[5.E. Discuss/Take action on requiring the location of water wells to be shown on the surface of all new plats based off of a recommendation from the Upper Trinity Groundwater Conservation District and authorization to add this item to our current Subdivision Rules and Regulations and take any action the court deems necessary. (Jamie Tierce / Commissioner Holt)]
TO ITEM E ON DISCUSS, TAKE ACTION.REQUIRING THE LOCATION OF WATER WELLS TO BE SHOWN ON THE SURFACE OF ALL NEW PLATS BASED OFF OF RECOMMENDATION FROM THE UPPER TRINITY GROUNDWATER CONSERVATION DISTRICT AND AUTHORIZATION TO ADD THIS ITEM TO THE CURRENT SUBDIVISION RULES AND REGULATIONS AND TAKE ANY ACTION OF THE COURT DEEMS NECESSARY.
UH, COMMISSIONER HALL, DO YOU WANT TO ADD ANYTHING TO THAT? UH, I BELIEVE JAMIE JAMIE HAS THE, UH, COMMENTARY ON THIS.
THE OPPORTUNITY HAS JUST REQUESTED THAT WE START REQUIRING DEVELOPERS TO PUT, UH, THE LOCATION OF THEIR WATER WELLS ON THE FACE OF THE PLATS.
UM, YOU KNOW, THEIR PROPERTY BOUNDARIES ARE NORMALLY 50 FEET, BUT WATER, WELL LOOK, DISTANCE IS 150 FEET.
SO NOW WE'RE RUNNING INTO SOME ISSUES WITH SOME PLATS THAT IF THEY'RE NOT ACTUALLY SHOWN ON THERE, WHEN WE SEND THEM TO THE OPPORTUNITY TO REVIEW, THEY'RE NOT AWARE OF WHERE EVERYTHING IS.
SO, UH, THEY WOULD JUST LIKE TO GET THAT REQUEST THAT THE COURT ADDS THAT.
SO I CAN UPDATE OUR RULES 'CAUSE SURVEYING COMPANIES MAY CHARGE EXTRA FOR THIS.
SO I JUST NEED IT TO BE IN WRITING THAT THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE REQUIRE.
NOW HOW DO WE COMMUNICATE THAT OUT TO THEM? UM, SO WE ARE, I ASSUME THIS GOES INTO EFFECT IMMEDIATELY.
UM, UM, IF THE, IT WOULD START AS OF TODAY IF THE COURT APPROVES IT.
WE HAVE A MOTION BY COMMISSIONER HOLT SECOND, I, COMMISSIONER CONLEY.
IS THERE ANY OTHER DISCUSSION ON THE ITEM BEFORE WE GO? IS THIS, IS THIS EXISTING WATER WELLS OR? YES, SIR.
SO WE HAD A PLAQUE COME DOWN, FOR EXAMPLE.
[00:10:01]
NOTIFICATION FROM THEM ON FRIDAY.THEY HAD AN EXISTING, WELL IT WAS PUT IN PRIOR TO 2009, AND NOW THEY'RE STATING WITH THE LOCATION THERE'S NOT ADEQUATE SPACING.
SO, UM, IT'S ACTUALLY ONE OF COMMISSIONER HALE'S.
UM, YOU KNOW, NOW THEY'RE SAYING THAT THAT WELL MAY HAVE TO BE PLUGGED BECAUSE THERE'S NOT ENOUGH DISTANCE.
SO IT'S JUST ONE EXAMPLE THAT WE'RE RUNNING INTO.
WE'D JUST LIKE TO SEE IF Y'ALL WOULD, I, I TALKED TO ONE OF THE COMMISSIONERS ON THE BOARD ABOUT THIS AND HE EXPLAINED TO ME WHY HE THOUGHT WE OUGHT TO HAVE THAT ON OUR PLATS AND IT MADE SENSE TO ME.
SO WE HAVE IT ON THE PLAT SO IT'S EASIER TO IDENTIFY, UM, IN THE OFFICE WITHOUT THEM HAVING TO DO INSPECTIONS IN THE FIELD, WHICH IS HOW THIS ONE WAS CAUGHT.
THE ONE THAT'S ON THE AGENDA FOR PRECINCT FOUR TODAY.
THEY ALREADY HAVE THE LATITUDE AND LONGITUDE DESIGNATED ON THERE.
IT'S JUST, IT HELPS THEM OUT FOR, YOU KNOW, INSTEAD OF HAVING TO GO OUT AND DO SITE VISITS, I THINK ON EACH INDIVIDUAL PLAN.
AND THEY'RE AWARE THAT SOME OF 'EM MIGHT NOT BE EXACTLY WHERE THEY'RE LOCATED ON THE PLAT, BUT I MEAN, I GUESS THAT'S UP TO THE YEAH.
SURVEYOR TO DO THE RESEARCH TO DESIGNATE IT WELL, BUT BEFORE THEY'RE DRILLED, YES.
THINGS HAPPEN AND THEY MIGHT GET MOVED.
BUT THE PLATT'S DONE WAY BEFORE THE WELLS DRILLED.
YEAH, THESE ARE JUST, UM, EXISTING WATER WELLS THAT ARE CURRENTLY ON THE PROPERTY.
SO IN THE PAST IT'S BEEN SOME DID AND SOME DIDN'T BECAUSE I'VE NOTICED BEFORE THERE WAS AN EXISTING WELL NOTED ON PLATS.
WE'RE JUST ASKING EVERYBODY TO DO THAT.
SO THERE, YEAH, WE JUST DON'T HAVE ANYTHING.
DON'T WANNA PUT THE NEW ONES ON THAT ALSO.
AND WE'RE JUST TALKING ABOUT EXISTING WEALTH.
THIS, YOU DUNNO WHERE IT'S GONNA BE.
JUST TALKING ABOUT EXISTING WEALTH.
WELL, I KNOW, YOU KNOW, ANYTHING NEW THEY HAVE TO GO IN AND GET THEIR PERMITS BEFORE THEY'RE PLATTED.
BUT SO DID MR. HOLT, DID, UH, DID THEY TALK TO YOU ABOUT THE NEW ONES COMING UP, WANTING 'EM ON THE PLATS? MY UNDERSTANDING IS THIS IS FOR EXISTING WELLS, SO YOU BUY A PIECE OF PROPERTY ALREADY T HAVE IT MARKED ON THERE.
AND THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE WILL SEE A SMALL IMPACT POSITIVE IMMEDIATELY.
BUT THEN AS TIME GOES ON AND WE CATCH UP MORE AND MORE WELLS GETTING MARKED ON PLATS, IT'LL MAKE THINGS A LOT EASIER.
WELL, THEY MUST BE WANTING 'EM ON THERE.
HE SHOWED ME A PLAT WHEREVER WELL IS ALREADY ON THERE.
I BELIEVE CERTAIN COUNTIES REQUIRE THAT WITH NEW WELLS AS WELL.
SO HOW DOES THIS AFFECT THOSE THAT MAY BE SHARING A WELL, UM, DO YOU KNOW HOW THAT'S HANDLED? DOES IT HAVE TO BE ON THE, ON THE PLAT AS WELL? THE, THE ONLY PLATS THAT WE'VE APPROVED WHERE THEY'VE BEEN SHARING WELLS MM-HMM.
AND WE'VE ONLY APPROVED, I THINK, TWO PLATS.
UH, ONE OF THOSE WAS OUT IN PRECINCT THREE AND THEY DID A ONE ACRE LOTS INDIVIDUALLY AND THEN HAD A SHARED WELL IN BETWEEN TO, FOR THE TOTAL OF THE TWO ACRES.
AND THEY ACTUALLY PRESENTED A SEPARATE EXHIBIT SHOWING, YOU KNOW, UM, WHERE ALL OF THE WELLS WERE GOING TO BE IN LOCATION TO THAT.
SO WE DID REQUIRE THEM TO, THEY DID PRESENT THAT, AND IT WAS FILED IN OF RECORD WITH THE LOCATION OF THE WELLS FOR THE SHARED WATER.
BUT THEY, THE ONLY THING THEY'VE ASKED RIGHT NOW IS THAT WE, UH, REQUIRE EXISTING WELLS TO BE SHOWN ON THE FACE OF THE PLA.
WE DIDN'T ACTUALLY DISCUSS NEW WELLS.
WELL I GUESS THAT'S COMING BECAUSE HE ALREADY SHOWED ME WHAT THEY WERE DOING.
BUT, UH, SO SOMEBODY COMES WITH A NEW PLAT, THEY'RE NOT GONNA BE REQUIRED AFTER WE DO THIS TO DETERMINE AND PUT IT ON THE PLAT WHERE THAT WELL IS, IT'S JUST ONLY FOR EXISTING.
THIS IS JUST TO ADDRESS EXISTING WATER WELLS.
WE CAN CONSIDER NEW OR PROPOSED WELLS UNDER A DIFFERENT ITEM.
ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? THANK YOU, COMMISSIONER.
ANY OTHER, ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? ALL IN FAVOR.
[5.A. Proclaim October 27 - November 2, 2024 as Texas Extension Education Association Week in Parker County. (Kathy Smith / Judge Deen)]
GONNA MOVE BACK TO ITEM FIVE A ON THE PROCLAIM OCTOBER 27TH, NOVEMBER 2ND.THE 2024 IS TEXAS EXTENSION EDUCATION ASSOCIATION WEEK IN PARKER COUNTY.
WE HAD TO COMPLETE YOUR PROCLAMATION.

AND WE HAVE THREE REALLY GOOD CLUBS AND GREAT MEMBERS, AND THEY'RE INVOLVED IN A LOT OF THINGS THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY AND COMMUNITY SERVICE, LEADERSHIP, DEVELOPMENT, EDUCATION.
AND THEY ARE A BIG HELP TO ME AS WELL.

BUT ANYWAY, UH, WE, WE'VE GOT A GOOD GROUP OF PEOPLE AND WE, THEY DO A LOT OF GOOD THINGS.
AND MA'AM, UM, I JUST WANNA LET YOU KNOW THAT THESE FINE LADIES, THEY WORK HARD FOR OUR COUNTY.
UH, AS KATHY STATED, WE HAVE THREE COUNT THREE CLUBS IN OUR COUNTY.
OUR CLUB HAS GOT MANY YEARS, MANY DECADES AS WELL.
UM, THE LADIES HAVE DONE ABOUT 5,325 VOLUNTEER HOURS THIS PAST YEAR.
AND IF WE WERE TO BE PAID FOR OUR VOLUNTEER TIME, THAT WOULD'VE COME TO $190,000 AND 400 AND $190,481 IN SALARIES.

I KNOW I PROBABLY NEED TO GO OFFER MY MEMORY CLASS, BUT I NEED TO, WE WE LOVE HER.
AND SO SHE'S A GREAT ASSET TO OUR COUNTY.
AND I ALSO WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW THAT WE, UH, ALSO RECEIVED RECOGNITION FOR THE STATE OF TEXAS.
WE WENT TO OUR STATE CONFERENCE AND WE GOT THE HONOR ROLL OF COUNTIES FOR OUR OUTSTANDING CONTRIBUTIONS TO COMMUNITY SERVICE AND ALSO FOR OUR OUTSTANDING EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMMING.
SO WE, WE REALLY TRY TO WORK HARD FOR OUR COUNTY.
AND WE'VE BEEN A LEADER IN OUR DISTRICT FOR PROBABLY ALMOST 25 YEARS.
WE'VE HAD A, A CHAIRMAN AND, UH, THEY'VE TAKEN A LEADERSHIP OF, UH, SO, UH, PARKER COUNTY IS WELL KNOWN FOR THEIR EXTENSION PROGRAM, EDUCATION PROGRAM IN DISTRICT THREE, BUT ALSO THE STATE.
SERVED AS OFFICE STATE OFFICERS.

PLEASE GIVE THESE PEOPLE A DEMAND FOR WHAT THEY DO.
[00:20:02]
COME ONALRIGHT, WE'LL TAKE TWO PICTURES.
OH, THAT'S JUST WHAT HE WANTS.
YOU HIT THE JACK VERY MUCH, VERY MUCH.
SHE GOES, SHE GOES, WATCH THIS.
WE'RE GONNA, DID YOU GIVE, DID YOU GIVE HIM, DID YOU GIVE HIM YOURS? I PROBABLY HAVE A WHOLE BACK SITTING OUTSIDE.
[5.F. Discuss/Take action on revising subdivision regulations with the following changes: (Commissioner Holt)]
WE'LL MOVE TO ITEM F ON DISCUSS, TAKE ACTION ON REVISING THE SUBDIVISION REGULATIONS WITH THE FOLLOWING CHANGES.ITEM ONE, CONSIDER ADDING THE REQUIREMENTS TO PERFORM A DOWNSTREAM DRAINAGE ASSESSMENT ON NEW SUBDIVISIONS.
ITEM TWO, CONSIDER REQUIRING NEW PRIVATE ROADS TO MEET SOME OR ALL OF THE COUNTY MINIMUM STANDARDS FOR ROAD AND CONSTRUCTION.
ITEM THREE, UPDATE PLATING FEES TO THE AMOUNT SUGGESTED BY JAMIE.
ITEM FOUR, UPDATE RV PARK REQUIREMENTS TO REQUIRE THAT INTERNAL ROADS MEET MINIMUM COUNTY STANDARDS.
UH, COMMISSIONER HOLT, DO YOU WANT TO LEAVE THIS OFF? SURE.
AND IN THE, UH, IN THE CONTEXT OF ALL FOUR OF THESE, I'LL, I'LL TALK ABOUT ONE FIRST, BUT THIS WILL ALSO SERVE AS AN UPDATE TO THE COURT.
ON THE MOST RECENT SUBDIVISION REGULATION COMMITTEE MEETING WE MET LAST WEEK, I BELIEVE, AND DISCUSSED SEVERAL ITEMS. THESE WERE THE FOUR RESOLUTIONS THAT WERE UNANIMOUSLY AGREED UPON BY THE FIVE MEMBERS OF THAT COMMITTEE.
FOR THE COURT'S CONSIDERATION TODAY, THE, UM, OVERALL, I FEEL LIKE THAT BODY IS A BODY THAT SERVES A VERY VALUABLE PURPOSE MEETING ABOUT ONCE A QUARTER.
I THINK OUR NEXT TENTATIVELY SCHEDULED MEETING IS THE SECOND WEEK OF JANUARY.
I'LL KEEP THE COURT UP TO DATE AS WE GET CLOSER AND CLOSER TO THAT TIME.
THE FIRST ITEM IS CONSIDERED ADDING A REQUIREMENT TO PERFORM A DOWNSTREAM DRAINAGE ASSESSMENT FOR NEW SUBDIVISIONS.
THIS IS SOMETHING THAT THE COUNTY CURRENTLY DOES NOT REQUIRE.
BASICALLY THE IDEA IS IF SOMEBODY COMES IN AND DEVELOPS 50 ACRES OR WHATEVER IT MIGHT BE, THERE NEEDS TO BE SOME TYPE OF ASSESSMENT DONE ON WHAT THE IMPACT OF ADDING ASPHALT AND ROOFTOPS IS TO FOLKS DOWNSTREAM OF THEM.
UM, IF YOU'RE TURNING A HAYFIELD INTO ROADS, THAT'S PROBABLY GOING TO ALTER OR ADJUST THE FLOW OF WATER.
SO IT WAS A UNANIMOUS DECISION BASED OFF OF THE FEEDBACK IN THE ROOM, UM, INCLUDING A COUPLE OF CIVIL ENGINEERS THAT THIS BE SOMETHING THAT WE ADD TO OUR SUBDIVISION REQUIREMENTS.
AND WE HAVE A MOTION BY COMMISSIONER HOLT.
UH, DO WE HAVE A SECOND? SECOND IS MADE BY COMMISSIONER CONLEY.
IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION ON THESE ITEMS? WE'RE GONNA TAKE THEM ONE AT A TIME HERE.
WE JUST DOING ALL FOUR AT ONCE.
UH, ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? ALL IN FAVOR? THIS IS ITEM
[00:25:01]
ONE.SO ITEM IS CONSIDER REQUIRING NEW PRIVATE ROADS TO MEET SOME OR ALL OF COUNTY MINIMUM STANDARDS FOR ROAD CONSTRUCTION.
THIS IS SOMETHING THAT THE COURT TALKED ABOUT BEFORE.
UM, IT HAD BEEN A RECOMMENDATION OF THE SRC BEFORE THAT WE LOOK AT THIS.
UH, I BELIEVE THE COURT TOOK NO ACTION OR DECIDED NOT TO IMPLEMENT THIS CHANGE.
THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WAS REQUESTED TO BY THE SRC TO BE BROUGHT BACK, UM, BEFORE THIS COURT'S CONSIDERATION.
I KNOW THAT IN PRECINCT TWO WE RUN INTO QUITE A FEW ISSUES IN TALKING WITH THE LOCAL ENTITIES THAT ARE INVOLVED WITH OUR ROADS.
AND WHEN I SAY OUR, I MEAN INCLUSIVE OF PRIVATE ROADS, I MEAN JUST ROADS THAT ARE LOCATED IN THE GEOGRAPHIC BOUNDS OF PRECINCT.
TWO ISSUES FROM THE POST OFFICE ISSUES, A LOT OF ISSUES FROM SCHOOLS AND SCHOOL BUSES GETTING DOWN PRIVATE ROADS.
SO WHAT I WANTED TO SUGGEST WAS THAT WE ADOPT SOME MINIMUM LEVEL OF REQUIREMENT FOR NEW PRIVATE ROADS.
THIS IS SOMETHING THAT SEVERAL COUNTIES IN THE AREA DO ALREADY, WHERE THEY REQUIRE THAT THEY MEET AT LEAST THE MINIMUMS. TO ME, IT MAKES SENSE THAT AT LEAST THE EIGHT INCH BASE REQUIREMENT WOULD BE HELD UP.
BECAUSE IF SOMEONE CUTS IN A ROAD AND THEY'RE NOT PUTTING IN PROPER AMOUNTS OF BASE, REGARDLESS OF HOW THEY TOP IT, THEN THEY AREN'T GOING TO SET UP THOSE RESIDENTS AND THE INFRASTRUCTURE THAT'S SUPPOSED TO SERVE THOSE RESIDENTS, INCLUDING OUR DEPUTIES, SCHOOL BUSES, ET CETERA, VERY WELL IN THE LONG TERM FOR MAKING SURE THE FOLKS WHO LIVE ON THAT ROAD CAN GET NECESSARY SERVICES.
MOTION MADE BY COMMISSIONER HOLT.
SO TO BE CLEAR, THIS MOTION IS THAT WE REQUIRE NEW PRIVATE ROADS TO MEET ALL OF OUR CURRENT COUNTY MINIMUM STANDARDS FOR ROAD CONSTRUCTION.
I AM WILLING TO DISCUSS REVISING THAT BASED OFF FEEDBACK FROM THE COURT.
I MADE, I'VE MADE THE SECOND WE'RE IN THE DISCUSSION PHASE, NOW WE NEED A DISCUSSION ON THIS ITEM.
IS THIS GOING BE PROPERTY? I'M NOT SURE HOW YOU DO THIS ON TELL A GUY HOW TO BUILD THIS ROAD ON HIS OWN.
THAT WOULD HAVE TO BE IN A SUBDIVISION THAT'S PRIVATE.
THIS, SO IN OTHER WORDS, IF SOMEBODY OWNS A LARGE RANCH AND THEY'RE CUTTING IN A NEW ROAD OR PATH FROM ONE BARN TO ANOTHER, ONE PASTURE TO ANOTHER, THAT'S NOT WHAT THIS APPLIES TO.
THIS APPLIES TO NEW SUBDIVISIONS, RIGHT.
RIGHT? THIS WON'T AFFECT DRIVEWAYS OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT.
RIGHT? SO ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I WAS JUST TRYING TO PIECE TOGETHER THERE, AND I'M NOT, I'M NOT NEGATIVE TO THIS AT ALL, BUT, UH, IF A DEVELOPER WERE TO PUT A SUBDIVISION IN AND WE HAVE, UH, MADE SURE THAT WE'VE INSPECTED THESE ROADS AND THEY MEET THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS, THEN THIS LOOKS LIKE A WAY THAT THEY COULD BYPASS THE, UH, UH, POTENTIALLY BYPASS HAVING TO PUT DOWN, UH, A BOND.
SO IT'S BUILT TO COUNTY SPECIFICATIONS.
WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO INSPECT IT TO MAKE SURE THAT IT MEET MEETS COUNTY SPECIFICATIONS.
THEY DON'T PUT A BOND DOWN, THEY HOLD IT AS A PRIVATE ROAD.
AND THEN WHEN THE SUBDIVISION'S FINISHED, THEY COME BACK AND SAY, OH, WELL THESE WERE BUILT TO COUNTY SPECS.
WE WANT YOU TO ADOPT THESE ROADS.
NOW IT'S ONE, ONE THING, ONE NEGATIVE THAT I SEE IN THERE THAT MIGHT BE A PATHWAY TO, TO KEEP THEM.
AND, AND IF THAT'S THE CASE, THEN, UH, SO BE IT.
BUT JUST, I'M JUST SEEING A POTENTIAL DOWNSIDE TO THAT AS A WAY OF BYPASSING OUR, OUR, UH, BOND REQUIREMENTS FOR ROAD.
NOT THAT THAT'S ANYTHING WRONG WITH THAT, BUT WHAT HAPPENS IS PEOPLE BUY THESE, UH, HOMES AND THESE SUBDIVISIONS DON'T REALIZE THAT THEY LIVE ON A PRIVATE ROAD.
RIGHT? SO THEN WE TELL THEM THEY LIVE ON A PRIVATE ROAD, AND THEN THEY START CALLING OTHER PEOPLE.
WE CALL THE JUDGE'S OFFICE AND SAY, WELL, WE NEED THEM TO COME TO FIX THESE ROADS DOWN HERE IN OUR SUBDIVISION.
AND THEN HE HAS TO GO THROUGH THE PROCESS THEN AND TELL 'EM YOU LIVE ON A PRIVATE ROAD.
UH, SO IF THE, IF THEY'RE BUILT TO BETTER SPECIFICATIONS, I THINK IT WOULD HELP TO ALLEVIATE THAT PROBLEM FOR A WHILE.
UH, I KNOW THAT YOU PROBABLY HAVE SOME THAT PEOPLE DIDN'T REALIZE WEREN'T GONNA BE PAID.
YOU KNOW, THEY, THEY BUY A HOME AND A SUBDIVISION AND, AND IT REMAINS A GRAVEL ROAD, YOU KNOW? UH, BUT THERE'S A FINE LINE HERE BETWEEN WHAT WE'RE DOING AND, AND, AND ARE, ARE WE GONNA FULLY PROTECT THE HOME BUYER FROM EVERYTHING? JOHN, WHERE DO YOU THINK WE STAND, UH, LEGALLY ON REQUIRING SOMEONE TO BUILD A ROAD TO COUNTY SPECS, BUT IT NOT BE A COUNTY ROAD?
[00:30:02]
WELL, WE CAN ALWAYS MAKE THAT REQUEST OR THE ASK, YOU KNOW, IT'S, IT'S SOMETHING THAT, UH, COULD BE CHALLENGED AND, YOU KNOW, AT THAT POINT, A COURT WILL MAKE THAT DETERMINATION.I'M NOT OPPOSED, I'M JUST, I'M JUST TRYING TO THROWING OUT SOME THINGS THAT, THAT HAPPEN.
I WELL, I THINK THAT RING BRINGS UP A GOOD POINT.
MY UNDERSTANDING IS, AND I COULD BE WRONG, I DON'T LIVE IN THESE COUNTIES, BUT THERE'S SEVERAL COUNTIES IN THE AREA THAT ALREADY REQUIRE THIS.
SO I WOULD THINK THIS ISN'T A FOOLPROOF WAY, BUT I WOULD THINK THAT IF IT WERE NOT LEGALLY UP, IF IT WEREN'T ABLE TO BE UPHELD, IT WOULD'VE ALREADY BEEN PULLED BACK.
WE, WE ALL GET REQUESTS FOR THE COUNTY TO TAKE OVER.
THESE, THESE PRIVATE ROADS FURTHER DOWN THE ROAD.
AND, UH, THE, THE, USUALLY THE PROBLEM IS THAT, UH, YOU KNOW, THEY HAVE TO GIVE LAND.
THEY HAVE TO, UH, UH, HAVE IT SURVEYED, AND THEN THEY HAVE TO PROVE THAT IT WAS BUILT TO COUNTY STANDARDS.
SO WE'RE, WE'RE, WE'RE SOLVING THAT PROBLEM FOR THEM.
IF WE, IF WE'RE SAYING THAT THESE ROADS ARE BUILT TO COUNTY STANDARDS TO BEGIN WITH, THEN THE QUESTION BECOMES ONE OF, WHY AREN'T YOU TAKING CARE OF MY ROAD? BUT THAT'S, THAT'S AN ISSUE TO BE, TO BE HANDLED LATER.
AND I DON'T KNOW HOW OTHER COUNTIES HANDLE THAT, BUT, SO I STRUGGLED WITH THIS ONE PERSONALLY.
I MEAN, LAST TIME I VOTED I WAS AGAINST THIS.
'CAUSE I'M BIG ON LANDOWNER'S RIGHTS.
BUT I ALSO UNDERSTAND, AND I INHERITED SOME ROADS THAT ARE IN THIS SAME WAY.
UM, AND YOU HAVE LANDOWNERS THAT ARE FULLY AWARE OF WHAT THE SITUATION IS AND THEY'D LIKE TO BRING IT TO COUNTY SPECS.
BUT YOU HAVE LOTS UNDERNEATH THE ROAD TO THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND TRYING TO GET RIGHT AWAY.
SO THAT'S ONE OF MY QUESTIONS ON THIS.
IT'S A PRIVATE ROAD, BUT ARE YOU GONNA HAVE 'EM HAND OVER THE RIGHT OF WAY TO THE COUNTY BEFORE TO CLEAR THE PATH IF THE, THE HOMEOWNER, THE FUNDING MECHANISM DOESN'T TAKE CARE OF THE ROADS AND THE FOLKS DO WANT TO REACH IN THEIR POCKET, BRING IT TO COUNTY SPECS WHERE WE ACCEPT IT, AND THEN THAT'S, THEN THAT HELPS CLEAR THE WAY? I THINK THAT'S A GREAT POINT.
I THINK THAT'S A LITTLE BIT OF A SEPARATE ISSUE, BUT IT'S A REALLY GOOD POINT THAT SHOULD STILL BE ADDRESSED.
I WOULD, I WOULD ENVISION THAT WE DON'T MAKE ANY CHANGES WHATSOEVER TO THE STANDARDS THAT HAVE TO BE MET AT THAT PRESENT TIME.
IF THAT FUTURE SUBDIVISION WERE TO ASK TO BRING THOSE ROADS INTO US, INTO OUR SYSTEM, THEY WOULD HAVE TO BE AT THAT MOMENT FULLY UP TO OUR MM-HMM.
DOES THAT, DOES THAT GET AT WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT? WELL, IT ADDRESSES A PORTION OF IT, BUT IT ONLY, I MEAN, WE'RE GETTING BACK TO THE ORIGINAL INTENT OF THIS IS TO PROTECT THOSE FOLKS THAT MAY BE UNAWARE AND, AND PURCHASING A PROPERTY THAT'S ON ONE OF THESE PRIVATE ROADS THAT ARE BUILT TO A SUBPAR SPEC.
YOU KNOW, TO ME, I THINK IF YOU'RE PUTTING THIS INFORMATION ON THE MYLARS AND YOU'RE GETTING THE WORD OUT AND DOING A BETTER JOB OF EDUCATING THAT THIS IS A PRIVATE ROAD, THEN WHAT'S THE NEXT STEP? ARE WE GONNA IDENTIFY THE FUNDING MECHANISM? HOW ARE THEY GONNA FUND THE MAINTENANCE ON THIS ROAD WHEN IT'S PRIVATE? I MEAN, THIS IS, THIS IS ONE OF THOSE THINGS WHERE, WHERE, IF WE'RE GOING TO DO THAT NOW, THESE ARE A LOT OF SPINOFF QUESTIONS THAT I THINK WE NEED TO BE ADDRESSING.
AND, AND I MEAN, INSTEAD OF JUST CASTING A WIDE NET NOW AND THEN DEALING WITH THE QUAGMIRE LATER, AND, AND THERE'S ONE OTHER ISSUE THAT WE'RE GONNA ADDRESS DURING PLATTING.
IT CAN BE A PUBLIC ROAD, BUT NOT A COUNTY ROAD AS WELL.
SO THERE'S ANOTHER CATEGORY OF ROADS THAT ARE IN PARKER COUNTY THAT ISN'T, THEY'RE NOT MAINTAINED BY THE COUNTY, BUT THEY'RE, WERE USED BY THE PUBLIC.
PRIVATE JUST HAS A RESTRICTION OF PUBLIC USE.
SO I UNDERSTAND EDUCATING A BUYER SO THEY'RE NOT CAUGHT BY SURPRISE.
ALSO, PROBABLY EVERY ONE OF US COMMISSIONERS UP HERE GET PHONE CALLS ON THESE PRIVATE ROADS THAT ARE NOT MAINTAINED.
THEN THEY'RE NOT BEHIND A CLOSED GATE EITHER.
YOU KNOW, IF THERE'S A CLOSED GATE OR THERE'S SIGNS UP ON THE ROAD, THAT'S ANOTHER, ANOTHER STEP IN TRYING TO EDUCATE A BUYER THAT PULLS IN.
IF THERE'S A GATE THAT REALLY SAYS, THERE'S NO QUESTION THIS IS PRIVATE.
'CAUSE IT'S NOT JUST FULLY OPEN, WE KNOW THAT.
BUT A POTENTIAL BUYER PROBABLY DOESN'T.
THEY DON'T KNOW, JUST THOUGHT THAT I'M HAVING, THEY, THEY DON'T KNOW THAT IT'S NOT A, A GATED COUNTY ROAD.
THEY DON'T KNOW THE, THE RULES LIKE WE DO.
SO I THINK, UH, UH, OR A SIGN SIGNAGE.
THAT'S WHY I WAS GONNA SAY SIGNAGE WOULD BE SOMETHING THAT OF COURSE WE, WE, WE PUT A DIFFERENT COLOR YEAH.
[00:35:01]
REQUIRED THEM TO, BUT, UM, I'M NOT OPPOSED, I'M NOT OPPOSED TO HAVING THESE BUILT TO COUNTY SPECS, BUT IT, IT, IT OPENS UP SOME OTHER QUESTIONS.I, YOU KNOW, IT'S NOT THE, IT'S NOT THE SOLVE, UH, IT'S NOT GONNA SOLVE ALL THE PROBLEMS. I THINK THIS DIS THIS DISCUSSION'S FANTASTIC AND I THINK IT'S BRINGING UP SOME REALLY GOOD POINTS MM-HMM.
THAT WE NEED TO CAREFULLY CONSIDER.
I DON'T THINK THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IS SO OVERTLY CLEAR THAT IT'S JUST A SLAM DUNK.
WITH NO DOWNSIDES TO ME AS I REASON THROUGH THIS.
THERE'S A PART OF ME THAT SAYS, NO, I DON'T WANT THE GOVERNMENT TELLING PRIVATE LANDOWNERS WHAT THEY, WHAT MINIMUMS THEY HAVE TO DO ON THEIR LAND.
BUT THEN THERE'S PLENTY OF EXAMPLES WITH WELLS AND HOW CLOSE YOU CAN BE TO A GAS WELL AND ALL THAT KIND OF STUFF, PIPELINES, WHATEVER THAT, THAT'S ALREADY DONE FOR PUBLIC SAFETY PURPOSES.
AND THAT'S THE ASPECT THAT I GO BACK TO ON THIS IS WITH, AS FAST AS OUR COUNTY IS GROWING, IF WE HAVE ROADS THAT ARE PUT IN THAT DON'T MEET OUR MINIMUM STANDARDS, WHICH WE HAVE GOOD MINIMUM STANDARDS, BUT I DON'T FEEL LIKE THEY'RE OVERLY BURDENSOME, WE'RE NOT REQUIRING, YOU KNOW, SEWAGE AND CONCRETE AND ALL THAT STUFF, THEN AT SOME POINT THERE'S A SIGNIFICANT PUBLIC SAFETY HAZARD DOWN THE ROAD WHEN YOU'VE GOT DEPUTIES TRYING TO GET TO A HOUSE OR YOU'VE GOT FIRE TRYING TO GET TO A HOUSE OR WHATEVER THE CASE MAY BE.
THAT'S THE PART THAT WEIGHS HEAVILY ENOUGH IN MY MIND THAT I THINK THIS IS WORTH IT.
I THINK AT, AT, I'M IN AGREEMENT WITH IT TO A POINT.
I THINK THE BASE IS PROBABLY THE, IN THE WAY THAT IT'S INSTALLED, THE COMPACTION IN THE, IN THE DEPTH IS, I CAN UNDERSTAND THAT COMPLETELY.
I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT THAT, THAT IT IS STATED THERE FOR A BUYER NOT TO BE CAUGHT OFF GUARD.
SO I WOULD, I WOULD ENCOURAGE TO GO FURTHER AS FAR AS IF THIS PASSES THAT, THAT'S PUT ON THE MYLARS AND THEN THE DOCUMENTATION AS FAR AS THAT, THAT CAN BE DONE OR WHAT, WHAT STEPS COULD BE DONE.
SO IT'S ON THE, IT'S ON THE MYLAR NOW THAT IT'S A PRIVATE ROAD.
UH, YOU KNOW, IF WE'RE GONNA FULLY BE IN THE GOVERNMENT PROTECTING EVERYBODY FROM ALL THINGS, THEN THAT'S NOT GOOD ENOUGH BECAUSE IT'S, IT'S ALREADY ON THERE THAT IT'S A PRIVATE ROAD AND, UH, THEY STILL CALL US AND SAY, COME AND FIX MY ROAD.
BECAUSE THEY DON'T KNOW THEY LIVE ON A PRIVATE ROAD.
UH, SO I'M, I'M, I'M IN AGREEMENT, UH, UH, YOU KNOW, IF WE WERE TO GO TO MINIMUM COUNTY STANDARDS AND THAT WOULD BE EIGHT INCHES OF COMPACTED BASE, UH, 22 FOOT WIDE, UH, CHIP SEAL, UH, THAT WOULD PROBABLY TAKE, TAKE AWAY THOSE SITUATIONS WHERE THEY'RE GONNA REMAIN GRAVEL ROADS.
HOWEVER, THERE'S NO MECHANISM FOR, UH, THERE'S NO REQUIREMENT FOR A MECHANISM FOR MAINTENANCE YEAH.
ON THESE PRIVATE ROADS AND THAT, THAT'S WHERE THE PROBLEM LIES.
'CAUSE THEY DON'T RECOGNIZE THAT THEY'RE GONNA HAVE TO PUT MONEY OUT OF THEIR POCKET TOWARD, UH, THAT, AND THERE MAY NOT BE ANY MECHANISM AT ALL.
SO YEAH, IT'S DEFINITELY NOT A CURE ALL.
I DO THINK IT'S A, IT'S A CURE SUM.
ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? AGAIN, WE AM IN THE DISCUSSION PHASE WITH A MOTION AND A SECOND, UH, THERE'S NO OTHER DISCUSSION.
MOVE TO ITEM THREE ON THE UPDATE PLANNING FEES TO THE AMOUNT SUGGESTED BY JAMIE TIER.
I AM GONNA DEFER TO MS TIER ON THIS.
I KNOW TWO OF YOU HAVE ALREADY STATED YOU'D LIKE SOME MORE TIME TO REVIEW THIS, BUT I JUST THOUGHT WE COULD KIND OF GO OVER IT REAL QUICK.
UH, WE HAVEN'T UPDATED OUR PLATTING FEES SINCE PRIOR TO 2016.
I THINK IT MAY ACTUALLY BE A LITTLE BIT FURTHER BACK.
SO I DID SOME COMPARISONS WITH SOME ADJOINING COUNTIES.
UM, SOME OF THEM WE ARE KIND OF CLOSE TO, UH, BUT THE MAJORITY OF 'EM WE ARE VERY FAR BEHIND.
UM, WISE COUNTY IS VERY COMPARABLE.
ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I WOULD LIKE FOR Y'ALL TO LOOK AT IS THEY DO CHARGE, UH, A FEE FOR CONSTRUCTION INSPECTION OF ROADWAYS.
SOME OF THEM EVEN GO AS FAR AS, UH, TO THE FIRST MILE THEY CHARGE, AND THEN $150 ADDITIONAL FOR ANY ADDITIONAL HALF A MILE.
ANOTHER THING THAT, UH, I REALLY LIKED WAS RIGHT NOW WHEN WE HAVE ROADS THAT ARE COMING UP FOR INSPECTION, SOMETIMES, YOU KNOW, PRECINCT THREE, I THINK THIS WEEK HAD TO GO OUT SEVERAL TIMES ON JUST ONE PROJECT.
THEY CHARGE AN ADDITIONAL FINAL CONSTRUCTION INSPECTION COST.
UM, YOU KNOW, ONE COUNTY CHARGES $500 PER VISIT IN EXCESS OF TWO VISITS.
SO SOMETHING LIKE THIS WHERE THEY'VE HAD TO GO OUT MULTIPLE TIMES, YOU KNOW, THIS MONEY GOES BACK INTO THE
[00:40:01]
PRECINCT LINES.UM, ANOTHER THING THAT A LOT OF THE COUNTIES ARE DOING IS WHEN WE HAVE PLAT AMENDMENTS OR CANCELLATIONS RIGHT NOW, WE DON'T CHARGE ANYTHING TO WORK ON THOSE DOCUMENTS AND THEY ALL DO.
SO I WOULD LIKE FOR Y'ALL TO LOOK AT THAT TOO.
UM, I DON'T HAVE A SET AMOUNT THAT I REALLY FEEL LIKE I KIND OF WANTED Y'ALL'S THOUGHTS ON HOW MUCH YOU'D LIKE TO GO UP.
I DEFINITELY THINK WE, IF WE COULD, I I DO LIKE, UH, JOHNSON COUNTY'S COSTS ARE REASONABLE, BUT WISE COUNTIES ARE ALSO, UM, PRETTY REASONABLE.
BUT I, I KNOW I DIDN'T REALLY GIVE YOU A LOT OF TIME TO LOOK THESE OVER.
SO IF WE CAN COME BACK IN TWO WEEKS AFTER YOU'VE HAD TIME TO KIND OF GIMME SOME THOUGHTS AND ALL THESE FEES COME BACK TO EACH PRECINCT.
WHEN WE TAKE IN MONEY, WE HAVE DEPOSIT SLIPS THAT WE DON'T, THEY ALL HAVE AN OPTION FOR THE FOUR PRECINCTS.
SO ALL OF ALL THE PLANNING FEES THAT WE COLLECT, THEY DON'T GO INTO THE COUNTY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE.
THEY COME STRAIGHT BACK TO Y'ALL.
SO YOU'RE RECOMMENDING THAT WE TAKE NO ACTION ON THIS AND REVIEW THIS AND THEN COME BACK? UH, YES SIR.
BASED ON THE COMMISSIONER'S REQUEST TODAY.
UNLESS THERE'S ANY OTHER DISCUSSION, WE'LL TAKE NO ACTION ON THIS ITEM.
DO YOU MIND PUTTING THAT ON THE AGENDA FOR TWO WEEKS FROM NOW? ITEM THREE, MOVE TO ITEM FOUR ON UPDATE RV PARK REQUIREMENTS TO REQUIRE THAT INTERNAL ROADS MEET MINIMUM COUNTY STANDARDS.
THIS ITEM'S PRETTY SIMILAR TO ITEM TWO.
IT ACTUALLY WAS A UNANIMOUS, UH, RECOMMENDATION BASED OFF OF THE DISCUSSION THAT LED TO ITEM TWO FROM VERY MUCH THE SAME REASON.
UM, WHEN YOU HAVE AN RV PARK, YOU HAVE HEAVY VEHICLES PULLING IN AND OUT.
PLUS THOSE ITEMS ARE, THOSE LOCATIONS TEND TO HAVE A HIGHER DEMAND FOR COUNTY INFRASTRUCTURE FIRE, EMS DEPUTIES, ET CETERA.
SO GOOD IDEA TO MAKE THEM MEET OUR MINIMUM STANDARDS.
MOTION MADE BY COMMISSIONER WALDEN WITH A SECOND BY COMMISSIONER HALE, UH, IN THE DISCUSSION PHASE.
ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? JUDGE, UH, MR. BRONER, DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO ADD ABOUT THESE RV ROADS? YEAH, THAT'S WHAT I SAY.
I MEAN, WE DO NEED TO HAVE COME ON.
YEAH, WE DO NEED TO HAVE EMERGENCY VEHICLES HAVE ACCESS TO EVERY ONE OF THE LOTS.
SO WE BEING A LITTLE BIT WIDER CUL-DE-SACS, IF IT'S GONNA BE TWO WAY OR, YOU KNOW, WE'RE ONE WAY DESIGNATION ROADS, BUT WE, WE DO NEED, YOU KNOW, IT'S JUST BASICALLY AN EMERGENCY VEHICLE SITUATION.
ARE THEY HAVING ISSUES NOW? I KNOW THAT THERE WERE SOME ISSUES BACK IN THE, WELL, YOU GOT SOME, WE HAVE THOSE FREEZES AND SOME, SOME FIRES IN THERE.
WE'VE GOT SOME IN THAT THEY COULDN'T GET BACK THERE IF THEY WANTED TO.
THAT'S BECAUSE NOT YEAH, THEY JUST, YEAH, EXACTLY.
ANY OTHER DISCUSSION ON THIS ITEM? AGAIN, WE HAVE A MOTION A SECOND.
AND WHERE THE DISCUSSION PAYS.
[5.G. Discussion regarding roadway issues inside of Oak Tree Ranch Estates located in Precinct Two and take any action the court deems necessaiy. (Commissioner Holt)]
ITEM G ON DISCUSSION REGARDING ROADWAYS INSIDE ISSUES INSIDE OF OAKTREE RANCH ESTATES LOCATED PRECINCT TWO AND TAKE ANY ACTION.THIS IS A SUBDIVISION IN PRECINCT TWO THAT, UM, I I WAS NOT THERE, UH, WHEN ALL OF THESE ROADS WENT IN.
I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THE DETAILS ARE.
I DON'T WANNA SPECULATE, I WANNA BE VERY CLEAR ON THAT.
BUT THERE ARE CURRENTLY GRAVEL ROADS.
UH, THIS IS, THESE ARE PRIVATE ROADS.
THIS IS A SUBDIVISION THAT'S LOCATED DIRECTLY OFF OF NINE 20 IN AN AREA THAT'S NOT GREAT WITH VISIBILITY DUE TO THE CONDITION OF THE ROADS, THE SCHOOL BUS HAS TO STOP ON NINE 20, WHICH IS CERTAINLY NOT PREFERABLE FROM A SAFETY STANDPOINT.
UM, MANY OF THE RESIDENTS IN THAT NEIGHBORHOOD HAVE ASKED US, OR SUBDIVISION HAVE ASKED US TO TAKE THEM OVER.
WE CAN'T TAKE IT OVER RIGHT NOW BECAUSE IT'S A GRAVEL ROAD WITH SIGNIFICANT POTHOLE ISSUES AND THINGS LIKE THAT.
THE PROCESS BY WHICH WE COULD TAKE IT OVER IS OUTLINED IN THE TRANSPORTATION CODE CHAPTER 2 53.
AND TO SUMMARIZE VERY QUICKLY, AND I'LL LET JOHN ADD ANY COLOR, UM, WE BASICALLY WOULD SEND OUT, WE, WE WOULD PUT A PUBLIC HEARING WHERE WE WOULD THEN, AFTER THE 30 DAYS OF THE PUBLIC HEARING, WE WOULD MAIL A BALLOT TO THE MEMBERS OF THAT SUBDIVISION, GET THEIR VOTE BACK.
IF THE MAJORITY OF THEM AGREE, THEY WOULD THEN BEAR THE COST OF THE IMPROVEMENTS TO THAT ROAD.
SO THIS WOULD NOT BE AN ADDITIONAL COST
[00:45:01]
ON THE TAXPAYERS OF THE COUNTY.SO THIS WOULDN'T, IN FACT, PRECINCT ONE OR PRECINCT THREE OR PRECINCT FOUR, THIS WOULD BE SOMETHING THAT WOULD IMPACT THE MEMBERS OF THAT SUBDIVISION ONLY.
NOW THE REASON WHY THEY WOULDN'T JUST DO IT ON THEIR OWN ANYWAY IS PER THE LAW, I'M GONNA READ DIRECTLY, THIS IS 2 53 0.008.
COMMISSIONER'S COURT MAY PROVIDE THE TIME TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF PAYMENT AND DEFAULT OF ASSESSMENT.
UM, SO BASICALLY WHEN THIS HAPPENS IN OTHER AREAS, WE CAN DO THE WORK, ASSESS THOSE HOMEOWNERS THE COST SPECIFICALLY, BUT THEY DON'T HAVE TO PAY THE COST ALL AT ONCE.
THEY CAN, WE CAN SET A SCHEDULE OUT OVER TIME THAT THEY PAY THOSE COSTS BACK.
THE TAXPAYER'S GONNA BE PUTTING THE BILL UP FRONT, BUT THEY'RE GONNA PAY IT BACK SOMEDAY.
AND THAT'S, IS THAT WHAT I, IS THAT WHAT I'M HEARING? OR THAT'S UP TO US AS TO TIME TERMS AND CONDITIONS, BUT YES, BUT THE MAJORITY IN THERE HAS TO VOTE FOR THIS.
THE MAJORITY HAS TO BE IN FAVOR.
IT'S NOT JUST ONE PERSON CAN CUT THE WHOLE DEAL OFF.
IF ONE PERSON, NOW I I I PULLED UP, UH, THE AG OPINION, IT REQUIRES US TO GO THROUGH 2 53.
AND THE WAY THAT SPECIFICALLY WORKS, THEY WOULD'VE TO PETITION THE COURT, UH, BASED ON THAT PETITION.
THE COURT THEN MAKE A DETERMINATION OF WHETHER IT'S FOR THE, UH, PUBLIC WELFARE, HEALTH SAFETY OF THOSE RESIDENTS IN THAT PARTICULAR SUBDIVISION.
AT THAT POINT THEN THERE WOULD BE AN ASSESSMENT OF COST TO BRING THAT UP TO COUNTY SPEC.
YOU WOULD HAVE A PUBLIC HEARING, UH, TO MAKE A DETERMINATION BY THE COURT TO VOTE ON THAT.
THOSE BALLOTS WOULD THEN BE MAILED OUT TO THEM BASED ON WHAT THE COST WOULD BE ASSESSED.
AND IT'S A PERSONAL LIABILITY TO EACH LANDOWNER.
AND THE LIEN WOULD THEN BE PLACED ON THAT PROPERTY UNTIL SUCH TIME THAT THAT COST IS PAID OFF.
SO, UH, THEY WOULD'VE TO ESTABLISH WHAT THE CO OVERALL COST TO CONSTRUCT THE ROAD WOULD BE.
THEN BASED ON THAT WOULD BE PRO RATA SHARE BASED ON OWNERSHIP WITHIN THAT SUBDIVISION.
AND AT THAT POINT THOSE BALLOTS BE SENT INDICATING WHAT THE FINANCIAL OBLIGATION WOULD BE TO EACH PROPERTY OWNER.
WOULD THAT BE, WOULD THAT BE AT THE FEMA RATE? OR HOW DO YOU ARRIVE AT THE RATE THAT YOU'RE GONNA CHARGE? UM, THE LAW SAYS THAT WE DO NOT HAVE TO CHARGE INTEREST.
IT DOESN'T SAY THAT WE CANNOT CHARGE INTEREST.
I WOULDN'T, I WASN'T TALKING ABOUT INTEREST.
I WAS TALKING ABOUT THE, WHEN WE DO WORK FOR CITIES, WE HAVE TO CHARGE CONTRACT.
AND, AND, AND THE LAW ACTUALLY PROHIBITS, UM, US FROM CHARGING AN INTEREST UNLESS YOU'RE ARCHER COUNTY.
FOR SOME REASON, THEY WERE ABLE TO GET THAT PUT IN THERE.
SO, OR ARANSAS, I'M SORRY, ARANSAS COUNTY CAN CHARGE INTEREST, BUT AGAIN, IT IS THE MAJORITY OF HOW MANY THAT LIVE THERE.
IF ONE PERSON SAYS THEY DON'T WANT IT, THAT DOESN'T MATTER.
IT'S MAJORITY IS THE WAY THE STATUTE READS.
DON'T, WHAT I WAS ASKING WAS HOW YOU ARRIVE AT THE RATE FOR THE COUNTY WORK.
BECAUSE WHEN WE DO WORK FOR CITIES, WE CHARGE FEMA RATING.
SINCE WE DO THAT FOR CITIES, THAT'S, THAT'D BE A TERMINATION FOR THE COURT, HOW Y'ALL ASSESS THAT COST.
BUT IT PROBABLY GET WITH, UH, THE AUDITOR AS WELL.
SO HOW MANY, APPROXIMATELY HOW MANY, HOW OWNERS OR LOTS ARE IN THIS DEVELOPMENT? I BELIEVE IT'S AROUND 40 TO 60.
SO IT SIZE AND THEIR, THEIR DEED RESTRICTIONS WOULD WOULD'VE TO CHANGE AS WELL.
UM, THEY PROBABLY HAVE TO VOTE TO TAKE THE PRIVATE OFF OF IT, BECAUSE CURRENTLY IT'S PRIVATE, SO THEY'D HAVE TO MAKE A CHANGE IN DESIGNATION.
THERE'S PROBABLY SOME SIGNIFICANT LEGAL WORK TO BE DONE.
THAT'S WHAT I WAS ABOUT TO BRING UP, JOHN.
YOU GO THERE WOULD BE, 'CAUSE THAT'D BE THE FIRST STEP IS TO TAKE IT OUT OF PRIVATE, PROBABLY PUT INTO PUBLIC, UH, REDESIGNATE THAT ROAD AND THEN PETITION THE COURT TO THEN CONSIDER ASSESSING THE, THE COST.
BUT THE, BUT THE ROADS ARE IN THE, THE ISDS OPINION NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR THEIR SCHOOL BUSES TO TRAVEL DOWN.
I'VE PETITIONED THE SCHOOL DISTRICT TO ALLOW THE BUSES TO TRAVEL DOWN, AND THAT'S SIMPLY NOT POSSIBLE UNDER THE CURRENT CONDITIONS.
FOR SEVERAL REASONS, JUST BECAUSE THEY'RE A DIRT ROAD.
THERE'S SEVERAL REASONS THAT I DON'T WANNA GET INTO SPECULATION AND REPEAT THINGS THAT MIGHT BE, MAY OR MAY NOT BE TRUE, BUT THE SCHOOL IS HOLDING FIRM THAT THEY WILL NOT TRAVEL DOWN THOSE ROADS.
[00:50:01]
HOW OLD'S THAT SUBDIVISION? PROBABLY 10 YEARS OLD.WELL, SO I, AS, AS I'M SURE YOU ALL DO, THIS IS NOT THE ONLY SUBDIVISION THAT I HAVE THAT I GET CALLS ABOUT.
THE REASON THAT I WANT TO, UH, ASK THE COURT TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THE PUBLIC HEARING ASPECT OF THIS AND US MOVING FORWARD WITH THE PUBLIC HEARING DOES NOT OBLIGATE US TO TAKE IT ANY FARTHER THAN THAT ACCORDING TO MY READING OF CHAPTER 2 53.
JOHN, AM I CORRECT ON THAT? THAT'S CORRECT.
THEY'VE, THEY'VE, THEY'VE PETITIONED US.
SO, UM, UNLESS THERE'S SOME FORMAL EXACT DOCUMENT THAT THEY HAVE TO SIGN.
BUT NO, I'VE, I'VE GOT PLENTY OF EMAILS AND REQUESTS AND WRITTEN DOCUMENTATION.
DID THEY EVER WANT IN THERE SIGN THE PETITION OR DID SOME UH, I THINK I GOT AN EMAIL THAT HAD 25 DIFFERENT FAMILIES COPIED ON IT.
SO IT SEEMED LIKE IT WAS A VERY LARGE NUMBER OF THE RESIDENTS.
UM, THE, THE REASON THAT I WANNA BRING BACK TO THE COURT'S ATTENTION IS WE HAVE A SCHOOL BUS THAT STOPS ON FM NINE 20.
THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF FATALITIES ON THAT ROAD.
WELL, DON'T THEY, THEY STOP ON NINE 20 ALL UP AND DOWN THROUGH THERE, DON'T THEY? NOT JUST AT THAT AREA.
THAT'S NOT THE ONLY SPOT THAT THEY STOP AT, BUT MOST OF THE PLACES THAT THEY STOP AT, IT'S BECAUSE IT'S ONE HOUSE THAT HAS A DRIVEWAY THAT AFFECTS NINE 20 DIRECTLY.
UM, THIS IS, AS FAR AS I KNOW, THIS IS THE ONLY SUBDIVISION THAT THEY DO NOT DRIVE INTO.
WELL, LET'S DO THE PUBLIC HEARING AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
MOTION IS MADE BY COMMISSIONER HOLT, SECOND BY COMMISSIONER WALDEN.
IS THERE ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? ALL THE THING I'D LIKE TO ADD.
WE HAVE A SIMILAR SITUATION DOWN IN THAT BORLAND FIELD, AND THE BUS WAS STOPPING OUT THERE ON 3 77 ON THE SHOULDER AND TEXDOT AND THE HOAI WAS INVOLVED WITH IT, AND WE WERE ABLE TO GET A TURNOUT IN THE DESAL LANE AND HAVE REALLY WORKED TOGETHER WELL TO ACCOMMODATE THAT NEIGHBORHOOD, EVEN THOUGH NOT HAVING TO GO IN THERE ON THOSE PRIVATE ROADS.
THAT IS SOMETHING TO MY UNDERSTANDING THAT HAS BEEN LOOKED AT AND IS NOT A POSSIBILITY.
JUST WHAT'S THE LENGTH OF THE ROAD? DO YOU, DO YOU APPROXIMATELY, I MEAN, ONE, ONE, THERE'S, THERE'S A MAIN ROAD WITH A COUPLE OF CUL-DE-SACS THAT PULL OFF, BUT I WANNA SAY IT'S 1.2 MILES MAYBE.
ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? HOLD ON PAPER.
[5.L. RFPQ PC24-39 Professional Services Agreement for Water Resources Assessment and Planning Services. (Kim Rivas / Judge Deen)]
TO ITEM L ON THE RFPQ PC 24 DASH 39 PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT FOR WATER RESOURCE ASSESSMENT AND PLANNING SERVICES.SO EARLIER THIS YEAR, UM, THE COURT APPROVED, UH, THE AWARD OF RFQ PC 24 DASH 30 NON WATER RESOURCES ASSESSMENT AND PLANNING SERVICES, UM, AND WHICH IS FUNDED WITH ARPA FUNDS.
TODAY I'M REQUESTING AUTHORIZATION TO APPROVE AND ALLOW THE COUNTY JUDGE TO EXECUTE THE ACTUAL, UH, PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT FOR THEIR SERVICES.
UM, WE HAD, YOU HAD ORIGINALLY BUDGETED OR, UH, ORIGINALLY ALLOCATED $175,000 OF THE ARPA FUNDS FOR THIS, UM, STUDY.
UM, THE STUDY FEE SUMMARY CAME BACK AT 243,469, AND THAT INCLUDES PROJECT MANAGEMENT COORDINATION, POPULATION AND WATER DEMAND PROJECTIONS REVIEW, ASSESSMENT OF WATER SUPPLY SYSTEMS AND NEEDS DEVELOPMENT OF RECOMMENDED WATER SUPPLY IMPLEMENTATION PLAN, LEGISLATIVE COORDINATION AND DEVELOPMENT POLICY REVIEW, AND THEN THE PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT.
AND, UM, I KNOW THAT THERE ARE SOME FUNDS STILL UNALLOCATED FOR ARPA, AND THIS WOULD BE A GOOD WAY TO, UM, FOR THOSE TWO HAVE BEEN OBLIGATED BY OUR DEADLINE OF DECEMBER 20, UH, DECEMBER 31ST, 2024.
UM, IN GOOD USE, OBVIOUSLY THE STUDY.
AND THESE, THIS IS A HIGH, HIGH NEED ISSUE.
JUST, JUST, JUST FOR A LITTLE BACKGROUND HERE, UM, THIS IS, UH, AN OFFSHOOT OF OUR ARPA COMMITTEE, OUR WATER COMMITTEE.
WE, WE HAVE, UH, NARROWED IT DOWN TO ONE FIRM, AND THIS IS THE
[00:55:01]
CONTRACT THAT THEY BROUGHT BACK.I DIDN'T CATCH THE AMOUNT EITHER.
YOU ALL HAVE A, A COPY OF THEIR, UM, OF THE AGREEMENT BEFORE YOU.
SO, SO THIS IS, THIS IS A RECOMMENDATION FROM, FROM OUR HYDROLOGY COMMITTEE MM-HMM.
IT'S ALREADY BEEN APPROVED THROUGH OUR COMMITTEE.
WE, WE, UH, INTERVIEWED AND WE SELECTED, AND THIS IS THE FINAL CONTRACT TO INDEED HIRE AND ENGAGED FRIESEN NICHOLS TO DO THE WORK FOR US, NOT ONLY TO DETERMINE WHAT OUR WATER NEEDS ARE, WHICH IS THE QUESTION THAT WE HAD ASKED, BUT ALSO TO, UH, BECAUSE OF THEIR STATUS.
UH, AS, AS THE, UH, UH, IN THE STATE WATER PLAN PLANNING AREA C UH, THEY'RE THE ONES THAT ACTUALLY DO THAT.
UH, SO IT'S TO GET US IN THE PLAN, GET PARKER COUNTY IN A LINE TO GET SOME WATER, UH, FROM, FROM THE EAST THERE.
SO THIS IS WHERE WE'RE MOVING FORWARD TO WITH OUR COMMITTEE AND, UH, AND, AND LOOKING TO, UH, SECURE ADDITIONAL WATER SOURCES FROM OUTSIDE OF PARKER COUNTY IN ADDITION TO DETERMINING THE NEED AND, AND ALL THAT.
AND CHRIS, YOU WOULD YOU LIKE TO COME UP AND SPEAK ON THIS TOO, BUT THE ARPA FUNDS, THERE'S FUNDS AVAILABLE TO COVER THIS INCREASE, CORRECT? ABSOLUTELY.
UM, UH, YEAH, NO, UH, JESSICA BROWN IS OUR LEAD.
SHE ACTUALLY LIVES IN ALITO AREA AND, AND JUST HAD, UH, SHE'S OUT OF TOWN TODAY.
UH, BUT YEAH, WE, WE DO THE QUITE A BIT IN THE WATER SPACE AND WE'VE DONE REGION C AND, UH, AS WALDEN, UH, COMMISSIONER WALDEN LAID OUT, THE, THE GOAL WOULD BE TO, YOU KNOW, ASSESS THE NEEDS, LOOK AT THE, THERE'S BEEN SEVERAL PAST STUDIES AND KIND OF PULL THOSE TOGETHER.
AND IT'S LOOKING 50 YEARS INTO THE FUTURE AND COMING OUT OF IT WITH SHORT TERM AND LONG, LONG-TERM ACTIONS, UH, THAT THE COUNTY CAN TAKE AND, UH, SEEK ADDITIONAL FUNDS.
YEAH, THIS REALLY DOES PLAY WELL INTO, UH, WHAT THE COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS HAS REQUESTED AND THE EXTENUATION OF THAT PLAN THAT WE'RE TRYING TO DEVELOP, UH, MIKE MORRIS SPECIFICALLY.
SO WE CAN COORDINATE WITH THEM AND THEN COME BACK WITH THE REPORT WITH THEM THAT THIS IS WHAT WE'RE DOING AS WELL.
SO IN THE, IN THE WORLD OF ENGINEERING, FREEZING NICHOLS, UH, I THINK TRANSPORTATION IS KIND OF A SMALL PART OF WHAT THEY DO.
THE THE MAIN THING THEY DO IS WATER.
AND, UH, SO WE'RE VERY, VERY, UH, UH, GLAD TO BE ABLE TO BRING THEM ON BOARD, WORKING FOR US TO SECURE ADDITIONAL WATER RESOURCES FOR PARKER COUNTY.
WE A MOTION, BUT COMMISSIONER WALTERS MADE THE MOTION SECOND BY COMMISSIONER HALE.
ANY OTHER DISCUSSION? ALL IN FAVOR CARRIES FIVE.

SO TO USE, UM, THIS SO YOU DON'T UPGRADE IT EVERY TIME THERE'S A NEW MAYOR? NO, I DON'T.
YOU DON'T RECOMMEND THAT OR I I IT'S NOT A BAD PROCESS.
I, I THINK IT'S A GOOD IDEA FOR THE ROAD.
WELL, IT'S BEEN YEARS SINCE IT'S BEEN UPGRADED, RIGHT? WELL, THIS ONE I CAN, I COULD NOT FIND YEAH.
ONE FROM BEFORE AND IT COULD BE THAT DURING THE RANSOMWARE OR ATTACK IT, MENTION THAT WAS LOST.
WELL, EVEN WITH A CHANGE IN MAYOR AND IN, OBVIOUSLY IT HAPPENS QUITE OFTEN, THERE'S STILL CONTINUITY THERE WITH THIS.

[5.P. Discuss/Take action on renewal contracts for East Parker County Library for fiscal 2024/2025 and take any action the court deems necessaiy. (John Forrest / Judge Deen)]
P ON DISCUSS, TAKE ACTION AND RENEWAL CONTRACTS FOR EAST PARKER COUNTY LIBRARY FOR FISCAL 24, 25.WE DID GET CONFIRMATION BACK THAT THE, UH, THE CITY OF ALITO HAS ACQUIRED, UH, AND, UH, TAKEN FINANCIAL, UH, OWNERSHIP AND, UH, WELL ACQUIRED THE, THE LIBRARY.
AND, UH, THEN THAT TAKES IT TO A DIFFERENT DISCUSSION WHETHER WE WANT TO FUND A MUNICIPAL OWNED LIBRARY.
UM, WE DID WITH WEATHERFORD, BUT THAT DOES CHANGE THIS NOW WITH, WITH ALITO THAT IT WAS PURELY FOCUSED ON DONATIONS FOR THE LIBRARY WITH THE CITY OF ALITO BEING A LARGE CONTRIBUTOR, BUT NOW THEY OWN IT.
SO THE COURT'S INDULGENCE OF WHAT WE WANT TO DO THERE.
JOHN, IS THERE ANY, JUST A MATTER OF WHAT WE WANT TO DO, BUT IT IS OWNED BY JUST AN OPTION OF THE COURT TO MAKE THAT DETERMINATION, BUT IT IS OWNED COMPLETELY AND SOLELY BY THE CITY OF ALITO.
NOW, HOW IS THE WEATHERFORD LIBRARY, WOULD THAT, WHAT WOULD BE THE DIFFERENCE IN THE EAST PARKER VERSUS THE WEATHERFORD? DO WE KNOW WEATHERFORD? I DON'T, THEY'RE NOT TAKING THE FUNDS CURRENTLY.
WEATHERFORD, IN, IN WEATHERFORD'S CASE, FOR MANY YEARS, WE'D MADE A CONTRIBUTION.
UH, AND, UH, WE'VE OFFERED THAT CONTRIBUTION THAT'S BEEN TURNED DOWN, TURNED, TURNED DOWN, BEEN TURNED DOWN.
AND WHAT THEY DO IN, IN, IN LIEU OF THAT IS NON-CITY RESIDENTS ARE REQUIRED TO PAY A $50 ANNUAL FEE, UH, TO USE THE LIBRARY PER FAMILY.
UH, WE HAVE ALLOCATED FUNDING TO THE FRIENDS OF THE PUBLIC LIBRARY THAT IF SOMEONE NEEDS TO GET A SCHOLARSHIP, IF YOU WILL, OR A VOUCHER, THEN UH, THEY ARE DOING THAT AND WE WILL REIMBURSE THEM.
THEY HAVE NOT ASKED FOR REIMBURSEMENT THUS FAR.
SO I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE POLICY IS AT ALITO.
IN THE PAST I KNEW THAT ALITO EAST PARKER COUNTY LIBRARY WAS FREE TO ANYONE THAT WANTED TO USE IT.
AND THE FEE, I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE SITUATION IS NOW, THE FEEDBACK IS THAT THEY, UH, WOULD ENCOURAGE DONATIONS, BUT AGAIN, IT'S PART OF THEIR BUDGET NOW THAT THEY HAVE, UH, THAT THEY'VE TAKEN RESPONSIBILITY ON.
SO HELP ME UNDERSTAND SOMETHING.
HAVE WE HISTORICALLY CONTRIBUTED? YES.
HOW MUCH HAVE WE CONTRIBUTED TO THE EAST PARK COUNTY? ROUGHLY 5,000, I BELIEVE.
I, I BELIEVE THAT'S THE NUMBER MY WILL RECALL.
WILL THE FRIENDS OF THE LIBRARY, IS THAT A WEATHERFORD LIBRARY ONLY ENTITY, OR IS THAT FOR ALL LIBRARY? YES, YES.
IT'S FOR THE WEATHERFORD, IT'S WEATHERFORD ONLY.
IT, IT ACTUALLY FOR EAST PARK COUNTY, $22,770, WHAT THAT CONTRIBUTION HAD BEEN IN THE PAST 22,000.
I, I THINK WE GET INTO A TRICKY SITUATION IF WE'RE GOING TO ASSIST DIRECTLY IN FUNDING WITH ONE MUNICIPALITY'S LIBRARY, BUT NOT ANOTHER.
SO MY PREFERENCE, I THINK WHAT WE'RE DOING RIGHT NOW WITH THE FRIENDS OF THE LIBRARY WHERE WE'RE MAKING SCHOLARSHIPS AVAILABLE EFFECTIVELY FOR THOSE IN NEED, GIVEN THE OFFSET COST, TO ME, THAT MAKES THE MOST SENSE, ESPECIALLY BECAUSE WE JUST GOT DONE WITH BUDGET.
AND THIS IS NOT, TO MY UNDERSTANDING, THIS IS NOT A MANDATE ON THE COUNTY.
IT'S NOT MANDATE, AND IT'S CERTAINLY NOT A FUNDED MANDATE.
SO I THINK WE OUGHT TO HANDLE IT LIKE WE DO, WHETHER IF THEY, SOMEBODY WANTS TO JOIN, WE'LL PAY THEIR, BUT I DON'T KNOW WHEN THE CITY, I KNOW THAT THEY HAD PLANS TO MOVE THE LIBRARY INTO THEIR NEW CITY HALL, WHICH HAS NOT STARTED GOING VERTICAL.
I'M NOT SURE IF THEY'VE TAKEN OWNERSHIP AT THIS POINT OF THE LIBRARY.
SO THEY'RE OPERATING THAT FACILITY NOW? THEY'RE OPERATING THAT FACILITY, YES.
NOW, THE FLIP SIDE OF THIS IS THE ACTUAL CITY LIMITS AND ALITOS PRETTY SMALL, SO I WOULD IMAGINE THERE'S
[01:10:01]
QUITE A BIT AS IT'S NAMED EAST PARKER COUNTY, THERE'S QUITE A FEW FOLKS, AND MYSELF INCLUDED, I HAVE AN ALITO ADDRESS, BUT I'M IN THE COUNTY, MY FAMILY'S IN THE COUNTY.AND SO BEING A TRANSITION YEAR, I AM, I DO LIKE THE FRIENDS OF THE LIBRARY THAT'S INVOLVED WITH WEATHERFORD, AND I THINK THAT THAT'D BE A GOOD WAY TO LOOK AT GOING FORWARD.
BUT I THINK WITH THE TRANSITION, I THINK WE SHOULD HAVE SOME CONSIDERATION THERE FROM THE COUNTY.
MY PERSONAL OPINION SPECIFICALLY, WHAT ARE YOU ADVOCATING? WHAT, WHAT YOUR THOUGHTS ON THAT? I MEAN, I GUESS EXPAND ON WHAT YOU'RE SAYING.
WELL, I, I MEAN THERE'S, THERE'S SOME, THE WAY IT'S SOUNDING, IT'S ALMOST LIKE WE'RE SETTING THE PRECEDENCE HERE.
AND I DON'T WANNA STEP TOO FAR IN THE WEEDS ON SOMETHING IN THE WRONG DIRECTION, BUT A MUNICIPALITY, IF THEY'RE TAKING OVER WITH THE EXPECTATION OF THE FUNDING THAT'S BEEN IN PLACE IN THE PAST, OR AT LEAST SOME OF IT, UM, I MEAN, NOT PERSONALLY, I WOULD HAVE THAT DISCUSSION, BUT COMMISSIONER, WHAT, WHAT IF YOU WERE TO, UH, HAVE THAT DISCUSSION YEAH.

[8.D. PRECINCT 4 (Part 2 of 2)]
MOVE TO ITEM D PRECINCT FOUR.APPROVE THE GROUNDWATER WAIVER FROM IRWIN DRILLING WITH A SUBDIVISION BE KNOWN AS MCCLENDON WALKER ROAD.
SO THE DATA ON THIS SAYS THAT STATES THAT THERE IS A YIELD OF 50 PLUS GPM.
UH, I'VE GOT AN EMAIL FROM DOUG SHAW THAT HAS, UH, SOME ISSUES WITH THE WELL LOCATION ON THIS DEVELOPMENT.
I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS THE TIME THAT WE NEED TO DISCUSS IT.
UM, THE WELL REPORT THAT WE DID WAS ON THE WELL THAT IS CURRENTLY THERE.
SO WE HAVE THIS ON THE AGENDA TODAY, UH, TO BEGIN THE REVISION PROCESS.
BUT DOUG IS STATING THAT THE WELL MUST REMAIN IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE SPACING REQUIREMENTS.
WHEN THIS WAS ORIGINALLY APPROVED, IT WAS COMPLIANT WITH THE REQUIREMENT TO BE 50 FEET FROM THE NEAREST PROPERTY LINE.
BUT WITH THEIR NEW LOCATION, IF THIS PLAT IS APPROVED, THE WELL WILL NO LONGER BE COMPLIANT WITH THE 50 FOOT, 50 FOOT PROPERTY LINE SPACING.
SO I DIDN'T KNOW IF YOU WANTED TO APPROVE IT AS PRELIMINARY UNTIL THEY CAN GET THIS STUFF FIXED AND THEN BRING IT BACK IN AS A FINAL OR IF YOU'D FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE JUST TAKING NO ACTION.
AND THIS IS ONE OF THESE THAT WAS RELEASED FROM THE CITY OF FORT WORTH ALSO.
IT'S NOT A WELL WE'RE ON THIS RIGHT HERE.
SO THE RECOMMENDATION IS TO TAKE NO ACTION ON THIS AT THIS TIME BECAUSE WE HAVE SOME QUESTIONS AND OBVIOUSLY THERE'S ISSUES WITH UPPER TRINITY.
THAT WELL WOULDN'T BE GRANDFATHERED IN.
UH, WELL THE WELL IS GRANDFATHERED IN BECAUSE IT WAS DONE PRIOR TO 2009.
BUT I GUESS BECAUSE OF WHERE THEY ARE GOING TO BE PUTTING IN A NEW WELL, IT'S NOT GONNA MEET THE 50 FOOT SPACING REQUIREMENT FOR WELLS THAT PRODUCE UNDER 17.36 GPM.
SO I GUESS THE OPPORTUNITY HAS DIFFERENT RULES FOR WELLS THAT PRODUCE MORE OR LESS ACCORDING TO WHAT THEY'VE, YOU KNOW, SENT IN.
SO IF THE BEGINNING OF THE REVISION, WE COULD SPEND MONEY.
OR WE COULD JUST, WE WOULD HOLD IT UNTIL THEY PROPER PROBLEMS ARE ADDRESSED WITH THE OPPORTUNITY.
SO THE RECOMMENDATION, NO ACTION.
WE WERE ON THE, UM, GROUNDWATER.
SO THEN WE CAN JUST TAKE NO ACTION ON NUMBER TWO.
IT TAKES US TO KIND OF A WEIRD DEAL.
ITEM TWO BEGIN AND SAME BEGIN THE REVISION FOR A SUBDIVISION KNOWN AS MCCLENDON WALKER ROAD EDITION LOCATED WITHIN UTJ OF FORT WORTH.
