[New Business]
MS. LEE ANN, THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR FOR OPERATIONS.LEANNE WILSON WILL PRESENT UPDATES.
ALL RIGHT, SO AT THE JOINT, UH, MDD AND COUNCIL MEETING LAST MONTH, THERE WAS SOME QUESTIONS AND DISCUSSION ABOUT THE FUTURE, UH, DOWNTOWN DEVELOPMENT PLAN.
AND, UH, CHRISTINA ASKED ME TO COME AND TALK TO YOU A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHAT WE HAVE GOING ON IN DOWNTOWN, AND THEN ALSO OUR PARKS, UH, WHAT WE HAVE GOING ON IN PARKS.
UM, WE USE OUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, UH, WHICH INCLUDES MULTIPLE OTHER MASTER PLANS, UH, WATER, SEWER, PARKS, UH, THOROUGHFARE.
UM, AND THEN WE JUST FOLLOW THOSE.
UM, SO WE HAD THE DOWNTOWN MASTER PLAN.
I THINK IT WAS APPROVED LIKE IN 2015.
UM, THERE WASN'T TOO MUCH OF THAT IMPLEMENTED UP UNTIL A COUPLE YEARS AGO.
UM, SO WE, WHAT I'VE BEEN TRYING TO DO SINCE I'VE STARTED HERE IS JUST FOLLOW THAT PLAN.
UM, AND I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'VE HAD A CHANCE TO READ THAT, BUT I'LL GO OVER A FEW OF THE, UH, GOALS AND VISIONS AND LET YOU KNOW WHAT WE'VE STARTED DOING, UH, TO TRY TO MEET THAT.
UH, SO THE FIRST ONE WAS PRESERVE THE HISTORIC BLOCK AND BETTER CONNECT WITH HISTORIC NEIGHBORHOODS.
SO RECENTLY WE PASSED AN ORDINANCE THAT CREATED A HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMITTEE, UH, SO THAT, UH, THAT COMMISSION COULD HEAR APPLICANTS THAT WANT TO DECLARE SOMETHING, A LANDMARK OR, UM, A HISTORIC, UH, NEIGHBORHOOD OR HISTORIC AREA.
UM, WE'VE STARTED PHASE ONE OF OUR MAIN STREET BEAUTIFICATION, UH, THAT KIND OF STARTED A COUPLE YEARS AGO WITH A GRANT THAT THE KEY HARVEY BEAUTIFUL, UH, GOT FROM TEXDOT AND WE'RE JUST NOW ABLE TO GET IT UNDER CONSTRUCTION AND MOVING.
UM, SO IT'S THE BLOCK THERE AT VETERANS.
I'M SURE YOU'VE GUYS SOME NOTICED, UM, IT'S ALMOST FINISHED.
UH, WE HAD A LITTLE BIT OF DELAY IN GETTING THE ELECTRICAL OUTLETS THAT WE NEED FOR THE FOOD TRUCKS.
UH, WE'RE LOOKING AT PEDESTALS THAT'LL HAVE THE TWO 50 AMP BREAKERS OR, OR PLUGS.
UH, AND THEN ALSO THE REGULAR ELECTRICAL PLUGS AS WELL.
[00:05:01]
I THINK WE FOUND THEM TODAY.SO HOPEFULLY THAT'LL MOVE FORWARD.
UM, BUT YOU'VE SEEN SOME OF THE SIDEWALK THAT'S BEEN PUT IN.
UH, WE HAVE THE LARGE DECORATIVE LIGHTS THAT'LL BE ON EACH CORNER, UM, BENCHES, UM, TRASH CANS, UM, ALL OF THAT GOOD STUFF.
UM, WE'LL GET, UM, A REIMBURSEMENT BACK FROM TXDOT, WHICH IS NOT REAL BIG, BUT WHEN WE GET THAT BACK, WE'LL USE THAT MONEY TO START THE DESIGN OF PHASE TWO, WHICH WOULD TAKE US FROM VETERANS PARK TO SHERMAN DRIVE.
UH, SO WE PLAN TO DO THE ENTIRE AREA.
UH, THE NEXT SECTION WILL BE A LITTLE BIT HARDER.
UM, THERE'S SOME DRAINAGE ISSUES THAT HAVE TO BE WORKED OUT.
I KNOW YOU'VE NOTICED ACROSS THE STREET AT THE, THE BUSINESSES, UH, THE ROAD SLOPES UP.
SO WE'VE, WE'VE GOT SOME ENGINEERING TO DO, BUT WE'VE GOT A PRETTY GOOD IDEA OF, OF WHAT WE CAN DO TO, TO MAKE THAT BETTER.
IT'LL INCLUDE THE CROSSWALKS, WHICH IS SOMETHING THAT WAS INCLUDED IN IN THE FUTURE PLAN.
I JUST HAVE A QUESTION ON THAT.
ARE THERE, IS THERE LIKE A, A STUDY ALREADY CONDUCTED OVER THERE ON THE SIDEWALKS WHERE THE, UH, BUSINESSES ARE IN THE DRAINAGE? THERE'S NOT, UM, WELL, LET ME BACK UP.
UM, THERE WAS, SO A COUPLE YEARS AGO, UM, IT'S KIND OF A LONG STORY, BUT A COUPLE YEARS AGO, THERE WAS SOME ENGINEERED PLANS.
UM, THERE WAS TWO DIFFERENT ENGINEERING FIRMS THAT WORKED ON IT.
AND, UM, WHEN IT GOT READY TO LET WITH TXDOT, UM, THEY DIDN'T MATCH UP.
UH, SO THE CONTRACTOR THAT GOT THE BID CAME OUT, LOOKED AT IT, SAID, I CAN'T BUILD THIS.
UM, THERE, THE, THERE WAS SOME WORK THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN DONE PRIOR TO HIM STARTING, AND IT WASN'T THERE.
UM, SO WE, WE REALLY WORKED ON IT FOR QUITE A WHILE WITH TXDOT.
UH, THE GRANT EXPIRED, BUT TXDOT AGREED TO CONTINUE IT FOR US BECAUSE THEY HAD SOME TURNOVER AS WELL THAT CAUSED SOME ISSUES.
IT REALLY WASN'T THE CITY'S FAULT, BUT IT DIDN'T HAPPEN.
UM, SO WE'RE STILL USING THAT SAME GRANT.
THAT WAS TWO GRANTS, ACTUALLY, THAT WERE APPROVED BACK IN 1920, IN, IN THAT NEIGHBORHOOD.
SO, SO THERE WAS SOME ENGINEERING.
UH, SO WE DO KNOW HOW DIFFICULT IT'S GONNA BE, UM, BUT IT'S DOABLE.
SO BACK UP AND CORRECT THAT, BUT WE HAVE NOT CONDUCTED THE ENGINEERING THAT NEEDS TO BE CONDUCTED TO BUILD IT.
THERE'S SOME OLD, OLD RECORDS.
UM, THE OTHER AREAS, UM, WERE CENTRAL PUBLIC GATHERING SPACE.
UM, SO WE'VE, WE'VE STARTED THAT WITH THE VETERANS PARK.
UM, IN ADDITION TO THAT MAIN STREET WITH THE PARKING AND THE SIDEWALKS, WE'RE IN A CONCEPT DESIGN PHASE RIGHT NOW FOR VETERANS.
IT'LL INCLUDE, UH, RESTROOMS, UH, PAVILION SHADE, UM, FOR THE, THE AUDIENCE THAT THEY'RE AT THE STAGE.
UM, SIDEWALKS, UH, LANDSCAPE IRRIGATION, UH, JUST REALLY BEAUTIFY, UH, THE PARK, UM, THAT'S IN DESIGN NOW.
SO WE'RE HOPING TO FUND THAT IN OUR NEXT BUDGET.
WE'LL BE TAKING IT TO COUNCIL, ASKING FOR FUNDING FOR THAT, UM, FOR THIS OCTOBER.
THE OTHER, UM, ELEMENT, OR THE VISION, OR UH, GOAL WAS PUBLIC PARKING.
IT'S BEEN A LITTLE MORE COMPLICATED.
UH, WE'RE IN DESIGN NOW TO MAKE A PARKING LOT BEHIND CITY HALL.
RIGHT NOW, IT'S GRASS BEHIND PD.
UH, WE'VE BEEN PARKING IN IT,
UM, AND THEN WE'RE GONNA DO SOME ADDITIONAL CURB AND GUTTER AROUND THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
SO WHEN WE DO PHASE TWO OF MAIN STREET, THAT CURB AND GUTTER WILL ALREADY BE IN PLACE, AND WE'LL JUST CARRY IT ALL THE WAY DOWN.
UH, I THINK BEFORE MIKE HAD HIS QUESTION, I WAS GONNA TALK ABOUT THE CROSSINGS.
SO ON MAIN STREET, WE'RE ALSO, UM, GONNA INCLUDE THOSE.
UM, THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE ELEVATION, BUT, UM, WE, WE CAN WORK THAT OUT.
WE'RE LOOKING AT TWO CROSSINGS, TWO PEDESTRIAN CROSSINGS, ONE PROBABLY, UM, THERE ON THE, UM, SOUTH SIDE OF THE MUSEUM, AND THEN POSSIBLY ONE AROUND CITY HALL, UM, TO GET ACROSS THE STREET.
AND WILL THOSE BE LIKE LIGHT PROTECTED OR SOMETHING? OR, OR JUST MOST LIKELY.
UM, WHAT WE'VE GOT IN OUR DESIGN SPECS, UM, WE HAVE A PUSH BUTTON.
IT JUST KIND OF DEPENDS ON WHERE, WHERE IT FALLS.
UM, SO RIGHT NOW IT IS A T ROADWAY.
UM, THEY'LL HAVE THE LAST SAY ON, ON THE DESIGN.
UM, EVENTUALLY WE DO HOPE TO TAKE THAT OFF SYSTEM AND IT'LL BECOME A CITY STREET.
BUT RIGHT NOW WE HAVE TO FOLLOW TXDOT GUIDELINES.
SO WE ARE, UM, AS THINGS GO FOR SALE, THERE'S A COUPLE HOUSES DOWNTOWN THAT, UH, ARE FOR RENT, AND WE, WE TRY TO INQUIRE.
SO WE'RE TRYING TO PICK UP AS MUCH LAND AS WE CAN DOWNTOWN, UH, SO THAT WE CAN ADD SOME PARKING.
THE OTHER GOAL WAS PRIORITIZE, UH,
[00:10:01]
PEDESTRIAN IMPROVEMENTS ON MAIN STREETS.I TOUCHED ON THAT A LITTLE BIT ON WHAT WE'VE GOT GOING IN PHASE TWO.
WE ALSO HAVE, UM, WE APPLIED TWO YEARS AGO FOR A SAFE ROUTES TO SCHOOL A GRANT, AND WE DIDN'T GET SELECTED.
UM, IT'S DUE, UH, IN A COUPLE WEEKS.
UM, WE'LL BE SUBMITTING THAT ONE OF EMAILS.
LAST TIME WE, WE ALL HAD TO SUBMIT EMAIL.
DO YOU NEED THAT AGAIN? I DON'T THINK SO.
UM, WE'RE USING ENGINEERING FIRM TO HELP US PUSH THROUGH, AND, AND HE HASN'T ASKED ME FOR THAT, SO STANDBY
UM, SO IT'S, UM, FROM THE MIDDLE SCHOOL ON SHERMAN ALL THE WAY UP TO BLACKJACK ON SHERMAN.
AND THEN WE WOULD GO FROM, UM, SHERMAN DOWN MAIN STREET, CROSS THE TRACKS TO CHESTNUT, GO DOWN, UH, CHESTNUT TO BROCKETT ELEMENTARY, AND THEN FINISH THE LITTLE PIECE UP TO 3 77.
SO IT'D BE SIDEWALK, UH, EIGHT FOOT, YEAH, EIGHT FOOT FOR STROLLERS AND PEDESTRIAN IS WHAT WE'VE SUBMITTED FOR.
WE ALSO SUBMITTED FOR ONE AT WINDRIDGE, UM, TO GET FROM WINDRIDGE BOULEVARD TO THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.
I THINK IT'S ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, UM, ALONG 1385.
SO WE'VE APPLIED FOR THAT ONE AS WELL.
HOPEFULLY, WE'LL, WE'LL GET THOSE.
UM, BUT ALSO WE WORK THOSE INTO OUR STREET PROGRAMS, OUR STREET BONDING.
SO EITHER WAY, EVENTUALLY WE'LL GET IT BUILT, BUT WE'RE HOPING, HOPING WE GET SELECTED THIS YEAR.
UM, GATEWAYS AND WAY FINDING SIGNAGE, UM, THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WAS IN THE, IN THE PLAN.
UM, YOU'VE SEEN THE SIGNAGE ON 3 77 THAT HAS THE ARROWS POINTING TO MDD MUSEUM.
UM, THOSE NEED TO BE REPLACED WITH SOMETHING A LITTLE MORE MODERN.
UH, THAT WAS SOMETHING THAT THEY HAD, UH, PUT IN HERE.
WE, I DON'T HAVE A PLAN FOR IT SPECIFICALLY YET.
UM, BUT HIGHWAY 3 77 IS GONNA BE WIDENING.
AND WE'RE WORKING ON AN AGREEMENT WITH TXDOT NOW FOR A LANDSCAPE AGREEMENT AND LIGHTING.
SO WHEN THEY WIDEN IT, UH, WE WANNA HAVE SOME LANDSCAPE IN THE MEDIAN AND THEN SOME LIGHTING.
UM, SO SIGNAGE WOULD BE, WE, WE WOULD INCLUDE THAT AS WELL.
UM, EXPLORE OPPORTUNITIES FOR REDEVELOPMENT OF THE HISTORIC PEANUT MILL BUILDINGS.
WELL, THE PEANUT MILL BUILDING HAS BEEN, UH, TORE DOWN, AND AS OF LAST FRIDAY, WE OWN THE PEANUT DRYER.
UH, WE PURCHASED THE CONGRATULATIONS.
WE PURCHASED, PURCHASED THAT FRIDAY.
UM, WE DON'T HAVE, UH, A PLAN FOR IT AT THIS TIME, UM, IF, I'M SURE YOU GUYS ARE AWARE, BUT THE PROPERTY THAT IT SITS ON BELONGS TO THE RAILROAD.
UM, WE HAVE LOTS OF IDEAS FOR IT IN THE FUTURE, BUT RIGHT NOW WE NEED TO, UM, SECURE IT.
THERE IS STILL SOME METAL THAT'S, UH, DANGLING FROM IT FROM THE PREVIOUS OWNERS.
WE'LL NEED TO TAKE THOSE DOWN AND THEN PUT A FENCE AROUND IT.
THERE'S SOME FOLKS THAT GO IN THERE AND TAKE PICTURES, AND IT'S JUST NOT SAFE.
UM, SO WE'LL, WE'LL NEED TO DO THAT.
THE RAILROAD WILL REQUIRE THAT.
UM, NOW THAT WE OWN IT, WE CAN WORK WITH THE RAILROAD ON A LEASE FOR THE PROPERTY.
I THINK WE HAVE A MEETING WITH THE RAILROAD THURSDAY, UH, TO TRY TO GET A BEAUTIFICATION LEASE, UM, PART OF THE PROPERTY WHERE VETERANS IS THEY OWN.
AND WE WEREN'T, WE'RE NOT ABLE TO MAKE THOSE IMPROVEMENTS WITHOUT THAT LEASE.
UH, SO HOPEFULLY WE'LL GET THAT IN PLACE AND WE'LL BE ABLE TO USE THE PROPERTY ONCE WE GET A LEASE.
IS, IS WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO.
WE WANTED TO PURCHASE, UM, AND AT ONE TIME THEY WERE GONNA SELL, BUT LAST, THEY'VE TOLD US THEY HAVE NEW MANAGEMENT IN PLACE, NEW RULES, AND THEY'RE NOT SELLING ANYTHING.
SO, BUT WE'LL STILL BE ABLE TO MAKE SOME IMPROVEMENTS.
UH, PARKING WOULD BE SOMETHING THAT'S, YOU KNOW, LOW HANGING.
THAT WOULDN'T BE TOO TERRIBLE IF THEY CAME IN AND SAID, HEY, Y'ALL GOTTA GET OUT.
UM, WE COULD, WE COULD HAVE SOME PARKING.
WE HAVE JUST AS MUCH GOING ON IN THAT DEPARTMENT,
SO IN 22, WE, UM, UPDATED, UM, OUR PARKS MASTER PLAN.
AND OUT OF THAT PLAN, UH, THERE WAS HUNDREDS OF ACRES THAT WE NEEDED TO PURCHASE FOR PARKS.
UH, THEY LOOKED AT OUR, OUR ULTIMATE BUILD OUT AND THEN DETERMINED, UM, WHAT OUR NEEDS WERE, UH, TO SERVE OUR COMMUNITY.
SO WE HAVE ADOPTED A PARK DEVELOPMENT FEE, UM, FOR ALL NEW HOMES, UM, BUSINESS OR HOMES AND MO AND MULTIFAMILY THAT COME IN.
WE HAVE A, A FEE THAT THEY PAY PER HOME OR PER LOT.
UH, WE CREATED A PARKS DEPARTMENT AND HIRED A PARK SUPERINTENDENT.
WE STARTED IMPROVEMENTS ON THREE OF OUR EXISTING PARKS.
[00:15:01]
SEEN MOST OF THOSE.UM, THE FIRST ONE HERE AT, AT LESLIE, WE'VE INSTALLED BASKETBALL COURTS AND PICKLEBALL.
UM, WE'VE HAD NUMEROUS, UH, VANDALISM ISSUES.
SO WE ARE, WE ARE TRYING TO WORK ON THAT.
THEY NEED TO TAKE CARE OF THEM.
WHERE, WHERE'S THAT VANDALISM HERE BEHIND THE LIBRARY? YEAH.
THEY ALREADY BEEN THE BASCO BALL GOAL OVER ONCE AND WE HAD TO, TO REPAIR IT AND PUT IT BACK UP.
AND THEY KEEP BREAKING THE HANDLE OFF OF IT, WHERE IT LOWERS IT DOWN, RAISES IT UP, RIDING MOTORCYCLES ON IT, AND BURNING OUT AND TEARING UP THE SURFACE.
UM, THE OTHER, UM, IMPROVEMENTS ARE AT MATTHEW'S.
I DON'T KNOW IF Y'ALL BEEN BY THERE.
UH, THEY'VE GOT ALL THE PLAYGROUND EQUIPMENT PUT IN.
I THINK IT'S GONNA BE REALLY NICE.
UH, WE STILL HAVE SOME WORK TO DO BEFORE IT OPENS BACK UP, BUT I JUST TOLD KURT BEFORE I CAME HERE, WE NEED TO HAVE A GRAND OPENING PARTY.
UM, WE ARE BUILDING A NEW PARK, A LITTLE POCKET PARK OVER HERE ON HIGH MEADOW.
UH, WE HAD SOME PROPERTY THERE THAT WAS, UM, DIDN'T LOOK TOO GOOD IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
UH, SO WE'VE, UH, DESIGNED A POCKET PARK THAT'LL START CONSTRUCTION ANYTIME THEY SHOULD BE MOBILIZING OVER THERE.
NOW IT'S THE SAME COMPANY THAT DID LESLIE HERE.
WE'VE OBTAINED A APPROXIMATELY 20 ACRE, UH, TRACK THAT'S GOING TO BE A, UM, NATURE CONCEPT TYPE PARK, UM, ON SPRING HILL AND MCMA.
WE'RE PLANNING A COMMUNITY MARKET, UM, I KNOW YOU GUYS ARE FAMILIAR WITH THAT.
YOU'RE PAYING FOR THE CONCEPT PLAN.
UM, ONCE WE HAVE THAT FINALIZED, THEN WE WILL, UH, GET OUR CIVIL ENGINEERING GOING AND START CONSTRUCTION AND, AND TRY TO GET FUNDING, UH, AGAIN IN OCTOBER.
I'D LIKE TO TRY TO GET FUNDING FOR THAT AS WELL.
THAT WOULD BE AT THAT WILSON FIELD.
UM, WE HAVE TWO COMMUNITY PARKS GOING IN AT TWO DIFFERENT DEVELOPMENTS.
UM, HIGH POINT IS THERE AT, UH, 4 28 AND 3 77.
AND THEN DUCK POINT WILL BE AT 1385 AND 4 28.
THERE'LL BE A COMMUNITY PARK THERE.
UM, ONE OF THE OTHER GOALS WAS, UM, TO DEVELOP A HIKING, BIKING TRAIL, UH, TO CONNECT FROM 1385 TO THE GREENBELT.
AND SO WE'VE STARTED THAT WITH OUR GIS SYSTEM WHERE I AT.
IT'S CRAZY, BUT YOU KNOW WHAT, IT'S STARTING TO PIECE TOGETHER.
SO, UM, WE'RE, WE'RE MAP MAPPING IT NOW FOR THE DEVELOPMENTS THAT WE'VE ALREADY, UM, HAVE IT BUILT AND THEN THE DEVELOPMENTS THAT HAVE RESERVED SPACE FOR IT.
AND THEN THE PROPERTY THAT WE NEED TO OBTAIN TO MAKE THE CONNECTION.
SO IT JUST SAYS DEVELOPMENTS COME IN.
WE JUST TRY TO TRY TO MAKE IT OUR WAY ACROSS TOWN.
WHAT KIND OF, HOW DISTANCE WISE, WHAT WOULD BE THE MILEAGE ESTIMATE BETWEEN THERE? AND I WOULD SAY MAYBE 12 MONTHS.
WELL, JUST ENOUGH FOR A HALF MARATHON
YOU WON'T SEE ME THERE
WHERE, WHERE WOULD IT TERMINATE ON 1385 BECAUSE I LIVE OVER IN SANDROCK, SO RELATIVE TO THAT.
SO, UM, WE, WE DON'T HAVE THAT PART, UH, TOGETHER YET, BUT WE ARE WORKING ON SOME DEVELOPMENTS THERE BY DUCK POINT.
SO I WOULD THINK SOMEWHERE CLOSE TO SANDROCK.
UM, AND MAYBE WE WOULD BE ABLE TO USE THE WINDRIDGE AND THE SANDROCK DEVELOPMENT MM-HMM
UH, TO TRY TO GET IT ALL THE WAY THROUGH AND THEN COME ON ALL THE WAY ACROSS.
YEAH, CONNECTING TO WINDRIDGE IS, IS PRIORITY 'CAUSE IT'S IN THE CITY LIMITS, SO WE WOULD DEFINITELY WIND IT THROUGH THERE SOMEHOW.
AND IF YOU GET AROUND THE SANDERS LOT BACK THERE.
UM, WE ARE OBTAINING AS MUCH FLOODPLAIN AS POSSIBLE AND THAT WAS PART OF THE GOAL WAS IF WE, WE GET THAT FLOODPLAIN FROM ALL THESE DEVELOPERS, THEN IT KIND OF HELPS, UH, GET THAT TRAIL PUT IN PLACE.
SO, AND THAT WAS ALL I HAD ON THOSE TWO.
UM, LIKE THOSE, WE HAVE MASTER PLANS FOR WATER, SEWER, ROADWAY.
UM, IF THERE'S ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE ON ANY OF THAT, I CAN, I CAN COVER SOME OF THAT AS WELL IF YOU'D LIKE.
WE HAVE MULTIPLE DEVELOPMENTS IN, IN HOUSE.
UM, IT'S NOT PAPERED UP YET, WE'RE STILL IN NEGOTIATIONS, SO CAN'T REALLY GO OVER WHAT THOSE ARE.
BUT WE'RE LOOKING AT, UM, RIGHT NOW, FOUR SINGLE FAMILY, UH, WITH COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENTS.
UH, TWO POTENTIAL MULTIFAMILY WITH COMMERCIAL, UM, TWO RESIDENTIAL AND THEN ONE COMMERCIAL.
[00:20:01]
SO WE'VE GOT NINE.AND YOU KNOW, THESE, SOME OF THESE MAY TAKE A COUPLE YEARS TO FINALLY PAPER UP, BUT IT'S NOT SLOWING DOWN.
UM, SO THAT'D BE DENTON COUNTY AND, UH, TDOT, THEY DO HAVE A WEBSITE.
I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'RE FAMILIAR, UH, WHERE YOU CAN GO AND GATHER THAT DATA.
I'VE GOT IT BOOKMARKED IN TEXT, EMAIL, MAIL.
I JUST HAD JUST ONE THING I WANTED TO REMIND Y'ALL OF Y'ALL IN OUR WORK SESSION.
UH, THERE WERE QUESTIONS ABOUT SOME OF THE DOWNTOWN GOALS.
I KNOW LEANNE MENTIONED A DRAINAGE STUDY NEEDING TO BE DONE.
AND SO DIDN'T KNOW IF THAT WAS, UM, YOU MAY HAVE SAID IT WHILE I WAS WRITING NOTES.
WAS, IS THERE A PLAN FOR THE DRAINAGE STUDY, A TIMELINE, OR IS THAT A FUNDING, UH, ANOTHER PLAN THAT NEEDS FUNDING OR? SO THE DRAINAGE WOULD BE PART OF THE CIVIL ENGINEERING.
SO IT WOULD GO WITH THE, WITH THE STREET, UM, AND EVERYTHING.
SO HOPING TO GET THE, UM, GRANT MATCH REFUND BACK, AND THEN USE THAT MONEY, UH, TO GO FORWARD WITH THE CIVIL SOUNDS LIKE IT WOULD BE LIKE A TWO YEAR, TWO OR THREE YEAR PLAN TO BEFORE ANYTHING REALLY YES.
TYPICALLY PROJECTS LIKE THAT, YOU'RE, YOU'RE LOOKING A YEAR FOR DESIGN, A YEAR FOR CONSTRUCTION.
UM, THAT ONE PROBABLY WOULDN'T BE QUITE A YEAR.
UH, WE'D MAYBE EIGHT MONTHS OR SO IN DESIGN.
UM, AND THEN START CONSTRUCTION IF IT'S NOT A GRANT.
IF IT'S A GRANT, YOU GOTTA TACK ON ANOTHER 10, 12 MONTHS OR MORE.
I JUST HAD WATER AND SEWER AND STREETS IN CASE Y'ALL WANTED MORE, BUT HAVE, HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OVER THAT? WHY ARE YOU LOOKING AT ME
EVERYBODY'S CONSENT TO THEIR GLOBAL HEARTS DESIRE.
CONSIDER AND TAKE ACTION ON PROFESSIONAL SERVICE AGREEMENT WITH CATALYST COMMERCIAL FOR SERVICES AS NEEDED FOR ECONOMIC ANALYSIS AND DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS.
IS IT OKAY IF I SIT HERE OR YOU WANT ME TO STAND
UM, SO AS YOU ALL KNOW, WE'VE BEEN WORKING WITH CATALYST COMMERCIAL ON OUR STRATEGIC PLAN, AND THEY COMPLETED THAT PLAN.
BUT AS YOU CAN ALSO SEE FROM THE GOALS THAT WE HAVE, THERE ARE SOME PROJECTS THAT ARE GOING TO BE FAIRLY LARGE AND THAT WE'LL NEED SOME, UM, WE'LL NEED SOME CONSULTING ASSISTANCE TO CONTINUE ON WITH SOME OF THOSE RF QS RFPS.
SO IT'S DEFINITELY SOMETHING WHERE WE MAY NEED AN ON-CALL AGREEMENT FOR SOME PROFESSIONAL SERVICES.
AND I BELIEVE THAT WOULD BE, UM, FOR SOME OF THOSE PROJECTS WE TALKED ABOUT IN THAT WORK SESSION THAT YOU ALL THOUGHT WERE GOOD IDEAS.
UM, SOME OF THOSE BEING BUILDINGS ON OUR LOT OR OUR OTHER PROPERTIES THAT WE OWN, IF WE'RE GONNA BUILD ANYTHING OR IF WE'RE GONNA BE TARGETING AN INDUSTRY.
SO THEY WOULD HELP IN THOSE ON-CALL SERVICES AS NEEDED, UH, FOR SOME OF THOSE ANALYSIS OR FOR SOME OF THOSE THIRD, THIRD PARTY SERVICES THAT MIGHT NEED, UM, SOME MANAGEMENT ON SPECIFICS.
SO THE CONTRACT WAS SENT TO YOU IN YOUR, IN YOUR BACKUP FILES, THE CONTRACT PROPOSAL.
AND SO HOPEFULLY YOU HAD A CHANCE TO LOOK AT THAT.
AND THEN ALSO THIS WOULD BE, IF YOU CHOOSE TO APPROVE IT, IT WOULD BE EFFECTIVE FROM 12 MONTHS FROM THE DATE OF SIGNING.
[00:25:01]
AGAIN, ONLY CHARGED AS AS WE USE IT UP TO A CERTAIN CAP, WHICH RIGHT NOW IS RECOMMENDED $25,000.BUT AGAIN, THOSE UM, CAN BE, THAT CAN BE CHANGED BASED ON WHAT YOU ALL AGREE IS A GOOD FIT.
ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? IF WE GOT TO THE 25,000, DID THEY GIVE YOU KIND OF A OVERVIEW OF HOW MANY HOURS THAT WOULD BE? I, I SEE THAT THEY LIST HOURS BY PRINCIPAL MM-HMM
BUT DO THEY KIND OF GIVE US A GENERAL SCOPE OF HOW MUCH WE COULD RELY ON THEM FOR THAT MONEY? I MEAN, NO, BUT THEY DID NOT GIVE AN ESTIMATE ON THAT, BUT I THINK THAT WOULD BE, DEPENDING ON HOW LONG IT WOULD TAKE, HOW MANY, WHAT THE PROJECT WAS THAT THEY WERE WORKING ON AND HOW BIG THAT RFP WAS.
IF, YOU KNOW, IF IT'S A LARGER PROJECT, IT'S PROBABLY GONNA REQUIRE MORE HOURS FROM THEIR FIRM.
UM, IF IT'S A SMALLER ONE, OBVIOUSLY IT'S GONNA BE SMALLER.
BUT I THINK IF AS LONG AS THERE WAS A WAY TO TRACK THAT 25,000 MM-HMM
UM, WHAT WE WERE INTO IT AT ANY GIVEN TIME AND WE COULD KNOW WHERE WE WERE AT.
IF WE WERE ABLE TO DO THAT WITH THE STRATEGIC PLAN AS WELL.
WHEN WE WERE RECEIVED INVOICES, WE WERE ABLE TO SEE THE BALANCE OF WHAT HAD BEEN FINISHED AND WHAT WAS STILL LEFT.
SO DID THEY DO THAT MONTHLY OR DID THEY DO THAT BY PROJECT? THEY DID THAT BY PROJECT, UM, AS THEY WOULD COMPLETE, YOU KNOW, A MONTH OR TWO OF SOME OF THE WORK ON SPECIFIC PARTS OF THE STRATEGIC PLAN.
WE GOT ABOUT THREE OR FOUR INVOICES OVER THAT TIME PERIOD.
SO I CAN ALSO CHECK WITH THEM PRIOR TO ENGAGING IN ANY OF THOSE ON-CALL SERVICES TO JUST MAKE SURE THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT WOULD TAKE US OVER AND WE CAN ALWAYS EVALUATE THAT AS WE GO.
I THINK ON A LARGER PROJECT I'D WANT TO SEE IT ON A MONTHLY BASIS WHERE THEY WERE AT, ESPECIALLY IF THEIR DELIVERABLES WEREN'T DUE FOR THREE MONTHS.
I WOULDN'T WANT THREE MONTHS TO GO BY AND REALIZE THAT WE'VE TACKED ON A $50,000 BILL
BUT IF IT WAS, YOU KNOW, ALL ON THE SAME PROJECT, BUT IF IT WAS ONE PROJECT, I'D LIKE TO AT LEAST GET MONTHLY INSTALLMENTS OF KIND OF KNOWING WHERE WE WERE AT.
AND I THINK, I THINK GOING INTO A PROJECT OR GOING INTO A DISCUSSION WITH THEM, WE KIND OF NEED TO KNOW AN OUT, AN OUTLINE OF WHAT WE'RE DOING AND THEN ALSO HAVE THEM KIND OF ESTIMATE, RIGHT? LIKE HOW LONG IT'LL TAKE OR CAN THEY DO THAT? YES.
I THINK THAT, YEAH, I THINK THEY CAN DO THAT.
THEY COULD TELL ME BEFORE WE WOULD ENGAGE IN ANY KIND OF SERVICE, I'D LET THEM KNOW WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR, THEN THEY COULD GIVE ME AN ESTIMATE ON HOW MANY HOURS AND, AND THAT'S GONNA TAKE OF THIS 25,000 ALLOWANCE THAT YOU ALL WOULD, UM, AGREE TO OR NOT.
'CAUSE IF IT WAS JUST THE PRINCIPALS DOING THIS, IT'S ONLY 50 HOURS WORTH OF WORK, WHICH MM-HMM
DOESN'T SOUND LIKE A LOT, UNLESS YOU'RE REALLY, REALLY, MAYBE THEY'RE REALLY, REALLY GOOD
BUT I MEAN, WE COULD USE THAT UP PRETTY QUICK IF IT WAS JUST THOSE GUYS.
IS THE, IS IT FOR LIKE EVERY PHONE CALL AND EMAIL YOU SEND, LIKE LEGAL COUNSEL AND THINGS LIKE THAT? YES.
MOST LIKELY THAT'S GOING TO BE INCLUDED IN SOME OF THOSE CHARGES BECAUSE I CAN SPEND SOMETIMES IF I'VE, DURING THE PROCESS FOR THE STRATEGIC PLAN AND SO FORTH, WE WERE SPENDING, YOU KNOW, DOING CONFERENCE CALL FOR 30 MINUTES OR AN HOUR AT TIMES.
SO ARE THERE ANY PROJECTS WE HAVE CURRENTLY OR ON THE HORIZON, THE NEXT 30 DAYS, 60 DAYS? IS THERE A UM, THERE ARE SOME, UH, THERE'S SOME ANALYSIS I WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE WORK WORKING ON WITH THEM FOR OUR TRADE AREA AND FOR OUR RETAIL AND SOME OTHER TARGET INDUSTRIES THAT, UH, WOULD LIKE TO PINPOINT A LITTLE MORE AND GET THEIR FEEDBACK ON AND WORK WITH THEM ON SOME OF THE, UM, STRATEGIES FOR THAT.
SO ALSO IF WE DECIDE TO DO ANYTHING TO START A CONCEPT PLAN FOR OUR PROPERTY, UM, THE CONCEPT PLANS THEMSELVES, MUCH LIKE WHAT WE'VE DONE WITH WESTWOOD WOULD BE OUTSIDE OF THEIR SERVICES, OBVIOUSLY, 'CAUSE THEY'RE NOT AN ARCHITECTURAL FIRM, BUT CONCEPT PLANS FOR OUR PROPERTY OR ANY OTHER PROPERTIES.
UM, IF, IF WE WANTED TO LOOK AT SOMETHING, WE WOULD GET THAT GOING, WHICH SEEMS LIKE THAT WAS KIND OF AN EXCITING POINT AFTER OUR WORK SESSION LAST MONTH.
AND AGAIN, NOT CHARGED UNLESS WE USE IT HISTORICALLY BASED ON JUST PRINCIPALS, UM, SENIOR FIRMS AND ASSOCIATES.
WHO DO WE PREDOMINANTLY WORK WITH JUST IN THE PAST SO WE CAN GET AN IDEA IF THAT 25 THOUSANDS.
WE HAVEN'T REALLY WORKED WITH ANYONE LIKE THIS FIRM.
SO THIS IS CATALYST, RIGHT? YES.
[00:30:01]
STRATEGIC PLAN CONSULTANT.SO HE'S ASKING, SO WHEN WE TALKED WITH JASON, HE WOULD BE A PRINCIPAL, RIGHT? JASON? OH, YES.
YOU MEAN YOU'RE LOOKING AT THE PROPOSAL? OKAY.
AND THEN, SORRY, CHRIS WOULD BE THE YES.
ASSOCIATE, YOU'RE CORRECT, RIGHT? YES.
THE YES OR WOULD HE BE SUPPORT STAFF? WHAT, WHAT WOULD WHAT CHRIS, CHRIS WOULD BE THE ASSOCIATE SUPPORT STAFF IS, UH, LIKE FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN WE WORKED ON THE FLYER THAT I DID FOR, UM, THE SHOW, THAT WOULD BE CONSIDERED SUPPORT STAFF.
SOME OF THAT WORK AT THAT LEVEL, SOME WOULD BE DEPENDING ON WHAT THE ANALYSIS WAS, BUT, OKAY.
CHRIS IS THE ONE THAT CAME AND TALKED TO US.
AND THEN JASON, WELL THE LAST TIME, IF YOU, OKAY, GOOD QUESTION.
DO YOU HAVE A MOTION TO DO I, IS THERE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT AS PRESENTED OR WITH ANY CHANGES? I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE IT.
ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, TODD? OH MY GOSH.
ALL THOSE IN FAVOR? ALL RIGHT.
UM, AND THEN PASSES FIVE TO ONE.
[Staff Report]
ALRIGHT, SO THE STAFF REPORT IS RIGHT THERE ON THE SCREEN.AND THE MAIN THING I WANNA POINT OUT TO YOU ON THE MONTHLY STAFF REPORT IS OUR NEW SITE SELECTION, UH, PAGE, HOPEFULLY, DID EVERYBODY HAVE A CHANCE TO GO LOOK AT THAT? THE SITE SELECTION PAGE? OKAY.
SO THAT WAS OUR BIG ACCOMPLISHMENT FOR, UH, SOME OF THE BIGGER PROJECTS WE HAD BUDGETED FOR, UM, THAT WE GOT FINISHED.
AND IT'S, I'M STILL WORKING ON A FEW, UH, TWEAKS FOR IT, BUT, UM, IT'S BEEN VERY HELPFUL TO HAVE THAT.
WE USED IT AT THE SHOW AT ICSC AND IT WAS VERY GOOD FOR, UM, SHOWING SOME AVAILABLE PROPERTIES THAT ARE ON, ON THE MARKET RIGHT NOW IN AUBREY WITH DIFFERENT BROKERS.
AND WE HAD A REALLY GOOD SHOW.
UM, WHEN I SAY WE HAD ABOUT 25, UH, ENGAGEMENTS, THAT WAS CONVERSATIONS THAT WERE, YOU KNOW, THAT WASN'T JUST PEOPLE STOPPING BY.
THERE WERE CONVERSATIONS ABOUT AUBREY'S DEVELOPMENT, WHAT'S COMING, WHAT WE CAN EXPECT, UM, AND WHAT THEY'RE LOOKING FOR.
SO IT WAS, IT WAS VERY INSIGHTFUL SHOW FOR US TO SEE WHAT'S COMING, UM, DOWN THE ROAD AND WHAT WHAT AUBREY'S FUTURE, UM, COULD HOLD AS FAR AS WHO'S LOOKING AT AUBREY FOR FUTURE DEVELOPMENT IN LAND.
AND THEN OUR SOCIAL MEDIA REPORT, IF YOU COULD PULL UP THAT ONE THAT JUST AGAIN, SHOWS YOU ALL THE DIFFERENT POSTS.
AND I, I LIKE TO SHOW THAT TO YOU BECAUSE IF YOU LOOK DOWN AT THE BOTTOM PAGE, UH, FOR THE WEBSITE TRAFFIC, UH, YOU'LL SEE THE TREND KIND OF FLOW AND GO UP AS I POST SOMETHING WITH, WITH OUR WEBSITE ON SOCIAL MEDIA, YOU'LL SEE THAT OUR HITS GET INCREASE ON THAT PAGE OR INCREASE ON THE SITE.
SO, UH, TRYING TO THINK OF MORE CREATIVE WAYS AND POSTS TO MAKE WHERE IT ENGAGES THE, THE VIEWER TO GO TO OUR WEBSITE AND LOOK AT IT.
SO ONCE I GET A FEW OF THESE TWEAKS WORKED OUT ON THE SITE SELECTION MAP, THAT'LL BE ANOTHER POST I MAKE TO TRY AND DRIVE PEOPLE TO THAT SITE TO TAKE A LOOK AT IT.
AND HOPEFULLY IT WILL GET MORE PEOPLE PROMPTED TO LET ME KNOW ABOUT THEIR LISTINGS.
THEY'VE GOT SOME DETAILS ON IT.
UM, 'CAUSE RIGHT NOW IT'S SOMETIMES WHAT I CAN FIND ONLINE THAT THEY'VE LISTED OR WHAT THEY'VE PROVIDED TO ME.
SO, UM, ALSO TRIED TO PUSH SOME LOCAL, UM, AWARENESS AND OF LOCAL SHOPPING AND BUSINESSES THAT ARE HERE IN OPRY THROUGH SOME POSTS.
AND YOU CAN SEE SOME OF THOSE WENT UP AFTER WE HAD THAT FREEZE AND WE WERE ENCOURAGING PEOPLE TO SHOP.
IF YOU'RE GONNA SHOP ONLINE, LOOK ONLINE LOCALLY 'CAUSE THEY JUST MIGHT HAVE SOMETHING YOU NEED.
SO, UM, HOPEFULLY A LOT OF THAT AWARENESS IS JUST HELPING PEOPLE IN AUBREY KNOW MORE ABOUT WHAT'S HERE AND WHAT WE OFFER.
AND NOW WE'RE UP TO 1,100 FOLLOWERS, WHICH IS GOOD.
SO, UM, IS THERE ANY QUESTIONS ON THAT? UH, AS FAR AS THE VIDEO, I DO HAVE FINAL EDITS.
UH, THE GRAPH, THE GRAPHIC UPGRADES THAT
[00:35:01]
WE JUST SIGNED, THAT AMENDED CONTRACT FOR THOSE WE, WE HAVE ASKED, UM, FOR SOME EDITS TO BE MADE.THEY'RE GOING TO BE GETTING THAT TO ME AT THE END OF FEBRUARY, UM, FIRST WEEK OF MARCH.
WHAT BROKER AND DEVELOPER TOUR WOULD LIKE TO DO? KIND OF A BUS TOUR THAT HAS A LUNCH INVOLVED, UH, OR MAYBE SOME KIND OF RECEPTION AND HAVE A PRESENTATION FROM OUR CITY MANAGER AND GIVING, UH, THE TOUR ON THE BUS AND THAT I'M LOOKING AT LATER MARCH, APRIL.
