I'M NOW CALL TO ORDER THE SECOND PUBLIC HEARING REGARDING BAYTOWN CRIME CONTROL PREVENTION DISTRICT FISCAL YEAR 2021.

PROPOSED BUDGET.

IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE THE STAFF WOULD LIKE TO ADD? WOO.

SORRY.

OH MAN.

, THAT HASN'T ALREADY BEEN SAID.

NO MA'AM.

PRESIDENT AND DIRECTORS, EVERYTHING STAYS THE SAME.

TO ITEM THREE IS BAYTOWN CRIME CONTROL PREVENTION DISTRICT'S CONTINUATION ELECTION ITEM A, CONSIDER A RESOLUTION CALLING FOR BAYTOWN CRIME CONTROL PREVENTION DISTRICT'S CONTINU CONTINUATION ELECTION TO BE HELD ON TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 3RD.

HEARING NONE, I NOW CLOSE THE SECOND PUBLIC HEARING REGARDING THE BAYTOWN CRIME CONTROL PREVENTION DISTRICT 2021.

UM, AND MOVE

[c. Consider a resolution adopting the Baytown Crime Control and Prevention District's Fiscal Year 2020-21 Budget.]

ON TO ITEM TWO C.

WE'RE GONNA CONSIDER A RESOLUTION ADOPTING THE BAYTOWN CRIME CONTROL PREVENTION DISTRICT'S FISCAL YEAR 2021.

BUDGET.

I NEED A MOTION TO APPROVE ITEM TWO C AND A SECOND WHENEVER.

ALL IN FAVOR SAY AYE.

AYE.

ALL RIGHT.

MOTION PASSES.

AND NOW WE MOVE ON

[3. BAYTOWN CRIME CONTROL AND PREVENTION DISTRICT CONTINUATION ELECTION]

MR. GENERAL MANAGER, LET PLEASE, I'M SORRY.

UM, IF IT PLEASES THE PRESIDENT, I'D LIKE TO TAKE ITEM THREE A THROUGH C TOGETHER.

IS SET TO TAKE ON NOVEMBER 3RD.

ITEM THREE A IS THAT YOU ARE ACTUALLY CALLING YOUR CONTINUAL CONTINUATION ELECTION.

[00:05:01]

UM, AS YOU APPROVED YOUR ACTION, UH, PLAN AT YOUR LAST MEETING, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT YOU'VE BEEN WORKING ON IS GETTING READY TO CALL YOUR ELECTION.

LET THE PUBLIC KNOW WHAT IT IS THAT WE'RE GONNA FOCUS ON FOR THE NEXT FIVE YEARS.

UM, BY CALLING THE ELECTION, YOU PUT THE WHEELS IN MOTION AND THAT GIVES ME THE AUTHORITY TO THEN MOVE FORWARD AND HANDLE WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE IN ORDER TO MAKE YOUR ELECTION HAPPEN.

UH, WITH THAT SAID, ITEM B AND C ARE, UM, THE BOARD ALLOWING STAFF, THE GENERAL MANAGER WITH THE HELP OF THE LEGAL COUNSEL TO, UH, NEGOTIATE AND EXECUTE, UM, JOINT ELECTION AGREEMENTS FOR ELECTION SERVICES WITH THE TWO COUNTIES SINCE BAYTOWN IS BOTH IN HARRISON, CHAMBERS COUNTY.

UH, ITEM B IS FOR THE ELECTION SERVICES CONTRACT WITH HARRIS COUNTY AND ITEM C IS FOR THE ELECTION SERVICES WITH CHAMBERS COUNTY.

UM, I'LL BE HAPPY TO ENTERTAIN ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU HAVE.

UM, BUT THIS, THIS JUST GIVES US AUTHORITY TO HANDLE WHAT WE NEED TO HANDLE WITH THE COUNTIES.

DOES ANYONE AND STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL? DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OVER THE EITHER AMOUNTS OR THE ELECTIONS OR ANYTHING AT THIS TIME? JUST 85,000 FOR THE ELECTION.

I MEAN, IS THAT IN LINE WITH WHAT WE TYPICALLY PAY? WHAT DOES IT COST THE CITY TO DO? ELECTIONS? SO THE LAST TIME THE CITY HAD A CITYWIDE ELECTION, WHICH IS WHAT C UH, CCPD WILL BE DOING, WE CAME IN.

HELLO LITTLE BIT CHRIS.

HI, MR. WAR .

CHRIS, WE'RE IN ITEM THREE, SO, UM, IF YOU WANNA CATCH UP THERE.

WE'RE AT THE, UM, ELECTION INFORMATION.

LET'S GIVING US AN UPDATE.

HELLO? I CAN'T IF YOU HEAR ME, I CAN'T HEAR YOU.

THAT'S, UH, THAT'S MR. UH, STEEL.

STEEL 4 37.

WELL, I CAN'T HELP HIM ANY HERE.

JUST FINE.

UM, I'M GONNA HAVE LLOYD LOOK INTO THAT.

UM, FROM OUR SIDE, IT CAME IN AT A LITTLE BIT OVER A HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS AND HERE'S WHY.

HARRIS COUNTY HAS MOVED TO COUNTYWIDE POLLING LOCATIONS.

SO THAT'S AN INCREASE IN COST, PERSONNEL, LOCATIONS, ET CETERA.

UM, CHAMBERS COUNTY, WE HAVE EXPANDED.

SO WE'VE ADDED, UH, SOME AREAS IN OUR LPA, SO WE'RE HAVING MORE POLLING LOCATIONS, MORE PERSONNEL, A HIGHER COST.

THE BIGGEST COST THAT YOU'LL SEE, IT WILL BE THE PUBLICATION.

AND SO WE WILL TRY AND MITIGATE THAT AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.

MAKE THE, MAKE IT LEGAL LEGALLY COMPLIANT, BUT HAVE AS MUCH COST SAVINGS AS WE CAN, UNDERSTANDING THAT WE ARE REQUIRED TO PUBLISH IN OUR LOCAL PUBLICATION, UH, IN OUR, SO WE HAVE TO DO IT MM-HMM .

UM, SO AGAIN, WE'LL TRY TO DO THE BEST WE CAN TO LIMIT THE COST TO THE DISTRICT AS THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THAT THE DISTRICT WILL HANDLE ITS ELECTION COSTS COMPLETELY ON ITS OWN.

AND WE HAVE A LEGISLATIVE CHANGE ALSO.

WE DID HAVE A LEGISLATIVE CHANGE, MA'AM, BUT WHAT THAT DID IS IT PUT FIRE CONTROL AND CCPD IN LINE WITH ITS, UM, EXPIRATION DATE.

UH, THEY WERE AT DIFFERENT TIMES.

THE CITY MADE A BIG, UM, MOVE IN THE LEGISLATIVE SESSION TO MAKE SURE THAT CCPD AND FIRE CONTROL REMAINED IN THE SAME CYCLE SO THAT WE CAN CONTINUE TO BRING IT TO THE VOTERS AT THE SAME TIME.

MONEY CAN.

AND JUST WE LOVE, JUST OUTTA CURIOSITY, UH, BECAUSE HARRIS COUNTY HAS CHANGED THEIR ELECTIONS, DOES THAT MEAN I COULD GO OVER TO JERSEY VILLAGE AND VOTE FOR THE BAYTOWN CCPD? YES, SIR.

SO, UH, HARRIS COUNTY'S PROCESS IS SIMILAR TO EARLY VOTING AS IT'S ON ELECTION DAY.

SO IF YOU ARE A REGISTERED VOTER OF HARRIS COUNTY, YOU WILL BE ABLE TO VOTE AT ANY OF THE 500 PLUS LOCATIONS LOCATED IN HARRIS COUNTY.

IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE SET UP WHERE YOU CAN ONLY VOTE ON STUFF THAT'S IN, I KNOW THE BALLOTS WILL BE THE SAME.

IT'S, IT'S LIKE EARLY VOTING DISCLOSURE IF, AND SO ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I WAS EXPLAINING TO MR. RA EARLIER, THE CITY STAFF, EVEN THOUGH IT'S BEING HANDLED BY THE COUNTIES, WE'RE RESPONSIBLE FOR ENSURING THAT EVERY ROAD, EVERY HOME, EVERY BALLOT STYLE IS CHECKED AND REVIEWED.

SO THE STAFF IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MAKING SURE THAT ALL OF THAT IS IN PLACE AND APPROVED AS WE MOVE INTO THE ACTUAL ELECTION.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? OKAY.

THANK YOU LADY.

YES, MA'AM.

WE ARE GOING TO TAKE THEM ITEM BY ITEM BECAUSE THEY EACH NEED ACTION.

SO ACTION.

UM, CALL FOR A MOTION ON THREE A.

YOU CAN DO THREE A.

I CAN DO IT ALL C TOGETHER, MA'AM.

ALL RIGHT.

SO ITEMS THREE A THROUGH C.

[00:10:01]

YOU NEED A MOTION MOVE.

NEED A SECOND? I'LL SECOND.

UH, ALL IN FAVOR? AYE.

AYE.

ITEM FOUR, A PROPOSED RESOLUTION, CONSIDER RESOLUTION CANCELING THE BAYTOWN CRIME CONTROL PREVENTION DISTRICT REGULAR MEETING SCHEDULED FOR JULY 14TH.

ALL RIGHT.

[a. Consider a resolution canceling the Baytown Crime Control and Prevention District Regular Meeting scheduled for Tuesday, July 14, 2020.]

SO YOUR APRIL MEETING WAS ONE OF YOUR REGULAR MEETINGS.

WE HAD THAT MEETING BECAUSE OF THE CHANGE THIS YEAR.

WE'VE MOVED UP TO HAVE BOTH A MAY AND JUNE MEETING TO DO BOTH YOUR ACTION PLAN AND YOUR BUDGET, WHICH YOU'VE DONE ALL OF THAT.

SO THERE'S NO OUTSTANDING ACTIONS THAT WE HAVE LEFT FOR YOU IN THAT REGARD.

JULY IS ANOTHER NORMALLY REGULARLY SCHEDULED MEETING, BUT THERE'S NO ACTION FOR YOU TO TAKE.

SO WE RECOMMEND CANCELING THAT MEETING.

I'LL NEED A MOTION.

I'LL MAKE THAT MOTION.

AND SECOND, AND THAT ONE'S EASY TO GET .

UM, FIVE A IS REPORTS PRESENTATION ON DAYTIME CRIME CONTROL.

DID YOU TAKE THE VOTE? OH, DID I NOT? I'M SORRY.

ALL IN FAVOR? I'M FOR FOUR A.

NOW, RICKY, BUT WHILE WE'RE, BEFORE WE GET OFF THE SUBJECT NOW, THAT MEANS OUR NEXT MEETING ISN'T UNTIL THE MIDDLE OF OCTOBER.

ABOUT, THAT'S RIGHT.

ABOUT TWO WEEKS BEFORE THE ELECTION.

I'M GONNA COVER THAT.

UH, OKAY.

YOU'RE GONNA TALK, OKAY.

CHIEF, UM, REPORT FROM THE HOTSPOT AND COMMERCIAL VEHICLE.

LET'S SLIDE THEN.

I HAVE IT AT THE BOTTOM.

I'LL WAIT ON, I HAVE IT AT THE BOTTOM OF MY NOTES.

YES, MA'AM.

, UM, THE, LET'S SEE,

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

WELL, THANK YOU SO MUCH.

THANK YOU FOR, UH, THAT EDUCATIONAL POINT, LEDDY.

I APPRECIATE IT.

UM, HOTSPOT, UH, THEY HAD IN, UH, THE MAY REPORT FOR THEY HAD 33 ARRESTS, 118 CITATIONS.

THEY ANSWERED 264 CALLS FOR SERVICE.

HAD 185 TRAFFIC STOPS, SAID HELLO TO 159 PEOPLE, ZERO DWIS.

AND THEY FILED A TOTAL OF 96 CHARGES AND THEY SPENT 30 HOURS HELPING SOME OF OUR SPECIAL OPERATIONS AND DETECTIVES BUREAUS UNDER COMMERCIAL VEHICLE ENFORCEMENT.

UM, I THINK, UH, WE MENTIONED LAST TIME THAT MR. SLOT WAS RETIRING.

HE HAS RETIRED AT THE END OF MAY AND SO WE'LL BE FILLING HIS POSITION OVER THERE AT COMMERCIAL VEHICLE ENFORCEMENT.

PRIOR TO HIM, UH, OFFICER WILCOCK HAD RETIRED, SO, YOU KNOW, WE'RE MOVING PEOPLE AROUND AS AS WE CAN, BUT WE'LL FILL THAT OUT.

BUT THE STATISTICS THAT THEY HAD FOR THAT UNIT, UH, LEVEL ONE INSPECTIONS, UH, THEY HAD THREE, AND THIS IS FOR THE MONTH OF MAY.

UH, FOR FROM OCTOBER TO THE PRESENT, THEY HAD 75, THEY HAD 21, UH, LEVEL TWO INSPECTIONS AND THEY'VE DONE 370 THIS SEASON.

UH, 24 INSPECTIONS, UH, 445 TOTAL.

UH, THEY HAD HA ONE HAZARDOUS MATERIAL, UH, THIS MONTH AND 24 SINCE OCTOBER.

THEY PLACED 21 VEHICLES OUT OF SERVICE, UH, DURING THAT MONTH AND 267 TOTAL, UH, DRIVERS, UH, THEY HAD ONE GUY THAT SHOULDN'T BE DRIVING AND THEY'VE DONE THAT 13 TIMES THIS YEAR.

THEY HAD, UH, CVE CITATIONS ISSUED FOR VIOLATIONS, UH, 29 AND 392.

AND THEY ISSUED 79 WARNINGS DURING THE MONTH OF MAY AND OVER A THOUSAND SINCE OCTOBER.

THE MAXIMUM POSSIBLE FINES THAT THEY COULD COLLECT IN, UH, THE MONTH OF MAY WAS $19,715.

AND FROM UH, OCTOBER IT'S BEEN $189,195.

AND FOR WEIGHT RELATED, UH, WARNINGS ISSUED THERE WERE NINE AND 97 TOTAL SO FAR.

ANYONE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE CHIEF COMMENTS? THEY'RE STAYING BUSY WITH A LOT OF THE CONSTRUCTION AND YOU KNOW, WE HAVE SOME HEAVY HAULS THAT ARE GOING UP WITH THE EXPANSIONS.

UH, SERGEANT HENDRICKS AND DAVID ALFORD HAVE BEEN WORKING THOSE PRIMARILY AND MAKING SURE THAT THEY'RE IN COMPLIANCE AND WILL INTERFERE US A LOT OF, WITH US AS LESS AS WELL A LOT OF VEHICLES OUT POSSIBLE.

AND YOU KNOW, SO THERE'S UH, BEEN A LITTLE BIT OF A LEARNING CURVE, BUT, UH, YOU ALSO COULD LOOK AT, HOPEFULLY THE PEOPLE ARE BECOMING IN MORE COMPLIANCE THE MORE THEY USE THE TRUCKS AND THEY GET 'EM UP TO SPEED TO WHERE THEY'RE SAFE, THEN THEY'LL BE OPERATING THAT SAME SAFE VEHICLE.

WE HAD A MEETING WITH EXXON MOBIL THIS MORNING ABOUT THEIR HEAVY HAULS, MAKING SURE THAT OUR FIRST RESPONDERS CAN GET AROUND WHEN THEY NEED TO DO THAT.

THEY'VE HAD TO ADJUST SOME TIMES AS THEY DON'T HAVE SOME NIGHT SHIFTS WORKING THAT THEY USED TO HAVE.

SO WE'LL BE HAVING 17 HEAVY HAULS THROUGH THE END OF JULY, SEVEN MORE BY THE END OF THE YEAR.

SO AT LEAST 24 MORE.

BUT QUITE A FEW OF THOSE ARE AT LEAST OFF THE, THE REGULAR BEATEN PATH.

SO IF WE CAN ADVERTISE, YOU KNOW, SOME OF THOSE HOPEFULLY WILL, UH, RELIEVE SOME OF THE CONGESTION.

'CAUSE THERE ARE ALTERNATE ROUTES AROUND THOSE CONGESTED AREAS THAT WOULD HELP'S.

GOOD CHIEF IT AT LEAST LOOK AT THE REPORT.

IT APPEARS THE MAY NUMBERS ARE A LITTLE DOWN AND AM AM I LOOKING AT IT WRONG OR IS THERE EXPLANATION FOR THAT? YEAH, BECAUSE OF THE PER, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE A LOSS OF PERSONNEL AND THEN THERE'S A, A TRAINING PHASE

[00:15:01]

SO THAT'S A GOOD THING INSTEAD OF, YOU KNOW, SPORADICALLY DOING IT AND NEEDING REPAIR.

COULD COVID COULD HAVE HAD LESS VEHICLES ON THE ROAD.

YEAH, THAT'S THE OTHER FACTOR TOO.

WE HAD A COUPLE A MONTH PERIOD WHERE PEOPLE, AND UH, WE ALSO WERE, UH, UH, WE'RE STILL WORKING, BUT WE WERE DOING, YOU KNOW, LESS OF SOME OF THOSE OTHER TASKS 'CAUSE WE HAD TO REALLOCATE OUR RESOURCES TO WORK OTHER TYPES OF THINGS.

AND THEN YOU HAVE ONE NEW EMPLOYEE ON CVE AND NOW A NEW ONE GONNA HAVE TO START AFTER YOU GET 'EM TRAINED.

THAT'S RIGHT.

ANYTHING ELSE, SIR? ANYBODY ELSE? NOPE.

SOUNDS GOOD.

THANK YOU MUCH FOR YOUR, YOUR TIME.

WANNA HANDLE MANAGER'S REPORT AS DIRECTOR STRONG MENTIONED.

UM, KEVIN, YOU

[6. MANAGER'S REPORT]

UH, NOW THAT WE WILL NOT HAVE THE JULY MEETING, YOUR NEXT MEETING IS SCHEDULED FOR TUESDAY, OCTOBER 13TH AT 4:30 PM HERE IN THE COUNCIL CHAMBERS.

AND FOR EVERYONE ELSE THERE WILL, IF, IF YOU FIND SOMEONE OR A GROUP THAT STARTS TO MEET OR HAS AN HOA OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, OR IF Y'ALL HAVE ZOOM MEETINGS, NEED PRESENTATIONS OR INFORMATION, LET ME KNOW.

WE'LL BE HAPPY TO SEND IT OVER TO YOU.

UM, YOU CAN TALK ABOUT IT OVER A ZOOM, YOU CAN DO IT WHEREVER YOU'RE HAVING A MEETING OR ANYTHING TO PROMOTE THE DISTRICT.

WE AS BOARD MEMBERS CAN PROMOTE.

UM, STAFF CANNOT.

SO WE'RE THE ONLY PROMOTION FOR THE DISTRICT THAT WE HAVE.

SO WE NEED TO GET OUT THERE AND MAKE SURE PEOPLE ARE GONNA REMEMBER TO VOTE FOR IT.

WE'LL HELP, HELP EDUCATE.

WE'LL BE HAPPY TO GO AND, UH, ANSWER QUESTIONS ABOUT THE PROGRAM.

YEP.

DO WE HAVE A PRESENTATION? I HAVE ONE THAT I CAN SEND YOU.

YES, I DO.

I PRESENT THAT AND IT'S GONE THROUGH LEGAL SIMILAR TO THE LAST ONE.

UM, ACTUALLY IT'S VERY SIMILAR.

BUT YEAH, , THAT'S GOOD.

YEAH, I LOOK YOUNGER.

, KEEP FOLKS YOUNGER.

AND IF I'LL GO AHEAD AND SEND IT TO YOU, RANDY.

AND SO KAREN'S ALREADY GONE THROUGH IT, MADE ALL THE CHANGES, SO, ALL RIGHT.

IS THERE ANY OTHER BUSINESS THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED TODAY? WELL, AND I WAS JUST WONDERING, DO, BECAUSE OF THE ELECTION, UH, I CAN'T HELP THINK WE MIGHT NEED TO MEET AGAIN.

I MEAN, MAYBE NOT.

I DON'T, IT'S PRETTY, PRETTY IMPORTANT TO HAVE THAT THE ELECTION PASS AND I JUST HATE THE IDEA.

THE ONLY THING I CAN, YOU THINK WE NEED ONLY ONE MORE TIME, UM, OF COURSE THAT'S FOR A STAFF QUES A STAFF ANSWER ON DATES.

BUT THE PRESIDENT CAN CALL A MEETING WHENEVER, UH, OKAY.

SHE CHOOSES.

SO YEAH, IF YOU, IF YOU FELT THE NEED FOR A SPECIAL MEETING SUCH AS YOU HAD OR YOU HAD AN END TIME, SHE CAN CALL THAT.

WE'LL WORK THE DATE.

LIKE WE WERE NOT, YOU DON'T HAVE ANY MEETING NOW.

YOU CAN ALWAYS BE AUGUST IF YOU FELT LIKE YOU WANTED TO.

I, I DON'T KNOW.

I'M JUST, I MEAN, AUGUST GIVEN TODAY'S GIVE YOU TWO MONTHS, YOU KNOW, WORLD KNOWS WHAT'S GONNA COME UP, SO YEAH.

SO FROM THE ELECTION SIDE, UM, THINGS WILL REALLY START KICKING OFF AND, AND LATE AUGUST, EARLY SEPTEMBER.

OCTOBER 19TH THROUGH OCTOBER 30TH.

EARLY VOTING BEGINS.

UM, OCTOBER 19TH.

I WAS GONNA ASK THAT.

YES SIR.

DO WE HAVE ANY SCHEDULED PLANS OR, OR GAME PLANS OR, UH, AS FAR AS, AS FAR GET GROUPS THAT WE'VE ALREADY STARTED WORKING ON AS FAR AS NOW SINCE OF COVID? NO.

UM, AT THIS POINT IN THE PAST, THE CHIEF AND I PROBABLY WOULD'VE ALREADY BEEN TO KIWANIS AND, UH, LION'S CLUB AND EVERYBODY ELSE THAT WE COULD THINK OF.

BUT SINCE I DON'T BELIEVE THEY'RE MEETING RIGHT.

UM, THAT'S WHY I'M SAYING MAYBE A ZOOM MEETING WITH SOMEBODY, IF THEY'RE HAVING ZOOMS, WE MIGHT COULD SEE IF WE CAN GET ON SOME OF THEIR SCHEDULES AND I'LL WORK ON THAT THIS WEEK.

WELL, I WAS GONNA SAY, I, I REALIZE THEY'RE PROBABLY NOT MEETING, BUT THEY MAY BE STARTING UP IN THE NEXT MONTH OR TWO.

AND I SUGGEST, LET'S BE PROACTIVE AND SAY, HEY, WHEN YOU START MEETING, I KNOW YOU'RE GOING PROGRAMS. YEAH, I'LL GO AHEAD AND CHECK WITH SOME OF THEM THAT I KNOW FOR A FACT.

AND, UM, IF YOU KNOW SOMEBODY IN PARTICULAR GO AHEAD AND CHECK AND SEE IF THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE MEETINGS ANYTIME SOON.

UM, I'M THINKING ABOUT HAVING AN HOA MEETING BY ZOOM BECAUSE WE HAVEN'T HAD ONE IN A WHILE AND I'M SURE THAT WOULD MAKE EVERYBODY FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE.

SO, YOU KNOW, THAT'S SOMETHING I CAN ADDRESS THEN.

BUT IF, IF OTHER GROUPS ARE DOING THE SAME OR IF YOU HEAR OF SOMEBODY MEETING, LET US KNOW AND WE'LL BE HAPPY TO GET EVERYTHING TO THEM OR SIGN ON AND PASS EVERYTHING ALONG.

JARRIS MADE THE SAME COMMENT, BUT ROTARY HAS BEEN RUNNING ZOOM MEETINGS, SO I KNOW RICK AND NICK BOTH GO TO THOSE.

SO THAT'S SOMEBODY OKAY.

THAT YOU MIGHT REACH OUT TO.

THEY'VE BEEN HAVING REGULARLY

[00:20:01]

SCHEDULED ZOOM MEETINGS.

I'LL TALK TO WHO'S, DO YOU KNOW WHO PRESIDENT IS THIS YEAR? I KNOW SHEILA WAS, I DON'T, BUT I CAN GET THAT TO YOU.

I'LL GET IT FROM NICK.

JUST OUT OF CURIOSITY, IS THERE ANY WAY TO MAKE SOME KIND OF A SMALL VIDEO THAT CAN BE ADDED TO THE CITY'S WEBSITE THAT WOULD PROMOTE THE, WHAT WE'RE THAT THE ELECTION'S COMING UP AND THAT WE'RE REALLY GONNA NEED PEOPLE'S, UH, HELP AND ENSURING THAT THIS, UH, CONTINUES.

WE HAVE AN ELECTION WEBSITE UP FOR CCPD AND FIRE CONTROL.

UH, OUR PUBLIC AFFAIRS IS STILL WORKING ON, UM, THE EDUCATIONAL MATERIAL AND I BELIEVE THAT A VIDEO IS PART OF THE, OF THE PLAN.

THAT, THAT'S THE IMPORTANT THING IS THAT IT IS JUST EDUCATIONAL.

IT IS NOT PERSUASIVE.

BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT WE CAN'T, YEAH, I MIGHT CAN SAY, OH PLEASE VOTE AT THE END OF MINE, BUT CITY CAN'T.

SO IT WOULD JUST BE JUST LETTING 'EM KNOW THERE IS AN ELECTION.

THERE IS AN ELECTION AND THIS IS WHAT'S ON THE BALLOT.

SO, I MEAN, IT'S UP TO YOU.

IF YOU HAVE YOUR OWN ACCOUNT THAT YOU WANNA SHARE SOMETHING, I CAN MM-HMM .

SEND THAT OVER TO YOU OR IN A LOT OF DIFFERENT FORMATS.

SO YEAH.

AND I'M LOOKING WHEN IT'S GONNA BE GETTING A LITTLE CLOSER, SOMETHING THAT WE CAN, 'CAUSE PEOPLE'S MEMORY IS DOING SOMETHING RIGHT NOW WOULD BE JUST A BIT TOO EARLY.

SEPTEMBER TIMEFRAME.

UH, FIRST EARLY OCTOBER TIMEFRAME WOULD BE PROBABLY THE TARGETED TIME TO START, UH, THE, I GUESS EDUCATION OR ADVERTISING.

SO DO Y'ALL WANNA MEET S COLLEGE AUGUST OR SEPTEMBER? ALRIGHT.

I'M NOT ADVOCATING THAT I WANT ANOTHER MEETING, I JUST RIGHT.

I WANT TO HAVE THAT POSSIBILITY OUT THERE.

'CAUSE YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN.

RIGHT.

JUST MAY HAVE WANT HAVE SOMETHING IN, WELL, LENNY HAS TO GIVE SO MUCH NOTICE OUT BY LAW, RIGHT? YEAH.

AS LONG AS, UH, SO THAT'S COMMUNICATED TO THE PRESIDENT, SHE CAN LET ME KNOW AND WE CAN PULL AND WE CAN GET THAT.

ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS, IS DO THE 72 HOUR POSTING.

UM, SO IF, IF IT'S THE PLEASURE OF THE, OF THE BOARD TO MEET IN AUGUST OR SEPTEMBER, SHE CAN LET ME KNOW AND I'LL GET THAT TAKEN CARE OF FOR YOU.

SO Y'ALL WANNA THINK ABOUT IT AND GET BACK TO US AND, OR DO YOU WANNA GO AHEAD AND CALL ONE? YOU COULD ALWAYS CALL ONE AND THEN CANCEL IT IF YOU DIDN'T THINK IT WAS NECESSARY THAT WAY.

IT'S ON EVERYBODY'S, I THINK I'M OKAY.

HE JUST WANTS TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE'S GONNA BE SOMETHING, SOME MECHANISM IN PLACE THAT'S GONNA MAKE SURE THAT THE EDUCATIONAL PROCESS STARTS IN, IN A SEPTEMBER TIMEFRAME SO WE CAN GET THE WORD OUT.

SO CAN, WELL, THINGS CHANGE SO RAPIDLY, BUT GIVEN ALL THE IDIOTIC ANTI-POLICE STUFF GOING ON RIGHT NOW, I WOULD HATE FOR, FOR US.

I UNDERSTAND WHAT, WHAT YOU'RE SAYING.

WE LOOK AT REAUTHORIZED BECAUSE PEOPLE JUST WEREN'T AWARE.

WE CAN LOOK AT POLLEY, ALL OF YOU.

THAT SOUNDS GOOD.

THROUGH EMAIL AND WE'LL LOOK AT THE, UH, EARLY SEPTEMBER TIMEFRAME AND, AND MAYBE AT THAT TIME WE'LL HAVE SOMETHING MORE PREPARED FOR YOU AS IT RELATES TO EDUCATIONAL MATERIAL.

SOUNDS GREAT.

AND I'LL LET MY FELLOW BOARD MEMBERS SPEAK FOR ITSELF, BUT I GATHER THAT WE'RE ALL WILLING TO MEET AGAIN IF NEED BE.

ABSOLUTELY.

ABSOLUTELY.

YEAH, THAT'S NO PROBLEM.
