[0:00] There's a lot going on. This is a working session on the board on Monday, October, September 28th, 2026, at 12, 46 p.m.
[0:30] And I'm kind of speaking out of terms.
[0:32] I might go away and fill out a little bit in total.
[0:34] But essentially phase one has been completed.
[0:36] I think there's three more phases to go from a residential
[0:39] standpoint.
[0:41] And then they're talking about doing a water park at some point
[0:44] on this under construction.
[0:46] Water park's under construction.
[0:48] They still plan to do the boardwalk with all the different
[0:50] shops.
[0:51] And they're finishing up to the parking garage.
[0:54] Basically, when you drive by a black leather
[0:56] right now, there's a big underground parking
[0:58] the drug that they could work on for three, four years at this point.
[1:03] So hopefully we've finished the parking garage, get that done.
[1:06] And then they've said, the forward walk comes next,
[1:09] which is really important to the items because we have a lot of sales tax
[1:12] that would come into the shops and the restaurants that are there.
[1:14] Kind of at this point, you know, the goal of items has been to attract,
[1:20] like, the resort commercial retirement kind of businesses.
[1:25] And that's what we've learned using for, uh, sync up practice basically, is that we're
[1:31] going to go all on this, we're going to track people, we're going to track people through
[1:34] two of them, three of them.
[1:35] And we've brought some sort of stuff, and that's going to pay you for the tax and items.
[1:39] Um, so we're really excited to get the board walking complete, because we think that'll
[1:42] help us.
[1:43] We just have a property tax increase, which is pretty, uh, nasty to get through.
[1:49] What do you run out of the six sides of it?
[1:50] We're on the side of that kind of past, I'm talking, so I'm going to say unfortunately,
[1:57] past, but whatever maybe I think is black as it continues, it allows me to be a asset
[2:06] to our community.
[2:08] I get similar to the high-density stuff.
[2:10] There's a lot of nimbianism in items where people don't want to see black as they're
[2:20] that we've already started with this part.
[2:23] I don't think we want CFDL, so I don't think we need it to succeed, don't you think?
[2:28] It seems like there's a pretty deep pocket stripe in that thing.
[2:30] I don't know whose pockets they are, I wish I knew them.
[2:33] Recapables, the investor, I'm not sure who all makes that up,
[2:36] but it seems like they're funding everything.
[2:38] I think, like, whether it's been operating or lost from the beginning,
[2:42] so their investors are continuing.
[2:44] I heard that they got like a hundred million dollars
[2:47] federal grant, or some kind, that on the down part, it was not any private money. It was a federal source money.
[2:54] That's interesting.
[2:56] I need a federal grant for me.
[3:03] Patrick said there are a recent business meeting that expects in five years that they will be crossing six billion,
[3:14] in retail or what?
[3:16] Yeah, well, the entire black desert
[3:19] operation would be grossing $60,000,000.
[3:23] So we'll see, the hotel complex
[3:28] and everything is mostly done.
[3:31] Or gets are so done.
[3:34] But that doesn't look like school
[3:37] populations, I think,
[3:39] There's an entirely transient people.
[3:42] Well, the employees run that $60 billion
[3:45] organization on the end of the year.
[3:47] I'm going to fix it.
[3:48] Yeah.
[3:50] It might affect the world, if that's going to continue to grow.
[3:53] And because there's, you know, all I think,
[3:58] businesses in the community are going to be able to look
[4:00] service-field by black people as we do.
[4:02] We will provide easy living for those people
[4:06] that I never see it before.
[4:07] So that's my question is, so when they came and presented to us, they said that they
[4:13] were going to have, I want to say it was 2400, basically hourly workers there, service
[4:21] industry workers there.
[4:24] That's a huge strain on the entire community to provide housing
[4:31] for $2,700 or $2,400 additional low-income people because they said that there was going
[4:41] to, does anybody remember, 60 or 70 of the jobs were going to pay over $50,000 a year.
[4:47] The rest of them were under that and so that's basically service industry jobs.
[4:53] How do we deal with that because they're already struggling across the service industries,
[5:01] and their restaurants are going out of business, their hotels are complaining,
[5:06] there's a gun to several different meetings on affordable housing,
[5:10] and it seems like they're being driven by the service industry saying we can't get enough people,
[5:14] but at the same time, the service industry keeps expanding dramatically
[5:20] when there's no place for the people to live here now that are working in it.
[5:31] It's not like the other, but it's also impacting the police department, the fire department,
[5:35] where people are just joining public safety camp for the living.
[5:39] And I myself, they're on our police officer for fire fired for us, but they don't live in our community.
[5:44] And it's a lot of people are community from either Mesquite or from Long Island,
[5:49] like the more affordable areas where they're coming from.
[5:51] The unfortunate thing to your point is that's not like a long-term solution.
[5:55] That's going to get a little pretty fast.
[5:56] So what we've seen, our retention go way down.
[6:00] And I think what does it look like?
[6:03] What's the same thing?
[6:04] Over time.
[6:05] But what's happening right now?
[6:07] Is there a community in front of the scene for long-value or other parts of the valley?
[6:12] There are many people who think real lives.
[6:14] There's got to be people taking part in this sector and these jobs.
[6:18] I mean, it's nice to build these $2 million homes and shut the door, but we have to have people that are going to be able to serve the city.
[6:27] In the days, I hope you can get your civil stuff going, because we need all throughout the county, we need all our internal housing.
[6:37] And it's been an issue for five, ten years, and it's been an issue.
[6:41] It's all the way that you can address that from a municipality standpoint.
[6:46] You know, we wish there was more we could do.
[6:49] We have to hire teachers to 100 of them every year.
[6:53] Okay, well, we can pay them and they can't afford to live in this area.
[6:58] It seems very challenging to be able to do.
[7:02] It is about as we kind of recover that.
[7:04] It doesn't even necessarily continue to plan.
[7:06] What other questions, or any of the other questions
[7:09] provided in the city, do you have?
[7:11] It doesn't appear that there is any significant
[7:16] long-term family-aged growth in items,
[7:22] maybe those individual block projects,
[7:24] but there's no, until settler or whatever comes to table,
[7:29] I haven't heard anything that says,
[7:32] expect it in bunch of kids.
[7:34] This is one of the more important things that we could do, not a lot, but the latest version has a hundred and a hundred or less affordable.
[7:49] There are just three times in scope.
[7:53] and that's still four or five years out for completion.
[7:57] So I think that the family in our population
[8:00] can be put back in time.
[8:02] And that's why it was a four-cliff,
[8:04] was that a couple years ago?
[8:06] Was that a few school outside?
[8:07] I'm pretty opposed to that.
[8:08] I know right now the core of some of that.
[8:14] But what schools are there?
[8:17] We have right now in the laboratory,
[8:18] it's what's the answer to that?
[8:20] Senator Clara Sunsay.
[8:22] Can you speak about population?
[8:26] How do we do it as far as the red mountain elementary has a decrease in it?
[8:33] When it's probably about 350 more, maybe about 400 more.
[8:41] Yeah, and one of his kids are bussion from, let's say, his family are here with a pool bus.
[8:52] Definitely decreased over the years, but they're kind of steady at the moment.
[8:56] They're not necessarily building out anymore.
[8:59] It's flattened out.
[9:02] What about Santa Clara?
[9:04] I'm Santa Clara, it's the same, it's the same pre-statement.
[9:07] they get go through period where they increase their enrollment, but it's they're pretty
[9:13] staying right now at about 400 kids, or 25 or so.
[9:19] Then arrowheads down there as well.
[9:21] And then the Sunset narrowhead, how are they also there all those schools out there?
[9:27] There are only 100 students, just depends on which school somewhere.
[9:32] Well, Errol has a little bit closer to 500, but there's time for it to do this.
[9:37] It's not that interesting.
[9:38] The interesting thing about Sunset is that it has the ability to do this,
[9:42] I don't know, cranking it in only those close words.
[9:45] It's a large section of apartments.
[9:47] And I think that's the overall housing that people hold on to.
[9:52] So, Sunset, I don't think it's seen quite clearly in Sunset.
[9:57] I think what happens over there is that you've got a lot of young kids, but when those
[10:06] kids get older they leave and they don't see you in the middle of the high schools.
[10:12] But you do wish up the kids and you're still in your town.
[10:21] Do you know much about them as far as I'm wrong and I'm not sure?
[10:25] No.
[10:25] We're happy that they sometimes let us use their facilities for various things a little
[10:31] night.
[10:34] They've added, they've been adding, adding students, they're like 11, 1200 kids now.
[10:41] 11-1200.
[10:42] Yeah.
[10:49] But I hope to get you an extra round.
[10:51] Yeah.
[10:52] And luckily it's been your direct department.
[10:55] Yeah.
[10:57] And it's just more happy than that.
[10:59] And that is all that I'm concerned about.
[11:02] We really don't trip trips.
[11:07] We'll try to keep you up.
[11:07] Just a
[11:11] long time.
[11:14] That seems a good relationship.
[11:17] Because we're still occupant.
[11:18] We're occupant.
[11:19] We're occupant.
[11:20] What
[11:22] can we do from a city standpoint that's not just
[11:25] So that was the general, when you did it on the iron.
[11:33] I'd say you're doing one of the best you just keep the lines open.
[11:37] So we can power against things, come up and come up and find out what's going on there.
[11:43] Occasionally, I'm not getting pretty well.
[11:45] So we'll wait back.
[11:49] So I think that we're all constantly in the loft at part of the place.
[11:55] And since we're not being recorded, my experience with Silla, it's not quick.
[12:06] It's slow, it's slow.
[12:09] I think we were only maybe twice grand, you've done two pieces for them.
[12:15] And it was slow.
[12:18] And part of that was they had to change over the characters and something died.
[12:41] And I appreciate your remembering the importance of housing because growth is a challenge.
[12:46] The shrinking is a hundred times more painful.
[12:50] And I hope that, you know, the community's realized the vibrancy of having some youth and some kids and the kids' boyband that goes away.
[12:59] It has been a pain in this process. Building schools, I mean, we've got schools that have been on board for a long time.
[13:04] We've got schools sometimes of an elementary year or so.
[13:08] But the painful process is closing with way worse than the process of building a new one.
[13:14] I'd rather build a new one any day.
[13:15] Okay, you know, so yeah, you need some families in that community, they can't just all be retired folks.
[13:24] So I appreciate your thinking about fighting those battles and remembering that.
[13:30] Good luck.
[13:33] We appreciate.
[13:36] Go ahead.
[13:40] You know, in some of the other communities, Santa Clara's really took a number, I know you guys have a great veterans presence out there with the home.
[13:48] And when you ask what you could do, that might be something to wash the city or a city.
[13:54] St. George's and Santa Clara are really skeptical.
[13:57] And so, kind of look at that resource.
[14:01] You have that wealth of veterans out there.
[14:05] Also, the veterans that have passed away.
[14:07] And maybe look at see how you're sitting could support that.
[14:11] And what we'll try to do that too, but we've got it this year.
[14:15] That's going to stay on the 11th, the 11th again.
[14:18] What is our 11th?
[14:19] We did that for three two.
[14:20] And so, that would be something I'd encourage you to do.
[14:23] Talk amongst your thing.
[14:24] It doesn't take a lot.
[14:25] We have some schools that are decorating all the veterans' graves at air-city
[14:33] cemetery.
[14:34] It doesn't take a big resource at all, but it's a very memorable thing.
[14:38] It's a greater study in the American history of the US history of that year.
[14:42] Maybe see how you work.
[14:44] It's a great message.
[14:48] It's a tight generation together, so that might give something you can take back and
[14:52] How can we as a city councilor city get our youth in Paul and honoring our veterans?
[15:01] Yeah, she knew very, and it's the, and our recent customers are some of the best in the United States, and all of our communities are great. But just maybe that what we like about that one second kind of study, who those people are on the cemetery and say, maybe they don't have any grandkids or live-servedly comment, they never get visited, kind of adoptive grave, kind of a thing to throw that out there. But we, we see the challenge you have in a lot of these other challenges too.
[15:29] with just no place to live for our new, for our children, our kids all the way through it.
[15:37] So, you know, those that are fighting about, you know, so the affordable housing is down, down there, towards the airport.
[15:43] And our elementary down there is exploding, and we've had to keep re-boundering to keep them from, but that's where families are going.
[15:49] And it comes with its own challenges, but I happen to have family member of the bot down there, but there's also a sense of vibrancy that comes from,
[15:57] trying to treat the senior families and kids, you know, parts that are fallen. I mean, it really
[16:03] adds, so I mean, it would be nice if there was a spot I was that looked like that in
[16:07] the spot, so you know, not just down there.
[16:12] We'll do what we can to move. I've been sitting
[16:18] from the district's perspective, and we hope the same. We're a little troubled because of
[16:25] the lowering of homes and some of our schools,
[16:27] law and our schools.
[16:29] And then there's so many factors
[16:31] going to that including economy,
[16:34] affordable housing and everything.
[16:36] So whatever you can do on your behalf to help mitigate that.
[16:42] We think we have a really good product.
[16:45] I'm sure this does as well.
[16:48] I think sometimes we get less district and public ed,
[16:50] it's a little aligned up fairly,
[16:52] particularly in Washington County because we have a wonderful product, a great
[16:58] people, a great channel, looking after the new students. We hope that is kind of the
[17:04] best season for the front of the center and the municipality as well, not again, as you know, right?
[17:11] We continue to strive to do the best we can to prepare every student a great chance for
[17:17] education for us. So, we'll continue to promote what I've been sending, hopefully that would be something to do as we work with this year as well.
[17:28] Great hope to have you, and I appreciate the service that you're in here with me.
[17:34] Whatever we can do, we have this wonderful staff here, as you know, as well, in a way certainly the board is unified, and our relationship is with you as well.
[17:44] as well. Getting grateful to have you here and we can do to help you let us know. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
[17:53] Thank you for having me. Thank you.
[17:55] Thank you. Thank you.
[17:56] Thank you.
[18:01] We'll turn to the other room.
