[0:00] We'll bring this meeting back to order just
[0:03] for information. We had a council member that
[0:05] was having little health problems so we called
[0:08] an ambulance for it. And he's doing fine.
[0:11] Just precaution. Thank you for your concern. Seven
[0:16] eighteen. Present the winner of the Dutch Safety
[0:23] Art Contact. Keep Seville Beautiful Commission will present
[0:28] it. Face this. I feel like I need
[0:36] to face that way. I'm not quite sure.
[0:40] So glad to be here. My name is
[0:41] Donna Hudson. I am with the beautiful board
[1:41] So, we all can rally together as part
[1:43] of the community of the city, Singapore Beautiful,
[1:45] except how can we partner with the school?
[1:47] And so, again, overjoyed that I was able
[1:50] to go to Seatingville Elementary School and spoke
[1:52] with the administration staff there and they were
[1:54] willing to partner with us. So, we were
[1:56] able to pilot a program to do a
[1:58] duct safety art contest. Again, I'm so excited
[2:02] about that and I'm so excited with the
[2:03] school. That's what it's about. Getting the government
[2:06] and school and community all partnered together because
[2:09] that's what we were able to do. We
[2:10] were able to get with Think about elementary.
[2:12] They're bringing it to all the schools this
[2:13] year and we started with one and I
[2:15] was so honored that they were receptive to
[2:17] that. So, yes, we'll take that on. We'll
[2:19] share that message and so again, we were
[2:22] able to get some submissions from our technicians
[2:25] to communicate for gut safety awareness. I just
[2:29] wanted to highlight a little bit about there
[2:31] was no requirement to participate in and again,
[2:33] we want to take this program and we
[2:35] have vision of what we can do with
[2:36] the next year. Now, we get this turned
[2:38] up so well. We'd like to do it
[2:39] again next year. The participation was wonderful. All
[2:43] you had to be able to do was
[2:44] draw. It wasn't about reading a the writing.
[2:46] It's just about doing your best with what
[2:48] you can do to be creative and we
[2:50] have some wonderful showcase of talent and they're
[2:52] out there in the hallway. I would encourage
[2:53] you to look at those and take a
[2:55] look at those. Also, American National to be
[3:03] able to get the bank to put the
[3:04] kids' artwork on display for the community to
[3:07] see. Again, getting the message out there, getting
[3:09] the chatter out there of what's going on
[3:11] with the ducks in our community. I did
[3:13] want to acknowledge American National Bank of Cityville
[3:16] because they were our judging panel and if
[3:18] I could just quote what the judge, they
[3:21] had a tough decision. You can see the
[3:23] photos out there, the artwork out here. This
[3:26] was from the the manager, miss Katrina. All
[3:30] the entries were so unique and that's what
[3:32] I can really appreciate. There was there was
[3:34] no rules on what they could do. They
[3:36] came up with but everyone was so unique
[3:38] and she said, I was genuinely impressed by
[3:41] the creativity and artistic approach. It definitely wasn't
[3:44] an easy decision. So, out of all the
[3:47] submissions, it was not an easy decision for
[3:49] them to be able to come up with
[3:50] the winner. I did want to, we were
[3:53] able to, we had, we have a top
[3:54] five and we have a grand prize winner.
[3:57] There was a Esther, Camilla, Lizzus, Luna, Emily,
[4:02] and Kimberly. Those are the ones that submitted.
[4:04] We don't have their names by their artwork.
[4:06] We want the judging panel to see that.
[4:08] So, very much to see all their artwork
[4:09] out there. Asking, would you like to partner
[4:25] with us? And they were. I was so
[4:27] overjoyed that Sonic was wanting to partner with
[4:29] us to be able to give a reward
[4:31] for the children. Megalitos, they gave out were
[4:34] able to support us. They got candy for
[4:36] the children. It's wonderful. Every classroom at Signal
[4:39] Elementary got a bag of candy from Megalitos.
[4:42] and also Inkit and Crandall. They donated a
[4:45] wonderful prize. They're at the winner. We'll be
[4:47] able to get 12 T shirts of their
[4:49] own their own design and that's in their
[4:51] gift basket as well. I just wanted to
[4:53] acknowledge it as well as Gordon Gordon Barbershop.
[4:55] He donated as well as a cash prize
[4:57] for the winner. And overjoyed that the community
[4:58] It's from Megalitos. We have Super One Foods
[5:02] businesses were able to partner with our local
[5:05] education system to partner with us here today
[5:07] and how we're impacting the community. At this
[5:11] time, I would love to present the winner
[5:14] of the award and so that was one
[5:16] of the wonderful things as well. Here you
[8:36] go. Cash that for that young man. For
[8:43] There you go. Alright. I don't know if
[8:45] taking you going to a bank with something
[8:46] like that yet. But we do have Thank
[9:45] you so much for your time. Thank you.
[9:47] Thank you. You. Thank you, Karen for coming
[9:49] out for all your Thank you, Jesus. Thank
[9:51] you. I wish you'd get excited. Alright. Well,
[10:10] moving on to item number six, the mayor's
[10:13] report. The city is accepting applications from residents
[10:17] that would like to volunteer to serve on
[10:21] the city board. Don't delay and apply by

[10:46] dates for the city council are June 9

[10:52] tonight. Maybe they'll continue with this. Public comment
[10:56] period. Agenda item number seven. The portion of
[11:01] the meeting is like each speaker up to
[11:03] six minutes to address the city council. The
[11:05] city council may not discuss these items but
[11:08] staff may respond but factual or policy information
[11:13] as needed. We have one speaker. Todd Bricey.
[11:20] Just come to the front please. Say your
[11:29] last name for me. Brisbane. Alright. Todd Brisbane.
[11:32] Three ten. I called wrong, bro. Oh, what'd
[11:33] you call it? I said Bryce. I answered
[11:35] anything so. Oh. Pretty much. Me too. So,
[11:39] anyways, council, y'all know why I'm here. Same
[11:41] thing. We got a major problem. I don't
[11:45] really care about the OCDC. Let's care about
[11:46] my road because I was promised a single
[11:49] dwelling area to live at when I bought
[11:51] my home and my property, single dwelling. I
[11:54] was talking to y'all last time I was
[11:56] here about the, well, we knew of at
[11:58] that time, three homes that have been turned
[12:02] into now duplexes but it's been brought to
[12:04] my kitchen now. There's a fourth one on
[12:05] there. So, half half of our street is
[12:08] becoming duplexes which is multi dwelling and of
[12:13] course, we're in a single dwelling area which
[12:15] is causing a lot of issues for us
[12:17] out there where we're living at. Again, I'll
[12:20] get you guys. I I haven't sent this
[12:22] over to the city yet because I just
[12:23] got this information but I will get the
[12:26] address over to you guys. The other addresses
[12:28] that I've come to but really need to
[12:30] stay on top of this multi dwelling situation
[12:34] because it's not more of talk to people
[12:36] in a community too. Like, this is not
[12:38] only going on on Galena. This is going
[12:40] on multiple places throughout Cityville where they're just
[12:43] turning homes into duplexes and got multiple people
[12:47] there. Like across the street from my house,
[12:49] I got six men, no women, no kids.
[12:52] But I got men over there hollering at
[12:54] my kids and and my kids are young
[12:56] as 25 up to 35, right? And they're
[12:59] hollering at my daughters walking up there, you
[13:01] know? Hey, girl. No, it's just not going
[13:03] to work for me. I'm asking for help
[13:05] before I end up down here in Ray
[13:07] Station because I'm having to defend my family
[13:09] and that's what it's going like my hands
[13:11] are tied. I can't stand there and just
[13:12] let these guys pull that. I gotta, you
[13:15] see what I'm saying? But I really need
[13:16] some help with trying to remedy this issue.
[13:19] So that business or whoever's renting these houses
[13:22] to put these workers in there. Take them
[13:24] somewhere else. Either out of the multi dwelling,
[13:27] you know. We're we're single dwelling. So, that's
[13:30] all I got. Other than that, thank you
[13:32] all so much for all your hard work
[13:33] and I appreciate you coming back here. Thank
[13:35] you. Thank there any more that filled out
[13:41] a public speaking card? Alright. So, snow, we'll
[13:52] move to agenda item number eight. Consider approving
[13:55] the city council meeting minutes from 05/05/2025, May
[13:59] '12, '20 '20 '5, number nine. Sorry. I'm
[14:06] not supposed to. Okay. This is consent agenda
[14:14] item and vote be approved. Consent agenda items
[14:20] eight through 11. Motion. Motion's made and seconded.
[14:31] All in favor. None opposed. Four zero. Moving
[14:41] to regular agenda. Number 12, discuss and consider
[14:44] resolution except for the preliminary service and assessment
[14:48] plan for improving area number three projects within
[14:51] the Stonehaven Public Improvement District, setting a date
[14:56] for public hearing on the proposed levy of
[14:59] assessments, authorizing the publication of notice, and interacting
[15:04] other provisions related there too. Project analyst, Jamie
[15:10] Shuttle with PG with P three works will
[15:15] present this. Good evening, mayor and council. I'm
[15:18] Jamie Schulte of P three Works, the city's
[15:20] pit administrator. The agenda item in front of
[15:24] you tonight is the resolution to call the
[15:26] public hearing levying assessments on Improvement Area 3.
[15:29] Improvement Area 3 will be the final improvement
[15:31] area of this public improvement district. So we
[15:34] created this pit back in September 2021. We
[15:37] levied on I 1 in July 2023, and
[15:40] we levied on I 2 in September 2024.
[15:43] So, this is just the next step in
[15:45] the process. We aren't approving anything tonight, just
[15:48] setting the public hearing for June 16 where
[15:50] you will then consider the ordinance loving assessments
[15:53] on that property. Attached to that resolution, you'll
[15:56] find the preliminary service and assessment plan. This
[15:59] is substantially in the form of the service
[16:00] assessment plan you'll see and consider approving on
[16:03] June 16. So if you have questions on
[16:05] that document or on the pit itself, I'm
[16:07] happy to answer it. Any questions? Yep. Yep.
[16:17] It's two twenty six logs, about 6,000,000 in
[16:20] assessments, very similar to the other two. Got
[16:30] motion and a second to approve agenda item
[16:34] number 12. All in favor? None opposed. Thank
[16:40] you. Agenda item number 13, consider approving a
[16:47] resolution on privacy of matter to execute applicant
[16:50] for the East Farmer Road to the physical
[16:54] year 2025, Dallas County Community Development Block Grant
[16:58] for road reconstruction project. Director of public works,
[17:01] Chris Ryan. Good evening, mayor council, city manager.
[17:08] A map is in front of y'all here.
[17:10] The 2023 funding the county should be starting
[17:12] on pretty soon. It starts at Hall Street
[17:15] and goes to just past Quinet. Tonight, I'm
[17:19] here for application for the 2025 funding, which
[17:22] we will receive in October, which will probably
[17:24] be done next year. The orange section is
[17:30] 3,450 foot, and that's what we have the
[17:34] funding for. It's $329,000. Tonight, I'm here to
[17:39] ask if we would like to extend that
[17:41] to finish out the road of East Farmers.
[17:44] The additional yellow section of 59,800 will get
[17:48] us to the concrete that Siegelville Farms put
[17:51] in. And then if we want to extend
[17:54] the green section also to get us all
[17:56] the way to Simons, the totals there are
[17:58] 153,400. I did get a quote from Anderson
[18:02] Asphalt on the additional, and the quote I
[18:05] was given is $316,200. The difference on the
[18:10] two is the same amount of base, but
[18:13] Anderson is six inches of asphalt where the
[18:15] county is only two inches of asphalt. $3.16
[18:22] 2 hundred hundred. No. It's not plus. The
[18:33] two sections added together are the 1 50
[18:35] 3 4 hundred. Green and yellow together. Yes,
[18:38] sir. Yep. What we're seeing is about eight
[18:47] years on the road, eight to ten years.
[18:49] And the county's roads are probably less than
[18:54] that. Anderson are eight to ten. The county
[18:56] roads are more, I mean, recently, the last
[19:00] work they did for us last summer looks
[19:01] really good. I mean, I would say a
[19:04] fair number for them are probably five to
[19:06] six years versus eight to ten years. Malloy
[19:10] has been the exception. I think we're nine
[19:12] years in on Malloy, it still looks really
[19:14] good on this side here. Anderson did Malloy.
[19:18] That was their first project here in CBL.
[19:21] Tonight, we're just looking for a direction. We
[19:32] could could just go with the orange section
[19:34] or we could add the yellow or add
[19:37] the yellow and green. It's totally up to
[19:38] y'all. But come back in five years, there
[19:43] might be another $100,000 on top of that
[19:45] cost. Two. I go with the the Anderson
[19:51] project. Go with Anderson? So, with the county,
[19:56] we're going to do the orange and then
[19:57] y'all want to see about doing Anderson on
[19:59] the yellow and green. That's going to be
[20:01] next budget. I'll have to bring that in
[20:02] if the funds are available. This funding for
[20:06] the the green section, green and yellow would
[20:08] be next budget too. We would pay for
[20:10] that through the county. Yeah, because the the
[20:13] orange is the county fund. Right. And, potentially,
[20:24] also, if we wait on it, we could
[20:26] have the, property there developed to the south
[20:29] and put in two lanes for us. Also,
[20:33] I'm saying the south on this map. It's
[20:34] actually the north if you're out there. Okay.
[20:41] So we're just gonna submit for our 329,000.
[21:02] Alright. Thank you all. I need a motion.
[21:19] Second to your motion. Got a motion and
[21:22] a second on item number 13 is read.
[21:25] All in favor? None opposed. Item 14, discuss
[21:32] consider the selection of mayor pro temp twenty
[21:35] twenty five to 2026. Every year, after the
[21:40] election, the city council must select council members
[21:43] service Mayor Pro Tem. Mayor Pro Tem steps
[21:45] in as needed. If the mayor is not
[21:47] available, the current mayor of council member, mister
[21:51] John Epps. I thank you for your service
[21:53] during this your time. Is there any council
[21:57] member that would like to serve or is
[21:59] there any nominations? Throw my hat in the
[22:02] ring. Item 15, out of the community, interest
[23:15] in council member report, mister Nantis. I'm number
[23:33] 16 executive session. The council will convene into
[23:37] the close executive session to Suncor Texas government
[23:40] code section five five one point o seven
[23:43] four, personnel matters to deliberate the appointment, employment,
[23:47] evaluation, reassignment, duties, discipline, or dismissal of public
[23:51] officer or employee with city manager. Time is
