          OK. 
          WELCOME TO THE SPECIAL CALLED MEETING OF THE FRISCO CITY COUNCIL WITH THE 
          [CALL TO ORDER]
GEORGE A. 
          PIERREFOUR MUNICIPAL CENTER AND COUNCIL CHAMBER 6101 FRISCO SQUARE BOULEVARD IN FRISCO, TEXAS. 
          IT IS 4:00 P.M. ON TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 10TH, 2026, AND I WILL CALL THE MEETING TO ORDER. 
          WE'RE JOINED BY A QUORUM OF, UM, COUNCIL THIS EVENING. 
          FIRST ITEM IS CITIZEN INPUT. 
          IS THERE ANYONE THAT WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK DURING CITIZEN INPUT? OK, THAT WILL MOVE US TO OUR REGULAR AGENDA. 
          [Consider and act upon adoption of an Ordinance canvassing the election returns of the January 31, 2026, Special Election for the purpose of electing one member of the Frisco City Council (Place No. 1) to fill the vacancy resulting from the resignation of Council Member John Keating and declaring the results of the Special Election. (CSO/KM)]
ITEM TWO IS CONSIDER AN ACT UPON ADOPTION OF AN ORDINANCE CANVASSING THE ELECTION RETURNS OF THE JANUARY 31ST, 2026 SPECIAL ELECTION FOR THE PURPOSE OF ELECTING ONE MEMBER OF THE FRISCO CITY COUNCIL PLACE NUMBER ONE TO FILL THE VACANCY RESULTING FROM THE RESIGNATION OF COUNCIL MEMBER JOHN KEATING AND DECLARING THE RESULTS OF THE SPECIAL ELECTION. 
          MAYOR AND COUNCIL, YOU WERE SENT THE FINAL CANVAS AND THE ORDINANCE FOR THE CANVAS, UH, THIS AFTERNOON. 
          UM, THAT CANVAS SHOWS THAT ANN ANDERSON HAS A TOTAL OF 4,063 VOTES AND MARK PYLAND HAS A TOTAL OF 3,953 VOTES. 
          UH, AND THIS WOULD MEAN THAT ANN ANDERSON HAS WON THIS RACE. 
          AND SO I WILL LOOK FOR A MOTION. 
          AND JUST UM. 
          QUICKLY LOOKING AT IT, I GUESS THE FINAL DIFFERENCE WAS 110 VOTES, IS THAT RIGHT? SO I GUESS ELECTION NIGHT IT WAS 106, I BELIEVE. 
          AND THEN I, I MEAN, I KNOW IT'S 4 VOTES, BUT YEAH, SO WHAT YOU HAVE IS YOUR OVERSEAS BALLOTS THAT COME IN, AND THEY BOTH GOT ADDITIONAL VOTES, AND YOU HAD YOUR PROVISIONAL BALLOTS THAT ALSO CAME IN. 
          AND SO WHEN THE PROVISIONAL BALLOT BOARD MEETS, THEY CHOOSE, UH, WHICH ONES ARE GOOD AND WHICH ONES ARE NOT. 
          OK, SO THE FINAL DIFFERENCE IS 110 VOTES, AND I KNOW THERE WERE SOME QUESTIONS. 
          ON ELECTION DAY, UM, ABOUT THE CITY'S KIND OF POSTING OF TOTAL NUMBER OF REGISTERED VOTERS, I KNOW YOU SENT ME AN EXPLANATION, BUT IF YOU WANT TO GO AHEAD AND EXPLAIN THAT AS WELL, SURE, SO ON ELECTION NIGHT, DENTON COUNTY WAS REPORTING ON THEIR MAIN WEB PAGE THE TOTAL NUMBER OF REGISTERED VOTERS. 
          THAT NUMBER INCLUDED COLIN, UM, SORRY, THE CITY OF PLANO AND THE CITY OF FRISCO INSTEAD OF CITY OF FRISCO SPECIFIC NUMBERS. 
          SO WE CALLED THEM AND GOT CLARIFICATION, AND THEN WE CHANGED THAT NUMBER FOR A CITY OF FRISCO-SPECIFIC REGISTERED VOTERS. 
          ALL THAT REALLY DID WAS IMPROVE OUR VOTER TURNOUT NUMBERS. 
          OK. 
          ALL RIGHT, CANCEL ANY OTHER QUESTIONS THAT YOU HAVE. 
          ALL RIGHT, I'VE GOT THE OFFICIAL, UM, MOTION. 
          I MOVE TO APPROVE THE ORDINANCE AS PRESENTED, ACCEPTING THE CERTIFIED RESULTS OF THE JANUARY 31ST, 2026 SPECIAL ELECTION AND DECLARING ANN ANDERSON AS THE WINNER OF THE ELECTION FOR CITY COUNCIL PLACE ONE. 
          ALRIGHT. 
          GOT A MOTION BY LAURA, SECOND BY ANGELA IN FAVOR THAT PASSES 5-0. 
          ITEM 3 IS CONSIDERING AN ACT UPON THE ADOPTION OF AN ORDINANCE ORDERING 
          [Consider and act upon the adoption of an Ordinance ordering a General Election to be administered by the Collin County Elections Administrator and the Denton County Elections administrator on May 2, 2026, for the purpose of electing three members of the Frisco City Council (Mayor,    Place No 5. and Place No. 6) to fill expiring terms; designating early voting polling places and hours; designating election day polling places and hours; designating filing deadlines; ordering notices of election to be given as prescribed by law in connection with such election; providing for the appointment of election judges and clerks; and authorizing the Mayor and City Secretary to take all actions necessary to comply with applicable election laws.
