I'M A PROUD MEMBER OF BOTH OUR AMERICAN LEGION AND VFW. AND SHE KNEW ALL OF US. OUR FIRST FRISCO FEMALE VFW POST COMMANDER HAD INTENDED TO BE HERE TONIGHT TO ACCEPT THIS PROCLAMATION. SHE COULDN'T MAKE IT. MY HUMBLE PRIVILEGE TO ACCEPT ON HER BEHALF AND AS WE LIKE TO SAY WELL, MY LAST FINAL WORDS IS AS A VETERAN AND AS A CITIZEN, WE ALWAYS WANT TO EXTEND A THANK YOU TO ALL OF OUR SERVICE MEMBERS BUT ESPECIALLY TO OUR VIETNAM VETERANS WHO WOULD LIKE TO SAY WELCOME HOME BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T GET THE WELCOME THAT THE REST OF US GOT.

I'M ANITA COTHRAN, CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER FOR THE CITY. YOU HAVE OUR REPORT IN FRONT OF YOU, AND I'D BE GLAD TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS FOR TRACKING AS WE HAD PROJECTED AT THIS TIME OF YEAR. >> IT'S GREAT NEWS. COUNCIL, WHAT QUESTIONS DO YOU HAVE? ALL RIGHT. [OVERLAPPING] THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU. >> ITEM 8 IS OUR DEVELOPMENT SERVICES MONTHLY ACTIVITY REPORT FOR FEBRUARY. [8. Development Services monthly activity update report for the month of February 2023.] >> JOHN LETTELLEIR, DIRECTOR OF DEVELOPMENT SERVICES. THE ONLY THING TO MENTION, AND JALEO, YOU MENTIONED THAT DURING THE WORK SESSION ABOUT THE ACTING ACADEMY THAT TEACHES CRITICAL THINKING. CHRIS LEONARD ON THE DEVELOPMENT SERVICES STAFF, HE WENT DOWN THERE TO WORK WITH THE STUDENTS AND THE PROJECT THAT THE STUDENTS CAME UP WITH WAS PRESENTED AT THE DOWNTOWN ADVISORY BOARD. BESIDES THAT, I'LL BE GLAD TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE ABOUT THE REPORT. >> THANK YOU. WE HAD A GOOD DISCUSSION AT OUR WORK SESSION THIS AFTERNOON ABOUT DOWNTOWN AND THE RAIL DISTRICT AND HOW WE WANT TO SEE THE CITY'S PROPERTY DEVELOPED DOWN THERE. THANK YOU FOR THAT WALKING TOUR AND DISCUSSION. COUNCIL, WHAT OTHER QUESTIONS DO YOU HAVE? THANK YOU. ITEM 9 IS OUR VISIT FRISCO REPORT. [9. Visit Frisco February sales and marketing reports.] >> GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. JOSH DILL, DIRECTOR OF SPORTS AND EVENTS FOR VISIT FRISCO. WE'VE HAD A GOOD START TO THE WEEK. WE'VE HAD SOME BIG ANNOUNCEMENTS THIS WEEK. THE ONE THAT I WANTED TO POINT OUT HERE WAS THE SPORTS BUSINESS JOURNAL, WHICH IS THE TOP PUBLICATION FOR PROFESSIONALS IN THE WORLD OF SPORTS, RECOGNIZED DALLAS, WHICH INCLUDES FRISCO AS THE TOP SPORTS BUSINESS CITY IN THE UNITED STATES. WE WORKED WITH THE EDC TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS PUBLICATION WHICH DROPPED ON MONDAY, AND DO A TWO-PAGE SPREAD PROMOTING, YOU NEED TO BRING YOUR SPORTS EVENTS AND YOUR SPORTS BUSINESS TO FRISCO. [LAUGHTER] WE'VE GOTTEN A GREAT RESPONSE FROM THAT ALREADY. WHEN YOU SEE THE AD, IT'S A SOCCER AD, AND THE REASON FOR THAT IS BECAUSE WE'RE REALLY LOBBYING HARD FOR FIFA TO BRING THEIR FINAL OR SEMI-FINAL TO THE AREA. KNOWING THAT THAT'S ONE OF YOUR PRIORITIES, I WANTED TO GIVE A BRIEF UPDATE. JUST SAY THAT WE'VE BEEN INVOLVED IN THREE HIGH-LEVEL MARKETING MEETINGS, THE BEGINNING OF UNDERSTANDING WHAT THE MARKS ARE GOING TO BE FOR WORLD CUP 2026, WHICH WE'RE HOPING WILL BE RELEASED. ACTUALLY, IN THE COMING MONTHS, WE'LL START TO SEE MERCHANDISE FOR WORLD CUP 2026. [00:15:03] FRISCO CONTINUES TO PLAY A BIG ROLE ON THE SPORTS SCENE ACROSS DFW AND ACROSS THE COUNTRY. OTHER THAN THAT, I DON'T WANT TO STEAL THE THUNDER ON THE MUSIC-FRIENDLY CITY THAT WAS ANNOUNCED. GOT OUT THERE REALLY QUICKLY. THE STATE RELEASED THAT, BUT WE'LL HAVE SOME MORE ON THAT AT THE NEXT COUNCIL MEETING. BUT IT'S A VERY EXCITING DEVELOPMENT AND SOMETHING THAT WE ALL TALKED ABOUT, I THINK 2 YEARS AGO AT A BOARD MEETING. WE CONTINUE TO TRY TO MAKE FRISCO A GOOD CITY FOR EVERYONE, SO I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS ON THE REPORT. >> THAT'S GREAT. IT'S BEEN A GOOD WEEK. I THINK WHAT THAT REALLY SHOULD HAVE SAID IS FRISCO IS THE SPORTS CITY AND JUST HAPPENS TO INCLUDE DALLAS. I THINK IT WAS [OVERLAPPING]. JOHN SENT ME A TEXT, HE HEARD IT ON THE RADIO, AND THEY SAID DALLAS, AND THEN THEY NAMED EVERY FRISCO PROJECT IN THE ANNOUNCEMENT. [LAUGHTER] >> WE JOKED WITH MONICA PAUL, FROM THE DALLAS SPORTS COMMISSION, ACTUALLY, RIGHT BEFORE I CAME IN HERE AND I SAID, I THINK IF YOU HAD SEGMENTED OUT FRISCO, WE'D PROBABLY MAKE THAT LIST. DALLAS MIGHT DROP A LITTLE BIT IF YOU DIDN'T HAVE ALL OF OUR FUN PROJECTS TO INCLUDE THERE, AND SHE AGREED WITH THAT. BUT OVERALL, WE HAVE GREAT CO-OPETITION AMONGST ALL THE CITIES, IS WHAT I LIKE TO SAY, AND EVEN THOUGH WE COMPETE FOR EVENTS, WE'RE BETTER AS A COLLECTIVE IN A LOT OF WAYS. >> COUNCIL, WHAT ARE OTHER QUESTIONS YOU HAVE? ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU. >> ITEM 10 IS OUR FIRE DEPARTMENT REPORT. [10. Fire Department monthly report on incident responses and educational activities for the month of February 2023.] >> GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL, LEE GLOVER, INTERIM FIRE CHIEF. PROBABLY THE BIGGEST THING WE GOT HAPPENING IN APRIL, WE DO HAVE THE COMMISSION ON FIRE ACCREDITATION INTERNATIONAL COMING TO DO A SITE VISIT OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT ON THE APRIL 16TH THROUGH THE 19TH. WE ACTUALLY REQUESTED TO GO A MONTH EARLY DUE TO MAY HAVING TWO GREAT EVENTS HERE IN FRISCO. WE'RE GOING TO BE A LITTLE BUSY, SO WE ASKED THEM TO COME EARLY, AND THEY OBLIGED. OTHER THAN THAT, YOU HAVE OUR FEBRUARY MONTHLY REPORT. I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. >> CHIEF, COUNCIL? NO? ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU. THEN ITEM 11 IS OUR POLICE DEPARTMENT REPORT. [11. Police Department's crime statistics and response times for the month of February 2023.] >> GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. DAVID SHILSON, THE POLICE CHIEF HERE IN FRISCO. I'LL START BY BRAGGING ON ONE OF OUR NEWEST DEPUTY CHIEF WHO JUST COMPLETED 10 WEEKS AT THE FBI NATIONAL ACADEMY IN QUANTICO. THIS IS A VERY WELL-RECOGNIZED LAW ENFORCEMENT TRAINING THAT PUTS LAW ENFORCEMENT EXECUTIVES WITH OTHER LAW ENFORCEMENT EXECUTIVES FROM ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND THE WORLD. HE JUST RETURNED HOME LAST WEEK, AND SO THIS IS JUST ONE OF THE WAYS THAT WE DEMONSTRATE OUR COMMITMENT TO DEVELOPING LEADERSHIP WITHIN OUR DEPARTMENT. WE NOW HAVE SEVEN FBI NATIONAL ACADEMY GRADUATES ON STAFF WITHIN OUR DEPARTMENT, WHICH IS EXCEPTIONAL FOR A DEPARTMENTAL OUR SIZE. SO WE'LL CONTINUE THAT COMMITMENT TO SENDING LEADERSHIP TO THIS PROGRAM. IT'S PART OF OUR GREAT RELATIONSHIP WITH THE FBI AS WELL. SPEAKING OF LEADERSHIP, WE HOSTED LEADERSHIP FRISCO CLASS 26 FOR PUBLIC SAFETY DAY BACK ON MARCH THE 3RD. THEY SPENT HALF THE DAY AT OUR DEPARTMENT AND THEN HALF THE DAY WITH THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. THESE ARE JUST A FEW OF THE THINGS THAT WE COVERED. WE HAD THE COLLIN COUNTY DA WITH US. COLLIN COUNTY SHERIFF, OUR FBI JOINT TERRORISM TASK FORCE REPRESENTATIVES, AND THEN THEY GOT A TOUR OF THE PD. IT WAS A GOOD DAY. IT WAS A GOOD CHANCE FOR THEM TO GET SOME PERSPECTIVE ON PUBLIC SAFETY HERE IN FRISCO. WE'RE KICKING OFF CITIZENS POLICE ACADEMY CLASS 52 THURSDAY NIGHT. IT'S TOO LATE FOR PEOPLE TO SIGN UP FOR THIS CLASS, BUT I WOULD HIGHLY ENCOURAGE FOLKS, IF THEY HAVEN'T BEEN THROUGH IT, TO SIGN UP AND GO THROUGH. WE DO THIS IN THE SPRING AND FALL. IT'S A 12-WEEK PROGRAM THAT ALLOWS PEOPLE TO GET TO KNOW THE POLICE DEPARTMENT, LEARN A LOT DEEPER UNDERSTANDING OF LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT, AND WHAT I ALWAYS TELL THE CLASSES IS THEY LEAVE WITH A BETTER UNDERSTANDING, BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, THEY LEAVE WITH A RELATIONSHIP WITH MANY OF THE PEOPLE THAT WORK HERE WITHIN FRISCO PD. THAT'S THE CRITICAL PIECE THAT WE WANT PEOPLE TO TAKE AWAY AND A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT WE DO. LAST BUT NOT LEAST, I WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT A FEATURE THAT WE'RE DOING ON OUR SOCIAL MEDIA CHANNELS EVERY WEDNESDAY. THIS IS IN COORDINATION WITH COLLIN COUNTY ANIMAL SERVICES. TRYING TO EMPTY THE ANIMAL SHELTER AND GET SOME ANIMALS ADOPTED. WE'RE FEATURING SOME OF THE LONG TIMER RESONANCE OF THE ANIMAL SHELTER, A DOG AND A CAT. [00:20:05] WE'VE HAD SOME SUCCESSES ALREADY IN GETTING SOME ANIMALS ADOPTED. THIS IS ONE OF THE EFFORTS THAT WE'LL CONTINUE TO EXPAND ON IN HOPES OF GETTING SOME OF THE ANIMALS HOMES. WITH THAT, YOU HAVE OUR FEBRUARY MONTHLY REPORT. I'LL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. >> CHIEF, COUNCIL ANY QUESTIONS? NO? >> THANK YOU. >> COUNCIL THAT'LL TAKE US TO ITEM 12 COUNCIL'S SUBCOMMITTEE REPORTS, ARE THERE ANY UPDATES? [12. 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.] >> I'LL GIVE YOU ONE HERE FROM A FACT, WE'VE GOT [NOISE] A NEW FEATURE RATES ACROSS AMERICA, WHICH I THINK A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE FAMILIAR WITH BUT WE WANT TO OBVIOUSLY INTRODUCE THE PROJECT TO MORE FOLKS, SO THERE'S NOW A MOBILE EXHIBITS. WE HOPE TO HAVE IT HERE IN FRISCO ON MAY 25TH AND LOCATION WILL BE DETERMINED WORKING WITH STAFF ON THAT. THEN AS YOU KNOW ALL OF US ARE VFW POST COMMANDER WANTED TO MAKE SURE I SHARED WITH EVERYONE THAT WE'RE DOING A VIETNAM VETERANS WELCOME HOME CEREMONY ON MARCH 29TH AND EVERYONE IS INVITED, WE WILL HAVE A VIETNAM-ERA HUEY HELICOPTER LANDING IN FRONT OF MBC SUITES AT 05:30 PM, I WILL HAVE ORDERS AND A CASH BAR AND A BOOK SIGNING OF THE BOOK THE FLYING GRUNT BY LIEUTENANT GENERAL RICHARD CAREY, HE'LL BE ALSO IN REGULAR SPEAKERS. THE PROGRAM ACTUALLY STARTED ABOUT 06:30 AND AGAIN, THIS IS AT EMBASSY SUITES RIGHT HERE IN FRISCO BUSINESS ATTIRE AND WE'VE HAD THIS EVENT BEFORE IT, WILL GET SEVERAL HUNDRED PEOPLE THERE AND NOT JUST VETERANS. WE GET A LOT OF CITIZENS HEAR FROM THE COMMUNITY, FROM THE SURROUNDING REGION, AND IT'S JUST A GREAT AND POWERFUL EVENT. ASSISTANTS SHOULD HEAR FROM OUR VETERANS GET TO MEET VIETNAM VETERANS AND REALLY EXPERIENCE SOME GREAT CAMARADERIE, AND HERE'S SOME INCREDIBLE STORIES. >> JOHN WHAT WAS THAT DATE AGAIN? >> IT'S MARCH 29TH. >> WEDNESDAY. >> WEDNESDAY, THANK YOU. AT THE EMBASSY SUITES HERE IN FRISCO. THE HUEY WILL END AT 05:30. IF YOU'VE BEEN AT PREVIOUS EVENTS THERE, IT'S FLOWN BY BUBBLE PILOT, BUT IT IS AN OLD HELICOPTER AND I THINK THEY TRIMMED ONE OF THE EMBASSY SUITES TREES FOR FREE [LAUGHTER] LANDING IT A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO. [LAUGHTER] IT'S ACTUALLY PRETTY COOL TO WATCH THIS THING COME IN AND LAND FOR THE EVENT SO A LOT OF FUN, 5:30 FOR THAT, 6:30 FOR THE PROGRAM TO START EMBASSY SUITES AGAIN, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 29TH. >> ANY OTHER SUBCOMMITTEE UPDATES? >> WE DID HAVE TO CANCEL THE ANIMAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE THIS LAST WEEK BECAUSE OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS. SO WE HAVE RESCHEDULED IT TO THIS THURSDAY. SO IF ANYBODY'S INTERESTED IN JOINING, PLEASE COME OUT AND CHECK THAT OUT. >> WE WILL GO AHEAD AND MOVE INTO CITIZEN INPUT, [CITIZEN INPUT (to begin approximately at 7:30 p.m.)] AND THEN WE'VE GOT A COUPLE OF CARDS THAT ARE SIGNED UP HERE. >> YES, WE DO. WE HAVE STEVEN NOSKIN, STEVEN NOSKIN IF YOU CAN COME FORWARD, STATE YOUR ADDRESS, PLEASE. >> SURE. HI, MAYOR, COUNCILMAN MEMBERS, HOW ARE YOU TONIGHT? MY NAME IS STEVEN NOSKIN. I LIVE AT 3686 BALFOUR COURT, FRISCO, TEXAS. I'M HERE TODAY TO SPEAK AS A RESIDENT OF THE HILLS OF KINGSWOOD. WE'VE REACHED OUT TO A FEW COUNCIL MEMBERS AND THE MAYOR ABOUT A SITUATION THAT'S OCCURRING IN OUR COMMUNITY. I JUST WANTED TO SAY THERE'S MANY GREAT ATTRIBUTES THAT BRING PART OF FRISCO AND THERE'S GREAT ALTERNATIVES FOR PEOPLE OF ALL TYPES OF DEMOGRAPHICS TO MOVE TO DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE COMMUNITY, AND WHILE THE HIKE AND BIKE TRAIL IS AN AMAZING FEATURE THAT YOU PROVIDE TO THE CITIZENS HERE, THE HILLS OF KINGSWOOD WE PRIDE OURSELVES ON OUR SECURITY AND THAT'S WHY WE HAVE A GATED COMMUNITY, THAT'S PART OF THE REASON WHY PEOPLE MOVE TO OUR COMMUNITY. THINGS ARE HAPPENING IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD THAT YOU'RE FULLY AWARE OF AND THERE'S VETTED GUESTS THAT ARE ARRIVING THROUGH THE TRAIL SYSTEM, AND WE'VE MADE RECOMMENDATIONS TO JOHN LETTELLEIR AND OTHER PEOPLE ON THE CITY OF FRISCO STAFF. WE UNDERSTAND THAT OUR HOA SUGGESTED A REASONABLE COMPROMISE WHICH WAS BROUGHT TO YOUR ATTENTION ABOUT A YEAR AGO TO JOHN LETTELLEIR ATTENTION, AND WE WERE GIVEN, SORRY FOR MY NOTES HERE, BUT WE'RE ALLOWED TO CLOSE ACCESS TO OUR TRAIL TEMPORARILY WERE NOT ALLOWED TO CLOSE AND UNLESS ALL HOK, HILLS OF KINGSWOOD CONSTRUCTIONS FINISHED, THAT THE LOCK GATES ARE INSTALLED AT EVERY TRAIL ACCESS POINT AND THE TRAIL ACTUALLY LEAD SOMEWHERE. WE'D LIKE TO MAKE THE POINT THAT ALL OF THE TRAILS ARE NOT EQUAL. THE MASTER PLAN AND VISION TO OPEN AND AIRY GREEN BELTS THAT CAN BE SAFELY ENJOYED BY ALL BUT IN CONTRAST, [00:25:01] THE AREA ADJACENT TO THE HILLS OF KINGSWOOD, WHICH IS LOW-LYING, HEAVILY WOODED, SECLUDED FLOODPLAIN THAT IS NEITHER MONITORED OR PATROLED FOR SAFETY. MANY OF OUR RESIDENTS ALREADY FEEL UNSAFE ALONG THE TRAIL, HIT THE CITY WANTS TO ALLOW ANYONE AT ANYTIME TO ACCESS OUR COMMUNITY AND THEIR HOMES UNDER CONSTRUCTION. AND IN FACT, WE PROVIDED PICTURES OF UNTHREADED PEOPLE COMING IN TO THE COMMUNITY, TAKING PLYWOOD FROM BUILDING SITES AND BUILDING TEMPORARY HOMES IN THE CREEKS AREA. REMEMBER, THERE IS ANOTHER HIKING BIKE TRAIL JUST 750 FEET NORTH OF OUR COMMUNITY THAT RUNS EAST, WEST AND ACCOMPLISHES THE SAME PURPOSE. BUILDING A PARALLEL TRAIL THAT'S CLOSE AND IS UNNECESSARY, NOT TO MENTION THE HIGH COST OF BUILDING TWO BRIDGES WHICH ARE ON YOUR PLANS ACROSS FROM OUR TRAIL TO THE ONE NORTH OF US. MANY OF OUR RESIDENTS ALREADY FEEL UNSAFE ALONG THE TRAIL, YET THE CITY WANTS TO ALLOW ANYONE AT ANYTIME TO ACCESS THIS THROUGH THOSE BRIDGES. THEREFORE, WE REQUEST THE CITY TO FULLY CONSIDER THE FACTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES OF OUR UNIQUE SITUATION AND ALLOW OUR CREST. WE HUMBLY ASK AN AGENDA ITEM BE INCLUDED AT THE NEXT CITY COUNCIL MEETING TO DIRECT THE CITY DEVELOPMENT SERVICES TO ACT AS REQUESTED BY THE EARLIER HILL'S OF KINGSWOOD WITH HOA. WE TRULY APPRECIATE ANY CONSIDERATION AND HOPEFULLY WE'LL LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING IT ON THE AGENDA. THANK YOU. >> DICKERSON. >> MAYOR CHENEY, COUNSELORS THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK TONIGHT. MY NAME IS ART DICKERSON OF 2340 CORTLAND DRIVE ON THE HILLS OF KINGSWOOD AND ALSO I GUESS I MISSED MY OPPORTUNITY ALSO VIETNAM ERA VETERAN SERVICE DAYS 1971 THROUGH 1974, SO NEXT TIME I'LL TRY TO STAND UP THERE WITH YOU. >> THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE. >> I HAPPEN TO ALSO BE THE ONLY RESIDENT ON THE HILLS OF KINGSWOOD HOMEOWNERS ASSOCIATION BOARD, SO I'M HERE REALLY ON BEHALF OF 700 RESIDENTS TONIGHT TO SPEAK TO YOU ABOUT THEIR CONCERNS. HAD I REVERSED THE ORDER, THAT WOULD HAVE MADE MORE SENSE, I WOULD'VE SPOKEN FIRST AND MR. JOHNSON WOULD SPOKE SECOND. BUT I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT WE ARE REALLY INTERESTED, THE COMMUNITY IS INTERESTED IN THIS ESTEEMED BODY TO CONSIDER AN AGENDA ITEM THAT WOULD ALLOW THE HILLS OF KINGSWOOD TO PROCEED WITH A SPECIAL HEARING ON THE PROPOSED CHANGE TO OUR SPECIAL USE PERMIT. THAT'S ITEM NUMBER ONE AND NUMBER TWO IS TO CLOSE ACCESS TO THE TRAIL FOR THE REASONS THAT STEPHEN AUSTIN HAS ALREADY TALKED ABOUT. THOSE ARE THE TWO THINGS THAT WE'RE REALLY ASKING FOR. SIMPLE CHANGE TO OUR SPECIAL USE PERMIT, THE SUP TO EXTEND OUT AND BUILD A ESTATE HOMES AT THE ENTRANCE ALONG ROCK CREEK PARKWAY AND THEN MOVE A LINE ON A MAP TO HAVE A TRAIL TO INTERSECT WITH A PARALLEL TRAIL 750 FEET AWAY NORTH OF STUART CREEK AS OPPOSED TO WHAT THE CURRENT PLAN DEVELOPMENT IS. TODAY, OUR TRAIL GOES NOWHERE BECAUSE WE ARE A LONG TERM NEIGHBORHOOD AND DEVELOPMENT, WE WILL NOT BE FINISHED OR BUILT OUT FOR ANOTHER 10 YEARS. THE SIZE OF THE HOMES TAKEN IN THE SUPPLY CHAIN ISSUE IS CAUSING HOMES TO TAKE 2-4 YEARS TO DEVELOP AND WE STILL HAVE ABOUT 100 ACRES TO FINISH OUT. I WANTED TO LEAVE YOU WITH A THOUGHT THAT THE HILLS OF KINGSWOOD BOARD AND 700 ADULT RESIDENTS OVERWHELMINGLY WANT THIS CHANGE BUT AS WE'VE GONE THROUGH THE APPLICATION PROCESS, WE'VE BEEN TOLD IN THE RED LINES TO THE AGREEMENT THAT WE CANNOT GO FORWARD WITH THIS UNLESS WE HAVE ASSIGNED AND NOTARIZED CONSENT FORMS FROM 100 PERCENT OF THE RESIDENTS. NOW I'VE LIVED IN A LOT OF STATES, EIGHT HOMES, SIX STATES TO COUNTRIES I'VE NEVER HEARD SUCH A PRINCIPLE, AND I HOPE YOU WILL AGREE WITH ME THAT THIS IS AN INEXPLICABLE AND UNPRECEDENTED REQUIREMENT TO SUGGEST THAT OUR COMMUNITY IT'S UNDER LONG-TERM DEVELOPMENT WOULD HAVE TO WAIT TO PROTECT ITS SECURITY FOR THE PEOPLE THAT MOVE THEIR EXPRESSLY FOR THE SAFETY AND SECURITY THE GATED COMMUNITY PROVIDES. I WILL TELL YOU THAT HOMEOWNERS IN THIS COMMUNITY ARE SO WIRED UP ABOUT THIS BECAUSE IT'S A HIGHLY EMOTIVE TOPIC TODAY WITH ALL THE NEWS MEDIA, THERE WAS A NEWS ARTICLE TODAY ON FOX NEWS ABOUT SQUATTERS OCCUPYING HOMES AROUND THE COUNTRY, THAT IS A PROBLEM THAT WE CANNOT STOP THERE PEOPLE ARE CONCERNED. IN TWO WEEKS, I HAVE 650 PETITIONS FROM OUR COMMUNITY AND DEMANDING AND REQUESTING THAT THIS ESTEEMED COUNCIL CONSIDER THIS CHANGE. ALL WE'RE ASKING FOR IS THAT AGENDA ITEM TO BE PLACED ON THERE TO GIVE CONSIDERATION FOR US TO MOVE FORWARD FROM THE APPLICATION PROCESS, TO HOLD A SPECIAL HEARING, TO LET THE PUBLIC SPEAK. ALONG WITH THE TWO THINGS THAT WE'D LIKE TO HAVE ONE IS TO EXTEND OUR SPECIAL USE PERMIT BOUNDARY FOR ABOUT EIGHT ACRES AND ALSO CLOSE OFF THE TRAIL BY MOVING THAT TRAIL CONNECTION TO A DIFFERENT LOCATION, TO A DIFFERENT TRAIL CONNECTOR. THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERATION OF THIS IMPORTANT PROPOSED AGENDA ITEM. THANK YOU. [00:30:03] >> TRACIE SHIPMAN. >> MAYOR, COUNCIL, AND TEAM FRISCO. DONNA SHMITTLER IS HERE TONIGHT, BUT SHE'S BEEN OUT PLAYING IN THE RAIN ALL DAY, SO SHE DIDN'T WANT TO FEEL LIKE SHE COULD COME UP HERE AND TALK. BUT I'M GOING TO COME UP AND INVITE YOU ALL AS WELL AS ANYBODY WHO MIGHT BE WATCHING. OH, 10141, CALVARY COURT, FRISCO TEXAS, TRACIE SHIPMAN. AS A MEMBER OF THE HERITAGE ASSOCIATION OF FRISCO BOARD, I WANTED TO EXTEND AN INVITATION TO EVERYONE WHO'S OUT THERE TO A MEET AND GREET THAT WE'RE HAVING NOT FOR A CANDIDATE, BUT FOR OUR CITY MANAGER. NEXT TUESDAY NIGHT. I KNOW YOU ALL GET TO SPEND A LOT OF TIME WITH HIM, BUT NOT EVERYBODY OR ALL THE RESIDENTS IN TOWN HAVE HAD A CHANCE TO REALLY GET TO KNOW WES PIERSON. THE HERITAGE ASSOCIATION INVITED HIM TO COME AND SPEAK AT OUR MEETING NEXT TUESDAY, THE 28TH, FROM 7:00-8:00. IT'LL BE ABOUT 20 MINUTES OF HIM TALKING AND THEN SOME OPEN Q&A. WE'LL BE OPENING THE DOORS OF THE HERITAGE MUSEUM AT 6:30 FOR JUST SOME MINGLING, AND THEN REALLY STARTING THE PROGRAM AT 7:00. IT'S OPEN TO THE PUBLIC, GIVES EVERYONE A CHANCE IF THEY HAVEN'T HAD A CHANCE TO COME AND SEE THE MUSEUM, TO COME SEE THE MUSEUM, BUT JUST AS IMPORTANTLY, AND I DO WANT TO SAY, WE TRY TO GET A HUEY HELICOPTER TO LAND IN FRONT OF THE MUSEUM, BUT WE JUST DIDN'T GET ORGANIZED WES. I'M SO SORRY, WE DIDN'T GET. NEXT TIME. [LAUGHTER] MR. ABERNETHY COMES TO SPEAK, I WILL MAKE SURE THAT THERE IS GOING TO BE A HUEY HELICOPTER. NO RSVP IS REQUIRED, BUT IF YOU ARE GOING TO ATTEND, IT'D BE NICE IF WE KNEW, YOU COULD LET US KNOW ON FACEBOOK, HERITAGE ASSOCIATION OF FRISCO, JUST SO WE KNOW HOW MANY SNACKS TO BRING. THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH AND THANK YOU WES FOR AGREEING TO BE THERE, AND I HOPE DONNA FEELS BETTER. >> THANK YOU. >> IS THERE ANYONE ELSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK DURING CITIZEN INPUT? OKAY. WELL, JUST SOME FOLLOW UP FROM YOUR COMMENTS. CITIZEN INPUT, WE RECEIVE INFORMATION. WE DO HAVE AN AGENDA ITEM ON HERE WHERE WE CAN REQUEST FOLLOW-UP AS A RESULT OF TONIGHT'S MEETING. WE WILL REQUEST THAT FROM JOHN AS FAR AS COUNCIL HAS RECEIVED INFORMATION ABOUT THIS REQUEST AND SOME STAFF COMMENTS ABOUT THIS REQUEST. I KNOW WE WERE WAITING TO HEAR FROM OUR PARKS DIRECTOR ON FEEDBACK AND PERHAPS YOU CAN FOLLOW UP WITH COUNCIL ON THAT. THEN ALSO THE PROCESS, IF COUNCIL WANTED TO PUT IT ON AGENDA TO DISCUSS WHAT THAT WOULD LOOK LIKE, AND THEN WE CAN FOLLOW UP WITH THE RESIDENTS AFTER THAT. THANK YOU.

THE CONCURRENCE OF TWO COUNCIL MEMBERS IS REQUIRED TO REMOVE ANY ITEM FOR DISCUSSION AND ACTION.

Consider and act upon adoption of a Resolution establishing the Park and Trail Naming Committee and nomination of one member of the City Council to serve on the Committee as an ex-officio member. (Parks and Recreation/JC)] ITEM 27 IS CONSIDERED AN ACT UPON ADOPTION OF A RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING THE PARK AND TRAIL NAMING COMMITTEE AND NOMINATION OF ONE MEMBER OF THE CITY COUNCIL TO SERVE ON THE COMMITTEE AS AN EX OFFICIO MEMBER. >> GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL. JOHN CHALFANT, ASSISTANT DIRECTOR OF PARKS AND RECREATION. YOU HAVE IN FRONT OF YOU A RESOLUTION TO BRING BACK THE PARKING TRAIL NAMING COMMITTEE THAT HASN'T MET IN A COUPLE OF YEARS. SHOULD YOU CHOOSE TO DO THIS, WE WOULD NEED ONE EX OFFICIO MEMBER FROM COUNCIL TO SERVE ON THAT COMMITTEE, MEANING YOU WOULD PARTICIPATE IN DISCUSSION, BUT YOU WOULD NOT VOTE ON A PARKING TRAIL NAMING ITEM UNTIL IT CAME IN FRONT OF YOU AS A COUNCIL. >> I NOMINATE BILL. >> SECOND. >> SECOND. [LAUGHTER] >> I THINK IT WAS USELESS TO EVEN JUST ASK. I JUST COULDN'T WAIT. >> ACTUALLY ANGELIA, I'LL LET YOU MAKE THE MOTION. >> I NOMINATE BILL. >> MOTION BY ANGELIA. THAT WAS A SECOND BY JOHN. ALL IN FAVOR? >> AYE. >> THAT MOTION PASSES 6-0. CONGRATULATIONS. IT WOULD HAVE BEEN FUNNIER IF I WOULD HAVE VOTED NAY ON THAT ONE, RIGHT? [LAUGHTER] >> DO WE NEED THE RESOLUTION TOO? >> NO. >> OKAY. THAT'S IT. >> THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU. >> ITEM 28 IS CONSIDERED AN ACT UPON ADOPTION OF AN ORDINANCE [28. Consider and act upon adoption of an Ordinance repealing Ordinance No. 2023-02-06 and designating eight (8) election precincts for the May 6, 2023 General Election and each election to be held in the City of Frisco, Collin and Denton Counties, Texas, thereafter, as ordered by the City Council. (CSO/KM)] REPEALING ORDINANCE NUMBER 2023-02-06, DESIGNATING EIGHT ELECTION PRECINCTS FOR THE MAY 6, 2023 GENERAL ELECTION AND EACH ELECTION TO BE HELD IN THE CITY OF FRISCO: AND DENTON COUNTIES THEREAFTER AS ORDERED BY THE CITY COUNCIL. >> MAYOR AND COUNCIL, THE INFORMATION I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU TONIGHT IS ABOUT BOTH 28 AND 29. [00:35:02] THEY ARE SIMILAR, THE EXACT SAME THING. THE FIRST ONE THAT YOU'RE GOING TO BE DISCUSSING TONIGHT IS AN ORDINANCE DESIGNATING OUR CITY PRECINCTS. WE HAVE TO DO THIS BEFORE WE CALL AN ELECTION. WE DID THAT THIS YEAR. AFTER WE HAD CALLED THE ELECTION, DENTON COUNTY HAS GONE AND LOOKED AT ALL THE PRECINCTS IN OUR CITY, BUT ALSO OUTSIDE OF THE CITY LIMITS, AND DECIDED THAT THE FIRE STATION NUMBER 7, OFFICE DOWN BROOKE PARKWAY HAS MORE PEOPLE THAN THEY WOULD LIKE COMING TO IT. THAT'S NOT BECAUSE OF FRISCO CITIZENS, BUT CITIZENS FROM OUTSIDE THE CITY LIMITS. THEY ASKED US TO PULL TWO OF OUR PRECINCTS, DENTON COUNTY PRECINCT 2081 AND 1024, AND HAVE THEM GO TO FIRE STATION NUMBER 4 INSTEAD. AFTER WE TALKED ABOUT IT, WE AGREED TO THAT. TO DO THAT ACTION, WE HAVE TO MODIFY THESE TWO ORDINANCES, NUMBER 28 AND 29. THIS WILL ALSO HELP REDUCE WAITING TIMES ON ELECTION DAY. EARLY VOTING IS NO ISSUE. DENTON COUNTY CITIZENS CAN VOTE ANYWHERE IN DENTON COUNTY, BUT ON AN ELECTION DAY YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF PEOPLE THAT THEY ANTICIPATE TO SHOW UP TO THESE FIRE STATIONS. THIS IS TO HELP BREAK THAT UP AND HOPEFULLY REDUCE WAITING TIMES FOR OUR CITIZENS, BUT ALSO FOR OTHERS OUTSIDE OF OUR CITY THAT ARE GOING TO GO TO THAT POLLING LOCATION. >> BUT YOU NEED TO VOTE INDIVIDUALLY ON THESE TWO ITEMS. >> WELL, AND I WOULD EXPECT THAT WE'RE GOING TO VOTE YES ON THIS. THIS QUESTION IS MORE FOR THE RESIDENTS LISTENING. IF WE'RE MOVING HOMES FROM ONE, FROM SAY, FIRE SEVEN TO FIRE FOUR, HOW MANY AREAS OF TOWN ARE NOW IMPACTED THAT ARE USED TO GOING TO FIRE SEVEN ON ELECTION DAY, THAT ARE NOW GOING TO GO TO FIRE FOUR? WHAT ARE WE DOING TO HELP NOTIFY SPECIFICALLY THOSE RESIDENTS THAT ARE GOING TO HAVE A NEW PLACE TO GO TO IF THEY CHOOSE TO ON ELECTION DAY? >> I CAN REACH OUT TO DENTON COUNTY AND SEE WHAT INFORMATION THEY'RE GOING TO PASS ALONG TO THEM. WE'RE GOING TO DO OUR NORMAL, WE HAVE ALL OF OUR WEBSITE INFORMATION OUT THERE THAT WILL TELL EVERYONE WHERE THEY SHOULD BE GOING. I DON'T KNOW IF THEY CAN GET US A LIST OF PEOPLE OR IF THEY HAVE THEIR OWN LIST OF THE ADDRESSES THAT WOULD BE AFFECTED AND PERHAPS SEND THEM SOMETHING. I CAN FOLLOW UP WITH DENTON COUNTY AND SEE IF THAT'S A POSSIBILITY. WE DON'T HAVE THAT INFORMATION SO THEY WOULD HAVE TO PROVIDE THAT TO US AND WE CAN TRY TO REACH OUT. WE COULD ALSO GET WITH COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR AND DO A CAMPAIGN TO LET THEM KNOW ON ELECTION DAY. THE THING IS TOO, IS THAT WE ALSO DON'T WANT TO CONFUSE PEOPLE FOR ELECTION DAY VERSUS EARLY VOTING, WHICH YOU CAN GO AND VOTE EVERYWHERE, SO WE WILL HAVE TO MAKE THAT MESSAGE VERY CLEAR. BUT IT WOULD PARTICULARLY BE PEOPLE OFFICE STONE BURKE PARKWAY BEFORE YOU GET TO 423. EVERYONE PAST 423, YOU'LL STILL GO TO SEVEN. ANYONE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF 423 WILL BE GOING TO FIRE FOUR. >> I THINK WE REALLY SHOULD MAKE A CONCERTED EFFORT WITH DENTON COUNTY TO FIGURE THAT OUT AND GET THAT NOTIFICATION OUT. MAYBE EVEN WORK THROUGH DEVELOPMENT SERVICES, AND CHRIS WHO HAS CONTACTS FOR ALL THE HOAS MAYBE WE CAN PUSH SOME INFORMATION OUT TO THOSE SPECIFIC HOAS AS WELL. BECAUSE I FORESEE PEOPLE THAT HAVE BEEN GOING TO FIRE SEVEN FOR YEARS, ALL OF A SUDDEN SHOWING UP AND BEING TOLD THEY CAN'T VOTE AND THAT'S NOT GOING TO LOOK GREAT FOR US IF WE HAVEN'T DONE ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING THAT WE CAN TO NOTIFY THEM. >> ABSOLUTELY. WE CAN MAKE THAT HAPPEN. >> OKAY. THANKS. >> THANK YOU BILL. COUNCIL, WANT TO LOOK FOR A MOTION? >> SO MOVED. >> MOTION BY BRIAN. >> SECOND. >> SECOND BY BILL. ALL IN FAVOR? >> AYE. >> MOTION PASSES 6-0. I HAVE 29 CONSIDER AN ACT UPON ADOPTION OF AN ORDINANCE, [29. Consider and act upon adoption of an Ordinance amending Ordinance No. 2023-02-08 (ordering a general election to be held on May 6, 2023 for the purpose of electing the Mayor and two members of the Frisco City Council (Place Nos. 5 and 6) and Ordinance No. 2023-02-10; providing for updated election day polling location information for voters in Denton County.

THANK YOU. WE'VE ALREADY DISCUSSED THIS ONE, SO LOOK FOR ANOTHER MOTION. >> I MOVE. >> MOTION BY ANGELIA. >> SECOND. >> SECOND BY JOHN. ALL IN FAVOR? >> AYE. >> MOTION PASSES 6-0. ITEM 30 IS CITY COUNCIL'S DISCUSSION WITH CITY STAFF CONCERNING [30. City Council discussion with City Staff concerning any actions required by City Staff as a result of any item on tonight's agenda.] ANY ACTIONS REQUIRED BY CITY STAFF AS A RESULT OF TONIGHT'S AGENDA, JUST ASSISTING INPUT ON HILLS OF KINGSWOOD. JOHN IS GOING TO GET US THOSE QUESTIONS ANSWERED AND ANYTHING ELSE NOTED. ITEM 31 IS GOVERNANCE. [31. Discussion on Governance Monitoring of present City Council Meeting.] >> I HAVE GOVERNANCE. WE WERE AMAZING. [LAUGHTER] MOST SATISFACTORY. I GUESS THERE'S A LETTER GRADE HERE THAT GIVES AN A. >> WELL, AFTER A FEW WEEKS, IT SEEMS LIKE WE'RE BEING HERE REALLY LATE THIS IS A NICE ONE TO END EARLY, SO I'LL LOOK FOR A MOTION TO ADJOURN. >> SO MOVED. >> MOTION BY JOHN, SECOND BY BILL. ALL IN FAVOR? >> AYE. >> 6-0. WE'RE ADJOURNED AT 7:47 P.M. >> WHAT? * This transcript was compiled from uncorrected Closed Captioning.
