I WAS ACTUALLY A YOUNG COUNCIL MEMBER WHEN WE PASSED 100000 PEOPLE BACK IN 2008, AND WE HAD THAT CELEBRATION 12 YEARS AGO. AS FAR AS THAT MILESTONE. AND I ACTUALLY REMEMBER IT BECAUSE IT WAS LIKE THE LIGHT SWITCH WENT ON. AS SOON AS WE HIT ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND PEOPLE, THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN PEOPLE STARTED PAYING ATTENTION TO FRISCO. THE NEWS STARTED COVERING US. WE STARTED TO HEAR NEWS STORIES AND SO FORTH. AND SO TONIGHT WE'RE CELEBRATING ANOTHER MILESTONE, WHICH WE HAVE OFFICIALLY PASSED TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND PEOPLE.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, JEFF CHENEY, MAYOR OF THE CITY OF FRISCO ON BEHALF OF THE CITY COUNCIL AND THE CITIZENS OF FRISCO, DO HEREBY BESTOW SPECIAL RECOGNITION TO MIKE CRAWFORD FOR 20 YEARS OF SERVICE DEDICATED TO PUBLIC SAFETY IN FRISCO AND DO HEREBY PROCLAIM NOVEMBER 17TH, 2020 AS MIKE CRAWFORD DAY. CONGRATULATIONS, SIR. [APPLAUSE] LOVE FOR YOU TO INTRODUCE YOUR FAMILY, BUT WE ALSO HAVE TO HEAR ABOUT THE STORY MENTIONED IN THE PROCLAMATION ABOUT WHEN YOU PERFORM CPR. SO. WE WERE DOING--. WELL, FIRST OF ALL, LET ME INTRODUCE MY FAMILY. THEY'RE THE BIG PART. SO THIS IS MY SON, HAYDEN. THIS IS WYATT, ASHLEIGH, AND MY LOVELY WIFE, JEANETTE. SO THE CPR STORY, IT WAS FOURTH OF JULY WEEKEND FREEDOM FEST, I THINK IT WAS ACTUALLY WAS ONE OF THOSE YEARS WHERE WE ACTUALLY DID ON THE FOURTH OF JULY. AND I WAS THE ONE OF THE WATCH COMMANDERS ON DUTY. AND I HAPPENED TO JUST BE IN THE AREA OF A CALL WHERE THERE WAS ONE OF OUR CITIZENS WAS AND HE'S AN OLD TIME FRISCO RESIDENT. HE WAS ACTUALLY WATCHING THE FIREWORKS AND SUFFERING FROM A MEDICAL EMERGENCY. WHEN I GOT THERE, HIS HEART WASN'T BEATING. SO WE STARTED CPR. AND IT WAS A ROUGH DAY FOR THEIR FAMILY BECAUSE HE WAS SUFFERING. BUT WE WERE ABLE TO GET HIM, BRING HIM BACK AND KEEP HIM GOING. I GOT HIM TO THE HOSPITAL. AND THEN WHILE HE WAS IN THE HOSPITAL, HIS DAD ACTUALLY HAD A HEART ATTACK AT THE SAME TIME. SO THE BOTH OF THEM ENDED UP BEING IN THE HOSPITAL TOGETHER. BUT TO THIS DAY, THEY'RE BOTH STILL ALIVE AND BOTH KICKING. AND WE HAVE CONVERSATIONS PERIODICALLY ABOUT HOW THINGS ARE GOING. BUT WHAT'S IT BEEN LIKE SERVING FRISCO FOR 20 YEARS? SO, 20 YEARS AGO, I WAS WORKING FOR ANOTHER AGENCY, YOU KNOW, I WAS REALLY HAPPY THERE AND I HEARD THE WONDERS OF THIS COMMUNITY NAMED FRISCO. AT THE TIME, I REALLY DIDN'T KNOW THAT MUCH ABOUT IT. FRISCO'S PRETTY SMALL. WE GOT HERE WE HAD APPROXIMATELY FORTY TWO OFFICERS GIVE OR TAKE. YOU KNOW, BUT I PRAYED. I PRAYED ABOUT IT. AND THE LORD LED ME UP HERE TO FRISCO. AND MY FIRST TWO WEEKS HERE, I KIND OF REALIZED I MADE THE RIGHT DECISION. I DIDN'T NECESSARILY HAVE THE SUPPORT FROM THE PREVIOUS AGENCY THAT I HAD WORKED AT. AND WHEN I GET HERE WITHIN MY FIRST TWO WEEKS, ONE OF THE CITIZENS INVITED ME IN FOR A HOT APPLE CIDER. AND THAT JUST FLOORED ME BECAUSE I WASN'T USED TO PEOPLE LOOKING AT ME AND SAYING, HEY, COME HERE, LET ME GIVE YOU SOMETHING TO DRINK. AND IT WAS A VERY ENJOYABLE EXPERIENCE. AND OVER THE LAST 20 YEARS, I'VE HAD MORE BLESSINGS THAN I COULD POSSIBLY MENTION. I MET MY WIFE, WHO ALSO WORKS FOR THE CITY OF FRISCO. AND AS A RESULT, I NOW HAVE A FAMILY. AND IT'S BEEN A CONTINUED BLESSING TO ME. I'VE HAD THE LEADER, I'VE HAD SUPPORT FROM ALL FACETS OF LEADERSHIP, THE SUPPORT OF THE COMMUNITY. WHEN I WAS IN THE ARMY, I LEARNED THAT I HAD A HEART FOR SERVICE AND THE CITY OF FRISCO AND THE COMMUNITY OF FRISCO HAS ALWAYS BEEN THERE FOR ME, AND I TRY TO GIVE BACK EVERY CHANCE I GET. SO THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH. [APPLAUSE] [00:50:16] ONE MORE THING I'D LOVE TO SHARE, AS YOU KNOW, BRIAN LIVINGSTON AND MYSELF, WE GOT TO MAKE THE SWEARING IN THIS WEEK OF OUR NINE NEWEST POLICE OFFICERS HERE IN THE CITY OF FRISCO. AND THE LAST COUPLE OF SWEARING INS THAT WE'VE HAD, IT'S BEEN VERY SIMILAR STORIES, IS THAT THEY VIEW FRISCO AS A DESTINATION DEPARTMENT BECAUSE THEY KNOW WHEN THEY COME HERE THAT THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE THE SUPPORT OF LEADERSHIP HERE IN THIS COMMUNITY. BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE SUPPORT FROM THE COMMUNITY. AND SO THAT'S BASICALLY THE STORY YOU SHARED AS FAR AS WHY YOU REALIZE THAT FRISCO WAS THE RIGHT PLACE. BUT WE WANT FRISCO POLICE DEPARTMENT TO BE A PLACE THAT OTHERS WANT TO FOLLOW IN YOUR FOOTSTEPS AND WORK HERE FOR 20 YEARS PLUS. SO, AGAIN, THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE TO THE CITIZENS OF FRISCO. LET'S GIVE THEM ONE MORE ROUND OF APPLAUSE. [APPLAUSE] THANK YOU ALL FOR THAT. AND IT IS SEVEN THIRTY, SO WE'LL JUMP STRAIGHT INTO CITIZEN INPUT. [CITIZEN INPUT (to begin approximately at 7:30 p.m.)] SO SO FAR I HAVE TWO BLUE CARDS TURNED IN. SO IF THERE'S ANYONE ELSE THAT'S HERE TO SPEAK, THESE ARE THE ONLY TWO I HAVE RECORDED, IF YOU WOULD, PLEASE, WHEN I CALL YOUR NAME, I'M GOING TO CALL YOU BOTH DOWN. AND IF YOU WOULD, WHEN YOU STEP TO THE MIC, IF YOU WOULD, PLEASE GIVE YOUR NAME AND YOUR ADDRESS. AND WE HAVE TAMARA [INAUDIBLE], IS THAT CORRECT? AND THEN JESSICA [INAUDIBLE]. AGAIN, IF YOU COULD GIVE YOUR RIGHT UP HERE TO THE MIC, SORRY. GIVE YOUR NAME AND YOUR ADDRESS AND COUNCILMAN SOWELL WILL GIVE YOU THE--. MY NAME IS TAMARA [INAUDIBLE] AND MY ADDRESS IS 480 COUNTY ROAD 3060 [INAUDIBLE], TEXAS. I DID LIVED IN FRISCO LITTLE ELM FOR OVER 15 YEARS. AND WE LOVE IT. WE MISS IT. BUT WE WANTED A SMALL RANCH. SO THAT'S WHERE WE'RE OUT NOW, IN [INAUDIBLE]. GO AHEAD AND GIVE YOUR REMARKS AND COUNCILMAN SOWELL WILL DO THE TIMER. WELL, SO I FEEL HONORED TO BE HERE, TO BE ABLE TO SHARE WITH YOU WHAT I'M PASSIONATE ABOUT, WHICH IS BREEDING DOGS. I BEGAN BREEDING IN 93. I BEGAN BREEDING BISHAN FRISE'S IN 2006, SO. I FEEL LIKE IT'S IMPORTANT FOR ME TO SHARE WITH YOU WHAT'S IMPORTANT TO ME IN REGARDS TO THE BREEDING. PASSIONATE ABOUT THE BREED, I HAVE STUDIED AND RESEARCHED A LOT OF BOOKS AND SPOKEN AND SHARED TIME WITH A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT HAVE BEEN MENTORS TO ME, BOTH IN THE SHOW INDUSTRY AND IN THE SERVICE INDUSTRY IN REGARDS TO NOT JUST CONFIRMATION, BUT RESCUE. SO WHEN WE HAVE OUR PUPPIES, IT'S IMPORTANT FOR US TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY'RE HEALTHY. WE MAKE SURE THAT WHEN THEY'RE NINE WEEKS OLD, THESE PUPPIES, THEY GET A WELL CHECK. SO A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT VETS WILL HAVE, YOU KNOW, WE'LL HAVE THEM LOOK OVER THEM AND CHECK OFF WHETHER THE PUPPIES ARE HEALTHY OR NOT. I HAVE NEVER HAD A PUPPY HAD PROBLEMS WITH COMMON LIKE DISTEMPER AND GIARDIA AND THINGS OF THIS NATURE THAT I'VE HEARD A HANDFUL OF CLIENTS OVER THE YEARS COMMENT ABOUT DOGS, PUPPIES AND DOGS THAT THEY'VE PURCHASED FROM PET STORES. SO, YOU KNOW, IT CONCERNS ME BECAUSE I THINK THAT WHEN YOU'RE A BREEDER, IT'S IMPORTANT FOR ONE TO KNOW EVERYTHING THERE IS TO KNOW ABOUT THAT BREED, BUT TO BETTER THE BREED. I HAVE A HANDBOOK THAT I GIVE OUT TO THE FAMILIES THAT HAVE BEEN APPROVED. I HAVE AN APPLICATION THAT OUR FAMILIES FILL OUT AND WE LIKE TO EITHER MEET WITH THEM IN PERSON OR OVER THE PHONE AND TO VET THESE THESE FAMILIES. THERE ARE BREEDS THAT DO WELL THAT ARE OK WITH BEING LEFT ALONE FOR HOURS, LONG HOURS AT A TIME. BUT THE BISHAN FRISE IS NOT ONE OF THOSE BREEDS. THEY ACT OUT AND GET DEPRESSED WHEN THEY'RE LEFT ALONE. SO IT'S IMPORTANT TO VET OUR FAMILIES. [00:55:01] SO WE HAVE AN APPLICATION. WE ALSO HAVE A HEALTH GUARANTEE, WHICH, YOU KNOW, IF A VET DEEMS THAT THERE IS SOMETHING THAT I'VE DONE AS A BREEDER, THEN I WILL REPLACE THE PUPPY FREE OF CHARGE. AT THIS POINT IN TIME, I'VE NEVER HAD THAT HAPPEN. OUR PUPPIES ARE HEALTHY, OUR ADULTS GET TESTED FOR THE BISHAN FRISE SPECIFICALLY HAS PROBLEMS WITH EYES, KNEES AND HIPS. SO WE GET THEM, I TAKE THEM TO SPECIALIST ANIMAL EYE SPECIALIST AND, YOU KNOW, AND HAVE THEM TESTED. AND THEN THAT IS ADDED TO THEIR REGISTRATION PAPERS. ANYWAY, I AM GOING TO LEAVE A HANDBOOK AND APPLICATION AND THE HEALTH GUARANTEE WITH THE SECRETARY. SO IF ANYONE HAS ANY QUESTIONS, IF THEY WANT TO REVIEW ANY OF THIS OR THEY WANT TO CALL IN, IF THEY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I'LL BE GLAD TO ANSWER THOSE FOR THEM. JESSICA [INAUDIBLE]. GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS JESSICA [INAUDIBLE] THREE SIX ZERO NINE TATUM DRIVE IN MCKINNEY AND I AM ON THE BOARD FOR DOG [INAUDIBLE] RESCUE, A LOCAL NONPROFIT DOG RESCUE THAT RESCUES DOGS FROM ALL SORTS OF SITUATIONS. BUT WE HAVE A LOT OF EXPERIENCE WITH AND A PASSION FOR DOGS THAT ARE TRAPPED IN PUPPY MILLS. I WAS ASKED BY SHANNON GREER TO SPEAK TO YOU ABOUT THE CONDITIONS AND LIFE OF THESE MILL [INAUDIBLE] THAT I HAVE SEEN. THESE DOGS ARE THE PARENTS OF PUPPIES SOLD AT THE PET LAND HERE IN FRISCO AND OTHERS ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. FIRST OF ALL, YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND THAT PUPPY MILLS ARE GENERALLY LICENSED BY AND OVERSEEN BY THE USDA. BUT THE USDA LICENSE REQUIREMENTS ARE THE BARE MINIMUM REQUIRED TO KEEP DOGS ALIVE. THE DOGS ARE SEEN AS LIVESTOCK, AND THE ONLY REQUIREMENTS FOR THEIR LIVING CONDITIONS ARE FOOD, WATER AND A CAGE THAT IS SIX INCHES TALLER AND SIX INCHES LONGER THAN THE DOG'S BODY, WHICH IS REALLY ONLY BIG ENOUGH FOR THEM TO STAND UP AND TURN AROUND. THEY'RE NOT GIVEN THE LOVE AND CARE THAT WE THINK OF WHEN WE THINK OF OUR OWN DOGS OR WHAT A BASIC HUMANE STANDARD OF CARE IS. ADDITIONALLY, THESE FACILITIES ARE INSPECTED BY THE USDA, BUT THERE ARE ONLY APPROXIMATELY 115 INSPECTORS TO INSPECT THE 2423 COMMERCIAL BREEDERS, WITH AN ESTIMATED TWO MILLION DOGS, PLUS THE ZOOS AND LABORATORIES ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. MATHEMATICALLY SPEAKING, THE INSPECTOR WON'T BE COMING VERY OFTEN, AND EVIDENCE SHOWS CITATIONS ARE MEANINGLESS AND VERY FEW BREEDERS WHO ARE CITED ARE EVER SHUT DOWN. KEEPING ALL THIS IN MIND, LET ME JUST SHARE WITH YOU WHAT I'VE PERSONALLY WITNESSED AT AN AUCTION HOUSE IN MISSOURI. I HAVE ATTENDED AUCTIONS MANY TIMES OVER THE LAST FOUR YEARS WHERE THESE MILL OWNERS SELL THEIR BREEDING STOCK TO EACH OTHER. WHEN RESCUES LIKE MINE ARE ABLE TO ATTEND SOME OF THESE DOGS ARE LUCKY ENOUGH TO HAVE THEIR FREEDOM BOUGHT. IT IS ONLY THEN THAT THEY CAN FINALLY RECEIVE ALL THE MEDICAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL TREATMENT THEY NEED TO LIVE OUT THEIR REMAINING DAYS WITH A FAMILY WHO LOVES THEM. THESE MILL OWNERS THERE TO SELL THEIR STOCK INCLUDES SOME OF THE ONES LISTED AS THE BREEDERS ON THE INFO SOLD WITH PUPPIES BY PETLAND IN FRISCO. YODER, GRABER AND MILLER ARE WELL-KNOWN LAST NAMES IN THIS INDUSTRY. I HAVE SAT SHOULDER TO SHOULDER WITH THEM ON MANY OCCASIONS. THESE ARE LARGE AMISH FAMILIES AND THEY'RE ALL IN THE BUSINESS OF BREEDING DOGS FOR PROFIT REGARDLESS OF THEIR HEALTH OR WELL-BEING. I REALIZE THAT PET LAND CLAIMS THAT THEY ONLY BUY FROM REPUTABLE BREEDERS, BUT I ASSURE YOU THAT IS NOT THE CASE. THEIR OWN DOCUMENTATION PROVES IT. THEY BUY FROM MILL OWNERS LIKE AND INCLUDING THESE. IN ADDITION, THEY BUY FROM PREFERRED PETS, A BROKERAGE COMPANY THAT BUYS FROM MILLS AND SELLS TO PET STORES. ALSO LISTED ON PAPERWORK FROM PETLAND IN FRISCO. REPRESENTATIVES FOR PREFERRED PETS HAVE ALSO SAT IN THE AUCTION HOUSE WITH ME ADVERTISING THEIR SERVICES, WHICH IS JUST A MIDDLEMAN BETWEEN THE MILL AND THE STORE. THESE MILL OWNERS ARE SELLING THEIR PUPPIES FOR A FEW HUNDRED DOLLARS EACH. BUT THAT PUPPY, ASSUMING IT SURVIVES ITS MANY INFIRMITIES AND ITS LONG TRANSPORT FROM MILL TO STORE, MANY DO NOT. IT'S PRICE TAG WILL BE MARKED UP MANY THOUSANDS TO SELL TO UNSUSPECTING AND UNINFORMED BUYERS. THE DOGS I HAVE SEEN AND BEEN LUCKY ENOUGH TO RESCUE ARE THE PARENTS OF THESE PUPPIES SOLD TO PET STORES LIKE AND INCLUDING PETLAND. THEY ARE PUPPY MAKING MACHINES. THAT IS THEIR ONLY VALUE, THEIR SOLE REASON FOR EXISTENCE. NEARLY EVERY DOG IN THESE FACILITIES HAS AT LEAST ONE, IF NOT MANY, HEALTH OR SOCIAL PROBLEMS. I HAVE SEEN DOGS WITH HEALTH ISSUES THAT INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO GIARDIA, [INAUDIBLE], BOTH PARASITES, UPPER RESPIRATORY INFECTIONS, PARVO, PNEUMONIA, EAR INFECTIONS, EYE INFECTIONS, DRY EYE [INAUDIBLE], CATARACTS, SKIN INFECTION, URINE SCALD, TUMORS, ROTTEN OR MISSING TEETH SOMETIMES SO ROTTEN THAT THEIR JAWBONE IS EATEN AWAY TO MUSH OR INFECTIOUS MATTER IS ALL THE WAY INTO THEIR EYE SOCKET. MISSING EARS, EYES, TOES, TESTICLES, DOGS THAT ARE RIPPED OPEN BY ANOTHER DOG WITH EITHER CURRENT WOUNDS OR OBVIOUS SCARS, DOGS WITH SIDE C-SECTION SCARS. THIS MEANS THAT THEY'VE HAD SO MANY C SECTIONS THAT THERE'S TOO MUCH SCAR TISSUE ON THEIR [01:00:02] BELLY. SO THEY START CUTTING THE SIDE TO GET THE PUPPIES OUT. NEUROLOGICAL PROBLEMS, HEAD TILTS, WOBBLES, HYDROCEPHALUS, DEAFNESS, BLINDNESS. ONE WE GOT WAS DEAF AND BLIND. SO IMAGINE HOW THAT WORKS FOR HER LIVING IN A CAGE HER WHOLE LIFE. HERNIAS, BREAST CANCER'S, OVERGROWN TOENAILS, HEART MURMURS, HEART [INAUDILKE] AND EVERY OTHER HEART CONDITION YOU CAN IMAGINE. RECTAL PROLAPSE, VAGINAL PROLAPSE, CRIPPLING ARTHRITIS, MALFORMED FEET AND MUSCLES FROM STANDING ON WIRE THEIR WHOLE LIVES OR BEING IN A CAGE THAT'S TOO SMALL. DOGS THAT HAVE BEEN MENTALLY BROKEN FROM NEGLECT AND NOT BEING SOCIALIZED OR HAVING SPENT ANY TIME WITH A KIND PERSON OUTSIDE OF A CAGE. THESE DOGS ARE TERRIFIED, SOMETIMES EVEN ALMOST CATATONIC, SOME OF WHICH IS IRREPARABLE. I COULD GO ON AND ON. THEY ARE LITERALLY BRED TO DEATH. DOGS AS OLD AS TEN BEING SOLD PREGNANT. THINK ABOUT HER CHURNING OUT TWO LITTERS A YEAR FOR THE LAST NINE YEARS, LIVING IN A CAGE. THAT'S ALL SHE KNOWS. THE ONE THAT STICKS WITH ME IS A SHIBA INU ON THE TABLE WITH A DANGLING FRONT LEG, UNUSABLE AND OBVIOUSLY BROKEN AND PAINFUL. I ASKED THE BREEDER WHAT THE DEAL WITH THAT WAS, SHE RESPONDED, IT'S MOTHER STEPPED ON IT WHEN IT WAS A BABY, BUT IT SEEMS FINE. OBVIOUSLY THE LEG WAS BROKEN AND NEVER TREATED. THE THING YOU HEAR IN THERE OVER AND OVER REGARDING ALL OF THESE CONDITIONS IS THAT'S NOT WHERE THE MONEY IS MADE. THAT IS ALL THESE PEOPLE CARE ABOUT, NOT THE HEALTH, WELL-BEING, TEMPERAMENT, GENETICS, COMFORT OR MIND OF THEM, JUST PUPPY MAKING MACHINES FOR PEOPLE WHO DON'T KNOW A BETTER. FIVE MINUTES IS NOT LONG ENOUGH TO DESCRIBE THE HORRORS THAT I'VE SEEN AND THE HORRORS THESE DOGS HAVE TO ENDURE AND ARE CURRENTLY ENDURING THIS MINUTE. I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS OR PROVIDE YOU WITH ANY KIND OF DOCUMENTATION TO BACK UP WHAT I'M TELLING YOU. I'M STANDING HERE TELLING YOU NOW SO YOU KNOW BETTER. WHEN YOU KNOW BETTER, YOU DO BETTER. PLEASE OUTLAW THE SALE OF PUPPIES IN FRISCO AND DO YOUR PART TO NOT PARTICIPATE IN THIS PRACTICE. FRISCO IS BETTER THAN THIS. OTHER CITIES IN THE METROPLEX--. MA'AM, CAN YOU WRAP IT UP? WE ONLY FIVE--. I GOT TWO SENTENCES. OTHER CITIES IN THE METROPLEX, THE STATE AND THE COUNTRY HAVE ALREADY PAVED THE WAY AND LED BY EXAMPLE, DOING WHAT THEY CAN TO STOP THIS. LET'S BE PART OF THE SOLUTION AND NOT BE ANOTHER CITY TURNING A BLIND EYE. THANK YOU. [APPLAUSE] ARE THERE ANY OTHER BLUE CARDS? THAT'S ALL I HAVE HERE. THAT WILL MOVE US INTO OUR REPORT SECTION. ITEM EIGHT IS THE BUDGET STATUS REPORT, PRELIMINARY SEPTEMBER 30TH AND BUDGET STATUS [8. Budget Status Report Preliminary September 30, 2020 and Budget Status Report October 31, 2020.] REPORT FOR OCTOBER 31ST, 2020. GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. I JUST WANTED TO GIVE A SHOUT OUT TO LAUREN. WE'VE WORKED TOGETHER FOR A LONG TIME IN PAYROLL AND H.R. AND SOMETIMES WE DON'T SEE EYE TO EYE, BUT I THINK WE ALWAYS HAVE THE BEST INTEREST OF THE CITY'S EMPLOYEES, YOU KNOW, IN OUR HEARTS. SO I'VE ENJOYED AND I'VE LEARNED A LOT FROM HER. SHE'S A VERY PROFESSIONAL H.R. DIRECTOR. OUR END OF MONTH SEPTEMBER. IT'S A PRELIMINARY NUMBERS. WE DID FINISH THE YEAR BETTER THAN WE HAD PROJECTED. AND I GAVE SOME EXPLANATION TO YOU ON THAT. WE WILL HAVE A DECEMBER FIRST BUDGET AUDIT COMMITTEE MEETING WHERE WE WILL HAVE OUR FIRST BUDGET AMENDMENT FOR THE YEAR TO DO OUR CARRYFORWARD POS. AND WE'LL TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT WHAT YOU MIGHT WANT TO DO WITH THE EXCESS REVENUES OVER EXPENSES IN THE GENERAL FUND. I JUST WANT TO POINT OUT THAT IT'S AROUND FIVE MILLION DOLLARS, WHICH IS THE CARES ACT FUNDING THAT WE RECEIVE FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. SO IF WE HADN'T RECEIVED THAT CARES ACT FUNDING, WE WOULDN'T HAVE ENDED THE YEAR THAT WELL. [INAUDIBLE] ATTACHED. OUR SALES TAX NUMBERS THAT WE GOT ON WEDNESDAY, LAST WEDNESDAY FOR THE TWO MONTHS OF THE NEW YEAR WERE A LITTLE ALMOST ONE PERCENT HIGHER THAN LAST YEAR. SO I THINK THAT'S POSITIVE CONSIDERING THE TIMES THAT WE'RE IN. LET'S SEE. I ALSO ADDED TO THE OCTOBER REPORT A BACK PAGE THAT JUST GIVES SOME DEPARTMENT HIGHLIGHTS FOR YOU. SO IF YOU'RE INTERESTED IN SOME OF THE THINGS GOING ON IN OUR DEPARTMENT, I'M GOING TO TRY TO DO THAT EVERY MONTH. FINALLY, WE PUT THE BUDGET IN BRIEF AND THE BUDGET BOOKS AT YOUR STATION TONIGHT. THE BUDGET BOOK IS VERY HEAVY. AND IF YOU WANT TO JUST LEAVE IT THERE AND USE YOUR ELECTRONIC VERSION, THAT'S FINE. WE'LL PICK THEM UP. OK? BUT THIS YEAR IS THE FIRST YEAR WE'VE DONE THE BUDGET IN BRIEF, WHICH WE'RE REAL EXCITED ABOUT THIS. WE DID THIS TOTALLY IN-HOUSE. WELL, THE COVER WAS DESIGNED BY [INAUDIBLE] CONSULTANTS, BUT OUR STAFF DID THIS IN-HOUSE. AND THEN ADAM [INAUDIBLE] AT THE LIBRARY, A SENIOR LIBRARIAN, HE ACTUALLY BOUND IT FOR US IN-HOUSE. SO IT SAVED US A LOT OF MONEY. SO I HOPE YOU'RE PLEASED WITH THAT. THE BUDGET DOCUMENT IN THE BUDGET AND BRIEF WILL BE ON THE CITY'S WEBSITE TOMORROW. TANYA WAS THIS AFTERNOON JUST BOOKMARKING PAGES AND, YOU KNOW, GETTING IT READY TO TO FINALIZE TO PUT OUT ON THE WEBSITE. AND, YOU KNOW, AGAIN, JENNY TANYA [INAUDIBLE] MEGAN IN OUR DEPARTMENT AND ADAM DID A [01:05:01] GREAT JOB WITH THAT. AND THAT'S ALL I HAD. I'D BE GLAD TO ANSWER ANY-- OH, ONE OTHER THING, WE'RE GOING TO BE BRINGING TO YOU TWO ORDINANCES ON DECEMBER 1ST FOR YOU TO CONSIDER A BOND SALE IN DECEMBER. AND S&P WENT AHEAD AND REAFFIRMED OUR TRIPLE-A RATING FOR THAT BOND SALE. WE HAVEN'T HEARD FROM [INAUDIBLE] YET, BUT I JUST WANTED TO SHARE THAT WITH YOU AS WELL. AND I'D BE GLAD TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. WHAT BOND SALE WILL THAT BE FOR? IT'S FOR THE 86 MILLION NGOS, WHICH INCLUDES THE LIBRARY AND THE COS OF 23 MILLION FOR THE UTILITY FUND. YES, SIR. YOU'VE BEEN CONFIRMED A RATE YET ON THOSE OR NOT YET? S&P CONFIRMED OUR WRITING OF TRIPLE A AND WE HAVEN'T HEARD BACK FROM [INAUDIBLE]. I MEANT RATING. OH, NO. IT'LL BE A COMPETITIVE SALE ON DECEMBER 2ND IF YOU APPROVE THE ORDINANCES ON DECEMBER 1ST FOR US TO PROCEED. QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? YEAH. I JUST HAVE ONE, AND THAT IS I THINK GOVERNMENT HAS A TENDENCY TO BE LOOKED AT AS INEFFICIENT AND NOT CONSCIOUS OF THE MONEY THAT'S BEING SPENT AND UNABLE TO OPERATE IN A WAY THAT WOULD BE EXPECTED FROM A BUSINESS. AND OFTENTIMES RESIDENTS AND CITIZENS WILL LOOK FOR THOSE THAT HAVE SUCCESS IN BUSINESS TO PARLAY THAT SUCCESS IN GOVERNMENT. I WOULD SAY THAT, YOU KNOW, BASED ON MY NINE YEARS ON THE COUNCIL, I'VE NOT SEEN A TEAM IN GOVERNMENT THAT HAS PULLED TOGETHER AND FOUND, YOU KNOW, DIMES WERE ONLY PENNIES WERE TO BE FOUND AND TO BE ABLE TO REALLY ENSURE THAT OUR CITY IS NOT ONLY SUCCESSFUL, BUT MEET THE LEVEL OF SUCCESS THAT HAS HIGH EXPECTATIONS BY THE RESIDENTS HERE. AND, YOU KNOW, IN A YEAR LIKE THIS, WHERE WE HAD TOTALLY UNFORESEEN SITUATION WITH COVID-19 AND IT LASTING PROBABLY A LOT LONGER THAN ANYONE HAD EXPECTED IT TO, YOU AND YOUR TEAM HAVE CONSISTENTLY DELIVERED AND ENSURED THAT OUR RESIDENTS LIVE NOT ONLY-- FOUND THE MONEY TO LIVE IN A PLACE THAT'S SAFE, CLEAN, EFFICIENT, HIRING THE BEST STAFF AND DELIVERING THE BEST SERVICES SO NONE OF THAT CAN BE DONE WITHOUT FUNDS. AND THAT'S ALL AT A TIME WHERE, YOU KNOW, TAX RATES ARE NOT INCREASING. SO TO BE ABLE TO SQUEEZE AS MUCH OUT OF A, YOU KNOW, OUT OF THE BUDGET AS POSSIBLE, IT CAN BE VERY DIFFICULT. AND I HAVE NOTHING BUT COMMENDATIONS, YOU KNOW, FOR YOU AND THE TEAM AND FOR WHAT THEY'VE DONE AND ALL THE CITIZENS AND RESIDENTS OF FRISCO, FOR SURE, I THINK WOULD BE VERY THANKFUL. AND I'M SURE THEY WOULD WANT TO SHAKE YOUR HAND AND THANK YOU AND YOUR ENTIRE TEAM FOR ALL THAT THEY'VE DONE. SO I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO, AS A FUTURE RESIDENT, ONLY LOOKING FOR NINE MORE YEARS, 90 MORE YEARS OF EFFICIENCY. BUT THANK YOU ALL FOR WHAT YOU AND THE TEAM HAVE DONE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE AND SUPPORT TO COUNCILMAN NELSON. AND NOW YOU SERVED ON OUR BUDGET AND AUDIT FOR A WHILE. SO WE APPRECIATE YOUR SERVICE. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THAT'LL MOVE US TO ITEM NINE, THE FIRE DEPARTMENT MONTHLY REPORT ON INCIDENT RESPONSES AND [9. Fire Department monthly report on Incident Responses and Education Activities for the month of October 2020.] EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES FOR THE MONTH OF OCTOBER. GOOD EVENING MAYOR AND COUNCIL. YOU HAVE YOUR REPORT, JUST A COUPLE OF HIGHLIGHTS AND ECHO [INAUDIBLE] COMMENTS TO APPLAUD AND MY CONGRATULATIONS ON THE 20 YEARS OF SERVICE. WELL DESERVED. JUST A COUPLE OF THINGS THIS MONTH. CAN WE JUST GET ADVANCE ONE? THIS IS NOT WORKING UP HERE. OK, WE GET SO TESTING UPDATE. I'M GOING TO TALK TO YOU A LITTLE BIT [INAUDIBLE] WE MOVE OUR TESTING SITE FROM DR. PEPPER BALL PARK TO TOYOTA STADIUM IN ABOUT TWO WEEKS. WE'VE TESTED OVER 12000 FOLKS OUT THERE. AND SINCE WE'VE STARTED THE TESTING PROGRAM AUGUST 3RD, WE'VE TESTED ALMOST FIFTY SIX THOUSAND PEOPLE SINCE AUGUST, WHICH IS A LOT OF TESTS. THEY STARTED OUT WITH ABOUT 500 TESTS [INAUDIBLE] AND IT IS WORKING WITH THE TESTING COMPANY OUT THERE. THIS IS PROVIDED BY THE STATE OF TEXAS AND THEY'RE PART OF AN EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT. ABSOLUTELY NO CHARGE TO ANY OF THE PARTICIPANTS TO GO IN THERE. NO INSURANCE. JUST YOU GO IN AND GIVE YOU INFORMATION, SIGN UP ONLINE AND BASICALLY YOU GET IN THERE AND THE TEST IS AT NO COST. AND THEY WENT FROM FIVE HUNDRED TO ABOUT 800 TESTS TO A THOUSAND. AND RECENTLY WE'VE ASKED THE TESTING COMPANY AND THEY'VE AGREED TO MOVE UP TO TWELVE HUNDRED AND FIFTY TESTS PER DAY. AND WE'RE SEEING SOME OF THAT ACTIVITY, AS YOU CAN SEE THROUGHOUT THE WEEK, OVER A THOUSAND TESTS ON NOVEMBER 14. SO REALLY HAPPY ABOUT THIS SERVICE IS OFFERED TO OUR CITIZENS HERE AND ANYBODY, DON'T HAVE TO LIVE IN FRISCO, DON 'T HAVE TO LIVE IN TEXAS. ANYONE THAT WANTS TO CAN SIGN UP AT THE WEBSITE AND YOU CAN GET TESTED. AND THAT'S SOMETHING WE'RE PROUD OF THERE. [01:10:02] AND WE HOPE TO CONTINUE. THIS AS A NATIONAL MAGAZINE. THIS IS TRUCK THREE OUT OF FIRE STATION THREE. THIS IS A NATIONAL MAGAZINE, FIRE APPARATUS EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT. IT'S GOT A HUGE DISTRIBUTION LIST, INCLUDING A VERY LARGE ONLINE VIEWERSHIP. THIS ARTICLE FEATURED OUR TRUCK THREE, OUR MID MOUNT [INAUDIBLE] MID MOUNT OUR DALLAS COWBOY LOGOS. AND THE ARTICLE WAS EXTREMELY COMPLIMENTARY ABOUT THE USE OF A MID MOUNT TRUCK IN A GROWING CITY LIKE FRISCO. AND ALSO IT TALKED A LOT ABOUT THE INCLUSIVENESS OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT, BRINGING IN ASPECTS OF THE COMMUNITY AND HERE AND US BEING SPORTS CITY, USA. SO IT'S A REALLY GREAT ARTICLE. I JUST WANT TO HIGHLIGHT THAT AND WE'VE GOT A LOT OF COMMENTS ON THAT. SO STARTING NOW, ACTUALLY, DECEMBER ACTUALLY EXCUSE ME, NOVEMBER THE 9TH, WE'VE BEEN DOING A TOY DRIVE AND ALL THE FIRE STATIONS AND ALSO THE POLICE DEPARTMENT. CAN STOP THERE SAFELY. YOU CAN DROP OFF ANY TOYS THAT YOU WANT TO DONATE. AND OUR BIG EVENT IS FRIDAY, DECEMBER THE 4TH AT FIRE SAFETY TOWN FROM FIVE TO EIGHT P.M. WILL BE A DRIVE BY TOY DRIVE. WE'LL HAVE PETE DELKUS THERE. MR. DELKUS IS HELPING US ONCE AGAIN FROM WFAA AND HE WILL BE THERE LIVE. AND WE'LL BRING THE CARS THROUGH AND YOU CAN DRIVE THROUGH AGAIN, VERY SAFE EVENT. AND YOU CAN DONATE A TOY IF YOU WISH FOR A TOY DRIVE. SO THAT'S SOMETHING WE'RE REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO. I'LL BE THERE. YES. IF PETE DELKUS IS GOING TO BE THERE, I'LL BE THERE. HE WILL BE THERE. [INAUDIBLE] WILL BE THERE. SO AND LASTLY, JUST REAL QUICK, AS WE GO IN THE HOLIDAY SEASON, WE'VE GOT SOME INFORMATION POSTED ON OUR WEBSITE FRISCOTEXAS.GOV/FIRE. IF YOU WANT TO LEARN ABOUT FIRE SAFETY, WE'VE GOT THE HOLIDAYS COMING UP. WE'VE GOT SOME COOKING TIPS IN THERE. MOST FIRES IN THE HOME ARE CAUSED BY UNINTENDED OR I SHOULD SAY UNINTENDED COOKING MATERIALS. YOU LEAVE THE MATERIALS ON THE STOVE, YOU WALK AWAY, CATCHES FIRE VERY QUICKLY. SO WE WANT TO HIGHLIGHT THAT. AND ALSO WE'VE GOT SOME HOLIDAY SAFETY TIPS ABOUT CANDLES. BE VERY CAREFUL WITH CANDLES, OPEN FLAME IN YOUR HOME. ALSO, CHECK THOSE CHRISTMAS LIGHTS. AS YOU'RE PUTTING THEM ON THE TREE THIS YEAR, MAYBE YOUR HOUSE, CHECK THE STRAINS, MAKE SURE THEY'RE NOT FRAYED, MAKE SURE THEY'RE IN GOOD SHAPE. IF THEY AREN'T, REPLACE THEM. YOU WANT TO STAY SAFE. AND WE DO SEE SOME FIRES AT TIMES CAUSED BY SOME ELECTRICAL ISSUES. AND AS I MENTIONED EARLIER, PARTICULARLY, CANDLES CAN BE PROBLEMATIC. THEY'RE NICE TO HAVE OBVIOUSLY, HOWEVER, THEY CAN BE KNOCKED OVER ACCIDENTALLY. PETS WE SEE OFTENTIMES CAN ACCIDENTALLY KNOCK THEM OVER AND SOMETIMES CHILDREN. SO BE CAREFUL WITH THOSE IF YOU CHOOSE TO USE CANDLES IN THIS TIME OF YEAR. AGAIN, YOU CAN READ ALL THE REST OF THE MATERIAL ON OUR WEB SITE. GIVES YOU A LOT MORE TIPS ABOUT HOLIDAY SAFETY AND COOKING SAFETY. SO WE WANT EVERYBODY TO HAVE A REALLY HAPPY AND SAFE HOLIDAY SEASON. SO BE GLAD TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. COUNCIL MEMBERS, QUESTIONS DO YOU HAVE? ON THE TOY DRIVE, IS THERE A TARGET AGE AND I ASSUME THEY'RE UNWRAPPED? THEY ARE. IT'S AN UNWRAPPED GIFT FOR CHILDREN AND ANYTHING THAT FOLKS WOULD LIKE TO DONATE. AND IT'S SAFE. YOU CAN COME IN OUR FOYERS AND DROP THEM OFF. IT'S A NO CONTACT EVENT. AND THE SAME WITH THE TOY DRIVE, YOU CAN DRIVE THROUGH AND WE'LL TAKE THE ITEM. SO IT'S A REALLY SAFE EVENT IF PEOPLE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THAT. OK, CHIEF. YES, SIR. OK, THAT'LL MOVE US TO ITEM 10, WHICH IS THE POLICE DEPARTMENT'S CRIME STATISTICS AND [10. Police Department's crime statistics and response times for the month of October 2020.] RESPONSE TIMES FOR OCTOBER. GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. YOU HAVE BEFORE YOU THE OCTOBER MONTHLY REPORT ON CRIME STATS. ONE THING THAT'S NOT INCLUDED ON THERE THAT I DID WANT TO TALK BRIEFLY ABOUT WAS LATE LAST WEEK WE DID A QUARTERLY INSPECTION OF PETLAND. WE DETERMINED TWO VIOLATIONS, WHICH PETLAND RECEIVED CITATIONS FOR TODAY. SO THAT'S A NOVEMBER ITEM. BUT JUST WANTED TO MAKE YOU AWARE OF THAT. BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE MONTHLY REPORT. WHAT QUESTIONS DO YOU HAVE? CHIEF, DID YOU INCLUDE IN THAT THE NUMBER TOTAL SO FAR FOR PETLAND SINCE WE STARTED? A CITATION SINCE THE NEW ORDINANCE, WE'D BE UP TO FIVE NOW. ARE THEY FOR THE SAME THINGS? NO, SO THE CITATIONS THAT THESE RECENT CITATIONS WERE MADE BECAUSE THE PEOPLE THAT PURCHASED ANIMALS, THEY DETERMINED THAT THERE WERE EIGHT ANIMALS THAT WERE GETTING MEDICAL TREATMENT. AND IN TWO OF THOSE EIGHT INSTANCES, THE PURCHASER OF THE ANIMALS WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THAT TREATMENT, WHICH WAS A VIOLATION OF THE ORDINANCE. [01:15:03] THE OTHER THINGS THAT I WANTED TO MENTION REAL QUICK, YOU MENTIONED, MAYOR, THE SWEARING IN CEREMONY WE HAD YESTERDAY, REALLY EXCITED TO GET THOSE NINE OFFICERS ON BOARD. AND LIKE YOU SAID, WE ARE BECOMING A DESTINATION DEPARTMENT. WE HAD FOUR OFFICERS FROM OTHER LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES THAT CHOSE TO SWITCH DEPARTMENTS AND COME HERE TO FRISCO, WHICH IS DEFINITELY ENCOURAGING FOR US. I ALSO WANTED TO TALK ABOUT OUR BEARDED UP CAMPAIGN. WE HAVEN'T CHANGED OUR POLICY ON FACIAL HAIR, BUT IN NOVEMBER, WE ALWAYS HAVE A LOT OF FUN WITH THIS. AND WE WERE RAISING MONEY FOR PEDIATRIC CANCER RESEARCH WITH THE CURE STARTS NOW. SO SO FAR WE'RE UP TO OVER FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS THAT'S BEEN DONATED BY OUR EMPLOYEES. THEY DONATE MONEY SO THAT THEY CAN GROW A BEARD AND OUR FEMALE EMPLOYEES DONATE MONEY SO THEY CAN WEAR DIFFERENT COLORED NAIL POLISH AND VERY THANKFUL FOR THE DONATIONS AND THE PARTICIPATION FROM OUR EMPLOYEES. AND OUR POLICE ASSOCIATION HAS AGREED TO MATCH ANY DONATION FROM OUR EMPLOYEES. SO WE'RE HOPING TO GET TO THE TOP OF THE LEADERBOARD WHERE WE'RE ALREADY CLOSE BEFORE THAT MATCH. LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE HAVING A TOUGH TIME GETTING YOURS TO FILL IN. YEAH, YOU DON'T WANT TO SEE ME TRY AND GROW A BEARD, AND NEITHER DOES MY WIFE.

MAYOR AND COUNCIL. TONIGHT, I HAVE A SHORT PRESENTATION FOR THE CREATION OF TAX INCREMENT REINVESTMENT ZONE NUMBER SIX. PROPOSED PROPERTY BOUNDARY INCLUDES ABOUT 151 ACRES. THE CURRENT ASSESSED VALUE IS A LITTLE OVER SIX HUNDRED AND THIRTY TWO MILLION DOLLARS, WITH ABOUT TWENTY EIGHT PARCELS. CURRENTLY, TWO BUILDINGS HAVE BEEN DEMOLISHED TO ALLOW FOR REDEVELOPMENT OF A MORE URBAN WALKABLE DESIGN AND LAYOUT. THE PROPOSED PROJECTS TODAY INCLUDE A PARKING STRUCTURE FOR ABOUT TWENTY MILLION DOLLARS, WITH A THOUSAND PLUS OR MINUS SPACES. IT'S PROPOSED TO BE LOCATED NEXT TO A POTENTIAL PERFORMING ARTS FACILITY. PARKING STRUCTURE WILL SUPPORT THE OFFICE BUILDINGS DURING THE DAY MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY, EIGHT TO FIVE, AND WE'LL BE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC FOR THE REST OF THE TIME. [INAUDIBLE] OTHER PROJECTS WOULD INCLUDE THE PLAZA OPEN SPACE PARK IMPROVEMENTS FOR ABOUT FIFTEEN MILLION AND EIGHTY PERCENT OF ONGOING MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS OF THE PARKING GARAGE AND OPEN SPACE. THE PROPOSED FINANCING WOULD INCLUDE PROPOSED DEBT TO BE ISSUED FOR PHASE ONE CONTRIBUTION FROM THE CITY TIRZ REVENUE WOULD SUPPORT THIS DEBT OF TWENTY MILLION DOLLARS FOR THE PARKING STRUCTURE. FIFTEEN MILLION FUNDING FROM OTHER REVENUE SOURCES OR DEBT ISSUANCE FOR THE PLAZA OPEN SPACE PARK IMPROVEMENT ANTICIPATES THE TOTAL COST OF THE OPEN SPACE WOULD BE THIRTY MILLION DOLLARS, WITH THE DEVELOPER SUPPORTING THE ADDITIONAL COST. REVENUE SOURCES. THE TIRZ IS STRUCTURED SO THAT FIFTY PERCENT OF THE AD VALOREM TAX ON THE CAPTURED VALUE OF THE PROPERTY WILL GO INTO THE TIRZ AND FIFTY PERCENT OF SALES TAX GENERATED WITHIN THOSE PROPERTIES WOULD GO INTO TIRZ SIX POTENTIAL USE OF PARK DEDICATION FEES FOR OPEN SPACE IMPROVEMENTS, PROJECTED VALUE, THE REDEVELOPMENT EXPECTED TO OCCUR OVER THE NEXT 20 TO 30 YEARS. THE BASE CAPTURED VALUE, AS I SAID BEFORE, IS CURRENTLY A LITTLE OVER SIX HUNDRED AND THIRTY TWO MILLION DOLLARS. CURRENTLY, THE ESTIMATED BUILD OUT WOULD APPROACH TWO POINT TWO BILLION ONCE EVERYTHING IS CONSTRUCTED. THE SUGGESTED BOUNDARIES OF TIRZ SIX. THIS IS THE HALL OFFICE PARK PD, SO THE NORTHERN BORDER IS THE WARREN PARKWAY, THE EASTERN BORDER IS THE TOLL ROAD. AND THEN IT'S SURROUNDED BY RESIDENTIAL ON BOTH THE WEST SIDE AND THE SOUTH SIDE. [01:35:02] AS YOU CAN SEE RIGHT NOW, THE AREA OF REDEVELOPMENT IS CALLED LOT D, AND IT IS JUST SOUTH OF THE STAR. IT'S IN RED THERE AND YOU CAN SEE IT'S BETWEEN GAYLARD AND [INAUDIBLE]. THIS IS A POTENTIAL DRAWING OF WHERE THEY'RE GOING TO BE CONSTRUCTING, THEY TORE DOWN AND DEMOLISHED TWO BUILDINGS IN D1 THAT TOP BUILDING ON THE RIGHT IS THE ONE THAT THEY'RE GOING TO GO UP WITH. FIRST, AS YOU CAN SEE, THERE IS A LARGE OPEN SPACE IN THE MIDDLE OF ALL THOSE BUILDINGS. IT'S ANYWHERE FROM FIVE TO EIGHT ACRES OF OPEN SPACE. SO IT'S QUITE A BIG GREEN AREA THAT WILL BE ACTIVATED. AND SO THAT'S ONE OF THE THINGS THAT THEY ARE LOOKING AT, TRYING TO MAKE THIS A MORE WALKABLE AND FRIENDLY AREA. JUST TO GIVE PEOPLE SOME SENSE OF SCALE. THE LAST PRESENTATION I HEARD ON AT THAT PARK IS SLIGHTLY LARGER THAN CLYBOURNE PARK. SO THE TIRZ WOULD BE 25 TIRZ FROM CREATING AND NOW WOULD GO THROUGH 2045. AND I'D BE GLAD TO ANSWER ANY OTHER QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE. COUNCIL ANY QUESTIONS DO YOU HAVE? JUST WANT TO THANK [INAUDIBLE] FOR ANSWERING ALL MY QUESTIONS THROUGHOUT THE DAY. AND FOR YOUR PATIENCE. WELL, THIS IS AN EXCITING STEP TOWARDS, YOU KNOW, FUTURE REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT AT HALL PARK THAT WE THINK CAN CREATE SOMETHING, YOU KNOW, REALLY SPECIAL THERE. AND YOUR FIRST RENDERING WITH THE OVERVIEW, YOU CAN SEE THAT IT'S CURRENTLY ESSENTIALLY A PARKING LOT TODAY. TODAY. AND MR. HALL, PART OF THE HALO EFFECT OF THE STAR, WHEN WE DO INVESTMENTS AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS LIKE THIS, YOU KNOW, WHEN WE ANNOUNCED A PROJECT LIKE THAT, WE DON'T KNOW NECESSARILY WHAT IT'S GOING TO BRING. OF COURSE, IT HELPED REDEVELOP FRISCO'S STATION TO TOTALLY DIFFERENT TYPE OF SCOPE OF PROJECT. BUT EVEN HERE IN HALL PARK, HE MADE THE DECISION THAT NOW, BECAUSE OF THAT ASSET, 12 YEAR OLD BUILDINGS THAT WERE FOUR OR FIVE STOREY BUILDINGS WERE NO LONGER WORTHY OF THE SITE AND HE TORE THEM DOWN SO HE CAN REDEVELOPMENT AND CREATE A BIGGER PRESENCE BUILDING THERE. AND SO THAT JUST SPEAKS TO WHEN WE DO THESE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS AND WE WHEN WE ANNOUNCE THEM, YOU KNOW, WE DON'T EVEN SPECULATE ON THESE TYPES OF THINGS AS FAR AS THE OTHER BENEFITS THAT IT RECEIVES. YOU KNOW, THE COUNCIL AND THE CITY HAS LONG HAD A DREAM OF HAVING A PERFORMING ARTS CENTER AND HOW FRISCO DOES THINGS AS WE DO THINGS WITH PARTNERS. AND SO I KNOW WE CONTINUE TO WORK WITH MR. HALL AND THE SCHOOL DISTRICT TO MAKE IT A REALITY. BUT, YOU KNOW, FROM THE CITY'S PERSPECTIVE, THIS WAS DEFINITELY OUR FIRST STEP FOR US TO BE ABLE TO MOVE THE BALL FORWARD WITH THAT. SO THANK YOU FOR YOUR. THESE ARE VERY COMPLEX DEALS THAT REQUIRE A LOT OF QUESTIONS. YOU KNOW, I KNOW THAT A LOT OF QUESTIONS TODAY. SO WE APPRECIATE YOUR YOUR TEAM'S HARD WORK ON IT. YES, SIR. ANY OTHER COMMENTS? OK, [INAUDIBLE] THANK YOU. MOTION BY SHONA, SECOND BY JOHN. ALL IN FAVOR. AYE. OPPOSED. THAT MOTION PASSES SIX ZERO. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. HOW ARE YOU GOING TO GRADE US TONIGHT?

THOSE RESULTS WERE ALSO PLACED OUT ON OUR WEBSITE, ALONG WITH THE CUMULATIVE TOTALS FOR EASY SPREADSHEET THAT WAS ALSO PLACED ON OUR WEBSITE AND EMAILED TO YOU GUYS AS WELL. [01:40:05] THIS WOULD CALL THE RUNOFF ELECTION FOR DECEMBER THE 8TH WITH EARLY VOTING STARTING ON NOVEMBER THE 23RD. AND WITH THAT, I'LL BE LOOKING FOR MOTION. ASK A QUESTION FIRST, AND I APOLOGIZE FOR NOT SENDING THIS OVER. YOU'RE FIND, GO AHEAD. I THINK THE LAST TIME WE HAD A RUN OFF ELECTION, WE ONLY HAD FOUR VOTING LOCATIONS, BUT WE'RE RECOMMENDING SIX NOW. IS THERE REASON FOR THAT THIS TIME AROUND? YES. COST SO THAT THE COSTS WERE QUITE HIGH TO DO THAT. AND THEN THE COUNTY ELECTIONS ADMINISTRATORS ALSO RECOMMENDED A REDUCTION IN THE LOCATIONS BECAUSE OF THE PERCEIVED AMOUNT OF PEOPLE THAT ARE GOING TO TURN OUT. WE DIDN'T NEED EIGHT LOCATIONS FOR. RIGHT. MAYBE I DIDN'T ASK THAT QUITE THE RIGHT WAY. THE LAST TIME WE DID A RUNOFF, WE ONLY HAD FOUR TOTAL VOTING LOCATIONS. THERE ARE SIX RECOMMENDED IN THIS. SO WE'RE ACTUALLY MORE LOCATIONS NOW THAN THE LAST TIME WE HAD A RUNOFF. AND WE ALSO HAVE MORE PEOPLE TO SO. AND THIS WITH THE COVID SITUATION, IT DOES SPREAD PEOPLE OUT JUST A LITTLE BIT MORE.
