Oct 13, 2020 Commissioners Court

TO ITEM TWO, WHICH IS CONSENT AGENDA.

ANYBODY ELSE? OKAY.

THAT MOVES US ON

[2. CONSENT AGENDA]

UH, WE HAVE ITEMS A THROUGH G IS THERE ANYTHING ON THE CONSENT AGENDA WE'D WOULD LIKE TO DISCUSS IN DETAIL, IF NOT, IS THERE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE CONSENT AGENDA AS PRESENTED WHEN EMOTION COMMISSIONER PHILLIPS? IS THERE A SECOND, SECOND, SECOND DISCUSSION.

THERE'S A FAVOR SIGNIFY BY SAYING AYE.

AYE.

MOTION CARRIES.

[3. Quorum; Kaufman County Pet Adoption Center Presentation]

UH, EXCITED ABOUT THIS ITEM FOR SURE.

UH, FORUM ARCHITECTS, UH, AS I THINK, YOU KNOW, HAVE BEEN WORKING ON OUR ADOPTION CENTER AND THEY HAVE A PRESENTATION, GET US UP TO SPEED ON WHERE WE ARE RIGHT NOW IN THE PROCESS.

SO WHILE WE ARE WORKING ON THE COMPLINE COUNTY PET ADOPTION CENTER, IF YOU'RE NOT FAMILIAR WITH THE AREA IS LOCATED OUT AT THE JUSTICE CENTER.

SO WHERE YOU SEE THE RED CIRCLE UP HERE, THIS HAS NOT BEEN THE ACTUAL SITE.

THIS IS THE EXISTING JUSTICE CENTER.

AND THEN YOU CAN'T ACCESS.

WHEN ARE YOU COMING IN THIS AREA? SO WE WILL BE IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THE AREA.

SO WE ARE WORKING CLOSELY WITH THE ARCHITECT, FOR THE, UH, FOR THE OTHER CENTER TO TIE SOME SIMILARITY TO THE MORE, THE MODERN ASPECTS OF EVERYTHING.

AND YOU'LL SEE SOME OF THAT JUST A FEW MINUTES.

UH HERE'S THE ACROSS SITE PLAN IS DIRECTLY GOING TO BE OFF OF THE FUTURE FURNITURE.

THAT'S GOING TO BE COMING ALL THE WAY THROUGH, BUT IN THE MEANTIME, WE'RE GOING TO BE SHARING THE SAME DRIVE.

THAT'S GOING TO BE COMING IN FROM THE JUSTICE CENTER THAT YOU SEE HERE.

WE'LL HAVE THE FRONT PUBLIC PARKING STAFF PARKING WILL BE COMPLETELY SEPARATED.

THE SALLY PORT, THAT'S GOING TO BE INCLUDED.

YOU'LL SEE MULTIPLE PLAY ART'S ON THE FACILITY.

SO WE'LL HAVE ONE GETS NO PLAY YARD UP HERE.

AND SEVERAL PLAY ARDS IN THE NIGHT OVERALL FLOOR PLAN AT THE FACILITY IS GOING TO BE VERY WELCOMING TO THE PUBLIC.

YOU'LL HAVE YOUR PUBLIC AREAS.

YOU'LL HAVE SEPARATE VIEWING AREAS VERSUS WHERE THE ANIMALS ARE HOUSED

[00:05:01]

JUST FOR THE SAFETY OF THE ANIMALS.

SO WE'LL KIND OF WALK THROUGH THAT IN JUST A FEW MINUTES, A LITTLE BIT MORE DETAIL, BUT YOU'LL COME IN OFF IN THE MAIN ENTRANCE UP HERE, AND THEN ALL THE ANIMALS ARE KIND OF BE THE DOG AREAS FOR, TO BE KEPT IN THE BACK.

SO ANYWHERE WHERE YOU SEE THE PICTURE, THE DOG AND THE CAT KIND OF THROUGHOUT, THESE ARE A FEW RENDERINGS THAT WE'VE DONE.

SO AGAIN, THIS IS KIND OF TIED BACK INTO SOME SIMILARITY OF THE JUSTICE CENTER, BUT A LITTLE BIT MORE OF THE MODERN ASPECTS IS GOING TO BE FUN COLORS, VERY INVITING TONS OF NATURAL DAYLIGHTING WITHIN THE SPACE.

UM, THE AREA THAT YOU SEE IN FRONT ADOPT, THIS HAS GOT TO BE A LARGE PLAY YARD DIRECTLY BACK BEHIND.

SO ONCE YOU PULL UP, YOU'LL BE ABLE TO SEE THROUGH THOSE TRANSPARENT PANELS TO SEE THE ANIMALS PLAYING WITH THE PUBLIC.

IS IT JUST A FEW MORE VIEWS THAT WE HAVE IN THE SPACE? SO THESE ARE NOT USE THAT ARE LIT SKILL WELL LIT A FRONT ENTRY AREA WITH A LOT OF BRIGHT COLORS.

THIS IS A VIEW OF THE FACILITY.

AND WHEN YOU'RE COMING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, THIS WOULD BE THE FUTURE SIGNAGE ROAD LOCATION.

SO YOU WILL SEE SIGNAGE DIRECTLY OFF OF THERE WITH THE F ROCKET TO THAT FLIGHT ART AGAIN, JUST ANOTHER NIGHT VIEW.

SO WHEN YOU AREN'T COMING THERE, THE FACILITY WILL BE WELL LIT.

WELL IN ADVANCE.

I WANT YOU TO TELL THE CRACKS OF THE ROADWAY.

YEAH, WE TRY TO MAKE THEM AS REALISTIC AS POSSIBLE FOR AIDS, EVEN WITH THE HIGHER GRASS.

SO, AND THIS IS A VIEW OF WHEN YOU'RE COMING IN A LITTLE CLOSER AND SO THIS WILL BE THOSE PLAY YARDS.

SO THE PUBLIC CAN COME IN, YOU KNOW, MEET THEIR FOREVER FAMILY MEMBER WHERE THEY TAKE THEM HOME, MAKE SURE THEY HAVE ALL, THEY CAN BRING THE ANIMALS TO MAKE SURE THEY'RE ALL COMPATIBLE WITH THEIR OWN FAMILY MEMBER.

WHEN YOU COME INTO THIS SPACE, WE WANT TO MAKE IT AS WELCOMING WELL LIT FOR THE CONFLICT.

WE COULDN'T.

THE SEPARATION OF THE PUBLIC PARTS OF ANIMALS ARE SACRED ANIMALS AS WELL AS PARENTS.

UM, THAT WILL BE, UH, THE PROPER HPAC WITHIN THOSE 400% OUTSIDE AIR EXCHANGES, EVERYTHING THAT YOU NEED, OUR MODERN DAY FACILITY ALMOND COUNTY WILL HAVE IN THEIR FACILITY.

AND THESE ARE JUST SOME OTHER VIEWS LOOKING INTO SOME OF THE CAT ROOMS, THE CATS, THEY LOVE BASKING IN THE SUNLIGHT THAT WILL BE FLOODING INTO THE SPACE.

AND THESE WILL BE THE LOBBY AREAS.

YOU'LL HAVE A CAT ADOPTION AREAS AS SOON AS YOU'VE WALKED IN.

SO THOSE WILL BE ON HIGH DISPLAY AREAS.

AND THIS IS JUST ANOTHER VIEW OF THAT FRONT LOBBY AREA WITH A RECEPTION COUNTER.

SO THE PUBLIC I WORK CLOSELY WITH THIS IS THE VITAL SIGN.

THIS IS A SIGN OF ONE OF THE CAMERAS, JUST TO SHOW HOW YOU CAN INCORPORATE SOME OF THE CAST KIND OF LOUNGING AROUND, UH, JUST IN SOME OF THOSE BUICK LINDA'S GET IN SOME OF THE NATURAL DAY LIGHTING.

AND ALL THE FINISHES IN HERE ARE NOT EASY TO CLEAN, EASY TO DISSEMINATE, PRETTY SIMPLE FOR TODAY'S PRESENTATION, BUT IF YOU HAVE ANY, CAMERA'S DONE A GREAT JOB OF WORKING WITH THE DATA ARCHITECT PROJECT.

WE'RE THE WAY THIS IS WORKED OUT IS CONSTRUCTION WILL ACTUALLY TAKE PLACE AT THE SAME TIME.

THERE'S NEW CONSTRUCTION AT THE JUSTICE CENTER.

SO YOU'RE EXPECTING NUMBERS YET.

WE'RE EXPECTING REALLY GET A LOT OF BENEFIT OF HAVING ALL THE SITE WORK DONE.

CONTRACTOR, UH, YOU MAKE ALL THE TRADES WILL PROBABLY BE THE SAME AT THE SAME TIME, SO WE CAN GET A REALLY WITH THE PROJECT IS PARTICULARLY OPTIONS.

SO IF Y'ALL HAVE QUESTIONS, I THINK IT'S A, I THINK IT'S AN IMPORTANT ONE THAT ADOPTION CENTERS REALLY GOING TO BE A GREAT ADDITION TO THE COUNTY'S CAPABILITIES SINCE WE PAY A LOT OF MONEY FOR ANIMAL SERVICES THAT IN CONTRACTS NOW ALSO THAT JUST PICK YOUR POINTS OUT, EXPANDS OUR ABILITY TO THE CATS AS WELL, WHICH WE DON'T REALLY HAVE THE CAPABILITY TO DO ADDRESS ME.

SO IT'S REALLY, REALLY A NICE FEELING.

YOU'LL BE ABLE TO HOUSE UP FOR 60 CATS WITHIN THIS FACILITY, AND WE'RE THE LOVER 12,000 SQUARE FEET PROTECTED.

AND I THINK, UH, AS A JUDGE ALWAYS POINTS OUT THAT THE REALLY SIGNIFICANT FINGER COVER IS THAT THIS WHOLE SYSTEM REALLY OPERATES BASED ON VOLUNTEERS AND COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT.

SO WE WANT TO KEEP THAT IN FRONT OF THE COMMUNITY, THEY KNOW THAT THEY ARE AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE

[00:10:01]

SUCCESS BRAYLIN SKIING ON THE GAME.

NO, I JUST, WHEN YOU MENTIONED THAT LANCE IS HERE AND HE REPRESENT OUR CONSTRUCTION MANAGER AGENT, HE WAS ALSO HERE IN LINE, HAD ANY QUESTIONS.

WE ARE GETTING THIS OUT JUSTICE AND FOR AN AGENT HAVE WORKED AT THE END, WHICH HAS BEEN GREAT.

THERE ARE ARCHITECTS THAT IT'S BEEN A GOOD PROCESS FOR BOTH.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

I'M GONNA, I'M GONNA MOVE, UH, IF IT'S OKAY, I'LL SEE MR. SLY ON THE FUNCTION COFFER HERE.

I'M GOING TO MOVE THEM UP AND WE CAN KEEP OUR BODY CAM JUST A LITTLE BIT HERE.

SO THIS CAN

[Items 22 & 23]

BE EITHER 22 AND 20 SLIDING TO REMIND YOU THAT WE WERE GOING TO BE UP AT THE CONFERENCE.

PLAN HAS BEEN APPROVED, WE HAVE SINCE THEN GONE OUT TO THE VARYING, UH, GOVERNMENTAL AGENCIES AND ASKED FOR YOUR PARTICIPATION.

AND I FORGOT MY LENS THAT HAD COME, WAS TO FIND, GOT IT.

DO YOU MIND IF I STAY IN? OKAY.

SO THANK YOU AGAIN FOR, UH, SEEING AND HEARING ME, I BROUGHT A NON TOURAJ THIS MORNING.

CAUSE THE LAST TIME DIDN'T GO SO WELL.

UH, SO I'D LIKE TO INTRODUCE THOSE GUYS BEFORE I GET STARTED.

I'VE GOT FOUR OR FIVE SLIDES, UH, BEFORE I DO, UH, I WANT TO INTRODUCE YOU TO THE PRESIDENT CEO OF CEDAR CEDAR CREST DEVELOPMENT, UH, DR.

DAVID, DR.

DAVID WILLIS, DR.

DAVID WILLIS, THE ARCHITECT AND HIS TEAM IS TYLER ADAMS. HE'S THE GUY THAT PUT TOGETHER THAT VIDEO THAT YOU SAW THREE WEEKS AGO.

UH, AND BACK IN THE FAR CORNER IS MR. DAVID PETTIT, WHO IS ONE OF THE FOREMOST AUTHORITIES IN THE STATE RELATED TO CHURCHES AND HOW THEY WORK.

THERE HE IS.

HE AND I HAVE WORKED TOGETHER ON AT LEAST THREE DIFFERENT TERMS IS NOW, UH, SO IF THERE'S ANY KIND OF A QUESTION ABOUT HOW IT WORKS OR WHAT IT DOES, DAVID IS HERE TO ANSWER THOSE KINDS OF QUESTIONS.

WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO DO IS KIND OF GO THROUGH JUST A FEW SLIDES.

I'M NOT GOING TO BORE YOU WITH A BUNCH OF STUFF.

WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT OVERVIEW, THE CREATION, WHAT THIS PARTICULAR TERS IS DOING, AND I'LL OPEN IT UP FOR QUESTIONS.

AND THEN I'M GOING TO ASK, UH, DR.

WILLIS TO COME UP AND TALK FROM THE DEVELOPER'S PERSPECTIVE, BECAUSE WE DO HAVE SOME ISSUES GOING ON THERE.

OKAY? SO IN THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE, CHAPTER THREE 11, IT OUTLINES THE AUTHORITIES AND PRETTY SEIZURES FOR CREATING A TIP OR A TURBO TAX INCREMENT FINANCING, TAXING PERMIT REINVESTMENT ZONE.

UH, THERE IS TWO PRIMARY DOCUMENTS, THE CREATION ORDINANCE, AND THEN THE PROJECT AND FINANCING PLAN.

THE CREATION ORDINANCE ESTABLISHES THESE FIVE ELEMENTS, THE BOUNDARY OF THE TERM, THE BOARD, HOW MUCH THE CITY IS GOING TO PARTICIPATE.

AND THEN THE PRELIMINARY PROJECT AND FINANCING PLAN.

ONCE THAT ORDINANCE IS COMPLETE, THEN THE TERS BOARD CONVENES AND REVIEWS.

THE FINAL PROJECT FINANCING PLAN MAKES A TO THE COUNCIL.

AND NOW AS OF THE 28TH, SEPTEMBER, UH, THE ENTIRE CREATION ORDINANCE AND THE FINAL PROJECT AND FINANCING

[00:15:01]

THIS SHOULD BE ROUTINE FOR YOU GUYS.

YOU, I THINK YOU HAVE FOUR OR FIVE, SEPARATE IS IN THE COUNTY RIGHT NOW, ALL OF WHICH YOU PARTICIPATE AT 50% OF YOUR M AND O.

UH, AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE ASKING FOR TODAY.

YOU'VE SEEN THIS CHART.

THIS IS THE PROPO.

THIS, THIS IS NOT THE PROPOSED ANYMORE.

THIS IS THE TURN NUMBER TWO, A ZONE ENCOMPASSES ALL OF THAT PROPERTY.

THAT'S INCORPORATED IN THE RED AREA.

THERE THAT'S THAT'S BOUNDED BY THE STATE HIGHWAY 34 BYPASS SOUTH HOUSTON STREET IN SOUTH WASHINGTON TO INCLUDE THAT SMALL LITTLE TRIANGLE UP THERE IN THE TOP OF THAT CHART, WHICH IS THE TECH STOCK PROPERTY.

WHAT'S IMPORTANT ABOUT ALL OF THAT IS EVERY PIECE OF PROPERTY IN THAT BOUNDARY IS OWNED BY A GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY OR NONPROFIT AND ARE ALL TAX EXEMPT.

SO BASE YEAR FOR TERM, NUMBER TWO VALUE IS ZERO.

AND THAT'S GOING TO BE IMPORTANT BECAUSE AS YOU KNOW, TERS IS, AND TIFS, TIF FUNDS GROW AS A RESULT OF PRIVATE DEVELOPMENT.

AND AS THAT INCREMENT GROWS, YOU BUMPED IT UP AGAINST THE BASE YEAR AND ALL OF THAT INCREMENT THEN AS APPLIED TO THAT TIP FUND TO PAY FOR PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS.

ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THAT? THE CITY OWNS THAT 54 ACRE TRACK RIGHT THERE ON THE WHAT AND WHAT IS THAT? THE SOUTH END TYLER IS THAT SOUTH END, THAT PARTICULAR PROPERTY HAS ME COMPLETELY CONFUSED.

DIRECTIONALLY.

I'M PRETTY GOOD AT MY DIRECTIONS, BUT THERE'S A BIG TURN IN THAT BYPASS.

IT REALLY CONFUSES THE HECK OUT OF ME.

UM, WE HAVE GOT A TON OF POTENTIAL PROJECT DEVELOPMENT GOING ON RIGHT THERE, AND, AND THE CITY HAS ALREADY AGREED AND ENTERED INTO A, UH, DEVELOPERS INCENTIVE AGREEMENT THAT BASICALLY SUBORDINATES THAT ENTIRE DIRT TRACK THAT 54 ACRES TO THE DEVELOPER IN WHICH HE IS GOING TO COME BACK IN AND BUILD WHAT YOU SEE THERE.

AND IT, AND IT'S MULTICOLORED BECAUSE THAT HAPPENS TO BE THE PHASING THAT THEY'RE DOING, THE RED AND THE ORANGE ARE PHASE ONE, THE GREEN PHASE TWO PHASE THREE IS THE PURPLE.

AND FINALLY THE, THE RESIDENTIAL COMPONENT WILL BE THE LAST SPACE UP IN THE SHADED AREA.

YOU'LL SEE, TO GIVE YOU SOME POINT OF REFERENCE.

THAT'S THE EXISTING COUNTY BARN OR NUT COUNTY BARN.

I'M SORRY, THE, WELL, NO, THE SHOW, THIS IS THE SHOW BARN UP IN THIS AREA RIGHT HERE.

UM, PEOPLE CALL IT DIFFERENT THINGS, BUT YEAH, THAT'S, THAT KIND OF GIVES YOU A FLAVOR OF WHAT THAT 54 ACRE TRACK IS.

AND THAT'S WHAT THE FOCUS IS RIGHT NOW.

THE ZONE, IF I GO BACK ONE, THE ZONE INCLUDES ALL OF THE COUNTY PROPERTY WHERE THE, THE, UH, THE JAIL RESIDES, UM, THE POOR FARM IS THERE.

THE SHOW BARN IS THERE.

UM, IT INCLUDES THE LIBRARY, THE APPRAISAL DISTRICT, THE CHILDREN'S HOME THERE, AND OF COURSE, STEP STONE, OKAY.

UP ON THE DOT.

THIS IS WHAT THEY'RE PLANNING TO DO.

AND WHEN, AND THE BOTTOM LINE IS THEY'RE GOING TO THEIR PROPOSAL, BUT $101 MILLION OF NEW INVESTMENT INTO THIS COMMUNITY, INTO THAT ZONE, ALL OF IT IS PRIVATE.

THAT ATHLETIC COMPLEX IS NOT A PUBLIC PRIVATE DEAL.

IT IS PRIVATE.

IT'S GOING TO, IT'S GOING TO BE TAXED AS PRIVATE AND WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT OVER THE NEXT SIX YEARS, SEVEN YEARS THROUGH 2027.

AND THAT'S A PRETTY AGGRESSIVE TIMEFRAME.

SO IF IT EXTENDS TO 2030, IT WOULDN'T SURPRISE ME.

BUT THE, BUT THE REALITY IS, UH, THE DEVELOPER SEEMS TO THINK THAT HE CAN GET THIS DEAL DONE AND PUT $101 MILLION OF NEW INVESTMENT ON THE GROUND RIGHT HERE IN KAUFMAN.

HAD THIS BRIEFING AND THEY ARE CONSIDERING A VERY SIMILAR INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT ON THE 26TH OF OCTOBER TO PARTICIPATE AT 50% OF THEIR M AND A, WHICH IS THEIR ENTIRE TAX RATE, BY THE WAY.

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN TO US? I'VE HIGHLIGHTED IT.

THE CITY IS PARTICIPATING AT 75% OF THEIR M AND O.

WE'RE ASKING THE COUNTY TO PARTICIPATE AT 50% OF THEIR M AND O TRINITY VALLEY COMMUNITY COLLEGE HAS

[00:20:01]

MY DEVELOPMENT TEAM PROBABLY HAS OVER 200 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE.

75, 50 AND 50 OF THE THREE TAXING JURISDICTIONS.

AND FOR THOSE WHO ARE WONDERING WHERE'S THE SCHOOL DISTRICT, THE SCHOOL CAN'T AND BY LAW PARTICIPANT.

SO WHAT DOES THAT MEAN IF ALL OF THAT DEVELOPMENT OCCURS OVER THAT TIMEFRAME OVER A 31 YEAR PERIOD, THIS TERS IS A 31 YEAR WAS ESTABLISHED FOR A 31 YEAR PERIOD.

IF ALL OF THAT HAPPENS, YOU CAN SEE FOR THE CITY OF KAUFMAN COUNTY AND T V TVCC, THE TOTAL TAXES GENERATED OVER THAT SAME PERIOD OF TIME, HOW MUCH WOULD BE ALLOCATED AT THAT 50% THRESHOLD THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT AND WHAT THE NET BENEFIT IS TO THE COUNTY.

IN OTHER WORDS, IF I LOOK AT THAT 15 SEVEN 75 NUMBER, THAT'S THE TOTAL TAXES OVER 31 YEAR PERIOD, BY PARTICIPATING AT 50%, YOU WOULD GET SIX, YOU WOULD PARTICIPATE AT SIX AND A HALF MILLION DOLLARS AND END UP NETTING OVER THAT SAME 31 YEAR PERIOD, $9.2 MILLION IN RETAIL PROPERTY TAX TOO.

SO WE'RE TALKING ABOUT CONTRIBUTING DOLLAR FUTURE DOLLARS THAT YOU DON'T GET RIGHT NOW.

AND WON'T GET, IF WE DON'T GET THIS DEVELOPMENT GOING RIGHT.

SO WE'RE ASKING YOU TO PARTICIPATE.

AND THE, AND THE TIF THEN IS FUNDED AT 23, ALMOST 23 AND A HALF MILLION DOLLARS OVER THAT 31 YEAR PERIOD, TIF MONEY CAN ONLY BE SPENT FOR PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS PERIOD, INTO STATEMENT.

THAT'S THE ONLY THING THE LAB THE LAW ALLOWS FOR.

AND YOU CAN SEE THAT WE'VE IDENTIFIED THOSE PROJECT COSTS RELATED TO INFRASTRUCTURE TO OPEN SPACE.

DO YOU TELL, IS THE STREET LIGHTING? THERE'S SOME, A LITTLE BIT OF MONEY FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT GRANTS.

IF WE HAVE TO ENCOURAGE A HOTEL TO COME IN, WE'VE GOT A LITTLE BIT OF MONEY FOR THAT.

AND THEN THE ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS TO ACTUALLY MANAGE THE TIF $23.4 MILLION OVER 31 YEAR PERIOD.

THAT'S AN OVERVIEW.

THERE'S A WHOLE LOT MORE TO IT, BUT YOU GUYS, YOU GUYS ARE PROBABLY AS EXPERT AS I AM WITH TURKERS AND TITS.

SO I, WASN'T GOING TO BORE YOU WITH ALL OF THE INFORMATION.

I KNOW YOU'VE GOT A HUGE AGENDA TODAY.

WHAT ARE YOUR QUESTIONS? IF YOU DON'T HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I'D LIKE TO INTRODUCE DR.

WILLIS TO COME UP AS THE DEVELOPER AND KIND OF GIVE YOU HIS TAKE ON THIS PARTICULAR PROJECT, AT LEAST INTRODUCE YOU TO THE MAN AND THE TEAM THAT IS DOING THIS THING.

HE'S VERY EXCITED TO GET GOING AND VERY EXCITED ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT AS WEAPON DR.

WILLIS, WHY CALL HIM BY ONE OF YOUR QUESTIONS? RIGHT? I'M DR.

DAVID WALLACE.

I'M A DEVELOPER, I'M THE CEO CEDAR CREST DEVELOPMENT COMPANY.

WE'RE LOCATED AT 14, 12 MAIN STREET, DALLAS, TEXAS.

UM, MY FIRST CAME OUT HERE.

I WAS VERY EXCITED WHEN I MET MIKE BECAUSE OF THE ENTHUSIASM AND THE PROBABILITY OF GROWING KAUFMAN.

IF YOU LOOK AT CITIES LIKE LONDON, IT'S A DESTINATION.

AND WHEN I TALKED TO MY INVESTORS, ONE HAS ALREADY AGREED TO 155 MILLION INVESTMENT.

THE OTHER ONE HAS ALREADY AGREED TO HAVE THEM 266 MILLION BECAUSE THEY SEE THAT ATHLETICS AND SPORTS ARE MOVING TO A HIGHER LEVEL.

AND THAT THERE'S PARTICIPATION WE HAVE RIGHT NOW, THE NBA, I MET THIS PAST WEEKEND WITH SAM PERKINS.

YOU'VE PLAYED WITH THE DALLAS MAVERICKS.

HE'S THE SPOKESPERSON FOR THE NBA.

I HAVEN'T EVEN TOLD YOU THAT THEY'RE COMING.

WE'VE ALSO COMMUNICATION WITH NIKE TO COME HERE AS WELL.

SO WE'RE TURNING INTO A DESTINATION.

WE FEEL WITH THE DEVELOPMENT, WHICH MIKE WAS DISCUSSING, THAT WE CAN GENERATE OVER 325 JOBS HERE.

WE CAN BRING INTO THE ECONOMY MARKET VALUE AS WELL.

WE ARE COMPETITIVE ON MY DEVELOPMENT TEAM RIGHT NOW.

WE HAVE AZTEC OMEGA, WHICH IS A $200 MILLION COMPANY.

THEY'RE ALSO PART OF MY CEDAR CREST DEVELOPMENT.

UH, WE HAVE A CEO, WELL, CHAIRMAN OF MY BOARD, IT'S MY CAR.

MY CAR IS AT HOME 50 RESTAURANTS.

AND HE'S PLANNING ON BRINGING A FEW OF HIS RESTAURANTS HERE AS WELL.

I HADN'T TOLD YOU THAT AS WELL.

[00:25:02]

I GOT TYLER, ADAM, MY ARCHITECT.

WE'RE ALSO GOING TO PARTNER WITH O'BRIEN ARCHITECT.

NOW, IF YOU DON'T KNOW BRIAN ARCHITECT, THEY DID YOUR MYSTAR, THEY'RE COMING TO CALL.

SO WE HAVE INVESTED.

WE WILL INVEST THE MONEY.

UH, WE WILL STAY AS CLOSE AS WE CAN TO THE TIMETABLE.

UH, THIS IS A DESTINATION POINT AND I'M EXCITED ABOUT COMMENT.

UH, JUST TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE BIT BACK.

MY BACKGROUND I USED TO TEACH AT WEST TEXAS STATE UNIVERSITY WAS DALLAS, TEXAS A AND M.

I SERVED FOR THE LAST, UH, THREE YEARS AS THE PAST PRESIDENT OF THE NATIONAL ALUMNI ASSOCIATION, SOME 80,000 STUDENTS.

AND WE HAVE DEVELOPED THAT SEAT ACROSS DEVELOPMENT, RIGHT AT $450 MILLION.

AND IF YOU GO TO MY WEBSITE, WHICH IS CEDAR CREST DEVELOPMENT, CEO.COM, YOU CAN SEE MY TEAM.

YOU CAN SEE THE PEOPLE THAT WE WORK WITH, BUT THE KEY HERE IS I BELIEVE IN THE KIDS.

I THINK FIND THE THINGS THAT WE NEED TO DO WITH CHILDREN, ESPECIALLY BETWEEN THE HOURS OF THREE AND SEVEN, THEY NEED SOMETHING TO DO.

SO WE'RE GOING TO HAVE AN AFTER SCHOOL TUTORING AND MENTOR PROGRAMS THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE DOING BECAUSE THE KIDS SO IMPORTANT, GET THEM OFF THE STREETS.

I'M NOT SAYING THAT KAUFFMAN HAS A PROBLEM, BUT THEY NEED SOMETHING TO DO.

THEY REALLY DO.

I TAUGHT AT WEST TEXAS STATE WHEN I WAS 26 YEARS OLD, HOW WERE THE HEAD MEN AND WOMEN'S TRACK COACH, THEIR DIVISION ONE SCHOOL.

AND I BROUGHT MY TEAMS IN THE TOP THREE AND MY CONFERENCE FOR THE SIX YEARS THAT I WAS THERE.

I ALSO WAS ON THE OLYMPIC DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE FOR THE 84 GAMES IN LOS ANGELES.

ONE DAY, THE CAPITOL, I'M GOING TO HAVE TAGLINE, JUST A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME.

I COME FROM A FAMILY OF 12 AND ONE FOR ATHLETICS GOT ME AT THE COLLEGE AND IT GAVE ME AN OPPORTUNITY TO BECOME A PHD.

AND I LIKE TO SEE MORE KIDS FOLLOW THAT PATH.

UM, I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE I CAN SAY, BUT YOU GOT ANY QUESTIONS? UH, UH, DR.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? I GOT ONE QUESTION LIKE COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO WHEN WE WERE FIRST, CONSIDERING THIS, WE WERE AT ONE POINT WE WERE TALKING ABOUT A 60 TO 65% PARTICIPATION.

IS TO GET THAT SOUTH POINT DEVELOPMENT, THAT 54 ACRES ON THE GROUND, UH, I'M MORE THAN HAPPY, MORE THAN HAPPY FOR YOU TO CONSIDER A HIGHER PERCENTAGE.

AND I KNOW YOU HAD A MEETING, BUT I NEVER REALLY GOT THE RESULTS OTHER THAN INFORMALLY AT THAT MEETING.

WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT MEETING? UH, YOU'RE EXACTLY RIGHT.

WE MET AT CITY HALL WITH REBECCA AND REBECCA HERE.

THIS IS HER LAST DAY.

I WANT HER TO SAY GOODBYE.

IT'S BEEN A PLEASURE WORKING WITH REBECCA BY THE WAY.

NOT THAT IT MATTERS HERE, BUT WE MET, WE WENT THROUGH THE PARTICULARS OF THE ILA.

WE WERE STILL ENCOURAGING 60% PARTICIPATION BECAUSE FRANKLY, THAT ZONE INCLUDES ALL OF THAT PROPERTY THAT YOU OWN.

AND, UH, TYLER, UH, I SHARED WITH YOU THREE WEEKS AGO, THAT VIDEO, THAT TYLER COMPRISED AND ALL OF THAT, THAT YOU SAW WITH COUNTY IMPROVEMENTS, THE POOR FARM DOES THE SHOW BARN OR THE RODEO ARENA, WHATEVER GOES IN THERE IS COUNTY OWN.

RIGHT? AND AS A CONSEQUENCE, I KNEW THAT YOU WERE, YOUR STANDARD HAS ALWAYS BEEN 50%, BUT BECAUSE THERE WAS SO MUCH POTENTIAL FOR COUNTING IMPROVEMENTS TO COUNTY OWNED FACILITIES, I WAS ASKING FOR 60%, THE DISCUSSION WAS ASKING, UH, COMMISSIONER HUNT ASKED FOR SOME GUARANTEES, THE ONLY GUARANTEE AND UTTERS WORLD IS THAT THERE'S NO GUARANTEES.

IF THERE'S NO INCREMENT THAT HAPPENS AS A RESULT OF WHAT, UH, DR.

WILLIS IS PROPOSING TO DATE, THERE IS NO MONEY, SO THERE'S NO GUARANTEE.

AND SO, SO I JUST SAID, LISTEN, DO YOUR 50% AND WE'LL JUST CALL IT GOOD.

AND THAT'S HOW THAT WENT.

I THINK WE ALL UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT DOESN'T KILL THEM, GUARANTEES THAT IT WOULD BE ADDRESSED WHEN TO DEVELOP INCOME AND NOT A YEAR 30 OR 30.

RIGHT? SO THAT'S THE ONLY DISAGREEMENT I HAVE A BUNCH OF, WE UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPT AND HOW IT WORKS.

CAUSE WE DO A LOT OF THINGS, BUT WE JUST WANT TO YOU, IS THAT SOMETHING THAT WOULD BE DONE IN A TIMELY MANNER IN WHILE THE GROWTH WAS GOING IN? WE'RE TALKING ABOUT PRETTY MUCH.

AND THE LAWYER SEEMED TO HAVE PUT MONEY TO WORK NOW, BUT YOU KNOW, IT IS WHAT IT IS, WHAT HAPPENED IN ORDER TO MOVE THE BALL FORWARD.

OUR FOCUS RIGHT NOW

[00:30:01]

HERE'S HERE'S WHAT I CAN TELL IS THAT WE'RE GOING TO WORK LIKE THE DICKENS BECAUSE THAT MAN RIGHT THERE IS JUST AS EXCITED ABOUT THE REST OF THAT PROPERTY.

YOU OWN THAT THE COUNTY OWNS AS HE IS ABOUT THE 54 ACRES OF THE CITY.

HE WOULD LIKE TO DO THE WHOLE KITTEN CABOODLE, BUT IT'S GOING TO REQUIRE THE CITY AND THE COUNTY TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO THAT BECAUSE YOU GUYS ARE NOT IN THE DEVELOPMENT BUSINESS.

LIKE WE ARE, WE'VE GOT TOOLS AT OUR DISPOSAL THAT YOU DON'T.

SO PUTTING THAT HARD CORNER UP THERE AS AN EXAMPLE AT WASHINGTON AND IN SOUTH HOUSTON, GETTING THAT HARD CORNER, THAT'S JUST A VACANT PROPERTY RIGHT NOW REALLY NEEDS TO BE IN THE CITY'S COFFERS.

WE NEED TO SWAP LAND OR WHATEVER WE CAN DO TO ARRANGE THAT SO THAT WE CAN USE THAT PROPERTY AS INCENTIVE TO, TO BRING THE DEVELOPER IN AND GET IT DONE.

AND THIS IS THE DEVELOPER THAT ONCE IT'S DONE.

SO IF THERE'S OTHER HURDLES THAT HAVE TO BE OVERCOME IN ORDER TO GET THAT DEAL DONE, AND I DID NOT WANT TO STOP THE 54 ACRE PROCESS IN THE, IN THE MEANTIME.

SO I SUSPECT THAT WE CAN DO THAT.

I HOPE THAT WE CAN DO THAT BECAUSE IT'S, YOU SAW THE VIDEO, PEOPLE ARE GENUINELY EXCITED ABOUT THE IDEA OF MAKING IMPROVEMENTS TO THE POOR POCKET, MAKING IMPROVEMENTS TO THE SHOW BALL, UH, TAKING THAT OLD JAIL FACILITY AND DOING SOMETHING DIFFERENT WITH IT AND MAKING IT BETTER FOR OUR COMMUNITY AND FOR THE COUNTY.

BUT IT'S JUST GOING TO TAKE THE COUNTY AND THE CITY TO FIGURE OUT HOW DO WE DO THAT? YOU HAVE SOME OTHER THINGS THAT YOU WANT TO GET DONE, AND WE HAVE PROPERTY THAT MIGHT BE ABLE TO ACCOMMODATE THAT, BUT THAT HASN'T OCCURRED.

SO IN ORDER TO CONTINUE TO MAKE THIS PROCESS MOVE FORWARD, I AGREED TO DROP IT DOWN TO 50%.

LET'S GET IT DONE, YOU KNOW, AND YOU KNOW, WHEN IT COMES TIME TO DOING THE PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS ON THE COUNTY, I'M NOT GOING TO STOP THAT TRAIN.

YOU GUYS WILL HAVE TWO REPRESENTATIVES ON THAT TURKEY BOWL.

IF IT MAKES SENSE, IT'S GOING TO GET DONE.

WE, WE ALL WANT THE SAME THING, RIGHT? IT'S JUST TOO, THERE'S, THERE'S SOME SIGNIFICANT HURDLES THAT HAVE TO BE OVERCOME IN ORDER FOR A DEVELOPER TO COME IN AND START DOING SOME MEANINGFUL PLANNING AND COSTING AND DESIGN WORK FOR THAT PROPERTY TO BE DEVELOPED.

THAT MAKES SENSE THAT YOU DISAGREED WITH THERE.

NO, NO, NO, NO.

I MEAN, YOU KNOW, ME, I'D ALREADY SAID IT DOES.

IT DOES MAKE SENSE, MIKE.

UH, AND, AND JUST LET ME SAY TO, YOU KNOW, I SUPPORT THE TERMS, I SUPPORT THAT PRINCIPLE.

I, UH, I'M A, I'M A HUGE BELIEVER IN DESIRABLE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, BUT, UH, JUST AS YOU, YOUR RESPONSIBILITY IS TO LOOK OUT FOR THE BEST INTEREST OF THE CITY OF KAUFFMAN.

THE COMMISSIONER'S COURT IS, IS, UH, REALLY CHARGED TO LOOK OUT FOR THE BEST INTERESTS OF THE COUNTY AS WELL.

SO, UH, YOU'RE EXACTLY RIGHT THAT, UH, THIS IS, UH, IT'S A, UH, THIS IS A HUGE DEVELOPMENT.

IT'S A HUGE NEGOTIATION, IF YOU WILL, UH, IT'S YOU NEED, UM, AND I KNOW THAT, UH, WE HAVE, UH, WE HAVE ALWAYS HAD A, UH, HISTORICALLY KIND OF A 50% SORT OF A GIVEN PARTICIPATION.

UH, I THINK THAT THIS IS A PARTICULARLY UNIQUE DEVELOPMENT SINCE I NEVER, BEFORE HAS THE COUNTY OWNED SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF PROPERTY THAT ARE IMMEDIATELY ADJACENT TO A PARTICULAR CHURCH, SO THAT I THINK THAT'S A UNIQUE THING FOR THE COUNTY AS WELL.

I THINK IT, UH, IT GIVES THE COUNTY SOME OPPORTUNITY JUST AS YOU POINT OUT TO, UH, TO EXAMINE ITS POTENTIAL, UH, FOR SOME OF THOSE PROPERTIES THAT WE PROBABLY, UH, WOULD BE WELL DIVESTED, UH, IN LIEU OF SOME OTHER PROPERTIES AND SOME OTHER RESOURCES THAT THIS COUNTY CLEARLY NEEDS.

SO, UH, UH, I THINK THAT'S WHY THIS IS A BIT UNIQUE.

AND AGAIN, I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU UNDERSTAND, I, I, UH, UH, I'M, UH, I'M IN FAVOR OF THE JURORS.

UH, ACTUALLY I'M NOT MARRIED TO 50%.

I, I WAS NOT OPPOSED TO A HIGHER PERCENTAGE BECAUSE I REALLY DO THINK THAT DOWNEY HAS THE POTENTIAL TO, UH, TO REALLY IMPROVE ITS STANDING IN A LOT OF AREAS, UH, PARTICULARLY, UH, UH, RELATED TO SOME, UM, UNFUNDED NEEDS THAT THE COUNTY HAS RIGHT NOW, SUCH AS OUR JUVENILE ON POTENTIAL JUVENILE DETENTION CENTER.

AND, UH,

[00:35:01]

UH, AS YOU SAW EARLIER, OUR DEVELOPMENT OUT THERE BY THE JAIL, UH, I THINK WE'VE TALKED ABOUT IN THIS BODY PREVIOUSLY THAT SOME ADDITIONAL ACREAGE OUT THERE, UM, MIGHT HAVE MADE IT EASIER TO DESIGN PROCESS MIGHT STILL MAKE IT A LITTLE EASIER DESIGN PROCESS.

UH, SO, UH, I ALSO KNOW THAT IN YOUR JAR THAT WHAT USED TO BE TURNED TO COUNTY PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS THAT THAT'S THAT'S IN ESSENCE GONE AWAY NOW.

SO THOSE WERE DOWN.

LET ME, LET ME SHOW ME THAT PROPOSED PROJECT COST.

IF YOU LOOK AT YOUR OLD ONE THAT HAD $4.1 MILLION IN THERE FOR COUNTY IMPROVEMENTS, WHEN WE BACKED IT DOWN TO 50% PARTICIPATION, I JUST FOLDED IT INTO OPEN SPACE AND PARK AND RECORD.

I DIDN'T HIGHLIGHT COUNTY SPECIFIC IMPROVEMENTS, UH, BUT THE MONEY IS THERE HONESTLY, FOR THE PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS THAT I NEED FOR OPEN SPACE AND PARKS AND REC FACILITIES THAT ARE IN THAT CONCEPT PLAN THAT I SHOWED YOU, I NEED PROBABLY TWO TO TWO AND A HALF MILLION DOLLARS.

SO THERE'S MORE MONEY AVAILABLE TO IT, BUT THAT MONEY IS ALLOWABLE TO BE USED ANYWHERE IN THAT ZONE.

SO IT'S NOT SAYING THAT WE CAN'T DO IT THURSDAY.

I UNDERSTAND.

UH, AND I, AND I REALLY DO MIKE, I APPRECIATE YOUR COMMITMENT TO, UH, LOOKING OUT FOR THE COUNTY, BUT, UH, I MEAN LET'S FACE IT, ALL OF US COME AND GO.

SO, YOU KNOW, 31 YEARS, YOU PROBABLY WON'T BE STANDING HERE.

UH, I, I JUST WOULD LIKE TO SUGGEST THAT WE DELAY THIS BOAT FOR TWO WEEKS, FOR THE COMMISSIONERS TO HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY, UH, WHICH WE REALLY HAVEN'T DONE.

UH, UH, I WAS A LITTLE SURPRISED THAT WE DIDN'T SCHEDULE IT EXECUTIVE SESSION ABOUT THIS, UH, AN OPPORTUNITY TO DISCUSS THE, THE, THE LONG RANGE IMPACTS ON THIS DEVELOPMENT RELATIVE TO THE ADJACENT COUNTY PROPERTIES.

I JUST THINK THAT, UH, A TWO WEEK DISCUSSION PERIOD TO REALLY ENSURE THAT WE ARE, UM, UH, THAT WE ARE REALLY MOVING IN THE ABSOLUTE BEST DIRECTION FOR THE COUNTY IS NOT UNREASONABLE.

SO, UM, AND AGAIN, DON'T, DON'T TAKE THAT.

DON'T READ ANYTHING INTO THAT.

I ABSOLUTELY SUPPORT THE TERMS. I SUPPORT YOUR DEVELOPMENT AND, UH, UM, UH, YOU CAN TAKE MY PERSONAL INSURANCE.

I'M COMMITTED TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN, UH, ONE WAY OR THE OTHER.

BUT I REALLY DO THINK THAT THERE ARE SOME, SOME UNKNOWNS HERE.

SOME, UH, EVEN, EVEN, UH, IF YOU WILL LACKING AN AGREEMENT IN PRINCIPLE, IF NOT IN KIND, UH, WITH, WITH WHAT, UM, WHAT THE COUNTY'S POSITION IS GOING TO BE WHEN THIS DEVELOPMENT IS FINALLY SIGNED ON THE DOTTED LINE, WHAT I WOULD ASK YOU TO CONSIDER, UH, UM, UM, TODAY, TODAY IN OUR LOCAL AGREEMENT WOULD ONLY ASK THAT YOU TREAT THIS PARTICULAR CURVE.

LIKE YOU TREATED EVERY OTHER TERS IN THE COUNTY.

THAT'S NOT TO SAY IT CAN'T BE AMENDED.

IF, IF YOU WANT TO HAVE THAT DISCUSSION.

THE REASON I SAY THAT IS BECAUSE HIS, HIS FINANCIER, UH, THEY HAVE DROPPED, THEY'VE ALREADY DROPPED THEIR PLANS FOR, UH, INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENTS.

THERE'S CIVIL PLANES.

WE'RE REVIEWING THEM AS WE SPEAK.

I DON'T WANT TO DELAY THIS THING.

HE W HE'S BUSY.

HE'S, HE'S TRYING TO GET DIRT TURNING.

THERE'S NOTHING THAT WOULD PREVENT YOU FROM COMING BACK AND AMENDING THAT PROJECT COMPANY PLAN.

I UNDERSTAND THAT, UH, AND THAT YOU WANT TO GO FORWARD AND, AND, UH, MMM.

UM, I ACTUALLY FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT AN EXTRA TWO WEEKS WOULD BE TWO WEEKS FATAL A DELAY, BUT I I'M, I REALLY AM JUST NOT COMFORTABLE THAT WE IN THE COUNTY HAVE YET FULLY EXPLORED THE IMPACT THAT IS HERS.

AND IT IS, UH HUH.

ASIDE FROM THE TYPICAL 50%, IT IS UNIQUE IN THAT, AT LEAST IN MY EXPERIENCE, WE'VE NEVER HAD SO MUCH.

WE ACTUALLY HAVE, I THINK, FIVE ADJACENT PARCELS OF PROPERTY OR CLOSE PROXIMITY PARCELS THAT I THINK REALLY WARRANT DISCUSSION BY THE COMMISSIONERS COURT TO ENSURE THAT WE ARE MAXIMIZING THE POTENTIAL FOR THE VOTERS OF COLOR, THE COUNTY MOUNT ADDRESS.

THEN THERE MIGHT BE A MUTE DEAL TOO, BUT DEBRA, IT NEEDS TO, IN THE SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION ON THIS TF, THERE'S TWO DIFFERENT DEALS IN THE SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION THAT WE GOT RECEIVED IN OUR PACKET.

ONE OF THEM TALKS ABOUT THE 60% DEAL.

I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE 25%.

SO IT'S LIKE DOUBLE ONE, THERE'S TWO

[00:40:01]

DIFFERENT.

DOES THAT MAKE ANY KIND OF EFFECT ON, I THINK THAT THERE'S A DISCREPANCY IN THE DOCUMENTS AS TO WHAT'S BEEN PRESENTED AND WHAT'S BEEN PRESENTED HERE.

SO I THINK WE NEED TO GET THAT STRAIGHTENED DOWN BEFORE WE START.

WHAT DO YOU, WHAT DOCUMENTS ARE LOCAL? WELL, IT'S THE SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION PAGE 88, 89 OR DIFFERENT THAN , THERE'S TWO DIFFERENT DEALS.

IT'S LIKE, THEY DEAL WITH KIND OF PUDDING.

IT'S THE SAME THING.

THERE'S THE TWO DIFFERENT VERSIONS.

ONE 60%.

50%.

SO, OR SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION.

IT WAS DOUBLED UP.

THAT'S IT.

THAT'S NOT DISBARRED.

GOT IT IN OUR PACKET.

WHAT, WE'RE NOT ASKING FOR SEATS.

THAT'S WHAT, ANOTHER THING, MIKE.

AND WE'VE HAD THIS DISCUSSION IN OUR LAST COUPLE OF CURVES.

THE JUDGES HAS MADE REFERENCE TO THIS, THE APPRECIATES.

MMM.

AND I'M NOT SURE I HAVEN'T SEEN THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT HAS, HAS COUNCIL SAYING THE DEVELOPMENT, THE DEVELOPMENT GRANT.

SO I THINK, AGAIN, THAT TWO WEEK, A TWO WEEK DELAY WOULD GIVE US AN OPPORTUNITY TO RE RE REVIEW THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT.

THE, AND LOOK THAT'S BETWEEN CITY AND THE DEVELOPER AND THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT IS A SEPARATE, IS A TOTALLY SEPARATE THING, HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH .

WE DON'T, WE KNOW HERE'S WHY I THINK THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE IN THIS SYSTEM WE HAVE ADJACENT PROPERTY.

AND I WOULD SEE THIS ONE WORKING LIKE THAT.

I UNDERSTAND THE MECHANISMS AND THE PARTIES TO A DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT, BUT I THINK THE TERMS OF THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT, UH, HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO BE RELEVANT TO ANY DECISIONS THAT THE COUNTY MIGHT MAKE GOING FORWARD.

AND, UM, AND I'M SURE THAT, I MEAN, THERE'S NOTHING IN THE DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT THAT, YOU KNOW, IS ANY SORT OF SINISTER OR PROBLEMATIC THING IT'S NOT.

SO JUST TO BE, JUST TO BE CLEAR, THERE IS NO DEVELOPER'S AGREEMENT YET.

THERE WILL BE, AS SOON AS WE FILED THE FINAL PLAT, THERE WILL BE A DEVELOPER'S DEGREE.

SO IT SEEMS PRUDENT THEN THAT MAYBE EVEN SINCE, AS YOU POINTED OUT THAT THE DEVELOPERS MIGHT HAVE SOME INTEREST IN THAT ADJACENT COUNTY PROPERTY THEMSELVES, IT DOESN'T SEEM, UH, UH, OUTLANDISH THAT PERHAPS THE COUNTY WOULD BE, UH, AVAILABLE.

IF YOU WILL, TO JUST SPEAK WITH THE DEVELOPERS ABOUT THE OUT YEAR NEGOTIATIONS OR OUT HERE, UH, OUTCOMES OF THIS PARTICULAR TERMS. SO AGAIN, UH, TONY I'LL SUPPORT THE TERRORS, BUT I, I REALLY BELIEVE THAT A TWO WEEK REVIEW PROCESS WOULD NOT BE, WOULD NOT HURT THE COUNTY.

I HAVE SOME WORKSHOP, UH, NO, NO.

I SAID, OKAY, WELL, I'M GOING TO WEIGH IN ON THIS.

UH, CAUSE I DISAGREED WITH THE COMMISSION ON CAGE.

UH, THE STANDARD PRACTICE IN THE COUNTY AND OTHER COUNTIES WOULD BE TO PARTICIPATE AS A PARTNER AND I TERMS OR A TIF.

UH, THIS HAS BEEN OUR PRACTICE IN THE COUNTY FOR YEARS NOW.

UH, WE HAVE ONE COMING UP, UH, HAVING TO DO WITH, UH, THE CITY OF CRANDALL COMING UP AT OUR NEXT COMMISSIONER'S COURT MEETING.

UH, WE DON'T HAVE THE TOOLS OR THE STAFF TO, TO DO THESE, UH, NEGOTIATIONS AND TO DO THESE DEVELOPER, UH, SPENDING OURSELVES TO THE MIX AND THEN WORKING THE DEVELOPER IS TOO MANY COOKS IN THE KITCHEN.

UM, WHAT, WHAT YOU SAY COMMISSIONER ABOUT AT ONE OF THE THINGS THAT'S REALLY DIFFERENT IS BECAUSE WE THAT'S, WHAT'S UNUSUAL IS WE HAVE THESE ADJACENT PROPERTIES TO THIS DEVELOPMENT.

TO ME, THAT ARGUMENTS FOR US TO THAT ARGUES FOR US TO GO TO MOVE FORWARD AND ALL THAT, ALL THE TRIGGERS, BECAUSE WE'VE GOT SO MUCH TO GAIN, THERE'S NO IMPACT ON PROPERTY IS GOING TO BE AT THIS DEVELOPMENT.

UH, THE COUNTY STANDS TO GAIN, UH, $9 MILLION, UH, IN INCREMENT DOCTOR MELISSA, YOU SAID 300.

AND HOW MANY JOBS, HOW MANY, THREE, WHAT ARE THOSE THREE 25? THOSE ARE JOBS.

I GUARANTEE YOU THEY'LL HAVE JOBS WILL BE SCATTERED AROUND THE COUNTY.

AND THEN THE IMPACT ON THE, WITH THE, UH, ATHLETIC FACILITY AND THE OPPORTUNITIES THAT THAT BRINGS.

IT'S NOT JUST, YOU KNOW, THEY HAVE THAT, THEY HAVE THAT EVENT OR ATHLETIC EVENT CENTER IN GENERAL.

[00:45:01]

THE ONE IN THE ARROW WILL FROM THE KIDS FROM CRANDALL AND THE 40 AND KAUFMAN ARE, THEY, THEY'RE ALL GOING HERE FOR TOURNAMENTS AND THINGS LIKE THAT.

AND I WISH YOU THE SAME THING GOING ON HERE.

SO THIS IS ALL 100% UPSIDE FOR THE COUNTY.

AND I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD BE CHANGING THE RULES ON THE CITY OF CALL WHEN THIS IS, THEY HAD VERY GOOD REASON TO EXPECT THAT OUR FISH CANDOR 50% PARTICIPATION WOULD CONTINUE AS IT HAS IN THE OTHER, OTHER CITIES.

AND WHAT ARE WE GOING TO KNOW WHEN TWO WEEKS? AND WE DON'T KNOW RIGHT NOW, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE'VE, THAT WE, WHEN THE COMMISSIONER HAD AN HOUR MEETING WITH THE CITY IS THEY ASKED US SEVERAL TIMES, WHAT DO YOU, WHAT DO YOU, WHAT PROJECTS DO YOU WANT DONE? I MEAN, WHAT ARE Y'ALL, WHAT ARE YOU LIKING THE POOR PAUL? WHAT SHOW ME, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE A MASTER PLAN, BUT WE DON'T HAVE ANY DOLLARS ASSOCIATED WITH THAT.

SO WE'RE ASKING, WE'RE ASKING THE CITY TO PARTICIPATE IN THESE PROJECTS, BUT WE DON'T HAVE ANY INFORMATION AND WE'RE NOT GOING TO HAVE ANY INFORMATION TWO WEEKS EITHER.

SO IT'S PROBABLY THAT OUR AGREEMENT IS ALSO YES, IN INNER LOCAL BREAK.

WE'RE NOT IN THE MIDDLE.

COMMUNICATION NEEDS TO BE BETWEEN ALL OF US.

SO LET ME JUST RESPOND TO YOU, JUDGE.

YOU'RE RIGHT.

UM, WE, AS I SAID AT THE OUTSET, I ABSOLUTELY BELIEVE THAT THIS DESIRABLE DEVELOPMENT IS A POSITIVE, UH, COUNTY OF IS THE RIGHT DIRECTION OF MOVING.

NOW, WE DON'T KNOW MUCH MORE INFORMATION TODAY THAN WE DID TWO WEEKS AGO.

CAUSE FRANKLY, I DIDN'T GET ANY INFORMATION OUT OF YOUR OFFICE FOR THE LAST TWO WEEKS.

UH, YOU KNOW, I KNOW YOU HAD THIS MEETING AND UNTIL I ASKED YOU ABOUT IT, I REALLY GOT VIRTUALLY NO FEEDBACK WHATSOEVER.

SO, UH, YOU KNOW, HAD WE HAD A LITTLE MORE ENGAGEMENT THEN MAYBE WE WOULDN'T, I WOULDN'T BE HERE ASKING THESE QUESTIONS, BUT NEVERTHELESS, I DIDN'T GET ANY INFORMATION.

UH, NOW, AS I SAID, UH, I THINK THIS IS A POSITIVE DEVELOPMENT BACK.

WHAT I SAID AT THE OUTSET WAS I'M NOT EVEN OPPOSED TO, TO, UH, A HIGHER PARTICIPATION, BUT I THINK THERE ARE, I THINK THAT WE LACK AN AGREEMENT IN, IN PRINCIPLE, EVEN AMONGST OURSELVES, WHAT'S THE RIGHT STEP.

WHAT'S THE RIGHT, UH, PLANNING, IF YOU WILL, LONG RANGE PLANNING, UH, RELATED TO THE PROPERTY THAT ARE ADJACENT TO THIS DEVELOPMENT.

AND YOU'RE EXACTLY RIGHT.

WE'D HAVE A TERMS AGREEMENT WITH COMING UP WITH CRANDALL, BUT WE DON'T HAVE ANY PROPERTY THAT WE OWN, UH, ADJACENT TO THAT PURCHASE AGREEMENT.

SO THIS IS A UNIQUE CIRCUMSTANCE AND JUST BECAUSE WE'VE ALWAYS DONE IT THAT WAY IN THE PAST, I DON'T THINK IS NECESSARILY CORRECTLY.

WE ALWAYS HAVE TO DO WITH THAT.

SO I JUST THINK THAT THERE ARE SOME STILL SOME LOOSE ENDS THAT AT LEAST WARRANT DISCUSSION BY THE COMMISSIONERS COURT.

AND I DON'T SEE WHY A TWO WEEK DELAY IS FABLE TO THIS ANYWAY.

WELL, CAN I SAY, IS IT MY MIND, WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT WITH THE SENIOR COP DISCUSSIONS ABOUT WHAT PROPERTY WE ALL ARE REALLY TWO SEPARATE, WE'RE ALL IN THE SAME TIER IT'S TO ME IT'S REALLY TWO SEPARATE ISSUES.

AND WE DO HAVE THOSE DISCUSSIONS AND LONG DISCUSSIONS ASIDE WHAT WE WANT TO DO OR WHAT WE'D LIKE TO SEE.

I WOULDN'T WANT TO SEE ANYTHING HAPPEN WITH MY PROPERTY, RAN IN THE DARK, DON'T CALL IT , BUT I CAN SEE THE SEPARATION AND HAVE THE 50% IS LIKE WHAT WE'VE ALWAYS DONE.

UM, I DON'T SEE.

AND IF WE DON'T GET ANY, ANYTHING OTHER THAN WHAT WE STANDARD, WHERE IT STANLEY GETTING, AND THEN I DON'T SEE ANYTHING GOING MORE THAN 50%.

I MEAN, I JUST SEE THIS AND I HAVE MIXED FINGERS WITH THESE TARGETS OR TIPS OR WHAT AGREEMENT ME BECAUSE THEY'RE GENERATING SALES TAX.

AND THEN WE ARE GIVING A PROPERTY TAX TO MAKE THE BEST FOR THEM TO GROW FOR SOME DOLLARS IN RETURN, BUT GIVING UP MORE DOLLARS IN PROPERTY TAX.

BUT THEY'VE ALSO GOT SALES TAXES BEING GENERATED, WHICH IS RIGHT.

AND WE DON'T HAVE THAT, THAT CHANCE TO, FOR US TO GET THE SALES TAX.

SO, BUT I THINK THE 50% IS IT'S TOTALLY REASONABLE FOR WE GET THE STANDARDS AND THANKFULLY WE DIDN'T GET IT WITHIN THE COUNTY.

PART OF THAT, THAT YOU ADDRESS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED SEPARATELY.

AND WE DO NEED TO HAVE SERIOUS DISCUSSIONS.

[00:50:02]

I CAN SEE THIS BEING TWO DIFFERENT DEALS.

WELL, I APPRECIATE THAT, BUT I THINK THEY'RE THE SAME DEAL I THINK BECAUSE OF, BECAUSE OF OUR PROPERTY IS IMMEDIATELY BENEFITS FROM IT.

I THINK IT IS.

AND LOOK, LISTEN, MAKE NO MISTAKE AGAIN, I'M IN FAVOR OF THE CHURCH, BUT, UH, YOU KNOW, AS THE NUMBERS POINT OUT, YOU KNOW, AS PROPOSED, WE WOULD PLUS UP $9 MILLION IN PROPERTY TAX.

BUT IF WE DON'T PARTICIPATE AT ALL WITH PLUS UP 16 MILLION.

SO I MEAN, YOU KNOW, THERE'S A TRADE OFF ON BOTH SIDES.

THERE'S NO DOUBT ABOUT IT, BUT I REALLY JUST THINK THAT THERE NEEDS TO BE THERE.

HASN'T BEEN A DISCUSSION OF, YOU KNOW, AMONGST THESE COMMISSIONERS IN THIS COMMISSIONER'S COURT ABOUT ANY SORT OF PLANNING OR ANY VISION FOR WHAT THIS, WHAT THIS VERY DESIRABLE DEVELOPMENT, HOW IT WILL IMPACT, UH, POSITIVELY, OR I GUESS POTENTIALLY NEGATIVELY, BUT I DON'T SEE A NEGATIVE, BUT HOW IT WILL IMPACT US POSITIVELY.

UH, BUT WE NEED TO MAXIMIZE THAT IMPACT.

AND I THINK THE RIGHT THING TO DO IS HAVE, IS, UH, IS, IS CLEAR UP DOCUMENTS THAT ARE IN OUR PACKET, UH, MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE UNIFIED IN, IN, UH, WHAT WE THINK IS BEST FOR THE CITIZENS AND KAUFMAN COUNTY AND THEN MAKE THIS DECISION.

I JUST DON'T THINK THAT TWO WEEKS DELAY, PARTICULARLY OUT OF THE JUDGE'S OFFICE CAN GET, GET A COUPLE OF WORKSHOP SESSIONS SCHEDULED AND GET THIS AT LEAST DISCUSS, UH, AND EXPLORE OUR OPTIONS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE MAXIMIZING IT.

SO THAT'S, UH, THAT'S JUST MY FEELINGS ON IT.

I JUST DON'T THINK THE TWO WEEKS HAS FAILED ANY OF THEM.

ANYBODY ELSE TEXTURES.

IF SOMEBODY WANTS TO MAKE A MOTION TO THAT FACT, I'LL MAKE THAT MOTION SPECIFICALLY SAYING , I'LL MAKE A MOTION THAT WE ADOPT.

RAYMOND.

WE HAVE THAT MOTION TO STAY HERE.

SECOND DISCUSSION.

I PROPOSE THAT, THAT THE MOTION BE TABLE AND THAT THIS MATTER BE TABLE TO BE RECONSIDERED.

I HAVE A MOTION.

WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND.

SO THE, WE CAN DISCUSS YOU CAN'T TAKE SO, ALRIGHT.

YOU'RE RIGHT.

SO WE ARE LOOKING AT A SECOND HOME OUT OF 23 IS DISCUSSED THOSE IN FAVOR, SIGNIFY BY SAYING, AYE.

THAT WAS POST.

NO, NO.

WE HAVE A BRIEF WINDOW THAT MOTION HEARINGS WHILE WE'RE ON.

SO DO YOU CALL IT A LITTLE BIT MORE? THE ITEM 22, WHICH IS, UH, DISCUSS, CONSIDER ENTERING INTO FIRST AMENDED CITY HALL.

HE HAD NUMBER ONE, THIS WAS ALL WORKED OUT BEHIND THE SCENES.

THIS IS JUST A, AN AGREEMENT WITH THE TAX ATTORNEY AND TAX ASSESSORY COLLECTOR TO COLLECT HIS ASSESSMENTS AND GEORGETOWN.

THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE FORMAL AGREEMENT.

THEY'RE CHARGING THE SAME RATE THAT THEY'RE CHARGING, LIKE ANY OTHER, ANY OTHER.

MOVING US UP A CROWD DOWN A LITTLE BIT.

SO, UH, WE HAVE OUT OF 22 DISCUSS WITH JERRY ENTERING INTO THE FIRST IMAGE COLLECTION ILA.

I'D LIKE TO MOSTLY THE EMOTIONAL SECOND, SECOND DISCUSSION.

THOSE PAPERS YOU CAN FIND BY SECOND POST THOUGH, THAT MOTION CARRIES.

ALRIGHT, THANK YOU FOR

FROM, UH, SUSAN REDBIRD IS THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE TEXAS ASSOCIATION OF COUNTIES.

WHAT'S YOUR SHOW WHERE IT IS, BUT I JUST WANT TO MAKE NOTE RECORD.

I GOT A

[10. Judge Richards; Recognition of Kaufman County for "2020 Best Practices Award"]

CONGRATULATIONS, TEXAS ASSOCIATION OF COUNTIES HAS SELECTED YOUR COUNTY TO RECEIVE TO 2020 COUNTING BEST PRACTICES.

AWARD.

FIRST AWARD IS FOR YOUR COMMUNICATION.

THE COALITION PROGRAM IN THE SECOND WARD IS WHERE YOUR VIDEO, ERIC VELOCITIES PROGRAM SUBMITTED A HONORABLE MARK USE PUBLIC MONEY CLERK.

WE RECOMMEND YOUR, WE COMMEND YOUR EFFORTS TO BETTER SERVE THE PUBLIC MEAN FOR SHARING THE DETAILS OF YOUR OUTSTANDING PROGRAM WITH US TO HELP SPREAD THE WORD AND ENCOURAGE REPLICATION OF YOUR INNOVATIONS.

[01:00:01]

TAC WILL SHARE INFORMATION WITH THE COUNTY MAGAZINE ON OUR SOCIAL MEDIA CHANNELS, AND WE'LL PROVIDE YOU WITH A NEUTRAL NICE YOU CAN USE TO ANNOUNCE YOUR ACHIEVEMENTS, PLEASE.

AND SO WHAT WE'RE GOING TO BE ARRANGING FOR A MEETING IN NOVEMBER OR DECEMBER FOR TACTICAL FORMAL PRESENTATION AND COMMUNICATIONS COALITION.

UH, I LIKE A LOT OF THINGS.

I THINK I WAS, I WAS PART OF THE IDEA FOR COMING UP WITH A WAY FOR US TO SHARE EXPERTISE AND TRAINING WITH ALL OF OUR COMMUNICATIONS PROFESSIONALS IN THE COUNTY, PEOPLE WHO ARE TASKED, UH, EITHER WORKING FOR A CITY OR A SCHOOL DISTRICT IN THE COUNTY, OUR CHAMBER EDC, UH, HELP US ALL BE BETTER AT COMMUNICATIONS, SOCIAL MEDIA, WRITING, PRESS RELEASES, TAKING PICTURES, UH, EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS, UH, UH, JERRY DEAN ORGANIZED THAT PROCESS.

UH, WE HAD GREAT MEETINGS AND TRAIN STATIONS LOOKING AT THE FUTURE.

WE WERE REALLY PROUD TO GET THAT AWARD.

AND THEN OUR COUNTY CORP WANT TO TELL US ABOUT, JUST BRIEFLY ABOUT, ABOUT VIDEO MIRRORS LICENSES.

WELL, DURING A LOT DOWN, WE NEEDED TO FIND A WAY THAT WE WOULD BE ABLE TO CONTINUE ISSUING MARRIAGE LICENSES TO THE CONSTITUENTS OF COBB COUNTY.

A LOT OF THE COUNTY CLERKS HAD JUST STOPPED ISSUING THEM ALL TOGETHER AND WE DIDN'T WANT TO DO THAT.

SO WE PUT TOGETHER A BUNCH OF THE TOOLS THAT WE HAD ARE AT OUR, YOU KNOW, WHAT WE HAD AVAILABLE.

AND WE WERE ABLE TO JUST USE SEVERAL PROCESSES TIED TOGETHER.

AND BASICALLY THE PEOPLE WHO ARE LOOKING TO GET MARRIED DID ZOOM, MEETING USED SOME TOOLS TO SIGN THEIR DOCUMENTS ELECTRONICALLY.

AND WE WERE ABLE TO ISSUE MARRIAGE LICENSES FOR THE PEOPLE APART FROM COUNTY AND SEVERAL OTHER COUNTIES, BECAUSE A LOT OF THE COUNTY STOPPED ISSUING MARRIAGE LICENSES ALTOGETHER.

AND THIS WAS A WAY TO KEEP THE PUBLIC SAFE, KEEPS EMPLOYEES SAFE AND CONTINUE TO DO OUR JOB.

CONGRATULATIONS, JERRY, HOW MANY, HOW MANY WORK FOR YOUR EVER THERE WAS NINE TOTAL NINE WHOLE WHAT THEY CALL FROM COUNTY TO COUNTY THROUGH RACINE THESE BEST PRACTICE ALMOST.

I THINK THERE'S SOME PRECEDENT IN A SMALLER OR A PAIR OF KUDOS FOR USING THE MODERN TECHNOLOGY LIKE YOUR, THE MARRIAGE LICENSE.

I MEAN, IT'S PROBABLY GOING TO BE SOMETHING THAT'S GOING TO BE CARRIED DOWN.

SOME VENDORS HAVE GOT THEIR BOARD WOULD CALL TO SEE WHAT THAT PROCESS WAS.

I CAN SEE GETTING SOMETHING SPECIAL AND THEN COMMUNICATION COALITION.

I MEAN, WE ALL KNOW HOW IMPORTANT COMMUNICATION IS AMONGST THEMSELVES AND THEIR BODY ON THE MIC AND COMPUTERS AND STUFF, BUT THEN JUST KIND OF PROVES THE POINT THAT SOMETIMES WE DON'T HAVE TO RECREATE THE WHEEL TO DO SOMETHING POSITIVE.

THIS IS A, I MEAN, I KNOW WHEN I FIRST GOT HERE, ONE OF THE FIRST INVITES I HAD WAS THE RESOURCES COALITION COUNTY, OR THEY DO THE SAME THING IS I PULL ALL OF THE RESOURCES THAT WILL HELP ALL THE NEEDY FOLKS AND THEY HAVE MEETINGS AND THE EDUCATE EACH OTHER, WHAT THEY CAN PROVIDE AND WHAT THEY CAN.

SO I THINK IT'S A GREAT DEAL WHERE YOU DON'T HAVE TO RECREATE SOMETHING TOTALLY NEW TO MAKE SOMETHING SUCCESSFUL.

YOU JUST BREACHED THE DIFFERENT IDEAS, THE SAME FACES.

THAT'S AWESOME.

ANYBODY ELSE? HANG ON THAT, EXCUSE ME.

MORE INFORMATION LATER WHEN TACK SHOWS UP, WE'LL HAVE A BIG, WE'LL HAVE A BIG EVENT.

SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT DISCUSS, CONSIDER REFRAMING DEPUTIZATION, JOHN ODOM, STEVEN VAN VAN MAXIMUS, AS YOU.

HOW SHERIFF CHIEF.

YES.

THE NEW HIRE HAS WORKFORCE FOR ALMOST THREE YEARS AND HALF.

THE TWO NEW ONE HAS PREVIOUS LAW ENFORCEMENT EXPERIENCE.

THE OTHER HAS NONE SO FAR.

YOU'RE DOING A REALLY GOOD QUESTION.

THAT'S GOOD.

ARE WE GETTING, WE'RE GETTING CLOSE TO BEING FULL, RIGHT.

UM, SO WHAT WE HAVE BEFORE IS, WOULD BE A PROMOTION TO APPROVE DIFFERENT STATIONS.

STEVEN VAN, LOUIE, AND EXCELLENCE.

WE HAD EMOTIONAL PERMISSION, BONUSES OR COMMISSION, A CAGE DISCUSSION THOSE IN FAVOR, SIGNIFY BY SAYING, I KNOW THAT MOTION PERIODS NEXT THREE HOURS, NEXT TWO HOURS FOR CONDITIONER

[14. Commissioner Cates; Discuss/Consider approving Interlocal Project Agreements for the City of Scurry for reconstruction and double chip seal on Stewart Lane and County Road 4091, Pet. 4.]

WE CONSTRUCT A DOUBLE CHIP SEAL ON STUPID LANE COUNTY ROAD, 491 PERSON, JUST A PRECINCT DINNER IN THE PROJECT AGREEMENT PERCENTAGE ARE JUST IN THE LOCAL IMPROVE THESE TWO ROADS THAT ARE WITHIN THE CITY.

AND THEN THE CITY LIMITS ON UNFORTUNATELY PROBABLY REACHED THE END OF THE ROAD BUILDING SEASON.

IS THERE A MOTION TO APPROVE THAT SCURRY AND I'LL MAKE THE MOTION OR A SECOND.

I'LL SECOND, SECOND.

DISCUSSION THOSE IN FAVOR, SIGNIFY BY SAYING, AYE.

MOTION CARRIES BACK TO YOU,

[15. Commissioner Cates; Discuss/Consider approving Interlocal Agreement and Project Agreement for the City of Kemp to exchange mowing for waving permit for concrete slab and moving fire hydrant.]

SIR.

THIS IS AN AGREEMENT WE NEGOTIATED WITH THE CITY OF CAMP.

CITY HAS SOME SERIOUS MOWING NEEDS IN AND AROUND THE APPROACHES TO A COUPLE OF THE SCHOOLS, ACTUALLY EQUIPMENT, TO BE ABLE TO DO THAT IN LIEU OF PAYMENT TO THE COUNTY, THEY HAVE OFFERED TWO WAVES OF ASSOCIATED FEES RELATIVE TO CONCRETE SLABS THAT WE NEED TO POUR IN OUR EXISTING MAINTENANCE FACILITY, AS WELL AS RELOCATING A MAJOR FIRE HYDRANT THAT IS NOW AFTER WE'VE RECONFIGURED IS NOW LOCATED IN THE MIDDLE OF OUR PARKING LOT.

YOU KNOW, THE CITY IS GOING TO THEM FOR THE COST AND EXPENSE THAT RELOCATE THAT FIRE HYDRANT MAKE IT MORE USABLE FOR US.

THAT'S WHERE WE GET OUR WATER AND ALSO MAKE IT MORE ACCESSIBLE TO THE CITY ITSELF, POSITIONING THE BAR AFTER AND OUTSIDE THE FENCE.

SO IT'S A GOOD, IT'S A GOOD MUTUALLY COOPERATIVE EFFORT ALL THE WAY AROUND.

SO MAKE A MOTION THAT

[16. Commissioner Hunt; Discuss/Consider approving resolution between Kaufman County and the City of Oak Ridge to annex a portion of Abner Road / Zagota Crossing Road and their associated right-ofways.]

RAISED THEM IN DEVELOPMENT CAME IN AND THEY ANNEXED THE LAND AND BUMPERS, CAROLYN BARKING AND BUILDING HOMES AND STUFF DON'T FEEL THE PROCESS IS TERRIBLE AND IT

[01:10:01]

RAISES ANNEX WITH ANNEXATION STATUTE 14, SIX, 10 REQUIRES AN ANNEX UP TO A COUNTY ROAD, DETECTIVE LITTLE COUNTY ROAD WITH MEN THERE'S 4,506 FEET ON ANDRA ROAD TO POTTS THIS NEW DEVELOPMENT BACKSIDES.

THERE'S A COUNTY ROAD THIS HALF CITY AND COUNTY, AND, UH, THEY'D HAVE TO ANNEX 513 FEET ON THE BACK OF THAT.

SO JUST TO BE, UH, TAKE THE WHOLE AND JUST BE EXTENDED THERE PORTION.

AND THAT, THAT MAKES THE STATUTE 23 WHILE, I MEAN 43, ONE OH FIVE FIVE WHEN WE DO THIS, BUT YOU NEED TO REQUEST ANNEXATION AND THEN THE BALL'S IN THEIR CORTEX, MIKE EMOTION, AND DO THIS.

UH, WE HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE RESOLUTION.

DISCUSS, CONSIDER APPOINTING MICHELLE SHEPHERD TO MARCUS'S YEAH, THE, UH, ESD THREE.

THEY'RE NOT PRECINCT.

THEY HAD TWO BOARD MEMBERS HAVE RESIGNED, UH, BOTH CONSERVED PRETTY GOOD TIME.

AND I WOULD LIKE TO RECOGNIZE THEM LATER, I GUESS, MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THAT.

THERE ARE TIME SERVICE AND, UM, BUT UH, THROUGH THE RESIGNATION, WE HAD TWO SPOTS TO FEEL AFTER TAKING NOMINATIONS AND INTERVIEWING SEVERAL FOLKS THAT WERE INTERESTED.

AND I DECIDED ON THEIR QUARTER, UH, PERMIT FIREFIGHTER WOULD BE A REALLY GOOD ASSET TO THE COORDINATOR.

AND OF COURSE, CHUCK SHEPHERD, THE VENDOR SAYS THEY BROUGHT DIRT INTO ELMO.

HE'S THE UNOFFICIAL MAYOR OF ELMO.

SO, UH, THOUGHT HE WAS A GOOD CHOICE AS WELL.

AND HE WAS HAPPY TO, UH, TO JOIN THE TEAM AND HELP OUT WITH THAT.

SO I WOULD MAKE A MOTION THAT WE CAN MAKE THAT OFFICIAL.

AND THEN I'LL PRESENT THAT TO THEM TONIGHT THAT IT'S ALL OFFICIAL AT THEIR MEETING IN ELMO.

WE HAVE MOTION COMMISSIONER MARGARET, TO A POINT HERE, WE'RE GOING TO TRY TO SHEPHERD THAT USB THREE OR SECOND, SECOND, SECOND DISCUSSION THAT WAS IN FAVOR SIGNIFY BY SAYING I HAVE MOTION CARRIES NEXT UP

[18. Pam Corder; Discuss/Consider approving Resolution for the Indigent Defense Grant Program to assist the county in the implementation and the improvement of the indigent criminal defense services.]

IN QUARTER, ESPECIALLY AS YOU'RE APPROVING RESOLUTION FOR THE INDIGENT AND PINCH GRANT PROGRAM.

THAT'S FOR APPLICATION, I PAINT TO ASSIST THE COUNTY AND IMPUTATION PREDOMINANT INDIGENT CRIMINAL DEFENSE.

GOOD MORNING.

SO I'M JUST ASKING YOU TO THIS RESOLUTION.

THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE DO YEARLY AND THE STATE, UM, FINGERS, A PERCENTAGE ON 50% OF THE COUNTY STATE POPULATION AND 50% OF THE COUNTIES PERCENT STATEWIDE, DIRECT IMAGENET EXPENDITURES PREVIOUS YEAR TO COME UP WITH A NUMBER THAT THEY HELP US WITH ON OUR INDIGENT DEFENSE COSTS.

UH, QUESTIONS.

IS THERE A MOTION TO APPROVE THAT RESOLUTION? I'LL MAKE THE MOTION, THAT MOTION COMMISSIONER CASE SORT OF SECOND, SECOND COMMISSIONER PHILLIPS DISCUSSION.

DOESN'T FAVOR SIGNIFY BY SAYING AYE.

AYE, NO MOTION CARRIES A NEXT STEP.

SERGEANT

[19. Sgt. Kitchens; Discuss/Consider accepting donation from Travis Ranch for one (1) Black 2020 Chevrolet Tahoe Police Interceptor VIN IGNLCDEC5LR190318 for Kaufman County Constable's Office Pet. 2.]

KITCHENS DISCUSSING EXETER OR STEPPING DONATION FROM TRAVIS RANCH OR ONE BLACK 2020 CHEVROLET, TYLER POLICE INTERCEPTOR.

WE'LL CALL THIS COUNTY CONSTABLE'S OFFICE PRECINCT TO A GOOD MORNING.

JUDGE COMMISSIONERS.

THIS AGENDA ITEM IS FOR THE DONATION OF A PATROL VEHICLE.

THE TRAPS RANCH CONTRACT PATROL CONTRACT NEEDED A NEW VEHICLE LOGISTICALLY TO BE MORE EXPEDIENT.

IT WAS JUST FASTER FOR THEM TO BUY IT OUT TO OUR STANDARDS AND THEN DONATE IT.

SO THEY'VE DONE THAT IT'S FULLY EQUIPPED AND THIS IS JUST THEM TRANSFERRING IT TO, UH, THE COUNTY'S ASSETS FOR YOU, SIN ON THE PATROL CONTRACTS.

UH, QUESTIONS DOES THAT ANY IMPACT ON OUR FLEET, THE AGREEMENT AND ALL THE MAINTENANCE COSTS FOR THAT VEHICLE WOULD COME OUT OF THE COUNTRY.

UM, OKAY.

IS THERE A MOTION TO ACCEPT THAT DONATION? THAT MOTION CARRIES EXCEPT DISTRICT

[20. DA's Office; Discuss/Consider approval of Document Logistix Purchase Agreement.]

ATTORNEY'S OFFICE DISCUSSED WITH YOUR APPROVAL DOCUMENT, BUT IT'S PURCHASED Y'ALL MAY REMEMBER THAT WHEN WE TALKED ABOUT THE BUDGET, YOU GUYS APPROVED THIS, I FEEL LIKE I'M KIND OF DOING BELT AND SUSPENDERS HERE, BUT ONE OF THE THINGS THAT JUDGE RICHARDSON SAID IS TO MAKE SURE THAT THE CARE'S OUT

[01:15:01]

THE PIPE, RUN THAT THROUGH STEVE AND SEE WHAT WOULD BE REQUIRED.

AND SO THEN HE HAS HIS CONTACT AT THE STATE TO MAKE SURE THAT THE SOFTWARE WE'RE GETTING WOULD MAKE MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE CARES ACT.

SO WE DID THAT.

WE INITIALLY SENT HIM THE CONTRACT, WHICH, UM, THERE'S NO WAY I WOULD REMEMBER WHAT THAT CONTRACT COST WAS.

AND THIS WAS $110,475.

AND REMIND YOU WHAT THAT WAS, IS TO START OUR OFFICE.

UM, ALONG THE PATH, WE WOULD ADD THE AGENCIES FILE CASES TO OUR OFFICE WITHOUT ACTUALLY PHYSICALLY BRINGING THOSE TO THE OFFICE IT'S PUSHED THROUGH OBVIOUSLY DIGITALLY DONE.

SO THEY WOULD FILE A CASE IF AN ACUTE OFFICE WOULD ACCEPT THOSE CASES, THEN WE WOULD ALSO PUSH THOSE CASES TO THE DEFENSE ATTORNEYS FOR DISCOVERY PROCESS.

UH, AND THAT'S OUR LAW, UH, ANALYSIS OF WHAT THE CONTRACT DOES.

WE HAVE A VERY DETAILED DEBBIE HELPED WITH THAT VERY SCOPE OF THE CONTRACT THAT WE SENT TO STAVE UP GLAD RATED TO YOU, BUT I'M SURE YOU DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT.

THAT EXPLAINS IN DETAIL HOW THAT WE BELIEVE THAT WILL HELP.

IT WILL STOP A PERSONAL PERSON TRANSFERENCE, AND WE'LL BE ABLE TO ADD PEOPLE WITHIN THE COUNTY.

ALL THE AGENCIES PROBABLY START WITH THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT FIRST AND THEN MOVE INTO THE CITY AND CALL THEM IN.

AND THEN TERRELL.

AND WE'VE ALSO GOT A BUY IN FROM MOST OF THE AGENCIES, IF THEY'RE READY TO DO AND WILLING TO DO THIS, OF COURSE, THAT'S WHAT OTHER BIG CITIES ARE DOING ALREADY.

BIG JURISDICTIONS STATE RAN UP THE, UM, SCOPE OF THE, OF THE CONTRACT.

HE TALKED TO THE STATE COUNTERPART TO HIM.

THERE'S NO PROMISES, BUT IT LOOKED LIKE TO HIM, WHAT IT SENT BACK IN AN EMAIL THAT IT DID MEAN WHAT THEY'RE LOOKING AT AS FAR AS THE CARES ACT IS LOOKING AT, BECAUSE IT GOING TO, UM, MINIMIZE CONTACT MEAN PEOPLE ARE STILL GOING TO BRING, OKAY, SAYS WE'RE STILL GOING TO DISCUSS THE CASE BEING FILED, BUT INITIAL FILING, IT WILL STOP THE TRAFFIC IN AND OUT.

AND WE ALSO PUT IN THE FACT THAT WE'VE ALL HAD SPIKES FROM PEOPLE IN THE DA'S OFFICE, HAVING CONTACT.

WE DON'T KNOW WHERE THAT CAME FROM.

SO I'M ASKING YOU GUYS TO APPROVE THIS.

THE MONEY I THINK IS AVAILABLE.

Y'ALL KNOW THAT BETTER.

I DO.

UM, THE ONLY THING THAT'S NOT PART OF THIS, THAT'S A LITTLE OUTSIDE.

THERE WAS SOME DISCUSSION WE INITIALLY DID THIS IN W MIGHT BE HELPING WITH THIS, THAT THERE IS A COMPONENT THAT IS NOT COVERED.

THAT IS A SOFTWARE PIECE WITH IT.

AND NATHAN, AND THEN THE ACTUAL SERVER, IT'S A SERVER.

AND SO THIS IS NOT INCLUDED IN THAT THIS HAS ONLY INCLUDED WHAT MY OFFICE WOULD BE PAYING FOR OUT OF OUR BUDGET.

AND THAT WAS LOOKING AT THE SOFTWARE COST IN OUR OFFICE WITH OUR USERS.

PARDON? I'M NOT SURE IF WE HAVE THE SERVER, NOT WE'VE TALKED TO NATHAN ABOUT YOU NOTICING THE, I WOULD SAY THAT WE DON'T HAVE TO START OVER AGAIN.

I THINK HE WANTED IT BECAUSE BEEN MOUNTED WELL, WE WERE POLITE, BUT WE REACHED OUT TO HIM AND HE HAD BEEN WORKING WITH ADAM CORN THING A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO.

WE WANTED TO GO AND PUSH THIS FORWARD.

CAUSE I THINK WE'RE LOOKING AT A DEADLINE, AT LEAST FOR OUR END OF IT, BUT WE CAN DO, THERE'S NOTHING ELSE THAT I CAN DO FROM OUR OFFICE.

THAT'S GOING TO BE NATHAN ABOUT IT, BUT WE DO NEED THAT SERVER FOR MAKE THIS WORK BECAUSE IT WOULD MOVE SO SLOWLY.

IT WOULDN'T BE PRACTICAL FOR A LOBBYING EFFORT GOING ON.

I GOT PRETTY POOR EMAILS FROM CHIEFS.

I THINK THERE WAS BECAUSE THEY STARTED WITH ME.

WHAT'S THE HOLDUP.

AND I'M LIKE, THAT'S WHY I CALL IT WELL, I SAID, TOM CIPHER, THE FACT THAT IT'S DURING COVID, IT'S A WIN, WIN YOU'RE IN SUPPORT.

YOU DON'T, EVERYBODY LOVES SPORTS I'M TO SOMEBODY ELSE'S BED.

AND YOU'LL SEE THAT THE EMPLOYEE TOTAL ON THIS ROUND IS $81,365.

SO, UH, MORE QUESTIONS ABOUT THAT AND LOOKING FOR A MOTION TO APPROVE THAT PURCHASE, MAKE THAT MOTION MOTION COMMITTEE FOR A SECOND.

SORRY.

COMMISSIONER CAGE DISCUSSION IN FAVOR, SIGNIFY BY SAYING I POSE, YOU KNOW, A NEXT

[21. Deborah Bonner; Discuss/Consider and approve necessary payments for Part-Time TCDRS employees.]

STEP.

JERRY SENT YOU ALL THE SPREADSHEET, BUT THIS IS A PART TO WHAT WE STARTED AT THE LAST COMMISSIONER'S COURT COORDINATING, BRINGING UP THE, TO DATE ALL THE PART TIME EMPLOYEES THAT WERE NEVER ENROLLED IN T CDRS AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN MOST OF THESE PEOPLE.

THERE ARE A FEW EXCEPTIONS.

MOST OF THESE PEOPLE ARE NO LONGER EMPLOYED AT THE COUNTY, BUT WE STILL HAVE OBLIGATION TO BRING THEM CURRENT AND WHOLE, SINCE WE SHOULD HAVE DONE IT BACK WHEN THEY WERE EMPLOYED.

[01:20:01]

THE EMPLOYER TOTAL $112,399.

AND THE LIFE INSURANCE COMPONENT IS 32 54 FOR GRAND TOTAL ON THIS SIDE, ONE 97 OH ONE, NINE 58.

IF YOU'RE KEEPING SCORE THAT COMBINED WITH THE FIRST GROUP BRINGS US TO A GRAND TOTAL OF $354,247 3 CENTS.

BUT ONCE THESE ARE INPUT BY QCDR S THAT SHOULD BRING US COMPLETELY CURRENT AND UP TO DATE.

AND THIS PROJECT WILL MARK QUESTIONS ABOUT THAT.

UM, OKAY THEN, UH, LOOKING FOR A MOTION TO APPROVE THAT NECESSARILY PAYMENT COMMISSION MARKERS, OR SITE CONDITIONS.

ARE WE, WHAT ARE WE PAYING THIS OUT OF THE DISCUSSION PERIODS? ALRIGHT

[24. Brenda Samples; Discuss/Consider approving 1st Amended Interlocal Cooperative Agreement for Market Center Public Improvement District Assessment Collection between Kaufman County and The City of Terrell, Texas.]

SO ON THE SAMPLES HERE, UH, DISCUSS, CONSIDER APPROVING FIRST WHAT WE HAVE IS AMENDED IN A LOCAL AGREEMENT WITH THE MARKET CENTER, PUBLIC, IMPROVE IT TERRIBLE.

AND, UH, JUST GOT A DOLLAR 50 THAT WOULD CHARGE.

AND I SEE HOW THAT'S WHAT WE CHARGED.

AND, UH, THE ATTORNEYS HAD LOOKED AT ALL THIS, IT DIDN'T CHANGE, BUT THESE AGREEMENTS, THE AMENDED AGREEMENTS IS TO MAKE IT NET FILLING.

SO THEN WE'RE NOT GOING TO PAY THEM AND THEN ASK THEM TO PAY US BACK.

WE'RE TAKING OUR FUNDS OUT AT THE BEGINNING AND THEN GIVING THEM .

THESE ARE A MOTION TO APPROVE.

AND THE PURPOSE OF THIS IS A GRANT AND WE HAVEN'T TOLD DECEMBER THE 31ST TO SPEND IT AND WHAT IT IS SUPPOSED TO, UH, WHAT IS ALLOWABLE AND, UH, THE CENTER FOR TECH AND CIVIC LABS.

[01:25:01]

AND THEN WE MAY ALLOCATE GRANT FUNDS AMONG THOSE NEEDS TO PUBLIC PURPOSES FOR THE GRANT APPLICATION.

AND WE HAVEN'T TOLD IS THERE THE 31ST SPEND THE MONEY FOR WHAT WE DON'T USE THOSE BAGS BECAUSE THEM AND, UH, WE HAVE TO OF COURSE GIVE THEM WHAT WOULD YOU SPEND THE MONEY ON MONDAY? WE WERE, WE WERE AWARDED SIGN UP.

DISCUSS ADDITIONAL INFORMATION NEEDED TO COMPLETE COMPRESSED TIMELINE I'M HEARING.

DAN WOULD MOVE FOR A MOTION TO A SECOND PAGE DISCUSSION.

I'D LIKE TO SAY ONE MORE THING, JUDGE, IF IT'S OKAY.

AT THE END OF THE, UH, RUNOFF ELECTION, WE HAD 75,934 VOTERS REGISTERED.

AND RIGHT NOW WE'VE GOT 89, 81,966.

AND THAT'S NOT ALL OF THEM BECAUSE WE STILL GOT STACKS THAT, YOU KNOW, I DON'T KNOW IF Y'ALL SAW THE PEOPLE THIS MORNING, THEY'RE WRAPPED AROUND EVERYWHERE, ALL THE BLOODY PLACES.

I'LL MAKE THAT MOTION CARRIES ITEM 28,

[28. Ron Sullivan; Discuss/Consider/Approve additional information needed to complete the Flood Infrastructure Fund Application.]

AND I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE BEST TO INCLUDE THIS ITEM, PICTURES, CLEANUP.

UH, THERE HAS BEEN A CONCERN EXPRESSED FROM THE ALDERMAN'S OFFICE

[01:30:01]

ABOUT, UH, THE AMOUNT OF PAPERWORK REQUIRED.

UH, FORTUNATELY I'M NOT IN A POSITION TO DO ANYTHING BUT DOING WARM YOU THAT, UM, IF YOU ALREADY CALLED THERE'S THREE OPTIONS, ONE IS, UH, THE SECOND OPTION IS, UH, IS UNCONSCIOUSLY PAID OR ARE DISCIPLINE.

AND THE THIRD IS IN KIND OF SERVICES AND ONLY MAINTENANCE OR NOT HAVE WITHIN KIND OF SERVICES, REALLY IDENTIFY WHAT THOSE SERVICES ARE.

AND WITH THIS SHORT TIMELINE, THAT THE ONLY THING I CAN THINK OF WOULD BE PROVIDING SERVICES ON THE BODY THAT REECE AND NICHOLS, UH, USING COUNTY STAFF, UH, MY, UH, ENGINEERING PICK HAS NOT EVEN BEEN HIRED YET.

SO, UH, YEAH.

SO, UH, SO WE CAN, WE CAN BORROW THE MONEY OR WE CAN USE OUR COMBINATION THERE.

UM, WHAT WAS THE, JUST THE AMOUNT OF PAPERWORK ACTUALLY? AND SO THIS IS, THIS IS ON THE AGENDA, BUT I DON'T THINK WE ANY SOONER, I JUST WANTED TO BRING IT TO THE COURT'S ATTENTION.

UH, WE CAN PROCEED AS YOU HAVE PREVIOUSLY INSTRUCTED, UH, OR WEEKEND.

OUR ACTION WAS TO DO WE TAKE ACTION, ALL THAT YOU DID? I DID.

SO YOU WERE VERY SPECIFIC, I THINK UNTIL I HIT THIS AND THEN I, AND THEN WE CAN, I GUESS, BRING IT BACK AT THE TIME OF WORK.

SO NOTHING TO

[29. Ron Sullivan; Discuss/Consider/Approve Resolution to file the Flood Infrastructure Application.]

IMPROVEMENTS AND WE SHOULDN'T HAVE FILED WITH THE, UH, ADA SOPHOS HAS FOR YOU THE, UH, RESOLUTION COURT'S ACTION, UH, DESIGNATE THAT I WOULD BE THE, UH, UH, AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF APARTMENT COUNTY.

UH, YOU CHOOSE THAT, OR YOU CAN APPOINT YOURSELVES AT THE COURT'S DISCRETION.

WHAT'S IT ALL, A LOT OF SUN, ALMOST 70, UH, SUBDIVISIONS AND, UH, WATER, UH, CORPORATIONS.

SO WHAT WOULD IDENTIFY AS OUR FINANCIAL ADVISORS ON COUNCIL IS DAVID MENDEZ AND THE BACKUP ENGINEER.

[30. Ron Sullivan; Discuss/Consider/Approve Affidavit for Flood Infrastructure Application.]

LET'S GO TO 30 LAST WEEK.

BACK RON, AGAIN, DISCUSS, CONSIDER AFFIDAVIT WHAT INFRASTRUCTURE WE HAVE.

[31. Monique Hunter; Discuss/Consider motion to approve Final Plat of Camilla Estates Located in Pet. 4,]

HE HAS GIVEN FOR THE LETTER, AND NOW WE HAVE PLACED IT BACK ON, RIGHT? JENNIFER .

WELL, WE BOUGHT IT AND WE TABLED IT AND THEN WE DENIED IT.

THEN WE BROUGHT IT BACK.

SO WE'RE HOPING IT'S THE LAST TIME.

WE'LL SEE IT.

RIGHT QUESTIONS? NO QUESTION.

IS, IS THERE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE FINAL PLAN STATES? WE HAD THAT EMOTIONAL CONDITION CAGES OR A SECOND.

ALRIGHT, NOW WE HAVE A STEW.

NOPE, NO ONE MORE.

OR ARE WE OUT OF ORDER? NO.

WELL, SO ANOTHER SUBDIVISION LATER JUST DON'T DO IT.

YEAH,

[37. Monique Hunter; Discuss/Consider approval of final pfat of Lively Ranch Subdivision located in Precinct 4]

THERE WE GO.

SO DISCUSS, COULD SHARE A MOTION TO APPROVE THEIR COOPERATION, COOPERATION AGREEMENT, ETJ AUTHORITY, AND LAND USE REGULATIONS IN COLLIN COUNTY AND THE CITY.

SO I'LL JUST GIVE YOU A LITTLE BACKGROUND IN LIBRARIES.

IT'S JUST THE FIRST TIME IT'S ON THE AGENDA.

UM, IT'S 14 LOTS LOCATED OFF COUNTY ROAD, 40 65 AND 40, 64.

THE LOT SIZES VARY FROM TWO ACRES TO 11 ACRES.

DEEP RESTRICTIONS HAVE BEEN PUT IN PLACE, UM, FOR THIS DEVELOPMENT, UM, TO INCLUDE NO MOBILE HOMES, UM, NO PIG FARMING.

THAT'S A GOOD ONE.

UM, AND THOSE WERE INCLUDED IN YOUR, IN YOUR PACKET.

SO WE'RE ASKING FOR YOU TO APPROVE THE FINAL PLAN FOR THIS ONE TODAY, ALL AUTHORITIES HAVE GONE THROUGH, HE'S WORKED OUT HIS WATER PLAN AND, UM, RANDY HAS REVIEWED THAT AND GIVEN HIS APPROVAL LETTER QUESTIONS, NO QUESTIONS.

IS THERE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE FINAL FIVE PROFILE, EMOTIONAL DISCUSSION? OH, 8% WAS SUPPOSED TO NOTE THAT MOTION PERIODS.

NOW WE'RE GOING TO BE SEQUENCE.

WELL, WE JUST DO IT ONE AT A TIME.

MONIQUE CAN GIVE US A BRIEFING ON ITEM 32.

ARE THESE ALL, DID THEY ALL CHOOSE TO SAY YES, THAT MAKES IT EASIER.

YES, IT DOES.

[32. Monique Hunter; Discuss/Consider motion to approve Interlocal Cooperation Agreement ETJ Authority- Land Use Regulation between Kaufman County and the City of Combine,]

YES.

SO COMBINE CHOSE TO HAVE JURISDICTION FOR THEIR PLANNING AND SUBDIVISIONS WITHIN THEIR ETJ.

UM, IF YOU NOTICE THE NEW AGREEMENT REALLY BREAKS DOWN, WHO HAS WHAT JURISDICTION FOR FIRE THOROUGHFARE NINE 11, ADD DRESSING ON THOSE.

IT REALLY, YOU KNOW, CAUSE THE OLD INTER-LOCAL AGREEMENT SAID AND ANY NECESSARY PERMITS, IT WAS TOO VAGUE, BROKE IT DOWN.

UM, THERE WERE SOME, UM, SLIGHT CHANGES TO WORDING, BUT NOTHING TO WHO HAS AUTHORITY.

AND SO, UM, COMBINED HAS JURISDICTION, BUT WE DID WITH THE COBRA APARTMENT, WE DID, IT IS ALL LAID OUT.

AND IF YOU LOOK AT THAT SECOND PAGE, IT'S FIRE THOROUGHFARE.

EVERY BIT OF IT IS LAID OUT.

SO IT'S VERY EASY TO TELL WHO'S DOING WHAT I HAD A LOT OF HELP THESE GUYS.

UM, QUESTIONS ON ITEM 32, WE'VE GOT A MOTION TO APPROVE THE SECOND, SECOND ARBOR DISCUSSION PAPER SHEET AND NOT BY SAYING AYE, THOSE OPPOSED.

NO MOTION CARRIES.

I WANT TO TAKE THE LIBERTY OF SAYING OUT OF 33, JACK, SAME THING ONLY THIS HAS TO DO WITH THE CITY OF SECRET.

[33. Monique Hunter; Discuss/Consider motion to approve Interlocal Cooperation Agreement ETJ Authority- Land Use Regulation between Kaufman County and the City of Seagoville.]

UH, ANY QUESTION, IS THERE A MOTION TO APPROVE THAT MOTION?

[34. Monique Hunter; Discuss/Consider motion to approve Interlocal Cooperation Agreement ETJ Authority- Land Use Regulation between Kaufman County and the City of Crandall.]

QUESTIONS? IS THERE A MOTION I'LL MAKE THE MOTION.

WE HAVE

[35. Monique Hunter; Discuss/Consider motion to approve Interlocal Cooperation Agreement ETJ Authority- Land Use Regulation between Kaufman County and the City of Talty.]

TO SEEK OUT THESE, YOUR EMOTION, YOUR EMOTIONAL COMMISSIONERS TO APPROVE.

IS THERE A SECOND, SECOND, SECOND, MR. PHILLIPS DISCUSSION THOSE IN FAVOR ON THAT MOTION CARRIES OUT

[36. Monique Hunter; Discuss/Consider motion to approve Interlocal Cooperation Agreement ETJ Authority- Land Use Regulation between Kaufman County and the City of Kaufman.]

36, SAME THING.

AND YOU DO A COMPLIMENT EMOTIONAL

[01:40:01]

APPROVAL IS FOR A SECOND DISCUSSION PAPER.

I KNOW THAT MOTION CARRIES IT WASN'T AS PAINFUL AS THERE'LL BE ANOTHER ROUND COMING SOON.

THE FIRST DISCUSSED CONSIDER AWARD OF CONTRACT RFP 2025 AND YOUR CONTRACT, THE PURCHASER WORLD GIRLS HAULING IS AN EXTENSION OR CURRENT VENDORS.

[38. Raylan Smith; Discuss/Consider award of contract for RFP 20-25: Annual Contract for Purchase of various road materials, hauling of road materials, road projects, and culverts.]

UH, WE DID HAVE AN UPDATE FROM HAMPTON AND THEN WE ALSO HAD SOME NEW VENDORS.

THIS WILL BE CONTRACTING PROCRASTINATING THROUGH SEPTEMBER 30TH OF 2021.

AND I'LL GET EVERYONE A CURRENT PROCEEDING AS WELL AS CONTACT INFORMATION FOR NEW VENDORS.

UH, IS YOUR EMOTION REGARDING AWARD OF CONTRACT? WE HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE THAT.

THERE'S A LIST OF 12.

ITEM 39, DISCUSS AND CONSIDER APPROVAL AWARD OF CONTRACT RFP 20 DASH 26 APPLICATION SERVICES DON'T WALK.

OH, WE HAVE MOTION TO APPROVE THOSE VENDORS THAT COMMISSIONED FROM COMMISSIONER BARBARA.

IS THERE A SECOND, SECOND, SECOND COMMISSIONER HUNTER DISCUSSION THOSE IN FAVOR, SIGNIFY BY SAYING AYE, MOTION CARRIES

[39. Raylan Smith; Discuss/Consider award of contract for RFP 20-26: Application and Administrative Services Community Development Bfock Grant Program]

START WITH GOOGLE AND PURCHASE OF 8.8 0.7 COVID-19 RESPONSIBILITY.

UM, THE EVALUATION COMMITTEE MET ON FRIDAY AND BASED ON THE EVALUATION NUMBERS, THEY ARE RECOMMENDING GRANT WORKS, UH, FOR NEGOTIATION CONTRACT OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES FOR COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM QUESTIONS.

UH, IS THERE A MOTION TO AWARD CONTRACT 20 DASH 26, SEVERAL COMMISSIONER DISCUSSION BY SAYING HI, LET ME

[40. Raylan Smith; Discuss/Consider approval of purchase under RFP 20-27: Kaufman County COVID-19 testing supplies, utilizing Local Government Code Section 262.0245, County purchase of an item for which the County receives no responsive bid.]

SO WE DID GO OUT FOR RFP OR COVID-19 TESTING SUPPLIES, AND THIS WAS GOING TO BE FOR THE COUNTY HEALTH OFFICIAL TO PROVIDE TESTING SUPPLIES TO SCHOOLS.

AND WE DID NOT RECEIVE ANY RESPONSES.

SO BASED ON LIBERAL GOVERNMENT CODE, BECAUSE WE RECEIVED NO RESPONSES, COMMISSIONER'S COURT CAN GRANT ME AUTHORITY TO PURCHASE THE SUPPLIES WITH VOTES BECAUSE WE DID FOLLOW THE PURCHASING LAWS.

UM, A LOT OF VENDORS CHOSE THIS PATH, ESPECIALLY WITH THE CODE SUPPLIES AND KNOWING THAT THEY DIDN'T HAVE TO BE A SOLICITED VENDOR.

UM, SO WE DID FOLLOW ALL THE PROCESSES AND MADE NOTE OF ALL THE NOTIFICATIONS AND, UM, SO WE WOULD BE ABLE TO USE THE VENDORS THAT DR BEARSHARE HAS USED.

YOU NEED TO BE ABLE TO PURCHASE THE SUPPLIES HE HAS PURCHASED IN THE PAST QUESTIONS, GREAT PROMOTION TO AUTHORIZE PURCHASE UNDER ART NET, ACTUALLY UNDER THE CODE, WHICH IS GOING TO BE A PART OF THE AUTHORITY TO MAKE THOSE PURCHASES MOTION.

I'LL MAKE THAT MOTION.

COMMISSIONER CAGE SECOND I'LL SECOND, SECOND COMMISSIONER DISCUSSION.

I WOULD JUST SAY JUDGE THAT, UH, AT OUR CONFERENCE, THEY, UH, THERE WAS A PRESENTATION BY THE DIRECTOR OF THE TEXAS EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT OFFICE AND BE INFORMED OF THE OPTIONS THAT THEY HAD MILLIONS OF UNITS OF PPE AND THAT SORT OF THING THAT WERE AVAILABLE AND THAT THEY WERE ACTUALLY OUT OF STORAGE SPACE AND THEY WERE LOOKING FOR PEOPLE TO COME AND TAKE THIS STUFF.

SO I WANT TO HAVE SPEED ON WHAT THESE PRODUCTS ARE.

YOU'RE NOT ABLE TO GET THEM FROM THE STATE.

THIS IS FOR ACTUALLY, THIS IS ACTUALLY FOR TEXTS TESTS.

HE HAS A RELATIONSHIP WITH.

I THINK THEY, I THINK HE MENTIONED THAT THEY HAD TESTING KITCHEN SO THEY CAN CALL HIM BECAUSE HE HAS A RELATIONSHIP WITH, SO WE HAVE ANYTHING ELSE.

SO WE HAVE A MOTION SECOND TO AUTHORIZE PURCHASES.

IS THERE A SECOND? I MEAN, IS, ARE THOSE PARENTS, YOU KNOW, ABOUT THE SINAI,

[01:45:01]

UH,

[41. Raylan Smith; Discuss/Consider permission to solicit RFP 21-01: Annual contract for lawn maintenance.]

DISCUSS, CONSIDER PERMISSION TO SOLICIT RFP ANNUAL CONTRACT FOR LAWN MAINTENANCE? SO WHAT WE HAVE DECIDED TO DO IS GO OUT FOR RFP.

UM, THIS IS GOING TO BE AN ENTIRE LIST OF ALL COUNTY PROPERTIES, INCLUDING THE SUB COURTHOUSES SOUTH CAMPUS.

WE'VE ALSO INCLUDED REFORM, UH, EOC AUDITS THAT WE HAVE, WE'RE GONNA BID OUT EACH LIGHT INDIVIDUALLY.

AND THEN THAT WAY, DEPENDING ON WHICH LOT IS NEEDED, UM, WE WILL HAVE INDIVIDUAL PROCESSING.

THIS WILL NOT BE A GUARANTEED CONTRACT.

IT WILL NOT BE A GUARANTEED ANNUAL CONTRACT, BUT IT WOULD BE ONE THAT WE COULD PIECEMEAL THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.

UM, SO THAT WE WILL HAVE PRICING ON EACH LOT.

AND, UH, WE WILL AWARD IT ONE CONTRACTOR, A AND MULTIPLE CONTRACTOR AWARD SO THAT IT WOULD BE BENEFICIAL FOR THAT CONTRACTOR TO HAVE A TWO YEAR CONTRACT WITH ACCOUNT.

DO YOU HELP KEEP THE PROSECUTOR? NO, IT'S NOT A GUARANTEED ANNUAL CONTRACT, BUT WITH US AWARDING IT TO ONE CONTRACTOR, IT WILL KEEP PRESSING DOWN.

OR THE BENEFIT THE BACKSTORY ON THIS IS OF COURSE WE LOST THE WE'VE LOST THE TRUSTEES OUT OF THE SHERIFF DEPARTMENT, BUT NOT ANY MORE BECAUSE OF THE EARLY AND THEN PROBATIONERS.

AND THIS WAS, THIS WAS AN AWFULLY, WE SPENT ALL MORNING TRYING TO GET SOMEBODY TO MOW WHERE FACILITIES, CONVERSATION, THAT ALMOST EVERYBODY WILL GET THERE.

I'M PROBABLY NOT TALK ABOUT THE SILAGE DEPARTMENT DOING IT, BUT IT'S ONE THING THAT YOU CAN GENERALLY GET CONTRACT PRETTY WELL.

THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE OUT THERE TO CONTRACT AND BOBBY AND I, OUR, OUR, OUR THOUGHT WAS THAT YOU GUYS HAVE TO ADD STAFF AND WE'D HAVE TO BUY EQUIPMENT AND STUFF AND WORK AND DO THE WINGING.

AND IT'S A SEASONAL THING.

AND I THINK THIS IS A GOOD PATH FORWARD, CONSTANTLY TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THESE GUYS, MAN, BUT I'VE BEEN TRYING TO GET THE MAIL, WHAT I DO HERE, BUT IT'S JUST ONE OF THOSE THINGS THAT SHOULDN'T BE SOMETHING WE SHOULD BE HAVING DISCUSSIONS ABOUT.

I'LL TELL YOU WHAT I DID USE IT AS A WAY TO GET OUT OF THE OFFICE.

I USE BOBBY'S A LOT MORE, I KNOW THIS IS ON RECORD, RIGHT? BUT I DIDN'T LIKE IT TOO MUCH.

TO DISCUSS, CONSIDER APPROVAL OF MODIFICATION OF THE TEXAS SOIL, WHATEVER WE WORE CONFIRMATION THAT .

SO WHAT'S, BEFORE US IS OPTIMIZED THE SOLICITATION OF REP 21 DASH OH ONE, IS THERE A MOTION MOVE FOR A SECOND, SECOND PHILLIPS DISCUSSION THOSE IN FAVOR, SAY HI

[42. Raylan Smith; Discuss/Consider approval of modification to TSSWCB Contract SUEFL11-REP-ST-004-19 & 8UEFL11-REP-ST2-013-20]

SO WE ARE STILL REPAIRING DAM THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY.

UM, THIS IS ACTUALLY GOING TO BE A DECREASE IN THIS CONTRACT.

WE'RE DECREASING THE TOTAL PROJECT BY, UH, $10,892.

UM, AND IT'S GOING TO EXTEND THE CONTRACT DATE FROM NOVEMBER 30TH THROUGH DECEMBER 5TH.

REALLY DOESN'T AFFECT A WHOLE LOT ABOUT THE CONTRACT, BUT WE DO HAVE TO HAVE THE SIGNATURES ON THE CONTRACT AUTHORITY BEEN APPROVED OBVIOUSLY BY THEIR BOARD.

UM, SO CAN WE GET FIVE FOR A 5% ADMINISTRATIVE FEE, RIGHT.

YOU'RE EARNING YOUR MONEY, RIGHT? BECAUSE LIKE THIS LOT OF PAPERWORK FOR DAMN WITH YOU, WHEN YOU SILENCE YOUR PHONE, LOTS OF FAMILY HERE.

COMMISSIONER HUNT.

YEP.

ALL RIGHT.

SO WHAT WE HAVE IS APPROVAL AND MONICA, KATE IN THE MODIFICATIONS IN THAT CONTRACT IS TO CHANGE YOUR EMOTION.

WE'LL MOVE FOR A SECOND.

MR. BARBER DISCUSSION THOSE IN FAVOR, AYE.

MOTION CARRIES

[43. Constable Johnson; Discuss/Consider approval of the K.C.F.W.S.D. NO. 1-C (Windmill Farms) Patrol contract FY 2021 operating budget which was approved and adopted by the governing body,]

THAT POSSIBLE.

JOHN SHOULD DISCUSS CONSIDER APPROVAL OF THE FARM'S PATROL CONTRACT.

[01:50:01]

OH, ROUTINELY KITCHENS, KRISTY TO CONSTABLE'S OFFICE.

I'LL BE SPEAKING ON THIS BEFORE THE CONSTABLE, UH, ALL THIS IS, IS THE BUDGET MODIFICATION BECAUSE OF THE LOGISTICS AND THE SCHEDULING BETWEEN THEIR BOARD AND WHEN THE BUDGET HAD TO BE POSTED HERE, UH, WE JUST COULDN'T GET IT TO BE APPROVED BY THEM TO BE POSTED TO YOU.

SO THAT'S ALL, THIS IS WORKING IN CONJUNCTION WITH KAREN'S TEAM ON GETTING THE BUDGETS DONE AND STREAMLINING EVERYTHING.

UH, IT'S KIND OF A NEW FORMAT THAT WE'VE, UH, CAME UP WITH ON THIS ONE.

SO THIS IS THE, UH, 2021 OPERATING BUDGET OR THAT MUD, WHICH CONSISTS OF THE WINDOW FORMS COMMUNITY QUESTIONS.

MIKE

[44. Constable Johnson; Discuss/Consider approval of the deputation of Robert D. Manor as a Deputy Constable to a newly created patrol contract position with the Kaufman County Precinct #2 Constable's Office.]

ROBERT WARREN AND JUDGE WARREN COMMISSIONERS.

UM, MR. MINER COMES FROM ROSE FROM THE COFFEE COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE.

HE'S GOT ALMOST 11 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE AND THE ULTIMATE INTERMEDIATE LICENSE.

UM, HE'S ALSO A GREAT ASSET DEPARTMENT

[45. Constable Johnson; Discuss/Consider approval of the transfer of Deputy Candy A. Richeson from a reserve Deputy Constable position to a full-time Deputy Constable position with the Kaufman County Precinct #2 Constable's Office that is currently vacant due to attrition.]

I'M 46 COMMISSIONER BARBER DISCUSSING SURE.

JUDGE CHENEY HAS BEEN EMPLOYED WITH US FOR A FEW YEARS.

UM, UNFORTUNATELY SHE STEPPED DOWN AS A FULL TIME DEPUTY.

SHE HAD A, UH, MEDICAL, UM, SITUATION THAT SHE HAD TO GET COMPLETED AND SHE'S GOT FULLY RELEASED FROM THAT.

SO WE CAST HER AS A RESERVE AND THEN SHE WAS ABLE TO COME IN AND DO A COUPLE OF THINGS ON OUR TIME.

UM, BUT SHE'S BEEN TREMENDOUS WITH OUR DEPARTMENTS, UM, AND WHAT OUR FULL RECOVERY AND RELEASE WE WOULD, UH, LIKE TO PUT HER BACK IN ANOTHER POSITION THAT BECAME QUESTIONS.

UH, IS THERE A MOTION BARBARA DISCUSSION THE SECOND TIME

[46. Commissioner Barber; Discuss/Consider approving temporary road closure of Colquitt Rd. closed east to west; North of Samuels Rd. from October 20, 2020 to November 20, 2020 due to bridge construction. Alternate routes are: FM 548 and FM 1392, with access to SH 205 and US 80.]

TEMPORARY YEAH, THIS IS ONE OF OUR BOND MONEY ROADS WE'RE WORKING ON AND IT IS GOING GREAT.

WE'RE DOWN NOW TO HAVE REPLACED A COUPLE OF BRIDGES.

AND, UH, OF COURSE I SUDDENLY HAVE TO DO ALL AT ONE TIME.

SO WE WILL HAVE ALREADY NOTIFIED EVERYBODY UP AND DOWN THE ROAD THAT WE APPROVED, THAT WE HAVE

[47. Judge Richards; Discuss/Consider amending the Commissioner Court meeting policy to disallow "yielding" of time during public comment.]

47.

UH, I'M AWARE OF THAT.

YOU KNOW, WE, WE DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING TO FIND IN OUR POLICY AND SYMBOLS TO INSERT A LINE.

YOU SAW IT IT'S ON PAGE ONE.

AND IT SAYS, SPEAKING TIME IS LIMITED TO THE GIVEN VEGETABLE.

IT MAY NOT BE GIVEN TO ANOTHER INDIVIDUAL.

I KNOW OTHER JURISDICTIONS HAVE THIS POLICY, THIS CONVENIENT TAMP OF HELP US PUBLIC SPEAKING TIME IS BURDENED INDIVIDUALS TO COME AND HAVE THEIR THREE KIDS.

IT'S ALSO INTENDED TO LIMIT PEOPLE FOR LONG SPEECHES.

SO SOME PEOPLE JUST DON'T WANT TO GET OUT THOUGHTS AND STUFF, DOG STEER, REALLY.

I MEAN, I THINK THAT WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING TO PROHIBIT AND PEOPLE GETTING SOMEBODY 30 MINUTES.

[01:55:01]

THAT'S TOTALLY UNREALISTIC.

IT'S JUST TO BE RANDOM.

BUT IF WE LIMITED IT TO ONE PERSON TO SIX MINUTES, WHATEVER.

SO SOMEONE THAT RANDOM PEOPLE JUST TO MAKE IT JUST .

I AGREE WITH YOU.

I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD TOTALLY TAKE THAT OPTION AWAY.

UM, I KIND OF LIKE THAT IDEA OF MAYBE SAYING, INSTEAD OF, LIKE YOU SAID, I JUST HAVE ONE PERSON SPEAKING 10 PEOPLE, AND WE CAN JUST NARROW THAT DOWN AND SAY, WELL, YOU GET SIX MINUTES, YOU GET WHATEVER, 10 MINUTES MAX OR SOMETHING, BECAUSE I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE SAYING.

I MEAN, IT CAN BE LONG AND DRAWN OUT, BUT I KNOW THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE THERE, THEY WILL HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY, BUT THEY JUST DON'T TO PUT IT IN WORDS.

THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET A TON OF PEOPLE TO SPEAK.

AND IT'S BETTER LATE TILL SOMEBODY ELSE'S THEY LET THEM OR, OR UP, I DO LIKE, CAUSE I MEAN, YOU MENTIONED THIS MEETINGS, YOU KNOW, IF EVERYBODY HAS THE SCREEN STAYS THE SAME PRINCIPLES OR IDEAS, INSTEAD OF EVERYBODY COME UP SAYING THE SAME THING, LET'S JUST GET YOU UP A LEADER.

THAT ONE PERSON PERSON THAT'S COME UP THREE MINUTES, 30 MINUTES, PERHAPS WE ADJUSTED SO THAT THE TIME COULD BE ALLOTTED, BUT NO MORE THAN 60 MINUTES OR 10 MINUTES OR SOMETHING, A MAXIMUM AMOUNT PER SPEAKER, THREE MINUTES.

NO ONE PERSON COULD SPEAK MORE THAN NINE MINUTES, RIGHT? YEAH.

DOES THAT MAKE SURE THAT'S REPRESENTATIVE OF THE RATES IN THE GROUP? NO, MAKE THE SPEAKING TIME IS LIMITED WITH INDIVIDUAL AND I WOULD SAY SOMETHING MORE LIKE, AND UH, OKAY.

NO ONE PERSON CAN GET, WELL, ALL YIELDED TIME CANNOT EXCEED NINE.

IT FIELDED TO ANOTHER THAN NOT EXCEED NINE.

SAY THAT, SAY THAT AGAIN.

YIELDED TIME.

TOTAL COULD NOT EXCEED NINE MINUTES.

THAT'S IT? YEAH.

YOU GOT PEOPLE ALWAYS GO TIME IS TO BE YIELDED.

THE TOTAL TIME CAN NOT EXCEED.

YEAH, THAT'S BETTER.

IF AT TIMES, IF INDIVIDUAL TIME IS YIELDED, TOTAL, A LOT OF TIME CANNOT EXCEED MORE THAN NINE MINUTES.

DO YOU ALL AGREE TO THAT CONCEPT? WE CAN ADJUST THE WORDING.

WHY DON'T WE TRY THAT? YEP.

WE CAN AGREE.

AND WHEN WE GET TO DISCUSS GOOD MORNING.

SO I WANT TO LOOK AT OUR EMOTIONS.

WE CHANGE OUR, WE CHANGE OUR, OUR POLICY LIMIT.

THE AMOUNT OF TIME YOU NEED.

ONE PERSON CAN SPEAK
