WE MOVE ONTO REGULAR AGENDA ITE [5) REGULAR AGENDA] FIVE A THIS IS OUR PUBLIC HEARING CONSIDERATION OF A CONDITIONAL PERMIT TO ALLOW A GAME ROOM USE AT USE AT 14745 W. SH 29, SUITE B ON APPROXIMATELY 0.81 ACRES OF LAND, PART OF AND OUT OF THE R.G. MILLICAN SURVEY, ABSTRACT [00:15:05] NO. 448, AND MORE PARTICULARLY DESCRIBED BY WILLIAMSON CENTRAL APPRAISAL DISTRICT PARCEL R022627, IN THE GENERAL COMMERCIAL/RETAIL (C3) ZONING DISTRICT, AS REQUIRED BY UNIFIE DEVELOPMENT CODE 4.09, TABLE 4-2. >> THANK YOU, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. THIS IS A CONDITIONAL USE PERMI REQUEST FOR A GAME ROOM AS THE MAYOR STATED. THE PROPERTY ITSELF IS APPROXIMATELY POINT IT 1 ACRES, BUT THE SUBJECTS SUBJECT COP IS ISOLATED TO THAT SWEET BE WITHI THE STRUCTURE WHICH IS APPROXIMATELY 580 SQUARE FEET. THEN THE PROPERTY IS CURRENTLY ZONED FOR C3, BUT THE USE OF A GAME ROOM IS ONLY ALLOWED BY A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AND I WILL KIND OF EXTREME WITH THAT IS ON THAT NEXT SLIDE. THE DEFINITION OF A GAME ROOM I A FOR-PROFIT BUSINESS WITH AN AMUSEMENT OR REDEMPTION MACHINES , AS YOU CAN SEE HIGHLIGHTED IN YELLOW COME AT THAT GAME ROOM IS A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT. JUST TO EXPLAIN WHAT A CONDITIONAL PURPOSE ESSENTIALLY THAT PI ON THAT CHART AS PERMITTED BY RAY. SO ANY OF THOSE THAT HAVE IP WOULD BE ALLOWED TO COME IN, GO THROUGH A CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY IN THEY WOULD BE ALLOWED, BUT THAT ADDITIONAL CONDITION IS BECAUSE OF A COMPATIBILITY WITH YOUR ADJACEN LAND, SO IT REQUIRES THAT ADDED LAYER. THIS ONE IS ALLOWED BY CUP, THAT'S WHY THIS APPLICATION IS BEFORE YOU TONIGHT. THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES, THI PROPERTY IS ON THE WEST SIDE OF TOWN, SOME OTHER USES OVER THER ARE WHITTLESEY AND SCARCE SUPPL AS WELL AS THIRSTY PENGUIN. TO THE EAST IS A SINGLE-FAMILY HOME EXISTING AND THEN THERE IS A PART THAT IS NOT DEVELOPED, BUT IT IS FOR RESIDENTIAL FOR MULTIFAMILY. ZONING, C3 C3, MOST OF ZONE THREE IS TO FOR C3 DISTRICT. MANY ARE ALLOWED BY RIGHT, RESTAURANTS, PERSONAL USES LIKE SALONS AND THINGS LIKE THAT. HOTELS, MEDICAL FACILITY, THOSE ARE ALL ALLOWED IN THIS ZONING DISTRICT. THE GAME ROOM IS A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT AND THAT DISTRICT. FOR FUTURE LAND USE CALLS FOR BOULEVARD PREDEVELOPMENT PRICE THAT FINDS THIS IS CONSISTENT WITH THAT BECAUSE IT'S A DEVELOPED SITE IN IT IS EXISTIN COMMERCIAL TODAY. THIS IS THE PROPOSED CONCEPT PLAN. WANT TO REITERATE THIS IS A CONCEPT PLAN AS PART OF THE APPLICATION. IS APPROXIMATELY 400 FOR THE GAMING FLOOR AND ADDITIONAL USE ARE SHOWN ON WE WILL CALL IT PLAN NORTHSIDE AT THIS WHICH IS FRONT OFFICE, RECEPTION, COFFEE AREA AS WELL AS RESTROOMS. THERE IS PROPOSED 20 STANDALONE MACHINES AS WELL AS 40 COMPUTER-BASED MACHINES. WHAT ALREADY APPLIES TO THIS IS THE SITE TO PAINT LIKE I SAID HAS THREE SUITES IN IT, THEY AL SHARE NINE PARKING SPACES WITH 188 SPACE, SO UNDER THE OLD CODE , THAT WAS COMPLIANT, UNDER OUR CURRENT EXISTING CODE, IT WOULD REQUIRE 19 SPACES, BUT BECAUSE THIS IS JUST A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT, IT WOUL BE ALLOWED TO EXIST UNDER ITS EXISTING CONDITIONS UNLESS THEY WERE ADDED CONDITIONS TO A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT. STAFF DID FIND THAT IT IS SEVERELY UNDER PARKED FOR APPROXIMATELY 60 MACHINES THAT ARE BEING PROPOSED. DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS AT? IN REVIEWING THIS, PART OF THE CONDITIONAL USE PROCESS PERMIT PROCESS IS COMPATIBILITY CONCERNS WITH YOUR ADJACENT NEIGHBORS AND COMPATIBILITY ISSUES THAT MIGHT ARISE FROM TH EXISTING SITE BECAUSE IT'S A NONCONFORMING SITE. STAFF FOUND THAT THE HOURS OF OPERATION THEY'RE PROPOSING, AN THIS IS ALL SUBMITTED THROUGH THE APPLICANT, THEY WOULD BE OPEN FROM 10:00 A.M. THROUGH 10:00 P.M. WITH THAT PEAK ACTIVITY TAKING PLACE BETWEEN SEVEN AND 9:30 P.M. IT'S CLOSE TO AN EXISTING HOME WHICH IS A CONCERN FOR COMPATIBILITY STANDARDS AND FEN BY LIMITING THE HOURS OF OPERATION, IT WOULDN'T REALLY ADDRESS A CONCERN THAT A RESIDENT WOULD HAVE IN THEIR HOME DURING THEIR PEAK HOURS OF OPERATION. IT IS UNDER PARKED AND AGAIN, THE ADJACENCY. IT IS ABOUT 65 FEET BUILDING TO BUILDING FROM THAT RESIDENTIAL IN THEN A LITTLE OVER 100 FEET FROM THE PROPOSED MULTIFAMILY THAT IS OWNED A LITTLE BIT FURTHER TO THE EAST. THERE ARE REQUIRED FINDINGS IN THE UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE. ARE NOT GOING TO READ THEM, THE WERE IN THE STAFF REPORT, BUT I YOU'D LIKE ME TO GO THROUGH THE ONE BY WHEN I CAN. BASICALLY IT WASN'T COMPLIANT [00:20:03] WITH THE MAJORITY OF THE FINDINGS, BUT THESE ARE THE TWO THAT WE DID FIND IT TO BE COMPLIANT WHICH IS IT IS MY CAR WITH THE OBJECTIVES OF THE REGULATIONS ESTABLISHED THROUGH A GAME ROOM AND IT WOULD COMPLY WITH EACH OF THOSE APPLICABLE PRIVATIONS AND REGULATIONS. THE REMAINING ONES HAVE TO DO WITH COMPATIBILITY OF THE EXISTING PERMITTING USES IN THE VICINITY AS WELL AS THE MINIMUM NECESSARY IMPACTS TO THE ADJACENT AREAS. GREEN AS THE ONES THAT ARE FAVORABLE IN THEN READ BEING THOSE THE ONES THAT ARE FOUND NOT TO BE COMPLIANT GREAT THIS ITEM BEFORE PLANNING AND ZONING AND WAS UNANIMOUSLY DECIDED AT THREE DISPENSER ROWBOATS AND STAFF AS RICK PROPOSING DENIAL FOR THIS ITEM AS WELL. I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. >> I'M GOING TO READ THE ORDINANCE IN OPEN UP THE PUBLIC PART OF THE HEARING AND THEN WE CAN HAVE ANY QUESTIONS IF THERE ARE ANY. THE ORDINANCE READS ORDINANCE O THE CITY FOR APPROVING A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR A GAME ROOM AT 14745 WEST STATE HIGHWAY 29 SUITE B SECTION TO THE AMENDING OF. THE UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE WHICH ADOPT ZONING DISTRICT REGULATIONS AND LOT DESIGN STANDARDS WITHIN THE CITY'S LIMITS AS WELL AS AN OFFICIAL ZONING MAP IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. TO REFLECT THE CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT FOR A CERTAIN PROPERTY PROVIDING FOR FINDINGS OF FACT, HEARING, ENACTMENT, EFFECTIVE DATE AND THE PROPER NOTICE AND MEETING. WE WILL NOW OPEN UP THIS PUBLIC HEARING AT 6:21 P.M. IS ANYONE HERE TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM? THEN WE WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AT 61:00 AND I WILL OPE IT UP TO ANY QUESTIONS FROM COUNCIL. >> BASED ON THE RECOMMENDATION THAT I MOVED TO DENY THE CONDITIONAL PERMIT USE OF THE SITE. >> SECOND. TO GET MOTIONS MADE AND SECONDED . ALL IN FAVOR? 6-0, THE MOTION WILL PASS. LIVING TO ITEM FIVE A, DISCUSSION AND CONSIDERATION AN POSSIBLE ACTION ON A RESOLUTION ADOPTING THE LIBERTY HILL STRATEGIC PLAN 2030. THIS WILL BE PRESENTED TO US BY ERROR STAFF LEAD AT THE MORRISON . >> WE ARE HERE TONIGHT TO REQUEST THE FORMAL ADOPTION OF THE LIBERTY HILL 2030 STRATEGIC PLAN. ONE QUESTION WE OFTEN HEARD THROUGH THIS PROCESS IS WHAT EXACTLY IS A STRATEGIC PLAN? SIMPLY PUT IT'S A ROADMAP FOR THE CITY'S FUTURE THAT REFLECTS THE COMMUNITY'S PRIORITIES, WANTS, AND NEEDS, AND GUIDES TH CITY'S DECISIONS AND DIRECTION OVER THE NEXT 3-5 YEARS. AS YOU MAY RECALL THEY KICK THI OFF IN APRIL WITH OUR FIRST LARGE PUSH INMATE AT WHIMSY AND WONDER FOR PEOPLE TO DO THE SURVEY. SINCE THEN WE HAVE CONTINUED TO GATHER FEEDBACK THROUGH SEVERAL ENGAGEMENT OPPORTUNITIES INCLUDING OUR TWO DAY THINK TAKE , COMMUNE YOU BARB WORKSHOPS AND SMALLER GROUP DISCUSSIONS. ALL OF THAT INPUT HAS HELPED SHAPE THIS PLAN BEFORE YOU TONIGHT ENSURING THAT REFLECTS THE VISION OF OUR COMMUNITY WHILE PROVIDING THE FRAMEWORK T GUIDE THE CITY'S CONTINUED GROWTH. WE WANTED THIS TO BE MORE THAN JUST A PLAN ON PAPER, BUT SOMETHING WE CAN ACTIVELY WORK TO WORK WITH CLEAR ACTION ITEMS THAT ALLOW US TO TRACK THE PROGRESS AND MEASURE THE SUCCES OF THIS PLAN. MOVING FORWARD, THIS PLAN WILL HELP GUIDE OUR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN, OUR ANNUAL BUDGET AND OVERALL DECISION-MAKING FOR THE CITY. TO MAKE SURE THAT THOSE DECISIONS ALIGNED WITH THE COMMUNITY'S VISION FOR LIBERTY HILL. YOU WILL HEAR MORE ABOUT THOSE ACTION ITEMS TONIGHT AND HOW THEY WILL HELP US BRING THIS PLAN TO LIFE VERY DAVID WITH FUTURE IQ WILL WALK YOU THROUGH THE PROCESS, HIGHLIGHT WHAT WE HEARD FROM THE COMMUNITY, AND PRESENT THE FINAL STRATEGIC PLAN . WITH THAT, I WILL TURN IT OVER TO DAVID. >> THANK YOU. WANTED TO TAKE A FEW MINUTES HERE TO HIT ON HIGHLIGHTS OF WHAT WE HEARD THROUGH THE CONSULTATION OR THE ENGAGEMENT PROCESS. AS ABBY SAID, THEY WERE A KEY PART OF THIS PLANNING PROCESS WAS TO GET COMMUNITY INPUT AND THAT HAS BEEN A BIG FOCUS. THE STRATEGIC PLAN, WE ARE REPRESENTING THIS IS A COMMUNIT AND STAKEHOLDER IN FORM AND SO IT'S BEEN HEAVILY GUARDED BY TH COMMUNITY. IS DESIGNED TO HELP GUIDE YOUR GROWTH AND HOW YOU MANAGE GROWT IN THE FUTURE. AN IMPORTANT PART IS ABOUT PERCEIVING THE DISTINCTIVE [00:25:01] CHARACTER. THAT IS SOMETHING I WANT TO TAL A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THAT WE HEAR A LOT OF PEOPLE REFERENCE THROUGH THE ENGAGEMENT PROCESS CARRIED IT'S BEEN A SIX-MONTH PROCESS, SO BE ALLOWED AS MUCH TIME AS WE COULD END OPPORTUNITIES FOR PEOPLE TO WEIGH IN ON THIS. WE ARE REALLY PLEASED WITH THE ENGAGEMENT WE GOT. YOU WILL SEE IN THE PLAN ITSELF WE HIGHLIGHT SOME OF THE ENGAGEMENT METRICS. THE MAILING LIST FOR THE PROCES WHICH WAS WAS 471 PEOPLE, SO PEOPLE OBVIOUSLY PARTICIPATED I MULTIPLE SESSIONS, BUT WE HAD REALLY GOOD HIGH-QUALITY DATA POINTS, TO REALLY EFFECTIVE SURVEYS, INTERVIEWS IN PERSON SESSIONS AND SO ON. WE ALSO HAD SOME REALLY EXCELLENT STAFF SESSIONS TO HEL TRANSLATE COMMUNITY ASPIRATIONS AND PRACTICALITY IS HOW DO YOU IMPLEMENT AND DELIVER ON THE PLAN. WE ALSO HAD A UNIQUE PROJECT WEBSITE AND WE HAD NEWSLETTERS AND SOCIAL MEDIA AND SO ON WHIC I THINK WAS VERY EFFECTIVE AT REACHING THE COMMUNITY. JUST TO HIT A LITTLE ON THE PROCESS. I WANT TO PRESENT SOME ITEMS JUST TO RECAP THAT YOU HAVE SEE BEFORE. BUT I ALSO WANT TO SHOW YOU YOU DATA WE HAVEN'T TALKED ABOUT. WE HAD THE THINK TANK WHERE WE DEVELOPED THESE DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF THE FUTURE. WE USE THAT AS A TESTING GROUND TO ASK PEOPLE WHAT DID THEY SEE AS THEY'RE PREFERRED FUTURE. THE BLUE DOTS ARE IN THAT SCENARIO. WHAT WE HEARD REALLY WAS PEOPLE WERE SAYING THEY WANT COUNCIL AND STAFF TO BE MUCH MORE IN TH FOREFRONT OF MANAGING STRATEGICALLY THE GROWTH IN THI COMMUNITY. THEY ALSO WANT TO PRESERVE THE DISTINCTIVE SMALL-TOWN CHARACTE THAT LIBERTY HILL IS KNOWN FOR HER AGE YOU CAN SEE THE BLUE DOTS IN THE VERY UPPER RIGHT THERE. WAS SURPRISED BY THE STATE SOA WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE COULD VALIDATE THIS BECAUSE WHA PEOPLE WERE SAYING AS THEY WANTED SOME PRETTY BOLD ACTION ON REALLY SORT OF MANAGING GROWTH, BUT ALSO PROTECTING YOU REPUTATION IN YOUR CHARACTER. SO IN THE SECOND SURVEY, AND THIS IS DAY THAT I HAVEN'T SHOW YOU, THIS IS THE SECOND SURVEY OF 200 PEOPLE, WE ASK PEOPLE QUESTIONS AROUND THOSE AXES AND THEN I PLOTTED THE RESPONSES TOGETHER. YOU CAN SEE IF I JUST TOGGLE BACK AND FORTH, THE DATA FROM THE THINK TAPE AND THE IN PERSO WORKSHOPS LOOK LIKE THAT, THE DATA FROM THE SURVEY WAS VERY SIMILAR IN FACT, PERHAPS EVEN SLIGHTLY STRONGER IN TERMS OF LEADING TO SOME OF THAT UPPER RIGHT CORNER. THERE WE'RE OVER RESPONSE FOR THE RESPONSES IN THAT VERY UPPE RIGHT CORNER. WHAT'S REALLY INTERESTING, THE DOTTED LINE THERE IS THE MEDIAN YOU CAN ALSO LOOK AT THE AVERAG ON THE PROJECT WEBSITE. AND THIS PARTICULAR SURVEY YOU CAN LOOK AT DIFFERENT COHORTS I THE COMMUNITY IT CAN LOOK AT HO LONG PEOPLE OF LIQUOR AND SO ON. WHAT'S INTERESTING IS THAT DATA SETS ARE THAT RESPONSE IS VERY STABLE MATTER WHICH GROUP YOU LOOK AT. THERE'S VERY LITTLE DIFFERENCE. PERHAPS PEOPLE WHO HAVE LIVED HERE LONGER ARE A LITTLE MORE INCLINED TO LEAN TO THAT DISTINCTIVE CHARACTER, BUT IT'S A VERY STRONG DATA SET AND GIVE US A LOT OF CONFIDENCE THAT THE PLAN IS REFLECTING WITH PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITY WANT. THERE ARE SOME OTHER SORT OF QUESTIONS WE ASK IN THE SECOND SURVEY ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF STRATEGIC APPROACHES AND THE BLUE IS WHERE PEOPLESOFT CERTAI ELEMENTS AS STRONG. YOU CAN SEE ALL THESE ISSUES ABOUT PROACTIVELY ANTICIPATING IN GUIDING GROWTH, REINFORCING STRONG SENSE OF PLACE AND SO ON ALL CAME OUT VERY STRONG. AGAIN SORT OF CONSISTENT MESSAGING COMING THROUGH FROM THE COMMUNITY. THAT LET US TO THE FORMING OF THE STRATEGIC PILLARS IN I THIN I PRESENTED THIS TO YOU LAST YEAR LAST TIME I WAS TALKING TO YOU. WE WORKED A LOT AFTER THAT TO BUILD OUT THE ACTIONS UNDER THESE PILLARS. THE SIX PILLARS ARE THE BIG FOCUS AREAS. HOW DO WE GET TO THEIR PREFERRE FUTURE? IN THE STRATEGIC ACTION PLAN BE PRESENTED EACH OF THE PILLARS A THREE-PAGE, TO ONE PAGES ABOUT WHY THAT PILLAR IS IMPORTANT, WHAT WE HEARD ABOUT RESIDENCE O FROM RESIDENTS ABOUT THAT PILLA AND ALSO CONNECTING IT TO FUTUR TRENDS. THEN THERE WERE FOUR ACTIONS UNDER EACH PILLAR AND CLINICIAN OF THOSE. THEN WE'VE ALSO LAID OUT A SET OF COMMENTS. THESE ARE BASICALLY DIRECT QUOTES FROM PEOPLE IN TERMS OF INPUT ON THE SURVEYS TO SORT OF BRING IT TO LIFE. THAT IS THE SORT OF SUMMARY OF COMMENTS. ALSO ON THE PROJECT WEBSITE, YO CAN ACTUALLY LOOK AT THE RAW DATA. THIS IS A DROP DOWN HERE ON THE SECOND SURVEY. YOU CAN GO INTO THE INPUT ON TH STRATEGIC PLAN. WE ASKED PEOPLE TO WEIGH IN ON EACH OF THOSE PILLARS. YOU CAN READ ALL THE VERBATIM COMMENTS. IS QUITE NICE TO READ THEM TRAD PEOPLE HAVE A MOTION ABOUT TOPICS IN YOU CAN SEE THE A [00:30:02] MOTION GET EXPRESSED AND THERE WERE SOME VERY THOUGHTFUL IDEAS AND OBVIOUSLY ISSUES THAT ARE I PEOPLE'S MINDS, BUT IT'S INTERESTING TO BE ABLE TO READ THROUGH THAT. WE HAVE OBVIOUSLY SUMMARIZED LE UP. I ALWAYS THINK IT'S IMPORTANT I THESE SORTS OF PROCESSES TO SHO THE RAW DATA BECAUSE PEOPLE WAN TO SEE THEIR VOICE AND THEY WAN TO BE ABLE TO SEE HOW THEIR VOICE CONTRIBUTED TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE PLAN. WHEN ALSO DID SOME PRIORITIZATION ON THE PILLARS, WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THOSE PILLARS WERE VALIDATED YOU CAN SEE THERE THEY ALL SCORED HIGH ON IMPORTANCE. THE TOOTH OUT WHERE THE STRONGEST IN TERMS OF IMPORTANC WERE AROUND BUILDING AHEAD OF GROWTH IN PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE. THAT IS THE THEME THAT RUNS THROUGH ALL THE ENGAGEMENT. PEOPLE WANTING COUNCIL, STAFF, CITY, TO GET AHEAD OF GROWTH THINK ABOUT IT STRATEGICALLY, PLAN FOR ITS. AND NO THOMAS IN THE TEAM ARE DOING A LOT OF WORK ON THAT. THAT IS VERY STRONGLY REINFORCE BY THE COMMUNITY INPUT. MIGHT LAST SORT OF COMMENTS HERE , JUST SOME HIGH-LEVEL STRATEGIC INSIGHTS. THIS IS WHAT WE'VE HEARD FROM THE COMMUNITY OVER AND OVER. INFRASTRUCTURE READINESS SHOULD SHAPE THEIR GROWTH DECISIONS. THIS IS SOMETHING WE HEARD PEOPLE TALK ABOUT A LOT THAT THERE A CONCERN ABOUT PRESSURE ON RESOURCES LIKE WATER, GROWTH MIGHT SOUND GOOD, BUT HOW DO WE MANAGE THAT AND SUPPORT THAT. THAT IS SOMETHING THAT IS VERY ON PEOPLE'S MINDS. COMMUNITY CHARACTER IS AN IMPORTANT ISSUE FOR PEOPLE IN THIS COMMUNITY. IT NEEDS PRACTICAL EXPRESSION AND SUPPORT THROUGH DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS, RESOURCE PROTECTION AND SO ON WE PULLED OUT A RANGE OF ACTIONS ABOUT THAT IN THE PLAN ITSELF. THERE IS ALSO PERHAPS MORE SOCIAL TOPICS WHERE PEOPLE ARE LOOKING TO MAKE SURE THAT THE CHARACTER OF THE COMMUNITY, THE CONNECTIVITY OF THE COMMUNITY I REINFORCED. THE SENSE OF BELONGING AND PLACED. PEOPLE TALKED ABOUT VERY CONSCIOUS THAT THEY PEOPLE HAVE LIVED HERE FOR A LONG TIME, BUT THERE ARE A LOT OF NEW PEOPLE HERE AND HOW DO YOU DELIBERATEL BUILD THAT FABRIC AND CONNECT THIS PEOPLE TOGETHER. SO THERE WERE ACTIONS IN THERE ABOUT PUBLIC SPACES AND THINGS LIKE THAT AND INVENTS THAT CAN ENCOURAGE THOSE CONNECTIONS. THE OTHER PART IS THE WAY THE STRATEGIC PILLARS ARE DESIGNED TO STAY REINFORCE EACH OTHER. SORT OF LIKE DOWNTOWN BEING THA BEATING HEART OF THE COMMUNITY AS WELL AS AN IMPORTANT COMMERCIAL CENTER. THERE IS ALSO, THE LAST POINT THERE, THERE IS A CAUTIONARY NOTE THAT THERE IS A CERTAIN SKEPTICISM IN PARTS OF THE COMMUNITY WHICH I'M SURE YOU HERE AND YOU WOULD BE AWARE OF. AND REALLY AS SKEPTICISM OR FRUSTRATION ABOUT THINGS NOT GETTING DONE. NOT BEING ON THE GAME RIGHT SO THINK VISIBLE FOLLOW-THROUGH ON THE PLAN WILL BE IMPORTANT FOR PEOPLE TO FEEL CONFIDENCE THAT OKAY, WE HAD OUR SAY, DID ANYBODY REALLY LISTEN, DID ANYBODY DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. WHAT WE DID TO ADDRESS THAT, TH FIRST DOCUMENT YOU HAVE IN YOUR PACKET IS THE STRATEGIC ACTION PLAN. WE HAVE DESIGNED THAT AS A MEMORIALIZATION OF WHAT WE HEAR FROM THE COMMUNITY AND STAKEHOLDERS. IT'S REALLY THE AGGREGATION OF WHAT PEOPLE SAID, THEIR VISION IN THEIR IDEAS ABOUT ACTIONS. BUT IT'S NOT REALLY AN IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY. WE DID BUILD AN IMPLEMENTATION FRAMEWORK AS A SECOND DOCUMENT, WHICH IS REALLY MORE ABOUT HOW DO YOU OPERATIONALIZE THE IDEAS THAT CAME FROM THE COMMUNITY. I'M NOT GOING TO GO THROUGH THESE, THOSE PAGES OF THEM IT'S A FIRST CUT, THE SECOND DOCUMEN IS VERY MUCH A LIVING DOCUMENT. IT IS SOMETHING YOU COULD IMAGINE WOULD GET WORKED ON THE DEPARTMENT DIRECTORS WOULD WORK ON IT, STAFF WHAT SORT OF WORK THEIR WAY THROUGH THAT. WE HAVE LAID OUT A SET OF TOPIC THERE LIKE ACTIONS, SORT OF CURRENT STATUS OF THOSE, PROPOSED PRIORITY LEVELS AND AL THOSE THINGS, PARTNERS, LEADS, ALL OF THOSE. THIS IS WHERE YOU CAN HAVE A DOCUMENT THAT YOU CAN USE AS A WAY TO TRACK PROGRESS UNTIL ONE. OBVIOUSLY STAFF ARE GOING TO NEED TO PRIORITIZE AND THERE WILL BE CONFLICTING PRIORITIES AND SO ON. THIS DOCUMENT GIVES A GOOD STAR FOR EVERYTHING. THE NEXT STEPS IN TERMS OF IMPLEMENTATION, WHAT WE'RE PROPOSING IS STAFF TO REFINE THAT IMPLEMENTATION FRAMEWORK INTO A REALISTIC PROGRAM PAGE YOU HAVE TO THINK ABOUT BUDGETS AND STAFF AND TIME AND SO ON. AS ABBY SAID, THAT WILL CASCADE DOWN INTO YOUR BUDGETING PROCES AND YOUR CAPITAL PLANNING, BUT THEN ALSO WE THINK THERE'S AN OPPORTUNITY HERE TO BE ABLE TO USE THIS TO CELEBRATE BACK TO THE COMMUNITY ABOUT WHAT'S BEEN ACCOMPLISHED EACH YEAR AS PART OF THAT ACTION PLAN AND SHE RUN THROUGH THAT PLANNING CYCLE. THOSE OF THE COMMENTS I WANTED TO ADD. I WANTED TO CALL OUT A FEW HIGHLIGHTS THERE IN TERMS OF WHAT WE HEARD FROM THE COMMUNITY [00:35:01] . I THINK IT'S A VERY ROBUST DATA SET. I HAVE A LOT OF CONFIDENCE IN THAT THEY THAT AS SOMEBODY WHO READ IT ALL, LISTEN TO IT ALL. IT IS VERY STRONG CORE FOCUS THAT THE COMMUNITY HAS. IN THE COMMUNITY THERE'S A LOT OF DIFFERENT VOICES, BUT THERE' A VERY STRONG CONSENSUS AND THA DATA ABOUT WHERE PEOPLE WANT THIS COMMUNITY CHECO. WHAT ROLE THEY WANT THE CITY TO PLAY, AND THERE ARE OUTLIERS OF COURSE, BUT THERE'S A STRONG CORE TO THAT END A VERY STRONG SET OF THREADS THAT RUN THROUGH THAT WHICH I THINK ARE REFLECTE IN THAT PLAN. MY OTHER COMMENT AS I WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE ABBY MORRISON, I REALLY APPRECIATE HER FOR HER LEADERSHIP AND GUIDANCE IN THIS PROCESS. SHE HAS BEEN FANTASTIC TO WORK WITH HER AND HER TEAM AND THOMA AND HIS TEAM THROUGHOUT THIS. ALSO TO WORK WITH YOU AND YOUR COMMUNITY AS WELL, SO THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE WORK YOU'VE DONE. IT'S BEEN, JUST THE ENGAGEMENT ALONE I THINK THIS COUNCIL HAS REALLY APPRECIATED THE EFFORTS FROM YOU IN ALSO THE STAFF HERE IN LIBERTY HILL. IT'S EXCITING TO SEE OUR COMMUNITY GOT INVOLVED THIS TIM AROUND AND DOES COUNCIL HAVE ANYTHING THEY WANT TO SHARE? OR ANY QUESTIONS TO ASK? OKAY, WE HAVE A MOTION? KICK YOUR GOOD? >> I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT THE PROCESS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN A STRATEGIC PLAN AND THAT I AM VERY HAPPY TO SEE THA WE HAVE AN IMPLEMENTATION PLAN BECAUSE SOME OF YOU PROBABLY WOULD HAVE KNOWN I WOULD'VE ASKED FOR THAT IF WE DIDN'T HAV IT BECAUSE IT DOESN'T DO ANY GOOD FOR THIS PLAN TO SIT ON TH SHELF. SO I WILL SAY WHEN WE TALK ABOU CASCADING IT DOWN AS OUR CITY MANAGER WILL NOTICE, OUR INTENTION WHEN WE HIRED HIM QUESTION CASCADE THIS DOWN TO HIS PERFORMANCE EVALUATION IN THEN HE WILL BE CASCADING DOWN TO SOMEONE ELSE, BUT THAT IS HO WE WORK AND HE KNOWS THAT AND I WAS HIS IDEA AS WELL THAT'S HOW WE LOOK TO DO AND ACCOUNTABILIT FOR OURSELVES IN ALL OF US, TO, THE CITIZENS THEY DO IT I'M VER PLEASED TO SEE THE PROCESS THUS FAR. I AM HAPPY TO MAKE THE MOTION THE RESOLUTION NUMBER, LET ME G OVER HERE. THERE IT IS. I MOVED TO APPROVE THE RESOLUTION ADOPTING THE LIBERTY HILL'S STRATEGIC PLAN 2030 AS PRESENTED TO GET I WILL SECOND. KEY ALL IN FAVOR? 6-0, MOTION PASSES. THANK YOU STEFAN THANK YOU DAVID . WE ARE EXCITED TO GET STARTED O SOME PROJECTS. MOVING ON TO ITEM FIVE C, DISCUSSION AND AWARDING SOLICITATION AS 20 TO SIX DASH 005 AND DESIGNATING AS THE CITY 'S PRIMARY DEPOSITORY FOR AN INITIAL TWO-YEAR TERM WITH UP T THREE ONE-YEAR RENEWALS AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE NECESSARY DOCUMENTS. THIS WILL BE LED BY JOSH ARMSTRONG. >> THINK YOU'LL EVERY FIVE YEAR TEXAS LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE REQUIRES US TO DO AN RFP FOR DEPOSITORY SERVICES. IT BEEN WITH OUR CURRENT DEPOSITORY SINCE 2017. WE ARE CURRENTLY IN OUR FINAL CONTRACT EXTENSION IT ENDS AT THE ENDS OF THIS YEAR. BACK IN JUNE WE STARTED THE PROCESS OF ISSUING THE SOLICITATION. WE PUT IT IN THE WILL COAST SUN NEWSPAPER. WE PUT IT ON THE BONFIRE WEBSITE . THE BONFIRE VENDORS LIST. AND THE STATE OF TEXAS WEBSITE PURPOSES SOMETHING THAT WE WILL BE DOING EVERY FIVE YEARS AT TH MAXIMUM, BUT WE ARE PROPOSING A TWO-YEAR CONTRACT WITH UP TO THREE ONE-YEAR RENEWALS, SO THA GIVES US AN INITIAL TWO YEARS. >> INTO THE DEPOSITORY AND MAKE SURE EVERYTHING IS MEETING OUR NEEDS AND THEN SUBSEQUENT YEARS OF BEFORE WE HAVE TO DO THIS AGAIN FOR ADAPTING SAID WE DON' HAVE TO WAIT FIVE YEARS, WE JUS WE HAVE TO DO IT WITHIN FIVE YEARS. BUT IT'S SOMETHING THAT I BELIEVE IN, THAT WE LOOK AT OUR VENDORS EVERY FEW YEARS TO MAKE SURE THEY ARE MEETING OUR NEEDS AND VICE VERSA AND REALISTICALL COME UP WITH A DEPOSITORY WE NEED A GOOD PARTNERSHIP THERE'S NO FISCAL IMPACT IN THIS, IT'S JUST CHANGING BANKS THAT'S ALL WE ARE DOING. DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR THIS PARTICULAR ITEM? >> I DO NOT. I THINK WE'RE GOOD. >> I MOVED TO APPROVE THE RESOLUTION AWARDING SOLICITATIO [00:40:02] AS 20 TO SIX DASH 005 DESIGNATING FOSS BANK BANK AS THE SYNTHASE FOR THE THREE-YEAR TERM AND ENTER TO YOUR TWO-YEAR RENEWALS. >> I WILL SECOND. >> MOTION MADE AND SECONDED. 6-0, THE MOTION PASSES GREAT THANKS, JOSH. DISCUSSION AND CONSIDERATION OF POSSIBLE ACTION ON A 290,000 CONSTRUCTION PROPOSAL WITH G2 CONSTRUCTION SERVICES FOR DOWNTOWNS STREETSCAPE IMPROVEMENTS IN AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO AUTHORIZE NECESSARY DOCUMENTS AND THIS WILL BE LED BY OUR DEPUTY CITY MANAGER. >> GOOD EVENING. WE ARE GOING TO MAKE STREETSCAP IMPROVEMENTS IN TOMTOM CARD TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF THE SCOPE O WORK, THE PLANS THAT YOU SEE ON THE BOTTOM OF THIS ARE THAT STREETSCAPE WAS CONDEMNED CHANGED A LITTLE BIT GREAT THEY MOVED ALL OF THAT AROUND, SO THIS WOULD MODIFY THOSE OF VEGETARIAN AREAS TO BE A BOARDWALK STYLE OF DECKING. THE NEXT SLIDE HAS WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE, BUT A BOARDWALK STYLE, IT'S AN ELEVATED DECKING WHICH GETS AWAY IT OF ALL OF TH VEGETATION. THEN THEY HAVE ONGOING MAINTENANCE CONCERNS FROM KEEPING THAT TRIM DOWN. THE TREES ARE STAINED, WE'RE NO TAKEN THE TREES OUT. BUT IT ALSO INSTALLS DRIP IRRIGATION STUDS. THIS IS TO PUT PLANTERS FOR DOWNTOWNS ABOVEGROUND ANSWERS FOR EVERYTHING IN THE DRIP IRRIGATION SUB SO THAT WAY WE DON'T HAVE TO GO AND AND WATER ALL OF THESE PLANTERS WHICH IS PRETTY BIG MAINTENANCE TASK. AND THERE ARE STREETLIGHTS INCLUDED IN THIS THAT ACTUALLY INCLUDE FUTURE BANNER AND WAVIN SIGNS VERY THEY WERE STARVED AS PART OF THE ORIGINAL STREETSCAP ENCAMPMENT SO THEY PUT THE CONDUIT IN THERE COME UP FOR TH LIGHT WE'RE NEVER PUT IN THE EXISTING STREETLIGHTS THAT ARE ON THE POLLS NOW, WHEN THOSE POLLS ARE REMOVED THEY'RE JUST STARTING TO BEGIN THE WORK TO GET THE POLLS RELOCATED. WHEN THOSE ARE GONE, THE STREETLIGHTS ARE GONE TO THEIR WILL BE NO STREETLIGHTS AFTER THOSE POLES ARE GONE. THESE ARE MORE SHORTER, 30-FOOT POLES AND GREAT THEY ARE SORT O FIGHTS, BUT THEY ALSO ALLOW, THEY'RE GOING TO MATCH THE SAME THEME YOU SEE, WATER TOWER PARKING LOT AND EVERYWHERE ELSE I DON'T KNOW HOW MOST TO DESCRIBE IT, IT'S AN OLDER THEMED STYLE, WHEN ONE YEAR AT TIME. THEY ARE METALLIC LOOKING MIGHT POST THAT ARE VERY SIMILAR TO WHAT YOU SEE ON THE STRAIGHT SIDES AND DOWNTOWN AND MATCH TH SAME AMBIENCE IS EAT ON THEIR PLATE IT ALSO ALLOWS FOR A FUTURE BANNER IN CASE WHEN WE START MOVING FORWARD, IF WE SAY WE REALLY WANT TO HAVE BANNERS IN WAYFINDING, THIS ALLOWS US T INTEGRATE THAT INTO THEM. WHILE THE LIGHTS MIGHT BE ON, WE'RE NOT GOING TO TURN THE LIGHTS ON UNTIL AFTER THE PC POLES ARE GONE. TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA, GENERALLY WHAT THIS WOULD LOOK LIKE, OUTSIDE OF THE FACT THAT I ACCIDENTALLY HAVE THE STREETLIGHTS TURNED TOWARDS THE STREETS INSTEAD OF THE WALKWAY. I DIDN'T NOTICE IT UNTIL YESTERDAY. HOWEVER, TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE. YOU SEE THEY ARE NORMALLY VEGETATED AREAS, SO IF ANY OF YOU HAVE EVER BEEN TO DOWNTOWN ROUND ROCK, THEY HAVE PARK LET' THINK WHAT THEY CALL THEM THERE. GENERALLY THE SAME IDEA. YOU CAN WALK ON IT, YOU CAN PUT BENCHES THERE, IF THERE IS MORE OF AN OUTSIDE SEATING FOR A RESTAURANT OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT , THEY COULD HAVE OUTSIDE SEATING ON THOSE AS WELL AND BE ABLE TO HAVE MORE IN MORE OUTDOOR SEATING, MORE ABILITY FOR THESE PEOPLE TO HAVE OUTDOO AREAS. WANT TO SWAP THIS TO FIT NEXT PICTURE, SO THEN WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT IT FROM THE OTHER SIDE, SO SAME IDEA LOOKING AT THE PARK LET'S AND THEN AGAIN FOR STREETLIGHTS, SAME IDEA AND ALSO WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT ALL OF THOSE PLANTERS IS WELCOME AT THOSE WOULD COME IN AFTER THE STUBS WEAR OUT. AS YOU CAN SEE THAT BANNERS CAN BE CUSTOM MADE. WE DID THE MOST RECENT ONE WAS THE 50 YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF THE SCULPTURE FESTIVAL, BUT IT COUL BE ANY EVENT YOU WANT TO HIGHLIGHT GREAT YOU CAN USE US FOR ANYTHING HE WANT TO APPEAR THAT'S KIND OF THE IDEA OF WHAT THOSE ARE FOR. SO IF WE LOOK BACK ON THIS. THE PROJECT WILL BE FUNDED THROUGH THE GENERAL GENERAL FUN AND THROUGH RESERVE FUNDING. WE DISCUSSED THIS WITH THE EDC. MY NOTES IN THE COVERSHEET IS ACTUALLY INCORRECT GREAT IT WAS 40 PERCENT OR $120,000 WHICH COMES OUT TO $116,000. [00:45:04] SO MY APOLOGIES ON MY FAT FINGE IN THE NUMBER ON THE SUMMARY ON THE COVER SHEET. IT WOULD BE 40 PERCENT OF THE FUNDING WOULD BE COVERED THROUG THE DEVELOPMENT AND THE REST FROM THE CITY GENERAL FUND. HAS TO GO BACK TO THE PORT, THE TOLD US HERE'S WHAT WERE COMFORTABLE, BUT WE STUFF TO RATIFY IT THROUGH THEIR BOARD A WELL. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WERE PROMOTING THE DOWNTOWN UTILIZATION AND GIVE THESE BUSINESSES A MORE ACTIVE USE OF THIS REFERENCE AND ALSO KIND OF JIVE IN WHAT THAT DOWNTOWN DISTRICT PROJECTS WE ARE DOING. I AM HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE AND THE CONTRACTOR WE HAVE IS ALSO HERE IN THE AUDIENCE IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS FOR THEM. >> WE'VE HAD THIS DISCUSSION SO YOU KNOW, I AM CONFIDENT STAFF WILL ALWAYS FOLLOW OUR OWN CITY ORDINANCES IN THIS REGARD WITH LIGHTING AND OTHER THINGS. >> CORRECT. WE HAD SOME BACK-AND-FORTH. WE ALWAYS HAVE BACK-AND-FORTH O THIS, BUT THERE'S ANOTHER SWING AT THIS COMPANY SO THEY STILL HAVE TO GO THROUGH PERMITTING, IT'S GOT TO GO THROUGH THE PLANNING AND BUILDING INSPECTIO SO THERE'S STILL ANOTHER SWING OF THIS IN CASE MY FIVE -YEAR-OLD SKY MIND DOESN'T CATC WITH THE PLANNERS ACTUALLY CATCH . >> WITH THAT I MOVED TO APPROVE THE 290,000 CONSTRUCTION WITH G CONSTRUCTION SERVICES FOR DOWNTOWNS STREETSCAPE IMPROVEMENTS AND AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE NECESSARY DOCUMENTS. >> I WILL SECOND. >> MOTION MADE AND SECONDED. ALL IN FAVOR. 6-0, MOTION PASSES. >> THANK YOU. >> EXCELLENT.

THIS WILL BE LED BY RICHARD R PARKS AND RECREATION DIRECTOR. >> CONSUL, THANK YOU FOR TAKING TIME TO LISTEN TO MY PROPOSAL, THE CITY PARK IMPROVEMENTS THAT WE ARE GOING TO DO WILL COME IN PHASES BECAUSE IT IS A DEPARTMENT AS A PARK ITSELF IT' GROWING IN VERY TRAINED TO KEEP UP WITH THOSE CHANGES SO I AM PROPOSING A PROJECT OF $330,000 AND THE GOAL IS TO IMPROVE THE PARK ITSELF, BUT ALSO THE AQUATIC FACILITY IMPROVEMENTS, PHASE ONE FOCUS IS ON SAFETY, ACCESSIBILITY AND RECREATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES. G2 CONSTRUCTION SERVICES SUBMITTED A REVISED PROPOSAL. THE PROJECT GOAL IN ITSELF IS T ENHANCE CITY PARK IS A SAFER MORE ACCESSIBLE WELCOMING AND ENJOYABLE RECREATIONAL DESTINATION. PHASE TO WILL INCLUDE COMMERCIA FILTRATION UPGRADES, ELECTRICAL AND HEATING IMPROVEMENTS, UV DISINFECTION AND LIQUID CHEMICA SYSTEMS JUST OVERALL IMPROVEMENTS TO EXISTING STUFF WE HAVE. THE BIG ONE IS THE BASKETBALL COURT. WE ARE WANTING TO COME AGAIN, THIS IS CONCEPTUAL IT'S NOT THE ACTUAL PORT ITSELF, BUT WE ARE GOING TO HAVE LIGHTING, DARK SK LIGHTING TO HELP INCREASE FOOT TRAFFIC IN THE PARK, THE BASKETBALL COURT ITSELF WILL BE FENCED IN. IT WOULD BE A CHAIN-LINK FENCE THAT WAY IT HELPS THE BULLS FRO ROLLING OFF AND KIDS HAVING TO CHASE IT. IT WILL BE IMPROVED BASKETBALL RHYTHMS THROUGH THE PORTER BASKETBALL SYSTEMS. I'VE WORKED WITH THEM IN MANY CITIES AND THEIR VERY STRONG AN THEY HANDLE A LOT OF EXCESSIVE USE AS FAR AS KIDS HANGING ON THE RIMS. IT'S A REALLY GREAT SYSTEM. AGAIN, I BROUGHT UP EARLIER, A 30-FOOT SPORT LIKE TO KEEP IT NICE IN BRIGHT AND SAFE. THE OTHER PART IS GOING TO BE LANDSCAPING AND IRRIGATION FOR $65,000. WE WILL INSTALL 30 NEW 45-GALLO TREES. AS YOU SEE FROM THE RED OAKS TO THE LIVE OAKS PER OAKS COME, TH BIG TOOTH MAPLES, PROVIDED AT THE PICTURE THAT COULD HELP YOU GET AN IDEA OF THE COLORS THAT COME WITH THIS, THE CHANGING AN THE SEASONS. THEY ARE ALL UNDER UDC REQUIREMENTS IN THEY WILL BE DEDICATED IRRIGATION SYSTEM AND NONPORTABLE WATER SO IT'S A ONE YEAR TREE AND IRRIGATION WARRANTIES. THE FUNDING SOURCE WILL BE GENERAL FUND FOR THE COURT AND PARKING PERMITS FOR TWO UNITS O THE $5,000 FOR THE TREATMENT AGAIN AND FUND WILL COVER THE LANDSCAPING AND IRRIGATION FOR 65,000 FOR A TOTAL COST OF [00:50:05] $330,000.

WE WILL FOLLOW THE ORDINANCE AN PROBABLY HAVE TO WORK WITH AI HOW IT DEPICTS THOSE LIGHTS IN THE FUTURE TO BE THAT WAY BECAUSE THOSE LED ONES ARE PROBABLY NOT THERE AND ALSO THANK YOU FOR CLARIFYING THAT THE WATER IS HOWEVER GOING TO WATER THOSE TREES THAT IT'S NOT GOING TO BE WITH THE CITY WATER ET CETERA. THANK YOU FOR CLARIFYING THAT PARADE OTHERWISE I JUST WANT TO MAKE THOSE TWO POINTS. >> I HAVE A QUICK QUESTION. DO YOU KNOW WHERE THE TREES ARE GOING TO BE PLACED OR IS THERE MAP THAT COULD BE PROVIDED EVENTUALLY CLICKS. >> JUST SOUTH OF THE SWIMMING PULL, WHAT I DID LEAVE OUT TOO BECAUSE I WAS SPEEDING THROUGH THIS IS WE ARE ALSO GOING TO CONNECT THE EXISTING PARKING LO SIDEWALK TO THE SIDEWALK THAT I CONNECTED BY THE POOL AND WE WILL HAVE ALL THAT DECOMPOSED GRANITE NOW CONCRETE, THERE WIL ALSO BE A WATER FOUNTAIN THERE FOR PEOPLE TO ENJOY, SO IT WILL BE JUST SO YOU HAVE THE BASKETBALL COURTS, YOU HAVE THE POOL, YOU WILL HAVE THIS NEW CONCRETE TRAIL AND ALONG THE TRAIL ALONG THE ROAD INSIDE THE FENCE LINE OF COURSE ON EACH SIDE OF THE CONCRETE PATH WILL BE THE LOCATION OF THE TREES. >> OKAY. AWESOME. TO YOU HAPPEN TO KNOW WHEN YOU MIGHT START CONSTRUCTION AND WHEN IT COULD BE COMPLETED? >> WE ARE LOOKING AT CLEMENT WE JUST DISCUSSED DECEMBER AND FOR A FIVE-MONTH SPIRIT COOKIE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR COUNCIL OR TO BE HAVE A MOTION? >> I MOVED TO APPROVE THE $330,000 PROPOSAL FROM G2 CONSTRUCTION SERVICES FOR A CIT PARK BASKETBALL COURT, LANDSCAPING AND IRRIGATION IMPROVEMENTS AND AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE NECESSARY DOCUMENTS. >> SECONDED. >> A MOTION HAS MADE IN BEEN SECONDED. ALL IN FAVOR? 6-0. MOTION PASSES. AND GIVE. THANK YOU. FOR SEWER AND WASTEWATER RATES AND TO BEGIN WINTER DATA COLLECTION. WE WILL START OFF I JUST ARMSTRONG, OUR FINANCE DIRECTOR. >> THANK YOU FOR LISTENING TO M AGAIN. SOME OF YOU MIGHT REMEMBER, BUT MY FIRST COUPLE OF MONTHS HERE WE WERE IN THE THROES OF FINALIZING OUR CURRENT WATER AN SEWER RATE STUDY. WE IDENTIFIED AT THE END OF IT THAT IT IS NOT NECESSARILY MEET ALL OF OUR NEEDS, SPECIFICALLY OUR DEBT COVERAGE SERVICE RATIO. SO WE DISCUSSED DOING IT ALL OVER AGAIN. WE ARE CURRENTLY IN THE PROCESS OF DOING THAT, AND ONE OF THE ITEMS THAT WAS DISCUSSED WITH COUNCIL AT THAT TIME WAS MOVING TO A WINTER QUARTER AVERAGE FOR SEWER AND WASTEWATER. THAT IS WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO DISCUSS WITH YOU GUYS TODAY. AND IF ANYBODY SHOULD NOT HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO GO THROUGH TH PACKET, IT'S A METHOD UTILIZING A FOUR-MONTH MEASURING PERIOD DURING THE WINTER PROCESS WHERE GENERALLY IT IS THE SMALLEST AMOUNT OF WATER IS GOING THROUG THE PIPES AND THOSE WHO ARE IN THE SUMMERTIME, IT'S WHEN A LOT OF IRRIGATION AND WATER IS BEIN DONE. DO NOT REQUIRE A SEPARATE IRRIGATION METER, SO ALL WATER IS ASSUMED TO GO DOWN THE SEWER WHICH IS NOT THE CASE. BECAUSE WE UTILIZE A STATIC METHOD OF HOW WE BUILD COMMITMENT DOESN'T REALLY MATTE ANYWAY. NOW WE WANT TO MOVE INTO A CONSUMPTION MODEL, BUT WHAT WE WANT TO DO SPECIFICALLY IS WHAT CONSOL REQUEST WAS LOOK AT THE WINTER QUARTER AVERAGE, LOOK AT WHAT THAT WOULD MEAN FOR OUR RESIDENTS IN THEN UTILIZE THAT METHODOLOGY MOVING FORWARD. THE REASONS WE WANT TO TALK ABOUT THIS NOW IS BECAUSE THE PERIOD TO DO THE MEASURING WOUL START IN THE MIDDLE OF NOVEMBER. I KNOW IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE, BU WE ARE AND OF OCTOBER RIGHT NOW. SO IT'S ONE OF THOSE THINGS THA IF WE DO WANT TO MOVE TO THIS COMMENT WE WANT TO HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO LET THAT RESIDENTS KNOW SO OVER THAT MEASUREMENT PERIOD THEY CAN ACT ACCORDINGLY. WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR WE PROVIDED A DRAFT MEMO FROM [00:55:04] ENGINE, THEY WERE ABLE TO BASICALLY FIND AN EQUIVALENT RATE THAT MATCHES WHAT WE ARE DOING TODAY, BUT BASED ON CONSUMPTION. SO THEY UTILIZED A RATES THAT WAS BASICALLY AT $45 AND THEN HAD A CONSUMPTION CHARGE ON TOP OF THAT. ONE OF THE THINGS THEY HAVE RECOMMENDED IS INCLUDING A BASE 1,000 GALLONS IN THE BASE RATE, SO EVERY USER WOULD GET A FREE 1,000 GALLONS FOR ANY CHARGES O CONSUMPTION WERE INCURRED. SO WE WOULD LIKE TO BASICALLY GET SOME DIRECTION FROM YOU GUY IS THIS IS SOMETHING YOU WOULD LIKE US TO PURSUE SO WE CAN START THIS MEASUREMENT PROCESS WHILE WE ARE STILL UTILIZING TH EQUIVALENT RATE TO START BUILDING OUR FUTURE WASTEWATER AND SEWER RATES ON? THERE ARE PROBABLY SOME QUESTIONS YOU GUYS ARE GOING TO HAVE, IF I CANNOT ANSWER IT, I HAVE BRANDON HERE WHO CAN TALK ABOUT THIS STUFF FOR HOURS. DON'T LET THAT STOP YOU, ASK AL THE QUESTIONS AND LET US KNOW WHAT YOU NEED. >> CAN YOU REPEAT THAT LAST PAR TRADE USAGE ARE GOING TO DO THI BUT YOU'RE GOING TO USE SOMETHING ELSE FOR THE STUDY. >> WE ARE BASICALLY,--RIGHT NOW WE UTILIZE THE LUV, SO PUT THAT CAN ALSO GO THE OTHER WAY. >> FOR SOME PEOPLE, YES. >> THIS IS MORE TRYING TO MAKE IT EQUITABLE AND REALLY PAYING FOR WHAT YOU USE. >> BUT THIS WILL THAN GO INTO THE STUDY AS WELL, THIS DATA. >> IT'S THE SAME DATA BECAUSE W UTILIZE THEIR CONSUMPTION DATA, SO NOW WHAT WE ARE ASKING, WHAT WE ARE ASKING YOU IS TO LET US KNOW YOU WANT TO MOVE IN THAT DIRECTION SO WE CAN NOTIFY THE PUBLIC TO START UTILIZING WATER APPROPRIATELY SO THEY CAN GET THE BEST RATE, BUT WE STILL HAV TO HAVE AN EQUIVALENT RATE THAT IS BASED ON A BASE AND A CONSUMPTION THAT WE CAN THEN START IDENTIFYING WHAT OUR FIVE-YEAR NEEDS ARE GOING TO BE. TONIGHT'S IT'S LET ME KNOW THIS IS THE DIRECTION YOU WANT TO GO WE WILL DOUBLE CHECK THE EQUIVALENT RATES AND WE WILL BRING THAT BACK TO YOU, BUT IN THE MEANTIME WE CAN START TO LE THE PUBLIC KNOW THAT THIS IS TH ROUTE WE ARE GOING TO GO AND GE THE MESSAGING OUT. >> YOU JUST SAID SOMETHING AGAIN . YOU SAID THE BASE PLUS THIS. >> THERE IS THE BASE RATE. YOU GET THE BASE RATE OF 35-$40 TICKET I WANT TO MAKE SURE THEY'RE NOT ACTUALLY GOING UP. >> I BELIEVE THE BASE RIGHT NOW IS 150 OR 130? >> IT'S NOT THAT HIGH, BUT IT'S BASED ON THE LUV WHICH IS BASED ON YOUR METER SIZE WHICH HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE AMOUNT O WATER AND ULTIMATELY SEWER. >> 'S A BASICALLY 45. >> YES. COOKIE I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE BECAUSE I WANT TO CATCH AL THE NUANCES. >> STILL FOR CLARITY, WE ARE MOVING, THIS WOULD MOVE US MORE INTO A PAY FOR YOUR CONSUMPTION. >> YES. I'M JUST ASKING FOR THE DIRECTION, WE WILL FINALIZE THI INFORMATION BASED OFF WHAT IS I HERE IN YOUR DIRECTION AND BRIN THAT BACK, BUT WE WILL HAVE THE TIME TO START MESSAGING NOW AND LETTING RESIDENTS KNOW THAT WE ARE GOING TO DO THIS IN THEN WE WILL FINALIZE THIS AT THE PROBABLY NOVEMBER MEETING. >> YOU MENTIONED FOUR-MONTH? >> BE TAKE A FOUR-MONTH PERIOD IN WE TAKE THE THREE LOWEST MONTHS. >> AND THAT COMES BACK TO COUNCIL? >> ONCE YOU GUYS HAVE DECIDED THIS IS THAT METHODOLOGY WITH THE RATE STUDY, THEN IT WOULD B GOING MOVING FORWARD, BUT THIS IMPLEMENTATION WILL NOT HAPPEN UNTIL AFTER THE MEASUREMENT. >> SO THAT GIVES ME CLARITY. SO WHEN DOES THE NEW BUILDING, WINDOWS THAT THAT START FOR THEM ? IF WE MAKE A DECISION TONIGHT. >> IT WOULD NOT START UNTIL THE FOLLOWING BILLING CYCLE BECAUSE. >> SO SOMETIME IN MARCH. OKAY, GREAT. >> AND YOU SAID YOU NEEDED A DECISION THAT'S WHAT I WAS GETTING READY TO LOOK AT HIM AN SAYS NO ACTION. >> I JUST NEED DIRECTION BECAUS THIS DRAFT INFORMATION HAS NOT BEEN FINALIZED AND WE DID NOT IDENTIFY IT ON THE AGENDA AS. >> SO IT'S JUST A DISCUSSION. AND I'M JUST LOOKING FOR DIRECTION, YOU DON'T NEED TO DECISION. TO GET MY DISCUSSION AS I LIKE IT. >> FANTASTIC. I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE WE ARE MOVING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION BEFORE WE FINALIZED ANYTHING TO BRING TO YOU. >> YES. >> THANK YOU, COUNCIL. I APPRECIATE IT.
