[ Consider and Possible Action]
ACTION AUTHORIZED AWARD AND EXECUTION OF A CONTRACT WITH BURGESS AND NIPPLE, UH, IN AUSTIN, TEXAS, AND IT AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $158,190 FOR UPDATING THE CITY'S WASTEWATER SYSTEM MODEL.MR. BARBARA, THANKS FOR COMING.
I'D LIKE TO CALL A POINT OF ORDER PLEASE.
UM, NOT THE LAST MEETING, BUT THE MEETING PRIOR TO IT WAS AGREED UPON AND VOTED ON AND APPROVED THAT ALL COUNCIL MEMBERS ITEMS WOULD BE AT THE TOP.
I AM, UM, WANTING TO PUT THAT AT THE END, UH, BECAUSE I BELIEVE THAT, UH, THE CONVERSATION NEEDS TO HAPPEN BETTER.
THERE GIVES US AN OPPORTUNITY TO GET THROUGH STAFF ITEMS FIRST.
UH, UH, SO, UH, I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO SPIN THE RULES OF COUNCIL AND ALLOW FOR, UH, THAT ITEM TO BE, UH, TAKEN UP AT THE END SECOND.
IT'S MOVED BY THE MAYOR, SECONDED BY MAYOR PRO TIM, IS THERE DISCUSSION ON THAT MOTION? THAT'S FROM THE BRADSHAW.
I'M ACTUALLY GLAD THAT THIS CONVERSATION CAME UP BECAUSE I HAVE AN ITEM ON THE NEXT AGENDA THAT I'M SPECIFICALLY GOING TO REQUEST TO BE PUT AT THE END.
SO I'M NOT SURE HOW WE WOULD LIKE TO DEAL WITH THIS MOVING FORWARD, BUT I DEFINITELY THINK THAT THERE SHOULD BE AN EXCEPTION OR IT PLAYED BY A CASE BY CASE BASIS.
HOW CAN YOU TELL US HOW THAT WORKS PAGE? WE MADE A MOTION AND IT PASSED LAST MEETING FOR LAST.
AND SO MY ISSUE IS IF WE JUST NEED TO BE CONSISTENT.
SO IF NOTHING ELSE I'D LIKE TO SEE HAVE AT LEAST WRITTEN AT THE TOP.
AND THEN IF THEY WANTED AT THE BOTTOM, THAT COULD BE THEIR DECISION ULTIMATELY, BUT I'D LIKE TO SEE THEM ALL PLACED EITHER AT NUMBER ONE OR TWO.
UM, I'M PULLING UP THE RULES OF COUNSEL WITHOUT LOOKING AT IT.
UM, I THINK THAT PROBABLY IT'S ADVISABLE TO, UH, GIVEN THAT THE RULES NOW STATE THAT THE, UM, COUNCIL DIRECTED, REQUESTED AGENDA ITEMS GO AT THE TOP OF THE AGENDA AND THE CATEGORY IN WHICH THEY FIT THAT THEY'D BE PLACED THERE.
AND THEN THE RULES OF COUNCIL, I BELIEVE CAN BE SUSPENDED.
I'M PULLING THAT UP AND THAT CAN BE TAKEN UP AT THE MEETING AND THE MEETING.
THE COUNCIL CAN DECIDE TO REORDER THOSE AT THE MEETING.
UM, THE OTHER OPTION IS THE COUNCIL MEMBERS REQUESTING AN ITEM ON THE AGENDA CAN SPECIFICALLY REQUEST TO BE PLACED AT THE END.
SO WE HAVE A MOTION TO SECOND ON, UH, ON THE FLOOR.
UH, WE WANT TO, UH, PASS THAT VOTE.
WE CAN, UH, AND THEN WE'LL STOP WITH THIS AND WE'LL TAKE UP THE, UH, COUNCIL ISSUE.
UH, OTHERWISE WE'LL LEAVE IT AS IS, IS THERE FURTHER DISCUSSION ON THE MOTION? OKAY.
WHO MADE A MOTION? I MADE A MOTION AND A SECOND BY MAYOR PROTEIN TO SUSPEND THE RULES TO COUNSEL AS IT RELATED TO THAT PARTICULAR ITEM.
SO IS THERE DISCUSSION ON THAT MOTION? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, SAY AYE.
[00:05:01]
ELLISON BRADSHAW, MITCHELL FLORES, KALE.NEXT STEP BUDGET ITEM NUMBER FIVE AUTHORIZED AWARD, AND A EXECUTION OF A CONTRACT WITH BIRGISSON NIPPLE IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $158,190 FOR UPDATING CITY'S WASTEWATER SYSTEM MODEL.
DID WE EVER TAKE ON ITEM NUMBER FOUR? THAT'S WHAT WE'RE ON NOW.
THE POINT OF ORDER WAS CALLED IN BETWEEN, BUT IT WAS APPROPRIATE TO CALL IT THERE.
MAYOR AND COUNCIL, LEON BARBARA CITY ENGINEER, MARION COUNCIL.
WE, UH, I WAS HERE WHEN WE, I WAS ASKED TO IMPLEMENT A WATER AND A WASTEWATER MODEL BACK IN 20 13, 20 14, WHICH WE DID.
WE SELECTED BURGESS UNIPOLAR AS THE CONSULT TO DO THE WATER AND THE WASTEWATER MODEL.
UH, WE FINALLY GOT THE FINAL REPORT BACK IN MAY OF 2016 AND, UH, HAD A LOT OF RECOMMENDATIONS IN THERE, GAVE US A LI CIP LIST OF THAT WE NEEDED TO WORK ON, UH, TRY TO GET FUNDED SO WE COULD, UH, IMPROVE THE CAPACITY OF OUR SYSTEM, OUR WASTEWATER SYSTEM, AND, UH, 2017.
WE DID ANOTHER VERY QUICK STUDY WITH BURGESS IN APRIL.
UH, THEY UPDATED THEIR INFORMATION AND, UH, ONE OF THE THINGS THEY DIDN'T DO AT THAT PARTICULAR TIME WAS TO DO THE CALIBRATION OF THE ASSISTANT.
TYPICALLY WHAT THEY DO IS THEY PUT THESE, UH, UH, MONITORS OUT IN OUR STORM SEWER OR WASTEWATER LINES, MODEL MANHOLES, AND KIND OF CHECK THE CLOTHES THAT THEY'VE GOT COMPARED TO WHAT THEIR CALCULATIONS SHOW.
UH, WE ARE ASKING COUNCIL TO APPROVE THIS PARTICULAR PRO UH, CONTRACT WITH BURGESS TONIGHT, BUT WE NEED TO UPDATE THE WASTEWATER MODEL.
UH, WE, UM, WE'LL BE GETTING SOME MORE CALIBRATION OF OUR SYSTEM.
WE'VE HAD A LOT OF DEVELOPMENTS VENETA ADDED ONTO OUR PROJECTS.
UM, OUR, OUR SYSTEM, WE HAVE, UH, ANOTHER MAJOR DEVELOPMENTS COMING IN.
SO WE NEED FOR THEM TO GIVE US ANOTHER QUICK LOOK AT OUR SYSTEM AND MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE PROPERLY SIZING OUR LINES.
THAT THE LINES THAT WE'RE TRYING TO UPSIZE ARE PROPERLY SIZED AND THAT WE'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE ANY ISSUES WITH OVERLOADING OUR SYSTEM.
AND SO WE'RE ASKING COUNCIL TO APPROVE THIS PARTICULAR PROPOSAL FOR APPROACH SEMI-PRO.
DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS MOTIONS I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE? UM, ACTION ITEM NUMBER FOUR, MOVED BY MAYOR PRO TEM SECONDED BY COUNCIL MEMBER.
TOBIA DID WE APPROVE AGENDA ITEM NUMBER FOUR? IS THERE DISCUSSION ON THE MOTION? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, SAY AYE.
THAT'S AN F THAT YOU VOTED YES.
ON THAT, RIGHT? DANIELLA, SORRY.
IT'S UH, THERE'S A LITTLE BIT OF A DELAY.
I THINK MY, MY SOUND IS LIKE A LITTLE BEHIND, SO OKAY.
I'LL I'LL I'LL TRY TO GO SLOWER ON THE, ON THE CALLS.
NEXT UP AGENDA ITEM NUMBER FIVE, AUTHORIZED AWARD AND EXECUTION OF A PURCHASE ORDER TO S H I A MEMBER OF BUYBOARD AND AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $212,501 FOR THE PURPOSE OF PROVIDING SERVICES FOR CARDIOGRAPH, FOR THE ASSET MANAGEMENT AND WORK ORDER SYSTEM IMPLEMENTATION AND SUPPORT SERVICES TO BE UTILIZED BY PUBLIC WORKS, PARKS AND REC FACILITIES, ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES, AND TRAIN.
GOOD EVENING, MATT DAWSON, DIRECTOR OF IT.
UH, THE ITEM BEFORE YOU IS TO AWARD CARDIOGRAPH, UM, OUR ASSET MANAGEMENT AND WORK ORDER SYSTEM FOR THE CITY.
AND THIS WILL BE PREDOMINANTLY USED BY PUBLIC WORKS.
UM, THIS COST HERE FOR 212,000 WILL BE THE FIRST-YEAR COST THAT IMPLEMENTATION TRAINING AND SUPPORT COSTS TO ALL THOSE DEPARTMENTS.
UH, YOU SEE THERE AND, UH, OPEN TO ANY QUESTIONS AND I HAVE JULIE HERE TO HELP ME AS WELL.
ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? CUSTOMER FLOOR SCALE.
UM, MY FIRST QUESTION IS, ARE WE GOING TO OWN THE SOFTWARE? THIS IS A SAS, SO WE ARE RENTING IT EVERY, UH IT'S IT'S IN THE CLOUD.
SO EVERY YEAR WE'LL PAY A SUBSCRIPTION, BUT THIS THERE'S NO CONTRACT ON THIS ONE.
I SEE, UM, UNDER SOLUTIONS, SUBSCRIPTION INVOICING THAT IT'S GOING TO INCREASE $9,727 AND 13 CENTS OVER FIVE YEARS.
UM, AND THEN ON TOP OF THAT, IT LOOKS LIKE ON 5.4, THERE'S A POSSIBLE FEE INCREASE AS WE RENEW.
UM, AND SO IF WE DON'T OWN IT, IT LOOKS LIKE WE CAN LIKE, SAY FOR EXAMPLE, IT GOES UP ANOTHER 20,000, UM, IF WE DON'T OWN IT AND WE DON'T DECIDE NOT TO GO WITH THEM, DO WE HAVE TO START WITH ANOTHER SOFTWARE ALL OVER AGAIN? UM, SO, AND JUMP IN HERE.
SO THIS, THIS AGREEMENT IS FOR FIVE YEARS.
AND ULTIMATELY WE CAN CANCEL IT ANYTIME WITH NO PENALTY.
UM, YES, THE, THERE IS A, I MEAN, YOU TYPICALLY WILL SEE ASSP, UM, YOU KNOW, PROVIDER CHARGE AN INCREMENTAL FEE OVER FIVE YEARS.
UM, AND THEN ULTIMATELY THE USE OF THE FEES AND WHAT SECTION YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT FEES ARE IN SECTION 5.4, WHICH IS, UM, THE POSSIBILITY OF A FEE INCREASE, WHICH I THINK AT THAT TIME, I'M SURE IT'LL INCREASE SOMETHING.
MY ONLY FEAR IS IF IT INCREASES TO A
[00:10:01]
POINT THAT THE CITY DOESN'T WANT TO RENEW, WE HAVE TO START ALL OVER AGAIN.JULIE COOKSON ASSISTANT DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS.
SO YES, WE W LIKE IF AFTER FIVE YEARS WE DECIDED TO GO TO A DIFFERENT SOFTWARE, WE'D HAVE TO LEARN A BRAND NEW SOFTWARE, BUT ALL OF OUR DATA WOULD TRANSFER.
SO LIKE, WE WOULDN'T LOSE RECORD OF THE WORK THAT HAD BEEN DONE.
I DON'T KNOW IF THAT EXACTLY ANSWERS YOUR QUESTION, BUT HOPEFULLY THAT ALLEVIATES THAT.
SO WE COULD EVENTUALLY MERGE THE INFORMATION TO ANOTHER SOFTWARE TO, YES.
IS THERE A SOFTWARE OUT THERE THAT COULD BE MORE PERMANENT THAT WE COULD AT LEAST OWN? SO IN CASE WE DECIDE, I MEAN, SOMETIMES THE ONES I LOOKED AT WERE SOFTWARE AS A SERVICE.
LIKE EVERY SINGLE OPTION I LOOKED AT RAN THAT WAY, THERE WASN'T NONE OF THEM THAT I CAN THINK OF OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD, OR YOU OWN THE SOFTWARE.
AND THE BENEFIT OF THAT IS CHOREOGRAPHS ALREADY TOLD US THEY DO QUARTERLY UPDATES.
SO THEY'RE CONTINUALLY FIXING AND MANAGING AND MAKING THE SOFTWARE BETTER.
WHEREAS IF WE OWNED IT, WE WOULDN'T GET THE BENEFIT OF THOSE UPDATES EACH QUARTER.
AND WITH THAT, I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE AGENDA ITEM FIVE, MOVED BY CUSTOMER FLOORS, KALE SECONDED BY COUNSELOR IN BRADSHAW THAT WE PROVED YOU AN ITEM.
NUMBER FIVE, IS THERE DISCUSSION ON THE MOTION CUSTOMER TOBY'S OKAY.
JUST SO TO CLARIFY, ON, ON THE OWNING THE SOFTWARE, BECAUSE IF WE OUTRIGHT BUY THE SOFTWARE IN, LET'S SAY TWO YEARS, IT GETS UPGRADED, THEN WE'D HAVE TO GO IN AND BUY A WHOLE NEW SYSTEM, CORRECT.
WHERE THIS IS CONTINUOUSLY UPGRADING AND TAKING OUT ANY KIND OF VIRUSES, ANY KIND OF PROTECTION WE'LL HAVE WHEN IT COMES TO THE DATA.
IS THAT ONE OF THE REASONS WHY WE'RE BRINGING IT UP TO WHAT COUNCILMAN FLORIDA COUNCILPERSON FLORES HAD BROUGHT UP ABOUT OWNING IT? IS, IS THAT THE WHOLE REASON WHY? YES, THERE'S PLENTY OF PURCHASE WITH THE SUBSCRIPTION MODEL THAT MOST PLATFORMS ARE KIND OF MOVING TOWARDS, BUT THAT DEFINITELY ONE OF THEM.
BECAUSE LOOKING AT THE SUBSCRIPTION INVOICING AGAIN, HOW THERE'S FIVE TERMS, I GUESS THAT'S FIVE YEARS, UH, OF THE INCREASE.
BUT ONE OF THE MAIN PURCHASES, UPGRADES, CONSTANT UPGRADES.
ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? ALL IN FAVOR, SAY AYE.
NEXT UP AGENDA ITEM NUMBER SIX, UH, SIX, SEVEN AND EIGHT ARE ALL, UH, RELATED TO THE VIBE.
I THINK THE INTENTION WAS TO BRING BACK THE ENGINEERING CONTRACT, BUT WE'RE UM, THAT'S GOING TO COME ON THE NEXT ONE.
SO, UM, SCOTT'S RECOMMENDATION IS GO AHEAD AND MOVE FORWARD.
MOVING FORWARD WITH THESE ITEMS AS WELL.
SO IF THERE ARE NO OBJECTIONS, WE'LL TAKE THEM UP.
NEXT UP AGENDA ITEM NUMBER SIX, SECOND.
READING IN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 41 OF THE CITY OF KYLE CODE OF ORDINANCES FOR THE PURPOSE OF MODIFYING A MUNICIPAL UTILITY EASEMENT SECTIONS, CROSSWALK SECTIONS, SIDEWALKS, AND STREETLIGHTS, ET CETERA.
A WILKINSON SENIOR PLANNER FOR THE RECORD.
UH, THIS ITEM IS RELATED TO THE VIBES SUBDIVISION CODE UPDATES.
UH, THERE WERE A FEW ITEMS ON IT THAT NEEDED TO BE UPDATED FROM THE LAST VOTE, UH, PRIMARILY, UM, MAKING SURE THAT WE CLARIFIED, UM, WHERE THE TRAIL COULD BE IN TERMS OF FLOOD PLAIN FLOODWAYS IN THAT THOSE ITEMS. SO, UM, ESSENTIALLY WHAT IT SAYS IS, UM, AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, YOU NEED TO AVOID FLOOD WAYS AND, AND, OR DRAINAGE AREAS.
AND THEN THERE WAS ALSO A REQUEST TO ADD IN, UM, EMERGENCY CALL BOXES ALONG THE VIBE TRAIL SYSTEM AS WELL.
UM, AND SO I COORDINATED WITH CHIEF TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAD GOOD LANGUAGE FOR THAT, AND I TOSSED IT IN THERE.
SO ALL THE REQUESTS FOR THE UPDATES THAT WERE VOTED ON ARE ADDED INTO THIS UPDATE.
UM, DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? I'VE GOT ONE FOR CHIEF, IF YOU WANT TO JUST QUICKLY ON THE CALL BOXES.
IF, IF THE TRAIL DOESN'T HAVE NORMAL MARKERS FOR, FOR STREETS IS THE, THE IS NOT ON AN EXACT STREET.
SO IF SOMEONE CALLS OFF OF THE BOX WILL BE, DOES THE TECHNOLOGY ALLOW FOR YOU TO KNOW EXACTLY WHERE THEY'RE AT AT ABSOLUTELY.
WE'LL BE ABLE TO TRACK THE EXACT LOCATION OF THAT BOX BY CALL NUMBER THAT WHEN IT COMES INTO DISPATCH, IT WILL BE ABLE TO INDICATE EXACTLY WHERE THEY ARE ON A MAP.
UM, AND JUST THE CREATION OF THIS AGENDA.
CAN I ASK WHO PUT THE PREVIOUS VOTE ON THERE? THE INFORMATION CAUSE THAT'S VERY HELPFUL.
UM, AND SO I REALLY APPRECIATE WHOEVER DRAFTED THIS OR WHOEVER DECIDED TO PUT CITY COUNCIL VOTE IS SEVEN ZERO TO APPROVE FIRST READING.
UM, BECAUSE I OFTENTIMES HAVE TO GO BACK AND FIGURE OUT WHAT I DID THE FIRST TIME.
SO I'M NOT SURE WHO DID THAT, BUT I SURE APPRECIATE HOW THE NEXT, ALL THREE SAY.
I BELIEVE IT WAS, UM, IT WAS JENNIFER, JENNIFER.
[00:15:02]
JUST REAL QUICK IN SECTION 41, 1 46, ABOUT THE STREET LIGHTS.UH, IT SAYS THE PRIVATE STREET LIGHTING AND HOA MAINTAIN DECORATIVE STREET LIGHTING, UM, AND SEXUAL WELLNESS AS A DEVELOPER RACHEL WAY SHALL HAVE A CHOICE BETWEEN THE STANDARD STREETLIGHTS AND CITY APPROVED DECORATIVE LIGHTS.
UM, SO I GUESS THEY'LL BE MAINTAINING THE LIGHTS THEMSELVES OR WILL THE CITY.
IT IS THE EXPECTATION THAT THE, UM, THAT THE DEVELOPER, WHENEVER THEY BUILD THEIR SECTION OF THE VIBE, THEY WILL BE MAINTAINING THAT SECTION.
AND IN THE SAME AREA, AS YOU MAINTAIN THE SIDEWALK IN FRONT OF YOUR HOUSE FOR OUR CODE THAT WE HAVE.
SO I KNOW IN CERTAIN NEIGHBORHOODS, EVERYBODY HAS DIFFERENT STREET LIGHTS.
UM, ESPECIALLY LIKE IF YOU GO TO STEEPLECHASE AND YOU GO TO KINSTON IN YOUR COURSE TO GO TO PLUM CREEK, UM, OR THEY, WE ALL GOING TO BE EVENTUALLY ALL THE SAME SIZE AS FAR AS THE DEMENTIA, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU GO TO LAYMAN ROAD, IT'S DECORATIVE THERE, BUT IT'S STILL AN OPEN FIELD.
AND SOME OF THAT SIDEWALK AREA THAT WAS STILL VERY, NOT AS LATE AS SOME OF THE BIG, HIGHER POLES THAT IS IN SOME OF THE OTHER AREAS.
SO WE NOW HAVE A STANDARDIZED POLL THAT WE HAVE.
UM, AND, AND JUST SO YOU'RE, WE'RE ON THE SAME PAGE.
THAT SECTION WAS ACTUALLY, UH, ALREADY PREVIOUSLY PASSED LAST YEAR WHEN WE UPDATED OUR CODE, UM, WE TALKED ABOUT THEY HAD THE CHOICE.
UM, BUT YES, THERE IS A STANDARDIZED, UM, POLL.
IT'S NOT IN THIS SECTION OF THE UPDATES BECAUSE IT WASN'T A SECTION WE'RE ACTUALLY UPDATING IT'S ENOUGH, SUBSECTION E I THINK, UM, AND IT REFERENCES SPECIFIC MAKE AND MODEL.
AND THEN THERE'S THE STANDARD DETAIL ONLINE HAS A VISUAL ALSO OF THAT LIGHT.
ANYONE ELSE? UM, MOTIONS I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE A 10 ITEM NUMBER SIX, MOTION BY MAYOR PRO TEM RIZZO.
TOBIA THAT WE APPROVED AND ITEM NUMBER SIX.
IS THERE DISCUSSION ON THAT MOTION? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, SAY AYE.
I GOT AT THAT TIME MOTION CARRIES SEVEN TO ZERO.
NEXT UP AGENDA ITEM NUMBER SEVEN, SECOND.
READING IN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 53 OF THE CITY OF KYLE, UH, CODE OF ORDINANCES FOR THE PURPOSE OF MODIFYING PARKING DISTRICTS AND BOUNDARIES, UH, UH, PLAN DEVELOPMENT, ART, UH, AND ADDING REQUIREMENTS FOR THE CITY-WIDE TRAIL SYSTEM.
ONCE AGAIN, SENIOR PLANNER, UM, THIS ITEM SPECIFICALLY DIDN'T ACTUALLY HAVE ANY AMENDMENTS, UM, AT THE LAST VOTE, UH, IT WAS SEVEN TO ZERO AND Y'ALL HAD Y'ALL WERE IN AGREEMENT WITH PNC TO ALLOW A MAXIMUM OF 26 PARKING SPACES, UM, PER, PER DEVELOPMENT.
IT JUST DIDN'T PASS THE FIRST READ.
SO THE QUESTION I HAVE IS, AS IT RELATES TO THE AMENDMENT IS THE AMENDMENT NOW.
AND I'VE ASKED THIS BEFORE AND NOW I'M ALWAYS CONFUSED AS TO WHICH IS CORRECT, BUT IF WE APPROVED IT WITH THE AMENDMENTS ON THE FIRST READING OR THE AMENDMENTS INCORPORATE INTO SECOND READING, WHEREAS ALL IT'S REQUIRED AS A VOTE TO APPROVE AND THEN THE AMENDMENTS PASS WITH IT.
SO THE DOCUMENT THAT SAYS THE VIBES ZONING ORDINANCE P AND Z AMENDMENT IS THE ACCURATE DOCUMENT I HAD BOTH OF THEM ON THERE, JUST SO Y'ALL COULD REFERENCE IT BACK TO THE FIRST TIME.
ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS MARY I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE AGENDA ITEM NUMBER SEVEN SECOND.
MOTION BY MAYOR PRO TEM RIZZO SECONDED BY COUNCILLOR.
TOBY IS THAT WE PROVED YOU INTO ITEM NUMBER SEVEN.
UH, IS THERE DISCUSSION ON THE MOTION AND JUST TO BE CLEAR YES.
VOTING INCORPORATES THE AMENDMENTS, CORRECT? ONE MORE TIME.
NEXT UP AGENDA ITEM NUMBER EIGHT.
THE SECOND READING AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF KYLE TEXAS AMENDING CHAPTER 47.
UM, UH, THE CITY CODES, UH, UH, PERMITTED LOCATION OF OPERATION, REGISTRATION PERMITS, UH, ET CETERA, RELATED TO, UH, LOW-SPEED VEHICLES.
MAYOR JEFF BARNETT, CHIEF OF POLICE FOR THE RECORD.
I'LL BE BRIEF AS THIS IS THE SECOND READING THE COUNCIL DIRECTED LAST TIME THAT WE ADD LANGUAGE THAT SPECIFICALLY IDENTIFIES THE SPEED LIMIT ALONG THE TRAILWAY SYSTEM.
WE'VE ADDED SECTION 47 DASH 180 5, 8, 10.
THAT STATES NOT TO EXCEED 25 MILES PER HOUR.
WHEN OPERATING ON THE TRAILS ARE TRAILWAYS.
WE ALSO ADDED A 11 THAT SAYS THEY SHALL FOLLOW ALL TRAFFIC CONTROL DEVICES AND OTHER SIGNAGE WHEN OPERATING ON PERMITTED STREETS AND TRAILWAYS AS INSTRUCTED.
ANY QUESTIONS ON THIS ITEM? COMMENTS MOTIONS MAY I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE AGENDA ITEM NUMBER EIGHT, MOTION BY MAYOR PRO TEM RIZZO SECONDED BY COUNCIL MEMBER.
IS THERE DISCUSSION ON THAT MOTION?
[00:20:02]
ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, SAY AYE.NEXT UP AGENDA ITEM NUMBER NINE, DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION ON A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL, THE CITY OF KYLE TEXAS ACCEPTING THE PETITION FOR THE CREATION OF SAVANNAH PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT AND CALLING A PUBLIC HEARING ON THE PROPOSED PIG CREATION FOR MARCH THE FIRST 2022, MR. SELLERS.
SO THIS ITEM IS THE PETITION FOR THE PAID CREATION AND IT SETS THE DATE FOR THE PUBLIC HEARING IS MARCH 1ST.
SO THERE IS A SCHEDULE IN YOUR BACKUP MATERIAL, BUT, UH, THE PUBLIC HEARING WOULD BE MARCH 1ST AND THE FIRST READING OF THE TERS WOULD BE FEBRUARY 15.
SO EVERYTHING WOULD COME DUE ON MARCH 1ST FOR THE CREATION OF THE PID, THE DA, THE TERRORS AND THE ANNEXATION FOR SAVANNAH DISTRICT.
SO THE, THE, THE GOAL OF ALL THIS IS TO GET ALL OF THE DIFFERENT COMPONENTS KIND OF LINED UP TO GIVE THEM A SCHEDULE SO THAT WE CAN HAVE A VOTE ON THE ENTIRETY OF THE PROJECT BY, BY MARCH 1ST BY MARCH 1ST.
UH, ANY QUESTIONS FOR MR. SELLERS? MAYOR? I LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE AGENDA ITEM NUMBER NINE.
IT'S BEEN MOTION BY MAYOR PRO TEM RIZZO, SECONDED BY COUNCIL MEMBER BRADSHAW THAT WE APPROVE AGENDA ITEM NUMBER NINE.
IS THERE DISCUSSION ON THAT MOTION? UH, UH, I THINK WE HAVE THE DEVELOPER JUST TO ASK HIM, UM, JUST CONFIRM THAT WE'RE STILL ALL MOVING FORWARD IN THAT DIRECTION.
CAUSE WE'VE GOT A WHOLE, WE'VE GOT A WHOLE LOT COMING FORWARD, UH, EXCITED, I THINK, TO TRY TO BRING ALL THIS FORWARD, BUT JUST, YOU ALL ARE COMFORTABLE WITH THE DIRECTION THAT WE'RE GOING STILL.
WE'VE ALL KIND OF PUT TOGETHER A SCHEDULE THAT I THINK ALL TEAMS CAN ADHERE TO AND WE'RE COMFORTABLE WITH THAT DIRECTION.
CAN YOU STATE YOUR NAME FOR THE RECORD? SORRY.
UH, ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR ADRIAN? ALL RIGHT.
UH, NEXT STEP AGENDA ITEM NUMBER 10, PRESENTATION OF THE DOWNTOWN MASTER PLAN AND DIRECTION TO STAFF TO DRAFT ASSOCIATED, UH, CODE AMENDMENTS TO IMPLEMENT DOWNTOWN OVERLAY AN ARCHITECTURAL STANDARD.
UH, MR. ATKINSON, UH, UH, WILL DECIDE THEM ALSO DOES HAVE A, UH, UH, AN ELEMENT OF IT THAT NOT ALL OF YOUR PRESENTATION, BUT SOME OF IT WILL BE DISCUSSED I BELIEVE IN EXECUTIVE SESSION.
SO THERE'S A, YOU KNOW, IF THERE'S A DESIRE TO HAVE THAT EXECUTIVE SESSION CONVERSATION FIRST, THAT MIGHT BE SOMETHING THAT WOULD MAKE A LITTLE BIT MORE SENSE.
DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY OBJECTIONS TO, UH, HOLDING OFF ON THIS UNTIL WE COME OUT OF EXECUTIVE SESSION? ALL RIGHT.
I'M GOING TO BRING UP AGENDA ITEM, NUMBER 11, DISCUSSION REGARDING A PLAQUE IN HONOR OF MARY CAL HARTSON CITY SQUARE PARK.
UM, UH, CITY COUNCIL, AS Y'ALL KNOW, IS WE, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE A, UM, WE HAVE, WE HAVE FOUR PROJECTS, UH, THAT ARE UNDER CONSTRUCTION RIGHT NOW, UH, THAT ARE CITY SPONSORED CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS THAT TYPICALLY INVOLVE, UH, SOME SORT OF, UH, CUSTOMARY DEDICATION PLAQUE.
UH, THE FIRST ONE THAT'S COMING UP IS MARY CALL HARTSON.
SO TO, TO BE CLEAR, UH, THE, UH, COUNCIL PLAQUE OR A CITY PLAQUE HASN'T BEEN, UH, DESIGNED OR, OR BUDGETED, ALTHOUGH IT HAS BEEN, UM, UH, DISCUSSED A FEW DIFFERENT TIMES.
SO I WANTED TO BEFORE A COUPLE OF THINGS, UH, NUMBER ONE IS, UH, MAKE SURE THAT THE COUNCIL BELIEVES THAT WE SHOULD BE PURSUING THIS AND MAKE SURE WE'RE ALL READ IN AND ON THE SAME PAGE.
UH, AND THEN, UH, GET SOME FEEDBACK FROM STAFF AS FAR AS THE, UH, THE BEST PROCESS THAT WE SHOULD LOOK AT AS FAR AS GOING DOWN THAT LIST.
SO, UM, MARY KYLE HARTSON, UH, WE'VE, I'VE HAD SOME CONVERSATIONS WITH, UH, COLEMAN GROUP ABOUT IT.
I THINK THEY ARE WILLING TO PROPOSE, UM, A, UH, A PLAQUE THAT ALLOWS FOR, UH, ARE THE NAMES OF THE COUNCIL MEMBERS WHO'VE BEEN IN INVOLVED AS WELL AS THE ARCHITECT AND THE, UH, CONTRACTOR, UH, AS WELL AS RELEVANT STAFF TO COME FORWARD.
UH, I THOUGHT ABOUT PROPOSING TO THE COUNCIL, ALSO A, A SECTION THAT BASICALLY MIMICKED THE MARY CAL HARTSON WIKIPEDIA PAGE.
THAT BASICALLY THERE'S A, IF YOU LOOK AT THE WIKIPEDIA PAGE, THERE'S A, WRITE-UP ON MARY CARHARTTS AND THAT'S REALLY, UM, PRETTY GREAT.
AND I ACTUALLY EVEN KIND OF WROTE SOMETHING UP, BUT, UM, WHEN I WAS THINKING ABOUT ALL THIS MARY CALL HARTSON PARK WAS UNDER CONSTRUCTION.
SO I MISSED THE FACT THAT MARY KAY, KYLE HARTSON, AND EVEN A PORTION OF WHAT I WAS GOING TO RIDE IS ALREADY ON THE MAIN PLAQUE.
[00:25:01]
SO THAT KIND OF FELT LIKE IT DIDN'T REALLY MAKE SENSE TO, TO WRITE ABOUT MARY CARHARTTS AND TWICE, UH, IN, IN THE PARK.BUT, UM, THE, THE IDEA THAT CAME FORWARD, I BELIEVE THAT, UM, SAMANTHA AND AND COLEMAN HAD A CONVERSATION ABOUT THIS SHE'S BEEN DEALING AND HAVING CONVERSATIONS WHEN THEY WITH ANNE COLEMAN, UH, WAS TO MAKE SOMETHING THAT COULD BE SOMEWHAT INTERACTIVE, NOT, NOT NECESSARILY LARGE, BUT IT WOULD ALSO MAYBE INCORPORATE A BELL THAT KIDS COULD RING.
UH, THAT WOULD BE AN HOMAGE TO OUR CURRENT BILL THAT, THAT WE CURRENTLY HAVE.
UH, AND THEN THE LAYOUT FOR THE COUNCIL NAMES AS, UH, AS I THOUGHT, OR AT LEAST IT'S WHAT I WANTED TO PROPOSE, REALLY JUST PUT IT ON THE BASIS OF, UH, TENURE.
SO ALL COUNCIL MEMBERS WHO WERE ON THE COUNCIL BETWEEN THE TIME OF, UH, UH, FIRST SPENDING MONEY ON THE ARCHITECTURE, WHEN ARCHITECTURE, WHEN WE FIRST MADE THAT VOTE, UH, AND THEN UP TO THE DEDICATION, WHICH WAS DECEMBER 1ST WOULD BE THERE AS WELL AS TF, HARPER, COLEMAN, AND ASSOCIATES, UH, OUR, UH, JERRY HENDRICKSON, OUR ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER, UH, UH, UM, JAMES URBAN, UH, CITY MANAGER.
AND, UH, THAT'D BE ABOUT IT, I THINK FOR IT.
SO IT WAS NOT A, NOT A HUGE PLAQUE WITH LOTS OF NAMES, BUT IT WOULD BE A COUNCIL PLAQUE.
SO THE PLAN TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THAT WOULD BE TO HAVE COLEMAN, UH, DESIGNED SOMETHING.
AND THEN, UH, THE, UH, FUNDS I BELIEVE COULD BE PROBABLY ABSORBED AS A CONTINGENCY BUDGET.
UH, SO I DON'T THINK IT WOULD TAKE A WHOLE LOT, BUT IT WOULD BE, YOU KNOW, SOMETHING THAT WOULD BE KIND OF NICE.
AND I WOULD IMAGINE WHENEVER IT'S DONE, UH, WE MIGHT, WOULD EVEN WANT TO HAVE, UH, SOME KIND OF, UH, I DON'T KNOW, SOMETHING, SOME KIND OF CEREMONY OR SOMETHING TO HONOR, UH, AND, AND CONSUMMATE THE, THE CONCLUSION OF THE PARK WITH THAT PLAQUE, BUT I'M BRINGING IT FORWARD BECAUSE I DON'T WANT IT TO JUST NOT HAPPEN BECAUSE WE WEREN'T PROACTIVE.
UH, AND THEN ALSO, BECAUSE REALLY, I THINK THE TIME IS NOW AS THE PROJECT IS NEARING ITS END.
SO WHAT I WAS WANTING TO PROPOSE WAS TO HAVE A COLEMAN COME BACK WITH A DESIGN, SOMETHING THAT WE COULD ALL LOOK AT AND, AND APPROVE AND, UH, UH, BUDGET AND SCOPE AS WELL, AND THEN, UH, AUTHORIZED THEM TO MAKE THAT CHANGE OUT OF CONTINGENCY.
SO THAT'S THE PLAN THAT I'D LIKE TO PROPOSE, AND I DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE GOING ANY STEPS FURTHER WITHOUT BRINGING IT FORWARD TO COUNCIL FOR Y'ALL TO HAVE A DISCUSSION.
SO, UH, DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY THOUGHTS CUSTOMER TOBY'S? YES, I DO.
UH, FIRST OF ALL, THANK YOU MAYOR FOR, UM, BRINGING THIS TO THE DYES, TO WHERE WE COULD BE ABLE TO SPEAK IN PUBLIC ABOUT IT, BECAUSE IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT THE RESIDENTS KNOW THAT THERE WERE SO MANY PEOPLE INVOLVED IN THIS, UH, PLANNING OF THE PARK SO MUCH HARD WORK HAS, HAS, UM, BEEN INVOLVED.
AND THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT NEED TO BE RECOGNIZED FOR THIS, BECAUSE AGAIN, IT'S A LEGACY THAT WE'RE GOING TO LEAVE BEHIND FOR, FOR THE RESIDENTS AND IT NEEDS TO BE RECOGNIZED.
SO THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THIS FORWARD.
UH, I THINK THE IDEA OF SOMETHING SIMILAR TO A BELL, UH, WOULD BE UNIQUE, UH, ESPECIALLY POSSIBLY WHERE THE CHILDREN'S SECTION IS.
UM, IF ANYBODY GOES BY THE PARK NOWADAYS, UH, COMPARED TO WHAT WE HAD AT THE, UH, EVENTS WITH CHRISTMAS, UH, PEOPLE STILL GO OUT THERE AND THERE'S A LOT OF FAMILIES THAT ARE STILL ENJOYING THE PARK AS WE SPEAK.
SO I THINK IT WOULD BE A NEAT IDEA TO WHERE IT COULD HAVE A, LIKE A LITTLE COMMEMORATIVE LITTLE ITEM THERE FOR ALL THE HARD WORK OF ALL THE PEOPLE THAT WERE INVOLVED.
SO, UH, AS FAR AS COUNCIL, UM, THAT COULD BE DISCUSSED WITH ALL THE REST OF US TO SEE WHERE THEY STAND ON THAT.
BUT I THINK THIS IS A GOOD IDEA TO RECOGNIZE CITY STAFF AND NOT ONLY JUST SAY STAFF, BUT JUST EVERYBODY WHO PLAYED A PART IN DESIGNING THAT GREAT PARK THAT WE HAVE OUT THERE.
SO I APPRECIATE THAT VERY MUCH.
UH, ONE THING I WANT TO ADD IS, WAS HOPING THAT THIS WOULD BE SOME KIND OF A TEMPLATE FOR HOW WE WOULD MOVE FORWARD.
SO THE, THE THOUGHT OF, UM, THE, THE STAFF AND THE, UH, ORDER OF COUNCIL AND THE WAY WE DETERMINE WHOSE NAMES WOULD BE ON IT, AND HOPEFULLY IT WOULD BE SOMETHING THAT WE COULD CONSISTENTLY APPLY, BECAUSE I THINK WE'RE GOING TO HAVE THIS DISCUSSION A TOTAL OF THREE MORE TIMES THIS YEAR, MOST LIKELY.
SO, UM, NOT NECESSARILY ANY ACTION THAT WE NEED TO TAKE NOW, BUT, UH, IT WOULD BE PROBABLY HEALTHY AND GOOD TO GIVE STAFF THAT DIRECTION ALSO COLEMAN SO THAT COLEMAN CAN KNOW THAT, YOU KNOW, THAT THE, UM, YOU KNOW, WHAT THEY'RE DESIGNING IS SOMETHING THAT HAS SUPPORT MY PRO TIP AND MAYOR, THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THIS FORWARD TO THE DIOCESE.
I, I DEFINITELY APPRECIATE IT AS WELL.
UM, YOU KNOW, I THINK THAT'S A GREAT IDEA OF MAKING IT INTERACTIVE FOR THE KIDS.
[00:30:01]
PART OF IT.UM, SEEING THE KIDS OUT THERE RINGING THE BELL ALREADY.
MY, MY COMMUTE HOME, UM, FROM AUSTIN EVERY AFTERNOON USED TO BE BY WAY OF ST.
SO COMING DOWN BURLESON, UM, EVER SINCE THE PARK'S BEEN DONE, I MAKE SURE THAT NO MATTER WHICH WAY I COME INTO KYLE PASS BY THE PARK EVERY AFTERNOON, AND IT GIVES ME A LOT OF JOY TO SEE THE FAMILIES OUT THERE.
I MEAN, THIS PARK WAS PRETTY MUCH EMPTY HALF THE TIME, MAJORITY OF THE TIME, AND TO SEE THE FAMILIES OUT THERE AND SEEING THE FAMILIES OF KYLE ENJOYING THE PARK AND SEEING THE KIDS RUNNING AROUND JUST IS JUST HEARTWARMING.
I MEAN, UM, I CAN'T STRESS ENOUGH HOW HAPPY IT MAKES ME, BUT, AND, UH, I'VE GOTTEN A LOT OF FEEDBACK FROM A LOT OF THE ORIGINAL RESIDENTS OF KYLE, AND THEY'RE REALLY HAPPY TO SEE THAT AS WELL.
UH, I KNOW THERE'S A, UM, A RESIDENT OF KYLE HAS BEEN HERE THAT WAS REALLY IMPORTANT TO OUR CITY AS WELL.
UM, MR. FRANKIE, AND HE CALLS ME CONSTANTLY AND HE TELLS ME, MAN, I LOVE SEEING THE KIDS OUT THERE AND THAT REALLY WARMS MY HEART TO HEAR THAT FEEDBACK.
AND, UH, I THINK, UM, I THINK THIS MIGHT BE THE RIGHT DIRECTION, THE ROW, SOMETHING THAT WOULD GIVE THE KIDS SOMETHING INTERACTIVE TO DO.
SO MY ONLY CONCERN WITH THAT WOULD BE FOR THE UPCOMING PROJECTS, BECAUSE WE DO HAVE A NEWER COUNCIL MEMBER WHO WILL BE PRESENT FOR THOSE RIBBON CUTTING CEREMONIES OR GROUNDBREAKING CEREMONIES.
UM, AND LIKE YOU MENTIONED FOR THIS ONE, THE DECEMBER 1ST WOULD BE OBVIOUSLY THAT WAS BEFORE THE ELECTION DATE, BUT FOR THOSE, I MEAN, I THINK IT WOULD ONLY BE RIGHT TO ENSURE THAT ALL PARTIES PRESENT ARE ADDED TO THE PLAN.
THAT IS THAT THAT'S MY UNDERSTANDING OF HOW, HOW WOULD YOU GO ALSO? SO COUNCIL MEMBER, PARTIALLY BECAUSE WE DEDICATED THIS ON DECEMBER 1ST, UH, WOULDN'T BE ON THIS ONE, BUT SHE'D BE ON THE THREE REMAINING, UH, FOR THAT.
SO, UH, THE TWO ADDITIONAL, THE TWO, UM, UH, OBVIOUSLY MY PRO TEAM COACH OR CUSTOMER COACH WOULD BE ON THIS AS WELL AS COUNCIL MEMBERS SHE'LL AND VIA LOBOS.
CAUSE THEY WERE ALSO PART OF THE INITIAL BOAT TO AUTHORIZE THE, UH, UH, ENGINEERING OR DESIGN.
SO THAT'S, THAT'S BASICALLY THE, THE WINDOW, UH, OF, OF TIME, AT LEAST THAT I THOUGHT FOR DETERMINING WHO WOULD OR WOULD NOT CUSTOMER PARTIALLY.
UM, SO I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT, I THINK IT'S A GREAT IDEA WHAT YOU'RE SUGGESTING, UM, HAVING A LITTLE, UM, I DON'T KNOW, SOMETHING THAT TALKS A LITTLE ABOUT THE STORY OF THE PARK, UM, ABOUT THE STORY OF MARY KAY HARTSON AND MAYBE AT THE BOTTOM SAYING, YOU KNOW, AFTER YOU HAVE BEEN READING, AFTER YOU READ ALL THE STORY, THEN YOU CAN RING THE BELL JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT, YOU KNOW, YOU'RE RINGING THE BELL AS YOU KNOW, THAT HISTORY BEHIND THAT.
UM, AND YEAH, SO OF COURSE I DON'T WANT TO HAVE ANYTHING, LIKE, I DON'T WANT MY NAME ANYWHERE BECAUSE I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.
UM, BUT I THINK IT'S A GREAT IDEA WHAT YOU ARE SUGGESTING.
THAT'S IT? CUSTOMER FORCE COUNT.
I THINK MY ONLY CONCERN WITH A BELL OR SOMETHING THAT MAKES NOISE IS THE PEOPLE IN THE SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOODS.
UM, I, IT DEPENDS ON HOW LOUD THE BELL IS.
I WOULD HATE FOR KIDS TO GO THERE AND JUST ALL DAY LONG.
YEAH, IT WOULD HAVE TO BE SOMETHING, UH, I MEAN, I, TO, TO MAKE MY NEIGHBORS UPSET, I BUY TOYS THAT MAKE NOISE FOR THEIR KIDS JUST TO AGGRAVATE THEM.
I DON'T KNOW IF, IF A BELL IS THE ANSWER, BUT YOU KNOW, OR ANYTHING THAT MAKES NOISE BECAUSE THAT PARK IS PRETTY CLOSE TO SURROUNDING HOMES.
AND SO, UM, I'D LIKE TO SEE SOMETHING IN THERE, BUT BEFORE WE PUT IT OUT THERE, MAYBE WE CAN TEST IT OUT TO MAKE SURE, OR IF IT'S TOO LOUD TO SWITCH OUT, YOU KNOW, THERE COULD BE SOME WAY TO MUTE IT IF IT BECOMES A PROBLEM LIKE WITH THE DIFFERENT, I THINK WE CAN PLAY AROUND WITH DIFFERENT MATERIALS, CUSTOMER PARSLEY.
OH NO, NO, I DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY.
I WAS RECENTLY MADE AWARE OF ONE OF THE GENTLEMEN WHO PLANNED AND HELPED DIRECT THE ORIGINAL BELL AND MONUMENT ON THE SQUARE.
UH, AND ELTON SAID THAT, UH, BACK WHEN THAT BELL WAS DESIGNED, IT HAS THE ELECTRICAL PARTS IN IT, JUST MISSING A MOTOR FOR THE BELL TO BE RUNG, JUST, YOU KNOW, EITHER ON THE HOUR, YOU JUST HOWEVER PROGRAMMED.
SO THE BELL CAN BE RUNG THE ORIGINAL BELL.
AND THAT WAS THE INTENT JUST MINUS THE MOTOR.
SO HE WAS HAPPY TO HEAR THAT, UM, WE WERE DOING WORK IN THE PARK.
HE'S HAPPY TO HEAR THAT WE WERE CONSIDERING THE BELL AS SOME SORT OF, UH, ADDITIONAL COMMEMORATIVE PIECE.
AND HE'D BE HAPPY TO BE PART OF THE, THE REVIEW PROCESS AS WELL.
UM, I AGREE WITH, UH, DOING THIS IN THE PARK AND OUR FUTURE PROJECTS.
WE'VE HAD, UM, A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT THINGS, UH, THAT HAVE BEEN BUILT IN OUR CITY FROM THE PUBLIC WORKS, BUILDING THE PLAQUE ON THE CITY WALL, UH, CITY HALL HERE,
[00:35:01]
UH, THERE'S ONE IN GREG CLARK PARK AND OTHER AREAS.UM, THOSE HAVE BEEN MORE TRADITIONAL PLAQUES.
THEY ALL KIND OF LOOK THE SAME, YOU KNOW, HAVE A NUMBER, AS YOU MENTIONED, THE, UH, COUNCIL THAT WAS INVOLVED, CITY MANAGER, UH, KEY STAFF, THE ARCHITECT, THE, UH, CONTRACTORS, UM, AND THEIR NICE PLAQUES.
UH, BUT I THINK IT'S PRETTY UNIQUE THAT, UH, KIND OF COMING WITH A SLIGHTLY MORE UNIQUE, UH, APPROACH TO IT.
SO THAT'S, I THINK THAT'S PRETTY COOL.
UM, AND PERHAPS THERE'S WAYS TO DO THAT AND THE OTHER OPPORTUNITIES COMING UP THIS YEAR AS WELL.
UM, I'M IN MS. SUPPORTIVE THIS, I WOULD JUST LIKE, UH, JUST FOR MY OWN, UH, RESEARCH PURPOSES, IF WE COULD GET A LIST OF ALL THE PEOPLE THAT ARE, UH, BEING PROPOSED TO BE ON IT.
UM, CAUSE I DO WANT TO MAKE SURE WE INCLUDE EVERYONE THAT WAS A PART OF THAT AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE AND LOOKING BACK AT THE TIMELINES AND WHEN THINGS WERE APPROVED.
UM, BUT OUTSIDE OF THAT, I THINK YOU'VE NAMED FROM MY RECOLLECTION AS WELL THAT PEOPLE THAT I THINK, YEAH, NO, I BELIEVE YOU.
YEAH, BUT YOU KNOW, ME, I'M A RESEARCHER.
UH, SO YEAH, NO, I THINK IT WOULD PROBABLY BE THAT SAME, BUT, UH, UH, YOU KNOW, I THINK THAT'S IMPORTANT TO RECOGNIZE THOSE, YOU KNOW, THEY MAY NO LONGER STILL BE ON A DIET, BUT REALLY, UH, HELP GET THIS PROCESS START.
AND I KNOW I'VE MENTIONED THIS TO MY COLLEAGUES IN THE PAST, YOU KNOW, THAT'S, THAT'S HOW THESE THINGS GO.
YOU'RE GOING TO BE A PART OF THINGS AT THE BEGINNING OF YOUR TERM THAT YOU HAD NO, NO, NOTHING TO DO WITH THE STARTING AND THAT, BUT YOU'RE THERE AT THE RIBBON CUTTING AND YOU'RE PARTICIPATING ON THAT, BUT THEN HOPEFULLY OVER THE COURSE OF YOUR TERM, YOU WILL BE A PART OF SOME THINGS AND YOU'LL SEE SOME THINGS COME TO FRUITION AND THEN THERE'LL BE SOME THINGS THAT YOU START AND YOU WON'T SEE, UH, TO THE END.
UM, BUT, UH, YOU KNOW, THAT, THAT WAS PLAQUES ARE A WAY OF STILL RECOGNIZING ALL THE EFFORT THAT IS PUT ON, PUT INTO THAT.
AND IT JUST KIND OF SHOWS WHEN YOU SEE ALL THOSE NAMES, HOW MANY PARTIES AND PEOPLE HAD TO COME TOGETHER TO MAKE THESE PROJECTS HAPPEN.
AND I THINK THAT'S JUST A REALLY IMPORTANT REMINDER AND IT'S, IT'S REALLY COOL.
I ALWAYS STOP AND LOOK AT THOSE BLACKS, UH, WHEREVER THEY ARE AROUND THE CITY AND JUST KIND OF SMILE BECAUSE A LOT OF THOSE NAMES, I KNOW, YOU KNOW, UH, MY MAN DAN, UH, THE LATE DAN RYAN, YOU KNOW, BEING ON THE BUILDING AND IT JUST A HOST OF OTHER CHARACTERS THAT ARE, AND FOLKS THAT HAVE DONE SOME GREAT THINGS FOR OUR CITY.
AND SO I THINK THIS IS A, IT'S A GOOD IDEA.
WELL, IF EVERYONE'S OKAY WITH IT, THE THOUGHT WOULD BE, THIS WOULD COME BACK TO COUNCIL ONE MORE TIME WITH THE, WITH, YOU KNOW, WITH FULL DETAILS.
UH, SOME DRAWINGS, MAYBE SOME OPTIONS FOR US TO DECIDE, BUT YEAH, THE, WHEN IT COMES BACK, IT'LL BE, AT LEAST IT'D BE MY HOPE THAT WE'D BE ABLE TO MAKE THAT TERMINATION THEN AND THERE AND THEN, AND THEN MOVE ON.
SO I'M NOT SURE EXACTLY WHEN THAT WILL HAPPEN.
UH, THAT'LL BE SOMETHING, UH, FOR SAMANTHA TO, I THINK, WORK ON AS WELL.
UM, SO THE NEXT PROPOSAL WILL PROBABLY COME FROM HER OR FROM HER AND ANDY COLEMAN AND ASSOCIATES.
SO CUSTOMER TO ME IS IF WE, UH, DON'T DECIDE TO GO WITH THE GREAT IDEA OF A BELL, WE CAN ALWAYS BRING BACK THE OLD TORNADO HORN, A WARNING HORN WE'VE HAD BACK IN THE DAY AND HAVE THOSE KIDS RING THAT THING.
SO MS. FLORES KILLED SPEAKING OF YOUR DECIBELS AND ALL THAT, YOU COULD HEAR THAT THING ALL THE WAY DOWN, PAST DAIRY QUEEN ALL THE WAY DOWN, ONE 50 BACK IN THE DAY, YOU WERE REALLY TIRED.
WE WENT OFF AND WE HIT THAT TORNADO HERE IN CANADA.
WE THOUGHT IT WAS JUST NOTHING IN THE PLAYGROUND.
AND THE CONNIE BROUGHT US BACK IN YET.
AND IT WAS A REAL, IT USED TO IT, THEY ONE OFF AT NOON.
THAT'S JUST ANOTHER IDEA OF A HISTORY OF KYLE AS WELL TOO.
I TH I THINK THAT BELL TRAUMATIZED AS A KID WHEN WE'RE IN OUR CLASSROOMS. UH, ANY OTHER DISCUSSION, UM, I'D LIKE TO, UH, MAKE A MOTION TO GIVE STAFF DIRECTION, TO BRING BACK A PROPOSAL, UH, CONSISTENT WITH WHAT HAS BEEN DISCUSSED HERE TONIGHT.
SO MOVED BY THE MAYOR, SECONDED BY MAYOR PRO TEM.
IS THERE A DISCUSSION ON THAT MOTION? ALL IN FAVOR, SAY AYE.
