          [4. George Williford; Present information regarding the 2019 Bond Program.]
ITEM FOUR, UH, WE HAVE WITH US GEORGE WILLIFORD OF HILLTOP SECURITIES TO PRESENT INFORMATION REGARDING THE 2019 BOND PROGRAM. 
          THANK YOU JORDAN. 
          GOTCHA. 
          AND, UH, MEMBERS OF THE COURT, UH, FOR THE RECORD, GEORGE WILLIFORD WITH HILLTOP SECURITIES WERE FINANCIAL ADVISOR TO THE COUNTY. 
          AND, UH, THE INFORMATION THAT HAD JUST HANDED OUT IS, UH, REALLY SUMMARY WITH REGARD TO THE VOTED AUTHORIZATION THAT YOU RECEIVED AT THE NOVEMBER ELECTION. 
          AND I WOULD LIKE TO CONGRATULATE THE COUNTY FOR PASSAGE OF THAT. 
          AND UH, AS YOU SEE WHICH YOU'RE FULLY AWARE, AT THE TOP OF THAT HUNDRED 54.1 MILLION, 104.1 WAS FOR, UH, TRANSPORTATION OR ROAD RELATED PROJECTS. 
          AND THE REMAINING 50 MILLION WAS FOR, UH, VARIOUS COUNTY FACILITIES, UH, UH, CONSTRUCTION AND IMPROVEMENT. 
          WHILE WE'VE DONE WORKING WITH, UH, JUDGE RICHARDS, UH, IS, UH, DISCUSS, UH, TIMING. 
          AND I KNOW THERE'S BEEN DISCUSSION WITH THE COMMISSIONERS AS WELL AS MR POLLSTER AND ALL WITH RESPECT TO THE ROADS AND SO, SO ON AND BASED ON THAT, AND THIS REALLY DOESN'T VARY TOO MUCH FROM WHAT WAS SHOWN, UH, FROM THE OUTSET, UH, BUT, UH, W DID DETERMINE THAT, UH, WHAT REALLY MAKES SENSE IS WITH RESPECT TO THIS, UH, 2020 ISSUANCE, THE UPCOMING ISSUE, UH, TO PLAN ON SELLING A TOTAL OF $60 MILLION OR 60 MILLION OF PROCEEDS FOR THE COUNTY. 
          AND OF THAT, THAT 40 MILLION WOULD BE FOR ROAD PURPOSES AND THE REMAINING 20 WOULD BE FOR FACILITIES. 
          AND THEN WHAT YOU SEE SUMMARIZED IS AT THIS POINT, 
          [00:10:01]
KIND OF AN ANTICIPATED SCHEDULE GOING FORWARD. 
          UH, THE, UH, WHAT WAS PLAN WHEN THE LEXAN WAS BEING DISCUSSED AND SO ON. 
          LIKE I SAID, TIED VERY CLOSELY TO THIS, UH, PRESUMED KIND OF EVERY OTHER YEAR ISSUANCE, UH, 2020, 20, 22, FOUR, SIX AND EIGHT ALL THE WAY OUT THROUGH 2028. 
          IN THIS CASE, WE'VE ACTUALLY INTERJECTED A POTENTIAL 20 MILLION NEXT YEAR, UH, FOR OUR FACILITIES. 
          UH, BECAUSE IN DISCUSSION, UH, JUDGE RICHARDS FELT LIKE PROBABLY WOULDN'T BE SPENDING ENOUGH THIS FIRST YEAR TO JUSTIFY OVER SELLING, LET'S SAY, AND, AND, AND PAY AN INTEREST ON, UH, PROCEEDS THAT WEREN'T NEEDED FOR, YOU KNOW, UH, A YEAR OR SO OUT. 
          AND SO THAT YOU'LL SEE THAT 20 MILLION THERE AND AFTER IT TIES VERY CLOSELY, LIKE I SAID, UH, 18 AND A HALF MILLION AND LITERALLY EVERY OTHER YEAR FOR ROAD PURPOSES. 
          AND THEN YOU DO HAVE PLANNED SHOWN IN 2022 THAT FINAL 10 MILLION FOR FACILITIES, UH, AS IT'S POINTED OUT, UH, BELOW THAT. 
          AND AS WE DISCUSSED FROM THE OUTSET, UH, TIMING STRUCTURE, SIZE OF ISSUANCE CAN BE ADJUSTED THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE PROGRAM BASED ON, UH, PROPERTY VALUES, EITHER GROWING FASTER, SLOWER OR WHATEVER, OR JUST, UH, THE PACE OF CONSTRUCTION AND FACILITIES AND SO ON. 
          UH, MAYBE, UH, JUSTIFYING IT, UH, BEING, UM, ISSUING A LITTLE BIT MORE, A LITTLE BIT LESS OR SLOWER, UH, OR WHATEVER. 
          UH, AS IT SHOWS ON THE BOTTOM, UH, WE ARE PLANNING, UH, FEBRUARY 25TH WOULD BE THE DATE THAT THE COMMISSIONER'S COURT WOULDN'T HAVE APPROVED SALE AND AUTHORIZE ISSUANCE. 
          AND I'VE ATTACHED TO CALENDAR, UH, BEHIND THAT. 
          AND IF YOU'LL LOOK AT THAT, YOU'LL SEE THAT, UH, NEXT WEEK, UH, OR IF NOT EARLY SAY, UH, THE FOLLOWING WEEK, WE'D HOPE TO HAVE DISCUSSIONS WITH THE WRITING AGENCIES. 
          WE'LL BE, UH, WORKING WITH THE TWO OF THE WRITING AGENCIES, UH, UH, AND WE'VE BEEN WORKING WITH, UH, JUDGE RICHARDSON, JERRY TO, UH, GET INFORMATION AS WELL AS KAREN ON, ON THE FINANCES AND TAX BASE AND THIS NET PUT TOGETHER PRESENTATION, UH, FOR THAT, UH, HOPE TO HAVE THOSE MID MONTH SHOWS VALENTINE'S DAY, SO THAT WOULD BE APPROPRIATE. 
          UH, AND THEN THAT WILL GIVE US TIME FOR THOSE WRITINGS TO BE KNOWN IN PUBLIC, UH, FOR THE UNDERWRITERS TO BE DEALING WITH POTENTIAL OR PROSPECTIVE PURCHASERS. 
          IN THIS CASE, WE'D PROVIDED INFORMATION, UH, AND JUDGE RICHARDS HAD RECOMMENDED, UH, CITY GROUP AS SENIOR MANAGER, RAYMOND JAMES, AND THEN A F H N A, B, THREE UNDERWRITING, UH, FIRMS THAT WOULD, UH, COMPRISE THE UNDERWRITING SYNDICATE. 
          AND SO THERE'LL BE WORKING BEFOREHAND, BUT THEN YOU'LL SEE A, AS FAR AS FROM TIMING AND SO ON, IT'S PLANNED THAT ON A MONDAY, FEBRUARY 24TH, WOULD ACTUALLY HAVE THE FORMAL PRICING WHERE WE WOULD HAVE ORDERED PERIOD AND, AND, UH, INVESTORS THAT THEY HAD BEEN WORKING WITH AND SO ON. 
          UH, THEY'D BE TRYING TO GET COMMITMENTS AND SECURE AND NAIL DOWN THE ORDERS FOR THE BONDS, UH, GET THE RIGHTS, UH, LOCKED IN AND SO ON, SO THAT THE NEXT DAY, UH, THE COMMISSIONER'S COURT COULD CONSIDER EVERYTHING FOR APPROVAL. 
          AND JUST AS A REMINDER, UH, IN THE STATE OF TEXAS, UH, COUNTIES CAN ONLY AUTHORIZE ISSUANCE OF DEBT AT REGULARLY ESTABLISHED, UH, UH, COMMISSIONERS, COURTS MEETINGS. 
          THEN ALSO, YOU HAVE TO HAVE MORE OR LESS, A SUPER MAJORITY QUORUM OF FOUR OF THE FIVE, UH, MEMBERS OF THE COURT HAVE TO BE PRESENT. 
          SO, UH, WE WERE KIND OF LOCKED IN. 
          UH, UH, YOU KNOW, YOU ALL MEET TWICE A MONTH AND IT WAS CONCLUDED THAT FEBRUARY 25TH REALLY FIT EVERYTHING WELL. 
          UH, AND THEN, UH, THE COUNTY WOULD HAVE THE FUNDS FROM THE FIRST ISSUANCE, UH, BY THE END OF MARCH. 
          UH, AND OF COURSE, THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT YOU CAN'T BE MAKING COMMITMENT SPENDING. 
          UH, JUST TO LET YOU KNOW, UH, UNDER THE TAX CODE, UH, YOU CAN, UH, ISSUE, UH, OR SPEND MONEY BEFORE EVEN, UH, THE, THE DEBT PROCEEDS ARE IN HAND. 
          UH, TYPICALLY IF IT'S HARD AND COST INCURRED, UH, WOULD RECOMMEND BOND COUNSEL PROVIDE A REIMBURSEMENT RESOLUTION. 
          BUT SO LONG AS YOU'RE JUST DEALING, UH, WITH ARCHITECTS, ENGINEERING AND, UH, DESIGN RELATED FEES THAT ARE CONSIDERED SOFT COSTS, YOU DON'T NECESSARILY EVEN HAVE TO HAVE THAT BY, BY MARCH, YOU'LL HAVE DEBT PROCEEDS IN HAND TO BE SPENDING DIRECTLY AND SO ON. 
          SO, AND JUST, UH, CAUSE I ANTICIPATED THIS FACT JERRY HIT ME UP WITH IT AS SOON AS I WALKED IN THE DOOR. 
          WHAT'S INTEREST RATE GOING TO BE? AND I DON'T KNOW. 
          UH, BUT WHAT I CAN TELL YOU IS, AND, AND IT'S GOTTEN REDUNDANT AND WORK, PEOPLE I'VE TALKED TO WERE HISTORICAL LOW RIGHTS AND SO ON AND SO ON. 
          WE ARE LITERALLY AT THE LOWEST TAX EXEMPT RATES HISTORICALLY BECAUSE WE 
          [00:15:01]
HAD A SALE LAST NIGHT, CITY OF RICHARDSON AND THE BOND BUYER INDEX. 
          THAT IS KIND OF OUR, UH, MONITOR OR GO BY LAST WEEK, UH, ACTUALLY WASN'T AN ALL TIME LOW, SO, UH, HOPEFULLY WITHIN THE NEXT MONTH SITUATIONAL STAY, UH, FAVORABLE LIKE THAT. 
          AND IT WASN'T THAT NUMBER GEORGE. 
          WELL THE INDEX WAS A TWO 54. 
          UH, AND I WAS TELLING JERRY WE'VE MODELED THIS FIRST ISSUANCE AT A 3.75. 
          AND SO I WOULD HOPE DEFINITELY, YOU KNOW, WE'D BE IN THE LOW THREES, UH, UH, WE'LL JUST SAY, UH, BUT THERE'S SO MANY THINGS THAT AFFECT, UH, THAT, UH, NOT JUST DOMESTICALLY. 
          YOU KNOW, RIGHT NOW IT'S THE, WHAT'S GOING ON IN CHINA KINDA UH, PRODUCING FEARS. 
          YOU SAW THE STOCK MARKET PLUMMET AND THAT MEANT WHILE EVERYBODY FLED THE TREASURIES. 
          AND SO INTEREST RATES CAME DOWN AS WELL, BUT IT IS A GOOD TIME TO, UH, UH, FINANCE AND FAVORABLE. 
          BUT WITH THAT, I'D BE GLAD TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS AND OTHERWISE WE WILL WORK WITH A JUDGE, WITH KAREN AND SO ON TO, UH, PROCEED DOWN THE PATH THAT, UH, COME BACK, BE READY TO COME BACK ON THE 25TH. 
          NOW THE WORK BEGINS. 
          GENTLEMEN, ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR GEORGE? I JUST THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT, UH, BECAUSE I, I GET A LOT OF QUESTIONS ABOUT THE BOND THAT, THAT THE PROCESS IS MOVING FORWARD, THAT WE'RE DOTTING ALL THE I'S, CROSSING ALL THE T'S AND UH, THAT FUNDS ARE NOT YET IN HAND. 
          SO THAT'S WHY YOU DON'T SEE DIRT MOVING OUT THERE YET. 
          AND IT'S RAINING ON TOP OF THAT. 
          UM, I'D LIKE TO THANK A COUPLE OF PEOPLE ARE SOME FOLKS THAT HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN, THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF WORK THAT WENT INTO THIS. 
          OF COURSE. 
          UH, UH, UH, GEORGE WOLFORD HAS REALLY LED THIS WHOLE THING. 
          UH, ALL THE COMMISSIONERS, UH, SPENT TIME TRYING TO PRIORITIZE AND, AND FIGURE OUT WHEN THEY'RE GONNA NEED THE FUNDS AND WHEN THEY'RE GOING TO BE ABLE TO EXPEND THOSE FUNDS FOR ROADS. 
          UM, WE HAD LOTS OF PARTICIPATION FROM, UH, CITIES, UH, IN THE COUNTY. 
          WE NEEDED TO PROVIDE INFORMATION TO THE RATING AGENCIES ABOUT GROWTH AND, YOU KNOW, HOW MANY BUILDINGS WERE BUILT AND ALL THAT SORT OF THING. 
          JERRY DID A LOT OF WORK ON THAT. 
          UM, AND, UH, I KNOW KAREN PROVIDED INPUT, SO, UH, JUST, YOU KNOW, IT'S A LOT OF WORK TO GET JUST TO THIS POINT. 
          BUT NOW WE NOW WE ACTUALLY GET TO START, UH, BUILDING ROADS AND WORKING ON BUILDING BUILDINGS. 
          SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 
          APPRECIATE IT.

          [11. Pam Corder; Discuss/Consider accepting the donation from the Friends of the Kaufman County Historical Commission in the amount of $9,872.64.]
ITEM 11, UH, THIS WAS THAT COMMENT OR ARE YOU JUST OKAY. 
          UH, ADAM TOLD HIM, UH, THIS IS ACTUALLY, UH, PAM'S GOT THIS ITEM TO CARRY, BUT THERE'S LITTLE COMMENTARY THAT I WOULD LIKE TO READ ABOUT THIS FIRST. 
          UH, THE FRIENDS OF THE KAUFFMAN COUNTY HISTORICAL COMMISSION, UH, WAS ESTABLISHED IN 1997 BY GENE AND ABLES FLATT WHO WAS CHAIRMAN OF THE HISTORICAL COMMISSION AT THAT TIME IN HORSE FLAT. 
          UM, THERE WERE EIGHT ORIGINAL BOARD MEMBERS. 
          THREE OF THOSE BOARD MEMBERS STILL SERVE ON THE BOARD AND TWO ARE ACTIVE LIFETIME MEMBERS. 
          UH, FRIENDS, ORIGINAL BOARD MEMBERS. 
          JEAN ENABLES FLAT BETTY BROWN. 
          JAMIE LEE WILL CURRENTLY SERVE AS AMERITAS MEMBERS OF THE COUNTY HISTORICAL COMMISSION. 
          THAT'S UH, THAT'S QUITE A HISTORY FOR OVER 20 YEARS, THE FRIENDS OF THE KAUFFMAN COUNTY HISTORICAL COMMISSION MEMBERS AND VOLUNTEERS WORKED WITH THE COUNTY HISTORICAL COMMISSION TO PROVIDE FUNDING AND SPONSORSHIP SUPPORT FOR THE PRESERVATION OF HIS FOR HISTORICAL PROJECTS. 
          IN 2012 THE KAUFMAN COUNTY POOR FARM WAS NAMED AS ONE OF TEXAS MOST ENDANGERED PLACES BY AN ORGANIZATION CALLED PRESERVATION. 
          TEXAS. 
          THE FRIENDS OF THE KAUFFMAN COUNTY HISTORICAL COMMISSION WOULD LIKE TO DESIGNATE A DONATION TO BE APPLIED TO THE FARM PROJECT. 
          [00:25:01]
IN EARLY 2018 THE FRIENDS BOARD OF DIRECTORS VOTED TO SUSPEND ACTIVITIES DUE TO A LACK OF MEMBERSHIP. 
          UH, AND THEY HAVE GENERALLY OFFERED A DONATION. 
          SO I'LL PASS IT OFF TO YOU, PAM, AND YOU CAN TALK ABOUT THE DONATION THAT THEY'RE OFFERING. 
          YES. 
          SO THE DONATION IS IN THE SUM OF $9,872 AND 64 CENTS. 
          AND IT HAS BEEN DONATED AND DESIGNATED FOR A PROJECT THAT WE ARE GOING TO BE DOING AT THE FARM AND THAT WE'LL BE PUTTING A FENCE BEHIND THE, UM, THE WALL AND TO START TO ENCLOSE THE FARM AREA ITSELF. 
          SO THAT'S WHERE THE MONEY WILL BE DESIGNATED TO. 
          SO THAT'S OUR PROJECT. 
          SO WE HAVE SOME OF THOSE. 
          WE HAVE A MEMBERS. 
          JAMIE, WHO'S WITH YOU, WHY DON'T Y'ALL COME UP? CAN WE COME UP AND TAKE A PICTURE? DO Y'ALL MIND? YOU'RE A LIFETIME MEMBER.

          CAN YOU GET IT ALL IN THERE? MY NAME'S A LITTLE BIT IN MY WAY. 
          I'LL TAKE IT. 
          THAT'S GREAT. 
          I'LL TALK TO YOU. 
          YOU'RE GRABBING FOR THAT  FOR YOU TO MAKE SURE YOU DON'T FLOAT AWAY WITH. 
          HEY RONNIE, IT LOOKS GOOD. 
          OKAY. 
          [12. Pam Corder; Discuss/Consider appointing Deborah Bonner and Vanessa Brooks to the Kaufman County Child Welfare Board.]

          ADAM 12. 
          DISCUSS, CONSIDER APPOINTING DEBORAH BONNER AND VANESSA BROOKS TO THE KAUFMAN COUNTY CHILD WELFARE BOARD. 
          YES. 
          SO WE ARE WORKING AT GROWING OUR WELFARE BOARD TO TAKE IN, UM, RESIDENTS FROM ALL OVER THE COUNTY. 
          AND SO I WOULD LIKE FOR YOU TO CONSIDER, UH, APPOINTING DEBORAH BONNER, WHICH IS, UM, OUR CIVIL ATTORNEY AND VANESSA BROOKS PRECINCT FOUR CONSTABLE TO OUR BOARD. 
          WE THINK THEY WILL BE GREAT ASSET TO OUR BOARD. 
          QUESTIONS. 
          PAM, HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE ON THE BOARD NOW? RIGHT NOW WE HAVE NINE FULL TIME MEMBERS, SO WE CAN'T HAVE ANY LESS THAN SEVEN AND NO MORE THAN 15. 
          WE DO HAVE ONE OTHER LADY THAT WE'LL BE LOOKING AT FROM THE TERRELL AREA AND UM, THE TERMS ARE FOR THREE YEARS. 
          SO THIS WILL, THIS WILL MOVE THE BOARD TO 11. 
          YES, YES. 
          AND THEY'RE DOING GREAT WORK. 
          SO, UH, IF THERE ARE NO QUESTIONS, IS THERE A MOTION TO APPOINT DEBRA BONNER, VANESSA BROOKS TO THE TOP AND COUNTY CHILD WELFARE BOARD? I'LL MAKE THAT MOTION. 
          WHERE THAT MOTION FROM COMMISSIONER PHILLIPS.

          [5. John Polster; Discuss/Consider approval of the Addition Funds due to Texas Department of Transportation for the SH 243/FM 2515 and SH 243/FM 2727 Intersections Improvements Projects in the amount of $466,099.25]
OKAY, WE'RE GOING TO GO BACK UP TO ITEM FIVE. 
          UH, WE HAVE WITH US JOHN POLLSTER DISCUSS FOR CONSIDERATION APPROVAL OF THE ADDITIONAL FUNDS DUE TO TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION FOR THE STATE HIGHWAY TWO 43 FM 25 15. 
          UH, INTERSECTION AND TWO 43 AND 27, 27 INTERSECTION IMPROVEMENTS. 
          THAT'S IN THE AMOUNT TOTAL AMOUNT FOR THAT WOULD BE 466,000 OH 99, 25. 
          GOOD MORNING MR POLLSTER. 
          I APOLOGIZE FOR MY 
          [00:30:01]
TARDINESS. 
          TRAFFIC WAS WE NEED TO GET YOU A HELICOPTER. 
          WELL MAYBE NOT NOW. 
          MAYBE NOT. 
          I USE Y'ALL CREW CREW THOUGH. 
          SO YEAH. 
          SO YEAH. 
          SO THIS IS A ADDITIONAL FUNDS AT THE AWARDING OF THE PROJECT TO A FRITSCHER CONSTRUCTION. 
          UH, THE LOW BID WAS 1.2 MILLION, UH, FOR THESE, BOTH OF THESE INTERSECTIONS AND TEXTED IS AWAITING THE TRANSMITTAL OR THE APPROVAL OF THESE FUNDS, UH, TO EXECUTE AND AWARD THE CONTRACT TO THAT FIRM. 
          SO MY RECOMMENDATION IS TO, UH, APPROVE THE ADDITIONAL PAYMENT TO THE STATE. 
          WELL, I WILL SAY THIS, THAT PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE EXCITED WHEN WE GET STARTED WORKING ON THIS THEN WHEN DID A LONG TIME, CAUSE THIS IS THE, IN WRAPPING UP THE OTHER BOND PROGRAM AND THEY WAITED ALL THIS TIME FOR THESE INTERSECTIONS AND IT'S A BIG SAFETY ISSUE AND I HEAR ABOUT IT EVERY COUPLE OF MONTHS. 
          SO I'M EXCITED TO JUST GOING TO HAPPEN. 
          SO, UH, WHAT'S THE TIMEFRAME ON COMPLETION FOR THAT? A WEEK I WAS IN THAT REPORT YOU SENT US, I KNOW THEY SAY 168 WORKING DAYS, BUT WHAT WE DO IS WE LOOK AT THE BID PACKAGE AND WORK THEY PUT IN FOR THEIR BARRICADES CAUSE THEY RENT THEM AND THEY THINK IT'S GOING TO TAKE THEM ABOUT EIGHT MONTHS FOR BOTH INTERSECTIONS. 
          SO MMM. 
          EIGHT MONTHS FROM WHENEVER WE START CAUSE WE HAVEN'T STARTED, THAT WON'T START UNTIL THEY GET THE TEXT. 
          I WON'T EXECUTE THE AGREEMENT UNTIL THEY GET THE REST OF OUR MONEY. 
          SO I'D LET TO MAKE A MOTION THAT THEY GET THE REST OF THEIR MONEY. 
          ALL RIGHT, WE HAVE A MOTION. 
          I'M GOING TO TAKE THAT AS A MOTION FOR APPROVAL FOR THE ADDITIONAL FUNDS AS BRIEFED. 
          THAT'S THE MOTION FROM COMMISSIONER HUNT. 
          IS THERE A SECOND? I'LL SECOND THAT SACRUM WITH COMMISSIONER PHILLIPS. 
          DISCUSSION. 
          THOSE IN FAVOR SIGNIFY BY SAYING AYE. 
          THOSE OPPOSED? NO, THAT MOTION CARRIES. 
          UH, 
          [6. John Polster; To Present/Accept Kaufman County Transportation Planning Report for January 2020.]
NEXT WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT THE TRANSPORTATION PLANNING REPORT. 
          JOHN'S GOING TO BRIEF US UP ON THAT. 
          THEY HAVE. 
          OKAY. 
          WE HAVE THAT JOHN, IT'S IN OUR PACKET. 
          I GOT IT. 
          I'LL PICK UP JOHN. 
          LET ME HAVE MY COMPUTER. 
          . 
          OKAY. 
          SO AS WE START AS USUAL, WE HAVE A PROJECT SHEET ON PAGE TWO THAT SHOWS THE FUNDING AMOUNTS IN THE, UH, 2013 PROGRAM THAT WE'RE, WE ARE EITHER PURSUING OR HAVE PURSUED AND THE TOTAL MATS OF THE LEVERAGE INVOLVED. 
          THE FIRST PROJECT ON PAGE THREE IS THE TWO 43 PROJECT WE JUST DISCUSSED. 
          AGAIN, THE PROJECT WAS, UH, AWARDED OR WILL BE AWARDED TO FRITSCHER CONSTRUCTION, 168 WORKING DAYS, EIGHT MONTHS OF BARRICADES. 
          AND UPON TRANSMIT ALL OF THE FUNDS, THE TEXTILE WILL EXECUTE THE AGREEMENT AND GIVE THEM NOTICE TO PROCEED AND THEN WE'LL START PROVIDING YOU A MONTHLY CONSTRUCTION REPORT. 
          IN OUR REPORT, UH, FM FIVE 48, PHASE ONE, UH, FROM 82, UH, WE, UH, WINDMILL FARMS, WE'VE GOT 60% PLANS, UH, THAT HAVE BEEN, UH, SUBMITTED TO TEXT THAT, UM, UH, AND THAT'S REASON THAT'S CRITICAL IS BECAUSE ONCE WE'RE AT 60% PLANS ADEQUATE, THEN THE UTILITY PROVIDERS, WHEN YOU CAN SEE THERE'S QUITE A FEW LISTED THERE. 
          WE'LL HAVE WHAT THEY NEED IN ORDER TO START DOING CONFLICTS ANALYSIS TO DETERMINE WHETHER THEY EITHER ARE OR AREN'T IN CONFLICT WITH THE PROJECT. 
          AND IF THEY ARE, START THE DESIGN WORK TO, TO RELOCATE SOME OF 60% PLANS ADEQUATE AS A CRITICAL MILESTONE. 
          AND AGAIN, THIS PROJECT IS FULLY FUNDED WITH CATEGORY TWO FUNDS. 
          SO WE'RE JUST AWAITING THE PLANS TO BE DONE UTILITIES AND RIGHT AWAY TO BE COMPLETED. 
          AND WE'RE ANTICIPATING THIS TO START ABOUT SEPTEMBER OF 22. 
          AND THE MAIN CRITICAL PATH ON THAT PROJECT IS THE LENGTH OF TIME FOR THE UTILITIES TO BE RELOCATED AND THEN AN ORDER IN FACE, UH, FROM WINDMILL FARMS NORTH TEXAS THAT AS I'M GOING TO PICK UP THE ENGINEERING ON THAT SECTION OF THE ROAD AND UH, WE ANTICIPATE HAVING THAT FIRM. 
          I'M GOING TO BE MEETING WITH TEXTILE LATER THIS 
          [00:35:01]
AFTERNOON TO GO OVER DIFFERENT ISSUES AND I'M ANTICIPATING GETTING, BEING ABLE TO COME BACK AT THE END OF THE MONTH. 
          I'LL LET YOU KNOW WHO THEY'VE, UH, YES SIR. 
          SO NEXT PAGE PLAYED SIX, UH, IN DECEMBER, I THINK IT WAS A JUDGE AND I WENT OUT AND MET WITH TEXTS THAT RELATED TO THE 2019 BOND PROGRAM. 
          AND AS A PART OF THAT CONVERSATION, UM, WE WERE ASKED TO SEND TWO LETTERS TO THE STATE COMMITTEE VERBALLY OR IN WRITING, COMMITTING WHAT WE'VE ALREADY COMMITTED ON A BOND PACKAGE. 
          ONE OF THEM WAS THE, UH, THE REMAINING MILLION DOLLARS FOR THE INTERSECTION AT 82 OH FIVE AND ONE 48. 
          AND WE WERE NOTIFIED, YOU KNOW, THE DAY THAT BASED ON THAT LETTER, THEY WERE ABLE TO PUT THE REMAINING EIGHT POINT $9 MILLION TOWARDS THIS PROJECT. 
          SO IT IS, UH, FUNDED NOW AT A NINE POINT $5 MILLION, A MILLION OF IT COUNTY, 8.9 MILLION CATEGORY FIVE FUNDS. 
          UH, AND WE ARE WORKING ON 95% PLANS ON THIS PROJECT AND THE PROJECT WILL BE WHAT WE CALL READY TO LET JULY OF 2021. 
          THE MAIN CRITICAL PATH ITEM THERE IS WE MINIMIZE RIGHT AWAY TAKE ON THIS JOB. 
          BUT THERE ARE SIGNIFICANT UTILITY ISSUES IN THIS CORRIDOR THAT HAVE TO BE RELOCATED. 
          AND WITH THE AMOUNT OF COMMERCIAL PROPERTY ADJACENT TO THE FACILITY, IT MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT FOR THE UTILITY PROVIDERS TO TO DO THAT. 
          AND THE CRITICAL ITEM HERE IS TERRELL HAS THE LARGEST OF THE UTILITIES IN THAT CORRIDOR AND TEXTS THAT'S KIND OF HOLDING EVERYBODY OFF UNTIL TERRIBLE. 
          COULDN'T GET THEIR STUFF MOVED CAUSE THAT'S A, THAT'S A BIG MARK WHEN THEY MOVE. 
          SO FUNDED WORKING THROUGH THE PROCESS. 
          SO THAT'S ANOTHER $8 MILLION THAT WE CAN ADD TO YOUR LIST GOING FORWARD. 
          AND UH, IT'S A JULY 21 RENEWAL THAT DAY. 
          OKAY. 
          A ONE 75 SOUTH FRONTAGE ROADS. 
          AGAIN, THIS IS A PROJECT THAT, UH, IS UH, AUGUST OF THE SUMMER WE'LL BE READY TO LET, WHICH MEANS THE RIDER WILL BE ACQUIRED. 
          UTILITIES RELOCATED. 
          UH, IT'S FUNDED WITH CATEGORY TWO FUNDS, WHICH ARE FEDERAL FUNDS FROM THE NPO. 
          AND, UM, WE ARE ANTICIPATING ONCE THE PROJECT UTILITIES ARE RELOCATED, WE'LL BE ABLE TO COME AND GIVE YOU A SPECIFIC DATE FOR THE UM, THE LET DATE CAUSE WE DON'T WANT TO DO IT IN AUGUST BECAUSE AUGUST IS THE LAST MONTH OF THE FISCAL YEAR. 
          AND THAT'S USUALLY WHERE ALL THE PROJECTS THAT DID MAKE IT FOR THAT FISCAL YEAR END UP AND PRICES ARE USUALLY HIGHER. 
          SO WE'LL, WE'LL BACK IT UP OR WE'LL MOVE FORWARD OF AUGUST SO IT WON'T BE AUGUST. 
          THAT'LL BE READY IN AUGUST. 
          AH, YOU ONE 48 BYPASS IS ANOTHER PROJECT THAT UH, THE JUDGE TRANSMITTED A LETTER TO TEXT THAT VERBAL, UH, WRITING IN WRITING YOUR COMMITMENT. 
          THAT WAS IN THE 2019 BOND PACKAGE AND WE SHOULD KNOW THIS SUMMER, UH, CAUSE THEY WANT TO LET THIS PROJECT AND THE PREVIOUS PROJECT TOGETHER. 
          UH, AND THIS ONE 48 BYPASSES SCHEDULE, THEY ARE EXPEDITING IT SO THEY CAN DO THAT. 
          SO WE FEEL LIKE BY THE SUMMER WE'LL, OUR COMMITMENT OF $5 MILLION FROM THE 2019 BOND PROGRAM WILL RESULT IN THE REMAINING 23 MILLION BEING ALLOCATED FOR THIS PROJECT. 
          AND WE'LL BE ABLE TO MEET THAT JULY, 2021 LEAD DATE. 
          SO WE SHOULD HAVE SOME MORE GOOD NEWS FOR YOU. 
          UH, BY SUMMER ON THIS PROJECT, YOU ONE 48, UH, WE'LL JUST GO FLIP OVER TO THE CONSTRUCTION REPORT. 
          BASICALLY THEY'VE GOT A, AND BANG MAN WORKED. 
          THEY'RE DONE FOR THE ENTIRE CORRIDOR. 
          THEY'RE DOING A LOT OF THE SILK COAT AND THERE'S DAILY FLAGGING OPERATIONS THAT IMPACT TRAFFIC. 
          SO JUST WHEN YOU'RE IN THAT CORRIDOR B WHERE YOU HAVE PEOPLE WITH FLAGS, YOU'RE 34, SECTION ONE AND TWO, I CAN THE CONSTRUCTION REPORTS ON PAGE 12, THEY'RE WORKING ON DRIVEWAY CULVERTS, UH, EXCAVATING THE NEW DITCH LINE ON THE WEST SIDE. 
          UH, AND THERE ARE DETOURS THROUGHOUT THE CORRIDOR AND THEY WILL CONTINUE FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE. 
          UM, AS THEY PREPARE FOR THE CORRECTING SOME OF THE ASPHALT ISSUES STRAPPING ALONG THE BUSINESS. 
          34 SECTION AND THEN REINSTATING AND INSTALLING SOME OF THE TRAFFIC SIGNS. 
          SO 
          [00:40:01]
JUNE 20TH IS GOOD CON CONTRACTUAL COMPLETION DATE. 
          I THINK THAT THEY'RE ON TRACK FOR THAT AND WE'LL KEEP YOU POSTED ON A MONTHLY BASIS. 
          BUT THERE'S WORK BEING DONE. 
          ONE 48 NORTH PROJECT. 
          THIS IS THE PROJECT WHERE WE'RE PARTNERING WITH, UH, TERRELL. 
          THEY'RE MANAGING THE PROJECT. 
          UM, THEY'RE CURRENTLY WORKING ON THE INLETS ELIMINATION POLES, UH, AND THEN, UH, OFFER HAD BEEN BANK MEN AND WE'RE LOOKING AT A CONSTRUCTION COMPLETION OF AUGUST OF THIS YEAR. 
          SO THE GOOD NEWS IS, IS ONCE THIS PROJECT IS COMPLETED, IT'S OUR PARTNERSHIP WITH TERRELL WAS A PART OF THEIR PASS THROUGH TOLLING AND THEY'LL START, ONCE THEY GET CERTIFIED BY THE STATE BILL START REIMBURSING US COMMENSURATE WITH OUR ICA FUNDS BACK TO US OVER OVER 10 YEAR PERIOD. 
          OKAY. 
          1641. 
          THIS IS A PROJECT WHERE WE PICKED UP LTR TO DO THE WORK AND THE SCHEMATIC IS WE RECEIVED 95% COMMENTS FROM TEXT THAT AND UH, WE'VE HAD OUR MEETING ON THE 16TH AND WE SHOULD HAVE THOSE BACK BY THE END OF THE, OF, OF JANUARY, WHICH WILL ENSURE THAT WE HAVE THE ABILITY TO MEET THE AUGUST, 2020 ENVIRONMENTAL CLEARANCE, WHICH WILL THEN START THE CLOCK ON THE RIGHTAWAY AND UTILITY RELOCATIONS. 
           OKAY. 
          34 ADVANCED PLANNING. 
          THIS IS ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I'M GOING TO TALK TO THEM ABOUT TODAY. 
          UM, THEY HAVE, UH, RPS ON THE, ON CONTRACT DOING THE WORK. 
          I'M NOT REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THEIR, THEIR WORK PRODUCTIVITY. 
          AND SO WE'RE GOING TO DO A LOT OF FIREARM TODAY AND THEN I'LL BE ABLE TO GIVE YOU MORE INFORMATION AS TO SOMETHING OTHER THAN WINTER OF 2020 MEETING THAT THEY GAVE ME. 
          SO WILL RATTLE THEIR CAGE. 
          I'VE BEEN ON THAT ONE TWO OH FIVE SOUTH. 
          THERE ARE A HUNDRED PARCELS IN THE KAUFMAN COUNTY SECTION 12 OR AN APPRAISAL 88 OR IN NEGOTIATIONS AND THEY'RE ROUGHLY 104 IN THE SOUTHERN SECTION AND THEY'RE PRETTY MUCH JUST AN APPRAISAL THERE. 
          WE ARE EXPECTING THE P S AND E FOR THE COFFIN SECTION TO BEGIN IN MARCH OF 2020 AND AGAIN, THIS IS ONE OF THOSE PROJECTS THAT WE HAVE NO MONEY IN IT. 
          AND THE REASON WE DON'T HAVE ANY MONEY IN IT IS BECAUSE IT'S A PRIORITY TO TEXT THAT IN OUR JOB IS JUST TO MAKE SURE WE STAY OUT OF THEIR WAY AND ENCOURAGE THEM TO MEET THEIR OWN SCHEDULE. 
          BUT WHAT SHOULD BE ABLE TO GIVE YOU A BETTER FEEL FOR THAT? ONCE WE, UM, OKAY. 
          SEE WHO THEY GOT ON CONTRACT TO DO CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS. 
          THE BIGGEST RIDEAWAY ACQUISITION THING THAT WE SEEN ISN'T IT? YEAH, SURE. 
          I MEAN I CAN'T REMEMBER. 
          YEAH, I MEAN, YEAH, NOT THAT MANY, BUT IT WASN'T NO ONE A HUNDRED. 
          I MEAN Y'ALL GOING TO GET ME TO START REMEMBERING WHAT I SAY. 
          I'M GOING TO HAVE TO WRITE IT DOWN NOW. 
          WE WENT, WENT YOU DID? YEAH. 
          IT WAS A GOOD CHANCE. 
          IT WOULDN'T BE ACCURATE. 
          YOU CAN STRIKE THAT FROM THE RECORD AND THAT. 
          OKAY. 
          A 25 DRONES. 
          THIS IS A PROJECT THAT WE ARE ESSENTIALLY UH, WORKING WITH TEXTS OUT ON THE, ON THE ENVIRONMENTAL CLEARANCE THAT'S, WHICH IS APRIL, 2020. 
          THEY'VE GIVEN US A SCHEMATIC OF A 20, AND THEY'VE ASKED US TO TELL US WHERE WE THINK THE BEST PLACE FOR THEM TO START IS CAUSE THEY'RE NOT GOING TO DO ALL OF THE FURNITURE ROADS AT ONCE. 
          THEY'RE GOING TO DO ON WHERE THE DEVELOPMENT IN THE COMMUNITIES ASKED FOR. 
          SO WE ARE IN CONVERSATIONS WITH TEXTS THAT ABOUT THAT. 
          UH, WE ARE MEETING WITH THE JURISDICTIONS ALONG THE CORRIDOR TO GET THEIR IDEAS AND FEELINGS ON WHAT THINK THE FUTURE IS IN THE NEAR TERM FOR THE FURNITURE ROADS. 
          AND WE WILL WANT TO, AS IT GETS CLOSER, WE WILL CONVEY THOSE THOUGHTS TO TEXTILE. 
          AND THEN YOU'RE A U S 80 WIDENING. 
          THE, UH, ENVIRONMENTAL CLEARANCE IS SCHEDULED FOR MARCH OF 2020. 
          AGAIN, THIS IS A PROJECT THAT WE DON'T HAVE FUNDING IN, BUT WE SAY WE MONITOR BECAUSE IT'S IMPORTANT TO US. 
          IT'S FUNDED, FULLY FUNDED. 
          AND SO THE READY TO LET 
          [00:45:01]
IS JUNE OF 22 BECAUSE THERE ARE, UH, PARCELS THAT ARE GOING TO HAVE TO BE ACQUIRED AFTER THE ENVIRONMENTAL CLEARANCE. 
          AND AGAIN, THERE ARE LARGE TRACKS AND IN THIS PARTICULAR CASE IT SAYS THERE'S ONLY 15 PARCELS. 
          SO NOT, NOT VERY MANY UTILITIES WOULD PROBABLY BE THE CRITICAL PATH ITEM ON THAT PROJECT. 
          AND I BELIEVE THAT'S ALL I HAVE FOR YOU FOR THE, UH, 2013 BOND PROGRAM. 
          AND SINCE THIS DOESN'T SAY WHICH REPORT, UH, GOING FORWARD YOU'LL HAVE ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE REPORTS TO LOOK IDENTICAL TO THIS, ALTHOUGH WE'LL FIND SOME WAY MAKING IT LOOK A LITTLE DIFFERENT ON THE COVER FOR YOUR 2019 PROJECTS. 
          SO YOU'LL HAVE TWO REPORTS CAUSE IF WE GET TOO MUCH INVOLVED THERE'LL BE LIKE A BOOK. 
          SO WE WANT TO KEEP THEM SEPARATE SO WE'LL START REPORTING TO YOU MONTHLY ON THAT AS, AS IT, AS IT FULLY BEGINS. 
          UH, WE'RE WORKING AND WE'RE WORKING ON A MAP THAT WOULD SHOW, UH, ALL THE ROAD PROJECTS. 
          IT WAS SHOW BOND PROJECTS, YOU KNOW, 13 AND 19, AND WOULD ALSO SHOWED TEXDOT PROJECTS BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE INTERESTED, YOU KNOW, SOMETHING WE'D PUT ON OUR WEBSITE SO THEY CAN DEAN HIS THING ON ME. 
          I KNOW HE IS. 
          YEAH. 
          GOOD JOB. 
          I HOPE HE DOESN'T HURT YOUR FEELINGS JOHN. 
          I DON'T HAVE, I KNOW YOU DON'T. 
          THAT'S WHY I'M NOT WORRIED. 
          AND I AM, WE ALL HAVE LISA'S PHONE NUMBER, SO, OKAY. 
          THAT I CAN FEEL, YEAH, BE AWARE. 
          ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR MICHIGAN POLLSTER? ALL THE STUFF GOING ON. 
          YES SIR. 
          I'M GOING TO TAKE THAT AS A REALLY THOROUGH REPORT. 
          THAT'S WHY YOU DON'T HAVE ANY QUESTIONS. 
          WE JUST DON'T WANT TO BASH YOU UP HERE RIGHT NOW. 
          ALRIGHT. 
          ITEM 13, UH, DISCUSS, CONSIDER EXIT A REGULAR MEETING AND ENTER INTO A PUBLIC HEARING. 
          IS THERE A MOTION TO ENTER INTO A EXCEPT WE'RE GOING TO ACCEPT JOHN'S REPORT? I DON'T KNOW.

          THANK YOU KAREN. 
          UH, I DON'T KNOW WHY WE, I GUESS WE, WE DON'T HAVE TO ACCEPT THEIR REPORT, BUT IT'S ONLY A GENDER LIKE THAT. 
          IS THERE A MOTION TO ACCEPT MR POLLSTER'S REPORT? I MIGHT GET EMOTIONAL. 
          COMMISSIONER PHILLIPS.

          ITEM 
          [19. Chelsea Endicott; Discuss/Consider motion to approve replat of Lot 20 of Meadow Ranch Estates Phase II.]
19, ITEM 19 IS DISCUSSING, CONSIDER A MOTION TO APPROVE REPLAT OF LOT 20 OF MEADOW RANCH ESTATE PHASE TWO. 
          AND WE HAVE THREE FOLKS WITH US THIS MORNING. 
          THEY WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ABOUT THIS. 
          AND UH, THE FIRST ONE IS MS. SCOTT AND IF YOU'D COME AND BEND THAT MICROPHONE DOWN AND TELL US WHO YOU ARE AND WHERE YOU LIVE. 
          I AM TAMRA SCOTT. 
          I SPOKE ON THE LAST MEETING ABOUT THIS. 
          I LIVE IN MEADOW RANCH ESTATES. 
          UM, I REALIZED AFTER THE LAST MEETING YOU WEREN'T JUST WANTING TO HEAR NEIGHBORS, SO WE DON'T WANT THIS. 
          YOU WANTED SOMETHING MORE. 
          SO TWO WEEKS WASN'T ENOUGH FOR ME TO DO MY HOMEWORK, BUT THIS IS WHAT I CAME UP WITH. 
          THIS IS OUR ORIGINAL, WHEN WE BOUGHT OUR LAND THAT SAYS, LOOK, WE CAN LIVE RIGHT NEXT TO MOTHER NATURE. 
          YOU'RE TRYING TO TAKE THAT AWAY FROM US. 
          PEACEFUL COUNTRY LIVING 10 PLUS ACRE TRACKS. 
          WE'D LIKE TO KEEP THAT ROLLING. 
          COUNTRYSIDES SCATTERED TREES AND PONDS. 
          UM, I NOTICED IN THE AGENDA THAT YOU HIGHLIGHTED SECTIONS A COUPLE OF SECTIONS IN THERE ON UM, THE LOT, BUT I NOTICED YOU SKIP THE SECTION THAT SAYS, UM, HE CANNOT HAVE A STRUCTURE WITHIN 50 FEET OF ANY SIDELIGHT LINE, WHICH THE WAY HE HAS THE PLOTS SECTIONED OUT, HE CAN NOT DO THAT BECAUSE HE DOES NOT HAVE THE FOOTAGE. 
          I NOTICED THERE WAS ALSO A LETTER FROM WAYNE MCKINSEY, JERRY MARTIN, I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE, THAT SAYS THE LOT SIZES ARE BIG ENOUGH AND IN COMPLIANCE THEY ARE NOT, WHEN YOU BREAK THEM DOWN THE WAY HE WANTS TO BREAK THEM DOWN. 
          ALSO Y'ALL PASSED A MOTION THAT SAID DRIVEWAYS. 
          YOU HAVE TO HAVE A 75 FOOT ENTRANCE FOR DRIVEWAY ON THREE HIS LOTS. 
          HE DOES NOT HAVE 75 FEET. 
          I ALSO NOTICED THAT HE WENT TO THE WATER COMPANY AND GOT A LETTER THAT SAYS PROPERTIES AROUND THE AREAS OF COUNTY ROAD 41 26 COUNTY ROAD, 41 2017 SKIRT AND SCRAPE TEXAS ARE WITHIN OUR UTILITY DISTRICT. 
          WELL, I WENT TO THE WATER DISTRICT AND I HAVE A LETTER HERE THAT SAYS WHEN MEADOW RICH ESTATES WAS ESTABLISHED, THE WATERLINE WAS SET UP FOR ONE DWELLING PER 10 ACRES. 
          THEREFORE, IF THE PROPERTY IS TO BE SUBDIVIDED, HE WILL NEED TO PAY FOR NEW WATER LINES AND FIRE HYDRANTS AND SHE'S GOING TO NEED A COPY. 
          IS THAT THE DEED RESTRICTION OR THE LETTER FROM THAT UTILITY? 
          [00:55:02]
SO ONCE AGAIN, WE DO NOT WANT THIS. 
          PLEASE DON'T TAKE OUR COUNTRY LIVING AWAY. 
          THANK YOU. 
          THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THAT INFORMATION TO US. 
          OKAY. 
          UH, NEXT I HAVE A FAVORS. 
          I HAVE THAT NAME RIGHT. 
          GOOD MORNING. 
          IF YOU'LL, UH, TELL US YOUR NAME AND WHERE YOU LIVE. 
          YES SIR. 
          MY NAME IS CHARLIE FIBERS AND I'VE BEEN IN METAL RANCHES STATES FOR THE LAST 33 35 YEARS. 
          AND IT'S JUST LIKE THE LADY SAID, I MOVED OUT THERE FROM SAY YOUR REAL RAISE. 
          MY BOYS GRADUATED FROM CAMP AND I WANT TO LIVE IN THE COUNTRY. 
          I WANT TO RAISE MY BOYS IN THE COUNTRY. 
          AND LIKE I SAID BEFORE, I DIDN'T WANT ANYBODY COMING OUT THERE AND DIVIDING THESE TWO PLOTS UP INTO SOMETHING THAT, UH, PEOPLE CAN COME OUT THERE AND, AND MOVE IN SOME KIND OF, UH, REFURBISHED TRIBAL HOUSE THAT THEY BARELY CAN'T AFFORD TO, TO REBUILD OR WHAT ARE THEY GOING TO DO AND THEN NOT BE ABLE TO AFFORD TO FINISH IT AND GO OFF AND LEAVE IT AND THEN LAY OUT THERE AND ROCK. 
          AND THAT'S NOT COUNTRY TO ME, THAT'S JUST MIKE AND TRASH THAT NOBODY WANTS. 
          AND THEN AFTER IT SETS THERE FOR NO TELLING HOW LONG IT'S GOING TO GROW UP AND THE TRASH, THE WEEDS IS GOING TO EAT IT UP AND NOBODY WANTS IT. 
          AND WHO WANTS TO DRIVE BY AND LOOK AT SOMETHING LIKE THAT. 
          AND JUST LIKE THE LADY SAID, UM, THERE'S NOT ENOUGH, UH, WATER, UH, RECEPTACLES TO SUPPLY ALL THESE PEOPLE OUT THERE. 
          AND, UH, THE DRIVEWAY, UH, IS, IS NOT BIG ENOUGH. 
          AND IF HE GOES AND DOES ALL THIS, IT'S GOING TO MAKE THE ROADS EVEN WORSE THAN WHAT THEY ALREADY ARE. 
          AND I'M SURE MR CATES CAN TELL YOU THAT, UH, THAT, UH, ROADS OUT THERE ARE IN BAD ENOUGH SHAPE NOW THAT THE, THE GENTLEMEN ARE OUT THERE WORKING, UM, THEY IN DATE TRYING TO KEEP THEM PATCHED UP FOR THE PEOPLE THAT LIVE THERE AND YOU GO AND PUT SOMETHING IN LIKE THAT AND THEY GOING TO TURN IT INTO A RACETRACK. 
          AND I'M NOT IN ON NOTHING LIKE THAT BECAUSE LIKE I SAID, I'VE BEEN THERE SO LONG THAT IT'S ALREADY TURNED INTO A RACETRACK AND I'D LIKE TO LEAVE IT AS THE COUNTRY AND I THINK THAT THE GUY'S GONNA TRY TO DO SOMETHING TODAY LIKE ANATOMY AND LIKE THE PAPERWORK THAT I HAVE HERE SAYS THAT IT'S BUILT FOR A SINGLE FAMILY DWELLING, ONE HOUSE PER 10 ACRES. 
          AND THAT'S WHAT MY CONTRACT SAYS RIGHT HERE. 
          SO THAT'S WHY I LIKE TO LEAVE IT. 
          THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS. 
          YES, SIR. 
          I'M THE LAST ON THIS ITEM IS UH, DAVID, UH, LIGHT LIFE  FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE GIVE US YOUR NAME AND WHERE YOU LIVE. 
          OKAY. 
          I'M DAVID LFL LIVE ON LOCK NUMBER 17 OR METAL RIDGE. 
          BEN AT JENSEN'S 82 THEY JUST TREE. 
          WE HAVE DANICA LODGE. 
          WE DO NOT NEED A CREATIVE PARK OUT IN ONE SECTION. 
          HE GOT ONE SECTION HE WANTS, WE WILL CHANGE 
          [01:00:01]
THE CELL TO PUT HIM, PUT A TRIPOD OUT THERE FOR MARSHALL CRATER. 
          PAUL. 
          AND I DON'T THINK WE OUGHT TO HAVE TO SAY NO, DON'T TRAIN THE HOOD, BUT ONE, ONE GUY. 
          OKAY. 
          YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS. 
          MMM. 
          OKAY. 
          I GUESS WE'LL HEAR FROM THE MIDDLE ONE HERE FROM OTHERS, OTHER STAFF FOLKS. 
          BUT CHELSEA IN THE CAR, YOU WANT TO GIVE US A BRIEF? UM, OKAY. 
          SO, UM, MEN, A RANGE OF STATES, WE REQUIRE THEM TO GET A WILL SERVE WATER FROM THE WATER COMPANY. 
          AND THAT WAS THE LETTER THAT SHE WAS REFERRING TO. 
          I BELIEVE I'M THE FIRST SPEAKER. 
          UM, AND THAT IS FROM, EXCUSE ME, LET ME GET THERE. 
          WEST CEDAR CREEK, JUST STATING THAT THEY HAVE ENOUGH WATER TO PROVIDE THAT. 
          THAT WAS THAT LETTER THAT WE REQUIRE IN OUR SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS. 
          UM, AS FAR AS THE BUILDING OF THE LOTS THAT WENT THROUGH THE ENGINEER, HE LOOKED AT THAT, TMP SAID EVERYTHING WAS A GOOD, WITH THE CONFORMANCE OF OUR CURRENT SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS AT THE TIME WHEN MANNY WAS DOING IT, IT WASN'T THE EFFECT OF THE OH SIX REGS, NOT CURRENTLY THE ONES THAT WERE JUST PASSED IN DECEMBER. 
          UM, AS FAR AS THE SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS, OUR OFFICE WENT THROUGH THOSE AGAIN ALONG WITH THE ADA. 
          UM, AND THEN WITH IT IS THE SECOND PAGE ON THERE IS GOING TO BE ARTICLE TWO, UM, SUBSECTION B REPLOTTING OF SUBDIVISION REPLOTTING THIS, EXCUSE ME, REPOTTING OR SUBDIVIDING THE PROPERTY SHALL BE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RULES AND REGULATIONS OF KAUFMAN COUNTY AND ALL THE RESTRICTIONS HERE IN SHALL APPLY TO EACH LAW RESULTING FROM SUBDIVISION IN THE SAME MANNER, UM, AS APPLICABLE TO THE LOSS. 
          SO I DID REACH OUT VIA EMAIL TO THE HOMEOWNERS AND REQUESTED IF THEY HAD ANY ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION TO PROVIDE IT SO WE COULD RESEARCH IT. 
          UM, I UNFORTUNATELY I DIDN'T GET ANYTHING BACK. 
          MONIQUE DIDN'T GET ANYTHING BACK. 
          WE WERE LOOKING FOR DEED RESTRICTIONS, RIGHT? YES. 
          THAT WAS WHAT WE WERE LOOKING FOR. 
          UM, OTHER THAN THAT, WHAT WAS AT THE COUNTY CLERK'S OFFICE, THE COPY OF THE DEED RESTRICTIONS MONIQUE AND MYSELF PULL UP, PULLED UP FROM THE COUNTY CLERK'S OFFICE. 
          AND THEN THAT'S WHAT I JUST READ TO YOU AS FAR AS THE SUBDIVIDING OF THE PROPERTY. 
          UM, AND WE FEEL PRETTY CONFIDENT THAT UNFORTUNATELY THOSE DEED RESTRICTIONS GIVE HIM THE RIGHT TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT JUST BECAUSE IT SAYS THAT IT MUST COMPLY. 
          SO THAT'S WHY WE'RE BRINGING IT FORWARD TO YOU GUYS AGAIN TODAY. 
          QUESTIONS? SO, SO THIS DOCUMENT, UM, THAT WAS FILED WITH THE COUNTY ACTUALLY DOES HAVE A, DOES REFERENCE REPLANTING AND, AND SUBDIVIDING IN THE ORIGINAL DOCUMENT, IS THAT CORRECT? YES. 
          SO IT ACTUALLY, IT ACTUALLY ADDRESSES THE PROVISION FOR REPLANTING AND RE SUBDIVIDING. 
          YES, SIR. 
          UM, SINCE WE DID CHANGE SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS, UH, IN THE PENDENCY OF THIS, UH, CAN YOU SPEAK TO OR HAVE, WHAT IS OUR ENGINEER SAID ABOUT THE, UH, THE ISSUE OF DRIVEWAY FRONTAGE OF THE DRIVEWAY SET APART THE SPACING. 
          SO THE 20 FOOT SPACING WASN'T IN THE 2006 RAGS, BUT I BELIEVE THAT, DOES HE HAVE ENOUGH ROOM FOR THE 20 SPACE FOR CURRENT? HE DID APPLY FOR HIS APPLICATION AND PAID FEES PRIOR TO THE REGULATIONS AND WAS APPROVED BY ENGINEERING PRIOR TO YES. 
          UM, I'M LOOKING AT THE PLAT RIGHT NOW AND THE FRONT LOT WITS ARE, UM, A HUNDRED AND ABOUT 175 FEET, JUST A LITTLE BIT SHY. 
          UM, ON ONE SIDE ALONG COUNTY ROAD, FOUR, UH, FOUR, ONE, TWO, SEVEN, AND THEN ALONG COUNTY ROAD FOUR ONE, TWO, SIX, THE FRONT LOT WIDTHS ARE, UM, TWO 50, ONE 66 AND ONE 66. 
          SO THERE ARE, UH, FRONTAGE ON THOSE LOTS IN ORDER TO ALLOW DRIVEWAYS. 
          SO FOR THOSE, SO BOTH, DOES THAT APPLY BOTH TO THE PRIOR SUBDIVISION RIGS WHEN THIS STARTED AS WELL AS CURRENT SUBDIVISION REX? IT, IT CERTAINLY APPLIES TO THE SUBDIVISION RIGS THAT THIS, WE REVIEWED THIS PLOT UNDER, UH, I HAVE NOT REVIEWED THIS PLOT YET IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE NEW SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS, UM, IN DETAIL. 
          SO I CAN NOT SPEAK DIRECTLY TO THAT. 
          BUT I DO BELIEVE THAT IT WOULD, BASED ON MY KNOWLEDGE, I THINK IT WOULD MEET THEIR REQUIREMENTS. 
          I WOULD HAVE TO GO BACK AND CHECK THAT FOR CERTAIN, BUT THAT'S IRRELEVANT RIGHT. 
          SINCE YESTERDAY. 
          RIGHT. 
          SO THAT'S MY NEXT QUESTION TO THE ATTORNEY. 
          SO WE'RE THE CONTROLLING SUBDIVISION REGS OR 
          [01:05:02]
WE'RE IN EFFECT AT THE DATE OF FILING, IS THAT CORRECT? AND THEN I GUESS MY QUESTION FOR MATT, DID YOU HAVE A CHANCE TO REVIEW THROUGH THE DEED RESTRICTIONS AND COVENANTS? I LOOKED OVER THE ONES THAT WERE PROVIDED TO ME AND I DID NOT SEE ANYTHING THAT WOULD OKAY. 
          IN REGARDS TO MS SCOTT'S QUESTION ABOUT THE 50 FOOT REQUIREMENT OF THE BUILDING LINES, UM, ALL I'VE SEEN IS THE 50 FOOT FRONT BUILDING SETBACK. 
          OKAY. 
          IT ALSO ADDRESSES, UH, SIDE LOT LINES, BUT IT DOES MAKE AN EXCEPTION, UM, FOR TERRAIN AND SHAPE OF LOT, UH, UNDER THIS PARTICULAR, UH, INITIAL FILING. 
          OKAY. 
          DO YOU HAVE AN A, CAN YOU OFFER AN OPINION WITH REGARD TO THE 50 FOOT SETBACK THERE? 50 FOOT SIDE YARD SET BACKS THAT ARE REQUIRED. 
          THE COUNTY REGULATIONS REQUIRE A 15 FOOT SIDE YARD SETBACK. 
          UM, IF THOSE REGULATIONS REQUIRE 50 FOOT SIDE YARD SET BACK THAT ARE FILED WITH A DEED, I DID NOT SEE THAT IN THERE. 
          BUT, UM, IF THEY'RE REQUIRED, THEN THAT COULD BE AN ISSUE WITH THE WIDTH OF THESE LOTS. 
          SO LET ME READ IT TO YOU. 
          OKAY. 
          I MEAN, THIS IS WHAT'S IN THE DOCUMENT. 
          CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG. 
          UH, REBECCA, NO BILLING OR IMPROVEMENT OF ANY KIND SHALL BE ERECTED ON, ON ANY LOT NEAR THAN 50 FEET TO THE FRONT LINE NOR NEAR THAN 50 FEET TO ANY SIDE LOT LINE, EXCEPT THAT WHERE SURFACE TERRAIN OR SHAPE OF LOT IS NOT SUITABLE FOR BUILDING CONSTRUCTION. 
          WITHIN SAID LIMITATIONS, I REQUEST FOR A VARIANCE SHALL BE PRESENTED TO THE GRANT OR THE ASSOCIATION THAT CHANGED YOUR OPINION AT ALL? UH, SO WITH REGARD TO THE TERRAIN OF THE LOTS, I THINK THEY'RE FAIRLY FLAT. 
          UM, AND I'M NOT AWARE OF ANY DRAINAGE, UM, AREAS THROUGH THE, THROUGH THE LOTS THAT WOULDN'T REQUIRE THEM TO DO THAT. 
          UM, THE LOTS, AS I MENTIONED, WERE 170. 
          THE NARROW SLOT IS 166 FEET. 
          SO IF YOU WERE A 50 FOOT ON EITHER SIDE, THAT WOULD LEAVE HIM 66 FEET AS A BUILDING PAD. 
          IS THE DEVELOPER HERE, SIR, ARE YOU AWARE OF THOSE RESTRICTIONS? ARE YOU GOING TO BE BUILDING THE HOMES OR ARE YOU GOING TO BE SINGLE APARTMENT HOMES? YES, BASICALLY WE PUT OR REGULATIONS AND RESTRICTIONS AND I LOOK HOW THE PIXELS FOR 1995 OR THEY WERE SCIENCE WHEN THEY, HE DOES AVAILABLE MENTHOL REGIONAL. 
          YEAH. 
          SO THAT YOU'RE IN, YOU'RE AWARE THAT YOU HAVE TO TRANSFER TO THOSE TO ANY LOTS THAT DO GET RESA. 
          OKAY. 
          DOES THIS PLANT THAT'S SUBMITTED SHOW BUILDINGS? NO SIR. 
          NO. 
          OKAY. 
          YEAH. 
          SO LET ME, LET ME JUST ADDRESS A QUESTION. 
          THE DEVELOPER IF YOU'D ENTERTAIN IT. 
          SO YOU, DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT ISSUE THAT THAT UH, THE PAD VERY LIKELY WOULD BE RESTRICTED TO ABOUT 65 FEET IN WIDTH. 
          DOES THAT COMPORT WITH YOUR PLANS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT? YES. 
          AND, AND ANYTHING BEYOND THAT? WITHIN NOT BE IN CONFORMITY WITH OUR COUNTY, WITH THE DEED RESTRICTIONS HERE. 
           SO I'LL JUST MAKE ONE LAST COMMENT. 
          JUST REALLY FOR, FOR A PUBLIC INFORMATION, THIS IS AN ISSUE OR AT LEAST RELATED ISSUE THAT WE DISCUSS IN THE COMMISSIONER'S COURT AND WITH OUR CIVIL ATTORNEYS ALL THE TIME. 
          UH, UNDER TEXAS LAW, AND REBECCA, CORRECT ME IF I'M MISSPEAK, BUT UNDER TEXAS LAW, UH, COUNTIES HAVE VERY LIMITED, UM, ZONING AUTHORITY IF YOU WILL. 
          SO, UH, ALL WE REALLY HAVE THE ABILITY TO DO IS, IS TO ENFORCE OUR EXISTING SUBDIVISION REGULATION REGULATIONS OR THOSE REGULATIONS THAT WERE IN EFFECT, UH, AT THE TIME THE APPLICATIONS ARE FILED. 
          SO ONCE, ONCE EVERY ONE OF THOSE BOXES IS CHECKED, UH, REBECCA, CAN YOU JUST SPEAK TO THE COUNTY'S AUTHORITY TO DEVIATE FROM THAT? THE DECISION MAKING AUTHORITY WORKS IS IT'S WHAT WE CALL, UM, A MINISTERIAL DECISION VERSUS A DISCRETIONARY ONE. 
          MEANING THAT YOU'RE COMPLETELY RIGHT. 
          IF YOU CHECK ALL THE BOXES AND YOU'RE MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS, UM, UNLESS SOMETHING IS NOT DONE PROPERLY, LIKE IF HE WERE TO SAY IN HIS PLANS THAT HE ONLY HAD 60 FOOT OF FRONTAGE, THAT OBVIOUSLY WOULD BE, UM, A BASIS THAT YOU GUYS COULD REJECT ON. 
          UM, OTHER THAN THAT, 
          [01:10:01]
THERE'S NO DISCRETIONARY POWER THAT YOU GUYS WOULD HAVE IN ORDER TO OBJECT TO IT. 
          AND THEN UNFORTUNATELY, BECAUSE OF THE TIMELINES THAT THE LEGISLATURE HAS PLACED ON YOU GUYS, UM, IF THERE'S NOT A DECISION MADE, THEN IT KIND OF GETS APPROVED BY OPERATION OF LAW. 
          SO IT TODAY IS REALLY THE DAY TO DECIDE, UM, YES OR NO. 
          AND THEN IF NO ON WHAT BASIS AND THEN AGAIN FOR REPLANTING, THE ONLY BASIS THAT YOU GUYS HAVE IS IF IT INTERFERES WITH AN ESTABLISHED RIGHT OF ANY OWNER OF PART OF THE SUBDIVISION ARE THAT ALREADY EXIST. 
          AND SO THAT'S WHY THE COMMISSIONER AND I ARE ASKING QUESTIONS ABOUT THE FRONTAGE BECAUSE I WOULD CONSIDER THAT AN ESTABLISHED RIGHT. 
          BUT THE DEVELOPER IS ON THE RECORD SAYING THAT. 
          UM, AND THEN WE HAVE FROM ENGINEERING SAYING THAT THERE IS ENOUGH FOOTAGE TO COVER THAT REQUIREMENT. 
          SO OTHER THAN THAT, UM, THE DEED RESTRICTIONS DO ALLOW FOR THE REPLAT. 
          UM, I HAVE A QUESTION REGARDING A SEPTIC TANK, UH, PART, UH, MS, UH, SCOTT SAID THAT, THAT, THAT, THAT THERE'S NOT AN ADEQUATE SPRITE FIELD, HOWEVER YOU WANT TO ADDRESS THAT. 
          I THINK THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID. 
           YOUR HONOR, USUALLY WHEN WE WRITE THESE LETTERS ARE BASED ON THE, ON THE LOT SIZES TO MAKE SURE THAT THE LAW, IT'S OUR INSIDES TO THE, TO THE COUNTY ORDINANCE. 
          AND IF THEY'RE BIGGER THAN THE ONE ACRE PER HOME, THEN THE RAS WILL HAVE TO DETERMINE THE SPRAY FIELD, WHERE IT'D BE LOCATED AND WHAT SIZES. 
          THE SPRAY FIELD ITSELF HAS ITS OWN, UH, OFFSETS. 
          UH, USUALLY YOUR SPRAY FIELD HAS TO BE 20 FOOT OFF AT ANY SITE IN ANY PROPERTY LINES. 
          IF IT GOES ON A TIMER, WHICH IS IN OUR NEW ORDINANCE AND IT GOES TUNE FOOT OFF OF ANY PROPERTY LINES ON A NIGHT SPRAY. 
          BUT WITH THIS LETTER RIGHT HERE, THIS WAS JUST IN CONFORMANCE OR THE ONE ACRE PER HOME, PER SEPTIC. 
          SO THEY'VE MET ALL OF OUR CRITERIA PER THE ONE ACRE PER HOME. 
          SO THE SPRINGFIELD, THE SPRINGFIELD ISSUE IS SOMETHING THAT'S GOTTA BE DETERMINED WHENEVER SOMEBODY LAYS IT OUT AND THEY THEN THEY'VE GOT TO COMPETE. 
          YES SIR. 
          THE REGISTERED SANITARIAN WILL GO OUT THERE AND DO HIS SIDE EVALUATION AND THEN DRAW IT UP ACCORDING TO THE, TO THE LOT SIZE AND WHAT WORKS BEST FOR THOSE LOGS AND WHERE THE HOUSE IS. 
          BECAUSE IF THE HOUSE IS ON ONE END, HE'S GOT PLENTY. 
          IT'S PROBABLY FOR ALL OF US RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE. 
          RIGHT. 
          THE HOUSE WAS SO BIG THAT IT TOOK UP 20 FEET. 
          HE COULDN'T, HE WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO PUT IT ON A SET SEPTIC. 
          BUT I HAVE FAITH IN THE MIDDLE. 
          RIGHT. 
          PROBABLY. 
          HOW LONG, HOW LONG WERE THOSE LAWS? YOU'RE PRETTY  200 520. 
          SO EVERYTHING THAT I'VE EVER WORKED WITH AND DEALT WITH, THERE'S, THERE'S GOING TO BE ENOUGH SPACE IF THEY WERE BUILDING BIG HOMES ON A ONE ACRE LOT IS WHERE EVERYTHING KIND OF COMBOS DOWN. 
          UH, BUT LIKE, UH, LIKE I SAID, WHEN THE RAS GOES OUT THERE AND THEY GOT TO DRAW THEM UP, HE'LL DETERMINE WHAT IS BEST, WHAT SYSTEM IS BEST. 
          AND IT ALL IS BASED ON HOW MANY PEOPLE LIVE OUT THERE AND THE SIZE OF THE HOME. 
          SO THANK YOU JERRY. 
          COMING BACK INTO THE WATER. 
          OKAY. 
          I WANT TO ANSWER HER QUESTION ON THE WATER BECAUSE I DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT. 
          OKAY, I'LL, I'LL ANSWER THAT QUESTION. 
          AND THEN I HAVE ONE MORE POINT THAT OUR ENGINEER BROUGHT UP THAT MIGHT HELP YOU GUYS WITH YOUR DECISION. 
          SO THE, THE SERVICE LETTER JUST PROVIDES THAT WATER IS AVAILABLE AND CAN BE PROVIDED FOR SPECIFIC PROPERTY, BUT THEY WOULD HA THEY DEVELOPER'S AGREEMENT IS WHAT SHE'S SHOWING ME IN THE LETTER HERE. 
          AND SO MY QUESTION FOR THE DEVELOPERS THAT HE'S AWARE OF THAT STANDARD CONTRACT AND ALL THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE WATER LANG AND WATER LINE EXPANSION AND THE HYDRANTS THAT HE'S GOING TO HAVE TO PUT IN. 
          BECAUSE WHEN YOU LOOK THROUGH IT, IT'S GOING TO TELL YOU EACH OF THE RULES AND REGULATIONS, BUT THIS IS THE AGREEMENT THAT HE SIGNS BETWEEN HIM AND THE WATER COMPANY. 
          SO IF HE VIOLATES THAT THEN, WHICH INCLUDES ADDING LINES. 
          IT DOES. 
          I'M GOING TO PASS IT DOWN FOR YOU GUYS THAT WE HAVE A CHANCE TO LOOK AT IT. 
          AND THEN, SO MR. ATKINS MADE A REALLY GOOD POINT IN ORDER FOR YOU GUYS. 
          UM, WHENEVER YOU APPROVE TODAY, WE COULD APPROVE CONTINGENT ON THE ADDITION OF THOSE SIDE AND REAR BUILDING LINES TO THE PLANT. 
          SO RIGHT NOW IT JUST HAS THE FRONT BUILDING LINE 
          [01:15:01]
AND THEN IF YOU ADD THE SIDE IN THE REAR, THAT WOULD GUARANTEE THAT THE, UM, CONSTRUCTION WOULD MEET THE COVENANTS AND RESTRICTIONS. 
          IT'S NOT AN EXISTING REQUIREMENT RIGHT NOW IN OUR REGULATIONS, BUT I FEEL THAT WE CAN REQUEST THAT BASED ON, UM, THE EXISTING LIGHTS OF THE PROPERTY OWNERS THAT THEY'RE PRESENT. 
          AND, AND JUST FOR THE RECORD TO THE DEVELOPER, YOU, YOU UNDERSTOOD THIS CONVERSATION WE JUST HAD REGARDING THE ONSITE SEPTIC THAT UH, DEPENDING ON THE LOCATION OF THE PAD, IT MAY OR MAY NOT IMPACT THE ABILITY OF THAT PARTICULAR LOT TO, TO MEET OUR ONSITE SEPTIC REQUIREMENTS. 
          YOU'RE, YOU'RE AWARE OF THAT ANY DOESN'T HAVE TO HAVE THIS DONE BEFORE WE APPROVED. 
          I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IN THE CONTRACT CALLS. 
          I'M SORRY, SAY THAT AGAIN. 
          THAT'S MY NAME TO THE WATER COMPANY FOR ALL THE CALLS AND ALL THAT BEFORE THEY'LL DO IT. 
          OR THIS DAY'S GOING TO BE IN TO HAVE THAT DONE BEFORE YOU PRUNE WHAT THEY SAID? NO. 
          OKAY. 
          UM, SO WE, UH, UH, WE CAN, WE HAVE FOR CONSIDERATION ON THIS ITEM, WE CAN, WE CAN, UH, CONSIDER A MOTION TO ACCEPT THE PLAT CON. 
          THERE'S A COUPLE OF CONTINGENCIES THAT I THINK COULD PUT IN THAT BE PUT IN THAT MOTION. 
          ONE OF THEM IS THAT THAT PLAT BE RESUBMITTED OR THAT PLANT BE RESUBMITTED SHOWING LINES, BUILDING LINES, SHOT FOR THIS, FOR THE SIDE SETBACK, MAKE SURE THAT THAT, SO IT'S REALLY CLEAR THAT THAT'S WHAT IT HAS TO BE AND THE REAR AND THAT THE WATER IN THAT, UH, MAKE IT ALSO CONTINGENT ON MEETING ALL OUR SETS WILL BE CONTINGENT ON MEETING ALL THE REQUIREMENTS OF WHAT'S YOUR GREEK WATER SUPPLY. 
          IS THAT WHAT YOU WERE SAYING? NO. 
          SO OUR CURRENT REGS DO NOT REQUIRE, UM, FOR A DEVELOPER TO GO AHEAD AND APPROVE AND PAY FOR ALL OF THE WATER IMPROVEMENTS AND FACILITIES. 
          UM, CAUSE IF YOU GUYS APPROVE PLOTS ALL THE TIME THAT DON'T HAVE THAT TYPE OF INFRASTRUCTURE APPROVED, IS THAT WHERE YOU WERE? THAT'S WHAT YOU WERE SAYING. 
          RIGHT. 
          BUT IT SAYS, IT SAYS IN THE WATER GOTTEN DRAGGED AND THEN HE'S GOING TO HAVE TO DO, RIGHT. 
          RIGHT. 
          BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT REBECCA SAYING. 
          THAT'S NOT OUR SUGGESTION IS THE REAR SETBACK AND THE SIDE BUILDING LINES ALLOW HIM TO TAP INTO THE WATER UNTIL HE FELL. 
          YEAH. 
          WHICH THEN YOU CAN'T SELL A LOT WITHOUT THE WATER. 
          SO YOU THEN, IT IS LIKE THIS KIND OF A SAD THING THAT THE ADVERTISER THAT HAD DEVELOPED THIS TO APP, THIS IS WHY IT'S GOING TO BE, AND I WAS GOING TO CHANGE AND THEN WE TAGGED IT BECAUSE THEY DON'T RECORD IT MEANS, YUP. 
          IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN THE LEADERSHIP RECORDED BECAUSE ON THE DEED RESTRICTION IN THAT PACKET YOU MADE, UH, AND THIS PERSON THAT'S DOING THE SUBDIVISION IS NOT THE ORIGINAL DEVELOPER. 
          RIGHT. 
          IS IT? NO, THIS IS NOT THE ORIGINAL DEVELOPER. 
          NO, SORRY, THIS IS GONE. 
          YEAH. 
          THEN SOMEBODY ELSE HAS REESE. 
          SO HIS CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATION FOR WATER IS WITH THE WEST. 
          SO YOUR CREEK MUNICIPAL UTILITY DISTRICT HAVING TO DO WITH THIS. 
          RIGHT. 
          AND WE HAVE TO WORK ON THE ASSUMPTION THAT THEY'RE NOT GONNA, THEY'RE NOT GONNA RUN WATER TO HIM. 
          THEY'RE NOT GOING TO LET HIM, THEY'RE NOT GOING TO PROVIDE HIM WATER UNTIL HE MEETS THEIR REQUIREMENTS. 
          CORRECT. 
          OKAY. 
          SO, UH, WE CAN, UH, WE CAN APPROVE, WE CAN TAKE THEM. 
          UM, WE CAN HEAR A MOTION TO APPROVE, WE CAN HEAR A MOTION TO REJECT, BUT IF WE HAVE A MOTION TO REJECT, I THINK WE HAVE TO, WE WOULD HAVE TO, WE NEED TO SAY WHAT WE'RE REJECTING IT FOR. 
          AND UM, AND IF WE, IF WE TAKE NO ACTION, THEN IT, THEN IT BASICALLY IS APPROVED, BECOMES KIND OF APPROVED. 
          IT BECOMES APPROVED ANYWAY, OR THE, THE SENSE, SINCE WE HAVE THE LENS 
          [01:20:01]
IN THE DRIVEWAY LENS AND THE THINGS THAT ARE MADE IN SETBACKS, DO WE HAVE TO REQUIRE THAT? AND SHELL IS BUILDING SURFACE IN HIS PLANS. 
          YEAH, NO, I MEAN, ONCE YOU HAVE THOSE BUILDING SETBACK LINES, THAT'LL TAKE CARE OF THAT ISSUE. 
          AND THEN ON TOP OF THAT, HE'S GOING TO HAVE TO REFILE EACH OF THESE COVENANTS AND RESTRICTIONS FOR ANY LOT THAT HE SELLS. 
          OKAY. 
          SO, UH, I GUESS I'LL CALL IT A QUESTION. 
          UH, IS THERE A MOTION REGARDING ITEM 19? SO JUDGE ALLAH, I HAVING NOTED THAT THE ORIGINAL, THE ORIGINAL DEVELOPMENT DOCUMENTS DID IN FACT PROVIDE FOR SUBDIVISION. 
          ALSO NOTE THAT IT ACTUALLY DOES PROVIDE FOR SINGLE WIDE MOBILE HOMES AS PERMANENT DWELLINGS AND GIVEN THE CAVEAT RECOMMENDED BY THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY'S OFFICE THAT UH, WE REQUIRE THE PLAT TO BE RESUBMITTED SHOWING SETBACK LINES AND BOUNDARIES AND I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE REPLANTING. 
          OKAY. 
          AND YOUR MOTION IS CONTINGENT ON RESUBMITTING. 
          THAT WON'T REQUIRE FURTHER ACTION BY US, BUT IT HAS BEEN ORDERED TO BE, UH, IN ORDER FOR THAT MOTION TO CARRY, IT'S GOT TO BE THE SIDE BACK FRONT. 
          SETBACKS HAVE TO BE SHOWN ON THE PLAT. 
          CORRECT. 
          THAT'S MY MOTION. 
          OKAY. 
          THAT'S THE MOTION. 
          IS THERE A SECOND? THAT'S THE MOTION IS FROM COMMISSIONER GATES. 
          IS THERE A SECOND? WELL, OKAY. 
          I MEAN SOMEBODY GOT SECOND. 
          NO, I WAS LIKE, OKAY. 
          I'LL JUST, BECAUSE AT LEAST GET THAT IN HERE BY DOING THIS. 
          AT LEAST WE'RE GETTING THE SAME ON THE MAP. 
          SO I'LL DO UNDERSTAND THE NO ACTION, NO ACTION. 
          THE LAST WAY TO RUIN. 
          SO AT LEAST WE'RE TRYING OUR BEST HERE TO PUT, YEAH. 
          RESTRICTS. 
          OKAY, SO WE HAVE A MOTION COMMISSIONER CAGE. 
          WE HAVE A SECOND FROM COMMISSIONER PHILLIPS. 
          DISCUSSION. 
          THOSE IN FAVOR SIGNIFY BY SAYING AYE, THOSE OPPOSED? NO, THAT MOTION CARRIES. 
          THANK YOU GUYS. 
          ITEM 20 
          [20. Monique Hunter; To Present/Accept Development Services Quarterly Report for October 2019 through December 2019.]
MONI CONNOR, PRESENT FOR AND PRESENT FOR EXCEPT PLUS DEVELOPMENT SERVICES. 
          QUARTERLY REPORT FOR OCTOBER, 2019 THROUGH DECEMBER OF 2019 MONIQUE HAS CHANGED A BIT. 
          YOU'VE GROWN MY MONIQUE ATE HER WHEATIES AND THIS MONIQUE'S A LITTLE UNDER THE WEATHER THIS MORNING, SO I TOOK MY TIME TO HELP HER. 
          SO, SO IN THE DAY ENDING OF THE FOURTH QUARTER, WE FINISHED OFF FINANCIALLY WITH $144,761 AND 20 CENTS WHICH IS ALMOST $50,000 MORE THAN WHAT WE DO LAST YEAR IN 2018 THE YEAR ENDING FOR, FOR THE FINANCIALS FOR 2019 DEVELOPMENT SERVICES, THAT $550,769 AND 6 CENTS WHICH WAS ABOUT 24% MORE AND BIGGER THAN WHAT WE DID LAST YEAR AS OF GROWTH. 
          THAT JUST KIND OF GOES TO SHOW YOU THAT IN THE INDICATION ON HOW BIG THE COUNTY AND HOW FAST IT'S GROWING. 
          IS THERE ANY QUESTIONS? NO. 
          YOU'RE DOING A GOOD JOB. 
          WE'LL MAKE RIGHT. 
          OKAY. 
          IF THERE ARE NO HAIR COLOR CHANGES, IF THERE ARE NO QUESTIONS, IS THERE A MOTION TO ACCEPT THE DEVELOPMENT SERVICES QUARTERLY REPORT FOR OCTOBER 19 THROUGH DECEMBER? I'LL MAKE THAT MOTION. 
          MOTION COMMISSIONER PHILLIPS IS OUR SECOND.

          THAT WAS EASY.

          [21. Monique Hunter; Motion to approve new 911 Addressing application forms]
21 JERRY MOTION TO APPROVE THE NEW NINE 11 APPLICATION FORMS. SO WE, WE, WE CAME OUT WITH A NEW APPLICATION FORM FOR ALL NINE 11 ADDRESSES THAT GO FOR INDIVIDUAL RESIDENTIALS AND OR BIG SUBDIVISIONS THAT COME IN. 
          THE BIGGEST CHANGES THAT I SEEN IS REALLY ON THE SUBDIVISION, THE PRELIMINARY ADDRESSES. 
          SO I WANT A BIG PLAQUE COMES IN AND WE DO PRELIMINARY ADDRESSES AND THEN WE SEND IT BACK AND THEN ANY CHANGES THAT COME IN, THEN WE'D MAKE THE CHANGES AND GO WITH IT. 
          WHERE WE'RE DOING THE PRELIMINARIES BECAUSE SOME DEVELOPERS IN THE PAST, I'VE KIND OF JUMPED THE GUN AND ISSUED THOSE ADDRESSES BEFORE THE PLANT WAS FINALIZED. 
          SO WE'RE KIND OF TRYING TO SLOW IT DOWN A LITTLE BIT BEFORE WE HAD TO, YOU KNOW, FIX THE PROBLEM ON TOP OF EACH OTHER. 
          [01:25:04]
AND THEN OF COURSE YOU GOT YOUR FINAL ADDRESSES AND WOULD BE ATTACHED AFTERWARDS WHEN THE PLANT IS FINALIZED AND RECORDED WITH THE COUNTY. 
          THIS IS NOT REALLY COMPLICATED THING UNLESS SOMEBODY PUTS AN ADDRESS SOMEWHERE WHERE THERE'S NOT A STREET OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, THEN IT BECOMES A PROBLEM. 
          RIGHT? YES SIR. 
          OR WE'VE, WE'VE TAKEN SEVERAL PHONE CALLS OVER THE LAST SEVERAL MONTHS WHERE, UM, PEOPLE IN KAUFMAN COUNTY HAVE CALLED IN SAYING THAT THEY CAN'T, THEY CAN'T FIND THEIR ADDRESS SOMEWHERE. 
          AND IT WAS, CAUSE IT WAS NEVER RECORDED, BUT THE DEVELOPER GAVE IT OUT AND IT WAS NEVER PUTTING INTO THE ARC FOR THE NCT. 
          SO IT'S NOT PUTTING IN, YOU KNOW, AND WE HAVEN'T FOUND IT. 
          THAT'S RIGHT. 
          WHICH IS NOT GOOD WHEN YOUR HOUSE IS ON FIRE. 
          YES. 
          I DON'T KNOW. 
          OKAY. 
          SO, UH, IF THERE ARE NO MORE QUESTIONS, IS THERE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE NEW NINE 11 ADDRESSING APPLICATION FORMS? I'LL MAKE THAT MOTION.

          WE FEEL A LOT OF THE QUESTIONS IS GOING TO COME IN AND GO TO, THIS COMMITTEE IS GOING TO BE SEPTIC RELATED OR ENVIRONMENT RELATED. 
          UH, WE THINK IT WOULD BE BEST TO HAVE A DR ON THE COMMITTEE THAT KNOWS THE RULES AND THE LAWS AND CAN, UH, CAN BASE AND UNDERSTAND AND PRESENT THOSE AT THE COMMITTEE IF THE VARIANCE IS NEEDED. 
          WAS THE IDEA TO JUST NAME A DR NOT NECESSARILY BY NAME, JUST SOMEBODY IN THAT POSITION? YEAH, IT ALSO BRINGS THE COMMITTEE TO FIVE PEOPLE, WHICH WOULD HELP WITH THE VOTING PROCESS IN CASE THERE'S A DEADLOCK. 
          OKAY.

          I WAS JUST GOING TO DO SOME REPAIR WORK ON METALS ROAD FOR A CITY OF POSTAL BN QUESTIONS. 
          IS THERE A MOTION? I'LL MAKE A MOTION THAT WE ACCEPT THE AGREEMENT. 
          WE HAVE MOTION TO ACCEPT THAT AGREEMENT AS PRESENTED ITEM 26 AS YOUR SECOND.

          THOSE IN FAVOR SIGNIFY BY SAYING AYE. 
          OPPOSED? MOTION CARRIES. 
          ITEM 27. 
          COMMISSIONER PHILLIPS, I'M GOING TO INTERRUPT YOU FOR JUST ONE SECOND. 
          UM, IT'S BEEN BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION ON ITEM 19 THAT UH, THE SURVEYOR'S OFFICE, GREG AND MICHELLE WORKED ON THE SURVEY FOR THIS DEVELOPER AND THEY'RE GOING BACK THROUGH THE, BECAUSE HE IMMEDIATELY WENT TO THEIR OFFICE, YOU'RE GOING BACK THROUGH THE DEED RESTRICTIONS AND COVENANTS AND THERE ACTUALLY IS NOT A REAL REQUIREMENT WITHIN THOSE RESTRICTIONS. 
          AND SO THEIR QUESTION IS WHAT WOULD THAT BE IF YOU GUYS HAVE APPROVED THAT AS PART OF THE CONTINGENCY TO YOUR MOTION AND UM, IF THERE'S NOT ONE, THEN THE SUGGESTION WOULD BE TO REMOVE THAT PART OF THE CONTINGENCY FROM THE APPROVAL AND JUST DO THE SIDE SETBACKS AND THE FRONT SETBACKS OF THE BUILDING LINE. 
          DOES IT MATTER? IT WOULDN'T MATTER BECAUSE IF YOU PUT A BACK REAR SETBACK AND THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THE DISTANCE OF THAT IS, THEN IT'S WHAT WOULD IT BE? AND THEN IF YOU, IF THEY DIDN'T INCLUDE IT, WOULD THAT BE A VIOLATION OF THE ORDER AND THEN CAUSE AN ISSUE DOWN THE ROAD? SO THE SUGGESTION WOULD BE TO AMEND THE AND HAVE IT BE CONTINGENT ON FRONT END SIDE. 
          I MEAN, I'M, I'M 
          [01:35:01]
WONDERING IF WE CAN AMEND THE MOTION. 
          I MEAN, WE'VE ALREADY VOTED IN THE PAST. 
          IT, UH, DOESN'T THAT HAVE TO COME BACK AROUND ON ANOTHER AGENDA? I THINK BECAUSE YOU'RE AN OPEN SESSION AND IT'S LISTED AS AN AGENDA, YOU CAN MAKE A MOTION TO REOPEN THAT AND AMEND. 
          OKAY. 
          THEN, THEN THAT'S, THAT'S WHAT WE'LL DO, I GUESS. 
          UH, SO WE'RE GOING TO GO BACK TO ITEM 19, AND, UH, AND COMMISSIONER CAGE WAS THE ONE WHO MADE THAT MOTION AND EXPRESS THAT CONTINGENT. 
          WOULD YOU, UH, READ, MAKE THAT MOTION THE SECOND TIME? YES. 
          AGAIN, BECAUSE OF A FAILURE TO ACT BY THE COMMISSIONER'S COURT WOULD RESULT IN THIS BEING APPROVED WITHOUT ANY, UM, UH, ENHANCEMENT, IF YOU WILL, TO THE DEVELOPMENT. 
          SO I WOULD A JUDGE, I'D LIKE TO AMEND MY ORIGINAL MOTION AND REQUIRE UH, THAT THIS OR ASKED THAT THIS BE APPROVED CONTINGENT ON THE PLAT, UH, DEMONSTRATING THE FRONT AND SIDE SETBACK LINES AND TO DELETE A REQUIREMENT FOR THE REAR SETBACK, WHICH IS NOT PROVIDED FOR IN THE ORIGINAL SUBDIVISION DOCUMENTS. 
          OKAY. 
          UM, SO THAT'S THE MOTION YOU'VE HEARD. 
          IS THERE A SEC MESS FOR COMMISSIONER KATES? IS THERE A SECOND? A SECOND SEGMENT.

          SURE. 
          YEAH. 
          THIS IS, THIS IS OWN THE WINDMILL FARMS. THEY MADE A NEW DISTRICT AND THEY HAVE TO HAVE THEM FRESH WATER BOARD AND THESE ARE THE PEOPLE THAT WERE APPOINTED TO THE BOARD AND THEY HAVE TO BE ELECTED. 
          SO DURING THE NATURAL PROCESS AND THE NEXT ELECTION TERMS, THEY'LL ALL BE ELECTED.

          AND THAT LIST IS PROVIDED AND AT LEAST IS PROVIDED.

          MAYBE IT WOULD BE APPOINTED UP UNTIL THE NEXT ELECTION. 
          RIGHT? RIGHT. 
          WELL, I THINK THREE OF THEM WANTED TO BE ON ONE ELECTION, THEN TWO OF THEM ON THE NECK, YOU KNOW, SO THAT IT WON'T BE ALL NO MORE THAN AT THE SAME TIME. 
          OKAY. 
          YOU WANT TO PUT THAT IN THE FORM OF EMOTION, BUT THEN IN THE FORM OF MOTION.

          CONSIDER AWARD OF CONTRACT RFP 2004 CEDAR CREEK WATER SITE REPAIR WATERSHED AND SIREN REPAIR. 
          WE DID GET ALL THE BIDS IN FOR RFP 20 ZERO FOR THIS. 
          TEXAS STATE WATER CONSERVATION BOARD HAS SINCE, UM, AMENDED THE ORIGINAL CONTRACT BECAUSE THE BIDS THAT CAME IN WERE AN ADDITIONAL, A HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS THAN WHAT THEY HADN'T BUDGETED. 
          SO WE HAVE GOTTEN APPROVAL FOR THE SPENDING AND WE HAVE A NEW CONTRACT FOR THE JUDGE'S SIGNATURE. 
          IF YOU AGREE TO THE FUNDS, IT WILL SHOW ON THE PAPERWORK THAT KAUFMAN COUNTY IS NOW ELIGIBLE FOR 5% OF THE NEW TOTAL. 
          HOWEVER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS INVOICE THAT WE SEND AT THE END OF THE PROJECT WOULD ALSO REFLECT THAT INCREASE. 
          SO IT SHOULD STILL BALANCE OUT 
          [01:40:01]
THE SAME. 
          SO A 5% THAT WE GET FOR MANAGING IT WILL GO UP. 
          OKAY. 
          UM, QUESTIONS. 
          IF THERE ARE NO QUESTIONS, IS THERE A MOTION TO AWARD THE CONTRACT FOR RFP 2004.

ITEM 31 DISCUSSING CONSIDER AWARD OF CONTRACT RFP 2009 2019 COFFIN COUNTY BOND PROGRAM FACILITIES MASTER PLAN. 
          SO THE COMMITTEE MET TO GO OVER ALL OF THE RFPS RECEIVED FOR THE FACILITIES MASTER PLAN. 
          A. 
          YOU CAN TELL ABOUT THE SCORING. 
          THE UH, VENDOR HOK IS THE ONE THAT THE COMMITTEE WOULD RECOMMEND. 
          I DO WANT TO NOTE THE COMMITTEE IS REQUESTING THAT THE COMMISSIONER'S COURT ALLOW US TO GO INTO CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS WITH HOK, BUT TO PULL OUT ONLY PORTIONS OF THEIR PROPOSAL THAT WE NEED AT THIS TIME. 
          AND THAT WOULD BE JUST THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT TO INCLUDE, UM, THE SUB COURTHOUSES FOR ALL THREE OF THE ADDITIONAL PRECINCTS, ANNEX, THE DOWNTOWN STOREFRONTS AND THE SOUTH CAMPUS. 
          SO EACH IN EACH VENDOR PRESENTED A LARGE SCOPE RFP. 
          AND SO WHAT WE'LL WANT TO DO IS MAINTAIN THE PRICING AND PULL OUT WHAT WE NEED AT THIS TIME. 
          OKAY. 
          I GUESS NOW THE LIES I'M BETWEEN HOK IS GOING TO BE OUR FACILITIES DIRECTOR. 
          YES. 
          SO I MEAN BECAUSE HE KNOWS THE FACILITIES, HE KNOWS THE NEEDS, HE KNOWS EVERYTHING ABOUT THEM. 
          SO THAT WOULD BE OUR, THEIR PRIMARY CONTACT WOULD BE THE FACILITIES GUY. 
          QUESTIONS. 
          OKAY. 
          THEN WHAT'S BEFORE US WOULD BE A TWO AWARD CONTRACT RFP 2009 FOR THE FACILITIES MASTER PLAN. 
          IS THERE A MOTION? I'LL MAKE A MOTION. 
          WE HAVE EMOTIONAL COMMISSIONER BORROWER TO AWARD THAT CONTRACT. 
          IS THERE A SECOND? OH SECOND CYCLE COMMISSIONER HUNT DISCUSSION. 
          DO WE HAVE TO PUT THE STIPULATIONS THAT SHE SAID ABOUT THE RESTRICTING THE CERTAIN BUILDINGS YOU WANT TO PUT IN THE NO, THAT WAS JUST PERMISSION FOR THE PERSONNEL DEPARTMENT. 
          CORE CONTRACT REASONS. 
          OKAY. 
          SO LET ME GET A MOTION AND A SECOND DISCUSSION. 
          JUST WANT TO POINT OUT THAT, UH, THAT THESE WERE OPEN PUBLIC BIDS AND THESE ARE THE, THESE ARE THE VENDORS THAT THESE ARE ALL THE VENDORS THAT SUBMITTED. 
          YES. 
          AND THEN SAYING THAT WE'RE GOING EXCELLENT. 
          HIRE HIM RIGHT WITH THIS FOR THE PRICE AND THEN THEY'RE GOING TO BRING THE PAST MATE. 
          NEXT STEP WAS THE NEXT STEP IS FOR THE PURCHASING DEPARTMENT TO, YOU KNOW, THEY, THEY ALL OF THEM GAVE A FACILITY MASTER'S PLAN THAT WAS, THAT WAS ALL ENCOMPASSING AND UH, INCLUDED LOTS AND LOTS OF STUFF. 
          AND SO WHAT REGULAR IS GOING TO DO? SO WE DON'T WANT YOU TO LOOK AT THIS, THE WHOLE BIG THING. 
          WE JUST WANT YOU TO LOOK AT THESE FACILITIES AND TELL US WHAT DO WE NEED TO DO ABOUT THESE FACILITIES. 
          JUST THE SPECIFIC ONES. 
          SO DON'T TAKE WHATEVER THE SAY OUT OF THAT IS AND SHE'LL JUST NEGOTIATE THAT PRICE WITH THEM. 
          YES. 
          BASED ON THEIR ORIGINAL PROPOSAL. 
          OKAY.

          HI. 
          LET'S SUPPOSE, NO, THAT MOTION CARRIES. 
          [32. Raylan Smith; Discuss and consider award of contract for RFP 20-12: Kaufman County Compensation & Classification Study.]
ITEM 32 DISCUSSING, CONSIDER AWARD OF CONTRACT RFP, 2012 COFFIN COUNTY COMPENSATION CLASSIFICATION STUDY. 
          SO THIS IS KIND OF THE SAME SITUATION EXCEPT THE COMMITTEE DID BRING FORWARD SOME ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS AS FAR 
          [01:45:01]
AS THE EXACT NEED OF THE COUNTY. 
          UM, THE RFPS THAT WERE RECEIVED. 
          IT WAS A BROAD SCOPE OF WHAT EACH COMPANY COULD PROVIDE. 
          SO IN MEETING WITH THE COMMITTEE, THEIR SUGGESTION WAS WE WENT THROUGH THE SCORING PROCESS BUT TO HAVE SOME REAL CLEAR AND DEFINED LINES FROM COMMISSIONER'S COURT AND ALSO WORKING WITH THE HR DIRECTOR TO MAKE SURE THAT WHEN WE GO TO THE HIGH SCORE VENDOR THAT WE KNOW EXACTLY WHAT WE'RE ASKING FOR IN THE, UM, THE INFORMATION THAT WE'RE NEEDING BASED ON THE PROPOSAL THAT THEY GAVE. 
          ARE WE WANTING TO GRADE SKILLS FOR EVERY POSITION? THERE'S JUST, THERE'S SOME LOGISTICS THAT I THINK WE NEED TO GET, MAKE SURE THERE'S A CONSENSUS BEFORE WE GO TO THE VENDOR BEFORE WE APPROVE ANY CONTRACTS. 
          YES. 
          YEAH. 
          UM, AND I, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE SOME OF THEM HAD SUCH WIDE RANGE, UM, YOU KNOW, AND I DON'T THINK WE WERE GOING TO DO THAT. 
          SO, AND WE MIGHT NOT EVEN THEM FOR THE IMPLEMENTED ANYWAY. 
          ONE SUGGESTION COULD BE THAT, UH, I COULD SEND OUT TO YOU COPIES OF EACH OF THE RFPS. 
          UM, I DO HAVE A LIST OF QUESTIONS THAT FROM, FROM THE NOTES FROM THE COMMITTEE THAT Y'ALL CAN RE REVIEW INDIVIDUALLY. 
          UM, IT JUST MAY BE SOMETHING THAT WE, WE'RE DEFINITELY GOING TO NEED A DEFINED SCOPE WHENEVER WE GO TO THE VENDOR. 
          I THINK THAT THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE COULD ACTUALLY PUT ON AND TALK ABOUT. 
          I AGREE FOR US TO TALK ABOUT BECAUSE AFTER READING ALL THE THINGS IN HR, YOU KNOW, AND, AND THAT ADA IS OFFICES, ALL US ARE KIND OF IN THE SAME AGREEMENT THAT NEVER, SO WHY AT FIRST WE DON'T, WE DON'T NEED THAT. 
          I MEAN, WE DO NOW IS WE, WE, BASED ON THE SCORING THAT THE COMMITTEE DID, WE SELECT ONE OF THESE, UH, WE SELECT THE HIGH SCORE AND SCORE AND THEN WE SIT DOWN AND TALK. 
          WE'RE NOT CO, WE'RE NOT OBLIGATED TO MEAN TO DO ANYTHING, RIGHT. 
          BUT WE HAVE A LONG CONVERSATION WITH THEM ABOUT WHAT WE REALLY NEED. 
          AND I THINK THERE'S SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO HAVE A, THEY HAVE A DISSEMINATION SHOP. 
          HAVE A WORKSHOP WITH THEM. 
          YEAH. 
          RIGHT. 
          I THINK THAT THAT, SO I GUESS GETTING THOSE QUESTIONS TO US AND GET THEIR QUESTION TO US AND, AND WE'LL PUT IT ON A WORKSHOP SESSION. 
          NOT TODAY. 
          NOT TODAY. 
          NO. 
          Y'ALL HAVE PLENTY TO DO TODAY. 
          I JUST THINK AS LONG AS, I MEAN, IF WE'RE, IF WE'RE BIDDING ON ONE THAT WE'RE NOT OBLIGATED TO, BECAUSE I THINK THERE'S SO MANY VARIABLE PARTS THAT COULD CHANGE THE PRICING, THAT COULD CHANGE WHO WE WANT, THAT IT'S HARD TO PUT DOWN WHO WE'RE GOING TO DO. 
          BECAUSE IF EVERYONE'S NOT ON BOARD AND YOU ONLY HAVE HALF THE POPULATION, UM, IT COULD CHANGE THE PERSON'S SIGNIFICANT WEIGHT. 
          SO I'M JUST, I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WHATEVER WE VOTE, WE'RE NOT WALKING INTO. 
          WELL AND THAT'S, THAT'S WHY I WENT INTO WORKSHOP IS BECAUSE I THINK THAT, I THINK THAT, UH, YOU KNOW, LIKE ONE OF THEM HAS, UH, A TOTAL COMPUTER PLAN. 
          BASICALLY WE GIVE THEM THE NUMBERS, WE GIVE THEM WHAT WE NEED AND THEY CAN KEEP IT UPDATE AND WE CAN UPDATE IT. 
          WHATEVER YOU WANT TO DO. 
          AND THEY'RE PRESSING ONE THING. 
          ANOTHER ONE JUST COMES IN AND DOES IT ALL AND DOES ALL THE NUMBERS AND DOES ALL THE WORK FOR YOU AND YOU KNOW, OKAY. 
          SO THERE'S BIG DIFFERENCES IN THE ACTUAL BIDS THEIRSELF. 
          BUT I'M ASSUMING THAT THE COMMITTEE TOOK ALL THAT STUFF INTO THE SCORES THAT THE COMMITTEE GAVE STILL. 
          RIGHT, RIGHT. 
          I THINK, I THINK THAT'S PRETTY GOOD. 
          I THINK THAT A JUDGE, YES MA'AM. 
          ONE OF THE, ONE OF THE FARMS THEY KNEW CLOSE TO HOW MANY EMPLOYEES WE HAD. 
          SO THEY DID THAT BASED ON HOW MANY EMPLOYEES AND WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT, YOU CAN'T DO IT THAT WAY. 
          YOU KNOW, THEY HAVE TO BE PAID. 
          SO WE'RE GOING TO LEAVE. 
          CLASSIFICATION HAS TO BE PAID THE SAME AMOUNT. 
          SO IF YOU TOOK THEM AWAY, THE PRICE WOULDN'T BE THAT HIGH. 
          BUT THEY MIGHT NOT WANT TO DO THE PROJECT EITHER. 
          RIGHT? SO WE'RE GOING TO STICK WITH THE SCORING THAT THE COMMITTEE DID. 
          YES. 
          QUESTION IS WHETHER WE WANT TO GO HERE IN A, IN A, IN UH, UH, THE TERM IS AWARD THE CONTRACT. 
          BUT THAT'S, AND THAT'S, THAT'S WHAT IT SAYS AND THAT'S WHAT WE CAN VOTE, VOTE ON. 
          BUT WE'RE GOING TO HAVE WORKSHOP DISCUSSIONS BEFORE WE SIGN ANY CONTRACT. 
          RIGHT BEFORE YOU WERE JUST SAYING, LISTEN, LET'S TALK THROUGH THIS. 
          WE'RE GOING TO DO THE WORK INTO WHO THE VENDOR WILL BE, BUT WE HAVE YET TO ESTABLISH THE SCOPE OF THE WORK, WHAT, WHAT THEY NEEDED TO DO AND WHAT WE NEED TO DO. 
          [01:50:01]
OKAY. 
          SO IT I THINK, I THINK THAT'S CLEAR. 
          AND SO WHAT IS, UH, WHAT'S BEFORE US IS LOOKING FOR A MOTION TO AWARD THE CONTRACT FOR RFP 20 DASH 12 YEAH, I'LL MAKE THAT MOTION. 
          WE HAVE THAT MOTION. 
          COMMISSIONER PHILLIPS, IS THERE A SECOND? I'LL SECOND.

          WE HAD ONE INDIVIDUAL RESPOND TO THE RFP, I'M SORRY, THE RFQ. 
          AND SO THE RECOMMENDATION WOULD BE TO GO INTO NEGOTIATIONS WITH INNOVATIVE TRANSPORTATION SOLUTIONS. 
          THIS WOULD BE A FIVE YEAR CONTRACT AND BASICALLY IT WOULD BE A CONTRACT RENEWAL BECAUSE THIS WAS OUR PREVIOUS VENDOR AS WELL. 
          IS HE GIVING US A DISCOUNT? TECHNICALLY HE WOULD SAY HE DID. 
          PROBABLY.
