[4.1. Public Improvement District Policy (Ashley Bailey)]
ONE PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT POLICY.I'M ACTUALLY GOING TO DO IT ONLINE WHILE THEY'RE GETTING THIS PULLED UP.
UM, SO I WANT TO TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT, UH, KIDS IN GENERAL, KIND OF THE HISTORY OF WILD.
WE'RE SEEING THEM BEING USED SO MUCH IN DEVELOPMENT FOR CITIES.
NOW, THE IMPORTANCE OF THE CITY BEING SOPHISTICATED AND UNDERSTANDING HOW TO USE THIS AS A, AS A TOOL.
AND IT'S A DEVELOPMENT PORTFOLIOS.
THE, UM, THE TONIGHT'S WILL MOSTLY BE PRESENTED BY ASHLEY, BUT GENERALLY SPEAKING, UM, I HAVE SEEN A LOT OF DEVELOPMENT IN MARK'S CAREER, BUT IT WASN'T UNTIL ABOUT 2009 OR 10 THAT I REALLY STARTED TO SEE IT'S SHOWING UP TIME AND TIME AGAIN WITH ALMOST EVERY MAJOR DEVELOPMENT THAT CAME THROUGH THE DOOR.
AND FRANKLY, THAT IS PREDOMINANTLY BECAUSE OF WHAT HAPPENED IN 2008, BUT THE BANKING, UH, YOU KNOW, RESTRUCTURING AND ALL OF THE, UH, THE FEDERAL RULES THAT GOT PASSED, THAT KIND OF CHANGED HOW DEVELOPERS CAN HAVE ACCESS TO THE CAPITAL FOR THEIR DEVELOPMENTS.
PIDS ARE EFFECTIVELY PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICTS, THEIR FINANCING MECHANISM.
THAT'S BEEN ON THE BOOKS WITH THE STATE FOR A LONG TIME.
UH, BUT YOU DIDN'T GENERALLY SEE THEM TOO TERRIBLY OFTEN.
I DO KNOW UP IN THE DALLAS FORT WORTH AREA, THAT THERE WAS A FEW MORE, UM, UH, PITS BEING USED UP IN THAT REGION, BUT DOWN IN CENTRAL TEXAS, PREDOMINANTLY NOT SO MUCH THEN, UM, Y'ALL REMEMBER THE HOUSING BUBBLE AS EVERYONE.
UH, YOU KNOW, DURING THAT TIME CONSTRUCTION DIDN'T STOP, BELIEVE IT OR NOT, IT JUST SLOWED DOWN.
AND THEN THE DEVELOPERS STARTED TO LOOK FOR OTHER WAYS TO PAY FOR AND TO RAISE CAPITAL.
AND THAT'S WHERE THE TOOL FOR KIDS CAME TO, TO, TO BEAR.
WHENEVER I WAS FIRST PRESENTED WITH A KID, UH, I CERTAINLY WAS VERY SKEPTICAL.
UH, I DIDN'T NECESSARILY UNDERSTAND THEM.
I DIDN'T THINK THAT THEY WERE FAIR, UH, TO THE OTHER DEVELOPERS.
WE DIDN'T HAVE ACCESS TO PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DOLLARS AND, UH, IT TOOK ME A WHILE TO REALLY UNDERSTAND HOW THEY FUNCTION AND HOW THEY CAN BE USED FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE COMMUNITY AND THEN ULTIMATELY TO THE CITY, UH, AND THE DEVELOPER AND EVERYONE THAT LIVES THERE TOO.
SO THAT IS THE PRIMARY AS TO WHY YOU'RE SEEING THEM NOT UNLOCKING OTHER ACRONYMS, UM, MUDS AND, AND TERRORS AND, UH, AUDITING DIDS AND EVERYTHING ELSE.
IT IS A TOOL, NOT THE ONLY TOOL THAT A TOOL IN THE TOOLBOX USE.
AND, UM, I BELIEVE THAT AS YOU SEE MORE AND MORE OF THE PROPERTY AND THE COMMUNITY DEVELOP PARTICULARLY, UM, IN AREAS THAT, UH, THAT HAVE NOT DEVELOPED BEFORE YOU ARE GOING TO ENCOUNTER MORE AND MORE REQUESTS FOR BIDS.
SO ON THAT NOTE, I'M GOING TO HAVE ASHLEY SPEAK AS TO WHAT KIDS ARE AND THE DIFFERENT COMPONENTS OF THEM.
AND I JUST WANT TO REMIND THE PUBLIC, UH, AND ALL OF THE ONE THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE.
IT'S REALLY A GREAT TURNOUT FOR THIS CONVERSATION AND BEYOND BUILD HERE AND KIND OF CARRY IT ALONG.
BUT THE WHOLE PURPOSE OF WORKSHOPPING IS TO GIVE COUNCIL AND THE PUBLIC MORE TIME WITH TOPICS, NOT LESS.
SO IT ALLOWS THE PRIMER AND ALLOWS THE INFORMATION TO BE STARTED AND THEN ALLOWS FOR CONVERSATION AND DIALOGUE TO HAPPEN BEFORE THE COUNCIL ENDS UP HAVING TO MAKE A LEGISLATIVE DECISION SUCH AS ADOPTING DID POLICY.
ON THAT NOTE, THE DRAFT PIT POLICY WAS INCLUDED, UH, IN THE BACKUP MATERIAL FOR THE AGENDA.
AND I INCLUDED THE COMMENTS THAT WERE PROVIDED SO GRACIOUSLY BY KEVIN, UM, UH, KEITH KEITH, HAVING KEITH PEERS, UM, IS A SPECIAL K WE'LL CALL IT SPECIAL K UH, PROVIDED, UH, THE, AND THAT'S MORE FROM THE DEVELOPER'S POINT OF VIEW WITHOUT NIGGAS VERY IMPORTANT FOR JUST WORK ACCOUNTABILITY AND SEEING HERE.
SO ACTUALLY, IF YOU COULD WALK US THROUGH, UH, THE, HIS PRESENTATION.
SO TODAY, BEFORE YOU SO GENERAL CONCEPTS FOR PANTS, FINANCING AND DEVELOPMENT TOOL AVAILABLE IN CITIES AND COUNTIES, AND THEY ARE GRABBED HER BY CHAPTER 3 72 OF THE TEXAS LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE, UM, A PITT IS CREATED, UH, IN A DEFINABLE AREA AND YOU'D BE IN THE APPROPRIATE LIMITS FOR EACH DAY OF THE CITY.
POLICY HAS ALWAYS REQUIRED THAT THEY ARE WITHIN THE CITY.
THE PURPOSES OF PIT IS TO CONFER SPECIAL BENEFIT FOR ON SUCH A DEFINED AREA.
AND THOSE OWNERS THAT HAVE BEEN BEING PAID THE ASSESSMENTS TOWARDS THE AUTHORIZED IMPROVEMENTS, AND IT DOES NOT REDUCE THE CITY'S BOND RATING AND THE ARE NON-RECOURSE TO HADOOP.
AND ALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS ARE PAID FOR BY THE PIT.
AND YOU CAN CREATE ASSESSMENTS WITHOUT PENALTY.
AND THAT COSTS A CERTAIN FROM LIKE A MONTH.
YOU KNOW, WHAT THAT FIXED THING IS GOING TO BE FOR THE LIFE OF THE PIG AND THEY ARE DISCRETIONARY.
SO HERE ON SOME OF THOSE IMPROVEMENTS, WHAT WE'RE SEEING A LOT OF IS LANDSCAPE IMPROVEMENTS.
SO STREET TREES, MEDIUM PLANNERS, UPGRADED LANDSCAPING OUT OF FALCONS, DECORATIVE LIGHTING, EVEN SIGNAGE, SIDEWALKS, TRAILS, MULTIPURPOSE PATHS, ANYTHING LITERALLY NEXT CITY, PUBLIC ART,
[00:05:01]
PUBLIC SPACES TO INCLUDE COMMENTS AND OTHER, UM, AREAS FOR GATHERING WATER WASTE, WATER DRAINAGE FACILITIES, PURCHASE OF REAL PROPERTY NATIONAL.AND IT'S GOING TO BE COUNCIL ACTION ON THE POSITION OF THE LAND OWNER THAT PETITION SETS OUT THE ESTIMATE OF COSTS AND PERMITS TO BE PAID.
THAT DEVELOPMENT COMES IN FIRST BEFORE COUNCIL FEEDBACK AND THE KID LIKE THE MIND SUPPORT SIDE.
IT'S NOT A SEPARATE GOVERNMENT ENTITY.
THIS IS WHAT EACH DISTRICT ASIDE IS SAY.
UM, SO THE DISTRICT
OTHER IMPEDIMENTS, YOUR MORTGAGE AND ASSESSMENTS ARE COMPRISED OF DEBT SERVICE AND OUTSTANDING BONDS, ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES.
SO AGAIN LIKE THE BACK OF YOUR KIND OF ILLUSTRATION FEES, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE OF RESERVE FUNDS SUCH AS SECURE PAYMENT BONDS, YOU'RE JUST SERVICING THE SECOND PLANS.
IT'S A PRETTY BY THE CITY WITH A PID.
YOU'VE PROBABLY BEEN RECALLED AT THE LAST COUNCIL MEETING AND SAW SEVERAL OF THOSE ON YOUR AGENDA FOR SOME OF THE PITS THAT WE ALREADY HAVE.
THAT'S WHAT WE'RE DOING, THAT'S REQUIRED ANNUALLY.
SO YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE PIT DOWN THROUGH YOUR PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS IN THOSE PROJECT COSTS THE ASSESSMENT PLAN, YOUR SERVICE PLANS, YOUR ANNUAL ON DEAFNESS AND THE ASSESSMENT ROLE, THE SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN HAS TO COVER A MINIMUM OF FIVE YEARS.
AND THAT'S TYPICALLY WHAT YOU SEND OUT FOR IT, BUT IT ALSO ASKS FOR UPDATES COUNSELED.
SO THE SERVICE ASSESSMENTS RIGHT NOW THAT ARE ACTUALLY COVERED BY PAGE THREE AND JOHN WOULD COME THROUGH THAT NIGHT, BUT THIS IS ACTUALLY WONDERFUL AGENDA.
THE ASSESSMENT ROLE ATTACHED TO THE SERVICE NECESSITY ASSESSMENT PLAN SETS OUT THE ASSESSMENT AGAINST EACH PARCEL OF LAND OR LOCKED IN THE KIT.
SO YOU'LL SEE THOSE FOR THE HOMEOWNERS AS FAULT AS WELL AS FOR THAT PROBLEM.
WE ARE ASSOCIATION WITH OTHER MEMBERS.
SO AGAIN, KEN ADMINISTRATION CONCERT PAID FOR BY THE PIT.
TYPICALLY THE CITY HIRE THE THIRD PARTY.
WE HAVE T3 THAT HELPS US WITH THAT BASIS IN THE BILLING OF ASSESSMENTS TO PROPERTY OWNERS, COLLECTION OF THE ASSESSMENTS AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE OVERSIGHT AT THE PIT ADMINISTRATOR ALSO UPDATES THE SERVICE ASSESSMENT PLAN ON ANNUAL BASIS AND SEND, MUST'VE HEARD THE PITCH AND WHAT'S, IT'S LIKE OVERSEE THE ADMINISTRATION.
AND THE CITY IS ALSO RESPONSIBLE FOR INITIATING THE FORECLOSURE PROCESS ON A LANDOWNER OR NON-PAYMENT OF THE ASSESSMENTS, THE SAME EVEN ENFORCING THINGS FOR NON-PAYMENT OF TAXES.
SO BOND INSTRUMENTS, THE PIT BONDS, OR SPECIAL OBLIGATIONS THAT ARE SECURING THE PAYABLES SOLELY FOR IF YOU'VE BEEN SET CAN NOT BE PAID FROM THE BOND PROCEEDS.
THOSE MUST BE FUNGIBLE THAT STUDY ITSELF IS NOT VIABLE FOR REPAYMENT OF THE BONDS.
SO THERE ISN'T A GENERAL OBLIGATION AND THE FUNDS RELATED TO THE PIN HEALTH AND TRUSTEE AS CHOSEN BY CITY COUNCIL AND THE TRUST ESTABLISHES THE TERMS OF THE BONDS AND SECURES THE PIT ASSESSMENT REVENUE STREAM FOR THE BOND HOLDERS.
SO THE OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE TRUST INDENTURES SEND NOTICE OF A
SO WITH THAT, YOU DO HAVE BOTH THE RED LINES IN YOUR POCKET.
SO CERTAINLY IT WOULD BE ONE OF THE BE WE WANTED THEM TO BE PRETTY GOOD GUIDELINES ON HOW WE WANT THESE KIDS TO OCCUR AND WHAT THE CITY IS LOOKING FOR, BUT WE ALSO STILL WANT THEM TO MEET US UP FOR SOME FLEXIBILITY.
I KNOW, I BELIEVE THERE'S ONE CHANGE THAT YOU'RE MAKING, MAKING IT SORT OF A PROFILE.
PEOPLE ARE LOOKING FOR THE PERCENTAGE AS AN OPTION.
SO I'LL TAKE OVER, UM, ON THAT NOTE, I'LL, I'LL, WE'LL END WITH THAT, BUT I WANT TO SAY I GET THERE.
SO, SO THE REAL QUESTION IS WHY, WHY DO YOU USE PIDS? UH, WHY DO YOU HAVE THEM IN A COOL BOX AND WHEN ARE THEY APPROPRIATE OR CITY DEVELOPMENT, UH, TO USE, UH, WITH, UH, LET'S JUST SAY RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT, BUT THAT'S NOT A UNIQUE PINS CAN BE OVER A COMMERCIAL PROPERTY TO AS MOST EVERYBODY IN THIS ROAD PROBABLY WELL KNOWS.
UH, BUT LET'S JUST SAY RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT, WHY? WELL, THERE'S A NUMBER OF REASONS WHY, BUT THE BIGGEST REASON FOR THE STAFF AND FOR THE CITY TO CONSIDER USING PITS, UH, IS BECAUSE IT BRINGS THE DEVELOPERS TO THE TABLE TO NEGOTIATE.
UM, YOU HAVE, YOU HAVE JURISDICTIONAL CONTROL OVER WHETHER OR NOT YOU WILL AGREE TO ALLOW IT BEFORE OR NOT.
AND BECAUSE OF THAT, IT BRINGS THAT BRINGS PARTIES TO THE TABLE TO NEGOTIATE.
WELL, WHAT TYPES OF THINGS DO YOU TYPICALLY NEGOTIATE? A LOT OF THESE PEOPLE IN THIS ROOM AND NEGOTIATED WITH ME BEFORE.
SO THEY KNOW EXACTLY THE TYPES OF THINGS THAT TRADITIONALLY, BUT USUALLY IT'S QUALITY OF LIFE THINGS.
UH, IT'S THE STANDARD OF DEVELOPMENT WITHIN THE SUBDIVISION ITSELF.
[00:10:01]
TO THE COMMUNITY FROM THE PROJECT COMING IN.IT'S MAKING SURE THAT THE PROJECTS ARE, ARE LOOKED AT AND IN THE HOLES TERM OF THEIR, OF WHAT THEY BRING TO THE TABLE AND NOT JUST, UH, IN A SNAPSHOT OF WHAT THEY MIGHT BE DOING.
UH, IT'S, IT'S A LENS OF LAND USES.
IT'S INTERESTING ARCHITECTURE, IT'S ALL OF THESE TYPES OF THINGS, UH, OPEN SPACE AND SO ON AND SO FORTH.
IF A DEVELOPER WANTS TO WALK IN THE DOOR AND DO STRAIGHT TO ZONING AND BUILD IT A CODE, THEY CAN DO THAT.
IF THEY'RE ASKING FOR IT, IT'S GENERALLY BECAUSE THEY ARE LOOKING FOR SOME VISION THAT THEY WANT TO BRING TO THE TABLE.
AND THEY'RE ASKING FOR THE CITY TO HELP THEM HAVE THIS MECHANISM AS A WAY TO HELP FUND.
AND THEN GENERALLY SPEAKING, THE CITY GETS BENEFITS TO, UM, WE CAN AGREE TO THINGS AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENTS, UH, THAT STATE LAW TOOK AWAY AS RIGHT BY MY CITIES.
THE MOST NOTABLY THAT EVERYBODY'S ROOM KNOWS CAUSE ARCHITECTURAL STANDARDS.
SO BEFORE YOU COULD CONTROL BUILDING MATERIALS, NOW YOU CAN'T DO THAT ANYMORE, EXCEPT FOR IN, THROUGH AN AGREEMENT, YOU KNOW, THROUGH A MUTUALLY NEGOTIATED THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT.
SO THOSE TYPES OF REASONS ARE PART OF THE PRIMER WORLDWIDE.
I ALREADY EXPLAINED WHAT THE DEVELOPERS ARE INTERESTED IN.
IT IS FUNCTIONALLY A FORM OF FINANCING, UH, ACCESS TO CAPITAL, IF YOU WILL.
AND THE OTHER THING THAT'S UNIQUE ABOUT THIS THERE'S CERTAIN THEORY IS THAT WHEN THE DEVELOPER FIRST ESTABLISHES A PIT AND ISSUES, DEBT, THE DEVELOPERS, AND ONE THAT OWNS ALL THE PROPERTIES.
SO IF THEY'RE THE ONES MAKING THE ASSESSMENT UNTIL SUCH TIME THAT THEY SELL THOSE BLOCKS AND TRANSFER THAT ASSESSMENT TO ANOTHER PARTNER.
UM, SO, AND A LOT OF WAYS THAT DEVELOPERS HAVE SKIN IN THE GAME TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY'RE DELIVERING A QUALITY PRODUCT, AND THEY'RE ALSO DOING IT IN A TIMELY FASHION BECAUSE OTHERWISE THEY'RE LEFT TO, UH, IN THE POSITION OF HAVING TO MAKE THOSE FIT PAYMENTS.
SO IT DOES A LOT OF THE THINGS THAT THE CITIES WANT TO SEE HAPPEN.
IT PROJECTS FROM SYDNEY FOLLOW-UP RIGHT.
IT KEEPS THINGS FROM GETTING ENTITLED AND JUST SITTING THERE, UH, IT ALLOWS MOVEMENT TO OCCUR AND IT'LL GET, IT GIVES US CERTAIN CONTROLS THAT OTHERWISE WE WOULDN'T HAVE, UNLESS THE DEVELOPERS AGREE TO IT.
AND CENTRALLY NOW ON SOME OF THE RECOMMENDATIONS RECOMMENDED CHANGES, THE COMMENTS THAT HAVE BEEN PROVIDED TO YOU FROM BOTH THE DEVELOPERS POINT OF VIEW WILL AID DEVELOPER'S POINT OF VIEW, ALTHOUGH I'M SURE YOU ALL REPRESENT NUMBER OF DEVELOPERS WHO, SO IT'S NOT JUST NECESSARILY ONE DEVELOPER INTEREST, UM, AND THE, UH, THE CURRENT DRAFT, UH, THAT STAFF ATTORNEYS HAVE PROVIDED ARE THERE FOR YOU TO DIGEST INTO, TO READ THE COMMENTS.
AND THE THING ABOUT ONE OF THE THINGS THAT, UH, STRUCK OUT OUR SNUCK UP, STUCK OUT TO ME, I CAN USE THE S WORD, UM, WAS THE $5,000 PER LOCK CHARGE.
SO I SEE WHAT I THINK HUDDLE WAS TRYING TO DO AS I'VE SEEN, UH, COMMUNITY, UH, YOU KNOW, DEVELOPMENT FEES AND COMMUNITY IMPACT FEES AND ALL THOSE TYPES OF THINGS INCLUDED IN THE PITH POLICIES.
UM, BUT GENERALLY SPEAKING, WE DON'T TYPICALLY SEE IT AS A FIXED COST PROFILE.
IT'S USUALLY SOME SORT OF SCALABLE NUMBER AND THE REASON IS ALL WANTS, ARE NOT CREATED EQUAL.
AND IF YOU SAID IT AS A FIXED DOLLAR PER LOT, WELL GUESS WHAT HAPPENS NEXT YEAR? INFLATION HAPPENS THAT SAME DOLLAR AMOUNT DOESN'T BIND YOU THE SAME THING THAT DID THE YEAR BEFORE.
SO USUALLY YOU SEE THAT AS A PERCENTAGE OF FILL IN THE BLANK.
SOMETIMES IT'S THE PERCENTAGE OF, UH, YOU KNOW, THE PIT BOND ISSUANCES AS A WAY OF SETTING THE DOLLAR AMOUNT.
UH, THERE ARE LEGAL WAYS OF HANDLING IT.
SO THAT IS ONE OF THE COMMENTS THAT I'M GOING TO PROVIDE TO YOU TO CONSIDER IS WHETHER OR NOT YOU WANT TO MOVE TO A SCALABLE SOLUTION RATHER THAN A FIXED SOLUTION.
UM, BECAUSE THE THING ABOUT THE $5,000 PER LOCK, AND I SAY, NOT ALL LOCKS ARE CREATED EQUALLY.
WE'LL HAVE, MY LOT IS WORTH 20,000.
I'M PAYING 5,000 ASSESSMENT AND YOUR LOT'S WORTH 200,000 AND YOU'RE PAYING A $5,000 ASSESSMENT THAT THAT'S NOT EQUALLY.
IT AFFECTS ME DIFFERENTLY BECAUSE MY MIND ISN'T WORTH AS MUCH, BUT IT MAKES EVERYBODY PAY THE SAME AMOUNT.
YOU KNOW, EVERYBODY HAD TO PAY THE SAME $5,000 BASICALLY, REGARDLESS OF THE VALUE OF THEIR LOCKED.
GOOD, NOT ALL LOTS ARE CREATED EQUALLY.
SO, SO THAT WAS THE ONE THING THAT JUMPED OUT AT ME.
THE OTHER THING THAT JUMPED OUT AT ME THAT CERTAINLY THE, THE RATIO OF WHICH WE WERE WILLING TO LET THEM, UH, ISSUE BONDS TO GET AND WHAT THAT IS, THINK OF IT.
LIKE IF MY PROPERTY IS WORTH A HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS, ROUGHLY, UM, IF YOU HAVE A THREE TO ONE YOU'RE SAYING, WELL, YOU HAVE TO HAVE THREE TIMES THE VALUE OF WHATEVER YOU ARE GOING OUT FOR BONDS ON THE GROUND.
SO YOU'RE, YOU'RE SAYING THAT I HAVE TO HAVE BASICALLY $25,000, UH, BONDS, AND THAT'S GOOD THAT I'D HAVE TO HAVE AN ADDITIONAL 75,000 OF VALUE AND SOMETHING TO THAT EFFECT.
I MIGHT HAVE THE MAP OFF A LITTLE BIT.
IT'S PROBABLY RELEVANT THERE AT ME, BUT, UM, BUT AT THE POINT, SO IF YOU GO DOWN TO TWO THAT MAKES YOU JUST HAVE THAT TWICE THE VALUE.
[00:15:01]
THE LARGER THE RATIO IS THE MORE CONSERVATIVE IT IS AS FAR AS RISK AVERSION.UM, BUT THAT ALSO THEN LIMITS THE AMOUNT OF BONDS THAT CAN BE USED TO FUND THINGS THAT THE CITY MADE ME WANT TO SEE SUCH AS ENHANCED PARKS OR ENHANCED TRAILS OR ENHANCE, UH, LANDSCAPING, SO ON AND SO FORTH.
SO, UM, AND THEN THAT'S PRETTY MUCH IT FOR ME AND FOR STAFF.
SO, UM, THERE IS A NUMBER OF, UH, PROFESSIONALS WHO ATTENDED THERE, UM, THAT THE COUNCIL CAN CERTAINLY ACCESS.
UH, AND THAT'S WHERE INPUT OR FEEDBACK THAT THIS IS NOT TO CONVINCE YOU ONE WAY OR THE OTHER IS TO BEGIN THE CONVERSATION.
SO YOU CAN FEEL LIKE YOU CAN ASK EDUCATED QUESTIONS, LIKE THE QUESTIONS I HAD ONE.
SO TALKING ABOUT THAT $500 COMMUNITY THINGS IN THERE.
UM, SO YOU HAD SAID SOMETHING JUST NOW ABOUT, YOU KNOW, IT DOESN'T SEEM THERE IT'S PER LOT, BECAUSE SOME BLOCKS ON PAUL MALL CARNEY.
BUT IT WAS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THE INTENTION OF COMMUNITY BENEFIT, HE WAS NOT TO BE PAID OUT OF THE INFANTS, BUT IT WOULD BE EIGHT OUT OF NON DEVELOPER.
IT'S KIND OF A BENEFIT TO THE COMMUNITY.
YOU CAN NOT, AND THE ATTORNEYS ARE IN HERE, SO I'M NOT GOING TO TRY TO STEP ON THEIR TOES, BUT I'M SURE THEY WILL QUICKLY COUNSEL ME IF I SAY THE WRONG.
UM, YOU CANNOT PAY FROM THE BOND PROCEEDS BOND PROCEEDS, BUT EFFECTIVELY WHAT ENDS UP HAPPENING IS I'M A DEVELOPER AND YOU'RE CHARGING ME 5,000 A LOT.
I'M GOING TO PASS THAT ON TO THE INDIVIDUAL THAT'S I WAS TRYING TO GET YOU.
I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE I UNDERSTOOD, RIGHT.
I MEAN, IT'S, IT'S KIND OF MORE OF A PASS THROUGH THEN THE DIRECT COST COST TO THE INDIVIDUAL HERE, BUT IT IS MORE OF A, YEAH.
SO BECAUSE DEVELOPERS JUST LIKE CITIES HAVE, HAVE VARIOUS DIFFERENT POCKETS OF MONEY.
IF YOU LOOK RIGHT HERE, THEY'RE GETTING FUNDING, THEY'RE GETTING PRIVATE FUNDING.
THEY'RE MAYBE GETTING BANK FUNDING, THEY'RE GETTING CERTAINLY FUNDED FROM THE FED FUNDS, BUT WHAT THE FED FUNDS CAN BE USED FOR IS A VERY NARROW SCOPE.
SO ANY FEES THAT WE END UP CHARGING, ALTHOUGH WE MAY CALCULATE IT BASED OFF OF HOW MUCH BONDS THEY GO FOR, THAT'S WHAT WE SAID THAT HE HAS THE FEE ENDS UP BEING PAID BY THE DEVELOPER FROM A DIFFERENT POCKET THAT IS NOT BOND.
BECAUSE I GUESS THE OTHER THING THAT REALLY JUMPED THAT'S ONE OF THE BIGGEST THING THAT JUMPED OUT AT ME LAST TIME WAS THE DOLLARS EXTREME.
UM, I MEAN, IT SEEMS TO BE LIKE WE DID, YOU MIGHT AS WELL JUST SAY WE DON'T WANT IT.
I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'RE GOING TO SEPARATE THAT.
THAT'S KIND OF THE MESSAGE WE'RE SENDING.
THAT'S KIND OF, SO I LIKE THE IDEA OF FIGURING OUT SOME TYPE OF REPEATABLE SAGE THAT MAKES SENSE BURGESS IT'S WHEN THEY MAKE SENSE OF IT ALSO, DOESN'T JUST VIRGIN.
SO I'M JUST WANTING TO POINT OUT IT DOESN'T, IT'S NOT A FIXED 5,000 FOR A MINIMUM OF 5,000.
SO IT DOES SCALE UP, YOU HAVE LARGER BOTS, YOU CAN NEGOTIATE A HIGHER FEE.
UM, I THINK ONE OF THE FACTORS THAT WE'VE DISCUSSED AGAIN UNTIL A COUPLE OF TIMES IS NOT NECESSARILY WANTING A LOT OF SMALL BITES.
THAT'S WHERE THE 5,000 REALLY HURTS THE MOST WHEN YOU GOVERN SMALL LAST.
AND SO I THINK FIGURING OUT A WAY TO DISCOURAGE REALLY SMALL LOTS WITH, OR WITHOUT THE THAT'S, THAT'S NOT A DIRECTION THAT I DON'T THINK COUNCIL IS TO, TO GO DOWN.
AND MAYBE WE DON'T DO IT THROUGH THE FEED OR LOT, BUT WE FIGURE OUT ANOTHER WAY IT POLICY DECISION.
I WOULD THINK IT'S A BIT, WE DON'T WANT SMALLER LOTS.
WE WANT SOME PERCENTAGE OF A MIXTURE OF SMALL, MEDIUM AND LARGE THAT I THINK I'VE DEFINITELY, YEAH.
THERE'S ALL KINDS OF WAYS YOU CAN DO THINGS.
SO IT'S JUST A MATTER OF FIGURING OUT WHAT WORKS BEST FOR EVERYONE.
WELL, THEY GOING TO BE PART OF THE DISCUSSION THOUGH.
SO I, ONE THING THAT'S TO BE DEVELOPED ALL THE SALE, WANT IT TO BE USED, NOT GOING TO ADMIT IT NECESSARILY OUR WANTS FOR THIS FLEXIBLE, BUT WHATEVER LEGISLATIVE BODY THAT OCCURS IN THE FUTURE.
SO THAT'S, IF, YOU KNOW, OVER TIME, PEOPLE, PEOPLE WANT A SMALLER LOT USING THE SAFE, THEY CALL IT DIFFICULT SPACE, THEN THAT NEGOTIATES WITH THE DEVELOPER, THE ONE BENEFIT THAT CAN HELP WITH THIS.
BUT YEAH, THIS TIME WE HEAR THAT SMALL BLOCKS ARE WHAT YOU WANT.
SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO BACK TO POLICY BECAUSE IT'S NOT IN STONE AND PERCENTAGE RATE.
SO I'D RATHER HAVE IT THAT THE LEGISLATIVE OUT FOR THE APP ROLE, BUT IT BURGERS.
IT'S A HUGE BOUNDARY, FOR EXAMPLE, THAT I HAVE TO UPDATE THE POLICIES IN THE FUTURE.
SO I DON'T, I'M NOT TOO WORRIED ABOUT THAT, BUT I DO THINK IT'S NICE TO HAVE SOME FLEXIBILITY IN THE POLICY YOU WANT TO, I MEAN, THERE'S A BALANCE BECAUSE DEVELOPERS WANT TO HAVE SOME CERTAINTY WHEN THEY SEE THE POLICY.
[00:20:02]
YES.BUT YOU HAVE ALSO THE ONE DAY I'M DOING SOME THINGS AND GET BETTER TO GET OPEN.
CITY WANTS TO BE DEPENDENT ON THEM.
SO IT'S, IT IS A BALANCE BETWEEN WALKING THINGS.
AND WE ALSO PUT MOCK SIZE AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT.
WE KEEP THEM OUT OF THE, OR YOU CAN DO A SCALING, LIKE A PIN FEE BASED ON SQUARE FOOTAGE OF THE LOCK.
LET'S SAY, CAUSE THEY BE, YOU DON'T WANT A 65 FOOT BLOCK.
IT'S ONLY A HUNDRED FEET DEEP.
YOU WANT LIKE SOMETHING WITH THE LOGO OF THE YARD.
IF EVERYBODY HAS MADE A REPORT CALLED THE STATE LOTS, IT'S SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
MAYBE IT'S A, IT'S A FEE BASED ON THE SQUARE FOOTAGE AND THEN A LOT SIZES AND ALL THAT STUFF TO BE ADDRESSING THE
WE DON'T WANT SMALL, LOTS OF GENERAL PEACE TO SAY, WE DON'T WANT THE TINY COMPANY.
I DON'T SEE THAT IN DENNIS
AND YOU KNOW, WE NEED TO LISTEN IT OUT FOR SOMETHING COUNSELOR, COULD YOU HELP ME UNDERSTAND THE PERSPECTIVE OF WHAT COUNCIL IS DOING AS SMALL BOOKLETS? WE'VE HAD A LOT OF THOUGHTS THAT ARE OUT OF THE MOTIVE OR YOU'VE GOT A GARAGE IN THE BACK OF YOU CAN'T EVEN PULL YOUR PART IN BEHIND THE GARAGE WITHOUT SITTING DOWN KIND OF A LOT OF, KIND OF THERE JUST
WE WERE SMALL LOSS WANTING TO BE MORE LIKE A TONDO, WHICH KEEPS SO KIND OF CONDO COUNT ON OR LESSONS, A LOT SCORE, OBVIOUSLY SMALLER, BUT THEN ON THE
SO WHAT'S THE ACTUAL
IT SEEMS LIKE THE SKIN IN THE GAME IS DEVELOPED OR IT'S MINIMAL AND IT'S PRETTY MUCH GET ALL OF THEIR SKIN.
UM, SO
LET'S SAY THINGS LIKE IT'S BRINGING INTO PLACE, A LOT OF RESIDENCE FOR THE MOST PART, FOR ALL THE DISTRICTS, WHICH THEY WOULD HAVE HAD TO BE OTHERWISE, IF THEY WANT IT TO FEEL APPROPRIATELY, THE WORD DANCE IS VERY, WHAT IS THE NICK MANCE AND IMPROVEMENT TO THE PUPPETS OGLING OR, BUT IT HAS TO BE A CERTAIN
WHAT DOES THAT ACTUALLY, IF BUTTONS THAT, THAT CONSTITUTES ABOVE AND BEAT ON MORE PRODUCED AND THEN ANOTHER BIG ONE, AND I'M ALWAYS KIND OF LOOKING FOR SEPTEMBER FIVE, AS FAR AS PUBLIC
WAS THAT TO BE SPREADING THAT WORD FREE, VERSUS YOU BEING ABLE TO LEVERAGE A PIECE OF LAND, HAVING THAT MENTAL INSULTED, THE FAIR MARKET VALUE.
AND THEY KNOW THAT JUST HAPPENED WHEN IT PASSED, IF THEY HADN'T CONTINUED SITES BECAUSE THEY SIMPLY COULDN'T AFFORD IT, BUT IT WAS LISTED AS A
I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT I LIKE SUN VEGAS.
EIGHT WAS KIND OF SAID, HEY, IT'S LIKE A TOUCH.
I THINK THE BEAUTY OF THE IS SUPPOSED TO BE THE GATE.
SO WE DON'T LEAVE SOME VERY NORMAL, ESPECIALLY IN THAT COMMUNITY.
WHAT COULD BE A REALLY GREAT PROJECT IF IT'S NOT IT'S ADAM, I CAN'T SEEM TO SAMPLE THAT'S SOMETHING THAT THERE IS LISTED, BUT THEN WE, ONE OF OURSELVES ADD SOMETHING OR CREATE A SOMETHING.
SO WOULD THAT LOOK LIKE THEN? SO THERE'S DIFFERENT WAYS TO HANDLE THE COMMUNITY BENEFIT FEE.
UM, IF IT IS ACTUALLY GOING TO COME FROM YVONNE'S, IT HAS TO BE SPENT IN THE DISTRICT ON IMPROVEMENTS THAT ARE
IF IT DOESN'T COME FROM DEADLINE, WHICH I BELIEVE THE PROPOSAL THAT THEN DOES NOT HAVE TO BE TIED TO IMPROVEMENTS DIRECTLY IN THE DISTRICT, IT'S NO DIFFERENT THAN THE DEVELOPER COMING TO THE TABLE AND SAY, HEY, I'M WILLING TO CONTRIBUTE A MILLION DOLLARS OR WHATEVER ON THIS TO THE CITY AND CHANGE FOR THESE OTHER CONCESSION, YOU KNOW, THAT TYPE OF
[00:25:01]
DEAL IT'S, IT'S HANDLED BASICALLY OUTSIDE OF THE PIN ITSELF.BUT WHAT YOU'RE SAYING ABOUT POLICY IS IS THAT IN ORDER TO BE CONSIDERED FOR IT, WE'D EXPECT THERE TO BE CONTRIBUTIONS THAT WILL USE THE BENEFIT THAT THE YEARS HE WAS ON NECESSARILY JUST AS ENGINEER.
AND IT'S EITHER NOW SIGN, IT SAID CITY ACCOUNT.
I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE POLICY DOESN'T ALLOW THAT SO WELL FAIR.
I MEAN, YOU CAN CHOOSE TO DO IT THAT WAY YOU COULD.
I MEAN, YOU COULD ALWAYS BEEN, IS ALWAYS IN THE OUTSIDE.
WE'RE IN AND YOU WANT TO DO IT IN FIT.
IT CAN, BUT IT SHOULD ALWAYS BE, YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE INSIDE THAT
IT IS HARD THAT YOU GOT MORE RESIDENTS COMING IN TO, LET'S SAY THIS CITY PARK, BUT WE CAN STAND THE BLOCK TO PRINT OUT BOTANICALS SO PEOPLE COULD GET OUT THERE AND BE A PART OF THE REST OF THEM.
SO I ALWAYS WANT TO HAVE THAT AS A POSSIBILITY PART OF THAT, DOES THE COUNCIL GENERALLY WANT RULES LIKE THIS TO BE MORE PRESCRIPTIVE, MEANING VERY FAIRLY NARROWLY DEFINED AS TO WHAT YOU CAN DO IN ORDER TO ALL FIVE OR DO YOU GENERALLY PREFER IT TO BE MORE BROAD AND THEN NEGOTIATING THE INDIVIDUAL TERMS? SO ONE EXAMPLE WOULD BE LIKE GOING BACK TO THE LOT SIZE, RIGHT? YOU SAY, WE'RE NOT GOING TO CONSIDER PITS AT ALL.
UNLESS THE LAWS ARE A HUNDRED FEET WIDE AND 250, THAT'S VERY PRESCRIPTIVE.
YOU'RE SAYING ONLY THIS THING WILL QUALIFY.
BUT IF YOU SAY GENERALLY THE CITY DOESN'T LIKE TO SEE AND AN UNBALANCED OF LOT SIZE, UM, DIVERSITY, THEN THAT ALLOWS YOU TO BE ABLE TO HAVE MORE FLEXIBILITY IN WHAT YOU SEE, BECAUSE GENERALLY SPEAKING, AND YOU KNOW, THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE IN THIS ROOM THAT HAVE WORKED ON WORK WITH ME ON DEALS BEFORE THE OLD WAY OF JUST COMING IN AND DOING EVERY HOUSE.
EVERYTHING LOOKS EXACTLY THE SAME.
THAT'S NOT REALLY THE WAY TO DEVELOP COMMUNITY THE WAY YOU DEVELOP COMMUNITY WHEN IT'S ON THE LARGER DEALS AWAY.
AND YOU'RE DEALING WITH 15 OR 20 ACRES, WE CAN'T DO THIS AS WELL.
UM, BUT ON THE LARGER DEALS, YOU'RE LOOKING AT LIKE WHOLE LIFECYCLE TYPE DEVELOPMENTS.
YOU WANT PLACES FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE FRESHLY MARRIED.
AND MAYBE THAT MEANS IF IT'S A TOWNHOME, THAT'S A RENTAL, YOU KNOW, 81 PLACES FOR THE BURGEONING FAMILY TO LIVE.
AND MAYBE THAT'S AN UPGRADED HOUSE, RIGHT? NOT A STARTER HOME, WHAT WE WOULD CALL A STARTER HOME AND ANYONE PLACES FOR THE EMPTY NESTERS TO LIVE AND MAYBE THEY WANT TO DOWNGRADE IT.
AND THEN GRANDMA AND GRANDPA WANT TO DO THAT.
SO GENERALLY WE STARTED LOOKING AT DEVELOPMENT AS A WHOLE TO BE ABLE TO ADDRESS THE VARIOUS LIFE CYCLES RATHER THAN IT JUST BEING AN ENTIRE NEIGHBORHOOD OF 65 FOOT, LOTS THAT ALL HAVE THE EXACT SAME HOUSING TYPE STRUCTURE, WHICH IS WHAT THE OLD TRADITIONAL METHODOLOGY OF DEVELOPMENT.
SO PRESCRIPTIVE OR FLEXIBILITY.
AND I DON'T KNOW HOW ELSE TO SAY WHAT'S THE OPPOSITE OF RESEARCH, THE SCRIPT.
I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT TO HAVE FLEXIBILITY, I THINK, FOR THAT TO WORK.
SO THE COUNCIL HAS, I MEAN, SO THE STAFF HAVE SOME IDEA OF WHAT COUNCIL OF WHAT THE, THE SENSE OF THE COUNCIL MINUTES.
SO THEY DON'T BRING SOMETHING BACK THAT WERE JUST RELEASED TO THE MONTH TO THREE MONTHS.
THAT'S WE DON'T WANT THAT AT ALL.
OR, OR IF IT IS THAT FOR OUR TEAM, I COULDN'T HAVE DONE BEFORE THEN CAN START BRINGING IT TO US
WE DON'T WANT SOMEBODY TO COME AND DO A LITTLE WORK.
I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU GUYS ARE HERE.
THIS IS NOT A LONG ONE, AT LEAST AS A GUINEA PIG FIGURE THAT TRIGGER POINT.
THAT LEADS ME TO WHAT I WAS GOING TO ASK PARENTS.
THERE'S A LOT OF DIFFERENT COLOR CODING IN THE POLICY.
AND I KNOW WE'VE HAD ISSUES IN THE PASSWORD.
SOME PEOPLE BELIEVE THAT THEY LESS FIRST AND THEN GO THROUGH THE PROCESS AND, AND ON PAGE NINE.
AND IT DOES RECOMMEND THAT IT NEEDS TO BE AT THE INTRODUCTION OF A PROJECT COUNCIL, WHICH I'M NOT AGAINST FALL.
AND, BUT I DO BELIEVE GOING THROUGH AND CAN AT LEAST BE STRINGS BY THAT.
BUT FOR US HAVING TO GO THROUGH, HIGH-GRADE HAVING TO GO THROUGH AND STAFF AND THEN PV, AND THEN FINALLY GETTING TO US.
AND WE'RE LIKE, YEAH, WE DON'T LIKE THIS.
UM, BUT I ALSO BELIEVE THERE COULD BE A WAY THAT IT COULD BE PRESENTED TO STAFF, STAFF FIND IT VALUABLE OR VIABLE, AND THEN IT COMES TO US AND THEN WE CAN GIVE
[00:30:01]
OUR FEEDBACK.AND THEN IT GOES THROUGH THAT MONTH.
I THINK THAT WOULD WORK BETTER.
IS THERE ASHLEY'S THAT ARE CURRENTLY A NON-BINDING CONCEPTUAL PRESENTATION PROCESS HERE? I REALLY HATE THIS INTERSECT ON HOW LONG IT TAKES TO GET
SO THAT MIGHT BE WHERE WE ARE MORE RESTRICTIVE AND LESS UP IN THE AIR WITH IT.
AND I THINK THAT WE WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO SAY, HEY, STAFF PACKET, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE IT FOR THIS MANY DAYS.
AND THEN WE GET ALSO FOR A FIRST LOOK JUST TO SAY, YOU'RE THE FIRST QUESTION.
AND THEN IT COMES BACK TO US AND HAVE A QUESTION TO OVER GROUP.
IS THERE, IS THERE A SIGNIFICANT OBJECTION FROM THE DEVELOPMENT COMMUNITY TO DOING A NON-BINDING CONCEPTUAL PRESENTATIONS TO COUNCIL, WHATEVER YOU'RE TRYING TO GET A FEEL FOR A BETTER DEAL FOR THE PUBLIC PRESENT.
SO WE, LET ME BRIEFLY TELL YOU SOMETHING ABOUT BOURBON YOU'RE OPERA, KEVIN PIERCE FOR EXTRACTION, UH, KEVIN YOUNGBLOOD WITH DFO.
PAUL'S A DIP HOME BUILDER STRUCK CLASSES.
UM, YOU HAVE STEEP AT CAP WITH AT CATHOLIC SCHOOL BUILDINGS.
UH, ONE OF THE OTHER COMMENTS, UH, PREEMINENT ATTORNEYS IN THE STATE, RICK ROSENBERG WITH DPF G AS WELL AS ZACH CRAWFORD, DPF KEY.
THEY ARE THE SMARTEST NUMBERS GUYS WITHIN FIELD.
UM, I THINK
SHE'D BE VERY MUCH SUPPORT HAVING A PROCESS WHERE WE CAN VERY IN THE EARLY PART OF THE PROCESS OF BRINGING SOMETHING TO COUNCIL FOR SOME KIND OF PRELIMINARY OF GOOGLE, EVEN IF IT'S A NON, JUST HAVING SOME KIND OF GUIDANCE, GIVES US A WHOLE LOT MORE COMFORT AND AN ABILITY TO INVEST TIME AND MONEY AND RESOURCES INTO PROJECTS FOR MAY I ASK WHO THEY ARE.
OH, THAT'S OUR, THAT'S OUR NEXT PRESENTATION SUPERFOODS NICE SUPPORTIVE OLDEST DOING AT FIRST IS ONE OF THE LATEST PROJECTS WE HAD.
AND I THINK WHETHER THEY'VE GONE IN FRONT OF US AT THE VERY BEGINNING, BUT IT SAVED SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF TIME ON STAFF AND THE WAY THIS IS SET UP, THEY'RE GOING TO PUT MONEY UP, PUT MONEY UP JUST ABOUT A TIME.
SO THE ONLY OTHER THING I'D SAY IS I'VE ALWAYS BEEN, UH, VERY MUCH AGAINST, AND I LEARNED IT FROM TIME TO BE AGAINST COMMERCIAL PROPERTY IN A PIT, PRIMARILY BECAUSE THE WAY I UNDERSTOOD IT AND THE WAY IT WAS BEING USED TO MAKE THE SITE PLAN.
IF IT'S HOMES, YOU SAY WE'RE GONNA MAKE $500,000 HOMES.
YOU EXTRAPOLATE THAT OUT, COME UP WITH NUMBERS, THAT COMMERCIAL, IT SAID, I'M GONNA BUILD A HOTEL HERE.
I'VE GOT REGIONAL CENTER HERE.
BUT WHAT WE USED TO DO IS EVERY PIT THAT CAME TO US AT TWO OR THREE HOTELS ON IT, THEY'RE GOING TO BE SIX STORIES.
AND I DO THAT IS ALMOST LIKE FRAUD IN A WAY.
AND THAT YOU ARE, YOU ARE PUTTING STUFF ON PAPER.
YOU KNOW, THIS, THERE WAS ONE, UH, I FORGET THE ONE COVERED BRIDGE WAS GOING TO HAVE LIKE MULTIPLE HOTELS IN AN AREA JUST TO HELP THEM GET THE AB THEY NEEDED.
AND SO THEN WHAT I SEE HAPPENING IS IS THE MOST DEVELOPERS WILL CONTINUE TO PAY THE, UH, FEE UNTIL SUCH POINT IT DEVELOPED AND MADE THEIR MONEY.
AND IF WE TAKE THE LAND BACK AND SO I'M ALWAYS KIND OF PUSHED FOR IT, NO MORE COMMERCIAL, UH, BEING PART OF DENSE.
AND THERE'S OTHER MECHANISMS THAT WE CAN DO WHERE WE CAN GET EXTREMELY DETAILED INTO THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT, BUT THE WAY THEY WERE USED IN 19, WE SAW THREE COURT CASES, UH, DEALT WITH THAT MESS.
AND PRIMARILY, UH, AS WE'VE GONE TO RESIDENTIAL ONLY BAYS EXTREMELY SMOOTH.
WE DON'T HAVE ISSUES WITH SAP'S DOUBLETS VOLCAN THAT WE HAVE 10 STORY HOTEL AND NINE STORIES SUPPOSED TO COME OUT HERE.
THAT'S SUPPOSED TO HELP WITH THE AB.
AND WE'VE ALSO SEEN THAT THE CONCEPT OF, YOU KNOW, SPOKES ON THE WHEEL OF NEIGHBORHOOD, WE HAVE LIKE A DAYCARE OR YOU HAVE A GAS STATION OR HAVE SOMETHING WITHIN THAT FIFTH DISTRICT THAT WILL BE ARTICLE COMMERCIAL WITHIN THERE.
SO YOU COULD STRIP TRAFFIC
I THINK THAT'S WHAT YOUR EXAMPLE WAS
SHE'LL HAVE A, A HUNDRED ACRE DEVELOPMENT AND YOU'LL HAVE LIKE, MAN, WE DON'T KNOW, WE DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO IN THIS WHOLE SENATE.
LIKE I KNOW WE'LL DO NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL, WHICH WILL NEVER FLY.
AND IF YOU CAN TALK TO COMMERCIAL PEOPLE, THEY GOTTA BE, PEOPLE WANT TO BE ON MAIN ROADWAYS.
THAT'S WHY YOU SEE 79 BUILT OUT AND SCHMIDT BUILT
[00:35:01]
OUT.AND SO THEY'LL DO THE SAME THING, BUT THAT VALUE THERE IN A SECTION DEVELOP EVERYTHING AND THEN GO, WELL, YEAH, IT JUST HADN'T HAPPENED.
AND SO, UM, SO THIS, DURING THE DAY, PEOPLE, WHEN YOU'RE OUT TO MAKE MONEY, THEY WILL MANIPULATE THINGS TO MAKE IT THAT THEN, WHICH IS COMPLETELY FAIR, THAT'S CAPITALISM.
BUT I ALWAYS GOT TO LOOK AT THINGS IN TERMS OF HOW WILL THEY THINGS ABOUT THOSE THINGS ABOUT THE PUBLIC.
AND ANYTIME YOU THROW COMMERCIAL NARRATIVE, TO ME, IT JUST SEEMS LIKE YOU'RE BORED.
THEY SAY THEY'RE GOING TO GO TO DAYCARE AND THEN THEY'LL BACK LATER AND GO, WE COULDN'T, BUT WE COULD DO A HOTEL LIKE THE HOTEL YOU CAN HANDLE IT AND DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENTS, YOU CAN HANDLE IT.
AND ZONING THERE'S VARIOUS DIFFERENT CUTS THAT THE SOC OR ZONING DOESN'T NECESSARILY HELP BECAUSE IT JUST KEEPS YOU FROM DOING SOMETHING ELSE, BUT IT DOESN'T MAKE YOU FEEL, AND THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT MIGHT BE ABLE TO, BUT DOING IT.
I MEAN, IT'S GOOD TO HEAR THAT THAT'S HOW THEY WERE USED IN THE PAST.
UM, SO, SO KEEP AN EYE ON THAT.
WE'RE TRYING TO DEVELOP THE POLICY AND THEN OF COURSE ALL THE DEVELOPMENT, UH, THANK YOU PROPERLY.
I DO KNOW THAT WE NEED TO MOVE TO THE SECOND TOPIC.
[4.2. Comprehensive Plan Update (Ashley Bailey)]
TO FOUR TO COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UPDATE.SO WHY DON'T YOU UPDATE I'M PROBABLY, WE'LL JUST LET CHANCE TO TAKE IT OVER.
UM, WHY DON'T YOU SEE THEM WORKING AND SEE WHAT WE'RE COMING UP TO THE VIDEO AND TRYING TO GET US GOOD CONVERSATIONS LIKE SCHOOL.
SO I'M CHANCE FRUITS, NIPPLES, AND I'M GOING TO BE SPEEDING.
UH, IN FACT, WHY DON'T WE WE'RE HERE, ALL OF THIS KIND OF SCRATCHED WITH A LOT OF RELEVANCE AND WE'RE TAKING ABOUT PLAYSTATION, POTTERS, USE DIFFERENT TOOLS TO HELP REFRESH YOUR WAY TOWARDS THAT.
THIS, MY DISCUSSION ON HER SCHEDULE, UPDATE, WHERE WE ARE HEADED.
SO WE'RE HANGING OUT RIGHT NOW, SEPTEMBER, 2022, WE'RE STARTING TO DELIBERATE A FULL CHAPTER FACULTY PARKS THERE, UH, AND TAKING CONCERTS AT THE CONFERENCE WITH CLIENTS.
I THINK MAYBE BOTH
UH, SO WE'LL BE NOT REALLY OVER THE NEXT TWO MONTHS, WE'LL GET CLARITY AND IT SHOULD BE INTO THE REVIEW AND REVISION CONVERSATION, INITIAL PUBLIC THINGS, BLOATED WHERE WE ASKED THEM TO REACT TO WHAT THE WORKING PLAN IS, THEIR REACTION TO THE BEGINNER COLLAPSE, UH, CAUSE WE GO FORWARD.
SO THE IDEA IS MAYBE THIS, UH, PLAN TO BECOME THE CHRISTMAS PRESENT IS SO WE FOUND THAT GOING THROUGH THIS WITH THOSE PLANS, I HOPE YOU CAN SEE, THERE ARE BOTH CASES.
IT IS YOUR, YOUR SURVEY PARTICIPATION.
HASN'T BEEN SUPER STRONG, BUT WE'VE GOT SOME VERY INTENSE, UM, AND THAT'S A GOOD THING.
UM, IF GIVEN, GIVEN THE CHOICE, I WILL SAY WITH RESULTS THAT ARE VERY PASSIONATE OVER A WHOLE LOT OF RESULTS THAT ARE KIND OF, SO, UH, SOME GOTTEN REALLY STRONG RESPONSE, ALWAYS EMERGING VERY MUCH SO BECAUSE I'M STARTING GETTING YOUR BASIC FLAG, TRANSPORTATION, BUILDING INFRASTRUCTURE AND IN ADDRESSING GROWTH.
SO THOSE THREE, YOUR FOUR FUNCTIONS ARE NOW EITHER THE CITY.
SO THAT'S CLEAR WHAT THEY'RE PRIORITIZING.
THAT'S WHAT WE'RE FOCUSING ON.
UH, WE HAVE FUN TRUST SOME OF THIS ONLINE ENGAGEMENT WITH COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT EVENTS, UH, IN A SITUATION LIKE
WE FOCUS OUR ENGAGEMENT ONGOING TO PHASE WHERE PEOPLE ALREADY PEEP.
UM, LET'S SAY SOMEONE MAY NOT BE THE MOST POPULAR OR ENGAGING THING FOR SOMEBODY TO SPEND A COUPLE OF HOURS WITH.
UH, BUT IF YOU'RE DOING OTHER THINGS GOING ON A BARKAT, A BLOCK PARTY AND THINGS LIKE THAT, PEOPLE WILL COME TO THAT AND WE'LL GRAB THERE.
WE HAVE REPRESENTATION NICE WITH THOSE, UH, THE DOWNTOWN PLAN, SIMILAR STORY, A LITTLE BIT MORE
[00:40:01]
PARTICIPATION WITH THIS.YOU'VE ALWAYS LIKED THE SMALL AREA PLAN, COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
MY FEELINGS ARE NOT HURT, UH, BUT THE, WHAT WE SEE DIFFERENT BIRTH OUT OF THIS GREATER DIVERSITY OF BUSINESSES, ENTERTAINMENT AND BACK LIFE AND PUBLIC SPACES, PEOPLE ARE LOOKING FOR STUFF TO DO JESSE AS COUNCIL MEMBERS.
SO, UH, UH, SO FROM THAT PERSPECTIVE, WE SHOULD COME UP DESIGN ROAD VIEW.
UH, IF YOU WANT TO DO A QUICK TRIP THROUGH, BECAUSE I WROTE GO IN.
UM, SO IN ORDER TO GET STARTED WITH A DESIRING RODEO, THE FIRST THING WE DID IS WE DID A DNA ANALYSIS.
WE CAME IN AND STUDIED THE PHYSICAL AND NUMERICAL PATTERNS THAT MAKE UP YOUR COMMUNITY.
AND THESE ARE YOUR LOT AND BLOCK PATTERNS THAT LOOKED AT THE FISCAL, UH, ANALYSIS OF YOUR AB DOWNTOWN.
UM, AND WE GATHERED AND WE DREW WHEN WE HAD CONVERSATIONS ABOUT WHAT YOU ASPIRE TO BECOME AND WHAT'S GUIDING THE COMMUNITY.
THAT'S HELPED LEAD THROUGH THE CONVERSATIONS AS WE CONTINUED THERE.
UH, WE DID FUN POP UP PROJECTS, SLIDE DOWN THIS CAMERA.
WE ALSO DID POP UP EVENTS AND UH, WE HAD, UH, COMMENT CARDS AND WE NOT A LOT OF COMMENTS JUST FROM PEOPLE COMING DOWNTOWN AND GETTING ENGAGED WITH THEIR ENVIRONMENT, TRYING TO PROVIDE THEM A LITTLE QUICK AND FAST TACTICAL WAY OF GETTING THEM ENGAGED IN PUBLIC SPACES.
UM, THIS WAS US DRAWING AND DESIGNING.
SO THE OTHER THING WE ASKED FOR IS REAL CATALYST PROJECTS.
AND SO WE ASKED ASHLEY TO GIVE US REAL TRACKS OF LANDS.
WE COULD DRAW REAL DEVELOPMENTS ON TO SHOW THEM THE POSSIBILITIES.
THAT COULD BE FEW MORE OF THOSE, UH, THIS PRESENTATION.
SO THEY CAN ACTUALLY HAVE SOME ICE VISUALS TO GO WITH IT.
SO THE CONFERENCE OF PLANS, PROCESS, AT LEAST A VISION STATEMENT.
THIS IS WHERE WE WANT TO TAKE YOU, PUT YOU INTO A WARRIOR AND TAKE YOU TO 2040.
THIS IS WHAT KNOW IS LIKE IT'S SUSTAINABLE, IT'S INNOVATIVE.
IT'S WELL MANAGED AS GREAT INDUSTRY AND IT'S VERY ATTRACTIVE TO REALLY EVERYTHING.
UM, AND THIS IDEA OF, UH, INCLUSION, CONVECTION AND LOTS OF OPTIONS.
THEY WANT TO BE ABLE TO CALL HONEYWELL HOME FIRST AND SAY, I LIVE IN ALASKA, OR DO YOU WANT THEM TO SAY YOU PLAY THE FIRST AUSTIN'S THIRD ALARM.
AND SO FOCUSING ON THE SMALL TOWN FEEL AND WHAT NUMBERS OUT OF THE SUIT, WHAT IS A HOLDING THAT LITTLE WAY.
BUT IF THAT WAS BROUGHT UP JUST OUT OF NOWHERE AND THE BEATING, AND WE ALL WENT THROUGH SOMETHING LIKE, WHAT IS THIS? SO IT COMES A LITTLE BIT FROM SCHOOL HISTORY AND SOME OF THE EFFORTS THERE, BUT, UH, THAT'S BECOME VERY MUCH A FRAMEWORK, UH, FOR THE TOP RENTS OF THE PLAN GOING FORWARD.
UH, AND WHAT WE SAW THIS, OR ARE REALLY SIX KEY GUIDING PRINCIPLES.
I DID THE FISCAL SUSTAINABILITY THAT YOUR MATH IS WORKING AS A CITY SO THAT YOU CAN FIND QUALITY OF LIFE, CRITICAL PIECE, VIBRANT PLACES, AND A VIBRANT DOWNTOWN, BECAUSE YOU HEAR A LOT ABOUT THIS DNA, UH, DOWNTOWN, WE'RE PULLING THAT INTO HOW DO WE CREATE GREAT, COMPLETE NEIGHBORHOODS AND EXCITING PLACES, UH, WHERE IT'S MORE THAN JUST DOWNTOWN PORTLAND TO 79.
THAT'S A GREAT EXPERIENCE EVERYWHERE.
YOU'RE TRULY CONNECTED TO EVERY SENSE.
THIS IS ADDRESSING NOT JUST TRANSPORTATION, BUT THE IDEA OF COMMUNITY CONNECTION AND, AND THAT PEOPLE FEEL LIKE SOMETHING YOU DO WITH IT IS I FIND HIM, MAYBE TOM PERSON FROM OUT OF THEIR PART OF THE COMMUNITY, UH, ALMOST IMMEDIATELY WELCOME YOU AND SAY, THIS IS SOMETHING THAT ALL PEOPLE, UH, WHERE, WHERE PEOPLE FEEL IT IT'S THE SAME PLACE TO LIVE, SAME PLACE FOR HEALTHY COMMUNITY, WHEREVER YOU GOT RIPPED UP, THIS OPPORTUNITIES, YOU GOT GOOD ACCESS TO HEALTHY FOODS AND THINGS LIKE THAT.
THIS LAST ONE IS ECOSYSTEM ENTREPRENEURS.
THIS IS, UH, THIS IS FOCUSED ON, UH, NOT JUST THE BIGGEST DRAWING, BUT HOW CAN YOU GROW YOUR OWN? AND WHEN SOMEBODY LEAVES THE HYDRO, HOW CAN THEY INVEST FURTHER? Y'ALL WANT THAT HOUSE, YOU KNOW, AND THAT'S SOMETHING THAT, UH, WE HAVE STARTED WORKING ON A FUTURE WAY TO USE A COUPLE OF HIGHLIGHTS FOR BEST, WHICH WE HAVE NOT MET WITH THE ADVISOR YET IS, IS, UH, A BIG CONCEPT ON A
IT WAS A COLLECTION, UH, WHERE PEOPLE WERE IN LOTS OF DIFFERENT FORMATS AND WHERE THEY HAVE THINGS TO DO.
AND I MEAN, IT'S NOT JUST A PLACE TO WORK.
IT GOES TO A PARK AND IT GOES FROM A RELIGIOUS INSTITUTION.
IT'S FOR PEOPLE WITH THE HANGOUT, IT'S THE COFFEE SHOPS, IT'S LITTLE PUBS.
IT'S THINGS LIKE THAT, THAT PEOPLE CAN DO ON A WINNER WITHIN THEIR NEIGHBOR THING.
THIS IS BUILDING OFF OF WHAT WE HEARD FROM PEOPLE ABOUT.
I WISH I COULD GET MORE ACCESS TO OPPORTUNITIES STUFF TO DO.
SO THIS IS WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO TO REALLY CULTIVATE WITHIN THIS CONVERSATION.
WE'RE ALSO THINKING A LOT ABOUT WHAT YOU HAVE.
THERE ARE BARRIERS IN YOUR PERIOD.
WE CAN KIND OF SIT HERE AT THIS POINT.
[00:45:02]
SO HOW DO WE WORK WITH THAT AND SAY, OKAY, THAT'S GOING TO BE THERE.WHAT CAN WE REPLICATE? WHAT CAN WE PULL THE DIFFERENT AREAS OF THE CITY? HOW CAN WE USE THINGS THAT ARE WORKING FOR YOU, GEOGRAPHIC AAA PRIESTS TO BUILD TRIBAL NETWORKS, THAT ACTIVITY, IF THERE'S A SAY YOU CAN'T USE THOSE AS YOUR BASIS EFFECT.
AND ESPECIALLY IF YOU COMPARE TRANSPORTATION WITH THESE SPACES, YOU CAN CREATE SOME REALLY ENGAGING SPACES WHEN YOU'RE REPLICATING.
THEY'VE GOT THE, CO-OP STARTING TO KIND OF POP UP.
CAN YOU REPLICATE PIECES OF THAT ELSEWHERE? UH, WITHIN, WITHIN A HUNTER, WE'RE KIND OF PULL A LOT OF THIS END.
WE'RE BUILDING DESCRIPTIONS, UH, TALKING ABOUT THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN LEGACY SUBMISSION PERSONS,
UH, AND THEN THINKING ABOUT THOSE OTHER AREAS OF THE CITY, YOU KNOW, YOU'VE GOT YOUR BETA SITE, WHICH WOULD BE KIND OF, UH, UH, PUMPED INTO HER IN THE LAST FEW WEEKS.
UH, AND, UH, AND EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES, WONDERFULLY TALKING WITH A COMPANY TO BUILD, UH, A PLACE WHERE PEOPLE ARE COMMUTING HERE.
THEY'RE GOOD AT BY CHOICE BECAUSE IT HAPPENS, UH, WITH PLATE ITSELF.
WE ARE TRYING TO EMPHASIZE, UH, USE UP AN EASY TO USE DOCUMENT.
WELL, WE'VE GOT DASHBOARDS WE'RE KIND OF USED HERE.
WE KNOW ABOUT A CATEGORY ON ONE OR TWO PAGES.
THAT'S REALLY HELPFUL TO HAVE HELPERS THAT ARE LOOKING TO REPLACE THAT YOUR STAFF, IF YOU DIDN'T TELL THEM WITH SET SOMETHING, BASICALLY A QUICK CLIFFSNOTES VERSION OF WHAT'S IMPORTANT.
SO YOU HEARD THAT TALK ABOUT DOWNTOWN THIS DNA ANALYSIS AND KIND OF A PIECE OF THAT, UH, HOW YOU BREAK THAT DOWN.
I'M GOING TO SHOW YOU EXAMPLES, BRING IT THREE MINUTE, THREE MINUTE WARNING.
SO, UH, SO BASICALLY DON'T BE PHYSICAL COMPARISONS LOOKING AT WHAT CREATES VALUE.
HOW CAN YOU CREATE WORK THAT ALONG THE WAY, COMPARING DOWNTOWN TO THE TYPICAL SUBMISSION, WHAT DOES THAT MAP AND WHAT WAS THAT? WHAT IS THE IMPACT FOR THE EXPERIENCE PEOPLE HAVE IN THIS BOTTOM WEST? THIS SHED NUMBER ONE WAY TO USE, KEEP THIS IN MIND, BECAUSE THIS IS A LITTLE EXPERT.
YOU'RE GOING TO SEE THAT SHOW BACK UP IN THE OVERALL LAND USE DOWNTOWN VISION, FAMILY FRIENDLY ENVIRONMENT, CONNECTED BY SAFE STREETS AND VIBRANT, OR SHOP THE FRONT LOCALLY
SO YOU SEE THE GOALS, THESE FOCUS ON LOTS OF OPTIONS, LOTS OF CONNECTIONS, AND REALLY REACHING THE DESTINATIONS THAT ARE IMPORTANT SO THAT WHEN PEOPLE TURN TO DOWNTOWN OR DOWNTOWN, THEY ARE HERE FOR A WHILE AND HAVING A GREAT TIME OR ENJOYED IT.
AND, UH, AND IT BECOMING A CUTE PIECE OF YOUR ACTIVITY, KIND OF TALKING ABOUT THREE DIFFERENT DISTRICTS WITHIN THIS BUILD TOWN, TOO LONG.
MOST OF THIS OREGON DISTRICT, THIS IS THE OTHER PIECE OF POTATO HISTORY.
AND SHE SOMETIMES GETS INTEREST ALONG WITH WHAT THE CHANNEL IS, SITES.
THIS IS SOME OF THE PRETTY STUFF MENTIONED, PROBABLY DON'T HAVE TIME FOR IT, BUT IF YOU CAN RUN THEM REAL QUICK, AND WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO IS SHOW YOU ALL ON REAL PIECES OF LAND, HOW YOU CAN CREATE DIFFERENT HOUSING PRODUCTS, HOW YOU CAN HIGHLIGHT HENRIETTA HENRIETTA AND MAKE HER LIKE A CELEBRATORY PART OF EAST STREET, UM, THAT IS DESIGNED TO BE EITHER A BOUTIQUE HOTEL OR MAKER SPACE, BUT REALLY CREATING SMALL SPACES.
SO YOU LOWER THE BARRIER OF ENTRY FOR BUSINESSES COMING INTO TOWN.
UM, SOME TOWNHOMES WE'RE SHOWING HOW YOU CAN USE THOSE LOTS TO CREATE THAT THREE, TWO TOWNHOMES TOUGHING AND PARKING ELEVATE THEM ABOVE THE STREET.
CAUSE THEY HAVE FRONT PORCHES OUT FRONT, UM, KEEP ON CHANCE THE NEXT ONES THAT SHOWS KIND OF JUST A HIGHLIGHT OF IT.
UM, THE BIGGEST ONE WAS THE AUSTIN STREET AREA.
AND WE WERE SHOWING THAT YOU COULD GET A WIDE VARIETY OF BUILDING TYPES.
THE NEXT ONE ACTUALLY IS, AND WHY PRIDE, PRIMARY BUILDING PARK TYPES THAT ARE FRONTED ON PARKS CALLED POCKET NEIGHBORHOODS.
UH, WE RECREATED THE STREET NETWORKS.
YOU ACTUALLY HAVE A BRILLIANT NETWORK OF STREETS SO THAT IT DISPERSES TRAFFIC EVENLY.
YOU DON'T HAVE ONE WAY IN ONE WAY OUT A TINY HOUSE COURT.
SO SOME OF THESE ARE SMALLER LOTS AND IT CREATES A REALLY INTERESTING BUILDING TYPE IN HOUSING TYPE.
SO ANYWAYS, THAT WAS QUICK DESCRIPTION, BUT THERE'S A LOT OF ALL RIGHT.
SO WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?
[00:50:01]
SOME,AND THEN APPROVALS FOR THE SUMMER SUMMER BRIDGE.
THAT'S THE CHANCE TO GET A GREAT JOB AND, UH, FORT WORTH FOR THE COUNCIL AND FOR THE PUBLIC.
HAVE WE ONLY SLOTTED THEM OR A LOT OF THEM 15 MINUTES, BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BE TALKING ABOUT THIS AND HAVING TO MAKE A DECISION AT THE NEXT COUNCIL.
YOU KNOW, YOU'RE GONNA HAVE MORE OPPORTUNITIES TO HEAR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE COMP PLAN, BUT WE DID WANT TO SHOOT MORNING IN TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF WHAT'S BEEN GOING ON.
SO THANK YOU, BUT NOTHING ELSE.
SO DURING THE MEETING AT 6:56 PM,
