OUR NEXT ITEM IS THE COMPREHENSIVE MONTHLY FINANCIAL REPORT FOR MARCH. DENISE TACKE? >> THANK YOU. GOOD EVENING. I'M DENISE TACKE, TIME FINANCE DIRECTOR FOR THE CITY OF PLANO. AND I AM HERE TO PRESENT TO U T COMPREHENSIVE MONTHLY FINANCIAL REPORT FOR MARCH 2022. THIS SLIDE REPRESENTS REVENUES COMPARED TO BUDGET BY FUND. THE GENERAL FUND HAS REVENUES OF $228.4 MILLION FOR THE FIRST HALF OF THE FISCAL YEAR. THIS REPRESENTS 78% OF THE TOTAL ANNUAL BUDGET. THE WATER AND SEWER FUND REPRESENTS 46.3% OF THE TOTAL ANNUAL BUDGET. SO WATER AND SEWER RUNS PRETTY MUCH 50%, AND THEN OF COURSEHEENERAL FUND WE'VE COLLECTED ALL THE ADD AD VALUEOREM TEXAS. THIS REPRESENTS OUR EXPENDITURES, THE GENERAL FUND HAS EXPENDITURES OF 144 MILLION FOR THE FIRST HALF OF THE FISCAL YEAR, THAT IS 49.1% OF EXPENDITURES THE EXPENDITURES FOLLOW ALONG THE FISCAL YEAR PATH. THE WATER AND SEWER FUND HAS EXPENDITURES OF 64 MILLION, WHICH REPRESENTS 45.3% OF THE TOTAL ANNL BUDGET. THIS SLIDE REPRESENTS OUR NET CHANGE IN FUND BALANCE FOR THE PAST THREE YEARS, IN THE GENERAL FUND FOR THE FIRST HALF OF THE FISCAL YEAR, THE FUND BALANCE HAS INCREASED. THIS IS TRENDING BELOW WHERE WE WERE AT THIS TIME IN THE PRIOR FISCAL YEAR. THE WATER AND SEWER FUND BALANCE HAS DECREASED BY 2.1 MILLION, THIS IS ACTUALLY IN A BETTER POSITION THAN WE WERE IN PRIOR FISCAL YEAR. AND THAT'S PRIMARILY DUE TO THE FACT THAT WE WEREN'T COLLECTING THOSE LATE FEES AS WE WERE COMING OUT OF THE PANDEM. THE ENVIRONMENTAL WASTE SERVICES FUND HAS DECREASED BY 3.3 MILLION, AND THE MUNICIPAL DRAINAGE FUND HAS INCREASED BY 38,000. THIS IS OUR GENERAL FUND REVENUES ACTUAL COMPARED TO ACTUAL, THEY ARE HIGHER THAN THE PRIOR FISCAL YEAR BY $11 MILLION. THERE WAS AN INCREASE OF PROPERTY TAXES OF $574,000, BUT OUR SALES TAX REVENUE IS WHAT IS REALLY DRIVING THIS INCREASE, THAT HAS INCREASED BY 7.1 MILLION OVER THE PRIOR -- THE FIRST HALF OF THE PRIOR FISCAL YEAR. THERE WAS ALSO AN INCREASE IN BUILDING PERMIT REVENUES OF 2.1 MILLION, AND SEVERAL OTHER CATEGORIES OF REVENUE SHOWED A REBOUND FROM REOPENING SUCH AS THE REC MEMBERSHIP FEES AND SWIMMING POOL FEES. THIS IS OUR GENERAL FUND EXPENDITURES ACTUAL COMPARED TO THE PRIOR FISCAL YEAR. THEY'RE HIGHER THAN PRIOR YEAR BY 23.5 MILLION. PERSONNEL CTS INCREASED BY 11.7 MILLION DUE TO A 3% SALARY ADJUSTMENT EFFECTIVE OCTOBER OF 2021. LAST YEAR PERSONNEL COSTS WERE OFFSET BY A REIMBURSEMENT, IF YOU RECALL, AGAINST THE SALARIES OF 9.3 MILLION THAT WAS FOR CARES FUNDING. ALSO, THE TIMING AND THE PAY PERIODS FROM THE PRIOR FISCAL YEAR, SOMETIMES THAT CAN ALWAYS THROW THINGS OFF. YOU MAY HAVE ONE MORE PAY PERIOD IN THIS FIRST SIX MONTHS THAN YOU DID IN THE PRIOR FISCAL YEAR. CONTRACTUAL PROFESSIONAL FEES INC INCREASED BY 1.1 MILLION DURING TO HIGHER INFORMATION SERVICES CHARGES AND INCREASED FUEL CHARGES. WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO SEE THOSE INCREASED FUEL CHARGES AS WE GO FORWARD. THIS IS OUR HEALTH CLAIMS FUND. THIS HAD A DECREASE IN FUND BALANCE OF ABOUT $4.7 MILLION, MOSTLY DUE TO THE INCREASE IN EXPENSES AS EMPLOYEES HELD OFF GOING TO THE DOCTOR DURING THE PANDEMIC AND THEN THEY -- THEY NOW STARTED TO START BACK UP WITH THOSE DIFFERENT APPOINTMENTS THAT THEY NEEDED TO HAVE AND CATCHING UP ON ROUTINEXAMS,T CETERA. SO WE'VE HAD A LOT OF LARGE CLAIMANTS, AS WELL. THIS FUND HAS A FUND BALANCE OF $11.8 MILLION. OUR POLICY IS ACTUALLY TO KEEP 6 MONTHS WORTH OF CLAIMS PLUS IBNR IN THE FUND BALANCE, AND WE ARE REALLY UNDER THAT AT THIS POINT IN TIME. SO OUR PLAN WAS TO INCREASE THE EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTION PORTION STARTING THIS MARCH, WHICH WE DID. WE'VE PUT THAT IN PLACE ALREADY. AND THEN WE'RE ALSO REVIEWING THE PLAN RIGHT NOW TO SEE WHAT KIND OF OTHER COSTS WE MAY NEED TO PASS ON TO OUR EMPLOYEES. THE NUMBER OF YEARS SINCE WE'VE DONE THAT, SO IT'S SOMETHING THAT HOPEFULLY OUR EMPLOYEE BASE WILL UNDERSTAND THAT IT'S GOING TO BE NECESSARY TO GET THIS FUND WHOLE, SO HERE OUR UNEMPLOYMENT RATES IN DECEMBER WERE AT 3.1%, AND THEY HAVE DECREASED IN MARCH TO 2.8%. HERE IS WHERE WE'RE LOOKING AT OUR SALES TAX FOR THE MONTH OF APRIL. THAT WAS UP COMPARED TO THE PRIOR YEAR BY 19.75%. WE'RE FINALLY SEEING THAT RECOVERY IN OUR SALES TAX THAT'S GOING T HELP UWITH THIS BUDGET THIS YEAR, AS THE BUSINESSES HAVE OPENED BACK UP. OUR REAL ESTATE MARKET RECAP SHOWS THE NUMBER OF DAYS ON THE MARKET WAS AT 22 IN DECEMBER, COMPARED TO 12 DAYS IN MARCH, WHICH SHORTENED QUITE A BIT UP THIS SPRING. THE PERCENT OF ASKING PRICE IN DECEMBER WAS 103%. IT'S NOW A WHOPPING 110% IN MARCH, SO IT'S REALLY, YOU KNOW, WE'RE SEEING THAT PRESSURE ON THE REAL ESTATE MARKET RIGHT NOW. MORE REAL ESTATE INFOATION, THE N SELLING PRICE FOR A HOME IN PLANO WAS AT 456,500 IN DECEMBER, THAT IS NOW AT 540,000 IN MARCH, SO A PRETTY SUBSTANTIAL INCREASE. WE ACTUALLY ONLY HAVE ACCESS TO THE MEDIAN PRICE IN THE DATA NOW. THEY CHANGED THE METRICS WHERE WE WERE GETTING SOME OF OUR INFORMATION, SO WE'RE LOOKING AT MEDIAN PRICE INSTEAD OF THE AVERAGE PRICE. THE PRICE PER SQUARE FOOT IN DECEMBER WAS 198 COMPARED TO 222 IN MARCH, SO WE'RE SEEING ALL OF TT PRESSURE IN THE REAL ESTATE MARKET. OUR HOTEL OCCUPANCY TAX IS UP BY 1.7 MILLION COMPARED TO THE PRIOR FISCAL YEAR. IT'S GOOD, WE'RE SLOWLY SEEING THAT RECOVERY IN THAT INDUSTRY AFTER THE PANDEMIC. AND THEN THIS IS MY FINAL SLIDE, I NORMALLY GIVE YOU A COUPLE OF OTHER SLIDES, BUT ANDY ANDERSON, OUR TREASURER, IS GOING TO FOLLOW ME AND GIVE YOU A PRESENTATION OF QUARTERLY INVESTMENT REPORT, ANNUALLY, SHE PRESENTS THAT, BUT Y'ALL SEE THOSE QUARTERLY INVESTMENT REPORTSVERY QUARTER ON THE AGENDA. THIS SLIDE REPRESENTS OUR EQUITY AND TREASURY POOL. AND THE ENTERPRISE FUND OWNS 16% OF THE EQUITY AND TREASURY POOL, OF COURSE THAT IS YOUR WATER AND SEWER, YOUR ENVIRONMENTAL WASTE SERVICES, THOSE TYPE OF FUNDS, THE LARGEST SHARE OF THE EQUITY AS ALWAYS IS WITH THE CAPITAL PROJECTS FUNDS, THAT'S WHERE OUR BOND MONEY GOES. YOU KNOW, WE HAVE THREE YEARS TO SPEND IT, SO IT'S ALWAYS -- WE'RE ALWAYS SELLING DEBT EVERY YEAR, SO IT ALWAYS MAINTAINS A PRETTY SOLID BALAN. AND THEN YOU'LL SEE THAT NUMBER GET EVEN HIGHER IN THE JUNE BECAUSE THAT'S WHEN WE'LL CLOSE ON THE BONDS WE RECENTLY ISSUED. AND THEN THE GENERAL FUND HAS 19% OF THE EQUITY. AND WITH THAT, SLIDES SHORTENED THIS TIME, I WOULD BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. >> Mayor Muns: THANKS, DENISE. AANY QUESTIONS? THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THE NEXT ITEM IS QUARTERLY FINANCIAL REPORT FOR MARCH OF '22. AMY ANDERSON? . >> GOOD EVENING, I'M AMY ANDERSON, THE CITY'S TREASURER. I'M SUBMITTING A SUMMARY OF THE QUARTERLY INVESTMENT REPORT AS OF MARCH 31, AS WELL AS A COMPARISON OF OUR PORTFOLIO TO SEVERAL OTHER ENTITIES AS OF SEPTEMBER 30TH. THE PUBLIC FUNDS INVESTMENT ACT THE TEXAS GOVERNMENT CODE FOR PUBLIC FUNDS INVESTORS TO COMPLY WITH. HERE ARE SOME HIGHLIGHTS OF WHAT THE ACT COVS, B THE MOST IMPORTANT OBJECTIVE CAN BE REMEMBERED BY THE ACRONYM FLY. LISTED IN ORDER OF PRIORITY, THERE'S SAFETY OF PRINCIPAL. WE CANNOT INVEST IN A WAY WHERE WE LOSE PUBLIC FUNDS. WE BUY AND HOLD TO MATURITY, THERE'S NO SPECULATION OR TIMING OF THE MARKET. ALSO VERY CONSERVATIVE WITH ALLOWED INVESTMENT TIMES. LIQUIDITY. CASH IS MANAGED SO THAT WE PAY OUR EMPLOYEE, VENDORS AND MEET DAILY OPERATING NEEDS. WE HAVE A FIVE YEAR FORECAST OF OUR CASH NEEDSBASED ON THREE YEAR AVERAGES OF REVENUES AND EXPENSES. THIS IS A CONSERVATIVE APPROACH THAT HAS US WELL POSITIONED FOR ANY POTENTIAL ECONOMIC DOWNTURNS. AND THE LAST CONSIDERATION WHEN EVALUATING AN INVESTMENT IS YIELD. THIS IS THE PORTFOLIO'S COMPENSATION. ALL OF THE ACRONYMS LISTED ARE FEDERAL PROGRAMS BACKED BY THE FULL FAITH AND CREDIT OF THE UNITED STATES. CURRENTLY, THE LARGEST INVESTMENT SECTOR IS MUNICIPAL BONDS. JUST AS PLANO ISSUES BONDS, WE ARE ALLOWED TO INVEST IN OTHER LOCAL GOVERNMENT DEBT. PER OUR INVESTMENT POLICY, WE DO NOT INVEST (INDISCERNIBLE) OF THE PORTFOLIO IN ANY ONE INVESTMENT TYPE. JUST AS WE DIVERSIFIED BY INVESTMENT TYPE, WE DIVERSIFIED BY MATURITY. THIS IS CALLED LATTERRING. LADD. THIS ENSURES WE HAVE PROPER CASH FLOW TO COVER OUR NEEDS, BY POLICY, WE ONLY INVEST OUT TO FIVE YEARS. IN THE ZERO TO ONE YEAR COLUMN THERE, ABOUT HALF OF THAT BALANCE ARE LIQUID FUNDS IN BANK ACCOUNTS OR INVESTMENT POLES, THE REMAINDER ARE INVESTMENTS NEARING MATURITY. THIS IS THE QUARTER END BOOK VALUE OF THE PORTFOLIO, AND THE RESPECTIVE YIELDS EARNED FOR EACH PERIOD, FOR MARCH THE BOOK VALUE WAS $731.6 MILLION AND THE YIELD WAS 1.34% OR 134 BASIS POINTS. THIS YIELD WILL CONTINUE TO IMPROVE AS WE ARE IN A RISING INTEREST RATE ENVIRONMENT. YOU CAN SEE WE HAVE HIGHER BALANCES IN MARCH, WHEN WE ARE RECEIVING OUR PROPERTY TAXES IN THE FIRST QUARTER OF THE YEAR, AND AGAIN IN JUNE, WHEN WE ARE RECEIVING OUR BOND PROCEEDS. WHEN LOOKING TO INVEST, WE MATCH THE MATURITIES TO FUTURE CASH NEEDS AND THE EXPENDITURE HEAVY MONTHS. ACTUAL INTEREST EARNINGS FOR THE QUARTER WAS TWO AND A HALF MILLION DOLLARS. TO COMPLY WITH GOVERNMENTAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS, WE RECORD THE FAIR VALUE OF THE PORTFOLIO QUARTERLY. THIS PRICES THE PORTFOLIO AT CURRENT MARKET CONDITIOS. SINCE WE BUY AND HOLD OUR INVESTMENTS, THESE GAINS AND LOSSES ARE NEVER ACTUALLY RECOGNIZED. THERE'S AN INVERSE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN BOND PRICES AND INTEREST RATES, SINCE WE'RE IN A RISING INTEREST RATE ENVIRONMENT, THAT'S WHY YOU SEE THESE LARGE NEGATIVE NUMBERS AT THE BOTTOM. HOWEVER, THESE SHOULD BE CONSIDERED PAPER LOSSES ONLY. LOCAL GOVERNMENT INVESTMENT POOLS OR LGIPS FOR SHORT, SHORT-TERM POPE FRANCIS COMPRISED OF INVESTMENTS ALLOWED BY THE PFIA. THE ENTITY IS TO KEEP FUNDS FULLY LIQUID WHILE ALSO EARNING INTEREST. SOME ENTITIES CHOOSE TO KEEP THEIR MONEY INTO POOL ACCOUNTS AND DON'T GET OUT INTO THE MARKET. THIS IS ESPECIALLY TRUE FOR SMALLER MUNICIPALITIES. THIS WORKS WELL IN TIMES LIKE NOW WHEN INTEREST RATES ARE RISING, THE YIELD ON THEIR PORTFOLIO WILL RISE QUICKLY; HOWEVER, THIS SLIDE SHOWS THE BENEFIT OF ACTIVE MANAGEMENT OVER THE LONG-TERM. INVESTMENT POOLS TYPICALLY HAVE A AVERAGE MATURITY OF 90 DAYS OR LESS, WHEN YOU INVEST OUT LONGER, YOU HAVE HIGHER RETURNS, WITH THE CITY'S ACTIVE MANAGEMENT, WE'VE EARNED ADDITIONAL $2,200 OVER THE LAST TEN YEARS, VERSE STAYING IN TEX POOL ONLY, TEX POOL IS ONE OF THE OPTIONS UD HE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES. I ASKED SEVERAL ENTITIES FOR THEIR PORTFOLIO METRIC, THIS DATA SHOULD BE CONSIDERED FOR I WIL ILLUSTRATIVE PURPOSES OLY. THIS IS THE INTEREST EARNINGS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR DIVIDED BY THE 2020 CENSUS POPULATIONS. THE INTEREST HERE DOES INCLUDE MARKET GAINS AND LOSSES, WHICH WE DON'T RECOGNIZE SINCE WE ALL BUY AND HOLD OUR INVESTMENTS. FOR EXAMPLE, THE INTEREST AMOUNT USED FOR PLANO IS $3.5 MILLION, ACTUAL INTEREST EARNINGS FOR 11 MILLION FOR THE YEAR. PLANO'S YIELD OR TOTAL RETURN ON THE PORTFOLIO WAS THE HIGHEST OF EVERYONE POLLED. PARTIALLY DUE TO OUR WEIGHTED AVERAGE MATURITY OR WAM FOR SHORT OF 687 DAY, WHICH EQUATES TO 1.9 YEAR, THE LONGER YOU HOLD YOUR INVESTMENT, THE MORE EARNINGS YOU SHOULD RECEIVE, WHICH THIS GRAPH GENERALLY SHOWS. TWO AND A HALF YEARS IS THE LONGEST WAM THAT WE ALLOW BY INTERNAL POLICY. WE ALSO POOL OUR INVESTMENTS, WHICH RESULTS IN HIGHER RETURNS. SOME ENTITIES MAY MANAGE MULTIPLE PTFOLS OR HAVE DEDICATED INVESTMENT POOL ACCOUNTS FOR EACH BOND ISSUANCE WHICH WILL RESTRICT THEIR EARNINGS. THIS SHOWS THE PORTFOLIO SIZE COMPOSITION AND YIELD, COMPARED TO OUR NEIGHBORING CITIES. THE BLUE, ORANGE AND PINK SECTIONS ARE ALL LIQUID FUNDS, SO YOU SEE A LOT OF OUR NEIGHBORS ARE VERY HEAVILY INVESTED IN THE INVESTMENT POOLS. IT'S ALSO WORTH NOTING THAT FRISCO OUTSOURCES THEIR PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT. DALLAS AND RICHARDSON BOTH HAVE ASSET MANAGERS THAT PROVIDE RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE CITY, BUT IT'S STILL CITY STAFF THAT IS EXECUTING THE TRANSACTIONS. EVERYONE THAT WAS POLLED, EVERYONE ELSE THAT WAS POLLED, INCLUDING PLANO, MANAGES THEIR PORTFOLIO INTERNALLY. THIS IS PLANO COMPARED TO LARGER CITIES, AUSTIN, DALLAS, AND SAN ANTONIO ALL HAD WEIGHTED AVERAGE MATURITIES OF LESS THAN ONE YEAR, SO THEIR YIELDS ARE VERY SIMILAR. THIS IS PLANO COMPARED TO CITIES WITH COMPARABLE POPULATIONS. THE LIGHT BLUE COLOR, WE DIDN'T SEE ON THE PREVIOUS SLIDES IS COMMERCIAL PAPER. COMMERCIAL PAPER IS SHORT-TERM DEBT ISSUED BY A MPANY. SINC THICAN BE SLIGHTLY MORRIS CAN I, PLANO CHOOSES TO INVEST IN INVESTMENT POOLS THAT INCLUDE COMMERCIAL PAPER RATHER THAN CHOOSING INDIVIDUAL COMPANIES TO INVEST IN. AND YOU'LL SEE THE SIZE OF OUR PORTFOLIO IS ALSO RIGHT IN LINE WITH THE CITIES OF SIMILAR POPULATION. AND HERE IS COLLIN COUNTY. COUNTIES AND CITIES ARE DIFFERENT IN TERMS OF OPERATION, BUT THEIR PORTFOLIOS ARE STILL COMPRISED OF PUBLIC FUNDS SO IT'S INTERESTING TO SEE WHAT THEY ARE DOING AS WELL. THE LAST TWO SLIDES ARE THE PARTICIPANT PORTFOLIOS AS A PERCENTAGE OF THEIR OPERATING BUDGET. THE AVERAGE OF THESE PERCENTAGES IS 136% AND PLANO IS AT 118. THE TAKE AWAY HERE IS THAT WE ARE IN LINE WITH OUR PEERS AND THAT THAT PORTFOLIO IS SIZED APPROPRIATELY. AUSTIN'S PERCENTAGE IS LOW, BECAUSE WE ARE ONLY LOOKING AT OPERATING PORTFOLIO AND OPERATING BUDGET. THEY HAVE ADDITIONAL PORTFOLIOS THAT ARE MANAGED SEPARATELY. CONVERSELY, THE LARGER PERCENTAGES HERE WOULD INDICATE PORTFOLIOS HEAVILY COMPRISED OF BOND FUNDS THAT WODN'T BE INCLUDED IN THE OPERATING BUDGETS. AND BEFORE I CONCLUDE, I WANT TO SAY A QUICK THANK YOU TO JASON IN OUR BUDGET DEPARTMENT FOR PULLING THESE BUDGET NUMBERS FOR ME. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. >> Mayor Muns: THANK YOU. COUNCILMAN RICCIARDELLI? >> Ricciardelli: THANK YOU, MAYOR, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR GREAT WORK ON THIS, FOR THAT GREAT PRESENTATION. YOU KNOW, IT'S REALLY EXCELLENT TO SEE PLANO'S INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO OUTPERFORMING THAT OF OTHER CITY, YOU KNOW, AND ALSO OUTPERFORMING TEX POOL AND OTHER INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES, SO THAT IS NTASTIC. ONE THING THAT HAS BEEN ON MY MIND IS THAT IN THIS HIGH INFLATION ENVIRONMENT THAT WE'VE MORE RECENTLY GOTTEN INTO, WHERE INFLATION MIGHT BE 8 TO 9% ANNUALLY, DO TO THE FPIA, AND THE STRICTURES THAT THAT PLACES ON HOW WE CAN INVEST FUNDS AND ALSO THE SLY METHODOLOGY WHERE YOU TALK ABOUT, SAFETY OF CAPITAL PRESERVATION IS THE NUMBER ONE PRIORITY, AS IT REALLY MUST BE FOR A GOVERNMENTAL ENTITY, OUR RETURN OBVIOUSLY IS MUCH LESS THAN WHERE INFLATION CURRENTLY IS AS IS THE CASE, I WOULD ASSUME, WITH ALL GOVERNMENTAL ENTITIES, CERTAINLY ALL OF THE ONES IN THE PRESENTATION, AND THE CONSEQUENCE OF THAT IS THAT THE PURCHASNG POWER OF THE MONEY IN OUR INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO IS DECREASING OVER TIME DUE TO THE HIGH INFLATION ENVIRONMENT ON AN INFLATION-ADJUSTED BASIS. SO WITH ALL OF THAT BEING SAID, IS THERE ANYTHING THAT WE ARE DOING OR THAT YOU THINK WE SHOULD BE DOING DIFFERENTLY GIVEN HOW HIGH INFLATION HAS GOTTEN IN THE PAST, YOU KNOW, MONTHS OR PERHAPW IT WAS FOR MANY YEARS BEFORE THAT? >> I DON'T THINK THERE'S ANYTHING WE NEED TO BE DOING DIFFERENT. WE DO HAVE -- IF I CAN MAYBE GO BACK A LITTLE BIT. WE DO HAVE QUITE A BIT IN THE ZERO TO ONE YEAR RANGE. 40% OF THE PORTFOLIO, AND ABOUT HALF OF THAT IS SITTING IN CASH. AT ANY GIVEN TIME BETWEEN THE POOLS AND THE BANK ACCOUNTS, WE'RE SITTING ON $50 MILLION. I DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE EVEN IN NORMAL HEALTHY INFLATION TIMES REALLY GOING LOWER AND THAT BALANCE, I THINK IT'S ALWAYS BEEN VERY -- THE CASH HAS BEEN CONSERVATIVELY MANAGED. SO WITH INFLATION AND THIS CASH FLOW THAT WE ALREADY HAVE LINED UP, I DON'T HAVE ANY CONCERNS WITH MEETING THE NEEDS OF ANY FUTURE PURCHASES. >> Ricciardelli: OKAY. WELL, THANK YOU FOR THAT, A QUICK FOLLOW LON-ON QUESTION, MORE GRANULAR LEVEL, I NOTICE THAT THE -- FOR THE BANK ACCOUNT, EARNINGS THAT THE YLD IN THE PACKET I THINK IT SAID .15%, AND I KNOW THAT THERE ARE FDIC GUARANTEE BANK ACCOUNTS THAT ARE OUT THERE SORT OF HIGHER YIELD SAVINGS ACCOUNTS THAT ARE ADVERTISING AT LEAST AS HIGH AS .7%, IF NOT HIGHER. IS THAT AN OPTION THAT IS AVAILABLE TO THE CITY? >> SO BY LAW, WE HAVE TO REDO OUR DEPOSITORY CONTRACT EVERY FIVE YEARS, SO OUR PRIMARY DEPOSITORY ISN'T EARNING ANY INTEREST CURRENTLY. WHAT THEY OFFER IS A HIGHER EARNINGS CDIT RE THA WILL OFFSET. SO WE KEEP ENOUGH MONEY IN THAT ACCOUNT TO WHERE WE DON'T PAY FOR OUR FEES, WE DON'T -- >> Ricciardelli: GOT YA'. >> THAT WAY WE CAN USE THAT EXCESS MONEY TO INVEST ELSEWHERE, MOSTLY IN THE INVESTMENT POOLS TO KEEP THE FUNDS LIQUID. THEN WE HAVE A BACKUP DEPOSITORY THAT IS REALLY IN PLACE IN CASE ANYTHING FAILS WITH OUR PRIMARY DEPOSITORY. THAT INTEREST RATE WAS JUST RECENTLY NEGOTIATED FOR THE WORSE, SO WE PULLED SOME MONEY OUT OF THAT ACCOUNT AND REALLY ONLY LEFT ENOUGH MONEY TO COVER OPERATIONS IF NEEDED IN EMERGENCY SITUATION. WE HAVE ALSO HAD CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT WITH VARIOUS LOCAL BANKS AS AN INVESTMENT, FIXED RATE, FIXED TERM, THIS HAS BEEN A GREAT INVESTMENT; HOWEVER, IN THEIR RISING INTEREST RATE ENVIRONMENT, THE BANKS ARE A LITTLE BIT SLOWER TO MATCH THOSE RATES, SO WE'RE ALWAYS TRYING TO BALANCE WHAT THE BEST VALUE IS, WHETHER IT BE CASH OR TYING IT UP IN AN INVESTMENT. I'M HOPING THAT THE BANKS WILL CATCH UP SOON AND WE CAN PLACE MORE IN CDs, BUT AS FAR AS JUST EXTERNAL SAVINGS ACCOUNTS, THAT'S ESSENTIALLY WHAT WE USE THE INVESTMENT POOLS FOR. THE FUNDS ARE READY SAME DAY. WE CAN PULL IT IN AND PULL IT OUT WITHIN THE SAME OPERATING DAY. SO I DON'T SEE THE NEED FOR ADDITIONAL BANK ACCOUNTS AND PAPERWORK. >> Ricciardelli: CERTAINLY UNDERSTOOD THERE. THANK YOU FOR THAT GREAT INFORMATION. I DID HAVE ONE MORE QUESTION. THANK YOU, MAYOR. OKAY. THIS IS MY LAST QUESTION ABOUT THE INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO. THANK YOU FOR ALL OF THAT CELLENT INFORMATION. GIVEN THE RISING INTEREST RATE ENVIRONMENT THAT WE'RE IN, WHICH OBVIOUSLY MEANS THAT AS WE -- AS WE ISSUE BONDS, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO PAY HIGHER INTEREST TO GET PEOPLE TO BUY THOSE BONDS BECAUSE OF THE ALTERNATIVES THAT ARE OUT THERE TO EARN HIGHER INTEREST WITH THE FED RAISING RATE, WOULD IT MAKE SENSE TO GO FROM THE ANNUAL ISSUANCE OF BONDS TO SEMI ANNUAL OR EVEN QUARTERLY ISSUANCE OF BONDS, BASICALLY DOES THE FACT THAT WE'RE GOING TO PAY MORE INTEREST ON BONDS THAT WE'RE ISSUING CHANGE THE CALCULATION WITH RESPECT TO TRANSACTIONAL COSTS TO WHERE IT WOULD BE WORTH MORE FREQUENT ISSUANCE OF BONDS -- SORRY ABOUT THAT. SORRY TO GET YOU UP, DENISE. >> THAT'S OKAY. SO NOW YOU'VE MOVED ON FROM DEBT ISSUANCE TO INVESTMENT. SO WHAT SHE IS PRESENTING TO YOU IS THE INVESTMENT. >> Ricciardelli: OKAY. >> ON THE DEBT ISSUANCE SIDE, IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO DO IT MORE THAN ONCE A YEAR. WE HAVE TO PAY THE RATING AGENCIES $30,000 EACH OR MORE TO RATE US EACH TIME, SO IF WE WERE TO DO THAT SEMI ANNUALLY, IT'S ALSO, YOU KNOW, KIND OF A GUESS WHAT THE MARKET'S GOING TO LOOK LIKE IF YOU'RE ISSUING THE DEBT A COUPLE OF TIMES A YEAR. SO IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO DO THAT THAT OFTEN. IT'S A PRETTY ARDUOUS -- >> Ricciardelli: GOT YA'. >> -- PROCEDURE. I MEAN, WE START WITH A BOND CALENDAR, WITH OUR FINANCIAL ADVISORS IN JANUARY, AND WE DON'T SETTLE UNTIL JUNE. SO IT'S A LONG TIME. THOSE DOCUMENTS THAT PAIGE SHARED WITH YOU, THOSE OFFICIAL STATEMENT, PRETTY DETAIE O THEM -- >> Ricciardelli: OH, FOR SURE. >> THE REASON WE ISSUE IN JANUARY, WE USUALLY HAVE FINAL NUMBERS, BECAUSE WE HAVE ALL OF THESE FINANCIAL NUMBERS, THAT GIVES THE RATING AGENCIES MORE COMFORT, IT ALSO GIVES OUR INVESTORS MORE COMFORT IN KNOWING WE HAVE THOSE AUDITED FINANCIALS. IF YOU DID THAT MID YEAR, YOU WOULD HAVE TO DO A LOT MORE DUE DILIGENCE ON WHAT THE MID YEAR NUMBERS ARE SINCE THEY HAVEN'T BEEN AUDITED. SO THERE'S A NUMBER OF REASONS THAT THAT PROBABLY ISN'T A BEST PRACTICE -- >> Ricciardelli: SURE. SURE. >> BUT THAT'S WHY WE DO IT ANNUALLY -- >> Ricciardelli: THANK YOU FOR THAT GREAT INFORMATION. THAT MAKES SENSE. THAT WAS WHY I WAS ASKING, BECAUSE I KNOW THE TRANSACTIONAL COSTS ARE SIGNIFICANT, AND I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT EVEN WITH A HIGHER INTEREST RATE MEANING THAT WE'RE ACCRUING MORE INTEREST DURING THE COURSE OF A YEAR THAN WE USED TO, THE TRANSACTIONAL COSTS ARE STILL TOO HIGH TO MAKE IT WORTH DOING IT ANNUALLY. >> THEY REALLY ARE. YOU ARE PAYING YOUR BOND COUNCIL, YOU'RE PAYING YOUR FINANCIAL ADVISOR FOR EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THOSE TRANSACTIONS YOU DO, SO IT MAKES MORE SENSE TO DO IT ONE TIME YEAR. >> Ricciardelli: THAT MAKES SENSE. THANK YOU BOTH FOR THAT EXCELLENT INFORMATION. THAT WAS VERY HELPFUL. >> Mayor Muns: COUNCILMAN WILLIAMS? >> Williams: YES, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THIS INFORMATION. THE ECHO IS WITH ME AS WELL. THE -- MY QUESTION IS TANGENTIAL TO COUNCILMAN RICCIARDELLI'S MAY BE THE SAME, I AGREE WITH HAVING A MINIMUM CASH BASIS. NOW WITH WHAT I THINK IS PROBABLY THE LIKELIHOOD OF HAVING AN OFFICIAL RECESSION PRONOUNCED AT THE END OF Q2 AND WITH THE FED EXPECTED TO TAKE INCREASINGLY AGGRESSIVE ACTION WITH THE INTEREST RATES, IS THERE ANYTHING THAT WE'RE PLANNING ON DOING OR INDEED WE CAN DO WITH THE LIMITATIONS ON OUR INVESTMENT STRATEGY WITH OUR EXISTING PORTFOLIO IN ORDER TO MITIGATE THE EFFECTS OF THAT, ESPECIALLY OVER THE NEXT 12 TO 18 MONTHS OR DO WE JUST HAVE TO BRACE FOR IT? >> OUR STRATEGY HAS ALWAYS BEEN PRETTY DISCIPLINED. WE JUST STAY THE COURSE. WE GET THE MONEY IN. WE INVEST IT. WE ESSENTIALLY JUST GET WHAT WE GET AT THAT TIME. SO WHEN WE HAVE THE CASH, WE INVEST IT OUT. WE TRY NOT TO OR-INVEST TO WHERE WE'RE LOCKING UP FUNDS WHEN WE MIGHT NEED THEM. SO I AGREE WITH YOU THAT I THINK A RECESSION, HIGHLY LIKELY. BUT I THINK BETWEEN THIS CASH LADDER THAT WE HAVE HERE, WHERE WE'RE CONSTANTLY HAVING THESE MATURITIES COME IN TO FILL THESE HOLES WHEN WE NEED THEM, AS WELL AS MAINTAINING A PRETTY HEALTHY LIQUID BALANCE, I DON'T FORESEE ANYTHING CHANGING IN THE STRATEGY TO HELP WEATHER A POTENTIAL DOWNTURN. >> YOU'RE WELCOME.K YOU. >> Mayor Muns: OKAY. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >> THANK YOU. >> Mayor Muns: OUR NEXT ITEM IS 2022 CITIZEN SURVEY RESULTS PRESENTATION. KAREN RHODES-WHITLEY. >> GOOD EVENING. KAREN RHODES-WHITLEY. THIS EVENING WE ARE GOING TO PRESENT TO YOU THE CITIZENS SURVEY THAT JUST WAS COMPLETED BY ETC INSTITUTE, AND ON A ZOOM CALL IS JASON MORADO. HE HAS DONE OUR SURVEYS BOTH CITIZENS AND BUSINESS SURVEYS SINCE 2012, SO WE'VE BEEN TEN YEARS WITH HIM. DUE TO US BEING ON ZOOM, I AM GOING TO HAVE TO FORWARD THE SLIDES FOR HIM. JASON, IF YOU COULD GO AHEAD, THAT WOULD BE GREAT. >> OKAY, SOUNDS GREAT. THANKS KAREN. MY NAME IS JASON MADO, I WITH ETC INSTITUTE. AND WE'RE (INDISCERNIBLE) SPECIALIZES IN CONDUCTING SURVEYS FOR LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, AND WE JUST FINISHED FOR THE FIFTH TIME CONDUCTING A RESIDENT SATISFACTION SURVEY FOR THE CITY OF PLANO, AS KAREN MENTIONED, WE'VE DONE A NUMBER OF BUSINESS SURVEYS AS WELL. TODAY I'M GOING TO WALK THROUGH WITH THE HIGH LEVEL FINDINGS FROM THE SURVEY. I HAVE JUST ONE SLIDE HERE ABOUT THE ETC INSTITUTE. WE'RE BASED IN THE KANSAS CITY AREA. WE'RE A NATIONAL LEADER IN PROVIDING MARKET RESEARCH FOR LOCAL GOVERNMENTS. WE'VE BEEN DOING THIS TYPE OF WORK FOR 40 YEAR, AND IN THE LAST TEN YEARS ALONE, WE'VE CONDUCTED SURVEYS MORE THAN A THOUSAND COMMUNITIES ALL ACROSS THE COUNTRY, SO THIS IS REALLY THE TYPE OF WORK THAT WE SPECIALIZE IN. NEXT SLIDE. THIS IS JUST A QUICK RUN DOWN OF WHAT I'LL GO THROUGH TODAY. I'LL GO OVER THE PURPOSE METHODOLOGY OF THE SURVEY. WHAT I CALL THE BOTTOM LINE UP FRONT, MAIN CONCLUSIONS FROM THE SA SURVEY, THEN I'LL GO THROUGH THE MAJOR SURVEY. I'LL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS AS WELL. NEXT SLIDE. SO THERE'S SEVAL REASONS TO CONDUCT THE SURVEY LIKE THIS. ONE IS TO GET AN OBJECTIVE ASSESSMENT OF HOW SATISFIED RESIDENTS ARE WITH MAJOR CITY SERVICES. AND ALSO SEE WHAT RESIDENTS FEEL ARE THE TOP PRIORITIES FOR THE CITY. MOST OF THE QUESTIONS ON THIS YEAR'S SURVEY ARE THE SAME ONES IN PREVIOUS YEARS. EACH YEAR WE TREAT -- TWEAK THE QUESTIONS A LITTLE BIT, MOST OF THE QUESTIONS STAY THE SAME SO WE CAN MARY MEASURE TRENDS OVER TIME. NEXT SLIDE. AS I MENTIONED, THIS IS THE FIFTH RESIDENCE SATISFACTION SURVEY WE'VE CONDUCTED FOR PLANO, THE SURVEY WAS ADMINISTERED BY A COMBINATION OF MAIL AND ONLINE TO RANDOMLY SELECT RESIDENTS THROUGHOUT THE CITY, THAT IS OUR STANDARD METHODOLOGY FOR THESE TYPES OF SURVEYS. OUR GOAL IS TO RECEIVE AT LEAST 400 COMPLETED SURVEYS AND WE HAD A REALLY GOOD RESPONSE, JUST LIKE WE HAVE IN PREVIOUS YEARS AS WELL. WE ENDED ONE 547 COMPLETED SURVEYS, AND 547 SURYS AT THE 95% LEVEL OF CONFIDENCE HAS A MARGIN OF ERROR PLUS OR MINUS 4.2%, SO ESSENTIALLY THAT MEANS IF WE CONDUCTED THIS SURVEY SAME WAY 100 TIMES, 95 TIMES THE RESULTS WOULD BE PLUS OR MINUS 4.2% FROM WHAT WE'RE REPORTING. THE RESULTS AREN'T PERFECT, BUT THE MARGIN OF ERROR IS VERY SMALL. IN ADDITION TO THE STATISTICAL SURVEY, WE MADE THE SURVEY AVAILABLE FOR ANY RESIDENT TO FILL OUT ONES WHO WEREN'T SELECTED AS PART OF THE RANDOM SAMPLE AND WE PROCESSED THOSE RESULTS SEPARATELY FROM THE STATISTICALL. WE HAD 150 SURVEYS OUTSIDE THE RANDOM SAMPLE REPORTING ON HERE. AND WE'RE STILL PROCESSING THOSE RESULTS, BUT OVERALL, IT SEEMS LIKE THOSE ROYALTY RESS ARE VERY SIMILAR TO THE SURVEY. HERE WE HAVE A MAP OF THE CITY, THE RED DOTS ARE HOUSEHOLDS THAT COMPLETED THE SURVEY, A VERY GOOD DISTRIBUTION THROUGHOUT THE CITY, VERY SIMILAR TO PREVIOUS SURVEYS, AND AS WE WERE ADMINISTERING THE SURVEY, WE MADE SURE THE DEMOGRAPHICS OF SURVEY RESPONDENTS REFLECT THE ACTUAL POPULATION OF THE CITY. WE HAD A GOOD REPRESENTATION FOR KEY DEMOGRAPHIC GROUPS SUCH AS AGE, RACE, ETHNICITY AND GENDER. NEXT SLIDE. SO HERE ARE OUR MAIN CONCLUSIONS FROM THE SURVEY. GO AHEAD, NEXT SLIDE. SAME SLIDE, BUT WORDS POPPING UP. WE FOUND THAT RESIDENTS HAVE A VERY POSITIVE PERCEPTION OF THE CITY. 93% SURVEY RESPONDENTS ARE SATISFIED WITH THE OVERALL QUALITY OF CITY SERVICES, AND THAT IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTIONS ON THE VARY, BECAUSE THEY'RE ASKING RESIDENTS TO CONSIDER ALL THE SERVICE TT YOU'RE PROVIDING AND REALLY GIVE AN OVERALL SATISFACTION RATING FOR HOW WELL YOU'RE DOING. TYPICALLY IF THE RATINGS ARE HIGH FOR THE OVERALL QUALITY OF CITY SERVICES, MEANS THE RATINGS ARE VERY HIGH FOR THE MORE SPECIFIC SERVICES THAT WE RATE AS WELL. AND THEN MOST RESIDENTS ARE ALSO SATISFIED WITH THE OVERALL QUALITY OF LIFE ASSIGNMENT. WE ALSO FOUND THAT THE CITY IS MOVING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. SINCE THE LAST RESIDENT SURVEY WE CONDUCTED IN 2019, SATISFACTION RATING HAVE INCREASED OR STAYED THE SAME IN 28 OUT OF 44 AREAS. AND THAT INCLUDES 12 AREAS THAT HAVE HAD SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN SATISFACTION, ONLY TWO AREAS THAT HAD SIGNIFICANT INCREASE. AND THAT REALLY GOES AGAINST THE TREND OF WHAT WE'VE BEEN SEEING OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF YEARS. OVER THE PAST COUPLE OF YEAR, MOST CITIES THAT WE'VE SURVEYED HAVE HAD MORE DECREASES THAN INCREASES OF SATISFACTION. DUE MAINLY TO THE PANDEMIC AND JUST ALL THE ISSUES, CONCERNS THAT COME WITH THAT. THIS IS REALLY UNUSUAL TO SEE THIS MANY INCREASES COMPARED TO WHERE YOU WERE A FEW YEARS AGO, AND THE RESULTS WE EXCELLENT IN 2019 WHICH MAKES IT ESPECIALLY MORE IMPRESSIVE. NEXT SLIDE. THEN WE ALSO FOUND THAT SATISFACTION WITH CITY SERVICES IS MUCH HIGHER THAN PLANO THAN IT IS IN OTHER CITIES. THIS HAS BEEN THE CASE EVERY TIME WE'VE CONDUCTED YOUR SURVEY. YOU RATE ABOVE THE US AVERAGE IN 25 OF THE 27 AREAS COMPARED. WE'LL LOOK AT THAT IN MORE DETAIL A LITTLE BIT, BUT ONE OF THE AREAS THAT REALLY STOOD OUT WAS THE OVERALL QUALITY OF SERVICES, 42 PERCENTAGE POINTS ABOVE THE US AVERAGE, AND AGAIN, THAT IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTIONS ON THE SURVEY. ANOTHER AREA THAT REALLY STOOD OUT, SATISFACTION WITH CUSTOMER SERVICE AND CITY EMPLOYEES, 45 PERCENTAGE POINTS ABOVE THE US AVERAGE. AND THEN THE TOP OVERALL PRIORITIES ARE MAINTENANCE AND CITY STREETS AND PUBLIC SAFETY. NEXT SLIDE. SO WE FOUND OUT RESIDENTS HAVE A VERY POSITIVE RECEPTION TO THE CITY. YOU CAN SEE HERE THAT MOST RESIDENTS ARE SATISFIED WITH SAH PLANO, WITH THE OVERALL QUALITY OF SERVICES, THE OVERALL QUALITY OFIFE, THE OVERALL VALUE RECEIVED FOR TAX DOLLARS FEES, THE BLUE ARE THE POSITIVE RATINGS, VERY SATISFIED OR SATISFIED. THE GRAY ARE NEUTRAL. WE INTERPRET NEUTRAL AS THE MEDIAN EXPECTATION, NOT A BAD RATING BUT RATING OF A 3 ON A FIVE-POINT SCALE, AND THE PINK ARE DISSATISFIED OR VERY DISSATISFIED. NEXT SLIDE. THIS WAS THE VERY FIRST QUESTION ON THE SURVEY. HERE WE ASKED RESIDENTS TO RATE THEIR SATISFACTION WITH CITY SERVICES, LATER ON IN THE SURVEY, WE ASK ABOUT SOME MORE SPECIFIC ARE WITHIN SE O THESE CATEGORY, AND ONCE AGAIN, YOU CAN SEE THE POSITIVE RATINGS FAR OUTWEIGH THE NEGGENNIVE. REALLY ALL SERVICES RECEIVED HIGH RATINGS. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT STOOD OUT TO ME WAS HOW LOW THE DISSATISFIED RATINGS ARE. FOR MOST CATEGORIES, LESS THAN 10% OF RESIDENTS WERE DISSATISFIED. THE AREA WITH THE HIGHEST DISSATISFIED WAS MAINTENANCE OF CITY STREET, BUT EVEN FOR THAT, YOU HAD 24% WHO WERE DISSATISFIED OCCURRED TO 57% WHO WERE SATISFIED. NEXT SLIDE. SO WE ALSO FOUND THAT SATISFACTION WITH CITY SERVICES IS HIGH IN ALL PARTS OF THE CITY. NEXT SLIDE. SO HERE AGAIN WE HAVE A MAP OF THE CITY AND HERE WE BROKE THE RESULTS OUT BY CENSUS BLOCK. THESE ARE VERY SMALL AREAS, AND WHAT THIS DOES IS IT TELLS US RESIDENTS IN DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE CITY HAVE DIFFERENT PERCEPTIONS OF THE CITY OR RATING RATING SERVICES DIFFERENTLY. BREAK IT INTO THESE SMALLER GEOGRAPHIC AREA, YOU SEE SOME AREAS WHERE RESIDENTS ARE DISSATISFIED, FEEL LIKE THEY'RE NOT GAINING SERVICES PEOPLE OTHER PARTS OF THE CITY. THE PURPOSE OF THIS SLIDE IS TO REALLY LOOK AT THE RESULTS AT A MORE GRANULAR LEVEL. THIS FIRST CHART IS FOR THE OVERALL QUALITY OF CITY SERVICES, YOU CAN SEE THE ENTIRE MAP IS BLUE. IN FACT MOST OF IT IS DARK BLUE WHICH IS THE HIGHEST POSSIBLE RATING, SO THIS TELLS US THAT RESIDENTS IN ALL PARTS OF THE CITY ARE SATISFIED WITH THE OVERALL QUALITY OF CITY SERVICES, WHICH MEANS YOU'RE DOING A GREAT JOB PROVIDING SERVICES EQUALLY THROUGHOUT THE CITY. NEXT SLIDE. THE OVERALL QUALITY OF LIFE. AGAIN, THE ENTIRE MAP IS BLUE, IN FACT MOST OF IT IS DARK BLUE WHICH AGAIN IS THE HIGHEST POSSIBILITY. RESIDENTS THROUGHOUT THE CITY ARE SATISFIED WITH THE OVERALL QUALITY OF LIFE. NEXT SLIDE. THIS MAP REQUIRES SERVICES. HERE EVERY SINGLE AREA IS DARK BLUE WHICH IS THE POSSIBLE RATING, SO AGAIN, RESIDENTS THROUGHOUT THE CITY, EXTREMELY SATISFIED WITH FIRE SERVICES. NEXT SLIDE. AND POLICE SERVICES, AGAIN, THE ENTIRE MAP IS BLUE. SOME IS THE LIGHTER BLUE, BUT THAT IS STILL A VERY GOOD RATING. SO AGAIN, YOU'RE DOING A GREAT JOB PROVIDING POLICE SERVICES FOR ALL PARTS OF THE CITY. NEXT SLIDE. AND THEN THIS SLIDE IS FOR MAINTENANCE OF CITY STREETS. HERE YOU HAVE A LOT MORE YELLOW WHICH IS MORE OF AN AVERAGE RATING, THIS IS TYPICAL WHEN WE'RE ASKING RESIDENTS TO RATE STREETS. YOU'LL SEE SOME ORANGE OR RED WHICH WOULD INDICATE RESIDENTS ARE DSATIIED IN THOSE AREAS, AND SOMETIMES VERY LITTLE OR SOME CASES NO BLUE AT ALL. SO THESE RATINGS ARE ACTUALLY VERY GOOD COMPARED TO OTHER CITIES WHEN IT COMES TO RATING CITY STREETS. NEXT SLIDE. SO I MENTIONED THAT SATISFACTION OF CITY SERVICES IS MUCH HIGHER IN PLANO THAN OTHER COMMUNITIES. NEXT SLIDE. PLANO RATED ABOVE THE US AVERAGE IN 25 OUT OF THE 27 AREAS THAT WE PREPARED. SIGNIFICANT HIGHER IN 25 OF THOSE AREAS, WHICH MEANS 5% OR MORE, ALSRAISED SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER THAN THE TEXAS AVERAGE IN 24 OF THOSE 27 AREAS. NEXT SLIDE. FOR THESE NEXT FEW SLIDES, THE BLUE LINE OR PLANO RESIDENTS WHO ARE EITHER VERY SAGHTS IFIED TO SATISFIED, RESIDE LINE OR SATISFACTION RATINGS FOR RESIDENTS THROUGHOUT THE STATE OF TEXAS, THE YELLOW ARE THE RATINGS ACROSS THE US. SO THIS CHART FOR MAJOR CATEGORY OF CITY SERVICES, AND ALL FIFTEEN AREAS, RATINGS ARE SIGNIFICANTLY ABOVE THE US AVERAGE, AND THAT EVEN INCLUDES MAINTENANCE OF STREETS AND SIDEWALKS WHICH WERE SO OF E LOST AREAS ON YOUR SURVEY, WHEN YOU CAN SEE THOSE AREAS ARE WEIGHTED MUCH LOWER IN OTHER CITIES AS WELL. THERE WERE A COUPLE OF AREAS THAT ESPECIALLY STOOD OUT. ONE IS THAT CUSTOMER SERVICE AND CITY EMPLOYEES RATED 45 PERCENTAGE POINTS ABOVE THE US AVERAGE, AND THEN ANOTHER AREA THAT REALLY STOOD OUT WAS COMMUNICATION. RATED 47 PERCENTAGE POINTS ABOVE THE US. NEXT SLIDE. THIS SLIDE SHOWS PERCEPTIONS OF THE CITY. THESE ARE A COUPLE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT QSTIO O THE SURVEY, AND YOU CAN SEE FAR ABOVE THE US AND TEXAS AVERAGE IN BOTH OF THESE CATEGORIES. 93% OF RESIDENTS WERE SATISFIED WITH OVERALL QUALITY OF CITY SERVICES, REGIONAL AND NATIONAL AVERAGE ARE BARELY OVER 50%. AND 70% ARE SATISFIED WITH THE BUY, RECEIVE TAX DOLLARS AND FIESTA. THAT IS LOWER MAYBE THAN SOME OF THE OTHER CATEGORIES ON THE SURVEY, BUT YOU CAN SEE IT'S MORE THAN DOUBLE THE REGIONAL AND NATIONAL AVERAGE, SO FOR THAT QUESTION... ONE OF THE HIGHER NUMBERS IN NEXT SLIDE. AND YOU CAN SEE THE RESIDENTS FEEL SAFE IN PLANO, AND THE RATINGS ARE MUCH HIGHER THAN OTHER COMMUNITIES OVERALL, AND ALSO IN RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS DURING THE DAY, AS WELL AS AFTER DARK. NEXT SLIDE. THE ONLY AREAS THAT WE RATED BELOW THE REGIONAL AVERAGE WERE TRAFFIC SIGNAL AND ROAD TRAFFIC CONGESTION AND THAT'S THE CASE OF PREVIOUS SURVEYS AS WELL AND THAT HAS BEEN AN INCREASE IN SATISFACTION COMPARED TO 2019, IN THOSE AREASO WE ARE HEADED IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION BUT THOSE ARE STILL THE ONLY AREAS THAT RATE BELOW THE NATIONAL AVERAGE NEXT SLIDE. AND FOR ALL FOUR AREAS OF COMMUNICATION, YOUR RATINGS ARE ALSO SIGNIFICANTLY ABOVE THE REGIONAL NATIONAL AVERAGE. SAME WITH YOUR WEBSITE AND KEEPING RESIDENTS INFORMED ABOUT LOCAL ISSUES. AND THE AVAILABILITY OF INFORMATION FROM GOVERNMENT OPERATIONS AND THE LEVEL OF PUBLIC INVOLVEMENT IN DECISION-MAKING. AND IT'S ALSO MUCH HIGHER THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE. NEXT SLI. AND I MENTIONED ALSO EARLIER THAT THINGS ARE MOVING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. NEXT SLIDE. AND THE SURVEY OF 2019, SATISFACTION RATINGS HAVE INCREASED IN 24 AREAS, AND STAYED THE SAME IN 16, AND THAT INCLUDES 12 AREAS THAT HAD SIGNIFICANT SATISFACTION, SO 5% OR MORE, AND ONLY TWO AREAS THAT HAD SIGNIFICANT DECREASE. AS I MENTIONED THIS REALLY GOES AGAINST THE TREND OF WHAT WE'VE BEEN SEEING RENTL RECENTLY, MOST HAVE HAD MUCH MORE DECREASES OR INCREASES, COMPARED TO WHERE THEY WERE A FEW YEARS AGO. NEXT SLIDE. AND SO AT THE TOP OF SHOULD SLIDE SHOWS THE AREAS WITH THE BIGGEST INCREASE WITH SATISFACTION SINCE 2019. I WON'T READ THE WHOLE LIST TO YOU, BUT ROAD TRAFFIC CONGESTION AND TRAFFIC SIGNAL SYSTEMS FOR PUBLIC AREAS WITH THE BIGGEST INCREASES AND STILL BELOW THE NATIONAL AVERAGE, BUT DEFINITELY IMPROVING. AND OVERALL COMMUNICATION IS ANOTHER AREA THAT HAD A BIG INCREASE SINCE THE LAST SURVEY. TH'S A AREAHAT A LOT OF CITIES HAVE STRUGGLED WITH IN THE PAST COUPLE YEARS, SO THAT'S REALLY IMPRESS THEY HAVE IT IMPROVED BY 6% SINCE THE LAST SURVEY. THE ONLY AREA WITH SIGNIFICANT DECREASES WERE DART SERVICES. NEXT SLIDE. SO NOW WE'LL LOOK AT MAJOR PRIORITIES. NEXT SLIDE. AND THE FIRST QUESTION ON THE SURVEY WE SAW HOW SATISFIED RESIDENTS ARE WITH MAJOR CATEGORY OF CITY SERVICES. FOR A FOLLOW-UP QUESTION WE ASKED WHICH OF THESE SERVICES ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT FOR THE CITY TO PROVIDE? SO THE TOP PRIORITIES WERE MAINLY PUBLIC SAFETY SERVICES POLICE FIRE EMERGENCY/MEDICAL 911 SERVICES AND THEN STREETS. NEXT SLIDE. AND THE NUMBER FROM PREVIOUS YEARS, THIS IS WHAT WE CALL THE IMPORTANT SATISFACTION RATING. THIS ANALYSIS IS BASED ON TWO DIFFERENT TYPES OF DATA. FIRST, WE ASKED HOW RESIDENTS THEY ARE WITH SERVICES. AND THE FOLLOW-UP QUESTION WE ASKED WHICH SERVICES ARE MOST IMPORTANT FOR THE CITY TO PROVIDE. SO THE IDEA BEHIND THIS IS THAT THOSE AREAS THATAVE THAT COMBINATION OF LOW SATISFACTION BUT ALSO HIGH IMPORTANCE ARE THE AREAS THAT SHOULD BE THE MOST IMPORTANT TO FOCUS ON. AND THE TOP OVERALL PRIORITY IS STREETS AND TOWARDS THE BOTTOM IS SATISFACTION. AND THEN THE NEXT HIGHEST PRIORITIES WERE DIFFERENT ASPECTS OF PUBLIC SAFETY, POLICE BEING THE MOST IMPORTANT, AND OTHER HIGH PRIORITIES WERE EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES AND 911 AND THEN FIRE SERVICES. NEXT SLIDE. AND SO THAT'S REALLY ALL I HAD TODAY. JUST A QUICK RECAP, WEAW RESIDENTS, AGAIN, WITH A HIGH PERCEPTION OF THE CITY AND THE REALITYINGS HAVE ACTUALLY IMPROVED OVERALL SINCE 2019. NEXT SLIDE. ONCE AGAIN YOUR RATINGS ARE MUCH HIGHER THAN THE MOST CITIES AND THESE PRIORITIES SIMILAR TO PREVIOUS SURVEYS AND WITH THE MAKEUP OF CITY STREETS AND PUBLIC SAFETY. SO WITH THAT I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS, IF ANYONE HAS ANY. >> Mayor Muns: THANK YOU, JASON COUNCILMAN WILLIAMS. >> Williams: JASON, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THIS OVERVIEW.

SO ON THAT MAP THAT YOU HAVE SHOWN WHERE IT SHOWS SATISFACTION IN BLUE, THERE'S ALWAYS THIS ONE AREA THAT'S WHITE. SO, IS IT JUST THAT THERE'S NO RESPONSE IN THAT -- THAT AREA? >> WELL, IT'S SATISFACTION ABOVE THE [INDISCERNIBLE]. >> AH. >> ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT THE AREA -- PULL UP THE SLIDES. >> JUST WEST OF 75 UP TOWARDS THE TOP. >> SO EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOUR MAPS SHOWS THAT ONE IS WHITE. >> YEAH, I DON'T BELIEVE THAT WE HAD RESPONSES IN THAT AREA. SOMETIMES WE MERGE WITH A NEARBY CENSUS GROUP BUT I'LL CHECK ON THAT. >> IS IT BECAUSE IT'S JUST COMMERCIAL IN THAT AREA, WE HAVE SOME RESIDENTS THERE. >> WE NEED TO REMEMBER THAT THIS IS A CITIZEN SURVEY AND WE'LL DO A BUSINESS SURVEY IN THE FALL. SO, YEAH, JASON, IF YOU COULD DOUBLE CHECK, IT MAY BE THAT WE JUST DIDN'T RECEIVE RESPONSES FROM ANYBODY IN THAT AREA. >> YEAH, I BELIEVE THAT IT WAS -- MAINLY THE COMMERCIAL THERE MAY BE SOME RESIDENTS THERE BUT I BELIEVE THAT IT'S A VERY LOW POPULATION COMPARED TO OTHER AREAS BUT WE'LL TAKE A CLOSER LOOK BACK. >> Tu: THANK YOU. >> YEAH. >> Mayor Muns: ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR JASON?

AND THEN ITEM B IS DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE DIRECTION ON CHARTER AMENDMENTS AND CHARTER REVIEW.

AND WE BELIEVE THAT IT IS PRUDENT TO TABLE THAT INDEFITELY. SO, I -- I DON'T KNOW IF WE NEED A MOTION -- >> Mayor Muns: NO, NO, WITHDRAWING IT AT THIS TIME WOULD BE -- FINE. >> Ricciardelli: PERFECT. >> Mayor Muns: NEXT ITEM, CONSENT AND REGULAR AGENDAS. I KNOW THAT THERE'S A FEW THAT I NEED TO MAKE NOTE OF, SO ARE THERE ANY ITEMS THAT A COUNCIL MEMBER WOULD LIKE TO REMOVE? >> [INDISCERNIBLE]. >> Mayor Ms: NE, G AHEAD. >> ANYWAY, ITEMS C, D AND L. >> Mayor Muns: OKAY. >> THANK YOU, MAYOR. >> Mayor Muns: OKAY, C, D AND L. AND I BELIEVE THAT THE CITY -- OR GO AHEAD. >> YES, MAYOR AND COUNCIL, WE WOULD LIKE TO REMOVE ITEM M AND N, AS STAFF IS GOING TO BE EVALUATING SOME OPTIONS WITH THAT AND WE'LL BRING IT BACK -- WHEN WE'RE DECIDED. >> Mayor Muns: OKAY, THANK YOU.

I FIRST WANT TO SAY A THEM THANK YOU TO CHANETTE AND THE CITY OF PLANO AND ALL OF THE SERVICE PROVIDERS IN PLANO AND COLIN COUNTY WHO WORK TO SERVE AND HOUSE OUR NEIGHBORS EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS. IN THE LATEST POINT-IN-TIME ACCOUNT DATA ON OUR WEBSITE, COLLIN COUNTY HAS A POPULATION OF OVER 400NDIVUALSHAT ARE EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS WITHIN ITS BOUNDARIES. I ALSO WANT TO MENTION THAT AS OUR SYSTEM WORKS TIRELESSLY EACH DAY TO PROVIDE WRAPAROUND SERVICES, CASE MANAGEMENT AND HOUSING FOR OUR UNHOUSED NEIGHBORS, THAT WE CONTINUE TO NEED LANDLORDS AND ONGOING DEVELOPMENT THAT IS WITHIN REACH OF THOSE EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS. AS WE HAVE SEEN RISING HOME COSTS, WE KNOW THAT IT MAKES IT EVEN MORE DIFFICULT TO FIND AND TO MAINTAIN SAFE, STABLE HOUSING. WE HAVE A CONTINUED NEED FOR PARTNERSHIPS WITHIN OUR CITIES AND COUNTI TT HELPS US TO PLAN FOR AND TO MEET THE RISING NEED.

THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR SERVICE IN PLANO AND BEYOND, AND FOR THE WORK THAT YOU DO EACH DAY TO SERVE ALL RESIDENTS OF PLANO. INCLUDING OUR UNHOUSED NEIGHBORS. >> Muns: THANK YOU. >> THE NEXT SPEAKER IS KATHERINE GARDELANO-PARKER, I AM SORRY THAT I BUTCHERED THAT. >> I'M HERE TODAY TO ASK FOR YOUR HELP IN BANNING SHORT-TERM RENTALS IN PLANO. MY PARENTS MOVED TO PLANO IN 1972 FOR THE GOOD SCHOOLS AND THRIVING NEIGHBORHOODS. I GREW UP HERE. THIS WAS A GREAT PLACE TO BE A KID IN THE 70s. SINCE THEN I'VE LIVED IN MANY PLACES AND WHEN MY HUSBAND AND I RETURNED TO DALLAS WE MOVED TO PLANO. IN FACT, TOD WE LIVE IN THE SAME ZIP CODE AS MY CHILDHOOD HOME. WE'VE BEEN HOMEOWNERS IN PLANO FOR EIGHT YEARS, AND WE LOVE OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. ON SATURDAY, APRIL 2ND, WE LEARNED THAT THE HOUSE NEXT DOOR IS A SHORT-TERM RENTAL WHEN ALL OF THE CARS SHOWED UP FOR A POOL PARTY THAT RAN LATE INTO THE NIGHT, WITH LOUD MUSIC, CARS ON THE DRIVEWAY, FIGHTS IN OUR YARD. AT SOME POINT THERE WERE 17 CARS ON THE STREET, AND NO WAY FOR AN EMERGENCY VEHICLE TO GET THROUGH IF NEEDED. YOU SEE, WE LIVE IN AN OLDER NEIGHBORHOOD THAT HAS JUST TWO STREETS, AND ONLY ONE WAY IN. SINCE THEN THERE'S BEEN TWO MORE PARTIES WITH ANY NUMBER OF STRANGERS COMING IN AND OUT OF OUR QUIET LITTLE NEIGHBORHOOD. STRANGERS WHO HAVE NEVER BEEN ON OUR STREET AND PROBABLY NEVER WILL AGAIN. STRANGERS WHO DON'T KNOW THAT YOU NEED TO SLOW DOWN WHEN YOU TURN ON TO OUR STREET, BECAUSE TWO CHILDREN, A BROTHER AND SISTER, MIGHT BE ON THEIR BIKES, OR WHEN YOU DRIVE AROUND THE RVE, YOU MIGHT FIND TWO TEENS ON THEIR SCOOTERS WHO HAPPEN TO BE DEAF. OR WHEN YOU REACH THE CIRCLE YOU WILL OFTEN SEE A SMALL GROUP OF YOUNG CHILDREN PLAYING TOGETHER OUTSIDE WITH THEIR BABYSITTER. SO, YES, THE STRANGERS, THE PARTIES, THE CARS, THE NOISE, IT IS AWFUL. BUT DO YOU KNOW WHAT'S WORSE THAN A PARTY HOUSE ON THE WEEKEND? IT'S AN EMPTY HOUSE ALL WEEK. WEEK AFTER WEEK AFTER WEEK. IT'S THE FACT THAT WE K NO LONGR HAVE A NEIGHBOR. NEIGHBORS ARE THE FABRIC OFUR DAILY LIVES. TOGETHER NEIGHBORS TRADE HOUSE KEYS, CLOSE GARAGE DOORS, TO HELP TO CLEAN UP AFTER A STORM, SHARE THE BOUNTIES OF OUR GARDENS AND DELIVER MEALS TO THE SICK. IT'S JUST WHAT YOU DO AS NEIGHBORS. WHEN I WAS HOME ALONE AND LEARNED THAT MY FATHER WAS DYING OF PANCREATIC CANCER, I WALKED ACROSS THE STREET AND I SAT AT THE KITCHEN TABLE OF ONE OF MY NEIGHBORS WHO CONSOLED ME. THE BEATING HEART OF A NEIGHBORHOOD ARE THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE THERE. WHEN THE PEOPLE ARE GONE AND ALL THAT IS LEFT ARE THE EMPTY HOUSES, YOU HAVE LOST THAT NEIGHBORHOOD FOREVER. SO, PLEASE, I'M ASKING SAVE MY NEIGHBORHOOD, AND ALL OF THE NEIGHBORHOODS THAT HAVE MADE PLANO SUCH A GREAT PLACE TO LIVE. THANK YOU. >> Muns: THANK YOU. >> BILL FRANCE. >> MAYOR MUNS AND CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS, GOOD EVENING. I AM BILL FRANCE AND I LIVED IN PLANO FOR 25 YEARS. TONIGHT I REPRESENT THE TEXAS NEIGHBORHOOD COALITION. WE ARE HERE ONCE AGAIN TO ASK FOR YOUR HELP. YOU HAVE HEARD OR YOU WILL HEAR TONIGHT FROM SOME OF MY NEIGHBORS. EACH OF US HERE AND COUNTLESS OTHERS SHARE DIFFERENT PERSONAL STORIES, DIFFERENT BACKGROUNDS, AND DIFFERENT ZIP CODES. BUT WE ALL SHARE ONE THING IN COMMON -- WE DO NOT WANT SHORT-TERM RENTALS IN OUR NEIGHBORHOODS. I ASK ALL IN AGREEMENT TO PLEASE STAND AT THIS TIME. WE HAVE SUFFERED LONG ENOUGH. WE HAVE ENDURED THE LATE-NIGHT POLICE CALLS, THE TRASH, THE TURMOIL, THE VIOLENCE. IT'S TIME TO STOP CHASING THE EFFECTS OF THIS PROBLEM AND BEGIN TO ATTACK THE CAUSE. THE SOLUTION IS CLEAR. WE NEED TO END SHORT-TERM RENTALS IN OUR RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS. THE CITY BELIEVES THAT WE ARE POWERLESS TO TAKE ACTION. WELL, LET ME ASUR ME ASSURE YOUE ARE NOT POWERLESS. THE CITY OF ARLINGTON WAS NOT POWERLESS IT. PASSED AN ORDINANCE RESTRICTING SHORT-TERM RENTALS AND WHEN IT WAS CHALLENGED IN THE COURTS IT WAS UPHELD. THE CITY OF GRAPEVINE IS NOT POWERLESS IT. PASSED AN ORDINANCE TO BAN SHORT-TERM RENTALS WHICH WAS ALSO UPHELD IN THE COURTS IF WE, THE CITY OF PLANO, BELIEVE THAT THE EXISTING LAWS DO NOT GIVE US THE POWER AND AUTHORITY TO PROHIBIT THIS ACTIVITY, THEN WE NEED TO PASS NEW LAWS THAT WILL TONIGHT I HAVE ONE SPECIFIC REQUEST. IMMEDIATELY CONDUCT A REVIEW OF THE ARLINGTON AND GRAPEVINE ORDINANCES TO ANSWER ONE FUNDAMENTAL QUESTION -- WHY WOULDN'T THESE WORK HERE IN PLANO? WE'RE PLEADING FOR YOU TO CONDUCT THIS REVIEW WITHIN THE NEXT 70 DAYS. WE BELIEVE THAT YOU DO HAVE THE LEGAL AND MORAL AUTHORITY TO ACT. WE CANNOT STAND IDLY BY AS OUR NEIGHBORS CONTINUE TO DEGRADE. THIS IS OUR LIFE INVESTMENT. THESE ARE OUR HOMES. WE ARE YOUR NEIGHBORS. PLEASE, LET US COMMIT TONIGHT TO WORK TOGETHER TO RESTORE THE PEACE AND INTEGRITY AND TRANQUILITY TO OUR TREASURED PLANO NEIGHBORHOODS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND IMPENDING ACTION ON THIS URGENT AND IMPORTANT ISSUE. >> Muns: THANK YOU, SIR. >> IRENE YEH. >> HI, EVERYONE, I GUESS THAT I'M SUPPOSED TO SPEAK AFTER HIM -- I MEAN, BEFORE HIM, SO HE CONCLUDES IT, BUT LET ME JUST TELL MY STORY. MAYOR MUNS, AND MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL, MY NAME IS IRENE YEH AND MY FAMILY MOVED TO PLANO 30 YEARS AGO BECAUSE IT WAS A QUIET AND SAFE AND RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORS, AND WE LOVE PLANO. HOWEVER, THINGS STARTED TO CHANGE IN 2019 WHEN WE NOTICED UNUNUSUAL AMOUNT OF CARS PARKED ON THE BACK DRIVEWAY. AND THEY WERE OPERATING A HOUSE AS AN AIRBNB AS A HOTEL. AND IT STARTS IN THE EARLY SUMMER. WE EXPERIENCING HEALTH ISSUES, PROPERTY DAMAGE, AND UNAUTHORIZED PARTIES PAST QUIET HOURS AND OTHER NUISANCES TO NEIGHBORS. THE PEOPLE OF GROUP WHO RENT THIS FIVE-BEDROOM HOUSE FOR PARTIES AND THEY BLOCK THE BACK ALLEY AND PREVENT RESIDENTS FROM LEAVING OUR OWN HOME. THEY PRODUCE OVERFLOW OF TRASH AND THEY ALSO SCRATCHED AND BROKE MY BACKYARD FENCE MULTIPLE TIMES. THEN THERE IS THE NOISE. THERE'S LOUD MUSIC LATE INTO THE NIGHT AND WE'VE EVEN EXPERIENCED HOUSE GUESTS FIGHTING IN THE BACK ALLEY, WHICH WAKE US UP PAST MIDNIGHT, CAUSING MY HUSBAND TO HAVE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE. WE DON'T FEEL SAFE LIVING IN OUR OWN HOME. AND WE FELT COMPELLED TO INSTALL VIDE CAMAS IN OUR BACKYARD, SOMETHING THAT WE NEVER FELT TO DO IN A SAFE CITY LIKE PLANO. WE HAD TO CALL POLICE MULTIPLE TIMES, AGAIN, SOMETHING THAT WE NEVER HAD TO DO IN THE PAST 30 YEARS LIVING IN OUR HOUSE. MYSELF AND OTHER NEIGHBORS TRIED TO TALK TO THE AIRBNB HOSTS ABOUT THE ISSUE. DO YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED? HE THREATENED TO SUE US IF WE CONTINUED TO CALL POLICE, AND TO COMPLAIN TO AIRBNB TO IMPACT HIS BUSINESS REVENUE. I EMAILED THE PLANO COUNCIL IN JUNE 2020. I SPOKE IN A MEETING AS WELL. I PLEADED TO THE COURT TO SEE THE ORDINANCE IN PLACE. TWO YEARS, AND YET THERE IS NOTHING HAPPENED. I REALLY WAS KIND OF DISAPPOINTED. TONIGHT I'M HERE TO JOIN SOME OF THE NEIGHBORS WHO SUFFERED FROM THESE ISSUES, AND IF SOMETHING WAS DONE, THAT NONE OF THOSE GUYS WOULD HAVE HAD TO SUFFER THE SAME THINGS THAT I SUFFERED DOES THIS COUNCIL REPRESENT A FEW SELECT PROPERTY OWNERS AND OUT-OF-TOWN INVESTORS WHO RUN A HOTEL BUSINESS IN OUR BACKYARD? OR DO THEY REPRESENT ACTUAL CITIZENS WHO BUILD THEIR LIVES HERE AND PROVIDE VALUE TO THE CITY IN MANY MORE WAYS THAN JUST HOTEL TAX REVENUE? IS THIS COUNCIL HERE FOR PLANO'S NOW EXISTING TOURISM INDUSTRY OR TO BOLSTER A STRONG FAMILY-ORIENTED IMAGE. OUR CITIZENS SHOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO LIVE IN QUIET AND PEACE WITHOUT FEAR IN OUR OWN HOME. OUR CITIZENS SHOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SLEEP PEACEFULLY WITHOUT YELLING AND FIGHTING IN THE BACKYARD. AND OUR CITIZENS DESERVE TO LIVE IN THE GREAT CITY THEY BELIEVE THEY HAVE MOVED TO. PLEASE HP PLANO TO BE A CITY OF EXCELLENCE AGAIN. >> Muns: THANK YOU. >> GLEN MIDDLETON. >> I'M SORRY, I THOUGHT THAT I RETIRED FROM GIVING PRESENTATIONS AT CITY COUNCILS A LONG TIME AGO HERE, BUT I GUESS THAT I'M BACK HERE. MAYOR MUNS AND THE MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL,OOD ENIN I LIVE AT 2713 CRESTWOOD DRIVE OUT IN WEST PLANO. BEEN THERE FOR 30 YEARS, I MOVED IN 30 YEARS AGO. YOU HAVE HEARD AND YOU WILL HEAR TONIGHT FROM SOME OF MY NEIGHBORS. BUT WE ALL SHARE ONE THING IN COMMON -- WE DO NOT WANT SHORT-TERM RENTALS. THEY DISRUPT OUR QUIET NEIGHBORHOOD. I HAVE STAYED IN SHORT-TERM RENTALS IN OTHER PARTS OF THE U.S. AND THEY WORKED FINE. THE PROBLEM HERE IS THAT THEY'RE NOT WORKING FINE. YOU KNOW, THE SHORT-TERM RENTALS, THEY ALLOW SIX TO 10 PEOPLE TO STAY AT ONE LOCATION FOR A COUPLE NIGHTS -- ONE NIGHT OR A COUPLE NIGHTS -- AT A REASONABLE COST. SO WHAT'S THE PROBLEM? NOISE, THAT DISRUPTS THE NEIGHBORHOOD. SLEEP AND -- THERE YOU CAN'T GET ANY SLEEP AND TOO MANY CARS. BY THE WAY, I'M TWO DOORS DOWN FROM ONE OF THE AIRBNBs. WHAT HAS HAPPENED IN THE RENTALS ARE USED FOR OTHER PURPOSE THAN WHAT WAS INTENDED. THEY ARE PARTY HOUSES, STRICTY PARTY HOUSES. SO HOW CAN WE SOLVE THIS ISSUE? FORTUNATELY, THE ANSWER IS RIGHT IN FRONT OF US. THE EXECUTION OF THE EXISTING CITY ORDINANCE NUMBER 126212 -- 221, I'M SORRY, ARTICLE 5 -- NOISE. NOW UNFORTUNATELY PROBABLY MOST OF YOU HAVE NOT READ IT, DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT IT SAYS. AND, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF YOU HAVE HAD YOUR HEAD IN THE SANDS AND NOT EVEN THINKING ABOUT IT. AND YOU'VE LET THE ATTORNEYS MUDDY THE WATERS. SO I HAVE THE ORDINANCE IN FRONT OF ME TONIGHT AND I'LL BE ABLE TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE BIT OF EDUCATION ON IT. SO WHEREAS THERE'S A NEED TO BALANCE BUSINESS, RELIGIOUS AND CULTURAL AND SO FORTH AND HEALTH EFFECTS -- YOU KNOW, YOU HAVE DONE ALL OF THE WHEREAS -- AND THE DEPARTMENT WILL MEAN THE CITY OF PLANO DEPARTMENT DESIGNATED BY THE CITY MANAGERS TO ENFORCE THE ORDINANCE. NIGHTTIME -- OR DBA IS FROM 10:01 TO 6:00 A.M.. AND HOW MUCH IS 55 DBA? I WAS A FORMER AIR FORCE CAPTAIN, AND IAD T DO AIR FORCE STUDIES FOR NOISE FROM OUR JETS. THEY WERE 135, 150 DBA. 55 IS VERY LOW. IN FACT, I PROBABLY HAVE A METER RIGHT WITH ME HERE RIGHT NOW, IT'S ABOUT 75. HOW MUCH TIME? OH BOY OKAY. A BOX FAN -- I'LL SKIP OVER IT -- YOU CAN READ THE DEAL HERE. BUT THE WHOLE GIST OF THE DEAL IS THAT Y'ALL CAN ISSUE CITATIONS $500. AND PEOPLE -- AND IT CAN BE ISSUED TO -- AM I CUT OFF? [BUZZER] OKAY. >> Muns: I'M NOT GOING TO CUT YOU OFF. I JUST WANT YOU TO GO AHEAD AND SUMMARIZE. >> OKAY, WELL, THE SUMMARY IS THAT YOU CAN -- YOU CAN TAKE CARE OF THIS WITHOUT HAVING PROBLEMS. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS DO YOUR ORDINANCE, APPARENTLY YOU HAVE A PLAN -- THE CITY MANAGER HAS A PLAN ON HOW TO TAKE CARE OF ORDINANCE. YOU DO -- YOU DO MOTORCYCLES -- ISSUE CITATIONS TO THEM, WHY ARE YOU NOT ISSUING CITATIO TO -- WHY ARE YOU NOT ISSUING CITATIONS FOR THIS? SO, OKAY, THANK YOU. THE KEY WOULD BE TO ISSUE CITATIONS WILL TAKE CARE OF THE PARTY HOUSES. >> Muns: APPRECIATE IT. >> SHARON OVERALL. >> CIGARETTES CAUSE POLLUTION. THE AIR POLLUTION EMITTED BY CIGARETTES IS 10 TIMES GREATER THAN A DIESEL CAR EXHAUST, A SMALL ITALIAN STUDY FINDS. RESEARCHERS COMPARED THE PARTICULATE MATTER AND EXHAUST FUMES FROM A MODERN CAR ENGINE FUELED WITH LOW SULFUR DIESEL AND THEN CIGARETTE SMOKE. THREE SMOKING CIGARETTE HIS A TENFOLD INCREASE TO AIR PARTICLES COMPARED TO THE IDLING VEHICLE. AND ITALY'S NATIONAL CANCER INSTITUTE IN MILAN DID A STUDY AND WAS VERY SURPRISED BY THE BIG DIFFERENCE IN PARTICULATE M EVON AND AN EXPERT FROM U.K. WAS NOT SURPRISED AND THAT HE KNEW THAT CIGARETTES GIVE OFF A LOT MORE PARTICULATES THAN THE NEW GENERATION OF LOW SULFAR DIESELS WHICH HELP TO CUT PARTICULATE EMISSIONS. AND THE COLLEAGUES CONDUCTED A CONTROLLED EXPERIMENT IN A GARAGE IN A SMALL ALPINE TOWN IN ITALY WHERE AIR POLLUTION IS VERY LOW. IT WAS LEFT IDLING IN THE CLOSED GARAGE WITH SIX VENTS FOR 30 MINUTES, WHILE A PORTABLE ANALYZER TOOK PARTICULATE -- PARTICULATE SAMPLES EVERY TWOWOO THE CAR IDLED FOR 30 MINUTES. RESEARCHERS THEN AIRED THE GARAGE OUT FOR THREE HOURS AND THEN LIT THREE CIGARETTES ONE AFTER ANOTHER, AND LET THEM SMOLDER FOR A TOTAL OF 30 MINUTES. THEY MEASURED THE AIR POLLUTION LEVELS EVERY TWO MINUTES DURING THE TEST AND THEY ALSO MEASURED PARTICULATE MATTER FOR 90 MINUTES AFTER THE CAR ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF AND THE CIGARETTE HIS FINISHED BURNING OFF. THE CAR EXHAUST AND THE CIGARETTES WERE PLACED IN THE SAME POSITION. THE CIGARETTES PRODUCED 10 TIME IT'S -- 10 TIMES AS MUCH PAICULATE MATTER AS THE AUTO -- COMPARING THE FIRST HOUR AFTER STARTING THE ENGINE, WITH THE FIRST HOUR AFTER LIGHTING THE CIGARETTES. AND THE CIGARETTES ONLY BURNED FOR 30 MINUTES SO 30 MINUTES AFTER THE CIGARETTE BURNED IT'S STILL 10 TIMES MORE THAN THE CAR. WHILE SMOKING IS RESTRICTED FOR HEALTH REASONS IN MANY COUNTRIES, IT'S NOT ALWAYS ASSOCIATED WITH AIR POLLUTION. THINK ABOUT THIS -- THE AVERAGE SMOKER SMOKES A PACK A DAY OF 20 CIGARETTES. DIVIDE THAT NUMBER BY THREE AND YOU HAVE ROUGHLY SIX. SO FOR EVERY SMOKE WHO STOPS SMOKING, IT IS LIKE TAKING SIX 30-MINUTE CAR TRIPS OFF OF THE ROAD. WHEN YOUR NEIGHBOR SMOKES ON HIS PATIO AND THE BREEZE BLOWS IT ON TO YOUR PATIO, IT IS LIKE HANGING OUT IN A PARKING LOT NEXT TO THE EXHAUST OF AN IDLING CAR. IF YOUR NEIGHBOR WANTS TO EXPOSE THEMSELVES TO SMALL PARTICULATE MATTER. >> 20 SECONDS. >> BUT HE DOESN'T HAVE THE RIGHT TO MAKE THAT DECISION FOR YOU. HE CAN SMOKE INSIDE HIS HOUSE. THANK YOU. >> Muns: THANK YOU. >> JAMES LOCHRIDGE. >> HELLO CITY COUNCIL. GUYS, I'M BACK AGAIN. I HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING FROM ANYBODY. Y'ALL WANT TO KEEP HARASSING ME, I'M GOING TO COME AFTER YOU OKAY? I'M GOING TO GET EVERYBODY THAT I CAN GET IN THE STATE CAPITOL TO COME DOWN HERE. I HAVE A LETTER RIGHT HERE IN FRONT OF ME THAT WAS JUST SENT TO ME FROM MANY STATE REPRESENTATIVES AND SENATORS. AND IT SS VERY CLEARLY THAT THEY ARE GOING TO TAKE ACTION AGAINST THE CITIES THAT HARASS THE FARMERS AND RANCHERS. I'M SITTING HERE LISTENING TO THIS CITY COUNCIL MEETING TONIGHT. GUYS, Y'ALL HAVE BIGGER ISSUES RIGHT HERE WITH THESE PEOPLE THAN YOU DO WITH YOUR CODE COMPLIANCE OFFICERS HARASSING A FARMER AND A RANCHER. WHO CARES ABOUT WHAT I GROW? HOW CARES HOW FAR MY SETBACK IS? WHO CARES? GO PROTECT THE CITIZENS OUT THERE. GO GET THE BUMS OUT OF MY FIELDS, THE HOMELESS OUT OF MY FIELDS. DO SOMETHI OER THAN HARASS ME. PICK UP THE PHONE AND CALL ME. NOT ONE CITY COUNCILMEMBER HAS CALLED ME TO SEE WHAT THE ISSUE IS? NOR HAS THE CITY MANAGER OR JACK CARR. YOUR CODE COMPLIANCE OFFICERS HAVE JOBS TO DO AND JUST BECAUSE THEY'RE BEING ROGUE ON ME AND FORGETTING ABOUT THE REST OF THE CITIZENS AND RESIDENTS BECAUSE THEY HAVE A BASH TO PICK WITH ME ISN'T FAIR. NOW, I'M GETTING FRUSTRATED. JUNE 1st I WILL BE AT THE CAPITOL FOR A COMMITTEE MEETING ON AG AND FARMERS AND RANCHERS AND HOW THE CITIES HAVE BEEN ROGUE TO FARMERS AND RANCHERS. D GUES WHOSE CITY IS GOING TO BE AT THE TOP OF THE LIST? PLANO. I AM TIRED, GUYS, BACK A LET ME ALONE. LEAVE MY CROPS ALONE, PLEASE. THAT'S ALL I'M ASKING. STOP. FIRE CHRISTOPHER SMITH AND SCOTT LA SERE, FIRE YOUR CODE COMPLIANCE OFFICERS AND GET PEOPLE IN HERE THAT WILL DO THEIR JOB AND DO IT RIGHT. THAT'S ALL I HAVE. THANK YOU. >> THE NEXT SPEAKER IS WILLIE CLARENCE, WHO IS JOINING US VIA ZOOM. MR. CLARENCE, GO AHEAD. >> HELLO [INDISCERNIBLE]. >> YES, GO AHEAD. >> HELLO. HI, THIS IS WILLIE. I HAD A QUICK QUESTION. I'VE BEEN WORKING AT THE WALMART OVER ON [INDISCERNIBLE] BOULEVARD. [INDISCERNIBLE]. I THINK IT'S BECAUSE JOE BIDEN, HE MAKE THE PRICES TOO HIGH OR SOMETHING. BUT THEN I WATCH ANOTHER NEWS LIKE CNN AND THEY SAY OH, NO, IT'S BECAUSE OF LIKE A [INDISCERNIBLE] IS A BAD GUY WHO MAKE THE PRICE GO UP. SO I'M NOT SURE IF MAYBE YOU GUYS CAN MAKE PRICES GO UP FOR LIKE MACARONI AND CHEESE BECAUSE I CAN'T STAND THE LADIES YELLING AT ME IN THE DELI. IT'S NOT VERY NICE BECAUSE I'M TRYING TO WORK MY JOB. AND ALSO, I RENT A HOUSE IN PLANO, IT'S A SHORT-TERM PROPERTY RENTAL. I LOVE IT. I HAVE PARTIES ALL THE TIME THERE WITH MY FRIENDS AND WE PARK ALL OVER THE STREETS AND SMOKE CIGARETTES AND WE JUST LOVE IT. SO I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU FOR ALL THE PEOPLE AT PLANO THAT LETS ME DO ALL OF THESE THINGS. AND IF U WANT TO TALK TO WILLIE COME OUT TO THE BOULEVARD, COX BOULEVARD WALMART AND ORDER SOME MACARONI AND CHEESE WHEN PLANO CITY COUNCIL MAKES THE PRICES CHEAPER AND I WILL GET YOU GUYS SOME FREE MACARONI AND CHEESE. I CAN'T MAKE IT FREE, I WAS WRONG ABOUT THAT. BUT I MAKE IT CHEAPER FOR YOU GUYS IF YOU WANT TO GET IN MACARONI AND CHEESE. AND THE MAYOR IS NOT A NICE GUY, I DON'T LIKE THE MAYOR TOO MUCH. I THINK HE'S LIKE JOE BIDEN A LITTLE BIT WITH THE INFLATION. I DON'T KNOW, I DON'T KNOW. I DON'T WANT TOO MANY OF THE NEWS BECAUSE IT SCARE ME TOO MANY TIMES. BUT IF YOU GUYS DID A SONG LIKE [INDISCERNIBLE]. AND I THINK MAYBE WE CAN MAKE THE PRICES OF MACARONI AND CHEESE JUST A LITTLE BIT CHEAPER SO THAT WE CAN ALL BUY SOME OF THE MACARONI AND CHEESE. AND THEN MY SISTER MARJORIE IS LIKE WAIT, WAIT. WHY DO YOU WORK AT WALMART TOO MANY TIMES. I KNOW [INDISCERNIBLE]. AND SAYT LET ME ORDER THE MACARONI AND CHEESE AT WALMART AND I'LL BRING YOU SOME OF THE [INDISCERNIBLE] BECAUSE SOMETIMES THEY HAVE CHEAP CHICKEN MONDAY AND IT'S ALSO LIKE SIX DOLLARS AND YOU CAN GET AS MUCH CHICKEN FOR SIX DOLLARS -- >> 20 SECONDS. IS. >> YOU CAN GET LIKE FIVE PIECES OR FOUR PIECES. I CAN'T REALLY REMEMBER. BUT IF YOU COME I CAN GET YOU FOUR SIDES OF MACARONI AND CHEESE AND BROCCOLI SALAD ANDLL THE CHICKEN. I'LL GIVE IT TO EVERYBODY ON THE COUNCIL MEETING NEXT TIME, NEXT WEEK. BYE, I LOVE YOU GUYS. >> OKAY. OUR NEXT SPEAKER IS DAVE SWARTE WHO IS ALSO JOINING US VIA ZOOM. MR. SWARTEF YOU CAN TURN ON YOUR CAMERA AND MICROPHONE AND START, THANK YOU. THANK YOU. I GOOD NOW? >> YES, GO AHEAD. >> YEAH. GOOD EVENING, COUNCIL AND MAYOR. MY NAME IS DAVE. I RESIDE IN ARLINGTON, TEXAS. I'M SPEAKING TO YOU TONIGHT AS A REPRESENTATIVE OF THE TEXAS NEIGHBORHOOD COALITION. WE ARE A STAYED COALITION PROTECTING NEIGHBORHOODS FROM THE DAMAGE THAT SHORT-TERM RENTALS ULTIMATELY CAUSE. I AM AN ATTORNEY WHO WORKED FOR TWO NORTH TEXAS CORPORATIONS AND LIKE OTHER MEMBERS OF THE TEXAS NEIGHBORHOOD COALITION I'M AN UNPAID VOLUNTEER. I WILL SAY THAT OUR ORGANIZATION FULLY SUPPORTS THE COMMENTS OF THE AGGRIEVED PLANO CITIZENS YOU'VE HEARD AND FURTHERMORE SUPPORTS COUNTY FOR RELIEF. MY SUPPORT IS TWOFOLD. IT IS UNDENIABLE AND FRANKLY UNAVOIDABLE. PARTY HOUSES LATE AT NIGHT WHEN NEITHER THE POLICE NOR CODE ENFORCEMENT CAN RESPOND. AN INCREASE IN PROPERTY VALUE AND TAXES TO THE POINT WHERE LONG-TERM RESIDENTS CAN NO LONGER AFFORD TO DWELL THERE. AND LASTLY AND MOST IMPORTANTLY AND YOU'VE HEARD SOME OF THIS TONIGHT, THE DISINTEGRATION OF THE FABRIC OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD, AS NEIGHBORS WE KNOW AND TRUST ARE REPLACED BY A REVOLVING DOOR OF STRANGERS LITTLE OF WHOM HAVE GOOD INCENTIVE TO BE AGREEABLE TO NEIGHBORHOODS. MY SECOND POINT IS YOU HAVE TO BE PREPARED FOR THE LEGAL SPIN YOU WILL HEAR FROM THE SHORT-TERM RENTAL FRONT GROUPS. THEYILL CLAIM TT TEXAS DOES NOT HAVE A LEGAL AUTHORITY TO ADDRESS THE SHORT-TERM RENTAL ISSUES AT THE MUNICIPAL LEVEL. THAT CLAIM IS COMPLETELY FALSE. I WON'T BORE YOU WITH THE DETAILS. I ONLY NEED TO POINT TO THE FACT THAT HERE IN ARLINGTON WE ADOPTED THREE ORDINANCES OVER THREE YEARS AGO THAT TOTALLY BANNED SHORT-TERM RENTALS IN SINGLE-FAMILY RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS EXCEPT FOR DEFINED GEOGRAPHIC AREA NEAR COWBOY STADIUM. THEY'RE ALLOWED IN THE REST OF THE CITY, BUT NOT IN THE OTHER SINGLE-FAMILY NEIGHBORHOODS. AND I MUST TELL YOU HAVING HEARD CITIZENS FROM ALL ACROSS THE STATE AND THE COUNTRY TELL ME ABOUT THEIR EXPERIENCES WITH SHORT-TERM RENTALS YOU SHOULD MAKE NO MISTAKES. HALF MEASURES SUCH AS PERMITTING BAD BEHAVIOR ARE INEFFECTIVE. ONLY AN OUT RIGHT PROHIBITION ON SHORT-TERM RENTALS IN THE AREAS TO BE PROTECTED WORKS. NOW, AS WE EXPECTED HERE IN ARLINGTON, THE SHORT-TERM RENTAL ADVOCATES CHALLENGED US IN COURT. MR. FRANCE REFERRED TO THIS. I WAS INVOLVED IN THAT LITIGATION. I CAN TELL YOU THAT THEY LOST AT THE TRIAL COURT LEVEL AND THEN THEY LOST IN E FO WORTH COURT OF APPEALS AND ON JANUARY 28TH OF THIS YEAR THE TEXAS SUPREME COURT REFUSED TO HEAR -- >> 20 SECONDS. >> I WANT TO CONCLUDE WITH A CAUTIONARY NOTE. WAITING TO TAKE RESOLUTE ACTION HAS A STEEP PRICE. AS THE CITIES OF AUSTIN AND GRAPEVINE TO A LESSER EXTENT HAVE FOUND, ONCE SHORT-TERM RENTALS ARE ALLOWED TO OPERATE IN A CITY, IT'S GOING TO BE VERY DIFFICULT TO SHUT THEM DOWN. [NO AUDIO]. >> THE LAST SPEAKER IS IS MARK TUTTLE. >> HELLO, COUNCIL. MY NAME IS MARK TUTTLE. MY FAMILY OWNS A BUILDING HERE IN PLANO. WE HAVE FOR 30 YEARS RIGHT HERE ON 15TH STREET. I WANT TO SPEAK TO YOU ABOUT THE PUBLIC RESTROOM AT HAGGARD PARK. I DON'T KNOW IF ANYONE IS AWARE, BUT THE RED LINE THAT RUNS ON DART FROM PARKER ROAD STATION TO WESTMORELAND DOES NOT OFFER A PUBLIC RESTROOM AT ANY STOP ON THAT LINE. THE ONLY RESTROOM IS OURS AT HAGGARD PARK. IF YOU ASK ANY OF THE EMPLOYEES FOR DART, THEY REFER THEM TO 15TH STREET. WE HAVE PEOPLE COMING HERE WHO NEVER PLANNED TO COME TO 15TH STREET. HOMELESS PEOPLE, DRUG USERS, WHATEVER IT IS, WE DON'T WANT THAT. YOU KNOW, ALL I CAN SAY IS DART HAS DONE EVERYTHING TO PUSH IT ON THE CITY OF PLANO. THEY TOOK OUT ALL THEIR ELECTRICAL OUTLETS SO NOW WE HAVE PEOPLE STROLLING AROUND DOWNTOWN LOOKING FOR OUTLET TO CHARGE THEIR PHONE. THE PARK OFFERS INTERNET, SO WE OFFER THEM INTERNET, WE OFFER THEM WATER, WE OFFER THEM BOTTLE REFILLING STATION. IT'S JUST GETTING OUT OF HAND. AND THE LAST THING I'M GOING TO SAY IS THERE'S BEEN AN INCREASE IN CRIME. WE'VE HAD A SERIAL GRAFFITI ARTIST. WE'VE HAD A THREAT OF MURDER AT A COFFEE HOUSE. 'VE HAD A KNIFE ATTACK AT THE BATHROOM. IT'S JUST GETTING WORSE AND WORSE. SO I HOPE SOMEONE HERE CAN DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU. >> THERE ARE NO OTHER SPEAKERS. >> Mayor Muns: ALL RIGHT. LET'S MOVE ON TO THE CONSENT AGENDA. >> THE CONSENT AGENDA WILL BE ACTED UPON IN ONE MOTION AND CONTAINS ITEMS WHICH ARE ROUTINE AND TYPICALLY NON-CONTROVERSIAL.

AT A FUTURE MEETING. >> IT'S THE JUNE MEETING WE ARE GOING TO -- THIS WILL BE ON THE AGENDA. >> SO WE'LL GO OVER THE LEGAL ADVICE IN EXECUTIVE SESSION WHEN THAT ITEM IS ON THE AGENDA. >> FAKE RESPONSIVENESS, THANK YOU -- FANTASTIC RESPONSIVENESS, THANK YOU. >> ITEM C. >> Mayor Muns: ITEM C. >> RFB NUMBER 2022-0396-B FOR ARTERIAL OVERLAY REPAIR LEGACY DRIVE TO CUSTER DRIVE, CUSTER ROAD TO U.S. 75, PROJECT NUMBER 7431, FOR THE PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT TO AUSTIN BRIDGE AND ROAD LP IN THE AMOUNT OF $1,272,973 AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE ALL NECESSARY DOCUMENTS. >> THANK YOU.

I'M RON SMITH, THE PARKS AND RECREATION DIRECTOR. I'M JOINED TONIGHT BY DR. SEUSSCY HERGERMERA, WHO IS OUR RECREATI SERVICES MANAGER. >> Mayor Muns: THANK YOU. COUNCILMAN RICCIARDELLI, COUNCILMAN WILLIAMS, DO YOU HAVE ANY COMMENTS? >> CERTAINLY. SO I THINK WE HAD ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS AND I BELIEVE THE STAFF RECOMMENDATION FOR HOW TO GET THOSE ANSWERED WAS AFTER THIS MEETING PRIOR TO THE NEXT MEETING TO MAKE SURE THAT WE DON'T DISCUSS ANYTHING IN PUBLIC THAT WE SHOULD NOT DISCUSS IN PUBLIC. SO WITH THAT I WILL MAKE A MOTION TO TABLE THIS ITEM. UNTIL THE NEXT MEETING. >> Mayor Muns: I HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND TO TABLE ITEM L UNTIL THE JUNE 9TH -- UNTIL THE NEXT -- JUNE 13TH, EXCUSE ME, MEETING.

[APPLAUSE]. NEXT ITEM. >> ITEM NUMBER 2, CONSIDERATION OF A RESOLUTION TO APPOINT PAUL FRANCIS McNULLITY AS THE CHIEF JUDGE OF THE MUNICIPAL COURT OF THE CITY OF PLANO, TEXAS, SETTING THE TERM OF OFFICE AND COMPENSATION FOR THE JUDGE AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. >> Mayor Muns: MARK. >> AFTER DISCUSSION, THE COUNCIL CAME TO AGREEMENT ON A SELECTION WHICH IS JUDGE PAUL MCNULTY. WE HAVE EXTENDED AN OFFER TO JUDGE MCNULTY. HE HAS ACCEPTED THAT, SO THIS WOULD ACTUALLY BE THE FORMAL ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND APPROVAL OF THAT HIRE TO MAKE PAUL MCNULTY THE CHIEF JUDGE, CHIEF MUNICIPAL JUDGE MUNICIPAL COURTS.NO >> MR. MAYOR, BEING A CURRENTLY PRACTICING CRIMINAL LAWYER, I HAVE RECUSED MYSELF FROM THE SELECTION AND THE INTERVIEW PROCESS THROUGHOUT THIS ENTIRE PROCEEDING. AND LOGICALLY I HAVE TO RECUSE MYSELF AT THIS TIME. >> MAILBOX WE DO HAVE ONE SPEAKER ON ZOOM -- >> MAYOR, WE DO HAVE ONE SPEAKER ON ZOOM. >> Mayor Muns: OKAY. >> JAMARA OSBORNE. >> HELLO, CAN YOU HEAR ME? >> WE CAN. WE'LL NEED YOU TO PUT A CAMERA ON AS WELL. THANK YOU. GO AHEAD. >> MY NAME IS JAMARAS ON BORNE. I VE IN DALLAS, HOWEVER, I SOMETIMES WORK IN PLANO AND SPEND A LOT OF TIME. I'VE HAD A CITATION IN PLANO IN 2019. I [INDISCERNIBLE]. PAUL MCNULTY, HIS JUSTIFICATION WAS THAT THE PANDEMIC JUSTIFIED -- THAT THE PANDEMIC JUSTIFIED A DELAY IN THE TRIAL, HOWEVER, THE LAW ACTUALLY SAYS THAT UNLESS IT IS A SERIOUS CRIME, IT SHOULD BE DISMISSED. SO THE PANDEMIC IS NOT [INDISCERNIBLE]. HE DENIED SEVERAL MOTIONS TO DISMISS EVEN THOUGH THE CHARGE AGAINST -- [INDISCERNIBLE]. HE SCHEDULED UNNECESSARY HEARINGS. HE HAD ME TAKE TIME OFF WORK, DRIVE ALL THE WAY TO PLANO AND THEN HE REFUSED TO ENTERTAIN MY MOTION. [INDISCERNIBLE] AND HE LIED ANSAID THAT THE REASON HE DIDN'T RULE ON THE PENDING MOTIONS WAS BECAUSE THE MOTION TO DISMISS, HOWEVER, THERE WERE 45 DAYS IN BETWEEN THE HEARING AND THE TIME THAT I FILED THE MOTION TO DISMISS. SO HE HAD PLENTY OF TIME AND WAS USING THAT AS AN EXCUSE. HE FORCE ME TO PAY AN APPEAL BOND TO COLLIN COUNTY EVEN THOUGH THE LAW SAYS IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE PAYABLE TO THE STATE OF TEXAS. AND SO HE BASICALLY BOTCHED MY APPEAL AND THERE WAS NO WAY FOR ME TO GET AROUND IT WITHOUT PAYING COLLIN COUNTY EVEN THOUGH THE LAW REQUIRES IT TO BE PAID TO THE STATE OF TEXAS. [INDISCERNIBLE]. IS A BULLY PULPIT AND PUTTING HIM IN POSITION AS CHIEF JUDGE IS [INDISCERNIBLE], I WILL PREDICT THAT THERE WILL BE LAWSUITS AGAINST THE CITY OF PLANO AND POSSIBLY COLLIN COUNTY IF YOU PUT HIM IN THAT POSITION. THIS MAN NEEDS TO BE TURNED IN, SOMEBODY NEEDS TO CHECK ON IN. SOMEBODY NEEDS TO REVIEW HIM AND SEE WHAT'S GOING ON IN HIS COURTROOM. HE'S OUT OFONTROL. HE'S A NARCISSIST, ARROGANT, RUDE BELLIGERENT. HE'S POWER HUNGRY. HE THINKS THAT HIS WORD IS THE RULE OF LAW AND NOT THE LAW ITSELF S I WILL BE FILING A COMPLAINT WITH THE COMMISSION ON JUDICIAL CONDUCT, BUT AT THIS POINT [INDISCERNIBLE]. >> 20 SECONDS. >> HE'S ALREADY BEEN BLOCKING MY APPEAL SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT HE'S GOING TO DO. MAYBE HE'LL RAISE THE BOND. [INDISRNIBLE]. THAT'S WHAT HE'S DONE THUGHO THI ENTIRE PROBLEM. THIS MAN SHOULDN'T BE IN THE POSITION HE'S IN MUCH LESS GIVEN A PROMOTION. [BUZZER]. I'M DONE. >> Mayor Muns: THANK YOU. ITEM 2 IS WHERE WE ARE. >> MOTION TO APPROVE. >> SECOND. >> Mayor Muns: I HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND TO APPROVE THE RESOLUTION TO APPOINT PAUL FRANCIS MCNUL AS THE CHIEF JUDGE OF THE MUNICIPAL COURT OF THE CITY OF PLANO. PLEASE VOTE. >> RICK GRADY VOTES IN FAVOR. >> Mayor Muns: THANK YOU, RICK. MOTION PASSES 7-0. [APPLAUSE]. >> [INAUDIBLE - NO MIC]. >> LET ME HAVE YOUR PREDECESSOR UP FIRST. COME ON UP, JUDGE STEVENSON. WE HAVE -- OH, EXCUSE ME. AND YOUR FAMILY. PLEASE COME UP. IT'S AN HONOR TO READ THE PROCLAMATION THAT THE CITY OF PLANO HAS BESTOWED UPON YOU JUDGE. AND IT'S MY PLEASURE TO READ THIS PROCLAMATION. IT'S VERY LONG, JUDGE. LOOK AT THAT, IT'S ON TWO PAGES. SO IF YOU DON'T MIND, I'M GOING TO SUMMARIZE YOUR LIFE FOR YOU. [LAUGHTER]. NO, I WILL INCLUDE ALL THE GOOD DETAILS. WHEREAS IN 1966 JUDGE STEVENSON GRADUATED FROM WHAT IS NOW UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT ARLINGTON.

WHEREAS JUDGE STEVENSON SERVED IN VIETNAM FROM 1967 THROUGH 1969, ATTAINING THE RANK OF CAPTAIN IN 1968, THE DISTINGUISHED FLYING CROSS, BRONZE STAR AND PURPLE HEART ARE JUST A FEW OF THE MANY AWARDS AND DECLARATIONS JUDGE STEVENSON RECEIVED FOR THE STELLAR MILITARY SERVICE BEFORE RETIRING IN 1972. JUDGE STEVENSON'S EXPOSURE TO LEGAL ISSUES WHILE SERVING AS AN ASSISTANT DEFENSE COUNSEL WHEN HE WAS STATIONED ATORT CAMPBELL INSPIRED HIS LIFELONG PASSION FOR THE LAW THAT CULMINATED WITH HIM GRADUATING FROM SOUTHERN METHODIST UNIVERSITY DEAD MAN'S SCHOOL OF LAW IN '73. HIS LEGAL CAREER INCLUDES PRIVATE PRACTICE, AS WELL AS BEING A MAGISTRATE, A MUNICIPAL COURT IN DALLAS, TARRANT AND COLLIN COUNTIES.

WHILE SERVING AS CHIEF JUDGE, THE CITY'S POPULATION INCREASED OVER 50% TO 289,000 IN 2022. UNDER HIS LEADERSHIP, 1.9 MILLION CLASS C MISDEMEANOR CASES WERE HANDLED BY THE COURT ALONG WITH COUNTLESS PROPERTY HEARINGS, PROTECTIVE ORDERS, ARRAIGNMENTS IN JAIL AND REVIEW OF PROBABLE CAUSE AFFIDAVITS FOR SUMMONS, SEARCH WARRANTS AND ARREST OV 500ECRUS WERE SWORN IN AS PLANO POLICE OFFICERS WITH JUDGE STEVENSON IMPLEMENTING THE PRACTICE OF HONORING EACH ONE WITH THE SILVER DOLLAR.

JUDGE STEVENSON'S LOVE OF COUNTRY AND DEDICATION TO DUTY IS COMMENDABLE AND THE WAY HE CONDUCTS HIMSELF IN AND OUT OF THE COURTROOM SERVES AS AN OUTSTANDING EXAMPLE FOR US ALL.

I'LL LET YOU HOLD THAT AND WE'LL TAKE A PICTURE AND THEN JUDGE, I'LL HOLD THESE AND LET YOU SAY A FEW WORDS. GO AHEAD AND HOLD THEM UP WHILE WE TAKE A PICTURE.

PLEASE VOTE. >> RICK GRADY VOTES IN FAVOR OF TABLING. >> Mayor Muns: THANK YOU, COUNCILMAN GRADY. MOTION PASSES 8-O. NEXT ITEM. >> ITEM NUMBER 6, PUBLIC HEARING AND CONSIDERATION OF AN ORDINANCE AS REQUESTED IN ZONING CASE 2022-004 TO AMEND ARTICLE 14, ALLOWED USES AND USE CLASSIFICATIONS, ARTICLE 15, USE-SPECIFIC REGULATIONS, AND RELATED SECTIONS OF THE COMPREHENSIVE ZONING ORDINANCE OF THE CITY, ORDINANCE NUMBER 2015-5-2 AS HERETOFORE AMENDED, PERTAINING TO TATTOOING AND PERMANENT OR INTRA DERMAL COSMETICS AND RELATED LAND USES IN THE DOWNTOWN BUSINESS GOVERNMENT ZONING DISTRICT AND PROVIDING A PENALTY CLAUSE, A REPEALER CLAUSE, A SAVING CLAUSE, A SEVERABILITY CLAUSE, A PUBLICATION CLAUSE AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE. >> ALL RIGHT. ZONING CASE 2022-004 IS A TEXT AMENDMENT TO THE ZONING ORDINANCE AND IT DOES RELATE TO MODIFYING SPECIFIC USES IN THE DOWNTOWN BUSINESS GOVERNMENT ZONING DISTRICT. SO THIS CASE WAS INITIATED BACK IN FEBRUARY BASED ON THE REQUEST OF A BUSINESS OWNER OR A POTENTIAL BUSINESS. THEY CAME BEFORE THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION DURING THE COMMENTS OF PUBLIC INTEREST SECTION, BASED ON THAT. AT THE NEXT MTING, THE SECOND MEETING IN FEBRUARY, THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION DIRECTED STAFF TO CONSIDER A TEXT AMENDMENT BASED ON THEIR INTEREST IN OPENING A BUSINESS IN DOWNTOWN PLANO. SO STAFF BROUGHT BACK A DISCUSSION ITEM ON MARCH THE 21st AND A PUBLIC HEARING WAS CALLED. THEN ON APRIL 18th THE DISCUSSION OF DRAFT STANDARDS WAS HELD AND THEN ON MAY 2nd A PUBLIC HEARING WAS CONSIDERED BY THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION AND CONSIDERATIONS OF THE RECOMMENDED STANDARDS WERE ADOPTED AND FORWARDED TO THE CITY COUNCIL. SO TATTOOING AND PERMANENT COSMETICS IS A SINGULAR USE WITHIN THE ZONING ORDINANCE, BUT THERE'S ALSO A RELATED USE OF BODY PIERCING. MANY TIMES THOSE USES GO TOGETHER IN A SINGLE BUSINESS, SO WE THOUGHT IT WAS IMPORTANT TO CONSIDER THOSE SIMILARLY WITHIN THIS ITEM. CURRENTLY THOSE ARE ALLOWED AS AN ACCESSORY USE TO A PERSONAL SERVICE SHOP, SO ANYPLACE A PERSONAL SERVICE SH IS PERMITTED YOU CAN HAVE AN ACCESSORY USE OF TATTOOING AND PERMANENT COSMETICS. HOWEVER, THERE ARE ONLY FIVE ZONING DISTRICTS OUT OF OUR 15 NONRESIDENTIAL ZONING DISTRICTS WHERE TATTOOING AND PERMANENT COSMETICS AND BODY PIERCING ARE ALLOWED AS PRIMARY USE AND THOSE ARE RETAIL, CORRIDOR COMMERCIAL, LIGHT COMMERCIAL AND THEN OUR TWO LIGHT INDUSTRIAL DISTRICTS. WE ALSO LOOKED AT SOME SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES AND REALLY HOW THEY RELATE TO THEIR DOWNWN AAS WH REGARD TO THESE USES. SOME OF THEM HAVE ALLOWED THIS USE WITH AN SUP IN THEIR DOWNTOWN AREA. OTHERS DID NOT PERMIT THE USE AT ALL. SO WHEN IT COMES TO THE EXISTING REGULATIONS, THERE ARE ALSO DISTANCE STANDARDS THAT ARE UTILIZED CURRENTLY IN THE CITY. AND SO WHEN WE PERMIT TATTOOING AND PERMANENT COSMETICS THERE IS A PARATION FROM RELIGIOUS FACILITIES RESIDENTIALLY ZONED DISTRICTS AND EITHER PUBIC OR PAROCHIAL SCHOOLS. SO WE'RE LOOKING AT A THOUSAND FOOT SETBACK, BUT COUNCIL COULD REDUCE THAT DISTANCE TO 300 FEET. SO IN CONSIDERING THE BUSINESS GOVERNMENT DISTRICT WE APPLIED THAT OTHER STANDARD. WE USED OUR GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM TO APPLY THOSE TYPE OF SETBACKS. WHEN WE APPLIED 1,000-FOOT SETBACK BASED ON THOSE USES, IT WIPED OUT THE ENTIRE DISTRICT, SO THAT REALLY WASN'T PRACTICAL. IF WE WERE GOING TO ALLOW IT AT ALL WITHIN THE DISTRICT. SO WE REDUCED IT TO 300 FEET AND WE CAME DOWN TO AN AREA THAT WAS VERY SIMILAR TO THE HERITAGE DISTRICT. AND SO WE STARTED DISCUSSING, WELL, DO WE WANT TO DO A USE BASED SETBACK OR WOULD IT MAKE MORE SENSE AND BE A MORE PRAGMATIC APPLICATION TO JUST LOOK AT THE HERITAGE DISTRICT. SO THIS IS HD26, WHICH ARE THE BOUNDARIES OF THE DOWNTOWN HERITAGE DISTRT. IT'S JUST OVER FIVE ACRES, 5.4 ACRES IN THE DOWNTOWN AREA. AND IS CLEARLY A VERY LIMITED AREA WITH FRONTAGE ON 15TH STREET, K AVENUE AND J OR REALLY THE DART LINE DEPENDING UPON YOUROUROUROUROURU SO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION ENDED UP RECOMMENDING THE FOLLOWING& AS A SUMMARY: THAT TATTOOING AND PERMANENT COSMETICS AND/OR BODY PIERCING MAY BE PERMITTED BY A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT AS A PRIMARY E WITHIN THE DOWNTOWN BUSINESS GOVERNMENT DISTRICT. AND THEN THAT TWO SUCH USES WOULD BE ALLOWED BY RIGHT WITHIN THE DOWNTOWN HISTORIC DISTRICT. AND -- BUT ANYTHING IN EXCESS OF THAT WOULD REQUIRE A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT. SO WE LOOKED AT CONFORMANCE WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, IS THIS REQUEST CONFORMING WITH THE GUIDE IS PRINC PRINCIPLES. THE COMMISSION FELT THAT IT WAS, ALSO WITH THE LAND USE POLICY AND TWO RELATED LAND USE ACTIONS THAT TALK SPECIFICALLY ABOUT EVALUATING THE ZONING ORDINANCE TO MAKE APPROPRIATE AMENDMENTS RELATED TO THE COMP PLAN AND CREATING REGULATIONS THAT INCENTIVIZE REDEVELOPMENT AND REVITALIZATION OF UNDERPERFORMING RETAIL AND MULTI-FAMILY DEVELOPMENT. SO WITH REGARD TO RESPONSES, NONE OF THEM WERE ON OUR ONLINE MAP AND NONE HAD ADDRESSES SO WE COULD NOT MAP THEM FOR YOU. ALSO IT WAS DIFFICULT TO APPLY PROPERTIES BASED STANDARDS TO GET A UNIQUE COUNT OF PROPERTIES. SO WE'VE JUST GIVEN YOU THE RAW NUMBERS OF THE RESPONSES WE RECEIVED. WE RECEIVED 32 LETTERS IN SUPPORT, ONE IN OPPOSITION FOR A TOTAL OF 33 RESPONSES. >> SO THIS IS THE SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDATIONS. THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION DID VOTE 7-0 TO RECOMMEND THIS TO YOU. AND THEY DID RECEIVE THREE SPEAKER CARDS IN SUPPORT AT THE MEETING AND THEY HAD ONE EMAIL IN OPPOSITION. THE REST OF LETTERS IN SUPPORT HAVE COME IN BETWEEN P AND Z AND COUNCIL. SO WITH THAT I'M AVAILABLE FOR QUESTIONS THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE. >> EXCUSE ME, MAYOR PRO TEM? >> SO OUT OF CURIOSITY, SINCE THERE'S SEVERAL AREAS RIGHT NEXT TO THIS THAT WOULD BE MULTI-FAMILY WITH RESIDENTS LIVING NEXT TO THEM, W DON WE CONSIDER THOSE MULTI-FAMILY AS RESIDENTIAL THAT WOULD NEED 300 FEET AWAY? >> BECAUSE IT'S BASED ON A RESIDENTIALLY ZONED DIST DISTRICT. THAT'S THE STANDARD. SO WE USE THE STANDARD THAT WOULD BE USED ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE CITY. AND THE BUSINESS GOVERNMENT DISTRICT IS NOT A ZONING DISTRICT IN THE ZONING ORDINANCE SO WE JUST USED OTHER RESIDENTIAL DISTRICTS. >> OKAY. SINCE THIS AREA THAT YOU'VE DEFINED, THIS HD26, IS VERY AND ZONING RECOMMENDED TWOG ESTABLISHMENTS BE ALLOWED. WOULD THERE BE ANY ISSUE WITH US LIMITING IT TO JUST ONE? SINCE IT'S A VERY SMALL AREA? >> THAT WOULD BE AT THE COUNCIL'S DISCUSSION. I THINK THE DISCUSSION AT P AND Z WAS ALLOWING A LITTLE COMPETITION SO THAT'S MY RECOLLECTION OF THEIR DISCUSSION. >> DEPUTY MAYOR? SORRY, YOU BOTH HAD YOUR HAND UP. >> YOU HAD YOUR HAND UP FIRST. >> SO CHRISTINE, I UNDERSTAND THAT CURRENTLY THE PROPOSAL IS TWO TATTOO SHOPS BY RIGHT. SO CAN YOU SHORT OF EXPLAIN WHAT THAT MEANS BY RIGHT? SO THEY DON'T HAVE TO COME BACK? THEY DON'T HAVE TO ASK FOR PERMISSION? SO ESTABLISH A TATTOO SHOP? IS THAT WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT? >> THEY WOULD NEED TO ACHIEVE A CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY FROM THE BUILDING INSPECTIONS DEPARTMENT. THEY WOULD STILL HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE NORMAL PEITTING PCESE E WOULDN'T BE A ZONING PROCESS. THEY WOULD HAVE TO COME THROUGH AND GET A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT FOR ANYTHING BEYOND THE TWO THAT WOULD BE ALLOWED BY RIGHT. >> ARE THERE SPECIFIC CODE OR POLICY THAT'S GOING TO BE IN PLACE FOR THESE TWO COMPETING TATTOO SHOPS TO MAKE SURE THAT IT IS GOING TO MAINTAIN OUR PNO CITY OF EXCELLENCE HAVING THE SHOPS THERE? >> IT WOULD BE THE EXISTING BUILDING CODE AND THE EXISTING HEALTH CODE AS WELL AS THE REGULATIONS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS. WE WOULD HAVE THE STANDARDS THAT EXIST TODAY FOR THE ACCESSORY USES WITHIN THE CITY. >> COUNCIL MEMBER WILLIAMS. >> THANK YOU, MAYOR AND THANK YOU, CHRISTINA. I UNDERSTAND WANTING TO BE ABLE TO PROMOTE COMPETITION BUT CAN YOU TELL ME WHY IT WAS PROPEDHAT THEY BE ALLOWED BY RIGHT? SO LET'S SAY YOU'VE GOT TWO SET UP BY RIGHT AND THEN ONE GOES OUT OF BUSINESS, WHATEVER, IS THE ABILITY TO HAVE THAT SECOND ONE JUST FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE? WHOEVER IS FIRST TO THE PUNCH? >> THAT'S CORRECT. >> WHAT WOULD BE THE REASONING FOR THAT? >> THE REASONING FOR THAT, WE'VE GOT AN ACTIVE INTERESTED PARTY WHO WANTS TO COME THROUGH. IT WOULD MEAN THAT THEY WOULDN'T HAVE TO COME THROUGH A SECONDARY ZONING PROCESS? THEY'VE BEEN WAITING SINCE FEBRUARYOSSENTIALLY WITH THE LEASE PENDING. SO IF WE DID NOT ALLOW BY RIGHT WHAT THAT MEANS IS THEY WOULD HAVE TO SUBMIT A ZONING CASE, THEY WOULD HAVE TO PREPARE ALL THE DOCUMENTS AND GO THROUGH A ZONING PROCESS FROM THIS POINT FORWARD. >> OKAY. SO I UNDERSTAND THAT THEY'VE BEEN ON THE HOOK SINCE FEBRUARY. WOULD THERE BE ANYTHING STANDING IN THE WAY OF STIPULATING THAT WE'LL ALLOW ONE RIGHT NOW BY RIGHT. BASICALLY TIME LIMITED. LIKE THIS ONE SETUP AND THEN ANY FUTURE ESTABLISHMENTS IN THE FUTURE WOULD REQUIRE AN SUP. >> WE COULD REDUCE TO A SINGLE TATTOOING AND PERMANENT COSMETICS USE. I'M NOT AWARE OF TIME LIMITED OUTSIDE OF ONE SPECIFIC INCIDENT THAT WE HAD RECENTLY WITH THE MONTESSORI SCHOOL, I DON'T BELIEVE IN THE ZONING ORDINANCE WE HAVE ANY TIME LIMITED BUT. >> TO BE CLEAR WHEN WE SAY TIME LIMITED, WE MEAN THIS ONE TIME ONLY. IF THAT ESTABLISHMENT CHOOSES TO RELOCATE OR GOES OUT OF BUSINESS, THE IT'S NOT FIRST TO THE PUNCH, IT'S ANYBODY IN THE FUTURE WHO GOES THROUGH THE SUP PROCESS WHO HAS NOT ALREADY BEEN ON THE HOOK SINCE FEBRUARY? >> AND QUESTION DO NOT HAVE, LET ME SAY BUSINES SPECIFIC SUP'S. WE HAVEN'T DONE THAT PROBABLY SINCE AT LEAST -- MAYBE SINCE THE 1980s. >> OKAY. BECAUSE I WANT TO BE FAIR BUT I'M NOT THINKING IN PERPETUITY IN BY RIGHT WHOEVER CAN PUT THEIR SIGN UP THE FASTEST. >> Mayor Muns: COUNCIL MEMBER HOLMER. >> I WANT TO RESPOND TO SOME OF THE COMMENTS THAT WERE ALREADY MADE. I DO BELIEVE IT'S TRUE THAT COMPETITION IS GOOD FOR THE INDUSTRY. SO I THINK IT IS A GOOD TIME TO HAVE TWO DOWN THERE. I'VE BEEN VERY INVESTED IN DOWNTOWN PLANO. I OWNED AN RESTAURANT DOWN THERE. I SERVED ON THE DOWNTOWN PLANO ASSOCIATION FOR 10 YEARS. DOWNTOWN PLANO IS VERY UNIQUE. WE ARE A LOT OF BUILDINGS OWNED BY A LOT OF DIFRENT PEOPLE, UNLIKE LEGACY WEST, SHOPS OF LEGACY THAT ARE OWNED BY ONE CONGLOMERATE AND THEY CAN CONTROL HOW MANY BUSINESSES OR RESTAURANTS OR THEY CAN DO MORE TO HELP THEIR TENANTS BE SUCCESSFUL.& I APPRECIATE THE FACT THAT THAT'S BEEN TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION. I THINK WE ALSO NEED TO POINT OUT THE FACT THAT I'M VERY PROUD THAT WE DO HAVE AN HISTORIC DOWNTOWN PLANO ARTS DISTRICT AND TATTOOING IS AN ART. AND IT IS VERY MAINSTREAM. IT'S NOT -- I KNOW THERE WAS A TIME WHEN MAYBE THAWAS SOMETHING THAT NOT EVERYBODY WOULD PARTAKE IN, BUT IT'S ACTUALLY VERY MAINSTREAM N NOW. I HAVE KNOWN APPLICANTS WHO GO DOWN AND TALK TO EVERY RESIDENT OUT THERE, LANDOWNER AND TO YOUR POINT ONLY ONE PERSON HAS BEEN IN OPPOSITION. AS A FORMER MERCHANT DOWNTOWN I KNOW THAT TATTOO PARLORS ARE A DESTINATION LOCATION. PEOPLE WILL COME TO DOWNTOWN PLANO FOR THAT REASON AND THEN SPEND MON FOR OPPING AND DINING. I KNOW THE MERCHANTS ARE THRILLED TO HAVE THAT OPPORTUNITY. I THINK THAT I WHOLE HEARTED BY SUPPORT THE ZONING REQUEST. I THINK THIS IS SOMETHING GOOD FOR DOWNTOWN PLANO, GOOD FOR OUR ARTS DISTRICT AND ASSUMING NO ONE ELSE HAS ANY OTHER COMMENTS THEY'D LIKE TO MAKE, I'D LIKE TO -- >> I COULD OPEN -- IT'S A PUBLIC HEARING. SO JUST GIVE ME A SECOND. >> AS A SMALL BUSINESS OWNER I'M ALL FOR WHATEVER WE CAN DO AS A CITY GOVERNMNT TO MAKE THINGS LESS HASSLE FOR BUSINESSES TO OPEN BUSINESS. AND I THINK THE ARGUMENTS BY RIGHT OR NOT BY RIGHT ARE GOOD. IN THIS CASE WE'RE ONLY TALKING ABOUT TWO AND IN A DISTRICT AS COUNCIL PERSON HOLMER MENTIONED I THINK WOULD BE A GOOD FIT AND I WOULD SAY THAT THE BY RIGHT WOULD BE SOMETHING I WOULD BE IN FAVOR OF SIMPLY BECAUSE IT'S LESS HASSLE AS YOU WERE SAYING, OTHERWISE IF SOMEONE COMES IN AND WANTS TO DO IT TMSELS T CREATE COMPETITION, THEY HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE EXPENSE AND TIME OF THE WHOLE ZONING PROCESS AGAIN. SO I THINK WE'RE ON THE RIGHT TRACK HERE, BUT LET ME SEE IF THERE'S ANY OTHER COMMENTS. >> Mayor Muns: LET'S GET TO THE PUBLIC HEARING. WE HAVEN'T OPENED YET. [POUNDING OF GAVEL] NOW WE'RE OPEN. HOLD ON. LET ME HEAR FROM THE APPLICANT. DO THEY WANT TO SPEAK? >> WE HAVE A SPEAKER. JENNIFER BAILEY. >> May Muns: THANK YOU. WE'LL GET TO THE COMMENTS, I PROMISE YOU. >> GOOD EVENING MAYOR MUNS AND MEMBERS OF THE COUNCIL. FIRST AND FOREMOST WE UNDERSTAND IT'S GETTING LATE TAKING TIME AWAY FROM YOUR FAMILIES AND LOVED ONES TO CONSIDER THIS ITEM. MY NAME IS JENNIFER BAILEY AND THIS IS MY BUSINESS PARTNER PATRICK CARMAC. WE WOULD LIKE TO EXPRESS OUR SUPPORT FOR CHANGING THE ZONING ORDINANCE PROHIBITING TATTOO AND PERMANENT COSMETIC BUSINESSES FROM INHE DOWNTOWN HERITAGE USE DISTRICT. PATRICK HAS BEEN A PROFESSIONAL TATTOO ARTIST FOR 20 YEARS AND OWNED TWO SUCCESSFUL SHOPS. I HAVE A BACKGROUND IN LUXURY RETAIL AND HAVE RUN MANY SUCCESSFUL HIGH END RETAIL STORES. WE WOULD LIKE TO OPEN AN UPSCALE TATTOO AND PERMANENT COSMETICS STUDIO AT 2814 K AVENUE. THIS PARTICULAR SPACE AS YOU MAY OR MAY NOT KNOW HAS BEEN VACANT FOR SEVERAL YEARS. WE HAVE PLANS TO TURN THE SPACE INTO A HIGH END BOUTIQUE STYLE ENVIRONMENT THAT COMPLEMENTS THE SURROUNDING BUSINESSES AS WELL AS TO ESTABLISH THE AREA AS AN AS DISTRICT. OTHER PLANS INCLUDE RESTORING MANY HISTORICALMENTS OF THE BUILDING'S INTERIOR. WE KNOW THERE WAS PROBABLY REASON FOR THIS ORDINANCE, BUT TIMES HAVE CHANGED SIGNIFICANTLY. TATTOOING, BODY PIERCING AND PERMANENT COSMETICS HAVE BECOME FAR MORE MAINSTREAM AND ACCEPTABLE AND HIGHLY REGULATED BY THE TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH. ACCORDING TO A 2019 POLL 39% OF AMERICANS HAD AT LEAST ONE TATTOO, UP FROM 13% IN 2012. TATTOOING AND BODY PIERCING HAVE A COMBINED ESTIMATED ANNUAL REVENUE OF $2.3 BILLION AND A 10% PROJECTED ANNUAL GROWTH RATE. CHANGING THIS ORDINANCE WOULD ALLOW A PIECE OF THAT AVENUE TO STAY IN PLANO INSTEAD OF GOING TO DALLAS, FORT WORTH OR ANY OF THE SURROUNDING SUBURBS THAT DO NOT HAVE THE RESTRICTIONS ON TATTOOING AND PIERCING RELATED BUSINESSES. WE WOULD ALSO LIKE TO INFORM THE COUNCIL THAT MANY OF THE DOWNTOWN MERCHANTS AND LANDLORDS HAVE SIGNED LETTERS IN SUPPORT OF CHANGING THIS ORDINANCE, COPIES OF WHICH ARE ENCLOSED IN YOUR PACKET. THEY ARE ALL ALIGNED WITH R PLANS, FEEL TT OUR BUSINESS WOULD INCREASE FOOT TRAFFIC AND REVENUE IN THE DOWNTOWN DISTRICT AND THAT THE ORDINACE IS OUTDATED AND NO LONGER REFLECT THE CURRENT CULTURE. THANK YOU. >> NO OTHER SPEAKERS. >> Mayor Muns: DEPUTY MAYOR, WOULD YOU LIKE TO SAY SOMETHING? >> Tu: YES, I DO. DYING HERE. [LAUGHTER]. I THINK OTHER THAN ON BY RIGHT OF HAVING TWO TATTOO SHOPS IS A GOOD IDEA, NOT ONLY TO PROMOTE COMPETITION BUT TO RESPOND TO COUNCILMAN WILLIAMS' CONCERNS ABOUT HAVING THESE ONE AT A TIME SPECIAL USE. I THINK THAT WOULD REALLY DAMPEN THE INTEREST IN RETAIL OR THE BUSINESS ULTIMATELY SELLING IT TO SOMEBODY ELSE. I THINK THAT WOULD BE A DISASTER IF EVERY TIME WHEN THEY WANT TO TRANSFER THE TITLE OR TRANSFER THE SHOP TO SOMEONE THAT THEY HAVE TO COME BACK AND TRY TO GET A SPECIAL USE. I THINK THAT WOULD BE AN ISSUE THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO DEAL WITH IN TERMS OF HOW MUCH VALUE THEY CAN PUT ON THAT SPECIFIC SHOP. SO ANYWAY, WITH THAT SAID -- >> Mayor Muns: HOLD ON. >> Tu: I'M NOT GOING TO MAKE A MOTION. >> Mayor Muns: IT'S OKAY. I NEED TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING. [POUNDING OF GAVEL]. >> Tu: I CAN MAKE A MOTION, MOTION TO APPROVE THE CURRENT -- THE PROPOSED ORDINANCE TO SPECIAL USE PERMIT. >> AND SECOND. >> Mayor Muns: >> A QUESTION BASED ON WHAT DEPUTY MAYOR TU SAID. ARE THEY TIED TO THE PROPERTY OR TO THE BUSINESS? >> THEY'RE TIED TO THE PROPERTY. >> SO TRANSFER OF THE BUSINESS WOULDN'T HAVE ANY EFFECT ON THE SUP, CORRECT? IF A NEW BUSINESS OWNER OCCUPIED THE SAME PROPERTY AND WANTED TO DO THE SAME THING? >> THAT'S RIGHT, AS LONG AS THEY'RE IN THE SAME LOCATION. YOU JUST CAN'T HAVE YOU MOVE YOUR LOCATION OF YOUR BUSINESS AND HAVE IT TRANSFER WITH YOU. >> SO AN SUP WOULDN'T AFFECT SO THAT BEING SAID IS THERE ANY WAY THAT WE CAN AMEND THIS TO REQUIRE AN SUP, BUT SIMULTANEOUSLY GRANT AN SUP TO THE APPLICANT RIGHT NOW? OR DOES THAT HAVE TO KICK THEM ALL THROUGH THE PROCESS AGAIN? >> NO, BECAUSE IT'S NOT CONSISTENT WITH THE ZONING REGULATIONS. >> MAYOR PRO TEM. >> Tu: I'M IN SUPPORT OF GRANTING BY RIGHT ONE TATTOOING PLACE IN THIS DISTRICT, BUT I'M NOT IN SUPPORT OF ALLOWING TWO. I THINK IT'S TOO SMALL OF AN AREA. >> Mayor Muns: COUNCILMAN RICCIARDELLI. >> Ricciardelli: I'LL PUT MY THOUGHTS IN. I WOULD ALSO PREFER TO AMEND THIS TO ONE. NOT BECAUSE I WOULDN'T CONSIDER A SECOND OR SUBSEQUENT ONE, BUT BECAUSE I THINK THAT THIS APPLICANT HAS GONE THROUGH THE PROCESS OF TALKING TO THE NEIGHBORS IN THE DOWNTOWN HERITAGE DISTRICT, BUILDING SUPPORT FOR THIS, AND I WOULD WANT A SECOND TATTOOING BUSINESS TO THROUGH THAT SAME PROCESS RATHER THAN JUST MOVING IN AND GOING BY RIGHT. SO I THINK THAT A PROPOSAL TO CHANGE IT TO ONE THAT I BELIEVE MAYOR PRO TEM PRINCE AND COUNCIL MEMBER WILLIAMS HAVE ENDORSE AND I WILL ENDORSE AS WELL. >> Mayor Muns: I THINK WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND, SO I THINK WITH NEED TO VOTE ON IT. WE HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND. >> MAYOR, PER OUR -- WHAT DO YOU CALL THEM, THE RULES OF COUNCIL PROCEDURE? I THINK WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO MAKE AN INTERRUPTING MOTION TO MAKE AN AMENDMENT TO THE MOTION ON THE FLOOR. >> Mayor Muns: BUT THE PERSON WHO MADE THE MOTION HAS TO AGREE TO THAT AMENDMENT. >> THAT WASN'T MY UNDERSTANDING, BUT ARE YOU OKAY WITH -- >> I DON'T HAVE THE RULES. >> IF I MAY INTERJECT, I'M PRETTY SURE THAT UNDER THE RULES WE ADOPTED IT DOES SAY THAT A MOTION TO AMEND TAKES PRECEDENCE AND I ALSO THINK THAT WOULD BE GOOD BECAUSE EVERYBODY SUPPORTS THIS SO RATHER THAN HAVING A DIVIDED VOTE WE COULD HAVE A >> I THINK WE'VE TALKED ABOUT THIS BEFORE. I DON'T THINK YOU CAN USE THAT PROCESS TO ESSENTIALLY CHANGE THE MEANING OF THE MOTION, ALTHOUGH I DON'T HAVE THE RULES RIGHT HERE IN FRONT OF ME -- >> WE PROBABLY NEED TO GET THOSE IN THE FUTURE. >> YEAH. >> THANK YOU, MAYOR. I DO WANT TO POINT OUT THE FACT THAT SOME OF YOU HAVEN'T BEEN IN DOWNTOWN PLANO RECENTLY, WE HAVE BUSINESSES THAT ARE LEAVING, WE HAVE EMPTY SHOPS DOWN THERE, AND THAT IS NOT GOOD FOR ANYBODY IN DOWNTOWN PLANO. M IN FAVOR. >> Mayor Muns: I HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND TO APPROVE THE RECOMMENDATION BY P&Z RECOMMENDATION, PLEASE VOTE. THANK YOU, COUNCILMEMBER GRADY. SO MOTION PASSES FIVE TO THREE. GOT THAT? ALL RIGHT. THERE BEING NO FURTHER BUSINESS, MEETING IS ADJOURNED.
