AND COMMISSIONER WALDEN'S MADE THE SECOND.

IS THERE ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? ALL IN FAVOR.

I HAVE A PROCLAMATION TO READ.

UH, I WILL SAY FIRST BEFORE I DO THIS, THAT I, I, I'M ON THE ROTATION MAGISTRATE AT THE JAIL, AND OBVIOUSLY THERE'S CHALLENGES THERE THAT WE SEE AND, YOU KNOW, WE'RE FORTUNATE TO HAVE, UH, SHERIFF LAIER HERE, OBVIOUSLY.

UM, HE UNDERSTANDS THIS, UH, MORE THAN ANYBODY REALLY.

AND, UH, WE'RE GRATEFUL TO HAVE A, A LAW ENFORCEMENT THAT REALLY DOES EMPHASIZE THIS AND REALLY DOES TRY TO HELP.

AND, UH, IT SHOWS EVERY TIME I GO TO THE, UH, MAGISTRATE.

SO THANK YOU SHERIFF AS WELL.

UH, THE PROCLAMATION IS OVERDOSE AWARENESS DAY, WHEREAS OVERDOSE AWARENESS DAY IS IN INTERNATIONALLY RECOGNIZED ON AUGUST 31ST EACH YEAR.

TO RAISE AWARENESS OF DRUG OVERDOSE, REDUCES THE STIGMA OF DRUG RELATED DEATHS AND ACKNOWLEDGES THE GRIEF FELT BY FAMILIES AND FRIENDS, REMEMBERING THOSE WHO HAVE DIED OR HAD A PERMANENT INJURY AS A RESULT OF A DRUG OVERDOSE.

AND WHEREAS OUR COUNTY HAS LONG SUFFERED FROM THE RAVAGES OF DRUG ABUSE AND UNFORTUNATELY ASSOCIATED DRUG OVERDOSE DEATHS, WHEREAS EACH YEAR, NEARLY 5,000 TEXANS LOSE THEIR LIVES TO DRUG OVERDOSES.

AND WHEREAS PARKER COUNTY HAS BEEN IMPACTED BY DOZENS OF OVER DRUG OVERDOSE DEATHS IN RECENT YEARS, AND WHEREAS THE RISING PREVALENCE OF HEROIN IN OUR REGION IN THE LAST DECADE IN FENTANYL IN THE LAST FEW YEARS HAS EXACERBATED THE PROBLEM.

AND WHEREAS OUR GOAL AS A COUNTY IS IT MUST BE TO ELIMINATE DEADLY DRUG OVERDOSE ALTOGETHER.

AN IMPORTANT WAY TO ACHIEVE THAT GOAL IS TO INCREASE AWARENESS OF THE DANGERS OF DRUG

[00:05:01]

AND WHEREAS IMPORTANT TO RECOGNIZE THE SIGNS OF SOMEONE STRUGGLING IN SUBSTANCE ABUSE AS SUCH PERSON WILL OFTEN HAVE PERSONALITY CHANGES, HEALTH PROBLEMS, RELATIONSHIP PROBLEMS, DIFFICULTY AT WORK AND FINANCIAL HARDSHIPS.

AND WHEREAS ADDICTION TOUCHES PEOPLE OF ALL BACKGROUNDS BY RACE, RELIGION, EDUCATION, OR SOCIAL CLASS, PEOPLE FROM ALL WALKS OF LIFE HAVE SUFFERED FROM SUBSTANCE ABUSE OR KNOWN SOMEONE WHO HAS.

AND WHEREAS THE PEOPLE WHO SUFFER FROM SUBSTANCE ABUSE AND MOTHERS, FATHERS, SISTERS, BROTHERS AND FRIENDS, AND MANY, IT IS UP TO OUR COMMUNITY TO MAKE STRIDES TO REDUCE THE STIGMA ASSOCIATED WITH SUBSTANCE ABUSE TO BRING ABOUT EDUCATION AND HEALING.

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT PARKER COUNTY DOES HEREBY PROCLAIM THE 31ST DAY OF AUGUST 24 IS OVERDOSE FOR AWARENESS DAY IN PARKER COUNTY AND CALLS THIS TO THE ATTENTION OF OUR CITIZENS.

SO PROCLAIMED THE 26TH DAY OF AUGUST, 2024.

THIS IS AN RFP THAT WE PUT OUT, UM, EVERY FOUR YEARS.

THIS IS A RFP, THAT IS FOR, UM, IN CASE OF ANY TYPE OF NATURAL DISASTER THAT THE COUNTY, UM, EVENT, AN EVENT THAT THE COUNTY INCURS THAT HAS OVER A HUNDRED THOUSAND CUBIC YARDS OF DEBRIS TO REMOVE.

UM, THIS IS FEMA REQUIRED.

WE CANNOT USE THE, UM, DISASTER CO-OP CONTRACTS FOR SOME REASON.

UM, SO WE DO THIS JUST IN CASE WE EVER HAVE AN ISSUE.

KNOCK ON WOOD, WE HAVEN'T SO FAR.

UM, AND I AM RE RECOMMENDING AWARD OF THIS WE DO TO THREE DIFFERENT, UM, ORGANIZATIONS OR COMPANIES JUST IN CASE.

UM, THEY ARE ALREADY ASSISTING OTHER COUNTIES IN THE REGION FOR ANY KIND OF NATURAL DISASTER.

SO I'M RECOMMENDING AWARD TO CTC DISASTER RESPONSE.

I'M SORRY.

I'M RECOMMENDING PRIMARY AWARD TO TFR ENTERPRISES SECONDARY TO C'S ENVIRONMENTAL AND TERTIARY TO DRC EMERGENCY SERVICES.

WE DID RECEIVE, UM, RESPONSES FROM CTC DISASTER RESPONSE AND LONE STAR HAZMAT AND LOOKS GREAT SERVICES AS WELL.

UM, THEIR EXPERIENCE WAS NOT AT THE SAME LEVEL AS THE OTHER THREE COMPANIES.

MOTION MADE BY COMMISSIONER WALDEN.

SECOND BY COMMISSIONER HOLT.

ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? ALL IN FAVOR CARRIES FIVE OH.

MOVE TO ITEM FIVE

[5.A. Discuss/Take action for quality control testing requirements on a new road construction. (Commissioner Hale) (Part 1 of 2)]

COMMISSIONER HILL.

YEAH, I THINK, UH, BOSCO IS NOT AVAILABLE TODAY, SO WE HAVE YEAH, COME ON UP, DUSTIN, IF YOU WOULD.

SURE.

UM, AS WE SPOKE, I BELIEVE IN OUR LAST COURT, UH, REGARDING, UH, NEW ROAD CONSTRUCTION, IT'LL BE COUNTY ROADS, UM, IN PRECINCT FOUR, I THINK SOME OF THE OTHER ONES WE'RE STARTING TO GET A LOT OF CONCRETE ROADS AND REALLY EXPENSIVE ROADS.

UM, AND I THINK THAT IT'S SOMETHING OUR COUNTY'S NEEDING ARE SOME, UH, GUIDELINES AND TESTING REQUIREMENTS.

SO, UH, THE FOLKS AT FREEZING NICHOLS HAVE BEEN HELPING US TO COME UP WITH SOMETHING.

SO I'D LIKE FOR DUSTIN TO EXPLAIN OR GO INTO A LITTLE MORE DETAIL, PLEASE.

ABSOLUTELY.

SO, UM, THE TESTING SCHEDULE THAT WE'VE GOT HERE IS THE SAME SCHEDULE THAT WE'VE BEEN, THAT WE'VE HAD IN THE, UH, ALL THE ROADWAY PROJECTS FOR THE LAST SEVERAL BOND PROGRAMS. AND SO, AND IT FOLLOWS THE DOT TESTING SCHEDULE WITH A COUPLE MODIFICATIONS JUST 'CAUSE DOT TENDS TO DO BIGGER PROJECTS.

UM, BUT THE IDEA IS TO REALLY PROTECT THE INTEREST OF THE TAXPAYERS AND MAKE SURE THAT, UM, WE'RE GETTING QUALITY ROADS AND THAT, UH, WE'RE DOING THE TESTING NECESSARY TO, TO ENSURE THAT I HAD A QUESTION.

UM, THE TESTING THAT DUSTIN HAS OUTLINED THERE IS, UH, MORE STRINGENT THAN IF WE'RE BUILDING OUR ROADS OURSELVES.

SO THIS CAN BE STRICTLY CONCRETE ROADS.

SO IF WE WERE TO BUILD A CONCRETE ROAD, THEN WE WOULD'VE TO BUILD TO THESE SPECS.

WE, UH, VISITED WITH BRIAN GRIMES LAST WEEK, AND ALL THE CITIES HAVE ADOPTED COGS STANDARDS.

MM-HMM.

AND I, AND I THINK THESE ARE MUST BE SIMILAR TO COG, THEY'RE VERY SIMILAR TO COGS.

I MEAN THEY'RE, AND SO THIS IS JUST A STARTING POINT.

WE CAN LOOK AT WHAT, WHAT COG HAS.

IS IT MORE STRINGENT THAN COG? LESS STRINGENT THAN COG? WE COULD LOOK INTO THAT.

IT'S VERY SIMILAR.

THE, ONE OF THE BIGGER DIFFERENCES BETWEEN COG AND TXDOT IS COG HAS UTILITIES, WHEREAS TXDOT 10 STOCKS HAVE UTILITIES, SO THEY GOT MORE STUFF THAT COVERS

[00:15:01]

THE WATER AND SEWER ON THE COG SIDE.

BUT AS FAR AS THE PAVEMENT GOES, THEY'RE, THEY'RE FAIRLY SIMILAR.

BUT, BUT LARRY'S A HUNDRED PERCENT CORRECT THAT IF WE DO ADOPT THIS, IF WE BUILD A CONCRETE ROAD, YEAH, THAT'S GONNA BE THE SPECS THAT WE'LL HAVE TO UTILIZE FOR PURPOSES OF COUNTY CONSTRUCTION AS WELL.

WE'RE NOT GONNA BE BUILDING THE IN PRECINCT ONE.

I, I KNOW THAT'S THE AMOUNT OF MONEY THAT I GET FROM, I GUESS I WASN'T READING IT THAT WAY.

DUSTIN WAS, I WAS ALSO READING THERE ABOUT COMPACTED EIGHT INCH BASE COMPACTED IN THERE.

AND THEN SO THE, I MEAN, THERE IS THE, UM, REQUIREMENT FOR A GEOTECHNICAL REPORT AND ITS RECOMMENDATION.

SO IN SOME CASES WE UNDERSTAND THAT, UM, THE SUBGRADE FOR WHAT WORKS IN PRECINCT ONE MAY NOT BE THE SAME AS PRECINCT FOUR, AND THAT'S WHERE THE GEOTECH WOULD COME INTO PLAY.

AND SO, UM, BUT IT SETS A MINIMUM REQUIREMENT OF EIGHT INCHES OF, UH, A TREATED UPGRADE.

WHAT, WHAT I WANT, MY INTENTION HERE IS TO BRING THIS FOR DISCUSSION BECAUSE WE'VE IDENTIFIED A PRETTY BIG REASON FOR THESE.

UH, SOME SPECIFIC, VERY SPECIFIC, UM, IN THAT LAST PARAGRAPH IS WHAT I THINK WE LIKE TO CALL IS OUR COMMON SENSE CLAUSE.

AND THERE IS SOME, UH, COMMISSIONER DISCRETION.

AND I THINK THAT, UH, THE SPECS THAT WE'VE BEEN UTILIZING IN PRECINCT FOUR, AND I'M PRETTY SURE YOU HAVE FOR THESE OPIX ROADS AND, UH, CHIP SEAL ARE, UH, YOU KNOW, THOSE, THOSE HAVE BEEN HOLDING UP REALLY WELL AND DOING THEIR JOB.

UH, THIS IS PRIMARILY TO ADDRESS THE, THE HUGE COSTS THAT COME ALONG WITH THESE BIG THOROUGHFARE CONCRETE ROADS THAT WE'RE GETTING IN PRECINCT FOR LEFT AND RIGHT THAT, UH, I WANNA MAKE SURE THAT THAT SUBGRADE AND THAT ROAD IS, IS BUILT TO A STANDARD THAT THE TAXPAYERS HERE AREN'T GETTING HUNG HAVING TO MAINTAIN AND, UH, TAKE CARE OF WITH REALLY BUDGETS THAT WOULD, COULD WIPE OUT OUR WHOLE PRECINCT BUDGET WITH ONE ISSUE.

SO THAT'S WHAT, THAT'S WHAT THIS IS FOR.

I DO WANT IT FOR A DISCUSSION AS, AS, UH, MR. FOREST, UH, JUST SAID, THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE CAN ADD TO OR AMEND.

UH, BUT I'M LOOKING FOR A STARTING POINT BECAUSE WE HAVE THINGS GOING ON RIGHT NOW THAT, UH, I DON'T WANT THE, THE TAXPAYERS, UH, GETTING HUNG WITH IF IT'S NOT UP STANDARD.

I HAVE A SUBDIVISION ALREADY IN PRECINCT ONE THAT'S GOT A HUNDRED HOMES IN IT.

THAT'S CONCRETE.

I'VE ONLY GOT ONE SO FAR, BUT, BUT THE DEVELOPER I THINK DID A GOOD JOB ON IT.

BUT, UH, WE'LL SEE.

I DO AS WELL.

OH YEAH.

I DIDN'T KNOW IF EVERYBODY HAD OH, THAT'S TRUE CONCRETE.

YEP.

SOME NEW ONES RIGHT NOW COMING IN.

MM-HMM.

ANY, ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? MOTION MADE BY COMMISSIONER HA SECOND BY COMMISSIONER CONLEY? ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? ALL IN FAVOR CARRIES FIVE.

OH, THANK YOU.

ITEM SIX C ON A PUBLIC HEARING FOR 20 24, 20 25 FISCAL YEAR PROPOSED BUDGET.

MOVE TO

[6.C. Public Hearing for 2024-2025 fiscal year proposed budget. (Judge Deen) PUBLIC HEARING]

I'M GONNA OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING ON THIS AT NINE 19.

IS THERE ANYONE HERE THAT WOULD LIKE TO COME AND SPEAK ON, ON OUR BUDGET THAT WE'RE CURRENTLY PROPOSING? JUST A COUPLE OF COMMENTS.

I, I GUESS THIS PROPOSED BUDGET, UH, THAT WE HAVE HERE IS, UH, UH, STILL IN, IN PROGRESS AND, AND WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT IS THE, THE BUDGET AS IT WAS PROPOSED.

AND IT'S A, IT'S A LEGAL REQUIREMENT THAT WE HAVE A PUBLIC HEARING ON THAT TODAY, BUT FOR ANYBODY WATCHING LISTENING OR IN THE CROWD, WE'RE A LONG WAYS FROM FINISHED.

WELL, YOU KNOW, I'LL ADD TO THAT AND THANK YOU, COMMISSIONER.

THE, THE, WE'RE IN THE PROCESS OF THAT AND, AND MAKING SOME TOUGH DECISIONS.

AND ONE OF THE, THE KEYS IS, IS, AND IT ALWAYS, WE ALWAYS COME BACK TO THAT IS IT'S YOUR MONEY.

AND, AND SO ONE OF THE THINGS WE'RE VERY STRINGENT ON IS BEFORE WE JUST RASHLY MAKE A DECISION ON SOMETHING, WE BE SURE WE'RE DIGESTING EVERYTHING AND ALL THE COUNTY'S NEEDS.

AND, UH, WE'LL BE HAVING SOME UPCOMING MEETINGS.

I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO COME BECAUSE WE DID PROPOSE THE COUNTY JUDGE'S OFFICE PROPOSED A NO NEW TAX RATE.

WHETHER WE CAN ACHIEVE THAT OR NOT, UH, AGAIN, DEPENDS ON, UH, WHERE WE ARE WITH OUR FUND BALANCE AND THE NEEDS OF THE COUNTY.

BUT I ASSURE YOU THAT, THAT, THAT EVERY ONE OF US UP HERE ARE, ARE GONNA BE VERY CONSERVATIVE AND VERY CAUTIOUS OF SPENDING YOUR MONEY.

SO, UM, JUST THAT SAID, THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS.

THANK YOU FOR THOSE COMMENTS, JUDGE, UM, THAT, THAT REFLECTS THE A, A ATTITUDE OF THIS COMMISSIONER'S COURT.

SO IS THERE ANYONE HERE THAT WOULD LIKE TO COME AND SPEAK ON THAT? MR. HEISER? UH, RICHARD HEISER, 1001 THISTLE HILL.

I, UH, I WANT TO THANK THE THE COURT AGAIN BECAUSE I, I'VE BEEN HERE BEFORE.

I'VE, I'VE TALKED

[00:20:01]

ABOUT TAX RATES AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE, AND I THINK IT'S VERY IMPORTANT THAT NO NEW REVENUE RATE IS, AND I ENCOURAGE IT BECAUSE WE ARE BLESSED HERE IN PARKER COUNTY.

THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE COMING IN, THERE'S A LOT OF NEW CONSTRUCTION, THERE'S A LOT OF THINGS GOING ON THAT INCREASES THAT BUDGET EVEN BEYOND AND AS, AS THIS PARTICULAR PROPOSED BUDGET SHOWS, UM, UH, THERE'S, UH, YOU KNOW, THERE'S MONIES THERE.

SO, UH, I GUESS MY, MY WHOLE THING IS, AND I UNDERSTAND THAT YOU'RE NOT THERE YET, BUT I DO ENCOURAGE THIS, THE COURT TO LOOK AT AND STAY AT IF, AS BEST YOU CAN WITH THE NO NEW REVENUE RATE.

UNDERSTOOD.

ANYBODY ELSE THAT, UH, WOULD LIKE TO COME UP AND SPEAK? THIS IS YOUR TIME, BRADY, WOULD YOU LIKE TO COME UP? I'M, I'M JUST, I'M NOT CALLING YOU OUT, IT'S JUST ANYTHING YOU WOULD LIKE TO ADD TO THIS ALSO.

JUST, I THOUGHT I'D MAKE SURE I, ANYBODY ELSE? I'M GONNA CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AT 9 22, IF I MIGHT JUDGE, I'LL SEE, UH, OTHER TAXING ENTITIES AMONG, UH, OUT IN THE COUNTY THAT ARE ADVERTISING THE, THAT THEY'RE UTILIZING LAST YEAR'S RATE.

THERE'S, THERE'S NO CHANGE IN THE RATE FROM LAST YEAR.

THAT'S A TAX INCREASE.

THE, UH, THE NO NEW REVENUE RATE IS THE ONLY RATE THAT GENERATES THE SAME AMOUNT OF MONEY.

THAT'S A, THAT'S A VERY GOOD POINT.

UM, BECAUSE I, I THINK ONE OF THE THINGS THAT, THAT IS GOOD IF WE CAN ACHIEVE THIS, AND AGAIN, IT'S ACHIEVABLE, WE WILL, BUT IT'S TO SET A PRECEDENT FOR THIS, THIS COUNTY THAT, UH, YOUR PROPERTY VALUES ARE CONTINUING TO GO UP AND THERE'S, WE DON'T HAVE A INVOLVEMENT IN THAT.

WE DON'T HAVE A SAY IN THAT, BUT, UH, WE'RE THE RECIPIENT OF THAT.

AND SO WHAT WE DO IS, IS, IS, IS COMMISSIONER WALDEN IS, IS NOTED, THE NO NEW REVENUE RATE IS WHAT, AND WHEN WE, UH, IT, WHAT IT DOES IS ESTABLISH THE SAME REVENUE THAT WE'D GOT THE PRIOR YEAR.

AND SO WE ADJUST THE RATE ACCORDINGLY TO REFLECT THAT WITH THE INCREASE IN PROPERTY VALUES.

AND SO WE, WE, WE, WE TRY TO STAY OUTTA YOUR POCKET AS BEST WE CAN.

WE WANT TO KEEP YOUR MONEY IN YOUR POCKET AND, AND TRY TO SET A PRECEDENT FOR THE OTHER TAXING ENTITIES.

YOU KNOW, IT'S EASY TO RAISE YOUR TAXES, BUT IT'S HARDER WHEN YOU ROLL UP YOUR SLEEVES AND SIT HERE AND FIGHT AND SCRATCH AND FIGURE OUT HOW TO, YOU KNOW, KEEP, KEEP AS CONSERVATIVE AS WE CAN YET BEING THE FIFTH FASTEST GROWING COUNTY IN THE NATION.

AND WE'RE IN THE BOTTOM 10%, UH, THE COUNTIES IN THE STATE OF THE LOWEST TAX RATE.

SO WHEN YOU HAVE THAT, YOU'RE, YOU'RE POISED FOR THAT GROWTH AND PREPARED TO DEAL WITH IT, BUT YET NOT GOING OVERBOARD AND NOT DOING SOMETHING THAT'S, THAT'S FOOLISH, BUT STAYING WITHIN YOUR MEANS, AND THAT'S SOMETHING THAT'S VERY IMPORTANT TO US.

WE ACKNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTAND THE GROWTH IN PROPERTY VALUES AND WE'RE TRYING TO WORK WITH YOU AS BEST WE CAN.

IS THERE ANY OTHER COMMENTS THAT YEAH, JUST ANOTHER THING.

I, THE COUNTY PORTION OF EVERYBODY'S TAX BILL IS SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 15 AND 20% OF YOUR TOTAL TAX BILL.

IN, IN THE PAST, WHEN I CALCULATED MINE, IT WAS 16% OF MY TOTAL PROPERTY TAX BILL IS THE COUNTY PORTION.

AND, UH, OF THAT 16%, UH, VAST MAJORITY OF IT, AROUND 80% GOES TO LAW ENFORCEMENT IN THE COURT SYSTEM.

AND, UH, YET WITH, WITH THE GOOD WORK THAT, THAT THIS COURT DOES, I SEE MORE SCRUTINY ON WHAT WE ARE ABLE TO DO.

I SEE MORE SCRUTINY ON OUR PROCESS THAN ANY OTHER TAXING ENTITY IN PARKER COUNTY.

AND, UH, WHETHER THAT'S FORTUNATE OR UNFORTUNATE, I'M NOT SURE, BUT I'LL TELL YOU, WE'RE, WE'RE PROUD TO SIT HERE IN FRONT OF EVERYBODY, UH, BROADCAST, UH, LIVE STREAM, EVERY, EVERY MEETING THAT WE HAVE, EVERY, UH, UH, WORKSHOP THAT WE HAVE ON BUDGET.

AND, AND I DON'T SEE THAT SAME SCRUTINY OF OTHER TAXING ENTITIES.

AND THAT'S SAD BECAUSE WE'RE A VERY SMALL PORTION OF, OF WHAT YOUR TOTAL TAX BILL IS SO THAT YOU'RE DEAD ON TO THAT.

I THINK WE'RE ABOUT 15% OF THE OVERALL TAX RATE AND, UM, NOT HERE TO POINT FINGERS AT THOSE.

WHEN YOU HAVE, IF YOU LIVE IN A CITY, IF YOU HAVE AN ESD, UM, YOU KNOW, THE SCHOOL TAXES OBVIOUSLY ARE AN IMPACT.

UM, I'M NOT HERE TO POINT FINGERS AT THAT, BUT WHAT WE'RE WE REALLY WANT TO DO IS SET A PRECEDENT WITH YOU CAN OPERATE WITHIN YOUR MEANS AND, AND ACHIEVE THE SERVICE LEVELS FOR YOUR CONSTITUENTS.

YEP.

THANK YOU FOR THAT.

ITEM D, UH, PUBLIC HEARING FOR REINVESTMENT ZONE.

OKAY, ANYTHING ELSE? OKAY, WE'LL MOVE ON TO

[6.D. Public Hearing for Reinvestment Zone. (Chris Strayer / Judge Deen) PUBLIC HEARING]

UH, IS CHRIS STRAYER HERE? THERE YOU WERE.

I DIDN'T SEE YOU BACK THERE.

COME ON NOW IN THE BACK FLOOR IS YOURS, SIR.

UH, FOR, UH, THE PROPERTIES THAT ARE OUTLINED THERE IN YOUR PACKET.

UH, SO YES, THIS IS FOR CONSIDERATION FOR THE CREATION OF A TAX ABATEMENT, UH, REINVESTMENT ZONE,

[00:25:01]

UH, THE STATE CO CODE REQUIRES US TO CREATE A REINVESTMENT ZONE FIRST BEFORE CONSIDERING ANY, UH, ABATEMENTS OR ANY OTHER, UH, INCENTIVES INSIDE OF THAT ZONE.

AND SO THIS PUBLIC HEARING, UH, IS FOR THE CREATION OF THAT ZONE.

CHRIS, I DON'T HAVE A PACKET.

WE SUPPOSED TO HAVE A PACKET, I THOUGHT IN THE PACKET THERE WAS THE RESOLUTION AND THEN, UH, TWO EXHIBITS.

TWO SURVEYS OF THE TWO PROPERTIES.

I, WELL, CHRIS, CAN YOU GO AHEAD AND IDENTIFY LOCATION? YEAH.

SO YEAH, IT'S, IT'S IN YOUR PACKET.

IT'S, UH, FAIRVIEW ROAD, UH, THERE NORTH OF I 20.

ESSENTIALLY THE PROPERTY'S JUST TO THE NORTH, THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF FAIRVIEW AND THE ACCESS ROAD.

YEAH, IT'S UNDER SIX D AND UNDER APPROVALS IN THERE.

UM, I HAVE IT.

SO WE HAVEN'T, THE COURT HAS NOT, UM, SEEN THIS, UH, THE OPTIONS WOULD BE WHAT'S THE RISK OF TABLING THIS TO ALLOW US TO DIGEST THIS A LITTLE BIT MORE? SO THERE'S TWO STEPS IN THE, IN THE ABATEMENT PROCESS.

THIS IS JUST CREATING THE ZONE IN A SUBSEQUENT MEETING.

THEN LATER IN THE FUTURE, WE WOULD COME BACK WITH THE ACTUAL, UH, ABATEMENT AGREEMENT ITSELF FOR, UH, FOR YOU TO VOTE ON.

SO THIS IS LITERALLY JUST SETTING UP THE ZONE ITSELF, UH, AND ALLOWING THE OPPORTUNITY FOR THAT PROPERTY IN ORDER THIS BUSINESS TO APPLY FOR AN ABATEMENT.

VERY WELL, IT DOESN'T OBLIGATE US, UH, TO ANYTHING.

IT DOESN'T OBLIGATE US TO ANY ABATEMENTS THAT WOULD BE PROVIDED.

IT JUST SITS AT THE BASE UP OF THAT'S FURTHER DISCUSSION AND APPROVALS OF THAT LITERALLY DRAWING A BOX ON A MAP THAT SAYS INSIDE OF THAT BOX, UH, YOU'RE ALLOWED TO CONSIDER ABATEMENTS INCENTIVES.

AND THAT'S, UH, SOUTH OF 20, IT IS NORTH OF 20, THE NORTHEAST CORNER OF THAT ACCESS ROAD AND FAIRVIEW, YEAH, THERE'S TWO PROPERTIES THERE.

OH, YEAH, YEAH, YEAH.

THAT'S EXHIBIT A ATE.

GOTCHA, I GOT IT.

YEP.

AND HOW MANY ACRES THAT ENCOMPASS? UH, ROUGHLY 52 51.

ONE PROPERTY IS A LITTLE OVER 24, THE OTHER IS 25, SO AROUND 50 ACRES.

I, I THINK IN THE, JUST FOR FUTURE UNDERSTANDING OF ALLOWING US TO DIGEST THIS, AND EVEN THOUGH IT'S JUST REALLY THE PRELIMINARY PART ONE, UH, IS THERE ANY WAY JUST IN THE FUTURE TO EMAIL EACH COMMISSIONER WITH THIS? SO I GUESS, I GUESS WHAT WE COULD HAVE IS, IS YOU'RE ASKING US TO APPROVE THIS ZONE AND THEN YOU'RE GONNA COME BACK LATER WITH MORE DETAILS AND, AND MORE, SO THAT IS CORRECT.

THIS IS JUST THE ZONE ITSELF, UH, FOR THE PROPERTIES.

AND THEN AT A LATER MEETING, THEN WE'LL COME BACK WITH THE ACTUAL TAX ABATEMENT AGREEMENT AND, AND ALL THAT WITH THE COMPANY INFORMATION AND THE COMPANY'S MAKING THE COMMITMENTS TO IT.

OH, AND, OKAY, I WENT THROUGH SOME OF THIS WITH AZEL A FEW YEARS BACK.

THEY DID A REINVESTMENT ZONE, AND SO I KNOW A LITTLE ABOUT IT.

A LOT ABOUT IT, AS I SAID HERE, YOU KNOW, FROM THE ASPECT OF EVEN A TAX ABATEMENT AREA, AND I AM, I AM ONE THAT I, I THINK THAT WE NEED TO HAVE, WE NEED TO HAVE INCENTIVES, YOU KNOW, TO BRING FOLKS HERE.

AND JUST SO YOU KNOW WHAT THE, THE PROCESS IS THE STATE PROCESS.

SO WE HAVE TO DO, YOU HAVE TO DO A SEVEN DAY NOTICE, UH, IN A PAPER OF GENERAL CIRCULATION, WHICH WE COMPLETED.

UH, WE ALSO HAVE TO SEND, UH, LETTERS OF NOTIFICATION TO THE OTHER TAXING ENTITIES INSIDE OF THIS, UH, PROPERTY, UH, WHICH WAS DONE AS WELL.

UH, AND THEN WE HAVE THIS MEETING, AND THEN IF WE APPROVE THE ABATEMENT, OR NOT THE, EXCUSE ME, WE APPROVE THE ZONE AT THIS MEETING, THEN WE'LL HAVE ANOTHER PUBLIC NOTICE, UH, 30 DAY PUBLIC NOTICE FOR THE CONSIDERATION OF A PROPER TAX ABATEMENT FOR THIS PROPERTY INSIDE OF THIS ZONE.

AND THEN WE'LL COME BACK 30 DAYS LATER.

SO A MEETING MOST LIKELY IN OCTOBER, UH, TO CONSIDER THAT ABATEMENT.

AND THEN WE OBVIOUSLY TAKE ALL THAT INFORMATION AND SEND IT TO THE STATE TO ALLOW FURTHER DISCUSSION ON THIS.

AS, AS WE MOVE FORWARD WITH THIS OPPORTUNITY.

UH, I WOULD, I WOULD ASK THAT WE SUPPORT THIS AND, UM, IT DOESN'T OBLIGATE US TO ANYTHING OTHER THAN ALLOW A FUTURE DISCUSSION FOR US TO COME BACK TO US BEFORE WE OBLIGATE OURSELF EVEN FURTHER.

THAT IS CORRECT.

SO I WOULD ASK, I WOULD ASK FOR A MOTION ON THIS ITEM.

YES, HONOR.

SO WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.

OH, YEAH.

I GUESS WE SHOULD DO THAT.

OR SHOULD WE? SORRY, I GOT, SO I GOT SO WRAPPED UP IN THAT THING.

I'M SEE IF THERE'S ANYBODY ELSE TO SPEAK ON.

AND I HAVE OPENED THE PUBLIC HEARING ALREADY, SO YES.

IS THERE ANYONE HERE THAT WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON THAT MORNING? AGAIN, I GUESS, UH, WHEN I READ THIS, AND I'M LEARNING

[00:30:01]

I GUESS I WHAT READING THIS, IT SAID THE COUNTY HAD ESTABLISHED GUIDELINES AND CRITERIA GOVERNING TAX ABATEMENT AGREEMENTS.

WELL, THAT DOESN'T SOUND LIKE WE'RE THAT FAR, BUT I GUESS WHAT I WANT TO DO IS, IS JUST TELL YOU I BELIEVE FIRST IN INCENTIVES, BUT, UH, THERE'S TWO THINGS ABOUT IT.

I THINK THE LENGTH OF THAT INCENTIVE AND THE PARTICIPATION OF THE COUNTY AND THE PARTICIPANT ALSO IS IMPORTANT.

NOT A HUNDRED PERCENT AS AN ABATEMENT AND NOTHING BACK FROM THE COUNTY, EXCEPT WHAT THEY SAY ARE A PROMISE, YOU KNOW, IN FUTURE FUTURE TYPES OF INFORMATION.

SO, UM, I, I DON'T KNOW, AND I GUESS YOU GUYS KNOW, UH, YOU FOLKS KNOW FROM THE ASPECT OF WHETHER THE GUIDELINES HAVE BEEN SET IN THIS KIND OF THING OR NOT, BUT, UH, I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WE BE VERY CAREFUL AS WE GO INTO THESE TAX ABATEMENT SITUATIONS AND WE LOOK AT IT FROM THE ASPECT OF BOTH THE COUNTY AND THAT PARTICIPANT, BECAUSE ALL OF THE, ALL OF THE REST OF THE TAXPAYERS ALSO PARTICIPATE.

SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

I THINK ONE OF THE THINGS, OKAY, CHRIS, IF YOU COME BACK, ONE OF THE THINGS ALSO, AND AGAIN, WE'RE WE END THE PUBLIC HEARING, UH, ONE OF THE THINGS ALSO WAS THAT RETAIL IS NEVER SUSTAINABLE GROWTH OVER TIME.

AND THAT'S WHAT SEEMED TO BE THE FOCUS IN THE PAST WHERE WE TRYING TO FOCUS ON JOBS, JOB GROWTH, JOB CREATION, HIGH WAGE JOB GROWTH, IF YOU WILL, THAT WOULD BE SUSTAINABLE.

AND ONE OF WHICH 60% OF OUR WORKFORCE GOES EAST EVERY DAY.

AND THAT CREATES A BURDEN ON OUR TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM.

AND THAT'S WHY WE'RE IN THE SITUATION, ONE OF THE REASONS WHY WE'RE IN THE SITUATION WE'RE IN.

UM, THIS WOULD HELP MINIMIZE THAT AND KEEP OUR JOBS LOCAL WHERE WE'RE LOOKING AT THOSE JOBS THAT PAY WELL TO KEEP OUR, OUR WORKFORCE HERE LOCALLY.

WOULD YOU SAY THAT THAT'S WHAT, THAT THAT'S THE DIRECTION.

IT'S, THAT'S EXACTLY WE'RE TRYING TO, TO ATTRACT INTO THE COMMUNITY.

IS THOSE FULL-TIME, UH, HIGH WAGE JOBS FOR THE RESIDENTS WHO ARE ALREADY HERE.

C CAN I ASK, CAN YOU PUT JUST A LITTLE BIT OUT THERE TO ADDRESS, UH, THE CONCERN ABOUT HAVING TEETH MM-HMM, SO THAT PEOPLE RIGHT, PERFORM WHETHER IN THESE AGREEMENTS AND CLAWBACKS OR ANY TYPE OF THINGS ON THIS NATURE THAT WAS KIND OF, YEAH, I THINK WOULD BE APPRECIATED.

SO WHAT YOU WERE REFERENCING THERE IS THE INCENTIVE POLICY.

AND SO THE, UH, THE COURT HERE HAS AN APPROVED INCENTIVE POLICY, WHICH IS VERY DESCRIPTIVE ON WHAT INCENTIVES AND WHAT ABATEMENT, UH, RATES AND TERMS, UH, CAN BE FOR, UH, INVESTMENT, FOR JOB CREATION, FOR AVERAGE WAGE.

THOSE ARE THE THINGS THAT WE LOOK FOR.

UH, AND SO THEN AS WE MOVE FORWARD WITH THE AGREEMENTS FOR THESE, THEN THERE'S CERTAIN CALLBACKS AND THINGS LIKE THAT THAT ARE PUT INTO THAT AGREEMENT SO THAT IF COMPANY X DOES NOT, UM, MEET THE CRITERIA IN WHICH THEY COMMITTED TO, THEN THE COURT HAS THE ABILITY TO TAKE ACTION ON WHETHER THAT'S, UH, TAKING, YOU KNOW, THAT YEAR OFF OF THE, THE ABATEMENT OR, UH, JUST, UH, UH, TERMINATING THE ABATEMENT ALTOGETHER.

SO THERE ARE CERTAIN SAFEGUARDS THAT WE HAVE BUILT INTO THE INCENTIVE POLICY TO MAKE SURE THAT THE COMMITMENTS ARE BEING MET BY THE COMPANY.

NO, ON THIS REINVESTMENT ZONE, IS THAT GONNA BE, SEVERAL BUSINESSES WILL BE PUT IN THAT AREA FOR THIS? IT'S JUST 1 1, 1, OKAY.

AND THE REASON WE HAVE TWO DIFFERENT PROPERTIES, UH, IN THIS ABATEMENT IS 'CAUSE THOSE PROPERTIES ARE GONNA BE COMBINED AND SO WE NEEDED TO INCORPORATE ALL OF THAT AREA.

ANYTHING ELSE? ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? ANYBODY ELSE WANNA SPEAK ON THIS ITEM BEFORE WE CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING? CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AT 9 35 AND

[6.E. Vote for approval of Reinvestment Zone. (Chris Strayer / Judge Deen)]

GO TO THE ITEM.

I WOULD ASK FOR A MOTION.

WELL, IT'S IN.

OH, OKAY.

I THOUGHT WE COULD DO THAT NEW, RIGHT? IT'S JUST A PUBLIC HEARING.

WE'LL GO TO ITEM E ON VOTE ON APPROVAL OF REVENUE INVESTMENT ZONE MOTION MADE BY COMMISSIONER HILL, SECOND BY COMMISSIONER WALDEN.

ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? ALL IN FAVOR? CARRIE FIVE VOTE.

ITEM F ON DISCUSS AND APPROVE THE APPOINTMENT OF PRESIDING, ALTERNATE JUDGES AND CENTRAL COUNT STATION PERSONNEL FOR ELECTIONS CONDUCTED IN
