off behind my house. It's about, I don't know, Mark, what would you say? 10 or 15 feet? 15 or 20 feet. 15 or 20 feet behind our house into that property. Because we're kind of on a hill. Are they going to fill that in? The creek is right there. How's that all going to turn? I don't, I haven't heard anything about that. I, but I would like to know more about that original versus what this final is. I want to make sure that the, the developer does a better job of being a good neighbor. Right now, like I said, we have not heard anything from them. And I think it would be good for the city of heat if they're building this new subdivision in an area that is questionable because it does have, it is wetland and it does have natural springs behind my house. They have filled in, they have come back. I don't know that I'd want to house on that property. But, you know, what can I say? I also want to make sure that they, our property, our fence, we design on purpose. We have 10 feet behind our fence is our property. And then they have the kind of the old farm fence or ranch fence there. So I want to make sure that they maintain that because that is our property and that they do some kind of mitigation with, I don't know, you know, they put that plastic up when they're building or something so that they maybe mitigate some of whatever dust and dirt they're going to create because they they hadn't mode, I'm sorry I'm taking too off but I'll talk fast. They hadn't mowed in that property for, I don't know, four years since the other developer ran out of money and they came and stirred it all up. And you should see our yard. We have our yard is ruined from possums. And of course we're paying to have that taken care of. But I believe that they should be some good neighbors. I can't help, you know, I understand I can't help that they're building this. We've had 15 years of this beautiful view. You know, we love living there. And we don't want that to be ruined by this you know group building behind us because they better be building beautiful homes like the rest of you. Not I haven't seen the homes that they planned to build but I'm hoping that they follow our our rules. I'm see I made a list and yeah but the good neighbors and I don't know if developers are here but why I'd love to talk to them if they are I think that's all I think they do this year it's very low and just can't even go back hello all my name is Katie Dyer I live at three camping boards in Heath and I have been on the park board since 2017 and I've been chairman for the last four years and I would just like to encourage council to approve the town center park budget. I'm going to find you tonight. Without a huge tax base in Heath, it's been a challenge to provide amenities that reflect on Heath as a premier lakeside community. And thanks to the Bond and the support at council and the EDC and BC, we are finally ready to actually get some premier amenities in our town. I want to thank Rich Cals for his support on the park board and this project. And we relied on his Edle Eye for details and his leadership. This whole plan started back in 2020 when we wanted to install a permanent stage for the farmers market concert, expect them. And before just plopping a stage down on a field, with no overall plan, we decided to hire a professional park design firms to give us a vision for what we were working towards here. We hired Kim Lee Horne to design a fully renovated park. And it totally blew our minds when we saw their science and all the potential we had in this little gym here. So we give so much credit to the mayor and city council all of you for your support in this project and the bond funding which is really important and also the funds that we have gotten from the EDC and NBC and that generous private donation were major factors in making sure we could keep all the items we wanted in this park and keep them the way we wanted them to be. So I do wanna highlight this park will not take any water from our existing water supplies. It's gonna be watered by a new on-site well and it will feature native Texas drought resistant landscaping. The new well is in a separate utilities budget and is currently in design and it will also be potentially another source of potable water in our city. The well will be drilled and completed alongside the park renovation, but just to make it clear this park renovation, future irrigation, future maintenance will not take any water from our precious existing water supplies. And the finalized plan, we've been through so many iterations. Please be assured we have spent months with Kim Lee Horan and Hill and Wilkinson and the board to really get the little details ironed out. It's careful and considered. We're absolutely thrilled we can get this done within our budget. I encourage you to recruit this plan tonight so we can break around and get going. We do have a schedule to get it done by Christmas 2025, but we have to approve it this week. Or else we're going to miss two Christmas's on the park. So we're ready to go. We just need all the approval and I'm I encourage you to do so. Thank you again for your support and I know this is a part of the citizens of Heath will loving news for generations. Thank you. Thank you, British. This is Sheryl. All right. Good evening. I see members of the council mayor, citizens, Anthony Berth, or Camden, next straight to Katie. So, I'm so scared. Hi, that's good. I dress you today not only as a resident, but as a physician here in Rockville County and as a proud member of the Parks Board. We are here to discuss an exciting opportunity that stands before us and opportunities to significantly enhance the quality of life in our beloved town through the development of a new park back here. Our commitment to aesthetic and functional excellence was at the forefront of the park design. We've emphasized the importance of this aspect and I want to assure you that no stone has been left unturned. We opted for a state of the art stage rather than a less appealing alternative, less expensive option because our community deserves the best. Last week, the park board meticulously reviewed every aspect of the park design in an hours long session. This level of scrutiny ensures that every finish and feature reflects our community's high standards and contributes to the park's overall beauty. In 2021, we conducted a citywide survey to gather input on what features our residents wanted in the park. Based on this feedback, the proposed designs include, as we'll see, ample shade and water for comfort and beauty, enhanced landscaping that beautifies our environment, modern playground equipment that ensures safety and fun for our children's all abilities, space and events and gatherings to foster community spirit, sports facilities, including top notch soccer fields and baseball diamonds, responding to frequent concerns about their current conditions. Furthermore, this project addresses significant infrastructure needs will rectify the extensive drainage issues that have been a long problem with our park. A new beautifully designed stage will be installed. The addition of a festival street will accommodate food trucks with proper electrical hookups, a lighted splash fountain seen down here with rat resistant landscaping with a hint of both utility and beauty. We will introduce covered pickleball courts and expand parking facilities to meet growing demand. This project is meticulously planned, I should be like 80, and ready to elevate our town center to a premier community hub. We urge the council to approve this project tonight, allowing us to break ground and adhere to our ambitious timeline, delaying approval, risks us not being able to celebrate two of the businesses in the park. Thank you for your support and consideration of this transformative project that can unify our community. Your support not only reflects your commitment to our town's growth, but also ensure that he's resident, he remains a vibrant and attractive community for all. Let us make it a lasting impact together starting tonight. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. All right. Right very well. At this time we will close the comment section. Thank you guys for your patience. We will move into our agenda item six dot be. Stereers. Oh, did we want to go ahead and circle back with Emily Drake on the aesthetics? Or are you okay to go ahead and make the motion to approve the budget? In the discussion and action regarding the resolution for the final construction budget for the renovations and the improvements. Okay, we can definitely do that. Okay, we want to see Emily. Okay, well, the one is Emily. Okay, Emily Horn. Yeah. That was pretty impressive. The most impressive part about this is. As Katie mentioned, this project started back in 2020 as part of the EDC project to look at the heat town center overlay. Brent, would remember that. Katie, remember that. A couple other folks here, Rich. I think you're on Park's board at that point. Yes. Are you excited? All were you there? Yes. So there's a few people here that remember that moment in time during COVID when we all looked at each other through a screen trying to make decisions. And at that point, it was a, hey, let's take a look at the park. Let's see how we can add some more shade and some more seating. EDC, I think at the time, had about $250,000. They were willing to build into the park to improve those aspects. As we got through the process of the overlay district, we said, hey, let's do a survey to see what the citizens really want at this chart. I'll touch on these points in the next couple slides. Then we went to out of that survey, we got some feedback and really, hey, this probably needs to be more than what what we think it is. Initially, let's let's see what it could be. So we developed a concept plan from there. We did a refinement in an estimate, cost estimate, probable cost. And then from there, we were approved to develop that that initial plan into a full concept schematic plan that had refined OPC as well. And all during that time foster taking up as we go through this process. Fast forward to last year and in the last year and we got approval of the bond package and to move the design forward into design development today. The where we're sitting now is we've finished with construction drop documents. Phil and Wilkins has done the final gross maximum price. And we are ready to move forward and get some shovels in the ground. So it's been a pretty amazing four years to be a part of this. I'm as excited about this. I think it's everybody that is here and he's. It's to me, it's like the little engine that could go a little part that could just keeps going and going and keeps on giving. This is an example of a survey that was done. of the high points there were citizens wanted to have some kind of water. They wanted a pavilion. They wanted shade. Plague equipment was an important aspect, even though there's play equipment out there, improvement of the play experience. Of course, the event and gathering space and beautification. We did a side analysis early on. Came out here several times, walked the site, noted that some of the threats were the poor drainage that were on site. If you continue to have that aspect, it's going to be harder and harder to get people to come here unless you fix it. So those were kind of some of the things we were looking at when we came out. And then we established the vision that was in alignment with the kind of modern classic style that heath was, we were looking at the lines with the Townsendercart or the Heath Townsendercart overlay district. So these were the bubble plans that we went through, I already kind of mentioned these, but you'll see it might be a little hard to read. Everything in black on these lists continued forward from list to list. And you see the list just gets longer. Blue are elements that have been added to the list as we went through and gray are the things that have dropped off the list as we went through. There is not a lot of gray so we have done our best to keep and the interesting to thing is as we were going through this kind of final rendition of the plan, we went back and looked at a couple of the older layouts and realized that it was really a combination of a couple of bubble plans that we had done early on with what we have come up with. And it really hits all of the targets for citizens really. So fast forward, try to get through this quickly. There's a lot of detail in here, but as I noted, a lot of what we looked at, and a good portion of this budget relates to improving the infrastructure on-site. That includes electrical. Right now, those electric transformers sitting in the middle of the park, we're going to move them away from the play area, put them in an enclosure that is secure, and increase the amount of electricity that we have out there for events so that we're able to supply what we need for all of those Christmas lights that come up during Christmas time. This on the top right is the drainage area map and how we're modifying it to meet some of the needs, recognizing that there are two outfalls on this corner, and then on the opposite corner of the park here, that have some constraints with them, that we've gone through multiple iterations to try to get to solving downstream impacts in those areas. Again, this is a construction drawing plan. This is our cover sheet basically that tells us we're going to enlarge everything. And then these are the items that we've hit from that survey, water, shade the front and center of the project and we've turned it into more of a showcase pond where we'll have a floating fountain will engage in some of the pond alike plant material will have an overlook we have a heat sign down here on number one. And looking at, you know, some of the things we looked at when we were looking at value engineering this is we had, you know, like standard stone masonry and then how can we get that same look and feel but with a different product that still functions actually even better than a stone masonry product would. This is still a stone but it's a different type of wall structure to sit within the detention pond area so it reduces cost. This pond initially was conceptualized to irrigate the park and drilling a well for it and we initially had costs from back in 2021 of 1.5 million, which was comparable to what he golf and yacht had done when they drilled. But as we went four years in, we come out the end of that and it's now about $1,000 in foot to drill about 3rd, 500 feet down to the ground. So do the math. That's about $3.5 million. So we looked strategically at how could we use this water, knowing that Keith has the constraint in their water supply, and have now moved forward with taking that well to a potable water source. So when the water comes out of the ground, a portion of it will be fed into this pond to pull off and irrigate, and then it splits as it comes out of the ground. So then your potable water goes off to a supply and we're using some of the groundwater to irrigate the park. And then we're using native plant material and the use of how we're dealing with detention on site also allows us to refill that aquifer before it comes out of the site as well. So we'll have part of the funness of this is we're going to have some environmental and educational signage about these different elements and how the park contributes to the city and how it contributes back to its natural environment as well. Other things that came up early on were the field, the baseball field, which is offsite over here, but drainage issues, basically, is what I'm getting at for Amy Parks Elementary right here, floods, and then the field itself floods. So we're going to bring everything up so that that does not flood in the future. And we're also going to, one of the things that actually we noted in one of our initial site visits was that the fence at Amy Parks was falling, the chain link had come off of the posts and it's falling over. And so one of the things was, hey, let's improve that fence. And so we're providing a similar defense fence to what you already have in the park, the little four foot fence, but taking that up to the six foot regulation along the Amy Park side. Parking spaces. We need more parking spaces for these big events in the park. So we've created a parking lot on this south side here, where everybody kind of parks already for your events that you have. And then Festival Street, which is that moment where the food trucks will park. We've really looked at, what is the materiality of that that fits the vision for Heath, this kind of modern, but very traditional materials. So it's like a black kind of modern but very traditional materials. So it's like a black kind of brick versus something that's just a stand concrete. And we felt very strong with Park's board that that materiality needed to stay in place. One thing that's easy to cut sometimes in these budgets is is just taking all that down to concrete, but really wanted to hit on the fact that this is a really special place for heath and contain or keep that materiality in place. And here's more of the festival street. And then the other item that you'll see on these boards out front is the fountain in the middle of the spiral, which is the water element that is pulled out from the survey so that this creates an element that will be lit up at night, but in the daytime, you know, the lights can be turned off, but the fountain is going, so it creates this area for kids to splash in and play in, but it also creates this destination within the park. And this is on center with the amphitheater, well amphitheater, but the stage is actually directly diagonal from this component. I cannot draw this cursor very well. And then you see the pickleball courts. When we first started this, we had two pickleball courts. $250,000 got a two BIPABALL courts and about half of the parking that we have on the plan right now. So it's pretty amazing to see where this park is gone from there. And we've got six courts shaded in our current design, GMP as well. The Here's a better picture. There's that spiral with the fountain. And you've got the amphitheater stage down in this location. You've got a berm here. Kids can sit on and slide on. You've got more planting on this side that enhances that experience. And then the shade structure or the performance rebellion that was talked about earlier, really creating this unique space for Keith that becomes the gathering and the moment for all of the festivals to take place and front up. The I mentioned screening of the electric transformers and other utilities that would happen in this space off to the side away from those components. And then from a lighting standpoint, you know, we're adding more light for safety within the park when you have nighttime events of that we're keeping all of those in place where we can well all of them are staying and then we're we're able to add like I said some festoon lighting and some other kind of special lighting in different spaces within the park the playground this is a piece that we are we're keeping the original playground structure in place because it has sentimental value to it, right? And it's sacred to us, but we're going to grow around it. We're going to take that initial concept of the butterfly and really play off of that in the playground. And so we've got these butterfly stage structures. We have an accessibility wheelchair swing. We have little caterpillar climbing structures and many of these structures down here in the older age area of the park are these more natural play elements. So really, and this will be a good place to have some environmental signage as well, educational signage to talk about the evolution of the butterfly and things like that. Baseball, I already talked about how that was challenging. We've raised all of this up right now. There's a big water issue here on the site because all the flow comes off of this property, hits here, and then floods into the field and has nowhere to go. So we're actually taking all this down and raising it all up. And I will say we're doing it. It sounds like a lot of dirt that we're bringing to the site, but we're scraping dirt from the lower side of the site and bringing it up. So as much as we can, we have equalized the site to reduce that earthwork number. And then one of the last slides here talks about the effects on the downstream on this southernmost corner here where we have a pre, there's many technical things here happening, but we have a pre-flood plane that actually goes into the edge of this property. The corridor there is a very incised, steep narrow channel. And what we're doing, so unless we want to go to FEMA and get some approvals and might take years in the making, we're recognizing and leading the floodplain in place and basically building a side channel where most of the flood from most of the water from onsite is going to follow this channel in a series of shallow check dams. It's not going to hold water. It'll fill and then go over the dam, fill and go over the dam. So it slows down the velocity of this water by almost 68 percent before it even hits that culvert and goes under the street. So it's going to improve the downstream area of these houses down here just by slowing down the water and letting it percolate into the ground water component before it even gets to that. And here's an example on the top of what we were talking about with environmental signage trying to educate folks and heath on what this park does for the community and for the native environment as well. And then the next two pages are the Hill and Wilkins bids. Do we want to go through those? We have folks from our former and Jason and the crew from Hill and Wilbets and our Hill to respond to any questions that you may have. And then I think the last slide is going to be just something on the schedule. And that is we will be officially closing the park on the 27th. Now we do have one event that has been reserved for the 29th at the Bavillion. And that will be obviously that will still take place. And then as I mentioned earlier, the CMA air contract, it's been through two attorney reviews that's not going through a third one. We'll have that thing buttoned up for you. That will come before you on October the 8th and it will reflect the guaranteed maximum price that we're asking you to approve tonight, about 12 million, $835,902. And then after which Hill Wilkinson, they will be mobilizing on this site on the 14th of October, pending final contract execution. And also on the same day, they're about, they will also be putting up the temporary fencing, the erosion control will start that same week. Also, one point now is that we've, Yilla Wilkinson did a really good job in dealing with Amy Sparks, who is the principal of Amy Parks Elementary School. I just love that name, great name for a principal. And they have been, and also have Brian as well, Brian Creed has been working with her as well. We're making sure that they are gonna be updated on a weekly basis. And then we're also gonna be sending out notice to a joining property owners. Most of the property owners that face FM740South, that, you know, I think it's going to come up and things are going to change. And then we will get them connected to the, to the job foreman on the, on the property, with the little Wilgons, and there's any, but there's any issue. And then myself and Brian will be available. There's any issue with the adjoining property owners during the construction period. So it's been a laborer love for everybody. I'll be glad to answer any questions and or help you make a motion if you're ready. Very good. Thank you very much. Okay, at this time, Councillor, do you have any questions for staff. Councilman Dozen. Sure. Kevin does well, well, first conformals Katie, Dr. Bird, um, development team. In a word, wow. This is absolutely befitting of this community. And I'm so glad with the work that you all did that you didn't cut in, take so much out of it, that it still didn't meet those requirements. And you guys were creative, I think, in the financial solutions that you've kind of brought to bear, and just made this really what looks like it's gonna be a showcase. So really a terrific, terrific job. I only have just a couple of questions, Kevin. First of all, our ongoing maintenance costs, a part of this is that in our regular operational budget because I know that that's been discussed and could be a challenge kind of on a forward planning basis. It will, if not in this current budget, that we're that you'll be seeing today but on the next one it will be. Gotcha. In which I think the plan is to bring in a work super intended print. And then Brian and I have been talking about bringing in maybe one or two, fill people to get priority to the grounds and ground maintenance, because which, and the thing that's going to help us here is that we have drought resistant plants, so we don't have to do a lot of pruning and stuff there. But then we'll, and so but those issues that will be identified at the next budget. So we're thinking about the parks we've been in, probably two more field ops people. Brian's there trying to hide from us. You want to expand on what I just told him? Did you hear what I just said? I have to loop it up in. That part made it into what? Yeah, about the next year's budget. Bring it up. You said you're going to cut the grass and everything's good after that. It's good to be great at economy and I'm just going to take care of it. Now, I haven't had anything wrong with this. Just got what we had to do to go to this high-volt soil. And if you do work that's still going to be a little bit easier like that. So we're looking at what it's going to take from a maintenance standpoint to stay on top of that. So we're going to budget in probably a contract or the health of that. We're probably going to go up in the midlife, they get very competitive in the climate, which is not quite the same as that. Have all those things in and out. And then big and superintendents and things like that which be for daily upkeep in the park, and especially when we had some sort of little saves. So there's gonna be people here a lot of hope. And scheduling of a use that's a little bit in some of that. It's gonna be the whole time job. So there'll be a lot more scheduling done in the park for the park. Gotcha. So there will be a lot more casualing done as a part of the part. Gotcha. Okay. Thanks for that. Next question to Prince Point, there wasn't a lot of grace. So I'm actually happy that it's maintained sort of the awesome appeal that you all ended up with. What was it called the middle of the way? I didn't say that it wasn't for any of us. It was just an observation. So what doesn't it include and could the 251K that might be left over go against some of the things that weren't actually decided upon? We're going gonna jump up. I was just living in this previous plan maybe. So I was trying to get to. Sort of see how I think of this. So for those that work here, back in archival, last presented our design concept, the area in green on that top was the kids splash them. We had about six to eight bubblers that were within like a very natural rental. That you can see right in front here, some boulders and things like that. That was about a half a million dollar item. It was, these items I'm gonna tell you about can be phased back in. Should you find a donor that wants to donate a half a million dollars more to the project or you get into it and maybe it's more like, you treat this kind of like an amusement park where they face stuff every three to four years to make it more exciting the next time you go. So that was a big ticket item that we removed. We kept the spiral fountain at the beehives of the request starting the public space in that zone. And we were putting so much into the playground itself, and really felt like, I'm trying to go over to the spiral of mine, and they can come back in that kind of thing. So that was one big item that we kept. One other thing, General, can you grab that other board? Right next to it to the first one. This is a small item I can't even, it was so long ago that we took it out, I can't remember what the price was at the time, but this structure here was more of a swing kind of for twings to kind of hang out on. I had a very unique swing thing. Again, it's location where it was located was just to the side north of the People Hall Courts, maybe I could put it up. It was located up here. It's something that again can easily be put back in a way or two. We went I will. We still have the hammocks and we still have the. Long chairs. Actually for the Adurongat chairs, sorry, I'm missing my language. The Adurongat chairs, we had specified one, a very well-known, very high-end vendor, but we're able to find something that, same quality, looks a lot the same, but it's bad price. Right. So those kinds of things, But those are the two really big ticket items. I think the only other one that I could say two more that I can think of. One is there was a small enhanced entry of the Amy Parks gate. We took that out and then the other one was there was an an overlooked structure at the pond. That was right here. That we've replaced with some victories. So you still have the shade. You still have the, there's like a little burn on you can sit on some little side walls that are still there. We just took the structure out of that. Got it. Okay. Okay. I get the sidewalk out. That's kind of a minor thing. I mean, I looked at like really minor things at well. There's just little loose sidewalk here. That you removed. Because you already have access here and you've got access up here, right down here. So those are the things we looked at that we're like easy things off the top. So that's a very, very helpful. Well, clearly there's nothing like this and all of the old county probably even the surrounding counties, this is just an absolute wow. You guys just did a terrific job. My last question, Suzanne, I guess goes to you. And that is how are we going to socialize this magnificent plan? are closing, well, we are practicing our big flows. So we just the final official act and we already have Katie on my book to do a video, so we're saying, then yeah, basically we did it, yeah. I like the assumption, I like the assumption close, that was, that was good. So in short, the Korean web social media. Gotcha. But we thought we didn't really wanna do so much detail because we've been doing that for two, three years and then we're pulling it back. So we're waiting for this, like we'll do a fact word of opinion where can you get set up and I'll see the notes that it's a pro and we'll do I will and we'll roll out for that. And then we'll do our own money that day. So like I read in that I hope you have that update that we can kind of share. Perfect. Thank you and thank you all I have no further questions. Thank you. I'm gonna stand up here and get some stuff. Yeah. All right. If you have any questions. Yeah I had, I had several of them I can't take. I had several most kind answer. I guess one maybe just a difference of opinion thing, but it's one of those ones you see it you have a hard time not seeing it. And that's the 5% fee on bonds and insurance and contingency that works out to be about $19,000. I'm just not comfortable giving 5% profit on a bond or insurance when it really, in my opinion, should be a pass through. And contingency feeds. That's, and response I got that that's industry standard. So if I'm the only one who doesn't understand that's an industry standard, then I'm willing to say, well, okay, I've been educating. But I would like to see a few more heads not first to say yes, I seem to see stand. Well, this would be the third of the CMR I've done, and it is typically even on non-CMR applications and non-CMR projects, it was used. We use it in middle ocean. I do know in the city, Grand Prairie, the mountain was different We use it in middle ocean. I do know in the city, Grand Prairie. The mountain was different because that was a bigger project at the Appetz Park. But it is and it's part of the incentive. Because one thing I probably haven't communicated clearly to you. Is that this maximum year-to-year price. If they go over that by one penny or $100 or $10,000 and eat that. Thanks for turning construction manager. We lost this not an increase in scope. Right. Yeah. Long time I started, or, yeah. I've done about $20 million of contracting. So, yeah. Right. Yeah. On the stuff you do and then, but on the part stuff and then the building stuff, it's, it's, it's these sudden nuances. I did all the MRO contract and at the Raytheon Facility in Greenville, the airport. Oh, cool, cool. Yeah, remember that. It's, anyway. So that's all, that's all I'll bow to. If everyone agrees, pay rich, it's, give it up, it's 5%. It's, yeah. That's it. it's 5% should be there. Then, then. One on Schum's side, and go and walk in some wood. Act. That's probably contingency 100% of that. Yes. With these, with you. Yeah, and your responses were at least Frank, I've been asking this question for like two years since I've done Park Board, at least it did get response at times. I appreciate it. Very well. Any further questions? No. Okay. Councilman Weaver. No questions. Just again, I think the sentiment up here is, you know, thank you. Thank you for your hard work. As Anthony pointed out, we're ready to start this tonight, slash four years ago. So, you know, I think, I think we're all pleased to see the attention to detail, the attention to the budget, the work, and effort it took to get creative and make the numbers work. So, no questions, just thank you. Thank you, Councilman Councilor Norman. Yes, I would like to make a comment and a suggestion. Great job for what everybody's done on this for a very long time. I was not part of any of this. This is kind of the cards that I've been dealt here, but it's beautiful and I commend everybody for working so hard on it. What I am extremely concerned about any time we make a decision is what is the ongoing cost and what is the public safety concerns that we have here and and so I would just say in the public and the To be fully transparent with Cicc Council and staff and everybody's done a great job on being transparent I feel like it's extremely important to be transparent on Was there a traffic study done? What kind of people is this part going to attract? Has anybody conversed with Chief Siri on this? So, because this thing is, ball is moving and it's going forward. So just down the road concerns of let's address it now, let's not build this thing and then have a problem because as far as I know right now, budgets have not been done on what is it going to cost to maintain this? And Councilman Beaman said on August 24th of 2021, he stressed this to the council. Councilman Beaman said on August 24th of 2021, he stressed this to the council. What is the ongoing cost of this? And ever since then, I have not heard. So I encourage the staff to work on this and inform the public is what is it going to cost to maintain this? I wish it had been done in the past. It was not. Here we are. Congratulations. It's beautiful. Thank you. Thank you, Councilman Morbeng. So staff, the questions being traffic study, safety concerns, and then maintenance budget. So if we can look at that in a future date, thank you. Councilman Rufo. Sure. Two quick questions. First, thank you. You know, it's been a great plan for a long time. Love the way it's all come together. Thank you for the hard work. I love creativity. And so thank you for the creativity and the time that went into as we needed to flex and move and and figured us all out. You know, it's it's really easy just to chop things out. Thank you for not just doing that but being creative and spending the time it took to really get it right. So thank you so much. So two questions. One is when when people see bulldozers out there, they're going to get a little concern that we're going to build something on that park. Are we going to put a big sign out there that says here's the park that's going to be built? Here's the layout it's going to have. Just some things for, so when people see it, they say, well, this is going to be a great park, not woe, are they building an apartment? Yes, yeah, absolutely. And I promise we won't put a bucket sign up there either. Thank you. Yes. Right, that's it. Yeah, that's us. We're reaching out to the property owners as well. But no, it's good to just advertise the future and minute events coming. That's a very good one. OK, and second question is along, and Ryan, what you were saying. My dad is a retired police officer. And he always tells me there's a big difference in clientele of people in the day and at night in the park. And to the point where he said they would actually shoot out the traffic lights at night, the park lights to put themselves on par with the people who are in the park at night. That was a not he that was a totally different city. But the point is valid though. What are do we have security cameras that we're putting in this? Are we putting any kind of blue lit, you know, buttons someone can push if they have a concern? Like are we doing some different things to for public safety in the park? We've got some cameras and chiefs here and I talked about this. I think earlier in the week to where he has found some money to get some. And maybe upgrade them on the update among those specifics, but. He's got some money that we're going to encounter from this budget to put into the park. And then also the something that we're reporting to the school system and not only within these parks, I like that name, but with wheel saline, the district office is the gate to the school and then there's another gate that leads into the school property will be attached to our work out of system. And that walk will be activated not only by the public safety folks, but someone from the district will have an access, a wireless access to it as well. So there is an emergency, then it can go a lot down very quick, and then we'll have objects to see what's going on. So. And we left all the lighting in. We were talking about heading lighting. We were like, all the lighting in, their safety, building, that company. Yeah, I mean, to the client, I'm worried about doesn't worry about park hours. All right. Thank you. Thank you. Very good. Thank you. Thank you. There have been a lot of negative comments about the money that we allocated when we voted for this park. And it has been primarily. Gees arenas like me who don't have kids. And I have to commend you guys for making this a whole community spot. It is not just to take your four-year-old to get on the splash pad. This is the vendor trucks, this is community, the stage. I'm blown away with how you've encompassed everybody here. And even an old person like me, I have four grandchildren. My little grandson loves the Christmas thing here. He comes from Dallas and the next morning he said, I'm going to go tonight. No honey, it's one night. So, but when Katie would you make this video, I am imploring you to stress the water because that has been, you know, we're catching a lot of slack that we need to stop all building and state law doesn't allow that because you're not guaranteed one drop of water for your yard is just for your home. And so please stress that because that's one of the reasons people have complained. Now Ryan stepped on my profession by talking about safety and I'm really glad you did. Another thing is I came up here today to see Danny. Oh my God, all the cars trying to get into this school. And then you put land-loving equipment and guys and hard hats, chief Syria, I know that's a state road up there, but it looks like it's ticket-writing time. And I don't want to make any mom mad when she picks up a kid, but I see a danger on that. That will do the traffic study for later, but I'm talking about in the interim. So I don't know if you're going to have somebody sitting out there. It's going to be, it's going to be. That upsets me. I think it's a good thing about the blue lights. Because Terry Park, chief knows that. It's a nice park. We have a lot of problem because Terry Park, chief knows that. It's a nice park. We have a lot of problem in Terry Park because it has grown an element of people who have guns that shouldn't legally have guns. And I take care of guns for the DA's office and we seize a lot of guns. So it's very, that's very scary. And just because our officers are here, I don't think they can stop and build some things to run over there. So, yeah, it's going to be a financial thing. But I'm just, I can't thank you all. I just can't. This is very good. And I worked on the overlay stuff with you eight years ago. This is a gem. Very good. Thank you, Councilman. I echo that. So many sentiments. Thank you to Kimlee Horn. Thank you to Helen Wilkinson. I thank you to the tireless hours that that park board is put in. I thank you to our passengers on with the council that you guys have all worked diligently on this at this time. The chair will open the floor for a motion. Make a motion that we approve. We have a motion on the floor to approve the final construction budget for renovations and improvements of towns in our part. Go ahead. Second. All right, we have a second by Councilman called well to the motion carries all those of them ever say aye. Aye. Those opposed. It passes unanimously. I did want to reiterate how much they put up with me, for years in design. You can imagine what condolences they deserve. And they were very patient and they did a great. Very good. Thank you. Moving they were very patient and they did a great. Very good. Thank you. Moving into agenda item six. This is a discussion actually regarding the resolution number two for zero nine to four C of the city council of the city of heat authorizing the 1.2 million contributions from the park capital improvement plan to support the completion of the town center park projects and approving the execution of the project agreement with the parts. I believe in your errors. Good evening, Mary council. That depends on the. This is the town center park. Project contribution resolution. This item was approved of $1.2 million contribution from the park. The object of the protest in the park. And the operas that are probably agreement with the park board. The current funding for Townsend Park, this goes air-led, which will become the certificate of obligation of the 2023 series, this $2.25 million, the regional contribution and the park's board is one, contributing to this project is $1.2 million. The money that's, that's a collection of the Park parks. The IP fund is fully funded by the HNBC and HTC such are e-bombs will benefit corporation and keep economic development corporation. They can contribute 25% of their sales equity lose until the parts of the up you fund or the parts board to decide on different parks projects to tackle the immediate. This covers additional cost related to the office services construction and landscaping of the project and instruments. This is from the total budget of the project, funding for the project, the 13.4 or 5 million. There would be no additional burden when there's a contribution on the city's tax rate. And this contribution will help with the cost and ensure project completion. And the execution of this project agreement. Well, this project agreement is just an execution of the. The contribution between the parts of the board and the Parks Award and the City Council. There's no adversely going back from this private agreement. The recommendation is to approve the $1.2 million contribution and authorize the mayor to execute the project agreement with the Parks Award to ensure it's the sensual completion of Council in the park. The idea of any questions. All right. At this time, Council, do you have any questions for staff? I'll never want to vote. Quick question. Jay, on one of the slides you had that it was the $1.2 million came from CIP, Park CIP. But then you, you mentioned, yeah, that one right there, fully funded by HNBC and HEDDC. So is this the funds that EDC and BC is giving towards the park, they go into a park CIP and then they get dispersed from there? Yes, those are the parts board. They contribute to the parks, the IP find for the parks board to decide on which projects they want to pack up out of that fund. Gotcha. Yeah. And this is a recurring year over year, the percent contribution. Is it a set amount per year or a set percentage? Yes, percentage. So it goes into a Park CIP and then they can choose how to allocate it. Yes, sir. Okay. So in future years, the funding that we're getting in this to offset our, our bonds that we're taking out, really are they committed for each year, or we have to recommit each year? This is just for the project, as far as the contribution that the HMBC is making, that's an inseparable agreement. Or an inseparable. Yes sir. Okay. This $470,000 is not all allowed to be available. Okay. $470,000, $925,000, I'm sorry, that's where I was getting, I didn't realize it was bull. You're really keep seeing. And don't eat another four million or so. The heart as well. Fantastic. All right. No more questions. Thank you for Very good question. All right. Very good. Any other questions? What yeah, appreciate your your responses. They're very good and accurate and what I think this kind of tells you the level of air in my opinion that That we folks are having in our financing and transparency, you know, I think it's very commendable. You think this was millions, you know, so, Greg, John. Very good. Any other comments, questions? Thank you, Mr. Heirs. This time the chairman will open the floor to entertain a motion regarding the resolution number 240924 seat. Motion to approve the resolution. Councilman Dawson. Second. The motion to approve. Let's wait until we get clarity on the motion. Oh okay. So motion to approve resolution number 240924C. And that is to authorize 1.2 million contribution from the park capital improvement plan to support the completion of the Townsend Park project and approving the execution of that by the mayor. Is that correct? Very well. Now do you have a second? I still say good. Yeah, no I get it. That's fine. That's fine. All right. Councilman Krauss, thank you. The motion moves. All of those in favor say aye. Aye. Those opposed? All right. It passes unanimously. Thank you, staff. Before we go into public hearing and the tax portion of this meeting tonight, due to some of those public comments from the last meeting. One thing I would like to ask, can I show hands, maybe you're here for the Brazil Valley that would like to see this next on the agenda. Okay. And what about the agenda item six dot in that is the public hearing on the 10 acre or or no it's a 12-acre track for 10 residential lots. Anybody? Okay. All right very well. Well we're going to do now is we're we're going to we're going to switch us up Mr. Terri's if you be patient with us. So we're going to go to 6. H or six dot G. Thank you. Yeah, we're you're very well trying to get better. One, one meeting at a time. Okay. So case number F P 2024 is your eight. Consider an act on a facility's agreement between the city of heat and the estates of Bristol Valley LLC concerning the development of the final plaque of the estates of Bristol Valley addition, Mr. Gonzalez. Thank you mayor, members of the council. So the facility agreements you have before you, first of all, I did put some copies on your desk and further ahead some minor changes to the development agreement that they're highlighted. Essentially, it's just calling out the number of lots on each development agreement as we go through both of them. In this case, we're gonna do the first one. And they'll show 24 lots up of that. And also, there's a highlighted area concerning the lock lock drainage, where we'll show that the applicant had completed the requirement for that and turned in some drainage, let's just show for that for the lock lock drainage. So those items are highlighted for you to, as you consider this. And once again, now the facilities agreement, it is a requirement based on the city federal to enter into the agreement with the developer for the development of their subdivision. This helps to govern what's happening with their subdivision. And essentially what we're looking at is to make sure that this just ensures that the facilities for the public improvements will be complete in this. And those are your road assessments, your road, your water, your sewer, parks, your trails systems, and so forth. And so let me just touch on some of those for you as far as the roadway. The McDonald is a part of the CIP. It was part of the CIP program. That was a step which established impact fees for your roadway, impact fees for the extension of that. Several projects involved in that. McDonald was a part of that and that was part of the extension from Rabbit Ridge to Steven's Road. So that's included in the agreement and essentially what the agreement is indicating that since this is part of the CIP, that's going to be paid for through impact fees. And so that will be also based on funding, where that will be able to be come forward to start construction on that. The water line in the agreement, they're required to put in the development of the requirement of 12-inch water line. This as part of a part of an impact, which is part of the impact, the study for the wastewater and sewer and water included several projects. This was one of those that required the development in the 12-inch, but it also upsides the lines in order to provide or service for that area. And the dollar right of way is required to up that size to an 18 inch line. So that's where the six is going to participate with that. Where the six inches from pro-vincs to six inches. And so that's included in the agreement. The sanitary sewer obviously will be run that's part of facilities will make sure that's extended to that Parks this just establishes the fee and move of land as well as any park or building these those are at $2,540 on 13 cents per dwelling unit that dwelling unit that's for this development and this particular one is 24 lots and so that's outlined in our other report. The trails as well too. And also once again the lots of drainage, the developers requested that they have a lot of drainage. Once again, they've included that on their final platelets and exhibit that's showed and exhibit B of the agreement where you see the 15 foot drainage units that are that bisect each lock. And so those easements are in place for that. With that, the agreement is discretionary to the City Council. We did send this to legal for their reviewed this as well as just the minor changes we have. I just submit those over to her as well for review. Once you have those are minor changes and with that I'm going to build that interim question that you may have. All right, very good. Thank you, Mr. Nathos. Before we begin, with getting other questions. Could you clarify the facts? So, these are these pre-existing one-plates from 2004, one is from 2018. Maybe you can give Walker students this real quick. Yes, sir. So in 2004, a PD was approved. And that was for the late wood Meadows edition. And what that included was the, what you, I'm sorry, that was for the Falcon Point development. And what that includes, that'll be on your next item for that. the last one. The last one. The last one. The last one. The last one. The last one. The last one. The last one. The last one. The last one. The last one. The last one. The last one. The last one. The last one. The last one. The last one. The last one. The last one. The last one. The last one. portion of that development allows for your half acre box from the PD. Now the the other PD that was approved was in 2019 and that's for what you have in front of you now which will include the Bristol Valley. I think about 124 acre portion for the crystal for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the Pension for the P from the Bristol Valley, Bristol Valley Phase 1. The states of Bristol Valley is 24 lots. Bristol Valley Phase 1 is 51 lots. It total 75 lots, essentially, for that portion of what was known as Lakewood Metins. Very good, thanks for that, Claire. Yes. So these are dating back to 2004, 2019. On the McDonald road improvements, so what I'm hearing is that they're committing to paying the impact fees, right? And that it is in the Keith Roadways Throne Fair Plan is that the 2018 thoroughfare plan. I guess that's correct. Okay. And that is an improvement plan that is planned to take it to Stevens road. Right. That's from rabbit ridge all the way down to Stevens. Sishing from pocket to in rabbit ridge, getting to Stevie Road. That goes down to the thoroughfare plan. Oh, yes. That's not where. Very well. At this time, Council, do we have any questions, Councilman Colwell, as it pertains specifically to the facilities agreement? Councilman Rufo, any questions? Yeah, I know this has come forward before and we looked at it. Just it was this was basically two different things that were my recollection was they were brought back to they were brought together. I think developer bought the second piece of land or something like that and brought them together now when I know we're still on the first agenda item, but when I look at the second one, it shows, shows the preliminary with both, with both in there, right? Like when I look at at this diagram here, I'm correct and this is the first piece we're looking at up here. Correct. And we're looking at the second one. Why are we looking at these separately? There are two separate applications. We have the developer here. He was representing both, but we have two separate applicants on this essentially. So didn't they come in the last time they came before the council, didn't they come in together? Am I incorrect? And I'm just trying to remember back. It's been a while. Can you take that? It's a zero. Yes, it is. Can you take that lecture, please? Yeah. Yeah, my apologies. I don't know the history of that. No, that's good. Sure. Appreciate all your responses. fire hose learning as much as you can about the history of this one. We did discuss the Lakewood Meadows preliminary plant when we talked about the Falcon Point phase three preliminary plant, but we did not do any sort of approval related to Lakewood Meadows because it had already been fully approved. If we discussed it at that time because it was providing a point of access and the property was being purchased, it was contemplating, was being contemplated for purchase by an owner that would own the existing liquid metals, PD and preliminary plot property, as well as the token point based three preliminary flat. And so yes, we talked about those two together and we presented you back at that time how the Lakewood Meadows preliminary flat provide connectivity to the Falcon Point phase three preliminary flat. Okay. But we did not have to ask you for any approval on the Lakewood Meadows portion because it had already been approved back in 2019. Because it had been approved in 2019. So, so this. So the preliminary plat Lakewood Meadows is approved. Yes. Yes, there was a planned development application and a preliminary plan that were both on the same agenda back in 2019. Mm-hmm. And they were... And so they were approved together. Yes, it's one... That's one drawing. It's just got a large floodplain area that goes through the center. Right. Now they're final plotting them separate. So the top part is what what David's talking to you about now, which is being called the Estates of Bristol Valley. And then the second flat on the agenda tonight will be Bristol Valley Phase One, which is the part below the floodplain area. Okay. And that's the side that the previous previously approved PD brings in half acre lots. No, no, no, no. This, this portion that, that's all one acre. Everything that was previously included in the Lake Widmetos flat, which is that image on your screen. Yeah. It was all one acre. Okay. The half acre lots are going to come in to play on the Falcon Point Phase 3. I see. So tonight we're not just talking about these two pieces. We're talking about another piece as well. Yeah, just a tiny little sliver of Thachem Point Phase 3 preliminary platt. With a lot of house suckers. Yes. Okay. All right. Let's watch on it. A lot of houses. No. Well, Yes, we have 51 on the top portion top portion, you can get looking at now, we do have 52 on that lower portion. I thought this is what we'll be shown on the final part. We take a look at the next item on the agenda. It's going to have about 103 lots. Half of them are in this liquid meadows preliminary flat on your screen. Yeah. The other half are over in the Falcon Point case three. Okay. And so you're saying there's 24 up in here. Correct. And there's 50 some down here. And then down here there's another 50 some. Yeah. Right. Okay. Okay. All right. I just appreciate it. As you. Thank you for that clarity. Councilman Rutbo, I know that was a all good series of questions. Council, do we have any further questions that pertains to the facilities agreement? No, I do want to make sure that the residents that are here are fully understanding, but I'll hold my clarification until we get past this facility's agreement. Agenda item when we actually talk about the plating and hopefully the developer can help clarify how these two different sequenced developments are getting kind of lushed together but be assured that nothing we approved in 2019 is getting altered. Unfortunately, we can't ask any good questions. It's not a public hearing. I'll apologize. However, probably a really great question. And I would encourage the developer to answer any per questions. Private. Okay. All right. I'm glad I noticed in here. It also crowds hold on one sec. Okay. All right. I'm going to listen here. It also. The crowds hold on one sec. Please. Council member. So do you have any other questions? Okay. Councilman Dodson. No, I'll reserve any other questions. Go all concession. All right. Councilman Kraus. Yeah. Notice that this also says there's no additional tree mitigation required in developer property. Is that to say that they comply with the tree mitigation? Yes, that's correct. In the in the states of Bristol Valley, they're they're planting 96 trees and a few others in open space. And so with those plantings, they're meeting the mitigation on that. they're removing. Yes, they did. A full truck mitigation plan. Yes, yes, sir. They did. Thank you. Very good. Councilor Krauss. That's it. Any other questions? Yeah. I had to rest my answer by this fine man all day. It's been. It's been. So if there are others. If there are no further questions, the chair will open the floor for a motion on case number FP202408. This is the action on the facilities agreement between the city and the Assets of Bristol, We'll make a motion to approve. We have a motion to approve by Councilman DeNever. Second. Second by Councilman Dodson. So the motion moves. All of those in favor say aye. Aye. Those opposed. Pass unanimously. And again, that that's a facilities agreement as it pertains to pre-existing plas. So at this time, we will move into case number FP20408. This is considered an act on a final plap. The Estates of Bristol Valley edition containing 24 single family lots and two common areas being a 42-acre track, land and zone PVSF, land development district, or single family residential lots. Ordinance number 19, 11008A, generally located west of McDonald Road in South Feltwood Boyn Rock, and being described as a 0-2 Antonio Rodriguez survey track number 1102 and 5101 city Heath Rockwell County Texas Rockwell at number 12918 and 13004 street dollars. Thank you Mayor and we can take a look at this is the location map and just give you an idea. This is the sure you're familiar with this McDonald Road here. This is the subject property we're referring to for the estates of Bristol Valley. Once again, 24 single family lots associated with this property will be accessed off of Bristol Valley's arrive, which would be the single drive that you see that's going down and and cold as sacking on this particular property. This was zone as a plant development district. And with an underlying zoning of SF 43, which means other one acre lots and they'll and what that means as well as it will meet our compliance. And you'll see later on here, but the compliance matrix for this particular lot. Once again, here's the layout for the preliminary client. They will have a trail we talked about with the facility's agreement that will be located along the McDollard road here. They do have open space as well to open spaces for this particular property. And the floodplain that you see here is going to be associated with, I mean, this portion right here is going to be associated with the Bristol Valley the state's based one. It's the one we'll look at next. We're looking at this. Once again, we talked about access. We talked about the tree skate plan on the radio and to go over that again if you like. Once again they're going to connect their sewer, the water as well. And once again this talks about the upsizing of the line that we discussed for what the city is going to be for associating with the six inches of drainage. One thing I want to point out, grading and drainage, now this will be reviewed at the time of building permit for each lot that comes in. There is grading and drain supply that's being reviewed currently with the construction documents. But once you put a house on that, it changes that. And so that would be reviewed at that time as well. Park fees for this, the total is $84,963.12. Those we do at the final plan, prior to the filing of the final plan. And once you get the development agreement, part of this is a condition of approval. I'll see you just approved it in this in the last item and so that's part of this. Once again compliance matrix we can see that the app it has complied with everything that was requested from us at the time of a review. This shows that the future land use plan map that they are meeting that requirement with the SF 43 as rule state lots as well. The once again, the file plate just informed to the Lakewood metal plenary plaque that she's seen and the motion here tonight will be to either approve, approve with conditions or or to deny, but if you were to approve with conditions or deny, then that's going to have to you'll have to cite some some reasoning for that specifically where where you have state statutes or ordinances that we have. Staff does not feel like there's anything here that does not meet those requirements. And of course the applicant has to answer to that days to follow the plan. Once it's followed, obviously we will allow building permits to be released. Planning only did beat on the September 3rd and their porting recommendation approval with that was a unanimous vote at that point. The only condition here would be one that's already been met and that would be the approval of the developer agreement with that. So with that I'm a valid point question that you may have. I mean facilities agreement. Councilman Krause. Did I say yes I'm the developers any questions you may have. I mean, facilities agreement. Councilor Carrouse. Did I say, yeah, I'm the developers agreement, yeah, which I use the facilities. Okay. Sorry, I wouldn't show. Thank you. Yes. Councilor Carrouse, we're doing other questions. Hmm. I'll hold mine and find out my papers. Another minute or two. Yeah. Councilor Dodson, I'll hold mine and find out my papers another minute or two. House of dots and any questions for staff on this file. As the citizen mentioned earlier about the thoroughfare plan. Is the thoroughfare plan being completed for this development? Whereas that a future state item that will be delivered. So the thoroughfare plan was part of part of the City's comprehensive plan and it was attaching that that was the completed in 2018 And and so that was part of they used that as part of the study when they did the impact these studies Gotcha, so it was associated with that Gotcha, so it wasn't imagined at that time sort of the impact that traffic coming out of the potential trilogy project would have in combination with that. Particularly as it relates to 550 and the traffic coming out of McDonald road and 550 up to and including through the correct methodology should have included the area and it would be part of that study. Do that one out of the travel study probably clearly grows that one of the Saturdays reached the benefit of quite a minute travel. Right. Very well. Any further questions, Councilor Dawesley? I see that you upgraded that water line to an 18 inch water line from a 12 inch that's required to 18 inch and so the six inches once again will be cities, cities participation there. Gotcha. And final question I have will the trails that you have identified and that you've discussed connect anywhere or will they just be through the development? They will connect at some point but right now what the developer is hard to do is to install that for this particular development. I'm not sure if there's a trail system that's been involved in Falcon Point or anything north west of that I'm not I'm not sure if it stopped at Stoneway. Councilor McKenzie. Yes, question for the out. Okay. Yeah. No problem. Any other questions? Councilor. No, no other question. Councilor McKenzie. A little bit of this time. Councilor McKenzie. No sir. Councilor McKenzie. Well, Councilor Coal. No, it consists of. Okay, at this time we have I think that's quite a lot of questions. I think that's quite a lot of questions. I think that's quite a lot of questions. I think that's quite a lot of questions. I think that's quite a lot of questions. I think that's quite a lot of questions. I think that's quite a lot of questions. I think that's quite a lot of questions. I think that's quite a lot of questions. I think that's quite a lot of questions. Councilman Correll, I didn't come back. You want to apologize? That's quite a right question. I guess one was actually, you know, related to public comment and having a schedule McDonald road and make sure that's moving for our for our infrastructure and that our checklist is blank and and I like having a checklist and I like to check list being filled out. Okay. Well, I don't think I would echo it without to check with us being filled out. Okay, great. Well, I don't know how to go with our Councilman Grouse, but at a later date, a review, Mr. Latcher, on one of the federal fair plan states for this road, so we can have that on a later agenda for our residents. Very well. Thank you, Councilman Grouse. I decided to be answering any questions for the applicant Councilman. Home of all, we'll start with him or questions with the applicant. Well, we'll continue. Without further ado, to 18 answer. Yes, ma'am. So there's a, currently there's a 12-inch water line that terminates right here at Falcon Point. Part of this development is we are upgrading the line here that runs on the Gaul road to an 18-inch line, subsequently with our next application. We're also upgrading the waterline on an 18-inch all the way down and then through the interior of the development now. It is understood with conversations with engineering and the city's engineer that this is part of the city's future take potential take point. And so increasing that line to an 18 inch line helps facilitate the city's future needs from a water perspective. Thank you. Just ma'am. It's allowing us a diversity. Seeing us out, that's receiving this road. May I have an opportunity to do that? Further down the side? Thank you. Yes, ma'am. Very question. Thousand of words. Nothing at this time. Thank you. That's one. No, not. No. We were. Um, yeah, this is jumping a little. It's jumping a little bit ahead to the next item. I think again for the sake of clarity not only for the council maybe it was but for the audience. And I'm going to ask, ask for some clarification for you, but I'm also going to offer up again. So in 20, in 2004, a phase of Falcon Point was approved long before any of us were on council. Okay. And that approval resulted in some lots that were smaller than anything that we would have ever approved. But again, that was done 20 years ago. And you can't undo that approval. In 2019, several members of this council myself included approved. I think we call it Lakewood Meadows, which is the portion of this, or you're looking at a portion of this tonight at this moment for this agenda item, that development that PV was approved with minimum one acre lots throughout its entirety. I believe it was a hundred and not over a number of hundred and some odd acres, including 40 acres of floodplain or something like that in about 75 lots or 67 lots. Okay. So here's where the applicant can hopefully give us some clarification, but essentially they took that old development from 2004 and the new development from 2019 kind of mushed it together and then split it in half at a different boundary point. half between 19 development will be brought up in the next agenda item combined with a portion of the 2004 higher density development. Is that a pretty accurate summary? relatively close so the the reason that the two two developments were kind of meshed together is or are not overburdened the existing Falcon Point, Falcon Point Landowners with additional maintenance costs and open space maintenance costs it would be associated with will be considered the Bristol Valley plan. And so that's why it's kind of been rebranded as a separate name where the Bristol Valley name came in. This is States of Bristol Valley, which you're looking at right now in yellow. This is actually more of a custom home section, higher in lots, a semi-gated entry feature. So, you know, these lots will retail for about $450,000 for this section right here. So this is going to kind of get a step up from what would be surrounding this right now. So just a little bit different branding, a little bit different to aspect to kind of for some marketing purposes just as a different brand on it. I appreciate the clarity. Very good. And again, just to clarify for the audience, the portion that used to be called liquid meadows, it's entirety, and I guess as a question to the applicant, has this final plat deviated at all from the preliminary plat? No sir, there are no deviations from the preliminary plat. Which is the 2019 preliminary plat? That's correct. Okay, so that bet has not changed. Okay, thank you. Thank you. Thank you, Councilman Dodson. Any questions? No, I'm interested in time. No other questions. Thank you. Councilman Dawson. Any questions? No, the interest of time. No other questions. Very well. Councilman Krauss. Any questions? No. Thanks. Okay. If there's no further questions, yes. Councilman Colwell. You said it's semi-gated, so you're not going to dedicate the road. It's not going to be city road. No, man, there will be city roads. So it'll have a gated entryway, but it's non-access control. So anybody who pulls up to the gate, the gates will open. It won't be. It's not privatized. You don't have to have security card or punch code or anything like that. You just pull up to the gate and the gate. It's aesthetically secure. It's a thank you. Okay. We call it a throw gate at community with an actual gate. When he said half-cated, I thought, well, I've done something much different about my Athens. So I actually thank you for the clarity. I was like, I don't. Great. Thank you. Are there any further questions, Council? Very well. So, one other question and I'm not sure if you have this view in your slide. Dick, I guess I'm looking. I don't know if I'm looking at setback lines or drainage easement lines because we are looking at a, we're talking about a plat here. So I guess I'm looking into some, some details on drainage easements that we spoke to earlier. Yes, sir. So we actually have in, on all of our lots on our, on our shared lot lines, we have drainage easements located along all of our lots in order to allow the water to drain through the shared lot line. In addition to that, we're this particular development backs up to the existing Falcon Point Phase 1 which along this property boundary right here, we're actually the drainage area maps show. There's water coming off of these existing lots onto the property, kind of running down this shared easement line right here. So we incorporated that drainage easement on the back of these lots. In order to facilitate that water to continue to drain. I've down this way and then it continues on through the existing Falcon Point neighborhood down here. That's part of the existing drainage drainage area map. In our engineering studies, the initial drainage area was taking on about 17.5 CFS of water flow with our revisions that water or that CFS has been reduced to 12.3. So we're not we're taking significant less amount of water to that same area that it was always going to. But in order to keep that water from going back there, there's an existing tree line and vegetation along the shared boundary right here that in order to facilitate that water coming into the street, we would have to remove all of vegetation, remove that existing tree line, remove the native things that these residents have enjoyed for several years and having it in their back view. So we didn't want to do that. That's why we're requesting the the lots of a lot of energy. Very well. Council, we're earning further questions. No, that's it. Thank you. Okay. Mr. Quick question. It's their sidewalk on the McDonald's. Yes, there'll be a 10 foot trail that runs along the McDonald's. Yes, sir. I thought I'd tell that. And just for just just so council knows and we've also been in contact with city staff about possible trail connections as this means further up here in existing trail from stone lead that kind of stops at there's a large state partial Falcon Point as it exists right now. So we have been in talks with staff on how to facilitate that in parts of part of visual and how to facilitate. I guess it's representative from parts of part of it on how to facilitate those trail connections and possibly utilize some part funds that we're paying in order to to do some offside trail. Very good. That was that was going to be my second question. I don't have any quick session. I'm going to have a quick session. I'm going to have a quick session. I'm going to have a quick session. I'm going to have a quick session. I'm going to have a quick session. I'm going to have a quick session. I'm going to have a quick session. I'm going to have a quick session. I'm going to have a quick session. I'm going to have a quick session. motion to approve with the staff recommendation. Okay, we have a motion on the floor by Councilman Dodson. I stated this is an approval of a final plat for the Bristol Valley edition. That. Do we have a second? I'll say. We have a second by Councilman Colwell. So the motion moves. All of those are is case number F-P-2-0-2-4-0-9 considering an act on a facility's agreement is a requirement for the developer, the beginning of the developer in the city. And once again, the development of the developers agreement is to ensure that the improvements are going to be complete. Essentially, we're looking at the same thing that we talked about from the previous development agreement. The only difference in this is that there's tree mitigation that's associated with this particular development agreement and the amount of $653,731.20 and so that amount will be due with the time of filing of the final plaque, as well as the emergency warning sign that will be placed. The afternoon is working with staff and with the chief to provide a emergency sign warning sign for that location. And so other than that, it's the same details that are in here from the previous, other than the highlight one highlight area where they included that the fees will be due at the time of finding a flat. I'm available for any questions to you. Very well before we go down the bench, I would like to say I was very impressed with the developer and you guys offering up on item like cyrants because that was something in which we had been talking about budgeting and working be fiercely as we just went through a severe weather storm and you guys are offering that up with just a genuine heart of concern. I was very impressed. Also too, very impressed that you guys have been working with staff to try to figure out how to connect trails and that wasn't even a pressure. Pretty fun you guys trying to get this agreement so again I was very impressed that you guys were doing that. At this time council do we have any questions as it pertains to this specific facilities agreement. Again we've kind of gone through the plots and the reason for these separate facilities agreements. So, Calisthenne, Kraus, do you have any questions for staff? I echo your, yeah, that's amazing that we decided, that they decided to put in sirens. I think we should add that to our list in our future developments, as well as water wells. I mean, you're going to bring in a bunch of houses and we're going to get a bus kick for approval. And we'll be great if there's a water well in the middle of that mess. Other than that. No. Thank you. Councilman Grouse, Councilman Dodson, any questions on this specific facilities agreement? No questions. A statement, if I may. Please. to the citizen that spoke earlier. If I look at both of these facilities agreements, I think one of your questions was sort of the overall acreage and the number of homes on the acreage. When I look at these two facility agreements, at least I count 127 homes on 277.32 acres. So that's sort of what it looks like and that of course is inclusive of the floodplain in there as well. No other questions for the engineer? Very well. Thank you, Calc for dogs and the council and we were questions for staff. Could you clarify one more time about the tree mitigation? You briefly mentioned? Yes, so on the tree mitigation, they have over 12,000 inches of trees that they need to mitigate for and through tree cred and so forth they will be able to reduce that down to 6,000 and put the number of trees that they are adding to each lot they're providing for four in trees above and beyond with what's required. Just three trees is required by the PD. There have been on four trees to help with the mitigation. There are four inch trees for each property. And so the final mitigation that they have remaining the balance of 4,000 and 82 inches, they're going to pay $160 per inch and that's how they're arriving at that figure. Okay, and does that remaining balance comply with our 40% cap on the fee and lieu of? Yeah, based on the credit that was provided from the trees from the I mean, trees that are removed. So trees that remain are not part of the total mitigation requirement. Okay, but you don't get double credit for those trees that remain. Yeah. Okay. Right. Yeah. In my public on this speaking, I need to reread that. So. Okay. Thank you. Very well. Thank you. Councilman. We were. Councilman Mormon. No, no, no, it's a stone. Councilman Rufo. No questions. I appreciate the. Clarity on the different pieces and how it all came together and where the PDs are just you know It's been a I mean it's been a lot of different conversations about these tracks So it's I appreciate the clarity. Thank you very good announcement. Go. Well, I'm kind of like brant this number seems off like high with the The placement of all these larger trees is spinning out. So, we 100% right, so if we double check these numbers, because 653,000 things like an off a lot of the 40% kill. 4,000, 82 inch point, whatever time it's 160, comes to the 653,000 outside. I took a look at the 3-stake plant. There's your trail connection. Just getting the parts skate blind. There's your trail connection. Just getting me a parts pass. I mean, okay. I mean, I look at it myself as well when I saw that. Any audiences have to go. Yeah, it's a great word. Yeah. I am so glad. Thank you. I've said that about a hundred times. Is that a bit of a like, there's some paths. Wow. I did not realize. Good news to those of times past. Those that have updated. So in this time we'll have the applicant take the black run. And allow on the facilities agreement if there's any specific questions that you have for the applicant. I didn't want to do this same thing for six. At this time, council, it's an open floor. Do you have any questions for the applicant? I did just want to add a couple of comments. So the tornado warning siren, and it was actually a siren, it's actually a system that the city can utilize to expand further. In a meeting that we have a chief Siri about 10 days ago, he has indicated that they are also including and future budgetary items, the balance of the sirens that will be needed to cover the city fully. So this initial install, we've actually already initiated with the contractor to get everything ordered. It's our goal to have this in place before the springtime storms roll around. But it is a we are providing the actual system that will be monitored very select few have a button on their cell phone that can put us in set the whole thing not. It's really a great thing. It's the exact same system they have installed in Rockwall. Actually, the base will be located in the dispatch office up there. So I think it's a great addition to the city. We're happy to provide that. Also, there's some additional trail connections associated with this. Well, I guess we don't have the plant here. But there's an existing trail that comes out of stone that stops at the same partial of land and then there's actually a connection kind of be good stewards of the city and of the residents. And so we're happy to need us. Thanks. Very good. I'm glad you brought that up. I met. Yes. Across on the siren, you know, within our agreement. It says emergency siren shall be of quality. Comparable to those approved by the city within 12 months preceding the effective date, which halfway. I don't think we've ever approved it. Oh, it's, it's gonna be within, I guess the effective date of it. So it'll be installed within 12 months of the effective date. So yours will be the standard against the two of your say? No, it's the exact same, it's the exact same system that the city of Rockwell has. Yeah, yeah. that city Rockwell has. We've provided all the specs, all the cut foods, and we're going to learn on the chief of the city manager. I mean, it's actually what I, they don't need to have to work with a bunch of proposals. They would work with us now. The budget is approved. This will find the system because the developer finds in our system allow us to take money that we've already did for an expand to know it's our figures will not having the product controller. Oh fantastic. So you're comfortable with this language. You're playing. Yeah. Okay. I've again, I've got five pages of questions. Yeah. If you don't think I'd have you go. I should please pour folks have been answering all day. You actually just the only. This will be a problem. I'm going to go to see the only one that's going to be a crop one. I'm going to go ahead and see the other. And that connectivity, ensure health, especially when you're talking about things going absolutely, or what that's all about. Number very good. Thank you to Councilman Crouse. Thank you to the applicant. At this time, the Chairwoman of the floor for revocation on 6.I.Keyes number of E2, 02, or 09. for revocation on six dot i case number e to zero to four zero dyn uh just an action on facility agreement it's going to city of heat and tm Bristol Valley concerning the development of the final flat or Bristol Valley based one condition. I will make that motion. That councilman Goggle has a motion to approve. Yes. Okay. Council uh do we have a second? Second. We have a second by Councilman Dodson. Well, clarification. One clarification. Discussion item. Go ahead, Councilman Weaver. I just wanted to confirm that the, I think the answer is yes, but the city engineers suggestion to include in the motion about locked lock drainage. That's already been unimportant. Here's like a tell in today's updated facility agreement. Thank you. Very good. Great clarification. The motion moves. All of those in favor say aye. Aye. Aye. Those opposed. It passes unanimously. Moving into six dot j case number or F p two zero two fours zero is there a not even considered act on a black or the personal value phase one addition containing a hundred three single family locks and seven common areas being a one hundred eighty four dot four two eight acre track of land and zone PDSF playing the building district for single family residential uses by ordinance just by ordinance number 040715A. Ornance number 191 in 008A. Generally located west of McDonald Road in the south of Falun Point Drive and being described as A02-311, Antonio Rodriguez. So really track number 31 and 51-01. So you need Rockwell County, Texas Rockwell, Cadd number 1-2965 and 1-3004, Mr. Kizal. Mr. Ra, thank you Mayor. And once again, this is the location, just right next door to the States of Bristol Valley. And this is a 103 lot development. And it has been discussed. This had the two ordinances associated with this. Once again, the 2004 ordinance is going to include the lots that you see below here. This is kind of a line that draws where, sorry, it's this line right here. This line that draws where the Lakewood color was up here. This is the Falcon Point portion of this from the 2004 that approved your SF-22 lots, or your half acre lots. And so it of these, those particular lots meet those requirements. The remainder here meets the one acre requirement that's established in the 2019 ordinance. And so with this once again just as with the other class, we do have access that's gained from the McDonald Road and they had two trucks of access actually. One that serves, one that, one that, some are set circle, serves 12 different lots and then with the associated with that and you move down a little more to the south, you get all the wind that serves the rest of the development and connects with other streets, which will eventually connect to Bridgewater Drive, also over to the Falcon Point Corsion and connect to Mockingbird Lane there. So this is what you have your two points of access. Once again, water sewer drainage drainage once again will be reviewed at the time of building permits. So as each law is is plat submits for building permit, then they'll go through that review process development agreement once again you've already taken a look at that and forwarding a approval for that. Park fees, we talked about that already as well from the previous item. And so that's just showing within this, within this plant. Compliance matrix, when we take a look at this, once again, you've got the two zoning here that we take a look at and make that comparison. The applicant has answered all the questions associated with this and checked all call the boxes so to speak for this and so the development does meet the rural states. Get this done over here the rural states designation from the from the comprehensive plan and the future landies plan. And we take a look at the Lakewood Meadows and Falcon Point phase three fluttering flats. Once you see this does meet the the preliminary flat as far as how it's laid out. The motion here would be to approve approved conditions or deny once again, if you're to approve with condition or deny, then you need to state specific reasons for that factor to not identify anything associated with that. And once again, the flat will be filed within 365 days. And planning and zoning this board and recommendation of approval from their September 3rd meeting that was a unanimous and a vote as well and the the only condition that we have outlined here for council will be the approval of the development agreement which has already occurred as well. So with that, I'm available to answer any questions that you may have concerning the final part. Very good. I just like to stress yet again, I know that we've done it for the record, but these preliminary flats, one being two thousand, one being two thousand nineteen. So just want to be very clear of that it has to meet some at it. As we look at density, however, in general, there's a lot of acreage in comparison to how many lots, but for the general public, when they see half acre lots, going against the grant ordinance of one home, on one developer acre. But I knew that what's been presented and by the accommodations of this developer, it's going to be a beautiful neighborhood. So at this time, we'll open floor for any questions for staff, Councilman Kraus. Do you have any questions? Yeah, so the tree mitigation is we're not doubling this. This tree is this another 653,000 tree mitigation.? Yes, that's the correct answer. Okay, so on top of the other mitigation. No, well, no, that's just one mitigation that's to... It covers two. You need to go on top of that. You're calling me the same thing. I try. I try where I can. I'm going to get those trails down one way or another. You know, that's... That's right. It's just... to get those trails down one way or another. You know, it's that. Okay. So, it was just right. So, I can page 304, our checklist is blank. I would like us to use the check rooms. That's why we made it. The RC comments have been addressed. The, and the guy was there, page 325 is exhibited exhibit C, conditions, regulations, restrictions. This is where I mentioned they would improve McDonald Road but you're saying since then we've done a feasibility study with every study. And also when I asked I think was right to the door might mention that all this was also included in our sewer system study, right? I said, you know, so all these lots aren't gonna affect our sewer is that that's already been considered and with the data. It's considered in the sewer, but everything plan we already have. So this is nothing new to the plan we already have. So I've formed you clear about it. Okay, that is clear. And then this also says the development should be limited to the first phase of no more than 100 lots until each time to such time that the second seventh point of the EGRIS EGRIS EGRIS is developed and approved. The subject is that still also applicable? Yes, that's that's what we talked about coming down bridge water, bridge water road and connected to Markwoodordland that will then connect up to Dr. Mpley. So this is one of the stipulations to approve this as that is limited to 100? All right, there they go. Okay, yeah. Yeah, no. So Councilman Cross, the exhibit that you're referencing there, exhibit C was part of the initial zoning for the Falcon Point development. And on the Falcon Point development, this only was approved back in 2004, which included Falcon Point Phase 2, Falcon Point Phase 1, you're still in the county and it was later brought into the city limit. So that exhibit see explicitly references Falcon Point development. And so if we look, we'll get it right. So this is the existing Falcon Point development right here. And when it says it was limited to 100 lots up in the single point of access, it's Falcon Point drive as it accesses McDonald Road. With our, with our, with our plant, we are actually coming back in, off of McDonald Road and then tying back in off of the dollar road and then tying back into the development here. So actually, we're providing the existing Falcon Point residents with a secondary point of access with, with the completion of construction. So the exhibit C just references the 100 lots that were associated with Falcon Point phase on phase two. Because we didn't know when, what was gonna occur, what the person was. Yes, or that's great. So, okay. So both of these contingencies are no longer applicable as far as exhibit C, but the ordinance as far as the zoning you're saying is still applicable. The exhibit C was only applicable to Falcon Point. And so the Falcon Point area from a dawn road standpoint, only has a short area that is actually front's onto McDonald Road. Then the hundred of odds which are existing today in Falcon Point, no more Watts could be built without a secondary point of access. And so our secondary point of access is actually coming up through the Lakewood Meta's plaque. Okay. And Rich, I think that was one of the main things we talked about in 2019 point of access is actually coming up through the Lakewood Meta's plaque. And Rich, I think that was one of the main things we talked about in 2019, that bringing us to the visa property was going to give that egress required to go through with phase three of Falcon. Okay, and you're right, it does say Falcon pulling, we've got three hundred and ten acres. Yeah, okay. Okay, very well. Councilman Dodson. Now question. Question for staff. That's what we were. No, no questions for staff, but I will. Does anybody have this slide in their slide, Dick? Okay, is that 300? 300 of 470, 30. Yes. That's going to be where we have it. Literally this but the actual plat layout. I'm not aware that she could turn up what she's there. Okay, and this will be fine. Again, just to will be fine. And again, just for clarity, what would be considered the right half of this plat is the 2019 approval, which is all one acre, the lower center portion and the left center portion are the 2004 portions as it pertains to the Falcon point approvals from 2004. And so you can look at those and see the the market difference in law sizes, the half acre to the mayor had said a moment ago, when something is approved, when zoning has approved, even though it was approved 20 years ago, and we're just now seeing the final plat tonight, when it's approved like that, we cannot unapproved. And so, again, even though something like that would not be approved today, with those half-figure lots, it was approved historically and we have to proceed with it, period. That's the law in Texas. So it becomes ministerial as long as it complies with the zoning that was approved at that time. And so that's where we are today with this. At no fault of the developer, he inherited it, if you know, with some strategic money. He paid you an heritage. So, anyway, just wanted to clarify that one more time. And by the way, there is, and the reason I was looking for this particular slide was these additional phases of the original 2004 approval for the continuation of Falcon Point, there's more of this coming. And that's the point I wanted to make. This is just a piece of it. There's more of it coming, I can't recall the total count, but it's not again, not something that we're pleased about, but it's something that we are stuck with. The other portion, the one acre portion, the beautiful floodplain, and that's preserved in the middle, we approved in 2019, we're pleased about that. So that was it. Thank you. Thank you. Councilmember Weaver, Councilmember Norman. You know, Very well. Councilmember Bo. Yeah. I'm good. Thank you. Councilmember Cobblow. Yeah, I have to be inappropriate. Do you live here? In the city of Heath. Yeah. No, I'm other than the city. Well, you could move here and could you have a meeting with other developers? And I think that's not saying to me that this is very interesting to me. Well, thank you. Thank you very much. This is our community. I mean, we do live in Rockwell County. We love Rockwell County. We love the city of Heath as well. And then we want to be good stewards and our bank alerts. Thank you. I do see them in a lot of events. So thank you. All right, very good. Well, if there are no further questions for staff or for the applicant at this time, the chair will open the floor to an in-emotion. Make a motion to approve. Chair, we have a motion on the floor by announcement of roof owed to a fruit. Final black for brusket valley. Phase one addition contained 103 single family lots and seven common areas being a 184 acre track lands on P.S.F. Land Development District for single family residential. We used this by the one and number zero four eight eight. Second. I'll just compliment you in a long second. All right. Councilman Caldwell, we have a second question. We do have one follow up question. Councilman, we were- Same question I asked a moment ago about the, at least as it pertains to the 2019 preliminary plat has there been any changes in this final plat from the 2019 preliminary plat? No sir, no changes. It means from the 2019, we'll carry plat and we'll do that. Perfect, just wanted to defend a record. That's very record. Thank you. For 103 lots, dating back to 2019, making this a ministerial situation for us very well. We have a second promotion moves all those are favorites. I're going to continue on this trail. We're going to move into agenda item six dot in case numbers, a two zero two four zero two are we're going to conduct a public hearing and act on an application to change the zoning classification or agricultural district to a PSF plan development for SF 43 single family residential uses for property address 6 717 South FM 549 and further described as track 18 a Rodriguez survey abstract 231 city of Heath Rockwell County Texas Rockwell Cadad number 12922. The zoning change age to facilitate the creation of the residential subdivision to contain no more than 10 residential lots measuring at least one available acre. Missed Ella. Thank you Mayor and Council you guys may remember this from a brief look you've had at it back in July. This is a revised application and I'll be pointing out some of, I'll be pointing out all of the differences between the application and the one that was included in your packet, was July 23rd. And Mr. Dowles, one of the property owners he is here tonight with his team, led by KFM engineering, and they do have a few slides to present to you. So that'll, if you, if the council so chooses to hear from them, that could follow my presentation. The property is currently zoned Ag and they are requesting a planned development zoning with the underlying based zoning of SF 43. We published notice of this hearing on August 16th. And as I mentioned, a previous iteration, actually there've been two iterations of concepts for this property. One was presented back in the fall of last year and withdrawn the evening of the moratorium passing. Following that, they hit reset. A new team came on board to work with Mr. Dowl and they put forward the application in July that went to planning and zoning commission. That application was recommended for denial without the prejudice. It came forward to you. They asked for withdrawal at that meeting and you granted their withdrawal. So they went back to the drawing board a bit and addressed all of the comments that they received from the Planning and Zoning Commission and put forth a revised application. And we've received four responses from the notices that were mailed out to neighbors, two in favor, and two in opposition. The original concept plan is shown on the screen here, and it included 12 logs with a 1300-ish, but cul-de-sac, with the turnabout in the intermediate turnaround, to break up the link of that cul-de-sac. There was one common area detention pond proposed up here right at the property line adjacent to 549. And the planning and zoning commission gave them feedback that focused mostly on a request for them to reduce the lockout and to make the layout more unique for to set it apart from other similar subdivisions in Heath. And they went back to the drawing board, like I said, and they also addressed the Planning and Zoning Commission with this original application had some heartburn about the front yard setbacks. They were showing a combination of 30 and 40-foot setbacks, and our SF-43 district requires 50-foot setbacks. So the PNZs requested that they try to find a way to push that setback back to 50 feet. And so they brought forward this revised application, which is in your. Danny, I'm not going to use the remote. Working. the remote is still working. There we go. So the new concept plan is shown here. I'm going to point out a few things that make it different from the original one. Of course, it's the same piece of property so the acreage is the same. But they reduced the number of lots from 12 down to 10. And so of course that also made the density less. And the key that way that they accomplished that was there were previously three lots across here and they took two of them out or four lots across here and they took two of them out of four lots across here. And they took two of them out and they retained an area that was kind of a low spot on the terrain and have turned this into a second detention pond that they've aminitized with some landscaping. They're retaining an existing tree line right here but then also adding more landscaping, adding a 10th foot trail to come across, meander through the tree line, wrap around the edge of the pond, and then go back toward the street, across through the landscaped median that they've added, and then allow for folks to get on the sidewalk here and work their way back to be able to access the other on foot, the other detention pond. They added some interesting curves to the street and added two more landscaped medians here. They added some enlarged this turnaround area in order to accomplish that. And the result is 50 foot setbacks on the 10 lots that they have shown here. So the original application included four variances and that also gave the P andZ some heartburn. So what they've come back with is one variance related to the cul de sac link. And while they were working on the things that the P&Z asked, they also addressed a couple of other concerns which were fencing requirements. So they have placed some language in the plan development standards to ensure that all the fencing and the development is raw dire or tubular steel. And they also addressed a concern about the water line not being being a dead in water line. So they've looped that or they will when they turn in plans later on with their flat. And I've already mentioned the aesthetic improvements. The two areas, the two detention areas here and here are in HOA common lots that will be maintained by the HOA that they will be creating with the development. So here's just a closer look at the cul de sac. It does exceed the maximum length in our engineering design standards of 600 feet. They're requesting 1,350 feet with an intermediate turnaround. My apologies, this is the old concept plan. Just as a reminder, the new concept plan looks like this on the right. The cul-de-sac on here, they've included some diagrams showing this little rectangle right here is a fire truck. So they're just demonstrating that the fire truck can in fact make its way around the bulb of the cul-de-sac as well as the turnabout in the intermediate turnaround area here. This has also been reviewed by the Fire Marshall and he has given his approval. We have approved several cul-de-sac length greater than 600 feet in the recent years. I'm just showing you those here on the screen. You may remember, most recently, the Chapel View neighborhood, which is just right down the street here on Hebert, which was a project by Mr. Joyce's team that approved a cold a sack that looks like this right here. That's on the plat. It's not, I'm showing you the plat because it's not built yet. It'll go right here where this driveway is. Actually they have built the street. We just don't have an aerial that shows it. The a couple of doors down the dominion also includes a cold asac similar in length. I think this one's about 1100 feet. And then if we jump over to Terry, we've approved in Ambrosia, a cul-de-sac with an intermediate turnaround, no landscaping and no extra median treatments here. But it does have a little feature at the end in the bowl down here. And then finally, if you go down a little farther on Terry, the, I think this is Luther Lane, it's called the sea bolt neighborhood. This includes basically a dead end street with a little bit of a fork situation going on down here at the end. So these are, this is a situation that we take on a case-by-case basis, but we have in recent years, sea vault was approved many years ago, but these others have been within the last six or seven years. So the development standards mirror the SF-43 regulations pretty tightly. We do have on this concept plan eight one acre lots and two one and a half acre lots, so do all the setbacks, obviously the garage orientation rules. They do add a 100% masonry requirement with a limit of how much of that can be three step step-co. And we've already talked about the street and the fencing standards. They will conform to our outdoor lighting ordinance and add sidewalks along both sides of the street. In addition to the 10th foot trail that they're proposing within the development. entry feature when they present plans for that, it'll go to the ARB for their review and approval. Just as far as drainage goes, of course, when this, the next step in this process will be for them to prepare a preliminary plot and then prepare engineering plans to go along with the final plot. And we'll be reviewing all of the drainage standards at that time to ensure that they do conform with the engineering design standards. And then again, Nicole the sack is mentioned again. So the it's important for this zoning to be compatible with other zoning in the immediate area. So this is a little clip from our zoning map that's showing you that to the west, this blue area right here along Gensbele, this is the this is a church. To the north is Hills of Buffalo Creek. To the east of the property is an agricultural use and zoning right here. And then to the south, that's what I mentioned, as Buffalo, I mean, cobblestone farms. Along Danace Bailey, south of the church, there are some estate lots that do back directly on to share a property line with this subject property. And those are all zoned SF43. So the zoning change does comply with the zoning classifications in the immediate area. And it also conforms to the designation on the future land use map, which has this area designated for rural estates. SF43 is a compatible zoning district for that designation. So is that existing designation of the AG and also our three acre district for SFE3. You know, the compliance matrix is shown in your packet. There is one thing to note and that is the requested variance for the cul-de-sac-leaf. So when it comes to making rezoning decisions, there's some guidance in our comprehensive plan. We've gone through this pretty extensively recently regarding another large property. So I'll just leave this on the screen here for a second and highlight a few of the questions. One is does the development provide something unique? Is it within walking distance to these important features? And also does it provide for off-strait pedestrian and bicycle use? And then how does it you should consider how it impacts the city fiscal year. And another, a couple of, another question would be how does it treat environmentally significant areas. And is it appropriate for the near term and the long term if it's not developed in the near term? So that's, those are some of the questions that you can help, can help you as you frame how you're gonna exercise your discretion in zoning matters. And then we also have gone through this list of all of the reasons that we have zoning in the first place and what the zoning districts are intended to accomplish. Of course, this is all included in your packet as well. And I'm reading the room tonight in all of these. People have seen this many times before, so I'm not going to go through it in detail. But I'm happy to answer any questions that you might have about how the zoning district, the recent for zoning districts could inform your decisions tonight. So with that, I'll just summarize by saying that following this zoning change should it be successful. The next step for the development team would be to do a preliminary plan, a final plan, and then during that time they'll be working on engineering studies and public improvement plans, and you'll see a facility agreement for this development like the ones that you saw tonight for the Bristol Valley development. And they'll, at that time, they're going to demonstrate how they will connect to one of the various water lines that are in the immediate vicinity of this property, as well as how they'll connect to the 10-inch sewer line that's along Dennis Bailey. So with that, I'll stop and ask if you have any questions. And then I do have a motion suggestion. Should you make a motion to approve, We do recommend that you go ahead and state and approval of the cold-assack link variance that they're asking for. Okay, very well. Council, at this time, we'll ask our questions of staff. Council, we call well. You have any questions for staff? Mr. Chair, Councilman Ruebo. Not at this time. Councilman Longman. Yes, I would like to ask about, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Is that submitted at the final plat or the preliminary plat? It will be submitted with the final plat. The final plat, okay. Can we ask about looping it or is that something that they're working on? So, I don't think that they've even taken a pen to paper yet on engineering, but that is a typical requirement that I've seen often, but Richard Dormars quick to point out that I'm not an engineer. And he is here tonight. And I'm sure he would love to make his way up to the podium and answer your question about looping the water line. So again, that'll happen during the newsletter and the process for literature. Because ultimately, they're asking for variants, right? And then further, there will be a facilities agreement. Yes, yeah. Welcome to the show. Okay, well, we'll let Richard answer this question. Richard, how many dead in neighborhood, roughly, dead in neighborhoods, do we have in the city right now? I don't know. I haven't answered her that, but it's a lot. Yes, a lot. Well, and that's my only concern as far as the water and having the flush systems and stuff. And I know we're here to prove something different, but that is my concern as far as the looping of the water line. Right. We're just at this point trying to consciously limit any more difficulty. I bet Brian Creed knows the answer to that. He might. He may be 161 days. All right. Okay. So we do have one automatic blotcher on Austin. It allows. So that's an option. I think the way to do this one's probably going to be come back back behind the church and you're back to Dennis Bailey. Okay, we'd probably be the way to do it. We'll let the engineer figure it out. Yeah, it can be done. And if it's not an available thing, then we would look at the automatic pleasure and just flush it back to the service systems. So, thank you. Thanks, sir. Thank you. Councilman. Councilman Weber. Yeah, quick question. Tree mitigation. We sort of that. We looked at that. We haven't. That will be. I don't think I know that's a requirement with the preliminary platter. The middle. So they'll, they have time between now and then to get their tree survey done and flag any that they plan to remove and that's where we'll take the type of that. They don't have a ton of trees on this property, but they do have a nice tree line that kind of cuts across that they're preserving in that pond area. Councilor Dodson. Just a comment, Erin, applaud you and staff for working with the applicant on this. I think that the steps that they made per P and Z's guidance is definitely helpful from an aesthetic perspective. Like the detention pond piece as well. And the way that the road just doesn't go back in a shotgun manner to the variant as do some of the other developments that we have here in heat. So you'll do a nice job collectively providing feedback and then giving counsel as the applicant to develop that follow-on plan. What's very kind of you, they were very eager to do what they needed to do. They heard they read the room in PNC, the development team did, and they were very eager and easy to work with. So yeah. I'm sure you did. Boom. All right, very good. Thank you, Councilor Dodson. Councilor Kraus. So I guess I had that one question, page 463 out of four, we have construction materials for their masonry says you can use concrete block and that concerns me with that. Yeah so the they are prepared to do a presentation to the night so it would be great for them to provide you that clarity. I'm good being 8 ED I had to ask a lot of what I would say. That's alright. Any further questions for Sam? No but isn't there any way in the middle of this week to take it five minutes? I would be up for that. We need to switch the slides over. So let's do that. Thank you for that recommendation and 927. We will take five minute recess. I'm sorry. I must have moved. God, it's hard to do. I'm moving. From the beginning, much more to how the test started. I'll do it. It's going to be a lot of work. Chief, nice job on the dress blues, man. Thank you. Very well done. It's hard to make a cat of special or something all the way. Very, very well done. You don't be there Saturday? Yeah, absolutely. Looking forward to seeing you all. Hopefully it's going to be sitting in your table. Yeah. That would be out. Yeah, thanks. Thank you. No. Yeah, thanks. Yep, thank you. No, sir. I look at for to meet your wife. Yeah, she is. Nice. Nice. It's a good deal. Perfect. Now, we'll have an auction. It's a real. Yeah. Okay. Last year, I tried to get an Argentina does that. Oh, okay. Bash here, I'll drive to those. Get it all the team. It does look like the team. Oh man. I'm made. That's all the top. So I've looked at those before, Brynn. I love those, but then when you add onto that, like the cost of getting there, it's the cost of getting there kind of over top of that. Because at TDP, I've bid on those before you get all jacked up. We're like okay. You need $100. That's a good number. And then the next two book, once we're talking about it, it's okay. Yeah. Yeah. That would have been a good one. Right. Yeah. We'll go. We'll see. But from five months, it was like five of a month. Five people in one eye. It's all over. You just got to pay for the airfare. Yeah, yeah, right. All right. The top butteries, I think. You say, look, I got this. You'll pay your way to get there. Right. Now the currency is so devalued and urgent to enter right now. I mean like Epic it's like 800% inflation and everything else so the dollar there is so very strong It's what I heard that you would do well there in country. That's what I heard I heard like you bring your dad your dude's dad's like came along Oh, huh? Yeah, they can't get there. Yep. That's right. That's right. Yeah. Yeah Right, that's right. That's right. Yeah. Yeah. So, that's it. Right. Well, they, uh, they're new president just cut their size of government by 80% because they had so many years of like overrun and government just became bigger, bigger, and bigger, and bigger. They built all these monuments to government and everything and the new when they took over. There's kind of a physical conservative and they slash all of them. Yeah, it's been about this truth for a long time. Yeah. Right. And I'm going to try to do the time. Yeah. And one thing I've been looking at, one of the things that I've been looking at, one of the things that I've been looking at, and the people of the building, where do you get it? Yeah. Well, that's what they do in Mexico, because it's the southern end of the, of the, of the, it's a flyway, for ducks and geese and what have you. So like in Matamor's, Mexico and things like that, that, that they have to stop because the gun barrels are so wide hot. Yeah. are so white hot. And you can only take home. You can shoot and that's like yeah. Yeah. I mean, brammit, that would be a high class problem to have. Oh yeah. Yeah. Sorry. We're going to have a time and actually, you know, we're going to have to do it. Oh, that is so cool. That's by the way. That is that is Yeah, yeah, you get the women with the TVC you got listening going. So happy with you. Yeah. It's terrific. I think it's a good thing to work with you. Yeah. It's a good thing to work with you. Yeah. It's a good thing to work with you. Yeah. It's a good thing to work with you. It's a good thing to work with you. It's a good thing to work with you. Yeah, is it is just and favorable to that in my book? Good. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, I'm going to give it all back. Oh, I'm going to give it all back. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm going to go back to the last thing that I can't see. I'm going to go back to the last thing that I can't see. I'm going to go back to the last thing that I can't see. I'm going to go back to the last thing that I can't see. I'm going to go back to the I think that's the end of the year. I'm really proud of the year. I really think that's the end of the year. I'm really proud of the year. I'm really proud of the year. I'm really proud of the year. I'm really proud of the year. I'm really proud of the year. I'm really proud of the year. I'm really proud of the year. I'm really proud I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. to the community. We have to I'm sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, so I feel like that. and the other with systems and tools to make the people part of themselves to the world. And the roots of our head are not to be the main purpose of the game. We may have a lot of people who are having some support and a great impact. So again, I'm sorry, I'm just glad that we have a lot of people here, and I'm just really excited to be able to talk to them and to make sure that we can have something to do I'm going to get the council back on the bench. All right guys, let's go ahead and pull it back in. We're bringing it to council back on the bench. Come on guys. We will reconvene from recess at 935. So we are still in 6.n case number ZA202402 are we have no further questions for staff Knight. I'm the CEO of KFM Engineering Design. We're pleased to be here in front of you tonight. It's been a little bit of a process. We've really, frankly, enjoyed working with staff. They've been very helpful. The P&Z was really good to work with. We think we've come up with a plan here tonight that will work well for the community. We'll add a lot of value and is appropriate. And so we can answer hopefully any questions you want. We know how we can handle the dual feeds for the fire or or count for that. We heard your question earlier about the concrete block. That was borrowed from a previous PD that had that language in there. We have no intention to refine the strike in that item. We want to deliver both the project and the community. So I can talk about this for as long as you want, but more than anything, you're the answering questions you might have. Okay. Very well. Do you guys have a presentation that you'd like to proceed with or would you like us to go ahead and ask you questions specifically? Mr. Mayor, I think we're five. Do you want to ask questions? I think Aaron did a really good job of presenting the information and here to help it anyway. Thank you, Mr. Knight. At this time, Council will ask the applicant any questions that you may have. Councilman Colwell. I would actually I'm sorry. Councilwoman. Councilman Norman at this time you have the floor? Just re-interrating earlier what Mr. Creed said about the 161 dead in lines. That's not only concerned because I understand what the city say to build these developments where they are looted and we're not having to deal with the maintenance nightmare of flushing these systems and wasting the water, but you know that and what they said earlier that's done at the final black. So that's it. Thank you, Councilman Warren, Councilman Rucco. No questions at this time. Councilman Krauss. He covered the one question I did that on the country blocks. We just very good. Councilman Dodson. No questions, thank you. Councilman Weaver. No specific questions, I guess a few comments. You know, first of all, thank you and the other applicants that are here for working through this process. You understand it's long and arduous. It's part of what makes heath heath. If it weren't the case, we wouldn't look like Heath. So I guess we don't really have a slide here to reference the moment, but again, regarding some of the surrounding properties and some forth, there's, there has, as you had heard during PNC meetings, that there was definitely a push to make these lots as large as possible, directly across the street and what's called Bison or what we call Bison Meadows. I believe is three to five acre lots. I understand that there were some challenges in trying to incorporate three acre lots into this development. You guys have certainly moved the needle in the right direction and what you've done here is I commend you for that with the larger incorporating 20% of your lots as over one acre, 1.5 acres essentially. So I'll come into for that and from the open space and so forth. You know, I think, you know, as a council, we're always trying to push to make things as good as we can possibly make them. So we get no particular questions, just those general comments about the evolution of this as it's gone through the process. It's really, I suppose, it's really kind of our first time of formally seeing this rendition tonight, as essentially the previous renditions were withdrawn before we really acted upon them. So that's it. Okay. Very good. At this time, I don't have any questions for the applicants. So thank you. Thank you. Thank you. There is no further questions that we'll go into public hearing. So at 942, we will have a public hearing. If there are any anyone to speak for or against this application to change the zoning glassifications from agricultural district to PDSF. Yes, sir, you'd like to take the My name is Alan Dowell and I am the current owner at 6717 South FM 549 and I've been trying to sell this property for two years. Last year it was the moratorium. This year it's my associates here and they have been over backwards trying to make this thing work not only for he but for me. And in that regard, I wish to thank them for all their efforts. City Council, the planning and zoning. Art and I really appreciate everything that's gone through and been done here with everybody involved. This is a decision me and my sister made. She happens to be 75. I'm 70. She just got through with back surgery last year and I am. I have problems and fix not going to be a big And that's pretty much what I got to say. I just want to thank everybody involved. Thank you, Mr. Cal. Appreciate it. Are there any anyone else that would like to speak for or against this application? All right, at 9.42 PM, we will close the public hearing. At this time, council do we have any further discussion items for you, floor for motion. Okay, at this time, the chair will open the floor for a motion. I'll make one more comment. Again, I'll echo what you just said. Thank you for sticking with this on this process. At the advisement of our legal council, I make a motion to table this agenda item. We have a motion to table this agenda item for one council. We'll need to keep the public hearing open at this discussion carries. For the what is the what is the date? October 8th is the next. October 8th. October 8th City Council meeting. Okay, so we have a motion on the floor. Actually, table this application for zoning agricultural district to PDSF land development for SF 43. Do we have a second for this table? Cross-like it. All right, we have a second for tabling this to October 8th Council meeting so the motion moves Count the Staff miss Adele said that she will not be at that meeting So Mr. King dollars for the take over that presentation correct the staff, Ms. Adel said that she will not be at that meeting. So Mr. Dengol is for the take over that presentation correct. Okay, we have a motion to table to the October 8th. And we have a second on the floor, so the motion moves. All of those in favor say aye. Those opposed? The past is unanimously. And may I just also add, thank you for your patience. This is a big decision. There's a lot of variables to really digest inside of a re-sounding, whenever you bring on agricultural land into a residential land. So thank you. I'm sorry. I said that would have been there in the public hearing sessions. Thank you for your patience. Okay. At this time, we will move into six dot K case numbers, ETA 2 0 to 4 0 3. We are to conduct a public hearing and act on an ordinance of the city council, the city of Heat Texas, meaning title 15 lay in usage. Chapter 153 codes adopted of the City of Heat Code ordinances providing adoption of the 2021 International Building Code. I want an international building code. I won't list all of these different building codes, but obviously it encompasses a number of different building codes that need to be updated. So, Ms. Adel. Thank you, Mayor and Council. First, I wanna thank Lisa Price and Brandon Peterson, our building official and Fire Marshal. They have spent a ton of hours going through all of these amendments and ensuring that they are appropriate for yeast and I think what you'll see tonight is it's well I just want to point out as a product of a ton of work on their part. The state law does require the city that cities adopt the international building codes and the ICC, the International Code Congress Council. Thank you. Updates these codes, these model codes every three years. And we last, the last update that was adopted by the City of Heath was the 2018 iteration of the international building codes. The North Central Texas CAHP pulls together building officials from its member cities and they discuss the updated changes that the ICC puts out and they also consider local amendments. And that process can take a while. So the city's adoption falls in place after that process happens. So the city's adoption is usually delayed by one or two years after the ICC releases their code update. So that's why in 2024, we're considering 2021 updates. And these updates are very important. They help us make sure that we're keeping up with technology changes and then also best practices in the construction industry across all of the different types of building activity that we review. And it also improves or maintains the city's insurance service office rating, ISO rating. And of course, as property owners, you all know the importance of the ISO ratings. ISO also considers not only our building code and building practices, building review practices, but also fire protection and flood risk when it looks at how the city mitigates risks within our boundaries. So what we're asking tonight is approval to repeal what you see on the screen on the left column. We are currently operating under the 2017 electric code, the 2018 ICC codes and associated netcog amendments. And what we are asking approval tonight is that we adopt the 2023 National Electric Code, the 2021 ICC codes, which include all of those items that are listed there, the building code, energy conservation code, fire code, billbats code, residential code, mechanical code, plumbing code, property maintenance code, swimming pool, and spa code, and the existing building code. And then also the 2021 net hog amendments as well as some city amendments and the appendices. And the reason that's important is there are, especially with regard to our fire regulations, many of those are contained in those net cog amendments and appendices. So we did a survey of local cities just to see where we are, how we stand in regard to how our neighboring communities, which versions of the codes they are currently operating under. And adopting the 2021 ICC in the 2023 NEC brings us into alignment with most of our neighbors. In fact, we're actually going to be utilizing a newer version of the NEC than several of our neighbors. And it does set us apart from Levant and Roy City who are still operating under the codes that we're asking to repeal. So with that, I'll just point out that there is quite a bit of the 473 pages of your packet are dedicated to these very detailed specific amendments. And we can certainly address any questions that you might have if you've taken the time to review those changes. And also, I would love for Brandon to come up and just talk to you a little bit about the fire amendments because they did some quite a bit of time working on that. I'm going to give you a brief summary of what we've done with codes. Specifically, I'm going to be talking about the international fire code. Really just kind of cleaned up some of the language. Some of the biggest things going to be the fire sprinkler requirement. There's kind of a lot of gray area in there. When we require that, which are thresholds, 6000 square feet. But the way we were calculating it, we weren't calculating garages, porches, stuff like that So it really just from a staff perspective. There's a lot to when you go through plans, I mean, they say they're 77,000 square foot, but then we got to go through the map and mark out each room and determine actually what square footage is. So the way we calculate it now, it's basically anything under roof. So it will be counting the grages, the porches and stuff like that will go into the fire calculation where it will it could potentially hit the 6000 square feet threshold a little faster. Which is also just a life safety issues. We want sprinklers when we've got that much square footage. There's some cities that are even using a 5,000 square foot, but I mean, I feel comfortable keeping it at that 6,000 square foot threshold at this point. Then just some of the other local amendments has really just cleaned up some language. There's a lot of areas in the park, the code that you says has determined by the park, park, the official. So we kind of laid out, hey, this is kind of what we've looked for our city. So I mean, this document will be available on the city website. So I won't be filting so many questions. Hey, what are your requirements, city of Heath? I mean, that document will be accessible on a city website. About taking any questions, if you want to. Very good. At this time, council will ask questions of staff and council member. Yeah, I guess just to revisit the fire sprinkler calculation and the square footage requirement. So it's my understanding for the mentally, you know, the calculation historically has been based on living space because that's where the people are. They need to be protected from fire. You know, it's, I mean, I don't want my car to burn down, but that's not what the people are. Garage in a shop and whatever, a porch. So I guess I have a bit of a concern that if we now include everything under roof, which typically in Keith most houses have three carter rogges. Now we're talking what another seven, seven hundred square feet of garage space, let's say, you know, certainly six hundred square feet of garage space gets added on there, which again is not living space, it's not really occupied space. So why other than making our calculations easier on staff, why are we incorporating non-loving space into our requirements? Because again, most every house in Heath is now going to meet that threshold. Yeah, and now everybody's got to have a sprinkler, and I don't know if we want, from a disability disability standpoint that it seems like a heavy lift. Yes, sir. So I mean, the biggest thing that we're seeing is especially there are new construction where it's eventual. So I mean, they may have multiple addicts. So when they do the plans, they basically say they're unfinished, so they don't get sprint, they don't get in the calculation. Then same things with these pat these patio some of them massive. I mean, they're open patios, but then as soon as they clear the building permits fire permits, then they go and close it. So that's the biggest builders are trying to do is try to stay under that 6000 square foot threshold when eventually once we issue the permits they may easily be in a 8000 square foot home that's not covered by any far spread. So you mean after they've obtained occupancy and all the building permits, then they're coming back later and imposing it without telling us. Yeah, and it's just real, real common and like unfinished addicts. I mean, some of these houses, I mean, they had two or three of those addicts, then they turn them into like a media room. Yeah, they got you. I'd definitely appreciate that. I understand and appreciate that. I'm not sure that we should be punishing the rest of the folks that don't do that has to put in a spring lurch system. What that what that looks like. What does that burden look like? Average costs that say most of the homes is around $10,000. Yeah. All right. Very good. Hey, councilor, we've already further questions. I have concerns with that most certainly. Okay, Councilman Dodson, any questions for staff? So this would be prospective and non retrospective. That would be all new builds. Yeah, these new builds. Okay, thank you. Very good. Councilman Cross. Glad we pointed out that we're discussing it because we're going to hear about this. Oh, sure. Hey, lots. Is this something we're required to approve? Is this something we're choosing to approve? Uh, this is a big circle of members. So it's totally uh, uh, up to us or what direction we we're actually going with it. So many other folks do not use this calculation they use? Actually, yes. I've kind of did a survey just brought an immediate area. And this was the calculation that a middle scroll. I believe Wiley and Roach City were using the same calculation. Very good. We'll be under roof calculation. Yes sir. Yes sir. The under roof. With the threshold of what? Most over 6000, but rock walls, 5000 under roof. Yes sir. Under roof. Okay. Councilman Krauss, any further questions? No. Very good. Councilman Mormon. No. Council good councilman. More. No. Councilman Rufo. Yes. Along the same lines, this councilman Weber was asking about with the under roof. Now, I do have some concerns with that too, because that is changing the equation. People who are putting wanting to put on a nice big covered area behind their home, we'll say like on their patio, to sit outside or now being, there's now a consequence for that. What about someone who comes back and wants to build a larger garage onto their house? You know, we've had people who have wanted to come in and put a breezeway on the house to go to an outbuilding that's not climate controlled with that would now fall under roof because it's an extension of the same structure. Correct. They did extend over that 6,000 square foot or if it was a 50% or more remodel, they just wouldn't have triggered that Islamic. or if it was a 50% or more remodel, is when that would trigger that slumber. So if someone wanted to come in and put a outbuilding with a breezeway, they would then have to retro and it brought them over 6,000 under roof total with the outbuilding breezeway and main structure, they would have to back the retrofict. I believe the way the coach written is, local amendment is it's both though so they'd have to be a 50% or more Re-model so I mean it almost be a total regga to the house so no in that situation though it would not be required Are there any other ways other than calculating the rooms and under roof? Are there any other ways that municipalities use to calculate square footage for reasons of fire suppression? the sprinkler system, they're still actually required to sprinkle the lack of garage if it's facing like living quarters, any living space they got at least put like sidewalk fire sprinklers. So when they design those systems, they're designed for the garage as well. So I mean why are we not using that as a calculation if they're required to have fire sprinkler's in there. And are we look, maybe just a simple question, but fire, fire suppression is for we're looking at that for safety of the folks in the building as well as our rescue personnel who will be going into the homes. Yeah, I mean for residential sprinkler system, I mean it's, solely it's for life safety, for those occupants to get out of that house. And then hopefully the fire's containable, and then we can get in there and put a quick stop on it. But the residential sprinkler systems are designed to let the occupants get out, is really what they're designed for. They're not necessarily decided to extinguish the fire, but just enough time for everybody to get out of the home. You know, it's not really the same. You're belongings, it's the same life kind of thing. Right. I was wondering if it was more, it was also to protect our first responders or if it's more for the inhabitants of the home. Sounds like it's more for the inhabitants of the home to be. Yeah, that would be great. So we may suggest for them to get out and then just hopefully keep fire down lower enough for we can get in as fast as we can to totally extinguish it. A little bit of the life mechanism. Right. Why is this in time? It's okay. Yeah. It's really not very good. For the middle, which brings me that fundamental concept, the spring for system is for life, safety, for the living quarter, you know, for your living space. Not the patio out the back. So the fundamental bill in there. You need to go back in my account, so we were squirming. Yeah. It's really kidding. I did the math on mine first before I went into jail. It's great. I'm sorry. Yeah. Make it. I'm really like 10, I've got a councilman call while any question. Okay. So 10 brand to do it when it's stick. It's going to be a whole lot more to retro probably at least up. So your insinuating or actually alleging that there is some subterfuge in that they make these covered under roof spaces, but they stand underneath the requirement. So 50% remodel, that really happened. No, because you know you were shooting seven foot. Yeah. But if you did an ordinance that said if they come back within five years and enclosed, they've got to five years and enclosed, they've got to put spirituals there, that would be a deterrent to what you see as substitute. Am I right? But the problem is they're not coming in for those permits. They're just doing the work for us, no. Well, I think it's in here we can slap people who do that. Yeah, I think that's all coming up. It's going up. It's going up. It's coming up. That's good. No, it's not. It's not bad. We all thought it'd all not see. Well, I know you guys require the mass plumbers to come here because I hired one and he wanted to do it. Even for him. But these sprinkler people could also be notified that they have to come and give you notice they're doing this. And then you smack them to them, right? All right. Well, if you're worried about... Some spring from people, it's the... it's the... Yeah. It's the subcontractors that come in and should rock and insulate and, you know, and then you're going to be doing an audition. They basically come in while that's our sprick or contractors. They're done with their work. They're going to. They can't. They can't. They can't. They can't. They can't. They can't. They can't. They can't. They can't. They can't. They can't. They can't. They can't. They can't. They can't. They can't. They can't. you can see that extra space that's going to be finished out. We know what's going there and definitely the bike rod area is. That's what we say. I don't know if you were, we had an example of that. Yeah, I mean, we had thousands that come in. I was just saying just real regularly, but they'll be 5,199 square feet. No, that was kept. We must out. And I mean, me personally, if I had asked that big, I would want to sprinkle. I mean, I mean, $10,000 sounds, I mean, fairly reasonable. I think we're a lot of safety issues. I believe it's a film. I follow, follow, follow stock of everything. The government is to do so. I have followed false documents with the government activities. So you could have them say that they do not intend to eclipse the 599. And if they do, you can charge them. Not that I really want to die people, but it's fine. So right into where these homes are built, then they're sold to be by a home. It's not equipped with this sprinkler system. It's got 1,000 squirts that I'm finished at it all the way in a door and it leaves right up to it. And it makes perfect sense for you to try and make sure it's flavoring here. It's a game room, a media room, whatever. You hire contracts, you're making it into the word, put down on permits and then you hit the yaw. And we have a problem this town for people not going to burn Where's the line between I'm calcium cobalt. Do you have any further questions for staff? Okay, I Calcimer, Riveau, do you have questions for staff? Oh, it's just I don't know I was just thinking where's the line between personal responsibility like it it I Struggle when some people are doing something so everyone gets a consequence. Where should government be in it and where should government not be in it? We have a dead people free of sentence. You say, you also, I'm not a foreign official. Go ahead. Those are also the spaces if those covered forages, the garage, the ones are where a lot of them are splametable things. Yeah, I mean, that's where some of our most common fires are. I mean, other than the kitchen. All right, very well. Councilman, more or more than any questions for staff? No. Councilman Dotson. No. Councilman Krauss. No. across. Yeah. So in general, that is not an ICC recommendation that is a local government or everything that we've heard is is ICC my only question there is is is why are we looking at it implementation for 2021 and 2024. Why would not look that at prior to that be a quick question. And then I'll get to buy thoughts on this specific item. Okay, so we'll to reiterate that we did have a a local we've always had a local amendment for that but it's the way we calculated it. So we didn't calculate, we gave them exceptions of garage square footage didn't count any honing sports those areas didn't count. It's a livable space. Yes, livable condition spaces the way it was over it. Okay. Very good. Uh, Mr. Del. I thought you were asking in general why we had to have data because the the version of the code came out in 2021 and then it went through that net cog process where they bring in the building officials from their member cities and they vet all of the recommended amendments and then they talk through suggested amendments that are the net cog amendments that they add on to the ICC code version. And that process takes a year or two, depending on, it, you know, however long it takes for them to work through all of those. I mean, the stack of codes is a foot tall maybe. And then they released those and we just, it was just released when. Yeah, no, when the net call process completed. I think that we were 21. Yeah. Yeah. Okay, very well. We've had we've been intending to get this to you for about three months. So. Did you pick the longer agenda to put on a we were trying. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We tried, but Brandon was like, I can't be there until I don't have a 20. Brandon doesn't show him till the FBI. I know. Very good. Are there any other questions for staff on case numbers? ETA 202403? Okay. At 108, we will open a public hearing. Are there any parties that would like to speak for against these ordinance changes? Kevin. Kevin. Very good. Ten oh nine. The public hearing is closed on ZTA 20403. I would echo and guys, I'll tell you, I highly, I very much follow your recommendations, but I also, too, echo Councilman Weaver's concerns on the burden that this creates for someone in building a piece of property. I also echo Councilman Rufo's concerns of man, you know, where does government end to it at some point. So, so I kind of, I see it from all the different angles. At this time, the chair will open the floor for a motion. So for this, just to clarify, if we just text an element, this pertains to adopting the international code, your up to your code, it's plus updating or revising this local code as it pertains to the sprinkler population. So, the violation did not change the amount. So, the only concern that I see obviously is our local government curve. We're that fire sprinkler. When I'm being all under roof. So, is there a more, you know, kind of speaking to Paul's comment, is there a more direct feasible option to enforce, prevent, catch whatever term you want to use these people that are violating the building permitting process in order to create oversized structures that legitimately need to be sprinkled because of their living space. Is there a better way to address that in burdening everybody else with this proposed calculation based on non-living space. That's really the, it seems like we're trying to hit everybody over the head with a club to address a group that's taking advantage of us. I'd rather look for a different solution. All right, thank you, Councilman. We were, Mr. Dill. Sure, that's a great question. For a million and a half dollar home, which is pretty common out here, a $10,000 sprinkler system is quite a bit less than 1% of the total cost of the project. And I don't wanna say that $10,000 isn't $10,000. It certainly is. But I'm not aware of any other any way that we can catch people who are bent on doing something secretively. And it's it's a it's a significant NF issue that it's been contemplated for a couple of years. And we were contemplating bringing it to you as a standalone amendment to the code, and held off and brought it in as a complement to the full code amendment process. So I think that's a long answer to your question. The simple answer is no. Or it's not about your question. Unfortunately, when I hear things like significant, now I want to see some data. So, when I hear things like significant now, I want to see some data. So what is the, I hate to put you on a spot, as I didn't ask perpetually. But you know, ultimately the way I look at it is, is that, you know, $10,000, you know, I built my home five years ago and if the city said, hey, I probably would have figured out how to get it under that bar, so I didn't have to spend another $10,000 on a non-tangible item. As I would see it and life saving, yes, great. But ultimately, the two questions I have is one, how many, if the number one reason is life saving, how many people in the last year, by years, were a loss of life that this would have saved? That'd be my number one question. Here, or in here? Oh, here. That's awesome. And we didn't know what was going on, but we are having the power to add time. Okay. Have we had any loss of life that this would have saved life? Just in the last five years. And then my second question would be is that if we're doing it for the second reason of a significant amount of people that are, that are enclosing different areas of their home after the permitting process. Then what is the number there? Now I'm still leaning very heavily on this is a life-saving mechanism. That is the reason that we want to have a, you know, a governmental code that requires this. But again, what is the number of on to that as people are really well. We don't really know that, but we feel from the gossip thing, because I think we're talking about a small bit of those practices and a lot of other neighboring cities have already done to get the spread through. And then, just trying to avoid the confusion with the clients of the houses that come in that have people are raising to get to a money on the terms of the environment. Well, to be able to say no, we have to have this fact that we're living or bedroom, we have our friends who are living in the garage, meaningly, without a business of cash. So this gets a little buddies of time. Point. But we can see they not be doing it, but it appears that that would be a thing. I think more or more of that. So in that scenario, right, if we're looking for ease of use, it's kind of a different scenario than what I've heard. I'm not saying that it's not applicable, but it's a different reasoning. And if we don't have quantifiable data for loss of life that this new governmental code would assist us with saving lives because we haven't, not that one life doesn't matter, but people have the ability to put this in their home if they feel like that is going to be something that they need, right? Now, I guess my next question, and this will be a leading question is, would this assist us in potentially not losing a home in totality or losing a home and possibly ill-affecting a neighboring home. Is that a rhyme and reason on why Rockwell maybe has this rule? if you're in slow down, obviously because a carrier of ours goes back every year, it's going by, so it's a total loss. It could not be because the broads fire worked a lot harder to burn. The sprinkled campaigns that we got there, but sometimes we can add, we're talking about the impact of the earth of the houses. We could really, we could put it in the... And it's just a total loss, so we try to solve it with that. and it's a very good and go ahead. Okay, very good. So sorry, it was just being very specific Councilman Krauss. Do you have questions? Yeah, we have some we have kind of a stroke here or a benching point. Sure, makes sense to to a group of the national and international and maybe put more consideration about the local weeks. Yeah, at this time, the chair is opening the floor for, sure, the floor is open for motion. Okay, so, David, question. Sure, yeah, you could move to just pull this, this ex, this very specific local amendment out and approve the rest of it. And we can bring it back to you with more data to respond to your specific questions. Do you recall the citation, Brandon, for the welcome. I think the set between the national and international approved the corporate and the national. Well, there are some other local amendments that aren't specific to this sprinkler issue, though. So if it's if the rub is just the sprinkler. Like that. That's what we got. What else we got? Every code listed. I mean, they're all they have some local amendments. But this particular one for the sprinkler. Okay, so make a motion to approve the national and international and local amendments withholding that on fire suppression requirements for more discussion. The presidential fire is appropriate. If you'll give us just a second we'll get you this specific. Yeah, if you just tell me what to say I'll say. But as stated, give her a mic. G. Where we at. Right there. 119. OK, so I recommend we incorporate the international and national residential codes and local code modifications except for 903.2.11.9 buildings over 6,000 square feet, which would be addressed at a later time. Very well, we have a motion on the floor to approve local and national codes, exclusion of 903.2.11.9. To be reviewed at a later date, do we have a second? No second. We have a motion by Councilman Prouse for the second by Councilman Weaver, all those in favor say aye. Okay. When we're talking about the, sorry. So in these local, all the local amendments are there, are there, are most of these, are these carryovers from what we had before? Is that the only, like, are there, I just want to make sure there aren't other ones that we'd want to discuss that are in there? Like is this mostly just a carryover? Is so the fire suppression is the only one that's a change? Verbaling may changes to others are just carryovers with that kind of. Okay. Okay. Very good. That's what I was hoping. Thank you. This was part of a 2008 ordinance that they started. Okay. I'm good. So we were adjusting that. Yep. Thank you. Yeah. Yeah. Thank you. No more questions from me. Thank you, Lisa. We sure. Well, we have a motion. We have a second. All those in favor say I'm opposed passes. You land I'm silly. Thanks. Thank you. Okay. Thank you, staff. Okay. At this time, we will move into conduct and public hearing. The six dot C. We'll conduct public hearing and discussion in actual regarding ordinance number 240924b adopting the FY 2025 fee schedule for the city for the fiscal year beginning on October 1, 2024 and ending on September 30, 2025, Mr. Heirs. Great. Mayor Council, I have a four-year ordinance number 24, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 The LPLAT 2324 B schedule is said to expire September 30th, 2024. Once adopted, the F-20 box of B schedule will be back. Start in October 1st and ending September 30th, 2025. What staff what we do is on these on these beach cereals, we've done in the past and it gets together just looking at best practices and market race for different fees associated with the fees schedule and just following legal parameters and just going to be approaching maintenance on the fee schedule. The fee schedule arrives a central location for the city's largest payments fees, licensing and other services. It reestablishes the master fee schedule and adjustment withments cost for services. With the current change that we have an FY25, expect an increase in revenue, revenue is dependent on customer activity and service usage. I'll just say that. And in your agenda, you'll see the fee schedule, the only changes in the fee schedule associated with your cemetery sewer and water service charges. This is all. This was updated based on the Wooden race study as well as the increased expenses associated with North Texas, which goes to the city of Rockwall, which they impose a 10 cent increase on the water they sell to us for a thousand gallons. And then we also have an additional increase that we have to have for maintenance and operations of the city's system or system, what is the option of this ordinance and it will set the fee schedule for FY 2025. Are there any questions for ordinance or any details of the fee schedule? Yeah, very well. Well, well, questions for staff. So I had to bring up bad memory, but he adopted the fee schedule last time and we were overcharging because it was outside what was allowed and then y'all came back to us. I want to stay about six months later. So did someone sit down and correlate what we got together and decided it was a purpose of what the outer parameters were and what you can charge? Yeah, we changed, I believe we want we came before it and then it dashed to 500 if I'm not mistaken. It was the the song water inspection. Yes. So the legal founder was that we couldn't see $500, but we dropped that down to 500. So that's what we're going to go. Well, we're going to go round. There's a bad one. So I guess the follow up question would be, I assume you just extracted higher fees than you were adopted. But some period of time before you came back to us. I was also. Did we reimburse that to the people we took it from? I have a research that. I'll let that answer. Yeah. I'll be sure to say. Nothing you don't have anything to do, but, but, you know, that transparency that our bears talking bed is big. Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. Yes. There was, there hasn't in anybody that's been charged a stormwater tea or a violation fee that goes over 500. But they've all been fine. Was that the only one that was in the piece, Kevla, you came back to us and said you've made a boogey? No. Yes, that is stormwater tea. Well, there was something of tea. There last year. It was a storm water. It was the... Yes, what? Oh, it was. The tickets that were rising more than water. Okay. Well, the water was a water rationing exam. No, it was water rationing exam. It was a violation of water. But it was in our face control. Yeah. I'm not sure if you're interested in that. I'll be here. It was in our face. Yeah. And because of what the judge said. And we had to do it. Now, having those in judge. Access. We can look at. I don't know how to. Okay. All right. So I got a bottle from me. I'm happy, Jen. Barry, what you're thinking about the public walks fee? I have to go back through all of my calendars. It seems like it was like $500 and the most you could access. Access was two. And you came back to us six months afterwards and said, uh, yes, we put this fee too high. Well, all I can think about is the, is the civil when we used to charge 4% on all of the, all of the cost of the civil and when the state ball changed, the national economy, the national economy. So they not went to change that thing, but water violation fees, which is one week, like we're 250 to 500, but that's not on the fee scale. I mentioned we threw those out. All right, very well. As I see it, you've got usage rates actually going down? Well, the base rate increases. And just based on the will then, rate study, it adjusts the usage, well, it adjusts the usage rates down. If you look at the base rates right above it, they're all right'm pretty soon. At the end, you'll use the rates, you'll use the rates dropped, you know, just a few things. So it's not a full offset, but it is doing so. Very well. And I don't know why in the world are community rooms only go for $50 an hour. Little levity at 10 30 and I. Very well. Yeah, it's not everybody enjoyed that one. I'm gonna ask you any questions. Yeah, I appreciate the response on this item and the one sentence difference. I still prefer we, these notes are important. In fact, I was one of those that Akron Laurie was here incorporated the notes. So we can remember how we got there. But I think those notes on the garbage collection, unless we're gonna implement them, I think we should delete them. All right. Good, sure. It's very good. Thank you, Councilor Dodson. Questions for staff? No questions. Councilor Nguyen-Ru? Yeah, I guess two questions. One, the mayor already asked. I guess I was a little surprised to see the usage rates slightly diminish, given that water is a hot commodity. But I'm assuming that was part of that real-down projected calculation. The other question really is a little more general, which pertains to our impact fees, water meter impact fees. Those haven't changed. I understand why, because we're still working under the impact fee study that we did um, teen years ago, whatever that was. My question is, you know, given the fact that water is going to become more expensive for us either because we have to install a lot more infrastructure or we've got to drill wells or whatever it is, is it time for us to do another impact fee study for water meters given the future connections or future, sorry, future water capacity is going to be expensive for us. When do we need to do a fee study? Yeah, we're actually up. We have it on the CIP for HealthWalker25 to update the water impact. We want to study that fee. Okay. I mean, I'm not willing to include that study, but then I'm going to include the projected costs of future capacity acquisition,, whatever form that looks like, whether it's Wells or Pipelines or storage, whatever that looks like. Okay, good. And additionally, I just thought this in there as well. We'll be meeting with Jason Gray with Wilde and updated utility grade study. He has all, well, he's completed the rate study. He just wanna share the information with staff first, but he's planning to present that information to the City Council on October 8th. Give everything goes, okay. Okay, and Kenzie to that point, can we exchange those rates that any given point? Yes, we just meant that that was Councilor, I have the same. Yeah, yeah. Very good. Okay. But there's a good.

First off, start off by one. So that's an recent accomplishment in the F24 budget. In that budget, the increase of public safety pay. There was a cost aboard market pay, rate and implementation. There was a merit of paid increase or staff. We also issued the Series 2023 certificate of obligation for the public works building and town center part. We finished the advanced meter infrastructure with the shooting and distracting water usage around the city of Heath. We've upgraded the pump at the pump station to 300 horsepower. I mean, yeah, 300 horsepower pump at 1st station number one. And we've also implemented various technology improvements open go. We're also working on the GIS hosting for GIS, the GIS system. City Council budget priorities cost entamied in efficiency, low and stable property tax rate, infrastructure and assessment and management planning, and retaining hourly follow-up staff. Budget challenges, challenges where approximately 2425, that the city has been dealing with for the past few years, as well as other cities and inflation, just the increase in prices, the statutory limitations on both the revenue currently, revenue is capped at 3.5%. Increase home state exemptions, that's not said, $100 100,000 and then you have a craze of caps Which is a 10% annual cap on homestead properties and then you have a senior pre-usage exemptions You also have the Asian infrastructure and some of the legal There's just showing the the inflation rate of the last count of the years. You see $220,000 was the highest and it's slowly storming triple down. This is the property of South says valuation trend. We look at the end of the last meeting. You see the same breezes. As I said, $730,000 total. I said evaluation for the city of Beeth is just the number 3.5 billion. The tax will of value for the city is roughly a little over 10.5. Bill. Just a 24 25 budget overview. The FY 24 25 budget. Preserves an adequate bond balance as required by the city's financial policy of 30%. The city's revenues continue to improve budget appropriation for public needs, proven existing service levels and we're investing in the city's infrastructure and technology. This budget incorporates the cost of living adjustment or all of staff. We have a market adjustment for public safety staff. And if we're right, let's see if Keith Bunn will maintain and improve in the city's infrastructure. We've added a new classification and the Department of Public Safety and we've added some new positions and community development, the city's secretary's office for successions planning and public works. We've added technology improvement, some modernized and spend on operations, and there's been focus on park trails and green spaces. This is revenues by major funds, should government-authorized funds includes a general fund and a debt service fund. The variance from the FY23, 24 budget to was being adopted in FY24, 25%, 3%. And as you go down, you'll see the variance is, but in total, you have an increase revenue is the level percent. When Georgia that is contributed to your enterprise fine, you get your water and sewer, This is a breakdown of the expenditures and is going down 10% and this is maybe due to a movement to us more balanced budget and moving away from fund balance and sort of approaching that that 35% of the environment in those funds. This is a breakdown of the expenditures. Majority of your expenditures are associated with your enterprise funds. That's your water and sewer. Bubble by your gullible fund, which is your general fund and their service line. And then, uh, especially revenue funds, of course, your pad. Um, Internal service lines of the general, uh, could never place on time and until the equipment, raise your economic development corporation and your fee pernosporial beneficial for our nation. So you are the 2425 capital projects. We have city all improvements. We're planning some upgrades in the bar, they as well as some changes in community development area. We've added towns in the park to take part a trail. And then there's another trail of some of these to any parts connection among government 550. The slight meeting management system that will assist with just conducting these meetings of city council meetings and another meeting is then to push another vacation system is will be a system set up where we can set out notifications to a residential bell, different events going on in the city. YouTube, your utility capital projects, we'll see you had a huge focus on. We'll work on finishing up the AMI, meter infrastructure implementation. This will be phase two, not phase number one. Also we'll work on water will number two at council and park. Design of the three million gallon ground source tank number two design. The elevator stores tank number three design and then. We'll actually start the construction of the other great at the park. At Gar States and work on the design of the fire closed music demo. Next, there's some digital public parent. Final vote, Councillor Gold on the budget adoption. This is a record vote and implementation of the fire closed budget will begin off to the first to use the initial one. New questions for sure going to budget. Very well, thank you, Mr. Ers. At this time, council, do you have any questions for staff? We'll open the floor. I do. Councilman Dodson. I think Jay, you know, I understand why water is listed and where it's listed. I'm just saying from a presentation standpoint, an association standpoint, if you're a citizen and you're looking at the list and then takes you to the last page to find any mention of water at all, people are going to go out of their minds. Yeah. So we absolutely have to have water listed as one of the most important things that we're going to do. We're going to have to have water listed as one of the major priorities of this budget. We're wherever it falls. I understand why you have it captured here, where you have it captured, but the socialization of this is absolutely critical. Okay. Very well. Any other questions for staff? If there's no further questions at this time, thank you, Mr. Heirs. At 10.34, we will go on a quick hearing. Are there anyone here that would like to speak for or against this ordinance? Keep doing that. It's not at 10.45. The public hearing is is closed. All right guys, so the chair will open the floor for a motion. I'll make a motion to approve. Do I need to read it out? Motion to approve ordinance number 240924C of the city of heath adopting the principal year, 2025 budget for the fiscal year beginning on October 1st, 2024, and ending September 30th, 2025. All right, we have a motion on the floor to approve a stated by Councilman Mormon. Do we have a second? I second. We have a second by Councilman Dodson. So we'll call the chemical comment first. I will have a short brief. Very brief. It brief and 45. All right. So my position on this is I support a rate that supports a defensive budget to give our citizens what we need. My concern on this one is I believe that we should take the time to go back. Look at strategic criteria, prioritize those, identify levels of service in our community, prioritizations, kind of like Mr. Creed was bringing up to us, and then use those to then have everything be defensible. So every project we do, every line on, basically the projects are tied to strategic criteria. And I believe that's important. I appreciate the idea of efficiency of government. I also think we need precision and accuracy as well. So my position is I believe that that's very important that we do that for our city. So very well. I do believe that we did do a lot of that in the multiple meetings, but I do echo announcement of roof over concerns that the budget session cycles need to be a bottoms up approach. And I'd like to see a different approach moving forward, but in general, I am very thankful for the hard work that you guys have done. So it's a balancing act to make that statement. Okay, very well. So roll call vote at this time. I'd like to make a comment, too. Councilman Colwell, please do. You know, I have no problem with what I've arrived at. And I think a lot of hard work has been done. And when we had, when I first voted on a budget, I hadn't been on the council very long. I've had a couple of discussions with members of our staff. I think there's been a mentality here that our staff is so conscientious and they know that we're a growing city and it has been at an unsustainable rate and they've been using, as my husband would say, the universal tool of duct tape and anything else to hold things together. And so we had things happen that appeared as if we didn't know what we're doing. And it couldn't be further from the truth. And one person who left here, who Larry, he gave up weekends, he stood out in storms and I think we just wore him out. So what I'd like to have, and I agree with Paul completely, and I'm not faulting staff. It's what your marching nurse have been. some meetings on you bring us what the problem is and you give us optimal and you give us a Little bigger panoply of problems that are limit and that's all I have to say very good. Thank you councilman Colwell At this time we'll do a rule called vote. There's no other comments Very well. Councilman Krauss. We have a motion. We do have a motion. We do have a motion.

Hope we're not giving up on that as far as the letting roads pay for growth and let the citizens pay for what they've paid for and lived in, I'll be here almost 30 years. But we have had some crucial items come off the road, water, number one, as Scott mentioned.
