This is a 137 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:52,959 great step in the right direction and uh 138 00:10:52,959 --> 00:10:54,959 we're very excited for this. This is 139 00:10:54,959 --> 00:10:57,440 going to help us get that uh uh lift 140 00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:02,399 station enforcement uh implemented and cons and constructed for to allow 141 00:11:02,399 --> 00:11:04,640 for are uh the expansion of the sewer 142 00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:08,480 capacity for the city.

This is a uh a 145 00:11:15,680 --> 00:11:19,040 request for $1.2 million. And we 146 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:20,720 submitted this grant, completed the 147 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:22,480 application. It was a very lengthy 148 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,040 application. Uh we have made it through 149 00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:27,519 some steps in the grant process. Uh by 150 00:11:27,519 --> 00:11:30,320 this point 80% of the applications have 151 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,920 been either kicked out or denied. So 152 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,880 we're in the 20th percentile. So uh 153 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,040 we're going to keep pushing forward and 154 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:40,880 hopefully uh we'll be able to get this 155 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:45,120 additional funding. This is also um we 156 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:46,959 will utilize these funds to uh 157 00:11:46,959 --> 00:11:49,040 contribute the building of a force main 158 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,279 and lift station. Um we have also 159 00:11:51,279 --> 00:11:54,160 applied for an EPA water tech grant. Uh 160 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,079 EPA has accepted a request for 161 00:11:56,079 --> 00:11:58,640 assistance on the force main project. Uh 162 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:00,560 what EPA is going to do for the city is 163 00:12:00,560 --> 00:12:03,200 going to fully fund the pre-engineering 164 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,839 all the way up to the design phase uh 165 00:12:05,839 --> 00:12:08,399 and environmental for the project and 166 00:12:08,399 --> 00:12:10,160 there is no matching contribution for 167 00:12:10,160 --> 00:12:12,720 this. So the engineering and the 168 00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:15,120 environmental all that cost four 169 00:12:15,120 --> 00:12:18,160 $500,000 then the EPA will cover it uh 170 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:19,680 100%. 171 00:12:19,680 --> 00:12:22,320 Um, we've we have also applied for a 172 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:24,480 cyber security grant.

We 175 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,440 receive uh some help from our IT uh 176 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,320 person that we contract for the city and 177 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:36,320 we answer all of their questions. So, at 178 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:37,519 this point, we're just waiting to hear 179 00:12:37,519 --> 00:12:39,519 back. For this grant, we applied for 180 00:12:39,519 --> 00:12:42,560 $56,000. This one does have a matching 181 00:12:42,560 --> 00:12:43,839 contribution, which I believe, if I 182 00:12:43,839 --> 00:12:46,000 remember correctly, is about $15,000, 183 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:47,839 but it's definitely worth it. This is 184 00:12:47,839 --> 00:12:51,200 going to help us secure the city u from 185 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,240 ransomware attacks and just be able to 186 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,160 avoid that. I've lived through a cyber 187 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,079 attack at another city where I've worked 188 00:12:58,079 --> 00:12:59,839 and I do not wish that on anybody. It 189 00:12:59,839 --> 00:13:03,120 was a nightmare. Um and the last one is 190 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,760 uh also a Texas Waterboard grant and 191 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,079 this is to replace asbestous water 192 00:13:08,079 --> 00:13:10,560 lines. The city has requested $2.7 193 00:13:10,560 --> 00:13:12,480 million and we're also waiting to hear 194 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,800 back. This is one that I'm hopeful that 195 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:16,800 uh they'll be able to approve for for 196 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,040 the city. 197 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:22,880 Um and that is the up now. Um this last 198 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:24,959 week, I believe it was LA last week, we 199 00:13:24,959 --> 00:13:27,440 had the opportunity to meet with Texot 200 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:29,440 and a few other uh stakeholders in the 201 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,920 community to discuss the service roads 202 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:34,320 going in one direction. 203 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:35,760 Basically the point that we were trying 204 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:37,440 to make is that if we make boat boat 205 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,160 service roads go in one direction it 206 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,839 will create a traffic jam uh at the 207 00:13:43,839 --> 00:13:46,639 intersection of 148 and 175. So we were 208 00:13:46,639 --> 00:13:48,320 looking for alternatives to be able to 209 00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:51,120 leave at the very least a section going 210 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:54,959 two-way. So this is what text that and 211 00:13:54,959 --> 00:13:57,040 the city and the other stakeholders have 212 00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,839 agreed and this is how 213 00:13:59,839 --> 00:14:02,000 and I'm going to try to describe this uh 214 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,800 very uh carefully for uh the people that 215 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,040 are not seeing me point this this laser. 216 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:11,680 So the north service road 175 this 217 00:14:11,680 --> 00:14:13,680 service road is going to stay is going 218 00:14:13,680 --> 00:14:15,199 to go one way. This is going to be 219 00:14:15,199 --> 00:14:18,000 switched uh the time from Texas probably 220 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,160 this summer. Uh the one thing that we 221 00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:22,079 did request is that we try and do it 222 00:14:22,079 --> 00:14:24,639 when school is not in in in session. 223 00:14:24,639 --> 00:14:26,639 That way they have time to educate the 224 00:14:26,639 --> 00:14:31,600 parents. And so this line uh orange line 225 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:33,920 all the way up to here is going to go in 226 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:36,720 one direction. The blue dotted line is 227 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,440 going to remain two-way on the south 228 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:45,269 side. So it will be from uh 748. 229 00:14:45,279 --> 00:14:47,920 This section of the service road will 230 00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:49,680 remain 231 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,399 And this is just this will ensure that 232 00:14:52,399 --> 00:14:54,399 citizens uh and just people who drive 233 00:14:54,399 --> 00:14:57,120 through Crannle have another way in and 234 00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:00,240 out of the city to avoid uh traffic 235 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,040 congestion. 236 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,279 Yes. 237 00:15:05,279 --> 00:15:08,639 Maybe prior to this happening, 238 00:15:08,639 --> 00:15:10,079 you know, if this is going to happen 239 00:15:10,079 --> 00:15:11,440 this summer, we need to start getting 240 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,399 the word out now.

So 245 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,199 >> I mean I start start the learning 246 00:15:25,199 --> 00:15:27,279 process now 247 00:15:27,279 --> 00:15:28,000 process 248 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,920 >> and uh that is a discussion that we had 249 00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:33,040 with uh text. Text will help advertise 250 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:34,800 this and uh it will be a collaborative 251 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:36,880 effort between text the city the school 252 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,360 district uh even our police department. 253 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,360 We will advertise this change before it 254 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:42,800 happens.

Uh I'm trying to Okay, 617 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:08,960 so the city of Cranle's there in the 618 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,920 star. The the streets highlighted in 619 00:35:11,920 --> 00:35:14,160 magenta, that's considered our north 620 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:16,720 streets on the bottom there and the gold 621 00:35:16,720 --> 00:35:18,560 golden rod, that's considered our south 622 00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,119 streets. 623 00:35:21,119 --> 00:35:22,720 The next slide here, we're just taking a 624 00:35:22,720 --> 00:35:24,480 closer look at the north streets between 625 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:27,680 Maro and Maui. Um we didn't um we 626 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:30,160 decided not to do improvements in this 627 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:31,680 location because currently you folks 628 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:34,640 have a contract for um improvements on 629 00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:37,599 Maui Street here which is the um is 630 00:35:37,599 --> 00:35:40,960 going to be a concrete pavement um curb 631 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:43,200 and gutter with a closed storm drainage 632 00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:45,200 uh system. So because of those 633 00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:47,359 improvements, we s we thought that the 634 00:35:47,359 --> 00:35:49,680 benefit would be better observed in the 635 00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:52,079 south the south streets 636 00:35:52,079 --> 00:35:53,680 and as you can see here in the in the 637 00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:57,119 yellow or golden rod. Uh this is the map 638 00:35:57,119 --> 00:35:59,839 just tilted on its side. Um the reason 639 00:35:59,839 --> 00:36:03,040 for this map is because um currently you 640 00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:05,520 folks have a drainage system that's in 641 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:08,480 this red line that runs from north to 642 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,440 south on First Street and there's a 42 643 00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:13,599 inch um reinforced concrete outfall 644 00:36:13,599 --> 00:36:16,320 there. So this project in the south is 645 00:36:16,320 --> 00:36:19,359 to utilize um that drainage improvement 646 00:36:19,359 --> 00:36:23,280 and um we wanted to include in improve 647 00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:27,359 the drainage on church and vansston as 648 00:36:27,359 --> 00:36:30,640 well as Gleon um connecting to in the 649 00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:31,920 next slide it'll show you what we're 650 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,720 connecting to these um drop inlets. So 651 00:36:34,720 --> 00:36:36,720 all of those at each of those cross 652 00:36:36,720 --> 00:36:39,119 streets we have these drop inlets and 653 00:36:39,119 --> 00:36:40,560 their proposed improvements are going to 654 00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:49,109 connect to this existing feature there. 655 00:36:49,119 --> 00:36:51,520 Okay. So, uh this is just an existing 656 00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:54,480 view of the pavement on church. Um as 657 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:55,520 you can see, I'm just going to go 658 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:57,280 through these slides.

It almost looks 679 00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:56,240 like a concrete channel. What we're 680 00:37:56,240 --> 00:37:58,160 proposing is to do and to save some 681 00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:01,440 money is to propose um a concrete flume 682 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:04,400 here which is about 2 feet wide with um 683 00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:07,760 grass slopes at 4:1. 684 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:09,680 So I just wanted to show part of the 685 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:11,280 proposed improvements here.

And 818 00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:34,230 let me turn this. 819 00:45:34,240 --> 00:45:37,270 Okay. 820 00:45:37,280 --> 00:45:39,200 So, um, currently what you have is a 821 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:41,280 lift station that that's under proposed, 822 00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:43,040 as you all know, a lift station down at 823 00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:44,880 the wastewater treatment plant with a 824 00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:47,760 force main that's going to be parallel 825 00:45:47,760 --> 00:45:50,400 to the Eagle Crest all the way to the 826 00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:52,880 North Texas Municipal Water District's 827 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:56,000 lower east fork interceptor system, the 828 00:45:56,000 --> 00:45:58,400 Leis that we're going to connect and and 829 00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:00,960 u we had been asked by city staff to 830 00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:06,640 revisit that, reook at um due to the the growth projections and the patterns 831 00:46:06,640 --> 00:46:08,240 concerns. We've been asked to go ahead 832 00:46:08,240 --> 00:46:10,079 and look at it to see what is there 833 00:46:10,079 --> 00:46:12,480 another feasible opportunity to be able 834 00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:14,800 to maximize those dollars, make it more 835 00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:17,119 financially feasible for the city. And 836 00:46:17,119 --> 00:46:19,760 we've uh vetted that with city staff. We 837 00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:22,000 met several times, did some workshop 838 00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:23,520 meetings, uh looked at all the 839 00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:27,040 projections costs timewise, and we came 840 00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:29,599 up with this alternate, which 841 00:46:29,599 --> 00:46:32,720 surprisingly was the original one, but 842 00:46:32,720 --> 00:46:35,839 instead of having two, one lift station, 843 00:46:35,839 --> 00:46:37,920 we broke it up into having a north and 844 00:46:37,920 --> 00:46:40,480 having a south lift station. So that as 845 00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:42,880 you have the the growth that is coming 846 00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:45,520 in now, uh that would be conveyed to 847 00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:47,680 this north lift station and then be able 848 00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:50,480 to be conveyed over to the left to be 849 00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:53,760 able to to start into the regional 850 00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:57,599 system if you may. Um, so the blue 851 00:46:57,599 --> 00:46:59,680 lines, the blue box, that would be the 852 00:46:59,680 --> 00:47:02,880 north infrastructure and the red box and 853 00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:05,599 the red line that would continue to stay 854 00:47:05,599 --> 00:47:07,520 as the the southern lift station, 855 00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:10,000 southern infrastructure. 856 00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:12,640 Some of the work can still remain a as 857 00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:14,960 you see where those two lines combine 858 00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:17,040 going west. The city has already 859 00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:19,680 approached property owners as you may 860 00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:21,920 already know. So that that that 861 00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:24,000 alignment, those easements, those are 862 00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:26,319 still good. uh and useful, but 863 00:47:26,319 --> 00:47:29,119 everything to the east um would have to 864 00:47:29,119 --> 00:47:31,760 start again from from new. Um the city 865 00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:34,800 staff has also been approaching the that 866 00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:37,040 we understand um has been approaching 867 00:47:37,040 --> 00:47:39,760 the the property owners where this new 868 00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:42,160 north lift station would be. So there's 869 00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:44,400 some some incentives for that. So the 870 00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:52,790 city communications are ongoing on that. 871 00:47:52,800 --> 00:47:55,359 So what we did is we we broke up the 872 00:47:55,359 --> 00:47:56,960 north projections and the southern 873 00:47:56,960 --> 00:47:59,520 projections time-wise. And we know that 874 00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:02,560 this is a a lot of numbers here, but 875 00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:04,640 basically on the left is is all the 876 00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:06,400 developments that are going into the 877 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:08,480 northern lift station. And then we have 878 00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:11,920 about 4,300 uh lots that would be 879 00:48:11,920 --> 00:48:13,839 conveying that influent to the north 880 00:48:13,839 --> 00:48:18,470 lift station. 881 00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:20,640 This cost is a breakdown comparing the 882 00:48:20,640 --> 00:48:22,640 north and the southern lift station. 883 00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:24,640 Initially, we had the 13 million gallons 884 00:48:24,640 --> 00:48:27,440 a day infrastructure on the south. And 885 00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:29,839 so now, by breaking it up, we we're able 886 00:48:29,839 --> 00:48:33,040 to account for about approximately 5 887 00:48:33,040 --> 00:48:35,280 million gallons a day of effing going on 888 00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:38,079 the north and then leaving the remainder 889 00:48:38,079 --> 00:48:40,319 8 million gallons a day continuing to go 890 00:48:40,319 --> 00:48:45,270 to the south. 891 00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:48,640 Um, here's a snapshot of the timeline. 892 00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:51,520 The intent would be to try to get the 893 00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:54,640 these projects advertised in the fall 894 00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:57,839 and given a the contractors 895 00:48:57,839 --> 00:49:00,079 about a year year and a half of next 896 00:49:00,079 --> 00:49:02,640 year to start uh to be able to complete 897 00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:06,160 this. This project would the project 898 00:49:06,160 --> 00:49:08,480 will be broken up into two bids. one for 899 00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:10,480 the utility contractors for the force 900 00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:12,880 main and one for the facility 901 00:49:12,880 --> 00:49:19,589 contractors to build that lift station. 902 00:49:19,599 --> 00:49:23,040 So the next steps um are are to try to 903 00:49:23,040 --> 00:49:24,880 proceed and and get an acceptance, get 904 00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:26,960 an approval from council, I believe is 905 00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:28,480 my understanding what we're trying to 906 00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:30,960 achieve, and then proceed with the 907 00:49:30,960 --> 00:49:33,200 design of the changes and then move 908 00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:35,040 forward with the uh getting this 909 00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:38,319 advertised in the fall. 910 00:49:38,319 --> 00:49:40,000 >> Do we need both of these at the same 911 00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:40,559 time? 912 00:49:40,559 --> 00:49:41,040 >> We do not. 913 00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:41,920 >> South and the north. 914 00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:42,319 >> We do not. 915 00:49:42,319 --> 00:49:45,280 >> We need the south right away. Right. 916 00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:47,440 Yeah, the change if you don't mind going 917 00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:50,079 back to the the uh where it shows the 918 00:49:50,079 --> 00:49:53,280 two stations. 919 00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:56,240 >> The uh original plan when I came in was 920 00:49:56,240 --> 00:49:58,880 to build one massive lift station and 921 00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:01,440 force main on the south. Uh but that was 922 00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:04,079 assuming full build up for for the city. 923 00:50:04,079 --> 00:50:06,640 Market has taken a turn and just 924 00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:08,640 realized that is not quite financially 925 00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:11,359 feasible. So, the idea that we came up 926 00:50:11,359 --> 00:50:14,079 with was to break it up into two 927 00:50:14,079 --> 00:50:16,319 different smaller lift stations, right? 928 00:50:16,319 --> 00:50:17,920 Uh we're not saving any money. It's 929 00:50:17,920 --> 00:50:20,079 going to cost about the same, but it's 930 00:50:20,079 --> 00:50:22,960 more financially feasible because I 931 00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:24,480 don't have to come up with 30 $33 932 00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:26,240 million for one massive police station. 933 00:50:26,240 --> 00:50:28,000 I I only have to come up with half of 934 00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:30,240 that. And mo most of the growth that 935 00:50:30,240 --> 00:50:35,520 we're seeing in the city, it's happening uh over over in the north 936 00:50:35,520 --> 00:50:39,280 area here. So, we really need a a lift 937 00:50:39,280 --> 00:50:41,359 station here to be able to serve where 938 00:50:41,359 --> 00:50:43,760 the growth is happening. Now, in the 939 00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:45,599 future, what what this is what this is 940 00:50:45,599 --> 00:50:49,599 going to do is gonna free up uh capacity 941 00:50:49,599 --> 00:50:52,319 at the wastewater treatment plant. And 942 00:50:52,319 --> 00:50:54,319 we're also working on another project to 943 00:50:54,319 --> 00:50:56,800 be able to reduce the water info in 944 00:50:56,800 --> 00:50:59,280 infiltration into the the system so that 945 00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:01,119 we can also recover some of the lost 946 00:51:01,119 --> 00:51:04,559 capacity as well. And the second or the 947 00:51:04,559 --> 00:51:06,000 southern lift station is still going to 948 00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:07,520 have to be built, but it's going to 949 00:51:07,520 --> 00:51:09,680 allow us to be able to grow our tax base 950 00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:15,190 so that we can afford it in the future. 951 00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:16,880 » Correct. That is correct. 952 00:51:16,880 --> 00:51:17,359 >> Right away, 953 00:51:17,359 --> 00:51:17,920 >> correct? 954 00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:19,839 >> Eventually, you'll outgrow your 955 00:51:19,839 --> 00:51:22,160 treatment plant and you're surrounded by 956 00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:24,319 a flood plane where you can't expand 957 00:51:24,319 --> 00:51:27,040 that. You could, but it's very limited. 958 00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:29,200 And so, the the dollars to be able to 959 00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:31,680 invest in the treatment plan is just not 960 00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:34,480 feasible. instead of going regional with 961 00:51:34,480 --> 00:51:35,040 the 962 00:51:35,040 --> 00:51:36,880 >> eventually being a customer of the 963 00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:39,599 district is is the the goal. 964 00:51:39,599 --> 00:51:42,640 >> And and one thing that we will need to 965 00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:44,640 do as staff and council will need to 966 00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:46,319 approve. I know that we just went 967 00:51:46,319 --> 00:51:50,000 through a u impact fee study. Well, 968 00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:51,280 we're going to have to go we're going to 969 00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:53,280 have to revise it or amend it because 970 00:51:53,280 --> 00:51:55,920 the north lift station was not part of 971 00:51:55,920 --> 00:51:58,400 that uh study. So, we're just going to 972 00:51:58,400 --> 00:51:59,839 have to go ahead and add it and 973 00:51:59,839 --> 00:52:02,160 recalculate our impact fees so that we 974 00:52:02,160 --> 00:52:04,000 can utilize impact fee funds to be able 975 00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:06,880 to uh pay for some of it. I'm working on 976 00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:09,839 getting uh assistance grants uh from 977 00:52:09,839 --> 00:52:11,760 other places, but it's it's only going 978 00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:13,200 to get us so far. We're going to need to 979 00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:14,960 find other ways to be able to fund it as 980 00:52:14,960 --> 00:52:17,920 well. 981 00:52:17,920 --> 00:52:20,400 David Carr Ranch will still go down to 982 00:52:20,400 --> 00:52:22,079 the southern.
