ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE 090822 MEETING
A
A
A
C
D
C
C
The
committee
you
all
selected,
who
would
be
a
good
candidate
and
then
from
there
you're,
going
to
be
the
top
six
candidates,
the
top
six
foreign
candidates
and
those
two,
the
top
two
remaining
were
then
were
suggested
to
the
city
manager.
At
that
time
for
their
interviews,
it
seems
like
a
solid
process
that
this
committee
has
and
we
can
help
you
and
any
changes
that
you
want
to
make.
We
can
certainly
do
it.
There
were
some
discussions.
C
There
was
some
work
to
us
saying
that
they
wanted
this
course
card
to
be
changed
a
little
bit.
You'll
all
certainly
have
that
freedom.
To
do
that,
I
have
a
copy
of
it
here.
It's
been
provi
provided
to
this
committee
as
well.
If
there's
anything
else,
that's
judged
us
to
do.
We
certainly
can
do
that.
Also
on
the
interviewing
questions,
it's
also
been
provided
to
this
committee.
You
often
have
the
freedom
to
look
at
it
and
tell
us
how
y'all
would
like
to
handle
it.
C
F
So
they
were
just
provided
a
number
and
I
believe
it
was
their
person
id
number
from
their
application
and
that's
how
they
were
scored
based
on
the
memorization
that
they
had
and
then
the
subcommittee
reviewed
all
applications
that
had
been
referred
and
narrowed
them
down
to
bring
to
the
full
committee
top
ten.
I.
C
That
had
come
through
and
we're
there
at
this
point
right
now,
we've
already
there
is
a
a
pool
of
candidates
that
have
met
the
mental
qualifications
of
the
position
they've
already
they
will
be
contacted
and
asked.
Are
you
still
interested
in
the
position
if
the
ones
that
we
have
qualified
as
of
today
and
and
she
and
carol
was
going
to
check
with
staff
just
to
make
sure
that
we've
already
reached
out
to
all
those
candidates
to
see?
C
Do
you
still
wish
to
be
in
the
pool
once
they
do
that
we
can
certainly
provide
that
list
or
to
this
committee?
If
the
committee
wishes
to
keep
them
the
names
blanked
out
again,
as
y'all
did
the
last
time,
my
recommendation
would
be
to
be
just
that
you're
you're
you're,
writing
them.
Based
on
the
responses
on
the
qualifications
of
physician.
C
C
Once
you
select
those
top
six
top
ten
people
that
you
all
want
to
talk
to,
then
they
come
in
and
you
interview
them
and
you
ask
the
questions
and
it's
the
same
questions.
They
just
asked
of
all
the
candidates
and
you're
evaluating
the
responses
on
there.
You
evaluate
them
on
their
responses
to
the
committee
and
what
you
were
looking
for
as
a
director.
D
F
D
G
D
F
F
C
The
job
descriptions
more
tailored
to
economic
development.
It
was
more
broad
at
the
last
posting
because
more
business
administration,
type
of
education
now,
the
previous
interim
city
manager,
he
never
be
tightened
up
to
to
only
pick
up
economic
development,
experience
and
education
in
that
in
that
room.
F
And
in
the
interview
questions,
we
also
have
the
copies
of
the
last
interview,
questions
that
were
created.
There
were
questions
that
were
already
detailed
and
then
there
were
spaces
available
for
the
committee
to
also
ask
those
questions,
but
they
we
just.
We
strongly
suggested
that
the
questions
remain
the
same
across
the
board
for
all
the
candidates
that
there
weren't
different
questions.
H
H
And
I
think
that
was
one
of
the
challenges
that
his
previous
committee
member
had
that
some
candidates,
for
some
reason
were
being
asked
specific
questions,
you're
kind
of
probe
to
to
respond,
and
then
the
others
weren't.
So
I
strongly
suggest
that
if
we
move
forward,
we
continue
with
the
recommendation
of
our
hrt.
G
D
C
That
is
what
we
have
to
present
to
this
committee
and
again
I
I
tell
you
all
that
we're
on
the
same
team
here
we
want
to
get
the
best
candidate
here
to
fill
that
role,
so
we
will
work
with
you.
Is
there
if
there's
anything,
we'll
leave
the
documents
here
for
you,
you
tell
us
what
you
know.
What
is
it
that
you
want
the
scorecard
to
look
like
what
is
the
interview
questions
john
expand
tight
enough
depending
on
what
you
know
what
this
committee
envisions
as
a
future
leader
we're
certainly
there
to
guide
you.
C
H
D
G
D
C
We
can
work
as
fast
as
this
committee
wants
us
to
work
once
you
develop
your
subcommittee
once
you
look
at
your
score
court
scorecard
and
tell
us
how
you
want
it
tailored.
We
are
going
to
be
that
armed
to
you
all
once
you
say
we
want
this
people,
it's
going
to
be
it's
going
to
fall
back
on
us
to
coordinate
that
meeting
arrangement
for
you
all
so
we're
here
to
help
you
all
with
that.
C
B
G
F
So
when
it
was,
it
was
tasked
through
hr,
so
it
was
myself
involved
with
the
with
the
feedback
committee
and
the
subcommittee,
so
I
was
involved
through
all
the
process
of
applications
evaluating
them
interviews
all
the
way
to
the
I
know,
the
the
prior
hr
director.
She
was
involved
from
the
interview
part
moving
forward
because
she.
F
B
C
A
Questions,
I
think,
that's
how
we
handled
the
last
time
is.
We
had
a
so
in
the
presence
of
time
we
had
a
subcommittee
that
essentially
did
the
initial
scorecard
that
met
and
by
the
following
meeting
we
had.
We
worked
with
hr
to
set
up
the
actual
general
interview
with
the
candidates
that
were
charging
so.
D
H
C
That's
exactly
what
we
want
to
do.
Okay,
make
sure
that
all
of
you,
okay,
you
want
all
your
candidates
to
be
treated
fairly
and
they're.
You
know
the
same
opportunity,
so
what
we're
going
to
do?
Everybody
will
be
treated
the
same
way:
no
one's
going
to
give
them
preferential
treatments
or
she
would
be
the
contact
and
her
staff
will
be
that
direct
liaison
with
the
candidates
and
the
committee,
so
she's
bridging
both
areas
together.
Okay,.
C
D
C
There
was
gonna,
be
a
review,
I'm
not
sure
who
had
mentioned
it,
that
they
wanted
to
take
a
look
at
the
scorecard.
So
your
subcommittee
will
review
that
and
see
if
you
like
what
was
presented
last
time,
you
don't
want
to
tailor
it.
You
want
to
change
it.
You
certainly
have
that
freedom
to
do
that.
Yeah.
H
H
G
Ray
you
can
jump
in
at
any
time
it,
so
it
was
kind
of
very
informal
and
we
don't.
We
didn't
know
who
was
going
to
connect
us,
but
it
was
informal
that
we
were
going
to
get
connected
at
such
hour
and
so
several
of
us
connected
and
then
george.
We
were
looking
for
george,
and
so
he
called
the
phone,
and
actually
he
was
the
only
one
that
gave
questions,
because
we
did
all
this
already
so
so
we
were.
G
G
A
H
G
E
Former
congressman
mentioned
like
well,
one
of
the
questions
was
when
one:
where
can
you?
What
would
you
change
or
how
would
you
change
downtown?
I
think
that's
pretty
broad.
I
think
I
don't
think
it's
a
problem
for
maybe
someone
coming
in
to
really
go
into
depth
if
they
can
about
what
they've
seen
in
other
cities
or
cities
they've
worked
in
and
how
they've
been
able
to
really
change
the
infrastructure
downtown
to
rejuvenate
it
right
to
give
it
that
little
bit
of
an
injection
that
it
needs.
E
So
I
don't
know
if
that
question
is
something
that
we
kind
of
want
to
revisit,
just
because
it's
pretty
broad
and
it's
kind
of
difficult
to
really
say
how
you
can
or
want
to
change
an
entire
area,
a
huge
area
of
downtown
in
kind
of
one
word,
but
if
they
can
go
into
greater
depth
about
what
they've
seen
in
other
places
how
they
can
potentially
bring
it
here,
I
think
that
would
be
really
beneficial.
Obviously,
downtown
is
an
area
that
needs
a
lot
of
work.
H
E
About
the
discussion
about
what
he
does
in
the
subcommittee,
but
no
problem,
I
was
just
thinking,
I
think
those
are
all
good
questions
that
I'll
build
or
brought
up.
I
just
think
that
you
know
if
we're
going
to
add
something
to
where
you,
how
do
you?
What
do
you
like?
What
do
you
want
to
do
as
far
as
what
can
you,
what
do
you
think
of
downtown
and
what
it
needs?
I
think
we
need
just
a
little
bit
more
insight
a
little
bit
more
depth
about
how
how
we're
able
to
do
that.
A
H
I
I
was
mr
chairman,
I
was
hoping
that
you
would
present
us
with
the
scoring
all
the
individuals
from
the
highest
to
the
lowest
just
give
us
those
names
sometime
in
early
october,
okay,
so
that
I
could
review
that
with
the
rest
of
the
management
team
upstairs
and
then
make
a
decision,
and
hopefully,
thanks
to
you
when
you
mentioned
too
to
us
that
october
1st
was
really
short.
So
thank
you
for
that,
because
it's
obvious,
I
hope
to
have
a
new
person.
I
I
Mr
chairman,
I
want
you
to
take
your
time,
have
as
many
subcommittee
meetings
as
you
feel
you
need
to
have
to
where
you
have
a
very
nice
balanced
question,
set
up
questions
that
ask
specific
questions
about
their
work,
history
and
whatever
it
is
that
you
need
to
find
out
because
ultimately,
at
the
end
of
the
day,
we
do
check
work
history
as
well
through
the
hr
department
to
find
out.
You
know
where
they've
been
and
all
of
that
stuff.
G
D
H
In
a
better
position
we
have
more
experience.
Yes
and
the
other
thing
is
the
last
meeting.
We
only
had
allegedly
three
candidates
and
it
was
just
in
the
process
of
being
pushed
out
and
said.
Well,
let's
see
what
else
comes
in
three
candidates,
not
a
bad
thing,
but
I
think
hr
was
just
in
the
process
of
sending
it
out
for
national
surgery.
I
I
It's
still
open
as
we
speak,
we're
not
closing
it
until
the
subcommittee
is
comfortable
with
the
sets
of
questions.
I'd
like
to
sit
with
the
subcommittee-
and
I
wanted
to
see
how
you
all
felt
I
kind
of
like
being
to
fly
in
the
room
kind
of
thing
and
just
kind
of
sit,
the
back
and
watch
because
ultimately,
I'm
going
to
have
to
be
the
one
working
directly
with
that
director
and
I
I'd
like
to
see
the
chemistry
as
well.
I
won't
get
in
you.
I
J
Think
we
encourage
it.
I
think
it
would
be
very
good
because
yeah
there's
got
to
be
that
chemistry.
At
the
end
of
the
day
you
all
are
going
to
be
working
with
them.
We
only
recommend
right.
We
only
make
at
the
end
of
the
day.
It's
you
all
that
make
the
decision,
and
that's
where
I
was
going,
we're
offering
the
input
of
the
committee.
I
It
is
a
city
directorship,
the
only
one
that
has
the
authority
to
hire
and
fire
a
director
is
the
city
manager
and
so
ultimately,
she's
delegated
that
to
to
need
a
head
up,
because
the
economic
development
director
will
work
under
me,
and
so
she,
just
at
the
end
of
the
day,
wants
to
meet
the
finalists
prior
to
to
making
her
final
decision.
Because
again
the
chemistry
has
to
work
out
too.
I
Above
me
right
so
so,
ultimately,
I
was
just
wondering-
and
I
asked
hr
kind
of-
should
I
just
step
back
completely
and
let
you
all
just
bring
us
the
list
in
order
of
how
they're
scored
or
can
I
or
should
I
just
sit
in
a
corner
because
we'll
probably
do
it
in
council
chambers
to
give
us
some
space
and
just
sit
back
and
watch.
Hr's
told
me
that
there's
no
conflict
in
me
doing
that,
but
I
don't
want
to
disrupt
what
you
have
going
on.
A
So
if
I
can
sum
up
where
we're
at
we're
kind
of
working
on
two
different
things,
we
have
the
scorecard
which,
if
I'm
understanding
correctly
from
the
subcommittee,
is
good
correct
right.
So
so
the
only
thing
and-
and
thank
you
for
pointing
that
out,
we
shouldn't
discuss
the
questions
in
this
meeting-
is
that
it
becomes
public
if
the
subcommittee,
if
you
guys
like
you,
can
meet
tomorrow
or
next
week
on
polishing
out
and
making
sure
those
are
good.
D
G
J
J
D
A
A
Any
opposed
motion
carries
so
so
now
we
can
discuss
on
what
we
want
to
schedule
with
what
so
the
subcommittee
meeting
that
does
the
scorecard
that
in
itself
can
that
doesn't
have
to
be
a
posted
item.
So
are
we
deciding
that
we
want
to
do
everyone
doing
the
scorecard
and
doing
a
special
meeting
for
that
also
or
these
last
time
we
didn't
do
that,
for
the
sake
of
time,.
I
A
D
G
F
H
E
F
F
If
there's
questions
that
were
utilized
at
the
last
interview
that
you
want
to
remove
and
add,
I
know
I
I
heard
that
there's
like
four
additional
questions
that
want
to
be
asked
during
the
interviews.
Then
you
know
we
can
review
them
and
just
ensure
that
there's
not
going
to
be
any
conflict
of
what
the
question
may
be.
I
D
I
Unique
work,
history
and
we
need
to
be
able
to
ask
the
questions
of
our
candidates
pointed
back
to
work
history
in
an
effort
to
be
fair,
to
know
more
about
the
candidate.
I
know
please
let
me
know,
would
they
be
stepping
out
about
to
ask
any
pointed
questions?
That's
something
that
they
see
on
a
resume.
That
needs
clarification
just
asking,
because
if
they
need
to
be
able
to
have
access
to
find
out
as
much
as
they
want
on
the
candidate
to
be
able
to
score
them
properly,.
H
I
I
So
the
questions
are
not
the
same
because
he
didn't
go
through
that
per
se
and
I'm
just
saying,
based
on
trying
to
be
fair
and
trying
to
find
out
about
your
candidate
because
a
lot
of
times-
and
I
know
I've
applied
for
positions
before
and
we
say
certain
things
right,
because
that's
what
we
try
to
say
the
truth
and
we
want
to
be
very.
We
want
to
be
open
and
transparent
and
sell
ourselves,
and
sometimes
there
may
be
something
within
that.
Others
may
want
to
suppress
or
hide
and
pro
and
maybe
not
fully
disclosed.
I
H
G
H
Here's
my
experience
with
hiring,
so
we
usually
do
three
sets
of
interviews
if
you
made
so
you
do
your
preliminary
subcommittee
usually,
does
your
interview
make
sure
it
works
with
your
hr
department?
And
then
you
have
your
secondary
group,
which
is,
let's
go
out
to
lunch
and
that's
pretty
much
the
people
that
you're
going
to
be
working
day
in
day
out.
H
That
includes
from
the
executive
to
the
staff
members
that
are
going
to
participate
and
be
working
hand
in
hand
with
this
person
and
then
the
final
one
is
obviously
in
our
cases
lunch
with
the
president
or
some
final
committee
members.
That's
your
last
cohort.
That's
going
to
be
also
dealing
with
this
individual
and
at
that
point
all
processes
are
scored,
and
then
you
have
a
totality
of
information.
H
And
yes,
the
final
decision
is
done
by
the
director
or
the
president,
but
in
the
most
part
it
has
worked
very
very
well
because
you
allow
participation
through
it
through
and
then
no
one
in
the
process
can
say.
Well,
you
chose
him.
You
chose
him,
I
get
a
chance
and
it's
not
working
and
I've
seen
the
best
results,
because
I've
also
seen
how
the
day-to-day
operations,
people
that
work
with
individuals
see
some
things
that
even
us
excavate
executives
miss
because
we
don't
see
what
the
day-to-day
operations
team
member
does
just
a
little
food
for
that.
I
H
A
I
don't
think
we
should
leave
these
out
because
I
think
there's
two
aspects
to
this
interview
and
it's
the
technical
and
then
there's
the
question
led.
So
I
guess
the
major
question
is:
are
we
combining
then
this
with
the
general
interview?
Because
I
you
don't
need
the
kind
of
in
front
of
you
to
answer
this?
It's
in
the
resume.
A
F
F
F
Was
other
questions
that
were
asked?
There
were
not
necessarily
required
questions,
but
it
was
questions
that
the
subcommittee
one
was
putting
as
a
way
of
I
would
want
somebody
who's
by
laying
the
wall,
and
there
are
certain
questions
that
are
based
on
the
bottom,
because
I
think
we
have
some
campuses.
F
For
the
position,
which
has
been
said
already
by
hr,
correct
and
so
based
on
how
what
criteria
they
had
that's
how
they
were
ranked
highest
to
lowest
the
ones
that
had
them
with
the
higher
scores
or
the
ones
that
went
for
interviews
for
the
whole
committee
itself.
So
that
was
just
the
purpose
of
the
matrix.
It's
kind
of.
D
J
A
A
J
D
A
So
so,
if
I
this
is
my
recommendation,
I'd
like
to
hear
from
everyone
is
that
we,
since
this
is
more
just
technical
and
just
scoring
the
facts
that
they've
provided
to
us.
I
don't
see
why
this
cannot
just
be
a
subcommittee
that
meets
and
hammers
this
out
so
that
we
can
be
prepared
to
interview
at
our
next
meeting
since
we
we'd
like
to
have
another
subcommittee
review
the
questions,
so
we
would,
we
would
have
this
done
on
the
five
members
score
it
with
the
subcommittee
and
then
on
october.
D
A
G
A
F
So
then,
what
they
can
do
is
they
can
rank
them,
bring
them
to
the
full
committee
and
then
the
whole
committee
can
determine
whether
they
want
to
go
with
a
certain
ranking
number
or
the
committee
can
vote
on.
Let's
just
interview,
everybody:
it's
going
to
be
really
ultimately
up
to
the
full
committee.
Who
is
going
to
go
to
that
interview
phase.
F
H
B
A
A
D
F
A
D
J
H
H
F
D
F
D
D
J
H
F
We'll
schedule
a
location
here
so
that
you
all
can
show
up
it's
just
the
finders
with
the
information
so
that
you
can
do
your
ranking
and
then
from
the
subcommittee.
Just
what
we
can
do
for
the
subcommittee
on
the
matrix
is
updated
based
on
the
current
qualifications
and
and
the
subcommittee
can
determine
whether
they
still
want
to
keep
the
last.
F
F
A
Okay,
so
let
me
amend
my
motion
to
just
encompass
everything
we
just
discussed
so
my
and
I'm
going
to
need
you
to.
Second,
it's
just
second
five.
So
my
motion
is
for
the
subcommittee
to
meet
and
rank
all
five
individuals
september
14th
at
what
time
or
I
guess
no,
that's
up
to
you
guys
so
something
so
I'll
so
just
for
the
subcommittee
to
meet
and
rank
the
five
individuals
that
applied.
A
A
It's
up
to
you
guys
to
schedule
it's
anytime
next
week,
for
you
guys,
I'm
leaving
that
out
since
it's
a
subcommittee
decision,
so
the
only
dates
that
are
in
the
motion
are
for
the
21st
and
the
22nd
and
those
are
for
the
actual
inter
interviews,
but
when
it
comes
to
the
ranking
of
the
five
and
anyone
else
that
applies
before
sunday.
That's
up
to
you
and
the
subcommittee
to
schedule
for
any
time.
Next
week.
G
A
A
All
those
in
favor
okay
motion
passes.
So
I'm
gonna
move
to
item
a
presentation
by
kate
kavanagh
government
sector
executive
from
team
housing
solutions,
a
company
that
is
finding
binding
with
the
united
states
federal
government
department
of
health
and
human
services
to
develop
a
program
and
build
a
facility
that
will
be
located
in
webb,
county,
texas
and
the
city
of
laredo
for
the
services
of
children
between
the
ages
of
13
through
17,
which
will
include
education,
relocation
and
health.
M
Hello,
everyone
I'm
actually
going
to
step
in
for
kate.
This
is
mandy
cavanaugh,
I'm
the
ceo
of
team,
housing
solutions
and
the
founder,
and
I
I
wouldn't
call
that
we're
going
to
do
a
presentation,
I
would
just
say
a
very
quick
briefing.
I
know
that
you're
an
hour
into
this
meeting.
We
don't
want
to
take
up
too
much
more
of
your
time.
So
my
goal
is
to
kind
of
be
done
with
my
my
commentary
in
about
three
or
four
minutes
somewhere
in
there
and
I'd
like
to
just
answer
any
questions
that
I
can.
M
First
and
foremost,
let
me
just
say
thank
you
to
ellia,
because
she
is
I've
really
gotten
to
know
her
the
last
year
and
she's.
So
aware
of
the
dynamic
you
know
under
currents,
all
the
things
that
are
going
on
internationally
federally
state
and
local,
and
she
has
a
way
of
bridging
synergies
together.
That
is
unique
and
I
appreciate
where
her
apartment
is
and
think
she
does
things
seemingly
for
the
right
reasons.
I
really
value
her
and
thank
you
for
setting
this
up.
M
M
Moved
the
company
over
to
where
we
had
lived
before
and
what
we
do
is
we
have
seven
different
business
models,
but
primarily
it's
for
the
most
part.
Most
of
our
business
is
oil
and
gas.
It's
it's
federal
government,
it's
department
of
defense
and,
and
now
it's
more
recently
we're
working
with
nonprofits
and
what
we
provide
is
large-scale
and
small-scale
international
logistics
for
facilities
for
lodging.
M
So,
if
you're,
a
group
that
needs
a
group
of
hotel
rooms
in
africa
or
a
large
facility
for
a
group
of
children
or
whatever
it
is
government
workers,
we
can
provide
that
most
of
our
properties
that
we
manage
are
all
currently
in
the
state
of
texas
and,
like
I
said,
they're
oil
and
gas
and
also
government
facilities.
So
we
are
not
the
prime
contractor
on
this
effort.
M
Some
of
you
may
know
a
lot
about
this
requirement.
It's
a
health
and
human
services
requirement.
There
are
a
lot
of
companies
that
have
formed
teams
to
to
come
together
to
try
to
meet
the
demand
of
what
is
a
very
complex
scope
of
work
in
order
to
deliver
the
services
in
a
safe
and
humane
way.
So
we
are
among
one
of
those
teams
that
are
going
to
respond
to
this
multi-award
requirement
by
health
and
human
services
and
our
our
key
partner
jacqueline.
M
M
We
sometimes
try
to
put
things
on
shore
power
depending
on
what
what
infrastructure
is
available
on
the
property.
Our
specialty
in
the
past
has
been
to
convert
existing
properties
and
turn
them
into
a
rejuvenated
revitalized,
commercial
solution
for
our
clients.
So,
for
example,
in
the
lato
on
the
south
side,
we
down
there
on
an
entire
83
or
we
were
asked
to
build
a
base
camp
for
the
texas
military
department.
We
did
that
for
the
national
guard.
It
was
an
old
manufacturing,
a
mobile
home
manufacturing
facility.
M
We
converted
we
used
every
structure
that
was
on
the
space
and
we,
except
for
the
weather
we
had
to
truck
in
water,
and
we
eventually
got
on
city
water.
So
that's
an
example
of
what
we
do
we're
familiar
with
with
economic
development.
The
goals
that
you
have,
I
grew
up,
my
dad
was
always
on
city
council.
I
worked
for
the
county.
I've
been
involved
in
economic
development
in
new
braunfels
and
you
know,
but
we
also
value
learning
and
we
specific.
M
We
know
that
we
don't
know
what
your
goals
specifically
are
and
so
we're
very
interested
in
how
our
our
fulfilling
our
commercial
requirements
can
be
overlaid
on
your
goals
for
synergy
synergistic
results.
So
what
we'd
like
this
to
be
is
an
opening
to
a
dialogue
and
to
hear
from
you
about
any
help.
We
can
be
to
meet
your
goals
for
economic
development.
Let
me
go
ahead
and
launch
into
that
requirement.
Real,
quick,
so
we're
going
to
need
goods
and
services
and
we
need.
We
do
need
local
jobs.
M
We
do
need
local
local
workers
and
I
can
only
speak
for
the
workers
that
would
be
providing
labor
and
administration
and
management
to
the
to
the
hard
assets,
not
the
soft
assets
necessarily-
and
so
I
just
want
to
talk
a
little
bit
about
that
this
by
no
means
this
is
far
from
a
formal
impact
study.
What
I'm
about
to
go
through
with
you,
but
it's
kind
of
anecdotal-
and
it
also
like
I
said,
is
a
dynamic
situation,
but
our
estimates
on
the
first
month
for
providing
these
these
assets.
M
It
would
be
approximately
two
and
a
half
million
of
total
local
spend
that's
hotels,
that's
120,
temporary
staff,
that's
construction,
small,
small
construction,
subcontractors,
food
services,
it's
hotels,
it's
meals,
local
meals.
We
buy
a
lot
of
things
from
hardware
stores.
We
do
try
to
use
true
values
and
avoid
the
big
boxes,
but
sometimes
it
cannot
be
held.
But
it's
really
whatever's
closer
to
be
totally
candid
and
they
go
out
of
stock,
and
then
you
go
down
the
street
so
there's
just
a
lot.
M
Probably
a
quarter
of
a
million
in
the
first
month
spent
in
those
types
of
retail
environments,
so
we're
not
just
creating
the
jobs
on
site,
we're
actually
driving
up
demand
for
products
and
services
locally.
That
requires
those
retailers
to
step
up
their.
They
move
more
volume
to
the
stores
and
I
think
what
that
helps
do
as
we
spend
money
on
goods
and
services
in
laredo
with
national
and
regional
chains,
is
that
it
it
puts
laredo
even
more
and
more,
as
you
know,
a
heat
map
of
where
the
action
is
it
helps.
I
guess.
M
Hopefully
this
is
beneficial
to
you
as
an
economic
development
group
too.
You
know
it
flares
the
radio
up
on
that
heat
map
of
where
our
business
service
is
being
moved
and
so
bigger
national
credit
stores
and
things,
and
maybe
it
helps
the
local
and
regional
as
well.
So
again,
this
is
just
you
know,
you
could
argue
there
are
downsides
to
that,
but
I
think
it's
mostly
upside
we've
done
a
lot.
M
A
lot
of
spend
in
del
rio,
for
example,
it's
a
smaller
town
and
I've,
been
able
to
look
at
that
project
that
we
started
in
october
there
and
the
fact
that
we
buy
out
most
of
our
stuff
locally
and
hire
locally,
and
I
think
overall,
it's
been
a
really.
I
try
to
look
at
it
in
the
360
way
and
I
think
overall,
it's
been
very,
very
beneficial
to
the
town,
I'm
open
to
any
questions
on
that
may
not
be
able
to
answer
that
month.
M
M
Something
in
common-
and
that
is
that
we
typically
end
up
hiring
about
50
to
60
percent
locally,
and
I'm
going
to
talk
not
about
medical
and
teachers
and
things
like
that.
There's
legal
services
and
things,
that's
something
that
we
would
have
to
talk
to
southwest
key
about
as
they
developed
their
roster
of
professionals.
But
what
we
hire
is
mostly
service-based.
It's
semi-skilled
it's
carpentry!
It's
you
know
the
propane
companies,
the
the
fuel
companies
we
all
of
our
site,
prep
and
gravel
everything
the
site,
prep
company.
M
All
of
these
people
are
from
laredo
that
we
used
on
our
radio
facility,
all
the
we
redid
all
the
light
towers.
The
electricity,
the
internet
company
was
obviously
local,
but
all
the
parking
you
name
it
as
far
as
the
infrastructure,
the
plumbing
everything
was
done
locally.
It
was
done
by
local
contractors,
so
I
think
it
was
a
blessing
to
them
overall.
M
So
I
just
want
to
kind
of
one
more
thing
I
want
to
say
is
that
what
we've
noticed
in
our
projects
is
when
we
go
into
a
location
because
it
is
federal
or
state
requirements.
As
far
as
performance,
you
take
people
that
come
in,
for
maybe
what
might
be
an
entry-level
job,
it
might
be
lower
management,
it
might
be
middle
management,
but
no
matter
what
there's
an
opportunity
for
mobile
upward
mobility,
because
there's
a
huge
demand
for
it,
so
they
learn
training
on
the
job.
They
learn
how
to
follow
checklist.
M
They
get
a
lot
of
structure.
They
get
management
experience,
whether
it's
managing
tasks.
Many
projects
like
I
need
you
to
convert
this.
You
know
grass
into
a
you
know:
caliche.
You
know
all
these
kinds
of
little
projects
and
they
get
more
and
more
responsibility.
We
had
a
girl
that
was
working
at
whataburger.
She
was,
she
was
doing
janitorial
there
she's
running
one
of
our
shifts
now
she's
being
promoted
to
entry
level
management.
I
mean
it's
just
really.
M
I
love
those
stories
so
when
they
leave
the
proper
the
project
which
I
don't
know
when
that
will
be-
and
I
hope
I
don't
get
asked
because
I'll
give
you
some
I'll,
give
you
I'll.
Just
tell
you,
I
don't
know,
but
I
don't
even
have
any
way
of
estimating
it
when
they
do
leave
the
project.
They'll
leave
with
more
skills
and
training
under
their
belt
and
more
responsibility
at
that
kind
of
that
it's
a
really
fast
pace.
M
It's
a
fast
tempo
and
anyway,
there's
just
a
big
opportunity
for
for
learning
on
these
jobs
that
I
think
enriches
the
people
that
that
work
there
for
what
they
do
afterwards
and
I'll
just
leave
it
at
that
and
open
the
floor
to
any
questions
that
I
may
be
able
to
answer,
and
if
I
can't
I'll
try
to
get
back
to
you.
Yes,
I.
M
L
Have
you
ever
done
any
downtown?
You
know
abandoned
building
housing
projects
and
and
specifically
like
mixed
use,
rather
mixed
market,
I'm
sorry
mixed
market
and
and
mixed
use.
Sure
yeah
where,
where
you
know
you're
doing
housing
for
a
variety
of
economic,
you
know
levels
and
with
an
offering
a
variety
of
commercial,
retail
and
housing.
M
M
That
said,
we
have
managed
properties
that
are
like
that
and
would
be
open
to
something
like
that.
A
term
caterage
facility
and
we've
we've
now
helped
convert
to
facilities
that
were
used
for
other
purposes,
into
workforce
housing
and
by
that
in
commercial
facilities.
We've
taken
apartment
complexes
and
converted
them
into
logic.
You
know
overnight,
lodging
like
run
them
like
a
hotel,
but
as
far
as
a
like
the
manufacturing
plant
or
an
rv
park
or
other
types
of
facilities
we
could.
We
could
help
facilitate
turning
that
into
lodging
or
mixed
use.
M
L
Some
public
participation,
yeah
and
absolutely
in
in
laredo.
We
have,
I
would
venture
a
guess
conservatively,
you
know,
60
of
our
downtown
buildings
are
vacant.
Some
of
them
are
abandoned
in
by
by
all
accounts,
and
such
was
the
case
with
the
hotel
hamilton
back
in
the
day
which
the
city
acquired
and
then
through
the
department
of
housing
and
grants,
etc,
was
able
to
essentially
lease
it
to
a
a
company.
L
You
know
put
money
in
and,
of
course,
they're
able
to
get
their
money
back
out.
Well,
one
of
the
models
I've
I've
seen
being
used
is
like
a
chapter
380
agreement
where
the
city
buys
set
buildings,
sells
it
to
an
outfit
like
yourself,
hypothetically
for
a
dollar,
but
with
the
condition
that
you
know
you
put
a
minimum
of.
You
know
x
amount
of
dollars
back
in
to
to
fit
it
for
a
particular
purpose.
With
you
know,
fees
waived
utilities
delivered
tax
abatements
in
place
to
incentivize
that
specific
type
of
growth
and
the.
L
A
a
a
comprehensive
plan,
some
four
or
five
years
ago,
that
said:
hey,
we
gotta
get
housing
going
on
in
the
downtown.
That's
where
it's
needed,
if
we're
ever
going
to
bring
our
our
downtown
back,
but
we've
yet
to
really
put
in
place
policies
that
would
incentivize
an
investor
to
come
in
with
that
type
of
a
project,
and
so
I
just
throw
that
out
there
that
perhaps
keep
an
open
mind.
I
know
this
is
concerned
about
finding
some
sort
of
creative
way
to
revitalize
our
downtown.
L
M
I
would
love
to
talk
further
about
that,
and
my
mind
goes
to
things,
I'm
a
solutions,
person
and
I
get
criticized
for
going
straight
to
a
solution
too
fast,
the
opposite
of
a
bureaucrat
and
it
drives
people
crazy,
but
I
I'm
a
part
of
some
groups
out
of
washington
d.c
and
they
it's
like
come
on
guys.
Let's
just
get
some
solutions.
M
So
my
solution
for
that,
probably
you
could
poke
a
bunch
of
holes
in
it,
is
to
take
something
and
turn
it
into
workforce
housing
and
let
the
the
money
that's
coming
in
from
these
agencies
run
that
money
through
the
the
project
and
when
the
when
there's
a
diminishing
of
the
need
for
workforce
housing,
now
you've
converted
over
into
fill
in
the
blank
kind
of
housing.
But
you've
got
this.
This
kind
of
captive
audience
right
now
happening.
You
know
lots
of
interagency
and
law
enforcement,
and
I
mean
just.
M
So
that's
one
thing
that
just
off
the
top
of
my
head,
I
can
see
happening
with
it.
I
know
you
need
something
now
you
know
probably
so
it's
like
how
much
of
a
priority
is
affordable,
housing
versus
just
getting
something
built
and
getting
the
money
running
through
it
to
cover
the
cost
of
it,
so
that
it's
a
long-term
logic
solution
downtown
and
then
everybody
that's
living
there
is
putting
their
per
game
into
that
that
neighborhood
so
anyway,
those
are
just
thoughts.
M
M
D
M
A
Thank
you
so
much
today,
for
the
sake
of
time,
we'll
try
to
be
as
brief
as
possible
on
this
one
update
with
discussion
and
possible
action
from
edek
nec
sub
community
regarding
status,
review,
proposed
changes
and
amendments
to
the
current
city
of
laredo,
ndc
policy
and
any
other
matters
incident.
There
too.
A
This
this
can
be
rewritten,
according
to
the
the
city
of
laredo's
legal,
on
how
they'd
like
to
write
that,
but
when
what
that
is
in
reference
to
is
not
necessarily
that
they
legally
cannot
tear
down,
but
if
they're
not
gonna
check
to
see
if
that
building,
which
is
50
years
plus,
if
it's
not
historic,
then
they
cannot
qualify
for
this
incentive.
That
was
the
point
of
that
language.
So
we
left
that
in
there
it
can
be
changed
how
the
city
would
like
it
to
read,
but
we
couldn't
figure
it
out.
A
We
don't
john-
and
I
don't
are
not
attorneys,
but
that
was
the
point
of
that
section.
There,
the
city,
also
on
incentives
available
in
any
z,
multi-family
development
projects,
five
or
more
units.
The
response
from
the
city
was
that
was
not
correct,
but
they
were
incorrect.
So
a
multi-family
development
is
more
than
four
units.
They
were
saying
it
was
four
or
more,
which
is
not
correct.
So
we
left
that,
as
is
a
commercial
up
to
five
thousand
square
feet.
Maximum
that
was
item.
A
J
A
A
A
A
K
Yes,
for
the
record
planning
director
yeah
we've
come
across
some
redevelopments
and
right
now,
if,
if
you
have
a
piece
of
property
that
that
is,
has
been
opened
and
somebody
comes
in
to
to
develop
it,
they
go
through
the
process
of
having
to
pay
the
fees
that
they
would
have
to
pay.
If
it's
a
redevelop
of
a
house,
they
do.
A
Not
even
if
they
so
so,
I'm
familiar
with
with
a
property.
That
is
two
lots
currently
right
now
and
for
the
developer
to
go
there
and
develop
it.
There
were
they're
requiring
a
re-plat
which
so
so
are
you
saying
with
what
the
city
is
currently
proposing
to
the
subcommittee
that
in
a
circumstance
they
would
have
to
re-plat
so
combining
multiple
lots
and
turning
it
into
a
multi-family?
No,
that's
completely
different.
That.
K
K
Yeah
two
different
items,
so
the
impact
piece
of
the
city
is,
is
well
I'm
sorry,
it's
not
impact
fees,
it's
just
the
fees
that
that
the
development
process
requests.
We
haven't
really
discussed
impact
these
and
how
we're
going
to
apply
them.
That's
coming,
but
I
don't
know
how
they're
going
to
apply
again.
A
J
J
K
The
building
official
makes
the
final
call
on
that
because
there's
there
are
two
schools
of
thought,
but
if
you
have
two
lots
owned
by
the
same
owner
and
they
wanted
to
build
across
the
property
line
to
build
their
complex
and
everything
they
can.
If
the
billing
official
does
not
approve
that,
that
would
make
them
come
over
to
the
planning
department
and
they
would
have
to
replant.
But
it's
at
the
at
the
call
of
the
building's
official
yeah,
because.
J
K
And
the
reason
I
say
it
depends
on
the
billing
official
is
because,
if
he
sees
somebody
puts
a
four
plex
on
one
block,
but
in
the
parking
lot
on
the
other
one
yeah
and
then
down
the
road.
He
sells
right
one
lot,
then
it
messes
up
the
whole
thing.
So
the
building
official
has
to
look
at
the
scenario
and
then
he'll
just
he
determines
whether
I'll
allow
it
to
be
built
right.
K
Going
that
way
and
we're
working
we're
actually
working
on
density
and
trying
to
create
the
the
ability
to
do
that.
You
know
if
you,
so
you
can.
If
you
have
one
lot,
then
you're
going
to
rent
okay,
because
that's
your
property,
your
rent,
the
problem
comes
in,
is,
if
you
try
to
sell
now,
you
don't
need
the
lot
size.
If
you,
if
you
try
to
reply,
so
you
can
sell
it
off.
That's
when
you
we
have
a
problem,
because
the
way
the
ordinance
reads:
they're,
not
they're,
not
big
enough
lots.
A
K
A
A
So
we
can
remove
that
if
everyone's
okay
with
that
okay,
so
the
last
thing,
we
were
a
little
confused
on
john-
and
I
is
so
basically
there
when
it
comes
to
the
feet
so
the
biggest
barrier
for
these
any
z's
are
typically
the
fees
and
we
put
some
recommended
fee
structures
here.
What
is
the
current
fee?
Because
the
city
is
saying
in
their
comments
that
that
they
don't
agree
with
the
fees
and
they'd
like
them
to
be
what
the
originals
were?
A
E
A
So
so
this
was
modeled
after
dallas's
yeah,
the
way
they
explained
it
so
versus
how
it's
written
the
way
this
is
supposed
to
work.
Is
you
have
one
for
four
small
projects
so
like
single
family
homes,
there's
a
25
non-refundable
application
fee
to
apply
for
that
easy
and
then
there's
a
hundred
dollar
per
single
family
house
or
25
of
the
capital
improvement
budget,
minimum
of
a
hundred
dollars
maximum
500
for
all
other
development
projects.
A
Yeah
put
them
together,
so
my
recommendation
is
we
stick
to
the
current
application
fee.
These
these
any
z's
are
not
designed
to
make
the
city
money
it's
it's
designed
to
be
an
incentive
for
someone
that
is
applying
to
redevelop
typically
either
an
empty
property
with
multiple,
multiple
multi-family,
housing
or
or
new
housing,
which
is
just
basically
an
empty
lot
for
someone
fixing
up
a
home
so
the
more
these
are.
A
B
That
the
building
department's
kind
of
stand
is
where
we're
okay
with
waiving
fees
just
be
mindful
that
the
fees
help
their
officials
pay
to
pay
them
to
go
out
and
do
the
compliance
and
do
all
these
things,
because
a
lot
of
their
budget
is
contingent
on
some
of
that
stuff.
So
I
think
that's
kind
of
where
they're
they're
looking
like
they're
willing
to
work
with
it,
but
I
think
that's
their
their
main
concern.
A
Right
right
now,
the
county
is
not
a
part
of
this
program
anymore,
which
pretty
much
gutted
a
lot
of
deals
so
and
I'm
pretty
sure
those
new
fees
that
they're
talking
about
they
raised
them.
They
were
actually
lower
initially,
and
then
they
raised
them.
It's
going
against
the
whole
point
of
the
policy
which
is
supposed
to
be
incentive
policy
in
central
policy.
Every
dollar
counts,
especially
if
you're
talking
about
you,
know
a
small
property
owner,
that's
looking
to
go
in
there
and
fix
her
home
without
getting
slammed
with
taxes.
A
B
What
I
would
say
I
mean
these:
are
these
are
great
recommendations.
You
know
they're
they're
good.
You
brought
up
a
good
point,
mr
chairman,
that
you
know
it's
time
that
things
are
changing.
The
policy
needs
to
change,
so
I
think
we're
all
in
agreement
that
needs
to
happen.
So
I
think
with
the
committee.
If
you
want
to
keep
all
these
as
they.
D
B
You
know
right,
please
get
your
right
to
do
so
as
a
committee
to
take
these
before
city
council
and
the
next
one
for
consideration
tell
them
hey.
These
are
kind
of
the
ones
that
we
want
to
consider
and
implement
and
then
have
council
direct
to
have
the
building
department
go
in
and
actually
you
know
hear
back
from
the
building
department
of.
Why
or
why
not?
We
implement.
A
Yeah,
we're
only
we're
only
a
committee,
it's
not
like
whenever
we
vote
here
suddenly
comes
exploration,
so
I
think
we
recommend
what
we
truly
believe
is
our
recommendation
and,
if
you'd
be
up
to
council
to
either
stick
with
that
or
go.
These
are
guidelines.
These
are
so
so.
This
document
is
so
that
the
city
can
then
go
legally
draft,
what
the
forgot,
what
it
exactly
called
viking
code
or
yes,
the
ordinance.
Thank
you
what
what
the
ordinance
would
would
be
drafted
as
like.
So
this
is
more
kind
of
consumer
facing.
A
H
B
Yes-
and
I
would
add
to
mr
chairman-
just
you
know
that
we
don't
miss
it-
that
on
top
of
timeline
fees,
there's
release
of
city
liens
on
those
four
bullet
points,
weed
liens,
demolition,
liens
and
so
on.
Building
department
wanted
to
make
sure
that
we
convey
to
the
committee
that
they
only
would
like
to
see
it
only
to
new
subdivisions.
B
D
A
He
has
a
building
that
he's
not
fixing
up
not
doing
anything
that
now
has
all
these
liens.
That
liens
are
typically
a
way
of
the
city
to
get
someone
to
do
something
or
to
cover
the
cost
of
that.
If
that
individual
then
goes,
you
know
what
I'll
fix
it
up
and
I
can
put
it
on
the
market
for
lease
and
it
won't
look
that
way
anymore.
A
Part
of
the
incentives
to
that
individual
is
say:
hey
if
you
do
that,
we'll
release
you
of
the
leads,
and
now
you
have
a
a
property
that
not
only
is
now
a
available
home
for
someone,
but
you
have
a
property
that
now
helps
the
neighborhood
right
tax
base
and
everything
else.
So
it's
in
the
best
interest
of
the
city
for
give
up
those
small
double
beans.
It
creates
a
property
that
is
now
available
for
the
community,
and
that
looks
good.
Okay,
okay,.
A
B
A
J
To
bring
that
up
yeah,
so
I
think
what
you
wanted
was
all
new
construction.
Frogs
must
contain
seventy
percent
mason
product
being
that
he
then
must
be
brick
right.
There
is
some
stucco,
I
mean
you
said
that
sometimes
a
stucco
can
be-
and
I
don't
know
maybe
early
with
the
the
stuff
some
of
the
stucco
products.
Maybe
they
deteriorate
much
faster
than
brick,
but
I
mean
you
know
it
is
sort
of
the
mediterranean.
J
You
know
you've
got
in
our
area,
the
mediterranean
look.
So
what
type
of?
As
far
as
when
you
do
a
stucco
finish-
and
I
don't
know
if
it's
you
or
somebody
else-
I
mean
what
type
of
requirements
do
you
do
you
use
as
far
as
thickness
of
the
stucco
or
for
it
not
to
deteriorate,
say
more
than
say,
like
a
brick,
brick
masonry
product.
J
H
D
D
A
A
Right
now,
from
my
understanding
from
the
individuals
that
I've
spoken
to
there's
a
lot
of
people
that
aren't
climbing
to
it's
not
enough,
just
even
as
is
there's
still
not
even
enough
of
an
incentive
to
do
it,
so
it's
just
we're
trying
to
lower
it
as
much
as
possible
so
yeah.
So
we
can't
okay.
So
if
we
can
get
people
to
play.
J
And
I
can
see
where
it
is:
it's
not
too
expensive.
Then
people
just
go
there
and
they
take
a
lot
of
time
with
the
city
staff
or
it's
got
to
be
not
too
expensive,
but
not
too
cheap,
where
everybody
is
applying
and
and
they're
taking
a
lot
of
the
a
lot
of
work
from
the
staff.
You
know
what
I
mean
well,
so
it's
on
the
discussion
we
wanted
to
be
sort
of.
You
know.
A
I
I
agree,
but
it's
on
the
discretion
of
the
staff
to
give
proper
advice
like,
for
example,
if
you're
gonna
go
improve
the
property,
if
you're
planning
on
redoing
a
roof
on
your
property,
and
it
would
qualify
you
for
this
on
on
on
freezing
it.
But
two
years
from
now
your
plan
is
to
build
a
whole
new
section.
You
have
one
shot
to
apply
for
this.
It
would
not
be
recommended
by
staff
to
say
yeah
apply
today.
A
The
true
recommendation
is
you
know
you
should
wait,
that's
going
to
be
the
bigger
amount,
because
that
second
one
where
you
do
the
whole
addition
that's
not
frozen.
This
only
freezes
the
current
improvements
that
you
have.
If
you
go
and
you
do
other
things,
it
doesn't
freeze
your
value,
so
if
they
shouldn't
be
even
if
the
fee
is
lower
because
they
should
be
told
hey
if
you're
planning
on
making
some
improvements,
you
want
to
bundle
it
together
and
you
want
to
wait.
A
There's
a
lot
of
area
that
should
not
doesn't
even
qualify
under
the
state's
definition
of
how
you
should
use
an
energy
policy,
because
it
should
not
be
used
to
develop
large
swatches
of
land
and
there's
any
z's
where
it's
just.
It
makes
no
sense,
and
it
can
be
said
that
it's
not
being
properly
implemented
by
the
state
so
for
staff.
To
also
give
a
recommendation
to
council
on
what
areas
should
remain
in
the
museum.
What
should
be
out
because
it
doesn't
qualify.
A
G
Fix
me,
what
we're
trying
to
do
is
is
to
attract
more
economic
development
with
this
cluster,
so
that
companies
can
see
what
we
can
attract
to
our
city.
That's
basically
what
it
entails.
They
see
what
what
type
of
businesses
are
around,
so
they
can
come
to
to
our
city
and
we've
never
had
one
that
I'm
aware
of,
I
think
it's
time
to
to
get.

Update
to
drive
aviva
comprehensive
plan,
it
is
what
we
in
the
in
the
comp
plan
was
what
we
had
and
what
we
wanted
to
get
was,
I
think,
was
the
medical
thing.
I
think
we
just
called
out
medical
yeah,
that's
what
we're
looking
for,
but
it
was
medical
and
there
was
something
else,
though,
there's
another
one.
