NO ACTION OR DISCUSSION MAY BE TAKEN BY CITY COUNCIL DURING PUBLIC COMMENTS ON NON AGENDA ITEMS. TO ADDRESS CITY COUNCIL, PLEASE COMPLETE THE WHITE OR YELLOW CARD AND PRESENT IT TO THE DESIGNATED AREA PRIOR TO THE MEETING. ALL RIGHT. FIRST WE HAVE UP FOR FIVE MINUTES, MR. ROBERT.

THANK YOU, MR. MAYOR AND COUNCIL. MY NAME IS ROBERT BATTLE. ONCE AGAIN WE HAVE THREE PRETTY WELL EMPTY PROCLAMATIONS THAT DON'T DO ANYTHING TO ACTUALLY BENEFIT THE PEOPLE. I DON'T LIKE HAVING NATIVE AND AMERICAN AMERICAN JERK THE INDIANS AROUND FOR EVERY TREATY THEY EVER DID. I'M SORRY. THE JUDGE LEFT THE MUNICIPAL COURT. HERE IS A COURT OF NO RECORD. THERE'S NO STENOGRAPHER. IF YOU COME TO COURT HERE, THERE'S NO RECORDS, THERE'S NO AUDIO RECORDING, THERE'S NO VIDEO, THERE'S NO STENOGRAPHER. THAT'S THE SITUATION IN 709 COURTS IN TEXAS. THAT IS BASICALLY CORRUPTION OF 200 YEARS IN TEXAS. AND I HAVE CHALLENGED YOU SEVERAL TIMES, MR. MAYOR, TO END THE COURTS OF NO RECORD.

SPEAKING OF COURTS, THE 15TH CIRCUIT OF APPEALS ACCEPTED MY ANSWER TO THE ANSWER FROM THE SECRETARY OF STATE, NELSON AND TRAVIS COUNTY COMMISSIONER. AND THERE'S A BY THE WAY, THERE'S 93 PARTIES IN MY LAWSUIT. SO I HAVE 20 DEFENDANTS. EVERY DEFENDANT HAS FOUR AND A HALF

[00:20:02]

USUALLY. BASICALLY, THEY WANTED TO TEAR DOWN A 90 OR EXCUSE ME, 29 INCH, PROBABLY 150 YEAR OLD PECAN TREE, 147 ACRES. AND THEY CAN'T WORK AROUND ONE TREE. WELL, BASICALLY THE WAY IT WORKS IS THE TREES SHALL NOT BE REMOVED WITH NEW PLANTINGS IF THEY ARE WITHIN THE BUFFERED AREA. AND THEN ANOTHER, I GUESS IT'S ANOTHER 15FT BACK FROM THERE. SO MOST OF THE TREES ALONG THE ROAD ARE PROTECTED. END OF STORY. THEY DON'T GET TO PUT WAREHOUSES THERE. WHY WOULD YOU GUYS WANT SIX WAREHOUSES THERE? THAT'S 52 LOADING DOCKS WITH ABOUT 218 WHEELERS TRIPS.

SECTION 14.03047. NO PERMIT SHALL OCCUR UNTIL LANDSCAPE PLAN BY REGISTERED ARCHITECT OR CITY ENGINEERS, WHEN HEALTHY IS 1503 021738. WHEN HEALTHY NATIVE TREES ARE LOCATED WITHIN THE REQUIRED BUFFER YARD, THE EXISTING TREES AND SHRUBS SHALL NOT BE REMOVED OR REPLACED WITH NEW PLANTINGS. THAT'S PRETTY STRAIGHTFORWARD. THAT'S THE MINOR CODES. ALSO IN THERE WE HAVE SOME HEAVY INDUSTRIAL SITE DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS. LET'S TALK ABOUT SETBACKS FROM THE PARKING LOT FROM EVERYWHERE. SO YOU GUYS REALLY KIND OF BLEW IT ON THAT ONE. SO IT'S ALSO IN MY IT'S ALSO IN MY LAWSUIT I'M TRYING TO GET THAT STOPPED TOO. IT SEEMS LIKE I'M HAVING TO DO YOUR JOB. EVERY HISTORIC THING IN TOWN YOU GUYS ARE TRYING TO DESTROY. THE PARKS ARE EMPTY.

AND YOU WANT TO TELL US YOU LOVE OUR CHILDREN? I DON'T THINK SO. WE HAVE SO MUCH MONEY.

WHY DO WE HAVE TO PAY HEB AND HOME DEPOT $20 MILLION. AND THEN TWO OF THE PARCELS ON THERE. THEY DON'T EVEN GENERATE TAXES ANYMORE. YOU GUYS NEED TO CLAW BACK A THIRD OF THAT 20 MILLION AND A THIRD OF THAT 20 YEAR GIVEAWAY. CAPMETRO DOESN'T EVEN RUN ON THE WEEKENDS, AND WE'RE PAYING THEM $0.01 OF EVERY EIGHT AND A QUARTER SALES TAX. THAT'S DECEPTIVE TRADE PRACTICE. I'M TRYING TO STOP THAT, TOO. COUNTY COMMISSIONER TRAVILLION IS ALSO THE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD OF CAPMETRO. TEN YEARS AGO, WE COULD GO BACK AND FORTH TO AUSTIN ALL DAY. NOW, IF YOU WANT TO GET TO AUSTIN ON THE BUS, YOU GO IN THE MORNING AND YOU STAY THERE ALL DAY AND COME BACK. WHY DON'T THE BUSSES GO TO THE POLL SITES? THAT'S BASICALLY A POLL TAX BY NOT RUNNING THEIR. NOW. YEAH. 50S 50S. THANK YOU. OKAY. MAYNARD. MAYNARD GROCERY STORE I SENT YOU GUYS PICTURES OF THAT. I ALSO FIND A CODE A CODE VIOLATION IN THERE. NOW WE HAVE ANOTHER PROBLEM ABOUT THESE CODE VIOLATIONS AND THE COURTS AND ALL THAT, BECAUSE THE CITY ATTORNEYS ARE THE PROSECUTORS. SO IF IT'S A CASE WHERE A CITY EMPLOYEE IS AT FAULT, THE CITY ATTORNEYS WILL NEVER BRING IT BEFORE THE COURT. SO IN MY NEW COMPLAINTS, I'VE ASKED THAT THEY GET RECUSED. AND THE POLICE ALSO DID A FOLLOW UP TO GET MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE PUBLIC INFORMATION STUFF THAT'S BEEN GOING DOWN. AND BY THE WAY, WE HAVE A LOT OF NATIONAL COVERAGE ON THIS LAWSUIT, TOO. THANK YOU. THANK YOU SIR. SO TYPICALLY WE WOULD JUST MOVE STRAIGHT THROUGH. BUT WHEN THERE'S INFORMATION THAT'S MISREAD AND MISCOMMUNICATED I NEED TO CORRECT THAT. SO THOSE FACTS DON'T GO OUT INTO THE COMMUNITY INCORRECTLY. THE MAYNARD DOWNS PROJECT WAS NOT IN THE CITY LIMITS, AND WE ACTUALLY WORKED TO BRING THE PROJECT INTO THE CITY LIMITS BECAUSE THAT LAND WAS LOST. AND WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT THE HISTORIC, THE HISTORY AND THE CONNECTION OF THAT PROJECT WAS BACK IN THE MINOR. AND SO ONE, IT WASN'T IN THE CITY, AND WHICH MEANS IT DIDN'T HAVE TO FOLLOW CITY CODE TWO AND BECAUSE OF US WORKING WITH THEM, THEY'VE GIVEN LAND TO THE CITY SO THAT THE CITY CAN ACTUALLY CREATE AN ENTERTAINMENT VENUE BACK THERE TO IN HONOR OF WHAT MAYNARD DOWNS WAS. SO I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE TRUE AND FACTUAL INFORMATION. THERE'S OTHER THINGS WE'LL PUT OUT LATER TO CORRECT ANY OF THE MISINFORMATION THAT'S GOING OUT TONIGHT. NEXT UP WE HAVE MISS KRISTA. KRISTA. KRISTA. YES, MA'AM. YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES. HI. MY NAME IS KRISTA. SWEAR. I

[00:25:10]

HOWEVER, IT HAS BEEN SHOWN DURING CITY OF MAYNARD MEETINGS THAT ANY QUESTIONING OF THE PLANNING AND ZONING DEPARTMENT IS UNACCEPTABLE IN THE CITY. LAWYER AND ENGINEER WILL BULLY ELECTED OFFICIALS INTO COMPLYING WITH THEIR WISHES RATHER THAN ALLOW INDEPENDENT THOUGHT AND DECISION MAKING ABILITY. REVIEW THE OCTOBER PLANNING AND ZONING VIDEO AND YOU WILL SEE THE CITY ENGINEER ADMIT AROUND MINUTE 46 THAT THE LAWS MANOR ARE FOLLOWING ACTUALLY INCREASES WATER DOWNSTREAM. SHE STATED IT WATCH IT. IT'S ON YOUTUBE, BUT IT SEEMS THAT THE HOPE IS. MA'AM, THAT'S THE THREE MINUTES. I'M SORRY. ALL RIGHT, NEXT WE HAVE.

MR. IS THIS DEMETRIUS? LILY, IS THAT CORRECT? WHAT YOU THINK I SHOULD DO? SO GO AHEAD TO DO US.

SO I'M JUST UNFAMILIAR WITH THE PROCESS. OH, I CAN EXPLAIN. SO MY WIFE, I THOUGHT SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO SPEAK IN THE NOT SPEAK. I THINK SHE'S ON AGENDA ITEM NUMBER 11. YES. SO. BUT FOR BECAUSE SHE'S ON THE ITEM, WE ACTUALLY HAVE YOU DOWN UNDER PUBLIC COMMENTS. OH ON THIS ONE.

OKAY. SORRY. SO BUT YOU CAN SPEAK NOW. I CAN SPEAK NOW. OKAY. SORRY. YES. THANK YOU.

AND YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES OKAY. THANK YOU. JUST START WITH YOUR NAME. MY NAME IS DEMETRIUS LILY.

ONE. LET ME LET ME REMIND EVERYBODY THE DECORUM. OUR GUESTS ARE TALKING TO US. AND SO WE MAKE SURE THAT IT'S QUIET IN THE AREA. SO WE DON'T NEED TO COMMENTS OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. YES, SIR. I'M SORRY. GO AHEAD. OKAY, SO MY WIFE AND HER MOTHER AND I, WE JUST BOUGHT A HOUSE HERE. THEY WANTED TO MOVE HERE. SO I'M ALL ABOUT IT. BUT THERE SEEMS TO BE AN ORDINANCE THAT PROHIBITS HER FROM LIVING HERE. AND I MARRIED HER BECAUSE SHE'S A GOOD PERSON, AND WE

[00:30:01]

SHE SERVED TEN YEARS IN PRISON AND NOW FOLLOWS ALL THE RESPONSIBILITIES CONCERNING THAT MISTAKE. SHE HAS HELD DOWN A JOB AND BECAME AN UPSTANDING CITIZEN. SINCE SHE HAS BEEN RELEASED, SHE HAS PROVEN HERSELF. I ASK THAT YOU SHOW HER GRACE AND LET HER LIVE IN THE HOME THAT WE ALL PURCHASED TOGETHER. THANK YOU, THANK YOU. MELISSA BROOKS. GOOD EVENING.

MY NAME IS MELISSA BROOKS AND I AM STEPHANIE, LILY'S LITTLE SISTER. I DO UNDERSTAND HOW SERIOUS THIS MATTER IS, AND I APPRECIATE THE COUNCIL TAKING THE TIME TO HEAR ME TONIGHT. I JUST WANTED TO SHARE WHO MY SISTER IS. SHE'S A WONDERFUL PERSON WITH A HUGE HEART, AND GROWING UP, SHE ALWAYS PROTECTED ME AND MADE ME FEEL SAFE. WHEN STEPHANIE WAS 24, SHE MADE A TERRIBLE MISTAKE THAT SHE DEEPLY REGRETS. SHE TOOK RESPONSIBILITY AND SERVED NEARLY TEN YEARS IN PRISON AND THEN SLOWLY REBUILT HER ENTIRE LIFE. THAT WAS ALMOST 30 YEARS AGO. I BELIEVE A PERSON SHOULD NOT BE REDUCED FOREVER TO THE WORST THING THEY'VE EVER DONE.

A LIFE IS MORE THAN THAT, AND I'VE SEEN WHO MY SISTER HAS BECOME SINCE THEN. SHE'S LIVED WITH INTEGRITY. SHE'S HELD STEADY JOBS, PAID HER TAXES, AND LIVED QUIETLY. SHE'S NOT A DANGER TO ANYONE, AND SHE'S BEEN A SOURCE OF SAFETY IN MY LIFE SINCE I WAS A LITTLE GIRL.

THE HOME THAT SHE AND HER HUSBAND BOUGHT IN MAYNOR REPRESENTS YEARS OF SAVING AND TRYING TO BUILD A PEACEFUL AND STABLE LIFE. TAKING THAT AWAY WOULD BE DEVASTATING, NOT ONLY TO STEPHANIE, BUT ALSO TO OUR AGING MOTHER, WHO DEPENDS ON HER DAILY. OUR FAMILIES BEING SEPARATED TODAY NOT BECAUSE OF ANYTHING THAT SHE'S DOING NOW, BUT SOMETHING THAT HAPPENED NEARLY THREE DECADES AGO. I HOPE THAT YOU WILL CONSIDER HER LONG RECORD OF COMPLIANCE, HER COMPASSION, AND HER COMMITMENT TO LIVING RESPONSIBLY. I BELIEVE IN MY SISTER AND I BELIEVE IN REDEMPTION. I'M NOT ASKING FOR SYMPATHY. I'M ASKING FOR FAIRNESS AND HUMANITY AND THE CHANCE FOR HER TO CONTINUE LIVING WITH PEACE AND PURPOSE. THANK YOU FOR LISTENING, AND THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING OUR FAMILY WITH COMPASSION. THANK YOU. AND IS IT SHILOH? HELLO.

THANK YOU FOR LETTING US ALL SPEAK TO YOU TODAY ABOUT STEPHANIE. LILY. I THINK HER SISTER DID A PERFECT JOB OF EXPLAINING BASICALLY WHAT I WANTED TO SAY. STEPHANIE IS NOT RELATED TO ME BY BLOOD, BUT I CLAIM HER AS MY SISTER. I'VE KNOWN HER MY ENTIRE LIFE. I DO HAVE A DAUGHTER WHO'S 16 NOW, WHO I ALWAYS TRUSTED WITH STEPHANIE. SHE'S BEEN A HUGE PART OF OUR LIFE. I FIND STEPHANIE TO BE ONE OF THE MOST HONEST, DIRECT AND HARD WORKING PEOPLE THAT I'VE EVER KNOWN. AND WHAT I HOPE FOR HER IS THAT SHE CAN START TO ALLOW TO HAVE MORE HOPE FOR HERSELF AND NOT BE AGAIN HELD DOWN BY THIS DECISION FROM AGAIN 30 YEARS AGO, AND BE ABLE TO BE A PART OF YOUR COMMUNITY, WHICH SHE'S EXTREMELY WAS SO EXCITED TO BE A PART OF AND WORKED SO HARD FOR. MY MOTHER COULDN'T BE HERE. BUT ALSO, STEPHANIE WAS A

[00:35:05]

OKAY, COUNCIL, WE'RE GOING TO DO SOME JUMPING AROUND REAL FAST AND COME BACK TO THE PUBLIC HEARING. I'M GOING TO MOVE US TO ITEM NUMBER 11 CONSIDERATION DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION FOR VARIANCE REQUEST UNDER CITY CODE OF ORDINANCE CHAPTER EIGHT, ARTICLE 8.03 SEX OFFENDER RESIDENT RESIDENCY AND TAKE US INTO EXECUTIVE SESSION. AND THEN WE'LL COME BACK AND DEAL WITH AND DO ITEM 11. CITY COUNCIL WILL NOW CONVENE INTO

[EXECUTIVE SESSION (Part 1 of 2)]

[OPEN SESSION (Part 1 of 2)]

OKAY. OKAY. PUBLIC HEARINGS, CONDUCT A PUBLIC HEARING ON VOLUNTARY ANNEXATION OF 10.01

[PUBLIC HEARINGS]

AS WE NEGLECTED TO PROPERLY NOTIFY FOR THE FIRST PUBLIC HEARING. THIS IS THE PROPERTY KNOWN AS THE MAYNOR BUSINESS CENTER, JUST SOUTH OF 290 ON THE WEST SIDE OF BELTEX, OKAY.

COMMENTS? QUESTIONS? COMMENTS? COUNCIL MEMBERS, HAVE YOU RECEIVED ANYTHING FROM THE PUBLIC OR ANY COMMENTS FROM ANYONE? NO.

OKAY. AGAIN, QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS. ITEM NUMBER ONE. MAYOR COUNCIL, I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION THAT WE CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING ON ITEM NUMBER ONE, MOTION BY COUNCIL. ONE. WALLACE IS THERE A SECOND I SECOND SECOND BY COUNCILMAN. ANY QUESTIONS TO THE MOTION? BEING NONE. ALL IN FAVOR OPPOSED. MOTION PASSES. ITEM NUMBER TWO. PUBLIC HEARING.

CONDUCTING PUBLIC HEARING ON A SPECIFIC PERMIT. USE. EXCUSE ME. SPECIFIC. SPECIFIC USE PERMIT FOR ONE LOT ON 0.2376 ACRES. MORE OR LESS BEING TCAB. PARCEL 238889238888889, ALSO KNOWN AS 100 102 EAST PARSONS STREET, MAYNARD, TEXAS. MR. ROBERT. THANK YOU, MR. MAYOR. MY NAME

[00:40:10]

SOMEONE, YOU KNOW DROVE THROUGH THE FRONT WINDOW. I SENT YOU GUYS ALL THE PICTURES OF THIS.

YOU ACTUALLY LET THIS PROPERTY EXIST LIKE THAT. THAT TO ME SHOWS THE MEAGER. MAINER PRIDE DOESN'T EXIST WHEN YOU LET YOUR DOWNTOWN QUOTE. I'M SORRY, I DIDN'T MEAN TO USE THE WORD DOWNTOWN. IT'S NOT A DOWNTOWN ANYTHING. IT'S A LITTLE NEIGHBORHOOD STREET. THESE PEOPLE HAVE BEEN HORRIBLE STEWARDS. NO, WE'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE 18 WHEELERS AND, YOU KNOW, SIX GAS PUMPS THERE. AND NO, WE DON'T WANT TO GIVE THEM THE ALLEY SO THEY CAN HAVE THAT FOR AN EGRESS. NOW YOU GUYS HAVE STOOD UP AND TOLD THEM TO, YOU KNOW, POSTPONE OR HALT THIS SO FAR. THEY KEEP COMING BACK WITH SOME NEW PLAN. WE DO NOT WANT THIS TO BE LIGHT COMMERCIAL. WE DON'T WANT THE GAS PUMPS THERE. THEY'VE SHOWN BAD FAITH THROUGHOUT THIS ENTIRE PROCESS. I DON'T THINK THEY HAVE EVEN GIVEN THE CORRECT ADDRESS TO YOU GUYS.

WHEN PEOPLE DO AN APPLICATION THEY NEED TO GET, THE OWNER NEEDS TO TELL YOU THEIR ADDRESS, AND THEY ALSO SHOULD HAVE A LETTER THAT AUTHORIZES THE DESIGNER TO ACT ON THEIR BEHALF.

TRAVIS. THEY GAVE HIM THE WRONG ADDRESS TWICE AND NOW THEY HAVE A P.O. BOX. I GOT A LETTER, CAME BACK. I'VE GOT IT HERE IF YOU WANT TO LOOK AT IT. SO THEY'RE BAD STEWARDS. IT'S A BAD PLAN. AND ONCE AGAIN, SOMETIMES YOU DO GOOD THINGS. I KNOW IT SEEMS LIKE I'M MR. COMPLAINER ALL THE TIME, BUT REALLY, I DON'T. WE? I DON'T HAVE TO LIKE YOU 100%. AND WHEN I SAY THAT, I'M TALKING ABOUT YOUR DECISIONS, NOT PERSONAL. I STILL LIKE YOU GUYS. I JUST LIKE TO, YOU KNOW, POKE YOU OCCASIONALLY AS WELL. BUT ANYWAY, THIS. I'M SORRY. THAT'S YOUR TIME. THANK YOU. MR. MAYOR. COUNCIL, THIS ITEM IS FOR THE MAYOR OF GROCERY SPECIFIC USE PERMIT. THE PUBLIC HEARING WAS LEFT OPEN AFTER THE LAST MEETING PER REQUEST, TO ALLOW FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION TO BE GATHERED. UNFORTUNATELY, THE APPLICANT'S REPRESENTATIVE IS UNABLE TO BE HERE THIS EVENING. THERE WAS A MATTER THAT THEY HAD TO TAKE CARE OF PERSONALLY.

HOWEVER, THEY DID PROVIDE THESE HANDOUTS THAT ARE IN FRONT OF YOU WITH ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AND NUMBERS FOR YOUR REVIEW. I CAN TRY MY BEST TO ANSWER QUESTIONS OR INQUIRIES RELATED TO IT OR THE ITEM.

ANY QUESTIONS? COUNCIL MEMBERS HAVE ONE. HAVE YOU HEARD OF ANY OTHER COMMENTS FROM ANYONE ELSE, OR SPECIFICALLY THE ONES THAT YOU HAD TO SEND NOTICES TO? NOT SINCE THE INITIAL MEETINGS. MY OTHER QUESTION IS ON THE SIDE, AS OPPOSED TO WHAT WAS A GREEN SPACE. IS THAT WHERE THE SAFETY STATIONS PLAN? PARDON ME AS I IS THAT THE LAST PAGE OR SECOND TO LAST PAGE? LAST PAGE? THAT IS A GREAT QUESTION. THIS IS JUST THE SPECIFIC USE PERMIT.

SO IN TERMS OF ACTUAL PLACEMENT OF PUMPS AND OR EV CHARGERS, I CAN'T SPEAK EXACTLY TO WHAT THE DESIGN PROFESSIONAL WILL SUBMIT. BUT WE CAN CERTAINLY HAVE THAT CONVERSATION AS THESE THINGS PROGRESS IF THAT IS DESIRABLE. OKAY. SO THOSE ARE TWO DIFFERENT. THAT'S NOT TWO DIFFERENT SPECIFIC USES OR THAT'S A COMBINED SPECIFIC USE. LIKE I GUESS YOU'RE STILL LIKE A GAS STATION VERSUS AN EV CHARGER. YEAH, IT'S STILL A FUEL STATION OF SORTS. SO FUEL EV AND FUEL PETROLEUM STILL GAS. THEY DON'T HAVE TO HAVE TWO SEPARATE. THEY DON'T HAVE TO

[00:45:06]

HAS TEX DOT MADE A DECISION ON THE ENTRANCE FROM LEXINGTON YET? I HAVE NOT BEEN MADE AWARE OF ANY DETERMINATIONS THEY'VE MADE. I DON'T KNOW IF AN ACTUAL APPLICATION HAS BEEN SUBMITTED AS THE APPLICANT. THAT'S SOMETHING THEY HAVE TO DO SEPARATELY FROM US. I DO KNOW THAT TEX DOT WAS OPEN TO THE CONVERSATION OF HAVING THAT ENTRANCE THERE, BUT AS TO WHERE IT STANDS CURRENTLY, I'M JUST I'M NOT AWARE I HAVEN'T BEEN MADE AWARE. COUNCIL MEMBER, WHERE WE DID GET A RESPONSE BACK FROM TEX DOT, INDICATING THAT OUR WRITING AND WRITE OUT OF LEXINGTON WOULD BE GRANTED. OTHER QUESTIONS. COUNCIL MEMBERS. SO MOVING FROM DB TO C1 AS THAT REDUCES THE REQUIREMENTS FOR YOU KNOW, THE DESIGN CAN STAFF TALK ABOUT, YOU KNOW, WHAT WE CAN DO TO PUT IN PLACE TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY KEEP THAT FACADE? THE CHARACTERISTIC OF THE LITTLE DOWNTOWN. YES. SO IT IS IN THE RECOMMENDATION, ONCE WE GET TO THE REGULAR ITEM THAT STAFF RECOMMENDS, THE STIPULATIONS THAT UPON APPROVAL, THERE WOULD HAVE TO BE A LIMITATION TO THE SUP ONLY BEING VALID FOR THE CURRENT OWNER TO PREVENT, YOU KNOW, GETTING THESE ENTITLEMENTS AND THEN OWNERSHIP BEING TRANSFERRED AND WHATEVER PROMISES BEING MADE BEING POINTLESS. ADDITIONALLY, THERE'S THE REQUIREMENT THAT UPON APPROVAL OF THE COUNCIL, THERE'S A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT PUT IN PLACE THAT INDICATES AND IS ALSO BROUGHT BACK FOR YOUR REVIEW AND APPROVAL, WHAT IMPROVEMENTS WILL BE MADE, AS WELL AS THINGS LIKE MASONRY REQUIREMENTS FOR SIDES? IN GENERAL, MOST OF OUR STANDARD DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENTS REQUIRE THAT INCREASED MASONRY, AND WE CAN TALK ABOUT ESTHETIC DESIGN AS WELL WITHIN THE DOCUMENT. AND THEN LASTLY, IT WOULD BE A STIPULATION OF A TWO YEAR TIME PERIOD TO HAVE ESSENTIALLY ALL THESE THINGS COMPLETED AND CONSTRUCTION TO COMMENCE. THAT WAY THEY DON'T, YOU KNOW, GET IT AND THEN SIT ON IT. BUT THAT IS WITHIN THE REGULAR ITEM. BUT THOSE ARE THINGS THAT WE CAN DO. AND IF THERE'S ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS OR THINGS THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE WITH THE ITEM, WE'RE ALWAYS OPEN TO SUGGESTIONS. WITH THIS BEING IN OUR. MASTER PLAN. WAS THIS BEING OUR MASTER PLAN? SOME OF THESE THINGS IN REGARDS TO THE CULTURE OF WHAT NEEDS TO BE PRESERVED AND ALL THAT KIND OF STUFF IS ALREADY COVERED IN THAT. CORRECT. IT PERTAINING TO LIKE THE STANDARDS THAT THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT, THE OR LIKE THE ACTUAL COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND WHAT IT ENTAILS FOR THIS SPECIFIC THE DOWNTOWN MASTER PLAN THAT WE DID AND CREATED WITH THE TOURIST OVERLAY. SO I BELIEVE I BELIEVE THAT DOES NOT HAVE IT SOME SOME EXPECTATIONS ON ESTHETICS AND ARCHITECTURE. YES, IT DOES. AND WE WOULD IMPLEMENT THAT THROUGH THINGS SUCH AS THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT TO ENSURE THAT THOSE STANDARDS ARE FOLLOWED. OKAY. SO IT'S NOT ALREADY REQUIRED FOR THE AREA OR HAS IT BEEN AMENDED INTO THE CODE YET? IT HASN'T BEEN COMPLETED YET. OKAY. I THINK COUNCIL MEMBER HILL KIND OF ASKED ABOUT THIS. SO THE NEIGHBORS LIKE RELAX IN AND DO IT'S THEY HAVEN'T RESPONDED AT ALL. THEY WERE NOTIFIED BECAUSE THEY'RE WITHIN THAT SPACE. BUT WE HAVEN'T WE HAVEN'T RECEIVED ANY PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE PERTAINING TO THE ACTUAL GAS STATION SPECIFIC USE PERMIT. I KNOW WE'VE HAD CONVERSATIONS ABOUT THE ACTUAL, YOU KNOW, AWNINGS AND THE POTENTIAL UPDATING OR RESTORATION OF THOSE THAT EXIST AND JUST GENERAL QUESTIONS ABOUT HOW IT WOULD WORK, SINCE THERE ARE DIFFERENT ELEVATIONS AND HOW THAT WOULD WORK, BUT NOTHING SPECIFICALLY PERTAINING TO THE GAS STATION. HOW WAS THE RESPONSE WITH THAT? COUNCIL? AND SPEAKING TO ALL THE BUSINESS OWNERS AND LOOKING AT THE EXISTING FACADES, WE KNOW WITH THE DOWNTOWN, AND IF WE'VE BEEN TO OTHER OTHER TOWNS IN THE AREA, THAT'S ONE OF THE FACADE PROGRAMS THAT MOST TOWNS DO TO TRY TO GET UNIFORMITY. UNIFORMITY. AND SO THAT WAS ONE OF THE THINGS EVERY OWNER WAS IN AGREEMENT TO SEE THEIR AWNINGS BE CONSISTENT. AND THAT WOULD BE ONE OF THE THINGS WE WOULD ACCOMPLISH WITH THIS IS HAVE CONSISTENCY ACROSS THOSE SIX BUILDINGS. THANK YOU. I THINK ALSO MY CONCERN WOULD BE THE SIDEWALK IN THAT AREA, HAVING SOME WORK DONE ON IT AS WELL. SO WITH ANY SITE PLAN THAT'S SUBMITTED TO THE CITY

[00:50:01]

YES. IS THE ALLEY A ONE WAY OR A TWO WAY? IT'S USED AS A TWO WAY, BUT WHAT THE ACTUAL STIPULATION OF IT IS, I COULDN'T TELL YOU. ON THAT GRAPHIC. IT SHOWS ONE WAY THE GRAPHIC SHOWS TRAFFIC FLOWING ONE WAY ON ONE PAGE AND THEN THE OTHER WAY ON ANOTHER. SO I YEAH, AND THEN IT HAS, BUT IT HAS IN AND OUTS ON THAT ONE WAY AS WELL. SO. THAT MIGHT NEED TO BE CONSIDERED BECAUSE YOU'RE GOING TO, YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE PEOPLE TRYING TO TURN IN AND TURN OUT. AND THEN YOU'RE RIGHT THERE AT THAT CORNER. AND IS THAT A RIGHT TURN ONLY? WELL, TECHNICALLY IT'S A ONE WAY. SO YOU CAN'T TURN OUT. SO I JUST SEEMS LIKE YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE PEOPLE BACKING UP RIGHT THERE AND A CLOSED CORNER POTENTIALLY. THEY CAN ONLY TURN LEFT. AND YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE A LINE WAITING TO COME OUT, A LINE TRYING TO. AND THEN PEOPLE TRYING TO TURN IN AND YOU'LL HAVE UP HERE THESE RIGHTS RIGHT IN ONLY RIGHT IN RIGHT. AND AND THAT'S GOING TO BE CLOSE IN THAT PUMP. IT'S GOING TO GET BACKED UP PRETTY QUICK. SINCE THERE'S ONLY TWO CARS, TWO CAR PUMPS. AND THAT'S BEEN ONE OF THE MAIN CONCERNS OF PNC WAS THAT, YOU KNOW, EGRESS AND ALL OF THAT. YEAH. I DID I WANTED TO SHOW YOU SOMETHING ON PINTEREST, A LITTLE BIT OF A DISCREPANCY RIGHT HERE. EXACTLY. AND THAT'S IN TWO DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS. YES. OKAY, OKAY. OTHER QUESTIONS. COUNCIL MEMBERS.

I JUST WANT TO MAKE YOU AWARE. NO, I'M SORRY I WAS THERE IS ACTUALLY ONE. I THOUGHT THERE WAS ONE EXTRA ONE. I'M SORRY THERE WAS A PUBLIC HEARING, BUT. YEAH, I'M JUST TALKING ON NUMBER THREE. OKAY. I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE. THANK YOU. OKAY. YEAH. AGAIN. MY NAME IS ROBERT BATTLE. THIS IS AN INTERESTING SITUATION WITH WATER RUNOFF. WATER RUNOFF IS CAUSED BY IMPERMEABLE SURFACES. IT'S CAUSED BY ALL THESE DEVELOPERS PUTTING CONCRETE EVERYWHERE. I'VE BEEN TO MISS SQUIRE'S PLACE, AND I'VE SEEN IT UNDER, LIKE, 3 OR 4IN OF WATER ALL AROUND. NOW, I CAN APPRECIATE THAT SOMETIMES THE MAPS TALKING ABOUT FLOOD AREAS AND FEMA PLANS AND ALL THAT CAN BE PROBLEMATIC. BUT BASICALLY I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THAT THIS ASSESSMENT SHOULD BE RAISED AND THEY SHOULD PUT IN AN OLD STYLE STONE RETENTION WALL, MAYBE 2FT TO 4FT TALL. THAT PROTECTS HER PROPERTY. AND THIS GETS BACK TO ANOTHER THING WHERE FOR SOME UNKNOWN REASON, EVERY CITIZEN IN MAINE IS CHARGED, WHAT, $7 A MONTH NOW FOR WATER RUNOFF MITIGATION? I DIDN'T ADD ANY CONCRETE. HOW COME I HAVE TO PAY FOR SOME DEVELOPER OVER

[00:55:04]

I WAS KIND OF HOPING ANTHONY DENNIS WAS GOING TO BE HERE TO AT THIS THIS ONE TO. I DO KNOW THAT HE'S GOT SOMEONE TO SPEAK, AND I THINK HE'S GOT MAYOR THERE TO SPEAK.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU. MOVING ON TO ITEM NUMBER NINE. CONSIDERATION, DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION ON A PROFESSIONAL SERVICE AGREEMENT WITH GOLDWELL GOLDWELL TECHNOLOGIES, INC. FOR PERMITTING, PLANNING AND CODE ENFORCEMENT SOFTWARE. YES, SIR.

MAYOR. COUNCIL. MY NAME IS MICHAEL BURRELL, DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DIRECTOR FOR THE CITY OF MANER. THE PURPOSE OF THIS PROFESSIONAL SERVICES CONTRACT IS TO GIVE THE DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DEPARTMENT A BETTER PERMITTING SOFTWARE TO USE ON OUR DAY TO DAY OPERATIONS.

CURRENTLY, WE HAVE MY GOVERNMENT ONLINE AND WE'VE RUN INTO CHALLENGES WITH USABILITY, CUSTOMER INTERFACE, MAKING CHANGES ON THE BACK END, THINGS OF THAT NATURE. AND AFTER MEETING WITH MULTIPLE DIFFERENT PERMITTING SOFTWARE PROVIDERS, GOLDWELL WAS THE ONE THAT STOOD OUT THE MOST TO US DUE TO THE SERVICES THEY PROVIDE FOR THE COST THAT IT'S PROVIDED AT, AND THEIR OVERALL WILLINGNESS TO ACCOMMODATE THE CITY AND OUR NEEDS. THERE IS A PRESENTATION THAT HAS BEEN PROVIDED FOR YOU THAT KIND OF DETAILS THE SERVICES THAT THEY HAVE, AND WE CAN CERTAINLY GO THROUGH THAT PAGE BY PAGE, AND THEN I CAN ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS FOR YOU THAT YOU MAY HAVE AFTER. I DON'T KNOW IF WE WANT TO GO THROUGH THE WHOLE PRESENTATION.

WHAT IS IT YOU ALL HAVE A SPECIFIC QUESTION ON OR WOULD LIKE TO SPEND TIME ON COUNCIL MEMBERS? I JUST HAD A QUESTION FOR THE TRAINING FOR STAFF. IF WE WERE TO GET THIS, WOULD IT BE LIVE OR ZOOM OR HOW WOULD THE TRAINING BE? IT WOULD BE VIRTUAL AND THERE'S SET HOURS INCLUDED WITH THE COST OF IMPLEMENTATION. IT WOULD BE OVER A ROUGHLY 6 TO 8 MONTH PERIOD, WHICH INCLUDES GATHERING THE DATA FROM OUR CURRENT PERMIT SOFTWARE, CREATING THE PLATFORM THAT US AND OUR CITIZENS WILL USE, AS WELL AS THE TRAINING ON HOW TO USE A SOFTWARE WHILE IT'S BEING IMPLEMENTED AND ROLLED OUT. THANK YOU. WHAT OTHER CITIES

[01:05:04]

RIGHT. AND SO THE KEY IS ENSURING, YOU KNOW, THIS MIGHT BE THE PERFECT SOLUTION, BUT IF IT'S NOT NOT GOING DOWN AT SOME, YOU KNOW, YEARS OF, OF SOFTWARE THAT HAS WORKED. AND SO JUST MAKING SURE IF THERE'S A WAY FOR FEEDBACK FOR RATING OR SOME WAY THAT YOU HAVE SOME TYPE OF INTERNAL MECHANISM THAT'S GOING TO SAY FOR ALL STAKEHOLDERS THAT ARE USING IT AND USERS THAT IT CAN WE GET THAT FEEDBACK. SO WE SAY, YOU KNOW, THIS IS NOT WORKING FOR THIS GROUP OR THAT GROUP OR WHATEVER. AND AND THE COMPANY HAS AN OPPORTUNITY TO TWEAK IT. AND IF IT CAN'T BE FIXED, THEN YOU KNOW SOMETHING ELSE. BUT JUST SO WE DON'T BE IN A LONG LINE OF YEARS OF DOWN THE ROAD WITH SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T WORK WHEN MEETING WITH THEM. THEY DID PROVIDE YELP ESQUE REVIEWS FROM DIFFERENT COMMUNITIES AND THEIR FEEDBACK ON IT. MAJORITY OF IT WAS POSITIVE, WITH, OF COURSE, THEIR NEGATIVE COMMENTS AND THINGS THAT THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO CORRECT AND MAKE INTERACTION. THEY DO HAVE FREQUENT UPDATES FOR THE PLATFORM. AFTER LISTENING TO, OF COURSE, COMMUNITY FEEDBACK AS WELL AS THE MUNICIPALITY THAT'S UTILIZING THEM. SO THERE IS OPPORTUNITY FOR THE COMMUNITY AS WELL AS STAFF TO COMMUNICATE ISSUES AND CHALLENGES WE HAVE. OKAY. AND KIND OF LIKE THE SAME QUESTION, BUT IS THIS COMPATIBLE WITH LIKE OUR FINANCIAL SOFTWARE OR GIS? YES, WE ACTUALLY ASKED THAT SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE OF THE AMOUNT OF ELECTRONIC PAYMENT WE RECEIVE. THEY WORK WITH THE MAJORITY OF ELECTRONIC PAYMENT SERVICE PROVIDERS. ADDITIONALLY, THEY SPECIFICALLY SPECIFIED THAT THEY INTEGRATE WITH ARCGIS. AND AS YOU'RE ALL AWARE, WE'VE RECENTLY GOTTEN THAT UNDERWAY. WE'RE GOING STRONG. WE'RE GETTING MAPS THAT ARE GOING TO BE USABLE FOR THE COMMUNITY AND UP ON A PUBLIC FACING PORTAL, HOPEFULLY VERY SOON. WE'RE LOOKING TOWARDS THE END OF THE YEAR, JUST WORKING OUT THE KINKS OF HOW TO PRESENT CERTAIN DATA. BECAUSE OF HOW WE CURRENTLY HAVE IT CONFIGURED. IT'S A LITTLE AWKWARD TO TRANSITION, BUT THEY DO SPECIFICALLY INTEGRATE WITH GIS SO THAT DATA CAN BE ACCESSIBLE ON THE PERMITTING PLATFORM.

THAT'S AWESOME. YEAH, I KNOW HOW BENEFICIAL GIS CAN, YOU KNOW, MAKE EVERYBODY'S LIFE A LOT EASIER. WE'LL WE'LL RESIDENTS BE ABLE TO TRACK THEIR PERMIT PROGRESS. YOU CAN DIRECTLY CONTACT PERMIT TECHNICIANS. YOU CAN COMMUNICATE WITHIN THE PROJECT.

ON THE STAFFING SIDE THERE'S COLLABORATIVE PLAN REVIEW, WHICH IS ONE THING THAT I WAS PLEASANTLY INFORMED ABOUT. IT WORKS, IN ESSENCE THE SAME WAY THAT BLUEBEAM DOES. BUT INSTEAD OF HAVING TO PAY FOR BLUEBEAM SEPARATELY, WHICH IS 10,000 A YEAR, IT'S BUILT INTO THE PROGRAM AND MULTIPLE PEOPLE CAN BE ON THE SAME PLAN SET AT ONCE. SO I THINK THAT'S WHY I WANTED TO MENTION THAT BECAUSE OF THE COST, I GET MORE. BUT THEN YOU GET SOMETHING THAT NOW WE WE CAN SAY, HERE'S A BETTER OUTCOME FOR US. SO WITH THIS PROGRAM IT'S 34,000, BUT WITH THAT COST IT WOULD REDUCE THE NEED FOR SOME OF THE OTHER PROGRAMS WE HAVE. THERE'S ALSO NO LIMITATION ON THE AMOUNT OF PERMITS THAT WE CAN PROCESS IN A YEAR WITH OUR CURRENT PLAN WITH MGO, ONCE YOU SURPASS 1000, IT'S $10 PER ADDITIONAL PERMIT. THEY DON'T HAVE A FREE I SAY

[01:10:01]

JUST TO SPECIFY 34,000 IS THE FEE. BUT THEN THERE'S THE ANNUAL UPLIFT FIVE, 5%. YEAH.

THAT THAT WON'T OCCUR FOR THE INITIAL 17 A YEAR, 1700 A YEAR. OTHER QUESTIONS? COUNCIL MEMBERS. AND WHILE THEY'RE THINKING KUDOS TO YOU ALL FOR THIS CONTINUAL JOURNEY OF MOVING US INTO THE WHAT IS THIS, THE 21ST AND 22ND CENTURY? YEAH, YEAH. CATCHING US UP AND FINDING SOFTWARE THAT'S THAT'S SPEAKING ACROSS ALL THE LANES. AND, YOU KNOW, AND PUTTING THE TEAM IN A BETTER SITUATION FOR THE WORK THAT THEY'RE DOING AND OUR AND OUR CUSTOMERS, YOU KNOW.

SO YES, SIR I HEARD YOU LOUD AND CLEAR WHEN YOU SAID WE NEED TO START BEING A BIT MORE EFFICIENT. SO. YEAH. WELL, AND I'M HOPING DID WE HAVE ANYONE FROM GOODWILL HERE? NO, SIR. NO.

OKAY. WELL, I MEAN, THE OTHER THING IS, YOU KNOW, I SAW THAT DATA EXTRACTION WAS IN EXCEL.

IS THAT OUT OF OUR SYSTEM OR OUT OF THEIR SYSTEM? WE GET THAT FROM OUR CURRENT PERMITTING SOFTWARE, MY GOVERNMENT ONLINE. AND THEN THEY TRANSITION THAT DATA INTO THE NEW PERMITTING SOFTWARE. THEY DO AID US WITH THAT THOUGH. THAT'S SOMETHING THAT THEY OFFER THAT MOST OTHER PERMITTING COMPANIES DIDN'T. TYPICALLY YOU'RE RESPONSIBLE FOR GETTING YOUR OWN DATA, BUT THEY'LL WORK WITH US TO TRY TO ACQUIRE THAT INFORMATION. OKAY.

WELL, BUT WE'LL DO THEY HAVE EXTRACTION OPPORTUNITIES IF WE WERE TO SWITCH FROM THEM. NO, NO, JUST IN GENERAL, IF WE WANT, WE'D LIKE TO PULL DATA. YES, SIR. YEAH. OKAY. THEY HAVE NUMEROUS REPORT OPTIONS. WE CAN PULL THINGS AND EXCEL FORM PDF. THEY IT'S A WIDE RANGE. THERE WAS A VERY LONG DEMO THAT WE WENT THROUGH AND WE MET MULTIPLE TIMES JUST TO ENSURE THAT DATA COULD BE PRESENTED ACCURATELY AND DIVERSELY. OKAY. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? COUNCIL MEMBERS. I'LL TAKE QUESTIONS OR MOTION. SO IT'S. IT'S A WEBSITE BUT IT'S MOBILE FRIENDLY. SO ONE OF THE MODULES THAT WILL BE TWO OF THEM ARE CODE ENFORCEMENT AS WELL AS INSPECTIONS. IT'S DESIGNED TO BE USER FRIENDLY ON MOBILE DEVICES. SO YOU WOULD STILL GO TO A WEBSITE, SO TO SPEAK, BUT IT WOULD FUNCTION IN ESSENCE LIKE AN APP. IT'S NOT LIKE YOU'RE GOING TO BE LOOKING AT THE SAME THING ON YOUR DESKTOP. DOES THE. IS THERE ANY COST TO THE END USER FOR ANY SERVICES OR LIKE ANY OTHER FEES OUTSIDE OF IT, JUST BEING YOUR REGULAR PERMIT FEES? AND WHEN YOU'RE SUBMITTING IT, JUST THE TECH FEE THAT'S BEEN IN EXISTENCE EVEN NOW, THAT'S THE ONLY THING THAT IT IS IN MOST. I THINK THE MAX TAX TECH FEE WE CHARGE WOULD BE $50, BUT YOU HAVE TO HAVE LIKE A MASSIVE PERMIT, LIKE CONSTRUCTION PLANS OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, WHICH IN CONTEXT, MOST CONSTRUCTION PLAN FEES EXCEED A FEW HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS. SO $50 ISN'T, I HOPE, TOO MUCH OF A STRAIN FOR THE APPLICANT. THEY DEFINITELY PAY ALL OF THAT BEFORE THEY RECEIVE ANY OF IT, RIGHT? TESTING AND INSPECTION FEES ARE GENERAL. PERMIT FEES WILL CHARGE BEFOREHAND. OKAY, BUT IT CAN BE ACCESSED 24 OVER SEVEN. THERE'S NO CAP TO WHEN YOU CAN LOG INTO THIS. CHECK YOUR PROGRESS. UPLOAD PLANS COMMUNICATE WITH PEOPLE. IT'S COMPLETELY ACCESSIBLE. OKAY. AND JUST TO I GUESS MAKE SURE.

WITH THE NEW TECHNOLOGY AND THE THE GREAT AI, IS THERE SOMEONE IS THERE A HUMAN BEHIND IT? THAT'S DURING REGULAR DURING REGULAR BUSINESS HOURS? YES. AND OF COURSE AS STAFF, WE STILL HAVE THE ABILITY TO GO IN AND SEE WHAT CONVERSATIONS ARE BEING HAD AND ASSISTS WHEN THE TIME COMES. THIS IS NOT MEANT TO REPLACE ANY HUMAN INTERACTION, IT'S SIMPLY TO AID THE COMMUNITY AND US WITH BEING A BIT MORE EFFICIENT WITH HOW WE SPEND OUR TIME, AND

[01:15:02]

NUMBER TEN CONSIDERATION. DISCUSSION. POSSIBLE ACTION ON REGARDING A CHANGE ORDER TO THE CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT FOR THE GREG MAYNARD ROAD GROUND STORAGE TANK AND PRESSURIZATION FACILITY IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT. YES, SIR. GOOD EVENING. MAYOR. COUNCIL. THE ITEM BEFORE YOU IS IS FOR A CHANGE. ORDER FOR THE CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT ON THE GREG MAYNARD GROUND STORAGE TANK. TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE BACKGROUND ON IT, WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON THIS SITE. THIS IS GOING TO BE OUR NEW GROUND STORAGE PRESSURIZED SYSTEM FOR OUR WATER SYSTEM. AND WE HAD SOME DELAYS ON THE ELECTRICAL SIDE. THERE WERE GOING TO DO AN UNDERGROUND ELECTRICAL PAD.

THAT WAS GOING TO BE SEVERAL, PROBABLY MORE LIKE 6 OR 7 MONTHS OUT. SO WE WERE ABLE TO SHIFT AND ADJUST TO DO AN OVERHEAD ELECTRICAL. THE CONTRACTOR, WE'RE WORKING WITH THEM WITH THE DAYS, WELL, THIS IS GOING TO BE NO COST ASSOCIATED WITH THE CHANGE ORDER. THIS IS JUST GIVING THEM DAYS. WE'RE WORKING WITH THEM BECAUSE THEY TOOK THE MONEY OFF OF WHAT THEY WERE GOING TO. THEY HAD TO CONSUME AND MAKING A NEW ELECTRICAL PANEL TO, TO FIT A RETROFIT TO A AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF. AND THEY DID ALL THE THEY BASICALLY CONSUMED ALL OF THOSE COSTS SO THEY COULD HAVE THE DAYS. AND WE'RE HERE, WE'RE GOING TO GIVE THEM A WE'RE HOPING THAT WE CAN GIVE THEM THE 123 CALENDAR DAYS TO COMPLETE THIS PROJECT. WE'RE GETTING REALLY CLOSE, WHERE THERE'S A FEW OTHER LITTLE ITEMS OF BACKUP GENERATOR THAT WE GOT TO DO AND THEN DO AN INITIAL WALK THROUGH. AND WE'RE HOPING THAT WE'LL MAKE THIS NEW DEADLINE FOR THE FINAL. THEY DID A LOT OF WORK ABOUT PROBABLY ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO, THREE WEEKS AGO, TO TRY TO GET IT TO BE CLOSE TO FUNCTIONING AS WE CAN. WE'RE STILL WAITING ON SOME SCADA PIECES THAT ARE GOING TO BE ABLE TO COMMUNICATE ELECTRONICALLY WITH OUR COMPUTER, AND WE CAN SEE THE GAUGES AND STUFF, BUT WE'RE WE'RE GETTING REALLY CLOSE. I'M GETTING REALLY EXCITED. I WISH IT WAS ON TODAY, BUT GOOD. HOPEFULLY ANOTHER COUPLE OF WEEKS. WELL, THIS INCREASED WATER PRESSURE IN THAT AREA. YES, MA'AM. AND WITH THE PROJECT THAT WE'RE DOING ON 973, HOPEFULLY WITH THIS NEW BOOSTER STATION, I KNOW WE'RE IN HERE PRETTY SOON. HOPEFULLY I'LL GET ANOTHER BID OR BID APPROVAL FOR Y'ALL ON GREG LANE, WHICH IS GOING TO BE ANOTHER BOOSTER STATION THAT WILL HELP THE OTHER SIDE OF TOWN. BUT WE'RE ALSO DOING A WATER LINE PROJECT RIGHT NOW IN 973. SO ONCE THAT IS CONNECTED, WE CAN ACTUALLY USE THIS BOOSTER STATION, HOPEFULLY TO PUSH WATER TO THE OTHER SIDE TO BOOST PRESSURE THERE. OKAY, SO JUST TO MAKE IT CLEAR FOR THE COMMUNITY, CITY COUNCIL AND CITY STAFF IS DOING WHAT THEY CAN TO INCREASE WATER PRESSURE IN CERTAIN AREAS OF TOWN. YES, MA'AM. AND TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE'S CLEAR AND PROPER WATER FLOW. YES, MA'AM. THANK YOU. YEAH, MAYOR, COUNCIL, I WOULD ALSO SHARE WITH THE PUBLIC THAT THIS PARTICULAR PROJECT DID QUALIFY FOR FUNDING THAT WE GOT FROM CONGRESSMAN CASSAR'S OFFICE, AND IT WAS IDENTIFIED IN THAT LIST OF OTHER PROJECTS. SO AGAIN, IF WE'RE LOOKING FOR GRANT OPPORTUNITIES, WE ARE PURSUING GRANT OPPORTUNITIES AT EVERY CHANCE. AND AT TIMES YOU MAY GET ONE AND MAYBE TWO OR 3 OR 4 YEARS BEFORE YOU GET MORE MONEY. BUT AT LEAST WE AS WE GROW, WE HAVE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THOSE GRANT OPPORTUNITIES. SO WE WOULD CONTINUE TO DO THAT AT EVERY STEP, FROM PD TO PUBLIC WORKS TO ANY DEPARTMENT. SIDEWALKS. WORKING WITH TEXDOT, THERE'S SOMETHING WE CAN GET THROUGH THERE. THOSE AGENCIES, WE WILL APPLY. OKAY, I TAKE QUESTIONS OR A MOTION. MAYOR COUNCIL, I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE. CHANGE ORDER NUMBER ONE TO THE CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT FOR THE GREG MAYNARD ROAD GROUND STORAGE TANK AND PRESSURIZATION FACILITY IMPROVEMENTS WITH CC CARLTON INDUSTRIES LIMITED, WHICH WILL ADD AN ADDITIONAL OF 123 CALENDAR DAYS TO THE PROJECT COMPLETION DATE. MOTION BY COUNCIL MEMBER. IS THERE A SECOND I SECOND. SECOND BY COUNCILWOMAN WALLACE. ANY QUESTIONS TO THE MOTION BEING

[01:20:01]

DISCUSSION. POSSIBLE ACTION ON ORDINANCE ANNEXING 10.01 ACRES MORE OR LESS BEING LOCATED IN TRAVIS COUNTY, TEXAS AND ADJACENT CONTIGUOUS TO THE CITY LIMITS, PROVIDING FOR AN OPEN MEETING, MEETING, AND OTHER RELATED MATTERS. MAYOR. COUNCIL. MY NAME IS MICHAEL, DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DIRECTOR FOR THE CITY OF MAYNARD. THIS IS THE FIRST READING FOR THE ANNEXATION THAT WAS MENTIONED IN THE PUBLIC HEARING. I DO WANT TO ADD, JUST CONTEXTUALLY, WE'RE STILL HAVING CONVERSATIONS WITH THE PROPERTY OWNER ABOUT TAX IMPLICATION UPON COMPLETION OF ANNEXATION. SO IF THE FIRST READING IS APPROVED, THEY'LL JUST BE DELAYING THE SECOND READING UNTIL THEY'RE READY TO PROCEED AND COMPLETE THE PROCESS. QUESTIONS? COUNCIL MEMBERS. NO QUESTIONS, JUST A REQUEST. YES, SIR. FOR FOR MOVE FORWARD LIKE FOR THE ANNEXATION THAT YOU CAN JUST DROP IN THAT IMAGE. I'M SORRY DROP IN THE IMAGE. SO IT JUST IT CAN BE SEEN. YES, SIR. NO QUESTIONS. I'LL TAKE A MOTION. MAYOR, COUNCIL. I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION THAT WE APPROVE THE FIRST READING OF AN ORDINANCE ANNEXING 10.01 ACRES, MORE OR LESS BEING LOCATED IN TRAVIS COUNTY, TEXAS, AND ADJACENT AND CONTIGUOUS TO THE CITY LIMITS.

MOTION BY COUNCILWOMAN. WAS THERE A SECOND? I SECOND, SECOND BY COUNCILMAN. ANY ANY QUESTIONS TO THE MOTION? NO QUESTIONS TO THE MOTION. ALL IN FAVOR OPPOSED. MOTION PASSES.

THAT'S MY SPOT. THERE WE GO. MOVING ON TO ITEM NUMBER 13. CONSIDERATION FIRST AND SECOND.

SECOND AND FINAL READING CONSIDERATION. DISCUSSION. POSSIBLE ACTION REGARDING AN ORDINANCE FOR ONE LOT 1.2376 ACRES, MORE OR LESS, AND BEING TCAB. PARCEL 238889, ALSO KNOWN AS ONE 100 AND 102 EAST PARSONS STREET, MANOR, TEXAS. FROM DBI DOWNTOWN BUSINESS TO C-1 LIGHT COMMERCIAL QUESTIONS. COUNCIL MEMBERS. AND YOU SAID THE THE TEAM FOR THIS ONE IS NOT HERE.

THAT IS CORRECT. THEY HAD AN URGENT MATTER THAT THEY HAD TO ATTEND TO SO THEY WEREN'T ABLE TO BE PRESENT TODAY. OKAY. MAYOR AND COUNCIL, SCOTT JONES, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR I HAVE A. IF I COULD ADDRESS COUNCIL ON A COUPLE ISSUES REGARDING THIS ITEM AND THE NEXT ITEM, NUMBER 13. I'VE BEEN INVOLVED WITH THIS PROJECT FOR PROBABLY THREE, THREE YEARS NOW AND HAVE COME TO THE REALIZATION THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF THINGS, AND WE'VE DONE A DOWNTOWN STUDY AND LOOKED AT THINGS, TRYING TO MOTIVATE DOWNTOWN, TRYING TO DO THINGS TO MAKE SURE THAT OUR DOWNTOWN PROGRESSES FORWARD. AND THIS PROJECT IS ONE OF THOSE CORNERSTONE PROJECTS THAT PROBABLY CAN GET THINGS MOVING FORWARD. IN EVERY PROJECT THAT I'VE COME ACROSS, THERE'S A TRADE OFF. A LOT OF TIMES YOU HAVE TO GIVE SOMETHING UP TO GET SOMETHING. IN THIS CASE, THIS PROJECT WOULD REMOVE AN EYESORE THAT WE HAVE DOWNTOWN EXIST TODAY. IT'S BEEN THERE FOR A LONG TIME. IT'S NOT A GOOD LOOKING BUILDING AS IT IS RIGHT NOW. THE OWNER'S CONVENIENCE STORE NEEDS THE GAS, AND THAT'S BEEN A POINT OF CONTENTION. BUT THEY NEED THAT GAS TO MAKE THAT CONVENIENCE STORE WORK. IT'S JUST A IT'S JUST THE WAY THEIR BUSINESS RUNS. THE IT'S A POSITIVE FORWARD MOTION FOR DOWNTOWN TO GET THAT THAT BUSINESS UP AND RUNNING. IT'LL DO A NUMBER OF THINGS FOR THE FOR THE CITY.

IT'LL BE A CATALYST TO MOVE US FORWARD DOWNTOWN AND FURTHER RENOVATE OTHER BUILDINGS. AND IT WILL HELP REDEVELOP OTHER DOWNTOWN PROPERTIES. IT HAS PROPERTY VALUE. IT'LL THEY'RE GOING TO PUT HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS INTO THAT BUILDING, AND IT WILL ADD PROPERTY VALUE AND HOPEFULLY GET THE OTHER PROPERTIES ON THAT BLOCK TO TO DO THE SAME.

[01:25:02]

WE DON'T HAVE THAT MOVEMENT. WE DON'T HAVE THAT ACTIVITY AND SOMETHING THAT THE DOWNTOWN PLANNERS SAID. WE NEED TO HAVE THAT MOVEMENT. WE NEED TO HAVE THAT WALKABLE ACTIVITY DOWNTOWN.

THIS WILL BE A START FOR THAT. SO YOU NEED THAT VIBRANT DOWNTOWN ACTIVITY. AND THIS IS KIND OF THE FIRST STEP FOR THAT IS WHAT I SEE. SO WE CAN DO SOMETHING WITH THAT BUILDING.

THIS IS OUR CHANCE TO DO IT. OR WE CAN LET IT SIT THERE AND IT MAY SIT THERE ANOTHER FIVE YEARS OR WHO KNOWS, ANOTHER TEN YEARS. AND WE CAN JUST SIT THERE AND DRIVE BY IT EVERY DAY AND LOOK AT IT. BUT I THINK THIS IS THE TIME THAT WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY. AND IF YOU ALL ACT AND WE CAN SEE SOMETHING GOOD HAPPEN DOWNTOWN. BUT THOSE ARE MY COMMENTS. THANK YOU.

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE OTHER? IMAGES WHERE THEY HAD, I THINK, OUTSIDE DINING AND SOME OTHER STUFF. THAT WAS THE OLD PRESENTATION. OH, PRESENTATION. THE ONE THAT WAS PROVIDED TODAY WAS AN UPDATED ONE THAT HE INTENDED ON SPEAKING OVER. YEAH, YEAH. BECAUSE I SAW ON THERE IT SAID OPTION ONE ON THE ON THE DOCUMENTS AND. I'M JUST CURIOUS AS TO WHY THEY, WHY THEY WENT FROM THERE ANYWAY. QUESTIONS. COUNCIL MEMBERS. CAN ANYONE SPEAK TO. MAKING IT ACCESSIBLE AND WHAT KIND OF FEATURES WILL BE IN THERE FOR OUR HANDICAPPED AND DISABLED CITIZENS. SO JUST FROM A GENERAL BUILDING CODE PERSPECTIVE, THERE ARE ADA COMPLIANT STANDARDS THAT ANY BUILDING THAT'S CONSTRUCTED HAS TO COMPLY WITH. SO NOTHING SPECIAL. IT'S JUST WE'RE JUST FOLLOWING REGULAR. IT'S STILL ON THERE, I SEE IT, IT'S JUST NOT ON THE OTHER DOCUMENT. YEAH, IT'S ON THIS ONE. JONES I FOUND IT. OH, YEAH. RIGHT DOWN HERE ON THE BACK. YEAH. IT'S ON, IT'S ON THE BACK. YEAH. SORRY, MICHAEL. I FEEL LIKE I MISSPOKE. DID I WAS THIS NOT A LOCATION THAT HAD EV STATIONS CHARGING STATIONS ON THERE AT ALL? THAT WASN'T THIS ONE. IT WAS JUST GAS STATIONS. THIS ONE WAS A GAS STATION. BUT THERE WAS THERE WAS A QUESTION ABOUT IT AND IT WAS CONTEMPLATED, BUT IT'S JUST NOT SHOWN ON THE CURRENT RENDERINGS. OKAY. SO.

EVS DON'T NECESSARILY. EVS HAVE NOT REQUIRED SPECIFIC USE PERMITS BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT FUEL PUMPS. THEY DON'T HAVE TANKS THAT GO UNDERGROUND IN SPECIFIC FIRE. WELL, THERE ARE SPECIFIC FIRE SAFETY STANDARDS. DON'T LET ME MISSPEAK THERE. BUT IT'S KIND OF A GRAY AREA IN OUR CODE BECAUSE THEY'RE SO NEW THAT WE HAVE TO KIND OF TAKE EACH APPLICATION AS IT COMES AND USE OUR DISCRETION TO MAKE SURE IT'S DONE PROPERLY. AND WE'VE HAD A FEW PEOPLE WITH THAT, JUST BECAUSE THERE'S CERTAIN FIRE REQUIREMENTS THAT HAVE TO BE MET, THERE'S DISTANCE AND SPACING AND HOW YOU'RE GOING TO RUN YOUR CONDUIT AND HOW CLOSE IT IS TO A TRANSFORMER AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE DON'T WANT TO GET TOO OFF TRACK. BUT ALL THAT TO SAY, EVS DON'T REQUIRE AN SUP, BUT THEY ARE ALLOWED AT GAS STATIONS. OKAY. AND I GUESS MY CONCERN WAS, WELL, I GUESS NOT UNTIL YOU SAID ABOUT CERTAIN AREAS AND MAKING SURE THAT IT HAD TO BE SO FAR AWAY FROM OTHER A DISTANCE BETWEEN MAYBE THE BUILDING OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, BECAUSE IT DOESN'T SEEM LIKE A BIG SPACE, BUT JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT IT CAN'T BE LIKE IT WOULDN'T BE RELOCATED TO BE INSIDE THE MAIN GAS STATION GROCERY AREA, BUT IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S ONLY LIMITED TO THAT SPACE THAT'S CLOSEST TO THE THE GRASS AREA. OR IT WOULD BE THERE RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE BUILDING, BECAUSE TYPICALLY YOUR EV CHARGERS GO ON PARKING SPACES, RIGHT? BECAUSE YOU CAN'T FILL UP WITH AN EV VEHICLE LIKE YOU WOULD AT A PUMP. YOU HAVE TO

[01:30:02]

THAT SEEMS LIKE A LEGAL THING THAT I'M NOT. I'LL SAY THIS, MICHAEL, I KNOW THE COUNCIL.

WE'VE BEEN LOOKING AT THE THREE LOTS BEHIND THE RELAX AND AS PUBLIC PARKING FOR DOWNTOWN.

AND IF THERE'S A GROWING DEMAND, WE CAN IDENTIFY THAT SPACE AWAY FROM THE BUILDINGS TO BE ABLE TO HAVE THAT SEPARATION. BECAUSE I THINK THAT'S WHAT I THINK ERIC DAVIS IS LOOKING AT DOING, TOO, FOR HIS BUILDING, IS TO TRY TO HAVE SOME OFFSITE. YEAH. STATION FOR EV. I WAS GOING TO MENTION SPECIFICALLY IF YOU WANTED IT TO BE CONTEMPLATED FOR THE GREEN SPACE AREA NEXT TO THIS LOT, IT WOULDN'T NECESSARILY BE TIED TO THE SUV BECAUSE THAT'S NOT ON THE PROPERTY. OKAY. SO PARKING SPACES ARE NOT PART OF THE PROCESS LIKE THAT. THE GREEN SPACE IS NEXT TO THE ALLEY AND IT'S ON THE OTHER SIDE AND THAT'S NOT THEIRS. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. BUT TO ALL THAT POINT, THIS IS JUST FOR THE ACTUAL ABILITY TO APPLY FOR A SITE PLAN. SO THE GENERAL LAYOUT AS PRESENTED IN THE SUP IS WHAT WOULD BE WORKED ON, LIKE THE DESIGN WOULD BE BASED OFF OF, BUT IT CAN TAKE DIFFERENT FORMS. I. BY ALL MEANS.

OTHER COMMENTS QUESTIONS, COUNCIL MEMBERS. I THINK THAT THE ONE STATEMENT THAT I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE IS THAT IT WAS ORIGINALLY A GAS STATION IN THE FIRST PLACE, AND THE ONLY REASON IT'S NOT IS BECAUSE THEY LET IT LAPSE. THEY LET THEIR THERE. THEY STAY CLOSE FOR MORE THAN A YEAR. RIGHT? SO THEY HAD TO COME BACK AND REAPPLY FOR THE SPECIAL USE PERMIT FOR IT TO BECOME A GAS STATION AGAIN. BUT IT ORIGINALLY WAS ONE IN THE FIRST PLACE. ME PERSONALLY, I WASN'T TOO KEEN ON HAVING IT THERE. BECAUSE OF THE TRAFFIC FLOW, BUT THE SIMPLE FACT IS IT WAS GAS STATION IN THE FIRST PLACE. SO YOU KNOW, HOW MUCH MORE DAMAGE WOULD IT DO FOR THEM TO HAVE TO PULL UP THE TANKS THAT ARE IN THE GROUND THERE? IF WE CHOSE TO NOT MAKE IT A GAS STATION, I THINK THEY GOT TO DO THAT ANYWAY. RIGHT? THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO MOVE THEM, RIGHT? YEAH. OR DO THEY ACTUALLY HAVE TO MOVE THEM BECAUSE THAT THAT IS AN IMPORTANT QUESTION. DO THEY ACTUALLY HAVE TO MOVE THE TANKS IN ORDER TO PLACE THE. TO REMOVE TO WITH THE CHANGE THE DIRECTION OF THE, THE PUMPS WITH THE RECONFIGURATION OF THE SITE AND JUST THE AGE OF THE INFRASTRUCTURE THAT'S IN THERE, THEY'LL LIKELY HAVE TO RIP IT ALL OUT REGARDLESS, UPDATE IT, BRING IT UP TO THE CURRENT STANDARDS AS OPPOSED TO WHATEVER IT WAS WHEN IT WAS INSTALLED, HOWEVER MANY YEARS AGO, SO THEY WILL STILL HAVE TO DIG THAT UP AND REDO THAT AREA, WHICH IS GOING TO COST, I MEAN, NOT COST, BUT CAUSE MORE OF A TRAFFIC ISSUE IN THAT AREA. JUST TALKING THIS OUT. OKAY. YEAH. NO PROBLEM. JUST WITH ANY CONSTRUCTION THAT GOES ON ON MAJOR RIGHT OF WAYS. THERE'S JUST UNAVOIDABLE TRAFFIC, POTENTIAL DETOURS, THINGS OF THAT NATURE. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. I'M STILL HAVING TROUBLE WITH THIS. WHAT'S WHAT'S OUR VOTE REQUIREMENT ON THIS? BECAUSE OF THE PNC SITUATION, THERE IS NO LONGER A REQUIREMENT OF A SUPERMAJORITY. JUST A MAJORITY VOTE IS

[01:35:02]

AND SO YOU'LL KNOW IN A COUPLE OF YEARS IF THAT STORE IS GOING TO WORK OR NOT. AND IF NOT, HE'LL SELL IT DOWNSTREAM. AND IF IF HE SELLS IT TO ANOTHER CONVENIENCE STORE OPERATOR, YOU'LL HAVE A CHANCE THEN, BECAUSE IT'S GOING TO BE TRANSFERRED, NOT TRANSFERABLE.

RIGHT? SO YOU'LL HAVE ANOTHER CHANCE TO TAKE A LOOK AT THAT OPERATOR WHEN THEY COME IN.

OKAY. I GUESS ANOTHER QUESTION WOULD BE DOES THE FACADE UPGRADE TO THE OTHER BUSINESSES DOWN THE WAY? ARE THEY CONTINGENT ON THIS ONE DOING WHAT THEY'RE DOING? I WOULD SAY THE THE FOR ALL THE AWNINGS TO FOLLOW SUIT. WE THOUGHT THE GROCERY WAS IN. THAT WOULD BE THE CATALYST TO START EVERYTHING TO BE CONSISTENT. AND THAT WAS THE GOAL IS TO TRY TO MAKE SURE THEY COULD GET THEIR AWNINGS TO IMPROVE WHAT THEY GOT. SO EVERYBODY TO THE EAST AND MAYBE SOME OTHER BUSINESSES LIKE THE THE BARBERSHOP OR OTHERS MAY WANT A SMALLER AWNING TO MATCH, SO THEY MAY DO SOMETHING ELSE IN SOME OF THE OTHER BUILDINGS IN DOWNTOWN TO BE ABLE TO MATCH THAT, EVEN THOUGH IT'S NOT INCONSISTENT STRIP OF BUSINESSES, THERE MAY BE SOME THINGS THAT ALLOW THEM TO WANT TO UPDATE THEIR THEIR AWNINGS AS WELL. WE PLAN TO TALK TO THE CONTRACTOR THAT THEY USED FOR THEIR FACADE FOR FOR THE OVERHANG THAT THEY WERE PLANNING, THE EAVES AND THE OVERHANG THAT THEY WERE PLANNING AND THE POST THAT THEY WERE USING. WE PLAN TO TALK TO THEM AND THE DESIGNS THAT THEY SET FORTH. WE PLAN TO GO TALK TO THE OTHER BUILDINGS. AND MR. MOORE HAD TALKED TO SOME OF THEM. WE PLAN TO GO TO TALK TO THE OTHER BUILDINGS AND SEE IF THEY WERE ALSO CONFORMED TO THE SAME RESTRICTIONS. AND WE HAVE SOME ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT MONEY IN THE BUDGET THAT WE COULD USE FOR A FACADE GRANT, FOR INSTANCE, THAT WE COULD, YOU KNOW, DO A 50 OVER 50 MATCH OR SOMETHING WITH THOSE OTHER BUILDINGS. IF THEY TAKE DOWN THOSE OLD FACADES AND WE DO A MATCH WITH THEM AND, YOU KNOW, GIVE THEM SPLIT, SPLIT THE COST 50 OVER 50, SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

SO, YOU KNOW, WE COULD WE COULD, YOU KNOW, PARTNERSHIP WITH THEM ON REPLACING THOSE. AND IT WOULDN'T COST AS MUCH FOR THE BUSINESSES. AND THEY COULD HAVE SOMETHING NICE LOOKING THAT WAS UNIFORM ALL ACROSS THE FRONT.

[01:40:16]

ONE OPPOSED. NO, NO. MY HANDS. OKAY. MOTION PASSES. 15. CONSIDERATION, DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION ON RECONSIDERATION OF THE MEDICAL OFFICE. SUB FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED NEAR THE. YES. THAT WASN'T UNANIMOUS. I ASK THAT Y'ALL SAY IT WAS. SO MOTION PASSES SIX ONE WITH MAYOR PRO TEM AGAINST. THANK YOU. CONSIDERATION, DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION ON RECONSIDERATION OF THE MEDICAL OFFICE SUB FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED NEAR THE EASTERN CORNER OF BOISE ART AND NORTH OF US HIGHWAY 290. ALSO REFERRED TO AS ONE THREE 400 EAST, US HIGHWAY 290 MANOR, TEXAS. YES, SIR. MAYOR. COUNCIL MICHAEL, DEVELOPMENT SERVICE DIRECTOR FOR THE CITY OF MANOR. THIS ITEM IS TO CONTEMPLATE THE RECONSIDERATION OF THE MEDICAL OFFICE SUB REQUEST. THAT WAS AT THE LAST COUNCIL MEETING. IN ORDER FOR IT TO BE RECONSIDERED, COUNCILWOMAN WEIR WOULD HAVE TO MAKE THAT RECOMMENDATION AS SHE WAS THE ONE WHO VOTED AGAINST IT. AT THE LAST MEETING. THE APPLICANT IS AVAILABLE FOR QUESTIONS EITHER NOW OR IF WE DO RECONSIDER ON THE NEXT ITEM. AND THEY'VE ALSO PROVIDED A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF INFORMATION PERTAINING TO THE MEDICAL NEEDS OF THE CITY, PER THE GAP ANALYSIS THAT'S IN FRONT OF YOU. OKAY. ONE SECOND. THIS WAS YEAH, THE 15 I WAS IN HERE. OKAY. IS THERE ANY QUESTIONS? I THINK EVERYTHING, IF I'M NOT CORRECT IS EVERYTHING'S IN THAT PACKET. RIGHT. IT'S IN THE PACKET. NO SIR. I RECEIVED THAT TODAY.
