A
Just
survey,
how
many
we
have
you
know
they're,
just
looking
at
maps
and
not
going,
you
know
to
see
myself
and
we
have
about
14
or
15
cold
storage,
places
of
the
decent
size
in
Laredo,
20,000
25,000
square
feet,
yeah
you
as
colder
than
the
big
ones,
they're
monsters,
but
but
there's
a
Thomas
moment,
but
any
others
on
that
we're
doing
the
signatures,
we're
executing
the
agreement
right
now
and
then
you
know
this
should
be
done.
What
are
the
actual
incentive
sets
that
are
being
offered
the.
A
Were
the
actual
rebates?
Are
incentives
involved
and
there's
really
just
one
incentive
economic
incentive
that
we
applied
to
the
company
and
that
is
they
would
get
their
taxes
rebated
from
the
city
that
would
be
whatever
taxes
are
assessed,
on
their
business,
personal
property,
their
equipment
and
so
forth
that
they
have
inside
the
facility,
the
saturated
property.
They
have
amenities
where
they
were
at
least
he
was
going
to
pay
the
taxes
anyway.
So
it
will
be
a
great
benefit
right,
and
so,
though,
that's
that's
the
main
thing.
A
E
A
A
A
E
A
A
E
A
A
A
And
I
think
we
can
align
those
many
say
you
know
it
actually
aligning
with.
We
don't
need
to
have
that
company
ain't.
We
just
need
to
know
what
industry
we're
incentivizing
and
how
it
fits
in
with
our
own
economic
thought
and
then
I
think
if
certainly
agrees
that
a
way
I
believe
we're
really
doing
for
economical
and
retargeting
industries,
and
you
don't
have
names
that
know
the
industry.
Please,
okay,
was
that
me.
Let
me
take
you
in
you:
bring
up
a.
A
A
A
Two
there's
nothing
confidential
here,
but
I
can
tell
you
that
the
last
two
months
on
our
bridges,
we
were
down
almost
40%
on
commercial
traffic,
39
and
38
the
last,
what
two
months
April
and
May
close
to
40
percent
on
commercial
traffic
numbers
right
and
then,
of
course,
we
know
this
month
is
too
early
to
tell,
but
just
through
three
or
four
days
of
this
month,
the
numbers
are
way
up
and
just
and
the
last
month
of
the
last
week
of
May,
the
numbers
were
up.
Also
I
mean
meat,
beef,
fat,
we're
still
down.
A
Billion
dollars
of
trade
with
China
last
year
right
and
we
did
like
500
million
with
France
and
those
are
these
numbers
right,
but
98%
of
our
traders
to
Whitman
so
but
that's
number
I
have
it's
about
50
percent
give
or
take
60
on
the
import
side,
so
the
armored
sector
baby
out
of
my
a
little
faded
so
of
the
factories
I
think
so
what
percentage
almost
follow?
The
last
reports
I've
read
and
that
was
only
yesterday-
was
that
everyone
does
it
every
law.
Major
manufacturing,
auto
manufacturing
plant
in
Mexico
is,
is
now
open.
A
I,
don't
know
about
all
the
parts
manufacturing
planters
there's
more
than
15
under
but
Howdy's
open,
VFW's,
Oakland,
GM's,
open
both
wagons
open
all
those
are
open
in
central
Mexico.
So
okay,
now
they're
all
within
it
at
what
capacity?
Well,
that's
a
good
question
and
then
the
question
is
what
kind
of
demand
do
they
have,
but
they
still
filling
past
orders
or
they're
gonna
feel
new
orders
from
the
US.
That's
right
now
part
our
sales
are
or
down
the
tubes.
So
it's.
A
So
that
means
all
the
daily
shoppers,
main-yard
people
etc.
They're,
not
they're,
not
be
you
know.
Most
of
them
are
not
cross
and
then
there's
a
lot
of
restrictions
going
into
Mexico
I
mean
just
for
common
sense.
Like
you
know,
nobody
is
going
to
they're
kind
of
peak
if
you
will
on
Torrance
in
terms
of
hope
it
19
we've
hit,
are
supposedly
they're
just
they're.
A
A
A
A
Know
probably
easily
double
digit
losses
on
toast
X
and
that's
part
of
it
review
the
drive
from
cities,
any
other
numbers
that
you
guys
want
to
know
that
I
don't
have
right
here.
I
could
I
can
get
for
you,
but
we're
from
the
airport.
For
several
weeks
we
were
just
running
one
slide
a
day:
one
American
flight.
Now
we're
back
to
I,
think
to
read
and
and
and
United
it
I,
don't
think
it's
back
yet.
My
may
have
changed
its
yesterday.
A
But
since
earlier
this
week
there's
didn't
know,
United
Allegiant
has
announced
they're
going
to
come
back
but
they're
not
back
yet,
and
then.
Lastly,
that's
like
to
Mexico
City,
we'll
have
to
start
addressing
that
maybe
next
month
or
so,
we
could
get
it
back
on
track,
but
we're
supposed
to
have
at
them.
A
A
A
Our
friend
United
our
Union
Pacific
and
kisi
cells,
and
they
move
a
lot
of
the
new
cars
that
are
finished.
You
know
we
move
parts
down
there,
the
cars
get
a
symbol
they
get
put
on
rail
and
I
get
moved
up
and
they
you
know,
and
that's
part
of
their.
You
know
for
revenue
as
well
moving
vehicle.
So
so
those.
A
Are
by
the
way,
our
obviously
our
hotel
hotel
is
way
down.
People
were
down
almost
40%
on
rooms,
but
we
weren't
that
office
brownfield
McAllen,
Corpus,
Christi
and
Santonio.
We
don't
have
a
huge
number
hotel,
but
at
least
we
took
a
little
silver
lining
from
that,
and
so
that's
what
the
numbers
I
have
further
the
local
economy.
A
E
A
A
A
A
A
A
Expenses
then
we'll
give
you
the
rest
of
it
on
a
reimbursement.
Show
me
your
receipt
way
and
the
big
cities
don't
and
the
counties
don't
have
to
do
that,
and
so
that
we
have
said
that
you
know
told
the
governor
and
offensive
that's
completely
unfair
way.
I
have
followed
legislation
for
the
next
so-called
cash
funding.
Thing
that
that
was.
Those
rules
would
not
be
in
place.
It's
too
late
to
change
them
now,
and
so,
therefore,
we
ended
up
getting
based
on
our
population
about
fifteen
million
dollars
and
we
got
three
million
up
front.
A
Don't
Santoni,
we've
got
191
million
dollars
and
everyone
has
suspended
by
December
30th
and
what's
the
percentage
of
probably
a
small
piece
of
it,
but
you
can
only
use
it
on
Toby
related
expenses.
You
can't
use
the
front,
budgeted
I
mean
budgeted
item
like
they.
We
can't
use
it
to
pay
the
custodians
of
City
Hall
or
pay
me
if
we
took
on
unbudgeted
expenses
like
policing
parks-
and
there
was
a
lot
more
time
for
police
extra
calls
for
fire
by
masking
gallons
and
extra
tests
for
the
Health
Department.
A
A
A
D
Sorry
I
was
just
gonna
actually
see
if
I
could
get
off
the
phone
not
see
if
I'm
not
asking
for
permission,
but
basically
I'm,
not
really
tracking
everything
that's
going
on
over
there
and
it
seems
just
to
be
an
informative
discussion
and
I.
Don't
know
if
there's
anything
really
actionable
that
that
needs
to
happen
right
now.
So
I
was
just
gonna
say
that
maybe
I'll
make
a
better
effort,
hopefully
for
the
next
meeting
to
be
there
in
person.
I
didn't
think
this
would
be
as
difficult
remotely
so
I'm.
D
A
D
It
was
just
me
I
was
I,
was
trying
to
unmute
just
just
for
that.
I
think
that
maybe
moving
forward
if
there
are
certain
things,
questions
involving
statistics
on
on
percentages
and
numbers
and
budgets,
and
things
like
that
I
mean
maybe
it's
just
since
all
the
social
distancing
and
lockdown
started
and
quarantines
I've
just
felt
a
little
bit
more
information
overload
and
I'm
getting
a
little
antsy
for
more
of
an
action
item.
Thing
I
think
a
lot
of
what's
discussed.
D
If
these
meetings
are
things
that
we
could
Google
or
you
know
very
gladly
share
any
articles
or
resources
or
information.
If
these
are
questions
that
are
gonna
come
up,
but
to
have
these
discussions
that
they're
just
discussions
and
I
just
I-
think
it's
just
because
I'm
having
a
harder
time
tracking
everything
that's
being
discussed
because
of
the
audio
feed
that
that
that's
probably,
why
a
little
bit
of
source
of
maybe
let's
call
it
a
frustration
of
mine
at
the
moment,
just
because
I'm
not
fully
able
to
engage
and
participate.
A
A
A
A
Okay,
we'll
move
on
to
number
three
discussion
possible
action
on
the
preference
of
were
able
to
you
Texas
Chapter
three
of
the
guideline,
so
everyone
was
emailed
a
copy
of
the
progress.
That's
been
made
so
far
in
the
380
agreement
and
then
those
of
us
here
there's
a
copy.
She
should
have
a
copy
in
front
of
you,
I
believe.
A
A
E
A
A
So
this
guideline,
I,
should
have
finished
for
you
finished
for
the
committee
to
review
or
at
least
discuss
next
meeting,
and
at
that
meeting
we
can,
you
know,
take
the
full
hour
if
the
Chairman
wants
to
do
that
and
I.
You
have
my
word
that
you'll
get
it
way
before
hand,
and
then
we
will
be
able
to
discuss
that
380
and
then
you
guys
can
make
recommendations
to
me
on
what
y'all
think
needs
to
be
fixed
or
what
you're
not
pleased
with
or
what
else
can
be
put
in
it,
and
you.
E
E
C
A
Them
to
review
it
just
see
if
it's,
if
it's
legal,
if
it
passes,
muster
there
and
at
that
point,
then
we
can
record
make
a
recommendation
to
the
council
and
go
hey.
This
is
the
e-tax
recommendation
to
the
top
to
the
council,
for
you
guys
to
adopt
these
are
the
guidelines
for
380s
going
forward
now.
I
know
that
we
went
through
I
know:
Julian
and
I
went
through
they.
A
E
A
A
A
A
A
A
B
A
A
Receiving
in
a
Mac
spec,
I'm
still
receiving
email,
I
received
my
last
one
from
how
celestial
path
what
other
city
is
doing
to
kind
of
find
out
that
these,
these
new
businesses
that
are
allowed
now
to
open
news
and
under
the
governor,
you
know
I,
would
be,
and
maybe
of
those
businesses
out,
so
they
can
maximize
their
their
retail.
You
know
because
a
lot
of
them
are
closed
down
by
their
capacity
yeah.
A
A
Let's
go
back
to
the
item
on
the
chapter.
380
Julian
have
some
good
points
to
make
the
read
some
of
the
research
and
just
even
formulating
the
380,
still
has
to
be
done
and
I'm
doing
that,
based
on
the
recommendations,
I
got
the
subcommittee
I
heard
their
chairman
today
when
I
finished,
when
I
have.
A
C
A
A
For
me
to
continue
working
on
the
three
and
then
when
I
get
a
first
finished
draft
to
send
it
to
the
subcommittee
that
worked
on
two
three
look
at
it.
At
the
same
time,
I'm
working
on
how
to
integrate
the
e-tag
into
those
recommendations
that
the
city
or,
though
those
points
of
the
City
Council,
asked
us
to
study
right.
A
A
D
D
I
had
made
a
comment
and
I'm
under
the
opinion
that
I
would
I
would
appreciate
if
it's
okay
with
tech
low,
if
he
guides
in
in
I,
don't
know,
guide
the
way
to
go,
but
if
he
sets
the
tone
for
the
meetings
or
or
but
at
least
lets
us
know
what
his
priorities
and
his
workload
is.
When
we're
considering
agenda
items
moving
forward,
because
the
big
ones
was,
which
is
what
he
discussed
in
integrating
the
task
force
with
the
e
deck,
and
so
we
might
all
have
these
ideas
of
what
needs
to
happen
to
better.
D
We
need
to
have
more
consistency,
because
we
only
get
an
hour
a
month,
and
a
lot
of
that
hour
is
spent
on
just
informing
ourselves
of
what's
going
on
and
not
being
able
to
really
move
forward
on
actionable
items
for
economic
development.
But
that's
just
my
observation:
I
just
wanted
to
throw
that
out
there,
and
so
so
I
did
it.
That
was
my
input
and
the
email
exchanges
before
this
meeting
in
regards
to
agenda
items
for
this
meeting.
Thank
you.
