ON BEHALF OF VITALITY, THANK YOU SO MUCH.

>> THANK YOU MR. O'ROURKE. >>> WITH THAT WE'LL GO TO ITEMS FROM COUNCIL.

[3. Items from Council:]

>>> I HAVE ONE ITEM. I KNOW THAT THE PARKS AND RECREATION IS WORKING ON THEIR POLICY ON THE COMMUNITY CENTER. I HAD A -- NOT A DISCUSSION -- BUT ANYWAY.

OUR LADY OF SORROWS DOES THE JAMAICA THE FIRST WEEK IN AUGUST EVERY YEAR.

WHEN I WENT TO GO PAY FOR THIS YEAR'S JAMAICA, I SAID CAN I GO AHEAD AND BOOK THE JAMAICA FOR NEXT YEAR? AND THEY SAID NO, MA'AM, YOU CAN'T.

AND I SAID WHY NOT, THEY SAID BECAUSE Y'ALL CANCELED IN 2017, WHICH IS FIVE YEARS AGO AND THEY SAID WE WERE GOING TO HAVE TO WAIT ANOTHER FIVE YEARS BEFORE WE COULD SCHEDULE LIKE TWO YEARS IN ADVANCE, LIKE THIS YEAR FOR NEXT YEAR UNTIL AFTER THE JAMAICA.

WHICH MEANS THAT SOMEBODY ELSE COULD COME IN AND TAKE THAT FIRST WEEK IN AUGUST THAT WE'VE HAD FOR YEARS AND YEARS AND YEARS. IT JUST SO HAPPENED IN 2017 WE HAD NEW ADMINISTRATION THAT DECIDED TO CHANGE IT AND NOT USE THE COMMUNITY CENTER.

IT WAS JUST A TEST, BUT WE'RE BEING PENALIZED FOR TEN YEARS. AND I DON'T THINK THAT IS FAIR.

AND I THINK THAT I KNOW THEY'RE WORKING ON THE POLICY. AND I THINK THAT SHOULD BE LOOKED AT REAL CAREFULLY, BECAUSE FIVE YEARS ALREADY AND THEN WE STILL HAVE TO WAIT FIVE MORE YEARS, I DON'T THINK THAT IS FAIR. THANK YOU.

>> ANYBODY, ITEMS FROM COUNCIL? I HAVE ONE, DEALS WITH THE CONTINUED JAYWALKING TO THE HEB HENRIIO GRAND. I WAS HOPEFUL THAT IT WOULD STOP ONCE WE SPENT THE MONEY AND

[00:10:06]

BUT PLEASE ASK, CHIEF IF YOU COULD, WHENEVER A POLICE OFFICER DRIVES BY THERE AND THEY SEE SOMEONE JAY WALKING, TICKET THEM, NO WARNING, JUST GIVE THEM A TICKET.

IT IS THE ONLY WAY IT IS GOING TO STOP IF JACK IN THE BOX ISN'T GOING TO PUT UP THE FENCE AND WE SPENT A MILLION DOLLAR FROM OUR BUDGET AS PART OF THE IMPROVEMENTS OVER THERE.

>> CAN I PAY YOU -- PIGGYBACK ON THAT? >> YES, SIR.

>> I WAS INFORMED THE FENCE WAS GOING UP AS SOON AS THE LIGHT WAS FINISHED.

>> THAT IS WHAT WE WERE TOLD. >>> I'VE ASKED SEVERAL TIMES OUGHT THE LIGHT.

THE LIGHT IS FINISHED, CORRECT? >> UH-HUH. >>> SO WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR

THE FENCE? >> THEY ARE. >>> WHO IS THE THEY?

>> JACK IN THE BOX. >> OKAY, I WAS INFORMED THAT AS SOON AS THE LIGHT WAS FINISHED

THAT THE FENCE WOULD GO UP. >> YEAH, WE'RE HAVING ISSUES WITH BLACK AND THE BOX MANAGEMENT TO PUT THE FENCE UP AND I WAS JUST TOLD WE'RE GOING MUNICIPAL COURT ROUTE TO REQUIRE

THEM TO PUT THE FENCE. >> GOOD MOVE. >>> THANK, IS THAT IT FROM

[4. Citizen Communication:]

>> GOOD EVENING, MAYOR COUNCIL. I WAS WATCHING THE BUDGET A FEW DAYS AGO, AND EVERYONE IS GET RAISES, BUT, CITY COUNCIL ISN'T GETTING ANY RAISES AND STUFF. AND YOU KNOW, IT IS HARD TO MAKE IT ON $3,000 A YEAR. AND THE CITY COUNSEL HAVE TO GET OTHER -- COUNCIL HAS TO GET OTHER JOBS TO MAKE ENDS MEET. I'M THINKING WHY COULDN'T THEY GET A $20 ONTIME APPEARANCE BONUS FOR EACH MEETING AND THE CITY MAYOR GET $25. AND A LOT OF TIMES PEOPLE ARE LATE BECAUSE THEY HAVE TO GET A SNACK OR SOMETHING TO EAT BEFORE THE MEETING AND STUFF.

AND I WAS THINKING, MAYBE SOMEONE COULD CATER SOME FOOD TO THE CITY COUNCIL, YOU KNOW AND YOU KNOW, GIVE THEM SOMETHING TO DO, BECAUSE THESE MEETINGS, SOMETIMES THEY GET AWFULLY BORING AND STUFF. SOMETIMES YOU JUST WANT TO TAKE A BREAK, OF COURSE, YOU CAN'T SAY THAT BECAUSE YOU'RE HIGHLY TRAINED PROFESSIONALS, YOU KNOW. AND I THINK THAT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA. WE'VE HAD THINGS WERE I'VE WORKED WHERE YOU GET $1 AN HOUR EXTRA IF YOU COME TO WORK ON TIME, I THINK THAT WOULD BE REASONABLE, A $20 BONUS FOR COMING TO WORK ON TIME AND THEN $25 FOR THE MAYOR, BECAUSE, YOU KNOW IT IS NOT LIKE THE MAYOR IS MAKING $100,000 A YEAR LIKE IN THE BIG CITIES THIS IS VICTORIA. A LOT OF PEOPLE DON'T KNOW.

THAT THEY THINK EVERYONE IS JUST ROLLING IN THE DOUGH ASK STUFF. AND THE FIRE DEPARTMENT AND MUNICIPAL COURT AND POLICE DEPARTMENT ARE ALL CERTIFIED IN PUTTING CAR SEATS IN TO DO IT PROPERLY, BUT I FIGURED OUT HOW TO DO IT BECAUSE MY SON TOLD ME HOW.

THAT IS THE WAY I FIGURED IT OUT, BUT THANKS AND HAVE A GOOD EVENING, APPRECIATE IT.

>> MS. LYNNETTE ZELLER. >> HI, COUNCIL, MAYOR. MY NAME IS LYNNETTE ZELLER.

I WANT TO APPEAL TO YOUR SENSE OF DECENCY, COMMON SENSE AND THE FACT THAT YOU ARE LEADERS IN OUR COMMUNITY WITH THE ABILITY TO STEER POLL SI SINCE THE BEGINNING OF TIME, THE FAMILY KOONIS ISING OF A MOTHER AND A FATHER HAS BEEN THE BASIC FOUNDATION OF SOCIETY.

AND CHILDREN RAISED IN THESE TRADITIONAL FAMILIES GENERALLY FLOURISH BEST.

THE FAMILY A MOTHER AND FATHER WAS THE FIRST INSTITUTION GOD CREATED.

WHEN THE FAMILY IS NOT DOING WELL THE NATION AS A WHOLE SUFFERS WHEN THE FAMILY UNIT IS ERODED THE NATION BEGINS TO CRUMBLE. WHY DO I SAY THIS? 1963 ON THE FLOORED OF THE I UNDERSTAND E UNITED STATES CONGRESS WAS ENTER FOOD INTO THE CONGRESSIONAL RECORD A SPEECH THAT LISTED 45 THINGS THE ENEMIES OF OUR NATION WANTED TO SEE ACCOMPLISHED IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE THE DESTRUCTION OF AMERICA.

NUMBER 24 WAS ELIMINATE THE LAWS GOVERNING OBSCENITY BY CALLING THEM CENSORSHIP AND VIOLATION OF FREE SPEECH AND STRESS. AND 25 WAS BREAK DOWN CULCHRAL STANDARD AND MOSHALLITY BY

[00:15:02]

IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT ONCE YOU HAVE A TRANSGENDER PATIENT, YOU HAVE A PATIENT FOR LIFE. IT IS BOTH EVIL AND LUCRATIVE. THOSE INVESTING IN THE MEDICAL INFRASTRUCTURE STAND TO GREATLY PROFIT OFF THE CONFUSION AND SUFFERING OF ITS VICTIMS. WHAT THE PERPETRATORS DON'T TELL YOU IS THAT THE SUICIDE RATE 10 YEARS DOWN THE ROAD IS OFF THE CHARTS FOR THESE PATIENTS OR THAT MANY OF THE SIDE EFFECTS OF HORMONE THERAPY OR IRREVERSIBLE OR THAT PUBERTY BLOCKERS CAN CAUSE EARLY ONSET OF OSTEOPOROSIS, GIVEN TO CONFUSED

CHILDREN. >> DAN YOU WRAP IT IN 10 SECOND. >> I DIDN'T REALIZE, I'M SO

ENGROSSED. >> IT IS OKAY. >>> LUPRON IS USED TO CHEMKAY CASTRATE SEX OFFENDERS, THE AMERICAN OF THE HEAD OF THE LIBRARY ASSOCIATION IS A VOWED MARXIST WITH AN AGENDA. OUR CHILDREN DESERVE BETTER AND WE CAN STOP THE INSIDIOUS INDOCK STRICKEN NATION WITH OUR LOCAL LIBRARY, PLEASE BY COURAGEOUS AND DO THE RIGHT THING.

THANK YOU. >> MS. POTEK. >> MR. OORKS CITY COUNCIL, THANK YOU FOR CARING ABOUT PROTECTING OUR CHILDREN WITH AGE AND CONTENT APPROPRIATE BOOKS PAID FOR WITH OTHER TAXPAYERS DOLLARS. IN A LET I RECEIVED THE WRITER TALKS ABOUT HOW THE FAMILY GROUNDS FLOOR ON WHICH EVERYTHING ELSE SITS IF ITS ENEMY UNDERMINES THIS BASIC UNIT OF SOCIETY, THE ENTIRE SUPER STRUCTURE CAN BE BROUGHT DOWN.

RIGHT NOW OUR PUBLIC LIBRARY HAS SEXUALLY EXPLICIT LOOK BOOKS AND GENDER IDENTITY CONTROL LOOKS THAT INAPPROPRIATE FOR MINE MINORS THESE WILL DRIVE A WEDGE BETWEEN PARENT AND CHILD AND UNDERMINES THE FAMILY UNIT. MOST PARENTS ARE COMPLETELY UNAWARE OR DON'T UNDERSTAND THE PROCESS IN WHICH IT IS BEING PUSHED BY THE TRANSGENDER AGENDA.

IN MY RESEARCH, I HAVE LEARNED ABOUT THE COGNITIVE STAGES OF DEVELOPMENT IN THE FORM ACTIVE YEARS. MOST CHILDREN BY THE AGE OF 3 CAN CORRECTLY SAY, THEY ARE A BOY OR A GIRL. IT IS NOT UNTIL AGE 5 THAT MOST CHILDREN UNDERSTAND THAT GIRLS BECOME WOMEN AND BOYS BECOME MEN. IT IS NOT UNTIL AGE 7 THAT KIDS UNDERSTAND THAT IF A MAN GETS DRESSED UP LIKE A WOMAN AND PUTS ON MAKEUP, HE IS STILL A MAN.

SO CHILDREN AGE 7 OR YOUNG MAY BELIEVE THAT DRAG QUEENS REALLY DO TURN INTO WOMEN.

THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT SEX IS PERMANENT. WHY? BECAUSE THEY'RE THINKING AND THEIR FEELINGS DEVELOP OVER TIME AS A RESULT OF LEARNING.

CHILDREN ARE IMPRESSIONIONABLE, WE NEED TO BE TEACHING THE TRUTH WITH GOOD BOOKS.

OUR LIBRARY INTRODUCES IDEAS ABOUT HUMAN SEXUALITY TO OUR INNOCENT CHILDREN.

DOES THAT MAKE SENSE? SOME OF THESE CHILDREN DON'T EVEN KNOW THE ALPHABET YET OR HOW TO CROSS THE STREET SAFELY. THEY ALSO HAVE NO NEED TO KNOW WHAT MOMMIES AND DADDIES DO AT NIGHT. SOME OF THE BOOKS TELL THEM IF YOU'RE A BOY AND FEEL LIKE A GIRL, THEN YOU CAN BE A GIRL OR VICE VERSE IS A. ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS TAKE HORMONE BLOCKERS AND CROSS-SEX HORMONES. NO ONE IS TELLING THEM THAT THEY

[00:20:03]

NO ONE IS TAKING THE TIME TO ASK THEM ABOUT THE TRAUMA THAT THEY MAY HAVE EXPERIENCED THAT CAUSED THIS SHIFT IN THEIR THINKING. WE HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY TO PROVIDE THE CHILDREN THE TRUTH, NOT LIES. INTRODUCING IDEOLOGY TO YOUNG AND VULNERABLE MINDS IS CALLED INDOCTRINATION. WE NEED TO REMOVE AGE AND CONTENT INAPPROPRIATE BOOKS FROM OUR PUBLIC LIBRARY. AND DEVELOP A CHILD'S COLLECTIVE COLLECTION POLICY THAT WILL KEEP THE BOOKS OUT. YOU ARE THE GATEKEEPERS, YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY AND THE RESPONSIBILITY TO PROTECT THE INNOCENCE OF CHILDREN WITH OUR TAXPAYERS DOLLAR, THANK YOU SO

MUCH. >> THANK YOU. >> AT THIS TIME WE'RE GOING TO

[1. An ordinance amending Chapter 15 of the Victoria City Code pertaining ...]

READING. >> AND FOR THIS ONE, I KNOW IT SAID SECOND AND THIRD IN THE

MEETING AGENDA, BUT THIS IS JUST GOING BE THE SECOND READING. >> OKAY.

ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FROM THE LAST MEETING? GOOD AFTERNOON, EVERYBODY.

>> GOOD AFTERNOON. >> ONE QUESTION I HAD, JUST TO FOLLOW UP ON A COMMENT I MADE THE LAST TIME, DEALT WITH THE VERSION BY THE REPAIR FACILITIES , HAD DISCUSSIONS WITH DIFFERENT FOLKS INCLUDING THE CITY ATTORNEY ABOUT, YOU KNOW WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE AND ONE OF THE THINGS WE TALKED ABOUT WAS LIEN OF COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE PD AND THESE METAL RECYCLERS IN TERMS OF HEY, HERE IS WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR WHEN WE'RE LOOKING FOR VERSION.

I WANTED TO KNOW, KIND OF GET YOUR THOUGHTS ON HOW CAN WE DO THAT?

WHAT DOES THAT LOOK LIKE? >> CHIEF ARREDONDO HAS A TRIP SCHEDULED THIS WEEK TO GO TO SAN MARCOS TO TALK TO A RESUBBINGLE FACILITATORF TO DETERMINE THEIR PROCESS AND THE ACTUAL INS AND

OUTS OF IT. >> BUT WHAT WE'VE DONE, THOUGH, IN THE ORIGINAL PATIENT 8 IT IT INCLUDED THE AUTOMOTIVE REPAIR FACILITIES BUT DIDN'T ADDRESS THE INDIVIDUAL SELLERS WHICH IS YOU HAVE IN FRONT OF YOU, THAT IS SECTION 2 ON PAGE 2. IT TALKS ABOUT THE PERSON ATTEMPTING TO SELL A CATALYTIC CONVERTER MUST REAPPLY AND MUST PRESENT TO THE METAL RECYCLING ENTITY, BASICALLY THE FACT THAT THEY HAVE SUPPORTING DOCUMENT 8 TO POSSESS A CATALYTIC CONVERTER. YEAR, MAKE, MODEL OF THE VEHICLE, FROM WHICH THE CONVERT WAS REMOVED THE COPY OF THE CERTIFICATE OF TITLE OR OTHER DOCUMENT 8 INDICATING THE PERSON ACTUALLY HAS OWNERSHIP INTEREST IN THE ACTUAL AT CATALYTIC CONVERTER THEIR TRYING TO REMOVE AND CASH IN. WE DID MAKE ONE ADDITIONAL AMEND IN 1662 IT PRETTY POINT-BLANK IT SAYS IT WOULD BE UNLAWFUL FOR ANY INDIVIDUAL OR ENTITY OTHER THAN A METAL RECYCLER TO POSSESS A USED CONVERT, CATALYTIC CONVERTER CUT FROM THE ORIGINAL VEHICLE UNDER THE SUBSUCCESSIONS SO THE ORDINANCE FOR THE METAL RECYCLER IS GOVERNED UNDER STATE LAW, STATE MAN DATE.

THE MAIN THING WE'RE LOOKING FOR HERE, AGAIN, IS TO GIVE A LITTLE BIT OF CREEDANCE AND A LITTLE BIT OF TOOL TO THE PATROL OFFICER THAT COMES ACROSS SOMEBODY THAT HAS A CUT CONVERT

THEY ARE IS BASICALLY SPELLED OUT ON 1662A. >>> THIS IS A MUCH BETTER VERSION. I APPRECIATE THE WORK ON IT. INCLUSION OF THE INDIVIDUAL AND IT WAS IMPORTANT BECAUSE IT TOOK IT BEYOND JUST THE RECYCLERS THEMSELVES.

I THINK THAT WAS A GOOD ADDITION. >> SO COUNCILMAN, TO GO BACK TO YOUR PREVIOUS QUESTION, W. CHIEF YOUNG AND I HAD A CONVERSATION ABOUT HOW DO THEY KNOW IF IT IS AN ESTABLISHED BUSINESS? AND WE NEED TO DISCUSS THE FACT THAT IT IS GOING BE UP TO THE OFFICERS AND THE BUSINESS TO BASICALLY WORK TOGETHER? DID THEY HAVE CERTIFICATE OF

[00:25:05]

THEM ASKING FOR THOSE THINGS. >> COMMUNE INDICATION IS A KEY COMPONENT, BECAUSE LEGITIMATE BUSINESSES WILL GET THAT COMMUNICATION AND YOU KNOW IF WE CAN DO THAT AND JUST SAY HERE IS THE EXPECT 8, I THINK THAT IS GREAT. IT WILL HELP A BUNCH.

>> THERE ARE OR DAY INSTANCE IN PLACE, HELPS WITH THAT PLUS, IF YOU LOOK AT THE OCCUPATION CODE, 43 PAGES LONG. SO THE HOOPS AND LOOPS THAT RECYCLERS GOING TO HAVE TO GO THROUGH IS CONTAINED IN 43 PAGES OF DOCUMENTS SO SIDEBAR, WE WERE ABLE TO APPREHEND THREE PEOPLE THIS PAST WEEK WITH SEVERAL CATALYTIC CONVERTER, ONE OF THE CITIZENS CALLED IN AND SAID THEY HAD INFORMATION ON WHAT THEY OBSERVED, THEY CALLED THE POLICE, WE WERE ABLE TO CATCH UP WITH THEM IN TIME AND MADE AN ARREST OF THREE INDIVIDUALS WITH A BUNCH OF CATALYTIC CONVERTER

SPRKS AND THEY WERE FROM HOUSTON. >> GOOD JOB WITH, THAT

APPRECIATE IT. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS. >> NO, SIR.

>> AT THIS TIME. >> I HAVE A QUESTION BEFORE WE START, AND IT IS REALLY A QUESTION FOR YOU, IT IS A POINT OF ORDER. I KNOW THAT WE'RE -- I DON'T DISAGREE WITH MAKING THIS BE THE SECOND READING, BUT FROM OUR EARLIER DISCUSSION, IS THAT SOMETHING THE MAYOR CAN DO UNILATERALLY OR DOES THE COUNCIL HAVE TO REACH AN AGREEMENT TO

BREAK INTO IT SECOND AND THIRD? >> IF IT IS WRITTEN SECOND AND THIRD READING WE WOULD HAVE TO DECIDE, I THINK. IF IT IS WRITTEN IN THIS ORDINANCE SECOND AND THIRD READING WE AS A COUNCIL WOULD HAVE TO DECIDE IF WE WANT TO GO TO THIRD READING.

>> I FELT LIKE WE SHOULD DO THAT BEFORE WE CALL THE PUBLIC HEARING SINCE WE WOULD BE HAVING A PUBLIC HEARING ACCORDING TO THE AGENDA ON THE SECOND AND THIRD READING, BUT WE WANT TO

SPLIT INTO IT SECOND. >> IN THE PAST WE HAVE VOTED ON THE SPLITTING OF THE SECOND AND

THIRD READING AS A COUNCIL SO WE COMPANY GO AHEAD AND DO THAT. >>> ALL RIGHT.

>> I DON'T DISAGREE WITH YOU, BUT. >> PROCEDURE IS GREAT, I LIKE

IT, THANK YOU. >> SO DO WE HAVE TO MAKE A MOTION TO GO AHEAD AND DO THAT?

>> SPLIT IT. >> I MAKE SUCH A MOTION. >>> I'LL SECOND IT.

>> MOTION AND A SECOND, ANY DISCUSSION? HEARING NONE, ALL THOSE IN FAVOR

SAY AYE. >> AYE. >>> THOSE OPPOSE, SAME SIGN.

THANK YOU MS. SCOTT FOR KEEPING IT STRAIGHT. >> YOU'RE WELCOME, IT WAS YOUR

ROLE, I'VE TAKEN IT OVER. >>> AT THIS TIME WE OPEN PUBLIC HEARING FOR ITEM C 1, ANYONE WISHING TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM, PLEASE STEP FORWARD SEEING NO ONE GET UP AND COME TO THE MICROPHONE, WE WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND ENTERTAIN ANY MOTIONS.

>> SO MOVE. >> SO YOU'RE MOVING TO ADOPT THE PASSED OUT VERSION AS THE SECOND

READING. >> AS THE SECOND READING. >> OKAY, THANK YOU.

>> MOTION AND A SECOND. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION ON IT? >> SOUNDS LIKE WE CAN'T PASS THIS FAST ENOUGH. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE, THOSE OPPOSE SAME SIGN.

[D. Consent Agenda:]

THANK YOU. >> CON17 AGENDA. >> ITEM C 1 IS THE ADOPTION OF MINUTES OF THE REGULAR MEETING OF JUNE 21ST, 2022, THE SPECIAL MEETING OF JUNE 27TH, 2022 AND SPECIAL MEETING ON JUNE 28TH, 2022. C 2 SAN ORDINANCE D 2 IS AN ORDINANCE APPROVING A BUDGET AMENDMENT TO FY 2022 BUDGET IN AMOUNT OF 112,FIVE 16.

[00:30:01]

NAVARRE JOE STREET. >>> MOTION AND SECOND, ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE.

[1. Approve a real estate sales contract for the sale of 1.620 acres on Ke...]

>> E 1 IS A RESOLUTION APPROVING A REAL ESTATE SALES ACCURATE FOR SALE OF 1.620 ACRES ON KERH

BOULEVARD FOR $210,000. >>> GOOD AFTERNOON, MAYOR AND COUNCIL, I DON'T HAVE ANY PRESENT BECAUSE BUT HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE.

WE INDUDESSED SOME INFORMATION IN THE ITEM THAT THIS IS THE 1.620 ACRES PURCHASED IN 2016 FOR POTENTIAL RELOCATION FIRE STATION 5. AND JUST DUE DILIGENCES.

IT IS A SITE WE NO LONGER NEED AND SO WE PER THAT ORIGINAL AGREEMENT OFFER THE PROPERTY BACK TO THE ORIGINAL OWNER AT AN APPRAISED VALUE OF $210,000 AND THEY'VE ACCEPTED.

>> ALL RIGHT. >> I MOVE WE ACCEPT ITEM E 1. >> SECOND.

>> MOTION AND SECOND TO APPROVE IT, IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION? ALL THOSE IN FARE SAY AYE.

[2. Approve a real estate sales contract for the purchase of 32 acres on N...]

>>> AYE. >> THOSE OPPOSE SAME SIGN. MOTION CARRIES.

ITEM E 2. >>> E 2 IS A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE REAL ESTATE SALES ACCURATE FOR THE PURCHASE OF 32 ACRES ON NORTH MAIN STREET FOR $750,000.

>> I DO HAVE A SHORT HOUR-LONG PRESENT 8. FOR THIS UPDATE, BECAUSE, YOU KNOW WE CAN'T GET OUT OF HERE BY 6. I'M JUST KIDDING.

SO YOU'VE SEEN MOST OF THESE SLIDES, BUT WE TYPICALLY HAVE GONE THROUGH THEM IN OUR MEETINGS OR QUARTERLY WORK WORKSHOP AT THE COMMUNITY CENTER AND THIS IS A BIG ACTION TOWARDS THIS PROJ JEACT. I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT TO REREVISIT SOME OF THESE SLIDES.

BUT REALLY BRIEFLY, A LOT OF THIS STEMS FROM OUR FACILITIES ARE INADEQUATE, UNSAFE, DECENTRALIZED AND DATED THIS IS SOMETHING THE CITY HAS PHONE FOR A WHILE.

TO CONDUCT A SPACEIO ANALYSIS, OF EXISTING NEEDS, THE NEEDS -- CURRENT STAFF, SPACIAL NEEDS FOR THE FUTURE AND DEVELOP THE PROGRAM SITE AT THE TIME. YOU CAN SEE BY THE PICTURE ON THE LEFT THAT THAT ORIGINAL BUILDING WAS PUT UP IN 1966, I THINK IT S WHAT IT SAYS.

AND I THINK THE LAST TIME I CHECKED BACK THEN WE HAD HOW MANY OFFICER? ANYONE REMEMBER THAT? POP QUIZ NEEDLES TO STAY, STAFF 50, RIGHT? 50. YOU'VE SEEN IT AND TAKEN OVER SPACE AT CITY HALL THAT CAUSED DEPARTMENTS TO LEASE CITY HALL, BUT ULTIMATELY THEY'RE STILL RUNNING OUT OF SPACE THIS IS JUST AN IMAGE SHOWING WHERE ALL THE PUBLIC SAFETY RELATED AREAS ARE WHERE THE FIRE MARSHAL IS, FIRE ADMINISTRATION, PD HAS A COUPLE OF PRESENCES THAT ARE HEADQUARTERS HERE ON SITE AT THIS CAMPUS BUT ALSO ON THE MALL. YOU CAN SEE WHERE FIRE DEPARTMENT HAS STORAGE AREAS 911 COMMUNICATIONS AND WHERE THE SHOOTING RANGE IS.

NONETHELESS IT GIVES YOU A SENSE OF HOW SPREAD OUT THESE OPERATIONS ARE AND GIVES YOU A SENSE OF COMBINING THREE OR FOUR OF THESE WOULD PROVIDE GOOD SYNERGY AND EFFICIENCY.

BACK IN 2018 THEY DID OPERATE BRINGING A LOT OF THOSE DIFFERENT AREAS INTO ONE CAMPUS.

THEY PROPOSE A FOUR BUILDING CAMPUS HERE ON THE RIGHT-HAND SIDE THAT INCLUDED AN INDOOR GUN RANGE, A TRAINING BUILDING, THE HEADQUARTERS AND BUILDING SPACE IN ORDER TO FACILITATE THE USES IN THE PREVIOUS SLIDE. AT THE TIME AND THESE, OF COURSE, ARE NOT NUMBERS ADJUSTED FOR INFLATION OR ANYTHING, BUT AT THE TIME IN 2018, THEY RECOMMENDED THAT THE TOTAL COST OF CONSTRUCTION FOR THOSE FOUR BUILDINGS WOULD TOTAL OVER $53 MILLION.

WHICH IS A LOT OF MONEY AND SO WHAT THE CITY DID WITH THAT IS SLOWLY BUT SURELY START WORKING IN THAT DIRECT UNION. LATE THEY ARE SAME YEAR PURCHASED OFF BEN JORDAN, YOU MAY RECALL THAT. THE INTENTION WAS NEVER TO DEVELOP ALL 25 ACRES AND SO THE

[00:35:04]

WE WOULD LIKE TO LOOK AT THEM AND THINK WHAT IS THE HIGHEST AND BEST USE AND THAT BECAUSE OF THE PROXIMITY TO SCHOOLS, TRIAL NETWORK AND WHAT IS AROUND IT, IT MADE SENSE FOR THIS LAND OFTEN OF BEN JORDAN TO BE SOME TYPE OF RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT. SO SINCE THEN WE'VE SOLD OFF OFF 25-ACRE AND SOLD TEN ACRES TO ENCHANTED GARDENS THAT WILL OPEN UP HERE IN THE NEXT SEVERAL MONTHS AND REREMAINING ACRE WE SOLD A FEW MONTHS AGO TO DEVELOPER BUILDING HOMES ACROSS FROM BEN JORDAN AND JUMP THE STREET AND POP UP IN THE PHIPP ACRES SO WE'VE DONE THAT, WHICH LEADS US TO WHAT WE DID LAST YEAR WHICH IS A 2021 STUDY UPDATE TO THAT STUDY FROM 2018.

THERE WERE SOME MISSING ELEMENTS FROM THE 2018 STUDY I FELT WAS IMPORTANT.

IT WAS IMPORTANT TO TAKE A FRESH LOOK AND THERE WAS A COUPLE OF BIG CHANGES THAT HAPPENED SINCE THEN. OBVIOUSLY THE ADMINISTRATION CHANGE THEY MENTIONED AT THE CITY MANAGER'S OFFICE LEVEL BUT POLICE DEPARTMENT WHO BROUGHT IN A NEW POLICE CHIEF AND IMPORTANT TO INCLUDE THE NEW POLICE CHIEF AND NEW VISIONING PROCESS FOR THE FUTURE OF THE POLICE DEPARTMENT, THAT ORIGINAL STUDY ALSO DID NOT ACCOUNT FOR WHAT HAPPENS WITH THE SPACE.

AND SO FOR ME THAT WAS A BIG MISSING PIECE, RIGHT, SPEND ALL THIS TIME TALKING OBTAIN MOVING THE POLICE DEPARTMENT BUT ZERO TIME TALKING ABOUT THE SPACE THEY VACATED AND SO THIS EXERCISE INCLUDED THE DEPARTMENTS THAT HAVE A PRESENCE IN WHAT I'M CALLING THE CITY HALL COMPLEX SITE WHICH IS A SITE WE'RE IN NOW WHICH IS THE CITY MANAGER'S OFFICE AND CITY SECRETARY OFFICE AND MUNICIPAL COURT AND HAVE THEM GO THROUGH A VARIETY OF EXERCISES SIMILAR TO THE POLICE AND FIRE DEPARTMENT AND SO THAT AGAIN INCLUDED THE SPATIAL ANALYSIS, ASSESSMENT OF EXISTING BUILDINGS WHICH WAS NOT A PART OF THAT STUDY IN 2018. PART OF THIS STUDY DEVELOPED SOME OPTIONS AND I'LL SHARE A COUPLE OF THOSE WITH YOU. BEFORE I SHARE A COUPLE OF THOSE OPTIONS A COUPLE OF THE RESULTS I KNOW THIS TEXT IS SMALL AND I APOLOGIZE FOR.

THAT BUT ON THE POLICE AND 911 SIDE PROPOSES A 90% INCREASE OF SQUARE FOOTAGE SPACE.

THE SQUARE FOOTAGE IS SEVERELY INADEQUATE TO THE NEEDS THAT THEY HAVE.

THIS TAKES INTO ACCOUNT A 20-YEAR STAFF GROWTH. I KNOW THAT MAYOR, YOU ASKED THE QUESTION AT THE LAST MEETING AROUND, YOU KNOW WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME WE DID A STUDY.

AND THERE IS A STUDY THAT IS GOING TO TAKE A MORE SPECIFIC LOOK AT, THAT BUT WE FOLLOWED A VERY SPECIFIC MODEL WHICH WAS THE POPULATION MODEL AND ACROSS THE COUNTRY THAT USE 1.6 TO 2.6 PER,000 AND IS IN YOUR COMMUNITIES A A BASELINE WE CHOSE A CONSERVATIVE NUMBER OF 1.8, JUST SHY OF 2 BECAUSE WE KNEW THAT WE WANTED TO BE COGNIZANT OF JUST THE REALITY OF THE GROWTH OF OUR COMMUNITY. WE'RE NOT SEEING 10% GROWTH, YOU KNOW, EVERY YEAR LIKE SOME COMMUNITYS ARE AND ULTIMATELY WE LANDED IN COORDINATION WITH THE POLICE DEPARTMENT TO 166 SWORN OFFICERS OVER THE 20-YEAR PERIOD WHICH YOU CAN SEE IS A 23-MEMBER INCREASE IN SWORN OFFICERS AS WELL AS ADDITIONAL CIVILIAN EMPLOYEE, THAT IF WE WERE TO IMPLEMENT THAT OVER A 10-YEAR PERIOD WE COLD DEVELOP STRATEGY AROUND THAT, BUT NUBLES THOSE ARE NUMBERS USED FOR THIS.

WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THE FACILITY WILL LAST US SEVERAL DECADES AFTER CONSTRUCTED.

OTHER ISSUES THAT CAME AROUND WERE SECURED PARKING WE HAVE SEVERE ISSUES WITH LACK OF PARKING AROUND OUR EXISTING FACILITY. DISPATCH IS NOT LOCATED WITH FA TROLL WITH THE POLICE DEPARTMENT, AND THERE IS NOT ENOUGH MEETING ROOMS IF YOU HAVEN'T BEEN INTO THE INTERROGATION ROOMS THEY'RE VERY SMALL.

AND SO THEY'RE A LITTLE BIT INADEQUATE. AND TECHNOLOGY, OF COURSE ISN'T WHAT IT NEEDS TO BE. ON THE FIRE DEPARTMENT SIDE, NOT MUCH OF AN INCREASE, BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY WHEN THE FIRE DEPARTMENT GROSS, THEY GROW WITH FIRE STATIONS.

THIS ACCOUNTS OFOR THE ADMINISTRATION PEACE BUT A 27% INCREASE IN THE SPACE NEEDS THEY HAVE AS WELL AS SOME MINOR GROWTH IN STAFF. MUNICIPAL COURT WHICH WE'RE INCLUDING IN THIS FACILITY, THEY WILL SEE THE MOST GROWTH WHICH, AGAIN, GIVES US A SENSE OF HOW

[00:40:02]

AND SO OBVIOUSLY THERE IS ADA COMPLIANCE ISSUES THERE AS WELL. TECHNOLOGY IS A BIG PART OF IT, AND ACCOUNTING FOR THE FUTURE STAFF GROWTH FOR THAT DEPARTMENT AS WELL.

THIS SIMPLY LOOKS AT SOME OF THE ISSUES THEY IDENTIFIED WITH THE EXISTING THEY LOOKED AT OPTIONS AS PART OF THIS STUDY LAST YEAR, THEY LOOKED AT THE OLD ADVOCATE BUILDING TO LOOK AT WHAT OTHER BUILDINGS DOWNTOWN THAT COULD POTENTIALLY HOUSE OUR PUBLIC SAFETY HEADQUARTERS BUILDING ULTIMATELY THIS FACILITY DIDN'T WORK WE LOOKED AT 700 MAIN, AGAIN, NOT BIG ENOUGH.

AND ALSO, THERE WERE SOME PARKING LIMIT 8 WITH THIS SITE AS WELL.

SO ULTIMATELY TO MAKE SENSE THIS GIVES YOU A SIZE OF IT, MORE OR LESS 68,000 SQUARE FEET, TWO-STORY BUILDING IN ORDER TO ACCOMMODATE A THAT GROWTH AND EXPANSION THAT I MENTIONED AS WELL AS THE NEEDS FOR THE DIFFERENT DEPARTMENTS, YOU CAN SEE HOW MANY PARKING SPACES A SITE LIKE THIS ACCOUNTS FOR AND COMPARED TO THE ONE FROM 2018 ONLY ONE BUILDING OPPOSED TO 4.

SO THIS VERSION OF THE EXERCISE DOESN'T COMBINE AS MANY SITES AS THE FIRST OPTION IN 2018.

TO POTENTIALLY THROUGH A GRANT OF SOME KIND MAYBE GROW THAT TO BE A TRAINING FACILITY THAT CAN GENERATE MONEY AND YOU HEARD CHIEF FOX TALK ABOUT OPPORTUNITIES IN THAT AREA.

BUT IT MAKES SENSE TO LOOK AT THE DRILL SITE AND CONVERT THAT INTO A PUBLIC TRAINING SITE NOT JUST FOR THE FIRE DEPARTMENT AND TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE FACT THAT WE OWN ALL THE LAND BEHIND THAT SITE. THAT IS SORT OF ANOTHER VISION FOR A LONGER, I GUESS, PERIOD OF TIME, BUT FOR NOW, WE WANTED TO FOCUS ON THE PRIORITY, FOUR YEARS AGO, THE PRIORITY PHASE ONE WAS AN INDOOR GUN RANGE. THAT IS NOT PRIORITY. THE PRIORITY IS THE BUILDING FOR THE PERSONNEL FOR PA TROLL TO REALLY HAVE THE FACILITIES THAT THEY DESERVE.

SO WITH THAT, YOU'VE SEEN THESE. THIS WAS LAST YEAR'S NUMBERS. I'M SURE THESE NUMBERS WILL CHANGE. DEREK AND I HAD A CONVERSATION WITH THE ARCHITECT A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO AND THEY WILL BE WORKING ON UPDATING THE COST ESTIMATES THIS SUMMER SO WE CAN HAVE JUST A TRUER PICTURE AS TO WHAT THIS POTENTIALLY MIGHT LOOK LIKE.

BUT NONETHELESS THIS GIVES YOU A SENSE THAT IT WOULD COST LESS THAN THE 60 MILLED FACILITY WE WOULD HAVE TO BUILD IF WE WENT THAT ROAD WITH DIDN'T WANT TO GO RIGHT SMACK INTO WHAT WE WOULD DEEM A RESIDENTIAL AREA, WE WANTED TO FIND A CENTRALIZED AREA THAT TOOK INTO COUNT OUR NEW VISION FOR GROWTH, PREVIOUSLY THAT SITE OFF OF BEN JORDAN WAS SELECTED BECAUSE OF THE FACT THE CITY'S POSITION OF GROWTH WAS VERY CENTERED AROUND GROWING TO THE NORTH AND NOW TRYING TO HAVE BETTER BALANCE WHETHER ON THE LOOP GOING TOWARDS THE AIRPLANE AIRPORT, WE'RE FOCUSING ON THE FUTURE OF I69 AND THE SOUTHEAST QUADRANT OF OUR COMMUNITY AS WELL.

JUST OUR WHOLE APPROACH TO DEVELOPMENT IS A LITTLE BIT MORE DIVERSE IN TERMS OF WHERE IT HAPPENS, RIGHT, INFILL, ALL THE DIFFERENT INITIATIVES WE'RE EMBARKING ON AND AGAIN, THE MIND SET THEN WAS JUST FOCUSED ON THE NORTH. SO THEY PICKED A SITE MORE NORTH. AGAIN, WE WANTED TO PICK A SITE MORE CENTRALLY LOCATED TO ACCESS ALL PARTS OF TOWN AND ACCESS TO MAJOR THOROUGHFARES, CLOSE PROXIMITY TO DOWNTOWN TO LEVERAGE THIS AS AN EMPLOYMENT HUB TO NOT COMPLETELY TAKE AWAY THE BENEFIT OF HAVING THESE MANY PEOPLE WORKING CLOSE TO DOWNTOWN, WHETHER IT IS FOR DINING PURPOSES OR OTHERWISE.

AND ULTIMATELY WE LANDED ON THIS SITE THIS HAD BEEN A PREFERRED SITE FOR A WHILE AS YOU KNOW.

AND WE HAD TO WAIT QUITE A WHILE TO WAIT FOR THIS PROPERTY TO BECOME AVAILABLE.

IT IS 32-ACKER TRACK, BUT IT IS ACTUALLY SPLIT INTO TWO BIG TRACKS AND SO THE 14-TALKER TRACK YOU SEE HIGHLIGHTED HERE ON THE SCREEN IS THE ONE THAT IS MOST DEVELOPABLE.

YOU CAN SEE IT IS CLOSE TO THE FLOODPLAIN, BUT THERE IS THE STATE IS CLOSEST TO WHERE THE CORNER OR QUADRANT OF THE SITE THAT IS CLOSEST TO THE KUBOTA DEALERSHIP.

BUT THE REMAINING 14 ACRES WHATEVER WE END UP LOOKING DOING THE RV PARK THAT WE HAVE THERE.

ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE KNOW IS FRONT AND CENTER IS THE FACT THAT EVERYBODY IS AWARE THAT THERE WAS FILL BROUGHT INTO THE SITE, SO WE HIRED DO GEOTECHNICAL ANALYSIS AND BORINGS DONE THROUGHOUT THIS AREA AND IDENTIFIED FILL MATERIAL AND DIDN'T HIT ANY DEBRIS BUT IMPOSSIBLE TO BORE EVERY INCH OF THE SIGH, SO WE KNOW THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR SOME REMEDIATION WORK ON THE SITE THAT MIGHT NEED TO HAPPEN WHEN THE TIME COMES, BUT QUITE FRANKLY FOR A FACILITY THIS SIZE, TYPICALLY THE FOUNDATION IS DESOONED IN A WAY TO ACCOUNT FOR A LOT OF THOSE ISSUES. AND SO WE DON'T HAVE ANY MAJOR CONCERNS AROUND THAT PART OF IT.

AND SO SUBSEQUENTLY WE'RE OFFICIALLY ACQUIRING THE ACREAGE FOR $750,000.

AND THIS IS A SENSE OF THE TIMELINE. WE DO HAVE IN THE CIP FOR NEXT YEAR THE FUNDS FOR THE DESIGN SO WE DO ANTICIPATE AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE IN OCTOBER GOING INTO THE DESIGN PROCESS, OBVIOUSLY AS WE GO THROUGH THE DESIGN PROCESS WE'LL GET A BETTER FEEL FOR COST ESTIMATES AND HAVE TO OBVIOUSLY POTENTIALLY DISCUSS PHASING OPINGS AND HAVE ALL OF THOSE CONVERSATIONS DURING THE DESIGN PROCESS. THE IDEA IS TO FINISH THAT PROCESS, COME SUMMERTIME OF NEXT YEAR IS THAT WE CAN ADEQUATELY FUND THE FISCAL YEAR 2024 CIP WITH WHATEVER APPROACH WE CHOOSE TO EMBARK ON AND OBVIOUSLY CONSTRUCTION STARTS AND

HOPEFULLY COMPLETED BY SUMMER OF 2025. >> OVERDO.

ANYBODY WANT TO MAKE A MOTION? >> I DO, I MA MAKE A MOTION THAT WE BUY THE 32 ACRES FOR

$750,000. >>> I'LL SECOND. >> ALL RIGHT, MOTION AND A SECOND. IS THERE ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR AAYE, THOSE OPPOSE SAME SIGN. THAT PASSES SO NO CITY MANAGER REPORTS AND WE ARE GOING TO
