Jan 11, 2022 Baytown Crime Control and Prevention District

THIRD PARAGRAPH SHOULD HAVE BEEN DANO DANIEL DANK.

SO, BECAUSE I WAS LIKE, WHO'S ANNA? SO THAT WAS MY ONE CHANGE.

GOOD.

MOVE ON TO ITEM TWO A IS CONSIDERED A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE AGREEMENT OF OFFICERS AND EQUIPMENT WITH THE CITY OF BAYTOWN.

SO WE HAVE A MOTION WITH CHANGES.

ALL IN FAVOR INDICATE BY SAYING AYE.

AYE.

ANY OPPOSED? OKAY.

WE ARE GOING TO, LET ME GET BACK IN ORDER HERE.

[a. Consider a resolution authorizing the Agreement for Officers and Equipment with the City of Baytown.]

I WOULD ASSUME SOMEBODY'S MAKING A REPORT OR NO, THAT IS THE INTERLOCAL.

THAT IS THE INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT THAT WE TALKED ABOUT.

I DON'T KNOW IF, IF YOU NEED TO REVIEW IT OR ANYTHING, BUT, UM MM-HMM .

WHAT IS THAT? IT'S THE AGREEMENT THIS BOARD HAS WITH THE CITY TO PROVIDE THE SERVICES THAT WE HAVE AND, AND NOTHING'S CHANGED IN THAT.

YEAH.

THE ONLY THING I DID NOTICE UNDER THE DESCRIPTIONS OF THE PROGRAM, IT HAD BEEN PERSONNEL TECHNOLOGY AND EQUIPMENT AND CAPITAL, AND NOW IT'S BROKEN OUT WITH THE PERSONNEL IN TWO SECTIONS.

WHICH THEY SHOULD JUST BE UNDER PERSONNEL.

AND I WAS WORRIED THAT WITH IT NOT STATING EQUIPMENT ON HERE, WE WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THE EQUIPMENT PURCHASES THAT WE NEEDED.

YEAH.

LEMME SEE.

I DON'T HAVE A COPY OF THAT VERSION IN FRONT OF ME.

ANGELA, DO YOU HAVE A COPY OF THAT? YES.

SHE WAS SENDING IT OVER TO LEGAL TODAY.

KNOW DURING THE ELECTION WE GO PERSONNEL EQUIPMENT.

IF I GO, I'M TREVOR FANNING, I'M THE INTERIM.

HI TREVOR.

INTERIM CITY ATTORNEY.

UH, THIS HAS ALREADY BEEN TO COUNSEL AND THEY APPROVED IT.

KAREN DRAFTED IT BASED UPON THE STRATEGIC PLAN THAT Y'ALL APPROVED IN MAY OF 2020.

AND SO SHE WROTE IT BASED OFF OF THAT.

AND THAT WAS BECAUSE WE'RE FOCUSING MOSTLY ON PERSONNEL DUE TO THE FUNDS AT THAT TIME.

AND WE DIDN'T HAVE EXTRA FUNDS FOR EQUIPMENT AT THAT TIME.

SO MY PERSONAL ITEM IS, IS THIS LEGAL TO MOVE FORWARD? I KNOW THE EQUIPMENT OF THE, THE EQUIPMENT TO SAY IT DOES SAY, UH, TECHNOLOGY IN THERE.

IF THE, IF THE EQUIPMENT IS PART OF THE TECHNOLOGY, I DON'T KNOW.

I, I DON'T KNOW WHAT IF THAT WORKS FOR Y'ALL.

IT WORKS FOR ME.

WE, WE HAD MADE SIMILAR PURCHASES IN THE PAST, NOT, I MEAN, I DON'T REMEMBER IT EVER BEING WORDED THIS WAY.

I, I DO KNOW THAT WE DID THIS BECAUSE WE DIDN'T HAVE THE FUNDS FOR ANY ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT THIS BUDGET YEAR.

I WILL SAY I LOOK BACK AT, UH, SOME OF THE STRATEGIC PLANS FROM THE PAST AND THEY HAD DIFFERENT WORDING AND I, AND THE INTERLOCALS.

I, I THINK THAT THE INTERLOCALS WERE ALWAYS BASED UPON THE STRATEGIC PLAN.

STRATEGIC PLAN BASED ON WHAT COUNCIL DECIDES.

I HAVEN'T GONE THROUGH ALL OF THEM.

I JUST LOOKED AT NO, Y'ALL, Y'ALL APPROVE YOUR STRATEGIC PLAN.

UM, THAT'S MY ONLY CONCERN.

SO IF, IF WE FEEL, I JUST DON'T WANT ANYTHING TO COME BACK ON US FROM THE STATE WITHOUT IT HAVING EQUIPMENT IN IT MM-HMM .

SAYING WE CAN'T DO SOMETHING THAT WE ALREADY DID, THEN WE'RE BETWEEN A ROCK AND A HARD PLACE.

WELL, UM, IF, IF THAT, SO IF, IF THAT CAME UP, WE COULD ALWAYS AMEND OUR INTERLOCAL.

OR WE COULD GO BACK TO THE BEGINNING NOW IF YOU WANT.

AND, AND REDRAFT WE WOULD, UH, I'M REALLY NOT TRYING TO MAKE AN ISSUE OUT OF IT.

I'M JUST TRYING TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE LEGAL IN WHAT WE'RE DOING.

YES, MA'AM.

SINCE THE WEIGHT STATED, I UNDERSTAND YOUR CONCERN AND, UH, IT, IT COULD BE A CONCERN.

I CAN'T SAY THAT IT WOULDN'T.

I, I DON'T KNOW IF UNDER FINANCE THAT EQUIPMENT COULD BE CONSIDERED TECHNOLOGY, BUT IT'S LISTED AS EQUIPMENT IN THIS PACKET.

SO IF THAT COULD BE GINA'S SHAKING HER HEAD YES.

WE CAN MAKE IT TECHNOLOGY AND NOT

[00:05:01]

EQUIPMENT.

ALL RIGHT.

THAT'S WHAT WE NEED TO VERIFY.

UNDERSTOOD.

IS THAT IT'S FINANCIAL AND LEGAL ARE ALL ON THE SAME PAGE.

YES MA'AM.

OH, AND IF I, IF I COULD CLARIFY.

SO WE ARE, WE ARE SAYING THAT EQUIPMENT'S GONNA BE OKAY.

LIKE IF THEY NEEDED TO ORDER ASK, ARE THEY GONNA BE ABLE TO DO THAT? 'CAUSE THAT DOESN'T FALL UNDER TECHNO, UH, TECHNOLOGY.

UM, IF, IF THAT SITUATION CAME UP, WE COULD AMEND OUR INTERVIEW, WE WOULD HAVE TO AMEND OKAY.

DO THAT.

IT'D BE NICE TO JUST HAVE IT ALL SAID AND DONE UP FRONT SO WE DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT AMENDING ANYTHING.

WELL, THAT HAS TO GO BACK TO COUNCIL.

AND FOR THE PROCESS OF WHAT WE'RE DOING, IF WE'RE GOING TO PASS THIS, THEN WE'D HAVE TO MOVE IT TOWARDS A TECHNOLOGY ISSUE.

AND SINCE THEY ARE TECHNICAL ISSUES MM-HMM .

WE MAY MAINTAIN AT THIS TIME, JUST GO FORWARD.

I'M UNDERSTANDING, I THINK IT'S LIKELY WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO AMEND THIS AGREEMENT ANYWAY IN THE FUTURE, ESPECIALLY AS WE TALK.

MORE ABOUT THE TRANSFER OF, OF PERSONNEL.

IF THE COUNSELS ACT, YOU KNOW, IS OPEN TO THAT, THEN UH, WE CAN DO SOME OTHER CLEANUP.

AT THAT TIME AS WELL.

I THINK YOUR AGREEMENT'S GOOD TO GO FOR RIGHT NOW.

ALRIGHT.

THAT'S WHAT WE NEEDED.

JACOB.

GOOD AFTERNOON.

HI, I'M GINA REPRESENTING THE FINANCE DEPARTMENT AND I WON'T SPEAK TO THE LEGAL PART AS FAR AS THE, UH, AGREEMENT IS, BUT DEFINITELY WHAT WE'RE DOING, THOSE FUNDS HAVE ALREADY BEEN APPROVED BY YOU GUYS AND THE BUDGET AS WELL AS BY MAYOR AND COUNCIL.

SO WE ARE ABLE TO GO AHEAD AND DO THIS TRANSACTION.

WHAT YOU DO IN THIS ITEM SHOULD NOT IMPACT WHAT WE'RE DOING IN THE NEXT TWO.

THANK YOU GINA.

BECAUSE YOU'LL KNOW IF THAT IT SAYS YEAH.

FY 2122.

SO WE'VE ALREADY AUTHORIZED THAT.

WE'RE JUST DOING IT NOW.

ITEM B IS CONSIDERED A RESOLUTION APPROVING AND AMENDMENT TO THE CITY OF BAYTOWN, UH, BAYTOWN CRIME CONTROL PREVENTION DISTRICT FISCAL 21 20 22.

SO WE CAN GO ON WITH CONSIDERING THE RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE AGREEMENT OF OFFICERS AND EQUIPMENT WITH THE TECH OF THE CITY OF BAYTOWN.

I'LL MOVE TO APPROVE.

ANY OPPOSED? DIDN'T LOOK LIKE IT.

[b. Consider a resolution approving an amendment to the Baytown Crime Control and Prevention District FY2021-2022 budget to reprogram funds for the sole source purchase of eighteen (18) license plate recognition cameras (LPR) and installation from Flock Group Inc., d/b/a Flock Safety.]

BUDGET.

I'LL GET IT ALL OUT IN A MINUTE.

TO REPROGRAM FUNDS FOR THE SOLE SOURCE PURCHASE OF 18, LICENSE PLATE RECOGNITION CAMERAS AND INSTALL AN INSTALLATION FROM FLOCK GROUP INC.

THOSE WERE IN THE PACKET.

WHO'S MAKING A PRESENTATION ON ANYBODY? NO.

YES.

HOLDEN JOHN, EITHER ONE OF YOU.

GOOD AFTERNOON.

UH, YES, THESE, UH, 18 LICENSE PLATE RECOGNITION CAMERAS, UH, WILL BE INSTALLED THROUGHOUT THE CITY SO THAT WE CAN CONTINUE TO KEEP UP WITH, UH, UH, THE ACTIVITY ON OUR STREETS, ESPECIALLY AS IT RELATES TO VIOLENT CRIME.

IT'LL HELP US NOT ONLY DETECT, BUT HOPEFULLY, UH, DEFER AND PREVENT SOME OF THE CRIMINAL ACTIVITY THAT WE'RE BEGINNING TO SEE.

IT'S ALSO AN INCREDIBLE INVESTIGATIVE TOOL TO HELP US TRACK, UH, THE, UH, THE MOVEMENT OF OFFENDERS IN AND OUT OF OUR CITY.

I WAS READING THAT AND IT HAD EVEN THE PAPER TAGS.

YES.

AND I KNOW WE HAVE AN INFLUX OF THOSE RIGHT NOW.

SO THAT WOULD HELP US STOP SOME OF THE ILLEGAL PAPER TAGS COMING THROUGH.

I THINK IT WOULD, I THINK IT WOULD HELP US TO BE ABLE TO RECOGNIZE THEM AND, UH, WE CAN ALSO TAGS SPECIFIC TAG NUMBERS AS WELL, SO THAT ALERTS WERE SENT TO INVESTIGATORS AND PATROL OFFICERS IN REAL TIME.

THAT'S GREAT.

THAT WAS REALLY, I WAS IMPRESSED WITH IT.

I THOUGHT THAT WAS PRETTY COOL.

AND I'M ASSUMING WE'RE USING THE 18 AT DIFFERENT LOCATIONS AROUND TOWN THAT WE ARE, HAVE BEEN RECOGNIZ IN ADDITION TO THE ONES THAT WE ALREADY HAVE DEPLOYED.

THIS WILL INCREASE OUR ABILITY TO, UH, TO, TO ENGAGE IN THE STREET LEVEL INVESTIGATIONS.

COOL.

ALRIGHT.

JUST OUTTA CURIOSITY OR SOME OF THESE NEW ONE COMPANIES THAT WE'RE GETTING, ARE THEY PORTABLE OR THEY CAN BE MOVED AROUND TO YES.

DIFFERENT HOT SPOTS? YES.

MOVED AROUND.

OKAY, GOOD.

SO THIS ISN'T LIKE THE FLOCK THAT'S, THAT'S STUCK IN THE GROUND SOMEWHERE, LIKE IN A ENTRY OF A NEIGHBORHOOD.

THEY'RE GONNA BE, THEY'RE GONNA BE DIFFERENT THAN YOU SEE IN, UH, IN NEIGHBORHOODS THAT, UH, THEY'RE ON A BLACK POLE AND THEY'VE GOT THE CAMERA AND THE SOLAR.

ARE THEY GONNA BE PORTABLE? UH, AS I UNDERSTAND IT, I BELIEVE THESE ARE BOTH, IS THAT CORRECT? UH, YEAH, THEY HAVE A CAPACITY FOR, FOR REDEPLOYMENT.

SO THEY WOULD, THE FLOCK SYSTEM IS ONE THAT YOU JUST DESCRIBED WITH A BLACK POLE THAT SITS THERE WITH A SOLAR SCREEN, BUT THEY COULD BE MOVED OKAY.

AND CAN BE MOVED AROUND.

IT'S NOT PERMANENT WHEN THEY'RE PUT IN THE GROUND BY THAT STATE.

WE CAN GO AND HAVE THOSE MOVED TO ANOTHER, ANOTHER NEIGHBORHOOD OR LOCATION IF WE NEED TO.

WHERE, WHERE DOES THE, HOW, WHERE DOES THE MONEY COME FROM FOR NEXT YEAR? ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT FOR THE, UH, THE SOFTWARE FOR THE FLOCK? THE WAY I UNDERSTAND IT, IT'S UH, IS IT 2,500 A YEAR PER UNIT? ANNUALLY? IS THAT THE WAY THAT WORKS, MIKE? SO YEAH.

THEY, IT'S, IT'S REALLY, THEY'RE JUST SMALLER.

IT, IT'S A GREAT EQUIPMENT TRAILER.

THEY'RE SMALLER.

RIGHT.

IT'S NOT THE ONES THAT YOU'LL SEE ON THE TRADERS.

SO, SO IS THIS AN ANNUAL, UH, PURCHASE? I MEAN AN ANNUAL AGREEMENT OR, OR AFTER, AFTER THEY'RE INSTALLED.

[00:10:01]

SEE IT, IT'S GONNA GO INTO IT.

SO IT'S BASICALLY GOING WITH THE FLOCK.

THIS IS THE INITIAL PURCHASE THAT GOES WITH IT.

AND THEN AFTERWARDS IT'LL BE AN ANNUAL.

IT GOES WITH IT IF WE SEE THAT WE WANT TO, SO THEY BASICALLY BASE THEIR SOFTWARE OFF THE NUMBER OF UNITS THAT YOU DO.

SO IF YOU GO BETWEEN ONE AND 20, IT'S THIS, YOU GO 20 TO 25.

IT COULD BE THIS COST.

SO IT COULD BE A REOCCURRING COST THAT, SO IT'S AN ANNUAL SUBSCRIPTION TYPE? CORRECT.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? I'LL ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO APPROVE.

I'LL MAKE MOTION I SECOND.

WHICHEVER WAY YOU WANNA GO WITH THAT.

YOU GOT THREE OF THEM.

WE BOTH MOVE AND AGREE.

ALL IN FAVOR INDICATE BY SAYING AYE A.

ANY OPPOSED?

[c. Consider a resolution approving an amendment to the Baytown Crime Control and Prevention District FY2021-2022 budget to reprogram funds for the purchase of seventeen (17) B.E Meyers MAWL-DA (Modular Advanced Weapon Laser – Direct Action) IR/visible laser systems for the Baytown Police SWAT team from Down Range Thermal, through the competitive bid process.]

ITEM C IS CONSIDER A RESOLUTION APPROVING AN AMENDMENT TO THE BAY TIME CRIME CONTROL PREVENTION DISTRICT FISCAL YEAR 20 21, 20 22 BUDGET TO REPROGRAM FUNDS FOR THE PURCHASE OF 17 P MYERS.

MAWL DASH DA R VISIBLE LASER SWAT TEAM FOR DOWNRANGE THERMAL THROUGH COMPETITIVE BID PROCESS.

AND THOSE ARE IN THE PACKET TOO.

INFORMATION WE WILL TAKE .

SO THESE ARE LASER DESIGNATORS THAT ARE USED FOR NIGHT VISION GOGGLES THAT ARE USED BY OUR SWAT TEAM FOR LOW LIGHT AND, UH, AND ZERO LIGHT CONDITIONS.

SO IT DOESN'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH A, A, LIKE A SIGHT ON A GUN.

IT'S, IT'S ON THEIR, IT'S IT'S NIGHT VISION GOGGLES OR NO, IT, IT, IT, IT, IT ADAPTS TO THE NIGHT VISION GOGGLES SO THAT THEY CAN SEE WHAT THEY ARE AIMING AT IN THEIR SCANNING.

UH, OUT IN FRONT OF THEM IN LOW LIGHT CONDITIONS.

IT WORKS WITH THOSE.

IT DOES, YES.

WORKS WITH.

SO, SO THERE ARE 17 BAYTOWN POLICEMEN THAT ARE ON THE SWAT TEAM.

UH, WE HAVE A TOTAL OF HOW MANY ON OUR SWAT TEAM RIGHT NOW? RIGHT NOW? YES.

THERE'S 17.

17.

WE HAVE ENTER A LOCAL AGREEMENT.

BASICALLY 13 TO ALMOST 30.

RIGHT.

BUT, BUT THEY'RE ALL BAYTOWN.

UH, THE 17 ARE BAYTOWN.

THE 17 WILL GO TO BAYTOWN OFFICER POLICE OFFICERS.

YES.

THEY'RE NOT GOING TO BE USED FOR THE REPORT.

AND I KNOW I ASKED EARLIER, BUT I WANTED TO ENSURE THAT WE WEREN'T IMPEDING ON OUR CURRENT INVESTMENTS THAT WE'RE SETTING ASIDE FOR SWAT, WHICH I UNDERSTAND WE'RE NOT, I'M LOOKING AT GINA NOW THAT WE STILL HAVE OUR 25 I THINK THAT WE PUT BACK EVERY YEAR TOWARDS THE SWAT.

UM, I KNOW IT'S VEST AND OTHER EQUIPMENT.

SO THIS IS NOT, THIS IS IN ADDITION TO THAT SO THAT WE CAN GET IT AND WE SHOULD BE GETTING CLOSE ON THAT.

THOSE YEARS.

I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY MORE YEARS WE HAVE TO PUT THE MONEY BACK, BUT THEY SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET THEIR EQUIPMENT PRETTY SOON FOR ALL THE MONEY WE'VE BEEN STASHING OVER THE YEARS.

SO ANYWAY.

ANYBODY HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ON THE ADVANCED WEAPON LASER? ALRIGHT, THEN I'LL ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO APPROVE.

I MAKE THAT MOTION.

SECOND.

ON TO ITEM THREE A IS THE PRESENTATION OF BAYTOWN CRIME CONTROL PREVENTION DISTRICT STREET CRIME AND COMMERCIAL VEHICLE STATISTIC REPORT, WHICH WAS HANDED TO US.

ALL IN FAVOR INDICATE BY SAYING AYE A.

AYE.

ANY OPPOSED? OKAY, WE MOVE

[a. Presentation of the Baytown Crime Control and Prevention District Street Crime Unit and Commercial Vehicle Enforcement (CVE) statistical report. ]

CHIEF, YOU'RE UP AGAIN.

I AM.

UM, I'LL START WITH THE, UH, COMMERCIAL VEHICLE ENFORCEMENT UNIT.

UH, I WARNING INSULT INTELLIGENCE BY READING IT LINE FOR LINE NUMBER FOR NUMBER.

YOU WILL SEE THAT, UH, IF YOU COMPARE IT TO LAST MONTH, SOME OF THE NUMBERS ARE DOWN.

UH, A LOT OF THAT HAS TO DO WITH, UH, PERSONNEL ISSUES.

WE HAD SOME THAT WERE OUT ON VACATION DURING THE HOLIDAYS.

WE ALSO HAD SOME THAT, UH, WERE, UM, UH, ILL, SOME THAT WERE SICK, SOME THAT WERE ATTENDING TRAINING.

AND WE ACTUALLY HAD ONE THAT WAS, UH, CONDUCTING A TRAINING SESSION DURING THIS TIME.

SO THE NUMBERS ARE SLIGHTLY DOWN.

HOWEVER, WE ARE BACK UP TO FULL STAFF NOW AND THEY ARE OUT AND, UH, THEY ARE IN FULL FORCE.

UM, ANY QUESTIONS ON THE CVE REPORT? I DON'T THINK SO.

PROGRESS WITH, UH, THE NUMBER OF CONTACTS THAT WE'RE HAVING ON THE STREETS.

UH, SAME THING WITH, UH, WITH THE STRAIGHT CRIMES, UH, FOURTH QUARTER REPORT.

UM, WE DO HAVE ONE OFFICER THAT IS OUT ON, UH, EXTENDED LIGHT DUTY FOR, UH, FOR HIS OWN MEDICAL CONDITION.

AND, UH, WE ARE, UH, UH, WE ARE SHOWING

[00:15:01]

UH, AGAIN, DURING, UH, DURING THE LAST PART OF THE, THE YEAR HERE, UH, YOU'LL SEE SOME DIP IN SOME OF THE, UH, THE STATS, BUT WE CAN ATTRIBUTE THAT TO, UH, OFFICERS TAKING LEAVE DURING THE HOLIDAYS.

WE'VE HAD SOME THAT HAVE BEEN OUT WITH, WITH COVID AND OTHER ILLNESSES, BUT UH, WE ARE CURRENTLY BACK UP TO STAFF WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE ONE OFFICER WHO'S STILL OUT ON THE MEDICAL LEAVE.

ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ON STREET CRIME UNIT OR CDE? WE DO HAVE A NEW SERGEANT OVER CVE.

I UNDERSTAND.

WE DO, UH, SERGEANT, UH, SERGEANT KEN DAVIS.

UH, WE'RE ACTUALLY REBRANDING THAT AS OUR TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT TEAM.

THAT'LL INCLUDE THE CBE FUNCTION AND UH, YOU HAVE PROBABLY SEEN THEM OUT IN TARGETED LOCATIONS MAKING TRAFFIC STOPS AND REALLY, UH, AS WE SAY, LIGHTING UP THE SIDE OF THE ROAD.

UH, THAT'S ALSO BEGINNING TO HAVE AN IMPACT ON OUR VIOLENT CRIME, ESPECIALLY IN SOME OF OUR AREAS ALONG BAKER STREET AND JUST OFF OF GARTH ROAD.

UH, IN THE MORNINGS THEY ARE HITTING THE HIGH, UH, HIGH TRAFFIC INTERSECTIONS, UH, THAT YOU SEE IN THE COMMUTES.

AND UH, WE'VE BEEN VERY SUCCESSFUL WITH THAT.

THAT'S ALSO MADE AN IMPACT IN CRIMINAL ACTIVITY.

UH, IN THE LAST WEEK, UH, THE THREE OFFICERS AND SERGEANT HAVE MADE, UH, THREE UH, UH, FELONY STOPS OR THREE STOPS THAT HAVE RESULTED IN FELONIES TO INCLUDE, UH, FELONY WARRANT ARREST AND REMOVING A TOTAL OF FIVE ILLEGAL WEAPONS FROM OUR STREETS.

I DON'T GET TO SEE 'EM 'CAUSE I DON'T LIVE ON A HIGH PROFILE STREET OVER MY ONE MILE TRACK TO WORK.

ALL RIGHT.

IS THERE ANYTHING OTHER THAN THAT THEN? THANK YOU CHIEF.

AND WE MOVE ON TO THE MANAGER'S REPORT.

APPRECIATE IT.

[a. The next Baytown Crime Control and Prevention District meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, April, 12, 2022, at 4:30 P.M., in the Council Chamber located at City Hall, 2401 Market Street, Baytown, Texas 77520. ]

WELL, I THINK THIS GROUP WOULD PROBABLY BE INTERESTED IN, IN KNOWING WE CONTINUE, UH, MOVING FORWARD WITH THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE PUBLIC SAFETY FACILITY.

AND UH, ACTUALLY AT THE NEXT COUNCIL MEETING ON THURSDAY, THE COUNCIL WILL, UH, CONSIDER APPROVING THE SECOND CHANGE ORDER, WHICH MOVES US INTO PHASE ONE B.

SO ACTUALLY IN A VERY SHORT PERIOD OF TIME, YOU'LL BE ABLE TO SEE SOME THINGS GO VERTICAL OUT THERE, PARTICULARLY WITH THE FLEET, UH, FACILITY.

AND THEN, UH, GOING, MOVING INTO FEBRUARY, WE'LL WE WILL, WE WILL APPROVE ADDITIONAL CHANGE ORDERS, WHICH WILL, UH, PROPEL FORWARD OUR CONSTRUCTION, THE ADMINISTRATION BUILDING, ET CETERA.

SO YOU'RE GONNA SEE A LOT OF ACTION, A LOT OF, UH, CHANGES OUT THERE IN THE NEXT SEVEN MONTHS TO A YEAR, UH, PARTICULARLY.

AND AS WE START TO SEE THIS WHOLE PROJECT COME TOGETHER, IT'S VERY, VERY EXCITING.

UH, MEANWHILE, APRIL 12TH WILL BE THE, UH, DATE OF YOUR NEXT MEETING, UH, RIGHT HERE.

AND APPRECIATE YOUR SERVICE AND WHAT YOU'RE DOING FOR US.

I HAVE ANYTHING FROM ANYONE ELSE AND I'LL ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO ADJOURN.

SO MOVED.

SECOND.
