[0:01] I guess getting a smoker going is probably in the main tradition. Sometimes it's just, you know, grilling some borders or something, but any of our works. Sharon.
[0:20] And I
[0:25] think we're still trying to figure that out. Like what are, should I mean, we have a new kid that's added into the mix. So it's like, what are we going to do every year? I think the first couple of years when my daughter was little.
[0:37] We would just drive around and sit somewhere so we didn't have like a place that we went to but
[0:43] We're also new to Texas where I'm from. It was in same place every year
[0:46] So that's what we did as a kid
[0:48] But I think still trying to figure it out when you have too many options. You don't know really know what to do either
[0:53] So I think we're still trying to figure that out. We'll have to start something
[0:59] Let's see if my son even likes him this year
[1:03] Some little don't like them and they're pretty scared so we'll see if that's this year.
[1:12] Yes.
[1:15] I'm Tina and we two have the traditional swim party.
[1:20] All our family comes over.
[1:24] Just a big hook out and swim and sparklers and we've got it.
[1:30] Um,
[1:33] David and, uh, we normally do this because that's the case.
[1:44] I'm Gary and we try to go to the lake.
[1:47] All right.
[1:48] All right.
[1:48] Watch other people blow up their money.
[1:50] Yeah.
[1:50] I mean, you're a great man.
[1:56] Those lakes probably don't leave very clean.
[2:00] Well, we have a lake house, so we go.
[2:02] Oh.
[2:03] You sit in the lake house.
[2:04] I don't know.
[2:05] You sit on the dock and watch everybody else blow it off all across.
[2:08] Yeah.
[2:08] Gary.
[2:09] I like that tradition. I want to take that one. Sorry
[2:48] Is it like a see oh yeah like a sees on the other side of Riyada.
[3:01] Yeah, you have to go towards like Sam Reynolds maybe not on the 4th of July, but Sam Reynolds
[3:33] is where they get all the fires like
[3:42] Thank
[3:49] you. You
[3:53] guys want to play?
[3:54] Yeah,
[3:58] I'll go. I'm Caitlin.
[4:03] Yes. And my family, we have a domino tournament every 4th of July.
[4:10] So yeah, and last year was the first year I actually won.
[4:14] So hoping that I can do that again this year.
[4:33] No one is admitting what they do fireworks.
[4:36] I can't.
[4:37] It's spark, I'm just going to leave it.
[4:39] Jared, what about you?
[4:42] Cook out.
[4:44] Down.
[4:44] We are pooled.
[4:49] Hitting on.
[4:50] It fits rain a lot.
[4:52] Then, well, what about fireworks?
[4:53] But if it's not, then we're not done on pool.
[4:56] What are rainals?
[4:57] Fair.
[4:59] Travel white for fire.
[5:23] We're going to launch right into the boards and commission stuff and so on pages 16 to 19
[5:32] of your charters you've got that and I have all of the top I hope have captured all of
[5:40] these. And there's really not much comparison to other charters that needs to be done for
[5:46] most of these topics. They're very common and similar in the comparison chart. So,
[5:54] the way I thought I might do that for you all this evening is just to introduce the lead
[6:00] topic, see if anybody has any questions about any of those. And then we can have a conversation
[6:06] obviously David another settlement P and Z. So that's an easy one. And then we get to the finances
[6:12] here to help us with that. So the first general authority
[6:19] basically says that the council can create a established or a point the boards. And
[6:26] there's a broad latitude as they deem as they deem necessarily. And they will do also a
[6:42] I did ask Sam knowing he wasn't going to be here or was, heading on this one was interesting to me, General Authority Compose.
[6:51] And so I asked about that. No other charter that I could find had that specific language.
[6:58] And we agreed that there's a missing T of General Authority Compose.
[7:14] Okay,
[7:16] then number two is that minutes will be maintained, kept in maintained and
[7:21] promised admitted to the council and three importantly no officer or
[7:29] employee of the city or any person who holds a compensated appointed office will be appointed
[7:35] to the board's commissions or commissions, right?
[7:38] You know any conflict of interest there?
[7:40] That's really the broad authority to compose words and commissions.
[7:49] And then 502 is all about the P and Z.
[7:52] and as you think about it, I'm established and respected.
[7:58] We
[8:03] all need to know a pair of that.
[8:05] We state 7 members.
[8:10] A pair of two-year terms.
[8:15] A pair of vice-chair.
[8:21] A pair of firm, by majority.
[8:25] That's what they do.
[8:32] Yes.
[9:30] I
[9:36] think that had to do with when the charter was created they had to dictate how it flowed because we were adding the extra body in and it had to be adjusted by years.
[9:47] I think is how that came about original charter peoples.
[9:52] David, do you remember that?
[9:53] Yeah, that was a discussion, I think.
[9:55] It would be staggered like that.
[9:59] But I think that came about because of adding the new position.
[10:03] I
[10:14] want me to do a little more digging on that too.
[10:16] I will make a look.
[10:17] Yeah.
[10:18] I will cover that.
[10:19] Make sure that we're not creating.
[10:24] It's greater.
[10:30] I don't think so.
[10:31] My sense is administratively big.
[10:34] Every
[10:37] year you're going to have
[10:50] meat.
[10:51] At least once a month.
[10:53] minutes, minutes will be recorded and so my question is going to be,
[11:17] oh, for example I can
[11:41] see a
[13:03] but
[13:06] it's only mandating it for P&Z. I think that's this question truly damn.
[13:18] I think the P&Z board would be a little bit different than the library board.
[13:23] wouldn't it? I mean, in Nebys?
[13:27] Well,
[13:42] it was pervolved
[13:47] in these types of things,
[13:49] even about which there are times when we do this.
[13:55] What's the...
[13:56] So, if there were some cases,
[13:57] what do you want to read to that?
[13:59] Because
[14:01] once a month and less,
[14:04] you don't know what you've got to do there.
[14:06] There's something along those lines.
[14:09] Now, I don't know about it,
[14:11] you know, but I could look.
[14:41] So
[14:50] can it be on a like an as needed basis?
[14:52] Yeah, nothing is going to move if you are hearing.
[14:57] You know, just for our, again, I'm going to go ahead and back.
[16:16] The problem with too much work of work, what we are struggling is getting enough interest in people who will apply, who, you know, are wanting to join for a lot of reasons, so that we can be happy.
[16:37] So I do think,
[16:47] you know, give your boards guidance on what they need to do when you encounter these kinds of things. So we're not like,
[17:00] oh, how
[17:14] the, you know, maybe it's not always written. I think
[17:20] it would help if she had a couple more members.
[17:25] And you know, we have to get
[17:34] forward,
[17:37] but also have to help, so if we have people,
[17:42] and so
[17:47] if you need, and you've got to do the other things
[18:01] possibly,
[18:02] including language, when we talk about those conditions,
[18:05] including language is going to allow us for all conditions,
[18:15] I don't have to go through the same bedding class and
[18:22] we're apart, we're willing to be
[18:25] and they need
[18:32] to be bored
[18:37] in some form of action.
[18:40] They can't just be a body.
[18:42] So I realize as I'm talking about this, I'm digging one hole and then getting out of the other.
[18:47] But, but there I think, I think sometimes we trade for the commission
[18:56] is planning
[19:12] is owning is a statutory
[19:15] So yes, we met monthly in Melissa. We met monthly and then we did a dinner beforehand and then we did a work session that we did a regular session.
[19:36] How many total?
[19:37] How many total?
[19:38] All of this?
[19:39] Well, yeah.
[19:40] Is it like five and two or seven and nine?
[19:43] Oh, seven and usually one alternate.
[19:48] Here, I've taken a little bit different approach to it, though.
[19:56] I can see when we might come to where we would need more than one meeting in a month.
[20:02] But I don't think we're there yet.
[20:04] But with development like it is,
[20:07] There's so many things that sort of fit into planning and zoning.
[20:11] It's economic development, and then it's also a lot of just big issues related to land use.
[20:20] But one thing that Matt Sear and I've done is taking all of our commissioners to lunch
[20:29] about two times a year to keep them engaged.
[20:33] That's been hugely helpful.
[20:35] So I would be an advocate for meeting monthly because it creates cohesiveness with your
[20:42] board.
[20:44] When somebody moves or you get a vacancy, that alternate then just steps in and fills
[20:50] that position and you recruit another alternate, you're not having to create a situation where
[20:57] you're having to fill a vacancy.
[20:59] And the good thing about that is we ask all of our alternates to come to every meeting.
[21:03] That way they know what's going on
[21:06] That's worked out very well so far. This may be dumb question, but it is
[21:14] Remote attendance allowed I guess somebody dialed in via zoom meeting or something
[21:19] And participated could they
[21:21] Participate in the meeting and vote if need be
[21:24] Alternates don't vote. No, I just I'm talking about like regular
[21:29] Yeah, so like if I'm on the board and I can't and I'm on vacation someone
[21:33] But hey, I can dial in via Zoom and attend the meeting and vote, is that allowed?
[21:39] Through Zoom, remote participation in the media, if I'm on the board, and I can't be there.
[21:46] Yeah, you have to be present to vote.
[21:49] Okay, so if someone dials in, remote, or the meeting, they can do that, and they can participate, but they don't vote.
[21:55] Okay, that's why I was trying to understand, is that allowed or not?
[21:58] Yeah, because I know on boards, on boards I've heard from the past, we have found it.
[22:02] We have heard Janet about that because we just never have had that come on.
[22:08] All right.
[22:09] I mean, kind of horrible idea if you can't get a quarrel.
[22:12] On boards, that's your bottom.
[22:13] Past, we wrote that into the bylaws and said hey, if we can't get a quarrel physically, you know, we have a conference bridge that up and so.
[22:22] I think that would be a good question.
[22:28] Fair.
[22:29] I'm not saying.
[22:30] I think it's a great question.
[22:32] And
[23:01] your charter gives an ample latitude.
[23:14] Good.
[23:19] Two, there's the one spot we talked about that.
[23:22] And then three, on the majority of the full membership
[23:25] of Constitu.
[23:37] adopted, letters, affirmative, vote.
[23:40] And champ will be voting.
[23:49] Three, these are the duties and powers.
[23:51] And so, again, it's an advisory board to the Council because it does not have a national
[23:56] authority responsibility.
[23:58] And we can see what we are going to do to do the current proposed ordinances, make proposals,
[24:05] keep the recorders, do the plans and zoning requests.
[24:16] The Commission does have full power to just ice it up.
[24:21] I think we've worked with the legislation related to the cost plan and the pro-class
[24:30] side plans and plans to get to the end of the deadline, and we can't delegate those.
[24:45] Does that just
[24:49] do back in?
[24:54] Well, or if they've been given the authority to the end of the deadline.
[24:57] So, in the creation of ordinance, we are going to establish non
[25:12] -cast-specific laws of
[25:15] latitude.
[25:22] Okay, thank you.
[25:23] And the 504 is.
[25:25] Sorry.
[25:26] I'm sorry.
[25:26] I'm sorry.
[25:27] I don't know.
[25:27] I'm out.
[25:27] I had back on 502.3.
[25:30] And it was.
[25:31] I remember what I did today.
[25:33] So, long time ago.
[25:34] We were talking about city council voting.
[25:36] Do we change that if somebody abstains?
[25:38] what it how does I because
[25:44] it doesn't say here but I know if we should it the
[25:48] the verbage be consistent.
[25:51] So an extension is a no vote.
[26:22] I think that was
[26:47] one we were supposed to look at when we finally make the finals to add in that the
[26:52] extension was a negative just like this is worded.
[27:30] What's that?
[27:33] I think so.
[27:34] I was just, it was more, I couldn't remember, I can't remember how the, how it was worded
[27:37] and what we were changing to and if this wording was kind of, was consistent with it,
[27:54] this
[27:54] Is there a process over the in-line to the measure and then measure and submit a recommendation as
[28:11] a conflict of
[28:15] close and prohibited from discussing with those who
[28:25] are physically difficult?
[28:30] Yeah, not required to, but yeah, generally as a good for the best base.
[28:36] We're
[28:53] making the city council leave if they're reclusing their self any council mission
[29:00] claiming whatever they have a conflict of interest they need to leave the very most
[29:06] of
[29:09] you.
[29:13] Yeah, we've actually run into this.
[29:16] We have a lunch commissioner who is a civil engineer and he works for a company that does
[29:22] I'm contracting with, you know, general contractors in our area and developers and certain
[29:31] contractors.
[29:33] And yeah, he has to recuse himself.
[29:39] We don't require him to recuse himself, we don't require him to recuse himself.
[29:41] Yeah,
[29:44] he easily does stay with that, but he doesn't participate in it, so
[29:52] he doesn't vote
[29:54] So does that have things?
[29:58] No.
[30:00] Yeah, it's just a conflict.
[30:07] Yeah. Didn't you rely on your other commissioners to be just like if he was absent or assume that?
[30:17] I think it should, they should leave the room. I mean, you've got facial speech, facial features and everything else. Well, they're hearing what's going on. They're hearing what's going on.
[30:39] If they recluse themselves for a conflict of interest,
[30:43] they need to leave the room, totally, out of the room they should be in the room, period.
[30:53] That's my opinion.
[30:55] Okay, well, we'll redline that, and again, it's not through the last slides of that out.
[31:04] That's my opinion.
[31:05] Other people that can take two other decisions too.
[31:08] My opinion is that one.
[31:16] Three is where you have five.
[31:18] It was 3.12, and the final was to leave it the way that it was.
[31:23] to force, but that's right.
[31:31] So, you have that worst thing I could do here.
[31:35] Sorry?
[31:36] And, of course, the PNC is very good.
[31:41] 4, 3.
[31:43] We were trying to find back to where out of the ocean.
[31:47] That's the council was about the abstention.
[31:49] Yeah.
[31:50] That's where the 3.12 was.
[31:52] That's right.
[31:53] Council for requirements.
[31:55] We were comparing it back to this one that allows the abstention but forces it as a bill.
[32:01] Okay,
[32:06] 505 is the comprehensive plan, so each of them is the future land use,
[32:16] surfer plan, PTJ, all
[32:25] additions are by ordinance,
[32:30] minimum of one public year.
[32:32] And
[32:41] then, two, is that any proposals, a typical language forward to the CM, submissive
[32:48] recommendations, and the public
[32:56] hearing has to be within 60 days, all of this,
[33:09] and if
[33:10] the council rejects the council, they request the P and Z to make a lot more
[33:26] common as
[33:27] you grow.
[33:39] And the Comprehensive Plan shall serve as a guide for future council action.
[33:46] This is actually a pretty powerful statement, comment in those starters.
[33:51] But what it really says to the council is pay attention to your company.
[34:04] Anything else under boards and commissions or chairs
[34:13] and quests?
[34:13] We're going to kind of skip through the direct stuff and the ethics ordinances, so we'll write over to number eight.
[34:29] So if an angel procedures, anybody who remembers that glory will be.
[34:35] Do you remember this?
[35:28] Remember this?
[35:46] Show me the money.
[35:48] Oh, that movie has more off-coded lines than anything else around, so there we go.
[35:57] Financial procedures, article 8.
[36:01] Fiscal years, October 1st.
[36:04] It's pretty typical in Texas, really around the country, but for sure here.
[36:10] Also then requires that that be the budgeting.
[36:13] and talk about the manager's responsibilities as it relates to finances to prepare
[36:21] the budget, submit the budget, responsible for administration after it's adopted, and
[36:27] to keep the council a prize of the financial conditions.
[36:31] It makes my condition.
[36:37] Legit much, shall in this case, provide a complete financial picture and an outline for the proposed
[36:45] financial policies, a solidated equipment, a statement of anticipated receipts for
[36:53] those expenditures, levies and collections, itemized expenses by department, revenue
[37:01] and expense, statement for bonds, all types of bonds, anything that you've issued.
[37:07] And F, sort of like other duties, as assigned in the jump description, anything else that
[37:14] the council report.
[37:24] 803 is anticipated revenues compared to the other years. Obviously
[37:29] we wanted to be able to track and forecast. So we're going to get any of the actual amount.
[37:34] The estimated amount for the current year and the proposed amount for these. Your budgets
[37:41] are all online. You get
[37:57] 804 is proposed expenditures.
[38:09] 5 is that it's a public record. It
[38:21] was 6.
[38:59] We'll be today to proceed
[39:37] on the adoption, they analyze it, make additions, and then adopt it by
[39:45] I'm going to vote on the majority of the bull membership, so don't take
[39:56] action.
[40:24] Transverse?
[40:28] Or budget appropriation of the amount.
[40:30] After it's adopted, the budget is in effect for the budget year, and as soon as it's adopted,
[40:38] all of those monies are in
[40:48] the entire amount.
[40:48] I didn't
[40:53] think you'd get
[41:04] in the budget to buy the
[41:13] first doctorate all the way out there, buy an ex-equipment,
[41:23] possibly as a proposal.
[41:33] I didn't take two bucks again, much like projects.
[41:37] It's a compliment.
[41:40] For a construction project or a waterline construction project,
[42:25] those actually, whatever that point is going to be, we're going to be increased in the same way.
[42:31] Did you not adopt an ex-equipment project for it?
[42:37] That's your public hearing.
[43:08] Usually you would hear, I mean, I've seen where there's obviously everyone's affected.
[43:14] Don't raise my taxes.
[43:20] A budget that has the
[43:32] workshops, the public is covered.
[43:35] There are swiggets without the everyone to look at.
[43:43] And it's one of those, I would say, an overarching generalist statement,
[43:50] have it from.
[43:58] We
[44:03] don't agree fat taxes.
[44:05] But they don't say I've studied the budget and what bike you're doing this.
[44:10] This budget out a couple of years and I was like this much.
[44:15] There's been that doesn't.
[44:20] About that level of conversation.
[44:30] Yeah well we presented.
[44:34] We have budget workshops,
[44:40] and then we have a workshop in the end, and
[44:47] it's just workshop.
[44:51] So this is just like, we have really, really constant work.
[44:55] So, last time we talked about, you could only find a special way to do it.
[45:41] General government accounting,
[46:06] draft legend,
[46:15] then we put it out there, the President, that's
[46:22] the wearable bill
[46:27] for those, and
[46:30] the ultimate decision to be city council, and just
[46:34] I bring recommendation council. With that, I have a question. Who would give their 18-year-old
[46:50] child. That kind of responsibility and we go back to age as far as City Council. I wouldn't, not at 18.
[47:18] to be putting in the hands of my person.
[47:23] And hopefully the, like
[47:28] Chris,
[47:31] probably.
[47:33] Probably I will say I have, or if
[47:46] they don't show up
[47:47] till the last second, probably not.
[47:49] They've been at all, but if you're hearing,
[48:04] okay?
[48:06] Let's see, transfer of appropriations,
[48:09] council can transfer funds, they can amend the budget,
[48:20] I guess we're not backing up sort of on the appropriations council can have the power
[48:27] to transfer funds allocated by the budget to one activity function blah blah blah.
[48:31] So what it cracked me if I'm crazy does this thing is if we give $5,000 to the library
[48:36] for a new carpet and council decides they want new carpet and the council chambers they can
[48:41] and take that $5,000 from the library and put it in here?
[48:44] I have to go on the yesterday, or I don't think so.
[48:46] Okay.
[48:49] And then they can amend it.
[48:52] So if the budget says that they're gonna use $5,000
[48:57] on the council floor and they spend $25,000,
[49:00] that's okay with them.
[49:01] And then we end up with a budget shortfall.
[49:04] Typically a budget is
[49:14] like,
[49:15] if you look at the current transfer,
[49:16] So if it's a relative small number, 25,000, they didn't get it right.
[49:24] But if a fire truck was damaged and they needed to amend the budget in order to do the issue,
[49:32] such as suffocation or some short-term debt, that's what you mean.
[49:40] And that's pretty standard.
[49:42] Okay.
[49:42] You really want them to have that afforded.
[49:46] It gives them, they have to vote.
[49:47] And so it's not that they just walk in and say,
[49:50] here, the legislature and the legislature
[49:52] have to do this vote.
[49:53] So it's posted in general.
[49:58] You want them to have that,
[50:07] talk about their legal issues.
[50:09] And a lot of my people,
[50:14] they've got $5,000 in the list.
[50:17] The library over here, we've exactly
[50:19] been in
[50:25] action and
[50:33] probation amendment.
[50:34] It could be, if we had some statements,
[50:36] no matter if it's in the end product, the comptroller's office is auditing ourselves taxes.
[50:42] So, that's a clear reason for me.
[50:45] Or it could be that the comptroller said, I think this year, instead of the bill for about $150,000.
[50:55] That's it.
[50:56] The auditing, you will list all of them, search that thing.
[50:59] And there should be about the purchase of no action.
[51:02] The deviation from the budget, there could be some other things like that.
[51:06] So if a deviation from using your example, the comptroller came in and said, oh, we messed up.
[51:14] Here's $150,000 for you.
[51:17] Is that you really would just say, hey, let's go see how we can spend this?
[51:20] Or is there like a rainy day fund that this is going to?
[51:23] So that's actually,
[51:35] is there a direction for the council to do that for our economy because
[51:46] they use that money to put things down on social protect?
[51:51] Use that money because it's one-time money and you want to do one-time money for one-time savings.
[51:57] Right.
[52:02] But I know in recent times we were talking about the generator for this building and talking
[52:10] about this huge expense of purchasing the generator, renting the generator, the whole
[52:13] generator conversation, you know, that might be a good option or maybe putting that money
[52:18] away.
[52:19] So when the generator breaks or, you know, there's going to be some obscure maintenance, you
[52:23] type things that got to come up, that aren't in the budget, that if you had that rainy day
[52:28] fund, I don't know if that's even where I'm looking for it, but so we do have
[52:36] So there is a policy for
[52:39] We have cities
[52:43] All working all about
[52:49] We
[52:52] Study
[52:53] setting in the bank account that we did not write for salaries or to take your thing, so we have that that we operate within the city as a window and we look to 90 on the point they operate things because they are budgets, not reasons to buy it and give it
[53:18] for a day, we operate the city and so we look to
[53:28] do what we said.
[53:29] Does the state mandate a certain?
[54:27] Okay, there's something like a sit in this just me personal and citizens we just keep getting
[54:32] beaten and beaten and beaten and beaten and more citizens come and that's just more citizens
[54:37] getting the beating and then you're talking about, you know, getting money back from somewhere and
[54:40] we're still getting beaten. That's what you personally say. Oh, I agree with you.
[54:45] May the whoopin stop if there's more revenue coming from somewhere else that will
[54:57] chip in
[54:57] away at some of that debt also takes some of that burden away in the long term.
[55:02] Yeah.
[55:03] Which is a code of tax.
[55:06] Typically your debt.
[55:10] People from raising.
[55:11] People from raising.
[55:12] At least.
[55:13] You know.
[55:14] Thank you for my radical.
[55:16] But it's good to understand some of that fun.
[55:19] There was a lot of fun.
[55:20] Yep.
[55:23] Okay.
[55:23] All right.
[55:24] Super.
[55:26] Which is talked about in the certification.
[55:30] And how would the state secretary.
[55:32] and they'll designate those places where they'll file them and they'll print it or otherwise
[55:42] reproduce as a fishing company shall we name
[55:51] it? Printing if I do that.
[56:02] Defects are not
[56:03] invalidated, I mean every now and then there's a mistake before you make sure that doesn't
[56:11] Yeah, you finished where you're saying I was going to go back to the side.
[56:14] So, this is just a catch-all phrase to say, one mistake that I'm going to say.
[56:21] On the previous one I was going to ask and there may be a legal requirement why it has to be.
[56:25] You know, a lot of whether it's water bill, phone bills, I've gone to electronic copies.
[56:30] Is there an option here to do an electronic copy of the budget and cut out printing all that paper?
[56:59] So it's more on a ask as needed. Yeah. Thank you. It's not like they got 200 copies that you're waiting for so much. That's that's where my
[57:40] That's in the, that's in the fee schedule, is it not?
[57:50] So
[57:53] we, we charge that today.
[57:55] Yes.
[57:56] Maybe that's right.
[58:14] I think that's right.
[58:15] I think we're going to try it.
[58:20] Let's look around.
[58:24] On a room check.
[58:25] We'll let you know that for seven.
[58:26] How you feel you want to stretch, break?
[58:28] How you feel going?
[58:30] Stretch, break.
[58:31] Stretch, break.
[58:32] Can I?
[58:34] So?
[58:36] All right.
[58:38] So, were we at 12, a defect shall not inality to 11, 13, laps of appropriations?
[58:45] And simply what that means is that the end of the fiscal year that all the appropriations
[58:52] laps, they have to be re-budgeted for for the next year.
[58:58] It doesn't apply to capital, but it probably is.
[59:03] And that's where your excess funds come from, so three to four months, like anybody else,
[59:13] the banks, the many agencies, purchasers or bonds, more cash to have, the more they like.
[59:20] B-14 is borrowing, so borrowing basically says here that the council has got very broad
[59:26] order. They can borrow in the credit of the city, issued or incur bonds. They can
[59:35] then, uh, look by secured by or paid and whole or apart from had a war on, revenues from
[59:43] other taxing revenues, any public utility monies, really anything that the Constitution allows,
[59:53] does require that you issue debt or a particular purpose and it can only be used for that.
[1:00:00] The big section, any questions on that one?
[1:00:05] Is that where the city citizens vote on the bonds? And then they've... So one of the kinds of bonds, yeah, a great question. So general obligation debt does require affirmative of the community citizens. Most other forms of debt do not. So certificates of obligation, other short-term instruments, revenue debt, doesn't require it.
[1:00:31] some cities do a advisory election if it's a new park and they want to
[1:00:38] organize your certificates of obligations.
[1:00:44] Those terms familiar with you and to you?
[1:00:48] So the geo-general obligation, full faith in private of the city,
[1:00:53] that gets paid before Jason.
[1:00:59] So you get debt paid before anything else, full pay for credit, certificates of obligation
[1:01:04] are used, you pledge to pay a bank, it's within 10 basis points, 15 basis points, and the same.
[1:01:13] I agree with you.
[1:01:15] What do you mean?
[1:01:15] I agree.
[1:01:20] Okay.
[1:01:22] I don't know if I have found travel or something like that.
[1:01:24] Yeah, exactly.
[1:01:25] I mean, I think a geodedish who is costly, you've got it, you've got it, you've got it
[1:01:35] all the experience, and if it's something that you know you need a fire truck, if you're
[1:01:43] Yeah, these purchase a bunch of B and those are something that they're going to take their last one.
[1:01:55] Okay, yeah.
[1:02:12] Oh,
[1:02:18] street, specifically an old town, too, wouldn't it?
[1:02:21] That one, that one, that one, that one, I guess.
[1:02:27] 1915 is purchasing.
[1:02:29] Basically, the council gets a man, may give the menager authority to contract.
[1:02:35] the emergency contract.
[1:02:38] There's no further authority needed.
[1:02:42] I've just said they may prescribe.
[1:02:45] If it's over that, the council.
[1:02:52] What is that limit here?
[1:04:21] Emergency contracts can be negotiated by the council.
[1:04:24] Or the manager.
[1:04:25] If the manager's given that for you without
[1:05:08] We're going to leave the money from, because what's going on, it's happening.
[1:05:12] Yes, I'm going to have to take immediate action.
[1:05:16] There's a pattern in front of my house.
[1:05:19] No, again, from the other side.
[1:05:21] So, there's legitimate reasons, but, too, well,
[1:05:24] protection that has to be declared.
[1:05:29] 16 is the depository.
[1:05:35] You can un-mess.
[1:05:42] I independent on it at the close of each fiscal year.
[1:05:50] Council has the power to tax.
[1:05:57] There's an office of the tax collector.
[1:06:00] and that may be contracted out.
[1:06:15] Taxes would do in payable.
[1:06:17] We'll
[1:06:22] work that one.
[1:06:24] We'll
[1:06:30] be doing a
[1:06:54] mission that doesn't
[1:06:56] relieve the obligation of the person firm
[1:06:59] or corporation to pay the taxes.
[1:07:09] And pay 21, they can create a tax win,
[1:07:17] a special win, and a favor of the city
[1:07:20] for the taxes to do.
[1:07:21] And the persons,
[1:07:24] I'm going to make
[1:07:56] sure that, even if there's an error in the description of the property
[1:08:00] where it's not clearly what it is,
[1:08:18] that attacks that wouldn't be levied by the appraisal
[1:08:22] district.
[1:08:23] Yeah, that's into your tax bill.
[1:08:27] If Rachel does strike this one.
[1:08:29] The racial district, they value the invention and ownership.
[1:08:37] The different taxing isn't
[1:08:55] really not
[1:08:57] have access to all of the right information.
[1:09:00] She just provides any things.
[1:09:05] It could do it if the principal district didn't.
[1:09:09] We hire them on tax.
[1:09:11] We can count the tax.
[1:09:12] Oh, okay.
[1:09:13] So we had your contract to do that for,
[1:09:21] but we would have our own.
[1:09:22] Yeah.
[1:09:23] To do this.
[1:09:24] I can re-talk.
[1:09:26] I can't really for cities to take my time.
[1:09:36] Which is that contract to service.
[1:09:40] It's in the budget.
[1:09:42] You guys are good to get through all that.
[1:09:45] What
[1:09:49] was our city budget last year, total?
[1:09:52] It's all about it.
[1:09:53] Yeah.
[1:09:55] Nine points.
[1:09:56] Something wasn't it?
[1:09:57] Yeah.
[1:09:57] I was in there.
[1:09:57] It's going to
[1:10:00] get all the vans out in the yard, but you can tell me why you're not going to be telling by anything.
[1:10:13] I just think about operating pledging.
[1:10:25] How much different this year?
[1:10:52] Yeah, I'm not surprised.
[1:10:55] Because we issued 400 new residential building permits last year, 400.
[1:11:01] So we'll do that again this year.
[1:11:03] It looks a lot different.
[1:11:04] Yeah, I think so.
[1:11:10] Yeah.
[1:11:13] Right.
[1:11:13] Yeah.
[1:11:14] Right.
[1:11:16] Especially if interest rates just lay down.
[1:11:21] I got to go down.
[1:11:25] It's one of those just keep it from increasing things.
[1:11:28] I don't want to go down.
[1:11:31] I'll stay with my two percent.
[1:11:34] He has a good job of managing the market.
[1:11:44] What?
[1:11:44] I was a little
[1:11:54] scared.
[1:11:55] I was a little scared.
[1:11:56] I was a little scared.
[1:11:56] I was a little scared.
[1:11:56] I was a little scared.
[1:11:56] website if you have any data.com, C-I-D-O-I, I've been data, like Ops, Bay, we're
[1:12:05] really impressed with this big supplement number of pledges for easily in the US. It's
[1:12:10] a very cool site, so you're in a restaurant in how safe Justin is compared to North
[1:12:18] We can actually have a
[1:12:33] comment on that resident survey.
[1:12:37] I may or may not have completed it four times.
[1:13:01] I think some sort of traceability would have been important on that, you know, whether
[1:13:09] There'd be your email address or something, so literally I opened it on several different
[1:13:13] browsers and computers, so I was like, did I do this one?
[1:13:17] And I read the questions and, oh yeah, I did do this one.
[1:13:21] What?
[1:13:27] I have a 12-year-old little girl landing on Wednesday that I haven't seen in a year.
[1:13:34] I'm probably not really here Thursday.
[1:13:35] I have to say about this, because I'm in a great question, because there's one thing I
[1:13:42] can ask about.
[1:13:44] How did you know that the heritage and greatness aren't doing this, because they say therapy and justice?
[1:13:51] Well, this isn't unique.
[1:13:54] I had people, because they didn't tell me that I had people,
[1:14:26] I just feel like the accuracy my
[1:14:29] be in question when I know that I opened it on several browsers and it didn't
[1:14:34] stop me you know it just let me so okay I'll be
[1:14:59] I'll either watch her.
[1:15:00] I'll watch it Friday morning. I don't, I don't miss it. I just may not sit here.
[1:15:06] Right.
[1:15:09] Yeah. I just may not sit in this room.
[1:15:20] They went to everybody. I mean, it was published on the website and it was published on all the social media. Basically, anybody on social media could click that link.
[1:15:31] I had my friends and neighbors in New York doing it.
[1:15:36] No, I didn't do that. But it would work. I mean, they could have easily clicked a link from
[1:16:17] So, next time, I'm going to invite you to think about recall initiative of referendum.
[1:16:24] That's Article 7.
[1:16:25] We'll probably want to jump to Article 9, which is fairly straightforward, that you're
[1:16:31] using franchises.
[1:16:33] And I think that will get us, many times it's still in public records and legal provisions
[1:16:57] all by itself. All right, so let's don't do it next time. Let's get all that other stuff.
[1:17:02] So that would be the 15th and then I think there's one more piece.
[1:17:09] Okay.
[1:17:10] Okay.
[1:17:14] So we try to target it for the 29th.
[1:17:21] And then that's all for us in a position where the next meeting we could do the right line
[1:17:33] And either one of those two I mean
[1:17:36] if you want to start out with
[1:17:45] I don't have a 20.
[1:17:47] I don't have a 20.
[1:17:53] I don't have an online.
[1:17:55] I don't think it was not the point of that.
[1:18:00] That also means that.
[1:18:02] Yeah, it's a month.
[1:18:05] And be here, would you be available the next day, the Tuesday?
[1:18:10] I'm not talking about
[1:18:15] the Thursday.
[1:18:16] Not the 29th.
[1:18:18] Instead of the 29th or the 30th, or the 20th.
[1:18:33] Thank you.
[1:18:39] I'm tired. I couldn't even respond. I apologize.
[1:18:43] Monday's your best for me.
[1:18:47] Rather than push it to that
[1:18:53] first
[1:19:11] one,
[1:19:18] Okay, so we'll look at the 50 in that stand alone ethics.
[1:19:24] I'm prepared and then I will.
[1:19:27] Great
[1:19:30] play, babe.
[1:19:40] You sound good to me. That sounds great.
[1:19:45] Babes chicken.
[1:19:49] is that in the budget?
[1:19:53] We are only doing one meeting for July. I think
[1:20:00] we can make a
[1:20:19] I cannot thank you very much folks I appreciate you
