EXECUTIVE SESSION AT 6:49 PM[1. Present and Discuss a Review of the March 27, 2023 Special Meeting on Strategic Planning. ]
SO THE NEXT ITEM WE'RE GONNA WORK SESSION ITEM ONE, PRESENT, DISCUSS A REVIEW OF MARCH 27TH, 2023.SPECIAL MEETING, OUR STRATEGIC PLAN.
[00:10:01]
GONNA GO THROUGH A PRESENTATION, RECAPPING THE STRATEGIC PLAN AND, AND KIND OF GEAR US TOWARD THE NEXT STEPS AS FAR AS ADOPTING THE PILLARS AS WE MOVE FORWARD.UM, HOW WE HAD A, A PRODUCTIVE SESSION FOR AT THE STRATEGIC PLANNING SESSION.
SOME REALLY GOOD DISCUSSION, UM, WAS ABLE TO HAVE STAFF INTERACT AND HAVE SOME GOOD CONVERSATIONS ABOUT VISIONS AND GOALS.
AND SO, UM, UH, BILL'S GONNA KIND OF TAKE THAT AND THEN KIND OF GEAR US BACK TO THE PILLARS AND, AND TALK ABOUT HOW THEY, HOW THEY TOGETHER.
UH, BILL HOLLY, DIRECTOR OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES.
AND AGAIN, THE, THE TOPIC FOR TONIGHT.
WE'LL REVIEW THE, UH, MARCH 27TH, UH, VISION GOALS AND STRATEGIES THAT WERE DEVELOPED.
WE'LL DETERMINE IF YOU'RE SATISFIED WITH THOSE.
AND THEN WE'LL BE LOOKING FOR DIRECTION REGARDING THE 20 FISCAL YEAR, 2024 PILLARS AND MILESTONES.
SO, UH, IF YOU CONTINUE, YOU KNOW, I READ THE VISION, YOU KNOW, UH, THE LAST PARAGRAPH, AND I THINK IT DOESN'T MAKE MUCH SENSE IN ENGLISH.
GRAMMAR, YOU KNOW, I MEAN, UH, THE TOM
OUR UNIQUE PLACES AND EXPERIENCES ENHANCE THE QUALITY OF LIFE OF OUR RESIDENTS, BUSINESSES, WORKERS, AND VISITORS.
THEN THE NEXT PARAGRAPH, AND MAKE US THE PLACE DOESN'T MAKE SENSE, US IS NOT THE PLACE TO LIVE, WORK, AND VISIT.
SO, SO SOMETHING WRONG OVER HERE.
THIS WORD MAKE US THE PLACE US SHOULD BE ADDISON.
SO, SO THIS NEED TO BE CHANGED.
SO VERY OTHER COUNCIL FEEL, YOU KNOW, I THINK EITHER YOU WANNA REPEAT, MAKE THE TOWN OF ADDISON, THE PLACE TO LIVE, WORK, AND VISIT, OR MAKES ADDISON THE PLACE TO LIVE.
WELL, JUST ADDISON, WHICH IS, WHICH IS BETTER MAKES ADDISON MAKE ADDISON.
ADDISON MAKES, MAKES PLURAL MAKES ADDISON.
WE WILL MAKE, THAT WAS EASY ON THE GOALS.
WE HAD FOUR GOALS, OFFICER COMMENTS ON.
SO AS, AS WE KIND OF GO TO THE GOALS AND WE GO TO THE COVERS, THESE GOALS WERE THE OP OFFSHOOT OF ALL THE CONVERSATIONS THAT WE HAD DURING THE PLANNING SESSION AS WE DID THOSE BREAKOUTS.
AND WE KIND OF CAME TOGETHER, THE COALESCE ON SOMETIMES.
SO STAFF ALSO LOOKED AT IT AFTERWARDS AND NOTICED A, A DIRECT CORRELATION BETWEEN THESE FOUR GOALS AND THE EXISTING SEVEN PILLARS.
THEY WERE, THEY ALL WERE CONTAINED, UH, WITHIN THE EXISTING PILLARS.
AND I KNOW THERE WAS A CONVERSATION ABOUT RETAINING THE TERMS, PILLARS AND, AND MILESTONES VERSUS GOALS AND STRATEGIES.
SO WE WERE LOOKING FOR COUNCIL'S THOUGHTS, DIRECTION ON, ON THAT AS WELL.
BY THE TIME WE FINISH TONIGHT, ANY COMMENTS ON THE GOALS OR EDITS? UM, JUST KEEP GOING.
UH, AND THEN ON THE STRATEGIES, UH, FIVE STRATEGIES WERE DEVELOPED.
THE BRACE IS THE BRAVE INFORMATION.
I DON'T RECALL IF YOU GOT IT SEPARATELY OR THE BRAVE.
YEAH, PROBABLY YOU NEED A LIST OF THE BRAVE STANDS FOR, UH, BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T PICK UP THE FIRST WOR LETTER OF EACH FIVE WORDS.
SO PROBABLY YOU NEED TO, YOU KNOW, SPECIFY.
ALRIGHT, THAT'S GOOD FOR THAT.
YOU'LL PUT THE FIRST LETTER OF EACH WORD, BUT YOU ARE NOT, SO WE TRIED
THE, THE, THIS WORDING, I THINK THE STRATEGIES I, THE SECOND BULLET CONTINUOUSLY IMPROVED PROCESSES AND POLICIES TO INCLUDE THE VOICE OF THE CUSTOMER AND ENSURE THEY ARE EASILY ACCESSIBLE.
SO I, SO NORMALLY WHEN YOU SAY ACCESSIBLE, IS OUR GOVERNMENT EASY TO BE ACCESSIBLE? WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT
[00:15:01]
PEOPLE WANT ACCESS EASIER, MAY NOT BE THE WAY YOU SAY IT TO ENSURE THEY CAN ACCESS EASILY OR SOMETHING.YOU KNOW, YOU, YOU, ENGLISH LANGUAGE IS MY SECOND LANGUAGE, BUT I EVEN, I DON'T WRITE, BUT I ALWAYS AUDIT IT, EDIT IT.
SO I THINK AND ENSURE THEY, IT IS EASILY TO BE ACCESSIBLE OR SOMETHING THAT NEED TO BE CHANGED, OTHERWISE PEOPLE WILL GET CONFUSED.
THAT WAS THE STRATEGY TO MAKE ENSURE THAT ADDISON, EVERYTHING WE DO IS TO MAKE ADDISON EASY TO DO BUSINESS WITH.
SO WHAT HE'S SAYING IS LIKE, THE WORD THEY IS NOT RIGHT, IS NOT CALLED OUT.
WHAT IS THAT? LIKE A DANGLING MODIFIER OR SOMETHING? WELL, IT GOES BACK TO THE CUSTOMER RATHER THAN WHERE YOU WANT IT TO GO, WHICH IS POLICIES AND P PROCEDURES.
SO YOU'RE TALK THEY IS POLICIES AND PROCEDURES.
SO CONTINUOUSLY IMPROVE PROCESSES AND POLICIES TO INCLUDE THE VOICE OF THE CUSTOMER AND TO ENSURE, UH, POLICIES ARE EASILY, THE POLICIES WELL ARE EASILY ACCESSIBLE.
THE POLICIES ARE EASILY ACCESSIBLE, BUT IT'S ALSO REFERRING TO PROCESSES.
SO I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU PUT THAT THERE.
I THINK THEY WILL BE BETTER AND, AND ENSURE THE POLICIES ARE EASILY ACCESSIBLE.
ANY QUESTION WITH THAT? SO BASICALLY WHAT HE IS SAYING IS REMOVE THE AMBIGUITY, WHICH LEADS THE READER TO THINK THAT POSSIBLY THEY REFER TO THE VOICE OF THE, I WAS JUST TRYING TO THINK OF IT.
HANG ELSE ON THE STRATEGIES, UH, CAN PROVE WE'LL COME UP FOR THEM.
SO THEN WE, WE TOOK THE SEVEN EXISTING PILLARS.
AND THEN WE TOOK THE EXISTING MILESTONES AND THEN ALSO, UH, NOT ON THIS SLIDE BECAUSE THEY HAD JUST HAPPENED TO ALL FALL ON THE SECOND SLIDE.
WE TOOK THE, UH, THE STRATEGIES THAT WERE DEVELOPED AND ADDED THOSE AS AS MILESTONES.
THE ONLY, THE ONLY ONE THAT THAT POPPED OFF THE PAGE TO ME WAS, UH, ON THE OPTIMIZATION OF THE ADDISON BRAND.
UM, ALL WE HAVE WRITTEN IS DEFINE AND PROMOTE ADDISON IDENTITY.
AND I FEEL LIKE IF WE'RE STILL DEFINING, UH, THE ADDISON IDENTITY, WE'RE STUCK.
AND THAT DOESN'T REFLECT WHERE WE ARE.
IT'S, I, WE'VE BEEN OPTIMIZING THE BRAND.
UM, AND I DON'T, I DON'T REALLY UNDERSTAND, DEFINE, UH, ON OPTIMIZE THE ADDISON BRAND.
DEFINE AND PROMOTE ADDISON IDENTITY.
I MEAN, IT'S JUST THIS ONE THING THAT'S SITTING THERE.
IT'S THIS HUGE MONUMENTAL THING THAT'S TRUE.
YOU, YOU ARE SORRY, YOU REFIN IT, NOT DEFINE IT.
SO WE'RE, WE'RE, WE'RE, WE'RE, WE'RE, WE'RE IN A CONTINUOUS PROCESS OF MAY FINE SOMETHING BUT NOT, WE'RE NOT CONTINUOUSLY TRYING TO DEFINE OUR IDENTITY.
THAT MAKES IT SOUND LIKE WE'RE MAY FINE, WE'RE NOT FAR LAW.
MAYBE JUST SEND YOU ONE, ONE LETTER ARE INSTEAD OF D EITHER THAT OR, YOU KNOW, CONTINUE TO PROMOTE ADDISON'S IDENTITY OR, YOU KNOW, THAT'S FINE.
JUST CONTINUE TO ENHANCE, CONTINUE TO ENHANCE AND PROMOTE ADDISON'S IDENTITY.
ANY OTHER QUESTION? YEAH, I HAVE ONE.
AND THAT'S ON THE, UM, INNOVATIVE AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND BUSINESS.
AND THAT IS ATTRACTING AND RETAINING INNOVATORS IN TARGET INDUSTRIES WITH THE CHANGES THAT ARE GOING ON.
UM, I THINK PROBABLY JUST REMOVING THAT ONE MAKES SENSE BECAUSE I THINK THE OTHERS NUMBER TWO KIND OF ADDRESSES THAT AS WELL.
IT'S D IT'S D IT'S DUPLICATIVE.
IT IS, IS THAT A WORD? YEAH, THAT'S A GOOD, DON'T USE THAT WORD.
YOU, YOU WANNA SAY IT AGAIN? YOU, YOU IT WAS IN INNOVATE.
[00:20:01]
FIRST ONE AND NUMBER TWO COVERS NUMBER ONE.OH, WELL YOU TALK ABOUT 1, 2, 3.
ELIMINATE NUMBER ONE, ELIMINATE, ELIMINATE, ELIMINATE NUMBER ONE, 10 INNOVATION INNOVATORS IN TARGET INDUSTRY.
SO WE STILL HAVE INITIATIVES UNDER THAT.
SO WHAT YOU CAN DO IS JUST ELIMINATE THAT ONE BECAUSE THERE'S A, UH, UH, REDUNDANCE WITH NUMBER ONE, NUMBER TWO, THEN NUMBER TWO TO NUMBER ONE.
SO WHAT DO THOSE INITIATIVES FALL TO? WHAT DO YOU MEAN? WELL, I'M LOOKING AT THE, THE NEXT ONE, STRATEGIC.
WE WOULD JUST STRATEGIES CONSOLIDATE 'EM WITH YEAH.
THE INITIATIVES YOU CONSOLIDATE 'EM WITH.
SO ANY MORE RECOMMENDATION? NO, I JUST, THE ONLY THE, I MEAN THE ONLY THING ON NUMBER THREE WHERE WE SAY LEVERAGE, WE USE THE WORD LEVERAGE AGAIN, AIRPORT ASSETS.
AND IT'S REALLY ABOUT, ABOUT INTEGRATING AIRPORT ASSETS, UM, INTO THE BUSINESS COMMUNITY AND GROWTH AND EXPANSION.
I'M USING THE WORD LEVERAGE TWICE.
IN INTEGRATE THE AIRPORT ASSETS WITH THE BUSINESS GROWTH AND EXPANSION.
LAURIE, IS IT? YEAH, I THINK SO.
WHEN THAT WAS INITIALLY PUT IN THERE, IF YOU RECALL THE CONVERSATION, IT WAS THAT WE FELT THE COUNCIL AT THE TIME FELT THAT UNDER WAS UNDER LEVERAGE.
UNDER LEVERAGE MEANS THAT TAKE ADVANTAGE OF WHAT YOU HAVE.
I DON'T WANNA GET TOO FAR THE WEEDS THERE.
SO BILL, YOU, YOU UNDERSTAND, JUST TAKE OUT OF THE NUMBER ONE CHANGE NUMBER TWO TO NUMBER ONE? NUMBER THREE TO NUMBER TWO.
AND THEN WE'LL ALSO, UM, THE, THE WORDS THAT WE CORRECTED IN THE STRATEGIES WILL BE REFLECTED THE CHANGES IN EDIT.
SO WE'LL HAVE THESE, UH, ON THE 25TH FOR APPROVAL.
OBVIOUSLY WE'LL UTILIZE THE FRAMEWORK FOR OUR BUDGET DISCUSSIONS.
AND THEN FOR THE NEW COUNCIL IN EARLY SUMMER, WE'RE GONNA BRING THIS BACK UP AS A WORK SESSION JUST TO KIND OF TOUCH BASE WITH THE NEW COUNCIL.
AND THEN NEXT JANUARY WE'RE ALL, START AGAIN.
KNOW THAT WAS A BIG PROJECT TO KIND.
[2. Present and Discuss the Addison Police Department's 2022 Annual Report.]
NUMBER TWO, PRESENT.DISCUSS POLICE DEPARTMENT 2022.
MAYOR COUNCIL, UH, PAUL SPENCER, CHIEF POLICE, BEFORE I GET STARTED, UH, I DO HAVE A BRIEF PRESENTATION ON THE ANNUAL REPORT.
I KNOW YOU HAVE THE FULL DOCUMENT IN YOUR, IN YOUR PACKET SO WE CAN TALK ABOUT ANYTHING YOU WISH TO ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT, BUT I WANTED TO KEEP IT BRIEF.
THERE'S REALLY ALL THAT THE COMMUNITY HAS ASKED HIM HAS BEEN ASKING US FOR HIS CRIME STATUS, CRIME STATUS, CRIME STATS.
SO WE'RE GONNA, WE'RE GONNA JUMP RIGHT TO THAT.
I WILL SAY THE, UH, ANNUAL REPORT IS MUCH MORE COLORFUL NOW.
I KNOW WE, WE, WE, WE'RE NOT GRAPHICAL DESIGNERS, BUT WE, WE'LL TRY TO DO BETTER AND WE'LL CONTINUE.
SO, BUT I DO WANNA THANK, UH, CAPTAIN MIKE VINCENT, OUR CRIME ANALYST CARE FUENTES, UH, JESSICA MORGAN, OUR RECORD SUPERVISOR WHO'S NOT HERE TONIGHT.
AND ALSO, UH, VALE GARCIA FROM THE CITY MAYOR'S OFFICE FOR HER INPUT AND HELP.
I'M JUST, UH, PRETTY FACE DELIVERING THE MESSAGE.
SO WE GOT A VENO WIDE, THAT'S RIGHT.
UM, AGAIN, FROM OUR PATROL DIVISION.
UH, WHILE THE OFFICERS SPEND MAJORITY OF THEIR TIME ANSWERING CALLS FOR SERVICE, WE ALSO EXPECT, UH, THEM TO BE PROACTIVE IN PATROLLING THEIR DISTRICTS, BOTH RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
UH, THEY DO BOTH, UH, VERY WELL.
THEY HAVE A, A GOOD HANDLE ON THE BALANCE THAT WE NEED TO NOT ONLY TAKE CARE OF WHAT WE NEED TO, BUT ALSO WHAT WE KNOW IS IMPORTANT TO COMMUNITY.
THE CONSTANT THEME THAT WE HAVE FOR THE RESIDENTS.
WE WANNA SEE MORE AND MORE AND MORE NEIGHBORHOODS AND WE, WE, WE DO THE BEST WE CAN WITH THAT BASED ON CALLS.
UM, AGAIN, FOR OUR SELF-INITIATE ACTIVITY, THOUGH, WE DO HAVE HIGH STANDARDS OFFICERS DO A LOT OF PROACTIVE TRAFFIC STOPS, INVESTIGATIVE STOPS, UH, SUSPICIOUS PEOPLE, VEHICLES.
WE HAVE A LOT OF TRAFFIC IN AND OUT OF ADDISON, OBVIOUSLY FOR OUR NIGHTLIFE COMMERCIAL BUSINESS, UH, SECTOR.
AND THAT GENERATES A VERY, VERY HIGH LOAD ON OUR, OUR, UH, PATROL DIVISION.
WE WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT A COUPLE THINGS.
WE DID ARREST SIX SETS OF CATALYTIC CONVERTER THIEVES, UH, IN 2022, WHICH IS A BIG DEAL.
THOSE ARE, THAT'S A VERY HARD THING TO TRY TO CATCH.
UH, PATROL DID A GREAT JOB IN ADDITION TO C I D.
UM, AND AGAIN, THAT HELPED US DEVELOP THE ORDINANCE THAT COUNCIL ULTIMATELY PASSED IN MARCH 23.
LITTLE BIT ON THE CALLS FOR SERVICE SIDE.
IT SHOWS YOU WHAT THE PREDOMINANT CALLS FOR SERVICE TYPICALLY
[00:25:01]
ARE FOR PATROL.AGAIN, MAJORITY OF IT IS, UH, ALARM CALLS, SUSPICIOUS, UH, ACTIVITY AND DISTURBANCES IN THE MINOR.
WE MINOR AND MAJOR DISTURBANCE.
A MINOR DISTURBANCE COULD BE JUST A NOISE COMPLAINT.
MAJOR DISTURBANCE IS USUALLY A, A FIGHT OR SOME SORT OF OTHER ISSUE THAT, UH, HAS A LITTLE MORE SEVERITY TO IT.
AGAIN, MAJORITY OF THIS STUFF IS WE CALL COMMUNITY CARETAKING.
UH, THE OTHER, JUST AS A REMINDER, UH, INCLUDES 9 1 1 HANGUPS.
STEPH REPORTS, PARKING VIOLATIONS, TRAFFIC COMPLAINTS, AND A LOT OF OTHER SMALL LITTLE THINGS THAT REALLY DON'T FIT INTO THE BIG BUCKETS.
ON THE CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION SIDE, AGAIN, THERE'S A DIRECT CORRELATION BETWEEN OUR C I D CRIMINAL INVESTIGATIVE DIVISIONS.
LEVEL OF WORK WITH WHAT PATROL DOES FROM A LIFE CYCLE OF A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.
IT STARTS IN PATROL WITH THAT REPORT I CALL FOR SERVICE.
ONCE THE REPORT IS IS GENERATED BY, BY AN APPROVED, BY PATROL SUPERVISORS, THEN IT GOES TO OUR INVESTIGATORS TO DO A FOLLOW UP AND CASE REPORT.
HOPEFULLY IDENTIFY SUSPECTS IF THERE, IF THERE WEREN'T ANY THAT WERE ARRESTED AT THE TIME.
AND, UH, GET GOOD CASES DOWN IN DALLAS COUNTY FOR PROSECUTION.
UM, OUR C I D DETECTIVES HANDLE ABOUT FIVE TO 50 NEW CASES A WEEK.
THAT IS NOT THE ONLY CASELOAD THEY CARRY OVER INTO 20, 30, 40, 60 CASES, SOMETIMES ON ANNUAL BASIS.
THEY, THEY USUALLY GET A, THERE'S AN INFLUX OF CASES EVERY MORNING.
UH, WHEN, WHEN, WHEN THE PATROL GETS DONE.
UM, IT, IT RUNS THE MYRIAD OF SEVERITY, RIGHT? ALL THE WAY FROM HOMICIDES ON A WORST CASE TO JUST, YOU KNOW, SMALL TIME THEFTS.
UH, BUT WE DO AUGMENT THE, OUR DETECTIVES WITH SPECIAL ASSIGNMENTS FROM OTHER PERSONNEL WITHIN THE DEPARTMENT.
UH, MAINLY FROM PATROL, UH, AND ALSO FROM OUR CIVILIANS, LIKE OUR CRIME ANALYST WHO, WHO WILL, WHO WILL KICK IN TO HELP.
UM, ONE OF THE BIG HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS, FROM 2022, UH, OUR C I D DISCOVERED AND PROSECUTED A, A FUEL THEFT RING THAT WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR A HIGH, HIGH AMOUNT OF ACTIVITY IN DALLAS FORT WORTH AREA.
SO IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT ADDISON, EVEN THOUGH WE'RE, YOU KNOW, WE WE'RE THE MOST IMPORTANT CUZ IT'S US.
BUT WE DO WORK REGIONALLY WITH OUR PARTNERS, UH, TO HELP SOLVE CRIME AT A REGIONAL LEVEL WITHIN NORTH TEXAS.
ULTIMATELY HAD NINE FELONY NEW WARRANTS FOR THIS GROUP.
AND THAT WAS A, WAS A BIG DEAL.
UH, SOME STATS ON THE CRIMINAL INVESTIGATIVE SIDE, YOU CAN SEE MOST OF OUR, OUR, OUR OFFENSES REGARDING AROUND PROPERTY.
AGAIN, YOU'LL SEE IN THE CRIME STATS AND A COUPLE MORE SLIDES, THAT'S WHERE OUR INCREASES WERE THIS YEAR.
PROPERTY THEFT THAT ADDISON'S ALWAYS HAD A, A HIGH PROPERTY THEFT, UH, A CASELOAD OR REPORTED CASELOAD BECAUSE WE HAVE A LOT OF NICE STUFF.
AND UNFORTUNATELY PEOPLE SOMETIMES TAKE THE NICE STUFF MAINLY FROM OUR PATRONS THAT VISIT THE RESTAURANTS BARS CAUSE THEY LEAVE THINGS IN OUR CAR.
UM, WE HAVE A HIGH AMOUNT OF THEFT INSIDE THE, SOME OF THE HIGHRISE APARTMENT, OR EXCUSE ME, HIGHRISE BUSINESSES ON THE TOLL, UM, WHERE PEOPLE LEAK, YOU KNOW, HAVE THINGS STOLEN FROM THEIR WORKPLACE AND THAT KIND OF THING.
UM, AGAIN, CAPERS, CRIMES AGAINST PERSONS.
A MAJORITY OF OURS IS FAMILY VIOLENCE RELATED.
UH, AND WE'LL SEE MORE OF THAT IN THE STATS HERE IN THE NEXT COUPLE SLIDES.
UH, WE'VE SHOWN A SLIDE IN PREVIOUS ANNUAL REPORTS.
IT, IT SHOWS A HISTORICAL TREND LINE FROM ALL THE WAY BACK IN 1980.
AS A REMINDER, THE GREEN BAR IS OUR NI'S DATA THAT WE WENT TO PARTIALLY IN 2019.
FULLY IN 2020, WE CONVERTED IT BACK TO UCR, THE OLD UNIFORM CRIME REPORTING.
SO YOU, WE COULD SEE A LITTLE MORE APPLES TO APPLES COMPARISON FROM THE HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE.
UM, WE ARE IN THAT, YOU KNOW, WE TALK ABOUT, NOW, YOU'VE HEARD ME SAY IT BEFORE, IT USUALLY HAS A SEVEN TO NINE YEAR CYCLE OF HIGHS AND LOWS THAT'S DEMONSTRATED ON THIS, ON THIS SLIDE.
WE ARE IN THE HIGH, HIGH POINT OF THAT CYCLE.
UM, IT, IT LOOKS LIKE, YOU KNOW, WE'RE THE HIGHEST EVER.
WELL, THAT MAY BE THE CASE, BUT OUR POPULATION CHANGES BOTH FROM THE TOWN AND THE REGION ARE DRASTICALLY DIFFERENT FROM 1980 UNTIL NOW.
SO A LOT OF THIS IS THE CORRELATION, WHICH JUST POPULATION CHANGES WITHIN L ANDERSON, BUT NORTH TEXAS AS A WHOLE, AND TEXAS AS A WHOLE, HONESTLY.
AND SO THAT'S, THAT'S PART OF THE REASON FOR THE, FOR THE CHANGE, RESPECTING THIS TO COME DOWN IN THE NEXT COUPLE YEARS.
SO AGAIN, USUALLY YOU SEE IT'S A 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 YEAR, SAME AS THE LOW, AS THE HIGH, UH, AS DIRECTLY CORRELATED.
SO HOPEFULLY WITHIN THE NEXT COUPLE YEARS WE'LL START SEEING IT AB OKAY, SO OUR CRIME RATES, WHAT EVERYBODY WANTS TO KNOW, UM, THIS IS THE TOTAL CRIME RATE, UH, FOR 2022.
IT IS LISTED, UH, IN NATIONAL, OR EXCUSE ME, THE, THE YES NATIONAL INCIDENT.
UM, UH, THE NIS FORMAT, INCIDENT BASED REPORTING SYSTEM.
UH, YOU CAN SEE THE, THE GROUP B OFFENSES ARE THE SMALLER THINGS THAT, LIKE PUBLIC ORDER CRIMES LIKE DWIS, THAT KIND OF STUFF.
UH, PROB CRIMES AGAINST PERSONS WAS UP ABOUT FIVE AND HALF PERCENT.
AND WE CAN TALK ABOUT THAT A LITTLE BIT ON WHY, UH, PROPERTY CRIMES WERE OUR BIG INCREASE.
AND WE'LL TALK ABOUT WHY HERE IN JUST A SECOND.
AND OUR, OUR CRIMES AND SOCIETY ACTUALLY WENT DOWN, WHICH IS, IT'S A GOOD THING.
THAT'S THE PUBLIC INTOXICATIONS, THAT KIND OF THING.
SO CRIMES AGAINST PERSONS, UH, 2021 WAS A LITTLE BIT ROUGH ON, ON ON THE, THE HOMICIDE ROUTE.
THAT WAS ONE OF OUR HIGHEST YEARS.
WE DIDN'T SEE ANY PATTERNS THERE.
UM, BUT RAPES AND ROBBERIES ARE DOWN TO OVER 40%, WHICH IS REALLY,
[00:30:01]
REALLY GOOD.AND OVERALL WE HAD A FIVE AND A HALF PERCENT INCREASE.
UH, THERE ARE FEW FEWER FELONY CRIMES AGAINST PERSONS REPORTED.
MOST OF THESE CATEGORIES ARE ASSAULT AND MOST OF THOSE WERE SIMPLE ASSAULT, WHICH IS EVEN DOWN IN THE CLASS C RANGE, WHERE A MUNICIPAL COURT WOULD TAKE OVER.
UM, SO AGAIN, MOST OF THE CASES YOU'LL SEE FROM THE CLEARANCE RATE ON IN THE ANNUAL REPORT, YOU SEE A VERY HIGH, OVER 76% I BELIEVE, CLEARANCE RATES CUZ IT'S USUALLY KNOWN PERSONS.
SO IT'S, IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE CAN CLEAR QUICKLY.
AGAIN, OUR, OUR LARGEST CRIME RATE INCREASE THIS YEAR WAS FOR PROPERTY CRIME.
MAJORITY OF THOSE ARE OPTIMISTIC, LOW CIRCUMSTANCE, UH, LOW RISK CIRCUMSTANCES SUCH AS PEOPLE LEAVING THINGS IN THEIR CARS OR AT WORK.
UH, WE HAD A BIG INCREASE IN CADILLAC CONVERTER THEFTS, WE'LL TALK ABOUT THAT IN A SECOND.
UM, BUT THEY'VE, WE'VE ARRESTED A LOT OF PEOPLE.
SOME, UH, AGENCIES, UH, REPORTED THAT REPEATER VENDORS.
AND SO THE GOOD INTELLIGENCE, AGAIN, WITH, WITH WITH THE CRIME ANALYST IN C I D WORKING WITH OUR PARTNER CITIES AROUND NORTH TEXAS.
WE WORK, UH, UNIQUELY WITH A LOT OF OUR SISTERS, UH, CITIES TO HELP, HELP, HELP SOLVE CRIME.
AND THAT'S, THAT'S, THAT'S IMPORTANT.
SO AGAIN, UH, UH, OVERALL WE HAD A LITTLE OVER 8% INCREASE.
WE FEEL LIKE THAT'S APPROPRIATE.
AGAIN, IT'S ONE OF THOSE, ONE OF THOSE THINGS FROM INCREASE.
WE WANNA KNOW WHY, UH, THE BIG ISSUE THIS YEAR CAUSING THAT WAS PROPERTY CRIME.
AND A BIG ISSUE WITH THAT WAS A CATHOLIC CONVERT THEFTS.
I THINK IT'S 128% INCREASE IN CATHOLIC CONVERT THEFTS.
UM, WE'RE ADDRESSING IT AS BEST WE CAN FROM AN ENFORCEMENT STANDPOINT.
AND THEN WITH THE NEW CITY ORDINANCES, HOPEFULLY THAT'LL HELP US DO EVEN MORE OF THAT.
SO HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS IF YOU HAVE ANY, ABOUT ANY PARTICULAR STATS INSIDE THE REPORT OR ANY OTHER INFORMATION THAT WE DIDN'T COVER.
YOU KNOW, UH, I'VE NOTICED THOSE SEVERE CRIME AGAINST PERSONS SUCH AS MOTHER REDUCED AND THEN, UH, RAPE REDUCED SIGNIFICANTLY ROBBERY REDUCED.
SO, UH, THEN YOU TALK ABOUT CRIME AGAINST PROPERTIES.
YOU KNOW, THE PETTY CRIMES INCREASE QUITE A BIG MARGIN LIKE VEHICLE THEFT AND THE ENCY, UH, THEFT.
BUT, UH, FOR BURGLARY, REDUCE QUITE A BIT FOR FRAUD, REDUCE QUITE A BIT.
SO IF JUST BASED ON WATCHING THIS, READING THIS, THE TOTAL RATE IS A LITTLE HIGHER, BUT HOWEVER, THE SEVERE CRIMES ARE MUCH REDUCED.
SO, SO YOU HAVE TO VIEW THIS SEPARATELY INSTEAD OF JUST SAY, OH, THE OVER OVER CRIME RATE IS A LITTLE HIGHER, BUT THE REAL SEVERE CRIMES YEAH.
SO IT'S THE, I THINK THAT'S BECAUSE, UH, OUR GOVERNMENT POLICY HAS TO LOT TO DO WITH THE PETTY CRIMES QUI BECAUSE DOES COUNTY DA DON'T WANNA PURSUE, PROSECUTE THOSE CRIMES UNDER $750.
SO I DON'T THINK IT IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO AND SPEAK OUT IN PUBLIC.
IN PUBLIC, JUST LIKE IN CALIFORNIA UNDER $950, THEY DON'T WANT TO PURSUE, YOU KNOW, YOU, YOU BASICALLY ENCOURAGE THOSE PEOPLE TO COMMIT THE SMALLER CRIMES.
YOU KNOW, IT'S JUST, IT'S JUST WRONG GOVERNMENT POLICY.
UH, WELL FOR, I WAS GONNA, UH, ALSO MAKE A COMMENT.
CONGRATULATIONS ON THE, THOSE NINE FELONY WARRANTS.
THAT'S A PRETTY GOOD WIN FOR THE FUEL THEFT.
UM, YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT THE DETECTIVES HANDLING FIVE TO 15 CASES A WEEK AND ON SOMETHING LIKE THIS, I MEAN, ARE THOSE CASES ASSIGNED, UH, BY YOU? AND, AND KIND OF A TWO-PRONGED THING IS, UM, THOSE CASES AREN'T ALWAYS, THOSE ARE THINGS THAT COME THROUGH ADDISON.
THEY'RE NOT NECESSARILY CORRELATED, UH, NEIGHBORHOOD.
IT MIGHT BE COMMERCIAL, WHICH IT IS IN MOST CASES.
SO ANY, ANY OFFENSE THAT OCCURS IN ADDISON, WHETHER IT'S A RESIDENTIAL COMMERCIAL, OKAY, IT'S GONNA, IF IT GENERATES A CALL THAT GENERATES A REPORT.
BUT EVEN, EVEN IF IT'S AN INFORMATION REPORT, OKAY, IT'S GONNA COME THROUGH, THERE'S A WORKFLOW PROCESS AND IF IT'S A, IF IT'S A, A REPORTED CRIME OR AN ARREST AFTER AN ON VIEW.
SO FOR EXAMPLE, AN OFFICER SEES, UH, SOMEBODY BREAKS INTO A CAR, MAKES AN ARREST, TAKES HIM TO JAIL, WE SELF FILE A CASE SELF FILE REPORT.
SO ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS IN ABSENT, WHETHER IT'S A VISITOR, A RESIDENT, COMMERCIAL, RESIDENTIAL, IT DOESN'T MATTER.
IT'S GONNA BE, THE WORKFLOW IS ALL THE SAME.
AND, AND WE'RE GONNA WALK THAT THROUGH A PROCESS.
UH, TO YOUR FIRST POINT ABOUT ASSIGNING THE CASES, I DON'T PERSONALLY, AND THAT'S, THAT'S A GOOD THING CAUSE THAT'S A LOT
[00:35:01]
OF WORK.BUT OUR, OUR C I D SUPERVISORS, SO WE HAVE A LIEUTENANT AND TWO SERGEANTS IN, IN OUR CRIMINAL INVESTIGATIVE SECTION.
AND THEY ASSIGN THOSE BASED ON HOW THEY HAVE, HOW THEY, UH, MANAGE THAT TEAM.
THERE'S OFFICERS THAT GET THE, THE CRIMES AGAINST PERSONS.
THERE'S FINANCIAL OFFICERS, THERE'S CRIMES AGAINST FAMILY OFFICERS, UH, INVESTIGATORS.
AND IT'S C ID IS A, YOU KNOW, THAT'S WHY WE'RE CONTINUALLY LOOKING AT IT MORE A MANPOWER STANDPOINT TO FIND OUT DO THEY HAVE ENOUGH, IF WE INCREASE PATROL, WE'RE PROBABLY GONNA HAVE TO DO AT SOME POINT, THERE'S A DIRECT CORRELATION WITH THE AMOUNT OF WORK THAT'S GONNA COME OUT OF PATROL.
AND SO WE'RE GONNA TO ALSO LOOK AT NOT ONLY C I D BUT SUPPORT STAFF.
SO IT'S, IT'S A CONSTANT BALANCE WITH THAT WORKLOAD.
BUT THEY DO A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF WORK.
THEY CARRY A LOT OF CASES THAT IS NORMAL FOR MOST POLICE DEPARTMENTS.
BUT WE HAVE A VERY GOOD CLEARANCE RATE AS OUR IRES DATA SHOWS.
UM, THERE'S A LOT OF HIGH WORK PRODUCT THAT COMES OUT OF C I D EVEN THOUGH WE MAY BE SHORTHANDED FROM TIME TO TIME.
AND IT STARTS WITH GOOD GOODWINS WORK ON THE STREET.
IT'S A TEAM EFFORT, RIGHT? GOOD PATROL WORK, GOOD CID WORK AND EVERYBODY, UH, BETTER MY SUCCESS.
SO I'M SEEING SOME, UM, INCREASES COMING OUT OF THE CITY OF DALLAS AND, UH, VIOLENT CRIME AND SOME DIFFERENT MEDIA, DIFFERENT, YOU KNOW, ARTICLES AND THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN PUBLISHED JUST I THINK EVEN AS RECENTLY AS TODAY ABOUT, YOU KNOW, LOSS OF POLICE STAFF AND INCREASE IN CRIME.
AND DO YOU ANTICIPATE THAT SOME OF THAT SPILLS OVER INTO ADDISON OR, OH, WE'RE ALWAYS FIGHTING THAT FOR REGIONAL PERSPECTIVE.
WE NEED A STRONG DALLAS POLICE DEPARTMENT CUZ IT HELPS STABILIZE THE WHOLE REGION CUZ THEY'RE THE BIGGEST.
UM, I WILL TELL YOU, I SAW THE REPORT THAT THEY GAVE, I THINK CHIEF GARCIA WAS, WAS TALKING TO THEIR COUNSEL ABOUT THEY'VE SEEN A REDUCTION IN VIOLENT CRIME ACROSS THE BOARD EXCEPT FOR CERTAIN THINGS.
AND, AND IT'S NOT JUST MURDER, IT'S IT'S SHOOTINGS, RIGHT, WITH FIREARMS, OBVIOUSLY THAT'S, BUT THAT'S, THAT'S WHERE THEY'VE GOTTA FIGURE OUT IF THERE'S ANYTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT BECAUSE IT'S, AND WE'RE NOT SEEING THE SAME THING, THANK GOODNESS.
UM, OUR, WE'VE HAD, WE HAD A PERIOD OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS WHEN WE STARTED HAVING SOME, ALL OF THAT STUFF, WE HAD THE ABILITY TO JUMP ON IT VERY QUICKLY.
AND ALSO WORKING WITH OUR, OUR, OUR OTHER DIRECTORS AND DEPARTMENTS IN TOWN LIKE KEN SCHMIDT, UH, WHO HELPED US ADDRESS SOME ISSUES WITH SOME OF THESE BYOB B ESTABLISHMENTS.
WE'RE HAVING A LOT OF, YOU KNOW, HIGH CRIME IN, UH, AND THAT, AND THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE THAT WE HAVE IN ADDISON VERSUS A LARGER CITY.
WE WORK TOGETHER BETTER AS A TEAM.
AND IT'S NOT JUST LETTING THE POLICE DEPARTMENT TRY TO FIGURE IT OUT.
IT'S A TEAM EFFORT WITH ALL THE CITY SERVICES TO DO IT.
THAT'S WHAT MAKES US HOPEFULLY MORE SUCCESSFUL OVER THE YEARS.
SO WHERE DOES MAIL THEFT AND PACKAGE THAT FALL AND PROPERTY, WOULD IT BE? IS IT PROPERTY? IT IS AND, AND MALE THEFT, UH, IS TYPICALLY A, A FEDERAL OFFENSE, RIGHT? UH, WITH POSTAL INSPECTORS, WE WORK WITH THEM.
SO SOMETIMES IF IT'S A MINOR MALE THEFT, IT ENDS UP IN A, UH, LET'S SAY SOME CHECKS WERE STOLEN OR A, OR A CREDIT CARD APPLICATION AND IT TURNS INTO SOMETHING ELSE.
WE, WE ONLY USUALLY WORK ALL THAT.
IF IT'S A LARGE SCALE THING WHERE WE, UM, A RISK MAYBE SOMEBODY THAT WE THINK IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MANY, MANY OFFENSES, THEN WE'RE GONNA BRING THE FEDERAL PARTNERS IN TO LET THEM TAKE OVER.
CAUSE THEY HAVE SOME, SOME TOOLS AND TOOLBOX TO ADDRESS THAT.
WE, WE WORK SOME OF IT, SOMETIMES WE GIVE IT TO THEM.
THEY DON'T LIKE THE SMALL LITTLE OLD LEVEL STUFF.
CAUSE FROM THE FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT, THEY HAVE TO OFFER A MUCH DIFFERENT ENVIRONMENT.
SO IT'S EASIER FOR US TO TAKE SOME OF THOSE I YOU'RE REFERRING TO LIKE, UH, PORCH PIRATES AND AMAZON PACKAGE THEFT AND SUCH.
YOU KNOW, LOOKING AT YOUR LARCENY, IF THAT'S WHERE IT FALLS INTO, THEN I WONDER IF THAT'S, YOU KNOW, BEING, BECAUSE THAT'S A, YOU KNOW, 37% LOT OF AMAZON STUFF.
I DON'T REMEMBER SEEING THAT IN A LOT OF REPORTS.
WE HAVE IT EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE.
IT'S NOT AS BAD, BAD AS SOME PLACES.
I WOULD LIKE TO ATTRIBUTE THAT TO A GOOD POLICE PATROL PRESENCE, YOU KNOW, THANK CREDIT FOR IT.
BUT IT'S ALSO, WE'VE GOT A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT, THAT ARE PROBABLY STAYING VIGILANT AND THEY REPORT STUFF WHEN THEY SEE IT.
CHIEF, I APPRECIATE THE REPORT.
UM, I, THIS WOULD PROBABLY BE A GOOD TIME FOR YOU TO REMIND THE AUDIENCE AND, AND OF COURSE WOULD BE, UH, BAD GUYS ABOUT THE EXISTENCE OF THE LPR SYSTEM AND, AND PERHAPS GIVE US A LITTLE UPDATE ON ITS EFFECTIVENESS SO FAR AND, AND HOW FAR IT'S COME ALONG.
SO THE, THE LAST PLATE RECOGNITION PROGRAM, WHICH STARTED 2019, UH, CONTINUES TODAY.
AGAIN, PHASE TWO, EXPANDED IT AND TO THE COMMERCIAL SECTORS.
AND JUST AS A REMINDER, WE, YOU KNOW, THE FIRST PHASE WAS IN THE RESIDENTIAL AREAS TO HELP US WITH A FORCE MULTIPLIER TO INCREASE THE PERCEPTIONS OF SAFETY AND THE COMMUNITY.
HOPEFULLY, UH, HOPEFULLY IT'S DONE THAT I, I THINK, I THINK IT HAS.
UM, THE SECOND PART REALLY WAS TARGETING WHERE WE HAD THE MOST ISSUES, WHICH WAS THE COMMERCIAL SECTOR.
AND WE LOOKED AT HEAT MAPPING AND THEN TRIANGULATED, LPR AROUND THOSE HEAT MAPS, UH, HOT POINTS.
AND SO PUTTING RESOURCES ON THE ACTUAL AREAS OF ACTIVITY.
WE'RE A SMALL, I MEAN, WE'RE, WE'RE FOUR AND A HALF SQUARE MILES, YOU KNOW, THREE TAKE THREE AND A HALF TAKE AWAY AIRPORTS.
SO WE KNOW WHERE OUR ISSUES ARE.
IT'S UP AND DOWN BELTLINE IN THE TOLLWAY.
UM, BUT AGAIN, WE USE L P R ON A DAILY BASIS, NOT ONLY FROM THE, FROM THE OFFICERS GETTING ALERTED
[00:40:01]
TO, UH, CARS DRIVING THROUGH TOWN WHERE IT'S COM NOW IT'S COMMERCIAL AND RESIDENTIAL AREAS.AS A REMINDER, IF, IF THERE'S, UH, TEXAS CRIMINAL INFORMATION CENTERS ALERTS, LIKE STOLEN VEHICLES WANTED PERSONS, IT'S ATTACHED TO THAT LICENSE PLATE, THE OFFICERS ARE GONNA GET ALERTED IN THE FIELD IN REAL TIME WITHIN 90 SECONDS TYPICALLY.
AND IT'S GONNA POP UP THAT THAT CAR JUST WENT THROUGH THAT INTERSECTION.
AND THEN WE HAVE THE CHOICE TO GO, YOU KNOW, INVESTIGATE IT ON THE OTHER SIDE.
AND REALLY, REALLY THE MORE ROBUST SIDE.
AND HONESTLY, I WOULD SAY THE MORE SUCCESSFUL SIDE IS WHAT C I D AND WHAT CRIME OUR CRIME ANALYST DOES EVERY DAY, WHICH USES A TRILLION POINTS OF DATA WITHIN THE COMMERCIAL SIDE.
UH, AND THEN ALL OF OUR, OUR CAMERAS AND OUR PARTNER CAMERAS OR CITIES AROUND TEXAS TO LOOK AT, AT PEOPLE THAT WE ARE TRYING TO EITHER IDENTIFY OR HAVE IDENTIFIED AND TRY TO TRACK 'EM.
WE CAN TRACK CARS AND, AND ALL OVER DALLAS, ALL OVER TEXAS.
AND IT'S, IT'S AMAZING, UH, WHAT WE CAN DO WITH IT.
AND IT'S, IT'S BEEN, IT'S BEEN A GAME CHANGER FOR US, RIGHT? AND WE, WE'VE GOT ONE OF MORE ROBUST FOR OUR SIZE.
WE HAVE ONE OF MORE, MORE ROBUST LPR PROGRAMS. AND SO IT'S, IT, IT PAYS BENEFITS DAILY.
IT'S PROBABLY ONE OF THE BEST THINGS, HONESTLY.
I, WE'VE, I I'VE, I'VE BEEN INVOLVED IN IT.
SO LAW ENFORCEMENT PROFESSIONAL 28 YEARS IS, IT'S THAT SUCCESSFUL.
THANK YOU FOR GIVING US THAT UPDATE.
I JUST SAW ONE THING ON THE C I D SLIDE ABOUT THE FLAME THROWER.
THERE'S GOTTA BE A GOOD STORY THERE.
SEE WHY I CATCH THAT
SO DID Y'ALL KEEP IT
BUT ANYWAY, I DON'T, I DON'T THINK ONE OF THE OTHER THINGS THAT KIND OF LEFT OFF THE PAGE TO ME WAS THAT THERE THERE WERE ZERO, UH, REPORTS OF TRAFFICKING.
LUCKILY, LUCKILY THAT'S, I WAS KIND OF SURPRISED.
I DON'T KNOW WHY WITHOUT, YEAH, HUMAN TRAFFICKING THING IS A BIG ISSUE.
NATIONALLY IS A BIG ISSUE REGIONALLY, WE TYPICALLY DON'T SEE A LOT OF IT, WHICH IS GOOD, AT LEAST FOR ADDISON.
I MEAN, IT'S WITH ALL THE HOTELS, I'M JUST SURPRISED THAT, THAT WE DON'T SEE MORE.
AND AGAIN, WE MAY, WHICH IS GOOD.
I DON'T WANNA SEE ANY, BUT YEAH, WE'VE HAD A COUPLE INSTANCES OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS, BUT IT'S NOT, IT'S NOT A NORMAL.
ANY MORE QUESTION? NO, NO, NO.
[3. Present and Discuss Mayor and City Council Compensation.]
IS THE MOST IMPORTANT ITEM.DISCUSS MAYOR AND THE CITY COUNCIL COMPENSATION.
THE MAYOR ACTUALLY ASKED FOR THIS, FOR THIS ITEM COUNCIL TO CONSIDER.
SO STEVEN DOES A VERY SHORT PRESENTATION HERE.
YOU KNOW, I, I JUST WON'T MENTION THIS.
UH, LAST TIME WE HAD THIS INVOICE BACK TO WHEN MAYOR SCHOLAR WHEELER WAS, UH, MAYOR BACK TO DURING HIS LAST MEETING LAST YEAR, LAST MEETING HE DID 2005, 2005, HE EXIT AS MAYOR.
WE HAVEN'T GIVE ALL THE COUNCIL AND MAYOR RAISE.
SO I WAS SUGGESTING, UH, INSTEAD OF, UH, $200 A MONTH FOR, UH, CITY COUNCIL, $400 FOR MAYOR.
SO WE'RE GOING TO DOUBLE IT AND A HUNDRED PERCENT INCREASE, WHICH IS RERUN, WHICH IS HUNDRED DOLLARS FOR CITY COUNCIL AND $800 FOR THE MAYOR EVERY MONTH.
SO THAT'S JUST MY RECOMMENDATION.
IT'S UP TO YOU TO DECIDE ALSO, UH, ONCE WE MADE THIS DECISION, MAKE THIS DECISION, IT WON'T BE EXECUTED UNTIL THE AFTER ELECTION.
SO, WHICH MEANS IT DOESN'T APPLY TO ME, CATHERINE, AND WE HAVE NO SELFISHNESS.
YOU KNOW, IT'S, THE MONEY TODAY IS NOT EVEN NEARLY AS TWO 18 YEARS AGO.
I REALLY DIDN'T HAVE MUCH OF A PRESENTATION.
I THINK
SO, UM, BUT, BUT WHAT WE SHOWED THIS AS BEING LAST UPDATED, UH, UH, APRIL 9TH, 2002 ACTUALLY.
SO 2002, THAT'S WHAT THE CODE OF ORDINANCES SAID.
SO, SO THIS IS ALL THAT'S IN THE CODE OF ORDINANCES, UH, RELATED TO THIS.
SO AS YOU SAID, $200 FOR THE MAYOR PER BIWEEKLY, 100 FOR COUNCIL MEMBERS.
SO YOU'LL GET A HUNDRED PERCENT INCREASE, YOU KNOW.
[00:45:01]
I THINK AS, UH, UH, ONE OF THE, UH, YOU KNOW, SOMETHING THAT'S WORTH MENTIONING IS THAT WHEN CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS RUN FOR THEIR SEAT, THEY TRADITIONALLY RAISE, UH, FUNDS IF, OR EITHER THEY USE THEIR OWN FUNDING, UH, FROM, FROM THEIR OWN PERSONAL SAVINGS OR THEIR OWN EARNINGS, UH, OR THEY ASK THE COMMUNITY FOR FUNDING.AND SO I THINK IT'S FAIR TO KIND OF GET CLOSER TO THE AMOUNT OF MONEY THAT YOU HAVE TO RAISE BECAUSE IT'S AN INVESTMENT THAT WE ALL BELIEVE IS WORTHY AS COUNCIL MEMBERS.
UM, BUT I THINK IT WOULD BE, UH, I THINK IT WOULD BE HELPFUL.
UH, AND I ALSO THINK IT WOULD, YOU KNOW, YOU WOULD GET MORE COUNCIL PEOPLE THAT CAN RUN THAT ARE INTERESTED IN DOING THE JOB AND DOING THE WORK, UM, AND, AND DON'T HAVE THE MEANS TO DONATE, UH, THEIR TIME AND, AND THE MONEY TO GET ELECTED.
SO I, WE'RE STILL NOT, YOU KNOW, WE'RE STILL NOT THERE.
EVEN IF WE WERE TO, TO RAISE IT BY THE AMOUNT THAT THE MAYOR PROPOSES.
I KNOW FOR MYSELF, I RAISED OVER THE THREE TERMS. I RAN, I RAISED SOMEWHERE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF 18 TO $20,000.
SO, YOU KNOW, AND, AND I KNOW THE MAYOR RAISES A LOT MORE MONEY THAN THAT.
SO IT'S STILL, IT'S STILL AN INVESTMENT, BUT IT'D BE NICE TO KIND OF EVEN THE PLAYING FIELD SO THAT EVERYBODY THAT WANTS TO RUN FOR COUNCIL CAN AT LEAST BE REIMBURSED FOR THE, FOR THOSE EXPENSES.
THE OTHER THING IS OFTEN WE REPRESENT A CITY, DRIVE OUR OWN CARS, GO TO ATTEND ALL KINDS OF MEETINGS.
WE NEVER WANTED TO FILE ANYTHING TO CLAIM IT, YOU KNOW, SO IN OTHER WORDS, THIS MONEY IS BASICALLY USED FOR THAT PURPOSE, OR SOMETIME EVEN WE ATTEND THE MEETING, THEY DON'T PROVIDE FOOD, SO WE HAVE TO PAY FOR OURSELVES.
SO WE NEVER REALLY GO TO CLAM THAT.
AND I THINK IT'S FAIR, YOU KNOW, FOR YEAH, FOR THIS KIND OF QUE BECAUSE STILL IT'S LITTLE MONEY, YOU KNOW? YEAH.
SO, AND I ALSO THINK IT'S FAIR TO INTRODUCE, UH, THE, LIKE, PLANO COUNCIL MEMBERS, FOR EXAMPLE, GET A $1,500 A MONTH STIPEND, WHICH IS SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER.
AND THIS IS A SIGNIFICANTLY DIFFERENT, UM, YOU KNOW, PICTURE, YOU KNOW, EVERYTHING FROM BUDGET TO, YOU KNOW, PER CAPITA AND ALL THAT.
UH, BUT THEY'RE ALL, ALL ALSO, THERE'S, THERE ARE OUTLIER COMMUNITIES WHERE IT'S A HUNDRED PERCENT VOLUNTEER.
SO YOU HAVE EVERYTHING FROM, YOU GET NOTHING BUT A HANDSHAKE AND A THANK YOU TO, YOU KNOW, HIGHER AMOUNTS OF MONEY.
AND I THINK, UH, WE LIKE TO BE PRUDENT IN MADISON.
AND THIS IS WHAT THIS IS, I THINK I'D LIKE TO HEAR FROM GQ.
AND YOU HEAR THAT AT TML? YES.
I HEAR FROM, WE HAVE DISCUSSIONS AT TML, AND SO I ASK, YOU KNOW, QUESTIONS.
HOW DO YOU GUYS DO THINGS? WHAT, YOU KNOW.
UM, AND I WILL SAY THAT THE P PLANO COUNCIL MEMBERS, UM, UH, HAVE, DO A LOT MORE WORK.
THEIR, THEIR WORK IS MORE EXTENSIVE THAN, THAN WHAT WE DO, AS WOULD BE THE CASE WITH DALLAS, RIGHT? I, I, I PLAN ON SUPPORTING THIS FOR THIS FOR SIMILAR REASONS.
IT TAKES YOU ABOUT ONE, ABOUT, UM, THREE, THE WHOLE THREE TERMS TO PAY FOR THE FIRST
SO, YOU KNOW, AS I READ THE, UH, CONSTITUTION NOW SEVEN CHAPTER 27 AMENDMENTS, SO THE LAST AMENDMENT 27, AND IT WAS UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED JUST SO FAST SO SOON, BECAUSE THAT'S THE ONE THE CONGRESS HAS THE RIGHT TO VOTE FOR THEIR PAY RAISE
SO, YOU KNOW, THAT'S NO
STEVEN, HOW DOES THIS WORK IN THE BUDGET? UH, WELL, SO IF, UH, DIRECTION WAS GIVEN AND THEN WE BROUGHT THIS ORDINANCE BACK TO, TO BE APPROVED, THAT, UH, WE WOULD DO BEFORE NEXT YEAR'S BUDGET PROCESS, UH, WE'D INCORPORATE THAT INTO NEXT YEAR'S BUDGET.
IT MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE AN IMPACT ON THE CURRENT YEAR'S BUDGET.
I MEAN, IT WILL, BUT IT MAY NOT BE ENOUGH FOR US TO HAVE TO BRING BACK A BUDGET AMENDMENT.
UM, WE'LL LOOK AT THE, THE CITY COUNCIL'S BUDGET AND SEE IF WE CAN AFFORD TO PAY THESE PEOPLE EXTRA MONEY.
STARTING NEXT, WE HAVE TO BRING BACK NEXT.
IS THERE ANOTHER COMMENT? NO, I JUST, SO
[00:50:01]
MY UNDERSTANDING OF THE CHARTER, WE WOULD'VE TO, WE'LL BRING THIS BACK ON THE 25TH BECAUSE IT HAS BE THIS COUNCIL BACK.WE'LL BRING THAT ORDINANCE ON THE 20TH.
THANK YOU FOR CLARIFYING THAT.
SO WE JUST WAIT FOR ONE MINUTE BECAUSE RIGHT NOW IT IS, UH, 7 29
ALRIGHT, WE CAN TAKE FIVE MINUTES.
THEY, ALRIGHT, LET'S RESUME THE MEETING.

SO, UH, MAY 9TH TO NOT HAVE A COUNCIL MEETING.
UH, NORMALLY IT SAYS RULE SINCE MAY 6TH IS THE ELECTION DAY.
SO YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO HAVE THE FIRST CITY COUNCIL MEETING UNTIL YOU CANVAS THE VOTES.
SO I CHECK WITH THE CITY SECRETARY ORMAN
[00:55:01]
PARKER.THE LAST DAY TO CANVAS THE VOTES IS, UH, WEDNESDAY, MAY 17TH, SINCE SHE'D LIKE TO GIVE US EXTRA ONE OR TWO DAYS
SO, UH, WE ARE GOING TO CANVAS THOSE ON MAY 17TH.

ITEM SEVEN.SO MY QUESTION WAS, UH, ON ITEM NUMBER SEVEN WITH THE, UH, ROOF REPLACEMENT.
I KNOW, UM, SOMEONE HAD ASKED ABOUT, UM, WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF WE DELAYED DOING THE ROOF REPLACEMENT AND THE, THE ANSWERS WERE, UM, YOU KNOW, RISK LEAKAGE, THAT IT'S BEYOND, ITS ITS LIFE AND SO ON.
I WANTED TO FIND OUT, UH, WHERE THIS FITS IN THE ASSET MANAGEMENT PROGRAM THAT WE HAVE IMPLEMENTED.
IS IT LIKE A RED, YELLOW, OR GREEN OR, YES MA'AM.
UH, MAYOR COUNSEL, BRAD BOGAN WRIGHT FACILITIES MANAGER, UH, GENERAL SERVICES, UH, ALL FOUR OF THE ROOFS FALL INTO THE RED.
UH, ALL FOUR OF THE ROOFS ARE, UM, UH, WITH A CONSEQUENCE OF FIRE AND PROBABILITY OF FAILURE ARE ON THE HIGHEST LEVELS POSSIBLE.
AND, UH, THE REASON WHY I WANTED YOU TO SHARE THAT WITH US IS BECAUSE THERE'S A REASON WHY WE IMPLEMENTED THE ASSET MANAGEMENT PROGRAM AND THAT WAS TO REMOVE AMBIGUITY WITH MAKING DECISIONS AS IT RELATES SPECIFICALLY TO, WELL, EVERYTHING BUT TO REPAIRS.
AND, UH, THAT'S WHAT I NEEDED.
SO RED IS THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF URGENCY AND THAT'S, THAT'S ALL I NEEDED.
ALRIGHT, SO I UNDERSTAND SOME COUNCIL WONDER WHY WE, WE ARE PLANNING TO, UH, BUILD A NEW POLICE STATION.
WHY WE WANNA DO THE ROOF RIGHT NOW, BUT YOU KNOW, YOU CANNOT WAIT.
