IT'S CURRENTLY ZONED FOR MULTIFAMILY, IT'S UNDEVELOPED, AND THE APPLICANT PLANS TO DOWN ZONE THE PROPERTY TO BE FOR SINGLE FAMILY, DETACHED, SINGLE FAMILY HOMES INSTEAD OF A MULTIFAMILY DEVELOPMENT. THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES ARE A MIXTURE OF SINGLE FAMILY, MULTIFAMILY AND COMMERCIAL. THIS REQUEST IS CONSISTENT WITH THE FUTURE LAND USE GUIDE, AS THE AREA IS A MIXED USE CENTER AND THIS WILL HELP FACILITATE THAT DEVELOPMENT IN AT THAT INTERSECTION.

THIS REQUEST IS TO ALLOW FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF TWO DETACHED SINGLE FAMILY HOMES ON SOUTH ROSS AVENUE. THIS PROPERTY IS ALSO LOCATED WITHIN THE NORTH END PLANNING AREA. AS YOU SEE HERE, THE. THESE PROPERTIES ARE SMALLER LOTS AND SO THE EXISTING MULTIFAMILY FAMILY ZONING WILL NOT ALLOW FOR THEM TO MEET ALL THE DIMENSIONAL REQUIREMENTS AND THEREFORE THEY ARE KIND OF CLEANING UP THE ZONING TO BE ABLE TO FINALLY DEVELOP THE PROPERTIES WITH, WITH HOMES, SURROUNDING PROPERTIES ARE MULTIFAMILY, ARE ZONED FOR MULTIFAMILY, BUT ARE LARGELY SINGLE FAMILY USED. OR THERE'S A CHURCH TO THE WEST. THIS REQUEST WITH THE AMEND THE FUTURE LAND USE GUIDE TO SINGLE FAMILY AND SINGLE FAMILY ATTACHED. THEY ARE DEVELOPING DETACHED SINGLE FAMILY HOMES ON THESE LOTS.

WIND. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE. OPPOSED? MOTION CARRIES THREE.

THIS IS A REQUEST FOR A ZONE CHANGE FROM SINGLE FAMILY AND COMMERCIAL DISTRICTS TO R-2 TWO FAMILY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT. IN ORDER TO DEVELOP DUPLEXES. SEVEN DUPLEXES ON THIS PROPERTY HERE.

THIS IS ON WEST HOUSTON, JUST WEST OF THE INTERSECTION WITH GLENWOOD BOULEVARD. AS YOU SEE HERE, THE PROPERTY IS DOES HAVE COMMERCIAL FRONTAGE ON WEST FRONT STREET, WHICH IS ALL UNDEVELOPED AT THIS POINT. AND THEY DO PLAN TO. SUBDIVIDE THIS PROPERTY TO DEVELOP DUPLEXES ON THIS ON THIS PROPERTY HERE SURROUNDING SURROUNDING ZONINGS ARE FOR TWO FAMILY RESIDENTIAL AS WELL. THERE ARE SOME SINGLE FAMILY AND THEN SOME COMMERCIAL ZONING WITHIN THAT AREA. THERE'S A CHURCH ACROSS THE STREET, ACROSS HOUSTON STREET AND SINGLE FAMILY HOMES TO THE EAST. THOSE PROPERTIES TO THE EAST, ALTHOUGH ARE ALSO ZONED OUR TEAM, WHICH IS WHAT THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING. THIS ZONE CHANGE WOULD AMEND THE FUTURE LAND USE GUIDE TO SINGLE FAMILY ATTACHED AND DETACHED, SINCE THEY WILL BE DEVELOPED WITH DUPLEXES. YOU SEE HERE THE PROPERTIES, THE EXCEPTION OF THE BUILDING ON THE SOUTHWEST, IT IS CURRENTLY UNDEVELOPED AND THE OF THE NOTICE NOTICES THAT WERE SENT OUT, ONE WAS RETURNED IN OPPOSITION WITH THE PROTEST CALCULATION OF 1.28%. NO OTHER NOTICES WERE RETURNED IN OPPOSITION OR IN FAVOR OF THE REQUEST TO LEAVE THE CONCERN. THERE WAS NO CONCERN LISTED IN THE IN THE OPPOSITION LETTER AND THE PLANNING COMMISSION. BY A UNANIMOUS VOTE, RECOMMENDED APPROVAL. SO, KYLE, WERE THESE DUPLEXES BE OWNED BY THE CHURCH? I'M NOT SURE I'M. THE PLAN IS TO SUBDIVIDE THE PROPERTY INTO INDIVIDUAL LOT, SO I'M NOT SURE IF THEY PLAN TO KEEP THE LOTS OR NOT. BUT THE APPLICANT IS HERE AND THEY CAN SPEAK TO THAT, MR. RYDER, CAN YOU COME UP HERE? MY NAME IS JESSE RYDER. HELLO, MR. RYDER. OKAY, SO WHEN Y'ALL DO THE WHEN THE WHEN YOU PERMIT OR ARE THE DUPLEXES ARE BUILT, ARE THEY ACTUALLY OWNED BY THE CHURCH OR WILL Y'ALL BE SELLING THE DUPLEXES TO SOMEBODY ELSE? YOU SAID, ARE WE OWNED BY THE CHURCH? NO, WE'RE THE DUPLEXES. BE OWNED BY THE CHURCH. YEAH, THE DUPLEX WILL BE OWNED BY THE CHURCH. WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO IS REVITALIZE WEST TYLER. SO, YOU KNOW, WE GOT ALMOST TWO ACRES OF LAND THAT'S JUST WOODED. AND SO WE THOUGHT WE WOULD DO SOME SOME DUPLEX, AND THAT WOULD BE OWNED BY THE CHURCH. SO QUESTION FOR YOU, DEBORAH. SO WHEN DUPLEXES ARE OWNED BY A CHURCH, DOES THAT MAKE THEM EXEMPT FROM PAYING

[00:15:02]

PROPERTY TAX. I'M NOT I'M NOT CERTAIN ABOUT THAT. I BELIEVE SO, BUT I'M NOT SINCE THE LAND WOULD BE OWNED BY THE CHURCH, WHICH IS A TAX EXEMPT ORGANIZATION. I WOULD THINK SO.

YES. I THINK, YOU KNOW, MY ONLY FEAR IS AND I LIKE WHAT YOU'RE DOING. MY FEAR IS, IS IF YOU START HAVING CHURCHES STARTING TO BUILD DUPLEXES ON CHURCH PROPERTY, AND BECAUSE THEY'RE NONPROFITS, ALL OF A SUDDEN THEY ARE NOT TAXABLE, I GUESS, TO SCHOOL, TO COUNTY TO CITY. THEN, I MEAN, THAT COULD BE SOMETHING THAT, THAT I DON'T KNOW, IT COULD BE IT COULD GET OUT OF HAND QUICK. I JUST THAT'S JUST ME THINKING THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I KNOW THAT WE'VE DONE THIS. KYLE, HAVE YOU RESEARCHED THIS TO SEE IF THERE'S OTHER CHURCHES IN TYLER TO OWN LAND THAT HAVE PROPERTIES ON THEM? I'M SURE THERE IS, YES. OKAY. I'M NOT I'M NOT FAMILIAR OFFHAND WITH ANY SUBDIVISIONS OR RESIDENTIAL LOTS OWNED BY CHURCHES, BUT BUT THE PROPERTY RIGHT NOW IS ZONED OWNED BY THE CHURCH, RIGHT? YEAH. SO THE ONES YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT, ARE THEY EXEMPT FROM PAYING ANY KIND OF TAX THAT'S OWNED BY THE CHURCH, THE ONES YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT? I HAVE NOT LOOKED INTO IT, BUT WE CAN WE CAN LOOK INTO THAT. THAT'S A QUICK QUESTION. WHAT WOULD TRANSITION HOMES FROM PATH? WOULD THAT BE SOMETHING SIMILAR. THAT PATH STILL OWNS THAT. SOMEONE OCCUPIES IT THAT IS PAYING THE NOTE THROUGH PATH I DON'T KNOW. YEAH. PATH HABITAT. HOLD ON. APPRAISAL DISTRICT QUESTION I REALLY DON'T KNOW. THE NONPROFITS YOU KNOW HAVE DIFFERENT RULES AS WELL AND THEY MAY OR MAY NOT PAY. I DO KNOW THAT THERE ARE A GOOD NUMBER OF CHURCHES THAT DO OWN RESIDENTIAL LOTS AND UNITS. I KNOW MY JERK. AND THE PROPERTIES, IF THEY ARE CURRENTLY OWNED BY THE CHURCH, THEY'RE CURRENTLY NOT PAYING TAXES. THE SEVEN WAS SUPPOSED TO BE FOR SALE, RIGHT? DO WHAT IS A SENIOR LIVING 50,000 UP? HEATHER, YOU GOT A YES. SO OKAY. UPON A SEARCH, IT DOES APPEAR THAT CHURCH OWNED RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY IS EXEMPT, BUT IT DEPENDS ON HOW THE PROPERTY IS BEING USED. SO IF IT'S BEING IF IT MAY BE EXEMPT ONLY IF IT'S USED FOR RELIGIOUS WORSHIP OR RELATED ACTIVITIES. SO IF IT'S RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY AND IT'S DIRECTLY FOR RELIGIOUS PURPOSES SUCH AS HOUSING, A MINISTER OR CLERGY WHOSE ROLE IS DIRECTLY TIED TO THE CHURCH, IT COULD QUALIFY FOR EXEMPTION. BUT IF IT'S RENTED OUT OR USED FOR GENERAL HOUSING, IT IS GENERALLY TAXABLE. OKAY, GREAT. GOOD GOOD GOOD ANSWER. THANK YOU. NOW WE KNOW. THANK YOU. WE CAN CONFIRM ALL THAT FOR THE COUNCIL. GIVE YOU SOME INFORMATION OKAY. YOU FEEL GOOD ABOUT THAT HEATHER. OH YES I HAVE A REFERENCE. I'LL SEND IT TO DEBORAH OKAY. ALL RIGHT. ANY MORE QUESTIONS? ANY QUESTIONS? ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?

FOR ANOTHER CHURCH. YES. THIS IS A REQUEST TO CHANGE THE ZONING FROM R-1, A SINGLE FAMILY, TO C ONE LIGHT COMMERCIAL. THIS IS ON SOUTH BROADWAY AVENUE, THE INTERSECTION OF CAMBRIDGE ROAD AND SOUTH BROADWAY. THE APPLICANT PLANS TO USE THIS PROPERTY FOR A HEALTH CLINIC.

AND SO WILL NOT BE USED FOR RELIGIOUS USES. I BELIEVE THEY PLAN TO SELL THE PROPERTY AS WELL FOR THAT PURPOSE. THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES ARE A MIXTURE OF COMMERCIAL AND SOME RESIDENTIAL. TO THE EAST SIDE. THIS PROPERTY IS ALONG SOUTH BROADWAY, AND IT'S ONE OF THE LAST PROPERTIES THAT HAS NOT BEEN REZONED FOR COMMERCIAL USE. AND IT'S CONSISTENT WITH THE FUTURE LAND USE GUIDE TO BE COMMERCIAL PROPERTY. LIKE I SAID, THEY THEY DO PLAN TO HAVE

AN EYE DOCTOR EYE CLINIC AT THIS THIS PROPERTY HERE. AND THE NOTICES THAT WERE SENT OUT, WE DID RECEIVE SOME IN OPPOSITION WITH THE PROTEST CALCULATION OF JUST OVER 17% GENERALLY THAT THAT CONCERN WAS WITH ADDITIONAL TRAFFIC. SOME OF THE OTHER THINGS THAT COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES MAY MAY BRING. BUT LIKE I MENTIONED, THIS PROPERTY IS ON SOUTH BROADWAY. AND THE REASON IT IS STILL A SINGLE FAMILY ZONE IS BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN A CHURCH AND THERE WAS NOT A NEED TO CHANGE IT TO ANYTHING OTHER OTHER THAN THAT. SO BUT THIS IS APPROPRIATE ZONING FOR THIS LOCATION. THE PLANNING COMMISSION BY UNANIMOUS VOTE RECOMMENDED APPROVAL OF THIS REQUEST. ALL RIGHT. ANY QUESTIONS FOR CARL? I DO HAVE A CARD HERE FROM RAY BOUDREAUX. IF WE HAVE QUESTIONS FOR HIM. AND ALSO, IS THERE ANYBODY HERE THAT IS AGAINST THE ITEM THAT IS SHOWN UP IN RED THAT WISHES TO SPEAK OR.

BUT THIS PROPERTY WAS OR IS SURROUNDED BY COMMERCIAL OR INDUSTRIAL ZONING. AND WHEN THE AMEND THE FUTURE LAND USE GUIDE TO COMMERCIAL, WHICH IN THAT AREA IS A LOGICAL CHANGE.

THEY WILL HAVE TO COMPLY WITH ALL APPLICABLE BUILDING CODES IN THAT, IN THAT CONVERSION. AND LIKE I MENTIONED, I THINK THEY DO PLAN TO HAVE SOME KIND OF ACCESS TO THE TO THE MAIN STREETS INSTEAD OF THAT, THAT COUNTY ROAD THERE TO THE, TO THE NORTH OF THE NOTICES THAT WERE SENT OUT AND THEN RETURNED IN FAVOR OR IN OPPOSITION TO THIS REQUEST.

CARRIES. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. ANYONE? SO? GOOD MORNING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. MY NAME IS NIKKI INGRAM AND I'M HERE TODAY TO PRESENT AGENDA ITEM M ONE TO AWARD A CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT FOR THE WESTSIDE WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT. FAST TRACK SLUDGE LAGOON REHABILITATION PROJECT. A LITTLE BACKGROUND ABOUT THIS PROJECT. THE WESTSIDE WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT HAS ABOUT A 5 MILLION GALLON SLUDGE LAGOON. IN 2024, THE SLUDGE LAGOON WAS NEARING CAPACITY AND HAD TO BE EMPTIED FOR THE TEXAS COMMISSION ON ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY PERMIT.

AFTER WE EMPTIED THE SLUDGE LAGOON, IT WAS FOUND THAT THE LINER WAS IN A DETERIORATED CONDITION AND THE T-C-E-Q REQUIRES US TO REPLACE THAT LINER. AND SO THE SCOPE FOR THIS PROJECT WILL INCLUDE THE REHABILITATION OF THE SLUDGE LAGOON LINER, CONSTRUCTION OF THE SLUDGE PUMP STATION, SITE, IMPROVEMENTS THAT WILL INCLUDE YARD PIPING, PAVING, GRADING AND STORMWATER INFRASTRUCTURE, AND SITE ELECTRICAL IMPROVEMENTS THAT WILL INCLUDE DUCT BANKS, TRANSFORMER TRANSFORMERS, AND CONTROL SYSTEMS. SO THIS PICTURE ON THE RIGHT IS THE CURRENT PICTURE OF THE SLUDGE LAGOON. AS YOU CAN SEE, THE LINER IS TORN UP. SO SEALED BIDS WERE OPENED ON MAY 20TH, 2025. WE HAD THREE BIDDERS AND THE LOWEST RESPONSIBLE BIDDER WAS CAPPS CAPCO CONSTRUCTION IN THE AMOUNT OF $2,462,950. IT'LL BE A 12 MONTH CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT CONTRACT THAT'S ANTICIPATED TO TAKE PLACE BETWEEN AUGUST 2025 AND AUGUST 2026. SO IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE CITY COUNCIL AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT IN THE AMOUNT OF $2,462,950, WITH CAPPS CONSTRUCTION FOR THE WESTSIDE WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT, FAST TRACKS, LAGOON REHABILITATION PROJECT AND ADOPT A RESOLUTION RESERVING THE RIGHT TO REIMBURSE EXPENDITURES WITH PROCEEDS OF FUTURE DEBT. ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS FOR NIKKI? ONE QUESTION FOR YOU, NIKKI, WHY THIS PROJECT IS GOING ON? IS THAT SLUDGE LAGOON OUT OF SERVICE? YES. SO THE SLUDGE LAGOON IS CURRENTLY OUT OF SERVICE BECAUSE WE'RE NOT ALLOWED TO PUMP ANY SLUDGE INTO IT WITH THE LINER BEING TORN UP. ONE. ONE BENEFIT OF THIS PROJECT

[00:35:05]

TOO, IS WE'RE GOING TO INSTALL A SLUDGE LAGOON PUMP STATION, SO WE WILL HAVE THE ABILITY TO PUMP THE SLUDGE FROM THE LAGOON BACK TO OUR BELT PRESSES AND TREATED OURSELVES INSTEAD OF HAVING TO WAIT TILL IT FILLS UP AND THEN HIRE A CONTRACTOR BECAUSE THAT IS EXPENSIVE. SO WHAT DO YOU DO IN THE MEANTIME? WHILE THE WHILE THE PITS OUT OF SERVICE, WE'RE JUST HAVING TO PRESS AS FAST AS WE CAN, AND EVERYBODY'S WORKING MORE HOURS TRYING TO PRESS ALL THE SLUDGE BECAUSE WE CAN'T LET IT OVERFLOW. AND THEN THE SLUDGE IS TRANSPORTED. WHERE? TO THE LANDFILL. ALL RIGHT. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? MOVE TO APPROVE EM. ONE SECOND. GOT A MOTION BY CARTER, SECOND BY WYNN. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE. AYE. OPPOSED? THANK YOU. YOU BET. THANK YOU,

JIM, TO PAUL. GOOD MORNING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. PAUL NEWHOUSE. WE GOT UP IN THIS PLACE IS CLEARING OUT. THIS ONE DOES SMELL A LITTLE BETTER PROBABLY, THOUGH. I'VE BEEN OUT THERE. I CAN SPEAK FROM EXPERIENCE. SO I'M. I'M PRESENTING ITEM TWO THIS MORNING, WHICH IS THE 2025 STRUCTURE FLOODING PROJECT THAT AFFECTS SIX LOCATIONS IN TYLER.

SO THIS PROJECT WILL DEAL WITH SOME FLOODING OF SIX STRUCTURES OR, WELL, SIX LOCATIONS, MULTIPLE STRUCTURES THROUGHOUT THE CITY. THE LOCATIONS ARE LISTED HERE NOT NECESSARILY IN ORDER OF PRIORITY, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE FIRST ONE. THAT ONE DEFINITELY HAS THE BIGGEST PROBLEMS OF THE BUNCH. A QUICK MAP HERE THAT SHOWS YOU THE LOCATIONS OF THE PROJECTS. THOSE ARE HIGHLIGHTED IN YELLOW, AND I DID THIS TO HIGHLIGHT THE FACT THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL THAT ARE WERE IDENTIFIED WITH THE COMPREHENSIVE STORMWATER MASTER PLAN THAT WAS DONE BY HALF ASSOCIATES HERE A FEW YEARS BACK. THOSE ARE THE ROUND DOTS THERE. THERE ARE A FEW OF THESE LOCATIONS THAT ARE NOT THAT WERE NOT IDENTIFIED. VARIOUS REASONS MAY OR MAY NOT HAVE BEEN THE REASON FOR THAT. BUT PRIMARILY THAT STUDY WAS DONE AT A HIGH LEVEL. THERE ARE TWO THAT I HAVE HIGHLIGHTED IN PINK BECAUSE THOSE ARE ON THE RADAR FOR FUTURE WORK, PENDING FUTURE BUDGET AND RESOURCES AVAILABILITY. JUST A QUICK COUPLE OF PICTURES FOR SOME OF THE PROBLEMS AT SOME OF THE LOCATIONS THAT WE HAVE RECEIVED CALLS AND COMPLAINTS FROM. THE FIRST ONE THERE IS ON PERSIMMON, THAT MIDDLE ONE THERE IS PRINCEDALE, AND AS WELL AS THE ONE ON THE RIGHT. SO THE, THE, THE WHAT WE'RE DOING WITH THIS PROJECT IS WE'RE TRYING TO PICK UP THE, WE'RE PICKING UP THE STORMWATER BEFORE IT GETS TO THE PROBLEM POINT. WE'RE INCREASING PIPE SIZES. WE ARE MAKING IMPROVEMENTS TO THE TO THE DRAINAGE STRUCTURES AS NEEDED TO PUT THE STORMWATER AND STORMWATER SYSTEM UP TO OR AS CLOSE AS WE CAN GET TO 100 YEAR DESIGN CRITERIA THAT WE CURRENTLY HAVE FOR THE CITY OF TYLER. SO THE PROJECT WAS ADVERTISED PER STANDARD AND REQUIRED DETAILS. BIDS WERE OPENED MAY THE 20TH. WE HAD TWO BIDS FROM TWO QUALIFIED CONTRACTORS. THEY WERE VERY CLOSE, WHICH INDICATES, IN MY OPINION, A GOOD SET OF PLANS, A GOOD A GOOD PROJECT, TWO GOOD CONTRACTORS THERE. BUT REYNOLDS AND CADE SUBMITTED THE LOW BID FOR THIS PROJECT. THE FUNDING IS BEING SPLIT BETWEEN THE GENERAL FUND. THE. THE LION'S SHARE OF IT WILL BE COMING FROM THE GENERAL FUND TO THE TUNE OF 821,477 AND 20 AND HALF CENT. WE'VE GOT SOME EMERGENCY FUNDS THAT HAVE SENT EARMARKED AND WE ARE USING THOSE FUNDS FOR THIS YEAR. THE REST OF THE AVAILABILITY OF THE FUNDS TO THE TUNE OF 455, NINE 4380 FROM HALF CENT. I PAUSE HERE FOR JUST A SECOND. ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS? YEAH. PAUL, HOW DO YOU HOW DO YOU. DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FLOODING? YOU KNOW, WHETHER IT'S SOMETHING MAYBE A DEVELOPER DIDN'T HAVE SOMETHING QUITE RIGHT. IT CREATES THE FLOODING OR SOMETHING UPSTREAM THAT CREATED THE FLOODING, WHETHER IT'S WHETHER IT'S A PRIVATE PRIVATE PROPERTY OWNERS RESPONSIBILITY OR CITIES. HOW DO HOW DO YOU DETERMINE. SO OFTENTIMES USUALLY I'M GOING TO SAY THE PROBLEM IS PRETTY OBVIOUS. NOW MAYBE THE EXACT PROBLEM, THE DETAILS, THE NUANCES DON'T COME TO LIGHT UNTIL IN THIS CASE, THE BRANDON

[00:40:02]

CORPORATION DID THE ENGINEERING WORK, DID THE STUDY, DID THE DESIGN WHERE THEY REVIEW AND THEY LOOK AT THE AREA, DETERMINE WHAT THE TRIBUTARY DRAINAGE AREA IS, THE CONTRIBUTING AREA, ONE OF THESE LOCATIONS, OF COURSE, IT'S ALL WATER UNDER THE BRIDGE. THERE WAS YEAH. AT THIS POINT BECAUSE IT WAS DONE SO LONG AGO. HA HA HA. BUT WHEN IT WAS DEVELOPED, THE STORMWATER DIDN'T GO WHERE THEY SAID IT WAS GOING TO GO. SO WE HAD MORE WATER COMING TO, IN THIS CASE KENSINGTON THAN WAS ANTICIPATED BACK WHEN THE WHEN THE AREA WAS DEVELOPED. AND I DON'T KNOW EXACTLY WHY OR HOW. RIGHT. AGAIN, THAT WAS YEARS AGO. WE JUST KNOW THIS IS THE PROBLEM TODAY. WE'VE GOT AN UNDERSIZED PIPE. YOU KNOW, EVERYBODY CAN SEE THE STREET BEING OVERWHELMED AND WATER FLOWING OVER THE INLET AND INTO THE FRONT DOOR OF THE HOME, YOU KNOW. SO THAT'S THAT'S WHAT YOU WHAT YOU DO. AND WE RELY ON CITIZENS COMPLAINTS, PHOTOGRAPHS, DOCUMENTATION SUCH LIKE THAT THAT HELPS US DETERMINE AND TRACK DOWN THE SOURCE AND THE CAUSE AS WELL.

OKAY. SO THE RECOMMENDATION FROM THE, FROM THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT IS THAT THE CITY COUNCIL CONSIDER AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT WITH REYNOLDS AND K LIMITED FOR THE 2025 STRUCTURE FLOODING PROJECT FOR $1,277,421.

BID NUMBER 20 5-0 23. ANY QUESTIONS FOR PAUL? MOVE TO APPROVE HIM TO SECOND A MOTION BY WYNNE. SECOND BY NICHOLAS. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE. AYE.
