MR. PETERSON. THANK YOU.

COUNCIL THE CITY HAS RECENTLY OPENED UP BIDS ON APRIL 12, 2022 FOR THE PACKAGE ONE STREET BOND PROJECT THAT THOSE ROADS WERE RIDGECREST AND ROBIN HOOD.

WE DID RECEIVE TWO BIDS ON THAT.

ONE WAS FROM HCI AND ONE WAS FROM MATULA AND MATULA.

HE WAS THE LOWEST APPARENT BIDDER.

WENT BACK AND WE DID THE BID TABULATIONS.

THERE WERE SOME LITTLE CORRECTIONS THAT NEED TO BE MADE BUT DIDN'T CHANGE ORDER.

SO IT CAME OUT THAT HIGH WAS THE APPARENT LOW BIDDER AT 1.66 MILLION.

WE HAD BUDGETED OR STATED WE THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO BE 2.1, WHICH IS RIGHT ABOUT WHERE THE TWO OF THEM ACTUALLY CAME IN.

SO WE ENTERED INTO THE EVALUATION OF THE APPARENT LOW BIDDER PHASE WHEN WE STARTED DOING THAT, WORKING WITH THE CONTRACTOR. THEY HAVE NOT HAD A PROJECT OF THIS SIZE PREVIOUSLY.

OUR BIGGEST ONE WAS SOMETHING VERY SIMILAR FOR THE CITY OF LAKE JACKSON, WHICH WAS 700 AND SOMETHING THOUSAND.

WE CALLED LAKE JACKSON.

LAKE JACKSON WAS VERY PLEASED WITH THEM AND THE PERFORMANCE SAID THEY WOULD LIKE TO USE THEM AGAIN.

WE MAINTAINED COORDINATION WITH THE CITY STAFF ON PROJECTS THAT THEY'VE DONE IN HERE.

THEY'VE DONE THE MILLER STREET OVER THERE WHERE WE DID THE ASPHALT AND WE DID SOME SOME PREVIOUS WORK OVER THERE ON THE SANITARY SEWER.

THEY WORKED WELL WITH STAFF ON THAT PROJECT.

THEY WORKED WELL ON THE STAFF, ON A COUPLE OF OTHER PAVING REPAIR PROJECTS, COORDINATING WITH THEM ON THEIR AVAILABILITY BECAUSE THEY HAVE ONE.

THE LAST TWO PROJECTS THAT WE HAVE BID OUT FOR THE CITY OF ANGLETON.

THEY HAVE WON THE STATION EIGHT PROJECT THAT THEY'RE CURRENTLY WORKING ON, AND THEY HAVE ALSO WON THE MILLER PARRISH STREET PROJECT THAT THEY'RE WORKING ON, COORDINATED WITH THEM ON THEIR SCHEDULE.

IT APPEARS THAT THEY OUGHT TO BE FINISHED UP WITH STATION EIGHT PRIOR TO THE BEGINNING OF THIS PROJECT.

WE CAN'T START THE PACKAGE ONE PROJECT UNTIL THE 1ST OF JUNE DUE TO THE SCHOOL.

WE DON'T WANT TO GET IN THERE AND START MESSING AROUND WITH PEOPLE'S TRAVEL IN AND OUT AND DROP OFF.

THEY ALSO BELIEVE THAT THEY'LL BE DONE WITH STATION EIGHT AND THEY MAY BE DONE A LITTLE BIT SOONER THAN WE THOUGHT.

THEY'RE WORKING PRETTY, PRETTY GOOD.

AND WE'VE GOT SOME GOOD NEWS TODAY.

ALSO, THEY PLAN ON GETTING PARRISH MOTOR STREET COMPLETED BEFORE THAT, TOO.

SO. SO THEY SHOULD THEY SHOULD HAVE BOTH OF THOSE PROJECTS DONE.

THEY FEEL THAT THEY HAVE THE CREW, THEY HAVE THE EQUIPMENT, AND THEY HAVE THE EXPERIENCE TO DO THIS PROJECT, SUCCESSFULLY COORDINATED WITH CITY STAFF AND STAFF THAT THEY ALSO DO, TOO. THEY'VE WORKED WELL WITH THE CITY OF ANGLETON ON ANY ISSUES IN THE PAST TO COME UP WITH BILL CHANGES.

[00:10:01]

SO FOR THAT REASON AND THE REASON THAT THEY'VE DONE SIMILAR PROJECTS OR SIMILAR WORK, WHICH IS SMALLER, WE BELIEVE THAT THE CITY OF ANGLETON SHOULD AWARD THE CONTRACT FOR THE STREET BOND PROJECT PACKAGE ONE FOR A TOTAL OF 1.1 MILLION $660,385.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU, JOHN.

QUESTIONS FROM MORE COMMENTS FROM COUNCIL.

YES, A FEW THINGS THAT I NEED TO BRING OUT TO YOU THERE.

WE'VE ALREADY MENTIONED A COUPLE OF THINGS.

THE THE FIRST THING THAT JUMPS OFF THE TABLE AT ME IS 21% DIFFERENCE BETWEEN IN PRICE BETWEEN THE HIGH BIDDER AND THE SECOND BIDDER, THE LOW BIDDER AND THE HIGH BIDDER.

THAT'S A QUANTITY OF $543,000 DIFFERENCE IN THE TWO BIDS.

I'M NOT AN ESTIMATOR.

I DON'T KNOW HOW TO PUT THE BIDS TOGETHER, BUT IT'S A LOT.

THAT'S A PRETTY BIG SPREAD.

YEAH. WHEN YOU HAVE ONE BIDDER THAT COMES IN THREE FOURTHS, THE PRICE OF THE THE HIGH BIDDER.

WERE THEY QUERIED ABOUT THEIR PRICE? YES, SIR. ACTUALLY, YES, SIR.

THAT WAS ONE OF MY FIRST THINGS IN THE LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION.

WE ALSO TALK ABOUT WE DID TALK TO THEM ABOUT THE PRICE AND THEY FEEL THAT THEY BID THIS PROJECT CORRECTLY TO DO THIS WORK.

I KNOW WE CIVIL ENGINEERS THAT JUMPS OFF THE PAGE AT YOU WHEN YOU.

YES. IT'S HARD TO TO JUDGE WHEN YOU'VE ONLY GOT TWO BIDDERS.

ALL RIGHT. YOU CAN'T FORCE ANYBODY TO BID TO BID TO WORK.

BUT I WAS. A LITTLE BIT.

THE ANOTHER CONCERN I HAVE IS AND THIS IS THE BIGGER ONE, THEY HAVE NOT DONE A SEVEN INCH REINFORCED CONCRETE PAVEMENT PROJECT TO THIS MAGNITUDE OR EVEN HALF THIS MAGNITUDE.

THE PAVING PROJECTS THAT THEY HAVE REFERENCED OR LISTED OR WHATEVER AMOUNT TO PUTTING IN A FEW PANELS OF CONCRETE ON SOME PREVIOUSLY CONSTRUCTED CONCRETE STREETS IN LAKE JACKSON IS JUST MINIMAL. THEY'RE GOING TO BE WORKING IN A IN A RESIDENTIAL AREA.

SO WE'RE GOING TO PROVIDE ACCESS TO, AS THEY DID ON RICHMOND'S, AS WAS DONE ON RICHMOND STREET.

EVERYONE HAS TO HAVE.

TO SOME DEGREE ACCESS TO THEIR HOME AT ALL TIMES.

MAYBE EVEN A MORE CONCERNING ISSUE IS HEAVEN FORBID ANYTHING GOES WRONG.

BUT THEY'RE ON RIDGECREST, NEXT TO NORTHSIDE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.

WE'RE PRETTY MUCH COMMITTING TO HAVING THAT STREET READY FOR BUSSES TO COME IN THEIR FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL.

NOW, I JUST WANT US TO ALL THINK ABOUT THIS.

I APPRECIATE THEIR DESIRE TO WANT TO DO DO THE WORK.

BUT I'M. I DON'T WANT TO USE A BAD WORD, BUT I DON'T WANT TO BE THE GUINEA PIG ON THEM LEARNING HOW TO DO.

CONCRETE STREETS LIKE THIS AND.

WE'VE GOT A COMMITMENT ON A TIMELINE THAT WE HAVE TO HAVE DONE.

I DID DISCUSS THE SCHEDULE.

BUT AGAIN, LIKE YOU SAID, CIVIL ENGINEERS WOULD LOOK AT THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE THE BIDS THAT CAME IN.

SO WE ASKED THEM, ARE YOU COMFORTABLE WITH THE PRICES? DO YOU FEEL THAT YOU CAN DO THIS? WE HAD SEVERAL MEETINGS, YES.

I GOT AN EMAIL WHERE HE SAID, YES, WE CAN HAVE THIS DONE.

I EXPECT HIM TO SAY THAT.

FIRST THING YOU GOING TO DO IS FIRE.

YOU WON'T EVEN TAKE THEIR BID IF YOU DON'T.

IF THEY SAID, NO, I DON'T THINK WE CAN DO IT, BUT WE'LL TRY.

BUT THEY FEEL THAT THEY CAN DO IT.

THEY LOOK AT A SCHEDULE AND PROVIDED SCHEDULING ON IT TO WHERE THEY BELIEVE THAT THEY'LL CLEAR THEIR CURRENT LOAD TO WHERE THEY CAN FOCUS IN ON THAT PROJECT.

SO AS FAR AS WHAT WE CAN DO TO HAVE THEM VERIFY AND HAVE THEM SHOW US HOW THEY'RE GOING TO DO IT, IT HAD THEM AND IT WAS CORRECT. THIS IS THE FIRST PROJECT LIKE.

WELL, LET ME ASK YOU, WHAT'S YOU STATED THAT YOU ASKED THEM TO DEMONSTRATE? HOW WOULD YOU? HOW WOULD THEY DO THAT? FIRST OFF, THEY WOULD BECAUSE THEY'RE SUCH A SMALLER COMPANY, THEY HAVE TO CLEAR THEIR WORK LOAD, WHICH THEY'VE ADMITTED THAT THEY CAN DO BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE THE RESOURCES THAT THE TWO OF THEM AND TWO OR A LARGER CONTRACTOR WILL.

SO THEY HAVE THEY HAVE SAID, YES, WE PLAN ON HAVING THIS DONE.

WE ARE GOING TO HAVE THIS DONE. WE'RE NOT GOING TO BUILD ANY MORE PROJECTS IN THE CITY OF ANGLETON UNTIL WE GET AT LEAST HALFWAY DONE WITH THIS, BECAUSE THEY'RE GOING TO FOCUS ON

[00:15:04]

THIS PROJECT. SO AS FAR AS THAT GOES.

TALKING TO THE GENTLEMAN AT LAKE JACKSON, HE REALLY THOUGHT THAT THEY COULD HE FELT COMFORTABLE SAYING THAT HE WOULD LOOK AT THEM AND DOING A PROJECT OF THIS NATURE.

THEY'VE DONE A GREAT JOB FOR THEM ON THAT PROJECT.

LIKE I SAID, IT WASN'T A ONE OR $2 MILLION PROJECT.

IT WAS ONLY $700,000 PROJECT, WHICH IS WHAT DID THEY DO? THEY DID LAKE JACKSON.

THEY REMOVED THE STREET AND POURED SOME QUANTITY.

GIVE ME SOME QUANTITIES HERE.

I'VE GOT THAT AT THE OFFICE ANYWHERE NEAR THIS.

OK, 20% OF THIS SIZE, 10%.

THIS IS PROBABLY PROBABLY CLOSER TO 30 TO 40% OF THIS SIZE.

WE GOT A COUPLE QUESTIONS.

BUT THE WORK THAT THEY'VE DONE WITH THIS BEFORE, HAS THERE BEEN A HISTORY OF CHANGE ORDERS? NO, NO, NO.

NOT THAT WEREN'T JUSTIFIED.

JUST, YOU KNOW, WHENEVER THERE'S A LITTLE BIT, YOU KIND OF YOU WANT TO LOOK AT THEM, MAKE SURE THERE'S THERE'S NO ROOM FOR THEM TO COME BACK ON SOMETHING SMALL OR BIG. AND ALSO, DO THEY FORESEE ANY PROBLEMS WITH SUPPLY OF MATERIALS AS FAR AS CONCRETE OR ANYTHING? NO, SIR. WE HAD THAT DISCUSSION.

BECAUSE THAT'S THAT'S A BIG ONE FOR KEEPING ON SCHEDULE FOR BEGINNING OF SCHOOL YEAR.

YES. AND THEY HAVE DONE PROJECTS IN NEIGHBORHOODS JUST NOT PAVING.

YOU KNOW, THEY'RE DOING THE LIFT STATION WHERE THEY'RE RUNNING DOWN RUNNING DOWN THE ROAD WITH WITH EQUIPMENT AND STUFF.

THEY WORKED IN RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS, BUT THERE'S A BIG DIFFERENCE.

WE WORK IN RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS AND WE'RE MOVING STREET TO WHERE YOU HAVE TO PUT TEMPORARY ACCESS TO PEOPLE'S HOMES AND THINGS LIKE THAT.

BUT THEY FEEL COMFORTABLE THAT THEY CAN DO THIS.

AND. TALKING WITH CITY STAFF CITY STAFF BELIEVES THAT THEY HAVE THE CAPABILITIES OF DOING THIS TO.

WELL, CAN I ASK, DID THEY TELL YOU WHO THEIR CONCRETE SUPPLIER IS? I DID NOT GET THAT FAR INTO THE WEEDS AND THAT.

WAS THERE A PROJECT SCHEDULE SUBMITTED OR REQUESTED? I ASKED THEM ABOUT THEIR PROJECT FINISHING UP THEIR PROJECTS, AND THEY DID SAY THEY GAVE ME BASICALLY TIMELINES OF WHEN THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE THIS DONE AND THAT DONE AS FAR AS THE ACTUAL PROJECT.

THEY HAVEN'T REALLY GOT IN AND THEY'RE SAYING WE LOOKED AT THE FIRST PHASE OF THE FIRST PHASE OF THE PHASE THAT HAS TO BE DONE.

THE SITE IS CLOSEST TO THE SCHOOL.

YES, THAT HAS TO BE DONE FIRST IN ORDER FOR THE BUSSES TO COME IN AND ALLOW THE TEACHERS TO PARK.

WE CAN WE CAN MANEUVER EVERYTHING ELSE AROUND.

AND WE WORK CLOSELY WITH THE SCHOOL DISTRICT ON MANEUVERING EVERYTHING ELSE AROUND TO LIMIT THE IMPACT THAT THEY'LL HAVE ON THEIR ROUTINE PICK UP AND DROP OFFS.

AND THIS INCLUDES THE SANITARY SEWER.

ARE WE DOING THE SANITARY SEWER? SEWER IN THE BACK? LOTS.

WE'RE ONLY DOING THE WATER LINE THERE IN THAT AREA.

AND WHAT ABOUT THE DRAINAGE? THE CULVERTS ARE IMPROVING THE DRAINAGE IN THAT AREA.

AND THAT'S ALL INCLUDED IN THE BID? YES, SIR. THERE'S VERY LITTLE DRAINAGE ON THIS.

I MEAN, WE'RE GOING TO UPSIZE THE PIPE AND ONLY RUNNING STORM WATER UP HALFWAY UP THE BLOCK JUST BECAUSE THERE'S NO FALL DOWN THERE TO SURE TO TAKE IT ANY FURTHER THAN THAT.

OKAY. MR. MAYOR? YES, SIR.

I UNDERSTAND EVERYONE'S CONCERN, BUT I MEAN, HEARING FROM OUR ENGINEER, FROM CITY STAFF REFERENCES.

I MEAN, I'M LIKE EVERYONE ELSE GOING, WOLF.

HALF A MILLION DOLLARS LESS.

IT WAS A BIG RED FLAG TO ME AS WELL.

BUT I MEAN, IT SOUNDS LIKE DUE DILIGENCE HAS BEEN DONE AND THEY'VE BEEN DOING WORK FOR US.

IF WE DIDN'T TRUST THEM, WE WOULDN'T BE HIRING THEM FOR THIS OTHER STUFF.

I DON'T I AGREE WITH COUNCILMAN BOOTH.

IT'S TOUGH BEING THE GUINEA PIG, BUT EVERYTHING CHECKS OUT AT THIS MOMENT.

TO PUT THAT IN MOTION.

I FEEL ALREADY I'M KIND OF TORN MYSELF BECAUSE I THINK MATULA COMES WITH A GOOD REPUTATION.

ON THE OTHER HAND, THE BALANCES WE HAVE THE CHANCE FOR COST SAVINGS THAT MAYBE ALLOW US TO SPREAD THAT SOMEWHERE ELSE AT SOME POINT IN TIME.

AND SO.

YEAH. THAT'S JUST KIND OF WHERE I AM.

SO. MR. MAYOR, I MOVE WE APPROVE HTI FOR NOT TO EXCEED AMOUNT OF ONE $1,660,385 FOR THE 2021 STREET BOND PROJECT.

PHASE ONE HAVE A MOTION BY MAYOR PRO TEM WRIGHT TO HAVE A SECOND.

[00:20:02]

I ALSO HAVE A SECOND BY COUNCILMAN [INAUDIBLE].

ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? YES, GO AHEAD, SIR.

WHEN EVALUATING THE TWO BIDS, WHAT COULD YOU SEE? THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE WAS THAT LABOR RATES OR COST OF MATERIALS? ESTIMATED COST OF MATERIALS.

IT WAS IT WAS A LOT OF LIKE THE COST OF DRAINAGE, DRAINAGE ITEMS, THINGS OF THAT NATURE.

THERE WERE SOME SOME OF THE ITEMS JUST WERE WAY OFF, FOR INSTANCE, LIKE SIX INCH WET NET.

YOU KNOW, THEY THEY BID A SIX INCH WET CONNECT THAT.

THOUSAND VERSUS THREE VERSUS 4000.

YOU KNOW, IT'S JUST HOW THEY DO THEIR PROCESSES, THINGS OF THAT NATURE MAKE IT A LITTLE EASIER ON YOU.

THE DIFFERENCE IN THE PRICE OF THE TWO PROJECTS WAS CONCRETE.

COME ON, YOU'RE UP THERE.

$453,820. YEAH.

YOU JUST TAKE THE PAVING SECTIONS AND COMPARE THE TWO PAVING SECTIONS, RETRACE PAVING ITEMS VERSUS AND ROBIN HOOD PAVING ITEMS. THERE WAS A DIFFERENCE OF $312,500 THERE.

SO OF THE 453, 312 WAS IN JUST IN PAVING ALONE.

SO THAT'S THE ONLY THING I COMPARED.

YEAH. IT LEAVES YOU 101 HUNDRED AND SOME ODD THOUSAND DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO ON EVERYTHING ELSE.

I WILL SAY THAT IF WE'RE IF THIS MOVES FORWARD HIGH AND THIS IS OUR FIRST PROJECT, I WOULD HOPE CITY STAFF IS VERY, VERY WATCHFUL AND WHAT'S GOING ON. SO I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE WE'RE DON'T LET THEM GO ANY FURTHER WITHOUT DOUBLE CHECKING, TRIPLE CHECKING, MAKING SURE THAT IT'S ALL TO OUR SPECIFICATIONS IN THIS PROJECT.

AS FAR AS STREET PROJECTS DURING THIS PROJECT IS MORE OF A SIMPLER PROJECT.

IT'S THE RIGHT OF WAYS IS WHY IT'S CLEAR EVERYWHERE.

WE'RE ONLY GOING TO HAVE ONE SLOPE CHANGE IN THE WHOLE PROJECT.

RIGHT NOW IT GOES BASICALLY FROM TEN TO THE ALL THE WAY DOWN TO DOWN, AND WE'RE GOING TO PUT ONE SLOPE INTO THE MIDDLE.

THAT'S IT. SO IT'S NOT LIKE YOUR TYPICAL OR YOUR SALT CUTTING ALL THE WAY DOWN.

IT'S BASICALLY FOLLOWING THE EXISTING THE EXISTING RIGHT OF WAY WITH ONE SMART, ONE SMALLER CHANGE.

SO, WELL, MY GUESS IS GETTING IT DONE BEFORE THE SCHOOL.

GOOD. I WAS JUST GOING TO SAY, MY HOPE IS THEY SEE THIS AS AN OPPORTUNITY.

RIGHT. AND THEY WANT TO PUT THEIR BEST FOOT FORWARD SO THEY CAN HAVE NOT JUST MORE CONTRACTS WITH US, THE CITY, BUT MAYBE I'M SURE THEY WOULD LIKE TO EXPAND THEMSELVES. SO YEAH, AS A BUSINESS MODEL, I MEAN, ALSO IF COUNCIL JUST REMIND COUNCIL THEY'RE GOING TO BE FULLY FUNDED.

SO THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE A PAYMENT AND A PERFORMANCE BOND WHERE THE PERFORMANCE BOND, IF THEY DON'T DO IT AND THAT COMES IN AND FINISH IT OUT OR THEY'LL FIX WHATEVER IS WRONG IF THEY DON'T PAY THEIR SUBS, THE PAYMENT BOND IS HERE NOW, SO THERE SHOULDN'T BE ANY SUBS.

THEY'RE GOING TO DO MAJORITY OF ELSE.

AND THIS ISN'T THE FIRST JOB THAT THEY'VE BEEN SIGNIFICANTLY LOWER THAN WE THOUGHT.

AND THEY DID A GOOD JOB IN THOSE.

THAT'S WHY I HAVE A LITTLE BIT MORE COMFORTABLE COMFORT WITH THEM.

BUT YEAH, I AGREE WITH EVERYONE'S ASSESSMENTS UP HERE.

BUT I MEAN, YOU'VE DONE EVERYTHING YOU'VE SAID AND I'M NOT THE ENGINEER.

SO IF YOU TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT THE LIFT STATION EIGHT AND ALL THE OTHER PROJECTS THAT WE'VE GOT THERE, THERE'S A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WHAT THEY'RE DOING AND THE PROJECTS, FOUR VERSUS TWO ON THE TWO.

THEY'RE ROUGHLY IN THE SAME REALM OF DIFFERENCE.

CORRECT? YEAH.

YEAH. THE THE GUYS HAVE ALREADY KIND OF SAID WHAT I WAS ALREADY THINKING.

MY BIGGEST THING WAS WE INSPECT IT AND WE STAY ON TOP OF THEM.

Y'ALL WILL BE OUT THERE, I'M SURE, ON A WEEKLY BASIS PUTTING EYES ON IT.

THERE IS THE LEGAL SIDE THAT IF THEY DON'T PERFORM, THERE'S AVENUES THAT WE CAN GET THAT CORRECTED.

AND ALSO, LIKE JOHN SAID, MY ANXIETY LOAD, BECAUSE WE'VE DONE WORK WITH HIM, I SEE THEM JUST ABOUT EVERY DAY OVER THERE TO THE STATION.

I PASS BY IT EVERY DAY AND I'VE SEEN THEM WORKING OVER THERE.

I'VE SEEN IT EVEN THOUGH IT'S DIRT AND PIPE.

I THINK IT LOOKS OKAY.

IT LOOKS GOOD. THEY'RE NOT TEARING ANYTHING UP.

IT LOOKS I'VE WATCHED THEM WORK THE STREET WORK IN TRAFFIC.

SO THEY'VE DONE THEIR BEST OVER THERE.

SO THAT KIND OF HELPS ME AS WELL.

LOWER MY ANXIETY JUST A LITTLE BIT.

AND I ALWAYS HAVE TO SAY, BUT YOU GOT TO START SOMEWHERE TOO.

AND THIS IS MAYBE LIKE TRAVIS SAID, THIS IS THEIR OPPORTUNITY TO SHINE AND THEN WE TOOT THE HORN FOR THEM IN THE FUTURE.

THEY MAY GET OTHER CONTRACTS AROUND US WHERE THEY NEED TO TAKE THAT THE NEXT STEP.

YES, SIR. YES, SIR.

WELL, THERE'S GREAT CONVERSATIONS, GREAT COMMENTS.

THANK YOU, CECIL, FOR LOOKING INTO THAT, BEING OUR RESIDENT ENGINEER ON THE COUNCIL.

WE APPRECIATE THAT.

ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS?

[00:25:01]

HEARING ON OUR CALL FOR THE VOTE.

ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SIGNIFY BY SAYING I, I.

ALL THOSE SAME SIGN.

WE HAVE A ONE, TWO, FOUR, TWO, FOUR, ONE.

THANK YOU, SIR. MOVE RIGHT ALONG.

[4. Discussion and possible action to award a contract to Sustanite Support Services, LLC for the Freedom Park Groundwater Treatment System project and authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement upon legal review.]

ITEM NUMBER FOUR DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION TO AWARD CONTRACT TO ASSESS THE KNIGHT SUPPORT SERVICES.

WHO'S GOING TO BE ME? THANK YOU, MAYOR COUNCIL.

GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS SO NATURALLY I'M WITH FRAZER NICHOLLS AND ENGINEER OF RECORD FOR THE FREEDOM PARK WATER IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT.

IN TOTAL WE RECEIVED ABOUT SIX BIDS THAT WERE PRETTY CLOSE TOGETHER.

THE ENGINEERS, OPEC WAS ABOUT 1.27 MILLION.

I DON'T HAVE MY NOTES IN FRONT OF ME, SO I'LL BE.

YEAH, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

AND THE NO BID FROM TONIGHT WAS 1.12 MILLION.

SO ALL OF THESE ALL THESE BIDS WERE KIND OF PRETTY CLOSE TO WHAT WE WERE EXPECTING AND CLOSE TOGETHER.

AND WE GOT A GOOD CROSS SECTION, ABOUT SIX OF THEM.

SO IN TERMS OF SEARCH TONIGHT, SERVICES, FRASER NICHOLS HAS PERSONAL EXPERIENCE WITH THESE GUYS.

WE WORKED WITH THEM ON A COUPLE OF PROJECTS, ONE WITH CITY OF WEBSTER, AND THEY PERFORMED JUST FINE.

LIKE THE CITY OF WEBSTER PROJECT IS A COLLEAGUE OF MINE WHO SITS NEXT TO ME IN THE OFFICE.

SO HE HAS A LOT OF EXPERIENCE WITH WITH THIS COMPANY.

SO OVERALL, SO WE, WE RECOMMENDED AWARDING THIS TO SUSTAINING SUPPORT SERVICES LLC.

HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE.

THANK YOU, SIR. QUESTIONS.

COMMENTS FROM THE COUNCIL.

JUST A LITTLE CLARIFICATION ON THE LAST TWO GROUPS OF NUMBERS.

DID DID YOU GIVE THEM THE PRICE THAT WAS GOING TO GO IN THOSE SLOTS? YES. SO HOW DID YOU COME UP WITH THOSE NUMBERS? SO ONE ONE WAS THE MAIN TREATMENT UNIT? YES. IS THE ARSENIC REMOVAL SYSTEM.

SO IN ORDER TO KIND OF MAKE THIS A COMPARISON OF APPLES TO APPLES, YOU KNOW, IF WE WE DESIGN THIS AROUND ONE PARTICULAR UNIT AND WE WANTED EVERYBODY TO PIT AGAINST THAT, AND IT DIDN'T WANT THE REP TO HAVE UNDUE INFLUENCE ON IT.

SO WE NEGOTIATED THAT PRICE WITH THE MANUFACTURER AND WITH THE WRAP UPFRONT SO THAT IT'S CONSISTENT AND CONSTANT FOR EVERYBODY.

AND WE PENCIL THAT IN IN THE PIT.

OKAY. AND THE SECOND ITEM IS BASICALLY WHAT WE SAID IS SO THIS TYPE OF TREATMENT PROCESS KIND OF CONSISTS OF MEDIA IN IT.

SO IT'S KIND OF LIKE A HOUSEHOLD FILTER, BUT MUCH LARGER.

SO AFTER A LITTLE WHILE, LIKE THE MEDIA IS GOING TO GET LIKE IT'S EXHAUSTED, SO YOU GOT TO DUMP IT AND PUT IT IN NEW MEDIA.

SO IT'S SAME THING HAPPENS HERE.

SO WHAT WE DID IS WE ESSENTIALLY NEGOTIATED WITH THE SUPPLIER THAT THEY WOULD COME AND DO THAT FIRST CHANGE OF MEDIA FOR THE CITY. AND WE NEGOTIATED THAT PRICE AND KIND OF THAT.

THANK YOU FOR THAT EXPLANATION BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, THREE OR FOUR YEARS DOWN THE LINE SO THAT THEY DON'T CHANGE MEDIA PRICES ON US WHEN THE MEDIA IS REMOVED, CAN YOU JUST GO TO REGULAR LANDFILL OR IS THERE SOMETHING SPECIAL THAT HAS TO BE DONE WITH? YEAH. SO IN THIS OPTION, THEY ARE GOING TO COME THEY'RE GOING TO TAKE THAT MEDIA OUT AND THEY'RE GOING TO HAUL IT AWAY AND PUT IN NEW MEDIA.

BUT IN TERMS OF JUST GENERAL, NO, YOU CAN'T DUMP IT IN A LANDFILL.

WHAT HAPPENS IS THEY ACTUALLY CAN MAKE THIS AN EXHAUSTED AND KIND OF REUSE IT.

SO YOU CAN YOU KNOW, YOU CAN SELL THIS MEDIA BACK TO THE COMPANY AND THEY HAVE WAYS OF REPLENISHING IT AND REUSING IT.

OKAY. BUT SOMETIMES, I MEAN, IF YOU'RE IN COLORADO, IT'S MUCH MORE CONVENIENT WHERE THESE PLACES ARE LOCATED IN ANGLETON, TEXAS, HOUSTON MIGHT NOT BE THE MOST CONVENIENT LOCATION FOR IT, BUT IF YOU HAVE SUFFICIENT ENOUGH MEDIA AMOUNT, YOU CAN DO THAT.

I HAVE A FUTURE ROAD TRIP COMING UP.

GO EXPLORE ANY MORE QUESTIONS, COMMENTS FOR.

GO AHEAD, SIR. I'M NOT REALLY A FAN OF THIS PROJECT.

I THINK I'VE BEEN PRETTY VOCAL IN FRONT OF IT.

MOST OF THIS TIME. I'M FRUSTRATED THAT WE'RE GOING TO SPEND ANOTHER $1.1 MILLION ON ANOTHER GROUNDWATER STORAGE TANK THAT WE SHOULD HAVE DONE THE DUE DILIGENCE FOR THE BEGINNING TO UNDERSTAND BEFORE WE SUNK HOW MANY MILLIONS INTO BUILDING THIS THING.

THERE'S NOTHING IN HERE THAT SAYS WHERE THE REST OF THE MONEY IS GOING TO COME FROM BECAUSE THE BUDGETED AMOUNT WAS 823,000.

CAN SOMEBODY PLEASE GIVE ME GUIDANCE ON THAT? YES, SIR. SO IT'S COMING FROM WITHIN THE BOND THAT WAS ALLOCATED FOR ALL THIS.

[00:30:02]

SO LIKE THE ARMY METERS CAME IN UNDER, AND SO THERE'S ENOUGH MONEY TO FUND THIS PROJECT.

SO IT'S ALL GOING TO COME OUT OF THAT THAT BOND.

CORRECT. AND THE MEDIA.

WE TALKED ONE TIME BEFORE THE MEDIA ONLY LAST DEPENDING ON THE USAGE OF THE PLANT.

SO IT COULD BE A YEAR AND A HALF.

IT COULD BE THREE OR FOUR YEARS DEPENDING ON HOW MUCH USAGE THIS GETS.

SO YOU'VE NEGOTIATED THE FIRST ONE IS GOING TO BE INCLUDED IN THE 1.1 MILLION, BUT THAT COULD BE BY THE SECOND BUDGET CYCLE, WE COULD BE REPLACING IT AGAIN.

AND HOW MUCH IS THAT AGAIN? SO THE MEDIA COSTS ABOUT 100,000 FOR REPLACEMENT.

RIGHT. SO LET ME ASK, WHAT'S THE RUSH? DO WE NEED THIS NOW? DO WE ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO HAVE THIS UP AND RUNNING NOW TO SUPPORT WHAT WE CURRENTLY HAVE? BUT YOU'RE LIMITING YOURSELF ON.

THE CITY CURRENTLY HAS WELL CAPACITY ENOUGH WATER FROM BUE FOR RIGHT NOW THE CONNECTIONS YOU HAVE RIGHT NOW IF YOU'RE LIMITING YOURSELF ANY KIND OF FUTURE DEVELOPMENT BECAUSE WE HAVE BEEN TALKING ABOUT THAT IN THE ACCOUNTS THAT I'VE BEEN GIVING YOU, HAS BEEN INCLUDING THAT BECAUSE IT IS IT IS SOMETHING THAT REALLY NEEDS TO.

AND FRIESS AND NICHOLS BELIEVES THAT THIS MEDIA IS GOING TO BE THE SOLUTION.

YES. I MEAN, OUT OF ALL THE TREATMENT OPTIONS YOU HAVE, THIS IS THE SIMPLEST STUDY PLUG AND PLAY OPTION WITH VERY MINIMAL OPERATOR INTERFERENCE REQUIRED.

AND WE'VE LOOKED AT GOING DEEPER, WE'VE LOOKED AT SHALLOW, WE'VE LOOKED AT EVERY ALTERNATIVE TO SEE IF THE ARSENIC COULD COME OUT SOMEWHERE ELSE.

YEAH. SO WE LOOKED AT PLUG IN, WE LOOKED AT KIND OF THROTTLING.

ALL OF THOSE ALTERNATIVES HAVE THEIR OWN DRAWBACKS.

THE MAIN DRAWBACK IS WE NEVER KNOW WHEN THE ARSENIC IS GOING TO START LEACHING AGAIN.

SO IT'S ALL IT'S A SO THAT IT COULD BE SIX MONTHS, IT COULD BE A YEAR OR YOU COULD BE LUCKY FOR TWO YEARS.

BUT ULTIMATELY, EVEN IF YOU LOCK OUT THE HIGHER CONCENTRATION OF ARSENIC LATER, IT'S GOING TO LEACH UP SLOWLY.

YOU KNOW, IT'S A TICKING TIME BOMB, BASICALLY.

SO IF YOU WANT TO SOLVE THIS ISSUE, YOU'VE GOT TO TREAT IT SO YOU CAN TREAT IT TWO WAYS.

ONE IS LIKE BASICALLY YOU CAN FILTER IT.

TWO IS YOU CAN USE PROPER TREATMENT, USE CHEMICALS TO REACT WITH ARSENIC AND REMOVE IT.

THE PROBLEM WITH THE CHEMICAL TREATMENT IS THERE'S A LOT OF RESIDUALS THAT YOU HAVE TO DISPOSE OF.

SO WITH THIS, THIS IS A PURE PHYSICAL FILTRATION.

SO ALL IT IS IS YOU'RE JUST FILTERING IT.

THERE'S NO CHEMICALS, THERE'S NO Q ISSUES.

SO IT'S THE SIMPLEST SOLUTION OUT THERE.

AND IF MY MEMORY SERVES ME CORRECTLY, THIS WAS SOMEWHAT FUNDED BY A GRANT AND DIDN'T HAVE TO HAVE IT ON THE LINE BY A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF TIME.

BUT WE HAVE TO PAY THAT GRANT BACK.

IS THAT IS THAT THIS PROJECT? DO WE REMEMBER THAT? THAT'S WHAT I SEEM TO HAVE BEEN TOLD.

YEAH. SO AND WE'RE TRYING TO GET AN EXTENSION OR THINGS THAT GOT US TO THIS POINT BECAUSE THIS HAS BEEN OFFLINE SINCE I'VE BEEN THE MAYOR.

SO WE HAVE NOT HAD THIS THING ONLINE.

WE SPENT THE MONEY TO BUILD IT AND IT'S BEEN OFFLINE THIS WHOLE TIME, NOT BEING USED AT ALL.

WE HAVE AN ASSET THAT'S SITTING THERE DOING NOTHING.

SO I SEE JOHN'S FRUSTRATION.

A DO WE SPEND IT NOW? BUT YAY, WE HAVE AN ASSET THAT WE'RE NOT USING.

AND IT WAS A ALL TIME MILLION DOLLAR PROJECT, IF I CAN RECALL.

SO I'M JUST TRYING TO FIGURE OUT, ARE WE ON A LOT OF TIMELINE TO REPEAL THE OBLIGATION OF THE GRANT, WHATEVER THAT MAY BE? THERE'S SO MUCH GOING ON WITH THIS WHALE JUST TRYING TO REFRESH, AND I'M JUST GLAD WE'RE TRYING TO MOVE IT FORWARD BECAUSE YOU'RE RIGHT, JOHN, YOU'VE TOLD US THIS IS OUR COUNT, PART OF OUR COUNT FOR FUTURE.

YOU KNOW WHAT? IF THAT DEVELOPER COMES WITH A 70 FOOT LOT, 84 LOT SUBDIVISION, 600 HOMES, CAN WE PROVIDE SERVICES OR COMMERCIAL SOMETHING COMMERCIAL POP UP OVER THERE? DO WE PROVIDE CAN WE PROVIDE SERVICE FOR WATER? I GET THE OTHER PART OF IT.

BUT YEAH, SO TIMING IS AN ISSUE WITH YOU, JOHN.

BUT IF THE STAFF TELLS US THERE'S THE AVENUE TO FUND IT THROUGH SOME OF THE SAVINGS ON OTHER PROJECTS, YOU KNOW, DO WE BITE THE BULLET NOW? MY THOUGHT IS WE ACTUALLY AGREE A LOT WITH WHAT THE MAYOR JUST EXPRESSED.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT ABOUT A GRANT OR TIMELINE, BUT.

THERE HAS BEEN A SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENT.

AND SO I UNDERSTAND JOHN'S PERSPECTIVE.

[00:35:03]

BUT IF WE HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO MOVE FORWARD, IT SOUNDS LIKE THE COST HAVE RISEN.

AND WE'VE ALSO ARE ABLE TO UTILIZE.

YOU KNOW, AND STAYING BUDGET.

SO I GUESS MY MY ONLY CONCERN IS I HOPE WE ARE JUDICIOUS WITH THIS WELL AND WHICH MAYBE WE CAN'T MAKE A PACT OR ANYTHING BUT YOU KNOW, THINK ABOUT HARD ABOUT FUTURE GROWTH.

AND THE IDEA MAY NOT BE THE PUMP IN MORE HOUSES BUT LET'S LET'S KEEP THE OPEN MIND FOR THE COMMERCIAL INDUSTRIAL RETAIL ALL THE THINGS THAT WE HOPE THAT ARE COMING WITH THE HOMES THAT ARE ALREADY ON THE GROUND AND THOSE THAT ARE STILL ALREADY PLANNED AND ARE BEEN RECENTLY PLOTTED.

SO NOW THAT'S ON US AS COUNCIL MEMBERS TO BE RESPONSIBLE BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, I GUESS PEOPLE WILL COME AFTER US, CAN DO WHATEVER THEY WISH.

BUT I JUST HOPE WE'RE KEEP THAT CONSIDERATION THAT THIS JUST CONCERNED THAT WE, YOU KNOW, BE SMART WITH OUR USE OF THIS ADDITIONAL WELL CAPACITY. WE'LL BE KICKING THIS CAN FOR FOUR, FIVE YEARS.

WE REALLY HAVE ANYTHING FROM THE LEFT SIDE OF THE TABLE.

I THINK THERE'S A LOT OF WOOD ISSUE THAT COULD US THAT WE'RE INHERITING WHICH HAVE GIVEN THE GLO THE MONEY BACK, PLUGGING THE WELL AND DISCARDING EVERYTHING THAT'S OUT THERE.

THIS IS THIS IS A ROUTE I THINK WE NEED TO TAKE.

WE CAN'T PUT THE WATER INTO THE SYSTEM UNLESS WE TAKE THE ARSENIC OUT.

RIGHT. MR..

GONGORA ANYTHING DOWN THERE? OKAY, COUNSEL, WHAT'S YOUR PLEASURE? I WOULD BE AWARDED THE CONTRACT AS SUCH TONIGHT.

SUPPORT SERVICES LLC FOR FREEDOM PARK GROUND WATER TREATMENT.

I HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCILMAN BOOTH.

DO I HAVE A SECOND? I HAVE A SECOND BY COUNCILMAN GONGORA.

ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SIGNIFY BY SAYING I.

I. ALL THOSE OPPOSED.

SAME SIGN. THAT IS A 4 TO 1 VOTE MOTION CARRIES.

THANK YOU, SIR. THANK YOU, JOHN.

THANK YOU, STAFF. MOVING RIGHT ALONG, REGULAR AGENDA ITEM NUMBER SIX DISCUSSION.

[6. The discussion and possible action on the Enterprise rental fleet program. (Part 1 of 2)]

POSSIBLE ACTION ON THE ENTERPRISE RENTAL FLEET AGREEMENT PROGRAM.

SORRY, PROGRAM. MISS COLLEEN FLORIDA'S YOUR COUNCIL.

TONIGHT, I'LL BRING BACK TO YOU THE ITEM ON ENTERPRISE FLEET LEASE VEHICLES, WHICH WAS BROUGHT BEFORE YOU IN MARCH.

THE CITY IS REQUESTING TO ADD 25 ADDITIONAL VEHICLES AND A BREAKDOWN BY DEPARTMENT IS IN YOUR AGENDA ITEM.

SUMMARY I'VE GONE BACK, AS YOU REQUESTED, TO EXAMINE THE NUMBER OF VEHICLES WE HAVE FOR AUCTION VERSUS THE NUMBER OF VEHICLES WE'RE REQUESTING.

WE DID IDENTIFY SOME ADDITIONAL VEHICLES THAT WE COULD AUCTION THAT ARE OLDER AND NOT IN USE.

AND SO WE WILL BE AUCTIONING ONE VEHICLE FOR EACH VEHICLE WE WOULD BE GETTING SO 25 OR 25.

I HAVE PHILIP STERLING FROM ENTERPRISE WITH US TONIGHT FOR ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE ABOUT THE PROGRAM.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU, MR. PHIL, FOR BEING HERE.

WE FINALLY GET TO SEE YOU. YOU'RE NOT SPEAKING THROUGH THE SPEAKER? YEAH, I GOT A FOUR IN A TWO YEAR OLD AT HOME, SO IT'S PLEASURE.

WE CAN ALL RELATE.

NO. OH, SORRY.

SORRY, MR. GONGORA.

I APOLOGIZE. MOST OF US CAN RELATE.

I CAN'T RELATE. ALL RIGHT, WELL, I HAVE AN 18 YEAR OLD WHO ACTS LIKE A FOUR YEAR OLD, SO.

BUT ANYWAY, GO AHEAD. THANK YOU AGAIN FOR HAVING ME OUT.

LAST TIME WE SPOKE, I GAVE A BRIEF RECAP ON THE PERFORMANCE TO DATE OF THE FLEET.

SO I WON'T BELABOR THE POINT THERE, BUT TO SUMMARIZE THE EQUITY POSITION THAT YOU HAVE IN THE FLEET THAT WILL BE ABLE TO PULL FUNDS OUT OF THROUGH AN EQUITY BUYOUT PUTS YOU IN A POSITION WHERE YOUR ENTIRE FLEET THROUGH THE PROGRAM RIGHT NOW IS BASICALLY COSTING 30,000.

SO IF WE DID ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TODAY, WHICH CERTAINLY ISN'T THE RECOMMENDATION, BUT THAT'S YOU COULD ESSENTIALLY BUDGET THAT IN 30,000 FOR THE ENTIRE FLEET OF VEHICLES. WHAT WE ARE DISCUSSING TODAY, AND I KNOW THAT YOU'VE GOT A PRETTY GAUDY SPREADSHEET IN FRONT OF YOU, BUT IS THE EXPANSION OF THE PROGRAM.

SO FOR SIMPLICITY'S SAKE, I DID GO AHEAD AND HIGHLIGHT IN GREEN ALL OF THE HALF TON PICKUPS WHICH WE CAN PUT ON THE SAME 12 MONTH MODEL THAT WE ARE ALREADY INCORPORATING IN THE FLEET TODAY.

AND AGAIN, JUST TO SUMMARIZE THE STRATEGY, THERE IS USING GOVERNMENT INCENTIVES THROUGH GENERAL MOTORS.

YOU'RE ABLE TO PURCHASE A VEHICLE, OPERATE IT FOR 12 MONTHS, AND THEN SELL IT FOR AT OR POTENTIALLY EVEN ABOVE WHAT YOU PURCHASED IT FOR.

[00:40:08]

SO THOSE VEHICLES IN GREEN ARE REALLY SELF SUSTAINING ASSETS.

THERE'S GOING TO BE A CASH OUTFLOW, CERTAINLY.

BUT IN THE NEXT 10 TO 14 MONTH PERIOD, ONCE THE NEW VEHICLES COME IN FOR THOSE, WE WOULD REPLACE THEM AND THEN THOSE FUNDS WOULD ESSENTIALLY REIMBURSE THE CITY.

SO ONCE AGAIN, FOR SIMPLICITY'S SAKE, I'VE HIGHLIGHTED THOSE IN GREEN.

IF THERE'S ANY QUESTIONS ON THAT, I THINK THE REALITY IS THAT THE PROGRAM IS ALREADY SORT OF PROVEN THAT THAT WORKS.

WHAT I THINK WARRANTS DISCUSSION TODAY IS EVERYTHING THAT'S NOT HIGHLIGHTED, HIGHLIGHTED IN GREEN.

AND IF YOU RECALL FROM OUR LAST MEETING THAT EXPANDS FROM THE POLICE DEPARTMENT, FIRE DEPARTMENT, PARKS, PUBLIC WORKS, REALLY ALL OF THE ALL OF THE DIVISIONS OF THE CITY HAVE SORT OF WISH LIST.

AND I'VE INCLUDED ON THAT FAR RIGHT COLUMN, IT WILL SHOW YOU WHAT THE COST TO THE CITY WILL BE ALL IN OVER THE 12 MONTH PERIOD.

AND WHAT THAT INCLUDES IS 12 MONTHS WORTH OF PAYMENTS AND IN THE CASE WHERE THERE IS SUBSTANTIAL AFTERMARKET.

SO FOR EXAMPLE, THE POLICE UNITS HAVE $25,000 WORTH OF AFTERMARKET.

THERE'S A DOWN PAYMENT FOR A PORTION OF THAT, AND THEY UTILIZE THE REMAINING EQUIPMENT WITHIN THE LEASE.

SO AGAIN, FOR SIMPLICITY, BECAUSE WE'VE GOT SO MANY VEHICLES THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT, THAT FAR RIGHT COLUMN WOULD SHOW YOU WHAT THE BUDGET AMOUNT FOR THOSE VEHICLES WOULD BE.

SO HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS AS WE GO THROUGH IT.

OKAY. THANK YOU.

I WILL SAY OUR DOCUMENTS KIND OF CHOPPED UP, SO IT'S KIND OF.

YEAH. SO I THINK WE'RE TRYING TO DECIPHER A LITTLE BIT OF THAT TRANSLATE.

SURE. IF WE DID NOTHING, YOU SAID OUR FLEET'S AT 30,000, SO I'M NOT SURE WHAT THE VISUAL OF YOURS LOOKS LIKE, BUT THE DOCUMENT THAT I SENT TO COLLEEN SHOWS AN ITEM IN THE MIDDLE THAT STATES CURRENT PAYMENTS OF 238 908.

THAT'S YOUR LEASE PAYMENTS OVER A 12 MONTH PERIOD.

THE EQUITY THAT WE WOULD EXPECT TO GET BACK IN THE FLEET TODAY IS 205,000.

SO JUST TAKING YOUR PAYMENTS LESS THE EQUITY THAT WE CAN PULL OUT, THAT'S WHERE THAT ROUGHLY 30,000 FIGURE COMES FROM.

SO THAT WOULD JUST CONTINUE.

YOU KNOW, THE NEXT YEAR WE DID NOTHING TODAY.

SO HOPEFULLY THAT'S CLEAR.

IT'S NOT FOR ME.

LET ME ASK YOU THIS.

THE IT SAYS IF YOU AUCTION THE 23 VEHICLES, IT PRODUCES AN ESTIMATED BUYOUT OF 205,000, AS YOU MENTIONED.

NO, SORRY, GOOD QUESTION.

THAT 205,000 IS FROM THE LEASED VEHICLES THAT YOU CURRENTLY HAVE.

NOWHERE IN THIS CALCULATION DID WE INCLUDE ANY OF THE VALUES FOR THE AUCTION VEHICLE.

SO THAT WOULD JUST BE IN ADDITION TO WHAT YOU'RE SEEING.

OKAY. SO IT'S ACTUALLY MORE MONEY COMING BACK TO THE CITY THIS YEAR.

MY APOLOGIES. BUT WHAT WE HAVE HERE IS NOT AS CLEAR AS WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO LAY OUT FOR US.

IT'S NOT HERE THAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

YEAH. I DIDN'T SEE.

MAYBE I MISSED. WE HAVE A SPREADSHEET, BUT IT'S KIND OF JUST SHOWS MORE LIKE VEHICLES MILEAGE.

YOU GOT COPIES OF THAT? OR CAN THEY PUT THAT THEY HAVE.

OH. FROM FROM THE COUNCIL.

OKAY. I'M TRYING TO JUST GET DOWN TO THE THE BASIC 30,000 FOOT VIEW.

HOW MUCH WE WOULD SELL, WHAT WOULD IT BE THE PROCEEDS FROM THAT THEN THE ADDED COST, BECAUSE THE AGENDA ITEM EVEN SAYS BUDGET AMOUNT IN BUDGET, IT DOESN'T HAVE A NUMBER THERE. SO I CAN'T COMPARE ANYTHING TO ANYTHING LIKE I'M BEING MRS. ROGERS RIGHT NOW.

YOU GOT IT? YEAH.

I MEAN, WITHOUT HAVING THE MATERIAL IN FRONT OF YOU, I CAN UNDERSTAND IT'S DIFFICULT TO.

TO SEE IF I COULD PROJECT MY SCREEN AND MAYBE SHARE IT THAT WAY.

THAT MIGHT BE AN OPTION, BUT I DON'T EMAIL THE MATERIALS OR I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING IN ADDITION TO WHAT YOU GUYS HAVE.

MAYBE WE CAN JUST PHONE THIS AND WE WANT TO MOVE TO ANOTHER AGENDA ITEM.

I CAN EMAIL IT TO AND HAVE IT PRINTED OFF AND WE CAN REVISIT THIS.

SURE. OKAY.

THANK YOU. DEFINITELY.

YOU'VE MADE ALL THAT TIME TO BE HERE.

WE SHOULD BE READY FOR YOU.

SO WE'LL GO AHEAD AND JUST KIND OF TABLE THAT ONE, NUMBER SIX, AND MOVE ON TO NUMBER SEVEN.

[7. Discussion and possible action on an agreement with i9 Sports Association to provide youth sports leagues, clinics, and camps and authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement upon legal review.]

DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION ON AGREEMENT WITH I9 SPORTS ASSOCIATION TO PROVIDE YOUTH SPORTS LEAGUES, CLINICS AND CAMPS AND AUTHORIZED CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE AGREEMENT UPON LEGAL REVIEW.

MISS MEGAN.

YES. GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL.

IN JANUARY OF 2022, PARKS AND RECREATION STAFF BEGAN DISCUSSION, BEGAN DISCUSSIONS WITH NINE SPORTS REPRESENTATIVES FOR YOUTH SPORTS LEAGUES,

[00:45:07]

CAMPS AND CLINICS, CLINIC OFFERINGS WITHIN THE CITY OF ANGLETON.

SPECIFICALLY, WHAT WE WERE LOOKING AT THIS FISCAL YEAR WAS YOUTH VOLLEYBALL AND YOUTH FOOTBALL.

THIS WAS ALSO A REQUEST FROM SOME OF OUR RESIDENTS AND RECOMMENDED BY SOME OF OUR COUNCIL MEMBERS.

PARKS AND RECREATION STAFF HAS ACTIVELY BEEN WORKING ON DEVELOPING YOUTH AND FLAG FOOTBALL PROGRAMS TO MEET THE EXPRESS NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY.

ADDITIONALLY, WE HAVE SOME OTHER OPPORTUNITIES TO EXPAND THESE OFFERINGS WITH THIS ORGANIZATION IF WE SO CHOOSE.

WE HAVE REACHED OUT TO OUR ASSOCIATIONS TO SEE IF THEY WANTED US TO SUPPLEMENT ANY OF THEIR OFFERINGS, LIKE YOUTH SOCCER AND THE OFF SEASON YOUTH BASEBALL AND YOUTH GIRLS SOFTBALL.

THEY HAVE EXPRESSED NO ADDITIONAL INTEREST AND SO WE'RE LEAVING IT TO THE ASSOCIATIONS TO ADDRESS THAT.

HOWEVER, SOME OTHER YOUTH PROGRAMS THAT WE COULD POTENTIALLY OFFER IN THE FUTURE ARE LACROSSE, CHEERLEADING AND BASKETBALL IF WE SO CHOOSE.

SO WE'RE TRYING NOT TO CONFLICT WITH ANY CURRENT OFFERINGS WITHIN THE CITY.

THAT WAS ONE OF MY QUESTIONS.

ON MARCH 22ND, 2022, STAFF SENT A DRAFT AGREEMENT TO THE CITY ATTORNEY FOR LEGAL REVIEW.

THE CITY ATTORNEY IS REFINING LANGUAGE TO BEST MEET OUR NEEDS AS A CITY.

I WILL ALSO ADD THAT THE CITY ATTORNEY DID RECOMMEND THAT THIS ITEM BE FOR DISCUSSION ONLY.

HOWEVER, STAFF WAS AUTHORIZED THIS EVENING TO ADD THIS ITEM FOR DISCUSSION POSSIBLE ACTION UPON LEGAL REVIEW BASED ON THE INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR AGREEMENT THAT IS ENCLOSED.

THAT THAT AGREEMENT THAT ISN'T CLOSE DOES STILL I WANT TO BE VERY CLEAR DOES STILL NEED REVISION.

SO WHEN TALKING WITH NINE SPORTS, THERE ARE SOME OTHER LOCAL AGENCIES THAT WE'VE REFERENCED.

THE ENCLOSED DOCUMENT IS REFERENCED FROM THE WOODLANDS.

YOU HAVE THE WOODLANDS TOWNSHIP, LAKE CITY, PEARLAND, PASADENA.

THERE'S MULTIPLE AGENCIES SIMILAR TO US.

THEY'RE OFFERING SIMILAR TYPES OF AGREEMENTS WITH NINE SPORTS.

AND SO THAT'S WHAT YOU HAVE ENCLOSED IN YOUR DOCUMENT.

THIS AGREEMENT WILL AUTHORIZE NINE SPORTS TO UTILIZE ANGLETON PARKS AND RECREATION FACILITIES, AND IN RETURN, THE CITY OF ANGLETON WILL RECEIVE A PERCENT OF ALL REGISTRATION FEES THAT ARE PAID TO I-9 SPORTS FOR PARTICIPATION IN THE PROGRAMS THAT HAVE BEEN APPROVED BY OUR DEPARTMENT.

SO WE WOULD BASICALLY WHAT THEY'VE DONE SO FAR IN OUR OUR DISCUSSIONS ARE THEY HAVE PROVIDED US WITH A PROPOSED SCHEDULE.

SO THEY OUTLINED THE THEIR SCHEDULE.

THEY'VE PROPOSED A FEE STRUCTURE THAT THEY THINK WILL MEET THEIR NEEDS TO OFFER THESE PROGRAMS BASED ON INFORMATION THAT WE'VE PROVIDED THEM ABOUT ANGLETON AND WHAT WE THINK OUR CITIZENS CAN AFFORD TO PARTICIPATE.

SO IT'S NOT JUST COMPLETELY OUTRAGEOUS.

WE WANT IT TO BE AFFORDABLE. THE WHOLE POINT IS FOR THEM TO PARTICIPATE IN THESE YOUTH SPORTS.

AND SO THE INITIAL PROPOSED PROPOSED RATE EXCUSE ME, OF REVENUES DUE TO THE CITY WOULD BE 25% AND THAT WOULD BE UP FOR NEGOTIATION AFTER THE CONTRACT HAS BEEN REFINED BY LEGAL.

WE WOULD PRESENT THAT BACK TO NINE SPORTS FOR APPROVAL.

BUT WE ARE PURSUING A 25% OF REGISTRATION FEES, WHICH IS PRETTY SIMILAR TO WHAT SOME OF THE OTHER CITIES THAT I HAD MENTIONED ARE ARE BRINGING IN ALSO, AND THAT IS FOR EXCHANGE OF USE OF THEIR FACILITIES.

I'M A LITTLE CONFUSED AS HOW THE DYNAMIC IS BETWEEN I NINE AND THE CITY.

SO WHEN SOMEBODY PAYS MONEY, WHO'S GETTING THE PROCEEDS? IS THE CITY GETTING IT? SO A9 SPORTS WOULD BE GETTING IT AND THEN THEY WOULD BE SENDING US BASICALLY IN THE AGREEMENT.

IT HAS INFORMATION REGARDING REPORTS AND ROSTERS, SO WE WOULD GET ALL OF THEIR ACCOUNTING SO THAT WE HAVE A CHECKS AND BALANCES OF WHAT IS ACTUALLY COMING IN TO I-9.

AND THEN THEY WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ISSUING US PAYMENT AND THEY'RE GOING TO BE USING OUR FACILITIES.

ARE THEY GOING TO HAVE TO KIND OF PARTNER WITH THE SCHOOL DISTRICT AS WELL OR SO RIGHT NOW WE ARE TALKING JUST OUR FACILITIES JUST STARTING AT THE ANGLETON RECREATION CENTER FOR YOUTH VOLLEYBALL, AND THEN WE'RE PROPOSING THE USE OF THE BATES FIELD AND BACK FORTH, THE SOCCER AND FOOTBALL AREA.

RIGHT. THAT'S.

OKAY. OKAY.

JUST WHEN I SAW THIS COME UP, I WAS PERUSING THROUGH FACEBOOK AND I DID NOTICE THAT ON DAVE CAMPBELL'S WEBSITE, THERE'S A LOT OF REFERENCE TO DIFFERENT SPORTS GOING ON IN TEXAS THAT USE THIS I9 SPORTS BECAUSE THEY SAID COURTESY OF OR IN CONJUNCTION WITH AND THAT WAS ON DAVE CAMPBELL'S IF YOU FOLLOW HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL, THE GURU OF HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL.

SO I JUST STARTED SEEING THIS LOGO POP UP AND I WAS LIKE, OH, LOOK, YOU THERE BECAUSE I HADN'T HEARD OF THIS RECOGNIZED ORGANIZATION.

THEY DO A LOT OF WORK HERE IN TEXAS.

SO A LOT OF AGENCIES, PARKS AND RECREATION INDUSTRIES UTILIZE I-9 JUST FOR FOLKS THAT, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE A SMALL RICK DIVISION.

SO INSTITUTING SEVERAL DIFFERENT YOUTH LEAGUES LIKE THIS CAN BE DIFFICULT WITH LIMITED STAFF.

[00:50:04]

SO THIS IS JUST AN ALTERNATIVE WAY OF DOING THAT.

MUCH LIKE MANY OF OUR CONTRACT PROGRAMS, WHEN WE BRING IN THINGS LIKE A THEATER CAMP OR AN ART CAMP OR THINGS LIKE THAT, THAT'S HOW WE GENERATE SOME ADDITIONAL REVENUE.

BUT WE'RE NOT UTILIZING STAFF, ESPECIALLY IF WE DON'T HAVE THE EXPERTIZE TO PROVIDE THOSE KINDS OF RESOURCES OR SERVICES.

AWESOME. THANK YOU.

I DON'T KNOW IF I WANT TO SAY DAVE CAMPBELL IS THE KING OF TEXAS HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL.

BUT NO, HIS GROUP REPORTS ON THE TEAM.

YEAH, I'M JUST.

I'M FINE WITH YOU. CALL HIMSELF THE GURU.

I LOVE IT, BUT NO.

YEAH. I'VE BOUGHT DAVE CAMPBELL'S TEXAS HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL MAGAZINE SINCE I WAS PROBABLY EIGHT.

YES, SIR. SO THAT'S ONLY 37 YEARS.

BUT SO NO, FIRST OF ALL, I THANK YOU FOR DOING THIS.

I WAS BEEN VERY INTERESTED IN THIS PROJECT FOR A WHILE.

I FEEL LIKE IF YOU'RE FAMILIAR WITH ANGLETON AND THE OPPORTUNITIES, OBVIOUSLY TEXAS HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL IS BIG IN ANGLETON, BUT THIS OBVIOUSLY PUTS OUR OPPORTUNITY TO PLAY IN A NON TACKLE LEAGUE WHEN IT ALSO, I THINK.

TO GET INTO THE SPORTS OF IT.

BUT, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF PASSING AND THE FOOTBALL HAS KIND OF EVOLVED, IF YOU WILL.

SO I THINK IT WOULD BE A GOOD STARTER PROGRAM FOR FOR MANY FUTURE ATHLETES ESPECIALLY INTEREST STOOD IN THE GIRLS VOLLEYBALL.

THIS IS A SORELY LACKING HOLE IN OUR ENTIRE SPORTS ECOLOGY, IF YOU WILL, FOR YOUTH ATHLETICS, ESPECIALLY FOR FEMALES TO HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY FOR THEM TO PLAY A SPORT LIKE VOLLEYBALL.

IT'S JUST JUST NOT THERE.

AND THEY WOULD HAVE TO GO ELSEWHERE TO PLAY IN A CITY OF OUR SIZE SHOULD AT LEAST PROVIDE THAT OPPORTUNITY.

I MEAN, OBVIOUSLY, WE KNOW WE'RE TAKING A CHANCE HERE TO HOPEFULLY MAKE IT HAPPEN.

BUT AS SOMEONE WAS ONE OF THE COUNCIL MEMBERS WHO EXPRESSED A DESIRE FOR YOU ALL TO LOOK INTO THIS, I'M GRATEFUL FOR YOU ALL TO DO THIS BEFORE MAKING THE WISE CHOICE TO MOVE TO SETTLED IN ANGLETON.

I DID LIVE IN PEARLAND AND THAT WAS MORE THAN EIGHT YEARS AGO AND I NINE WAS UP AND DEVELOPED IN PEARLAND AT LEAST PROBABLY A DECADE AGO.

SO IT JUST KIND OF I'M SAYING THAT AS AN ILLUSTRATION OF IT STICKING AROUND AND STILL DEVELOPING.

AND SO IT'S A GOOD PRODUCT.

I'M SURE PEOPLE WILL HAVE THEIR DEBATES AND CONCERNS.

THAT'S JUST NATURAL HOW THINGS SHOULD BE DONE.

THAT'S BUT I THINK WE'RE GOING THE RIGHT WAY.

AND I APPRECIATE YOU ALL LOOKING TO PROVIDE THE SERVICE TO ANGLETON, BUT ESPECIALLY ARE YOUNG FEMALES.

AND I WILL JUST ADD A LITTLE BIT TO THAT TOO SOMEHOW OR HAVE GOTTEN OUT THAT WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON THIS AND MAYBE IT'S BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE LISTENING TO OUR PARKS AND RECREATION BOARD MEETINGS. WE HAVE MENTIONED DISCUSSIONS, BUT WE HAVE ALREADY RECEIVED EMAILS WITH RESPECT TO YOUTH VOLLEYBALL AND I KNOW THERE HAS BEEN SOME TALK ABOUT WE CURRENTLY HAVE LOCAL FLAG FOOTBALL TEAMS THAT ARE GOING TO PEARLAND TO PLAY IN THESE LEAGUES.

AND SO THAT'S JUST EVIDENT AND SPEAKS TO THE NEED HERE IN OUR COMMUNITY.

RIGHT. AND HOPEFULLY THAT YOU CAN EVEN HAVE A MORE BASE LEVEL WHERE YOU CAN PLAY WITH ANGLETON TEAMS, BUT OTHER TEAMS THAT ARE OUT, THE COMMUNITIES OR LOCAL COUNTY, MAYBE EVEN, AND THEN MAYBE INSTEAD OF HAVING TRAVELED APPARENTLY IN FOR EVERY GAME, MAYBE SOME GAMES GET TO BE HOME GAMES AND THEY DON'T HAVE TO GO AS FAR. THANK YOU, MR. TRAVIS. ANYBODY HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? MR. MAYOR, I MOVE. WE AUTHORIZED THE SAME MANAGER TO EXECUTE AN AGREEMENT WITH I9 SPORTS FOR YOUTH SPORTS PROGRAMS AND ANGLETON PARKS AND RECREATION FACILITIES AND PARKS UPON LEGAL REVIEW MOTION BY MAYOR PRO TEM WRIGHT DO I HAVE A SECOND, SECOND, SECOND BY COUNCILMAN.

ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION HERE? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SIGNIFY BY SAYING.

ALL THOSE OPPOSED. SAME SIGN THAT MOTION CARRIES.

THANK YOU, MISS MEGAN. WE'RE GOING TO GO BACK TO ITEM NUMBER SIX FOR THE ENTERPRISE RENTAL FLEET PROGRAM.

[6. The discussion and possible action on the Enterprise rental fleet program. (Part 2 of 2)]

OH, THANK YOU, MISS HOLLY.

THANK YOU. AND IT'S GOT COLOR.

YAY! I'M A PICTURE PERSON, LIKE.

JUST GIVE US A MOMENT TO PERUSE.

THERE'S A LOT ON THIS, BUT AS YOU'RE LOOKING AT IT, AS I MENTIONED, THE ONES HIGHLIGHTED IN GREEN WOULD BE SELF SUSTAINING VEHICLES.

WHAT WOULD WE BE GOING TO?

[00:55:02]

OUR ANNUAL OR MONTHLY LEASE PAYMENT RIGHT NOW FOR THE VEHICLES WE HAVE VERSUS WHAT WE'LL BE GOING TO.

SO ANNUALIZED YOUR MONTHLY PAYMENTS ARE THAT'S CENTER COLUMN IT SAYS CURRENT PAYMENTS AT THE BOTTOM SO 238908 IS YOUR ANNUALIZED PAYMENTS THAT'S CURRENTLY OKAY.

SO JUST BENEATH THAT IS AGAIN THE EQUITY THAT'S CURRENTLY IN THE FLEET THAT WE CAN PULL OUT, CUT YOU A CHECK FOR AND IT'LL COMPLETELY OFFSET.

AND THE REASON THIS BRIEF HISTORY OF WHY WE'RE DOING THAT IS WE HAD ORIGINALLY PLACED ORDERS FOR THE VEHICLES THAT YOU CURRENTLY HAVE IN THE FLEET.

AND AS EVERYONE HAS SEEN IN THE NEWS, THEY WEREN'T ABLE TO BUILD THOSE.

SO IN ORDER TO MAKE THE CITY WHOLE FINANCIALLY, ENTERPRISE WILL KIND OF CHECK FOR THE EQUITY IN THOSE VEHICLES SO THAT WE CAN CONTINUE THE PROGRAM AS PLANNED.

SO 238 AGAIN ARE THE PAYMENTS.

205 IS A ROUGH ESTIMATE OF WHAT THAT EQUITY WOULD BE.

SO AGAIN, DID NOTHING.

THAT'S KIND OF WHERE WE GET THAT 30,000 FIGURE FROM.

IF YOU APPROVED EVERY SINGLE VEHICLE ON THIS SPREADSHEET, THE UPDATED BUDGET, FACTORING IN THE EQUITY THAT WE JUST SPOKE ABOUT ON THE LEASE VEHICLES, BUT COMPLETELY DISREGARDING ANY OF THE 23 OR SO THAT WOULD BE TERMED IN YOUR TOTAL BUDGET WOULD BE THAT 407.

SO YOU WOULD GO FROM BASICALLY 30,000 TO THAT 407.

338. AGAIN, ALL OF THESE VEHICLES AND THE REASON THAT THERE IS A SUBSTANTIAL INCREASE IS BECAUSE WE'RE LOOKING AT GREEN BODIES, DUMPED BODIES, POLICE VEHICLES THAT JUST DON'T FIT THE SAME MODEL AS THE SIMPLE WORK TRUCK THAT'S GOING FOR 12 MONTHS.

SO HOW CAN WE SUPPORT THAT BUDGET WISE? I MEAN, THAT'S A BIG CHANGE FROM THE 2.38 TO THE 405.

SO IT'S WITHIN THE THE MODEL OF OUR CURRENT BUDGET.

SO FACTORING IN THE THE GREEN VEHICLES, SO THERE'S TEN TOTAL THAT WOULD BE THERE'S EQUITY TO BE HAD AT THE END OF THOSE LEASES.

SO YOU WOULD EXPERIENCE KNOW.

CALL IT AN ADDITIONAL 100,000 OR SO FROM THOSE VEHICLES TO COME BACK TO THE CITY.

THAT WOULD LOWER IT.

BUT I DON'T WANT TO DOUBLE DIP ON EQUITY FROM THE UP FRONT VEHICLES.

AND THESE I WANT TO PRESENT A REALISTIC BUDGET PERSPECTIVE, BUT.

CORRECT, YES, YOU WILL. WE WILL CONTINUE TO LEASE THESE VEHICLES, TO RESELL THESE VEHICLES INTO THE FUTURE SO THAT 205 BECOMES 305 BECOMES A SUBSTANTIALLY LARGER NUMBER.

BUT THE REALITY IS THERE IS GOING TO BE AN INCREASE.

AND SO I THINK. THE DISCUSSION TODAY IS WHAT OF THESE VEHICLES DOES THE CITY HAVE AN IMMEDIATE NEED FOR? IF THEY'RE ALL NOW, YOU KNOW WHAT EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT AND IF THERE'S A VEHICLE THAT CAN WAIT FOR A YEAR OR TWO.

BUT I CAN I CAN SPEAK TO THE REALITIES THAT I'VE TRIED TO CONDUCT SEARCHES FROM DEALERSHIP STOCK FOR JUST ABOUT ALL OF THESE, EXCEPT MAYBE ONE OF THE CRANE BODIES. AND THE REALITY IS IT'S JUST VERY, VERY DIFFICULT TO FIND ANYTHING.

AND SO IF YOU'RE IF YOU'RE NOT MAKING THE DECISION TO REPLACE IT TODAY, THEN YOU'RE PUTTING YOURSELF IN A POSITION WHERE YOU'RE REPLACING AN ENGINE ON A TRUCK.

IT'S GOT 150,000 MILES ON IT OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

SO IS IT DUE TO THE MARKET JUST BECAUSE WE'RE GETTING SUCH RESALE ON? YES. SO YOU WOULD EXPECT IN THE FUTURE TO HAVE A LOWER RETURN? CERTAINLY YOU'RE GOING TO BE EXPERIENCING.

A PROFIT ON YOUR VEHICLES? ROUGHLY 4 TO 5000 VEHICLES.

4 TO 5000 PER VEHICLE.

THAT'S CERTAINLY NOT SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN DEPEND ON IN PERPETUITY.

BUT THE MODEL IS SUCH THAT WE SET THIS UP SO THAT IT'S A COST NEUTRAL PROGRAM.

THE 205 THAT WE'RE PULLING OUT IS JUST A PORTION OF THE EQUITY IN THOSE VEHICLES, BECAUSE WE DON'T WANT TO PUT YOU IN A SITUATION WHERE YOU BECOME UPSIDE DOWN ON THE VEHICLE WHERE YOU HAD A GREAT EQUITY POSITION.

SO IT WOULD BE POSSIBLE FOR US TO CUT YOU A CHECK FOR PROBABLY 300,000 ON THESE VEHICLES, BUT WE WANT TO APPROACH IT THE RIGHT WAY.

AND SO THE MODEL IS A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT ON SOME OF THESE SPECIALTY VEHICLES BECAUSE THEY MAY NOT BE HIGH MILEAGE LIKE A POLICE VEHICLE OR RIG OR PICKUP TRUCK.

SO A DUMP TRUCK WE MAY KEEP FOR.

FOUR YEARS VERSUS TWO OR ONE OR SOMETHING ELSE.

AND PART OF THIS IS THAT EACH ONE OF THESE A DUMP TRUCK IS GOING TO COST YOU 70, $80,000.

THROUGH THIS STRUCTURE, WE'RE ABLE TO HAVE YOU PAY DOWN PAYMENT ON A PORTION OF IT AND THEN CAPITALIZE THE REST OF THAT AND SPREAD IT OUT OVER FOUR OR FIVE YEARS RATHER THAN TRYING TO COME UP WITH.

BECAUSE REALITY IS $400,000 WOULD PAY FOR THREE OR FOUR OF THESE SPECIALTY VEHICLES.

[01:00:04]

AND WE'RE TALKING ABOUT REPLACING AN ADDITIONAL 23 ON TOP OF THE 31 THAT YOU ALREADY HAVE.

SO AGAIN, YOU'RE OPERATING A FLEET OF OVER 50 VEHICLES FOR 400,000.

AND SO HELP ME OUT AGAIN, I GUESS REMIND ME.

SO WE'RE GOING TO PLACE AN ORDER, BUT WE MAY NOT SEE SOME OF THESE VEHICLES FOR SIX MONTHS A YEAR.

SO WE'RE NOT GOING TO PAY ON THE VEHICLES TILL WE GET THEM.

SO UNFORTUNATE REALITY IN PARTICULAR WITH THE POLICE VEHICLES IS THAT YOU LIKELY WON'T SEE THOSE FOR.

AT LEAST 12 TO 14 MONTHS FROM TODAY.

AND IT'S AN ANECDOTE, BUT I DID JUST LAST MONTH HAVE A CONVERSATION WITH A DEALERSHIP THAT HAD A TAHOE ON THE GROUND.

BUT BECAUSE OF THE BACKLOG FOR UP FITTING, IT WAS A TEN MONTH LEAD TIME ON A TRUCK ON A TAHOE THAT'S THERE.

SO THROUGH THE PROCESS OF FACTORY ORDERING, WE DO HAVE WEEKLY CONVERSATIONS WITH OUR PARTNERS AT THE MANUFACTURERS, AND THEY DO SEE IMPROVEMENTS.

WE DO ANTICIPATE IT GETTING BETTER, BUT IT'S NOT GOING TO BE RESOLVED IN 2022.

YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE THE SAME ISSUE ALL YEAR OF TRYING TO SOURCE VEHICLES.

OKAY. MORE QUESTIONS.

COMMENTS. SO FAR IT'S WORKED, BUT I THINK IT'S JUST BECAUSE OF THE MARKET CONDITIONS.

AND EVENTUALLY WE'RE GOING TO END UP HAVING TO.

SEE AN INCREASE.

LET ME ASK YOU ABOUT THESE VEHICLES THAT WE'RE GOING FOR.

YEAH, WE HAD QUITE THE DISCUSSION, I THINK, THE LAST TIME ON THIS.

CORRECT. WE TALK ABOUT ADDING 25 MORE VEHICLES THROUGH THE ENTERPRISE PROGRAM.

BEFORE WE WENT INTO THE ENTERPRISE PROGRAM, HOW MANY VEHICLES TOTAL DID WE HAVE IN OUR FLEET VERSUS NOW? SEE? MIGHT KNOW. I MEAN, YEAH, I WANT TO TAKE THOSE OUT OF THE CONSIDERATION. AND HOW MUCH ARE WE HOW MANY ARE WE GOING TO.

SO TAKE OUT THE SPECIALTIES BACKING THOSE OUT, IT WOULD BE ROUGHLY 48.

OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD. WOULD THERE BE ANYTHING LEFT THAT WE OWN? NOT THAT I HAVE A RECORD OF.

THERE MAY BE SOME VEHICLES THAT THAT I DON'T HAVE VISIBILITY TO.

BUT IF WE'RE GOING TO BE REPLACING ALL OF THESE VEHICLES WITH EXISTING VEHICLES, AND THAT WOULD EXHAUST EVERYTHING THAT WE HAVE A RECORD OF.

SO BASICALLY THIS IS WHERE WE WOULD TURN THE ENTIRE FLEET OVER TO ENTERPRISE AND INCREASE IT BY THREE.

THAT SOUNDS ABOUT RIGHT.

BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHICH VEHICLES THEY'VE OPTED TO TO AUCTION.

THEY'VE TOLD ME I HAVE LIKE THREE PICKUPS OR I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S PR, I DON'T KNOW.

BUT I WOULD SAY WE WOULD OWN MAYBE A HANDFUL.

GO AHEAD. YOU GET SOME MORE QUESTIONS.

SO, I MEAN, THERE'S A COUPLE OF THINGS WE MADE.

LIKE JOHN SAID, THERE MAY BE SOME REALIZED EXPENSES LATER ON AS THE MARKET GETS MORE BALANCED TO WEAR OR CORRECTS OR WHATEVER YOU WANT TO SAY.

BUT RIGHT NOW, IT MIGHT BE A GOOD TIME TO STRIKE BECAUSE THE MALLET, THE MARKET IS IN OUR FAVOR PRESENTLY.

THAT'S JUST ONE IDEA.

THE OTHER IDEA I HAVE IS THAT.

YOU COULD.

I THINK FOR US TO.

WORK THIS PROGRAM. WE WE HAVE TO ALMOST GO ALL IN AND GIVE IT SOME TIME TO YEAH, WE'VE GOT TO LET IT ESTABLISH ITSELF AND TO TO REALLY SEE.

THE RETURNS WERE HOPING.

I MEAN, EVERYTHING ON PAPER LOOKS GOOD TO ME, BUT THAT'S JUST KIND OF WHERE I SIT.

SO I'M WILLING TO TAKE THAT CHANCE.

I MEAN. THE PRESENTATION.

I APPRECIATE YOUR PRESENTATION.

WE'VE OBVIOUSLY TALKED QUITE A BIT WITH CHRIS ABOUT THIS IN THE PAST CITY.

I JUST FEEL LIKE I HAVE TRUST THAT IN THERE WHAT I'M HEARING AND OBVIOUSLY WE'RE LOOKING AT.

YOU KNOW, THE SPREADSHEETS AND THE FIGURES.

I'M JUST WILLING TO GO ALL IN, I GUESS, IS MY MY VERNACULAR.

I MEAN, SOMEBODY ELSE MAY USE A DIFFERENT PHRASE, BUT.

LET'S GO AHEAD AND ESTABLISH IT.

YES, I'LL GO AHEAD AND MAKE A MOTION TO UNLESS THERE'S ANY MORE FURTHER DISCUSSION.

I DON'T WANT TO. I JUST HAD ONE QUESTION.

HOW LONG? WHEN DO WE RECEIVE THE FIRST CAR? SO WHEN'S OUR ANNIVERSARY, SO TO SPEAK? WHEN'S OUR ONE YEAR BIRTHDAY? RECEIVED OUR FIRST VEHICLE IN FEBRUARY, WITH THE ADDITION OF A BUS FOR THE REC CENTER THIS PAST FEBRUARY.

[01:05:07]

OH. OH, GOSH.

OKAY. YEAH, I'VE SLEPT SINCE THEN.

I APOLOGIZE. OKAY, SO WE'VE ALREADY HAD A ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY, SO.

OKAY. THAT'S ALL I HAD.

THANK YOU. CECIL, DO YOU HAVE SOMETHING? NO, IT'S ALL BEEN SAID.

ALL IN LIKE TEXAS HOLD'EM.

SO I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO.

THE CONTINUATION OF THE ENTERPRISE PROGRAM WITH THE ADDITION OF WAS AT 23 OR 25.

THAT'S 25 TO 5.

ALSO A MOTION BY COUNCILMAN TOWNSEND, SECONDED BY COUNCILMAN BOOTH.

ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? HARRY NOT ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SIGNIFY BY SAYING I.

I. ALL THOSE OPPOSED.

SAME SIGN MOTION CARRIES.

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH. THANK YOU, MISS COLLEEN.

THANK YOU, CHRIS. AND STAFF.

ALL RIGHT. MOVING RIGHT ALONG TO ITEM NUMBER EIGHT.
