[4:10] invite our community to participate. And
[4:12] so it's going to
[4:20] be a kidled uh market. As a matter of
[4:24] fact, one of our students uh homeschool
[4:26] students will be putting this event
[4:28] together. So, I'm here to get it going.
[4:30] I make you aware, but this student will
[4:33] be in charge of organizing it, dealing
[4:35] with our vendors and our if we if he
[4:39] decides to get sponsors or house,
[4:42] whatever he decides to do, the event
[4:44] will be put together by one of our uh
[4:46] the marketing as well by one of our
[4:48] students. So, I just wanted to make you
[4:50] aware of it because we're super excited.
[4:53] And we hope as you see it's that
[4:56] annual young entrepreneurs because we're
[5:00] homeschoolers but I do foresee it being
[5:03] open to just any young entrepreneurs in
[5:05] our city because we have participated in
[5:08] other children's market and it's just a
[5:11] super neat experience for children to be
[5:14] able to um promote their gifts, talents
[5:17] and it's it's very neat. So I think it's
[5:20] something that we really a lot of life
[5:23] to uh to our city. So, I'm excited about
[5:25] this. That's all I have for you. Thank
[5:27] you.
[5:35] » At this time, reports about community uh
[5:37] items of interest on which no action
[5:39] will be taken may be given to the public
[5:41] for chapter 551.0415
[5:44] of the government code. I know I don't
[5:48] see her normally lean on her. Uh we're
[5:50] having our chamber banquet um
[5:53] not this Friday but the next I'm not
[5:55] sure that date but it's going to be a
[5:57] week from Friday the 17th. Okay. Uh and
[6:00] that will be I believe at the Oasis over
[6:02] in Hartland. And so uh that's been a
[6:05] good event and uh if you are interested
[6:08] uh you can buy a table or come be a part
[6:10] of that. It should be a good night. Um
[6:14] I'm trying to think what else. David,
[6:15] can you think of anything the city has
[6:17] going coming up?
[6:24] » Okay.
[6:34] Anyone else? Anyone else have
[6:36] anything as far as community community
[6:39] interest?
[6:39] >> Yeah,
[6:42] you know, grass and weeds are starting
[6:44] to
[6:45] bring up neighbors helping neighbors.
[6:47] Yeah, you or anybody else in need of
[6:49] assistance mowing your yard, taking care
[6:51] of uh around your house, please reach
[6:54] out to Jason Brooks or the city or
[6:57] myself and we'll see what we can do to
[7:00] help you out there.
[7:02] Anyone else have anything?
[7:05] Okay, we'll move on to item number five,
[7:07] communications from mayor and council.
[7:09] uh receive council member requests for
[7:11] future agenda items, current and future
[7:13] items of community interest and other
[7:15] items of interest regarding the city of
[7:16] Crannle. Uh this is where if you would
[7:18] like to have an next agenda um for our
[7:22] meeting on May 20th, I'm sorry, April
[7:24] 20th, now would be the time to ask for
[7:26] that. So, did anyone have anything this
[7:28] evening?
[7:29] >> I have a few.
[7:30] >> Okay.
[7:32] start out with I was over at River Ridge
[7:35] at their new houses in that edition uh
[7:38] where they have their model homes. They
[7:40] have one empty lot that they would like
[7:42] to make a temporary parking lot. It kind
[7:44] of it's really dangerous pulling up down
[7:46] that street.
[7:49] Like to look see if we can award that or
[7:51] if not get it on the next
[8:00] And I would like uh
[8:03] I'd like to get requests that we look
[8:05] into time clocks for city hall and for
[8:09] our city employees like police
[8:10] department and stuff like that. So what
[8:12] the cost of that would be just to help
[8:15] out with tracking time.
[8:18] And then uh I'd also like to go ahead
[8:22] and request that we schedule for May 4th
[8:25] in executive session for our city uh
[8:28] managers uh quarterly review. Don't
[8:32] think we set that up yet. And I also
[8:34] would like to see if we can get the 360
[8:37] review out before that.
[8:43] And then also in that uh
[8:46] in that same executive sess, I would
[8:49] just like to put some on there for uh
[8:51] something about employee communications
[8:54] with the council.
[8:59] And then lastly, um our concrete gutters
[9:03] that we put in at the drainage, it's
[9:05] time to clean them. We can get that
[9:07] done.
[9:18] Okay,
[9:19] very good. We'll move on to item number
[9:20] six, updates and discussion by the city
[9:23] manager or staff. I'll have our city
[9:24] manager walk us through that.
[9:44] There you go. So, um the first update
[9:47] that I have for you tonight is
[9:53] if we can go to the next slide. There
[9:54] you go. Thank you. So, um I on our
[9:58] efforts on acquiring or applying for
[10:00] grants for the city. Uh we have applied
[10:04] for uh
[10:06] is just a a sample of what what we are
[10:09] trying to uh bring to the city. Uh the
[10:13] first one is so the earmark from our
[10:15] congressman I know that we attempted to
[10:18] apply for this last year and uh we were
[10:20] not successful but this year uh
[10:22] congressman has accepted our request is
[10:26] not what we were requesting last last
[10:28] year. Uh so congressman has accepted a
[10:30] request for an earmark of two and a $2.5
[10:33] million for the force main project. Now
[10:35] what this means is that now the
[10:37] congressman is going to go fight for for
[10:39] the city of Kandle to be able to get
[10:41] this approved uh through a review
[10:43] committee uh at a at a federal level. So
[10:47] um that is uh where that is. This is a
[10:50] great step in the right direction and uh
[10:52] we're very excited for this. This is
[10:54] going to help us get that uh uh lift
[10:57] station enforcement uh implemented and cons and constructed for to allow
[11:02] for are uh the expansion of the sewer
[11:04] capacity for the city. The next grant is
[11:08] the Texas Water uh development board
[11:11] clean water grant. This is a uh a
[11:15] request for $1.2 million. And we
[11:19] submitted this grant, completed the
[11:20] application. It was a very lengthy
[11:22] application. Uh we have made it through
[11:25] some steps in the grant process. Uh by
[11:27] this point 80% of the applications have
[11:30] been either kicked out or denied. So
[11:33] we're in the 20th percentile. So uh
[11:36] we're going to keep pushing forward and
[11:39] hopefully uh we'll be able to get this
[11:40] additional funding. This is also um we
[11:45] will utilize these funds to uh
[11:46] contribute the building of a force main
[11:49] and lift station. Um we have also
[11:51] applied for an EPA water tech grant. Uh
[11:54] EPA has accepted a request for
[11:56] assistance on the force main project. Uh
[11:58] what EPA is going to do for the city is
[12:00] going to fully fund the pre-engineering
[12:03] all the way up to the design phase uh
[12:05] and environmental for the project and
[12:08] there is no matching contribution for
[12:10] this. So the engineering and the
[12:12] environmental all that cost four
[12:15] $500,000 then the EPA will cover it uh
[12:18] 100%.
[12:19] Um, we've we have also applied for a
[12:22] cyber security grant. Uh, we submitted
[12:24] the application. They came back and
[12:26] asked for additional information. We
[12:28] receive uh some help from our IT uh
[12:31] person that we contract for the city and
[12:34] we answer all of their questions. So, at
[12:36] this point, we're just waiting to hear
[12:37] back. For this grant, we applied for
[12:39] $56,000. This one does have a matching
[12:42] contribution, which I believe, if I
[12:43] remember correctly, is about $15,000,
[12:46] but it's definitely worth it. This is
[12:47] going to help us secure the city u from
[12:51] ransomware attacks and just be able to
[12:54] avoid that. I've lived through a cyber
[12:56] attack at another city where I've worked
[12:58] and I do not wish that on anybody. It
[12:59] was a nightmare. Um and the last one is
[13:03] uh also a Texas Waterboard grant and
[13:05] this is to replace asbestous water
[13:08] lines. The city has requested $2.7
[13:10] million and we're also waiting to hear
[13:12] back. This is one that I'm hopeful that
[13:14] uh they'll be able to approve for for
[13:16] the city.
[13:19] Um and that is the up now. Um this last
[13:22] week, I believe it was LA last week, we
[13:24] had the opportunity to meet with Texot
[13:27] and a few other uh stakeholders in the
[13:29] community to discuss the service roads
[13:31] going in one direction.
[13:34] Basically the point that we were trying
[13:35] to make is that if we make boat boat
[13:37] service roads go in one direction it
[13:40] will create a traffic jam uh at the
[13:43] intersection of 148 and 175. So we were
[13:46] looking for alternatives to be able to
[13:48] leave at the very least a section going
[13:51] two-way. So this is what text that and
[13:54] the city and the other stakeholders have
[13:57] agreed and this is how
[13:59] and I'm going to try to describe this uh
[14:02] very uh carefully for uh the people that
[14:04] are not seeing me point this this laser.
[14:07] So the north service road 175 this
[14:11] service road is going to stay is going
[14:13] to go one way. This is going to be
[14:15] switched uh the time from Texas probably
[14:18] this summer. Uh the one thing that we
[14:20] did request is that we try and do it
[14:22] when school is not in in in session.
[14:24] That way they have time to educate the
[14:26] parents. And so this line uh orange line
[14:31] all the way up to here is going to go in
[14:33] one direction. The blue dotted line is
[14:36] going to remain two-way on the south
[14:39] side. So it will be from uh 748.
[14:45] This section of the service road will
[14:47] remain
[14:49] And this is just this will ensure that
[14:52] citizens uh and just people who drive
[14:54] through Crannle have another way in and
[14:57] out of the city to avoid uh traffic
[15:00] congestion.
[15:03] Yes.
[15:05] Maybe prior to this happening,
[15:08] you know, if this is going to happen
[15:10] this summer, we need to start getting
[15:11] the word out now. Uh either through
[15:14] social media, through the city's
[15:17] website.
[15:18] So we don't take a lot of people by
[15:19] surprise. So
[15:22] >> I mean I start start the learning
[15:25] process now
[15:27] process
[15:28] >> and uh that is a discussion that we had
[15:29] with uh text. Text will help advertise
[15:33] this and uh it will be a collaborative
[15:34] effort between text the city the school
[15:36] district uh even our police department.
[15:39] We will advertise this change before it
[15:41] happens. And uh
[15:42] >> I mean even to the point of sending
[15:44] stuff home through the students to the
[15:46] parents and maybe we can reach out to
[15:48] the school district see if they could
[15:50] help.
[15:50] >> Yes. Yeah. We will definitely make sure
[15:52] we make a big communicate out this out
[15:55] to the the citizens
[16:01] » once the bypass was open and it went one
[16:02] way they would do do a traffic. That's
[16:04] my question too. That's what's
[16:06] >> So that is a great question and tax do
[16:09] in order from what we were told at the
[16:12] last meeting that we had in order for
[16:13] them to be able to add turn uh uh stop
[16:16] lights signals uh they need to have turn
[16:19] lanes. Uh they can only add those if
[16:21] there are turn lanes. Now at the
[16:23] intersection of 148 and 175 there's a
[16:26] developer that is taking on the
[16:28] financial burden to add which that comes
[16:32] with uh traffic traffic lights and uh
[16:36] we're hoping that Texas will approve or
[16:39] bless their proposal and their design so
[16:42] that we can get u stop lightss at that
[16:45] intersection.
[16:50] majority of the accidents at that yield
[16:52] sign. Yes.
[16:53] >> But there's still plenty of accidents at
[16:54] yield sign on this side and we're
[16:56] leaving it two direction. So
[16:57] >> yeah,
[17:02] » at some point when Eagle Crest Eagle
[17:04] Crest Parkway is actually built that bottom side will flip one way, but
[17:09] you just can't have everybody on the
[17:10] south side of town
[17:11] >> Yeah.
[17:12] >> not be able to get onto that 741 bridge.
[17:15] Uh
[17:16] >> so that's that's the reason for leaving
[17:18] it two-way.
[17:20] and stop lights would alleviate some of
[17:22] that traffic.
[17:25] >> Very good. Yes,
[17:26] >> the inconsistency.
[17:29] >> Yeah.
[17:33] If we can go to the next stop
[17:35] forever.
[17:38] >> Okay. And to give you an update on the
[17:39] audit, uh the audit is nearly completed.
[17:42] We're wrapping up the last few details
[17:45] and items. Um the expectation is to have
[17:50] this presented or for the auditor to
[17:52] come out and present their findings on
[17:54] the April 20th agenda or upcoming
[17:57] council agenda and it will be the same
[18:00] as last year. So I am uh I wanted to um
[18:04] praise our staff who have been working
[18:06] diligently. I know uh Miss Karen has
[18:09] just joined the city in the last three
[18:11] four months and she's taken on a big
[18:13] task uh taking on the audit and it's uh
[18:16] it's I know because I went through it
[18:18] last year and I know how much work work
[18:20] it is and uh she's been uh amazing at uh
[18:23] she's require very little to no help uh
[18:26] to be able to get it completed and
[18:28] forward for the auditors to come uh the
[18:30] next council meeting so that we can put
[18:32] it to rest and switch gears into budget.
[18:37] I would like to extend an invitation to
[18:39] all of council. Um there is a a uh Texas
[18:43] municipal town that will take place on
[18:46] May 21st and 22nd uh in Bassrop. I had
[18:51] the opportunity to attend the small uh
[18:53] city conference TML conference. It's not
[18:55] like anywhere near close as the big TML
[18:59] conference that happens in October. Um
[19:01] this is forations
[19:04] of 15,000 or less. I attended
[19:08] last year and it was a great experience.
[19:11] I I could relate better to those
[19:14] attending. Uh it was mostly elected
[19:16] officials. I'm going to be honest
[19:18] because some of these towns uh they
[19:19] don't have a staff like we do in
[19:21] inrandle
[19:23] and uh just hearing their stories and
[19:25] you know some of the struggles that some of their growing pains that they're
[19:29] going through uh they're going to sound
[19:31] very familiar if if you guys have the
[19:33] opportunity to uh attend this u so I
[19:36] just wanted to extend the invitation to
[19:38] everybody this is a great uh conference
[19:40] to to attend they have great speakers
[19:42] too um I do have uh well before I move
[19:46] to uh my last two items. Do you guys
[19:49] Does the council have any questions or
[19:51] comments uh on anything that I presented
[19:53] so far?
[19:57] >> Very good. And uh the mayor bit me to
[19:59] it. So I did have an update uh to remind
[20:02] everybody about the uh uh Crandle
[20:05] Chamber of Commerce uh banquet. So it
[20:08] will be on Friday uh April 17th at 6:30
[20:11] at the Oasis in Hartland. I hope uh we
[20:13] can see you all there. if you wouldn't
[20:15] mind just confirming your attendance
[20:17] with Miss Aberina so that uh we know how
[20:21] many seats we need to purchase. Um you
[20:24] can bring your significant other. Uh
[20:26] everybody's uh and the council is
[20:28] welcome to attend. And I also want to uh
[20:32] give our new public director an
[20:34] opportunity.
[20:36] Today was his first day. So this has
[20:38] been a marathon for him since he got
[20:40] here in the morning and and he has to
[20:41] stay for council meeting. So, uh, his
[20:43] name is Clayton, and I'll give him a
[20:45] couple of minutes for him to introduce
[20:47] himself to to the council.
[20:57] » For sure. Yeah.
[21:00] Well, I'm I've already I'm already
[21:02] beat to that, so we're I'm starting with
[21:05] no hair, so that's that's good. My name
[21:08] is Clayton Dickerson. Um, I uh I have
[21:13] of starting today. Um it's been a great
[21:15] first day. Um, you know, the before I
[21:18] start talking about myself, I I will um
[21:20] assure the council that um you know, one
[21:23] of the things that stood out today was
[21:25] the organization and um you know, the
[21:29] what I've seen obviously in eight hours
[21:32] of of working my first day. Um I
[21:34] couldn't have started at a better city
[21:36] that had, you know, very good
[21:38] organization and cleanliness and um
[21:40] seems like a very good running staff. So
[21:43] again, this is my first day, but uh you
[21:46] know, I from what I've seen, I I've I've
[21:48] worked previously at the city of Walks
[21:50] Hatchee in the city of Venice, um
[21:52] Gastonia Scurry and as well as
[21:54] Beckerhiba Water Supply, which is where
[21:56] I come from. I've been doing this since
[21:58] I was 18 years old. Um you know, this is
[22:01] all I know is uh public works, water and
[22:04] sewer, and so on and so forth. So, you
[22:06] know, I I I just want to thank you guys
[22:08] for giving me the opportunity to be here
[22:09] tonight. Um, and to come on board as
[22:12] your public works director. Um, and like
[22:15] I said, I'm going to do everything I can
[22:16] to pick up where Brad left off. And I'm
[22:19] more than lucky to already know Brad um
[22:22] before I started here. And just to have
[22:24] him here for a couple weeks before he
[22:26] retires officially um is going to be my
[22:28] biggest benefit. So, thank you guys. Um,
[22:31] I look forward to hopefully many years
[22:33] to serve you.
[22:36] All right. Thank you. Thank you.
[22:43] » Reminded that I missed a couple of
[22:44] bullet points on on my updates. Um, so I also wanted to let the council know
[22:49] that as part of our uh efforts to
[22:52] improve efficiency and the systems that
[22:54] we use uh in code for the court system
[22:58] uh we had our initial kickoff meeting uh
[23:00] this month and that is well underway and
[23:04] uh it's going to take uh if I remember
[23:06] correctly the lady that is going to help
[23:08] us with implementation mentioned that it
[23:10] will take uh around four to six months
[23:13] depending on how diligently we work on
[23:16] the implementation and also another
[23:19] system implementation that we're having
[23:21] is with IT works. So I works is a system
[23:24] used for permitting code enforcement uh
[23:26] planning and zoning uh those type of
[23:29] city functions and we're going to be
[23:32] implementing that. that implementation
[23:33] is not going to take as long. Uh the uh
[23:35] implementing team, we're going to have
[23:37] our first kickoff meeting uh first week
[23:40] in May and it should take about 60 days
[23:43] to have that implemented which is going
[23:45] to greatly improve the efficiency in
[23:47] that department. Thank you.
[23:56] Seven, we got two uh proclamations and
[24:00] uh I'll come down and do those. The
[24:01] first one uh will be for uh our public
[24:04] works director and then we'll have a
[24:05] proclamation for child abuse prevention
[24:07] month. So I'll come do those and tell
[24:09] you what Brad, if you want to make your
[24:11] way up here.

[28:22] symptoms.
[28:30] I encourage all to learn more about the
[28:32] aspects of our community.
[28:40] Together we create a broader future for
[28:41] our children.
[28:49] Therefore, I David Mayor City,
[28:58] Texas.
[29:45] County is a rural little county where
[29:47] nothing bad ever happens. Uh
[29:49] unfortunately growth is changing that.
[29:51] But um we do have a lot of need in
[29:54] Coffin County. And so if you would like
[29:56] to get involved in helping our kids, uh
[29:58] there's there's plenty of need. So I
[30:00] would encourage you to to do that. So
[30:03] all right, we'll move on to item number
[30:04] eight, the consent agenda. all of the
[30:06] following items on the consent agenda.
[30:09] I'm going to skip that paragraph. We
[30:10] have four items on the consent agenda
[30:12] this evening. Item A is to consider an
[30:14] act on approval of city council minutes
[30:16] from March the 2nd, 2026.
[30:21] Item B, that's right, we had that that
[30:24] little special meeting. Item B, consider
[30:27] and act on approval of city council
[30:28] minutes from March 24th, 2026. Uh item
[30:33] C, consider an act on approving
[30:34] resolution number 04062026,
[30:38] authorizing membership in the Atmas City
[30:40] Steering Committee and authorizing the
[30:42] payment of 4 cents per capita uh to the
[30:44] Atmas City Steering Comm uh committee to
[30:47] fund regulatory and related activities
[30:49] uh related to the Atmas Energy
[30:51] Corporation. And then item D, consider
[30:53] an act on approving resolution number 04
[30:56] 062026A
[30:59] adopting an electronic signature and
[31:01] electronic seal policy uh providing for
[31:03] related matters and providing an
[31:05] effective date. Uh you should have a
[31:07] copy of those minutes in your packets.
[31:09] Uh hopefully you've had a chance to
[31:10] review those. Um
[31:13] David, I don't I don't need you to say a
[31:15] whole lot, but that the atmosphering,
[31:17] this is something we do. We partner with
[31:18] other communities. Uh we we renew this
[31:21] every year and it's we're part of a
[31:24] group that that acts on our behalf to
[31:26] try to keep our our rates down with
[31:27] Atmas and and negotiate with them. Uh
[31:30] that's item C. And then item D. Um I
[31:33] read through a little bit of that. Why
[31:35] don't you give us just some of the you
[31:37] know I know these are for items less
[31:38] than $100,000. Um give us some of the
[31:41] guard rails I'll say on on what this
[31:43] electronic signature policy will have.
[31:48] And I don't mean to put you on the spot.
[31:53] » Yeah. So, basically what it is is just
[31:56] to be able to modernize
[31:58] uh our efforts. Uh right now the way
[32:01] that city secretary is essentially
[32:03] putting a seal or approving any official
[32:06] records for the city. She's doing all of
[32:07] that manually. Literally putting a a
[32:10] stamp on a document for any ordinance or
[32:12] anything that is approved by the uh by
[32:15] the city council. So what this will
[32:17] allow this will allow city secretary to
[32:19] be able to do some of those same
[32:21] functions but electronically.
[32:26] » For example would be ordinance
[32:28] resolutions um contracts
[32:32] um and
[32:35] minutes from my understanding. Sorry, I
[32:37] don't have the policy in front of me.
[32:39] Um, but it would allow that. And um, I'm
[32:42] working with Molita on finalizing the
[32:45] electronic city seal to be able to um,
[32:49] allow to utilize that because as David
[32:51] mentioned, I use a stamped one
[32:53] currently. Um, so in the event it better
[32:56] helps um, signatures if in the absence
[32:59] of anybody and I can send those
[33:00] electronically.
[33:02] >> So you're not just trying to write
[33:03] yourself checks?
[33:04] >> No. Okay. [laughter]
[33:07] All right. Anybody have any questions on
[33:08] any of the any of the four items under
[33:10] the consent agenda?
[33:13] >> Approve
[33:15] item C and D and abstain from A and B.
[33:18] >> Okay.
[33:23] I've got a motion to approve and your
[33:25] abstension will be during the vote.
[33:26] Correct?
[33:30] » If his motion includes
[33:33] >> the items A and B on the minutes.
[33:35] >> Okay. So,
[33:36] >> somebody needs to approve, Andy.
[33:38] >> Yeah, I've got a motion on C and D. Can
[33:40] I Can I get a second on that? I got a
[33:42] second on that. Um, can we do two
[33:44] separate votes? Is that okay? Correct.
[33:46] >> Okay. So, let's take the vote on C and
[33:48] D. All those in favor?
[33:50] Okay. Now, if I can get a motion on
[33:52] items A and B. I've got a motion from
[33:55] Adam
[33:56] >> and a second from Caleb. All those in
[33:58] favor? Okay. And uh abstaining be Scott.
[34:02] Okay. All right. Very good. Let's move
[34:03] on to item number nine. uh presentation
[34:06] by Shawnberg and Pulk. Uh the
[34:07] engineering regarding the south streets
[34:09] and drainage rehabilitation for the city
[34:11] of Crannle
[34:23] manager.
[34:37] My name is Matt Alonzo. Um, good to see
[34:38] you folks again. I'm from Shamburg and
[34:40] Poke and we're here to talk about the
[34:42] South Street and drainage improvements
[34:44] uh just north of us or actually south of
[34:46] us.
[34:48] Um this evening I'm just going to talk
[34:50] about um the project location, discuss
[34:52] the existing conditions, some proposed
[34:55] um some proposed so proposed
[34:57] improvements we're going to do and the
[34:59] schematic costs
[35:04] as you see here. Uh I'm trying to Okay,
[35:07] so the city of Cranle's there in the
[35:08] star. The the streets highlighted in
[35:11] magenta, that's considered our north
[35:14] streets on the bottom there and the gold
[35:16] golden rod, that's considered our south
[35:18] streets.
[35:21] The next slide here, we're just taking a
[35:22] closer look at the north streets between
[35:24] Maro and Maui. Um we didn't um we
[35:27] decided not to do improvements in this
[35:30] location because currently you folks
[35:31] have a contract for um improvements on
[35:34] Maui Street here which is the um is
[35:37] going to be a concrete pavement um curb
[35:40] and gutter with a closed storm drainage
[35:43] uh system. So because of those
[35:45] improvements, we s we thought that the
[35:47] benefit would be better observed in the
[35:49] south the south streets
[35:52] and as you can see here in the in the
[35:53] yellow or golden rod. Uh this is the map
[35:57] just tilted on its side. Um the reason
[35:59] for this map is because um currently you
[36:03] folks have a drainage system that's in
[36:05] this red line that runs from north to
[36:08] south on First Street and there's a 42
[36:11] inch um reinforced concrete outfall
[36:13] there. So this project in the south is
[36:16] to utilize um that drainage improvement
[36:19] and um we wanted to include in improve
[36:23] the drainage on church and vansston as
[36:27] well as Gleon um connecting to in the
[36:30] next slide it'll show you what we're
[36:31] connecting to these um drop inlets. So
[36:34] all of those at each of those cross
[36:36] streets we have these drop inlets and
[36:39] their proposed improvements are going to
[36:40] connect to this existing feature there.
[36:49] Okay. So, uh this is just an existing
[36:51] view of the pavement on church. Um as
[36:54] you can see, I'm just going to go
[36:55] through these slides. Um it's a asphalt
[36:57] pavement which is about 20 ft wide with
[36:59] bar ditches.
[37:10] Okay. This is another view on Vansston.
[37:13] Again, you can see that the
[37:14] deterioration of the pavement here. This
[37:15] is again a 20 foot wide asphalt pavement
[37:18] with um sorry, my hands are a little um
[37:22] with the bar ditches as you can see with
[37:24] standing water here.
[37:26] Uh this is on um Second Street between
[37:30] Church and Vanson. This is uh Second
[37:33] Street between Vansston and Gleon. And
[37:35] then this is a view of Gleon after
[37:38] Brookures.
[37:40] So currently on South Main Street, you
[37:42] folks have a um as um Scott Rogers
[37:46] mentioned that you had these concrete
[37:48] gutters here. Um and this is just a
[37:50] closer view of what that looks like.
[37:52] It's a full concrete. It almost looks
[37:54] like a concrete channel. What we're
[37:56] proposing is to do and to save some
[37:58] money is to propose um a concrete flume
[38:01] here which is about 2 feet wide with um
[38:04] grass slopes at 4:1.
[38:07] So I just wanted to show part of the
[38:09] proposed improvements here. This is the
[38:11] first picture on church
[38:16] and you'll see that um this one here and
[38:18] the proposed improvements is going to in
[38:20] increase the lane width to 11 ft. So
[38:23] instead of 20 feet of asphalt, it's
[38:25] going to be 22 feet of asphalt with the
[38:28] um the grass shoulders with a two foot
[38:30] wide concrete V channel. This is another
[38:33] picture of um Danston.
[38:38] So you'll see that this is a 22 foot
[38:40] wide um asphalt pavement with some grass
[38:42] shoulders and the two foot wide concrete
[38:44] um V channel.
[38:49] This is on First Street.
[38:52] I like this picture because it shows you
[38:53] at the driveway connections. We're going
[38:55] to be improving the driveways as well as
[38:57] putting um an 18inch reinforced concrete
[38:59] pipe with uh concrete headers. This is
[39:02] another view of um Second Street just a
[39:05] little north. Again, you'll see that.
[39:07] And then this is Gleman.
[39:13] So with what we are proposing are for
[39:16] the main bid for the Texas um CDBG grant
[39:20] uh is highlighted in this golden rod um
[39:22] streets. This is Church and Bansen. Um
[39:24] the total cost for these um streets is
[39:28] about $68,000.
[39:30] Um this next slide I'm going to show
[39:31] you. These are the bid alternatives. So
[39:34] that's the alternative one connecting
[39:35] the two two streets, Vansston and
[39:37] Church. the second alternative, third
[39:40] and fourth.
[39:47] And this is just a summary of a
[39:50] preliminary cost of these improvements.
[39:52] So again, this is $68,000.
[39:55] Um, and the overall total is about short
[39:57] of $1.2 million. And so, um, just today,
[40:00] I just wanted to present that to you
[40:01] folks to describe what the South Street
[40:03] and drainage improvements would be, um,
[40:05] for this CDBG project. And I know I saw
[40:09] you folks um the last panel was here. I
[40:11] just wanted to remind you folks that
[40:12] this is our commitment to provide the
[40:14] service to you all. And um as you have
[40:18] any questions
[40:21] is there way out different concrete
[40:24] plume and the paving for street.
[40:27] >> We currently do that. We do have that.
[40:29] >> So you're giving us like alternate to
[40:31] you give us one price. is I'm looking
[40:34] that if if we can't afford to do the
[40:36] asphalt pavement, what if we go ahead
[40:38] and do the concrete plume? Now,
[40:39] >> we do have the price broken out. Um, we
[40:42] do do have bid items items for that.
[40:44] >> That's
[40:49] Hold on, Mike. I'm going to I'm going to
[40:51] use Brad since I can't use him very much
[40:53] longer. Is this I mean, you're as
[40:54] familiar with this as anybody. The these
[40:56] flumes and I know you obviously you're
[40:58] familiar with what we did down here. Is
[41:00] that gonna I'm just asking you because
[41:02] you know is that going to work what
[41:04] what's what we're looking at here.
[41:40] require
[41:45] some of
[42:00] finish off.
[42:10] » Okay.
[42:13] So, this
[42:17] I know it all ties together. Uh,
[42:20] but what we're looking at tonight ties
[42:22] into what we did on Maine. It helps
[42:25] continue that process. I'll say
[42:38] those streets.
[42:51] » Yeah.
[43:09] » yeah. And if you drive through there
[43:10] when it rains or after it rains and you
[43:12] can drive through most of downtown
[43:14] unfortunately, but but over in that area
[43:16] it's it's pretty bad in some places.
[43:18] >> Yeah. And the concrete will just keep it
[43:20] from settling.
[43:21] >> Yeah. It might hold water while it's
[43:23] raining or right after it rains, but it
[43:25] it'll dry out a lot better than
[43:28] >> the best way to do it would be total
[43:29] underground system, but that's
[43:31] astronomical impress.
[43:35] » All right. Any any questions?
[43:37] >> Do have one more. Um, have we
[43:40] >> Oh, sorry, Mr. SL. Go ahead, Scott.
[43:42] >> Have we verified that the 48 inch at the
[43:44] end of that is the rack capacity and
[43:47] we're not overfilling that? When we do
[43:49] when we enter the design process, we
[43:51] will have to consider that.
[43:54] >> Yes sir.
[44:11] Yes. Um so currently um because this is
[44:13] a preliminary cost we do have
[44:14] contingency but as we enter into the um
[44:18] design and get to the final design then
[44:20] we we naturally turn into a well we we
[44:23] shrink that contingency because of the
[44:24] unknowns are a little bit better known
[44:27] and then any leftover money we turn into
[44:29] an owner's allowance
[44:34] that that's
[44:37] >> that's that's set up at the front and
[44:39] what we are being contracted
[44:42] Um,
[44:44] not that number, but yeah,
[44:48] » those are construction costs. Yeah.
[44:50] So, but I just I'll just say it
[44:54] for the record. Our engineering cost is
[44:56] to to design the full um system as you
[44:59] saw in the south streets even though you
[45:01] may only construct just church and vans.
[45:03] >> Sure.
[45:07] » Any other questions?
[45:10] All right. Thank you, sir. Appreciate
[45:11] it.
[45:14] All right, we'll move on to item 10. Uh,
[45:16] item number 10, a presentation by
[45:17] Burkoff, Hendricks, and Carter regarding
[45:19] the new force main project.
[45:23] » Good afternoon, mayor, council members.
[45:26] And Burkoff, Hendricks, and Carter. And
[45:29] let me turn this.
[45:34] Okay.
[45:37] So, um, currently what you have is a
[45:39] lift station that that's under proposed,
[45:41] as you all know, a lift station down at
[45:43] the wastewater treatment plant with a
[45:44] force main that's going to be parallel
[45:47] to the Eagle Crest all the way to the
[45:50] North Texas Municipal Water District's
[45:52] lower east fork interceptor system, the
[45:56] Leis that we're going to connect and and
[45:58] u we had been asked by city staff to
[46:00] revisit that, reook at um due to the the growth projections and the patterns
[46:06] concerns. We've been asked to go ahead
[46:08] and look at it to see what is there
[46:10] another feasible opportunity to be able
[46:12] to maximize those dollars, make it more
[46:14] financially feasible for the city. And
[46:17] we've uh vetted that with city staff. We
[46:19] met several times, did some workshop
[46:22] meetings, uh looked at all the
[46:23] projections costs timewise, and we came
[46:27] up with this alternate, which
[46:29] surprisingly was the original one, but
[46:32] instead of having two, one lift station,
[46:35] we broke it up into having a north and
[46:37] having a south lift station. So that as
[46:40] you have the the growth that is coming
[46:42] in now, uh that would be conveyed to
[46:45] this north lift station and then be able
[46:47] to be conveyed over to the left to be
[46:50] able to to start into the regional
[46:53] system if you may. Um, so the blue
[46:57] lines, the blue box, that would be the
[46:59] north infrastructure and the red box and
[47:02] the red line that would continue to stay
[47:05] as the the southern lift station,
[47:07] southern infrastructure.
[47:10] Some of the work can still remain a as
[47:12] you see where those two lines combine
[47:14] going west. The city has already
[47:17] approached property owners as you may
[47:19] already know. So that that that
[47:21] alignment, those easements, those are
[47:24] still good. uh and useful, but
[47:26] everything to the east um would have to
[47:29] start again from from new. Um the city
[47:31] staff has also been approaching the that
[47:34] we understand um has been approaching
[47:37] the the property owners where this new
[47:39] north lift station would be. So there's
[47:42] some some incentives for that. So the
[47:44] city communications are ongoing on that.
[47:52] So what we did is we we broke up the
[47:55] north projections and the southern
[47:56] projections time-wise. And we know that
[47:59] this is a a lot of numbers here, but
[48:02] basically on the left is is all the
[48:04] developments that are going into the
[48:06] northern lift station. And then we have
[48:08] about 4,300 uh lots that would be
[48:11] conveying that influent to the north
[48:13] lift station.
[48:18] This cost is a breakdown comparing the
[48:20] north and the southern lift station.
[48:22] Initially, we had the 13 million gallons
[48:24] a day infrastructure on the south. And
[48:27] so now, by breaking it up, we we're able
[48:29] to account for about approximately 5
[48:33] million gallons a day of effing going on
[48:35] the north and then leaving the remainder
[48:38] 8 million gallons a day continuing to go
[48:40] to the south.
[48:45] Um, here's a snapshot of the timeline.
[48:48] The intent would be to try to get the
[48:51] these projects advertised in the fall
[48:54] and given a the contractors
[48:57] about a year year and a half of next
[49:00] year to start uh to be able to complete
[49:02] this. This project would the project
[49:06] will be broken up into two bids. one for
[49:08] the utility contractors for the force
[49:10] main and one for the facility
[49:12] contractors to build that lift station.
[49:19] So the next steps um are are to try to
[49:23] proceed and and get an acceptance, get
[49:24] an approval from council, I believe is
[49:26] my understanding what we're trying to
[49:28] achieve, and then proceed with the
[49:30] design of the changes and then move
[49:33] forward with the uh getting this
[49:35] advertised in the fall.
[49:38] >> Do we need both of these at the same
[49:40] time?
[49:40] >> We do not.
[49:41] >> South and the north.
[49:41] >> We do not.
[49:42] >> We need the south right away. Right.
[49:45] Yeah, the change if you don't mind going
[49:47] back to the the uh where it shows the
[49:50] two stations.
[49:53] >> The uh original plan when I came in was
[49:56] to build one massive lift station and
[49:58] force main on the south. Uh but that was
[50:01] assuming full build up for for the city.
[50:04] Market has taken a turn and just
[50:06] realized that is not quite financially
[50:08] feasible. So, the idea that we came up
[50:11] with was to break it up into two
[50:14] different smaller lift stations, right?
[50:16] Uh we're not saving any money. It's
[50:17] going to cost about the same, but it's
[50:20] more financially feasible because I
[50:22] don't have to come up with 30 $33
[50:24] million for one massive police station.
[50:26] I I only have to come up with half of
[50:28] that. And mo most of the growth that
[50:30] we're seeing in the city, it's happening uh over over in the north
[50:35] area here. So, we really need a a lift
[50:39] station here to be able to serve where
[50:41] the growth is happening. Now, in the
[50:43] future, what what this is what this is
[50:45] going to do is gonna free up uh capacity
[50:49] at the wastewater treatment plant. And
[50:52] we're also working on another project to
[50:54] be able to reduce the water info in
[50:56] infiltration into the the system so that
[50:59] we can also recover some of the lost
[51:01] capacity as well. And the second or the
[51:04] southern lift station is still going to
[51:06] have to be built, but it's going to
[51:07] allow us to be able to grow our tax base
[51:09] so that we can afford it in the future.
[51:15] » Correct. That is correct.
[51:16] >> Right away,
[51:17] >> correct?
[51:17] >> Eventually, you'll outgrow your
[51:19] treatment plant and you're surrounded by
[51:22] a flood plane where you can't expand
[51:24] that. You could, but it's very limited.
[51:27] And so, the the dollars to be able to
[51:29] invest in the treatment plan is just not
[51:31] feasible. instead of going regional with
[51:34] the
[51:35] >> eventually being a customer of the
[51:36] district is is the the goal.
[51:39] >> And and one thing that we will need to
[51:42] do as staff and council will need to
[51:44] approve. I know that we just went
[51:46] through a u impact fee study. Well,
[51:50] we're going to have to go we're going to
[51:51] have to revise it or amend it because
[51:53] the north lift station was not part of
[51:55] that uh study. So, we're just going to
[51:58] have to go ahead and add it and
[51:59] recalculate our impact fees so that we
[52:02] can utilize impact fee funds to be able
[52:04] to uh pay for some of it. I'm working on
[52:06] getting uh assistance grants uh from
[52:09] other places, but it's it's only going
[52:11] to get us so far. We're going to need to
[52:13] find other ways to be able to fund it as
[52:14] well.
[52:17] David Carr Ranch will still go down to
[52:20] the southern. I know they're on the
[52:22] north side of the highway, but they're going to go down to our current
[52:25] like they would they would use the north
[52:27] lift station.
[52:28] >> They they wouldn't. Yeah. Carpite Ranch
[52:30] will still go down to the wastewater
[52:32] treatment plant and then eventually when
[52:34] the lift station is built on the south,
[52:35] it will get it'll go there. Correct.
[52:38] Yeah.
[52:39] >> Is there any This is not tied to this
[52:41] specifically.
[52:42] Anybody in here that might know, um, is
[52:45] there any idea on where the new
[52:49] the big North Texas uh,
[52:52] plant is going to be? Have they figured
[52:55] out a site yet for that?
[52:57] >> So, they they have plants. They're going
[52:58] to expand it.
[53:01] >> Yeah, but I thought they were putting in
[53:02] a new
[53:03] >> They're bu building one in the in the
[53:04] region. And uh there are uh they haven't
[53:07] officially announced where I mean but if
[53:10] we connect the dots uh we kind of have a
[53:12] idea of of where it's going to be built
[53:15] uh just from conversation that I've had
[53:16] with other cities and other uh
[53:18] stakeholders in the area.
[53:20] >> Okay.
[53:22] Very good.
[53:23] >> Which it's in the direction that we're
[53:25] putting our forcements towards. So yeah,
[53:29] >> which is a yes.
[53:32] It would really suck if they built in
[53:34] the in the opposite direction.
[53:36] >> Yeah.
[53:37] >> All right. Any other questions on this?
[53:40] I I think it's a good idea. I think it's
[53:43] a good way to go. I thank you guys for
[53:44] putting that together.
[53:46] >> Well, we we'll keep going and we'll keep
[53:48] you posted of all the progress through David.
[53:51] >> Okay.
[53:51] >> Thank you.
[53:52] >> All right. Thank you, sir.
[53:54] >> All right. We'll move on to item number
[53:56] 11, a presentation by Kimley Horn
[53:58] regarding the Eagle Crest Plan
[53:59] Development Commercial Signage Amendment
[54:01] Request.
[54:03] We have anyone here from Kimley Hornton?
[54:14] » Hi y'all. Uh my name is Mike Feather.
[54:16] I'm with Kimley Horn.
[54:18] So
[54:20] I am here today to talk I guess we'll
[54:22] start with the first item. I'm here
[54:24] today to talk about the uh Riveridge
[54:26] plan development uh district the zoning.
[54:29] So, I'm here on behalf of uh JWS Land.
[54:32] Um they are proposing a current
[54:35] amendment to the existing zoning that is
[54:37] in place for the Riveridge PD. Um as you
[54:39] guys know, it kind of encapsules a lot
[54:41] of the residential portion and there's a
[54:43] commercial piece along 175 on the west
[54:46] side of town. So, um what we proposed
[54:49] here along it is Walmart and alongside
[54:51] with JWS. Um with the commercial
[54:54] development that is planned to happen in
[54:56] this area, um you're seeing a lot of
[54:58] need for signage along the highway. Um
[55:01] our goal here today and regarding both
[55:03] of these proposed amendments is related
[55:06] to um a type of mixed use or a type of
[55:09] multi-tenant signage that is allowed
[55:11] along the highway. With the way that the
[55:13] current sign ordinance is allowed, um
[55:16] there isn't a stipulation for
[55:18] multi-tenant signage. Um, and that kind
[55:20] of it causes tenants to come in, put in
[55:24] their own sign, and then you've got a
[55:25] bunch of different signs leading up
[55:26] along the highway. Um, what we're
[55:28] proposing here, um, you can see this is
[55:31] what Walmart is currently proposing for
[55:34] their property on the north side of 175.
[55:37] There is also, um, some signage that is
[55:41] proposed along 741.
[55:44] at these two locations. Um if 175 is on
[55:47] the left side of this screen, um you can
[55:49] see there's multi-tenant signage planned
[55:51] at the corner of Spring Creek and 175 is
[55:54] shown in blue and then the other side of
[55:57] Spring Creek and 741 shown in blue on
[56:00] the north side. So, um to give you guys
[56:03] an idea of what this signage would look
[56:04] like, um
[56:07] this is what's kind of being proposed uh
[56:09] along the highway. And what it does is
[56:11] it it allows for um day and night
[56:14] signage that really doesn't dice up 12
[56:17] different users into 12 different signs.
[56:19] It allows for multi- multi-tenants to be
[56:22] able to go in and um have their signage,
[56:25] have their highway frontage um signage
[56:27] when it comes to a lot of these
[56:28] restaurant users that are exploring the
[56:30] area is really important. And so
[56:32] >> on the anchor
[56:34] >> absolutely
[56:35] >> the little tabs below for each
[56:36] individual store that's in the mall.
[56:38] >> Yeah, 100%. So, um, this kind of gives
[56:40] them an opportunity to have one cohesive
[56:43] design, one cohesive layout, and allow
[56:45] for, um, everybody to get that signage
[56:47] they need along the highway.
[56:51] » I think that is it on the
[56:54] So, this is in combination between the
[56:56] Walmart development and the JWS
[56:58] commercial allin-one,
[57:02] right? And
[57:05] David, I'm sure you've looked at this
[57:07] some and some of you guys that are
[57:08] familiar with this industry. Is this I
[57:11] mean I'm thinking of our UDC and and you
[57:14] know how we want city to look. Um
[57:17] is this something that's common? I guess
[57:19] I mean I know Scott
[57:22] >> it's pretty common signage among
[57:28] signage.
[57:30] Okay.
[57:32] We've already put two in there and it
[57:35] only makes sense that for the height off
[57:37] of 175 to see them, we might as well do
[57:39] it all the way down.
[57:40] >> Yeah.
[57:40] >> That way we don't have the individual
[57:42] ones on the high.
[57:43] >> Okay.
[57:43] >> We can address
[57:44] >> I I know we did an amendment for uh I
[57:47] think McDonald's for their height.
[57:49] >> McDonald's and Taco.
[57:52] >> Okay. Okay.
[57:53] >> And so it it I would agree. I think it's typically common to allow for
[57:58] multi-tenant signage. With the way that
[58:00] the current ordinance a lot cleaner
[58:03] >> and with river the river PD, this just
[58:05] allows for it to be cohesive.
[58:07] >> Sure.
[58:07] >> We'd have we'd have 15 signs out in
[58:10] front of
[58:10] >> Yeah. No, I wanted the road if you don't
[58:13] allow this.
[58:13] >> Yeah.
[58:14] >> All right.
[58:16] >> Um, now this just says presentation. Are
[58:19] we are we supposed to take action or
[58:21] >> Not tonight. What I wanted to do is give
[58:23] a a council a chance to see this, be
[58:26] able to understand it and before it goes
[58:29] to the planning and zoning and then
[58:30] eventually the council for final
[58:32] approval just um have the developer give
[58:35] them a chance to present it to the
[58:36] council.
[58:40] » Because this development agreement is
[58:41] from 2021.
[58:42] >> Sure.
[58:43] >> David wasn't here. I wasn't here.
[58:45] Normally I would have been a part of
[58:47] some of those discussions about signs.
[58:49] So, I felt it was important that city
[58:51] council
[58:53] gets to see it, gets to weigh in. If you
[58:55] have something you don't like, say it,
[58:58] let us know, you know, because you
[59:00] always do have the ability to say, "How
[59:03] about something else?" Or, you know,
[59:08] >> we not have been that planned
[59:09] development just a few years ago.
[59:13] So development agreement right now
[59:15] states that the signage is going to
[59:17] comport with your UDC.
[59:20] >> Yeah.
[59:20] >> Um your PD ordinance alters that a
[59:22] little bit, but basically that's the
[59:24] problem that it's taking you back to
[59:26] what your ordinance says about signs and
[59:28] it really doesn't your UDC really
[59:31] doesn't think about this type of
[59:33] shopping center, right?
[59:34] >> So we're going to have to amend that
[59:38] ordinance.
[59:38] >> Okay.
[59:40] Well, I know we're just on item 11, but
[59:43] I think you've kind of walked through 12
[59:44] as well. Um,
[59:48] I don't need to go. In fact, I'm going
[59:49] to go ahead and go to item 12. U,
[59:53] presentation by Kimley Horn regarding
[59:55] Riveridge plan development commercial
[59:56] signage amendment request. Um, does
[1:00:00] anybody have an issue on council with what with what he's proposed or or
[1:00:04] the renderings we've seen?
[1:00:07] >> Yeah, I think so. I I don't want it to
[1:00:08] look
[1:00:09] like a hundred signs, you know, every 100 yards. So,
[1:00:14] >> yep. And so, it the reason it's split
[1:00:15] out into the Eagle Crest and River
[1:00:17] Ridge, it's kind of north and south
[1:00:19] side. Sure.
[1:00:19] >> So, um we're ultimately proposing
[1:00:21] similar items on both sides. That's why
[1:00:23] there's two items.
[1:00:28] » An agreement that uh on the Eagle Crest
[1:00:31] development, your development agreement
[1:00:33] says that you guys get to inspect the
[1:00:34] signs. The city does. So even though
[1:00:37] we're doing all of this, there's still
[1:00:39] all these other
[1:00:40] >> safeguards in place. So
[1:00:42] >> yeah. No, I'm glad you suggested. I mean
[1:00:45] it the sooner we know, the sooner we can
[1:00:46] talk and make sure everybody's on the
[1:00:48] same page. So I appreciate that.
[1:00:49] >> Yeah. And I'm glad you brought it up
[1:00:51] that it's two different sides because we
[1:00:53] definitely want both sides of the
[1:00:54] highway to look the same.
[1:00:57] >> Okay.
[1:00:58] All right. Any other questions?
[1:01:00] >> All right. Thank you, sir.
[1:01:01] >> Awesome. Appreciate it.
[1:01:03] >> He's got something.
[1:01:04] >> Oh, I'm sorry. Yes, sir. Just wondering
[1:01:07] looking at the sign there's like room
[1:01:08] for three vendors.
[1:01:14] » I think he was just showing a rendering.
[1:01:16] I think that sign could have 10 vendors
[1:01:18] underneath it.
[1:01:19] >> Yeah. Obviously, we don't want to we
[1:01:21] don't want to drown the sign, but the
[1:01:22] goal is to really just all those users
[1:01:24] that are coming in for the shopping
[1:01:25] center. I mean, it's it's a hot
[1:01:27] commodity, so we want to be able to
[1:01:28] serve them how we can. That's it.
[1:01:30] >> And I've seen them where they do like
[1:01:31] the Walmart in the middle and then
[1:01:33] smaller signages and they're stacked
[1:01:35] side by side.
[1:01:36] >> Exactly.
[1:01:37] >> All right. Thank you, sir. Appreciate.
[1:01:40] >> All right. We'll move on to item 13.
[1:01:42] Discuss and possible action on approving
[1:01:44] resolution number 04062026B
[1:01:47] authorizing city representatives in
[1:01:49] matters pertaining to the city's
[1:01:50] participation in the Texas Community
[1:01:52] Development Block Grant Program.
[1:01:55] >> Good evening.
[1:01:55] Mayor and Council. Uh I'm
[1:01:57] Jake McAlls with public management. Uh
[1:02:00] we are the grant administration firm
[1:02:01] that is assisting the the city with this
[1:02:03] grant. Um so just kind of recap
[1:02:08] everything. Uh this is $750,000 grant uh
[1:02:13] that the city is receiving from applying
[1:02:16] to the Texas Department of Agriculture.
[1:02:19] This is federal HUD money uh but it
[1:02:21] routes through the TDA. It's $750,000.
[1:02:24] This is a matching grant. Uh the city's
[1:02:26] MAT share is $37,500.
[1:02:29] And so this is a total quote unquote
[1:02:32] project budget of $787,500.
[1:02:35] Okay. This goes back to the uh street
[1:02:38] reconstruction uh and and ditch
[1:02:40] reconstruction project that uh Matt with
[1:02:43] SPI presented to the council a couple
[1:02:45] minutes ago.
[1:02:47] Uh so this application is due on May 15.
[1:02:52] Uh the the the big thing is just
[1:02:55] figuring out what are we going to do
[1:02:57] within budget. Uh and so with with Brad
[1:03:00] and David and SPI
[1:03:03] as Matt presented, we we went through a
[1:03:05] variety of iterations. Okay. and
[1:03:09] ultimately
[1:03:11] um reconstructing Church Street and
[1:03:13] Vanston Street as Matt presented
[1:03:17] uh staff decided was the absolute most
[1:03:21] uh practic practicable,
[1:03:24] most effective uh and most u
[1:03:27] conservative-minded approach to proceed
[1:03:30] with at this time. and all of those
[1:03:33] other street sections we're going to
[1:03:35] proceed as as alternates. Okay? And so
[1:03:39] our current plan as of now is that
[1:03:41] Church and Vanston's are going to be the
[1:03:43] base bid. All right. I went out and I
[1:03:45] did the beneficiary surveys. Make sure
[1:03:48] that those two uh streets and all the uh
[1:03:51] residents there qualify for this grant.
[1:03:53] They certainly appear to uh there's
[1:03:55] papers on the the mayor's desk that we
[1:03:57] intend to submit to the TDA tomorrow for
[1:04:00] them to sign off and and agree with all
[1:04:02] that. Uh and then those will be the base
[1:04:05] bid. And then as we get closer to
[1:04:07] bidding this out, we'll rerun the
[1:04:09] opinion of cost. Uh evaluate with with
[1:04:13] staff kind of how they want to prepare
[1:04:15] the the bid schedule. Uh, and hopefully
[1:04:19] we we may be able to award some of those
[1:04:21] additive alternate sections as well.
[1:04:24] Okay, this item before you tonight is to
[1:04:28] approve uh designated individuals. Okay,
[1:04:32] there's there's a couple of different
[1:04:33] positions with this grant. Uh
[1:04:35] specifically, there's the authorized
[1:04:37] official, which uh I I recommend that be
[1:04:43] uh the mayor, the the chief elected
[1:04:46] official, as well as a senior staff
[1:04:49] member. Okay. the authorized official is
[1:04:51] authorized to sign contracts but also to
[1:04:54] do other tasks within the online
[1:04:57] um grant management software that that
[1:05:00] we have which which is really the reason
[1:05:02] that I recommend a staff position and
[1:05:05] then we also have designation uh two
[1:05:07] additional positions to uh authorize
[1:05:09] payments submitting the draw request
[1:05:12] forms require two individuals to approve
[1:05:15] those uh draw submissions in the system.
[1:05:17] Okay, so there's four positions that are
[1:05:21] included on the resolution tonight. Uh
[1:05:24] if you have comments, questions about
[1:05:25] that, certainly happy to address it. Uh
[1:05:27] as well as the rest of the application
[1:05:29] uh process, assuming that you approve
[1:05:31] this resolution tonight, we'll be
[1:05:34] finalizing this application and getting
[1:05:36] that in by the May 15 deadline. Uh the
[1:05:40] contract though, I I will warn you, the
[1:05:42] contract is not expected to officially
[1:05:44] begin until February of 27. Okay. Um
[1:05:50] hopefully
[1:05:51] we'll be able to do the reconstruction
[1:05:55] in that 27 uh paving season. Obviously
[1:06:00] being so close to the school, we're
[1:06:02] going to want to kind of coordinate
[1:06:03] around that with design and everything,
[1:06:06] but construction is going to be a while
[1:06:08] out still. Okay. So, uh that's kind of
[1:06:12] the long and short of it. If you have
[1:06:14] questions about the project, about the
[1:06:16] process, about the resolution. Yes, sir.
[1:06:18] >> David
[1:06:20] council meeting. Um, didn't we discuss
[1:06:23] this grant also a little bit about uh
[1:06:28] the rehabilitation andor new
[1:06:30] construction of sidewalks? Is that
[1:06:36] » another grant?
[1:06:38] Okay. So, this this grant
[1:06:39] has not Okay.
[1:06:45] » Anything else?
[1:06:46] >> Any other questions? Okay. beside
[1:06:51] who's on this the signers and stuff he
[1:06:54] was talking
[1:06:58] other
[1:06:58] >> I I did draft this uh this is my
[1:07:01] recommendation to council it is
[1:07:03] absolutely council's prerogative if you
[1:07:05] want to change so this is TDA's
[1:07:08] resolution and it's basically fill in
[1:07:10] the positions that that you want if
[1:07:13] council wants to designate different
[1:07:16] positions to serve in these roles you
[1:07:18] can serve certainly do that. Again, it
[1:07:20] is my recommendation and only a
[1:07:22] recommendation to have um well, as
[1:07:25] presented. Uh but if y'all want to
[1:07:27] change that, we absolutely can.
[1:07:34] » Doing this right now. The only thing
[1:07:36] that I see different in my other cities
[1:07:37] is on that second one, they've added the
[1:07:39] finance director. Um but like you say,
[1:07:43] they all pretty much all these
[1:07:45] resolutions look the same. And the
[1:07:47] reason being is that that second
[1:07:49] paragraph is when it's crunch time and
[1:07:53] you need the right person in city hall
[1:07:55] at the right time. Um, and sometimes
[1:07:58] >> somebody's out on vacation or
[1:08:00] unavailable
[1:08:01] >> city manager's busy somewhere. So, I
[1:08:03] would just say that if you were thinking
[1:08:05] about anything that you know that might
[1:08:07] be something you want to do is add an
[1:08:09] additional person um should any grant be
[1:08:13] funded because once you once you're
[1:08:14] funded and you probably already know
[1:08:16] this so I'm sorry about repeating it
[1:08:18] once you're funded you got to go you
[1:08:20] don't have time to they they tell you
[1:08:22] the deadlines they tell you when you
[1:08:23] need to do it and um so kind of live
[1:08:26] that pain in other cities
[1:08:35] Okay, I've got a motion from Adam,
[1:08:38] >> second from Tim. All those in favor?
[1:08:42] >> Thank you, sir.
[1:08:43] >> Thank you all very much.
[1:08:45] >> All right, we'll move on to item 14.
[1:08:47] discuss and possible action on the
[1:08:48] proposed fiscal year 2026 agreement for
[1:08:51] fire protection uh excuse me fire
[1:08:53] protection and suppression services
[1:08:55] between Kaufman County Emergency Service
[1:08:57] District number seven and the city of
[1:08:59] Crannle for Fire Services. Um
[1:09:04] I know we got some ESD folks here uh and
[1:09:08] I know we were waiting. Did you get a
[1:09:10] copy of the contract from Aaron or
[1:09:16] and I had a conversation last week and
[1:09:18] we talked about revisions and um some of
[1:09:22] them I agree to some I sent it back to
[1:09:24] her today so I know we are the attorneys
[1:09:27] are in the process of finalizing the
[1:09:30] document
[1:09:30] >> okay
[1:09:31] >> we're very close for me the one thing
[1:09:33] that's hanging is I didn't get any
[1:09:35] objection to the contract commencing on
[1:09:38] May 1st so I'm assuming that the
[1:09:41] contract commencing on May 1st was
[1:09:43] acceptable
[1:09:45] >> but I just don't have a final clean
[1:09:46] copy.
[1:09:47] >> Okay. Um
[1:09:51] Okay. So, we're
[1:09:55] from the bones of the agreement, we're
[1:09:56] good. There's just some attorney stuff.
[1:10:00] >> David and I had a meeting on it, too,
[1:10:02] which I'll let David talk in a minute.
[1:10:03] Um but, um there's nothing major at this
[1:10:08] point, but you know, David and I came to
[1:10:10] the agreement that since we don't have
[1:10:11] it in front of us, we'll just bring it
[1:10:13] back to the next meeting for final
[1:10:14] approval. Okay. Does that work for you?
[1:10:28] » Uh the main thing that we wanted to
[1:10:31] discuss with the council was just to
[1:10:32] make sure that we were okay to start it
[1:10:34] on May 1st. And the reason behind it is
[1:10:36] just so that we can have a clean start
[1:10:38] because the existing agreement that we
[1:10:40] have with the volunteer fire department,
[1:10:42] it's a it goes monthto month. That way
[1:10:44] we give them their final payment and
[1:10:46] then following month we start paying the
[1:10:48] ESD directly.
[1:10:52] » So we'll have it it should be buttoned
[1:10:54] up by
[1:10:55] >> I should have a clean copy this week and
[1:10:57] I I'll have Sabrina share it with all of
[1:10:59] you because I really do want you all to
[1:11:01] look at it. Um and then we'll bring
[1:11:04] we'll come back with this item for
[1:11:05] approval in the next meeting.
[1:11:11] » That'll be good. Okay, go ahead.
[1:11:14] >> Make a motion table uh item number 14
[1:11:17] possible action on the ESD agreement.
[1:11:19] >> Okay, I've got the April
[1:11:22] >> What's the next meeting? April
[1:11:23] >> 20
[1:11:24] >> April 20th meeting council meeting.
[1:11:26] >> Okay, I've got a motion to table from
[1:11:28] Adam
[1:11:29] >> a second from Caleb. All those in favor?
[1:11:33] >> Okay, we'll move on to item 15. Discuss
[1:11:36] and possible action on adding speed
[1:11:37] bumps to Trunk Street between Trinity
[1:11:39] and North First.
[1:11:42] I think
[1:11:45] are we gonna have our new new ser new
[1:11:47] guy walk us through this or
[1:11:52] » it might be a team maybe a team effort
[1:11:57] » get it prepared anyway
[1:11:58] >> you just said it was the last time you
[1:11:59] were coming back up here I knew
[1:12:03] >> you missed us already
[1:12:05] >> yeah I did miss you I am I am gonna miss
[1:12:07] you here
[1:12:10] >> I am going to miss y'all. I I've uh been
[1:12:12] doing this 26 years and been through
[1:12:15] lots of councils and been on a city
[1:12:18] council and y'all are working hard for
[1:12:20] Granville. I appreciate it. But for uh
[1:12:24] trunk street
[1:12:36] all right so on uh trunk street I know
[1:12:39] that
[1:12:40] when I was asked about this there are um
[1:12:43] some special requirements for um to put
[1:12:46] speed bumps they you can't put speed
[1:12:49] bumps in the road you got to they have
[1:12:51] to be speed humps
[1:12:52] So, um, with putting these speed bumps
[1:12:55] or speed humps in other places in town,
[1:12:59] um, the council had to do change some
[1:13:01] ordinance and change some speed limits.
[1:13:03] Um, there are limits to, um, the speed
[1:13:08] posted speed limit on the street to be
[1:13:10] 25 miles an hour or less to be able to
[1:13:14] um, put speed humps on there. and um the
[1:13:18] there's a sight distance requirement and
[1:13:22] signage. So in order to uh slow the
[1:13:28] traffic on uh Trump um came up with poss
[1:13:32] four for sure but possibly five just
[1:13:34] depending upon um those sight distances
[1:13:38] and um the distance between each one of
[1:13:42] those because what what happened in um
[1:13:46] Willow Lake, we put speed humps in there
[1:13:49] and um it caused most of the people in
[1:13:53] there to go from slowing down at the
[1:13:56] hump and then being able to get 45 40
[1:14:00] miles an hour between the two and then
[1:14:02] slow down and then jump that one. And so
[1:14:04] we ended up having to add some
[1:14:05] additional ones in um Willow Lake around
[1:14:08] the park. Um that's why there's so many
[1:14:11] in front of the park because everyone's
[1:14:14] trying to cut the corner and beat the
[1:14:15] traffic. um
[1:14:17] >> not fast.
[1:14:19] >> That's true.
[1:14:21] >> And there and those speed humps also
[1:14:23] have um
[1:14:25] for the way they're the way they're
[1:14:27] rated and the uh um tra the traffic laws
[1:14:32] is what regulates those so that you're
[1:14:34] not um getting them so far apart that
[1:14:37] somebody's going can get going that fast
[1:14:39] and hit them and lose control. um
[1:14:42] because once you put these down, you're
[1:14:45] liable for a lot of stuff. So, just have
[1:14:48] to be careful where where they're
[1:14:50] placed. And then um on Trunk toward
[1:14:53] Trinity,
[1:14:55] um the roads in pretty bad shape on the
[1:14:59] north side of it. So, they may or may
[1:15:01] not stay.
[1:15:04] Um you anchor them best you can and
[1:15:07] cross your fingers.
[1:15:09] But the other option um and the these
[1:15:12] are um
[1:15:16] pretty expensive
[1:15:18] um for each for each one of those uh
[1:15:20] speed humps for the speed bump material
[1:15:26] itself. Um and the signage requirement
[1:15:29] um they're about $2,000 a piece for each
[1:15:33] one of those. We did them in the other areas. The street wasn't
[1:15:38] quite as wide, so they were a little bit
[1:15:40] less, but the it was $1,910
[1:15:46] is what the the price would be for each
[1:15:48] one of those because each one of the
[1:15:50] speed bumps
[1:15:53] requires a um speed hump sign ahead or a
[1:15:57] speed bump um on either side of it. so
[1:16:00] that um eastbound traffic and westbound
[1:16:04] traffic can see those far enough in
[1:16:07] advance to slow down. The other option
[1:16:11] was um the radar feedback speed limit
[1:16:15] signs. Um I know that they're getting
[1:16:18] more and more popular. They have them in
[1:16:22] a lot of neighborhoods to uh help show
[1:16:25] your speed. Um,
[1:16:28] sometimes those visual signs like that
[1:16:31] help. Sometimes they people use them to
[1:16:35] check their speedometer to see if it's
[1:16:37] working or see just how fast they can
[1:16:39] go.
[1:16:40] >> So,
[1:16:42] oh yeah,
[1:16:44] >> especially with no red light or speed
[1:16:46] cameras allowed in the state anymore,
[1:16:47] they're pretty much uh there's no
[1:16:50] consequence. Yeah, but it um it is an
[1:16:55] option for
[1:16:58] that area. And if you wanted to uh limit
[1:17:01] that space where the road where trunk
[1:17:06] goes from
[1:17:08] the west side of that bridge all the way
[1:17:11] to First Street where the road narrows
[1:17:13] to uh start those um speed humps at a
[1:17:17] different area, a different spot just to
[1:17:20] get you slowed down before you get to
[1:17:22] the bridge and then all the way to First
[1:17:24] Street where the um school kids are
[1:17:26] walking.
[1:17:33] It's already 25 mph speed limit. The
[1:17:36] city ordinance is 25.
[1:17:38] >> What if we just what if we just increase
[1:17:40] increased police presence on that road?
[1:17:42] I mean 148 15 years ago when I moved
[1:17:45] here there was always somebody there.
[1:17:47] Everybody knew it. So when they hit town
[1:17:49] they slowed down. If if we put somebody
[1:17:52] over there now and just made everybody
[1:17:54] aware, hey you're going to speed down
[1:17:55] the road you're getting a ticket. Chief,
[1:17:57] buy a couple Harleyies and start a
[1:17:58] traffic unit.
[1:18:01] >> Yeah.
[1:18:05] » Caleb's driveway.
[1:18:06] >> Be sneakier.
[1:18:08] >> I seen Louisiana's using drones now.
[1:18:11] >> Yeah.
[1:18:15] » So, that was the um I mean the
[1:18:18] consideration for for those. And
[1:18:23] if we wanted to just reduce that reduce
[1:18:26] that down a little bit and put a few in
[1:18:29] there to slow you down before you get to
[1:18:31] the bridge. Um the bridge slows most
[1:18:34] everybody down a little bit. But
[1:18:36] >> once you get past that bottleneck, it
[1:18:39] speeds back up.
[1:18:40] >> I'm more for the signage than I am the
[1:18:42] pumps. I think pumps are
[1:18:47] they're a maintenance nightmare,
[1:18:48] especially if you're trying to put them
[1:18:50] on a that's hadn't been designed for it.
[1:18:54] >> The from
[1:18:57] um River Ridge South, the first entrance
[1:19:01] to there from there all the way to First
[1:19:03] Street. Um the streets in good enough
[1:19:06] condition it would they would you could
[1:19:08] maintain them there pretty easy.
[1:19:10] >> Can you and you think your thing said
[1:19:12] 8,000 for a hump? And then
[1:19:14] >> it's they're 2,000. It's $2,000 a piece
[1:19:18] for $1,910
[1:19:20] for those speed hubs and signage.
[1:19:23] >> So that road's wide enough you're going
[1:19:24] to have to have three probably or
[1:19:26] they're just going to drive around them.
[1:19:27] >> Um, no. It's that that $1,900 includes
[1:19:32] from edge of pavement to edge of
[1:19:34] pavement. There's no way There's no way
[1:19:35] you're getting around it.
[1:19:37] >> So, but then you have to stripe and you
[1:19:40] have to do signage.
[1:19:41] >> Um, only signage. The the hump itself
[1:19:44] comes with retroreflective material that
[1:19:48] if you went through Willow Lake or over
[1:19:50] by the park, it's those um we put in the
[1:19:53] same ones
[1:20:12] that
[1:20:14] have to drive slow because
[1:20:22] stop there.
[1:20:25] We're always
[1:20:34] slow on that road. That road is not a
[1:20:37] nice smooth road
[1:20:42] » for but for every one person that's
[1:20:44] driving the speed 25 miles hour over
[1:20:47] there from us doing a waterline project
[1:20:49] over there. For every one that's driving
[1:20:52] the speed limit, there's 10 that are
[1:20:54] going forward.
[1:20:57] >> David, have we got a lot of complaints?
[1:21:06] So, just to let you know, I uh
[1:21:11] requested the agenda and I wanted to add
[1:21:13] it to be able to have a discussion just
[1:21:16] to see what the council how council
[1:21:18] would like to move forward if everybody
[1:21:20] was okay with the speed. I'm sure you
[1:21:22] got you guys wanted to see a different
[1:21:23] uh potential solution.
[1:21:26] >> Many of the citizens called and said,
[1:21:28] "Hey, you got to do something to slow
[1:21:30] these people down."
[1:21:31] I would like to do a poll or something
[1:21:33] in that neighborhood over there just to
[1:21:34] see how many citizens are
[1:21:37] >> on her side and how many people
[1:21:39] >> I'm the one who asked for the request so
[1:21:40] I'm going to speak my mind. Um and I've
[1:21:43] talked to my neighbors most of them
[1:21:45] directly. We we especially we're right
[1:21:48] there by the bridge. It is not
[1:21:54] traffic's one thing because you got
[1:21:55] people passing back and forth but there
[1:21:57] are a lot of people who do walk that
[1:21:59] road in the evening. And there are a lot
[1:22:00] of kids that walk home between and they
[1:22:02] cut from Metal Creek across the gas
[1:22:05] easement onto Trump. And it is amazing
[1:22:09] how fast people get going in the
[1:22:11] afternoons especially because it's
[1:22:13] usually the traffic coming from Trinity
[1:22:15] back towards Spurs. It's well over 40
[1:22:19] while back. I know Chief tried to set up
[1:22:21] over there a couple times. It's
[1:22:23] difficult. It's wide open. You can see
[1:22:25] them. But I mean I can be standing in my
[1:22:27] driveway and I have a 8-year-old. I
[1:22:29] never let him out on the street unless
[1:22:30] I'm standing at the end of my driveway
[1:22:33] and I can yell distance-wise for him to
[1:22:35] get off the road or get back the
[1:22:37] driveway. It it is it's highly
[1:22:39] dangerous. I mean, I'm I'm being honest.
[1:22:41] And it's just they they see the open
[1:22:43] road and it's it's gunn it 100%. So, it
[1:22:47] was my ask and I believe it's a safety
[1:22:50] issue and I don't know any other way to
[1:22:51] slow it down. There's foot stop signs
[1:22:54] whole stretch. I mean it it's limited
[1:22:57] options as far as what we can do to try
[1:22:59] to reduce the the speed through there.
[1:23:01] >> When when the uh police department
[1:23:05] trailer was over there, did it help any?
[1:23:07] >> Didn't help at all.
[1:23:08] it. You I mean, you know, people look at
[1:23:10] a couple times they all know like Adam
[1:23:12] mentioned zero consequences kind of like
[1:23:15] the signs that uh is my you know I put
[1:23:18] bigger tires on my vehicle and doing 25
[1:23:21] according to the sign in my you know my
[1:23:23] speedometer type situation but
[1:23:28] >> you can hear
[1:23:29] >> still some grand
[1:23:31] >> you can hear them coming. I mean that's
[1:23:32] kind of the deal too. It falls to that
[1:23:34] valley and you can hear them from one
[1:23:35] end to the other. And I don't care if
[1:23:36] it's truck or car.
[1:23:48] » Too bad. Um let's let's look at maybe
[1:23:51] placing some of the bridge. Would that
[1:23:54] help?
[1:23:56] >> I agree. Some people go to the speed
[1:23:58] limit, but there's a lot that man, it's
[1:24:00] just
[1:24:00] >> and it and it uh might be it might be
[1:24:03] the point where once you get past
[1:24:06] Sabine, that first entrance, if we could
[1:24:09] just slow them down, slow them down
[1:24:11] before the bridge, right,
[1:24:12] >> and then after the bridge, and then that
[1:24:15] one before First Street, and I can look
[1:24:17] at those distances and find out if if
[1:24:20] that's feasible.
[1:24:21] >> I mean, I'm I'm open to 100% settle
[1:24:24] anything, but it's just becoming
[1:24:28] It's an increasing danger,
[1:24:34] you know, out of tolerance. Let's take a
[1:24:37] 5ft section of that road and put it in
[1:24:39] tolerance before we put them in. And
[1:24:41] that that uh on the
[1:24:44] CIP on the CIP list, that is one of the
[1:24:47] um roads that western section past the
[1:24:50] bridge is one of those that um would be
[1:24:53] is on the um would be on the CIP list
[1:24:57] for reclaim and replace. So
[1:24:59] >> yeah, but it's probably going to be a
[1:25:01] little while away. And and I know we're
[1:25:03] fixing to start doing the Mallerie Road
[1:25:05] project and stuff like that. We could we
[1:25:07] could get those guys to throw in a 5ft
[1:25:10] strip over there
[1:25:13] cheap cheaper than mobilizing a whole
[1:25:16] brand new company.
[1:25:24] » Speed humps along street
[1:25:28] pending an evaluation of the tolerance
[1:25:30] of the roadway.
[1:25:36] Second from Tim. All those in favor.
[1:25:43] » You can vote.
[1:25:50] [laughter]
[1:25:56] » All right. Thank you, sir. Um, move on
[1:25:58] to item 16, executive session. Council
[1:26:01] will hold executive session pursuant to
[1:26:03] the provisions of chapter 551, the Texas
[1:26:05] Government Code, in accordance with the
[1:26:07] authority contained therein. Executive

[1:26:22] executive.
[1:26:22] >> Motion.
[1:26:23] >> We got a motion from Adam.
[1:26:25] >> Second.
[1:26:26] from
[1:26:28] those in favor.
[1:26:30] All right. And that is at 7:57.
[1:26:38] Are you good to go back there? Stay
[1:26:39] here.
[1:26:41] >> I'm good.
[1:26:42] >> I'm supposed to walk.
[1:26:43] >> Okay.
[1:26:43] >> That's one thing I'm supposed to do.
[1:26:47] >> Doing what?
[1:26:51] » Hey, is he supposed to be crouching down
[1:26:53] putting cords into outlets? Running
[1:26:55] cords into outlets.
[1:27:00] Not supposed to carry that.
[1:27:02] miles.
[1:27:12] Two gallons of
[2:38:25] No,
[2:38:27] >> but I'm aware.
[2:38:29] All right, let's move on to item 17,
[2:38:31] open session. Council will now adjourn
[2:38:33] from executive session, reconvene into
[2:38:34] open session pursuant to the provisions
[2:38:36] of chapter 551 of the Texas Government
[2:38:38] Code, and take action, if any, on items
[2:38:41] discussed during closed executive
[2:38:42] session. Uh, if I could get a motion to
[2:38:45] adjurnn from executive session and uh
[2:38:47] reconvene open session.
[2:38:49] >> Motion.
[2:38:50] >> I got a motion from Adam and a second
[2:38:51] from Scott. Um,
[2:38:54] I don't believe there's any any action
[2:38:56] on item 17. So, I'm going to move on to
[2:38:58] item 18. If I get a motion to adjurnn,
[2:39:00] I've got one from Adam and a second from
[2:39:02] Caleb. All those in favor?
[2:39:05] >> Thank you.
[2:39:07] >> You read that last one.
[2:39:10] >> You didn't got to give me a chance.
