WE WERE LITERALLY READY FOR ENCORE TO TURN THE ELECTRICITY ON AND THEY SAID, HOLD ON. NO, WE CAN'T DO IT BECAUSE OF SOME BURBAGE THAT WAS INCORRECT ON SOME FORM, AND HE WAS ABLE TO TALK TO THAT PERSON. AND MAKE IT HAPPEN. AND I THINK IT'S JUST A TESTAMENT TO THE STAFF HERE AT AT AND WILEY BECAUSE HE COULD VERY EASILY HAVE SAID. I'VE DONE MY PART.

MOVE INTO OUR REGULAR AGENDA, WHICH NOW STARTS WITH ITEM F. WHICH IS TO CONSIDER AND ACT UPON ORDINANCE NUMBER 2023 54 FOR A CHANGE IN ZONING FROM COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR CCT COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR. SPECIAL USE PERMIT. C. C S U P ON 0.4496 ACRES TO ALLOW FOR AUTOMOBILE REPAIR. MINOR USED PROPERTY LOCATED AT 403 SOUTH STATE HIGHWAY 78 ZONING CASE, 20 23-17. MR HASKINS. UM. AMERICAN AND I'M HAPPY TO GO AHEAD. SO THANK YOU. I KNOW. I ASKED FOR THIS ITEM TO BE POLLED. WE DID HAVE A DISCUSSION LAST TIME ABOUT BRINGING AN ORDINANCE FORWARD TO TONIGHT, BUT, UM UPON DOING A LITTLE MORE INSPECTION PERSONALLY IN LOOKING AT THE PROPERTY AND THE CONDITION THAT IT'S IN, UM MY CONCERN WITH THE S U P E IS AS STATED TO IF AND CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG. THAT S U P WOULD NOT ONLY BE FOR THIS OWNER, BUT IT WOULD CARRY FORWARD ON THE PROPERTY. AND SO MY CONCERN IS WITH THE PROPERTY ALREADY BEING IN ROUGH A LITTLE ROUGHER SHAPE AGAIN. DON'T WANT TO INSULT ANYONE. BUT IT IS AN OLDER PROPERTY AND ROUGHER SHAPE. MY CONCERN WOULD BE IF THAT WERE TO CHANGE HANDS A COUPLE OF TIMES IN THE FUTURE WITH THAT S U P THERE WOULD BE NO NO REQUIREMENTS POTENTIALLY TO TRY TO BRING IMPROVEMENTS TO THAT BUILDING DOWN THE ROAD. UM AND SO WHAT I HAD REACHED OUT TO STAFF AND ASKED ABOUT IS, IF IT'S POSSIBLE AS WE'VE DONE IN THE PAST. TO ATTACH, UM, ESSENTIALLY A CLAUSE THAT STATES THAT THE S U P IS ONLY IN EFFECT FOR THIS PARTICULAR USER. UM AND IT IS POSSIBLE, BUT AGAIN, THAT'S AT THE WILL AND PLEASURE OF COUNCIL. UM SO WITH ME HAVING THROWN THAT OUT, I'D BE OPEN TO QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS THAT THAT OTHER MEMBERS MIGHT HAVE FOR STAFF OR IN GENERAL COUNCILMAN STRENGTH. THANK YOU, MAYOR. FOR MY POINT OF VIEW, THE SCP SHOULD NOT BE TRANSFERRED TO ANYONE ELSE. IF THE CHANGES HANDS OR ANY OF THAT KIND OF STUFF. OKAY? ANYONE HAVE A QUESTION ON WHAT'S BEING PROPOSED OR WHAT I HAVE. STAY ASKED THEN COUNCILMAN WILLIAMS. THANK YOU, MAYOR. MR HASKINS. WHAT'S THE DOWNSIDE TO DOING THAT? UM IN YOUR OPINION FROM A ZONING WHAT MAYOR SAYING AS FAR AS HAVING CONTROL ON UPDATING THE BUILDING, BUT IS THERE ANY DOWNSIDE YOU CAN SEE FROM THAT? UH FROM THE SUV REVERTING BACK TO NORMAL CC ZONING, CORRECT? UM I DON'T REALLY SEE A DOWNSIDE AT ALL IN THAT PRETTY NORMAL ON S UPS FOR THEM TO GO BACK TO. YEAH THEY'RE THE ONE STANDARD ZONING. YEAH THE ONE DOWNSIDE. I WOULD BE CONCERNED ABOUT. IS JUST IF SOME , UH IF THIS PERSON EVER SOLD THAT BUSINESS WITH SOMEBODY ELSE AND THAT WASN'T RELAYED BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW TITLE COMPANY BUSINESS, BUT YOU KNOW WHETHER THAT'S A NECESSARY THING THAT YOU HAVE TO YOU KNOW IF THEY IF THAT PERSON DOESN'T DO THEIR DUE DILIGENCE, THEY MAY ENTER INTO AGREEMENT THAT WITHOUT TALKING TO US. 1ST MAY NOT BE USABLE IS THE APPLICANT THE OWNER? YES THEY ARE NOW THE PROPERTY. YES, THEY HAVE PURCHASED IT. WAS THAT JUST SINCE OUR LAST COUNCIL MEETING BELIEVE IT WAS AFTER A PNG S RECOMMENDATION OF APPROVAL , OKAY THAT IT WAS BOUGHT FROM THE OLD PROPERTY OWNER. OKAY I DON'T THINK THAT WAS THE 19TH OF OCTOBER IS WHEN IT CHANGED HANDS IS THE OWNER HERE. NO. THANK YOU. YOU'RE WELCOME. OKAY? COUNCILMAN STRAIN. THANK YOU, MAYOR. I THINK HE MADE A GOOD POINT. PEOPLE DON'T DO THAT. DO GENERAL AGENCE MY RESPONSES. 
          CAVEAT EMPTOR. PEOPLE, PEOPLE. PEOPLE JUST NEED TO DO THEIR DEAL. DILIGENCE AND IF THEY DON'T BOMBER. THAT'S SO MY POSITION. OKAY? COUNCILMAN MALIKI, UM. I ASKED THIS LAST TIME, AND I VOTED NO AGAINST THIS LAST TIME, BUT JUST FOR CLARIFICATION. THEY WILL OPEN SIDE DOORS. IS THAT CORRECT? THE DOORS WILL BE ON THE LEFT SIDE. THE FRONT DOORS WILL BE ONLY ONE DOOR WOULD BE LEFT THE WAY IT IS, BUT THEY'LL HAVE GARAGE DOORS FOR THE COURSE TO GO IN ON 
          [00:10:03]
THE ON THE ELEVATION CHANGES FROM THE WILLIAMS STREET IS THAT CORRECT? ONE OF THE REASONS WHY I VOTED. NO, IS THAT IF YOU LOOK THE DEPTH BETWEEN WILLIAM STREET AND THE GARAGE DOORS OPEN, THAT CAR HAS TO BE VERY CAREFUL BACK IN AUTO GOING IN. WHEN YOU GO INTO THAT PROPERTY FOR THAT REASON, AND THAT REASON ONLY I VOTED NO FOR IT BECAUSE I THINK IT'S VERY UNSAFE FOR IT TO COME OUT OF THE GARAGE OUT OF THE BUILDING IS STRAIGHT TO THE STREET. YOU WON'T HAVE THE LENGTH OF THE CAR TO GO BEFORE YOU TURNED INTO THE INTO THE STREETS, SO GOT IT. NO LESS TIME AND I THINK, DEFINITELY IF AT LEAST THE ATTRIBUTION NOT BE TRANSFERRED. YES, SIR. SOME MR HASKINS TO FOLLOW UP ON THE COMMENT THAT MY COLLEAGUE MADE. UM I KNOW WE TYPICALLY TRY TO AVOID HAVING PEOPLE. BACKING OUT, SO TO SPEAK, OR INTO CITY STREETS. YES, SIR. UM IS THAT A CONCERN AT THIS LOCATION WITH THE LOCATION OF THOSE BAY DOORS. YES, SIR. SO IT IS. YEAH, WE, UM . WE TRIED TO TAKE IT ON A CASE BY CASE BASIS. UM IT'S GONNA BE BUSY. AT TIMES. IT WILL BE NOT BUSY AT OTHER TIMES. UM BUT YES, ANYTIME YOU HAVE ANYBODY BACKING OUT ONTO WHAT IS ESSENTIALLY A COMMERCIAL STREET. THERE'S A LEVEL OF CONCERN WHAT THAT LEVEL OF HIS CONCERN IS. I'M NOT THE EXPERT THERE, BUT THERE IS A LEVEL OF CONCERN. OKAY COUNCILMAN WILLIAMS. THANK YOU. 
          MAYOR TWO THINGS ONE. I WOULD RESPECTFULLY CORRECT. I THINK THERE IS ENOUGH ROOM FOR A CAR JUST OUTSIDE THE BAY DOOR. BUT I THINK THAT THEY MIGHT BE ON THE EASEMENT THERE RATHER THAN ON THE STREET. AS FAR AS THE AMOUNT OF SPACE BETWEEN THE BAY DOOR AND THE STREET AND LOOKING AT THE PICTURES WITH THE DUMPSTER ASIDE ON THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. BUT THE POINT IS STILL MADE AND UNDERSTAND THAT ONCE YOU'RE THERE, BACKING THAT THEY'RE GOING TO BE BACK IN OR OUT ON THE STREETS STILL HAVE TO DO ONE OR THE OTHER. THAT IS CORRECT. IT'S NOT AN IDEAL SITUATION. THE ONLY THING I WAS GOING TO SUGGEST OUT OF COMPLETE FAIRNESS IS THAT IF WE'RE GOING TO CHANGE WHAT WE HAD ON THE CONSENT AGENDA THAT WE POSSIBLY LOOK AT TABLING AND GIVING THE OWNER THE OPPORTUNITY TO COME ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. BEFORE MAKING THAT CHANGE FROM OUR LAST MEETING, OKAY, BECAUSE I DON'T THINK IT'S VERY FAIR. FOR US TO HAVE MADE A DECISION AND THAT DECISION IS DONE AND THEN THEM NOT THINK THAT THEY NEEDED TO BE HERE FOR A REASON TO BE ABLE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. OR NOT, UNLESS YOU THINK, AND THAT'S WHERE I'M GOING WITH THIS UNLESS YOU THINK US TABLING. IT WILL ACTUALLY HURT THE OWNER. I WAS GOING TO SAY I DON'T WANT TO SPEAK FOR HIM BECAUSE HE'S NOT HERE. BUT I'M GOING TO, UM, IN THAT. WE DON'T HAVE A SECOND MEETING IN DECEMBER, AND THIS GENTLEMAN IS OBVIOUSLY ALREADY BOUGHT THE PROPERTY AND THIS ITEM BEING TABLED THIS EVENING WOULD PUSH HIM 5 TO 6 WEEKS FROM BEING ABLE TO PULL PERMITS OR ANYTHING BECAUSE HE DOESN'T HAVE ZONING. THAT BEING SAID, AND THIS IS MY WAY AROUND THAT, UM, LET ME SAID IF HE DOES HAVE A CONCERN ABOUT THAT IT'S NOT IMPOSSIBLE FOR HIM TO BRING THAT CONCERN IN FRONT OF US AFTER WE'VE ALREADY MADE THIS ISSUE, P CHANGE AND US IF WE MAKE A DECISION TO CHANGE AGAIN, REVERT SOMETHING WE CAN DO THAT LATER. AND THAT WOULD THAT WOULD HIT BOTH. HMM POSSIBILITIES I DON'T THINK THE BACKING OF THE BACKING OF THE CARS INTO THE STREET ONCE THIS ZONING IS APPROVED. I DON'T FEEL THAT THERE'S ANYTHING THAT WE CAN DO AFTER THAT. I'M JUST TALKING ABOUT THE, UH UM, UM, S U P NOT CARRYING OVER TO THE NEXT TO THE NEXT OWNER. I'M JUST TALKING ABOUT THAT IF WE GO AHEAD AND APPROVE NOW WITH IT WITH IT, TERMINATING UPON WELL AS IT SO HAPPENS AND IF HE WANTS TO COME LATER AND TALK TO US ABOUT HEY, I DIDN'T GET TO DEFEND THAT. I'D LIKE TO X Y Z. WE CAN RECONSIDER. THAT SURE HE COULD ALSO APPLY FOR ANOTHER ISSUE P TO TAKE TRY TO TAKE THAT PROVISION OUT. IT'S NOT A DONE DEAL MORNING NOT TO HURT HIM. 
          THAT'S MY GOAL. MY GOAL. I DON'T WANT TO HURT HIM, BUT I WANT TO MAKE SURE WE DON'T TAKE AN OPPORTUNITY. I THINK IT'S THEIR FULL INTENTION TO OWN AND OPERATE THE BUSINESS. SO THAT HELPS ME. THANK YOU. YOU'RE WELCOME. THANK GOOD QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS. DOES ANYONE ELSE HAVE QUESTION OR COMMENT ON THIS ITEM. COUNCILMAN MALIKI. I HAVE ONE MORE QUESTION. LAST TIME WE DISCUSSED AND I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE IT WILL BE ON THE S U P THAT THERE IS NO PARKING OVERNIGHT OR OUTSIDE IN FRONT OF THIS BUILDING. IT'S NOT IN THE S U P. BUT THAT'S BY ORDINANCE SO IT WILL BE ON ITS ON THE ORDINANCE ALREADY. YES, SIR. ZONING ORDINANCE DOES NOT ALLOW FOR OVERNIGHT PARKING FOR VEHICLES THAT ARE BEING FIXED. IF HE PULLS ONE INSIDE, YOU KNOW, AND IT STAYS THERE. THAT'S FINE. YOU KNOW. INSIDE THE BUILDING ITSELF IS FINE. THANK YOU. YOU'RE WELCOME. I APOLOGIZE JUST TO FOLLOW UP. THERE WERE NO REQUEST TO ADD ADDITIONAL BAY 
          [00:15:06]
DOORS. IT'S JUST THE ELEVATIONS ARE NOT CHANGED, TOO. I'M SORRY, SIR. I'M SHOWING JUST TWO. YES THEY WERE TO MAKE SUBSTANTIAL CHANGES TO THE BUILDING. WOULD THEY THEN HAVE TO MAKE SURE THEY BROUGHT EVERYTHING UP AS FAR AS CODE AND REPAIRS AND THINGS LIKE THAT. YES, SIR. OKAY. IF THEY ADDED SOMETHING LIKE THAT WE WOULD ASK HIM TO GO TO P AND Z FOR A SITE PLAN APPROVAL. OKAY AND THEN THEY'RE OPENING UP THEMSELVES TO STUFF LIKE, WELL, WHY ARE YOU BACKING OUT ON THE STREET? AND YOU KNOW, THAT'S ENOUGH, AND THAT'S WHY I WAS ASKING BECAUSE IT LOOKS LIKE THERE'S ONLY A COUPLE OF DOORS THAT ARE A BAY DOORS THAT FACE THAT STREET. JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE WASN'T A PLAN TO TURN THAT INTO SEVEN OR EIGHT FOR I GUESS I WOULD SAY HAVE MUCH BUSIER. UM NUMBER OF IN AND OUTS DURING THE DAY ON THAT STREET, AS OPPOSED TO WITH TWO. 
          YOU'RE ONLY GONNA HAVE SO MANY THAT ARE GOING ON. YES SIR. THE ONLY INTENT WITH THE SCP IS TO USE THE PROPERTY AS IS EXCEPT THE POLE SIGN WILL GO AWAY AND TURN INTO MONUMENT SIGN IN ORDER TO MOVE THE PROPERTY CLOSER TO WHAT OUR CURRENT REQUIREMENTS ARE. OKAY? THAT ANSWERS MY QUESTIONS. SO WITH THAT UH, IF THERE ARE NO OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS, I WOULD BE OPEN TO A MOTION ON THE ITEM. GO AHEAD. HOW DO WE WANT TO HANDLE THAT? SOMEONE WANTED TO MAKE A MOTION? OBVIOUSLY WE CAN APPROVE OR DENY IF SOMEONE WANTED TO PUT THE CONDITION ON FOR IT NOT TO BE. A TRANSFERABLE SGP. HOW HAVE LANGUAGE ALREADY FOR WHERE THEY WHEN MARKET WHEN THE MAYOR CONTACTED STAFF, WE WENT AHEAD AND PREPARED ANOTHER ITEM JUST IN CASE WE HAVE AN EXHIBIT B THAT COULD BE SWAPPED WITH THIS EXHIBIT B. UM SO THAT WAY WE WOULDN'T HAVE TO TABLE IT AND DELAY THE OWNER FOR ANOTHER FIVE WEEKS. SO IF THAT'S THE WILL OF COUNCIL THAN, UH, HOW WOULD WE MAKE A MOTION YOU CAN MAKE A MOTION TO PROVIDE STAFF DIRECTION TO MAKE THE CHANGE TO ADD WHATEVER STIPULATIONS YOU WANT TO CHANGE IN THE S U P CONDITIONS AND THEN GO FROM THERE. YOU WANT TO READ WHAT WE HAD ADDED AS SECTION TWO POINT OR 3.2 IN THAT WAY COUNCIL WOULD KNOW GENERALLY WHAT THEY'RE NO, THAT WOULD BE GREAT. OR I CAN. YOU KNOW WHEN THERE IS A EXHIBIT B SECTION 2.3 A AND B OR YEAH, THREE. JUST BE THAT'S CHANGING. THE WHOLE SECTION THREE IS WHAT CHANGED THAT ARE SECTION 2.3. I'M SORRY, GENERAL CONDITIONS NUMBER, MIND STEPPING, SHOWING ME EXACTLY TWO AND THREE. JUST THREE. OKAY SO THE ENTIRE THING OKAY, SO SINCE SINCE I HAVE THIS, I WILL GO AHEAD AND OFFER A MOTION. TO APPROVE. WITH DIRECT WITH THE ADDITION OF GIVING STAFF DIRECTION TO INCLUDE UM, UNDER EXHIBIT B GENERAL CONDITIONS. THE NEW SECTION THREE AND A AND B. WOULD THAT BE SUFFICIENT? MISS STORM? WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE ME TO READ IT AND YOU NEED TO READ IT. I'LL AMEND THAT MOTION TO STATE AND GET WITH AUTHORIZING STAFF TO ADD. UNDER EXHIBIT B. TO GENERAL CONDITIONS, ADDING THREE THE SPECIAL USE PERMITS YOU AUTOMATICALLY TERMINATE AND BE RESCINDED WITHOUT FURTHER ACTION BY THE CITY OR CITY COUNCIL AND THE PROPERTY REVERTED TO THE UNDERLYING COMMERCIAL CORRIDOR.

YOU'VE GOT TREASURE CHEST BACK THEIR CANNONS. YOU KNOW, THERE'S ALL KINDS OF DIFFERENT STRUCTURES FOR KIDS TO PLAY, EVEN ON THE GROUND. UM OCTOPUS COMING UP OUT OF THE GROUND OR OUT OF THE WATER. 
          SORRY. AND LIKE I SAID, THERE'S A LOT OF SLIDES ON THIS. THE NEAT THING ABOUT THESE SLIDES, TOO, IS THERE'S SOMETHING THAT THE VENDOR HAS NEVER DONE BEFORE , IS THREE TONED COLOR SLIDES, SO WE GOT THREE SHADES OF BLUE JUST ON THE SLIDES. THIS IS AN INCLUSIVE WORLD. SO IT'S AMERIGO ROUND. UM YOU KNOW, WILL WILL CHAIR ACCESSIBLE NOTHING LIKE THIS THAT WE HAVE THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE CITY. AGAIN JUST KIND OF A BIRD'S EYE VIEW OF THE PLAYGROUND AS A WHOLE. YOU CAN KIND OF SEE HOW IT'LL SET ON THAT TRAIL. I KNOW WE DON'T HAVE A PICTURE OF THE GOOGLE MAPS OF WHERE WE'RE WHERE IT'S CURRENTLY AT. BUT IF YOU CAN IMAGINE JUST NORTH OF THAT SITE OR NORTH OF THAT TRAIL, AND WE DO HAVE THIS LITTLE CLUSTER OF TREES. I DON'T KNOW IF CAN YOU SEE MY MOUSE? YES OKAY, SO THIS CLUSTER OF TREES WE HAVE THAT THERE WILL BE A LITTLE TRAIL THAT'LL GO KIND OF JUST AROUND THAT. SO UH, PLENTY OF SWINGS IF YOU IF YOU REMEMBER PIRATE COVE RIGHT NOW, WE'VE GOT A LOT OF SWINGS THERE. THERE'S THIS IS A THREE BAY SWING SET WITH JUST REGULAR BELT SEATS. WE HAVE ANOTHER THREE BAY SWING SET HERE WITH TWO BAYS BEING TAUGHT SEATS AND THEN WE'VE GOT AN INCLUSIVE BAY RIGHT HERE. COUNCILMAN WILLIAMS HAD A COUPLE OF QUICK QUESTIONS ONE WHICH IT LOOKS REALLY COOL. LOOKS NEAT. PARDON ME. GOT DRAINAGE. UM IT'S KIND OF HARD TO TELL IN THE THREE D RENDERINGS. UM SIZE AND SPACE VERSUS WHAT'S THERE NOW. YOU KNOW? OF COURSE, WE RAISED OUR KIDS AND THE ORIGINAL PIRATE COVE. AND SO WHAT LOOKS LIKE IS THERE SEEMS SUBSTANTIALLY SMALLER AS FAR AS THE FIXTURES ARE CONCERNED IN THE AMOUNT OF SPACE AND EXPLORE A TITTY FOR THE KIDS. IS THAT JUST MY OWN VISUAL? LOOK, IS IT SMALLER? OR IS IT JUST KIND OF HOW IT'S LOOKING TO ME? THIS THIS ONE IS CURRENTLY SMALLER. OR THOUGH EXISTING KIND OF FEELS LIKE THIS ONE IS SMALLER THAN THE EXISTING AND I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S BECAUSE OF ALL THE BRIDGES THAT GO ACROSS AND ALL THE CLIMBING AND THE YOU KNOW STUFF, BUT IT MIGHT BE JUST PERCEPTION. SO SQUARE FOOTAGE WISE. WE ASKED THE VENDOR THAT WE'RE WORKING WITH THE KIND OF KEEP IT THE SAME AMOUNT. NOT IS DRUG OUT A LITTLE BIT MORE. UM NOW THE CURRENT OR THE EXISTING PLAYGROUND. IT'S KIND OF A RUNNING THEME. SO THERE'S YOU KNOW, YOU CAN GO FROM ONE STRUCTURE ONTO ANOTHER ONE ONTO ANOTHER ONE, AND YOU NEVER REALLY GOT OFF THE GROUND. 
          SO IT LOOKS LIKE THERE WAS A LOT MORE EQUIPMENT THERE. THIS IS JUST MORE SPREAD OUT. A LITTLE BIT, AND WHEN WE'RE ACTUALLY SEPARATING THE 2 TO 5 YEAR OLDS INTO A SEPARATE AREA, 5 TO 12 YEAR OLDS AND ANOTHER ONE SO IN THAT SQUARE FOOTAGE IS THAT ALL OF THE POOR IN PLAY BECAUSE 
          [00:35:06]
WE'VE GOT WHAT LOOKS LIKE A LARGE AMOUNT OF PORN PLAY AREA AS FAR AS A LOT OF AREA FOR KIDS TO RUN AND STUFF, BUT AS FAR AS HAVING THE ACTUAL FIXTURE ITSELF . THAT'S WHAT I WAS TRYING TO. I WAS JUST TRYING TO GAUGE WHAT'S THERE NOW AND KIDS THAT ARE USED TO GOING. WHAT ARE THEY USED TO? AND WHEN THAT ONE'S DOWN, AND THIS ONE'S UP AND THEY GO? WHAT? WHAT'S GOING TO BE THAT CHANGE? UM HMM. AS FAR AS AMOUNT OF STUFF OR AMOUNT OF KIDS THAT HOLDS OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. ANY IDEA? I MEAN, I DON'T HAVE THAT. BUT I DO KNOW THAT IT AND IT MAY JUST BE THE WAY WE'RE LOOKING AT IT. I MEAN, IT IS A REALLY LARGE STRUCTURE THAT 5 TO 12, AND THERE'S A LOT OF DIFFERENT PLAY COMPONENTS ON IT. THERE'S EVEN UNDER NEATH THE STRUCTURE WITH THINGS THAT YOU CAN DO. AH! BUT I DO KNOW THAT THE CURRENT ONE THAT WE CURRENTLY HAVE HAS A ROCKET STRUCTURE. SO WE DID EVENT OR WE DID ORIGINALLY HAVE THAT WE'VE BEEN WORKING. WITH THIS WITH THESE DESIGNS FOR A WHILE, EVEN PRIOR WHEN WE WERE BUDGETING EARLIER THIS YEAR, AND THEY HAD ANOTHER COMPONENT THAT WAS A ROCKET SHIP, WHICH IS KIND OF WHAT'S THERE RIGHT NOW. THERE'S KIND OF A ROCKET SHIP THERE RIGHT NOW. WE WANTED TO MIMIC A LOT OF THE SAME STUFF. BUT THEN THEY DISCONTINUED THAT AFTER THE SUMMER BEFORE WE WERE ABLE TO, BUT WE WERE ABLE TO ADD A LOT OF THE TIME TRYING TO FIND A CLOSE UP PICTURE. SO WE DO HAVE THE CENTURY TUNNEL, WHICH IS ANOTHER KIND OF COMPONENT THERE. IT LOOKS AWESOME. I THINK IT LOOKS GREAT THAT THAT WAS THE ONLY THING I WANTED TO BRING UP JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT THE KIDS ARE THEY'RE PLAYING THAT THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE ENOUGH. THAT THERE'S ENOUGH THERE TO SUPPORT THEM AND THE KIDS THAT ARE USED TO GO INTO THAT PARK. IF THAT MAKES SENSE. YOU KNOW, THEY GOT TO BE ON TOP OF EACH OTHER OR NOT, AND I DON'T WANT TO MAKE A BIG LONG CONVERSATION ON SOMETHING THAT DOESN'T NEED TO HAVE A BIG LONG CONVERSATION. 
          THAT'S NOT MY GOAL. UM THE OTHER THING I'M GOING TO ASK IS IF WE'RE MOVING IT UM DO WE HAVE PLANS FOR THE LAND THAT IT'S ON? IS THAT WHY WE'RE MOVING IT SO WE DO IN OUR FIVE YEAR PLAN WE ARE LOOKING AT WANTING TO AND THE REASON WHY WE EVEN DECIDED TO MOVE IT WAS WE DID A MASTER PLAN OF FOUNDERS PARK BACK IN 21. AND, UM WE? ONE OF THE BIGGEST ISSUES WE'RE HAVING WITH FOUNDERS PARK IS ENOUGH PARKING. UH AND THIS WAS AN AREA THAT THE ARCHITECT THAT WE WERE WORKING WITH AT THE TIME THOUGHT. WELL, IF YOU MOVED PIRATE COVE NOW WE'RE NOT MOVING IT TO WHERE THEY SUGGESTED MOVING IT. THEY WANTED TO MOVE IT TO THE WEST SIDE WHERE WE'RE CURRENTLY RENOVATING THE FIELDS. WE DIDN'T WANT TO TAKE AWAY ANY FIELD SPACE, SO WE MOVED IT. TO A SPOT THAT WE DON'T REALLY HAVE ANY DEVELOPMENT GOING ON RIGHT NOW. BUT WE'RE PART COVE IS AT RIGHT NOW IS SUPPOSED TO BE FUTURE PARKING, AND IT'S JUST EXPANDING THE PARKING THERE. SO THAT'S THAT'S THE PLAN. YEAH, I MEAN, I REMEMBER WHEN IT WAS THE ONLY THING OUT THERE. YEAH YEAH, ME TOO, YOU KNOW, ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. YES, SIR. OKAY SO SORRY I WENT BACK UP. OH, SORRY. WAS THERE NO, GO AHEAD, GO AHEAD AND WENT BACK UP BECAUSE I WAS TRYING TO FIND THIS, UH, THIS RENDERING HERE THAT KIND OF SHOWED EVERYTHING. UM AND I DON'T KNOW IF IT HELPED ANSWER THE QUESTION ABOUT ENOUGH ACTIVITY GOING ON THERE, BUT I DO KNOW SQUARE FOOTAGE WISE, LIKE I SAID, IT IS A LOT BIGGER IN SIZE. AND THEN I'M TRYING TO REMEMBER WHERE WE WERE AT THIS ONE. THE CENTURY TUNNEL. THIS IS AN INCLUSIVE COMPONENT FOR THE PLAYGROUND. UM AND LIKE I SAID, WE'VE GOT SEVERAL OF THESE SCATTERED THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE PLAYGROUND. THAT'S JUST A CLOSE UP BEGINNING THE SLIDES THAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT EARLIER. YOU KNOW, THREE TONE BLUE COLOR SLIDES. THIS IS THE SMALLER STRUCTURE THAT 2 TO 5 YEAR OLDS. AND THEN THAT'S JUST AGAIN. JUST THE OTHER SIDE OF THE 5 TO 12 YEAR OLD STRUCTURE, WHICH SHOWS CLIMBING THAT'S GOING UP. 
          THERE'S ALL DIFFERENT TYPES OF CLAMORS ON THIS SIDE. ANOTHER CLOSE UP OF THE INCLUSIVE SWINGS. AND THEN THIS IS ACTUALLY MY FAVORITE ONE AND ONLY BECAUSE IT YOU KNOW YOU'RE ON THE MIDDLE DECK AND THEN YOU CAN ACTUALLY GO BELOW DECK. UH JUST KIND OF A QUIET AREA. 
          YOU'VE ALSO GOT ABOVE YOU KNOW THE UPPER DECK. I MEAN, IT'S JUST IT'S LIKE I SAID, IT'S NOTHING THAT WE HAVE HERE IN WYLIE NOW, SO IT WAS JUST A NEAT, NEAT LITTLE FEATURE. BUT THIS IS THE SLIDE. I REALLY WANTED TO GET TO, UM THIS IS THE LAST SLIDE, AND IT BASICALLY TALKS ABOUT ALL THE DIFFERENT, INCLUSIVE COMPONENTS THAT WE HAVE TO DISPLAY GROUND. SO WE KNEW GOING INTO REDOING PARA COVE. WE WANTED TO DO SOMETHING THAT WE'VE NEVER DONE WITH ANY OF THESE OTHER PLAYGROUNDS, AND THAT WAS ADD AS MANY INCLUSIVE COMPONENTS AS WE CAN. YOU KNOW, WE'VE ALWAYS BEEN ASKED, DO YOU HAVE ALL INCLUSIVE PLAYGROUND? AND WE'VE ALWAYS RESPONDED WITH WE HAVE INCLUSIVE COMPONENTS. BUT WE DON'T REALLY HAVE A FULLY INCLUSIVE PLAYGROUND. WELL HERE WE HAVE ADDED SO MANY INCLUSIVE COMPONENTS THAT WE ACTUALLY GOT. SOME NEWS LAST WEEK, AND IT WAS 
          [00:40:02]
ACTUALLY AN EARLY CHRISTMAS PRESENT. BUT THE VENDOR THAT WE'RE WORKING WITH AS A VENDOR THAT WE'VE WORKED WITH FOR SEVERAL PLAYGROUND RENOVATIONS THAT WE'VE DONE. THEY'RE ALSO DOING THE PAVILIONS, AT LEAST METAL SPLASH PAD. I MEAN, THEY'VE THEY'VE DONE A LOT OF WORK HERE AND WILEY. THEY WENT AHEAD AND USE THE THIRD PARTY AND WENT TO ACCOMPANY TO CERTIFY THIS AS AN ALL INCLUSIVE PLAYGROUND. SO WE'VE GOT THAT. LETTER LAST WEEK. AND IF COUNCILS OKAY WITH IT, I'D LIKE TO JUST READ A LITTLE BIT OF IT. SURE. IT SAYS DEAR PLAYGROUND PLANNER. LET KIDS PLAY, WHICH IS THE ORGANIZATION. LET KIDS PLAY HAS BEEN ASKED TO GIVE THE THIRD PART OF THE REVIEW OF THE PIRATE COVE PLAYGROUND PROPOSAL. PLAYGROUNDS MUST MEET THESE SIX TOP LEVEL REQUIREMENTS LISTED BELOW TO BE TRULY INCLUSIVE. MULTISENSORY. SURFACING. 
          GRADUATED LEVELS OF CHALLENGE. PLAY OPPORTUNITIES FOR PEOPLE USING WHEELCHAIRS. ADDRESSING CHILDREN, CHILDREN WHO GET OVERWHELMED AND SOCIAL PLAYING. AND THEN IT SAYS CONGRATULATIONS , THE PLAYGROUND DESIGN MEETS OR EXCEEDS THESE REQUIREMENTS. WE ARE HAPPY TO CERTIFY THIS AS A PLAYGROUND FOR ALL. SO WE JUST GOT THAT NEWS LAST WEEK. FOR THE DESIGN, SO COUNCIL APPROVES THIS TONIGHT AND THEN UPON COMPLETION OF THE PROJECT, WE WILL HAVE OUR FIRST FULLY INCLUSIVE PLAYGROUND HERE AND WILEY. SO. IT'S OUTSTANDING COUNCILMAN MALIKI. UM THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE PRESENTATION. ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIC FOR PARCO NEW POWER CODES TO BE WIDELY, UM, DO YOU HAVE A START AND COMPLETION DATE ON THIS? SO WE'VE WE'VE BEEN TOLD THAT PRODUCTION OF THIS OF THE MATERIAL COULD TAKE UP TO 2 TO 3 MONTHS JUST, YOU KNOW, JUST TO MAKE IT ALL AND THEN PROBABLY A GOOD MONTH OR SO CONSTRUCTION AFTER THAT, SO WE'RE LOOKING AT MIDDLE DELAYED SPRING IS THE GROUND LEVELING AND CONSTRUCTION PART ON THE GROUND IS THAT BEING DONE BY THE CITY OR IS THAT BEING DOWN BY WE BUILD FUN. WE BUILD FUND WILL BE DOING JUST THE PLAYGROUND INSTALLATION. WE WILL DO ALL THE ARTWORK. THE PARKS AND REC DEPARTMENT WILL BE DOING ALL OF THAT WE WILL HAVE A CONCRETE CONTRACTOR DOING THE CONCRETE RIBBON AND ALL OF THAT. SO THIS IS TO BE APPROVED. 
          TODAY. TONIGHT. UM I GUESS. WILL SAY SOMETIME IN MAY COUPLE OF MONTHS. PRODUCTION BASED ON START FINISH, BUT MADE THIS WILL BE READY TO GO. THAT'S WHAT WE'RE HOPING FOR. WE'RE HOPING, LIKE I SAID LATE SPRING. EARLY SUMMER. I'M OPEN TO EMOTION IF YOU ARE. LET ME OPEN IT TO QUESTIONS REAL QUICK. UM DO WE HAVE COUNCILMAN WILLIAMS? SORRY DIDN'T MEAN TO JUMP IN AND GO AGAIN IN FRONT OF PEOPLE. QUICK QUESTION ON BUDGET. AS FAR AS THE DOLLAR AMOUNT. IS THAT IN LINE WITH WHAT WE HAD BUDGETED FOR THIS PROJECT? YES, IT'S ABOUT 20,000 UNDER UNDER BUDGET, AND THEN I THINK WE ACQUIRED THE BLACK LAND FOUNDATION THIS YEAR. IS THAT RIGHT? AND THAT WAS THE NAME OF THE FOUNDATION THAT HAD THE PIRATE COVE PLAYGROUND. THAT IS CORRECT. I KNOW THAT THEY HAD IT. AND THEN WE, UM WE HAD A PARTY AND RECREATION FOUNDATION THAT HAS TAKEN OVER THAT. UM BUT I BELIEVE WE'VE THEY'RE STILL LOOKING FOR ANOTHER CHAIRPERSON FOR THAT. OKAY SO TRYING TO FIND OUT HOW THE FUNDS THAT THAT FOUNDATION HAD PLAYED INTO THIS BUDGET ITEM IF PIRATE COVE AS IT IS, IS GOING AWAY, AND THIS NEW PIRATE COVE IS GETTING DONE. AND THESE FUNDS ARE COMING OUT OF THE BUDGET. WHAT IS HAPPENING WITH THE FUNDS THAT THEY HAD IN THAT FOUNDATION? WHICHEVER WAY IT WENT. THAT I DON'T HAVE AN ANSWER FOR THAT. SO THIS IS ALL COMING JUST FROM OUR BUDGET. AH! BUT I'M NOT REPRESENT SURE. I HAVE AN ANSWER FOR THAT QUESTION. YEAH IF YOU COULD LET ME KNOW ON THAT IT WOULDN'T AFFECT ME APPROVING THIS, BUT I'D LIKE TO KNOW FOR LATER. JUST BUDGET WISE. WHAT WE DID WITH THAT. WE CAN GET THAT FOR YOU. THANK YOU. OKAY? IF THERE ARE NO OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS, I WOULD NOW BE OPEN TO EMOTION ON THE ITEM. COUNCILMAN MALIKI. 
          THANK YOU. MAYOR. MOTION TO APPROVE THE ITEMS PRESENTED. WE HAVE A MOTION TO APPROVE. DO WE HAVE A SECOND MAYOR? PROTEIN? FORRESTER? THANK YOU. I'LL SECOND THE MOTION. WE DO HAVE EMOTION WITH A SECOND COUNCIL, PLEASE CAST THEIR VOTES. MOTION CARRIES 70. WITH THAT WE'LL MOVE 
          [3. Consider, and act upon, the acceptance of the resignation of Jacques Loraine III, and the appointment of a new board member to the City of Wylie Planning and Zoning Commission to fill term of December 12, 2023 to June 30, 2025.]

          [WS1. Discuss the Renovation of the Animal Services Facility]
COMPLETES OUR REGULAR AGENDA FOR THE EVENING WILL NOW MOVE INTO OUR WORK SESSIONS ARE FIRST WORK SESSION IS TO DISCUSS THE RENOVATION OF THE ANIMAL SERVICES FACILITY. BEFORE WE MOVE INTO THAT DISCUSSION. I'M GOING TO GIVE EVERYONE JUST A QUICK FIVE MINUTE BREAK OR QUICK BREAK. I WON'T RESTRICT THE TIME. 
          WITH THAT. I'LL BRING US BACK INTO SESSION. WE'RE IN OUR WORK SESSION. AND I BELIEVE THAT WE'RE READY TO START ON THE DISCUSSION OF THE RENOVATION OF THE ANIMAL SERVICES FACILITY. SO MYRON COUNCIL, UM, BEFORE LIEUTENANT COTTON COMES UP, AND THERE'S THIS PRESENTATION JUST BRIEFLY. AFTER. VISITING THE ANIMAL SHELTER AND HEARING FROM THE ANIMAL CONTROL BOARD. THE ANIMAL SERVICES PLACED IN THEIR BUDGET. TO DO A STUDY ON WHAT IS REQUIRED OR NEEDED, I GUESS. FOR BUILD OUT IN OUR CITY, AND THAT'S GOING TO TAKE PLACE THIS YEAR. THIS CURRENT PRESENTATION OR WORK SESSION. THAT'S GOING TO BE DONE THIS EVENING IS REALLY A LOOK AT AT WHAT UM, THEY FEEL AS NEEDED. TWO. BECOME FUNCTIONAL. I BELIEVE, UM, FOR EXAMPLE, CURRENTLY AN EXAMPLE THAT WAS TOLD TO ME THE OTHER DAY IS ONE OF THE ANIMAL CONTROL OFFICERS WAS SPRAYED BY A SKUNK. AND WE DON'T HAVE SHOWER FACILITIES AND THE CURRENT FACILITY. SO HE HAD TO GO HOME. UM, I'M NOT SURE WHAT HIS VEHICLE SMELLS LIKE NOW. BUT I PROBABLY WOULDN'T WANT TO BE IN IT. SO IT'S JUST SOME OF THOSE THINGS. AND AS Y'ALL ALL KNOW, WE'VE ALSO HAD SOME CHALLENGES. UM KEEPING THE SHELTER OPEN. IF THERE'S EVER A QUARANTINE PERIOD THAT NEEDS TO TAKE PLACE BECAUSE OF A SICK ANIMAL. SO UM, THAT'S REALLY THE INTENT. OUR HOPE IS TO NOT FOR Y'ALL, TOO. NOT NECESSARILY. UM I KNOW. I KNOW WHAT ESSENTIAL AN EMAIL UM WITH THE SOME GENERAL INFORMATION AND THESE RENOVATIONS ARE IN THE BALLPARK ABOUT 800,000. THE RECOMMENDATION WAS TO USE FUN BALANCED TO FUND THAT. UM, BUT OUR HOPE IS REALLY JUST FOR YOU TO PROVIDE US DIRECTION AS TO IF THAT'S FEASIBLE. WE'RE LOOKING INTO A LONG RANGE PLAN, BUT WE DO NEED SOMETHING IN THE INTERMEDIATE BEFORE WE CAN DO A BOND ELECTION AND OR ISSUE CEOS OR, HOWEVER, WE'RE GOING TO FINANCE UM, UM A PERMANENT SOLUTION AND BUILD OUT, SO I JUST WANT TO GIVE THAT LITTLE BIT OF BACKGROUND AND INFORMATION ON WHAT ARE HOPING INTENT WAS AND THEN LET LIEUTENANT COTTON YOU GET OUT IN THE WEEDS OF THIS THING. OKAY? THANK YOU, SIR. GOOD EVENING, MAYOR CITY COUNCIL. SO THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALLOWING US THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE HERE TO TALK ON THIS. UM ON THE POWER POINT. AS YOU SEE, OBVIOUSLY, THAT'S THE PICTURE OF OUR BUILDING OVER AT THE HELMSLEY LOCATION AS IT CURRENTLY STANDS. THIS KIND OF GIVES YOU AN OVERVIEW OF THE FOOTPRINT THAT WE ACTUALLY HAVE. IF YOU LOOK TO THE RIGHT OF YOUR SCREEN, YOU'LL SEE THAT METAL BUILDING THERE. THAT'S ALL ANIMAL SERVICES AND THEN IN BEHIND IT, THIS IS ALL ANIMAL 
          [00:50:04]
SERVICES WITH OUR KENNELS AND EVERYTHING ELSE BACK THERE, AND THIS IS TYPICALLY WHERE WE PARK OUR VEHICLES, AND WE HAVE SOME SHARED SPACE. FOR PARKING AND THINGS LIKE THAT, WITH THE OTHER BUILDING SERVICES THERE AS WELL. BUT THIS IS THIS LOCATION HERE IS WHAT WE'RE GOING TO SEE A LOT ON THE INSIDE. SO A LITTLE BIT OF HISTORY BACK IN 96. WE WERE STILL AT THE KIRBY LOCATION. IT WAS UNTIL 2000 THAT THEY MOVED TO THE CURRENT LOCATION THERE ON HENSLEY. AND WHEN THEY MOVED THERE, IT WAS A SHARED SPACE ON THE 2400 SQUARE FOOT OF THE 3600 WAS TO BE DESIGNATED FOR ANIMAL SERVICES. IN 2013 TO 2015. PARKS AND PUBLIC WORKS MOVED OUT OF THAT BUILDING, AND IT WAS RENOVATED INTO ITS CURRENT CONFIGURATION THAT WE UTILIZE NOW AND AS THE CITY HAS GROWN. 
          UM WE'RE OUT OF SPACE. WE NEED MORE SPACE FOR ANIMALS. WE NEED BETTER FACILITIES FOR THE STAFF. 
          THAT'S THERE. SO. IF YOU LOOK, THIS IS THE CONFIGURATION OF THE CURRENT FLOOR PLAN. AND IN A LOT OF THESE DRAWINGS THAT YOU'RE GOING TO SEE NOW WE'RE DONE BY SHEILA HERSELF AND SO THEY'RE TO SCALE AS BEST WE CAN GET THEM RIGHT NOW. SO IF WE DO ANY REMODELING OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT WILL ACTUALLY HAVE TO HAVE SOMEBODY COME IN AND DO THESE DRAWINGS TO SCALE BECAUSE A LOT OF IT HAS TO BE PRESENTED TO THE STATE, ESPECIALLY FOR ANY OF THE STATE QUARANTINE TO BE ACCEPTED? SO BUT IF YOU LOOK AT THE WAY THIS IS DESIGNED THERE IS ONE RESTROOM AND I KNOW YOU CAN PROBABLY SEE MY CURSOR THERE. ONE RESTROOM THAT'S SHARED BY BOTH. OUR STAFF AS WELL AS GUESTS THAT COME IN WITH ONE TOILET, SO. THIS KIND OF GIVES YOU A GOOD IDEA OF THE INSIDE. 
          IT DOESN'T SHOW THE WAREHOUSE AREA AND I DIDN'T TAKE PICTURES OF THE BACK KENNELS AND THINGS LIKE THAT. THIS IS PRIMARILY THE AREA THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT, POTENTIALLY RENOVATING. SO IF YOU LOOK IT'S JUST OBVIOUSLY THE ONE BATHROOM AND, UH, THIS OFFICE SPACE HERE AND THIS IS ALL THE SAME ROOM. THIS IS WHERE YOU'RE MANAGER. OFFICERS WITH ONE OTHER SUPERVISOR, CHRIS MARIN, IS IN THAT OFFICE AS WELL . SO SHE DOESN'T HAVE HER OWN SPACE, SO AND WE'LL TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THAT, AS WE MOVE THROUGH. THIS JUST GIVES YOU A GOOD DEPICTION OF YOU KNOW THE STAFF RUN OFFICE AREA AND THEN THE HALLWAY IN BETWEEN THOSE AREAS. SO WE HAVE A LOT OF DIFFERENT LIMITATIONS FOR ANIMALS AS WELL AS FOR OUR STAFF LIMITATIONS FOR THE ANIMALS I'VE GOT SEVERAL OF THEM LISTED THERE. WE HAVE THREE AREAS. FOUR STATE QUARANTINE. WE REALLY NEED SIX. WE HAVE. UH THAT REALLY LIMITS THE NUMBER OF ANIMALS THAT WE CAN TOTALLY CARE FOR THE DOGS. IF WE WERE AT FULL CAPACITY IS 28 REALLY IN REASONABLY 15 IS A MANAGEABLE NUMBER TO TRY TO TAKE CARE OF IT ANY GIVEN TIME THE DOGS IF THEY CAME IN TWO DOGS THAT ARE FROM THE SAME HOUSEHOLD THAT WERE YOU KNOW THEY WERE TAKEN CARE OF. THEY CAN BE PUT IN THE SAME KENNEL, BUT YOU DON'T WANT TO MIX AND MATCH ANIMALS WHO ARE NOT FAMILIAR WITH EACH OTHER, ESPECIALLY WITH THE DOGS. AND SO THE CATS. WHEN YOU THINK OF IT, WE'VE WE UTILIZED TWO ROOMS, TYPICALLY FOR THE CATS, AND WE HAVE FIVE CAT TOWERS, AND SO YOU COULD. YOU KNOW, YOU COULD POTENTIALLY HAVE MULTIPLE KITTENS IN EACH OF THOSE CAT TOWERS IS JUST KIND OF DEPENDS ON HOW LARGE A GROUP THAT THEY CAME IN, AND ONE OF THE CHALLENGING AREAS FOR THE FELINES IS THERE'S NOT REALLY A PLACE TO QUARANTINE THEM. SO THEIR QUARANTINE IN THE SAME ROOMS AS THE CATS THAT DON'T HAVE ISSUES. SO, UM THERE'S ZERO NEUTRAL LIGHTING IN THERE FOR THE FELINES. SHE LOOKED AT EXPLAIN THAT A LOT BETTER THAN I CAN. BUT IT'S NOT GOOD FOR THE CATS. SO THE CURRENT CONFIGURATION FORCES DOGS TO GO PAST THE CATS. AND IF YOU HAVE CATS THAT ARE NOT FAMILIAR OR HAVEN'T BEEN AROUND DOGS, IT CREATES A LOT OF ANXIETY FOR THOSE CATS HAVEN'T HAD CATS MYSELF AND DOGS MYSELF. SOMETIMES THEY GET ALONG GREAT. 
          SOMETIMES SOMETIMES THEY HATE EACH OTHER. AND YOU ALL KNOW THAT SO AH, AND THERE'S YOU KNOW, ALREADY SAID THERE'S NO ASSIGNED AREA FOR THE SICK CATS SO AND THERE'S NO DESIGNATED FELINE QUARANTINE OR TNR AREA. TWO EMPLOYEES. THE BIGGEST THING IS THERE'S NO BATHROOM THAT IS JUST FOR EMPLOYEES. IN THE NEW CONFIGURATION, YOU'LL SEE KIND OF WHAT WE'RE HOPING FOR IS TO HAVE A MALE AND A FEMALE AREA AND ALSO SOME LOCKER ROOMS, MARIUS FOR THEM TO BE ABLE TO GET CHANGED. SO IF THEY GOT SPRAYED BY A SKUNK THEY CAN TAKE CARE OF THEIR AT WORK AND NOT HAVE TO GET THEIR PERSONAL VEHICLE SMELLING POORLY. THERE'S NO REAL TRUE PRIVACY FOR THE MANAGER. AND SO WHEN DISCIPLINE NEEDS TO BE DOLED OUT YEAH. TYPICALLY WHAT I'VE DONE IS I'VE 
          [00:55:08]
JUST ASKED HER TO COME UP AND UTILIZE MY OFFICE IF SHE NEEDS TO WORK IN PRIVATE TO GET THOSE DISCIPLINE MATTERS, TAKING CARE OF THAT. THAT'S A CHALLENGE. UM AND THEN THERE'S NO REAL WORKSPACE FOR THE ANIMAL SERVICES OFFICERS. THEY ALL KIND OF CONGREGATE IN ONE LITTLE ROOM BEHIND THE WINDOW WHEN THEY'RE ALL THERE TOGETHER. THERE'S NO BREAK ROOM TO EAT MEALS OR DECOMPRESS. YOU KNOW IF YOU HAD A CHALLENGING CALL IF YOU HAD TO DEAL WITH SOME OF THE DIFFICULT THINGS AND YOU'LL KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. YOU KNOW, YOU NEED AN AREA TO BE ABLE TO SIT DOWN AND JUST RELAX FOR A MINUTE OR TWO BEFORE YOU GO OUT ON THE NEXT CALL. IT'S UH RENOVATION PLAN, AND LIKE I SAID, A LITTLE WHILE AGO. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT SHE LOOK PUT TOGETHER. THAT UTILIZES THE CURRENT SPACE THAT WE HAVE, BUT RECONFIGURES EVERYTHING. AND WE'VE HAD A GROUP COME IN. AND BASED UPON THESE DRAWINGS AND JUST A SHORT WALK THROUGH, THEY GAVE US KIND OF A CALCULATION AND WE'LL SEE THAT IN ANOTHER SLIDE OF ABOUT 79 799,500 TO RECONFIGURE IT IN THIS MANNER THAT YOU SEE HERE. WHAT THIS DOES THIS CREATES WHERE MY CURSOR IS TWO SEPARATE OFFICES, ONE FOR THE MANAGER, ONE FOR THE SUPERVISOR. GREAT TO FRONT DESK AREA AND ENAMEL SERVICE OFFICE AREAS SO THAT IT'S A LITTLE BIT BETTER FOR ALL STAFF BREAK ROOM. AND THEN YOU WOULD HAVE A MEN'S BATHROOM, WOMEN'S BATHROOM AND THEN LOCKER AREA FOR EACH OF THOSE. SO ENOUGH LOCKERS FOR YOU KNOW FOR AS MANY AS WE CURRENTLY HAVE ON STAFF, AT LEAST AND THEN YOUR INTAKE ROOM WILL BE BACK HERE. THIS HALLWAY HERE MAKES IT REALLY NICE SO THAT IF YOU HAD DOGS AND THE DOGS WOULD NOT HAVE TO GO PAST ANY CATS AND EVERYTHING. SO THAT'S THAT'S THE BIG THING ABOUT THE HALLWAY AND THE RECONFIGURATION. YOU HAVE A NEW CAT ADOPTION AREA AND THEN YOUR CAT AND FERRET QUARANTINE ROOM WOULD BE AN INDIVIDUAL ROOM THERE AND THEN YOU'RE TNR AREA WOULD BE DESIGNATED OVER THE BLUE AND I KNOW YOU CAN READ THE REST OF IT. IT ELIMINATES SOME OF THE INTERIOR DOG KENNEL SPACE THAT WAS IN THIS HOLD. THIS AREA HERE WAS THE OLD KIND OF WAREHOUSE AREA FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE TOURED IT, BUT THIS CONFIGURATION, AT LEAST FOR THE BUILDING THAT WE'RE IN, MAKES SENSE. IT DOESN'T NECESSARILY TAKE CARE OF WHAT WE'RE GOING TO NEED IT BUILD OUT, BUT IN THE INTERIM, THIS WOULD SURE HELP. JUST KIND OF DEPENDS ON WHAT DIRECTION YOU ALL THINK WE NEED TO GO. THE RENOVATION CONCEPT SAID ABOUT 799,500. THAT'S REALLY NOT A DEEP DIVE INTO WHAT IT WOULD REALLY COST. WE WOULD NEED SOME SPECIFIC QUOTES AND SOME DRAWINGS. WE WOULD NEED TO HAVE A COMPANY COMING AND DO THOSE DRAWINGS FOR US SO THAT WE HAVE A REALLY GOOD FOOTPRINT THAT WE CAN SEND TO THE STATE FOR APPROVAL AS WELL BECAUSE THAT STUFF THAT IS REQUIRED, UM, THE COMPANY IS ON BY BOARD SO WE WOULDN'T HAVE TO PUT THAT INFORMATION OUT THERE. WE COULD UTILIZE THEM. THEY'VE WORKED ON BELIEFS AND PROJECTS FOR US ALREADY, BUT. AND AS THE CITY MANAGER SAID, THOSE FUNDS ARE IN THE GENERAL FUND BALANCES WHERE THEY COME OUT OF, BUT THE CHALLENGES THAT I'M NOT SURE THAT IT WOULDN'T BE A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN THAT, BECAUSE THERE'S OTHER THINGS WE'VE GOT TO THINK ABOUT DURING CONSTRUCTION. CAN THEY DO ONE SIDE OF THE BUILDING AND WE CAN STILL WORK OUT OF THE OTHER? OR DO WE HAVE TO VACATE THE BUILDING? IF WE HAVE TO VACATE THE BUILDING, WE NEED A TEMPORARY STRUCTURE OR DB HOUSE SOMEWHERE ELSE WITHIN THE CITY. TO BE ABLE TO HOUSE STAFF IN THE CATS. AND IT CAN'T BE SUPER FAR AWAY. THEY NEED TO BE ABLE TO TAKE CARE OF THOSE DOGS AND EVERYTHING ELSE. SO SOME OF THE THINGS THAT I LOOKED AT JUST CURSORY IS A TEMPORARY BUILDING. YEAH. SO I'M GOING TO SKIP ONE AHEAD THERE AND KIND OF GIVE YOU AN IDEA. THAT'S NOT EXACTLY WHAT WE WOULD NEED IS JUST A DEPICTION OF SOMETHING THAT COULD BE UTILIZED IF WE DECIDED TO GO DOWN THIS PATH. BUT YOU NEEDED TO BE BIG ENOUGH FOR ALL STAFF BIG ENOUGH FOR THE CATS TO BE ABLE TO HAVE SEPARATE ROOMS. AT LEAST THE TWO LIKE WE HAVE NOW AND THEN SOME OTHER AREAS TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE HANDLING EVERYTHING. WITH THE CATS PROPERLY. BUT. SIX OF THE CURRENT DOG KENNELS THAT ARE IN THE BACK BUILDING. WE WOULD CONVERT THOSE TO THE QUARANTINE SPACE. SO THAT WOULD TAKE CARE OF THE DOG QUARANTINE THAT'S CURRENTLY INSIDE THE BUILDING THAT WE HAVE. NOW WE HAVE A 40 FT BY 8 FT CONTACTS CONTAINER THAT WE HAD BEEN USING IT TO PD, AND WE'VE ALREADY MOVED IT OVER TO THAT GRAVEL LOT OVER BY PUBLIC WORKS. THANK YOU. TOMMY WERE FOR LETTING US PARK IT OVER THERE TEMPORARILY BUT THAT WOULD BE UTILIZED FOR THE HOUSE DOG FOOD, CAT FOOD, ALL SORTS OF THINGS WE COULD PUT OUR 2 20 FT. LONG. WELL THAT THEY'RE MORE LIKE 18 FT LONG STORAGE SHELVING UNITS OUT THERE. THEY'RE HEAVY STEEL, AND THAT COULD GO ALONG ONE SIDE OF THE WALL. SO WE'VE 
          [01:00:05]
PUT A LOT OF THOUGHT INTO. THIS IS WHAT WE'RE GOING TO NEED. AND I THINK THAT WILL HOUSE MOST OF WHAT WE NEED. MM. PARKING ADJUSTMENTS WOULD HAVE TO BE DONE TO MAKE SURE THAT OUR ANIMAL CONTROL VEHICLES ARE IN A SECURED AREA. AND THEN ADDITIONAL PARKING MAYBE NEEDED OUT FRONT. AND THEN WE GOT TO CONSIDER DURING THE CONSTRUCTION WHERE WE'RE GOING TO PUT OUR DECEASED ANIMALS. WHAT WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DO WITH COLD STORAGE. SO IF WE LOOK AT THIS SLIDE HERE, THIS THIS RED TERRIBLE BOX UP HERE THAT I DREW IN. THAT'S WHERE THAT COMICS CONTAINER A. POTENTIAL PLACE FOR THAT TO GO WOULD BE AND THAT IS LONG ENOUGH AND WIDE ENOUGH TO DO THAT. WE JUST HAVE TO MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE ENOUGH SPACE TO BE ABLE TO PULL IN AT LEAST ONE ANIMAL CONTROL CONTROL VEHICLE AT A TIME. THAT WAY THEY COULD GET THE DOGS TO WHERE THEY NEED TO GO SO AND OVER THE CATS. THIS LITTLE RED BOX DOWN HERE. THAT KIND OF AN IDEA OF WHERE A TEMPORARY BUILDING MIGHT BE ABLE TO FIT. WE HAVE THIS THIS PICTURE ALONG WITH SOME SOME DRAWINGS OF WHERE THERE'S ELECTRICAL LINES THERE. THERE'S UH, SEWER TAP AND SOME OTHER THINGS THAT ARE IN THIS AREA. WE'VE GOT TO CONSIDER ALL THOSE DIFFERENT THINGS FOR A TEMPORARY BUILDING, ELECTRICAL SUPER WE'VE GOT TO HAVE, YOU KNOW ALL OF OUR CABLE LINES AND STUFF TO BE ABLE TO DO INTERNET ALL THAT FUN STUFF. SO WE WHEN WE MET AND TALKED ABOUT ALL THIS, WE BROUGHT IN AS MANY PLAYERS AS WE COULD WITH THE CITY WITHOUT IT AND CITY MANAGEMENT AND EVERYBODY ELSE TO TRY TO WORK THIS THROUGH AND THEN POTENTIALLY A GRAVEL PARKING LOT. IF WE RAN OUT OF SPACE TO PARK SO JUST ALL THINGS TO THINK ABOUT AND CONSIDER THAT COULD INCREASE THE COST IF THAT WAS A 7,799,500 JUST TO DO THE CONSTRUCTION. I DON'T BELIEVE THAT IT WOULD INCLUDE TEMPORARY BUILDING AND ALL THOSE OTHER ANCILLARY COSTS TO HOOK THAT UP AND THE PARKING STUFF LIKE THAT, SO JUST THINGS TO THINK ABOUT. UM HOLD ON ONE SECOND. MAYOR. 
          PROTEIN. THANK YOU. SO LIEUTENANT. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BRINGING THESE NUMBERS IN FRONT OF US. I DO HAVE A QUESTION ON WHEN WE TALK ABOUT THE TEMPORARY HOUSING TO HAVE ANY KIND OF COST ASSOCIATED WITH THE RENTAL OF TEMPORARY BUILDING. I'VE LOOKED AT SOME OF IT AND I KNOW WE DID IT. I'VE GOT TO DO A DEEPER DIVE IN THAT I DON'T HAVE ANY EXACT NUMBERS, AND IT WAS QUITE EXPENSIVE WHEN WE RENTED THE BUILDINGS FOR THE PD WHEN IT WAS RENOVATED SEVERAL YEARS BACK, BUT. WOW BALLPARK IS ALL I CAN REALLY GIVE YOU AND I DON'T WANT TO DO THAT. I NEED TO DO A DEEP DIVE ON THAT. OKAY. THANK YOU. OKAY? COUNCILMAN MALIKI, UM JUST TO FOLLOW UP ON THAT, HAVE WE? WITH THE CONTRACTOR THAT I GUESS HAS LOOKED AT THIS IN THIS GIVING YOU A NUMBER. Y'ALL SPOKEN TO THEM ABOUT. WELL WE BE ABLE TO USE HALF OF THE BUILDING WHILE THEY'RE DOING THE REST OF IT. FOR TEMPORARY SPACE. PERSPECTIVE. WE HAVEN'T YET. WE WANTED TO HAVE THIS MEETING FIRST BEFORE WE TOOK THAT ANY FURTHER TO SEE WHAT Y'ALL WHAT KIND OF GUIDANCE YOU MIGHT PROVIDE. OKAY? THANK YOU. TO UH THERE POTENTIALLY COULD BE SOME WORK SCHEDULE ADJUSTMENTS DEPENDING ON WHAT'S BEING WORKED ON AND HOW IT'S BEEN. YOU KNOW, IF WE HAD A TEMPORARY BUILDING OUT FRONT, WE WOULD HAVE TO HAVE A TEMPORARY SIDEWALK TO BE ABLE TO GET TO THE DOGS AND TO BE ABLE TO SHOW THOSE DOGS FOR ADOPTION AND THINGS LIKE THAT. 
          THE BEST THING WOULD DO TO BE ABLE TO SET IT UP WHERE THAT WAS BY APPOINTMENT. AND IT WOULD JUST MAKE IT EASIER ON STAFF TO DO THAT, BECAUSE A LOT OF TIMES IF YOU'RE BACK THERE CLEANING AND YOU HAVE TO GO FROM ONE BUILDING AROUND ANOTHER BUILDING TO GET TO THAT DOG AREA. IT'S A LOT OF EFFORT AND YOU'D BE AMAZED YOU CAN GO THROUGH AND CLEAN ALL THOSE KENNELS AND THEN HAVE TO TURN AROUND AND REDO THEM ALL AGAIN, DEPENDING ON HOW THE DOGS ARE DOING IN PARTICULAR DAY, SO THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL AND THEN HOURS OF SERVICE MIGHT HAVE TO BE ADJUSTED DEPENDING ON STAFFING. YOU KNOW, YOU MIGHT HAVE TO COME IN IN THE FIRST COUPLE OF HOURS OF THE DAY DESIGNATE THAT TO ALL CLEANING AND GETTING THAT DONE, AND THEN DO YOUR ADOPTIONS AND OTHER THINGS THAT YOU NEEDED TO HANDLE. YOU KNOW DURING A COUPLE HOUR PERIOD AND THEN GO BACK TO CLEANING AGAIN, SO JUST THINGS TO THINK ABOUT. AND THEN WE HAVE FUTURE PLANNING. WE STARTED THE PROCESS OF THE NEEDS ASSESSMENT STUDY. WE'RE USING SHELTER PLANNERS OF AMERICA. WE HAVE SENT THEM THE INFORMATION. WE FINISHED THE P O AND GOT ALL THAT GOING TOWARDS THE END OF LAST WEEK. I APPRECIATE EVERYBODY'S HELP ON THAT END OF IT. UM I WOULD THINK. MARCH. 
          MAYBE EARLY APRIL IS BE A GOOD TIME FRAME WHEN THEY FINISH DOING ALL THAT STUDY THAT THEY'RE GOING TO COME OUT HERE ON SITE. THEY'RE GONNA LOOK AT THE FACILITIES THAT WE CURRENTLY HAVE THAT ARE GOING TO LOOK AT THE CITY AS A WHOLE. POPULATION NUMBERS WILL EXPECTED GROWTH ALL 
          [01:05:04]
THAT STUFF AND THEY'RE GOING TO GIVE US WHAT THEY THINK WE'RE GOING TO NEED BUILDING WISE AND STAFFING WISE WHEN WE GET TO BUILD UP. SO THAT'S WHAT WE'RE PAYING THEM TO DO. THAT WAS A BUDGETED, ADAM AND WE'RE ALREADY TAKING CARE OF THAT END OF IT, SO WE PROBABLY WON'T HAVE A WE'LL GET UPDATES, BUT WE PROBABLY WON'T HAVE A GOOD SOUND BASIS FOR WHAT THEY'RE THINKING UNTIL MARCH OR EARLY APRIL. SO ME QUICK QUESTION FOR YOU ON THAT. UM. I'M GOING TO ASSUME THAT IN DOING THAT, THEY'RE NOT NECESSARILY TRYING TO DESIGN ANYTHING AT THIS STAGE THERE. 
          MORE OF PROVIDING A YEAR GOING TO NEED X SQUARE FEET. THIS MANY CANDLES THIS MANY SPACES. IS THAT A FAIR ASSESSMENT? YES. I THINK SO. BUT SHEILA MIGHT BE ABLE TO ADD A LITTLE BIT MORE. 
          YES AT THIS POINT, WE DID BUDGET FOR TWO STEPS. BUT AT THIS POINT WE'RE DOING STEP ONE, WHICH IS EXACTLY THAT. SO IT IS JUST COMING OUT AND GIVING US ALL OF THAT, AND WE DO HAVE AN OPTION LATER AFTER HE GET BACK THEIR SUMMARY IN THE REPORT OF PROCEEDING TO ACCEPT TO IF THERE IF WE DECIDED TO GO TO DO THAT WE HAD 35 IN THE BUDGET, AND THIS PARTICULAR PART IS COSTING AROUND 14 SO WE'RE JUST UTILIZING THE FIRST STEP PROCESS AT THIS POINT. OKAY, THAT HELPS. 
          THANK YOU. RIGHT. COUNCILMAN WILLIAMS. LIEUTENANT I'M SURE THAT YOU WOULD END UP HAVING THAT CONVERSATION WITH THE CONTRACTOR. BUT I WAS JUST GOING TO SUGGEST WHEN YOU LOOK AT HIM BEING ABLE TO FACE THE PROJECT. HAVE THEM ALSO GIVE YOU SPECIFIC POSSIBLE DOLLAR AMOUNTS THAT THOSE PHASES WILL END UP COSTING AND SAVING BECAUSE, ALONG WITH THE TIMEFRAMES BECAUSE I'M SURE IF THEY FACE AT THE TIME FRAMES ARE GOING TO BE QUITE A BIT LONGER. UM AND JUST LOOKING AT THE LAYOUT OF EVERYTHING, HOW HARD THAT'S GOING TO END UP BEING A PHASE. I DON'T SEE THAT BEING REAL FUNCTIONAL MYSELF FROM FROM A CONTRACTOR STANDPOINT, BUT LEAVE THAT TO WHOEVER YOU TALKED TO. YES. GO AHEAD, LIEUTENANT. THANK YOU. QUESTIONS. FIRST I WANT. I WANT TO THANK YOU ALL FOR THE TIME THAT YOU PUT IN AS WELL AS STAFF AND ARE MEMBERS OF THE ANIMAL SHELTER ADVISORY BOARD. I KNOW IT'S BEEN A LOT MORE A LOT BUSIER RECENTLY, SO NOW WHETHER IT'S. LIEUTENANT COTTON STEPPING IN SHEILA AND YOUR TEAM FOR ALL THE WORK THAT YOU DO WE APPRECIATE THAT. I KNOW TO YOUR POINT. THERE'S A LOT THAT GOES ON. I KNOW IT'S A DIFFICULT JOB. 
          IN A LOT OF WAYS, UM NOW. TO YOUR POINT THERE ARE THERE ARE SOME NOT FUN PARTS OF THE JOB OF BEING OF WORKING IN ANIMAL SERVICES. UM, OBVIOUSLY NOW. WHAT YOU'VE PRESENTED THIS EVENING AND KIND OF SOME OF THE NUMBERS THAT WE'VE SEEN IN OUR PACKETS AND THINGS WHERE YOU GUYS HAVE HAD TO CLOSE BECAUSE YOU HAVE A SICK ANIMAL OR CLOSE TO INTAKE BECAUSE OF RINGWORM OR ANY OTHER THING THAT COULD BE OTHERWISE PUT INTO ISOLATION TO ALLOW YOU STILL TO OPERATE THE ISSUES WITH STAFF THAT YOU POINTED OUT. AND KNOWING THE AMOUNT OF TIME THAT IT TAKES, UM LET'S SAY YOU GUYS GET THE FIRST ROUND IN APRIL. NOW WE DO A SECOND ONE. GET A DESIGN THE END OF THE YEAR. MAYBE IT ONCE WE'VE SETTLED ON DOING HOW WE WANT TO DO IT WHERE WE WANT TO DO IT AS A COUNCIL AND WITH YOU ALL INVOLVED. THEN YOU GOTTA GO THROUGH LOOKING AT PRESENTING A BOND OUT TO THE PUBLIC AND THEN DOING A FINAL OUR ACTUAL ARCHITECTURAL RENDERINGS OF IT. 
          AND PURCHASING. MY POINT IS THAT I THINK WE'VE ALL FIGURED OUT IT TAKES YEARS FROM THE TIME THAT YOU START TO EVEN LOOK AT FEASIBILITY STUDIES, WHICH IS KIND OF WHERE WE'RE AT AND NEEDS ASSESSMENTS. UM AND, FRANKLY, WITH THE CHALLENGES THAT WE HAVE FOR STAFF AND STAFF TO BE ABLE TO ADEQUATELY CARE AND PERFORM AND BE ABLE TO DO THEIR CHILD THE WAY THAT THEY WANT NEED TO FOR OUR COMMUNITY. I DON'T THINK WE HAVE AN OPTION. UM, AND IN MY OPINION I WOULD LIKE TO SEE US MOVE FORWARD WITH THIS, UM SO THAT THAT WOULD BE MY OPINION IS I'D LIKE TO SEE US MOVE FORWARD, TAKING INTO ACCOUNT WHAT MY COLLEAGUES HAVE SAID. NOW DOES PHASING MAKES SENSE. MAYBE IT DOESN'T FROM A COST STANDPOINT AND OPEN STANDPOINT OR A TIMING STANDPOINT. HMM UM, BUT MAYOR PRO TEM. I KNOW YOU REPRESENT COUNCIL ON THAT BOARD, SO I'D LIKE TO GO AHEAD AND LET YOU SPEAK. THANK YOU, MAYOR SO I WOULD SECOND. THE MAYOR'S COMMENTS TO SHEILA AND THE TEAM YOU'VE DONE. A LOT OF WORK TO GET THIS TOGETHER, AND WHEN WE FIRST SAT DOWN AND STARTED TALKING ABOUT DOING FEASIBILITY STUDIES AND STUDIES ON WHERE WE ARE NOW AND WHERE WE'RE GOING IN THE FUTURE, THOSE WERE SOME BIG EYED CONVERSATIONS, BUT WE'RE I APPRECIATE ALL THE WORK THAT YOU PUT IN AS WELL AS THE BOARD MEMBERS WHO HAVE COME THIS EVENING TO ATTEND, UM I THINK 
          [01:10:01]
THAT ONE THING THAT THAT THE LIEUTENANT POINTED OUT. THAT'S IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND IS THAT THIS BUILDING HAS NOT BEEN THE SOLE HOME OF THE ANIMAL SERVICES PORTION OF THE CITY SINCE IT WAS BUILT. IT NOW IS THE ONLY BUILDING THERE IN AND IT IS WOEFULLY BEHIND ON UPDATES. 
          WE'VE UPDATED EVERY DEPARTMENTS BUILDINGS WITHIN THE CITY FROM PUBLIC SAFETY TO OUR BEAUTIFUL CITY HALL. UM, AND IT'S TIME TO GET THE SERVICES THAT ARE PROVIDED BY OUR ANIMAL SERVICES PROFESSIONALS UP TO DATE AND PROVIDE THEM WITH A FACILITY THAT THEY CAN BE PROUD OF, AND PROUD TO CALL HOME. SO I STAND IN FAVOR OF THIS AND LOOK FORWARD. NOT ONLY TO THIS PROJECT THE FUTURE PLANNING AS WELL, THANK YOU. THANK YOU, SIR. SO AGAIN, THIS IS A WORK SESSION TO GIVE THEM KIND OF GUIDANCE. SO I KNOW WE'VE HAD SOME QUESTIONS AND COMMENTS. I'M GOING TO KIND OF ASK EVERYONE TO GIVE YOUR FEEDBACK IN GENERAL. SO I WILL START ON THE RIGHT MY RIGHT THIS EVENING, COUNCILMAN MALIKI. YOUR OPINION. IF YOU'D LIKE TO SEE THIS MOVE FORWARD AND OR ANY QUESTIONS, THINGS YOU'D LIKE TO ADDRESS WANT TO. I WANT TO THANK THE STAFF AND EVERYBODY THAT PUT IN THE TIME AND THE EFFORT TO FIRST AND FOREMOST, BUT THE NUMBERS AND DRAWINGS TOGETHER FOR US, UM, JUST TO PUT THESE DRAWINGS, I'M SURE IT TOOK QUITE A BIT OF IRIS, SOMETHING THAT I WOULDN'T KNOW HOW TO DO. UM I'M IN FAVOR OF HAVING. YOU KNOW A MORE APPROPRIATE SPACE FOR THE NEEDS. I WANT TO BE CAUTIOUS ABOUT. I'M IN FAVOR OF BUILDING A NEW STRUCTURE WITH FULLY LOADED BUILT OUT FOR US, SO I WOULD LIKE TO SEE. OUR SPEND SPENDING IN THIS PROJECT TEMPORARY PROJECT. TO BE AS CAPTIVES POSSIBLE, IN A SENSE WHERE I DON'T WANT TO SAY JUST GETS US BY BUT AT LEAST ALLOWS US TO GET TO THE POINT WHERE WE ARE MOVING INTO A NEW STRUCTURE. SO THIS WAY, WHERE NON INVESTING A BOATLOAD OF DOLLARS AND I KNOW WE CAN'T PREDICT THE FUTURE AND THERE'S A BOND CITIZENS. WILL ANSWER TO THAT. NOT US, BUT I'M SURE THAT EVERYBODY WILL SUPPORT AN ANIMAL. SERVICE FACILITY. SO. I'M IN FAVOR OF IT. LET'S LOOK AT ALL THE OPTIONS. I THINK FROM PERSPECTIVE, MY PERSPECTIVE. I'M HAPPY TO HELP HOW I CAN IN TERMS OF FINDING TEMPORARY HOUSING, AND EVEN MAYBE LOOKING AT SOME OTHER OPTIONS IN TERMS OF HOUSING SOME OF THE ANIMALS FOR TEMPORARY TIME. WHILE THIS HAS BEEN RENOVATED TO OUR COLUMN, CALLING IT, UM COUNTY ANIMAL SERVICES FOR TIME BEING MAYBE SOME OF THAT HELPING THAT BUT SHELTERING SOME OF THE ANIMALS THERE. BUT I'M IN FAVOR OF IT.

THANK YOU, SIR. COUNCILMAN STRENGTH. YEAH NO, I THINK THIS IS VERY NICE DESIGN. I THINK THESE ARE NECESSARY IMPROVEMENTS, ESPECIALLY FOR THE REASONS, STATED. UM YEAH, I'M ON BOARD WITH THAT.
