Recognition for Emma Ko, American Legion Oratorical Winner.] EMMA AND ANYONE THAT WOULD LIKE TO JOIN. HOW ARE YOU? GOOD. IT READS, [00:10:01] "THE CITY OF FRISCO IS SENDING MOST SINCERE CONGRATULATIONS IN BEING NAMED WINNER OF THE AMERICAN LEGIONS ORATORICAL CONTEST. I JEFF CHENEY, MAYOR OF THE CITY OF FRISCO, ON BEHALF OF FRISCO CITY COUNCIL PROUDLY PRESENT THE CERTIFICATE OF RECOGNITION TO EMMA KO. EMMA IS THE WINNER OF THE LOCAL ORATORICAL CONTEST HELD BY FRISCO'S AMERICAN LEGION POST 178 IN DECEMBER OF 2021. SHE ADVANCED TO THE NEXT LEVELS OF COMPETITION AND WON FIRST PLACE IN THE FOURTH DISTRICT CONTESTS IN JANUARY 2022, FIRST PLACE IN THE DIVISION CONTEST, AND FINISHED STRONG AS A FIRST RUNNER UP IN THE AMERICAN LEGION STATE COMPETITION. THE AMERICAN LEGION ORATORICAL CONTEST EXISTS TO DEVELOP DEEPER KNOWLEDGE AND APPRECIATION FOR THE US CONSTITUTION AMONG HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS. SINCE 1938, THE PROGRAM HAS CHALLENGED STUDENTS TO STRENGTHEN THEIR LEADERSHIP AND COMMUNICATION SKILLS AND LEARN MORE ABOUT THE HISTORY OF OUR NATION'S LAWS AND THE DUTIES, RESPONSIBILITIES, RIGHTS, AND PRIVILEGES OF AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP. IN ATTAINMENT OF THIS AWARD, EMMA HAS DISTINGUISHED HERSELF AT EACH LEVEL OF THE COMPETITION AND DEMONSTRATED OUTSTANDING ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT AND CIVIC ENGAGEMENT, AND WE WISH HER CONTINUED SUCCESS IN THE FUTURE." CONGRATULATIONS. [APPLAUSE] IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE NO ISSUE WITH PUBLIC SPEAKING. MAYBE TELL US ABOUT THE JOURNEY AND WHAT IT MEANS TO COMPETE AT THIS LEVEL. >> HI, MY NAME IS EMMA COE. I DID COMPETE THE AMERICAN LEGION ORATORICAL COMPETITION. THIS WAS MY SECOND YEAR DOING IT AND IT WAS AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE. I GOT TO TRAVEL TO SOME PRETTY HISTORIC PLACES AROUND THE TEXAS AREA FOR THE COMPETITIONS. I GOT TO SPEND A LOT OF TIME WORKING ON MY SPEECH ON THE FIFTH ARTICLE AND ALL AROUND HAD A GREAT EXPERIENCE WHERE I LEARNED A LOT AND WAS ABLE TO MEET A LOT OF AMAZING PEOPLE. >> WHAT WAS YOUR [INAUDIBLE] SPEECH? >> MY SPEECH WAS ON THE AMENDMENT PROCESS AND HOW IT'S BENEFICIAL TO PRESERVING OUR CONSTITUTION. [APPLAUSE] >> SOMEONE TAKE A PICTURE OF OUR AMERICAN LEGION IF YOU-ALL WANT TO JOIN US. LET'S GET ONE MORE ON THIS SIDE HERE. >> ONE, TWO, THREE. >> CONGRATULATIONS. [APPLAUSE] NOW [4. Recognition of Service for Council Member Shona Huffman.] WE'LL ASK SHONA AND FAMILY WHO WANTS TO JOIN AND COUNCIL TO COME JOIN US FOR RECOGNITION OF HER SERVICE. I THINK WE'RE GOING TO START WITH A TRIBUTE VIDEO. I KNOW COUNCIL AND CITY STAFF WENT THROUGH AND LOOKED THROUGH ALL OF OUR PHOTOS OVER THE LAST SIX YEARS. WE TRIED OUR BEST TO EMBARRASS SHONA WITH SOME OF THE PICTURES THAT WE'VE TAKEN. [LAUGHTER] I THINK WE'RE GOING TO START WITH THAT. [MUSIC] >> I WILL FAITHFULLY EXECUTE THE DUTIES OF THE OFFICE OF COUNCIL MEMBER PLACE 2. [APPLAUSE] FRISCO HAS BEEN VERY GOOD AT PLANNING WHERE THEY WANT TO GO AND WHAT THEY WANT TO BE. [MUSIC] I ACTUALLY HOLD A MASTER'S DEGREE FROM UNC, SO I AM PROUD OF THAT DEGREE. [APPLAUSE] I AM THRILLED TO HAVE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO PARTNER ONCE AGAIN IN OUR COMMUNITY. I THINK THIS IS THE WAY PARTNERSHIPS SHOULD BE DONE. THE PUBLIC, PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS AND FRISCO HAS DONE THAT SO WELL FOR SO LONG. AS WE'RE DEVELOPING THE NORTHERN QUADRANT, WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S A HIGH-QUALITY, IT'S SUSTAINABLE. IT'S THINGS THAT NOT ONLY ARE PEOPLE WHO COME AND VISIT HERE ARE GOING TO WANT, BUT IT'S ALSO THINGS THAT OUR RESIDENTS ARE GOING TO WANT. [MUSIC] PERFECT. I LIKE THIS ONE. IT'S MAKING IT REALLY HARD TO CHOOSE TODAY. THE FOOD IS INCREDIBLE. I LOVE THAT WE'VE GOT A GREAT PARTNERSHIP WITH THE BUSINESSES, AND I LOVED THAT THE BUSINESSES CAN THRIVE HERE. [00:15:01] THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT MAKES FRISCO A GREAT COMMUNITY TO LIVE IN. IT'S JUST A GREAT PLACE TO BE. [MUSIC] [APPLAUSE] >> WELL, THE PICTURES DIDN'T MAKE THE VIDEO, BUT WE HAVE LOTS IN THIS BOOK TO COMMEMORATE YOUR SIX YEARS OF SERVICES. I WAS GOING THROUGH THEM TODAY AND JUST REALIZING ALL THAT HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED OVER THE LAST SIX YEARS OBVIOUSLY WITH YOU IN THIS LEADERSHIP ROLE. I WILL SAY THAT IN THIS BOOK THAT IN MY OPINION, THE [INAUDIBLE] PICTURES THAT WE TOOK ARE STILL THE BEST PICTURES IN HERE. THOSE WHEN YOU GO THROUGH HERE AND LOOK AT THIS AND SHARE THESE MEMORIES, PAY SPECIAL ATTENTION TO THOSE. WE HAD A FUN DAY THAT DAY. BUT I DO JUST WANT TO SAY, ON BEHALF OF THE CITIZENS OF FRISCO AND CITY COUNCIL, THAT YOUR LEADERSHIP WAS A BIG PART OF WHY WE ACCOMPLISH ALL THE THINGS THAT WE'VE ACCOMPLISHED HERE OVER THE LAST SIX YEARS. WHEN WE START RATTLING OFF THE WINDS AND SUCCESSES, WE DO IT COLLECTIVELY AS A TEAM. SPECIFICALLY SPEAKING, OBVIOUSLY, WE SAW THE VIDEO OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS. I THINK YOU PLAYED A VERY RIDAL ROLE. GETTING A UNIVERSITY IN YOUR COMMUNITY IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE. EVERY COMMUNITY WANTS IT. BUT IT'S VERY DIFFICULT TO EXECUTE IT WITH ALL THE THINGS THAT HAVE TO HAPPEN WHEN YOU'RE A BIG PART OF BRINGING THEM HERE. OF COURSE, THE PGA, EVERYONE KNOWS THAT WE ALL HAD A GREAT TIME BRINGING THE PGA FRISCO HERE AND EVERY COUNCIL MEMBER PLAYED A VITAL ROLE OR WOULDN'T HAPPEN WITHOUT EVERYONE AND YOU WERE A BIG LEADER IN THAT AS FAR AS PUSHING DIFFERENT THINGS. BUT THOSE ARE THE BIG PROJECTS. I'VE MENTIONED THAT A LOT OF TIMES, IT'S THE SMALLER THINGS THAT GIVE YOU THE BEST GRATITUDE. AS FAR AS THINGS THAT YOU DON'T SEE NECESSARILY IN A NEWSPAPER HEADLINES, THINGS THAT MAY BE PEOPLE IN THE AUDIENCE HAVE NEVER EVEN HEARD OF. BUT THAT TIME YOU'RE ABLE TO ACTUALLY HELP A CITIZEN WITH A VERY SPECIFIC ISSUE. TIMES WHEN YOU ARE ABLE TO ENGAGE WITH VERY SPECIFIC GROUPS. OF COURSE, I GOT TO SEE THAT FIRSTHAND MANY TIMES. I HAD A FRONT ROW SEAT TO THAT AND SEEING SHONA DO THAT IN THAT ROLE. ONE OF WHICH BEING I SEE ALISON MILLER HERE BEING A LEAD WITH THE MARRIAGE YOUTH COUNCIL, WHICH IS A PROGRAM THAT'S DEAR TO MY HEART AND WAS DEAR TO YOUR HEART AS FAR AS DEVELOPING THAT. OF COURSE, YOUR DAUGHTER WAS ABLE TO GO THROUGH IT AND MY SON WAS ABLE TO GO THROUGH IT. BUT JUST ALL THE CHILDREN THAT GOT TO LEARN FROM YOU. IT'S NOT SURPRISING THAT ALL OF YOU THAT ARE HERE THAT KNOW SHONA AND LOVE SHONA, THAT DEBATE NIGHT WAS HER FAVORITE NIGHTS OF MARRIAGE YOUTH COUNCIL. BUT THERE'S JUST SO MANY OTHER DIFFERENT THINGS THAT YOU'VE BEEN A BIG PART OF. I KNOW I CAN SPEAK FOR ALL OF US THAT WHEN OUR TIME SERVING THE COMMUNITY IS DONE, WE JUST HOPE THAT WE HAVE LEFT IT IN A BETTER PLACE THAN WE RECEIVED IT. I THINK YOU CAN PROBABLY SAY THAT YOU HAVE LEFT FOR FRISCO IN A BETTER PLACE THAN YOU RECEIVED IT AND YOUR LEADERSHIP AND DEDICATION WAS PARAMOUNT TO OUR SUCCESS. AS SOMEONE WHO'S SERVED ALONGSIDE YOU, I ALWAYS JOKE THAT COUNCIL WAS LIKE BROTHERS AND SISTERS. SOME DAYS WE'RE BICKERING IN THE BACK SEAT AND OTHER DAYS WE'RE HUGGING EACH OTHER. BUT AT THE SAME TIME, WE ALWAYS HAD THE MISSION THAT FRISCO WAS THE MOST IMPORTANT AND WE WERE WORKING COLLECTIVELY TO THAT, WE CAN DO AMAZING THINGS. OVER THE SIX YEARS, YOUR SERVICE AS A COUNCIL MEMBER, YOU DID AMAZING THINGS THAT YOU SHOULD BE PROUD OF. THANK YOU AND I APPRECIATE YOU. [APPLAUSE] >> I REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME THAT I THINK WE OFFICIALLY MET WAS IN A COFFEE SHOP ALMOST SEVEN YEARS AGO WHEN BOTH OF US WERE CONSIDERING RUNNING FOR COUNCIL. I KNEW THEN THAT WE HAD VERY SIMILAR VISIONS FOR THE CITY AND YOU'VE HELD TRUE TO THAT VISION FOR THESE LAST SIX YEARS. YOUR DEDICATION TO THE CITY HAS BEEN JUST PHENOMENAL. I'M NOT THE ONE TO SPEAK A LOT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR DEDICATION. THANK YOU FOR ALL THE WORK THAT YOU'VE DONE FOR US. [APPLAUSE] >> SHONA, I HAVE NOT HAD THE OPPORTUNITY, MUCH LIKE MY COLLEAGUES TO SPEND A LOT OF TIME WITH YOU ON COUNCIL IN THAT I WAS JUST NEWLY ELECTED BACK IN JUNE. BUT I WILL SAY AS A WOMAN ON COUNCIL, I WAS ALWAYS ENCOURAGED TO SEE YOUR STRENGTH AS A WOMAN SITTING HERE EVERY TUESDAY AND THEN YOUR LEADERSHIP OUT IN THE COMMUNITY AND YOU WILL BE CERTAINLY MISSED. I LOVED THE FACT THAT YOU HAVE YOUR GIRLS UP THERE TO SHOW THEM WHAT IT'S LIKE TO BE A STRONG WOMAN IN EVERY AREA OF YOUR LIFE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE. [00:20:07] >> ONE OF THE THINGS THAT COMES TO MY MIND, SHONA, IS STRENGTH. YOU REPRESENT STRENGTH. WE'RE LIKE BROTHERS AND SISTERS AND WE'RE DISCUSSING THINGS, YOU ALWAYS STOOD FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVED IS RIGHT. YOU STOOD YOUR GROUND. MORE IMPORTANTLY, YOU DID WHAT YOU THOUGHT WAS BEST FOR THE CITIZENS OF FRISCO. I KNOW EVERYBODY IN THIS ROOM WILL AGREE WITH THAT. [APPLAUSE] THANK YOU FOR YOUR TENACITY, YOUR PROFESSIONALISM, AND I WISH YOU THE VERY BEST. [APPLAUSE] >> I WAS TALKING TO SHONA BRIEFLY UP HERE BEFORE WE CAME OUT HERE. I WAS JUST GOING TO SAY FOR FIVE YEARS FROM WHERE OUR RELATIONSHIP STARTED TO TODAY, I THINK WE'VE COME A LONG WAY AND I CONSIDER YOU NOT ONLY A COUNCIL COLLEAGUE, BUT A FRIEND. I WISH YOU THE BEST. I ALSO WANT TO POINT OUT ONE OF THE THINGS I'VE ALWAYS WAS MOST IMPRESSED WITH BY SHONA WAS HER KNOWLEDGE AND COMMUNICATION OF LEGISLATIVE AFFAIRS AT THE STATE LEVEL, AND I WAS ALWAYS IMPRESSED BY IT. I THINK TONIGHT, [NOISE] THE FACT THAT OUR STATE REPRESENTATIVE PATTERSON CAME TO WISH YOU GOODBYE IS A TESTAMENT TO YOUR INFLUENCE. I'M SORRY, MR. PATTERSON, YOU'RE NOT GOING TO GET ANY MORE PHONE CALLS FROM HER ABOUT BILLS. [LAUGHTER] I'M SURE YOU JUST CAME HERE TO MAKE SURE THAT SHE WAS IN FACT LEAVING. [LAUGHTER] ONE THING I WANT TO PROMISE YOU IS THAT, I WILL CALL YOU THE DAY THAT I GET ACCEPTED INTO LEADERSHIP FRISCO. [LAUGHTER] THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING, AND I WISH YOU THE BEST. [APPLAUSE] >> [INAUDIBLE] LET ME GET MY GLASSES OUT FOR A SECOND. [NOISE] I JUST HAD MY SURGERY ON WEDNESDAY OF LAST WEEK, SO MY MIND IS NOT FULLY ENGAGED IN EVERY PART OF IT THAT I WOULD LOVE FOR IT TO BE WHERE I COULD HAVE THIS MEMORIZED. BUT TO SAY THAT IT HAS BEEN AN HONOR TO SERVE THE CITY OF FRISCO. IT JUST REALLY SEEMS LACKING. LIKE THERE'S JUST NO WORDS TO SAY WHAT THAT HONOR REALLY IS AND HOW I FEEL ABOUT THIS COMMUNITY AND HOW I FEEL ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY THAT I WAS GIVEN. WELL, I TRULY HATED AND DISLIKED THE CAMPAIGNING PART. I REALLY LOVED GETTING TO KNOW SO MANY OF YOU PERSONALLY ON YOUR DOORSTEPS AND I DON'T THINK THOSE OF US WHO STOOD UP HERE AND HAVE GONE THROUGH THIS PROCESS. IT WAS NEVER LOST ON ME ANYTIME SOMEBODY SAID, YES, I'LL PUT YOUR SIGN IN MY YARD. I MEAN, I DID A DANCE ALL THE WAY BACK TO THE CAR BECAUSE THAT JUST MEANT THAT YOU TRUSTED ME AND THAT MEANT SO MUCH. MANY OF YOU I MET THROUGH KIDS ACTIVITIES ARE KNOCKING ON YOUR DOOR OR THROUGH BUSINESS EVENTS AND I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT IT WAS JUST NEVER WASTED ON ME, THE TRUST THAT YOU PUT IN ME. A LOT OF YOU TOOK THE TIME TO GET TO KNOW ME THROUGH OUR SWEET TEA CONVERSATIONS. EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE I'D SAY JOIN ME OVER SWEET TEA, LET'S TALK IT OUT AND I WAS NEVER SURPRISED THAT PEOPLE WOULD JUST SAY I'LL TAKE YOU UP ON THAT OFFER AND IT WOULD BE SOMEBODY THAT PROBABLY WE HADN'T AGREED ON MUCH. BUT BY THE END OF THAT CONVERSATION, WE HAD A FRIENDSHIP THAT WAS ABOUT THE CITY OF FRISCO. SOME OF YOU ASKED ME REALLY HARD QUESTIONS AND SOME THAT I KNEW THAT I WOULDN'T FULLY BE ABLE TO DO. BUT FOR ME IT WAS MORE ABOUT FINDING WAYS TO WORK TOGETHER. THE ONE THING I PRAYED FROM DAY 1 WHEN I DECIDED TO RUN THE VERY FIRST TIME WAS THAT GOD WOULD GRANT ME GRACE AND WISDOM. WISDOM FOR THE DECISIONS THAT I WOULD NEED TO MAKE AND GRACE TO CARRY IT OUT AS I INTERACTED WITH PEOPLE. I BELIEVE THAT IS WHY I REALLY DIDN'T HAVE ISSUES AND DISAGREEING WITH PEOPLE AND THEN TURNING AROUND AND FINDING A WAY TO WORK WITH THEM. CASE IN POINT. THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT SAY THAT POLITICS IS PERSONAL, BUT IT'S REALLY NOT. REGARDLESS OF WHERE YOU STAND ON AN ISSUE, WE OUGHT TO BE ABLE TO FIND A WAY TO BE NEIGHBORS FIRST. IF WE MAKE POLITICS PERSONAL THEN WE AREN'T WORKING FOR THE BEST POLICY FOR ALL. WE'RE JUST WORKING FOR THE WIN AND IN THAT CASE, NO ONE WINS. [00:25:01] IN FACT, THE RESIDENTS LOSE. I'VE HAD THE PRIVILEGE OF STANDING UP FOR DEVELOPERS THAT I BELIEVED REALLY WANTED TO INVEST IN FRISCO THE RIGHT WAY. I'VE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO STAND AGAINST DEVELOPERS WHO I BELIEVED IT DIDN'T, EVEN WHEN THAT SEEMED AN UNPOPULAR THING TO DO. I'VE SUPPORTED NEW BUSINESSES, I'VE SUPPORTED OLD BUSINESSES, AND I'VE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO ASK US ALL TO DO BETTER. I'VE HAD THE PRIVILEGE OF USING MY OWN PERSONAL POLITICAL CAPITAL TO SUPPORT FRISCO ISD WHEN OTHERS WOULD NOT. BECAUSE AS A FORMER PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHER I KNOW THE VALUE OF THIS SCHOOL DISTRICT. I'VE STOOD TOE TO TOE WITH STATE SENATORS AND REPRESENTATIVES [LAUGHTER] ON ALL SIDES OF THE AISLE TO DEFEND FIRST GOES ABILITY TO MAKE CHOICES FOR OURSELVES. I BELIEVE THAT IF YOU ASKED EACH ONE OF THEM, THEY WOULD SAY THAT I CAME PREPARED, THAT I ACTUALLY READ THE BILLS, THAT I KNEW MY STUFF, AND THEN I WORKED HARD TO REPRESENT WHAT WAS BEST FOR FRISCO AND NOT FOR PERSONAL GAIN. I THINK THEY WOULD SAY THAT WHEN THEY NEEDED ME TO COME HELP THEM WITH AN ISSUE THAT I JUMPED IN IMMEDIATELY. BECAUSE AGAIN, IT'S NOT ABOUT THE PERSON, IT'S ABOUT GOOD POLICY. I TESTIFIED IN HEARING AFTER HEARING TO PROTECT FOR FRISCO AND OFTEN AS THE ONLY COUNCIL MEMBER WHO WAS WILLING TO DO SO TO THE POINT THAT IT ANGERED SOME PEOPLE. BUT MY RESPONSIBILITY WAS TO THE RESIDENTS I SERVED AND NOT TO ANY OTHER GROUP. I WOULD DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN. BECAUSE WHEN FRISCO BECOMES MORE ABOUT ANY ONE PERSON OR ANY ONE GROUP, WHERE ANY ONE AGENDA ITEM, WE HAVE LOST OUR WAY. TO TRY AND THANK EVERYONE WHO HAS SUPPORTED ME ALONG THE WAY, I KNOW I WOULD MISS SOMEONE. BUT FIRST TO THE RESIDENTS WHO PLACED THEIR TRUST IN ME SIX YEARS AGO, THANK YOU. I HOPE THAT I SERVED YOU WELL. THANK YOU FOR CONTINUING TO SUPPORT ME EACH TIME. YOU ARE WHAT MAKES THIS COMMUNITY GREAT. NOT ANY OF US. TO MY CAMPAIGN TEAM, YOU JUMPED IN ON DAY 1 AND HAVE BEEN READY TO RUN THROUGH WALLS EVER SINCE. THANK YOU FOR BELIEVING IN ME THAT MUCH. TO OUR CITY STAFF, WHAT A PLEASURE IT HAS BEEN TO KNOW US PROFESSIONALS AND NOW AS FRIENDS. PEOPLE WHO WORK HARD TO SERVE THIS CITY AND GET VERY LITTLE CREDIT. YOUR PATIENT WITH ME IN EXPLAINING PUBLIC FINANCE, NO [INAUDIBLE] [LAUGHTER] AND CEOS, NGOS AND UNDERSTANDING THE DIFFERENCE [INAUDIBLE] JOHN, THANK YOU. THE BEST WAYS TO SUPPORT ALL OF OUR STAFF, YOU ARE THE BEST OF THE BEST. GEORGE, HENRY, RON, JASON, BEN, CHRISTY, DANA, RICHARD, AND RYAN FOR ALL TRYING TO KEEP US FROM GOING OFF CLIFFS. YOU SET A STANDARD THAT WE SHOULD ALL STRIVE TO MEET IN OUR DAILY WALKS. TO MY FAMILY, [NOISE] MANY OF YOU KNOW THAT I SERVED HALF OF MY TIME AS A SINGLE MOM, WHICH MEANT THAT THESE TWO LADIES GAVE UP MORE THAN ANYONE AND I LOVE YOU BOTH SO VERY MUCH. I ALWAYS WANTED YOU TO SEE THAT YOU CAN FALL DOWN, YOU CAN PICK YOURSELF UP AGAIN AND YOU CAN LIVE TO FIGHT ANOTHER DAY FOR ANOTHER DREAM. BUT NOW WHAT I WANT YOU TO SEE IS THAT GOD CAN ALSO REDIRECT YOU TO CHOOSE TO FIGHT FOR OTHER THINGS THAT MATTER SO MUCH MORE. FOLLOWING HIM WILL ALWAYS BE THE RIGHT CHOICE. I KNOW WHO HOLDS MY DESTINY. TO MY HUSBAND AND MY BEST FRIEND WILL, IT WAS YOU WHO ENCOURAGED ME TO TAKE THIS PATH YEARS AGO AS MY FRIEND. IT IS YOU WHO HOLD MY HAND, THE TITUS NOW AS I WALK AWAY AND FIGHT THIS OTHER FIGHT. WE DON'T CHOOSE CANCER BUT WE DO CHOOSE HOW WE PRIORITIZE OUR LIVES WITH IT. NOW IT'S TIME FOR ME TO CHOOSE MY HUSBAND, OUR PRECIOUS BLENDED FAMILY, AND MY SISTERS. IT'S FUNNY HOW SOME HAVE RESPONDED TO THAT AND MY CHOICE BUT IN THE END, [00:30:05] I'M JUST A WIFE. I'M A MOM AND I'M A SISTER AND A FRIEND WHO IS FIGHTING FOR MY OWN LIFE AGAINST BREAST CANCER. YOU KNOW WHAT, IT'S SAD THAT WOMEN HAVE TO CHOOSE. BUT HERE WE ARE. WHILE I'M SO GRATEFUL FOR THE CHANCE TO OBSERVED, IT IS MORE IMPORTANT NOW THAT I AM GRATEFUL FOR THE CHANCE TO GET TO LIVE. THANK YOU. [APPLAUSE] >> WE DO HAVE, AS I ALLUDED TO EARLIER, THIS PICTURE BOOK OVER THE LAST SIX YEARS. JOHN KEATING, HE ALSO WROTE A NICE LETTER HE'S OUT OF TOWN, OF COURSE, THAT HE WANTED ME TO READ, BUT ALLUDED TO MANY OF THE THINGS YOUR COLLEAGUES ALREADY SHARED. I DID PRINT THAT FOR YOU TO INCLUDE IN HERE WITH OTHER COMMENTS, SO I'LL LEAVE THAT WITH YOU ALL. THEN THIS OF COURSE, HOPEFULLY, I DON'T DROP THIS, IS A MOMENTO. I HAVEN'T OPENED IT, BUT I ASSUME IT'S OUR CLOCK. [NOISE] LET'S TAKE A LOOK. [LAUGHTER] SURPRISED. [LAUGHTER] NORMALLY IT'S A CLOCK, I GUESS WE REALIZED THAT IT'S ANTIQUATED. [LAUGHTER] THIS IS A BRILLIANT REPRESENTATION OF YOUR TIME HERE SERVING CITIZENS OF FRISCO. WE'LL LEAVE THIS YOUR DAUGHTER HERE. I KNOW THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT WANT TO LOVE ON SHAUNA UNTIL HER PERSONAL REMARKS. I KNOW WE HAVE A RECEPTION IN THE BACK, SO NOW WE'LL TAKE A QUICK RECESS FOR A SESSION. >> [INAUDIBLE]. >> YEAH. SOMEONE, IF YOU WANT TO SPEAK YOU'RE MORE THAN WELCOME, PLEASE COME UP. >> [NOISE] I DON'T WANT TO READ THE CARDS I GOT. I'LL SIT BACK HERE. >> WE HAVE SHANNON HAMMOND. [BACKGROUND] >> SHAUNA, JUST BRIEFLY FROM WATCHING YOU BLOSSOM WHEN I WORKED AT CARROLL ELEMENTARY FROM A WEEPY MOM BRINGING CHLOE IS A KINDERGARTENER WHEN WE FIRST MET. SEEING YOU GROW INTO JUST A STRONG COMMUNITY LEADER THAT'S KIND, LOVING, HAS BEEN A JOY. ALSO SPECIFICALLY FROM THE HAMMONDS, YOU'RE GOING TO BAT FOR COUNT NOW TO ESCAPE DURING COVID, JUST BEING AN ADVOCATE FOR US TO BE ABLE TO OPEN BACK UP REALLY MEANT A LOT TO US. MOST IMPORTANTLY, NOW THAT YOU WILL NOT BE AN OFFICIAL COMMUNITY LEADER LIKE IN THE PUBLIC LIMELIGHT. I'M HOPING THAT YOU WILL FOR THE FIRST TIME JOINED ALL OF THE WOMEN AT FRISCO WEARING WHITE PANTS THE DAY AFTER LABOR DAY. [APPLAUSE] >> THOR ANDERSON. >> THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME SPEAK, SHAUNA, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR I REMEMBER MEETING YOU MANY TIMES. WE'RE ONE OF THE TIMES DURING AN ELECTION IN FRONT OF COLLIN COLLEGE WHERE WE'RE SUPPORTING YOUR ELECTION AND THOSE THINGS. BUT I WANT TO GO BACK TO A SPECIFIC DAY OF JANUARY 6 OF LAST YEAR, 2021, WHEREAS THE AMBULANCE HAS TAKEN ME AWAY TO TEXAS HEALTH. MY WIFE MADE ONE PHONE CALL AND THAT WAS TO YOU, THE VERY FIRST ONE. SHE WAS QUITE WORRIED ABOUT MY HEALTH OBVIOUSLY. YOUR RESPONSE WAS, DON'T WORRY, WE'VE GOT THIS. YOU WERE THERE FOR MY FAMILY. I KNOW THAT THE NURSES TOLD ME THAT YOU CHECKED ON ME FOR THE EIGHT DAYS I WAS ON A VENTILATOR. YOU CHECKED ON ME REGULARLY. YOU REPORTED BACK TO MY WIFE. YOU WERE THERE FOR ME AND MY FAMILY THAT WHOLE TIME. LIKE YOU'VE BEEN WITH FOR THE CITY OF FRISCO. I WANTED TO JUST THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING YOU'VE DONE AND I HOPE THAT WE CAN BE HERE FOR YOU. [APPLAUSE] [00:35:09] >> DONNA SMALLER. >> EVERYONE HAS SAID SO MANY WONDERFUL, LOVELY THINGS, BUT I THANK YOU FOR YOUR FRIENDSHIP. I REMEMBER MEETING YOU MAYBE 10 YEARS AGO, AT A CHAMBER, AND THEN YOU WERE SO GOOD TO ME AND GETTING MY FAMILY TOGETHER FOR THE CITIZEN OF THE YEAR AND JUST RECENTLY WITH DENNIS HOSPITALIZATION. YOU WERE THERE FOR US AND YOU POINTED US IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. I APPRECIATE YOUR FRIENDSHIP SO MUCH. YOU ARE A STRONG WOMAN, YOU RAISE BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTERS, AND YOU'VE GOT THIS SHAUNA. [APPLAUSE] >> KATHY HELMS. >> [LAUGHTER] NO MATTER. IT'S OKAY. I REALLY WANTED TO SAY, SHAUNA, BESIDES BEING A LOYAL FRIEND, LIFELONG FRIEND, WE ALL KNOW THAT YOU ARE STRONG. BUT MORE THAN THAT, YOU MAKE THINGS STRONGER. FRISCO IS STRONGER BECAUSE OF YOU. THIS COUNCIL IS STRONGER BECAUSE OF YOU. BECAUSE OF THAT STRENGTH, YOU CAN REST IN THE FACT THAT WHAT ECCLESIASTES SAYS IS TRUE. THERE IS A TIME FOR EVERY PURPOSE IN HEAVEN. THE TIME TO LAUGH, A TIME TO WEEP, TO MOURN, TO HEAL, AND A TIME TO DANCE. SHAUNA, THIS IS YOUR TIME NOW TO BE STRONG FOR YOURSELF SO THAT YOU CAN CONTINUE TO MAKE EVERYTHING AROUND YOU STRONGER. MAYBE YOU'LL EVEN HAVE A LITTLE TIME BUT TO CUT FOOTLOOSE. [LAUGHTER] THANK YOU. [APPLAUSE] >> LAST BUT NOT LEAST, MR. WILSON. >> ITS NOW TIME TO PAY TRIBUTE TO A FORMER COLLEAGUE, SHAUNA HUFFMAN. SHAUNA HAS LIVED A LIFE OF PURPOSE, PERSISTENCE, AND DETERMINATION. SHE'S A PERSON OF CHARACTER. SINCE MANY DON'T KNOW HER REAL STORY. I THOUGHT I WOULD SHARE A LITTLE TONIGHT. SHAUNA GREW UP BEING RAISED BY HER SINGLE WORKING MOM, HER DAD, AN ALCOHOLIC, HAD ABANDONED THEM. I THINK IT'S HARD IN TODAY'S WORLD TO UNDERSTAND, BUT BEING THE DAUGHTER OF AN UNEDUCATED SINGLE MOM LED TO MANY PEOPLE RIDICULING HER. THAT'S A TOUGH PLACE TO BE AND THE MANY STRUGGLE TO MOVE ON FROM THAT PLACE. SHAUNA TOOK THAT START IN OUR FULBRIGHT ACADEMIC SCHOLARSHIP TO COLLEGE. THAT'S CHARACTER. AFTER COLLEGE, SHE BECAME A HISTORY TEACHER WITH A PASSION FOR DEBATE TO APPEAR AS WE, SOME OF US HAVE NOW SEEN C-SPAN TO TEACH US ABOUT DEMOCRACY RELATIVE TO THE WRITINGS OF TOCQUEVILLE. FORMER STUDENTS STILL REACH OUT TO HER TO THANK YOU FOR THE IMPACT THAT SHE HAS HAD ON THEIR LIVES, THAT'S ALSO CHARACTER. LATER IN LIFE, SHAUNA WOULD HAVE TWO GIRLS OF HER OWN. SHE RAISED THEM THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS AS A SINGLE MOM AS SHE SERVED AS THE ONLY WOMAN ON THE FRISCO CITY COUNCIL. ONE IS FOLLOWING IN HER FOOTSTEPS AS AN EDUCATION MAJOR AT OU. THE OTHER IS HEAD-TO-TOE YOU IN THE FALL. HER DAUGHTERS ARE SUCCESSFUL BECAUSE OF SHAUNA'S CHARACTER. SHAUNA HAD MANY ACCOMPLISHMENTS DURING HER TIME ON THE FRISCO CITY COUNCIL. SHE SERVED AS THE CHAIR OF THE LEGISLATIVE COMMITTEE, GRADUALLY TESTIFYING ON ISSUES THAT MATTER TO FRISCO AND OTHERS JUST WOULD NOT. SHE WAS ELECTED MAYOR PRO TEM AND DEPUTY MAYOR PRO TEM. SHE SERVED ON THE COUNCIL SUBCOMMITTEE ON THE ARTS TO LEAD THE WAY TO THE PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN THE CITY OF FRISCO, FRISCO ISD, AND WHOLE PARK TO BUILD A PERFORMING ARTS CENTER IN FRISCO. SHE WAS AN ADVOCATE FOR OUR FIRST RESPONDERS WORKING TO CLOSE GAPS AND WORKMAN'S COMP COVERAGE DURING SPECIAL EVENTS. IT WAS SHAUNA'S ORIGINAL IDEA TO REQUIRED DEVELOPERS TO FACE THEIR DEVELOPMENTS TO ENSURE THAT THE CITY BENEFITED FROM THE RETAIL AND/OR COMMERCIAL PART OF THE DEVELOPMENT, IN THE FIRST PHASE, NOT JUST MULTI-FAMILY. SHE BUILT INCREDIBLY STRONG RELATIONSHIPS WITH MANY ON CITY STAFF AS SHE WORKED TO UNDERSTAND DETAILS. [NOISE] THAT IS HOW A PERSON OF CHARACTER GOVERNS. NOW SHE FACES A BATTLE WITH CANCER. [00:40:01] TODAY IS DAY 6, AFTER A SIX-HOUR SURGERY. SHE'S IN PAIN MORE THAN SHE WILL ADMIT. SHE STRUGGLES TO GET OUT OF A CHAIR. SHE HAS TWO DRAINS THAT LOOKED LIKE SIX-SHOOTERS THAT SHE'S CARRYING TONIGHT. BUT TONIGHT SHE'S HERE, THAT TOO IS CHARACTER. IT'S BEEN SAID THAT CHARACTER IS NOT SOMETHING THAT YOU BUY AND IT'S NOT A COMMODITY THAT CAN BE BARTERED FORWARD, IS NOT EQUALITY SUITED FOR ONLY THE RICH OR THE ELECTED. RATHER CHARACTER IS BUILT UPON THE FOUNDATIONAL COMMITMENTS OF LOVE, HONESTY, COMPASSION FOR OTHERS. SOMETHING I'VE LONG SEEN IN SHAUNA AND CERTAINLY OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF MONTHS, SHE IS SHOWING GRACE AND QUANTITY THAN MOST OF US. GRACE AND CHARACTER IN A QUANTITY THAT MOST OF US WILL NEVER EXPERIENCE. IN THE END, IT IS THE PERSON YOU BECOME, NOT THE THINGS YOU ACHIEVE THAT IS MOST IMPORTANT. TONIGHT TO REMIND YOU THAT CHARACTER MATTERS BECAUSE FRISCO'S FUTURE REQUIRES VIRTUOUS LEADERS TO GUIDE IT. WHILE MANY OF US TONIGHT ARE WEARING STRONG SHAUNA T-SHIRTS, PERHAPS MEDIA BUZZ SHOULD BE THINKING OF A CHARACTER LIKE SHAUNA. THANK YOU. [APPLAUSE] >> IF ANYONE ELSE WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK, FEEL FREE TO GET YOUR BLUE CARD, SIR. [LAUGHTER] >> I FORGOT WHAT THAT WAS, SORRY. BUT THANK YOU, MAYOR FOR ALLOWING ME TO SPEAK HERE AND I'LL FEEL VERY MUCH HONORED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE. I'M NOT GOING TO REPEAT THE 1,000 HOURS OF THINGS WE KNOW ABOUT YOU, THE THOUSANDS OF HOURS YOU PUT INTO THIS COMMUNITY EVEN BEFORE COUNCIL, CHAMBER COMMERCE AND IN THE COMMUNITY. WE HAVE ALL SEEN THAT BY JUST LOOKING AROUND OUR COMMUNITY. WE ALL KNOW THAT BY LOOKING AROUND THE COMMUNITY. WE ALL KNOW THAT BY LOOKING AT BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTERS HOW YOU RAISE THEM, AND THE FAMILY AND THE CLOSE TIES YOU'VE CREATED. SO I'M NOT GOING TO TALK ABOUT COURAGE YOU HAVE, AND I'M NOT GOING TO TALK ABOUT THE DEDICATION OR SERVE IN LEADERSHIP. WE KNOW THOSE ARE YOUR TRAITS. YOU NEVER HAS STAYED STAND UP FOR THE RIGHT THING FOR THE COMMUNITY. YOU HAD THE COURAGE TO DO SO ALL WAS NOT EASY. AND WHAT I REALLY WANTED TO TOUCH ON IS THE COURAGE AND THE DEDICATION OF THE COMMUNITY TO SUPPORT YOU. THIS IS JUST AN EVENT YOU'VE SERVED THE COMMUNITY WE'RE SAYING THANK YOU TONIGHT. BUT IT DOESN'T END HERE, IT'S JUST A JOURNEY, AND BECAUSE OF YOUR COURAGE, BECAUSE OF YOUR DEDICATION, IT'S A JOURNEY I'M CONFIDENT THAT YOU'RE GOING TO TAKE SUCCESSFULLY. BUT I WILL TELL YOU, I KNOW ENOUGH PEOPLE IN FRISCO THAT CARE ABOUT YOU, THAT LOVE YOU, AND THEY WILL HAVE THE COURAGE TO SUPPORT YOU. THEY WILL HAVE THE DEDICATION TO SUPPORT YOU AND WE WANT TO BE ON THIS JOURNEY WITH YOU. SO JUST REMEMBER THAT, REMEMBER WE'RE HERE AND WE KNOW THIS IS NOT THE END. THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING OF THE NEXT JOURNEY. AND I KNOW YOU WELL ENOUGH TO KNOW YOU'LL BE BACK IN SOME FORM OR FASHION. AND I THINK WE'LL VERY THANKFUL FOR THAT. I'M SORRY, AND I'M NOT SORRY FOR YOU UNNECESSARILY. I SUPPORT YOU, BUT I'M SORRY FOR THE COMMUNITY. I'M SORRY THAT WE'RE GOING TO LOSE YOUR VOICE FOR A SHORT WHILE. WE'RE GOING TO LOSE THAT COURAGE DEDICATION FOR SURE AWHILE. BUT JUST WE LOVE YOU. WE'RE HERE FOR YOU, WE'RE HERE FOR YOUR FAMILY. AS A CANCER SURVIVOR, I AM A CANCER SURVIVOR, THE DOCTORS DO A REALLY GOOD JOB, SOME OF IT'S GUESSWORK BUT THEY TRY THEIR BEST. YOUR FAMILY IS THERE, JUST AS IMPORTANT AS THE DOCTORS. YOUR COMMUNITY IS JUST AS IMPORTANT AS THE DOCTORS AND YOUR FAITH HAVING THAT FAITH. IT'S REALLY A CONCENTRATED EFFORT AND I'M CONFIDENT YOU HAVE ALL THOSE. YOU HAVE US, YOU HAVE YOUR FAMILY, YOU HAVE YOUR FAITH, AND YOU HAVE THE DOCTORS. SO WE GOT IT. WE GOT THIS IN HERE. SO THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE. IT'S BEEN AN HONOR TO SERVE WITH YOU OVER MANY YEARS, AND TO LEARN FROM YOU. I LEARNED A LOT FROM YOUR SERVICE AND GREW FROM YOUR SERVICE. AND THAT WON'T STOP IN EVERYTHING YOU DO. SO I JUST CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT'S NEXT FROM THAT PERSPECTIVE. THANK YOU AGAIN FOR SERVING THE CITY OF FRISCO. [APPLAUSE] [5. Recess for Reception.] >> I'LL LOOK FOR A MOTION FOR RECESS TO THE RECEPTION. MOTION BY BILL SECOND BY BRIAN IN FAVOR. THE MOTION PASSES FIVE ZERO. RECESS FOR THE [INAUDIBLE] WOULD BE OUT HERE IN THE LOBBY. [LAUGHTER] [00:45:01] >> CAN I HAVE MOTION TO RECONVENE. [6. Reconvene into Regular Session.] SECONDED MY BRIAN ON FAVOR. >> [OVERLAPPING] AYE. >> MOTION PASSES FOUR ZERO. WE ARE RECONVENE REGULAR SESSION AT 8:02 PM. THAT WILL MOVE US INTO CITIZEN INPUT. [CITIZEN INPUT (to begin approximately at 7:30 p.m.)] IS THERE ANYONE THAT WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON CITIZEN INPUT? DO WE HAVE A CARD SENDER? >> WE DO HAVE A CARD. DESMOND LEE, PLEASE COME UP AND STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS. >> MY NAME IS DESMOND LEE. DO I BEGIN? >> STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS. >> DESMOND LEE ON DESOTO TEXAS, OF 404 BRAND TREE CIRCLE DESOTO, TEXAS. I HAVE ANOTHER ADDRESS OF 208 PRAIRIE GROVE, DALLAS, TEXAS. >> GO AHEAD. >> ON MARCH 6TH, ME AND MY GIRLFRIEND, WE DROVE FROM DESOTO TO FRISCO TO VISIT ONE OF OUR FORK, THE RESTAURANT THAT SELLS RAW MEAT. ON THE CAR RIDE, WE WERE TALKING ABOUT PUPPY, SHE WANTED TO BUY A PUPPY. AND SO WE GOOGLED AND WE ENDED UP AT LA FRISCO. WE WERE TOLD BY THE SALESPERSON WHO ASSISTED US, THAT THE PUPPIES COME FROM TOP BREEDERS AND THAT THEY HAVE A GREAT WARRANTY, AND THAT WE COULD RETURN A DOG IF IT WAS SICK OR DIE WITHIN 14 DAYS. WE HAD TO USE THEIR CONTRACT VET, IN ORDER TO NOT VOID THE WARRANTY. AND THE PUPPY SHOULDN'T BE SICK BECAUSE HE WAS LOOKED AT BY THREE DIFFERENT VETS. AND THE ONLY THING THAT WHEN WE BROUGHT THE PUPPY HOME, HE STILL HAD A COUGH OR SNEEZE, IT SHOULDN'T BE ANYTHING MORE. WE PAID $10,200 FOR THE PUPPY. WITHIN SIX HOURS OF GETTING HOME, THE DOG HAD DIARRHEA, BLOOD IN HIS STOOL, RUNNY NOSE AND WOULD NOT EAT. THE NEXT DAY WE TAKES IT TO THE SALESPERSON NAMED CHRISTINE AT PETLAND AND WE EXPLAINED TO HER WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS, WHAT THE DOG WAS DOING. SHE TOLD US TO TRY TO PUT HOT WATER IN THE FOOD, CHICKEN BROTH OR PUT FOOD IN THE BLANKET OR SEE IF HE EAT IT OUT OF OUR HANDS. SHE ALSO TOLD ME IT COULD BE AN ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGE FROM LEAVING THE STORE TO GO HOME. HE NEVER GOT BETTER. SO WE CALLED PETLAND'S VET AND WE GOT AN APPOINTMENT FOR THURSDAY WHICH WAS FOUR DAYS LATER AFTER THE PURCHASE. THE VET DIAGNOSED THE PUPPY WITH GIARDIA, IS A CONTAGIOUS PARASITE. WE HAD TO PAY $85. WE WERE ALSO TOLD WE WILL HAVE TO PAY ANOTHER $90 FOR A RECHECK UP. WE CALL PETLAND AND ALL THEY SAID IS THAT THEY WERE SORRY, AND TO CALL THE WARRANTY COMPANY TO FILE A CLAIM, THEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO REIMBURSE YOU AND HOPEFULLY COVER ANYTHING ON YOUR TRIP BACK. WE WERE ORIGINALLY TOLD ABOUT PETLAND THAT THERE WOULD BE NO CHARGE. PETLAND'S WARRANTY STATES THAT IF THE PUPPY IS DIAGNOSED WITH GIARDIA THAT'S COMMON. BUT AFTER I RESEARCH, I FOUND THAT IF THAT IS NOT COMMON WITH ANY GOOD BREEDER. I ALSO LEARNED THAT IF THERE IS BLOOD IN THE PUPPY STOOL AT THIS YOUNG AGE, ONE OF THE FIRST TEST THAT IS DONE AS PARVO. AND I ALSO ASKED IF WE COULD GET AN EXCHANGE BECAUSE THE DOG WAS SICK AND THEY TOLD ME NO. SO I CALLED THE WARRANTY COMPANY AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THE STORIES OF FRANCHISE. I GUESS DALLAS IS NOT A FRANCHISE BUT FRISCO IS A FRANCHISE AND THEY CAN DO WHATEVER THEY PLEASE. SHE TOLD ME SHE REALLY COULDN'T HELP ME. I THEN TOLD HER THAT THE SALESPERSON SAID WE COULDN'T EXCHANGE THE DOG WITHIN 14 DAYS IF IT WERE SICK OR IF HE DIED IN AN ACCIDENT. HOWEVER, THE WARRANTY COMPANY TOLD ME THAT THAT WAS A LIE AND SHE REALLY COULDN'T HELP ME. BUT I SHOULD SEE IF I CAN SELL THE DOG MYSELF AND GET SOME MONEY BACK. THIS IS THE WARRANTY THAT IS SO GOOD. THIS IS WHERE I PAY $10,000 FOR. THEY TOOK NO RESPONSIBILITY. ONCE I WALKED OUT THE DOOR, WE WERE LIED TO AND SCAMMED. THESE PUPPIES ARE COMING FROM PUPPY MILLS. THEN I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THE BREEDER AND I FOUND THAT HE HAS A HISTORY OF VIOLATIONS INCLUDING EXCESSIVELY RUSTY CAGES, WIRES ARE BROKEN, BUILT-UP DIRT, CHEWED BONES, AND DOGS WITH [00:50:02] UNTREATED EYE PROBLEMS AND SOME DEAD MICE FOUND FLOATING IN DOGS DRINKING WATER. I DO HAVE A PERSONAL PIT-BULL ANOTHER DOG, BUT I DON'T KNOW A LOT ABOUT DOGS, I'M NOT A VET. SO THE STORE THEY GAVE ME A PAPER THAT I HAD THE SIGN EXPLAINING THAT HUMANS CAN BE INFECTED BY GIARDIA AND A LOT OF OTHER DISEASES. I HAVE THREE YOUNG CHILDREN. I WENT INTO PANIC MODE BECAUSE I THOUGHT THAT THEY COULD GET SICK. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THE STORE EVEN EXIST. I NOW HAVE A NEW PUPPY FOR ONE WEEK AND HE IS ON THREE DIFFERENT MEDICATIONS TO GET HIM HEALTHY. THANK GOD FOR THE HOTLINE THAT I'VE FOUND TO HELP ME WITNESS ASSISTANCE TO COME IN HERE. AND THAT'S ALL. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >> THANK YOU. >> YOU WANT TO SPEAK AS WELL? >> NO, I WILL JUST SUPPORT. >> THANK YOU FOR THE FEEDBACK DURING CITIZEN INPUT IS FOR US TO RECEIVE FEEDBACK, BUT I DO WANT TO TELL YOU CHIEF WILSON IS COME DOWN BECAUSE WE DO TAKE EVERY COMPLAINT SERIOUSLY AND WE WANT TO INVESTIGATE THAT COMPLAINT WHERE SHE HAD ORDINANCE PUT IN PLACE LAST YEAR'S PUTTING STRICT ENFORCEMENT ON ATLANTA. WE TOLD HIM AT THE TIME WE HAVE A ZERO-TOLERANCE POLICY. SO WE DEFINITELY WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE SITUATION IN YOUR PUPPY AND WHAT'S HAPPENED SO THAT WE CAN LOOK INTO THAT AND SEE WHAT WE CAN DO TO ASSIST YOU TO RESOLVE IT. >> ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU. >> CHIEF IS DIRECTLY BEHIND YOU. >> ALL RIGHT. >> THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >> THANK YOU. >> SO ANYONE ELSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK DURING CITIZEN INPUT? THAT WILL MOVE US TO OUR REPORTS SECTION ITEM 8 [8. Business Services monthly report for February 2022.] IS THE BUSINESS SERVICES MONTHLY REPORT FOR FEBRUARY. >> GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL.

PAUL'S ANNUAL DEPARTMENT REPORT THAT HE DID. WE TOOK HIS REPORT AND WE DID THE SAME THING FOR OUR DEPARTMENTS AND SO I HOPE YOU HAVE TIME TO LOOK AT THAT. IT JUST GIVES YOU SOME INFORMATION ABOUT OUR DEPARTMENTS IN WHAT WE DO FOR THE CITY. SO WE'VE GOT OUR CORE VALUE OF AWARD WINNERS IN THE AIR AND JUST OUR ORG CHARTS. SO IT'S JUST A REAL SHORT LITTLE RATE, SO WE DID THAT. THANK YOU, PAUL. I'D BE GLAD TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. >> COUNCIL ANY QUESTIONS? NO THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU. [9. Development Services monthly activity update report for the month of February 2022.] >> ITEM 9, DEVELOPMENT SERVICES MONTHLY REPORT. >> IN THE INTERESTS OF TIME, I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING BIG TO ANNOUNCE. SO HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. >> COUNCIL, ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE TO ASK? >> ITEM 10 IS OUR VISIT TO FRISCO [NOISE] REPORT. [10. Visit Frisco January and February 2022 sales and marketing reports.] >> GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. WE JUST WRAPPED UP A COUPLE OF BASKETBALL CHAMPIONSHIPS WITH LONE STAR CONFERENCE AND CONFERENCE USA. THIS WENT REALLY WELL. THERE'S QUITE A FEW EVENTS I WOULD ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO GO TO OUR WEBSITE. THERE'S CIRCUS AND ALL EVENTS HAPPENING IN FRISCO IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS. THEN ON MY MONTHLY REPORT, ONE OF THE THINGS I WAS GOING TO POINT OUT IS THAT OF OUR TEAM BOOKINGS THAT WE HAD IN FEBRUARY, SIX OF THOSE ARE CORPORATE, SO WE'RE CONTINUING TO SEE THAT CORPORATE BUSINESS REBOUND, WHICH IS REALLY GOING TO BE GREAT FOR OUR ECONOMY. THEN I DID INCLUDE TWO SMITH TRAVEL REPORTS, THE LONG ONES WITH A LOT OF NUMBERS IN THEM, BUT ONE WAS FROM 2019 AND THE OTHER FROM 2021. YOU COULD GO BACK AND DO A MONTH-BY-MONTH COMPARISON SINCE THAT'S WHERE WE'RE TRACKING TO TRY AND GET BACK TO 2019 NUMBERS. IT'S A LOT TO LOOK AT, BUT IT'S VERY INSIGHTFUL WHEN YOU CAN SEE THE DIFFERENCES AND YOU CAN ALSO SEE WHEN THE WAVES OF THE PANDEMIC WAS HEADING WHEN OCCUPANCY DROPPED AND THEN CAME BACK UP AGAIN. BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY OTHER QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE. >> HEY, NOW I THINK A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE NOT AWARE THAT THE CIRCUS IS IN TOWN. >> IT IS. >> I WAS ABLE TO GO BY THERE TODAY TO CELEBRATE WITH THEM BECAUSE THEY DONATED A LOT OF TICKETS TO THE BOYS AND GIRLS CLUB, AND SO I BELIEVE THEY'RE ALL GOING TO BE THERE ON SUNDAY. I'M ENJOYING IN IT. BUT WHAT I LEARNED IS A LOT OF THE PERFORMERS IN THE CIRCUS ARE FROM UKRAINE. IT'S A SPECIAL EVENT, AND THEY WERE VERY THANKFUL CERTAINLY TO BE HERE AND BE ABLE TO PERFORM FOR OUR RESIDENTS. ENCOURAGE ANYONE THAT CAN MAKE IT OUT TO SUPPORT THE CIRCUS TO DO SO. I BELIEVE THEY'RE HERE. I THINK THEY SAID THROUGH APRIL 3RD, ROUGHLY I THINK. PLENTY OF GOOD SEATS AVAILABLE. WITH THAT COUNCIL ANY THE OTHER QUESTIONS THAT YOU HAVE? [OVERLAPPING] THANK YOU. [00:55:03] THAT WILL MOVE US INTO ITEM 11 OUR FIRE DEPARTMENT REPORT. [11. Fire Department monthly report on incident responses and educational activities for the month of February 2022.] >> GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. JUST LIKE TO RECOGNIZE FIRST CAPTAIN NEIL SELF, 30 YEARS IN THE CITY OF FRISCO. THANKS, GEORGE AND HENRY FOR COMING BY AND RECOGNIZING A CAPTAIN SELF. ONE OF THE ORIGINAL FIREFIGHTERS HERE IN FRISCO. HE'S GOT A LOT OF STORIES AND WE GET SHARE LOT OF STORIES THAT DAY ABOUT SOME OF THE EARLY DAYS HERE IN THE CITY. JUST APPRECIATE HIM COMING BY RECOGNIZING NEIL AND THE GRADUATIONS ON HIS SERVICE. THIS WAS THE MAYOR'S YOUTH COUNCIL LAST MONTH. YOU CAN SEE THAT THE KIDS GOT AN OPPORTUNITY TO EAT WITH POLICE AND FIRE, THERE TO GIVE THEM SOME POWERPOINT IN SOME CLASSES INITIALLY, THEN THEY GOT TO COME OUT TO THE TRAINING CENTER. THEY GET TO FIGHT A CAR FIRE AND LOOK WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE INSIDE A BURNING BUILDING AND SOME MAY HAVE HAD A GREAT TIME THAT NIGHT. I THINK THEY ALL ENJOYED THEMSELVES AS WELL AT THE TRAINING CENTER. I'M JUST REALLY GLAD TO HAVE THAT GROUP. JUST HIGHLIGHT INCIDENT COMMAND TRAINING IS GOING ON IN THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. WE'RE TRAINING ALL OF OUR OFFICERS AND STEP-UPS IN WHAT'S CALLED BLUE CAR TRAINING INCIDENCE AND THE COMMAND COURSE. THESE OFFICERS HAVE GONE THROUGH 50-60 HOURS OF TRAINING BEFORE THEY EVEN HIT THE CLASSROOM. IT'S A THREE-DAY CLASS, LIKE I SAID, IF 50 HOURS BEFORE THEN. WE'LL PRACTICE THIS IN OUR LIVE BURNS IN MAY, AND HOPEFULLY WE'LL IMPLEMENT THE BLUE CARD INCIDENT COMMAND TRAINING IN THE MONTH OF JUNE. A LOT OF WORK GOING ON THERE, A LOT OF CLASSROOM TIME, AND A LOT OF PREP TIME BEFORE THEY ACTUALLY GET TO THE CLASSROOM. JUST WANT TO HIGHLIGHT OUR BLOOD PROGRAM. IT STARTED IN DECEMBER OF 2018. WE'VE GIVEN BLOOD 24 TIMES. THESE ARE FOLKS THAT ARE EITHER BLEEDING INTERNALLY OR HAD A TRAUMATIC INJURY OR ACCIDENT. THOSE REPRESENT LIVES SAVED UP THERE. THERE'S ONLY THREE FIRE DEPARTMENTS IN THE STATE OF TEXAS THAT CAN ADMINISTER BLOOD PRODUCTS, PRE-HOSPITAL. WE ARE ONE OF THOSE DEPARTMENTS. WE JUST LIKE TO JUST THANK MEDICAL CITY PLANO'S LEVEL 1 TRAUMA CENTER THAT ACTUALLY WORKS WITH US IN OUR BLOOD PROGRAM. THE BLOOD LOOKS LIKE IT'S GETTING NEAR TO THE EXPIRATION DATE, WOULD SWITCH IT OUT, SO NOT ONE DROP OF BLOOD IS EVER WASTED, AND WE'VE USED IT IN A VARIETY OF CALLS. I JUST WANT TO HIGHLIGHT THAT PROGRAM. IT REALLY DOES SAVE LIVES HERE IN THE CITY. WE'VE GOT A VARIETY OF THINGS THAT WE OFFER IN THE DEPARTMENT. STOP THE BLEED CLASSES, CPR, AED, LOOK AT FRISCOFIRE.COM FOR THOSE CLASSES. WE'D LOVE TO HAVE YOU THERE AND ALSO REMIND EVERYBODY THAT MARCH TO END OF JUNE IS TORNADO SEASON. TWO THINGS TO BE COGNIZANT OF IS WATCH VERSUS WARNING. WATCHES ARE WHEN THE CONDITIONS ARE FAVORABLE FOR A TORNADO. IF YOU HEAR A WATCH AND WARNING IS AS CONDITION THAT IT'S POSSIBLY THE TORNADO IS IMMINENT AND YOU SHOULD TAKE ACTION TO TAKE COVER. WE ASKED PEOPLE IF YOU DON'T HAVE AN ALERT SYSTEM, AGAIN, GO TO OUR WEBSITE AND SIGN UP FOR CODE RED. YOU CAN PUT A VARIETY OF THINGS IN THERE, WHETHER IT'S TEXT MESSAGE, CELL PHONE, WHATEVER FORM OF COMMUNICATION THAT YOU LIKE. YOU'LL GET PRE-WARMING ON THESE WEATHER EVENTS THAT COME THROUGH THERE. ALSO IN TERMS OF SIRENS, WE HAVE INCLEMENT WEATHER SIRENS IN CITY OF FRISCO. THEY WILL GO OFF IN THE EVENT THAT THERE IS A TORNADO, BUT THEY ARE NOT TORNADO SIRENS. THEY CAN GO OFF FOR HAIL, THEY COULD GO OFF OR THUNDERSTORMS, A VARIETY OF THINGS, AND THEY'RE ALSO NOT DESIGNED TO BE HEARD IN YOUR HOME. WE GET THAT QUESTION A LOT ABOUT I DIDN'T HEAR THE SIREN IN MY HOUSE. THEY'RE DESIGNED TO HEAR OUTDOORS. IF YOU HEAR THAT AND YOU'RE OUTDOORS IT'S TO TAKE SHELTER. THAT SOME TYPE OF WEATHER EVENT IS INCOMING AND YOU SHOULD TAKE SOME INSIDE SHELTER. DON'T BE ALARMED IF YOU DON'T HEAR THE SIREN. YOU MAY HEAR IT SOME TIME DEPENDENT UPON WIND AND HOW SOUND TRAVELS, THEN MAYBE SOMETIMES YOU DO HERE IT INSIDE YOUR HOME BUT THEY'RE REALLY NOT DESIGNED FOR THAT. THEY'RE DESIGNED FOR OUTDOOR WARNING. AGAIN, JUST LOOK AT AREAS IN YOUR HOME IN THE EVENT THAT YOU'RE UNDER A TORNADO WATCH AND A TORNADO MIGHT BE UPON US THAT YOU COULD GET INTERIOR COVER INSIDE YOUR HOME. THAT'S ALL I HAVE FOR THIS EVENING. BE GLAD TO TAKE ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE ABOUT OUR REPORT. >> THANK YOU, CHIEF. COUNCIL, WHAT QUESTIONS DO YOU HAVE? THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU. >> I'LL NOW TAKE US TO ITEM 12 OUR POLICE DEPARTMENT REPORT. [12.

[01:00:04] BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. >> THANK YOU CHIEF. COUNCIL. ANY QUESTIONS? CHIEF? >> CHIEF I DO HAVE ONE QUESTION. I'M CURIOUS ABOUT THE SIZABLE INCREASE IN BURGLARIES, IT LOOKS LIKE FOR THE MONTH IT WENT UP BY 255% IF I'M FOLLOWING CORRECTLY. CAN YOU SPEAK TO WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH THAT? >> YES. YOU'RE REFERRING TO THE BURGLARIES OVERALL OR SPECIFICALLY BUILDING OR HABITATION BURGLARIES? >> [OVERLAPPING] THE MOST OVERALL. I THINK IN THE BUILDING IS PROBABLY WHERE THE BIGGEST JUMP WAS, LOOKS LIKE. >> YEAH. A LOT OF TIMES I'LL HAVE TO DIG INTO THE EXACT CASES TO SEE IF IT WAS ONE OF THOSE TYPES OF EVENTS WHERE SOMETIMES WHEN A STORAGE FACILITY IS HIT MULTIPLE UNITS ARE HIT. EACH ONE OF THOSE UNITS ARE A DIFFERENT OFFENSE. I DON'T KNOW THAT THAT'S THE CIRCUMSTANCE, THIS OCCASION, BUT I WILL CHECK INTO THAT AND I CAN CERTAINLY RESPOND BACK TO YOU WITH AN ANSWER. >> YES, SIR. JUST CURIOUS. >> YEAH. >> THANK YOU CHIEF. >> THANK YOU. >> THAT WILL MOVE US TO ITEM 13, [13.

ONE OF THE CONCERNS THAT CAME UP REGARDING THIS LOCATION, THAT PAINS THEY HAD WAS ABOUT TRENTON MIDDLE SCHOOL THAT'S LOCATED ON THE WEST SIDE OF COLORADO. THE CONCERN WAS, WOULD THERE BE A CONFLICT BETWEEN THE DROP-OFF AND PICK-UP TIMES OF THE DAYCARE. TRENTON MIDDLE SCHOOL, THEY HAVE A LONG CIRCULATION AILE THAT WRAPS AROUND THE SCHOOL AND THEN ON THIS PARTICULAR SIDE THERE IS A CIRCULATION PLAN THAT WE DO FOR ALL DAYCARES AND TO INCORPORATE THAT INTO THE ORDINANCE OR TRAFFIC DIVISION TOOK A LOOK AT THIS FOR RECOMMENDED APPROVAL SO WITH THAT SAID, THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDED APPROVAL OF THIS ITEM BEFORE FOR YOU TONIGHT.

WHAT WERE TO HAPPEN IF SOMETHING WERE TO CHANGE AND THEY STARTED SERVING ALL DAY DAYCARE, WHAT WOULD THE PROCESS LOOK LIKE? WELL, HOPEFULLY THEY WOULD NOTIFY US, BUT IF THEY DON'T AND WE FIND OUT ABOUT IT, THEN THAT CHANGES THINGS SO THAT BECOMES A COURT ISSUE AT THAT POINT SO WHEN THE ENTROPY IS APPROVED, IT'S APPROVED WITH THESE CONDITIONS AND IT'S SPELLED OUT ON THE ORDINANCE THAT IF THEY CHANGE AND THEN THE CITY CAN COME BACK AND RE-EVALUATE THAT SUP.

MOTION PASSES FOUR, ZERO, AND IT'LL MOVE US TO ITEM 25, [25. Consider and act upon the approval of a Chapter 380 Agreement by and between Frisco Calaboose, LLC and the City of Frisco, Texas for the provision of a grant related to the development of a parking garage and other facilities in the downtown district. (CMO/RKP)] CONSIDERING AN ACT UPON APPROVAL OF A CHAPTER 380 AGREEMENT BY IN-BETWEEN FRISCO COLUMBUS, LOC AND THE CITY OF FRISCO FOR THE PROVISION OF A GRANT RELATED TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF A PARKING GARAGE AND OTHER FACILITIES IN THE DOWNTOWN DISTRICT. YES, SIR. AS YOU SAID, WE DO HAVE A CHAPTER 308 AGREEMENT BEFORE YOU [NOISE] THIS EVENING FOR CONSIDERATION. I DO WANT TO GIVE YOU THIS SO THAT YOU CAN SEE RELATIVELY WHERE THIS IS GOING TO BE LOCATED. YOU CAN SEE FIRST STREET. THEY'RE JUST SOUTH OF FRISCO SQUARE, NORTH ELM STREET AND THEN SECOND STREET THERE. YOU DO SEE THE A LITTLE BIT OF A SNIPPET THERE OF WHAT THE FACADES ARE GOING TO LOOK LIKE. I DO WANT TO POINT OUT THAT THIS PARTICULAR AGREEMENT DOES HAVE REQUIREMENTS ON BOTH THE DEVELOPER AND THE CITY RELATED TO THE COMPANY BEING THE DEVELOPER, WOULD BUILD A 40,000 SQUARE FOOT FACILITY THAT WOULD BE MADE UP OF A THREE-STOREY OFFICE BUILDING, ONE STORY BREWERY AND RESTAURANT. THAT BREWERY AND RESTAURANT IS MADE UP OF ABOUT 7,900 SQUARE FEET OF BREWERY MANUFACTURING, ABOUT 4,000 SQUARE FEET OF BREWERY RETAIL, AND THEN 3,600 SQUARE FEET OF RESTAURANT. THE COMPANY THAT WOULD BE GOING INTO THIS FRISCO BREWING COMPANY IS WHO IS CURRENTLY PLANNED, HOWEVER, ANOTHER COMPANY COULD OBVIOUSLY REPLACE THEM. IN OTHER WORDS, THEY CAN COME IN BEHIND THEM OR THEY COULD BE CHANGED OUT. IF SOMETHING WERE TO HAPPEN. ALSO, THERE WOULD BE A OPEN SPACE. THERE WOULD BE SETUPS BETWEEN THE BUILDINGS, ABOUT 18,000 SQUARE FEET. OBVIOUSLY, ONE OF THE BIGGEST ISSUES WE HAVE DOWNTOWN IS PARKING AND THIS WOULD ALSO CALL FOR A THREE-STORY PARKING GARAGE OF 208 SPACES, 150 OF THOSE PARKING SPACES COULD BE RESERVED BY THE COMPANY BETWEEN EIGHT AND FIVE MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY. HOWEVER, AFTER FIVE O'CLOCK AND ON THE WEEKENDS, ALL OF THAT PARKING WOULD BE AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC. THE GARAGE IS ESTIMATED TO COST ABOUT 7 MILLION DOLLARS APPROXIMATELY. THE GRANTS WOULD WORK LIKE THIS, THE LESSER OF 50 PERCENT OF THE ACTUAL GARAGE COST OR 3.5 MILLION DOLLARS TOTAL FOR THE GRANTS. THOSE TWO GRANT OR THAT PARTICULAR GRANT WOULD BE PAID FOR BY THE CITY AT 1.75 MILLION AND CDC 1.75 MILLION. I DO WANT TO POINT OUT THAT THE GRANTS THAT ARE OUTLINE HERE FOR THE CDC AND THE ADC HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED YET. THOSE WILL BE LOOKED AT BY THE CDC ON THURSDAY AND THE EDC TOMORROW EVENING. IN ADDITION TO THAT, THE EDC WOULD BE LOOKING AT THE QUALIFIED INFRASTRUCTURE GRANT OF 123,000.200 DOLLARS. THE CITY WOULD ALSO WEIGH 50 PERCENT OF THE ASSOCIATED IMPACT FEES THAT WOULD BE ROAD, WATER, AND SEWER. THEN FINALLY, THE GRANTS WOULD BE PAYABLE UPON COMPLETION OF THE IMPROVEMENTS AND THE BREWERY RECEIVING A BUILDING PERMIT. THAT SAID I'D BE GLAD TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU HAVE. I THINK I SAW MR. CHURCHMEN. THERE HE IS, RIGHT THERE. IS HERE IN CASE YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OF THE DEVELOPER. JUST IN GENERAL, THE STRUCTURE IS VERY SIMILAR TO THE STRUCTURES OF DEALS WE'VE DONE IN THE PAST, WITH THE PATIO AT THE RAILS AND SO FORTH TO BRING FORTH THE PUBLIC USE THAT WE NEED, WHICH IS TO INCREASE PARKING IN DOWNTOWN AND THAT NEED AS WE CONTINUE TO GROW AND IT CONTINUES TO THRIVE. BUT THIS IS IN LINE WITH PRIOR STRUCTURES. YES, SIR. IT IS VERY SIMILAR TO THE CHAPTER 380 THAT WE DID ON THE PATIOS ON THE RAIL. I SUPPORT THIS AND I'M EXCITED FOR THIS TO COME TO DOWNTOWN. I JUST HAVE ONE QUESTION I SHOULD HAVE ASKED IT EARLIER. HOW DO WE COME UP WITH 150 SPACES RESERVED FOR THE COMPANY OUT OF THE 208, [01:10:02] IS THERE A FORMULA THAT WE USE? WHAT WE LOOKED AT WAS IN THE DOWNTOWN AREA, THE SPACES REQUIRED FOR THE OFFICE WAS ACTUALLY FAIRLY MINIMAL. BUT WHAT WE DID WAS WE SAID IF THOSE NUMBER OF SPACES WERE ELSEWHERE, IN OTHER WORDS, HOW MUCH DO THEY NEED FOR THE OFFICE? THAT'S HOW WE USE THE FORMULA TO GO BACK INTO THAT BETWEEN THAT AND THE RESTAURANT. [NOISE] ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE ON THIS? LENGTHY DISCUSSIONS ON THE SIDE AND OVER TIME, SO IT'S GOOD TO GET THIS ONE TO THE FINISH LINE. LOOK FORWARD TO THE GROUNDBREAKING SO COUNCIL THERE'S NO OTHER QUESTIONS. I'LL LOOK FOR A MOTION TO APPROVE ITEM 25 I CAN ASSUME BY BILL, SECOND BY BRIAN. ALL IN FAVOR? AYE. THAT MOTION PASSES FOUR, ZERO. THANK YOU. CONGRATULATION. THANK YOU, DAN.
