WILL MOVE INTO OUR WORK SESSION REPORTS. 
          ITEM SIX A PROVIDED AN OVERVIEW OF THE HISTORY OF PUBLIC ART AND ADDISON, DISCUSS WAYS PUBLIC ART IS CURRENTLY INCLUDED IN THE TOWN'S MARKETING EFFORTS. 
          AND BRAINSTORM ADDITIONAL MARKETING CHANNELS. 
          JANET AND MARY , MAYOR COUNCIL, JAN TWELL, DIRECTOR OF PARKS AND REC. 
          AND I AM HERE WITH MARY , DIRECTOR OF MAR TOURISM I THE TOURISM PART THAT END. 
          UM, WE'RE HERE THIS EVENING TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT PUBLIC ART MARKETING IN ADDISON. 
          UM, AND TO DO SO, I WANTED TO SHARE WITH YOU A LITTLE HISTORY OF PUBLIC ART IN ADDISON. 
          SO, ADDISON'S FIRST TIME LED PUBLIC ART INSTALLATION IS BLUEPRINT AT ADDISON CIRCLE, WHICH WAS INSTALLED ON APRIL 13TH, 2000. 
          IT WAS DESIGNED BY ARTISTS CHEN IN LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT MICHAEL VAN BERG. 
          IT'S PROMINENTLY LOCATED IN ADDISON CIRCLE DISTRICT AT THE CENTER OF A ROUNDABOUT, UM, JUST UP THE STREET AT THE INTERSECTION OF CORN ROAD AND ADDISON CIRCLE. 
          AND THE TOTAL COST OF THE SCULPTURE WAS $2.1 MILLION. 
          UM, AND THAT WAS IN 2000. 
          AND IT WAS DESIGNED TO RESEMBLE THE BRANCHING PATTERN OF A GROVE OF OAK TREES. 
          THE PANEL SUPPORTED BY THE BRANCHES ARE CREATED FROM ACTUAL GROUP BLUEPRINTS, FROM ADDISON'S MUNICIPAL BUILDINGS, PARKS, RIDGES, AND WATER FACILITIES. 
          UM, THE ADDISON ARBOR FOUNDATION HAS FACILITATED THE INSTALLATION OF 22, AND I THINK NOW IT ACTUALLY MAYBE 23 ADDITIONAL PUBLIC ART INSTALLATIONS IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE TOWN SINCE 2012. 
          AND FUNDING IS PRIMARILY PROVIDED BY THE TOWN OF ADDISON THROUGH GRANT REQUESTS. 
          UM, EARLY INSTALLATIONS WERE WHAT WE CALLED RESCUE PIECES THAT THEY ACQUIRED AND RESTORED. 
          UM, THOSE WORKS INCLUDED LIGHT AND ENERGY, WHICH THERE'S A PHOTO RIGHT HERE FOR YOU BY ARTIST CHRIS BYERS. 
          UM, LOOP THE LOOP, WHICH IS ON, UH, RED TRAIL BY KATIE CASITA, FOLDED SQUARE ALPHABET D BY FLETCHER BITTEN, WHICH IS ON RED TRAIL, MARFA BY MAC WHITNEY, WHICH IS LOCATED AT PARKVIEW PARK. 
          AND THEN A KETO BY DAVID HICKMAN, WHICH IS LOCATED RIGHT ACROSS FROM US AT GALAXY FBO. 
          AND HERE'S SOME PHOTOS OF THOSE ARTWORKS. 
          JUST THE TOWN OF ADDISON HAS A PUBLIC ART POLICY THAT DESIGNS, UM, THE PURPOSE AND THE GOALS FOR PUBLIC ART GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR ACCEPTING DONATED WORKS 
          [00:05:01]
OF ART. 
          UM, THE PROCESS FOR SELECTING AND LOCATING ART INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES, AND THEN EVEN DEES AND IN STORAGE GUIDELINES IF WE WERE TO DETERMINE THAT THE PIECE WASN'T APPROPRIATE TO BE IN A PUBLIC SETTING ANY LONGER. 
          UM, THROUGH THIS POLICY, ADDISON ARBOR FOUNDATION RECOMMENDS TWO COUNCIL COMMISSIONS AND PURCHASES OF PUBLIC ART TO BE LOCATED ON TOWN PROPERTY OR WITHIN PUBLIC ACCESS EASEMENTS. 
          AND THEN COUNCIL APPROVES THE PROPOSED INSTALLATIONS PRIOR TO THE ADDISON ARBOR FOUNDATION INITIATING CONTRACTS WITH ARTISTS. 
          SO THAT'S THE TYPICAL PROCESS FOR HOW A PIECE OF ART IS SELECTED AND HOW IT WAS LOCATED WITHIN THE TOWN. 
          UM, SHOWN HERE IS A MORE ABSTRACT PIECE THAT'S LOCATED ON BELTWAY, THAT'S A COMMUNITY GARDEN CALLED LAS WISCONSIN BY ARTIS MCNA LAKE. 
          A PUBLIC ART COLLECTION SHOULD REPRESENT DIVERSE ARTISTIC STYLES, UM, USE OF MATERIALS AND SUBJECT MATTERS BECAUSE IT IS TRYING TO HAVE EXAMPLES OF THINGS THAT APPEAL TO OUR VERY DIVERSE COMMUNITY. 
          UM, PICTURE HERE ARE SOME EXAMPLES OF FIGURATIVE INSTALLATIONS. 
          SO MEDITATION THERE BY JOSHUA TOBY, UM, IS LOCATED IN FRONT OF THE ALLISON CIRCLE PARK PAVILION. 
          UM, LET'S PLAY IS THE DOG SCULPTURE AT SQUIRREL PARK. 
          AND THEN JACK OF ALL TRADES IS AN INSTALLATION ACROSS FROM THE ADDISON ATHLETIC CLUB AT UX PARK BY JOHN LER. 
          SO YOU CAN SEE SOME OF THE PREVIOUS EXAMPLES I SHOWED YOU WERE MORE ABSTRACT IN NATURE. 
          AND THEN THE ONES HERE ARE MORE FIGURATIVE IN NATURE. 
          UM, THE TOWN MARKETS, THEY'RE PUBLIC ART THROUGH THE USE OF APPS. 
          UM, SOME OF THOSE ARE SHOWN HERE. 
          WE DO HAVE AN APP SERVICE CALLED AUTOCAST THAT WHEN WE CAN, WE HAVE THE ARTISTS DO A RECORDING THAT EITHER TALKS ABOUT THEIR WORK THAT THEY CREATE OR THAT PARTICULAR PIECE OF ART. 
          AND IT IS LAID OUT IN A WAY THAT PEOPLE WHO ARE LOOKING FOR PUBLIC ART AND ADDISON CAN FIND THE LOCATION ON A MAP, LEARN WHO CREATED IT, WHAT THE TITLE OF THE ARTWORK IS, SEE A PHOTO OF IT, AND IN SOME INSTANCES HEAR A RECORDING FROM THE ARTIST. 
          AND SO THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE ON YOUR IPHONE. 
          UM, WE ALSO HAVE OUR PUBLIC ART LISTED ON OUR WEBPAGE, AND SO THERE'S A MAP THAT SHOWS WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE ALSO. 
          AND THEN I'M GONNA TURN IT OVER TO MARY TO TALK ABOUT THE OTHER, UM, FORMS THAT THE TOWN USES TO MARKET OUR PUBLIC ART. 
          YEAH. 
          UM, JUST AS A REFERENCE ON THE AUTOCAD STAFF FROM JANUARY ONE TO MARCH 20TH, UM, THERE THEY REGISTERED THE, UM, PEOPLE THAT PUT THE APP TOGETHER, UM, SHOWED THAT PEOPLE CLICKED ON AN ART PIECE TO FIND OUT ABOUT IT 304 TIMES. 
          UM, AND THERE WERE 93 AUDIO PLAYS. 
          SO WE KNOW PEOPLE ARE USING THE A. 
          UM, ONE OF THE WAYS THAT WE PROMOTE THE APP AND WE PROMOTE PUBLIC WORK ARE THROUGH OUR OWNED MEDIA. 
          THE WEBSITE AND AUTOCAST TO SOME EXTENT, ARE OWNED MEDIA BECAUSE WE CONTROL WHAT'S ON 'EM. 
          UM, SOME OTHER OWNED MEDIA OUTLETS THAT WE USE ARE THINGS LIKE OUR WEBSITE. 
          UM, WE PUT A LOT ON VISIT ADDISON BECAUSE WE WANT GUESTS THAT ARE COMING TO TOWN TO BE FAMILIAR WITH IT. 
          UM, SO WE INCLUDE ARTICLES, UM, THAT ARE SHARED NOT ONLY ON THE WEBSITE, BUT WE PUT 'EM IN OUR, UM, ADDISON ACCESS PUBLICATION. 
          THAT'S OUR NEWSLETTER THAT WE SEND OUT FOR TOURISM THAT'S GOT A SUBSCRIBER BASE OF ABOUT 15,000 PEOPLE. 
          AND IT RATE ABOUT 50%. 
          UM, INTERESTINGLY, WHEN WE DID THE NEW YEAR'S EVE, NEW YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS ONE, UM, WE SAW A SPIKE BASED ON WHAT WE GOT BACK FROM THE DEVELOPERS FROM THE APP, THE PEOPLE THAT WENT TO THE APP TO DOWNLOAD THEM AND LOOK AT THINGS THAT WERE GOING ON. 
          SO WE KNOW THAT THIS TYPE OF THING IS WORKING. 
          WE ALSO SHARED ON OUR SOCIAL MEDIA, UM, OUR, OUR PIECES GET A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF ENGAGEMENT. 
          UM, THIS ONE HERE YOU CAN SEE HAD, UH, 51 DIFFERENT ENGAGEMENTS, UM, PLUS FIVE COMMENTS AND SHARES. 
          UM, WE ALSO USE EARNED MEDIA TO PROMOTE OUR PUBLIC ART. 
          UM, THE ARTICLE ON THE TOP RIGHT IS FROM THE DALLAS MORNING NEWS FROM AUGUST OF 2022. 
          THAT WAS ONE THAT WE WORKED, UM, WITH THEM A LOT TO GET DONE. 
          UM, AND WE TOOK THAT ARTICLE WHEN WE SHARED IT ON SOCIAL MEDIA. 
          SO WE REPURPOSED IT IN A WAY TO GIVE US EXTRA EXPOSURE. 
          UM, ADDISON MAGAZINE HAS ALSO HELPED US PROMOTE, UM, OUR, OUR ART. 
          UM, WE'VE GOT SOME INFLUENCERS, THE MURAL AFFAIR THAT, THAT WAS AN INFLUENCER THAT WAS OUT DOING SOME STUFF FOR HAVING SOME OF OUR OTHER EVENTS AND SAW THE MURAL AND USED THAT AS A FEATURE. 
          AND, UM, HER PICTURE ABOUT ALLISON. 
          AND, UM, AND THEN 
          [00:10:01]
WORKING WITH PEOPLE LIKE GALAXY, FBO AND SOME OF THE OTHER BUSINESSES THAT, UM, HAVE OUR ART, UH, OUT FRONT, THAT THEY PUT THOSE IN THEIR, UM, IN THEIR NEWSLETTERS AND ON THEIR SOCIAL MEDIA. 
          AND SO WORKING WITH THEM ON THINGS LIKE THAT. 
          UM, WE ALSO DO PAID MEDIA. 
          UM, THIS AT WAS OBSCURE WAS A, A CO-OP OPPORTUNITY THAT WE DID WITH TORT TEXAS BACK IN JULY OF 2022. 
          AND THIS WAS A GREAT PIECE BECAUSE YOU CAN STILL, IF YOU GOOGLE ART MADISON, THIS IS ONE PIECE THAT STILL COMES UP. 
          IT'S GOT A MAP. 
          IT HAD, UM, SEVERAL DIFFERENT OF THE PIECES. 
          YOU CAN CLICK ON 'EM, FIND 'EM, YOU COULD GET INFORMATION ABOUT IT. 
          SO THAT WAS A REALLY GREAT PIECE. 
          AND IT'S ONE THAT, UM, EVEN THOUGH IT WAS A COUPLE YEARS AGO, UM, IT'S STILL ONLINE BECAUSE THAT'S A PRETTY SIGNIFICANT TRAVEL SITE. 
          UM, WE ALSO INCLUDE THE ART IN OUR, UM, TOURISM ADVERTISEMENT. 
          SO THESE ARE A COUPLE OF EXAMPLES. 
          THE WHERE ART HAPPENS, UM, WITH OUR OLD CAMPAIGN. 
          OUR NEWER CAMPAIGN IS PICTURED YOURSELF IN ADDISON. 
          WE MENTIONED IN THE COPY PUBLIC ART. 
          UM, BUT WE ALSO SHOW WE'RE CREATING ADS SIMILAR TO THE, UM, WHERE ART HAPPENS THAT ARE MORE PICTURE YOURSELF THAN ALLISON. 
          AND WE'LL HAVE SPECIFIC, UM, DIFFERENT ART THAT WILL, UM, CYCLE THROUGH. 
          WE ALSO HAVE OUR NEW, UM, WEBSITE THAT WE'RE WORKING ON THAT IS TOURISM OR TOURISM WEBSITE. 
          UM, SO THIS WILL INTERFACE REALLY CLOSELY WITH THE TOWN SITE. 
          UM, BUT IT'S GOT A LITTLE BIT MORE FLEXIBILITY. 
          THIS THINGS TO DO PART IS ONE OF THE HIGHLIGHTS. 
          IT'S ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS YOU SEE WHEN YOU GO TO THAT PAGE. 
          UM, WE'RE STILL WORKING OUT ALL OF THE DETAILS ON IT, BUT IT, IT'LL DEFINITELY BE A PARK AND PUBLIC ART, UM, COMPONENT TO THAT. 
          IT'LL BE FRONT AND CENTER. 
          UM, AND THEN WITH OUR RESTAURANT GUIDE THAT WE HAVE, VISITOR RESTAURANT GUIDE, UM, WE ARE WORKING ON IN OUR NEXT, UM, REDO FOR THAT, INCLUDING PUBLIC ART, UM, AND A QR CODE ON THAT THAT IS DISTRIBUTED IN ALL OF THE HOTELS. 
          WE SEND IT OUT TO VISITOR CENTERS. 
          WE SEND IT TO GROUPS WHEN THEY'RE COMING IN TOWN. 
          UM, AND IT'S A GREAT WAY TO, UM, PROMOTE PUBLIC ART. 
          SO WE'LL INCLUDE THAT ON THERE. 
          WE'VE MENTIONED IT IN THE PAST, BUT WE DIDN'T HAVE THE ART INCORPORATED IN THE MAP, BUT WE'RE GONNA ADD THAT PIECE. 
          UH, WE'RE ALSO PUTTING TOGETHER OUR PARKS, TRAILS, AND ART MAP. 
          UM, THAT'LL BE A STANDALONE PIECE THAT WE CAN SHARE WITH OUR HOTELS. 
          UM, INCORPORATING TRAILS IN THERE AND, AND TRYING TO HAVE THAT KIND OF AN ALL IN ONE. 
          WE KNOW THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT COME AND SAY, I WANNA GO WALK. 
          UM, WE GONNA WALK. 
          WHAT CAN I DO? SO HAVING SOME OF THEM LIKE THAT WE CAN HAND OUT WILL, WILL BE A GREAT ADVANTAGE AND WE'LL GET PEOPLE THAT ARE ALREADY HERE OUT AND ABOUT. 
          UM, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT JANET'S WORKING ON IS A QR CODE THAT'LL, UM, ACTUALLY BE TAKING THE AUTOCAST APP AT EACH OF THE ART LOCATIONS. 
          SO IF YOU FIND ONE, WE REALLY LIKE IT, UM, WE CAN SCAN THE QR CODE, YOU CAN SEE THE APP, AND THEN YOU CAN LEARN ABOUT ALL THE OTHER PIECES THAT ARE AROUND HERE. 
          UM, WE ARE, UH, EXPLORING PARTNERSHIPS RIGHT NOW WITH SOME COMPANIES THAT PUT TOGETHER FOOD IN OUR TOURS. 
          UM, TALKED TO SOMEBODY THE OTHER DAY WHO, UM, WAS AN AT SOME RESIDENT WHO'S FAMILIAR WITH THE ART. 
          SO WE'RE TALKING ABOUT SOME THINGS THAT WE COULD DO IN MADISON CIRCLE AND, AND THEN MAYBE SOME THINGS, UM, AROUND OTHER PARTS OF TOWN AS WELL. 
          UM, WE'LL BE DOING SOME MORE PUBLIC ART, UH, SOME MORE ADVERTISING, BUT ALSO SOME, UM, INCREASED PUBLIC RELATIONS EFFORTS, UH, FOR SOME OF THE TOURISM STUFF THAT WE'LL, WE'LL HAVE MORE PERMISSION FOR YOU ALL ABOUT IN MAY. 
          SO WE'VE GOT A LOT OF THINGS WE'RE WORKING ON WITH THE TARGET TOWARDS PROMOTING PUBLIC ART. 
          THAT'S IT FOR ME. 
          I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. 
          I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR YOUR IDEAS IF YOU HAVE OTHER THOUGHTS. 
          I'VE GOT A COUPLE QUESTIONS. 
          OKAY. 
          UM, SO WHEN WE TALK ABOUT ART, ARE WE MAINLY TALKING ABOUT SCULPTURES OR MURALS OR, UM, ART LIKE, UH, CARVE INTO TREES, LIKE OVER IN EAST STATUS AND WHAT ALL? SO WE ARE TALKING ABOUT PUBLIC ART THAT IS ON OUR PUBLIC PROPERTY AND TODAY IS SCULPTURES. 
          UM, WE DO HAVE SOME POTENTIAL PARTNERS SUCH AS THE AM LEE ADDISON MURAL THAT'S ON A WALL THAT WE HAVE TALKED ABOUT, INTEGRATING THOSE ELEMENTS INTO AUTOCAST. 
          UM, THE, UM, WOODEN SCULPTURES ALONG WHITE ROCK CREEK TRAIL WOULD BE CONSIDERED PUBLIC ART. 
          IT'S MORE OF A TEMPORARY PUBLIC ART BECAUSE EVENTUALLY THOSE WILL DEEN CODE AND GO BACK TO NATURE. 
          UM, BUT WE DO CONSIDER THOSE TO BE PART OF OUR PUBLIC ART COLLECTION. 
          OKAY. 
          AND WE USE THOSE FOR THINGS LIKE INSTAGRAMABLE STOCK AND ADDISON, UM, BECAUSE THE MURALS ARE REALLY POPULAR FOR THINGS LIKE THAT. 
          SO WE DO PUT OUT, WE'LL DO A, UM, EVERY NOW AND THEN, UH, UH, A BLOG POST ABOUT INSTAGRAM EVIL SPOTS. 
          AND SOME OF THOSE ARE HARD SPOTS. 
          SOME OF 'EM ARE SCULPTURES, SOME OF 'EM ARE MURALS. 
          OKAY. 
          AND, AND IT, IT APPEARS THAT WE ARE, WE ARE WORKING IN PROGRESS AS FAR AS UPDATING AUTOCAST AND SOME OF THESE SITES AND SO FORTH WITH OUR INVENTORY. 
          IS THAT CORRECT? IS THAT ACCURATE? I'VE JUST LOOKED AT AUTOCAST SPECTRA, FOR 
          [00:15:01]
EXAMPLE. 
          MM-HMM. 
          . 
          IT'S NOT THERE. 
          THE MURAL FAMILY ADDISON MURAL. 
          SO HOPEFULLY WE COULD ADD, YEAH. 
          SO THEY, UM, SPECTRA I BELIEVE IS ON AUTOCAD. 
          OKAY. 
          UM, IF IT'S NOT, IT WENT AWAY. 
          SO I NEED TO LOOK INTO THAT. 
          OKAY. 
          NOW, THE AMIE MURAL, UM, THAT WAS ONE THAT WE REALLY FELT LIKE WE NEEDED TO REACH OUT TO AMIE AND MAKE SURE THAT THEY WERE COMFORTABLE WITH IT. 
          'CAUSE WE'RE DIRECTING PEOPLE TO THEIR FACILITY. 
          BUT WE HAVE A COUPLE OF THOSE IN THE WORKS. 
          WE DO HAVE AN AGREEMENT WITH THE COMPANY THAT PUTS TOGETHER THE APP THAT THEY DO. 
          THEY WILL DO AN UPDATE FOR US TWICE A YEAR. 
          AND SO WE TRY TO GET A COLLECTION OF OUR PIECES THAT WE SEND 'EM, AND THEN THEY DO THEIR UPDATE. 
          OKAY. 
          TWICE A YEAR. 
          OKAY. 
          UM, WHAT HAVE WE, SO LIKE SCULPTURES FOR EXAMPLE, WE HAVE WHAT, 22? 23. 
          23. 
          OKAY. 
          SO, AND, AND FROM MY COUNT, THAT'S ABOUT 25% OF THE SCULPTURES AROUND TOWN. 
          UM, HAVE WE THOUGHT ABOUT REACHING OUT TO, UM, SOME OF THE PRIVATE ENTITIES, WHETHER THEY BE IN A, AN APARTMENT, UM, A HOTEL, UM, RESIDENT, WHAT HAVE YOU, AND, AND ASK THEM IF, IF THEY WOULD BE OPEN TO, TO HAVING THEIR ART LISTED IN, IN WHEREVER WE'RE DISPLAYING THESE THINGS. 
          WE CAN'T, LIKE, FOR THEIR PERMISSION. 
          YEAH, WE COULD DO THAT. 
          WE WOULD WANNA MAKE SURE THAT IT'S EASY TO, FOR THE PUBLIC TO ACCESS. 
          SO IT'S OPEN. 
          UM, I THINK THERE'S ONE AT THE HOTEL OVER HERE ADJACENT TO SPECTRUM THAT THERE'S A PIECE THERE THAT WOULD BE AN EASY ONE TO INTEGRATE BECAUSE YOU COULD SEE IT FROM THE PARKING LOT. 
          UM, SO WE COULD REACH OUT, UM, IF WE DO THAT, I STILL WOULD, I'D LIKE TO FIND A WAY THAT WE DESIGNATE WHICH PIECES BELONG TO US. 
          SURE. 
          AND SO IT'S VERY CLEAR THAT WE'RE GETTING CREDIT FOR THE ART INSTALLATIONS THAT WE OVERSAW, BUT WE CAN PURSUE THAT. 
          YEAH. 
          I JUST, I THINK THE COMBINATION, IF WE CAN GET THAT TYPE OF PERMISSION, UM, THE COMBINATION IS POWERFUL AND WITHOUT IT, IT'S LACKING IN MY MIND. 
          UM, EDUCATION IN TERMS OF LEGACY, CHRISTIAN GREEN HILL SCHOOL, THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, GEORGE BUSH, UM, UNIVERSITIES, DO WE COMMUNICATE WITH THEIR ART DEPARTMENTS? DO THEY HAVE ART DEPARTMENTS? DO THEY POTENTIALLY USE THIS AS AN EXAMPLE OF ART FOR A POTENTIAL FIELD TRIP? OR NOT A, NOT POTENTIAL FIELD TRIP, BUT A SCAVENGER HUNT OR SOMETHING TO PLAY ALONG WITH? SO I DO KNOW THAT GREENFIELD HAS USED OUR PUBLIC ART, UM, IN THE SPRING. 
          THEY KIND OF HAVE SOME TIMES WHERE THEY GO OUTDOORS AND THEY EXPLORE OUR PARKS. 
          AND I KNOW THAT FINDING THE PUBLIC ART PIECES ALONG THEIR PATH IS PART OF THEIR PROCESS. 
          UM, BUT WHEN THIS DISCUSSION AROSE, WE INTERNALLY DISCUSSED THE IDEA OF ONCE WE GET OUR ART PARK TRAILS MAP COMPLETE, THAT WE WOULD SEND SOME INFORMATION OUT TO ALL OF THE AREA SCHOOLS, MAKE 'EM AWARE OF OUR PUBLIC ART COLLECTION, AND PROVIDE THEM WITH A MAP AND LET THEM KNOW THAT WE ARE HERE AND AVAILABLE TO BE OUR RESOURCE FOR THEM. 
          I'M ALMOST THINKING MORE LIKE A SCAVENGER HUNT TO GET TICKETS TO KA BOOMTOWN SOME, SOMETHING ALONG THAT LINE WITH THEIR PARENTS AND THE CHILD TOUR TO POTENTIALLY BE ENTERED FOR POTENTIALLY RAFFLE SOME SORT OF RAFFLE. 
          IT DOESN'T COST US ANYTHING OTHER THAN WE'RE GONNA GET THE PARENT, THE GRANDPARENT AND THE STUDENT, THE IMAGINATION POTENTIALLY TAKE OFF. 
          WE GET THE EXPOSURE. 
          AND WE DID INCLUDE IN OUR SUMMER CAMPUS THIS, HERE WE HAVE AN ART WEEK. 
          UM, AND I DON'T KNOW IF Y'ALL SAW IT WHEN WE DID IT LIKE A YEAR AGO, WE TURNED THE RACKETBALL CORDS INTO A GALLERY WHERE THE STUDENTS CREATED A PIECE OF ART. 
          THEY PUT IT ON DISPLAY, UM, BROUGHT THEIR PARENTS IN TO SHOW 'EM WHAT THEY'VE BEEN WORKING ON. 
          AND SO THIS YEAR WHEN WE DO THAT SUMMER CAMP COMPONENT, WE'RE GOING TO TAKE THEM ON A WALKING TOUR AND LOOK AT SOME OF OUR ART PIECES, AND WE'RE GOING TO TRY TO, UM, INTEGRATE A 3D COMPONENT TO THE ART THAT THEY'RE CREATING. 
          YEAH. 
          I SAID THAT'S, IT IS JUST SO HARD WITH EVERYTHING PUBLIC AND IT'S ALWAYS OPEN. 
          RIGHT. 
          UNLESS YOU DON'T SLEEP AT NIGHT, YOU'RE GOING TO BED. 
          IT'S JUST TO GET THE APARTMENT COMPONENT. 
          MAYBE THEY'RE INCLUDED IN THAT SCAVENGER HUNT TYPE OF THING FOR POTENTIAL TICKETS TO TASTE, POTENTIAL TICKETS TO TAKE A BOOM OR A COVER FEST BECAUSE YOU'RE REALLY HITTING 'EM THREE TIMES A YEAR WITH NO COST OR JUST TICKET COST. 
          YEAH. 
          THE DALLAS ARTS DISTRICT DOES A SCAVENGER HUNT ALREADY. 
          SO IT'S, IT'S A SIMPLE THING FOR US TO COPY. 
          AND WE HAVE A LOT MORE, WE HAVE A LOT MORE IN A, IN A VERY AREA. 
          A AREA AREA. 
          YES. 
          THAT'S ALL VERY CONCENTRATED AREA, SO, SURE. 
          I DON'T HAVE A QUESTION, BUT I DO HAVE A COMMENT. 
          I, I APPRECIATE HOW YOU'RE LEVERAGING OR GOING TO LEVERAGE THE WEBSITE ON THE UPCOMING PROJECTS. 
          SO HOPEFULLY IT'LL, IT WILL GET, IT'LL BE COME EVEN MORE OF AN ASSET ONCE WE, UH, DO THE UPGRADE ON THE WEBSITE. 
          YEAH. 
          WE'RE EXCITED ABOUT 
          [00:20:01]
IT. 
          SO I'M EXCITED ABOUT THAT. 
          WANTED TO SAY THAT. 
          SO ARE YOU DONE? YES. 
          SORRY. 
          UM, SO CAN WE INCLUDE, LIKE, IN OUR NEWSLETTER, LIKE SOMETHING ABOUT A PIECE OF ART EACH MONTH OR MAYBE EVERY OTHER MONTH? BECAUSE I THINK THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE IN TOWN THAT DON'T KNOW THAT WE HAVE THAT. 
          SO IT MIGHT ACTUALLY DRIVE SOME INTEREST FROM OUR RESIDENTS TO DO THAT KIND OF THING. 
          DALLAS DOES, THERE'S A THING CALLED TOP DALLAS ART TOURS, WHICH THEY ALSO LIST THINGS IN FORT WORTH. 
          THEY LIST NOTHING IN ADDISON. 
          SO ARE WE WORKING WITH THEM TO TRY TO COORDINATE TOURS HERE? IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THAT WOULD BE A, A GOOD THING TO DO. 
          I WOULD LOVE TO SEE US INCLUDE MAPS AT THE FBOS. 
          WHEN PEOPLE COME IN ON THOSE WONDERFUL JETS AND THEY ARE STAYING IN TOWN, I WOULD LOVE FOR THEM TO PICK UP AN ART MAP AND GO, WOW, THIS IS REALLY COOL. 
          I WANT TO GO SEE ALL THESE THINGS THAT ARE RIGHT HERE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          UM, HAVE WE WORKED WITH SOUTHWEST GALLERIES? THEY'RE RIGHT HERE. 
          THEY'RE HUGE. 
          A LOT OF THE ART THAT YOU'VE SHOWN, THEY REPRESENT THOSE DEALERS. 
          WHY CAN'T WE HAVE THEM COORDINATE THE ART TOURS? THEY MEET AT SOUTHWEST GALLERIES. 
          THEY GET THEIR LITTLE, YOU KNOW, CUP OF TEA AND COOKIES OR WHATEVER IT IS, AND THEN THEY DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT. 
          MAYBE IT'S A PAID THING, BUT IT'S VERY CLOSE. 
          DRIVES BUSINESS FOR THEM. 
          BRINGS PEOPLE TO ADDISON. 
          I JUST WANT US TO, TO THINK ABOUT ALL THE POSSIBILITIES. 
          FORT WORTH CHILD, IT'S A GREAT MAGAZINE DOING SOMETHING WHERE YOU CAN HAVE KIDS AND PARENTS DO ART WALKS. 
          I THINK THERE'S A GREAT OPPORTUNITY THERE. 
          UM, THE FOURSQUARE CITY GUIDE WE'RE NOT INCLUDED IN, I WOULD LOVE TO SEE US INCLUDED IN THAT. 
          I THINK THERE ARE LOTS OF THINGS THAT WE STILL HAVEN'T DONE. 
          SO I WANT TO CHALLENGE YOU TO THINK BIGGER AND BRING PEOPLE TO TOWN. 
          AND I WOULD LOVE TO BRING PEOPLE TO TOWN FOR SOMETHING WHERE THEY'RE GOING TO COME IN AND STAY OVERNIGHT SO THAT PEOPLE COME TO OUR HOTELS, THEY SEE OUR ART, THEY PARTICIPATE IN, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF THINGS AROUND TOWN THAT THEY'RE USING OUR RESTAURANTS. 
          I JUST WANT TO SEE US THINK BIGGER. 
          SO THERE'S MY CHALLENGE TO YOU. 
          GREAT IDEAS. 
          THANKS FOR SHARING. 
          I, I WOULD JUST, AND WE DO APPRECIATE ALL THOSE IDEAS. 
          I THINK THEY WERE, THERE ARE A LOT OF REALLY GOOD IDEAS. 
          UM, AND I, I THINK YOU KIND OF SAW THE IDEAS WE'VE HAD TOO. 
          AND SO WE HAVE A LOT OF STUFF ON OUR PLATE. 
          I WOULD PUT IN A PLUG NOW FOR FUTURE BUDGET CONVERSATIONS THAT, UM, THAT MARKETING'S VERY IMPORTANT FOR ALL CITIES RIGHT NOW, ESPECIALLY FOR ADDISON. 
          SO WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE GET THE RESOURCES TO PERRY AND HER TEAM SO WE CAN DO A LOT OF THE STUFF THAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. 
          SO, UM, ONE SHOUT OUT FROM MARY THERE. 
          APPRECIATE THAT. 
          . 
          OH, I HAVE ONE MORE QUESTION. 
          SO WHAT'S OUR TIMEFRAME ON GETTING MAPS TO THE HOTELS? UM, REAGAN IS WORKING ON THOSE, UM, NOW, SO IT SHOULDN'T BE TOO LONG. 
          UM, WITHIN THE NEXT COUPLE OF MONTHS. 
          WE'VE BEEN BUSY THE LAST FEW WEEKS, SO, UM, IT'LL BE IN THE NEXT COUPLE MONTHS. 
          THANKS. 
          OKAY. 
          ANYTHING ELSE? THANK YOU. 
          THANKS Y'ALL. 
          ALRIGHT, 
          [b.  Present and discuss the Addison Police Department's 2023 Annual Report.]
ITEM SIX B, PRESENT AND DISCUSS THE ADDISON POLICE DEPARTMENT'S 2023 ANNUAL REPORT, CHIEF VINCENT . 
          ALRIGHT, GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. 
          MIKE VINCENT, INTERIM CHIEF OF POLICE. 
          AND, UH, VERY EXCITED THAT SHARE OUR HIGH LEVEL OVERVIEW OF OUR 2023 ANNUAL REPORT. 
          THE, UM, THE LARGER DOCUMENTS IS AVAILABLE, AND IT'S GOT A LOT MORE DETAIL THAT WE'RE GONNA COVER TONIGHT. 
          I I HAD ABOUT 37 SLIDES OF STATISTICS, UH, ONLY CUT. 
          BUT, UH, BEFORE WE DIVE INTO, UH, THE MEAT AND POTATOES, I DO WANNA RECOGNIZE THAT KARA FUENTES AND JESSICA MORGAN AND TWO OF OUR STAFFERS, THAT THEY REALLY DID THE BULK OF THE WORK. 
          WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE ACTUAL DOCUMENT, THE AMOUNT OF EFFORT THAT WENT INTO THAT, THESE TWO RIGHT HERE, UH, I'M JUST THE VOICE, BUT THEY, THEY REALLY DID ALL WORK. 
          SO JUST WANT TO TAKE A MOMENT TO RECOGNIZE THE, THE HOURS AND HOURS AND HAVING TO CONSISTENTLY MEET WITH ME AND EXPLAIN TO ME EVERYTHING THAT THEY WERE DOING. 
          UM, BUT, SO THIS IS OUR KIND OF YEAR REVIEW. 
          IT'S A LITTLE BIT OF A SHIFT FROM PREVIOUS ANNUAL REPORTS. 
          PREVIOUS REPORTS WERE MORE HEAVILY ON THE STATISTICAL SIDE. 
          UM, BUT THIS IS A BIT MORE, WE'RE STILL GONNA TOUCH ON THAT. 
          WE'RE GONNA JUST TOUCH MORE INTO JUST KIND OF AN OVERVIEW OF ALL THE GOOD THINGS THAT, THAT OUR TEAM IS DOING. 
          UM, TALK ABOUT SOME OF OUR STAFFING ISSUES, BUT ALSO SPECIAL PROJECTS ACCOMPLISHMENTS. 
          AGAIN, WE'RE JUST GONNA HIGHLIGHT A FEW OF THESE ITEMS. BUT THE, UM, THE WEBSITE, OUR WEBSITE ALREADY HAS THIS TO MARY WHERE SHE WROTE THERE, SHE'S ALREADY GOT THE 2023 REPORT LIVE ON THE WEBSITE. 
          SO ANYBODY THAT'S AT HOME WATCHING, UH, CAN PULL THAT OFF AND, AND READ THAT IN DETAIL. 
          UH, A THIRD LEISURE. 
          UM, JUST ANOTHER QUICK OVERVIEW OF THE WAY WE'RE STRUCTURED, UH, RIGHT 
          [00:25:01]
NOW. 
          THIS, THIS IS ON PAPER WHILE HOW WE'RE STRUCTURED CURRENTLY, THE, UH, OPERATIONS DIVISION IS LED BY ME AS THE ASSISTANT CHIEF AND INTERIM CHIEF. 
          I'M KIND OF DUAL ROLE, UH, FOR THE, FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE. 
          UH, OUR SUPPORT DIVISION IS LED BY, UH, CAPTAIN SPENCER, WHO YOU, MANY OF YOU KNOW, HE'S HERE TONIGHT. 
          UM, OVER A MYRIAD OF TASKS, RIGHT? WE USUALLY SAY ON THE OPERATION SIDE, WE HAVE ALL THE PEOPLE AND THE SUPPORT SIDE HAS ALL OF THE THINGS AND THE STUFF, RIGHT? ALL THE TASKS, IT'S VERY TASK CAN BE ON THAT SIDE. 
          AND THEN OFFICE OF THE CHIEF, WE HAVE OUR PROFESSIONAL STANDARDS LIEUTENANT, AND THEN OUR MANAGEMENT ASSISTANT, THAT, THAT IS HIGHLY INVOLVED IN OUR BUDGET MANAGEMENT. 
          ALL OF OUR ACCOUNTS MANAGER. 
          THIS MAY CHANGE THIS, THIS STRUCTURE MAY CHANGE QUITE A BIT. 
          WE'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF A STAFFING STATE. 
          WE'LL TALK ABOUT THAT LATER. 
          UH, THERE MAY BE RECOMMENDATIONS DOWN THE ROAD THAT, THAT, UH, MAY GET A CHANGE TO THIS, OR AT LEAST A REQUEST FOR A CHANGE. 
          UM, A FEW ACCOMPLISHMENTS THIS YEAR, ONE OF OUR BIG ONES THAT, THAT WE'RE VERY PROUD OF IS, IS ONE OF OUR LIEUTENANTS PUT FORWARD A PROGRAM. 
          UH, THEY BE, YOU KNOW, A PRO, BE A PRO IS KIND OF THE, THE, THE MODEL, UH, OF AN ONLINE REPORTING. 
          SO THERE ARE A NUMBER OF REPORTS THAT, THAT WE TAKE, UH, THAT DON'T REALLY REQUIRE PHYSICALLY AN OFFICER TO COME OUT TO YOUR LOCATION AND SIT DOWN WITH YOU AND TALK ABOUT MAYBE A FRAUD OR AN IDENTITY THEFT. 
          THIS, THESE ARE THINGS, A LOT OF THESE THINGS TO BE EASILY REPORTED ONLINE. 
          IT'S MUCH BETTER, UH, FOR A LOT OF OUR CITIZENS. 
          SOME, SOME OF WHICH ARE TRAVELING. 
          THEY'RE HERE, SOMETHING HAPPENS AND THEY WANNA REPORT IT, AND THEY'RE OUTTA TOWN. 
          AND SO THEY DON'T HAVE TO WAIT AND COME BACK. 
          THEY CAN DO IT ONLINE. 
          IT'S A SPECIFIC, UH, LIST OF THINGS THAT ARE BEING ABLE REPORTED ONLINE. 
          UH, BUT IT STILL GETS REVIEWED BY A SERGEANT. 
          IT GETS ASSIGNED TO A DETECTIVE IF THERE'S LEADS. 
          SO FROM A SERVICE LEVEL PERSPECTIVE, THEY GET ALL THE SAME TREATMENT, BUT THEY DON'T HAVE TO WAIT FOR US TO COME OUT TO THEIR HOUSE, THEIR HOME, YOU KNOW, THE BUSINESS. 
          UH, BUT IT ALSO KEEPS OUR OFFICERS FREE TO RESPOND TO THE MORE, UH, CRITICAL CALLS, THE HIGHER PRIORITY CALLS BY NOT GETTING TIED ON WHAT WE WOULD CALL PAPER CALLS, UH, JUST, UM, REPORT CALLS. 
          SO THAT'S BEEN GREAT. 
          THIS SO FAR. 
          I THINK ROUGHLY, UM, JUST SINCE PROGRAM INCEPTION, WE WENT LIVE OCTOBER OF LAST YEAR, AND WE'VE SAVED ESTIMATE, UH, RIGHT NOW, $12,000 IN MAN HOURS OF COSTS FROM TAKING THIS REPORTS ONLINE. 
          WE'VE TAKEN, UH, OVER WELL OVER 200 REPORTS. 
          ANOTHER BIG, UH, JUST, IT'S ALWAYS A SUCCESS TO BE ABLE TO KEEP UP WITH THE TRAINING REQUIREMENTS, UH, THAT THE STATE CONTINUES TO PUT ON US, AS WELL AS MAKING SURE THAT WE ARE MEETING ALL OF THE REQUIREMENTS THAT WE PUT ON OURSELVES WITH ALERT TRAINING AND THE ACTIVE SHOOTER RESPONSE AND THINGS THAT BECOME TOP OF MIND WHEN THERE'S THINGS LIKE VALDI AND ALLEN OUTLETS AND THINGS LIKE THAT. 
          UM, WE ALSO CONTINUE OUR REGIONAL PARTNERSHIPS WITH OTHER AGENCIES. 
          A BIG ONE, UM, THAT I'M FOND OF, OBVIOUSLY IS OUR NOR TECH SWAT TEAM. 
          UH, BUT OUR TRAINING WITH THE OTHER THREE CITIES IN A NUMBER OF FACETS. 
          NOT JUST THE SWAT SIDE, BUT JUST A QUICK, UH, DATA SET. 
          OUR, OUR TEAM LAST YEAR, THE LAST 12 MONTHS, THEY CONDUCTED, UH, 10 HIGH RISK SEARCH WARRANTS AND RESPONDED TO EMERGENCY CALL OUT. 
          THAT'S, THAT'S A, A FULL-TIME TEAM THAT'S RESPONDING FROM ALL FOUR CITIES. 
          SO IT'S A GREAT, UH, GREAT PARTNERSHIP. 
          WE HAVE. 
          UM, WE ALSO, WE DID, WE'LL TALK ABOUT IT IN THE STATISTICAL SIDE, BUT WE DID SEE A SPIKE IN VEHICLE THEFTS. 
          UH, THAT WAS ONE OF THE FEW AREAS WE DID SEE AN INCREASE. 
          AND, BUT I WAS PROUD OF THE WAY OUR TEAM RESPONDED TO THAT. 
          THEY WENT OUT, WE ADDED, WE ACTUALLY ADDED SOME DEDICATED STAFF, ONE MORE DETECTIVE TO FOCUS ON VEHICLE THEFTS. 
          WE ADDED SOME INVESTIGATIVE SOFTWARE. 
          UH, WON'T SPEAK TO EXACTLY WHAT THAT DOES. 
          I DON'T WANT TO GIVE IT AWAY, UH, TO THE, TO THE BAD GUYS. 
          BUT, UH, IT WAS VERY CRITICAL, UH, TO OUR SUCCESS. 
          WE ALSO ADDED SOME DIRECT TO PATROLS, PUT SOME FOLKS OUT ON OVERTIME IN THE HOTSPOTS USING CRIME MAPPING AND, AND, AND GETTING THE DATA FROM OUR CRIME ANALYSIS, UH, TEAM THAT WE WERE ABLE TO SEE ONCE WE INSTITUTED SOME OF OUR PROTOCOLS ABOUT A 50% DECREASE FROM THAT INITIAL SPIKE. 
          SO FOR THE WHOLE YEAR, STILL A, A BIG JUMP, BUT ONCE WE WERE ABLE TO GET OUR FEET UNDER US AND UNDERSTAND AND RESPOND, WE SAW A DRAMATIC DECREASE. 
          I'M VERY PROUD OF OUR TEAM THAT, UH, ALSO ON THAT LINE, SEVERAL MULTI-AGENCY INVESTIGATIONS, WHICH IS GENERALLY HOW THESE THINGS WORK. 
          DALLAS PD AND A NUMBER OF OTHERS, UH, ON A NUMBER OF SPECIFIC, UM, CALLED CREWS. 
          WE HAVE 'EM IDENTIFIED. 
          WE KNOW WHO THEY ARE. 
          AND SHARING THAT INTELLIGENCE AND WORKING THOSE CASES TOGETHER, BECAUSE THESE CRIMES ARE NOT SINGULAR TO ADDISON, THE WHOLE REGION IS AFFECTED. 
          SO THE REGION HAS TO WORK TOGETHER, UH, TO SOLVE THAT. 
          UM, WE ALSO, TO REALLY THIS YEAR WAS A GOOD, REALLY, I THINK A REALLY STRENGTHENING YEAR FOR OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH METRO CREDIT SERVICES AND SOME OF OUR OTHER, UM, PARTNERS LIKE OUR CALLING HOUSING FORD, AND EVEN WITH THE DALLAS OFFICE, UH, SOLUTIONS TO RESPOND AS A COMMUNITY, NOT JUST THE POLICE DEPARTMENT, BUT REALLY STARTING TO PUT TOGETHER A HOLISTIC PLAN OF HOW DO WE ADDRESS THIS, THIS ISSUE AND, UH, RESPECT THE DIGNITY OF THE HUMAN BEING, BUT ALSO PROVIDE FOR SAFETY, SECURITY AND ENJOYMENT OF PUBLIC SPACE FOR OUR CITIZENS. 
          UM, THAT'S BEEN A, A GREAT THING. 
          WE HAVE, WE HOSTED OUR FIRST, UH, HOMELESS, UH, INFORMATION SEMINAR TO THE PUBLIC BACK IN NOVEMBER. 
          I BELIEVE WE HAVE ANOTHER ONE COMING UP IN MAY. 
          UM, SO THAT'S, THAT'S BEEN A BIG PLUS THIS LAST YEAR. 
          VERY EXCITED ABOUT THAT. 
          THAT REALLY EXCITED US UP. 
          STATS US. 
          YEAH. 
          [00:30:01]
UM, THIS IS JUST A BREAKDOWN, A HIGH LEVEL OVERVIEW. 
          TOTAL CALLS ACTUALLY WENT DOWN. 
          TOTAL CALLS, OUR SERVICE WENT DOWN, UH, JUST OVER 2% FROM LAST YEAR. 
          UM, YOU SEE OUR TOP CALLS FOR SERVICE CONTACT COMPLAINANT THAT IS KIND OF A GENERAL, SOMEBODY CALLED, WANTS TO TALK TO A POLICE OFFICER. 
          VAST MAJORITY OF THE TIME. 
          THAT DOESN'T EVEN RESULT IN A CRIMINAL OFFENSE. 
          IT'S, IT COULD BE SOMETHING LIKE, HEY, I'M GONNA BE OUTTA TOWN. 
          CAN I GIVE YOU MY CLOSE PATROL REQUEST? IT MAY BE, HEY, I'VE GOT A QUESTION ABOUT MY NEIGHBOR'S DOG IS LOUD. 
          WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT IT? THOSE TYPES OF THINGS. 
          BURGLAR ALARMS, UH, MAKE UP. 
          UH, THE SECOND BIGGEST CHUNK OF THAT. 
          WE SAW A DECREASE WHEN WE INSTITUTED THE, UH, BURGLAR ALARM. 
          THE FALSE ALARM MANAGEMENT PROGRAM IS KIND OF PLATEAUED NOW. 
          UH, SO IT STILL IS A, A BIG CHUNK OF HOW WE SPEND OUR TIME. 
          UH, AND THEN MINOR DISTURBANCES THAT COULD, THAT'S AGAIN, A BROAD CATEGORY. 
          ARGUMENTS, DIS DISAGREEMENTS, THINGS LIKE THAT. 
          THAT BIG CHUNK ON THE PIE CHART THAT SAYS ALL OTHER THOSE IS, THAT'S, THAT'S THINGS THAT KIND OF MEASURE 1% OR LESS OF HOW WE SPENT OUR TIME. 
          SO IT'S A BIG GRAB BAG OF THINGS. 
          UM, BUT, UH, THE OTHER, THE OTHER INTERESTING PART, ARRESTS WERE DOWN. 
          TRAFFIC STOPS UP, REPORTS DOWN. 
          SO THE, THE WAY THAT WE INTERPRET THAT, OBVIOUSLY ARREST BEING DOWN, THAT'S ALWAYS A GOOD THING. 
          WE GENERALLY SAY YOU'RE NOT GONNA RESTROOM AWAY OUT OF A PROBLEM, RIGHT? IF WE HAVE SOCIETAL ISSUES AND WE'RE TRYING TO SOLVE PROBLEMS WITHIN THE COMMUNITY, VERY RARELY DO WE SOLVE THAT WITH ARREST. 
          UH, BUT ALSO THE FACT THAT TRAFFIC STOPS ARE UP DOES SHOW THAT OUR OFFICERS ARE STILL BEING VERY PROACTIVE, RIGHT? IT'S NOT THAT THEY'RE NOT GOING OUT AND WORKING, AND THAT'S WHY ARRESTS ARE NOW, ARRESTS ARE NOW. 
          'CAUSE WE'RE FINDING OTHER WAYS TO SOLVE PROBLEMS, BUT THEY'RE STILL PROACTIVELY ENFORCING THE LAW AND FINDING WAYS TO, UH, MAKE SURE THAT THE COMMUNITY IS SAFE. 
          AND THE REPORTS, UH, GOING DOWN JUST SLIGHTLY. 
          SOME OF THAT COULD BE TIED TO CALLS FOR SERVICE BEING DECREASED. 
          BUT SOME OF IT ALSO IS THE ONLINE REPORTING PORTAL GOING LIVE. 
          AND WE WERE NOT PHYSICALLY HAVING TO GO AND WRITE AS MANY REPORTS BECAUSE SOME OF THAT WAS BEING DONE, UH, THROUGH, ON OUR CID SIDE, OUR INVESTIGATIONS CASES, UH, AS YOU MIGHT EXPECT, IF, IF ARRESTS ARE DOWN AND SOME OTHER THINGS, OUR, UH, ACTUAL ASSIGNED CASES WENT DOWN, UH, PRETTY SUBSTANTIALLY. 
          ALMOST 17%. 
          UM, CASES CLEARED, CASES SUSPENDED, UH, CASES CLEARED MEANS EITHER WE SOLVED IT, WE ARRESTED SOMEBODY, WE CHARGED 'EM, OR WE FOUND OUT THAT MAYBE THE CRIME DIDN'T HAPPEN. 
          BUT WE HAVE A RESOLUTION. 
          CASE IS SUSPENDED, MEANS IT'S SUSPENDED. 
          THERE'S NO LEADS THAT WE ON DRIVE. 
          WE DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO MOVE FORWARD WITH, BUT THEY REMAIN ACTIVE. 
          IF WE WERE TO GET MORE INFORMATION, UM, THE AVERAGE DETECTIVE, UH, AND THIS KIND OF EBBS AND FLOWS BASED ON THEIR SPECIALTY, BUT THE AVERAGE DETECTIVE IS GETTING ABOUT 10 CASES A WEEK. 
          UH, SOME GET A LITTLE BIT MORE, UH, SOME GET A LITTLE BIT LESS. 
          YOUR FINANCIAL CRIME DETECTIVE IS GONNA GET A FEW LESS CASES. 
          BUT HIS ARE GENERALLY MORE COMPLEX, LONGER TERM INVESTIGATIONS THAT MAY LAST A MONTH, SOMETIMES EVEN YEARS. 
          WHEREAS A, UH, MISDEMEANOR, UH, CAPERS OR CRIMES AGAINST PERSON, DETECTIVE MAY GET 10 IN A DAY BECAUSE THEY'RE ALL CLASS C ASSAULTS. 
          THEY'RE VERY EASY TO CLEAR. 
          SO IT KIND OF DEPENDS ON THE SIZE AND COMPLEXITY OF THE CASES. 
          BUT THEY ALSO WORK, UH, TO SHARE INTELLIGENCE WITH OTHER AGENCIES. 
          OBVIOUSLY, ADDISON DOES NOT IN EXIST IN A BUBBLE. 
          SO IF WE'RE WORKING CASES QUITE OFTEN, SO ARE OTHER AGENCIES A BIG CHUNK OF WHAT OUR DETECTIVES DO AS WELL AS OUR PROFESSIONAL STAFF. 
          UM, ONE THING TO NOTE WITH ALL OF THE, UM, VEHICLE THEFTS THAT WE DID, WE DID, UH, RECOVER 91 VEHICLES LAST YEAR AS WELL. 
          THAT, THAT'S A BIG NUMBER. 
          AND THEN PROMISE, THIS IS THE LAST SLIDE ON THE STA BUT THIS IS JUST A GIANT OVERVIEW OF THE OVERALL CRIME RATE. 
          UH, FOR THE LAST THREE, UM, THREE, FOUR YEARS SINCE WE SWITCHED TO THE DIVERS SYSTEM, WHICH WAS AN FBI MANDATE, UH, THE OVERALL CRIME RATE ACTUALLY DECREASED 9.4%. 
          SO EVEN WITH SOME OF THE SPIKES THAT WE SAW IN VEHICLE THEFT, NEARLY EVERY OTHER CATEGORY WAS DOWN. 
          AND CRIME AS A WHOLE, UH, WENT DOWN, UH, JUST OVER 9%. 
          THE, THE BIG THREE CATEGORIES THAT S UM, WOULD, HAS US TRACK SOCIETY CRIMES. 
          THESE ARE, THESE ARE THINGS LIKE DRIVING LAW, INTOXICATED DRUG POSSESSION, WEAPONS VIOLATIONS, THINGS THAT ARE KIND OF CRIMES AGAINST THE STATE. 
          AND THEN PROPERTY CRIMES, OBVIOUSLY THEFT, FRAUD, PROPERTY CRIMES, AND THEN PERSON CRIMES OR, YOU KNOW, ASSAULTS AND ROBBERIES AND, AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE. 
          BUT OVERALL, THOSE NUMBERS, UM,  AGAIN, THIS IS THE, THE BIG DEEPER DIVE NUMBERS. 
          DON'T WORRY TOO MUCH ABOUT PERCENTAGES, BECAUSE IF YOU ONLY HAD ONE IN ONE YEAR AND THEN THREE THE NEXT, THAT'S A BIG JUMP. 
          THAT THE NUMBERS ARE ALL OF THOSE. 
          UM, UH, ON THE, ON THE TOP LINE THERE, THE ABOUT THE, THE MURDER CHARGE, ALL OF THOSE WERE, UM, ARRESTED IN AWAI TRIAL WERE ALL RELATED TO SOME DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SITUATIONS. 
          THIS WAS NOT A, YOU KNOW, BROADER DANGER TO THE PUBLIC. 
          UM, BUT THE BIG NUMBER THAT IS THE LASER REPORT, THAT, UH, 70% INCREASE IN VEHICLE THEFTS, UH, WAS, WAS REALLY THE ONLY BIG SHIFT WE SAW IN THE YEAR. 
          BUT ONCE WE INSTITUTED SOME OF THE, UM, PROACTIVE MEASURES, WE SAW QUITE A DROP. 
          THAT WAS GREAT. 
          THE CRIME MAP UPDATE OUR WEBSITE, WE HAVE, WE HAVE BEEN STRUGGLING TO GET, UH, CLARITY FROM LEXISNEXIS AND, AND OUR MARK 43. 
          WE, WE 
          [00:35:01]
ARE, WE'RE GIVING IT ONE LAST SHOT BEFORE WE COMPLETELY, UH, JUST TO SEE IF WE CAN FIX SOME OF THIS. 
          UH, BUT THE, UM, THERE'S SOME DISCONNECT WITH THE INTEGRATION OF THE TWO SOFTWARE. 
          IT REALLY HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH US, BUT IT'S BOTH VENDORS POINTING AT EACH OTHER AND SAYING IT'S THE OTHER'S FAULT. 
          IT'S A FREE SERVICE. 
          SO AMOUNT OF EFFORT PUT INTO SOLVING THE PROBLEM IS COMPARABLE TO WHAT WE PAY FOR IT. 
          . 
          UH, WE'RE PURSUING SOME OTHER ALTERNATIVES. 
          WE THINK WE HAVE SOME GOOD ALTERNATIVES INTO INSIDE AND USING SOME MORE GIS SOFTWARE. 
          UH, BUT WE'VE GOTTA MAKE SURE THAT THAT WORKS. 
          AND IT DOESN'T, IT DOESN'T, UH, HAVE OTHER UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES. 
          BUT WE'RE TALKING, THIS IS ONE OF OUR TOP PRIORITIES FOR THE SPRING. 
          SO WE WANNA HAVE SOMETHING THAT IS PUBLIC FACING, UH, BY THIS SUMMER IN THE NEXT FEW MONTHS. 
          'CAUSE IT'S BEEN FAR TOO LONG. 
          UH, AND I THINK SOME OF OUR, SOME OF OUR, AS WE DOVE INTO WHAT HAPPENED, WE HAD A, A RETIREMENT, UH, IN THE IT DEPARTMENT THAT I THINK THIS WAS ONE OF HIS BIG PROJECTS. 
          AND THEN THAT THEY WEREN'T EMAILING THE CORRECT PEOPLE BECAUSE YOU WERE EMAILING SOMEBODY WHO ONLY WORKED HERE. 
          SO, BUT WE, THIS IS THE TOP PRIORITY FOR US TO GET SOMETHING SO PEOPLE CAN DIGEST WHAT'S GOING ON TO THEM. 
          UH, ANOTHER BIG INITIATIVE FOR US THIS YEAR WAS, WAS GETTING BACK OUT IN THE COMMUNITY AND RE-ENGAGING AS IN, IN A BROADER SENSE. 
          UH, WE CONTINUE TO DO SEVERAL OF OUR, UH, COMMUNITY EVENTS AT THE ATHLETIC CLUB. 
          UH, IN FACT, I TAUGHT ONE OF THOSE, THE, THE ACTIVE SHOOTER CLASS. 
          WE HAD A GREAT TURNOUT THERE. 
          UM, WE ALSO DID SEVERAL FIRSTS THIS YEAR. 
          OUR, UH, NATIONAL PRESCRIPTION DRUG TAKEBACK EVENT WAS THE FIRST TIME WE'D EVER BEEN ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN THAT. 
          AND STAFF THAT IT WAS AT THE ATHLETIC CLUB HAD PEOPLE COME. 
          AND I THINK WE SOLD TWO BOXES AND WE WERE ABLE TO TAKE BACK TO THE DEA AND HAVE THEM RESPONSIBLY DESTROYED ANOTHER, THE NATIONAL NIGHT OUT, WHICH WAS NOT OUR EVENT, BUT TOWN EVENT, THAT THAT WAS A GREAT, GREAT EVENT THAT WE ALL PARTICIPATED IN. 
          IT WAS AWESOME TO SEE EVERYBODY OUT THERE, FAMILIES, KIDS ESPECIALLY, UH, PARTICULAR, THAT EVENT. 
          IT WAS INTERESTING THAT I, I WAS REALLY ENJOYING SEEING PEOPLE THAT WE DON'T NORMALLY SEE AT SOME OF THE COMMUNITY EVENTS. 
          UH, ESPECIALLY THE FAMILIES AND THE KIDS. 
          UH, THE YOUNGER, THE YOUNGER FOLKS THAT AREN'T MAYBE EXCITED ABOUT HEARING ABOUT STATISTICS, UH, BUT THEY'VE COME UP TO THAT. 
          SO IT'S REALLY GREAT TO SEE A DIFFERENT, UH, DIFFERENT GROUP. 
          UH, THE OTHER THING WAS AN INCREASED FOCUS FOR OUR PATROL FOLKS IS BEING MUCH MORE VISIBLE IN THE NEIGHBORHOODS, WHETHER THAT JUST BE DRIVING AROUND AND TALKING TO PEOPLE, BUT ALSO TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT. 
          AND A COUPLE OF STOP SIGNS THAT WE GET A LOT OF, UH, REQUESTS ABOUT, UH, THE GRAND AND BELT BAY. 
          SO IF YOU'RE WATCHING ONLINE, KEEP STOP THAT. 
          STOP SIGN . 
          UH, BUT WE'VE GOT A LOT OF REALLY GOOD FEEDBACK O ON THAT AND A LOT OF GOOD INTERACTION FROM OUR OFFICERS AND TRY TO EXPLAIN TO THEM, UH, YOU KNOW, ONE, ONE OF THE THINGS I I I TELL OUR FOLKS IS, I WANT YOU TO PATROL EMPLOYEE AS IF YOUR FAMILY LIVES IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD, RIGHT? GIVE THE LEVEL OF SERVICE THAT YOU WANT, SOMEONE GIVING YOUR FAMILY, YOUR WIFE, HUSBAND, BROTHER, SISTER, BROTHER, FATHER. 
          LET'S TREAT OUR NEIGHBORHOODS LIKE OUR FAMILY LIVES. 
          UH, IF WE DO THAT, WE'RE GONNA DO THE RIGHT THINGS. 
          UH, MOVING, LOOKING AHEAD, WE'VE GOT, UH, OBVIOUSLY A BIG THING GOING ON FOR US IS, UH, WE'VE GOTTA HIRE A NEW POLICE CHIEF. 
          UM, SO OBVIOUSLY I HAVE A VESTED INTEREST IN THAT . 
          UH, BUT THAT'S COMING UP IN THE NEXT MONTH OR TWO. 
          WE HAVE A LOT OF, UH, INTERVIEWS AND THINGS LIKE THAT. 
          BUT MOVING ON FROM THAT EVEN MORE, UH, RECRUIT, RETAIN, AND TRAIN. 
          UH, WE'VE GOT A NUMBER OF EFFORTS WE'RE PUSHING OFF ON THE RECRUITING SIDE. 
          ONE OF THE BIGGEST THINGS, UM, UH, THAT'S HELPED US IN THIS LAST SEVERAL MONTHS OF, OF BEING MORE COMPETITIVE IS THIS IS OUR NEW PAY SCALE. 
          UH, WHICH COUNCIL, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR, FOR, FOR MAKING THAT HAPPEN BECAUSE, UM, OBVIOUSLY THAT'S ONE OF THE BIGGEST THINGS THAT WE HAVE TO ACCOMMODATE. 
          THEY HAVE TO BE COMPETITIVE IN THE MARKET. 
          AND THAT'S THE FIRST THING YOU LOOK FOR. 
          UM, ANOTHER COUPLE OF AREAS WHERE I'M PROUD OF BECAUSE I'VE SEEN OUR STAFFER PUSH THESE STUDENTS FORWARD. 
          THE, UH, PROMOTIONAL SUPPORT, UM, PROGRAM AND TIED INTO MENTAL HEALTH AND WELLNESS RESOURCES. 
          WE STARTED A NEW PROGRAM WITH OUR MENTAL HEALTH, UM, WELLNESS PROVIDER FOR NEWLY PROMOTED, UM, UH, SUPERVISORS WHERE THEY GET SOME ONE-ON-ONE OR PERIOD OF MONTHS AND GET EXECUTIVE COACHING AND STRESS MANAGEMENT TIPS. 
          UH, THERE'S SOME 360 EVALS THEY GET FROM THE PEOPLE THEY SUPERVISE THROUGHOUT THE COURSE OF THIS TO HELP THEM, YOU KNOW, IDENTIFY BLIND SPOTS, MANAGE THE STRESS OF GOING FROM PEER TO SUPERVISOR AND REALLY EQUIP THEM TO BE SUCCESSFUL. 
          UM, AND, AND, AND THEN ALSO GIVING OUR, OUR STAFF THE OPPORTUNITY TO GIVE THAT INPUT. 
          YOU DON'T, YOU DON'T OFTEN GET TO TELL YOUR BOSS WHAT THEY'RE DOING WELL OR NOT. 
          UM, YOU COULD DO THIS IN A SAFE WAY. 
          THAT'S ANONYMOUS. 
          ANOTHER MAJOR, UM, UH, INITIATIVE IS OUR PUBLIC SAFETY, PUBLIC SAFETY STAFFING ASSESSMENT. 
          WE'RE, WE'RE REALLY GETTING ABOUT A THIRD OF THE WAY THROUGH WITH, WITH MATRIX CONSULTING. 
          JUST FINISHED UP WITH A BIG MILESTONE WITH SOME INVENTORY SURVEYS. 
          I'M VERY PROUD OF WHERE THAT'S HEADED. 
          VERY EXCITED TO SEE WHAT THE RECOMMENDATIONS ARE. 
          UH, OBVIOUSLY WE'LL CONTINUE TO WORK WITH OUR TOWN STAFF, CITY HALL, UH, MANAGERS, UH, ABOUT OUR, OUR FACILITY NEEDS BOTH IN THE NEAR TERM AND THE LONG TERM. 
          UM, WE'VE GOT SOME NEAR TERM NEEDS AND SPACE AND SOME REHAB THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE. 
          OBVIOUSLY THERE'S SOME LONG, LONG-TERM SUBMISSIONS THAT, THAT, UH, ARE FOR A DIFFERENT CONVERSATION. 
          UH, ANOTHER, UH, AREA OF, OF, OF FOCUS FOR US IS GONNA BE TO MAKE SURE THAT WE CONTINUE TO, UM, PARTNER WITH METROCREST AND SOME 
          [00:40:01]
OF OUR OTHER OUTSIDE, UH, PARTNERS. 
          THE, THE NGOS, THE NONPROFITS, UM, AND, AND REALLY, AND EVEN WITHIN THE TOWN, UM, TAKING THE HOLISTIC TOWN LEVEL APPROACH, THAT IT'S NOT JUST A POLICE PROBLEM, IT'S NOT JUST A STREETS PROBLEM, IT'S ALL OF US AND CITIZENS BUSINESSES AS WELL, WORKING TOGETHER, COMING UP WITH, UH, HOLISTIC STRATEGY TO, TO SERVE THESE INDIVIDUALS AND, UH, MAKE SURE THAT THAT FOLKS THAT LIVE HERE AND TRAVEL HERE AND DO BUSINESS HERE ARE NOT IMPACTED NEGATIVELY. 
          UM, WE'RE FINISHING UP VERY EXCITED TO SAY IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME COMING A LONG PROJECT. 
          IT'S KIND OF ONE OF THOSE, I GUESS, ADMINISTRATIVE NERD, UH, PROJECTS THAT I'M VERY HAPPY ABOUT IS OUR, OUR , UM, ON POLICY SOFTWARE. 
          OVERALL, OUR LIEUTENANTS HAVE BEEN WORKING TIRELESSLY. 
          IT'S HOURS AND HOURS AND HOURS OF REINVENTING AND UPDATING AND STANDARDIZING OUR INTERNAL POLICIES. 
          UH, WE HAVE, WE HAD TRIED TO MANAGE THAT OURSELVES FOR YEARS. 
          THE 200 PLUS PAGE DOCUMENT, AND WE WERE FAILING PRETTY MISERABLY AT IT. 
          THE POLICY ITSELF WAS, IT HAD ALL THE THINGS IN IT THAT NEED TO BE, BUT IT WAS NOT WELL ORGANIZED. 
          IT WAS A PATCHWORK OF, OF DIFFERENT VOICES AND DIFFERENT, YOU KNOW, SPECIAL ORDERS AND THINGS. 
          BUT THIS LEXIPOL PROJECT PROJECT IS GONNA HAVE A STANDARD ONE VOICE. 
          IT'S UPDATED, VETTED WITH BEST PRACTICES, LEGAL REVIEW, ALL THESE THINGS. 
          VERY EXCITED ABOUT THAT. 
          WE'RE ALSO TRYING TO FINISH OUT, WE'VE, WE'VE STARTED TO TAKE POSSESSIONS OF OUR NEW PATROL VEHICLES, UH, THE DODGE DURANG. 
          WE WILL BE GETTING OFF TO THE UPFITTERS VERY SOON TO GET ALL THE EQUIPMENT INSTALLED, AND THEN WE'LL GET GRAPHICS INSTALLED. 
          RIGHT NOW THEY'RE JUST PLAIN WIDE S UH, WE'RE EXCITED ABOUT THAT 'CAUSE IT'S TIME. 
          THE TAHOES THAT WE HAVE KIND OF SERVED THEM THEIR TIME, THEIR THEIR TIME, AND THEY ARE STRUGGLING TO, UH, TO STAY IN SERVICE NOW. 
          IT'S THE FOURTH SUMMER THEY'VE BEEN IN SERVICE. 
          AND THAT BECOMES A TOUGH, UH, TOUGH ASK. 
          UH, AND THEN ONCE WE GET WRAPPED UP, KIND OF, OR WE GET CLOSER TO THE END, OUR LEXIPOL PROCESS PROJECT, WE'RE GONNA LOOK AT, WE HAVE A VENDOR EVER IDENTIFIED. 
          WE'RE GONNA LAUNCH OUR PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE. 
          NO, WE'VE GOT SOME PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE THAT IS GONNA HELP US INTERNALLY, UH, STREAMLINE TRAINING REQUESTS, USE OF FORCE REPORTS, PURSUITS, DISCIPLINARY ISSUES. 
          'CAUSE RIGHT NOW WHAT WE DO IS DIGITAL, BUT IT'S STORED IN PDFS AND IT'S IN DIFFERENT FOLDERS. 
          AND IT'S HARD TO, UM, KEEP IT ALL CONSISTENT SO THAT WE'LL HAVE THAT SOFTWARE, UM, COMING ON BOARD IN THE NEXT PROBABLY SIX MONTHS. 
          THAT'S REALLY GONNA HELP OUR, OUR STAFF AND OUR SUPERVISORS TREMENDOUSLY, UH, BETTER MANAGE THEIR PEOPLE AND KNOW EXACTLY WHAT'S GOING ON WITH THEIR PEOPLE, UM, AND WHAT THEY NEED TO DO TRAINING WISE AND EVALS AND ALL THE DIFFERENT THINGS ELSE IN THEIR END. 
          AND THEN, OBVIOUSLY ONE OF OUR BIG, UH, PROJECTS TOO, AS I MENTIONED EARLIER, IS, UH, TO FIND APPROPRIATELY PRICED SOFTWARE OPTION TO REPLACE THE COMMUNITY CRIME MAPS IF WE CAN'T GET THAT, UH, TO WORK IN SOME FASHION. 
          SO THAT LOVE TO TAKE. 
          ANY QUESTIONS? QUESTIONS FOR THE CHIEF? UH, I DON'T HAVE A QUESTION, BUT I HAVE A COMMENT. 
          I'M REALLY, I'M REALLY EXCITED AND HAPPY TO HEAR ABOUT, UH, UH, THE LESSENING OF THE VEHICLE VEHICLE THEFTS. 
          IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU, YOU ALL GOT A HANDLE, A MUCH BETTER HANDLE ON THAT AND CURBING, CURBING THAT. 
          SO GREAT NEWS. 
          NO, IT IS APPRECIATED. 
          IT'S, OUR STAFF DID A TREMENDOUS JOB. 
          WE JUST TOOK THEIR RECOMMENDATIONS AND WE'VE GOT A FEW OTHERS. 
          WE'RE WORKING ON KIND MORE LONG TERM SOLUTIONS. 
          'CAUSE OBVIOUSLY BEING REACTIVE TO THE MOMENT IS ONE THING, BUT HAVING THEM TRY TO SET UP SOME LONG TERM SOLUTIONS WITH PROPERTY OWNERS AND WORK WITH THEM WITHOUT CAMERAS, PATROLS, INSTALLING THEIR OWN READERS, THINGS LIKE THAT, LONGER TERM, UM, PLANS. 
          OUR STAFF DID A TREMENDOUS JOB. 
          GOOD. 
          THANK YOU. 
          CHIEF QUESTIONS? I DO, MAYOR? YES, SIR. 
          CHIEF, UH, THANK YOU FOR THE UPDATE. 
          I, UH, WANT TO ASK YOU A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE COMMUNITY CRIME MAP UPDATE. 
          SURE. 
          UH, NOW'S YOUR CHANCE TO, UH, SPEAK DIRECTLY TO PEOPLE WHO ARE WATCHING. 
          UNDERSTANDING THAT THERE MAY BE A BIT OF A CHALLENGE WITH THE, UH, UPDATING THE, A CURRENT CRIME MAP. 
          WHAT IS IT THAT YOU SEND TO A, A, A, UH, RESIDENT AND TAKE YOU A CALL AND SAY, ASK YOU ABOUT THESE NUMBERS THAT THEY'RE SEEING? WHAT, WHAT, WHAT KIND OF RESPONSE ARE YOU GIVING THEM AS FAR AS WHAT KIND AS TO THE VERO VEROCITY OF THE INFORMATION ON THAT, ON THAT CRIME MAP? OH, COMMUNITY. 
          OKAY. 
          I'M SORRY. 
          I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND. 
          UM, YEAH, COMMUNITY CRIME MAPS, IT, IT SERVED A SINGULAR PURPOSE AND IT, AND IT CAPTURED A SNAPSHOT OF WHAT A CALL WAS INITIALLY DISPATCHED AS THAT NIGHT, WHAT IT LACKED AND WHAT WE ALWAYS STRUGGLED WITH. 
          AND THERE REALLY WAS NO WAY AROUND IT BECAUSE THE TECHNOLOGY DOESN'T ALLOW FOR HIM WAS IT LACKED CONTEXT. 
          AND IT ALSO LACKED THE FEEDBACK LOOP OF IF SOMEONE CALLS 9 1 1 AND WHAT THEY SAY TO THE DISPATCHER, THE DISPATCHER THINKS THIS SOUNDS LIKE A ROBBERY, THEY'RE GOING TO DISPATCH A ROBBERY. 
          NOW, WHEN WE GET THERE, WE MIGHT FIND OUT THAT IT WAS ACTUALLY JUST AN 
          [00:45:01]
ARGUMENT OVER WHO DIDN'T PAY THE TAB AT A RESTAURANT. 
          AND IT MIGHT BE EFFECTIVE SERVICE, IT MIGHT BE NOTHING MORE THAN AN ARGUMENT, IT'S A CIVIL MATTER. 
          IT MIGHT BE NOTHING. 
          IT MIGHT BE A ROBBERY. 
          SURE. 
          BUT OFTENTIMES IT'S NOT. 
          THE PROBLEM IS THAT WHEN IT POPULATES ON COMMUNITY CRIME APPS, IT'S GONNA SHOW A DOT AND SAY A ROBBERY HAPPENED HERE BECAUSE THE CAD DATA, THE COMPUTER DISPATCH DATA IS INTEGRATED, SENDING OVER, IT'S EXPORTING TO COMMUNITY CRIME MAP ONE TIME, ONE WAY. 
          AND SO IT GOES OVER AS A ROBBERY. 
          IT DOESN'T GET A DISPOSITION, IT DOESN'T GET FEEDBACK, IT DOESN'T GET ANYTHING ON THE BACK END. 
          SO IT'S GONNA SHOW UP AS A ROBBERY, EVEN THOUGH MORE OFTEN THAN NOT, IT WASN'T ROBBERY. 
          UH, THAT'S THE BIGGEST, SORRY. 
          NOW IT DOES SHOW IT'S, IT COULD BE GOOD FOR SOME THINGS, TRAFFIC COLLISIONS, THINGS LIKE THAT. 
          UM, DON'T TEND TO BE SOMETHING ELSE, RIGHT. 
          THEY TEND TO BE KIND OF WHAT THEY ARE. 
          BUT IT'S A GOOD SNAPSHOT OF MAYBE HOW BUSY A POLICE DEPARTMENT IS WITH JUST A TOTAL NUMBER OF CALLS. 
          BUT USING IT AS A CRIME ANALYSIS TOOL CAN BE REALLY PROBLEMATIC BECAUSE THE DATA IS USUALLY, IT'S, IT'S PARTIALLY CORRECT. 
          IT'S ONLY CORRECT ON THE FRONT END. 
          SO THAT'S THE, THAT'S THE RIGHT, SURE. 
          THAT'S GOOD TO DO. 
          AND IT'S GOOD. 
          IT'S GOOD TO KNOW THAT YOU'RE ACTIVELY PURSUING AN ALTERNATIVE FOR THAT PLATFORM. 
          APPRECI. 
          APPRECIATE THAT VERY MUCH. 
          UH, ANOTHER ITEM I'D LIKE TO BRING UP WITH MY COUNCIL MEMBERS HERE IS, UH, FACILITY NEEDS. 
          THEY ARE CERTAINLY AT THE TOP OF MIND, UH, WITH THE COUNCIL HERE THAT I BELIEVE HAVE CONVERSATIONS THAT I HAVE, HAVE HAD. 
          SO, UH, LOOKING FORWARD TO, UM, ADVANCING CONVERSATIONS ON THAT. 
          I WANNA COMMENT ON THAT. 
          ON MAY 28TH, SECOND MEETING OF MAY, WE ARE GONNA BRING BACK FACILITIES DISCUSSION WHERE WE'LL HAVE SOME, SOME CONCRETE STEPS FOR POLICE AND OTHER, UH, TOWN FACILITIES. 
          REALLY A, A CONTINUATION OF THE CONVERSATIONS WE'VE HAD OVER THE PAST NUMBER OF YEARS. 
          BUT POLICE STATION, AS WE TALKED ABOUT PREVIOUSLY, IS THE NUMBER ONE PRIORITY WHEN WE LOOK AT OUR FACILITY. 
          SO LOOK FORWARD TO THAT DISCUSSION. 
          THANK YOU. 
          THANK YOU. 
          THANK YOU. 
          THE, UH, LAST COMMENT, THANK YOU FOR, UM, UM, SOME MORE ATTENTION THAT'S BEING PLACED ON, UH, THE RUNNING OF STOP SIGNS. 
          APPRECIATE THAT EVERYONE IN THE COMMUNITY IS, IS HAPPY TO HEAR THAT AND, UH, LOOK FORWARD TO THAT, UH, INCREASING, AS IT WERE. 
          I CAN PLAY OFF OF THAT LAST COMMENT THAT I SAW THAT TRAFFIC STOPS WERE UP 12%, ALMOST 10,000 STOPS. 
          WHAT, WHAT DO YOU THINK IS, IN A SENSE, WHEN YOU HAVE 9,300 OR 90, 9600 STOPS? ARE WE SEEING A BIGGER PERCENTAGE IN ACTUAL TICKETS? IS IT REGISTRATION TAGS ARE OUT? IS IT PAPER PLATES NOW THAT IT'S NOW STATE LAW? WHAT DO YOU ATTRIBUTE THAT? OBVIOUSLY RESIDENT RESIDENT AND BUSINESS INCREASE IS BACK, BUT ARE WE ACTUALLY SEEING AN UP UPTICK IN SPEEDING TICKETS? WHAT, WHAT DOES THE, WELL, I'D HAVE TO DIVE INTO EXACTLY WHAT WE'RE ISSUING CITATIONS FOR. 
          I KNOW WE HAVE, UM, THERE, IT'S, THERE ARE A FEW OFFICERS WHO ARE VERY FOCUSED ON THE PAPER TAG AND, AND THE FRAUDULENT TAG ISSUE. 
          AND I KNOW THAT THEY MAKE A LOT OF STOPS FOR PAPER TAGS, UH, SO THEY CAN FOLLOW. 
          BUT A LOT OF IT IS, IT'S, IT'S A WIDE MIXTURE OF ALL DIFFERENT VIOLATIONS, RIGHT? SOME OF IT IS FUELED BY BEING MORE RESPONSIVE TO SOME OF THE CONCERNS FROM THE NEIGHBORHOOD ON THE PROTON. 
          UH, STOP SIGN, THE LARAY, THE BELT BY STOP SIGN, THE SPEEDERS ALONG THE FLOOR, AND SOME OF THE DIFFERENT AREAS THAT WE HAVE GOTTEN, UH, COMPLAINTS ABOUT OR CONCERNED ABOUT. 
          AND SO WE'VE BEEN BEEN ABLE TO RENEW FOCUS ON THOSE. 
          AND PART OF THAT IS THAT RENEW FOCUS OF BEING IN THE NEIGHBORHOODS. 
          IT ALSO LENDS ITSELF TO BEING IN THE AREAS WHERE THOSE VIOLATIONS ARE HAPPENING. 
          UM, BUT SOME OF IT TOO IS JUST OVERALL THAT DECREASE IN CALLS BREEDS UP THAT DISCRETIONARY PATROL TIME WHERE A PROACTIVE OFFICER CAN GO OUT AND LOOK FOR, YOU KNOW, TRAFFIC VIOLATIONS. 
          FROM A STANDPOINT OF WE WANT TO DECREASE TRAFFIC COLLISIONS AND INCREASE TRAFFIC AND PEDESTRIAN SAFETY. 
          THAT'S WHY WE DO TRAFFIC STOPS. 
          UM, CONTRARY TO POPULAR BELIEF, WE DON'T DO IT TO GENERATE REVENUE. 
          UH, THAT HAS ABSOLUTELY NEVER BEEN ANYTHING WE'VE, YOU KNOW, THAT'S NEVER A CONCERN OF OURS. 
          OURS, WE USE THE DATA FROM WHERE WE HAVE THE MOST CRASHES, WHERE WE HAVE THE MOST, UM, ISSUES FROM A VIOLATION PERSPECTIVE. 
          AND THAT DICTATES WHERE WE DO . 
          UM, AT NIGHT IT'S A LITTLE DIFFERENT 'CAUSE THE STOPS MAY BE MORE INVESTIGATIVE IN NATURE, RIGHT? AND SO A PROACTIVE OFFICER, THESE ARE VEHICLE IN AN AREA. 
          IT SHOULDN'T BE AT THE TIME OF NIGHT, IT SHOULDN'T BE. 
          AND MAYBE IT'S GETTING PULLED OVER FOR A TRAFFIC VIOLATION, BUT REALLY I WANT TALK TO YOU ABOUT, UM, WHY YOU'RE BACK THERE PARKED, WHY YOU HAVE, YOU KNOW, CAT LIFT CONVERTERS IN YOUR TRUNK. 
          RIGHT? SO PERFECT ANSWER. 
          SO THANK YOU FOR THAT. 
          AND BACK TO GQS POINT YOU BROUGHT UP EARLIER WITH, WHEN WE HAVE NEIGHBORS THAT STOP US AND ASK US ABOUT, THE PERCEPTION IS THAT ALL APARTMENTS BRING CRIME, AND THE CRIME HAS PROVEN. 
          SO WITH OBVIOUSLY LEXINEXIS, WE KNEW WHEN CHIEF SPENCER WAS HERE, THERE'S SOME FALSE NARRATIVE TO THAT IN ANSWERING THOSE QUESTIONS. 
          DO WE STILL SEE THOSE CRIME 
          [00:50:01]
MAPS STILL AS HOT RED? ARE THEY GETTING LESS RED? ARE WE SEEING ANY TREND CHANGE WITHIN THAT? I, I WOULDN'T SAY THERE'S MUCH OF A, THERE'S NOT A TREND CHANGE. 
          UH, ONE OF THE THINGS WE HAVE TO BE CAREFUL, OBVIOUSLY COMMUNITY CRIME MAPS IS NEVER MEANT TO BE A CRIME ANALYSIS TOOL. 
          SO THAT'S PROBABLY NUMBER ONE. 
          SOME OTHER AREAS WHERE WE, WE HAD FOLKS THAT WERE DOING SOME OF THEIR OWN RESEARCH AND WERE USING SOME OUTSIDE, UM, WEBSITES THAT MAYBE WERE SUPPLYING REAL ESTATE TYPE DATA. 
          AND IN FACT, I LOOKED AT ONE OF THOSE AND IT, IT HAD A NUMBER OF MAJOR ERRORS. 
          ONE OF THOSE INCLUDED THAT IT HAD THE GALLERY AND MALL AS PART OF ADDISON. 
          AND SO FOR ME, CALCULATION STANDPOINT OF CAR BURGLARIES AND OTHER ISSUES, THAT IS A BIG CHUNK OF CRIME THAT'S NOT OURS. 
          RIGHT? UM, BUT THE REALITY IS WITH, AND THIS IS TRUE WHETHER IT'S SINGLE FAMILY HOMES, MULTI-FAMILY HOMES, HOTELS, YOU KNOW, WHERE PEOPLE GATHER, WHERE PEOPLE ARE, THERE WILL BE INCREASED IN POLICE ACTIVITY. 
          THAT'S, THAT'S JUST BECAUSE THEY'RE WITHOUT PEOPLE, WITHOUT A VICTIM, THERE'S, THERE'S NO CRIME, RIGHT? AND SO, UH, WE ARE GENERALLY GONNA, WE EXPECT TO SEE WHERE THERE ARE HIGHER CONCENTRATION OF PEOPLE, A LITTLE BIT MORE ACTIVITY ON THE AGGREGATE. 
          BUT AS WE LOOKED BEFORE IN OUR STATS LAST YEAR, WE DID SOME OF THESE MEETINGS WHERE WE KIND OF CONTROLLED FOR POPULATION. 
          THE NUMBERS ARE PRETTY COMPARABLE. 
          SINGLE FAMILY MULTIFAMILY COMMERCIALS A LITTLE HIGHER. 
          IT'S A DIFFERENT ANIMAL. 
          BUT IN THE RESIDENTIAL SIDE, THE NUMBERS ARE PRETTY ACCURATE WHEN YOU KIND OF CONTROL IT DOWN TO A, YOU KNOW, PER CAPITA PER DOOR, FOR EXAMPLE. 
          THEY'RE VERY, THEY'RE VERY COMPARABLE NUMBERS. 
          YEAH. 
          AND THAT GOES BACK TO EVEN DAVID, YOU CAN ANSWER THIS FOR US, HAVING CODE ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS NOW IN CHARGE, AND WE'RE GONNA BE SORT OF BUCKLING DOWN ON MANAGEMENT OF APARTMENTS, RIGHT. 
          IN TERMS OF THAT CODE ENFORCEMENTS, DOES THAT SORT OF GO HAND IN HAND WHEN OFFICERS COME BACK FROM APARTMENT CALLS, THEY FEEL LIKE THIS IS MORE OF A TOWN RESOURCES OPPORTUNITY? WELL, I WOULD, I WOULD TO IMPROVE, ABSOLUTELY. 
          BUT I WOULD ADD TO IT, I MEAN, YOU MENTIONED MULTIFAMILY AND, AND WE'RE TALKING ABOUT COMMERCIAL STATS THAT INCLUDES HOTELS AND MOTELS, RIGHT? AND A BIG PART OF THAT PROGRAM IS GONNA BE OUR CODE ENFORCEMENT FOR HOTELS AND MOTELS. 
          SO I DO THINK, AND CHIEF CAN CERTAINLY SPEAK TO THIS, THOSE ARE GONNA LEAD OPPORTUNITIES AS WELL TO HAVE JUST MORE PRESENCE. 
          AND OUR OFFICERS ALREADY HAVE PRESENCE IN A LOT OF THOSE PLACES. 
          BUT JUST AN ADDITIONAL PRESENCE, UM, FROM CODE ENFORCEMENT AND OTHERWISE. 
          SIR, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I, AND IT'S KIND OF I'M EXCITED ABOUT WITH OUR, OUR NEIGHBORHOOD SERVICES PROGRAM THAT'S GONNA MOVE FORWARD IS THAT REALLY FOR THE FIRST TIME, I THINK WE HAVE SOME CLEAR DIRECTION ABOUT, WE SEE THINGS THAT ARE CONCERNING IN SAY A HOTEL, WHETHER IT BE UPKEEP OF ROOM, THE HEALTH AND SAFETY OF THAT, THAT ENVIRONMENT OR EVEN JUST UPKEEP, LANDSCAPING AND SOME OF THE DEGRADATIONS WORKING DOORS. 
          YEAH. 
          DOORS, WORKING DOORS THAT DON'T WORK, STAIRWELLS THAT DON'T GET 'EM FIRED BECAUSE THAT DON'T CLOSE PROPERLY. 
          UH, WE, WE NEVER NECESSARILY HAD A GREAT PLACE TO TAKE THOSE CONCERNS, RIGHT? IT'S NOT A POLICE DEPARTMENT TYPE THING. 
          BUT NOW WE'VE, IN FACT, WE'VE ALREADY, WE'VE ALREADY SEEN SOME ISSUES. 
          WE, WE HAVE WORKED ON AND WE ASSISTED CODE ENFORCEMENT WITH THE EXECUTION OF WHAT'S CALLED ADMINISTRATIVE SEARCH WARRANT. 
          UH, IT'S A SEARCH WARRANT. 
          IT'S FOR CODE ENFORCEMENT AND HEALTH INSPECTORS TO GO IN AND SEARCH FOR VIOLATIONS OF, YOU KNOW, SOME, SOME EITHER BUILDING CODE OR HEALTH AND SAFETY AND FIRE MARSHALS. 
          UM, WE ASSISTED THEM WITH THAT PROCESS. 
          NOW WE'RE STARTING TO KIND OF BUILD A PATHWAY OF, WE GO OUT ON A CALL AND WE SEE SOMETHING CONCERNING. 
          NOW WE HAVE A PLACE TO TAKE THAT CONCERN IN A MANNER IN WHICH TO ADDRESS IT, AS OPPOSED TO US JUST GOING, WELL, THAT'S JUST HOW THIS PLACE IS AND THAT'S, WE CAN'T HELP IT. 
          YOU KNOW? SO THAT'S, THAT'S A REALLY EXCITING PART MOVING FORWARD. 
          WE ACTUALLY HAVE SOLUTIONS. 
          THANK YOU. 
          THANK YOU. 
          YEAH. 
          AND I MEAN, AND THE ONLY OTHER STAT THAT SORT OF JUMPED OFF THE MAP, IT WASN'T EVEN, IT WAS AND WASN'T WAS KIDNAPPINGS IS THAT'S SORT OF A LITTLE BIT SURPRISING, BUT IS THAT, YEAH. 
          SO UNDER THE, THE WAY THAT THE, THOSE STATS, IT'S, THEY'RE NOT TRUE KIDNAPPINGS. 
          THEY'RE NOT WHAT YOU THINK OF AS KIDNAPPINGS. 
          THAT'S WHY I'M ASKING TO CLARIFY. 
          YES, YES. 
          NO, I APPRECIATE IT. 
          THE, UNDER THE, UH, FBI'S DEFINITION, THEY HAVE KIND OF HEADERS AND THEY, IT, IT GROUPS MINOR OFFENSES, LESSER OFFENSE UNDER THAT IN TEXAS, WHAT, WHAT CONSTITUTES THOSE IS GONNA BE WHAT'S CALLED UNLAWFUL RESTRAINT. 
          SO IF YOU AND I ARE IN AN APARTMENT AND WE'RE HAVING AN ARGUMENT AND YOU DECIDE YOU WANT TO LEAVE, AND I STAND IN FRONT OF THE DOOR AND SAY, YOU'RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE UNTIL WE SORT THIS OUT, AND I MAYBE THREATEN YOU AND DON'T LET YOU LEAVE, THAT'S UNLAWFUL RESTRAINT. 
          IF YOU REPORT THAT TO THE POLICE LATER, IT'S GONNA FALL INTO THAT KIDNAPPING. 
          SO THAT GOES BACK TO THOSE STATS DON'T GO ALL THE WAY DOWN THE LINE TO CLEAR, CLEAR, CLEARLY STATE THAT THIS WASN'T A KIDNAPPING. 
          CORRECT. 
          THE STATS AREN'T ACCURATE. 
          'CAUSE I WAS ON A RIDE ALONG, UM, WITHIN ONE OF THOSE INSTANCES THAT HAD HAPPENED, SOMEBODY CALLED 9 1 1, THEY'RE STAYING IN THE FRONT SEATS AND IT ENDS UP BEING THE LITTLE BOYFRIEND GIRLFRIEND ARGUMENT, SIMPLE MATTER, SAY THE VAST MAJORITY OF OUR UNLAWFUL RESTRAIN OFFENSES FOLLOWED IN THAT DOMESTIC, UH, DISTURBANCE CATEGORY WHERE IT'S HUSBAND, WIFE, B, AND GIRLFRIEND, YOU KNOW, PARTNERS AND ONE WON'T LET THE OTHER LEAVE. 
          OR THEY TAKE THEIR PHONE AND DON'T LET THEM. 
          OKAY. 
          BUT THAT'S THE, THAT'S A, THAT'S THE BIGGEST MISCONCEPTION IS THE PERCEPTION IS THERE'S 17 KIDNAPPINGS PEOPLE ARE MISSING FROM MADISON. 
          RIGHT. 
          RIGHT. 
          THEY WERE NOT. 
          [00:55:01]
WERE NOT, AND I THINK THAT'S UNFAIRLY HOW WE'RE BEING ASKED OR QUESTIONED ABOUT OUR CRIME STATS IS WE KNOW THAT, BUT WE DON'T KNOW THAT THIS IS OUR WAY OF SORT OF TRANSLATING THAT MESSAGE THROUGH OUR NEWSLETTERS. 
          THROUGH WHAT? SO THAT PEOPLE DON'T THINK PEOPLE ARE, ARE KIDNAPPED OUT OF MADISON. 
          WELL, I AS AN EXAMPLE, I THINK, I THINK LAST YEAR WAS A GOOD STEP TOWARD THAT. 
          I MEAN, WE HAD THE TOWN HALL WHERE WE HAD THESE CONVERSATIONS. 
          WE HAD FOLLOW UP CONVERSATIONS AS WELL. 
          I THINK THAT HELPED TO GIVE CERTAINLY CHIEF VINCENT CONSENT AND THE, AND THE TEAM KIND OF, I THINK A LOT OF THE CONVERSATION WE'VE HAD TODAY HAS BEEN ARTICULATED AND BEEN INFLUENCED BY THOSE CONVERSATIONS OVER THE PAST YEAR. 
          SO I THINK THIS NEXT STEP AS WE KIND OF WORK ON WHAT IS THE BEST MAP AND HOW CAN WE GET THE STATS IN THE BEST MANNER, THE OFFICER OF THAT WILL BE, WE CONTINUE TO HONE THE BEST WAY TO, TO TELL THE, AND IT'S NOT MESSAGING, IT'S JUST TELLING THE TRUTH TO SAY, HERE'S WHAT, HERE'S WHAT IT IS. 
          AND, BUT GIVING SOME CONTEXT, AND I THINK CHIEF BITS GAVE HIM GREAT CONTEXT. 
          SO WHEN YOU HAVE MORE PEOPLE, YOU'RE GONNA HAVE MORE POLICE ACTIVITY. 
          BUT EVEN THEN, IT DOESN'T MEAN THAT IT'S WHEN YOU CAN VIOLENT. 
          RIGHT. 
          IT'S NOT ALL BAD, SO BAD. 
          SUBTLE. 
          YEAH. 
          LOTS VIOLATION. 
          SO TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION, YES, I THINK, UM, I THINK WE'RE MAKING PROGRESS ON THAT AND WE'LL CONTINUE TO LOOK FOR THE BEST WAYS TO GET TO GET IT OUT THERE. 
          ABSOLUTELY. 
          THANKS CHIEF. 
          I KNOW THAT CAROL WILL BE HAPPY TO DO A CRIME STATISTICS CLASS FOR EVERYONE. 
          . 
          THAT'S NOT A BAD IDEA. 
          I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY TAKERS WE WOULD GET. 
          , GOOD LUCK IN THE INTERVIEW PROCESS TOO. 
          THANK YOU FOR ROOT FOR YOU. 
          GREAT REPORT. 
          THANK YOU FOR ALL THE INFORMATION. 
          YOU, YOU GUYS DID A GREAT JOB PUTTING THAT TOGETHER. 
          UM, COUPLE THINGS, UM, ON LEXINEXIS ON THE COMMUNITY CRIME MAP, UM, THAT LINK'S BROKE, RIGHT? THERE'S NO DATA THERE. 
          CORRECT. 
          OKAY. 
          SO, AND, AND YOU SAID YOU WERE, YOU'RE STILL WORKING ON THAT. 
          WE'RE REVISITING IT BECAUSE IT KIND OF TWO PART NUMBER ONE, I I, I, YOU KNOW, WHEN I TOOK OVER AS INTERIM CHIEF, THERE WAS SOME KIND OF FACT FINDING ON WHAT, WHAT WENT WRONG HERE. 
          'CAUSE I WASN'T INVOLVED WITH BEFORE. 
          UM, AND, AND THE ANSWERS I GOT WERE, UM, NO, NOBODY WAS SHOWING IN MARK 43 AND LEXISNEXIS BOTH SAYING IT WAS THE OTHER PERSON'S INTEGRATION, THEIR SOFTWARE. 
          UM, BUT, BUT ONE THING THAT WHEN I LOOK AT THEIR, THE LEXISNEXIS PRODUCT, WE HAVE A NEIGHBORING CITY WHO IS A MARK 43 CUSTOMER, AND THEIR DATA IS ON THERE. 
          SO WHAT I'M PART OF IT IS I JUST WANT TO KNOW WHY IT DIDN'T WORK. 
          I WANT AN ANSWER. 
          SO THAT'S KIND OF STEP ONE. 
          UM, IF, UH, WE CAN GET IT WORKING, THERE IS A LAW ENFORCEMENT SIDE TO THAT, UH, DATA SHARING THAT IS VALUABLE TO US WITH OTHER AGENCIES. 
          MM-HMM. 
          . 
          UM, BUT IT'S NOT A PUBLIC FACING COMPONENT, RIGHT? SO EVEN IF WE CHOOSE TO NOT MOVE FORWARD, THERE'S A PUBLIC FACING, UH, SERVICE. 
          THERE IS VALUE ON THE, THE LAW ENFORCEMENT ONLY PART OF IT, RIGHT? SO WE CAN BETTER SHARE DATA ON THAT SIDE. 
          SO THERE IS SOME VALUE IN REPAIRING THE LINK. 
          UH, WE MAY NOT LOVE IT ENOUGH TO PUT IT ON THE PUBLIC SIDE, RIGHT? BUT THERE IS VALUE ON THE INTERNAL. 
          I HAD, UM, NOTICED THAT FORMER BRANCH WASN'T WORKING TWO OR THREE YEARS AGO, AND I SENT A MESSAGE TO THEM TO CHIEF, AND THEY, THEY HAD FOUND THE, THE FIXED WORK, WHAT IT WAS. 
          I WAS JUST SUGGESTING THAT MAYBE YOU TALK TO THE NEIGHBORING SOUND LIKE YOU ARE. 
          SO IT'S GOOD THEY MAY HAVE, UH, THE ANSWER AND IT IS LIKELY A GUY THAT RETIRED SOMEWHERE THAT'S NOT GETTING THE EMAIL OR LATE. 
          UM, I'M REALLY GLAD TO SEE WHAT YOU'RE DOING ON HOMELESSNESS. 
          THAT'S REALLY, UH, GOOD, GOOD TO KNOW THAT IT'S HOLISTIC, UH, UH, APPROACH ON THAT. 
          AND THEN, UM, ON, UH, ON YOUR STATS ON SLIDE 31, THOSE ARE, UH, INVERSE  NEIGHBORS OR NI NATIONAL INCIDENT BASED REPORTING. 
          WELL, THOSE OUTCOMES OR THOSE, UM, CALL NAMES, LIKE, IS THAT THE FULL CIRCLE? UH, AS FAR AS WHAT, WHAT THEY WERE ACTUALLY, UH, CONVICTED OF OR WHAT THE CRIME TURNED OUT TO BE? SO THAT YEAH, USUALLY THAT'S, THAT'S GONNA BE MORE OF THE FINALITY. 
          OKAY. 
          OKAY. 
          UM, IT DOESN'T NECESSARILY MEAN THAT THERE WAS A, UM, A DISPOSITION ON THE CASE. 
          MAYBE, YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES A PROPERTY CRIME MADE CASE BE SUSPENDED LIKE THAT. 
          BUT THOSE ARE MORE ACCURATE NUMBERS. 
          THEY'RE MORE ON BACK THAN THE FRONT END WHERE LIKE LEXUS OKAY, JUST WANTED BROUGHT THE QUESTION. 
          I THOUGHT THAT WOULD BE A GOOD . 
          AND THAT'S TO YOUR EARLIER, YOU KNOW, TALKING ABOUT THE KIDNAPPING. 
          THAT'S BECAUSE THE FBI, THIS IS THEIR PROGRAM, RIGHT? THIS IS NOT THE STATE OF TEXAS. 
          THIS IS NOT THE TOWN OF ADDISON DECIDED WE WANT TO USE THIS, THIS IS THE FBI SAYING YOU WILL DO THIS. 
          UM, SO THEY HAVE HEADINGS THAT TRY TO ENCAPSULATE, YOU KNOW, 50 STATES PLUS TERRITORIES. 
          SO THEY, NOT EVERY STATE CALLS IT UNLAWFUL RESTRAINTS. 
          NOT EVERY STATE CALLS IT ASSAULT. 
          THERE'S ALL THESE DIFFERENT TERMS. AND SO THEY HAVE THESE GIANT HEADINGS LIKE KIDNAPPING, WHATEVER. 
          THERE IS KIDNAPPING DETECTIVES THAT EXISTS AS A CRIME, BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT WE'RE PRODUCING, UM, IN OUR REPORT. 
          RIGHT? BUT THERE'S NO WAY. 
          BUT AGAIN, WITHOUT HAVING A GIANT SPREADSHEET OF THE DEBT, WE CAN PULL THAT DATA, BUT IT CAN BE, THAT WOULD BE A VERY DEEP DIVE FOR A STATISTICALLY MINDED PERSON. 
          THANKS FOR REITERATING ON THE COMMUNITY CRIME MAP THAT, UM, THE POSITION ON THE NARRATIVE, BECAUSE SO MANY PEOPLE DON'T REALIZE THAT IT'S JUST THE FIRST REPORT, AND IT MAY BE COMPLETELY WRONG, AND IT'S NOT FULL CIRCLE BACKGROUND. 
          WHAT IT IS, IS IT'S RELATIVE. 
          SO IF YOU'RE LOOKING 
          [01:00:01]
AT ALL THE, UM, REPORTS ALL AROUND THE AREA, THEN THEY'RE ALL JUST AS BAD OR JUST ISN'T INADEQUATE OR, OR INACCURATE. 
          SO THAT'S, UH, ONE OF THE WAYS THAT I HAD LOOKED AT IT, BUT I'M GLAD TO SEE THAT YOU'RE SPENDING SOME EFFORT. 
          I WOULDN'T SPEND, LIKE YOU SAID, WOULDN'T SPEND A LOT ON IT, BUT TRY TO PREPARE THAT LINK WELL FOR ON, ON ONE LEVEL. 
          I THINK FOR ME IT WAS A LITTLE BIT THE PRINCIPLE OF THE THING THAT WHY, WHY WAS THIS NOT ADDRESSED? AND I WANT SOMEONE TO TELL ME WHY SOMEONE EXPLAIN THAT. 
          THANK YOU. 
          I, UM, I ALSO WANTED TO MENTION, DARREN MENTIONED IT, BUT ALSO WANTED TO MENTION, UM, ABOUT GOOD TO SEE, UM, UH, THE ADDRESSING THE HOMELESSNESS, UM, YOU KNOW, INCREASE. 
          UM, I KNOW YOU HAD THE, UM, YOU HAD THE SEMINAR IN NOVEMBER. 
          YES. 
          AND, UH, IF YOU COULD JUST ADD A LITTLE BIT OF COLOR AS TO, UM, WHAT I'LL, THE AGENDA AT THAT SEMINAR I WAS NOT ABLE TO ATTEND, BUT, UM, AND SOME OF THE OTHER THINGS YOU HAVE PLANNED AS FAR AS WORKING WITH METRIC OF SERVICES. 
          YEAH. 
          SO THE, AS FAR AS THE MEETING WE HAD BACK IN NOVEMBER, UH, THAT WAS A LITTLE BIT MORE OF A, UH, KINDA AN EXPLANATION OR AN EDUCATIONAL CAUSES OF HOMELESSNESS TYPES OF, OF FOLKS THAT ARE LIVING IN THOSE DIFFERENT SITUATIONS. 
          UM, BECAUSE YOU'VE GOT SOME OF THE, WE CALL THE PANHANDLER THERE, THERE'S A BIG CHUNK OF THEM THAT ARE NOT ACTUALLY HOMELESS. 
          JUST MAKE A GOOD LIVING STANDING ON THE STREET FROM THE RIGHT CLINIC AND MONEY AND UNDERSTANDING THAT THE BARRIERS, UH, FOR FOLKS THAT ACTUALLY ARE HOMELESS, UH, TO GETTING INTO LONG-TERM HOUSING, SHORT TERM HOUSING, SUBSTANCE ABUSE TREATMENT. 
          THAT'S TRUE. 
          SO THAT'S MUCH MORE EDUCATIONAL. 
          I KNOW. 
          UM, AND WE'RE NOT NECESSARILY, THE PD IS NOT LEADING THE CHARGE ON THIS MEETING. 
          UH, SARAH, THE CITY MAYOR OFFICE IS LEADING THAT. 
          THAT'S WHERE WE'RE BRINGING MORE OF OUR PARTNERS IN TO COME BACK AND GET EXPLAINED CAUSES THE, UM, UNDERLYING, UH, SOCIETAL ISSUES. 
          RIGHT. 
          BUT BECAUSE WE, WE HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT AS A CITIZEN, WHETHER, NOT IF I, YOU KNOW, FUNCTION AS A POLICE OFFICER, BUT AS JUST AS A HUMAN BEING, UNDERSTANDING HOW PEOPLE GET TO THAT POINT FIRST AND THEN BEING ABLE TO UNDERSTAND HOW I CAN BEST HELP THEM, UH, IN MY ROLE OR AS A, AS A POLICE OFFICER, WE CERTAINLY PLAY A BIG PART IN THAT. 
          UM, BUT THERE ARE A NUMBER OF OTHER PLAYERS THAT WILL BE THERE. 
          SOME OF THE HOUSING SOLUTIONS, SOME OF THE OUTREACH GROUPS, THEY PLAY A MUCH BIGGER PART. 
          UH, WE, WE HAVE AN IMPORTANT ONE. 
          UM, BUT THERE'S ONLY SO MUCH THAT POLICE CAN DO. 
          YEAH. 
          NOW I WOULD JUST ADD, I THINK THESE QUESTIONS ARE PERFECT. 
          IT'S LIKE, IF THIS IS A, TO BE CONTINUED, BECAUSE AT THE NEXT COUNCIL MEETING WE'RE GONNA HAVE A WORK SESSION WHERE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HOMELESSNESS. 
          WE'RE GONNA HAVE METRO PRESS THERE. 
          UM, WE'RE HAVE HOUSING BOARD THERE. 
          SO WE'RE GONNA BE TOGETHER TO TALK ABOUT THIS. 
          WE'RE GONNA TALK A LOT ABOUT WHAT THAT MAIN MEETING IS GONNA, IS GONNA TOUCH ON, BUT ALSO THE ROLES THAT EVERYONE PLAYS, THE ROLES THAT METRO PRESS, THE OTHER NONPROFITS PLAY. 
          AND THEN OUR ROLE, AND I THINK AS CHIEF SAID EARLIER IN, WE'LL TALK ABOUT THIS A LOT AT THAT MEETING. 
          IT'S NOT JUST POLICE, IT'S ACROSS THE ORGANIZATION. 
          AND WE'LL TALK ABOUT SOME OF THE EFFORTS THAT WE'RE DOING IN, IN THAT, IN THAT REALM AS WELL. 
          SO THANK YOU FOR ASKING. 
          MAYBE WE'RE SUCH A SMALL TOWN. 
          I, I SORT OF CHUCK A LITTLE BIT. 
          THERE'S A QR CODE ON THE HOMELESS SCIENCE, RIGHT? YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO GET OUTTA YOUR CAR, GO UP AND QR CODE, OR GO TO THE WEBSITE QR CODE IN A PRACTICAL MANNER. 
          IS THERE A WAY OF MAYBE EVEN CREATING A SIZED BUSINESS CARD AT TOWN? STAFF POLICE FIRE US AS COUNCIL MEMBERS. 
          I HAD AN INSTANCE WHERE I WAS LITERALLY AT A GAS STATION WITH BEING PANHANDLED GUY. 
          REALLY LOOKED, NOT HOMELESS, BUT IN NEED. 
          SO I STARTED TO TALK TO HIM ABOUT WHAT IS YOUR TRULY YOUR NEED? ARE YOU HUNGRY? ARE YOU HOMELESS? HOMELESS? I'M HUNGRY. 
          ALL OF THE ABOVE. 
          AND I SAID, HAVE YOU HEARD OF METRO CRE? NO. 
          HE WAS, HE WAS LITERALLY SITTING IN THE CORNER FARMER'S BRANCH IN ADDISON AND I TO THE POINT WHERE I WAS LITERALLY GONNA PUT HIM IN THE CAR OR CALL POLICE, LET'S GET HIM OR CALL METRO PRESS. 
          BUT IF I COULD HANDED HIM THE CARD WITH A PHONE NUMBER, NOT A QR CODE, HE, HE DIDN'T HAVE A PHONE, SHE'S NOT GONNA BE ABLE GO QR CODE OR ANYTHING. 
          IT'S AN IDEA OF TO BRING UP TO HER EXPORT SESSION WITH METROCREST, HAVE SOMETHING TANGIBLE. 
          YOU CAN JUST HAND SOMEBODY SOMETHING AS AID. 
          YEAH. 
          AND I THINK, AND, AND WE'LL TALK ABOUT IT THING IN THAT SITUATION TOO, KIND OF, SO, YOU KNOW, OR ANY YOU STANDING IN FOR A NEW RESIDENCE, WHO TO CALL WITH THE CITY. 
          CERTAINLY WE CAN, BUT REALLY YOU CAN JUST CALL METRO ADDRESS AT THAT POINT AND TELL 'EM WHERE THE PERSON IS. 
          THEY CAN USE THEIR RESOURCES. 
          BUT WE, WE CAN TALK ABOUT THAT A LOT, BUT ABSOLUTELY. 
          YEAH. 
          MCC ABLE TO CONTACT THE, UH, COMMANDER OF DALLAS PD CENTRAL, WHICH IS OUR NEIGHBOR, JUST TO THE EAST OR CENTRAL SUBSTATION, AND THEY'RE GONNA DO THEIR BEST. 
          WE WERE TRYING TO GET ONE OF THEIR STAFF MEMBERS TO COME ATTEND THAT MEETING WITH US, AND THEY START ACTUALLY WORKING TOGETHER THE FIRST TIME BY 20 YEARS. 
          DALLAS PD IS CERTAINLY AN INITIATIVE TO WORK TOGETHER WITH US, SOME OF OUR, OUR, OUR BORDER ISSUES. 
          'CAUSE THEY UNDERSTAND AND THEY'VE GOT THEIR OWN PROBLEMS TOO. 
          UH, BUT, BUT BEING A GOOD PARTNER AND, AND TRYING TO HELP EACH OTHER. 
          SO HOPEFULLY WE CAN GET SOME, THEIR STAFF, 
          [01:05:01]
AT LEAST SOMEBODY, UH, THERE TO MAKE THOSE INTRODUCTIONS AND SHOW THAT. 
          GOOD. 
          HEAR ANOTHER QUESTION, BRAD, I MEANT TO ASK YOU EARLIER ABOUT NORTEK SWAT. 
          UM, AGAIN, GOING BACK TO THE RIDE ALONG I WAS ON, IT WAS ACTUALLY A SWAT INSTANCE IN BRUCE'S NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          IT WAS THE IRONY OF IT ALL. 
          SO WE HAD TO HAVE IRVING WITH THEIR, THEIR POLICE DOG. 
          I THINK IT WAS A POLICE DOG. 
          SHE WASN'T A SWAT ISSUE. 
          IT WAS MORE OF A, DID WE HAVE A, DO WE HAVE THAT BUDGET? I MEANT TO ASK YOU THIS TOO. 
          THE, THE OTHER DAY, ARE WE BUDGETED FOR MORE POLICE DOGS? DO WE NEED LESS POLICE DOGS? DO WE HAVE MORE SWAT CALLS THAN LAST YEAR? MORE SWAT CALLS THAN LESSER? IS THERE MORE OR LESS? UH, NO. 
          I THINK SWAT FROM THE SWATS CANINE OPERATIONS. 
          YEAH. 
          K SWAT, SWAT, TOTALLY DNCE. 
          UM, THE SWAT SIDE. 
          I THINK WE'RE GOOD THERE. 
          THERE AS FAR AS, YOU KNOW, STAFFING EQUIPMENT, I MEAN, CERTAINLY THERE ARE, THERE'S ALWAYS MONEY REQUIRED. 
          AND, AND THAT'S A, THAT'S A, THAT'S A HIGH COST, UM, EXERCISE. 
          THE, THE THINGS THEY USE AND THE THINGS THEY DO ARE EXPENSIVE. 
          UH, BUT I THINK WE'RE, WE'RE, WE'RE OKAY AS FAR AS WHAT WE HAVE RESOURCES, UH, WE'RE GOOD THERE. 
          WE, WE HAVE ONE, UH, CANINE IN FACT, UH, GETTING READY TO, UM, BRAG ON FACEBOOK. 
          WE, WE JUST GOT A NEW ONE BACK. 
          WE HAD TO RETIRE OUR PREVIOUS ONE, SOME MEDICAL ISSUES. 
          UM, SO WE JUST STARTED BACK FROM TRAINING. 
          SO THEY'RE BACK ON THE STREET THIS WEEK IS THEIR FIRST WEEK BACK. 
          SO, UM, WE HAVE ONE, UH, THAT'S ENOUGH FOR US. 
          WE DON'T NEED MORE THAN ONE. 
          UH, BUT, UH, THERE WE ALSO HAVE KIND OF, AGAIN, A COOPERATIVE INTERAGENCY WHERE WE CAN CALL FARMER'S BRANCH, CARROLLTON, ELL, PLANO, IRVING. 
          WE ALL SUPPORT EACH OTHER BECAUSE MOST, MOST AGENCIES DON'T HAVE 24 7 CANINE COVERAGE. 
          UH, THEY, THEY JUST, STAFFING WISE, THEY JUST CAN'T. 
          AND SO THEY ALL, WE ALL KIND OF RELY ON EACH OTHER TO, TO SUPPLEMENT, LIKE, HEY, MY GUY'S OFF, OR HE'S OUT OF TOWN, OR HE'S IN TRAINING LIKE OURS WAS, UH, AND SO I THINK WE WE'RE, WE'RE IN A GOOD PLACE. 
          MCC WE ARE. 
          OKAY. 
          GOOD MORNING. 
          THANK YOU, CHIEF. 
          I TRUST THAT WE'RE GONNA, UH, PUSH THIS A LOT OF THIS INFORMATION OUT TO THE COMMUNITY IN A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT WAYS SO THAT THEY CAN SEE HOW MUCH YOU ALL ARE DOING ON, ON A DAILY BASIS. 
          'CAUSE I'M SURE NOBODY REALIZES YOU ALL ARE WRITING 5,000 REPORTS A YEAR. 
          THAT TAKES A LITTLE BIT OF TIME JUST ON, ON TOP OF EVERYTHING ELSE. 
          BUT, UH, THANKS FOR THE EXCELLENT PRESENTATION.

          THEY HAVE AN UPPER SCHOOL AND A LOWER SCHOOL. 
          UH, ONE OF THEIR STRATEGIC GOALS, UH, FOR, FOR THEIR, UH, ORGANIZATION WAS TO CONSOLIDATE BOTH OF THOSE CAMPUSES INTO ONE SITE AND ALSO PROVIDE A REGULATION SIZE GYM, UH, TO INCLUDE INDOOR BASKETBALL AND VOLLEYBALL COURTS. 
          SO WITH THIS REQUEST, THE SCHOOL WOULD ACHIEVE BOTH OF THOSE GOALS BY CONSOLIDATING, UM, INTO ONE BUILDING AND ALSO ADDING THE GYMNASIUM, WHICH WE'LL DIG INTO A LITTLE BIT DEEPER IN A FEW SLIDES. 
          BUT THAT GYM WOULD ALSO SERVE AS A STORM SHELTER FOR THE SCHOOL, WHICH IS REQUIRED BY A STATE LAW. 
          SO THE SCHOOL WOULD OCCUPY THE FOUR STORY OFFICE BUILDING. 
          IT'S APPROXIMATELY 95,000 SQUARE FEET. 
          UH, THE GRADES WOULD BE, UM, SUBDIVIDED BY FLOOR BY AGE, SO THE YOUNGER STUDENTS WOULD OCCUPY THE LOWER FLOORS AND THE OLDER STUDENTS. 
          THE UPPER FLOORS, UH, THE SCHOOL CURRENTLY SERVES A TODDLER TWO THROUGH 12TH GRADE AND HAS A STUDENT POPULATION OF 289. 
          UM, WITHIN, UM, THE PACKET THAT WAS PROVIDED ON THE LETTER OF INTENT, THE LAST PAGE PROVIDES THEIR PROJECTIONS FOR THEIR STUDENT POPULATION, I BELIEVE THROUGH 2033, UH, WHICH PUTS THEIR MAXIMUM STUDENT POPULATION AROUND 385 STUDENTS. 
          UM, FROM THEIR STANDPOINT, UH, THAT WOULD BE THEIR MAXIMUM CAPACITY THEY WOULD FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH AT THIS CURRENT SPACE. 
          UM, SO INCLUDED WITH SOME OF THE OTHER SITE IMPROVEMENTS THAT ARE PROPOSED WITH THE APPLICATION, UH, THEY HAVE, UH, MADE SOME SITE MODIFICATIONS TO ACCOMMODATE A STUDENT DROP OFF AND PICKUP AREA ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE BUILDING. 
          UM, AND ALSO PROVIDE PERIMETER SECURITY FENCING AND, UM, ADDED DUMPSTER ENCLOSURE ON SITE THAT WOULD SERVE THE SCHOOL SPECIFICALLY. 
          SO THERE WAS SOME, UH, CONVERSATIONS LEADING UP TO THIS MEETING REGARDING THE DUMPSTER ENCLOSURE AND ITS ADJACENCY TO THE RESIDENTIAL, UM, PROPERTY, UH, NEXT DOOR. 
          THE, UH, TOWN HOMES OF ADDISON, UH, TO ACCOMMODATE SOME OF THOSE CONCERNS AND LOOK FOR A BETTER SOLUTION, THE APPLICANT HAS PROPOSED, UM, RELOCATING AND REORIENTING THE DUMPSTER ENCLOSURE AS SHOWN ON THE SCREEN. 
          UH, SO THIS WOULD ACTUALLY, UM, PUT IT ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE, THE EAST SIDE OF WHERE THE FIRE LANE IS, SO WOULD NOT BE, UH, IMMEDIATELY ADJACENT TO THAT PROPERTY LINE. 
          UM, THIS PARTICULAR, UM, IMPROVEMENT HAS BEEN SOMEWHAT CHALLENGING TO FIND AN APPROPRIATE SPACE FOR IT, UH, FROM A STAFF STANDPOINT AND THE APPLICANTS TRYING TO FIND, UM, WHERE WOULD BE APPROPRIATE AND ALSO ACCESSIBLE WHILE, UH, AVOIDING SOME CONSTRAINTS ON THE SITE, INCLUDING EXISTING UTILITIES AND MAKING SURE THAT IT'S NOT A LONG PROTON DRIVE AND CLEARLY VISIBLE FROM THE PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY. 
          UH, THIS WOULD WAS A POSSIBLE SOLUTION THAT THE APPLICANT PRESENTED, UH, TO ACCOMMODATE SOME OF THOSE CONCERNS FOR THE FLOOR PLAN OF THE SCHOOL. 
          UH, AS I MENTIONED EARLIER, THEY'D OCCUPY THE ENTIRETY OF THE FOUR STORY 
          [01:20:01]
BUILDING. 
          UM, THEY'RE NOT PROPOSING TO MAKE SIGNIFICANT MODIFICATIONS, HOWEVER, THEY WILL, UM, FITTED OUT FOR A SCHOOL. 
          AND SOME OF THE INTERIOR AREAS WILL BE, UH, PROGRAMMING FOR THE INTERIOR AREAS WILL INCLUDE CLASSROOMS, OFFICES, INDOOR MOVEMENT SPACES, UH, RESTROOM AND STORAGE. 
          UH, THE SCHOOL DOES NOT PROPOSE TO HAVE ANY LAB SPACE OR SHOP SPACE THAT WOULD, UM, AFFECT OR IMPACT, UH, THEM UNDER THE BUILDING OR FIRE CODES. 
          ADDITIONALLY, THESE STUDENTS BRING ALL OF THEIR OWN LUNCHES TO THE SITE. 
          THEY DO NOT PREPARE ANY FOOD ON SITE, SO THERE'S NO COOKING FACILITIES. 
          UM, THIS ALSO LIMITS, UM, DELIVERIES TO THE SITE AS WELL. 
          UM, AND THEN THEY ARE UTILIZING AS, AS SHOWN ON THE SITE PLAN, THE WEST SIDE OF THE BUILDING AS THE PRIMARY ENTRANCE, WHICH IS WHERE THE NEW PICKUP AND DROP OFF ZONE WILL BE LOCATED. 
          FOR THE GYMNASIUM, UH, IT'S, UM, JUST UNDER 11,000 SQUARE FEET. 
          UM, THERE'S NOT A LOT OF ADDITIONAL SPACE. 
          THEY'RE HAVING THE, THE FULL-SIZED, UH, BASKETBALL VOLLEYBALL COURT, UM, BLEACHERS FOR APPROXIMATELY 300, UM, SPECTATORS. 
          AND THEN, UM, LOCKER ROOMS, RESTROOMS, UH, THEY ARE PROPOSING, UH, WHAT'S CALLED A FOOD COURT. 
          HOWEVER, THIS IS JUST PROPOSED TO BE, UM, A SMALL AREA WHICH COULD SERVE, UM, PREPACKAGED, UM, BEVERAGES OR SNACKS OR OTHER THINGS THAT WERE, UM, PREPARED OFFSITE AT SOME, UM, SOME OF THEIR EVENTS. 
          THERE WILL NOT BE ANY, UM, COOKING FACILITIES WITHIN THAT SPACE FOR THE PARKING ON SITE. 
          UH, STAFF HAD TO ESTABLISH WHAT WOULD BE AN APPROPRIATE RATIO. 
          UH, THANKFULLY WITH THIS PROJECT, UH, THE APPLICANT DID PROVIDE A TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS AND A TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLAN. 
          UH, WE HAD TO DO THAT BECAUSE WE DO NOT HAVE BASE PARKING RATIOS WITHIN OUR ZONING DIS ZONING ORDINANCE TODAY. 
          UM, IT IS SINCE, SINCE SINCE SCHOOLS BOTH PUBLIC AND PRIVATE REQUIRE SPECIAL USE PERMIT. 
          WE JUST EVALUATE EACH INSTANCE AS THEY COME FORWARD. 
          UM, SO BASED ON THE INFORMATION PROVIDED IN THE TIA AND THE TMP, UH, THEY PROVIDED THAT THEIR CURRENT PARKING DEMAND WAS 70 SPACES. 
          THAT INCLUDES, UH, 55 SPACES FOR THEIR CURRENT FACULTY AND THE 15 SPACES THAT THEIR STUDENT DRIVERS OCCUPIED. 
          UM, SINCE THE SCHOOL DOES PROVIDE EDUCATION TO TODDLER THROUGH 12TH GRADE, A VERY SMALL PERCENTAGE OF THEIR STUDENT POPULATION IS ACTUALLY OF DRIVING AGE. 
          UM, SO DOES NOT NEED A LOT OF, UM, PARKING PROVIDED FOR THAT. 
          UH, THE PARKING PROPOSED IS 146 SPACES. 
          SO A STAFF BELIEVES EVEN AT THEIR HIGHEST CAPACITY OF 385 STUDENTS, PARKING WILL BE ACCOMMODATED ON SITE FOR THE TREE REMOVAL. 
          UH, THEY ARE PROPOSING TO REMOVE 250 CPER INCHES, UH, PRIMARILY TO ACCOMMODATE THE NEW PICKUP AND DROP OFF AREA ON THE, UH, WEST SIDE OF THE BUILDING. 
          UH, THEY ARE PROPOSING TO MITIGATE 72 CALIBER INCHES ON SITE, AND THEY WILL PAY THE REMAINDER OF THAT INTO THE TREE MITIGATION FUND, APPROXIMATELY 34,000. 
          ONE THING I WOULD LIKE TO HIGHLIGHT IS THEY ARE, UH, PRESERVING A MAJORITY OF THE PERIMETER AND EVEN SOME OF THE INTERIOR TREES. 
          UH, FOR REFERENCE, THEY ARE PRESERVING, UM, 1,345 CALIPER INCHES THAT ARE CURRENTLY ON SITE. 
          UH, SO THEY'RE PROPOSING TO, TO REMOVE ABOUT 15% OF THE TREES, OR EXCUSE ME, 15% OF THE CALIBER INCHES FOR THE LANDSCAPING ONSITE. 
          THEY ARE, UH, WE'RE ABLE TO ACTUALLY PROVIDE AN INCREASED LANDSCAPING AS FAR AS OPEN SPACE IS CONCERNED BECAUSE THE PRO THE NEW GYM IS ACTUALLY ON AN EXISTING PAVED, UH, PARKING AREA. 
          UH, SO THEY WERE ACTUALLY ABLE TO INCREASE THAT SLIGHTLY TO 18.5% OF THE, UM, AREA PROVIDED TO BE OPEN SPACE OR LANDSCAPED AREA. 
          THEY'RE ALSO PROPOSING TWO SMALL PLAYGROUND AREAS, ONE BETWEEN THE, THE, UM, SCHOOL BUILDING AND THE GYMNASIUM. 
          UH, AND IT'S ANTICIPATED THAT THAT WILL HAVE, UH, SOME LIKE PICNIC TABLES AND BENCHES FOR STUDENTS. 
          AND THEN THEY'RE PROPOSING ANOTHER AREA WHICH IS LOCATED ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE SCHOOL BUILDING, UH, WHICH WE MORE TAILORED TO. 
          UM, SOME OF THE YOUNGER STUDENTS. 
          THEY DO PROPOSE TO ADD IN THE FUTURE SOME OUTDOOR PLAY EQUIPMENT. 
          HOWEVER, THEY DON'T HAVE THAT, UH, FULLY DESIGNED AT THIS TIME. 
          THEY'RE PROPOSING VERY MINOR MODIFICATIONS TO THE EXISTING OFFICE BUILDING, UH, PRIMARILY TO ACCOMMODATE SOME NEW, UH, REQUIRED ACCESS POINTS, UH, FOR SAY, UH, EMERGENCY, UM, INGRESS 
          [01:25:01]
AND EGRESS. 
          AND THEN FOR THE PRO, THE PROPOSED GYMNASIUM, UH, THE DESIGN IS, IS ON THE SCREEN BEFORE YOU. 
          THEY'RE PROPOSING A 35 FOOT TALL, UM, STRUCTURE THAT IS DESIGNED TO BE COMPATIBLE AND MATERIAL AND COLOR WITH THE EXISTING OFFICE CAMPUS. 
          UH, SO IT BLENDS MORE SEAMLESSLY. 
          UM, ALL OF THE MECHANICAL EQUIPMENT WILL BE ROOF MOUNTED AND SCREENED FROM A PARAPET. 
          THE TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS THAT WAS, UH, CONDUCTED, PRODUCED A UH, RESULT THAT SAID THERE WOULD BE A NET DECREASE OF 462 DAILY TRIPS, UH, FOR THE PRIVATE SCHOOL AT FULL CAPACITY OF THE 385 STUDENTS. 
          SO THAT NUMBER IS A RESULT OF THE COMPARING BOTH THE PRIVATE SCHOOL AT CURRENT CAPACITY AND FUTURE COMPARED TO THE FULL OCCUPANCY OF THE OFFICE BUILDING. 
          SO WHILE IT IS LIKELY A INCREASE FROM WHAT IS CURRENTLY TODAY BECAUSE THAT OFFICE BUILDING IS VACANT AND UNDERUTILIZED, IT WOULD STILL BE SIGNIFICANTLY LESS THAN IF THAT OFFICE BUILDING WAS SUCCESSFUL AND WAS FULLY OCCUPIED. 
          ADDITIONALLY, THE UH, TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS DID NOT RECOMMEND ANY TRAFFIC MITIGATION MEASURES WITHIN EITHER THE SITE OR AROUND THE SITE. 
          FOR THE TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLAN, THIS WAS VERY IMPORTANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE WERE FULLY ACCOMMODATING ALL STACKING FOR THE PICKUP AND DROP OFF ON SITE, AND WE WERE NOT, UM, EXPERIENCING ANY KIND OF BACKUP OR TRAFFIC STOPPING ON PROTON DRIVE. 
          UH, SO HOW THE TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLAN WAS DESIGNED, UH, WAS FOR, UM, INDIVIDUALS TO ENTER THE SITE AT THE EASTERNMOST DRIVEWAY ALONG PROTON DRIVE, UM, TRAVEL SOUTH AND MEANDER AROUND THE, UM, SCHOOL AND GYM BUILDING AND THEN BACK NORTH AND EXIT IN A EGRESS ONLY DRIVE. 
          THIS AREA WOULD HAVE A, UM, A MOUNTABLE CURB WITH A SIGN THAT SAYS EXIT ONLY, SO THAT THOSE TRAFFIC, UM, ARE NAVIGATED BACK TOWARDS MIDWAY ROAD AND ARE NOT ENTERING BACK INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          ADDITIONALLY, THE SCHOOL HAS STAGGERED PICKUP AND DROP OFF TIMES. 
          SO NOT, YOU'RE NOT EXPERIENCING ALL OF THE STUDENTS PICKED UP OR DROPPED OFF AT THE SAME TIME. 
          UH, WHEN ANALYZING WHAT THEIR CURRENT CAPACITY IS AT THEIR TWO CAMPUSES ACROSS THE STREET, UH, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THEY NEEDED APPROXIMATELY OR A MAXIMUM OF 550 FEET OF STACKING, AND THEY ARE ABLE TO FULLY ACCOMMODATE THAT ON SITE BY PROVIDING 880 FEET. 
          UH, THAT IS EQUIVALENT TO ABOUT 40 VEHICLES AT ONE TIME BEING, UH, LINED UP. 
          AND IN THE INSTANCE OF AN EMERGENCY, THEY HAVE ALSO PROVIDED A 771 FOOT EMERGENCY CLEAR OUT QUEUE. 
          UH, SO IN THE INSTANCE THAT, UM, THERE WAS AN EMERGENCY AND WE HAD TO GET, UM, EMERGENCY SERVICES IN THERE, UH, THERE WOULD, THOSE VEHICLES WOULD'VE BE ABLE TO SWIFTLY LEAVE THAT AREA. 
          STAFF DID NOTIFY ALL PROPERTY OWNERS WITHIN 200 FEET OF THE SITE, UH, THAT INCLUDED 109 RECIPIENTS AND WE DID NOT RECEIVE ANY, UM, RESPONSES TO THAT REQUEST. 
          UH, THE APPLICANT DID HOLD A NEIGHBORHOOD MEETING THAT WAS VERY WELL ATTENDED, UH, ON TUESDAY, MARCH 5TH. 
          AND, UH, LASTLY, THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDED APPROVAL UNANIMOUSLY AT THE MARCH MEETING. 
          UH, I WANTED TO QUICKLY HIGHLIGHT A COUPLE OF ITEMS THAT CAME UP AT THE P AND Z MEETING, INCLUDING, UH, THE CONCERN ABOUT, UH, TABC OR TRAFFIC, OR EXCUSE ME, , TEXAS ALCOHOL AND BEVERAGE COMMISSION SEPARATION REQUIREMENTS. 
          UH, SO ADDISON CURRENTLY DOES NOT HAVE THOSE, UH, IN EFFECT TODAY. 
          UH, WHAT WOULD APPLY IS THAT THE TABC WOULD REQUIRE ANY BUSINESSES WITHIN THE AREA THAT ARE APPLYING FOR A-T-A-B-C LICENSE TO SELL ALCOHOL TO NOTIFY THE SCHOOL IF THEY'RE WITHIN A THOUSAND FEET. 
          UH, THE SCHOOL DOES NOT HAVE ANY KIND OF VETO POWER OR AUTHORITY TO DENY THE APPLICATION. 
          IT'S SIMPLY A NOTIFICATION SO THEY'RE AWARE. 
          UM, THE OTHER ITEM WAS THAT PLANT, THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION ADDED A CONDITION TO SPECIFY THE FENCE, HEIGHT AND MATERIAL. 
          UH, SO AT THE TIME OF APPLICATION, UM, THE APPLICANT KNEW THEY WANTED A SECURITY OR A PERIMETER SECURITY FENCE. 
          HOWEVER, THEY WEREN'T, UM, CLEAR ON EXACTLY HOW THAT WOULD BE DESIGNED. 
          AS FAR AS THE APPEARANCE, UM, THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION FELT IT NECESSARY TO ADD A CONDITION SPECIFYING AN IRON FENCE THAT WAS BETWEEN SIX AND EIGHT FEET IN HEIGHT. 
          AND, UH, SO STAFF IS RECOMMENDING APPROVAL OF THIS REQUEST. 
          UH, 
          [01:30:01]
THE PROPOSAL IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR ADAPTIVE REUSE OF THE SITE. 
          UH, IT HAS, THE OFFICE HAS BEEN SOMEWHAT UNDERUTILIZED, SO PUTTING A NEW TENANT ON THERE THAT IS SOMEWHAT, THAT'S COMPATIBLE WITH A ADJACENT RESIDENTIAL, UH, NEIGHBORHOOD IS, UH, A GOOD THING. 
          SO WE CAN AVOID LONG-TERM, UH, MAINTENANCE OR CODE VIOLATIONS AT THE OFFICE BUILDING. 
          UH, AND WE ARE ALSO SEEING REINVESTMENT IN THAT AREA. 
          WITH THIS PROPOSAL, UH, STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL WITH THE TWO CONDITIONS. 
          UH, THE FIRST IS THAT A PHOTOMETRIC PLAN BE SUBMITTED, UH, WITH THE GYMNASIUM, UH, BUILDING PERMIT SO THAT WE CAN ENSURE THAT THERE'S NO, UH, NEGATIVE EFFECTS ON THE, UM, ADJACENT RESIDENTIAL PROPERTIES. 
          AND THE SECOND IS THAT THE PROPOSED SECURITY FENCE BE CONSTRUCTED OF IRON AND SIX TO EIGHT FEET IN HEIGHT, UH, WHICH WAS ADDED BY THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION. 
          UM, I WILL ADD ONE ADDITIONAL THING THAT'S NOT ON HERE IS THAT, UH, I WOULD ASK THE COUNSEL TO CONSIDER PLACEMENT OF THE, OR THE PROPOSED RELOCATION OF THE DUMPSTER ENCLOSURE. 
          AND IF THAT'S SOMETHING THAT YOU'RE INTERESTED IN, INCLUDING, I RECOMMEND INCLUDING THAT AS A CONDITION AND, UH, STAFF WILL ENSURE THAT IT IS PROPERLY RELOCATED. 
          AND WHEN WE ISSUE, UH, ANY BUILDING PERMITS, I'D BE HAPPY TO TAKE QUESTIONS AND, UH, THE SCHOOL AND THE APPLICANT OUR ATTENDANCE AS WELL. 
          THANK YOU. 
          LESLIE MARLIN. 
          UH, THANK YOU MAYOR. 
          UM, LESLIE, CAN YOU GO BACK TO SLIDE 13? SORRY. 
          OKAY, I'M, AND I'VE GOT, UH, TRAFFIC, MAN, IT'S OUR SLIDE 13. 
          IT'S, UH, TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLAN. 
          THERE WE GO. 
          THERE WE GO. 
          AND SO I'M FOCUSED ON THE EXIT. 
          MM-HMM. 
           PEOPLE EXIT ON PROTON DRIVE AND YOU'VE GOT THIS PROPOSED RIGHT OUT ONLY EXIT WITH MOUNTABLE CURB. 
          AND CAN YOU KIND OF HELP US IN WHAT THAT, WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE? SURE. 
          UM, I'M GONNA GO BACK TO THE SITE PLAN. 
          UM, WOULD WE BE ABLE TO ZOOM IN ON THE TOP LEFT CORNER? ALRIGHT, SO ON THE SITE PLAN ON THE SCREEN, IT'S ON THE TOP, UM, RIGHT HAND CORNER. 
          THAT LITTLE, UH, IS COMMONLY REFERRED TO AS A PORK CHOP IS ADDED THERE. 
          AND SO THAT WILL, THAT CURB WILL BE ANGLED SO THAT THOSE VEHICLES ARE, UM, FORCED TO EXIT AND TURN RIGHT. 
          SO IF THEY WERE TO EXIT THAT, THAT DRIVEWAY AND TURN LEFT, UH, THEY WOULD HAVE TO JUMP THE CURB TO DO SO. 
          OKAY. 
          AND IT, IT APPEARS THAT, THAT THERE'S AN OPPORTUNITY ON THE LEFT SIDE TO TO, TO GO OUT AND TAKE A LEFT. 
          IS THAT NOT THE CASE? SO THAT WOULD BE, UH, AN ENTRANCE ONLY. 
          SO YOU COULDN'T, IT'S NOT A, OH, YOU CAN, YOU CAN ENTER THERE ON THAT IF YOU NEEDED TO. 
          YES, THAT WOULD BE A POSSIBILITY. 
          SO THE TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLAN IS FOCUSED ON HOW THE OPERATIONS OF PICKUP AND DROP OFF AND HOW THE INDIVIDUALS WILL NAVIGATE THE SITE. 
          SO IT IS A, UM, OPERATED IN A SYSTEM AND NOT JUST INDIVIDUALS KIND OF NAVIGATING THE SITE AT WILL. 
          OKAY. 
          SO THE IN THE INTENTION THERE IS, IS FOR NORTHBOUND WOULD BE ON THE RIGHT, SO YOU WOULD HAVE TO EXIT HOWEVER INTER ENTRANCE ON THAT SIDE WOULD ALSO BE POSSIBLE. 
          UH, WE HAD SOME ISSUES NARROWING THAT OR WE COULDN'T NARROW IT BECAUSE WE STILL HAVE TO MAKE SURE THAT A FIRE ENGINE COULD NAVIGATE THAT AND GET IN THERE. 
          I'LL ALSO ADD THAT THE TIA SHOWED A AS WITHOUT THIS, UM, WHEN THE STUDY WAS COMPLETED, WHICH DIDN'T INCLUDE THIS PROPOSED FORCE. 
          RIGHT. 
          UH, THE TIA SAID THAT THEY ANTICIPATED FOUR VEHICLES WOULD TURN LEFT AT THAT, THAT POINT. 
          I, IS THAT SOMETHING, IS THAT KIND OF SIMILAR TO WHAT WE HAVE AT OUR RACETRACK IN ADDISON, UH, OFF ARAPAHOE ROAD? YES. 
          OKAY. 
          UM, DID, DID WE CONSIDER, UH, EXTENDING THE, THE MEDIAN ON PROTON ROAD TO NOT ALLOW, UM, LEFT HAND TURNS? WE DID TALK ABOUT IT. 
          UH, SO YOU CAN SEE THAT AT THAT SAME POINT WHERE THIS DRIVEWAY IS PROTON ROAD AND NARROWS QUITE SIGNIFICANTLY, UH, IT WOULD BE A CHALLENGE TO DO THAT. 
          UM, SHANNON HICKS, OUR PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR IS HERE. 
          HE CAN MAYBE SPEAK TO THAT A LITTLE BIT MORE IN DEPTH, BUT THAT WAS THE GENERAL RESULT OF 
          [01:35:01]
THAT CONVERSATION WAS THE, THE RIGHT OF WAY WOULD BE TOO NARROW TO EXTEND THE MEDIAN IN THAT AREA OR I GUESS FAR ENOUGH DOWN THAT IT WOULD SERVE A, SERVE THE PURPOSE. 
          YEAH, I'D LOVE TO HEAR FROM SHANNON ON THAT MEETING. 
          MAYOR AND COUNCIL, I'M SHANNON HICKS, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS AND ENGINEERING SERVICES. 
          WE DID LOOK AT EXTENDING THE MEDIAN DOWN VERY, VERY EARLY IN THIS PROCESS AND WE CONCLUDED THAT IT JUST, WE DIDN'T HAVE QUITE ENOUGH WIDTH THROUGH THERE TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT. 
          IT WAS EARLY IN THE PROCESS AND I'D HAVE TO GO BACK AND LOOK AT IT AGAIN, BUT I REMEMBER WE DID DISMISS IT AS NOT BEING FEASIBLE, SO THAT'S WHY WE ENDED UP USING THE PORK CHOP TO HELP FORCE HIM OUT. 
          LESLIE, LESLIE DID HAVE A GOOD POINT THOUGH, IS EVEN WITHOUT THE DIRECTIONAL MEDIAN, THE MAXIMUM CARS PREDICTED TO GO ON PROTON WAS ONLY FOUR VEHICLES ANYWAYS. 
          SO THIS IS JUST, JUST ADDED ENCOURAGEMENT TO KEEP THOSE, THOSE PEOPLE FROM TURNING LEFT. 
          SO THE, THE, THE TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS IS TELLING US THAT THERE'S ONLY GONNA BE FOUR PEOPLE COMING OUT OF THERE TAKING A LEFT ON PROTON PER DAY. 
          PER DAY. 
          IT, THAT WAS WITH NO PROTECTION AT ALL. 
          THAT'S WHAT THEY WERE PREDICTING. 
          THE SCHOOL IS ALREADY EXISTING ACROSS THE STREET AND MOST OF THE PARENTS AREN'T GONNA BE CHANGING THEIR PATTERNS ON GETTING TO THAT SCHOOL WITH IT JUST MOVING ACROSS THE STREET FROM MIDWAY. 
          SO WE TRULY BELIEVE THAT MOST OF THE PARENTS GO, COMING AND GOING, WILL BE USING MIDWAY TO COME THERE. 
          OKAY. 
          UM, THANK YOU. 
          UH, THE OTHER QUESTION I HAVE LESLIE ON THE TREES, UM, I KNOW ON THE, WHERE THEY'RE PROPOSING THE FRONT ENTRANCE, WE'RE, WE'RE TALKING ABOUT NINE, NINE TREES BEING REMOVED IN THAT AREA. 
          ARE WE TALKING ABOUT ADDING ANY TREES IN THAT, ON THAT SIDE OF THE BUILDING? YEAH. 
          UH, SO THERE'S NOT THIS AREA. 
          OH, WRONG DIRECTION. 
          THERE WE GO. 
          SO THERE ARE A COUPLE OF TREES. 
          UH, OBVIOUSLY THIS AREA IS GOING FROM A, UM, A MORE HIGHLY VEGETATED AREA TO A PAVED AREA. 
          'CAUSE YOU'RE ADDING A, UM, UH, THE DROP OFF LANE, THE DRIVE LANE THERE. 
          UH, THEY ARE PROPOSING TO ADD THE TWO, UH, LANDSCAPE ISLANDS ON EITHER SIDE, UM, OF THE, THE ENTRANCE AND EXIT OF THAT, UH, LOADING ZONE. 
          UM, AND THERE ARE TO THE LEFT OF THAT SOME ADDITIONAL TREES IN THAT WHAT WILL BE A FUTURE KIND OF OUTDOOR PLAYGROUND AREA OR, OR STUDENT AREA AS WELL. 
          UM, AS ON THE, THE NORTH AND SOUTH OF, OF THE LOADING AREA. 
          UM, I WANT TO LOVE TO HEAR FROM THE APPLICANT ON THIS LATER. 
          BUT, UM, ONE OF THE THINGS I'M, AND I LIVE OVER TOWN HOMES OF ADDISON RIGHT NEXT DOOR. 
          UM, SO ONE OF THE THINGS I'M CONCERNED ABOUT IS THE TREE, THERE IS A LITTLE BIT OF A TREE BUFFER WITH THOSE NINE TREES. 
          UM, AND, AND THERE I THINK THERE'S A GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO ADD A TREE WHERE, WHERE I THINK JUST ONE GAP EXISTS ON THAT, ON THAT, UH, WESTERN BORDER. 
          AND THAT'S BETWEEN TREE NUMBER 8 4 0 4 AND 8 4 0 5. 
          FOR THOSE THAT HAVEN'T BEEN OUT THERE, WE'VE GOT THE TREES TAGGED. 
          ALRIGHT. 
          AND, UM, SO THAT'S, THAT'S GONNA BE ONE OF THE THINGS I'M GONNA BE ASKING FOR TO, TO KIND OF, UM, HELP, HELP, UH, MAINLY MAYBE JUST ONE, ONE OF OUR RESIDENTS HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF BUFFER 'CAUSE THAT'S GONNA BE LOST, UM, WITH THESE REMOVAL OF THESE NINE TREES. 
          UM, AND I AM, I'LL ADD, I'M, I'M PLEASED THAT, UM, THERE'S BEEN SOME DISCUSSION ABOUT MOVING THE, THE TRASH DUMPSTER, UM, AWAY FROM ABUTTING TOWN HOMES OF ADDISON, THE RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY. 
          SO THAT'S ALL I HAD, MAYOR. 
          THANK YOU MARLON. 
          NANCY. 
          UM, YES, AS FAR AS THE TRASH DUMPSTER, COULD YOU GO OVER THAT, UH, AS FAR AS, UM, COMPARING WHERE IT WAS FIRST PROPOSED AND THE NEWLY PROPOSED AS WELL AS IF YOU COULD ADDRESS, UM, UH, THE DESIGN OF IT AND MAYBE THE MATERIALS OF COURSE. 
          YEAH. 
          UH, THE, SO THE DUMPSTER WAS ORIGINALLY LOCATED, UM, WITH THE, THERE'S A SITE PLAN MAP IN THE, IN THE TOP RIGHT WITH THE, THE RED BOX SHOWING THE ZOOMED IN AREA. 
          BUT IT WAS LOCATED, UH, IN THE BOTTOM, UM, BELOW, EXCUSE ME, SOUTH OF THE GYMNASIUM. 
          UM, AND IT WAS LOCATED, UH, WITH THE REAR ABUTTING, THE WHAT WOULD BE THE WEST PROPERTY LINE, UM, WHICH IS THE TOWN HOMES OF ADDISON, SOME RESIDENTIAL ADJACENCY THERE. 
          UM, OBVIOUSLY THERE IS A SCREENING WALL AND SOME LANDSCAPING, HOWEVER, DUE TO THE, THOSE TOWN HOMES, UM, BEING TWO STORIES, UH, YOU'LL BE ABLE TO LOOK DOWN AND, AND SEE INSIDE 
          [01:40:01]
THE DUMPSTER ENCLOSURE WHERE IT WAS ORIGINALLY PROPOSED. 
          AND THERE'S ALSO CONCERNS ABOUT, UH, NOISE AND OTHER THINGS. 
          THE DUMPSTER OR THE SOLID WASTE IS PICKED UP TWICE A WEEK, UM, ON, UH, MONDAY AND THURSDAY, APPROXIMATELY BETWEEN NINE AND 11. 
          UH, HOWEVER WE WANT TO LIMIT THOSE DISTURBANCES IN ANY UNSIGHTLINESS AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. 
          SO THE PROPOSED LOCATION, UH, MOVES THAT TO THE EAST, ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE FIRE LANE. 
          UM, IT IS NOT A, A DRASTIC MOVE IN TERMS OF OF DISTANCE, HOWEVER, IT, IT DOES PROVIDE, UH, AN ADDITIONAL, I DUNNO, 35 TO 40 FEET, UH, FROM WHERE IT WAS OR FROM THOSE TOWN HOMES FROM WHERE IT PREVIOUSLY WAS. 
          UH, SO THEY WOULDN'T, IT'S UNLIKELY THAT THEY'D BE ABLE TO LOOK RIGHT OUT THEIR WINDOW AND LOOK INTO IT. 
          UH, THE DUMPSTER ENCLOSURE IS EIGHT FEET TALL AND IT WILL BE CONSTRUCTED OF, OF MASONRY THAT TO MATCH THE, UH, GYMNASIUM BUILDING. 
          OKAY, THANK YOU. 
          OH, I HAVE ONE OTHER QUESTION. 
          UM, IT MIGHT BE BEST, UM, ADDRESSED TO THE APPLICANT HAVING TO DO WITH, UH, THE EVENTS THAT MIGHT BE, UH, TAKING PLACE IN THE GYM AND THE ATTENDANCE. 
          SO YEP. 
          KU THANK YOU MAYOR LESLIE, THANK YOU FOR THAT PRESENTATION. 
          CAN WE, UH, FOCUS FOR A LITTLE BIT ON THE TREES? THE, UH, LET'S SEE, THAT WOULD BE SLIDE EIGHT ON MY, I BELIEVE IT'S SLIDE EIGHT, TREE REMOVAL OH NINE ON YOURS. 
          OKAY. 
          CAN YOU, UH, ZOOM IN OR LOOK FOCUS HERE ON THE PROPOSED ONE STORY BUILDING ON THE EAST EDGE, THERE ARE FOUR TREES THERE THAT, THAT ARE MARKED FOR REMOVAL. 
          MM-HMM. 
          , CAN YOU TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE CONVERSATIONS THAT WERE HAD? UH, IF IN FACT THERE WERE SOME CONVERSATIONS ABOUT PERHAPS SAVING THESE TREES, THE CONDITION THAT THEY MIGHT BE IN, WHAT IT WOULD TAKE TO, TO, UM, TO KEEP THOSE TREES AND HOW IT WOULD IMPACT SURE. 
          THE DESIGN PERHAPS. 
          YEAH. 
          SO, UM, THOSE PARTICULAR TREES ARE PROPOSED. 
          SO THEY'RE EXISTING TODAY IN, UH, LANDSCAPE ISLANDS AT THE TERMINUS OF, OF A ROWS OF PARKING, UM, THAT CURRENTLY EXISTS TO SERVE THE CAMPUS. 
          UH, SO OBVIOUSLY THE PROPOSED GYMNASIUM IS, WOULD BE LOCATED APPROXIMATELY ON TOP OF THOSE AREAS, UH, MAKING IT CHALLENGING TO PRESERVE THOSE TREES, UH, FROM A STANDPOINT. 
          UH, SO A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES. 
          SO IF WE WERE TO TRY TO, UH, SHIFT THE, UM, THE ENTIRE BUILDING TO THE, UH, WHAT WOULD BE THE WEST, UH, SO THEN THERE'S PRESENTS SOME ADDITIONAL CHALLENGES. 
          WELL, ONE, THE, UH, BUILDING NOW BECOMES VISIBLE FROM PROTON DRIVE. 
          UH, THAT POTENTIALLY ELIMINATES SOME PARKING, UH, DEPENDING UPON HOW FAR YOU WOULD NEED. 
          'CAUSE UH, THE OTHER THING TO CONSIDER IS YOU'D HAVE TO PUSH THE BUILDING FAR ENOUGH TO THE WEST IN ORDER TO ACCOMMODATE A LANDSCAPE AREA PLUS AN ADDITIONAL SIDEWALK. 
          UH, SO WE'RE NOT JUST TALKING ABOUT FIVE FEET. 
          IT WOULD PROBABLY CLOSER TO, I DON'T KNOW, 15 TO 20 FEET. 
          UH, SO THEN YOU START TO HAVE OTHER SITE IMPACTS THAT CREATES WHAT COULD BE, UM, LESS EFFICIENT USE OF SPACE. 
          SO, UM, AS SHOWN ON THE WEST, I GUESS IT WOULD BE THE NORTHWEST CORNER OF THE, UM, THE GYMNASIUM THEY CREATED A COHESIVE OR NOT, UM, A CON UM, SORRY, LOST MY WORD THERE. 
          UM, A MORE COLLECTED OPEN SPACE AREA THAT'S USABLE FOR A PLAYGROUND, FOR AN OUTDOOR AMENITY AREA FOR THE STUDENTS. 
          IF THEY WERE TO SHIFT THE BUILDING, THEY WOULD THEN LOSE A LOT OF THAT SPACE. 
          SO THEN ON THE OTHER SIDE THEY WOULD HAVE A SMALL STRIP OF LANDSCAPING AND BE ABLE TO PRESERVE THOSE TREES, WHICH ARE ALSO IMPORTANT. 
          BUT THEN THEY ALSO JEOPARDIZE HAVING, UM, A NICE OPEN SPACE NEAR THE FRONT ENTRANCE. 
          SO IT WAS REALLY A TRADE OFF, UM, IF I CAN. 
          SO THEN IF YOU SEE, UH, ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE, THEY PROVIDED THAT NICE, UM, KIND OF OUTDOOR AMENITY AREA THAT, AND ADDED THOSE TREES BACK IN. 
          UH, SO IT WAS REALLY A TRADE OFF IN THAT DISCUSSION OF WHERE TO I GUESS, SACRIFICE TREES AND WHERE TO PRESERVE AND TRYING TO BE STRATEGIC ABOUT THAT CONVERSATION. 
          UM, THIS PROJECT WAS, UM, KIND OF REFRESHING THAT WE HAD SOMEONE WHO WAS TRYING TO COME IN AND USE THE EXISTING SPACE AND NOT, UH, DO A SIGNIFICANT REDEVELOPMENT, UH, BUT REALLY WORK WITHIN THE EXISTING FOOTPRINT OF THE SITE AND PRESERVE AS MUCH AS THEY COULD. 
          UM, AND AS I MENTIONED THEY DID, WE WE'RE ABLE TO ACHIEVE, UH, PRESERVATION OF, OF 
          [01:45:01]
85% OF THE, THE CALIBER BRANCHES ON SITE, WHICH IS PRETTY SIGNIFICANT. 
          UH, SO IT SOUNDS LIKE, UH, THERE'S REALLY, IT'S A GOOD, IT'S A GOOD DESIGN RIGHT NOW COMPACT, BUT, AND IT WOULD, IT WOULD HAVE TO, UH, AFFECT THE, UH, PROGRAMMING SQUARE FOOTAGE IN ORDER TO KEEP IT THE WEST WALL IN ONE PO LOCATION AND THEN REDUCE THE FOOTPRINT. 
          THANK YOU FOR THAT EXPLANATION. 
          SO NOW I'D LIKE TO LOOK AT THIS TREE AT, IT'S IN THE TOP LEFT OF OUR SCREEN HERE. 
          IT'S AN EXISTING TREE THAT'S GONNA, UH, SLATED TO BE REMOVED HERE. 
          NEXT, THERE'S A NOTE NEAR IT THAT SAYS 10 FOOT TP AND L EASEMENT. 
          'CAUSE THE TREE IS NOT NUMBERED ON MY DOCUMENT. 
          SORRY, ARE YOU LOOKING ON THE TREE REMOVAL? YEAH, THIS PAGE RIGHT HERE THAT WE HAVE ON SCREEN RIGHT THERE. 
          SO AT THE, UH, THERE LOOKS TO BE A NEW CURB, UH, PROPOSED THERE. 
          SO THAT TREE THAT'S, UH, SLATED TO BE REMOVED IS IN A, IS IN A TREE BANK. 
          NOW, IS THERE, WAS THERE A CONSIDERATION OF BEING ABLE TO ADJUST THAT TREE BANK SO AS TO PRESERVE THAT PARTICULAR TREE? YEAH, SO THE, UH, IS A BIT CONFUSING. 
          UM, BUT THE DARKER, UH, LINE THAT'S KIND OF THE PERS PERIMETER OF THOSE PARKING SPACES ACTUALLY SERVES AS THE, UM, BOUNDARY FOR THE QUEUING LINE AND IS NOT RIGHT. 
          SO IT IS PAVED AREA, IT'S NOT, UM, UNDERSTOOD. 
          OKAY. 
          AND, AND SO THEN, AND THIS SITE IS ACTUALLY, WHILE IT LOOKS LIKE SOME MINOR ADJUSTMENTS, THERE WAS ACTUALLY A PRETTY SIGNIFICANT INTERVENTION ON THIS SITE BECAUSE, UM, WHEN THIS SITE WAS ORIGINALLY DEVELOPED IN THE EIGHTIES, ALL OF THOSE PARKING SPACES WERE APPROXIMATELY 15 FEET DEEP AND THEY ALSO PROVIDED A 22 FOOT FIRE LANE. 
          UM, IF YOU'RE FAMILIAR WITH OUR FIRE ENGINES TODAY, YOU KNOW THAT THEY, UH, CAN NAVIGATE A 22 FOOT, UH, IN MOST INSTANCES, A 22 FOOT FIRE LANE WHEN YOU HAVE, UH, CARS STICKING OUT THREE TO FOUR FEET ON EACH SIDE. 
          UH, SO THEY ACTUALLY HAD TO ELIMINATE THE PARKING THAT WAS HEAD IN ON, UH, WHAT IS FACING TOWARDS THE OFFICE BUILDING OR THE PROPOSED SCHOOL IN GYMNASIUM. 
          THEY HAD TO REMOVE THAT, WHICH WAS ACTUALLY, UH, GREAT 'CAUSE THEN THEY COULD ADD LANDSCAPE AREA AND SOME PROGRAMMABLE AREA FOR OUTDOOR SPACE. 
          UM, BUT THEN THEY HAD TO, THEY HAD TO SHIFT ALL OF THE PARKING FACE, UH, FACING TOWARDS THE TOP OF YOUR SCREEN DOWN TO ACCOMMODATE ALSO A WIDENED FIRE LANE AND THEN ALSO HAD TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY COULD ACCOMMODATE A QUEUING LANE AND A PICKUP AND DROP OFF LANE. 
          SO WE WENT THROUGH PROBABLY THREE OR FOUR ITERATIONS OF WHAT THOSE APPROPRIATE NUMBERS LOOK LIKE AS FAR AS HOW CAN WE GET ALL OF THAT TO FIT WITHIN A VERY DEFINED SPACE BECAUSE WE'RE NOT MOVING THE OFFICE BUILDING. 
          UM, SO, AND ONE OF THE ITERATIONS, I DO BELIEVE THAT THEY RECOMMENDED SAVING THOSE. 
          HOWEVER, IN ORDER TO MEET THE FIRE SAFETY REQUIREMENTS, WHICH INCLUDES A FIRE LANE AND APPROPRIATE PARKING SPACES THAT MEET OUR MINIMUM CODE, IT WASN'T FEASIBLE. 
          ALRIGHT, SO HERE AGAIN, WE SEE THAT THERE'S A LOT OF THOUGHT PUT INTO, UH, ELIMINATION OF THAT TREE. 
          APPRECIATE THAT. 
          SO IF WE CONTINUE ON CLOCKWISE, UH, PAST THE DROP OFF AREA WHERE THERE ARE 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ADDITIONAL TREE, SEVEN ADDITIONAL TREES TO BE REMOVED. 
          EIGHT ACTUALLY. 
          AND IF YOU TAKE A LOOK AT THE NORTH END OF THAT DROP OFF AREA TREE 1282, IT LOOKS TO BE IN THE SIDEWALK THERE. 
          MM-HMM. 
          , CAN YOU TELL US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THAT TREE AND, AND, AND SOME OF THE REASONS WHY IT, IT IT HAS TO BE CONSIDERED FOR REMOVAL HERE? SURE. 
          SO, UH, OBVIOUSLY SOME OF THE REASONS I JUST MENTIONED PREVIOUSLY ALSO COME INTO PLAY HERE. 
          UH, JUST RIGHT SIZING THAT AREA TO ACCOMMODATE ALL OF THOSE VARIOUS FEATURES. 
          UH, BUT ALSO IN THIS AREA, UH, YOU HAVE AN A DA PATH THAT, THAT SIDEWALK SERVES AS WELL AS THE BARRIER FREE RAMP, WHICH MEANDERS TO THE NORTH, WHICH, WHICH WOULD EVENTUALLY LEAD YOU TO, TO PROTON, UH, DRIVE. 
          UH, SO WE COULD HAVE TRIED TO HAVE THE, HAVE THE APPLICANT MEANDER AROUND THE TREE TO PRESERVE IT, HOWEVER, IT WOULDN'T BE, UM, THERE'S OTHER CHALLENGES WITH THAT AS FAR AS GRADE IS CONCERNED TO MAKE SURE ALL OF THAT WOULD WORK OUT. 
          SURE. 
          BUT IT ALSO WOULDN'T BE GREAT DESIGN FOR AN A DA PATH TO TRY TO MEANDER AROUND, UM, AN AN OBSTACLE IN THAT INSTANCE. 
          RIGHT. 
          AND SO IT, THE, CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG, THE DISCUSSIONS WERE TO JUST MEANDER TO THE NORTH OF IT AND GO AROUND THE TREE OR SHIFT 
          [01:50:01]
THE, I BELIEVE AT ONE ITERATION, SIMILAR TO THE PREVIOUS DISCUSSION, IT WAS PRESERVED HOWEVER, WE'RE RIGHT SIZING ALL OF THOSE FEATURES IN THAT VERY COMPACT AREA, WHICH ULTIMATELY ENDED UP RE LEADING TO A REDUCED PICKUP AND DROP OFF LANE IN TERMS OF WIDTH. 
          UM, SO THERE WAS A LOT OF DISCUSSION THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE PROCESS OF HOW DO WE FIT ALL OF THESE FEATURES AND WHAT CAN WE DO TO LIMIT THE NEGATIVE IMPACTS, WHICH INCLUDE ANY TREE REMOVAL. 
          SO THEN THAT TAKES ME TO MY FINAL TREE, UH, TOP RIGHT NORTHEAST CORNER. 
          THERE'S ANOTHER ON THE SAME SLIDE, JUST PUSH IT UP A LITTLE BIT THERE. 
          THE OTHER UP, IT LOOKS TO BE IN A 80, A AREA RAMP THERE OR A NEW RAMP. 
          IT IS AT THE, THE TERMINUS OF A, OF A NEW BARRIER FREE RAMP THAT WAS PROPOSED TO BE INSTALLED. 
          UH, SO THE SAME SITUATION AS WAS DESCRIBED BEFORE, THESE PARKING SPACES, IF YOU'RE FAMILIAR WITH THE SITE, THERE IS CURRENTLY PARKING ON BOTH SIDES OF THAT DRIVE AISLE FACING SOUTH AND NORTH HEAD END SPACES. 
          UH, ALL OF THOSE SPACES, ONCE AGAIN WERE 14, APPROXIMATELY 14 AND A HALF FEET IN DEPTH AND PROVIDED A 22 FOOT FIRE LANE IN DRIVE AISLE . 
          SO IT ONE, THESE REDEVELOPMENT SITES ARE CHALLENGING FOR A LOT OF REASONS. 
          NOT ONLY ARE WE TRYING TO, YOU KNOW, ADAPTIVE REUSE, BUT WE'RE DEALING WITH IN A LOT OF INSTANCES OUTDATED STANDARDS LIKE HERE. 
          UH, AND SO WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE THIS, THE BUILDING THE SITE WAS, HAD ADEQUATE EMERGENCY SERVICE PROTECTION. 
          SO THE APPLICANT ACTUALLY REMOVED THE ENTIRE ROW OF TREES ON THE SOUTH SIDE THAT FACED TOWARDS THE BUILDING, UH, OR EXCUSE ME, NOT TREES, PARKING SPACES. 
          OKAY, , SORRY ABOUT THAT. 
          THE, THAT ENTIRE ROW OF PARKING SPACES THAT FACE SOUTH, UM, SO THAT THEY COULD THEN RIGHTSIZE THE DRIVE AISLE AND RIGHTSIZE THE PARKING SPACES, WHICH FACED TO THE NORTH. 
          UM, THAT CAUSED THAT WHOLE AREA ONCE AGAIN TO SHIFT. 
          BUT THE, THE BENEFIT OF THAT IS WE WERE THEN ABLE TO PROVIDE, UH, A MORE CONGRUENT AND, AND COHESIVE LANDSCAPE AROUND THE BUILDING, WHICH THEY WERE ABLE TO ADD ADDITIONAL TREASON. 
          ALRIGHT, THANK YOU FOR THOSE, THAT EXPLANATION. 
          OBVIOUSLY IT'S, THEY'VE ALL BEEN REVIEWED, UH, CHALLENGE WITH, UH, WITH, UM, SAVING THEM, UH, BECAUSE OF THE, UH, THE PROGRAMMING OF THE SPACE AND THE, UH, UPDATING OF COMPLYING WITH THE CURRENT REQUIREMENTS. 
          CAN WE LOOK AT THE FENCE, THE SLIDE WITH THE FENCE? UH, DID YOU JUST WANT THE SITE PLAN SHOWING THE LOCATION, SITE PLAN. 
          SITE PLAN, REALLY, I'D JUST LIKE TO KIND OF FOLLOW THE PERIMETER OF IT AND GIVE US A LITTLE BIT MORE DESCRIPTION OF THE, UH, WHAT WHAT WOULD BE EXPECTED, UH, VISUALLY AS, UH, OTHER RESIDENT, OTHER, OTHER, UH, TENANTS IN THIS AREA WOULD SEE WHAT THEY WOULD SEE. 
          AND ARE THERE OTHER ACCESS POINTS IN THIS PROPOSED FENCE OTHER THAN THE TWO GOING ON TO PRO, UH, AC UH, ACCESS, UH, ENTRANCES OR EXIT ON THE PROFILE? SURE. 
          UH, SO THE, UM, I'M GONNA USE THE, THE CURSOR ON THE SCREEN TO HIGHLIGHT THE LOCATION OF THE PERIMETER FENCE FOR THOSE THAT CAN'T SEE IT. 
          BUT THIS IS PAGE FOUR BY THE WAY. 
          YES. 
          UH, SO THE SITE PLAN, UH, OR YEAH, THIS IS THE, THE SITE PLAN. 
          AND SO THERE IS A PERIMETER FENCE, WHICH IS, UH, GENERALLY ALONG THE, EXTENDS ALONG THE NORTH FACADE OF THE BUILDING, UM, EAST TO WEST. 
          AND SO THAT COVERS THE DRIVE AISLE AND THEN IT ACTUALLY KIND OF FOLLOWS THE EXTERIOR AREA OF THE, THE NEW LANDSCAPING. 
          UH, AND THEN KIND OF CIRCLES, THERE'S A CIRCLES BACK TO THE BUILDING AND ACROSS THIS DRIVE AISLE, UH, THERE WILL BE, UH, UH, PEDESTRIAN GATES OR OTHER ACCESS POINTS, UH, AS WELL AS THE, THE PHYSICAL GATE ITSELF, WHICH WOULD OPEN, UH, FOR CARS TO, TO GET IN AND OFF THE SITE. 
          ADDITIONALLY, THE FENCING IS SET BACK OFF OF PROTON. 
          SO WE HAVE A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT SCENARIOS SOMEONE COULD PULL IN, WAIT FOR THE GATE TO OPEN, UH, BUT THERE'S ALSO AMPLE PARKING ON SITE OUTSIDE OF THAT SECURITY FENCE IN THE INSTANCE THAT SOMEONE, A VISITOR WOULD NEED TO PARK ON SITE, UH, CONTINUING ON THE FENCE, UH, MEANDERS DOWN THE, WHAT WOULD BE THE, UM, EAST PROPERTY LINE. 
          THERE WE GO. 
          WHICH IS ADJACENT TO THE FORMER PLAZA SITE. 
          UH, ALL THE THROUGH THAT THE EXISTING MEDIAN. 
          UH, AND THEN WHEN YOU GET TO APPROXIMATELY THE 
          [01:55:01]
EDGE OF THE GYM, THE SOUTHERN EDGE OF THE GYMNASIUM BUILDING, UH, IT THEN HEADS WEST ACROSS THE SITE AND MEETS BACK UP WITH THE OTHER SIDE OF THE SITE. 
          UH, OBVIOUSLY THE CURRENT, UH, THERE'S A CURRENT MASONRY SCREENING WALL, UH, ON THE WEST PROPERTY LINE, WHICH WILL REMAIN. 
          UH, AND THEN THAT ONE CONCLUDES THE, I GUESS, THE ENTIRETY OF THE, THE SECURITY PERIMETER. 
          UH, THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING AN IRON FENCE, UH, BLACK IN COLOR, SIX TO EIGHT FEET IN HEIGHT. 
          THEY DON'T HAVE, UM, FURTHER DETAILS OTHER THAN THAT. 
          UH, THEY'RE STILL WORKING OUT THIS SPECIFIC DESIGN OF HOW IT WOULD LOOK. 
          UM, BUT THOSE ARE THE PARAMETERS WHICH THEY ARE PROPOSED TO WORK WITHIN. 
          UH, THE SECURITY GATES FOR THE DRIVE AISLES ARE PROPOSED TO BE OPEN DURING PICKUP AND DROP OFF TIMES, WHICH GENERALLY HAPPENS, UH, BETWEEN LIKE 7 45 AND EIGHT 30, AND THEN APPROXIMATELY THREE 15 TO 3 45, UH, DEPENDING UPON THE AGE OF THE STUDENT BECAUSE THEY HAVE STAGGERED PICKUP AND DROP OFF TIMES. 
          UM, IN ADDITION TO, UH, THE TWO POINTS OFF OF PROTON DRIVE, WHICH ARE ACCESSIBLE TO THIS BUILDING AS WELL AS THE REMAINDER OF THE MIDWAY ATRIUM SITE, UH, THERE IS ALSO AN ACCESS POINT DIRECTLY OFF OF MIDWAY ROAD, UM, THAT ANYONE ELSE ON THE SITE COULD, COULD USE FOR ACCESS FOR THE OTHER TWO OFFICE BUILDINGS. 
          UH, SOMEONE WHO IS ACHIEVING TO, TO, YOU KNOW, GET TO THE SCHOOL WOULD ALSO STILL BE ABLE TO UTILIZE THE MIDWAY ROAD ACCESS POINT. 
          UM, 'CAUSE IF YOU'LL NOTICE THAT THERE IS, IN ADDITION TO THE OTHER PARKING, WHICH IS PROVIDED ON SITE FOR THE OFFICE BUILDING, WHICH IS APPROXIMATELY 460 SPACES, THERE IS ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE BUILDING, THERE'S ALSO PARKING OUTSIDE OF THE PERIMETER FENCE AS WELL. 
          SO A WILL, UH, ALONG THE EAST, UH, WEST BOUNDARY, UH, AGAINST THE, UH, TOWN HOMES THAT ARE THERE. 
          WILL ANY OF THOSE HOMES, TOWN HOMES, WILL THEY BE ABLE TO SEE THIS PROPOSED FENCE FROM THEIR SIDE? IS IT TALLER THAN THEIR WALLS ANYWHERE ALONG? THERE ARE, I DON'T . 
          IT'S CHALLENGING. 
          'CAUSE THERE THAT WALL KIND OF SITS DOWN. 
          IT CHANGES RIGHT DOWN. 
          IT DOES CHANGE. 
          SO I DON'T WANNA, I DON'T WANNA DEFINITIVELY SAY NEVER. 
          RIGHT. 
          UH, 'CAUSE IT'S POSSIBLE THERE ARE SPECIFIC ANGLES AND DEPENDING UPON THE SITE, LIKE IF YOU'RE LOOKING DOWN SURE, SURE, SURE. 
          UM, I, I WAS JUST CONSIDERING SOMEBODY STANDING THERE, YOU KNOW, IN THEIR BACKYARD NOT, NOT SEEING IT. 
          SO I WOULD SAY CHANGING THEIR VIEW NECESSARILY. 
          I WOULD SAY GENERALLY NO. 
          UNLESS YOU WERE POTENTIALLY AT ONE OF THOSE POINTS THAT IT, IT DROPPED. 
          UM, 'CAUSE SOME OF THOSE DROPS ARE QUITE SIGNIFICANT. 
          THEY ARE. 
          UM, SO, AND I JUST WANTED TO REVEAL THAT IN THIS CONVERSATION THAT MM-HMM, , THERE ARE SOME, THERE, THERE ARE SOME DIFFERENCES IN THE WALL HEIGHTS COMPARED TO WHAT IT IS THAT'S BEING PROPOSED. 
          SO BUYER BEWARE. 
          UNDERSTOOD. 
          I THINK THAT'S IT FOR NOW, MAYOR. 
          THANK YOU LESLIE. 
          FOR NOW. 
          HUH? FOR NOW. 
          THANK YOU DAN. 
          HI, LESLIE. 
          SO QUESTION, AND IT WON'T BE ABOUT TREES OR SHRUBS, I PROMISE , UM, IN THINKING ABOUT THE ANNE FRANK SCHOOL AND THINKING ABOUT LEGACY CHRISTIAN AND SHANNON PROBABLY CAN ANSWER THIS QUESTION TOO. 
          UM, WILL PARENTS HAVE MORE PARKING SPACES THE 146 PROPOSED THAN WHAT WAS ACROSS THE STREET IN FARMER'S BRANCH? FIRST QUESTION, SECOND PART WOULD BE WILL WE BE ALLOWING PARENTS THAT SAY TO THE CHILDREN, DON'T, I'M NOT COMING INTO SCHOOL. 
          I'LL MEET YOU ON PROTON. 
          SO WILL WE HAVE A, WILL WE HAVE A NO PARKING LANE ON PROTON TOWARDS THE TOWNHOMES ENTRANCES SO THERE'S NO MEANDERING OR CARS WAITING FOR KIDS TO EXIT THE SCHOOL AND HEAD WEST TO HOP IN A CAR WITH THEIR PARENTS TO THEN LEAVE? UM, SO I WILL HAVE THE APPLICANT REFER TO SOME PARTS OF YOUR QUESTION MORE SPECIFICALLY. 
          UM, I DO KNOW THAT THEY HAVE CERTAIN AGE RANGES WHERE, UM, AND I I COULDN'T TELL YOU SPECIFICALLY THOSE GRADES OR AGES THAT THEY DO NOT ALLOW THE, THE PARENTS HAVE TO GET OUT OF THEIR VEHICLES AND COME IN AND, AND RETRIEVE THE CHILD. 
          THEY CAN'T JUST, THEY'RE NOT FREE REIGN TO LEAVE THE BUILDING. 
          UM, ADDITIONALLY, UM, I'LL, I THINK THAT, UH, IN A LOT OF THOSE INSTANCES WHERE WE WOULD SEE THAT HAPPEN, IT'S DUE TO A LACK OF EFFICIENCY. 
          UH, YOU KNOW, THEY DON'T, I DON'T WANNA WAIT IN A DROP PICKUP LINE FOR AN HOUR, WHATEVER THE SCENARIO. 
          UM, THE ONE BENEFIT I SEE OF, OF THIS SCHOOL AND HOW THE TMP IS, IS OUTLINED, UH, IS IT IS VERY EFFICIENT. 
          UM, SO AT ONE POINT, I, SO THE, AND, AND THE, ALL THE, THE OTHER BENEFIT IS THAT THE TIA AND THE TMP WERE ABLE TO GO AND, AND TAKE ACTUAL COUNTS OF THE CURRENT SCHOOLS ACROSS THE STREET. 
          AND SO WE'RE NOT LOOKING AT THIS HYPOTHETICAL DATA OF 
          [02:00:01]
WHAT IF WE HAD THIS MANY STUDENTS, HOW DO WE THINK, UH, IT'S THE SAME STUDENT POPULATION? OBVIOUSLY THOSE STUDENTS WILL, WILL AGE AND WILL WILL MOVE ON AND THEY'LL BE NEW STUDENTS. 
          BUT WE'RE LOOKING AT ACTUAL DATA OF WHAT'S CURRENTLY HAPPENING THERE THIS WEEK, OR YEAH. 
          I WOULD JUST LIKE TO KNOW IF THE APPLICANT'S GONNA PUT TO THE PARENTS, THERE'S NO PARK, PLEASE DO NOT DO A COURTESY TO THE TOWN RESIDENTS IN THE TOWN HOMES DO NOT PARK ON PROTON PARK IN THE PARKING LOT, MEANING COME THROUGH THE GATES, SIT AND WAIT IN THE PARKING SPACES THAT ARE PROVIDED. 
          YES. 
          INSTEAD OF WAITING ON THE STREET, UH, THAT, WELL, THAT IS THE INTENT. 
          SO, UH, AS I MENTIONED THE TMP, THERE IS A CLEAR OUT LANE. 
          SO IN ADDITION TO, SO SOME OF THE THINGS THAT WE, UM, UH, AGREED UPON WITH THE SCHOOL IS THAT THEY WOULD HAVE, UM, ATTENDANCE ON SITE AROUND THE QUEUING AREA TO MAKING SURE THAT PARENTS ARE FOLLOWING THE RULES. 
          AND IN THE EVENT OF EMERGENCY, WE CAN, YOU KNOW, CLEAR OUT WE, WE NEED TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT QUICKLY. 
          UH, SO I BELIEVE THAT NOT ONLY THE PRESENCE OF, OR SOME OF THE OTHER REQUIREMENTS AS FAR AS PICKUP AND DROP OFF THAT THE, THAT THE SCHOOL REGULATES. 
          UH, THERE'S OTHER THINGS THAT WE, FROM THE TOWN PERSPECTIVE AND A SAFETY PERSPECTIVE NEED TO REGULATE THAT WILL HELP REGULATE THOSE THINGS THAT YOU'RE MENTIONING. 
          UM, RIGHT. 
          LIKE WE DID FOR LLCA, WE'VE, WE'VE FIXED SOME ROADS, ENTRANCES IN AND OUT IN INGRESS AND EGRESS SO THAT WE DIDN'T NEED TO DO THAT OR POTENTIALLY LOOK AT DOING THAT HERE ON PROTON. 
          ARE YOU SAYING WE DIDN'T NEED TO, MEANING WE WE STUDIED IT, WE DIDN'T NEED TO. 
          CORRECT. 
          I WOULD, I WOULD SAY JUST FOR THE TCA EXAMPLE, I MEAN THAT, THAT WAS TCA HAS LCF, UH, THAT WAS ONE WHERE, YOU KNOW, THE SITUATION, WE, WE GOT TO SEE WHAT THE PATTERN WAS AND THERE WERE ISSUES AND WE WORKED WITH THE SCHOOL TO ADDRESS THEM. 
          SO I DON'T, LOOKING AT THE PLAN, I AGREE WITH LESLIE, I THINK THE PLAN'S VERY EFFICIENT AND WE WON'T HAVE THOSE ISSUES. 
          BUT IF THEY, IF WE HAVE ISSUES, WE'LL CERTAINLY WORK WITH THE SCHOOL TO, THAT'D BE MY ONLY CONCERN IS THAT FIRE, FIRE POLICE COULDN'T GET IN AND OUT EASILY. 
          OR THE RESIDENTS COMING IN AND OUT OF TOWN HOMES OF ADDISON WOULD BE LIKE, WAIT A MINUTE, I GOT 15 CARS HERE CLOGGING THE LANES. 
          YEAH. 
          AND I WOULD, I WOULD ADD ON PROTON IN THAT AREA. 
          UM, WE HAVE, UH, NO PARKING ANY ANYTIME SIGNS IN THERE. 
          OKAY. 
          WE DO HAVE THOSE. 
          THANKS LESLIE. 
          THANKS EILEEN. 
          I, I ALSO HAVE A PARKING QUESTION ON THE EAST SIDE WHEN THOSE GATES ARE CLOSED, IT APPEARS THAT THEY'RE PARKING PLACES ON THE FAR EAST SIDE. 
          YES. 
          BUT IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE THERE'S A WAY TO GET TO THOSE PARKING PLACES. 
          SO CAN YOU EXPLAIN THAT TO ME? BECAUSE I, I SEE WHERE THE DRIVE LINE IS MM-HMM. 
          THE TRANSPORTATION LINE, BUT I DON'T SEE HOW YOU COULD GET TO THOSE PARKING PLACES DURING THE DAY. 
          SURE. 
          SO, UM, THIS, UH, IS OBVIOUSLY MISSING THE ADJACENT PROPERTY, SO IT'S NOT PROVIDING MUCH CONTEXT. 
          UM, BUT AT OFF PROTON DRIVE YOU CAN HEAD STRAIGHT SOUTH THROUGH THE EXISTING DRIVE AISLE. 
          UM, THERE'S ALSO A CURB CUT SO THAT YOU COULD TURN ONTO, UH, THE, THE FORMER CROWN PLAZA SITE. 
          AND SO USING THAT AND, AND THIS AREA, WHICH IS, UM, KIND OF OFF SCREEN, THAT IS A CROSS ACCESS EASEMENT SPECIFICALLY GRANTED TO THIS PROPERTY. 
          SO, UM, YOU COULD ACCESS THOSE PARKING SPOTS FROM PROTON. 
          YOU CAN ALSO ACCESS THEM FROM THE OTHER WAY, WHICH IS OFF OF MIDWAY ROAD. 
          THANK YOU. 
          YEAH. 
          MARLI, I'VE GOT ONE MORE QUESTION. 
          UM, CAN WE GO BACK TO SLIDE 13 AGAIN? THIS TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT PLAN, AND I WANNA MAKE SURE I'M UNDERSTANDING THIS CORRECTLY. 
          UM, I'M LOOKING AT IT, I SEE INGRESS ONLY. 
          IS, IS THAT JUST LIKE ONE-WAY TRAFFIC, OR ARE WE GONNA HAVE TWO-WAY TRAFFIC THERE ON THE INGRESS ONLY? SO TECHNICALLY THIS DRIVE AISLE IS A, IS A, IS A TWO-WAY DRIVE AISLE TODAY. 
          AND, UM, THAT ALSO SERVES AS A FIRE LANE. 
          UM, WHAT YOU SEE IN, IN RED. 
          AND THEN OBVIOUSLY TURNING TO BLUE AT THE, THE EGRESS POINT, WHICH REPRESENTS LEAVING THE SITE, THE CHILD'S ALREADY BEEN DROPPED OFF. 
          UH, THAT IS SPECIFICALLY SHOWING HOW THE SCHOOL OR HOW THE SITE IS DESIGNED TO MANAGE THE STACKING AND QUEUING ON SITE. 
          IT'S NOT NECESSARILY MEANT TO SHOW ALL OPPORTUNITIES FOR A VEHICLE OR HOW THEY COULD DRIVE OR NAVIGATE THE SITE. 
          IT'S TWO-WAY TRAFFIC, CORRECT? CORRECT. 
          GOT IT. 
          AND SO, UM, WE'VE GOT THIS TRAFFIC, UH, UH, TRAFFIC ANALYSIS AND, AND THE TRAFFIC ANALYSIS SAID THAT THERE'LL ONLY BE FOUR, FOUR CARS, UM, I'M ASSUMING MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY THAT WOULD BE TAKEN A LEFT ON PROTON? CORRECT. 
          SO IF WE BE, I WILL JUST ADD THAT THAT WAS WITHOUT THE ADDITIONAL INTERVENTION OF THAT, UH, THAT MOUNTABLE CURB, SO THAT WAS WITH A 
          [02:05:01]
OPEN ACCESS POINT. 
          OKAY. 
          AND SO IF, IF WE BELIEVE THAT, AND I'M NOT SAYING I DO, BUT, BUT IF WE DO BELIEVE THAT, WHY DO WE FEEL LIKE WE NEED THIS, THIS, UH, UM, CURB PORK CHOP THING? PORK CHOP? YEAH. 
          SO, UH, FROM A STAFF PERSPECTIVE, UH, WE FELT LIKE IT WAS EXTRA PROTECTION FOR THE NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          WE WERE VERY, UM, UH, HEIGHTENED TO AND SENSITIVE TO POTENTIAL CONCERNS. 
          AND, UM, WE ASSUMED THAT ONE OF THEM, IN ADDITION TO SEVERAL OTHER THINGS, WAS GOING TO BE TRAFFIC. 
          SO WE WANTED TO PROVIDE EXTRA PROTECTION FOR THOSE RESIDENTS TO ENSURE THAT WE'RE FORCING AND ENCOURAGING TRAFFIC TO GO BACK TO MIDWAY AND USE THAT AS THEIR PRIMARY POINT OF ACCESS INSTEAD OF TRYING TO NAVIGATE THROUGH RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          WAS THAT ADDED AFTER THE MARCH 5TH MEETING? UH, NO. 
          IT WAS ADDED BEFORE BY STAFF. 
          OKAY. 
          THANK YOU. 
          THANK YOU, DARREN. 
          UH, CAN WE GO BACK TO THE TREE MAP PLEASE? I DIDN'T THINK THAT HORSE WAS BEATEN ENOUGH. 
          SO TALK ABOUT THE TREES SOME MORE. 
          I'D LIKE TO, UM, FIRST OF ALL, COMMEND ALL OF THE WORK AND THE KNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE AND YOUR STAFF HAS ON THIS PROJECT, AND HOW MUCH THOUGHTS HAVE HAS WENT INTO THIS, THE, THE, UH, THE FOUR OR FIVE TREES ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE GYMNASIUM THAT WE TALKED ABOUT. 
          UM, I WOULD ASK WHY THEY COULDN'T GO ON THE WEST SIDE, TAKING A FEW OF THOSE PARKING SPACES INTO THAT LITTLE OPEN AREA. 
          BUT I'M NOT GONNA ASK THAT QUESTION BECAUSE I THINK YOU ALREADY THOUGHT ABOUT IT. 
          SO THAT'S, THAT'S A GOOD EXAMPLE. 
          I THINK A LOT OF CONSIDERATIONS BEEN GIVEN TO THE TREES. 
          WE DO LOVE TREES IN ADDISON AND THEY, THEY ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO THE ENVIRONMENT, SO THANK YOU FOR ALL THE WORK ON THE TREES ALREADY. 
          THAT'S, THAT'S, I'M NOT GONNA ASK THAT QUESTION. 
          I THINK THERE'D BE A GOOD ANSWER FOR IT. 
          UM, SO, UH, ON THE, UM, TRAFFIC THAT, THAT'S A CONCERN OF MINE, PROTON, IT'S JUST GONNA, IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S JUST GONNA AFFECT THE SMALL PIECE OF PROTON FROM MIDWAY GOING WEST TO, UH, THE ENTRANCE OF THAT NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          UH, BUT THAT IS A LOT. 
          UH, THERE'S A LOT OF CONGESTION FOR THAT ONE SPACE THERE. 
          COUPLE THINGS, IF YOU'RE GOING SOUTH, GOING NORTH ON MIDWAY, TAKE A LEFT ONTO PROTON, THAT'S A VERY SHORT TURN LANE OR Q LANE TO TURN LEFT. 
          UH, WHAT'S THE BACKUP LIKE THAT? WHAT DID THE TRAFFIC ANALYSIS SAY ABOUT THAT BACKUP POTENTIAL? SORRY, YOU'RE GOING NORTH ON MIDWAY, TAKE A LEFT ON PROTON TO GET OVER TO THE SCHOOL. 
          YES. 
          UM, SO I CAN TELL YOU THAT TIA DID ANALYZE ALL THE WAY INTO THE INTERSECTION OF MIDWAY ROAD. 
          UM, I'M PROBABLY GOING TO DEFER TO EITHER, OH, I'LL JUMP IN ON THAT. 
          PERFECT. 
          UH, I, AND SHANNON CAN CERTAINLY COME UP HERE WITH ANY FURTHER COMMENT, BUT I, I THINK IT KIND OF GOES BACK TO THE CONVERSATION THAT WE HAD EARLIER, THAT THIS, THEY ALREADY EXIST, EXISTS ACROSS THE STREET. 
          SO REALLY IT'S JUST A, INSTEAD OF TURNING WHILE HEADING NORTH, THEY'RE IN RIGHT NOW, THEY'RE TURNING WHILE HEADING SOUTH. 
          THEY'RE JUST GONNA BE TURNING WHILE HEADING NORTH. 
          SO IT'LL BE THE SAME QUEUE THAT EXISTS NOW. 
          SO THERE WOULDN'T BE A CHANGE ON MIDWAY BECAUSE IT'S THE SAME TRAFFIC JUST GOING THROUGH A DIFFERENT DIRECTION. 
          AND REALLY IF YOU, IF, AND THIS IS JUST AS I THINK ABOUT IT, THERE'S GONNA BE, RIGHT NOW THEY'RE IN MORE TRAFFIC AS FOLKS ARE GOING DOWN TO HIT 6 35. 
          RIGHT? AS OPPOSED TO THERE SHOULD BE LESS TRAFFIC GOING THE DIRECTION THEY'LL BE GOING TO GET THE PROTON. 
          NOW PROTON, UM, ON THE OTHER END OF PROTON, UH, HIT SPRING VALLEY OVER ON THE FARMER'S BRANCH SIDE, AND THAT'S AN ENTRANCE, ALSO MAJOR ENTRANCE, UH, FOR THE BACKSIDE, THE BACK SCHOOL. 
          UM, SO I WASN'T JUST TALKING ABOUT THE, THE SCHOOL ON, ON MIDWAY AND TURNING INTO THAT TURN LANE. 
          IT IS VERY SHORT AND 'CAUSE I TURNED THERE, UM, I MEAN LIKE THREE OR FOUR CARS AND THEN THE REST OF 'EM ARE STICKING OUT IN THE, UH, THE FAR LEFT LANE. 
          THAT'S THE MAIN TRAFFIC LANE. 
          JUST AN OBSERVATION AND WONDERED WHAT HAD BEEN CONSIDERED FOR THAT. 
          YEAH, SO I'D BE, WE HAVE SHANNON HICKS OBVIOUSLY, AND THEN WE ALSO HAVE OUR, UM, OUR INDIVIDUAL WHO REVIEWED THE, THE TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS FROM COBB FINLEY AS WELL HERE. 
          EITHER YOU WANNA TAKE IT ALL YOU CARL  NEED HERE. 
          ONE. 
          MY NAME IS CARL ROTH MEM WITH FINLEY AND ASSOCIATES. 
          UH, WE DID REVIEW THE EXISTING TRAFFIC PATTERNS THAT THEY HAD AND WHAT THEY ALSO HAVE PREDICTING WHAT, WHAT THEY, WHAT THEY WILL BE IN IN THE FUTURE WITH THE, THE TRAFFIC THAT GOES THERE. 
          THE TRAFFIC PATTERN BASICALLY REMAINS THE SAME. 
          YOU DO HAVE ABOUT A 75 TO A HUNDRED FOOT QUEUE, BUT THIS WILL ONLY TAKE PLACE DURING THE MORNING AND AFTERNOON PEAKS. 
          IT WILL NOT BE AN ALL DAY EVENT. 
          SO THIS WOULD NORMALLY ONLY HAPPEN WHEN THE SCHOOL IS IN INFECTED AND WHEN THE QUEUING TAKES PLACE. 
          AND I BELIEVE THAT'S FROM EIGHT 15 
          [02:10:01]
TO, UH, I THINK IT'S EIGHT TO EIGHT 15 IN, IN THE MORNING, IN THE AFTERNOON. 
          I THINK IT'S, UH, SOMETHING LIKE THREE 30 TO FOUR O'CLOCK. 
          YOUR PEAK HOURS ARE NORMALLY FROM SEVEN TO EIGHT AND YOUR EVENING, AFTERNOON PEAKS ARE USUALLY FROM FIVE TO SIX. 
          SO IT DOESN'T COINCIDE WITH THE ACTUAL PEAKS FOR THE CITY, THE TOWN DURING THAT TIMEFRAME. 
          SO YES, THERE WILL BE SOME, THERE WILL BE SOME POSSIBLE SPILL BACK, BUT IT WILL NOT BE FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME ACCORDING TO THE CRA ANALYSIS THAT WAS PROVIDED BY THE PEOPLE WHO DID THE, THE TIA ANALYSIS. 
          SO WE DID LOOK AT HOW LONG THE QUEUES WOULD BE, ESPECIALLY ON MIDWAY BECAUSE THAT IS ONE OF YOUR MAJOR ARTERIALS IN WITHIN THE TOWN. 
          AND WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT WAS NOT DISRUPTED OR HAD UNDUE DELAY PLACED UPON THOSE INTERSECTIONS ALONG THAT CORRIDOR. 
          OKAY, THANK YOU. 
          JUST WANNA MAKE SURE IT'S CONSIDERED AND THE EXIT ONTO, UH, PROTON ROAD WHERE THE PARK SHOP IS. 
          MM-HMM, , UH, WILL THERE BE A RIGHT TURN ONLY SIGN THERE? YES, THERE WILL BE. 
          SO THERE WILL BE, UM, I BELIEVE IT'S, I BELIEVE IT'S SHOWN ON THE SITE PLAN. 
          UH, THERE ACTUALLY BE A ONE PAINTED ON THE GROUND AND THEN THERE WILL BE A PHYSICAL SIGN. 
          OKAY. 
          AS WELL. 
          OKAY. 
          I HAD ONE MORE QUESTION. 
          TRYING TO COME UP WITH IT. 
          THAT'S ALL I HAVE FOR NOW, LI YEAH, DARREN, I THINK YOU HAD A REALLY GOOD POINT ABOUT THE TURN LANE, ESPECIALLY AS YOU'RE HEADING NORTH ON MIDWAY AND THEN TRYING TO TURN BACK TO THE WEST. 
          UM, SO I THINK REALLY MAYBE SHANNON, THIS QUESTION IS FOR YOU. 
          CAN WE EXTEND THE TIME ON THAT TURN LANE BY A LITTLE BIT IN ORDER TO BE ABLE TO ADDRESS BACKUP TRAFFIC THERE? ABSOLUTELY. 
          UH, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE WILL DO, UH, WHEN WE'RE FINISHED WITH THE SIGNALS ON MIDWAY ROAD AND THE PROJECT, WE'RE GONNA GO THROUGH AND DO A SIGNAL OPTIMIZATION OF THE WHOLE CORRIDOR, AND WE'LL TAKE THAT INTO ACCOUNT WITH THE SCHOOL. 
          AND IF WE DO OBSERVE BACKUPS OR ANY ISSUES GOING ON, WE CAN TWEAK THOSE TIMES AS WE GO THROUGH THERE. 
          GREAT. 
          THANK YOU SHANNON. 
          SURE. 
          I HAVE MY QUESTION, MAYOR. 
          THANK YOU. 
          UM, SO WILL THAT, UH, TURN LANE BE CENSORED? I'M SORRY, SAY THAT AGAIN? WILL THAT TURN LANE BE CENSORED? IT IS ON OUR CAMERA SYSTEM. 
          OKAY. 
          SO YES, IT WILL BE, UM, BE MORE REAL ON SENSOR SYSTEM. 
          YES. 
          OKAY, VERY GOOD. 
          SO THE OTHER QUESTION IS, UM, UH, CITY MANAGER GAINES, UH, ADDRESSED IT WAS IF THERE ARE TRAFFIC, THE REALLY THE BIG THING IS ABOUT TRAFFIC. 
          I KNOW IT'S A SMALL, UH, PORTION, SMALL WINDOWS, AND THAT'S, THAT'S A QUIET AREA ALREADY. 
          WE DON'T LIKE THE REASON IT'S QUIET BECAUSE THE BUILDING'S EMPTY AND THAT LEADS TO BAD THINGS IN THE FUTURE. 
          SO VERY HAPPY YOU GUYS ARE COMING. 
          VERY EXCITED ABOUT THAT. 
          IF THERE IS A TRAFFIC PROBLEM, UM, AS YOU MENTIONED WITH TCA OR OTHER, OTHER SCHOOLS AROUND, WHAT, WHAT CAN WE DO ABOUT THAT? CAN WE, UH, MAKE ADJUSTMENTS OR HAS THERE BEEN ADJUSTMENTS MADE AND WHAT SOME, WHAT ARE SOME EXAMPLES? SHANNON CAN CERTAINLY SPEAK TO SPECIFICS, BUT I MEAN, I THINK THE, THE, THE EXAMPLE WE RAISED EARLIER ON TCA WOULD BE THE MOST PRESSING ONE. 
          AND, AND SHANNON CAN SPEAK TO KIND OF THE, THE INFRASTRUCTURE CHANGES AND THINGS LIKE THAT, THE PROJECTS THAT WE HAD, BUT ALSO SIMPLE THINGS LIKE WE WENT IN THERE AND JUST CHANGED THE WAY SOME OF THE LANES OPERATE. 
          UM, GOING FROM TWO LANES TO ONE LANES IN DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS JUST BASED ON THE PATTERN THAT WE SAW FROM THE WAY THAT FOLKS WERE USING IT. 
          SO SHANNON CERTAINLY ADD ANYTHING TO THAT. 
          WE FIND THE SCHOOLS TO BE REALLY GOOD PARTNERS WITH THIS. 
          UM, THEY WORK WITH US WHEN THEY DON'T WANT THE TRAFFIC BACKUPS EITHER. 
          I MEAN, IT DOESN'T WORK WELL FOR ANYBODY. 
          SO THEY'RE GENERALLY GOOD PARTNERS, UH, TO HELP FIND SOLUTIONS. 
          UM, WE WORKED DILIGENTLY ON THIS ONE TO HELP MAKE SURE THEY HAD MORE THAN ENOUGH STACKING ON SITE SO THEY WOULD NOT SPILL OVER. 
          I THINK THERE'S PLENTY OF EXCESS HERE. 
          UH, DURING PEAK TIMES YOU WILL HAVE, YOU KNOW, CARS TURNING LEFT TO GO IN THERE, BUT IT'S NOT GONNA BE EXCESSIVE WE DON'T THINK. 
          THANK YOU. 
          I WANT ALL THE NEIGHBORS TO HEAR THAT ON VIDEO THAT IT'S A LOT OF CONSIDERATIONS GONE INTO IT AND, UM, KNOWING THAT THERE, THERE IS ADJUSTMENTS MADE AND, AND ACTIVELY CORRECTING IT AND THE SCHOOL DOESN'T WANT A BACKUP EITHER. 
          THAT GIVES ME PEACE OF MIND AND I'M SURE IT WOULD GIVE THE NEIGHBORS PEACE OF MIND TO KNOW THAT THOSE ADJUSTMENTS ARE ACTIVELY MADE. 
          THANK YOU. 
          MAYOR HALL. 
          THANK YOU DARREN. 
          OKAY. 
          AND I UNDERSTAND WE DO HAVE THE APPLICANT HERE, UH, BEN APPLEBEE FROM WESTWOOD SCHOOL, IF YOU'D LIKE TO, UH, COME FORWARD FORWARD, OH, YOU KNOW, AFTER LISTENING THIS AT THIS TIME, , BUT WE MIGHT HAVE SOME QUESTIONS. 
          OH, , . 
          YEAH. 
          NO, I UNDERSTAND. 
          IF YOU DON'T HAVE A PRESENTATION, THAT'S TOTALLY GOOD, BUT, BUT I'M CONFIDENT WE HAVE QUESTIONS. 
          ABSOLUTELY. 
          HOW IS EVERYONE TONIGHT? EXCELLENT. 
          EXCELLENT. 
          EXCELLENT. 
          F THANKS FOR BEING HERE. 
          FANTASTIC. 
          AND IF YOU DON'T MIND, UH, BEN, JUST GIVE US YOUR NAME AND YOUR ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD. 
          UH, MY NAME IS BEN APPLEBEE. 
          I LIVE AT 42 32 SAN GABRIEL DRIVE, DALLAS, TEXAS 7 5 2 2 9. 
          THANK YOU. 
          WHO HAS 
          [02:15:01]
QUESTIONS FOR, FOR BEN MARLON HERE. 
          I'VE GOT A QUESTION. 
          UH, BEN, I DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN ANSWER THIS FOR, UH, MAYBE THIS IS A QUESTION FOR MIDWAY ATRIUMS, MAYBE THE APPLICANT, I'M NOT SURE, BUT I'M SURE YOU HEARD ME EARLIER. 
          UH, WOULD, WOULD, UH, THE DEVELOPER, THE APPLICANT, WHAT HAVE YOU BE OPEN TO PLANNING ANOTHER TREE IN THE GAP THAT I MENTIONED EARLIER, UH, BETWEEN TREE 8 8 4 0 4 AND 8 4 0 5 TO, TO PROVIDE THAT BUFFER FOR THE TOWN HOME THAT THAT IS, UH, 4 1 3 2 EASTMAN WAY. 
          UH, LESLIE, WOULD YOU MIND INDICATING ON THE PLAN EXACTLY WHERE THAT OKAY, YEAH. 
          UM, COUNCIL MEMBER, UH, WOULD YOU CONFIRM THAT APPROXIMATELY WHERE MY CARER IS? IS THAT WHERE YOU'RE REFERRING TO? IT'S ONE OVER, BUT I WILL TELL YOU THIS, THAT, THAT, THAT WHAT I'M SEEING ON THE TREES RIGHT THERE. 
          YOU GOT TWO TREES RIGHT NEXT TO ONE ANOTHER. 
          NOW IF YOU GO TO YOUR RIGHT, GO TO YOUR RIGHT. 
          SORRY. 
          NEAR THE RIGHT. 
          ALRIGHT. 
          UM, SO DID I GET THERE? YOU'RE NOT GONNA SEE IT ON THIS MAP BECAUSE WHAT IT SHOWS IS, IS, UH, IT SHOWS PROPER TREE COVERAGE. 
          AND WHAT I'VE FOUND ON THE GROUND IS IT DOESN'T, UH, MATCH UP WITH THIS MAP. 
          SO IF YOU GO OUT TO THE PROPERTY, UM, AND YOU GO TO CREATE IN BETWEEN 8, 4 0 4 AND 8 4 0 5, WHAT YOU'RE GONNA SEE IS A GAP. 
          UM, UH, AND THAT'S WHERE I'M REFERRING TO. 
          WE'RE TALKING ABOUT ONE TREE, I THINK YOU CAN SEE IT ON SLIDE TWO. 
          IF YOU GO, LESLIE, IF YOU GO TO SLIDE TWO AND THEN ZOOM IN, YOU CAN SEE THE GAP I GOT, I THINK IN TREES WHERE IT SAYS EASTMAN WAY, MARLON, CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG, IF YOU ZOOM IN ON THAT, UH, AIRCRAFT WHERE IT SAYS WAY ON THE SLIDE, IF YOU KEEP ZOOMING IN EASTMAN WAY. 
          YES. 
          IS THAT IT, MARLON? CORRECT. 
          THAT RIGHT THERE. 
          SO YOU CAN SEE THERE'S A HUGE GAP TO HARD TO SEE 'CAUSE OF THE MAP, BUT IF YOU LOOK AT AN AERIAL GOOGLE MAP, SOMETHING LIKE THAT, YOU'LL YEAH, YOU'LL SEE IT. 
          THAT'S OFF. 
          AND I, I DON'T WANNA GET TOO PER ONE TREE. 
          UM, YEAH, I MEAN, I CAN CONFIDENTLY SAY, ARE Y'ALL OPEN THAT, THAT BETWEEN THE SCHOOL AND THE PROPERTY OWNER, UM, WE CAN, WE CAN AGREE TO PLANT A TREE THERE. 
          WE'RE OBVIOUSLY GONNA HAVE TO WORK WITH OUR LANDSCAPE, UH, EXPERTS TO, TO SEE WHAT WHAT WILL THRIVE IN THAT AREA LONG TERM. 
          UM, BUT, BUT YES, WE'RE, WE'RE CERTAINLY OPEN TO THAT. 
          THANK YOU. 
          OTHER QUESTIONS FOR BEN, NANCY? YES. 
          UM, COULD YOU JUST GIVE US A, A LITTLE BIT OF, UM, INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT YOU, WHAT THE AFTER HOURS ACTIVITIES MIGHT BE IN THE GYMNASIUM AND KIND OF WHAT YOU WOULD EXPECT ON ATTENDANCE? YEAH. 
          UM, JUST USING THE, THE SCHOOL'S EXISTING PROGRAMMING, UM, LIKE LAST YEAR THEY HAD, THEY HAD FIVE HOME BASKETBALL GAMES DURING THE WEEK. 
          UM, I DON'T KNOW THE EXACT DAYS. 
          UH, LARRY LU WITH WESTWOOD SCHOOL IS HERE. 
          HE'S THE ATHLETIC DIRECTOR, CAN SPEAK MORE SPECIFICALLY TO THAT. 
          UM, OUTSIDE OF THAT, YOU KNOW, MOST OF THE NIGHTTIME ACTIVITIES, I MEAN, THERE, THERE ARE THEATER PERFORMANCES THAT WILL, UH, HAPPEN THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. 
          UM, NOT MANY HOW MANY? FOUR NIGHTS? YEAH. 
          FOUR NIGHTS, UH, THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE SCHOOL YEAR, UM, FOR THEATER. 
          UM, BUT THINGS LIKE, UH, LIKE, YOU KNOW, THE SCHOOL AUCTION AND PROM AND THINGS LIKE THAT ARE, ARE OFFSITE. 
          SO ANYTHING THAT, UM, IS GOING TO DRIVE, UM, UH, UH, LARGE AMOUNTS AT NIGHT IS, IS IS RELATIVELY NIL. 
          UM, WESTWOOD COMPETES IN TAPS SINGLE A, UM, AND SO THE SIZE OF THOSE SCHOOLS, THE, THE AMOUNT OF ATTENDEES AT THOSE GAMES ARE NOT EXCESSIVE. 
          UM, WHAT WOULD YOU SAY ON A, ON AN AVERAGE ATTENDANCE, LARRY? WHEN YEAH, I MEAN, LET'S, YEAH, LET'S SWING FOR THE FENCES ON A BIG NIGHT. 
          40. 
          YEAH. 
          A BIG THING LIKE HOMECOMING. 
          IT'S 40. 
          OKAY. 
          40. 
          YEAH. 
          YEAH. 
          YEAH. 
          OKAY. 
          WE GET TICKETS IF WANTS TO THAT'S RIGHT. 
          TICKETS, IF YOU NEED 'EM. 
          YEAH. 
          GET TICKETS. 
          THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 
          YEAH, GQ. 
          THANK YOU MAYOR. 
          UH, BEN, UH, THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE TONIGHT. 
          ABSOLUTELY. 
          I WAS AT THE MARCH 5TH MEETING, THAT WAS, I, UH, I WAS IMPRESSED BY THE PREPARATION THAT YOU DID FOR THAT. 
          UM, I'D LIKE TO HEAR 
          [02:20:01]
THIS EVENING A LITTLE BIT ABOUT, UH, ANY CONVERSATIONS OR, UH, THAT YOU MAY HAVE HAD WITH THE, UH, TENANT AT THE SCHOOL. 
          UH, ACKNOWLEDGING THAT THERE MAY BE SOME ALCOHOL SALES IF THAT NEARBY IN THAT HOTEL, IF IT IS RECONSTITUTED, AND WHAT THOSE CONVERSATIONS WERE AND, AND, AND THE ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF THAT. 
          WE HAVE NOT HAD, UM, A A LOT OF CONVERSATIONS AROUND IT UNDER TONIGHT, UNDERSTANDING THAT THE ADDISON CODE IS DIFFERENT THAN OTHER MUNICIPALITIES THAT, THAN THAN EVERY OTHER MUNICIPALITY THAT I'VE DEVELOPED. 
          UH, YOU KNOW, IT, IT, MY MY, MY BACKGROUND IS IN REAL ESTATE DEVELOPMENT. 
          AND SO WHETHER IT'S COP BELL, FRISCO, PLANO, ALLEN, DALLAS, GRAND PRAIRIE, LIKE, THERE'S ALWAYS, UH, AN ORDINANCE ABOUT A CERTAIN NUMBER OF FEET FROM THE SCORE OF DOOR OF A SCHOOL. 
          BUT THAT IS CERTAINLY A CONVERSATION THAT WE CAN HAVE. 
          AND IF, YOU KNOW, IF IT GETS REPURPOSES A HOTEL WITH A HOTEL BAR, THE, THE AMOUNT OF, UM, ISSUE THAT I BELIEVE THAT THE SCHOOL WOULD HAVE WOULD BE MINIMAL AS OPPOSED TO A LARGE ENTERTAINMENT VENUE WHERE PEOPLE ARE, YOU KNOW, DRINKING HEAVILY DURING THE DAY OR DRIVING THROUGH PARKING LOTS OR THINGS LIKE THAT. 
          SO A HOTEL, HOTEL BAR IS GONNA HAVE LESS, LESS AMOUNT OF, OF PEOPLE THERE. 
          AND I, I'M, I'M CERTAIN, UM, ONE THING I'M CERTAIN OF IS THAT WE WILL TALK ABOUT IT AND WE CAN REPORT BACK TO THE COUNCIL, BUT I DON'T BELIEVE KNOWING LARCI, THAT THAT WOULD BE TOO MUCH OF A, AN ISSUE. 
          WHAT DO YOU, WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK? IT'S IN WALKING HERE. 
          OKAY, GOOD. 
          PERFECT. 
          FANTASTIC. 
          SO YEAH, AS LONG AS, AS LONG AS THE, THE STAFF AND ADMINISTRATION CAN UTILIZE IT, YEAH, I THINK WE'LL BE OKAY. 
          . 
          SO, SO IS THAT A CONCERN THAT MAYOR, UH, I'M ASKING HERE FOR SOME CONVERSATION AMONG COUNCIL IF THAT'S A COMFORT LEVEL THAT WE HAVE UNDERSTANDING THAT, THAT THAT MAY BE RECONSTITUTED AND UNDERSTANDING THAT THE TENANT IS ACKNOWLEDGING THAT. 
          WELL, I, I THINK FOR, FOR, FOR US, YOU KNOW, IT'S, WE DON'T KNOW WHAT'S WHAT THAT ABSOLUTELY, IT'S GONNA LOOK LIKE A YEAR OR TWO YEARS DOWN THE ROAD. 
          UM, SO, SO FOR ME, I THINK IT'S MORE A MATTER OF THE COMFORT LEVEL OF THE APPLICANT, RIGHT? WITH WITH, WITH THE UNCERTAINTY FOR THEM. 
          MM-HMM. 
           NOT KNOWING WHAT'S GOING TO BE THERE. 
          UH, YOU KNOW, IF THEY'RE COMFORTABLE WITH THAT, THEN, THEN I AM. 
          THAT'S WHERE I AM WITH IT. 
          I DON'T KNOW WHERE ANYBODY ELSE IS. 
          YEAH, I WOULD SAY THAT I WOULD AGREE WITH THAT. 
          UH, IN FACT, THERE IS A HOTEL THAT'S LITERALLY RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET, THE COURTYARD BY MARRIOTT IS RIGHT THERE OPERATIONAL, AND THEY DO HAVE, THEY DO SERVE ALCOHOL. 
          SO, UM, Y'ALL KNOW THAT. 
          AND YOU'RE OKAY WITH THAT, I ASSUME? WELL, AND, AND WE KNOW THAT IT IS A HIGH PROFILE SITE AND THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF EYES ON IT, AND WE KNOW THAT NOTHING'S GONNA GO THERE THAT ISN'T VETTED HEAVILY BY THE CITY OF ADDISON. 
          AND SO WE, WE HAVE CONFIDENCE IN THAT FOR SURE. 
          YEAH, I'M TO, I'M TOTALLY IN AGREEANCE WITH WHAT YOU'RE STATING WHAT SHE JUST BROUGHT UP, THAT IT'S MORE OF THE ONUS. 
          THE SCHOOL HAS MORE NERVES THAN WE WOULD I WOULD THANK YOU DAN. 
          DARREN, I DID HEAR CLEARLY THAT THE, LESLIE SAID THAT, UH, T ABC'S SHOWS THERE'S NO VETO FOR THE SCHOOL OF WHAT GOES THERE. 
          THERE'S A CONVERSATION AND NOTIFICATION, BUT NO VETO. 
          IT COULD BE THAT IN THAT CROWN PLAZA, SOME ENTERTAINMENT VENUE, LIKE A PUTT SHACK COULD GO THERE. 
          I MEAN THAT, AND THAT'S PRIME PROPERTY. 
          SO WE JUST, EVERYBODY NEEDS TO BE HEADS UP ABOUT THAT. 
          THAT'S ALL I WOULD SAY. 
          OKAY. 
          THANK YOU, NANCY. 
          UM, I'M, I'M COMFORTABLE WITH THE FACT THAT THE APPLICANT IS AWARE OF THE REGULATIONS, AND SO THEY, UH, AS YOU JUST SAID, THE, THE ONUS IS ON ON THEM. 
          AND I WILL SAY THAT THE, THE ONE CONVERSATION THAT WE HAVE HAD IS, UM, HEATHER EY ACKNOWLEDGED. 
          SHE GOES, WE UNDERSTAND IT'S PRIVATE PROPERTY, WE UNDERSTAND THAT IT'S OWNED AND THAT SOMEBODY'S GONNA WORK WITH THE CITY TO DEVELOP IT. 
          AND, YOU KNOW, WE WANT TO BE GOOD NEIGHBORS AND WE WANT IT TO BE ACCRETIVE FOR THE CITY AND FOR THE SCHOOL. 
          AND SO I, THERE IS A LOT OF, UM, REASONABLE APPROACH WITH THE LEADERSHIP OF THE SCHOOL. 
          I'VE, I'VE LEARNED IN THE MANY YEARS WORKING WITH THEM. 
          VERY GOOD. 
          QQ. 
          THAT'S IT, MAYOR. 
          THANK YOU, BEN. 
          OKAY. 
          UM, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR BEN? I JUST HAD A COUPLE OF QUICK QUESTIONS. 
          BEN, DO YOU ALL HAVE ANY SCHOOL VEHICLES AT ALL? VANS, BUSES, ANYTHING LIKE THAT? TWO VANS. 
          TWO VANS JUST FOR FIELD TRIPS OR WHEREVER SUPPORTING WHATEVER. 
          OKAY. 
          AND ALSO, WHAT ABOUT, DO YOU DO ONSITE SECURITY AT ALL? THE SCHOOL DOES NOT HAVE A DEDICATED ON ONSITE. 
          CAN YOU HIT THAT BUTTON AGAIN? YOU KNOW, YEAH, THERE YOU GO, MAN. 
          ME AND TECHNOLOGY, UM, THE SCHOOL DOES NOT HAVE A DEDICATED ONSITE SECURITY GUARD, BUT THE, THE PARK, THE MIDWAY ATRIUMS ONE, TWO, 
          [02:25:01]
AND THREE PARK HAS SECURITY THAT IS, THAT IS, UM, CONTRACTED FOR THE, THE ENTIRE PARK. 
          OKAY. 
          YEAH. 
          AND Y'ALL ARE GOOD. 
          Y'ALL ARE GOOD WITH THAT? YES, THEY ARE , YES. 
          ALL VERY GOOD. 
          UH, DARREN, UM, CURIOUS ON THE ORIENTATION OF THE MAIN BUILDING, YOU'RE ORIENTED TOWARDS, LIKE THE BACK OF THE PROPERTY, WHICH FACES THE NEIGHBORHOOD OVER THERE, JUST, UH, NOT UNDERSTANDING WHY IT'S ORIENTED. 
          I, I DID SEE THE GREEN, THE, THE LAWN ON THAT SIDE AND THAT MAYBE THE REASONING YEAH. 
          WHEN YOU, UM, WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE OPPORTUNITIES AND REALLY IT'S, IT'S AS MUCH CITY DRIVEN AS IT IS ANYTHING. 
          BUT WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE OPPORTUNITIES FOR AN ENTRANCE LANE, THE ONLY SIDE IS THE WEST SIDE. 
          THERE'S MUCH MORE SPACE ON THAT SIDE. 
          YEAH, ABSOLUTELY. 
          AND THEN TO POINT OUT, I HAD NOT CONSIDERED THE ORIENTATION OF THE GYM. 
          YOU KNOW, IF A GYM'S ACTIVE AND PEOPLE ARE CHEERING AND THEY'RE GOING IN AND OUT, UM, I SEE, UH, THAT THE GYM ORIENTATION IS TO THE NORTH. 
          SO IT'S FACING THE OTHER BUILDING, THE ENTRANCE, THE MAIN ENTRANCE WE HAVE, WE HAVE, UH, IT'S ON SLIDE, WE HAVE FOUR 11. 
          YEAH. 
          BUT THE MAIN ENTRANCE WHERE PEOPLE WOULD BE DIRECTED IN AND OUT OF, IF YOU GO BACK TO THE, THE SLIDE ON THE UPPER RIGHT, THE POINT, IF YOU GO BACK TO THE SLIDE THAT, THAT, THAT SHOWS THE ACTUAL FLOOR PLAN OF THE GYM. 
          ALL RIGHT. 
          SO RIGHT THERE, SO YOU HAVE MULTIPLE ENTRIES. 
          UM, YOU KNOW, YOU, YOU HAVE ENTRY ON TWO, TWO ON THE WEST SIDE. 
          YOU HAVE ONE ON THE NORTH SIDE, AND YOU HAVE ONE ON THE SOUTH SIDE THAT, THAT YEAH. 
          AND, AND ONE ON THE EAST SIDE BETWEEN THE YEAH. 
          THE RESTROOM. 
          SO YOU HAVE ENTRANCES ON, ON EACH SIDE. 
          UM, AND THAT IS REALLY TO ACCOMMODATE THE FACT THAT YOU HAVE PARKING 360 DEGREES AROUND THE GYM. 
          SO THERE WAS A LOT OF THOUGHT THAT WENT INTO WHERE PEOPLE WOULD PARK AND HOW YOU MOST EFFICIENTLY BRING PEOPLE IN. 
          YOU WOULDN'T HAVE A MAIN ENTRANCE FOR SECURITY PURPOSES OF PEOPLE ENTERING AND WHAT THEY'RE BRINGING IN. 
          I JUST WAS CURIOUS IF THAT WOULD JUST A FLOW STANDPOINT. 
          TO ME, IT SEEMS LIKE IT WOULD BE A NOISE. 
          CAN YOU, WOULD YOU MIND PULLING UP THE, THE, THE, THE, UM, THE ENTIRE SITE? SLIDE 11? YEAH. 
          OKAY. 
          SO IF, IF YOU LOOK AT, AT THE, THE PARKING, IT, IT REALLY DOES SUGGEST, UM, YOU KNOW, IT SUGGESTS AN ENTRY FROM, FROM THE SOUTH, UH, AN ENTRY FROM THE WEST. 
          THOSE ARE THE TWO PLACES THAT ARE GOING TO, TO GET THE MOST FOOT TRAFFIC. 
          JUST LOOKING AT, AT WHERE PEOPLE WILL PARK. 
          UM, ESPECIALLY GIVEN, YOU KNOW, THE PAVLOVIAN RESPONSE FROM THE PARENTS OF ALWAYS ENTERING AT THE SAME PLACE ON PROTON, RIGHT BY THE, THE PORK SHOP. 
          THEY'RE GOING TO ENTER RIGHT THERE. 
          THEY'RE GONNA DRIVE DOWN TO THESE STALLS. 
          IF THOSE ARE FULL, THEY'RE GONNA PARK ON THE, YOU KNOW, PROBABLY OVER HERE ON THE, THE NORTH SIDE AND COME THROUGH ONE OF THOSE TWO ENTRIES. 
          SO I WOULD SAY THE LION SHARE OF YOUR PARKING IS GOING TO COME IN THROUGH THOSE TWO AREAS. 
          AND I'M SURE THAT AS WE GET CLOSER AND THE SCHOOL THINKS ABOUT, YOU KNOW, THE, UM, EXPOSURE OF HAVING FOUR OPEN ENTRIES, THAT THEY WILL START TO DIRECT PEOPLE TO CERTAIN ENTRIES AND LOCK OFF OTHERS. 
          JUST AS, AS WE START TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE, THE, THE HUMAN BEHAVIOR OF COMING TO THOSE GAMES AND EVENTS. 
          THANK YOU, MAN. 
          OKAY. 
          I JUST WANTED TO SAY THANK YOU FOR COMING TO, TO ADDISON. 
          'CAUSE I'M A BIG PROPONENT FOR EDUCATION AND GIVING OUR RESIDENTS MORE ACCESS FOR THEIR CHILDREN OR RAISING CHILDREN TO HAVE A PLACE TO PUT THEIR KIDS IN SCHOOL. 
          SO THANK YOU. 
          OKAY. 
          VERY GOOD. 
          UH, NO, NO OTHERS. 
          WELL, THIS IS A PUBLIC HEARING AND IT'S AN OPPORTUNITY FOR FOLKS IN THE PUBLIC TO ADDRESS THE COUNCIL. 
          AND, UH, THANK YOU, BEN. 
          YOU'RE WELCOME TO HAVE A SEAT. 
          THANKS SO MUCH. 
          APPRECIATE IT GUYS. 
          UH, ADDRESS THE COUNCIL ON THIS ITEM IN PARTICULAR, AND I DON'T HAVE ANY CARDS ON THAT, EXCEPT I DO, I DO KNOW THAT ANNA MARIE TAYLOR WITH KIMBERLY HORN IS AVAILABLE FOR QUESTIONS, BUT IF THERE'S ANYBODY THAT WOULD LIKE TO ADDRESS THE COUNCIL ALONG THIS ITEM, YOU CAN PLEASE COME FORWARD AT THIS TIME. 
          SEEING NONE, I WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND I'LL ENTERTAIN A MOTION. 
          MAYOR, I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION. 
          OKAY. 
          A SECOND. 
          YES, SIR. 
          HOLD ON. 
          I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION. 
          HOLD ON. 
          MAKE A MOTION. 
          GQ. 
          YES, SIR. 
          THANK YOU, MAYOR. 
          MAYOR, I'D LIKE TO RECOMMEND, UH, MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE REQUEST WITH THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS. 
          A PHOTOMETRIC PLAN SHALL BE SUBMITTED WITH THE BUILDING PERMIT TO ENSURE EXTERIOR LIGHTING IS PROPERLY SHIELDED AND DIRECTED AWAY FROM ADJACENT RESIDENT PROPERTIES. 
          THE PROPOSED PERIMETER SECURITY FENCING SHALL BE CONSTRUCTED OF IRON AND BE SIX TO EIGHT FEET IN HEIGHT. 
          UH, THE UPDATED 
          [02:30:01]
DUMPSTER LOCATION AS UH, DESCRIBED BY STAFF THIS EVENING SHOULD BE INCLUDED. 
          AND, UM, AN ADDED TREE AT THE WEST PERIMETER OF THE SITE BE ADDED. 
          THAT WAS ONE TREE. 
          OKAY. 
          THAT WAS THE UNDERSTANDING. 
          YES, SIR. 
          ALRIGHT, VERY GOOD. 
          WE HAVE A MOTION, LET ME JUST CLARIFY THAT AS THE MOTION, UH, TO APPROVE WITH THE SUGGESTED, UH, RECOMMENDATIONS FOR, FOR CONDITIONS FROM THE, FROM THE STAFF FOR THOSE TWO AND THE PHOTOMETRIC PLAN AND THE SECURITY FENCING, AND THEN THE, THE RELOCATION OF THE DUMPSTER, AND THEN ALSO ADDING ONE TREE ON THE WESTERN PERIMETER. 
          IS THERE A SECOND? I'D LIKE SECOND FROM EILEEN. 
          ANY DISCUSSION? MAYOR, I'VE GOT, UH, A LITTLE, LITTLE DISCUSSION I'D LIKE TO SHARE. 
          WE HAD A COMMUNITY MEETING OVER TOWN HOMES IN OF ADDISON AND LATA LAST WEEK WHERE WE HAD 18 PEOPLE SHOW UP. 
          AND, AND SO WE WALKED AND TALKED WITH THAT. 
          BEING NEXT DOOR IS GREAT OPPORTUNITY, UM, TO BRING OUR, OUR RESIDENTS UP TO SPEED. 
          HERE ARE THEIR CONCERNS AND SO FORTH. 
          AND, AND I THINK WITH THIS MOTION, IT, IT COVERS, UM, WHAT WE WOULD, WHAT WE HAD TALKED ABOUT AND WHAT WE'D HOPED. 
          THE ONLY THING IT, IT DOESN'T COVER, UM, IS THE TAKING THE LEFT OUT ON PROTON AT THAT ONE AREA THAT WE'RE CALLING THE EGRESS AREA. 
          SO, UM, I'M HOPEFUL THAT, UH, IF, IF THAT DOES BECOME A CONCERN DOWN THE ROAD, THAT WE AS A TOWN MIGHT, MIGHT LOOK AT THAT MEDIAN A LITTLE BIT MORE, UM, AND SEE, SEE WHAT WE CAN DO TO CHANGE THAT, THAT BEHAVIOR. 
          BECAUSE IF IT BECOMES MORE THAN FOUR OR SOMETHING CRAZY, UM, IT, IT CAN CAUSE TRAFFIC ISSUES FOR OUR RESIDENTS COMING OUTTA BERKELEY. 
          UM, AND, AND THOSE, THOSE, THOSE ISSUES ARE EXACERBATED WHEN FOLKS RUN OUR STOP OUR STOP SIGNS, UM, ESPECIALLY LIKE, UM, UH, PEABODY, PEABODY LAYING IN PROTON. 
          SO THOSE ARE REAL CONCERNS AND I REALIZE THAT'S NOT PART OF THE ZONING, BUT, BUT I HOPE THAT WE WILL KEEP AN OPEN MIND IF THIS DOES SURFACE AS A, AS A CONCERN. 
          YEAH, AND I APPRECIATE THAT COMMENT, MARLON, THAT WE, WE DO NEED TO STAY ON TOP OF THOSE THINGS AND MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE, WE'RE WATCHING THOSE IN CASE SOMETHING DOES. 
          IF IF THAT TRAFFIC STUDY DOESN'T WORK OUT THE WAY WE ANTICIPATE, THEN I'M SURE WE CAN COME UP WITH SOME SOLUTION TO PUT SOME SORT OF OBSTACLE TO KEEP THAT FROM HAPPENING. 
          YEAH. 
          AND OUR, OUR RESIDENTS ARE, ARE, ARE WELCOMING, UH, WESTWOOD SCHOOL. 
          YES, FOR SURE. 
          ALRIGHT, THANK YOU FOR THAT, MARLENE. 
          ANY OF THE DISCUSSION WE HAVE MOTION AND A SECOND. 
          ALL IN FAVOR? AYE. 
          AYE. 
          AYE. 
          ANY OPPOSED? ALRIGHT. 
          MOTION IS APPROVED. 
          CONGRATULATIONS AND WELCOME TO ADDISON. 
          BIG MOVE ACROSS THE ROAD. 
          AND Y'ALL ARE WELCOME TO HANG OUT WITH US THE REST OF THE EVENING, BUT IF YOU WANNA LEAVE, WE WON'T, WE WON'T BE OFFENDED. 
          . 
          ALRIGHT, NOW WE GO ON TO ITEM NUMBER 
          [a.  Present, discuss, and consider action on an Ordinance amending the Town’s Annual Budget for the Fiscal Year Ending September 30, 2024, to reallocate personnel costs in the General Fund and provide funding for personnel, equipment, and contractual services in the Parks Department, radio system maintenance, agenda management and strategic planning software, audio and video equipment, prior year encumbrances, Police vehicle upfitting, contractual services for ambulance revenue recovery and auditing, and 911 Grant.]
SIX, ITEMS FOR INDIVIDUAL CONSIDERATION. 
          THEY'RE ALL LEAVING. 
          I CAN'T BELIEVE IT. 
          . 
          ALL RIGHT. 
          ITEM SIX A PRESENT, DISCUSS AND CONSIDER ACTION ON AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE TOWN'S ANNUAL BUDGET FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING SEPTEMBER 30TH, 2024, TO REALLOCATE PERSONNEL FUNDS IN THE GENERAL FUND AND PROVIDE FUNDING FOR PERSONNEL EQUIPMENT AND CONTRACTUAL SERVICES IN THE PARKS DEPARTMENT, RADIO SYSTEM MAINTENANCE, AGENDA MANAGEMENT AND STRATEGIC PLANNING SOFTWARE, AUDIO AND VIDEO EQUIPMENT PRIOR YEAR, ENCUMBRANCES, POLICE VEHICLE UPFITTING, CONTRACTUAL SERVICES FOR AMBULANCE, REVENUE RECOVERY AND AUDITING. 
          AND 9 1 1 GRANT. 
          STEVEN. 
          GREAT. 
          THANK YOU. 
          UH, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. 
          STEPHEN GLICKMAN, CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER, AND THIS IS OUR FISCAL YEAR 2024 MIDYEAR BUDGET AMENDMENT. 
          THIS IS THE FIRST BUDGET AMENDMENT OF FISCAL YEAR 2024. 
          UH, SO JUST A REMINDER OF WHAT OUR PROCESS IS RE REGARDING BUDGET AMENDMENTS. 
          UH, SO, UH, THEY ARE AN ACCEPTED PRACTICE. 
          IT MEANS THAT WE'RE ACTIVELY MONITORING, MONITORING AND MANAGING OUR FISCAL AFFAIRS. 
          IT HELPS TO MITIGATE IMPACTS OF CHANGES IN CIRCUMSTANCES, AND THEY ARE TRANSPARENT. 
          AND THEN THE TOWN'S SPECIFIC BUDGET AMENDMENT POLICY IS THAT, UH, TRANSFERS BETWEEN INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNTS WITHIN A DEPARTMENT CAN BE APPROVED BY MYSELF. 
          THE CFO UH, TRANSFERS BETWEEN DEPARTMENTS OF LESS THAN 5% CHANGE, UH, CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED WITH APPROVAL OF THE CITY MANAGER. 
          AND THEN ANY TRANSFERS BETWEEN FUNDS ARE MORE THAN A 5% CHANGE, UH, MUST BE APPROVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL. 
          SO MOVING INTO WHAT IS WITHIN THE PROPOSED, UH, BUDGET AMENDMENT. 
          UH, SO FIRST I'M GONNA START, UH, WITHIN THE GENERAL FUND. 
          IF YOU REMEMBER, UH, WHEN WE, WHEN WE DID THE BUDGET PROCESS, THERE WAS A 5%, UH, BUDGET FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF A COMPENSATION MARKET STUDY. 
          UH, SO WE GOT THE RESULTS OF THAT STUDY, UH, 
          [02:35:01]
IN JANUARY AND IT WAS IMPLEMENTED. 
          SO THIS BUDGET AMENDMENT IN, IN INCLUDES REALLOCATION BECAUSE SOME OF THE DEPARTMENTS WERE MORE PRIMARILY THE POLICE DEPARTMENT. 
          SO THIS IS PRIMARILY REALLOCATING, UH, SOME PERSONNEL FUNDS FROM, UH, OTHER DEPARTMENTS, UH, THAT WEREN'T AS MUCH AS WHAT WAS BUDGETED TO THE POLICE DEPARTMENT. 
          UH, SO YOU CAN SEE, UH, SOME OF THOSE CHANGES. 
          CITY MANAGER'S, OFFICE, HR DEPARTMENT, FIRE DEPARTMENT DEVELOPMENT SERVICES, UH, POLICE DEPARTMENT. 
          UH, THE NET OF ALL OF THOSE ARE ZERO CHANGE TO THE OVERALL GENERAL FUND BUDGET. 
          IT'S JUST REALLOCATING THAT PERSONNEL, UH, TO ALIGN WITH THE RESULTS OF THAT COMPENSATION STUDY. 
          UH, THEN OTHER EXPENDITURES WITHIN THE GENERAL FUND, UH, ARE THE AGENDA AND ALSO THE STRATEGIC PLANNING SOFTWARE, UH, IN THE CITY MANAGER'S OFFICE OF $50,000, UH, WITHIN THE PARKS DEPARTMENT. 
          UM, AND YOU HAVE, UH, UH, AN, AN AGREEMENT THAT WAS APPROVED AS PART OF THE, UM, CONSENT AGENDA, UH, FOR THE MAINTENANCE LANDSCAPE MAINTENANCE, UH, AND, AND A HYBRID APPROACH AS PROPOSED AS PART OF THIS BUDGET AMENDMENT AND INCLUDES PERSONNEL FOR TWO, UH, NEW GROUNDSKEEPERS, UH, THE INCREASED COST OF THAT LANDSCAPE, MAINTENANCE CONTRACT FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE YEAR, AND THEN CAPITAL OUTLAY FOR THOSE, UH, UH, NEW, UH, PERSONNEL, UH, RELATED TO THAT. 
          SO THAT'S INCLUDED IN THE BUDGET AMENDMENT HERE, THE TOTAL OF THOSE THREE OR $180,000. 
          AND THEN EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS, UH, SYSTEM MAINTENANCE FOR THE HARRIS RADIO, UH, SYSTEM OF 43, UH, $44,733. 
          UH, SO THE TOTAL OF THOSE ARE $274,733, UH, WHICH WE WERE PROPOSING TO OFFSET WITH AN INCREASE IN SALES TAX REVENUE, UM, WHICH SELLS TAXES, UH, TRENDING, UH, VERY WELL FOR US SO FAR THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. 
          AND THEN WITHIN THE PEG FUND. 
          AND THE PEG FUND IS A 1% FRANCHISE FEE, WHICH WE, WE DON'T TALK A LOT ABOUT, BUT IT IS SPECIFIC TO, UH, THE PRODUCTION OF, UH, PRIMARILY THE CITY COUNCIL MEETINGS. 
          SO, UH, THAT FRANCHISE FEE CAN ONLY BE USED TO, UH, PURCHASE, UH, AUDIO AND VIDEO EQUIPMENT FOR THAT PURPOSE. 
          UH, SO WE HAD A BUDGET IN THIS FUND. 
          UH, WE, UM, NEED TO INCREASE THAT BY ABOUT $12,000. 
          THAT'S THE AVAILABLE FUNDS THAT WE HAVE LESS, LESS LEFT IN THIS FUND. 
          UH, AND THOSE ARE FOR IMPROVEMENTS MADE PRIMARILY TO, UH, THIS ROOM. 
          AND THEN THE ADJACENT WORK SESSION ROOM, UH, THAT WE HAVE. 
          UH, AND THEN IN THE SELF-FUNDED SPECIAL PROJECTS FUND, AS I MENTIONED, WE HAD $12,000 OF PEG FUNDS AVAILABLE. 
          WE NEED AN, UH, AN ADDITIONAL 30,000 FROM THE SELF-FUNDED SPECIAL PROJECTS FUND FOR THOSE AUDIO AND VIDEO EQUIPMENT IMPROVEMENTS. 
          UM, ADDITIONALLY WE HAVE, UH, TASK PROFESSIONAL SERVICES TASK IS THE TECH TEXAS AMBULANCE SUPPLEMENTAL PAYMENT PROGRAM. 
          THAT'S A MOUTHFUL. 
          UH, BUT THAT'S BASICALLY A PROGRAM THAT ALLOWS US TO RECOVER, UH, SOME, SOME REVENUE RELATED TO CHARITY, MEDICARE, MEDICAID, UH, SERVICES. 
          WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT AMOUNT IS UNTIL THE BEGINNING OF OCTOBER. 
          SO THE BUDGET'S ALREADY BEEN ADOPTED, UH, BUT WE GOT A LITTLE BIT OVER $200,000 RELATED TO, UH, THAT, UH, REVENUE RECOVERY EFFORT. 
          UH, AND THEN THIS IS TO PAY THAT SERVICE PROVIDER THAT GOES OUT AND GETS THOSE FUNDS FOR US. 
          AND THERE'S ALSO AN AUDIT REQUIREMENT THIS YEAR. 
          SO THERE'S SOME FUNDS, UH, IN THERE FOR THAT. 
          UH, THAT TOTAL IS $40,000. 
          AND THEN WE HAVE PRIOR YEAR ENCUMBRANCES, AND THESE WOULD'VE BEEN PROJECTS THAT WERE APPROVED IN PRIOR YEARS AND, UH, HAD FUNDS AVAILABLE STILL THAT WERE NOT COMPLETELY, UH, EXPENDED. 
          UH, WE HAVE THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ABOUT 430,000, UH, THE UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE, UH, 20,000, UH, THE THEATER STUDY OF 60,000, UH, THE, UH, ATHLETIC CLUB FITNESS WALL TREATMENTS, ABOUT 179,000. 
          AND THE FINANCIAL IMPACT STUDY THAT WE DID FOR THE TRANSIT-ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT OF 4,200. 
          UH, SO IN TOTAL, UH, THE PROPOSED BUDGET AMENDMENT THERE FOR THE SELF-FUNDED SPECIAL PROJECTS FUND, UH, $763,029, AND THEN IN THE SURF FUND. 
          AND THE SURF FUND IS OUR CAPITAL EQUIPMENT REPLACEMENT FUND. 
          UH, SO THIS IS WHERE WE'RE SETTING ASIDE FUNDS FOR, UH, ALL OF OUR VEHICLE AND EQUIPMENT PURCHASES. 
          UH, SO THERE WERE SOME PRIOR YEAR ENCUMBRANCES, UH, WITHIN THIS FUND WITHIN GENERAL SERVICES, AND THAT'S PRIMARILY RELATED TO, UH, UH, GENERATOR REPLACEMENTS AT, UH, THE POLICE STATION AND THE FIRE STATION, UH, ONE, AND THEN THERE WERE SOME PARKS VEHICLES THAT WERE ORDERED AND, UH, NOT RECEIVED BY THE END OF THE FISCAL YEAR. 
          AND THEN WE HAVE POLICE VEHICLE UPFITTING, UH, OF $489,104. 
          UH, SO THE TOTAL THERE FOR THE CAPITAL EQUIPMENT REPLACEMENT FUND, UH, $1,391,009. 
          AND THEN WITHIN THE GRANT FUND. 
          AND WE HAD DONE A BUDGET AMENDMENT FOR THIS IN THE PRIOR FISCAL YEAR. 
          SO, UH, THE NORTH TEXAS EMERGENCY COMMUNICATION CENTER, UH, RECEIVED A GRANT, UH, THROUGH THEIR FOUR, UH, MEMBER CITIES. 
          UH, ADDISON'S PORTION WAS ABOUT $190,000. 
          [02:40:02]
UH, WE HAD DONE A BUDGET AMENDMENT FOR THIS LAST YEAR. 
          WE HAD NOT RECEIVED, UH, THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF THAT GRANT. 
          UH, SO WE HAVE ABOUT 48,687, UH, DOLLARS THAT WE, UH, WILL RECEIVE, UH, THIS YEAR. 
          AND THAT MONEY IS A PASS THROUGH GRANT. 
          SO THAT MONEY, UH, WHEN, WHEN RECEIVED, GOES BACK TO, UH, INTECH. 
          UH, SO THAT'S THE PROPOSED BUDGET AMENDMENT THERE FOR THE GRANTS FUND. 
          AND THEN WITHIN THE CAPITAL PROJECTS FUND, THESE ARE ALL PRIOR ENCUMBRANCES RELATED TO, UH, THESE PROJECTS. 
          SO THESE WERE ITEMS THAT WERE BUDGETED IN A PRE PREVIOUS FISCAL YEAR, AND, UH, THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF THOSE CONTRACTS WAS NOT EXPENDED IN THE FISCAL YEAR. 
          SO, UH, ROLLING OVER TO THIS FISCAL YEAR. 
          SO WE HAVE, UH, ABOUT $40,000 FOR RAW HIDE CREEK BASIN IMPROVEMENTS. 
          UH, THE PEDESTRIAN CONNECTIVITY, UH, THIS WAS A MATCHING PORTION, UH, FOR THE TOWN. 
          SO I THINK WE'VE HAD THAT IN THE BUDGET FOR ABOUT FOUR YEARS NOW. 
          AND WE FINALLY, UH, THEY FINALLY ASKED FOR THEIR MATCHING FUNDS OF $307,000. 
          SO, UH, WE SENT THAT OVER TO, UH, THE COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS, AND WE HAVE ABOUT, UH, 38,600 FOR LICENSE PLATE RECOGNITION SYSTEM. 
          AND THEN, UM, FROM OUR 20, UH, 18 CERTIFICATES OF OBLIGATION, WE HAVE, UH, VITRO VITRUVIAN WEST, UH, PROJECTS FOR STREETSCAPE AND BELLA LANE, AND THEN FOR VITRUVIAN PARK PHASE NINE, BLOCK 7 0 1 AT 292,000 AND ABOUT 519,000. 
          AND THEN WE HAVE MIDWAY ROAD, UM, FUNDS THERE THAT WERE ISSUED FOR THAT FOR ABOUT 582,000. 
          UH, SO THE TOTAL, UH, PROPOSED AMENDMENT THERE IN THE CAPITAL PROJECTS FUND, UH, $1,780,250. 
          AND THEN WHEN WE LOOK AT ALL THE TOTAL, SO THE GENERAL FUND'S, THE ONLY OPERATING FUND BEING AFFECTED BY THIS BUDGET AMENDMENT, UH, YOU CAN SEE THAT WE'RE INCREASING PROPOSING TO INCREASE EXPENDITURES, UH, $274,733, UH, OFFSET BY AN INCREASE IN SALES TAX REVENUE OF THE SAME AMOUNT. 
          SO, UH, NO EFFECT ON THE FUND BALANCE OF THE GENERAL FUND. 
          UH, THE OTHER FUNDS ARE ALL, UM, UH, NOT OPERATING FUNDS. 
          SO OUR PEG FUND WE'RE INCREASING, UH, EXPENDITURES BY 12,000. 
          SAME THING WITH THE SELF-FUNDED SPECIAL PROJECTS FUND, UH, OF 763,000. 
          UH, THE CAPITAL EQUIPMENT REPLACEMENT FUND, UH, ONE, UH, ALMOST 1.4 MILLION, UH, THE GRANTS FUND OF ABOUT 48,687. 
          AND THEN THE CAPITAL PROJECTS FUND OF JUST UNDER 1.8 MILLION. 
          AND MOST OF THOSE ARE RELATED TO PRIOR YEAR ENCUMBRANCES. 
          UH, SO THE TOTAL, UH, BUDGET AMENDMENT ON THE EXPENDITURE SIDE, $4,269,708 OFFSET BY THAT INCREASE IN SALES TAX, UM, OF 274,733. 
          WITH THAT, I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE BUDGET AMENDMENT QUESTIONS FOR STEVEN, NANCY, JUST ONE, JUST ONE QUICK WAYNE. 
          UM, NOT HAVING THAT MUCH FAMILIAR WITH THE TOWN BUDGET FROM YEAR TO YEAR, BUT IT'S THE NUMBER AND THE, AND THE MAGNITUDE OF THE PRIOR YEAR, UM, YOU KNOW, ADJUSTMENTS. 
          IS THAT USUAL OR NORMAL OR UNUSUAL OR WHAT? SO FOR THE SURF FUND, THE CAPITAL EQUIPMENT REPLACEMENT FUND, THIS ONE, WE, WE USED TO NOT REALLY EVER HAVE ANY PRIOR YEAR ENCUMBRANCES, BUT VEHICLES SINCE COVID HAVE BEEN SO DIFFICULT TO GET THAT WE'RE PLACING ORDERS AND WE'RE NOT GETTING THEM . 
          SO THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING THEME FOR THE LAST, I THINK, THREE OR FOUR YEARS THAT WE'VE, WE'VE NEVER REALLY HAD, YOU KNOW, OUTSTANDING VEHICLES THAT WE WEREN'T GETTING. 
          UM, SO THIS ONE'S A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT ON THE, AND THE OTHER ONES ARE, ARE FAIRLY, UM, COMMON. 
          UH, THE, THE CAPITAL PROJECTS FUND, WE'RE GENERALLY ALWAYS GONNA HAVE SOME CAPITAL PROJECTS THAT, UH, WE DON'T, YOU KNOW, WE'RE BUDGETING A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN ACTUALLY HAPPENS. 
          SO, UM, THAT'S UNDERSTANDABLE. 
          WE ROLL THAT OVER TO THE NEXT YEAR. 
          BUT REALLY THE ONE THAT'S A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT IS THE CAPITAL EQUIPMENT FUND BECAUSE OF THE, THE SUPPLY CHAIN SHORTAGES AND, AND SHORTAGES. 
          OKAY, THANK YOU. 
          YOU'RE WELCOME. 
          OTHER QUESTIONS? IS THERE A MOTION MOVE FOR APPROVAL? THANK ILENE. 
          SECOND FROM NANCY.

          THAT PASSES ITEM SIX A, SIX 
          [b.  Present, discuss, and consider action on an Ordinance approving a Developer Participation Agreement with Addison Hangars, LLC for the reconstruction of certain public improvements within Addison Airport to include a portion of the airport vehicle service road and aircraft apron along Taxiway Alpha; providing for the Town’s participation in the cost of the improvements in conformance with Chapter 212 of the Tex. Loc. Gov. Code (“Code”); authorizing the City Manager to execute the Agreement; and providing an effective date.]
B PRESENT, DISCUSS AND CONSIDER ACTION ON AN ORDINANCE APPROVING A DEVELOPER PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT WITH ADDISON HANGAR'S LLC FOR THE RECONSTRUCTION OF CERTAIN PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS WITHIN ADDISON AIRPORT TO INCLUDE A PORTION OF THE AIRPORT VEHICLE SERVICE ROAD AND AIRCRAFT APRON ALONG TAXIWAY ALPHA, PROVIDING FOR THE TOWN'S PARTICIPATION IN THE COST OF THE IMPROVEMENTS IN CONFORMANCE WITH CHAPTER TWO 12 OF THE TEXAS LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE AGREEMENT AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. 
          JOEL, UH, GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. 
          [02:45:01]
JOEL JENKINSON, AIRPORT DIRECTOR. 
          UH, THIS ITEM IS AN AGREEMENT WITH, UH, SKY HARBOR, WHICH IS DEVELOPING THE HANGERS, UH, JUST SOUTH OF TAXI LANE, VICTOR, UH, FRONTING TAXIWAY ALPHA. 
          AND IT'S AN AGREEMENT WITH BETWEEN THEM AND THE AIRPORT TO, UH, PUT FUNDS TOWARDS RECONSTRUCTION OF THE VEHICLE SERVICE ROAD BETWEEN THEIR, UH, LEASEHOLD AND TAXIWAY ALPHA. 
          SO THE AIRPORT IS PROPOSING TO ENTER INTO THIS DEVELOPER PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT TO RECONSTRUCT THE SEGMENT OF THE AIRPORT'S VEHICLE SERVICE ROAD BETWEEN TAXI LANE VICTOR TO THE NORTH AND TAXI LANE UNIFORM TO THE SOUTH. 
          THAT EXTENDS BEYOND, UH, THE AREA IN FRONT IMMEDIATELY IN FRONT OF THE LEASEHOLD FOR, UH, ADDISON HANGER'S, LLC, WHICH IS SKY HARBOR. 
          ADDISON HANGER'S LLC WILL CONTRIBUTE A THOUSAND SQUARE YARDS OF PAVEMENT TO THIS PROJECT AT THEIR COST. 
          AND THE AIRPORT'S ESTIMATED COST FOR THIS PROJECT IS 250,000 WITH A NOT TO EXCEED VALUE OF 110% OF THAT, OR $275,730. 
          UH, THIS IS THE PROJECT AREA, UH, NORTH IS TO THE RIGHT IN THIS IMAGE, UH, TAXI LANE VICTOR IS AT THE RIGHT HAND OF THE IMAGE. 
          AND THE ORANGE SHADED AREAS ARE THE AREAS OF THE VEHICLE SERVICE ROAD THAT WILL BE RECONSTRUCTED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT ENDING AT TAXI LANE UNIFORM IN THE SOUTH. 
          AND SKY HARBOR'S, UH, LEASE HOLD IS, UH, KIND OF ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE MIDDLE THERE WITH THOSE TWO ORANGE AREAS. 
          FRONTING THAT. 
          AND THESE ARE SOME IMAGES OF THE VEHICLE SERVICE ROAD AS IT CURRENTLY EXISTS. 
          UH, THERE ARE STEEL PLATES COVERING FAILED AREAS. 
          THERE IS ONE AREA THAT FAILED SO BADLY, WE HAD TO REMOVE THE CONCRETE AND CUT OUT THE REBAR THAT WAS STICKING UP. 
          UH, AND WHAT YOU SEE THERE IS ESSENTIALLY A CONSTRUCTION ENTRANCE WITH THREE TO FIVE INCH ROCKS ROLLED INTO WHAT SHOULD BE A ROAD. 
          UM, QUITE FRANKLY, IT'S FAILED TO ITS FULL DEPTH AND WE ABSOLUTELY NEED TO RECONSTRUCT THIS AS SOON AS WE CAN. 
          UH, IT'S A GREAT DEAL FOR THE AIRPORT AND THE TOWN, UH, GETTING A THOUSAND SQUARE YARDS OF CONCRETE, ESSENTIALLY FOR FREE. 
          AND WE WILL GO FROM A SINGLE LANE ROAD TO A TWO-LANE ROAD. 
          AND THAT IS THE END OF THE PRESENTATION THERE. 
          ANY QUESTIONS? QUESTIONS FOR JOEL? MAYOR, I'VE GOT A, I'VE GOT A COUPLE QUESTIONS, UM, ON THIS SLIDE THREE. 
          COULD WE GO, COULD WE PUT THAT BACK UP PLEASE? UM, DO, DOES JOEL, DOES THE ORANGE REPRESENT THE WIDTH OF THE NO, IT'S JUST HIGHLIGHTING THE AREA THAT'S THERE. 
          OKAY. 
          IT WON'T BE A TWO LANE ROAD THAT'S A SINGLE, UH, LANE IN EACH, IT'S, IT'S ONLY ONE LANE. 
          SO YOU HAVE OPPOSITE DIRECTION TRAFFIC. 
          AND WHAT THAT MEANS IS, UH, IF YOU'RE OUT THERE DRIVING ON IT AND YOU SEE SOMEBODY COMING, YOU HAVE TO KIND OF ANTICIPATE WHERE THEY'RE GOING TO GO OR YOU HAVE TO GET OUT OF THEIR WAY AND LET THEM PASS. 
          SO IT'S, IT'S, IT'S A SINGLE LANE WITH TWO WAY TRAFFIC. 
          OKAY. 
          AND SO ON THIS SLIDE, IF YOU, IF YOU CONTINUE TO THE LEFT, UM, OR IS THE PLAN TO WHEN WE NEED TO REPLACE THAT, UM, THAT'S THE VERY NEXT ITEM I HAVE FOR YOU, . 
          ALRIGHT, PERFECT. 
          I'LL WAIT FOR THAT. 
          THAT'S ITEM SIX C AND YES, WE NEED TO DO THAT AS WELL. 
          OKAY. 
          ALRIGHT. 
          SO THAT'S GONNA BE TWO LANES ALSO. 
          YES. 
          PERFECT. 
          THANK YOU KU JOEL, SO THIS IS JUST IN, UH, INCREASING WIDTH ON THE CENTER LINE? YES. 
          THANKS. 
          YEAH, REALLY THE, THE WESTERN EDGE OF THAT WILL BE UP AT THE MOVEMENT AREA BOUNDARY OR, OR PRETTY CLOSE TO IT. 
          I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT. 
          EILEEN AND JOEL, THE PLANES THAT WERE, WHENEVER THE AIRPORT WAS BUILT WERE OBVIOUSLY VERY DIFFERENT THAN WHAT WE HAVE NOW. 
          SO I'M ASSUMING THAT THIS IS GOING TO BE UPGRADED TO HANDLE NEW CAPACITY FROM WAYNE. 
          YES. 
          UH, AND REALLY THIS IS PART OF THAT, THE VEHICLE SERVICE ROAD WAS, UH, BUILT IN THE EARLY TWO THOUSANDS, I THINK AROUND 2001 OR 2002. 
          AND AT THAT TIME THE LARGEST VEHICLE WE HAD OUT THERE WAS A 3000 GALLON JET A TRUCK. 
          AND THEN ALL THE FBOS BOUGHT 5,000 GALLON JET A TRUCKS. 
          AND UH, THEY'RE A LOT HEAVIER. 
          AND UH, THE RESULTS YOU SEE IS THOSE STEEL PLATES IN THE BIG HOLES IN THE ROAD. 
          SO YEAH, WE GOT LESS THAN 20 YEARS OUT OF A ROAD THAT NORMALLY YOU WOULD EXPECT 40 YEARS OUT OF CONCRETE, BUT IT'S JUST THE AIRPORT HAS GROWN. 
          SO WE'RE PLANNING FOR THAT NEW CAPACITY IN PUTTING THIS IN. 
          WE'RE NOT GONNA FACE THE SAME SITUATION 20 MORE YEARS DOWN THE ROAD. 
          THAT'S CORRECT. 
          THANK YOU. 
          YEAH. 
          BUT TO BE CLEAR, THERE'S NO AIRCRAFT TRAFFIC ON THIS ROAD, IT'S JUST VEHICLES, RIGHT? THAT'S CORRECT. 
          EXCEPT FOR WHERE IT CROSSES THE INLETS TO THE RAMPS AND YOU SEE WE'RE NOT TOUCHING THOSE, THOSE HAVE ALREADY BEEN CONSTRUCTED TO HANDLE THOSE AIRCRAFT. 
          CORRECT. 
          GREAT. 
          OKAY THEN QUICK QUESTION JOEL. 
          SO OBVIOUSLY THE PICTURES SPEAK 
          [02:50:01]
A THOUSAND WORDS. 
          ARE THERE OTHER AREAS ON THE, I GUESS WEST SIDE OF THE AIRPORT THAT LOOK EVEN REMOTELY ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE AIRPORT OR THE EAST SIDE? THIS IS ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE AIRPORT, ON THE, ON ANY, I GUESS ANY OTHER PORTION OF THE AIRPORT THAT LOOKS WELL ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE AIRPORT, THERE'S NOT EVEN A ROAD. 
          AND THAT'S PART OF THE TAXI UUA BRAVO PROJECT TO CONSTRUCT A ROAD OVER THERE. 
          UM, ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE AIRPORT, UH, EVERYTHING SOUTH OF TAXI LANE, SIERRA HAS NOW BEEN RECONSTRUCTED AND IS NOW TWO LANES WIDE. 
          SO THAT'S, THAT'S BEEN ACCOMPLISHED OVER THE PAST FIVE OR SIX YEARS. 
          UH, THERE IS ONE SEGMENT THAT IS, UH, SOUTH OF TAXIWAY FOX TROT BETWEEN TAXIWAY, FOX, TROT AND SIERRA, THAT WE ANTICIPATE BRINGING FORWARD A DEVELOPER PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT LATER THIS YEAR WITH MILLIONAIRE, WHICH PURCHASED THE HANGAR TO THE SOUTH OF THE CUSTOMS FACILITY. 
          AND WE'LL BE REDEVELOPING THAT AREA, ACTUALLY BUILDING NEW, NEW RAMP AND PAVING THE GRASS AREA BETWEEN OUR RAMP AND THAT EXISTING HANGAR. 
          AND WE ANTICIPATE HAVING THAT SECTION OF THE ROAD RECONSTRUCTED UNDER A SIMILAR AGREEMENT AT THAT TIME. 
          PERFECT. 
          THANK YOU. 
          AND JOEL, WILL THAT TAKE IT FROM FOXTROT DOWN TO THE SOUTH END OF THE AIRPORT THEN, OR NO? YEAH, IT'S ALREADY FROM SIERRA SOUTH TO THE END. 
          OKAY. 
          SO FROM SIERRA NORTH IS WHERE THE PROBLEMS ARE RIGHT NOW. 
          THE ONLY POTENTIAL AREA THAT WE MIGHT HAVE AFTER ALL THIS IS DONE IS NORTH OF TAXI LANE VICTOR, WHICH JUST GOES UP TO MILLIONAIRES, UH, MAIN RAMP, THEIR TRANSIENT RAMP UP THERE. 
          AND THAT ROAD IS, IT'S OKAY FOR NOW. 
          UM, HOW MUCH LONGER? IT'S OKAY. 
          I'M NOT SURE. 
          TIME WILL TELL. 
          THANK YOU. 
          IS THERE A MOTION, I MOTION TO APPROVE ITEM SIX B FOR THE RECONSTRUCTION OF THE AIRPORT SERVICE ROOM. 
          DARREN? ALL SET. 
          AND A SECOND FROM DAN. 
          ANY DISCUSSION? ALL IN FAVOR? AYE. 
          AYE. 
          AYE. 
          AYE. 
          ANY OPPOSED? ALL RIGHT. 
          ITEM SIX B IS APPROVED SPEAKING OF 
          [c.  Present, discuss, and consider action on a Resolution approving a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) between the Town of Addison and Garver, LLC for engineering design, environmental, and bidding services for the airport east vehicle service road (VSR) reconstruction project in an amount not to exceed $133,000 and authorizing the City Manager to execute the agreement and provide an effective date.  ]
SIX C PRESENT AND DISCUSS AND CONSIDER ACTION ON A RESOLUTION APPROVING A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT PSA BETWEEN THE TOWN OF ADDISON AND, AND GARVER, LLC FOR ENGINEERING DESIGN, ENVIRONMENTAL AND BIDDING SERVICES FOR THE AIRPORT EAST VEHICLE SERVICE ROAD VSR RECONSTRUCTION PROJECT IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $133,000 AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE AGREEMENT AND PROVIDE AN EFFECTIVE DATE. 
          JOEL, AND GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. 
          JOEL JENKINSON, AIRPORT DIRECTOR. 
          AND THIS IS FOR A PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH GARVER. 
          THEY ARE OUR AIRPORT ENGINEER OF RECORD, UH, TO DESIGN THE AIRPORT VEHICLE SERVICE ROAD RECONSTRUCTION. 
          AND, AND THIS WOULD BE, UM, FROM TAXI LANE UNIFORM SOUTH TO TAXIWAY, FOXTROT. 
          UH, THE PROJECT WILL ALSO INCLUDE DESIGN FOR RECONSTRUCTION OF THE THREE CONNECTORS TO THE ATLANTIC AVIATION RAMP. 
          TWO OF THOSE ARE FROM TAXIWAY ALPHA TO THE RAMP. 
          THE THIRD IS ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THEIR PROPERTY, AND IT CONNECTS TO TAXI LANE TANGO. 
          ALL THREE OF THOSE HAVE FAILED. 
          UH, AND THAT'S KIND OF ADDITIONAL SCOPE THAT WE'VE ADDED INTO WHAT WAS ORIGINALLY PLANNED, UH, IN THE, UH, FY 24 CAPITAL BUDGET. 
          SO GARVER FEE FOR THIS PROJECT, $133,000. 
          AND IN THIS GRAPHIC ARE THE AREAS IN QUESTION. 
          SO THE ORANGE AREA IS THE VEHICLE SERVICE ROAD. 
          AND AGAIN, WE'RE GOING FROM A SINGLE LANE TO TWO LANES. 
          UH, THERE'S ONE LONG SEGMENT THAT FRONTS ATLANTIC AVIATION'S, UH, MAIN RAMP, AND THEN THERE'S A SMALLER SEGMENT THAT FRONTS THE CUSTOM RAMP RIGHT THERE. 
          AND THEN THE THREE YELLOW BOXES ARE THE CONNECTORS TO TAXIWAY ALPHA AND TAXI LANE TANGO. 
          UH, THAT WOULD ALL BE RECONSTRUCTED AND, AND AGAIN, THOSE WILL BE RECONSTRUCTED, UH, WIDENED AND EXPANDED AND THICKENED TO ACCOMMODATE THE HEAVIER AIRCRAFT THAT WE ARE NOW SEEING HERE IN ADDISON. 
          SO AGAIN, HERE ARE SOME PICTURES OF WHAT WE'RE DEALING WITH OUT THERE. 
          MORE STEEL PLATES. 
          UH, I THOUGHT ABOUT RECORDING AN AUDIO OF SOMETHING DRIVING OVER THOSE STEEL STEEL PLATES. 
          YOU HEAR IT VERY CLEARLY. 
          UH, AND AGAIN, THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE BADLY NEED TO ADDRESS. 
          UH, WE'VE EVEN HAD COMPLAINTS FROM THE FIRE DEPARTMENT ABOUT IT. 
          SO AGAIN, IT'S FAILED. 
          UH, WE JUST NEED TO REPLACE IT. 
          AND THIS IS JUST FOR THE ENGINEERING. 
          WE ANTICIPATE ONCE THIS IS DONE, BRINGING FORWARD, UM, UH, BID, BID AND CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT AWARD AT SOME POINT. 
          GOOD. 
          SO THERE'S MORE PICTURES OF THE FAILED AREAS. 
          UH, MORE STEEL PLATES, PONDING WATER, NONE OF THAT. 
          GOOD. 
          AND WITH THAT, I'LL ENTERTAIN QUESTIONS, QUESTIONS FOR JOEL ON THIS ONE, DARREN. 
          SO IT LOOKS LIKE, UM, SOME OF THE FAILURE IS ON THE ENTRY RAMP, ONE OF THE, AT LEAST ONE OF THE ENTRY RAMPS YOU HAVE ON RIGHT CORNER OF THAT SLIDE. 
          IS THAT RIGHT? YEAH, THOSE ARE ALL THE CONNECTORS. 
          THE LEFT HAND PHOTO THERE IS THE TAXI LANE TANGO ENTRY INTO THE ATLANTIC RAMP. 
          AND THE OTHER TWO 
          [02:55:01]
ARE THE TWO ENTRANCES, UH, THE TWO YELLOW BOXES, UH, THAT, UH, AND THOSE TWO TAKES AWAY ALPHA. 
          THOSE WERE ORIGINALLY CONSTRUCTED BY WHOEVER THE TENANT WAS AT THAT TIME, BUT THEY ARE NOT IN THE TENANT'S LEASEHOLD. 
          AND SO THEY WERE CONSTRUCTED BY A TENANT AND THEN TAKEN OVER BY THE AIRPORT. 
          SO THEY ARE NOW OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX. 
          AND THEY'RE FAILED WITH THE PLATES OVER THEM? OH, YES, THEY ARE. 
          LOVE TO DRIVE OVER ONE OF THOSE IN A $60 MILLION JET. 
          YEAH, . 
          AND, UH, THE NORTHERN ONE IS ACTUALLY GETTING WORSE. 
          YOU CAN SEE IN, IN THAT IMAGE THAT THERE'S ACTUALLY STEEL PLATES VISIBLE IN THE AERIAL PHOTO. 
          SO THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE DEFINITELY NEED TO ADDRESS AS SOON AS WE CAN. 
          THANK YOU. 
          JOEL . 
          THANK YOU MAYOR. 
          JOEL, I HAVE A QUESTION, GENERAL QUESTION ABOUT ASSET MANAGEMENT, SIR. 
          I KNOW THAT WE ADDED THE, I BELIEVE WE ADDED THE MODULE FOR THE AIRPORT, UM, LATER ON AFTER WE ALREADY, UH, STARTED THE ASSET MANAGEMENT, UH, PROGRAM. 
          CAN YOU SPEAK A LITTLE BIT TO HOW WELL IT TRACKED IT ONCE IT, IT WAS ON, AND I REALIZE IT'S IN FAILED CONDITION NOW, BUT, UH, WAS, UM, WERE WE, UH, WELL INFORMED ON THAT WITH, WITH THE USE OF THE, UH, MANAGEMENT? WELL, THIS, THIS ACTUALLY WAS STARTING TO FAIL EVEN BEFORE 2017 WHEN THE ASSET MANAGEMENT SURVEY WAS DONE WITH IRIS. 
          AND, UH, WE AREN'T FULLY UP TO SPEED ON, ON GETTING INTO IRIS YET WITH THESE, WE'RE WORKING WITH, UH, KINGSLEY AND NATALIE AND GETTING A LOT OF THE AIRPORT DATA UPDATED AND ENTERED. 
          SO WE CAN CAN USE THAT. 
          BUT, UH, WE'RE ONE OF THE LAST DEPARTMENTS, I THINK TO REALLY GET FULLY UP TO SPEED ON THE ASSET MANAGEMENT. 
          SO WE'RE A LITTLE AHEAD OF THAT ON, ON, ON THIS, THESE PARTICULAR PROJECTS. 
          BUT WE ANTICIPATE THAT WILL HAVE A LOT OF VALUE FOR US GOING FORWARD, AND PARTICULARLY MANAGING THE PAVEMENTS, WHICH AS YOU KNOW, IS ONE OF THE CHALLENGES OF RUNNING AN AIRPORT IS YOUR PAVEMENT MANAGEMENT IS SOMETHING THAT FAA REQUIRES YOU TO DO AND KEEP TRACK OF. 
          AND THAT WILL REALLY IMPROVE OUR ABILITY TO TRACK PAVEMENT CONDITION AND EXPECTED LIFETIMES. 
          THAT'S GOOD TO HEAR. 
          I, I, I KNOW THAT'S GONNA SAVE US SOME MONEY AND LOOKING FORWARD, SO THANK YOU. 
          THANK YOU, GQ. 
          IS THERE A MOTION MADE TO APPROVE? SECOND. 
          THANK YOU NANCY ALEEN FOR THE SECOND.
