UNLESS YOU'RE WANTING TO STAY AND SPEAK ON A SPECIFIC ITEM YOU CAN SPEAK DURING CITIZEN COMMENTS. YOU HAVE OPPORTUNITY, EVERYONE SHOULD BE ABLE TO SPEAK BUT THIS IS JUST A TRIAL.

[7.1. 2022 City Services & Culture Survey Presentation of Results. (Allison Strupeck)]

RESULTS. >> GOOD EVENING FOR THE RECORD ALLISON DIRECTOR OF COMMUNICATIONS.

AS YOU KNOW LAST YEAR WE DID CONTRACT WITH ATC INSTITUTE TO CONDUCT A COMMUNITY SURVEY. IT WAS HER FIRST SURVEY IN SEVERAL YEARS AND WHILE HE DID PRIMARILY FOCUS ON CITY SERVICES AND PROGRAMS. ALSO LOOK TO ISSUES AROUND DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION AT THE REQUEST OF THE DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION COMMISSION. WHILE THE STATE HAS BEEN AVAILABLE TO THE COUNCIL AND STAFF FOR SEVERAL MONTHS NOW AND WE'VE ALREADY BEEN LOOKING AT IT AND SEEN WHAT QUICK PIVOTS WE CAN MAKE TO BE MORE RESPONSIVE TO THIS DATA.

THIS WAS TIME THIS EVENING TO MAKE SURE THIS DATA IS AT THE TOP OF YOUR MINDS AS YOU ENTER INTO YOUR STRATEGIC PLANNING PHASE COMING RIGHT UP. THIS DATA IS INTENDED TO HELP YOU FORM THE MORE SHORT-TERM DECISIONS OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF YEARS WHERE THIS COMMUNITY SURVEY THAT WE DID FOR THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN OR HUTTO 2040 THOSE WERE TO MAKE THE LONG-RANGE DECISIONS REGARDING DONE.

WITHOUT FOR THE DO I WOULD LOVE TO WELCOME UP THE PROJECT MANAGER FROM ATC INSTITUTE. MS. ESTHER CAMPBELL, ESTHER CAME IN FROM KANSAS. SHOULD THERE BE A TORNADO WARNING TONIGHT, JUST FOLLOW ESTHER.

SPINNAKER HOPE NOT. >> THINK EVERYBODY YOU CANNOT BE FROM KANSAS AND NOT RECEIVED TORNADO JOKES, DOROTHY JOKES, TOTO JOKES, ANYTHING LIKE THAT. MY NAME IS ESTHER CAMPBELL AND PROJECT MANAGER OF ATC INSTITUTE AND THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME TODAY. I WAS HIRED ALMOST A YEAR AGO AND I HAVE 70 MEETINGS GREAT MEETINGS WITH THE CITY STAFF AND I FEEL LIKE I REALLY KNOW HUTTO HAVING THE SURVEY RESULTS I FEEL LIKE ALREADY KNOW YOU SO IT'S KINDA WEIRD TO COME TO A PLACE THAT YOU KIND OF EARLY NO I FEEL LIKE A VERY BEEN HERE BUT IT'S A BEAUTIFUL CITY SO MUCH POTENTIAL EVERYBODY HAS BEEN SO WELCOMING AND I THINK CENSUS IS PUBLIC IT'S REALLY GREAT AND IMPORTANT FOR THE PUBLIC TO KNOW HOW INVESTED THE CITY MANAGER IS ALLISON AND HER CREW AND ALL THE DEPARTMENT THAT I'VE TALKED TO IS BEEN NOTHING BUT A GREAT RESPONSE FROM THEM AS SOON AS THEY GOT THE DATA THEY ARE READY TO GET THEIR FEET ON THE GROUND AND GO RUNNING. I WANT THE PUBLIC AND YOU ALL TO KNOW THAT THERE IS SOME WONDERFUL PEOPLE ON THE CITY STAFF AS I'M SURE YOU ALL KNOW BUT THEY ARE FOR THE RESIDENTS PRE-DTC INSTITUTE WE'VE BEEN AROUND SINCE 1982 WE HAVE HAD A FEW CLIENTS HERE AND THERE SO THIS IS DEFINITELY A CITY WHERE I KNOW THE HEARTS ARE FOR THE PEOPLE.

TODAY I'M GOOD TO GO TO AN OVERVIEW OF WHO ET CNC TWO IS

[00:15:05]

I'M GETTING OVER THE SURVEY PURPOSE AND METHODOLOGY I WANT TO GO OVER SOME PERCEPTIONS THAT WE FOUND ON THE SURVEY I WENT AHEAD ON DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION AND GO OVER THE SURVEY FINDINGS AND THAT I HAVE RECOMMENDATIONS. AS I SAID BEFORE DTC INSTITUTE FOUNDED IN 1982 WE'VE BEEN AROUND FOR 40 YEARS WE ARE BASED IN KANSAS CITY THAT'S WHERE OUR HEADQUARTERS IS THAT WE HAVE CLIENTS ALL OVER THE UNITED STATES.

I FORGOT TO SAY GO CHIEFS. I HEAR WE HAVE A CHIEFS FAN HERE. GO CHEESE.

WHAT WE DO WE DESIGN AND ADMINISTER RESEARCHER GOVERNMENT ORGANIZATIONS THE TYPES OF SURVEYS ARE CUSTOMER SATISFACTION, EMPLOYEE SURVEYS, FOCUS GROUPS AND WE DO PARKS AND VAX NEEDS ASSESSMENT AND THAT'S THE COMMUNITY RESEARCH DEPARTMENT WHERE I WORK IN, WE ALSO HAVE TRANSIT DEPARTMENT WHERE WE DO ON BOARD SURVEYS AND OTHER THINGS.

OUR MISSION, WE WANT TO HELP GOVERNMENT AGENCIES LIKE YOURSELF WE WANT TO MAKE DATA-DRIVEN DECISIONS WE CONDUCT THE SURVEY A STATISTICALLY VALID SURVEY AND WE WILL HELP YOU MAKE DECISIONS BASED OFF OF THAT STATISTICALLY VALID SURVEY AND I'LL GET INTO WHAT THAT MEANS IN A SECOND.

OUR CLIENTS RANGE ALL THE WAY FROM CALIFORNIA TO NEW YORK.

FROM WEST COAST TO EAST COAST SINCE 2015 WE HAVE DONE WELL OVER A THOUSAND PROJECTS AND SOME OF THE CLIENTS THAT WE WORKED WITH OUR LOYAL CLIENTS THAT WE DO A SURVEY ANNUALLY OR EVERY TWO YEARS. WE HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF A HISTORY WITH TEXAS. TEXAS IS ONE OF THOSE STATES.

A COUPLE OF STATES THAT WE HAVE WHERE WE JUST REALLY CLEAN THEIR IN TEXAS IS ONE OF THEM, TEXAS, NORTH CAROLINA ARE TWO OF THE BIGGEST WE HAVE THE MOST CLIENTS.

AS YOU CAN SEE THIS IS A LIST OF SOME OF THE COMMUNITIES THAT WE CONDUCTED COMMUNITY SURVEYS FOR. THIS IS NOT THE WHOLE LIST BUT A COUPLE THAT ARE RIGHT NEXT DOOR, AUSTIN, ROUND ROCK, WE WORKED IN DALLAS, SAN ANTONIO, AMARILLO, FORT WORTH, HOUSTON WE'VE WORKED PRETTY MUCH ALL OVER THE STATE. I WANT YOU TO TAKE NOTE.

A LOT OF THE COMMUNITIES HAVING JUST ON ONE SURVEY WE'VE DONE MULTIPLE PROJECTS. IT'S REALLY COOL TO COME BACK AND SEE HOW THEY'VE GROWN IN USER DATA.

THE SURVEY PURPOSE, THERE IS TWO PARTS OF IT WE WANTED TO ASK ABOUT CITY SERVICES SPECIFICALLY RIGHT BELOW THE SATISFACTION WITH THE CITY SERVICES BUT ALSO A PART WITH THE DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION COMMISSION WE WANT TO ASK QUESTIONS FOR THAT.

WE BEGIN THE SURVEY BEFORE THE SUMMER OF 2022.

I WAS WITH ALLISON COMMUNICATIONS TEAM AND WE DESIGNED THE SURVEY THAT CONSISTED OF A COVER LETTER THE SURVEY INSTRUMENT WHICH HAD ALL THE QUESTIONS AND THEN WE MAILED OUT TO A RANDOM SELECTED HOUSEHOLDS IN HUTTO.

THIS IS ADDRESS SPACE WE HAVE ALL THE ADDRESS OF HUTTO AND WE MAILED A RANDOM SAMPLE THEY COULD TAKE THE SURVEY BY MAIL ONLINE OR IF THEY NEEDED TO CALL THEY COULD CALL TOLL-FREE AND THEY CAN TAKE IT OVER THE PHONE IF THEY NEEDED TRANSLATION SERVICES WE ALSO PROVIDED THAT AS WELL IF THEY CALLED IN CREED WE ALSO DID FOLLOW COMMUNICATIONS.

IF YOU LIKE ME I'M TERRIBLE AT OPENING MY MAIL SO WE MADE SURE TO FOLLOW UP WITH THE FOLKS THAT WE SAW DID NOT RESPOND AND WE FOLLOWED UP THEIR POSTCARD, TEXT MESSAGE, E-MAIL AND ALSO SOCIAL MEDIA ADVERTISING AS WELL. WERE ALWAYS DOING SOMETHING ON THE BACKEND TO VERIFY IT IS A RANDOM SAMPLE.

IT REQUIRED RESIDENTS TO PUT IN THE ADDRESS AT THE END OF THE SURVEY AND WE WOULD VERIFY THAT WITH A RANDOM SAMPLE.

WE GOT 401 COMPLETED SURVEYS WHICH GAVE US A MARGIN OF ERROR OF PLUS OR MINUS 4.8% AT THE 95% LEVEL OF CONFIDENCE AND NOT TO TALK ABOUT STATISTICS AT 7:00 P.M. BUT WHAT THAT MEANS IF WE WERE TO DO THE SURVEY 100 TIMES 95 OF THE TIMES ARE GOOD TO GET THE SAME RESULTS OF PLUS OR MINUS 4.8 VARIANCE IT IS VALID AND IS VERY ACCEPTABLE MARGIN OF ERROR.

STATISTICAL VALIDITY I SAY THAT AND WHAT DOES THAT MEAN.

THAT MEANS THAT THE DATA WE ARE GETTING NOT ONLY DO WE WANT TO GET THE MARGIN OF ERROR BUT WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WE HAVE A REPRESENTATION OF THE COMMUNITY WE DON'T WANT TO GET 400 SURVEYS WE WANT TO MAKE SURE 400 REPRESENT THE COMMUNITY OF HUTTO NOT THE COMMUNITY OF AMERICA BUT HUTTO WE USE THE CENSUS DATA, THE 2020 CENSUS DATA AND WE WILL MATCH THE GENDER IN THE RACE

[00:20:05]

, YEARS LIVED IN HUTTO WE ALSO GREAT REPRESENTATION OF FOLKS THAT ARE BEEN HERE FOR LESS THAN 10 YEARS.

AND ALSO FOLKS THAT HAVE BEEN HERE FOR 11 OR MORE YEARS.

I THINK THAT IS SIGNIFICANT BECAUSE AS WE KNOW WE HAVE GROWN A LOT IN THE LAST 10 OR 20 YEARS.

WE HAVE GREAT REPRESENTATION OF FOLKS THAT ARE BEEN HERE FOR A WHILE IN THE NEWER FOLKS. LAST DEMOGRAPHICS QUESTION WAS THE HOUSEHOLD TYPE. IF YOU SEE HERE THE SURVEY IS A RED BAR, HUTTO IS THE BLUE BAR NECK AND NECK WE ARE GETTING A REPRESENTED TATIAN OF HOUSEHOLDS 10 - 14 OR 15 - 1910 AND OLDER AS WELL. AS I SAID BEFORE WE WENT TO MAKE SURE WE GOT LOCATION IF YOU SEE THE LITTLE RED DOT THIS REFERS TO A COMPLETED SURVEY IN THIS IS TO THE BLOCK NUMBER THIS IS NOT THE EXACT RESIDENCE WE DO WANT TO RESPECT RESIDENTS AND KEEP THE NON- ENMITY. SOME SOME PERCEPTIONS.

THERE IS NOT TO BE MUCH THE PRICE TO LIVE AND RAISE CHILDREN AND ALSO 71% OF RESIDENTS THINK THE CITY PROVIDES A SAFE ENVIRONMENT FOR RESIDENTS FROM ALL BACKGROUNDS.

RESIDENTS LOVE LIVING HERE FOR THOSE REASONS.

BUT I WANTED TO BRING UP WHAT ABOUT SINGLES.

WHEN WE LOOK AT THE DATA IT'S A GREAT PLACE TO RAISE CHILDREN IT'S A GREAT PLACE TO LIVE. 34% OF RESIDENTS SAY THEY THINK OUT IS A EXCELLENT OR GOOD PLACE IF YOU ARE SINGLE, WHAT ABOUT WORK THE FOLKS THINKS THIS IS A GOOD PLACE TO WORK.

IN THE DATA WE SAW 54% OF RESIDENTS SAY IT'S AN EXCELLENT PLACE TO START A BUSINESS OR TO GROW A BUSINESS IN HUTTO.

THE MAJORITY THINK IT'S A GREAT PLACE AND 52% THINK IT'S A GREAT PLACE TO RETIRE WHICH I WOULD RETIRE HERE, IT'S NICE AND QUIET. YOU KNOW.

42% ALSO THINK IT'S AN EXCELLENT PLACE TO WORK.

NEXT SLIDE THIS IS A BENCHMARK ONE THING THAT WE DO DIFFERENTLY THAN SOME OTHER MARKET RESEARCH FIRMS, WE HAVE BENCHMARKS WHAT THIS IS IS FROM THE NATIONAL COMMUNITY SURVEY THAT WE CONDUCTED ANNUALLY, THIS GIVES US THE CAPABILITY OF LOOKING AT YOUR DATA AND HOW DO I STACK UP REGIONALLY AND HOW DO WE STACK UP NATIONALLY. THE GOOD THING ABOUT THIS, WHAT HELPS US. I DON'T KNOW MY RESULTS IF THEY'RE GOOD OR BAD THIS HELPS US TO SEE WHERE DO I STACK UP AGAINST OTHER COMMUNITIES. IF WE SEE HERE WHERE WE SCORE HIGH AS A PLACE TO LIVE IN A PLACE TO RAISE CHILDREN WERE WELL OVER THE REGIONAL AND NATIONAL AVERAGES HOWEVER, WHEN WE LOOK AT THE BOTTOM TO THE OVERALL VALUE THAT YOU RECEIVED FOR YOUR CITY TAXES AND FEES AND HOW WELL THE CITY IS MANAGING GROWTH, ONE OUT OF FOUR RESIDENTS THINK IT IS AN EXCELLENT OR A GOOD PLACE FOR THOSE THINGS.

THAT GIVES US WHERE ARE WE COMPARED TO OTHERS AND WAITED WE NEED TO GO FROM HERE. DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION, AS I SAID BEFORE A PORTION OF THE SURVEY WHERE WE WANTED TO SEE HOW DIVERSE, DO YOU FEEL INCLUSIVITY HERE, I KNOW THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ALL AND VERY IMPORTANT TO THE COMMISSION AND TO THE CITY. WE SEE HERE FROM WHAT WE GET FROM THE WHOLE ENTIRE SURVEY FOLKS FEEL INCLUSIVITY IS DIVERSE. I THINK THAT'S REALLY WHAT SET YOU GUYS APART. IF YOU LOOK AT 71% OF RESIDENTS AGREE REALLY FEEL THE TOP 171% AGREE THAT THE CITY PROVIDES A

[00:25:06]

IF YOU LOOK TUMOR DOWN THE CITY VALUES RESIDENTS FROM DIVERSE BACKGROUND. NOT ONLY IS THIS A PLACE YOU ARE ATTRACTING FOLKS YOU ARE MAKING RESIDENTS FROM ALL BACKGROUNDS FEEL LIKE THEY ARE OF VALUE AND NOT JUST A NUMBER OR WHATEVER.

BUT THEY ARE A VALUE TO YOU. I THINK THAT SPEAKS REALLY HIGHLY OF THE CITY LEADERS AND OFFICIALS.

NEXT DO WE THINK THE CITY IS MOVING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION IN AN EFFORT TO MAKE A CITY A DIVERSE PLACE TO WORK, LIVE IN ALSO TO VISIT. WE SEE THAT 48% OF FOLKS SAY YES THE CITY IS MOVING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.

11% SAY NO. WE HAVE 41% SAY I'M NOT SURE.

I WANT TO SAY WHENEVER I TALKED TO THE COMMISSION I WANT TO SAY THIS MIGHT LOOK DISCOURAGING BUT I WANT YOU TO SEE THIS IS REALLY ENCOURAGING. I KNOW THIS INITIATIVE IS RATHER NEW. I DON'T KNOW THE FULL STORY BUT I KNOW IT IS RATHER NEW BREED WHAT YOU'VE DONE SO FAR.

48% OF RESIDENTS SAY YOU ARE MOVING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.

41% OF FOLKS SAY I'M NOT SURE. USUALLY THAT IS A TALL TALE SIGN THEY JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING.

THAT IS A COMMUNICATION THING. AS YOU DO WHAT YOU DO AND KEEP PROGRESSING IN THAT THE RESIDENTS WILL SEE THAT AND THAT YES IS GOING TO GROW. THIS IS NOT DISCOURAGING THAT WERE BELOW 50%, YES. IT'S NO, WHAT YOU'VE DONE SO FAR, 48% ARE SAYING YES YOU'RE MOVING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION, THE 40% ARE FOLKS WE NEED TO TELL THEM WHAT'S GOING ON IN MAKE IT KNOWN THAT WE DO VALUE YOU AND WE WANT DIVERSE BACKGROUNDS TO BE HERE. WE'RE GOING TO JUMP IN TO THE MAJOR SURVEY FINDINGS PRETTY AGAIN WERE LOOKING AT THE BENCHMARKS HERE. THESE ARE MAJOR CATEGORIES OF CITY SERVICES AND IF YOU SEE THE TOP FIVE OUT OF THE FIVE, OUT OF THE EIGHT SERVICES THAT WE COULD ANALYZE YOU ALL SCORED WELL OVER THE NATIONAL AND REGIONAL AVERAGE AND FIVE OF THOSE FREEZES SOLID WASTE SERVICES I KNOW YOU DON'T DIRECTLY HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH IT BUT YOU HIRE THE PEOPLE TO DO THAT.

THEY'RE DOING A REALLY GREAT JOB FOR THE LIBRARY SERVICES, GREAT NUMBERS, STORMWATER MANAGEMENT AND MAINTENANCE OF CITY STREETS, MAINTENANCE OF SIDEWALKS AND NO SURPRISE FLOW OF TRAFFIC ARE A LITTLE BIT BELOW THE REGIONAL AND NATIONAL AVERAGE.

>> AND I INTERRUPT YOU FOR ONE MOMENT.

I JUST WANT TO LET YOU ALL KNOW OUR EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT IS TRACKING THE STORM PRETTY DOES APPEAR THERE IS SOME POSSIBLE ROTATION IN CENTRAL GEORGETOWN. IT DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE MOVING ON DIRECTION AT THIS POINT TIME. IT APPEARS TO BE MOVING TOWARD GRANGER. I WANTED TO PASS THAT ALONG WE ARE WATCHING THE WEATHER KEEPING UPDATES LIVE.

>> THINK USER. >> NO SURPRISE HERE WE ASKED WHICH OF THE MAJOR CITY SERVICES ARE IMPORTANT TO RESIDENTS THEY COULD PICK THE TOP FOUR. THE DIFFERENT COLORS AS A FIRST CHOICE, SECOND CHOICE, SO ONE. NO SURPRISE THE TOP THREE MOST IMPORTANT IS THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC ON ROADS, MAJOR ROADS, HIGHWAYS AND ON CITY STREETS IN THE THIRD WAS MAINTENANCE OF CITY STREETS THOSE OF THE TOP THREE I DON'T THINK WERE VERY SURPRISED ABOUT IT. IF YOU LOOK BELOW THE THREE ON THE BOTTOM ONE OUT OF FOUR RESIDENTS A WATER UTILITY SERVICES, PARKS, TRAILS AND RECREATIONAL FACILITIES IN THE EFFECTIVENESS OF CITY COMMUNICATION ARE ALSO IMPORTANT, THIS DOES NOT MEAN YOU'RE DOING POORLY.

IT JUST WHAT'S IMPORTANT TO RESIDENTS RIGHT NOW.

NEXT WE LOOKED AT WATER AND UTILITY SERVICES.

AS YOU CAN SEE HERE THE TRASH CURBSIDE ALL OF THAT WOULD REALLY, REALLY WELL. WHAT IS INTERESTING IS THE BOTTOM THREE COMEDIES OF THE LOWEST SATISFIED AND WE ALSO RATE BELOW THE REGIONAL AND NATIONAL AVERAGE IN THE TASTE AND ALSO THE FEES OF WASTEWATER SERVICES AND WATER SERVICES.

THAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT RIGHT NOW ARE THE FEES IN THE TASTE.

AS I KNOW AND I'VE LEARNED HOW TO I DO UNDERSTAND THAT THE FEES ARE A LITTLE BIT HIGHER BREED WE DID BREAK IT OUT TOHO IS YOUR WATER AND UTILITY SERVICES. THERE IS THE INFORMATION WHERE WE CAN SEE WHO HAS WHAT SERVICE, MAINTENANCE SERVICES.

DOING REALLY WELL WITH THE CONDITION OF STREET SIGNS, MAINTENANCE SIGNS OF CITY BUILDINGS CLEANING THE STREETS AND SIDEWALKS. CONDITION OF PAVEMENT MARKINGS ON STREETS. REALLY GREAT NUMBERS HERE.

FOR YOU WHILE COMPARED TO THE REGIONAL AND NATIONAL AVERAGE.

I LOVE WHENEVER I SEE THESE NUMBERS AND GET TO DRIVE HERE

[00:30:04]

REALLY GREAT NUMBERS HERE. IMPORTANCE, 69% OF RESIDENTS SAY THE CONDITION OF STREETS AND SIDEWALKS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT. IF YOU LOOK AT THE TOP TWO CHOICES, THE FIRST IS THE GRAY BOX, THAT IS THE FIRST CHOICE.

THAT IS OVERWHELMINGLY OVER 50%, THE MAJORITY OF FOLKS CHOSE CONDITION OF STREETS AND SIDEWALKS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD AS THE TOP NUMBER ONE FIRST CHOICE MOST IMPORTANT TO THEM PEOPLE HE SERVICES HERE. REALLY GREAT NUMBERS HERE AS YOU CAN SEE. POLICE SERVICES, YOU ALL ARE KILLING IT. THIS IS SOMETHING WE'VE SEEN OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS AS A DECLINE IN SATISFACTION WITH POLICE SERVICES. SO THIS IS REALLY COOL TO SEE THAT THEY ARE REALLY DOING GREAT THINGS AND COMPARED TO REGIONAL AND NATIONAL AVERAGES THESE ARE REALLY FABULOUS NUMBERS.

WE RECEIVE MOST IMPORTANT POLICE SERVICES THE VISIBILITY AND EFFORTS BY POLICE TO PREVENT CRIME THOSE WILL BE THE TOP TWO MOST IMPORTANT TO RESIDENTS THOSE ARE ONE AND THE SAME AS WELL IF FOLKS SEE POLICE IN THE NEIGHBORHOODS THEY ARE MAKING AN EFFORT TO PREVENT CRIME THOSE ARE ONE AND THE TWO OF THE SAME THIS IS VISIBILITY AND POLICING NEIGHBORHOODS OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS CREEP UP AS MOST IMPORTANT AS FOLKS ARE WORKING FROM HOME OR THEY WERE FOR A TIME. I HAD TIME TO WALK AND SEE IF THERE'S A POLICE OFFICER IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD WHEREAS BEFORE I WAS AT THE OFFICE AND I COULD CARE LESS BECAUSE I'M AT THE OFFICE. THAT WAS SOMETHING THAT WE SEE, NO SURPRISE THERE FOR US. GIVE INDICATION SERVICES, REALLY GREAT JOB HERE. I DID WANT TO POINT OUT THE AVAILABILITY OF COMMUNICATION SERVICES IT IS NOT KIDNAPPED WITH THE REGIONAL AVERAGE THAT'S NOT REALLY SIGNIFICANT LIKE IT'S ABOUT THING. WITH AVAILABILITY THIS IS IMPORTANT AND WE ASK QUESTIONS LATER WHERE ARE FOLKS GOING FOR THE INFORMATION AND NOT JUST WHERE ARE THEY GOING BUT WHERE THEY PREFER TO GO FOR EXAMPLE I MIGHT PREFER TO GO TO THE NEWSPAPER BUT YOU DON'T POST ANYTHING IN THE NEWSPAPER SO YOU MAKE ME GO TO FACEBOOK. IT'S JUST SILLY EXAMPLES.

JUST KNOWING WHERE THEY CAN GET THE INFORMATION.

AND ALSO WHAT ARE WE PUTTING OUT THERE AS WELL SOMETIMES ARE PUTTING THINGS I DO HAVE TO SAY I'M A MEMBER AND I GET ALERTS ALL THE TIME FROM YOUR COMMITTEE CASE AND TEAM IN ONE OF MY TOP CLIENTS THAT ARE ALWAYS POSTING STUFF.

I THINK YOU'RE COMMUNICATING VERY WELL SO THAT IS WHAT WHAT ARE WE COMMUNICATING AND WHAT DOES THE COMMUNITY WANT TO SEE AFTER PRE-OVERALL USEFULNESS OF THE CITY WEBSITE THE USE OF THE SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNTS AND EFFORTS TO KEEP RESIDENTS INFORMED OF LOCAL ISSUES. YOU ARE DOING A GREAT JOB, KEEP DOING WHAT YOU'RE DOING THAT WE CAN ALWAYS REFINE AND WE WILL SEE THAT IN A BIT WITH ANALYSIS THAT I DID.

MOST IMPORTANT COMMUNICATION SERVICES TO RESIDENTS THEIR EFFORTS TO KEEP RESIDENTS INFORMED, KEEPING THEM INFORMED AND ALSO THE AVAILABILITY OF INFORMATION MAKE SURE THE INFORMATION IS OUT THERE ABOUT CITY SERVICES AND PROGRAMS FOR THE RESIDENCE. SO THIS GOES BACK TO WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT BEFORE WE WANTED TO KNOW WHERE FOLKS WERE GOING THEY ARE MOST LIKELY GOING OVER THE MAJORITY OVER 50% OF RESIDENTS ARE GOING TO THE COMMUNITY IMPACT NEWSLETTER THEY'RE GOING TO THE WEBSITE AND USING THE E-NEWS LETTER CITY FACEBOOK AND THIS MAKES ME CRINGE A LITTLE BIT ABOUT 39% ARE USING WORD-OF-MOUTH WE DON'T REALLY LIKE THAT BUT THAT'S JUST HOW IT IS. THAT'S ALSO ATTENTION AND SOMETHING THAT YOU HAVE TO COMBAT WITH THE COMMITTEE CASE AND WE ARE ALSO WORKING WITH WORD-OF-MOUTH AND WHO HERE ALWAYS GETS IT RIGHT. THAT IS SOMETHING THAT I'VE BEEN IN COMMUNITIES WITH US NUMBER ONE AND THAT SCARES ME.

I ASK WHAT IS YOUR MOST PREFERRED INFORMATION SOURCE, THIS GOES BACK TO WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT WHAT I USE MY NOT BE PREFERRED, COMMUNITY IMPACT, NEWSPAPER 58% SAY THAT THAT IS THE MOST PREFERRED INFORMATION SOURCE FOLLOWED BY THE WEBSITE, HEY HUTTO IN THE CITY'S OFFICIAL FACEBOOK, THOSE OF THE TOP FOUR MOST PREFERRED INFORMATION SOURCES.

CODE ENFORCEMENT. THIS IS ACTUALLY VERY NORMAL AND VERY GOOD. CODE ENFORCEMENT HERE AND FORCING THE EXTERIOR MAINTENANCE OF THE COMMERCIAL PROPERTY AND ASSIGN REGULATIONS PRIVATE MAINTENANCE OF PRIVATE PROPERTY

[00:35:04]

PARKS AND RECREATION FACILITIES WE WILL SEE HERE THIS IS THE READING SATISFACTION OF THE PARTICULAR FACILITY THAT WE SEE.

AND HERE AS I WAS GOING BACK OVER YOUR DATA A LITTLE BIT, IF YOU SEE THE FIRST CLUE COLUMN THOSE ARE THE RESPONSES, THE MIDDLE IS NEUTRAL SO THE NOT SATISFIED OR DISSATISFIED IN THE RED IS GOING TO BE OR DISSATISFIED RATINGS.

USUALLY WHEN WE SEE THOSE ARE HIGH NEUTRAL RESPONSES AND USUALLY WHEN WE SEE NEUTRAL RESPONSE THEY EITHER JUST DON'T HAVE AN OPINION, THEY JUST DON'T HAVE AN OPINION OR THEY CAN GIVE AN OPINION BECAUSE THEY DON'T USE THE FACILITY AND THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS SO THEY CAN'T GIVE AN OPINION.

THESE ARE REALLY HOT SO I WAS JUST THINKING IT WOULD BE INTERESTING TO KNOW WHO IS USING THESE FACILITIES IN THE PERCENTAGE OF THE RESIDENCE USING THESE FACILITIES BECAUSE WE HAVE A HIGH NEUTRAL. THERE ARE FOLKS THAT AREN'T USING IT OR USING OTHER FACILITIES.

IT WOULD BE REALLY INTERESTING TO KNOW THAT BUT WE SEE THE OVERALL MAINTENANCE OF CITY PARKS IS THE HIGHEST SATISFIED AND WE SEE HI DISSATISFIED AT THE BOTTOM OUTDOOR SPLASH PANS, DOG PARKS 29% ARE DISSATISFIED WITH THE DOG PARKS IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY IN OUR GIS MAPPING THE NORTHERN PART OF THE CITY.

THEY ARE DISSATISFIED ABOUT NOT HAVING DOG PARKS OR NOT ENOUGH.

THAT'S REALLY COOL WE HAVE INFORMATION LIKE THAT WERE WE CAN TELL YOU WHERE FOLKS ARE SATISFIED OR NOT SATISFIED PRE-PICNIC TABLE, SHELTERS, BATHROOMS, TRAIL CONNECTIVITY IS A BIG ONE BUT THAT'S ALSO A NATIONAL TREND THAT WE SEE WITH THE COMMUNITIES I COMPLETED A PROJECT FOR THE CITY OF THE PARKS AND REX NEEDS ASSESSMENT AND THEIR WANTING TO HAVE A CONNECTIVITY AND THAT'S ALL OVER THE NATION, 28% ARE DISSATISFIED THERE AND THE QUALITY OF WALKING AND BIKING TRAILS, NEXT WAS A PROGRAM. AGAIN WE SEE A REALLY HIGH NEUTRAL. NOT MANY PEOPLE USE PROGRAMS AS IT IS SO IT WOULD BE REALLY INTERESTING TO SEE WHAT WE HAVE NOW AND WHAT ARE FOLKS USING AND WHAT DO THEY ACTUALLY NEED.

THERE IS VERY HIGH DISSATISFACTION WITH SENIOR RECREATION PROGRAMS WITH GARDENING AND ADULT ATHLETIC PROGRAMS. WE SEE HERE, 79% OF RESIDENTS SAY IT'S IMPORTANT TO HAVE HIGH QUALITY PARKS AND RECREATION.

IT'S TELLING ME THERE IS A TORNADO OR BAD WEATHER IN HUTTO.

IT'S IMPORTANT THAT THE CITY PROVIDES HIGH-QUALITY PARKS, RECREATION PROGRAM AND FACILITIES SO WE SEE 79% ALMOST 80% OF RESIDENTS SAY IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WE SEE THE SATISFACTION NUMBERS THIS IS WHAT GOT ME ON THE TRAIL WERE SEEING THE SATISFACTION NUMBERS AREN'T HIGH BUT WE HAVE A HIGH NEUTRAL. IT MAKES ME THINK THERE'S STUFF FOR THE FORECASTLE HOUSE OVERNIGHT USING.

THAT'S WHAT GOT ME DOWN THAT RABBIT TRAIL ON THE 5:00 A.M.

FLIGHT FROM KANSAS CITY. THEY THINK IT'S A VERY HIGH IMPORTANCE IN THIS IS WHAT GOT ME ON THE TRAIL.

WHAT LEVEL OF AGREEMENT DO YOU HAVE THAT THE CITY OF HUTTO PARKS AND RECREATION FACILITIES ARE MEETING WITH MY EXPEC EXPECTATIONS, WE SEE 38 AND 39% AGREE WITH THAT STATEMENT.

ONE OUT OF THREE RESIDENTS AGREE BUT THEN YOU HAVE A 41% BETTER NEUTRAL, THAT GOES BACK AND DON'T HAVE AN OPINION AND DON'T KNOW WHAT'S OUT THERE. AND THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY NEED AS WELL. AND THAT'S WHERE WE SEE THE 41% IS NEUTRAL AND THAT'S WHERE WE SEE THE 20% DISAGREE THAT THE CITY IS PROVIDING THOSE PROGRAMS AND FACILITIES THAT MEET THE EXPECTATION, OTHER FINDINGS THAT WE SAW, I WOULD GO BACK HERE THIS IS TALKING ABOUT THE TREE CANOPY LET ME GO BACK A COUPLE OF SLIDES. YOU LOOK AT THE 61 DOWN TREE

[00:40:02]

NEXT IS LIBRARY SERVICES. REALLY GREAT NUMBERS HERE YOU SEE NO RED REALLY ANYBODY IS DISSATISFIED WITH THE LIBRARY SERVICES. REALLY GREAT NUMBERS HERE FOR THE HIGHEST IS FRIENDLY FACILITY ACCESSIBILITY THAT IS SUPER IMPORTANT HIGH SATISFACTION COULD WE SEE THE LOWEST SATISFACTION IS AVAILABILITY OF STUDY ROOMS AS YOU ALL ARE GETTING MORE OF THE YOUNGER CROWD COMING IN HERE.

COLLEGE STUDENTS CANNOT AFFORD TO LIVE IN AUSTIN WITH HIS OTHER AREAS OF THE LIVING HERE READ WE CAN SEE POSSIBLY THE AVAILABILITY OF STUDY ROOMS BEING SOMETHING THAT IS NEEDED HOWEVER, THAT GOES TO ACCOUNT I DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU LIBRARY FACILITIES LOOK LIKE. I HAVE NOT HAD THE GRAND TOUR YET BUT THAT COULD BE SOMETHING THAT WE COULD SEE LATER IN THE FUTURE. WE ASKED THE QUESTION HOW SUPPORTIVE WOULD YOU BE OF THE CITY IN RUSTY CREEK AMPHITHEATER. WE SEE 48.4% ARE IN SUPPORT OF THAT. WE SEE 31% ARE NEUTRAL SO THEY DON'T REALLY HAVE AN OPINION AND 20% ARE NOT SUPPORTIVE, AGAIN THE 31% ARE FOLKS THAT DON'T HAVE AN OPINION OR THEY DID MORE INFORMATION BEFORE THEY CAN MAKE A SOLID DO I SUPPORT INVESTING IN THE OR NOT. SOME RECOMMENDATIONS.

ONE THING THAT WE DO FOR OUR CLIENTS, THIS IS CALLED THE IMPORTANT SATISFACTION ANALYSIS, ARITY TALK THIS THROUGH WITH EACH DEPARTMENT AS WELL WE HAVE MAJOR CATEGORIES OF SERVICES THIS IS LIKE THE BIG UMBRELLA. WHAT THIS DOES I JUST FLOODED YOU WITH INFORMATION AND HAVE ANNOYED YOU WHAT TO DO OR WHERE TO START. THIS IS WHERE WE GET YOU TO START AND THIS PRIORITIZES THINGS INTO RESIDENCE IN THE SATISFACTION PERCENT, IF YOU SEE THE FIRST COLUMN THAT'S GOOD TO BE YOUR SERVICE AND HAVE THE MOST IMPORTANT PERCENT AS A SECOND AND THE FOURTH COLUMN IS YOUR SATISFACTION PERCENT.

WHAT YOU GET TO SEE THE HIGHER THE IMPORTANCE AND THE LOWER THE SATISFACTION THE HIGHER IT'S GOOD TO BE ON THE LIST.

THEN IT PRIORITIZES A VERY HIGH PRIORITY AND A HIGH PRIORITY IN THIS IS A MEDIUM PRIORITY. A VERY HIGH PRIORITY IS SOMETHING THAT WE NEED TO PLACE DOUBLE EMPHASIS ON THIS.

HIGH PRIORITY WE NEED TO PLACE EMPHASIS ON THIS, MEDIUM PRIORITY DOESN'T MEAN IT'S NOT IMPORTANT IT JUST MEANS YOU'RE DOING A GREAT JOB IF YOU LOOK AT THE BOTTOM ONE OVERALL QUALITY OF CITY LIBRARY SERVICES, 70% OF RESIDENTS ARE SATISFIED.

IT'S IMPORTANT TO RESIDENCE RIGHT NOW UP TO 5%.

THAT IS RIGHT NOW IT DOESN'T MEAN IT'S NOT IMPORTANT IT MEANS RIGHT NOW WHERE WE ARE. IT IS 5% SAY THAT IT IS IMPORTANT IT'S AT THE BOTTOM KEEP DOING WHAT YOU DOING THIS HELPS US PRIORITIZE. AS WE DO THAT THE IMPORTANT SATISFACTION RATING YOU SEE THE ITS RATING RANK ON THE FAR END THE NEXT ONE THAT IS A READING AND AS WE DO THAT OVERALL SATISFACTION FOR THAT SERVICE WILL GO UP AND THAT SHE GO DOWN THE LIST. ANOTHER PRIORITY WILL COME UP AND THAT HELPS US TO STAY FOCUSED IN WHAT DO I NEED TO DO NEXT, WHAT IS MOST IMPORTANT TO RESIDENCE.

NO SURPRISE FLOW OF TRAFFIC, MAINTENANCE OF CITY STREETS THOSE ARE BIG TO BE THE TOP THREE HIGH PRIORITIES.

AND THEN WE DID THIS FOR EACH DEPARTMENT.

EACH DEPARTMENT WE HAD A SPECIFIC MEETING AND WE WERE ABLE TO TALK THIS WOULD BE WASTING UTILITY SERVICES, THEY HAVE THEIR VERY HIGH PRIORITIES IN MEDIUM PRIORITIES.

WHAT IS REALLY COOL AS I WAS GOING THROUGH THIS THEY WERE ALREADY TALKING ABOUT THESE THINGS THEY HAD THEIR FINGER ON THE POLE SO THEY'RE MAKING DECISIONS BUT THIS WAS REALLY COOL TO COME IN AFTER AND THIS VALIDATED WHY THEY WERE MAKING THIS DECISION AND WHAT THIS REALLY DOES HELP IS THAT YOU DON'T HAVE TO LIVE IN I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO BUT THIS GIVES

[00:45:02]

MAINTENANCE SERVICES RECEIVED A VERY HIGH PRIORITIES CONDITIONER STREETS AND SIDEWALKS IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD FOLLOWED BY CLEANNESS OF STREETS AND PAVEMENT MARKINGS, THOSE ARE GOOD TO BE HIGH PRIORITIES POLICE SERVICES, NO SURPRISE THE VISIBILITY AND THE EFFORTS TO PREVENT CRIME AS A SYMBOL FOR THOSE THINGS ARE NOT INTERCONNECTED OR INTERRELATED.

COMMUNICATION CITY'S EFFORTS TO KEEP OUR RESIDENTS INFORMED ABOUT ISSUES AND THE AVAILABILITY OF INFORMATION OF CITY SERVICES AND PROGRAMS AND USEFULNESS ALL OF THE SINGLES WEBSITE, WHAT ENFORCEMENT WILL. THERE PRIORITIES WILL CUTTING LIENS AND PRIVATE PROPERTY IN THEM FOR TRASH AND DEBRIS WILL READ AND LISTEN THE DEPARTMENT HAD TO HAVE THESE IN THERE DILIGENTLY LOOKING AT THIS IN MAKING DECISIONS.

THEN WE HAVE ONE FOR THE PARKS AND RECREATION FACILITY WHICH IS A HIGH PRIORITY, MEDIUM PRIORITY WE SEE THE QUALITY OF WALKING AND BIKING TRAILS THE TREE CANOPY IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD PARKS AS A HIGH PRIORITY. HERE ARE THE PROGRAMS WITH A HIGH PRIORITY THESE ARE MOST IMPORTANT TO RESIDENCE AND THEN YOU SEE THE SATISFACTION YOU GUIDE AND AVOID PROGRAMS THAT RESIDENTS ARE LOOKING FOR WRONG. I KNOW I JUST FIRE HYDRANT WATER HOSE YOU GUYS WITH INFORMATION. WHAT WE ARE TO KNOW THAT YOU GUYS KNEW BEFORE THIS IN THE DATA JUST CONFIRMED IT, THE RESIDENTS LOVE HUTTO. ONE OF THE REASONS IT'S A GOOD PLACE TO LIVE, A GOOD PLACE TO RAISE CHILDREN.

IT FEELS LIKE A COMMUNITY AND THEN WE OBVIOUSLY NO YOU DO NOT NEED ME TO TELL YOU BUT TRAFFIC FLOW IS AN ISSUE AND IS IMPORTANT TO RESIDENCE INN AS WELL AS THE MAINTENANCE OF CITY STREETS. WE ALSO LEARNED FROM THE SURVEY THAT RESIDENTS ARE PLEASED WITH SALT WASTE SERVICES THAT ARE PROVIDED, YOU ALL ARE EXCELLING IN THE HIGH-QUALITY LIBRARY SERVICES, POLICE SERVICES. YOUR WASTEWATER SANITARY SERVICES STORMWATER MANAGEMENT WATER UTILITY CUSTOMER SERVICE, COMMUNICATION AND I JUST SAY THAT TO SAY HEY GUYS YOU ARE DOING SOMETHING RIGHT. OF COURSE EVERY CLIENT THAT WE HAVE THERE ARE OPPORTUNITIES BUT YOU GUYS ARE DOING A LOT OF GOOD THINGS FOR THE RESIDENCE. WE SEE THE OPPORTUNITIES AND PROVIDE CITIES -- PROVIDING SERVICES THAT ARE VALUE FOR THE TAX DOLLAR IN THE FEES THAT THE TAX PAYER ARE PAIN IN MANAGING GROWTH WELL, CODE ENFORCEMENT SERVICES AND PROVIDING PARKS AND RECREATION FACILITIES AND PROGRAMS THAT ARE MEETING THE NEEDS OF THE RESIDENTS, MY RECOMMENDATION TO USE THE SYSTEM I TALKED TO THE CITY STAFF ABOUT THIS AND USE THAT AS A GUIDE TO PRIORITIZE SERVICES AS A WHOLE AND AS A SMALLER DEPARTMENT LEVEL. JUST SO WE ALL KNOW YOU, THE CITY HAVE CONTRACTED US UTC TO CONDUCT THE SURVEY IN 2024 IN OHIO RECOMMENDATIONS, HOWEVER, ALLISON HAS ALREADY BEEN ON ME WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO NEXT. BUT WE HAVE RECOMMENDATIONS AND OBVIOUSLY ORGAN ASSETS AND QUESTIONS AND THAT WILL GIVE US TREND HISTORICAL DATA. THAT WILL HELP US TO SEE WHERE DID WE TREND UP RATE OF RETURN DOWN.

IF WE TREND DOWN OKAY, WE WILL PIVOT IT JUST DID NOT WORK.

THAT WILL BE REALLY USEFUL TO HAVE INFORMATION.

I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO ASK PROBING QUESTIONS TO REALLY FULLY UNDERSTAND WHERE ARE THE NEEDS OR WITH A SPECIFIC TOPIC ASKING MORE OF A SPECIFIC QUESTION. I JUST WANTED TO POINT OUT BEFORE WE JUMP INTO QUESTIONS AND TO END IT, OF COURSE I SAID THIS TO ALLISON A RELATIONSHIP DOES NOT END HERE THIS IS NOT GOODBYE, THIS IS I WILL SEE YOU AGAIN, YOU KNOW.

BUT I AM A RESOURCE FOR YOU, FROM DTC IS A RESOURCE FOR YOU AND YOUR TEAM A COMMUNITY IF YOU EVER HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR NEED ANYTHING ALLISON IS MY CELL PHONE SO SHE CAN CONTACT ME.

I'M HERE FOR YOU GUYS REALLY GREAT WORK.

I THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME BE A PART OF THAT AND I LOOK FORWARD TO SERVING YOU GUYS IN THE FUTURE AND SEEING WHAT YOU GUYS

[00:50:04]

DO YOU HAVE A LOT OF POTENTIAL. >> THANK YOU.

I DO APPRECIATE THAT. I THINK MOVING FORWARD AND CONTINUING TO DO THE SURVEYS IN DEPTH WILL TRACK OUR PROGRESS AND FOR ACTUALLY MEETING THE NEEDS OF THE CITIZENS THAT WE

SERVE. >> ALRIGHT, THANK YOU ESTHER.

>> THANK YOU WE APPRECIATE IT. >> SAFE TRAVELS BACK TO CASEY READ ONE SLIDE IF YOU CAN CHANGE THE VERY FIRST ONE HAD A BUNCH OF RED PEOPLE OPERATED IN FRONT OF UNION STATION, YOU SHOULD PUT

IMPROVEMENT PLAN UPDATES. >> GOOD EVENING.

>> GOOD EVENING MAYOR AND COUNCIL FOR THE RECORD MATT RECTOR CITY ENGINEER AND ALL OF THE STAFF HAS ASKED ME TO MAKE THIS AS QUICK AS I POSSIBLY CAN. I'M GOING TO FLY THROUGH THESE THERE IS NOT A WHOLE LOT OF UPDATES MOST OF THE UPDATE IS GETTING THE FINANCIAL INFORMATION IN HERE THAT WAS NOT NEAR THE LAST TIME WE GAVE THE UPDATE.

I WILL GET GOING. 1660 NORTH 79 NO MAJOR UPDATES EXPENSE OMITTED TO TEXTILE AND WAITING FOR LAND ACQUISITION TO BE FINALIZED PRE-FINANCIAL DATA ON THIS ONE.

THE CIP BUDGET HAD AT 541610 AND WE ENCUMBERED 637,042.

WHICH IS OBVIOUSLY AN OVERAGE SO THAT WILL BE BROUGHT FORTH IN A FUTURE BUDGET AMENDMENT TO RECTIFY THAT.

1660, MY APOLOGIES I GOT THE MIXED UP.

THE LAST ONE IS READY TO GO CONSTRUCTION.

LET ME BACK UP. THIS ONE IS DESIGN COMPLETE PREVIOUS BEEN AWARDED ORGAN START CONSTRUCTION AT THE END OF MAY SO WE TIME IT SO IT'S NOT DURING THE SPRING.

1660 AT LIMERICK THIS IS WHEN I WAS TALKING EARLIER EVERYTHING HAS BEEN SUBMITTED TO TECH STOCKS FOR FINAL PLANS.

LAND ACQUISITION IS PENDING AND THERE'S BEEN NOTHING TODAY ON THIS ONE, THE BUDGET IS STILL SITTING OUT THERE.

>> 1660 SOUTH NO MAJOR UPDATES SINCE LAST TIME WE PRESENTED.

NO ENCUMBRANCES NOTHING SPENT WERE STILL WORKING TO DESIGN AND ALL THAT. CR 137 NO MAJOR UPDATES WE ARE 30% COMPLETE AND GETTING READY TO GO TO A PUBLIC MEETING WITH THE SCHOOL DISTRICT SO WE CAN TALK ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY OF ROUNDABOUT VERSUS TRAFFIC SIGNAL WITH THE SCHOOL.

WILCO ONE OF THE QUESTIONS YOU ASKED ME LAST TIME WAS WILCO HAVE ANY PLANS TO IMPROVE THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF COUNTY ROAD 177, THE ANSWER IS NO THEY DO NOT.

THE BUDGET ON THAT ONE, THE CIP BUDGET WAS 420 WHERE IT ENCUMBERED 743 AND SPENT 120. SO THERE IS A BUDGET TO MIMIC

FORTHCOMING. >> IS THAT BECAUSE WE INCREASE THE SCOPE AFTER WE STARTED IT? I DON'T RECALL WHY IT WAS SO FOR OVER. DOES ANYONE REMEMBER.

>> I DON'T REMEMBER THE SCOPE SPINNAKER HAD TO GUESS IT'S BECAUSE HE STARTING TO USE ACCURATE NUMBERS AND BEFORE WE WERE JUST GETTING A WAGON NUMBERS.

>> THIS ONE HAS BEEN AWARDED CONSULTANTS WILL START REACHING OUT TO HOMEOWNERS TO TALK ABOUT GETTING ACCESS TO THE DRIVEWAYS SO THEY CAN START DOING RIGHT OF ENTRY AND ALL THAT KIND OF STUFF BECAUSE THERE WILL BE DRIVEWAYS THAT GET IMPACTED SPRING LOOSE SYSTEMS JUSTLY CONVEYS ONE BUT WERE MOVING ON IN PHASE TWO.

WE JUST AWARDED THAT ENCUMBRANCE FOR THAT CONTRACT HAS NOT HIT THE ACTUAL FINANCE SYSTEM YET. THAT'S WHY YOU YOU DON'T SEE ANY ENCUMBRANCES AFTER THE BUDGET IS STILL SITTING ON 975.

>> COUNTY ROAD 132 OVERPASS, NO UPDATES ON THIS ONE WE ANTICIPATE BRINGING AN IPO FOR COUNSEL WITHIN THE NEXT MONTH FOR NO CHANGES ON THAT ONE PER THE BUDGET IS STILL SITTING OUT THERE. MAKE ASIDE EAST-WEST ONE OF THE THINGS YOU GUYS BROUGHT UP LAST TIME AS A TIMELINE.

IF YOU LOOK AT THE COMPLETION DATE I WENT BACK TO THE ENGINEER HIM WE SQUEEZED SEVERAL MONTHS OUT OF IT ALMOST A FULL YEAR AND

[00:55:03]

COULD SHIFT TO THE LEFT. >> BUDGET ON THAT ONE IS 2.1 MILLION WE ENCUMBERED 750 AND WE SPENT 11.6.

WE SAW LESS OVERBUDGET ON THAT. >> LIVE OAK NO UPDATES WERE WORKING TO GET A SCOPE TO BRING THE COUNCIL FOR THE CHANGES TO DO ALL THE UNDERGROUND UTILITIES AND STUFF THAT WE TALKED ABOUT LAST TIME. THE BUDGET IS STILL OUT THERE

NOTHING SPENT. >> EDGE SMIT NOAH UPDATE SINCE LAST SUMMER WORKING ON AN IPO TO GET AWARDED TO DO THE FINAL WARRANT STUDY. THE BUDGET IS STILL OUT THERE, NOTHING, NOTHING SPENT, COUNTY ROAD 189 SAME THING WERE WORKING ON AN IPO TO GET THAT AWARDED BUDGET IS STILL SITTING OUT THERE, NOTHING COVERED NOTHING SPENT FRAME SWITCH PUMP STATIONS THIS WHEN WE DONE THE PREPACKAGED THE PREPURCHASE OF THE PUMPS IN THE GENERATORS THAT IS IN PROCESS NO MAJOR UPDATES.

SO FAR WE ACTUALLY HAVEN'T SPENT ANYTHING NOTHING COVERED NOTHING SPENT. SHILOH THIS ONE IS IN CONSTRUCTION. WERE WORKING TO THE PROCESS WITH THE CONTRACTOR TO GO THROUGH ALL OF THIS ON TRANSMITTALS THEY HAVE BEEN DOING ALL THE MOBILIZATION, THAT'S WHY YOU SEE WE HAVE A $5 MILLION BUDGET AND WE ENCUMBERED THE $310,000 CONTRACT. , FRAME SWITCH, NO MAJOR UPDATE IS OUT FOR BID RIGHT NOW AND WE INTRICATELY RENEW THE CONTRACT FOR CONSTRUCTION WORD AT THE FIRST MEETING IN APRIL.

>> THE INTERCONNECT WITH THE JONAH WE ARE 30% DESIGN COMPLETE NO MAJOR UPDATES FOR THE BUDGET 755187.

THERE WILL BE A FUTURE AMENDMENT IF YOU GUYS REMEMBER THIS ONE BEFORE, W5 WHICH WILL TALK ABOUT A SECOND W7 HAVE ALL KIND OF BEEN SHIFTED AROUND BECAUSE OF THE WAY THE WATER MASTER PLAN WAS DONE. SO THIS FEE WILL CHANGE A LITTLE BIT AND THE OTHER FEES WILL CHANGE DOWN BY IMPORTANCE.

W5 NO CHANGES BECAUSE IT'S GETTING SWALLOWED UP INTO W-4 3W7 THINKING NO CHANGES BECAUSE ALL INTO W-4.

COUNTY ROAD 132 NO MAJOR UPDATES, 30% COMPLETE WORKING TOWARD 60%. WE HAVE A BUDGET OF 900 AND WE SPENT 339,000 SO FAR. EMERGENCY INTERCONNECT, NO UPDATES WE'VE NOT FIGURED OUT A WHOLESALE PROVIDER YET SO WE DON'T HAVE ANY PROJECT WITH THEM TO CONNECT.

WATER MASTER PLAN NO UPDATES BECAUSE IT IS COMPLETE.

THE BUDGET WAS 150,000 WE ACTUALLY ENCUMBERED 298 AND WE HAD 54 SO THERE WILL BE A BUDGET AMENDMENT COMING ON THIS ONE.

THE NEXT ONE PHASE ONE WATERLINES THIS IS THE SAME 30% COMPLETE WERE WORKING FOR 60% IN THE BUDGET WAS 400,000 WE SPENT 489,000 SUPPORT SO THERE WILL BE AN AMENDMENT COMING ON THIS ONE.

>> 1660 WATERLINES THIS ONE IS MORE OF A REIMBURSEMENT TYPE PROJECT NO REAL UPDATES FOR YOU NOTHING, NOTHING SPENT FOR THE ELEVATOR STORAGE TANK WE AWARDED THAT AT THE LAST COUNCIL MEETING AND WE STARTED WORKING WITH THE CONSULTED ON THE SITE SELECTION.

YOU CAN SEE THERE IS NO BUDGET IN THERE.

BUT IT WAS THOUGHT WE SHOULD GO AHEAD AND START RATHER THAN WAITING FOR 2025. NOTHING ENCUMBERED NOTHING SPENT BUT THEY WILL BE IN ENCUMBRANCE AND EXPENDITURE SOON BECAUSE WE JUST AWARDED THE CONTRACT. WELLS NO UPDATE WE HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING THERE'S A MORATORIUM BY WASP PINES GROUNDWATER CONTROL DISTRICT. SO WE HAVE NOT ENCUMBERED OR SPENT ANYTHING ON THIS ONE YOU. CR 132 IS ANOTHER MEGA SITE WATERLINE PROJECT THIS IS PHASE TWO SO WE HAVE NOT STARTED ON THIS, NO UPDATES AND NOTHING ENCUMBERED NOTHING SPENT.

HIGHWAY 79 WATERLINE AGAIN 30% COMPLETE, WORKING TOWARD 60% AND

[01:00:06]

>> WHEN WOULD WE AWARDED THIS AT THE LAST COUNCIL MEETING.

WE'VE KICKED THEM OFF THEY ARE WORKING IN THEIR CONTRACT OBVIOUSLY HAS NOT HAD THE FINANCIAL SYSTEM YET THAT'S WHAT YOU DON'T SEE ANY ENCUMBRANCE OR ANYTHING SPENT.

SOUTH WASTEWATER TREATMENT CAPACITY REWRITE EVERYTHING WAS SUBMITTED TO TC'S Q WERE JUST WAITING ON THEIR MINISTRY REVIEW PROCESS I DON'T REALLY KNOW WHY THAT'S A 0 ON THE BUDGET I NEED TO GO BACK AND LOOK AT THE FINANCIALS ON THIS ONE.

I KNOW THE ORIGINAL BUDGET WAS IN 2022.

NOT 2020. AND THESE NUMBERS ARE FOR 2023.

SO OF THE 2022 MONEY THAT WAS 45000 ENCUMBERED 47 SPENT 30 SO THERE WILL BE A SLIGHT BUDGET AMENDMENT THAT HAS TO BE DONE ON THAT ONE. SOUTH WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT, THE UV SYSTEM WE SUBMITTED PROTOCOL TO TC Q THEY HAVE BASICALLY SAID PLANET THEY'RE OKAY WITH THAT THEY WANT TO SEE THE RESULTS. WORKING TOWARDS A PROCESS OF GETTING ON THE STREET. WE'VE BEEN DOING THE TESTING AND GETTING IN ON THE STREET FORBIDDING AND SO FAR WE'VE ENCUMBERED 276,000 SPENT 66. THE SOUTH WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT EXPANSION NO MAJOR UPDATE TO LISTEN WE AWARDED IT AT THE LAST MEETING ENGINEERING. WERE WORKING TOWARDS GETTING A WORKSHOP AND SO THE BUDGET WAS 1.2 WE ENCUMBERED ONE POINT FOR THE BOARD AND WE HAVEN'T SPENT ANYTHING YET.

, SOUTH WASTEWATER THE FINAL DESIGN WE HAVE ASSERTED THAT WHEN YOU NO UPDATES NO ENCUMBRANCES NOTHING SPENT, THE MEGA SITE SOUTH WASTEWATER COTTONWOOD CREEK PHASE ONE THIS IS A MEGA SITE WASTEWATER PROJECT NO MAJOR UPDATES IS 30% DESIGN COMPLETE IN THE BIG HOLDUP IS GETTING RIGHT OF ENTRY WERE WORKING WITH THAT PROCESS WITH LANDOWNERS AS SOON WILL PUSH THROUGH SURVEY AND GET THAT GOING.

$2 MILLION IS A BUDGET. THEY SHOULD BE IN ENCUMBRANCE I'M NOT SURE WHY THERE'S NOT. AND NOTHING SPENT TODAY.

I WILL GO AND ENDED THAT UP AND FIGURE OUT WHY THE FUNCTIONING CORRECTLY. MEGA SITE PHASE TWO WE HAVE NOT STARTED OUT WHEN YOU NOTHING ENCUMBERED NOTHING SPENT.

MEGA SITE USED THIS IS THE SAME STORY 30% DESIGN COMPLETE WERE WAITING ON RIGHT OF ENTRY SO WE CAN FINISH SURVEY AND GEOTECH AND ALL THAT KIND OF STUFF. 2 MILLION WAS THE BUDGET AND WE ENCUMBERED 1.1 AND WE SPENT 400 SO WE STILL HAVE SOME MONEY LEFT OVER THERE. BRUSHY CREEK PHASE THREE THIS IS COST PARTICIPATION. NO UPDATES WE HAVE NOT ENCUMBERED OR SPENT ANYTHING ON THAT ONE.

IN SOUTHEAST LOOP I DON'T HAVE ANY UPDATES WE ANTICIPATE BRINGING A DESIGN CONTRACT FOR AWARD AT THE NEXT MARCH MEETING.

NOTHING ENCUMBERED NOTHING SPENT AND NO ORIGINAL BUDGET ON THAT.

AND WITH THAT ANY QUESTIONS? >> QUESTIONS FROM COUNSEL?

>> YOU DO HAVE A COUPLE MORE FOR THE CITY MANAGER.

IF YOU COULD GO BACK TO T2. A LOT OF THESE SEEMED LIKE THERE'S BUDGET LIMITS COMING BUT I DON'T KNOW IF THEY'VE HIT OUR DEAL. SOME OF THE STUFF WAS SPENT UNAWARE WE STARTED BUT IT SEEMS A REOCCURRING THING WHERE MONEY IS GETTING SPENT LET'S NOT OUTSIDE OF BUDGET AND WHAT I'M AFRAID WE COULD HAVE OPENED YOUR PROJECTS AT SOME POINT IN DESIGN AND NO MONEY LEFT TO BUILD ANYTHING BUT IF YOU GO ONE MORE SLIDE FORWARD AND WITH THAT THIS IS REALLY GOOD INFORMATION BUT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE A LINE OF SPENT TO DATE ON THE ENTIRE PROJECT BECAUSE SOME OF THESE PROJECTS ARE TAKING THREE OR FOUR YEARS SO LIKE THIS ONE WE MAY NOT SPEND ANY ON THAT THIS YEAR BUT WE MAY HAVE SPENT 5.6 MILLION OVER THE PAST FOUR

[01:05:03]

THAT IS A SUGGESTION. >> THAT IS CERTAINLY DOABLE AND WE CAN LOOK AT TRYING TO CUT THAT INTO THE NEXT ITERATION OF THIS IN APRIL. I DO WANT TO BE CAREFUL THAT WE DON'T GET TOO MUCH INFORMATION ON THE SIDE WHERE IT STARTS TO GET CLUTTERED AND PEOPLE DON'T UNDERSTAND WE DO THAT TYPE OF INFORMATION AT A MEMO TO COUNSEL OR SOMETHING ELSE BECAUSE REALLY THIS IS MY INTERPRETATION SO THIS IS NOT ACCURATE, LET ME KNOW AND I WILL GIVE STAFF ADDITIONAL DIRECTION BUT WE CAN PUT A LINE ON THEIR THIS IS TOTAL PROJECT COST, TOTAL PROJECT COST BUT I THINK WHAT YOU CARE ABOUT MOST IS THIS YEAR WHAT WE'VE ENCUMBERED AND WHAT WE ARE EXPENDING, WHETHER WERE OVER UNDER BUDGET WITH THE THINGS YOU HAVE AGREED TO DO.

THAT WAY YOU CAN ANSWER THE QUESTIONS THAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT A ACCIDENTALLY OVERSPENT ON HALF THE PROJECTS AND NOW WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO FINISH THE OTHER ONES THAT WERE MEANT TO BE DONE. JUST SEND ME INFORMATION LIKE THAT AND I'M MISINTERPRETING WHAT I THINK IS VALUABLE TO YOU ALL THAT WE CAN TWEAK THIS INFORMATION THAT WE ARE

PRESENTING. >> ONE OF THE THINGS I TELL MY ENGINEERS WHEN THEY COME AND MAKE PROPOSALS THEY FAILED IF I HAVE TO DO MATH, I CAN DO MATH BUT WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IS IN APPENDIX PAGE AT THE END THAT GIVES A SUMMARY AND SHOWS WHERE WE ARE OVER ACROSS ALL THE PROJECTS FROM TRANSPORTATION.

>> I THOUGHT WE INCLUDED ON IT I HAD ASKED HIM TO INCLUDE A TABLE. I THOUGHT THAT HE GOT INCLUDED.

>> IT WAS ON THE PRESENTATION. >> THAT COULD BE IN THE END I THINK IT WOULD GIVE ALL THE DATA BUT NOT THE INDIVIDUAL PROJECTS

BUT A HOLISTIC VIEW AT THE END. >> IS SEVERALLY NOT IN THIS PRESENTATION IT DOES NOT DO THE PUBLIC ANY GOOD BECAUSE YOU CANNOT READ IT. I THOUGHT IT WAS AND WHAT WE SHARED WITH COUNSEL BUT THAT IS FINE I'LL MAKE SURE THAT WE GET

THAT. >> WHATEVER IT TAKES TO COMMIT AGAIN TO THE PEOPLE AFTER WE PASSED THE 12 MILLION BONDS WITH ENOUGH 7 MILLION LEFT SO I DON'T THINK YOU CAN DO MANY ROAD PROJECTS NEXT YEAR UNLESS SOME POINT WE GO BACK TO THE VOTERS AND ASK FOR ANOTHER AUTHORIZATION OF BOND MONEY IF WE JUST TALK ABOUT THE SHARE LOOKS A OPERATING A CERTAIN WAY.

HOWEVER, IN MY OPINION WE START COMMITTEE KATIE NOW WHAT WE'VE DONE WITH THE MONEY GOOD STEWARDS LEARN LESSONS HOW WE GOING TO DO BETTER THE NEXT TIME SO WHEN WE GO BACK TO THE VOTER FOR WHATEVER WE SAY THEY'RE NOT GOING TO VOTE IT DOWN.

>> THE PUBLIC IS MOST CONCERNED ABOUT ROADS AND ROADS AND ROADS.

SO MAYBE MONTHLY HAVE THIS IS AN UPDATE ON ROADS BUT QUARTERLY WE HAVE A WATER WASTEWATER SINCE THOSE ARE MOSTLY IN DESIGN AND FOR WHATEVER REASON THOUGH SEEM TO GO ACCORDING TO SCHEDULE BUT THE ROADS ARE THE ONES EVERYBODY SEEMS TO SEE AND I THREW THAT OUT THERE TO MAKE THE PRESENTATION NOT SO DIFFICULT ALL THE TIME FOR THE LAST ONE I DO APPRECIATE YOU BRINGING OF THE MORATORIUM A YEAR AGO WHEN WE WERE TALKING TO F CORPORATION THAT WAS ONE OF THE BIGGEST CONCERNS I FORGOT HIS PROPOSAL TO BRING MORE WATER YET HAVE THE RIGHT LOSS OF PINES IS NOT EXACTLY LETTING US DIG MORE WELLS SO THAT'S BEEN A CONCERN OF MINE WILL BE STARTED THAT THAT WAS GOING TO BE EASY AND I FORGOT WHO TOLD US OF A HAPPEN. WAS IT DCS?

>> I DO APPRECIATE THAT BEING ON THE RADAR.

THANK YOU. >> ONE THING ON T7 DID YOU EVER LOOK INTO WHAT WE SEE WITH T7 THE CIP WAS A MUST DOUBLE THE

SIZE THE ACTUAL ROAD PROJECT. >> IS TO HAVE A NOTE IN MY PRESENTATION TO UPDATE THE GRAPHIC I JUST DON'T HAVE A

GRAPHIC TO DRAW. >> ANY OTHER DISCUSSION?

THANK YOU MATT. >> BEFORE WE GO TO EXECUTIVE TO BE HAVE ANY PUBLIC COMMENTS ON ANY ITEMS LIKE ANY PUBLIC PEOPLE

HERE WAITING. >> NO IF WE DO THEY DIDN'T FEEL

ANYTHING. >> I HAVE ONE DO WE WANT TO MOVE BOARDS AND COMMISSION BEFORE WE GO TO EXECUTIVE BECAUSE THAT

WOULD BE THE ONE. >> ANY OBJECTIONS TO MOVING OUT OF? HEARING ON.

[8. EXECUTIVE SESSION (Part 1 of 2)]

ITEM 8.1 RECEIVE LEGAL ADVICE PURSUANT TO THE GOVERNMENT CODE 551.07 ONE IN REGARDS TO HUTTO CHARTER SECTION 3 16 AND INVESTIGATION AND/OR A CRIMINAL REFERRAL GUARDING TEXAS LOCAL GOVERNMENT SECTION 551.0 FOUR RECORDINGS OF CLOSED MEETINGS AND PRESERVATION OF SUCH. ASK FOR THIS ITEM TO BE ON THE AGENDA DURING PREPARATION FOR REMEDIATION THERE WAS A LOT OF CONCERNS ABOUT SOME ITEMS THAT OCCURRED IN EXECUTIVE SESSION.

WE'VE ALSO HAD MOTIONS MADE BY COUNCIL MEMBERS TO PULL THOSE ITEMS OUT INTO THE OPEN REVIEW THEY AND THE PREP FOR THAT THE CITY SECRETARY'S OFFICE WAS ASKED TO PRESENT THE RECORDINGS IN THE RECORDINGS ARE MISSING SO WITH THAT IF I UNDERSTAND CORRECTLY THE CITY MANAGER WITH THE CITY SECRETARY'S OFFICE CONDUCTED AN INVENTORY OF THE TAPES AND THERE IS OTHER RECORDINGS THAT ARE MISSING AND WE STRIVE TO FOLLOW LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE IS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.

THERE IS PEOPLE OUTSIDE OF HERE THAT BRING RECORDING AND PEOPLE TO TAKE THE RECORDER OUT MY UNDERSTANDING THE LAW IS ILLEGAL FOR PEOPLE OUTSIDE OF THE CITY COUNCIL TO LISTEN TO THE RECORDINGS AND IT'S AGAINST THE LAW TO MAKE COPIES OF THOSE IT'S AGAINST THE LAW TO DESTROY THOSE PRETTY ESPECIALLY WITHIN TWO YEARS. WITH ALL THE THINGS THAT GO ON WITH HAPPENS IN EXECUTIVE SESSION I FIND IT A LITTLE INTERESTING AND PECULIAR THAT CERTAIN PARTICULAR MEETINGS ARE MISSING BUT I'M NOT GOOD TO MAKE ACCUSATIONS.

WHAT I THOUGHT WOULD BE BEST TO DO AND MORE PROFESSIONAL MANNER IS TO HIRE AND I WAS INTERVIEWED BY DAVID WITH GEORGE HYDE'S LAW FIRM SOMEBODY WHO IS A THIRD PARTY WHO CAN COME IN AND FIND OUT WHAT EXACTLY EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT WOULD'VE TOUCHED HIS PARTICULAR TAPES OR BEEN INVOLVED WITH THEM AND MAYBE THEY WOULD COME UP WITH A RECOMMENDATION ON HOW BEST WE CAN HAVE GUIDELINES. I'LL LEAVE IT WITH US IN ILL DAYS WE HAD A CERTIFIED AGENDA PIECE OF PAPER.

WHEN THAT WAS OVER WITH HER WAS SIGNED PUT IN AN ENVELOPE AND SEALED ANYTIME ANYBODY OPENED THE ENVELOPE IT WAS WRITTEN WHO GOT INTO ANY DATE PRETTY DOESN'T SEEMED LIKE WE WERE NECESSARILY DOING THAT WITH THE RECORDINGS AND THAT'S NOT MY OPINION A FAULT OF THE CURRENT CITY SECRETARY AND SOMETHING SINCE WE INSTITUTED THIS THAT'S WHAT WE DID.

BUT WITH THAT THE FIRST THING WE NEED TO FIND OUT WHAT EXACTLY HAPPENED AND AFTER WE FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENED THEN MY HOPE IS WE CAN ALSO FIGURE OUT THE BEST WAY TO MAKE SURE THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN. THAT'S WHY I BROUGHT THIS UP MY HOPE AFTER DISCUSSION THAT WE AUTHORIZE TO WALK THROUGH THE EXACT STEPS AT A REALLY NEED ANOTHER AGENDA ITEM THE WAY WE SET UP ADORNMENTS BUT I HOPE WE SPENT SOME LEGAL DOLLARS TO HIRE AN INVESTIGATOR TO LOOK AT IT AND DEPENDING ON WHAT THEY FIND

OUT THEY CAN TAKE IT FROM THERE. >> I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THE REASON I WANTED TO KEEP THIS IN EXECUTIVE BECAUSE THERE IS ITEM THAT I WANT TO DISCUSS THAT ARE IN THE LEGAL MEMO SO CAN I MAKE THE MOTION TO RELEASE THE ATTORNEY-CLIENT PRIVILEGE ON THE MEMO SO WE CAN EXPLAIN THE SUBJECT THAT WAS INVOLVED?

AND WHY? >> IS UP TO THE COUNCIL.

>> I MAKE THE MOTION TO RELEASE THE ATTORNEY-CLIENT PRIVILEGE ON THE MEMO REGARDING PREDENTAL HAVE IT UP RIGHT NOW.

>> I DON'T KNOW I READ IT ALL THE WAY.

>> 8.1 MEMO? >> ISSUED MARCH 1 SO WE CAN FREELY DISCUSS THE MEMO SINCE WERE NOT SHARING INFORMATION

[01:20:07]

WERE JUST HAVING A CONVERSATION. >> I THINK IT'S PREMATURE TO DISCUSS THE MEMO IF YOU CAN HIRE AN INVESTIGATOR TO INTERVIEW AND COME BACK AND BRING A REPORT BASED ON THIS INFORMATION AND WHATEVER ELSE INFORMATION THAT THE INVESTIGATOR WOULD FIND SO COUNSEL CAN MAKE THEIR DETERMINATION AT THAT TIME.

>> AND TRY TO FIGURE OUT, I WOULD STILL LIKE TO BE ABLE TO HAVE A CONVERSATION IN THE SPIRIT OF TRANSPARENCY ABOUT

WHAT THE MEDIATION WAS ABOUT. >> WE CAN'T DO THAT.

>> FIRST OF ALL WHEN YOU'RE IN A MEDIATION IT IS ALL

CONFIDENTIAL. >> YES IT IS BUT IN THE MEMO AND THE MAYOR ALREADY SAID HE WAS PREPARING FOR MEDIATION WHICH THE MAYOR SHOULD NOT OF BEEN INVOLVED IN THE MAYOR SHOULD NOT OF BEEN SITTING WITH THE CITY ATTORNEY LOOKING FOR A TAPE, THE MAYOR SHOULD NOT OF BEEN INVITED TO THE MEDIATION, THE MAYOR

SHOULD NOT OF ENGAGED. >> I AM SPEAKING RIGHT NOW.

>> THE MAYOR SHOULD NOT OF ENGAGED IN THE MEDIATION SPIRIT COUNCILMAN HOLD ON THE AGENDA ITEM IS ABOUT MISSING TAPES.

IF YOU HAVE AN ISSUE ABOUT MEDIATION OR THE PROCESS AND THE

MEDIATION. >> THIS IS WHY I WANTED IN THE BACK BECAUSE I DO HAVE A CONVERSATION.

>> YOU SAID IS PREPARATION FOR MEDIATION.

>> COUNCIL MEMBER OKAY. >> IT IS CALLED POINT OF ORDER.

>> POINT OF ORDER THE ITEM IS ABOUT MISSING TAPES.

IF YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT WE COULD GO IN THE BACK AND TALK ABOUT SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN POSTED WE CAN ONLY TALK ABOUT HERE OR IN THE BACK ABOUT SOMETHING THAT'S PROPERLY POSTED TO THE PUBLIC AND MORE THAN HAPPY TO HAVE THE DISCUSSION BUT WE NEED TO KNOW THE AGENDA ITEM AND PROPERLY POSTED BECAUSE AS I UNDERSTAND CORRECTLY IF I'M WRONG CITY ATTORNEY THIS ITEM IS ABOUT MISSING TAPES IN GENERAL AND TO BE FAIR THERE ARE TAPES MISSING MORE THAN JUST THIS ONE I DON'T REMEMBER HOW MANY YOU REMEMBER CITY MANAGER HOW MANY SHIPS ARE MISSING.

>> I DON'T BUT THE CITY SECRETARY HAS A NUMBER BUT IT'S

MORE THAN FIVE. >> FOR THAT YEAR? FOR THAT PARTICULAR YEAR I BELIEVE IT WAS THREE.

>> WHY HAVEN'T THE REST OF COUNSEL BEEN NOTIFIED OF THIS?

>> THE SHORT ANSWER IS THE CITY SECRETARY IS REALLY JUST FINISHED DOING THE AUDIT AND HASN'T SENT THE FINAL RESULTS TO ME SO THAT'S WHY I DIDN'T HAVE THE ANSWER.

ONCE I HAVE IT IT'LL BE SHARED WITH ALL OF COUNSEL.

>> THIS IS A BIG ISSUE I'M NOT ARGUING THAT AT ALL.

>> I JUST FIND IT INTERESTING WITH THE LAST MEETING OR TWO MEETINGS AGO I THOUGHT THE POSITION WAS ANYTIME ANYONE OF US ARE GOING TO ANY OF THE CITY ATTORNEYS THAT IT'S NOT -- WE WERE ALL SUPPOSED TO BE NOTIFIED I THOUGHT THAT WAS THE STANCE THAT THE MAYOR IN PARTICULAR TOOK SO THAT'S REALLY CONFUSING INFORMATION THE REASON WHY I PERSONALLY WANTED IN THE BACK WAS TO TALK ABOUT THIS IS PART OF THE AGENDA ITEM IS A NO REFERRAL AND WHEN ASKED MORE QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS I FEEL LIKE WERE BEING LED DOWN A RABBIT HOLE WITHOUT BEING TOLD THE WHOLE INFORMATION WE CAN'T BE TOLD THE WHOLE INFORMATION BECAUSE IT STARTED WITH MEDIATION LIKE THE MAYOR SAID SO FOR ME IT SEEMS LIKE OUR HANDS ARE TIED UP A FULL CONVERSATION OF WHAT THE ITEM IS ACTUALLY GOING TO DO.

>> I DON'T KNOW THAT GOING BACK THE INFORMATION THAT YOU WANT IS NOT LEGAL SO I THINK THE QUESTION IS ARE THERE TAPES MISSING, THERE ARE TAPES MISSING MAYBE THE LEGAL QUESTION IF TAPES ARE MISSING IS THAT AGAINST A LAW IF THEY WERE DESTROYED, COPIED OR TAKEN OFF-SITE BECAUSE YOU CANNOT DO ANY OF THAT IS UNDERSTAND 55:11:04 P.M. HAPPY TO GO BACK AND TALKING CLOSE SESSION ABOUT THE LEGALIST OF THINGS BUT IF IT'S A QUESTION ABOUT THINGS THAT AREN'T LEGAL OPINIONS AND IT'S ABOUT WHO TALK TO WHO OR WHEN THEY TALK TO WHY WERE HERE I DON'T KNOW THAT WE CAN GO BACK.

>> THAT IS TO BE A SEPARATE AGENDA ITEM IF THERE IS A QUESTION TO THE CONDUCT OF ANY OF THE MAYOR COUNCIL MEMBERS THAT IS A SEPARATE AGENDA ITEM IN RELATION TO WHATEVER THE

CONDUCT WAS. >> MY RECOMMENDATION IS IF WE COULD BE LOOKING AT THIS ISSUE THAT WE DO GET OUTSIDE INVESTIGATORS AND THAT WOULD BE STEP ONE AND THEN HAVE THE

REPORT BACK TO THE FULL COUNCIL. >> AT THIS POINT WE HAVE HAD A

[01:25:08]

WE HAVEN'T HAD A PRESENTATION FROM THE CITY ATTORNEY STAFF ABOUT THE MISSING TAPES AND WERE MAKING A DECISION BASED ON INFORMATION THAT WERE BEATING UNDER BEING GIVEN TO VERBALLY BY THE MAYOR WITH NO BACKUP. WE ARE BEING ASKED TO MAKE A DECISION TO SPEND TAXPAYER DOLLARS TO DO AN INVESTIGATION.

YES IT IS A BIG DEAL BUT I WANT TO MAKE SURE WERE DOING THIS IN THE RIGHT WAY SO WE DON'T TRIP HERSELF LATER.

>> RIGHT THERE ARE MISSING TAPES, NOBODY CAN PINPOINT IN THE BRIEF INVESTIGATION THAT WAS DONE WHY SO PART OF THE INVESTIGATOR'S JOB WOULD BE TO INTERVIEW PEOPLE AT THE TIME TO FIND OUT IF THE TAPE WAS GIVEN TO SOMEBODY OR IF THE TAPE WAS PUT IN THE SAFE AND THE PERSON SAYS YES I REMEMBER ON THAT DAY I DID PUT THE TAPE ON THE SAFE THEN THERE'S THE QUESTION HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE ACCESS TO IT IN PART OF THE INVESTIGATION WILL BE RECOMMENDATION TO TIGHTEN UP THE PROCEDURES.

>> THAT WAS MY POINT WERE TALKING A LITTLE CASSETTE RECORDER WE HAD IN THE EDC MEETING EARLIER TODAY COULD BE AS SIMPLE AS SOMEONE DID NOT HIT THE RECORD BUTTON LITERALLY I HAVEN'T EVEN LOOKED AT WHAT DATES BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY THE CONTENT OF WHAT IS MISSING MATTERS BECAUSE CONTEXT MATTERS WHICH IS WHY I THINK WE NEED AN AUDIT THAT IS A THIRD PARTY WHICH IS INDEPENDENT ANYTHING APPEAR OF WHAT ANYONE SAID.

I DON'T SEE THERE'S A PROBLEM WITH AND I THINK GETTING A THIRD PARTY WITH THE TIGHTENING UP I THINK WE DO NEED TO HAVE I DON'T THINK THEY SHOULD BE SOME DRIVES WERE STORED IN LOCKDOWN AND THEY CAN BE DELETED AND THEN THEY HAVE CHECKOUT LOGS OF TIMES I HAVE A VERY SIMPLE STUFF ANYTIME YOU CHECK THE FILE YOU LIST YOUR USERNAME, PASSWORD ALL THE STUFF.

HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH I THINK WE SHOULD GET THE THIRD-PARTY INVESTIGATOR AUDIT AND THEN WE GET THE REPORT AND WE DECIDE WHAT THAT MEANS. IT MAY BE WITH TO TIGHTEN UP AND CHANGE SPECIFICATIONS AREN'T THERE, WHEN SOMETHING HAPPENED BUT MAYBE THE SCOPE HOPEFULLY IS NOT WHAT'S MISSING IS A LEGAL ISSUE FOR SOMETHING THE CITY IS DEALING WITH PRE-HOPEFULLY HAS JUST WHATEVER HAPPENED BUT NOW WE CAN TIGHTEN UP THE PROCESS AND MOVE FORWARD. I WOULD BE WILLING TO MAKE A MOTION THAT WE WORK WITH THE CITY MANAGER TO COME BACK WITH THE THIRD-PARTY AUDIT THAT THE CITY MANAGER IN THE CITY ATTORNEY RECOMMENDS TO USE AND THEN WE COME FORWARD WITH THAT.

>> I WILL SECOND THAT. >> A MOTION FOR THIRD-PARTY INVESTIGATOR FOR THE CITY MANAGER TO BRING BACK.

>> WITH THE CONTRACT FOR THIRD-PARTY INVESTIGATOR.

>> CORRECT. >> AND SECONDLY COUNSEL MARIE

SUTTON? >> YES.

>> ONE LAST COMMENT FOR THE RECORD WHEN WE ARE TOLD AND ONE OF THE COUNCIL MEMBERS SAYS THIS IS THE FIRST THAT WERE HERE BUT WE GOT A LEGAL MEMO AND IS A TAPES WERE MISSING.

JUST BY READING THE LEGAL MEMO IN READING THE ITEM 551.104 IN UNDERSTANDING RECORDINGS ISAAC EVERYBODY WOULD NO RECORDINGS ARE MISSING AND I DON'T KNOW WHY AND I DON'T WANT TO MAKE ASSUMPTIONS PRETTY COULD BE AN ACCIDENT THAT IS WHY ONE OF THE COMMENTS I MAKE WHEN I GOING I E DON'T HIT RECORDER JULIE OR ANYTHING BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR WHAT HAPPENS FOR WHATEVER TO NOT BE THERE.

I DID THE FIRST ONE BLAMED AND I DIDN'T TOUCH IT SPINNING WHEN YOU POST THINGS LIKE CORRUPTION YOU SEND A MESSAGE.

>> MAYOR COUNCIL I WANT TO MAKE SURE ON YOUR MOTION AND SECOND WE'RE GOING TO DO THE UNDER 9.1 ACTION?

>> CORRECT. >> I GUESS WILL HOLD OFF ON

THEM. >> THE NEXT ITEM.OMMENTS AS WELL. AS A COUNSEL ARE WE AGREEING IF YOU'RE USING ATTORNEY TIME THAT ALL OF US ARE TO KNOW?

>> I DON'T THINK THAT'S THIS ITEM I THINK WE HAD A DISCUSSION

PRIOR. >> IT ALSO WASN'T AGENDA ITEM BEFORE IS VERY CLEAR THAT THAT IS HOW COUNSEL FELT IT DOESN'T

[01:30:01]

STARTING TO FEEL. >> MY COMMENT.

>> I DID NOT ASK ANYBODY NOT TO REPORT IT I DID NOT ASK ANYBODY

NOT TO SHARE IT. >> I DIDN'T EITHER AND THAT'S

NOT WHAT WAS TOLD TO ME. >> WHAT WAS TOLD TO YOU?

>> IF YOU'RE USING IT SHOULD BE GOING OUT TO EVERYBODY.

>> THAT WAS VERY MUCH TOLD TO BE BACK IF WE CONSULT A CITY

ATTORNEY EVERYBODY SHOULD KNOW. >> OUTCOMES ONLY COUNCIL MEMBERS ARE GETTING THEIR OWN THINGS ANSWERED AND THE REST OF THE

COUNCIL IS PRIVY TO THAT. >> NOT TO BE A SMART ALEC.

>> IS NOT ON THE AGENDA. >> NOT TO BE A SMART ALEC WHY

ARE YOU ASKING ME. >> SO YOU CAN CONTINUE TO TALK ABOUT THINGS THAT ARE NOT ON THE AGENDA YOU'RE OKAY TO TALK ABOUT IT AFTER YOU POINTED OUT IS NOT OKAY FOR ME AND YOU DEFINITELY CENTERPIECE ON THIS MATTER MORE THAN ANYONE.

>> I'M NOT TRYING TO BE SMART I DON'T KNOW WHY I'M BEING ASKED IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT THINGS BEING SHARED.

WE MAY NOT ALL REALIZE THIS I CAN'T SHARE THINGS WITH THE ENTIRE COUNSEL THAT'S BREAKING ANOTHER LAW.

IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION WHAT I WOULD ADVISE REACH OUT TO THE CITY MANAGER IN THE CITY ATTORNEY AND ASKED WHY IS NOT BEING SPREAD AROUND OR SHARED. ASKING ME WHY SOMEONE ELSE DOESN'T DO SOMETHING ISN'T SOLVING YOUR PROBLEM AND NOT

ANSWERING YOUR QUESTION. >> I'M NOT A MIND READER I DID NOT KNOW YOU WERE GOING TO BE MEETING AND HOW DID I KNOW TO ASK BEN YOU MEETING WITH MIKE TODAY, HOW WOULD I KNOW TO ASK

HIM A. >> I THOUGHT YOU WERE TALKING

ABOUT THE TAPES. >> IT'S OKAY.

>> COUNCIL MEMBER KOHLER. >> WE QUESTION IS FOR DOTTIE.

I CAN SEE WHERE THERE IS CONFUSION BUT BASED ON THE CONTEXT OF THE ITEM IT SEEMS PRETTY BROAD THAT IT WOULD ENCOMPASS IF WE DO GIVE DIRECTION TO THE CITY IT WOULD BE AN AUDIT OF THE ACTIONS DONE AND I FEEL LIKE IT'S GETTING CONFUSED AS TO A SPECIFIC CASE AND CONCERN THAT THE COUNCIL HAS HAD TO DISCUSS AN EXECUTIVE THAT IT MAY BE GETTING CONFUSED WITH A MORE SPECIFIC INVESTIGATION INTO THAT CASE.

IS IT CORRECT THIS ITEM OF A BROAD OVERVIEW OF WHAT'S GOING ON WITH THE TAPES AND WHAT'S MISSING IN ALL THE GOOD STUFF FROM A TIMELINE AND NOT NECESSARILY DIGGING IN TO A SPECIFIC CASE TIMELINE TIME TIMEFRAME, DOES THAT MAKE SENSE.

>> YOU ARE CORRECT IT IS NOT GOING TO FOCUS ON ANY PARTICULAR PRIOR ACTS OF EMPLOYEES OTHER THAN ASKING IF THEY HAD ACCESS TO THE TAPE AT THE TIME. WHAT THEY DID WITH IT AND WHAT THEY RECALL DOING AND THAT'S OUTSIDE INVESTIGATOR WOULD ASK.

THE REASON YOU WANT TO ASKING OUTSIDE INVESTIGATOR TO HAVE 70 PARTIAL. IT'S GOING TO COVER A BROADER PERIOD OF TIME SINCE IS MORE THAN THE ONE TAPE MISSING.

>> THANK YOU. >> I APOLOGIZE FOR THE

CONFUSION. >> ALWAYS TRIED TO SAY HOW IT CAME ABOUT BECAUSE THAT'S THE FIRST TIME EVER LISTEN TO AN EXECUTIVE TAPE WAS TO MAKE A THING FOR A FUTURE AGENDA ITEMS, ONCE WE DO THIS AND IDENTIFY A PROBLEM WHICH I REALLY WANT TO FIGURE OUT HOW WE IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM, HOW DO WE FIX THE PROBLEM AND HOW DO WE IMPLEMENT THE PROBLEM AND JUST STREAMLINE THINGS. WE'VE ALL BEEN HERE LONG ENOUGH TO SEE THERE'S A LOT OF GAPS AND HOLES AND A LOT OF MISSING PARTS IN CITY HALL FOR THREE YEARS. THINK IT NEEDS TO BE LOOKED AT IN A HAVE COMPLETE FAITH IN CITY MANAGER THE HELL COME UP WITH A PROCESS THAT WE MAKE SURE, PUTTING YOU ON THE SPOT.

TO MAKE SURE ALL THE RECORDINGS ARE KEPT AND SAFE.

>> COUNCILMAN MCKENZIE DID YOU HAVE MORE THOUGHTS?

>> YES. >> OFFER REMEDYING THE ISSUE OBVIOUSLY IT IS ALARMING THAT TAPES ARE MISSING AND KNOWING EXACTLY WHICH COUNCIL MEMBER CLARK IS SAYING WHAT OTHER CONTENT AND MEETINGS AND HOW ARE WE ESSENTIALLY OPENING OURSELVES UP IF THEY ARE TO EVER BE SUBPOENAED AND WE CAN'T PRODUCE THEM PRETTY MILD DEFINITELY FOR DOING THAT.

I THINK IT'S A PART WERE COUNCIL MEMBER KOHLER SAID ABROAD AUDIT AND THE REMEDY SITUATION WITH A CRIMINAL REFERRAL.

[01:35:10]

COMING FROM THE AUDITOR? >> IF FOR EXAMPLE THROUGH THE AUDIT YOU DID FIND 70 INTENTIONALLY DID SOMETHING THAT VIOLATED THE LAW THEN IT WOULD BE UP TO COUNSEL TO CONSIDER WHETHER TO REFER THAT, THAT'S WHY IT WAS POSTED THAT WAY JUST SO YOU WOULD KNOW THE INVESTIGATOR IS GOING TO LOOK AT ALL THE CONDUCT AND IF SOMETHING WAS INTENTIONAL THAT WOULD BE REFLECTED IN THE REPORT AND FOR COUNSEL TO CONSIDER.

>> MOST IF NOT ALL THOSE PEOPLE ARE NO LONGER HERE WITH THE C CITY, CAN THEY CHOOSE NOT TO COME OR ANSWER OR COOPERATE

ESSENTIALLY. >> THE FIRST STEP IS TO REALLY DO THE INVESTIGATION AND SEE WHAT THAT REVEALS.

SYMBIAN INVESTIGATION REFUSES TO TALK THEN THAT WOULD BE UP TO THE COUNCIL WHETHER OR NOT THEY WANT TO OPEN UP 316 AND SUBPOENA PEOPLE AND GO THROUGH THAT PROCESS THAT WE SET UP.

>> IN GENERAL WHAT TO SOMETHING LIKE THIS COST?

>> I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE COST WOULD BE.

WE WOULD HAVE TO CONTACT THE INVESTIGATORS AND BRING THAT

BACK BACK TO COUNSEL. >> THAT WOULD BE PART OF THE

BIDDING PROCESS. >> I HAVE DONE AN INVESTIGATION ON A MISSING COUNSEL DOCUMENT FOR A PRIOR CITY AND IT WAS

AROUND 8 - $10000 AS I RECALL. >> ANY OTHER DISCUSSION BEFORE

WE MOVE ON TO A .7. >> MAYOR I MOVE THAT WE MOVE 9.1 NEXT SO WE CAN TAKE ACTION ON THE ITEM AS WE DESIRE.

THE CITY STAFF DID THAT AS WELL? >> IF YOU NOTICE THE AMOUNT THAT IS ON THEIR IT IS A SMALL AMOUNT IT IS GOOD TO BE DRAINAGE AS WELL AS WASTEWATER IMPROVEMENTS. OUR INSPECTORS OVERSEE THE WHOLE SITE BUT IN INSTANCES LIKE THAT THE ENGINEERING FIRM THAT DESIGNED THE WALL THERE ENGINEER WILL SIGN OFF ON THE ENGINEERING CONCURRENCE LETTER TO ENSURE THAT WHAT WAS DONE CORRECTLY.

WE OVERSEE THE PROJECT AND THEN THEY WOULD HAVE AN INDIVIDUAL

FROM THAT FIRM TO INSPECT THAT. >> GOING BACK TO THE MONEY FOR THE BONDED AMOUNT WAS 301 BUT THE ACTUAL TOTAL IMPROVEMENT COST WAS 274. WHERE DOES EXTRA MONEY GO

ESSENTIALLY? >> I HAVE THE AGENDA PACKET I'M

JUST CALLING TO. >> WHILE HE IS DOING THAT COUNCIL MEMBER, ARE YOU ASKING ABOUT THE MAINTENANCE BOND?

WHICH ITEM ARE YOU ASKING ABOUT. >> ON PAGE 361.

>> I DON'T HAVE THE PACK IN THAT FORMAT I HAVE IT ON THE

INDIVIDUAL ITEMS. >> IT SAYS IN ALMOST ALL OF T

THEM. >> IT SAYS FINAL COST.

>> IS THE TOTAL IMPROVEMENT COST OF 274,435.

>> WITH THE MAINTENANCE BOND IS FOR $301,878.50.

>> ON PAGE 360 HAS A SUBTOTAL OF 274.35.

>> AND THEN THE BOND AMOUNTS, 26 GRAND OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

>> I'M JUST ASKING WHERE DOES THE $26000 GO.

>> IS ONLY ISSUED IF THEY HAVE TO REPAIR IT.

>> IT WILL ISSUE IT WHERE DOES THAT GO.

>> AND MAINTENANCE BOND IS IF THERE IS A FAILURE AFTER WE ACCEPTED IT AND THEY DON'T CURE THE FAILURE THEN WE HAVE AN INSURANCE POLICY. THIS IS NOT THE TYPE OF BOND THAT MAY BE OR THINK ABOUT WHERE WE ISSUED DEBT TO PAY FOR SOMETHING. THIS IS THE TYPE IF THEY BUILD INFRASTRUCTURE WE ACCEPT AS A PUBLIC AND THEN THERE IS A DEFAULT OR SOMETHING THAT IS WRONG WITH THE PROJECT ITSELF AND THEY FELT SECURE, THEN WE HAVE AN INSURANCE POLICY TO GO

GET THAT REPAIRED. >> 6 MILLION IS OUR INSURANCE

POLICY EXTENSION ESSENTIALLY. >> TYPICALLY THEY GO 10% OVER WHAT IT COST THEM TO BUILD IT AND THAT'S WHERE THE TRIO ONE

COMES FROM. >> THAT'S EXACTLY WHERE THE

METHOD. >> THE 274 TIMES 1.1 IS THE 301

IT WORKS OUT EXACTLY. >> SIMILAR TO WHAT WERE DEALING

WITH IN THE FAILURE OF THE BOND. >> AND PARTICULARLY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS ONE AND KNOWING WHO INSPECTED THE SET CITY STAFF BECAUSE WE HAVE 70 PEOPLE IN OLD TOWN AND THE HORRIBLE DRAINAGE

[02:10:03]

>> WHAT THE INSPECTIONS WOULD INCLUDE WOULD BE THE WASTEWATER AND DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENTS THAT WERE DONE.

>> TO COUNCIL MEMBER KINSEY'S POINT I THANK YOU FOR DIGGING INTO STUFF LIKE THIS IS WHY WE HAVE LIVE OAK BECAUSE HE MISSED SOMETHING SIMILAR. HOW DO WE KNOW WITH ALL THE FLOODING AND I JUST GOT AN E-MAIL TODAY OR YESTERDAY ABOUT SOMEONE WHO SENT US A BILL, HOW DO WE KNOW THIS WALL THIS PARTICULAR STORMWATER OR THE DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENT ISN'T ADDING TO THE ISSUE THAT WE H HAVE, WE HAVE YARDS RIGHT NEXT DOOR THE DINNER FLED TWO YEARS AGO AND NOW TONIGHT IF WE WALKED OUT THERE IT LOOKS LIKE A LEAK. WHAT IN THIS INSPECTION HELPS US KNOW BASED ON THE ELEVATION NOW AND HOW IT'S ALL BUILT THAT WE DIDN'T MAKE THE PROBLEM WORSE WE ACTUALLY HELPED IT.

>> THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION MAYOR. THAT IT WOULD BE MORE OF LOOKING AT HIM THE ELEVATIONS THAT WERE DONE BREAD WHEN WE DO THE INSPECTION SPECIFICALLY IN THESE AREAS.

WE DON'T HAVE THE CAPABILITIES TO GO OUT THERE AND SHOOT, AS FAR AS WHETHER GRADING AND STUFF LIKE THAT.

MY UNDERSTANDING THIS PROJECT. WE'RE JUST TAKING OVER THE IMPROVEMENTS WHICH IS A SMALL AMOUNT OF IMPROVEMENTS AND THEY'RE GOING TO BE BUILDING ARE NOT SURE IF IT'S GOOD TO BE

LOTS. >> IS ONE LOT MY UNDERSTANDING

ONE SITE THAT IS THERE. >> WE DO THIS INSPECTIONS WHAT WERE CHECKING FOR SPECIFICALLY ON THE WASTEWATER AND DRAINAGE WERE INSURING IN THIS CASE WE HAVE THE INSPECTOR FROM THE ENGINEERING FIRM GO OUT THERE AND ENSURE THE WALL IS BEING BUILT PROPERLY. NUMBER ONE.

IF WE DO ANY TYPE OF HEADWALLS AND THINGS LIKE THAT WE ENSURE THAT THE CONCRETE IS POURED PROPERLY AND WE HAVE THE PROPER RIPRAP AND THINGS LIKE THAT. AS FAR AS CHECKING ELEVATIONS WE DON'T TYPICALLY CHECK ELEVATIONS UNLESS THERE IS A HUGE DISCREPANCY THAT IS OUT THERE. THEN WE WILL HAVE 70 COMMON AND CHECK ELEVATIONS BUT TYPICALLY WE WON'T DO THAT.

>> THIS IS WHERE RICHARD SHOULD CALL A FRIEND.

>> AND MATT CAME TO LISTEN BUT I'LL JUST ENTER BECAUSE ANOTHER

ANSWER. >> THE ANSWER I THINK THAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR MAYOR, ONE IT IS THE ENGINEERS RESPONSIBILITY TO ADDRESS WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT.

ONCE WE HAVE IMPERVIOUS COVER, HOW MUCH IMPERVIOUS COVER, HOW MUCH WATER WILL IN THEORY MOVE OFF TO THE PROPERTY ONTO ADJACENT PROPERTY THERE IS LAWS IN PLACE ONCE YOU START TO IMPROVE LAND YOU CANNOT HAVE MORE WATER MOVE ONTO THE ADJACENT PROPERTY THAN WHAT YOU HAD BEFORE.

THAT IS A PART OF THE TOPOGRAPHY THAT THEY DO, THE GRADE TODAY SHOOT AND ENGINEERING WORK THAT GOES INTO DESIGNING THE WASTEWATER, THE STORMWATER PLAN FOR THE PROJECT IF IN THE CASE LIKE THE DOWNTOWN, OLD TOWN FOLKS THAT WERE HAVING ISSUES WITH DURANGO, THEY DO HAVE WATER THAT IS COMING OFF THE PROPERTY THEN ALL TO ME THAT ENDS UP AND I'M GOING TO SPEAK A LITTLE BIT INTO THE LEGAL WORLD AS A CIVIL MATTER HOWEVER.

THAT WAS AN EXCEPTION TO THE RULE SIMPLY BECAUSE THE LOTS WERE NOT SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN FINALLY ACCEPTED UNTIL THE FRENCH DRAIN WAS PUTTING IN THE FRENCH DRAIN DID NOT HAPPEN.

THAT'S WHY THOSE HAPPEN. IN THIS PARTICULAR ONE THE

[02:15:02]

EVERYONE. >> LET ME ASK YOU ON.

>> THESE PLANS SATA HAS TO BE A FRENCH DRAIN THERE AND HUTTO ACCEPTED BUT THERE'S NOT A FRENCH DRAIN.

WHO IS RESPONSIBLE. I WANT TO LOOK LIKE A TRUMP FOR ACCEPTING IMPROVEMENTS AND FLOODED 70 HIS SUPPOSED TO HAVE

A FRENCH DRAIN. >> WE WOULD AND WE DID AND THE OTHER ONE. THAT IS THE ISSUE THE LOTS WERE TECHNICALLY LEGAL LOTS. THE BUILDER CAYMAN AND SOLD THE LOTS ANYWAY, THAT'S WHAT THE BUILDER IS LIABLE TO GET ALL THAT STUFF FIXED. IN THE SITUATION WHICH ARE TALKING ABOUT GENERALLY WE WOULDN'T ACCEPT IT BECAUSE IT WOULD'VE FAILED INSPECTION. INSPECTORS WOULD SAY IT SAYS ON THE PLAN SET THIS THING IS SUPPOSED TO BE HERE WERE KNOCKING IT EXCEPT THIS INFRASTRUCTURE.

BECAUSE SOMETHING IS MISSING OR WERE KNOCKING A FINAL PLAT ON THESE PLOTS BECAUSE YOU HAVE A PUT IN THE INFRASTRUCTURE THAT YOU SAID YOU WE'RE GOING TO PUT IN.

>> VESSELS LIKE AN AGENDA ITEM HOW SOMEBODY BUILT THE HOUSE.

>> SEVERAL APPARENTLY. >> THERE WERE SEVERAL ALL THE ONES THAT BACKED UP THAT WAS ISSUE.

>> ON THIS WE HAVE NO CONCERN THAT THIS IS NOT CHANGING MORE

WATER AND IT IS BUILT 100%. >> IT IS ENGINEER THAT CERTIFIES

THIS WAY. >> WHICH ENGINEER.

THE ENGINEER WHO INSPECTED AND SIGNED THE PAPER OR THE ENGINEER

THAT THE CITY HAS ON STAFF. >> IT IS THE DEVELOPERS ENG ENGINEER. IT IS ALWAYS THE DEVELOPERS ENGINEER INTO THE ONES THAT DESIGNED IT.

OUR ENGINEERS JUST SIMPLY DO REVIEWS.

WERE NOT STAMPING THE PLANS WITH OUR SEAL AND SAYING WE ENGINEERED THIS. IT'S ALWAYS THE DEVELOPERS ENGINEER THAT IS PUTTING THEIR LICENSE ON THE LINE SAYING THEY

DID IT CORRECTLY. >> IF THEY DIDN'T THEN THEY HAVE

A LAWSUIT. >> WILL BE GOOD INSPECT IS ANY LIABILITY ON THE CITY LET'S SAY THE NEW PERSON CAME OUT INSPECTED AND SAID YOU'RE GOOD TO GO AND TURNS OUT IT'S WRONG IS 3 FEET SHORT AND WIDER THAN IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE AND HE DIDN'T FOLLOW THE PLANS BUT WE PASSED ANYWAY DO WE NEED LIABILITY ON THE CITY FOR ACCEPTING IMPROVEMENTS.

>> I GUESS TECHNICALLY THAT IS A LEGAL QUESTION.

>> THERE ARE CASES THAT DON'T HOLD THE CITY LIABLE BECAUSE OF THE DEVELOPER ENGINEER THAT IS RESPONSIBLE AND YOU CAN'T FAULT THE PUBLIC FOR THE NEGLIGENCE OF YOUR STAFF.

>> NOT THAT THERE IS ANY NEGLIGENCE.

>> I MAKE A MOTION BASED ON THIS TO APPROVE 10.3 -- 13.3 AS

PRESENTED. >> MOTION BY COUNCIL MEMBER COURT, DO WE HAVE A SECOND CHRISTIAN WORK.

>> YES. >> COUSECOND BY COUNCIL NUMBER SUTTON. ANY DISCUSSION ON THE MOTION? HEARING ON, PLEASE CALL THE VOTE.
