THAT'S CLEAR DIRECTION FROM COUNCIL.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING HERE. APPRECIATE IT. DO WE HAVE ANY PROCLAMATIONS? THERE'S THE GENERAL. IS THAT THE ONLY ONE? AND WE HAVE ONE PROCLAMATION THIS EVENING FOR MISS SHENNA.

[Recognition for Shenna Lawless]

SHENNA HAS DONE SO MUCH. THIS IS IN, LIKE, FOUR POINT FONT.

IT'S A SPECIAL PROCLAMATION WHICH READS. WHEREAS FRISCO RESIDENT SHENNA LAWLESS HAS SERVED AS COMMANDER OF THE FRISCO VFW.

CORPORAL ROBERT RAY BROWN POST 8273. SINCE 2019, AS A MEMBER OF THE UNITED STATES ARMY, SHENNA SERVED IN IRAQ AND WAS AWARDED THE COMBAT ACTION BADGE. SHE IS ALSO THE FIRST FEMALE COMMANDER OF THE VFW POST IN ITS 57 YEAR HISTORY, AND WHEREAS A NATIVE OF PLANO, SHENNA MOVED TO FRISCO IN 2008 WITH HER HUSBAND, J.D., US ARMY VETERAN RETIRED. THEY ARE PROUD PARENTS TO THEIR TWINS, A SON AND DAUGHTER WHO KEEP THEM BUSY WITH SPORTS AND SCHOOL ACTIVITIES WHEN THEY ARE NOT HELPING THEIR PARENTS AT VETERAN EVENTS. AND WHEREAS SERVING IS A FAMILY AFFAIR FOR SHENNA, HER FATHER IS A VIETNAM WAR VETERAN AND SHENNA IS PASSIONATE ABOUT RECOGNIZED VETERANS WITH WELCOME HOME EVENTS AND COMMUNITY PARADES, AS WELL AS HONORING SERVICE MEMBERS KIA, POW AND MIA.

IN 2025, THE POST WAS RENAMED IN HONOR OF THE ONLY FRISCO RESIDENT KILLED IN ACTION IN VIETNAM.

ONE OF SHENNA'S MOST ESTEEMED PROJECT WAS BRINGING THE WALL THAT HEALS TO FRISCO, THE SOLE STOP IN TEXAS FOR THE VIETNAM WAR MEMORIAL REPLICA AND EXHIBIT IN 2024. IT WAS A $65,000 MULTIPLE DAY EVENT REQUIRING A COLLABORATION OF SPONSORS, THE CITY OF FRISCO, AND HUNDREDS OF VOLUNTEERS, AND IT WAS INCREDIBLY IMPACTFUL FOR VISITORS FROM AROUND THE REGION.

WHEREAS FROM FRISCO TO AUSTIN TO WASHINGTON, D.C., SHENNA HAS SERVED IN NUMEROUS LEADERSHIP ROLES, BUT NONE MORE FERVENTLY THAN VFW COMMANDER. UNDER HER LEADERSHIP, THE FRISCO VFW HAS FOR SIX CONSECUTIVE YEARS EARNED THE HIGHEST RECOGNITION AS ONE OF THE TOP POSTS IN THE UNITED STATES AND AS AN ELITE POST IN THE STATE OF TEXAS.

SINCE 2017, MEMBERSHIP HAS GROWN 257,000% FROM 96 TO 368 MEMBERS AND WITH 23% FEMALE COMBAT VETERANS. YEAH. THE POST HAS WORKED TO ENGAGE MORE VETERANS AND FAMILY MEMBERS BY ADDING ASSOCIATE CHARITABLE GROUPS, INCLUDING A MOTORCYCLE GROUP, AN AUXILIARY MILITARY ORDER O F THE COOTIES, AND TOGETHER, THE POST HAS RAISED AND DISPERSED OVER $50,000 IN DIRECT FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO VETERANS IN NEED.

GRANTED OVER 15,000 ANNUAL AND SCHOLARSHIPS TO DESERVING STUDENTS AND TEACHERS.

SPONSORED THE UNITED STATES VETERANS SERVICE DOGS ORGANIZATION.

GIFTED A CUSTOM WRAPPED SCHOOL BUS TO A LOCAL CHARTER SCHOOL, CONTRIBUTED FUNDS FOR VETERAN MONUMENT MONUMENT PROJECTS IN THE CITY, AND ENGAGED IN COUNTLESS SOCIAL, PATRIOTIC, AND VOLUNTEER EVENTS, AND WHEREAS THOUGH SHENNA RELINQUISHED HER COMMAND ON JUNE 7TH,

[00:15:10]

JUSTICE. ANNOUNCEMENTS, ANNOUNCEMENTS. THIS IS INCREDIBLE.

THANK YOU, MAYOR CHENEY. THANK YOU. COUNCIL. WE'VE HAD A GOOD RUN, HAVEN'T WE? WE DID, WE DID, AND I THIS IS THE SAFEST ROOM IN THE CITY.

TONIGHT WE'VE GOT FIELD GRADE OFFICERS, AMAZING ENLISTED PEOPLE, AND IT'S JUST BEEN A COMPLETE HONOR.

THESE THREE STANDING UP HERE ON THIS STAGE HAVE JUST BEEN AMAZING SUPPORT THROUGHOUT THIS WHOLE THING.

I REMEMBER ONE OF THE FAMILY FUNCTIONS I WENT TO.

THEY WERE LIKE, SHENNA, CAN WE TALK ABOUT SOMETHING OTHER THAN THE VFW? SO I REALLY LOVE THIS ORGANIZATION. I'VE MET SO MANY IMPECCABLE PEOPLE.

THE AMOUNT OF SUPPORT THAT I'VE HAD, ESPECIALLY FROM MY GIRLS THEY ARE AMAZING AS WELL AND I WAS COMPLETELY SURPRISED TO SEE THE GARDEN CLUB AND FRISCO LAKES AND BLUE STAR MOMS, AND WHO AM I MISSING? THE AMERICAN LEGION? YES, AND OF COURSE, THE FIRE CHIEF AND THE POLICE CHIEF.

I MEAN, THEY WOULDN'T KNOW HOW TO LAND A HUEY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CITY IF IT WEREN'T FOR US, RIGHT? SO, ANYWAYS THANK YOU, AND MY EXTENDED FAMILY AS WELL.

I ROPED THEM INTO THIS WHOLE THING. IT'S A FAMILY AFFAIR NOW, AND I'M JUST INCREDIBLY THANKFUL FOR THE ORGANIZATION THAT HAS PROVIDED SO MUCH TO ME, AND I JUST HOPE THAT I'VE BEEN ABLE TO IMPACT JUST THE SMALL PORTION OF WHAT THEY'VE INSTILLED IN ME.

SO THANK YOU FOR TRUSTING ME. THANK YOU FOR ELECTING ME, AND THE FACT THAT WE HAVE COMMANDER AFTER COMMANDER AFTER COMMANDER IN HERE IS JUST LIKE, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR LAYING THE FOUNDATION FOR SOMEONE LIKE ME TO SERVE.

I MEAN, YOU'VE GOT CARLOS LASCANO, TIM NELSON, JASON HARMON, YOU GOT REGGIE WILLIAMS. I COULD GO ON AND ON, BUT ANYWAYS, I GOT TO GO AND THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE, AND IF ANYBODY WANTS TO JOIN US AFTER, WE'LL BE AT DERBYSHIRE FOR DRINKS.

HAS CERTAINLY EXEMPLIFIED EVERYTHING THAT WE WANT IN FRISCO WHEN WE TALK ABOUT OUR VETERANS.

MAYOR'S GOAL OF MAKING FRISCO BOTH VETERAN READY AND VETERAN FRIENDLY, AND SHENNA AND HER ENTIRE FAMILY, J.D. GETS A LOT OF CREDIT. IT STARTED UP OUR MOTORCYCLE GROUP WITHIN THE VFW, WHICH WE DIDN'T HAVE BEFORE.

YOU GUYS RAISED THE MEMBERSHIP THROUGH THE ROOF.

PUT THE FUN BACK IN. FUNDRAISING BLEW THE DOORS OFF OF EVERY EVENT THAT WE SET OUT, AND SHENNA WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERY VETERAN WAS INVITED AND THEIR FAMILIES AND ANYONE ELSE IN THE COMMUNITY THAT WANTED TO LEARN MORE ABOUT VETERANS AND OUR US MILITARY.

THE OUTREACH THAT SHE HAS DONE, THE NUMBER OF VETERANS THAT SHE'S BROUGHT INTO THE ORGANIZATION, BOTH THE VFW AND THE AMERICAN LEGION, AND OF COURSE, EFAC AND OUR EFFORTS HAVE GROWN AND JUST THE INCREDIBLE WORK THAT HAS BEEN AN INSPIRATION ON AUGUST 7TH, NATIONAL PURPLE HEART DAY, ON VIETNAM VETERANS DAY, AND NOT JUST THANKING OUR VETERANS FOR THEIR SERVICE, BUT WELCOMING THEM HOME AT THE SAME TIME. THEY DIDN'T GET THE WELCOME HOME THAT THE REST OF US DID, AND REMEMBERING THAT AND RECOGNIZING THAT AND ALWAYS PUTTING EVERYONE ELSE FIRST, AND SHENNA, TONIGHT, THIS IS YOUR NIGHT. YOU ARE FIRST. YOU ARE NUMBER ONE.

YOU WILL BE OUR LEGENDARY POST COMMANDER FOR A VERY, VERY LONG TIME.

ON BEHALF OF THE AMERICAN LEGION AND THE VFW MEMBERS GATHERED HERE.

THANK YOU.

[00:20:06]

WAIT A SECOND. THERE YOU GO. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT.

ONE MORE TIME.

GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. THANK YOU AGAIN FOR YOUR INPUT AND FEEDBACK.

TODAY AT WORK SESSION ON OUR SPORTS CITY USA BRANDING.

WE APPRECIATE THAT AND LOOK FORWARD TO THE NEXT STEPS.

YOU HAVE MY MAY REPORT. I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. ALL RIGHT.

YOU WANT TO SPEAK? JUST 30S REALLY QUICKLY ABOUT WHAT WE TALKED ABOUT THIS AFTERNOON? YES. SO WE HAVE BEEN WE'VE HAD THE SPORT CITY USA SINCE LIKE 2017, BUT WE'VE NEVER REALLY HAD A BRAND IN BEHIND IT AND A TAGLINE AND SUCH.

SO WE'VE GONE THROUGH A SIMILAR PROCESS THAT WE DID WITH THE RAIL DISTRICT IN DISCOVERY, WITH SURVEYS, AND WITH OUR SPORTS COMMUNITY, AND SO TODAY WE LOOKED AT THE VOICE AND TONE AND LOOKED AT TWO DIFFERENT TAGLINES.

I'M PROBABLY GOING TO OH MY GOSH, I'M DRAWING A BLANK ON WHAT THEY ARE.

WE'RE GREATNESS GROWS, AND THEN EVERY GAME, EVERY ATHLETE ATHLETE.

SO THE STAKEHOLDER COMMITTEE AND COUNCIL AND A LOT OF OTHER GROUPS HAVE DEFINITELY LOOKED AT WHERE GREATNESS GROWS, AND SO WE'RE GOING TO RUN WITH THAT AND HOPEFULLY COME BACK WITH SOME GREAT NEW CONCEPTS IN ABOUT ANOTHER MONTH.

ALL RIGHT. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? COUNCIL? NO. NO QUESTIONS, BUT I WANT TO THANK YOU AND RECOGNIZE YOU AND YOUR TEAM FOR THE WORK THAT YOU GUYS DID FOR THE FLORIDA A&M NATIONAL CONFERENCE. I HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO DO GREETINGS FOR THEM, AND THEY WERE OVERWHELMINGLY COMPLIMENTARY OF THE SUPPORT THAT THEY RECEIVED FROM THE CITY OF FRISCO IN HELPING THEM NOT ONLY LOCATE THE VENUE, BUT OTHER THINGS TO DO TO FOR THEM TO ENJOY WHILE THEY WERE IN THE CITY.

SO COMPLIMENTS TO CHUCK AND LISA ON YOUR TEAM FOR THE WORK THAT THEY DID, AND I KNOW THAT NOT ONLY DID THEY DO A GREAT JOB IN ENSURING THAT THEY HAD APPROPRIATE VENUE AND THE SETTING WAS APPROPRIATE, BUT EVEN JUST DOWN TO THE WELCOME VIDEO THAT WAS SENT TO THEM ON BEHALF OF THE CITY OF FRISCO.

SO YOU GUYS REALLY PUT TOGETHER JUST A JUST A VERY WELL CRAFTED CONFERENCE.

SO THANK YOU FOR THE WORK THAT YOU DO TO BRING THOSE KIND OF CONFERENCES TO FRISCO.

THANK YOU SO MUCH. IT WAS A BIG WIN FOR THE TEAM TO GET THAT HERE, AND THEN LISA AND CHUCK ALWAYS DO AN OUTSTANDING JOB IN IN MAKING THE EXPERIENCE MORE THAN THEY EXPECTED, SO HOPEFULLY WE'LL GET THEM BACK.

CHIEF, NO QUESTIONS, BUT I'M CURIOUS JUST FOR THE PUBLIC, THAT MAY NOT GET A CHANCE TO GO TO THE GRAND OPENING. ANY SPECIFIC BELLS AND WHISTLES YOU WANT TO CALL OUT? I KNOW THAT, YOU KNOW, WE SOMETIMES TAKE FOR GRANTED THE TECHNOLOGY AND ALL THE AMENITIES THAT ARE WITHIN OUR FIRE STATION.

THAT'S WORLD CLASS, BUT ANYTHING YOU WANT TO HIGHLIGHT, JUST TO KIND OF LET THE PUBLIC KNOW WHAT THE INVESTMENT THAT WE MADE IN THIS NEW FACILITY.

I HAVE AN ENGINE THAT WE PLACED IN SERVICE HERE.

ALL RIGHT. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? OKAY. ITEM TEN IS OUR POLICE DEPARTMENT REPORT.

[Police Department's crime and statistics reports for the month of May 2025.]

THIS IS A CLASS WE'RE PUTTING ON ON THE 28TH.

CIVILIAN RESPONSE TO ACTIVE SHOOTER EVENTS. THIS IS FROM THE ALERT.

THE FOLKS THAT TEACH ALERT. WE DIDN'T THINK THAT ALERT WAS A CURRICULUM THAT JUST POLICE OFFICERS NEEDED TO KNOW, SO WE WANTED TO OPEN SOMETHING UP TO THE PUBLIC. THIS IS PART OF A REGIONAL EFFORT THAT IS TAKING PLACE ACROSS CITIES, ALL ACROSS THE METROPLEX, AND SO WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYBODY WAS AWARE OF THAT.

THAT'S ON THE 28TH HERE IN COUNCIL CHAMBERS AT 1:00, AND THEN WE HAVE OUR FIRST BASIC PEACE OFFICER ACADEMY GRADUATION.

SEEMS LIKE THEY JUST STARTED, BUT IT'S TIME FOR THEM TO GRADUATE ON JULY THE 3RD THAT'S TAKING PLACE ON OR AT THE CONFERENCE CENTER AT COLLIN COLLEGE HERE IN FRISCO, AND THAT TAKES PLACE AT 2:00 ON JULY 3RD.

THE GATES WILL OPEN AT 4 P.M.

Zoned Planned Development-280. Neighborhood #3, #52, and #53. Zoning Case No. Z25-0002. Applicant: Kimley-Horn and Associates. (Development Services/JH)]

THE SAME ZONE PLAN DEVELOPMENT 2 80, NEIGHBORHOOD NUMBER THREE, NUMBER 52, AND NUMBER 53.

ZONING CASE NUMBER Z25-0002. APPLICANT IS KIMLEY-HORN AND ASSOCIATES, AND BEFORE WE START THIS ITEM SO I HAVE ONGOING CLIENT WORK THAT MAY BE IMPACTED, AND SO I HAVE FILLED MY CONFLICT PAPERWORK WITH THE CITY SECRETARY AND WILL RECUSE MYSELF, AND MR. KEATING LIVES WITHIN THE BOUNDARIES, AND SO HE IS ALSO FILLED OUT HIS REQUIRED PAPERWORK AND WILL RECUSE HIMSELF FROM THE ITEM, AND SO WE'LL ALLOW BILL TO BE MAYOR ONE LAST TIME.

THANKS, JEFF. JOHN, WE'LL TURN IT OVER TO YOU.

JOHN LAUTNER, DIRECTOR OF DEVELOPMENT SERVICES.

TO DO A BRIEF OVERVIEW. I WAS TALKING TO ANGELIA LAST NIGHT AND SOME TAILORING THE POSITION THIS PRESENTATION TO FOCUS ON WHAT IS CHANGING WHEN THIS PLAN DEVELOPMENT WAS CREATED, IT WAS WITH THE UNDERSTANDING BASED ON ITS SIZE THAT IT WOULD BE MODIFIED OVER TIME, AND SO THAT IS WHAT'S HAPPENING HERE. SO BEFORE THIS CASE WAS SUBMITTED AND STARTED TO GO THROUGH THE PROCESS, IT WAS A COLLABORATIVE EFFORT BETWEEN THE CITY AND FEMA GROUP TO WORK ON THESE CHANGES.

SO ALL THE DEPARTMENTS INVOLVED IN DEVELOPMENT REVIEW FROM PARKS AND ENGINEERING AND SO FORTH WERE INVOLVED IN THE DISCUSSIONS, AND SO WE CAME TO A RESOLUTION, AND THEN THEY SUBMITTED THE ZONING CASE AND THAT.

HELPS TO MOVE THINGS FORWARD MORE QUICKLY. SO I WANT TO GO OVER A FEW THINGS.

WHAT THE PD REQUIRES NOW AND WHAT IS CHANGING AND NOT CHANGING.

NUMBER ONE, THE NUMBER OF RESIDENTIAL UNITS. WHEN THIS WAS FIRST APPROVED, IT WAS A MAXIMUM OF 5000 SINGLE FAMILY HOMES, 8500 URBAN LIVING OR MULTIPLEX BUILDINGS. THAT IS NOT CHANGING IN THIS REQUEST THAT REMAINS THE SAME.

THE NUMBER OF URBAN LIVING AND MULTIPLEX PERMITTED UNITS WITHOUT [INAUDIBLE] 2000 THAT IS BEING BUMPED UP TO 2500. AGAIN, THE MAXIMUM NUMBER DOES NOT CHANGE WITH THE APPROVAL OF UNIVERSAL.

[INAUDIBLE] ASKED ABOUT [INAUDIBLE] ON THAT BASED ON THE HOTEL AND SO FORTH.

WE HAVE WORKED ON THAT OVER A YEAR AGO, AND WE CAME TO A RESOLUTION OF 1325 UNITS WOULD COUNT AS A RESULT OF UNIVERSAL, BUT AGAIN, IT'S NOT CHANGING THE MAXIMUM NUMBER THAT REMAINS THE SAME.

THE NUMBER OF TOWNHOMES CURRENTLY IS 2730. THEY ARE PROPOSING TO INCREASE THAT BY 175.

WITHIN THIS PLAN DEVELOPMENT, THERE'S A MAXIMUM DENSITY FOR EACH DISTRICT THAT IS NOT CHANGING IN THE MAXIMUM NUMBER OF UNITS.

MULTIFAMILY AS WELL AS SINGLE FAMILY IS NOT CHANGING.

THAT REMAINS THE SAME, AND THEN THERE'S ABOUT THE NUMBER OF PARKS.

THERE WAS DISCUSSION AT THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION THAT THE NUMBER OF PARKS WAS BEING REDUCED.

THAT IS NOT CORRECT. CURRENTLY, THE PLAN DEVELOPMENT SAYS A MINIMUM OF 12 PARKS, 72 ACRES.

WHAT'S BEFORE YOU TONIGHT IS A MINIMUM OF EIGHT PARKS.

SO THAT MEANS THEY STILL COULD DO 12. THEY COULD DO 14.

THAT'S SOMETHING WILL BE DETERMINED AS THEY SUBMIT EACH DEVELOPMENT PHASE, AS IT GOES THROUGH ALL THE DEVELOPMENT REVIEW COMMITTEE TO DETERMINE WHAT THAT IS, BUT THE NUMBER OF PARKLAND REMAINS UNCHANGED AT 72 ACRES, AND ON TOP OF THAT THERE'S AN OPEN SPACE REQUIREMENT.

SO IT'S A MINIMUM OF 12% OPEN SPACE SPREAD THROUGHOUT, AND THAT'S ABOUT 260 ACRES, JUST SHY OF 260 ACRES, NOT INCLUDING PARKS, WHICH BRINGS IT TO ABOUT 330 ACRES.

SO THIS IS ABOUT THE TOWNHOMES. I'VE COVERED THAT THE UNITS OTHER CHANGES HAS TAKEN PLACE WHEN THIS PLAN DEVELOPMENT WAS LAST CHANGED. PGA WAS ROCK HILL ROAD. THEY MADE SEVERAL OF THOSE ROAD CHANGES.

SO KEEPING THE EXHIBITS UP TO DATE. SO THOSE ARE MINOR CHANGES ON THIS PARTICULAR.

THIS IS UNIVERSITY VILLAGE THAT'S ON THE FAR EAST SIDE.

[00:35:01]

SO WE'RE SUPPORTIVE OF BUMPING THAT WHERE YOU CAN DO RESIDENTIAL.

THIS IS ABOUT THE PARKS. AGAIN THE MINIMUM ACREAGE REMAINS THE SAME.

NO CHANGES. THIS EXHIBIT SHOWS PROPOSED NEIGHBORHOOD PARKS.

THERE'S BEEN SOME CHANGES. I WILL MENTION THAT THIS IS THE PRESERVE.

AT ONE TIME, A NEIGHBORHOOD PARK WAS PROPOSED THERE, BUT ONCE THAT WENT TO A GATED COMMUNITY, THE PUBLIC PARK HAS TO COME OUT BECAUSE THE PUBLIC DOESN'T HAVE ACCESS TO IT.

THERE WAS ALSO A NEIGHBORHOOD PARK PROPOSED ON UNIVERSAL THAT CAME OUT BECAUSE UNIVERSAL, YOU GOT TO HAVE A TICKET TO GET INSIDE.

SO IT'S NOT FOR THE PUBLIC, BUT ALSO PART OF THIS, AND I GOT THIS REQUIREMENTS FOR DIFFERENT TYPES OF OPEN SPACES WHERE THE LOTS HAVE TO BE ADJACENT TO LIKE PARKS, PRIMARY OPEN SPACE, WHICH IS 10,000FT², MINIMUM, SECONDARY OPEN SPACE, WHICH IS 5000FT², MINIMUM, SUPER PRIMARY OPEN SPACE, WHICH IS A MINIMUM OF 20,000FT², BUT LOTS NEED TO BE WITHIN A CERTAIN DISTANCE OF EACH OF THOSE PARKS. LIKE, FOR INSTANCE, PRIMARY OPEN SPACE.

LOTS NEED TO BE WITHIN 900FT, SECONDARY WITHIN 550FT.

SO THAT'S LESS THAN A LENGTH OF. A CUL DE SAC IN SUPER PRIMARY IS 2250.

SO I WANT TO JUMP TO THIS EXHIBIT. LET ME GIVE YOU AN IDEA, AND THIS IS SOMETHING THAT STAFF AND THE APPLICANT. THIS GIVES YOU A LITTLE IDEA ABOUT MAKING SURE LOTS ARE MEETING THESE REQUIREMENTS.

SO THIS GIVES YOU A SORT OF LIKE A CONVOLUTED IDEA, BUT THIS IS WHAT STAFF IS REVIEWING TO MAKE SURE WHEN A DEVELOPMENT PLAN IS SUBMITTED THEY'RE FALLING AND MEETING THESE REQUIREMENTS, AND WITH THAT I'LL CONCLUDE. SO THAT'S A BRIEF OVERVIEW OF THE CHANGES COUNCIL.

THIS IS A PUBLIC HEARING. DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS BEFORE WE OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING. NONE BEFORE PUBLIC HEARING, BUT I DO HAVE SOME QUESTIONS AFTER PUBLIC HEARING FOR YOU, JOHN. OKAY.

IN THAT CASE, DO WE HAVE A MOTION TO OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING TO OPEN PUBLIC HEARING? SECOND, ALL IN FAVOR? AYE. OKAY. PUBLIC HEARING IS NOW OPEN.

DO WE HAVE ANYBODY TO SPEAK FOR OR AGAINST THIS ITEM? SEEING NONE. MOVE TO CLOSE. SECOND. OKAY. WE HAVE A MOTION TO CLOSE.

ALL IN FAVOR? AYE. ANY OPPOSED? OKAY. COUNCIL, WHAT QUESTIONS DO YOU HAVE? I HAVE ONE QUESTION. JUST FOR CLARIFICATION, CAN YOU EXPLAIN HOW WE'RE HANDLING THE [INAUDIBLE] FOR UNIVERSAL? YES, FOR UNIVERSAL. IT'S BASED ON THE HOTEL AND ACCESSORY WITH THAT, AND SO WE CAME TO THE CONCLUSION OF THIS IS WHAT STAFF PROPOSED, AND SO WES PROPOSED THAT TO THE CITY TO [INAUDIBLE].

SO IT'S 1325 UNITS FOR THE URN UPS BECAUSE UNIVERSAL WHEN THIS PD WAS CREATED, THERE WAS NO CONCEPT FOR UNIVERSAL. SO THIS IS SOMETHING THAT CAME OUT OF THE BLUE ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO, AND SO FEMA ASKED ABOUT HOW ABOUT DOING EARNOUTS BASED ON THAT, AND SO WE HAD DIALOG AND WE AGREED WITH HIM. JUST TO CLARIFY AS WELL, THE BEFORE THE UNIVERSAL WAS CONTEMPLATED, THE USES THAT WERE ON THIS LAND ALREADY CALLED FOR EARN UP POTENTIAL. SO IT WAS COMMERCIAL, AND A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF COMMERCIAL SPACE WOULD EARN THEM CERTAIN AMOUNTS OF MULTIFAMILY UNITS, AND SO FOLLOWING THAT LOGIC, WE JUST APPLIED IT TO WHAT WAS GOING ON HERE WITH THE NEW USE VERSUS THE OLD USE.

YEAH, AND BASED ON THAT IS WHAT WAS JUST STATED.

THIS IS LESS IN [INAUDIBLE] THAN PROBABLY WHAT THEY WOULD HAVE IF IT WAS UNDER A DIFFERENT DEVELOPMENT.

SO , JOHN, JUST FOR PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE, BECAUSE AGAIN, I THINK, YOU KNOW, WHEN PEOPLE HEAR WE'RE GOING FROM 2000 UNITS TO 2500 UNITS, IT COULD BE MISINTERPRETED AS WE ARE INCREASING DENSITY, AND SO I JUST I THINK JUST FOR CLARIFICATION, WE'RE INCREASING THE NUMBER OF UNITS BEFORE THE EARN UP IS APPLIED.

WE'RE NOT INCREASING DENSITY CAPS AT ALL WITH ANY OF THIS PROPOSAL.

CORRECT. COUNCIL. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? GOOD. DO WE HAVE A MOTION? THEN MOVE TO APPROVE. ITEM 23. SECOND.

[00:40:03]

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. BILL. NICE WORK. I TRY.

[Consider and act upon approval of a Façade Plan for a hotel (Midtown East, Block A, Lot 1 - Universal Kids) on the northeast corner of Dallas Parkway and Panther Creek Parkway. Zoned Planned Development-280. Neighborhood #53.   Façade Plan Case No. FACP24-0132. Applicant: Gensler. (Development Services/JH)]

CASE NUMBER FACP24-0132. APPLICANT. GENSLER. YEAH.

MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL, WHEN THE SUP WAS APPROVED FOR UNIVERSAL WITHIN THE SUP WAS ABOUT COUNCIL APPROVING THE FACADE PLANS, AND YOU HAD APPROVED A FACADE PLAN BACK ON DECEMBER 3RD.

SINCE THEN, UNIVERSAL IS MAKING SOME MODIFICATIONS TO THE MURALS AND THEREFORE IS COMING BACK BEFORE YOU TO TAKE A LOOK, AND SO I'M GOING TO TURN THIS OVER TO JOHN MCFARLAND TO GO OVER THE SPECIFICS OF THE MURALS.

BUT THEY DO COMPLY WITH THE SIGNED ORDINANCE AND ALL OF THAT.

SO THEY ARE NO CONFLICT. LET ME BRING THIS UP FOR YOU.

I DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU WANT TO GO. SO I'LL BRING UP THE MURALS.

I CAN TALK TO ANYONE. OKAY. OKAY. THANK YOU. JOHN.

OKAY. MR. MAYOR, MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL STAFF.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. WHEN WE CAME BEFORE YOU PREVIOUSLY TO GET THE FACADE APPROVED FOR THE HOTEL, WE HAD REDACTED THE MURALS IN THAT SECTION COMPLETELY BECAUSE WE HAD NOT RELEASED OUR IPS FOR THE RESORT, AND THAT'S SOMETHING WE HOLD VERY JEALOUSLY, AND THAT MAKES FOR ANOTHER MEDIUM MOMENT TO BE ABLE TO RELEASE THE IPS, AND AS YOU KNOW, WE HAVE NOW RELEASED THEM, SO WE'RE COMING BACK.

NO SURPRISE TO LAY OUT WHAT IS GOING TO BE IN THOSE MURALS.

WE HAVE MADE THEM VERY ARTISTIC, AS YOU CAN SEE.

SO IT KIND OF SETS IT APART FROM EVERYTHING ELSE, AND IT TAKES YOU ON A COLOR JOURNEY PER SE, BUT ONE THAT WE BELIEVE THAT THE COMMUNITY HAS ACCEPTED SLIGHTLY TONED DOWN PALETTE FROM WHAT WHERE WE HAD STARTED DUE TO MANY OF THE FEEDBACK FROM YOU AND THE NEIGHBORS, AND WE'RE CREATING THIS FEEL, THIS SENSE OF OF ARRIVAL TO THE RESORT.

YOU SEE IT, YOU COME INTO THE RESORT, IT'S STARTING TO TAKE SHAPE.

YOU WALK THROUGH THE HOTEL, YOU SEE THESE AMAZING MURALS AS YOU APPROACH, AND IT GIVES YOU THAT START OF THAT JOURNEY.

YOU'VE ARRIVED, AND IT'S THAT STATEMENT OF CREATIVITY, UNBRIDLED CREATIVITY FOR THE NEXT GENERATION THAT WE WANT TO.

SO SCREAM AS YOU ENTER OUR RESORT. SO WE THINK WE'VE ACCOMPLISHED THIS AS JOHN SAID, AND I'LL PROBABLY MESS THIS UP, I APOLOGIZE ABOUT THAT KIND OF GIVES YOU THE LAYOUT.

I BELIEVE THE APPROVAL IS WRITTEN IN A WAY THAT THE BACK TWO THAT FACE THE PARK WILL STAY THE SAME, BUT WE WILL WORK WITH THE NEIGHBORS AND WITH MR. [INAUDIBLE] TO SEE WHAT THE FRONT ONES CAN BE SWITCHED BACK AND FORTH DEPENDING UPON WHAT THE NEIGHBORS IN COPPERHILL WOULD LIKE TO BLEND IN, BUT IT GIVES YOU AN IDEA OF THE, THE ARTISTIC NATURE OF HOW WE'VE HANDLED OUR IP.

AGAIN, INTENTIONAL. SO IT'S NOT SCREAMING BILLBOARD, NOT SCREAMING SIGN.

IT'S SCREAMING ARTISTIC. YOU WANT THAT CREATIVITY IN EVERYTHING WE DO.

SO YOU CAN SEE I'LL RUN THROUGH THEM QUICKLY.

YOU'VE SEEN THEM, AND IT'S MEANT TO BE AGAIN, A FUN PLACE THAT BLENDS IN WITH THE FEEL AND THE TEXTURE OF THE RESORT ITSELF, AND I DO SAY THANK YOU. IF YOU DRIVE BY, YOU'LL SEE SOME OF THE TONES AND PALETTE GOING UP ON THE HOTEL TODAY, AND YOUR CITY MANAGER, WES AND BEN, YOUR ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER, CAME AND WALKED THE SITE WITH US, AND IT'S STARTING TO TAKE SHAPE. SOMETHING WE'RE GOING TO ALL BE PROUD OF WHEN WE'RE DONE.

SO I THANK YOU. I WON'T HOLD ANYMORE, BUT GLAD TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS, AND AS ALWAYS, THANK YOU, MR. MAYOR AND COUNCIL APPRECIATE EVERYTHING. ALL RIGHT.

THANK YOU. COUNCIL. WHAT QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS DO YOU HAVE? JOHN, CAN YOU JUST SPEAK TO THE SITE VIEW STUDY THAT YOU GUYS DID, JUST SO THE PUBLIC KNOWS THE LENGTH THAT WE'VE GONE TO ENSURE THAT WE'VE LOOKED INTO THIS AND, AND THE VISIBILITY OF THIS.

YEAH, WE DID THIS INTENTIONALLY. SO AS WE UNDERSTAND THE, THE, THE LANDSCAPE AND THE IMPACT OF THE BUILDINGS THAT WILL HAVE ON SITE VERSUS THE FALLOFF OF THE PROPERTY, OF WHAT YOU WILL SEE FROM EVEN ALL THE WAY OVER.

AS YOU CAN SEE TO THE FUTURE RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY ACROSS UNIVERSAL, TO WHAT THE COBB HILL FOLKS WILL SEE AS WELL.

WE HAD SEEN THAT IN PREVIOUS RENDERINGS WHERE I HAD MOCKED THAT UP FOR THEM.

WE'VE WORKED WITH MR. [INAUDIBLE], AND WE KNOW THAT DEPENDING UPON SOME OF THE SIZE OF FACILITIES HE BUILDS ACROSS,

[00:45:05]

SO THAT IS INTENDED TO GIVE YOU THE COMFORT THAT REALLY THIS IS MEANT TO BE A VERY LOW IMPACT, AND THE IMPACT IS INTENDED FOR OUR GUESTS TO SET THE JOURNEY CORRECT.

THANK YOU FOR THE QUESTION. ALL RIGHT. HOW ARE YOU DOING ON TIMELINE FOR CONSTRUCTION AND OPENING DATE? ANY WONDERFUL DEVELOPMENT, YOU ALWAYS WANT TO HESITATE BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT DONE UNTIL YOU'RE DONE.

BUT I WILL TELL YOU I UNDERSTAND WE'VE BEEN PROMISED BY THE MAYOR AND YOU ALL THAT THERE WILL BE NO MORE ICE STORMS. NO MORE RAINSTORMS, BUT NO, WE'RE DOING GREAT.

WE MAY SEE A COUPLE EXTRA CREWS. COME ON. JUST TO MAKE SURE WE STAY AHEAD OF IT, BUT YOUR STAFF GAVE US A DEADLINE, AND WE WILL MEET THAT DEADLINE. PERFECT. THANK YOU.

ANYTHING ELSE? ALL RIGHT. I'LL LOOK FOR A MOTION.

MOVE TO APPROVE. ITEM 24. MOTION BY BILL. SECOND.

SECOND BY TAMMY. ALL IN FAVOR? AYE. THAT PASSES SIX ZERO.

THANK YOU. ITEM 25 IS. CONSIDER AND ACT UPON THE ADOPTION OF AN ORDINANCE CANVASSING THE ELECTION RETURNS OF THE JUNE 7TH SPECIAL RUNOFF ELECTION FOR THE PURPOSE OF ELECTING

[CITIZEN INPUT (to begin approximately at 6:30 p.m.)]

JEFF DAVIS 235 FOUNTAIN GLEN LANE, FRISCO, TEXAS.

AFRAID OF PUBLIC SPEAKING? THANK YOU. MAYOR, COUNCIL FOR ALL YOUR INCREDIBLE EFFORTS.

VOLUNTEER HERE FOR OUR CITY AND STAFF. YOU PUTTING UP WITH THEM? THANK YOU, AND FOR BILL AND TAMMY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE.

YEARS AGO, THE CITY BOUGHT LAND JUST NORTH OF PANTHER CREEK.

IT WAS TO BE A FUTURE SPORTS FIELD. KIND OF LIKE WARREN.

WITH THE LAND NOT IN USE. JED DOZIER FROM PARKS AND REC MET ME ON SITE, AND WE DID SOME SCOUTING AROUND.

HE WANTED TO KNOW MY INPUT ABOUT WHAT IT WOULD LOOK LIKE FOR A MOUNTAIN BIKE OR A HIKING TRAIL IN THE FUTURE.

MORE TALKS WITH DUDLEY AND RICK FROM PARK STAFF, AND IT LOOKED TO BE MOVING FORWARD.

IT WAS OVER 100 ACRES OF LAND THAT IT WAS HUGE.

IT WAS MENTIONED THAT THE FRISCO WAS ALSO OWNING AND PURCHASING LAND TO THE NORTH OF THAT SECTION TO WHERE THE FUTURE MOUNTAIN BIKE HOME MIGHT, MIGHT GO, BUT THEN ENTER THE PGA, AND THAT CHANGED JUST A LITTLE BIT, BUT I'M NOT HERE TO SPEAK ABOUT THAT AT ALL. WE'VE BEEN LIVING HERE SINCE 2003 AND BEFORE ALL THE CONCRETE AND THE CRANES, THERE WERE CORNFIELDS, COWS AND LONGHORNS. TO QUOTE A FEW OF MY DAUGHTERS AS WE WERE DRIVING TO AND FROM SPARKS ELEMENTARY COWS.

WHEN YOU'RE DRIVING INTO THE EAST SIDE OF THE FRISCO 7535, THE CORNER OF BRICKMAN RANCH, PRESTON AND MAIN IS ALWAYS A FAVORITE FOR OURS AND EVERYONE WITH ALL THE LONGHORNS AND COWS AND SO MY EARS PERKED UP DURING THIS RECENT ELECTION, WHERE THE CITY WAS OFFERING TO OFFER SOME LAND FOR THE ARTS COMMUNITY, MAYBE SOME LAND FOR THE PRAIRIE RESTORATION AND THE OUTDOOR FOLKS.

SO OUR NEIGHBOR IN MCKINNEY, TEXAS, RECEIVED A GRANT OF LAND FROM A FAMILY NAMED IRWIN IN 1971.

IT WAS 214 ACRES, WITH AN AGREEMENT FOR IT TO ALWAYS BE A PARK.

NOW, I'M NOT SAYING THAT THE BRICKMAN FAMILY WOULD DONATE LAND TO US LIKE THIS, BUT COULD YOU JUST IMAGINE IF WE HAD 100, 150 OR 200 ACRES RIGHT THERE ON THAT CORNER. KEPT LONGHORNS, KEPT COWS.

MAYBE EVEN HAD REMOTE CAMPING. HAD WALK SITES.

RESTORATION OF PRAIRIE LANDS. THAT WOULD BE A LEGACY AND SOMETHING TO VERY MUCH HOLD YOUR HAT ON.

SO THANK YOU FOR YOUR ALLOWING MY TIME. THANK YOU.

NEXT WE HAVE MARK PALASCIANO. ALL RIGHT

[00:50:01]

I'M GOING TO EXPOSE T-MOBILE ONE. YOU KNOW, THEY DIDN'T EVEN DID A POST ON SOCIAL MEDIA ON MEMORIAL DAY, BUT THEY WERE SURELY PROUD OF PROMOTING KAI CENAT STREAMER UNIVERSITY THAT PROMOTES, YOU KNOW, VIOLENT GANG DEGENERACY, BUT YOU KNOW, WE CAN'T PROMOTE FOR MEMORIAL DAY.

SOFTBANK LAST NIGHT THEY DUMPED $5 BILLION WORTH OF STOCK.

SO YOU KNOW SOFTBANK MAKES A DEAL OUT OF NOWHERE AND DUMPS $5 BILLION WORTH OF STOCK OUT OF T-MOBILE.

OF COURSE, AS YOU KNOW, WAR IS KIND OF GASSING UP WITH IRAN AND ISRAEL.

SO IF THE STOCK MARKET TAKES A DIP THEN IT'S PRETTY OBVIOUS THESE GUYS HAD AN INSIDE SOURCE, RIGHT? BUT SINCE IT'S PRIDE MONTH, I WANTED TO COME HERE AND READ A LITTLE BIT FROM T-MOBILE'S GENDER TRANSITION GUIDE.

SO IT'S A FOUR PAGE INTERNAL DOCUMENT THAT I HAVE RIGHT HERE, AND I'M JUST GOING TO READ SOME OF IT.

THIS THE GOAL FOR THIS DOCUMENT IS HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGERS AND MANAGERS WILL USE THIS FOR AN EMPLOYEE IF THEY'RE CHANGING GENDERS IN THE WORKPLACE. SO IF A T-MOBILE EMPLOYEE WANTS TO CHANGE FROM A BOY TO A GIRL OR A GIRL TO A BOY.

THERE'S A WHOLE DOCUMENT TELLING THEM HOW TO HELP THE EMPLOYEE MEET WITH THE TRANSITIONING EMPLOYEE FIRST.

AFFIRM SUPPORT FOR THE EMPLOYEE AND ASK HOW YOU CAN BEST ASSIST THEM DURING THEIR TRANSITION.

ASK IF IF HOW THE TRANSITIONING EMPLOYEE WISHES TO INFORM THEIR MANAGER.

YEAH. THIS IS REMEMBER THIS IS A T-MOBILE MANAGER HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGER TALKING TO AN EMPLOYEE.

ASK IF THE TRANSITIONING EMPLOYEE WANTS TO INFORM THEIR COWORKERS.

ASK IF THE EMPLOYEE IS CONSIDERING A NAME CHANGE.

IF YES, ASK WHAT NAME AND PRONOUN THE INDIVIDUAL WILL USE AND WHEN.

THE INDIVIDUAL WILL WANT YOU TO BEGIN USING THEIR NEW PRONOUN.

IF THE INDIVIDUAL IS MARRIED OR PARTNERED, ASK HOW YOU SHOULD REFER TO THE SPOUSE PARTNER THROUGHOUT THE TRANSITION, AND HERE'S ANOTHER SECTION. DEVELOP A PLAN. SO THE HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGER OR THE MANAGER SITTING DOWN WITH THE EMPLOYEE AND THEY WANT THEY DISCUSS THE ANTICIPATED TIMELINE, AND THEN THEY DISCUSS HOW AND WHEN YOU WANT TO INFORM THE CERTAIN STAKEHOLDERS.

LET ME GO TO PAGE TWO ON CREATIVE SUPPORT PLAN.

SO ON CREATIVE SUPPORT PLAN YOU HAVE THE DIRECT MANAGER INCLUDED.

YOU HAVE A MEMBER OF THE DIVERSITY AND INCLUSION STAFF INCLUDED, AND OTHER SUPPORTIVE COWORKERS.

YOU DEVELOP A STAKEHOLDER LIST. YOU CREATE A TIMELINE.

YOU CREATE A COMMUNICATION TIMELINE, AND THEN THE REAL FUN BEGINS ON THE DAY OF THE ANNOUNCEMENT.

BECAUSE THAT'S WHEN YOU EXPLAIN THAT ON THE TRANSITION DAY, THE INDIVIDUAL WILL PRESENT THEMSELVES CONSISTENTLY, CONSISTENTLY WITH THEIR GENDER IDENTITY AND SHOULD BE TREATED AS SUCH.

FOR EXAMPLE, THE NEW NAME AND NEW PRONOUN SHOULD BE USED.

SO IF BOB HE HIM TURNS INTO BOBBY SHE HER, THEN YOU GOT TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU START USING SHE HER PRONOUNS.

MAKE IT CLEAR THAT THE TRANSITION IS NO BIG DEAL AND THAT WORK WILL CONTINUE AS BEFORE.

HERE'S ONE OF MY FAVORITE PARTS HOW TO ADDRESS COWORKER CONCERNS A LACK OF KNOWLEDGE AROUND GENDER IDENTITY HAS THE POTENTIAL TO CREATE MISUNDERSTANDING AND TENSION IN THE WORKPLACE. YEAH, SO IT'S MY FAULT THAT I KNOW BOYS ARE BOYS AND GIRLS ARE GIRLS.

YEAH. GREAT ONE T-MOBILE, AND THAT'S ACTUALLY ALSO WHY I CALL T-MOBILE TRANS MOBILE.

FIRST DAY OF FULL TIME WORKPLACE GENDER TRANSITION.

YOU GET A NEW IDENTIFICATION BAG WITH YOUR NEW NAME AND A NEW PHOTO.

YOU GET AN UPDATED NAMEPLATE. ALL YOUR OFFICIAL RECORDS ARE CHANGED, SO THEY ACTUALLY CHANGE YOUR NAME IN THE SYSTEM AND THE EMAIL ADDRESS, AND SO HALF THE TIME, YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO YOU'RE WORKING WITH AT T-MOBILE.

RESTROOM ACCESS. THEY'RE VERY CLEAR THAT, YOU KNOW, IF YOU'RE A BOY AND YOU CHANGE TO A GIRL, YOU CAN GO USE THE GIRLS BATHROOM NOW. NAMES, PRONOUNS, YOUR NAME, ALL THIS STUFF.

SO, ANYWAY, YOU KNOW, THIS IS I'M GOING TO KEEP COMING BACK, AND YOU GUYS KNOW THAT T-MOBILE HAS VIOLATED THE UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION.

ALL OF YOU TOOK AN OATH TO THE CONSTITUTION. NONE OF YOU CARE THAT I'M HERE TELLING YOU, AND YOU'RE ACTUALLY COLLUDING WITH T-MOBILE, BECAUSE I'M SURE SOMEBODY HERE IS IN CONTACT WITH T-MOBILE LAWYERS AND THAT'S GOING TO BE PART OF MY LAWSUIT WHEN I SUE THE STATE OF TEXAS FOR VIOLATING MY CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS. OUT OF COLLIN COUNTY WITH A FALSE ALLEGATION OF HARASSMENT THAT I'M FIGHTING AGAINST JOHN FRYER ON TOP OF THE BOND VIOLATION THEY TRIED TO THROW AT ME FOR TWEETING BECAUSE THEY CAME AFTER MY FREE SPEECH AND MY FIRST AMENDMENT.

RIGHT, BUT ANYWAY, IT WAS NICE SEEING YOU GUYS AGAIN.

MARKPALASCIANO.COM SEE YOU NEXT MEETING. NEXT.

NEXT WE HAVE MR. LEE. OH, AND YOU KNOW, IT'S NOT IN THE RULES ABOUT THE SIGNS.

Y'ALL NEED TO UPDATE THE RULES. MR. LEE. DOESN'T SAY NO SIGNS.

[00:55:01]

GOOD EVENING EVERYBODY. OKAY. TODAY THE SUBJECT IS SPIRITUALISM.

SAUL, THE FIRST KING OF ISRAEL, TALKED WITH THE DEAD PRIEST SAMUEL THROUGH THE MEDIUM OF WOMEN. THE FAMILIAR SPIRIT AND THE WIZARD AND WITCH.

THE DEAD SAMUEL APPEARED AND TALKED TO KING SAUL.

TOMORROW SHALT THOU THY SONS BE WITH ME. THERE WAS A SEVERE COMBAT, SEVERE BATTLE WITH THE PALESTINE, AND SAUL DIED AND HIS SONS DIED. ECCLESIASTES NINE FIVE THE LIVING KNOW THAT THEY SHALL DIE, BUT THE DEAD KNOW NOT ANYTHING.

THEN WHO IS IT? IT IS SATAN WHO, EXPERT IN DISGUISE, DISGUISING, SOMETIMES DAZZLING ANGEL, APPEARED TO JESUS. SAUL DIED NOT BECAUSE THE DEAD SAMUEL'S WORD. WAS.

GOD SAID TO THROUGH MOSES REGARD NOT THEM THAT HAVE FAMILIAR SPIRIT OR NEITHER SEEK AFTER RESULT TO BE DEFILED BY THEM I AM THE LORD YOUR GOD. SO SAUL DIED FOR HIS FOR HIS TRANSGRESSION, WHICH HE COMMITTED AGAINST THE LORD. FIRST CHRONICLES 1013. THE BIBLE SAYS, SAUL DIDN'T DIDN'T DIE BECAUSE OF THAT SAMUEL.

BECAUSE GOD DID NOT WANT TO WANT TO SEE THAT PERSON OR THAT THE PERSON.

FIRST COMMAND. SECOND COMMAND. PROHIBITED. DEAD PERSON TALKING.

SO SAUL DIED FOR HIS TRANSGRESSION, AND AGAINST THE LORD.

IN THE REVELATION THERE IS A THERE. THERE IS LAST DAY OR HISTORY LAST DAY, AND THERE ARE SOME SOMETHING HAPPENED THAT IS SPIRITUALISM IS PREVALENT. I, I SAW THREE UNCLEAN SPIRITS LIKE FROGS COME OUT OF THE MOUTH OF A DRAGON, AND OUR MOUTH OVER THE MOUTH OF THE BEAST AND THE MOUTH OF THE FALSE PROPHET. THAT IS REVELATION 16 13-14.

14 SAYS, FOR THEY ARE THE SPIRITS OF DEVILS WORKING MIRACLES.

THE EXPLANATION THAT [INAUDIBLE] IS THROUGH THE TWO GREAT ERRORS SATAN WILL BRING PEOPLE UNDER HIS DECEPTION. TWO GREAT ERRORS IS WHAT? IMMORTALITY

[01:00:09]

THANK YOU, MR. LEE. THANK YOU. OKAY. SEE YOU NEXT TIME.

MAYBE SOMEDAY. THANK YOU. I WILL TELL YOU THE REST OF THEM.

OKAY. THANK YOU, MR. LEE. ALL RIGHT. WE HAVE ONE MORE CITIZEN INPUT.

DAVID EVANS IS NEXT. ONE STORY. NO, MR. LEE. NEXT TIME.

NEXT TIME, THANK YOU. OKAY. THANK YOU.

GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS DAVID EVANS WITH DOUGLAS DIVISIONS, AND I STAND BEFORE YOU THIS EVENING TO BRING YOU AN INVITATION TO JOIN OUR JUNETEENTH CELEBRATION THIS WEEK AT THE FRISCO LIBRARY. WE WILL BE THERE THURSDAY THE 19TH THROUGH SATURDAY THE 21ST.

THE HOURS ARE GOING TO BE HOLD ON. I JUST HAD IT UP.

ON THURSDAY WE WILL HAVE A YOUNG LADY SPEAKING MILAN WHO WON THE CONTEST THAT COUNCILWOMAN ANGELIA PELHAM PUT ON FOR MLK. IN ATTENDANCE AT THAT EVENT WAS MLK JR.

MARTIN LUTHER KING THE THIRD AS WELL. SO SHE'S A PHENOMENAL SPEAKER.

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR HAVING ME THIS EVENING.

THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. COUNCIL ITEM 26 CITY COUNCIL DISCUSSION CONCERNING ANY ACTIONS REQUIRED AS A RESULT OF TONIGHT'S AGENDA. ANY NOTED? NO. 27 IS GOVERNANCE MONITORING. I HAD GOVERNANCE MONITORING.

GIVE US AN A. ALL RIGHT, AND THAT'S THE END OF OUR REGULAR AGENDA, AND NOW WE HAVE SOME SPECIAL

[Recognition of Service for Council Member Tammy Meinershagen.]

I WOULD MAKE. WOULD MAKE YOU HOLD THIS, BUT IT'S ACTUALLY KIND OF HEAVY.

SO I'M GOING TO MAKE TODD HOLD IT. ALL RIGHT.

WELL FIRST WE HAVE A QUICK VIDEO THAT WE LIKE TO SHOW KIND OF SHOWCASING YOUR TIME IN OFFICE.

HI, TAMMY MEINERSHAGEN DO SOLEMNLY SWEAR THAT I WILL FAITHFULLY EXECUTE THE DUTIES OF THE OFFICE OF CITY COUNCIL PLACE TWO, AND TO BE YOUR FIRST ASIAN AMERICAN COUNCILWOMAN ON FRISCO CITY COUNCIL DURING AAPI MONTH.

IT'S JUST VERY MEANINGFUL TO ME AND THE REST.

OH, THE BEST THING ABOUT FRISCO IS ITS PEOPLE, AND THAT'S WHAT WE GET TO DO TONIGHT.

IT'S ABSOLUTELY, OVERWHELMINGLY AMAZING, AND JUST IN A FEW YEARS, WE'RE GOING TO SEE IT COME TOGETHER.

SHE IS RIGHT HERE TO BECAUSE SHE.

[01:05:03]

SHE STARTED FROM THE BOTTOM, RAISING HER HAND.

IT HONESTLY STARTED WITH A CONVERSATION WHEN SHE CALLED ME TO BE HER REALTOR, AND WE DIDN'T TALK ABOUT HER HOUSE.

WHEN I WENT AND MET HER FOR THE FIRST TIME, WE TALKED ABOUT HOW WE CAN BRING MORE ARTS TO FRISCO AND A TRICK THAT A LOT OF US ELECTED OFFICIALS LIKE TO DO WHEN WE HAVE SOMEONE COMPLAINING IS TO SAY, I WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO GET INVOLVED IN THAT ISSUE AND HELP ME SOLVE THAT, BECAUSE SURPRISINGLY, USUALLY THAT NOW GOES AWAY, BUT NOT FOR TAMMY.

SHE TOOK TOOK ME UP ON THAT AND WAS GIVING BACK TO HER SCHOOLS.

FRISCO ARTS, PTA. SHE WAS APPOINTED TO THE CITIZEN BOND COMMITTEE.

JUST SERVED OVER AND OVER. THE CITY OF FRISCO.

SERVING ON CITY COUNCIL. I USED TO HAVE TO TRY TO MENTOR HER TO SLOW DOWN.

I WAS LIKE, TAMMY, YOU ARE NEVER GOING TO BE ABLE TO KEEP THIS PACE UP.

SHE WAS AT EVERY SINGLE EVENT. THE ONLY COUNCIL MEMBER I'VE EVER KNOWN, AND I'VE SERVED WITH A LOT OVER THE LAST 18 YEARS THAT WENT TO TOUR EVERY SINGLE FACILITY. SHE WANTED TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED WHEN YOU FLUSHED YOUR TOILET AND WHERE THE WATER WENT AFTER YOU FLUSHED IT.

SHE WANTED TO LEARN HOW WHEN YOU TURNED THE FAUCET ON, HOW WATER ACTUALLY CAME OUT OF IT.

TO REALLY KIND OF DIVING INTO EVERY IMPORTANT ISSUE THAT THE CITY HAD.

SHE SERVED WITH COURAGE, WASN'T AFRAID TO TAKE ON DIFFICULT ISSUES.

SHE WAS A TRUE LEADER. SO WHEN SHE WAS PUT IN CHARGE OF SOMETHING, WHETHER IT WAS GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE, I THINK SHE REWROTE EVERY SINGLE GOVERNANCE POLICY WE HAVE IN THE CITY OF FRISCO.

SO WHEN WE TALKED ABOUT THE CITY COUNCIL WANTING TO BRING LIVE MUSIC TO THE CITY OF FRISCO AND CULTURAL AWARENESS, WHERE SHE SAID RAISED HER HAND, I'LL TAKE THE LEAD ON THAT AND GOT US LABELED AS A LIVE MUSIC CAPITAL DESIGNATION TO EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN, FROM OUR MULTICULTURAL COMMITTEE AND YOU KNOW, LEADING THROUGH SOME DIFFICULT TIMES, TOO, AND SO YOU KNOW, I WILL SAY, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF COUNCIL MEMBERS KIND OF COME AND GO, YOU KNOW, KIND OF KIND OF THROUGH THESE SEATS, AND FOR, YOU KNOW, SOME PEOPLE, YOU KNOW, THEY NEED NINE YEARS TO MAKE AN IMPACT, AND SOME PEOPLE CAN JUST SPRINT FOR THREE YEARS AND MAKE MORE OF AN IMPACT THAN MOST OF US.

SO I'M HONORED TO HAVE SERVED WITH YOU. I LOOK FORWARD TO WHAT'S NEXT.

I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU A MONTH OFF, AND THEN I'M GOING TO BE CALLING YOU TO SAY HOW WE GET YOU PLUGGED BACK INTO FRISCO AND YOUR SKILLS AND YOUR TALENT, BUT ON BEHALF OF THE COUNCIL, THE RESIDENTS OF FRISCO THAT'S BENEFITED FROM YOUR HARD WORK.

I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU, AND FRISCO IS A BETTER PLACE BECAUSE OF YOUR LEADERSHIP.

THANK YOU. THAT'S VERY KIND. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

THANK YOU. SIT DOWN. THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH. THAT MEANS A LOT.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR WORDS, MAYOR, AND YOU KNOW, I'VE GOT TO SAY THANK YOU TO MY FAMILY BEHIND ME BECAUSE THERE'S NO WAY THAT ANYONE CAN DO THIS TYPE OF SERVICE WITHOUT YOUR FAMILY. WITHIN THE THREE YEARS THAT I GOT TO SERVE, WE HAD TWO COLLEGE GRADUATIONS AND ONE HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION.

SO IT'S BEEN A BUSY TIME, BUT IT WAS AN HONOR TO SERVE OUR RESIDENTS.

YOU KNOW, SOMEBODY ASKED ME RECENTLY, WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE ACCOMPLISHMENT? I COULDN'T REALLY NARROW IT DOWN BECAUSE THIS COUNCIL HAS BEEN CONSISTENT FOR THREE YEARS, AND THAT'S WHAT'S BEEN REALLY SPECIAL ABOUT THIS TEAM, IS THIS CONSISTENCY, AND SO THE TEAM WAS ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH A LOT IN THREE YEARS, MORE THAN I THINK WE EVER EVEN EXPECTED, AND , AND SOME OF THOSE I THINK THE TOP ONES FOR ME WOULD BE WE ALL GOT TO FIX THE HOLE ON THE TOLL. FINALLY, WE GOT TO FINALIZE THE VISION FOR GRAND PARK AND SEE THAT MOVE FORWARD AND HAVE ITS FIRST PHASE, THE REINVESTMENT INTO DOWNTOWN. I MEAN, THESE ARE TRANSFORMATIONAL PROJECTS THAT WE GET TO WATCH NOW HAPPEN AND OUR COMMUNITY GET TO ENJOY.

SO IT'S BEEN SUCH AN HONOR. OF COURSE, I CAN'T THANK OUR STAFF ENOUGH.

WE HAVE SO MANY. I THINK UNTIL YOU'RE REALLY ON CITY COUNCIL, YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THE DEPTH OF THE TALENT ON OUR STAFF.

THEY ARE EXCEPTIONAL AND THEY'RE THE ONES WHO ARE THE BACKBONE OF OUR CITY OPERATIONS THAT HELP KEEP EVERYTHING MOVING FORWARD,

[01:10:06]

SO I DO WANT TO THANK ALL OF OUR STAFF AND ESPECIALLY, YOU KNOW, OUR CITY MANAGER.

I GOT TO BE PART OF THE PROCESS OF SELECTING HIM AND WATCHING HIM PUT TOGETHER A HIGH PERFORMING TEAM.

SO I DO WANT TO GIVE A BIG SHOUT OUT TO WES PEARSON TO AND BIG APPLAUSE FOR WES FOR EVERYTHING HE'S DONE, AND YOU KNOW, REALLY WHEN I STARTED TO SERVE, IT WAS ALWAYS JUST TO LEAVE EVERYTHING BETTER THAN WHEN I FOUND IT, AND THAT'S WHAT I THINK I'VE BEEN ABLE TO DO ON CITY COUNCIL.

I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING US. WHAT WOULD WHAT WOULD WE SAY? THE NEW THING FOR THE NEW PHRASE FOR OUR FUTURE OF VISIT FRISCO AND THE AREAS THAT WE'RE GOING TO GROW.

IT'S THAT IT'S WHERE GREATNESS GROWS AND THAT IS FRISCO.

I LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING THAT CONTINUE ON BEYOND ME, BEYOND ALL OF US ON COUNCIL.

SO THANK YOU. THANK YOU TO ALL MY SUPPORTERS.

EVERYONE HERE IN THIS ROOM THAT WORKED WITH ME, BELIEVED IN ME AND SUPPORTED ME TO CONTINUE IN THIS ROLE, AND I LOOK FORWARD TO TAKING THAT TIME.

THANK YOU. YEAH.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU TO THE WHOLE FAMILY. THANK YOU SO MUCH, AND NOW WE'RE GOING TO CELEBRATE MR.

[Recognition of Service for Council Member Bill Woodard.]

ALL RIGHT. WE'RE GOING TO GO AHEAD AND PLAY ANOTHER VIDEO HERE FOR BILL.

I, BILL WOODARD DO SOLEMNLY SWEAR OR AFFIRM. DO SOLEMNLY SWEAR OR AFFIRM THAT I WILL FAITHFULLY EXECUTE THE DUTIES OF THE OFFICE OF CITY COUNCIL.

MEMBER. PLACE FOUR OF THE CITY OF FRISCO. WALK IN THE STREET AS WELL.

IT'S A GOOD TIME TO BE ABLE TO INTERACT WITH THE COUNCIL AS WELL, IN A VERY INFORMAL SETTING.

I'VE SAID ONCE PEOPLE GET INTO OUR OPEN AREAS AND DOWN NEAR OUR CREEKS THAT THEY'LL EXPERIENCE A PART OF FRISCO THAT THEY JUST WOULDN'T NORMALLY SEE, JUST ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS PROPERTY AND UNLIKE ANYTHING ELSE WE'VE GOT.

THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE EVENTS. THIS IS REALLY AN OPPORTUNITY FOR NEIGHBORS TO GET TO KNOW NEIGHBORS.

JUST A LITTLE BIT OF MIXED EMOTIONS THOUGH, SINCE IT'S MY LAST ONE TO SIT AT THIS TABLE.

SO MAYBE I'LL BE BACK ON THE VISITOR TABLE NEXT YEAR.

THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF THINGS ON THE DEVELOPMENT SIDE WITH OUR PARKS AND OUR TRAILS AND GETTING DEVELOPERS TO DO THINGS DIFFERENT THAN THAN WHAT THEY DID 20 YEARS AGO, AND WE'VE GOTTEN THAT MENTALITY SHIFTED. SO NOW THEY'RE WANTING TO PUT THEIR AMENITIES IN UP FRONT BECAUSE THEY KNOW IT MAKES THEIR DEVELOPMENTS THAT MUCH BETTER.

SO TO HAVE BEEN PART OF THAT SHIFT IS YOU KNOW, I'M PRETTY PROUD OF THAT.

YEAH. BILL, I THINK THAT VIDEO COULD HAVE GONE ON FOR MUCH LONGER, AND IF YOU'VE EVER HEARD BILL SPEAK, YOU WOULD HAVE EXPECTED IT TO, BUT YOU KNOW, BILL HAS ALSO BEEN A REALLY LONG TIME FRIEND. I DON'T EVEN REMEMBER WHEN WE FIRST MET, PROBABLY OVER CLOSE TO 20 YEARS AGO, I THINK PROBABLY AND, YOU KNOW, BILL IS SOMEONE WHO'S ALWAYS LOVED FRISCO.

HE'S ALWAYS BEEN INVOLVED IN THE COMMUNITY. YOU KNOW, BACK TO THE OLD FRISCO ONLINE DAYS, IF, YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW BUT THEN, YOU KNOW, SERVING ON P&Z, PLANNING AND ZONING, FOR SIX YEARS,

[01:15:04]

YOU KNOW, BILL WILL CERTAINLY DO THAT. OF COURSE, EVERYONE HOPEFULLY NOW KNOWS HIS PASSIONS.

YOU KNOW, I ALWAYS JOKE WHAT'S GOING TO BE ON MY TOMBSTONE. I SHARE ONE WITH BILL WHICH IS OPEN SPACE, BUT HE'LL ALSO HAVE A PICTURE OF A CYCLIST ON HIS BECAUSE HE IS REALLY LED THE CHARGE FOR THE CYCLING COMMUNITY HERE IN FRISCO YOU KNOW, NORTHWEST COMMUNITY PARK, WHICH IS BEING BUILT RIGHT NOW. I DON'T THINK HAPPENS WITHOUT BILL'S LEADERSHIP, AND HIM PUSHING, PUSHING US THERE TO BELIEVE IN THE PROJECT, DO A PROOF OF CONCEPT, SEE THAT THERE'S A NEED FOR IT, AND THEN EXECUTING THROUGH THAT VISION, BUT , YOU KNOW, KIND OF OUR ENTIRE TRAIL NETWORK HAVING A MASTER PLAN FOR THAT.

WHEN WE DESIGNED THE WHOLE NORTH PART OF OUR CITY, WHEN WE TALK ABOUT FIELDS AND ALL THOSE AREAS, AS FAR AS HAVING A VISION TO KIND OF PLAN THE TRAIL NETWORK BEFORE WE EVEN THINK THROUGH THE ROADS TO KIND OF REALLY CHANGE THAT AREA FOR FOREVER.

BUT ALTHOUGH HE'S KNOWN AS THE PARKS GUY HE'S HAS SO MUCH MORE DEPTH THAN THAT.

YOU KNOW, WE WERE TALKING TODAY EARLIER, HIS HIS LAST VOTE OPPORTUNITY WILL BE A BUDGET VOTE.

HE'S A BANKER. SO HE LED OUR BUDGET AND AUDIT COMMITTEE FOR, FOR MANY YEARS, AND , YOU KNOW, COUNCIL SET A VISION THAT WE WANTED TO START A HOMESTEAD EXEMPTION AND THEN RAISE IT TO THE STATE MAXIMUM 20%, AND HE'LL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO VOTE ON THAT IN HIS LAST ACTION HERE ON THE 30TH TO ACCOMPLISH THAT GOAL.

SO HE'S HELPED THE CITY BE VERY FISCALLY CONSERVATIVE.

WE DO PERSONALITY TESTS FOR COUNCIL MEMBERS. YOU KNOW, AND IT ACTUALLY REALLY HELPS US BECAUSE IT HELPS US LEARN HOW TO WORK WITH EACH OTHER AS A GROUP, AND WE CAN ALL, YOU KNOW, WE GET WE'RE AROUND EACH OTHER SO MUCH THAT WE CAN PUT EACH ONE OF US UP THERE AND WE CAN WITHOUT THE NAME ON IT, NAME WHO IT IS, YOU KNOW. SO OF COURSE, YOU KNOW, TAMMY IS A TRAILBLAZER PERSONALITY.

BILL WAS OUR LIKE MOST WE CALL IT THE UPPER LEFT ARE OUR KIND OF TRAILBLAZERS AND, YOU KNOW, READY TO TAKE RISKS, AND OUR BOTTOM RIGHT, WE HAVE A GOOD BALANCE ON COUNCIL.

IS LIKE WE NEED TO MEASURE FIVE TIMES BEFORE WE CUT AND BILL WAS LIKE OFF THE PAGE, BOTTOM RIGHT.

THEY HAD TO CHANGE THE GRAPH DIMENSIONS JUST TO BE ABLE TO FIT THEM ON THERE, BUT HE REALLY WAS A GREAT BALANCE FOR US, BUT REALLY KIND OF EVOLVED OVER TIME. I WOULD SAY BY THE END.

HIS PERSONALITY PROFILE PROBABLY WAS REALLY DIFFERENT, YOU KNOW, THAN WHEN HE STARTED, BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, AS HE GOT MORE COMFORTABLE WITH CITY STAFF AND JUST HOW THE CITY'S RUN AND BECAME VERY QUICK TO, YOU KNOW, BE ABLE TO TAKE THOSE RISKS AND AGAIN, JUST, YOU KNOW, ANOTHER LEADER THAT LED FRISCO FEARLESSLY.

DIDN'T MATTER IF WE HAD 12 PEOPLE YELLING AT US HERE FROM THE DAIS, IF IT WAS THE RIGHT DECISION, HE WAS GOING TO MAKE THE RIGHT DECISION. SO HE IS GOING TO LEAVE A BIG GAPING HOLE IN OUR CITY COUNCIL FROM A LEADERSHIP PERSPECTIVE, AND , YOU KNOW, JUST AS YOUR FRIEND BILL, IT'S BEEN AN HONOR SERVING WITH YOU.

JUST LIKE I SAID, FOR FOR TAMMY, IT'S GOING TO BE TOUGH TO REPLACE YOU ON COUNCIL.

AS FAR AS YOUR KNOWLEDGE AND HISTORICAL KNOWLEDGE AND YOUR THOUGHTFULNESS AND YOUR STEADFAST, STEADFAST APPROACH TO DECISION MAKING, BUT I CAN UNEQUIVOCALLY SAY THAT FRISCO IS BETTER OFF BECAUSE YOU SERVED ON CITY COUNCIL.

CONGRATULATIONS, BUDDY.

I KNEW YOU WERE GOING TO CRY. I'M NOT GOING TO.

I'M GOING TO TRY NOT TO. I CAN'T LOOK AT MY WIFE BECAUSE THEN I WILL. WOW.

IT'S BEEN NINE YEARS. IT'S ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE TO THINK IT'S BEEN THAT LONG, AND YOU'D THINK KNOWING FOR THE LAST THREE YEARS THAT THIS NIGHT WAS COMING, I WOULD HAVE FIGURED OUT SOMETHING TO SAY, BUT I HAVEN'T. I GUESS THE BIG THANKS IS TO MY FAMILY FOR LETTING ME DO THIS.

THANK YOU TO MY FRIENDS ON COUNCIL. MY COLLEAGUES.

YOU GUYS HAVE BEEN ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE TO WORK WITH.

I CAN'T IMAGINE A BETTER GROUP OF PEOPLE. THIS LAST THREE YEARS HAS BEEN ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL.

IT'S FLOWN BY. JUST LOOKING BACK IN HISTORY, I'VE SERVED WITH 14 DIFFERENT PEOPLE.

JEFF, I CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE HOW MANY PEOPLE YOU'VE SERVED WITH AFTER 18, BUT IT'S BEEN ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL,

[01:20:05]

THANK YOU ALL. I GOT INTO THIS NOT BECAUSE OF ANYTHING THAT I WANTED TO DO.

I JUST THOUGHT I COULD HELP MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

SO, IT'S NEVER BEEN ABOUT ME. IT'S BEEN ABOUT THE CITY, AND HOPEFULLY I'VE LEFT IT A LITTLE BIT BETTER THAN WHAT I FOUND IT. THANK YOU TO ALL THE STAFF AS WELL.

YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING. THANK YOU.

ALL RIGHT. I'LL GIVE YOU ALL THE HONORS FOR A MOTION TO ADJOURN. SO MOVED.

SECOND.
