AND SO AS WE MEDITATE ON THAT SENTIMENT, CAN WE JUST BOW OUR HEADS AND GO TO THE LORD IN PRAYER? HEAVENLY FATHER, WE JUST OPEN UP THIS SPACE, LORD, FOR PRODUCTIVITY.

LORD WE'RE PRAYING OVER THIS FRISCO COMMUNITY, YOU KNOW, THE INS AND OUTS AND EVEN THE ALL AROUNDS.

AND SO, LORD, WE'RE JUST ASKING THAT YOU GO AND DO EXCEEDINGLY AND ABUNDANTLY ABOVE ANYTHING THAT WE CAN ASK OR THINK.

THANK Y'ALL. ALL RIGHT.

OUR NEXT PROCLAMATION IS FOR HUNGER AND HOMELESSNESS AWARENESS.

[4. Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week]

HI. HOW ARE YOU? GOOD.

THANKS FOR HAVING US. HEY, MAYOR.

GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN. YOU TOO.

WE'LL HAVE TO. OKAY.

HEY THERE. HEY. HOW YOU DOING? ALL RIGHT. AND THE PROCLAMATION READS, WHEREAS IN 2001, THE INTERAGENCY COUNCIL ON HOMELESSNESS ISSUED A CALL FOR CITIES AND COUNTIES THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES TO DEVELOP PLANS TO END HOMELESSNESS.

AND SHORTLY THEREAFTER, THE COLLIN COUNTY HOMELESS COALITION WAS FORMED.

AND WHEREAS, EACH YEAR, THE WEEK BEFORE THANKSGIVING IS RECOGNIZED AS HUNGER AND HOMELESSNESS AWARENESS WEEK, A TIME TO ENCOURAGE THE PUBLIC TO ACT ON THE ISSUES OF HUNGER AND HOMELESSNESS.

AND WHEREAS, THE COALITION MEMBERS WILL HOST A VARIETY OF EVENTS IN SEVERAL LOCATIONS DURING THE WEEK THROUGHOUT COLLIN COUNTY TO RAISE AWARENESS AND OFFER RESIDENTS AN OPPORTUNITY TO SHARE THEIR COMPASSION WITH THOSE EXPERIENCING FOOD AND SHELTER INSECURITIES.

AND WHEREAS THE WEEK WILL HIGHLIGHT THE DIFFICULTY AND LONELINESS OF THOSE WITHOUT A HOME AND LIVING IN POVERTY AND ENCOURAGE THE PUBLIC TO BECOME INVOLVED IN EFFORTS TO END HOMELESSNESS AND HUNGER IN THE UNITED STATES, ESPECIALLY IN COLLIN COUNTY.

AND WHEREAS, COMMUNITIES MUST RECOGNIZE THAT HUNGER AND HOMELESSNESS ARE GROWING PROBLEMS AND BE CONSCIOUS OF THE SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES THESE PROBLEMS CAN HAVE ON THOSE WHO ARE SUFFERING AS WELL AS THEIR COMMUNITIES.

AND WHEREAS, COLLABORATION AND COOPERATION BETWEEN AGENCIES AT ALL LEVELS FAITH COMMUNITIES, SCHOOLS, BUSINESSES AND ORGANIZATIONS CAN HELP CHANGE THE OUTCOME OF INDIVIDUALS IN THESE DESPERATE CIRCUMSTANCES.

NOW, THEREFORE, I JEFF CHENEY, MAYOR OF THE CITY OF FRISCO, DO HEREBY PROCLAIM NOVEMBER 12TH THROUGH 20TH AS HUNGER AND HOMELESSNESS AWARENESS WEEK . LET'S GIVE A ROUND OF APPLAUSE [APPLAUSE].

YOU'RE GOING TO SAY A FEW WORDS AND INTRODUCE YOURSELF.

YES. I'M GILBERT MONTEZ.

I AM THE PRESIDENT OF CCA IN LEWISVILLE.

AND, GOING RIGHT ALONG WITH WHAT YOU ASKED THE YOUNG MEN.

AND WE'RE THANKFUL FOR THE CITY OF FRISCO AND FOR THE FUNDING THAT YOU PROVIDE AND FOR THIS WEEK THAT YOU PROCLAIM AND RAISING THE AWARENESS OF IT.

OKAY. THANK YOU. AND IF PEOPLE WANT TO LIVE, LEARN MORE, HAVE A GIVING HEART AND WANT TO BE INVOLVED, WHAT'S THE BEST WAY? OUR WEBSITE IS CCAHELPS.ORG.

AND RIGHT NOW WE'RE HELPING MANY, MANY.

THIS IS THANKSGIVING WEEK FOR US.

SO WE'RE DISTRIBUTING THANKSGIVING FOOD TO ABOUT 700 FAMILIES THIS WEEK.

AND I DO THINK THERE'S A MISPERCEPTION THAT COLLIN COUNTY AND FRISCO OR AFFLUENT COMMUNITIES THAT THERE ISN'T THIS PROBLEM, THERE ISN'T THIS NEED, BUT THEY'D PROBABLY BE SURPRISED TO LEARN THERE IS A GREAT NEED.

DEFINITELY SO. WE CALL THESE THE SHINY SUBURBS OF DALLAS, BUT WITHIN THAT SHINE, THERE'S A LOT OF NEED AND IT'S A GROWING NEED, AS THE PROCLAMATION STATES.

OKAY, LET'S GIVE THEM A ROUND OF APPLAUSE FOR THE WORK THEY DO.

[APPLAUSE] THANK YOU, SIR. WE'LL TAKE A QUICK PICTURE.

YOU WANT TO TRY TO ALL GET IN.

[00:15:12]

[5. Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month]

AND WHEREAS, PANCREATIC CANCER IS ONE OF THE LEADING CAUSES OF CANCER DEATH IN THE UNITED STATES, ACCOUNTING FOR APPROXIMATELY 3% OF ALL CANCERS AND 7% OF ALL CANCER DEATHS, ACCORDING TO THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY.

AND WHEREAS, AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY FURTHER STATES THAT THE AVERAGE RISK OF PANCREATIC CANCER OVER ONE'S LIFETIME IS ABOUT ONE IN 64.

AND WHILE THE RISK OF DEVELOPING PANCREATIC CANCER INCREASES AS A PERSON AGES, ADULTS OF ANY AGE CAN BE DIAGNOSED WITH THE DISEASE.

AND WHEREAS, WHILE PANCREATIC CANCER CAN BE SUCCESSFULLY TREATED IF IT IS CAUGHT, EARLY SYMPTOMS OFTEN ARE NOT DETECTED UNTIL THE DISEASE HAS PROGRESSED OR SPREAD TO OTHER AREAS OF THE BODY, UNDERSCORING THE IMPORTANCE OF CONTINUED RESEARCH AND AWARENESS TO IMPROVE EARLY DETECTION AND CANCER SCREENING PRACTICES.

AND WHEREAS, THE MONTH OF NOVEMBER IS DESIGNATED AS A TIME TO RECOGNIZE ALL OF THOSE WHO ARE BATTLING PANCREATIC CANCER, THOSE WHO HAVE LOST THEIR LIVES TO THIS DISEASE AND THEIR HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS AND LOVED ONES WHO ARE COMMITTED TO NOTHING LESS THAN A CURE.

THIS MONTH, CITIZENS ARE URGED TO JOIN PATIENTS, ADVOCATES AND ORGANIZATIONS IN RAISING AWARENESS OF PANCREATIC CANCER TO ENCOURAGE RESEARCH INTO EARLY DETECTION, CAUSES AND EFFECTIVE TREATMENT.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, JEFF CHENEY, MAYOR OF THE CITY OF FRISCO, DO HEREBY PROCLAIM NOVEMBER 2022 AS PANCREATIC CANCER AWARENESS MONTH.

THANK YOU ALL FOR RECOGNIZING, AND I KNOW EVERYONE IN THIS ROOM HAS PROBABLY BEEN TOUCHED BY CANCER AND MAY HAVE BEEN TOUCHED BY SOMEONE LOVED ONE WHO HAD PANCREATIC CANCER.

AND I THINK YOU'RE GOING TO HEAR SOME OF THOSE TESTIMONIES HERE TODAY.

MYSELF, WE ACTUALLY LOST MY MOTHER IN LAW PROBABLY 17 YEARS AGO TO PANCREATIC CANCER.

AND IT'S OFTEN DUBBED THE SILENT KILLER, BECAUSE I BELIEVE WE HEARD OF HER DIAGNOSIS, I BELIEVE IN JANUARY OF THAT YEAR, AND SHE WAS GONE BY JUNE OF THAT YEAR.

SO IT CERTAINLY TOUCHED OUR LIVES AND IT'S SOMETHING WE'RE VERY, VERY SUPPORTIVE OF.

AND I KNOW BRIAN HAS AS WELL.

FIRST, THANK YOU FOR DOING THIS TONIGHT.

MY NAME IS BRIAN LIVINGSTON.

I LOST MY FATHER 15 YEARS AGO TO PANCREATIC CANCER, AND 15 YEARS AGO I HELPED START UP THE DFW AFFILIATE OF THE PANCREATIC CANCER ACTION NETWORK, PANCAN .ORG, AND LEARNED A LOT ABOUT IT.

WE HAVE A RACE, A 5K DOWN IN AUSTIN, AUSTIN? DOWN IN DALLAS THAT NOW BRINGS IN ABOUT 4,000 PEOPLE A YEAR.

WE'VE RAISED SEVERAL MILLION DOLLARS.

BUT UNTIL MY DAD GOT IT, I HAD NEVER HEARD OF IT.

I KNEW I HAD A PANCREAS, BUT I NEVER REALLY GAVE IT MUCH THOUGHT.

SIMILAR TO WHAT THE MAYOR SAID, MY DAD LASTED 18 MONTHS AND I JUST MADE A PROMISE TO HIM THAT I WOULD MAKE SURE I SPREAD THE WORD AND RAISE MONEY SO THAT PEOPLE CAN BE AWARE OF IT. SO WHEN YOU HAVE SUDDEN CHANGES IN YOUR BLOOD SUGAR OR YOU HAVE LOWER BACK PAIN OR A METALLIC TASTE IN YOUR MOUTH, YOU KNOW, TO ASK AND THINK AND BE AWARE OF IT.

AND I'VE ALSO LEARNED THAT THE MORE THAT I TALK ABOUT IT, THE MORE THAT I LEARN THAT I'VE GOT FRIENDS AND COLLEAGUES THAT HAVE BEEN IMPACTED BY IT.

BUT THERE'S JUST WE DON'T TALK ABOUT IT AS MUCH.

SO I'VE INVITED A FEW PEOPLE THAT I KNOW THAT WERE HERE TONIGHT THAT HAD HAD SIMILAR EXPERIENCES AND JUST WENT TO THEM TO SHARE THEIR STORY AND REMEMBER THEIR LOVED ONES.

MY DAD WAS ROBERT LIVINGSTON, BY THE WAY.

THANK YOU, BRIAN. MY NAME IS BEN ROGERS.

THIS IS MY BROTHER JONATHAN ROGERS.

AND IN FEBRUARY OF 2005, OUR DAD THOUGHT HE HAD THE FLU.

HE WENT TO ONE OF THOSE DOC IN THE BOXES AND THOUGHT I'D JUST GET SOME MEDICINE AND TURNED OUT HE HAD PANCREATIC CANCER AND HE DIED 28 DAYS LATER.

AND IT IS A, JUST A VERY, IT'S A IT'S A VERY DEADLY CANCER.

AND I CAN REMEMBER TALKING TO THE DOCTORS AND THEIR VIBE WAS KIND OF LIKE, WHEW! GOOD LUCK WITH THAT. WE'RE GOING TO, WE GOT SOME PEOPLE WE CAN MAYBE SAVE DOWN THE HALL.

AND I KNOW THEY WEREN'T SAYING THAT, BUT YOU THINK BACK TO WHAT YOU'RE HEARING.

IT IS JUST SUCH A DEADLY CANCER.

WE'RE BEYOND HONORED THAT YOU GUYS ARE DOING SUCH GREAT THINGS TO RAISE AWARENESS AND TRY TO FIGHT THIS.

AND I PROBABLY DID BETTER TALKING TO JONATHAN WOOD, SO WE CAN JUST LEAVE IT AT THAT.

NO, I'M JUST KIDDING. HERE'S JOHN.

NO, I WOULD JUST ECHO THOSE SENTIMENTS AND THANK YOU TO THE CITY FOR FOR DOING THIS.

[00:20:04]

YOU MAY RECOGNIZE THAT GOLDEN VOICE FROM BEN, FROM THE BEN AND SKIN SHOW.

WHERE CAN YOU HEAR IT? NOW THEY DIDN'T RAISE UP IN APPLAUSE BECAUSE YOU'VE ASKED THEM TO BE QUIET, RIGHT? [LAUGHTER]. THAT'S THAT'S WHY THEY'RE NOT DOING THE WAVE.

WE ARE. WE ARE.

THANK YOU. WE ARE ON 11 TO 3 ON 97.1, THE FREAK.

OKAY. AND BILL HAS SOMETHING TO SAY, BUT HE IS NOT ON THE FREAK, SO.

NO, AS THE OTHERS HAVE A STORY, I HAVE A FRIEND OF WELL OVER 15 YEARS THAT CALLED ME IN APRIL OF THIS YEAR THAT SAID HE GOT DIAGNOSED WITH PANCREATIC CANCER IN MARCH. HE WAS GIVEN THREE MONTHS TO LIVE.

HE SURVIVED SIX MONTHS UP UNTIL JUST LAST WEEK.

SO AS THE OTHERS HAVE SAID, PLEASE GET CHECKED OUT.

DON'T LET ANYTHING GO.

ALIGHT. THANK YOU. LET'S GET A QUICK PICTURE HERE, IF YOU DON'T MIND.

CHEESE. ALL RIGHT.

LET'S THANK THEM FOR SHARING THEIR STORIES.

[APPLAUSE] THANK YOU.

ALL RIGHT.

AND OUR LAST BUT CERTAINLY NOT LEAST, PROCLAMATION IS THE 20TH ANNIVERSARY OF YOUR FRISCO ROUGHRIDERS.

[6. Frisco Roughriders - 20th Anniversary]

ALL RIGHT. IT READS. WHEREAS, THE FRISCO ROUGHRIDERS ARE THE DOUBLE-A AFFILIATE OF THE TEXAS RANGERS BASEBALL TEAM.

THEY BEGAN THEIR INAUGURAL SEASON ON APRIL 3RD, 2003 AND THE 2023 SEASON WILL MARK THEIR 20TH ANNIVERSARY IN FRISCO.

AND WHEREAS, THE CITY OF FRISCO'S PARTNERSHIP WITH THE FRISCO ROUGHRIDERS AND THE RIDERS FIELD VENUE WAS THE FIRST IN THE CITY'S COLLECTION OF PROFESSIONAL SPORTS VENUES DEVELOPED FROM A PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP.

SOON AFTER OPENING TO THE PUBLIC IN 2003, RIDERS FIELD WAS RECOGNIZED AS THE BEST NEW BALLPARK AWARD BY BASEBALLPARKS.COM.

AND WHEREAS, THROUGH THE YEARS, THE BALLPARK HAS RECEIVED MANY FACILITY UPGRADES, INCLUDING THE 174 FOOT LONG 68,000 GALLON CHOCTAW LAZY RIVER. THESE ENHANCEMENTS EARNED THE RIDERS AND THE CITY OF FRISCO BALLPARK PRESTIGIOUS BEST BALLPARK RENOVATION AWARD FOR TWO CONSECUTIVE YEARS.

AND WHEREAS, THE RIDERS VENUE HAS BEEN AN INCREDIBLE HOME FOR AN INCREDIBLE TEAM.

IN 2022, THE ROUGHRIDERS WON THE TEXAS LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP FOR THE SECOND TIME IN FRANCHISE HISTORY.

[APPLAUSE] THEY FIRST CLAIMED THE TITLE IN 2004.

THE RIDERS WERE LED BY A POTENT OFFENSIVE SEASON, WHICH SET A FRANCHISE RECORD FOR RUNS SCORED, AVERAGING 5.7 RUNS PER GAME.

AND WHEREAS, 187 FORMER ROUGHRIDERS HAVE GONE ON TO PLAY IN MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL, INCLUDING RANGERS STARS LIKE IAN KINSLER, ELVIS ANDRUS, C.J.

WILSON, JOEY GALLO AND MANY MORE.

AND IN 2022 ALONE, THE ROUGHRIDERS WERE HOME TO 13 OF THE TOP 30 PROSPECTS IN THE RANGERS ORGANIZATION, INCLUDING THE NUMBER TWO PROSPECT, RIGHT HANDED PITCHER JACK LEITER.

AND WHEREAS, THE ROUGH RIDERS ARE A PILLAR OF THE NORTH TEXAS COMMUNITY, WITH OVER 10 MILLION FANS MAKING MEMORIES AT RIDER'S FIELD, THEY HAVE PROVIDED OUTSTANDING FAMILY FRIENDLY ENTERTAINMENT AND INVALUABLE CONTRIBUTIONS AND SUPPORT THE FRISCO COMMUNITY.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, JEFF CHENEY, MAYOR OF THE CITY OF FRISCO, DO HEREBY PROCLAIM NOVEMBER 15, 2022, AS FRISCO ROUGHRIDERS 20TH ANNIVERSARY DAY.

LET'S HEAR IT FOR THEM. [APPLAUSE] CAN I SAY A FEW WORDS? I CAN HOLD THE TROPHY IF YOU NEED ME TO.

[LAUGHTER] IT'S VERY HEAVY.

SEE? TOLD YOU. NOT JOKING AROUND.

YEAH. WE'RE JUST SO THANKFUL TO BE A PART OF THIS COMMUNITY.

YEAH, IT'S BEEN 20 YEARS, AND WE WERE JUST TALKING UP THERE WITH THE GROUP AND THAT BALLPARK BEING BUILT, WAS US AND THE MALL AND REALLY NOTHING ELSE OUT THERE.

AND JUST TO SEE THE WAY FRISCO'S DEVELOPED AND THE WAY THAT WE'VE GROWN ALONG WITH THE COMMUNITY HAS JUST BEEN A LOT OF FUN.

SO THANK YOU FOR THE PAST 20 YEARS AND HERE'S FOR 20 MORE YEARS.

[00:25:42]

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU ALL.

LET'S HEAR IT FOR 'EM. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

[APPLAUSE] AND THEN WE HAVE.

OK. AND OUR LAST AWARD WAS PLANNING EXCELLENCE.

AND THIS IS A 2022 CERTIFICATE OF ACHIEVEMENT, THE RICHARD R.

LILLIE, FAICP PROGRAM FOR PLANNING EXCELLENCE PRESENTED TO THE CITY OF FRISCO.

RECOGNIZING A COMMITMENT TO A PROFESSIONAL PLANNING BY A CITY ADMINISTRATION, ELECTED AND APPOINTED OFFICIALS, AND EXEMPLARY PROFESSIONAL STANDARDS DEMONSTRATED BY THE PLANNING STAFF.

LET'S GIVE THEM A ROUND OF APPLAUSE FOR THEIR GREAT WORK.

JOHN, YOU WANT TO SHARE A FEW WORDS? WELL, JUST A FEW WORDS.

WE HAVE SEVERAL OF THESE UP IN THE OFFICE.

AND, YOU KNOW, WITH MAYOR AND COUNCIL SUPPORT, YOU KNOW, I'M NOT BRAGGING, BUT IT DOES FEEL GOOD.

BUT IT'S OKAY. GO AHEAD. AND A GOOD PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION AND, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF SUPPORT.

AND, YOU KNOW, TRACY AND OTHERS HAVE BEEN PART OF THE PROCESS.

AND SO THIS IS JUST A LEGACY.

AND I WANT TO INTRODUCE JONATHAN HUBBARD, AND HE'S OUR PLANNING AND ZONING MANAGER.

AND THEN STEPHANIE SCOTT-SIMS, SHE JUST JOINED US FROM MICHIGAN.

SHE JOINED US IN THE SUMMERTIME.

AND I WAS KIND OF CONCERNED THAT SHE MIGHT GO BACK BECAUSE, NOT BEING USED TO THE HOT WEATHER, BUT SHE'S STILL HERE.

SO WE APPRECIATE THAT.

SO, I'LL JUST SAY THANK YOU, MAYOR.

ALL RIGHT. AS THE SAY, IT'S NOT BRAGGING IF IT'S TRUE.

RIGHT. LET'S GET A QUICK PICTURE HERE.

ALL RIGHT. LET'S GIVE A ROUND OF APPLAUSE FOR THIS TEAM HERE [APPLAUSE] . WE'LL GO NOW INTO CITIZENS INPUT.

IS THERE ANYONE HERE TO SPEAK DURING CITIZENS INPUT? YES. WE HAVE ONE PERSON HERE TO SPEAK FOR CITIZENS INPUT.

[CITIZEN INPUT (to begin approximately at 7:30 p.m.)]

DONNA. THERE YOU ARE.

DONNA SCHMITTLER, 7037 WHITE ROCK COURT, FRISCO, TEXAS.

MAYOR AND COUNCIL, THANK YOU FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY.

WITH THE HOLIDAYS COMING AND THIS SEASON, I JUST LIKE TO TELL YOU ABOUT SOME THINGS THAT ARE HAPPENING, HOLIDAY HAPPENINGS AT THE HERITAGE.

ON THIS SATURDAY, SUNDAY, RATHER.

WE'RE VERY FORTUNATE. BETWEEN 1 AND 4, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE SOME ACTIVITIES IN THE BLACKSMITHS OVER THERE.

BUT MAYOR JEFF CHENEY WILL BE COMING TO PARDON FRISCO'S THANKSGIVING TURKEY.

SO WE'RE REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT AND ANYBODY WHO'D LIKE TO JOIN US.

AND THEN IN DECEMBER, WE'RE CHANGING IT UP A LITTLE BIT.

INSTEAD OF BEING THIRD SUNDAY, IT'S GOING TO BE THIRD SATURDAY IN DECEMBER, AND WE'RE GOING TO HAVE MR. AND MRS. CLAUS HERE AND THEY'LL BE, HIM SINGING AND CHRISTMAS CAROLING IN ADDITION TO OTHER CHILDREN'S ACTIVITIES AND ARTS AND CRAFTS.

SO WE HOPE THAT PEOPLE WILL COME.

WE'RE CHANGING UP A LITTLE BIT.

IT'S GOING TO BE FROM 11 TO 2 TO GET SOME OF THE YOUNG PEOPLE THERE, AND I'LL TAKE OFF MY PRESIDENT OF THE HERITAGE ASSOCIATION HAT AND I'LL PUT ON MY PRESIDENT OF THE FRIENDS OF THE LIBRARY HAT. WE'RE ALL VERY EXCITED ABOUT THE NEW LIBRARY, WHICH WE HOPE TO BE IN IN THE BEGINNING OF FEBRUARY.

[00:30:05]

BUT WE HAVE THIS YEAR'S CHRISTMAS ORNAMENT IS THE NEW FRISCO LIBRARY, AND WE JUST HAPPEN TO HAVE SOME OF THOSE.

I HAPPEN TO HAVE SOME, WHICH JEFF MAKES FUN OF ME BECAUSE I SELL THEM OUT OF MY CAR.

BUT WE ALSO HAVE THEM AT THE FRONT DESK OF THE LIBRARY AND AS A SPECIAL TREAT, YOU CAN GET THIS LIBRARY FOR $3.

SO IF ANYBODY'S INTERESTED, AND I KNOW MANY OF YOU HAVE PURCHASED THEM AND I THANK YOU IN ADVANCE.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU ALL AND YOUR FAMILIES.

THANK YOU, DONNA. DONNA, WE HOPE YOU'RE NOT SELLING THEM OUT OF THE TRUNK OF YOUR CAR.

OKAY. IS THERE ANYONE ELSE THAT WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK DURING CITIZENS INPUT? ALL RIGHT. THAT WILL MOVE US TO OUR REPORT SECTION, ITEM 8 IS THE DEVELOPMENT SERVICES MONTHLY REPORT.

[8. Development Services monthly activity update report for the month of October 2022.]

THAT IS NOT THE LOWEST.

WENT BACK TEN YEARS TO CHECK ON THAT BUT WE ROUGHLY HAVE ABOUT 36 THAT'S IN THE HOPPER THAT PEOPLE CAN COME AND PICK UP.

AND THERE'S ABOUT ANOTHER 37 UNDER REVIEW.

BUT WITH THAT, WE HAVE SEVERAL RESIDENTIAL SUBDIVISIONS UNDER CONSTRUCTION, LIKE ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF MAIN STREET, JUST EAST OF PRESTON.

AND THEN JUST TODAY, WE'RE GETTING A LOT OF REQUESTS UP IN THE BROOKSIDE AND THE FIELDS DEVELOPMENT REQUESTS.

AND THEN WE HAVE A FEW OTHER DEVELOPMENTS IN THE CITY.

OUR ELECTRONIC PLAN REVIEW, WHICH HAS BEEN A SEVERAL YEAR PROCESS FOR IMPLEMENTATION, WE'RE JUST DOWN TO THE LAST PHASE.

WE'RE HOPING TO HAVE IT COMPLETED BY NEXT MONTH.

IT'S WORKING WITH PUBLIC WORKS ON NETWORK NODES, BUT THAT, THAT PROJECT IS JUST ABOUT COMPLETED AND I'LL BE GLAD TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE.

WHAT QUESTIONS DO YOU HAVE? ALL RIGHT. THANKS, JOHN. WE MOVE US TO ITEM 9, THE HUMAN RESOURCES QUARTERLY REPORT.

[9. Human Resources Quarterly Report for July 2022 - September 2022.]

YOU HAVE MY QUARTERLY REPORT IN FRONT OF YOU THAT COVERS TURNOVER, EMPLOYMENT AND OUR INSURANCE CLAIMS AND WORKERS COMP.

ALSO HAVE SOME WELLNESS CENTER NUMBERS THERE FOR YOU IN THE REALLY TWO FULL MONTHS.

JUNE ONLY HAD TWO DAYS IN IT, IN ALL FAIRNESS, BUT WE SAW EIGHT INDIVIDUALS ON THOSE TWO DAYS IN JUNE, A TOTAL OF 13 CONTACTS. BUT WE'VE HAD 368 DIFFERENT CONTACTS THROUGH THROUGH THE CLINIC AND MEDICAL ASSISTANCE, INCLUDES VISITS IN PERSON AND EVISITS, COMMUNICATIONS, FILLING PRESCRIPTIONS, PORTAL CONTACTS.

BUT ACTUAL VISITS WE'VE HAD IN THOSE TWO FULL MONTHS, 174.

AND YOU CAN SEE THAT IT'S INCREASED OVER THAT SHORT PERIOD OF TIME.

SO WE ARE GETTING A LOT OF ACTIVITY, A LOT OF POSITIVE FEEDBACK.

WE'RE HOPING TO ROLL IN THE FIREFIGHTER PHYSICALS STARTING DECEMBER 1 AND THEN THE POLICE PHYSICALS STARTING JANUARY 1.

BUT I'LL BE GLAD TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE.

THANK YOU, LAUREN. I KNOW THE THE CLINIC BEING A NEW THING.

THAT'S SOMETHING WE'RE KEEPING AN EYE ON FOR THE SUCCESS FACTORS OF IT.

YOU KNOW, ONE OF THE BIG RATIONALES FOR THAT WAS EASY ACCESS FOR EMPLOYEES CONVENIENCE AND BE ABLE TO GET THEM BACK TO WORK QUICKER THAN THEY WOULD WITH THEIR NORMAL VISITS.

AND I SEE THE AVERAGE WAIT TIME SO FAR IS 6 MINUTES.

SIX MINUTES. THAT'S LIKE THE CHICK-FIL-A OF MEDICAL [LAUGHTER] I THINK.

SO THAT'S A GOOD START, CERTAINLY.

AND NOT TO REFERENCE ANYTHING SPECIFICALLY, BUT WE WERE MADE AWARE OF MAYBE A PRETTY SIGNIFICANT DIAGNOSIS THAT WAS UNCOVERED THAT COULD HAVE GONE A LONG WAY TO PROTECTING THE HEALTH OF WE'VE HAD SOME WE'VE HAD SOME GOOD SUCCESS STORIES.

AND IT'S YOU KNOW, IT'S UNFORTUNATE WHEN IT'S A MAJOR MEDICAL ISSUE, BUT IT DOES REALLY SPEAK TO THE ADVOCACY AND THE DEVOTION THAT THESE INDIVIDUALS HAVE TO OUR EMPLOYEES WHEN THEY'RE REALLY TAKING THE TIME TO DELVE IN AND NOT JUST PACIFYING THE SYMPTOMS AND GIVING SOME MEDICINE, BUT ACTUALLY LOOKING AT REALLY WHAT COULD BE CAUSING IT.

AND SO TO THAT POINT, YEAH, WE HAD A SITUATION AND THAT PERSON WAS ABLE TO GET THE APPROPRIATE CARE INTO A SPECIALIST FROM TIME OF FIRST VISIT TO SPECIALISTS AND A WEEK AND A HALF, WHICH IS SIGNIFICANT.

VERY GOOD. ALL RIGHT.

COUNCIL, WHAT OTHER QUESTIONS DO YOU HAVE? LAUREN, HOW DO THE THE UTILIZATION NUMBERS COMPARE TO THE PROJECTIONS? BECAUSE I KNOW YOU GUYS DID A LOT OF MODELING LEADING UP TO THIS.

HOW ARE WE TRACKING AGAINST HOW YOU'VE MODELED IT? IT'S STILL A LITTLE EARLY ON THAT.

I MEAN, YOU KNOW, WE'VE ONLY HAD 170, WHATEVER I SAID ON THE ON THE NUMBER OF VISITS.

AND WE HAVEN'T HAD TIME TO REALLY EVALUATE THE CLAIMS ANALYSIS YET.

SO HOPEFULLY BY THE END OF THE CALENDAR YEAR, WE'LL HAVE MORE SUBSTANTIAL DATA THAT WE CAN PUT UP AGAINST OUR CLAIMS ANALYSIS AND REALLY GET A GOOD PICTURE OF WHAT WE WERE

[00:35:10]

SO HOPEFULLY IN JANUARY I'LL HAVE SOME BETTER INFORMATION FOR YOU.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. YOU'RE WELCOME.

SO ANY OTHER QUESTIONS.

LAUREN, I DO JUST HAVE ONE OTHER SUGGESTION, NOT ON THE WELLNESS PIECE, BUT ON YOUR REPORT ON TURNOVER.

IS THERE AN OPPORTUNITY TO INCLUDE STAFFING INFORMATION ON THEIR NUMBER OF POSITIONS OPEN SPECIFICALLY? MAYBE NOT NECESSARILY AT THE GRANULAR LEVEL BY EVERY DEPARTMENT, BUT AGAIN, HAVE A KEEN EYE ON KNOWING HOW MANY PUBLIC SAFETY OPENINGS WE HAVE, POLICE AND FIRE, AND MAYBE HOW MANY WE FILLED DURING THAT TIME FRAME.

STAFFING IS THE ONLY PIECE THAT I NOTICED IS NOT PRESENT ON THE REPORT.

YEAH, WE'RE STILL WORKING ON SOME INTEGRATION BETWEEN TWO SEPARATE SYSTEMS. ONE OF THEM IS OUR HRS SYSTEM AND THE OTHER IS THE RECRUITMENT AND ONBOARDING.

SO MY DATA WASN'T REAL ACCURATE THIS QUARTER AND I APOLOGIZE, BUT THAT IS INFORMATION THAT I CAN DEFINITELY PROVIDE TO YOU.

AND WE ARE LOOKING AT PROVIDING MORE ACCURATE DATA ALONG THOSE HIRING AND RECRUITMENT LINES MOVING FORWARD AS WE'RE STARTING TO TIGHTEN UP OUR DATA.

BUT I'LL GET YOU THAT INFORMATION.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

LET'S MOVE US TO ITEM 10, OUR VISIT FRISCO MONTHLY REPORT.

[10. Visit Frisco October 2022 sales, services, and marketing reports.]

JUST WANTED TO THANK YOU AGAIN FOR TAKING PART IN OUR YEAR AND MEETING LAST WEEK.

A COUPLE OF THINGS I'D POINT OUT IN OUR REPORT.

OUR TPID BOARD OF DIRECTORS DID MEET AND ELECTED THEIR OFFICERS.

SO FERNANDEZ SANTANA FROM THE HYATT WILL BE THE CHAIR.

JEFF SMITH FROM OMNI PGA IS THE VICE CHAIR TREASURER AND THEN MONICA TRICHEL WITH OUR HILTON GARDEN WILL BE THE SECRETARY.

SO WE'VE HAD OUR FIRST MEETING AND WE ACTUALLY, THANKS TO DANIEL AND ALSO ANITA AND DERRICK IN FINANCE FOR HELPING US GET OUR RFP OUT FOR ACCOUNTING SERVICES.

SO HOPEFULLY WE'LL BE ABLE TO AWARD THAT IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS.

AND THEN THE OTHER THING I'D MENTIONED IS WE HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO GET BACK TO A TRADE SHOW THAT WE HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS, JUST FOR BUDGETARY REASONS.

BUT IMAX IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST TRADE SHOWS FOR MEETING PLANNERS IN THE US.

IT HAD OVER 12,000 PARTICIPANTS AND THE TEAM CAME BACK WITH TEN RFPS, WHICH IS A LOT, WHICH REPRESENTS ABOUT 9500 ROOM NIGHTS FOR POTENTIAL FUTURE BUSINESS. SO WE'RE EXCITED TO INTEGRATE SOME OF THOSE BIG SHOWS BACK INTO OUR BUDGET AND HOPEFULLY LAND AND CLOSE IN SOME GOOD BUSINESS FOR FRISCO.

I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE IN THE REST OF THE REPORT.

I JUST HAD A QUICK COMMENT.

FOR YOUR SOCIAL ENGAGEMENT THERE'S SUCH A HUGE PERCENTAGE INCREASE, SO I JUST WANTED TO GIVE A SHOUT OUT TO, I KNOW YOU'VE GOT A NEW SOCIAL MEDIA COORDINATOR, AND I'VE BEEN SEEING A LOT OF GREAT WORK OUT THERE.

SO. YEAH, SHE IS JUST AN OUT.

THANK YOU SO MUCH. SHE'S REALLY BEEN OUT AND YOU KNOW, SHE'S YOUNG AND JUST SO FAMILIAR WITH ALL THE TRENDS.

I DON'T KNOW IF YOU SAW THE VIDEO, THE LITTLE REEL THAT JOSH HAD PUT UP, BUT I WAS KIND OF TEASING HIM ABOUT IT.

YOU COULD SEE THE BATHROOM SINKS AND SHE GOES, NO, YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO.

I SAID, OKAY, I GUESS I DON'T GET THAT.

BUT SHE'S VERY CREATIVE AND I THINK THE REELS ARE REALLY HELPING JUST FROM AN ATTRACTION AND PEOPLE WANTING TO STAY AND WATCH IT.

SO. SEVERAL THINGS THAT I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW UNTIL I SAW THOSE VIDEOS.

I WAS LIKE, OH WAIT, I GOT TO GO CHECK THAT OUT.

SO IT'S VERY EFFECTIVE.

THANK YOU. THE ONE THING I DIDN'T SEE IN YOUR PRESENTATION, BUT YOU SHARED WITH US LAST WEEK AT THE DUAL MEETING THAT I WANTED TO SHARE WITH THE REST OF OUR CITIZENS IS THAT THE WORK THAT YOU GUYS DO ARE BRINGING AN AVERAGE OF ABOUT $1,500 DOLLARS IN TAX RELIEF BACK TO OUR AVERAGE CITIZEN, WHICH I THOUGHT WAS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE BECAUSE I THINK MY CITY TAXES ARE ONLY ABOUT $2,000.

SO YOU ARE CUTTING THAT NEARLY IN HALF BY THE WORK THAT YOU GUYS DO.

SO THAT'S AN INCREDIBLE TESTAMENT TO YOUR TEAM.

SO THANK YOU. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

AND QUITE HONESTLY, THANK YOU TO YOU GUYS FOR BUILDING IT SO WE CAN GO OUT AND MARKET IT AND BRING THE VISITORS HERE.

QUESTIONS. ALL RIGHT.

THANK YOU, MARLA. THANK YOU. THAT WILL MOVE US TO ITEM 11, OUR FIRE DEPARTMENT REPORT.

[11. Fire Department monthly report on incident responses and educational activities for the month of October 2022.]

I'M GOING TO START OFF BY BRAGGING AND GET THIS TO WORK.

WE'RE GOING TO BRAG ABOUT OUR FIRE PREVENTION DEPARTMENT TONIGHT.

DURING THE MONTH OF OCTOBER THEY RECEIVED TWO AWARDS AT THIS YEAR'S TEXAS FIRE MARSHAL'S ASSOCIATION CONFERENCE.

THE FIRST AWARD WAS FOR EXCELLENCE IN FIRE PREVENTION.

THEY RECEIVED THE GOLD LEVEL AWARD.

THIS IS AN AWARD THAT IS BASED ON PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT, OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY AND ADMINISTRATION FUNCTIONS.

THE NEATEST THING ABOUT IT, WE SCORED THE MOST POINTS THAT ANY TEXAS FIRE DEPARTMENT HAS EVER SCORED.

THEY GOT 198.5 OUT OF 200.

KELLY KISTNER WILL TELL YOU THAT MEANS WE HAVE ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENTS [LAUGHTER].

THE SECOND AWARD WAS AN AWARD GIVEN TO US FOR THE SPRINKLER SAVES IN THE CITY OF FRISCO.

[00:40:07]

THESE TEN SPRINKLER SAVES COVERED APPROXIMATELY $260 MILLION WORTH OF PROPERTY.

THAT AWARD WAS GIVEN TO US BY THE TEXAS SPRINKLER COALITION AND NATIONAL FIRE SPRINKLER ASSOCIATION.

AND ALSO THIRD, BUT NOT LEAST, OUR FIRE MARSHAL, KELLY KISTNER HAS BEEN VOTED IN AS THE SECOND VICE PRESIDENT OF THE TEXAS FIRE MARSHAL'S ASSOCIATION.

THAT WILL BE A CONTINUOUS POSITION FOR THE NEXT SIX YEARS.

SECOND, WE HAD TEXAS TASK FORCE 1 AND TEXAS TASK FORCE 2 JOINT TRAINING AT OUR PUBLIC SAFETY TRAINING CENTER DURING THE MONTH OF OCTOBER.

FOR THOSE PEOPLE THAT DON'T KNOW, TEXAS TASK FORCE 1 AND TEXAS TASK FORCE 2 ARE MADE UP OF PRIMARILY FIREMEN THROUGHOUT ACROSS TEXAS.

AND WE HAD THEM IN TOWN FOR ABOUT FOUR DAYS, AND IT WAS THEIR TECHNICAL RESCUE GROUPS WORKING TOGETHER, DOING SOME TRENCH RESCUE BUILDING COLLAPSE EXERCISES. AND NOT ONLY DID WE HAVE MEMBERS ON THOSE TWO TEAMS, BUT MEMBERS OF OUR FIRE DEPARTMENT GOT TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS TRAINING WHILE THEY WERE HERE.

AND THIRD, ON DECEMBER THE SIXTH, FROM 6 TO 8 AT CENTRAL FIRE STATION, WE WILL HAVE WFAA SANTA'S HELPERS.

SO BRING YOUR PRESENTS BY AND WE'LL MAKE SURE THAT THOSE GET TAKEN TO PEOPLE THAT NEED THEM.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ON OUR REPORT, I'D BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO ANSWER THEM.

I DON'T LIKE HEIGHTS OR CONFINED SPACES, SO I WOULD NOT BE ELIGIBLE FOR EITHER ONE OF THOSE TRAININGS.

BUT I ALSO DID WANT TO THANK YOU.

WE HAD OUR MAYOR'S YOUTH COUNCIL OUT TO OUR TRAINING FACILITY LAST WEEK, AND THEY REALLY ENJOYED YOUR HOSPITALITY AND SHOWING THEM AROUND AND WATCHING YOU BURN THINGS.

SO THANKS FOR HOSTING THEM THERE.

COUNCI, WHAT OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS DO YOU HAVE? I HAVE A COMMENT THAT I JUST WANT TO THANK THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

ON THURSDAY NIGHT, MY DAUGHTER WENT TO LEGACY ER.

AND IT QUICKLY BECAME EVIDENT SHE WOULD NEED MORE ASSISTANCE THAN THAT.

THEY CALLED 911 AND WE HAD FIREFIGHTER, PARAMEDIC SAM ROBERTSON AND TRAVIS BACA COME OUT.

THEY WERE VERY GOOD WITH MY WIFE, WHO WAS HAVING A MILD PANIC ATTACK, AND THEY WERE CLEARLY IN CHARGE AND KNEW WHAT THEY WERE DOING.

IT WAS VERY RELAXING TO HAVE THEM THERE, AND THEY TRANSPORTED HER TO A PLACE WHERE SHE COULD GET BETTER CARE.

AND I ALSO JUST WANT TO TALK TO THE CITIZENS AND COUNCIL THAT MAY NOT BE AWARE.

THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME I'VE SEEN THE BACK OF AN AMBULANCE IN A WHILE, THANK GOODNESS.

HOPEFULLY THE LAST FOR A WHILE TOO.

BUT I REMEMBER WHEN MY DAD USED TO GO IN AND THEY'D JUST SLAM YOU INTO IT AND YOU'RE LIKE FLYING AND TO GET IN THERE.

AND NOW IT'S THE NICE PULLEY SYSTEM AND THE TRACK AND IT'S SUCH A NICE PIECE OF EQUIPMENT THAT WE HAVE FOR OUR CITIZENS.

SO, I JUST WANTED TO THANK THOSE TWO INDIVIDUALLY, BUT EVERYBODY THAT MADE IT POSSIBLE.

SO WHEN WE WHEN THEY CALLED, THEY WERE THERE IN NO TIME AT ALL.

AND I JUST WANT TO SEND MY THANKS.

AND SHE'S DOING MUCH BETTER, BY THE WAY.

OKAY. ANYTHING ELSE? ALL RIGHT. GOING TO MOVE US TO ITEM 12, OUR POLICE DEPARTMENT REPORT.

[12. Police Department's crime statistics and response times for the month of October 2022.]

I WANTED TO START TONIGHT BY TALKING ABOUT THE SUBSTANCE FENTANYL, WHICH I'M SURE YOU'VE HEARD OF.

AND I WANT TO JUST KIND OF GENERATE SOME PUBLIC AWARENESS RELATED TO THIS.

IN 2021, THE DEA REPORTS THAT THERE WERE OVER 108,000 OVERDOSE DEATHS IN THE UNITED STATES, WITH ABOUT 70% OF THOSE AS A RESULT OF FENTANYL.

AND SO, JUST TO TELL EVERYBODY WHAT IT IS, IT'S A SYNTHETIC OPIOID THAT'S 100 TIMES STRONGER THAN MORPHINE.

AND THAT PICTURE THERE GIVES YOU KIND OF A PERSPECTIVE ON HOW DEADLY IT IS AND HOW LITTLE FENTANYL NEEDS TO BE PRESENT TO RESULT IN A FATALITY.

SOME OF THE TRENDS THAT WE'RE SEEING RELATED TO FENTANYL AS IT'S POSSESSED BY THAT AGE GROUP FROM 18 TO 32 YEARS OF AGE.

AND WE'RE FINDING THIS MOSTLY ON TRAFFIC STOPS IS, YOU KNOW, WE MIGHT TAKE SOMEBODY INTO CUSTODY FOR SOME OTHER REASON, AND THEN WE FIND IT PRESENT IN THE CAR.

AND THEN, YOU KNOW, THE OTHER THING IS IT'S MOSTLY FOUND IN A PILL FORM.

AND PEOPLE ARE LED TO FENTANYL BECAUSE THEY'RE DESENSITIZED TO OXYCODONE.

THEY ABUSE IT AND THEY BECOME DESENSITIZED TO IT.

SO MOST PEOPLE, FROM FROM WHAT I'M HEARING, ARE USING IT BY CRUSHING IT AND SNORTING IT.

PEOPLE ALSO JUST INGEST THE PILL OR THEY CAN THEY CAN SMOKE IT.

THE THING THAT MAKES FENTANYL SO CONCERNING IS IT LOOKS LIKE SOMETHING ELSE.

[00:45:02]

SO IT LOOKS LIKE ONE THING, BUT IT'S MORE THAN WHAT SOMEONE EXPECTS.

SO, YOU KNOW, THE DEA HAS LAUNCHED A CAMPAIGN THAT'S BEEN GOING ON, ONE PILL CAN KILL.

AND I THINK THAT'S THE BEST WAY TO DESCRIBE IT IS, YOU KNOW, WHETHER SOMEONE HAS BEEN ABUSING OXYCODONE FOREVER, THEY CAN GET ONE PARTICULAR PILL LACED WITH FENTANYL AND THEY WILL DIE FROM IT.

SADLY, THIS YEAR IN FRISCO, WE'VE HAD THREE OVERDOSE DEATHS THAT WE CAN CONFIRM ARE A RESULT OF FENTANYL, OVERDOSE.

SO WHAT TO LOOK FOR? THOSE ARE SOME THINGS THAT ARE THINGS TO LOOK FOR FOR REALLY ANY OVERDOSE, BUT SPECIFICALLY FENTANYL.

AND THEN WHAT TO DO? CERTAINLY CALL 911.

I WILL SHARE WITH YOU THAT AS WE SAW OPIOID OVERDOSES ON THE RISE ALL THE WAY BACK IN 2018, THANKS TO OUR FRIENDS AT THE FIRE DEPARTMENT, WE WERE ABLE TO SECURE AND TRAIN ALL OF OUR OFFICERS TO CARRY NARCAN, WHICH IS A MIRACLE DRUG.

I'LL SHARE WITH YOU. WE HAVE TEN INSTANCES THIS YEAR WHERE OFFICERS HAVE ADMINISTERED NARCAN FOR OVERDOSE VICTIMS. IN ONE OF THOSE CASES, THEY ACTUALLY THEY ADMINISTERED MULTIPLE DOSES OF NARCAN TO SAVE SOMEONE.

SO THANKS TO THE PARTNERSHIP THAT WE HAVE WITH THE FIRE DEPARTMENT, THE TRAINING AND ADDRESSING THIS BACK IN 2018, WE HAVE OFFICERS POSITIONED TO RESPOND WITH WITH NARCAN.

SO IT'S REALLY JUST IMPORTANT FOR REALLY THE TAKEAWAYS OR FOR THE YOUNG PEOPLE IN OUR COMMUNITY.

JUST BE AWARE THAT IT'S HERE.

FIRST OF ALL, TO THE PARENTS IN OUR COMMUNITY, TALK TO YOUR KIDS ABOUT THE DEADLY CONSEQUENCES THAT COMES WITH THIS SUBSTANCE.

AND THEN, YOU KNOW, REALLY TO EVERYBODY IN THE COMMUNITY, IF YOU KNOW SOMEBODY THAT'S STRUGGLING WITH SUBSTANCE ABUSE, BE PERSISTENT IN TRYING TO GET THEM TO HELP BECAUSE THIS PARTICULAR DRUG IS VERY UNFORGIVING AND VERY DEADLY.

SO BEYOND THAT, YOU HAVE OUR OCTOBER REPORT.

I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.

THANK YOU, CHIEF. AND CHIEF, I KNOW YOU JUST PUT OUT A RELEASE HERE NOT TOO LONG AGO THIS EVENING ABOUT A COUPLE INSTANCES OF PURSE SNATCHING THAT WE'VE HAD HERE IN THE COMMUNITY.

AND MY WIFE HAD SENT THAT TO ME EARLIER IN DAY.

AND I TOLD HER, IF THAT HAPPENS TO YOU, THERE IS NOTHING IN THAT PURSE MORE VALUABLE THAN YOU.

LET THEM HAVE IT. BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT KIND OF ADVICE YOU GIVE.

YEAH, JUST I WI WOULD TELL PEOPLE JUST TO STAY VIGILANT OF THEIR SURROUNDINGS, ESPECIALLY A LOT OF PEOPLE OUT DOING SHOPPING DURING THE HOLIDAY SEASON.

YOU KNOW, JUST BE VIGILANT OF YOUR SURROUNDINGS AND JUST STAY AWARE.

I KNOW YOU CAN WALK THROUGH MOST GROCERY STORES AND YOU JUST SEE PURSES LEFT IN SHOPPING CARTS.

AND THEY'RE JUST, THEY'RE PRIME TARGETS TO BE STOLEN.

BUT REALLY JUST PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR SURROUNDINGS, U KNOW A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE DISTRACTED WITH THEIR PHONES AND THAT THAT CAN MAKE YOU VULNERABLE SO.

JUST BE VERY VIGILANT. AND CERTAINLY IF YOU SEE SOMETHING THAT LOOKS SUSPICIOUS, ABSOLUTELY CALL US.

WE WOULD RATHER RESPOND AND FIND OUT THAT IT'S NOTHING THAN NEVER GET A PHONE CALL.

COUNCIL, WHAT OTHER QUESTIONS DO YOU HAVE? WOULD THERE BE ENOUGH TIME IF AN OFFICER GOT EXPOSED TO FENTANYL IN THE POWDER FORM OR SOMETHING FOR THEM TO USE NARCAN ON THEMSELVES? YES. THERE'S BEEN SOME OF THOSE CASES THAT HAVE OCCURRED IN OTHER PARTS OF THE COUNTRY.

BUT REALLY, THAT WOULD DEPEND ON THE LEVEL OF EXPOSURE, BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, OBVIOUSLY, IF THEY TOUCH OR ABSORB A LARGE AMOUNT INTO THEIR SKIN, IT CAN BE BEYOND WHAT ONE DOSE OF NARCAN COULD SAVE THEM FROM.

SO, YOU KNOW, WE TRY AND BE DILIGENT ABOUT WEARING GLOVES AND PPE TO PROTECT OURSELVES.

BUT THAT'S ANOTHER REASON WE CARRY NARCAN IS TO SAVE EACH OTHER IF NEED BE.

CHIEF, ARE THE SCHOOLS EQUIPPED WITH NARCAN OR IS IT JUST THE POLICE DEPARTMENT THAT HAS TO BE ABLE TO UTILIZE THAT? I'M PRETTY SURE THAT THE SCHOOL NURSES ALL HAVE IT.

AND IN OUR MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOLS, OF COURSE, WE HAVE OFFICERS THAT HAVE NARCAN AS WELL.

THANK YOU, CHIEF. THANK YOU.

THAT WILL TAKE US TO ITEM 13, WHICH IS OUR COUNCIL SUBCOMMITTEE REPORTS.

[13. Council Subcommittee reports for current activities of the Legislative Committee, Governance Committee, Budget and Audit Committee, Frisco Square Management District, Dallas Regional Mobility Commission, North Central Texas Emergency Preparedness Committee, Frisco Veterans Advisory Committee, North Texas Commission, and Regional Transportation Council.]

WE HAD A GREAT VETERANS DAY.

I STARTED WITH COFFEE WITH THE MAYOR AT THE GROVE.

THANK YOU, MAYOR, FOR HOSTING THAT.

THAT WAS A LOT OF FUN.

A GREAT TURNOUT.

WE TOOK EVERYONE OVER TO THE VETERANS MEMORIAL COMMONS PARK AFTERWARDS, AND WERE HOSTED BY AMERICAN LEGION POST 178, THE PETER J.

[00:50:03]

HE HAD VIETNAM VETERAN BOOTS BAGBY AS THE GUEST SPEAKER.

HE WAS AMAZING.

I THINK EVERYONE ENJOYED IT DESPITE THE COLD, WET WEATHER.

WE HAD A GOOD TURNOUT.

THE COMMUNITY PARADE WAS SATURDAY.

THAT WAS A LOT OF FUN.

A LOT OF VETERANS, OUR HIGH SCHOOLS BANDS.

JUST A GREAT COMMUNITY OUTPOURING OF SUPPORT FOR FRISCO.

AND RETIRED MARINE CORPS.

LIEUTENANT COLONEL DICK PEASLEY IS OUR FRISCO DISTINGUISHED VETERAN, AND HE WAS FEATURED IN THE PARADE.

SO IT WAS GREAT TO SEE HIM OUT THERE.

MAYOR, YOU ARE HOSTING OUR HOLIDAY SOCIAL ON DECEMBER 8 AT EVENTI.

THAT'S AT 6 P.M.

AND EVERYONE IS INVITED TO THAT.

THAT IS OPEN TO, OBVIOUSLY TO OUR VETERANS, THEIR FAMILIES, BUT ALL OF OUR CITIZENS AS WELL.

AND FINALLY, THE VFW FUNDRAISER IS ON NOVEMBER 18TH FROM 6 TO 10PM AT CHICK-FIL-A.

SO WE MAKE THIS REALLY EASY.

IT'S AT THE CHICK-FIL-A AT DNT IN LEBANON.

JUST SAY YOU WANT TO DONATE TO THE VFT, VFW, AND A PORTION OF YOUR PROCEEDS ARE DONATED TO THEM.

SO THAT'S NOVEMBER 18, FROM 6 TO 10 AT CHICK-FIL-A.

ALL RIGHT. WELL, THANK YOU, JOHN, AND THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR WORK WITH ALL THE VETERANS EVENTS THIS WEEKEND AND MANY SPEECHES GIVEN.

AND I UNDERSTAND I'VE BEEN OFFICIALLY WALLY PIPPED FOR MY ROLE AS THE EMCEE AT THE COMMUNITY PARADE AS YOU WERE HAVING TOO MUCH FUN.

BUT YEAH, WE HAD CBD 11 J.D.

MILES THERE. HE WAS DOING A PRETTY GOOD JOB, BUT I TOOK IT TO A WHOLE 'NOTHER LEVEL AND THEY SAID THAT YOU WERE YOU WERE FIRED.

SO WE HAD A REALLY GOOD TIME WITH THAT.

AND I THINK WE HAD AS MANY PEOPLE WATCHING THE PARADE AS WE HAD IN THE PARADE.

BUT IT WAS JUST REALLY FUN.

SO THANKS TO EVERYBODY WHO WAS IN IT AND WHO CAME OUT TO TO CHEER FOR IT.

THANK YOU, JOHN. COUNCIL, ANY OTHER UPDATES THAT WE HAVE? I HAVE AN UPDATE FROM THE EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS.

MYSELF AND ONE OF OUR DEPUTY CHIEFS GOT TO PARTICIPATE IN AN EXECUTIVE TRAINING ON TRAFFIC INCIDENT MANAGEMENT.

AND WHILE THAT SOUNDS SO MUCH FUN, IT ACTUALLY WAS INCREDIBLY INTERESTING.

A LOT OF THE FOCUS WAS HOW DO YOU NOT ONLY DO WE KEEP OUR CITIZENS SAFE, BUT HOW DO WE KEEP OUR STAFF SAFE WHEN IT COMES TO ACCIDENTS AND CLEARING THEM OUT MORE PRODUCTIVELY? AND THEY ALSO MENTIONED THAT THEY HAD A GRANT OF $500 MILLION FOR THE NORTH TEXAS REGION THAT WE'LL BE LOOKING AT TO SEE HOW WE COULD POTENTIALLY APPLY FOR GRANT MONEY TO HELP SUPPORT OUR COMMUNITY EVEN MORE.

ALL RIGHT.

THAT WILL MOVE US TO OUR CONSENT AGENDA.

[43. Consider and act upon approval of the Master Development Agreement, Facility Lease Agreement, Memorandum of Lease, and Performance Agreement by and between the City of Frisco, Frisco Community Development Corporation, Frisco Economic Development Corporation, and Texas RT Holdings, LLC. (CMO/BB)]

GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. MY NAME IS BEN BREZINA.

I'M THE ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER HERE.

BEFORE YOU TONIGHT IS THIS MASTER DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT LEASE AGREEMENT WITH RT HOLDINGS.

THE REASON FOR THIS AGREEMENT TONIGHT IS REALLY TO CHECK SEVERAL BOXES FROM THE CITY COUNCIL'S TOP TEN PRIORITIES.

DOWNTOWN ENTERTAINMENT DESTINATIONS, TOURISM, REINVESTMENT AND WORLD CUP.

THIS IS A SLIDE OF THE CURRENTLY CITY OWNED FACILITIES AND PROPERTY IN DOWNTOWN.

ALL THE RED AND SOME OF THE PURPLE UP THERE FOR THE PARK.

COUNCIL HAS RECENTLY APPROVED AND MOVE FORWARD WITH A PRETTY SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENT IN DOWNTOWN OVER $44 MILLION FOR MAIN STREET FOURTH STREET PLAZA.

COUNCIL HAS ALSO PURCHASED TWO LOTS DIRECTLY ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF THE SILO TRACKS.

THOSE TWO MIDDLE BUILDINGS AND THE CDC IS ACTUALLY PLANNING TO PAVE THEIR LOT.

THAT IS WHERE THE RAILYARD IS TODAY.

SO PRETTY SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENT IN DOWNTOWN.

OUR PARTNERSHIP HERE TODAY IS WITH ROLLERTOWN BEER WORKS AND THE PARTNERS INCLUDE BEN ROGERS AND HIS BROTHER, WHO YOU MET EARLIER, SKIN WADE.

[00:55:07]

THEY ARE CURRENTLY PRODUCING 1250 BARRELS ANNUALLY.

THEY ARE SOLD AT OVER 150 LOCATIONS, AS INDICATED ON THIS MAP ACROSS THE REGION.

AND THEIR GOAL IN FRISCO IS TO HAVE OVER 60,000 BARRELS PRODUCED.

HERE ARE SOME OF THE LOCATIONS THAT THEY'RE CURRENTLY SELLING AND DISTRIBUTING TOWARDS, DR.

PEPPER BALLPARK, WHO WE RECOGNIZE EARLIER.

GLOBE LIFE FIELD.

AMERICAN AIRLINES.

I'M SORRY. UNTAPPED AND PRETTY HIGH RANKING.

3.95 OUT OF FOUR, I GUESS, I HOPE, COMPARED TO OTHER BREWERIES IN THE AREA.

SO A PLUG FOR THEM.

THIS PROJECT IS MARKED TO BE LOCATED RIGHT HERE ON THE SILO TRACT RIGHT ON MAIN STREET, A MARQUEE PIECE OF PROPERTY THAT THE CITY ACQUIRED OVER 20 YEARS AGO AND HAS BEEN WAITING FOR THE RIGHT DEVELOPMENT.

THE CITY AND THE CDC AND THE EDC ARE GOING TO PARTNER WITH ROLLERTOWN AND WE'RE GOING TO ENDEAVOR TO BUILD AND LEASE TO ROLLERTOWN, A DESTINATION ENTERTAINMENT FACILITY.

THIS IS A DRAFT RENDERING HERE THAT SHOWS APPROXIMATELY 24,000 SQUARE FOOT FACILITY THAT INCLUDES 9500 SQUARE FEET OF PRODUCTION AND CANNING, WHICH IS THE YELLOW 1100 SQUARE FEET OF RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT, SOME FOOD SERVICE, APPROXIMATELY 11,000 SQUARE FEET FOR A TAPROOM BEER GARDEN AND A ROOFTOP EXPERIENCE, AND OVER 24,000 SQUARE FEET OF OPEN SPACE TO BE PROGRAMED WITH THE STAGE AND EVENT LAWN AND REALLY MAKE THIS A GREAT DESTINATION DOWNTOWN.

I MENTIONED AT THE BEGINNING WORLD CUP 2026.

AT SOME POINT WE'LL BE WATCHING, HAVING A WORLD CUP WATCH PARTY HERE IN 2026.

SO OUR GOAL IS TO DEVELOP A MUTUALLY BENEFICIAL WIN WIN PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN FRISCO AND ROLLERTOWN TO NEGOTIATE AN AGREEMENT THAT PAYS THE CDC BACK WHILE DRAWING HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE TO THE DOWNTOWN AREA AND TO CAPTURE THE INCREDIBLE SOCIAL MEDIA VALUE ROLE TOWN PARTNERS HAVE CULTIVATED.

THIS IS A SLIDE FROM OUR CVB REPORT FROM A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO SHOWS WHERE OUR RESIDENTS ARE GOING, AND I HIGHLIGHTED THERE THREE LOCAL BREWERIES THAT ARE NOT IN FRISCO.

SO WE WOULD LIKE TO KEEP OUR RESIDENTS HERE WITH THIS PROJECT.

SOME OF THE DEAL TERM HIGHLIGHTS 23 YEAR TERM.

THE REASON IT'S 23 YEARS AND NOT 20 YEARS IS BECAUSE THE FIRST THREE YEARS ARE LOWER PAYMENTS ON THE AMORTIZED LEASE.

SO, FOR EXAMPLE, YEAR ONE, THEY'RE GOING TO PAY $100,000.

YEAR TWO IS $200,000, IN YEAR THREE IS $400,000.

AND THEY'LL MAKE UP THE DIFFERENCE ON THE LAST 12 YEARS OF THE LEASE.

THE CDC IS GOING TO VOTE ON THURSDAY AND THE EDC IS GOING TO VOTE TOMORROW FOR THEIR PORTIONS.

BUT THE TERMS HAVE THE CDC TO FUND UP TO $10 MILLION IN CONSTRUCTIO, THE EDC TO GRANT $2 MILLION FOR CONSTRUCTION.

THE COMPANY IS RESPONSIBLE FOR $2 MILLION WORTH OF EQUIPMENT FOR THEIR CANNING AND PRODUCTION AND ALSO RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY COST OVERRUNS ABOVE $12 MILLION.

THE COMPANY HAS ESTABLISHED A $1 MILLION IRREVOCABLE LETTER OF CREDIT TO BACKSTOP THE COMMITMENTS, AND THE COMPANY IS AGREEING TO REPAY THE CDC THE $10 MILLION AT 4% INTEREST AMORTIZED OVER 23 YEARS.

THE COMPANY IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE MAINTENANCE AND INSURANCE AND TAXES ON THE PROPERTY AND WILL CONTRIBUTE MONEY TOWARDS FACILITY RESERVE FUND TO HELP ENSURE ADEQUATE FUNDING FOR THE MAINTENANCE OF THE FACILITY.

THE COMPANY IS TO PROMOTE THE FACILITY IN THE CITY IN A POSITIVE MANNER NO LESS THAN TWICE A MONTH THROUGH THEIR RADIO, TELEVISION, INTERNET, WEBSITE AND OTHER SOCIAL MEDIA.

THEY SHALL CREATE AND PROMOTE AT LEAST 12 LIVE EVENTS FROM FRISCO ANNUALLY IN THE CITY.

THE CDC, THE EDC, SHALL HAVE UP TO 15 DAYS PER YEAR USE OF THE FACILITY.

I'M GOING TO STOP RIGHT THERE AND I'D LIKE TO, BEFORE WE GET TO QUESTIONS, INTRODUCE RAY AGAIN.

THEY WERE UP HERE EARLIER, BUT BEN ROGERS AND JONATHAN ROGERS, HAVE THEM SAY A COUPLE OF WORDS AND HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.

SO WITHOUT FURTHER ADO.

HI, I'M BEN ROGERS, MY BROTHER JONATHAN.

IT IS JUST AN AMAZING HONOR TO EVEN HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO PARTNER WITH THE GREAT CITY OF FRISCO.

AND OUR GOAL IS TO BUILD A LARGE, FAMILY FRIENDLY ENTERTAINMENT FACILITY THAT WOULD DRIVE A TON OF TRAFFIC TO FRISCO.

YEAH, IT'S FOR US.

YOU KNOW, WE WANT TO BRING A WORLD CLASS ENTERTAINMENT DESTINATION INTO THE HEART OF WHAT IS A WORLD CLASS CITY.

AND WE WANT TO DO THAT WHILE BEING AN INCREDIBLE PARTNER AND TEAMMATE TO THE CITY, TO ITS RESIDENTS AND ALL OF THE OTHER BUSINESSES WITHIN FRISCO.

[01:00:01]

IT'S VERY FAMILY FRIENDLY.

THERE'S DOGS, THERE'S KIDS, THERE'S PEOPLE HANGING OUT, HAVING A VERY GOOD TIME.

AND WE KNOW PEOPLE LEAVE FRISCO BECAUSE OF THEY WANT TO GO TO A BREWERY AND THEY WANT LIVE MUSIC.

AND WE'RE GOING TO HAVE BOTH OF THOSE IN ABUNDANCE.

WELL, THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE.

AND THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING FRISCO FOR YOUR GROWTH AND EXPANSION.

I KNOW YOU WERE COURTED BY MANY CITIES ACROSS THE METROPLEX.

WE ALWAYS KNEW IN OUR HEARTS THAT FRISCO WOULD WIN OUT.

BUT CERTAINLY YOU HAD SOMETHING THAT A LOT OF CITIES WERE LOOKING FOR.

YOU KNOW, THIS IS A SPECIAL PIECE OF PROPERTY FOR FRISCO.

YOU KNOW, IT'S A HISTORIC PIECE OF PROPERTY FOR FRISCO WITH THE SILO TRACKS.

AND IT'S, REALLY KIND OF LEADS INTO THIS CONCEPT OF WHAT WE'VE CALLED FRISCO JUNCTION, WHICH IS LAND THAT THE CITY OWNS FROM THE SILO TRACT ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE HERITAGE MUSEUM WHERE BABE'S IS LOCATED.

AND THE DREAM AND THE VISION FOR FRISCO JUNCTION, YOU KNOW, HAS ALWAYS BEEN TO BE A WAY TO CONNECT THE NEW DOWNTOWN WHERE WE'RE SITTING HERE TONIGHT, AND THE OLD HISTORIC RAIL DISTRICT.

AND TO DO THAT, WE'VE ALWAYS FELT LIKE THAT FRISCO JUNCTION NEEDED TO BE A DESTINATION, THAT IT NEEDED TO FEEL LIKE IT WAS THE MIDDLE OF SOMETHING, YOU KNOW, THAT SOMEONE WOULD GO DOWN THERE AND JUST DECIDE, I WANT TO HAVE AN EVENING OUT IN DOWNTOWN.

WE'RE GOING TO PARK OUR CAR AT THE JUNCTION, AND ONE NIGHT WE MAY GO RIGHT INTO THE HISTORIC DISTRICT.

ONE NIGHT WE MAY GO LEFT INTO THE NEW FRISCO SQUARE.

AND THE CONCEPT OF WHAT CAN GO THERE HAS ALWAYS EVADED US, QUITE FRANKLY.

WHAT IS GOING TO CREATE THAT ENERGY? WHAT'S GOING TO CREATE THAT SYNERGY? WHAT DO WE PUT ON THE SILO TRACK TO REALLY BOOKEND THAT? WE'VE LOOKED AT PITCHES FOR OFFICE BUILDINGS, WE'VE LOOKED AT PARK CONCEPTS, YOU NAME IT.

NOTHING THAT WAS EXCITING BECAUSE WE WANTED THE SILOS TO BE VERY INTENTIONAL AS PART OF THE PROJECT.

WE DIDN'T WANT A PROJECT THAT JUST HAPPENED TO BE ON A PIECE OF PROPERTY AND OH, BY THE WAY, THERE ARE ALSO SILOS THERE.

WE WANT IT TO BE A BACKDROP, A STAGE.

AND SO THESE CONCEPTS ALWAYS KEPT COMING BACK TO THE TWO TOP THINGS THAT VISIT FRISCO TOLD US IN ALL THEIR STUDIES IS THE THINGS THAT PEOPLE ARE LEAVING FRISCO BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT PROVIDING THEM.

AND YOU MENTIONED IT, WHICH IS, YOU KNOW, PEOPLE ARE LOOKING FOR LIVE MUSIC.

THEY'RE LOOKING FOR THESE KIND OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF EXPERIENCES.

BREWPUBS AND THERE'S A MISCONCEPTION, WHICH I'M GLAD YOU DEMONSTRATED, WHAT YOUR VENUE IS, WHICH IT IS VERY FAMILY FRIENDLY AND LOTS OF ACTIVITIES.

AND MY FAVORITE ONE IS WHERE YOU HAD THE KIDS DRESSED UP IN THE SUMO OUTFITS AND THERE WERE SUMO WRESTLING OUT THERE ON THE FRONT PORCH AND EVERYONE'S JUST HAVING HAVING A GREAT TIME, YOU KNOW, OF WHAT YOU PLAN TO BRING TO THIS TRACK.

YOU KNOW, THE MODEL THAT WE'RE PUTTING INTO PLACE HERE HAS BEEN A TOOL THAT HAS BEEN VERY SUCCESSFUL FOR FRISCO, FOR OTHER TYPE OF VENUES.

BABE'S CHICKEN HOUSE WAS DONE WITH THIS VERY KIND OF VERY SIMILAR KIND OF FINANCING TOOL.

FIELD HOUSE USA.

BELIEVE IT OR NOT, FIELD HOUSE USA WAS PROBABLY ONE OF THE MOST CONTROVERSIAL PROJECTS I'VE WORKED ON AS A COUNCIL MEMBER BECAUSE AT THE TIME IT WAS A VERY SIMILAR DEBT STRUCTURE, AN UNPROVEN OPERATOR.

BUT WE JUST KNEW THAT WE NEEDED TO PROVIDE THIS TO OUR COMMUNITY AND THERE WAS A FEW BUMPS IN THE ROAD ALONG THE WAY IN THAT AGREEMENT.

BUT AT THE END HERE, ALMOST 20 YEARS LATER, THAT'S TURNED INTO BE ONE OF FRISCO'S BIGGEST SUCCESS PROJECTS.

YOU KNOW, IN THIS EXAMPLE, WE'VE GOT A PROVEN OPERATOR WITH AN ESTABLISHED BRAND, A VERY POPULAR BRAND.

YOU KNOW, CERTAINLY YOUR AUDIENCE AND QUICKLY GROWING AUDIENCE, AS YOU MENTIONED, WITH BEN AND SKIN SHOW AND THE NEW NETWORK.

CONGRATULATIONS ON THAT, BY THE WAY, THE FREAK.

THANK YOU. YOU KNOW, IT'S JUST ANOTHER IMPORTANT TOOL FOR US.

SO, YOU KNOW, THROUGH THESE CONVERSATIONS, I KNOW YOU UNDERSTAND THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THIS PIECE OF PROPERTY AND WHAT IT MEANS.

AND REALLY, I BELIEVE IT'S GOING TO KICK START FRISCO JUNCTION INTO A VERY SPECIAL PLACE .

THAT THAT'S GOING TO BECOME KIND OF THAT AUSTIN VIBE RIGHT IN THE HEART OF MAIN STREET, MAIN AND MAIN ESSENTIALLY, AND REALLY KIND OF BUILD OUT AN ENTIRE DISTRICT.

I KNOW THESE VENUES, YOU KNOW, THEY ACTUALLY THRIVE WHEN THERE'S MORE, YOU KNOW, SO ONE IS GREAT.

WHEN THERE'S THREE, THAT'S EVEN BETTER.

EVERYONE KIND OF WINS AND SUCCEEDS.

AND SO, AGAIN, THANK YOU FOR TRUSTING FRISCO, TRUSTING US.

AND I KNOW WE CERTAINLY TRUST YOU TO BE GREAT PARTNERS.

SO WITH THAT, I KNOW MY COUNCILMEMBERS HAVE A FEW QUESTIONS AS WELL THAT THEY WOULD LOVE TO GET CLARIFIED, SO I'LL TURN IT OVER TO THEM.

WE HAVE A PUBLIC COMMENT.

[01:05:02]

TONY FELKER, PLEASE.

I WONDER IF TONY'S IN FAVOR.

[LAUGHTER] GOOD EVENING, MAYOR. HOW MANY OF THOSE RATINGS WAS TONY? TONY FELKER, FRISCO CHAMBERS, 6843 MAIN STREET.

AND ALSO HERE INDIVIDUALLY, AS OBVIOUSLY I'VE DEVELOPED A REPUTATION OVER THE LAST THREE OR FOUR YEARS OF BECOMING A LITTLE BIT OF A CRAFT BEER AFICIONADO.

BUT ACTUALLY HERE TONIGHT, YES, I BELIEVE THIS IS GOOD FOR BUSINESS.

YES, I BELIEVE IT'S GOOD BECAUSE AS IT'S BEEN MENTIONED FROM A TOURISM PERSPECTIVE, PEOPLE ARE LEAVING TO GO TO BREWERIES OUTSIDE OF TOWN AS WE VISITED OVER THE YEARS, TRYING TO EDUCATE EVERYBODY AS TO WHAT A BREWPUB IS.

AS YOU HAVE ALLUDED TO, MAYOR, IT'S NOT THE STEREOTYPICAL IMAGE THAT PEOPLE HAVE.

IT IS ABOUT COMMUNITY, FAMILY AND BRINGING PEOPLE TOGETHER.

AND RATHER THAN ME AND MY SELF INTEREST, I WANT TO ADDRESS ALL THE OTHER POINTS THAT REALLY THIS CHECKS SO MANY OTHER BOXES FROM REINVESTMENT IN DOWNTOWN, WHICH WILL BENEFIT BOTH THE FRISCO SQUARE AREA AND THE RAIL DISTRICT, BE THAT UNIFYING AREA.

IT IS ABOUT LIVE MUSIC AND UNIQUE VENUES FOR THE PUBLIC, WHICH IS WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR.

IT IS ABOUT MARKETING AND TOURISM FOR THE AREA.

IT'S CAPITALIZING UPON THE OTHER VENUES.

AND AS YOU SAID, MAYOR, WHEN YOU BRING ONE OF THESE TYPE EVENTS IN IT'LL LEAD TO OTHERS AND IT DOES BECOME A DESTINATION AREA.

THE OTHER THING IS I'VE GOTTEN TO KNOW BEN AND JONATHAN AND SKIN, AND THESE ARE PEOPLE THAT TRULY BELIEVE IN THE COMMUNITY AT THEIR END.

I TRULY BELIEVE THEY MEAN WELL.

THEY'RE NOT LOOKING JUST TO COME IN AND DO SOMETHING AND TAKE A LITTLE BIT OF A PROFIT.

THEY ARE VESTED IN THE COMMUNITY THAT THEY'RE IN.

FROM THE FIRST TIME I MET THEM, IT'S ABOUT COMMUNITY, IT'S ABOUT MUSIC, IT'S ABOUT GIVING BACK TO PROJECTS.

AND I THINK FOR THIS PARTICULAR PROJECT, YOU'VE GOT TRULY A HOME RUN IN HERE AND IT CHECKS SO MANY BOXES THAT YOU GUYS ARE LOOKING AT.

SO YES, IF THERE WAS ANY QUESTION I IN SUPPORT OF THIS PROJECT FOR NUMEROUS REASONS.

THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU, TONY.

ALL RIGHT, COUNCIL, WHAT QUESTIONS DO YOU HAVE? MOVE TO APPROVE ITEM 43.

OH, I'M SORRY.

I DIDN'T REALLY HAVE A QUESTION.

I GUESS MORE OF SOME COMMENTS.

SO I AM NOT A BEER DRINKER, BUT I WILL BE THERE FOR THE MUSIC.

I THINK WHAT'S EXCITING ABOUT THE PROJECT IS EVERYTHING THAT'S COMING WITH IT.

AND, YOU KNOW, WE WANT PEOPLE TO LIVE, WORK, PLAY, BUT WE WANT THEM TO STAY IN FRISCO AND CREATE A DESTINATION.

CREATING A DESTINATION DOWNTOWN IS SO IMPORTANT.

THAT IS WHAT PEOPLE, CONSTITUENTS ARE CONSTANTLY ASKING FOR, A BIGGER DESTINATION THERE.

SO THAT'S WHAT WE'RE LOOKING TO SEE HAPPEN THERE.

I'M SO EXCITED THAT IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN AND, YOU KNOW, INCREASING BEER, THAT'S FINE.

THAT'S ONE PART OF IT. BUT IT'S NOT JUST THAT FOR FOLKS THAT MIGHT BE WORRIED ABOUT WHAT WE'RE INVESTING IN, IT'S WE'RE INVESTING IN THE COMMUNITY.

SO THANK YOU FOR YOUR VISION.

I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING HOW IT'S ALL BUILT OUT.

I HAVE ONE MORE QUESTION, WHICH I KNOW IS PROBABLY HARD TO BELIEVE, BUT I'VE ASKED A LOT OF QUESTIONS ON THIS.

WE MENTIONED IT, BUT JUST CURIOUS.

I DIDN'T READ IT. WHAT IS THE PLAN FOR THE SILOS RELATED TO THIS PROJECT? IT'S A GOOD QUESTION. WE'VE ACTUALLY HIRED A STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING FIRM AND THEY'RE GOING TO BE GOING OUT THERE HERE IN THE NEXT WEEK OR TWO TO DO A FULL EVALUATION OF THE SILOS, BECAUSE WE DON'T KNOW YET.

BASED ON THAT REPORT, WILL DETERMINE WHETHER THEY CAN BE INCORPORATED INTO THE FACILITY OR IF WE SHOULD JUST LEAVE THEM ALONE AND THEY CAN BE A BACKSTOP FOR THE STAGE OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. SO WE'RE ACTIVELY INVESTIGATING THOSE.

THAT'S MY LAST QUESTION.

WELL, I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT TO DISCUSS KIND OF HOW THIS IS BEING STRUCTURED, WHICH IS THIS WILL BE A CITY OWNED BUILDING AND THEN THE RENT PAYMENTS GO TOWARDS THE DEBT SERVICE. AND SO THIS IS, IT WAS IMPORTANT FOR THE CITY TO MAKE AND MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE LAND NEXT TO THE SILOS.

AND SO WE'LL VERY MUCH HAVE A SEAT AT THE TABLE THROUGH ARCHITECTURE AND DESIGN AND CERTAINLY NEEDS TO WORK FOR YOUR NEEDS TO BE SUCCESSFUL.

BUT, YOU KNOW, IT WILL BE A PARTNERSHIP AS WE COLLABORATE TO BUILD SOMETHING.

THAT'S A GREAT POINT. IT WILL CONTINUE TO BE A CDC OWNED ASSET ON CITY PROPERTY.

TONY, IF YOU WANT TO BE ON THE COMMITTEE, THAT HELPS US DESIGN.

[LAUGHTER] ALL RIGHT, COUNCIL, WHAT OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS DO YOU HAVE? IF NOT, I'LL LOOK FOR A MOTION.

MOVE TO PROVIDE ITEM 43.

MOTION BY BILL. SECOND.

SECOND BY JOHN. ALL IN FAVOR.

AYE.

MOTION PASSES 6-0.

CONGRATULATIONS AND WELCOME TO FRISCO.

[APPLAUSE] THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

AND IF Y'ALL DON'T MIND HANGING FOR, LIKE, FIVE MORE MINUTES.

YOU, TOO. TONY. WOULD LOVE TO HAVE YOU ON OUR COUNCIL RECAP TO TALK ABOUT IT AS WE JUST WRAP UP THIS LAST ITEM.

[44. Consider and act upon the adoption of an Amendment to Ordinance No. 17-08-58, Chapter 78 (Streets, Sidewalks and Other Public Property), modifying Article II (Right-of-Way Management), Article III (Technical Specifications), and Article IV (Fees, Enforcement and Penalties) governing the public right-of-way. (Public Works/SL)]

GOOD AFTERNOON, MAYOR AND COUNCIL.

JASON COOLEY, CHIEF INNOVATION OFFICER.

THIS IS A CLEANUP ITEM.

BACK IN 2017, WE CAME FORWARD WITH AN AMENDMENT TO THE RIGHT OF WAY ORDINANCE TO INCLUDE NETWORK NODES.

AND SO THAT WAS THAT PIECE WHERE WE ADDED NETWORK INTO THE RIGHT OF WAY.

THIS IS ANOTHER CLEANUP ITEM TO EXPAND UPON THAT.

SPECIFICALLY ON TWO POINTS.

IT ACTUALLY RECONCILES OUR CURRENT PRACTICES WITH THE RIGHT OF WAY ORDINANCE.

SO THAT'S THE CLEAN UP PIECE.

FIRST PART, IT EXPANDS UPON THE DEFINITION TO INCLUDE FIBER OPTIC CABLE COMMUNICATION FACILITIES AND OUR TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT SYSTEM.

THE SECOND PIECE IS A REQUIREMENT FOR ONLINE PERMITTING IN OUR CODE, IN OUR ORDINANCE.

CURRENTLY, WE HAVE AN ONLINE PERMITTING PROCESS FOR RIGHT OF WAY WORK, AND IT'S NOT IN AN ORDINANCE.

SO WE JUST WANT TO CLEAN THAT PIECE UP.

AND FINALLY, THE LAST PIECE AND MAYBE THE MOST IMPORTANT PIECE, IT HAS A CLARIFICATION OF THE REQUIREMENTS TO CLEAN UP AND RESTORE RIGHT AWAY AFTER WORK IS BEING DONE.

SO THAT'S CURRENTLY NOT CLEARLY STATED IN THE ORDINANCE, BUT THIS PIECE RIGHT HERE BRINGS IT BACK IN.

SO WHEN THE WORK IS COMPLETED, WE HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S DONE RIGHT AND CLEANED UP AND IT'S ACTUALLY IN THE ORDINANCE.

SO THAT'S WHERE WE ARE.

SO IT'S THE CLEANUP ITEM THAT WE BROUGHT FORWARD TO EXPAND THOSE DEFINITIONS.

THANK YOU, JASON.
