>> THOSE IN THE AUDIENCE WHO HAVE SUBMITTED A PARTICIPATION WITNESS FORM WILL HAVE THREE MINUTES TO SPEAK.

UNFORTUNATELY, NO ACTION CAN BE TAKEN BY THE COURT DURING PUBLIC COMMENT AS WE ARE EXPECTED NOT TO RESPOND.

SPEAK. >> GOOD MORNING COURT.

THANK YOU FOR HEARING MY COMMENTS.

COMMISSIONERS, JUDGE THE SETUP.

Y NAME IS LAUREN NANETTE AND I'M ASKING YOU TO RECOGNIZE THAT VOTER CONFIDENCE IS AT AN ALL-TIME LOW DUE TO THE SHROUD OF MYSTERY SURROUNDING ELECTION RESULTS, THE ELECTION ÃÃ ELECTRONIC ELECTION PROCESS AND THE CONTRACT TIED TO ELECTRONIC VOTING. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, I GREW UP VISITING MY PARENTS HERE IN THE SAN MARCUS SEVERAL TIMES A YEAR. I WAS LOVED THE WHOLE COUNTRY SO I HAVE DECIDED TO SEND MARCUS TWO YEARS AGO.

SINCE THAT TIME, I'VE MET AND BEGUN WORKING WITH VOTERS WHO SHARE MY CONCERNS ABOUT THE ACCURACY AND VALIDITY OF THE NOVEMBER 2020 ELECTION. WHAT I HAVE SEEN IN TERMS OF VOTER REGISTRATION ANOMALIES AND THE ALARMING NUMBER OF ERRORS IN THE VOTER WILL HAVE GIVEN ME CAUSE FOR CONCERN AND DRIVEN ME TO SPEND MY RETIREMENT REVIEWING OUR ELECTIONS. LIKE MANY, I HAVE TRUSTED THE ELECTIONS SYSTEMS THAT WE'VE EMPLOYED IN OUR COUNTRY.

OW, I HAVE SERIOUS CONCERNS ABOUT THE ACCURACY AND VALIDITY OF OUR PROCESSES BASED ON THE EVIDENCE THAT I HAVE SEEN WITH MY OWN EYES AND PEOPLE WITH WHO I'VE SPOKEN.

I AM DISAPPOINTED TO FIND THAT HAYES COUNTY PUBLIC RESULTS DO NOT MATCH THE ACTUAL VOTER ROLLS.

EVEN THE PUBLISHED NUMBER OF PRESENT REGISTRATION TOTALS ARE SIMPLY INCORRECT AND I WOULD LIKE AN EXPLANATION.

WHAT WE NEED NOW IS ELECTION SECURITY SO THAT WE CAN UNDERSTAND AND HAVE CONFIDENCE IN OUR ELECTIONS WHICH WE SIMPLY DO NOT HAVE TODAY. TO THAT END, I'VE STUDIED THE ELECTION CODE AND FOUND THAT THE FOLLOWING ITEMS WILL HELP RESTORE SECURITY AND CONFIDENCE AN HOUR CONFIDENCE IN HAYS COUNTY. NUMBER ONE, SEQUENTIALLY NUMBER ONE PRINTED BALLOTS UNSECURED PAPER ACCORDING TO TEXAS ELECTION CODE 52.062. THE JUDGE'S SIGNATURE ON EVERY SINGLE BALLOT ACCORDING TO TEXAS ELECTION CODE 62.008.

I AM A VOLUNTEER DEPUTY TO REGISTER.

I'VE BEEN A POLL WORKER AND A PRECINCT CHAIR.

AND I ALWAYS ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO BE ENGAGED IN CIVICS AND VOTE ACCORDING TO THEIR CONSCIENCE.

THIS IS NOT A PARTISAN ISSUE. ELECTION SECURITY AFFECTS ALL VOTERS. FINALLY, PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT TRANSPARENCY CAN NEVER BE AN END WITHIN ITSELF.

TRANSPARENCY IS A TOOL. USED TO REVEAL TRUTH AND THAT IS THE GOAL. PLEASE SERIOUSLY CONSIDER BEING TRANSPARENT ABOUT OUR ELECTIONS AND RETURNING TO SECURE PROCESSES. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

>> THANK YOU SO MUCH. AND YOU ARE RIGHT.

THAT IS A BIG DEAL FOR ALMOST TO MAKE SURE WE DO THIS RIGHT.

TOMORROW, BACK, YOU WILL HAVE THREE MINUTES IF YOU WILL

APPROACH THE PODIUM. >> I'VE NEVER DONE THIS BEFORE.

>> THAT'S OKAY. YOU WILL SPEAK, SAY YOUR NAME AND THEN WHEN THE TIMER GOES OFF, THEN YOU SHOULD ÃÃYOU DON'T HAVE TO STOP TALKING LIKE A CAT IN THE HEADLIGHTS.

YOU JUST WRAP UP YOUR THOUGHTS IN THE MOST CONCISE WAY

POSSIBLE. >> I'VE MADE COPIES OF A WEBSITE. CAN I?

>> YOU CAN HAND THEM TOO. YES.

SOMEONE HERE FROM THE CITY COUNTY CLERK'S OFFICE WILL GRAB

THEM AND DISPERSE THEM. >> I WOULD LIKE YOU TO SEE

THEM. >> YOU HAVE GOT IT.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH AND THANK YOU FOR COMING OUT.

THIS WHOLE PROCESS DOESN'T WORK WITHOUT YOUR OCCASIONS.

>> I AM TAMRA BACK AND I LIVE IN WIMBERLEY IN THE MOUNT SHARP AREA, WHICH IS ON THE BACK OF HIGHWAY 12.

AND WE HAVE HAD LOTS OF DRY WELLS.

WE HAVE HAD ABOUT FIVE WILDFIRES IN THE LAST SIX WEEKS. IT IS VERY CONCERNING.ND NOW WE FIND OUT THAT HORSESHOE RIDGE THEME PARK IS COME TO HIGHWAY 12.ND I TOOK ALL THIS INFORMATION DIRECTLY OFF OF THEIR WEBSITE. I TOOK PICTURES OF IT AND PUT IT IN HERE. AND THEY SAY THAT THEY'VE GOT A BIG SWIMMING POOL, JACUZZI, FISHING PONDS, LAUNDRY SHOWERS AND RESTROOMS. NOW, THAT'S KIND OF SCARY FOR THOSE OF US WHO LIVE THERE. AND ALSO FIRE PITS.

[00:10:07]

WE WOULD LIKE A MORATORIUM ON BUSINESS WELLS OR SOMETHING SIMILAR. SO, WE CAN HAVE WATER UNTIL IT STARTS RAINING AGAIN. AND THAT IS BASICALLY IT.

AND IF THERE IS MORE THAT WE CAN DO IN OUR AREA, WE ARE WILLING TO DO THAT. BUT WE REALLY WANT TO KEEP THE JACUZZIS AND SWIMMING POOLS AND FISHING PONDS AND ANDRES AND SHOWERS AND RESTAURANTS WAY INTO THE FUTURE.

AFTER WE HAVE ENOUGH WATER IN OUR WELLS.

THANKS A LOT. I REALLY APPRECIATE YOU.

>> YOU DID A WONDERFUL JOB.

ELL DONE.> THANK YOU. >> AND IT IS TRUE.

THIS IS THE LOUDEST PLACE TO COME AND BE HEARD BECAUSE YOU HAVE THE WHOLE COURT AND WE ARE TELEVISED.

AND WE ARE A COURT OF RECORD AND SO, THIS CAN BE STORED FOR YOUR GRANT HITS TO SEE. IF YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT.

IT'S A VERY, VERY GREAT AND USEFUL PLACE TO COME SPEAK.

THANKS SO MUCH. NEXT WE HAVE VENUS WHILE THERE.

COME ON DOWN. THREE MINUTES.

>> GOOD MORNING. >> I AM HERE TO ADDRESS YOU AS A CONCERNED CITIZEN IN HAYES COUNTY VOTER.

I'VE BEEN REGISTERED TO VOTE SINCE THE AGE OF 18 AND NEVER QUESTIONED THE ACCURACY AND INTEGRITY OF THE ELECTION PROCESS. UNTIL NOW.

DISCUSSIONS WITH FELLOW CITIZENS AND REVIEW PUBLIC INFORMATION AND ANALYSIS HAVE LED TO MANY TO BELIEVE THAT THERE ARE POSSIBLE IRREGULARITIES IN THE VOTING PROCESS.E HAVE LOST CONFIDENCE IN THIS PROCESS.

AND THEREFORE IN OUR VOTE. OUR VOTE IS SACRED AND SHOULD BE FAIR IN ITS IMPLEMENTATION AND TRANSPARENT.

THE AMERICAN VOTING PROCESS IS WHAT'S ÃÃWHO MERELY HAVE THE APPEARANCE OF FAIR ELECTIONS. TO RESTORE CONFIDENCE AND FAIRNESS AND TRANSPARENCY TO OUR VOTING PROCESS, I WOULD ASK THAT HAYS COUNTY FOLLOW STATE LAWS AND PROCEDURES AS MANDATED BY SECRETARY OF STATE ELECTIONS DIVISION ON AUGUST 10, 2021 PART OF WHICH READS AS FOLLOWS. LIGHT COLORED PAPER, NOT YELLOW WITH COLORS APPROVED BY SECRETARY OF STATE.

NUMBER CONSECUTIVELY. BEGINNING WITH ONE.ELECTION DAY BALLOTS PRESIDE WITH JUDGES SIGNATURES ON THE BACK OF THE BALLAD. EARLY VOTING BALLOTS MUST HAVE THE EARLY VOTING CLERK'S INITIALS ON THE BACK OF THE BALLOT.NCLUDING BALLOTS BY MAIL.

THESE REQUIREMENTS APPEAR TO PAPER BALLOTS AND BALLOTS MARKED BY BALLOT MARKING DEVICES.

THESE FIRST STEPS WILL START US ON THE PATH TO RESTORING VOTER CONFIDENCE AND ENSURE THAT OUR VOTE REMAINS A MEANINGFUL AND SACRED PRIVILEGE. BEGIN.

>> YOU ARE VERY WELCOME. THIS IS THE SECOND PERSON, NOT TO MENTION THOSE WHO HAVE REACHED OUT TO ME.

I'M GOING TO REACH OUT TO OUR ELECTIONS DEPARTMENT AND SEE IF THEY COULD SEND SOMEONE ON TUESDAY TO GIVE US A SHORT SUMMARY OF THE THINGS GOING ON AND EXPLAIN THOSE THINGS THAT WE ARE WORKING ON SO THAT YOU WILL FEEL COMFORTABLE.

BECAUSE YOU MUST ÃÃYOU MUST. OTHERWISE, WE HAVE JUST THROWN IT ALL AWAY. GO TO REACH OUT TO OUR OFFICE

JUST SO YOU KNOW. >> JUDGE, JUST BY WAY OF BACKGROUND. I MET WITH A NUMBER OF THESE CITIZENS ALREADY AND ONE OF THE GROUPS ASSOCIATED WITH IT.ND I'VE HAD CONVERSATIONS WITH ELECTIONS ADMINISTRATOR ANDERSON. AND I THINK THAT IT'S VERY DOABLE FOR US.LREADY, OUR ELECTION JUDGES AS THE PRIMARY OF LAST YEAR SIGNED THE BACK OF EVERY BALLOT, WHICH IS ONE OF THE REQUESTS. AND I THINK IT'S VERY DOABLE FOR US TO DO THIS SEQUENTIALLY NUMBERED BALLOTS.

THAT'S ONE OF THE REQUESTS I'VE HAD SO.

>> THIS IS THE BEST PLACE. THIS IS GOLDEN.

NEXT UP, MR. DANDELION. THIS IS YOUR FIRST TIME AT THE

PODIUM MR. LINE. >> IT'S THE FIRST TIME IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS. GOOD MORNING JUDGE.

OMMISSIONERS? I WOULD LIKE TO APOLOGIZE FOR NOT BEING HERE LAST WEEK.

WAS HEADING TO LOS ANGELES. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE WITH THE SAN ANTONIO AUSTIN CORRIDOR WILL LOOK LIKE IN 10 YEARS OR LESS, YOU SHOULD VISIT LOS ANGELES.

I COULD NOT HELP BUT NOTICE IN THE BACKUP OF AGENDA ITEM K8 LED UP TO 1 MILLION RESIDENTS ARE EXPECTED TO MOVE TO THE WHOLE COUNTRY BY 2030. THAT IS LESS THAN 7 AND A HALF YEARS AWAY. I'M SURE Y'ALL HAVE NOTICED THIS FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS. THIS GOES A LONG WAY TO EXPLAIN WHY WITH THE HELP OF THE GREATER ST. MARK'S PARTNERSHIP ALL OVER LOCAL TAXING AUTHORITIES HAVE RAISED TAXES

[00:15:01]

20 MILLION.ACH OF THE LAST TWO YEARS.

AND THEN THE REAL ESTATE AGENTS, WHO MAKE ADMISSIONS OVER TIME THEY TURN OVER PROPERTY.

THIS EXPLAINS WHY THERE ARE SO MANY REAL ESTATE AGENTS ON THE CENTRAL APPRAISAL DISTRICTS BOARD OF APPEALS.

WHO HAVE INVESTED INTEREST IN KEEPING PROPERTY VALUE ÃÃ EVALUATIONS ARTIFICIALLY HIGH. AND THEN HERE COMES THE REAL ESTATE DEVELOPERS WHO BUILD APARTMENTS FOR SINGLE-FAMILY HOMES THAT ONCE STOOD. AND SUBDIVISIONS WERE FORMED ONCE THRIVED. LET'S NOT FORGET THE ROAD BUILDERS. WHAT NOT FORGET EVERY TIME COMMISSIONERS APPROVED THE ROAD, SUBDIVISIONS POP UP.

THE COUNTY ÃÃTHE COUNTY EVEN HAS ENOUGH MONEY TO GIVE ROADS AWAY. I.E. COMMERCE COURT.

WHO DO YOUR TAX POLICY ÃÃ POLICIES HURT MOST? THE POOR AND THE WORKING MIDDLE CLASS.

WHAT DOES OUR CREATOR THINK ABOUT THIS? PROVERBS. 2917.

A RIGHTEOUS MAN KNOWS THE RIGHTS OF THE POOR. WICKED MAN DOES NOT UNDERSTAND SUCH KNOWLEDGE.

PROVERBS 19 ONE. THE POOR MAN WHO WALKS IN HIS INTEGRITY THAN A RICH MAN WHO IS CROOKED IN HIS WAYS.

PSALM 14 SIX. YOU WOULD SHAME THE PLANS OF THE POOR, BUT YOUR WAY IS HIS REFUGE.

ISAIAH 315. WHY DO YOU CRUSH MY PEOPLE AND GRIND THE FACES OF THE POOR? AND THIS ONE SCARES ME THE MOST. PROVERBS 22.2 THROUGH 23.

DO NOT ROB THE POOR, BECAUSE HE IS POOR OR CRUSH THE AFFLICTED.

AT THE GATE. FIRST Y'ALL WILL PLEAD THEIR CAUSE AND ROB OF LIFE. THOSE WHO ROB THEM.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

ND THE REMAINDER ARE TIED DIRECTLY TO AGENDA ITEMS. SO, WE WILL ÃÃI WILL CALL YOU NAMES WHEN THE AGENDA ITEM IS (WAS THAT THE INTENTION? THAT'S HOW IT'S GONNA ROLL FORWARD UNLESS YOU WANT TO SPEAK NOW?

[F1. Presentation by the Homeless Coalition of Hays County on the 2022 Point-in-Time Report. BECERRA]

ALL RIGHT. SO NOW, PLEASE OPEN AGENDA ITEM

NUMBER F ÃONE. >> F ÃONE.

PRESENTATION BY THE HOMELESS COALITION OF HAYES COUNTY ON

THE 2022 POINT IN TIME REPORT. >> ALL RIGHT.

>> GOOD MORNING PICK. >> GOOD MORNING.

>> IF YOU WOULD PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME AND TITLE FOR THE

VIEWING PUBLIC COULD. >> SURE.

MY NAME IS REVEREND JOSHUA SUTHERLIN.

I'M PATRICK THE FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.

I'M CHAIRMAN OF THE HOMELESS COLLISION OF HAYES COUNTY.

THIS IS NANCY HINES. SHE WAS THE COORDINATOR OF THE POINT IN TIME COUNT. WHICH IS WHAT WE ARE HERE TO DISCUSS WITH YOU TODAY. AND SO, I'M AM GOING TO GIVE YOU THE CHANCE TO READ THIS OUT.

>> GOOD MORNING. SO, WE'VE GOT A BRIEF POWERPOINT TO MOVE US ALONG. THROUGH THIS.

AND THEN WE WILL LEAVE YOU WITH THE OFFICIAL REPORT THAT WAS TURNED INTO TEXAS HOMELESS NETWORK.

AND SUBSEQUENTLY IS LISTED WITH HUD AS OUR OFFICIAL NUMBERS.

SO, THE FIRST THING IS TO TALK ABOUT WHAT IS THE COUNT? THE POINT IN TIME COUNT IS A COUNT OF PEOPLE EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS, BOTH SHELTERED AND UNSHELTERED ON A SINGLE NIGHT IN JANUARY. IT REALLY IS A SNAPSHOT OF HOMELESSNESS IN OUR COMMUNITY AND A MOMENT IN TIME.

SO THAT 24 HOUR PERIOD IS WHEN WE DO THE ÃÃONE OUR VOLUNTEERS ARE OUT. THAT NIGHT OF THE 27TH WAS ONE RECOUNTED SHELTERED PEOPLE. SO THAT EVERYBODY ACROSS THE COUNTRY IS USING THE SAME POINT IN TIME.

SHELTERED JUST SO YOU KNOW, THE DIFFERENTIATION BETWEEN WHAT WE CAN INCLUDE IN SHELTERED INCLUDES PEOPLE LIVING IN EMERGENCY SHELTER OR TRANSITIONAL HOUSING.

BUT IT HAS TO BE FOR LESS THAN 90 DAYS FOR THEM TO BE CONSIDERED SHELTERED. UNSHELTERED INCLUDED PEOPLE LIVING IN A PLACE NOT MEANT FOR HUMAN HABITATION.

SUCH AS WHAT YOU WOULD EXPECT STREETS UNDER BRIDGES IN THEIR CARS, VACANT BUILDINGS, PLACES LIKE IT SAYS.

NOT MEANT FOR HUMAN HABITATION. WHERE DID WE DO THIS? THIS YEAR, I WAS NEW. I'VE BEEN IN HAYES COUNTY FOR ABOUT EIGHT MONTHS WHEN I AGREED TO HELP COORDINATE THIS WITH HANNAH DURRANT'S HOME CENTER.

AND SO, WE WERE ONLY ABLE ÃÃ EVEN THOUGH WE REACHED OUT TO THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT. SOME OF THOSE WHO WENT OUT

[00:20:05]

THE TRICK IS WHERE WE LOCATE PEOPLE ON THAT DATE WITHIN THAT 24 HOUR PERIOD. SO, WE WERE UNABLE TO REALLY FIND PEOPLE THAT DAY. BEYOND SAN MARCUS PROPER.

HO IS COORDINATING THIS? WE WORK WITH TEXAS HOMELESS NETWORK. WHO IS OUR LEAD AGENCY FOR THE BALANCE OF STATE. WHICH OUR COALITION JOINT.

WHEN THE COALITION WAS CREATED, IT BECAME PART OF TEXAS HOMELESS NETWORK. BECAUSE EVERY COALITION SHOULD BE A PART OF A CONTINUUM OF CARE.

AND SO, THAT HAS BEEN TESTED AS WE'VE BEEN A MEMBER OF THAT FOR THE PAST THREE YEARS. WE HAD A GREAT GROUP OF VOLUNTEERS. WE HAD 29 PEOPLE THAT STEPPED UP FOR THAT DAY. AND HELP WITH THE UNSHELTERED ACCOUNT. AND AS WELL AS SHELTERED ACCOUNT, EXCUSE ME. REQUIREMENTS, WE ARE REQUIRED BY THIS TEST IS EVERY COC IS REQUIRED TO DO THIS BY HUD.

THE COUNT ILLUSTRATES TRENDS. HE POINT IN TIME THIS YEAR WAS A MORE THOROUGH COUNT BECAUSE THIS YEAR WE WERE ABLE TO DO THE SERVICE. BECAUSE OF COVID, IT HAS BEEN HAMPERED. LAST YEAR, AND YOU WILL SEE THIS WITH IN YOUR REPORT THAT WE ARE LEAVING WITH YOU.

LAST YEAR WAS ONLY OBSERVATIONS FOR THE SAFETY OF OUR VOLUNTEERS AND THE PEOPLE THAT WERE BEING COUNTED.HE FIRST YEAR WAS A LITTLE MAKES. I FEEL LIKE THIS YEAR WE'VE GOT REALLY GOOD BETTER INFORMATION ON WHO YOU GET TO ASK THE QUESTION. THAT PEOPLE ARE WILLING TO ANSWER. AND THE THREE GET THE INPUT.

THE THREE GET THE DATA THAT HELPS YOU WHERE THE ISSUES ARE.

LIKE I SAID, PROVIDES INSIGHTS INTO THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE COMMUNITIES HOUSING. PROGRAMS.ND THE HOMELESSNESS SERVICES, WHICH FROM WHERE I COME FROM, JUST AN OBSERVATION.

HAYS COUNTY HAS GOT SOME GAPS IN THEIR CONTINUUM OF CARE THAT WE HOPE IS THE COALITION WEEKEND.

IT CAN HELP ADDRESS. >> THAT LEADS US TO THE ACTUAL RESULTS OF THE POIN IN TIME COUNT.

AND SO, WE WANT TO SHARE THIS WITH YOU DIRECTLY.

YOU CAN SEE FROM THE COLUMN ON THE FAR LEFT THAT FROM THE THREE YEARS THAT WE HAVE BEEN DOING POINT IN TIME COUNTS, THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS.

AT LEAST THAT WE OBSERVED OR TALKED TO HAS BEEN STEADILY GROWING. AND SO, I THINK WE CAN SEE THAT AROUND OUR COMMUNITY AS WELL. BUT, AGAIN, WOMAN LOOK AT THE 2021 COUNT, UNDERSTAND THAT THOSE NUMBERS MIGHT BE DUPLICATED. THOSE NUMBERS MIGHT BE ÃTHIS WE DID NOT ACTUALLY TALK TO ANYONE.

SO, THOSE NUMBERS ÃÃWHEN WE THINK ABOUT THAT.

WE SORT OF JUST WASH THEM OUT AS THEY JUST DON'T.

THEY DON'T HELP US UNDERSTAND MUCH ABOUT THE TRENDS.

IN HOMELESSNESS IN THE COMMUNITY.

SO, YOU CAN SEE FROM THIS YEAR'S COUNT THAT 173 TOTAL INDIVIDUALS WERE CONSIDERED TO BE EXPENSING HOMELESSNESS AT THE EXACT DATE ON JANUARY 27 OF THIS COUNT.

SO, THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE THAT ARE UNSHELTERED, PEOPLE WHO SAID THEY HAD NO PLACE TO SLEEP EXCEPT THE STREETS OR THE RIVERBEDS OR WHEREVER. THAT WAS 68 TOTAL INDIVIDUALS.

THE TOTAL NUMBER OF SHELTERED PEOPLE, WHICH IS PEOPLE WITHIN TRANSITIONAL HOUSING PROGRAMS IN THEIR COMMUNITY WAS 105.

THOSE TRANSITIONAL HOUSING PROGRAMS INCLUDE THE UVALDE WOMAN'S CALL CENTER. THE HOME CENTER AND TOGETHER FOR A CAUSE. THOSE THREE ORGANIZATIONS HAVE MOST OF THESE 105 INDIVIDUALS. THERE ARE FEW PEOPLE WHO SAID THEY HAD SOMEPLACE TO SLEEP TONIGHT THAT ARE NOT NECESSARILY IN TRANSITIONAL HOUSING.

ANYWAY, SORRY. THAT'S NOT THE RIGHT THING TO SAY IS IT? THERE ARE FEW PEOPLE WHO ARE STAYING IN SOUTHSIDE, BUT WE DID NOT GET A FULL REPORT FROM SOUTHSIDE COMMUNITIES THIS YEAR TO BE INCLUDED IN THAT 105 INDIVIDUALS. SO, OF THE OBSERVATION ONLY PEOPLE, THOSE ARE PEOPLE WHO HAVE EITHER REFUSED TO ANSWER SURVEY QUESTIONS OR PEOPLE THAT WE SAW, BUT CANNOT GET TO FOR VARIOUS SAFETY REASONS OR OTHER CONCERNS.

THOSE ARE THE 15 INDIVIDUALS THAT YOU SEE UNDER OBSERVATION ONLY. IF YOU LOOK DOWN THAT LIST, OR TRANSITIONAL PROGRAMS ÃÃWE'RE GONNA HAVE MORE TRANSITIONAL HOUSING PROGRAMS RIGHT NOW THAN WE USED TO.

HICH IS WHY THAT NUMBER OF SHELTERED PEOPLE HAS GROWN SO MUCH. BUT, YOU COULD SEE FROM 2020 FEBRUARY 20, 2022 THAT WE CERTAINLY WERE ABLE TO FIND AND ABLE TO OBSERVE AND TALK TO MORE PEOPLE WHO ARE EXPERIENCING HOMELESS NOW THAN THEY WERE IN 2020 WITHIN HAYES COUNTY. NEXT SLIDE PLEASE?

[00:25:08]

>> OKAY, A FEW KEY FINDINGS THAT I THINK ARE HELPFUL IN UNDERSTANDING THIS DATA. THE FIRST IS THAT ABOUT 31 PERCENT OF THE HUNDRED AND 73 PEOPLE REPORTED TO BE FIRST-TIME HOMELESS. SO, FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT NEED THE NUMBER AND INSTEAD THAT IS 54.IGHT? 54 OF 173 PEOPLE SAID THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT I HAVE EXPERIENCED HOMELESSNESS. THAT IS A PRETTY LARGE AND SIGNIFICANT NUMBER. THE OTHER SIGNIFICANT NUMBER IS THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THAT COIN, WHICH IS 34 PERCENT OR 59 IN THOSE PEOPLE. REPORTED IDENTIFIED AS BEING CHRONICALLY HOMELESS. WHICH FROM THIS DEFINITION IS PEOPLE WHO'VE EXPERIENCED HOMELESSNESS FOR AT LEAST A YEAR WHILE STRUGGLING WITH DISABLED CONDITIONS.

SUBSTANCE ABUSE OR PHYSICAL DISABILITY.

SO, TOGETHER OF THE 173 PEOPLE THAT WE COMMUNICATED WITH AND WORKED WITH, THERE ARE ÃÃTHAT IS 100 AND 1373 PEOPLE REPRESENTED IN FIRST TIME HOMELESSNESS AND CHRONICALLY HOMELESS PEOPLE. THE OTHER IMPORTANT DATA IS THAT WE FOUND THAT THERE WERE 12 PEOPLE WHO SUFFERED FROM IT.

THEY WERE VETERANS. SEVEN OF THOSE 12 PEOPLE IDENTIFIED AS CHRONICALLY HOMELESS PEOPLE.

LL OF THE 32 CHILDREN THAT WE TALKED TO AND FAMILIES THAT WE TALK TO, THEY ALL IDENTIFIED AS BEING SHELTERED.

AND THAT IS GOOD NEWS. THE OUR CHILDREN ARE NOT ON THE STREETS. HOWEVER, SIX OF THE 15 YOUNG ADULTS THAT WE TALKED TO IDENTIFIED AS UNSHELTERED.

NOT HAVING A PLACE TO GO. IT WAS ABOUT 18 18Ö4 ARE THAT AGE GROUP. SO, HERE IS OUR REQUEST.

SO, THAT IS THE INFORMATION AND I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU IN A SECOND. I'M GOING TO GO AHEAD AND SAY COUPLE OF THINGS. FIRST, THE HOMELESS COALITION IS JUST A COALITION OF FOLKS WHO ARE WORKING WITHIN AND THINKING ABOUT HOMELESSNESS WITHIN OUR COMMUNITY.

SO, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE DON'T HAVE RIGHT NOW IS REPRESENTATION FROM THE COUNTY ON THE COALITION.

SO, WE DO NOT HAVE ÃÃWE HAVE PEOPLE FROM THE SCHOOL DISTRICTS, PEOPLE FROM THE CITY OF DIMARCO.

PEOPLE FROM EVERY ORGANIZATION THAT WE CAN GET TO JOIN WITH US THINKING ABOUT AND TALKING ABOUT HOMELESSNESS.

AS OF RIGHT NOW, WE DID NOT HAVE ANYBODY FROM HAYES.

>> YOU HAVE ANYBODY FROM THE COUNTY.

THE CITY OF SAN DIMARCO. WHATEVER CITY DO YOU HAVE TO

REPRESENT? >> OFFICIALLY, NONE.

>> THAT COULD BE IN PART WHY YOU ONLY HAVE ÃÃI SUPPORT YOUR CONVERSATION. KEEP GOING.

[INDISCERNIBLE] >> OKAY.

SO, WE'RE LOOKING TO CHANGE. NOT CHANGE, BUT I GUESS MOST OF THE ORGANIZATIONS THAT EXIST AND DEAL WITH UNCHARTERED FOLKS AND SENT TO MARCO. PEOPLE JUMP RIGHT IN WHEN THEY SAID WE'RE GONNA DO THIS. WE REALLY NEED A COUNTYWIDE STRATEGY TO UNDERSTANDING AND PREVENTING HOMELESSNESS WITHIN OUR COMMUNITY. AND SO, TO DO THAT BUT WE NEED TO BRING AN JUSTICE WE NEED TO BRING IN OTHER ORGANIZATIONS.

THERE ARE OTHER ORGANIZATIONS FROM OUTSIDE OF ST. MARK IS THAT WE ARE HAVING PARTICIPATING.

WE DON'T HAVE ANYBODY FROM THE REST OF IT.

MOSTLY FROM THE GOVERNMENTS STANDPOINT IS WHO EXISTS WITHIN THE STRUCTURE RIGHT NOW. SO, THE OTHER THING IS JUST SIMPLY YOUR SUPPORT. NOT THAT WE EXIST AND KNOW THAT THE COALITION EXISTS. NOT THAT WE ARE WORKING TO TRY TO UNDERSTAND THE SITUATION HERE IN SAINT MARCOS AND THEN WORK TO MAKE HOMELESSNESS I GUESS THAT'S JUST CAN'T NECESSARILY PREVENT IT, BUT WE CAN REDUCE IT AND HOWEVER OFTEN IT HAPPENS AND REDUCE THE TIME IN WHICH PEOPLE ARE SPENDING IN UNSHELTERED SITUATIONS. AND I SAY PREVENT IN MEANING THAT PEOPLE WILL BECOME UNSHELTERED RIGHT? I WANT TO GET THEM OUT OF THAT AS SOON AS WE POSSIBLY CAN, RIGHT? THAT IS THE PREVENTION PART WE WOULD LOVE TO LOVE HAVE IT NEVER NOT HAPPEN.

THAT'S NOT REALLY POSSIBLE, BUT WE CAN WORK TO REDUCE IT HEAVILY AND MAKE IT JUST LESS FREQUENT.

SO, I THINK ÃÃI'M GONNA PAUSE PER SECOND.

IF THAT'S ALL RIGHT. AND I'M JUST GONNA SAY ARE THE QUESTIONS ABOUT WHAT WE ARE PRESENTING OR WHAT WE HAVE SAID SO FAR THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL FOR YOU?

>> LET'S FIND OUT. COMMISSIONERS?

>> I DON'T KNOW THAT I HAVE THE DIRECT QUESTION, BUT I JUST

[00:30:01]

THANK YOU.> THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU ALL.

>> I JUST HAD A COUPLE QUESTIONS AND ACTUALLY AS YOU ARE SPEAKING, WROTE DOWN SEVERAL QUESTIONS AND ANSWER THEM. THE FIRST ONE WAS WORKING WITH THE WOMEN'S CALDWELL SHELTER. THAT'S WHAT WE CONSIDER TRANSITIONAL HOUSING. GETTING THOSE NUMBERS IS GREAT.

BUT YOU DID IT. LOOKING COUNTYWIDE, WE HAVE SUCH OVERLAP WITH CALDWELL COUNTY.

I DON'T KNOW IF Y'ALL ARE COORDINATING WITH ANYBODY THERE, BUT I WOULD SUGGEST, ESPECIALLY SINCE SANTA BARBARA IS A CITY THAT YOU LOOK AT. AND FACILITIES LIKE EAST CALDWELL. WOMEN'S SHELTER, THEY REALLY PULL ÃÃTHEY PULL CLIENTS FROM BOTH SIDES OF THAT BORDER.

HE MENTIONED THE ISPS. KNOW I'VE WORKED WITH PEOPLE WHO WORKED IN ISD, AND A COUPLE OF OTHERS WHERE THEY IDENTIFY INDIVIDUAL SIT FAMILIES ARE STUDENTS WHO DO NOT HAVE A FAMILY, WHO ARE ATTENDING THOSE SCHOOLS.

AND I WAS CAN ASK YOU HAVE SOME RELATIONSHIP WITH ALL THE ISPS

IN THE COUNTY? >> YES.

>> WE ARE WORKING ON THAT. WE HAD ONE HOMELESSNESS LIAISON THAT WAS VERY ACTIVE WITH THE COALITION FROM HAYES ISD.

WHICH IS COUNTY ONE. AND THEN A COUPLE OF THE AREAS.

WE ARE WORKING ON THE OTHER SCHOOL DISTRICTS.

DRIPPING SPRINGS, WHEN I'VE SPOKEN WITH THEM ABOUT THE ACCOUNT, WHAT WE DO JUST AS THEY WORRIED ABOUT THE DIFFERENCE IN THE WAY THE SCHOOL DISTRICTS THAT IDENTIFIED HOMELESSNESS. THEY IDENTIFY STUDENTS AT THE POINT OF ENROLLMENT. THEY DON'T ENGAGE WITH STUDENTS ON THE POINT IN TIME. HUD DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THAT AS IT CANNOT BE ROLLED IN. THE NUMBERS THAT WE GET FROM SCHOOL DISTRICTS WILL NOT BE REFLECTED IN THE END ACCOUNT.

THE TOTAL NUMBER OF HOMELESS PEOPLE EXPERIENCING

HOMELESSNESS. >> CAN THEY REACT THAT QUESTION ON THAT DAY IN JANUARY EACH YEAR?

>> THEY CAN, BUT FOR THE SAKE OF THE POINT OF DIFFERENTIATION IS THAT SCHOOL DISTRICTS AND THIS WAS FROM HUD.

SCHOOL DISTRICTS, ANYTHING THAT MAKES A STUDENT UNSTABLE, SO, THEY COUNT DOUBLED UP. WHICH MEANS THEY ARE SLEEPING ON SOMEONE'S COUCH OR SLEEPING WITH FAMILY MEMBERS.

THAT DOES NOT FALL UNDER THE DEFINITION OF HOMELESSNESS.

BY THE ACCOUNT THAT THE DEFINITION THAT WE HAVE TO FOLLOW WHEN WE ARE DOING THE POINT IN TIME COUNT.

REALLY FOR ANYTHING AROUND HOMELESSNESS.

OTHER THAN SCHOOL DISTRICTS. IT'S A UNIQUE NUMBER.

IT'S GOOD FOR THAT NARRATIVE THOUGH.

SO THAT YOU KNOW THAT THERE IS INSTABILITY.

THIS INSTABILITY IN THE STUDENTS THAT WE KNOW THAT THAT AFFECTS EVERYTHING.HE NUMBERS THAT WE DID RECEIVE JUST TO GIVE YOU A QUICK GLANCE LIKE HAYES.

ISD. THEIR TOTAL OF DOUBLED UP.

DAVE 205 STUDENTS THAT WERE DOUBLED UP.

FOR A MOTEL OR HOTEL SPACE, THEY HAVE TO BE PAID FOR BY SOMEONE ELSE. NOT FAMILIES PAYING FOR THEMSELVES. WE HAD NOT.

THEY HAD NINE. IN SHELTER, THIS WAS AT THE TIME OF ENROLLMENT.O, THIS WOULD'VE BEEN BACK FROM LAST AUGUST. OF 2021.

21 THAT WERE SHELTERED. UNSHELTERED, THEY SHOWED 13 OF THEIR STUDENTS. NOW, THEIR ACCOUNTS, THE DATA THAT THEY GAVE TO US FROM THE TEAMS HAS ANY GREAT BANDS OR AGE BANDS. THE MOST INTERESTING AND UNSHELTERED FROM THEIR DATA WAS PRE-K THROUGH FIVE.ND THE TOTAL NUMBER THAN FOR THE WHOLE TEST A SWING AT ALL THAT TOGETHER WAS 248 STUDENTS. THAT ARE EXPERIENCING

INSTABILITY. >> THAT IS THE REASON I ASKED.

I KNOW WE'VE BEEN WORKING WITH SOME OF THE SCHOOL DISTRICT.

THE WORK NUMBERS THAT Y'ALL HAVE ARE PRETTY LOW.

THE OTHER THING THAT IS THE ONLY OTHER TWO POINTS ARE QUESTIONS THAT I HAD. THANK YOU FOR THAT BY THE WAY.

>> AND WIMBERLEY HAD THREE. AND ALL OF THEIRS WERE DOUBLED UP. JUST SO YOU KNOW.

WE DID GET THAT AND WE ARE WAITING.

IT'S A BIGGER REQUEST THAN WE ANTICIPATED AND THEN FINDING PEOPLE DURING THE SUMMER TRYING TO PUT THINGS TOGETHER.

I'M WAITING FOR THE FEEDBACK. WE WILL HAVE THOSE NUMBERS FROM DRIPPING SPRINGS AND SAN MARCUS.

WE JUST DO NOT HAVE THEM TODAY. >> THE OTHER TWO QUESTIONS THAT I HAVE, YOU SPECIFICALLY MENTIONED.

VETERAN HOMELESS. I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU AND I KNOW AND I WOULD BE SHOCKED IF THE COURT DID NOT SUPPORT YOU HELPING COORDINATE WITH OUR VETERAN SERVICES OFFICES.

>> JUDE WAS INVOLVED. JUDE WENT OUT ON THE COUCH.

>> HE PERSONALLY KNOWS THE TEST IS A GREAT NUMBER OF THESE

[00:35:03]

HOMELESS VETERANS FOR HIM. >> JUST KNOW THAT WHEN YOU SEE THE CHRONIC, WHEN WE IDENTIFIED WHEN JOSHUA GAVE THAT NUMBER ABOUT THE NUMBER THAT IDENTIFIED AS CHRONIC.

IT MEANS THAT THEY HAVE BEEN OUT FOR QUITE A WHILE.

THEY ARE THE MOST DIFFICULT TO WORK WITH.

SO, THEY ARE GOING TO BE THE MOST DIFFICULT TO HELP THEM UNDERSTAND IF THERE IS VA SERVICES FOR THEM.

YOU KNOW? AND TO GET THEM.

BUT, THAT DOES NOT MEAN THAT IT'S NOT WORKING TO DO THAT.

T JUST IT'S ONGOING PICK. >> THE LAST QUESTION I HAD WAS SINCE THE COUNT WAS DONE ON JANUARY 27, WE AS A COURT ACTUALLY FUNDED ERA FOR A NUMBER OF MONTHS.

WHICH IS EMERGENCY RENTAL ASSISTANCE.

SO, MY QUESTION IS BY DEFINITION, I THINK EVERY ONE OF THOSE INDIVIDUALS WOULD QUALIFY AS TRANSITIONAL HOUSING. BECAUSE THAT WAS NOT PERMANENT HOUSING. IT WAS BEING PAID FOR BY THE COUNTY. IT WAS BEING PAID AND SO Ã

DESPERATE. >> THE BUCKET OF MONEY THAT YOU GAVE WAS REALLY GOING TOWARDS HOME CENTER WAS KIND OF COORDINATING THOSE ASSESSMENTS. IT WAS DIFFERENT FROM THE OTHER BUCKET OF MONEYED THE REGULAR ERA MONEY THAT WAS FOR PEOPLE THAT WERE HOUSED. IT JUST NEEDED THAT MONTH OF ASSISTANCE TO GET THEM GOING AGAIN.

THAT WAS. THAT IS REALLY WHY YOU SEE A LARGER HOUSE NUMBER HERE FOR SHELTER.

SINCE YOU DON'T HAVE AN EMERGENCY SHELTER PER SE, THEY CAME THE CLOSEST TO BEING BETWEEN HOME CENTER AND TOGETHER FOR A CAUSE. THAT IS THE CLOSEST THING YOU HAVE TO EMERGENCY HOUSING. FOR THE NIGHT WERE TRANSITIONAL HOUSING. WHICH COULDFALL INTO THAT SHELTERED COUNT. SO, THAT MADE A HUGE DIFFERENCE. THAT COVID MONEY FOR IN THAT REGARD. LIKE YOU SAID, THAT IS BRIEF.

YOU KNOW? >> IT WAS A BRIEF PERIOD, BUT LOOKING AT THIS ÃIT'S IRONIC THAT YOUR DATE OF YOUR POINT AND DATE AND TIME FELL RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF WHEN WE HAD THE LARGEST SUBSCRIPTIONS TO THAT PROGRAM.

AND SO,, I'M KIND OF SHOCKED THAT YOUR HOUSE IS NOT MUCH HIGHER BECAUSE I WILL GUARANTEE THAT WE HAD MANY MORE THAT HUNDRED AND 70. ÃÃWE GOTTA GET SOME HARD NUMBERS TO COMPARE WITH IT. I KNEW THAT WE WERE RUNNING ONE OF YOUR HOTEL WILL SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

>> AGAIN, IF YOU GO TO TALK TO THEM.

EVEN IF NO ONE SPOKE WITH THEM, SAY THEY ARE SHELTERED AND SAY THEY DID NOT COME HOME THAT NIGHT.

THEY WERE WORKING THAT NIGHT. THEY WERE SLEEPING ALL DAY AND WORKING AT NIGHT. THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO BE ENCOUNTERED ON THAT POINT IN TIME.

THAT IS THE CONTENT GENERALLY ACROSS THE NATION.

IS THAT THE POINT IN TIME IS WHAT IT IS.T'S A SNAPSHOT.

SO, I WOULD NOT SAY THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT YOU ARE FUNDING FOR THAT. YOU KNOW? IT'S NOT BEING USED AND BEING FULLY USED.

I'M JUST SAYING THAT WE DID NOT GATHER THE INFORMATION.

>> I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT THE MONEY WAS ALL SPENT AND IT WAS

USED. >> YES.

I MEAN USED IN A WAY THAT YOU THINK THAT IT WAS BEING USED.

>> I THINK THERE IS PROBABLY TWICE THE AMOUNT THAT WE WERE

HOUSING AT THAT SPECIFIC POINT. >> THE NUMBER THAT WE NEED.

>> EXCUSE ME. >> THE NUMBER WE NEED TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT IS THE PEOPLE THAT DID NOT HAVE ANYTHING

BEYOND COVID ASSISTANCE. >> RIGHT.

>> THAT IS THE PREVENTION PART. THAT IS THE SUSTAINABLE

SOLUTION PART. >> THAT TAKES CITY AND COUNTY.

ALL THE CITIES AND COUNTIES WORKING TOGETHER IN A STRATEGIC PLAN. WHICH IS WHAT WE HOPE THE COUNTY WOULD BE PART OF THE CONVERSATION.

FOR THE KIND OF DISCUSSION. SO THAT WE CAN LOOK FOR THE BIGGER SOLUTIONS. HOUSING.

NOT AFFORDABLE HOUSING.BUT LOW INCOME HOUSING.

THERE IS A DIFFERENCE. >> I'M SO GLAD THAT WE HAVE

THIS CONVERSATION. >> AND IT'S NOT EASY.

>> GLAD TO SEE JUDE WAS INVOLVED.

IS THE COUNTY REPRESENTATIVE. >> IN THE COMMUNICABLE MUSICAL, THE HARD REASON? THIS JUST MADE NATIONAL NEWS.

ACTUALLY REACHED OUT TO JUDE AND MYSELF.

JUDE, I KNOW WE HAD THE VAN SITTING AT THE COURTHOUSE.

LET'S GO AND LOOK FOR FOLKS SO THAT THEY DON'T TURN.

SO THEY DON'T TURN LOLLIPOPS. I KNOW THAT SOUNDS INSENSITIVE, BUT IT DID SAY THAT. HE SAID YES SIR.

HE WAS RIGHT ON IT. AND WE GOT OUT AND WILL BE LOOKING UNDER BRIDGES. WE WERE LOOKING AT CAMPSITES

[00:40:03]

'M VERY FAMILIAR WITH WHAT YOU'VE DONE AND THAT TINY TINY WAY. AND I'M SO GLAD MOMENT AND THAT YOU HAVE SAID THAT JUDE WAS A PART OF THIS BECAUSE HE WAS PART OF OUR COUNTY PIECE. AND I THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HELP. AND IT'S VERY, VERY NECESSARY BECAUSE IT'S ALL OF US, RIGHT? HISTORY ÃÃIT'S JUST ONE OF THE LEADS OF THE STREET THAT WE ALL REPRESENT AS A COMMUNITY.

THANK YOU FOR ALL OF YOUR WORK. >> THERE'S ANOTHER POINT DATA AS YOU CAN SEE. WE OBVIOUSLY DON'T HAVE IT FOR HAYES COUNTY. WHEN YOU SEE WHAT IT COST TO HELP SOMEONE OFF THE STREET FOR TAXPAYERS VERSUS THE NUMBER THAT IT COST WHEN YOU'RE DOING ALL OF YOUR EMERGENCY SERVICES AND THINGS ONGOING.T'S HUGE. AND YOU KNOW THE JUDGE.> YOU'RE RIGHT. CARING FOR FOLKS BEFORE IT BECOMES AN EMERGENCY OR AN INMATE IN OUR JAIL IS ALWAYS TO

[F2. Update by Staff from the Office of General Counsel on the Hays County Animal Control Ordinance. BECERRA]

BE CHEAPER. >> THE PREVENTION WHERE YOU KEEP THEM OUT OF THE SYSTEM IS EVEN CHEAPER.

>> THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS PRESENTATION AND YOUR TIME.

>> THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. >> WOULD YOU PLEASE OPEN AGENDA

ITEM F ÃTWO. >> F ÃTWO.

UPDATE MY STUFF FROM THE OFFICE OF GENERAL COUNSEL ON THE HAYES COUNTY ANIMAL CONTROL ORDINANCE.

>> ASSISTANT GENERAL COUNSEL WITH THE OFFICE OF GENERAL COUNSEL. I DON'T MANY UPDATES FOR YOU, BUT I'LL GIVE YOU AN UPDATE FOR WHAT I DO HAVE.

WE ARE STILL WORKING THROUGH UPDATING AND DOING REVISIONS THROUGH THE ANIMAL CONTROL ORDINANCE.

COUNTY STAFF HAS BEEN WORKING WITH CONSULTANTS THAT WE HIRE.

ONLY TWO OF THE MISCELLANEOUS STUDY WORKING WITH LOCAL INDIVIDUALS JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE SEEING THIS FROM ALL ANGLES. I'M GONNA GIVE A QUICK OVERVIEW OF THE MAIN POINTS OF FOCUS THAT WE ARE DOING ON THIS MAIN ORDINANCE. IF THAT WOULD BE USEFUL.

SOME THINGS WERE WORKING ON RIGHT NOW, BIG NATURED ONE IS UPDATING ALL GOING THROUGH ALL THE LEGAL UPDATES AND PROVIDING ALL THE THINGS THAT HAVE CHANGED AND LEGISLATION REGARDING ANIMAL CONTROL. I THINK IT HAS BEEN NUMB TO LEGISLATION SESSIONS THAT WE'VE UPDATED SINCE WE UPDATED THE ORDINANCE. WE ARE GOING THROUGH AND UPDATING THOSE. WE ALSO ARE FOCUSING AND AND AND THE MORE RECENT LEGISLATION THAT WE HAVE TETHERING LEGISLATION OF DOGS OUTSIDE. THAT WAS BIG FOR THIS LEGISLATIVE SESSION WE'RE ADDING THAT IN.

WE ARE ALSO WORKING THROUGH HER CONSULTANTS TO INCLUDE BEST PRACTICES THAT THEY HAVE SEEN IN THIS AREA.

FROM NOT ONLY AROUND THE STATE, BUT THE COUNTRY AS WELL.

AND WE DO HAVE A FOCUS ON TRYING TO DIVERGE OBVIOUSLY ALL ANIMALS FROM SHELTERS. BUT THE FOCUS ON CAPS THAT HAS BEEN A LARGE PROBLEM. I DON'T WANT TO SAY OF RECENT.

IT'S BEEN A LARGE PROBLEM FOR QUITE SOME TIME.

WITH THINGS SUCH AS TRAP, NEUTER, RELEASE.

THAT SORT OF THING. IT'S STILL A WORK IN PROGRESS.

WE HAVE A LONG WAYS TO GO.

E ARE ALL WORKING AS A TEAM TO TRY TO GET A REALLY GOOD UPDATE TO OUR ANIMAL CONTROL ORDINANCE ON BOARD.

>> JUST TO CHIME IN REALLY QUICK.

>> TRAP AND RETURN. I'VE BEEN BROKE.

IT'S NOT RELEASE, TO RETURN. > I KNOW.

>> THANK YOU, I APPRECIATE IT. >> IT'S IMPORTANT.

IT'S A BIG DECISION PER. >> RETURN, THAT'S A GOOD POINT TO MAKE. THANK YOU JUDGE.

RETURN IS MORE ACCURATE AND IS MORE IN LINE WITH WHAT ACTUALLY WOULD HAPPEN UNDER THAT SORT OF PROGRAM.

IT WOULD BE RETURNED TO THE PROGRAM IN WHICH THEY WERE ORIGINALLY FOUND. NOT JUST RELEASED WHATEVER.

THANK YOU FOR THAT CLARIFICATION THAT IT'S IMPORTANT POINT TO MAKE. I CAN ANSWER ANY MORE SPECIFIC QUESTIONS THAT ANYBODY MIGHT HAVE.

BUT, THOSE ARE THE HIGH POINTS OF WHAT WE ARE TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH HERE.

O, I CAN ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS IF ANYBODY HAS ANY.

>> I REALLY APPRECIATE THE UPDATE AND I WAS THE ONE ASKING FOR.ECAUSE WE ALL ARE. VERY VISIBLE IN THE COMMUNITY AND FOLKS MAY NOT KNOW JORDAN IS WORKING FOR ÃÃON THIS.

ON THE SECOND FLOOR, THE HISTORIC COURTHOUSE.

IT'S JUST THAT WE HAVE BECOME THE PLACE THAT CATCHES ALL OF THE QUESTIONS. AND SO THAT I HAVE PUT THIS ON AS PEOPLE WERE ASKING IN A HIGHER FREQUENCY THAT FELT COMFORTABLE MAKING THEM FEEL PUSHED OFF.

THANK YOU FOR THE UPDATE. TELLING PEOPLE WHERE WE ARE AND

[00:45:02]

CALENDAR WISE? >> I DON'T WANT TO SPEAK FOR EVERYONE INVOLVED IN THIS. I CAN SAY THAT WE ARE STILL WORKING THROUGH A FEW LEGAL REVISIONS ARE STILL WORKING ON SOME BEST PRACTICES ON WHAT WILL DEFINITELY WORK FOR HAYES COUNTY. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE WHATEVER WE INCLUDE IS WORKABLE FOR US AND DOABLE FOR US.

WE STILL HAVE A LOT OF MEETINGS TO HAVE IN RELATION TO BEST PRACTICES AND HOW WE CARRY OUT CERTAIN THINGS.

SO, I'M HESITANT TO PUT A DEADLINE.

I DO NOT WANT TO RUSH ANYBODY. I WANT TO MAKE SURE ÃÃI ASSUME I SPEAK FOR EVERYBODY THAT IS INVOLVED IN THIS.

I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S A REALLY WELL ÃÃI DID NOT WANT TO RUSH ANYTHING. I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYTHING IN HERE WORKS WELL FOR EVERYONE.

AND CAN ACTUALLY BE ENFORCED AND COMPLIED WITH.

SO, I'M HESITANT, BUT ON THE TIMELINE ON THAT.

I WANT TO PUT A TIMELINE EITHER.

>> I JUST WANT TO SEE WHERE WE HAVE THESE THINGS IN THE HORIZON OR WHATEVER. NOT A TIMELINE.

>> I THINK I'M PROBABLY SAFE IN SAYING THAT IT'S GONNA BE AT THE AT LEAST A FEW MORE MONTHS. PROBABLY NOT WHAT ANYONE WANTS TO HEAR, BUT I KNOW WE ALL WANT TO MAKE SURE IT'S DONE RIGHT AND NOT RUSH. WOULD SAY PROBABLY A FEW

MORE MONTHS. >> JUST FOR THE VIEWING PUBLIC, WHEN JORDAN IS WORKING WITH IN OTHER ORGANIZATIONS AND MUNICIPALITIES AND OUR ADVISORS.

IS TO CREATE UNIFIED POLICY THAT WOULD BLANKET THE ENTIRE COUNTY SAID THAT THERE WILL NOT BE HODGEPODGE POLICIES AND PEOPLE ONE BLOCK AWAY HAVE ONE RULE AND THE OTHER BLOCK HOUSE ANOTHER. I'M NOT A FAN OF GOTCHA GOVERNMENT. AND SO, STRONG SUPPORT THE WORK THAT JORDAN IS DOING AND I THINK WE SHOULD ALL SUPPORT WHATEVER LEGISLATION HAS PASSED AS A STATE.

AND THAT TETHERING AND SHELTERING OF OUTDOOR DOGS.

I THINK THE UNIFORMITY IS SO IMPORTANT TO BE EVENHANDED GOVERNMENT IN ALL OF US. THAT IS WHY I AM SO GRATEFUL THAT THIS WORK IS BEING DONE. COMMISSIONERS, ANY QUESTIONS OR

COMMENTS? >> I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU FOR YOUR WORK. I KNOW WE'VE HAD SOME CONVERSATIONS ON THIS. AND LOOKING AT THE REPORT THAT WE'VE GOT ON A POSSIBLE NEW FACILITY.

YOU KNOW? THE ANIMALS THAT WOULD GO INTO THAT FACILITY WOULD PROBABLY COME DIRECTLY FROM OR BE SOMEHOW ASSOCIATED WITH WHATEVER ORDINANCE THAT WE HAD OR WHATEVER ORDINANCE WE END UP ADOPTING HERE.

I THINK THAT THE JUXTAPOSITION BETWEEN WHAT THE ORDINANCE DOES AND WHAT THE CAPACITY FOR THAT FACILITY WOULD BE IS THAT WE NEED TO LOOK AT THAT. I HOPE THAT IN THOSE MEETINGS THAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT THOSE THINGS.

BUT TO THE JUDGE'S POINT, I HAVE A REAL CONCERN OVER HAVING A HODGEPODGE OF ORDINANCES AMONGST THE DIFFERENT CITIES AND THE COUNTY. AND SO, TRYING TO COORDINATE THAT IS A LARGE LARGE UNDERTAKING.

GIVEN THE NUMBER OF MUNICIPALITIES THAT WE HAVE AND

I APPRECIATE YOU TAKING IT ON. >> I CANNOT TAKE CREDIT FOR IT

ALL. >> HUNDRED AND 10 PETS.

>> THAT IS ACCURATE. RIGHT ON.

>> COMMISSIONERS, ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS?

>> THANK YOU. >> JORDAN, AND IF YOU DON'T MIND, IN A MONTH OR SO, GIVE US ANOTHER RUNDOWN.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >> I APPRECIATE IT.

>> IT'S MY ITEM WITH COMMISSIONER INGALLS B. I'M MORE THAN HAPPY TO SHARE WITH YOU WITH THE GOOD WORK IN VICKI AND I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR WORK.

THESE ARE MOTORS THAT WERE ACTUALLY REQUESTED IN NEXT YEAR'S BUDGET. WE WERE ABLE TO FIND ADDITIONAL COMMON INTEREST BUDGET THAT WE CAN DEDICATE TOWARDS THAT.

GIVEN THE UPDATE AND MAINTENANCE THAT WE DID, I THINK IT WAS 2Ö MONTHS AGO WHEN WE MOVED ALL THE MAINTENANCE FOR THESE MOTORS IN-HOUSE.

INSTEAD OF HAVING A CONTRACT AMOUNT.

WE KNOW THE LEAD TIME ON THESE MOTORS.

WE ORDER THEM NOW, WE MIGHT GET THEM IN THE MIDDLE OF NEXT YEAR. RIGHT NOW, JUST AS AN EXAMPLE, WE HAVE ÃÃTHIS IS NOT THE COUNTY, BUT YES V6 HAS THREE COMMAND UNITS THAT THEY QUOTED 18 MONTHS AGO AND ARE STILL WAITING ON THEM. SO, WE THOUGHT IF WE COULD FIND THE FUNDING AND GET A JUMP ON SECURING THESE MOTORS, IT WOULD BE GOOD. THE OTHER GOOD THING IS THAT BECAUSE THEY ARE INCENTIVIZED, THE SAME TYPE OF CYCLE, WE HAVE ALL THE MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR EQUIPMENT THAT WE WOULD NEED TO DO UPDATED MAINTENANCE ON THEM IN-HOUSE WITH THE SHERIFF'S

DEPARTMENT. >> JUDGE?

>> YES-MAN.> AND WE HAVE SOME REPRESENTATIVES HERE IF WE HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS OR NEED ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FROM THEM. THIS IS SOMETHING FAIRLY NEW FOR THE PRECINCT 1 OFFICE. I KNOW THAT THEY GOT A MOTORCYCLE FROM THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE.

I THINK IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP SINCE THEY RECEIVED IT MAY BE.

'M NOT SURE THAT YOU MAY BE ABLE TO ANSWER THE.

MORE THAN I CAN. IT MIGHT BE HELPFUL IF YOU COULD COME UP AND MAYBE JUST EXPLAINED THAT CHIEF.

AND I KNOW JUST AS COMMISSIONER SMITH MENTIONED.

THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WAS REQUESTED IN THE BUDGET.

I THINK WE ALL KNOW WHAT WE WANT THE RATE TO BE AND IF WE WANT TO DO SOMETHING NOW. IT'S HELPFUL.

AS FAR AS YOUR PROGRAM, IF YOU CAN ENVISION THIS PATROL.

>> SURE. >> DEPUTY MIKE MARLOWE WITH THE PRECINCT CONSTABLE. CONSTABLE PETERSON'S OFFICE.

CURRENTLY WE DID AT INGALLS B. WE DID RECEIVE A MOTORCYCLE FROM THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT ABOUT THREE MONTHS AGO.

IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOR THE LAST THREE MONTHS.

WE'VE BEEN TRYING TO GET ON THE ROAD AS FAST AS POSSIBLE.

FORTUNATELY, WE WANT THE VEHICLE TO BE SAFE BEFORE WE PUT SOMEBODY ON IT.E DO HAVE ONE CERTIFIED MOTORCYCLE OFFICER.ND WE ARE HOPING TO SEND ANOTHER ONE.

THIS MOTORCYCLE WILL ALLOW US TO DO THAT.

WE CURRENTLY HAVE A 2000 1500 THAT WAS GIVEN TO US FROM THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT. IT WAS TRANSFERRED OVER.

AND OF COURSE, IT NEEDED MAINTENANCE.

SO, IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP SINCE.

>> THANK YOU CHIEF. >> THE OTHER THING I WOULD SAY.

TO THE CHIEF POINT, WE ACTUALLY LOOK AT THIS AS A CORE OF SEVERAL TIMES. THE SHERIFF DEPARTMENT DOES NOT HAVE A USE FOR IT RIGHT NOW. JUST STAFFING ISSUES, LACK OF OFFICERS WHO ARE QUALIFIED ON THE PROBLEM THAT WE HAVE WITH THOSE. AND THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT HAS BEEN VERY GENEROUS. AND OFFERING THOSE TO ALL THE CONSTABLES THAT THEY WANT. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THOSE ÃÃI THINK THE CHIEF DID A GOOD JOB OF EXPLAINING IT.

THOSE MOTORS, SOME OF THEM HAVE BEEN IN USE FOR QUITE SOME TIME. AND THE ONES THAT HAVE BEEN IN USE, YOU KNOW, THE LIFECYCLE ON THESE THINGS IS VERY SHORT IN THE VEHICLE WORLD COMPARED TO THE REST OF THE UNITS THAT WE PUT ON THE STREET. THE FACT IS THAT THOSE MOTORCYCLES ÃÃTHEY HAVE EXCEEDED, YOU KNOW, EXCEEDED THE NEED FOR ACCELERATION AND SHORT BURST.

AND THE BREAKING ON THEM ÃÃ THERE IS A REASON THAT WE BUY MORE BREAKS AND MORE TIRES FOR THOSE THINGS THAN ANYTHING ELSE THAT WE HAVE IN OUR FLEET. I WILL TELL YOU THAT AS THE JUDGE HAS BEEN SUPPORTIVE OF THOSE SINCE WE GOT HERE.

[00:55:02]

BECAUSE WE ALL WANT TO KEEP THE TAX RATE AS LOW AS POSSIBLE IN THE UPCOMING BUDGET. THAT IS THE REASON WHY RICHARD CHOSE TO GIVE IT TO YOU THIS WEEK.

>> THANK YOU COMMISSIONER. YOU ARE RIGHT.

I'M A HUGE SUPPORTER OF BOATERS AND EVERYTHING TO GET THE SUPPORT MOTORS, I'M ALL ABOUT IT.

I'M ALL ABOUT EFFICIENCIES AND THAT'S THE MOST EFFICIENT WAY FOR US OUT THERE PATROLLING. SO, A FEW QUESTIONS.

I SUPPORT. 100 PERCENT IN THEORY.

BUT, I JUST WANT JUSTIFICATION STILL AND I HAVE NOT HEARD IT YET. CHIEFLY, WHAT IS THE DUTY OF YOUR CONSTABLE'S OFFICE?S IT TO SERVE PAPERS?

>> OUR PROGRAM FOR THE WAY THAT WE FORESEE THINGS GOING IS OUR MOTOR UNITS WILL DO EVERYTHING. THEY WILL DO THE ASSIGNMENTS THAT THEY WERE GIVEN NOW AS FAR AS SERVING SIMILAR PROCESS.

THEY WILL WORK SCHOOL ZONES. THEY WILL ALSO ASSESS WITH FUNERAL ESCORTS, WHICH TOOK ORDINANCE.

WHICH WAS VERY HELPFUL IN THOSE KINDS OF THINGS.

SO, AND THEY ARE ALSO GOING TO COVER COURT.

SO, YES. DEPUTIES DO EVERYTHING.

AS YOU KNOW, WE'RE SHORTHANDED. AND SO, EVERYTHING WE PULLED FROM EVERYWHERE IS TO MAKE SURE ALL OF OUR DUTIES AND

ASSIGNMENTS ARE COVERED. >> AND THANK YOU FOR THAT.

WANT TO MAKE SURE MOVING FORWARD THAT WE RECORD HELP IN ONE DEPARTMENT OR I COULD SAY IN THIS CASE, WITH THE CASE AND POINT. PREVENT A DEPARTMENT FROM TRANSFERRING SOMETHING THAT IS NOT USABLE AND THEN ULTIMATELY I SEE IT NOW IS ALMOST FORCING A BRAND-NEW PURCHASE BECAUSE IT WAS TRANSFERRED ON PAPER, BUT WAS NEVER USED.

THEY CAN EMBRACE IT. SO, I WOULD RATHER US, BECAUSE WE CREATED AN AGENDA ITEM TO SELL THINGS OFF AN OPTION.

AND SO, IF THIS VEHICLE WAS TRANSFERRED FROM THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE OVER TO THE CONSTABLES OFFICE, IT HAS NEVER LEFT THE SHOP. AT THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE.

I WOULD CONSIDER THAT, NOT ONLY A TRANSFER, BUT A BAD CALL ON MY PART AS WELL. ONE OF FIVE.ND I WOULD ASK THAT INSTEAD OF THESE OLD BIKES BEING TRANSFERRED AROUND TO CREATE WAYS FOR NEW BIKES. UST BY THE NEW BIKES AND SELL THE OLD STUFF THAT WE KNOW THAT WE ARE NOT GOING TO USE BECAUSE IT'S BEYOND ITS LIFE.

THINK WE ARE BEING ACCIDENTALLY AND IN MOST CASES, IN MY OPINION. I THINK WE ARE BEING DECEPTIVE TO OURSELVES AND THE PEOPLE TO TRANSFER USELESS THINGS TO THEM LATER COME BACK AND BUY NEW ONES.

I WOULD RATHER JUST BUY A NEW ONE.

>> IF I MAY. >> OUR INTENT WITH THIS OLDER BIKE IS TO USE IT FOR A NEW OFFICER TO BE TRAINED.

BECAUSE MY UNDERSTANDING OF THE TRAINING, WHICH I'VE NEVER GONE THROUGH IS THAT THEY ARE PRETTY ROUGH ON HIS BIKE.

THEY DROPPED THEM AT LOW SPEEDS CAUSING MINOR DAMAGE TO THESE BIKES. WHICH I BELIEVE THAT WE WOULD ALL THINK IT WOULD BE BETTER TO DO IT WITH AN OLDER BIKE THAT HAS BEEN TRANSFERRED. THAT IS OUR INTENT.

I CANNOT SPEAK FOR EVERYONE ELSE.

THAT IS OUR INTENT. IS TO SEND SOMEBODY ELSE TO TRAIN. THEREFORE WE WILL HAVE TWO

MOTOR UNITS. >> MAY I ASK.

PARAGRAPH CHIEF? THE

[INDISCERNIBLE] >> IT IS.

IT WAS AT HONDA. THEY REPAIRED IT.

IT TOOK THEM THREE MONTHS TO GET ATTIRE IN AND THEY DID THE OIL CHANGE AND A FEW OTHER MINOR THINGS.

IT IS CURRENTLY AT THE SIGN SHOP CURRENTLY READY TO BE PICKED UP. WE PLAN TO HAVE THE VEHICLE ON

THE ROAD PROBABLY BY NEXT WEEK. >> AND THE REASON I ASK THAT JUDGE IS BECAUSE AT SOME POINT, MAYBE TO YOUR POINT, WE HAVE TO DETERMINE WHEN WE NEED TO CUT OUR LOSSES, RIGHT? WE DO NOT WANT TO CONTINUE TO SPEND A LOT OF MONEY ON SOMETHING THAT MAY NOT BE VIABLE AND SO, I KNOW THAT WE ARE WATCHING THAT. WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?

>> CURRENTLY, OUR VEHICLE MAINTENANCE SHOP ONLY WORKS ON HARLEYS. AND OF COURSE, THIS ONE IS A

HONDA. >> I AM ÃÃMY AIM IS TO BE AS PREDICTABLE AS POSSIBLE AND AS WITH THE SHELTER TO BE UNIFORM AND CONSISTENT, SO THIS AGENDA ITEM AND I UNDERSTOOD EXACTLY WHY THEY WANTED TO BE ALL HARLEYS.

I'VE NO PROBLEM WITH THAT PART. THE LAST LEG OF THE JOURNEY AND MY QUESTION IS THROUGH JUSTIFICATION ONE MORE TIME.

SUPPORT OF COURSE MY RECORD IS AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE TO SUPPORT. BUT WE STILL HAVE TO BE GOOD PHYSICAL STEWARDS. FOUR YEARS AGO, YOU ARE THE CHIEF OF THIS DEPARTMENT. FOUR YEARS AGO, I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF YOU COULD EITHER SPEAK TO IT OR IF YOU ARE NOT KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT IT. MAYBE SHARE WITH ME MOVING FORWARD. HOWEVER YOU GUYS DID THE PRESENTATION, I REALLY LOVED IT.

HOW MANY OFFICERS YOU HAVE AND HOW PRODUCTIVE YOU ARE WITH THEM. AND A SNAPSHOT TO TODAY.

HOW MANY OFFICES HAVE YOU HAD AND HOW PRODUCTIVE ARE YOU WITH THEM TODAY? I VIEW AS A PHYSICAL STEWARD.

[01:00:02]

JUST SAY THIS IS A GOOD DECISION AND IT'S NOT JUST BUILDING ARMIES OF WASTE POTENTIALLY.

IT WILL ALLOW ME TO DEFEND MY COAT.

IF I CAN GET FROM YOU A HEADCOUNT OF LAKE PER PERSON EFFECTIVENESS OR PRODUCTIVITY IN SOME TYPE OF WAY THAT YOU THINK MAKES SENSE FOR THE PUBLIC.

DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING IN THAT SPACE?

>> CURRENTLY, IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN, FOUR YEARS AGO WE PROBABLY HAD ABOUT EIGHT OFFICERS.

AND NOW CURRENTLY WE HAVE 12. THAT IS TWO RESERVES AND 10

PFULL-TIME. >> WE ARE STRUGGLING WITH OUR OFFICE AS FAR AS MAKING SURE THAT EVERYTHING IS COVERED.

WE DO HAVE SIX PERCENT OF ALL CIVIL PROCESSES IN HAYNES COUNTY. ALTHOUGH THE MOTORCYCLE WOULD HELP BE A LITTLE MORE COST-EFFICIENT AS OPPOSED TO HAVING A VEHICLE WHEN WE HAVE A MOTOR UNIT DEVELOPING PROCESS ARE CIVIL PROCESS. SO, I'M NOT EXACTLY SURE WHERE YOU WOULD LIKE TO SEE OR WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR.

SO, FIGHTING TO GET BACK WITH YOU, I WOULD BE MORE THAN HAPPY

TO. >> CHIEF, I JUST NEED TO DEFEND IT. BECAUSE YOU'VE EIGHT -12.

AND I THINK THE COMMUNITY WOULD LOVE TO SEE.

IT IS MY BELIEF BASED ON MY INTERACTIONS.

BECAUSE I SEE THIS COUNTYWIDE AS YOU JUST MENTIONED.

I WOULD JUST LIKE TO SEE ÃÃ HERE'S WHAT WE'RE DOING WITH IT. HERE'S WHAT WE'RE DOING WITH 12. KEEP SUPPORTING US.

YOU CAN EMAIL ME AND BREAKOUT AND I CAN SHOW THE PUBLIC.

>> I WILL GO ON TO SAY THAT YOU HAVE THREE COUNTY COURT LAWS.

YOU HAVE TWO JP COURTS.HOSE HAVE TO BE GOVERNED AS WELL.

IT TO DO AND INSTITUTIONAL CORE AND COMMISSIONERS COURT.

THOSE COURTS ALONE HAVE A LOT OF MANPOWER.

WHAT YOU MAY NOT REALIZE AS WELL IS THAT WE ARE STILL DOING TRANSPORTS FROM THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT.

THOSE TAKE ANYWHERE FROM AN HOUR TO TWO HOURS TO COMPLETE A TRANSPORT AND GET THEM IN AND GET THEM PROCESSED.O, WE'RE STILL DOING IT A LOT. AND IN THE PAST 12 MONTHS, WE'VE DONE 124 TRANSPORTS. AND IF YOU LOOK AT THAT MAN HOURS ÃÃTHAT IS A LOT OF TIME.

SO, YES. OUR OFFICE IS CONSTANTLY BUSY.

WITH 60 PERCENT OF CIVIL PROCESS.

WE KEEP BUSY. >> PRESENT ONE IS A BUSY OFFICE. I GET IT.

>> JUDGE,. >> I WANT YOU TO HELP ME DEFEND

THE DECISION. >> JUDGE, THE OTHER THING THAT I WOULD MENTION AND YOU KNOW, WE'RE GONNA HAVE OUR BUDGET WORKSHOP OVER THE NEXT COUPLE WEEKS.

>> YES. IN THE BUDGET BOOK THAT YOU ARE PRESENTED WITH LAST WEEK THAT Ã ÃTHERE IS ACTUALLY A GREAT DOCUMENT IN THEIR FROM THE CONSTABLE PRECINCT 1 FROM THE ONE OFFICE. THE KIND OF OUTLINES THEIR DUTY ON WHAT THE OVERALL OVERALL NEEDS ARE.

THAT IS ON PAGE 64 OF THE DOCKET.

OR STARTS ON PAGE 63 IN THE DOCUMENT THAT YOU HAVE.

AND I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO LOOK AT THAT.

BECAUSE THE CURRENT CHAIN OF COMMAND AND WITH THE PROPOSED CHAIN OF COMMAND IS. I'M SURE WHEN CONSTABLE PEARSON COMES FOR HIS BUDGET PRESENTATION ÃÃIF YOU WANT THE NUMBERS THAT AND SIMILAR CHART FOR FOUR YEARS AGO, I'M SURE I'M SPEAKING FOR HIM. I'M SURE YOU CAN INCREASE THAT,

CAN'T YOU? >> AND SHE CAN SHARE.

>> IS THAT MY HELP IN YOUR DECISION?

>> I READ THAT I'VE SAID IN YOUR PREVIOUS PRESENTATIONS.

I'M GOOD RECALL EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS IN THIS COURTROOM.

I WOULD STILL LIKE THE MODERN COMPARISON AND I WOULD APPRECIATE THAT. THANK YOU SIR.

>> MY WIFE'S SPOKE EARLIER ABOUT THE DEVELOPMENTS THAT ARE GOING IN AND HOW MUCH WATER THERE GOING TO BE TAKING UP.

I JUST HAD SOME FIGURES ON MY CONCERN WAS WHEN THEY PULL THE WATER OUT OF THE WELL ÃÃTHEY CAN HAVE THE SOFT IN THE WATER WITH SALT. UNTIL WE ARE TALKING WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD DEPENDING ON HOW DEEP THEIR WELL IS.F ABOUT 200 POUNDS OF SALT TODAY. MY WILL IS 280 FEET DEEP.

THE WATER IS ROTTEN. BUT HAVE A LARGE VOLUME OF WATER THAT I CAN DRAW FROM. MY WIFE AND I ONLY USE ABOUT 50 AND 70 GALLONS OF WATER PER DAY FOR LIVESTOCK AND THAT.

AND SO, THERE GOING TO BE USING A LOT MORE WATER.

SO, I'M REALLY CONCERNED. WHAT ARE THEY GONNA DO WITH ALL THIS SALT THAT AFTER IT'S BEEN USED? THE RECHARGE. HER WE GOING TO DISPOSE OF IT? MOST PEOPLE JUST PUT IT IN THE DRAIN OR IN OUR CASE, IT'S JUST DUMPED ON THE GROUND. THAT'S ALL GOT TO OFFER.

>> THANK YOU. >> THAT IS REALLY A CONCERN.

LARGE VOLUMES OF WATER AND SALT.

BECAUSE YOU KNOW? THE CATHOLIC AND THAT AND WHAT THEY WANT FOR FISHING AND THE SWIMMING POOLS AND THAT.

THEY'RE GOING TO BE USING A LOT OF SALT.

>> THANK YOU JUDGE. AND COMMISSIONERS.

I AM HERE ALSO BECAUSE I LIVE IN WIMBERLEY.

INCLUDING A SWIMMING POOL. A FISHING POND, ALL OF THE AMENITIES THAT THEY ARE OFFERING.

AND THIS IS NOT MY FIRST ORDER WAR THAT I FOUGHT.

I FOUGHT THE EP ELECTRO PURIFICATION.

WHEN THEY TRIED TO COME IN AND SALT WATER TO KYLE AND TAKE WATER OUT OF OUR WATER DISTRICT.

AND NOW YOU KNOW THAT THE EP IS NOW DEFUNCT.

BECAUSE THEY FOUND WATER AND THEN THEY JUST DEFEND WATER AND WENT AHEAD AND SOLD. FROM PETER TO KYLE.

SO, I STRONGLY URGE YOU TO VOTE AGAINST THIS.

IT IS NOT IN THE BEST INTEREST OF WIMBERLEY.

I HAVE LIVED IN WIMBERLEY FOR ALMOST 40 YEARS.

AND I AM ON WELL ALSO. AS IS EVERYBODY IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD. I LIVE ON LOW MAN MOUNTAIN ROAD. AS HE TURNED ON OLD OAKS, YOU GET A LOAN MAN AND OLD OAKS IS THE DIVISION THAT THIS RV PARK THAT IS RIGHT ACROSS FROM WHERE YOU TURN IN.

AND OUR AQUIFER. I DO NOT BELIEVE CAN SUSTAIN THIS. YOU HAVE BIGGER STRUGGLES GOING DOWN INTO THESE POOLS. IT'S GOING TO BE DEPLETING THE AREA. AND WE ARE IN A DROUGHT NOW.

JACOB'S WELL HAS GONE DRY. IT IS NOT RUNNING.

BLUE HOLE IS CLOSED BECAUSE OF THE BACTERIA COUNT.

NOBODY WANTS TO GET INTO THE BLANCO BECAUSE IT IS SO NASTY LOOKING. BECAUSE THERE IS NO WATER IN IT. AND IF YOU HAVE EVER COME TO MARKET DAYS ARE TRY TO GET THROUGH WIMBERLEY ON MARKET DAYS, PEOPLE COME THERE BECAUSE IT'S A UNIQUE LITTLE TOWN THAT OFFERS SHOPS, IT OFFERS WATER. WELL, WE WILL HAVE WATER RIGHT NOW. WE NEED TO GET INTO IT TO COOL OFF.

F YOU LET THIS COME IN AND THE OTHER ONE THAT'S GONNA GO ON THE BACKSIDE, I THINK YOU'RE JUST GOING TO BE REALLY

[01:15:04]

AND IT'S JUST GOING TO BE ANOTHER BIG CITY.

AND SHOP OWNERS ARE GOING TO BE HURT.

AND RESTAURANTS AND PEOPLE WILL QUIT COMING BECAUSE IT WILL JUST BE ANOTHER ÃTHIS SPRINGS OF KYLE OR BEULAH OR SPEAK THAT SUBDIVISIONS. AND I KNOW THAT WE ARE RIGHT FOR THE PICKING. IS THAT MY TIME?

>> YES. >> IF YOU DISCLOSE OFFER YOUR

THOUGHTS? >> AND WE ARE RIGHT FOR THE PICKING. THERE ARE A LOT OF RANCHES FOR HOMEOWNERS THAT PASSED AWAY. AND THE KIDS ARE DIVIDING UP THE PROPERTY THAT THEY DON'T WANT TO DEAL WITH IT.

I PLEAD WITH YOU. PLEASE KEEP WIMBERLEY ÃTHIS WIMBERLEY AND PRESERVE OUR WATER.> BEAUTIFUL AND THANK

YOU. >> THANK YOU.

>> THANK YOU. >> JUDGE, KIDS GET

CLARIFICATION? >> YES.

>> IS ALL-IMPORTANT. >> LET ME CLARIFY.

SINCE WE ARE ON THE SUBDIVISION I PAID I WILL TRY TO SPEAK GENERALLY ON THE SUBDIVISION PROCESS.

UNFORTUNATELY, WE ARE NOT POSTED TO DISCUSS THE ISSUE THAT YOU ALL HAVE IN THE ORIGINAL PUBLIC, IS THE ABILITY FOR CITIZENS TO MAKE PUBLIC COMMENTS THAT THE COURT IS NOT POSTED TO ACT ON, WHICH ALLOWS THE GENERAL PUBLIC TO HEAR THIS. WE CONNECT INTO A DISCUSSION ON THOSE BECAUSE YOU KNOW ALLOWED TO DISCUSS SOMETHING THAT IS NOT POSTED WITH A CERTAIN NOTICE ON THIS AGENDA.

WE CANNOT DELIVER ON ANY TOPICS OF THE COUNTY THAT ARE NOT POSTED FOR 72 HOURS IN ADVANCE, WHICH IS ON OUR AGENDA.

BECAUSE OF THAT I'M GOING TO ADDRESS THE SPECIFIC SUBJECT THAT THIS ITEM IS ON, BUT THE SPECIFIC SUBDIVISION ITEM THAT THE PROCESS IS ON. LIKE YOU SEE ON THIS ITEM, THIS ITEM IS ABOUT A PRELIMINARY PLAN FOR SUBDIVISION, WHICH HAPPENS TO BE UNFIT TO YOU. WHICH IS ON CLOSER TO THE SPRINGS RIGHT THERE. IN THIS CASE, THERE IS A VERY FORMAL PROCESS WHERE THE SUBDIVISION OF PROPERTY IN TEXAS THAT IS NOT IN AN INCORPORATED AREA.

SO, OUT OF THE CITY LIMITS, IF SOMEBODY WANTS TO SUBDIVIDE PROPERTY IN THE COUNTY, THERE IS A VERY FORMAL STATUTORILY DESIGN PROCESS FOR THAT SUBDIVISION TO TAKE PLACE.

AND SO, THIS ITEM THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT RIGHT NOW IS IN A STEP OF THAT PROCESS.

ND OUR RESPONSIBILITY IS REALLY ADMINISTRATIVE.

WHEN IT COMES TO THE SUBDIVISION OF LAND.

WE DO NOT GET TO DECIDE WHETHER WE LIKE SOMETHING OR NOT.

WE DO NOT GET TO DECIDE YES OR NOT BASED UPON THE USE OF THE PROPERTY. OR ANYTHING ELSE.

WE CAN ONLY MAKE DECISIONS ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT THAT THEY FOLLOW THE RULES. THUS THE STATE AND COUNTY RULES. THIS PARTICULAR PROCESS, THE SUBDIVISION HAS BEEN CREATED. THEY FOLLOW THE RULES.

WE WILL THEN BE ASKED TO APPROVE.

IN THE CASE THAT SOMETHING IS NOT A FORMAL SUBDIVISION.

A LIEN IS NOT ACTUALLY BEING SUBDIVIDED.

IT IS SOMEBODY WHO'S GOING TO DEVELOP ON A PIECE OF PROPERTY WITHOUT CREATING CLOCKS OR OTHER SUBDIVISIONS OF LAND.

THEN OUR ROLE IN APPROVAL IS BASED UPON JUST A FEW FACTORS.

ONE IS WASTEWATER. SO, AS LONG AS THEY ARE PRODUCING LESS THAN 5000 GALLONS PER DAY PER TRACT OF WASTEWATER, THAT SYSTEM IS PERMITTED BY THE COUNTY.

SO, WE HAVE STAFF IN THE COUNTY THAT REFUSES PERMITS FOR THE WASTEWATER. THEY ARE DESIGNED BY ENGINEERS.

THERE IS USUALLY COMMENTS BACK AND FORTH TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY ARE MET WITH THE STATE AND COUNTY RULES.

THAT IS ONE OF OUR AUTHORITIES THAT WE HAVE.

WE LOOK AT TO DENY THE WASTEWATER PERMIT JUST IN CASE WE DON'T WITH THE DEPARTMENT. OR WE DON'T THINK THE DEVELOPMENT IS A GOOD FIT BECAUSE WE ARE PROHIBITED BY STATE LAW FOR MAKING DECISION FROM BASED ON USE OF THE PROPERTY. THAT IS NOT SOMEBODY WHO WOULD WANT AN RV PARKED ACROSS THE FENCE FROM ME.

THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING I WOULD BE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT FOR MANY REASONS. HOWEVER, THE COUNTY LEVEL, THE COUNTY CANNOT MAKE A DECISION ON A PERMIT BASED UPON THE USE OF THE PROPERTY THAT WE ARE PERMITTED BY STATE LAW FROM DOING THAT. THAT WASTEWATER IS ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE PERMIT. ANOTHER ISSUE THAT WE REGULATE AS THE FLOODPLAIN. SO, DEVELOPMENT IN THE FLOODPLAIN THE COUNTY. HAS RULES ASSOCIATED WITH THAT.

FROM THE MOST SIMPLE PERMIT TO THE COUNTY WOULD BE IF YOU CANNOT BUILD A STRUCTURE. IF THE KIND OF GHETTO COUNTY PERMITTED AND THE MAIN REASON IS TO ENSURE THAT IT'S NOT A FLOODPLAIN.

T'S CALLED A CLASS A PERMIT. IT'S VERY SIMPLE PERMIT.

IF YOU ARE DEVELOPING IN THE FLOODPLAIN OR SOMETHING THAT

[01:20:01]

IN MOST CASES, WE ARE DETERMINING THAT YOU ARE NOT DEVELOPING IN A FLOODPLAIN. WE ALSO PERMIT ACCESS TO THE COUNTY ROAD.SO, SOMEBODY'S GOING TO DEVELOP A PIECE OF PROPERTY IN THE COUNTY AND THEY NEED ACCESS TO A COUNTY ROAD Ã ÃWE ARE THE ENTITY THAT PERMITS THE ACCESS.

IN THE COUNTY OFTEN CASES IT'S A STATE ROAD IN THE STATE PERMITS ACCESS UNLIKE GRANTS ROAD 723 OR 25.

THE STATE WOULD PERMIT THE ACCESS.

THOSE ARE THE THREE MAIN AREAS OF OUR AUTHORITY OUTSIDE OF THIS FORMAL SUBDIVISION PROCESS.

WHICH THIS ITEM IS REGARDING. AND THEN ALSO COMMISSIONER SMITH JUST MENTIONED A FIRE CODE.

OUTSIDE OF THAT DEVELOPMENT PROCESS.

ALSO OUR FIRE MARSHAL'S OFFICE ENFORCES THE FIRE CODE AND THE COUNTY HAS HAD A FIRE CODE FOR TWO YEARS?

>> NOVEMBER 2020. >> YES.

THEY'VE HAD A FIRE CODE AND SOME AREAS OF THE FIRE CODE PRIOR TO THAT. EVERY AREA IN THE COUNTY MUNICIPALITIES HAS BARCODES OUTSIDE OF THE MUNICIPALITY FIRE CODE. THAT FIRE CODE IS ALSO ENFORCED.

ND THEN AN ISSUE THAT I NOTICED THAT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT FOR US, AND WESTERN HAYS COUNTY.

GROUNDWATER. WE TECHNICALLY DO NOT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE PERMITTING OR THE USE OF GROUNDWATER. WE DO HAVE A MINIMUM LOT SIZE FOR MORE THAN FIVE ACRES AND FIVE LOT SUBDIVISIONS OF SIX ACRES OR LESS THAT WAS IMPLEMENTED INTO THE COUNTY BACK IN 2010 I BELIEVE. THAT WE USED AS PART OF THE WATER CODE. THE STATE WATER CODE THAT ALLOWED US ÃÃIT'S A VERY GREAT LANGUAGE TO CONSIDER WATER AVAILABILITY IN THE SUBDIVISION OF LAND.

AND SO, WE HAVE OVER THE GRANT MANAGER WHAT APPEARED WE HAVE A SIX ACRE LOT SIZE. IF SOMEBODY IS GOING TO SUBDIVIDE LIKE THIS ITEM HERE'S TO SUBDIVIDED SOMEBODY'S GONNA SUBDIVIDE SOMETHING THAT IS IN THE MANAGEMENT AREA.

WHICH IS A STATE DEFINED AREA. THEN WE IMPOSE OUR SIX ACRE MINIMUM LOT SIZE. AND THAT ROLE CAME ABOUT TO TRY TO UNDERSTAND THAT IF THE COUNTY CONTINUED TO DEVELOP AND TWO OR THREE ACRE LOT SIZES. THAT IS A WELL PER SITE.

HOW DO WE SPREAD THOSE WELLS OUT LITTLE BIT SO THERE'S NOT QUITE ÃÃTHAT LOT SIZE COMES INTO PLAY.

PFROM THE MOST PART FROM GROUNDWATER PERSPECTIVE, THAT IS WHERE OUR AUTHORITY ENDS. WE DO REQUIRE WATER AVAILABILITY STUDIES TO BE DONE.ND THOSE ARE DONE BY ENGINEERS WITH MORE OR LESS SHOW THAT THERE IS WATER THERE UNDERGROUND FOR THEM TO USE. IT DOES NOT GET INTO LONG-TERM SUSTAINABILITY ISSUES, WHICH WE ARE ALL CONCERNED ABOUT.

AGAIN, THAT IS WHERE IN TEXAS UNDERGROUND CONSERVATION IN TEXAS WILL COME INTO PLAY. THEY ARE THE ONES THAT HAVE TO FOLLOW THE RULES IN THE STATE IS SET FOR THEM ON HOW TO PERMIT OR NOT PERMIT WELLS IN THE HAYES TRAINING GROUND WHERE THE CONSERVATION TRAINING GROUND AREA.

IT DOESN'T EXEMPT WELL. IF YOU OWN A PIECE OF PROPERTY, YOU CAN GO TO THE DISTRICT, HE JUST HAD TO GET PERMIT TO DRILL THE WELL. IT IS NOT PERMITTED.

YOU DON'T PAY FOR THE WATER OR ANYTHING ELSE.

HAT IS HOW THAT WORKS IN THAT SYSTEM.

THE COMMERCIAL WELL, THEN THEY HAVE THE PERMIT THE WELL.

THEN WE HAVE SEEN THAT. WE HAVE SEEN IT RECENTLY WITH SOME PROJECTS THAT THE DISTRICT HAS PERMITTED A COMMERCIAL WELL. I KNOW THEY HAD A MEETING LAST WEEK TO DISCUSS THAT SIGN. THERE HOW TO GET THE STATE LAW, WHICH IS VERY LITTLE WIGGLE ROOM FOR THEM.

THEY DON'T GET TO DECIDE WHETHER OR NOT THEY GONNA PERMIT WATER BASED ON THE USE OR WHETHER THEY BELIEVE IT'S GOOD OR NOT FOR THE COMMUNITY. IF THE FOLLOW THE LAW AND IF THE WATER IS THERE, THEY THE PERMIT FOR THE USE OF THAT WATER. SO, THEY ARE VERY BRACKETED BY THE LAW AS FAR AS WHAT TYPE OF DISCRETION THEY CAN USE IN THE MANAGEMENT OVERALL OF GROUNDWATER.

SO I'M TRYING NOT TO GET TOO OFF THE TRACK FROM THE ITEM THAT WE ARE ON JUST IN GENERAL JUST THE SUBDIVISION PROCESS AND THE PERMITTING PROCESS. WHERE THE COUNTY'S AUTHORITY COMES INTO PLAY. IT HAS BEEN DEBATED SINCE I'VE BEEN AT THE COUNTY SINCE 2011. AT THE LEGISLATURE.

EVERY OTHER YEAR ABOUT COUNTY AUTHORITY.

AND WHAT CAN BE DONE TO GIVE COUNTIES THE ABILITY TO HAVE AND TO USE MORE SCIENCE THAT WE HAVE TO MAKE THE DECISIONS THAT WILL RESULT IN US BEING ABLE TO ENJOY THE PLACE THAT WE LOVE SO MUCH FOR YEARS TO COME. THE HAS GONE NOWHERE.

EVERY SESSION IN OUR LEGISLATURE TO GIVE COUNTIES THE STEPS OF AUTHORITIES TO HAVE BETTER REGULATION OF GROWTH. ESPECIALLY IN A VERY RAPIDLY GROWING AREA. I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE ARE PROBABLY COUNTIES IN TEXAS WHERE IT'S NOT THAT BIG OF A DEAL. THEY WILL SEE SOMETHING LIKE THIS EVERY YEAR ONE AND HAYS COUNTY RIGHT NOW WE'RE SEEING THESE ALL THE TIME.HAT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT US AND I SAY WHEN PEOPLE ASK WHAT THEY CAN DO ABOUT THESE UPDATES BESIDES COMMUNICATION WITH US. AS WE PERMIT THESE PROJECTS.

BUT THE REAL LONG-TERM GOAL WOULD BE TO DEFINE SOME REASONABLE WAY TO ALLOW THESE FAST-GROWING UNINCORPORATED

[01:25:03]

SO, TRYING TO DANCE AROUND THAT POSTING ISSUE.

>> YOU DID A GOOD JOB OF IT. >> WE ARE ALWAYS WILLING MARCUS WITH CHECK ON HER DEVELOPMENTS IN THE DEPARTMENT IS ALWAYS WILLING TO ANSWER QUESTIONS ABOUT OUR AUTHORITIES AND STATE OF PERMITTING ON THESE DIFFERENT TYPE OF PROJECTS FOR THE EXIT ARE IN THE PROCESS OF THOSE PERMITS.

WHICH IT COULD BE THE WASTEWATER SYSTEM MORE THAN LIKELY AND THEN ALSO OUR FIRE MARSHALS ON THE CODE.

>> BEAUTIFUL AND THANK YOU. WE HAVE ONE MORE WRITTEN,

COULD. >> I DO WANT TO CLARIFY FOR ANYBODY IN THE PUBLIC WHO DID NOT FOLLOW COMPLETELY THAT THE RV PARK IS NOT ON THE AGENDA. THIS WEEK.

AND IT'S ANOTHER SUBDIVISION THAN THE ONE WE ARE DISCUSSING NJ ONE. SO, THE J ONE THAT HAS TO DO

WITH FITS YOU HAVE, ABOUT IT. >> PLEASE READ ABOUT IT.

>> THIS IS FROM MARK KEY. I WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON AGENDA ITEM J ÃONE UNDER SUBDIVISIONS 48 272 ACRE SUBDIVISION TO BE DIVIDED INTO 37 LOTS. OFF OF WEST FITZHUGH ROAD.

THERE IS ONE MAIN PROBLEM WITH THIS REUEST TO SUBDIVIDE THIS LAND. THE REQUEST GOES INTO DIRECT CONFLICT WITH THE RESOLUTION SIGNED BY THE COURT.

ON JUNE 27, 2021. THEY CALL FOR LOWERING THE DESIRED FUTURE CONDITION. TO PREVENT MINING OF THE AQUIFER. THIS ITEM WASN'T SPONSORED BY COMMISSIONER SHELTON VOTED ON 4Ä WITH THE JUDGE VOTING AGAINST IT. THERE WAS IN COURT THAT THEY AND GREATLY APPRECIATED THE JUDGE MOVING THIS ITEM TO THE FRONT OF THE LINE. SO I COULD COMMENT ON IT.

I ALSO APPRECIATE THE FACT THAT JUDGE BECERRA WAS ABLE TO LOOK AT THE ITEM LOGICALLY AND NOT PANDER TO THE ENVIRONMENTAL EXTREMISTS. WHO PROFIT FROM SELLING FEAR IN OUR COMMUNITY. BUT SINCE THE COURT VOTED TO ADOPT THIS RESOLUTION, LET ME TELL YOU WHAT IT MEANS FOR OUR AQUIFER. EACH OF THE 37 LOTS CAN PUMP UP TO 25,000 PER DAY OR JUST SHY OF 1 MILLION GALLONS PER DAY.

THAT IS IF THEY DON'T HAVE AN AGRICULTURAL WELL, WHICH COULD PUMP MUCH MORE. A LOT OF THESE LARGE LOT PROPERTIES ARE INSTALLING PONDS, VINEYARDS, ETC. ALL HUGE WATER USERS. THE AREA ALL FITZHUGH TRADITIONALLY HAS HAD POOR HARD WATER WITH LOW PRODUCTION.

THERE IS NO SURFACE WATER IN THE AREA AND NONE THAT I KNOW PLAYED ANYTIME SOON. SOME FOLKS WILL SAY THAT THEY WILL USE RAINWATER COLLECTIONS. CURRENTLY DRIPPING SPRINGS W SC HAS PRIVATE WATER TRUCKS RUNNING 24 HOUR PER DAY HAULING WATER TO RAINWATER SYSTEMS. HALF OF THE SWS SEES WATER COMES FROM THE AQUIFER. ALL THAT BEING SAID, I SUPPORT THIS PERSON'S RIGHT TO DEVELOP THEIR PROPERTY AS THEY SEE FIT.

JUST BECAUSE SOMEONE DOESN'T UTILIZE THEIR PROPERTY RIGHTS THIS AND THAT THEY SHOULD BE STOLEN FROM THEM.

I AM MERELY TRYING TO POINT OUT THAT RESOLUTIONS MEETING NEED SOMETHING AND THE COURT SHOULD CONSIDER ANY PROPOSAL LONG AND HARD BEFORE PROVIDING IN AREAS THAT THEY ARE NOT WELL INFORMED

OF. >> OKAY, KURT I WOULD LOVE TO ADDRESS THAT, JUDGE. THE RESOLUTION IN QUESTION THAT THE COURT SUPPORTED WAS ABOUT TRYING TO TAKE A LOOK AT THE SCIENCE AND HOW CLEAR DIRECTION IN A VERY COMPLICATED ISSUE.

WHICH IS GROUNDWATER AND AT THIS TIME, CORPORAL MAJORITY VOTE. BY MAJORITY VOTE ÃJUST THE RESOLUTION RECOMMENDED THAT THESE DESIRED FUTURE CONDITIONS BE TAKING A CLOSER LOOK AS THE STATE WATER PLAN ALLOCATES GROUNDWATER RESOURCES TO THIS GROUNDWATER CONSERVATION DISTRICTS. EXTRINSIC APPLICATOR AND I WOULD HONESTLY BE LYING IF I SAID I UNDERSTOOD IT.

EVEN PROBABLY TO THE ONE PERCENT LEVEL OF THE SCIENCE.

I THINK THE IDEA IS THAT THE COURT WOULD BE OPEN TO TRYING TO USE SCIENCE MORE TO DETERMINE THAT.

I THINK THE COMMON ÃÃI AM NOT SURE WHAT THE CONFLATING ISSUE WOULD BE WITH THIS LEGAL PROCESS OF US APPROVING A SUBDIVISION. BUT AGAIN MOVING UP TO THE AUTHORITIES. THIS SUBDIVISION FOLLOWS ALL THE RULES. THE STATE OF TEXAS AND HAYS COUNTY WOULD NOT BE HERE IN THIS FORM AT THIS POINT.

IT DOES PROPOSE THESE LOTS TO BE SERVED BY INDIVIDUAL WELLS, WHICH IS OBVIOUSLY EXTREMELY COMMON ACROSS WESTERN HAYS COUNTY BECAUSE OF THE LIMITED WATER SUPPLIES.

THERE IS SOME SURFACE WATER THAT STARTS DRIPPING SPRINGS IN THE AREA. FOR THE MOST PART, EVERYTHING IS DEVELOPED ON GROUNDWATER. ON-SITE WORK GROUNDWATER OR MUNICIPAL SYSTEMS THAT USE GROUNDWATER IS THE WATER SUPPLY. SO, DRIPPING SPRINGS WATER SUPPLY AS TREND WATER GROUNDWATER WELLS.

[01:30:03]

THAT RESOLUTION IN THE PAST WAS AN ATTEMPT OF THE COURT TO TRY AND OPEN THE DISCUSSION ON HOW BEST TO ALLOCATE THE WATER THAT IS THERE AND MAKE SURE THAT IT IS USED IN WET THAT IS SUSTAINABLE. HOWEVER, WHEN IT COMES TO OUR AUTHORITIES TO IMPROVE SUBDIVISIONS, WE ARE BOUND BY STATE LAW IN THIS SUBDIVISION BEATS THE RULES OF THE COUNTY AND THE RULES OF THE STATE AND IT WOULD BE APPROVED.

>> SO, WE HAVE THIS AGENDA ITEM (WE HAVE OUR COMMENTS EXECUTED.

AND IT IS CUSTOMARY FOR ME TO GO STRAIGHT TO THE COMMISSIONER THAT HAS ITS AGENDA ITEM. THIS RESTRICTED TO US.

>> JUDGE AND COMMISSIONER. I DO HAVE SOME COMMENTARY OVERLOOKED OUT OF THIS PARTICULAR ITEM.

>> GIVE ME SECOND FIRST. OKAY.

>> THANK YOU JUDGE AND COMMISSIONERS.

THE 272 FITZHUGH PULMONARY PLAN OF SUBDIVISION IS PROPOSED 37 LOTS ACROSS APPROXIMATELY 270 ACRES.

THE FITZHUGH ROAD IN PRECINCT 3 INJURY SPRINGS.

AS MENTIONED, WHAT WILL BE SERVED AND ACCOMPLISHED PRIVATE WEALTH. AND WE SUPPORTERS CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED BY VISUAL SEWAGE FACILITIES.

GREAT CONVERSATIONS THAT WE'VE HAD THUS FAR ABOUT ABILITY TO THE SUBDIVISION OR NOT. OF ALL THE STATUTORY APARTMENTS OF THE COUNTY HAS TO MEET PURSUANT TO THE SUBDIVISION APPLICATION PROCESS. THAT IS WHERE WE ARE AT RIGHT NOW WITH THIS PROPOSED PROJECT. THE STATE LOCAL GOVERNMENT CODE HAS STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS THAT THE COUNTY MUST ACT.

TO APPROVE OR DISAPPROVE SUBDIVISION APPLICATION WITH THIS STATUTORY TIMELINE. AT THIS CURRENT TIME FOR THIS PARTICULAR SUBDIVISION, IT HAS MET ALL THE COUNTY REGULATIONS.

MOST COUNTY REGULATIONS I'LL BE 100 PERCENT CLEAR.

THE ONLY THING THAT WE CURRENTLY ARE RIGHT NOW IS STILL WAITING IS WATER AVAILABILITY STUDY FOR THE SUBDIVISION. FROM OUR COORDINATION FROM THE ENGINEERS WORKING ON IT, IT HAS BEEN CONDUCTED AND HAS BEEN JUST AS THERE IS A WAY TO RECEIVE IT FROM THE INDIVIDUALS THAT WORK ON. I HAVE REPRESENTED IT.

WORKING ON THE PROJECT. AND SO, ONCE THE COUNTY DOES GET THAT WATER BILL CERTIFIED, IT HAS MET AND CHECK ALL THE BOXES. THIS TIME, WHAT STAFF WOULD RECOMMEND IS THAT THE COURT, THEY CHOOSE TO DO GREAT ADDITIONAL APPROVAL OF THE CULINARY PLAN.

THE CONDITION IS BILLED OUT QUITE A CHAPTER OR SECTION 17 OF 305 AND 306. IN THE COUNTY CODE REGULATIONS.

>> I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE MY MOTION TO WHAT MR. CHECK JUST SAID. ON THE CONDITION OF THE WATER

AVAILABILITY STUDY. >> I WILL CHANGE MINE TO SECOND

AS WELL. >> FOR THE VIEWING PUBLIC, THE AGENDA ITEM THAT IS WRITTEN TO APPROVE THIS AND OUR DIRECTOR AND OF DEVELOPMENT AS MR. CHACKO SAID.

THERE IS A SINGLE PIECE OF INFORMATION MISSING.

WHICH IS THE WATER AVAILABILITY STUDY.THE SUGGESTION IS TO MAKE A CONDITIONAL APPROVAL PENDING THE RECEIPT OF THAT.

DOCUMENT. AND MOTION IS BEEN AMENDED.

>> THAT IS CORRECT SIR, YES. >> QUESTIONS, COMMENTS AND

CONCERNS? >> THIS IS PART OF MY PRECINCT AND I'M A MEMBER LAST YEAR. I CAN TELL YOU IS THAT THIS PORTION OF MY PRESENT ÃÃMUCH TO THE POINT OF WHAT OUR PUBLIC SPEAKERS SAID EARLIER, BUT AS A MEMBER OF PARCELS OUT THERE THAT ARE BEING SPLIT. I WILL TELL YOU THAT I WOULD MUCH RATHER SEE FROM THE DEVELOPER SIDE AS A COMMISSIONER PROJECTS LIKE THIS, OR YOU HAVE A LARGE LOT SIZE INSTEAD OF THE INCREASED DENSITY THESE DEVELOPERS THAT ARE IN THE ET DAYS OF THE CITIES THAT FALL WITHIN HAYES COUNTY.

'VE NEVER COME AS MY COLLEGE WILL TELL YOU, I'M NOT HUGE ON OVERREGULATION AT ALL. I THINK IT'S A PROBLEM.

BUT IF THERE IS ONE AREA THAT I STAND ÃÃTHAT STANDS IN STARK CONTRAST TO ME IS THE FACT THAT WE AS A COUNTY HAVE NO ZONING AUTHORITY. AND THAT LACK OF ZONING AUTHORITY ÃÃIT HINDERS US AS A COUNTY ON A DAILY BASIS.

AS ALL OF OUR MEMBERS OF THE SOUTH TEXAS COUNTY JUDGES AND COMMISSIONERS ASSOCIATION, OUR ENTIRE REPORT IF THEY ARE SET ON THE LEGISLATIVE RESOLUTIONS COMMITTEE AFTER ANNUAL MEETING IN CORPUS. IN JUNE OR JULY.

AND THE ONE THING THAT I I ASKED BE ADDED TO THE LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES IS ADDITIONAL AUTHORITY.

FOR COUNTIES SUCH AS OURS. WHICH ARE FAST-GROWING COUNTIES TO GO FOR THE ORGANIZATION TO GO TO THE STATE LEGISLATURE AND

[01:35:06]

IT'S UNFORTUNATE WITH THE STATE OUTLINING VERY CLEARLY WHAT WE CAN AND CANNOT DO. WE DON'T ACT ON THIS ÃÃTHIS SPECIFIC PROJECT. STATUTORILY BECOMES ADOPTED IF WE DON'T ACT ON IT. AND JUST BY STATUTE.

AND THAT IS THE REASON WHY WE MOVE FORWARD ON THESE.

WE DO WANT TO BE A PART OF THAT PROCESS.

SO. >> MR. B CHACKO, ONE MUST

QUESTION FOR YOU. >> YES.

>> CAN'T EXPLAIN WATER GLOBALLY STUDY TO THE VIEWING PUBLIC?

>> DEFINITELY. >> WATER AVAILABILITY STUDY IS A DEMONSTRATION TO CERTIFY THE ABILITY OF GROUNDWATER IN THAT PARTICULAR AREA. IT COMES IN A VARIETY OF FORMS AND FASHION. IT'S MOST OFTEN COMMONLY ASSOCIATED WITH PRIVATE WELLS AND INDIVIDUAL PRIVATE WELLS.

THERE ARE STILL FORMS AND AVAILABILITY EVEN IN THE PUBLIC WATER SOURCE. YOU KNOW? HAVING THE UTILITIES AND SERVICING THE SUBDIVISION AND ACKNOWLEDGMENT THAT THEY HAVE ENOUGH WATER TO SERVICE POINT DEVELOPMENT. WHETHER PETE LOTS OR USE OR

ETC. >> FOR THE ASPECT OF WHAT WE'RE DOING AND LOOKING AT HERE FOR PRIVATE WELLS, BUT IT IS IS THAT IT'S A PRIVATE REPORT THAT IS CONSTRICTED BY A CONSTRICTED LICENSE INDIVIDUAL. SOME REST AS THIS TITLE, TO GROUNDWATER STUDY THAT EVALUATES THE GROUNDWATER RESOURCES THAT ARE CONTINGENT ON THE AREA.

IT ALSO LOOKS AT GEOLOGY AND HOW HYDROLOGY IN THE AREA.

AND THEN ALSO A PUMPKIN TEST WILL BE DONE AND WHICH TWO WELLS WILL BE USED FOR PUMPING TO ENSURE.

>> BRING THE DRAWDOWN. >> EXACTLY.

IN ANY EVENT THAT THIS CAN BE USEFUL WHILE INVOLVING THE PROPOSED IN THE AREA. THEN THOSE STUDIES HAVE BEEN DONE IN THE IMPACT ON THE AQUIFER.

BASED ON THE ANALYSIS AND DATA THAT GOES INTO THE ENGINEERING STUDY. AND AT THE END OF THAT, THE GROUNDWATER AVAILABILITY SUMMER IS BROUGHT INTO REPORTS STATING ESSENTIALLY BASED ON THE ANALYSIS, THE ENGINEERING AND THIS TEST THAT WE'RE DOING CERTIFIES THAT THERE IS ENOUGH GROUNDWATER AVAILABLE AND NO DIGITAL IMPACT WILL BE DONE ON THE AQUIFER FOR THE USE OF THE PROPERTIES.

>> W FORECASTING AT A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF TIME.

>> NO SIR. >> FOR THE JUST SAY TO ME.

>> UNFORTUNATELY THIS CAN BE VERY TRICKY TO, FORECASTED FOR THE FUTURE. BUT IT TAKES INTO ACCOUNT WHAT IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW AND WHAT IS BEING PROPOSED.

>> JUDGE, THE OTHER THING THAT I WOULD SAY TO CLARIFY THAT AS WELL. IS WHEN WILL WE GET THE REPORT BACK. NO MATTER WHAT THE REPORT SAYS.

HAS NO IMPACT ON WHETHER OR NOT THAT SUBDIVISION WOULD MEET AND BE APPROVED OR NOT. IS THAT NOT CORRECT?

>> IF THE WATER GLOBALLY CAME BACK AND SAID THAT THERE WAS NOT A WATER THERE. WE WILL HAVE THE AUTHORITY NOT TO APPROVE THE PLAT BECAUSE OF THAT.

AM I INCORRECT IN THAT? >> YES.

AND NO. IF THE REPORTS COMING BACK AND STATING IT IS NOT ENOUGH WATER FOR THESE.

ALL 37 LOTS. THEN WE WOULD HAVE TO THEN SEE IF THERE COULD BE RECONSIDERATION OF THE LOTS THAT ARE BEING PROPOSED.HE NOBLES BIKED INTO THE NUMBER WELLS THAT ARE BEING PROPOSED BEING DRILLED.

>> THINK THE QUESTION IS IF WE WERE HAD A WORKABILITY STUDY

EVER? >> UP TO MY KNOWLEDGE.

>> LET HIM FINISH THE QUESTION. PLEASE RESTATE YOUR QUESTION.

>> HAVE WE WERE HAD AVAILABILITY STUDY THAT'S BEEN SUBMITTED REGARDING THE SUBDIVISION IN HAYS COUNTY THAT SAID THAT THERE IS NOT ENOUGH WATER FOR THE PROPOSED?

>> NOT THAT I'VE SEEN. SINCE HAVE BEEN AWARE AND INVOLVED WITH THEM.> JUDGE, I JUST WANTED TO THANK EVERYBODY THAT'S HERE TODAY. EVEN THOUGH IT'S NOT PAYING FOR THE ITEM THAT WE ARE TO VOTE ON RIGHT NOW.

IT APPEARS THAT IT'S AN ITEM THAT WILL BE DISCUSSING SOME POINT THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING HERE.

>> WITHOUT LIKE TO DO IS IN CLOSING BEFORE WE VOTE ON THIS.

ASK MR. PENN CHACKO TO GIVE THE COUNTY CLERK'S OFFICE AND COMMUNICATE WITH THE FOLKS THAT CAME IN TODAY SO THAT WHEN THIS DOES COME ON, THEY GET A HEADS UP.

I DON'T WANT TO PLAY GOTCHA GOVERNMENT.

THE BEST THING WE CAN DO IS BE TRANSPARENT AND I'M NOT SAYING SOMEONE APPEARS NOT. WHAT I'M SAYING IS THAT WILL MAKE SURE YOU ARE INFORMED. THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING HERE.

PLEASE CALL THE ROLL. >> JUDGES, BASED ON THAT, DEPENDING ON THE DEVELOPMENT. IF THE DEVELOPMENT IS NOT A FORMAL SUBDIVISION AS WE ARE DISCUSSING ON THIS ITEM, IT IS VERY LIKELY THAT IT IS NOT AN ISSUE OF THAT DEVELOPMENT THAT WILL COME BEFORE THE COURT. IT WILL JUST BE THE GRANTING OF PERMITS BASED UPON RULES. HEALTHY INDIVIDUALS ASKING FOR ANY TYPE OF VARIANCE ON THOSE RULES, YOU WOULD SEE THAT

[01:40:01]

BUT FOR SOMEONE TO DEVELOP ON THEIR PROPERTY AND FOLLOW THE RULES ASSOCIATED WITH THOSE PERMITS THAT WE DISCUSSED EARLIER, THOSE ARE ADMINISTRATIVE GRANTED IF THEY FOLLOW THE RULES. IF NOT, THEY WOULD ÃÃTHIS IS VERY FORMAL PROCESS OF SUBDIVISION IS THE MISSION ON THE TIME AND WHERE THEY ARE ON THIS PRELIMINARY POINT.

FOR SOMEONE THAT COMES IN TO DO A PART OF THE ORBITAL CABINS ON A PIECE OF PROPERTY WITH INDIVIDUALS.

WASTEWATER SYSTEMS, YOU WOULD LIKELY NOT EVER SEE ANYTHING ON OUR AGENDA TO MAKE A DECISION AS LONG AS THEY ARE MEETING THE RULES ASSOCIATED WITH THOSE DIFFERENT PERMITS.

>> IT'S NOT A TRUE SUBDIVISION. >> CORRECT.

THE GRANTED IN THE DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE ACTION TO ISSUE THOSE PERMITS. IN OUR DEPARTMENT.

THANK YOU. >> MY NAME IS JOE CARR TETHER.

I AM THE FOUNDER AND PRESIDENT OF SOCIAL TEXAS WATER POLE.

BEFORE I GET INTO TALKING ABOUT THE RESOLUTION, I WANT TO SAY THAT I ATTENDED A CONFERENCE AT TEXAS STATE UNIVERSITY.

WHICH IS DEALING WITH A LOT OF GROUNDWATER ISSUES WITH FARMING. I WANT PARTICULARLY TO HEAR DOCTOR MASON ÃÃROBERT MAYS TALK ABOUT THE GROUNDWATER DISTRICTS AND WHAT PEOPLE COULD DO.

WATER IS A COMPLICATED ISSUE. BUT WE HAVE TRIED TO DO THROUGH CENTRAL TEXAS WATER COALITION IS TO TAKE DIFFICULT IN THE WEEDS AND ENGINEER DUSTERS SCIENTIFICALLY WORDED DATA AND PUT IT INTO LANGUAGE THAT ANYONE CAN UNDERSTAND.

THIS RESOLUTION TO LCR A TEST TEST YOU HAVE YOUR PACKET.

[INDISCERNIBLE] I CANNOT LOSE MY PLACE.

I HAVE TO HAVE A PEN AND HAND. THANK YOU FOR ADDRESSING THIS.

I'M SURE YOU'VE SEEN A LETTER FROM LCR A. THEY HAVE BEEN SENDING LETTERS OUT EVERYWHERE I GO.

AHEAD OF TIME WHEN WE POST WHERE WE'RE GOING.

REALLY GIVE THE RATIONALE. FOR NOT OPENING THE ONE MANAGER PLAN. AND SO, THEIR THEORY IS THAT THE PLAN IS PROTECTIVE ENOUGH AND ENOUGH SAFEGUARDS IN THE PRE-THERE IS NO REASON TO REVIEW IT NOW.

E ARE SAYING IT RIGHT NOW. WE HOPE THEY ARE RIGHT.

IT WOULD BE WONDERFUL. IF WE GOT RAIN AND IT DID NOT END UP IN A TRAP. OR A MEGA DROUGHT.

LIKE CALIFORNIA. WHO HAS BEEN IN A DROUGHT FOR 22 YEARS. WE'RE TEXAS, WE ARE NOT CALIFORNIA. BUT WE ARE ALSO SILLY IF WE DON'T LOOK AT WHAT IS HAPPENING THERE.

I READ AN INTERESTING ARTICLE IN BLOOMBERG ABOUT IT.

AND THE THINGS THEY WERE SAYING GOING BACK AND LOOKING AT THEIR HISTORY ARE EXACTLY THE THINGS THE LCR HAITI HAS BEEN SAYING.

IT WILL RAIN. DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.

THE PLAN IS HERE. IT ALWAYS RAINS.

WELL, THAT USED TO BE TRUE. BUT THERE IS BEEN A LOT OF CHANGES THAT HAVE OCCURRED OVER THE YEARS.

THE INFLOWS AND I HAVE TO GO GUYS.

IF YOU DON'T MIND LADIES. TIER FOLDER.

) THESE ENCLOSED AND I APOLOGIZE FOR BEING NERDY, BUT THERE'S NO WAY TO NOT DEAL WITH SOME OF THIS.

I PUT IT IN YOUR PACKET LCR IS INFLOWS FROM THE YEAR OF 2021.

AND IF YOU LOOK AT IT, IT SHOWS THE AVERAGE HISTORICALLY JUSTICE SHOWS THE AVERAGE OF THE DROUGHT.

IT SHOWS WHAT HAPPENED IN 2021. I PUT A SEPARATE SHEET AND THAT I DISCUSSED THIS MORNING THAT IT HAS JUST BEEN POSTED.

[01:45:01]

OF WATER. IF YOU LOOK AT YOUR LIFE, YOU CANNOT SEE IT. BECAUSE IT IS SO TINY.

IF YOU LOOK AT THE BOTTOM RIGHT-HAND CORNER, SHOWS BY MONTH AND EACH MONTH FOR JULY 2022 JUST ÃÃDURING THE DROUGHT YOU HAD 40,000. HISTORICALLY, YOU HAD 81,000.

OR THE FIRST TIME EVER, YOU'VE GONE TO THE MONTH OF JULY WITH THE AMOUNT OF RAIN. FOR A WEEK AND 1/2, YOU HAD ZERO INFLOWS INTO THE HIGHLAND LAKES.ZERO INFLOWS.

>> JUST TO KEEP PROTOCOL, WILL YOU PLEASE CONCLUDE YOUR THOUGHTS? YOU TIME IS UP.

>> 90. I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE. ON THE RESOLUTION.

>> THANK YOU. >> WE COULD CALL YOU BACK UP.

AT THIS POINT TIME, THIS IS THE FORMAT.

THANK YOU.>> DOCTOR, YOU'VE RESOLUTION THERE.

WOULD YOU PLEASE READ IT? >> I'VE RESOLUTION HERE.

>> SO WE CAN ALL UNDERSTAND WHAT IS BEING DISCUSSED?

>> BACK SINCE THE ORGANIZED. >> SHE ALWAYS IS.

>> RESOLUTION ON SECURING THE FUTURE BY IMPROVING WATER MANAGEMENT POLICIES. AND PROMOTING WATER CONSERVATION AT CENTRAL TEXAS AND A LOCAL COLORADO WATER BASIN. THE COMMISSIONERS COURT OF HAYES COUNTY TEXAS MEETING AT REGULAR SESSION ON THE NINTH DAY OF AUGUST 2022 CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING RESOLUTION.

HERE'S THE HIGHLAND LIGHTS HAVE A PRIMARY WATER SUPPORT FOR CENTRAL TEXAS. AND WHERE AS IT IS PROJECTED THAT CENTRAL TEXAS COULD ADD UP TO 1 MILLION RESIDENTS BY 2030.

AND WHEREAS MORE ARID WEATHER CONDITIONS SHIFTING EASTWARD TO INCLUDE TEXAS HAVE LED THIS STATE, COLLEGES TO OBSERVE THE SUSTAINED TRACK CONDITIONS COULD BECOME PERMANENT AND WHEREAS CURRENT WATER INFLOWS INTO THE HIGHLAND LAKES CONTINUED TO DECLINE WITH MOST MONTHLY TOTALS LOWER THAN THE AVERAGE FOR THE HISTORIC DROUGHT OF RECORD.

AND WHERE IS THE CURRENT LCR A WATER MANAGEMENT PLANT IS IN NEED OF MODERNIZATION TO REFLECT THE REGIONS PARADIGM SHIFT. OF INCREASING WATER NEEDS AND DRIER WEATHER PATTERNS. NOW, THEREFORE BEAR RESULT THAT WE AT THE HAYES WATER COUNTY COMMISSIONERS SUPPORT HEREBY REQUEST ONE AT THE LCR A WORK WITH LOCAL LEADERS AND STAKEHOLDERS IN ORDER TO ACCELERATE THE UPDATE OF ITS WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN TO IMPLEMENT A MORE PROTECTIVE APPROACH TO MANAGING THE HIGHLAND LAKES 2022.

TWO. UPDATES TO THE WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN UPDATE CURRENT SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH TO TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE SIGNIFICANT DECLINE OF WATER FLOWING INTO THE HIGHLAND LAKES. INCLUDING PROVISIONS THAT ENCOURAGE PRESERVATION BY WATER USERS.

AND PREPARE FOR GREATLY INCREASED WATER DEMANDS IN CENTRAL TEXAS. THREE.

THAT THE LCR A OBTAIN INFORMATION ON THE CAUSES FOR AN CONSEQUENCES OF THE DRAMATIC DECLINE AND INFLOWS TO THE HIGHLAND LAKES TO ASSURE THAT THIS PHENOMENON IS ACCOUNTED FOR IN THE UPDATED WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN.

IVE, THE LCR A FACILITATES SMART WATER DISTRIBUTION AND USAGE. INCLUDING THE IMPLEMENTATION OF MODERN AND EFFICIENT WATER USE PRACTICES IN LARGE IRRIGATION SETTINGS SUITABLE TO AN AREA CLIENT CLIMATE.

[INDISCERNIBLE] ESTABLISH ADVISORY COMMITTEES OF LOCAL OFFICIALS, BUSINESS LEADERS, STAKEHOLDER ORGANIZATIONS AND AREA RESIDENTS TO FOSTER AND INCREASE OPPORTUNITIES FOR OPEN DISCUSSION AND COLLABORATION ON ISSUES THAT AFFECT THE WATER SUPPLY AND ECONOMY FOR ALMOST 2 MILLION CENTRAL TEXANS. RESOLVE THIS THE NINTH DAY OF AUGUST 2022 BY THE HAYS COUNTY COMMISSIONERS COURT.

>> OKAY.

OMMISSIONER, HE SECONDED MY MOTION.ISCUSSION?

>> THANK YOU JUDGE. WELL, AT FIRST GLANCE JUDGE, AND I DID HAVE SOMEONE THAT CALLED ME AND SPOKE TO ME.'M SORRY, I DO NOT RECALL THE GENTLEMAN'S NAME THAT CALLED AND SPOKE WITH ME BRIEFLY ABOUT THIS.OWEVER, SINCE THEN AND SINCE HE RECENTLY, I BELIEVE YOU MENTIONED SOMETHING ABOUT LCR A MIGHT BE SENDING OUT THE LETTER.

I DID NOT GET A LETTER. HOWEVER, I HAVE HEARD THAT

[01:50:04]

APPARENTLY THERE ARE SOME CONCERNS.

SO, I DO NOT KNOW ALL THOSE JUDGE.

I HAVE JUST BECOME AWARE. AND SO, I WOULD LIKE TO TAKE A LITTLE BIT MORE TIME TO TRADE TOGETHER THE INFORMATION THAT I FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH MOVING FORWARD.

IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT MAYBE A SIMILAR RESOLUTION HAS BEEN PRESENTED TO OTHER COUNTIES AND HAS NOT MOVED FORWARD. AND SO, I WOULD LIKE TO AT LEAST TAKE THE TIME FOR MYSELF TO LOOK INTO THIS A LITTLE BIT

MORE. >> COMMISSIONER JONES?> I'M KIND OF WITH COMMISSIONER AS WELL.

UNDER ALREADY STAKEHOLDERS INVOLVED IN THE COMPLAINT AND THE TRIGGERS WERE DECIDED AT THAT TIME WHAT WOULD TRIGGER

THE UPDATE?Y MISTAKEN? >> HERE IS YOUR OPPORTUNITY TO COME BACK TO THE PODIUM WITHOUT A TIMER.

SORRY. >> NO, IT'S PERFECT.

JUST FOR THE VIEWING PUBLIC, FOR OUR OVERALL BENEFIT AND CONTINUITY, JUST STATE YOUR NAME AND TITLE FOR THE VIEWING

PUBLIC PRAYER. >> JOE CARD TENDER.

TEXAS WATER COALITION. YES, WE WERE PART OF EACH OF THE STAKEHOLDERS PROCESSES. I'VE BEEN PERSONAL SINCE 2010.

THE WATER MANAGEMENT PLANT WHERE WE ARE UNDER NOW WAS DESIGNED TO PROVIDE WATER FOR AS MANY PEOPLE AS THEY COULD.

WE HAVE PUSHED CTW C. THEY WORKED HARD TO MAKE THE PLANT MORE PROTECTIVE FOR THE UPPER BASIN.

THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN IN THAT THE TRIGGER LEVELS, WHICH WE HAVE IMPROVED A LITTLE BIT, BUT NOT ENOUGH TO PROTECT US.

>> THE TRIGGERS WERE DECIDED BY THE STAKEHOLDERS GROUP, THAT IS

MY UNDERSTANDING COULD. >> THE TRIGGERS WILL TRIGGER BY LCR A. AFTER GIVING WRITTEN INPUT FROM ANYONE WHO HAD INPUT TO GIVE THEM. THE INCLUDED RICE FARMERS, ENVIRONMENTALISTS, FROM CUSTOMERS AND DOES THAT ANSWER

YOUR QUESTION? >> ALSO, DIGITAL DISHES TO

WILLIAMSON COUNTY TO CREDIT? >> FIRST WE WENT TO TRAVIS COUNTY. BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE LAKE TRAVIS IS. THEY WERE CRITICAL FOR US GIVEN THIS RESOLUTION BECAUSE FOR LCR A. WHICH WILL BE DEALING WITH IN THE 17. WENT TO BURMA COUNTY WHERE THE OTHER RESERVOIR IS.> OF THOSE THEM TO IMPROVE? THEY WERE APPROVED UNANIMOUSLY PUT WE DEBATED FOR AN HOUR NAP IN WHICH IT WAS ALWAYS HOPE HEALTHY.

I WENT TO WILLIAMSON COUNTY NEXT.

THEN TO YOU. DID THAT BECAUSE THE PROBLEM AND WATER IS THAT YOU ARE NOT IN A SILO. EVERYTHING YOU DO IMPACTS EVERYBODY. NOT THAT FROM GROUND ORDERS.

SOME SURFACE WATER.ILLIAMSON COUNTY DID NOT SUPPORT IT.

HEY SAID THEY NEEDED TO STAY IN THE LANE.

BECAUSE THE WATER THAT FALLS UNDER COUNTY GOES TO THE BRAZOS RIVER. HOWEVER, LEANDER AND ROUND ROCK 100 PERCENT OF THEIR WATER FROM LAKE TRAVIS.

AND THAT WAS WHAT WE THOUGHT WOULD BE.

IN THE SUN. >> PLANO DEPENDS ON THIS ALSO PRINT WHAT DID THEY DO? WE DID NOT TALK TO LENA.

I PUT IN A REQUEST THERE IN THE PROCESS OF SOME NEGOTIATIONS WITH LCR A ON ANOTHER ISSUE. PEOPLE FOR SOME STRANGE REASON SEEM TO BE FEARFUL OF SPEAKING OUT AGAINST THE AGENCY.

SO, WHENEVER I HEAR THERE'S SOMETHING GOING ON, DO NOT PUSH THOSE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS TO BRING UP A TOPIC, WHICH COULD IN THE LONG ONE MIGHT BE BENEFICIAL TO THE COUNTY.

>> I THOUGHT IT WAS ON ONE OF JUDGE CUNNINGHAM SAID IT WAS ON

THEIR GENDER THEM. >> ALIGNMENT?

>> THAT'S WONDERFUL. I DID NOT SEE THAT.>.

>> THEY DID NOT GET A SECOND FOR SOME REASON?

>> IT WASN'T JUST A SHUTTLE TO RIBBON DISCUSSED IN YOUR COUNTY. BECAUSE I THINK I WOULD'VE BEEN AWARE OF IT SINCE IT WAS A RESOLUTION.

>> THANK YOU. >> COMMISSIONER SHALL?> THINKS JUDGE. AS JOE CARR HAS MENTIONED, IT'S BEEN EXTREMELY LOCATED SITUATION AS WE WERE DISCUSSING GROUNDWATER. ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU FACTOR IN THE GROUNDWATER GOING ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE COAST AND I KNOW THAT JOE CARR HAS WORKED ON THIS ISSUE FOR MANY YEARS.

WE DID RECEIVE A LETTER FROM MR. WILSON GENERAL MANAGER OF LCR A AND I KNOW IN HIS LETTER AS YOU MENTIONED THAT WE ARE GOING TO BE REACHING OUT SOON. TO START THE DIALOGUE WITH LOCAL JURISDICTIONS ON EVALUATING THE CURRENT WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN. KIND OF WHERE THEY WOULD BE GOING IN THE FUTURE. DON'T LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING ABOUT THAT.NTIL RECENTLY IT'S NOT REPRESENTED IN AN AREA

[01:55:01]

HAS TO SAY ALSO. >> THANK YOU.

YOU KNOW, I'VE HAD QUITE A FEW OF CONVERSATIONS WITH MR. DOHERTY. MISS TOLER AND I WILL TELL YOU THAT IN PRINCIPLE, LIKE THE RESOLUTION.

WE HAD SOME CONVERSATIONS LAST WEEK.

ACTUALLY, INITIALLY I WAS THINKING ABOUT COSPONSORING IT WITH YOU. BUT THE MORE THAT I DO HAVE SOME CONCERNS. NOT NECESSARILY OVER LCR A ITSELF. BUT SOME OF THE INVOLVEMENT.

AND I WOULD WELCOME ADDITIONAL CONVERSATIONS WITH YOU ABOUT THAT. I DID REACH OUT AFTER RECEIVING A LETTER FROM LCR A. I DID REACH OUT TO THEM AND HAD A COMPARABLE CONVERSATIONS ABOUT WHAT THE TIMETABLE INVOLVES.

AND I WAS ASSURED THAT THEIR TIMETABLE WAS ACTUALLY SOONER RATHER THAN LATER PROBABLY THIS FALL AND THE NEXT COUPLE OF MONTHS. WE SHOULD ÃÃI WAS TOLD THAT WE SHOULD BE EXPECTING THE CALL AS COMMISSIONERS AND JUDGES.

TO THEIR AREA OR WITHIN THEIR SERVICE AREAS.

FOR ME PERSONALLY, I HAVE A VERY THIS DISH AS YOU KNOW, I SEND THE BOARD OF THE WEST TRAVIS COUNTY PUA.

AND I REPRESENT THE WEST TRAVIS COUNTY.

OUR WATER IS ÃÃTHAT SYSTEM SERVES AS ALL SURFACE WATER.

FROM LAKE TRAVIS. AND IN OUR COUNTY, THE ONE THING THAT WE DON'T HAVE IS EXTRA WATER.

WHETHER IT'S SURFACE WATER OR GROUNDWATER.

SO, I ANTICIPATE THAT WE ARE GOING TO BE LOOKING, ESPECIALLY GIVEN OUR CURRENT CONDITIONS FOR ADDITIONAL WATER RESOURCES.

AND I FOR ONE DO NOT WANT THOSE ADDITIONAL WATER RESOURCES TO JUST BE ANOTHER PIPE INTO LAKE TRAVIS.

THAT DOES NOT DO ANY GOOD FOR THE WHOLE COUNTRY.

IT CERTAINLY DOES NOT DO GOOD FOR OUR AREA BECAUSE WE ARE IN ESSENCE, WE ARE ROBBING PETER TO PAY PAUL.

WE ARE TAKING WATER FROM ONE AREA AND PUTTING IT INTO ANOTHER IN THE SAME REGION. AT THE DETRIMENT TO BOTH IN THE LONG RUN IN MY PERSONAL VIEW. I TEND TO AGREE WITH MY COLLEAGUES AS FAR AS THE TIMING OF THIS.

I AM ALWAYS REMISS WHEN IT COMES TO A RESOLUTION DIRECTING ANOTHER AGENCY ON HOW TO RUN THEIR BUSINESS.

AND I SAY THAT BECAUSE WE OFTEN GET RESOLUTIONS FROM SOME OF OUR CITIES AND OTHERS TELLING US FROM THE COUNTY HOW WE NEED TO RUN AND DO OUR BUSINESS. AND I AM NOT SAYING THAT THEY ARE NECESSARILY WRONG IN SOME CASES.

I AGREE WITH SOME OF THEM. BLOOD ALSO OUGHT TO UNDERSTAND THAT WE HAVE THE KITCHEN HERE AND WE ARE THE COOKS IN IT.

AND WHENEVER I TRY ÃÃTHIS IS A COUNTY TRY TO STEP IN TO SOMEBODY ELSE'S KITCHEN AND BECOME THEIR COOK, IT'S PROBLEMATIC. AS I MENTIONED TO YOU BEFORE.

I AM HAPPY. HAPPY TO GO TO THE LEGISLATURE AND WORK ON THIS WITH YOU AND TRY TO GET SOMETHING DONE AS FAR AS AN OVERALL WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN.

IT IS REALLY HELPFUL FOR OUR AREA.

I DON'T KNOW IF TELLING THE LCR A HOW TO RUN THE BUSINESS IS NECESSARILY THE BEST WAY TO GO ABOUT IT.

IF THAT MAKES SENSE. I'M WITH AND HAPPY AGAIN, MORE THAN HAPPY TO CONTINUE TO WORK WITH YOU AND I SEE BENEFIT IN WHAT YOU ARE DOING. OR I WOULD NOT HAVE GONE TO YOUR MEETINGS FOR THE LAST 2 AND A HALF YEARS.

I DO SEE BENEFIT AND I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT I AM MORE THAN WILLING TO WORK WITH YOU. I JUST DON'T KNOW IF THAT THIS

IS THE RIGHT RESOLUTION FOR. >> OKAY, THANK YOU.

I WOULD JUST SAY THAT DOING BUSINESS AS USUAL IS NOT WHAT WE CAN CONTINUE DOING. WERE WATERS CONCERN PAIRED WHETHER IT'S GROUNDWATER OR SURFACE WATER.

AND THAT IS THE PROBLEM THAT WE HAVE SEEN IN HAVING AN IMPACT ON AGENCIES. WE ARE ALL CENTRAL TEXAS.

IT'S THE ENTIRE REGION AQUIFERS AND RIVERS DO NOT RECOGNIZE LOCAL BOUNDARIES. THEY GO WHERE THEY WANT TO GO.

JUST LIKE THE AQUIFERS. AND SO, WHEN YOU HAVE ONE MANIA, YOU HAVE THE CHANGE IN THE MERIDIAN.

YOU'VE ALL THE ISSUES THAT WE'RE DEALING WITH NOW.

GIVE ZERO INFLUENCE INTO THE LAKES.

AND SO, WE'RE GOING TO WAIT AND MAY BE IN A COUPLE OF MONTHS SOMETHING WILL COME UP WHERE THEY WILL ADDRESS IT.

IF THEY DO NOT, IF WHATEVER THAT LITTLE MAGIC TRIGGER IS, IT MAKES THEM ADDRESS IT, IT WILL BE 2025.

AND THEN IT WILL TAKE TWO MORE YEARS.

IT'LL BE 2027 UNTIL WE ACTUALLY HAVE A NEW WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN. I PERSONALLY THINK THAT WE ARE VULNERABLE AND OUR WATER IS NOT PROTECTED.

AND I THINK IT IS A HUGE MISTAKE TO NOT ADDRESS THE RISK OF RUNNING OUT OF DRINKING WATER.

>> I AGREE 100 PERCENT AND THAT IS WHY ABOUT THIS ITEM TO

[02:00:03]

THAT IS WHY WHEN I GO TO SCHOOL BOARD MEETINGS ALSO INVITED AND EVEN THEN I WILL STAKE IN THE QUIET IN THE BACKGROUND THE BEST I CAN. I FULLY SUPPORT THAT RESPECT THAT MUTUAL RESPECT. HOWEVER, THERE IS A BIG HOWEVER. THIS IS SOMETHING WE ARE ALL REGIONALLY TIED TO AND THE BIGGEST MISTAKE THAT I ÃÃAS THE COUNTYWIDE REPRESENTATIVE OF THIS BODY ÃÃI HAVE A REAL DUTY ÃÃI WILL SAY THAT WAY. A REAL DUTY TO SEE THIS AS ONE OF THE REGIONAL PLAYERS IN THIS CENTRAL TEXAS ÃTHIS ONE MORE.

I WILL WAIT FOR YOU TO COME IN. WE WERE REAL DUTY AS CENTRAL TEXAS IS THE FASTEST GROWING COUNTY IN THE NATION.

TO ENSURE THAT WE HAVE WATER AVAILABLE.

AND THOSE THAT ARE HELPING TO WATCH OVER THE WATER AND THE PLAN. HAVE A SOUND PLANT THAT ALL OF THE STAKEHOLDERS CAN AT LEAST REMOTELY WITNESS AND BE A PART OF AND ENGAGE IN. AND THAT IS WHY I SUPPORT THIS EFFORT. IT'S BECAUSE IT IS VERY BENIGN.

IT IS MERELY ASKING JUST AS WE ARE NOT FORCING ANYONE TO DO ANYTHING. ALL WE'RE DOING IS ASKING THEM TO PLEASE CONSIDER UPDATES. TO PLEASE ÃÃEVERYTHING THAT IS IN THEIR IS BENIGN. WHOLESOME, OPEN DIALOGUE.

FOSTER, OPEN DISCUSSION. LITERALLY THAT IS WHAT IS WRITTEN. AND I JUST ÃÃI AM DISAPPOINTED THAT IN A POSITION TO BE MORE USEFUL IN THIS.

SPACE AT THIS MOMENT. IN MY HEART, EVER SO IMPORTANT PROJECTING IT TO BE. COMMISSIONER INGALLS BE? PARTING THOUGHTS? YOU WANT TO CALL THE ROLE?

>> THERE HAS NOT BEEN A MOTION TO ADOPT THE RESOLUTION YET.

THERE IS A MOTION FOR DISCUSSION.

>> HOW IS THAT? THE INITIAL MOTION JUST TO

CLARIFY FOR ME. >> THAT'S WHAT I HEARD COMMISSIONER INGALLS AND AND SECOND.

SHE SAID FOR THE PURPOSE OF DISCUSSION ÃTHIS YOU COULD MOVE TO ADOPT IF YOU WOULD LIKE.

OR ANY COURT MEMBER CAN. >> OKAY.

>> I MOVED TO ADOPT A RESOLUTION ASKING OR NOT TELLING. ASKING THE LCR A TO PLEASE INCLUDE THAT ARE SO TIED TO YOUR DECISIONS.

PLEASE INCLUDE THEM IN THE CONVERSATION THROUGH THIS

DOCUMENT. >> JUDGE, BEFORE YOU MADE THAT MOTION, I WAS GOING TO ASK AND I APOLOGIZE AND I KNOW WE'RE KIND OF TAKEN THIS OUT OF STEP. SINCE YOU HAVE MADE THE MOTION.

>> NO PROBLEM. AS I SAID, YOU KNOW, I JUST KIND OF BECAME AWARE. I JUST WANT TO ENSURE THAT WE ARE DOING YOU KNOW, EVERYTHING THAT WE'RE DOING AND WORKING TOGETHER. I THINK THAT WATER HAS BEEN THE UTMOST IMPORTANCE FOR THIS ENTIRE COURT.

WE UNDERSTAND HOW IMPORTANT IT IS THAT WE CAN SERVE, PRESERVE, AND DO EVERYTHING THAT WE NEED TO DO TO ENSURE THAT WE HAVE THIS PROPER RESOURCES. FOR OUR CHILDREN AND FUTURE GENERATIONS. I THINK WE HAVE SAID THAT FOR A VERY LONG TIME.

AS I STATED, WHEN I READ THE RESOLUTION AND WHEN I WAS SPOKEN TO. I GUESS I WAS A MEMBER OF YOUR ORGANIZATION AND I TRULY APOLOGIZE AND I DON'T RECALL HIS NAME. IT SEEMED LIKE IT WAS SOMETHING THAT I COULD SUPPORT. OF COURSE, I HAVE GOTTEN SOME COMMENTS OF CONCERN. HOWEVER, I WAS LOOKING AT THE NOW THERE FOR BE IT RESOLVED. AND I DON'T KNOW THAT ONE WORD WOULD MAKE A DIFFERENCE, BUT INSTEAD OF REQUESTING LCR A, CAN WE SUPPORT THEM OR ENCOURAGE OR SOME OTHER WORD THAT MAYBE WILL LESSEN JUSTICE WE DON'T WANT TO LESSEN ÃÃYOU KNOW, THE POINTS AND THE IMPORTANCE OF THE RESOLUTION.

UT WE SUPPORT THEM DOING THESE THINGS.

>> I THINK THE WORD HONESTLY THAT ANSWERS THE QUESTION AND

[02:05:04]

IT'S NOTHING AGGRESSIVE IN MY MIND.

IT'S A REQUEST TO PLEASE NOT WAIT UNTIL 2027 FOR THE UPDATE.

TO PLEASE CONSIDER THE RAINFALL.

IT IS A REQUEST TO PLEASE CLOSE THE REFRIGERATOR BEFORE YOU GO TO BED.

[LAUGHTER] >> I THINK IT'S PRETTY BENIGN.

I REALLY DO. PERSONALLY.

>> JUDGE? THE ONE.

>> ONE SECOND COMMISSIONER. I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE YOUR STUFF OUT OF THE WAY BECAUSE WE HAVE A MOTION TO ADOPT THIS RESOLUTION. AND SO, I JUST WANT TO GIVE HER THAT SPACE AND THEN GO TO DISCUSSION.

AND I'M NOT TRYING TO PUT PRESSURE ON YOU.

I'M JUST TRYING TO GIVE YOU THE SPACE.

>> I UNDERSTAND JUDGE. >> NO SECOND?

>> NOT AT THIS TIME. >> SO, I HAVE MADE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE NCR RATE TO BE MORE INCLUSIVE WITH THEIR INFORMATION SHARING AND INCLUDE MORE STAKEHOLDERS AND IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN, I HAVE NO SECOND, IN MY RIGHT COMMISSIONERS? CORRECT? ASK I THINK THAT IS WHAT THEY

HAVE DONE. >> WHAT?

>> THEY HAVE EXTENDED THE PLANT THEY HAVE NOW PREDATE STAKEHOLDER MEETINGS BEFORE AND I MIGHT BE READING IT WRONG, BUT IT SAYS ÃTHIS IS THINK THEY HAVE BEEN MET BEFORE THEN.

BUT THEY ARE SAYING NO LATER THAN 2025.

THEY HAVE TO BEGIN BEFORE THEN. ARE YOU SAYING THAT IT IS NOT

RIGHT? >> I'M SAYING WHEN YOU HAVE ZERO INFLOWS COMING INTO THE HIGHLAND LAKES AND AT THE SAME TIME, YOU ARE RELEASING OVER 1000 ACRES EVERY SINGLE DAY.

THAT WE CANNOT AFFORD TO WAIT UNTIL 2025 TO ADDRESS DRINKING

WATER. >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR TIME. I'M VERY GRATEFUL.

THIS COURT WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE.

MY MOTION DIES AND WE'RE GOING TO TAKE A 10 MINUTE RECESS.> JUDGE, BEFORE WE LEAVE. ONE THING I WANT TO OFFER SOME CLARIFICATION ON. FOR EXAMPLE, AND I'M GOING TO USE THE TEXAS WATER DEVELOPMENT BOARD REGION K, WHICH IS THE LCR A REGION. AND I HAVE WORKED WITH CENTRAL TEXAS WATER COALITION TO TRY AND GET US AS A COUNTY INITIAL REPRESENTATION ON THE BOARD. THERE 2021 WATER PLAN STARTED ITS PLANNING PROCESS IN PUBLIC PROCESS IN 2017.

AND SO, WHENEVER WE TALK ABOUT THOSE REGIONAL WATER PLANS, IT'S NOT SOMETHING WHERE WE TRY TO GET ALL OF THE PUBLIC INPUT WITHIN A THREE MONTH PERIOD AND THEN GO OUT FOR PUBLIC COMMENT FOR THREE MONTHS AND THEN WE'RE DONE IN SIX MONTHS.

RIGHT NOW, THEY ARE WORKING ON THEIR 2026 WATER PLAN.

AND THEY ARE STARTING THE PROCESS FOR THAT AS WE SPEAK.

SO NOW, I APPRECIATE THEM AND EVERY ONE OF THE COMMISSIONERS AND MY FELLOW JUDGE. I HAVE TO TELL YOU, TO THIS POINT, COMMISSIONER SHELF ATTENDS REGION L MEETINGS IN THE PAST. TO THIS POINT, WITH THE LCR REGION AND REGION K ON THE REGIONAL WATER BOARD PLANNING, I'M THE ONLY ONE ON THIS COURT WHO HAS EVER ATTENDED ONE OF THOSE.

'M JUST TELLING YOU THAT IT IS IMPORTANT TO ME AND IT'S VERY IMPORTANT IN MY PRESENT. AND THERE ARE PUBLIC OPEN MEETINGS AND OPPORTUNITIES VERY REGULARLY FOR US TO PARTICIPATE. AND I WOULD INVITE ANY OF MY COLLEAGUES TO PARTICIPATE IN THE BECAUSE VERY OFTEN, I FEEL LIKE I AM THE LONE VOICE STANDING UP THERE AND FIGHTING FOR THIS. AND MISS TEDDER HAS WATCHED ME GET TO SOME OF THESE INTERACTIONS.UT FOR HAYS COUNTY, WE ARE SIGNIFICANTLY UNDERREPRESENTED ON THAT BOARD.

AND WE AS A COMMISSIONERS COURT ÃÃI BELIEVE SHOULD BE MORE INVOLVED. IT IS DIRECTLY IMPACTED IN MY PRESENT AND COMMISSIONER SHELLS PRESENT.

AT THE END OF THE DAY, THE ABOUT THE WATER THAT WE ALL USE AND YOU KNOW THAT WE'VE BEEN INVOLVED.

I WANT US TO BE MORE INVOLVED. BUT IF ANYBODY ON THIS COURT DOES NOT FEEL LIKE THAT THERE IS AN OPPORTUNITY, BELIEVE ME, I CAN GET YOU THERE AND I CAN GET YOU TO SPEAK.

I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE YOU. >> THANK YOU COMMISSIONER.

>> CAN I MAKE ONE MORE COMMENT JUDGE? AND I'M NOT TRYING TO BE CRITICAL OF ANYBODY.

BUT I KNOW COMMISSIONER SHELTON MENTIONED AND MAYBE YOU DID COMMISSIONER SMITH.HAT WE RECEIVED LETTER FROM LCR A. I DID NOT RECEIVE ANYTHING AND IF IT'S IMPORTANT FOR THEM TO HAVE US REVIEW OR RE-REVIEW OR THEY HAVE SOME CONCERN WITH THE RESOLUTION. IT WOULD BE NICE TO HAVE SOME KIND OF COMMUNICATION FROM THEM.

OR SOMEONE ELSE. LIKE I SAID, THEY WERE JUST MADE AWARE OF THIS THIS MORNING THAT THERE MIGHT BE SOME

[02:10:07]

ET, THERE IS CONCERNS AND I THINK I PUTS ME IN AN UNFAIR

SITUATION. >> I COMPLETELY AGREE.

AND COMMISSIONER ANGLES B, I JUST LOOKED AT THE EMAIL THAT THEY SENT US. AND IT HAS THE WHOLE COURT ON IT. AND I THINK THAT THEY MAY HAVE PUT THE WRONG ADDRESS FOR YOU. I'M LOOKING AT RIGHT NOW.

>> ONE WAS THAT SENT? >> IT WAS ACTUALLY SENT ON

AUGUST 3 AT 11:30 9 AM. >> OKAY.

SO, AS FAR AS ATTENDING MEETINGS AND BEING PRODUCTIVE, I HAVE ALSO ATTENDED YOUR MEETINGS AND OTHER WATER MEETINGS. I ATTENDED LOTS OF

>> WE'RE BACK FROM A SHORT RECESS AND WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO FIRST IS WHAT NUMBERS ARE THOSE?

>> K3 AND J4. >> PLEASE OPEN K-3 NJ FOUR.

WE ARE HERE TODAY TO REQUEST THE COURT TO SET PUBLIC HEARINGS ON TWO NEW PETS THAT HAVE BEEN PROPOSED BY DEVELOPER. AND TO AUTHORIZE THE MAILING AND PUBLICATION OF NOTICE AND RELATION TO THIS PUBLIC HEARINGS. LET ME TAKE A PLACEBO NORTH.

THAT BID IS BEING REQUESTED AND PROPOSED BY THE DEVELOPER OF OUR CURRENT LUCY MEANT THAT WE HAVE.

THEY ARE ALREADY GOING AND WELL UNDERWAY.

LUCY MET NORTH WILL CONSIST OF APPROXIMATELY 600 AND A LITTLE OVER 684 ACRES. IT IS LOCATED NORTH OF THE RANCH 12. BASICALLY ACROSS THE HIGHWAY FROM THE CURRENT LUCY MET DEVELOPMENT.

AND THERE IS A MAP AND BACK UP WITH THE PETITION THAT SHOWS WITH METES AND BOUNDS LEGAL DESCRIPTION AS WELL AS A PICTURE OF WHERE THE PROPOSED PIT WOULD BE LOCATED.

THE DEVELOPERS ARE REQUESTING ESTIMATED 60 MILLION IN RELATION TO LUCY MET LUCY MET NORTH PAID.

AND JUST AS A REFRESHER PAID, PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT.

IS GENERALLY CONSISTS OF PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS THAT INCLUDE THINGS SUCH AS PARKS AND OPEN SPACE.

TRAILS ÃÃPAVILIONS, WALKWAYS, IRRIGATION.

WASTEWATER AND WATER. WATER IMPROVEMENTS.

THINGS OF THAT NATURE. STREETS AND ROADWAYS ETC. WHAT DEVELOPER IS REQUESTING TODAY AND WHAT WE ARE REQUESTING IS FOR US TO SET A PUBLIC HEARING, WHICH WOULD TAKE PLACE AT 9 AM ON AUGUST 30. WE WOULD BE IN THE REGULAR COMMISSION OF CORE AGENDA AND TO OFFER THE MAILING AND PUBLICATION OF THE NOTICE OF THE PUBLIC HEARING.

AND THAT NOTICE GOES INTO THE NEWSPAPER.

SO EVERYONE CAN SEE AND IT'S ALSO MAILED TO THE LAND OWNERS IN THE PROPOSED PUBLIC IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT AREA.

>> BEFORE YOU GET TOO FAR. >> SURE.

>> I WOULD ASK THAT YOU MAKE AN EDIT AND HAVE A 10 AM TO BE MORE REALISTIC WHEN IT COULD POSSIBLY BE SEEN AND HEARD.

IF THAT IS NOT TOO MUCH TROUBLE.

[02:15:01]

MAKE IT 10 AM INSTEAD OF 9 AM. >> WE CAN DO THAT.

>> YES. I WILL MAKE MYSELF A NOTE REAL QUICK. SAME GENERAL CONCEPT WITH THE NEXT ITEM. BUT SAME GENERAL CONCEPT.

>> YOU MUST OPEN THAT ONE.> WE'VE OPENED THAT.

>> LOOSING THE SOUTH IS AN ESTIMATED JUST UNDER 321 ACRES.

DEVELOPERS REQUESTING 40 MILLION IN RELATION TO LUCY MYSELF. SAME THING.

WE REQUEST A PUBLIC HEARING AT 10 AM.

ON AUGUST 30 AS WELL. AND ASKING THE COURT TO AUTHORIZE THE MAILING AND PUBLICATION OF NOTICE TO THIS NOTICE IN THE PROPOSED PIT AREA.

THIS ONE IS A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT IN THAT IF YOU LOOK AT THE MAP IN THE BOUNDARY DESTRUCTION.

LUCY MISS SOUTH ÃÃIT IS SITUATED OVER TO YOURSELF ÃÃ SOUTH SIDE OF THE CURRENTLY SEMA DISTRICT.

THE PROPOSAL OF LUCY MISS SOUTH.

PERSONALLY SENTIMENTALLY. AND CURRENTLY SEMA PIT DISPATCH SYSTEM WHAT WE WOULD DO WITH THAT ONE IF THE COURT CHOOSES TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THE CREATION OF LUCY MET SOUTH IS THAT WE WOULD AMEND THE PIT FINANCING AGREEMENT TO APPROVE CAPITOL ASSESSMENTS TO THE ORIGINAL SEMA PIT.

FOR LACK OF A BETTER WORD PUTTING IT.

AND I'M HAPPY TO GO INTO MORE DETAIL.

ACTUALLY HOUSTON AND BOND COUNSEL HERE IN CASE WE HAVE MORE DETAILED QUESTIONS. AGAIN, TODAY IS REALLY JUST FOCUSED ON SETTING THE PUBLIC HEARING AND CALLING FOR THE PUBLIC HEARING IN GETTING NOTICE OUT.ND WE WOULD HAVE THE ON AUGUST 30 AFTER NOTICE HAS GOT TO THE PUBLIC TO DISCUSS IT FURTHER. AND DEVELOPERS ALSO ARE HERE IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS MAYOR CALLS IS HERE IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS. , TO CLEAR CASE IN POINT?

>> WILL BE BACK ON THE 30TH TO DISCUSS IN DETAIL.

>> MR. ENGELS BE? >> I JUST APPRECIATE WHAT YOU CALLED. THAT FIRST ISSUE WILL BE TAKEN OFF AND THEY WILL NOT BE THAT DOUBLE CORRECT TAXATION OR

WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL IT. >> YES, THANK YOU.

>> THANK YOU FOR PUTTING ALL THE WORK IN.

THIS HAS BEEN A TIME-CONSUMING EFFORT.

>> WE HAVE A GREAT TEAM ON OUR SITE AND CONSULTANTS ARE GREAT.

DEVELOPERS WORK GREAT WITH US. ND JUST A GENTLE REMINDER THAT ALL THE PIT MATTERS ARE FUNDED BY THE DEVELOPER.

>> COMMISSIONER SMITH?> EVERY TIME YOU LOOK AT THESE, I SINCERELY APPRECIATE THE AMOUNT OF MAN HOURS AND TIMES THAT

THIS TAKES. >> 12,000 HOURS.

AND WOMEN HOURS. >> FOR OFFICE OF GENERAL COUNSEL.

[LAUGHTER] >> AND WHY I LIKE THESE SO MUCH IS BECAUSE WE TALKED ON AND OFF ABOUT OUR CORE ABOUT GROWTH PAYING FOR GROWTH. HAVING TO FOOT THE BILL ON ADDITIONAL RESIDENTS WHEN THEY PUT THE BILL TO GET HERE.

THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT THESE CONCEPTS DO WITH AIDES.

THEY TRULY HAVE THOSE INDIVIDUALS THAT ARE COMING HERE PAYING THEIR WAY INSTEAD OF HAVING US DO IT FOR THEM.

THAT'S THE REASON WHY WE SUPPORT THEM.

>> BEFORE WE HAD THE PUBLIC PFORM, I HAVE A STRONG REQUEST.

I THINK PAGES ARE AS STATED. A MAGNIFICENT TOOL.

THEY REALLY ARE. THEY ARE MAGNIFICENT TOOL.

I KNOW YOU'VE GOT OVER AS A COUNSEL.

WHEN SOMEONE IS PURCHASING THE PROPERTY ÃÃTHAT THEY HAVE TO SIGN DISCLAIMERS KNOWING THAT THEY HAVE WHATEVER DOLLAR AMOUNT 20 TO 30,000 EXTRA MOUNTAINTOP OF THE PURCHASE.

THERE IS NO DECEPTION GOING ON. I'M VERY HAPPY AND COMFORTABLE WITH ALL THOSE LIGHTS AND SPACES IN THE WAY THAT IT'S ALL BEING HANDLED. WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO DO AS IN THE LAST LEG OF THIS JOURNEY SHARING AND COMMUNICATING AND CLARIFYING IS TO HAVE SOME REAL RUDIMENTARY ILLUSTRATIONS AND AN EXECUTIVE SESSION, YOU HAVE SHOWN SOME REALLY GREAT COMPARABLES. AND SO, FOR ALL THAT COMMUNICATION WITH THE COMMUNITY PIECE.

I WOULD LOVE IF YOU WOULD HAVE SOME, WHETHER IT BE A SLIDESHOW FOR AN EASEL. WHATEVER MAKES SENSE.

SO THAT FOLKS NOT THAT DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT PIGS SO THAT THEY KNOW WHAT IT IS. MOST EASILY.

WHEN YOU TAKE CARE OF ÃÃALL STRAIGHTEN OUT THE SCREE SHE.

IT'S BETTER TO TAKE CARE OF THE REST OR SOME KIND OF WAY LIKE THAT. THE ONE THAT WE NEARLY SPIT ONCE WE SHARE WITH THEM IN THE MOST LIMITS WAY POSSIBLE.

[02:20:07]

I THINK WE ALL BENEFIT FROM JUST SHARING AND TURNING THE LIGHTS ON SO THAT THE BOGEYMAN IDEA OF A PID CAN GO AWAY.

THANK YOU. MAKES SENSE, RIGHT COMMISSIONERS TO MAKE REASONABLE ASK? OOD. IF THERE'S NOTHING ELSE JORDAN?

>> [INDISCERNIBLE] >>

WE HAVE HAD MANY INTERACTIONS AND COMMUNICATIONS TO CLARIFY SOME OF THAT DATA. AND TODAY, THEY WILL TELL US MORE ABOUT THEIR MARKET SURVEYING AND HOW THEY COMMUNICATE OUT WITH OUR MARKETS.

I HAVE GIVEN THEM THE TAX SALARY SURVEY OF ELECTED OFFICIALS. AN OPTION COULD BE THAT WE PULL ELECTED OFFICIAL SURVEY AWAY FROM THEM.

ND WE DO THAT INTERNALLY. AND WE CAN DO THAT THIS WEEK.

AND HAVE WHAT THOSE AVERAGE NUMBERS ARE.

IF THAT IS SOMETHING THAT THE COURT IS INTERESTED IN PULLING AWAY FROM THEM. IF IT IS INDICATED BY THEM THIS AFTERNOON THEY MAY STRUGGLE MEETING THOSE DEADLINES IN TWO

WEEKS. >> I WAS ASKING VICKI.

IS THERE A WAY WE CAN DO INTERNALLY AND HAVE THEM DO IT AND MAKE THE ADJUSTMENT IN THE FOLLOWING YEAR?

>> ABSOLUTELY. THEY'RE GOING TO USE THE SAME DATA THAT WE WOULD USE. I HAVE GIVEN THEM THE TAX SALARY SURVEY. THAT IS WHAT I WOULD USE PICK.

>> I WOULD GO INTO ANY TERM INTERNALLY JUST TO GET THEIRS

BACK AND EARLIER. >> I CAN WORK WITH THEM ON WHAT WE COME UP WITH INTERNALLY. THEY COULD QUICKLY THAT IT.

AND WE COULD COME TO COURT WITH THAT DATA.

>> I LIKE YOUR HYBRID SUGGESTION, WHICH SOUNDS LIKE A LET ME HELP THEM ALONG SO THAT THEY CAN BE READY.

AND MAYBE YOU CAN DISCUSS THAT WITH THEM TO SAY WE WILL HELP YOU AND SUPPORT YOU ON THIS VERY TIME SENSITIVE CRUNCH PIECE. BUT I WOULD LIKE IT TO COME

FROM THEM PERSONALLY. >> COMMISSIONERS?

>> I WOULD AGREE. THE MORE DATA WE HAVE BEFORE YOU MAKE ANY FINANCIAL DECISION, THE BETTER WE ARE GOING TO BE. I JUST KNOW IT'S OUR FAULT THAT WE ARE BEHIND. I KNOW IT'S THE COUNTY'S FAULT FOR NOT GETTING THEM THE INFORMATION THAT THEY NEEDED IN A TIMELY FASHION OR AT LEAST THAT'S HOW I UNDERSTAND AT THIS POINT. THAT BEING THE CASE, WE ARE ALSO PAYING THEM A HANDSOME SUM OF MONEY TO GET THE JOB DONE.

>> THAT IS RIGHT. >> AND SO, I THINK WE ARE IN A SITUATION WHERE WE HAVE TO BE DEMANDING ON THE VENDOR AND SAY LOOK, WE NEED THIS BY A DATE CERTAIN.

ICKI,IT MIGHT BE IN A BETTER POSITION TO SAY THIS.

A DATE CERTAIN IS THE DATE WE NEED TO HAVE THIS CERTAIN INFORMATION. I DON'T WANT TO WALK IN ON THE 23RD AND VOTE ON SOMETHING AND MAYBE GETTING THE INFORMATION ON THE 22ND. I WOULD MUCH RATHER HAVE IT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. I KNOW ALL THIS WORK.

AND I KNOW THAT IS DEMANDING ON THE VENDOR.

WE NEED IT. >> OKAY.

CAN WE POSSIBLY GET IT BY NEXT TUESDAY?

>> I WILL ASK HIM. >> IT WOULD GIVE US AT LEAST A FULL WEEK TO GO OVER IT.> YOU CAN GET WHAT I COME UP WITH ON TUESDAY FOR SURE. I WILL CERTAINLY ASK DOCTOR LONG THAT THIS AFTERNOON. SO, THE MINUTE THAT HE RECEIVED MY MESSAGE ABOUT THE ELECTED OFFICIALS AND THE EXPEDITIOUS DEADLINE AND WHY, WE HAVE THE DEADLINE.

HE WAS LOOKING AT THE DATA FILE AND WHICH ONES ARE INCLUDED.

WHICH ONES ARE NOT, BECAUSE THERE ARE SOME THAT ARE NOT INCLUDED. THE JUDGES THAT HAVE THEIR SALARY SET. OTHERWISE.

AS BEST I CAN TELL, WE ARE A PRIORITY FOR MAGGOT.

THEY UNDERSTAND THE DELAY THAT WE EXPERIENCED THAT FIRST AND WE ARE COMMUNICATING EVERY DAY ABOUT THE PROJECT.

>> IT'S COMPLEX SHERRY. WE ALL KNOW IT'S COMPLEX.

WE NOTE COMPLEX AND IT'S NOT JUST WHITTLE AWAY AT SOME STUFF AND SEND IT BACK. IT IS SO COMPLEX AND SO, WE DO NOT WANT SOMEONE VIEWING THIS FOOTAGE THINKING THAT WE THINKING NEGLIGIBLY ARE BOTCHING THE PERFORMANCE.

NO, NO, NO. WE'RE JUST DOING THE TIME CRUNCH. DOCTOR LONG HAS DONE NOTHING

WRONG. >> ABSOLUTELY.

>> THANK YOU SHERRY. >> THANK YOU.

>> AND SO, MOVING ON BY THE RULE CONSENT OF PAY.

>> ALONG THOSE SAME LINES, THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL DEPARTMENTS THAT REQUESTED INCENTIVE PAY FROM EMPLOYEES.

MAINLY THE SERVICE OR IN THE DEPARTMENTS.

WITH THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY. SO THERE HAS BEEN SOME COMMUNICATION WITH SOME OF THE DEPARTMENTS ONE CONFIRMATION.

THAT IS SOMETHING THAT IS INCLUDED IN THE COMPENSATION STUDY. YOUR INCENTIVE PAY.

AS PART OF THIS TOTAL COMPENSATION.

[02:35:01]

>> SOMETHING DIFFERENT THEN. I THINK THAT IS FAIR.> JUDGE, I WOULD BE SUPPORTIVE AS WELL, BUT MY QUESTION IS HOW DO

WE VERIFY THAT? >> LIKE THE REST OF THIS STUFF,

RIGHT? >> WE WOULD DEPARTMENT THE OF THE TRUST. HOW DO I VERIFY THIS?

>> MY POINT IS THAT AS WE LOOK AT ÃÃAS WE LOOK AT THIS, I WOULD HOPE THAT WE HAVE SOME KIND OF VERIFICATION PROCESS IF WE HAVE INCENTIVIZED PAY FOR SECOND LANGUAGE.

I'M VERY SUPPORTIVE OF INCENTIVIZED PAY FOR SECOND LIQUIDS.ESPECIALLY IN OUR SERVICE AREA.

I JUST WANT TO VERIFY THAT WE ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING IN A

SECOND. >> COURSE.> OF COURSE, I BELIEVE AND I'M GLAD YOU FULLY SUPPORT IT.

BUT I BELIEVE OUR DEPARTMENT HAS ÃTHIS IS WHAT SAYING YOU WANT TO MICROMANAGE BY SAYING THIS, BUT I BELIEVE THE DEPARTMENT HAS HAD THEIR BECAUSE WE TRUST THEM AND SO I HONESTLY FEEL PERSONALLY COMFORTABLE WITH THE DEPARTMENT SAYING THAT THIS IS THE INDIVIDUAL DESIGNATED TO ADHERE TO THE CONVERSATION FORT. I PERSONALLY FEEL THAT WAY

ABOUT IT. >> I WOULD IMAGINE THAT THERE WOULD BE A POLICY THAT WOULD COME BACK THAT WOULD OUTLINE WHAT THOSE REQUIREMENTS WERE AND I NEED ON HOW TO DOCUMENT

THE NEED FOR THAT. >> ELECTED.

>> LIKE COLLECTIVE-BARGAINING HAS THOSE.

>> ANYTHING ELSE ON THE COMMISSIONERS BEFORE WE WALK

OFF THE LIST? >> I GUESS THEY WILL BRING US

THE AMOUNT OR WHATEVER. >> DELAY WHICH PURPORTS THINK COLLECTIVE-BARGAINING HAS A SET AMOUNT FOR THAT KIND OF THING.

>> THEY DO.> I BELIEVE IT'S INCLUDED AND IN THE SALARY STUDY. I THINK SOME OF THE DEPARTMENTS JUST WANTED CONFIRMATION THAT THAT WAS SOMETHING THAT WAS BEING CONSIDERED. I JUST WANTED TO BRING THAT TO YOUR ATTENTION. YES.

I JUST SPOKE WITH MORE OF AN IT AND DEALT WAS EXPERIENCING SOME CRISIS ON SEPTEMBER 1. I JUST WANTED TO GET YOU A HEADS UP THAT THAT WOULD BE COMING UP ON THIS SEPTEMBER 20.

THE DAY THAT YOU ADOPT THE BUDGET.

WE WILL HAVE SOME MINIMAL INCREASES THAT WE WILL HAVE TO CONCLUDE. NEXT BUDGET WORKSHOP.

THIS AUGUST 16 AT 11. TO DATE, WE HAVE THE COUNTY CLERK SIGNED UP. AND POTENTIALLY THE RETIREE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS AND THERE ARE TWO SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCIES THAT WILL BE ADDRESSING COURT NEXT WEEK.

AS YOU KNOW, HISTORICALLY THE RECOMMENDED BUDGET HAS REMAINED FLAT FOR SOCIAL SERVICES. FOR THE COURT TO DECIDE WHERE TO PUT THOSE INCREASES IF ANY. THIS BUDGET DOES HAVE 25,000 SET ASIDE FOR NEW AGENCIES OR INCREASES TO OTHER SOCIAL

SERVICE AGENCY BUDGETS. >> WHAT ELSE?

>> QUESTIONS, COMMENTS, CONCERNS?

>> THANK YOU VICKI ALWAYS. YOU ARE A MAGNIFICENT CONTRIBUTION TO THIS PROCESS. I GOT HERE FOUR YEARS AGO AND I WAS SO GRATEFUL TO HAVE HAD ACCESS TO YOU AND [INDISCERNIBLE] BECAUSE YOU GUYS ARE TRULY THE BACKBONE OF THIS EFFORT. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

>> SO MOVED. >> SECOND PICK.

>> WHAT WAS THE REASON FOR THAT CHOICE?

>> SO JUDGE, I'VE SPOKEN WITH THEM A COUPLE OF TIMES.

ND I THINK THAT THEY CAN REALLY HELP US DEVELOP THIS PROJECT AS WELL. AS PROVIDE COMMUNITY INPUT, WHICH IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. AS I WAS DISCUSSING WITH THEM AND LOOKING AT THIS PARTICULAR PROJECT ÃÃIT'S KIND OF JUST AS I BECAME AWARE AND THOUGHT THAT MAYBE WE SHOULD LOOK AT THIS MAY BE A LITTLE BIT LARGER THAN JUST THE CAPE PROPERTY.

I'M HOPING THAT WE CAN INCORPORATE THIS AS WE MOVE FORWARD. BUT, JUST TO GIVE THE COURT AN IDEA OF WHAT I WAS THINKING, THIS IS REALLY CLOSE TO HIGHWAY 123. WE HAVE FOUR SCHOOLS OFF OF HIGHWAY 123. YOU GO UP A LITTLE FURTHER.

ACTUALLY, IT'S BETWEEN THERE. OUNTY ROAD 266 OR THE OLD BATRA HIGHWAY. TO THE RIGHT THERE AND THERE IS THE HIGH SCHOOL. AND SO, I THOUGHT WHAT A GREAT IDEA TO PUT SOME TRAIL SYSTEMS AND TO PROVIDE SAFETY FOR THOSE STUDENTS THAT HAVE TO WALK TO SCHOOL FOR OUR RESIDENTS TO ENJOY AND PROVIDE THE CONDUCTIVITY TO THE EMERALD CROWN TRIP POSSIBLY.

ND JUST TO HAVE CONNECTIVITY TO THE WEST SIDE OF I 95.

I THOUGHT THAT IT'S HAPPENING IN OTHER PARTS OF OUR COUNTY AND IT CAN HAPPEN HERE ALSO. AND SO, JUST AFTER SPEAKING TO OUR DORO, I BELIEVE THEY CAN HELP US MOVE THAT PROJECT FORWARD AND REALLY EXCITED TO WORK WITH THEM.

>> YOU ARE MAKING MY HEART GO PITTER PATTER.

PITTER PATTER. I'M SO EXCITED.

I THINK YOU ARE DOING A MAGNIFICENT JOB.

YOU ONLY MY PRAISE, BUT I JUST WANTED TO SAY OUT LOUD.

SO WONDERFUL. >> ARE THEY ADDING SIDEWALKS TO

THIS? >> I THINK IT'S JUST SOMETHING

TO CONSIDER. >> SOME OF THOSE ARE CONSIDERED HAZARDOUS ROUTES. SO, IF YOU HAD SIDEWALKS, THEN YOU LOSE BUS SERVICE TO THE SUBDIVISIONS.

SO I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU KEEP ON TOP OF THOSE

VARIOUS ONES NOW. >> I VISION WAS THE TRAIL SYSTEM AND SO, WE CAN STILL GIVE THEM THE ABILITY TO WALK SAFELY TO SCHOOL. YOU SEE WHILE I SEE A LOT OF KIDS WALKING ALONG HIGHWAY 123. NO SHOULDERS, WALKING IN THE GRASS AND IT'S JUST A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION.

SO, I'M HAPPY WE CAN IMPROVE THAT WHILE ALSO PROVIDING THE PARK. YES.

>> YOU KNOW? >> THAT IS GREAT.

>> THE NEAR PARK. >> OKAY.

OMMISSIONERS, ANY OTHER COMMENTS? THEY DONE A LOT OF WORK ON THE TRAILS PROJECT.

[02:45:03]

>> SO MOVED. >> SECOND.

>> CORPORATION MEMBERS, I HAVE A COUPLE OF SUGGESTED ITEMS THEY CAME FROM THE AUDITORS OFFICE.

I JUST WANTED TO NOTE BECAUSE IT'S NOT WHAT IS IN THE BACKUP.

E WANT TO MAKE REFERENCE TO THE ASSISTANCE LISTING NUMBER, WHICH IS A NUMBER THAT IS PARTICULAR TO HAYES COUNTY.

WE WOULD LIKE TO ATTACH THE PROJECT DOCUMENT AS AN EXHIBIT TO THE AGREEMENT TO THAT THERE IS MORE SPECIFICITY.

AND THERE IS SOME CLARIFICATION NEEDED.

WE ARE GOING TO WORK WITH ERIC BONING ON THIS AND I'VE ALREADY CORRESPONDED WITH HIM THIS MORNING ABOUT IT.

BUT WE WILL ADD SOME LEG WHICH THAT WILL ÃÃTHAT CLARIFIES WHETHER OR NOT THE RECIPIENTS OF FUNDING.

THIS IS REALLY ON BOTH OF THE ITEMS THAT YOU ARE ABOUT TO HAVE. THIS ONE AND THE NEXT ONE.

I WILL REPEAT ON THE NEXT ONE. WHETHER OR NOT THEY WILL BE SUBJECTED TO A SINGLE AUDIT OR THE SINGLE AUDIT ACT.

AND THEN ALSO, A CLARIFICATION REGARDING THE PROCESS FOR RECEIVING PAYMENTS.OR EACH. WHETHER THAT WOULD BE REIMBURSEMENT BASED OR IT WOULD BE UP FRONT HOW IT'S GOING TO BE MONITORED. THOSE KINDS OF THINGS.

THAT LANGUAGE, WHICH IS REALLY NOT SUBSTANTIVE TO THE AGREEMENT THAT YOU'RE CONSIDERING TODAY.

IT DOES HELP OFFER SOME CLARITY.

IT WILL BE ADDED TO IF YOU WOULD APPROVE THAT.> AND JUDGE, WE OF COURSE HAD A GREAT DISCUSSION ON THE BENEFIT OF THESE TWO AMBULANCES WOULD HAVE ON THIS AGENCY.

WE KNOW WITH THE GROWTH PART OF THE COUNTY, WE ARE GOING TO CONTINUE TO SEE MORE SERVICE RECALLS.

THIS ONE WOULD GIVE THE COUNTY THE ABILITY TO HAVE AN AMBULANCE AVAILABLE IN THOSE HIGH-VOLUME TIMES.

ALSO IF ONE GOES DOWN, HE AND ONE AVAILABLE, I THINK IT'S HAPPENED IN THE PAST. AND SO.

YES. AND A FASTER RESPONSE TIME.

AND SO I THINK YOU KNOW, THIS CAN BE A GREAT BENEFIT.

WE SEE THE EFFECTS THAT COVID HAD TO THE ORGANIZATION AND THE RESPONSE TIMES.ND OTHER AREAS.

AND SO, IF THERE ANY QUESTIONS? >> THE USE OF FEDERAL FUNDS.

I CANNOT AGREE WITH YOU MORE PER.

>> I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THIS FORWARD AND THANK YOU COMMISSIONER SHALL FIRST SING ON THE BOARD.

I KNOW IT'S A LOT OF WORK AND I REALLY APPRECIATE YOU BEING A VOICE ON THE BOARD FOR US ON THEIR WITH THE COMMISSIONERS COURT. I WILL SAY THAT IN THE NEAR FUTURE, I ANTICIPATE THAT WE WILL HAVE ANOTHER ONE OF THESE THROUGH ARPA FUNDS.'M STILL STRUGGLING WITH HOW IT WOULD BE DONE BECAUSE IT WOULD BE SPECIFICALLY FOR ESD ONE.

AN ESD ONE OWNS AND MAINTAINS ALL OF THE EQUIPMENT THAT SAN MARCUS HAYS COUNTY USES IN THE ESD.

IT IS A DIFFERENT SITUATION. BUT, WE ARE WORKING THROUGH WHETHER THAT VEHICLE WOULD GO TO SAN MARCUS HAYS COUNTY OR ESD ONE FOR USE BY THEM. I WOULD NOT ANTICIPATE.

I JUST WANT TO MENTION AND I WOULD ANTICIPATE A VERY, VERY SIMILAR AND A VERY SIMILAR AGENDA ITEM THERE IN THE

[K6.

>> SO MOVED. >> SECOND.

>> JUDGE, THIS IS ÃÃI KNOW WE TALKED ABOUT THIS LAST WEEK, BUT THIS IS REALLY EXCITING FOR ME.

AND I SAY THAT BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN WORKING ON THIS FOR ABOUT A YEAR AND 1/2. ALONG WITH COMMISSIONER JONES DIRECTLY WITH THE HAYES WOMEN'S CALL WEALTH CENTER.HIS FUNDING WILL TRULY MAKE THIS WHOLE FROM WHAT HAPPENED DURING COVID. RELATIVE TO THE BUILDING AND CONSTRUCTION OF THEIR ÃÃOF THE TRANSITIONAL HOUSING UNITS THAT THEY HAVE THERE. IT'S REALLY GOING TO HELP A LOT OF FAMILIES AND IT'S GOING TO GIVE THEM THE FOOT TO ACTUALLY LOOK AT EXPANDING THERE BECAUSE THEY HAVE THAT REIMBURSEMENT FROM THIS PLUS THE MONEY THAT THEY HAVE FUN RAISED TO TRY AND COVER THOSE ADDITIONAL EXPENSES.

I AM EXCITED ABOUT IT. I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING WHERE THEY HAD WITH THIS FUNDING.

AND SINCE WE ALREADY TESTED AS A COUNTY COMMITTED TO HELPING FUND THAT TRANSITIONAL HOUSING BEFORE, I THINK WE HAVE COMMITTED $600,000 PRIOR TO THAT OVER MULTIPLE YEARS.

TRULY HAYES COUNTY, IF NOT WILL BE IF NOT THE LARGEST ONE OF THE LARGEST CONTRIBUTORS TO THE FACILITIES THAT THEY HAVE THERE. AND THIS IS JUST ANOTHER STEP IN THAT PROCESS. AGAIN, THANK YOU COMMISSIONER JONES FOR WORKING ON THIS WITH ME.

I REALLY APPRECIATE IT. >> THIS IS A GREAT PROJECT FOR

[02:50:03]

BUT WE KNOW HOW MUCH IT COST FROM WHEN THEY STARTED TO WHEN THEY FINISH. THIS NUMBER OF 644,000 WOULD BE ALMOST DOUBLE. IT RECORDS BUILDING SUPPLY AND HOLD IT TIGHT ON THE PRICES THAT BEGIN.

EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE THIS PRICE INCREASES.

IT DOES NOT PASS THOSE ON AND THAT IS IT IS THE SAME AMOUNT AS WILL WE ARE PARTICIPATING IN.

I WOULD LIKE TO THANK MCCOY AS ALWAYS.

WHENEVER YOU HAVE A LOCAL THINK FORCE, YOU DON'T SEE LOWE'S OR IN HOME DEPOT. WE SEE MCCOY'S THERE.

THEY WERE ALWAYS THERE TO STEP ON UP THROUGH HAYS COUNTY.

>> AND I APPRECIATE IT. COUNTYWIDE, AS WE WORKED ON THIS ON THIS PROJECT, SPECIFICALLY, YOU HAVE HAD PEOPLE FROM EVERY CORNER OF THE COUNTY STEP UP.

AND AGAIN, NO MORE ÃÃNOT WANT MORE SO THAN MCCOY HAS TURNED THAT PROCESS. I WAS AMAZED WHENEVER WE HAVE SAT DOWN WITH THEIR GENERAL CONTRACTOR TO TRY AND PULL OUT WHAT NUMBER WENT UP.

MEAN, IT'S VERY CLEAR ÃÃIN THE DOCUMENTATION THAT WAS PUT FORTH. THAT Y'ALL WERE ABLE TO SEE LAST WEEK SPECIFICALLY WITH THIS INDIVIDUAL PRICE INCREASES IN COST OVERRUNS SPECIFICALLY RELATED TO COVID.

AND SO, AS I WOULD ENCOURAGE MY COLLEAGUES TO LOOK AT, AND OTHER POSSIBILITIES FOR USAGE OF THIS COVID FUNDS, THAT IS AN AREA THAT IS REALLY ÃÃI DON'T THINK IT'S BEING SUBSCRIBE TO VERY MUCH. AND IT'S AN AREA WHERE WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO REALLY HAVE AN IMPACT ON OUR COMMUNITY JUST

LIKE THIS. >> PLEASE CALL THE ROLL.

WHAT LETTER IS IT? >> AND.

>> AND ONE. PLEASE OPEN AND ONE PIT.

>> AND ONE. ELECTION RELATED TO THE BURN

BAN. >>

[INDISCERNIBLE] >> GOOD AFTERNOON JUDGE AND COMMISSIONERS MARCO THIS HAYS FIRE MARSHAL.

HAYES COUNTY IS UNDER A BURN BAN.

KPI IS AT 739. AS I STATED LAST WEEK, WE ARE AT THAT POINT IN OUR DROUGHT WHERE WE ARE BARELY TAKING UP A NUMBER OR TWO PER DAY. A REPORT THAT I SENT OUT TO YOU YESTERDAY, WE WERE AT 748. TODAY IS 749.

SOME AREAS OF THE COUNTY DRIEST AREA OF THE COUNTY OBVIOUSLY, THE NORTH AND WEST.UR AT 777.

THE KEY BD EYEDROP INDEX STOP AT 800.

SO, WE ARE APPROACHING THAT POINT VERY FAST.

JUST TO GIVE YOU A FEW UPDATES ON SOME OF THE FIRES AROUND COUNTY, WE WILL START WITH THE SMOKE RIDER FIRE.

WHICH PURRED OUT AT THE HENLEY AREA.

THE ONLINE CODE COUNTY FIND. THERE'S 100 PERCENT CONTAINED.

THE TRIP WAS OVER 1200 ACRES. CURRENTLY, THE HERMOSA FIRE AND THE WIMBERLEY AREA IS 98 PERCENT CONTAINMENT TODAY.

I'VE SPOKE TO ASSISTANT CHIEF ROBERTS THIS MORNING.

THEY WERE EXPECTING TO GO TO 100 PERCENT CONTAINMENT YESTERDAY. THERE WAS SOME SMOKE THAT POPPED UP YESTERDAY AFTERNOON. AS WELL AS THIS MORNING.

AND CREWS WERE OUT THERE. STATE RESOURCES WILL BE ON THAT FIRE FOR ABOUT ANOTHER 55 MINUTES.

AND THEN THEY WILL BE LEAVING AND MOVING ON TO OTHER FIRES.

>> WHAT WAS THE TOTAL ACREAGE FOR THAT ONE?

DO YOU KNOW? >> WE FINALLY CALCULATED AT ABOUT 44 ACRES. ONCE THEY WERE ABLE TO GET SOME LINES PUT IN, THEY WERE ABLE TO DO GPS AND COMING IN WITH THAT

43 AND 44 ACRES. >> WE HAD OUR GOOD QUESTION COMMISSIONER? AND I WANT TO CLARIFY THAT WE HAVE TWO DIFFERENT LINES OF SIGHT.

AND WE HAD THE A AND M FORD SERVICE.

DESCRIBE IT THIS WAY TO ME. LIKE THEY WERE HAVING TO MEASURE SWISS CHEESE AND SO, THEY HAD HOLES THAT WE WERE MEASURING AND THEN WHEN IT DIDN'T COMMIT TELLING ME DIRECTLY THAT THE HIGHER ACREAGE, BECAUSE THEY WERE JUST CREATING THE OVERALL BOUNDARY. NEVERTHELESS, I AM MOST GRATEFUL FOR ALL THOSE FOLKS, AS FAR AS FLORIDA LITERALLY COMING FROM AS FAR AS FLORIDA TO HELP US.

AND WE HAD NO LOSS OF LIFE AND NO LOSS OF HOMES.

I'M SO GRATEFUL TO OUR FIRST RESPONDERS.

[02:55:02]

THERE. >> MAKING A GREAT POINT TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE RESOURCES. DEALING WITH THESE TWO FIRES JUST FROM LOCALLY INCLUDING ONE THAT WAS REALLY ON THE COUNTY LINE. THEY REQUIRED A LOT OF RESOURCES FROM EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT.

ALL OF OUR LOCAL FIRE DEPARTMENTS.

EMS AND SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT AND CONSTABLE'S OFFICE.HEY WERE ALL ÃÃTHEY ARE ALL WILLING TO HELP.

WE SAW THAT IN FINLEY AND WE WANT TO MAKE SURE EVERYBODY FROM ACROSS THE COUNTY, MENTION FROM ALL OF THE COUNTRY.

THAT SHOWED UP AND HELPED. >> THE OTHER THING AND MAYBE YOU CAN MENTION THE FIRE AS WELL.

>> I WAS NOT.

WAS NOT NOT PICK. >> I WAS NOT THERE WHEN THE FIRE OCCURRED. SO, THE INFORMATION THAT I HAVE FROM THERE IS SECOND A THING. BUT 200 ACRES, IS THAT RIGHT?

>> ADMIT THAT WAS ROUGHLY THE ACREAGE.

>> [INDISCERNIBLE]

>> HE TALKING ABOUT THE ARMBRUSTER?

>> 63. >> 63 ACRES.

SO I WOULD JUST SAY THAT AT LEAST SOME PORTION OF MY PRESENT OR FORMER PRESENT HAD THREE FIRES.

WHICH HAD FOR THE LAST MONTH. THINK THREE OF THEM WERE EITHER IN MY PRESENT OR FORMER PRECINCT.

AND I CAN TELL YOU THAT I'VE BEEN OUT WITH EVERYONE AND THAT IS COUNTING AND I'M ALSO COUNTING THE MULTIPLE DISTORT RANGE FIRE OR WHATEVER THE STORM WHICH FIRE WAS.

THE GATLIN CREEK FIRE. >> WAS RATED 400.

>> READ 400 ACRES. AND SO, I CAN TELL YOU I COULD TAKE THE JUDGES POINT. WE HAD BULLDOZERS FOR TENNESSEE. WE HAD FIREFIGHTERS FROM

FLORIDA, FROM GEORGIA. >> SERVICE AND EVERYBODY.

>> I SPOKE TO A NUMBER OF THOSE FOLKS AND THE TESTED I KNOW THAT WE MENTIONED IT BEFORE. I CANNOT SAY THANK YOU ENOUGH TO OUR SEARCH FOLKS. EVERY TIME I WAS OUT THERE ÃÃ THEY WERE WORKING. EVERY TIME THERE IS A NEED, THEY WERE THERE AND TRYING TO ADDRESS IT.

THE OTHER THING THAT I WANT TO SAY IS THAT WHENEVER PEOPLE START REACHING OUT TO ME TO ASK HOW TO HELP.

I DON'T THINK PEOPLE UNDERSTAND HOW MUCH INDIVIDUAL BUSINESSES AND OUR COMMUNITY STEPPED UP. AND I WILL USE PIGPEN BARBECUE AND DRIPPING SPRINGS AS AN EXAMPLE.

THE FIRST NIGHT OF THE HENLEY FIRE FOR THE SMOKE RIDER FIRE.

MR. JONES AND I BOUGHT AND DELIVER THEM TO THE CRUISE IN THE FIELD. AND WE DROVE AROUND AND WHEN WE GOT BACK, THERE WERE SANDWICHES DIFFERENT SAME.

BARBECUE SANDWICHES THAT THEY HAD JUST DROPPED OFF.

I STOPPED BY THERE THE NEXT NIGHT AND SAID HEY.

DO YOU REALLY JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU FOR STEPPING UP TO HELP THE COMMUNITY. HE SAID WHENEVER YOU NEED ANYTHING, YOU LET ME KNOW. IF YOU NEED BREAKFAST OR ANYTHING. LET ME KNOW.

WE HAD THE FIRE. >> HE WELL, THEY STEPPED UP THAT MORNING. HEY CITY STORE PROVIDED ON SUNDAY.

[INDISCERNIBLE] THE MEAT MORE THAN HUNDRED AND 40 TACOS. HUNDRED AND 50 TACOS THAT MORNING. WITH HASTE CITY STORE STEPPING UP. FOR ASKING.

WITHOUT ASKING. I KNOW THAT THEY WANT TO BE PART OF THE COMMUNITY. WE'RE VERY BLESSED TO HAVE THEM PURCHASE THE SHARE OF EXPENSE THAT THEY PUT OUT PERSONALLY.

UT AT 150 MILS TO DO 50 OR 60 SECOND LUNCHES WITH BARBECUES AND WITCHES AND FRENCH FRIES AND THINGS LIKE THAT.

IN THESE LOCAL CITIZENS COULD NOT HAVE DONE MORE.

WE HAVE THE DRIP AND JEEP GROUP.

IF YOU NEED FOLKS TO DELIVER IN THESE AREAS, THAT YOU CANNOT GET TO COME THE FOUR-WHEEL-DRIVE.

WE WILL DELIVER SUPPLIES. I WOULD ANTICIPATE MOVING FORWARD AND I TALKED TO MR. JONES ABOUT THIS.

ONE OF THE REAL MEANS THEY ARE YES THESE ARE COMING UP OUT OF THIS WITH IS HOSES. I CANNOT TELL YOU HOW MANY HOSES WITH MELTED. LAST WEEK.

TWO WEEKS. AND SO,.

>> I'M GOING TO HAVE AN AGENDA ITEM TO TRY AND BUY HOSES FOR ESD'S FOR THE NEXT WEEK OR TWO. I JUST WANT TO THANK OUR COMMUNITY. I KNOW I'M RAMBLING HERE, BUT WATCHING THEM IN ACTION AND WATCHING THEM JUST SHOW UP.

OU KNOW? WE HAD FOLKS JUST SHOW UP WITH 20 CASES OF WATER. WE HAD FOLKS YOU KNOW, ONE OF OUR ESD FOLKS DRIVE UP AND SAY I JUST LEFT HEB B NEED WITH THOSE SUPPLIES. AND I GET 20 CASES OF WATER IN

[03:00:01]

I SOUGHT FOUR TIMES AND IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS AND THREE WEEKS.

IT JUST AMAZES ME. >> YOU COULD TALK FOR AN HOUR.

WE'RE NOT FINISHED. BECAUSE EVEN MIKE AND I WERE PULLING UP AND WE ARE CALLING TRANSPORTATION AND THANK YOU JERRY. WE HAVE TRANSPORTATION AND FEEL. YOU COULD TALK FOR AN HOUR AND THINK EVERYBODY INVOLVED. MISSED SUMMARY FOR SHARPER DISPATCHERS. IT JUST GOES ON AND ON.

>> I KNOW IS A BIG WORD WHEN THAT FIRE EMERGED IN MOST OF THE FIRE TO START. THERE IS ONE ACCEPTING IT AT THAT TIME AND INFLUENCE IN YOU TWISTED SOME ARMS AND ABOUT 30 MINUTES LATER, YOU HAVE ABOUT THREE OTHERS THAT SHOW UP.

>> I APPRECIATE YOU USING YOUR INFLUENCE AND CONTEXT TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN. WE NEED WATER AND GATORADE.

TELL ME TO TAKE IT OFF. WE WERE TO GET MORE THAN WE CAN HANDLE RIGHT NOW. LIKE PEOPLE SAID THEY DID.

STEP UP AND WE HAVE A GREAT JOB.

A FIRE STARTER FROM A CATTLE TRAILER HITTING OVERHEAD.

WIRE BASICALLY. CATTLE ÃTHIS [INDISCERNIBLE] HITTING OVERHEAD LINE.

WE ARE NOT GOING TO BE GOING FOR NOW.

JUST BECAUSE OF THAT. JUST BECAUSE OF HOW EASILY

THESE FIRES CAN START. >> WE ARE AT THAT POINT RIGHT NOW. ANY LITTLE SPARK AND LITERALLY BECOME A LARGE DISASTROUS FIRE. THEY GIVE US AN IDEA OF HOW EASY THE HOUSE OF CARDS CAN FALL.

HE SAME DAY OF THE SMOKE RIDER FIRE, GILLESPIE COUNTY WAS FIGHTING THE BIG SKY FIRE. THAT FIRE REACHED THE SIZE OF JUST UNDER 1500 ACRES. IT STARTED EARLIER IN WHICH THE A LOT OF RESOURCES AWAY FROM BLANCO COUNTY.LANCO COUNTY WAS OVER HELPING GILLESPIE COUNTY AND BLANCO COUNTY HAD A FIRE OF THEIR OWN. HAYS COUNTY WANT TO GO HELP BLANCO COUNTY. DAY TWO OF THE SMOKE RIDER FIRE IS WHERE WE HAVE THE HERMOSA FIRE.

AND IT'S WE ARE RELYING QUITE A BIT ON STATE RESOURCES.

DAY THREE OF THE HERMOSA FIRE. THERE WAS A LARGE FIRE THAT STARTED IN WASHINGTON COUNTY. THE BURNS COUNTY CREEK FIRE.

THAT IS JUST UNDER A THOUSAND ACRES.

AND STILL BURNING TODAY REALLY. STATE RESOURCES ARE TRYING TO SHUFFLE TO MEET THE NEED IN THE AREA OVER THERE.

SO, IT'S NOT JUST A FIRE YOU ARE ON A PER WEEK AND THEN GO TO THE NEXT ONE. IT'S A FIRE TODAY.

IT'S A FIRE THIS AFTERNOON THIS AFTERNOON, FIRE THAT AFTERNOON.

SO, RESOURCES OR ACROSS THE STATE.

TO MENTION THE COUNTY.OMING. STRETCHED THINLY TO MEET THE NEED AND THAT THE MILLIONS OF BOTH THE NEIGHBORS AND IT HAS.

>> HOW GOOD OUR RAIN CHANCES COMING UP OVER THE WEEKEND?

>> NOT GREAT. NOT VERY GOOD.

I'M CURRENTLY WATCHING JUST AS HE PUT IT THAT WAY.

I'M CURRENTLY WATCHING A DEVELOPMENT THAT IS COME OFF THE WEST COAST OF AFRICA THAT IS PUSHING ACROSS THE ATLANTIC AT THIS TIME. WE'LL SEE WHERE THAT LANDS IN THE CARIBBEAN AND WHAT THE CHANCES ARE OF IT MAKING INTO

THE GULF. >> HOWARD LIKES BEING A GREAT STOPPING POINT? [LAUGHTER] .

WHILE WE DO NEED THE RAIN, I CERTAINLY DON'T WANT TO GO FROM EXTREME TRAPS TO FLOODING BASIS.

THAT USUALLY HAPPENS. >> SO.

>> WELL, THE GET TO GUARANTEE WITH 1 SEPTEMBER THE SEASON IS MINUTES KAREN AND THAT THEY GENERALLY.

[LAUGHTER] >> I WILL ÃÃI HAVE TO PASS THIS ON. SO, WHENEVER I WAS AT THE HENLEY FIRE, THEIR WORK AND NUMBER OF THAT'S JUST THERE WERE A NUMBER OF FIREFIGHTERS FROM OTHER COUNTIES THAT HAD BEEN AT THE GATLING CREEK FIRE. THAT CAME OVER.

I HAVE HIT 35 GROUPS THAT CAME OVER AND HELP US WITH THOSE TWO FIRES AND PROBABLY MORE. AS I WAS DRIVING AROUND, THEY SAID THE THING ABOUT HAYS COUNTY, THEY HAVE TWO EXTREMES IN OUR LEADERSHIP. I THINK IF YOU GET A HARD TIME.

I SAID WELL, WHAT YOU MEAN? AND THEY SAID YOU KNOW, THE JUDGE CAME UP TO OUR GATLING CREEK FIRE AND WAS IN BERMUDA SHORTS AND BOAT SHOES. HE SAID MIKE JONES CAME OUT TO THE AND THEN FIRE PRETTY WAS IN A THREE-PIECE SUIT.

LAUGHTER] HE WAS LIKE YOU HAVE THE TWO EXTREMES IN YOUR LEADERSHIP OF EMERGENCY SERVICES.
