We drop it down to 2019. Folks 529 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:28,240 said it 530 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:29,240 was too tall, the four stories would block 531 00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,240 view 532 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:35,240 of the hill country. We 533 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:37,240 heard that for sale 534 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:38,240 was preferable to rental. Folks also 535 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:40,240 said 536 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:44,240 it was too dense at 20.7 units an 537 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,240 acre so we dropped that down to 538 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:49,240 nine units 539 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:53,240 an acre. We heard the impervious 540 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:54,240 cover was too high. We heard that four 541 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:55,240 drive 542 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:56,240 throughs was too many. So we dropped 543 00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:59,240 that down to two. And plus the possibility 544 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:01,240 of a drive through 545 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:02,240 attach today the inline building. We 546 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,240 did all of 547 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:07,640 this by maintaining the 548 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:11,240 amenities. Open space drops because 549 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:13,240 open 550 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:16,640 space is con figured 551 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,240 per the 552 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,240 number of residential units. We have 553 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:23,240 a lot of enhanced landscaping along 554 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,240 the 555 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:28,240 right 556 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:31,240 of way, 557 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:32,240 coal springs road. Retail did drop 558 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:34,240 from 97,000 square 559 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:38,240 feet down to 40. And I have another 560 00:23:38,240 --> 00:23:40,640 slide I will cover 561 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,240 the reasons for that. So maybe 562 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:47,240 I'll hold on that topic for 563 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:49,240 now. But we 564 00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:52,240 did 565 00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:54,240 that maintaining the curb. Keeping 566 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:56,240 a 567 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:58,640 signature restaurant building in 568 00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:00,240 the plan. As well as the inline for 569 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,240 smaller shops 570 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,240 and 571 00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:07,240 restaurants that 572 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:09,240 served the community. So the details on 573 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:11,240 the 574 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:12,240 retail program, 40,000 square foot. 9,500 575 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:14,240 square 576 00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:15,240 foot family concept. That's the picture 577 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,240 on the 578 00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:19,240 top. 7,500 579 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:21,240 square foot signature restaurant. That 580 00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:24,240 is the picture on the 581 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,240 lower left. And we also have 582 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:27,240 16,000 square foot inline shops. And 583 00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:29,240 two 584 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,240 3,500 585 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:35,640 square foot individual buildings. 586 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:37,240 so one of 587 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:39,240 the things asked of us was to look 588 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:40,240 at some of the 589 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,240 other successful projects in buda. So 590 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:44,240 we did that and did a bit of 591 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:45,240 a comparison to show where we stack 592 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,640 up. And I think 593 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:50,640 when you look at 594 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:53,240 it, we 595 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:54,240 have a really contextual project. We 596 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,240 looked at the 597 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:57,240 bend, the corner on main, and compared 598 00:24:57,240 --> 00:25:00,240 that with west oak. So if 599 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,240 you look at land 600 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:03,240 area for example devoted to commercial. We 601 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:04,240 are at 602 00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,240 13 acres in the middle of the pack 603 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:08,240 with others 604 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,240 ranging from nine 605 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:14,240 to 14 606 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:15,240 acres. In terms of building area for 607 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:17,240 commercial, we 608 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:21,240 are at 40,000 feet. Right at the middle 609 00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,240 of the sed, the others 610 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:26,240 are at 50,000, 611 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:29,240 48,000 or 15,000 square feet. We have 612 00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:33,240 a nice anchor. A family concept, 613 00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:35,240 the moon water saloon, tap 614 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:36,240 in golf. Same thing with tenants. Food 615 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:38,240 and 616 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:39,240 beverage related. Service for the 617 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:40,240 local 618 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:42,240 community. And then, amenities, some 619 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,240 folks have a little bit 620 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:48,240 of amenities. The bend has a nice 621 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:51,240 set. We have a nice 622 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:53,640 set. With parks, trails, 623 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,240 outdoor 624 00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,240 uses like pickle ball. And 625 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:00,240 rural heritage. We will have the 40-foot landscape 626 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,640 buffer in the front 627 00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:05,240 of our project which helps 628 00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:06,240 a lot with curb appeal. And we have 629 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:08,240 a 630 00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:09,240 lot of infrastructure we have to bring. A 631 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:11,240 new traffic 632 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:15,840 light. New collector road. Which other 633 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:19,240 projects don't have to do. So those 634 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,240 are the metrics, curb appeal is something that 635 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:23,240 we 636 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:27,240 are, that is very important. It is 637 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,240 to 638 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:33,240 us, the city, to tenants. This image 639 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:35,240 shows what you 640 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:38,240 can 641 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,240 do with landscaping, signage. The 642 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:43,240 highway. This image shows the outdoor 643 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:45,240 family concept. Kind 644 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:47,640 of embedded in the 645 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,240 trees and 646 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:51,240 the park to create a sense of place. This 647 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,240 shows 648 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:54,240 the restaurant building with outdoor 649 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,640 space around it to 650 00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:59,240 kind 651 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,240 of activate the area. Along coal 652 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:03,240 springs road with a multiuse pass 653 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:05,240 to create 654 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:06,240 a nice boulevard effect. This shows 655 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:08,240 how the 656 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,240 whole plan comes together 657 00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:12,240 with the two signature buildings framing 658 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,240 the 659 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:18,840 pond and coal springs road in 660 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:24,240 a park like setting. So in terms 661 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:26,240 of the 662 00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:29,240 residential, the program is 663 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:30,240 215 town home units for sale. This 664 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,240 help it is retail to 665 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:35,240 have this residential 666 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:36,240 behind it. We dropped it down to two 667 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,240 stories. Adds to the development 668 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,640 of housing options in 669 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:47,240 west buda. And 670 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:48,240 more importantly, it is compatible 671 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:49,240 with commercial. The corridor studied 672 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:50,240 to 673 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:51,240 have commercial along the frontage. And 674 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:53,240 some kind 675 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:56,240 of 676 00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:00,240 medium density use behind it. And 677 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,240 we 678 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,240 are 679 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:11,640 basing the town homes 680 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:15,240 off of harvest meadows but 681 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:17,240 we have 682 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:21,240 made some improvements. One of them 683 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,240 being 684 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:24,240 sure we have a 50-foot. A lot of times 685 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:26,240 you don't 686 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:27,240 have the right space for streetscape. And 687 00:28:27,240 --> 00:28:29,240 the other thing we are 688 00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:30,240 doing is increaseing the setback of the 689 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:32,240 buildings of 690 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:34,240 25 feet from 20. To ensure that cars 691 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:36,240 and 692 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:39,240 trucks when they park in the 693 00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:41,240 driveway 694 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:44,240 don't 695 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:50,640 encroach on the sidewalk. 696 00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:53,240 the traffic is 697 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:57,240 reduced by 45%. We are able to 698 00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,640 maintain all of the 699 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:05,240 traffic improvements that 700 00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:08,240 total $6 million. One of each entrance 701 00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:09,240 of safety. The new extension of coal 702 00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:11,240 springs 703 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:12,240 road. These are public roads we build 704 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,640 and dedicate to the 705 00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:17,240 city. These 706 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:21,240 all kind of go along, we 707 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,240 are 708 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:25,240 building a portion of 709 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,240 that. Parks trails and open space, 710 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:29,240 5,000 feet, 711 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:30,240 trails through the projects. Two acres of 712 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:32,640 open space will be 713 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:36,240 accessible to the public. And 714 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,240 a 715 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,240 one acre 716 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,240 private amenity. So now to infrastructure. This 717 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:47,240 slide shows how west okay kind 718 00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:48,240 of fulfills the puzzle. The colony 719 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,240 and the reserve 720 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,240 are 721 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:55,240 bringing roads, traffic, infrastructure, 722 00:29:55,240 --> 00:29:56,240 as well 723 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:58,240 as water and waste water utilities 724 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,240 all 725 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:03,240 the way to 726 00:30:03,240 --> 00:30:04,240 the f.m. 1626 corridor and west oak 727 00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:05,240 completes 728 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:09,440 that. The last piece of the puzzle. 729 00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,640 so there is a 730 00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:18,240 lot of detail on 731 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:19,240 this slide that got cut off. And I 732 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,240 didn't intend to 733 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:22,240 go through every number on this page anyway. But, 734 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,240 the idea was 735 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,240 to show you all the categories of 736 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:31,240 infrastructure that we are bringing. Right? So, 737 00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:33,240 we 738 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,240 are bringing 739 00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:39,240 what utility lines east of f.m. 1626. That is the blue and 740 00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:41,240 orange on the page. We are also up 741 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,240 sizing utilities through west oak. And 742 00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:44,240 that's going 743 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:46,240 west, south, and north. So above and 744 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:49,240 beyond what we are bringing 745 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:51,240 to serve our project. We are up 746 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:52,240 sizing to kind of connect to future 747 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,240 development around 748 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:57,240 us. We are also creating a water loop. So 749 00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:58,240 that again, other developments can 750 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,240 tie 751 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:01,240 in fairly easily. Then we have road 752 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:03,240 and traffic 753 00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:05,240 infrastructure 754 00:31:05,240 --> 00:31:07,240 we have talked about already. Then 755 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:08,240 there are some categories of 756 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,240 other including, you know, the water 757 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:11,240 quality pond and 758 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:13,240 water treatment. And then, a number 759 00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:15,240 of items are 760 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:16,240 going to the residential infrastructure. Some 761 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:18,640 of which is public. 762 00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:27,240 those become public infrastructure. It's 763 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:31,240 a little unfortunate this slide didn't come through and we 764 00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:33,640 had some of this 765 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:36,240 information 766 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,640 we provided to staff. 767 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,240 some of 768 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:54,240 these categories we are proposing 769 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:57,840 impact fee credits for. These items 770 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:01,240 are for the cip. These 771 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:03,240 projects 772 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:06,240 you would have built otherwise. We 773 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:07,240 have a number that is applied for 774 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:09,240 the pid 775 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:11,240 that patrick is going 776 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:13,240 to explain. And I thought I could 777 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:15,640 read that off the 778 00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:18,240 screen 779 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:21,240 but 780 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:23,240 social security not there. 781 00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:24,240 >> and 782 00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:25,240 steven, I see what you see on the 783 00:32:25,240 --> 00:32:26,240 screen. But the link on 784 00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:28,240 the website, it shows the full picture. 785 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:31,240 >> so you guys are able to see 786 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:32,240 it. 787 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:34,240 >> I'm looking at both all 788 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:37,240 the time. But, we do see that is 789 00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:39,240 $19 790 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:42,240 million. 2.6 791 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:44,240 is impact fees. Funded 792 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:46,240 by pid, 7.8 million. It is on the 793 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:48,240 bottom of 794 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:49,240 the screen you can't see, what the developer 795 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,640 pays. If you really 796 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,240 want to, we can 797 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:55,240 kind of switch it and go and make 798 00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:58,240 it. I think this is 799 00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,240 an important page 800 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:02,240 is what I'm getting to. 801 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:03,240 >> if you are 802 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:04,240 able to 803 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:06,240 do 804 00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,240 that, 805 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:11,240 that would be great. 806 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:12,240 >> but 807 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:13,240 as we work on that, you can keep moving 808 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,640 forward. We will find 809 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:17,240 it on the city's website. It is on 810 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:19,240 the presentation for us. So 811 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:20,240 we have it. 812 00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:22,240 >> I 813 00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:24,240 think it 814 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:26,240 is a different slide actually. 815 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:27,240 >> 816 00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:28,240 is 817 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:29,240 there a different file we can call 818 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:31,240 up 819 00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:33,240 up? , is that what you 820 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:34,240 are saying? 821 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:35,240 >> she actually went back to the 822 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:37,240 power point 823 00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:38,240 slide. 824 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:40,240 >> 825 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:42,240 these don't line 826 00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:44,240 up. 827 00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:45,240 >> okay. >> there you 828 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:46,240 go, that's the full picture. We entered 829 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:48,240 comments 830 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,240 like the developers 831 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:53,240 posted to 832 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:55,240 build this infrastructure. We also heard 833 00:33:55,240 --> 00:33:57,240 comments like be 834 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:00,640 careful about asking for 835 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:02,240 incentives. So this was our plan to drag 836 00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:03,240 it ourselves. The 837 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:04,240 city doesn't have the contract to 838 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:05,240 do it. They don't have to manage the 839 00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:06,240 construction 840 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:07,240 of any of these items.

That is 1173 00:46:18,240 --> 00:46:20,240 similar 1174 00:46:21,240 --> 00:46:23,240 to projects like 1175 00:46:24,240 --> 00:46:26,240 persimmon 1176 00:46:26,240 --> 00:46:27,240 that had done something similar. If 1177 00:46:27,240 --> 00:46:29,240 there is a 1178 00:46:29,240 --> 00:46:30,240 lower amount of investment, you might 1179 00:46:30,240 --> 00:46:32,240 not need 1180 00:46:33,240 --> 00:46:36,240 a pid or a mud.

But when 1183 00:46:42,240 --> 00:46:44,240 question drop the 1184 00:46:45,240 --> 00:46:48,240 number of units, the project 1185 00:46:48,240 --> 00:46:49,240 doesn't work without a pid or 1186 00:46:49,240 --> 00:46:50,240 a mud structure. 1187 00:46:50,240 --> 00:46:51,240 >> okay. So then, 1188 00:46:51,240 --> 00:46:54,240 my follow-up question would be 1189 00:46:54,240 --> 00:46:56,240 is if you weren't 1190 00:46:56,240 --> 00:46:57,240 granted a pid, how would you finance 1191 00:46:57,240 --> 00:46:58,240 this? 1192 00:46:58,240 --> 00:47:00,240 >> I don't 1193 00:47:00,240 --> 00:47:02,240 think we can. I don't know 1194 00:47:02,240 --> 00:47:03,240 how we would do it. Maybe a further answer to 1195 00:47:03,240 --> 00:47:05,640 your question is there 1196 00:47:06,240 --> 00:47:08,240 are some 1197 00:47:09,240 --> 00:47:11,240 project that's 1198 00:47:12,240 --> 00:47:13,240 don't have to build the extension 1199 00:47:13,240 --> 00:47:14,240 of 1200 00:47:14,240 --> 00:47:15,240 a public road. Maybe they have water 1201 00:47:15,240 --> 00:47:18,240 and sewer to their property 1202 00:47:18,240 --> 00:47:20,240 and don't have 1203 00:47:21,240 --> 00:47:22,240 as many off site. It is really on 1204 00:47:22,240 --> 00:47:24,240 a site by 1205 00:47:24,240 --> 00:47:27,240 site basis, whether you have 1206 00:47:28,240 --> 00:47:29,240 all of those 1207 00:47:29,240 --> 00:47:31,240 infrastructure items. And how much 1208 00:47:31,240 --> 00:47:33,240 you spend 1209 00:47:35,240 --> 00:47:37,240 over your total project.

The reason behind 1221 00:48:04,240 --> 00:48:06,240 the 1222 00:48:07,240 --> 00:48:09,240 request is really what he 1223 00:48:09,240 --> 00:48:10,240 had described that it provides low 1224 00:48:10,240 --> 00:48:13,240 cost financing alternative that allows 1225 00:48:13,240 --> 00:48:15,240 you 1226 00:48:16,240 --> 00:48:18,640 to put more infrastructure 1227 00:48:19,240 --> 00:48:20,240 in because of the access to 1228 00:48:20,240 --> 00:48:21,240 the tax exempt debt. Basically it 1229 00:48:21,240 --> 00:48:22,240 is lower interest rate. The effect 1230 00:48:22,240 --> 00:48:24,240 of 1231 00:48:25,240 --> 00:48:28,840 the pid, it is money that 1232 00:48:30,240 --> 00:48:31,240 has to be paid back. It is borne by 1233 00:48:31,240 --> 00:48:33,240 taxpayers to the extent 1234 00:48:33,240 --> 00:48:34,240 that someone will buy and pay a town 1235 00:48:34,240 --> 00:48:36,240 home. What they can 1236 00:48:36,240 --> 00:48:37,240 pay for it, it has to be offset by selling 1237 00:48:37,240 --> 00:48:39,240 the town 1238 00:48:40,240 --> 00:48:42,240 home for less for example. To 1239 00:48:42,240 --> 00:48:43,240 make the same payment. So, but since it 1240 00:48:43,240 --> 00:48:46,240 is a cost of debt 1241 00:48:46,240 --> 00:48:49,240 that is lower than what 1242 00:48:49,240 --> 00:48:51,240 you get, just raising debt 1243 00:48:51,240 --> 00:48:52,240 or, traditional debt financing through 1244 00:48:52,240 --> 00:48:53,240 a 1245 00:48:53,240 --> 00:48:55,240 bank. And equity, it improves the 1246 00:48:55,240 --> 00:48:57,640 project economics to the 1247 00:48:58,240 --> 00:49:01,240 extent to allow you to fit more infrastructure 1248 00:49:01,240 --> 00:49:03,240 in. So 1249 00:49:04,240 --> 00:49:05,240 sorry 1250 00:49:05,240 --> 00:49:07,240 for that explanation.

It is 1325 00:51:28,240 --> 00:51:30,240 a little harder 1326 00:51:31,240 --> 00:51:34,240 in the housing market. But 1327 00:51:34,240 --> 00:51:37,240 that is why we need 1328 00:51:37,240 --> 00:51:40,240 this.

They are looking for communities 1333 00:51:55,240 --> 00:51:57,240 south of 1334 00:51:57,240 --> 00:51:58,240 boston and affordability.

Thank you for being 1360 00:52:41,240 --> 00:52:43,240 here tonight. And 1361 00:52:43,240 --> 00:52:44,240 all the presents for providing an 1362 00:52:44,240 --> 00:52:46,240 update. This project 1363 00:52:46,240 --> 00:52:48,240 has 1364 00:52:49,240 --> 00:52:50,240 been going around and around. Trust 1365 00:52:50,240 --> 00:52:51,240 has 1366 00:52:51,240 --> 00:52:54,840 been mentioned. Trust will verify. When 1367 00:52:55,240 --> 00:52:58,840 I hear words like project doesn't 1368 00:52:59,240 --> 00:53:02,240 work, we have a developer 1369 00:53:02,240 --> 00:53:03,240 in front of us. I can 1370 00:53:03,240 --> 00:53:05,240 respect that. I absolutely can. We all 1371 00:53:05,240 --> 00:53:07,240 work to make money to 1372 00:53:07,240 --> 00:53:08,240 support our families. I totally get 1373 00:53:08,240 --> 00:53:09,240 that. We 1374 00:53:09,240 --> 00:53:11,240 have no idea. We are working blindly 1375 00:53:11,240 --> 00:53:13,240 here on what 1376 00:53:13,240 --> 00:53:15,240 that number truly is. We start talking 1377 00:53:15,240 --> 00:53:18,240 about public financing, like pids, 1378 00:53:20,240 --> 00:53:22,240 to change what's out 1379 00:53:22,240 --> 00:53:26,240 there now, into a medium density residential 1380 00:53:26,240 --> 00:53:28,240 development, and we are 1381 00:53:28,240 --> 00:53:29,240 in a year right now where tax rates 1382 00:53:29,240 --> 00:53:31,240 are going 1383 00:53:31,240 --> 00:53:35,240 up. Home values are going down. Revenues 1384 00:53:35,240 --> 00:53:38,240 are tight on the city 1385 00:53:38,240 --> 00:53:41,240 side. And we look at a $400,000 1386 00:53:41,240 --> 00:53:43,240 town 1387 00:53:44,240 --> 00:53:46,240 home and a 1388 00:53:46,240 --> 00:53:47,240 potential 353500 annual additional 1389 00:53:47,240 --> 00:53:48,240 cost. If this trend 1390 00:53:48,240 --> 00:53:50,240 continues that will squeeze the homeowners 1391 00:53:50,240 --> 00:53:52,240 in the future. It will squeeze them, 1392 00:53:52,240 --> 00:53:53,240 it will squeeze us as far as what 1393 00:53:53,240 --> 00:53:55,640 we can expect a 1394 00:53:56,240 --> 00:53:58,240 homeowner to pay in the form 1395 00:53:58,240 --> 00:54:01,240 of all kinds of taxes. Whether it 1396 00:54:01,240 --> 00:54:04,840 is school bonds, city boppeds, property 1397 00:54:05,240 --> 00:54:07,240 taxes. It just 1398 00:54:08,240 --> 00:54:10,240 need to 1399 00:54:11,240 --> 00:54:13,240 be perfect. And the 17 1400 00:54:13,240 --> 00:54:14,240 months I believe you referenced earlier. A 1401 00:54:14,240 --> 00:54:15,240 bait 1402 00:54:15,240 --> 00:54:17,240 and switch was mentioned. That is 1403 00:54:17,240 --> 00:54:18,240 what we are treading here 1404 00:54:18,240 --> 00:54:20,240 on this development. We saw something 1405 00:54:20,240 --> 00:54:21,240 when times were, looked 1406 00:54:21,240 --> 00:54:23,240 like it was workable and every time 1407 00:54:23,240 --> 00:54:25,240 it came back, it was 1408 00:54:25,240 --> 00:54:26,240 a little bit different. And this one, 1409 00:54:26,240 --> 00:54:27,240 the 1410 00:54:27,240 --> 00:54:29,240 financial piece of it is already a 1411 00:54:29,240 --> 00:54:31,240 challenge. It 1412 00:54:32,240 --> 00:54:34,240 is a 1413 00:54:35,240 --> 00:54:36,240 challenge for you guys 1414 00:54:36,240 --> 00:54:38,240 to make the project work. We see the challenge 1415 00:54:38,240 --> 00:54:41,240 it will be on the homeowners. 1416 00:54:41,240 --> 00:54:44,240 that is something we will 1417 00:54:44,240 --> 00:54:46,240 collectively 1418 00:54:49,240 --> 00:54:50,240 have to work out. I would like to 1419 00:54:50,240 --> 00:54:52,240 make 1420 00:54:52,240 --> 00:54:55,840 a recommendation side by side. This 1421 00:54:56,240 --> 00:54:57,240 speak to 1422 00:54:57,240 --> 00:54:59,240 that trust factor. At the beginning 1423 00:54:59,240 --> 00:55:02,240 of the presentation it was 1424 00:55:02,240 --> 00:55:05,240 a side by side comparison 1425 00:55:05,240 --> 00:55:07,240 that favored 1426 00:55:08,240 --> 00:55:09,240 okay let's do this. But then, when 1427 00:55:09,240 --> 00:55:10,240 councilmember williams was asking 1428 00:55:10,240 --> 00:55:13,240 about infrastructure, it gets tough 1429 00:55:14,240 --> 00:55:16,240 to compare 1430 00:55:17,240 --> 00:55:19,240 side by side 1431 00:55:20,240 --> 00:55:23,240 right? So setting a precedent comparing 1432 00:55:23,240 --> 00:55:25,240 the sites, 1433 00:55:26,240 --> 00:55:31,400 just not a good look. So back to 1434 00:55:32,240 --> 00:55:34,240 the 1435 00:55:35,240 --> 00:55:39,440 slide I mentioned. The bend. No residential 1436 00:55:40,240 --> 00:55:41,240 component whatsoever. The shops at 1437 00:55:41,240 --> 00:55:43,640 garlic creek. Quarter and 1438 00:55:44,240 --> 00:55:46,240 main. You 1439 00:55:47,240 --> 00:55:48,240 have this mixed model 1440 00:55:48,240 --> 00:55:50,240 okay? My interpretation of you can't 1441 00:55:50,240 --> 00:55:53,240 compare side by side. Those 1442 00:55:53,240 --> 00:55:56,240 are not good comparisons. They 1443 00:55:59,240 --> 00:56:00,240 are sales tax generating 1444 00:56:00,240 --> 00:56:02,240 commercial retail development. If 1445 00:56:02,240 --> 00:56:05,240 we are going to compare, I want to 1446 00:56:05,240 --> 00:56:07,240 compare 1447 00:56:07,240 --> 00:56:08,240 something apples to apples which you 1448 00:56:08,240 --> 00:56:10,640 guys are willing to 1449 00:56:11,240 --> 00:56:13,240 do it. Buda 1450 00:56:14,240 --> 00:56:16,240 is in a position where 1451 00:56:16,240 --> 00:56:17,240 every project is unique. Every project should 1452 00:56:17,240 --> 00:56:18,240 bring something to the 1453 00:56:18,240 --> 00:56:19,240 community especially when we are going to 1454 00:56:19,240 --> 00:56:20,240 roll out a pid program when we know 1455 00:56:20,240 --> 00:56:21,240 the resident ins 1456 00:56:21,240 --> 00:56:23,240 the future will be wedged between 1457 00:56:23,240 --> 00:56:25,640 paying what they are 1458 00:56:26,240 --> 00:56:29,240 required to pay and watching 1459 00:56:29,240 --> 00:56:30,240 their 1460 00:56:30,240 --> 00:56:32,240 other tax rates fluctuate. That will 1461 00:56:32,240 --> 00:56:34,240 be a challenge 1462 00:56:35,240 --> 00:56:38,240 so we have to nail this. It will be 1463 00:56:38,240 --> 00:56:40,240 amazing. We said this 1464 00:56:40,240 --> 00:56:41,240 in our previous pids. They are not 1465 00:56:41,240 --> 00:56:42,240 just 1466 00:56:42,240 --> 00:56:44,240 there for regular infrastructure. They 1467 00:56:44,240 --> 00:56:46,240 are there for amazing 1468 00:56:46,240 --> 00:56:47,240 blow us away. Which we saw from the 1469 00:56:47,240 --> 00:56:48,240 very first 1470 00:56:48,240 --> 00:56:50,240 presentation. I was sitting right 1471 00:56:50,240 --> 00:56:52,240 here. The drone 1472 00:56:53,240 --> 00:56:55,240 flying over, 1473 00:56:55,240 --> 00:56:56,240 the whole thing. It was amazing. On 1474 00:56:56,240 --> 00:56:58,240 board. Then 1475 00:56:59,240 --> 00:57:00,240 things changed and we were not on 1476 00:57:00,240 --> 00:57:02,240 board. I 1477 00:57:02,240 --> 00:57:04,640 love the workshop environment 1478 00:57:05,240 --> 00:57:07,240 because it allow 1479 00:57:07,240 --> 00:57:08,240 this feedback. I'm nowhere near making 1480 00:57:08,240 --> 00:57:10,240 a commitment 1481 00:57:10,240 --> 00:57:11,240 on anything. Is there is nowhere you 1482 00:57:11,240 --> 00:57:13,240 cannot squeeze the homeowners, 1483 00:57:13,240 --> 00:57:14,240 take on responsibility for the development 1484 00:57:14,240 --> 00:57:16,240 itself and I'm not 1485 00:57:16,240 --> 00:57:17,240 talking about the oversized public 1486 00:57:17,240 --> 00:57:18,240 infrastructure, I understand the impact 1487 00:57:18,240 --> 00:57:19,240 for 1488 00:57:19,240 --> 00:57:20,240 your credit. Not talking about that. We 1489 00:57:20,240 --> 00:57:22,240 are asking you 1490 00:57:22,240 --> 00:57:23,240 guys to oversize. Where you wouldn't 1491 00:57:23,240 --> 00:57:25,240 need 1492 00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:27,240 to. Not even worried about that. That's 1493 00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:28,240 on 1494 00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:29,240 us. But if you guys can lessen the 1495 00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:31,240 future burden 1496 00:57:31,240 --> 00:57:32,240 on these future home buyers, our future 1497 00:57:32,240 --> 00:57:34,240 citizens that 1498 00:57:35,240 --> 00:57:37,240 will come here, you can 1499 00:57:37,240 --> 00:57:38,240 increase your sales tax generators. 1500 00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:41,240 you can very much further down on 1501 00:57:41,240 --> 00:57:43,240 the list behind 1502 00:57:44,240 --> 00:57:46,640 those two. But, make 1503 00:57:47,240 --> 00:57:49,240 it unique. I 1504 00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:53,240 love the buildings further to 1505 00:57:53,240 --> 00:57:55,640 the south, southeast, the 1506 00:57:56,240 --> 00:57:57,240 buildings on the south. When you creep 1507 00:57:57,240 --> 00:57:58,240 back toward the 1508 00:57:58,240 --> 00:57:59,240 north. I didn't see any elevation 1509 00:57:59,240 --> 00:58:02,240 on those so I don't know what 1510 00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:04,240 it looks like from 1511 00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:05,240 the road. It was all aerial on those 1512 00:58:05,240 --> 00:58:07,240 but we got 1513 00:58:07,240 --> 00:58:08,240 nice elevation on those other buildings 1514 00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:10,240 and they look 1515 00:58:11,240 --> 00:58:13,240 amazing. If we 1516 00:58:14,240 --> 00:58:17,240 can match the north side 1517 00:58:17,240 --> 00:58:18,240 I think we are getting closer to a wow factor, 1518 00:58:18,240 --> 00:58:20,240 I will leave 1519 00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:23,240 that up to you guys. But 1520 00:58:23,240 --> 00:58:24,240 feel 1521 00:58:24,240 --> 00:58:26,240 free. It is a workshop. There wasn't 1522 00:58:26,240 --> 00:58:29,240 really a question in there. These 1523 00:58:29,240 --> 00:58:31,240 were 1524 00:58:31,240 --> 00:58:32,240 more observations and comments. 1525 00:58:32,240 --> 00:58:33,240 >> councilmember 1526 00:58:33,240 --> 00:58:35,240 smith, 1527 00:58:35,240 --> 00:58:37,240 I appreciate the 1528 00:58:38,240 --> 00:58:40,240 feedback. That 1529 00:58:41,240 --> 00:58:44,240 is what this is for. There is a lot 1530 00:58:44,240 --> 00:58:46,240 in what you 1531 00:58:47,240 --> 00:58:50,240 said. So I want to 1532 00:58:50,240 --> 00:58:52,240 respond. Maybe first on 1533 00:58:52,240 --> 00:58:54,240 the trust thing. We just can't do 1534 00:58:54,240 --> 00:58:56,640 what we showed you 1535 00:58:57,240 --> 00:59:00,240 back then. We have been trying 1536 00:59:00,240 --> 00:59:02,240 to put this 1537 00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:06,240 together. It ends up being, 1538 00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:07,240 I'll call it a contextual 1539 00:59:07,240 --> 00:59:08,240 project. Something that is similar 1540 00:59:08,240 --> 00:59:09,240 to the other retail projects and I 1541 00:59:09,240 --> 00:59:11,240 will 1542 00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:15,240 get to the side by side 1543 00:59:15,240 --> 00:59:17,240 thing in a minute. I asked 1544 00:59:17,240 --> 00:59:18,240 the staff some questions on this. Like 1545 00:59:18,240 --> 00:59:20,240 what 1546 00:59:20,240 --> 00:59:21,240 should this look like. We went back 1547 00:59:21,240 --> 00:59:22,240 on 1548 00:59:22,240 --> 00:59:25,840 forth on rural heritage. And they 1549 00:59:26,240 --> 00:59:29,240 talked about some examples, circle 1550 00:59:30,240 --> 00:59:32,240 c onslaughter lane was one. That 1551 00:59:32,240 --> 00:59:33,240 is mentioned in the comprehensive plan. So 1552 00:59:33,240 --> 00:59:34,240 I took 1553 00:59:34,240 --> 00:59:36,240 a look at that. You have setbacks 1554 00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:38,240 for trees 1555 00:59:39,240 --> 00:59:41,240 which 1556 00:59:41,240 --> 00:59:42,240 I have. We said okay. We were resisting a 1557 00:59:42,240 --> 00:59:44,240 bit 1558 00:59:45,240 --> 00:59:47,240 on rural 1559 00:59:48,240 --> 00:59:51,240 tore damage. It is very 1560 00:59:51,240 --> 00:59:53,240 specific. It is 1561 00:59:53,240 --> 00:59:54,240 very specific about design criteria. We 1562 00:59:54,240 --> 00:59:55,240 have 1563 00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:57,240 a few tweaks for rural heritage. But 1564 00:59:57,240 --> 01:00:00,240 we said okay, is it 1565 01:00:00,240 --> 01:00:02,240 okay if 1566 01:00:03,240 --> 01:00:05,240 we do 1567 01:00:06,240 --> 01:00:07,240 that? Kind of yeah. So, I get it 1568 01:00:07,240 --> 01:00:09,240 on the wow factor. It is just that 1569 01:00:09,240 --> 01:00:11,240 is 1570 01:00:12,240 --> 01:00:15,240 not something that we can do so 1571 01:00:15,240 --> 01:00:16,240 we are trying to 1572 01:00:16,240 --> 01:00:19,840 do something that is contextual. And 1573 01:00:21,240 --> 01:00:24,240 when you drive around, you see 1574 01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:26,240 a 1575 01:00:27,240 --> 01:00:29,240 lot 1576 01:00:30,240 --> 01:00:33,240 of stone. You see that 1577 01:00:36,240 --> 01:00:38,240 rule character. And we have, we are 1578 01:00:38,240 --> 01:00:39,240 trying to manage how much detail we 1579 01:00:39,240 --> 01:00:40,240 gave you all. But we have 1580 01:00:40,240 --> 01:00:42,240 elevations of the other buildings. They 1581 01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:44,640 match up with the 1582 01:00:45,240 --> 01:00:47,240 udc. They match up 1583 01:00:47,240 --> 01:00:48,240 with rural heritage. So, we are happy 1584 01:00:48,240 --> 01:00:50,240 to do 1585 01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:51,240 that. And, we wanted a mix. An inline 1586 01:00:51,240 --> 01:00:53,240 building 1587 01:00:53,240 --> 01:00:54,240 looks like an inline building but 1588 01:00:54,240 --> 01:00:56,240 if you 1589 01:00:57,240 --> 01:00:58,240 look at circle c, they are like inline 1590 01:00:58,240 --> 01:01:00,240 buildings. They are inline buildings 1591 01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:03,240 with stone. With a lot 1592 01:01:03,240 --> 01:01:05,240 of landscaping around them. So 1593 01:01:05,240 --> 01:01:06,240 we can do that. And when you mentioned 1594 01:01:06,240 --> 01:01:08,240 the side by 1595 01:01:09,240 --> 01:01:10,240 side, 1596 01:01:10,240 --> 01:01:13,840 the infrastructure thing is kind of 1597 01:01:15,240 --> 01:01:16,240 a tricky thing to look 1598 01:01:16,240 --> 01:01:18,240 at. Someone said how much infrastructure 1599 01:01:18,240 --> 01:01:20,240 went into those? And 1600 01:01:20,240 --> 01:01:21,240 we just didn't know. We put the presentation 1601 01:01:21,240 --> 01:01:24,240 together and we have to do it 1602 01:01:24,240 --> 01:01:25,240 like a week out to give it to 1603 01:01:25,240 --> 01:01:27,240 you all. So we can look at that and 1604 01:01:27,240 --> 01:01:30,240 see how much did they 1605 01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:31,240 have to put in for that? Did they 1606 01:01:31,240 --> 01:01:33,240 do 1607 01:01:33,240 --> 01:01:34,240 a traffic 1608 01:01:34,240 --> 01:01:36,240 light or new roads? So, it is kind 1609 01:01:36,240 --> 01:01:39,240 of case by case. You 1610 01:01:42,240 --> 01:01:45,240 know. We have another analysis 1611 01:01:45,240 --> 01:01:46,240 and looked at projects and 1612 01:01:46,240 --> 01:01:48,240 why they needed pid. So we can go 1613 01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:51,240 through that with staff and you all. But 1614 01:01:51,240 --> 01:01:53,640 we are trying to 1615 01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:57,240 get over that hurdle of where we 1616 01:01:57,240 --> 01:02:00,240 were. I have to do some 1617 01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:02,240 math. Two 1618 01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:05,240 years 1619 01:02:06,240 --> 01:02:07,240 ago, something like that. We are trying 1620 01:02:07,240 --> 01:02:08,240 to 1621 01:02:08,240 --> 01:02:09,240 put the pieces together. Responding 1622 01:02:09,240 --> 01:02:11,240 to staff 1623 01:02:11,240 --> 01:02:12,240 comment. And to the zoning and then, 1624 01:02:12,240 --> 01:02:14,240 putting together 1625 01:02:14,240 --> 01:02:15,240 the financing of it. Right? So, we 1626 01:02:15,240 --> 01:02:16,240 are happy 1627 01:02:16,240 --> 01:02:18,240 to kind of walk staff through that 1628 01:02:18,240 --> 01:02:21,240 a little bit more if that's 1629 01:02:21,240 --> 01:02:23,640 the best way to 1630 01:02:24,240 --> 01:02:25,240 do it. So, we hear you. I think we 1631 01:02:25,240 --> 01:02:26,240 have 1632 01:02:26,240 --> 01:02:27,240 addressed it. It is just sometimes, 1633 01:02:27,240 --> 01:02:28,240 we haven't had a chance to talk about 1634 01:02:28,240 --> 01:02:30,240 it. And you know, we have gone through 1635 01:02:30,240 --> 01:02:32,640 a lot of detail 1636 01:02:33,240 --> 01:02:34,240 in the past nine months with this. And 1637 01:02:34,240 --> 01:02:35,240 it 1638 01:02:35,240 --> 01:02:36,240 is hard to get it all in here. Maybe 1639 01:02:36,240 --> 01:02:38,240 after 1640 01:02:38,240 --> 01:02:39,240 this session, we'll talk with staff 1641 01:02:39,240 --> 01:02:41,640 about what's the best 1642 01:02:42,240 --> 01:02:45,240 way to get you folks that information to 1643 01:02:45,240 --> 01:02:47,240 get the 1644 01:02:51,240 --> 01:02:53,240 answers to those questions. 1645 01:02:53,240 --> 01:02:56,240 >> more questions? >> one more question 1646 01:02:57,240 --> 01:02:59,240 on the 1647 01:03:00,240 --> 01:03:02,240 financial side.

When 1665 01:03:36,240 --> 01:03:39,240 we were looking at the $3,500 on average we 1666 01:03:39,240 --> 01:03:42,240 thought just so you guys 1667 01:03:42,240 --> 01:03:45,240 could get an idea. When we 1668 01:03:45,240 --> 01:03:47,240 say 1669 01:03:47,240 --> 01:03:48,240 88 cents per assessed value, so the way 1670 01:03:48,240 --> 01:03:50,240 you look at 1671 01:03:50,240 --> 01:03:51,240 it from the retail, the retailers 1672 01:03:51,240 --> 01:03:53,240 would be paying 1673 01:03:54,240 --> 01:03:57,240 their fair share based on 1674 01:03:57,240 --> 01:03:59,640 their estimated value as 1675 01:04:00,240 --> 01:04:02,640 well. Of 88 cents per 1676 01:04:03,240 --> 01:04:04,240 assessed value. That way it 1677 01:04:04,240 --> 01:04:06,240 is being equitable. Consistent with 1678 01:04:06,240 --> 01:04:07,240 the legal requirements that we have 1679 01:04:07,240 --> 01:04:09,240 to 1680 01:04:09,240 --> 01:04:11,240 pursue when 1681 01:04:12,240 --> 01:04:13,240 creating a public improvement district. 1682 01:04:13,240 --> 01:04:15,240 >> okay. >> 1683 01:04:16,240 --> 01:04:18,240 we just don't have that 1684 01:04:18,240 --> 01:04:19,240 on a per unit basis. 1685 01:04:19,240 --> 01:04:20,240 >> just a couple of 1686 01:04:20,240 --> 01:04:24,440 other comments and stuff.

And I think as you 1893 01:11:43,240 --> 01:11:44,240 mentioned, the pid rate overall as 1894 01:11:44,240 --> 01:11:46,240 a line, 1895 01:11:47,240 --> 01:11:50,240 we are looking at that $3,500 as well 1896 01:11:50,240 --> 01:11:53,240 as the pid rate and looking at communities 1897 01:11:53,240 --> 01:11:54,240 in and around buda as well to make 1898 01:11:54,240 --> 01:11:56,240 sure 1899 01:11:56,240 --> 01:11:59,240 that we are not boxing ourselves 1900 01:11:59,240 --> 01:12:01,240 out from a competitive standpoint. We 1901 01:12:01,240 --> 01:12:02,240 wanted to make sure we were competitive 1902 01:12:02,240 --> 01:12:03,240 with other 1903 01:12:03,240 --> 01:12:05,240 project ins the area. The other thing 1904 01:12:05,240 --> 01:12:07,240 we wanted to look at as we 1905 01:12:07,240 --> 01:12:08,240 are doing this and coming back. I 1906 01:12:08,240 --> 01:12:10,240 would like 1907 01:12:10,240 --> 01:12:11,240 to just kind of reiterate item is 1908 01:12:11,240 --> 01:12:13,240 we are voluntarily 1909 01:12:14,240 --> 01:12:16,240 annexing the property 1910 01:12:17,240 --> 01:12:19,240 into the 1911 01:12:20,240 --> 01:12:22,240 city to bring property tax revenues 1912 01:12:22,240 --> 01:12:23,240 into the city of buda.

We 1916 01:12:29,240 --> 01:12:32,240 didn't want the city to have to 1917 01:12:32,240 --> 01:12:34,240 participate to 1918 01:12:34,240 --> 01:12:35,240 buy that down further.

Because you bought 2011 01:15:57,240 --> 01:15:59,240 into a 2012 01:16:00,240 --> 01:16:03,240 pid. What's a pid? We have those conversations.

If 2036 01:17:00,240 --> 01:17:03,240 you would flip back to the 2037 01:17:03,240 --> 01:17:04,240 one we are trying to expand. I hate 2038 01:17:04,240 --> 01:17:06,240 to use 2039 01:17:06,240 --> 01:17:08,240 the 2040 01:17:08,240 --> 01:17:09,240 word color of money.

But I don't 2066 01:18:10,240 --> 01:18:12,240 think 2067 01:18:13,240 --> 01:18:15,240 that 2068 01:18:16,240 --> 01:18:18,240 pid should pay 2069 01:18:19,240 --> 01:18:20,240 for 2070 01:18:20,240 --> 01:18:21,240 excavation and grating.

I 2088 01:18:52,240 --> 01:18:54,240 am 2089 01:18:55,240 --> 01:18:57,240 glad 2090 01:18:58,240 --> 01:19:01,240 you have that answer. I 2091 01:19:01,240 --> 01:19:02,240 said this from 2092 01:19:02,240 --> 01:19:04,240 the very beginning. Through the projects 2093 01:19:04,240 --> 01:19:07,240 we have on coal springs. The 2094 01:19:07,240 --> 01:19:10,240 bridge on coal springs. All 2095 01:19:10,240 --> 01:19:12,240 of those 2096 01:19:13,240 --> 01:19:16,240 things are creating the avenue 2097 01:19:16,240 --> 01:19:18,240 to pull it 2098 01:19:19,240 --> 01:19:20,240 across 1626 which 2099 01:19:20,240 --> 01:19:22,240 would rejuvenate, accelerate this whole 2100 01:19:22,240 --> 01:19:24,240 area. And the 2101 01:19:25,240 --> 01:19:27,240 water loop 2102 01:19:28,240 --> 01:19:31,240 doing the same thing. What you are 2103 01:19:31,240 --> 01:19:32,240 offering I don't take lightly, I appreciate the 2104 01:19:32,240 --> 01:19:34,240 infrastructure you are bringing to 2105 01:19:34,240 --> 01:19:37,240 the area. It is not four stories, 2106 01:19:37,240 --> 01:19:39,240 600 units 2107 01:19:40,240 --> 01:19:42,240 that 2108 01:19:46,240 --> 01:19:49,240 we were looking at. The 2109 01:19:49,240 --> 01:19:51,240 first time 2110 01:19:51,240 --> 01:19:52,240 around. It seemed heavy. I would like 2111 01:19:52,240 --> 01:19:53,240 to understand 2112 01:19:53,240 --> 01:19:55,240 it a little more. As to what goes 2113 01:19:55,240 --> 01:19:57,640 in the pid and 2114 01:19:58,240 --> 01:20:00,240 you 2115 01:20:01,240 --> 01:20:03,240 guys. In 2116 01:20:07,240 --> 01:20:09,640 your mind at least. 2117 01:20:10,240 --> 01:20:13,240 what is impact fee items that could 2118 01:20:13,240 --> 01:20:15,240 be 2119 01:20:19,240 --> 01:20:22,240 and should be used. You came 2120 01:20:22,240 --> 01:20:24,240 to this 2121 01:20:25,240 --> 01:20:28,240 meeting with a list of list 2122 01:20:28,240 --> 01:20:31,240 of wishes and goals. Do you 2123 01:20:31,240 --> 01:20:33,240 need something 2124 01:20:33,240 --> 01:20:34,240 else from us? 2125 01:20:34,240 --> 01:20:35,240 >> I think there is 2126 01:20:35,240 --> 01:20:37,240 just rolling your sleeves up 2127 01:20:37,240 --> 01:20:40,240 to work on it. And we had a 2128 01:20:40,240 --> 01:20:43,240 call with y'all, you have a pid consultant. We 2129 01:20:43,240 --> 01:20:44,240 had patrick. A call last week to start 2130 01:20:44,240 --> 01:20:46,240 that 2131 01:20:46,240 --> 01:20:48,640 dialogue. There is probably 2132 01:20:49,240 --> 01:20:51,240 a little more 2133 01:20:52,240 --> 01:20:54,240 financial 2134 01:20:55,240 --> 01:20:57,240 engineering to get that 2135 01:20:57,240 --> 01:20:58,240 right. There will be a little more 2136 01:20:58,240 --> 01:21:01,240 work for you all to tease that 2137 01:21:01,240 --> 01:21:04,240 out to optimize that and 2138 01:21:04,240 --> 01:21:06,240 get it 2139 01:21:06,240 --> 01:21:07,240 where it should be. So one request, 2140 01:21:07,240 --> 01:21:09,240 we will get 2141 01:21:10,240 --> 01:21:12,240 the pid right. The other one will 2142 01:21:12,240 --> 01:21:13,240 be, we understand the comments about 2143 01:21:13,240 --> 01:21:16,240 what we had showed y'all 2144 01:21:16,240 --> 01:21:18,240 a few years ago right? And I think 2145 01:21:18,240 --> 01:21:19,240 we have had this cross to bear since 2146 01:21:19,240 --> 01:21:21,640 then. And we are 2147 01:21:22,240 --> 01:21:25,240 trying to do good work 2148 01:21:25,240 --> 01:21:27,240 to bring 2149 01:21:28,240 --> 01:21:30,240 back a good 2150 01:21:31,240 --> 01:21:33,640 project. Nobody can tell 2151 01:21:34,240 --> 01:21:36,240 us 2152 01:21:40,240 --> 01:21:42,640 what it will be. 2153 01:21:49,240 --> 01:21:51,240 nobody is elsing us if you do it 2154 01:21:51,240 --> 01:21:52,240 in this buildings, it will work. Even 2155 01:21:52,240 --> 01:21:54,240 if we are following the 2156 01:21:54,240 --> 01:21:55,240 corridor study and the comprehensive 2157 01:21:55,240 --> 01:21:57,240 plan. So 2158 01:21:58,240 --> 01:22:00,240 it would 2159 01:22:00,240 --> 01:22:01,240 be good to get, and I'm not asking 2160 01:22:01,240 --> 01:22:03,240 y'all to do that here. I would 2161 01:22:03,240 --> 01:22:04,240 be good to get a little more guidance 2162 01:22:04,240 --> 01:22:06,240 on okay, we 2163 01:22:07,240 --> 01:22:09,640 like this. If you 2164 01:22:10,240 --> 01:22:12,240 guys can change 2165 01:22:12,240 --> 01:22:13,240 that. It will work. We do have some 2166 01:22:13,240 --> 01:22:15,240 modifications but we 2167 01:22:16,240 --> 01:22:17,240 have cut the modifications. We had over 2168 01:22:17,240 --> 01:22:18,240 30 2169 01:22:18,240 --> 01:22:20,240 modifications in the other project. Because 2170 01:22:20,240 --> 01:22:22,240 it was 2171 01:22:23,240 --> 01:22:24,240 apartments 2172 01:22:24,240 --> 01:22:26,240 and more complicated project. If question 2173 01:22:26,240 --> 01:22:29,240 can look at it and live 2174 01:22:29,240 --> 01:22:31,640 with it, we cut 2175 01:22:32,240 --> 01:22:34,240 it 2176 01:22:35,240 --> 01:22:36,240 out as a 2177 01:22:36,240 --> 01:22:38,240 modification. What you want the buildings to 2178 01:22:38,240 --> 01:22:40,240 look 2179 01:22:44,240 --> 01:22:45,240 like and what works. 2180 01:22:45,240 --> 01:22:46,240 >> that's 2181 01:22:46,240 --> 01:22:47,240 what I was talking about. This is 2182 01:22:47,240 --> 01:22:49,240 more of 2183 01:22:49,240 --> 01:22:50,240 a financial discussion. But that is 2184 01:22:50,240 --> 01:22:52,240 a 2185 01:22:52,240 --> 01:22:53,240 question that I have is exactly that. If 2186 01:22:53,240 --> 01:22:55,240 it 2187 01:22:56,240 --> 01:22:58,640 is a planned development, 2188 01:22:59,240 --> 01:23:00,240 it has a list of the wants and tweaks. If 2189 01:23:00,240 --> 01:23:02,240 you walked in and said I will build 2190 01:23:02,240 --> 01:23:04,240 everything according 2191 01:23:05,240 --> 01:23:07,240 to your zoning book and 2192 01:23:07,240 --> 01:23:08,240 everything is fine, I think the road 2193 01:23:08,240 --> 01:23:09,240 sizes and 2194 01:23:09,240 --> 01:23:11,240 the density and the driveway sizes 2195 01:23:11,240 --> 01:23:13,240 and some of 2196 01:23:13,240 --> 01:23:14,240 that other stuff plays into a little 2197 01:23:14,240 --> 01:23:17,240 bit. But that is further 2198 01:23:17,240 --> 01:23:19,640 in this conversation than 2199 01:23:20,240 --> 01:23:22,240 this 2200 01:23:23,240 --> 01:23:24,240 evening is planned for. 2201 01:23:24,240 --> 01:23:26,240 >> we have 2202 01:23:26,240 --> 01:23:29,240 a couple of tweak to 2203 01:23:32,240 --> 01:23:34,640 the town home roads. 2204 01:23:41,240 --> 01:23:43,240 it 2205 01:23:43,240 --> 01:23:44,240 is 100% stone. And you will see this 2206 01:23:44,240 --> 01:23:46,240 building for example. As 2207 01:23:46,240 --> 01:23:47,240 stone, but also some wood. And some 2208 01:23:47,240 --> 01:23:48,240 metal 2209 01:23:48,240 --> 01:23:50,240 panels. So we ask for some flexibility 2210 01:23:50,240 --> 01:23:52,240 in design 2211 01:23:53,240 --> 01:23:54,240 on that. But it is really 2212 01:23:54,240 --> 01:23:56,240 not a dramatic modification we were 2213 01:23:56,240 --> 01:23:57,240 looking for before. 2214 01:23:57,240 --> 01:23:58,240 >> 2215 01:23:58,240 --> 01:23:59,240 that is good to know. This is all 2216 01:23:59,240 --> 01:24:01,640 a workshop. I'm looking 2217 01:24:02,240 --> 01:24:04,240 left 2218 01:24:05,240 --> 01:24:07,240 and 2219 01:24:10,240 --> 01:24:11,240 right. See if anyone else. 2220 01:24:11,240 --> 01:24:12,240 >> the 2221 01:24:12,240 --> 01:24:14,240 applicant will be going 2222 01:24:14,240 --> 01:24:15,240 back and forth through zoning commission 2223 01:24:15,240 --> 01:24:17,240 for their pid. That would be coming 2224 01:24:17,240 --> 01:24:20,240 back at some point in 2225 01:24:20,240 --> 01:24:22,240 the next few months. They have 2226 01:24:22,240 --> 01:24:26,240 not officially applied for a pid yet. So 2227 01:24:26,240 --> 01:24:28,240 we have had a 2228 01:24:28,240 --> 01:24:29,240 few conversations with them with our 2229 01:24:29,240 --> 01:24:31,240 pid consultant who has not been 2230 01:24:31,240 --> 01:24:32,240 engaged to start a pid review with 2231 01:24:32,240 --> 01:24:33,240 them. I believe that is 2232 01:24:33,240 --> 01:24:35,240 happening very soon. They want him 2233 01:24:35,240 --> 01:24:38,240 to get the pulse and temperature 2234 01:24:38,240 --> 01:24:40,240 from 2235 01:24:41,240 --> 01:24:43,240 city council before doing that. If 2236 01:24:43,240 --> 01:24:44,240 city council is open to the idea of 2237 01:24:44,240 --> 01:24:47,240 exploring pid more, it will be 2238 01:24:47,240 --> 01:24:49,240 to 2239 01:24:49,240 --> 01:24:52,840 make the pid application. We partner 2240 01:24:53,240 --> 01:24:55,240 or contract with 2241 01:24:55,240 --> 01:24:56,240 p3 works. P3 works will come in along 2242 01:24:56,240 --> 01:24:58,240 with our financial 2243 01:24:58,240 --> 01:24:59,240 advisers and that entire team. And 2244 01:24:59,240 --> 01:25:01,240 they will do 2245 01:25:02,240 --> 01:25:04,240 a 2246 01:25:04,240 --> 01:25:05,240 really deep analysis of this pid and make 2247 01:25:05,240 --> 01:25:07,240 sure 2248 01:25:08,240 --> 01:25:09,240 it 2249 01:25:09,240 --> 01:25:11,240 will pay for itself. And, that built 2250 01:25:11,240 --> 01:25:12,240 in look 2251 01:25:12,240 --> 01:25:14,240 at the bonds themselves, and start 2252 01:25:14,240 --> 01:25:16,240 setting that 2253 01:25:17,240 --> 01:25:20,240 up for success. So that 2254 01:25:20,240 --> 01:25:23,240 if council if and when the 2255 01:25:23,240 --> 01:25:26,240 pid comes to city council, 2256 01:25:26,240 --> 01:25:29,240 you'll have all that information 2257 01:25:29,240 --> 01:25:32,240 to make an informed decision.

And open 2312 01:27:39,240 --> 01:27:40,240 it up for questions. 2313 01:27:40,240 --> 01:27:42,240 >> 2314 01:27:42,240 --> 01:27:44,640 thank you erin. I 2315 01:27:45,240 --> 01:27:47,240 was part 2316 01:27:48,240 --> 01:27:51,240 of the study team. We 2317 01:27:51,240 --> 01:27:53,240 did 2318 01:27:54,240 --> 01:27:55,240 want the 2319 01:27:55,240 --> 01:27:57,240 presentation last january. The purpose of 2320 01:27:57,240 --> 01:27:59,240 the 2321 01:28:00,240 --> 01:28:02,240 study 2322 01:28:03,240 --> 01:28:05,240 began 2323 01:28:06,240 --> 01:28:08,240 in 2324 01:28:12,240 --> 01:28:14,240 fall of 2022. Local partners, 2325 01:28:14,240 --> 01:28:15,240 we are working in collaboration to 2326 01:28:15,240 --> 01:28:17,240 develop a solution that 2327 01:28:17,240 --> 01:28:18,240 works well for the area and considers 2328 01:28:18,240 --> 01:28:20,240 the 2329 01:28:21,240 --> 01:28:23,640 interesting concerns of all 2330 01:28:24,240 --> 01:28:26,240 involved. The goals of the 2331 01:28:26,240 --> 01:28:27,240 study, do things in a productive and 2332 01:28:27,240 --> 01:28:29,240 clear way. We 2333 01:28:30,240 --> 01:28:32,240 collected input from wide range 2334 01:28:32,240 --> 01:28:33,240 of stake holders that identify conceptual 2335 01:28:33,240 --> 01:28:35,240 route 2336 01:28:35,240 --> 01:28:36,240 options and work to minimize impacts 2337 01:28:36,240 --> 01:28:38,240 on current and 2338 01:28:38,240 --> 01:28:39,240 future development. We also wanted 2339 01:28:39,240 --> 01:28:41,240 to identify strategies to 2340 01:28:41,240 --> 01:28:42,240 protect the environment and follow 2341 01:28:42,240 --> 01:28:45,240 best practices for doing so. 2342 01:28:48,240 --> 01:28:50,240 consistent with that, the study we 2343 01:28:50,240 --> 01:28:51,240 met with staff from several cities 2344 01:28:51,240 --> 01:28:53,240 and surrounding agencies, 2345 01:28:54,240 --> 01:28:56,240 we 2346 01:28:57,240 --> 01:28:59,240 had 2347 01:29:00,240 --> 01:29:02,240 three meetings with staff. We had 2348 01:29:02,240 --> 01:29:03,240 met with various property owners. Had 2349 01:29:03,240 --> 01:29:05,240 a total 2350 01:29:06,240 --> 01:29:08,240 of 26 of those meetings. We 2351 01:29:08,240 --> 01:29:09,240 conducted three open houses, june 2352 01:29:09,240 --> 01:29:11,240 and december of 2353 01:29:12,240 --> 01:29:14,240 2023. And 2354 01:29:15,240 --> 01:29:17,240 then in 2355 01:29:18,240 --> 01:29:19,240 august of 2024. What we 2356 01:29:19,240 --> 01:29:21,240 learned from that, this was about 2357 01:29:21,240 --> 01:29:23,240 a year on this 2358 01:29:23,240 --> 01:29:24,240 map. It is not 100% up to date. What 2359 01:29:24,240 --> 01:29:26,240 we learned during 2360 01:29:27,240 --> 01:29:29,240 that process from the landowners 2361 01:29:29,240 --> 01:29:30,240 is that the yellow hatched areas are 2362 01:29:30,240 --> 01:29:32,240 areas 2363 01:29:33,240 --> 01:29:35,240 that are planned 2364 01:29:36,240 --> 01:29:37,240 to be developed. That included nearly 2365 01:29:37,240 --> 01:29:38,240 900 2366 01:29:38,240 --> 01:29:39,240 acres. 27% of the study area was planned 2367 01:29:39,240 --> 01:29:41,240 for development 2368 01:29:42,240 --> 01:29:43,240 as of that 2369 01:29:43,240 --> 01:29:44,240 time. So, that underscores the need 2370 01:29:44,240 --> 01:29:45,240 to develop what the infrastuckture 2371 01:29:45,240 --> 01:29:47,240 needs 2372 01:29:48,240 --> 01:29:50,240 will be for this 2373 01:29:50,240 --> 01:29:51,240 area as that development continues. The 2374 01:29:51,240 --> 01:29:53,240 first open 2375 01:29:54,240 --> 01:29:56,240 house is conducted june of 2023 at 2376 01:29:56,240 --> 01:29:57,240 sunfield station. We had both an in-person 2377 01:29:57,240 --> 01:29:59,240 open 2378 01:30:00,240 --> 01:30:01,240 house and a virtual online one. We 2379 01:30:01,240 --> 01:30:03,240 had 2380 01:30:03,240 --> 01:30:05,240 more than 60 2381 01:30:06,240 --> 01:30:08,240 people 2382 01:30:09,240 --> 01:30:12,240 in the in-person one. We had 615 2383 01:30:12,240 --> 01:30:14,240 unique views 2384 01:30:14,240 --> 01:30:15,240 on the website. We responded to all 2385 01:30:15,240 --> 01:30:16,240 the 2386 01:30:16,240 --> 01:30:18,240 comments received and summarized that 2387 01:30:18,240 --> 01:30:21,240 in a pronounced summary report that 2388 01:30:21,240 --> 01:30:22,240 included a matrix of all those comment 2389 01:30:22,240 --> 01:30:24,240 responses. That 2390 01:30:24,240 --> 01:30:26,240 was posted on 2391 01:30:27,240 --> 01:30:28,240 the website. In addition to that, 2392 01:30:28,240 --> 01:30:30,240 we have 2393 01:30:30,240 --> 01:30:33,240 large maps we put input on 2394 01:30:33,240 --> 01:30:35,240 the public. I 2395 01:30:36,240 --> 01:30:38,240 will 2396 01:30:39,240 --> 01:30:41,240 show 2397 01:30:41,240 --> 01:30:42,240 you those here. The in-person open 2398 01:30:42,240 --> 01:30:44,240 house. They 2399 01:30:45,240 --> 01:30:48,240 are kind of magenta shading. What 2400 01:30:48,240 --> 01:30:50,240 we 2401 01:30:51,240 --> 01:30:53,240 got from the 2402 01:30:53,240 --> 01:30:54,240 in-person. We took all the comments, 2403 01:30:54,240 --> 01:30:56,240 we put 2404 01:30:57,240 --> 01:30:58,240 them together. Created one, all inclusive 2405 01:30:58,240 --> 01:31:00,240 map 2406 01:31:03,240 --> 01:31:05,240 of all the 2407 01:31:05,240 --> 01:31:06,240 suggestions. What you see, aggregated 2408 01:31:06,240 --> 01:31:07,240 those. Almost all of 2409 01:31:07,240 --> 01:31:09,240 them reflected similar concept. You 2410 01:31:09,240 --> 01:31:12,240 see in the light blue. One exception 2411 01:31:12,240 --> 01:31:15,240 was in the red. We got one 2412 01:31:15,240 --> 01:31:16,240 suggestion for a more northerly route. All 2413 01:31:16,240 --> 01:31:18,240 other 2414 01:31:18,240 --> 01:31:20,640 suggestions were kind of 2415 01:31:21,240 --> 01:31:22,240 had a similar concept there toward 2416 01:31:22,240 --> 01:31:24,240 the southern 2417 01:31:24,240 --> 01:31:27,240 or central part of the study 2418 01:31:27,240 --> 01:31:30,240 area. After that, we worked to apply 2419 01:31:30,240 --> 01:31:31,240 engineering standards to these suggestions 2420 01:31:31,240 --> 01:31:33,240 and develop 2421 01:31:34,240 --> 01:31:36,640 actual routes that we 2422 01:31:37,240 --> 01:31:39,240 could apply our analysis 2423 01:31:39,240 --> 01:31:40,240 to. So what you see here is those 2424 01:31:40,240 --> 01:31:42,240 route 2425 01:31:43,240 --> 01:31:45,240 suggestions with 2426 01:31:47,240 --> 01:31:49,640 the engineering criteria applied. 2427 01:31:55,240 --> 01:31:57,240 would 2428 01:31:57,240 --> 01:31:58,240 have had three residential displacements. Also 2429 01:31:58,240 --> 01:31:59,240 the 2430 01:31:59,240 --> 01:32:01,240 engineering technical side of that 2431 01:32:01,240 --> 01:32:02,240 was less desirable mainly 2432 01:32:02,240 --> 01:32:04,240 because it crossed, as you can see 2433 01:32:04,240 --> 01:32:06,240 there, 2434 01:32:07,240 --> 01:32:09,240 toward the 2435 01:32:10,240 --> 01:32:11,240 middle of the large bend. And 2436 01:32:11,240 --> 01:32:13,240 crossed large floodplain areas in 2437 01:32:13,240 --> 01:32:16,240 onion and garlic creeks. As 2438 01:32:16,240 --> 01:32:17,240 an effort to minimize the 2439 01:32:17,240 --> 01:32:19,240 impacts, we modified that red alignment to 2440 01:32:19,240 --> 01:32:21,240 what 2441 01:32:22,240 --> 01:32:25,240 you see in the yellow. That 2442 01:32:25,240 --> 01:32:27,240 removed 2443 01:32:28,240 --> 01:32:30,240 the crossing of the 2444 01:32:30,240 --> 01:32:31,240 bend. The crossing of the floodplains 2445 01:32:31,240 --> 01:32:33,240 for 2446 01:32:33,240 --> 01:32:35,240 the eastern side there. The blue route 2447 01:32:35,240 --> 01:32:37,240 represented all the other suggestions. That 2448 01:32:37,240 --> 01:32:40,240 route had no displacements as of 2449 01:32:40,240 --> 01:32:42,240 the 2450 01:32:46,240 --> 01:32:48,640 time of the study. 2451 01:32:49,240 --> 01:32:51,240 avoided that 2452 01:32:52,240 --> 01:32:55,240 bend in little bear creek. 2453 01:32:55,240 --> 01:32:57,240 from that 2454 01:32:58,240 --> 01:33:00,240 analysis, we recommended 2455 01:33:01,240 --> 01:33:03,240 for 2456 01:33:04,240 --> 01:33:07,240 further study, in the blue. That was presented 2457 01:33:07,240 --> 01:33:10,240 at the second open house 2458 01:33:10,240 --> 01:33:13,240 in december. As of that time, had 2459 01:33:13,240 --> 01:33:14,240 no displacements. Had 2460 01:33:14,240 --> 01:33:17,240 that more desirable engineering perspective 2461 01:33:19,240 --> 01:33:20,240 and less 2462 01:33:20,240 --> 01:33:22,240 of that floodplain impact. And then 2463 01:33:22,240 --> 01:33:23,240 for those reasons 2464 01:33:23,240 --> 01:33:26,240 we eliminated from further consideration 2465 01:33:28,240 --> 01:33:30,240 in 2466 01:33:31,240 --> 01:33:33,240 black those northern routes. 2467 01:33:33,240 --> 01:33:34,240 the preliminary recommendation, it was 2468 01:33:34,240 --> 01:33:36,240 not 2469 01:33:37,240 --> 01:33:38,240 finalized at this time. And 2470 01:33:38,240 --> 01:33:40,240 subject to further retirement assumeing 2471 01:33:40,240 --> 01:33:42,240 the project 2472 01:33:42,240 --> 01:33:43,240 would continue into future phases. Along that 2473 01:33:43,240 --> 01:33:45,240 line, you see 2474 01:33:46,240 --> 01:33:49,240 we looked at a couple of 2475 01:33:49,240 --> 01:33:51,640 different options, what that 2476 01:33:52,240 --> 01:33:54,240 configuration 2477 01:33:55,240 --> 01:33:57,240 would look like. Consistent with 2478 01:33:57,240 --> 01:33:58,240 what it looks like. We assume the 2479 01:33:58,240 --> 01:34:00,240 gap project 2480 01:34:00,240 --> 01:34:01,240 would be controlled access. Which 2481 01:34:01,240 --> 01:34:03,240 means no 2482 01:34:04,240 --> 01:34:06,640 direct driveways or cross 2483 01:34:07,240 --> 01:34:09,240 streets 2484 01:34:10,240 --> 01:34:11,240 crossing the lanes. And we looked 2485 01:34:11,240 --> 01:34:12,240 at 2486 01:34:12,240 --> 01:34:13,240 two options. One with and one without 2487 01:34:13,240 --> 01:34:15,240 frontage roads and 2488 01:34:16,240 --> 01:34:18,240 the 2489 01:34:18,240 --> 01:34:19,240 final concept could include some frontage 2490 01:34:19,240 --> 01:34:21,240 roads 2491 01:34:22,240 --> 01:34:24,240 or not. Also 2492 01:34:25,240 --> 01:34:27,240 note, 2493 01:34:28,240 --> 01:34:29,240 the shared use path 2494 01:34:29,240 --> 01:34:31,240 which would accommodate the users 2495 01:34:31,240 --> 01:34:34,240 along the route. So, with these 2496 01:34:34,240 --> 01:34:36,240 concept, we created two right away 2497 01:34:36,240 --> 01:34:37,240 footprints. One would be about 250 2498 01:34:37,240 --> 01:34:38,240 feet ride. At the 2499 01:34:38,240 --> 01:34:40,240 top there. Without frontage roads. And 2500 01:34:40,240 --> 01:34:43,240 if you had the frontage 2501 01:34:43,240 --> 01:34:45,240 roads that 2502 01:34:46,240 --> 01:34:48,240 was about a 400-foot wide. So, 2503 01:34:48,240 --> 01:34:49,240 we took those footprints. Applied 2504 01:34:49,240 --> 01:34:51,240 some 2505 01:34:51,240 --> 01:34:54,840 criteria to those. And then looked 2506 01:34:55,240 --> 01:34:58,240 at what the evaluation of those would 2507 01:34:58,240 --> 01:35:01,240 be. The table here shows impacts 2508 01:35:01,240 --> 01:35:04,240 from the two scenarios. Would 2509 01:35:04,240 --> 01:35:06,640 result again in no 2510 01:35:07,240 --> 01:35:09,240 residential or commercial 2511 01:35:09,240 --> 01:35:10,240 displacements. Also, no impacts were 2512 01:35:10,240 --> 01:35:12,240 being anticipated 2513 01:35:12,240 --> 01:35:13,240 to facilities like schools, hospitals, 2514 01:35:13,240 --> 01:35:15,240 emergency services, 2515 01:35:16,240 --> 01:35:18,640 dedicated parkland cemeteries, short 2516 01:35:19,240 --> 01:35:21,640 properties, oil gas wells 2517 01:35:22,240 --> 01:35:24,240 or other 2518 01:35:28,240 --> 01:35:30,640 hazardous material site sites. 2519 01:35:33,240 --> 01:35:34,240 we had an in-person component there. We 2520 01:35:34,240 --> 01:35:36,240 had the 2521 01:35:37,240 --> 01:35:40,240 online option as well. We 2522 01:35:40,240 --> 01:35:42,240 had a few 2523 01:35:43,240 --> 01:35:45,240 more 2524 01:35:46,240 --> 01:35:48,240 attendees to that one. 797 unique 2525 01:35:48,240 --> 01:35:49,240 views on the website. It is as with 2526 01:35:49,240 --> 01:35:51,640 the first open house, 2527 01:35:52,240 --> 01:35:54,240 we 2528 01:35:55,240 --> 01:35:57,240 got all 2529 01:35:58,240 --> 01:36:00,240 those 2530 01:36:01,240 --> 01:36:04,240 comments responded no those. Coming 2531 01:36:04,240 --> 01:36:06,240 out of 2532 01:36:07,240 --> 01:36:08,240 that second open house, 2533 01:36:08,240 --> 01:36:10,240 we provided refinements. What you 2534 01:36:10,240 --> 01:36:12,240 see in 2535 01:36:13,240 --> 01:36:15,240 blue there 2536 01:36:16,240 --> 01:36:19,240 is the preliminary route. We refine 2537 01:36:19,240 --> 01:36:21,240 that to the 2538 01:36:22,240 --> 01:36:24,240 pink shading. One was to avoid utilities 2539 01:36:24,240 --> 01:36:25,240 out there. The transmission line more 2540 01:36:25,240 --> 01:36:27,640 toward the western side 2541 01:36:28,240 --> 01:36:29,240 of the study area. And then, we also 2542 01:36:29,240 --> 01:36:31,240 aligned the route with the right of 2543 01:36:31,240 --> 01:36:34,240 way that was being used for the 2544 01:36:34,240 --> 01:36:36,240 per year 2545 01:36:37,240 --> 01:36:39,240 road extension 2546 01:36:40,240 --> 01:36:42,240 on the 2547 01:36:43,240 --> 01:36:46,240 east end. With no anticipated 2548 01:36:46,240 --> 01:36:48,240 displacementss 2549 01:36:49,240 --> 01:36:51,240 a 2550 01:36:52,240 --> 01:36:55,240 of that time. We took 2551 01:36:55,240 --> 01:36:57,240 that corridor. Applied more engineering 2552 01:36:57,240 --> 01:36:58,240 to that. Created an access assessment 2553 01:36:58,240 --> 01:37:00,640 to look at how 2554 01:37:01,240 --> 01:37:02,240 would users access that facility. First, 2555 01:37:02,240 --> 01:37:04,240 we 2556 01:37:04,240 --> 01:37:05,240 started with the changes at each end of 2557 01:37:05,240 --> 01:37:07,240 the route 2558 01:37:08,240 --> 01:37:10,240 one on the 2559 01:37:11,240 --> 01:37:13,240 west you see there. Sh45 2560 01:37:13,240 --> 01:37:14,240 southwest ends at f.m. 1626. That would 2561 01:37:14,240 --> 01:37:16,240 be an interchange 2562 01:37:17,240 --> 01:37:20,240 and access to the new route. And 2563 01:37:20,240 --> 01:37:22,640 then on the east 2564 01:37:23,240 --> 01:37:24,240 side would align with where sh45 2565 01:37:24,240 --> 01:37:26,240 comes in at I-35. Between those, we 2566 01:37:26,240 --> 01:37:28,240 assessed 2567 01:37:29,240 --> 01:37:30,240 and saw that you could 2568 01:37:30,240 --> 01:37:32,240 have two additional inner changes 2569 01:37:32,240 --> 01:37:35,240 in the middle of the route 2570 01:37:35,240 --> 01:37:37,240 essentially dividing up 2571 01:37:41,240 --> 01:37:43,640 the corridor into one-third. 2572 01:37:44,240 --> 01:37:46,240 full access to 2573 01:37:46,240 --> 01:37:50,240 and from the route. We looked at where 2574 01:37:50,240 --> 01:37:52,240 frontage 2575 01:37:53,240 --> 01:37:54,240 roads could 2576 01:37:54,240 --> 01:37:57,840 be located. Basically, the main lanes 2577 01:37:58,240 --> 01:37:59,240 would connect to existing sh45 on 2578 01:37:59,240 --> 01:38:01,240 the west. And 2579 01:38:02,240 --> 01:38:04,240 sh45 2580 01:38:05,240 --> 01:38:07,240 southeast on 2581 01:38:08,240 --> 01:38:11,240 the east side. At each 2582 01:38:11,240 --> 01:38:13,240 one 2583 01:38:13,240 --> 01:38:14,240 of those intermediate interchanges. Proposed 2584 01:38:14,240 --> 01:38:16,240 development, would be 2585 01:38:16,240 --> 01:38:17,240 needed for the eastern third from 2586 01:38:17,240 --> 01:38:19,240 the interchange just 2587 01:38:20,240 --> 01:38:22,240 east of 2588 01:38:22,240 --> 01:38:23,240 the railroad there. Over to I-35. And 2589 01:38:23,240 --> 01:38:24,240 again, 2590 01:38:24,240 --> 01:38:26,240 that note, these are preliminary subject 2591 01:38:26,240 --> 01:38:28,240 to 2592 01:38:29,240 --> 01:38:30,240 change 2593 01:38:30,240 --> 01:38:32,240 based on future development. As well. Once 2594 01:38:32,240 --> 01:38:34,240 we have 2595 01:38:35,240 --> 01:38:37,640 had that access assessment, 2596 01:38:38,240 --> 01:38:40,240 we 2597 01:38:41,240 --> 01:38:43,240 conducted a traffic study. In 2598 01:38:43,240 --> 01:38:46,840 an origin destination study. We share 2599 01:38:47,240 --> 01:38:49,240 the 2600 01:38:50,240 --> 01:38:52,640 traffic study, they reviewed 2601 01:38:53,240 --> 01:38:55,240 that. The destination 2602 01:38:56,240 --> 01:38:58,240 study what you 2603 01:38:58,240 --> 01:38:59,240 see here, we took data from origin 2604 01:38:59,240 --> 01:39:01,240 and destination 2605 01:39:02,240 --> 01:39:04,240 of trips along 2606 01:39:05,240 --> 01:39:08,240 the sh45 existing corridor. We 2607 01:39:08,240 --> 01:39:09,240 looked at both directions. Where trips 2608 01:39:09,240 --> 01:39:11,240 would begin and end. The origin of 2609 01:39:11,240 --> 01:39:13,640 each trip is shown 2610 01:39:14,240 --> 01:39:16,640 there in blue. And, 2611 01:39:17,240 --> 01:39:18,240 the 2612 01:39:18,240 --> 01:39:20,240 destination is shown in orange. It 2613 01:39:20,240 --> 01:39:22,240 represents a 2614 01:39:22,240 --> 01:39:23,240 higher number of trips. Looked at 2615 01:39:23,240 --> 01:39:26,240 a.m. And p.m. Peaks 2616 01:39:26,240 --> 01:39:28,240 as well as both directions 2617 01:39:28,240 --> 01:39:29,240 along sh45. And, what you may expect, 2618 01:39:29,240 --> 01:39:31,640 the main take away 2619 01:39:32,240 --> 01:39:35,240 there is that there is 2620 01:39:35,240 --> 01:39:37,240 heavy movement in 2621 01:39:37,240 --> 01:39:38,240 the a.m. Period from northern hayes 2622 01:39:38,240 --> 01:39:40,240 county 2623 01:39:41,240 --> 01:39:43,240 and the southern 2624 01:39:44,240 --> 01:39:47,240 mopak area. From south austin 2625 01:39:47,240 --> 01:39:50,240 back into northern hays county. Second 2626 01:39:50,240 --> 01:39:52,240 part of the 2627 01:39:53,240 --> 01:39:56,240 traffic study was conducted. Looked 2628 01:39:56,240 --> 01:39:59,240 at the travel demand model. And evaluated 2629 01:39:59,240 --> 01:40:01,240 that with the 2630 01:40:02,240 --> 01:40:04,240 access 2631 01:40:05,240 --> 01:40:07,240 points 2632 01:40:08,240 --> 01:40:10,640 that you saw before. 2633 01:40:11,240 --> 01:40:13,240 the traffic would 2634 01:40:13,240 --> 01:40:14,240 increase regardless. Improvements 2635 01:40:14,240 --> 01:40:16,240 we 2636 01:40:16,240 --> 01:40:17,240 saw along the road network that would 2637 01:40:17,240 --> 01:40:19,240 result 2638 01:40:20,240 --> 01:40:22,240 in 2639 01:40:23,240 --> 01:40:25,240 building the gap network. In the study 2640 01:40:25,240 --> 01:40:26,240 network. We see reduction in traffic 2641 01:40:26,240 --> 01:40:28,240 volumes 2642 01:40:29,240 --> 01:40:32,240 and increase in speeds on 2643 01:40:32,240 --> 01:40:34,240 most 2644 01:40:35,240 --> 01:40:37,640 of the arterial streets. 2645 01:40:38,240 --> 01:40:40,240 would 2646 01:40:41,240 --> 01:40:44,240 be increased by up to five miles per 2647 01:40:44,240 --> 01:40:46,240 hour by f.m. 967 and robert s 2648 01:40:46,240 --> 01:40:47,240 light boulevard and we see a reduction 2649 01:40:47,240 --> 01:40:49,240 of traffic 2650 01:40:50,240 --> 01:40:53,240 volumes depending on the time 2651 01:40:53,240 --> 01:40:56,240 of day. About a 20 to 2652 01:40:56,240 --> 01:40:59,240 30% in volumes on robert. Then, 2653 01:40:59,240 --> 01:41:01,240 if you go to f.m. 1626, we 2654 01:41:01,240 --> 01:41:02,240 would see reduction volumes there. Depending 2655 01:41:02,240 --> 01:41:04,240 on time 2656 01:41:04,240 --> 01:41:05,240 of day. 10 and 15% reduction and you 2657 01:41:05,240 --> 01:41:06,240 can see speed 2658 01:41:06,240 --> 01:41:08,240 increases up to 10 miles per hour 2659 01:41:08,240 --> 01:41:10,640 on average during those 2660 01:41:11,240 --> 01:41:13,640 peaks. And then, finally 2661 01:41:14,240 --> 01:41:15,240 on I-35, we saw an increase from the 2662 01:41:15,240 --> 01:41:17,240 model results of travel speeds up to 2663 01:41:17,240 --> 01:41:19,240 about four miles per 2664 01:41:19,240 --> 01:41:20,240 hour. Once you got 45 where you saw 2665 01:41:20,240 --> 01:41:22,240 that traffic 2666 01:41:23,240 --> 01:41:26,240 coming off. 35 and going over 2667 01:41:26,240 --> 01:41:28,240 to what 2668 01:41:29,240 --> 01:41:30,240 would be sh45. So those are the improvements 2669 01:41:30,240 --> 01:41:31,240 we 2670 01:41:31,240 --> 01:41:32,240 saw. A couple of the impacts. Sh45 2671 01:41:32,240 --> 01:41:34,240 the existing route 2672 01:41:34,240 --> 01:41:38,240 to the west would stay at or near 2673 01:41:38,240 --> 01:41:40,240 capacity 2674 01:41:41,240 --> 01:41:43,240 for most 2675 01:41:44,240 --> 01:41:47,240 of the day. And start to 2676 01:41:47,240 --> 01:41:49,240 exceed 2677 01:41:49,240 --> 01:41:50,240 capacity in the p.m. Peak. We see that 2678 01:41:50,240 --> 01:41:52,240 begin to 2679 01:41:53,240 --> 01:41:55,240 use 2680 01:41:59,240 --> 01:42:01,240 all of its compass capacity. Once 2681 01:42:01,240 --> 01:42:02,240 you got north of slaughter we saw 2682 01:42:02,240 --> 01:42:04,240 the effects of the gap 2683 01:42:04,240 --> 01:42:08,240 project go away and not have much notable 2684 01:42:08,240 --> 01:42:09,240 effect of the travel 2685 01:42:09,240 --> 01:42:11,240 speeds. And then, mopac as expected 2686 01:42:11,240 --> 01:42:13,640 already would remain at 2687 01:42:14,240 --> 01:42:16,240 or 2688 01:42:17,240 --> 01:42:19,240 near its design capacity. And 2689 01:42:19,240 --> 01:42:20,240 the other effect we saw, it would 2690 01:42:20,240 --> 01:42:22,240 still have 2691 01:42:23,240 --> 01:42:25,240 some sections 2692 01:42:26,240 --> 01:42:28,240 that are over 2693 01:42:29,240 --> 01:42:31,240 capacity even with 2694 01:42:31,240 --> 01:42:34,240 the project. Between 45 southwest. With 2695 01:42:35,240 --> 01:42:36,240 all that information, we presented 2696 01:42:36,240 --> 01:42:38,240 that at the 2697 01:42:38,240 --> 01:42:39,240 open house about a year ago. Like 2698 01:42:39,240 --> 01:42:41,240 the 2699 01:42:41,240 --> 01:42:44,240 first two we had both the 2700 01:42:44,240 --> 01:42:47,240 in-person meeting and a virtual online, 2701 01:42:47,240 --> 01:42:49,640 we had 70 attendees at 2702 01:42:50,240 --> 01:42:51,240 that in-person open house. 95 comments. And 2703 01:42:51,240 --> 01:42:53,240 655 2704 01:42:53,240 --> 01:42:55,240 unique 2705 01:42:56,240 --> 01:42:59,240 views on the website. And 2706 01:42:59,240 --> 01:43:01,240 then, 2707 01:43:02,240 --> 01:43:04,240 responded to 2708 01:43:05,240 --> 01:43:06,240 all the comments. The overall findings 2709 01:43:06,240 --> 01:43:08,240 we 2710 01:43:08,240 --> 01:43:09,240 had from the study, a few of those 2711 01:43:09,240 --> 01:43:11,240 included 2712 01:43:11,240 --> 01:43:13,240 the 2713 01:43:14,240 --> 01:43:16,240 project assuming 2714 01:43:17,240 --> 01:43:20,240 that full 400-foot wide right of way foot 2715 01:43:20,240 --> 01:43:22,240 present would require 190 2716 01:43:23,240 --> 01:43:25,240 acres. It would be generally 2717 01:43:25,240 --> 01:43:26,240 supported by the affected property owners. Based 2718 01:43:26,240 --> 01:43:28,240 on our discussions 2719 01:43:29,240 --> 01:43:30,240 with them. And the project would not 2720 01:43:30,240 --> 01:43:32,240 displace 2721 01:43:32,240 --> 01:43:36,440 any existing homes or bids or impact 2722 01:43:38,240 --> 01:43:40,640 parks, recreation areas. And 2723 01:43:41,240 --> 01:43:43,240 incorporate environmental 2724 01:43:44,240 --> 01:43:45,240 best practices and controls. Now I 2725 01:43:45,240 --> 01:43:47,240 will, 2726 01:43:47,240 --> 01:43:50,240 bear with me, I will go back 2727 01:43:50,240 --> 01:43:52,240 to 2728 01:43:53,240 --> 01:43:56,240 one of the maps. I will 2729 01:43:56,240 --> 01:43:58,240 read through 2730 01:43:59,240 --> 01:44:01,240 the bullet 2731 01:44:02,240 --> 01:44:03,240 point. We created a preliminary scheme 2732 01:44:03,240 --> 01:44:06,240 attic design. We are not display tag quite yet. But 2733 01:44:06,240 --> 01:44:08,240 I will show 2734 01:44:09,240 --> 01:44:11,240 you 2735 01:44:13,240 --> 01:44:15,240 on the map here. So you get a visual. But 2736 01:44:15,240 --> 01:44:17,240 a few 2737 01:44:18,240 --> 01:44:20,240 of the things 2738 01:44:20,240 --> 01:44:21,240 included, the connection to the main 2739 01:44:21,240 --> 01:44:23,240 lanes. Great 2740 01:44:24,240 --> 01:44:26,240 separations at that 2741 01:44:27,240 --> 01:44:29,240 intersection 2742 01:44:30,240 --> 01:44:32,240 as well 2743 01:44:33,240 --> 01:44:35,240 as 2744 01:44:36,240 --> 01:44:37,240 across over f.m. 1626. The two 2745 01:44:37,240 --> 01:44:39,240 intermediate interchanges with the 2746 01:44:39,240 --> 01:44:41,240 buda city 2747 01:44:41,240 --> 01:44:44,840 of transportation plan. We had future 2748 01:44:45,240 --> 01:44:47,240 arterial locations again in 2749 01:44:47,240 --> 01:44:48,240 line with master plan. One of those 2750 01:44:48,240 --> 01:44:50,240 arterials would 2751 01:44:51,240 --> 01:44:53,240 remain west 2752 01:44:54,240 --> 01:44:55,240 of the union 2753 01:44:55,240 --> 01:44:57,240 pacific railroad. And one of those would connect 2754 01:44:57,240 --> 01:44:59,240 to 2755 01:45:00,240 --> 01:45:02,240 the 2756 01:45:02,240 --> 01:45:05,240 east of the railroad. Between cullen 2757 01:45:05,240 --> 01:45:06,240 boulevard and hailey's way. The other 2758 01:45:06,240 --> 01:45:08,240 future 2759 01:45:09,240 --> 01:45:11,240 arterial 2760 01:45:12,240 --> 01:45:14,240 that was 2761 01:45:15,240 --> 01:45:17,240 east of the 2762 01:45:18,240 --> 01:45:20,240 railroad the 2763 01:45:21,240 --> 01:45:23,240 connection was for 2764 01:45:23,240 --> 01:45:24,240 that western arterial near cabella's drive. The 2765 01:45:24,240 --> 01:45:26,240 frontage roads 2766 01:45:27,240 --> 01:45:29,640 as I mentioned would 2767 01:45:30,240 --> 01:45:32,240 extend from that 2768 01:45:33,240 --> 01:45:35,240 eastern interchange 2769 01:45:36,240 --> 01:45:38,640 to I-35 to address 2770 01:45:39,240 --> 01:45:41,240 access 2771 01:45:42,240 --> 01:45:44,240 needs for 2772 01:45:44,240 --> 01:45:45,240 the existing development. Then we 2773 01:45:45,240 --> 01:45:47,240 would have the 2774 01:45:48,240 --> 01:45:50,240 sh45 southeast 2775 01:45:51,240 --> 01:45:53,240 connect to the 2776 01:45:54,240 --> 01:45:57,240 main lanes. Finally, we would 2777 01:45:57,240 --> 01:45:59,640 have flyover ramps from 2778 01:46:00,240 --> 01:46:02,240 I-35. We 2779 01:46:03,240 --> 01:46:05,240 developed 2780 01:46:06,240 --> 01:46:08,240 consensual designs allowing 2781 01:46:09,240 --> 01:46:11,240 them in all 2782 01:46:11,240 --> 01:46:12,240 directions between that footprint. With 2783 01:46:12,240 --> 01:46:14,640 that, I will let 2784 01:46:15,240 --> 01:46:17,240 erin 2785 01:46:21,240 --> 01:46:22,240 go through next steps. 2786 01:46:22,240 --> 01:46:24,240 >> so 2787 01:46:24,240 --> 01:46:26,640 currently, what paul mentioned, 2788 01:46:27,240 --> 01:46:29,240 the study 2789 01:46:30,240 --> 01:46:32,240 is complete. The 2790 01:46:33,240 --> 01:46:35,640 reports are complete and 2791 01:46:36,240 --> 01:46:39,240 schematic is final review ready 2792 01:46:42,240 --> 01:46:44,240 to be published. The process 2793 01:46:44,240 --> 01:46:46,240 doesn't stop. We continue to provide 2794 01:46:46,240 --> 01:46:48,240 them information on our lay-outs and 2795 01:46:48,240 --> 01:46:50,240 trying 2796 01:46:51,240 --> 01:46:52,240 to work with them 2797 01:46:52,240 --> 01:46:57,400 on their developments. We are looking to identify 2798 01:46:57,240 --> 01:46:59,240 the 2799 01:47:00,240 --> 01:47:02,240 right of 2800 01:47:02,240 --> 01:47:03,240 way needed. And create documents moving forward but 2801 01:47:03,240 --> 01:47:05,240 that's 2802 01:47:05,240 --> 01:47:06,240 where the scope of our work on this contract ends 2803 01:47:06,240 --> 01:47:08,240 so we 2804 01:47:08,240 --> 01:47:09,240 will be looking for hays county and 2805 01:47:09,240 --> 01:47:11,240 the city overby 2806 01:47:12,240 --> 01:47:15,240 da for any next steps 2807 01:47:15,240 --> 01:47:17,240 on how to 2808 01:47:18,240 --> 01:47:20,640 move forward. But our 2809 01:47:21,240 --> 01:47:23,240 project 2810 01:47:23,240 --> 01:47:24,240 concludes here with the feasibility I 2811 01:47:24,240 --> 01:47:27,240 will open it up for 2812 01:47:27,240 --> 01:47:28,240 questions. 2813 01:47:28,240 --> 01:47:29,240 >> 2814 01:47:29,240 --> 01:47:30,240 you want to go first? 2815 01:47:30,240 --> 01:47:31,240 >> sure. Thank 2816 01:47:31,240 --> 01:47:33,240 you 2817 01:47:33,240 --> 01:47:35,240 very 2818 01:47:36,240 --> 01:47:37,240 much for 2819 01:47:37,240 --> 01:47:39,240 the study. Help me understand if you 2820 01:47:39,240 --> 01:47:41,240 would go 2821 01:47:41,240 --> 01:47:42,240 back to that preliminary access map 2822 01:47:42,240 --> 01:47:44,240 that 2823 01:47:45,240 --> 01:47:48,240 was just up. Okay. So, we are 2824 01:47:48,240 --> 01:47:51,240 at 1327 and 35. And, it looks 2825 01:47:51,240 --> 01:47:53,240 like the roadway is being 2826 01:47:53,240 --> 01:47:56,840 proposed to extend out past 1327. So 2827 01:47:57,240 --> 01:47:59,640 I'm thinking about all 2828 01:48:00,240 --> 01:48:03,240 of the new apartments and homes being built off of 2829 01:48:03,240 --> 01:48:06,240 old san antonio road. There will 2830 01:48:06,240 --> 01:48:08,240 be 2831 01:48:09,240 --> 01:48:11,240 additional 2832 01:48:12,240 --> 01:48:15,240 stuff put back there. That whole makeup 2833 01:48:15,240 --> 01:48:18,240 of the way it looks now in five 2834 01:48:18,240 --> 01:48:20,240 years will 2835 01:48:24,240 --> 01:48:25,240 not be there. 2836 01:48:25,240 --> 01:48:27,240 >> yeah. 2837 01:48:27,240 --> 01:48:29,240 subject to 2838 01:48:30,240 --> 01:48:33,240 change but as the preliminary design, there 2839 01:48:33,240 --> 01:48:35,240 would be no direct 2840 01:48:35,240 --> 01:48:36,240 access to that. So, does it necessarily 2841 01:48:36,240 --> 01:48:38,640 take its consideration. Some 2842 01:48:39,240 --> 01:48:42,240 of the development. But I guess it 2843 01:48:42,240 --> 01:48:44,640 doesn't preclude it or 2844 01:48:48,240 --> 01:48:50,240 doesn't 2845 01:48:50,240 --> 01:48:51,240 do anything negative toward difficult. 2846 01:48:51,240 --> 01:48:52,240 >> 2847 01:48:52,240 --> 01:48:54,240 is 2848 01:48:54,240 --> 01:48:56,640 plan is to go 2849 01:48:57,240 --> 01:48:58,240 up correct? 2850 01:48:58,240 --> 01:49:00,240 >> we had a couple of 2851 01:49:00,240 --> 01:49:01,240 concepts going up above or below without 2852 01:49:01,240 --> 01:49:03,240 showing it to 2853 01:49:03,240 --> 01:49:06,240 you. Probably not going to make 2854 01:49:06,240 --> 01:49:07,240 a lot of sense. It would not cross 2855 01:49:07,240 --> 01:49:09,240 directly 2856 01:49:09,240 --> 01:49:12,240 with old san antonio. The sh45 2857 01:49:12,240 --> 01:49:14,240 lanes would 2858 01:49:18,240 --> 01:49:20,640 be either above or 2859 01:49:24,240 --> 01:49:25,240 below. 2860 01:49:25,240 --> 01:49:26,240 >> 2861 01:49:26,240 --> 01:49:27,240 okay. That would affect the slide 2862 01:49:27,240 --> 01:49:29,240 that you had 2863 01:49:30,240 --> 01:49:32,240 that talked 2864 01:49:33,240 --> 01:49:35,240 about having access roads. You 2865 01:49:35,240 --> 01:49:36,240 are going to stick to the concept 2866 01:49:36,240 --> 01:49:38,240 of it 2867 01:49:39,240 --> 01:49:40,240 being maybe elevated roadway that 2868 01:49:40,240 --> 01:49:42,240 goes above that 2869 01:49:42,240 --> 01:49:44,240 area, 2870 01:49:45,240 --> 01:49:48,240 I could probably get there. If 2871 01:49:48,240 --> 01:49:50,240 you 2872 01:49:51,240 --> 01:49:54,240 are talking in access roads. There's 2873 01:49:54,240 --> 01:49:55,240 a lot in that space. It is super dense 2874 01:49:55,240 --> 01:49:57,240 back 2875 01:49:57,240 --> 01:50:00,240 there right now and it is 2876 01:50:00,240 --> 01:50:02,240 just continuing 2877 01:50:02,240 --> 01:50:03,240 to be built. These feasibility studies 2878 01:50:03,240 --> 01:50:05,240 are 2879 01:50:06,240 --> 01:50:07,240 done 2880 01:50:07,240 --> 01:50:09,240 with current conditions. Hopefully, 2881 01:50:09,240 --> 01:50:10,240 there has been some thought in what 2882 01:50:10,240 --> 01:50:12,240 the 2883 01:50:12,240 --> 01:50:13,240 city of austin is doing. Because, 2884 01:50:13,240 --> 01:50:15,240 they 2885 01:50:15,240 --> 01:50:16,240 are building on every piece of property that 2886 01:50:16,240 --> 01:50:18,240 is back there 2887 01:50:18,240 --> 01:50:19,240 this they can get their hands on. And 2888 01:50:19,240 --> 01:50:21,240 then 2889 01:50:22,240 --> 01:50:25,240 of course, the city of 2890 01:50:25,240 --> 01:50:28,240 buda, we have our school 2891 01:50:28,240 --> 01:50:30,240 down there with buda 2892 01:50:30,240 --> 01:50:33,240 elementary. And you will have potentially heb or some 2893 01:50:33,240 --> 01:50:36,240 other business built off that road. So I 2894 01:50:36,240 --> 01:50:37,240 think when we start thinking about 2895 01:50:37,240 --> 01:50:39,240 going up, 2896 01:50:40,240 --> 01:50:41,240 up 2897 01:50:41,240 --> 01:50:43,240 would be a better choice. Then trying 2898 01:50:43,240 --> 01:50:45,240 to put everybody 2899 01:50:46,240 --> 01:50:49,240 in that same compacted space. 2900 01:50:49,240 --> 01:50:51,240 what we will create 2901 01:50:51,240 --> 01:50:52,240 is another 162-6967. 2902 01:50:52,240 --> 01:50:54,240 >> I'll also 2903 01:50:55,240 --> 01:50:57,240 just 2904 01:50:57,240 --> 01:50:58,240 mention on, we talked about what the 2905 01:50:58,240 --> 01:51:00,240 city 2906 01:51:01,240 --> 01:51:03,640 is doing. The per 2907 01:51:04,240 --> 01:51:06,240 year 2908 01:51:07,240 --> 01:51:10,240 road right of way. This 2909 01:51:13,240 --> 01:51:14,240 fits within that width 2910 01:51:14,240 --> 01:51:16,240 .

Some of that traffic. It 3137 01:59:09,240 --> 01:59:12,240 reduces the capacity on those existing 3138 01:59:12,240 --> 01:59:13,240 roads and increases the speeds on 3139 01:59:13,240 --> 01:59:14,240 those existing roads. 3140 01:59:14,240 --> 01:59:15,240 >> the first 3141 01:59:15,240 --> 01:59:16,240 part 3142 01:59:16,240 --> 01:59:17,240 is there a need. I think the second 3143 01:59:17,240 --> 01:59:19,240 part 3144 01:59:20,240 --> 01:59:21,240 is 3145 01:59:21,240 --> 01:59:24,840 could this project help that?

Is 3170 02:00:20,240 --> 02:00:22,640 that what that is 3171 02:00:23,240 --> 02:00:25,240 saying? By 3172 02:00:29,240 --> 02:00:31,640 having the new gap? 3173 02:00:35,240 --> 02:00:37,240 >> 3174 02:00:38,240 --> 02:00:41,240 the new bridges where the 3175 02:00:41,240 --> 02:00:44,240 new mopac lanes go. The lanes that 3176 02:00:44,240 --> 02:00:47,240 are two lanes each direction. 3177 02:00:50,240 --> 02:00:52,240 giving up, mostly to 3178 02:00:52,240 --> 02:00:53,240 slaughter. That is where they are 3179 02:00:53,240 --> 02:00:55,240 destined for 3180 02:00:56,240 --> 02:00:59,240 some of those areas. You see 3181 02:00:59,240 --> 02:01:01,240 folks traveling on 3182 02:01:02,240 --> 02:01:04,240 there. Taking exits 3183 02:01:05,240 --> 02:01:06,240 to slaughter and to win 3184 02:01:06,240 --> 02:01:08,240 cannon. People are getting to, folks 3185 02:01:08,240 --> 02:01:10,240 that 3186 02:01:10,240 --> 02:01:11,240 have beened added to the network are 3187 02:01:11,240 --> 02:01:13,240 starting to exit and 3188 02:01:13,240 --> 02:01:14,240 get where they are going to go. 3189 02:01:14,240 --> 02:01:15,240 >> 3190 02:01:15,240 --> 02:01:16,240 I guess, 3191 02:01:16,240 --> 02:01:17,240 by tying in the 35, I imagine there 3192 02:01:17,240 --> 02:01:20,240 is some amount of traffic 3193 02:01:20,240 --> 02:01:22,240 that is 3194 02:01:23,240 --> 02:01:25,240 not currently coming through from 3195 02:01:25,240 --> 02:01:29,240 sun field or other places. I believe we 3196 02:01:29,240 --> 02:01:31,240 would get some 3197 02:01:31,240 --> 02:01:32,240 18 wheelers which would make mopac 3198 02:01:32,240 --> 02:01:34,240 more fun but I imagine that 3199 02:01:34,240 --> 02:01:38,240 would back up. If it is already backing 3200 02:01:38,240 --> 02:01:40,240 up where 3201 02:01:41,240 --> 02:01:44,240 the valor school is. The 3202 02:01:44,240 --> 02:01:45,240 45 turning into the mopac section. By 3203 02:01:45,240 --> 02:01:47,240 adding more 3204 02:01:47,240 --> 02:01:48,240 capacity off of 35 and everything, 3205 02:01:48,240 --> 02:01:50,240 I imagine that section there would 3206 02:01:50,240 --> 02:01:53,240 back up as well. I guess 3207 02:01:53,240 --> 02:01:55,240 I 3208 02:01:55,240 --> 02:01:56,240 didn't see that specifically here. Maybe 3209 02:01:56,240 --> 02:01:58,240 I'm missing 3210 02:01:58,240 --> 02:01:59,240 it. 3211 02:01:59,240 --> 02:02:00,240 >> getting a little more to the 3212 02:02:00,240 --> 02:02:02,240 nuance 3213 02:02:02,240 --> 02:02:04,240 on the travel demand model, that 3214 02:02:04,240 --> 02:02:05,240 is what is the basis for these results.

We 3321 02:06:03,240 --> 02:06:05,240 have 3322 02:06:05,240 --> 02:06:06,240 been working on persimmon. Facilitating 3323 02:06:06,240 --> 02:06:07,240 that. So we are 3324 02:06:07,240 --> 02:06:09,240 aware of their latest plan and have 3325 02:06:09,240 --> 02:06:11,640 shared the latest line 3326 02:06:12,240 --> 02:06:14,240 with them so 3327 02:06:14,240 --> 02:06:15,240 they can preserve the correct footprint 3328 02:06:15,240 --> 02:06:17,240 assuming 3329 02:06:17,240 --> 02:06:18,240 the project were to move forward. 3330 02:06:18,240 --> 02:06:19,240 >> 3331 02:06:19,240 --> 02:06:21,240 is that just footprint 3332 02:06:21,240 --> 02:06:23,240 or am 3333 02:06:23,240 --> 02:06:24,240 I correct that east west road they 3334 02:06:24,240 --> 02:06:26,240 are putting 3335 02:06:27,240 --> 02:06:28,240 in their project. 3336 02:06:28,240 --> 02:06:29,240 >> 3337 02:06:29,240 --> 02:06:32,840 it would be compatible now. Still 3338 02:06:33,240 --> 02:06:34,240 based on the 3339 02:06:34,240 --> 02:06:36,240 final details. It would generally 3340 02:06:36,240 --> 02:06:39,240 be compatible with a future 3341 02:06:39,240 --> 02:06:41,240 45 3342 02:06:42,240 --> 02:06:43,240 gap. 3343 02:06:43,240 --> 02:06:44,240 >> that is 3344 02:06:44,240 --> 02:06:45,240 helpful. Did the traffic study, I 3345 02:06:45,240 --> 02:06:46,240 appreciate councilmember davidson's 3346 02:06:46,240 --> 02:06:48,240 questions and notes 3347 02:06:48,240 --> 02:06:49,240 on the traffic study. Did you 3348 02:06:49,240 --> 02:06:51,240 kind of isolate the north south traffic 3349 02:06:51,240 --> 02:06:53,240 and it 3350 02:06:54,240 --> 02:06:56,240 is 3351 02:06:57,240 --> 02:06:59,240 primarily 3352 02:06:59,240 --> 02:07:00,240 looking alternative east west? 3353 02:07:00,240 --> 02:07:01,240 >> 3354 02:07:01,240 --> 02:07:02,240 it 3355 02:07:02,240 --> 02:07:03,240 is very much a network based. It is 3356 02:07:03,240 --> 02:07:05,240 a 3357 02:07:06,240 --> 02:07:09,240 demand model. It is not 3358 02:07:09,240 --> 02:07:10,240 really looking at 3359 02:07:10,240 --> 02:07:12,240 say, individual vehicles. Like a micro 3360 02:07:12,240 --> 02:07:14,640 simulation more. It is 3361 02:07:15,240 --> 02:07:17,240 more of a 3362 02:07:18,240 --> 02:07:20,240 macro simulation. It is 3363 02:07:20,240 --> 02:07:24,240 a macro level assessment of what the network 3364 02:07:24,240 --> 02:07:26,240 looks like. What 3365 02:07:27,240 --> 02:07:29,240 could 3366 02:07:30,240 --> 02:07:32,240 be 3367 02:07:32,240 --> 02:07:33,240 added to it. Kind of running where 3368 02:07:33,240 --> 02:07:35,240 vehicles shift 3369 02:07:35,240 --> 02:07:36,240 around to based on purely looking at 3370 02:07:36,240 --> 02:07:37,240 what the demand would be. 3371 02:07:37,240 --> 02:07:39,240 >> one 3372 02:07:39,240 --> 02:07:40,240 thing just to add to that, we look 3373 02:07:40,240 --> 02:07:42,240 at 3374 02:07:42,240 --> 02:07:43,240 a study area for that. Not necessarily 3375 02:07:43,240 --> 02:07:45,240 isolating 3376 02:07:45,240 --> 02:07:46,240 east west or north south. Connections. Or, 3377 02:07:46,240 --> 02:07:47,240 movement. It 3378 02:07:47,240 --> 02:07:48,240 is really the study area. And the 3379 02:07:48,240 --> 02:07:50,240 movement 3380 02:07:51,240 --> 02:07:53,240 that happens 3381 02:07:54,240 --> 02:07:55,240 within that study. Area. 3382 02:07:55,240 --> 02:07:56,240 >> 3383 02:07:56,240 --> 02:07:57,240 helpful notes throughout. Yeah. Okay. That helps 3384 02:07:57,240 --> 02:07:58,240 me to understand 3385 02:07:58,240 --> 02:08:00,240 and interpret it. Is new apartments 3386 02:08:00,240 --> 02:08:02,240 on the 3387 02:08:02,240 --> 02:08:03,240 west side of the project. Talk to 3388 02:08:03,240 --> 02:08:05,240 me about that interchange 3389 02:08:05,240 --> 02:08:08,240 on the west side with those apartments 3390 02:08:08,240 --> 02:08:09,240 where they are being built. 3391 02:08:09,240 --> 02:08:10,240 >> what 3392 02:08:10,240 --> 02:08:12,240 you see there, 3393 02:08:12,240 --> 02:08:13,240 mentioned there would be the 45 main 3394 02:08:13,240 --> 02:08:15,240 lanes, the 3395 02:08:15,240 --> 02:08:16,240 controlled access would go over the top 3396 02:08:16,240 --> 02:08:18,240 of six and 3397 02:08:18,240 --> 02:08:20,240 26 3398 02:08:21,240 --> 02:08:23,240 and connect into 3399 02:08:23,240 --> 02:08:24,240 the existing 45 facility. And then, 3400 02:08:24,240 --> 02:08:26,240 we would 3401 02:08:27,240 --> 02:08:29,240 have some ramps 3402 02:08:29,240 --> 02:08:30,240 that would also go. The name of that 3403 02:08:30,240 --> 02:08:32,240 area is big 3404 02:08:33,240 --> 02:08:36,240 valley. It is for a reason. It 3405 02:08:36,240 --> 02:08:39,240 sits pretty low. So, even with 3406 02:08:39,240 --> 02:08:41,240 ramps would 3407 02:08:42,240 --> 02:08:44,240 kind 3408 02:08:45,240 --> 02:08:46,240 of fly over that quote unquote valley 3409 02:08:46,240 --> 02:08:48,240 and be 3410 02:08:48,240 --> 02:08:49,240 at a level above that terrain. As 3411 02:08:49,240 --> 02:08:51,240 far as 3412 02:08:51,240 --> 02:08:54,240 the apartments, that is an 3413 02:08:54,240 --> 02:08:56,640 active thing going on 3414 02:08:57,240 --> 02:08:58,240 now. Again, yeah. 3415 02:08:58,240 --> 02:09:00,240 >> I can 3416 02:09:00,240 --> 02:09:03,240 touch on that. So, the need for preserving 3417 02:09:03,240 --> 02:09:06,240 the right of way, this is one 3418 02:09:06,240 --> 02:09:09,240 example of that. And so, 3419 02:09:09,240 --> 02:09:11,240 in this case, 3420 02:09:12,240 --> 02:09:13,240 that 3421 02:09:13,240 --> 02:09:15,240 development did not exist. We could 3422 02:09:15,240 --> 02:09:17,240 not stop them from continuing their 3423 02:09:17,240 --> 02:09:18,240 development. We have had multiple 3424 02:09:18,240 --> 02:09:19,240 coordination meetings with them. Ensuring 3425 02:09:19,240 --> 02:09:21,240 that we 3426 02:09:21,240 --> 02:09:24,240 are able to maintain access 3427 02:09:24,240 --> 02:09:28,240 for them. In the final footprint of 3428 02:09:28,240 --> 02:09:30,240 the project. While you won't see 3429 02:09:30,240 --> 02:09:31,240 that on the schematic because we don't identify 3430 02:09:31,240 --> 02:09:33,240 connections 3431 02:09:33,240 --> 02:09:34,240 for thing that's don't exist at the 3432 02:09:34,240 --> 02:09:36,240 time. We have 3433 02:09:37,240 --> 02:09:39,240 worked through the 3434 02:09:39,240 --> 02:09:40,240 design effort to ensure that they 3435 02:09:40,240 --> 02:09:42,240 can access their 3436 02:09:43,240 --> 02:09:45,240 property from 3437 02:09:46,240 --> 02:09:48,240 this 3438 02:09:48,240 --> 02:09:49,240 roadway in the future. There is a portion 3439 02:09:49,240 --> 02:09:50,240 of their 3440 02:09:50,240 --> 02:09:52,240 property that has been displaced. Because 3441 02:09:52,240 --> 02:09:54,640 we are not ready 3442 02:09:55,240 --> 02:09:57,240 to purchase at the time of their 3443 02:09:57,240 --> 02:09:58,240 development. We were not able to avoid 3444 02:09:58,240 --> 02:09:59,240 that. And so, 3445 02:09:59,240 --> 02:10:01,240 the purpose of the preservation of 3446 02:10:01,240 --> 02:10:03,240 right of 3447 02:10:04,240 --> 02:10:06,240 way as you all know. But, so 3448 02:10:06,240 --> 02:10:07,240 at the end of the schematic phase, 3449 02:10:07,240 --> 02:10:10,240 there were no displacements. That 3450 02:10:10,240 --> 02:10:12,240 is in fact a displacement that 3451 02:10:12,240 --> 02:10:13,240 will occur in the future if right, it 3452 02:10:13,240 --> 02:10:15,640 will occur in the 3453 02:10:16,240 --> 02:10:19,240 future if and when the 3454 02:10:19,240 --> 02:10:21,240 project moves 3455 02:10:22,240 --> 02:10:23,240 forward. 3456 02:10:23,240 --> 02:10:24,240 >> 3457 02:10:24,240 --> 02:10:25,240 helpful throughout I guess. How bad? How 3458 02:10:25,240 --> 02:10:26,240 much is 3459 02:10:26,240 --> 02:10:28,240 the displacement or unclear? Unclear is 3460 02:10:28,240 --> 02:10:30,240 okay if 3461 02:10:31,240 --> 02:10:32,240 you don't have an answer. 3462 02:10:32,240 --> 02:10:33,240 >> it is, I don't 3463 02:10:33,240 --> 02:10:34,240 have a clear number. It is a portion 3464 02:10:34,240 --> 02:10:36,240 of 3465 02:10:37,240 --> 02:10:39,240 a building and 3466 02:10:40,240 --> 02:10:41,240 some of the parking lot. We have 3467 02:10:41,240 --> 02:10:43,240 identified where their water quality 3468 02:10:43,240 --> 02:10:44,240 is. It would 3469 02:10:44,240 --> 02:10:47,840 not put them into non-compliance when 3470 02:10:49,240 --> 02:10:52,240 and if that would happen. So it 3471 02:10:52,240 --> 02:10:55,240 is a portion of the property and a 3472 02:10:55,240 --> 02:10:57,640 structure and some of 3473 02:10:58,240 --> 02:10:59,240 the parking 3474 02:10:59,240 --> 02:11:01,240 lot. But I don't have a number or 3475 02:11:01,240 --> 02:11:02,240 a value for that. 3476 02:11:02,240 --> 02:11:04,240 >> 3477 02:11:04,240 --> 02:11:05,240 even 3478 02:11:05,240 --> 02:11:07,240 that is helpful. Thank you. Yeah. Well 3479 02:11:07,240 --> 02:11:10,240 let's talk about the project not 3480 02:11:10,240 --> 02:11:13,240 if but when. No more use of the 3481 02:11:13,240 --> 02:11:15,640 word if. When on 3482 02:11:16,240 --> 02:11:19,240 this project. Even if it is 3483 02:11:19,240 --> 02:11:22,240 2045 or when ever. Ultimately, what 3484 02:11:22,240 --> 02:11:24,240 it shows for the traffic 3485 02:11:24,240 --> 02:11:25,240 counts and from the traffic study 3486 02:11:25,240 --> 02:11:27,240 is 3487 02:11:28,240 --> 02:11:30,240 what is so 3488 02:11:31,240 --> 02:11:32,240 key. That 3489 02:11:32,240 --> 02:11:34,240 massive reduction on 1626 through 3490 02:11:34,240 --> 02:11:36,240 downtown, reducing it to 3491 02:11:36,240 --> 02:11:40,240 those that want to go downtown. Key 3492 02:11:40,240 --> 02:11:42,240 aspects of this project. Thank 3493 02:11:42,240 --> 02:11:43,240 you for your work. I guess, just one 3494 02:11:43,240 --> 02:11:45,240 last high level 3495 02:11:46,240 --> 02:11:49,240 question. If there is one thing that 3496 02:11:49,240 --> 02:11:51,240 would change that 3497 02:11:52,240 --> 02:11:55,240 would make travis county look 3498 02:11:55,240 --> 02:11:57,240 more 3499 02:11:57,240 --> 02:11:58,240 favorably on this project. Any takes 3500 02:11:58,240 --> 02:12:00,240 more 3501 02:12:00,240 --> 02:12:01,240 from a technical study standpoint? Are there 3502 02:12:01,240 --> 02:12:03,240 any particular 3503 02:12:03,240 --> 02:12:04,240 things that travis county brings directly 3504 02:12:04,240 --> 02:12:06,240 to the 3505 02:12:07,240 --> 02:12:08,240 table from a technical and study standpoint that 3506 02:12:08,240 --> 02:12:10,240 is 3507 02:12:10,240 --> 02:12:12,240 the 3508 02:12:13,240 --> 02:12:15,240 number one 3509 02:12:15,240 --> 02:12:16,240 thing to change? 3510 02:12:16,240 --> 02:12:17,240 >> the biggest thing 3511 02:12:17,240 --> 02:12:19,240 is having additional open communication 3512 02:12:19,240 --> 02:12:22,240 with them so we can 3513 02:12:25,240 --> 02:12:27,640 explain to them the 3514 02:12:31,240 --> 02:12:33,240 edwards 3515 02:12:34,240 --> 02:12:36,640 edwards aquifur zone. This 3516 02:12:37,240 --> 02:12:40,240 portion of the project is in the 3517 02:12:40,240 --> 02:12:42,240 transition zone. It is in the 3518 02:12:42,240 --> 02:12:43,240 least environmentally sensitive and 3519 02:12:43,240 --> 02:12:45,240 very 3520 02:12:46,240 --> 02:12:48,240 much less 3521 02:12:48,240 --> 02:12:49,240 environmentally sensitive than the 3522 02:12:49,240 --> 02:12:51,240 prior 3523 02:12:51,240 --> 02:12:52,240 state highway 45 project. Conversations 3524 02:12:52,240 --> 02:12:54,240 like that are important 3525 02:12:54,240 --> 02:12:55,240 to help them understand we are doing 3526 02:12:55,240 --> 02:12:57,240 everything to make 3527 02:12:58,240 --> 02:13:01,240 this a sensitive project to 3528 02:13:01,240 --> 02:13:03,240 the environment. And, 3529 02:13:04,240 --> 02:13:06,240 to any edwards aquifer 3530 02:13:06,240 --> 02:13:07,240 regulated areas or non-regulated areas.

And in other areas. We 3747 02:20:42,240 --> 02:20:44,240 will 3748 02:20:45,240 --> 02:20:46,240 have to 3749 02:20:46,240 --> 02:20:50,440 rework and relocate some poles within it. 3750 02:20:54,240 --> 02:20:57,240 similar space, the design hasn't changed 3751 02:20:57,240 --> 02:20:59,240 a whole bunch but it starts to identify 3752 02:20:59,240 --> 02:21:00,240 and solidify what is happening between 3753 02:21:00,240 --> 02:21:02,240 peach and 3754 02:21:03,240 --> 02:21:05,240 live oak there 3755 02:21:06,240 --> 02:21:09,240 with some of the relocations there 3756 02:21:09,240 --> 02:21:11,240 with the modify the design. Moving 3757 02:21:11,240 --> 02:21:12,240 to some shared dumpsters at a couple 3758 02:21:12,240 --> 02:21:14,240 of those places. Some of these 3759 02:21:14,240 --> 02:21:15,240 properties are working through the 3760 02:21:15,240 --> 02:21:17,640 redevelopment ha has been 3761 02:21:18,240 --> 02:21:20,240 a piece that is an ongoing discussion, 3762 02:21:20,240 --> 02:21:24,240 moving a property on the west side 3763 02:21:24,240 --> 02:21:26,240 to the alley 3764 02:21:26,240 --> 02:21:27,240 way and crossing live oak street. And 3765 02:21:27,240 --> 02:21:29,240 at the end 3766 02:21:29,240 --> 02:21:30,240 here on the last slide here, similar 3767 02:21:30,240 --> 02:21:32,240 is just really showing and 3768 02:21:32,240 --> 02:21:35,240 highlighting some of the areas that 3769 02:21:35,240 --> 02:21:36,240 are slightly different. If you guys 3770 02:21:36,240 --> 02:21:38,240 do 3771 02:21:39,240 --> 02:21:40,240 recall in the schematic phase, what 3772 02:21:40,240 --> 02:21:42,240 was 3773 02:21:42,240 --> 02:21:44,240 presented, other 3774 02:21:47,240 --> 02:21:48,240 areas that were combined dumpsters, 3775 02:21:48,240 --> 02:21:50,240 they have gone into slight 3776 02:21:50,240 --> 02:21:51,240 different lay outs or slight different 3777 02:21:51,240 --> 02:21:53,240 designs. So that is where we 3778 02:21:53,240 --> 02:21:54,240 are at in the process. And are able 3779 02:21:54,240 --> 02:21:56,240 to be 3780 02:21:57,240 --> 02:21:59,240 able to get 3781 02:21:59,240 --> 02:22:00,240 to at this point.

And the staff 3807 02:22:51,240 --> 02:22:53,240 is met 3808 02:22:54,240 --> 02:22:56,640 with pec multiple times 3809 02:22:57,240 --> 02:22:59,240 to discuss what 3810 02:23:00,240 --> 02:23:02,240 options are 3811 02:23:03,240 --> 02:23:05,240 possible 3812 02:23:06,240 --> 02:23:08,240 with following 3813 02:23:09,240 --> 02:23:11,240 our city 3814 02:23:11,240 --> 02:23:12,240 code. Our waste water treatment plant 3815 02:23:12,240 --> 02:23:13,240 needing that constant power and the 3816 02:23:13,240 --> 02:23:15,240 texas childrens we 3817 02:23:15,240 --> 02:23:17,240 are all aware of 3818 02:23:17,240 --> 02:23:18,240 needing that dedicated double stack 3819 02:23:18,240 --> 02:23:20,240 three-phase line. It 3820 02:23:21,240 --> 02:23:24,240 limits where we can go underground. We 3821 02:23:24,240 --> 02:23:27,240 have a most likely result that will 3822 02:23:27,240 --> 02:23:29,240 happen is 3823 02:23:30,240 --> 02:23:33,240 pec will install an upgrade, the overhead on 3824 02:23:33,240 --> 02:23:35,640 market street which will 3825 02:23:36,240 --> 02:23:38,640 allow them to install 3826 02:23:39,240 --> 02:23:40,240 underground electric between peach 3827 02:23:40,240 --> 02:23:42,640 and san antonio. Pec 3828 02:23:43,240 --> 02:23:44,240 would reconnect all the 3829 02:23:44,240 --> 02:23:46,240 services. We wouldn't leave anybody 3830 02:23:46,240 --> 02:23:48,240 hanging and 3831 02:23:49,240 --> 02:23:50,240 pec would remove 3832 02:23:50,240 --> 02:23:51,240 the old overhead electric between 3833 02:23:51,240 --> 02:23:53,240 peach and san antonio. To do this, 3834 02:23:53,240 --> 02:23:55,240 we need an agreement with pec. Most of 3835 02:23:55,240 --> 02:23:58,240 the funding would come from the 3836 02:23:58,240 --> 02:24:00,240 bond program or 3837 02:24:00,240 --> 02:24:01,240 this project. And we need additional 3838 02:24:01,240 --> 02:24:03,240 easements for the 3839 02:24:04,240 --> 02:24:07,240 new transformer pads that will 3840 02:24:07,240 --> 02:24:09,240 be servicing 3841 02:24:10,240 --> 02:24:12,240 the underground services. So, 3842 02:24:12,240 --> 02:24:13,240 where we are going, there is still 3843 02:24:13,240 --> 02:24:15,240 a 3844 02:24:16,240 --> 02:24:18,240 lot to do. We believe a 3845 02:24:18,240 --> 02:24:19,240 higher level of design will allow 3846 02:24:19,240 --> 02:24:20,240 us to see 3847 02:24:20,240 --> 02:24:22,240 these constraints more quickly. So that 3848 02:24:22,240 --> 02:24:24,240 is chi we 3849 02:24:25,240 --> 02:24:27,640 are asking we do 3850 02:24:28,240 --> 02:24:30,240 proceed with the next design phase. When 3851 02:24:30,240 --> 02:24:31,240 we get the 60% we will get a cost 3852 02:24:31,240 --> 02:24:32,240 estimate 3853 02:24:32,240 --> 02:24:34,240 of potential phasing of the project 3854 02:24:34,240 --> 02:24:36,240 and look at 3855 02:24:37,240 --> 02:24:39,640 additional funding sources for 3856 02:24:40,240 --> 02:24:43,240 it.
