[3:01] They have a refrigerator underneath the

[3:04] sink.

[3:07] » Rodney, maybe to get it over to where

[3:08] you can.

[3:11] » I know you're trying to connect

[3:16] >> Clean up

[3:16] >> Yeah, that's what we figured. The city

[3:18] that needs

[3:19] >> That's what we figured, yeah.

[3:23] » You're allowed to find out.

[3:38] » Yeah, I don't know, I don't know.

[3:39] >> But

[3:40] >> It's still

[3:42] » Yeah.

[3:43] >> Did this hurt?

[3:45] >> That's not anything maybe without

[3:46] people.

[3:47] >> This shirt.

[3:48] >> But yeah, this hurt, too.

[3:50] >> This shirt.

[3:53] >> There's a lot of

[3:54] >> Yeah, I mean I was yelling at Brianna.

[4:02] » Oh, yeah.

[4:04] >> We're going to profile so you can

[4:06] actually slide the beers under.

[4:11] » Um it's in the fridge underneath.

[4:13] >> Is it?

[4:21] Oh, yeah.

[4:22] Okay, make sure we're pushing it down.

[4:24] >> Yeah.

[4:27] » Sorry.

[4:28] Yeah, the drinks are

[4:33] There are drinks in there like in that

[4:35] bottom cabinet and we put a mini fridge

[4:37] in there that has soda and water and

[4:38] stuff in the

[4:40] >> Thanks for

[4:41] >> Yeah, no problem.

[4:45] Oh, I'm on the wrong link.

[4:52] Um I don't know. That's right. I have

[4:53] 88.

[4:55] >> Oh, no, no. It's still

[5:05] You don't fit everybody on council one

[5:06] of these twice a week.

[5:07] >> Yes.

[5:08] >> Yeah, everybody's got one.

[5:09] >> Yeah, I'm talking about 88 now.

[5:18] Yeah, okay. I get what you're saying. I

[5:20] thought you were saying

[5:22] >> Mine's what?

[5:23] When you're doing the bingo night.

[5:25] >> That's

[5:31] I know. That's what I was saying. I

[5:32] can't remember.

[5:34] » The bingo?

[5:36] >> When is the bingo?

[5:37] >> The the 14th of November.

[5:40] >> All right.

[5:44] » November 14th.

[5:48] » November 27th.

[5:50] >> Here we go.

[5:51] >> Obviously, everybody's going to

[5:53] naturally absorb the burden.

[5:58] » I'm going to I'm going to stay.

[6:00] >> Are you ready? Everybody gets everybody

[6:02] first in the county.

[6:06] >> 27, you're good. We're all good.

[6:09] >> Let's see.

[6:12] » [laughter]

[6:14] >> Sorry.

[6:15] >> Okay, so go ahead and call the meeting

[6:16] to order.

[6:16] >> I love that.

[6:19] » Uh Monday, August 20th for

[6:22] Sheridan City Council work session to

[6:25] further uh 1809 or 1609.

[6:33] All members are present.

[6:35] Uh we have the proposed budget for 2027.

[6:40] I take it that's you, Gavin.

[6:41] >> Thank you, Mayor.

[6:43] Um and before we jump into what you have

[6:45] in your packet,

[6:48] do we need to do our roll yes?

[6:50] >> I forgot. Sorry, sweetheart.

[6:53] >> No worries. Hi, everybody. I'm Andrea

[6:55] with the Community Language Cooperative.

[6:57] We're going to practice language

[6:58] justice. And um in a couple of seconds,

[7:02] we're going to start the interpretation.

[7:03] I just want to remind everybody who is

[7:05] in the room to please speak at a

[7:07] conversational pace and try to be close

[7:09] to the microphone so that we can hear

[7:11] you super good over here on Zoom.

[7:14] And how is we can start interpretation

[7:44] now?

[7:45] >> Thank you very much.

[7:47] We have called the meeting to order

[7:49] at

[7:50] 6:09 p.m. or

[7:52] 18

[7:54] 09.

[7:55] Um, Devin is our first with the 2027

[7:58] proposed bus

[7:59] >> Thanks, mayor.

[8:01] Before we jump into that, I just want to

[8:02] touch on really quick this handout I

[8:04] gave to you guys. So, I got this from

[8:08] South Suburban.

[8:09] They met with all of the city managers

[8:11] from the various cities that they

[8:13] service. And this is a breakdown of

[8:15] their what they're proposing in their

[8:17] capital improvement

[8:19] budget. So, I figured since we're

[8:20] talking capital

[8:22] improvements for our budget, we just

[8:23] touch on this one and just to show you

[8:25] on the parks and rec side what's coming

[8:27] in or what's budgeted to come in through

[8:29] the city for 20 for the 2027

[8:33] budget. So, I

[8:36] if

[8:37] what I'll just say is it we totaled a

[8:40] little over $6 million. We have a number

[8:43] of Bear Creek Trail

[8:46] expenses in here. This is nothing that

[8:48] you guys haven't known about on the Bear

[8:50] Creek Trail side of things. It's all the

[8:51] things that we've been talking

[8:53] about.

[8:55] The Mary Carter Greenway Trail widening,

[8:58] that's

[8:59] their match in the project that staff

[9:03] has talked about with council previously

[9:05] for the the trail underneath

[9:09] Hampton and US 285.

[9:11] You can see on Sheridan Community Park

[9:15] that they're looking at replacing some

[9:16] of the playground and shade pavilion

[9:18] restroom there, so that'll be nice.

[9:20] On the rec center, they are looking at

[9:23] primarily roof replacement, I think.

[9:26] Maybe didn't Yeah, roof and H vac to

[9:30] make

[9:32] it more comfortable in the gym for the

[9:34] AC there. And then there's also some

[9:38] preliminary uh design work going in.

[9:41] That's that last budget item. That would

[9:43] be to look at preliminary design for

[9:45] improvements that might be included in a

[9:47] future bond measure question.

[9:49] So.

[9:51] Uh pretty good outlay of funds that

[9:53] they've got coming in to the city in the

[9:55] moment.

[9:55] >> That's what they're putting into it.

[9:57] >> On

[9:59] 2027?

[10:01] Yeah, that would be for

[10:02] um my understanding on this and I can

[10:04] get more info for you if you need, but

[10:06] they would be putting in um or they'd be

[10:09] putting forth $300,000. This is for

[10:11] design work.

[10:13] And so they're looking at Buck, Goodson,

[10:15] Lone Tree, Sheridan and Rec Center. All

[10:18] of their Rec Centers for what might they

[10:20] need or what do they want to possibly go

[10:22] to the voters for in a bond question

[10:25] that would be in 2028

[10:28] when they would go to the bond question.

[10:30] So, um

[10:31] spending some money to kind of go

[10:33] through design and say

[10:34] "Okay, these are the level of

[10:35] improvements you like to see might like

[10:37] to see at these various Rec Centers."

[10:39] You got to spend some money up front to

[10:40] figure out, "Okay, do some preliminary

[10:42] design so you know how much money to ask

[10:44] for if you're going to go on a bond

[10:45] question.

[10:46] >> So, is this a lump of money that's given

[10:48] to everyone or are they given to

[10:49] different for the different situations

[10:52] for each city?

[10:53] >> Um yeah, no. This is just a breakdown by

[10:55] city. They don't go "Oh, city Sheridan

[10:57] gets this much and then they go spend

[10:59] it." And Lone Tree gets this much and

[11:00] then they go spend. They look at their

[11:02] district as a whole.

[11:03] >> Right.

[11:04] >> And they plan their facilities

[11:05] accordingly. And then this is just a

[11:07] breakdown that they did for us so we

[11:09] could see what's being spent and what's

[11:11] being budgeted to be spent in Sheridan.

[11:14] >> And they're going to have our money. Oh,

[11:15] so they don't have our money to be

[11:17] spent. That's just how much it's going

[11:20] to cost for those.

[11:21] >> Well, they have the They'll be spending

[11:23] this $6 million.

[11:24] >> Yeah, that's what I was going to ask. Is

[11:25] that approved through 5 voters or

[11:28] >> No, no, no, no. Okay. So, all of this

[11:30] money's going to get spent next year.

[11:32] >> Okay.

[11:33] >> All of this money is what they're saying

[11:35] in their proposed budget. The 300,000,

[11:37] that last line item there, is what

[11:39] they're spending to do some design work

[11:41] to figure out, okay, what do we want to

[11:43] ask for the next year, 2028, if we go

[11:47] for a bond measure that says, okay,

[11:50] they're going to do this level of

[11:52] improvements to Sheridan Rec Center,

[11:53] whatever in the bond question. But they

[11:55] got to spend a little bit up front to do

[11:57] some design work to figure out, what do

[11:59] we want to

[12:00] >> Okay.

[12:00] >> How much do we need to ask for?

[12:02] >> 80 million?

[12:03] >> Oh, 300,000.

[12:04] >> Right. That's all design work to look at

[12:08] all their Rec Centers and figure out,

[12:10] okay,

[12:11] what are what level of improvements or

[12:12] what improvements are they recommending

[12:14] to make at those Rec Centers.

[12:16] >> But they are going to replace the roofs

[12:18] on the roof.

[12:18] >> Yes, that's happening next year. If it

[12:21] hasn't started already.

[12:24] >> South Suburban is that 2 million bucks

[12:26] at the Sheridan?

[12:27] >> Yes.

[12:28] >> Yeah, that's great.

[12:30] Yeah, it's not It's a pretty good start,

[12:32] though.

[12:32] >> It's a pretty good capital outlay right

[12:33] now.

[12:34] >> Yeah.

[12:34] I like that a lot.

[12:36] >> Um and if we need more info on any of

[12:39] these, I they'd be happy to come in and

[12:41] review some of this and kind of talk

[12:42] about it.

[12:44] Just wanted you guys to be aware, and I

[12:45] thought tonight would be a good night to

[12:46] do it cuz we're talking about capital.

[12:48] So, let's talk about our capital money.

[12:50] Um

[12:51] >> Figure out what Anthony said. It's a

[12:52] good idea if it's the right price.

[12:54] >> Yeah. It always is. And and and you

[12:57] know, that is a very positive step

[12:59] forward because a couple years ago they

[13:01] weren't ready to do that at all.

[13:03] >> It's awesome.

[13:03] >> Yeah.

[13:04] So, that's good It's It's a a good good

[13:07] faith um I think expenditure on behalf

[13:09] of South Suburban.

[13:10] >> So, this is this is their plan for what

[13:12] they're funding for next year, and then

[13:15] out of

[13:17] the design pieces, like for the Rec

[13:19] Center,

[13:21] >> That would inform a potential ballot

[13:22] question.

[13:23] >> That would be what would inform the

[13:25] flight. Replacement of showers and that

[13:28] kind of thing.

[13:29] >> Yes. So, you're going to have design

[13:31] professionals walk through there and go,

[13:33] "All right, if you want to do this, we

[13:34] know it's going to cost this much." So,

[13:36] you got to pay all those guys to go

[13:37] through and come up with the whole plan

[13:38] about, "All right, if you're going to

[13:40] have to go for a

[13:41] If you're going to go for a bond

[13:42] measure, this is what you need to ask

[13:44] for."

[13:45] Okay.

[13:46] Um

[13:48] Moving to our capital, I think I'm going

[13:50] to turn it over to Teresa, but I will

[13:52] just touch on one thing real quick. Um

[13:56] I uh excused Jeremiah from tonight. They

[13:59] have a family emergency.

[14:01] Um his mom's not doing well. They have

[14:03] family flying in. So, that just stays

[14:06] here. I don't feel good being public.

[14:07] That's not public knowledge.

[14:09] Uh but just to let you know I did it.

[14:11] So, I'm going to Between Teresa and I,

[14:13] we'll try and cover. Uh he did a very

[14:15] good memo in here that outlines the

[14:18] expenditures and all that. But,

[14:20] hopefully if if you have questions that

[14:22] either Teresa or I can't answer, I'll

[14:24] get you the answers, you know, when

[14:25] Jeremiah's available. So, okay.

[14:28] >> Thank you.

[14:28] >> You bet. Teresa, do you want to touch on

[14:30] revenues, please?

[14:32] >> You bet. So, um there are basically two

[14:35] sources of revenue for the capital fund.

[14:37] Um every year um in December, the SRA

[14:42] um distributes um

[14:45] a portion based on a calculation a

[14:46] portion of the PIF to the city. And it

[14:50] was voted upon that 50% of that every

[14:52] year has to go to is dedicated to

[14:55] streets and infrastructure structure.

[14:58] So, we have budgeted 614,178

[15:02] to be received in 2027.

[15:05] And then the other is it's just funded

[15:07] from the general fund. So, that always pays for everything for public

[15:11] works,

[15:12] um for the um the police department, um

[15:16] if we have any servers that we need.

[15:19] Basically, anything that general fund

[15:21] would pay for it, that. And we have

[15:23] budgeted next year for 748,601.

[15:30] So, that's the two sources of revenue.

[15:33] Um

[15:37] If you I'm going to have a skip it down

[15:39] a few pages. If you go to page

[15:42] 10.

[15:43] >> [laughter]

[15:50] » Yeah, so we're going down to the bottom

[15:52] of of

[15:54] Yeah, one more page. Sorry, Jenna.

[15:58] >> All right.

[15:59] So, basically what I'm

[16:00] looking at is in that bottom right-hand

[16:02] corner, our components of fund balance

[16:06] where you can see that um we have three

[16:10] bill basically all of our fund balance,

[16:13] the 3,537,28

[16:16] is from the 2A revenues that we have

[16:18] collected.

[16:19] Um

[16:20] but we also know that, you know, that it

[16:23] will help, but it's never going to be

[16:25] quite enough for what we're going to

[16:27] need for our streets and infrastructure

[16:29] needs. But just to let you know, that is

[16:31] all 2A revenues that have to be

[16:33] dedicated to streets and infrastructure.

[16:36] So, I am sorry I skipped kind of down.

[16:38] Um so, as far as going back up um

[16:41] on the capital side, um

[16:51] Did you have any question I I don't think I can answer really

[16:56] anything on the public works budget, but

[16:57] did you have any questions on that or on

[16:59] the public safety um requests that were

[17:02] put in?

[17:04] >> Well, yeah. Let me if you don't mind,

[17:05] Teresa, I'll walk through really quick

[17:08] on the public

[17:09] and then the chief's here in case

[17:10] council has any questions about the um

[17:13] public safety capital budget.

[17:16] Um but as you're looking at at

[17:18] Jeremiah's memo, um um, this one right

[17:20] here, the 2027 Capital Public Works

[17:22] Budget.

[17:24] Uh, pretty basic things we got going on

[17:25] here. The first one is the pavement

[17:27] maintenance and repair program. That's

[17:28] what we That's our main outlay every

[17:30] year for fixing the streets. All right?

[17:33] That's what we use this for. It's fixing

[17:35] the streets. So, you can see

[17:38] um, we're looking at a proposal of

[17:40] 725,000

[17:43] uh, for next year. But, the vast

[17:46] more most of that is doing asphalt

[17:47] overlay work. Okay?

[17:51] Uh, and then doing a good amount of chip

[17:53] seal, slurry seal, cape seal at

[17:55] $180,000.

[17:56] And then we also have some miscellaneous

[17:58] parking uh, or uh, pavement marking,

[18:01] some concrete repairs. This is where we

[18:03] do put money in for when we have uh,

[18:06] concrete repairs, which is primarily

[18:08] sidewalks. We're doing that. Um, we do

[18:11] especially in hot summers like we have

[18:13] now, we see them buckle up. And so,

[18:16] you'll have them buckle. So, any extreme

[18:18] temperatures, you've got a lot of hot temperatures now. Um, and then if we

[18:22] get that followed up with some cold

[18:23] temperatures, we just find areas where

[18:25] it buckles and cracks. And so,

[18:27] um, we generally stick around 50 to

[18:30] 75,000 or even 100,000 into this budget.

[18:33] We look at that every year.

[18:35] Um, so that's reflected in here as well.

[18:38] Uh, kind of unusual is the Union Pacific

[18:40] Crossing, the next item that we have in

[18:42] there at $250,000.

[18:44] So, this is as you guys are are probably

[18:46] aware, maybe new council members might

[18:48] or might not be as aware.

[18:50] Um, the the uh, Union Pacific Crossing

[18:55] uh, down at Oxford and um,

[18:59] well, it's kind of well, it's River

[19:00] Point Parkway and then that turns into

[19:03] What is it on the other side, Andrew?

[19:05] >> Zacherias.

[19:06] thank you. Sorry. Uh, brain

[19:08] dead there.

[19:09] Uh, but that being an intersection

[19:11] there,

[19:12] uh in working with the Public Utilities

[19:15] Commission and Union Pacific to do uh

[19:19] crossing improvements. So, since it

[19:21] involves the railroad property, there's

[19:23] it is very very very difficult, very

[19:28] complicated. Takes years and years. And they're almost almost almost

[19:33] there.

[19:34] So, I yeah.

[19:37] Um I think in Jeremiah's memo he

[19:38] mentions that we're waiting on

[19:42] um

[19:43] the S&P's.

[19:44] >> Yeah. Basically, we were getting I think

[19:46] luckily something I specialized in, so

[19:47] it's going to be kind of nice I think

[19:49] for Jeremiah. Um and so we redid the

[19:51] application, had PUC or

[19:54] look at it, you know, they did kind of

[19:55] preliminary look to make sure you fill

[19:57] the boxes, right? Had a couple things

[19:59] that needed to be tuned up, and we were

[20:00] sending that back to the engineers, the

[20:02] consulting engineers, and we'll should

[20:04] be submitting the application

[20:07] relatively soon, I think. And that

[20:08] usually

[20:09] um about a 60-day process if it's on a

[20:11] post to get an approval from the PUC.

[20:14] And then for UP's schedule approval,

[20:16] it's usually about a year.

[20:17] >> Okay.

[20:18] >> So,

[20:18] >> Okay.

[20:20] >> Didn't all of those kind of start back

[20:22] when

[20:23] Jeff Cruiser went in the whole

[20:25] >> No, not really.

[20:27] >> After that?

[20:28] >> No,

[20:29] it's always it's always been more of the

[20:31] crossing, the crossing over the tracks.

[20:35] Yeah. You know, it definitely has some

[20:37] grade issues and some things like that,

[20:39] but that wasn't really affected by any

[20:41] of the

[20:42] um storm water.

[20:43] >> No, the work

[20:45] to start having with a

[20:48] railroad

[20:50] started about that.

[20:51] >> About that time. It was it was yeah, it

[20:53] was it was it's been going for years.

[20:56] Yeah, to try and get this addressed.

[20:58] Yes.

[20:59] Um yes, ma'am. So, it's been a long long

[21:02] road.

[21:03] Yep.

[21:03] Um if you go on the next page of the

[21:06] memo or just paging down, police

[21:08] department locker rooms. Got $50,000 in

[21:11] here. This is really just to help wrap

[21:13] up the project and any miscellaneous

[21:15] items that we have going into next year.

[21:17] This year,

[21:19] we will be doing the majority of the

[21:21] work and we just wanted to put in some

[21:24] extra funds as a placeholder in there in

[21:25] case we needed any additional work that

[21:29] would needed to be billed into next

[21:30] year.

[21:33] Building remodel, we're putting $15,000

[21:36] in there. And mainly what I want to do

[21:38] with this money is to do a space

[21:40] analysis. So, have a

[21:43] building engineer, somebody that come in

[21:45] and knows how to look at

[21:47] building space and interiors and figure

[21:50] out, okay,

[21:51] give us some options on how we can most

[21:54] efficiently use the space that we have.

[21:57] So, including the new Willamette Villa

[21:59] property, including and looking at

[22:02] general government, at the old fire

[22:04] department space where the detectives

[22:06] are in.

[22:08] I think PD's pretty well squared away,

[22:09] but we'll have them look, you know, and

[22:11] if they have any suggestions

[22:14] how can we

[22:15] have a optimal use of space? Because we

[22:17] are

[22:19] um

[22:20] uh and have been for a little while a

[22:21] little bit, I feel not using our space

[22:24] as well as we could. I could be using it

[22:26] better. So, having somebody come in and

[22:28] give us some design options on how the

[22:30] best we can use the space that we have.

[22:34] Uh

[22:35] city grounds upgrades, $40,000. That's

[22:37] looking at improvements and this is kind

[22:39] of what we talked about. Directly came

[22:41] from the goal setting session. Looking

[22:43] around the outside of the building here,

[22:44] how can we activate the grounds and use

[22:47] a better job with that?

[22:49] The restroom remodel, our restrooms do

[22:51] need to be addressed here in city hall.

[22:53] They're old.

[22:55] Uh they need to be upgraded.

[22:57] The

[22:58] uh they just they need a little love and

[23:01] tenderness, so uh we're budgeted $20,000

[23:04] to look at doing that.

[23:06] Uh entryway signage, we talked about

[23:09] that at goal setting, too. Remember some

[23:10] of the crummy old signage that we have

[23:12] around here? So, budgeted money into do

[23:15] that.

[23:15] >> Nice.

[23:16] >> And then vehicles and equipment,

[23:18] $80,000.

[23:20] Um

[23:20] I'm trying to remember what

[23:23] he had in here. Do you remember

[23:25] specifics on this, Teresa? Cuz I don't.

[23:29] >> I think wasn't there something about Was

[23:32] it He was looking at like something like

[23:35] an

[23:35] F-650, but that wasn't being made

[23:38] anymore, so

[23:41] or something

[23:42] >> I apologize. I can't remember the

[23:43] details on this one.

[23:45] I know

[23:46] we're looking at doing away with

[23:49] larger

[23:52] um

[23:53] uh

[23:55] larger plow trucks that you need a CDL

[23:57] to operate and bringing them down in

[24:00] like maybe a a 350 or larger or pickup

[24:03] and put things because we can do a lot

[24:05] of the work using those and and not have

[24:09] to have a very expensive plow truck that you

[24:12] have to have a CDL to do.

[24:14] They're now we still will have I think

[24:15] one plow truck, one or two, but

[24:19] augmenting that with

[24:21] um with some equipment file equipment

[24:24] that doesn't require a CDL. And that's

[24:26] where I need Jeremiah to go into the

[24:28] specifics. I don't remember exactly the

[24:30] specifics. But look again, his idea was

[24:33] being able to utilize

[24:36] um

[24:36] looking at at different equipment and

[24:39] being able to utilize it not only for

[24:41] summer needs, but we can put a plow onto

[24:44] the top of it onto the front of it, use

[24:46] it and plow what we need to in winter.

[24:47] We don't have to have employees that

[24:49] have CDLs to use those. And they're

[24:51] cheaper. Plow trucks are very expensive.

[24:55] Um

[24:56] >> But we'd still keep our We

[24:58] keep room for the larger space.

[25:00] >> Um

[25:01] Oh, we would still have some larger Yes.

[25:04] Yeah.

[25:04] >> So like Oxford

[25:07] >> Yeah, there'd just be the

[25:09] There'd be smaller stuff that we could

[25:11] do things with or depending on the

[25:13] volume of the snow, do we need to have

[25:15] >> Right.

[25:16] >> Gives us a little bit more flexibility.

[25:18] Um yeah. And when we get into final last

[25:22] year, I might be able to give you some

[25:22] more info on that one. I can't just

[25:24] can't remember off the top of my head,

[25:26] yeah.

[25:27] Uh anything else on public works agenda

[25:31] or agenda Teresa in your notes that I

[25:35] missed?

[25:36] >> No, I didn't have anything else.

[25:38] >> Okay.

[25:40] Um

[25:41] does council have any questions about

[25:43] any of the public works items or

[25:45] anything?

[25:46] >> Yeah, mostly just about that roads one,

[25:48] you know, our 725 if that's going to be

[25:50] enough to

[25:52] keep our streets in good shape and keep

[25:53] us out of the weeds, you know, for a

[25:55] good long time like and and making sure

[25:57] that we have a good plan, you know, to

[25:59] keep heading in that direction as far as

[26:00] like avoiding more bond measures or so.

[26:03] >> It's a great point.

[26:05] Bluntly, no.

[26:07] >> Do we need to think about more cuz

[26:09] >> Well, that's that's one of the reasons

[26:11] why we're looking at a sales tax.

[26:14] And and looking at how do we generate

[26:16] some additional revenue?

[26:18] >> For public safety?

[26:19] If we can do that for

[26:21] public safety, we can take the money

[26:22] that would have been there and we can

[26:24] move that and you could use them here.

[26:26] So, you know, that's one of the rationales for looking

[26:31] at that.

[26:32] Um but No, does it Are we currently is

[26:37] this what we need to be doing every year

[26:39] to make sure that we're to No, it falls

[26:41] short.

[26:42] We need to be doing more.

[26:44] >> What's Jeremiah's actual number, yeah?

[26:46] >> Who?

[26:47] >> What what what Jeremiah's actual

[26:49] >> Um yeah, it would be a lot more.

[26:52] Probably almost be double that.

[26:54] >> Well, yeah, we're going to have to use

[26:56] our sales tax increase, so that's our

[26:58] angle and we're looking good on it.

[26:59] >> Yeah, well, if we look at plugging this

[27:02] out 10 years, which is what you would

[27:04] want to do, it falls short of where we

[27:06] would want to be. So, that's the reason

[27:08] that we are looking at

[27:11] all, you know, augmenting our revenue

[27:13] sources and how that come in.

[27:16] If that doesn't pan out, we might need

[27:18] to look at something else.

[27:20] >> So, uh

[27:21] I like what they did last year, you

[27:23] know, they did the same crap the same

[27:25] kind of thing last year.

[27:26] >> Mhm.

[27:27] >> I don't even think they spent that much

[27:28] that they bought.

[27:29] >> I don't think we spent quite this much

[27:31] last year. I can't recall and I don't

[27:33] know, Chris, if you remember where we

[27:35] were on 20 or it's probably in the uh

[27:39] in the spreadsheet, I just don't have

[27:40] that in front of me.

[27:41] >> The sales were family or that's what

[27:44] that one's, right?

[27:45] >> Uh

[27:46] >> They call it

[27:47] >> They had about 500.

[27:49] >> Was it about 500?

[27:50] >> Yeah, that's right.

[27:51] >> The record was right.

[27:53] >> Yeah.

[27:55] I'm trying to grab it right now and I

[27:56] can't, but that sounds right, right

[27:57] around 500 or so. Yeah. So, we're trying

[28:00] to put We're absolutely trying to put

[28:03] more in and keep up as we can.

[28:06] Yeah.

[28:07] Okay.

[28:07] >> Is storm water anywhere here?

[28:10] >> Oh, we'll get in there.

[28:11] Oh, yeah. And and

[28:13] No, this looks good compared to some of

[28:15] our Yeah.

[28:17] Okay.

[28:18] Uh how about we move on to our public

[28:21] safety uh capital budget request and

[28:24] Chief, do you want to highlight any of

[28:26] the stuff that you got in there and and

[28:28] then we can ask if Council has any

[28:30] questions?

[28:30] >> Sure, I can just go over it, if that's

[28:32] okay.

[28:33] Um so, the first request that we have is

[28:35] for um police vehicles. It's important

[28:37] to keep our fleet up and running and

[28:39] um replace older units that uh end up

[28:41] costing more to maintain them. So, this

[28:44] year we're asking for two police

[28:45] vehicles. One will be for our patrol,

[28:47] one will be for our agent administrative

[28:50] vehicles. Um and the vehicles are

[28:53] expensive, of course, but then

[28:54] outfitting them with all the necessary

[28:55] lights, sirens, etc. gets expensive. But

[28:58] total for two of them would be $180,000.

[29:02] Um it would be higher if it was two

[29:03] patrol vehicles, but the admin vehicle

[29:05] won't require as much, so it um

[29:09] comes down a little bit. So, 180,000 is

[29:12] the ask for the vehicles.

[29:14] Um body worn cameras, we've talked about

[29:16] that. Um

[29:17] we entered into a contract with Axon 5

[29:19] years ago. It's a You can pay it all up

[29:21] front or you can pay it via over 5

[29:24] years. So, we looked at doing that again

[29:25] with Axon. Did look at um other

[29:28] competitors that have come into the

[29:30] market. Um Axon is a much superior

[29:33] product. Our district attorneys actually

[29:35] prefer Axon, but if we would have found

[29:37] something that would have been

[29:39] uh maybe less expensive, that gave us

[29:41] everything that we needed and some, we

[29:44] would have went with them, but Axon uh

[29:45] won that battle. Even their price ended

[29:47] up being lower than the major

[29:49] competitor, which was Motorola. Um so, I

[29:53] really worked with on them and uh

[29:55] prodded them with uh some of the

[29:57] different things that we wanted, and we

[29:58] were able to get some things that we did

[30:01] have last time, which should help. Some

[30:02] of that is video redaction. We're

[30:04] getting a lot of requests for redaction

[30:06] of videos, so there are there's new

[30:08] process to help with that. Um of course,

[30:10] we still have our storage, which can be

[30:12] very expensive. Um

[30:14] and just a couple of other things that

[30:16] have helped with that, but they kept the

[30:18] price um

[30:20] relatively uh it was better than the

[30:22] other one. The other one was about

[30:23] $199,000. They didn't give us as much.

[30:26] So, this one would be $185,000,

[30:28] but if we spread that over out over 5

[30:30] years, which is the way I believe we're

[30:31] going to do it, that's a cost of $29,477

[30:35] per year. And it's just important to

[30:37] remember body worn cameras are required

[30:39] by law, so we do have to um get some

[30:41] type of camera and our current cameras

[30:45] even if we kept them we still have to

[30:46] pay for the same services etc. And those

[30:49] cameras are batteries are going dead

[30:51] etc. So this is a good option for us.

[30:55] The next thing that we have is uh

[30:58] our less lethal. One of the most

[31:00] important less lethal options we have is

[31:02] taser. The [snorts] taser is you know of

[31:05] course a way to stop someone that is

[31:07] being combative or in the case of like

[31:09] even if you look at the incident on the

[31:11] Bear Creek Trail where the guy was with

[31:13] a machete and we tried to stop him first

[31:16] with the taser product that we have.

[31:18] Those tasers are over 20 years old.

[31:22] There's newer and better technology

[31:23] that's out. The one that we would be

[31:25] getting and that we're asking for is

[31:26] called the taser 10. That has 10

[31:29] separate

[31:30] taser probes that can be shot. So in a

[31:32] case like on

[31:34] we had somebody with a knife that on the

[31:36] trail again or something similar we

[31:38] could have one person's weapon was fired

[31:41] 10 different times trying to get next to

[31:43] me to stop that person. So that is a

[31:46] much better technology and keep our

[31:49] officers and our community safer.

[31:52] So it's beyond time that we ask for

[31:53] that.

[31:55] contract to get every one of our

[31:57] officers set up with that is $185,619.

[32:02] That also can be spread out over 5 years

[32:04] so it's what we're planning on doing for

[32:06] a cost of $37,124

[32:09] per year. And that's something that is

[32:11] not absolutely required by law but if

[32:13] you didn't have it and we didn't use

[32:14] that

[32:16] there could be a lot more liability on

[32:17] the city. So it is time that we

[32:20] definitely look at upgrading those and

[32:22] being that we were doing both contracts

[32:24] because of both Axon products it helped

[32:27] us

[32:28] get a little bit better deal on both

[32:31] body worn cameras and the tasers tasers

[32:33] if we were just doing one. So

[32:35] those are two biggest requests. Again,

[32:39] stretching them out over 5 years helps.

[32:42] And then the other request that we have

[32:44] is the ballistic shields. We have four

[32:46] of them. Those are used in um

[32:48] high-stress situations where somebody

[32:50] may have a firearm and we do our best to

[32:52] approach them and keep the officers safe

[32:54] using ballistic shield.

[32:56] Those um have a warranty expiration date

[32:59] on them. Two of ours are expired, so

[33:01] we're down to two. We'd like to have one

[33:03] in each of the patrol vehicles for the

[33:05] sergeants. Um so we're asking to replace

[33:07] those. Those are a cost of approximately

[33:09] $7,000 apiece. So for two of them, that

[33:12] would be $14,000.

[33:15] And then the other uh request that we're

[33:18] making is it goes back to our

[33:20] conversation we had last year about the

[33:22] cameras. We were looking at Flock

[33:23] cameras last year for um approximately

[33:26] six cameras for $18,000.

[33:29] We don't think we would go to Flock just

[33:30] because of some of the problems that um

[33:33] Flock has had and some of the things

[33:34] that um were the problems. They were

[33:37] sharing the information too widely and

[33:39] didn't have the scope to reel it in.

[33:42] Um but Axon also offers a camera um and

[33:45] we can look at others, but we have asked

[33:47] for $18,000 in case we decide that

[33:50] that's the way that we want to move

[33:51] forward. I know the cameras can be very

[33:53] controversial, but I I'm here to tell

[33:55] you they are very, very beneficial to us

[33:58] in preventing crime and solving crime.

[34:01] And I've used that um

[34:02] example plenty of times about the uh

[34:05] homicide that we had. Without those, we

[34:07] probably still wouldn't know who did

[34:08] that. Um but it's a very important tool

[34:11] and if we can get involved in the game

[34:13] with getting a few of the cameras, it

[34:15] would be very helpful. So

[34:17] >> And so just to be clear to council,

[34:18] we're not deciding we're going to buy

[34:20] Flock cameras tonight. We're just saying

[34:22] we're going to put money in the budget.

[34:24] If

[34:25] at some point next year we decide we've

[34:27] had a discussion and I want to have a

[34:29] discussion with council. I know you guys

[34:30] want to do it. We talked about that in

[34:31] goal setting. We'll have a discussion

[34:33] and we'll we'll educate ourselves on

[34:36] this and make, you know, get you all the

[34:37] information you guys need to have to

[34:39] make a good decision on that. Uh and the

[34:41] money will then be there if you decide

[34:43] that you want to move forward. If we

[34:45] don't, it just rolls over into fund

[34:47] balance, which is fine, too. So.

[34:49] >> Well, we already kind of agreed on it,

[34:50] last year.

[34:51] >> Mhm.

[34:52] >> We agreed to

[34:53] approve the budget for the 18 grand for

[34:56] the Flock cameras last year.

[34:58] >> Well, we had been looking

[35:00] at

[35:02] bringing a contract forward for council

[35:04] consideration

[35:06] of that. And in anticipation of that,

[35:08] we'd put some money It was very similar.

[35:09] We'd put some money in the budget and

[35:12] said, "Well, let's work up a contract

[35:14] and then have a discussion with council

[35:15] about what that looks like."

[35:17] And then that's when all holy hell broke

[35:20] loose on it.

[35:21] >> Yeah. There were laws that were being

[35:22] looked at and seeing if they were going

[35:24] to be available. We didn't want to enter

[35:26] into a contract and then find out that

[35:27] we bought cameras that you can't even

[35:29] use.

[35:29] >> Even the folks from Flock were saying,

[35:32] "We wouldn't even enter We're like

[35:33] They're like saying, 'No, you shouldn't

[35:36] enter shouldn't do this yet. You need to

[35:37] wait and see what happens.' So.

[35:39] >> Yeah.

[35:39] >> I I do have a question with Oh, sorry,

[35:42] Jay.

[35:43] >> Just real quick, is

[35:45] So, those three things together, is

[35:47] Flock going to send somebody out to do

[35:49] all the training on how to use

[35:50] >> It's most likely not going to be Flock.

[35:53] >> I thought it was Flock. I thought Flock,

[35:54] but I may

[35:55] >> Okay. Axon Axon Axon.

[35:57] As far as training for any of those?

[35:59] >> Yeah, I mean, it's a 10-shot taser.

[36:01] >> You think

[36:01] >> Yeah, we absolutely will get we

[36:03] absolutely will get retrained. We have

[36:05] to qualify with that taser every year

[36:07] anyway. So, this package contains all of

[36:09] the practice cartridges that we have. It

[36:12] also has a training simulator, which is

[36:14] something we've never had before. So, it

[36:16] will give us the opportunity to wear

[36:17] something like the AI glasses that you

[36:20] can be involved in, you know, like a a

[36:23] scenario and make commands. And if you

[36:25] need to use the taser, that you practice

[36:27] with that. So, there's also some other a

[36:29] new practical um parts that this helps

[36:32] with. So, training and then anything

[36:34] that we need as far as support and

[36:36] service and training, we will get. It

[36:38] also allows our um our officers, our

[36:41] trainers to go and get the training

[36:42] which they will use. So, yes, they're

[36:44] absolutely getting new training. new

[36:45] training. We will not issue the uh taser

[36:48] 10s until everyone receives the

[36:50] training. Whoever has not received the

[36:52] training will not get the taser 10 until

[36:55] they have uh tested with it and

[36:56] qualified to use it. So, absolutely.

[36:59] >> Do you still have to be tased to carry

[37:00] one or is that like

[37:02] >> There are some departments that do that.

[37:05] Um

[37:05] >> I have video of my son being tased.

[37:07] >> Yes, he should be.

[37:08] >> Remember when I got a call about tasing

[37:09] up in the park?

[37:10] >> Sometimes they ask for volunteers, so

[37:11] there's some involved.

[37:14] And but not every officer gets tased to

[37:17] Um

[37:19] wrap around the person.

[37:21] Yeah, that's called wrap technology.

[37:23] That's that's good for apprehending

[37:24] somebody that's running. Um cuz what

[37:26] it'll do is it'll tie It shoots out like

[37:29] a long string and it goes around and

[37:31] they're I don't know if it's made to

[37:32] >> Like string the person.

[37:33] >> You've seen the side.

[37:34] >> I've seen that. We've seen

[37:37] >> And I think they said that

[37:39] >> Yeah. But it it doesn't work the same as

[37:41] this um taser. Taser can be used on

[37:44] somebody who's aggressive, um won't

[37:46] stop.

[37:46] >> Right.

[37:47] >> Whereas the other one's made for someone

[37:49] who's fleeing.

[37:50] So, it's just another tool.

[37:52] Oh, yeah. We've used them often.

[37:54] Unfortunately,

[37:56] our our current tasers are not

[37:59] They're failing more often than they're

[38:00] working.

[38:01] >> You guys have issues with them?

[38:02] >> Yeah.

[38:03] >> They're old.

[38:04] >> They're well over well over 20 years

[38:06] old. So,

[38:08] >> I have a question, Chief.

[38:09] >> Yes.

[38:10] >> Um the admin vehicles, is that the

[38:12] commander vehicles?

[38:13] >> It could be a command vehicle. It could

[38:14] be one for our investigations unit. Um

[38:17] And our investigations unit's probably

[38:19] where it's going to go, but

[38:20] yeah.

[38:21] >> Well, so as far as the body cam, isn't doesn't Axon also do

[38:28] like a flock camera as well?

[38:31] So, my question

[38:32] >> that Axon does. Do cameras that are

[38:34] similar to flock cameras. That's what

[38:37] they first switched over. They had flock

[38:39] cameras. They switched to Axon cameras.

[38:42] >> So, now my my question would be a

[38:44] financial question.

[38:47] Would

[38:48] if once we have the discussion and we

[38:50] have to would they be able to whatever

[38:53] you've already ordered, add that to the

[38:55] order and you get a cheaper if

[38:58] >> We would We would We would remind them

[39:00] >> to two for one?

[39:01] >> We would remind them that we are

[39:03] customers with both their Tasers and

[39:05] their body worn cameras and use that as

[39:07] much leverage as we can.

[39:08] Um and they they know they're competing

[39:10] with, you know, the other people out

[39:12] there that are doing that. So,

[39:14] um

[39:15] I've seen where they'll just give

[39:17] somebody

[39:19] you know, they'll say, "This is how much

[39:20] it costs." And people accept it, they'll

[39:21] take it. In this particular case, on

[39:24] both of ours, we kept saying, "That's

[39:26] not going to work. That's not going to

[39:27] work." And we went um for instance, the

[39:29] last upgrade and everything that we got

[39:31] on our body worn cameras, they were

[39:33] asking for $67,000 more than we ended up

[39:36] getting it for, but I told them it's

[39:37] just not going to work. And

[39:39] >> What was the other one? Flock cameras.

[39:40] Yeah. There is a competitor out there.

[39:42] We're looking at them, etc. And they

[39:44] wanted to keep us. So, it was all

[39:46] legitimate. It was just saying to

[39:48] >> Yes.

[39:48] >> We could bundle.

[39:49] >> We bundled those two. And the cameras

[39:51] that the amount of cameras that we're

[39:52] talking about is is a small amount. So,

[39:55] uh yeah. So, what we would make sure

[39:57] that we do our best to do is make sure

[39:59] we compared it to what Flock was, which

[40:01] was 18,000 for six. So, that's about

[40:03] $3,000 camera.

[40:05] Um and that included the camera and you

[40:07] know, the upkeep, the maintenance. So, I

[40:09] don't know that there's a lot of um

[40:12] pushing that we can do in there, but

[40:13] we'll try to get at least six of them

[40:15] for that price. That's what my goal is.

[40:17] >> So, then as far as the recording and the um retrieval of those

[40:21] recordings, is it the same system that

[40:26] >> They use evidence. It's called

[40:27] evidence.com. And and I'm sure they tie

[40:30] in together. You can use the systems

[40:32] together. So that may save us some

[40:33] money, yes.

[40:34] >> Okay.

[40:36] >> Which

[40:37] >> Yeah, which vehicles needed replaced

[40:39] currently?

[40:40] >> One of our older vehicles, like the

[40:42] transmission was going out, we'd want to

[40:44] pay 7 grand to have the transmission

[40:46] replaced when we're going to be

[40:47] replacing it. So that was one of the

[40:49] older Fords. Um that's going to go out.

[40:52] And then uh one of the admin vehicles is

[40:55] starting is probably

[40:57] 9 years old and and it didn't get as

[41:00] much mileage, but it is getting older

[41:02] and we need to replace it.

[41:03] >> So I just want to thank you.

[41:04] >> Yeah. We try to be pretty proactive as

[41:06] you know on keeping those fleet uh all

[41:09] of our fleet, public safety, public

[41:11] works, keeping all of our fleet up to

[41:13] speed as much as we can rather than

[41:15] waiting until it breaks down. We we

[41:17] replace it before that. That way we get

[41:19] good auction value, we get good trade-in

[41:21] value, we get or we just don't run into

[41:23] the major huge problems and wait waiting

[41:25] until your fleet gets so old and uh then

[41:27] you're replacing things on an emergency

[41:29] basis and you're paying through the

[41:30] nose.

[41:31] >> Right.

[41:31] >> And that's the ghost vehicles we're

[41:32] using over at Target, putting out at

[41:35] Costco over there in River. We call it

[41:36] ghost vehicle because we park it there

[41:38] and there's nobody really in it, but we

[41:41] try to deter

[41:42] >> Mhm.

[41:43] >> You know, sometimes we do have people

[41:44] there, but sometimes we don't. So we use

[41:46] that vehicle. That vehicle that we were

[41:49] using there was the one people were

[41:50] there to get over there.

[41:52] >> It was it was going down.

[41:54] >> That was just one of the older vehicles

[41:55] that we were doing our best to But if we

[41:58] were to put that into regular service,

[41:59] that wouldn't have worked. It wouldn't

[42:00] be too unreliable. So

[42:03] >> Okay.

[42:04] Any other questions before we move on to

[42:06] our other funds for tonight? Okay. Um

[42:11] I'm going to let Teresa take over on

[42:13] this one primarily. We've got

[42:16] what I call our special revenue funds.

[42:18] So, it's open space conservation trust

[42:20] fund, storm water, debt service,

[42:23] volunteer fire pension, and Sheridan

[42:25] Celebrates, even though Sheridan

[42:26] Celebrates is general fund budget. But,

[42:28] most of these funds have a We call them

[42:31] special revenue funds cuz they have a

[42:32] dedicated revenue source for them. So,

[42:35] for example, the open space fund has

[42:38] funding that comes from the uh open

[42:40] space the the uh county's uh open space

[42:43] tax and get shared back with us. Um

[42:46] >> Mhm?

[42:47] >> Oh.

[42:48] Um you know, our conservation trust fund

[42:50] is uh lottery money that comes in from

[42:53] the state and we get a piece of it. So,

[42:54] it has special pieces of uh our special

[42:57] sources of revenue where the money comes

[42:59] from to these. So, Teresa?

[43:02] Take it away.

[43:02] >> All righty.

[43:04] So, um yeah, like Devin said, the

[43:06] everything that is kind of our special

[43:08] funds usually have a their own revenue

[43:11] source. So, open space fund, as you

[43:12] know, we get the annual share back from

[43:15] Arapahoe County. Um I've budgeted

[43:17] 235,597

[43:20] for that. Um the other items are we have

[43:24] the GOCO Inspire Grant, which that has

[43:26] been ongoing and we're going to continue

[43:28] with that. And then, the other items the

[43:31] other grant items were things that we

[43:33] had budgeted this year, but are getting

[43:35] moved to next year.

[43:37] And that's for the Mary Carter Greenway

[43:39] widening grant, the Bear Creek Trail

[43:42] widening, and the Bear Creek Trailhead.

[43:45] So, that's kind of money's coming in.

[43:47] And then, as you'll see, you're going to

[43:49] have the offsetting expenses for all

[43:51] those grants. So, you know, your GOCO

[43:52] Inspire, you know, um

[43:55] the federal project we're going to be

[43:56] working on that the 3600 South Federal,

[43:59] and then like we said, all the grants

[44:01] that we talked about up above, we're going to

[44:04] be having the expenses for those down

[44:06] below.

[44:08] Um, so we're just and I think whatever

[44:10] Devin gave you probably has

[44:12] from South Suburban probably had um some

[44:15] of that information in there as well.

[44:18] Yeah. So moving on to our

[44:19] >> one of those items are their match to

[44:21] these projects.

[44:23] >> Mhm.

[44:27] » The next budget that we're going to talk

[44:28] about is our conservation trust fund.

[44:31] Um, we from there we get quarterly right

[44:34] lottery revenue.

[44:35] Um, so that we've got that budget at

[44:37] 36598

[44:39] and then a small amount of interest

[44:41] coming in.

[44:42] Um, our conservation trust fund has a

[44:45] little bit stricter rules than open

[44:46] space.

[44:48] Um, so we usually tend to kind of

[44:50] collect that for a few years until we

[44:53] have a project that will fit well for

[44:54] that. So it pays for the ongoing

[44:56] maintenance of parks. Um, so that's

[44:59] where we're we've got those for the

[45:02] 18,000 for Bobcat, Wildcat, Pioneer, and

[45:05] Veterans Park. And then we always just

[45:08] put a little amount in there for

[45:09] miscellaneous park projects so that if

[45:11] we have anything come up we're able to,

[45:13] you know, go ahead and fix it or take

[45:15] care of it if we need to.

[45:17] >> And that's and that's really so that we

[45:19] just don't have to do a budget

[45:20] amendment. We'll still come to the

[45:22] council if we have a project, we'll

[45:24] still go by you, make sure that you

[45:26] bless it, that you're okay with it, but

[45:28] then we just don't have to do a budget

[45:30] amendment to to do the project if it's a

[45:32] small little miscellaneous project.

[45:39] » So on our storm water fund I'm going to

[45:42] press pause on that and go to the debt

[45:44] service fund because Jeremiah actually

[45:46] wrote up a nice memo for the storm water. Um, so

[45:50] our debt service revenues, um, as you

[45:52] know that we refinanced the bonds all

[45:54] but one

[45:56] um part of the 2016 bond. So looking at

[45:59] next year for the property tax and

[46:02] specific ownership, we're going to have

[46:04] to assess an 8.552

[46:07] mill levy. Um this always makes me happy

[46:10] when I tell you this because when we

[46:12] started this prom it started this

[46:15] project what our commitment was to the

[46:18] citizens was they would never have over

[46:21] a 20 mill mill levy. So

[46:24] it just keeps getting lower. So I just

[46:27] love that cuz that's better for our

[46:28] constituents. So yes, I always like that

[46:31] we have such a low mill levy. So um and

[46:34] then we have the transfer for the um

[46:37] COP payment um of 372 275.

[46:41] And then of course with that service,

[46:42] we're paying our bond principal, our

[46:44] bond interest, and then our COP

[46:46] principal and interest.

[46:50] Our volunteer fire pension fund

[46:52] we really kept that a lot the same. Um

[46:54] the city will make their 50,000

[46:56] matching.

[46:57] I will apply for the um grant with the

[47:00] state for 23,194.

[47:03] And then the benefit expenses we have

[47:05] been coming under those. So we're just

[47:07] going to leave that at 90.

[47:10] And then Sheridan celebrates, we did

[47:12] have one change that uh Jean wanted to

[47:15] note and that was that we have started

[47:18] having um interpretation and translation

[47:21] expense. So we have broken that out. So

[47:23] you will see there is a $2,000 line item

[47:26] for that in their budget. That's a

[47:28] little different from what it was in the

[47:29] past.

[47:31] And then moving on down to the storm

[47:34] water public works

[47:37] I think this year from

[47:40] in talking to Jeremiah and Devon is

[47:42] we're really going to

[47:44] the storm water rate model is going to

[47:48] get done.

[47:48] >> [laughter]

[47:49] >> I think there has to be

[47:51] um I think Jeremiah has looked into it

[47:54] and I I there's a lot of like he needs

[47:56] computer software or he needs some

[47:58] things to

[47:59] I believe I'm not going to say all this

[48:01] right, but basically to get all them

[48:03] information in the system so we have it

[48:05] documented

[48:07] and then they can build that that rate

[48:09] model off of it once he kind of has all

[48:12] of that in there. And so we will for

[48:15] 2027 for the revenue we do have as we

[48:17] have in the past we've always just

[48:19] increased the stormwater bills by 10%

[48:23] until we get that final rate model. So

[48:26] that's what we have for revenue increase

[48:28] and then like I said we're I think we

[48:30] are going to get this wrapped up and get

[48:32] the rate model and

[48:34] all of that going so we have a better

[48:36] picture of what we really need to do for

[48:38] the stormwater.

[48:41] » Yeah.

[48:42] Um

[48:44] So let me let me just that was very good

[48:47] summary by Teresa. Let me just touch on

[48:48] a little bit here. You know, if you

[48:50] remember during our goal setting we were

[48:52] talking about the stormwater fund. It is

[48:54] not sustainable. It's not in a

[48:56] sustainable place. We've been knowing

[48:58] we've known this for a while.

[49:00] Um so in order to build a sustainable

[49:04] rate model, you have to know uh what

[49:08] kind of system you have, how much does

[49:11] it cost to for that system to provide

[49:14] the service and how much does it cost to

[49:15] maintain it, how much does it cost for

[49:17] capital replacement of it over a span of

[49:20] years. So that's what we do and we bring

[49:22] in

[49:23] um a a rate modeler and that's what this

[49:26] $50,000 is to go out, make sure we

[49:29] understand exactly what the system

[49:31] involves.

[49:32] Um it would be um looking at TVing it,

[49:36] doing all the kind of stuff, making sure

[49:38] we do an assessment of its condition,

[49:40] all those kind of things.

[49:42] Uh and then have them look at that. Then

[49:44] once you know what is the cost to

[49:47] provide the service then you can build a

[49:49] rate model around that.

[49:50] >> Okay.

[49:50] >> them modelers?

[49:51] >> Mhm.

[49:52] >> Do they call themselves modelers?

[49:54] >> Oh, no.

[49:56] >> No, I was really curious. I'm like

[49:57] >> No, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, they they It's

[50:00] just It's contractors. It'd be a

[50:02] contractor that you hire that does that

[50:05] kind of work. Yeah. Uh the last time I

[50:08] did this, I did one for the town of

[50:10] Dillon, and the guy we hired to do it

[50:13] got hired away by Denver Water to do

[50:15] their rate modeling for them. So, it's

[50:17] some guys that some people specialize in

[50:20] >> And it's rare. That's what I was My next

[50:22] question was is modelers, there's

[50:23] probably

[50:24] few of them out there, right?

[50:26] >> There's There's some that specialize in

[50:28] it, and there's a few companies out

[50:29] there that will do this work.

[50:31] >> Oh.

[50:31] >> So, you'll we'll get a handful of bids

[50:34] from people to come and do the work for

[50:36] you.

[50:36] >> Yeah. That was exactly what I meant.

[50:38] >> Yep.

[50:39] Um

[50:39] >> How many do you think we'll get on it if

[50:41] there's

[50:41] few modelers?

[50:42] >> if if we got for a system our size, this

[50:45] small, if we get two or three, I'd be

[50:46] ecstatic.

[50:47] >> Okay.

[50:48] >> Yeah.

[50:48] >> All right. Cool.

[50:49] >> Um

[50:51] But we do also need to buy some computer

[50:53] software that helps us maintain that

[50:55] system, catalog that system, all this,

[50:57] you know, we don't have We don't have

[50:59] anything that does our storm water

[51:01] system right now. So, we need that. Uh

[51:03] and then um cleaning and video. So, we

[51:06] definitely um and this takes me into the

[51:09] last item I'll talk about on storm. Uh

[51:12] we do need to get in there. We do have

[51:14] areas of our storm water that needs to

[51:16] be cleaned up, that needs maintenance.

[51:18] Um we need to go in there, and the best

[51:20] way to know all that is that you video

[51:22] it all, so you can see have a visual

[51:24] record of what you have in there, and

[51:25] then go out and have that cleaned up.

[51:27] So, we got 50,000 in uh the capital for

[51:31] doing that for next year. We're going to

[51:32] be doing some of that right away,

[51:34] though. Uh and I wanted to This is one

[51:36] thing Jeremiah

[51:38] uh was going to talk to council tonight

[51:40] uh before he had that family emergency.

[51:42] And if I can just take 5 minutes, I'll

[51:44] talk about it. So, we had the big storm

[51:47] event. And we had uh

[51:50] a bit of flooding in the city as almost

[51:53] everybody had some flooding going on in

[51:55] across the metro area.

[51:57] Um by and large, our storm water system

[52:00] did what it needed to do.

[52:02] It uh it collected it put it the storm

[52:05] water into the areas that it needed to

[52:07] go to. It drained out as it needed to

[52:10] drain.

[52:11] Uh but there were some areas where it

[52:13] didn't work great. And we had some

[52:15] blockages.

[52:16] Uh we had some areas of flooding. So, um

[52:20] we have engaged with a company that we

[52:24] used to do some of the work at the VFW

[52:27] that needed to be done. And they're

[52:28] going to do some alleyway work. Our

[52:29] alleyways need some work that um when

[52:32] you have big washout events like this,

[52:35] it just exacerbates the problems when

[52:37] you have

[52:38] um some of the older dirt alleys like we

[52:40] have. So, we're going to have them do

[52:43] some work on our alleys that will help

[52:45] um with washout that we've saw. They're

[52:47] going to do the alleyway

[52:50] um between Girard and Hampton. Um

[52:53] that'll be involving reclaiming gravel

[52:55] and stabilizing it and prepping it for

[52:58] pave paving next year.

[53:00] We'll do the

[53:02] uh the alleyway

[53:04] um between Kenosha and Bryant on Girard.

[53:09] That'll be again reclaiming gravel and

[53:11] stabilizing.

[53:13] Uh and then on South King and Mansfield,

[53:15] that alley that way will pave

[53:18] uh this year.

[53:20] So, in addition to doing that, we also

[53:22] have um a couple companies that are

[53:24] scheduling

[53:26] uh in the next 2 weeks to do video uh

[53:29] additional video inspection and jet

[53:31] clean

[53:32] of the lights. So, we had with that, you

[53:34] know, you guys saw the pictures probably

[53:35] too. You know, a lot of stuff washed

[53:37] down into the drainage into the inlets

[53:40] into the area and it they need to be um

[53:43] we need to go in and video it, see where

[53:44] the blockages are, jet clean them where

[53:46] we can, and get that stuff out so that

[53:48] they're ready for the next storm, and we

[53:50] don't have backups. So, all of that is

[53:52] going on right now uh in addressing the

[53:56] uh latest big storm that we had. So, for

[53:59] again, the system worked pretty well. It

[54:02] really I mean, compared to what it was

[54:04] before we made all the improvements on

[54:05] the stormwater um system in uh about 10

[54:08] years ago, and everything I mean, it it

[54:11] was very good. Compared to how it could

[54:14] have been.

[54:14] >> You learned all them swimming pools at

[54:16] the end of the day. Nobody's swimming.

[54:18] >> Yeah. Well, you we used to have any kind

[54:20] of rain in over here in uh over here in

[54:23] the on uh

[54:25] It was just just

[54:26] um south of Dallas is what was it on?

[54:29] >> Decatur.

[54:30] Yeah, we had the the big uh the

[54:32] swimming hole over there.

[54:33] >> Yeah, great.

[54:34] >> That's gone.

[54:35] Woo.

[54:36] Yeah, that's [clears throat] that's gone

[54:38] pretty soon.

[54:38] >> Thanks goodness on that.

[54:40] >> Um

[54:40] >> Thank you.

[54:41] >> Teresa, anything I missed on stormwater?

[54:45] >> No, I think that covers it all.

[54:47] >> Okay. Any questions the council had on

[54:50] stormwater?

[54:51] >> Yeah.

[54:52] >> It was more about the road.

[54:54] >> Okay.

[54:54] >> I just wanted to know where there would

[54:55] be any alleys left unpaved.

[54:57] I was wondering if we had an idea of how

[54:59] many more there were.

[55:00] >> We got a handful of them, so you we do.

[55:02] So, um that's something that we

[55:04] definitely want to get to at one point

[55:06] is kind of paving as we go. We don't we

[55:08] can't do it all at once. We just We

[55:10] don't have the real funding to do that.

[55:12] >> couple of them.

[55:12] >> But doing one or two a year or so, or in

[55:15] some of the more problem ones that are

[55:17] what we see with that washout. Um so,

[55:20] that's definitely on on Jeremiah's radar

[55:23] to do a lot of that. And

[55:25] um looking at bringing on contractors to

[55:28] more cleaning and maintenance in the

[55:29] alleys that are um either gravel at this

[55:33] point, or they're you know, that we

[55:34] can't get to quite yet. And making sure

[55:36] that we're still doing that we can go

[55:38] through and grade it. We can do some of

[55:39] that work and making sure we're doing

[55:41] that.

[55:41] >> Sounds good.

[55:42] >> Yeah, you're good to go.

[55:43] Um

[55:45] >> Is your space something Are you at

[55:47] >> I'm hoping that it's the one that's

[55:49] right between Mansfield and Milan and

[55:52] King and

[55:54] >> Yes.

[55:55] >> Yeah, is that it? It's such a mess.

[55:57] >> I'm pretty sure it's

[55:58] >> Oh, it's all dirt and it's a four-wheel

[56:00] drive trail.

[56:01] >> So,

[56:02] um what So, the alley between South King

[56:05] and West Mansfield,

[56:09] uh will be paved by our patching company

[56:11] because erosion is problematic due to

[56:12] the steep grades and constant washout.

[56:15] So, I think it's Southland Jane. I

[56:16] apologize. So good for Jeremy sent me

[56:18] pictures, but I wasn't able to get them.

[56:21] But, I'm pretty sure it's Southland.

[56:22] >> It felt so.

[56:23] >> Yes, and I'll verify that for you. Um

[56:27] We've got a couple minutes, Mayor, so

[56:30] unless there's other questions.

[56:32] Tonight's pretty straightforward.

[56:35] Yeah, any questions on any of the items

[56:37] that we have on uh tonight? It's a

[56:39] second reading of the ordinance.

[56:41] >> Ordinance.

[56:41] >> Sales tax.

[56:42] >> Anthony has a question.

[56:43] >> Okay.

[56:44] >> This is unrelated, but the Sheridan

[56:45] celebrated were

[56:47] we're interested in if we could get

[56:49] possibly a city vehicle, maybe an

[56:51] electric vehicle to have for the parade.

[56:54] >> In the parade.

[56:56] >> Oh, to to like

[56:57] >> To be in the

[56:58] >> Just drive around in it? Yeah, we could

[57:00] do our one that has the has all the

[57:02] markings on it.

[57:03] >> Yeah.

[57:03] >> You know, that would be awesome.

[57:04] >> sounds perfect.

[57:05] >> Yeah, yeah.

[57:05] >> That's what we need.

[57:07] >> Yeah, you know, we can absolutely do

[57:08] that.

[57:09] >> Thank you.

[57:09] >> Yeah, we'll I'll I'll volunteer someone

[57:11] to drive it.

[57:14] Or you guys can do it either way.

[57:21] Yeah, your idea, you get to drive it,

[57:23] right?

[57:24] Okay.

[57:25] There you go.

[57:26] That sounds good.

[57:27] >> And check the mailboxes. Or anyone else

[57:29] that has any ideas for parade entries.

[57:33] >> I think I have a parade entries have

[57:34] been hard to come by nowadays.

[57:36] >> Because of the gas prices and the COVID.

[57:40] So.

[57:41] You want to walk or ride a horse or ride

[57:43] a bike or whatever.

[57:44] >> Yeah. Life is a horse.

[57:46] >> That's that's what

[57:49] » Get you a horse you have to get it

[57:50] >> You get a horse.

[57:53] I'm going to give you some of the little

[57:54] signs

[57:55] that you you know you represent the city

[57:57] of Paradise.

[58:00] >> Your custom banners and

[58:01] Or if you got your teeth

[58:02] >> Or you know

[58:05] Dallas always volunteered to be on the

[58:07] stupid crew behind at the end of the

[58:10] That was his thing he always volunteered

[58:11] but

[1:09:54] >> Thank you. City attorney.

[1:09:56] Hi Brandon. Nice to meet See you this

[1:09:58] evening.

[1:10:01] Uh-oh.

[1:10:04] » Well, I have nothing to report, but

[1:10:05] thank you for welcoming you.

[1:10:14] » City manager.

[1:10:15] >> [laughter]

[1:10:18] » Uh

[1:10:19] >> your turn.

[1:10:20] >> Yeah, thank you, Mayor.

[1:10:21] Uh, you have my written report in front

[1:10:23] of you. Just a one or two things I'll

[1:10:24] touch on there.

[1:10:26] Um,

[1:10:27] where did it go?

[1:10:28] Um,

[1:10:29] the second item I have on there, cable

[1:10:31] franchise agreement.

[1:10:33] Uh, I did have an initial meeting with,

[1:10:35] uh, a representative from Comcast to

[1:10:37] talk about the city's, uh, cable

[1:10:39] franchise agreement. It did expire in

[1:10:42] 2024, but that's not necessarily

[1:10:44] unusual. I've been informed by our the

[1:10:47] city attorney who luckily for us happens

[1:10:49] to be an expert on cable franchise

[1:10:52] agreement. So, um,

[1:10:54] just wanted to let you guys know that

[1:10:55] we're we'll begin working with uh,

[1:10:58] Comcast on renewing that franchise and

[1:11:00] we've got one of the best attorneys in

[1:11:01] the whole state to help us do it. So,

[1:11:03] yay.

[1:11:04] Um

[1:11:06] It means I don't have to do it.

[1:11:08] >> [laughter]

[1:11:12] » Yeah.

[1:11:14] Um sorry, hold on. Um oh, the the only

[1:11:17] other thing, the very last item on

[1:11:19] there, we our staff is issuing an RFP or

[1:11:23] has issued an RFP to bring on a new

[1:11:27] operations and maintenance vendor for

[1:11:28] our EV chargers. The as you guys

[1:11:31] probably know that the screens on there

[1:11:33] got burned out. And so, they're very

[1:11:36] difficult to see if not impossible to

[1:11:38] see on the screen. You can still charge

[1:11:39] your car using the app and a few people

[1:11:42] do that, but we lost quite a few

[1:11:44] customers

[1:11:46] once the operability of the screens went

[1:11:49] by the wayside. And we tried to get our vendor that we had at the time to

[1:11:53] out to do something about it. It was

[1:11:54] just not working very well. So, we're

[1:11:57] put out an RFP to get somebody new on

[1:11:59] board

[1:12:01] and address the issues that we've had

[1:12:03] with the with the screens and the

[1:12:05] operability of the chargers there. So,

[1:12:07] just wanted you to know that that's in

[1:12:09] progress.

[1:12:11] >> Devon, I have I have a question then on

[1:12:14] the EV chargers.

[1:12:17] Um

[1:12:18] will there be like

[1:12:21] a kind of a push to say, "Hey, our

[1:12:23] chargers are up and operating now in

[1:12:25] order to get those customers back?"

[1:12:27] >> Yeah, we'll do Yeah, we can do things we

[1:12:29] can look at doing a number of things

[1:12:31] even

[1:12:32] when chargers in cities have done this

[1:12:34] and a lot of places do this. When

[1:12:36] chargers are brand new, they'll do like

[1:12:38] they'll do a free month.

[1:12:40] Or they'll do a free period of time when

[1:12:43] people can come and just use them for

[1:12:44] free. There's also all kinds of apps

[1:12:47] that are out there and you can promote

[1:12:49] your chargers on the apps and you can

[1:12:51] hopefully maybe we can look at having

[1:12:53] our new vendor push back out to the apps

[1:12:55] and say hey um these chargers are are

[1:12:58] back in operating. They are they've

[1:13:00] always been operating. They just the

[1:13:01] screens have been

[1:13:03] yeah.

[1:13:03] >> in their in customers minds.

[1:13:05] >> Yes.

[1:13:06] >> They're not working.

[1:13:06] >> Yeah, so and we'll put the word out on

[1:13:09] all of our social media all of our ways.

[1:13:12] So we'll try and push the air and get

[1:13:13] people back to using it. But it was very

[1:13:16] unfortunate. Yeah, I think we definitely lost customers for for

[1:13:21] that. And we're not in it to make money.

[1:13:23] We don't make hardly any money on it at

[1:13:25] all. It's a service for our our citizens

[1:13:28] and we just want them to have you know

[1:13:30] good service and an opportunity to come

[1:13:31] and use the you know a high speed

[1:13:33] charger here.

[1:13:35] >> And

[1:13:35] >> [clears throat]

[1:13:35] >> and then I have one more question since we didn't

[1:13:39] cuz we were busy with budgeting and what

[1:13:41] have you earlier. The cable franchise So

[1:13:44] does that mean all of the

[1:13:47] um Xfinity

[1:13:50] >> So cable fran So cable franchising is

[1:13:52] just for the TV product. It doesn't deal

[1:13:55] with the internet product at all. But

[1:13:57] what it it really is is authorization to

[1:13:59] use the right away at the end of the day

[1:14:01] and all the rules and regulations around

[1:14:03] using the right away in exchange for our

[1:14:05] franchise fee.

[1:14:06] >> Okay.

[1:14:08] >> But we have we have separate franchise

[1:14:10] agreements say with Excel we have a

[1:14:12] franchise agreement with Comcast we have

[1:14:14] a franchise agreement. So we don't have

[1:14:15] one agreement that applies to everybody

[1:14:17] who uses the right away.

[1:14:19] >> There's several laws um for

[1:14:21] all these different utilities and cable

[1:14:23] is governed by the cable act which is a

[1:14:25] law from the 80s so there's very

[1:14:26] specific things that have to be

[1:14:28] um done in these franchises.

[1:14:31] >> So then Brandon can I ask just one more

[1:14:33] question? I know I was at the library

[1:14:35] trying to use the fax machine

[1:14:38] and it's a cable that runs from 7-Eleven

[1:14:42] to the library and is

[1:14:45] underground

[1:14:47] some type of

[1:14:50] >> Yeah, I mean I don't know

[1:14:51] >> And it's So, they had to replace

[1:14:54] the fax machine to work Bluetooth

[1:14:57] because that thing kept not working.

[1:15:00] So.

[1:15:01] >> Yeah, I mean that could be a variety of

[1:15:03] different providers.

[1:15:04] >> Right. I mean I I have no idea who the

[1:15:05] provider is, but when you're talking to

[1:15:09] the for cable franchising

[1:15:11] um

[1:15:15] Does that include the cable that's

[1:15:16] buried or out there or anything or just

[1:15:20] >> I mean the short answer is no

[1:15:22] because that that cable is either

[1:15:25] broadband internet product or it's a

[1:15:27] copper phone product.

[1:15:29] Both of which are separate regulatory

[1:15:31] issues.

[1:15:32] We are only allowed to regulate the

[1:15:33] cable franchise cable TV and that is a

[1:15:37] >> That's it.

[1:15:39] Just questioning.

[1:15:42] Cuz cable can mean a lot of things to a

[1:15:43] lot of people.

[1:15:44] >> Mhm. Oh, for sure.

[1:15:46] >> Okay.

[1:15:46] >> That's all I got, Mary. Happy to answer

[1:15:48] questions.

[1:15:48] >> Thanks.

[1:15:49] >> Mhm.

[1:15:53] » Jeez.

[1:15:55] >> I just had a backpack giveaway at Ellis

[1:15:57] Terry wanted to let you know about. We

[1:15:59] gave out some about 200 backpacks to our

[1:16:02] students going back to school there. So,

[1:16:04] that was a good opportunity to get with

[1:16:06] them. And then we had active shooter

[1:16:08] training over in a building in Englewood

[1:16:11] that is going to be torn down. So, it is

[1:16:13] a really huge building about a

[1:16:16] city block long and there's plenty of

[1:16:18] different doors and hallways. So, it was

[1:16:19] a real good opportunity to train in a

[1:16:23] place that you can't possibly know where

[1:16:26] a active shooter

[1:16:28] you know, where the bad guy would be

[1:16:29] hiding etc. So, we did that in

[1:16:31] partnership with Glendale.

[1:16:33] Glendale's sergeant

[1:16:36] wife works for the company. So, they've

[1:16:39] been very law law friendly and allowed

[1:16:41] us to go over there, so

[1:16:43] um we had a really good day of training

[1:16:44] there. We use what we call Sims

[1:16:46] ammunition, which is kind of like

[1:16:48] paintball, but they're smaller and they

[1:16:51] uh they hurt just like a paintball does.

[1:16:53] So, it makes it real um

[1:16:56] realistic, and the officers have to um

[1:16:59] sometimes they get hit with the paint

[1:17:00] balls or the Sims, and it hurts, but

[1:17:02] it's uh makes it a lot more realistic.

[1:17:05] So, a good day of training over there,

[1:17:07] and we've been able to do that with both

[1:17:08] sides of our house over there. So, just

[1:17:10] wanted to bring you up to date on that.

[1:17:12] Happy to answer any questions,

[1:17:14] Councilman.

[1:17:17] » Is this

[1:17:18] Oh, sorry. I was wondering how you uh

[1:17:20] funded your uh

[1:17:22] backpack, you know, your community

[1:17:24] involvement, how you guys uh did you do

[1:17:26] fundraisers for that?

[1:17:27] >> No, actually we partner with uh another

[1:17:30] agency. Um why can't I think of their

[1:17:33] name right now? Um

[1:17:35] Precious. Precious Child. Um so, they're

[1:17:38] uh

[1:17:39] they're a um

[1:17:41] company or a business or nonprofit that

[1:17:43] is basically up north, but um a few

[1:17:46] years ago I got connected with them, and

[1:17:47] we've applied, and we've been lucky

[1:17:49] enough to be selected each year that um

[1:17:51] I've been doing it the last 5 years. So,

[1:17:54] they're the ones that supply all the

[1:17:55] backpacks from their nonprofit

[1:17:57] organization. And the backpacks come

[1:17:59] full with supplies, so it's not just the

[1:18:01] backpack. Comes with pencils and

[1:18:04] crayons, and they're kind of grade

[1:18:06] specific, and that's why we choose one

[1:18:08] school at a time. Um we chose for the

[1:18:10] younger kids this year.

[1:18:12] >> Thanks for doing that, Chief.

[1:18:14] >> You're welcome.

[1:18:15] Precious Child.

[1:18:20] Any other questions?

[1:18:22] >> Do you have a question?

[1:18:25] Okay.

[1:18:28] No. No questions. Anyone else questions?

[1:18:31] Okay.

[1:18:32] Uh next we have the minutes from the

[1:18:34] regular City Council meeting of August

[1:18:36] 10th, 2026

[1:18:38] um is um

[1:18:41] I have a motion from Councilman Camacho

[1:18:45] and a second from Mayor Pro Tem Michael

[1:18:48] Moreno. Um

[1:18:52] Questions?

[1:18:55] No. Hearing none, we can go ahead and

[1:18:57] cast our votes.

[1:19:01] That passes unanimously. Uh next we have

[1:19:04] the consent agenda including approval of

[1:19:06] disbursements from August 1st, 2026 to

[1:19:08] August 15th, 2026 in the amount of

[1:19:11] $576,061.61.

[1:19:16] And y'all do this stuff on purpose,

[1:19:17] don't you?

[1:19:22] We

[1:19:24] Uh we have a motion from Councilmember

[1:19:26] Whitaker and a second from Councilwoman

[1:19:29] Standing.

[1:19:31] Are there any questions other than how

[1:19:33] do these numbers

[1:19:35] keep showing up 61 and 61 cents and 76

[1:19:39] cents? It's just

[1:19:41] mind-boggling.

[1:19:45] We can cast our votes. That passes

[1:19:47] unanimously

[1:19:49] uh with seven votes.

[1:19:51] Um

[1:19:52] There are no public hearings

[1:19:54] um this evening.

[1:19:56] Um the next item is

[1:19:58] um

[1:20:00] Ordinance uh

[1:20:02] 132020

[1:20:04] 13-2026

[1:20:06] is an ordinance of the City Council of

[1:20:08] the City of Sheridan referring to city

[1:20:09] voters

[1:20:11] a 0.50%

[1:20:13] increase in the city sales tax sales and

[1:20:16] use tax for public safety purposes.

[1:20:28] Um we have a motion by Councilmember

[1:20:31] Whitaker and a second by

[1:20:34] uh uh

[1:20:35] >> It's a matter of law. We will need a

[1:20:36] public hearing for this cuz there's a um

[1:20:39] second reading.

[1:20:40] Yeah.

[1:20:42] » It is a second.

[1:20:44] >> Yeah. So, for all second readings of

[1:20:46] >> Question. Don't we have to have a

[1:20:50] motion and a second and it be on the

[1:20:52] table for the hearing to start?

[1:20:54] >> We have the public hearing be prior to the motion and the second.

[1:20:57] Motion and second is prior to

[1:20:58] discussion.

[1:20:59] >> Okay.

[1:20:59] >> Um so, usually

[1:21:01] >> it backwards.

[1:21:01] >> If we have a staff presentation, I just

[1:21:03] I mean there isn't this case. We've

[1:21:04] talked about it quite a bit. All the

[1:21:06] evidence is collected, then we move into

[1:21:08] the motion, the second, and discussion.

[1:21:11] >> Because this then I will open up the

[1:21:13] hearing?

[1:21:15] >> Yes.

[1:21:15] >> And I

[1:21:16] Are there

[1:21:17] anyone to speak in the hearing?

[1:21:21] I will now close the hearing.

[1:21:27] Okay. Thanks.

[1:21:31] Now we have

[1:21:33] a motion

[1:21:34] from Councilman Whitaker and a

[1:21:37] uh second from Mayor Pro Tem

[1:21:40] uh Moreno.

[1:21:41] Are there any question on the second

[1:21:44] reading of ordinance 13-2026?

[1:21:50] Hearing none, we can go ahead and cast

[1:21:51] the votes.

[1:21:59] Ordinances on first reading, there are

[1:22:02] none this evening.

[1:22:04] Um there are also no resolutions

[1:22:07] um this evening.

[1:22:09] Um we do have the volunteer fire pension

[1:22:11] board semi-annual report.

[1:22:16] And

[1:22:17] >> Good evening, everyone.

[1:22:19] >> Good evening,

[1:22:20] Teresa.

[1:22:21] >> I I have did this once tonight, so I

[1:22:24] should get it better this time. So, hey,

[1:22:26] on page 51 of your report, um we're

[1:22:30] actually going to kind of focus on the

[1:22:32] last two columns.

[1:22:34] Um the very last column is our January

[1:22:37] through June. As you can see, we've had

[1:22:39] no activity in our checking account.

[1:22:41] We'll go on down to the pension fund.

[1:22:44] Um our beginning balance is 330,906.

[1:22:48] We have had no contributions through the

[1:22:51] end of June. The net benefits that have

[1:22:54] been paid out are 33,711.

[1:22:58] We've had interest, dividends, and other

[1:23:01] revenue of 5,130.

[1:23:04] We've had an unrealized gain of 982

[1:23:08] and a realized gain of 2,117.

[1:23:12] And we've had fees and expenses of

[1:23:14] 3,870,

[1:23:18] leaving with a ending fund balance of

[1:23:20] 301,555.

[1:23:24] Now, I'd like you to jump over to the

[1:23:25] column just to the left of that. This is

[1:23:27] where I think we will be at the end of

[1:23:29] the year.

[1:23:30] Um so, our contributions, I can tell you

[1:23:33] that on August 8th, I made the $50,000

[1:23:37] city contribution to FPPA. The state

[1:23:41] grant will open up on September 1st. I

[1:23:45] have been getting emails about it. I

[1:23:46] think they're switching their portal, so

[1:23:48] we will make sure to get applied for

[1:23:50] that so we see that money in before the

[1:23:52] end of the year.

[1:23:54] Our net benefits, we budgeted 90,000,

[1:23:57] but based on what we have paid

[1:23:59] throughout June, I'm predicting that to

[1:24:01] be 67,422.

[1:24:05] And then our interest in div-

[1:24:08] idends, I'm saying 10,261.

[1:24:11] Our unrealized gain, 1,964.

[1:24:15] Our realized gain of 4,235.

[1:24:18] And fees and expenses of 7,740,

[1:24:22] which would leave us an ending fund

[1:24:24] balance of 345,000

[1:24:27] 398,

[1:24:28] which is a little bit higher than what

[1:24:30] we had budgeted for. So, that leaves the

[1:24:32] pension fund in a better position. So,

[1:24:35] that is the semi-annual report, and I'm

[1:24:39] happy to answer any questions.

[1:24:48] » Any questions?

[1:24:51] No question,

[1:24:53] you know. Oh, yep.

[1:24:54] >> Is there management fees associated with

[1:24:56] that account?

[1:25:00] » For the pension fund account?

[1:25:02] >> Yeah.

[1:25:03] >> They do charge fees

[1:25:05] um for managing it, and also for um when

[1:25:09] they do like the actuarial, you'll see

[1:25:11] that happens every other year. There is

[1:25:13] a fee for that, so you'll see on the odd

[1:25:15] years that that increases. So, yes, FPPA

[1:25:18] does charge

[1:25:21] fees for administering it.

[1:25:24] >> Thank you.

[1:25:27] » Any other questions?

[1:25:29] >> [snorts]

[1:25:29] >> Hearing none, um there is a

[1:25:32] uh motion on the floor from Mayor Pro

[1:25:34] Tem Moreno and a second from uh

[1:25:38] Councilwoman Singh.

[1:25:44] And cast votes.

[1:25:46] That's approved unanimously.

[1:25:49] Um

[1:25:51] Thanks, Teresa.

[1:25:53] Next is Mayor's choice.

[1:25:56] Um

[1:25:59] Uh let's see, what have I done this last

[1:26:01] weekend?

[1:26:03] I did do some canvassing out in the

[1:26:05] neighborhoods inviting people to share

[1:26:07] it and celebrate.

[1:26:09] Um I also went to the VFW pig roast, and

[1:26:12] let me tell you,

[1:26:13] that was a blast.

[1:26:15] Um they actually had pig races

[1:26:18] with

[1:26:20] the balloons love kept the

[1:26:24] shaped like pigs with numbers on them

[1:26:27] uh one through six and they rolled the

[1:26:29] dice and

[1:26:31] with whatever the number was then the

[1:26:33] pig advanced. Um, they had

[1:26:37] uh

[1:26:38] water balloons thrown at the new

[1:26:41] commander um who's been here um to visit

[1:26:44] with us

[1:26:46] uh which was fun.

[1:26:48] Um, just lots of really good

[1:26:50] uh

[1:26:51] food. Um

[1:26:53] So, it it was quite quite an event.

[1:26:54] There were quite a lot of people there.

[1:26:55] I really kind of enjoyed it. So.

[1:26:59] That's all I have.

[1:27:01] Anyone else?

[1:27:04] Go ahead.

[1:27:06] Councilman Choices up next. Go ahead,

[1:27:09] Mr.

[1:27:09] >> Yes.

[1:27:10] Um, so I'm going through the

[1:27:12] neighborhood um since I've been on

[1:27:13] council now eight months going through

[1:27:16] the neighborhood

[1:27:16] >> hear you.

[1:27:17] >> Okay. My thing is on is on.

[1:27:19] >> Oh.

[1:27:20] >> And um

[1:27:20] >> Hold it closer.

[1:27:21] >> I was saying

[1:27:22] >> There you go.

[1:27:22] >> Hold it a little closer.

[1:27:24] That um the people are very happy that

[1:27:27] um I was concerned to even speak to them

[1:27:30] because when we went out for election of

[1:27:32] course you speak to everyone like hey

[1:27:35] what's you want to get them to sign your

[1:27:37] um petition but I was able to go out and

[1:27:40] some of the concerns that some of the

[1:27:41] neighborhood was talking about you

[1:27:42] answered it earlier was about some of

[1:27:44] the roads one of the gentlemen had got

[1:27:46] his hit a pothole

[1:27:48] and uh it blew out his tire and he was

[1:27:50] like the city should be able to pay for

[1:27:52] my my my my his rim got bent or

[1:27:56] something like that and uh

[1:27:58] I don't know if anybody else experienced

[1:27:59] this when you were on council or

[1:28:01] something people think you may have more

[1:28:03] power than you may actually have the

[1:28:05] city can you fix this situation and

[1:28:08] uh whatever but what I've been doing is

[1:28:10] directing people to the sources that

[1:28:13] they need to go to.

[1:28:15] Possibly if I have a question about it I

[1:28:17] will call, but to not have people

[1:28:20] bombard us with small problems, to have

[1:28:23] them being able to reach the people that

[1:28:25] they need to talk to about the

[1:28:27] situation. If it's something with public

[1:28:29] safety or something I'm going to tell

[1:28:30] them

[1:28:31] call uh Chief Martinez,

[1:28:35] you know, and ask about that question

[1:28:37] about something like that. But I'm

[1:28:38] thinking that we're in position to

[1:28:40] direct the city to different things and

[1:28:42] sources that they may need to have to

[1:28:44] keep us not being over burdened burdened

[1:28:47] with stuff. To try to handle what I've

[1:28:49] been doing is doing research to find out

[1:28:52] what I can do to handle that problem.

[1:28:54] And if it got overwhelming, then I could

[1:28:56] come and say something to the council or

[1:28:59] something like that.

[1:29:00] But I was saying that I'm in my eighth

[1:29:02] month, learning so much things and some

[1:29:04] things that I thought I knew

[1:29:06] I was wrong about. Okay, and I was

[1:29:09] saying that um

[1:29:11] the being very careful with the with the

[1:29:15] council, the name of the council and

[1:29:17] things of that nature when I'm speaking

[1:29:18] to people. They can be able to not get

[1:29:22] I see that there's a slight

[1:29:24] there's a way that you can get in a

[1:29:25] little bit of

[1:29:26] m-

[1:29:27] um trouble in some way by maybe

[1:29:31] saying the wrong thing or presenting the

[1:29:33] things wrong. So I'm learning what to

[1:29:35] have. So forgive me if I call and ask a

[1:29:37] lot of questions and and things. It's

[1:29:40] what I'm new here for this. So I want to

[1:29:42] not make mistakes. I don't like to make

[1:29:44] them, but I guess we will slip

[1:29:47] somewhere, but

[1:29:48] thank everyone for all the guidance that

[1:29:50] I've been getting so far.

[1:29:52] But I'm just thinking I'm excited. I'm

[1:29:54] needing way more time and things have

[1:29:57] become more apparent. Chief, on your

[1:30:00] with your

[1:30:01] with the with the department with the

[1:30:03] with your

[1:30:04] unit, do they feel good about their their safety, about everything,

[1:30:09] about their selves, about your your your team? They feel pretty good?

[1:30:15] >> Yes. Um you know, there's always dangers

[1:30:17] that are out there, but this is a relatively very safe city, and the

[1:30:22] support that they have from all of you

[1:30:24] in the city manager really helps them be

[1:30:26] able to do their jobs

[1:30:28] um and feel confident that they can do

[1:30:30] it.

[1:30:31] >> One of the things that I found that in

[1:30:32] the community is that they feel pretty

[1:30:35] good about the safety of the city, and

[1:30:37] that was very positive. They just crying

[1:30:40] about We have a Our roads are not that

[1:30:42] bad because if this was Mexico I'm not

[1:30:45] Mexico, this was San Diego. Under

[1:30:47] Hampton would be San Diego. I mean, it

[1:30:49] would be um What was that? Mexico. It

[1:30:51] would be Tijuana. That's what I'm trying

[1:30:53] to say. If this over here is um

[1:30:56] kind of like San Diego, then you go

[1:30:57] under the bridge, the roads get worse.

[1:31:00] So, I was telling them that the roads

[1:31:01] over here are not that bad, but we have

[1:31:03] a couple of situations. Do we have a

[1:31:05] time when those roads and everything are

[1:31:07] addressed at one time, or are they

[1:31:09] happen throughout the year?

[1:31:13] » It depends on what it is. So, larger

[1:31:14] projects will be scheduled on an annual

[1:31:17] basis, and they rotate throughout uh the

[1:31:19] city depending on

[1:31:21] uh the condition of the pavement, and

[1:31:23] that's that'll be

[1:31:25] uh what we use as a pavement management

[1:31:27] system that grades out the pavement into

[1:31:29] a like a numerical score, and then that

[1:31:31] directs us Well, okay, where do we need

[1:31:33] to pay attention to doing larger like

[1:31:35] say um

[1:31:37] uh larger chip seal projects or um mill

[1:31:41] and overlay, which is, you know, doing

[1:31:43] whole sections of street at a time,

[1:31:45] right? So, blocks or block or more at a

[1:31:47] time. If you got a situation where you

[1:31:49] got somebody that hit a pothole, and

[1:31:51] then that, just call me.

[1:31:53] >> Right.

[1:31:54] >> Yeah, and we'll get somebody out there

[1:31:55] like that.

[1:31:56] >> Okay.

[1:31:57] >> Yes. Now, that we do we'll just do if we

[1:31:59] got a bad pothole or got a bad bad

[1:32:01] situation like that, we send our crews

[1:32:03] right out.

[1:32:04] >> We do not reimburse people for damages

[1:32:08] that

[1:32:08] >> They People can People can put in a

[1:32:10] claim with the city. They can put

[1:32:13] forward a claim. They can put a claim in

[1:32:15] and then we would take that to our

[1:32:17] insurance companies and they would

[1:32:18] adjudicate that with

[1:32:20] >> Have you ever had anyone come with that

[1:32:22] and had money returned to them? So,

[1:32:24] that's positive.

[1:32:25] >> Not very often, no.

[1:32:27] >> I was not pushing that part, okay.

[1:32:29] >> No, because driving on streets

[1:32:32] um

[1:32:33] part of that is that there are potholes

[1:32:35] at times, right? And and go ahead. I'm I

[1:32:38] don't want to say too much.

[1:32:40] Yeah.

[1:32:42] >> You assume a lot of liability, right,

[1:32:44] when you use public roads. I mean, it's

[1:32:46] a known ha- There are known hazards,

[1:32:47] right, that exist. So, someone could,

[1:32:49] you know, apply their insurance,

[1:32:50] certainly. You could try to make a claim

[1:32:52] with the city's insurance. It's probably

[1:32:53] not going to go over very far.

[1:32:55] >> But, it's not unrealistic for them to

[1:32:56] make the to approach. It's not

[1:32:58] unrealistic.

[1:32:59] >> I would caution them that it's unlikely

[1:33:01] they would succeed. Um but, it it is an

[1:33:03] option that they could try to make a

[1:33:04] claim on the city's insurance. It They'd

[1:33:06] be much better off claiming on their own

[1:33:08] insurance if it was a significant

[1:33:10] problem.

[1:33:11] >> Okay. Well, thank you. And um Jenna, I

[1:33:14] want to go to the conference.

[1:33:16] I believe it's going to be very helpful

[1:33:18] to see them the CML was just

[1:33:21] really helped me and I'm looking forward

[1:33:23] to this uh next event.

[1:33:25] So, thank you.

[1:33:29] » Uh and just one other point, it

[1:33:32] if it was federal or if it was

[1:33:35] 285, that just cuz it lies in the city

[1:33:38] doesn't mean that we're responsible for

[1:33:40] it.

[1:33:41] Some of them belong to CDOT.

[1:33:44] Right?

[1:33:46] So,

[1:33:48] » Yeah, so um federal and 285 are regional

[1:33:53] uh roadways that are um owned and

[1:33:55] operated by the state of CDOT state.

[1:33:57] Mhm.

[1:33:58] >> Okay.

[1:33:58] right.

[1:33:59] >> Anyone else? Jay, you have anything?

[1:34:01] >> I do.

[1:34:02] Um, I was grateful to represent the city

[1:34:05] on the board of directors at DRCOG last

[1:34:07] week.

[1:34:08] And um

[1:34:10] they wanted

[1:34:12] those those of us that were there to

[1:34:14] convey back to our councils that

[1:34:19] we want to move on approving the traffic

[1:34:22] congestion reduction and on-road mobile source emissions reduction

[1:34:27] targets if we get the chance.

[1:34:30] They uh

[1:34:31] you know, the you know, expanding

[1:34:33] multimodal transportation

[1:34:36] um

[1:34:38] What's that?

[1:34:39] >> DRCOG.

[1:34:40] >> Yeah. Is is a big deal.

[1:34:42] Um the other main thing I got from there

[1:34:44] is they are going to be expanding C-E470

[1:34:48] between 104th

[1:34:50] and what I think

[1:34:51] might be Santa Fe still, 80 85 up north.

[1:34:55] It's neat to see that going because

[1:34:57] E-470's been amazing.

[1:35:00] They're expanding that.

[1:35:02] That's all.

[1:35:03] >> Nice, thank you. Thank you for

[1:35:04] representing.

[1:35:05] >> Councilman Whitaker, could you tell me

[1:35:07] what was the standard that DRCOG wanted

[1:35:09] us to adopt? I'm not sure I know that

[1:35:12] one.

[1:35:13] >> Just so I can write it down correctly.

[1:35:15] >> They recommend we move to approve the
