AND IT'S A REALLY DIFFICULT COMBINATION.
SO, UH, WE CONTINUE TO ENCOURAGE EVERYONE TO BE EXTRA SAFE ABOUT, UH, THINGS THAT COULD CAUSE, UH, GRASS TO IGNITE BECAUSE IT'S A SIGNIFICANT PROBLEM ONCE IT DOES.
I'D ALSO LIKE TO THANK, UH, DEPUTY CITY MANAGER, CUMMINGS AND THE TEAM FOR ABLY MANAGING EVERYTHING LAST WEEK DURING MY VACATION AND, UH, UH, APPRECIATED THE OPPORTUNITY TO, UH, TO COME BACK TO EVERYTHING JUST BEING RIGHT WHERE IT WAS WHEN I LEFT AND, UH, APPRECIATE ALL THEIR HARD WORK THERE.

LAST WEEK, THIS IS ONE THAT HAS BEEN A DIRECT, UM, UH, DIRECT GUIDANCE FROM THE CITY COUNCIL IN TERMS OF HOW WE ARE PREPARING OUR INCOMING BOARD AND COMMISSION, UM, MEMBERS FOR, FOR SERVICE.
AND SO THIS IS A MUCH, MUCH MORE SIGNIFICANTLY PREPARED PROCESS THAN IT USED TO BE IN THE OLD DAY.
I THINK THE MAYOR SAID, YEAH, THEY JUST SORT OF THREW ME ON THE BOARD AND I HAD TO FIGURE IT OUT.
UH, WE'VE ALREADY SEEN SOME GREAT RESULTS FROM THAT.
AND, UH, SO I APPRECIATE THE WORK THAT WENT INTO IT AND, UH, THE GUIDANCE THAT THE MAYOR AND CITY SECRETARY AND THEIR STAFF, UH, HAVE PROVIDED OUR NEWEST MEMBERS THAT WERE MOST RECENTLY APPOINTED BY THE COUNCIL, UH, AT YOUR DIOCESE ARE A COUPLE OF SHEETS OF PAPER.
THE FIRST ONE IS THE, UH, QUARTERLY UTILITY DASHBOARD.
WE USED TO DO PRESENTATIONS, BUT THAT'S KIND OF A WELL-OILED MACHINE THERE, BUT WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU'RE RECEIVING THAT INFORMATION WITH OUR KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS FOR OUR UTILITY BILLING PROCESS.
AND SHE NOTICED IS ALSO SOMETHING THAT THE COUNCIL HAS SPENT A LOT OF TIME ON IMPROVING AND PROVIDING US BOTH RESOURCES AND DIRECTION TO DO THAT.
YOU'LL SEE THAT WE'RE CONTINUING TO OPERATE VERY EFFICIENTLY IN THAT OPERATION, VERY HAPPY WITH WHERE WE'RE GOING, BUT WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU SAW THAT.
AND THEN ALSO THERE IS AN UPDATED OR A SUPPLEMENTAL QUOTE FROM S H I THAT'S ALSO ON YOUR DYESS AND THAT'S ASSOCIATED WITH CONSENT ITEM EIGHT B, JUST SO YOU KNOW WHAT TO CONNECT THAT TO.
UM, AS YOU KNOW, WE DO HAVE SCHEDULED, UM, A RESIDENTIAL AND PLAN DEVELOPMENT TOUR.
THE SATURDAY OF THE METROPLEX, WE HAVE A NUMBER OF SUBDIVISIONS ON THE AGENDA.
I'M GOING TO ASK OUR PLANNING DIRECTOR, LASHONDRA STRINGFELLOW TO GIVE YOU JUST A LITTLE BIT OF A PREVIEW FOR THAT.
AND THEN WE WILL LOOK FOR ONE, WE VERY MUCH APPRECIATE YOUR WILLINGNESS TO SACRIFICE AN ENTIRE SATURDAY FOR, UH, FOR THAT ENTERPRISE.
BUT SECOND, UH, COMING OFF OF THE WORKSHOP THAT WE HAD WITH THE RESIDENTIAL STRATEGIES,
[00:05:01]
UM, UH, EXPERT, WE THINK IT WILL BE A VERY BENEFICIAL SET OF INFORMATION TO BE ABLE TO HELP YOU PROVIDE GUIDANCE FOR THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND ADJUSTMENTS TO THE ZONING CODE, TO BE ABLE TO SUPPORT THOSE ITEMS. SO SHONDRA GOOD EVENING CITY COUNCIL AND MAYOR I'M THE SHONDRA STRINGFELLOW PLANNING DIRECTOR.AND SO, UM, WE PICK BOB DIFFERENT SITES FOR YOU ALL TO TOUR.
WE COULD HAVE PICKED ANY NUMBER OF DIFFERENT SITES, UM, TO BE HONEST WITH YOU, HOWEVER, THESE ARE THE ONES THAT WE LANDED ON FOR VERY SPECIFIC REASONS.
SO THE FIRST ONE THAT WE WILL BE TOURING, UM, WE'RE GOING TO BE OVER IN THE RALEIGH AREA.
FIRST ONE IS BAYSIDE AT LAKE RAY HUBBARD.
SO MERITAGE HOMES, WHICH HAS AN INTEREST IN ENTERING INTO THE CEDAR HILL MARKET HAS DEVELOPED, UM, SOME SMALLER LOT HOUSES ON THE BAYSIDE AREA, UM, RIGHT THERE IN RALLIES.
SO WE THOUGHT THAT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA FOR YOU TO GET AN IDEA OF THOSE.
SO YOU CAN, YOU KNOW, DIRECT STAFF, IS THIS SOMETHING THAT WE THINK, YOU KNOW, MY WORK AND SOME PART OF CEDAR HILL, OR IF NOT, SO AGAIN, WE'RE JUST TRYING TO KIND OF FIND OUT WHAT IT IS THAT YOU ALL LIKE, YOU KNOW, WHAT IT IS THAT, YOU KNOW, YOU THINK IT'S NEEDS SOME IMPROVEMENT.
UM, NEXT WE'LL, WE WILL BE GOING TO MAGNOLIA LAND PLANNING.
UM, THE D THE BOULDER, THERE IS LANDON HOMES.
IT'S A LARGER DEVELOPMENT, BUT IN PARTICULAR, WELL, I WOULD, I WOULD LIKE FOR YOU ALL TO LOOK AT, UM, IS A PORTION YOU'RE FAMILIAR WITH THE COTTAGES, WHICH WAS THE BILL TO RENT.
SO THESE ARE THE LARGER, THESE NOT BUILT.
THIS IS NOT A MILITARY COMMUNITY, BUT IN TERMS OF THE HOUSING TYPE IT'S ALONG THAT SAME TYPE OF HOUSING EXCEPT LARGER HOUSES.
SO WE LIKE TO, FOR YOU ALL TO SEE THAT DEVELOPMENT AND WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE IN A LARGER FORMAT, THEN NEXT WE HAVE INSPIRATION.
SO THIS IS, UM, UP NORTH, A PORTION OF IT IS, UM, OUTSIDE OF THE WILDLY ETJ.
AND THEN THE, THE REST OF IT IS, UM, ST.
SO THIS IS THE DEVELOPER OF THIS PARTICULAR DEVELOPMENT IS HOOKED ONTO ALPHONSE, DOES HAVE AN INTEREST ALSO, UM, WITHIN THE CEDAR HILL AREA.
AND SO, UM, THIS IS A PRETTY LARGE DEVELOPMENT, BUT THERE ARE SOME ELEMENTS HERE THAT WE WOULD LIKE FOR THE COUNCIL TO TAKE A LOOK AT.
THEY HAVE A VARIETY OF HOUSING STYLES, VARIETY OF HOUSING TYPES, AND ALSO DIFFERENT AMENITIES.
SO WE'D LIKE TO GET YOUR, YOU KNOW, FEEDBACK OR, YOU KNOW, AGAIN, WHAT IT IS THAT YOU THINK, UM, WAS KEY TO MAKING THAT, UH, PARTICULAR DEVELOPMENT SUCCESSFUL.
THEN WE'RE GOING TO GO OVER, WE'RE STILL UP NORTH HERE, BUT, UM, IT'LL PROBABLY TAKE ABOUT AN HOUR TO GET THERE JUST BECAUSE OF TRAFFIC.
UM, WE'LL BE GOING TO HEAL WOODS UNION PARK DEVELOPMENT.
AND SO WHAT I THINK IS VERY INTERESTING ABOUT THIS ONE IS I THINK THEY DO AN EXCELLENT JOB OF COMBINING SOME OF THE NATURAL PARK FEATURES, UM, AS WELL AS THOSE THAT, YOU KNOW, HAVE, YOU KNOW, REALLY BEEN MASSAGED.
SO THEY ACTUALLY HAVE, THEY PROBABLY CALL IT CENTRAL PARK.
UM, IF THEY WEREN'T AFRAID OF NAMING RIGHTS, THEY PUT A HUGE PARK IN THE CENTER OF THE DEVELOPMENT.
UM, AND THEY CALL THAT, YOU KNOW, THEY'RE, I CAN'T REMEMBER EXACTLY WHAT THEY CALL IT.
UM, BUT THE ENTIRE DEVELOPMENT OF COURSE, IS JUNIOR PARK AND EVERYTHING KIND OF, UM, HAS DEVELOPED AROUND THAT CENTRAL PARK AREA.
AND THEN WE'RE GOING TO END THE TOUR WITH VERIDIAN.
THIS IS DEVELOPMENT THAT IS ON THE NORTH SIDE OF ARLINGTON, JUST SOUTH OF EULAS, BUT RADIAN IS ALSO A LARGE 2000 ACRE DEVELOPMENT.
I'M A PART OF THAT ACTUALLY HAS, UM, A BIRD SCORE, BUT A BIRD SANCTUARY USED TO BE CALLED A BIRD SPORT.
SO, UM, WE'LL BE LOOKING AT HOW THEY INCORPORATED THAT DEVELOPMENT, UM, WITH ALL THE OTHER DIFFERENT STYLES OF HOUSING WITHIN THAT PARTICULAR DEVELOPMENT.
UM, AND THEN WE HOPE TO, UM, GET BACK HERE AT CITY HALL AT FOUR 30.
UM, AGAIN, THIS IS OUR PRELIMINARY AGENDA.
IF YOU ALL HAVE SOME IDEAS ON SOME OTHERS THAT, YOU KNOW, YOU WOULD LIKE FOR US TO LOOK AT INSTEAD, YOU KNOW, BY ALL MEANS WE CAN DO THAT.
I'M THE ONLY ONE THAT IS FOR THE MOST PART REALLY SAID, IS THAT INSPIRATION BECAUSE THAT ONE WILL BE A GUIDED TOUR, BUT EVERYTHING ELSE IS VERY FLEXIBLE.
UM, SANDRA REAL QUICK, UM, DO WE NEED TO BE PREPARED TO TAKE ANY NOTES OR YOU'RE NOT GOING TO PROVIDE US ANYTHING, YOU KNOW WHAT I WILL BE PROVIDING YOU WITH SOME, UM, I GUESS IN A WAY YOU COULD CALL IT THAT PRELIMINARY SCORECARD, YOU KNOW, MEANING, YOU KNOW, ASKING YOU, YOU KNOW, UM, LOT SIZES, FOR EXAMPLE, WE'LL HAVE THAT ON THERE, YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW, WHAT DID YOU THINK ABOUT THOSE, YOU KNOW, WHERE THEY DID, THEY HAVE TOO MANY SMALL LIVES, WOULD YOU HAVE LIKED TO SAY LARGER LIVES, ALSO DIFFERENT HOUSING TYPES, HOUSING STYLES.
WE DEFINITELY WANT TO PAY ATTENTION TO THAT,
[00:10:01]
BUT THEN IT'S THOSE OTHER KEY ELEMENTS THAT WE REALLY FEEL LIKE, UM, MAKE A DEVELOPMENT UNIQUE.SO THAT'S GOING TO BE, UM, FOR EXAMPLE, DO THEY HAVE, UM, CERTAIN TYPES OF PAVING AT INTERSECTIONS? WHAT DO THE STREET SIGNS LOOK LIKE? UM, DID THEY DO SOMETHING SPECIAL EVEN WITH IT, IF THE SUBDIVISION HAS, OR THE DEVELOPMENT HAS A LIGHT, YOU KNOW, THAT THEY DO SOMETHING SPECIAL WITH THE STREET.
SO IT'S ALL THOSE LITTLE DETAILS THAT REALLY MATTER.
WE SAY THAT WE ALSO WANT YOU ALL TO PAY ATTENTION TO.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? SO I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS, THIS TOUR ON SATURDAY, BUT WE WILL BE BACK HERE BY FOUR 30, CORRECT? YES, YES.
WELL, AS LONG AS THE WAY ANY OF THESE HOUSES AFFORDABLE HOUSE.
SO, YOU KNOW, I THINK THAT IS A GREAT QUESTION FOR US TO ASK, UM, CHUTZPAH IN PARTICULAR, BECAUSE WE WILL HAVE A TOUR GUIDE, UH, WHAT I CAN DO, UM, COMMISSIONER DANIELS IS FOR THE ONES THAT WE'RE GOING TO LOOK LIKE, I CAN REACH OUT TO THEM, YOU KNOW, TO SEE KINDA WHAT THEIR PRICE RANGES ARE.
AND THEN I CAN HAVE THAT AVAILABLE FOR YOU ON SATURDAY.
SO THAT'S THE KIND OF INFORMATION THAT WE'RE SEEKING.
IF THERE'S SPECIFIC INFO, LIKE PRICE RANGES AND SO FORTH, WE'LL DEFINITELY PROVIDE THAT INFORMATION EITHER AT THAT TIME OR SHORTLY THEREAFTER ONCE SCORECARD'S A GOOD IDEA, HUH? EXACTLY WHERE ALL OF OUR NOTES CONSISTENT, WHY WE'RE DOING IT FOR SURE.
