[P-1 Request that the City Council consider receiving an update presentation on the progress of the Consent Decree Program for Tyler Water Utilities.]

ALL P ONE. WELL, GOOD MORNING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. I'M KATE DIETZ, TYLER, WATER UTILITIES DIRECTOR. AS PART OF OUR ONGOING COMMITMENT TO KEEPING YOU INFORMED ON THE CITY'S PROGRESS UNDER THE FEDERAL CONSENT DECREE, WE'VE INVITED A KEY PARTNER WHO HAS BEEN INSTRUMENTAL IN GUIDING MUCH OF OUR ASSESSMENT, REHABILITATION AND COMPLIANCE WORK. I'M PLEASED TO INTRODUCE JIM FORBES. HE IS THE PRESIDENT AND OWNER OF PIPELINE ANALYSIS.

JIM HAS WORKED ALONGSIDE OUR UTILITIES TEAM FOR MANY, MANY YEARS, PROVIDING TECHNICAL EXPERTISE AND SYSTEM EVALUATION, REHABILITATION PLANNING, FLOW MONITORING, AND LONG TERM COMPLIANCE STRATEGIES. HIS TEAM'S WORK HAS PLAYED A MAJOR ROLE IN HELPING US REDUCE INFLOW AND INFILTRATION, IMPROVE SYSTEM PERFORMANCE, AND STAY ON TRACK WITH OUR CONSENT DECREE MILESTONES. TODAY, JIM FORBES IS GOING TO PRESENT AN UPDATE ON OUR CURRENT PROGRESS, RECENT FIELD FINDINGS AND WHAT TO EXPECT AS WE MOVE INTO THE NEXT PHASE OF THE CONSENT DECREE TIMELINE. PLEASE JOIN ME IN WELCOMING JIM. MAYOR. COUNCIL TOLD ME I HAD ABOUT 3.5 HOURS TO PRESENT THIS, AND I FEEL LIKE I PROBABLY DO IT IN ABOUT TWO AND A HALF, BUT WE'LL SEE WHAT WE CAN GET DONE HERE TODAY. AND PEOPLE CLAPPED FOR YOU. MAYOR. COUNCIL, I'M HERE TO PROVIDE YOU WITH AN UPDATE ON THE STATUS OF THE CONSENT DECREE ASSOCIATED WITH THE WASTEWATER COLLECTION SYSTEM. I'D LIKE TO START BY REMINDING YOU THAT LYING UNDERNEATH THE GROUND HERE IN TYLER IS YOUR SANITARY SEWER. 734 MILES OF SANITARY SEWER SITTING UNDERNEATH THE GROUND, OUT OF SIGHT, BUT NOT OUT OF MIND. IF YOU WERE TO STRETCH THAT END TO END, IT WOULD REACH FROM TYLER TO ATLANTA, GEORGIA. THAT'S A LONG WAYS. AND YOUR JOB IS TO INSPECT THAT LINE. EVERY ONE OF THOSE LINES AND EVERY ONE OF THOSE 12,000 MANHOLES AS PART OF THIS CONSENT DECREE. SO IT'S A MAJOR UNDERTAKING THAT'S BEEN GOING ON UNDER THE CONSENT DECREE. THE BIGGEST. SO IF WE LOOK AT THE PROGRESS, THE MOST IMPORTANT METRIC THAT THE FEDERAL AND STATE REGULATORY AGENCY USE TO MEASURE THE PERFORMANCE OF YOUR SEWER SYSTEM IS THE NUMBER OF SANITARY SEWER OVERFLOWS. A WELL-PERFORMING SYSTEM SHOULD BE BELOW FIVE SANITARY SEWER OVERFLOWS PER 100 MILES OF SEWER. THE TREND SINCE 2017, WHEN DEBORAH FIRST STARTED THIS WHOLE CONSENT DECREE IS CONSISTENTLY DOWNWARD, WITH ONGOING REPAIRS AND MORE CAPACITY IMPROVEMENTS THAT ARE CURRENTLY UNDERWAY. THAT TREND SHOULD CONTINUE. WHEN WE FIRST MONITORED THE WASTEWATER COLLECTION SYSTEM BACK IN 2015, IT TOOK 14 DAYS AFTER A RAINSTORM FOR THE FLOWS TO GET BACK DOWN TO NORMAL. MIKE NORRIS, WHO RUNS THE WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANTS, NOW SAYS WITHIN 24 HOURS THE SYSTEM IS BACK TO NORMAL. SO WE'RE SEEING GREAT IMPROVEMENTS IN WHAT'S HAPPENING OUT IN THE COLLECTION SYSTEM. BUT AGAIN, IT'S BEEN A HUGE EFFORT OVER THESE LAST NINE YEARS, EIGHT YEARS OF CONSTRUCTION AND REHABILITATION TO GET THERE. SO WE'RE SEEING GREAT PROGRESS IN WHERE WE'RE

[00:10:04]

HEADED. WE LOOK AT THE CAUSES OF THE SANITARY SEWER OVERFLOWS IN 2025. THE LARGEST CONTRIBUTORS TO SANITARY SEWER OVERFLOWS WAS FAT OIL AND GREASE. FAT, OIL AND GREASE ACCUMULATE IN THE SEWERS, USUALLY FROM RESTAURANTS, APARTMENTS, COMPLEXES WHERE GREASE IS DUMPED INTO THE SANITARY SEWER. STAFF HAS STEPPED UP INSPECTIONS OF THE GREASE INTERCEPTORS AND THE GREASE TRAPS, AND HAS ESTABLISHED OUTREACH PROGRAMS TO HELP INFORM PEOPLE WHY WE SHOULDN'T BE DUMPING OUR OIL AND GREASE DOWN, DOWN IN THE SANITARY SEWER. T.W. STAFF NOW MEET WEEKLY TO DISCUSS EACH SANITARY SEWER OVERFLOW TO DETERMINE PREVENTIVE ACTION THAT CAN BE TAKEN TO PREVENT FUTURE SANITARY SEWER OVERFLOWS.

GROUPS ONE AND SIX REPAIRS AND CONSTRUCTION HAVE BEEN COMPLETED, ALONG WITH FORCE MAIN AND AIR RELIEF VALVE REPAIRS. SO UNDER THE FIRST SIX SEVEN YEARS OF WORK TO DATE, THERE'S BEEN A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF REHABILITATION. A LOT OF THE CITIZENS AND RESIDENTS HAVE PROBABLY SEEN THAT THROUGH CONSTRUCTION, GOING ON OUT IN THE STREETS AND IN THE IN THE EASEMENTS. CAPACITY PROJECTS ARE WHERE EXISTING SEWERS ARE UNDERSIZED TO HANDLE EXISTING AND FUTURE FLOWS. KSA HAS COMPLETED VARIOUS PROJECTS, WHILE OTHERS ARE IN CONSTRUCTION AND DESIGN. THE LANGDON GROUP GROUP SEVEN REHABILITATION IS WELL UNDERWAY, AND GROUP EIGHT REHABILITATION IS ON SCHEDULE IN THE DESIGN PHASE. SOME CAPACITY CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS INCLUDE WORK OUTSIDE THE CONSENT DECREE. FOR EXAMPLE, TEXDOT ROAD CONSTRUCTION REQUIRES YOU TO RELOCATE SOME OF YOUR SANITARY SEWERS, WHICH WILL CAUSE SOME DELAY IN IN COMPLETING THOSE CAPACITY PROJECTS. THERE ARE FOUR SUCH PROJECTS WHERE THE CONSTRUCTION DURATION MAY EXCEED THE CONSENT DECREE TIMELINE, PRIMARILY DUE TO DELAYS IN OBTAINING LEGAL EASEMENTS AND PERMITTING. WORKING WITH CONTRACTORS, KSA ENGINEERS ARE WORKING TO ENSURE THAT THE CONSENT DECREE. PORTIONS OF THOSE PROJECTS ARE COMPLETED BEFORE APRIL OF 2027, WHICH IS OUR LAST DAY IN THE CONSENT DECREE. EVEN THOUGH THE OVERALL CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT MAY EXTEND BEYOND APRIL, WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THOSE CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS ASSOCIATED WITH CONSENT ARE COMPLETED ON TIME. HOWEVER, JUST IN CASE A CONSENT DECREE RELATED PROJECT EXCEEDS THE APRIL 20TH, 2027 DEADLINE, WE CONTINUE TO ADD NARRATIVE INTO THE ANNUAL REPORTS THAT GO TO E, P A, AND T, CEQ TO INFORM THEM OF THE POSSIBILITY THAT SOME PROJECTS MAY EXCEED THAT DUE DATE. SO WE'VE BEEN MAKING. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY'RE ALWAYS THAT E, P A AND T, C, Q HAVE BEEN MADE AWARE THAT THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME OF THESE PROJECTS TO SLIDE PAST THAT APRIL DEADLINE. WE'RE NOT FORESEEING THAT. BUT IF IT DOES HAPPEN, WE'VE BEEN NOTIFYING THEM SINCE 2023 OF THAT POSSIBILITY. YOUR SANITARY SEWER CONTINUES TO EXPAND AND IS TRACKING POPULATION GROWTH.

WHEN WE STARTED THIS PROJECT BACK IN 2017, IT WAS ESTIMATED THAT YOU HAD 600 MILES OF SANITARY SEWER BECAUSE WE DIDN'T HAVE ANY ACCURATE MAPS OF THE SANITARY SEWER AT THAT TIME. TODAY WE KNOW THERE'S 734 MILES, AND WE KNOW WHERE EVERY MANHOLE IN THAT SYSTEM IS. EACH YEAR, THE AMOUNT OF SEWER INCREASES. GOOD NEWS IS THE NEW SEWER IS BRAND NEW AND IT'S IN GREAT CONDITION. THE BAD NEWS IS THE OLD SEWER THAT DATES BACK TO 1916 IS STILL DETERIORATING AND IS GOING TO REQUIRE REHABILITATION. THE TYLER CONSTRUCTION PHOTOS THAT YOU SEE HERE DATE BACK TO AGAIN 1916. SOME OF THE EARLIEST DRAWINGS OF SANITARY SEWER IN THE CITY. THIS IS A TYPICAL WHAT WE CALL A ASSET MANAGEMENT PERFORMANCE CURVE. REMEMBER THE COLLECTION SYSTEM 1916 VINTAGE. THIS COULD BE YOUR AUTOMOBILE OR SANITARY SEWER. LET'S SAY IN 1916, YOUR NEW FORD IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. AS IT AGES, IT DETERIORATES AND FINALLY WILL FAIL. THIS ASSET MANAGEMENT SYSTEM IS CALLED RUN TO FAILURE TO EXTEND THE LIFE OF YOUR SEWER SYSTEM ASSETS AT THE LEAST COST. YOU NEED TO PERFORM PERIODIC REHABILITATION AND MAINTENANCE. THE 1916 CAR UNDERGOES PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE AND RESTORATION.

THE SEWER SYSTEM UNDERGOES PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE AND REHABILITATION, PERFORMING PERIODIC INSPECTION AND REHABILITATION WILL EXTEND THE LIFE OF YOUR SYSTEM ASSETS AT LEAST COST. RESTAURANTS AND APARTMENTS WILL INCREASE AS POPULATION INCREASES. YOUR FOOD

[00:15:04]

SERVICE ESTABLISHMENT GREASE INTERCEPTORS ARE BEING INSPECTED AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR AND MORE FREQUENTLY FOR THOSE WITH VIOLATIONS OF THE SEWER USE ORDINANCE THAT REQUIRES THEM TO PUMP OUT ACCUMULATED GREASE FROM GREASE TRAPS. FAILURE TO ADEQUATELY CLEAN THE GREASE TRAPS ALLOWS GREASE TO ACCUMULATE IN THE SEWER, RESULTING IN BLOCKAGES AND SANITARY SEWER OVERFLOWS. REMEMBER, GREASE IS THE NUMBER ONE CAUSE OF OVERFLOWS IN THE CITY RIGHT NOW. SO THE GREASE ORDINANCE AND AND ENFORCEMENT IS VERY IMPORTANT. SOME SEWERS COLLECT DEBRIS DUE TO LOW FLOWS. AND AGAIN, SOME SEWERS ARE AS FLAT AS A TABLE. SO WHICH MEANS THAT SOLIDS WILL SETTLE IN THEM AND ACCUMULATE AND IF NOT CLEANED OUT, CAN CAUSE AN OVERFLOW. SO WE'RE BLOCKAGES OCCUR. THE SEWER MAY BE PUT ON A HIGH FREQUENCY CLEANING PROGRAM TO PREVENT FUTURE BLOCKAGES AND OVERFLOWS. IN SOME INSTANCES, THE PIPE IS DEFECTIVE AND IS PLACED ON HIGH FREQUENCY CLEANING UNTIL REPAIRS CAN BE INITIATED. THIS PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE WORK IS A CRITICAL COMPONENT TO MINIMIZE SSOS AND ACHIEVE COMPLIANCE. CITY STAFF PERFORMED THIS CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE AND MAINTAIN A HISTORY OF THE CLEANING AND REPAIRS. CLEANING PROGRAM IS A CRITICAL COMPONENT FOR LONG TERM COMPLIANCE. THE CONSENT DECREE REQUIRES INSPECTION OF ALL MANHOLES, ALL 12,465. IN FIVE YEARS THAT WORK WAS COMPLETED. THE CONSENT DECREE ALSO REQUIRED INTERNAL TV INSPECTION OF ALL 734 MILES OF SANITARY SEWER. SO LOOK AT IT AS YOU PUT A CAMERA IN A SANITARY SEWER, AND YOU START GOING TOWARD ATLANTA. WHEN YOU GET TO ATLANTA, YOU'RE FINISHED.

THAT'S THE TYPE OF EFFORT THAT'S BEEN GOING ON FOR THE LAST SIX, SEVEN YEARS. BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICE IS TO PERFORM INSPECTION OF MANHOLES AND PIPES ON A TEN YEAR CYCLE, AND THAT WOULD BE MY RECOMMENDATION MOVING FORWARD PAST THE CONSENT DECREE, INSPECTING THE ASSETS ONCE IN TEN YEARS IS REASONABLE. I WOULD SAY THE EXCEPTION WOULD BE CRITICAL ASSETS, WHICH SHOULD BE INSPECTED AT A HIGHER FREQUENCY, LIKE MAJOR INTERCEPTORS GOING TO THE TREATMENT PLANTS. THOSE ARE CRITICAL ASSETS. YOU MAY INSPECT THOSE ON A 5 OR 7 YEAR CYCLE. THE GOAL HERE IS TO FIND THE DEFECTS EARLY WHILE THEY'RE LESS EXPENSIVE TO REPAIR. SO INSPECTING ONCE EVERY TEN YEARS IS NOT UNREASONABLE. AND IT'S TO LOCATE THOSE DEFECTS AS THEY'RE RELATIVELY SMALL AND THE COST OF REPAIRS WILL BE LESS. REMEMBER, YOUR OPTION IS TO RUN TO FAILURE AND THAT'S GOING TO BE THE MOST EXPENSIVE OPTION YOU HAVE WHEN YOU START HAVING TO REPLACE ALL THOSE LINES. ON APRIL 10TH, 2026, THE CITY WAS NINE YEARS INTO THE TEN YEAR CONSENT DECREE. NOTE THAT TO COMPLY WITH THE CONSENT DECREE, THE CITY MUST DEMONSTRATE COMPLIANCE ONE YEAR AFTER COMPLETING THE REQUIREMENTS. SO IT'S REALLY AN 11 YEAR CONSENT DECREE WHEN YOU GET DOWN TO IT. SO THE EARLIEST YOU CAN REQUEST TERMINATION OF CONSENT DECREE IS APRIL 10TH OF 2028. I CAN AFFIRM THAT THE CITY IS ON SCHEDULE TO MEET THE CONSENT DECREE REQUIREMENTS, AND LET'S LOOK FORWARD TO WHAT LIFE MIGHT LOOK LIKE AFTER THE CONSENT DECREE. WHEN YOU ARE NO LONGER UNDER THE TUNNEL OR IN THE TUNNEL, LOOKING FOR THAT LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL. THE CONSENT DECREE IS IN THE PAST. YOU CAN SAFELY MODIFY AND CUT PROGRAMS THAT HAVE BEEN DICTATED BY THE CONSENT DECREE.

I URGE YOU TO USE CAUTION WHEN YOU DON'T. AND DON'T DISMANTLE THOSE CORE PROGRAMS THAT ARE PART OF AN EFFECTIVE ASSET MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND ENSURE REGULATORY COMPLIANCE LIKE THE FAT, OIL AND GREASE PROGRAM, YOUR HIGH FREQUENCY CLEANING PROGRAM, YOUR TEN YEAR CONDITION ASSESSMENT AND REHABILITATION. T.W. STAFF T.W. STAFF ARE LOOKING AHEAD AT JUST WHAT LIFE AFTER THE CONSENT DECREE WILL LOOK LIKE, AND THEY'RE DEVELOPING A WRITTEN PLAN TO ENSURE REGULATORY COMPLIANCE AT MINIMUM COST. SO DON'T DISMANTLE THOSE PROGRAMS THAT ENSURE REGULATORY COMPLIANCE, AND THAT WILL EXTEND THE LIFE OF SYSTEM ASSETS, AT LEAST COST. WITH THAT, I'LL BE GLAD TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS. ANY QUESTIONS FOR JIM OR KATE? JIM, YOU SAID YOU NOTICED OR NOTIFIED PROVIDED NOTICE TO THE EPA AND TCEQ IF IF FOR SOME REASON, WHEN THOSE TEX DOT PROJECTS IT GOES BEYOND APRIL 2027, WHAT HAPPENS TO THE CITY? DO WE GET FINE? DO WE GET EXTRA TIME TO COMPLETE THAT? WHAT'S THE PROCESS AT THAT POINT? YEAH, THE CONSENT DECREE IS IT'S ESTABLISHED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE. SO YOU HAVE THOSE. THAT DEADLINE IS FIXED. IF YOU EXTEND IF YOU DON'T MEET THAT

[00:20:01]

DEADLINE. EPAT, YOU HAVE THE OPTION OF FINDING YOU FOR EVERY DAY THAT YOU'RE YOU EXTEND BEYOND THAT CONSENT DECREE. DEADLINE. AGAIN, I'LL I'LL DEFER TO THE ATTORNEYS ON ON WHAT THE NEXT STEP WOULD BE, BUT IT'S, IT'S REALLY OPTIONAL FOR EPA TO DO THE ENFORCEMENT.

IF THEY SEE THAT THE PROJECTS ARE A FEW MONTHS PAST DUE. I IT'S BEEN MY EXPERIENCE THAT THEY'RE NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. IF YOU HAVE MAJOR ISSUES AND PROJECTS THAT ARE WAY BEHIND SCHEDULE ALL ACROSS THE BOARD, THEN I THINK YOU YOU MAY HAVE SOME TROUBLE.

I DON'T SEE THAT HAPPENING HERE, I REALLY DON'T. THANK YOU. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? ALL RIGHT.

GREAT PRESENTATION. THANK YOU, THANK YOU. APPRECIATE IT. I'VE BEEN HERE A LONG TIME AND I'VE NEVER SEEN JIM GET TWO APPLAUSES. YOU'RE GOOD. KYLE. SORRY, SORRY. SORRY. GOOD

THIS IS ON NORTH BROADWAY AND WEST STREET. THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING THE.

THE CHANGE TO ALLOW OR TO FACILITATE THE DEVELOPMENT OF SENIOR HOUSING ON. IN THE BUILDING. THEY PLAN TO REUSE THE BUILDING FOR. FOR RESIDENTIAL SPACE. IF YOU RECALL THIS, THIS REQUEST WAS A. A HOUSING TAX CREDIT PROPOSAL THAT WE. THAT COUNCIL PROVIDED IN RESOLUTION AND SUPPORT A FEW MONTHS AGO. AND SO THE APPLICANT PLANS TO REUSE THIS BUILDING FOR FOR HOUSING. THEY ALSO HAVE PLANS TO USE HISTORIC TAX CREDITS TO FACILITATE THIS PROJECT. THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES ARE GENERALLY COMMERCIAL IN NATURE. THIS REQUEST IS CONSISTENT WITH THE TYLER AND TOMORROW FUTURE LAND USE MAP SHOWN AS DOWNTOWN. AS YOU CAN SEE HERE, THE. THE BUILDING PLANS TO REMAIN AS IS, BUT THEY PLAN TO ADAPTIVELY REUSE AND RENOVATE THE INTERIOR OF THE NOTICES THAT WERE SENT OUT. NONE WERE RETURNED IN FAVOR OR IN OPPOSITION TO THIS REQUEST, AND THE PLANNING COMMISSION, BY UNANIMOUS VOTE, RECOMMENDS APPROVAL. ANY QUESTIONS FOR CARL? SO MOVED. SECOND. GOT A MOTION BY HAWKINS.

CARRIES Z TWO. THIS IS A REQUEST FOR A ZONING CHANGE FROM RPO RESTRICTED PROFESSIONAL OFFICE DISTRICT TO PCD PLANNED COMMERCIAL DISTRICT. THIS IS ON WEST WEST BROADWAY BOULEVARD. THIS. THIS. THE APPLICANT'S REQUESTED THE ZONE CHANGE TO ALLOW FOR THE ADDITION OF MORE. MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS ON. THE PROPERTY IS CURRENTLY ZONED RPO, WHICH RESTRICTS THE NUMBER OF MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS TO. TO THREE. THEY PLAN TO EXPAND ON SITE AND REQUIRE A ZONE CHANGE TO HAVE FOUR OR MORE. AND SO THEY HAVE PROPOSED A PCB PLAN COMMERCIAL DISTRICT, WHICH WOULD BE LIMITED TO RPO. RPO USES, PLUS THE ADDITIONAL CAPACITY FOR MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS AND THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES TO THE NORTH ARE DEVELOPED WITH RESIDENTIAL USES TO THE WEST AND SOUTH ARE MULTIFAMILY AND THEN TO THE EAST IS LIGHT COMMERCIAL. THERE IS A A CEMETERY TO THE NORTHWEST. THIS REQUEST WOULD AMEND THE FUTURE LAND USE GUIDE TO INNOVATION. MIXED USE. AS YOU SEE HERE, THE. THE PROPERTY IS CURRENTLY DEVELOPED WITH RETINA CLINIC OR A RETIN-A RETIN-A CENTER, AND SO THE APPLICANT PLANS TO. ADD MORE. ANOTHER BUILDING RIGHT HERE IN THIS AREA. AND SO THAT'S GOING TO EXCEED THE. THE NUMBER OF PROFESSIONALS LIMITED THE RPO. AND SO THEY HAVE THEY ARE REQUESTING THIS PCB WITH A WRITTEN NARRATIVE, WHICH IS RATHER SIMPLE. IT IT LIMITS THE THE PCB OR THE ZONING TO RPO USES PLUS THE ADDITIONAL CAPACITY FOR. FOR PROFESSIONALS. AND THEN ALSO THE ALL THE OTHER STANDARDS WILL BE WILL BE CONSISTENT WITH RPO, WHICH IS CURRENTLY HOW IT'S ZONED. AND SO THE ONLY ADDITIONAL CHANGE WOULD BE HOW MANY OPTOMETRISTS ARE THERE. OF THE NOTICES THAT WERE SENT OUT NEVER RETURNED IN FAVOR FOR AN OPPOSITION. THE PLANNING COMMISSION, BY

[00:25:03]

UNANIMOUS VOTE RECOMMENDS APPROVAL. ALL RIGHT. ANY QUESTIONS FOR CARL? SECOND GOT A MOTION BY SECOND BY NICHOLS. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE. AYE.

[Z-3 Z26-005 ELENO LICEA (1200 BELMONT DRIVE AND 1201 HIGHLAND AVENUE) Request that the City Council consider adoption of an Ordinance approving a zone change from R-1B, Single-Family Residential District to R-1D, Single-Family Detached and Attached Residential District.]

OPPOSED. MOTION CARRIES THREE. THIS IS A REQUEST FOR A ZONING CHANGE FROM R1 B SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL TO R1. D A SINGLE FAMILY DETACHED AND DETACHED RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT. THIS IS ON BELMONT DRIVE. THE APPLICANT IS REQUESTING THE ZONE CHANGE TO BRING AN EXISTING ACCESSORY DWELLING UNIT INTO CONFORMANCE WITH. THE CODE CURRENTLY IS A A HOUSE ON THE PROPERTY PLUS A AN ADU WHICH. AS IT STANDS, IF THERE WERE WERE ANY ISSUES WITH THAT, IF THEY WERE TO BE DESTROYED OR OR, YOU KNOW, HAVE SOME DAMAGE TO IT UNDER THE CURRENT ZONING, IT COULD NOT BE REBUILT. AND SO THIS ZONING WILL ESSENTIALLY ALLOW THAT TO BE REBUILT. IF IF THAT EVER HAPPENED, THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES ARE GENERALLY SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL. THERE IS COMMERCIAL LAND USES TO THE EAST. THIS REQUEST IS CONSISTENT WITH THE LAND USE GUIDE SHOWN AS NEIGHBORHOOD RESIDENTIAL. THIS IS JUST AN IMAGE OF THE PROPERTY. AS YOU SEE, THERE ARE A VARIETY OF OF HOUSING WITHIN THAT AREA. I BELIEVE THERE ARE SOME OTHER SIMILAR ARRANGEMENTS WITHIN THIS AREA, IF NOT FURTHER TO THE WEST IN THE AZALEA DISTRICT, THERE ARE ADUS IN THAT AREA. OF THE NOTICES THAT WERE SENT OUT, WE RECEIVED A NUMBER IN FAVOR AND NONE IN OPPOSITION, AND THE PLANNING COMMISSION, BY UNANIMOUS VOTE, RECOMMENDS APPROVAL. ANY QUESTIONS FOR CARL? I'LL MOVE TO APPROVE BY Z26-005. SECOND. GOT A MOTION BY CHARLES, SECOND BY BAZ. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR SAY AYE. AYE. OPPOSED.

[Z-4 Z26-007 ACM CAPITAL, LLC (1103 SOUTH ACADEMY AVENUE) Request that the City Council consider adoption of an Ordinance approving a zone change from R-2 Two-Family Residential Duplex District, to R-1D Single-Family Detached and Attached District.]

THE APPLICANT'S REQUEST FROM THE ZONE CHANGE TO HELP FACILITATE THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SINGLE FAMILY HOME ON THIS LOT. THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES ARE ARE ALL ZONED ROUTINE TWO FAMILY, BUT THEY ARE DEVELOPED WITH A MIXTURE OF PRIMARILY SINGLE FAMILY DETACHED HOMES, AND THAT'S WHAT THE APPLICANT PLANS TO DO HERE. THE CURRENT ZONING DOES RESTRICT THE OR DOES PROHIBIT THE APPLICANT FROM MEETING ENOUGH OF A BUILDABLE AREA ON THE SITE. THE REQUIRED SETBACKS TO LIMIT THE ABILITY TO BUILD A HOME ON IT. AND SO THIS ZONING WOULD FACILITATE DEVELOPMENT OF A HOME. AS YOU SEE HERE, THERE ARE SMALLER HOMES TO THE NORTH AND THEN A LITTLE BIT FURTHER TO THE SOUTH. AND SO THE APPLICANT WOULD WOULD BE LIMITED IN BUILDABLE AREA. THEY PLAN TO BUILD A HOME, I THINK THEY SAID AROUND 900FT■!S, WHICH IS CONSISTENT WITH WHAT YOU SEE JUST NORTH OF THEIR OF THE NOTICES THAT WERE SENT OUT. AND THEN WE RETURN IN FAVOR OR IN OPPOSITION TO THIS REQUEST, THE PLANNING COMMISSION, BY UNANIMOUS VOTE, RECOMMENDS APPROVAL. ANY QUESTIONS FOR CARL? NO. MOVE TO APPROVE.

SAY AYE. AYE. OPPOSED. MOTION CARRIES FIVE. THIS IS A ZONING CHANGE FROM R-1, A SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL TO PMF PLANNED MULTIFAMILY RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT. THIS IS TO ALLOW FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A DAYCARE. THE PROPERTY IS CURRENTLY DEVELOPED WITH A CHURCH. THEY DO PLAN TO ALSO PROVIDE A DAYCARE SERVICE UNRELATED TO THE RELATED TO THE CHURCH. AND SO IN OTHER EXAMPLES WE'VE HAD THROUGHOUT THE CITY THAT THE PLANNED MULTIFAMILY ZONING DOES HELP FACILITATE THAT ADDITIONAL USE. AND SO THEY, THEY PLAN TO HAVE THIS PLANNED MULTIFAMILY LIMITED TO THE, THE CHURCH ACTIVITIES WHICH ARE ALLOWED IN ANY RESIDENTIAL, ANY DISTRICT, AS WELL AS THE DAYCARE USE. AND SO THIS PROPERTY IS LOCATED ALONG VAN HIGHWAY, WHICH IS CLASSIFIED AS AN ARTERIAL STREET ON OUR MASTER STREET PLAN SURROUNDING PROPERTIES TO THE NORTH AND EAST. WELL, ALL SURROUNDING PROPERTIES ARE ZONED FOR RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT FOR SINGLE FAMILY HOMES. THE. THE LOTS TO THE EAST AND WEST ARE ARE DEVELOPED WITH HOMES ON LARGER LOTS. THIS REQUEST WOULD AMEND THE FUTURE LAND USE GUIDE FROM NEIGHBORHOOD RESIDENTIAL TO MIXED RESIDENTIAL, SIMPLY BECAUSE IT HAS AN ADDITIONAL COMPONENT OF A DAYCARE. SO IT'S A LITTLE BIT MORE THAN JUST RESIDENTIAL USE. ACTUALLY, THERE'S. IT'S DEVELOPED WITH A CHURCH. THEY PLAN TO ADD ANOTHER BUILDING TO THE, TO THE REAR OF THE PROPERTY. THEY,

[00:30:03]

THEY HAVE PROVIDED A WRITTEN NARRATIVE THAT SETS FORTH ALL THE DEVELOPMENT PARAMETERS FOR THE SITE, WHICH STIPULATES THE, THE ALLOWABLE USES, WHICH ARE CHURCH ACTIVITIES AND THEN DAYCARE. THIS PMF ACTUALLY DOES NOT ALLOW FOR ANY MULTIFAMILY USES, EVEN THOUGH THAT. THAT IS THE NAME, BUT IT IS LIMITED TO THIS, THIS NARRATIVE HERE. BUT BY CODE, THE APPLICANT IS REQUIRED TO PROVIDE A BUFFER YARD ADJACENT TO ANY SINGLE FAMILY DISTRICT. AND THE THE PARAMETERS YOU SEE HERE WILL WILL ALLOW FOR THAT. OF THE NOTICES THAT WERE SENT OUT, NONE. WELL, ONE WAS RETURNED IN FAVOR, NONE. ONE IN OPPOSITION AS WELL AS YOU SEE THERE IN RED WITH A TOTAL PROTEST CALCULATION OF 1.53%.

THANK YOU. THANKS, CARL. THANKS. COUGH. GOOD MORNING. GOOD MORNING. GOOD MORNING HEATHER.

HEATHER. NICK ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER. TODAY WE HAVE A REQUEST TO CONSIDER AND ADOPT A RESOLUTION RECOGNIZING WAYNE SANDERSON FARMS LLC AS A SUCCESSOR ENTITY TO SANDERSON FARMS, WHICH IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE EXISTING TEXAS ENTERPRISE ZONE PROJECT AND WHICH WAS PREVIOUSLY DESIGNATED OR THE COUNCIL FOUND IN SUPPORT OF THE DESIGNATION OF THE ENTERPRISE ZONE BACK IN 2017. THE. THE ASSIGNMENT IS NECESSARY TO REFLECT THE CORPORATE RESTRUCTURING AND OWNERSHIP CHANGES ASSOCIATED WITH THE MERGER, WHILE MAINTAINING COMPLIANCE WITH THE ENTERPRISE ZONE. SO WHAT COMPLIANCE MEANS? SINCE THE ENTERPRISE ZONE IS CONCLUDED, THE FIVE YEARS HAS CONCLUDED AND NOW THEY MUST STILL FULFILL ALL OF THEIR REPORTING AND JOB RETENTION REQUIREMENTS ASSOCIATED WITH THAT ENTERPRISE ZONE PROJECT.

SO NOW THIS IS SIMPLY TO RECOGNIZE THAT THERE WAS THAT CORPORATE RESTRUCTURING IN THE MERGER, AND NOW THEY ARE RECOGNIZED AS WAYNE SANDERSON FARMS. WE DO HAVE REPRESENTATIVES FOR WAYNE SANDERSON FARMS LLC HERE, AS WELL AS OUR TDC COLLEAGUES IN THE AUDIENCE FOR ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE. AND WITH THAT, WE DO RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF OUR ONE.

[M-1 Request that the City Council consider authorizing the City Manager to acquire 16.585 acres of land located at 2851 North Broadway for the development of affordable single-family homes using HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) and Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program grant funds.]

MEMBERS. GOOD MORNING. MY NAME IS LARRY EVERETT. I'M WITH THE CITY OF TYLER NEIGHBORHOOD SERVICES DEPARTMENT AND. AND. SORRY. THAT'S THE NEXT ONE. ONE. IT SHOULD BE M ONE FOR THE ONE ON THE FAR LEFT. OKAY. THAT'S IT. THERE YOU GO. SORRY ABOUT THAT. MY PURPOSE OF BEING HERE, I WANT TO DISCUSS WITH YOU IN TERMS OF PROPERTIES THAT WE WANT TO PURCHASE. WE SUCCESSFULLY FINISHED THE HIDDEN PALACE SUBDIVISION AND GOT HOUSES IN AND DEVELOPED FROM THAT STANDPOINT. SO WE'RE READY TO MOVE TO A ANOTHER AREA IN TERMS OF SO WE CAN START BUILDING OTHER HOMES IN THIS IN THIS AREA. AND THE AREA WE'RE LOOKING AT IS IT'S ON BROADWAY AND THE 16.5 ACRES. YOU SHOULD. OKAY, IT'S ON NORTH BROADWAY. IT'S A ELIZABETH BODENHEIMER SURVEY. IT'S RIGHT NEAR THE BLACK FORK CREEK, AND IT ACTUALLY MEETS THE NATIONAL OBJECTIVES IN TERMS OF US WORKING WITH THE HUD, IN TERMS OF PROVIDING THE FUNDING FOR US ON THIS PROJECT. AND WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT THERE, WE WE ARE IN 2025, WE SET UP AN APPRAISAL

[00:35:01]

FOR THIS PARTICULAR PROPERTY. AS I, AS I SAID, SIX LITTLE OVER 16.5 ACRES. AND BASED ON THE APPRAISAL, IT SAID THE VALUE OF THAT PROPERTY IS $620,000. AND WE ARE LOOKING AT MOVING FORWARD WITH THAT BECAUSE WE CAN COME IN AND ALSO DEVELOP A A LOT OF HOUSES IN THAT AREA FROM THE IMPLEMENTATION OF PEOPLE THAT COME IN AND WANT TO LIVE IN THOSE PARTICULAR AREAS. AND THE FUNDING SOURCES THAT WE'RE GOING TO USE IS FROM HOME GRANTS, FUNDS THAT WE USE. WE'RE GOING TO USE $420,000 FOR THAT. AND THE CDBG COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM, WE'RE GOING TO USE OUR 200,000 FOR THAT, AND WE'LL PROVIDE THE ACQUISITION OF APPLYING FUNDING FOR THAT PROPERTY ITSELF. NOW, WE WILL NOT BE USING GENERAL FUNDS TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THIS PROJECT, AND WE WANT TO LET YOU KNOW THAT FROM THAT STANDPOINT.

AND ONE THING THAT'S THAT'S REALLY GOOD EXPECTATION FOR THIS PROPERTY IS WE HAVE SOME A LOT OF INFRASTRUCTURE ALREADY IN PLACE THERE. WE'RE TALKING ABOUT WATER, SEWER, ELECTRICAL AND, AND FIBER OPTICS WHERE WE CAN, ONCE WE START THE DEVELOPMENT, WE CAN JUST ATTACH IT TO THOSE SPECIFIC AREAS. AND THE QUESTION COMES UP, HOW MANY HOMES DO WE THINK WE CAN DO? WE'RE LOOKING AT WE CAN ACCOMMODATE 25 TO 30 HOMES THERE. WE'RE THINKING WE CAN DO A LOT MORE. BUT OF COURSE, A LOT OF IF YOU LOOK AT THE MAP THERE, IT'S IN THAT TRIANGULAR SHAPE AND THERE'S A LOT OF TREES THERE. SO ONCE WE START REMOVING THE TREES, WE FEEL THAT WE CAN INCLUDE MORE HOUSES IN THAT AREA. AND ONE THING ABOUT THIS PROPERTY, THE MANAGERS ARE VERY GOOD FOR THE WHERE IT'S LOCATED. WE'RE LOOKING AT, YOU KNOW, WE'RE AT FIVE MINUTES FROM DOWNTOWN TYLER. WE HAVE ACCESS TO TRANSPORTATION. WE HAVE THE GRIFFIN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, WHICH IS DIRECTLY ACROSS THE STREET HERE ACROSS BROADWAY.

AND WE HAVE A GLASS RECREATION CENTER. AND OF COURSE, YOU HAVE MOTHER FRANCES WILLARD PARK, A GOLF TRAINING CENTER, BASEBALL FIELD, AND VARIOUS CHURCHES ON, ON THE ON THE STREET THERE IN THAT AREA. SO WE FEEL THERE'S A LOT OF A LOT OF AMENITIES THERE, AND A LOT OF PEOPLE COME IN AND HAVE ACCESS TO ALL THESE AMENITIES THAT WE SEE THERE. AND AS YOU LOOK AT THE PROPERTY OVERVIEW, NOW, YOU'RE LOOKING AT ONE THING THAT'S A, I WOULD CALL A LITTLE NEGATIVE COMPONENT IS A FLOOD ZONE AREAS THAT WE HAVE THERE. BUT WE REALIZE THAT WE CAN UTILIZE SOME OF THOSE FLOOD ZONES IN TERMS OF AFTER WE BUILD THE HOUSES IN TERMS OF PUTTING, YOU KNOW, POCKET PARK OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT IN THAT TO HELP IN THOSE AREAS. AND AS YOU SEE THE LINES THERE, SOME OF THE RED LINES AND GREEN LINES AND THE BLUE LINES THERE, THAT'S THE SOME OF THE UNDERGROUND AMENITIES THAT WE CAN ATTACH TO ONCE WE START BUILDING. RIGHT NOW WE'RE LOOKING AT R-1, SINGLE FAMILY, DETACHED AND ATTACHED HOMES, AND ALSO IS NOTIFIED AS AGRICULTURE DISTRICT. AND THAT'S MAINLY FOR AGRICULTURE BECAUSE OF THE THE NUMBER OF TREES THAT WE HAVE THERE. AND IT REPRESENTS FROM THAT CATEGORY. AND ONCE WE WILL START LOOKING AT REMOVING SOME OF THOSE TREES ALSO TO. BUT IT IS THIS LOT HAS NOT BEEN USED AND IT'S FULLY ACCENTUATED WITH TREES THERE. ONCE AGAIN, WE TALK ABOUT THE OPTIONS IN TERMS OF WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DO, WHAT WE WANT TO DO, WHETHER IT'S GOING TO BE 25 TO 30 HOMES THAT WE KNOW WE CAN BUILD, WE'RE LOOKING AT 1100 TO 1500 SQUARE FOOT ON THOSE HOMES, AND THEY WILL BE SINGLE FAMILY HOMES OR TOWNHOMES OR CONDOMINIUMS AND 2 TO 3 BEDROOMS. WE'RE LOOKING AT THOSE OPTIONS BECAUSE WE'VE HAD A LOT OF PEOPLE COME IN AND LOOKING AT SMALLER HOMES THAT THEY CAN PURCHASE, AND IF WE CAN PROVIDE THAT, THAT IN TERMS OF THOSE TYPE HOMES, WE CAN ACCENTUATE PEOPLE COMING INTO THAT AREA. ONE OF THE QUESTIONS ASKED OF WHAT ARE THE THINGS THAT WE WOULD DO IN TERMS OF THE FINANCIAL PART AS WE BUILD THOSE HOMES, WE'RE GOING TO SET UP A A H, A HOME BUYER ASSOCIATION SET UP IN ORDER TO PROVIDE THE FUNDING FROM THOSE THAT BUY THOSE HOMES. AND WE CAN ALSO KEEP THE DEVELOPMENT OF THOSE HOMES LOOKING NEAT AND, AND LOOKING GOOD IN THAT AREA. AND AS I SAID EARLIER, WE HAD THE OPEN AREAS, WE CAN USE GREEN SPACE AND COMMON AREAS AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE. SO WE WANT TO HAVE IT IN A SETUP WHERE PEOPLE CAN NOT ONLY LIVE THERE, BUT THEY CAN ALSO USE THE AREA IN TERMS OF ALL THE THINGS THAT WE CAN ACCESS THERE. AND OUR RECOMMENDATION HERE IS WE REQUEST THAT CITY COUNCIL AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE AND SIGN ALL DOCUMENTS NECESSARY IN CONNECTION WITH THE PURCHASE OF THE 16.585 ACRES OF UNIMPROVED REAL PROPERTY ON NORTH BROADWAY TO BE USED FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING UNDER THE HOME AND CDBG GRANT PROGRAM.

AND THOSE FUNDS ARE RECEIVED FROM FROM HUD. WHEN WE RECEIVE THOSE EACH YEAR. LARRY, GREAT PRESENTATION AND I LOVE THE FACT THAT THIS IS ALL FEDERAL MONEY AND NOT ANY LOCAL MONEY.

[00:40:02]

YES, AND HIDDEN PALACE HAS BEEN SUCH A SUCCESS BEHIND FIRE STATION NUMBER ONE. YES. IT'S GOOD TO SEE THAT THIS IS BEING IMPLEMENTED. EVEN A LARGER PROJECT. AND THE HOA, WHICH HIDDEN PALACE HAS, HAS JUST MADE THE OWNERSHIP. IT'S JUST A PRIDE OF OWNERSHIP AND IT'S ALL TAKEN CARE OF. IT LOOKS GREAT. SO, YOU KNOW, PERSONALLY, I JUST I LOVE THE PROJECT AND I APPRECIATE YOU GUYS MOVING FORWARD WITH IT. SO ANY OTHER COMMENTS FROM LARRY? JUST A QUESTION, LARRY, YOU MENTIONED THE HOA WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR PRIVATE ROADS. THESE WON'T BE CITY ROADS WITHIN IN THE DEVELOPMENT. IT WILL BE SOME CITY ROADS. BUT WE'RE LOOKING AT SOME OF THE OTHER AREAS THAT WE MAY HAVE TO HAVE SOME ADDITIONAL ROADS PUT IN, PLACED IN. AND IF WE LOOK AT IT AND WE CAN ALSO USE THAT WITH THOSE HOA FUNDS. BUT YEAH, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE THE THE CITY FUNDS WHERE THE HOUSES ARE GOING TO BE LOCATED. OKAY. BUT WE ALSO WANT TO ACCENTUATE OTHER THINGS AS WE GO ALONG. I, I DON'T WANT TO GO INTO DETAILS BECAUSE ONCE WE REMOVE THE TREES, WE'LL KNOW A LITTLE BIT ABOUT SOME OF THE THINGS WE CAN PUT IN THOSE AREAS THERE. THANK YOU. MR. INTENDED PRICE POINT FOR THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING. I'M SORRY, WHAT'S THE INTENDED PRICE POINT ON THE HOUSES? WELL, RIGHT NOW WE'RE LOOKING AT AS BECAUSE OF THE THE MATERIAL CONTINUALLY GOING UP FOR CONSTRUCTION, WE'RE LOOKING AT ROUGHLY 200 TO 230 ZERO ZERO $0 PER PER HOUSE. IF WE LOOK AT IT FROM THAT STANDPOINT. AND THAT'S THAT'S THAT'S WHAT WE DO. AND, AND THE GOOD THING ABOUT THIS IS HUD ALLOWS US ON, ON THIS TYPE OF FUNDING, IF WE SELL THE HOUSES FOR LOW TO MODERATE INCOME CITIZENS, THEY'RE GOING TO ALLOW US TO RETRIEVE THAT MONEY BACK INTO INTO THE CYCLES. AND THEN WE CAN CONTINUE BUILDING AS WE GO ALONG. SO THAT'S, THAT'S ONE OF THE ADVANTAGES OF, OF USING HUD FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IN THIS SITUATION, IN TERMS OF WHAT THEY'RE ALLOWING US TO DO. ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS FOR LARRY? NO MOVE TO APPROVE EM. ONE SECOND. GOT A MOTION BY MARK, SECOND BY HAWKINS. ANY FURTHER DISCUSSION? ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, SAY AYE.

AYE. OPPOSED. MOTION CARRIES. THANK YOU FOR YOUR HARD WORK, MR. LARRY. THANK YOU, SIR. M2
