1
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:44,919
What are you doing?
>> Hey

2
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,759
Hey, look. It works.

3
00:07:42,010 --> 00:07:45,120
[Music]

4
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:23,029
[Music]

5
00:08:40,719 --> 00:08:44,080
You sound like the other

6
00:08:47,410 --> 00:08:50,520
[Music]

7
00:09:24,560 --> 00:09:27,800
That's right.

8
00:10:38,079 --> 00:10:41,800
I didn't think about that.

9
00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:07,600
Good evening. It is 6:30 and we are
going to uh call this city council

10
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:14,000
meeting to order. Tuesday, September
23rd, 2025.

11
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:19,360
And with that, we will go into our
invocation. And uh I'm actually going to

12
00:11:17,680 --> 00:11:22,600
do the invocation tonight. So, if you'll
please stand.

13
00:11:26,959 --> 00:11:33,760
Lord, we come to you for guidance,
wisdom, and grace in the oath we take to

14
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:37,760
serve the citizens of this city. We ask
that you give us that understanding to

15
00:11:35,519 --> 00:11:41,839
listen better and speak with our hearts
that look to serve.

16
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:45,839
We come wanting understanding, Lord, as
we have all seen the tragedy that took

17
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:49,839
place and touched our nation. The loss
of Charlie Kirk should be the reminder

18
00:11:47,519 --> 00:11:54,880
that we should live Christlike. While
the battle cry may say live like Charlie

19
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:58,320
or I am Charlie, it is simply a way of
the reminder that we can all love like

20
00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:02,000
Jesus.
We can find forgiveness in those that

21
00:11:59,920 --> 00:12:07,760
trespass against us because that is what
our savior did for us when he laid down

22
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:14,160
his life. So if you will all join me.
Our father who art in heaven, hallowed

23
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:19,839
be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will
be done on earth as it is in heaven.

24
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:25,519
Give us this day our daily bread. And
forgive us our trespasses as we forgive

25
00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:31,120
those who trespass against us. and lead
us not into temptation, but deliver us

26
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:36,079
from evil. For thine is the kingdom, and
the power, and the glory forever and

27
00:12:32,959 --> 00:12:40,440
ever. Amen.
>> Mr. Good, will you lead us in our

28
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:40,440
pledges?

29
00:12:41,680 --> 00:12:51,720
To the flag of the United States of
America and to the

30
00:12:47,279 --> 00:12:51,720
stands nationy

31
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:56,160
and justice for all.

32
00:12:57,839 --> 00:13:00,839
flag.

33
00:13:01,839 --> 00:13:09,800
One state under God, one and
indivisible. God bless Texas.

34
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:24,959
» Pretty sure I threw everybody because I
don't normally do the prayer.

35
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:30,399
Um, so our rules of decorum, I always uh
just pull a name from this jar up here

36
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:34,560
and we honor somebody uh whether they
were law enforcement or military and we

37
00:13:32,800 --> 00:13:40,959
dedicate the meetings to them. And this
one is John McDonald. And so we will

38
00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:46,079
honor him tonight in our meeting. And
with that, we will uh treat each other

39
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:50,480
with kindness.
So that's going to bring us up to our

40
00:13:48,639 --> 00:13:56,639
proclamation.
Yay.

41
00:13:52,720 --> 00:14:01,040
» So, I'm gonna start this off real quick.
What does one say about a person who has

42
00:13:58,560 --> 00:14:04,720
shown courage to stand up and serve? Who
has shown compassion when working with

43
00:14:02,639 --> 00:14:08,560
people? Who has shown understanding when
listening to the people whom she comes

44
00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:12,240
into contact with? How do you say thank
you, honor, and make sure they know they

45
00:14:10,639 --> 00:14:16,480
are valued and appreciated for all they
do and have done? And I have no doubt

46
00:14:14,399 --> 00:14:22,160
will continue to do even after she steps
away from this seat. Maybe the best way

47
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:26,880
to do it is serve as Bev has, but just
make sure to hold a better poker face

48
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:30,560
when the topics are not so fun.
Here's the thing. I firmly feel and

49
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:35,519
believe that this city is better because
of Bev. It is said, it was said by Teddy

50
00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:39,120
Roosevelt, "Walk softly and carry a big
stick." And honestly, if you go with the

51
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:42,880
meaning behind it, it means to approach
situations with a gentle demeanor and be

52
00:14:41,519 --> 00:14:48,240
prepared to use strong measures when
necessary. A lesson we should all

53
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:52,560
remember not only in saying but doing.
Bev has taught me a lot and in many

54
00:14:49,839 --> 00:14:56,320
cases how to have a better tamed tongue
and sit back and take deep breaths and

55
00:14:54,639 --> 00:15:00,000
focus on moving forward and doing good
things. It isn't about getting in the

56
00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:04,639
mud and rolling around and getting
dirty. It's about the windshield. It is

57
00:15:02,399 --> 00:15:09,600
much larger than the rearview mirror.
Unfortunately, it took me a bit of time

58
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:16,320
to concede this
as I am a stubborn Taurus and I do not

59
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:19,519
like to sit quiet sometimes. Bev will be
missed and I will continue to lean on

60
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:23,600
her for her mentorship even though she
will be absent from the office of city

61
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:26,959
manager going forward.
Bev, you are truly a good person. You

62
00:15:25,279 --> 00:15:30,240
took things on the chin even in our
disagreements on many matters. You

63
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:34,560
always remain professional, kind, and
more so my friend. I love you. You are a

64
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:38,070
rock and you will always be the first
city manager of Mlennon Chisum and we

65
00:15:36,160 --> 00:15:41,249
thank you for your service.
[Applause]

66
00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:55,830
[Applause]

67
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:07,519
sit downclamation.
If I could sit down, I would. But then

68
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:10,720
got to do this proclamation cuz she
loves all this kind of stuff.

69
00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:15,199
It's
>> the third time today we've won this.

70
00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:22,079
» It is the third time today we've done
this. Uh Be was recognized this morning

71
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:27,839
at the county commissioners uh court um
where they relished in embarrassing her.

72
00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:32,880
Uh today at lunch we uh were able to do
that again with the state rep uh state

73
00:16:30,959 --> 00:16:38,320
rep's office, state senator's office,
and uh Congressman Found's office as

74
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:43,279
well. And uh we get to be the ones to do
this. So I apologize if y'all notice

75
00:16:40,959 --> 00:16:48,320
this proclamation and then staff will
present her her road sign and a couple

76
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:54,880
other little things and then we'll get
into business. I apologize. So

77
00:16:50,880 --> 00:17:00,480
proclamation whereas Bev Stevens a 1973
graduate of Pana noise married her

78
00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:05,199
husband Neil who she met on a blind date
in 1976

79
00:17:02,480 --> 00:17:11,360
and married in 1977 and moved with him
to Mlendon Chisum in 1980.

80
00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:15,760
Whereas before acting as our intern city
administrator, Bev has been part of our

81
00:17:13,919 --> 00:17:19,679
part of several nonprofit organizations
such as American Heart Association,

82
00:17:17,360 --> 00:17:24,319
Dallas Area Habitat for Humanity, and
Volunteer Center of North America.

83
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:30,960
Whereas Bev has many talents, including
being a trained florist with a true

84
00:17:27,039 --> 00:17:35,919
green thumb, she also enjoys travel,
traveling with the world with her

85
00:17:32,559 --> 00:17:40,320
husband and loves cruising.
Whereas between cruises, Bev has had a

86
00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:44,559
firm belief in serving and being a part
of her community. Over the years, she is

87
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:49,280
involved in all parts of her community,
including helping hands, Rockwell open

88

space alliance, women in need, and the
chocolate indulgence committee.

89

Whereas in 2003, she was citizen of the
year of Mlennon Chisum and Rockwell I

90
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:02,000

recent being that of the first to hold
the title of city manager under our new

[Applause]

104
00:19:07,039 --> 00:19:16,160
Yeah,
>> because I made a huge mistake at lunch

105
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:20,960
for there. I left one very important
person out and that is our city

106
00:19:18,559 --> 00:19:26,720
attorney.
He has stood by me through a lot of

107
00:19:23,120 --> 00:19:34,320
different roles here and
tried to keep me legal. I won't always

108
00:19:30,799 --> 00:19:40,160
say he did, but a huge thank you to him.
A huge thank you to this council, the

109
00:19:37,039 --> 00:19:46,559
past council, the staff.
You guys are great. Citizens couldn't

110
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:54,200
have better neighbors. So, Fabric, I
wish you well.

111
00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:54,200
You got a big problem on your hands.

112
00:20:01,039 --> 00:20:04,039
Okay.

113
00:20:10,830 --> 00:20:17,869
[Applause]

114
00:20:21,120 --> 00:20:24,280
That's perfect.

115
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:50,640
Thank y'all for uh allowing us that time
to honor Bev. So, I appreciate that.

116
00:20:47,679 --> 00:20:56,400
I'd hope to embarrass her city business
to do. So, let's get to it.

117
00:20:54,400 --> 00:21:01,039
This will bring up citizens comments. Do
we have any citizens comments turned in?

118
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:06,080
Does anyone want to speak before I close
citizens comments?

119
00:21:03,360 --> 00:21:09,919
Okay, we will close citizens comments.
And that's going to bring us to consent

120
00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:16,320
agenda. I will entertain a motion to
accept a consent agenda unless anyone

121
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:22,320
sees something they would like to pull.
>> I'd like to discuss 6.2.

122
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:27,120
» Okay. Is there any other items that need
to be pulled? If not, I'll entertain a

123
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:30,240
motion to um approve the rest through
consent.

124
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,799
» So moved.
>> Is there a second?

125
00:21:31,919 --> 00:21:35,280
» Second.
>> All in favor say I. Please.

126
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:37,679
» I
>> I

127
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:42,480
» I
>> I.

128
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:46,000
» Okay. So we will pull 6.2.
Um, discuss and consider approval of a

129
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:53,039
final plat that provides for the
development of 406 residential lots and

130
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:58,640
seven open space lots on 105.099
acres of land located generally at the

131
00:21:55,840 --> 00:22:03,720
intersection of FM 548 Nan Road. The
Rockwell CAD property identification

132
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,720
number is 10985.

133
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:10,400
And I'll entertain a motion on this one
to discuss and approve.

134
00:22:09,360 --> 00:22:14,240
» So move.
>> Is there a second? Second. Okay, it's

135
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:18,840
open for discussion. I'm going to turn
this over to uh city manager,

136
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:25,600
city planner.
>> Good evening, council. Um the applicant

137
00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:31,440
is requesting approval of a final plat
that provides for 406 residential lots

138
00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:35,679
and seven open space lots. Um, in
summary, uh, this project is tied with

139
00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:42,400
several previous preliminary plat
approvals and, uh, as a city in the ETJ,

140
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:46,320
we only have platting authority, um, for
this case. So, the that being said, the

141
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:51,760
applicant is here if you do have
development questions, um, questions

142
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:56,159
about his development as a whole, but as
far as the city is concerned, I only

143
00:22:53,760 --> 00:23:00,960
have, um, subdivision ordinance
authority, platting authority.

144
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:05,679
» Mr. Paula, um, can you clarify something
with me on the final plat? And the

145
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:11,280
reason it's on consent agenda is because
when it's a final plat,

146
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:14,240
unless there is some crazy legal reason,
if the eyes are dotted, te's across,

147
00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:16,960
stables are in the right place, we've
got to approve this or the shot clock

148
00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:19,679
approves it anyway. Is that correct?
>> You would be correct, Mayor. Under

149
00:23:18,159 --> 00:23:25,120
212009
of the LGC. If it's uh administratively

150
00:23:22,799 --> 00:23:29,600
complete, which literally means is it
stapled in the right spot? Is the fee

151
00:23:27,360 --> 00:23:33,679
paid? all that kind of thing, right?
Copies and is it in technical compliance

152
00:23:31,919 --> 00:23:37,919
with our subdivision ordinance? If both
of those answers are yes to each of

153
00:23:36,159 --> 00:23:42,159
those questions, the council doesn't
have a choice and we have to approve uh

154
00:23:40,159 --> 00:23:47,280
the plats. They're they're the most
unique land used animal that we have.

155
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:51,200
» Which is why if we do know that it's
already in compliance and it's complete

156
00:23:49,120 --> 00:23:55,039
and everything's good to go, putting it
on consent just allows us to move things

157
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:59,679
through a little bit faster.
>> Absolutely. I I appreciate council

158
00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:05,280
member Goodman pulling this because many
people don't understand u on the citizen

159
00:24:03,120 --> 00:24:08,000
side. They just see something that we're
just trying to slide through and that's

160
00:24:06,559 --> 00:24:10,880
not the case. If there was something
that needed to be discussed, it wouldn't

161
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:14,720
be on their consent. It would have been
in the regular agenda. That's the city

162
00:24:12,799 --> 00:24:19,360
manager's place to put that there for
us. So, uh

163
00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:22,880
» no, that's correct. As per usual, when
cities have difficulty with land use,

164
00:24:21,120 --> 00:24:26,559
it's the state legislator's fault and
that's the case here. So,

165
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:29,120
» okay. So, does that reach you what you
needed or do you need you have anything?

166
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,200
» No, I got a few things I want to
clarify.

167
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:36,400
» No doubt.
>> Just just so kind of the public is

168
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:41,279
aware. We didn't This is so far outside
of what our community wants here in

169
00:24:38,559 --> 00:24:46,320
Mlennon Chisum. This is an ETJ. It's on
the border. It actually is half Kaufman,

170
00:24:43,120 --> 00:24:49,520
half Rockall County. Correct. Or
>> no, I believe it's almost entirely

171
00:24:48,159 --> 00:24:53,840
Kaufman County.
>> Okay.

172
00:24:50,799 --> 00:24:58,000
Um this was no plan development or
anything that we did here. This was

173
00:24:56,240 --> 00:25:01,200
» there is no executed development
agreement or plan development district

174
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:06,000
agreement.
>> Okay.

175
00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:09,520
Chief Stow.
>> Yes. Does this affect fire district 22

176
00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:14,640
at all?
>> No sir. This is uh part of the MAM

177
00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:18,880
project and they have a emergency
services contract with uh ESD in coffin

178
00:25:17,679 --> 00:25:23,200
county.
>> Okay. So no impact to the fire district.

179
00:25:21,919 --> 00:25:26,200
There's really not much we can do but
approve.

180
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:33,279
» As far as the plat is concerned, that is
correct.

181
00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:38,000
» Thank you.
Does anyone have any further questions

182
00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:44,960
on this one?
Okay. So all those in favor say I. I. I.

183
00:25:41,679 --> 00:25:48,440
I. I. I. All right. I I
>> believe that's unanimous.

184
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:06,200
Okay. So, this brings us up to uh item
8.1.

185
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:16,159
Discuss and consider approval for the
donation of a 1995 Pierce Fire Engine to

186
00:26:13,120 --> 00:26:20,640
the North Texas Fire Academy for
training. I'll entertain a motion.

187
00:26:19,279 --> 00:26:23,520
» So moved.
>> Second.

188
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:28,320
» Second.
>> Open for discussion. Um, city manager.

189
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:35,039
Good evening, mayor, council members. Uh
this item before you this evening is

190
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:41,520
regarding uh donating a 1995 Pierce Fire
Engine to the North Texas Fire Academy

191
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:48,400
for uh purposes of training in exchange
for $10,000 equivalent in uh training uh

192
00:26:46,159 --> 00:26:53,760
credit. And as I understand it, that
would be in addition to the already

193
00:26:50,480 --> 00:27:00,480
granted uh $10,000 worth of training
credits. Yes. Uh, with that said, staff

194
00:26:58,159 --> 00:27:06,080
does recommend approval of this item. We
have in the audience with us, Mr.

195
00:27:03,679 --> 00:27:11,720
Michael Simmons that is here available
for any questions if you should you have

196
00:27:08,159 --> 00:27:11,720
it at this time.

197
00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:17,600
» Yeah, I got you.
>> Mr. London, do you have any questions on

198
00:27:17,279 --> 00:27:20,400
this?
>> No questions.

199
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:24,080
» Mr. Towry,
>> Mr. Brew,

200
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:27,120
» if I understand this right, this truck
has been there for quite some time.

201
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:30,960
» Yes, sir.
>> And the only thing that actually

202
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:36,799
operates on it is the pump part.
Everything else is pretty shot.

203
00:27:33,360 --> 00:27:40,559
» So, you're correct. So, in 2018, it had
been stored there for storage offsite.

204
00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:43,600
The department still had used it on and
off for different types of training and

205
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:47,279
all that. It was no longer a primary
apparatus. One of the main reasons it

206
00:27:45,679 --> 00:27:52,240
was stored is because it failed a pump
test. So in order to get the pump back

207
00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:56,720
to original working condition, we would
have to invest a little bit. But for

208
00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:59,840
what we do and function properly,
putting it back on the street and using

209
00:27:58,159 --> 00:28:05,120
as a first out or second out or third
out.

210
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:07,840
» No sir, you are correct.
>> Mr. Dean,

211
00:28:06,399 --> 00:28:11,520
» I'm good. Thank you.
>> Mr. Goodwin,

212
00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:15,360
» I'm good.
>> Mr. Powers, good. And I have no

213
00:28:14,159 --> 00:28:19,919
questions. So, uh,
>> and excuse me, just to make notes, we

214
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:23,640
are getting the C logo removed from the
truck, correct?

215
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,640
» Absolutely.

216
00:28:24,399 --> 00:28:31,520
» Anything else from staff, chief?
All right. I'll since we've had the

217
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:33,440
motion in a second, all those approved
say I.

218
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:37,039
» I.
>> I. I.

219
00:28:36,399 --> 00:28:41,679
I.
>> I believe that's unanimous as well.

220
00:28:39,039 --> 00:28:45,039
» Mr. Simmons, our finance director, has
the title. He is signing it over to you

221
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:47,440
right now.
>> He's got the title. Sign it over to you

222
00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:52,240
right now.
>> Oh, good deal. Thank you, mayor, council

223
00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:56,640
members. Appreciate it. Thank you very
much.

224
00:28:52,880 --> 00:29:02,159
» Thank you, Chief.
>> That brings up item 8.2,

225
00:29:00,559 --> 00:29:06,080
discuss and determine whether the
proposed site plan conforms to the

226
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:12,399
Crossroad Plan
Development District.

227
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:17,360
Before I call Mr. very up on this. Let
me ask you a question. Being that this

228
00:29:14,559 --> 00:29:20,399
is where this debate,
does that mean we can take action? I

229
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:25,960
mean, I don't So, discuss and determine
whether the proposed site plan, it

230
00:29:21,919 --> 00:29:25,960
doesn't say discuss and approve.

231
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:32,960
» So, are we good?
>> I mean, I'm still going to have him come

232
00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:37,600
up and speak. I just
>> So, so I can take Do I need But I guess

233
00:29:35,279 --> 00:29:43,679
what I should ask it this way. I need to
still take a motion in a second, right?

234
00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:50,240
» I don't think so because the way that
this the way it looked like it was taken

235
00:29:45,919 --> 00:29:53,600
from is from 5-1, I think it's D of our
uh zoning ordinance, the plan

236
00:29:51,520 --> 00:29:58,000
development district, what that talks
about when they talk about uh

237
00:29:55,520 --> 00:30:02,559
conformance to the plan development and
all that other information. That's when

238
00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:06,080
when establishing a plan development
district. this was established.

239
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:09,840
» Well, I'm talking about on this the way
it's worded. It's so discuss and

240
00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:13,039
determine whether the proposed site plan
conforms to the crossroads. It should I

241
00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:16,480
mean
>> I don't think so because I don't think

242
00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:18,320
there's a motion that the council can
take.

243
00:30:16,799 --> 00:30:23,080
» So then I can let him still speak.
Correct. Say yes. Okay.

244
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:23,080
» Mr. Barry.

245
00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:35,200
Good evening, mayor, uh, council,
members of the staff.

246
00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:39,520
U,
I think you may go into executive

247
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:45,760
session. I'm not sure it's shows to be
here. I'm sorry that um, we're kind of

248
00:30:43,279 --> 00:30:52,159
going out of order here. I'm not 100%
sure why uh we are having to come here

249
00:30:49,360 --> 00:31:00,640
with the exception of the fact that we
have a site plan um that was submitted

250
00:30:55,919 --> 00:31:07,919
for approval on uh a 7 acre track that
we have on the east side of uh State

251
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:12,559
Highway 205 at the intersection of 205
and 550.

252
00:31:09,919 --> 00:31:18,720
Um there's a couple of things that I
think point out um that kind of tie and

253
00:31:15,520 --> 00:31:24,320
coincide together here tonight that I
think that um ultimately we need to look

254
00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:29,440
at ultimately in your packet what you
have in front of you and the request of

255
00:31:27,360 --> 00:31:34,320
sames suggests that the council is to
interpret whether or not our plan

256
00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:38,320
development is in conformance.
Um there's certainly developers that

257
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:42,960
have done this a lot longer than I have,
but this is a first for me. And so, um,

258
00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:48,559
it seems as though we're going a little
bit out of order, but, um, your city

259
00:31:46,159 --> 00:31:55,840
planner has suggested that the site plan
application that we had by 7-Eleven, um,

260
00:31:52,240 --> 00:32:00,320
as the enduser through a developer by
the name of Verd,

261
00:31:57,919 --> 00:32:06,559
um, who is a buyer from one of our
holdings, uh, submitted a site plan

262
00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:13,200
approval that was ultimately rejected by
the city planner. Uh, when

263
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:17,519
here tonight. Uh, and I do apologize
that you have 80 plus pages in your

264
00:32:15,279 --> 00:32:21,279
packet tonight. There's two things if
you were to go break out and I'm happy

265
00:32:19,279 --> 00:32:26,159
to talk at length in whatever capacity
you'd like to. There's two things that I

266
00:32:23,679 --> 00:32:31,039
think that we need to look at tonight.
One is ultimately the rejection which

267
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:37,600
suggests that we are not in conformance.
And I trust that you uh received in your

268
00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:43,919
packet and saw in exhibit I on page 209
and 210 a two-page letter that I

269
00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:48,080
concluded by providing five or six
reasons very specifically stating as to

270
00:32:46,399 --> 00:32:53,120
why I believe this is more in
conformance than than not.

271
00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:59,120
And the second thing that we have to
talk about tonight is an already

272
00:32:55,360 --> 00:33:04,159
approved plat that uh took place at the
December 10th

273
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:08,880
uh conclude who our ultimate enduser was
going to be and that the mayor and the

274
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:14,240
city manager had the authority to make
interior lot line changes.

275
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:21,840
And so as part of our site plan
approval, we sent the uh plat reflecting

276
00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:27,440
a
uh 2025 date in the signature blocks in

277
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:34,080
lie of the 2024.
and we adjusted the interior lot lines

278
00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:38,399
in two different places and uh would
just point out for the record that none

279
00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:49,919
of the exterior perimeters have changed.
So, um you received in your packet um

280
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:55,279
80 plus pages and um beginning on page
132

281
00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:59,519
through 134 in your packet, there was
ultimately five different sections of

282
00:33:57,519 --> 00:34:03,760
reasoning as to why that this was
rejected

283
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:08,639
uh by nonconformance.
And so if now is the time, I would be

284
00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:13,919
happy to go through those, but I want to
respect the process and um go through

285
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:20,960
that. I would ask when it comes to the
plat that you get the official word from

286
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:26,000
your city attorney from a vested rights
perspective. It's my firm belief that we

287
00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:31,359
established that back on December 10th
of 2024

288
00:34:28,159 --> 00:34:34,960
and uh feel with certainty that he will
agree with the same. But I would ask

289
00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:38,639
that you not ask me my opinion because
I'm clearly trying to move forward with

290
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:44,159
a development and a disposition of an
asset and would like for you to get that

291
00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:49,760
blessing from him. But I can't move
forward with the development of 711

292
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:54,320
without going through a site plan
approval of which I feel that we're in

293
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:59,440
full conformance with from what I now
understand that we have to add a layer

294
00:34:56,480 --> 00:35:05,920
of government to the process by getting
your blessing of conformity. So, I guess

295
00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:09,920
my first question, Mr. Mayor, is is
do we want to go through this in in

296
00:35:08,079 --> 00:35:13,359
great detail now? Would you like an
opportunity to meet with the council?

297
00:35:11,839 --> 00:35:20,240
How would you like for me to proceed
with my my questions? I would actually

298
00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:24,640
be okay with hearing your input. Um, and
I and I would think the council would

299
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:29,520
agree to hear it all now, if you're okay
with it. And and

300
00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:34,960
time. I'm okay with the time because one
thing that I want to make very clear is

301
00:35:32,720 --> 00:35:39,599
as a city, whether it's an elected or a
staff, we have to be better and we have

302
00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:43,520
to make sure that we're here to serve
you. Whether you're a developer or a

303
00:35:41,599 --> 00:35:49,280
citizen, you're coming to our city and
that's that's our role is to serve. So,

304
00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:54,160
I respect your time. If you're willing
to share your input, I'm taking notes

305
00:35:51,599 --> 00:35:57,640
because I think it's prudent to do so if
everyone's in agreement.

306
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:05,119
Okay, fair enough. And I appreciate
that. Um, unfortunately

307
00:36:02,720 --> 00:36:09,119
um I'm dealing with a city planner
that's stated no less than four times

308
00:36:07,119 --> 00:36:15,520
that they don't support our use nor our
user. And um

309
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:20,480
he's told me that uh he's told that to
my partners. He's told that to myself.

310
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:23,760
And I would respectfully tell you that
you're out of bounds and you don't have

311
00:36:21,920 --> 00:36:27,599
that authority. We're inside a plan
development district and we're in

312
00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:33,760
conformance. And with that, I would
proceed forward. The first thing that we

313
00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:38,640
want to talk about is uh conformity.
If I could get you to direct your

314
00:36:35,520 --> 00:36:45,920
attention to page 185 inside your
packet, um you will find my letter and

315
00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:50,520
on the I apologize. Uh,
page 132 of your packet.

316
00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:58,720
» I'm going to interrupt real quick. So,
the way that

317
00:36:56,480 --> 00:37:02,560
» the information that we have is not
structured the same way. So, whenever he

318
00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:05,040
calls out a page number like that,
>> okay,

319
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:09,440
» it's it's broken up differently for us.
>> Fair enough. Thank you, Chief. Um,

320
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:15,359
inside your packet, it I believe it's
listed as exhibit I and I I can't

321
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:21,599
confirm what page number it is.
Um, in my packet it's I'll get a couple

322
00:37:19,599 --> 00:37:25,920
of different versions. This one is 209.
Let's see if that works.

323
00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:28,480
» Is it the supporting documentation
letter?

324
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:33,520
» Is it your letter?
>> 209 and 210. And you see a letter that

325
00:37:30,720 --> 00:37:38,800
was presented. Okay, great. If I could
direct your attention to page 210 of

326
00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:42,560
that in the last paragraph, I stated
that we are grateful for the opportunity

327
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:46,720
to be heard by the city council where I
look forward to further discussing this

328
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:51,599
matter. Please note the following in
advance. One, the concept plan shows two

329
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:57,680
ingress and egress entrances on State
Highway 205. So does our site plan. The

330
00:37:55,520 --> 00:38:04,240
concept plan shows one ingress and
egress entrance on FM 550. and so does

331
00:38:01,280 --> 00:38:08,079
our site plan. The concept plan shows a
fire lane generally from each of the

332
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:12,720
respective entrances.
So does our site plan. Generally, the

333
00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:16,560
concept plan shows two buildings north
of the proposed entrance on state

334
00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:22,320
highway 205.
So does our site plan.

335
00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:27,920
Ordinance number 2022-11
PD permitted uses states, and I quote,

336
00:38:25,760 --> 00:38:32,480
"The uses allowed or prohibited in this
plan development district are as

337
00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:38,960
follows. Those uses allowed in the city
of Mlin and Chisum GB general business

338
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:45,200
district namely convenience store with
or without fuel sales is a permitted use

339
00:38:41,119 --> 00:38:51,079
that does not require an SUP.
We have a plan development district that

340
00:38:47,119 --> 00:38:51,079
was approved back in 2022

341
00:38:52,079 --> 00:39:00,880
and we are not asking for any variances
and our initial site plan approval

342
00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:06,960
request is for a use that's permitted by
right that doesn't even require an SUP.

343
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:12,400
Second thing that I want to point out
tonight that I would respectfully ask

344
00:39:09,839 --> 00:39:19,040
that you consult with your city attorney
on is an already approved

345
00:39:16,240 --> 00:39:25,040
final plaque that was blessed by
unanimously by the council on at the

346
00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:30,400
December 10th, 2024 meeting.
And I would ask that you ask your city

347
00:39:27,599 --> 00:39:35,599
attorney about our vested rights. And
specifically, I would ask that you ask

348
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:40,800
for clarity in the direction that I was
given by your city staff at that time to

349
00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:45,760
hold off on your signature, Mr. Mayor,
as well as the city manager or the city

350
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:49,760
administrator, I believe, at that time
because we were working with two

351
00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:55,359
different applicants at the time as who
was going to be purchasing purchasing

352
00:39:52,160 --> 00:40:00,480
the hard corner. and we were told that
it was proper

353
00:39:58,560 --> 00:40:06,320
for us to wait until that was
identified, which is what we've done.

354
00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:12,800
And so alongside our site plan
application here, we submitted

355
00:40:10,079 --> 00:40:18,720
the revised and current site plan that
showed those modifications and addressed

356
00:40:15,599 --> 00:40:26,320
the respective comments with Mr. Sherman
in person to where

357
00:40:21,839 --> 00:40:32,240
at the time we had a full understanding
and what I understood to be complete

358
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:36,920
support same. Those are the two matters
um on pages um

359
00:40:37,839 --> 00:40:48,960
132 through 135 in your 134 in your
packet. You have five items noted by

360
00:40:45,839 --> 00:40:53,920
staff, namely Mr. Sherman.
One being the comprehensive plan.

361
00:40:52,240 --> 00:40:58,319
And I would respectfully tell you that
this is not about a comprehensive plan.

362
00:40:56,800 --> 00:41:03,599
This is an already approved plan
development district. I have utmost

363
00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:09,520
respect for your comprehensive plan, but
it's not applicable to this application.

364
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:15,680
Two, A through F.
I can go through each of these if you

365
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:20,640
would like. 2 A, we have that included.
2B, we have a detention pond and a

366
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:26,960
letter from an engineer stating same
that it's been removed and relocated.

367
00:41:23,599 --> 00:41:30,880
2C, if you would see page 212 of your
packet, you'll see that that is actually

368
00:41:29,119 --> 00:41:37,280
included.
2D is an absolutely ridiculous statement

369
00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:41,200
that suggests that we're talking about
limiting the amount of headlight

370
00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:46,079
intrusion where I would remind you that
it wasn't two city council meetings ago

371
00:41:44,079 --> 00:41:50,480
where you had unanimous support of a
plan development district by that was

372
00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:55,920
approved unanimously by a good partner
of mine and a good friend at the Chisum

373
00:41:53,119 --> 00:42:01,359
Square that had 68 parking spaces
alongside State Highway 205, 34 of which

374
00:41:59,119 --> 00:42:08,400
are facing direct directly onto state
205. We have zero.

375
00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:14,000
That wasn't even mentioned through any
of that report.

376
00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:21,040
2E, we will meet the general business
requirements for landscaping.

377
00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:25,280
2F is not true. See page 140 of your
packet. There's another lot behind

378
00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:30,640
7-Eleven,
not just the one shown in the site plan

379
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:35,760
where it suggests that we only have an
entrance off of 550 going into the

380
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:45,359
northeastern corner of our project.
Section three suggest proposed site

381
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:50,480
plan. 3A, not true. See page 140. 3B, we
will adhere to the landscape

382
00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:58,960
requirements in general business. 3 C
we've provided an engineering letter to

383
00:42:52,560 --> 00:43:05,359
address same 3D not true see page 212
3E we've already addressed 3F we've

384
00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:10,800
already addressed we will meet the
general business requirements for

385
00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:15,680
landscaping 3G it's not true but
respectfully that's not of city

386
00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:18,720
authority it's a text dot requirement we
will work directly with text dot as we

387
00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:23,319
have
Section 4 4A

388
00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:31,280
respectfully you're not an engineer but
we have provided a letter addressing

389
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:37,200
same and it will be further addressed
whenever we're putting our civil package

390
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:46,079
together for approval. 4B we've already
addressed. 4 C is a text issue. 4 D

391
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:50,319
we've already addressed. 4 E is
absolutely not true. We have a fire lane

392
00:43:48,319 --> 00:43:59,359
going through the middle of our property
as indicated in the plans. 4F.

393
00:43:55,760 --> 00:44:05,440
Not true. It's not in a fire lane.
Five. I would ask that you just talk

394
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:08,440
with Mr. Hollow.
council,

395
00:44:09,599 --> 00:44:16,960
we have not been treated the way your
precedents been set on recently

396
00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:22,240
previously submitted and approved
development packages. I don't want to go

397
00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:27,119
there. We're simply trying to stay in
the confines of what we bought. It was

398
00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:32,960
an already approved,
already

399
00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:38,960
um entitled piece of property. We are
strictly in the confines of conformity.

400
00:44:36,079 --> 00:44:45,520
I've identified no less than a half a
dozen examples for same and certainly

401
00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:50,079
welcome further discussion. I would note
for the record that no less than four

402
00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:54,480
requests were made by my applicant to
this gentleman right here to get

403
00:44:51,839 --> 00:44:58,400
specific confirmations of what needed to
be addressed andor to confirm that

404
00:44:56,160 --> 00:45:04,079
everything was addressed inclusive of
two additional requests made by me. to

405
00:45:01,119 --> 00:45:09,680
receive zero remarks outside of a
rejection stating nonconformity after I

406
00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:12,880
commanded a reason for why. That's not
the way we do business here. And I don't

407
00:45:11,440 --> 00:45:17,680
think that you would agree with me. It's
the way y'all want to do business. I'm

408
00:45:15,200 --> 00:45:21,920
not trying to raise havoc. I'm strictly
trying to do what we committed to you

409
00:45:19,359 --> 00:45:25,240
back on December 10th when we brought in
front of you

410
00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:35,119
the final plat that we did where
alongside same I provided for you an

411
00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:40,400
amended a draft rather concept plan that
showed almost to the tea of exactly what

412
00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:44,160
we're doing. I'm here for any questions.
I will happily see and I'll happily come

413
00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:48,800
up and entertain anymore. I don't have
anything else to address at this time.

414
00:45:46,079 --> 00:45:53,119
One one second. So,
Mr. Hollage, help me clear something up

415
00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:59,119
here. Uh, Mr. Barry brought up the fact
that it was not signed in December, that

416
00:45:56,800 --> 00:46:02,800
would not have any weight whether it was
signed or not signed since it was a

417
00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:06,480
legislative action by the council.
Correct.

418
00:46:03,839 --> 00:46:10,720
» Correct. Once that uh uh once that
ordinance was passed, the PL or the plat

419
00:46:08,400 --> 00:46:15,920
was approved by the council, then it's
approved as of that date. It's a

420
00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:20,319
ministerial duty um by the mayor at the
time to sign ordinances or plats or

421
00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:24,880
whatever it is that the council has
passed um unless there's a reason under

422
00:46:23,119 --> 00:46:30,720
like for example resolution ordinances
under 5203b the mayor's got it a he can

423
00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:34,880
reconsider ask council to reconsider
that but that doesn't change the fact

424
00:46:32,720 --> 00:46:39,760
that once legislative body has made a
decision boom that decision is made and

425
00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:48,240
not signing it is not going to stop that
>> so not an expiration date of

426
00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:51,839
» whether it took 90 days or 365 days that
legislative action was passed. It is

427
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:55,359
approved and it is done.
>> Correct.

428
00:46:52,240 --> 00:46:59,280
» Uh my other concern back to you, Mr.
just so I can make sure I understand uh

429
00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:02,720
cuz we will go into executive session
because we have some other legal

430
00:47:00,240 --> 00:47:10,000
questions to ask on this. But I want to
be clear, you submitted six times asking

431
00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:14,400
for
to be told explicitly for what was

432
00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:18,319
» I would not want to misrepresent on the
record anything different than what I

433
00:47:16,160 --> 00:47:23,680
stated in my letter. Um what I'm
attempting to state for you is is after

434
00:47:20,240 --> 00:47:28,160
we made uh the application I personally
sat down with Mr. Sherman we sat down

435
00:47:26,160 --> 00:47:34,400
and went through a number of pages of
checklist provided receipts uh of

436
00:47:31,280 --> 00:47:39,839
payment for same asked if we were good.
Um I I certainly didn't ask him if it

437
00:47:37,200 --> 00:47:45,920
was uh uh approved at that time and and
never would have. Um um and following

438
00:47:43,359 --> 00:47:51,920
that meeting um the applicant who is
here um on the behalf of Verdad uh sent

439
00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:56,800
four different messages to not receive
any responses to of which I added two

440
00:47:54,560 --> 00:48:00,240
additionals with a request confirming
that we would be on the next PNZ meeting

441
00:47:58,720 --> 00:48:05,760
which I believe at the time was the
September 9th meeting

442
00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:11,599
um and received no correspondence
outside of a rejection stating that we

443
00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:14,720
were not in conformance. Sir,
>> gentlemen, before we go back into

444
00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:17,280
executive session, Mr. Lone, do you have
anything you want to get cleared before

445
00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:20,079
we go back there that you're confused
on?

446
00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:22,880
» Just making sure there's no variances
being requested. You're just going off

447
00:48:21,599 --> 00:48:26,800
of what's already been submitted.
>> To the very best of my knowledge, I'm

448
00:48:24,559 --> 00:48:32,760
not requesting any variance, Mr. London.
>> Thank you, sir.

449
00:48:27,760 --> 00:48:32,760
» Mr. Towry, Mr. Brewer,

450
00:48:34,319 --> 00:48:45,319
» Mr. Dean, Mr. Goodwin, Mr.
Okay. So, with that being said, kind of

451
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:45,319
flip back

452
00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:50,200
all the verbage.

453
00:48:51,359 --> 00:48:56,480
City council for the city of Mlennon,
Chisum, Texas, reserves the right to

454
00:48:54,720 --> 00:49:00,000
convene into executive session at any
time during the course of this meeting

455

anymore.

516
01:10:17,520 --> 01:10:20,239
So

517
01:10:25,760 --> 01:10:29,159
Anybody else

518
01:10:30,719 --> 01:10:33,719
want

519
01:10:58,239 --> 01:11:01,560
We were already

Hope that's a good idea.

526
01:13:08,320 --> 01:13:11,560
There you go.

527
01:13:22,960 --> 01:13:26,120
I'm thinking

528
01:13:47,920 --> 01:13:50,920
First

[Music]

530
01:14:11,520 --> 01:14:14,840
thing you know,

531
01:14:17,760 --> 01:14:20,920
What's that?

532
01:14:25,690 --> 01:14:28,920

533
01:15:21,520 --> 01:15:24,829

534
01:16:35,840 --> 01:16:39,400
Welcome to

535
01:17:07,040 --> 01:17:10,040
Good.

536
01:17:22,560 --> 01:17:25,280
» Sorry.

537
01:17:51,040 --> 01:17:54,520
You won't be exactly

538
01:18:15,199 --> 01:18:18,520
Are you saying

539
01:18:53,440 --> 01:18:56,520
You got

540
01:19:09,840 --> 01:19:13,239
I guess whatever.

541
01:20:06,080 --> 01:20:09,080
So

542
01:20:09,760 --> 01:20:12,920
the name

543
01:20:18,159 --> 01:20:21,159
Easy.

544
01:20:57,520 --> 01:21:00,400
So we got

545
01:21:09,760 --> 01:21:12,080
So we

546
01:21:34,080 --> 01:21:38,120
What I
So

547
01:21:40,880 --> 01:21:44,199
what do we need?

548
01:22:15,120 --> 01:22:18,120
What?

549
01:22:25,840 --> 01:22:31,480
» Yeah.
It's already

550
01:22:33,600 --> 01:22:36,600
done.

551
01:24:17,600 --> 01:24:19,600
All

552
01:24:35,120 --> 01:24:38,120
right.

553
01:24:54,560 --> 01:24:57,759
[Music]

554
01:25:16,000 --> 01:25:19,159
I know.

555
01:25:20,880 --> 01:25:24,920
» Always did. Always did.

556
01:25:35,920 --> 01:25:39,080
You got

557
01:25:51,679 --> 01:25:54,560
speech.

558
01:26:18,000 --> 01:26:26,159
Okay, it is 7:45 and we are back for
executive session.

559
01:26:22,719 --> 01:26:32,560
Um, no action was taken in executive
session. Um, however, we did have a few

560
01:26:29,920 --> 01:26:39,360
questions that we were able to get
answers to from our legal counsel. Um,

561
01:26:36,560 --> 01:26:44,320
and with that, I'm going to turn it over
to the city attorney because of the

562
01:26:42,960 --> 01:26:53,080
concerns that are out there on the
legalities and allow him to explain uh

563
01:26:47,920 --> 01:26:53,080
the process and moving forward.

564
01:26:54,159 --> 01:27:01,840
So, let me start off by saying the
council is really excited

565
01:26:58,960 --> 01:27:07,040
about the particular uh developer and
what they brought to the city. Um, they

566
01:27:04,719 --> 01:27:12,800
actually wanted to do a lot of things
tonight. So, it is my fault that they

567
01:27:10,000 --> 01:27:17,760
are hopefully not going to do anything
uh tonight. And and I'll explain the

568
01:27:15,040 --> 01:27:23,199
reason why about that. Uh because like I
said, council is they want to make sure

569
01:27:20,719 --> 01:27:28,880
that they're treating everybody fairly,
that everybody gets what the due process

570
01:27:26,239 --> 01:27:32,480
allows them to get under the ordinances
uh under a code of ordinances. They're

571
01:27:30,639 --> 01:27:36,159
very adamant about that. They're very
appreciative of you actually

572
01:27:34,000 --> 01:27:38,560
specifically uh Mr. Barry. The mayor
didn't want me to say that, but I

573
01:27:37,199 --> 01:27:44,560
thought I would, you know, let you know
they specifically appreciate it. um the

574
01:27:42,800 --> 01:27:48,800
where it looks like there was maybe a
mislication of our ordinances because if

575
01:27:47,120 --> 01:27:55,120
you look at five this language is taken
almost directly from 5-1 I think it's

576
01:27:51,440 --> 01:28:00,480
subsection uh D of our code of
ordinances zoning ordinance and in

577
01:27:57,199 --> 01:28:05,600
five-1 it starts off with in the
establishment of a plan development

578
01:28:02,800 --> 01:28:10,159
district and then it's got ABC and D
well that is that whole procedure is

579
01:28:08,480 --> 01:28:14,719
when you're actually in the process of
establish establishing a plan

580
01:28:11,760 --> 01:28:18,239
development. That's not what's going on
out here. One of the council members you

581
01:28:16,560 --> 01:28:21,280
So, you're basically saying that the
horse is out of the barn, it's gone,

582
01:28:19,760 --> 01:28:25,120
it's had ponies, and now it's in the
glue factory. I said, exactly. This was

583
01:28:23,760 --> 01:28:30,080
done. I thought it was pretty clever
myself. That was three years ago. It's

584
01:28:27,520 --> 01:28:37,280
over. It's done. So, there there there
is no authority for the council to take

585
01:28:32,880 --> 01:28:41,600
action at this point. So um what now
different things can happen at at this

586
01:28:39,120 --> 01:28:46,560
point you know where we are we can you
can leave it where it is um you know you

587
01:28:44,719 --> 01:28:51,440
can you can continue to try to work with
staff see what we can work out there's

588
01:28:48,960 --> 01:28:55,520
also an option if you want to amend uh
see to amend the PD to conform with

589
01:28:53,440 --> 01:28:58,719
whatever the the consent plan you had
and I understand there may be some

590
01:28:56,800 --> 01:29:03,440
disagreement between staff and developer
but here's the thing if the developer

591
01:29:00,960 --> 01:29:08,080
says look I'm willing to do I don't know
say A B and

592
01:29:04,960 --> 01:29:12,639
But the staff wants me to also do deenf.
I don't think I need to or I don't want

593
01:29:09,679 --> 01:29:17,360
to or both. That doesn't mean council's
going to make the the or even P&Z is

594
01:29:15,280 --> 01:29:22,880
going to recommend that the developer do
def. That is totally within the purview

595
01:29:20,639 --> 01:29:27,600
of the council. So it can go through P&Z
and they can come to council and council

596
01:29:24,960 --> 01:29:31,440
can say hey you know what uh developer I
agree with you. I think only AB and C

597
01:29:29,679 --> 01:29:36,400
are necessary. So we're going to approve
the amendment to the PD with just ABC

598
01:29:34,000 --> 01:29:39,600
and not DEF. So council that is
perfectly within their perview,

599
01:29:37,920 --> 01:29:44,080
perfectly within their authority to do
that. So those are just a couple of

600
01:29:41,360 --> 01:29:49,440
options. Uh you know that they are. But
as far as tonight, as much as council

601
01:29:46,880 --> 01:29:53,840
would gen genuinely like to do something
because what I've appreciated about this

602
01:29:51,520 --> 01:29:57,120
council is they're willing to not not
concede to developers, but they

603
01:29:55,360 --> 01:30:00,159
understand that that the best option is
to work with developers because that's

604
01:29:58,880 --> 01:30:05,199
going to benefit the community and
everybody as a whole. at this point, the

605
01:30:03,199 --> 01:30:09,760
way the ordinance is and and we kind of
apologize and and maybe I should have

606
01:30:07,280 --> 01:30:13,040
caught it too that the way it's worded
and taking from the section of our

607
01:30:11,440 --> 01:30:19,199
ordinance that it was in, it should have
really been on the agenda even for

608
01:30:14,960 --> 01:30:24,159
tonight. So, and I don't want them to to
ask questions. So, please blame me. It

609
01:30:21,920 --> 01:30:28,960
is not their fault. They are genuinely
excited about y'all, but I have asked

610
01:30:26,480 --> 01:30:33,520
them not to have their questions
answered because in the future, for an

611
01:30:31,280 --> 01:30:36,639
example, if there is an attempted minute
in the PD, I don't want them to have all

612
01:30:35,040 --> 01:30:40,159
their questions answered and they made a
decision tonight when it's not even in

613
01:30:38,159 --> 01:30:43,120
front of them. So, that's kind of just
generally where they are.

614
01:30:41,360 --> 01:30:48,880
» Yeah. Thank you, Mr. Holla. Um, and
thank you, council. Um just as it

615
01:30:46,080 --> 01:30:57,600
relates to next steps. Um next steps is
is um we were shut down on the process

616
01:30:55,040 --> 01:31:01,040
of
what I would call the traditional

617
01:30:58,960 --> 01:31:06,480
process the the the the city of Mlennon
Chisum's process of submitting a site

618
01:31:04,159 --> 01:31:12,080
plan application on an already approved
plan development district. We all know

619
01:31:09,040 --> 01:31:17,679
that this is not a zoning case.
uh we were here or required to be here

620
01:31:14,960 --> 01:31:22,960
tonight at the request of myself to get
here tonight to determine your

621
01:31:19,199 --> 01:31:28,480
conformity so that we can move forward
with the site plan approval process. And

622
01:31:26,400 --> 01:31:33,120
so the only action that I would
interpret, as much as I would love to

623
01:31:30,159 --> 01:31:37,679
ask for you to uh to to take this under
advisement for a site plan approval, I

624
01:31:36,000 --> 01:31:42,880
I'm not asking that. It's not on the
agenda tonight and I acknowledge that.

625
01:31:40,000 --> 01:31:48,480
Um what is on the agenda tonight is the
clarification that's being required or

626
01:31:45,440 --> 01:31:54,480
requested for the city administrator or
for the city planner to hear your

627
01:31:50,960 --> 01:31:59,600
direction to allow us to determine that
this is in fact in conformance so that

628
01:31:57,040 --> 01:32:02,400
we can move to the site plan approval
process.

629
01:32:00,239 --> 01:32:06,880
» That and that's what I was obviously
didn't do a good enough job conveying.

630
01:32:04,560 --> 01:32:10,480
They can't do that tonight.
>> Okay. What this comes from, that's what

631
01:32:08,639 --> 01:32:17,040
I was trying to explain. What this comes
from is section 5-1 of our ordinance.

632
01:32:14,480 --> 01:32:22,960
The asking for council to determine
conformance that can only happen during

633
01:32:20,400 --> 01:32:27,920
the establishment of a plan development
district. That is not what we have here.

634
01:32:25,920 --> 01:32:33,280
This plan development district has
already been established. So the section

635
01:32:30,639 --> 01:32:37,600
that would normally allow this is not
applicable. So at this point, we've

636
01:32:36,159 --> 01:32:41,440
already got an established plan
development district and so we have to

637
01:32:39,920 --> 01:32:43,679
go from there. That's what I was trying
to convey.

638
01:32:42,000 --> 01:32:47,679
» Fair enough. And I respect that. You
also appreciate the fact that my site

639
01:32:46,000 --> 01:32:52,880
plan submitt was rejected due to
nonconformity and it was stated here and

640
01:32:50,560 --> 01:32:58,560
we've missed another 30 or 45 days in
the process because I had to go receive

641
01:32:55,760 --> 01:33:02,480
council's direction to agree that we're
in conformity so that he will then take

642
01:33:00,960 --> 01:33:06,320
it through the next process. So, I
respect the fact that they don't have

643
01:33:04,080 --> 01:33:08,000
the authority to do something that's
already been done,

644
01:33:07,679 --> 01:33:12,000
» right?
>> But but understanding that I can't do

645
01:33:10,080 --> 01:33:17,920
that process according to the city
planner because his interpretation

646
01:33:16,080 --> 01:33:23,199
as written is that we're not in
conformance and without the council

647
01:33:21,199 --> 01:33:28,960
stating that we are in fact in
conformance, he's not going to take it

648
01:33:25,840 --> 01:33:32,239
to the next steps. And there creates a
pretty significant problem that I'm

649
01:33:30,480 --> 01:33:39,840
trying to avoid here for all parties
involved. So, what what am I supposed to

650
01:33:35,760 --> 01:33:43,360
do if if in writing all 81 pages tells
me that the reason why we weren't

651
01:33:41,840 --> 01:33:49,440
successful getting on the planning and
zoning commission docket was because his

652
01:33:46,320 --> 01:33:55,360
interpretation was is that our site plan
uh suggested a use and or what have you

653
01:33:53,199 --> 01:34:00,080
that's not in conformance with my plan
development district. And you're telling

654
01:33:57,679 --> 01:34:05,199
me in section 5-1D to the best of your
memory, we're not writing that down. uh

655
01:34:02,159 --> 01:34:09,360
to the best of your knowledge that 51D
states that that's only applicable at

656
01:34:07,760 --> 01:34:12,960
the time we're establishing a plan
development district that's already been

657
01:34:11,120 --> 01:34:16,800
created and established,
>> right?

658
01:34:13,440 --> 01:34:21,600
» What is my next steps? Because right now
I'm being told that we're in a we're

659
01:34:18,960 --> 01:34:25,040
we're in we're stuck and that's not
acceptable obviously.

660
01:34:22,960 --> 01:34:30,880
» Okay. Yeah. Well, I'm not trying to say
that you're stuck. What I'm gonna say is

661
01:34:27,760 --> 01:34:35,760
uh first off um it actually is
absolutely is 5-1. I do know the number.

662
01:34:33,120 --> 01:34:41,280
So first off we got that um I got a
reputation uphold. Second um I only know

663
01:34:38,880 --> 01:34:46,159
a little bit about what's going on. I
don't know all the details. Sure. So

664
01:34:43,520 --> 01:34:50,639
maybe the next option would be is have a
meeting not just with the parties that

665
01:34:48,960 --> 01:34:56,639
were involved but the parties that were
involved and some others if you need you

666
01:34:53,760 --> 01:35:01,360
know like myself and also Bree he's new
he he just started um uh you know two

667
01:34:59,520 --> 01:35:06,239
days ago uh and he's been drinking water
from a hose like he says so that's uh

668
01:35:04,239 --> 01:35:10,960
that we need to get him caught up too.
So I think that would be one thing is to

669
01:35:08,719 --> 01:35:16,719
start there and see where we are. Now,
here's the thing, and I I think I've

670
01:35:12,719 --> 01:35:22,639
said this before, but the PD that was
adopted August the or October the 11th,

671
01:35:19,600 --> 01:35:28,159
2022 did have a concept plan attached to
the ordinance. So, that is the law on

672
01:35:26,560 --> 01:35:34,400
that. I don't think anybody would
disagree with that. So, the question is,

673
01:35:30,880 --> 01:35:39,760
does the new concept plan conform with
that concept plan then? And if not, what

674
01:35:37,840 --> 01:35:43,920
has changed? Because there are avenues
and you know this as well as I do. There

675
01:35:41,840 --> 01:35:49,040
are avenues where there and and there
there may be a difference of opinion on

676
01:35:45,600 --> 01:35:53,600
what a minor deviation from the concept
plan is. I don't really have a problem

677
01:35:50,960 --> 01:35:57,120
if there's uh minor deviations saying
yeah this concept plan we're not going

678
01:35:55,280 --> 01:36:01,840
to have an issue with that. If they're
major then maybe we need to do an

679
01:35:59,120 --> 01:36:06,560
amendment to the PD. So and I think
that's something that the city can fast

680
01:36:04,800 --> 01:36:10,880
track. I think we can get that done
inside of a month. uh depending on if

681
01:36:09,040 --> 01:36:13,760
that's the the route that we want to go.
That's what I think.

682
01:36:11,679 --> 01:36:20,159
» Okay, let's pause for station
identification. I was stopped

683
01:36:17,920 --> 01:36:25,920
via a rejection
for nonconformance

684
01:36:23,199 --> 01:36:31,120
and beg and pleaded to get this
opportunity which I'm grateful to have

685
01:36:27,520 --> 01:36:38,159
had tonight to present as directed the
determination by this body as to whether

686
01:36:34,400 --> 01:36:44,800
or not our use was in conformance. And I
stated at the request of Mr. Sanchez and

687
01:36:41,600 --> 01:36:48,719
Mr. chairman to provide a narrative
stating my reasons as to why we were in

688
01:36:47,040 --> 01:36:55,199
conformance.
Was then told that the agenda was being

689
01:36:52,239 --> 01:36:59,520
printed as stated that the request was
for the city council to interpret plan

690
01:36:57,280 --> 01:37:06,880
development conformance.
Not trying to beat a dead horse.

691
01:37:02,639 --> 01:37:10,480
I'm here asking for them to confirm or
deny

692
01:37:08,960 --> 01:37:17,280
as to whether or not we're in
conformance as required because I can't

693
01:37:14,719 --> 01:37:22,960
go to the next step. I've provided
everything. I've provided all our

694
01:37:19,280 --> 01:37:27,760
checklist. I'm in conformance. I am at
the discretion of this gentleman right

695
01:37:25,280 --> 01:37:32,960
here who can't take me to the planning
and zoning commission to discuss site

696
01:37:30,960 --> 01:37:37,760
plan approval
items

697
01:37:35,119 --> 01:37:41,119
outside of the purview of deliberating
to whether or not we're even in

698
01:37:39,040 --> 01:37:45,280
conformance to get to a site plan
approval.

699
01:37:42,639 --> 01:37:49,199
So that's I I I totally respect and
understand and certainly not barking at

700
01:37:46,719 --> 01:37:54,800
you as it relates to
the fact of what was written on the

701
01:37:51,440 --> 01:37:59,040
agenda is in fact not even allowed or
applicable, which is a whole another

702
01:37:57,440 --> 01:38:04,239
problem.
We're creating more damages on myself

703
01:38:01,280 --> 01:38:07,440
here. What am I supposed to do next? I I
I don't know what else to sit down with

704
01:38:06,000 --> 01:38:11,520
this gentleman who's extremely
unreasonable with what we've already

705
01:38:09,280 --> 01:38:16,960
provided for him. And we've given all
kinds of information stating our

706
01:38:14,639 --> 01:38:22,000
perspective and our inside of our own
purview which seems to be rather limited

707
01:38:20,080 --> 01:38:26,719
stating how we are in fact in
conformance

708
01:38:24,159 --> 01:38:31,280
and he states that we have to go get
their blessing before we can go to the

709
01:38:29,119 --> 01:38:34,560
next step. I would love Mr. Mayor to ask
for freaking sight plan approval tonight

710
01:38:33,199 --> 01:38:40,639
but it's obviously not there.
>> Mr. Holla, I apologize Mr. Barry. He

711
01:38:38,719 --> 01:38:44,080
he's bringing up some new points. Um,
and I've been asked,

712
01:38:42,159 --> 01:38:47,520
» can we go back into executive session?
We have some more questions now. He's

713
01:38:45,920 --> 01:38:50,480
brought up some new points and I think
we

714
01:38:48,320 --> 01:38:53,360
» I think we owe Mr. Barry the correct
answers as we stated in there. And I

715
01:38:52,320 --> 01:38:58,800
want to make sure that's delivered
tonight. I do not I was told a good

716
01:38:55,920 --> 01:39:02,960
story that uh, you know, if you're off
by one inch as a carpenter, once it's

717
01:39:01,360 --> 01:39:06,320
built, you can't go back and redo it.
And I I don't want to put us in that

718
01:39:04,320 --> 01:39:09,840
situation. Uh, so I would like to take
us back into executive session. Do I

719
01:39:07,840 --> 01:39:12,320
have to read the paragraph again?
>> Yes, sir.

720
01:39:10,320 --> 01:39:16,000
» Okay. Uh, when we go back into executive
session, Payton, I'm going to need you

721
01:39:13,679 --> 01:39:19,119
to come in on this one. Uh, city council
for the city of Minton Chisum, Texas

722
01:39:17,520 --> 01:39:22,960
reserves the right to convene into
executive session at any time during the

723
01:39:20,880 --> 01:39:29,040
course of this meeting to discuss any of
the matters listed as authorized by

724
01:39:25,520 --> 01:39:33,679
Texas government code chapter 551073
real property. I'm going to do a fivem

725
01:39:31,119 --> 01:39:38,880
minute recess so that anyone can use the
restroom and then we will be in

726
01:39:35,199 --> 01:39:38,880
executive session at 8:05.

727
01:41:58,560 --> 01:42:01,719
Don't worry.

728
01:42:18,880 --> 01:42:21,880
So

729
01:42:51,600 --> 01:42:55,080
That was nice.

730
01:44:37,679 --> 01:44:39,840
ladies.

731
01:45:19,119 --> 01:45:22,119
Where's

732
01:45:30,639 --> 01:45:33,639
Excuse

733
01:45:40,560 --> 01:45:43,560
me.

734
01:46:16,639 --> 01:46:19,639
system.

735
01:46:26,400 --> 01:46:29,800
So, we're just going

736
01:47:25,040 --> 01:47:28,040
Speech. Speech. Speech.

737
01:48:43,199 --> 01:48:46,159
It's all around

738
01:48:56,000 --> 01:48:59,400
It's not

739
01:49:22,870 --> 01:49:26,040
[Applause]

740
01:50:06,800 --> 01:50:11,159
to be able to address anything.

741
01:50:19,760 --> 01:50:22,760
Those

742
01:50:29,040 --> 01:50:32,280
are also

743
01:51:10,080 --> 01:51:13,080
That's

744
01:52:01,199 --> 01:52:03,679
at the same

745
01:52:35,280 --> 01:52:38,760
That was an extraordinary

746
01:52:59,920 --> 01:53:03,080
Oh yeah.

747
01:53:20,880 --> 01:53:24,119
What's this?

748
01:53:35,840 --> 01:53:39,239
Happy birthday.

749
01:53:57,520 --> 01:54:00,679
to discover

750
01:54:12,480 --> 01:54:15,480
Awesome.

751
01:56:04,159 --> 01:56:06,400
Wonderful.

752
01:56:33,599 --> 01:56:36,920
This is Yes,

753
01:57:12,560 --> 01:57:15,719
I know

754
01:58:50,480 --> 01:58:54,400
That's
the

755
01:59:19,760 --> 01:59:22,920
This morning

756
01:59:46,719 --> 01:59:49,719
Serious.

757
02:00:24,800 --> 02:00:31,560
We're just waiting on Mr. Holla.
Just waiting on Mr. Holla.

758
02:02:40,080 --> 02:02:48,000
It is 8:22. I appreciate your patience.
We are back from executive session.

759
02:02:45,840 --> 02:02:55,040
Um I'm going to end up turning this back
over to Mr. Holla. Um but I I do want to

760
02:02:51,599 --> 02:03:03,199
stress um
to Mr. Barry that I'm going to ask staff

761
02:02:59,440 --> 02:03:08,239
Fabric and Mr. Holla to uh and again Mr.
is going to speak in a minute, but I

762
02:03:04,880 --> 02:03:12,719
have asked them to both reach out to you
tomorrow, figure out a time they can set

763
02:03:10,159 --> 02:03:18,880
up a conference call uh so that all
three of you can be on the phone. Um I

764
02:03:15,840 --> 02:03:24,320
apologize. Um
I I accept responsibility as a mayor

765
02:03:21,840 --> 02:03:29,760
that this should have been done better,
handled better. Um, at the end of the

766
02:03:27,440 --> 02:03:33,760
day, I can't regulate how developers do
things, but I can take responsibility

767
02:03:31,920 --> 02:03:37,440
when the city fails to do what I would
think would be for any developer

768
02:03:35,599 --> 02:03:43,360
standing in front of us, whether it's
you, Mr. Palani, Mr. Whittle, whomever

769
02:03:39,599 --> 02:03:47,440
it is, I feel we're here to serve and
that's what we should do. And so, please

770
02:03:45,280 --> 02:03:51,599
accept my apologies. And with that being
said, Mr. Hollow.

771
02:03:49,199 --> 02:03:55,520
» Thanks, Mayor. Appreciate it. So, I
think uh and I appreciate you doing

772
02:03:53,760 --> 02:03:58,400
that, Mayor. And even though you didn't
have to, I think it was just a

773
02:03:56,480 --> 02:04:02,320
misunderstanding of the way our
ordinance was written and so it never

774
02:04:00,080 --> 02:04:06,639
should have been on the agenda. And so
yeah, I'm happy to to get with Breeze

775
02:04:04,880 --> 02:04:10,480
and and we'll sit down just to see where
we are. You definitely have the option.

776
02:04:09,040 --> 02:04:14,800
You can say, "Hey, look, I appreciate
it, but no, thank you." Uh, and we can

777
02:04:12,719 --> 02:04:18,480
get it on the the site plan approval on
the next P&Z agenda if that's an option

778
02:04:17,119 --> 02:04:22,560
that you want to take. And we can talk
through all that about exactly how you

779
02:04:20,960 --> 02:04:27,920
might want to do that. uh because
there's a couple different avenues to

780
02:04:24,159 --> 02:04:31,360
getting that done. So, um I would expect
uh in fact, even if you have enough time

781
02:04:29,920 --> 02:04:35,679
tomorrow afternoon, we're going to have
a meeting here at 6:30 tomorrow night.

782
02:04:33,599 --> 02:04:39,440
So, I don't have anything uh planned in
the afternoon because I made

783
02:04:36,800 --> 02:04:44,080
arrangements to uh uh to be here. I
don't mind getting early being here

784
02:04:41,119 --> 02:04:47,679
early for precess time. Um if y'all want
to come, you know, say 3:00, 3:30,

785
02:04:46,719 --> 02:04:51,360
something like that.
>> Would that work for you, Mr. Barry?

786
02:04:49,760 --> 02:04:54,000
» I'll make whatever work. I just want
assurance that we're going to be on the

787
02:04:52,560 --> 02:04:58,159
next planning and zoning commission for
a site plan approval.

788
02:04:55,199 --> 02:05:03,520
» Let's let's do that for sure. But if you
can be with Mr. Holla and Mr. Fris

789
02:05:00,880 --> 02:05:07,119
Kabona tomorrow at 3:30 here at city
hall and then that way y'all can have

790
02:05:05,040 --> 02:05:10,239
face to face time versus phone call,
would that work for you Mr. Reiano as

791
02:05:08,800 --> 02:05:13,599
well?
>> Okay.

792
02:05:12,960 --> 02:05:16,719
Um, and
>> to answer your question, one of the

793
02:05:15,199 --> 02:05:24,080
things that was discussed and they will
go into it tomorrow was is October 21st

794
02:05:21,520 --> 02:05:28,400
is the earliest we can get you on a PNZ
due to notices having to be mailed out.

795
02:05:26,080 --> 02:05:33,599
Is that correct? And then that would put
you on the 28th council meeting, but

796
02:05:31,760 --> 02:05:37,760
they have I want them to be able to talk
to you about other options as well. Uh,

797
02:05:35,920 --> 02:05:40,960
and they can do that tomorrow in y'all's
meeting at 3:30.

798
02:05:39,119 --> 02:05:44,880
» That's all I can ask for. I appreciate
everybody's patience. Thank you. Thank

799
02:05:42,560 --> 02:05:48,119
you, Mr. Barry and Mr. Riano. Thank you
so much.

800
02:05:54,159 --> 02:06:03,800
Okay, so no action taken on 8.2
and again I appreciate everyone's

801
02:05:59,360 --> 02:06:03,800
patience. Um

802
02:06:04,480 --> 02:06:12,960
8 8.3 discuss and consider a resolution
restricting the use of proceeds of bonds

803
02:06:10,960 --> 02:06:19,520
issued to finance public improvements in
the Sonoma Public Improvement District.

804
02:06:17,199 --> 02:06:21,119
» I'll entertain a motion.
>> So move.

805
02:06:20,239 --> 02:06:25,440
» Second.
>> Second.

806
02:06:23,040 --> 02:06:30,400
» Is this one back to you or the city?
>> This is going to be me and then Mayor

807
02:06:27,440 --> 02:06:34,639
Pro Tim Brewer. Um, council and mayor,
you may remember several months ago,

808
02:06:32,480 --> 02:06:41,679
Mayor Prom Brewer and I were assigned
the project of exploring the sale of the

809
02:06:37,360 --> 02:06:47,840
water pipes in Soma Verde to RCH. We met
with our pit administrator P3 Works who

810
02:06:45,360 --> 02:06:52,719
uh totally understands that there was
developer money also went into the

811
02:06:50,560 --> 02:06:58,800
infrastructure of Sonoma Verde 1
through5 but they wanted us to have a

812
02:06:55,440 --> 02:07:03,840
document in place that stated PID money
did not pay for water infrastructure.

813
02:07:01,679 --> 02:07:08,960
This is the resolution in front of you
tonight and then we can move forward

814
02:07:06,079 --> 02:07:12,639
with next steps. I appreciate you doing
that, Bev. And Mayor Pro Tim, I'll turn

815
02:07:10,880 --> 02:07:17,119
it back over to you.
>> I'll just add one of the reasons we're

816
02:07:14,719 --> 02:07:21,119
having to do this as well as we don't
want to lose the tax exempt status of

817
02:07:19,280 --> 02:07:25,920
the bonds.
If we resell the pipes and the bond

818
02:07:23,760 --> 02:07:29,119
money was used, we'd lose the tax exempt
status of that.

819
02:07:27,280 --> 02:07:33,679
» Ah,
that's a very good key point and that

820
02:07:31,199 --> 02:07:37,760
might have answered Mr. Dean's question.
Um, Mr. Mr. London, I'll start with you

821
02:07:36,079 --> 02:07:40,960
if you have any questions for Mr. Brewer
or M.

822
02:07:38,880 --> 02:07:44,400
» I'm good. Actually, it was the the tax
question.

823
02:07:41,920 --> 02:07:46,719
» Mr. Towry, I know Mr. Brewer is good.
Mr. Dean

824
02:07:45,440 --> 02:07:50,000
» answers my question. Thank you.
>> I figured it did I.

825
02:07:48,560 --> 02:07:54,800
» Mr. Goodly, you can do it.
>> Hit Mr. Powers. Well, with that, I think

826
02:07:52,880 --> 02:07:56,800
we'll take a vote. All those in favor
say I.

827
02:07:55,920 --> 02:08:02,000
» I. I.
>> I.

828
02:07:59,679 --> 02:08:05,000
» Well done.
>> I

829
02:08:06,639 --> 02:08:15,360
Very well done. And on 8.4, um this is
to discuss and approve a bid for the

830
02:08:13,119 --> 02:08:20,239
remodel of the old fire station. I will
be

831
02:08:16,880 --> 02:08:26,960
uh removing this. However, I'm going to
um direct staff to do an RFP on this uh

832
02:08:24,400 --> 02:08:32,480
and bring it back to council with those
if you can please for brief.

833
02:08:30,960 --> 02:08:36,960
8.5
Discuss and consider approving an

834
02:08:34,079 --> 02:08:41,199
ordinance amending the 2024 2025 fiscal
year budget finding municipal purposes

835
02:08:39,360 --> 02:08:45,440
authorizing expenditures providing for a
severability clause and providing for an

836
02:08:43,199 --> 02:08:48,800
effective date. Uh I'll entertain a
motion on this.

837
02:08:47,440 --> 02:08:51,119
» So move second.
>> Second.

838
02:08:49,599 --> 02:08:56,079
» And this one looks like it's going to
Jeff.

839
02:08:53,920 --> 02:09:02,320
Thank you, Mayor and Council. This is
just wrapping up the uh current fiscal

840
02:08:59,440 --> 02:09:06,000
year's budget. Um the amendments are
based on additional revenues that came

841
02:09:04,320 --> 02:09:15,199
in, expenses, some of which were
approved at by council for expenditures

842
02:09:09,280 --> 02:09:20,159
throughout the year. Um some uh are just
line items that we either didn't spend

843
02:09:16,800 --> 02:09:26,239
as much as budgeted or we spent more. Um
so this is just basically tidying up the

844
02:09:21,920 --> 02:09:26,239
budget for the for the year.

845
02:09:26,719 --> 02:09:34,079

committee members.

897
02:13:22,560 --> 02:13:29,920
This is just an item directing to
consider directing staff uh to advertise

898
02:13:28,000 --> 02:13:34,960
for the finance and audit committee
members.

899
02:13:32,320 --> 02:13:40,880
So directives.
Anybody have any questions on that one?

900
02:13:38,400 --> 02:13:44,800
» All right. 8.9.
Discuss and consider approving the

901
02:13:42,320 --> 02:13:48,960
creation of an economic
No. Because we're director.

902
02:13:47,360 --> 02:13:53,760
uh discuss and consider approving the
creation of an economic development

903
02:13:51,280 --> 02:13:59,040
committee.
>> This is also an item to consider

904
02:13:55,760 --> 02:14:03,760
directing staff to create the creation
of an economic development committee.

905
02:14:02,239 --> 02:14:07,040
» Um does anybody have any questions on
this one?

906
02:14:04,320 --> 02:14:12,079
» And advertise for volunteers.
>> Anybody have any questions?

907
02:14:09,280 --> 02:14:17,360
» Uh yeah. So I discovered I was on the
economic I was the economic liaison.

908
02:14:15,520 --> 02:14:20,960
» Yeah. You can blame uh there's an
outgoing city manager that you can blame

909
02:14:19,920 --> 02:14:25,199
for that one.
>> I wasn't invited to Croatia and Italy on

910
02:14:23,360 --> 02:14:29,760
the trip, so sorry.
>> There you go.

911
02:14:27,119 --> 02:14:34,560
» All right. Uh yeah, no, that's fine. I
think this would be great. I I haven't

912
02:14:31,360 --> 02:14:38,560
quite thought in my head how we want
this. I actually would want whoever

913
02:14:36,560 --> 02:14:43,760
volunteers, the group that volunteers to
kind of give the direction. But I think

914
02:14:41,520 --> 02:14:47,679
uh when we talk about trying to recruit
businesses here, it would be very

915
02:14:45,520 --> 02:14:54,560
helpful for them to maybe give us some
ideas on what is a very uh enticing way

916
02:14:52,719 --> 02:14:59,679
to to recruit people.
>> So I had one of my many meetings with

917
02:14:57,199 --> 02:15:03,520
Free today. Uh and I know he's going to
be meeting with all of you on council.

918
02:15:01,440 --> 02:15:09,119
He actually had a really awesome idea
when we spoke. So, I'll let him share

919
02:15:05,199 --> 02:15:14,000
that when y'all meet. Um, but u make
sure that you have the input on the uh

920
02:15:12,400 --> 02:15:18,960
process since you're going to be the one
heading it and next time invite Bev to

921
02:15:15,920 --> 02:15:22,639
Croatia, you won't be on a committee.
>> Mr. Towry, do you have anything on this

922
02:15:20,480 --> 02:15:27,520
one? I was just going to say uh once it
is um um once the committee is put

923
02:15:26,159 --> 02:15:31,599
together, it would be nice to do some
kind of like workshop or something maybe

924
02:15:29,119 --> 02:15:35,199
with with council just to kind of get
their feedback and kind of everybody's

925
02:15:33,440 --> 02:15:40,079
on the same page of the vision going
forward and what we want to bring in. I

926
02:15:37,440 --> 02:15:45,199
think that may be helpful as well.
>> Yeah, absolutely.

927
02:15:43,280 --> 02:15:49,599
» Absolutely. All right. So, you got
direction on that? Are you good to go?

928
02:15:47,920 --> 02:15:54,800
» Okay, next one. will discuss and
consider action to approve the requests

929
02:15:51,920 --> 02:15:58,719
for qualification notice and packets to
be sent to engineering firms

930
02:15:56,079 --> 02:16:02,000
specializing in road maintenance. I'll
entertain a motion.

931
02:16:01,199 --> 02:16:05,760
» So moved.
>> Is there a second?

932
02:16:05,040 --> 02:16:11,040
» Second.
>> All right. And that one will go to

933
02:16:09,440 --> 02:16:13,599
» This one actually goes to Councilman
Powers.

934
02:16:11,920 --> 02:16:17,760
» Councilman Powers.
>> Uh yes. This was the request that we

935
02:16:16,079 --> 02:16:23,040
made a few a couple of city council
meetings ago. Excuse me. Excuse me. I

936
02:16:20,239 --> 02:16:27,679
apologize. 8.9 says, "Discuss and
consider approving the creation. That's

937
02:16:25,040 --> 02:16:31,520
not direction." So, I apologize. Um, let
me entertain a motion on 8.9 to

938
02:16:30,639 --> 02:16:32,639
» move.
>> Second.

939
02:16:32,240 --> 02:16:34,639
» Second.
>> All in favor say I.

940
02:16:34,240 --> 02:16:37,439
» I.
>> I.

941
02:16:35,200 --> 02:16:41,760
» I. Thank you, council, for catching
that.

942
02:16:38,960 --> 02:16:46,319
» There you are, Angela. Apologize.
Now, 8.10. We've already read We've

943
02:16:44,639 --> 02:16:48,960
already taken the motion and second, and
I apologize for cutting you off, Mr.

944
02:16:47,519 --> 02:16:51,519
hours, but we had to get that part done.
Back to you, sir.

945
02:16:49,760 --> 02:16:58,240
» Quite. All right. Yeah, I'll be very
brief. This was from a couple city

946
02:16:53,200 --> 02:17:02,559
council meetings ago where we were um
sub submitted wanted to do this so that

947
02:17:00,800 --> 02:17:07,840
we could have a professional
organization

948
02:17:04,160 --> 02:17:13,599
uh do a study on the uh streets both
public and private in our city and

949
02:17:10,719 --> 02:17:18,719
ascertain their you know all the stats
about them and their their uh

950
02:17:16,080 --> 02:17:23,439
construction type and the condition that
they're in. so that we would have an

951
02:17:20,800 --> 02:17:29,679
idea of what would be needed in today's
dollars to bring all of those

952
02:17:27,359 --> 02:17:34,080
streets and roads up to standard if
that's what we choose to do. At least

953
02:17:31,679 --> 02:17:41,599
we'll know what the size of the issue is
facing us. Um and then with that

954
02:17:38,559 --> 02:17:45,359
um we the apparently staff has gone out
and

955
02:17:43,120 --> 02:17:49,840
look and located two or three companies
that we can contact.

956
02:17:48,160 --> 02:17:54,399
You have not done that yet.
>> When you issue an RFQ in the newspaper,

957
02:17:52,319 --> 02:17:57,200
it's up to them to reach back out to us.
>> Okay. So, have So, we have not done that

958
02:17:56,319 --> 02:18:00,319
part yet.
>> We have not issued the RFQ. That's what

959
02:17:59,120 --> 02:18:04,080
we're voting on tonight.
>> Correct. Okay. Want to make sure I had

960
02:18:02,399 --> 02:18:12,479
that right. So, we're going to direct
you to to take care of that.

961
02:18:09,040 --> 02:18:16,639
Is that okay with everybody?
>> So, so directed.

962
02:18:14,399 --> 02:18:18,800
» All right. So, all those in favor say I.
>> I. I

963
02:18:18,160 --> 02:18:21,800
» I
>> I

964
02:18:23,439 --> 02:18:30,639
» Next up, before I read it, Fabric,
normally Angela reads the agenda items.

965
02:18:28,960 --> 02:18:35,359
I just did it tonight just to expedite
us because of the length of 8.2.

966
02:18:33,679 --> 02:18:39,280
8.11
discuss and consider approval of a final

967
02:18:37,359 --> 02:18:44,000
plat of one lot necessary for
development. The property is a 3acre lot

968
02:18:41,760 --> 02:18:48,880
track of land located on the north side
of state highway 205 between League Road

969
02:18:46,399 --> 02:18:53,760
and FM 548 within the city limits of
Mlin and Chisum. The track is fully

970
02:18:51,040 --> 02:19:00,639
zoned in the single family residential
SF 2.5 district. I'll entertain a

971
02:18:57,760 --> 02:19:03,040
motion.
So move second.

972
02:19:02,240 --> 02:19:09,679
» Second.
>> And that opens it up for discussion.

973
02:19:07,200 --> 02:19:13,760
Who is on this one?
city please.

974
02:19:11,920 --> 02:19:18,719
» Good evening. Uh the applicant is
requesting approval of of a final plat

975
02:19:16,000 --> 02:19:23,519
of one lot necessary for development. Uh
this applicant specifically obtained a

976
02:19:21,359 --> 02:19:28,719
board of adjustment approval on August
13th of this year um for this to be

977
02:19:26,319 --> 02:19:33,840
correctly platted. Um that was for the
access easement to exceed 600 ft um as

978
02:19:32,240 --> 02:19:37,679
outlined in our subdivision ordinance.
So now that that BOA approval has been

979
02:19:35,760 --> 02:19:40,719
obtained, this plot is in complete
conformance with the subdivision

980
02:19:39,200 --> 02:19:46,240
ordinance.
Happy to answer any questions. Mr.

981
02:19:42,960 --> 02:19:49,359
London, do you have any questions?
>> When I was reading through it, I was

982
02:19:47,840 --> 02:19:56,880
just going through it again. I saw that
this is actually a 40 acre tract.

983
02:19:53,040 --> 02:20:02,479
» Uh it's 28 acres roughly and the land
was conveyed without pladding. So this

984
02:19:59,680 --> 02:20:05,200
was more so a retroactive effort uh more
than anything. So,

985
02:20:03,840 --> 02:20:07,200
» okay. So, they're just bringing into
conformity with what they want to do

986
02:20:06,399 --> 02:20:09,840
with an
>> Yes, sir. That's correct. They went

987
02:20:08,399 --> 02:20:14,399
through Burgess through our residential
review entity and they got a permit hold

988
02:20:12,479 --> 02:20:18,720
with them that triggered the platting
process with me and then that and then

989
02:20:16,560 --> 02:20:23,040
after initial review found out a
variance was needed. So, they had to go

990
02:20:20,240 --> 02:20:27,520
BOA1 and then platting two.
>> Okay. So, they're repl

991
02:20:25,920 --> 02:20:30,720
they're only final platting the
threeacre track that's listed in the

992
02:20:29,680 --> 02:20:35,600
staff report.
>> Great. Councilman London, if I can help

993
02:20:33,439 --> 02:20:40,399
with this a little bit. This is a large
family track that pieces were just given

994
02:20:38,160 --> 02:20:44,640
off by grandparents.
And so to get their building permit, it

995
02:20:42,399 --> 02:20:47,840
had to be legally plant platted.
>> And that's that's why I was asking

996
02:20:46,000 --> 02:20:51,840
because I I originally read in there
somewhere and I can't remember exact

997
02:20:49,359 --> 02:20:56,960
where I think it's on page 262 where it
was talking about there was a 40 acre

998
02:20:54,000 --> 02:21:02,240
and then the the divisions and so Okay.
Thank you,

999
02:20:58,560 --> 02:21:04,640
» Mr. Towering. Mr. Brewer.
Mr. Dean,

1000
02:21:03,040 --> 02:21:10,240
» I think it's important to note PNZ
approved it seven to nothing. Um, so

1001
02:21:08,720 --> 02:21:13,520
I don't know if that means we're super
majority or what.

1002
02:21:12,080 --> 02:21:18,000
» It's pretty strong.
>> Okay,

1003
02:21:15,280 --> 02:21:21,439
good. Good
powers.

1004
02:21:19,760 --> 02:21:27,920
» All right, we've had the motion and the
second. All those in favor say I. I

1005
02:21:26,560 --> 02:21:31,240
» I
>> I

1006
02:21:28,240 --> 02:21:31,240
» I

1007
02:21:33,760 --> 02:21:41,920
» All righty. That takes us to our council
member reports and announcements.

1008
02:21:39,840 --> 02:21:49,600
Jeff,
>> I do not have anything this evening.

1009
02:21:44,640 --> 02:21:54,560
» Hey, Chief Mr. London.
Um, I'm just going to say, mayor, thank

1010
02:21:51,840 --> 02:22:00,080
you for putting together and uh allowing
me to participate in that operation to

1011
02:21:57,840 --> 02:22:03,600
get that sign and flag out for the
Charlie Kirk Memorial. I really

1012
02:22:02,080 --> 02:22:07,520
appreciate that. And we got a lot of
positive feedback from that. So, thank

1013
02:22:05,840 --> 02:22:13,439
you.
>> Operation Lone Ranger. Uh, for the

1014
02:22:10,240 --> 02:22:16,439
record, I was uh Kimosabi and he was
Tanto.

1015
02:22:16,560 --> 02:22:24,319
Mr. Brewer.
Uh, I just wanted to say, um, thank you

1016
02:22:22,080 --> 02:22:31,520
to Bev.
Um,

1017
02:22:26,640 --> 02:22:36,479
she's been a a great den mother to us,
>> particularly to one person in

1018
02:22:33,280 --> 02:22:42,080
particular, but um,
but I but I I really do appreciate the

1019
02:22:39,520 --> 02:22:49,840
work you've been doing. um the
transition from a general law to a home

1020
02:22:45,520 --> 02:22:54,960
rule city. It it's one thing to get the
document done. It's another thing to get

1021
02:22:51,520 --> 02:22:58,240
the vote uh get approval. But the third
and most important thing is the

1022
02:22:56,240 --> 02:23:04,479
implementation and you jumped right into
it and got it done. So thank you for

1023
02:23:01,040 --> 02:23:09,960
that. I enjoyed working with you.
>> Mr. London, I'm going to give you an

1024
02:23:05,760 --> 02:23:09,960
opportunity to say something to Bev.

1025
02:23:10,560 --> 02:23:18,640
Absolutely. Thank you for all of your um
I'll say guidance and sometimes using

1026
02:23:16,240 --> 02:23:24,560
the foot against my backside to gently
guide me. Um I I do need that. So, you

1027
02:23:21,920 --> 02:23:29,680
know, you you've been a a vital part of
this city for a very long time and we

1028
02:23:27,680 --> 02:23:34,319
definitely want you to stick around and
continue providing your input. I know

1029
02:23:32,000 --> 02:23:37,920
you're not going anywhere. So, I do have
a bottle of bourbon with their name on

1030
02:23:35,920 --> 02:23:41,840
it. So, we'll take care of that. Thank
you, Ben.

1031
02:23:39,200 --> 02:23:45,439
Alrighty, Mr. Tower.
>> Yeah, I do appreciate it. I think it

1032
02:23:43,359 --> 02:23:50,560
could have been better timing having you
come in with all us new rascals up here

1033
02:23:48,880 --> 02:23:56,000
trying to figure this out and I felt
like you that Denmother is probably the

1034
02:23:52,800 --> 02:24:00,479
perfect we were just, you know, so I I
do appreciate all the guidance and um

1035
02:23:58,319 --> 02:24:03,359
and I couldn't ask for a better uh
person by our side to help us through

1036
02:24:02,080 --> 02:24:06,240
this.
>> Even though I wouldn't let you wear a

1037
02:24:04,720 --> 02:24:11,000
hat.
>> Now I got to cut my hair more often.

1038
02:24:08,000 --> 02:24:11,000
Okay.

1039
02:24:14,080 --> 02:24:21,760
» All right. Mr. H. Uh, Mr. Dean,
sentiments. Uh, exactly. I I'm pretty

1040
02:24:20,319 --> 02:24:27,160
sure when you took the job, you didn't
know you'd be kneede in in sewage.

1041
02:24:27,359 --> 02:24:35,840
Uh, and yeah,
>> Mr. If you only knew that that that

1042
02:24:32,160 --> 02:24:41,680
wastewater are my least two favorite
words through this whole eight months

1043
02:24:38,160 --> 02:24:46,319
cuz it started on week one where I sat
down and they started talking to me

1044
02:24:43,520 --> 02:24:50,160
about sewer lines and expansions and
lift stations and I'm like I had no

1045
02:24:49,120 --> 02:24:55,840
idea.
>> She did look a little comfortable with

1046
02:24:51,680 --> 02:25:00,240
the so thanks for that. I I I also would
want to call out Mayor McNeel. I don't

1047
02:24:58,240 --> 02:25:05,280
know if that Charlie Kirk Memorial could
have happened without what he did. Uh he

1048
02:25:02,800 --> 02:25:11,840
is the go-to guy in Rock Wall County to
make a production like that. And so, um

1049
02:25:08,560 --> 02:25:17,520
I I was happy we had a chance to uh to
honor the memory of of Charlie Kirk and

1050
02:25:14,880 --> 02:25:23,040
uh Mayor McNeel helped helped that to
happen. So, appreciate it.

1051
02:25:20,640 --> 02:25:27,760
» Thank you. Um you did surprise me and
then didn't realize your wife got a

1052
02:25:24,960 --> 02:25:30,720
candid shot of us. So, that was We now
have to keep an eye on Helen.

1053
02:25:29,120 --> 02:25:35,800
» Yes, I did not know she was taking
pictures. That was not Mr. Good.

1054
02:25:35,920 --> 02:25:42,560
» Uh, I just wanted to let everyone know
norm normally I'm doing my second

1055
02:25:40,319 --> 02:25:46,000
Wednesdays at Rosa's meeting with
council do breakfast. Uh, this month

thank you. Thank you for helping us all

1060
02:26:09,040 --> 02:26:16,960
come on and and really for somebody that
has to have the dots connected but maybe

1061
02:26:14,960 --> 02:26:22,000
their brain doesn't go fast enough. You
always slowed it down for me, connected

1062
02:26:19,280 --> 02:26:27,040
the dots. Um, I really appreciate it
because you probably had to overexlain

1063
02:26:24,560 --> 02:26:31,040
things. Um, and I just I can't tell you
how much I appreciate you and um, just

1064
02:26:29,840 --> 02:26:35,280
how much you've done for this community
over all the years. So, thank you.

1065
02:26:33,680 --> 02:26:43,200
» There will be lots of jokes, Mr.
Goodwin. Lots of jokes, Mr. Powers.

1066
02:26:41,200 --> 02:26:48,640
Uh, you've already heard me say many
times that you're a treasure for this

1067
02:26:46,160 --> 02:26:53,600
city and, uh, you've been here since
1980. you've had your finger in the

1068
02:26:51,520 --> 02:26:59,520
pies, fingers in the pie ever since
then, wearing so many different hats.

1069
02:26:56,319 --> 02:27:04,720
And uh so somebody that has that kind of
of time in the city 45 years uh and been

1070
02:27:03,040 --> 02:27:08,880
active the whole time, it's truly a
treasure. And I know you're tired of

1071
02:27:06,560 --> 02:27:13,840
hearing all these compliments, but I'll
give you one more. Um and I've already

1072
02:27:11,120 --> 02:27:21,920
said it earlier. I'm looking forward to
seeing you up there stating your un

1073
02:27:18,160 --> 02:27:25,200
unfiltered opinion on various topics
that may come up.

1074
02:27:23,120 --> 02:27:29,439
» You are probably the only one sitting up
there that is looking

1075
02:27:26,560 --> 02:27:34,880
» say do you really want that?
>> 100%.

1076
02:27:30,880 --> 02:27:40,160
» Be know how to give a filter.
>> Mr. Holla, do you have anything?

1077
02:27:36,960 --> 02:27:44,319
» I do. I appreciate it. there. I I mean,
Bev, I always knew I've known you for

1078
02:27:42,240 --> 02:27:48,720
close to 20 years now. I always knew you
were smart. I mean, you showed that with

1079
02:27:46,640 --> 02:27:53,280
with phone calls that we had, you know,
during the day, at night, on the

1080
02:27:50,640 --> 02:27:56,000
weekends, and how you totally took
advantage of the fact I love you would

1081
02:27:54,800 --> 02:27:59,600
never build a city for that and the
thousands of dollars you saved them. So,

1082
02:27:57,600 --> 02:28:02,560
you showed me you were smart. You know,
even when you would call just to

1083
02:28:00,880 --> 02:28:07,680
complain about how you to talk slowly,
connect the dots for Council Member

1084
02:28:03,840 --> 02:28:11,359
Goodwin. He wasn't. I I never I never
mind it. And actually, as soon as you

1085
02:28:09,840 --> 02:28:15,920
said that, I whispered, "But Bev, I got
I said, I got one." But in all

1086
02:28:13,680 --> 02:28:20,479
seriousness, I I worked with you early
on. We kept in touch during the times

1087
02:28:18,319 --> 02:28:25,439
that I wasn't a part of the city, so I
always knew what was going on in the

1088
02:28:22,080 --> 02:28:28,720
city. And I remember thinking, "Oh,
okay. You know, Bev's got a lot a lot of

1089
02:28:27,439 --> 02:28:32,000
that she can offer as a city
administrator." I said, I I there's a

1090
02:28:30,640 --> 02:28:37,040
lot there that she can do. My only
concern is she hasn't actually done the

1091
02:28:34,160 --> 02:28:41,040
job. So, it was there were times that I
literally forgot that you hadn't been a

1092
02:28:39,200 --> 02:28:46,880
city administrator her whole life. And I
I've told you more than once and and I

1093
02:28:42,960 --> 02:28:52,479
mean it that it you missed your call. I
think you are you you just jumped into

1094
02:28:50,000 --> 02:28:58,319
the job. You had natural instincts a
ppeaciousness about the the job and how

1095
02:28:55,680 --> 02:29:03,600
to do the job and and what how to react
and what to say and what to do that you

1096
02:29:00,640 --> 02:29:06,720
you can't always teach somebody. Sure,
people can learn it, but you didn't

1097
02:29:05,040 --> 02:29:11,600
necessarily need, you know, to learn
that. You just the actual, you know,

1098
02:29:09,439 --> 02:29:17,040
training, seminars, whatever, whatever.
Um, you you didn't have that, but you

1099
02:29:15,200 --> 02:29:22,240
just had a natural ability to do it. And
it just really over time it really

1100
02:29:20,000 --> 02:29:26,240
amazed me and I appreciated that about
you and I appreciated the fact that you

1101
02:29:24,479 --> 02:29:31,760
know all seriousness is you don't really
give filtered opinions. I mean, you you

1102
02:29:28,720 --> 02:29:38,880
I I think that is good for us in cities
to know there's so much to what we do

1103
02:29:34,319 --> 02:29:42,479
that is in black and white and I've just
always

1104
02:29:40,640 --> 02:29:46,319
appreciated knowing you and you know me
meant a lot to me personally and how

1105
02:29:44,560 --> 02:29:50,399
you've been there for me when I've
needed things and how our friendship,

1106
02:29:48,720 --> 02:29:54,479
you know, has grown over this and I know
you're going to be around but it's going

1107
02:29:51,680 --> 02:29:58,240
to be, you know, it's going to be, you
know, different. I mean, you're you call

1108
02:29:56,479 --> 02:30:01,520
and and you know, honestly, half the
time that I never put anything on the

1109
02:29:59,520 --> 02:30:05,680
bill was was, you know, there may be 15
minutes, 20 minutes of city business and

1110
02:30:03,280 --> 02:30:09,439
then 15 or 20 minutes of us just, you
know, talking and so I I know you're

1111
02:30:08,080 --> 02:30:13,439
going to still be around. I am excited
about Breeze. I mean, I genuinely am.

1112
02:30:11,439 --> 02:30:17,760
I've known him for a while and I'm being
dead serious. I am very excited about

1113
02:30:15,439 --> 02:30:20,720
Freeze. He was the guy who was hoping it
was all I could do. I had to sit on my

1114
02:30:18,960 --> 02:30:25,040
hands and sit on my lips to not say
anything, you know, about Freeze. I'm

1115
02:30:22,640 --> 02:30:29,920
excited, but I'm I'm generally in and
with all my heart going to miss having

1116
02:30:27,120 --> 02:30:34,720
you around and and you'll always be my
friend. And if you ever need anything,

1117
02:30:31,200 --> 02:30:38,800
you can always just let me know that.
>> City Manager Cabona, when you've been

1118
02:30:36,880 --> 02:30:43,600
here 45 years, we'll say nice things
about you, too.

1119
02:30:41,040 --> 02:30:48,160
» Fabric, I'm going to allow you to say
some comments as well.

1120
02:30:44,720 --> 02:30:53,520
» Yes, sir. Thank you. Thank you. So, for
one, I do want to thank uh MV. Uh it

1121
02:30:51,280 --> 02:30:57,760
really doesn't take
too much to recognize just the wealth of

1122
02:30:56,160 --> 02:31:01,439
information, the wealth of knowledge
that she carries with her, the

1123
02:30:59,680 --> 02:31:06,399
commitment and dedication that she has
for the city of Mland and Chisum. Uh

1124
02:31:03,760 --> 02:31:09,840
I've been extremely lucky. Not most new
city managers don't have somebody to

1125
02:31:08,160 --> 02:31:14,960
hold their hands during the transition
process and she's been that for me.

1126
02:31:12,560 --> 02:31:19,520
She's graciously been willing to do that
for me and I really appreciate it. Um

1127
02:31:17,920 --> 02:31:24,160
and and that's part of the reason why
we've decided to keep her on an as

1128
02:31:22,080 --> 02:31:28,800
needed basis.
It's because she has such a she's such a

1129
02:31:26,319 --> 02:31:33,200
resource. Uh so thank you. Thank you on
a personal level. I really appreciate

1130
02:31:30,399 --> 02:31:36,319
it. Uh it's a pleasure. I'm I'm excited
to be able to join the city and I'm

1131
02:31:35,040 --> 02:31:39,280
looking forward to everything that we'll
be able to accomplish. I'm looking

1132
02:31:37,920 --> 02:31:44,560
forward to working with the team and
with you serving under your leadership,

1133
02:31:41,280 --> 02:31:48,319
mayor and council members. Um, and
secondly, I do want to remind you that

1134
02:31:46,640 --> 02:31:53,920
we have a joint training session
tomorrow evening at 6:30 p.m. that will

1135
02:31:51,439 --> 02:31:57,840
be provided by Mr. Holla and that would
be between uh with city council and PNZ.

1136
02:31:57,439 --> 02:32:01,439
Thank you.
>> And I do want to point out, mayor, that

1137
02:31:59,439 --> 02:32:05,920
another amazing thing about Bev, no one
probably in my 26 years of doing this

1138
02:32:03,439 --> 02:32:11,600
has ever asked for my advice more and
taken it less than Bev.

1139
02:32:08,960 --> 02:32:15,520
» I understand. Angela, I want you if you
want to say anything to Bev and then

1140
02:32:13,200 --> 02:32:21,120
I'll close this out.
>> Just want to say thank you for helping

1141
02:32:18,399 --> 02:32:25,359
in that transition because when one
person leaves, you never know what

1142
02:32:22,720 --> 02:32:29,840
you're going to get. So, you are now
helping us through two. We're very glad

1143
02:32:27,920 --> 02:32:33,760
that Fuse is here. I think it's going to
be a great addition to the city. But,

1144
02:32:31,920 --> 02:32:41,600
thank you very much for all that you've
done for the staff. We love you.

1145
02:32:38,319 --> 02:32:48,479
and I will close us out. Um, Bev, thank
you. Uh, probably one of the hats I will

1146
02:32:45,520 --> 02:32:54,000
miss the least is the uh, mayor and city
manager hat. Um, many of you not know

1147
02:32:51,280 --> 02:32:59,520
this, but Bev and I have many hats in
our discussions throughout the day. Uh,

1148
02:32:56,399 --> 02:33:04,479
we have mom son hat, we have Brian and
Bev hat, we have city manager and mayor

1149
02:33:02,319 --> 02:33:09,359
hat, and probably a few others. And I
jokingly say that because I don't know

1150
02:33:07,760 --> 02:33:13,280
if I would be the mayor I am today if it
wouldn't have been for your guidance.

1151
02:33:11,200 --> 02:33:17,760
And I know we joke a lot that I didn't
take your advice. Uh I know that so I'm

1152
02:33:16,399 --> 02:33:23,600
basically blaming her for all the
videos. I'm basically blaming her for

1153
02:33:20,479 --> 02:33:30,319
all the posts. Basically every speech
written uh is Beth Dibbons. Uh I will be

1154
02:33:27,439 --> 02:33:35,680
happy to give her personal email out. On
a serious note, you have been a solid

1155
02:33:34,160 --> 02:33:42,240
person in my corner and I appreciate
that very much. Um, also with that said,

1156
02:33:40,720 --> 02:33:46,000
Fabric,
welcome to the city of Mlennon Chisum. I

1157
02:33:44,560 --> 02:33:51,600
look forward to working with you. I've
already had a few sit downs and talks

1158
02:33:48,160 --> 02:33:55,760
with you. Uh I know you have time set to
meet with the council members and I can

1159
02:33:53,359 --> 02:33:59,359
only assure them that they are about to
be super impressed uh with the visions

1160
02:33:58,319 --> 02:34:04,560
and the things that you're going to
bring to the city and I am looking very

1161
02:34:01,359 --> 02:34:12,160
forward to working with you. And lastly,
my next ask is our next council meeting

1162
02:34:07,200 --> 02:34:17,120
is October 14th. Okay. Um that's Charlie
Kirk's birthday and I would ask us to

1163
02:34:13,680 --> 02:34:22,160
all be in red.
So, if we can all wear red on October

1164
02:34:19,280 --> 02:34:25,760
14th, I would appreciate that, council.
Uh, I'll leave that up to you. If you

1165
02:34:23,760 --> 02:34:29,760
want to wear a red freedom shirt or
however you want to do that, uh, staff,

1166
02:34:28,160 --> 02:34:34,240
I would ask y'all to do the same in
that.

1167
02:34:31,280 --> 02:34:39,840
And also, there is a meeting scheduled
for council on in November that is going

1168
02:34:37,680 --> 02:34:43,280
to be November 11th. That is Veterans
Day. I will be cancelling that and I

1169
02:34:41,760 --> 02:34:48,880
will be calling a special meeting for
November 18th. Uh I will not hold a

1170
02:34:46,080 --> 02:34:55,120
council meeting on Veterans Day
um because we will be honoring veterans

1171
02:34:50,960 --> 02:34:59,280
that evening uh with a sunset um event
and I will not dishonor uh veterans by

1172
02:34:58,000 --> 02:35:05,359
holding a council meeting when we need
to be honoring them. So please know that

1173
02:35:01,680 --> 02:35:10,080
I will cancel November 11th and I will
move us to November 18th. So council, if

1174
02:35:08,000 --> 02:35:13,120
y'all can make yourselves aware, staff
Angela, you need to know that for

1175
02:35:11,520 --> 02:35:17,600
posting purposes with the new law
changes. And with that, it is 8:5. Oh,

1176
02:35:16,640 --> 02:35:21,920
go ahead.
>> I do want to let our audience know that

1177
02:35:19,840 --> 02:35:28,000
uh we have the extreme green event this
Saturday from 8 to noon.

1178
02:35:24,960 --> 02:35:32,240
So, there's an opportunity for you.
>> Extreme. There's a social media post

1179
02:35:30,640 --> 02:35:35,520

accepting. So, please take a look at

1180
02:35:34,000 --> 02:35:38,960
that so that you don't bring something
that they can't accept. And they are

1181
02:35:37,280 --> 02:35:47,880
