EACH CORPORATION'S REVENUES TOTALED 777,824 AND 42 CENTS, OR 33% OF THE BUDGET, 33% OF THE YEAR COMPLETE. UM, JUST LIKE IN, UM, FEBRUARY, THOSE TWO MONTHS LAST YEAR WE WERE UP, I THINK 20 SOMETHING PERCENT, AND THEN THIS MONTH WAS 43%, UM, OVER FISCAL YEAR 24. SO WE'RE KIND OF SEEING A RETURN TO NORMALCY THESE TWO MONTHS. UM, WHICH IT KNOW IT'S NOT INCLUDING YOUR PACKET. WE GOT THE SALES TAX REVENUES FOR THIS MONTH, UM, THIS MORNING.

UM, WHEN WE LOOK AT THE TOTAL FUND BALANCE, IS THERE A WAY TO GO AHEAD AND ADD WE, I MEAN, WE'VE TALKED ABOUT IT BEFORE, THE HOW MUCH MONEY WE ACTUALLY HAVE TO SPEND. SURE. WE CAN, UM, IT, IT SHOULD BE PRETTY ACCURATE MINUS THE, UM, OPERATION AND PROJECTS ACCOUNTS. SO WE CAN ASK THEM TO, TO PULL THAT NUMBER OUT, UM, OUT OF THAT TOTAL. OKAY. THANK YOU. YEAH, LET'S, LET'S DO THAT. I, I JUST WANT, YOU KNOW, IN EVERYTHING WE DO, I WANT US TO BE AS TRANSPARENT AS POSSIBLE, UH, FOR ANYONE ELSE.

AND I DON'T WANT THEM TO SEE THIS BIG NUMBER AND, YOU KNOW, THEM NOT HAVE THE CONTEXT OF ALL OF OUR OTHER MEETINGS ON HOW THAT'S NOT A REAL NUMBER. WELL, AND UM, JUST TO ADD ON TO WHAT, UM, OUR PRESIDENT ASKED FOR, I WOULD LIKE TO GO AHEAD AND SEE THAT BIG NUMBER TOTAL, BUT THEN HAVE AN ADDITIONAL LINE THAT SHOWS, YOU KNOW, THE ENCUMBRANCES THAT WE HAVE. SURE. ABSOLUTELY. AND THEN ANNETTE, YES MA'AM. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THAT'S VERY, THAT WOULD BE ULTRA TRANSPARENT. ANYTHING ELSE?

JUST A REMINDER TONIGHT, IT'S JUST FOR YOU TO ASK ALL THE QUESTIONS THAT YOU CAN THINK OF TO REQUEST ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION YOU MIGHT FEEL IS NEEDED FOR YOU TO MAKE A DECISION AS WE HEAD INTO THE BUDGET PROCESS. UM, AND JUST FOR YOU TO GET FAMILIAR WITH PROJECTS THAT AREN'T JUST FOR THIS UPCOMING YEAR, BUT FOR THE FOLLOWING YEAR. I KNOW THAT IT'S BEEN REQUESTED TO KIND OF GET THAT MORE BIRD'S EYE VIEW OF WHERE ARE WE REALLY GOING, WHAT, YOU KNOW, WHAT IS, UM, THE ASK REALLY GOING TO BE IN THE NEXT FEW YEARS. AND SO DAVID'S GONNA WALK US THROUGH THAT. UM, SO JUST KEEP AN OPEN MIND, JOT DOWN ALL YOUR QUESTIONS. I THINK IT'S A LITTLE EASIER IF WE GET THROUGH THE WHOLE PRESENTATION AND THEN GO INTO THE DISCUSSION FROM THERE. EITHER WAY, . ALRIGHT. PERFECT. WE CAN, WE CAN TAKE IT EITHER WAY. UM, AS ANELLE MENTIONED, WE ARE VERY EARLY ON IN OUR CIP BUDGET SEASON, SO THE PROJECTS THAT WE PUT TO Y'ALL LAST WEEK, IT HAS CHANGED A BIT BECAUSE THAT'S JUST THE FLUIDITY OF GOING THROUGH A CIP PROGRAM. THAT'S SUPER HOT. YEAH. IS EVERY MIC OFF TOO? YEAH. OKAY. BUT FIRST AND FOREMOST, WE JUST WANNA THANK Y'ALL FOR THE PROJECTS THAT Y'ALL HAVE FUNDED AND ARE CURRENTLY GOING RIGHT NOW. AND I HOPE YOU'RE STARTING TO SEE SOME PROGRESS IN THOSE PROJECTS AND YOU WILL CONTINUE TO SEE A LOT OF, AS MATTHEW'S GONNA COME TELL YOU A LOT OF WORK BEING DONE ON THOSE. AND OUR HOPE IS THAT ONCE IT'S DONE, YOU'RE GONNA SEE A RETURN ON YOUR INVESTMENT. PERFECT. I CAN TALK LOUDER NOW. A RETURN ON THOSE INVESTMENT, UM, IN WAY BACK OF DOWNTOWN, THE DOWNTOWN PROFILE CHANGING, UM, SPURRING ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT JUST AS Y'ALL INTENDED FOR THOSE DOLLARS TO BE USED. SO I JUST DID A SHORT LITTLE ONE. UM, AND LIKE I SAID, MATTHEW WILL COME IN AND GIVE Y'ALL, UH, KIND OF A BREAKDOWN OF WHAT'S HAPPENED IN THIS PAST MONTH. BUT AS ANELLE MENTIONED, WE WANTED TO KINDA SHOW YOU'ALL TWOFOLD ON WHAT WE HAVE CURRENTLY, UH, GOING THAT YOU WOULD BE FUNDING OPTION FOR THIS FISCAL YEAR. UM, A COUPLE OF THOSE PROJECTS WOULD HAVE A DIFFERENT LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT OF A CONTRACT VESSEL THAT WE WOULD BE USING IN THE DESIGN BUILD. THAT WAY ALL THE ENCUMBRANCES WOULD BE UP FRONT, KIND OF LIKE, AS MOST PEOPLE WOULD LIKE TO SEE THEM. AND WE COULD GO STRAIGHT IN FROM A DESIGN PHASE TWO CONSTRUCTION AND KIND OF SHORTEN, SHORTEN THAT TIME BETWEEN WHERE WE WOULD HAVE TO SOLICIT. BUT I'LL TELL YOU WHICH PROJECT THOSE ARE AS WE KIND OF GET TO THEM. UM, ONE OF THE FIRST ONES THAT WE, WE, UM, WERE ASKED TO ADD ONTO OUR CIP PROGRAM AND THAT'S GONE THROUGH A LOT OF CHANGES IS, UH, WW 28 G AND THAT'S THE SOUTH FM NINE, UH, 10 93 GRAVITY LINE IMPROVEMENT. AND WE DID A MAP, UM, THAT Y'ALL DO NOT HAVE. IT MAY HAVE CHANGED QUITE A BIT ON Y'ALL SLIDE. SO I DEFINITELY WANNA UPDATE, UM, THE PROJECTS THAT WE GAVE TO YOU BECAUSE THIS ONE HAS GONE THROUGH A LOT OF ITERATIONS IN THE PAST, EVEN 48 HOURS . DID YOU, I'M SORRY, DID YOU SAY 28 G? 28 G? CORRECT. OKAY. I HAVE PAGES IN HERE FOR ALL KINDS OF LETTERS AND NUMBERS. YES. BUT I DO NOT SEE A 28 G. CORRECT. SO THE PREVIOUS ONE, UM, I BELIEVE WAS IT WAS CALLED, I CAN SEE, I MEAN, WHAT DOES IT REFER TO? GRAVITY SEWER IMPROVEMENT CORRECT. DEVELOPMENT. THAT ONE. SO WE HAVE 28 B. RIGHT. SO LIKE I MENTIONED, THIS IS US BEING IN LINE WITH A FEW OTHER PROJECTS THAT WE'RE COMING INTO A MASTER PLAN AND KIND OF SCOPING ALL THE PROJECTS INTO A SINGLE PROJECT THAT WOULD ENCOMPASS A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT THINGS. SO ON Y'ALL'S, UM, SHEET, I BELIEVE IT SHOWED ABOUT, UH, A $900,000 ASK. AND THAT WHAT THAT WOULD BE IS THE ORANGE LINE. THAT'S A LITTLE BIT SMALL ON THIS ONE, BUT IT, IT'D BE GOING ON THE SOUTHERN PORTION OF 10 93 GOING DOWN INTO LAKE HILL FARMS. AND THAT WOULD BE ABLE TO, UM, ACCOMMODATE ANY TYPE OF FUTURE GROWTH IN BUSINESS IN THAT BUSINESS AREA. OKAY. I'M WEARING MY GLASSES AND I CAN'T SEE THAT. , I MEAN OKAY. IT'S LIKE GOING TO A RESTAURANT AND REALIZING THAT THE OWNER IS 24 YEARS OLD BECAUSE THE, THE MENUS WRITTEN IN FOUR POINT FONT. SURE. PULL THAT LIGHT UP. THERE WE GO. IT DOES WORK. HERE WE GO. THERE WE GO. DOES THAT HELP? NO, IT DOES. NO . OKAY. WELL LET ME WALK IT THROUGH FOR Y'ALL. SOMEONE ORIENTS ME TO SHOW WHAT, WHERE, WHERE IS THAT? WHAT ROAD IS THOSE? HERE'S DOWNTOWN. OKAY. RIGHT DOWNTOWN WEST'S 10 93. THIS IS 10 93 COMING IN. AND THE ORANGE IS THIS FIRST PAGE THAT WOULD, UH, ACCOMMODATE, UM, ECONOMIC GROWTH ON THE SOUTHERN PART OF 10 93. SO IT WOULD BE A GRAVITY LINE THAT WOULD FLOW FROM THIS DEVELOPMENT AREA OVER TO OUR EXISTING, UM, WASTEWATER LINES AND FLOW DOWN TO ACCOMMODATE SEWER SERVICES OR WASTE SERVICES DOWN TO LAKE HILL FARMS LIFT STATION. SO THAT WOULD KIND OF OPEN UP THIS AREA TO BE ACCOMMODATED FOR UTILITIES IN THE ZIP. [00:10:03] OKAY. SO GO BACK THAT FOR YOU. SO THE PICTURE ON THIS LITTLE PAGE WE HAVE IS MEANT TO BE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FROM THAT WHAT YOU'RE SHOWING US AS WE WERE DEVELOPING THE PROJECT. YES MA'AM. OKAY. THIS WAS THE MOST UPDATED ONE TO KIND OF GIVE Y'ALL, UM, SHOWING YOU THE LINES THAT WERE IMPROVED. AND KINDA LIKE I MENTIONED, BECAUSE WE ARE IN THE MIDST OF CIP PROGRAMMING, WE ARE WORKING ON THESE PROJECTS TO KIND OF GET THEM READY, UM, TO PRESENT IN THE FINAL FORM TO Y'ALL AS WELL AS TO COUNCIL, HOW OUR CIP PROGRAM WILL WORK. SO, AND IT'S NOW 900,000 INSTEAD OF 800,000? CORRECT. OKAY. MM-HMM . AND, AND GO AHEAD. UH, UH, THIS, THIS, UH, PARTIAL OF LAND. HOW IS IT ZONED? YEAH, THAT'S Y'ALL'S PARCEL. OKAY. OH, IT IS ? YES. OKAY. I THOUGHT WE WERE NICKS. I THOUGHT WE WERE, I THOUGHT WE WERE WEST OF LAKE HILL. OH, NO, NO, NO. OKAY. YES. WE'RE ON THAT THERE. OH, IS IT FULLER? UH, YEAH. WHAT'S THE NAME OF THE STREET THAT'S IF YOU DON'T TURN LEFT ON 3 59 AND YOU KEEP GOING SOUTH INTO SHORE BROOK ON SHORE CREEK. WHAT'S THE NAME OF THAT STREET? THIS ONE HERE IS LAKE HILL FARMS. LAKE HILL FARMS. YEAH. BUT WHAT'S THE OTHER, IS IT FUL SHERE TRACE. OKAY. THAT, I'M SORRY. THAT'S WHAT MY MIND WAS. GLITCHED UP. THANK YOU. SO WE'RE, THIS PROPOSAL IS TO SPEND $900,000 TO BUILD A SANITARY, SANITARY, SANITARY SEWER LINE. CORRECT. FROM THE EXISTING WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT DOWN TO THE NO, FROM LIFT STATION, FROM THAT, UM, PARCEL OF LAND, THAT AREA. OKAY. DOWN TO THE EXISTING LIFT STATION. SO WHEN THAT PLANT GETS REMOVED MM-HMM . WHAT HAPPENS TO THIS? CORRECT. DOES IT CONNECT SOMEWHERE ELSE? THAT WOULD BE THE WHITE LINE. SO THAT WOULD BE NOT A PART OF THIS ASK 'CAUSE THAT'S A FUTURE RIGHT. PROJECT. BUT THAT WOULD, WE WOULD CREATE THE NEW LINE THAT WOULD CORRECT LAKE HILL FARMS WOULD BE TURNED INTO A MAN, BASICALLY A CONNECTING PIECE UP INTO DIVERSION LIFT STATION THAT WE ARE CURRENTLY WORKING ON IN THIS DIFFERENT PROJECT. OKAY. SO WHEN WE HAD THE COURTHOUSE AND WHEN WE HAD, AND WHEN MS. DOUGLAS HAD HER REALTY OFFICE MM-HMM . WERE THOSE CONNECTED TO THE CITY SOURCE SYSTEM? THAT IS BEFORE MY TIME AND I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHERE THOSE LOCATIONS ARE AT. AND I APOLOGIZE. THE OLD CITY HALL. YEAH. I DON'T KNOW IF THE OLD CITY HALL WAS CONNECTED TO THE CITY'S WASTEWATER LINE OR IF IT WAS, IF THEY HAD A SEPTIC SYSTEM THERE. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY HAD. I'M JUST, WE'D HAVE TO GO BACK AND LOOK AT THAT. I'LL WRITE DOWN QUESTIONS THAT WE DON'T HAVE ANY IMMEDIATE ANSWER FOR AND THEN WE'LL FOLLOW UP. OKAY. WELL, I MEAN, THE QUESTION I WAS GONNA HAVE IS LIKE IF THERE WAS SOMETHING THERE THAT WAS CONNECTED TO THE WASTEWATER SYSTEM THAT THE CITY HAS, IS THIS JUST A NEED FOR UPSIZING BECAUSE WE THINK WE'RE GONNA HAVE MORE ACTIVITY? THIS IS ANTICIPATED OF FUTURE GROWTH FOR COMMERCIAL. CORRECT. OKAY. BUT OKAY. BUT SO THE STARTING POINT THOUGH IS THE WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT? NO, NO, IT'S SOUTH. THE STARTING POINT IS OF 10 93 TO SOUTH OF 10 93. OKAY. THAT'S WHERE THE OLD CITY HALL USED TO BE. SO I, I GUESS I'LL TAKE A STEP BACK AND KIND OF JUST WALK YOU THROUGH. SO THE CONNECTION PIECE THAT WE ARE ASKING FOR FUNDING FOR IS THE ORANGE LINE THAT GOES DOWN SOUTH, THE CURRENT CONNECTION. THEN WE'LL TAKE IT FROM LAKE HILL FARMS NORTH TO DOWNTOWN WASTEWATER RECLAMATION SITE THAT IS GONNA BE DECOMMISSIONED IN A FUTURE PROJECT. WE'RE NOT, THIS IS NOT A TEMPORARY BANDAID, BUT WE ARE GONNA CREATE, WHEN WE DIVERSION LIFT STATION COMES ONLINE A NEW LINE THAT WOULD CONNECT THAT SANITARY OVER TO DIVERSION LIFT STATION. AND THIS IS SOMETHING WE'RE GONNA BE, THIS IS AN EXERCISE WE'RE GONNA BE DOING WITH QUITE A FEW OF OUR LINES JUST AS WE ARE GROWING TO THE LARGER CAPACITIES, UH, FOR THE LIFT STATIONS AND THE WASTEWATER, UH, TREATMENT PLANTS. AND THIS IS JUST PART OF US GETTING BIGGER. ARE WE GOING TO NEED BOTH OF THOSE LIFT STATIONS? BECAUSE IT FEELS LIKE IT'D BE LAKE HILL FARMS PRETTY EASY TO JUST GO STRAIGHT LEFT TO DIVERSION LIFT STATION, FUTURE STATE, LAKE HILL FARMS IS GONNA CHANGE, UM, INTO A GRAVITY. AND ALL THIS HAS TO DO WHAT YOU DON'T SEE AS A TOPOGRAPHY OF THE LAND THAT, AND HOW WE'RE DOING OUR FLOWS. SO IDEALLY YES, IT WOULD BE A STRAIGHT SHOT OVER, BUT BECAUSE OF TOPOGRAPHY, THE, WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO GO DOWN INTO LAKE HILL FARMS AND THEN OVER TO DIVERSION LIFT STATION AND OKAY. I, UM, WE'RE GOING FOR GRAVITY LINES, NOT FORCE MAINS IS THE FOCUS, THE TRY. SO THAT WHITE LINE THAT YOU HAVE ON THERE, THAT'S JUST KIND OF CONCEPTUAL. CONCEPTUAL WHERE YOU'RE OUT THERE. 'CAUSE YOU'RE NOT GOING TO TUNNEL UNDERNEATH HOUSES AND STUFF JUST CONCEPTUAL THAT WE, YOU'RE GONNA USE THE RIGHT OF WAY THAT YOU HAVE ALONG THE STREETS, I ASSUME. ABSOLUTELY. IT'S COMPLETELY CONCEPTUAL. JUST 'CAUSE IT'S, WE'RE WAY OFF FROM GETTING IN ALIGNMENT NOW I'M JUST ASKING. 'CAUSE ON FOURTH STREET THERE WAS [00:15:01] A LINE THAT WENT UNDER SOMEBODY'S HOUSE. SO , WE DO OUR BEST TO NOT GO THROUGH THERE. YEAH. BUT YEAH. COMPLETELY CONCEPTUAL FOR THE WHITE LINE. I THANK YOU. MM-HMM . IF WE DON'T DO THIS PROJECT THEN HOW WILL THAT PROPERTY BE DEVELOPED? THAT IS A GOOD QUESTION THAT, UM, SOME OF OUR COMMITTEES ARE LOOKING AT AS WELL ON, 'CAUSE WE STILL NEED TO MAKE THAT CONNECTION OR WE CANNOT SUPPLY UTILITIES TO THAT AT THIS POINT. UM, THERE'S FOUR DIFFERENT SCENARIOS ALL GOING ON ONE TIME. I'M JUST TRYING TO SEE HOW WE CAN INCORPORATE THIS. BUT THIS WOULD BE THE PATH OF LEAST RESISTANCE, UM, AS FAR AS UTILITIES GOES. UM, BUT WE HAVEN'T BEEN COMPLETELY SCOPED DOWN THOSE SCENARIOS TO SAY, IF THIS DOESN'T GO THROUGH, THEN WHAT DO WE DO? THEN THIS WOULD BE JUST THE MOST IMMEDIATE, EASIEST SOLUTION FOR IT. OKAY. SO DOES DOES EASIEST ALSO MEAN LEAST COST? THIS IS VERY MUCH THE LEAST COST OPTION. THANK YOU. ABSOLUTELY. SO IT IS POSSIBLE THAT WE HAVE A PARCEL OF LAND OR TWO PARCELS OF LAND IN NO, IT SOUNDS THAT WAY, BUT NO . OKAY. UH, ONLY BECAUSE THERE ARE MULTIPLE, AS I'VE TOLD ANYONE WHO WILL LISTEN, WE HAVE MULTIPLE PARCELS OF LAND WITHIN THE FULL, UH, CITY LIMITS THAT CANNOT BE DEVELOPED UNTIL INFRASTRUCTURE IS IN PLACE. UM, AND WHAT I'M HEARING IS THAT THERE MIGHT BE A DIFFERENCE OF OPINION ON WHETHER OR NOT THIS IS A PARCEL THAT CANNOT BE DEVELOPED UNTIL, UM, UTILITIES ARE IN PLACE OR INFRASTRUCTURE IS IN PLACE. NO, I DON'T THINK WE'RE ON YEAH, WE'RE ON THE SAME PAGE, RIGHT? YEAH, WE'RE, YEAH. YEAH. I'LL SAY THIS PROJECT IS NECESSARY FOR ONGOING COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT, PERIOD. IT, AS OF RIGHT NOW, THERE ARE NO CONCERNS WITH WASTEWATER OR WATER TO THE EDC OWNED PROPERTY FOR COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT. THAT'S IT. SO WHY IS THIS NEEDED THEN FOR COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT ON ALL THEIR TRACKS OF LAND FOR WASTEWATER CAPACITY FOR, FOR THAT COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT. OKAY. SO THERE ARE OTHER, SORRY. SO IS THAT GONNA EXTEND, SO IS THAT ORANGE GOING TO EXTEND NORTH OR EAST AT SOME POINT? LIKE WHAT? NOT WHERE ELSE IS IT COLLECTING FROM? NOT AS A PART OF THIS PROJECT IN PARTICULAR. NOT AS I KNOW, BUT IN, IN THE FUTURE BECAUSE OF FUTURE DEVELOPMENT? YES. OKAY. YES. THANK YOU. GO AHEAD. SO THERE ARE OTHER TRACKS OF LAND THAT CANNOT BE COMMERCIALLY DEVELOPED, NOT NECESSARILY OUR COM BUT THERE ARE OTHER COMMERCIAL, THERE ARE OTHER COMMERCIAL TRACKS OF LAND THAT CANNOT BE DEVELOPED DUE TO THIS LACK OF INFRASTRUCTURE. WITHOUT ADDITIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE. THERE'S DEFINITELY A NEED BEFORE DEVELOPMENT CAN HAPPEN. OKAY. I JUST, I JUST WANNA MAKE SURE, SURE. THAT PEOPLE IN OUR CITY WHO EXPECT TO BE MAKING DECISIONS PAST MAY UNDERSTAND THERE ARE TRACKS OF LAND IN THE CITY OF SHORE THAT CANNOT BE DEVELOPED WITHOUT ADDED INFRASTRUCTURE. I WOULD SAY THAT'S SAFE TO SAY. I MEAN, ON THIS PROJECT, ON THIS PROJECT, THIS IS NEEDED TO DO DEVELOP. YES. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY NEEDED TO FOR COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT OF PROJECTS OR OF, OF PARCELS OF LAND WITHIN THE CITY OF PARCELS WITHIN LAND, YES. THIS PROJECT WOULD ADDRESS THE NEED FOR ADDITIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE TO DEVELOP THIS LAND. ABSOLUTELY. WAIT TO DEVELOP THIS LAND OR OTHER LAND, THIS AREA OF LAND, I MEAN, IT'S NOT GONNA ADDRESS ALL THE LAND FALLS, BUT I'M JUST SAYING WITHIN THIS REGION, SWATH YES, BECAUSE SO SOME, SO SOME OF THOSE, UH, FUTURE COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENTS, I ASSUME THE CITY WOULD COLLECT IMPACT FEES THAT WOULD, UH, BASICALLY HELP REIMBURSE THE CITY FOR SPENDING THIS MONEY ON, OR THE EDC OR WHOEVER. ALTHOUGH THE CITY NEVER GIVES THE EDC MONEY ONLY A ONE WAY, UH, PATH ON THAT . UM, BUT WOULD THE CI WOULD THE CITY BE ABLE TO COLLECT IMPACT FEES THEN FROM THOSE FUTURE COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENTS? I AM NOT GOING TO SPEAK TO THAT PORTION AND WRITE THAT QUESTION DOWN. AND NOW YEAH, WE CAN DEFINITELY FOLLOW UP WITH THAT ONE. OKAY. THAT'S WHERE I WOULD LEANING. YEAH. IT, THERE'S A LOT OF VARIABLES THAT CAN IMPACT THE ANSWER TO THAT QUESTION. MM-HMM . IT'S JUST DEPENDENT ON THE PARCEL ITSELF, SO, OKAY. ALL RIGHT. BUT I WILL WRITE DOWN THE QUESTION. CAN IMPACT THESE COVER THE COST OF THIS SPECIFIC PROJECT AND LOOK INTO IT? WELL, I THINK JUST MORE GENERICALLY, IT'S WHEN WE LOOK AT THE, [00:20:01] THE PROJECTS THAT WHEN WE LOOK AT WHAT COULD BE THE COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT OR AN EXPECTED COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT OR AN AVERAGE COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT OF THESE PARCELS, WHAT ARE THE CURRENT EXPECTED IMPACT FEES TO COME IN? SURE. AND TO ME THAT'S, THIS IS NOT A WHOLE LOT DIFFERENT THAN, YOU KNOW, THE CITY LAID LINES UP NORTH THROUGH 3 59 SO THAT TANA COULD COME ONLINE AND THE CVS UP THERE IS NOW OPERATING AND YOU KNOW, THE, THE OTHER THINGS THAT HAVE STARTED HAPPENING NORTH ON, UH, 3 59 MM-HMM . WE HAD TO LAY THE LINE FIRST BEFORE THOSE BUSINESSES COULD OPEN UP AND GET UP AND RUNNING. SO, AGREED. THIS IS A SIMILAR SITUATION. AGREED. IN MY MIND. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ON THIS ONE? ALRIGHT, SO DOWNTOWN TRIBUTARY IS A PROJECT THAT WE'VE HAD GOING ON FOR A BIT, AND THAT'S BECAUSE, AND IN THE DESIGN PHASE, UM, THAT IS FINALLY COMING TO A CLOSE, WE'RE EXPECTED TO HAVE THIS, UM, OUT, WHAT DOES THIS SAY? D WHICH D 22 A. SO THESE ARE EAST SIDE, EAST SIDE TRIBUTARY DRAINAGE. THIS IS THE FOURTH STREET PROJECT? NO, THAT'S A FURTHER PROJECT THAT WE HAVE THAT ONE AS WELL. OH, NEVERMIND. YES. I GOTCHA. GOTCHA. AND WE'RE WORKING ON OUR NAMING CONVENTION, SO IT'S A LITTLE EASIER TO IDENTIFY WHICH PROJECTS ARE WHICH . OKAY. SO THIS IS A DOWNTOWN TRIBUTARY DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENT. UM, AND IT'S A PROJECT THAT HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR DESIGN FOR, UH, A COUPLE OF YEARS. UM, JUST NARROWING DOWN EXACTLY, UM, HOW AND WHERE AND HOW WE GO ABOUT DOING THE CONSTRUCTION PHASE. UM, RIGHT NOW WE HAVEN'T ANTICIPATED THAT IT WILL BE LET END OF THIS FISCAL YEAR GOING INTO THE NEXT FISCAL YEAR. AND RIGHT NOW THE TOTAL TOTAL PROJECT COST IS 5.241. UM, AND YOU SEE THE KIND OF THE, THE PROJECT TIMELINE THAT I HAVE IN THERE. UH, IF, UM, FISCAL YEAR 25 THROUGH THE 27, WHAT WE, UM, ANTICIPATE IS THIS PROJECT'S GONNA BE DONE IN A SINGLE YEAR AND WE WILL VASTLY IMPROVE THAT DRAINAGE IN THAT DOWNTOWN SWATH AND HAVE IT READY AGAIN TO, UM, FOR DEVELOPMENT PRO POST THIS PROJECT. SO IS IT SAFE TO SAY THAT Y'ALL HAVE, OR THE CITY HAS PRETTY MUCH SPENT THE FIRST 850,000 PLUS OR MINUS PLUS OR MINUS. AND SO THE NUMBER THAT'S ON THIS PAGE THAT YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE GONNA SPEND IN 2026, THAT'S BASICALLY JUST MOVING INTO FISCAL YEAR 2027? THAT'S CORRECT. OKAY. THANK YOU. THAT'S CORRECT. WHAT IS YOUR ASK OF US? SO THE ASK I PUT ON THERE, AND I APOLOGIZE, I FORGET THAT THESE AREN'T IN FRONT OF Y'ALL. SO WE PUT ON THERE, ASK FOR, UH, 1.098 1,980,001 MILLION, 98,000. I'VE GONE THROUGH A LOT OF NUMBERS TODAY, I APOLOGIZE. UM, AND WE'LL SEND YOU THE, THE POWERPOINT YES. AND MAKE A SUMMARY OF THE REQUEST OKAY. FOR YOU TO REVIEW AFTER THE MEETING. SO WHAT I, WHAT I WOULD LOVE TO SEE IS THE WATERFALL THAT WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT. WATERFALL. WE GOT IT. . THEY GOT IT. OKAY. THEY GOT IT. IT'S JUST, HERE'S, SO WE TALK ABOUT HERE'S HOW MUCH MONEY WE HAVE MM-HMM . MINUS HERE'S THE MONEY THAT WE HAVE ALREADY ALLOCATED. SURE. MINUS HERE'S A PROJECT, UH, THE, YOU KNOW, AND YOU CAN UNDERSTOOD EACH CALL HAS ITS OWN PROJECT. THAT WATER, THAT NUMBER COMES DOWN. AND I'M PRETTY CONFIDENT THAT EVENTUALLY WE'RE GONNA GO TO A NEGATIVE NUMBER AND THEN WE HAVE DECISIONS TO MAKE. UM, WE'VE BEEN DOING A LOT OF DETENTION POND, SO I WAS SAYING IF YOU WANTED LITERAL WATERFALL, IT'S LIKE WE CAN MAKE IT HAPPEN. GOT IT. MAKING SURE IT'S FINANCIAL WATERFALL, NOT CONSTRUCTION. WATERFALL. A TIMELINE. YES. WE CAN, WE CAN UNDERSTOOD THEN CALL IT AN, AN AMENITY. WE COULD . UM, IS THE 1 MILLION, 98,000, IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE ASKING JUST FROM THE A BOARD? OR IS THAT THE TOTAL THAT YOU'RE HOPING THIS, THE TOTAL HOPING TO GET FROM IN SOME COMBINATION FROM THE BCS? YES, MA'AM. YES, MA'AM. NOT ALL FROM Y'ALL. AND THAT'D BE FOR ALL THESE PROJECTS GOING FORWARD. UM, WE JUST WANTED TO PUT THE ASK AND LIKE I SAID THIS AND OPEN THE CONVERSATION TO HAVE, AND THEN WE CAN DRILL DOWN. THANK YOU. OKAY. SO YES, SIR. FOR, FOR SOME CONTEXT ON PREVIOUS CONVERSATIONS WE'VE HAD MM-HMM . UM, I'M SORRY. PUBLIC WORKS. YEP. IS THAT YES, SIR. OKAY. PUBLIC WORKS HAS COME IN MM-HMM . HAS ASKED FOR, WE NEED $28 MILLION, HERE ARE ALL OF OUR PROJECTS. AND WE LOOK AT EACH OTHER LIKE, WE DON'T HAVE 28. RIGHT. AND THEN THEY'RE LIKE, OKAY, WELL BYE. AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO PREVENT . UNDERSTOOD. SO IT FOR US, IF WE CAN SEE WHAT YOUR SPECIFIC ASK IS FOR US. SURE. IT WOULD ALSO BE HELPFUL IF WE COULD SEE WHO ELSE YOU'RE ASKING. OKAY. UM, AND WE DON'T HAVE TO GET SUPER SPECIFIC [00:25:01] ON THAT, BUT JUST UNDERSTANDING THAT ARE WE FITTING, ARE WE FOOTING 10% OF THIS 90%? SOMETHING LIKE THAT. ABSOLUTELY. UM, BUT, UH, THE BIGGEST, ONE OF THE BIGGEST ISSUES THAT I'VE HAD IN THESE PREVIOUS CONVERSATIONS IS, HERE'S THE TOTAL COST OF A PROJECT. SURE. WITHOUT REAL UNDERSTANDING ON WHAT WAS ACTUALLY BEING, BECAUSE ASKING US FOR THE WHOLE WASN'T POSSIBLE. RIGHT. NO. COMPLETELY UNDERSTOOD. SO SINCE, SINCE Y'ALL HAVE KIND OF SORT OF MADE IT THROUGH THE DESIGN PHASE ON THIS YES MA'AM. ARE YOU STILL PRETTY CONFIDENT THAT THE REMAINING, UH, COST TO BE SPENT IS STILL HANGING IN AT 4.4 MILLION? OR DO YOU EXPECT THAT NUMBER TO GO UP OR GO DOWN OR, I'LL PUT IT TO YOU THIS WAY. OUR LAST PROJECTS WITH WORKING WITH OUR DESIGN TEAMS ARE CONSTRUCTION COSTS HAVE COME IN LOWER. NICE. I DON'T WANNA SAY THAT TOO LOUD, , BUT WE'VE BEEN VERY FORTUNATE THAT, UM, I THINK THROUGH DUE DILIGENCE ON THE DESIGN TEAM IN THE CITY THAT WE'VE WORKED WITH THE CONTRACTORS TO REALLY BE STREAMLINED AND WHERE OUR COSTS ARE AT FOR CONSTRUCTION. OKAY. AND THEN THE OTHER QUESTION I HAD SINCE THIS IS EAST SIDE TRIBUTARY DRAINAGE MM-HMM . THE EAST SIDE OF DOWNTOWN CERTAINLY DOES HAVE A RESIDENTIAL COMPONENT. ABSOLUTELY. AND SO I'M, UH, AND I'M GUESSING THAT THIS TRIBUTARY IMPROVEMENT WILL HELP BOTH THE RESIDENTIAL THAT EXISTS CURRENTLY MM-HMM . AND POTENTIALLY PLUS COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT. ABSOLUTELY. ESPECIALLY THE, I I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT IT'S CALLED, CAPITAL, I CAN'T EVEN REMEMBER THE NAME OF IT NOW, THE HILL. UM, AND SO THAT IS LARGELY COMMERCIAL, BUT I'M WONDERING FOR PURPOSES OF THE EDC, SINCE WE'RE SUPPOSED TO HELP COMMERCIAL BUT NOT RESIDENTIAL, IS THERE A WAY TO KIND OF SPLIT OUT, UM, HOW MUCH OF THE FLOOD STORM WATER IS GONNA COME FROM? WE COULD DEFINITELY DO THAT GOING OFF WITH A DRAINAGE MASTER PLAN. OKAY. AND KINDA SEE WHAT THAT AREA OF EFFECT WOULD BE FOR THE DOWNTOWN TRIBUTARY. OKAY. AND CAN WE CAN, FROM THAT WE CAN BREAK DOWN WHAT THE COMMERCIAL WOULD LOOK LIKE, BECAUSE I THINK THAT WOULD KEEP US FROM, ALTHOUGH IF YOUR TOTAL COST IS 4 MILLION AND YOU'RE ONLY ASKING US FOR 1 MILLION, POTENTIALLY ALL 25% OF THAT APPROXIMATE NUMBER COULD BE COMMERCIAL. WE COULD DEFINITELY SHOW THAT. SO JUST, UH, YEAH. JUST IN PREVIOUS CONVERSATIONS, UM, YES. IN THE PAST YEARS, THAT HAS BEEN OUR UNDERSTANDING MM-HMM . IS THAT THE ASK BECAUSE WE CAN, WE CAN SERVE OR WE CAN PROVIDE FUNDING UP TO MM-HMM . UH, UM, AND LEGAL COUNSEL CAN CERTAINLY CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG, BUT WE CAN PROVIDE FUNDING UP TO WHATEVER PERCENT OF THE PROJECT IS COMMERCIAL. YEAH. UM, AND SO YOU, WE DON'T HAVE TO JUST SPLIT OUT SECTIONS. AND SO WITH A $4 MILLION PROJECT, DEFINITELY 25% OF THIS PROJECT IS GOING TO SUPPORT A COMMERCIAL. A COMMERCIAL. WE CAN GO WITH THIS ASK MM-HMM . BUT WE CAN DEFINITELY SHOW THAT MAP OF THE REGIONAL EFFECT FOR THE DRAINAGE AS WELL AS THE BREAKDOWN FOR CLARIFICATION. YES SIR. RAISE THEIR WATER BILL. THE RESIDENTIAL. SO THAT'S, WE DON'T, WE DON'T, YEAH. THAT'S NOT A, THAT IS NOT AN EDC ISSUE THAT IS SOMEBODY ELSE'S. I THINK THEY'RE LOOKING AT THAT RIGHT NOW. IT'S A GOOD TIME TO GO TO THE COUNCIL. WE'RE MOVING ON MEETING, WE'RE MOVING TO THE NEXT ITEM, OR WE'RE NOT GONNA HANG ON THIS TOPIC. SO THIS WOULD BE ANOTHER DRAINAGE IMPROVEMENT. AND THIS WOULD BE AT, UM, FM 50, UH, 3 59 AND FOURTH STREET. SO BASICALLY ENDING OF WHAT, WE HAVE FOURTH STREET IMPROVEMENTS RIGHT NOW. AND THIS WOULD BE FOCUSING ON DRAINAGE. UM, MATTHEW, DO YOU WANT TO KIND OF TALK TO THIS ONE A LITTLE BIT MORE THEN? YEAH. SO THIS WILL KIND OF EXPAND ON OUR CURRENT FOURTH STREET PROJECT. UH, THERE'S SOME ADDITIONAL, YOU KNOW, TDOT UH, RIGHT AWAY, UH, IMPROVEMENTS THAT THIS ONE IS GOING TO FOCUS ON IN PARTICULAR, UH, THE DITCHES ALONG 3 59 SORT OF IN THAT, THAT AREA. JUST TO KIND OF BUILD ON THE CURRENT FORESTRY PROJECT, THE, THE TOTAL, THERE'S A TOTAL HERE AT 1.86 MILLION. SHOULD THAT BE 900,000? YES, THAT WOULD BE, UM, ONE OF THOSE ONES THAT WE'VE KIND OF NARROWED DOWN. AND I THINK WE'RE SHOWING, UH, 850,000 IS KIND OF WHAT WE'RE EXPECTING FOR THIS ONE TO COME IN AT. OKAY. UM, AND LIKE I SAID, THIS WOULD BE ONE OF THOSE PROJECTS THAT, I MEAN, WE'RE SHOWING FY 27 AND THAT'S KIND OF WHERE WE'RE ANTICIPATING JUST WITH THE, UH, CONSTRUCTION GOING ALONG WITH FOURTH STREET. GOTCHA. AND I'M SORRY, TELL ME AGAIN, YOU'RE GOING TO, YOU'RE GONNA DO WHAT EXACTLY WITH THIS MONEY? UH, SORT OF THE SAME KIND OF THING WE'RE DOING WITH THE CURRENT FOURTH STREET PROJECT. UM, ADDITIONAL STORM SEWER, UH, CULVERTS TO JUST TO HELP DRAINAGE FLOW IN THAT PARTICULAR [00:30:01] INTERSECTION. SO, SO ALL $850,000 YOU THINK IS GONNA BE SPENT WITHIN THAT YELLOW BOX ON THAT MAP THAT YOU'RE SHOWING ESSENTIALLY. OKAY. POSSIBLY A LITTLE BIT MORE NORTH AND SOUTH THAN THAT, BUT CONCENTRATED IN THAT AREA. SO SOME OF THOSE DITCHES ALONG 3 59 THAT SEEMED TO DRAIN REALLY, REALLY, REALLY SLOWLY. AND WHERE YOU HAVE BUSINESS OWNERS COMPLAINING ABOUT DITCHES STAYING FULL OF WATER UP AND DOWN 3 59, IS THAT GONNA, WILL THIS LITTLE YELLOW BOX TAKE CARE OF PROBLEMS TO THE NORTH AND TO THE SOUTH OR JUST WITHIN THAT IMMEDIATE AREA? IT WILL, I MEAN, LIKE I SAID, IT, IT, IT WE'RE JUST KIND OF, THESE IMAGES ARE JUST KIND OF SHOWN THE GENERAL AREA OF WHERE WE'RE, WHERE THE PROJECT IS LOCATED. BUT YOU KNOW, IT, IT MAY BE SLIGHTLY MORE NORTH AND SOUTH OF THAT INTERSECTION, BUT THAT'S JUST KIND OF THE FOCUS AREA. BUT YES, TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION, UM, IT WILL, SO IT'S MOSTLY DIGGING UP THE STREETS AND ADDING BIGGER CULVERTS. IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE DOING? SO THIS WAS A, THIS WOULD BE A ADDRESSING A LARGER DRAINAGE ISSUE IN DOWNTOWN OVERALL UHHUH . SO, AND THIS IS JUST A PIECE OF KIND OF THE PUZZLE THAT WE DO FOR DRAINAGE. WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT DOING THE REGIONAL DETENTION PONDS LIKE WE'RE DOING FOR HARRIS STREET MM-HMM . AND INCLUSIVE OF WHAT WE'RE DOING FOR WALL STREET, YOU'RE GONNA START SEEING THOSE WILL INCREMENTALLY START CHANGING THE DRAINAGE MM-HMM . AND HOW WE DO DOWNTOWN MM-HMM . SO THIS IS JUST ONE OF THOSE CONNECTOR PIECES THAT WE WOULD'VE TO DO THAT WOULD CONNECT THE TWO PROJECTS FROM THE WEST SIDE TO THE EAST SIDE TO ALLOW THAT DRAINAGE TO FLOW BY UPSIZING AND GO RETOUCHING ALL THESE DITCHES TO ALLOW THE FLOW TO START GOING WHEN WE HAVE THOSE IMPROVEMENTS ON BOTH SIDES. I GUESS MY QUESTION IS, UM, WILL, WILL THIS, UH, I'M MOSTLY THINKING ABOUT BUSINESS OWNERS ON 3 59 THAT COMPLAIN ABOUT THEIR DITCHES STAYING FULL OF WATER AND WILL THIS HELP IT? YES, I UNDERSTAND ABOUT HARRIS STREET AND WALLACE STREET, BUT I'M NOT UNDERSTANDING ABOUT, UH, 3 59 NORTH AND SOUTH. RIGHT. THERE ARE, RIGHT NOW THE PROJECT IS EXPECTED TO IMMEDIATELY AFFECT THOSE BUSINESSES AROUND THIS AREA, UHHUH, . AND THEN, LIKE I SAID, UM, SECONDARY WOULD BE WHEN WE DO THE DETENTION PONDS FOR THE ENTIRE WEST SIDE OF BROWNSVILLE. THE BROWNSVILLE, SORRY, WRONG CITY. THAT'S MY OLD CITY . OKAY. WEST, YES. . OKAY. UH, OF THE WEST SIDE OF DOWNTOWN AS WELL AS THE EAST SIDE. SO, I MEAN, IT'S ALL ONE, UM, DRAINAGE NETWORK THAT WE'RE TRYING TO BUILD UP AND BUILD UPSIZE. AND THESE ARE JUST THOSE PROJECTS THAT ARE GONNA DO THAT AND GIVE US THE FLOW TO BE ABLE TO GET DRAINAGE OUT. THANK YOU. ABSOLUTELY. SO THIS, WE'RE JUST TALKING ABOUT THIS ONE INTERSECTION, IS THAT CORRECT? SO THE, THIS COULD GO, THIS PROJECT WILL ESSENTIALLY HELP CAPTURE THE FLOWS OF THOSE BUSINESSES UP 3 59 THAT WILL SEND THEM TO THE FOURTH CURRENT FOURTH STREET PROJECT DRAINAGE AND INTO THE TRIBUTARY. SO IT KIND OF PULLING THOSE FROM WELL, I, I MEAN, I'M WONDERING IF THERE ARE CULVERTS, UM, IF THERE ARE CULVERTS THAT NEED TO BE UPSIZED UPSIZED OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT UP AND DOWN 3 59 TO HELP IT GET TO THAT YELLOW AREA. SOME OF THOSE PORTIONS, UM, ARE REGRADING AND THEN WE'LL START DOING THAT BECAUSE THEY'RE OPEN DITCH RIGHT NOW. YEAH. UM, BUT I ALWAYS CAUTION, LIKE WHEN WE START TALKING ABOUT DOING IMPROVEMENTS, UHHUH OPEN DITCH IS REALLY THE BEST CONVEYANCE OF WATER. YES. AS OPPOSED TO TRUNKING IT IN. 'CAUSE THEN YOU'RE REALLY LIMITING HOW MUCH WATER CAN CONVEY THROUGH A DRAINAGE SYSTEM. SO THERE'S SOME UPKEEP THAT WE CAN WORK WITH, TEXT OUT ON, ON REGRADING THEIR DITCHES, WHICH IS A LOT EASIER THAN SAYING OKAY, IF THERE'S A BROKEN PIPE THAT WE'VE KIND OF PIPED IN TO DO THOSE TYPE OF FIXES. SO, BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY, THIS WOULD DEFINITELY STAFF DONE ANY OF THAT IN THE LAST 10 YEARS IN DOWNTOWN FOR SURE. I WOULD HAVE TO FOLLOW UP ON THAT ONE. OKAY. THAT'S ANOTHER FOLLOW UP QUESTION. YES. BECAUSE I'VE, I'VE BEEN HEARING COMPLAINTS FOR 5, 6, 7 YEARS AND THAT'S SOMETHING THAT SINCE WE ARE TALKING TO TECH STOCK QUITE A BIT ON DIFFERENT PROJECTS WE CAN BRING UP. OKAY. AND TO MAKE SURE THAT THOSE ARE THOSE PROFILES ARE I OPTIMIZED SO THAT WATER CAN FLOW. OKAY. THANK YOU. ABSOLUTELY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. I UNDERSTAND THE THEORY. I'M JUST SURPRISED IT COSTS $900,000 ON ONE INTERSECTION AND IT'S, AND LIKE I SAID, WE CAN KIND OF FIND AND TUNE THE SCOPE. THESE ARE SOME OF THESE PROJECTS THAT ARE COMING IN THAT WE HAVE BEEN WORKING THROUGH AND ARE NEEDED TO KIND OF BE DONE. AND THIS IS ONE OF THOSE PROJECTS BECAUSE IT, WHAT THE NATURE OF IT, WE ARE GONNA DO DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION IN [00:35:01] THE SAME YEAR. SO WE WILL HAVE A LOT MORE DETAIL ON EXACTLY HOW THE EXTENT OF, UM, THAT WE WOULD NEED TO IMPROVE ON TO FIX THE, AS MUCH DRAINAGE AS WE CAN WITH THIS CONNECTING TO FOURTH STREET. SO I SEEM TO RECALL SEVERAL YEARS AGO GETTING A GRANT TO HELP WITH, UH, REPLACING EVERY CULVERT ON LEAH LANE. I DON'T REMEMBER IF IT ALSO INCLUDED PENN LANE, BUT THAT WAS WAY MORE THAN TWO OR THREE CULVERTS. THAT WAS PROBABLY 20 OR 30 MM-HMM . AND I WANNA SAY THAT WHOLE PROJECT WAS HALF A MILLION. UM, NOW THOSE ARE RESIDENCES. YES. SO YEAH, THAT HAS A LOT TO DO WITH IT. UM, THE CONGESTION OR WHERE THE LO PROJECT LOCATION IS AT, UM, THAT HAS A LOT TO DO WITH, IS WITH IT AS WELL. UM, BUT WE DEFINITELY WANNA PUT IT IN FRONT OF Y'ALL JUST TO, SO THAT YOU'RE AWARE OF PROJECTS THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT, UM, TRYING TO ADDRESS MULTIPLE ISSUES THAT THE CITY HAS IN ITS BUSINESS DISTRICTS. SO, AS I MENTIONED, THESE ARE PROJECTS THAT WE'RE NOT COMING TO THE EDC BOARD TO ASK FOR FUNDING THIS YEAR, BUT PUT THEM MORE ON YOUR RADAR OF THINGS THAT WE KIND OF FORESEE COMING UP IN THE CIPP PROGRAM. OKAY. SO THE FIRST ONE IS THE DOWNTOWN PARKING GARAGE. I THINK YOU'VE SEEN THIS A FEW TIMES NOW. THIS SLIDE AND THIS ONE HAS NOT CHANGED . THE ONLY THING THAT I WOULD DEFINITELY CAVEAT ON THERE IS THAT THIS, THE PRICING THAT WE PUT ON THERE IS A VERY PRELIMINARY COST AND I THINK THEY, IT SHOULD CHANGE AS YOU START GETTING MORE INTO THE PER, UH, PRELIMINARY ENGINEERING REPORTS AS WELL AS INTO EARLY DESIGN. UM, BUT WE KIND OF HAD IT RIGHT NOW, AND YOU'LL SEE IT WHEN WE PUBLISH OUR CCIP, UM, BOOK, OUR BUDGET BOOK AS BEING AN FY 29 INTO 32 PROJECT SUBJECT TO CHANGE WHEN WE START NARROWING THIS DOWN A LITTLE BIT MORE, BUT JUST WANTED PUT IT ON Y'ALLS RADAR. WE'RE NOT DEFINITELY ASKING FOR ANY, YOU KNOW, CONSIDERATION ON THIS ONE, THAT DENSITY STUDY THAT WE APPROVED A MONTH OR TWO AGO. WILL THAT HELP? YES, MA'AM. WE WERE JUST ABOUT TO SAY THAT. MM-HMM . UM, WHEN THAT CONCLUDES, THEY'LL COME AND PRESENT TO THE BOARD AND WE WILL HAVE A MUCH MORE ACCURATE, UM, ESTIMATE FOR THE COST OF, OF A PARKING STRUCTURE THAT IS UP TO DATE. SO WE CAN PLUG THAT NUMBER IN. MM-HMM . ABSOLUTELY. UM, THIS IS ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE, UM, PROJECTS THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT FOR STREETS AND THE WEST DOWNTOWN STREET RECONSTRUCTION, UM, AS THE NAME KIND OF MENTIONED, THAT IS IN DESIGN RIGHT NOW. AND WE ARE, UM, LOOKING TO HAVE THAT IN GOING INTO CONSTRUCTION PRETTY SOON. BUT I JUST WANTED TO HAVE IT ON Y'ALL'S RADAR THAT THESE THIS IS GONNA GREATLY INFECT AFFECT THE ENTIRE DOWNTOWN ON THE WEST SIDE AND HOW, UM, THE AESTHETIC LOOKS, THE PROFILE OF THE ROADS ARE GONNA LOOK AND THERE'S GONNA BE A HIGH DOLLAR COST, BUT I THINK IT'S A MASSIVE IMPROVEMENT, UM, FOR THE WEST DOWNTOWN DISTRICTS. OKAY. YES, SIR. SO YOU HAVE, UH, ALL OF THE MONEY COMING FROM THE FORT BEND MOBILITY BOND RIGHT NOW? YES. SO THERE IS GONNA BE A, A COST SHARE TO THAT, UM, FROM WHAT I'M UNDERSTANDING. BUT WE JUST WANTED TO KIND OF PUT THIS AS, UM, TO LET Y'ALL KNOW THAT THESE PROJECTS ARE MOVING FORWARD AND THAT YOU CAN SEE OUR CRYSTAL BALL, IF YOU WILL, OF WHEN PROJECTS ARE COMING ONLINE AND HOW THEY WOULD AFFECT EDC AND THAT RIGHT NOW THIS IS OUR EARLY COST, UM, AND AS WE GET CLOSER TO CONSTRUCTION, WE'LL HAVE A MORE TIGHTENED UP OR DOWN ON WHERE THAT OPCC IS FOR THE PROJECT COSTS. OKAY. AND DOES THIS, THE, IT SAYS STREET RECONSTRUCTION, DOES THAT INCLUDE THE DRAINAGE THAT GOES ALONG? YES. YES. THIS, THIS, THIS, THE, THE, THIS $9 MILLION INCLUDES THE DRAINAGE FOR, UM, ONTO THE CURB AND YES. INTO THOSE WATER LINES GOING IN AND HOW IT CONNECTS ON TO HARRIS STREET AND TO WALLACE. OKAY. MM-HMM . UM, SO THIS IS MORE THAN JUST A STREET RECONSTRUCTION, THIS IS THE WHOLE WHOLE PROJECT? THAT'S CORRECT. OKAY. INCLUDING LANDSCAPING IS CURRENTLY, UH, INCLUDED IN THIS PROJECT IN SIDEWALKS MAYBE YES. AND SIDEWALKS, MAYBE . I AM VERY HOPEFUL THAT SIDEWALKS BE IN. OKAY. THEY ARE IN THE DESIGN. UM, BUT LIKE I SAID, I'M NOT CLOSE ENOUGH QUITE YET TO CONSTRUCTION THAT I CAN SAY WHAT THE PRICING'S GONNA LOOK LIKE FOR A PROJECT THIS SIZE. OKAY. AND AND IRRIGATION. AND THE IRRIGATION, YES. . UM, WE HAD A LOT OF CONVERSATIONS ABOUT IRRIGATION . YES. SO THIS, THE DESIGNING THE DESIGN AND SURVEY IS HIS LISTED AS HISTORICAL. IS THAT ALL DONE THAT IS BEING INCORPORATED INTO THE DESIGN? YES. HISTORICAL JUST BEING, UM, PREVIOUS YEAR'S FUNDING SURE. TO PAY FOR IT, BUT YES. SO, AND I MEAN WHEN I LOOK HERE MM-HMM . UM, YOU KNOW, DESIGN AND SURVEYING HAS ALREADY BEEN PAID FOR OR AT LEAST THE FUNDS HAVE BEEN ALLOCATED. CORRECT. WE STILL HAVE TWO YEARS BEFORE WE EXPECT YOU EXPECT MORE MONEY. CORRECT. UH, SO DO WE HAVE ANY ANTICIPATED, UM, START DATE ON THIS PROJECT? NOT QUITE YET. WE HAVE FORECAST, BUT WE HAVEN'T GOT THE, UM, GOTTEN THE GREEN LIGHT ON WHEN THAT CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE SHOULD BEGIN OR THE LETTING OF A CONTRACT WILL BEGIN. OKAY. SO JUST FOR REFERENCE FOR OTHER MEMBERS, UM, I'VE BEEN ASKING THE EXACT SAME QUESTION FOR SIX YEARS AND I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT WE ARE TWO YEARS AWAY [00:40:01] AND NOW WE ARE BEING TOLD TODAY WE ARE TWO YEARS AWAY. SO FOR REFERENCE, UH, WE HAVE REASON TO BELIEVE THAT UH, NO ONE HAS ANY REAL IDEA ON WHEN THIS WILL COME. AND PART OF IT IS BECAUSE THE FUNDING IS COMING FROM THE FORT BEND MOBILITY BOND. DO YOU WANT, UH, I WAS GONNA SAY, I WOULD LOVE FOR SOMEONE TO SAY, YOU KNOW WHAT, I HAVE SOME CONFIDENCE. TOMORROW. TOMORROW. TOMORROW. YEAH. NO, NOT TOMORROW. UM, IT, THIS PROJECT IS CONTINGENT ON THE WALL STREET PROJECT SCHEDULE THAT IS CORRECT. BEING COMPLETED. SO, CORRECT. WHICH IS ALSO COUNTY, UH, PARTICIPATED. SO NOT THAT OLD FOR MONTH. THAT'S CORRECT. YEAH. SO AGAIN, LET'S MAKE SURE WE'RE ALL ON THE SAME PAGE. YES. THE, AND I'M, THIS IS, I UNDERSTAND MY WIFE HAS TOLD ME ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS THAT THE TONE IN MY VOICE DOES NOT CONVEY WHAT I'M ACTUALLY TRYING TO SAY . OKAY. ANY, ANY ANNOYANCE I HAVE IS NOT WITH YOU. SURE. OR WITH THE CITY. EVEN WITH ANYONE IN THE PAST IN THE CITY. OKAY. IT IS WITH THE TO PROJECT IN TOTAL. RIGHT. WHOEVER IS POSSIBLY, POTENTIALLY IN CHARGE. OKAY. BECAUSE WE HAD, THERE ARE MULTIPLE, UH, ENTITIES DO WE HAVE, WE NEED, UM, UM, ACCESS RIGHT. UH, TO OTHER PEOPLE'S PROPERTIES, UM, TO GO THROUGH THEIR, TO WIDEN THE ROAD EASEMENTS. EASEMENT. THANK YOU. WE NEED EASEMENT. ARE ALL OF THOSE EASEMENTS DONE YET? MOST OF THEM ARE DONE. I UNDERSTAND. MOST HAVE BEEN DONE FOR SIX YEARS. I UNDERSTAND. I'M ASKING AND WE ARE STILL WORKING. YOU HAVE TO HAVE A HUNDRED PERCENT DONE. WE DO. AND, AND SO ALL IT TAKES IS 1%. IT DOES. WE HAVE THE EAST SIDE TRIBUTARY PROJECT THAT GOT HELD UP BY ONE BEING HELD UP. ABSOLUTELY. OKAY. SO I MEAN I WANT, AGAIN, I HAVE THIS ANNOYANCE TONE IN MY VOICE AND I APOLOGIZE. I JUST WANT EVERYONE ON THE BOARD TO RECOGNIZE THAT WHAT IS BEING SHOWN IN A POWERPOINT SLIDE WITH PRETTY PICTURES AND IN A SPREADSHEET DOES NOT MATCH THE REALITY. ALL IT TAKES IS ONE PERSON OF 1% OF A PROJECT TO DELAY US YEARS. AGREED. OKAY. AND WE HAVE LESS FUNDING TO, OR IS POTENTIALLY LESS FUNDING TO ENCOURAGE SPEED ON SOME OF THESE DECISIONS. AGREED. OKAY. SO, UM, AND THIS IS THE LARGEST PROJECT, UM, THAT HAS THE GREATEST IMPACT ON COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT IN THE CITY OF FULSOM. MM-HMM . I WANNA MAKE SURE WE'RE ALL CLEAR ON THAT. UH, IT WOULD BE WONDERFUL IF OTHER CITY LEADERS UNDERSTOOD HOW OUR CITY IS LACKING ITS DEVELOPMENT BECAUSE OF THIS ONE PROJECT. I APPRECIATE YOU SAYING THAT. 'CAUSE I WAS HAD A, WAS GONNA ASK A FOLLOW-UP QUESTION OF BASICALLY WHY IS THIS ONE NOT UNTIL 2028 BECAUSE THIS ONE FEELS OF SUCH HIGH PRIORITY, BUT, BUT THEN YOU MENTIONED THAT THIS IS CONTINGENT ON WALLACE STREET. IT IS, BUT WALLACE STREET STARTS FISCAL YEAR 2028 AND THEN GOES AT LEAST THROUGH FISCAL 2029. MM-HMM . SO IF THIS IS CONTINGENT ON WALLACE, WHY WOULD THIS EVEN BE ON A PROJECTED SCHEDULE REGARDLESS OF HOW ACCURATE THAT MAY BE? SURE. ON 2028, SHOULDN'T IT BE ON 2029? THERE'S UM, SOME PORTIONS OF THIS PROJECT CAN GET GOING CONCURRENTLY. OKAY. WITH WALL STREET. OKAY. UM, BUT THE BIGGEST PORTION IS THE, THE DRAINAGE PORTION AND THE DETENTION POND CONNECTIONS. SO THIS COULD POTENTIALLY FINISH AF WALL STREET COULD BOOKEND THIS WALL. WALL STREET COULD START, THIS COULD COME IN AND EVEN COMPLETE BEFORE WALL STREET ENDS. NO. MM-HMM. WE HAVE TO HAVE WALLACE FIRST COMPLETED. THE PORTIONS OF IT. PORTIONS OF IT. PORTIONS OF IT CAN, YES. BUT IT'S NOT GONNA BOOK IN. YEAH. OKAY. YES, BECAUSE THIS STILL SAYS, THIS SAYS 2029 WALLACE GOING THROUGH 2029 AND THIS IS ONLY FISCAL YEAR 2028. MM-HMM . THAT'S WHY I'M TRYING TO UNDERSTAND. SURE. IF WALL STREET HAS TO BE COMPLETELY FINISHED BEFORE THIS COULD FINISH, THEN THIS SHOULD ALSO BE PROJECTED 2028 AND 2029. NOT ALL IN ONE YEAR. AGREED. OKAY. SO WE CAN, YEAH, WE CAN DEFINITELY ADDRESS THAT. OKAY. THAT MIGHT HAVE JUST BEEN OVER. UH, CLICK ON MY SIDE, I APOLOGIZE. BUT YES, PART OF THIS WEST DOWNTOWN CAN RUN CONCURRENTLY WITH WALLACE, BUT THEY CANNOT, THIS PROJECT CANNOT GO PRIOR TO WALLACE. OKAY. HOW ABOUT THAT? AND BOTH OF THEM ARE USING THIS MOBILITY BOND. IS IT THE SAME BOND OR IS IT A DIFFERENT BOND? I BELIEVE IT'S OLDER. WHENEVER OLD BEND WILL PUT IT ON A MOBILITY BOND. YES. I THINK IT'S AN OLD BOND. SO DO THEY NOT HAVE THE BOND AUTHORITY YET? FORT BEND? NO, THIS HAS NOT BEEN APPROVED ON A MOBILITY BOND YET. OH. SO WE'RE JUST MAKING WALLACE IS WALLACE IS WALLACE IS, OH, WALLACE, OKAY. YES, WALLACE IS, SO WALLACE IS A REAL BOND AND THEN THIS OTHER BOND IS THAT WE ARE HOPING [00:45:01] THAT THEY GET A BOND. THEY, AS BEST I CAN TELL FROM THE TIME I'VE BEEN OUT HERE, AND BRIAN, YOU MAY HAVE BEEN WATCHING IT MORE CLOSELY THAN ME OR MICHELLE, BUT I THINK THE COUNTY TENDS TO DO MOBILITY BONDS ABOUT EVERY THREE YEARS. AND I DON'T REMEMBER AT, YOU KNOW, THE, THE WALLACE STREET BOND, THAT WAS, I THINK THE LAST TIME THE COUNTY HAD A MOBILITY BOND AND I CAN'T REMEMBER IF THAT WAS 23 OR 24. SO I MEAN, THEY OUGHT TO BE COMING UP IN THE NEXT, IT WOULD BE COMING UP YEAR OR TWO. AND THAT'S SOMETHING THAT VOTERS WOULD NEED TO APPROVE. YES. IS VOTER APPROVAL REQUIRED? ALTHOUGH, ALTHOUGH I WILL SAY THIS, I DO NOT RECALL A FORT BEND MOBILITY BOND EVER BEING DENIED BY THE VOTERS. OKAY. THE ONLY THING I REMEMBER BEING DENIED ARE FOOTBALL STADIUMS . OKAY. BUT I THINK IT'S STILL WORTH C-I-S-D-I THINK IT'S STILL WORTH CALLING OUT THAT WHAT WE'RE TALKING WHEN WE PUT THESE DOLLARS TOWARDS THE MOBILITY BOND, THAT THAT IS NOT SOMETHING THAT ACTUALLY HAS VOTER OUR APPROVAL YET. IT DOESN'T CURRENTLY EXIST. YEAH. YES. I I THINK IT'S FOR WORTH CAROLINA. YEAH, SURE. ALTHOUGH WHAT I, WHAT I DO RECALL IS THAT THE COMMISSIONER FOR OUR AREA, BE IT ANDY MEYERS BEFORE OUR COMMISSIONER MORALES NOW MM-HMM . I THINK THEY'RE VERY GOOD ABOUT COMING OUT AND TALKING TO CITY STAFF YEAH. AND ASKING HOW, HOW CAN WE BE HELPFUL OR HOW, YOU KNOW, IS THERE ANY, ANY ROOM FOR COOPERATION ON THINGS LIKE THAT. ABSOLUTELY. SO THAT IS VERY MUCH APPRECIATED RIGHT NOW, PART OF, AGAIN, JUST REITERATING THAT PART OF THIS IS OUT OF OUR HANDS ON HOW WE DO THE SCHEDULING AND LETTING, UH, FOR THESE PROJECTS, BUT WE JUST DEFINITELY WANNA KEEP IT ON THE RADAR OF FUTURE PROJECTS COMING UP. SO, WELL, AND I, I DO APPRECIATE THAT I CAN, I CAN APPRECIATE ALL THE UNKNOWNS WITH, WITH THIS, BUT AT LEAST IT TELLS US, YOU KNOW, THIS IS ABOUT $10 MILLION TO TAKE CARE OF IT IN, IN BIG ROUND NUMBERS. SO, AND LET'S, LET'S HOPE THE NUMBERS MAYBE WILL GO DOWN. WE'LL SEE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR THIS ONE? AND WALLACE IS RIGHT AFTER IT. SO AGAIN, I THINK WE KIND OF TOUCHED ON WALLACE A LITTLE BIT. UM, AGAIN, THIS IS AN ILA, UH, WITH FORT BEND COUNTY AND WE ARE LOOKING AT 5.2 FOR THIS AND IT'S A 50 50 SPLIT, UM, RIGHT NOW FROM CITY AND FORT BEND COUNTY. UM, WE ARE WORKING WITH THE DESIGN TEAMS TO KIND OF KEEP THIS ONE MOVING. WE'VE GONE THROUGH THE REVIEW PHASE. WE ARE, WHICH WE'RE AT REVIEW FOR THIS ONE. 60. 60. YEAH. WE WENT THROUGH IT ABOUT A MONTH AGO. YEAH. SO WE HAVE GOTTEN 60% DESIGNS FOR WALLACE AND WE HAD, WE DIDN'T HAVE AS MANY COMMENTS AS WE THOUGHT WE WOULD, BUT THERE'S SOME REWORKING THAT NEEDS TO HAPPEN ON THERE. AND AGAIN, THESE ARE ALL PROJECTS THAT NEED TO HAVE SOME SEQUENCING DONE WITH THEM AS THEY START GOING INTO NEARING CONSTRUCTION PHASES. AND THE ACTUAL CONSTRUCTION IS BEING DONE BY THE COUNTY, OVERSEE CONSTRUCTION, OVERSEE, OVERSEEING, OR LETTING FOR CONTRACTOR IS YEAH. SO WE WILL, ANY AND ALL, IT'LL BE GOING IN FOR, UM, PUT OUT FOR SOLICITATION FOR CONTRACTOR TO COME IN AND DO THE WORK SIMILAR TO HOW, AND THE COUNTY DOES THAT, ALL OF THAT. THEY DO OVERSEE THAT PORTION. MM-HMM . OKAY. ONE LAST QUESTION. HEY, NOW WE, YEAH, THERE WAS A HUNDRED, I'M SORRY, WE HAD THE PRELIMINARY ONE HUNDREDS. I APOLOGIZE FOR DESIGN SET. OKAY. I TOLD YOU I WAS 60 AND I APOLOGIZE. OKAY. WAIT, SORRY, WHAT THE A HUNDRED PERCENT WE'VE RECEIVED A HUNDRED PERCENT DESIGN CONSTRUCTION SET FOR THESE FOR REVIEW. SO WE'VE DONE THE, THE REVIEW FOR THEM AND SENT THEM BACK TO THE DESIGNER OF RECORD FOR THEM TO INCORPORATE THE REVISIONS. AND NOW WE'RE WAITING AGAIN ON FORT BEND TO KIND OF GET READY TO DO THESE A HUNDRED PERCENT AND LET THIS OUT FOR SOLICITATION. SO THEN THAT 900,000 FOR DESIGN AND SURVEYING IN FISCAL YEAR 2028 IS ALREADY SPENT OR ARE WE NOT PAYING FOR IT YET? LEMME GO BACK AND CHECK ON THAT ONE. UM, THAT MAY BE A MISTYPE OF MINE ON THAT SHEET. ON THE COLUMN. ON THE COLUMN. MM-HMM . IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE 26. RIGHT. OKAY. THAT MAY HAVE JUST BEEN MINE AND OH, GO. JUST SINCE I'M ASKING QUESTIONS ON BONDS. SURE. UH, THE CITY BONDS ARE ALREADY VOTER APPROVED. YES. FOR THIS PROJECT, FOR THIS, FOR THE WALL STREET PROJECT. YES. THAT LINE ITEM. MM-HMM . OKAY. YES. SO WHAT, WHAT , SO WHAT'S STOPPING, WHAT'S STOPPING THIS [00:50:01] PROJECT? THIS IS ALSO BEING LED BY FORT BEND. SO IT'S THEIR KIND OF TIMELINE TO KIND OF PUSH THIS ONE FORWARD. BUT LIKE I SAID, WE HAVE A HUNDRED PERCENT, SO THERE SHOULDN'T BE ANYTHING ELSE STOPPING THIS PROJECT TO PROCEED TO SOLICITATION. AND THEN CONSEQUENT CONSTRUCTION, DO WE HAVE ALL THE RIGHT OF WAY ACCESS THAT WE NEED TO FOR THIS PROJECT? YEAH. WE'RE AT YEAH. BEING AT A HUNDRED PERCENT THEN WE ARE BASICALLY WRAPPING UP THE DESIGN PHASE. OKAY. SO THERE'S NOTHING ELSE THAT I'M AWARE OF IN OUR CONVERSATION WITH FORT BEND THAT WOULD BE HOLDING THIS ONE UP. OKAY. SO MM-HMM . WHO IN FROM THE CITY, UH, PUSHES FORT BEND COUNTY TO MOVE FORWARD ON THE PROJECT. SO OUR DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS, OUR ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER AND OUR CITY MANAGER MEET REGULARLY MM-HMM . WITH FORT BEND COUNTY TO DISCUSS, UM, ALL OVERLAPPING PROJECTS AND TIMELINES. WOULD THIS BE FORT BEND ROAD AND BRIDGE? UM, I BELIEVE THEY'RE GONNA LET THIS ONE OUT FOR CONSTRUCTION FROM AN OUTSIDE GENERAL CONTRACTOR. I DON'T THINK IT'S GONNA BE A INTERNAL, IT GOES TO DIFFERENT DEPARTMENT WITHIN FORT BEND THEN OH. OVERSEEING THE PROJECT OR DOING THE WORK. SO OVERSEEING THE PROJECT, OVERSEEING THE PROJECT WILL STILL BE ROAD AND BRIDGE. BEND BRIDGE. CORRECT. I APOLOGIZE, I THOUGHT YOU WERE DOING THE WORK RIDE SPEED DIAL. SO IF YOU NEED TO CONTACT , THE QUESTION I HAD ON, ON, UM, THE WEST DOWNTOWN STREET RECONSTRUCTION WHERE IT SAYS FORT BEND MOBILITY BONDS AND ALSO ON WALLACE MM-HMM . UM, I GUESS THE QUESTION I HAVE FOR BOTH OF THOSE, IS THAT SOMETHING WHERE THE CITY IS CONTEMPLATING ADDING THAT TO THE INS TAX RATE ON THOSE? I WOULD'VE TO GET WITH CLIFF ON THAT PORTION. YEAH. YEAH, THAT'S, IT'S JUST A QUESTION TO COME BACK AND, UH, MAYBE SHARE THAT INFORMATION WITH US PLEASE. SURE. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ON THESE? THIS WAS MY LAST SLIDE. WELL, THANK Y'ALL VERY MUCH. THANK YOU. OH, OH, OH, SORRY. YEAH, NO MORE PROJECT QUESTIONS ON THIS . THE, SO YOU SHOW US A SERIES OF PROJECTS MM-HMM . UH, ARE THERE, ARE WE ANTICIPATING NEW PROJECTS OR DO YOU KNOW OF PROJECTS THAT, UH, WE MIGHT SEE OR, OR ARE THESE THE ONES FOR US TO BE THINKING ABOUT AND CONTEMPLATING? SO I GUESS I COULD ASK FOR FEEDBACK OF KIND OF HOW Y'ALL WOULD LIKE TO SEE IT. 'CAUSE I MEAN I HAVE A BOOK OF PROJECTS, UM, AND WE DEFINITELY WOULD LIKE TO, WE KIND OF WANNA HIGHLIGHT A FEW OF THEM THAT WE FEEL LIKE WOULD BE KIND OF RIGHT UP WHERE Y'ALL WOULD DESIRE THE PROJECTS TO BE. BUT, UM, I AM ALL FOR IF Y'ALL WOULD LIKE TO SEE ADDITIONAL PROJECT TO SHOW THEM. UM, LIKE I MENTIONED, I AM GOING THROUGH THE CIP UPDATES FOR THE SHEETS AND IF THAT WOULD BE AGREEABLE TO Y'ALL, I CAN SEND YOU ADDITIONAL EXCEL SHEETS, KINDA LIKE WITH THIS, BUT JUST UPDATED, UM, LIKE I SAID, LAST TWO WEEKS I WAS REALLY AT THE BEGINNING OF THE FY 27 CHANGES AND NOW I'M KIND OF FINALIZING THOSE AND IF, SO, IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE ADDITIONAL FROM ANY ONE OF THE CATEGORIES THAT I HAVE FOR CIP I'M MORE THAN HAPPY TO SHARE AND Y'ALL CAN BRING QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS. SO I WOULD LIKE TO SEE, EVEN IF WE CONSIDER IT AN APPENDIX OF MM-HMM . HERE ARE PROJECTS THAT FOUR PLUS FIVE PLUS YEARS AWAY. ABSOLUTELY. BUT THESE ARE IN POTENTIAL PROJECTS, YOU KNOW, YOU CAN PUT, YOU KNOW, 10% OR 50% CHANCE OF HAPPENING OR WHATEVER, JUST FOR THERE TO BE SOME SORT OF, OF, OF A VISION OF SURE. WHAT COULD BE COMING DOWN LATER. OKAY. YEP. BUT YOU'RE, YOU'RE TALKING PRETTY MUCH ANYTHING THAT WOULD BE EDC RELATED, NOT LIKE, YOU'RE NOT LOOKING AT WATER WELLS. I'M, NO, I'M NOT, I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT WATER WELLS. I'M TALKING ABOUT EDC COMMERCIAL SPECIFICALLY INFRASTRUCTURE. I WAS READY TO GIVE YOU EVERYTHING. NO, NOT ALL THAT. NOT, I MEAN, IF THAT'S EASIER FOR YOU AND FOR US TO GO THROUGH IT, BUT, UH, YEAH, SPECIFICALLY EED THAT COULD POTENTIALLY BE EDC RELATED. I COULD DO THAT. ABSOLUTELY. ALL SET. THANK Y'ALL VERY MUCH FOR YOUR TIME. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. AND I, I ALSO, AGAIN FOR, FOR THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR TIME AND I WANNA MAKE SURE THAT FOR THOSE OF YOU, UM, HISTORICALLY WE'VE NOT HAD MEETINGS LIKE THIS, UM, WHERE WE'VE GOTTEN KIND OF, OKAY, HERE ARE THE PRELIMINARY STUFF. LET US ASK QUESTIONS. WE WILL, YOU KNOW, SOME OF THE QUESTIONS WILL BE ANSWERED OFFLINE WE'LL TO HAVE ANOTHER CONVERSATION. SO, UM, I'M GRATEFUL THAT Y'ALL HAVE MADE IT OUT TODAY. ANSWER SOME QUESTIONS, HEAR THE ANNOYANCE IN MY VOICE, I APOLOGIZE FOR THAT. I'M GOING TO APOLOGIZE FOR THAT EVERY TIME I HAVE TO TALK UNFORTUNATELY. UM, BUT TO HOPEFULLY ADD SOME TRANSPARENCY AND MAKE OUR DECISION MAKING A LITTLE EASIER SO THAT WE DON'T GET ONE MEETING AND IT'S ALL, GIVE US ALL THIS MONEY AT ONCE AND WE'RE ALL LIKE, UH, WE HAVE 30 QUESTIONS PER PROJECT AND WE'RE [00:55:01] NOT GONNA GET THROUGH THIS. THANK Y'ALL. ALRIGHT. RUN CALL THE ITEM. OKAY. AND THEN, OKAY, SORRY. APPARENTLY I CLOSED THE FILE THAT I NEED TO OPEN. SO, SORRY. DO YOU NEED AN AGENDA COPY? UH, NO I'M NOT THAT OLD YET. , I'M TRYING TO, HANG ON. TRYING TO HANG ON. OKAY. ITEM F FOUR F, IS THAT WHERE WE ARE? UH, EE [Business - E] SORRY. OKAY. I WAS CONFUSED. CIP YEAH. UPDATE ON EDC FUNDED CIP PROJECTS. HARRIS STREET, DOWNTOWN EAST SIDE DRAINAGE. OKAY, I'LL START WITH HARRIS STREET. SO RECENTLY WE COMPLETED OUR INFORMAL SOLICITATION FOR THE LANDSCAPING PORTION OF PHASE ONE OF HARRIS STREET. UH, WE AWARDED THE CONTRACT TO SILVER SAND SERVICES AND WE'RE EXPECTING A NOTICE TO PROCEED PROBABLY HERE IN THE NEXT WEEK OR SO, VERY SOON. UH, SO THAT'LL GET KICKED OFF VERY SOON. THE LANDSCAPING PORTION, UM, WE OPENED BIDS FOR THE PHASE TWO PORTION OF THE OVERALL HAIR STREET PROJECT ON MARCH 31ST. WE'RE GOING TO PRESENT THAT TO COUNSEL NEXT THIS COMING TUESDAY ON APRIL 21ST AND GET THAT CONTRACT AWARDED. UM, AND THEN CONTINUE ON WITH THE REMAINDER OF THE PROJECT. UH, AS FAR AS DG MEDINA NEWS, UH, WE DID PAY OUT, PAY OUT, PAY APP 10 AND WE'RE CURRENTLY WORKING THROUGH THE RETAINAGE AGREEMENT, SO THAT'LL BE THE FINAL PAYMENT FOR DG MEDINA AND WE'LL BE, UH, DONE WITH THEIR PORTION COMPLETELY. UM, SO LIKE, SO UPCOMING ITEMS, LIKE I SAID, UM, NEXT TUESDAY WITH COUNCIL'S BLESSING, WE WILL GET THE PHASE TWO PORTION OF THE PROJECT AWARDED AND, UH, LOOKING AT AN NTP IN STILL IN MAY. SO JUST FYI DID THOSE BIDS COME IN, UH, UNDER, OVER WHAT WAS ANTICIPATED. UH, THEY RIGHT AT RIGHT AT WITHIN BUDGET. THANK YOU. SO, YES MA'AM. SO ASSUMING THAT WE HAVE A NOTICE PER PROCEED IN MAY, 2026, THAT PUTS OUR ESTIMATED COMPLETION DATE AT, SO RIGHT NOW WE HAVE THE PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE OR DAYS TWO SUBSTANTIAL COMPLETION AT TWO 60. UH, SO THAT, THAT'S CURRENTLY WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT TIMELINE WISE. CAN YOU TRANSLATE THAT TO A CALENDAR MONTH FOR ME PLEASE? NINE, NINE MONTHS. NINE MONTHS, OKAY. UNDER NINE MONTHS. AND WE ARE GONNA WORK ON THE SEQUENCING SO THAT THE CONTRACTOR WOULD, UM, IDEALLY START ON THE PLAZA SECTION FIRST AND MOVE BACK THE OTHER WAY. UM, AND WE ARE GONNA KIND OF JUST ENCOURAGE HIM TO, DAVID, CAN YOU JUST SAY AND THEN WALK, WE FORGOT JUST FOR THE RECORDING. UM, WE ARE WORKING, GONNA WORK WITH THE CONTRACTOR, UM, ONCE THIS IS AWARDED, UH, DURING THE PRECON TO SEE IF WE CAN FOCUS ON THE SEQUENCING OF HIS CONSTRUCTION. UH, IDEALLY DOING THE PLAZA SECTION FIRST OR MOVING BACK OR TOWARD THE COMPLETED PORTION OF THE, THE CONTRACT, UM, ON SECOND STREET. AND, UH, WE'LL GIVE YOU MORE UPDATES ONCE WE HAVE A PRE-CONSTRUCTION MEETING OF WHAT THAT SCHEDULE'S GONNA LOOK LIKE. BUT I BELIEVE WE HAVE A VERY RESPONSIVE CONTRACTOR THAT IS WILLING AND REALLY CLOSE BY THAT COULD DO A LOT OF THIS WORK ON IN AN EXPEDITED FASHION. THANK YOU. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ON HARRIS STREET? MM-HMM. ALL RIGHT. MOVING ON TO FOURTH STREET, DOWNTOWN EAST SIDE DRAINAGE. UH, SO THE CONTRACTOR HAS MOBILIZED AND HAS BEGAN INSTALLING THEIR STORM SEWER BOXES STARTING AT THE TRIBUTARY OUTFALL POINT. UH, THEY'RE CURRENTLY JUST EAST OF THE SIMS AND FOURTH STREET INTERSECTION, SO THEY ARE MOVING RIGHT ALONG AT A GOOD PACE WITH THEIR STORM SEWER. UM, SO IS THAT WHY HOUSTON STREET IS BLOCKED OFF RIGHT NOW? YES. OKAY. CORRECT. THANK YOU. I'LL KEEP Y'ALL UPDATED IN OUR NEXT MEETING ON IF FOURTH STREET AND SIMS IS BLOCKED. 'CAUSE I TAKE IT EVERY DAY. [01:00:01] FOURTH AND SIMS WILL STARTING. WE'RE ANTICIPATING THIS WEEK, WEDNESDAY OR THURSDAY. DID YOU NOT GET YOUR DOOR HANGER? OH, I DON'T GET IT. THEY DON'T, THEY DIDN'T GIVE ME A DOOR HANGER ON THE BUSINESS. OUR BAD. DO Y'ALL GIVE BUSINESSES? WE WILL PUT OUT A SOCIAL MEDIA NOTICE AS WELL. UH, OKAY. 48 HOURS IN ADVANCE TOO. SO IN, IN THEIR DEFENSE, I'M PROBABLY THE ONLY ONE WHO TAKES THIS INTERSECTION TO GO FROM MY HOUSE TO THE . YEAH. SO, OKAY. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ON FOURTH STREET? I THINK WE JUST RECEIVED OUR FIRST PAYOUT, SO WORKING THROUGH THAT, THERE'S NO ESTIMATE. SORRY. NO ESTIMATE LIKE ON COMPLETION YET THOUGH, RIGHT? YES. SO WE'RE LOOKING JUST UNDER, JUST UNDER A YEAR FOR THE TOTALITY OF THIS PROJECT. YES. 330 DAYS. I THINK WHAT WOULD BE NICE TO SEE ON THESE SUMMARIES IS, UH, BASICALLY, UH, A PERCENTAGE OF COMPLETION OF THE PROJECT. THERE'S REALLY NOTHING ON HERE THAT TELLS ME JUST WITHOUT HAVING HISTORICAL KNOWLEDGE, RIGHT. WHERE, WHERE EXACTLY WE ARE IN THIS PROJECT. SURE. NONE OF US KNOW WHAT POP MEANS. SO, SO WE WILL DEFINITELY START DOING THAT NOW THAT WE'RE GETTING INTO CONSTRUCTION WITH BOTH OF THESE. UM, HARRIS DID HAVE, I BELIEVE A PERCENTAGE ON THERE. UM, AND NOW THEY SAID THEY WERE JUST KICKING OFF. AND AS WE START GETTING INTO THIS, WE WILL DEFINITELY PROVIDE A, UH, PERCENTAGE OF COMPLETION AND WRITE OUT PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE OR THE CONTRACTUAL TIME, WHICH IS POPI MEAN, WHAT, WHAT WE WANT TO KNOW IS WHAT, WHAT DOES THE, WHEN GONNA GET DONE, WHEN WHEN'S THE DATE? ABSOLUTELY. RIGHT. BECAUSE THAT'S THE QUESTION WHEN WE START TALKING ABOUT THIS TO OTHER PEOPLE, WE DON'T TALK ABOUT POP AND PERCENTAGE OF COMPLETION. EVERYONE WANTS TO KNOW WHEN IS IT GONNA BE FINISHED. SURE. AND, YOU KNOW, DECEMBER 1ST, WE CAN DO THAT. WE CAN PROVIDE THAT OR YEAH. THAT IT CAN BE, I UNDERSTAND IT'S AN ESTIMATE, BUT THAT GIVES, THAT'S VERY HELPFUL TO US. NO, ABSOLUTELY. WE HAVE PREFERRED PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE AS WELL AS THE EXPECTED COMPLETION DATE. AND IF ANYTHING CHANGES, WE'LL DEFINITELY SHOW THAT THERE'S AN INCREASE ON THOSE CALENDAR DAYS FOR THE CONTRACT. YOU HAVE ANY OTHER FOUR STREET QUESTIONS? NO. OKAY. I'M GOOD. YOU GOOD? MM-HMM. IS THAT IT? AWESOME. THAT'S IT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU GUYS.

IT WAS EITHER TWO OR THREE. SO NOW WE KNOW IT'S US TWO. YES. OKAY. THANK YOU. UH, ITEM TWO, JUST UH, RECAP OF OUR UPCOMING BUDGET SCHEDULE. GENERALLY, UH, DURING THE MONTH OF MAY, WE WILL BRING OUR MID-YEAR BUDGET REPORTS TO YOU FOR REVIEW. WE WILL BRING THE A SA FOR REVIEW. WE WILL DISCUSS BUDGET PARAMETERS AND FUNDING PRIORITIES. [01:05:01] SO NOW THAT YOU'VE SEEN, YOU KNOW, WHAT THE REQUEST IS, GENERALLY WE'LL GET ALL OF YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED, BRING THAT BACK, AND THEN HEAR FROM YOU WHAT YOU WOULD LIKE FOR US TO FOCUS ON ON AS WE DRAFT THAT BUDGET. SO WE'LL TAKE ALL THAT FEEDBACK FROM OUR MAY MEETING. WE'LL BRING BACK TO YOU IN JUNE, THE DRAFT OF THE FISCAL YEAR 26 BUDGET AND THE DRAFT OF THE A SA AT THAT POINT YOU CAN REVIEW, WE CAN HAVE A DISCUSSION FOR ANY EDITS OR, UM, CHANGES MADE. AND THEN COME JULY WE WILL HAVE EVERYTHING BACK TO YOU FOR FINAL APPROVAL. SO THAT'LL BE THE BUDGET. THE A SA WE WILL MAKE ANY PROJECT DECLARATIONS AS NEEDED BY STATUTE, DEPENDING ON WHAT YOU CHOOSE TO FUND OR ANY PROJECTS THAT WE CHOOSE TO TAKE ON AS A BOARD, WE'LL HOST THOSE PUBLIC HEARINGS AND ISSUE PUBLIC NOTICE AS NEEDED. UM, AND THEN THAT WILL GO TO COUNSEL FOR THEIR FINAL APPROVAL. ITEM THREE, THE ICSC RED RIVER REPORT. SO THAT'S INCLUDED IN YOUR PACKET FOR YOU TO REVIEW AGAIN. UM, SOMETIMES THERE, THERE'S COMMENTS ON, YOU KNOW, WHY, WHY ARE THESE REDACTED THERE? JUST REDACTED AT THE REQUEST OF THAT RETAILER OR GROCER AS THEY'RE CONSIDERING OUR AREA. UM, AND I DO WANNA POINT OUT, JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE SHOWING INTEREST IN THE CITY OF SHORE, IT DOESN'T MEAN THAT IT IS SOMETHING THAT THIS STAFF OR, UM, THE MANAGEMENT OF THE CITY IS OUT THERE RECRUITING. IT JUST MEANS THEY'RE, THEY'RE GETTING IN TOUCH WITH US. IT'S NOT SOMETHING WE'RE ACTIVELY, NOT EVERYTHING ON THERE IS SOMETHING WE'RE ACTIVELY PURSUING OR ANYTHING WE WOULD INCENTIVIZE. SO JUST WANNA MAKE THAT CLEAR. UH, FROM THESE CONVERSATIONS, WERE THERE ANYTHING, ANY COMMON BARRIERS SHOWING UP TO WHY PEOPLE WOULD NOT WANT TO BE HERE? THE BIGGEST IS ROOFTOPS STILL. UM, A LOT OF OUR HIGHER END RETAILERS, UM, OR MORE TRAFFIC REQUIRING RETAILERS, AS MUCH AS MANY ROOFTOPS AS WE DO HAVE AND AS MANY ROOFTOPS AS THERE ARE IN THE SURROUNDING AREAS, YOU KNOW, WE DON'T HAVE THE SAME PULL AS A CITY CENTER OR, YOU KNOW, DOWNTOWN HOUSTON HAS FOR, FOR FOOT TRAFFIC. SO THAT'S, THAT'S REALLY OUR BIGGEST, UH, ISSUE. NOW, IS NUMBERS , WAS THERE A NUMBER ROOFTOPS THAT THEY MENTIONED THAT THEY WANNA GET TO, OR I MEAN, 'CAUSE WE'RE CLOSE TO WHAT, 25,000 OR MORE? OR IT, IT REALLY DEPENDS ON THE RETAILER AND, YOU KNOW, LUCKILY FOR US IT'S NOT NECESSARILY THE ROOFTOPS WITHIN CITY LIMITS. SO, YOU KNOW, IT'S THE MARKET AREA. IT'S THE MARKET AREA. SO WE, WE HAVE A LOT IN, IN THE MARKET AREA. I THINK OUR, UM, OUR FIVE OR 10 MILE IS CLOSE TO 300,000 PEOPLE. UM, SO THAT'S GREAT. WE'RE, WE'RE STARTING TO GET THOSE, THE RETAILERS THAT PEOPLE HAVE BEEN REQUESTING OVER THE YEARS ARE STARTING TO KIND OF HIT THAT THRESHOLD WHERE WE CAN REALLY BE CONSIDERED MM-HMM . UM, AND WE WILL CONTINUE TO SEE THAT AS OUR NEIGHBORING AREAS ARE STARTING TO DEVELOP MORE RAPIDLY.
