I'M EXCITED TO INTRODUCE SERGIO HERNANDEZ AS OUR NEW MUNICIPAL COURT BAILIFF.
SERGIO RETIRED FROM THE NEW YORK CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT AFTER 20 YEARS OF DISTINGUISHED SERVICE, CONCLUDING HIS CAREER AS A DETECTIVE DURING HIS TENURE.
HE SERVED ON DUTY DURING SEPTEMBER 11TH, 2001, TERRORIST ATTACKS AND RECEIVED NUMEROUS COMMENDATIONS AND RECOGNITION FOR HIS DEDICATION AND EXEMPLARY SERVICE.
IN MY CONVERSATIONS WITH HIM, UM, I'M VERY EXCITED HE'S JOINED OUR RANKS.
AFTER RETIRING FROM NYPD, SERGIO RELOCATED TO TEXAS WITH HIS FAMILY TO PURSUE, PURSUE NEW OPPORTUNITIES, AND PROVIDE A BRIGHT FUTURE FOR HIS CHILDREN.

UM, RECEIVE A PRESENTATION ON HOLD OF DISCUSSION REGARDING SUBMISSIONS RECEIVED IN RESPONSE TO RFQ NUMBER 2026 DASH ZERO FOUR.
REQUEST FROM CON FOR CONSTRUCTION MANAGER AT RISK SERVICES FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE AUBRY SPORTS COMPLEX.
CAN YOU HEAR ME? GOOD EVENING, MAYOR COUNSEL, TRICIA WOOL FROM WESTWOOD.
THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME THIS EVENING TO PRESENT TO YOU THE RECOMMENDATION FOR CONSTRUCTION MANAGER AT RISK FOR THE AUBREY SPORTS COMPLEX.
IT'S BEEN A PLEASURE WORKING ALONGSIDE CITY STAFF THROUGHOUT THIS PROCESS.
AND BEFORE I WALK THROUGH THE EVALUATION, I'D LIKE TO REMIND COUNSEL THAT THIS IS A TWO STEP CMAR PROCUREMENT.
TONIGHT'S RECOMMENDATION IS BASED SOLELY ON QUALIFICATIONS, EXPERIENCE, AND THE EVALUATION CRITERIA ESTABLISHED IN THE RFP.
ONCE THE CMAR IS SELECTED, WE'LL MOVE INTO THE PRE-CONSTRUCTION PHASE WHERE THE TEAM WILL WORK COLLABORATIVELY WITH THE CITY AND THE DESIGN TEAM TO REFINE COSTS, SCHEDULE, AND ULTIMATELY NEGOTIATE THE GMP.
THAT WILL ALSO BE PRESENTED TO COUNCIL BEFORE ANY CONSTRUCTION BEGINS.
SO, FROM THE BEGINNING, THERE'S BEEN A REAL EXCITEMENT SURROUNDING THIS, THIS PROJECT, WHICH WAS EVIDENT BY THE EXTRAORDINARY RESPONSE, WHERE WE RECEIVED 21 SEALED STATEMENT OF QUALIFICATIONS.
THEY TOO KNEW THIS SPORTS COMPLEX WOULD BE OF AUBREY'S SIGNATURE PROJECT.
SO WE TOOK, UM, WE TOOK THE TIME TO IDENTIFY NOT JUST THE MOST QUALIFIED CONTRACTOR, BUT THE RIGHT PARTNER TO HELP BRING THE CITY'S VISION TO LIFE.
WE DEVELOPED A COMPREHENSIVE EVALUATION PROCESS BASED ON THE CRITERIA ESTABLISHED IN THE RFP, WHICH FOCUSED ON FOUR PRIMARY AREAS, FIRM QUALIFICATIONS AND FINANCIAL STABILITY, SM R EXPERIENCE, NORTH TEXAS AND SPORTS COMPLEX EXPERIENCE, AND CLIENT REFERENCES.
EACH SUBMISSION WAS INDEPENDENTLY REVIEWED BY THE REVIEW COMMITTEE AND SCORED BEFORE THE EVALUATION TEAM MET TO DISCUSS THE RESULTS AND IDENTIFY THE HIGHEST RANKING FIRMS. THIS PROCESS TOOK ABOUT THREE WEEKS WITH THE NUMBER OF BIDDERS RECEIVED.
FROM THERE, THE PROCESS BECAME EVEN MORE THOROUGH.
WE CONDUCTED EXTENSIVE REFERENCE CHECKS OF THE TOP FIVE CANDIDATES WITH CLIENTS WHO HAD FIRSTHAND EXPERIENCE WORKING WITH THESE FIRMS. WE WANTED TO HEAR DIRECTLY FROM THEM NOT ONLY ABOUT THE FINISHED PRODUCT, BUT ABOUT COMMUNICATION, COLLABORATION, BUDGET MANAGEMENT, PROBLEM SOLVING, AND HOW EACH CONTRACTOR PERFORMED WHEN, WHEN CHALLENGES AROSE FROM THE FOLLOWING REFERENCE CHECKS THE FIELD NARROW TO THREE.
AND WE HAD INVITED THEM TO PARTICIPATE, PARTICIPATE IN INTERVIEWS.
THOSE INTERVIEWS GAVE US AN OPPORTUNITY TO MEET THEIR PROJECT TEAM, SEE THE TEAM'S CHEMISTRY, KNOW THEIR CM, A APPROACH,
[00:10:01]
AND ASK THEIR UNDERSTANDING OF THE CITY'S VISION, AND CONFIRM THEIR COMMITMENT TO PARTNERSHIP WITH THE PROJECT.DURING THESE INTERVIEWS, THE CANDIDATE ALSO GAVE US TOURS OF THEIR COMPLETED PROJECTS AND OR PROJECTS CURRENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION.
SEEING THESE FACILITIES FIRSTHAND ALLOWED US TO REALLY EVALUATE CONSTRUCTION QUALITY, ATTENTION TO DETAIL, AND LONG-TERM MAINTENANCE CONSIDERATIONS, AND SPEAK DIRECTLY WITH NURSE IF PRESENT ABOUT THEIR OVERALL EXPERIENCE.
EACH STEP IN THIS PROCESS BUILDS UPON THE PREVIOUS ONE, ALLOWING US TO MAKE A WELL-INFORMED RECOMMENDATION BASED NOT ONLY ON ONE INTERVIEW OR ONE SCORE, BUT ON A COMPLETE PICTURE OF EACH FIRM'S QUALIFICATIONS, EXPERIENCE, AND DEMONSTRATED PERFORMANCE.
SO AFTER THIS COMPREHENSIVE EVALUATION, ONE FIRM, ONE FIRM CONSISTENTLY DISTINGUISHED ITSELF THROUGHOUT THE EV EVERY PHASE OF THE PROCESS.
SO BASED ON THE OVERALL EVALUATION, INTERVIEW, REFERENCE CHECKS, AND SITE VISITS, DEAN CONSTRUCTION DEMONSTRATED EXCEPTIONAL CMAR EXPERIENCE, EXTENSIVE SPORTS PARK EXPERTISE, OUTSTANDING REFERENCES IN A COLLABORATIVE TEAM APPROACH IN A CLEAR COMMITMENT TO PARTNERSHIP WITH THEIR CLIENTS FROM PRE-CONSTRUCTION THROUGH PROJECT COMPLETION.
SO THEREFORE, ON BEHALF OF THE REVIEW COMMITTEE, WE WOULD LIKE TO RECOMMEND DEAN CONSTRUCTION AS CONSTRUCTION MANAGER AT RISK FOR THE AUBREY SPORTS COMPLEX.
IF THERE'S ANY QUESTIONS, UM, I'D LIKE TO INTRODUCE TYLER FIREBAUGH FROM DEAN CONSTRUCTION, AND HE WILL SPEAK MORE ABOUT THEIR FIRM AND THE SMAR PROCESS.
HOW ARE Y'ALL? I JUST WANNA START BY, THIS IS KIRSTEN GEORGE, THIS IS OUR DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS
UM, I DON'T DO MUCH PUBLIC SPEAKING, SO THIS IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT
BUT FIRST, BEFORE WE INTRODUCE OUR COMPANY AND WHO WE ARE, UM, WE WANNA THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY.
THERE WAS A WHOLE BUNCH OF PEOPLE THAT YOU COULD HAVE CHOSEN FOR THIS, AND WE ARE HONORED TO BE THE ONE STANDING UP HERE BEHIND THIS MIC TONIGHT.
SO, UM, DID YOU WANT TO GO THROUGH THE SLIDES FIRST? SORRY.
SO, WHO WE ARE, WE ARE DOING CONSTRUCTION.
THAT'S THE ONLY THING THAT WE DO.
OVER THE PAST 40 YEARS, WE'VE COMPLETED 444 PARK PROJECTS, 64 OF WHICH WERE THROUGH THE CMAR METHOD.
UM, AND OVER THOSE PAST FOUR DECADES, OH, MIKE'S CLOSER
OVER THE PAST FOUR DECADES, DEAN CONSTRUCTION'S LED THE WAY IN CHANGING EXPECTATIONS AND STANDARDS IN PARK CONSTRUCTION.
UM, WE TAKE PRIDE IN OUR WORKMANSHIP, OUR ABILITY TO MEET A DA STANDARDS, WHICH IS PRETTY UNIQUE TO PARKS.
THERE'S A LOT OF TRAILS AND PLAZAS AND COMPLEXES THAT THE TYPICAL CMAR DOESN'T DEAL WITH ON A DAILY BASIS.
BUT, UM, WE DO THAT BY WORKING CLOSELY WITH CITY STAFF AND ARCHITECTS TO COMPLETE YOUR JOB ON TIME IN BUDGET, AND KEEPING YOUR ORIGINAL VISION IN MIND.
THE CLICKER NEXT ARE EXPERIENCE.
WE SPECIAL, LIKE I SAID, WE SPECIALIZE IN PARKS.
THESE ARE THREE OF THE 444 THAT WE'VE BUILT.
UM, AND EVERYTHING FROM DESTINATION PLAYGROUNDS TO SPORTS COMPLEXES RANGING FROM ONE FIELD, UH, WHAT WAS THE MIDDLE OF THE, LIKE, 20 OR 18? IT WAS, YEAH.
WE, UH, DREAM PARK WAS THE LARGEST ALL-INCLUSIVE, UM, PLAYGROUND.
UH, AT THE TIME WHEN IT WAS BUILT IN TEXAS, WE BUILT JOYA PARK IN, UM, FARMER'S BRANCH, WHICH WAS THE FIRST GLOW IN THE DARK PARK IN THE NATION.
UM, AND THEN THERE, IT JUST, WE TAKE PRIDE IN ALL OF THIS, RIGHT? LIKE A BROADWAY PARK WAS THE FIRST SPLASH PAD THAT WAS EVER BUILT IN TEXAS.
AND THEN WE ACTUALLY, A COUPLE YEARS AGO, WENT BACK AND REDID THAT PART.
THAT'S, YOU KNOW, WE, WE JUST TAKE PRIDE IN WHAT WE DO.
UM, OLD SALINA PARK, WE BELIEVE WAS THE FIRST SEAMAR SPORTS COMPLEX BUILT IN TEXAS, OR NORTH TEXAS AT LEAST, AT THE VERY LEAST.
UM, AND WE BUILT THAT IN 2005, AND THEN THE FIRST ONE USED USING THE CMAR METHOD IN 2005.
UM, AND THEN WE JUST REDID THAT PART 20 YEARS LATER.
UM, AND SO IT IS COOL TO GET CALLED BACK ON SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
UM, I HOPE THIS SHOWS THAT WE KNOW HOW TO DELIVER MUNICIPAL WORK WITH PUBLIC ACCOUNTABILITY, MULTIPLE STAKE HOLDERS AND COMMUNITIES WATCHING YOUR DECISION.
AND THEN WHATEVER WE CAN EXPECT FROM DEAN, FIRST AND FOREMOST IS QUALITY.
[00:15:01]
FOR QUALITY IN EVERYTHING WE DO, AND THEN WE BELIEVE WE ATTAIN THAT BY CLEAR COMMUNICATION.THAT'S THE BIGGEST KEY OF, UM, THE PARK BUILDING PROCESS.
UM, AND THEN THAT LEADS TO COMMUNITY LEGACY.
UM, AND THEN WITH OVER 444 PARKS BEHIND US AND PROVEN CMAR LEADERSHIP, DEAN CONSTRUCTION WILL PROTECT YOUR BUDGET, DRIVE THE SCHEDULE, AND DELIVER A PARK THIS COMMUNITY WE'LL BE PROUD OF FOR GENERATIONS.
THAT'S WHAT D
UM, THE PORTFOLIOS ARE, UM, ANOTHER REPRESENTATION.
IT'S GOT A LOT OF THE PARKS WE'VE BUILT, UH, OVER THE YEARS, SOME OF THE LARGER PARKS.
AND, UM, WE'RE JUST EXCITED TO GET THE OPPORTUNITY TO WORK WITH YOU GUYS.
I MEAN, THIS IS, THIS IS ALL WE DO EVERY DAY.
ANYBODY GOT ANY QUESTIONS FOR HIM WHILE HE'S UP THERE? NO.
MAYOR, INSIDE YOUR BOOKLET, ON THE FIRST PAGE, UH, IT WAS ON THE SCREEN AS WELL, THE MISSION THAT DEAN, UH, PRINTED IN THEIR BOOK.
IT IS OUR MISSION THAT OUR PROJECTS ENRICH THE LIVES OF THE PEOPLE OF OUR COMMUNITY FOR YEARS TO COME THROUGH OUR COMMITMENT TO CHARACTER, HARD WORK, AND INTEGRITY.
WE VISITED TWO SITES THAT DEAN BUILT, ONE MOST RECENTLY THAT'S ALMOST FINISHED, AND ONE THAT WAS SEVERAL YEARS OLD.
WE SAW QUALITY, WE SAW A FAMILY, UH, ENVIRONMENT WITH THEIR TEAM, AND WE REALLY CONNECTED WITH THEM DURING THESE SITE VISITS.
AND WE APPRECIATE THEM FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SEE THEIR WORK.
UH, 'CAUSE IT WAS THE, THE REALLY NICE WORK WE'RE, WE'RE VERY EXCITED AND VERY EXCITED TO HAVE THEM ON THE TEAM.
UH, TWO SITE VISITS WE HAD, WE SAW QUALITY CONSTRUC CONSTRUCTION.
THEY DO LIMITED A LIMITED NUMBER OF PROJECTS IN A YEAR.
TWO LARGE, TWO SMALL FOUR, FOUR TO FIVE PROJECTS.
FOUR TO FIVE PROJECTS SO THAT THEY GIVE US THE PERSONAL TOUCH.
UH, WE WILL HAVE ANY, ANY TIME ACCESS TO THE OWNER, GREG, TO THE PRESIDENT, UH, TYLER AND HIS STAFF.
UH, WE, I HAVE TYLER'S CELL PHONE NUMBER.
HE WAS ON VACATION A WEEK AGO, AND HE ANSWERED IN TWO RINGS WHEN I CALLED HIM TO ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT THEIR, UH, UH, RFP.
UH, WE'RE VERY EXCITED AND I JUST WANTED YOU TO KNOW THOSE THINGS.
WELL, YOU KNOW, IN AUBREY, WE LOOK FOR PEOPLE THAT WE, WE CONNECT WITH AND WE CONNECTED VERY WELL WITH THIS GROUP.
DID YOU WANT ME TO EXPLAIN ANY OF THE CMAR PROCESS? SHE KIND, I, I WAS GONNA SAY, CAN YOU EXPLAIN THE PROCESS JUST A LITTLE BIT SO THAT EVERYBODY UNDERSTANDS WHY WE'RE DOING THIS AND INSTEAD OF A TRADITIONAL, WE'RE JUST GONNA GO OUT FOR, AND AND THAT MAY BE MORE FOR CITY STAFF THAN, SURE.
UH, MY NAME IS KIRSTEN GEORGE.
I'M THE DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS FOR DEAN CONSTRUCTION.
UM, SO THE CMAR PROCESS IS, UM, SOMETHING THAT WE, I MEAN, WE DO, WE DO LOW BID JOBS AS WELL, YOU KNOW, AS FAR AS PERFORMING THEM DIRECTLY.
UM, WE'RE PREFERENTIAL TO THE CMAR, PRO CMAR PROCESS, UM, KIND OF WHERE WE'RE AT WITH THINGS NOW, RIGHT? IS, THIS IS ALL DEPENDENT ON YOUR VOTE TONIGHT FOR US.
UM, AND THEN IF YOU APPROVE US, WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT, UM, IS TO INITIATE, UM, UM, IT'S A TWO PART CONTRACT.
THE FIRST PART OF THE CONTRACT IS GONNA GET YOU INTO THE PRE-CONSTRUCTION SERVICE PHASE OF THINGS.
THIS IS WHERE WE'RE GONNA STEP IN WITH, UM, WESTWOOD AND TRICIA AND START DOING SOME PAGE TURNS ON THE PLANS.
WE'RE GONNA BUILD OUT A 60% BUDGET.
I THINK THAT'S WHERE THE PLANS ARE NOW.
UM, AND PRESENT THAT BUDGET TO YOU ALL.
UM, THE, THE POINT OF THAT FIRST BUDGET IS REALLY TO GET THE NUMBERS IN FRONT OF YOU SO THAT YOU CAN SEE WHERE YOU ARE IN DESIGN VERSUS THE MONEY THAT YOU ACTUALLY HAVE TO SPEND ON YOUR COMPLEX.
IF AT THAT POINT, UM, THE DESIGN PLANS AND THE BUDGET AREN'T QUITE ALIGNED, WE WOULD WORK CLOSELY WITH YOU TO VALUE ENGINEER.
UM, THIS MEANS MAYBE TAKING SOLE SOURCE ITEMS, SO THINGS THAT ARE SPECIFIED TO A SPECIFIC MANUFACTURER AND GOING OUT TO OTHER MANUFACTURERS TO FIND OUT IF THERE'S A MORE COST EFFECTIVE SOLUTION THAT KEEPS YOUR VISION WHERE YOU WANT IT.
UM, SO WE WORK THROUGH THINGS LIKE THAT.
IF THERE ARE ALSO THINGS THAT YOU'D LIKE TO ADD, BECAUSE MAYBE WE'RE A LITTLE UNDER BUDGET, AND THAT'S HAPPENED A COUPLE OF TIMES, NOT MANY, BUT A COUPLE
UM, UM, AT THAT POINT, YOU KNOW, WE WOULD TALK ABOUT ANY ADDITIONS THAT YOU WANT TO MAKE, UM, TO YOUR PROJECT.
UM, IF WE COMMITTED A 60% AND YOU WANT A 60%, AND THEN WE WANT TO DO IT AGAIN AT 90% PLANS, WE WOULD THEN ALSO GIVE YOU, PRESENT YOU WITH A 90% BUDGET.
THAT'S JUST TO KIND OF FINE TUNE EVERYTHING, OBVIOUSLY BEFORE WE PUT THIS
[00:20:01]
OUT.UM, YOU KNOW, IN A PROPOSAL FORMAT FOR OTHER SUBCONTRACTORS, UM, ONCE WE REACH A HUNDRED PERCENT BIDDING PLANS.
UM, NOT TO SAY THAT THERE WOULDN'T BE SOME CHANGES AFTER, BUT YOU KNOW, TYPICALLY THEY'RE PRETTY FINE TUNED AT A HUNDRED PERCENT BIDDING.
UM, WE HAVE A TRUSTED KIND OF TRADE NETWORK OF ABOUT 18,000 SUBCONTRACTORS THAT WE'RE GONNA GET YOUR PLANS IN FRONT OF.
UM, THAT DOESN'T MEAN WE'LL GET 18,000 BIDS, BUT WE'RE GONNA TRY, RIGHT? THAT'S ALWAYS THE GOAL IS LIKE, AS, AS MUCH AS WE CAN.
SO WE'VE BUILT THIS NETWORK OF PEOPLE THAT WE KNOW WE CAN SEND THEM, SEND YOUR PLANS OUT TO AND GET PARTICIPATION ON.
UM, ONCE THE BID PROCESS USUALLY TAKES ABOUT THREE OR FOUR WEEKS, THAT'S REALLY KIND OF DRIVEN BY, YOU KNOW, THE SIZE OF THE JOB AND HOW MUCH TIME EVERYBODY NEEDS TO REVIEW 'EM.
WE KINDA MAKE THAT DECISION BEFORE WE PUT IT OUT TO BID.
IT'LL ADVERTISE FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS.
AND THE, AND, UM, THE NEWSPAPERS, THAT'S A LEGAL ISSUE THAT HAS TO HAPPEN WITH THE CMAR PROCESS.
IT HAS TO BE OUT IN A LOCAL PAPER AS A PUBLIC NOTICE FOR TWO WEEKS.
UM, WE'LL GET THROUGH THE BID PROCESS.
THIS IS, UM, THIS IS WHAT WE'RE, WE'RE TRAINED AT AT THIS POINT.
UM, AND THEN AFTER THE BID PROCESS IS FULLY COMPLETE, UM, WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM US AT THAT POINT IS YOUR GMP, WHICH IS ALSO KNOWN AS A GUARANTEED MAX PRICE.
ONCE WE HAVE THE GUARANTEED MAX PRICE, I BELIEVE, UM, THEY'LL PRESENT IT TO YOU ALL HERE IN COUNCIL FOR YOUR VOTE AGAIN.
AND AT THAT POINT, SHOULD YOU APPROVE THAT GUARANTEED MAX PRICE, WE WOULD ENTER INTO THE SECOND PART OF THE CONTRACT.
UM, SO NOW IT'S THE CONSTRUCTION BASE OF THE CONTRACT THAT'S GOING TO LOCK IN THAT GUARANTEED MAXIMUM PRICE.
UM, AND JUST FINALIZE ANYTHING, YOU KNOW, ANY LEGALITIES THAT YOU ALL, UM, FEEL COMFORTABLE PUTTING IN YOUR CONTRACT, UH, BEFORE WE START CONSTRUCTION.
UM, AFTER THAT IS, UM, AFTER THAT'S COMPLETED, IT, AT THAT POINT, IT'S A MATTER OF, UH, HAVING A HUNDRED PERCENT CONSTRUCTION SET OF PLANS, RECEIVING A NOTICE TO PROCEED FROM THE CITY.
WE TYPICALLY START WITHIN 10 DAYS OF THAT NOTICE TO PROCEED.
WE'LL START DEMO AND EARTH WORK ON YOUR PROJECT.
SO THAT'S KIND OF WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM HERE TO THAT POINT.
SO HAVING DONE ONE OF THESE BEFORE, I KNOW IT IS NICE TO HAVE THE CONTRACTOR INVOLVED IN THE END OF DESIGN, AND YOU CAN VALUE ENGINEER A BUNCH OF STUFF AND HOPEFULLY SAVE US A FEW DOLLARS IN THE PROCESS.
UM, BUT WE ALSO GET A BETTER PRODUCT BECAUSE WE HAVE THE CONTRACTOR INVOLVED AS WE FINISH DESIGN.
UM, WE REALLY RESPECT WHAT TRICIA DOES.
UM, SO MUCH IT, BUT WE DO ALSO, AND I, AND I KNOW THAT TRICIA WOULD PROBABLY AGREE THAT DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTABILITY ARE KIND OF TWO DIFFERENT THINGS, RIGHT? AND SO WHAT'S ALSO REALLY IMPORTANT ABOUT US BEING INVOLVED RIGHT NOW AT THE 60% IS THAT WE'RE GONNA GET OUR TEAM IN FRONT OF THESE PLANS.
AND SO IF WE'RE SEEING, LIKE MAYBE WHERE THERE'S SOME GRADING ISSUES WHERE, AS HE MENTIONED EARLIER ABOUT LIKE THE A DA STUFF, RIGHT? YOU, YOU CANNOT BE ABOVE 5% ON YOUR SIDEWALKS IN, IN THE PARK SPACE.
YOU KNOW, THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE WOULD HOPE THAT WE'RE CATCHING DURING DESIGN.
AND WHAT THAT PREVENTS IS DURING CONSTRUCTION, YOU EXPECTING TO RECEIVE CONTINGENCY USE, USE REQUESTS FROM US, UM, WHERE WE'RE FINDING A, YOU KNOW, NOT THAT THERE WON'T BE ANYTHING, RIGHT, BUT, YOU KNOW, WE HOPE THAT WE'RE CATCHING MOST OF THAT LONG BEFORE WE GET IT OUT TO BID.
AND THAT REALLY IS, IT'S CRITICAL AT THIS POINT TO GET, HAVE A CONTRACTOR INVOLVED FOR THAT REASON.
ANY MOTIONS ON ITEM 18? MOTION TO APPROVE THE, AND AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO, UM, NEGOTIATE THE CONTRACT WITH DEAN CONSTRUCTION.
SECOND, MR. MY CHUCK SECOND BY MIKE ON PHONE PASSES FOUR TO ZERO.
UM, ITEM 11, HOLD A PUBLIC HEARING.
CONSIDER AND ACT ON ORDINANCE NINE 60 DASH 26 APPROVING A SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN AND ASSESSMENT ROLE FOR AUTHORIZED IMPROVEMENTS WITHIN THE POWELL MAINO PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT.
WE OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING AT 6 25.
UH, WE HAVE SEVERAL PI RELATED ITEMS ON THE AGENDA.
THIS FIRST ONE IS A PUBLIC HEARING AND ORDINANCE ON THE PALOMINO PI.
[00:25:01]
THAT, WE HAVE FOUR PID SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN UPDATES AND ASSOCIATED ORDINANCES, UH, ABDI SEEN FROM UNICAP IS HERE TO PRESENT AND ADDRESS ANY QUESTIONS.ABDI SEEN WITH UNICAP, YOUR PI IN PARIS ADMINISTRATOR.
UH, THE FIRST ITEM THAT YOU HAVE BEFORE YOU IS THE, UH, ASSESSMENT LEVY FOR THE PALOMINO PERIOD.
UH, THIS PAST MONTH, THE PRELIMINARY SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN WAS PRESENTED FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION, ALONG WITH, UH, A COST DETERMINATION RESOLUTION.
AND AS PART OF THAT RESOLUTION, A PUBLIC HEARING WAS CALLED TO BASICALLY LEVY THE ASSESSMENT ON THE PROPERTY.
SO THIS IS THAT FINAL PRO FINAL PROCESS FOR LEVYING THE ASSESSMENT ON THE PROPERTY.
UH, THIS PARTICULAR PIT, UH, IS CONTEMPLATED TO BE BILLED FOR TO ABOUT 300 UNITS, UH, ABOUT 30 FOOT EACH.
THE TOTAL PIT ELIGIBLE IMPROVEMENT COSTS ARE ESTIMATED TO BE ABOUT 7 7 9 $0.5 MILLION.
UH, OF THAT AMOUNT, APPROXIMATELY 5.6 MILLION WILL BE FUNDED THROUGH THE PIT, AND THE BALANCE WILL BE, UH, BASICALLY ABSORBED BY THE DEVELOPER.
UM, WHEN THE ASSESSMENT IS LEVIED, UH, AND ONCE HOMEOWNERS START PAYING IT, THEIR ANNUAL PAYMENT WILL BE ABOUT $1,650, UH, FOR ABOUT 30 YEARS.
UM, AGAIN, WE HAVE THE FINAL SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN BEFORE YOU, HOPEFULLY YOU HAD A CHANCE TO LOOK AT IT.
AND IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER.
UH, IF YOU, IF NOT, THEN WE RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THAT SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN, AND THE ORDINANCE LEVYING THE ASSESSMENT.
ANY QUESTIONS ON THE PALOMINO? ANY PUBLIC INPUT? NO.
WITH THAT, WE'LL CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AT 6 27.
MAY OUR MOTION TO APPROVE THE ORDINANCE APPROVING THE SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN FOR AUTHORIZED IMPROVEMENTS WITHIN THE PALOMINO PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT AND LEVYING AS ASSESSMENTS AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
MOTION BY MIKE, SECOND BY CANDACE.
ALL IN FAVOR PASSES FOUR TO ZERO.
RECEIVE A PRESENTATION AND CONSIDER AN ACT ON ORDINANCE NUMBER 9 6 7 DASH 26.
ACCEPTING AND APPROVING AN UPDATE OF THE ANNUAL SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN AND UPDATED ASSESSMENT ROLE FOR THE CITY OF AUBREY JACKSON RIDGE PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT.
AND, UH, UH, MAYOR AND COUNCIL.
UH, THIS IS, UH, AN ANNUAL, UH, BASICALLY, UH, PROCESS THAT WE REQUIRE TO, TO, TO DO FOR PS.
SO, UH, I'LL COVER THE NEXT FOUR.
THE GOOD THING IS WE ONLY COME BEFORE YOU ONCE A YEAR.
UM, SO CHAPTER 3 72 OF THE TEXAS LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE THAT GOVERNS PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICTS REQUIRES THE SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLANS FOR EACH BID TO BE UPDATED EACH YEAR.
SO COUNCIL WILL GET AN UPDATE ON THE STATUS OF THE, UH, DEVELOPMENT, UH, AND ALSO APPROVE A BUDGET FOR THE BID, AND KNOW ABOUT SOME ADDITIONAL CHANGES, PARTICULARLY WITHIN THE DISTRICT, LIKE IF THERE'S ANY METHODOLOGY CHANGE OR PREPAYMENTS AND THINGS LIKE THAT.
SO THIS IS, UH, THE ANNUAL UPDATE.
I BELIEVE THIS IS THE 10TH ANNUAL UPDATE FOR JACKSON RIDGE.
AND, UH, WE HAVE A FEW, UH, FOR THE OTHER PITS AS WELL.
UH, SO THAT, THAT THE, THE, THE LAW, THE PIT ACT REQUIRES CERTAIN ASPECTS OF THE, THE SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN TO BE UPDATED.
LIKE THE, UH, THE BUDGET FOR THE, THE, THE PROJECTS, THE CHANGES IN, UH, UH, ASSESSMENTS AGAINST THE PROPERTIES, THE ANNUAL BUDGET, THE AMOUNTS THAT NEED TO BE COLLECTED FOR THE YEAR, IF THERE ARE CHANGES TO THE ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY AS TO HOW ASSESSMENTS ARE, ARE BEING DISTRIBUTED TO THE DIFFERENT PROPERTIES.
IF THERE WERE CHANGES TO THE PARCELS WITHIN THE DISTRICT, IF THERE ARE PREPAYMENTS, UH, THAT, YOU KNOW, HOMEOWNERS CHOOSE TO PAY OFF THEIR ASSESSMENT IN FULL OR IN PART.
UM, SO THIS IS BASICALLY A SUMMARY OF THAT, THOSE CHANGES.
UH, WE, WE PREPARED THAT AS AN, AN ANNUAL UPDATE AND PRESENTED, UH, YOU KNOW, FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION.
UH, AS YOU'LL NOTICE, UH, IF YOU HAVE A CHANCE TO LOOK AT IT, UH, EVERY PROJECT IN JACKSON BRIDGE IS COMPLETED, WHICH IS, UH, WINDRIDGE IS COMPLETED.
THAT MEANS THERE, THERE ARE NO UPDATES ON THE PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT SIDE.
UM, PHASE ONE, UH, LAST YEAR THE, OUR TOTAL BUDGET WAS 5 570 $6,000.
THIS YEAR, OUR TOTAL BUDGET FOR PHASE ONE IS $513,000.
UH, THAT AMOUNT, UH, A GOOD CHUNK OF THAT AMOUNT WILL BE USED TO PAY, UH, A PRINCIPAL AND INTEREST ON THE BONDS.
UH, OUR DEBT SERVICE THIS YEAR IS SLIGHTLY LOWER THAN LAST YEAR, MAINLY BECAUSE, UH, WHEN WE REFUNDED THE BONDS, UH, UH, BUT, UH, LAST YEAR, THE LATTER PART OF THE YEAR BEFORE WE, UH, FUNDED, UH, THE SMALL RESERVES THAT WE BUILT, WE FUND EACH YEAR.
SO AS YOU CAN SEE IN THIS BUDGET, THAT 54,000, UH, 600 THAT WE COLLECT EACH YEAR IS NO LONGER NEEDED.
SO THE PROPERTY OWNERS GET A BREAK ON THAT ONE.
SO THEIR BUDGET IS GONNA BE ABOUT THAT 513,000 GOING FORWARD.
SO THAT THIS, THAT'S ONE OF THE, THE KIND OF THE POSITIVE OUTCOMES OF THAT REFUNDING THAT COUNCIL APPROVED, UH, ABOUT LAST YEAR.
UM, SO ON A PER LOT BASIS, AS YOU CAN SEE, A 60 FOOT, UH, UH, PROPERTY OWNER INJECTION IN PHASE ONE WAS PAYING ABOUT $2,200.
NOW THEY'LL BE PAYING ABOUT $2,040.
[00:30:01]
SO THAT'S, THAT'S A, A LITTLE BIT OF KIND OF A SAVING 50 FOOT WILL WAS PAYING ABOUT $1,820.NOW THEY'LL BE PAYING ABOUT $1,692, UM, FOR PHASE THREE.
SO THE ORIGINAL BONDS THAT WERE ISSUED BACK IN 2015 COVERED BOTH IN SPECIFIC PHASE AND IN THE ENTIRETY OF THE DISTRICT.
OF THE ENTIRETY OF THE DISTRICT.
PHASE THREE MAJOR IMPROVEMENTS ARE STILL REMAINING.
UH, SO LAST YEAR WE NEEDED TO COLLECT ABOUT $48,532 FOR THOSE BONDS THAT ARE STILL OUTSTANDING FOR THE, UH, MAJOR IMPROVEMENT AREA.
THIS YEAR, WE'LL ONLY NEED TO COLLECT ABOUT 1600 AND, UH, $16,113.
AND THAT'S MAINLY BECAUSE WE HAVE A LOT MORE, UH, TERMS INCREMENT GENERATED, WHICH WAS, UH, WENT UP FROM 242 UP TO 271.
SO WE'LL ONLY NEED TO COLLECT ABOUT $16,113 FROM THE PROPERTY OWNERS IN THE PHASE THREE AREA FOR THE MAJOR IMPROVEMENTS, UM, THAT AGAIN, BEFORE THURSDAY AND AFTER, BEFORE THURSDAY WAS 747 LAST YEAR, IT'LL BE 742 THIS YEAR AFTER THIRD, THAT AMOUNT WILL BE VERY, VERY MINIMAL.
IN PHASE TWO, UH, LAST YEAR, WE NEEDED TO COLLECT $618,496.
THIS YEAR, WE ONLY NEED TO COLLECT $556,819.
AGAIN, THIS IS THE RESULT, PRIMARILY THE RESULT OF THAT REFUNDING WHEREBY WE NO LONGER NEED TO COLLECT THAT ADDITIONAL RESERVE.
BUT $56,650 IS NO LONGER NEEDED TO BE COLLECTED.
SO THAT, AND THAT'S THE OUTCOME OF THAT, THE REFUNDING.
SO GOING FORWARD, THE BUDGET WILL BE ABOUT THAT $556,000, UH, ON A PER LOT BASIS.
UH, 60 FOOT OWNER IN PHASE TWO WAS PAYING 202 2,200, $230.
LAST YEAR, IT'LL BE ABOUT 2075.
THIS YEAR, A 50 FOOT LOT WAS PAYING $1,851.
LAST YEAR, I'LL BE ABOUT 1722 THIS YEAR.
AND PHASE THREE A, UH, OUR BUDGET LAST YEAR WAS 256,745.
THIS YEAR, IT'S ACTUALLY $270,000.
AND THEN THE REASON FOR THAT IS BECAUSE WE HAD SOME EXCESS FUNDS THAT WE WERE ABLE TO GIVE AS A CREDIT.
LAST YEAR, AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE BUDGET, WE HAD ABOUT $17,000 IN UNUSED FUNDS THAT WERE, WE WERE ABLE TO USE AS AN OFFSET.
BUT THIS YEAR WE ONLY HAVE $3,000.
SO, WELL, WE DIDN'T, WE DON'T HAVE AS MUCH, UH, IN EXCESS FUNDS THAT WE CAN USE AS A CREDIT.
THAT'S WHY THE BUDGET WENT UP.
BUT AS YOU CAN SEE, IN THE SUBTOTAL OF THE PAID EXPENSES, THE EXPENSES ARE PRETTY MUCH THE SAME.
SO THE DIFFERENCE IS ENTIRELY ABOUT EXCESS FUNDS THAT WE NO LONGER HAVE TO PROVIDE TO THE PROPERTY TOO.
WE NO LONGER HAVE TO BASICALLY USE AS A CREDIT FOR THE PROPERTY OWNERS.
SO, UH, ON A PER LOT BASIS, LAST YEAR, PROPERTY OWNER WAS PAYING ABOUT 1,303 1000 HUNDRED $3.
UH, THIS YEAR, UH, THEY'LL BE PAYING ABOUT $1,372.
AND AGAIN, LIKE I SAID, THAT'S ENTIRELY BECAUSE OF THAT CREDIT.
THAT'S, THAT'S NOT AVAILABLE ANYMORE IN PHASE THREE B.
UH, LAST YEAR OUR BUDGET WAS $565,315.
THIS YEAR'S ACTUALLY SLIGHTLY LOWER.
IT'S $558 AND, UH, 500, 550 $8,103.
UH, AGAIN, THAT'S, UH, ACTUALLY A RESULT OF, UH, REDUCTION INTEREST PAYMENT.
SO THE BUDGET IS PRETTY MUCH THE SAME IN IN PHASE THREE B.
LAST YEAR, 60 FOOT WAS PAYING ABOUT $2,507.
THIS YEAR THEY'LL BE PAYING ABOUT $2,484 AND 50 FOOT, WELL WAS PAYING ABOUT $2,080, AND THEY'LL BE PAYING 2060 $2, UH, UH, PER, PER LOT FOR A 50 FOOT OWNER.
SO THERE WERE NO CHANGES FOR THE ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY.
SO THE PROPERTY OWNERS, UH, ASSESSMENT IS BEING CALCULATED CONSISTENT WITH A A AS IT WAS THIS PAST YEAR.
AND THERE WERE NO PARCEL SUBDIVISIONS THAT ACTUALLY IN, IN JACKSON RIDGE.
ALL PHASES HAVE BEEN SUBDIVIDED, FINAL PLAT HAS BEEN RECORDED.
SO THERE ARE NO MORE, NO MORE SUBDIVISIONS, UH, TO BE, TO BE UPDATED.
UH, BUT, UH, FOUR PROPERTY OWNERS HAVE CHOSEN TO PAY OFF THEIR ASSESSMENT IN FULL, IN PHASE ONE AND ONE PROPERTY OWNER CHOSE, UH, TO PAY PARTIALLY IN PHASE TWO.
WE HAVE FOUR PROPERTY OWNERS THAT PAY THEIR ASSESSMENT IN FULL AS WELL.
UH, WE DON'T HAVE ANY PREPAYMENTS IN PHASE THREE A.
AND WE HAD ONE PARCEL OWNER THAT CHOSE TO PAY OFF, UH, UH, THEIR ASSESSMENT IN FULL AS WELL IN, IN PHASE THREE B.
UM, SO AGAIN, LIKE I SAID, HOPEFULLY YOU HAD A CHANCE TO LOOK AT THE, THE BUDGET.
UH, SO ONCE, UH, IF, IF YOU HAVE, IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER.
BUT ONCE YOU APPROVE IT, YOU KNOW, THIS, THIS, UH, WE WILL COMMUNICATE THAT INFORMATION OUT TO THE TAX ACCESS COLLECTOR SO THEY CAN INCLUDE IT IN THE TAX BILL.
WE'LL, WE'LL ALSO RECORD THE ORDINANCE WITH THE, WITH, WITH THE COUNTY CLERK AS REQUIRED, UH, BY THE KIND OF CHANGES TO THE BID ACT WITHIN SEVEN DAYS.
AND WE'LL ALSO PUT A COPY OF THE ANNUAL SERVICE PLAN UPDATE ON, ON THE CITY WEBSITE AND UNICAP WEBSITE FOR PEOPLE, YOU KNOW, TO SEE IF ANYBODY HAS ANY, ANY, ANY NEED TO, TO DO THAT.
ANY QUESTIONS ON JACKSON RIDGE? MOTION TO APPROVE ORDINANCE 9 67 26.
ALL IN FAVOR PASSES FORWARD TO ZERO.
ALRIGHT, RECEIVE A PRESENTATION AND CONSIDER AN ACT ON ORDINANCE NUMBER 9 6 8 DASH 26, ACCEPTING AND APPROVING AND UPDATED, UH, OF THE ANNUAL SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT
[00:35:01]
PLAN AND UPDATED ASSESSMENT ROLE FOR THE CITY OF HARBOR WIND RIDGE SOUTH PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT.AND SAME REQUIREMENTS, SAME UPDATE FOR THIS PARTICULAR PERIOD AS WELL.
UH, UM, THIS PROJECT IS ALSO COMPLETED, SO THERE ARE NO UPDATES TO THE PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT, UH, COSTS.
UH, OUR BUDGET LAST YEAR WAS, UH, $638,029 THIS YEAR AT $660,714.
AND AGAIN, THIS IS ENTIRELY BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE ANY CREDIT TO PROVIDE.
WE HAD ABOUT 35,000 IN EXCESS FUNDS LAST YEAR.
WE WERE ABLE TO USE AS A CREDIT, BUT THIS YEAR WE ONLY HAVE $6,000.
SO THE CHANGE IN, IN THE BUDGET IS ONLY BECAUSE OF THAT.
AS YOU CAN SEE, THE ACTUAL, THE PIT EXPENSES ACTUALLY WENT DOWN.
IT'S JUST THAT WE DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH, UH, EXCESS FUNDS TO BE ABLE TO CREDIT AS WE DID LAST YEAR.
SO THE PIT BUDGET, ACTUALLY, THE PIT EXPENSES WERE 673,000 LAST YEAR.
THIS YEAR, THEY'RE ACTUALLY $666,000.
SO THE ACTUAL EXPENSES WENT DOWN.
BUT BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH EXCESS FUNDS TO GIVE US A CREDIT, THE NET BUDGET IS, IS HIGHER THAN LAST YEAR.
UM, THIS PAST YEAR, A PROPERTY OWNER WAS PAYING ABOUT $1,882.
THIS YEAR, THEY'LL BE PAYING ABOUT $1,954.
UH, AGAIN, NO CHANGES TO THE ASSESSMENT METHODOLOGY.
UH, THERE WERE NO PARCEL SUBDIVISIONS.
UH, AGAIN, THIS, THIS PARTICULAR PIT HAS BEEN FULLY SUBDIVIDED, SO THERE ARE NO, NO, NO, NO SUBDIVISIONS.
UH, MOVING FORWARD, UH, TWO PROPERTY OWNERS HAVE CHOSEN TO PAY THEIR ASSESSMENT IN FULL AS WELL IN THIS PARTICULAR PIT.
UM, AGAIN, UH, HOPEFULLY YOU HAD A CHANCE TO LOOK AT THE, THE, THE ANNUAL UPDATE.
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER.
SHORT OF THAT, YOU KNOW, WE RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE ORDINANCE, SO WE CAN RECORD THAT WITH THE COUNTY CLERK AS NEEDED.
AND ALSO PUT IT ON THE CITY WEBSITE AND THE MCAP WEBSITE.

UM, AGAIN, THIS, THIS PARTICULAR PERIOD IS STILL IN THE WORKS.
SO OF THE TOTAL $30.5 MILLION, ABOUT 10.4 MILLION HAS BEEN SPENT SO FAR, UH, ABOUT 20.1 MILLION IS LEFT TO SPEND.
SO THIS, THIS, THIS PROJECT IS STILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION FOR THE PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE.
UH, THIS PAST YEAR WE DIDN'T NEED TO COLLECT ANYTHING BECAUSE THE, YOU KNOW, THE BOND DEBT SERVICE WAS PAID FROM CAPITALIZED INTEREST THAT WAS HELD BACK FROM THE BONDS.
BUT WE ARE OUT OF THAT CAPITALIZED INTEREST PERIOD.
SO WE NEED TO COLLECT 2,289,798 THIS YEAR.
AND THAT AMOUNT WILL BE COLLECTED ENTIRELY FROM THE DEVELOPER.
'CAUSE THEY, THEY, THEY'RE THE SOLE OWNERS OF THE PARCEL WITHIN THE, WITHIN THE DISTRICT.
UM, SO LIKE YEAR, LIKE I SAID, LAST YEAR, WE DID NOT HAVE ANY BILLING.
THIS YEAR, WE WILL BE COLLECTING THAT $2.289 MILLION FOR ASSESSMENT PAYMENT.

UH, THERE WERE NO SUB, IN FACT, THERE ARE NO SUBDIVISIONS YET.
THEY STILL, THE PUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURE IS STILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION, UH, NO PREPAYMENTS, UH, UH, UH, IN THIS PARTICULAR BID AS WELL.
SO, UH, AGAIN, HOPEFULLY YOU HAD A CHANCE TO LOOK AT THE, THE, THE REPORT YOU HAVE.
ANY QUESTIONS, I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER.
SHORT OF THAT, WE RECOMMEND APPROVAL, SO WE CAN FILE THAT WITH THE, THE CLERK'S OFFICE AND, UH, POST IT ON THE WEBSITES AS REQUIRED BY, BY LAW AS WELL.
WAS THERE AN ADMINISTRATIVE FEE ON THIS ONE? YES, SIR.
THE DEVELOPER DOESN'T WANT TO PRE-PAY THIS ONE.

THIS YEAR, IT'S ACTUALLY 1 MILLION 68, 2 86 AGAIN, UH, THAT IT'S, IT'S LOWER THAN LAST YEAR.
AND THAT, THAT REDUCTION IS ENTIRELY RELATED TO THE TERMS CREDIT THAT WE WERE ABLE TO PROVIDE LAST YEAR.
THE CREDIT THAT THAT PROPERTY IS GENERATED FROM TAXES PAY TO THE CITY WAS ABOUT $25,000.
SO THAT RESULTED IN REDUCTION IN, IN THE OVERALL BUDGET FOR, FOR THE PROPERTY OWNER.
SO IT'S ENTIRELY TIED TO THAT, UH, UH, TAX INCREMENT CREDIT THAT THEIR PROPERTY OWNERS ARE GETTING.
UM, SO THE ASSESSMENT, AS YOU CAN SEE, IS
[00:40:01]
SLIGHTLY LOWER THAN LAST YEAR.UH, 50 FOOTERS, WE'RE PAYING ABOUT $4,200 THIS YEAR.
THEY'LL BE PAYING 42 63 THIS PAST YEAR.
