I'VE GOT ALL THE SLIDES READY I CAN COVER AGAIN, OR I CAN JUMP TO THE TO THE. YEAH. LET'S DO THE CAPTION AND SEE IF THERE'S ANY QUESTIONS. AND THERE ARE JUST THE TWO MINOR CHANGES THAT WE DISCUSSED LAST TIME RELATED TO THE, TO THE, TO THE ACREAGE AND TO THE PEREGRINE CLOSING DATE OR THE TWO MINOR CHANGES FROM LAST TIME. SO THE CAPTION IS AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GEORGETOWN, TEXAS, APPROVING A CONSENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY PIA CAPITAL LLC. SERIES 1PA CAPITAL LLC.

          [6.B Second Reading - Woodside MUD Amended and Restated First Amendment to Consent Agreement]
MR. BUTLER'S OPPOSED. THANK YOU. NICK, CAN YOU STAYING UP FOR THE NEXT ONE? YES, SIR. GO AHEAD. ITEM SIX B. OKAY. SO AGAIN, THIS IS A SECOND READING OF THE WOODSIDE NUMBER ONE, THE AMENDED AND RESTATED FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE CONSENT AGREEMENT. AGAIN I'VE GOT ALL THE SLIDES FROM LAST TIME. I'M HAPPY TO TO RUN THROUGH THE OVERVIEW AGAIN OR I CAN JUMP TO THE CAPTION. LET'S GO TO THE CAPTION. SURE. THIS IS AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF GEORGETOWN, TEXAS, APPROVING THE AMENDED AND RESTATED FIRST AMENDMENT TO CONSENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF GEORGETOWN, M.K. WOODSIDE DEVELOPMENT INC. AND WOODSIDE MUNICIPAL 
          [00:05:01]
MUNICIPAL UTILITY DISTRICT. NUMBER ONE. TO REVISE DEFINITIONS, THE APPLICABLE LAND USE PLAN, TREE PRESERVATION STANDARDS AND NOTICE PROVISIONS PROVIDING THAT THIS ORDINANCE SHALL BE CUMULATIVE OF ALL ORDINANCES, PROVIDING A SEVERABILITY SEVERABILITY CLAUSE AND ESTABLISHING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. THANK YOU. BEN'S GOT A QUESTION. 
          GO AHEAD. BEN. I WOULD LIKE YOU TO GO TO SLIDE SIX OF THE PRESENTATION. SO YOU KNOW NEXT ONE. THIS ONE. SO. DOWN THERE IN THE BOTTOM CENTER, THERE IS AN AREA THAT WAS TO BE CONNECTED. TO SHADY OAKS FROM THE PREVIOUSLY APPROVED WOODSIDE TRACK. RIGHT. WHERE IT SAYS OAK BRANCH DRIVE WILL BE A CUL DE SAC. SO IT WAS APPROVED TO BE A CUL DE SAC. WHENEVER WE AGREED WITH THE DEVELOPER THAT THE SECTION IN QUESTION WAS GOING TO BE PART OF WOODSIDE AND NOT PART OF SUN CITY, IS THAT CORRECT? THE ORIGINAL MUD CONSENT AGREEMENT THAT'S UP FOR AMENDMENT TONIGHT CONTEMPLATED THAT CUL DE SAC. YES, SIR. RIGHT. BUT NOW THEN WE'RE SAYING WE'RE GOING TO ADD MORE. ACTIVE ADULT COMMUNITY, WHICH IS GOING TO PUT MORE PRESSURE TO MOVE PEOPLE BETWEEN THIS SECTION OF SUN CITY AND SUN CITY PROPER. IS THAT CORRECT? WE'RE ADDING WE'RE ADDING MORE PEOPLE. WE'RE ADDING MORE ACTIVE ADULT. YES, SIR. AND SO THAT WILL PUT MORE DEMAND FOR A. PEOPLE MOVING FROM ONE PART OF SUN CITY TO THE OTHER. IF WE PUT IN A NEW AMENITY CENTER, THEN PEOPLE FROM THE CURRENT SUN CITY ARE GOING TO NEED TO GO OVER THERE TO ACCESS ANY MEETING ROOMS OR ANYTHING OVER THERE. AND THE PEOPLE OVER THERE ARE GOING TO BE NEEDING TO GET TO SUN CITY. WITH THE ORIGINAL AGREEMENT, THERE WERE GOING TO BE LESS PEOPLE ON THIS SIDE OF SUN CITY, LESS NEED FOR THAT ROAD. BUT IF WE MAKE THIS CHANGE, THERE IS MORE NEED FOR THAT ROAD. SO I FEEL IF WE'RE IF WE'RE GOING TO ADD THE 143 HOMES TO SUN CITY, WE NEED TO RECONSIDER THE WHOLE THING AND NOT JUST THE PART THAT SAYS WE'RE GOING TO ADD MORE PEOPLE BECAUSE THERE'S GOING TO BE MORE PRESSURE TO GO THROUGH THERE. CURRENTLY, THERE'S TWO OPTIONS TO GET BACK AND FORTH BETWEEN THIS PART OF SUN CITY AND SUN CITY PROPER. ONE IS YOU GET ON A GOLF CART AND YOU GO AT 22 MILES AN HOUR ACROSS A LITTLE PATH THAT IS CLOSED WHEN IT'S RAINING, OR AT LEAST SO I'VE BEEN TOLD. IT'S CLOSED WHEN IT RAINS. THE OTHER OPTION IS TO GET OUT ON A HIGHWAY WITH A 55 MILE AN HOUR SPEED LIMIT IN ONE SECTION AND 65 MILES SPEED LIMIT THE OTHER. THERE'S NO OPTION TO GET BETWEEN POINT A AND POINT B BETWEEN 22 MILES AN HOUR AND 55 MILES AN HOUR. WE WOULD LIKE THAT OPTION, AND OPENING UP THIS PARTICULAR SECTION WOULD ALLOW PEOPLE TO DO THAT. IF WE WANT TO APPROVE THIS ADDITION TO SUN CITY, WHICH IS SOMETHING ELSE I'M AGAINST, BUT WE'LL GET TO THAT IN THE DISCUSSION PART. BUT IS THERE ANY REASON THAT WE COULD NOT PUT THAT CONNECTION BACK IN? I DON'T SEE ANY HOUSES PLOTTED THERE. THAT CUL DE SAC COULD BE TURNED INTO A ROAD AND JUST EASILY CONNECT THAT SECTION INSTEAD OF EXPECTING THE PEOPLE IN THAT SECTION AND OTHERS TO GO OUT ON THE HIGHWAY TO GET FROM POINT A TO POINT B IN SUN CITY. IS THERE ANYTHING THAT STOPS THAT? I THINK, COULD IT HAPPEN? I, I DON'T I DON'T KNOW, FROM A TECHNICAL STANDPOINT, I WOULD HAVE TO HAVE OUR TEAM LOOK INTO IT TO SEE IF THERE'S ANY REASON IT TECHNICALLY COULDN'T HAPPEN FROM, FROM AN ENGINEERING STANDPOINT, FROM A I MEAN, FROM A LEGAL STANDPOINT, I MEAN, Y'ALL COULD CHANGE, COULD, COULD CHANGE THAT VERSION OF THE AGREEMENT WHERE THE CUL DE SAC WAS INCLUDED AND TAKE, TAKE THAT AWAY, TAKE THAT OUT OF THE AGREEMENT. I MEAN, THAT WOULD BE AN OPTION. WELL, WE ARE WE ARE CHANGING THE ORIGINAL AGREEMENT. IF THIS PASSES TONIGHT WE'RE CHANGING THE ORIGINAL AGREEMENT. RIGHT? SURE. SO IF WE'RE GOING TO CHANGE THE ORIGINAL AGREEMENT, LET'S GO BACK TO THE BEGINNING AND RELOOK THAT WHOLE AGREEMENT AND SEE IF THAT IS NOT NEEDED. AND THAT I WOULD SUGGEST THAT IF WE THINK THAT IT IS RIGHT TO ADD THOSE 143 HOMES, WE NEED TO ADD ANOTHER OUTLET THERE. OTHERWISE, THE TWO OTHER OUTLETS THAT MAY GET CONNECTED THERE ARE GOING TO HAVE EVEN MORE TRAFFIC. AND THOSE ROADS ARE EVEN THINNER THAN THE ONE THAT WE'RE ADDING THAT I'M SUGGESTING THAT WE PUT BACK IN TO THE ORIGINAL CONCEPT OF CONNECTING BETWEEN SHADY OAKS AND WHATEVER IS DEVELOPED THERE. 
          IF IT WASN'T FOR SUN CITY, IF IT WAS JUST A REGULAR DEVELOPMENT, THERE WOULDN'T BE NEAR THE PRESSURE TO GO BETWEEN THAT AREA AND SUN CITY PROPER. BUT BECAUSE IT'S SUN CITY, THE 
          [00:10:01]
AMENITY CENTERS ARE ON BOTH SIDES. PEOPLE LIVE ON BOTH SIDES. THEY'RE GOING TO WANT TO GET BACK AND FORTH AND NOT HAVE TO GO ON A GOLF CART TRACK OR OUT TO A A ROAD THAT'S A 55 MILE AN HOUR SPEED LIMIT. SO I'M SUGGESTING THAT IF WE WANT TO DO THIS, THAT WE NEED TO GO BACK AND REDO THE THIS AMENDMENT SO THAT IF WE'RE GOING TO AMEND MORE PEOPLE, WE'RE GOING TO PROVIDE MORE OPPORTUNITY TO GET BACK AND FORTH AND UNDERSTOOD. AND IF THAT WAS THE DESIRE OF THE FULL COUNCIL, I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND MAKING THAT CHANGE TONIGHT, BECAUSE, AGAIN, STAFF HAS NOT LOOKED INTO WHETHER TECHNICALLY IT CAN EVEN HAPPEN. WE ALSO THE THE FOLKS LIVING IN SHADY OAKS WERE NOT AWARE OF OF. YEAH. AND THAT'S THE, THE ONE THING I WANTED TO THE HISTORY HERE IS THE DEVELOPER DID NOT ASK US TO NOT MAKE THAT CONNECTION. THEY. 
          THEY ACTUALLY WOULD HAVE PREFERRED TO MAKE THAT CONNECTION. THAT AGREEMENT WAS STRUCK BETWEEN COUNCIL AND SHADY OAKS NOT NOT COUNCIL AND THE DEVELOPER. AND SO THAT'S. 
          BUT THAT'S WITH LESS PEOPLE IN SUN CITY. NO, I UNDERSTAND, I UNDERSTAND, BUT IT'S I'M JUST GIVING YOU THE HISTORY OF IT WASN'T THE DEVELOPER THAT SAID, YOU KNOW, I DON'T WANT TO CONNECT TO SHADY OAKS. THE DEVELOPER IS LIKE, WE'RE HAPPY TO CONNECT TO SHADY OAKS COUNCIL. YOU KNOW, AND AGAIN, I'M NOT SAYING IT'S A LEGALLY BINDING COMMITMENT, BUT THAT THAT CUL DE SAC IS THERE WAS SOMETHING WE AGREED TO FOR THE FOLKS IN SHADY OAKS, NOT FOR THE DEVELOPER. JUST MAKING SURE THAT THAT'S THAT CONTEXT IS CLEAR. THANK YOU FOR THAT. AND I UNDERSTAND THAT IT'S JUST THAT WE'RE ADDING MORE PEOPLE THAT ARE GOING TO NEED TO GET BACK AND FORTH. AND THEN IF WE GO INTO THIS OTHER TRACK, THERE'S EVEN GOING TO BE MORE DEMAND ON THAT. AND I THINK IT'S IT'S TIME NOW TO IF WE'RE GOING TO DO THIS, WE NEED TO GO BACK AND RELOOK THAT. AND I MY RECOMMENDATION IS WE DEFEAT THIS TONIGHT. BUT LET'S GO ON WITH. SO YEAH. DID YOU HAVE OTHER QUESTIONS? NOT QUESTIONS. BUT I HAVE A LOT OF DISCUSSION. 
          ALL RIGHT. SO DO YOU HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS. BUT I DON'T HAVE A LOT OF DISCUSSION. OKAY. 
          SO LET'S HAVE A MOTION SO WE CAN HAVE SOME DISCUSSION. LET ME JUST ASK ONE QUESTION, NICK. 
          THERE. WE DON'T HAVE ANY ROADS PLAN ON OUR PLAN OF ANY KIND CONNECTING THE TWO SIDES OR GETTING ACROSS THE CREEK THERE OF ANY OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER. RIGHT. NO, SIR. I THINK ANY ANY OPPORTUNITY TO DO THAT IS IS GONE AT THIS POINT. THE TWO REAL POTENTIAL OPTIONS WERE, YOU KNOW, BASICALLY OVER HERE ACROSS BERRY CREEK. NOW, IT'S A IT'S A VERY WIDE FLOODPLAIN AND IT'S REALLY CLOSE TO RONALD REAGAN. SO THAT THAT WASN'T A FEASIBLE OPTION ACCORDING TO, YOU KNOW, PULTE, WHEN THIS ALL ORIGINALLY STARTED, THE OTHER PRACTICAL OPTION WOULD HAVE BEEN A CONNECTION DOWN ON THIS PORTION TO THIS. THIS IS A THIS IS SUN CITY DOWN HERE TO THE SOUTH HERE. IF THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN A CONNECTION TO. THERE'S A COLLECTOR ROAD WITHIN SUN CITY DOWN THERE. IF A CONNECTION WAS AVAILABLE THERE, THAT WOULD HAVE MADE THE MOST SENSE. BUT THE HOUSES ARE BUILT. THERE'S NOT AN AVAILABLE WAY TO CONNECT. SO THERE'S. THERE'S NO WAY TO MAKE A NEW A NEW CONNECTION TO SUN CITY AT THIS POINT. ARE THERE ALREADY HOUSES ACROSS THE CREEK THAT ARE BUILT? YES. HAVE IT. AND BETTER PART OF SUN CITY. YES, SIR. AND DO Y'ALL KNOW. DO THOSE FOLKS COME OVER TO SUN CITY? TO THE TO THE AMENITIES? I DON'T KNOW IF YOU. YES. WHAT YOU SEE WHERE IT'S ACTIVE ADULT SINGLE FAMILY DETACHED RESIDENTIAL AREA ON THE LOWER PART OF THAT. THAT'S PART OF SUN CITY ALREADY. AND THAT RIGHT ADJACENT TO THE 143 HOMES WE'RE TALKING ABOUT IS ALSO A PART OF SUN CITY AT THE PRESENT TIME. YEAH. IF YOU SEE THE THE THE ROUNDABOUT RIGHT HERE, A LOT OF THIS RESIDENTIAL PORTION OF SUN CITY IS BUILT AND ACTIVE RIGHT NOW. AND TO THE SOUTH OF THAT AND TO THE SOUTH. YES. GOT IT. ALL RIGHT. OTHER QUESTIONS. 
          HAVE A MOTION. I'LL MAKE A MOTION FOR APPROVAL OF THE WOODSIDE MUD. AMENDED AND RESTATED FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE CONSENT AGREEMENT. SECOND. ALL RIGHT, NOW WE CAN HAVE SOME DISCUSSION. GO AHEAD. BEN. SO I HAVE GOTTEN MANY, MANY, MANY, MANY EMAILS OVER THE LAST SEVERAL DAYS. ALL BUT ONE SAID THAT WE DON'T WANT SUN CITY TO BECOME ANY LARGER. AND THEY HAD LOTS OF REASONS. ONE OF THE MAIN REASONS WE'VE BEEN TOLD FOR DECADES THAT IT'S GOING TO BUILD OUT AT 10,000 HOUSES. WE'VE ALREADY PASSED THAT. SO WHENEVER THEY BUILT THE BALLROOM, THE CRAFT SHOPS, THE WOODWORKING SHOP, THE BILLIARD ROOMS, THE GOLF COURSES, THE PLAN WAS 10,000. WE'VE GOT TO THAT POINT AND PASSED IT. SO WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES THAT MAKE? WELL, IF YOU WANT TO GET A ROOM IN THE BALLROOM, IF YOU IF YOU DON'T SIGN UP WITHIN ABOUT AN HOUR OF THE EVENT COMING AVAILABLE, THEN YOU DON'T GET IN. THAT'S BAD ENOUGH. IT'S 
          [00:15:06]
GOING TO GET EVEN WORSE WHEN WE ADD EVEN MORE PEOPLE, THE THE SHOPS, THE WAITING TIME. SO IT WAS NOT DESIGNED FOR THIS MANY PEOPLE. YOU CAN ADD ANOTHER AMENITY CENTER AND YOU GET MORE MEETING ROOMS, BUT THEN THE MEETING ROOMS ARE IN THE WRONG PART BECAUSE MOST OF THE PEOPLE, YOU KNOW, 90% OF THEM ARE ON THE OTHER SIDE. AND AS I STATED EARLIER, THE ONLY WAY TO GET BETWEEN THE TWO IS EITHER A GOLF CART AT 22 MILES AN HOUR OR GET OUT ON RONALD REAGAN OR STATE HIGHWAY 195, WHERE THE SPEED LIMIT IS 55 MILES AN HOUR. WE PREFER TO NOT HAVE TO MAKE A CHOICE BETWEEN THOSE TWO. IF WE NEED TO GET TO BETWEEN JUST SOMEPLACE THAT WE WANT TO GO INFORMALLY TO A MEETING OR TO A PLAY GOLF OR TO, I GUESS GOLF IS NOT A GOOD IDEA SINCE WE ALREADY HAVE THE GOLF CART PATH. BUT IF YOU WANT TO GO TO THE WOODWORKING SHOP OR PLAY BILLIARDS OR SOMETHING, IT'S IT'S NOT CONDUCIVE TO IT. SO WE'VE BEEN TOLD THAT 10,000 WAS GOING TO BE THE LIMIT. AND NOW THEN WE'RE OVER THAT. I THINK WE'RE AT 10,002 50. IT MAY BE MORE. WE WANT TO ADD ANOTHER 143 TONIGHT, WHICH OH BY THE WAY, WE'VE ALREADY AGREED TO THAT. IT WOULDN'T BE. AND NOW WE WANT TO GO BACK AND SAY, OH, WE WERE JUST KIDDING. WE WE DO WANT IT TO BE PART OF SUN CITY. AND THAT DOESN'T SIT WELL WITH ME. AND THEN ON THE OTHER SIDE, IN THE BIG WHITE SPOT. AT THE. THEY WANT TO ADD ANOTHER 500 PEOPLE, 500 HOUSES WHICH CLOSE TO A THOUSAND PEOPLE TO GO TO THESE SHOPS AND BALLROOMS AND OTHER PLACES THAT ARE ALREADY OVERCROWDED. SO THAT THAT JUST DOESN'T SIT WELL WITH ME THAT, THAT WE'RE REDOING AND ALREADY AGREED TO DEVELOPMENT, NOT TO THE ADVANTAGE OF ANYBODY THAT I KNOW OF, EXCEPT MAYBE THE DEVELOPER. I DON'T SEE HOW ADDING MAKING THIS AN ACTIVE ADULT AREA IN SUN CITY HELPS ANYBODY. IT BREAKS WHAT WOODSIDE UP INTO TWO DIFFERENT PARTS INSTEAD OF ONE CONTIGUOUS ONE. SO THEY CAN HAVE A CONTIGUOUS ONE FOR SUN CITY. I HAVEN'T SEEN ANYBODY HEARD ANYBODY TELL ME HOW WHAT WE WERE DISCUSSING TONIGHT IS BENEFICIAL TO THE CITIZENS OF GEORGETOWN, MUCH LESS FOR SUN CITY. THE. AND IS ANYBODY FROM PULTE HERE? OKAY, SO ONE OF MY CONCERNS IS PULTE, AND THEY HAVE AN ESTIMATOR FOR THEIR PEOPLE THAT ARE MOVING IN THAT TELLS YOU THE THE MONTHLY COST OF WHAT YOU'RE GOING TO DO. AND I IDENTIFIED 2 OR 3 MONTHS AGO IN THIS FORUM THAT THERE WAS NOT A. IT DID NOT ACCOUNT FOR THE ADDITIONAL $0.55 IN THIS AREA. AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD LOOK AT IT. THEY HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE GOOD PARTNERS IN WHAT WE DO AND NOT PEOPLE THAT SAY, OH, YEAH, WE'LL. WE DON'T, WE'LL WE'LL LOOK INTO IT, BUT HAVE DONE NOTHING FOR MONTHS AT WHY THIS ESTIMATOR DOESN'T LOOK AT THE THE ADDITIONAL COSTS AND GIVES PEOPLE AN INACCURATE ACCOUNTING OF WHAT IT'S GOING TO COST. AND I DO ACKNOWLEDGE THERE'S A LITTLE THING AT THE BOTTOM THAT SAYS THIS IS ONLY AN ESTIMATE, BUT IF THEY KNOWINGLY KNOW THEIR ESTIMATE IS ACTIVELY WRONG, THAT BOTHERS ME. SO I DON'T FEEL I OWE THEM ANYTHING TO, TO BE ABLE TO DO THIS. AND THEN THERE'S THE THE PROBLEM WITH SOMERSET HILLS TAX ACKNOWLEDGMENT THAT. PULTE'S TITLE COMPANY. WAS SUPPOSED TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYBODY THAT BOUGHT IN SOMERSET HILLS, WHICH IS PART OF WHAT'S ON THE PICTURE HERE, BUT NOT NECESSARILY TONIGHT, BUT WE HAD ONE LADY THAT WENT TO THE TAX OFFICE AND RESEARCHED 91 DIFFERENT PEOPLE THAT HAD MOVED IN. OF THOSE 91, NONE OF THEM HAD SIGNED A AN ACKNOWLEDGMENT THAT THE THEY WERE MOVING INTO A SUMMER SALES ROAD DIVISION. 
          AND THE ONES THAT DID SIGN IT. 13 OF THEM, 13 OF THE 15, WERE. A MUD, A MUD AGREEMENT, AND NOT 
          [00:20:04]
A ROAD AGREEMENT. SO IT WAS THE WRONG PAPER. SO I JUST THAT DOESN'T SIT WELL WITH ME. SO WHAT I'M ASKING IS FOR US TO CONSIDER NOT MAKING THIS, NOT CHANGING OUR ORIGINAL AGREEMENT. 
          LET'S LIVE WITH THE ORIGINAL AGREEMENT. LET'S LET SUN CITY LIVE WITH THEIR ORIGINAL AGREEMENT OF TEN 000 ROOFTOPS, OR AS CLOSE TO IT AS POSSIBLE, AND NOT ADD THESE 143 HOMES TONIGHT. AND IF WE DO, IF WE WOULD LIKE TO ADD THE 143 ADDITIONAL HOMES, LET'S DELAY IT UNTIL WE GET A READING ON THIS OAK BRANCH DRIVE SO THAT WE CAN HAVE ADDITIONAL OUTLETS FOR THE PEOPLE IN SUN CITY, GOING BOTH FROM THE OLD SUN CITY TO THE NEW AMENITY CENTER, AND FROM THE NEW SUN CITY TO THE OLD BILL BALLROOM AND CRAFT SHOPS AND ALL THOSE OTHER THINGS. I JUST THINK THAT'S THE ONLY FAIR THING TO DO, IS IF WE WANT TO ADD THESE 143 HOMES, WE NEED TO DO THAT. BUT MY FIRST REQUEST IS WE SAY, NO, LET'S YOU LIVE WITH THE AGREEMENT THAT WE AGREED TO ON WOODSIDE, AND YOU LIVE TO THE AGREEMENT THAT YOU'VE MADE WITH ALMOST 10,000 DIFFERENT HOMEOWNERS, THAT YOU WOULD NOT GO BEYOND THE 10,000 ROOFTOPS. SO THAT'S WHAT I'D LIKE TO SAY. AND THANK YOU FOR LISTENING. WELL, YEAH, I GOT A QUESTION, NICK. I WAS READING THROUGH THE ATTACHMENTS, THE CONSENT AGREEMENT, THE AMENDMENTS IN SEARCHING. IT OBVIOUSLY HAS THE LAND PLAN WHICH SAYS ARE THERE SINGLE FAMILY, ACTIVE ADULT, SINGLE FAMILY, DETACHED RESIDENTIAL AREA. I KNOW THEY HAVE PRESENTED TO US THAT THE SECTIONS WILL GO INTO WILL BE INCORPORATED INTO SUN CITY. BUT IN OUR AGREEMENTS WE'RE VOTING ON TODAY. DOES IT DOES IT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH SUN CITY, OR DOES IT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THIS PROPERTY BEING INCORPORATED IN SUN CITY, OR IS THAT A PRIVATE AGREEMENT OUTSIDE OF THIS? THEY'RE JUST DISCLOSING THAT TO US ON THE FRONT SIDE, THAT THAT'S WHAT THEIR PLAN IS AT THIS TIME. THAT WOULD BE A PRIVATE AGREEMENT. OKAY. SO WHAT WE'RE VOTING ON WOULD BE ANNEXATION AND ZONING AT THIS POINT AND LAND USE. THIS IS A LAND USE DISCUSSION. YES, SIR. OKAY. WELL, IT'S NOT ANNEXATION THOUGH. IT'S A IT'S A MUD. YEAH. 
          I'M SORRY. PARDON ME. IN CITY MUD AND ZONING. SO IT'S LAND USE. OKAY. WELL, AND ON THE CUL DE SAC THERE WAS. SORRY. JUST TO CLARIFY, THERE IS THERE WOULD BE A THEY HAVE A PUD HERE, SO THERE WOULD BE A PUD AMENDMENT STILL REQUIRED. I SEE TO TO COME FORWARD. THIS IS JUST THE JUST GOING FROM SINGLE FAMILY DETACHED TO ACTIVE ADULT. IN THE CONSENT AGREEMENT ITSELF, THERE IS STILL THE POD THAT WOULD COME AFTER THIS. OKAY. THANK YOU. YEAH. TO THE MAYOR'S POINT ON THAT CUL DE SAC. THAT WAS THE THE ONE AT FIRST READING, THERE WAS 120 LETTERS OF OPPOSITION AND ITS SECOND READING AFTER IT GOT NEGOTIATED BETWEEN THE DEVELOPER AND THE THE NEIGHBORHOOD, THERE WAS 120 LETTERS OF SUPPORT. AND SO I WOULD NOT BE SUPPORTIVE OF OF CUTTING THROUGH THERE. I'D BE HAPPY TO LOOK FOR OTHER CONNECTIONS. I WOULDN'T WANT THE CITY TO PAY FOR IT. IF THEY DECIDE TO INCORPORATE SUN CITY DECIDES TO INCORPORATE THAT AREA, THEN SUN CITY CAN PAY FOR IT. WE CAN HELP, YOU KNOW, MAYBE THERE'S SOMETHING WE COULD SUPPORT WITH, BUT IF THERE'S A WAY TO CONNECT IT, THEN PERFECTLY FINE WITH THAT. 
          BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY, WE'VE HAD DEVELOPERS COME HERE IN MY TIME ON THE DAIS AND TELL US, SHOW US PRETTY PICTURES AND TELL US THE THINGS THEY PLAN ON DOING, AND THEN END UP NOT DOING THEM OR END UP SELLING THEM OR WHATEVER. SO FROM A LAND USE STANDPOINT, CREATING THE MUD AND CONSENTING TO IT. WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THIS ONE FOR A WHILE, SO I'M SUPPORTIVE OF MOVING FORWARD AT THIS POINT. WE CAN TALK ABOUT THE PUD ONCE THAT COMES FORWARD. CAN I ASK A QUESTION? SURE. SO OF THE 120 SOMETHING LETTERS OF SUPPORT OF MAKING THAT A CUL DE SAC, HOW MANY OF THEM LIVED IN THE CITY LIMITS, AND HOW MANY LIVED IN SHADY OAKS THAT WERE NOT IN THE CITY LIMITS? I'D IMAGINE 120 WERE NOT IN THE CITY LIMITS. SO I FEEL THAT I NEED TO SUPPORT MY CONSTITUENTS IN THE CITY LIMITS, AND I WOULD ASK THAT WE DO THAT AROUND THE CITY AND NOT JUST IN MY AREA. NO, NO THANK YOU, I UNDERSTAND THAT, BUT I ALSO THOSE WHO LIVE IN THE ETJ, WHILE THEY DON'T PAY PROPERTY TAXES, I DON'T JUST IGNORE THEM COMPLETELY. I'LL TRY TO WORK WITH THEM AND TRY TO FIGURE OUT A WAY TO HELP IMPROVE THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE. I'VE GOT SEVERAL COMMENTS THAT I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE, AND I APPRECIATE BEN AND ALL THAT HE'S SHARED WITH YOU TONIGHT AND ACKNOWLEDGED IN THE BEGINNING, THIS IS THE MOST DIFFICULT ISSUE I'VE FACED SINCE I'VE SAT ON THE DAIS IN THE FIVE, FIVE PLUS YEARS. AND THE MORE I THOUGHT ABOUT IT, THE MORE I REALIZED WHAT I'VE GOT TO DO TONIGHT IS PRETTY MUCH VOTE MY CONSCIENCE, AS I WOULD EXPECT MOST OTHER PEOPLE TO DO IN THE SAME SITUATION. I'VE LIVED IN SUN CITY FOR 17 YEARS. I CHOSE SUN CITY BECAUSE OF WHAT IT WAS OFFERING ME IN THE WAY OF 
          [00:25:04]
AMENITIES, SECURITY, SAFETY, AND JUST THE ESTHETIC LOOK OF SUN CITY. AND IT'S NEVER DISAPPOINTED ME. I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT OUR DEVELOPER HAS BEEN A STRONG PARTNER WITH US THROUGHOUT THIS PERIOD OF TIME, AND EQUALLY, EQUALLY, TO THE POINT WHERE WHEN WE FAILED AS AN ORGANIZATION TO HAVE GOLF AS AN OPERATION BREAK EVEN, THEY WROTE CHECKS TO MAKE IT GOOD. 
          THEY'RE STILL IN PLACE AND THEY'RE STILL THEY STILL ARE A STRONG PARTNER. I SEE THIS AS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR THESE 143 HOMES TO BE A PART OF SUN CITY AND SUN CITY WORK WITH PULTE TOGETHER TO MAKE THE AMENITY CENTER APPROPRIATE. THERE'S A REALITY THAT WE GOT 17,000 PEOPLE THERE NOW. YES, THE BALLROOM WILL HOLD 600. SELDOM IS THE BALLROOM TOTALLY FULL, BUT IT IS FULL AT TIMES. BUT I DON'T THINK ANYONE WOULD EXPECT US TO BUILD A 17000 PERSON BALLROOM. I MEAN, IT'S JUST SOME OF THAT TO ME DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. THEY ARE COMMITTED TO BUILDING A NEW AMENITY CENTER, AND I THINK THAT'S WHERE THE OPPORTUNITY IS GOING TO BE TO INTERFACE AND SEE THAT THE THINGS THAT ARE THE THINGS THAT ARE REQUESTED AND SEEN TO BE IMPORTANT BY RESIDENTS OF SUN CITY AND OUR BOARD ARE DISCUSSED, AND A PLAN IS DEVELOPED TO MAKE SOMETHING OF THAT NATURE HAPPEN. THE OTHER THE OTHER PIECE THAT I FEEL STRONGLY ABOUT IS, AS A MEMBER OF THIS BOARD, OF THIS COUNCIL AND A SUN CITY RESIDENT, IT'S ALWAYS BEEN MY BELIEF THAT EVENTUALLY WE WOULD SEE A LOT MORE COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT ALONG 195 AND ALONG RONALD REAGAN. I THINK THE ADDITION OF THESE 143 HOMES AS A PART OF SUN CITY WILL HELP ACCOMPLISH PART OF THAT LONG TERM GOAL OF MINE. AND IT'S GOING TO BE I DO WANT TO MENTION, TOO, THAT AT ONE POINT IN TIME, AND I AGREE WITH BEN, THE ORIGINAL PLAN FOR SUN CITY WAS 10,000 HOMES AT ONE TIME. THAT WAS CHANGED TO BE 7500 HOMES. THAT WAS WHEN WE HAD A LITTLE DOWNTURN IN OUR ECONOMY. AND THEN IT WENT BACK TO 10,000. SO THE DEVELOPER SAYING WE WANT TO BUILD A FEW MORE HOMES ISN'T NECESSARILY, FROM MY PERSPECTIVE, A VIOLATION OF AN AGREEMENT BECAUSE 7500 IS DIFFERENT THAN 10,000, 10,000, 143 IS DIFFERENT THAN 10,000. SO I'M IN FAVOR OF WHAT WE'RE DOING RIGHT NOW. THANK YOU. SO, RON, YOU TALKED ABOUT THE THE BALLROOM. THERE HAVE BEEN MANY TIMES I'VE TRIED TO GET TICKETS TO EVENTS IN THE BALLROOM AND THERE WEREN'T ANY SPACES LEFT. SO THEY ARE SOLD OUT QUITE OFTEN. OH, AND I DON'T I DON'T DISAGREE WITH AT ALL WITH THAT, BEN. NOT AT ALL. OKAY. I REALLY DON'T BECAUSE THERE NEVER WAS AN INTENT TO BE ABLE TO PUT EVERY RESIDENT IN SUN CITY IN A BALLROOM, AND IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN NOW. IT DIDN'T HAPPEN THEN. I TOO HAVE TRIED TO BUY TICKETS WHEN TICKETS HAVE BEEN SOLD AND SOLD OUT, AND THAT'S JUST PART OF LIFE RIGHT NOW. 
          YEAH. AND I'LL JUST THROW IN A COUPLE COMMENTS. YOU KNOW, ONE, WE'RE NOT VOTING ON SUN CITY TONIGHT. IT'S NOT NOT WE'RE NOT VOTING ON ANYTHING. YOU KNOW, ABOUT SUN CITY TONIGHT IN THIS AGENDA. I MEAN, IN THIS ITEM, YOU KNOW, AND THE CONCERNS THAT FOLKS HAVE ABOUT HOW SUN CITY IS BEING OPERATED, YOU KNOW, REALLY ARE NOT PART OF THIS AGREEMENT. I MEAN, SUN CITY COULD GO TAKE ROCK BLUFF, WHICH IS AN EXISTING MUD, AND TURN THE ENTIRE THING INTO SUN CITY TOMORROW WITHOUT ASKING ANYBODY'S PERMISSION FOR ANYTHING. AND YOU'D HAVE SEVERAL THOUSAND HOMES BEING ADDED TO SUN CITY WITH A SNAP. AND THEY DON'T HAVE TO BUILD ONE AMENITY CENTER, DON'T HAVE TO DO ANYTHING IN THAT. AND THE OTHER THING THAT COULD HAPPEN IS, IF THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN, THIS COULD BE A SEA OF MOBILE HOMES TOMORROW TOO. IF THIS DOESN'T GET BROUGHT INTO THE CITY. SO THAT THAT'S WHAT I THINK THE BENEFIT TO THE CITY IS, IS THAT THIS IS GOING TO GET DEVELOPED AT A VERY HIGH LEVEL. THAT COULD ABSOLUTELY GO THE EXACT OPPOSITE DIRECTION. IF WE DON'T APPROVE A MUD HERE, I THINK WE GET THE WORST DEVELOPMENT POSSIBLE IN THIS THOMPSON TRACT. IF IF IT DOESN'T GET INCORPORATED IN THIS MUD. AND THEN, AS KEVIN SAID, YOU KNOW, I UNDERSTAND. AND WE WE WENT BACK AND FORTH BIG TIME ON THIS CONNECTION POINT WITH SHADY OAKS. AND IT'S SOMETHING WE FACE IN DEVELOPMENTS ALL THE TIME WHERE, YOU KNOW, WE'RE PUSHING FOR CONNECTIVITY. THE DEVELOPER IS WILLING TO GIVE CONNECTIVITY, AND THE EXISTING FOLKS DON'T WANT THE CONNECTIVITY. AND WE'VE THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES WHERE WE'VE SAID, NO, WE'RE FORCING IT, WE'RE FORCING IT. 
          [00:30:01]
AND THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES WHEN WE'VE SAID, NO, WE UNDERSTAND. AND, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE THE CHARACTER OF THIS DEVELOPMENT AND THAT DEVELOPMENT AND, YOU KNOW, IN THIS DEAL, WE AGREED TO IT. AND SO WHILE I UNDERSTAND THAT OUR PRIORITY IS TO THE TAXPAYING CITIZENS, I ALSO THINK IT'S IMPORTANT FOR US TO KIND OF, YOU KNOW, LIVE UP TO WHAT WE WHAT WE TELL PEOPLE WE'RE GOING TO DO. AND IN THIS CASE, IT'S NOT, YOU KNOW, IT'S THEY DIDN'T THE SHADY OAKS PEOPLE DIDN'T CHANGE ANYTHING, YOU KNOW, AND HONESTLY, THE DEVELOPER DIDN'T CHANGE ANYTHING. THEY'RE, THEY'RE, THEY WERE WILLING TO MAKE THE CONNECTION AT THE FRONT END THE FIRST TIME THEY DID IT. AND WE TOLD THEM NOT TO DO IT. AND SO THAT'S JUST KIND OF MY $0.02. BUT ANYBODY ELSE HAVE COMMENTS? YEAH, I'VE GOT A COMMENT. I NEVER TRIED TO PURCHASE A TICKET TO ANY EVENT AT THE SUN CITY BALLROOM. I HAVE BUT RESTATE THAT. I DIDN'T HEAR IT. I SAID, I'VE NEVER I'VE NEVER ATTEMPTED TO PURCHASE ANY TICKETS AT THE SUN CITY BALLROOM. OKAY, SO YOU'RE NOT COMPETING AGAINST ME. YOU'RE NOT YOU'RE NOT OF THE PROPER AGE. I YEAH, I NEGLECTED THIS LAST TIME BASED ON FEEDBACK I HAD GIVEN ON THE WORKSHOP, BUT I, I DON'T PLAN TO SUPPORT ANY MUDS THAT EXCEED OUR MUD POLICY AS IT PERTAINS TO AGE RESTRICTED HOUSING. AND I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE SAYING, MAYOR, AND I AGREE WITH YOU, BUT JUST IN PRINCIPLE, I THINK IT'S NOT GREAT POLICY. SO I DON'T PLAN TO SUPPORT THE MOTION. SO CAN I JUST ASK A CLARIFYING QUESTION MAYBE FOR THAT FOR RON AND FOR FOR BEN? SO I WAS A LITTLE CAUGHT OFF GUARD BY THE EMAILS THAT I RECEIVED THIS WEEK. I DIDN'T RECEIVE 85, BUT I'M NOT THE SUN CITY REPRESENTATIVE, BUT I DID RECEIVE SEVERAL, NOT EVEN REALIZING THAT THIS WAS A CONCERN OF SUN CITY UNTIL THIS WEEK. SO IS THAT BECAUSE OF THIS AMENDMENT THAT YOU FEEL LIKE THAT, THEN PEOPLE ALL OF A SUDDEN BECAME IN TUNE TO THIS CONVERSATION. I WOULD JUST LIKE TO BETTER UNDERSTAND WHY ALL OF A SUDDEN WE HAVE, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE I AGREE WITH BOTH KEVIN AND THE MAYOR IN THAT WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT THIS FOR A REALLY LONG TIME, AND I HAVE NOT SEEN ANY SUN CITY PRESENCE OR OPPOSITION REALLY ON THIS DAIS EVEN UNTIL TODAY. SO I'M A LITTLE CONCERNED THAT THEN WE WOULD, YOU KNOW, ASK FOR THINGS TO BE POSTPONED AND NOT MOVE FORWARD. I DON'T SEE ANYBODY FROM SUN CITY HERE TONIGHT. I'M A LITTLE SURPRISED BY THAT. SO IS IT THE AMENDMENT WHAT'S CAUSING THE CONCERN? NOW, FROM MY PERSPECTIVE, I'M NOT SURE EVERYONE UNDERSTANDS THE AMENDMENT. I THINK PEOPLE OTHER PEOPLE THOUGHT THAT THIS WOULD BE BECOME A PART OF SUN CITY IMMEDIATELY. AND THIS AMENDMENT IS TALKING ABOUT TREE PRESERVATION AND SO FORTH. AND I DON'T THINK THAT WAS WELL UNDERSTOOD. I HAVE ONLY I RECEIVED ABOUT 30 EMAILS THIS WEEK TO ALL SAYING, WE DON'T WANT TO HAVE ANY MORE HOMES IN SUN CITY, SO I, I WENT OUT ON A LIMB HERE AND TOOK A DIFFERENT APPROACH. I DON'T I THINK IT'S TO OUR BENEFIT BECAUSE OF OUR GOVERNANCE IN SUN CITY TO ADD TO IT NOW RATHER THAN AS THE AS THE MAYOR SAID, YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN THERE ON THAT PLOT NEXT. IF IT DOESN'T BECOME. SO. I THINK TONIGHT WE'RE JUST VOTING ON THE WOODWARD WOODBRIDGE TRACK, NOT THE THOMPSON TRACK. CORRECT. RIGHT. YES, SIR. AND SO THEY WE ALREADY KNOW WHAT'S GOING THERE. IF WE TURN THIS DOWN, IT'S WOODBRIDGE. CORRECT. AND THAT WOODSIDE, WOODSIDE, WOODSIDE IT'S WOODSIDE, IT'S GOING THERE. SO TONIGHT'S VOTE IS ONLY IS IS THIS GOING TO IS WOODSIDE GOING TO BE CONTIGUOUS. OR IS THE ACTIVE ADULT CONTINUING AREA GOING TO BE CONTIGUOUS. AND WE WERE TOLD THE REASON THEY WANT TO MAKE IT INTO AN ACTIVE ADULT COMMUNITY. SUN CITY THEY SAID I THINK THEY USED THAT WORD IS BECAUSE THEY CAN GET A PREMIUM OF A COUPLE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS IF IT'S HAS A SUN CITY NAME ON IT AND NOT A WOODSIDE NAME ON IT. AND TO ME IT'S THE SAME HOUSES, IT'S THE SAME LAYOUT, EVERYTHING'S THE SAME, EXCEPT THEY WANT TO RENAME IT SOMETHING DIFFERENT SO THAT THEY CAN MAKE MORE MONEY. THAT THAT IS THE WAY IT LOOKS TO ME. AND I MISS SOMETHING. YEAH. I MEAN, IT ALSO GIVES US MORE MONEY IF IT'S WORTH, IF IT'S $200,000 PREMIUM, THAT'S, YOU KNOW, MORE PROPERTY TAX WE RECEIVE. TO WHICH AGAIN, IS WHY I KEEP COMING BACK TO THE BENEFIT TO THE CITY IS DEMONSTRABLE, YOU KNOW. RIGHT. WELL, I ONLY ASKED ■THAT QUESTION BECAUSE I WAS SURPRISED. AND, YOU KNOW, WHAT I WOULD SAY IS THAT IT WOULD BE GREAT TO HAVE SUN CITY A LITTLE MORE ACTIVE ON THE FRONT END OF, OF A, OF A PROJECT IF THEY WERE, YOU KNOW, SO CONCERNED ABOUT, YOU KNOW, THESE THINGS SUCH AS, YOU KNOW, NEEDING MORE AMENITIES AND, YOU KNOW, THE OVERALL DEVELOPMENT. SO BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, I WOULD AGREE, THE REASON I, I WOULD NOT BE 
          [00:35:03]
SUPPORTIVE OF MORE ACTIVE ADULT IF THIS WAS NOT THIS CONTIGUOUS AND ALSO HEARING, YOU KNOW, THE REASONING BEHIND, YOU KNOW, GETTING A HIGHER QUALITY PRODUCT AT A HIGHER PRICE POINT, THOSE SELLING QUICKER AND THEREFORE THAT'S MORE TAXABLE INCOME FOR THE CITY. YOU KNOW, WHEREAS I AM SYMPATHETIC TO THE CONCERNS OF, OF SUN CITY, I THINK WE'RE JUST TOO FAR DOWN THE ROAD IN TRYING TO, YOU KNOW, TO MAKE THIS WORK TO, TO BACKTRACK NOW. SO I INTEND TO SUPPORT THIS AT THIS POINT. BUT JUST FOR THE RECORD, OTHER ACTIVE ADULT COMMUNITIES THAT ARE NOT CONTIGUOUS, YOU KNOW, AND THINGS WOULD NOT BE SOMETHING THAT I WOULD BE SUPPORTIVE OF MOVING FORWARD. THANKS. AND I LIKE TO ANSWER AMANDA'S QUESTION. SO ONE OF THE THINGS, OR SEVERAL OF THE THINGS I THINK THAT BROUGHT THIS UP IS THE SOMERSET HILLS SUBDIVISION, WHERE ALL OF A SUDDEN THEY'RE PAYING $0.29, WHICH THEY WEREN'T BEFORE, AND THEY DIDN'T KNOW THAT THEY HAD TO PAY IT SOME 76 OR 76 OUT OF 91. THEY NEVER SIGNED THE DOCUMENT. SO THAT PUTS A BAD TASTE IN THEIR MOUTH. THEY'RE FINALLY REALIZING, BECAUSE I GUESS WHENEVER THIS WAS ORIGINALLY PROPOSED, THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE LIVING IN SUN CITY ON THE FAR SIDE OF THE CREEK WAS MINIMAL. I MEAN, RIGHT NOW THEY ONLY HAVE MAYBE 50 OR 60 HOUSES BUILT OVER THERE. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE NUMBER IS. SO YES, IF YOU SAY THIS DEVELOPMENT THAT HAS SHADY OAKS IS BUILT OUT VERSUS THE FIRST 50 PEOPLE THAT MOVE INTO TO SUN CITY ON THAT SIDE OF THE CREEK, YOU'RE NOT GOING TO GET THAT MUCH PUSHBACK. BUT AS MORE AND MORE PEOPLE ARE MOVING IN, I GET MORE AND MORE EMAILS SAYING, WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO GET GET US CONNECTED? AND I TELL THEM, LISTEN, YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN TOLD I WENT TO THE THE SALES CENTER AND THEY SAY THEY TOLD YOU BEFORE THAT, THAT YOUR ONLY ACCESS WAS RONALD REAGAN OR THE HIGHWAY. 
          NOW, I DON'T KNOW IF THAT WAS STATED OR NOT, BUT THE SALES CENTER TOLD ME THAT THAT'S WHAT THEY TELL THE PEOPLE. AND OF COURSE, THEY SAY THEY NEVER TOLD ME THAT. AND I DON'T WANT TO GET OUT ON RONALD REAGAN. THE SPEED LIMIT IS TOO FAST. IT'S DANGEROUS. IN FACT, WE'VE LOWERED THE SPEED LIMIT BECAUSE OF THAT STATE. HIGHWAY 195 IS ANOTHER ONE THAT THEY DON'T WANT TO GET OUT ON. THEY WOULD LIKE TO JUST GET IN THEIR CAR, GO 30, 35 MILES AN HOUR, AND DRIVE OVER TO THE AMENITY CENTERS, TO THE BALLROOM, TO THE WOODWORKING SHOP. AND NOW THAT WE HAVE MORE PEOPLE OVER THERE, YOU MIGHT GET A LOT MORE PUSHBACK ON THIS CONNECTION. I DON'T KNOW, BUT I AM SURPRISED THAT SUN CITY IS NOT HERE TONIGHT TO TO SAY ANYTHING. 
          CONSIDERING ALL THE EMAILS I GOT, I THOUGHT THAT THERE WOULD BE PACKED. BUT ANYWAY, I SHARE THAT. I SHARE THAT WITH YOU BEN. I'M SURPRISED TOO. I REALLY AM. WELL, I DON'T UNLESS WE HAVE ANY MORE DISCUSSION. WE'VE GOT A MOTION AND A SECOND. ALL IN FAVOR AND ALL OPPOSED. AND JAKE 
          [6.C First and Final Reading - Ordinance for Utility System Revenue Bonds, Series 2026A]
AND BEN ARE OPPOSED. THAT PASSES. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU NICK. THAT BRINGS US TO UTILITY REVENUE BONDS. AND SHE'S GOING TO TELL US ABOUT THAT. ALL RIGHT. GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. LEE WALLACE CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER WE DID HAVE A REVENUE BOND SALE TODAY FOR OUR WATER UTILITY. IT WAS A $50 MILLION AND IT SUPPORTS THE GEORGETOWN REGIONAL WATER INITIATIVE, WHICH IS A SET OF PROJECTS THAT WILL RECEIVE AND TRANSMIT NEW SUPPLIES OF WATER INTO GEORGETOWN. AND THE. THIS DEBT IS SUPPORTED BY THE UTILITY RATES FOR WATER THAT WERE ADOPTED AND ARE EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 1ST. SO WE HELD A COMPETITIVE SALE THIS MORNING AT 9 A.M. AND YOU CAN SEE HERE THAT WE RECEIVED 11 TOTAL BIDS AND THE WINNING BID, OR AT LEAST THE LOWEST BID THAT WE'RE RECOMMENDING THAT YOU APPROVE IS FOR WELLS FARGO BANK AT 4.983%. THAT IS ONE OF THE HIGHER INTEREST RATES THAT WE'VE SEEN IN QUITE A WHILE. 
          BUT WE GENERALLY CAN MODEL OUR DEBT SERVICE AT CONSERVATIVE RATES. AND SO THIS WAS MODELED AT 5%. SO WE'RE JUST SLIGHTLY UNDER THERE. WE ARE PLEASED THAT WE GOT A LOT OF BIDS CONSIDERING HOW THE MARKET IS PERFORMING LATELY WITH NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL POLITICAL 
          [00:40:01]
EVENTS. SO WE DO RECOMMEND THAT WE GO AHEAD AND MOVE FORWARD WITH APPROVAL, AS WE'RE NOT ANTICIPATING THAT DELAYING FOR A WEEK OR TWO WOULD PRODUCE ANY BETTER RESULTS. SO I'LL GO AHEAD AND READ THE CAPTION AND THEN I CAN TAKE ANY QUESTIONS, CONSIDERATION AND POSSIBLE ACTION TO APPROVE ON FIRST AND FINAL READING AND ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING THE CITY OF GEORGETOWN, TEXAS. UTILITY SYSTEM REVENUE BONDS SERIES 2026 A PLEDGING CERTAIN REVENUES IN SUPPORT OF THE BONDS, APPROVING AN OFFICIAL STATEMENT AND A PAYING AGENT REGISTRAR AGREEMENT, AWARDING THE SALE OF THE BONDS, AND AUTHORIZING OTHER MATTERS RELATING TO THE BONDS. ANY QUESTIONS FOR LEE? ALL RIGHT, I'LL ENTERTAIN A MOTION MOVE APPROVAL OF THE ORDINANCE AS READ. SECOND, ALL IN FAVOR? ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. 
          [6.D First Reading - Ordinance amending Section 13.04.180, "Rates & Charges - Solid Waste Disposal - Schedule]
THAT WAS A LOT EASIER. ALL RIGHT, APRIL, LET'S SEE IF IT GOES BACK AND FORTH. MAYBE YOURS IS GOING TO BE REALLY HARD TO. OH, NO. EASY, EASY. DON'T JINX ME. DON'T JINX ME. 
          GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. APRIL HOYE, ASSISTANT PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR. I AM HERE FOR THE FIRST READING OF THE SOLID WASTE RATE ORDINANCE. I'LL DO THE CAPTION AT THE END, IF THAT'S OKAY WITH YOU GUYS. SO HERE IS A MONTHLY RESIDENTIAL RATE COMPARISON. YOU CAN SEE OUR CURRENT RATE. WE'RE IN THIRD PLACE. IF YOU TAKE OUT A PROPOSED RATE, WE STAY IN THIRD PLACE. IF WE ADD OUR PROPOSED RATE IN THAT DASHED LINE RIGHT THERE IS THE AVERAGE WITHOUT AUSTIN. SO WE'RE RIGHT IN LINE WITH THAT. AT THE PROPOSED RATE OF 2602 FOR RESIDENTIAL. THIS IS A SNAPSHOT OF INCREASES FOR RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL. IF YOU RECALL FROM OUR JUNE COST OF SERVICE STUDY, THE INCREASE IS RECOMMENDED ARE 5% RESIDENTIAL AND 8% COMMERCIAL. 
          SO OUR RESIDENTIAL TIER ONE, WHICH IS MOST OF OUR RESIDENTIAL, IS IT WOULD BE $1.24. AND THEN FOR OUR COMMERCIAL EIGHT YARD AT ONE A WEEK, IT'S AN 1833 INCREASE. 
          PART OF THE COST OF SERVICE STUDY WAS TO DISCUSS A 15% RATE INCREASE FOR THE COMMERCIAL CUSTOMERS THAT USE A SHARED. THE SHARED DUMPSTER SYSTEM IN THE NINE BLOCK CORE. WE HAVE NOT RAISED THEIR RATES ALONG WITH OUR TRADITIONAL INCREASES, AND THIS WILL JUST BETTER ALIGN WITH THE REVENUES OR BETTER ALIGN REVENUES WITH THE COST OF PROVIDING SOLID WASTE AND RECYCLING SERVICES IN THAT AREA. AND DO YOU WANT ME TO DO THE CAPTION? OKAY, FIRST READING OF AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GEORGETOWN, TEXAS, AMENDING SECTION 13.04.180 TITLED RATES AND CHARGES SOLID WASTE DISPOSAL SCHEDULE OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES OF THE CITY OF GEORGETOWN. REPEALING CONFLICTING ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS, INCLUDING A SEVERABILITY CLAUSE AND ESTABLISHING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. 
          I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. ANY QUESTIONS FOR APRIL? ALL RIGHT. I'LL ENTERTAIN A MOTION. I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE ORDINANCE. READ. SECOND. ANY DISCUSSION NEEDED? ALL IN FAVOR? ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU, MA'AM. ALL RIGHT. NICK, YOU'RE UP LAST. OKAY, SO 
          [6.E First Reading - Levying Special Assessments for Heirloom PID]
HERE FOR THE HEIRLOOM PYD. THIS IS THE FIRST READING OF THE PIT ASSESSMENT ORDINANCE. AS YOU ALL KNOW, I'VE STOOD BEFORE YOU QUITE A FEW TIMES ON HEIRLOOM WITH THE PYD. WE'VE TALKED BEFORE. THE GREAT THING ABOUT MUD'S NOT GOING TO SAY ANYTHING ABOUT MUD'S, BUT THE GREAT THING ABOUT PDS IS THERE'S A LOT OF TRANSPARENCY. A LOT COMES BEFORE YOU. AND SO IF IT FEELS LIKE THIS IS THE EIGHTH TIME I'VE BEEN UP HERE, IT PROBABLY IS. I DON'T KNOW THE NUMBER EXACTLY, BUT SO HERE TONIGHT FOR THIS ITEM, HERE'S JUST THE TIMELINE OF, OF WHERE WE'RE AT. WE HAD THE, THE RESOLUTION APPROVING THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE DEVELOPMENT AND CONSTRUCTION AGREEMENT. WE ALSO HAD THE RESOLUTION FOR THE SAP, THE ASSESSMENT RULES AND THE PUBLIC HEARING ON LEVYING THE ASSESSMENTS. TONIGHT, WE'VE GOT THE YOU HAD THE TWO ITEMS THAT WERE ON CONSENT. AND THEN HERE WE'VE GOT THE FIRST READING OF THE ASSESSMENT ORDINANCE. AND THEN WE HAVE A NUMBER OF ITEMS THAT WILL COME IN IN OCTOBER RELATED TO THE ACTUAL ISSUANCE OF THE OF THE BONDS. JUST A REMINDER OF THE, THE LOCATION OF THIS DEVELOPMENT. SO THIS ORDINANCE LEVIES ASSESSMENTS ON ASSESSED PROPERTY WITHIN THE DISTRICT AND APPROVE AND APPROVES THE FOLLOWING RELATED DOCUMENTS AND AGREEMENTS. SO ATTACHED TO THIS IS THE SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN, WHICH, AS WE'VE WE'VE TALKED ABOUT BEFORE, IT LAYS OUT. BASICALLY THE SERVICE SIDE IS, IS ALL THE PROJECTS THAT ARE APPROVED. AND THEN THE ASSESSMENT SIDE IS, IS HOW THE PROPERTIES WILL ACTUALLY GET ASSESSED TO PAY FOR THOSE 
          [00:45:06]
PROJECTS. SO THE AUTHORIZED IMPROVEMENTS AND ALL OF THIS COMES FROM THE AMENDED DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT THAT YOU ALL HAVE SEEN BEFORE. SO THE AUTHORIZED IMPROVEMENTS ARE STREETS AND THE, THE BIG STREET THAT'S HERE IS THE HEIRLOOM PARKWAY COLLECTOR ROADWAY. 
          THERE'S WATERLINES, WASTEWATER LINES, DRAINAGE, DRAINAGE INFRASTRUCTURE. AND THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE THE PONDS THAT WE TALKED ABOUT BEFORE. THIS IS JUST THE DRAINAGE INFRASTRUCTURE THAT IS ELIGIBLE THAT WILL REMAIN PUBLIC. SOME PARKLAND IMPROVEMENTS, LANDSCAPING AND THEN SOFT COSTS. AND WITH THAT, I'M HAPPY TO READ THE CAPTION. AN ORDINANCE LEVYING, LEVYING SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS FOR AND APPORTIONING THE COSTS OF CERTAIN IMPROVEMENTS TO PROPERTY IN AND FOR THE HEIRLOOM PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT, MAJOR IMPROVEMENT AREA. FIXING A CHARGE AND LEAN AGAINST ALL PROPERTIES WITHIN THE MAJOR IMPROVEMENT AREA OF THE DISTRICT AND THE OWNERS THEREOF, PROVIDING FOR THE MANNER AND METHOD OF COLLECTION OF SUCH ASSESSMENTS. PROVIDING FOR PENALTIES AND INTEREST ON DELINQUENT ASSESSMENTS. MAKING A FINDING OF SPECIAL BENEFIT TO PROPERTY IN THE DISTRICT AND THE REAL AND TRUE OWNERS THEREOF. APPROVING A SERVICE AND ASSESSMENT PLAN, PROVIDING A SEVERABILITY CLAUSE AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. THANK YOU SIR. ANY QUESTIONS FOR NICK ON THIS? SLIGHTLY RELATED. NOT DIRECTLY. EARLIER TONIGHT, WE VOTED TO LOWER THE SPEED LIMIT ON 195 FOR SCHOOL ZONE. HEIRLOOM HAS A AREA THAT THEY'VE DESIGNATED FOR SCHOOLS. 
          YES, SIR. IS THERE ANYTHING THAT WE CAN DO TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT SCHOOL ZONE IS NOT IMPACTING WILLIAMS DRIVE OR WHATEVER IT'S CALLED OUT THERE SO THAT THEY PUT ALL THEIR STREETS, INTERIOR OF THIS AREA SO THAT WE WON'T HAVE TO PUT ANOTHER SCHOOL ZONE ON A MAJOR ROAD. OKAY. YEAH, I THINK I UNDERSTAND THE QUESTION. SO IT'S UNKNOWN AT THIS TIME WHAT TYPE OF SCHOOL WOULD BE LOCATED THERE. I MEAN, IT'S THE SIZE THAT WOULD POTENTIALLY BE A HIGH SCHOOL. IT'S A PRETTY LARGE SITE. THE I MEAN, HONESTLY, THE BIGGEST THING THAT WOULD HELP THAT IS, IS THE PROJECT THAT WAS APPROVED IN THIS, WHICH IS THAT COLLECTOR ROAD. BASICALLY THE WHOLE INFRASTRUCTURE FOR THIS AREA WAS, WAS VERY WELL COORDINATED BETWEEN THE DEVELOPER AND THE SCHOOL DISTRICT. AND PART OF THAT WAS MAKING SURE THE ROAD INFRASTRUCTURE WAS SET UP TO SERVE WHATEVER SCHOOL ENDS UP THERE IN THE FUTURE. THERE'S NO NEAR-TERM PLANS FOR ANY SCHOOL IN THAT SITE. SO I THINK IT'S AS WELL SET UP AS IT CAN BE. I CAN'T GUARANTEE YOU THERE WON'T BE, BUT IT'S WELL SET UP TO TRY AND LET'S PUSH FOR IT TO BE. 
          THANK YOU. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? ALL RIGHT. ENTERTAIN A MOTION. MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE ITEM SIX E AS WRITTEN. SECOND, ANY OTHER DISCUSSION NEEDED? ALL IN FAVOR? ALL RIGHT. THAT PASSES.
