>> DO WE HAVE WORD ON WHAT THIS COULD COST OF THE PUBLIC COUNTY

WAS DOING THIS WORK? >> I DON'T KNOW IF WE GOT THESE QUOTES I KNOW THE COUNTY WAS GOING TO BE OUT THERE TYPICALLY YOU WOULD NORMALLY GET A BETTER DEAL AND THEY ARE ALREADY OUT THERE FOR DOING THAT WORK AS WELL.

VERSUS COME AND GET ON MIXING ASPHALT.

>> THE ONLY REASON I'M ASKING IS EVERY TAXPAYING RESIDENT OF MIDLOTHIAN IS ALSO A TAXPAYER OF ELLIS COUNTY IF WE HAVE A LOCAL AGREEMENT WITH THEM ANY CONSIDERATION THAT THESE FOLKS ARE ESSENTIALLY BEING TAXED TWICE FOR THE SAME WORK? NOT THE SAME AMOUNT WE WOULD SEE FROM PRIVATE CONTRACT.

>> I DON'T HAVE THE AMOUNT ON THE REASON WHY THIS ONE IS BEING DONE IS BECAUSE THE COUNTY WAS OUT THERE SO THE THOUGHT WAS ECONOMY SCALE AND GET A BETTER PRICE.

The property is located at 305 West Avenue C. (Case No. M02-2026-023).]

ONTO ITEM F THIS EVENING CONSIDER RIGHT OF WAIT USE LICENSE AND HOLD HARMLESS FOR EIGHT ON STREET PARKING SPACES ALONG WEST AVENUE C FOR RESIDENTIAL AND NONRESIDENTIAL USES WITHIN A COMMUNITY RETAIL ZONING DISTRICT AND AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE SAID AGREEMENT.

THE PROPERTY IS LOCATED AT 305 WEST AVENUE C.

WE WILL TAKE COMMENTS FIRST AND THEN WILL HAVE DIALOG WITH STAFF

AS NEEDED. >> CHRISTINA CHAMBERS.

>> WELCOME IF YOU COME FORWARD STATE YOUR NAME FOR THE RECORD AND WHETHER OR NOT YOU LIVE WITHIN THE CITY AND 3 MINUTES.

>> MY NAME IS CHRISTINA CHAMBERS I DO LIVE WITHIN THE CITY OF MIDLOTHIAN. THANK YOU, COUNSEL FOR TAKING MY COMMENTS. THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 305 AVENUE WEST C IS COMMERCIAL AND HAS THE RIGHT TO OPERATE AS SUCH HOWEVER, THE PROPERTY OWNER IS ASKING TO EXCEED WHAT HAS ALREADY BEEN GRANTED AND ENTER INTO AN EASEMENT AGREEMENT.

THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST THAT HAS BEEN TURNED FROM A RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY, THE PROPOSED USE APPEARS TO GO BEYOND THE ORIGINAL AND INTENDED USE OF THE PROPERTY INCREASED ACTIVITY OR TRAFFIC OR ACCESS IN THIS AREA WITH A NEGATIVELY IMPACT SAFETY AND RESIDENTIAL USE. APPROVAL MAY SET AN UNDESIRABLE PRECEDENT FOR FUTURE USE OF CITY EASEMENT IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.

WHILE I RESPECT THE CITY'S AUTHORITY OVER ITS EASEMENTS APPROVAL OF THIS REQUEST WILL PLACE AN UNREASONABLE BURDEN ON ADJACENT HOMEOWNERS MATERIALLY AFFECT THE CHARACTER AND SAFETY OF THE AREA. THE CITY HAS ENGAGED WITH THE DOWNTOWN DESIGN STANDARDS AGREEMENT AND IS CURRENTLY ACTIVELY WORKING ON THIS. THE CITY OWES A FIDUCIARY DUTY TO ITS CITIZENS TO COMPLETE THIS AGREEMENT THAT IT HAS ENTERED INTO BEFORE AGREEING TO SOMETHING THAT MAY NOT WORK WITHIN THE PLAN. I WOULD LIKE TO ASK FOR A SITE PLAN FOR TRAFFIC AS WELL AS IF THERE IS ANY THOUGHT ABOUT HOW TO HOLD THIS HARMLESS AND PLAYING TO NEIGHBORS AND NOT JUST THE CITY I BELIEVE THERE IS MUCH MORE WORK TO CONSIDER TO BE

-- BEFORE THIS IS VOTING ON. >> THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS

ANY OTHER SPEAKERS? >> GARY'S.

>> WELCOME PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME FOR THE RECORD AND THEN YOU

WILL HAVE 3 MINUTES AS WELL. >> 316 WEST AVENUE C VERY CLOSE I WANT TO THANK YOU GUYS FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK THIS EVENING I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE A REQUEST CONSIDERING THAT IT BE REMOVED AND SCHEDULED FOR DISCUSSION POSSIBLY PUBLICLY.

THIS REQUEST LEAVES A LOT OF QUESTIONS TO THE REQUEST FOR PARKING. I UNDERSTAND THIS MIGHT SEEM LIKE A RICH REQUEST TO SOME FOLKS.

TO SOME PROPERTY OWNERS THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IS NOT NECESSARILY A FAIR ADDITION UNDER THE RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITY JOINING THIS LOCATION. IT BRINGS UP A LOT OF QUESTIONS REGARDING EXISTING AND POSSIBLE FUTURE USE OF THIS LOCATION.

THROUGH MY OWN RESEARCH I WAS LOCATED TO THE REAR VIEW OF THE GUIDELINES ON FILE WITH THE EXISTING ZONING AND FROM WHAT I CAN SEE I COULD BE COMPLETELY WRONG CORRECT ME IF I AM BUT IT

[00:15:01]

SHOWS FOR HIDDEN PARKING ON HER TWO-WAY STREET THIS IS ONLY AN 18-FOOT STREET IT IS A VERY NARROW.

I'M JUST LOOKING FOR SOME EXPLANATION AND CONSIDERATION IF THERE IS FUTURE PLANS SURROUNDING THE DIFFERENCE.

FOR THIS REQUEST TO BE PLACED ON SINGLE ONE TIME USE OF CONSENT AGENDA SEEMS TO BE A VERY QUICK DECISION WITH NO INPUT FROM THE FOLKS THAT COULD POSSIBLY BE IMPACTED.

CONSIDERATION OF THIS IS GREATLY APPRECIATED THANK YOU.

>> THANK YOU. >> ANDREA WALTON.

>> WELCOME, ANDREA. IF YOU COME FORWARD AND STATE YOUR NAME FOR THE RECORD AND WHETHER OR NOT YOU LIVE IN THE

CITY PREMISES AS A WELL. >> THANK YOU JUST TO SHARE A LITTLE BIT OF HISTORY FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO DO NOT KNOW THIS HAS BEEN A WALTON PROPERTY FOR 50 YEARS MR. MAJORS WHOSE NAME IS ON EVERY FIRE TRUCK AND A FEW BUILDINGS AROUND TOWN HE BUILT IT BACK IN 1917 AND HE LIVED THERE AND RAISED HIS FAMILY THERE. MISS BARCLAY AFTER HIM BECAME THE SECOND OWNER OF THE PROPERTY AND SHE SUBLETTED EVERY SINGLE POSSIBLE SQUARE INTO THAT PROPERTY SHE LIVED DOWNSTAIRS AND HAD EVERY ROOM RENTED OUT. SHE EVEN DID SOME REDESIGNED THAT WE HAD TO DO AND WE HAVE BEEN FORTUNATE TO MEET PEOPLE THAT LIVE THERE AND EVEN RENTED OUT THE HONEYMOON SWEET.

IT BECAME THE WALTON HOUSE AND WE APPRECIATE AND LOVE OLDER TOWN FOR ITS HISTORICAL ESTHETIC AND VALUE.

THE FACADE OF THE HOUSE WE WANT TO MAINTAIN.

WE ARE SIMPLY JUST ASKING FOR WHAT IT MEANS WITH CODE WITH APPLICATION FORWARD THE PARKING LOT.

THREE OF THEM ARE WITHIN 100 YARDS.

WE ARE NOT CHANGING THE USE OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD WE ARE NOT CHANGING THE CHARACTER OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND OUR GOAL IN PRESERVING THE HISTORIC FACADE IS THERE ARE CARRIAGES WHERE PEOPLE USED TO RIDE THEIR HORSES OUT AND WE WOULD WORK WITH THE ARCHITECT AND TRY TO MAINTAIN THAT AS WE MOVE FORWARD.

WE CURRENTLY HAVE LIGHT INDUSTRIAL COMMERCIAL DISTRICT BEHIND US SO WE HAVE TRAFFIC THAT COMES THROUGH THAT DROPS OFF THE TWO BUSINESSES I SAY ON A WEEKLY BASIS.

AND THEN WE HAVE TRAFFIC THAT CUTS THROUGH THERE ANY TIME BRIDGE IS CLOSED WHICH IS RIGHT THERE ALSO IN OUR AREA.

SO I DO NOT SEE A DIFFERENCE IN TRAFFIC SPECIFICALLY WHERE MY OFFICE IS LOCATED RIGHT NOW. THE MAJORITY OF WHAT WE DO IS DONE BY PHONE. SO I DO NOT KNOW THAT THAT PARKING LOT WILL HAVE MUCH USE OTHER THAN THE RATE OF FIVE PEOPLE A DAY SO I DO NOT THINK THERE IS ANY CONCERN FOR TRAFFIC THAT WOULD BE FURTHERMORE THAN WHAT ALREADY HAPPENS IN AN ATTORNEY'S OFFICE THAT IS 100 YARDS AWAY.

I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND YOUR CONSIDERATION AND YOUR COMMITMENT BECAUSE I KNOW ITS WHEAT FACE GROWTH IS A CITY THAT IS A CHALLENGE FOR EVERYBODY THANK YOU.

>> JUST FOR CLARITY HE WHERE THE APPLICANT.

>> I AM THE APPLICANT AT 305 WEST AVENUE SAY.

>> STAY CLOSE IN CASE THERE IS QUESTIONS THAT ARISE.

OKAY AND THERE WERE SOME ONLINE SUBMITTALS AND OPPOSITIONS FOR THE OVERALL COUNT. SIX AND OPPOSITION SPEAKERS.

>> I HAVE A HIDDEN SLIDE WITHIN THE OKAY SO THIS REQUEST CAME TO US A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO THEY ARE SIMPLY WANTING TO PUT EIGHT PARTY SPACES IN FRONT OF THE WEST AVENUE SEE AND THEY WILL BE AIDED BY TEN SQUARE FEET OR SORRY EIGHT BY TEN AND THE APPLICANT IS WANTING TO DO ESSENTIALLY A PROFESSIONAL ARE ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICE WITHIN THE HOME AND CURRENTLY HIS OWN COMMUNITY SO WE COULD ALSO DO THAT RIGHT NOW.

>> JUST FOR CLARITY WE ARE SIMPLY TALKING PARKING TONIGHT CORRECT. I DID NOT KNOW WHO IS ANSWERING QUESTIONS BUT SO JUST TO BE VERY CLEAR THEY COULD OPEN THIS I KNOW WE ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT ZONING BUT THEY ARE OPEN FOR BUSINESS TOMORROW WITH THE FIVE EMPLOYEES PARKING ON THE

EXISTING DRIVEWAY. >> COMMUNITY RETAIL.

>> OKAY. >> IS THERE AN ORDINANCE OR RULE

[00:20:04]

THAT STOPS THESE FIVE EMPLOYEES FROM PARKING?

>> NOT THAT I'M AWARE OF SO PARKING ON THE GRASS EVERYWHERE NOT THAT I DON'T BELIEVE THERE IS IN ACCORDANCE.

>> I CAN SEE FROM GOOGLE EARTH THAT THERE IS PEOPLE DOING IT ALL OVER THE PLACE. SO IN THEORY SHE CAN OPEN THIS BUSINESS WITH THESE FIVE EMPLOYEES USING THE EXISTING DRIVEWAY OR WITH THE PARKING LOTS APPROVAL THAT'S FINE ONLY

TWO QUESTIONS. >> ONE MORE QUESTION VERY SIMILAR BUT AS LONG AS YOU ARE NOT IMPEDING THE ADA SIDEWALK THAT YOU CAN PARK AND CITY RIGHT AWAY THROUGHOUT OLDER TOWN.

I MEAN DATE CONVERSION PORTIONS ALMOST ALL COMMERCIAL AND RETAIL. SO I GUESS REALLY WHAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT TONIGHT IS DO THEY HAVE THE RIGHT TO PAY PARKING.

>> YES RIGHT AWAY THERE. >> AND DID REFERENCE THERE IS THREE OTHER LOCATIONS WITHIN A HUNDRED YARDS THAT HAVE SIMILAR AGREEMENTS IN PLACE THAT REQUEST AVENUE SEE AND NORTH

EIGHT. >> I BELIEVE WEST AVENUE SEE AND

NORTH. >> AND IT LOOKS RIGHT THERE SEVENTH AND AVENUE SEE THERE IS MAYBE SOME GRAVEL OR SOMETHING THAT IS PARKED THERE IN THE CITY RIGHT AWAY.

>> YES. >> AND THEN A LITTLE BIT FURTHER DOWN THE LITTLE BIT BOTTOM OF THE FRAME THAT APPEARS TO BE IS THAT LICENSE OR DID THEY JUST PAY FOR IT AND PARKED THERE

WITHOUT ASKING? >> I THINK THAT HIS MULTIFAMILY UNIT SO I ASSUME THEY HAVE A LICENSE.

>> LOOKING GREAT THERE AT THE CORNER OF AVENUE SEE AND NORTH SIX WHICH I GUESS ITS KIND OF CAT CORNER TO THIS PROPERTY IT APPEARS THERE IS A LOT OF GRAVEL IN OUR CITY RIGHT AWAY WHICH IS

PROBABLY UTILIZED FOR PARKING? >> I'M NOT SURE IF THEY HAVE

THAT RIGHT AWAY. >> TO PUT DOWN ANY KIND OF GRAVEL, ASPHALT, CONCRETE, YOU WOULD HAVE TO LITERALLY HAVE THE

RIGHT OF WAY. >> YES, SIR,.

>> OTHERWISE THAT SHOULD BE REMOVED.

>> OKAY THANK YOU, SIR. >> I GUESS MY QUESTION WOULD BE FOR MS. WALTON THIS IS NOT A NEW BUSINESS, THIS IS A NEW BUSINESS

YOU ARE STARTING? >> I DID NOT UNDERSTAND THAT QUESTION. IT IS NOT A NEW BUSINESS I HAVE BEEN LIVING IN THIS RESIDENTS FOR 30 YEARS I HAVE MET WITH PEOPLE OCCASIONALLY HERE. THE BUSINESS IS CURRENTLY IN OF THE LOT ROAD SO WE ARE IN LIKE A TWO-YEAR PROCESS OF MOVING AND I GUESS I WOULD SAY THAT AS WE LIVE THERE FOR 30 YEARS WE HAVE HAD CHURCH GROUPS, YOUTH GROUPS, WE HAD URBAN ELEMENTARY THREE DIFFERENT KIDS ALL OF FIFTH-GRADE COME OVER AND CELEBRATE WE HAVE HAD SOCCER PARTIES VOLLEYBALL PARTIES LAST FRIDAY NIGHT WE HAD A BUNGLED GROUP OF LADIES PTA PEOPLE.

COLLECTIVELY ALL OF THE CARS THAT HAVE BEEN THERE IN THE LAST 30 YEARS THAT HAVE BEEN DOWN THE STREET IN THE DRIVEWAY IN FRONT OF THE HOUSE PROBABLY ARE MORE THAN WHAT WOULD BE THERE IN THE

NEXT 20 YEARS. >> AND WHEN YOU HAVE PEOPLE COME OTHER THAN IT BEING BACK-TO-BACK IN THE DRIVEWAY THEY WOULD'VE PULLED INTO THE GREEN SPACE NOW IN FRONT OF THE SIDEWALK?

>> AND FACE THE HOUSE YES. WE USUALLY PARK OUR CAR THAT WAY TO SHOW THEM HOW TO PARK SO IT IS CONDUCIVE FOR EVERYBODY AND KEEPS THEM OFF OF NEIGHBORS YARDS.

TO THE NORTH'S U.S. HIGHWAY 287 ALONG WITH U.S. HIGHWAY 287 EASTBOUND SERVICE ROAD WHICH DOES NOT HAVE A ZONING OR FUTURE LAND USE DESIGNATION TO THE SOUTH IS PD 118 WHICH IT IS A PART OF AND THEN IT PD 181 TO THE EAST THIS AGRICULTURAL AND PD 181 AND THEN TO THE WEST IS PD 79.

THIS PROPOSED USE FOLLOWS MULTIPLE OF THE GOALS AND STRATEGIES WITHIN THE GUIDING OUR FUTURE MIDLOTHIAN 2025 INCLUDING FOCUSING ON MAJOR THOROUGHFARES AS IMPORTANT ENTRYWAYS INTO THE CITY AND HAVING A GOOD IMPRESSION WITH ENHANCED DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS AND IT TALKS OR IT FOLLOWS THE GOALS THAT TALK ABOUT TOPIC INTO THE EMPLOYMENT AND PROMOTING

U.S. HIGHWAY 287 SERVICE ROAD TO THE NORTH OF THE PROPERTY IS CLASSIFIED AS EXISTING SERVICE ROAD AND THE SOUTH 14TH STREET IS DESIGNATED AS A MINOR THOROUGHFARE ARTERIAL OFF THE 95 HIGHWAY. AND THEN HERE IS THE LANDSCAPE PLAN SO AS YOU CAN SEE WELL ENOUGH HERE THERE IS AROUND THE DUMPSTER AND THEY ARE MEETING ALL OF OUR LANDSCAPING REGULATIONS WITH THE ORDINANCE. THEY ARE ASKING FOR A VARIANCE FOR THE PARKING SO OUR ZONING ORDINANCE ALLOWS A DEVELOPMENT TO EXCEED 25% ABOVE THE PARKING FOR THEIR USE WITH THE PARKING RATIOS THEY ARE REQUIRED TO HAVE A MINIMUM OF 15 SPACES THE MAXIMUM PARKING THEY ARE ALLOWED TO HAVE HIS 19 SPACES THEY ARE PROPOSING 44 SPACES TO ACCOMMODATE PARKING AND TWO SPACES TO EXAMINE THE IDEAS THAT EACH CHILD WOULD HAVE A PARKING SPACE FOR BOTH OF THEM AND THEY HAVE REQUIREMENTS FOR THEIR CLINICS THAT ARE REQUIRED FOR THEIR ZONING ORDINANCE.

>> AND ARE EXISTING RECOMMENDATIONS.

>> WE DEFINITELY TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION THE VARIANCES THEY ARE ASKING FOR AND WHAT KIND OF VARIANCES THEY ARE ASKING FOR.

>> THAT IS THE POLICY THAT THE COUNCIL ADOPTED REVIEWING SOME BUILDING WITHIN THAT PD BASED ON RECOMMENDATIONS.

>> EVERYTHING WITH A FLAT ROOF. >> UP THE WHOLE THING AT LEAST AT THE FRONT. AND SO CONSISTENT WITH THE ENTIRE COMPLEX. MAKE SURE THEY VISIT THEM PLENTY OF TIMES. MATCHES CONSISTENT WITH THE ENTIRE CONFLICT. SO WHEN STUFF COMES UP WITH RECOMMENDATIONS I AM JUST CURIOUS.

AND MORE ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN. >> THAT IS THE PART I'M STRUGGLING WITH. DOES THAT MATCH ANYTHING THE

ARCHITECTURE NOT THE SAME. >> OTHER CORPORATIONS THAT HAVE COME IN WE HAVE HAD VERY LONG CONVERSATIONS FOR THE CONVONOW AND SO FOR A BUSINESS THAT WANTS TO COME IN ON NINTH STREET WE TALK ABOUT HOW THEY ARE NOT MATCHING THE NEIGHBORHOOD I MEAN I WOULD LOVE COOK CHILDREN'S HERE BUT I'M STRUGGLING WITH WHY WOULD WE ALLOW THIS WHEN IT DOES NOT FIT AT ALL WITH EVERYTHING ELSE AROUND IT LIKE EVERY OTHER BUSINESS AND BUILDING WAS MADE IT TO FIT THAT SAME STYLE COLOR SCHEME EVERYTHING.

>> THEY SAY THE EXTERIOR OF THE STRUCTURES SHALL BE DESIGNED IN CONSTRUCTION TO SUBSTANTIALLY SHOW BUILDING ELEVATIONS AS EXHIBIT C1 AND THAT IS ARTICULATION ON THAT BUILDING TO

THE SOUTH. >> TO MY KNOWLEDGE UNLESS I AM NOT SEEING IT THERE IS NOT A SINGLE BUILDING THERE THAT HAS A PITCH GROUP WHICH WHATEVER WE WANT TO CALL THE AMOUNT OF ARCHITECT BUT THEIR PITCH AND EVERYTHING OUT IS FLAT OUT.

>> THERE IS A VERY OBVIOUS THEME AND TONE THROUGHOUT THAT ENTIRE

DEVELOPMENT. >> I COULD MAY BE GET PAST THE

BLUE. >> THE REST OF THE COMPLEX.

>> ONE OF THE THREE PIECES. >> A LOT MORE SINGULARLY.

>> EVERY OTHER BUILDING HAS THE ORANGE I MEAN WE HAVE A LOT OF BUSINESSES IN THERE THAT HAVE BRANDS AND BRAND COLORS THAT THEY ARE NOT DOING. HAVE THAT DEVELOPMENT.

ALLOW THAT IN ONE SPOT. >> I THINK THESE THREE.

IT'S THE LACK OF A BETTER TERM IS REALLY RELATIVELY MINOR.

AND IF YOU LOOK AT EVERYTHING. IT IS A RELATIVELY MINOR PART OF

[00:50:09]

THE OVERALL BUILDING BUT I KNOW SITE WISE IT IS A VERY PROMINENT

>> I THINK THAT IS PROBABLY MORE TERMITE CONCERNS.

[LAUGHTER] -- MORE TO MY CONCERNS.

[LAUGHTER] >> I REMEMBER WHEN THE ORIGINAL PD WAS DONE AND THERE WAS SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF REVISIONS AND DISCUSSIONS ON A THIRD TOWN PALLETS AND ALL OF THOSE ELEMENTS AGAIN STAYING OUT OF MY WHEELHOUSE BUT THE CHALLENGE FOR ME IS LOOKING AT THE OVERALL YOU KNOW SIDES AND BACK I MEAN EVERY BUILDING IN THERE IT HAS 360 YARDS THE WAY IT IS DESIGNED IT LOOKS ALMOST AS THE SAME AT THE BACK AS IT WAS FROM THE FRONT AS FAR AS ARTICULATION AS FAR AS SOME OF DO YOU KNOW MADE IT BUILDING THAT THEY WANT TO CREATE DIFFERENT LEVELS OF DEPTH NO MATTER WHICH WAY YOU LOOK AT THE BUILDING I MEAN IT TO ME I LOOK AT THIS UNFORTUNATELY IT IS WITH THREE PYRAMIDS ON TOP I THINK. SO I WOULD FOR ME BEING COLOUR-BLIND I WOULD TAKE EVERYBODY ELSE'S WORD BUT DOES THE ACTUAL OVERALL ARCHITECTURE OF THE BUILDING DOES IT PAY HOMAGE TO AND CAN FORM TO THE ESTHETICS AND ARTICULATION FOR THE REST OF THAT DEVELOPMENT? AND THEN ARGUING AGAINST MYSELF REAL QUICK I DON'T KNOW WITH EVERYBODY HAS DRIVEN DOWN GEORGE HOPPER AWARE THE MID TOWN HAS THE BEAUTIFUL YOU KNOW FRONT PORCHES AND ALL OF THAT STUFF AND THERE IS A BUILDING THERE THAT DOES NOT LOOK LIKE THE OTHER ONES AND IT IS THE MORE ORTHODOX WHEN IT WAS FIRST BUILT I DROVE BY THAT AND SAID SOMEBODY MUST HAVE BEEN ASLEEP HOW DID WE GET A BEACH SURF SHACK AND THE MIDDLE OF THIS YOU KNOW THIS STYLE THIS CRAFTSMAN STYLE PROJECT YOU KNOW I HAVE BEEN DRIVING PAST THAT THING FOR A LONG TIME AND AS THAT MATURED AROUND IT AND KIND OF ALMOST FITS BECAUSE IT DOES NOT FIT YOU KNOW MAY BE JUST BECAUSE HAVE DRIVEN BY IT SO MUCH BUT NOW I THINK IT ADDS SOME SALT SO AGAIN I AM COLOUR-BLIND SO I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT THE COLORS OF THINGS I'M JUST TALKING ABOUT YOU KNOW SOMETIMES A LITTLE IN CONTINUITY IN SMALL DOSES ACTUALLY CHANGE EVERYTHING BUT I THINK THERE ARE SOME VALID CONCERNS HERE.

>> I THINK THE APPLICANT WOULD LIKE TO SAY A COUPLE THINGS.

>> COME ON UP. >> MICHAEL SMITH WITH COOK CHILDREN'S I WANT TO THANK YOU GUYS SO FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE HERE WE ARE EXCITED ABOUT BEING PART OF THIS COMMUNITY AND SERVING THIS COMMUNITY BUT DID WANT TO CLARIFY FOR ALL OF YOU IF YOU SEE OUR LOGO ACTUALLY IT HAS THREE PEAKS ON IT SO IT IS A VITAL PART OF WHO WE ARE AND WHO WE SERVE THAT OUR PATIENTS ARE ALWAYS ENTERING BELOW. SO IF YOU LOOK AT ANY OF OUR BUILDINGS YOU WILL SEE THE THREE PEAKS IT SERVES AS A BIG WAY FINDING PEACE APPEARANCE AND FOR OUR PATIENTS AND ALSO BECOME SOMETHING THAT IS RECOGNIZED AND KNOWN SO EVEN OUR PATIENTS AS THEY ARE DRIVING AROUND TOWN THEY CAN DRIVE BY AND SAY THAT IS MY DOCTOR BECAUSE THEY KNOW THOSE THREE PEAKS FROM THAT PART OF IT THE OTHER PART OF THAT IS AS I SAID IT ALSO ACTS AS A WAY FINDING GOES WELL FOR EMS SO IF WE HAVE TO CALL FOR EMS TO COME TO OUR FACILITIES IT IS A VERY EASY TO FIND OUR COLORS ARE NOT AS BROAD AS THEY ARE HERE AT THESE RENDERINGS ARE SET SO JUST TO CLARIFY AS WELL SO THEY ARE MUCH BRIGHTER DID SHARE SOME OF THEM THAT SHOWS THE COLORS AND THE ANGLE THAT WE ARE ABLE TO SEE IN ADVANCE FEEL SO AS FAR AS THE EARTH TONES YES THE BUILDINGS HAVE THAT THEY DO HAVE THE SAME EARTH TONES THAT ARE INSIDE OF THE DEVELOPMENT NOW BESIDES THE ORANGE AND THE DARKER BRICK COLORS BUT WE STILL WANT TO MAINTAIN THE BLUE PEAKS BECAUSE THAT IS WHO WE ARE AND HOW PEOPLE FIND US ON HOW PEOPLE KNOW WHO WE ARE AS WELL. I THINK THAT FITS INTO OTHER THINGS THAT YOU GUYS HAVE IN THE COMMUNITY AND THINGS LIKE THAT BUT THIS IS ONE THING THAT WE WILL STAND ON THAT THE BLUE PEAKS ARE A PRIORITY FOR US AND IF YOU ASK US TO REMOVE IT THAT

[00:55:05]

IS NOT SOMETHING THAT WE ARE WILLING TO DO.

>> THANK YOU ANY QUESTIONS FOR THAT?

>> JUST A COUPLE QUESTIONS ONE IS WHAT IS THE PEAK ELEVATION I MEAN NUMBERS MY GLASSES ARE NOT DOING WELL HOW HIGH ARE WE TALKING ABOUT THESE PYRAMIDS STAND DOWN LIKE.

>> SO YOU ARE TALKING MAY BE THE TALLEST ONE IN THE CENTER IS 7-FOOT TALL WE DO NOT HAVE THE ELEVATION HEIGHT ON THERE BUT THE DOOR RIGHT BELOW IT IS 7-FOOT TALL THAT IS ABOUT THE SAME HEIGHT AS THAT DOOR SO I THINK THEY ARE MORE PRONOUNCED BECAUSE THE COLOR THEY ARE IN THE PAGE THAT THEY STAND OUT I DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN PULL BACK TO THE ENTRANCE.

>> TO GO BACK THE ONE OF MANSFIELD.

>> SO YOU CAN SEE THEY DO EXIST IN MANSFIELD AND PROBABLY NOT AS PROMINENT AS THE IMAGES ARE IN THE RENDERING BECAUSE YOU ARE LOOKING AT THE BUILDING STRAIGHT ON WITHOUT LANDSCAPING AND EVERYTHING ELSE SO THESE ARE ACTUALLY TALLER THAN THE ONES

THAT WILL BE HERE. >> FROM A DISTANCE IT CAN ALMOST LOOK LIKE IT STILL HAS THE VARIOUS.

>> IT DEFINITELY STANDS OUT. >> HAS ABOUT WHAT FOR BUILDINGS OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT SO THIS WOULD BE ONE BUILDING THAT WOULD STAND OUT DIFFERENT FROM THE OTHERS.

>> SO THE OTHER BUILDINGS THAT ARE BEHIND US.

>> ORIGINAL. >> LET ME ASK YOU A QUESTION ABOUT THE PARKING THE VARIOUS QUESTION ABOUT THE SPACE WE HAVE THE MAXIMUM WE SAY AT MAXIMUM 19 AND VARIOUS REQUEST, OKAY, I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE I RODE IT DOWN RIGHT BECAUSE THAT WAS A SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE WANTING TO TALK ABOUT IS THAT PARKING GOING TO APPLY TO ANY KIND OF A FUTURE.

OR I WONDER WILL IT BE JUST FOR THAT.

>> IT IS JUST FOR THAT BUILDING SO THAT IS BASED UPON THERE IS 12 EXAM ROOMS SO THAT PUTS US AT 24 AND THEN FOR EVERY DR. WHICH THIS CLINIC WILL HAVE FOUR DOCTORS AND THEIR IT'S THREE MORE STAFF OF THEM SO THAT IS ANOTHER 16 AND THEN THE ADA

PARKING SPOTS ON TOP OF THAT. >> IF I UNDERSTAND THIS CORRECTLY THAN THESE TWO VARIANCES OR THE QUESTION IS PART OF THE BRANDING AND THE POLICY OF THE HOSPITAL.

>> OF COOK CHILDREN'S AS A WHOLE SYSTEM.

IF WE PROVIDED PARKING FOR THE CITIES OF CURRENT STANDARDS WE WOULD HAVE PEOPLE PARKING IN THE GRASS.

>> AND WE HAVE THE LARGEST POSITION AT WORK IN THE STATE PROBABLY IN THE COUNTRY FROM PREETI AT TRICKS SO WE DEFINITELY HAVE A LOT OF EXPERIENCE AND WHAT OUR CLINICS THE AND THE NUMBER OF PATIENTS IT IS NOT LIKE A TYPICAL MEDICAL CLINIC WHERE FOR EXAMPLE I MAY GO AND I AM THE ONLY ONE THAT GOES SO IF WE HAVE A CHILD GOING AGAIN WE MAY HAVE MULTIPLE VEHICLES BECAUSE WE HAVE MOM AND DAD COMING TO THAT APPOINTMENT BECAUSE THEY ARE BOTH COMING FROM WORK AND THEN WE HAVE THE PATIENT WAITING IN THE WAITING ROOM TO GO INTO THE EXAM ROOM NEXT WITH THEIR PARENTS AND THEN OF COURSE WE HAVE A SPOT FOR EACH ONE OF OUR EMPLOYEES THERE SO WE HAVE AN OFFICE MANAGER IN THIS CLINIC WE WOULD HAVE THREE AT RECEPTION AND CHECK OUT ON TOP OF THAT OFFICE MANAGER AND THEN WE HAVE TWO INMATES OR

NURSES FOR DOCTOR. >> IN BLUE YOU TRIED TO BRING GREEN IN YOU HAVE A PROBLEM. [LAUGHTER]

>> I KIND OF AGREE WITH THE POINT OF A LITTLE BIT OF SALT IN THE BROTH TO THIS END I DO THINK THAT THE SITE SELECTION MATTERS HERE IT IS NOT SET BACK WITHIN THE DEPTHS OF THIS DEVELOPMENT WHETHER IT IS ON THE FOREFRONT ON THAT HARD CORNER OF THE SERVICE ROAD WHAT IS THAT 14TH? AM I READING THAT RIGHT? THERE WE GO 14TH. I DID NOT HAVE A BIG ISSUE WITH THAT AS FAR AS THE COLOR GOES A WHOLE LOT OF BLUE ACROSS THE STREET THAT WOULD TIE INTO JUST MY PERSONAL OPINION WHO IS NEXT?

GO AHEAD. >> LOOKING AT THE LANDSCAPE

[01:00:02]

PLAN, WHICH I THINK IS WHAT YOU HAVE ON THE SCREEN RIGHT THERE.

SO THE -- TALKING EARLIER ABOUT KIND OF THE ARCHITECTURE PRESENCE THROUGHOUT THE REST OF THE PROJECT.

OH, WE HAVE -- I THINK WE DID THE BUT IT HAD SOME LONG LULLS IN THERE. AND INSTEAD OF HAVING THEM KIND OF ZIGZAG ALL THE WAY BACK, WHAT WE DID WAS ASK THEM TO DO SOME MORE ENHANCED PERIMETER LANDSCAPING.

SOME MORE OF TREES, AND THAT'S WHAT I'M LOOKING AT.

THIS LANDSCAPE PLAN. I SEE SOME STUFF BY THE PARKING LOT. THERE'S A LOT OF GREEN FIELD TO THE SOUTH, TO THE -- WHAT WOULD BE THE EAST END.

TO THE NORTH ARE THE OTHER. SIDE OF THE ACCESS EASEMENT, WHERE SOME ADDITIONAL THINGS THAT COULD BE DONE THAT I THINK WOULD HELP TO KIND OF SOFTEN AND SCREEN SOME OF THIS FROM THE SURROUNDING DEVELOPMENT. AND SO I THINK IT'S A COOL THING ABOUT GOOD LANDSCAPING IS IF IT'S WELL MAINTAINED, IT LOOKS BETTER 30 YEARS FROM NOW. THEN IT DID ON THE DAY IT WAS PLANTED. THE UNFORTUNATE NATURE OF ANY BUILDING IS 30 YEARS AFTER IT GETS INITIAL CO, UNLESS IT IS REFURBISHED AND REHABILITATED. IT'S NOT GOING TO LOOK AS GOOD AS IT DID. AND SO I THINK FOR ME, THE COLOR PART OF IT NOTWITHSTANDING, IF WE COULD ADD SOME MORE TREES KIND OF IN THAT SOUTHERN AREA BELOW THE PARKING LOT IN THAT EASTERN AREA BETWEEN THE ACCESS EASEMENT AND THE PARKING, AND THEN OUTSIDE OF THAT 20-FOOT BUILD LINE, BEFORE THE OTHER ACCESS EASEMENT ON THE NORTH SIDE, I THINK THAT PROBABLY MAKES IT A LOT MORE PALATABLE.

SO I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S SOMETHING THE APPLICANT WOULD BE

INTERESTED IN DOING OR NOT. >> I WILL SAY THAT RECENT THAT WE HAVE THE TREES ON THE NORTH CLOSER TO THE PARK ARE THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ACCESS IT'S BECAUSE OF THE UTILITY LINES.

WE DID ASK THEM TO MOVE IT IN. SO THOSE TREES DON'T GET

WHACKED. >> I THINK THERE'S GOOD MASSING AND DENSITY ON THAT SIDE. OBVIOUSLY IT'S BETTER WHEN IT COMES TO VERY NICE TREES IN OUR COMMUNITY.

ESPECIALLY AS WE DRIVE THROUGH. BUT I THINK THE OTHER TWO AREAS REALLY ARE RIPE FOR THAT RIGHT NOW.

IT'S JUST SHOWING BERMUDA GRASS, WHICH LOOKS REAL GREEN UNTIL IT GETS HOT, AND THEN IT TURNS YELLOW AND THEN IT GETS GREEN AGAIN AFTER IT COOLS OFF. SO I THINK THERE'S AN OPPORTUNITY THERE TO KIND OF SOFTEN SOME OF THE ARCHITECTURAL CONCERNS WITH VEGETATIVE OVERSTORY TREES.

>> WE ARE COMPLETELY SUPPORTIVE OF ADDING MORE TREES.

I THINK AS HARDIN WAS SAYING, AS WE GO TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ACCESS EASEMENT ON THE NORTH SIDE OR THE RIGHT HAND OF THIS IMAGE THAT I'M LOOKING AT, THERE ARE ACTIVITIES EVEN OUTSIDE OF THAT UTILITY EASEMENT.

SO THERE'S OVERHEAD POWER LINES, AND THEN THERE'S ALSO UTILITIES THAT ARE PRIVATE UTILITIES FEEDING THROUGH THERE.

SO IF WE CAN ADD THE OTHER LANDSCAPING ENTRIES, KIND OF SURROUNDING THAT ACCESS EASEMENT IS COMPLETELY FINE WITH US.

AND WE ARE SUPPORTIVE OF THAT. >> I REALLY THINK THAT MASSING THAT YOU HAVE ON THE NORTHERN SIDE WHERE YOU'RE SHOWING THE PLAN, ESSENTIALLY OVERSTORY TREES CONTINUED THAT PATTERN AROUND THE PERIMETER OF THE PROPERTY.

IT MAY DROP IN 10 TREES ON THERE.

THAT'S GOING TO HELP WITH THE ADDITIONAL PAVING FOR THE PARKING, WHICH IS REALLY THE CONCERN WITH THE PARKING AS EVEN MORE CONCRETELY PUT. THE LESS PERVIOUS COVER WE HAVE, THE TREES ARE IN GOOD OFFSET BECAUSE THEY PROVIDE SHADE THAT HELPS TO COOL THOSE THINGS. SO I THINK THAT WOULD BE A BENEFICIAL SOLUTION FOR BOTH THE CITY AND FOR YOU GUYS.

>> OKAY. >> MAYOR COFFMAN: CLARK?

>> I DON'T HAVE ANY QUESTIONS. I'M JUST REPEATING MYSELF FROM EARLIER. I JUST FEEL LIKE WE HAVE A COMPLEX SET. WE ALREADY HAD AN AGREEMENT WITH BACK WHEN THEY GOT APPROVED. WE DIDN'T EVEN LET THOSE HEADS ON THEIR BUILDING. AND I RESPECT THE I RESPECT THE BLUE. THE MISSION.

BUT WE HAVE CONSISTENCY I EVEN WENT OVER AND LOOKED AT THE KROGER DEVELOPMENT AND IT'S CERTAIN COLORS.

THEY HAVE THE COLOR WRITING. ALL THE BUILDINGS ARE CONSISTENT TO THE SAME TONE OF COLORS. AND ARCHITECTURAL STYLE.

I MEAN, EVEN IF THE BLUE IS FINE WITH EVERYBODY, IT'S STILL IS GOING TO STICK OUT BECAUSE IT IS CLEARLY DIFFERENT THAN EVERYTHING ELSE. YEAH.

BUT THE COMPLEX IS ALL EARTH TONE.

YEAH. SO THAT'S JUST MY TWO CENTS.

[01:05:01]

>> I GUESS BACK TO MR. SMITH RIGHT.

I HEARD YOU LOUD AND CLEAR THERE IS NO BUDGING ON THE BLUE.

WHICH THAT'S NOT. THAT I DON'T LIKE IT.

BUT I'M NOT GOING TO GET STUCK ON IT.

BUT TO FOX POINT EARLIER, THE REST OF THE BUILDING FACADE, HOW IT'S LOOKING IN COMPARISON TO THE OTHER BUILDINGS IN THE COMPLEX, HAS THAT BEEN CONSIDERED OR CAN YOU ADDRESS

THAT POINT UNMATCHING? >> YES.

SO NOT MATCHING, PERFECT, PERFECT.

IT'S IN THE SAME COLOR FAMILY. IT USES SOME OF THE SAME RETURNS THAT ARE CURRENTLY THERE NOW. WE JUST DON'T INTEND TO USE THE ORANGE BRICKS AND THINGS LIKE THAT BECAUSE THOSE ARE NOT CONSISTENT WITH OUR COLOR PALETTES.

>> I'M TALKING ABOUT THE STYLE OF THE BUILDING AND THE MAKE UP OF IT, NOT JUST COLORS. THE STYLE OF THE BUILDING.

I WOULD CONSIDER A LOT MORE MODERN.

I DON'T KNOW NECESSARILY WHAT OUR BUILDINGS WOULD FIT IN AS FAR AS ARCHITECTURAL STYLE. BUT WHAT'S THERE IS REPRESENTATIVE OF WHAT OUR BUILDINGS LOOK LIKE.

SO DO WE THINK THAT IT'S GOING TO BLEND IN AND BE PART OF THE COMMUNITY? ABSOLUTELY, BECAUSE WE BUILD THESE BUILDINGS ALL OVER DALLAS FORT WORTH AND ALL ACROSS THE STATE OF TEXAS. SO YES, YES, WE THINK WE CAN BE A PART OF THAT DEVELOPMENT AND BE A GOOD NEIGHBOR.

BUT MATCHING THEM TO THE T IS SOMETHING THAT WE'RE NOT GOING TO DO TOO MUCH THERE STYLE. AS IT CONFLICTS WITH OUR BRAND.

>> TO THE COUNCIL, I LOVE A GOOD BRAND.

I LOVE CHILDREN'S. I THINK IT'S ALL GREAT.

I JUST CAN'T RECONCILE HOW WE PUT OTHER CORPORATIONS AND BUSINESSES THROUGH THE RINGER. AND MAKE THEM WORKSHOP.

WE MAKE THEM COME BACK OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

WE GET DOWN TO EVERY DETAIL AND IF I VOTED YES FOR THIS, IT WOULD ONLY BE BECAUSE I LIKE THAT WHICH IS NOT RIGHT.

I WOULD LOVE FOR YOU ALL TO BE HERE, MAYBE SOMEWHERE ELSE.

BUT I JUST. I DON'T FEEL LIKE IT'S FAIR FOR ME IN GOOD CONSCIENCE TO VOTE YES FOR THIS WHEN WE PUT EVERY OTHER PERSON. WE JUST DID IT WITH LOWS UNWILLING WORKSHOPS, AND THEY DIDN'T EVEN INCLUDE THE BLUE.

I JUST, I DON'T FEEL LIKE IT'S RIGHT, FIT.

THAT'S JUST ONE VOTE. >> I WANT TO CLARIFY AS YOUR STATEMENT IS THAT YOU WOULD WANT US TO LOOK LIKE THE OTHER BUILDINGS THERE AND JUST PUT OUR SIGN ON IT, THAT'S WHAT I WANT

TO UNDERSTAND? >> MS. HAMMONDS: COMPLEMENTING THE OTHERS LIKE YOU'RE NOT ANYWHERE CLOSE.

COMPLEMENTING IT, I COULD EVEN DO THAT BLUE BECAUSE IT COULD BE ARGUED THAT THE TONE DOWN BLUE WOULD BE IF YOU KIND OF COMPLIMENT THE ORANGE AND THE DARK GRAYS AND ALL THAT KIND OF STUFF, IT LOOKS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING LIKE THE REST OF THERE.

SO EVEN THE STYLE OF THE FACADE, THE ARCHITECTURE, ALL OF THAT.

SO -- JUST EVEN BEING ABLE TO BE WILLING TO GET THERE.

I'M NOT HEARING. >> YEAH, AND WE'VE HAD CONVERSATIONS ABOUT THIS WITH OUR LEADERSHIP AND THE DIRECTION HAS BEEN WITH THIS SPECIFIC SITE THAT IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT WE

WANT TO DO. >> MS. HAMMONDS: YEAH, AND THAT'S FAIR IN MY OPINION. THERE'S OTHER SITES FOR THAT.

BUT AGAIN, -- >> THANK YOU.

>> MAYOR COFFMAN: OTHER DIALOG ON THIS CASE? I CALL IT TO A VOTE. IS THERE A MOTION?

>> I MAKE A MOTION TO DENY. >> MAYOR COFFMAN: A MOTION FROM DENY FROM MAYOR PRO TEM REDCLIFFE.

THAT IS SECURED BY COUNCILWOMAN PEARMAN'S.

PLEASE VOTE. IT LOOKS LIKE WE HAVE A SPLIT VOTE. SO THAT MOTION DID NOT PASS.

IS THERE AN ALTERNATIVE MOTION, I GUESS, WHICH I GUESS THERE WOULDN'T BE A FURTHER SOLUTION ON THIS.

IS THERE ANOTHER MOTION? >> I MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE WITH A RECOMMENDATION THAT THE MASSING PATTERN OF THE TREES ALONG THE NORTHERN PROPERTY LINE BE CONTINUED TO THE HOUSTON AND SOUTHERN FROM DEEP LINE OF THE PROPERTY.

>> MAYOR COFFMAN: OKAY, A MOTION TO APPROVE WITH THE ITEMS THAT WERE STATED BY COUNCILMAN WEAVER, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN SHEFFIELD. PLEASE VOTE.

WHEN THE ITEM PASSES FOR-2. ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU.

>> DID YOU GET HIS STIPULATION? OKAY.

WE'RE GOOD? OKAY.

[01:10:04]

>> MAYOR COFFMAN: MOVING ON TO THE REGULAR AGENDA.

[2026-103 Consider and act upon authorizing the City Manager to enter into an agreement for professional services with BGE, Inc. for engineering-related design services associated with the Plant Interceptor Gravity Sanitary Sewer Main project in the amount of $670,900.]

ITEM 20361 IS WE CONSIDERING ADDRESSING MANAGER ENTER INTO EQUIPMENT FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AS GE.

>> GOOD EVENING MAYOR COUNCIL, THIS IS THE CONTINUATION OF PHASE THREE OF THE LIVE SESSION. SO EAST STATION IS TO THE SOUTHEAST OF THIS AREA. IS CURRENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION.

WE HAVE TWO PHASES. ONE IS FROM THIS STATION AND THE OTHER ONE IS THE GRAVITY MAIN. THIS ONE IS CALLED THE INTERCEPTOR. SERVICE LINE ORIGINALLY WAS THE CITY FACILITY THAT WAS TURNED OVER TO PR EIGHT YEARS AGO WHEN MURPHY WAS FORMED, AND THE REASON THAT WAS THAT WAS BECAUSE WHAT IS BEING PUMPED THROUGH THIS LINE FROM THE INVOLVES BOTH THE -- AND THE CITY OF PHOENIX. SO THE INTENT WAS TO MAKE IT A SYSTEM FACILITY. SO HERE ACTUALLY OWNS THIS LINE.

WE'RE AT THE POINT NOW WHERE THEY'RE DOING SOME INTERCEPTOR THAT WILL GO AWAY. SO THEY'LL NO LONGER HAVE -- GOING THROUGH THIS LINE. IT'LL BE EXCLUSIVELY.

SO IN ORDER FOR US TO HOPEFULLY SAVE MONEY BY DOING IT AS A CITY PROJECT INSTEAD OF A TREE PROJECT,.

>> MS. HAMMONDS: HAS AGREED ONCE THEY'RE DONE WITH -- THAT THEY WILL GIVE THIS BACK TO US. SO THIS LINE IS CURRENTLY AN EXISTING 18-INCH MAIN WE HAVE THAT'S COMING TO IT NOW AS PART OF PHASE TWO OF THE STATION. SO THIS LINE NEEDS TO BE UPSIZED AND SO WE ARE LOOKING AT ABOUT 6,300 LINEAR FEET OF LINE RANGING ANYWHERE FROM 18-INCH TO 54-INCH, WHEN YOU GET CLOSER TO THE PLANT. WE ALSO PLAN TO PUT A METRO STATION IN SUBMISSION ACTUALLY, NEEDS TO FLOW TO BE ABLE TO HELP WITH I AND I. ALSO BE ABLE TO VERIFY FLOWS THAT ARE COMING FROM MOUNT CREEK.

SO WE CAN CHARGE BASED ON OUR PERCENTAGE OF THAT FLOW.

SO THAT ALLOWS US TO BE ABLE TO ALSO CORRELATE AND BE ABLE TO VERIFY FLOWS THROUGHOUT THE SYSTEM.

THIS ITEM IS ON AIR IMPACT FEE, CIP.

SO IS ELIGIBLE FOR WASTEWATER IMPACT FEES.

THAT'S HOW WE'RE PROPOSING TO USE THOSE FEES FOR THIS DESIGN AS WELL AS THE CONSTRUCTION, WHEN WE GET TO THAT POINT.

THIS ITEM WAS PRESENTED TO -- ADVISORY BOARD BACK ON MARCH 19TH. AND IT WAS THE UNANIMOUS RECOMMENDATION OF THE UAB THAT THIS ITEM, BEFORE CITY COUNCIL FOR APPROVAL. AND I'LL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY

QUESTIONS. >> MAYOR COFFMAN: NO SPEAKERS? QUESTIONS ON THIS? NO QUESTIONS.

>> I MAKE A MOTION. >> MAYOR COFFMAN: ROSS?

>> MR. WEAVER: THIS IS A LINE THAT WE DON'T OWN.

WE WILL OWN. AND SO ARE WE REPLACING IT IN ITS ENTIRETY OR IS THIS A SECOND SEGMENT?

>> THE INTENT HERE WOULD BE WE ARE GOING TO LEAVE THE 18-INCH IN PLACE. WE'RE GOING TO PARALLEL IF THAT IS NOT IN BAD SHAPE. IT'S JUST TOO SMALL.

ULTIMATELY, EVERYTHING IS COMING FROM THE SOUTHEAST.

THE STATION AT THE EAST LIFT STATION GOES TO THIS LINE HERE.

AND SO THE INTENT IS WE WILL LEAVE MAJORITY OF THAT LINE IN PLACE. WE'LL PARALLEL IT WITH THE LARGER LINE, AND THEN IN THE FUTURE, 18 CAN GO AWAY WHEN IT REACHES ITS USEFUL LIFE. AND WE STILL HAVE THAT LOGIC LINE. SO WE WON'T HAVE TO PUT ANOTHER

LINE IN THE FUTURE. >> MR. WEAVER: OKAY, THAT MAKES

MORE SENSE. >> MAYOR COFFMAN: ANY FURTHER

DISCUSSION? >> SECOND.

>> MAYOR COFFMAN: A MOTION AND A SECOND.

PLEASE VOTE. ITEM PASSES, 6-0.

[2026-104 Consider and act upon a proposal from Pure Technologies U.S., Inc. for an in-service water pipeline leak detection assessment of the City’s treated water pipeline from the Tayman Water Treatment Plant to the N. 9th Street area in the amount of $86,500, plus contingency in the amount of $8,500, for a total amount of $95,000 and authorize the City Manager to negotiate and enter into an agreement for services.]

UNTIL 2026-414. PIPELINE LEAK DETECTION ASSESSMENT THE CITY'S WATER PIPELINES CONTAINMENT.

WATER TREATMENT PLANT ON NORTH NINTH STREET AND THE AMOUNT OF 86,500 PLUS CONTINGENCY AMOUNT OF 8500, FOR A TOTAL AMOUNT OF 95,002 AUTHORIZE CITY MANAGER TO NEGOTIATE WITH ENTER INTO THE AGREEMENT FOR THE SERVICES, WITH.

>> THIS ITEM IS DOING A LEAK INSPECTION DETECTION ON OUR EXISTING 24-INCH WATER PIPELINE THAT COMES FROM THE TREATMENT PLANT IN THE TOWN. IT'S ROUGHLY 5 MILES, THAT IS A PIPE. IT HAS BEEN IN PLACE SINCE THE MID 80S. SO WE'VE NEVER DONE AN INSPECTION ON THIS PARTICULAR LINE.

WE ORIGINALLY HAD INTENDED TO ALSO DO AN ELECTROMAGNETIC INSPECTION ON IT. WHICH IS CONSIDERABLY MORE EXPENSIVE. HOWEVER, BECAUSE OF THE VALVES THAT WE HAVE IN THE SYSTEM FOR THAT PIECE OF EQUIPMENT CANNOT FLOAT THROUGH. AND SO IT CREATES ISSUES.

IT CAN BE HUNG UP AND CREATE PROBLEMS WITHIN THE SYSTEM.

WE ARE ACTUALLY JUST LOOKING TO DO THE LEAK DETECTION RIGHT NOW, WHAT THAT WILL DO IS IT WILL PICK UP THE SMALLEST LEAK, AND THAT WILL ALLOW US TO BE ABLE TO GET OUT TO DO REPAIRS BEFORE WE

[01:15:01]

HAVE SOME TYPE OF CATASTROPHIC EVENT WITH THIS LINE.

WE DO HAVE THE LINE COMING FROM THE PLANT.

AT THE SAME TIME, THIS IS THE PRIMARY THAT COMES FROM THE TEAM PLAN. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE KEEPING UP WITH IT. WE ALSO ARE WORKING ON OUR STRATEGIC PLAN TO HAVE A PARALLEL LINE IN THE FUTURE.

THAT WILL HAVE A SECOND FEED AS WELL, COMING FROM THIS PLAN.

BUT THIS IS A UTILITY FUNDED ITEM, SO IT IS IN THE BUDGET THIS YEAR FOR THE UTILITY FUND. WE ALSO DISCUSSED THIS WITH THE UTILITY ADVISORY BOARD ON MARCH 19TH.

AND THEY ALSO HAD A RECOMMENDATION FOR CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL. WITH THAT, I'LL BE HAPPY TO

ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. >> MAYOR COFFMAN: ANY SPEAKERS? QUESTIONS ON THIS CASE? I'LL TAKE A MOTION.

>> MOTION TO APPROVE. >> REPORTER: SECOND.

>> MAYOR COFFMAN: MOTION MADE BY COUNCILMAN MOORMAN, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN SHEFFIELD. PLEASE VOTE.

ADAM PASSES 6-0. THANK YOU.

202-6105. ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF TEXAS AMENDING THE CODE OF ORDINANCES BY AMENDING CHAPTER ONE GENERAL PROVISIONS BY AMENDING ARTICLE 108 TITLE PARKS AND RECREATION

BY EMBEDDING PROVISION ONE. >> : BY EMBEDDING SECTION 108 AMPLIFIED SOUND AND MONO 8.002 UNLAWFUL ACTS.

I'M GOING TO STOP READING THERE. >> GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. SO AS YOU READ THE SIMPLE CAPTION THERE, THIS IS JUST CHANGING SOME OF THE RULES IN THE ORDINANCE FOR RECREATION. WE HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH THE POLICE DEPARTMENT A LOT OF THESE SUGGESTIONS WERE MADE FROM THEM.

AS YOU ALL KNOW, WE'VE HAD SOME ACTIVITIES GOING ON IN THE PARKS AND PEOPLE GETTING A LITTLE OUT OF HAND.

SO WE'RE JUST TRYING TO WORK THIS BACK IN AND TURN IT DOWN AND MAKE IT EASIER FOR OUR POLICE DEPARTMENT TO HELP MANAGE WHAT'S GOING ON. SO ONE OF THEM, YOU'LL SEE IS AND SOME OF THESE ARE FROM COMPLAINTS OF OUR NEIGHBORS.

SO WE'RE TRYING TO BE GOOD NEIGHBOR.

SO AMPLIFIED SOUND WE'RE ADDING AND DEFINING THAT AMPLIFIED SOUND MUSIC OR SPEECH PROJECTED OR TRANSMITTED BY ARTIFICIAL MEANS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO AMPLIFIERS LOUDSPEAKERS, AUTOMOBILE, OR PORTABLE SPEAKERS, OR ANY SIMILAR DEVICE.

SO THAT'S ONE ABOUT SOUND. THEN YOU GET TO.

PAIGE TWO IN THEIR TOO. NUMBER THREE.

AND WE ARE ADDING ON TO THE FIREARMS AND FIRECRACKERS WHERE WE ADD IN THERE OR ANY OTHER DEVICE WHERE THE COMMERCIALLY MANUFACTURED OR HOMEMADE. THAT IS DESIGNED FOR MODIFIED TO LAUNCH OR SHOOT A PROJECTILE. AND THAT SECTION DOES NOT PRECLUDE A PERSON FROM CARRYING A HANDGUN WITHIN A PARK IN ACCORDANCE WITH STATE LAW. THEN WE MOVE OVER TO PAGE 3 TO NUMBER 13. AND IT IS, AGAIN, ADDRESSING AMPLIFIED SOUND TO USE FOR ALLOW TO BE USED.

ANY TYPE OF AMPLIFIED SOUND EQUIPMENT WITHOUT PRIOR APPROVAL FROM THE DIRECTOR OR DESIGNEE. SO SOME OF OUR TOURNAMENTS, SOME PEOPLE FROM WE HAVE A WEDDING, THEY USE AMPLIFIED SOUND.

SO IT'S JUST MAKING SURE IT'S SOMETHING REASONABLE.

AND THEN ON PAGE 3 AS WELL, NUMBER 19.

-- AFTER MANY DISCUSSIONS, WE DISCUSSED THAT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT REDUCING THAT THE PARKS ARE OPEN.

SO CURRENTLY THEY ARE FROM 5:00 A.M. TO 11:00 PM.

AND NOW WE ARE SUGGESTING THAT THEY GO BACK TO 10:00 PM.

JUST TO TONE OF THIS DOWN, JUST BECAUSE IT'S BEEN A CHALLENGE WITH OUR NEIGHBORS. THAT WOULD NOT EXCLUDE US FROM HAVING TOURNAMENTS OR SPECIAL EVENTS OR IF SOMEONE APPLIED FOR A SPECIAL EVENT PERMIT. THEY WOULD HAVE TO HAVE PERMISSION FROM THE PARKS DEPARTMENT OR CITY COUNCIL, DEPENDING ON WHAT THE EVENT WAS. SO SOME OF OUR FACEBOOK SOME OF OUR SPORTS GOES OVER IT. IT'S KIND OF CLEARING THAT GENERAL POPULATION, WHERE WE'RE GETTING SOME OF THIS ROWDY BEHAVIOR GOING ON LATE IN THE EVENING.

AND THEN THE LAST ONE IS ON PAGD IT'S ON LETTER B FOR EJECTMENT.

IT TALKS ABOUT RIGHT NOW THE CITY MANAGER OR HIS DESIGNATED PART ATTENDANCE THAT ARE DESIGNATED BY THE CITY MANAGER.

BUT WE ADDED IN THE POLICE DEPARTMENT.

SO IF POLICE, IN AND PEOPLE ARE ACTING CRAZY AND THEY FEEL LIKE IT'S TIME TO HAVE THEM LEAVE THE PARK, THEY'RE ABLE TO HAVE THEM LEAVE THE PARK. PARK MANY TIMES, IF WE DO A CRIMINAL TRESPASS, IT HAS TO BE SOMEONE FROM THE PARKS

[01:20:02]

DEPARTMENT THAT SAYS THAT THIS GIVES POLICE OPPORTUNITY TO EITHER REMOVE THEM FROM THE PARK.

WITHOUT THEM NOT NECESSARILY GOING TO JAIL, JUST EVERYONE LEAVE -- YOU NEED TO LEAVE RIGHT NOW.

SO -- AND THE OTHER BACKUP WITH THAT IS IF WE DON'T LEAVE, WE'RE GOING TO CRIMINAL TRESPASS YOU OR HOWEVER MUCH FURTHER IT GETS OUT OF HAND. SO THOSE ARE THE GENERAL UPDATES TO THAT. SO I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. SPEAK KIND OF LIKE THE IDEA OF CHRIS BEING OUT THERE ALL THE TIME.

>> HE LOVES PARKS. >> MAYOR COFFMAN: ROSS, YOUR

FIRST. >> MR. WEAVER: THE ONLY QUESTION I HAD WAS ON NUMBER 19. SO I KNOW ESPECIALLY WITH COMMITTEE PARK, I KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE USE THAT FOR EXERCISE RUNNING, WALKING AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE.

SO AT THIS POINT IN TIME NOW, IF SOMEBODY OUT THERE BETWEEN 10:00 AND 11:00 OH, GETTING THEIR JOG IN, ESPECIALLY DURING THE SUMMER WHEN IT'S HOT UNTIL ABOUT 10:00 OR 11:00 ARE THEY IN VIOLATION F

THIS ORDINANCE? >> SO THIS IS JUST AN OUTLET CHIEF BROWN, SPEAK TO THIS. BUT THE WAY I UNDERSTAND IT IS OUR NEIGHBORS ARE COMING IN AND THEY'RE LOGGING INTO THE PARK AND THEY'RE GOING FOR A WALK, AND THEY AREN'T CAUSING A PROBLEM, THEY'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE A PROBLEM.

BUT WHEN WE'VE GOT THE CARS DRIVING IN, FILLING OUT EVERYWHERE AND THE TEENAGERS SHOOTING FIREWORKS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PARK, AND THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE A PROBLEM.

>> MR. WEAVER: WHICH I RESPECT, BY THE WAY, IT'S WRITTEN, IS TIME IN WHICH PARKS, WHICH I ASSUME IS THE WHOLE THING.

PLAYGROUNDS AND RECREATIONAL AREAS ARE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC, HERE. SO WHEN WE SAY PARKS, I GET IT, PLAYGROUNDS AND RECREATIONAL AREAS.

THOSE ARE MORE ORGANIZED COLLECTIVE MEETING SPACES, GROUPING SPACES. BUT IF I'M TEXTING, LISTING, I WANT THAT MAYBE I WORK THIRD SHIFT AND I WANT TO GO FOR A WALK AT 3:00 A.M. OR WHATEVER IT IS, BECAUSE THAT'S WHEN I GET TO

EXERCISE. >> IT WOULD BE IN VIOLATION.

>> MR. WEAVER: RIGHT. AND SO THEN WE HAVE, LET'S SAY WE HAVE A RESIDENT IN NEIGHBORING, WHO SAYS, HEY.

THERE'S SOME DUDE WALKING IN THE PARK AT 2:00 AM.

I'M GOING TO CALL 911 OFFICERS RESPOND.

WHAT ARE WE DOING AT THAT POINT? >> THAT GIVES THE OFFICERS A

REASON TO HAVE A CONVERSATION. >> MR. WEAVER: RIGHT, INFORMED THEM THAT THEY'RE NOT ALLOWED TO BE THERE AT THAT TIME OF DAY.

>> GIVE THEM A TICKET OR ARREST THEM.

>> MR. WEAVER: OKAY. >> AND IF THEY DID THAT AT 2:00 AM I NOW, THEY'D BE IN VIOLATION OF THE ORDINANCE.

>> MR. WEAVER: RIGHT. >> BUT YES.

I THINK IT'S A TOOL. >> IS THERE AWAY THAT THAT, THAT, THAT THE VERBIAGE CAN BE MANIPULATED OR SOMETHING? I DON'T KNOW. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT VERBIAGE COULD BE. BUT THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES WHERE I COULDN'T SLEEP AND I TOOK MY BOX AT 2:00 IN THE MORNING.

>> JUST DON'T TAKE IT IN THE PARK.

[LAUGHTER] >> YOU CAN WALK DOWN TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD STREET, JUST KNOCK THE PARK.

11:00. THAT TIME IS 11:00.

>> I DID A LOT OF RESEARCH. SO SOME OF THEM CHANGE.

SAVING TIME. SOME OF THEM FOR NINE.

SOME OF THEM ARE. THAT IT IS.

ESPECIALLY THE PARK.

IT IS WHAT IT IS AT 10:00 TO 11:00, NOW.

OH, WAIT. MY.

>> MR. SHUFFIELD: AND I APPRECIATE THAT.

CERTAINLY DIDN'T UNDERSTAND IT. AND I DON'T WANT TO PUT YOU OR ANY OTHER STAFF, IN AN AWKWARD SITUATION, AT THE CONVERSATION, WELL, UP. WE GOT SOME WE WAIT HERE.

LET'S PUT THE NEXT PERSON, THE NEXT NIGHT HAS SOMEBODY ELSE TALKING AND YOU GOT TO GET OUT OF HERE.

YOU KNOW THAT LETTER OF THAT LAW.

AND THAT'S GOING TO BE AWKWARD. WITH CITIZENS AND STAFF AND WITH POLICE DEPARTMENT AND ALL THAT. I JUST DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S WHERE WE NEED TO GO.

>> IT'S NO DIFFERENT THAN A SEATBELT VIOLATION.

[01:25:08]

RELAXING WALK.

>> MR. SHUFFIELD: IT'S PROBABLY GOING TO BE GETTING MORE INTO OUR QUICKNESS WHEN. POINT, SOMEBODY THAT'S OUT THERE THAT THEY CAN'T SLEEP AND THEY LOOK OUT THAT WINDOW.

THEY'RE DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AND THEY SEE SOMETHING AND THEY CALL THAT IT SOMETHING LIKE THIS.

AND THERE'S NOT A BIG GROUP. THERE'S NOT A LOT OF FIREWORKS GOING ON AND THINGS HAPPEN. I CAN DISAGREE WITH THIS.

AND THEN REQUEST THAT MAYBE SOMEBODY SPEND SOME TIME THINKING ABOUT IT AND SEE IF THERE'S SOME VERBIAGE THAT MAYBE

THAT COULD BE TWEAKED. >> FOR THIS TYPE OF ORDINANCE, THE ONLY WAY TO TWEAK, THAT YOU CAN'T HAVE IT FORWARD DISCRETIONARY. IT'S --

>> IS THERE NO WAY, JO, TO CARVE OUT ALL OF THE AREAS OUTSIDE OF

THE ACTUAL WALKING SIDEWALK? >> THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION.

THE 14TH STREET SIDEWALK CONSIDERED PART OF THE PARK?

>> NOW, IT'S ON THE PUBLIC ROAD. SO YOU CAN WALK UP THAT.

BUT YOU HAVE NOT GONE PAST. >> SO IT'S AN INTERNAL AREA OF THE PARK THAT'S? OKAY.

SPECIFIC TO COMMUNITY. >> IT WILL HAVE TO BE WELL MARKED. SO PEOPLE KNOW THAT THIS PARK IS CLOSED AT 10:00. BE SURPRISED WITH.

>> YEAH. >> AND THERE ARE PARKED HOURS AT THE PARK THAT WE NEED TO CHANGE, IF YOU VOTE FOR THIS.

>> SO PERSONALLY, I LIKE A LOT OF THE CHANGES.

THAT I'VE GOT THAT I WOULDN'T SAY SIGNIFICANT.

PROBABLY MINOR CONCERNS ABOUT A COUPLE OF SPECIFICS ON IT.

ONE BEING WHAT WE JUST DISCUSSED.

BUT ON THE FLIP SIDE, JUST TO GIVE MY OPINION ON IT, I LOVE SECTION 1.08.0 FOR ENFORCEMENT, ADDING THE POLICE DEPARTMENT TO THAT BIT. I THINK THAT'S COMPLETELY APPROPRIATE. I THINK IT'S SILLY FOR LACK OF A BETTER WAY TO PUT IT, THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO COME GET A SCRIPT AND ESPECIALLY IN THE EVENING OR SOMETHING.

>> TO YOUR POINT, A LOT OF TIMEN GREAT --

>> MR. MOORMAN: YEAH, I'M SURE THEY ARE.

BUT THAT MAKES A LOT OF SENSE. I UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPT OF THE AMPLIFIED SOUND. OUR I UNDERSTAND THE INTENTION, ON THE AMPLIFIED SOUND BIT. MY ONLY CONCERN WAS THE DEFINITION WE'VE GOT HERE. IS THE -- JUST MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE. I'D LIKE TO TAKE MY VOICE UP TO THAT LITTLE FISHING POND DURING DAYTIME HOURS, MAYBE ON THAT I'M AFTER SOMETHING, A LITTLE CANOPY, SIT THERE, TURN ON SOME MUSIC. NOT DISRUPTING.

WHERE OBVIOUSLY VERY COGNIZANT OF THE FACT THAT THERE'S HOUSES THERE. SO NOT BLASTING MUSIC THERE.

BUT ACCORDING TO THE VERBIAGE ON IT, THAT WOULD NOT BE INAPPROPRIATE ACTIVITY. AND I KNOW A LOT OF FOLKS DO THAT PARTICULAR -- PARTICULARLY DURING DAYTIME HOURS, BECAUSE MOST FOLKS WITH COMMON SENSE NO, HEY, ONCE IT GETS DARK, WE DON'T NEED TO BE PLAYING MUSIC BECAUSE THERE'S HOUSES.

I KNOW EVERYBODY DOESN'T HAVE THAT COMMON SENSE.

THAT'S WHY WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THIS.

WITH THAT, MY PERSONAL OPINION IS I'M ALL FOR THAT.

I JUST FEEL LIKE THAT SHOULD HAVE A TIME CONSTRAINT ON IT OR JUST AN AFTER DARK CONSTRAINT. IT'S HEY, ONCE THE SUN GOES DOWN, AMPLIFIED SOUNDS DONE, THAT'S MY SUGGESTION.

I'M ASSUMING WE COULD DO THAT WITHIN IT.

BECAUSE I FEEL LIKE DURING DAYTIME HOURS, THAT'S PROBABLY NOT -- AND YOU CAN CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG.

THAT'S PROBABLY NOT THE HIGH TIME OF THE COMPLAINTS.

IT'S PROBABLY ONCE THE SUN GOES DOWN, ONCE PEOPLE START GETTING KIDS READY FOR BED OR THAT KIND OF THING.

SO THAT'S MY -- I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND THE INTENTIONALITY BEHIND IT. THE OTHER QUESTION I HAD FOR CHIEF, OR I GUESS ONE OF Y'ALL, ON THE PROJECTILE SHOOTING, AGAIN, UNDERSTAND WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HERE AND WHAT THE INTENTIONALITY IS BUT DOES THAT -- WOULD THAT INCLUDE WATER

GUNS? >> YEAH, THE SPIRIT BEHIND THIS, I BELIEVE THEY CALL THEM THE SWEAT GLANDS FOR THE -- SORRY, I THOUGHT I WAS PLAYING AN OUTFIT.

I DON'T WANT TO GET IN TROUBLE. THE SPIRIT BEHIND THAT, THE WATER. PLEASE, I BELIEVE THEY'RE

[01:30:02]

CALLED. WE SEE A LOT OF THOSE OUT THERE AND THE KIDS THAT ARE OUT THERE SHOOTING THOSE.

BUT BUT YEAH, I THINK BY DEFINITION THEY'RE, ADVICE THAT MANUFACTURER TO -- I DON'T KNOW THAT WOULD BE A PROJECTILE YEAH. SO I DON'T THINK THAT.

>> MR. MOORMAN: SO THAT'S A GOOD CLARIFICATION AND THAT THE OTHER THING I HAD A QUESTION ON THAT SAME AREA, IT WOULD A NERF GUN BE CONSIDERED THAT? AND IS THERE A IS THERE ANY WAY? JUST LIKE WE'VE GOT SOME EXCLUSIVES HERE CLARIFICATIONS COULD WE PUT A CLARIFICATION TO SAY EXCLUDING NERF STYLE

CHILDREN'S -- >> CHIEF BROWN: ONE ISSUE, IF I MAY, IS THAT UNDER SHOOTING AT EACH OTHER, THAT'S ONE THING.

THAT'S NOT WHAT THEY'RE DOING FOR THEY START THAT WAY.

AND THEN AFTER A FEW HOURS, COMING THEY'RE SHOOTING A PERSON THAT'S OUT TALKING TO THEIR DOG. AND WE GET.

I WON'T SAY A LOT COMPLAINTS. DEFINITELY STRATEGIES WITH GUNS

AND FITNESS. >> MR. MOORMAN: I SEE.

>> SOME OF THOSE NERF GUNS ARE AGGRESSIVE.

>> CHIEF BROWN: IT'S ANNOYING. >> MR. MOORMAN: I GET THAT.

ALSO IT'S A BIT IF THEY CAN GO SHOOTING GUNS IN A PARK.

I DON'T KNOW I JUST HAVE CONFLICTED FEELINGS ABOUT IT.

I UNDERSTAND IT'S A BAD ACTORS ARE WHAT THE INTENTION IS AROUND IT. BUT ALSO I JUST HATE TO SEE A SITUATION WHERE AGAIN, NOT TO SAY THIS WOULD HAPPEN.

BUT IT VERY WELL COULD BECAUSE SOME PEOPLE ARE PARENTS.

AND IF THERE'S A BUNCH OF FOLKS OUT SOME.

OUT THERE SHOOTING NERF GUNS IN THE MIDDLE OF A FIELD, NOT MESSING WITH NOBODY AND THE CALL SOMEBODY OUT THERE, IT'S LIKE, NOW THEY'VE GOT TO GO TO THESE POOR KIDS AND BE LIKE, HEY, STOP. SO I DON'T KNOW, BUT THOSE ARE MY CONCERNS. COME AGAIN, NOT -- I WOULDN'T SAY IT'S. JUST MINOR CONCERNS WITH IT.

EVERYTHING ELSE, I'M PRETTY SUPPORTIVE OF IT.

I WOULD LIKE TO SEE A AT DARK CLARIFICATION ON THE AMPLIFIED SOUND. JUST ONE ATOM --

>> SOME OF THE COMPLAINTS I'VE RECEIVED HAVE BEEN AROUND THE TIMES. IT'S PRIMARILY BASKETBALL AND VOLLEYBALL, THAT AREAS THAT THEY'RE JUST PROJECTING THE MUSIC DIRECTLY TOWARDS PEOPLE'S HOME.

>> CHIEF BROWN: WEEKENDS HAVE BEEN PRETTY ACTIVE AND DURING THE DAYLIGHT HOURS. SOME MUSIC.

>> I GET IT. IT'S A PARK AND WE CERTAINLY DON'T WANT TO STIFLE FUN. BUT THERE'S A LOT OF THINGS THAT YOU CAN'T DO IN PUBLIC SPACES THAT YOU CAN DO ELSEWHERE BUT IF YOU WANT TO TAKE A LOOK AT 3:00 IN THE MORNING, YOU CAN LIKE YOU CAN WALK OTHER AREAS. THERE'S SOLUTIONS TO ALL THESE ISSUES. SO I JUST THINK THAT THERE'S HEALTHY ALTERNATIVES FOR SOME OF THE CONCERNS THAT HAVE BEEN

RAISED. >> MR. MOORMAN: I DON'T DISAGREE IN PRINCIPLE WITH YOU. BUT WE DO HAVE A LOT OF DENSE DEVELOPMENT TAKING PLACE, WHETHER IT'S WHERE THERE'S NOT A TON OF OPEN SPACE OUTSIDE OF OUR PARKS.

SO THAT'S MORE MY CONCERN IS. WHEREAS BACK IN THE DAY WHEN EVERYTHING WAS WHEN PLUS, OR HAVE LOTS OF, HEY, GO TO SOMEBODY'S BACKYARD OR GO TO THIS GOOD WE'RE SEEING AS WE GET MORE DENSE, THERE'S JUST LESS OPPORTUNITY FOR THAT.

THAT'S MY PRIMARY CONCERN. >> MAYOR COFFMAN: I UNDERSTAND THAT THE OF THE LAW AND THE WAY THAT IT'S GOING TO BE WRITTEN AND HOW THE ORDINANCE WILL BE WORDED MATTERS, OBVIOUSLY, WE ALSO HAVE REALLY GOOD OFFICERS WHO PROBABLY AREN'T GOING TO INTEGRATE TO A SIX-YEAR-OLD. SHOULDN'T A NERF GUN, PROBABLY JUST GOING TO ASK THEM TO STOP SHOOTING THAT NERF GUN.

I THINK THAT THERE'S JUDGMENT THERE THAT WE HAVE PROVEN THROUGHOUT THE YEARS IN OUR DEPARTMENT.

AND THAT WE USE A LEVEL HEADS AS WE APPROACH THESE THINGS.

>> AND I DO GET THAT THE WAY IT'S WRITTEN, WE COULD BE ENFORCING EVERY LITTLE THING. IT'S ACTUALLY JUST A TOOL FOR OFFICERS TO UTILIZE WHEN SOMEONE'S ABUSING SOMETHING COULD WE DRIVE BY ALL THE TIME AND PEOPLE HAVE MUSIC AND THEY'RE DOING STUFF AND HEY, HEY, AND KEEP GOING.

SO IT'S JUST THESE ABUSE WHEN THEY'RE BLASTING IT AND WE'RE GETTING NEIGHBORS CALLS AND WE DID HAVE A.

>> : DIRECTOR WHO TURNED ON THE MUSIC AT 6:00 A.M. AND I THINK I HAD 7:CALLS ABOUT THAT ON MONDAY.

SO WE PUT THAT IN EVERYTHING. SO IT'S JUST TRYING TO HAVE THE TOOLS TO STOP THAT ACTORS. BUT I GET WHERE IT COULD BE.

IF SOMEONE'S BEING SENSITIVE AND IF YOU'RE GOING TO USE THEIR

JUDGMENT. >> MAYOR COFFMAN: OKAY.

[01:35:02]

CCLARK? >> MR. WICKLIFFE: I'M FINE WITH EVERYTHING. I DON'T HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

I JUST WANTED TO HAVE A CONVERSATION AROUND THE 10:00 PM, 11:00 PM. MOSTLY IN THE SUMMER MONTHS, I KNOW YOU SAID IT'S DIFFERENT EVERYWHERE.

BUT I GUESS IT WAS TIME TO CHANGE MORE THAN ANYTHING.

I MEAN, IN THE SUMMER, IT COULD BE 8:00 AT NIGHT, 9:00 AT NIGHT AND STILL BE PRETTY DAYLIGHT OR STILL TWO-POINT, UNLESS SUMMER.

IT WAS SO HOT I DIDN'T TAKE MY KIDS TO GO PLAY MOST OF THE TIME UNTIL 8:00 OR 9:00 BECAUSE I WAS SLEEPING BEDTIME FOR SUMMER.

BUT THAT'S SO I WON'T SAY THIS MUCH.

I CAN'T EVEN TAKE MY KIDS TO, WE ANYMORE BECAUSE IT'S GOTTEN SO OUT OF HAND. SO I AM FULLY ON BOARD ON MARKING THAT DOWN. BUT I DO HAVE SOMEWHAT OF A HEARTBURN UNDER 10, O'CLOCK FILM, WHICH I KNOW YOU HAD TO PICK ANY TIME. SO I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S SOMETHING THAT I'M THE ONLY ONE WHO FEELS THAT WAY.

OR MAYBE IT'S WITH TIME CHANGE. I'M MORE CONCERNED ABOUT THE SUMMER MONTHS WITH WRITTEN IN TIME CHANGE WHEN IT GETS DARK AT 4:00. WHATEVER.

BUT -- >> WHY DON'T WE JUST CALL THE

HUMIDITY PARK OUT? >> ARE WE SAYING BETWEEN THE 10:00 TO 11:00? ARE WE SAYING THAT'S A BIG TIME?

>> THE PROBLEM IS YOU HAVE PEOPLE TRYING TO GO TO BED,

RIGHT, THE KID. >> IT'S BEEN RELATIVELY QUIET WITH THE EXCEPTION OF SPRING BREAK WEEK, GRADUATION, IS GOING TO BE UPON US, SO IT'S GOING TO BE OKAY, IF AFTER GOING FORWARD AND FOR PREPARED FOR THAT. SO --

>> , AT BEDTIME. SPEAKING WITH HIM, THAT WAITING FOR THOSE HOUSES BACK UP TO PICKLEBALL, VOLLEYBALL, AND BASKETBALL, ALL RIGHT, I FEEL FOR THOSE NEIGHBORS WHO'D.

>> I MIGHT BE THE BAD GUY HERE. THEY KNEW WHAT THEY MOVED IN NEXT. I WOULD FULLY AGREE WITH THE AMPLIFIED SOUND OR ANYTHING. IF I'M ON A PLAYGROUND AT 10:00 BECAUSE IT'S HOT HERE IN JULY, AND I I'M NOT LETTING MY KIDS, NORMALLY USE KID, AND SO WHAT WE'RE SEEING IS NOT NORMAL USAGE. WE'RE SEEING IT OVERRUN WITH --

>> NO, I AGREE. I DON'T EVEN LIKE GOING TO COMMUNITY MORE BECAUSE IT'S PRETTY OUT OF HAND EVERY TIME I

GO. >> EVEN HAVE TO SEE THE 710.

THEY'RE LIKE. >> MR. WICKLIFFE: I DRIVE, PAST, I MUST HAVE SEEN PEOPLE PARKING LATE IN THE EVENING.

SO I'M NOT GOING TO GET HELD UP ON.

I JUST I JUST DIDN'T KNOW THERE WAS A CONVERSATION ABOUT MAYBE IN THE SUMMERS BECAUSE IT'S SO HOT, WE LET IT ROLL TO 11 OR IF ANYONE WANTS TO -- I'LL GO WITH 10.

I'M JUST -- IT SEEMS KIND OF EARLY IN THE SUMMER.

>> I FEEL LIKE IT'S GOOD WHENEVER I THINK OF IT WITH THE PEOPLE THAT LIVE THERE, BECAUSE IT'S NOT LIKE IT'S GOING TO HIT 10:00 AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT'S QUIET.

IF IT'S A PROBLEM, COMING, IT'S GOING TO BE WELL AFTER THAT.

BY THE TIME THEY'RE BROUGHT IN. AND SO THEN IF IT WERE 11 WE'RE GOING INTO MIDNIGHT. AND AGAIN, THIS ENTIRE ORDINANCE IS REALLY TO USE AS A BACKUP WHEN IT'S NEEDED BECAUSE IT'S OUT OF LINE. SO IF YOU'RE PUSHING THE KIDS, WHICH I THINK YOU'RE CRAZY TO KEEP YOUR KIDS TO A PLAYGROUND AT 10:00 AT NIGHT ANYWAY. BUT I MEAN, I GUESS I GO TO BED WAY TOO EARLY. BUT I DON'T THINK YOU'RE THE

PROBLEM. >> I'M A COOL DAD.

>> MS. HAMMONDS: APPARENTLY -- >> I HAVE HEARD THERE'S A AN ORDINANCE THAT SAYS NO HOOTING AND HOLLERING AFTER MIDNIGHT.

YOU CAN ROLL WITH THAT. >> MAYOR COFFMAN: ROSS?

>> MR. WEAVER: I'M GOING TO ECHO WITH CLARK AND SAYING THERE ANYTIME WE MAKE CHANGES LIKE THIS, THERE'S A POTENTIAL FOR UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES, WHICH WAS KIND OF THE POINT OF SOME OF THE THINGS THAT WERE BROUGHT UP SOME OF ELLEN BROUGHT UP THERE AS WELL, I DO THINK THAT OUR DOES A GOOD JOB OF COMMON SENSE ENFORCEMENT. AND THEN YOU'VE GOT TO BALANCE THAT BETWEEN THE COMPLAINT STYLE THAT THESE TYPES I DOUBT WE'RE GOING TO HAVE UNDERCOVER OFFICERS OUT THERE DOING AMPLIFIED, SPEAKER STINGS. I MEAN, THIS IS GOING TO BE MORE ON A COMPLETE BASIS LIKE WE DO WITH ZONING VIOLATIONS OR STUFF OF THAT NATURE. AND ENFORCING IT AS PROBLEMS OCCUR. AND IT HOPEFULLY WE CAN GET AWAY WITH MOST OF THESE THINGS. IF YOU'RE NOT BEING A NUISANCE ABOUT IT ON A GENERAL BASIS. SO I DO AGREE THAT I THINK WE NEED TO ENSURE THAT OUR PART IS WELL MAINTAINED AND PROTECTED AND FREE TO BE USED BY OUR CITIZENS.

I JUST WANT TO ENSURE THAT WE DON'T GET SO CAUGHT UP IN PROTECTING IT THAT WE NOW MAKE IT HARDER FOR OUR CITIZENS TO USE. AND THAT'S THE BALANCE, BETWEEN THE SECURITY AND FREEDOM. IT'S ALWAYS EXISTING.

IT'S A STRING. I'M KIND OF OF THE OPINION LET'S SEE HOW THESE OTHER CHANGES AND TOOLS WE PUT IN HERE ALLOW PT TO DEAL WITH THE PROBLEMS AS THEY ARISE, AND THAT DOESN'T LIMIT

[01:40:04]

THE TIME THAT ARE USED TO BE ABLE TO USE THE FACILITIES.

IT DOES STRENGTHEN THE ENFORCEMENT ABILITY OF THOSE BAD ACTORS. AND SEE HOW THAT SHAKES OUT.

AND THEN IF IT DOESN'T GET THE DESIRED RESULT, THEN WE CAN ALWAYS COME BACK IN AND LIFTED THEM TO 10:00 PM.

BUT WITH ALL THE OTHER CHANGES MAKING GOING INTO THAT SUMMER SEASON, I'M KIND OF THAT CLOCK. LET'S LEAVE THE 11 AND SEE HOW THESE OTHER TOOLS STICK WITH OUR OFFICERS AND OUR PARK STAFF TO BETTER ADMINISTRATE THAT FACILITY FOR OUR RESIDENTS.

AND THEN IF IT'S NOT WORKING, THEY CAN COME BACK AND SAY, HERE, YOUR EXPERIMENT DIDN'T WORK.

WE NEED TO GO AHEAD AND ROLL THAT BACK TO 10:00.

>> MAYOR COFFMAN: WAYNE? >> MR. SHUFFIELD: AND ADD ASPECT. AND I AGREE WITH WHAT THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT THAT THE EXAMPLE POPPED IN MY HEAD, WHEN WE HAVE FOOTAGE LIKE CELEBRATION FIREWORKS AT 9.

AND PEOPLE SITTING AT THE BACK OF THEIR PICKUP OR IN THE PARKING LOT, AND THEY LAUNCH IT AND THEY'RE PLAYING STAR SPANGLED BANNER, VIOLATING THIS ORDINANCE WITH THAT, WITH THE SOUND, AND THEN THE PARK CLOSES AT 10:00 AND THAT MEANS THE GATES ARE GOING TO BE LOCKED, AND NOW PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO STASH. I I CAN SEE SOME UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES BASED UPON SOME OF THIS.

AND I AGREE TOTALLY COME DOING SOMETHING TO GIVE MORE TEETH TO THE OPPORTUNITY FOR BAD ACTORS. WITHOUT VIOLATING SOME -- TO SOME DEGREE AS I CAN SEE SOME OF THESE AS MR. MOORMAN POINTED OUT, A FEW THOUGHTS THAT I HADN'T THOUGHT ABOUT THAT WHILE IT'S SOME OTHER STATINS FROM USE OF THE PARK.

AND SO I DON'T KNOW IF THERE'S TWO OR THREE OF THESE ITEMS, IF THERE'S SOME KIND OF STASH OTHER THAN THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR JUDGMENT AND COMMON SENSE THAT YOU ALL USE. OTHER THAN THAT, IT'S BEEN THAT

WE GO TO THIS ROUTE. >> ABOUT THE CONCERTS THAT THAT WOULD BE EXCLUDED BECAUSE THAT WOULD BE THE -- SO THAT WOULD BE

THE SOLUTIONS TO THIS. >> MAYOR COFFMAN: LET'S MOVE ALONG. IS THERE A MOTION THAT SOMEBODY WANTS TO MAKE

>> I MAKE A MOTION AS PRESENTED WITH THAT REMOVAL OF THE CHANGE IN ITEM 19 REDUCING THE TIME FROM 11:00 PM TO 10:00 PM AT THE

PARKS. >> SECOND.

>> MAYOR COFFMAN: IS THAT CLEAR? MOTION MADE BY COUNCILMAN WEAVER, SECOND BY COUNCILMAN SHUFFIELD.
