>> YOU'RE VERY WELCOME >> ALL RIGHT. TONIGHT IS SO VERY EXCITING FOR THE ROWLETT POLICE DEPARTMENT. THIS IS MY FIRST OPPORTUNITY TO GET TO PROMOTE SOMEBODY SO WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO DO IS CALL TIM, ANTHONY AND DAN TO THE FRONT AND DAN IF WOW WOULD PLEASE BRING YOUR FAMILY. THE ROUGH LET POLICE DEPARTMENT HAS EXPERIENCED A LOT OF CHANGE OVER THE LAST SEVERAL MONTHS. WE'VE HAD NUMEROUS RETIREMENTS AND IN RESPONSE TO THAT WE HAVE HAD A LOT OF PROMOTIONS. THESE ARE THE LAST OF THOSE PROMOTIONS.

THIS WILL HOPEFULLY MAKE US FULL AND CIRCLE US OUT. I WOULD LIKE TO READ A BAYOU FOR EACH OF THESE 3 YES WHO HAVE PHENOMENAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND THEN WE'RE GOING TO PROCEED WITH AN OATH OF HONOR AND THEN THEY'RE GOING TO DO A BADGE OPINIONING.

I PROMISE THIS WON'T TAKE LONGER THAN 40 TO 45 MINUTES. I WOULD LIKE TO BEGINNING WITH TIM. TONIGHT IS A HUGE CELEBRATION FOR ME.

I'M SO VERY EXCITED. I HOPE THESE 3 GENTLEMEN ARE JUST AS EXCITED.

TIM HAS BEEN WITH THE ROUGH LET POLICE DEPARTMENT SINCE NOVEMBER 26 OF 2008.

TIM WAS INITIALLY ASSIGNED TO PATROL GIVE ADVICE WHERE HE CONTINUES TO WORK TODAY.

TIM WAS PROMOTED TO CORPORAL ON JANUARY 26, 2017. TIM SERVES IN NUMEROUS CAPACITIES WITHIN THE DEPARTMENT INCLUDING FIELD TRAINING FIREARMS INSTRUCTOR AND HE SERVES ON THE ROUGH LET POLICE SWAT TEAM. TIM AND HIS WIFE TONIA HAVE 4 CHILDREN. ANYBODY SEE THE THEME? TIM HOLDS A BACHELOR'S DEGREE FROM THE VUN FRERS I THINK OF TEXAS AND HE SERVES IN THE U.S. AIR FORCE.

SOMETHING EXTREMELY ABOUT TIM IS TODAY IS HIS 19TH WEDDING AN VERSE TARLY.

SO CONGRATULATION -- ANNIVERSARY. TIM'S WIFE AND FAMILY COULDN'T MAKE IT TODAY AS YOU CAN FIGURE OUT WITH 4 CHILDREN IN THE HOUSE THEY'RE VERY BUSY.

[00:05:01]

HE'S A NEW LIEUTENANT WITH THE ROUGH LET POLICE DEPARTMENT. ANTHONY BEGAN HIS LAW ENFORCEMENT CAREER WITH THE ROUGH LET POLICE DEPARTMENT ON FEBRUARY 5TH 1998.

HE HAS BEEN WITH THE POLICE DEPARTMENT A VERY LONG TIME. HE WAS ASSIGNED TO PATROL AND IN 1999 HE WAS NAMED ROOKIE OF THE YEAR. ON JUNE 1S 2,000 ANTHONY WAS AWARDED THE RANK OF CORPORAL. ON JANUARY 15TH 2004 HE CONTINUED HIS MOVE UP THE RANKS AND ACHIEVED SERGEANT. ANTHONY ATTAINED HIS INSTRUCTOR CERTIFICATION WHICH HE HAS USED IN TRAINING CLASSES FOR NEW POLICE RECRUITS AND DEPARTMENT FIREARMS TRAINING LGCH ANTHONY WAS A VITAL MEMBER SWAT TEAM FOR NUMEROUS YEARS WHERE HE GAINED THE POSITION OF TEAM LEADER.

ANTHONY IS CURRENTLY ASSIGNED TO PATROL DIVISION AND LEASE RESPONSIBLE FOR OUR TRAFFIC DIVISION. AS WELL AS THE COMMERCIAL MOTOR VEHICLE UNIT.

ANTHONY IS A MILITARY VETERAN OF THE U.S. NAVY AND HOLDS A BACHELOR'S DEGREE.

AND THE LIGHT OF HIS LIFE IS HIS DAUGHTER ANNA. SHE'S 14 YEARS OLD.

SHOWS EXTREMELY ACTIVE AND SHE COULD NOT MAKE IT TONIGHT BUT I'M SURE SHE SENDS HER BEST FOR HER DAD. CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU, ANTHONY.

>> AND OUR 3RD CELEBRATION TONIGHT IS DAN MILLER. DAN MILLER WAS HIRED BY THE ROUGH LET POLICE DEPARTMENT ON FEBRUARY 12, 2004. HE ATTENDED THE BASIC PEACE OFFICER LAW ENFORCEMENT ACADEMY AND I OBTAINED HIS LICENSE IN UNION 2004.

DAN WAS SWORN IN -- JUNE 2004. HE WAS SWORN IN ON JULY 62004. AS WITH MOST POLICE OFFICERS DAN WAS ASSIGNED TO PATROL AND HE WAS ASSIGNED TO SEVERAL UNITS INCLUDING CONTAINMENT TEAM, CRIME SCENE, FIELD TRAINING OFFICER AND LESS LETHAL INSTRUCTS TORE.

AND THEY HAVE 2 CHILDREN. SON LUKE WHO IS WITH US AND DAUGHTER GABBY WHO IS A STUDENT SO SHE COULDN'T MAKE IT TODAY. LUKE HAD A SPEECH PREPARED SO I'M SURE HE'LL HAVE SOMETHING NICE TO SAY FOR DAD IN A FEW MINUTES. THAT IN A NUTSHELL IS THE BUY GRAPH FEES FOR OUR 3 PROMOTIONS AND OUR CELEBRATIONS TONIGHT. NEXT UP -- WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO DO IS ADMINISTER THE OATH OF HONOR. WHEN A POLICE OFFICER IS HIRED WHEN THEY FIRST BECOME A POLICE OFFICER THEY TAKE AN OATH OF OFFICE.

THE OATH OF OFFICE IS THEIR ALLEGIANCE THEIR OATH THEIR SWEARING TO UPHOLD THE LAW AND A FEW OTHER THINGS THAT'S MEAN DATED BY THE STATE OF TEXAS AND OUR LICENSING ORGANIZATION AND ENTITY BUT INTERNALLY WE LOOK TO DO SOMETHING EXTRA FOR PROMOTIONS.

WE HAVE AN OATH OF HONOR. THIS ISN'T MANDATED. WE STARTED IT A COUPLE MONTHS AGO. I THINK IT'S A WAND TER FULL WAY FOR US TO REAFFIRM OUR COMMITMENT TO THE CITY THE COMMUITY SOCIETY THE LAWS AND THE DEPARTMENT.

SO IF YOU GUYS WOULD PLEASE RAISE YOUR RIGHT HAND. I'M GOING TO READ A FEW THINGS.

A FEW DEFINITIONS FIRST AND THEN YOU'RE GOING TO THE TAKE THE OATH.

I'M GOING TO ASK YOU TO HOLD YOUR HANTSDZ UP THE WHOLE TIME. BEFORE ANY OFFICER TAKES LAW ENFORCEMENT OATH OF HONOR IT IS IMPORTANT THAT HE OR SHE UNDERSTANDS WHAT IT MEANS.

AN OATH IS A SOLEMN PLEDGE SOMEONE MAKES WHEN HE OR SHE SINCE SERIALLY INTENDS TO DO WHAT HE OR SHE SAYS. A FEW DEFINITIONS THAT YOU GUYS WILL BE SPEAKING FROM.

HONOR MEANS THAT ONE APPS WORD IS GIVEN AS A GUARANTEE. BETRAY IS DEFINED AS BREAKING FAITH WITH THE PUBLIC TRUST. BADGE IS THE SYMBOL OF YOUR OFFICE.

INTEGRITY IS BEING THE SAME PERSON IN BOTH PRIVATE AND PUBLIC LIFE.

CHARACTER MEANS THE QUALITIES THAT DISTINGUISH AN INDIVIDUAL. PUBLIC TRUST IS A CHARGE OF DUTY IMPOSED IN FAITH TOWARD THOSE YOU SERVE. COURAGE IS HAVING THE STRENGTH TO WITHSTAND UNETHICAL PRESSURE FEAR OR DANGER. ACCOUNTABILITY MEANS YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE TO YOUR OATH OF OFFICE. COMMUNITY IS THE JURISDICTION

[00:10:04]

THANK YOU, GENTLEMEN. NEXT UP ONE MORE SMALL I THINK THING WE'RE GOING TO DO AS A CEREMONIAL IS THE BADGE PINNING -- CARLA MILLER IS GOING PIN ASSISTANT DAN MILLER AND I'M GOING TO OPINION SERGEANT TIM AND LIEUTENANT ANTHONY AND THEN WE'LL BE DONE I PROMISE.

>> LADIES AND GENTLEMEN MAY I PRESENT TO YOU ASSISTANCE CHIEF DANIEL SERGEANT AND LIEUTENANT.

[5C. Presentation highlighting the 2020 US Census.]

THAT WILL BE OUR ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER. >> OK.

THANK YOU, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. IT'S A PRIVILEGE TO BE HERE IN FRONT OF YOU THIS EVENING TO TALK ABOUT THE CENSUS AND WE DO HAVE A PRESENTATION BUT WE'LL SEE IF THAT GETS WORKING HERE IN A MINUTE. IT LOOKS LIKE SOMETHING IS HAPPENING.

BUT IT SEEMS LOOK WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT THE CENSUS FOR A WHILE AND IT'S BEEN ABOUT 8 MONTHS SINCE WE FORMED A COMPLETE COMMITTEE IN AUGUST. AND SO BELIEVE IT OR NOT THE 2020 CENSUS IS HERE BE DPINGING THERE WE GO. SO BEGINNING ON MARCH 12TH WHICH IS 9 DAYS FROM TODAY WHAT RESIDENTS IN ROWLETT ARE GOING TO START SEEING ARE INVITATIONS SHOW UP FROM THE CENSUS BUREAU INVITING THEM TO PARTICIPATE IN THE 2020 CENSUS AND WHAT IS DIFFERENT ABOUT THE 2020 CENSUS THAT HAS NOT BEEN THE CASE FOR ANY PREVIOUS CENSUS IS THAT RESPONSES WILL BE AVAILABLE ONLINE. AND SO BY FAR THE MOST EASY METHOD FOR INDIVIDUALS TO PARTICIPATE THIS YEAR IN GOING FORWARD WE WOULD ANTICIPATE IS ONLINE. AND SO ONCE THOSE INVITATIONS START ROLLING IN STARTING ON MARCH THE 12TH YOU GET YOUR INVITATION YOU GO TO ONLINE AND YOU PARTICIPATE AND YOU'VE DONE YOUR CIVIC DUTY AT THAT POINT BUT THOSE INVITATIONS WILL BY DISTRIBUTED BETWEEN MARCH 12TH AND MARCH 20TH. SO THE NEXT COUNCIL MEETING THE MAJORITY WILL HAVE BEEN DELIVERED TO RESIDENTS IN ROUGH LET. AND THEN -- ROW LEL ROWLETT.

THEN CENSUS DAY IS CELEBRATED NATIONWIDE. HE WE'LL TALK ABOUT THIS IN A MINUTE BUT THAT'S THE WINDOW OF TIME MARCH 12TH TO APRIL 1ST. THAT'S THE BULK OF WHEN THE CENSUS ACTIVITY IS GOING TO TAKE PLACE AND WE WOULD RECOMMEND PEOPLE PARTICIPATE TO HAVE A MAXIMUM IMPACT. WITH THE COMPLETE COUNT COMMITTEE THAT CITY COUNCIL FORMED BACK IN AUGUST OF 2019 IS PUT TOGETHER SOME OUTREACH AND ENGAGEMENT EFFORTS THAT YOU CAN SEE SUMMARIZED HERE. THERE'S A SOCIAL MEDIA CAMPAIGN THE DIGITAL SOON OUT FRONT HAS INFORMATION THAT ROTATES THROUGH. THERE ARE WATER BILL IN S CERTIFICATES THAT HAVE STARTED AND WILL GO THROUGH APRIL. A FRAME SIGNS HAVE BEEN PUT UP JUST YESTERDAY PRINTED HANDOUTS ARE AVAILABLE IN A VARIETY OF FACILITIES.

AND THEN WE HAVE A GROUP OF FOLKS THAT ARE GOING AROUND TO VARIOUS SMALL GROUPS THROUGHOUT TOWN AND MAKING PRESENTATIONS. AND THEN LIKE I MENTIONED BEFORE ON APRIL 1ST 2020 WHICH IS CENSUS DAY THERE'S GOING TO BE AN EVENT AT THE ROWLETT PUBLIC LIBRARY.

FOLKS CAN COME IN. THEY CAN LEARN ABOUT THE CENSUS. THEY CAN PARTICIPATE IN THE CENSUS. WE WILL HAVE CENSUS BUREAU WORK CUSTOMERS TO HELP PEOPLE FILL OUT THE ONLINE SURVEY AS THEY JOIN US AT THE LIBRARY. AND SO JUST A FEW FUN CENSUS FACTS. THE CENSUS IS REQUIRED. THE COUNTRY HAS BEEN DOING IT EVERY 10 YEARS SINCE 1790. THIS IS THE 24TH CENSUS THAT THE U.S. CENSUS BUREAU HAS UNDER TAKEN. IT LET'S THIS YEAR ALLOWS YOU TO RESPOND ONLINE FOR THE FIRST TIME. AGAIN THIS IS A VERY EASY WAY TO PARTICIPATE.

THE CENSUS BUREAU WE GET THIS QUESTION A LOT. THE INFORMATION IS SECURE.

IT IS CONFIDENTIAL. IT CANNOT WE USED FOR ANYTHING OTHER THAN TO MAKING A GREAT STATISTICS. SO WE WANT EVERYONE TO KNOW THAT THIS INFORMATION IS PRIVATE AND SECURE. THE DATA WILL HELP INFORM HOW BILLIONS OF DOLLARS ARE DISTRIBUTED. UP TO $675 BILLION ANNUALLY OVER THAT 10-YEAR PERIOD.

THAT IS A STAGGERING NUMBER. TO PUT IT IN PERSPECTIVE. THAT'S $2,050 FOR EVERY INDIVIDUAL IN THE UNITED STATES. EVERY YEAR. THE 2020 CENSUS WILL DETERMINE HOW CONGRESSIONAL REPRESENTATIVES ARE ASSIGNED AND HOW MUCH EACH STATE GETS.

[00:20:03]

I LIKE FORWARD TO SEEING EVERYONE APRIL 1ST AT THE LIBRARY AND LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR

PARTICIPATION IN THE CENSUS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH, MARK.

AND SO JUST WANTED TO GIVE ANOTHER PLUG FOR IT TO STUDENTS AND TO TEACHERS. I HOPE WE HAVE SOME GOOD PARTICIPATION.

>> THANK YOU SO MUCH. DON'T LOOK AT ME. >> I HAVE ONE OTHER ANNOUNCEMENT I WANT TO MAKE. WE HAVE A STAR IN OUR MIDST IN THE CITY OF ROWLETT.

AND I HOPE YOU ARE ABLE TO VIEW THE SPOTLIGHT INTERVIEW THAT I HAD IN THE MONTH OF JANUARY AND THAT WAS WITH DEREK CULPEPER. AND HE HAD HAND ANNOUNCEMENT TO MAKE BUT HE COULDN'T TELL THE PUBLIC WHAT THAT ANNOUNCEMENT WAS. THAT WAS THAT HE AND HIS DAUGHTER LINDA LOU WERE GOING TO APPEAR ON THE KELLY CLARKSON SHOULD.

THEY APPEARED ON THAT SHOW YESTERDAY AFTERNOON. I'M SURE YOU WITH ALL THE ON DEMAND T.V. I'M SURE YOU CAN PULL THAT UP AFTER THE FACT BUT DEREK CULPEPER AND HIS DAUGHTER LINDA LOU VIDEOD I THINK IT WAS AN 862ND VIDEO IS THAT HAD MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF VIEWS -- 82ND -- I THINK IT WAS THRIVE MILLION VIEWS. IT WAS ABOUT DEREK THE FATHER FIXING THE HAIR OF HIS DAUGHTER BECAUSE HIS WIFE WAS OUT OF TOWN AND HE JUST RECORDED THAT AND RECORDED THE INTERACTION BETWEEN HIMSELF AND HIS DAUGHTER. THAT WAS ONE OF THE INSPIRING VIRAL VIDEOS THAT ULTIMATELY ENDED UP BECOMING A SUBJECT MATTER OF AN OSCAR WINNING ANIMATED SHORT FILM CALLED HAIR LOVE. SO WHAT A GREAT THING.

WHAT A GREAT ROLE MODEL FOR OUR COMMUNITY. LOVE THE CULPEPER FAMILY.

AND WE APPRECIATE EVERYTHING THEY DO FOR OUR COMMUNITY. AND WE CERTAINLY APPRECIATE WHAT THEY REPRESENT IN REGARDS TO WHAT FAMILY IS ALL ABOUT. SO KUDOS IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN HIS VIDEO YOU CAN FIND IT ONLINE. JUST SEARCH CULPEPER. CERTAINLY THE ANIMATED SHORT FILM HAIR LOVE IS INCREDIBLE IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IT. IT'S VERY VERY GOOD INSPIRING STORY. AND TRY TO TYPE INTO THE KELLY CLARKSON SHOW YESTERDAY.

SO YOU'LL BE VERY IMPRESSED. >> ANYTHING ELSE COUNCIL? >> OK.

AT THIS TIME WE'LL MOVE TO OUR CITIZENS INPUT SECTION. THIS IS A TIME IN OUR MEETING WHEN ANYONE CAN SPEAK UP TO 3 MINUTES ON ANY MATTER THEY WOULD LIKE TO ADDRESS COUNCIL.

IS THERE ANYONE THAT WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK DURING CITIZENS INPUT? ALL RIGHT.

[7. CONSENT AGENDA]

>> 7-A APPROVING MINUTES. >> THANK YOU. >> COUNCILMAN MARGOLIN HAS.

>> I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE THAT ITEM. >> COUNCILMAN LANNING.

>> I'LL MOVE TO 2ND. >> CALL THE VOTE. >> THAT ITEM PASSES.

THAT'S THE SHORTEST CONSENT AGENDA WE'VE EVER HAD. ITEM 7 B I WANTED THIS PULLED

[7B. Consider approval of a contract for election services. Consider action to approve a resolution authorizing a Joint Election Contract with the Rockwall County Elections Administrator for the May 2, 2020, General Election.]

[00:30:01]

SO OUR CITY SECRETARY LAURA HALLMARK IS HERE TO GIVE US AN OVERVIEW AND TELL US WHERE WE

CURRENTLY STAND ON THIS. SO LAURA. >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL MAYOR.

AND YOU'RE PROBABLY ASKING YOURSELF WHY AM I ALREADY BACK. WE JUST DID AN APPROVAL OF CALL HAS COUNTY ELECTIONS SERVICE CONTRACT AT OUR LAST MEETING. SO I'M GLAD YOU ASKED.

SO DALLAS COUNTY AS MANY OF YOU KNOW HAS IMPLEMENTED A NEW VOTING CENTER.

IT'S CHANGED HOW THEY WORK THEIR PRECINCTS. IT'S ALLOWED VOTERS TO VOTE AT ANY DALLAS COUNTY LOCATION. WHEN BEFORE THE CONTRACT IS APPROVED WITH DALLAS COUNTY THEY HOLD A MEETING WITH ALL OF THE PARTICIPANTS WHO WILL BE CONTRACTING WITH THEM.

AT THAT MEETING THIS YEAR THEY NOTIFIED US THEY WOULD NO LONGER CONTRACT FOR SERVICES OUT OF COUNTY VOTERS. WITH THAT WE ARE NOW CONTRACTING WITH ROCKWELL COUNTY ELECTIONS TO SERVICE OUR ROWLETT VOTERS WHO RESIDE IN ROCKWELL COUNTY. THE SUBMITTED CONTRACT DESIGNATED THE EARLY VOTING AS THE ROCKWELL COUNTY LIBRARY AS WELL AS THE SAME LOCATION FOR ELECTION DAY. TO MAKE VOTING POOR CONVENIENT FOR ROWE LET ROCKWELL COUNTY RESIDENTS AT THE TIME OF THE MAY 19 ELECTION WE HAD 4,70050 REGISTERED VOTERS IN THOSE 2 PRECINCTS -- WE HAVE ASKED TO USE CULL LICENSED LAKEPOINT AS AN ELECTION DAY LOCATION BUT BECAUSE ROCKWELL I.S.D. IS NOT USING THAT LOCATION THEN BUT USING THE COUNTY LIBRARY AS THEIR ELECTION DAY LOCATION THE QUESTION IS WHETHER ALL OF THEIR PERTINENT BALLOT ITEMS WOULD BE INCLUDED. AND IF IT TURNS OUT THAT ONLY THE ROWLETT COUNCIL ITEM THEN IT'S NO LONGER CONVENIENT AND WILL LEAVE THE LOCATION AS IS TO ENABLE THE ROWLETT RESIDENTS WHO RESIDE IN ROCKWELL COUNTY TO NOT ONLY VOTE FOR ROWE LET BUT THE ROCKWELL I.S.D. AND ANYTHING THAT ROCKWELL COUNTY MIGHT HAVE. SO I ASK THAT COUNCIL APPROVE A CONTRACT WITH ROCKWELL COUNTY

ELECTIONS SUBJECT TO THE CITY ATTORNEY REVIEW. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH, LAURA.

>> THAT SOUNDS COMPLICATED BUT JUST TO SUMMARIZE MAKE SURE I HAVE IT CORRECT LAURA IS THAT WE DON'T HAVE A CHOICE IN THIS MATTER IN REGARDS TO EARLY VOTING FOR ROWE LET THIS IS ALL ABOUT ROWLETT RESIDENTS FIRST OF ALL. WE DON'T HAVE A CHOICE ANYMORE ABOUT ALLOWING THOSE THAT RESIDE NO IN ROCKWELL COUNTY TO VOTE EARLY AT OUR EARLY VOTING SITE BECAUSE IT'S ONE DALLAS COUNTY. DALLAS COUNTY WILL NO LONGER ADMINISTER THAT.

SO WE DON'T HAVE THAT CHOICE. SO FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND EARLY VOTING FOR ROCKWELL COUNTY RESIDENT WILL RESIDE AT THE LIBRARY REGARDLESS IS THAT A FACT.

>> YES, THAT'S CORRECT. >> AND WHAT WE'RE CURRENTLY STILL WORKING ON IS IF WE CAN GET APPROVAL TO HAVE ELECTION DAY VOTING AT CULL LICENSED LAKEPOINT.

>> CORRECT. >> BUT WE HAVE A FEW MORE ITEMS THAT WE HAVE TO RESOLVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT BEFORE WE KNOW WHETHER THAT'S GOING TO BE AN OPTION OR NOT.

BECAUSE WE HAVE TO HAVE A COMPLETE BALLOT IF WE'RE GOING TO VOTE AT THAT LOCATION.

>> RIGHT. BECAUSE THEN CONVENIENCE IS A MUTE POINT.

>> SO IT'S A WORK IN PROGRESS. >> YES. >> BUT REGARDLESS WE NEED TO ENTER INTO A CONTRACT WITH ROCK WALL COUNTY TO ADMINISTER THE ELECTION AT THE ROCKWELL COUNTY

LIBRARY AT A MINIMUM? >> YES. >> IS THAT GOOD?

COUNCILMAN. >> THANK YOU MAYOR. YES I ASK FOR CITY ATTORNEY WHAT IT WOULD MEAN IF WE DAYS APPROVED IF WE VOTED NO ON THIS RESOLUTION.

I WOULD LOOK HIM TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION FOR THE PUBLIC. >> IT WOULD BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT. WE DON'T HAVE THE EQUIPMENT TO CONDUCT VOTING.

THE EQUIPMENT THAT IS REQUIRED HAS TO BE HANDICAPPED ACCESSIBLE OR DISABLED ACCESSIBLE.

IT HAS TO MEET A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT CRITERIA. WE WOULDN'T KNOW WHERE TO GET THE EQUIPMENT TO DO IT. SO TO SOME EXTENT WE ARE KIND OF STUCK WITH WHAT ROCKWELL COUNTY

IS MAKING US DO. >> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS COUNCIL? AND SO AS MORE INFORMATION BECOMES AVAILABLE WE'LL MAKE SURE WE SHARE THAT WITH THE PUBLIC.

>> ABSOLUTELY. >> BUT IN THE MEANTIME DO I HAVE A MOTION?

>> COUNCILWOMAN BROWN? >> YES I MAKE A MOTION THAT WE APPROVE THE ITEM.

>> COUNCILMAN. >> I'LL 2ND THE MOTION. >> ANY DISCUSSION?

>> CALL A VOTE. >> AND THAT ITEM PASSES 7-0. THANK YOU LAURA.

[8A. Call a public hearing and consider action to create the Trails at Cottonwood Creek Public Improvement District (PID) on behalf of Freedom Quest, LLC for the 765-unit residential development known as Trails at Cottonwood Creek. The 226.58-acre site is generally located at the northeast corner of Vinson Road and Stonewall Road, in the City of Rowlett, Dallas County, Texas.]

[00:35:07]

>> THE NEXT ITEM ON OUR AGENDA IS ITEM 8-A CALL A PUBLIC HEARING AND CONSIDER ACTION TO CREATE THE TRAILS OF COTTON WOOD PUBLIC DISTRICT FOR THE 70065 UNIT RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT KNOWN AS TRAILS AT COTTON WOOD CREEK. THE 20026.5 AIC CONSIDER SITE IS LOCATED AT THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF HAVE ANYBODIES SEPTEMBER AND STONE WELL IN ROE LET DALLAS

COUNTY. GOOD EVENING. >> GOOD EVENING.

THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO PRESENT THIS ITEM TONIGHT. BY WAY OF BACKGROUND THE SUBJECT PROPERTY IS REFLECTED TO THE RIGHT OF THE SCREEN WHICH IDENTIFIES A CONCEPTUAL SITE PLAN FOR A FORMED BASE CODE DEVELOPMENT PRIMARILY FOR SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL USES WITH CATEGORY OF LOT TYPES. THE ITEM IN FRONT OF YOU TONIGHT IS TO CONSIDER ACTION TO CREATE A PAID FOR THE TRAILS AT COTTON WOOD CREEK A PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT.

AT THE JANUARY MEETING THE COUNCIL DID ACCEPT A PUBLIC HEARING ON THE TRAILS AT THE COTTON WOOD PAID. THIS ITEM IS BEFORE YOU TONIGHT. -- PID.

THE COUNCIL AGREED TO ONE MILLION A LITTLE OVER $1 MILLION IN THE FORM OF WASTE WATER IMPACT FEE CREDIT FOR THE EXTENSION UP SIZE AND UPGRADE OF THE CITIES WASTE WATER INFRASTRUCTURE. AGAIN THIS IS OFF-SITE IMPROVEMENT.

AND ON THERE'S A MISSING DATE THERE I APOLOGIZE. THE COUNCIL DID APPROVE IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN IN NOVEMBER APPROVED A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT TO MODIFY THE PID AS IT RELATES TO LOT LAY OUTS AND SETBACKS. THE SITE IS ENCUMBERED BY 23 ACRES OF FLUID PLANE THAT YOU CAN SEE ON THE SCREEN IN GREEN. THE FRONTAGE IS ALONG STONE WALL ROAD AND VINCENT ROAD.

CITY SAN TYREE SERVICES WOULD HAVE TO BE EXTENDED -- CITY SANITARY SERVICES.

AS WE ALL KNOW THE PID IN ESSENCE IS AN ECONOMIC ENGINE THAT HAS THE ABILITY TO PLACE A TAX LOOK ASSESSMENT ON PROP TIP THAT CAN ISSUE TAX EXEMPT FUNDS TO REIMBURSE COSTS.

THEY'RE WITHIN THAT SPECIFIC DEVELOPMENT AND IT IS THIS SPECIAL ASSESSMENT THAT ENABLES THE DESIGN THE INSTALLATION AND OF COURSE FUTURE MAINTENANCE. PID ASSESSMENTS ARE JUSTIFIED BY THE BENCH FIT THEY PROVIDE TO THE FUTURE RESIDENTS OR LANDOWNERS OF THAT PROPERTY.

THE JUSTIFICATION FOR THE HIGHER TAXES THAT ARE LEVEED TO THESE FUTURE RESIDENTS IS OFFSET BY WHAT WOULD LIKELY BE A HIGHER QUALITY OR SPECIAL END MANS MINUTES OF THE DEVELOPMENT.

BASICALLY WHAT GOES ABOVE AND BEYOND THE DEVELOPMENT REQUIREMENT STIPULATED IN THE DONING DOCUMENTS OR DEVELOPMENT CODE. I KNOW THIS LOOKS LIKE A VERY BUSY SLIDE BUT REALLY IT ILL HUSBAND STATES WHAT THE APPLICANT HAS INDICATED THAT THEY ARE PROPOSING TO DO AS IT RELATES TO THIS PID. PRIMARILY IN ORDER TO FACILITATE AFFORDABLE HOME THEY'RE ASKING THE CITY TO FUND $11 MILLION OF PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS USING THIS PID MECHANISM THAT WOULD BE LEAVE VERYING A SPECIAL ASSESSMENT AND ISSUANCE OF BONDS. THE BOND ISSUANCE WOULD BY 8.8 MILLION OF WHICH ONE .9 WOULD BE DEDICATED FOR BOND RESERVES FINANCING COSTS AND CONSTRUCTION AND ONSITE IMPROVEMENTS.

TYPICAL STANDARD FRAMEWORK FOR A PID. UPON ASKING THE APPLICANT WHAT ELSE IS IT THAT YOU WOULD PROVIDE IN THIS SUBDIVISION OR PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT? BASICALLY THE PID WOULD INCLUDE BUT NOT NECESSARILY BE LIMITED TO THESE ITEMS THAT YOU SEE SUCH AS ACTION SAYS SHIN CONSTRUCTION, LANDSCAPING, ELECTION OF LIGHTING AND SIGNS, FOUNT ATTAINS, ACQUIRING CONSTRUCTING AND IMPROVING NARROWING OF SIDEWALKS AND STREET. YOU CAN SEE ALSO ONE STATEMENT OF CONSTRUCTION FOR PEDESTRIAN MALL. THEY ARE ALL RELATING TO THE INTERNAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE SUB SIEVE DIVISION. THIS SLIDE TRIES TO SUMMARIZE THOSE 2 PREVIOUS SLIDES WAS DISCUSS THE AMOUNT OF PID IN THE FORM OF $11 MILLION AND A SNAPSHOT REALLY OF WHAT THEY

[00:40:01]

SHOULD THE COUNCIL SO CHOOSE WOULD BE ADOPT DETERMINATION RELATED TO THE PID.

PROPOSED ASSESSMENT WOULD BE FILED WITH THE SECRETARY. THE COUNCIL WOULD HOLD HEARINGS ON SPECIAL ASSESSMENT. THE CITY COUNCIL WOULD AUTHORIZE THE ISSUE AND THE PID BONDS.

THOSE ARE THE TEXAS LOCAL GOVERNMENT REQUIREMENTS. AS I MENTIONED AND ARTICULATED IN THE STAFF REPORT YOU HAVE WITH YOU THE INTENT OF A PID IS TO UNDERSTAND FULLY UNDERSTAND WHAT IT IS THESE SPECIAL END MANS MINUTES OR ASSESSMENTS ARE RELATED TO THE DEVELOPMENT AND DO THEY GO ABOVE AND BEYOND WHAT THE DEVELOPMENT REQUIREMENT ARE THAT THE CITY HAS ON THE BOOKS? THE APPLICANT WAS REQUESTED. I DID SPEAK TO THE APPLICANT TO ASK THEM FOR A DRAFT FORMAT OF A SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN OR PROVIDE A LITTLE MORE DETAIL AN AS TO WHAT IT IS THEY ARE PROPOSING TO DO. I'D LIKE TO CALL IT SPECIAL ENHANCEMENTS TO THE SITE.

THEY FELT IT WAS TOO PREMATURE TO PROVIDE THAT. SO AGAIN TO REITERATE THE PURPOSE WOULD BE TO FORMALIZE A PID TO GET ON-SITE ARCHITECTURE. THEY'VE ALREADY SECURED A FACILITIES AGREEMENT IN THE AMOUNT NOT TO EX SITE EXCEED $1 MILLION FOR THE DESIGN OF OFF SIDE WASTE WATER IMPROVEMENTS. THE LOOK OF SPECIFICITY AS THE IT RELATES TO ENHANCEMENT UNIQUE FEATURES OR PREMIUM USE SERVICES THAT COULD BE ADDED BY THE DEVELOPER TO FUTURE RESIDENTS LIKE I SAID THAT ARE FAR MORE UNIQUE AND GOING BEYOND THE DEVELOPMENT PROCEDURES DOES NOT SUPPORT THIS. THE APPLICANT IS HERE. THEY DO HAVE A PRESENTATION AND SO WE ALSO HAVE OUR FINANCIAL ADVICE SORRIES AVAILABLE. I'LL TRY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS

THAT YOU MAY HAVE. >> THANK YOU. SO WE'RE GOING TO TAKE QUESTIONS FOR HER FIRST. I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR FROM OUR FINANCIAL ADVISERS AND THE APPLICANT BUT COUNCILMAN MARGOLIN HAS -- DO YOU HAVE A QUESTION?

>> YES. IT STATES THAT A BENEFIT OF A PID CAN BE INFRASTRUCTURE POLICE FIRE PASSIVE AND ACTIVITY OPEN SPACES ITS. WHAT SPECIFICALLY WOULD A PID

COVER WHEN IT COMES TO POLICE AND FIRE SERVICES. >> AT THIS POINT IT COULD BE IN THE FORM OF PERHAPS A PHYSICAL STRUCTURE FOR EXAMPLE BUT AGAIN THOSE ARE OPTIONS RELATED TO PROVIDE. THE AND PID CAN'T COVER STAFFING COST.

>> I DON'T BELIEVE SO. >> THANK YOU. >> COUNCIL ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?

COUNCILMAN? >> AND THIS MAY BE A QUESTION FOR OUR FINANCIAL ADVISERS BUT

WHAT'S THE RISK TO THE CITY WHEN FORMING A PID? >> WOULD DEFER TO THEM.

>> DO WE HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS; IS THAT OK. >> YEAH.

>> GOOD EVENING, MAYOR, COUNCIL, MY NAME IS JIM. I WORK WITH HILL TOP SECURITIES.

MY PARTNER BOYD LONDON. WE'VE REVIEWED THE FINANCIAL INFORMATION SUBMITTED BY THE DEVELOPER. WE'VE HAD NUMEROUS CONFERENCE CALLS AND REVIEWED THE PROCESS IN PERSON. THIS IS A TYPICAL RESIDENTIAL PID STRUCTURE.

IT'S SIMILAR TO WHAT WE SEE COMMONLY BEING DONE CURRENTLY IN THE STATE OF TEXAS.

FROM A FINANCIAL RISK THESE TRANSACTIONS HAVE EVOLVED OVERTIME WHERE THERE'S A STRUCTURE PUT IN PLACE THAT WOULD ISOLATED THE CITY FROM ANY FINANCIAL IMPACT OR RISK WHATSOEVER. IT'S NOT GOING TO IMPACT THE CITY CREDIT QUALITY OR ACCESS TO CAPITAL. WE HAVE RESPONSIBILITIES FOR LEVEE ASSESSMENT COALITIONS OF ASSESSMENTS AND JUST LOOK IN THE TAX TAX. IF THERE'S NONPAYMENT WE FORECLOSE JUST LOOK WE DO IN TEXAS. I SUMMARIZE THAT ON THIS SLIDE 4

[00:45:03]

FOR ASSESSMENTS. FOR COLLECTING AND DIGGS STRIB BOOTING TRUST ACCOUNTS AND FOLLOWING OUR STANDARD CITY FORECLOSURE PERCENT SPBLTH GIVES.

>> BUT THIS IS A VERY -- NO IMPACT TO ANY CITIZEN OR LANDOWNERS ANY OUTSIDE THE PID

BOUNDARIES. >> THAT FORECLOSURE PROCESS WOULD THEN REVERT TO THE BOND HOLDER AS FAR AS THE -- CITY WOULD BE A CONDUIT FOR THE FORECLOSURE PROCESS?

>> THE CITY WOULD TIP LALLI FOLLOW THE PROCEDURES FOR NONE TAX PAYMENTS.

WE WOULD EXPECT THE SAME POLICIES AND PROCEDURES IN PLACE.

IT DOESN'T COME BEFORE THE COUNCIL. IF THERE'S A FORECLOSURE.

JUST AS AN THAT THERE'S NO CELEBRATION TO THE DEBT OWED. IT BRINGS THE PAYMENTS CURE LENT THAT YEAR. SO THESE TYPE OF RESIDENTIAL PROJECTS HERE IN TEXAS WE SEE VERY TYPICAL VERY MINOR FOR NONPAYMENT. VERY MINOR.

>> YEAH. WE HAVE A PID AT OUR SAPPHIRE BAY DEVELOPMENT.

SO WE HAVE A LITTLE EXPIRE YEN IN THIS. >> IT BEGS THE QUESTION WHY DO WE HAVE TO BE INVOLVE AT ALL? IT'S INTERESTING FROM AN ADMINISTRATIVE STANDPOINT.

IS THERE ANY EVER BEEN ANY DISCUSSION ABOUT YOU KNOW OFF BALANCE SHEET DISCLOSURE TO PID D RELATED TO ANY DEVELOPMENT. GO AHEAD, BRIAN. PUSH YOUR BUTTON.

>> MAYOR, IN OUR ANNUAL AUDIT WE DO CHOICE CLOSE 3 PITS ARE THERE.

THERE IS NOTHING TO ENCUMBER OUR BOND RATING. BUT WE ARE REQUIRED TO MAKE CERTAIN DISCLOSURES EVERY YEAR AND REQUIRED TO FOLLOW CERTAIN RULES ABOUT THAT.

>> AND THEN WE HAVE TO ADMINISTER. SO WE HAVE STAFFING REQUIREMENTS

BUT WE ALSO GET ILL BURSTD. >> THAT'S CORRECT. WE HAVE ALL THE DIFFERENT

RECEIPTS AND IN VOGUESES. >> YOU'RE TEAM DOES THE ACCOUNTING FOR AND THAT'S WHAT OUR TEAM DOES. IT DOES TAKE TIME AND EFFORT AND WE DO GET REIMBURSED.

I'LL LET MATT GO FIRST. >> HOW OFTEN ARE YOU SEEING DEVELOPMENT START USING PID

APPS. >> IT'S A VERY COMMON OCCURRENCE.

VOID AND I HAVE BEEN OVER 100 SUCCESSFUL CONTRACTS. IT SEEMS IT'S THE DOMINATING PROJECT. IT'S A POWERFUL TOOL DEVELOPED BY MEN AND WOMEN.

>> I THINK MORE COMMONLY WE SEE THEM IN A SMALLER COMMUNITIES. THERE'S 3 A REASON WHY PID APPS WOULD BE USED. ONE IS FACILITATE HIGHER QUALITY DEVELOPMENT.

OTHERS WOULD BE ANOTHER ONE WOULD BE FOR CAN COMMUNITY TO PARTICIPATE WITH A DEVELOPER SMALL COMMUNITY WITH A VERY LARGE DEVELOPMENT THAT DOESN'T HAVE THE CAPACITY TO FUND THE INFRASTRUCTURE OR WOULD BE ABLE TO TAKE THE RISK FOR THAT CAPITAL FUBLDING TO ALLOW THE FUND GIRDER TO USE IT. 3RD IS LARGE URBAN AREAS WHERE COMMUNITIES WANT TO HAVE A UNIQUE STRATEGIC GOAL. SO YOU SEE IT ACROSS ALL TYPES OF CITIES.

I THINK THERE'S A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CITIES THAT ARE GROWING THE FASTEST.

>> WOULD YOU SAY IT'S A TOOL THAT CITIES HAVE BEEN ABLE TO USE IN PARTNERING TO INCREASE DEVELOPMENT TO THEIR CITY WITHOUT HAVING TO TAKE THE RISK OF FUNDING THEM THEIR SELVES?

>> THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT THEY DO. >> I HAVE ANOTHER QUESTION. CAN YOU TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT YOU KNOW WHAT KIND OF BOND HOLDERS ARE TYPICAL IN THESE SITUATIONS?

[00:50:03]

ISSUANCE DO THESE TYPICALLY HAVE IN TERMS OF NONE PID BONDS -- >> CAN YOU TALK ABOUT THAT?

>> MAYOR THESE ARE GREAT BOND ISSUES. AS AN ISSUER YOU SET THE CRITERIA. TYPICALLY THE CRITERIA WOULD WREAK NICE THE UNIQUE NIECE OF THESE BONDS.

TRADITIONALLY THEY'RE LIMITED TO SOME OF THE MAJOR NAMES THAT YOU WOULD HEAR.

OCCASIONALLY HIGH NET WORTH INDIVIDUALS SO THESE ARE NOT OLD SO THE BOND HOLD SISTERS THAT WOULD BE ABLE TO BUY YOUR ACCREDITED OCCASION AND FOCUS ON THESE BONDS.

BUT THEY EINDICATE THAT VERY TO SEEKS EXPERIENCE. THESE ARE HIGH YIELD BONDS AND VERY SMALL GROUP THAT DO MOST OF THE FUNDING FOR THIS AREA. THE COSTS ARE HIGHER AND THE REASON THE COSTS ARE HIGHER THERE'S A LOT MORE INFORMATION INVOLVED.

THERE'S DISCLOSURES AN IMPORTANT ASPECT OF THIS BOND ISSUANCE. SO THERE'S FEASIBILITY STUDIES.

THERE'S LOTS OF THINGS INVOLVED IN THE LAND SECURE FINANCE SINCE THAT ARE NOT INVOLVED WITH A CITY THAT HOVENT HAVE HIGHER VEG SEES. THEY BE COME STANDARD DIED ON

THESE TYPE OF TRANSACTIONS. >> AS I BELIEVE CITY MANAGERS INDICATING THE PROCESS THAT HAVE BEEN PUT IN PLACE INVOLVE THE CITY HIRING OUT MANAGERS TO DO ALL KINDS OF REPORTING ADMINISTRATION SHIN. THOSE FEES BE IN BUDGETSD AND INCLUDED IN AN ANNUAL ADMINISTRATIVE ASSESSMENT THAT'S PUT IN PLACE SO THERE'S NO COST INITIALLY OR AN ONGOING COST TO

THE CITIZENS OF THE COMMUNITY. >> SO ARE YOU SEEING MANY INSTANCES WHERE THESE ARE PUT IN PLACE AS FINANCING TOOLS TO FIND BASIC INFRASTRUCTURE AND THEN YOU KNOW THE ASSESSMENTS NEVER COME TO FRUITION BECAUSE THE DEVELOPMENT DOESN'T MAKE IT TO THE END AND WE HAVE BOND

FORECLOSURE SITUATIONS. >> ACTUALLY WE HAVEN'T SEEN -- I'VE NOT BEEN INVOLVED IN ANY BOND FORECLOSURES IN NORTH TEXAS. AND AGAIN THE WAY THESE ARE STRUCTURED THE VALUE OF THE PROPERTY IS A MULTIPLE OF THE BONDS OUTSTANDING.

OUR TEXAS PROPERTY IS NOT AS VEER BL IN VALUE SO WE HAVE APHRASE SALES.

THOSE ARE BY INDEPENDENT THIRD-PARTIES AND THEY'RE SOLD BASED ON THE VALUE OF LAND AS IT IS END MEANSD BY THE IMPROVEMENTS -- IT IS ENHANCED. WHEN THE MONEY IS SET IN TRUST IT'S ONLY RELEASED WHEN THERE'S PHYSICAL ILL MOVE MINUTES IN PLACE.

SO THE PROCESS IS REALLY SECURE. WE HAVEN'T SEEN A FAILURE OF A PROJECT WHERE BONDS ARE ISSUED AND THE PROJECT WASN'T ENHANCED OR PUT IN PLACE AND AGAIN A WELL CONSTRUCTED PROJECT CAN ABSORB SLOW DOWNS IN THE ECONOMY AND NATURE OF THESE RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES WE WOULD EXPECT TO BE CREDIT WORTHY AND ANY PREDUCK BL SLOW DOWN OF THE ECONOMY. WE WERE INVOLVED WITH THESE.

AND CLASS WITH. MARKET THEY WEATHER THAT STORM FORMED AND CONTINUED TO DEVELOP

AS THEY WENT FORWARD. >> YOU WITHDREW YOUR QUESTION? OK.

COUNCIL? ANY OTHER QUESTIONS BEFORE WE TAKE A PRESENTATION BY THE APPLICANT? THANK YOU SO MUCH. SO BEFORE I OPEN THE PUBLIC

HEARING DOES THE APPLICANT WANT TO GIVE A PRESENTATION. >> MAYOR DO YOU WANT TO OPEN UP

YOUR HEARING AND I GIVE THE PRESENTATION? >> NO.

GO AHEAD AND GIVE YOUR PRESENTATION AND THEN I'LL OPEN UP THE HEARING.

[00:55:05]

>> OK. THANK YOU. SAME CLICKER? THANK YOU. ONE OF THESE? OK.

THANK YOU. NO THIS WILL WORK. MAYOR COUNCIL GOOD EVENING.

THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING US TO COME BACK THIS EVENING. PRESTON WALL HOOD.

WE'RE GLAD TO BE BACK AND DISCUSS WITH YOU MORE. MR. SAB BONE NAUSEA -- I'M GOING TO TRUNK KATE MY PIECES AND TELL YOU LATE MORE ABOUT US. FIRST OF ALL WARNER LANDED A VICE SORES WE ARE A PRIVATE DEVELOPER. WE'RE NOT A LARGE BIG MAIN FUN LIB DEVELOPER BUT WE HAVE A LOT OF EXPERIENCE DOING THIS. WE'RE REAL ESTATE FIRM THAT SOLELY SPECIALIZE IN ACQUISITION ZONING AND INFRASTRUCTURE FOR DEVELOP MEANT OF THIS SIZE AND QUALITY THAT WE'VE PRO -- WE WERE NAMED AS ONE OF THE LARGEST DEVELOPERS.

STEVE IS THE PRESIDENT OF WARNER LAND HAS DEVELOPED IN 4 STATES AND 13 MUNICIPALITIES AROUND NORTH TEXAS WITH 10,000 ACRES BEING DEVELOPED. SO JUST TO GIVE YOU A FLAVOR OF WHO WE ARE AND WHAT WE DO. HERE'S A COUPLE OF PROJECTS THAT WE HAVE UNDER CONSTRUCTION.

THIS IS A PROJECT IN COLIN COUNTY. IT'S LARGER THAN THE TRAILS AT COTTON WOOD CREEK. IT'S 450 ACRES. PUMP MALL PHASES DEVELOPED IN THE PARKER. HERE'S ANOTHER PROJECT 440 ACKORS IN COLLEGE COUNTY AS WELL. MAUM PAL GREEN SPACE. RETENTION PONTSDZ AND GREEN DEVELOPMENT AND RETAIL. HERE'S A PROJECT IN THE HILL COUNTRY.

THIS IS SIMILAR SIZE DEVELOPMENT AS THE TRAILS OF COULD THEY TON WOOD CREEK.

IT WAS A MULTI USE DEVELOPMENT. THIS HAS SINGLE-FAMILY MULTI-FAMILY AND TOWN HOME TRACT IN ADDITION TO RETAIL CORNERS. COMMERCIAL RETAIL CORNERS. AND THEN HERE IS ANOTHER DEVELOPMENT THAT IS CURRENTLY IN DENTON COUNTY. THIS IS A DEVELOPMENT OF IT'S A SMALLER LOSE. IT'S 50 GIVE I THINK FOOT. AND THEN A COMMUNITY WITH A FLAVOR AND WHO WE ARE AND WHAT WE DO. PUBLIC DISTRICT ARE COMMON TOOL TO FUND INFRASTRUCTURE AND RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENTS OF 100 PID APPS THAT HAVE BEEN ESTABLISHED SINCE 201192% OF THEM HAVE BEEN FOR RESIDENTIAL USE -- PRIMARILY RESIDENTIAL USE. OUR CONSULTANT D.P. IF G RICK ROSENBERG IS HERE TONIGHT. HE'S THE ONE WHO CRUNCHES THE NUMBERS AND TELLS US WHAT THE PID CAN BURDEN AND WHAT SACKS SEPTEMBER BL FOR A -- SUCCESSFUL.

HE TELLS US IF OUR NUMBERS WORK. IF WE AGREE FOR THIS TO MOVE FORWARD.

THESE ARE A COUPLE CITIES THAT HAVE COMPLETED PID FINANCE SINCE ACROSS NORTH TEXAS.

WE'VE WORKED IN SEVERAL CITIES. AND THEN HERE'S ANOTHER SET OF CITIES THAT ARE PLANNING PID FIND NANCING ACROSS THE STATE. THIS GIFTS YOU A SQUARE SHOT WHERE THE 120 PID APPS ARE BEING FORMED ACROSS THE STATE OF TEXAS. FOR THE TRAILS IN COTTON WOOD CREEK WE HAVE BEEN ON A LONG ROAD AND THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING.

THIS IS A 7 YEAR PROJECT AND WE'RE THE FIRST YEAR IN. WE HAVEN'T TURNED A SHOVEL.

OVER THE LAST YEAR WE HAVE WORKED THROUGH ZONING. WE HAVE WORKED ON A FACILITIES AGREEMENT THAT WAS DISCUSSED AGAIN TONIGHT. NOW WE'RE ON OUR 3RD PHASE WHICH IS FINANCING AND DEVELOPMENT A SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT FOR THE LONG-TERM PLAN.

SO SOME QUICK ENHANCEMENTS HERE OF A MASTER PLAN COMMUNITY IN GENERAL.

SOMETHING THAT'S DIFFERENT ABOUT THE TRAILS AT COT DONE WOOD CREEK THIS WILL DEVELOP 20% OF OPEN SPACE ENHANCEMENT AND MAINTENANCE OF THE OPEN SPACE. IT WILL NOT BE THE CITY TO TAKE THAT THAT ON AND MAINTAIN THAT AREA. A MASTER PLANNED COMMUNITY LIKE THIS YOU CAN HAVE A TRAIL SYSTEM POCKET PARKS LARGE LANDSCAPING THAT BENEFITS THE PUBLIC AND THEN ALSO ADDRESS TRAFFIC CONTROL ISSUES BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY WHEN YOU HAVE A MASTER PLAN ON 250 ACRES IT'S SIMILAR TO OTHER PROJECTS. YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO WORK

WITH A SINGLE OWNER TO DEVELOP A >> LACK TRACT OF LAND. AND IN DOING SO MUCH WITH THE

[01:00:06]

IT'S A VERY SECURE FUNDING MECHANISM THAT HAS NOT DEFAULTED.

THE P.D. ORDINANCES ALREADY ANTICIPATED A PID SO IT'S US GOING BACK TO THAT TO BRING THAT TO FRUITION. TO COUNCILMAN APPS POINT EARLY WE AGREE AN E.M.S. AND FIRE STATION ANYONE IS NECESSARY IN THIS AREA OF TOWN. WE HAVE INITIATED THE DISCUSSION WITH THE FIRE DEPARTMENT AND TO ASK WOULD THEY BE INTERESTED IN THIS AREA OF TOWN AND WOULD THEY BE INTERESTED IN PROVIDING SERVICE BECAUSE RIGHT NOW THE SERVICE TIME IS RATHER EXTENDED.

AND SO AS PART OF BRINGING THIS ONLINE I WANT TO WALK YOU THROUGH A COUPLE OF THINGS THAT WE HAVE LOOKED AT. WE'VE TALKED WITH THE FIRE EMERGENCY SERVICES AND HAVE IDENTIFIED 2 DIFFERENT LOCATIONS WHERE A FIRE STATION AND E.M.S. STATION SITE COULD BE DEDICATED AS PART OF THE PID. AND SO THIS WOULD BE DEDICATED IN THE THE FIRST PHASE OF DEVELOPMENT. WE WOULD ASK THE E.M.S. AND FIRE DEPARTMENT TO GET INVOLVED AT THE CITY COUNCIL AND IDENTIFY THEIR FINAL LOCATION HAND THIS WOULD BE THE FIRST PHASE.

HERE WHEN I TALK ABOUT THE FINANCES WE'VE INCLUDED IN OUR PID OFFERING A HALF MILLION DOLLARS TOWARD DESIGN ENGINEERING AND SET UP FOR THIS FACILITY SO THIS CAN BE OPERATIONAL FROM THE FIRST DAY THAT THERE'S CONSTRUCTION ON THE SITE.

ADDITIONALLY WITH THE TRAILS OF COTTON WOOD CREEK FROM A MASTER PLAN PERSPECTIVE WE'RE LOOKING AT A GREEN TRAIL SYSTEM A GREEN TRAIL SYSTEM IN LEU OF CREATING ILL PERM MEAL CONCRETE TRAILS WOULD DELIVER 4 MILES OF GREEN TRAILS. GREEN TRAILS ARE TYPICALLY CONSTRUCTED OF A CONCRETE BARRIER WITH A DECOMPOSED AGGREGATE WITH A POLYMER THAT CREATES A PERMEABLE SERVICE SO INSTEAD OF HAVING A CONCRETE TRAIL OR CONCRETE PATH THAT RUNS THROUGH NATURAL GREEN SPACE YOU CAN ENHANCE THE TRUE NATURAL ELEMENTS OF THE COMMUNITY AND PROVIDE A WALKING PATH THAT'S ACTION SETES BL AND MAINTAINING EXISTING TREES AND -- CONNECTIVITY. ANOTHER PART OF THIS TRAIL SYSTEM THAT WOULD BE DELIVERED WITH THE TRAILS OF COTTON WOOD CREEK IS AN INTERACTIVE ENGAGEMENT OPPORTUNITY.

SO THIS WOULD BECOME PART OF SOMETHING THAT WOULD BE MAINTAINED BY THE PID BUT WOULD BE OPEN TO ALL PEOPLE IN THE PUBLIC. IT WOULD BE PASSIVE OPPORTUNITIES TO ENGAGE ON THE TRAIL SYSTEM. GO FOR A NATURE SYSTEM OR HAVE NATURE TRIPS IN TOWN WHERE YOU DO NOT HAVE TO LEAVE ROWLETT TO GO EXPERIENCE NATURE IN ITS ORIGINAL FORM. IN ADDITION TO THIS TRAIL SYSTEM THE TRAILS OF COTTON WOOD CREEK AND PID WOULD ENHANCE PEDESTRIAN CORRIDORS. SO INSTEAD OF BUILDING LOTS ALL THE WAY UP TO THE SIDEWALKS AND STREET SHAPE WITH A PID WE'RE ABLE TO DELIVER AN ENHANCED PEDESTRIAN CORRIDOR AND CREATE ADDITIONAL CONNECTIVITY. WHAT THIS DOES IS CREATE LANDSCAPE BUFFER IN BETWEEN HOUSES AND THE ROADWAY OR SIDEWALK WHERE TYPICALLY THERE WOULD BE ANOTHER HOME. WE'RE ABLE TO BACK THAT OFF AND FORGIVE THAT SPACE BECAUSE OF THE OPPORTUNITY THROUGH THAT FINANCING MECHANISM. AND THIS DELIVERS AN OPPORTUNITY SORRY AN ELEMENT FOR PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITY AND PEOPLE ACROSS THE PUBLIC TO ACCESS THOSE TRAIL SYSTEMS FROM THEIR HOME WITHOUT HAVING TO BE ON TOP OF SOMEBODY ELSE'S PRIVACY FENCE.

HERE'S A COUPLE EXAMPLES OF WHERE THAT HAS BEEN DONE. AN ADDITIONAL ELEMENT THAT WOULD BE DELIVERED IN THIS PID AND ENHANCEMENT ARE POCKET PARKS. THE TRAILS AT COTTON WOOD CREEK IN ADDITION OF 40 ACRES OF OPEN SPACE THIS WOULD ANTICIPATE 18 POCKET PARKS.

YOU SEE DIFFERENT PARKS ON THIS MAP. SOME THAT ARE ADJACENT TO OTHER GREEN SPACE OR OPEN SPACE AND THESE POCKET PARKS WOULD BE AMEN TIESD SO THESE WOULD DELIVER A VARIETY OF OPTIONS FOR ALL AGE GROUPS FOR THE PUBLIC AND RESIDENTS.

YOU WOULD HAVE PLAYGROUNDS AND TO THE LOTS PRACTICE FIELDS. ADDITIONAL YARD SPACE.

SPACE FOR NEIGHBORS TO COME INTO THE COMMUNITY AND ENGAGE. A GATHERING SPACE FOR PUBLIC EVENTS FOR YOUR TEAM NIGHT OUT. DOG BACK PARKS. SCOOTER PARKS ARE A NEW THING TO

[01:05:03]

WHY NOT BUILD A PARK AND AN OPEN SPACE WHERE THEY CAN RIDE IN A LINE AND BE RIGHT NEXT TO MOM AND DAD ON A TO THE LOT OR ANOTHER PARK? WE'RE PROPOSING THAT ONE OFF THOSE OPEN SPACE LOTS BE TURNED INTO A PUBLIC SPLASH PAD. IF THE CITY DECIDED WE DON'T WANT TO SEE ANOTHER SPLASH PAD WE CAN INCORPORATE THAT INTO A PRIVATE AMENITY.

BUT THIS WOULD BE OPEN THE ALL RESIDENTS IF IT'S INCLUDE INNED THE PID.

IF YOU LIVE ON THE FLOOR THEY WERE EDGE OR FAR AWAY FROM THE WET ZONE AND YOU WANT TO I GO SWING BY THE SPLSH PAD YOU CAN DO THAT BECAUSE IT'S OPEN AND AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC.

ADDITIONALLY WE WOULD ENHANCE THE PERIMETER LANDSCAPE AND SO AGAIN THIS TALKS ABOUT MAXIMIZING THOSE NATURAL TREE STANDS AND THIS IS A PUBLIC BUFFER.

SO WHEN YOU HAVE VINCENT ROAD OR STONE WELL ROAD RATHER THAN BUILD ALL THE WAY UP TO IT WE WOULD GO ABOVE AND BEYOND THE BASIC REQUIREMENT THAT'S IN THE PID AND ENHANCE THAT AREA WITH AN ENHANCED TRAIL SYSTEM THAT WOULD CONNECT INTO THESE OTHER EL MEN'S.

AND SO WHAT I WOULD -- ELEMENTS. >> WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO ILLUSTRATE ALL THESE THINGS ARE UNIQUE BUT WHEN YOU PUT THEM TOGETHER YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY IN A MUST SISTER PLAN COMMUNITY LIKE THIS TO CONNECT TRAIL SYSTEMS TO POCKET PARKS TO GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE WITH A FIRE STATION AND ENHANCED PEDESTRIAN WALK WAYS AND STILL CREATE ANYONE ARE WOULD HOOD THAT HAS ITS OWN AMENITIES AN OWN OPPORTUNITIES TO AMEN TIES PRIVATELY AND BECOMES A BIG PUBLIC AMENITY AND A DESTINATION FOR PEOPLE TO COME AND USE. THERE ARE PEOPLE THAT MAY ATTEND THE GIS D SCHOOL SITE THAT IS OWNED ON THE NORTHWEST CORNER THAT AREN'T RESIDENTS.

AND THEY HAVE ACCESS TO ALL OF THIS OPEN SPACE TO THESE TRAIL SYSTEMS TO THE POCKET PARKS.

WHAT A GREAT BRING AFTERNOON TO GO PICK UP YOUR KID FROM SCHOOL WALK DOWN THE TRAIL AND PLAY ON THE SPLASH PAD BEFORE YOU HEAD HOME. THAT WOULD BE DELIVERED AS PART OF THIS PID. ANOTHER THING WE TALKED ABOUT WAS IMPACT ON AFFORDABILITY AND THERE WAS A QUESTION HOW DOES THIS MAKE IT MORE AFFORDABLE. SO I WANT TO DRILL DOWN TO THAT.

THIS IS A COMPLICATED SLIDE BUT REALLY WHAT IT SAYS IS THAT THE PID PROVIDES A MECHANISM FOR THE HOMEOWNER TO LOWER THEIR FINANCING COSTS. SO INSTEAD OF PASSING ON CERTAIN COSTS OF IMPROVEMENTS IN THE DEVELOPMENT TO THE HOMEOWNER THROUGH THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE HOUSE THE PID PROVIDES A LONG-TERM FINANCING MECHANISM THAT REDUCES THE HOME FRIES AND REDUCES THE MORTGAGE PAYMENT AND INCREASES AFFORDABILITY. SO FOR YOUR AVERAGE 300,000 DOLLAR HOME. EVEN WITH A PID ASSESSMENT THE ANNUAL PID INSTALLMENT THEY'RE GOING TO THE I PAY LESS THAN IF THAT INFRASTRUCTURE IS PASSED ON THROUGH TYPICAL DEVELOPMENT.

ANOTHER THING THAT'S IMPORTANT TO CONSIDER IS THE ANNUAL PROCEEDS TO THE CITY RECEIVES FROM THE TAXES AND BUILD OUT. THESE ARE 3 BLOCKS. THE BLUE BLOCK ILLUSTRATES PHASE I. WHEN THE FIRST 200 LOTS COME ONLINE YOU'RE LOOKING AT $60 MILLION OF TAXABLE VALUATION. USING YOUR TAX RATE PER HUNDREDS THAT'S A HALF MILLION DOLLARS IN CITY PROCEEDS IN THE FIRST PHASE. MOVING TO THE NEXT FAZE 4 HUNDRED 30 LOTS ONLINE YOUR RECEIVING OVER A MILLION DOLLARS -- IN TAX REVENUE.

AND THEN AT FULL BUILD OUT IN 5 YEARS THE 5 TO 6 YEARS THE ANNUAL PROCEEDS TO THE CITY GENERATE ALMOST $2 MILLION IN TAX REVENUE. SO THE DEVELOPMENT NOT ONLY WILL DELIVER THINGS THROUGH THE PID THAT ARE MAINTAINED BY THE PID BUT THE CITY WILL RECEIVE A

GREAT DEAL OF TAX REVENUE FROM THIS DEVELOPMENT. >> THIS IS A HIGHLIGHT OF ELEMENTS THAT COULD BE INCLUDED IN THE PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT FINANCING.

THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE HAVE WORKED ON. WE MENTIONED THAT WE'RE TRYING TO IDENTIFY WHAT THESE ITEMS. ARE HERE IN A 2ND I'M GOING TO TALK THROUGH THE PROCESS.

OUR ATTORNEY DREW SLOW IS HERE TO TALK THROUGH IT AS WELL. THE SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN IS THE NEXT STEP A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT THAT DICTATES A SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN.

THAT'S WHEN THESE NUMBERS WOULD BE PENCILED OUT. WE WOULD WORK THROUGH EXACTLY WHAT'S GOING TO BE INCLUDED IN THE PID. THE GREEN HOOK AND BOOK TRAILS

[01:10:04]

WE'RE JUST DEDICATING THAT TO THE CITY. BUT A FIRE STATION OF CONTRIBUTION OF HALF A MILLION DOLLARS FOR DESIGN AND ENGINEERING IS INCLUDED IN THIS.

OUR CONCERN IS E.M.S. SUPPORT. BEFORE YOU CAN BUILD A FIRE STATION THE GOAL WOULD BE TO ACCOMMODATE AND RESPOND TO NON-FIRE EMESH JEFFERSONS SEES TO MEDICAL EMERGENCIES IN THIS AREA OF TOWN AS WELL. THESE ARE A NUMBER OF THINGS THAT COULD BE INCLUDED IN THE PID. WE TALKED ABOUT THE PID STRUCTURE.

IT'S 8.8 MILLION DOLLARS. 2 MILLION IS RESERVED FOR FINANCING.

6.8 MILLION DOLLARS GOES INTO DEVELOPMENTS AND ENHANCEMENTS. ALL HOSE FUNDS ARE HELD IN TRUST. AND THEY'RE ONLY PAID FOR WHEN THERE'S AN ACTUAL PIECE OF INFRASTRUCTURE OR ELEMENT THAT HAS BEEN DELIVERED. AT THAT TIME IT'S PAID FOR THROUGH PID FUNDS. IT'S NOT FUNDS HANDED TO US AS THE DEVELOPER THAT WE SPEND ON THIS. THAT IS IDENTIFIED ON THE AGREEMENT AND SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN. SO WHERE ARE WE IN THE PROCESS? WELL IN THE PID PROCESS THE CITY COUNCIL ACCEPTED A PETITION ON JANUARY 7TH. TONIGHT THE CITY COUNCIL WILL HOLD A PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER ADOPTION OF THE PID RESOLUTION.

THE PID RESOLUTION CREATES THE ENTITY. IT DRAWS A CIRCLE ON THE MAP AND SAYS THIS AREA WILL BE IN THIS PID. IT DOES NOT LEVEE ASSESSMENTS OR DOLLAR AMOUNTS. IT DRAWS A CIRCLE ON THE MAP AND SAYS THIS IS WHERE WE'RE GOING TO BE. THE NEXT STEP IS SIT DOWN WITH THE LEADERSHIP TEAM OUR ATTORNEY AND THE CITY ATTORNEY AND DRAFT AN AGREEMENT THAT IDENTIFIES THE REMAINING NEXT STEPS AND THE DOLLARS THAT WILL BE EX EXPENDED END PAID FOR THROUGH THE PID. -- AND HEN THE TARGET IS DO THAT WITHIN THE NEXT 45 DAYS AT WHICH POINT THE CITY WOULD AADOPT THAT ELEMENT AND THEN THE COST DETERMINATION WOULD HAPPEN DURING THE 2ND QUARTER. THE BOND ISSUANCE WOULD HAPPEN DURING THE 3RD QUARTER OF THIS YEAR. WE HAVE TO TELL YOU THERE'S A LOT OF EXCITEMENT FOR ROWLETT. ERR TIME WE'VE MET WITH BUILDERS.

SOME BASED IN DALLAS. SOME ARE BASED IN HOUSTON AND LOOKING TO GET A FOOT HOLD UP HERE. WE CONSTANTLY HEAR WE WOULD LOVE TO BE IN ROE LET.

WE WOULD LOVE TO BE IN A MASTER PLAN. THERE'S A LOT OF EXCITEMENT FOR ROWE LET. WE WOULD LOVE TO SEE THIS PARCEL -- COME BE A GREAT EDITION OF THE CITY OF ROWLETT. WE DO HAVE OUR ATTORNEY DREW SLOAN THAT IS HERE.

I WOULD BE HAPPY TO TAKE QUESTIONS OR IF DREW WOULD LIKE TOO HIGH LIGHT THE PID PROCESS, MAY I DON'T REMEMBER, UP TO YOUR DISCRETION HOW YOU WOULD LIKE TO PROCEED.

>> I DON'T HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE PID PROCESS. DOES ANYBODY ELSE? SO DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING BURNING YOU WANT TO SHARE? OR SMOLDERING?

I'M NOT TRYING TO DEFINE IT. >> MAYOR AND COUNSEL GOOD EVENING.

MY NAME IS DREW SLOAN SL O-N. HE. I -- RESIDE IN DALLAS.

THANK YOU ALL FOR HAVING US HERE. I DIDN'T DID WANT TO NOTE THAT WHAT I LEARNED FROM YOUR JANUARY 7TH COUNCIL MEET FIFTH EVERYONE IN FRONT OF YOU HAS SAID THE SAME THINGS YOU'RE GOING TO SAY YOU DON'T NEED TO DO IT ONE MORE TIME.

>> SO WERE YOU AT THAT? >> I CERTAINLY WAS FOR ALL 4 HOURS.

I WON'T BELABOR THE POINTS MADE. I JUST WANTED TO INTRODUCE MYSELF ONE AND LET YOU KNOW OF THE MANY PID APPS THAT HAVE BEEN DONE IN NORTH TEXAS I THINK I'VE BEEN INVOLVED IN HALF OF THEM REPRESENTING CITIES AS BOND COUNSEL TO UNDER WRITERS COUNCIL AND ALSO DEVELOPERS.

I HAVE SEEN THE GAMUT OF WHAT THESE PID APPS CAN DO. I DID WANT TO TOUCH ON A COUPLE OF THEM WHICH IS THAT WE'RE ASKING TO COME INTO A PARTNERSHIP WITH THE CITY.

ONE THING THAT IS FORGOT TURN HERE WE'RE CERTAINLY COMING TO YOU ASKING FOR THINGS BUT IT'S INCUMBENT UPON US TO WORK WITH YOU TO MAKE THIS THE DEVELOPMENT THAT YOU WANT.

[01:15:01]

SO WHICH WANT TO DRAW THIS CIRCLE TONIGHT. ONCE WE CALL THIS PUBLIC HEARING AND CLOSE IT AND GET TOGETHER AND CEMENT THAT PARTNERSHIP WITH WHATEVER TERMS YOU KNOW WE COME TO MUTUAL AGREEMENT ON. THAT'S PRETTY AT THE MUCH IT. ON THING I DID WANT TO ADDRESS IS YOUR POINT ABOUT NOT ONLY THE FIRE STATION BUT THE SERVICES THERE.

THAT IS SOMETHING THAT CAN BE DONE THROUGH A PID. IF YOU HAVE SEEN THE NEBRASKA FURNITURE MARKET ONE THING THEY'RE FUNDING SUPPLEMENTAL FIRE AND POLICE SERVICES BECAUSE OF ACTIVITY OUT THERE. THAT IS AN ON CONTINUE. THE SIRES SIS AS WELL AS THE

FACILITY. >> SERVICES? >> I MA END THE COST OF THEM TO STAFF A POLICE SUBSTATION WITHIN THE NEBRASKA FURNITURE MART AREA.

THERE'S A POLICE SUBSTATION THERE THAT IS FUNDED THROUGH SUPPLEMENTAL SERVICES DOLLARS.

THIS IS DONE IN THE UPTOWN PID. THOSE ARE SUPPLEMENTAL SIR JOYCEES INDIVIDUAL.

-- SUPPLEMENTAL SERVICES INDIVIDUAL. PUT IT AS PART OF THE P.I.D.

>> THE PID CAN COVER STAFF. >> YES. YES, THE COST CAN BE PASSED ONTO

THE PID OF THE STAFF. >> COST OF OPERATIONS. >> YES OF OPERATIONS.

>> I JUST THOUGHT PID WOULD NOT COVER STAFF. >> THAT'S NOT WHAT THEY'RE

APPROACH POSING. >> THAT IS SOMETHING THAT CAN BE DONE.

>> OK. >> TO ANSWER THE QUESTION. >> THANK YOU FOR CLARIFYING THAT

>> THAT'S PRETTY MUCH ALL I HAVE FOR YOU. I DONE WANT TO BELABOR POINTS

THAT IS HAVE BEEN MADE. >> ARE YOU DONE WITH YOUR PRESENTATION.

>> YES, MA'AM. I AM GOING TO PICK EVERYTHING UP.

>> COUNCIL I'M GOING TO ESPECIALLY UP THE QUESTIONS FOR ANYBODY THAT HAS SPOKEN AND THEN

WE'LL OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING AND THEN HAVE FURTHER QUESTIONS. >> COUNCILMAN.

>> YES. THANKS, MAYOR. I HAVE A QUESTION FOR CHIEF

HOWARD. >> BUT HE HASN'T SPOKEN YET. >> I KNOW YOU WERE COMFORTABLE.

CHIEF, THERE WAS TALK OF FIRE STATIONS IN THE TRAILS OF COTTON WOOD CREEK ARE YOU AWARE OF

THAT? >> WE'VE HAD SOME VERY PRELICK NARY ARE CONVERSATIONS

>> I SUPPOSE YOU WOULD HAVE TO HAVE EQUIPMENT THERE; IS THAT CORRECT

>> THAT'S CORRECT. >> THAT WOULD BE NEW EQUIPMENT. >> YES.

>> HOW MUCH IS OUR NEW FIRE STATION COST SNG. >> WE DON'T HAVE THE G.

IN P BUT CONSTRUCTION COST IS 5.5 IS WHAT WE BUDGETED. >> I UNDERSTAND.

>> WEED ALSO HAVE TO HAVE MORE FIREMEN AND PARAMEDICS. >> YES

>> OK. THANK YOU. FIRE WOMEN.

>> OH, I'M SORRY. >> THERE THUNDERBIRD. >> THANK YOU MA'AM.

JUST A COUPLE COMMENTS. FIRST OF ALL MY COMMENTS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE QUALITY

OF THIS PROJECT. >> THIS IS THE QUESTION TIME PERIOD.

>> I KNOW BUT IT'S A QUESTION IN THE FORM OF A STATEMENT. >> OK.

>> THERE AS COUPLE CLARIFICATIONS I WANT TO MAKE BECAUSE I THINK THIS IS KRIPT CALL BEFORE WE OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING. FIRST OFF THIS IS A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT. WE'VE APPROVED THAT. A LOT OF WHAT YOU'VE SEEN THAT IS BEING DISCUSSED IS A PART OF THE REQUIREMENTS OF A PLANNED DEVELOPMENT IN TERMS OF OPEN SPACE AND THINGS LIKE THAT. SECOND THING IN TERMS OF THE FIRE STATION IF WE WERE TO BUILD ANOTHER FIRE STATION IT PROBABLY WOULD NOT BE UP THERE. YOU KNOW BECAUSE IT'S TOO FAR AND TO EXTREME FOR US TO GET BACK VALUE. WHAT YOU WOULD WANT TO DO IS MOVE ONE CLOSER TO WATER VIEW OR SOMEONE IN THAT AREA SO IT SERVES MORE OF A CONSENT TRICK CIRCUMSTANCE CAM. THAT'S NOT TO SAY -- WE WOULDN'T BE GLAD FOR THE CONTRIBUTION TO THE FUTURE STATION BUT IT WOULD NOT NECESSARILY BE IN THIS LOCATION.

THESE ARE SOME THINGS AND I WROTE DOWN ONE COMMENT THAT THESE ARE THINGS THAT COULD BE.

>> OK. I REALLY WANT THIS PART TO BE THE QUESTION PART.

I WANT TO GIVE EVERYBODY AN OPPORTUNITY TO GIVE OPINIONS BUT THIS IS THE SECTION WHERE WE'RE

[01:20:02]

I HAVE A LOT OF I SHARE A LOT OF THE SAME FEELINGS. I'M GOING TO COME BACK TO YOU.

BECAUSE YOU ARE PRO STEKTING THE CITY. >> CAN I MAKE MY LAST COMMENT.

>> I AM ASKING POINT OF ORDER. COUNCILMAN DO YOU HAVE A QUESTION?

>> I DO HAVE A QUESTION. IN THE FORM OF A STATEMENT. I'M JOKING.

SO MY WHICH IS FOR CHIEF HOWARD. >> YOU HAVE STATEMENT IN THE FORM OF A QUESTION?

>> SO NO. I WANT TO ASK I DON'T WANT TO PUT YOU ON THE SPOT.

BUT WE CURRENTLY HAVE AN ISSUE IN TERMS OF RESPONSE TIMES IN THIS QUADRANT OF THE CITY GETTING OUR APPARATUSES OUT THERE IF IS A FIRE OR MEDICAL EMERGENCY.

IS THAT SOMETHING YOU'RE SEEING FREQUENTLY. >> THERE'S A CHALLENGE ON RESPONSE TEAMS. HOWEVER WE HAVEN'T STUDIED THIS AREA ENOUGH TO SAY X LOCATION IS THE BEST LOCATION TO SERVE THIS AREA THAT AREA. SO I MEAN THE ONLY DISCUSSIONS THAT WE'VE HAD WITH THE APPLICANT IS IF THEY WANT TO DEDICATE US LAND WHERE WOULD YOU WANT THE LAND AT? WE SAID ON THE THOROUGHFARE. IF THEY DEDICATED IT IT WOULD GET US BACK INTO THIS OTHER AREA IN THE FUTURE BUT I HAVEN'T STUDIED THIS BECAUSE IT'S NOT

BEEN SOMETHING THAT'S BEEN BROUGHT TO ME TO STUDY. >> RIGHT.

>> SO I MEAN THIS IS LIKE I SAID THIS IS VERY PRELIMINARY. I HAVEN'T HAD A CONVERSATION WITH THESE FOLKS AT ALL. FOR ME TO SIT HERE AND GIVE YOU A GUESSTIMATE OF WHERE THIS NEEDS TO BE WHETHER IT'S AT THE CORNER I DON'T KNOW THAT. I WOULD HAVE TO DO ANALYSIS FROM

DIFFERENT AREAS. >> YEAH I APPRECIATE IT. I THINK THIS IS AN IMPORTANT CONVERSATION TO HAVE BECAUSE WE CERTAINLY DON'T WANT TO MISS AN OPPORTUNITY TO LOOK INTO

PROVIDING THIS WITHIN THE PID. >> THERE'S GOING TO BE A CHALLENGE PROVIDING SERVICE TO

THAT AREA. >> YEAH. WE NEED IT NOW OR WE'RE GOING TO NEED IT LATER. SO AND THEN I'M SORRY I HAVE ONE MORE QUESTION.

FOR THE APPLICANT. THE SPLASH PAD THAT YOU MENTIONED WAS THAT BECAUSE IT'S FUNDED THROUGH THE PID WOULD THAT BE MAINTAINED BY THE H. OH A?

>> SO ALL THE ELEMENTS ARE GOING TO BE MAINTAINED BY THE PID. THEY'RE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC BUT THE CITY OF ROWLETT DOES NOT ACCEPT MAINTENANCE OF THOSE. DOES THAT ANSWER YOUR QUESTION?

>> SO WHEN YOU SAY MAYBE TAINTED BY THE P.I.D. >> IT'S -- LOOK AN H.

OH A THAT HAS TAXES. >> I WAS CLARIFYING THE CITY OF ROWLETT WOULD NOT BE MAINTAINING

THING PUBLIC ASSESS? >> THAT'S CORRECT. YES, SIR.

>> THANK YOU. >> COUNCILMAN? >> YEAH I HAVE A QUESTION FOR THE DEVELOPER. YOU-ALL HAVE DEVELOPED IN SEVERAL STATES.

I DON'T KNOW WHICH STATES. BUT WE'LL JUST MAYBE CONFINE IT TO TEXAS.

HAVE YOU REQUESTED PID APPS FOR ALL YOUR DEVELOPMENTS? >> NO WE HAVE NOT.

>> SO THIS IS THIS THE ONLY ONE. >> THIS IS THE FIRST ONE WE'VE REQUESTED A PID ON.

THIS IS THE FIRST ONE THAT HAS THIS LEVEL OF INFRASTRUCTURE THAT GOES IN AT THE VERY

BEGINNING >> OK. AND THEN I ALSO HAVE A QUESTION

FOR CHIEF. >> SURE. >> CHIEF HOWARD MY QUESTION FOR YOU IS WHAT'S THE MINIMUM NUMBER OF FIREFIGHTERS THAT YOU WOULD NEED TO STAFF THAT STATION?

>> I WOULD PROPOSE STAFFING IT WITH JUST A MINIMUM OF 15. >> OK.

. >> BECAUSE THAT GIVES YOU 12 WITH THE PEOPLE TO COVER FOR

PEOPLE BEING OFF AND STUFF. >> ANY ESTIMATE ON THE COST JUST BALLPARK?

>> PROBABLY 1.2, 3 SOMETHING LIKE THAT JUST FOR THE PURCELL COST.

IT'S GOING TO COST YOU ABOUT 600 OR 650. >> IS THAT ANNUALLY?

>> NO 1.23 IS GOING TO BE AN ANNUAL COST. >> OK.

[01:25:02]

DEVELOPMENT PLAN AND SERVICES AGREEMENT. >> SURE.

>> SORRY. THAT WAS A STATEMENT. THAT WAS AN EDITORIAL COMMENT.

>> THEN I HAVE A QUESTION. I'LL JUST GET THEM ALL OUT AT ONCE.

AND THEN MY QUESTION FOR YOU I KNOW THAT STAFF IS NOT RECOMMENDING APPROVAL AND BASICALLY YOUR REASONING FOR THAT IS A LACK OF DETAIL. SO WOULD THE DETAIL THAT WOULD BE PROVIDED IN THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT THEORETICALLY GIVE YOU THE INFORMATION THAT YOU WOULD

NEED TO BE ABLE TO RECOMMEND APPROVAL? >> I'M GOING TO ATTEMPT TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION BY PREFACING WITH THIS. THE INFORMATION THAT FROM WHAT I CAN YOU KNOW FROM A CURSORY PERSPECTIVE THAT I'VE REVIEWED AS IT RELATES TO THE OPEN SPACE THIS PLANNED DISTRICT EDGE LIGHTS THE FORM BASED CODE. THAT'S ONE PER RAM MET TR WE NEED TO KEEP IN MIND. THE OTHER FACET TO THIS DEVELOPMENT THERE HAVE SPECIFIC OPEN SPACE REQUIREMENTS WHICH I BELIEVE IS 14%. YES THEY'RE GOING ABOVE THAT AT 20%. KEEP IN MIND THIS WAS AMOVED PRIOR TO THE AMENDMENTS THAT

WERE MADE PREVIOUSLY WITH THESE PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS. >> THE WIDTH IS PER THE APPROVED CONCEPT PLAN THAT WAS APPROVED PRIOR TO THE AMIGEL DE LA PORTILLAED MEANT.

THERE ARE A LOT OF ELEMENTS THAT ARE SIMILAR. WHEN WE TALK ABOUT THE ACTIVE OPEN PACE SORE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE MATERIALS FOR TH TRAIL SYSTEM -- THIS I HAVE NOT HAD THE PURVIEW TO REVIEW. SO THE FIRE STATION ISSUE IS OUTSTANDING AN WELL.

THESE ARE THE ELEMENTS THAT WE FELT IF THEY WERE SPECIAL ENHANCEMENTS SO WE COULD DISCUSS

THEM WITH YOU AT THAT POINT. >> THANK YOU. >> WE HAVE BOND COUNCIL STILL.

>> I'M SORRY. >> I SAID YOU STILL HAVE BOND COUNCIL.

>> NO I'M GOOD. >> I'M JUST TEASING. COUNCIL MAP?

>> I FEEL GOOD I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH QUESTIONS TONIGHT. YOU ANSWERS 14% WAS IN THE

DEVELOPMENT CODE AND THEY'RE PROPOSING 20%. >> CORRECT.

PLUS I DON'T KNOW IF THAT OPEN SPACE CONSIDERS THOSE WIDER MEDIANS AND THE HOMES.

>> UPON OUR INITIAL REVIEW FROM THE TECHNICAL ASPECT WHEN THE AMENDMENTS CAME IN THE LOT LAY OUTS WERE AS CONSISTENT AS POSSIBLE WITH THE FORM BASED CODE.

IT WAS BEING REALIZED OR ENVISIONS AT THAT TIME TOO. A LOT OF SPECIAL WAS ENDORSE UNDERSTAND THE BEGINNING. THE CONCEPT SHOWS -- 2 TYPES OF TRAILS SOME IN THE FLOODPLAIN AND SOME NOT. ORIGINAL CONVERSATION WITH US PERHAPS THEY WERE GOING TO DO CONCRETE TRAILS IN THE FLOODPLAIN WHICH AGAIN YOU KNOW THAT WAS SOMETHING WELL LET'S REVISIT. PERHAPS WE MAY NOT DO THAT. SO AGAIN THE ENHANCE MEANTS

ASSOCIATED WITH THE TRAIL SYSTEM IS NOT CLEAR WRET. >> RIGHT.

I THINK THAT'S MY 2ND POINT IS. AND TO THE APPLICANT THAT'S NOT WHAT YOU'RE RECOMMENDING AT THIS POINT. YOU'RE LOOKING TO DESIGNATE THIS AREA AS THE PID AND WORK THROUGH

THE ACTUAL ITEMS. IF YOU CAN COME TO AGREEMENT? >> YES, SIR THAT'S CORRECT.

>> AND IF YOU HAD TO BUILD OUT IF YOU DIDN'T HAVE THE PID AND THAT 6 PERCENT SEPTEMBER THAT YOU WOULD HAVE TO BE AND I DON'T ALWAYS AGREE FROM THAT VISUAL. I THINK THAT SPACIAL DEAL IS GREATER THAN OUR FORM BASED CODE. HOW MANY LOTS WOULD YOU HAVE TO

DO TO MAKE THOSE DISAPPEAR. >> YOU'RE CORRECT. THE LOT NUMBER WOULD NOT GO UP BECAUSE IT'S FIXED IN THE P.D. WHAT HAPPENS IS THE LOT PRICE GOES UP AND AFFORD GUILTY GOES DOWN. ALSO THE AAMENITIES THAT ARE DELIVERED GO AWAY AND ARE DECREASE BECAUSE ADDITIONAL FUND SOMETHING NOT AVAILABLE TO SUPPORT THEM.

[01:30:11]

>> SO I WANT TO UNDERSTAND VERY CLEARLY WHY IT IS SO IMPORTANT TO YOU AS THE DEVELOPMENT -- DEVELOPER TO HAVE THE P.I. THE BEFORE WE HAVE A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT AND THIS MORE DEFINED?

>> SURE. CAN I ANSWER ANSWER THAT IN 2 DIRECTION THENS.

>> ANSWER ANYWAY YOU WANT. >> WE HAVE CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS TO THE SELLER.

WE HAVE CERTAIN REQUEER MINUTES. ONE IS WE CONTINUE TO HAVE FORWARD PROGRESS.

IN DISCUSSING AN DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT WE SAID SHOULD WE DO AN AGREEMENT NOW AND THE CONVERSATION WELL THAT IS THE NEXT STEP DICTATED BY THE PROCESS.

THE STEP OF DRAWING A CIRCLE ON THE MAP CHECKS THE BOX. IT KEEPS THE PROCESS MOVING FORWARD AN GETS US TO WHERE WE NEED TO BE WHICH IS NEGOTIATED AN AGREEMENT WHAT IT WILL LOOK LIKE HOW IT WILL BE FUNDED THE TOTAL DOLLAR AMOUNT. THAT'S THE NEXT STEP.

>> I'LL ASK A FOLLOW-UP QUESTION. >> YES, MA'AM.

>> SO WHAT'S THE ARM OF WAITING UNTIL THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT IS NEGOTIATED AND MORE DETAILS?

>> THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION. THERE AS LOT OF EXPENDITURE AND EFFORT ON OUR PART AS WELL.

SO A LOT OF FEES ARE INCURRED IN NEGOTIATING THAT DEVELOPMENT. HAVING A PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT SHOULD WE GET TO A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT THAT STIPULATES HOW THAT WORKS.

OTHERWISE WE COULD GO DOWN THE PATH AND IN 6 MONTHS WE'RE IN DEFAULT OF OUR CONTRACT AND WE

HAVE NO PROCESS. >> YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE GO DOWN TO THE DEVELOPMENT ADWROEMENT ANYWAY REGARDLESS. THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT COSTS ARE GOING TO HAVE TO BE

INCURRED. >> AND ONE THING I WANTED TO POINT OUT.

IT WAS NOT SO MUCH THAT EVERYONE DOESN'T AGREE THAT THEY'LL BE A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT.

THE TIMING PIES IT'S NOT IN ANYONE'S INTEREST TO RUSH A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT.

THOSE THINGS TAKE A COUPLE BELONGS TO GET CORRECTLY DOCK MENTSDZ AND MAKING SURE -- WE WORK THROUGH THE CITY'S GOALS AND ASKS. THE PROBLEM IS WE HAVE A CONTRACTUAL DEADLINES. WE'VE HAD SEVERALX SENSE SHINS. WE WANTED OUR SELLER KNOW THAT WE CAN PERFORM. ONE OF THE THINGS FOR US TO PERFORM IS TO HAVE A P.I.D.

>> IF YOU DON'T HAVE A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT YOU CAN AFFORD ON THE UPON TRACT AS ALL

>> FOR US WE NEED TO GET THAT FORMED SO THAT WE CAN MOVE FORWARD.

WE UNDERSTAND WE WANT TO MOVE FORWARD TO BONDS. WE CERTAINLY I AGREE WITH THAT.

THE TIMING ISSUE IS SIMPLY THE CON GRASS SHIEL DEADLINE BUT I HAVE HEARTBURN.

I'M NOT TRYING TO ATTACK -- GOOD FAITH. WE'VE EXPRESSED FRUSTRATION THAT THIS IS BECOMING PIECE FEEL TO US. THERE WAS NO REASON WE COULDN'T DO THIS IN ONE BIG THE ZONING AND THE AS FILLED -- FACILITIES AGREEMENT.

WE WANT THIS AREA DEVELOPED BUT THIS PIECE MEAL STUFF IS VERY VERY DIFFICULT.

>> WE AGREE. THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN OUR PREFERENCE AS WELL.

>> THANK YOU. COUNCILMAN MARGOLIN HAS. >> I WANT TO CLARIFY IF THAT'S POSSIBLE. SO LET'S JUST HYPE AT THE TIME KILL CAN AND WE BEGIN THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT. THE PID OR WHAT WE APPROVE HERE IN TERMS OF WHAT POSSIBLY COULD BE COVERED IN THE PAID WOULD BE PART OF THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT AND THEN HYPOTHETICALLY LET'S SAY WE CAN'T COME TO TO AN AGREEMENT. THEN OUR VOTE ON THE PID WOULD

MEAN NOTHING. THE PID WOULD NOT EXIST >> DAVID I HOPE YOU WERE

[01:35:10]

LISTENING. DAVID. >> OK.

LISTEN. SO IF HYPOTHETICALLY WE WERE TO APPROVE THE PID AND A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT WOULD NEVER COME TO PRUGS SHIN. COULD YOU -- THE SOLUTION REQUIRED A MAJORITY OF THE PROPERTY OPEN NERGS. IT REQUIRED A PUBLIC HEARING.

WE COULD HAVE WE COULD DISSOLVE IT THROUGH A COMPLICATED PROCESS.

YOU UNDERSTAND WE APPROVE THE -- WE HAVE 6 MONTHS TO CREATE THE PID.

THE APPLICANT IS ASKING US TO DO IT TONIGHT BUT THE STATE LAW DOESN'T REQUIRE IT TO BE DONE TONIGHT. WE HAVE UNTIL JUNE TO FORMALLY DO IT.

DOES THAT MAKE SENSE. >> SO THE ANSWER IS IT COULD BE DAYS INVOLVED AT OUR SCRUGGS BUT

IT'S A COMPLICATED PROCESS? >> THANK YOU. WE NEED A PETITION FROM THE LAW

OWNER TO ACTIVATE IT. >> TO DISSOLVE IT IT WOULD HAVE TO BE A PETITION FROM THE PROPERTY OWNER. OTHER QUESTIONS BEFORE I OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING? OK. THIS IS A PUBLIC HEARING. I WILL OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING.

IF ANYONE WOULD LIKE THE SPEC ON THIS MATTER PLEASE RAISE YOUR HAND.

COME FORWARD PLEASE AND STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS AND IF YOU WOULD FILL OUT A CARD BEFORE YOU

WOULD LEAVE I WOULD APPRECIATE IT? >> BRIAN.

I DIDN'T INTEND TO BE HERE. >> IT'S AN EARLY NIGHT. >> A COUPLE COMMENTS.

I LIKE THE IDEA OF DEVELOPING THIS. I THINK THE MASTER PLAN IS IS THE WAY TO GO. I'M NOT HEARING CERTAINLY AS TO WHAT IS BEING PLANNED TO MAKE ME COMFORTABLE TO HAVING THE CITY I ASSUME A RISK THIS IS VERY DIFFICULT TO ABSOLV.

I WOULD LIKE FOR SOME MORE SPECIFICITY. MY APOLOGIES.

IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THE DEVELOPERS ARE ASKING US TO I ASSUME RISK THAT MORE RIGHTLY BELONG WITH THE PRIVATE SECTOR DEVELOPMENT GROUP. THANK YOU.

>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >> NIP ELSE WISH TO SPEAK ON THIS AT THIS TIME.

SEEING NO -- ANYONE. THE NORMAL PROCESS AT THIS TIME WOULD BE TO ENTERTAIN A MOTION AND A 2ND AND THEN HAVE DISCUSSION. I WILL OPEN IT UP WHAT YOU WOULD

LIKE TO DO. >> YOU WANT TO HAVE A LITTLE DISCUSSION BEFORE WE DO THE MOTION? WE USUALLY DO IT AFTER A MOTION. YOU GOING TO PUSH THE BUTTON? I SAID USUALLY WE HAVE DISCUSSION AFTER A MOTION. GO AHEAD.

BRIAN WOULD YOU LIKE TO SPEAK NOW? DOES ANYONE WANT TO PRESENT A

MOTION? COUNCILMAN? >> YEAH I MAKE A MOTION THAT WE

APPROVE THE FORMATION OF A PID FOR TRAILS OF COTTON WOOD CREEK. >> I HAVE A MOTION.

DO I HAVE A 2ND? COUNCILMAN. WE HAVE A MOTION AND 2ND.

AT THIS TIME WE'LL TAKE DISCUSSION. I'M TRYING.

COUNCILMAN? >> YEAH I MADE THE MOTION SO I GUESS I'LL TALK FIRST.

THE REASON I'M SUPPORTING THIS MOTION EVEN THOUGH IT IS A LITTLE BIT OUT OF ORDER I HAD THE CHANCE TO MEET WITH THE DEVELOPER AND GET A LITTLE BACK STORY.

AND WHY THIS DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT WASN'T BROUGHT FORWARD SOONER.

REALLY NO FAULT OF ANYONE BUT THERE WAS CIRCUMSTANCES THAT WERE OUT OF ANYBODY'S CONTROL THAT I THINK KIND OF GOT THINGS OUT OF WHACK IN THIS PARTICULAR SITUATION.

I THINK WE'RE NOW RESOLVING. AND WE'RE GETTING TO THE POINT YES I THINK WE CAN ALL AGREE UP HERE AND IN THE AUDIENCE THAT WE NEED A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT. AND I WISH WE WOULD HAVE STARTED THIS 3 MONTHS AGO. BUT YOU CAN'T LOOK BACK IN THESE SITUATIONS AND NOW THERE'S AN EFFORT TO TRY TO GET PEOPLE AT THE TABLE AND START TO TALK. THERE'S BEEN A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF EFFORTS THAT'S BEEN PUT INTO TRYING TO DEVELOP THIS PIECE OF PROPERTY.

UNLESS WE'RE PLANNING ON SELLING IT I HAVEN'T SEEN ANOTHER DECENT PROPOSAL COME IN FOR THIS THICK

[01:40:02]

TO THE POINT WHERE THIS WOULD BE A HARD P.I. DFRMENT TO DISSOLVE. THIS IS A HARD SITE TO DEVELOP -- I WOULD ANTICIPATE ANY FUTURE DEVELOPER THAT IS GOING TO COME IN AND TRY TO DEVELOP THIS SITE IS GOING TO BE ASKING FOR SOME SERIOUS INCENTIVES AND PROBABLY WANTING TO DO A PID JUST BECAUSE OF THE COMPLEXITY. I DON'T HAVE A LOT OF HEARTBURN IF IT STAYS A PID BECAUSE SOME FUTURE DEVELOPMENT WILL PROBABLY NEED TO USE THAT TOOL AT SOME PONT TO DEVELOP THIS SITE.

SO AGAIN I GO BACK TO SAY URN LET'S WE'RE GOING TO SELL THE PROPERTY THESE ARE TITLES WE HAVE TO PUT IN PLACE TO GET A LARGE PART OF OUR DEVELOPMENT PLANS.

I LIKE THIS IN TERMS OF THE CARE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT THE PARKS AND AMENITIES AND THAT TO BE OPEN FOR THE PUBLIC. THEIR WILLINGNESS TO COME TO THE TABLE.

IF THIS MOVES US FORWARD AND GETS US ALL AT THE TABLE TO TALK TO GET THIS DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT GOING. THEN THAT IS WHY I WILL BE APPROVING AND MAKING THIS

MOTION. THANK YOU, MAYOR. >> THANK YOU.

COUNCILMAN? >> YES. I TEND TO AGREE WITH COUNCILMEMBER ON THIS ISSUE. I THINK THE FACT THE PID DOES NOT AFFECT THE CITY IN TERMS OF IT'S CREDIT RATING AND I'M SORRY THE COST I THINK THAT THIS WOULD PROBABLY ALSO BE A GOOD OPPORTUNITY FOR THE CITY TO LOOK AT TAKING THE OPPORTUNITY IN THIS PID TO INCREASE PUBLIC SAFETY INFRASTRUCTURE IN AN AREA THAT NEEDS MORE INFRASTRUCTURE. SO USING THIS ANSWER AN OPPORTUNITY COULD BE VERY BENEFICIAL TO THE CITY. AGAIN I CONCUR WITH THE COMMENTS

MADE BY COUNCILMAN ON THIS ISSUE. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

BRIAN? >> THANK YOU, MAYOR. I DO WANT TO MAKE THIS COMMENT BECAUSE I THINK BOTH COUNCIL MEMBERS MADE REALLY GOOD POINTS. YOU KNOW OUR ISSUE IS THIS.

IT'S NOT THAT WE'RE OPPOSING A PID HERE. FIRST OFF WITH A PID YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT ENHANCEMENTS THAT YOU'RE BUYING WITH THIS. TYPICALLY YOU WOULDN'T WANT TO USE A PID SIMPLY JUST FOR THE INFRASTRUCTURE. WHEN WE WENT THROUGH THE PROCESS WITH SAPPHIRE WAY BAY WE KNEW WHAT WE WERE BUYING -- ONE OF THE KEY COMPONENTS WE KNEW THE LAGOON WAS PUBLIC. WHICH KNEW THAT WOULD PROVIDE PUBLIC AMENITIES THAT WE WANTED FOR OUR AREA. SO OUR STRUGGLE WAS IS THAT WE DIDN'T HAVE THE SPECIFICS TO BE ABLE TO RECOMMEND EITHER WAY THAT YOU WOULD GO WITH THIS. SO THERE'S A LOT OF UNCERTAINTY WITH THIS AND YOU KNOW AND I THINK IF COUNCIL UNDERSTANDS THAT THAT IS FINE.

I SALES AM A LITTLE NERVOUS ABOUT BECAUSE I THINK YOU KNOW CHIEF HOWARD WAS ABSOLUTELY CORRECT. WE DON'T KNOW WHETHER OR NOT THIS WOULD BE A GOOD LOCATION FOR A PUBLIC SAFETY AS IS FILLED I THINK. WE DO KNOW THAT THERE IS A NEED IN THE NORTH EASTERN QUADRANT OF THE CITY BUT WHICH DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS THE RIGHT PLACE.

I WOULD HATE TO SEE US MAKE A DECISION WHERE WE SEE THIS AS A POSSIBILITY BUT IT'S NOT A PROBABILITY. I WANT TO MAKE A COMMENT SO WE LEVEL THE PLAYING FIELD THERE THAT EVEN IF THERE IS A NEED UP THERE IT MAY NOT BE STRATEGIC CALI THE RIGHT LOCATION.

>> THANK YOU, MAYOR -- >> DID YOU WANT TO COMMENT ON THAT.

>> BRIAN I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE SAYING ESPECIALLY WITH REGARDS TO SAPPHIRE BAY.

YOU KNOW I THINK THERE'S GOING TO BE OTHER IMPROVEMENTS THAT COME OUT OF THAT PID.

YES WE DO KNOW ABOUT THE BIG ONE. WE'RE NOT SAYING THIS IS WHERE THE FIRE STATION IS GOING TO BE. I THINK THAT WAS A GOOD FAITH EXPERT.

THEY KNEW THAT WAS GOING TO BE A NEED. THEY BROUGHT THAT FORWARD AS A POSSIBILITY. I'M SURE THEY WOULD RATHER USE IT FOR ANOTHER PARK.

SO THEN WE GET TIED UP IN WANTING TO KNOW THOSE SPECIFICS WHERE YES IT WOULD HAVE BEEN

[01:45:05]

>> THIS IS JUST CREATING THE PAID. >> IF I DIDN'T I THINK WE NEEDED THIS PID -- AND I COULD BE WRONG. I THINK THERE'S A LOT OF CHALLENGES WITH THIS SITE TO WHERE WE'RE REQUIRING THEM TO PUT SPRINKLERS IN THE HOPES THAT THEY'RE GOING TO NEED EVERY TOOL TO BE ABLE TO DEVELOP THIS SITE. I DON'T HAVE A LOT OF HEARTACHE IN CREATING THIS PID AND WHETHER WE HAVE TO USE IT OR NEVER USE IT THAT TOOL IS THERE.

I'LL BE ONBOARD WITH EVERYONE. IF WE CAN'T COME TO THAT AGREEMENT I'M NOT GOING APPROVE

THE ISSUANCE IF WE CAN'T COME TO THAT APPROVEMENT. >> COUNCILMEMBER?

>> I'M SORRY I ALSO WANT TO ASK THE CITY MANNER HOW LONG DO YOU THINK IT WOULD TAKE IF WE WERE GOING TO BUSCH THIS TO ANOTHER MEETING HOW LONG WOULD IT -- PUSH THIS TO ANOTHER MEETING HOW LONG WOULD IT TAKE TO EVALUATE A STATION BEING PUT IN THIS SPECIFIC PROPERTY; IS THAT EVEN

POSSIBLE? >> WHAT I WOULD OFFER COUNCILMEMBER IS I DON'T THINK THAT THAT WOULD BE A FAIR AND JUST A REASON TO HOLD THIS UP. FIRST OFF WE'RE GOING THROUGH FACILITIES ASSESSMENT NOW AS YOU KNOW BUT I THINK THERE'S A LOT MORE LEGWORK THAT HAS TO COME INTO PLAY TO DETERMINE THE EXACT LOCATION OF FUTURE STATIONS. UNTIL WE KNOW WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN AT NORTH SHORE FOR EXAMPLE YOU KNOW THERE'S THE POSSIBILITY WE WOULD NEED A STATION THERE BUT UNTIL WE KNOW WHAT IT IS WE DON'T KNOW WHERE THAT STATION WOULD BEST FIT OR WHAT SIZE IT WOULD NEED TO BE. YOU KNOW SAPPHIRE BAY WE'RE COMFORTABLE THAT WE'RE GOING TO NEED ONE DOWN THERE. AND THERE'S OTHER REASONS THAT RIGHT NOW EVEN IT WOULD HELP PARTICULARLY ON I-30 AND SOME OTHER THING. SO ON THIS ONE I THINK IT WOULD

BE UNFAIR TO HOLD UP THE PROCESS TO TRY TO DETERMINE THAT. >> SO I'M GOING TO MAKE A COMMENT BECAUSE I KNOW COUNCILWOMAN BROWN WANTS TO MAKE COMMENTS AND I'M NOT GOING TO BE THAT LAST WORD. THANK YOU FOR POINTING THAT OUT MATT.

I TRY TO GIVE EVERYBODY AN OPPORTUNITY BUT I DON'T MEAN TO BE THE LAST WORD.

SO HERE'S MY BIGGEST POINT. PID AND THEN DEVELOP MEANT AGREEMENT YOU LOSE NEGOTIATING POWER THAT'S WHY I HAVE HEARTACHE WITH THE ORDER -- MAYBE PERFECTLY FINE.

I UNDERSTAND YOU MAY NEVER ACTIVATE THE PID BUT I ALSO UNDERSTAND THAT IT'S MUCH EASIER TO HAVE DISCUSSIONS AT THE TABLE ALL AT ONE TIME THAN TO APPROVE A FINANCING COOL THAT THE CITY HAS TO BE PART OF AN AND THEN NEGOTIATE TERMS. I WILL NOT SUPPORT THE MOTION TONIGHT. DOESN'T MEAN I WILL NOT SUPPORT IT IN THE FUTURE.

I THINK THERE'S A LOT OF GOOD REASONS TO HAVE A PID ON THIS PROPERTY.

COUNCILWOMAN BROWN. >> I AGREE WITH YOU MAY YOUR AND THAT DOES MAKE THIS A BIT OF A TOUGHER DECISION BUT I ALSO AGREE WITH COUNCILMAN THAT THIS IS A DIFFICULT PIECE OF PROPERTY TO DEVELOP. THESE GUYS HAVE WORKED ON IT FOR A LONG TIME.

AND IT IS A BIT OF A ROLE OF THE DICE AND SOME GOOD FAITH THAT WE WILL BE SHOWING TO SUPPORT THE FORMATION OF THIS PID. ALSO MET WITH THE DEVELOPERS WHICH IS THE FIRST TIME I'VE EVER DONE THAT BEFORE WE MAKE A DECISION. THAT'S NOT MY PRACTICE BUT BECAUSE OF SOME CONFUSING DIRECTION THAT THE DEVELOPER GOT INITIALLY IT CAUSED THIS SITUATION THAT WE'RE WORKING THROUGH TONIGHT. I BELIEVE THAT WITH THE PROPER DIRECTION IT WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN PIECEMEAL. SO HERE WE ARE AS MATT SAID.

WE CAN'T LOOK BACK. I DO BELIEVE WE'RE GOING TO NEED A PID TO DEVELOP THIS PROPERTY NO MATTER WHO DEVELOPS IT. AND SO I AM GOING TO SUPPORT THE FORMATION OF THIS PID.

>> IS THAT A MISTAKE? I WAS JUST JOKING. COUNCILMEMBER

>> I'M TRYING TO MAKE SURE I'M GOING TO MAKE THE RIGHT DECISION HERE.

CLARIFIED TO ME THAT IF THIS PAID WAS TO BE EXCITED THAT IN THE FUTURE IF WE WERE TO ISSUE

[01:50:05]

THE PID WE DON'T HAVE TO DO THAT GIVEN THE NEGOTIATIONS. >> WE NEVER HAVE TO ACTIVATE THE

PID. THAT'S THE CORRECT LANGUAGE. >> IF WE PASS THIS THEN YOU GO THROUGH THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT AND IF YOU DON'T AGREE TO THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT WE

GO BACK TO THE ISSUE WHERE IT'S JUST A PID THAT'S DOING NOTHING. >> I WASN'T RECOGNIZING YOU.

>> AGAIN. >> I'M RECOGNIZING YOU NOW. >> I KIND OF LIKE TO HAVE A PETITION FOR DISSOLUTION THAT WE WOULD HOLD IN TRUST. I DON'T KNOW IF THE DEVELOPER IS

INCLINED TO PROVIDE THAT. >> WELL NOW WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL NIGHT?

>> YOU MAY. >> THAT IS SOMETHING THAT WE DISCUSSED INTERNALLY.

SO THAT IS ABSOLUTELY AN OPTION ON THE TABLE. THE SAME PROCESS FOR FORMING A PID YOU RECEIVE THE PUBLIC HEARING. YOU HEARING IT AND IT'S A SIMPLE

PROCESS PARTICULARLY IF YOU HAVE THE PETITION IN YOUR HANDS. >> IF WE GIVE YOU THAT PETITION INTERNALLY THAT WOULD HELP YOU BE COMFORTABLE MOVING FORWARD. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS ACCEPT THAT. WE DICTATE THAT IN ESCROW WHEN WE GIVE IT TO YOU.

WOW CAN CALL THE PUBLIC HEARING CANDACE SOLVE IT. >> I DON'T HAVE IN MY POSSESSION A PETITION TO DISSOLVE THE PID TO HOLD IN TRUST. IF THE MOTION ASK APPROVED

AVOTED ON AS PRESENTED THEN. >> WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY -- >> WE'RE GOING TO HE'S GOING TO HAVE TO WITHDRAW THE MOTION AND THE 2ND WILL HAVE TO BE WITHDRAWN OR YOU'LL HAVE TO VOTE

ON THE MAJORITY. >> I UNDERSTAND THAT. YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT REVISUAL THING MOTION TO INCLUDE A CONDITION IN ESCROW BUT I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE LEGALITY OF

THAT -- REAL CLEAR UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT THAT MEANS. >> YOU SAID YOU DON'T HAVE IT IN YOUR POSSESSION. WHY ARE YOU SAYING THAT STATEMENT?

>> WELL BECAUSE THE CONCEPT IS BEING PRESENTED. IF WE HAD A PETITION TO DISSOLVE THAT WE DIDN'T FORMALLY RECOGNIZE AND VOTE ON THEN WE WOULD HOLD THAT IN TRUST.

IF WE CAN'T WORK OUT A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT THEN WE HAVE THE PETITION TO DISSOLVE

AND WE CAN ACT ON IT RATHER THAN KEEPING THE PID OUT THERE. >> I UNDERSTAND THAT BUT YOU SAID A MINUTE AGO YOU DON'T HAVE A PETITION TO DISSOLVE IN YOUR HANDS.

I AM ASKING WHY YOU SAID THAT A MINUTE AGO. >> YEAH.

I DON'T WANT US TO APPROVE THIS PID WITHOUT HAVING A PETITION TO DISSOLVE AS A CONDITION.

>> AS A CONDITION. YOU DIDN'T SAY AS A CONDITION. YOU SAID YOU DON'T HAVE IT IN

YOUR HANDS. >> AND I DON'T. >> WHY DO YOU HAVE TO HAVE IT IN

YOUR HANDS AS OPPOSED TO A CONDITION OF THE MOTION? >> IT COULD BE A CONDITION OF

THE MOTION. >> I'M NOT TRYING TO PICK APART YOUR WORDS.

I'M TRYING TO UNDERSTAND. >> IT'S KIND OF A CONDITIONAL APPROVAL OF A PAID.

MY PREFERENCE WOULD BE HAVE THE CONDITION IN MY HANDS. UNTIL A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT.

>> SO WE HAVE A MEETING IN 2 WEEKS. CAN WE GET A CONDITION TO

DISSOLVE AND VOTE ON THIS IN 2 WEEKS? >> I THINK SO.

>> CAN I JUST ASK A POINT OF CLARIFICATION? CAN YOU ACCEPT THE PID WITH THE CONDITION THAT A DISSOLUTION PETITION IS DELIVERED IN BECAUSE WE COULD HAVE IT DELIVERED TO

MR. BERMAN LATER IN THE SQUEAK. >> I'M TALKING TO CITY ATTORNEY AND SHE JUST ADVISED HE WOULD

PREFER WE DIDN'T DO THAT. >> I WOULD PREFER TO AVOID CONDITIONALLY IMPROVING THIS ON THE CONDITION THAT WE RECEIVE YOU SEE THE INCONSISTENCY AND ILLOGICAL APPROACH IN DOING

THAT. >> MAY I MAKE A SUGGESTION? >> SURE?

>> GIVEN THAT THE PID IS NOT FORMALLY CREDITED YOU WOULD NOT PUBLISH.

>> COME ON GUYS. >> WE HAVE A MOTION ON THE TABLE.

IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO HOLD THAT MOTION WE'LL BE VERY GLAD TO VOTE ON THAT.

[01:55:01]

ISSUE WITH A 2 WEEK CONSIDERATION IN 2 WEEKS. >> SO NECK CAN NICKELLY UNDER

ROBERTS RULES -- SO MECHANICALLY WE CAN MOVE TO TABLE IT. >> COUNCILMAN?

>> I MOVE TO WITHDRAW MY MOTION. >> I 2ND IT. >> COUNCILWOMAN BELL.

>> DID YOU WANT TO SAY SOMETHING ELSE DAVID? DREW WHAT ARE YOU DOING BACK

THERE? ARE WE DONE? >> I DO HAVE ONE QUICK IF WE ARE GOING TO HOLD IT OVER GIVEN THE WAY THAT THESE ARE PRESENTED TO THE ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE I WANT TO MAKE CLEAR THAT WE WOULD NEED TO HOLD THE PUBLIC HEARING OVER AND RE-OPEN IT AND CONTINUE IT SO THAT WE DON'T HAVE TO RENOTICE IT. BECAUSE I KNOW WE'VE CLOSED IT.

I JUST WANTED TO MAKE THAT POINT. >> THE PUBLIC HEARING HAS BEEN

CLOSED. >> BECAUSE THE WAY THAT WE'VE DONE THESE WHEN MULTIPLE CONTINUANCES HAVE OCCURRED IN THE PAST YOU'VE CLOSED THE PUBLIC HEARING AND THE MINUTES I WOULD I ASSUME. SO WE NEED TO RE-OPEN IT AND HOLD IT OVER TO THE MARCH 17TH DATE. SO THAT WE CAN REFLECT THAT PROPERTY IN ALL THE

DOCUMENTATION. THAT'S HOW IT'S BEEN DONE. >> HE'S GOOGLING.

>> IT'S HOW IT'S BEEN DONE. I PROMISE THIS IS HOW IT'S DONE IN THE DOZENS OF PID COUNCILS

I'VE DONE BEFORE. >> THANK YOU. >> I'M NOT USED TO YOU TALKING

IN A COUNCIL MEETINGS. >> I KNOW WHICH IS A GOOD THING. ALL RIGHT.

SO WHAT I'M GOING TO SUGGEST UNDER THOSE CIRCUMSTANCES IS THAT THERE'S GOING TO HAVE TO BE A MOTION TO TABLE. YOU'D YOU THE MAYOR DON'T NECESSARILY HAVE A MOTION.

YOU CAN ANNOUNCE IT'S BEEN REOPENED BUT THE NOTION TABLE SHOULD BE FOR A DATE AND TIME

CERTAIN WHICH WOULD BE MARCH 17TH AT 7:30 P.M. >> I'LL ENTERTAIN A MOTION.

COUNCILMAN. >> I MAKE A MOTION TO TABLE THE APPROVAL OF THE PID UNTIL THE

MARCH 17TH MEETING AT 7:30 P.M. >> COUNCILMAN MARGOLIN HAS. >> YES I'LL 2ND THAT MOTION --

>> ANY OTHER DISCUSSION AT THE RISK OF ASKING THAT QUESTION? CALL THE VOTE.

THAT PASSES. 7 NIL. I WILL RE-OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING -- AND HOLD THE PUBLIC HEARING OVER UNTIL WE RECONSIDER THIS MATTER MARCH
