SO IF YOU'LL COME UP IN RECOGNITION OF YOUR COMMITMENT TO SERVING THE COMMUNITY OF PLANO, TEXAS ON THE BOARD OF ADJUSTMENT, THANK YOU SO MUCH. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. APPRECIATE IT.

[APPLAUSE] OKAY. COMMENTS OF PUBLIC INTEREST. COMMENTS OF PUBLIC INTEREST.

[COMMENTS OF PUBLIC INTEREST]

THE COUNCIL MAY NOT DISCUSS THESE ITEMS, BUT MAY RESPOND WITH FACTUAL OR POLICY INFORMATION.

THE COUNCIL MAY CHOOSE TO PLACE THE ITEM ON A FUTURE AGENDA.

AND WE HAVE FIVE SPEAKERS THIS EVENING. THE FIRST ONE IS MICHAEL RUBEN TREJO.

THE LAST TIME I DID THIS, IT WAS ON ZOOM. I JUST WALK UP HERE AND INTO THE MIC.

OKAY, GREAT. WONDERFUL. THANK YOU, MAYOR MUNS AND ESTEEMED COUNCIL MEMBERS FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK TODAY.

MY NAME IS MICHAEL RUBEN TREJO. I LIVE AT 2416 WINTERSTONE DRIVE, AND I'VE LIVED AT THIS ADDRESS SINCE APRIL 2024.

THREE MINUTES ALLOWS ME TIME FOR ONLY A BRIEF ASIDE.

SO FAR, MY FAMILY AND I ARE VERY HAPPY THAT WE MOVED TO THE CITY OF PLANO.

AND WE WE DO INTEND TO STAY HERE. I'M HERE THIS EVENING TO ADDRESS AN INEQUITY IN OUR SEWER BILLING SYSTEM THAT UNFAIRLY BURDENS NEW RESIDENTS WHO HAVE BELOW CITY AVERAGE SEWER USAGE. I SPOKE BEFORE THIS COUNCIL ON JUNE 24TH, 2024, EXPRESSING A CONCERN THAT MY HOUSEHOLD WOULD BE SUBSTANTIALLY OVERCHARGED FOR SEWER DUE TO THE CITY OF PLANO'S PRACTICE OF USING AN ASSUMED SEWER VOLUME FOR NEW RESIDENTS.

INDEED, THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED. IN MY FIRST YEAR AS A RESIDENT MY HOUSEHOLD WAS OVERCHARGED BY $538.32 BASED ON ASSUMED USAGE, RATHER THAN OUR ACTUAL MUCH LOWER SEWER USAGE.

PUT DIFFERENTLY, THIS REPRESENTS A 190% OVERCHARGE.

WHILE I UNDERSTAND THE NEED FOR ESTIMATION, NOW THAT WE HAVE MY ACTUAL USAGE DATA, THERE IS NO JUSTIFICATION FOR MY HOUSEHOLD TO SUBSIDIZE OTHER HOUSEHOLDS THAT HAVE HIGHER CONSUMPTION. INDEED, THROUGH THIS PRACTICE, I AND OTHER BELOW AVERAGE USAGE NEW RESIDENTS SUBSIDIZE OTHER ABOVE AVERAGE USAGE NEW RESIDENTS OF PLANO.

THIS CROSS-SUBSIDY OCCURS EVERY YEAR. I HAVE TWO REQUESTS.

NUMBER ONE, I'M REQUESTING A REFUND OF THESE OVERCHARGES.

AND NUMBER TWO, I'M ASKING THE COUNCIL TO CONSIDER ADJUSTING THE POLICY TO RECONCILE ACCOUNTS ONCE THE FIRST WINTER QUARTER AVERAGE OR WQA IS ESTABLISHED. THAT IS, IN ADDITION TO BEING PROSPECTIVE.

THE FIRST WQA WOULD BE RETROSPECTIVE AS WELL, AND WOULD APPLY TO THE ENTIRE PERIOD DURING WHICH AN ACCOUNT WAS CHARGED THE CITY AVERAGE SEWER VOLUME. IF A HOUSEHOLD'S FIRST WQA IS BELOW THE CITY AVERAGE, ITS ACCOUNT WOULD BE CREDITED WITH THE OVERCHARGE.

BUT IF A HOUSEHOLD'S FIRST WQA IS ABOVE THE CITY AVERAGE, ITS ACCOUNT WOULD BE DEBITED TO MAKE UP FOR THE SHORTFALL.

SUCH A CHANGE WOULD ENSURE THAT EVERYONE PAYS THEIR FAIR SHARE, WHILE STILL RESPECTING THE SEWER METERING CHALLENGES THAT GIVE RISE TO THE WQA METHOD IN THE FIRST PLACE. I'M HAPPY TO DISCUSS THIS ISSUE FURTHER, BUT THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME IN ALLOWING ME TO VOICE THIS CONCERN.

THANK YOU. THE NEXT SPEAKER IS SUSAN WILLIAMS. SUSAN WILLIAMS. WE WILL MOVE ON TO RUBY WALLACE.

THEN WE WILL MOVE ON TO V CRYSTAL CURRY. HI, AS SHE MENTIONED, MY NAME IS CRYSTAL CURRY. I DO HAVE A LONG FIRST NAME THAT MY MOTHER BLESSED ME WITH, BUT I WON'T GIVE YOU THE TONGUE TWISTER THIS AFTERNOON, THIS EVENING.

IT'S GOOD TO SEE THE TROOPS HERE. I WAS A GIRL SCOUT MYSELF.

HAD GOT ALL THE BADGES AND HAD A ROOM FULL. MY MOM WAS THE THE COOKIE BEE LADY, SO WE HAD A HOUSE FULL OF COOKIES AND EVERYBODY.

SO I WON THE BADGE THAT YEAR. BUT ANYWAY I'M GOING TO REFER TO MY PHONE AS WELL.

[00:10:03]

I'M EDUCATED AND I HAVE OVER 30 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE IN TECHNOLOGY, WHICH HAS PROVEN TO BE BENEFICIAL IN MY DETERMINING SOME OF THE CAUSE OF SOME OF THE ISSUES THAT I'VE EXPERIENCED. AS A PART OF MY RELOCATION PACKAGE TO TEXAS, TO DALLAS, I WAS PARTNERED WITH A REAL ESTATE AGENT WHO PROVIDED STATS ABOUT THE STELLAR PLANO SCHOOL DISTRICT, WHICH YOU KNOW, I LOVED FROM THE ONSET.

MY DAD WAS MILITARY. WE WERE STATIONED IN AUSTIN, TEXAS, WHICH WAS BERGSTROM AT THE TIME, WHICH WAS AN AIR IT'S AN AIRPORT, BUT IT WAS A AIR FORCE BASE.

BUT SO I'M FAMILIAR WITH TEXAS, BUT NEW TO DALLAS OR KIND OF NEW I MOVED HERE IN 2013.

BUT I'M FAMILIAR WITH MOVING FAMILIAR WITH MAKING CONNECTIONS WITH PEOPLE, AND I LOVE THE ADVENTURE OF BEING IN DISCOVERING NEW PLACES.

UNFORTUNATELY, TODAY I AM HERE TO SPEAK ABOUT A VERY DIFFERENT EXPERIENCE LIVING IN PLANO.

I'VE CALLED IT MALICIOUS MISCHIEF. HOWEVER, THAT SEEMS A LIGHT TERM CONSIDERING THE SEVERE DISTRESS THAT IT'S CAUSED ME WHICH HAS INCREASINGLY HEIGHTENED OVER THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS AND IT'S VERY DIFFICULT TO PUT INTO WORDS.

AND IT'S EVEN IMPACTED MY ABILITY TO MAKE A LIVING.

I'VE SHARED SOME OF THE SPECIFIC DETAILS REGARDING THOSE ISSUES WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD SERVICES PEOPLE.

I MET WITH THEM LAST WEEK. SO WE'VE HAD A MEETING TO DISCUSS SOME OF THIS.

AND I'VE WRITTEN SEVERAL EMAILS. NOT ONLY TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD SERVICES PEOPLE, BUT ALSO TO THE CITY COUNCIL AS WELL.

I HOPE YOU'VE READ THEM. BUT IN THE ALLOTTED THREE MINUTES, I IT WOULD BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT FOR ME TO SUMMARIZE ALL OF THE ISSUES THAT I'VE EXPERIENCED. BUT THE MOST EXCRUCIATING OF THOSE ISSUES IS WHAT I CONSIDER TO BE SOMEWHAT OF A GENOCIDE.

I KNOW THAT'S A STRONG TERM, BUT I USE IT SPARINGLY, BUT ALSO TO EXPRESS THE DEEP CONCERN THAT I HAVE.

IT INVOLVES MY CHILDREN AND I AND THINGS THAT I DIDN'T GIVE PERMISSION TO OCCUR.

AND IT DOES INVOLVE THE CITY OF PLANO AND SOME OF THE RESIDENTS OF THE CITY OF PLANO AS WELL.

SO IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO TO SUE A TON OF PEOPLE AND EVERYWHERE.

BUT MY REQUEST IS THAT I WOULD HAVE SOMEBODY FROM THE COUNCIL PARTNER WITH ME.

I'VE ALREADY CONTACTED THE US CONGRESS AND SPECIFICALLY THE SENATE FOR ASSISTANCE, AND I WOULD APPRECIATE IF YOU WOULD PARTNER WITH ME TO RESOLVE THE ISSUES THAT I'VE WRITTEN ABOUT. AND THEY DO INVOLVE THE CITY AS WELL.

SO THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME, AND I APPRECIATE ANY ASSISTANCE THAT YOU CAN GIVE ME.

THANK YOU. THE LAST SPEAKER IS BILL LYLE. IT IS MORE IMPORTANT TO ME TO OWN SOMETHING WHEN I KNOW THAT I'M WRONG, THAN IT IS IMPORTANT FOR ME TO EVER BE RIGHT ABOUT A TOPIC.

I CERTAINLY CONSIDER BEING REMOVED BY THE POLICE TO MEETINGS AGO AS SOMETHING THAT'S WRONG.

AND SO WHAT I DID IS I REFLECTED ON WHAT I COULD HAVE DONE DIFFERENTLY IN THAT MEETING.

I WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT I PULLED AN AGENDA ITEM THAT WAS ABOUT BINOCULARS FOR THE POLICE, AND I USED MY TIME TO TALK ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF JUSTICE BEING BLIND IN OUR COURTROOM.

I REGRET GOING AROUND THE SYSTEM IN THIS MANNER AND MAYOR MUNS, I ASK FOR YOUR FORGIVENESS FOR DOING THAT.

I THINK THE TOPIC I WAS SPEAKING TO IS IMPORTANT, BUT THE MANNER THAT I WENT ABOUT ABOUT IT WASN'T THE RIGHT WAY TO DO IT.

I THINK THAT MIGHT HAVE LED TO SOME OF THE FRUSTRATIONS LATER IN THE MEETING.

I ALSO APOLOGIZE TO THE POLICE OFFICER THAT HAD TO BE HERE TO SPEAK TO AN ISSUE WHEN THERE WASN'T ONE.

AND THEN TO THE GENTLEMAN THAT IS HERE THAT ALSO HAD TO TO REMOVE ME.

NEXT, I WOULD LIKE TO CONGRATULATE OUR NEW COUNCIL MEMBERS ON YOUR SUCCESSFUL ELECTION.

I KNOW THE TOLL THAT AN ELECTION TAKES AND THE EXPENSE AND THE WORK AND THE EVERYTHING THAT GOES INTO IT.

AND CONGRATULATIONS SINCERELY. YOU ARE NOW MY COUNCIL MEMBERS AS WELL, AND I LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH YOU AND BRINGING YOU REAL ISSUES.

MARIA, I'M GOING TO USE THE REST OF MY TIME TO ADDRESS YOU, BECAUSE I WAS TRYING TO ADDRESS YOU WHEN I WAS REMOVED.

I THINK IT WAS UNPROFESSIONAL OF YOU TO CROSS-EXAMINE STAFF THE WAY YOU DID.

YOU COULD HAVE ASKED ANY NUMBER OF QUESTIONS ABOUT THE REAL TOPIC.

I REJECT YOUR CHARACTERIZATION THAT THESE WERE MY ISSUES.

THESE WERE REAL ISSUES THAT I HAD WITH THE CITY SELLING PROPERTY THAT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH ME.

YOU COULD HAVE ASKED WHAT THE RECOMMENDATIONS WERE THAT WERE JUST ADOPTED IN THE 12TH STREET STATION SILVER LINE AREA STUDY.

YOU COULD HAVE ASKED WHAT THE RECOMMENDATIONS IN THAT STUDY WERE ON BLOCK LINKS.

YOU COULD HAVE ASKED IF AVENUE P SHOULD ACTUALLY LINE UP WITH THE NORTHERN ALIGNMENT IN THE FUTURE,

[00:15:05]

BUT YOU DIDN'T ASK ANY OF THESE THINGS. YOU SIMPLY CROSS-EXAMINED AND LED YOUR WITNESS, WHICH WAS STAFF, IN A VERY AWKWARD MANNER AND REALLY, WERE VERY OFF TOPIC.

AND TO BE CONSISTENT, I THINK WE SHOULD ALL BE ON TOPIC AT THIS MEETING.

20 SECONDS. I WANT TO REMIND YOU, MARIA, THAT IN THE LAST 24 MONTHS, YOU VOTED UNANIMOUSLY WITH THE CITY COUNCIL TO APPOINT ME TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION ON TWO DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, TO SPEAK TO LAND USE ISSUES.

AND SO I WAS HERE WITH A GENUINE CONCERN, AND I DON'T APPRECIATE THE WAY THAT YOU HANDLED IT.

THANK YOU FOR THE TIME. OKAY. MOVING ON TO THE CONSENT AGENDA.

ITEM NUMBER ONE TO APPROVE AN EXPENDITURE IN THE AMOUNT OF $3,050,000 FOR THE PURCHASE OF REAL PROPERTY LOCATED AT 2701 PARK HAVEN DRIVE FROM THE PLANO INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT, AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE ALL NECESSARY DOCUMENTS.

GOOD EVENING, CITY COUNCIL MY NAME IS MATTHEW YEAGER.

I SERVE AS THE CITY'S REAL ESTATE MANAGER. I'M HERE TONIGHT FOR TWO ITEMS THAT INVOLVE THE CITY'S POTENTIAL ACQUISITION OF PROPERTY THAT THE PLANO INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT HAS DECLARED SURPLUS. THE FIRST ITEM TONIGHT IS DAVIS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, LOCATED AT 2701 PARK HAVEN DRIVE.

IT OPENED IN 1972. SUBSEQUENT TO INVESTIGATION AND A COMMUNITY OUTREACH PROCESS THAT THE SCHOOL DISTRICT UNDERTOOK IN THE 23-24 SCHOOL YEAR, WAS ONE OF THE FOUR CAMPUSES DEEMED SURPLUS PROPERTY.

UNDER AN ILA ADOPTED BY BOTH THE PLANO INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT SCHOOL BOARD AND CITY COUNCIL IN OCTOBER OF 2024 THE CITY HAS THE FIRST OPPORTUNITY TO PURCHASE THESE PROPERTIES. YOU CAN SEE BEFORE YOU RIGHT NOW, JUST A BRIEF OVERVIEW OF THE DAVIS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL SITE, 5.3 ACRES. WE'VE AGREED ON A PRICE OF JUST OVER $3 MILLION SINGLE FAMILY ZONING AND IT'S DESIGNATED AS NEIGHBORHOODS ON THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.

IT SHARES A BORDER WITH CADDO PARK TO THE NORTH YOU CAN SEE THERE TO THE EAST IS A LDS CHURCH.

JUST FOR FURTHER KIND OF REFERENCES, TO THE WEST AND SOUTH, YOU'LL FIND HAGGARD MIDDLE SCHOOL AND THE PLANO SENIOR HIGH CAMPUS.

STAFF PROPOSES TO JUST HAVE A COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT PROCESS TO DETERMINE FUTURE USES OF THIS.

THOSE FUTURE USES WILL NEED TO BE CONSISTENT WITH THE SURROUNDING PROPERTY, BENEFIT THE COMMUNITY, AND MAINTAIN THE INTEGRITY AND SECURITY OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT'S PART OF THAT ILA WITH THE PLANO INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT, I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE.

THANKS, MATT. ANY QUESTIONS FOR MATT REGARDING THIS? COUNCIL MEMBER KEHR. YEAH, JUST A QUICK QUESTION.

WHEN YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT GETTING COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT, IS THAT IN THE IMMEDIATE NEIGHBORHOOD OR THROUGHOUT THE CITY? PRIMARILY FOCUSED ON THE IMMEDIATE NEIGHBORHOOD, OF COURSE, IT WILL BE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC SO ANYBODY CAN CONTRIBUTE THEIR OPINION, SHOW UP TO MEETINGS THAT WILL BE HELD. ALL STAFF IS REACHABLE.

THEY CAN, OF COURSE, PETITION THE CITY COUNCIL. SO NO PROPERTY IS AN ISLAND.

BUT MOST LIKELY THE NEIGHBORHOOD WILL HAVE KIND OF THE MOST INTEREST AND BE THE LOUDEST PEOPLE TO GUIDE FUTURE DEVELOPMENT.

ALONG THOSE SAME LINES, ARE THERE ANY AGREEMENTS THAT WE'RE EXPECTING TO ENTER IN WITH THE SCHOOL SYSTEM REGARDING LIMITATIONS ABOUT HOW TO USE THE PROPERTY OR RESELLING IT AND THINGS LIKE THAT? NOTHING OUTSIDE OF WHAT IS IN THOSE INTERLOCAL AGREEMENTS OR THE INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT OF JUST BEING CONSISTENT WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD, MAINTAINING THE INTEGRITY OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD, BENEFITING THE PUBLIC IN SOME FORM OR FASHION? VERY GOOD.

THANK YOU. I'M VERY IN FAVOR OF THIS. OKAY. COUNCIL MEMBER LAVINE.

[00:25:05]

SO YOU WILL FIND WITHIN THERE KIND OF A CONCRETE PLAY AREA, SOME BASKETBALL GOALS, SOMETHING TO THAT EFFECT.

OKAY. COUNCIL MEMBER KEHR. I'D LIKE TO MOVE THAT WE ACCEPT THIS THIS ITEM.

SECOND. OKAY. SO I HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND TO APPROVE ITEM NUMBER ONE.

THIS IS NOT A PUBLIC HEARING. SO THIS IS JUST A REGULAR ITEM FOR ACTION.

PLEASE VOTE. MOTION PASSES 8 TO 0. THANK YOU.

NEXT ITEM. ITEM NUMBER TWO, TO APPROVE AN EXPENDITURE IN THE AMOUNT OF $5,375,000 FOR THE PURCHASE OF REAL PROPERTY LOCATED AT

[(2)  To approve an expenditure in the amount of $5,375,000 for the purchase of real property located at 3600 Timberline Drive from Plano Independent School District; and authorizing the City Manager to execute all necessary documents. Approved]

GOOD EVENING COUNCIL. THIS IS THE SECOND ITEM REGARDING PURCHASE OF SURPLUS PISD PROPERTY TONIGHT.

FORMAN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL OPENED AROUND THE SAME TIME OF DAVIS ELEMENTARY, OVER 50 YEARS OF SERVICE TO THE CITY.

THIS CAMPUS IS LARGER 9.45 ACRES, HENCE THE LARGER PRICE THAT YOU SEE BEFORE YOU.

$5.35 I'M SORRY. $5,375,000. SIMILAR ZONING, SINGLE FAMILY ZONING DESIGNATED AS NEIGHBORHOODS ON THE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. THIS PARTICULAR PARCEL IS IDENTIFIED BY THE CITY TO RELOCATE FIRE STATION THREE IN THE FUTURE PROVIDED A FUTURE CONSTRUCTION BOND REFERENDUM PASSES. IN THE 2025 BOND REFERENDUM, THE VOTERS OF PLANO APPROVED PARTIAL FUNDING TO ACQUIRE THIS SITE AND ALSO TO BEGIN DESIGN WORK. THE REMAINING USE OF THE PROPERTY WILL REALLY FALL INTO PLACE ONCE WE HAVE THE SITE PLAN DONE FOR THAT FIRE STATION.

WE WANT THAT TO OPERATE OPTIMALLY, SO ONCE THAT FALLS INTO PLACE, WE'LL HAVE A BETTER SENSE OF WHAT COULD BE USED IN THE FUTURE.

AND AGAIN, I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE ON THIS ITEM. THANK YOU MATT. MARIA.

I HAVE NO QUESTIONS. I THINK IT'S A GREAT IDEA THAT WE YOU KNOW, WE BRING IN MORE ACREAGE THAT WE DON'T REALLY HAVE MANY OF IN PLANO AND PERHAPS UTILIZE THEM TO CREATE A BETTER ENVIRONMENT FOR OUR RESIDENTS.

SO WITH THAT IN MIND, I MOVE TO APPROVE THIS AGENDA ITEM.

OKAY, MR. MAYOR, WITH THE WITH THE RELOCATION OF FIRE STATION THREE, WHICH IS WOEFULLY INADEQUATE FOR TODAY'S EQUIPMENT AND LEAVES ADDITIONAL STRESS ON OUR FIREFIGHTERS IN THAT AREA.

THIS LAND PURCHASE MAKES SENSE FOR THE FUTURE USE OF A NEW FIRE DEPARTMENT.

SO I WOULD LIKE TO SECOND THAT MOTION FOR APPROVAL.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. I HAVE A MOTION AND A SECOND TO APPROVE ITEM NUMBER TWO.

PLEASE VOTE. THANK YOU. MOTION PASSES 8 TO 0.

THERE BEING NO FURTHER BUSINESS, THE MEETING IS ADJOURNED.
