[PR1. Junior Mayor - Amelia Hill.]
SO OUR FIRST PRESENTATION TODAY IS FOR AMELIA HILL, WHO IS SERVING AS OUR JUNIOR MAYOR FOR THE DAY. IT IS SOMETHING THAT WE LOVE TO ENCOURAGE WITHIN THE CITY, AND THAT IS CIVIC INTEREST IN OUR YOUNG PEOPLE. WE ARE PROUD TO BE ABLE TO HOST CLASSES AND GO TO CLASSES, BUT WE ARE ALSO PROUD TO PARTNER WITH SOME OF OUR ISD ORGANIZATIONS TO PROVIDE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR PEOPLE TO EARN JUNIOR MAYOR OF THE DAY THROUGH THEIR SUPPORT, TYPICALLY OF LOCAL PTAS OR OF THE ISD FOUNDATION. AND IN THIS INSTANCE, AMELIA IS AT WATKINS AND SHE AND HER PARENTS WON[00:05:01]
JUNIOR MAYOR OF THE DAY THROUGH THEIR SUPPORT OF THE PTA. SO WOULD YOU LIKE TO SAY ANYTHING? YEAH, THERE'S A LOT OF BRIGHT LIGHTS WHEN YOU GET UP HERE, AREN'T THERE? YEP. SO WE HAD A GREAT TIME, AS I MENTIONED. GOT TO GO OUT AND VISIT WITH HER CLASS. IT'S ALWAYS GREAT TO GET THE OPPORTUNITY TO GET IN FRONT OF THE STUDENTS, BELIEVE IT OR NOT, SOMETIMES YOU GET QUESTIONS. I'LL CALL THEM PERSONAL QUESTIONS ABOUT FAVORITE COLOR OR SPORTS TEAM, BUT EVEN IN OUR ELEMENTARY AGE STUDENTS, I GET QUESTIONS THAT ARE MUCH MORE SERIOUS. EXPLAIN SOCIALISM TO ME, DEFINE INFLATION AND HOW WE CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. NOT THE QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT EXPECT FROM PEOPLE WHO ARE IN ELEMENTARY. HOWEVER IT REFLECTS THAT THERE IS AN INTEREST BEING TAKEN FAR DEEPER THAN JUST SURFACE LEVEL AMONG OUR YOUTH IN THE GOVERNMENT AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO TEACH THEM ABOUT HOW THAT WORKS AT THE LOCAL LEVEL AND THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LOCAL LEVEL AND NATIONAL FEDERAL LEVEL POLITICS IS IMPORTANT. I REMIND PEOPLE THE LOCAL LEVEL HELPS DECIDE WHAT ROADS GET BUILT AND REPAIRED, WHAT TYPES OF BUSINESSES COME TO TOWN, OVERSEE POLICE, FIRE AND EMERGENCY RESPONSE, PUBLIC WORKS. I ALWAYS EXPLAIN IT TO THEM. NO ONE GETS UPSET ABOUT WATER AND ABOUT SEWER TILL ONE OF THE TWO OR BOTH DOESN'T WORK. THEN THEY FIGURE OUT VERY QUICKLY WHO IS IN CHARGE OF THOSE AND WE HAVE SUCH A GREAT TEAM HERE AT THE CITY, AND IT'S ALWAYS, AGAIN, SUCH AN HONOR AND A BLESSING TO BE ABLE TO SPEND TIME WITH YOUTH. SO WITH THAT, WE DO HAVE A PROCLAMATION FOR YOU THIS EVENING. IF YOU'LL HELP ME HOLD THAT. THERE YOU GO. SO WHEREAS AMELIA HILL HAS THE PRIVILEGE TO BE HONORARY MAYOR FOR THE DAY IN THE CITY OF WILEY AND EXPERIENCED THE DUTIES OF THE OFFICE OF THE MAYOR BY JOINING MAYOR PORTER AND THE CITY COUNCIL ON THE DAIS FOR A CITY COUNCIL MEETING.

I DIDN'T KNOW I'D BE PUTTING ON THE SPOT TODAY, BUT, SO MY EAGLE PROJECT WAS A FLAG RETIREMENT RECEPTACLE CURRENTLY IN PLACE IN FRONT OF WYLIE EAST HIGH SCHOOL, AND THAT KIND OF AROSE AS A NEED DUE TO THE COMMUNITY JUST HAVING A SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN FLAGS THAT NEEDED TO BE RETIRED, AND THERE BEING NO PLACE TO ACTUALLY PUT THESE FLAGS. SO I WAS THE CORPS COMMANDER AT WALLACE HIGH
[00:10:05]
SCHOOL FOR THE AIR FORCE JUNIOR ROTC. I WAS CADET COLONEL, AND MY, MY INSTRUCTOR, COLONEL BROOKS MCFARLAND, HE CAME UP TO ME, HE SAID, YOU KNOW, WE GOT TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THESE. WE GOT TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THESE FLAGS BECAUSE THERE'S, YOU KNOW, THEY KEEP PILING UP, THEY HAVE NOWHERE TO GO, AND SO AT THE TIME, I WAS LOOKING TO GET MY EAGLE, MY EAGLE SCOUT DONE, AND, I NEEDED A PROJECT TO DO, SO I WAS LIKE, I KEPT MY COLONEL. I TOLD HIM, HEY, I GOT THIS IDEA.I WANT TO PUT A FLAG RETIREMENT BOX IN FRONT OF EAST, WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THAT? AND HE SAYS, THAT'S A GREAT IDEA. SO THE FLAG RETIREMENT BOX IS CURRENTLY IN FRONT OF WYLIE EAST HIGH SCHOOL RIGHT NOW, AS I'VE SAID BEFORE, AND IT IS BEING MAINTAINED BY THE WYLIE EAST HIGH SCHOOL'S CORE CADETS, AND IT IS BEING SERVICED, YOU KNOW, EVERY DAY AT THEIR SCHOOL AND SO YOU CAN GO THERE RIGHT NOW IF YOU HAVE FLAGS THAT NEED TO BE RETIRED, YOU CAN PUT IT IN THAT, DROP IT OFF IN THAT BOX RIGHT THERE. AND, THE WILD EAST AIR FORCE JUNIOR ROTC WILL TAKE CARE OF IT FOR YOU ALL AND HAVE IT, DISPOSED OF AND RETIRED PROPERLY WITH HONOR, AND THAT IS KIND OF HOW THAT CAME ABOUT TO BE. SO SO, AGAIN, A GREAT PROJECT FOR OUR COMMUNITY, AND A GREAT WAY TO HONOR, NOT JUST THE COMMUNITY, BUT OUR VETERANS AND OUR FLAG AND OUR COUNTRY WITH THIS PROJECT TO ENSURE THAT THEY ARE PROPERLY DISPOSED OF AND THERE IS SOMEWHERE FOR PEOPLE TO GO. SO IF YOU HAVE A FLAG THAT IS IN NEED OF RETIREMENT, AND ESPECIALLY IF YOU'RE OVER ON THE EAST SIDE OF TOWN, I ENCOURAGE YOU TO STOP BY AND MAKE SURE THAT IT IS PROPERLY DISPOSED OF.

AND WHEREAS THIS ACHIEVEMENT CARRIES WITH IT GREAT HONOR AND A COMMITMENT TO CONTINUE TO DEVELOP LEADERSHIP SKILLS AND TO SERVE AS A GUIDE AND ROLE MODEL FOR BOTH COMMUNITY AND NATION. WHEREAS SUCH AN AWARD IS EARNED AND THAT THE RECIPIENT MUST PERFORM AND SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETE AND PASS THE RIGID REQUIREMENTS EXACTED TO ACHIEVE THE EAGLE SCOUT AWARD. AND WHEREAS CHRISTOPHER TRONCOSO'S EAGLE SCOUT SERVICE PROJECT WAS TO INSTALL A RETIRED FLAG RECEPTACLE AT WYLIE EAST HIGH SCHOOL SO DONATED FLAGS CAN BE PROPERLY DISPOSED OF BY THE WYLIE EAST HIGH SCHOOL, AIR FORCE JUNIOR ROTC CADETS IN RECOGNITION. THEREFORE, I AM MATTHEW PORTER, MAYOR OF THE CITY OF WYLIE, TEXAS.

OKAY.THAT SOUNDS GOOD. SO THEN, LUCA PERETTI. SO I WILL ASK IF WE HAVE ANY OTHER APPLICANTS WHO ARE PRESENT THIS EVENING, JUST IN CASE THERE'S SOMEONE AROUND.

NO INTERVIEWS CONDUCTED AND NO PLAN TO TAKE ACTION, WE'LL MOVE ON FROM ITEM NUMBER ONE THIS EVENING TO ITEM NUMBER TWO, WHICH IS TO CONSIDER AND ACT UPON NOMINATIONS FOR A PRIMARY AND AN ALTERNATE MEMBER TO SERVE ON THE NORTH CENTRAL TEXAS COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS. NCTCOG REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION COUNCIL, RTC OF THE DALLAS FORT WORTH AREA FOR THE CITIES OF ALLEN, ROWLETT SAXY WILEY, MURPHY, LUCAS, PARKER, AND LAVON. SO MISS STORM, DO YOU WANT ME TO[01:00:03]
LEAD THIS OR. THAT'S FINE. SO WE HAD, A LETTER SENT TO US IN THE PAST. THE MAYOR PRO TEM OF ALLEN, MR. SCHULMEISTER HAS SERVED IN THE PRIMARY ROLE, AND I HAVE SERVED IN THE ALTERNATE POSITION, WITH MR. SCHULMEISTER, STEPPING OR BEING TERM LIMITED AFTER THIS YEAR? THEY DID NOT FEEL IT WOULD BE APPROPRIATE TO REAPPOINT HIM, AND HE SOUGHT TO HAND THAT OFF, WE WILL NEED, SINCE IT IS A TWO YEAR TERM AND HE WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO FULFILL IT, THE CITY OF ALLEN NOTIFIED US THAT, THEIR NEW COUNCIL MEMBER, MICHAEL SCHAEFER, HAD EXPRESSED A WILLINGNESS TO SERVE AS THE PRIMARY AND TO CONTINUE WITH MYSELF AS THE ALTERNATE REPRESENTATIVE OF, WE HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO NOMINATE ANYONE THAT WOULD LIKE TO SERVE IN THAT ROLE, AND YOU CAN SEE THE INFORMATION, THAT HAS BEEN SENT OUT FROM THE RTC LETTER THAT IS IN THE PACKET. AS WELL AS ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FROM THE CITY OF ALLEN, WITH WHAT THEY HAD MADE A REQUEST OF PUTTING MR. SCHAEFER INTO THAT POSITION. SO WITH ALL THE INFORMATION THAT'S PRESENT, I'D LIKE TO OPEN IT UP FOR COMMENTS AND DISCUSSION ON, ON ON WHAT WE WOULD LIKE TO DO AS A COUNCIL COUNCILMAN. WILLIAMS, THANK YOU, MAYOR. I BELIEVE FROM OUR LAST MEETING THAT WE HAD DISCUSSED AS A COUNCIL, LOOKING AT ASSIGNING YOU AS PRIMARY IF HE WAS WILLING TO STEP ASIDE. AM I REMEMBERING THAT CORRECTLY, THAT WAS FOR DIFFERENT COG GROUP. THAT WAS A DIFFERENT. YES. THAT WAS SO THAT WAS SOMETHING THAT YOU WOULD BE INTERESTED IN SERVING AS PRIMARY . SO THE DIFFICULTY IS I'M NOT SURE ON THE BYLAWS WITHIN COG, IF I WERE TO SUCCEED IN THE NOMINATION TO THE EXECUTIVE BOARD, I DO NOT BELIEVE I CAN SERVE ON A SUB BOARD AT THE SAME TIME. ARE YOU WILLING TO CONTINUE AS AN ALTERNATE ON? I AM, BUT I ALSO WAS WILLING IF SOMEONE ELSE ON ON THE GROUP WOULD LIKE TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS. I'M ALSO OPEN TO THAT. BUT, I MEAN, I'M REALLY IT'S FULL DISCUSSION. WE HAVE THE RECORD, WE HAVE WHAT ALLEN IS GOING TO SEND IN. THAT'S THE LETTER THEY'LL SEND IF WE WOULD LIKE TO DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT, WE WILL ALSO NEED TO CHECK WITH SOME OF OUR, FELLOW OTHER CITIES LISTED, SUCH AS ROWLETT AND SAXY, AS IT IS A VOTING BASED SYSTEM BASED ON POPULATION. THEN, AS TO WHO GETS SELECTED. SO I MEAN, I'M WILLING TO DO I'M WILLING TO DO EITHER POSITION BECAUSE THE OTHER IS NOT GUARANTEED. AND IF IT CHANGED, OKAY, THEY WOULD THEY WOULD MOVE THE ALTERNATE UP AND ASK FOR NEW NEW APPOINTMENTS. AND I'LL, I'LL WAIT TO HEAR WHAT OUR COLLEAGUES HAVE TO SAY TO MAKE A MOTION. SURE. COUNCILMAN WILLIS, I'D RECOMMEND OUR MAYOR PRO TEM TO BE AS A PRIMARY IF HE WOULD. IF HE'S WILLING TO SERVE ON THAT ROLE AND NOMINATE MAYOR PRO TEM. SO, MAYOR PRO TEM FOSTER, WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THAT? SO AT THIS POINT IN TIME, I ONLY HAVE ONE YEAR REMAINING ON THIS ON THIS TERM. AND I THINK THAT IN ORDER TO SERVE ON THAT BOARD, YOU HAVE TO HAVE IT'S A TWO YEAR SERVICE TIME AND UN NOT UN NOT KNOWING WHETHER OR NOT THE REELECTION STATUS WOULD BE, I THINK THAT IT WOULD PROBABLY BE BEST THAT IF I NOT ACCEPT THE NOMINATION, I GREATLY APPRECIATE IT, BUT I DON'T BELIEVE THAT I HAVE THE TIME LEFT ON THIS COUNCIL TO BE NOMINATED AND ACCEPT THE NOMINATION TO THAT BOARD. OKAY. AT THE SAME TIME, THOUGH, I DO BELIEVE THAT THE NOMINATION OF MAYOR PORTER AS A PRIMARY AND THE GENTLEMAN FROM ALLEN AS THE SECONDARY WOULD WORK, I DON'T BELIEVE I BELIEVE THAT THE, COUNCIL MEMBER FROM ALLEN IS A NEW COUNCIL MEMBER ON THEIR CITY COUNCIL, AND I DON'T BELIEVE THAT, THERE IS AN EXPERIENCE LEVEL WITH THAT PERSON THAT WOULD GIVE THEM THE UNDERSTANDING OF RTC AND COG, AND I BELIEVE THE MAYOR HAS BEEN SERVING AS A MEMBER OF COG AND HAS ESTABLISHED RELATIONSHIPS AS WELL AS IS UNDERSTANDS THE PROTOCOL OF COG AND THE MISSION STATEMENT ALREADY. SO I WOULD BE WILLING TO SUPPORT MAYOR MATTHEW PORTER AS A PRIMARY. AND, THE GENTLEMAN FROM ALLEN, I APOLOGIZE. I'M SCROLLING THROUGH, TRYING TO CATCH HIS NAME. MR. SCHAEFER, MR. SCHAEFER, AS A SECONDARY AND, THAT'S DEPENDENT UPON WHETHER OR NOT THE MAYOR WOULD ACCEPT THAT NOMINATION. COUNCIL MEMBER MALIKAI, I AGREE WITH MAYOR PRO[01:05:08]
TEM I WHY? I WENT TO, TO MAYOR PRO TEM WAS THAT I THOUGHT, MAYOR, YOU SAID BECAUSE OF YOUR NAME BEING PUT FORTH FOR THE OTHER, COG, THAT YOU MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO, IF I WAS SELECTED TO THE EXECUTIVE BOARD, THEN I WOULD HAVE TO ASK THEM IF I CAN SERVE IN BOTH CAPACITIES OR NOT.I'M NOT POSITIVE ON THAT, BUT THAT IS FAR FROM A SURE THING IS, IT'S ANY CITY COULD NOMINATE SOMEONE THAT HAD A POPULATION BETWEEN 50 AND 350,000. SO THAT'S THE VAST MAJORITY OF THE METROPLEX REGION. SO THERE MAY BE QUITE A FEW CANDIDATES FOR THAT ONE SEAT. THEN, IF YOU WILL. AND THERE'S NO MORE DISCUSSION, I'LL MAKE A MOTION THAT WE NOMINATE MAYOR MATTHEW PORTER AS A LEAD, POSITION. AND THEN THE A PRIMARY POSITION. AND THE GENTLEMAN FROM ALLEN, COUNCILMAN SCHAEFER, AS A SECONDARY, I WOULD BE WILLING TO SERVE COUNCILMAN STRANG. THANK YOU, MAYOR. I'LL SECOND. OKAY. WE HAVE A MOTION WITH A SECOND, AS STATED, COUNCIL, PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE. OH, I APOLOGIZE, MISS STORM. DO YOU NEED THAT READ OUT? IT WAS PRETTY. IT WAS. IT WAS CLOSE TO THE MOTION. SO, ARE YOU COMFORTABLE? I'M COMFORTABLE WITH THAT. OKAY, SO I APOLOGIZE.
SO. YES, PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE. GOOD CATCH. SIR. MOTION CARRIES SIX ZERO WITH COUNCILMAN DUKE
[3. Consider, and act upon, Ordinance No. 2024-18, amending Wylie’s Code of Ordinances, Ordinance No. 2021-17, as amended, Chapter 46 (Fire Prevention and Protection), Article III (Fire Code), repealing Ordinance No. 2022-21 and adopting the 2021 Edition of the International Fire Code including Appendices B, C, D, K, L, and N, save and except the deletions and amendments set forth herein; prescribing regulations governing, among other things conditions hazardous to the life and property from fire, hazardous materials or explosions; providing a penalty clause, savings/repealing clause, severability clause and an effective date; and providing for the publication of the caption hereof.]
ABSENT, WE'LL MOVE TO ITEM THREE, WHICH IS TO CONSIDER AN ACT UPON ORDINANCE NUMBER 2014.DASH 18, AMENDING WILEY'S CODE OF ORDINANCES. ORDINANCE NUMBER 2021, DASH 17, AS AMENDED.
CHAPTER 46 FIRE PREVENTION AND PROTECTION. ARTICLE THREE FIRE CODE REPEALING ORDINANCE NUMBER 2022. DASH 21, AND ADOPTING THE 2021 EDITION OF THE INTERNATIONAL FIRE CODE, INCLUDING APPENDICES B, C, D, K, L, AND N, SAVE AND ACCEPT THE DELETIONS AND AMENDMENTS SET FORTH HEREIN. PRESCRIBING REGULATIONS GOVERNING, AMONG OTHER THINGS, CONDITIONS HAZARDOUS TO THE LIFE AND PROPERTY FROM FIRE, HAZARDOUS MATERIALS OR EXPLOSIONS, PROVIDING A PENALTY CLAUSE. SAVINGS. REPEALING CLAUSE, SEVERABILITY CLAUSE AND EFFECTIVE DATE, AND PROVIDING FOR THE PUBLICATION OF THE CAPTION HEREOF. CHIEF BLYTHE, THANK YOU MAYOR, GOOD EVENING MAYOR AND COUNCIL. THE ITEM BEFORE YOU IS REALLY READOPTING THE 2021, FIRE CODE THAT WE ADOPTED IN IN 2021. AND THE REASON WE'RE DOING THIS IS WE TYPICALLY DO THIS EVERY SIX YEARS. BUT WE FOUND THE, WE'VE STARTED HAVING SOME PROBLEMS WITH LITHIUM ION BATTERIES, WITH POWERWALL AND SOME AND SOME OTHER THINGS ABOUT THAT. AND THE 2024 FIRE CODE HAS THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE COVERAGE OF THAT AND THE FIRE CODE. AND SO WE STARTED WITH THAT. AND THEN AS WE WERE REVIEWING THOSE FIRE CODES, WE FOUND SOME THINGS THAT WE FELT LIKE WE COULD CLEAN UP AND DO BETTER IN THE SAME 2021, THE 2021 VERSION OF THAT. SO INSTEAD OF PIECEMEAL AND ALL THAT TOGETHER AND GOING THROUGH AND PICKING, PICKING DIFFERENT PARTS AND CORRECTING THEM, WE ADDED THE THINGS THAT, THAT WE FELT NEED TO BE ADDRESSED WITH, THE MAIN THING BEING THAT 2024, ADOPTION OF THE LITHIUM ION BATTERY STUFF. AND THEN, WE'RE REQUIRED TO HAVE A FIRE BOARD OF APPEALS. AND SO WE DISCUSSED THAT AND THOUGHT THAT THE ZONING BOARD OF ADJUSTMENTS WOULD BE A GOOD BOARD INSTEAD OF CREATING ANOTHER BOARD USING THAT SAME BOARD, THAT'S ALREADY ESTABLISHED TO REVIEW, FIRE CODE THINGS. IF ANYBODY EVER, WANTED TO PROTEST THOSE. SO THAT'S REALLY WHAT THIS IS, JUST CLEANING UP THAT ORDINANCE AND CLEANING UP THE ADOPTION OF THE 2021. AND I'LL BE GLAD TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. OKAY. MAYOR PRO TEM, THANK YOU. MAYOR. I DO HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT THE ADDITION OF THE FIRE BOARD BEING APPORTIONED TO THE BOA, IF THAT'S INSTITUTED AND WE AGREE TO THAT, WILL THERE BE SPECIAL TRAINING FOR THE BOA MEMBERS AND WILL THERE BE A, PERSONNEL FROM THE FIRE DEPARTMENT AS A LIAISON IF ONE OF THOSE ISSUES COMES BEFORE THE BOA TO OFFER PROFESSIONAL ADVICE BECAUSE THE BOA IN THEIR CAPACITY COULD RENDER A DECISION THAT CAN'T BE CHANGED. SO I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE DON'T HAVE, ANY KIND OF CROSSOVER BETWEEN WHAT THE FIRE DEPARTMENT DOES AND WHAT THE BOA ACTUALLY DOES IT. AND I KNOW THAT YOU'VE HAD THESE CONVERSATIONS WITH CITY MANAGER AND CITY STAFF, BUT I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE IS A LIAISON AVAILABLE TO THE BOA TO GIVE PROFESSIONAL OPINION AND ADVICE ON CASES AND INSTANCES THAT MAY COME IN FRONT OF THEM. ABSOLUTELY. AND WE'VE WE'VE NEVER HAD ANY OF THESE CHALLENGED, BUT BUT SHOULD WE HAVE WE WOULD ABSOLUTELY PROVIDE SOMEBODY TO, TO GIVE THAT PROFESSIONAL OPINION. GREAT. THANK YOU, COUNCILMAN WILLIAMS. THANK YOU MAYOR. SO I READ THROUGH SOME OF THE CHANGES, CHIEF, ON THE, ORDINANCES AND
[01:10:03]
WHATNOT. AND I KNOW THAT THE 2024 IFC TENDS TO DEAL WITH PREVENTING FIRE FROM THE ONSET.DOES IT DRILL IN TO IF THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH A LITHIUM ION BATTERIES? DEPENDING ON THE SCALE OF MAGNITUDE, THE CLEANUP, THE HAZMAT, THE ALL OF THE AFTER CARE IS THAT IS THAT ADDRESSED IN THIS AT ALL? IT I DON'T THINK I DON'T THINK IT DOES AS MUCH AS IT JUST, COME ON DOWN HERE.
COREY, COREY, COREY HAS BEEN THE ONE RESEARCHER THAT PUT IT ALL TOGETHER, BUT I THINK IT'S MORE JUST REGULATING WHAT CAN AND CAN'T BE DONE, WE'VE HEARD FROM A LOT OF OTHER CITIES THAT ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH, SAY, CHARGING SYSTEMS OR POWER WALLS IN PARKING GARAGES, WHICH WE DON'T HAVE ANY YET, BUT SHOULD WE EVER GET ONE OR I THINK IT'S MORE REGULATES THOSE KIND OF THINGS INSTEAD OF THE CLEANUP AND STUFF. BUT, I'LL LET CHIEF CLAYBORNE ANSWER THAT MORE SPECIFICALLY. YEAH. AS WE WENT THROUGH THAT, THE BIGGEST THING IT DID PROVIDE WAS IT ACTUALLY OUTLINED THE FACT THAT, ENGINEERS HAD TO COME UP WITH A PLAN. AND SO BY NOT HAVING ANY RIGHT NOW, THERE'S, EVERYTHING IS EVOLVING SO FAST WITH NO MATTER WHAT THE CHEMICALS ARE AND THAT, THAT THERE'S NOT GREAT SOLUTIONS. SO THIS IS A HAVING A WAY TO BUILD IT AND HAVE AT LEAST SOMETHING. AND SO, NO OTHER CODE ACTUALLY ADDRESSED THAT AT ALL YET. AND SO THIS IS GIVING US SOMETHING. IT'S NOT AS MUCH FOR THE SMALL RESIDENTIAL STUFF, BUT IT'S FOR YOUR BARE COMMERCIAL THINGS LIKE IF WE HAVE PLACES COMING IN LIKE, WHICH WE DO HAVE A FEW THAT ARE DOING LARGE SCALE STORAGE OF MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF LITHIUM ION, TURN SOMETHING INTO A SUPERFUND SITE IN A HEARTBEAT. YES, SIR. THAT'S THE QUESTION I HAVE IS FROM THE ONSET, IS THERE A WAY.
FOR US TO, MITIGATE THAT FUTURE LIABILITY ONTO SOMETHING THAT WHERE IT DOESN'T GO ON TO SOMEONE ELSE SO THAT IF SOMEONE COMES IN TO DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT, THEY'RE ACCEPTING THAT SHOULD SOMETHING HAPPEN, THEY'RE UP FRONT ACCEPTING OF THE LIABILITY OF RETURNING THAT BACK TO ITS PREVIOUS CONDITION. THE WAY I UNDERSTAND, THAT'S BY BUILDING THOSE PLANS. THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE ACTUALLY WE'RE HAVING SOMETHING THAT, YOU KNOW, SAYS THAT THEY ARE PREPARED AND THEY UNDERSTAND WHAT THAT IS. OKAY. SO WE'LL CONTINUE. WE'LL WORK ON MAKING SURE THAT STAFF OKAY. THANK YOU. COUNCILMAN STRANG THANK YOU. MAYOR, JUST A QUICK QUESTION. KIND OF LIKE WHAT, MAYOR PRO TEM WAS ASKING ABOUT WITH THE BOA TAKING OVER. KIND OF SOUNDS LIKE THEY WON'T REALLY HAVE ANY EXTRA WORK FOR THEM TO DO. EXPECTED OUT OF THIS. I DON'T EXPECT ANY, CHIEF CLAYBORN AND HIS TEAM DO A GOOD JOB OF WORKING WITH OUR CONTRACTORS, AND WE TRY TO BE REASONABLE, AS LONG AS IT'S SAFE. AND IT'S GOOD FOR THE OCCUPANTS OF THOSE BUILDINGS AND FOR OUR COMMUNITY, BUT I DON'T ANTICIPATE. LIKE I SAY, TO MY KNOWLEDGE, WE'VE NEVER HAD ONE, AND I DON'T THINK IT WILL BE A LOT A WORKLOAD FOR THEM. YEAH, THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT WE HEARD.
OKAY. THANKS A LOT. YEAH. IF WE START INTERVIEWING ALL THESE PEOPLE TOMORROW NIGHT. SO IT'S GOOD TO KNOW WHAT'S THAT? WE STARTED INTERVIEWING ALL THESE FOLKS TOMORROW NIGHT, SO IT'S GOOD TO KNOW. VERY TIMELY. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. MAYOR PRO TEM. SO YES, YOU BRING UP AN INTERESTING POINT ON THE LITHIUM ION. THE FIREWALLS ARE ACTUALLY THE POWER WALLS AND PEOPLE'S GARAGES, ETC. CURRENTLY WE REQUIRE A PERMIT FOR PEOPLE PUTTING THOSE POWER WALLS IN. DO YOU ALL HAVE A LOCATOR IN THE SYSTEM, THAT SAYS, HEY, THERE'S LITHIUM ION BATTERY, THERE'S A CHARGING UNIT HERE. THERE COULD BE A CAR INSIDE THAT GARAGE. WE CAN, OUR PREVENTION GUYS ARE GOING OUT AND DOING THE INSPECTIONS, AS IS THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT, AND THEN OUR PREVENTION FOLKS ARE ADDING THAT TO AN ALERT IN OUR CAD SYSTEM THAT TELLS US WHEN WE'RE RESPONDING THERE. SO THEN WE HAVE THEM. SO FOR THEM TO PUT IN A CHARGING STATION, IT'S A REQUIREMENT THAT THEY PULL A PERMIT. CORRECT? CORRECT NOT FOR A CHARGING STATION. NO, NOT FOR A CHARGING STATION. I'M SORRY. SOLAR PANELS IS WHAT I WAS THINKING OF. SO IT'S NOT A REQUIREMENT FOR THEM TO PULL A PERMIT FOR A CHARGING STATION IN THEIR GARAGE? NO, BECAUSE IT'S JUST A. CHARGE I WAS, I WAS I WAS REFERRING TO A SOLAR PANEL THAT HAS A CHARGING SYSTEM OR A BATTERY BANK THAT IS REQUIRED. OKAY, BUT NOT A CHARGING SYSTEM FOR A VEHICLE THAT WOULD BE UNDER THE THAT WOULD FALL UNDER THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT. SO IF THEY HAD TO DO A SIGNIFICANT ENOUGH WIRING, THEN THEY WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR PULLING AN ELECTRICAL PERMIT. RIGHT, CURRENTLY THE FIRE DEPARTMENT IS ONLY INVOLVED IF IT'S A SOLAR PANEL. AND THEN WE DO TRACK WHETHER THERE'S GOING TO BE A POWER WALL INSIDE OF IT. AND, WE DO WHEN THERE IS A BATTERY OR S BATTERIES IN THE, GARAGES, WE DO REQUIRE THEM TO ADD A SMOKE DETECTOR OR A HEAT DETECTOR OVER IT TO ALERT SOMEBODY INSIDE IN CASE THOSE DO CATCH ON FIRE. SO THAT'S KIND OF THE EXTENT OF WHERE WE'RE AT ON THAT RIGHT NOW. BUT AS FAR AS CHARGING A VEHICLE, NO, WE DON'T TRACK THAT. OKAY. WOULD THAT BE HELPFUL? I WOULD THINK BECAUSE IF THERE IS IF YOU'RE FIGHTING A
[01:15:04]
FIRE THAT HAS A LITHIUM BATTERY, IT'S DIFFERENT THAN FIGHTING A FIRE WITH A WOOD STRUCTURE WITH.ABSOLUTELY. SO I GUESS, IS THERE IS THAT A BUILDING CODE ISSUE? DO THEY CURRENTLY REQUIRE PERMIT FOR THAT? I DON'T KNOW OKAY. YEAH. BECAUSE I THINK THAT'S IT PROBABLY WOULD BE IMPORTANT TO ADD TO THAT AS WELL. RIGHT. BECAUSE IF THEY'VE GOT A VEHICLE INSIDE THE GARAGE THAT CATCHES FIRE AND YOU SHOW UP, UNLESS YOU SEE THE BRAND NAME ON THE CAR ON THE BACK RIGHT THERE. WE'VE JUST ACTUALLY DONE QUITE A BIT OF TRAINING ON THIS IN-HOUSE. AND, WE'VE SENT SOME GUYS TO SOME CONFERENCES TO LEARN ABOUT IT. THERE ARE SOME TELLTALE SIGNS, AND WE'VE RECENTLY PURCHASED SOME EQUIPMENT TO HELP US HELP US DETECT THOSE. BUT NO, WE WON'T KNOW. IT WOULD BE NICE TO KNOW. I DON'T KNOW THAT WE CAN DO ANYTHING UNDER THE FIRE CODE, EXCEPT MAYBE COMMUNICATE WITH BUILDING THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT WHEN THEY DO ONE. BUT AGAIN, IF, LIKE COREY SAYING IF IT DOESN'T REQUIRE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF WIRING, THAT THEY HAVE TO PULL A PERMIT, I DON'T KNOW, THAT BUILDING WOULD EVEN KNOW THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING WE WOULD HAVE TO WORK WITH THEM ABOUT. OKAY.
THANK YOU. OKAY. DO WE HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR CHIEF BLIGH OR IN GENERAL? AND IF NOT, I'D BE OPEN TO A MOTION ON THE ITEM. COUNCILMAN WILLIAMS. THANK YOU, MAYOR. I'D MAKE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE ITEM AS PRESENTED. MOTION TO APPROVE. DO WE HAVE A SECOND MAYOR PRO TEM? THANK YOU.
I'LL SECOND THE MOTION. MOTION WITH A SECOND TO APPROVE. COUNSEL PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE.
MOTION CARRIES SIX ZERO. WITH COUNCILMAN DUKE ABSENT. THAT DOES COMPLETE OUR REGULAR AGENDA
[WS1. Discuss the Five-Year Projections for the General Fund.]
THIS EVENING. SO WE'LL MOVE INTO OUR WORK SESSION. WORK SESSION NUMBER ONE IS TO DISCUSS THE FIVE YEAR PROJECTIONS FOR THE GENERAL FUND. MISTER PARKER. OKAY, I DIDN'T KNOW IF YOU WERE.MISS BROWN WAS PRESENTING. GOOD EVENING. THIS BE PRETTY BRIEF, I BELIEVE. SO AS WE'RE CONTINUING THE BUDGET PROCESS FOR THE FY 25 BUDGET, ALL THE DEPARTMENTS BUDGETS WERE DUE LAST FRIDAY. SO WE'LL BEGIN WORKING THROUGH THOSE. THIS NEXT WEEK. BUT ONE THING I WANTED TO, GET IN FRONT OF YOU ALL, AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE. I'VE SPOKEN WITH EACH OF YOU, GAVE YOU SOME EXAMPLES OF TAX RATE. THIS HAS CHANGED, AS I INDICATED TO ALL OF YOU, OH, GOSH. WE GOT TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET FULL SCREEN HERE. CAN YOU ALL SEE THAT MENU VIEW? OH, THAT'S WHAT I WAS MISSING. WELL, IT'S NOT LIT UP. NO. OKAY. YOU'LL JUST. YOU'LL JUST HAVE TO GO WITH THIS. IT'S OKAY. BUT AS YOU RECALL, WE DID THE, SALARY BUDGET AMENDMENT, AT MID-YEAR, SO THESE ARE ASSUMPTIONS. THIS IS NOT BASED ON ANY, ACTUAL NUMBERS. THAT'S WHY IT'S PRETTY FLUID. UNTIL WE GET INTO THE INTO THE ACTUAL DEPARTMENT BUDGETS, THESE ASSUMPTIONS HERE, THIS FY 2425 BUDGET, COLUMN THERE IS BASED ON, THE WE HAVE THE CERTIFIED PRELIMINARY NUMBERS FROM THE, TAX ASSESSOR.
WE'RE WE HAVE IN HERE, THE SALES TAX IS EXPECTED TO GROW 10% NEXT YEAR. WE'RE CURRENTLY AT ABOUT 7. THERE IS, A MILLION AND A HALF IN EMS REVENUE INCLUDED IN THIS BUDGET. THAT'S FROM THE REVENUE SIDE. THE EXPENDITURE SIDE, PERSONNEL EXPENSES ARE INDEXED AT 4. STEP PLAN IS A 4% INCREASE. THIS WILL ALSO HOPEFULLY INCLUDE ALL OF, ANY INCREASE FOR HEALTH INSURANCE.
CURRENTLY, WE'RE, AT ABOUT 103% OF OUR USAGE FOR HEALTH INSURANCE, THIS DOES INCLUDE A, 5% MARKET ADJUSTMENT. IF NEEDED FOR THE PUBLIC SAFETY STEP PLAN, THERE'S ABOUT 4.4 MILLION
[01:20:05]
INCLUDED IN HERE FOR THE PAY PLAN INCREASE. WE DID INCREASE THIS, FOR INFLATION IN THE PAST, WE HAD, ACCOUNTED AT ABOUT A 1.5% INCREASE FOR INFLATION. WE INCREASED THAT TO 3. THIS DOESN'T INCLUDE ANY VEHICLES. PERSONNEL REQUEST, IT DOES INCLUDE, WE'RE GOING TO RECOMMEND MOVING, SOME EMPLOYEES FROM THE PARKS DEPARTMENT OUT, OUT OF THE GENERAL FUND INTO FOR BE, ABOUT HALF OF THEM, WHICH IS ABOUT $750,000. THIS THIS DOES INCLUDE THAT NUMBER. SO THIS FIRST, SLIDE HERE, YOU'LL SEE, I DON'T THINK IT'S THE SLIDE I WANT TO SHOW YOU YET. GO UP ONE HERE. OH, NO. YEAH. THAT'S THE RIGHT ONE. THAT'S THE FIRST ONE WE HAVE. YEAH, I DIDN'T WANT I WANT TO LOOK AT THIS ONE NEXT. SO BASED ON OUR ESTIMATIONS, THE, WELL, LET ME BACK UP ONE SECOND. SO WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THE, WE'RE CAPPED BY 3.5, BASED ON LEGISLATION THAT EQUALS ABOUT A PENNY AND A HALF AND THEN THE, INCREMENTAL RATE THAT WE HAVE AVAILABLE IS ABOUT $0.03. SO ABOUT FOUR AND A HALF CENTS TOTAL, THIS SLIDE HERE SHOWS US, WHAT WE ESTIMATE THE, THE NO NEW REVENUE RATE TO BE, THIS CURRENTLY WE'RE AT 53.882, AND WE'RE ESTIMATING IT TO BE 54 9979 NEXT YEAR. SO BEFORE YOU MOVE ON, I JUST WANT TO REMIND EVERYONE WHO MAY NOT BE ON COUNCIL BUT IS WATCHING OR WATCHES US IN THE, AFTERWARDS THAT THEY'RE GOING TO SAY, HOW CAN THE RATE BE HIGHER THAN IT WAS THE YEAR BEFORE FOR THE NO NEW REVENUE RATE? AND THAT HAPPENS WHENEVER WE SEE VALUATION OPTIONS THAT ESSENTIALLY STAY FLAT OR DROP OR FOR WHATEVER REASON, WHETHER IT'S A COMBINATION OF THE MARKET WITH THE HIGH INTEREST RATES THAT WE HAVE, KEEPING IT FROM GROWING AND AFFECTING COMMERCIAL VALUES AND THINGS LIKE THAT, THAT ALTOGETHER CREATES A SITUATION WHERE THE SAME REVENUE YOU WOULD RAISE THE RATE TO BEGIN WITH FOR THE NO NEW REVENUE, BECAUSE IT'S THE OPPOSITE WAY WITH THE SLOW ECONOMY. RIGHT. THE NO NEW REVENUE RATE. YES NOT NO NEED FOR ME TO RE-EXPLAIN THAT, THIS ONE IS THE. OH, THIS IS OKAY. MY APOLOGIES. THIS IS A 3.5% REVENUE ARE NOT THE NO NEW REVENUE RATE, BUT WE ARE LOOKING AT THE POTENTIAL FOR THAT TO BE PART OF THIS YEAR ANYWAY, EVEN IF IT ISN'T ON THIS SLIDE. YEAH. JUST SO THAT PEOPLE IN THE PUBLIC ARE AWARE THAT SO, SO BASED ON THIS ONE, BEING THE THREE AND A HALF, THAT'S I'M SORRY, THE NO NEW REVENUE RATE, OBVIOUSLY BASED ON THIS WITH THE 3.5% CAP, WE'RE ABOUT, ONE 2 MILLION SHORT OF A BALANCED BUDGET. SO THIS NEXT OPTION OR SLIDE HERE, IS, ADOPTING THE FULL VOTER APPROVAL RATE AT THEIR AT $0.58, AND YOU CAN SHOW SEE THERE THAT THE, BUDGET IS BALANCED AND WE HAVE A EXCESS OF $289,000, THAT'LL GIVE US ABOUT $289,000 TO DO SOMETHING WITH, THIS ALSO DOES INCLUDE, THE MILLION DOLLAR. OH, I SHOULD HAVE MENTIONED THAT THIS DOES INCLUDE THE MILLION DOLLARS OF NEW REVENUE, LOOKS A LITTLE OVER $1 MILLION THAT WE GET FROM NEW CONSTRUCTION. SO THAT'S REALLY ALL I WANTED TO SHOW YOU ALL THIS EVENING. AND I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. NO. READY? DOESN'T APPEAR THAT WE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS THIS EVENING. I KNOW YOU'VE SPENT TIME PRESENTING TO US AND ANSWERING QUESTIONS. I'M SURE FOR ALL OF US, I THINK CURRENTLY IT'S PROBABLY TOO EARLY TO. OH, COUNCILMAN WILLIAMS, I'LL JUMP IN, WHICH I THINK ON THAT. THAT PROJECTED[01:25:03]
20, 24, 25, WE WERE ACTUALLY LOOKING AT THAT, 289 WAS A SHORTFALL, WASN'T IT? NO. NO, SIR, THAT THAT IS OKAY. IT'S RED . I WAS THINKING THAT MEANT SHORTFALL, BUT THAT THAT IS THE OVERAGE. GOTCHA. WELL I'M COLORBLIND, SO IT LOOKS LIKE FOR ME THAT HELPS. I WOULDN'T KNOW ANY DIFFERENT, BUT IT'S NOT IN. SO JUST TO MAKE SURE I'M SEEING IT. RIGHT. WHAT WE'RE PROJECTING, AND THIS IS, I REALIZE JUST ALL PROJECTIONS IS IF WE HAVE A TAX RATE OF A 4.5% INCREASE, OR FOUR AND A HALF CENT INCREASE, ALONG WITH A REVENUE INCREASE OF 5 MILLION, WE'RE GOING TO END UP BEING RIGHT AT BALANCED OR 289,000 IN EXCESS. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHERE YOU GOT THE 5 MILLION IN REVENUE INCREASE, FROM YOUR PROPERTY TAX REVENUE FROM 30.5 MILLION TO 35 MILLION. SO WE GOT A OH, YEAH, THAT GETS GENERATED BY THE CHANGE IN THE RATE ALONG WITH THE NEW ABOUT $1 MILLION FROM NEW PROPERTY AND THE OTHER, OTHER IS FROM THE CHANGE IN THE RATE GOING UP. RIGHT. I SEE WHAT IT IS. I'M JUST TALKING THE ACTUAL AMOUNT THAT AND I'M JUST MAKING SURE THAT I UNDERSTAND IT IS ALL I'M TRYING TO GET AT THAT. IF IT DOES INCREASE, IF THAT PROPERTY TAX REVENUE DOES INCREASE 4.7 MILLION, WE'RE GOING TO END UP WITH A OVERAGE OF ABOUT 300,000. AND IT SOUNDS LIKE THAT DIFFERENCE IS, SOME OF THE CHANGES WE MADE THIS YEAR IN THE MID-YEAR BUDGET, COMBINED WITH SOME OTHER THINGS THAT THAT'S WHAT KIND OF ABSORBS THAT. AND THAT IT WOULD IT BALANCES IN MY MIND. I'M JUST MAKING SURE THAT I GOT IT RIGHT.OKAY. THAT'S IT. THANK YOU. OKAY IF THERE SHAKING. YES. AND I'M OKAY. COUNCILMAN MALIKI CAN APPRECIATE THE WORK THAT WAS DONE TO GET THIS OVER TO US AND REALLY START THIS PROCESS AS WE GO HERE, CAN YOU GO OVER THE IN TERMS OF THE EXPENSES, WHAT'S INCLUDED IN THIS IN TERMS OF THE PAY RAISES, NOT RIGHT NOW, BECAUSE WE HAVEN'T GOTTEN INTO ANY OF THE BUDGETS YET, BUT IT'S INCLUDED IN THIS. DO YOU WANT TO RUN THROUGH THE ASSUMPTIONS AGAIN, REAL QUICK? ASSUMPTIONS? OH THE ASSUMPTIONS. SURE. YEAH EXPENSE ASSUMPTIONS THAT YOU'D LISTED OUT. ABSOLUTELY. IF YOU DON'T MIND.
