I'VE ENJOYED THE TWO YEARS.

I THINK WE GOT SOME, AS DON HAS SAID, WE HAVE, WE'RE IN BE BETTER SHAPE WHEN, WHEN WE ENDED THAN WHEN WE STARTED.

SO I THINK SOMETIMES THAT'S THE BEST THING YOU CAN SAY ABOUT ANY TERM.

BUT CLEARLY WE'VE GOT SOME THINGS THAT ARE GOING ON IN THE TECH SIDE, UM, THAT ARE GONNA BE A DIFFERENCE MAKER FOR FOREVER REALLY, IN JUTO.

SO THOSE ARE, THOSE ARE GOOD WINS AND SOME OF OUR RETAIL WINS ARE GOOD WINS.

SO LET'S KEEP UP THE GOOD FIGHT.

DEFINITELY.

THANK YOU BOB.

REALLY APPRECIATE EVERYTHING.

WELL I'LL JUST ADD THIS, 'CAUSE YOU MENTIONED RUN MY LASTING MEMORY OF BOB IS GOING TO BE AT I C S C WHEN HE DECIDED TO TAKE US ON A NINE O'CLOCK AT NIGHT NIGHT STROLL.

AND IT'S 90 DEGREES OUT OUTSIDE.

12.

TECHNICALLY IT WAS ONE CITY BLOCK IN VEGAS, BUT UM, RIGHT.

.

SO STILL NINE MILES, I'M SURE.

YEAH, SO THAT'LL ALWAYS BE MY BESTING IMPRESSION 'CAUSE HE HAD THAT EXACT SAME SHIRT ON.

SO I REMEMBER .

THANKS BOB.

IT'S BEEN STUCK TO MY BODY.

I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO TAKE IT OFF SINCE ALL THE SWEAT.

ALRIGHT, WITH THAT, UM, GO AHEAD AND GET INTO, UH, INDIVIDUAL.

I'VE SIGNED UP FOR PUBLIC COMMENT.

UH, FIRST ONE I HAVE RECEIVED IS MR. MIKE GOMEZ.

SO YOU HAVE THREE MINUTES GONNA COME AND SPEAK.

UM, I KNOW THIS ITEM DID NOT, UH, MAKE THE AGENDA SO, UM, THE BOARD ITSELF CAN'T COMMENT ON IT, BUT YOUR HONOR, MORE WELCOME TO PRESENT WITHIN THAT THREE MINUTES.

UM, AND GO FROM THERE.

GREAT.

WELL THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME.

UH, SO WE'RE JUST BASICALLY HERE TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE MORE INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT, WHAT'S GOING ON AND, AND A LITTLE HISTORY OF THE INTERNATIONAL BARBECUE COOKERS ASSOCIATION.

UH, COUPLE OF YEARS AGO WE WERE LOOKING FOR A CENTRALIZED PLACE TO HOLD THE ANNUAL CHAMPIONSHIP.

UH, THIS IS WHERE WE HAVE ANYWHERE BETWEEN 150 TO 200 COOKERS COMING FROM ALL OVER THE STATE OF TEXAS TO COMPETE.

UH, AND WE WERE, WE WERE TRYING TO FIND A, A, A PLACE THAT HAD ENOUGH CONCRETE, WAS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING, UH, AND AND GLAD WE DID THAT LAST YEAR 'CAUSE IT RAINED ON US WHILE WE WERE THERE.

HERE, UM, WE FORMED BASICALLY BECAUSE WE HELP NONPROFITS THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE STATE SANCTION THEIR KICKOFFS, UH, COOKERS WHO ARE CHASING POINTS TO TRY TO BE QUALIFIED TO TRY TO QUALIFY FOR A FINAL CHAMPIONSHIP AT THE END OF THE YEAR.

COOKOFF, UH, THEY GO FROM PLACE TO PLACE.

UH, AND SOME OF 'EM DON'T EVEN REALIZE THAT THEY'RE DOING THIS, BUT EVERY COOKOFF IS, IS BENEFITING IN A NONPROFIT.

SO THIS NONPROFIT THAT WAS CREATED WAS TO HELP GIVE BACK TO THE COOKS AND HELP THESE NONPROFITS SUCCESSFULLY PUT ON A SANCTIONED EVENT TO JUST MAKE IT MORE, MAKE THEM MORE ACCOUNTABLE AND MAKE IT MORE STANDARD THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE STATE OF TEXAS.

UH, WE ARE THE LARGEST ORGANIZATION OUT THERE DOING THIS.

WE'VE BEEN, WE WE'RE THE OLDEST AND I'M ACTUALLY ONE OF THE REGION ONE DIRECTORS THAT ENCOMPASSES THIS AREA ALL THE WAY UP TO THE PANHANDLE.

AND WE CHOSE THIS PLACE BECAUSE, UH, WE WERE, IT WAS, THE HOSPITALITY WAS GREAT LAST YEAR.

UH, YOUR, YOUR CITIZENS REALLY BENEFITED FROM THAT A LOT.

UH, AND JENNY'S GONNA TALK ABOUT ALL THE GOOD THAT WE THINK THAT IT BROUGHT TO THE CITY LAST YEAR AND WHAT IT CAN DO THIS YEAR.

UM, THIS YEAR WHAT WE'RE DOING IS WE'RE ADDING AN

[00:05:01]

ADDITIONAL COOKOFF.

SO COOKS WILL BEGIN TO ARRIVE ON FRIDAY.

THEY WILL HAVE A COOKS MEETING ON FRIDAY NIGHT, SATURDAY THEY START COOKING, THEY TURN IN THEIR MEATS AT 12, 1 30 AND TWO AND THREE 3:00 PM UH, WE SENT OUT POSTCARDS AND WE NEED ABOUT A HUNDRED JUDGES AND WE GOT THAT LAST YEAR AND A LITTLE BIT MORE.

AND SO THOSE ARE ALL LOCAL JUDGES THAT COME TO EAT AND PARTICIPATE IN EVERYTHING.

THE OTHER THINGS THAT WE'RE ACTUALLY ALSO DOING, UM, THIS YEAR, WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN AFTER THE AWARD CEREMONY ON SATURDAY IS THE TOP 50 COOKS IN THE STATE WILL BE HERE ON SUNDAY TO COOK FOR THE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.

UH, AND JUST TO GIVE YOU A KIND OF WHERE WE'RE GOING WITH THAT AT SOME POINT, WE'RE TRYING TO CALL THAT THE GOVERNOR'S CUP.

HE JUST DOESN'T KNOW IT YET.

SO, UH, WE'RE JUST TRYING TO MAKE THAT, UH, A SIGNIFICANT PLACE WHERE PEOPLE KNOW WHERE, WHERE IT'S AT.

OKAY.

AND THAT'S ALL I GOT.

THANKS.

AWESOME.

THANK YOU.

THANK YOU.

ALRIGHT, NEXT WE HAVE, UH, MS. SELLERS.

I'M SORRY.

THAT'S OKAY.

IS YOUR LAST NAME SELLERS? I'M SORRY.

OKAY, NO WORRIES.

YOU SAID SELLERS, RIGHT? YES, MA'AM.

ALL RIGHT, PERFECT.

THANK YOU.

UM, I'M GLAD MIKE HAD A CHANCE TO KIND OF GIVE YOU THE NUTS AND BOLTS OF, UM, I B C A.

HE DID MENTION A BIG PIECE OF CONCRETE.

THAT BIG PIECE OF CONCRETE IS NOW OUR HOME AND IT HAPPENS TO BE ALSO KNOWN AS THE BRUSHY CREEK AMPHITHEATER.

AND WE ALSO HAVE ABSORBED, UM, USING, UM, ALL OF THE PARK SPACE THERE.

UM, WHEN I GOT INVOLVED WITH, UM, WITH THIS WHOLE ORGANIZATION, WE'RE ALL VOLUNTEER LED.

IT'S COMPLETELY NON-PROFIT ON OUR END AND WE TRY TO BENEFIT THE BIGGER SCOPE OF NONPROFITS IN THE STATE.

BUT ONE THING I NOTICED ABOUT COOK-OFFS IS THAT THEY WERE VERY INSULAR.

THEY GO AND THEY HAVE IT COOKOFF AND THE COOKS COME IN AND THEY COOK AND THEY TURN IN AND THEY WIN AND THEY DO THE AWARDS AND A CUT GETS CHECKED FOR THE NONPROFIT AND THEN EVERYBODY GOES HOME.

IT DOESN'T REALLY INVOLVE THE COMMUNITY USUALLY, OR, OR ENGAGE THE PUBLIC BECAUSE THEY'RE COOKING MEAT TO TURN IN, NOT TO SELL OR TO PROVIDE TO THE PUBLIC.

AND I JUST WOULDN'T HAVE THAT.

I MYSELF WORK FOR SPECIAL OLYMPICS AND I DON'T SEE A REASON WHY THE COMMUNITY SHOULDN'T BE TIED INTO THIS AND WHY WE SHOULDN'T BE PROVIDING A BETTER BENEFIT BACK TO THE PEOPLE THAT ARE SUPPORTING US AND HOUSING US.

SO WHEN WE DECIDED TO HAVE THIS IN HUDU LAST YEAR, UH, MAINLY BECAUSE WE, WE HAVE PROPERTY HERE IN HU WE LIVE IN CEDAR PARK, WHICH IS TRYING TO GET A LITTLE FURTHER EAST.

AS SOON AS OUR KIDS GET TO COLLEGE, WE'LL BE PROBABLY HU RESIDENTS.

SO, UM, VERY, VERY PROUD OF Y'ALL AND PROUD OF THE AREA AND PROUD HIPPO FANS.

WHEN WE MOVED IT TO HU, UH, LIKE I SAID, WE LOCATED IT OVER AT BRUSHY CREEK AMPHITHEATER IN THAT PARKING LOT.

UM, THERE'S A SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF COSTS THAT GO INTO THAT AS FAR AS INFRASTRUCTURE LIGHTS HAD TO BUILD A TOWN, LIGHTS, PORTA-POTTIES, WATER, ALL OF THAT.

SO WE TURNED, UM, THAT PIECE OF ASPHALT INTO A LITTLE MINI VILLAGE, UM, INVOLVED THE PUBLIC AT EVERY SINGLE STEP OF THE WAY.

UM, FIRST AND FOREMOST, THE POSTCARDS THAT WENT OUT WERE THE ACTUAL NOTIFICATION OF THE PERMIT APPLICATION.

BUT IT WAS A POSTCARD THAT SAID, HEY, TO ALL OF OUR BOARDING NEIGHBORS, IT'S 388 PEOPLE, PLEASE COME BE, UM, A VOLUNTEER JUDGE.

PLEASE BRING YOUR KIDS OUT.

WE'LL HAVE SNOW CONES, GAMES, ALL KINDS OF THINGS WHILE YOU'RE IN THE JUDGING TENT.

YOU CAN HAVE LEFTOVERS, YOU CAN BRING TRAYS OUT.

UM, SO ON AND SO FORTH.

THAT CONNECTED ME TO THE HUDA RESOURCE CENTER 'CAUSE THEY GOT WIND OF IT.

AND SO THIS YEAR WE'RE ACTUALLY BENEFITING THE HUDA RESOURCE CENTER AND THEY'RE GONNA BE ORGANIZING A PICKUP OF ALL OF OUR LEFTOVER TRAYS.

WHEN I SAY LEFTOVER TRAYS, A A JUDGE, A COOK TURNS IN EIGHT RIBS AND YOU'RE ONLY NIBBLING ON LIKE ONE OF THOSE RIBS.

SO AFTER THE RIB JUDGING GOES ON, WE GET THESE HUGE TRAYS BACK WITH AT THIS COMPETITION, A THOUSAND RIBS.

SO WE'RE BOXING 'EM UP AND WE'RE PROVIDING THEM NOW TO THE PEOPLE WHO ARE SERVED BY THE HODA RESOURCE CENTER, AS WELL AS OTHER THINGS THAT WE'RE DOING AS FAR AS GIVING THEM, UH, FINANCIALLY.

AND, AND ANOTHER SUPPORT.

FRIDAY NIGHT WE OPEN, UM, PART OF THE PARK UP TO THE PUBLIC AND WE DO A MOVIE ON THE CREEK, TECHNICALLY THE LAKE.

AND WE BRING IN A 50 FOOT MOVIE THEATER AND PLAY A, UM, MOVIE THIS YEAR.

IT'S A, UM, DOUBLE FEATURE.

IT'S THE JUMANJI AND THE JUMANJI SECOND ONE.

UM, AND WE HAD A REALLY GOOD INTERACTION BETWEEN PUBLIC FOLKS COMING OUT AND THE HEAD OF CITIZENS KIND OF ARRIVING PARKING IN THEIR SPOTS AND ENGAGING WITH OUR COOKS AND THEIR FAMILIES AND TALKING ABOUT THE RIGS AND ALL THE THINGS THEY DO TO TRAVEL ACROSS THE STATE.

THIS COMPETITION DOES BRING IN THE VAST MAJORITY OF PEOPLE ARE FROM, UM, TEXAS AND BEYOND.

SO THE COOKS THEMSELVES, THERE'S PROBABLY A HANDFUL FROM HUTTO, BUT NOT THAT MANY.

ARE WE AT THREE MINUTES? 30? OKAY, 30.

GREAT.

30 MINUTES, 30 SECONDS.

UM, SATURDAY WE DO BENEFIT THE COMMUNITY BY BRINGING IN ALL THE PUBLIC FOR THE JUDGES.

AND THEN WE HAVE A PARK THERE WHERE THEY CAN PLAY GAMES AND ENGAGE AND GET FREE KONA, SNOW CONES, THINGS LIKE THAT.

AND THEN WE DO A HIDING HENRIETTA HIPPO CONTEST WHERE WHOEVER WANTS TO CAN ENGAGE SIGN UP.

AND THEN I HAVE HIDDEN 25 LITTLE STUFFED HUS AROUND OR HIPPOS AROUND.

AND THEN THE AWARD IS GIVEN BACK TO THE PERSON WHO FINDS THE MOST HIPPOS.

THIS, OF COURSE, IS DONE TO DRAW ATTENTION TO THE MASCOT OF HATO.

UM, AND THIS YEAR WE'RE ALSO DOING A QR CODE AND THE SWAG BAG THAT ENCOURAGES THEM TO COME TAKE SELFIES WITH ALL OF THE LOCAL BUSINESSES, HU AND IN HU.

AND, UH, USE THOSE RESOURCES AND DINE THERE AND, AND REALLY GET OUT IN THE PUBLIC AND ENJOY IT SINCE THEY'LL BE HERE FOR AN EXTRA DAY.

UH, I'M GONNA BE EMAILING ALL OF Y'ALL AFTER ALL THIS WITH SOME OF THE OTHER SLIDESHOW.

I HAVE A PHOTO ALBUM FROM LAST YEAR.

IT WAS REALLY GREAT.

UM, WISH YOU COULD SEE IT HERE, BUT I UNDERSTAND.

UH, AND THAT'S ALL I'VE GOT.

THANK YOU MS. PHILLIPS.

HI, I APPRECIATE

[00:10:01]

Y'ALL FOR LETTING ME SPEAK.

SO MY NAME IS APRIL PHILLIPS AND I REPRESENT PROFESSIONALS.

IT'S A NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION THAT AIMS TO UNIFY BLACK AND ETHNIC HAIR CARE BUSINESSES ON ONE E-COMMERCE PLATFORM.

AND WE'RE GONNA USE THE SUBSCRIPTIONS, THE MONEY FROM SUBSCRIPTIONS, ADS AND DONATIONS TO REINVEST INTO BIPO COMMUNITIES TO SUPPORT MENTAL HEALTH, LEGAL ASSISTANCE AND, UM, ENTREPRENEURIALSHIP.

SO THAT'S MY, THAT'S MY AGENCY, THAT'S MY NON-PROFIT PROFIT ORGANIZATION.

SO WE'RE ORGANIZING THE CROWN ACT FESTIVAL AND IT'S THIS WEEKEND.

HOW MANY OF YOU HEARD OF IT? OKAY, YOU TWO HEARD OF IT.

OKAY, GREAT.

SO I WAS HOPING THAT YOU ALL COULD HELP US, HELP US GET THE WORD OUT ABOUT THAT FESTIVAL.

IT IS OPEN TO EVERYONE.

UM, IF, I DON'T KNOW HOW FAMILIAR YOU ARE WITH, WITH THE CROWN ACT, BUT GOVERNOR ABBOTT AND REPRESENTATIVE BOWERS, THEY PUSHED FORTH.

AND RUDY, RUDY MATEO, A LOT OF PEOPLE WERE INVOLVED IN PUSHING THIS FORWARD.

AND BASICALLY AFTER SEPTEMBER 1ST, UM, IT WILL NO LONGER BE ACCEPTABLE TO DISCRIMINATE AGAINST BLACK AND OTHER BIPO PEOPLE FOR OUR HAIR AT WORK AND AT SCHOOL.

SO WE'RE, SO WE'RE EXCITED ABOUT THAT.

, WE'RE CALLING IT HAIR LIBERATION DAY.

SO, UM, WE'RE GONNA HAVE A GREAT FESTIVAL WITH FOOD VENDORS, UH, OTHER BUSINESSES AND HAIRCARE, HAIRCARE, UM, PROFESSIONALS THAT WE'RE GONNA HAVE LIVE MUSIC AND, AND, UH, RAFFLES AND ACTIVITIES FOR THE CHILDREN AND FOOD.

AND IT'S GONNA BE GREAT.

AND I WAS JUST REALLY HOPING THAT YOU ALL COULD HELP US GET THE WORD OUT ABOUT THAT BECAUSE IT DOESN'T SEEM TO BE GETTING OUT AS WELL AS IT NEEDS TO.

AND I'D REALLY LIKE FOR IT TO BE, UH, WELL ATTENDED.

SO Y'ALL HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? I DON'T KNOW IF Y'ALL CAN ASK ME QUESTIONS.

UNFORTUNATELY WE CANNOT.

OKAY.

SO, SO THAT'S IT.

I HAVE, I I HAVE ONE FLYER I DIDN'T WANNA INUNDATE.

I'LL JUST LEAVE IT HERE AND IF YOU ALL CAN HELP ME WITH THAT, I WOULD BE SO HONORED.

THANK YOU.

MOTION PASSES FIVE OH ITEM SIX ONE, DISCUSS AND CONSIDER ACTION REGARDING THE MEGASITE WATERLINE EASEMENT REQUESTS AND SUPPORT OF THE MEGASITE WATERLINES PROJECT ON THE INCORPORATION OWNED PROPERTY AT THE MEGASITE, UH, MR. CHAIR BOARD.

UH, THE, UH, EASEMENTS THAT YOU APPROVED AT THE LAST MEETING HAD TO BE AMENDED IN ORDER TO INCLUDE A SUBORDINATION CLAUSE WITH THE ALLIANCE BANK SINCE THE, UH, PROPERTY, UH, IS USED AS SECURITY, UH, ON THE LOAN WITH ALLIANCE.

AND SO WE'VE MADE THOSE UPDATES AND THEY'RE HERE, UM, WITH THAT CHANGE ONLY FOR PURPOSES OF YOUR APPROVAL.

UH, AND THE, UH, UH, REQUEST FOR, UM, CONSIDERATION REGARDING, UH, THE, UH, COSTS IS SOMETHING THAT, UM, I THE CITY'S GOT.

AND I UNDERSTAND THAT THEY'RE, UH, IT'S UNDER ADVISEMENT NOW.

SO, SO ALL WE'RE DOING IS JUST MAKING THE ADJUSTMENT OF THE SUBORDINATION LEAD.

CORRECT.

SO THAT MAKES THESE ACTUALLY, UM, UH, SUPERIOR ENTITLED TO THE LOAN.

UM, AND, UH, THE BANK WAS VERY, UM, COURTEOUS WITH US AND AND COOPERATED VERY QUICKLY TO GET THESE IN PLACE.

THAT'S SOMETHING THAT THEY'RE ALREADY GONNA BE, UH, UNDERSTANDING ON AS WE INTEND TO SELL IT IN PARCELS.

CORRECT.

LIKE, AS WE START SELLING LAND, THEY'RE, THEY KNOW THAT THEY'RE GONNA HAVE TO DO MORE SUBORDINATION LOANS ON SECTIONS OF THE PROPERTY AS WE SELL IT IN THE FUTURE, CORRECT? YES.

AND TH THOSE, THE, YOU KNOW, IN CONNECTION WITH A SALE, UH, SINCE THIS WASN'T THE SALE, UM, THE, UH, THAT'S ACTUALLY INCORPORATED AS PART OF THE TERMS, THE PROVISIONS IN THE LOAN ITSELF.

I REMEMBER THAT.

OKAY.

JUST WANTED MAKE SURE.

AND IF THERE'S NO OTHER QUESTIONS, I'LL MAKE THE MOTION TO APPROVE SIX ONE, UM, AS PRESENTED WITH THE ADJUSTMENT OF ADDING THE ABORTION SUBORDINATION LIEN, UM, TO OUR, WHAT IS IT? THE SUBORDINATION CLAUSE TO THE, TO THE EASEMENTS SUBORDINATION CLAUSE.

TO THE EASEMENT.

YEAH.

I'LL SECOND THAT MOTION.

[00:15:01]

ALL RIGHT.

SO WE HAVE A MOTION BY VICE CHAIR LUCAS, SECONDED BY TREASURER COLEMAN, UH, REGARDING SIX ONE AND WITH THE SUBORDINATION LIENS LISTED IN THE DOCUMENT.

UM, ANY DISCUSSION? HEARING NONE.

ROLL CALL SECRETARY CLANCY.

AYE.

VICE CHAIR LUCAS AYE.

CHAIR CARLSON AYE.

BOARD MEMBER OWENS AYE.

TREASURER COLEMAN.

AYE.

MOTION PASSES FIVE OH ITEM SIX TWO.

DISCUSSION REGARDING CURRENT CONTRACTUAL SERVICES PROVIDED IN THE CORPORATION AND THE ASSOCIATED CONTRACTS.

SO THIS WAS AN ITEM THAT WAS REQUESTED AT THE LAST MEETING UNDER FUTURE AGENDA ITEMS BY BOARD MEMBER THOMPSON.

UM, INCLUDED IN YOUR MATERIALS IN PREPARATION FOR THIS MEETING WAS A SPREADSHEET CONTAINING ALL OF OUR CURRENT VENDORS FOR F Y 23, WHICH IS OUR CURRENT FISCAL YEAR.

UM, AND ALONG WITH ANY INVOICES OR CONTRACTS THAT WERE ASSOCIATED, UH, IT IS A WORK IN PROGRESS.

UM, WE DO HAVE A FEW THAT ARE STILL OUTSTANDING, BUT ALL THOSE DOCUMENTS WERE IN THERE FOR YOUR REVIEW.

SO THE ONLY QUESTION I HAD, IS THERE A WAY TO CATEGORIZE THEM A LITTLE BIT BETTER ON THE SHAREPOINT OR EVEN IN THE SPREADSHEET? JUST BY TYPE INSTEAD OF LIKE, JUST KIND OF LIKE A BLANKET SPREADSHEET IN ADDITION TO THE DESCRIPTION? YEAH, SO LIKE IF YOU, I MEAN IT'S NOT, AT LEAST FROM MY EYES, IT'S NOT SUPER CONFUSING.

IT, IT WOULD JUST BE A LITTLE BIT EASIER FOR THE VENDORS TO KIND OF BE CLASSIFIED BY SECTOR VERSUS WHAT THE SERVICE IS BECAUSE IF I'M LOOKING AT IT CORRECTLY, YOU HAVE IT BY SERVICE, CORRECT? UH, I JUST HAVE THE VENDORS LISTED OUT AND THEN THE DESCRIPTION OF THEIR SERVICES AND THEN IF THE CONTRACT WAS AVAILABLE AND INCLUDED.

SO IT'S LIKE, AND THEN ANY ADDIT NOTES, IS THAT RIGHT? WHAT'S THAT? IT LOOKS LIKE 11 VENDORS.

IS THAT RIGHT? OUTSIDE OF THESE PEOPLE THAT ARNOLD KELLY AND YEAH, THERE WERE A FEW OUTSTANDING.

UH, WHAT I DID WAS I REQUESTED A DETAILED REPORT FROM FINANCE THAT SHOWS EVERYONE UNDER PROFESSIONAL AND CONTRACTUAL SERVICES.

SO TAKING THAT AND THEN GOING AND FINDING ALL THE ASSOCIATED DOCUMENTS SO THAT YOU GUYS COULD SEE ALL OF IT IN THERE.

SO DOES THE CITY COUNT AS A VENDOR? SO I HAVE THEM LISTED ON THERE BECAUSE THE OTHER PORTION OF THE REQUEST FROM BOARD MEMBER THOMPSON WAS ALL DEBT SERVICES AS WELL.

SO THAT'S WHY YOU'LL SEE THE ALLIANCE LOAN AND THE, THE LOAN FROM THE CITY AND THINGS LIKE THAT ON THERE AS WELL.

UM, AND THOSE WERE ALL PUBLIC DOCUMENTS AT THE TIME AS WELL.

IS THERE A WAY TO JUST ADD THIS TAB TO THAT RUNNING SPREADSHEET THAT WE HAVE WHERE IT LISTS ALL OF OUR OBLIGATIONS BY FISCAL YEAR AND THEN YOU CAN JUST ATTACH THIS TO THE END, THE CASH FLOWS? YEAH, I WOULD CHECK WITH FINANCE.

JUST, I DON'T WANNA MUDDY ANY WATERS IN THERE 'CAUSE THAT'S A PRETTY SPECIFIC UH, WORKBOOK FOR THEM.

SO I CAN MAKE THAT REQUEST.

ANN? YES, WE CAN DO THAT FOR YOU.

THANK YOU ANN.

HEY, THANK YOU.

ANY OTHER FURTHER COMMENTS ON SIX TWO? 'CAUSE THERE IS NO ACTIONS.

YEAH.

UH, THE T S T C AGREEMENT, IS THAT PAID BY THE E D C, THE 200,000 OR IS IT THE IT'S 125,000 ANNUALLY FOR US? YES.

JUST FOR THE E D C AND THE CITY HAS A SEPARATE AGREEMENT.

THE 75 DUNNO, BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT I'M LOOKING HERE AT.

THINK FOR TWENTY TWENTY TWO, A HUNDRED TWENTY 5,000 PLUS AN ADDITIONAL 75,000 TOTALING 200.

HMM.

I'M GONNA GO WITH, UH, MORE THAN LIKELY.

YES.

HOWEVER, I WOULD ALSO SAY THAT AT THE END OF THE DAY, OUR OBLIGATION IS JUST THE 1 25, SO OKAY.

I DON'T CARE IF THE CITY PAYS.

OKAY, I'LL JUST, I'LL JUST MAKE SURE YOU WANT, WE WERE PAYING 1 25 OR 200 SO IT'S ONE, IT'S 1 25 AS LONG AS I'VE BEEN HERE.

OKAY.

CHAIR, IF I MAY? YES SIR.

UM, BECAUSE YOU'RE NEW, UH, THAT T S T C OBLIGATION STARTED WITH THE CONSTRUCTION COSTS OF THE PRO OF THE PROJECT ITSELF.

AND SO WE ARE, UM, CONTRIBUTING TO DEBT SERVICE DURING THE BOND PERIOD THAT, THAT BUILT T SS T C.

OKAY.

AND BECAUSE IT'S INFRASTRUCTURE, THAT'S THE ONLY MEANS BY WHICH WE CAN, UM, SUPPORT THAT COST.

AND SO THAT'S HOW IT WAS RESOLVED.

SO IT'S THAT, THAT AMOUNT FOR ANOTHER LIKE 20 YEARS.

YES SIR.

THANK YOU.

ANY OTHER COMMENTS? HEARING NONE.

THANK YOU FOR PULLING THAT TOGETHER.

YEAH, YOU'RE WELCOME.

AND LIKE I SAID, THERE'S STILL SOME THAT ARE MISSING, SO IF YOU'D LIKE, I CAN CONTINUE THE EFFORTS UNTIL IT'S COMPLETED AND THEN YOU GUYS CAN DISCUSS AND TAKE ANY ACTION YOU'D DEEM APPROPRIATE.
