A
Good

Thank

county

business.
I'm

donald
trujilla.
A
This

is
is
the
17th
of
november
2021
and
it's

30
p.m.
We're

we're

We
need
to

A
Question
to
excuse
the
secretary
martinez
and
discussion
non-hurdles
in
favor,
saying
any
opposed
same

not

I

present
it
to

and
come
forward.
Do
we
yeah,
I
don't
see
any
cards,
I
don't
see
anyone
approaching
the
dives
or
the
electorate
here.
So
I
presume
no
one
is
pushing
to
speak.
Okay.
F
A
A
G
Thank
you
very
much
good
afternoon,
jed
brown
with
the
rma
we'd
like
to
give
you
an
update.
We
always
give
it
in
the
packet,
but
we
normally
reserve
some
comments
outside
the
packet
are.
The
information
that
tony
provides
with
me
today
is
melissa.
Montemayor
who'll
have
some
comments
on
an
item
at
number
six,
but
first
thing
I'd
like
to
let
the
judge
know
that,
as
of
our
rma
board
meeting
yesterday,
we've
now
selected
the
firm
that's
going
to
do
the
traffic
study.
I've
already
let
the
county
engineer
that
that's
happened.
G
So
that's
going
to
proceed
immediately,
the
the
engagement
with
them.
We
had
a
number
that
we
had
previously
approved
that
that
was
what
we
thought,
that
it
would
cost
and
ended
up
costing
more.
So
I
had
to
take
it
back
to
the
board
to
get
them
to
put
a
little
bit
more
money
into
the
project.
But
excuse
me
that's
done
what
traffic
study
is.
This?
Oh,
did
I
not
say
life
downs?
G
D
D
G
D
D
G
G
I
was
excited
to
have
the
celebration
on
monday
with
with
dr
martinez,
on
the
the
groundbreaking
there
we're
proud
to
partner
with
the
city
on
that,
and
I
think
we're
in
for
about
50
percent
of
the
cost
of
that
job
los
presidentes,
which
is
a
project
that
we're
also
working
on
with
the
city
with
txdot
and
with
the
drainage
district
phase.
One
is
45
phase
2a
is
70
percent
complete.
That
project
is
on
track
to
be
done
in
june
of
this
year
or
june.
Of
of
2022.
G
txdot's
portion
of
the
project
is,
is,
I
think,
slated
to
finish
about
the
same
time
where
they're
doing
the
excel
decelerations,
along
with
us,
to
tie
to
the
project.
So
we're
excited
that's
moving
along
kilim
industrial
boulevard,
the
the
mines
road
killing
project
is
going
a
little
bit
more
slowly
at
no
one's
fault,
it's
materials
issues
with
street
lights,
but
as
soon
as
that
comes
in
tech,
stocks
told
us
that
that
will
kick
off.
Hopefully,
by
december
of
this
year,
viacio
has
always
been
near
and
dear
to
our
hearts.
G
We
always
update
you
all
with
that.
I'm
sure
all
of
you
saw
that
the
the
transportation
bill
passed
without
earmarks.
That
means
there
were
no
funds
allocated
to
viaceo.
Unfortunately,
but
we
were
working
on
plans
two
and
three
there
plan
two
is
to
get
the
money
from
austin
when
the
30
billion
dollars
with
the
b
hits
austin
in
march
of
this
year.
Congressman
cuellar
is
very
much
in
support
of
the
project
has
written
a
letter
to
bruce
bugg.
Accordingly,
he's
he's
visited
with
bruce
bug.
G
I'm
I'm
going
to
write
a
letter
myself
to
the
governor.
As
the
governor's
appointee,
letting
him
know
how
important
it
is
to
our
community,
the
final
project
is
river
road.
If
you
all
recall
at
the
last
mpo
meeting,
you
all
asked
me
if
the
rma
would
undertake
that
project
or
or
try
and
figure
out
how
we
could
help
with
river
road,
and
I
took
that
to
the
board.
We
had
a
meeting
yesterday,
a
resolution
passed
for
us
to
participate
with
the
mpo
on
the
river
road
project.
G
We,
I
asked
melissa
what
the
next
logical
step
for
that
would
be
to
to
move
it
along,
and
she
said,
and
I'm
going
to
paraphrase
I'll-
probably
get
it
wrong,
but
I
call
it
an
alignment
study
trying
to
figure
out
the
various
routes
that
the
road
could
take
from
where
it
would
start.
Even
though
there's
different
portions
that
I
one
would
argue
already
complete,
where
it
would
start
close
to
where
river
river
is
a
riverbank
or
riverbend
hits
a
kettle.
A
A
Yeah,
do
you
want
to
point
to
the
by
this?
You
just
will
know
that
iso
road
is
located
here
and
you're,
saying
that
the
ceo
we're
we're
hopeful
that
that
once
the
the
30
billion
dollars
hits
austin
in
march,
that
there's
there's
a
possibility
that
that
can
get
in
a
good
possibility.
Okay,
on
a
possibility,
there's
good
probability
there.
We.
G
G
So,
okay,
that's
why
so
that's
my
seo,
which
was
the
previous
item
I
updated
here-
is
the
mines,
road
and
then
riverbank
winds
around
here.
A
kettle
is
about
right
here,
a
kettle
subdivision,
what's
shown
in
green
and
it's
probably
fairly
faint
travels
east
of
the
mines
road
to
the
northwest,
then
kind
of
bends
back
around
still
going
northwest
and
comes
out
somewhere
close
to
at
the
end
of
this
road
and
it's
our
parkway.
G
That's
part
of
the
alignment
study
is
where
the
the
logical
location
for
that
road
could
be,
and
I
hopefully
y'all
could
see
the
map
clearly
on
that.
The
the
the
motion
that
was
approved
by
the
rma
was
that
we
would
would
partner
with
the
mpo
on
that
we
we
did
not
have
that
project
on
our
radar
screen,
yeah
it,
but
once
we
really
looked
at
the
project
and
saw
the
merit,
it
definitely
complements
what's
happening
with
viacio
the
killam
turn
lane
and
all
the
growth
and
activity.
G
That's
in
that
area
for
us
largely
it's
a
safety
factor
if
that
road
is
constructed
and
and
tractor-trailer
traffic
is
not
allowed
on
the
road.
But
yet
you
can
have
pedestrian
vehicles,
smaller
vehicles,
school
buses
and
emergency
services.
Vehicles
on
that
road.
Only
it
makes
a
lot
of
sense
for
parents
and
school
buses
getting
children
to
all
the
schools
up
and
down
the
mines,
road,
never
having
to
travel
actually
on
the
mines
road,
probably
to
to
get
to
their
school
location.
G
A
B
And
since
this
is
a
project
specific
study,
the
transportation
planning
funds
that
we
have
as
mpo,
you
know
we
might
not
be
able
to
use
that
for
for
these
purposes,
so
we
need
to
check
on
the
eligibility
for
that
we
can
mention
that
to
naza,
and
tomorrow
we
have
a
meeting
with
our
fhwa
rep
and
something
we
can
run
by
them.
Okay,
just
so
you
all
are.
A
I
I
Mr
mandiva's
alluding
to
and
I'm
looking
at
the
memo-
and
please
don't
take
this
in
any
disrespectful
way
or
whatnot
250
000-
for
a
study
on
six
miles
of
roadway.
Correct!
That's
what
we're
looking
at
now!
You
do
have
it
as
a
cost,
plus
cost
plus
not
to
exceed
the
contract.
So
do
you
foresee
the
total
250
000
being
spent,
or
is
it
going
to
be
a
little
less
than
that,
but.
F
J
I
B
The
specifics
of
this
then
mentions
environmental
analysis,
data
review
and
some
traffic
analysis
and
cost
estimating,
but
it
is
project
specific
for
a
specific
project.
I
know,
as
per
planning
agreement
those
transportation
planning
funds.
We
have
does
not
allow
us
to
spend
money
on
project
specific
projects
planning
for
project
specific,
so
it
has
to
be
like
a
sub
area
or
a
corridor,
but
there
might
be
other
funds
that
you
know.
F
J
K
This
we're
not
starting
from
scratch
on
this
program
on
this
road,
because
I
know
that
there
were
private
entities
that
had
had
some
studies
done
already
and
some
work
done,
and
I
don't
know
if
that's
being
factored
in
at
all.
Are
we
looking
at
any
of
the
past
work?
Planning
that
has
been
gone
has
gone
into
this
particular
road.
J
And
and
council
woman,
I
believe
now,
as
far
as
I
remember,
the
material
that's
been
presented
so
far
has
been
a
concept,
so
a
concept
of
what
the
typical
section
would
be.
You
know
the
number
of
lanes
and
you
know
what
it
would
look
like
the
terrain
on
both
sides-
and
you
know
perhaps
what
would
be
developed
on
both
sides.
It's
something
that
you
know
we
would
do
in
in
the
consulting
world.
It's
like
a
concept
station
view.
So
when
an
alternative
analysis
is
done
on
routes,
we
look
at
environmental
constraints.
J
So
are
there
any
issues
out
there
to
the
environment,
whether
it
be
drainages?
So
you
know
you
want
to
try
to
avoid
going
to
the
widest
part
of
the
drainage,
because
the
bridge
structures
are
very
costly,
so
we
look
at
avoiding
perhaps
those
the
closer
we
get
to
the
rio
grande
river.
Then
there's
flood
plain
and
flood
way
issues
and
coordination
with
international
boundary,
water,
commission,
sensitive
habitat.
J
Of
course,
you
know
anytime
you're
near
a
river,
there
could
be
sensitive
habitat
to
different
species
like
ocelots
like
we
had
when
we
constructed
and
designed
the
loop
20
between
I-35
and
1472.
archaeological
sites.
That's
another
environmental
constraint
as
well.
So
you
know
all
these
are
taken
into
consideration
and
then
there's
a
public
involvement
factor
as
well,
so
getting
the
input
from
stakeholders
residences
commercial
establishments,
the
the
industrial
parks
that
are
out
there
as
well
getting
their
feedback.
J
You
know
nothing
really
paints
that
picture
as
well
as
when
the
people
that
live
there,
give
you
information
as
to
what's
in
their
backyard,
so
that's
imperative
and
getting
their
support
and
then
we'll
to
put
together
on
those
alternatives.
What
the
costs
would
be.
You
know
estimated
to
construct
those
various
alternate
routes
as
well.
A
When
you
in
your
stated,
non-specific
more
corridor
type,
could
we
extend
that
further
south?
You
know
the
more
information
we
have,
because,
ultimately
we
need
to
connect.
You
know
to
parallel,
you
know,
to
avoid
mites
rota
and
that
we
can
connect
to
to
35
or
some
some
southern
point
or
calton
or
somewhere
in
there.
Would
that
help
you
to
release
more
funds.
It.
B
B
F
B
Right
now
this,
like
the
chairman
brown,
mentioned
this
or
something
else
not,
I
think,
on
their
radar.
We've
been
talking
about
in
the
mpo
before
in
the
past
many
years
ago.
It's
just
not
a
study
that
was
programmed
in
our
upwp,
so
the
committee
wishes
to
proceed
with
this
right
now.
This
is
not
an
action
item.
It's
just
a
memo
that
the
partner
is.
B
We're
exploring
if
it
gets
to
that
point
where
it's
an
action
item.
The
policy
committee
wishes
to
proceed
with
the
study
and
it's
something
that
we
can
do
that
we're
able
to.
Actually
you
know,
put
funds
into
this,
then
we
would
need
to
reprogram
our
upwp
to
add
this,
but
we
just
need
to
be
careful
that
it's
not.
K
With
the
expansion
of
the
world
trade
bridge
and
on
all
these
outlets,
it's
going
to
alleviate
some
of
the
traffic
that
we
have
now,
but
it's
also
going
to
cause
more
traffic.
There's
going
to
be
more
development,
there's
going
to
be
more
trucks,
and
I
think
this
project
here
is
pretty
much
our
only
way
out
other
than
taking
fm
1472
vertical
to
give
more
alleviation
for
the
traffic
and
as
far
as
the
residents
and
the
kit
and
the
the
school
buses
and
things
like
that.
K
That
is
a
safety
issue
right
now
mayor
and
we
have
said
that
congestion
on
fm
1472
was
going
to
be
a
priority.
We
had
identified
that
at
our
at
our
strategic
planning
session,
so
this
project
is
in
line
with
the
goals
that
we
had
already
set
earlier
this
year
and
as
far
as
safety
and
all
of
that
for
the
people
in
this
area.
K
If
we
don't
plan
ahead
for
something
like
this,
we're
going
to
end
up
with
all
these
outlets
as
we
construct
them,
we're
going
to
end
up
with
the
congestion
back
in
a
few
years,
maybe
10
years
from
now
we're
going
to
be
back
at
where
we're
at
right
now.
So
I
think,
in
line
with
viaceo
and
in
line
with
hachar
ruthinger,
we
do
need
to
look
at
a
passenger
only
route
for
residents
and.
A
J
B
And
just
so,
it's
clear
the
mpo
supports
this
project.
We
brought
it.
You
know
to
the
last
meeting.
The
technical
committee
recommended
that
we
explore
options
with
the
rma,
and
you
know
we
discuss
at
the
policy
committee
and
staff
supports
this
project,
but
we
just
need
to
be
careful
like
which
funds
we
can
use.
That's
the
only
thing
that
I'm
expressing
okay,
but
we
we.
A
G
On
that
we
can
use,
and-
and
I
know
ramon
has-
a
comment-
may
have-
may
even
have
a
better
map.
We,
we
could
certainly
work
with
staff
to
come
back
in
and
and
shape
this
more.
It
just
happened
yesterday
the
ability
for
us
to
move
it
forward
once
I
got
the
rest
of
the
board
to
buy
in
in
the
resolution
we
had
passed
yesterday,
so
we
can
come
back
in
december
with
a
a
more
solid
plan.
K
J
A
H
If
I
can
real
quick
just
before
we
move
off
the
item,
I
would
recommend
like
we
talked
about
right.
We
look
at
it
holistically
and
we
focus
on
1472
acharya,
the
future
potential
ico
and
this
relief
route.
So
we
can
look
at.
I
guess,
there's
a
master
plan
in
this
area
right
and
obviously
all
those
are
going
to
come
in
in
phases.
That
would
be
something
if
we
are
going
to
spend
that
amount
of
money.
I
would.
I
would
think
we
would
like
to
see
that
as
well.
A
G
Was
the
north
laredo
transportation
plan,
but
that
was
that
didn't
really
focus
on
this
sub
region
as
much
as
the
whole
area.
Actually,
when
I
was
looking
for
a
map,
I
was
going
to
lay
the
one
the
page
from
that
that
project
and
yes
that
was
like
675
thousand
dollars,
but
it
didn't
tell
us
it
showed
a
line
where
this
road
could
go
and
where
it
ranked
probably
in
priority
and
what
exactly.
G
D
A
A
J
Yeah
that
north
korean
study-
you
know
the
trigger-
was
all
the
congestion
on
1472,
and
what
can
the
community
do
to
resolve
those
issues
on
of
that
congestion?
So
the
north
radar
study
basically
had
parameters
of
1472
onto
via
I-69
west,
and
then
you
know
a
char
road
at
the
north
and
it
looked
at
projects
that
again
could
alleviate
congestion.
One
of
the
projects
that
was
identified
that
could
help
with
the
congestion
on
1472
was
this
riverbank
road?
We
not
now
call
a
kettle
and
it
looked
at
other
possibilities
too.
J
A
J
So
we
were
talking
about
the
congestion
on
1472.,
so
you
know
there
was
various
solutions
that
resulted
from
the
study.
You
know
we
talked
about
a
roundabout.
A
direct
connector
we
know
would
be
very
costly.
There
would
be
a
lot
of
right-of-way
to
be
acquired
and
a
lot
of
money
associated
with
that
right
away
if
there
was
a
direct
connector
that
would
head
from
head
for
world
trade
bridge
to
north
fm
1472.
F
J
I
I
I
actually
thought
that
conceptual
drawing
of
the
railroad
had
already
been
selected,
but
I
would
caution
you
that
when
we
are
doing
these
studies-
and
I
know
that
the
breakdown
will
probably
help
us-
that
we
don't
just
focus
on
this
river
road,
perfect
samples.
Just
by
ico-
we
need
to
look
at
how
it's
going
to
work
holistically
all
together,
not
just
to
evaluate
one
roadway
at
a
time.
G
G
And
I'm
sure
melissa
is
too
and
that's
a
big.
It
has
to
be
an
actionable
study.
That's
the
way
I
look
at
it.
It
has
to
be
something
that
the
work
product
that's
developed
from.
It
is
something
that
that,
if
it's
city
of
loreto
right
of
way
through
there,
it's
city
limits
that
that
the
alignment
that's
openly
selected,
hopefully,
is
a
result
of
this
study.
D
If
I
may,
I
want
to
bring
an
item
back.
If
you
don't
mind,
I'd
like
to
move
a
motion
to
bring
an
item
back
on
all
the
studies
that
have
been
done
in
the
last
eight
years
on
the
north
area,
if
you
could
get
all
those
for
us,
because
I
just
I'm
one
of
these
guys
that
I
I
just
when
we're
paying
this
kind
of
amount
of
money
for
studies
and
studies
and
studies
and
studies
and
nothing's
getting
done.
D
I
I
just
feel
like
we're
just
spending
our
rules
and
getting
nothing
done,
and
I'm
not
going
against
anybody
here.
I'm
not
trying
to
put
anybody
in
a
bad
light,
but
if
we're
spending
the
money
we
should
have
some
kind
of
results,
and
so
I
want
all
the
studies
done
that
the
mpo
has
done
within
the
last
eight
years.
Please,
eight
years.
D
K
B
G
And
so
we
haven't
done
a
study
since
I've
been
here,
we've
actually
been
a
a
an
entity,
that's
putting
money
into
construction,
so
I
had
one
of
our
board
members
say
something
to
me
that
I
really
took
to
heart
when
we
had
the
groundbreaking
on
monday
for
for
springfield,
which
is
you
know,
we've
evolved
if
there's
an
rma
that
did
studies
to
one,
that's
actually
doing
construction,
and
I
I
liked
that
comment.
Ironically
yesterday,
at
our
board
meeting
two
of
the
items
dealt
with
doing
studies
because
we
have
to
one
of
them.
D
D
I
was
just
thinking,
maybe
have
a
set
up
to
where
we
can
get.
Maybe
some
fed
monies
and
use
that
as
a
security
road
as
well,
so
I'm
just
trying
to
find
different
alternatives,
different
monies
trying
to
look
at
different
opportunities
that
are
out
there,
because
right
now
we
desperately
need
that
road.
And
what
more
can
we?
You
know?
D
G
E
And
we
have
met,
and
over
the
last
two
or
three
years
we
have
been
looking
at
this
when
we
were
looking
at
the
bulkhead
project.
We
were
looking
at
a
a
road
project
because-
and
someone
has
that
information-
because
what
we
were
trying
to
do
is
we
were
trying
to
use
federal
money
both
for
ourselves
having
a
passage
another
parallel
to
I-35.
But
beyond
that,
we
were
trying
to
work
with
our
federal
partners
to
be
able
to
actually
have
this
road.
E
E
This
road
meets,
I
believe,
the
standards
of
border
security
and
the
mayor
has
really
been
harping
on
this
for
the
last
two
years
and
we
hope
washington
is
listening
and
and
if
not,
we
hope
the
the
governor
is
listening
as
well,
because
this
is
something
that
would
help
us
locally,
be
able
to
patrol
the
river
in
a
much
more
efficient
way
without
having
to
go
on
atvs
or
on
boats
or
all
those
things
that
we
currently
have
to
do.
This
would
allow
us
line
of
sight
a
very
light.
E
Excuse
me,
a
very
brightly
lighted
road
wide
that
would
allow
passage
of
vehicles
and
also
to
protect
our
borders.
So
this
is
exactly
what
we've
been
trying
to
do
for
the
last
two
years
and-
and
we
hope
you
know
now-
that
the
governor
is
giving
out
funds
for
these
types
of
projects.
We
hope
that
he
he's
listening
to
us
and
that
he
he
finds
this
road
as
important
as
we
do,
because
it
does
solve
two
big
problems
that
we
have
right
now
and
the
last
point
here
I'm
going
to
make.
E
I
know
we
have
a
motion
that
we
have
to
vote
on.
Is
you
know
we're
looking
for
parallels
and
this
riverbank
road
is
one
heading
south
and
heading
north,
but
you
know
the
city
continues
to
grow
and
expand
towards
the
the
east
right,
and
so
we
have
to
look
to
the
opposite
side
of
I-35
as
a
potential
way
of
offsetting
some
of
the
traffic.
E
If
we're
able
to
take
these
major
roads
that
were
widening
I-69,
that's
getting
widened
and
instead
of
turning
on
1472,
we
advance
right
past
I-35
to
the
next
road
and
take
that
north,
which
would
be
international
or
mcpherson,
or
something
like
that.
We
can
run
parallels
that
will
help
us
kind
of
create
a
circular
pattern
throughout
that
region,
and
so
anytime,
we're
looking
at
this.
We
we're
very
specific
in
how
we
search
for
things
right.
E
A
J
A
Let
me
just
add
two
points
and
it
all
stands
for
what
the
judge
said.
You
know
we
do
have
these
repurposed
monies
remember
there
was
going
to
be
a
wall
and
we
got
very
close
to
this
building
that
wall,
but
it
was
cancelled,
so
those
monies
are
available.
I'm
told
now
for
for
potentially
this
virtual
wall,
which
we've
been
asking
for
for
for
years,
so
you
know,
there's
a
possibility.
We
can
tap
into
those
those
repurposed
monies
through
our
congressmen
or
or
whoever.
A
G
D
F
I
Good
reason,
because
there
is
not
a
lot
of
money
out
there
for
construction,
so
we
need
to
make
sure
we're
doing
that,
and
I
know
that
hmtv
would
do
a
fabulous
job
of
taking
what
was
in
that
600
000
study.
There
was
recommendations
in
there
that
you'll
take
a
good
look
at
that
before
you
submit
on
this
guy.
D
Waiting
yeah,
I'm
gonna
finish
off
with
this.
I
know
with
this
infrastructure
bill
that
that
has
been
shoved
down
the
united
states
by
congress
and
by
the
senate.
That's
fine!
You
know.
President
biden
wants
his
infrastructure
bill.
This
is
the
perfect
infrastructure
project
and
that's
what
I'm
saying
if
there's
not
any
money
for
this,
then
what
was
the
bill.
For
I
mean
these
are
the
kind
of
things
that
we
need
to
look
into
and
tap
into
and
get
into
our
federal
dollars.
That's
my
other.
K
Back
when
this
was
presented,
I
remember
being
at
the
airport
conference
room
council,
member
alkyl
had
called
the
meeting.
I
don't
know
if
you
were
there,
you
were
there
mayor.
There
were
border
patrol,
there
were
a
lot
of
federal
representatives,
and
one
of
the
things
that
they
did
say
is
if
the
road
was
to
be
pushed
a
little
bit
closer
towards
the
river
that
it
would
help
with
the
the
issues
that
judge
the
others.
K
Is
not
like
something
that
they
haven't
seen
before
and
they
actually
gave
their
input
in
that
this
would
help
with
with
their
with
their
endeavors.
So
if
we
can
and
that
that's
one
of
the
comments
they
said
was
if
the
river
was
pushed
closer
to.
If
the
road
was
pushed
closer
to
the
river
in
the
plan,
then
then
they
might
be
able
to
participate,
and
so
that
could
be
something
that
we
could.
J
A
J
With
those-
and
you
know
the
the
six
hundred
thousand
dollar
study
that
chairman
brown
was
referencing,
that
is
the
bird's
eye
study
for
for
north
laredo,
and
this
would
be
more
specific-
and
you
know
yesterday
again
again
to
just
to
reiterate
what
chairman
brown
mentioned.
So
techo
garcia,
one
of
the
city
of
laredo
directors,
did
present
to
the
rma
board
yesterday
and
requested
that
the
rma
study
this
alignment,
these
alignments
and
then
participate
financially
to
help
the
city
with
moving
this
forward.
Oh.
G
What
was
talked
about
in
south
carolina
he's
he's
going
to
be
real
involved
when
that
the
study
starts
off
on
the
alignment
to
look
at
all
the
master
plans
that
are
programmed
for
the
mines
road
area
to
see
how
they
all
work.
He
one
of
our
members
had
a
really
interesting
comment.
Was
it
doesn't
look
like
there's
a
need.
G
G
D
A
Okay,
so
call
for
the
question
then,
and
we'll
we'll
pick
up
there
yellows
and
that
says
all
studies
done
within
work
county.
I
guess
in
the
city
of
royal
canyon,
overall
call
for
the
personal
service
yeah,
all
right
and
you're
opposed,
not
heard
motion
carries
unanimously.
Thank
you,
yeah,
mr
chair.
Let's
go
ahead.
L
And
members
of
the
commission
I'll
try
to
be
brief.
I
don't
know
if
you
can
see
the
screen
or
we
can
have
there.
You
go
okay,
so
this
is
called
a
conceptual
river
road
route
study
layout
from
rear
rank
drive
to
fm
1472
mantra.
So
there
I've
been
able
to
get
my
hands
on
on
this
they're
at
the
engineering
department,
going
back
to
2016,
as
you
can
see
on
the
screen.
So
if
I
can
do
a
little
bit
more
research,
I'm
sure
I
can
find
out
if
there's
additional
information
to
this.
A
Border
control
border
patrol
had
really
planned
for
for
a
road
very
close
to
the
river.
Yes,
and
I
think
you
all
were
very
much
part
of
that
too.
Is
that
something
that
you
know?
Obviously
we
need
to
share
with
with
the
rmas
to
see,
because
I
think
you
know
the
engineering
studies
were
done.
The
alignment
studies
were
done.
I
think,
do
you
think
they'll
be
helpful.
You
know
for
the
project
that
we're
thinking
about
now.
I.
L
L
A
A
G
A
J
G
A
D
F
B
A
A
H
Yeah,
I
guess
just
an
update
again:
we
are
sitting
on
working
on
the
environmental
clearance.
We
are
projected
between
six
eight
months
to
have
environmental
clearance.
We
had
the
archaeologist
out
there
last
week
completing
the
last
round
of
investigations
that
need
to
perform.
We
are
looking
at
a
public
meeting
which
will
need
to
be
held
as
part
of
the
requirements
for
the
environmental
clearance
sometime
and
we're
looking
about
march.
A
L
As
mr
gonzalez
mentioned,
we
did
have
a
meeting
last
monday
just
to
coordinate
and
go
over
some
of
the
next
steps
that
need
to
be
taken.
As
far
as
the
right-of-way
is
concerned,
we
did
receive
from
where
the
corporation
the
scan
recorded
the
documents,
meaning
that
now
we're
only
dealing
with
two
property
owners,
which
is
a
ruthlinger
and
their
charge.
So
we
have
those
documents
already
in
our
in
our
hands.
Okay,.
L
A
Thank
you
very
much.
Moving
on
to
the
discussion
with
the
possible
election
on
the
proposal
to
use
a
self-allocation
of
approximately
2.3
million
dollars
of
highway
infrastructure
programs
like
runner,
virus
response
and
relief,
supplemental
appropriations
act,
2021
funds
for
the
achar
bhutan
wrote
project.
Is
that
something
that
texts
or.
B
B
These
monies
are
coming
from
the
ronavirus
response
and
re
appropriation
act.
These
additional
federal
funds
are
for
use
on
highway
infrastructure
programs
and
these
projects
to
use
these
funds.
The
project
must
meet
the
eligibility
requirements
for
urban
areas
for
the
population
of
over
200
000,
which
is
the
same
as
category
7
and
they're
available
for
obligation
now
through
september
30th
2024,
and
they
must
be
expensed
before
2029.
B
B
F
A
Essence,
use
that
2.3
million
dollars
to
the
extent
that
they're
necessary
to
fill
in
any
gaps
on
their
routing.
That's
correct
project,
correct,
okay,
yes,
and
is
there
a
second?
I
would
second
that
then
a
discussion,
not
hurdles
in
favor,
saying
all
right.
Any
opposed
non-verbal
motion
carries
unanimously.
Thank
you,
mayor.
A
A
B
A
Any
approach
not
heard
motion
carries
unanimously.
Thank
you.
Let's
see
for
item
b,
five
b,
all
right,
yeah
updated
by
the
mpos
there
from
the
administrative
modification
to
a
fiscal
year,
2021-2024
tip,
which
is
the
transportation
improvement
program
to
reflect
leading
date,
changes
from
fiscal
year
2021
to
fiscal
year,
2022
on
four
projects
and
they're
there
at
the
ada
bus
stops
and
bicycle
plazas,
the
f1472
fletcher
lane
and
the
calton
santa
maria
interchange
and
the
river
vega
trail.
B
Correct
this
item
doesn't
require
any
action.
It's
just
here
for
informational
purposes,
based
on
our
public
participation
plan,
we're
able
to
update
the
transportation
improvement
program
when
you're
changing
letting
dates
on
projects.
These
are
four
projects
that
the
lane
date
needs
to
change
from
fy
21
to
fy
2022,
those
four
projects
that
you
see
there
for
the
fletcher
lane
f-1472
project
and
the
calton
santa
maria
interchange
project.
B
I
know
mr
chavez
was
here
a
few
months
ago,
gave
a
presentation
on
that
and
there's
an
estimated
lighting
data,
fy
2022
for
the
other
two
projects,
the
ada
bus
stops
and
bicycle
plazas
and
their
river
vega
trail
project.
Those
are
two
projects
that
are
being
funded
with
the
category:
nine
funds
that
are
the
transportation
alternative
funds
and
those
projects
right
now
are
still
in
the
development
stages.
I,
for
that.
I
got
trail
project.
They
already
went
out
for
bids
for
design,
so
it's
estimated
that
it
will
be
constructed
in
fy2022.
B
H
If
I
can't
marry
on
that
item
just
on
the
two
party,
specifically
fletcher
lane
and
carlton,
I
know
those
have
been
around
for
some
time.
Those
are
earmarked
funds
right
that
cannot
be
moved
anywhere
else.
They
have
to
review
specifically
for
their
calton
has
13.2
million
and
fletch
has
1.8
million.
H
So
I
believe,
sometime
in
the
past
mpo
we
used
to
get
yeah.
I
think
quarterly
updates
on
that
project.
I
would
like
to
see
we
can
bring
that
back
just
to
make
sure
that
they're
staying
on
track.
I
know
there
has
been
movement
recently
on
calton
to
get
that
to
go
to
leading,
but
we
have
been
moving
them
for
quite.
F
A
B
In
my
report
I
did
have
a
conversation
this
morning
with
mrs
asking
her
about
the
the
audit
already
beginning
the
audit
right
now.
They're
initiating
conversations
with
techsoft
staff
and
they're
gonna
be
reaching
out
to
us
to
see
what
reports
we
need
to
submit,
or
you
know
what
information
we
need
to
submit.
B
On
october
28th,
we
met
mpo
staff
met
with
the
consultant
team,
that's
helping
the
city
of
verado
with
the
world
trade
bridge
expansion.
They
had
questions
about
what
would
need
to
happen
to
be
able
to
make
amendments
to
our
mtp
and
the
tip
to
add
that
project.
So
we
have
those
conversations
with
them
and
we
continue
to
monitor
any
activities
related
to
that
world
trade
bridge
expansion
and
the
proposed
bridge
4-5
our
upcoming
meetings.
We
have
our
active
transportation
committee
meeting
we're
proposing
ava
on
december
1st.
B
Originally
it
would
have
been
november
24th
but
because
of
thanksgiving
holidays.
So
moving
that
to
the
first
of
december,
our
next
technical
committee
is
december
7th
and
our
policy
committee
is
december.
15Th
we'll
have
several
items
at
that
meeting
because
we
need
to
bring
some
tip
amendments
for
that
meeting
to
initiate
the
public
comment
and
so
we're
hoping
to
have
that
december.
B
15Th
meeting
also
we're
coordinating
with
metro
on
their
comprehensive
operational
analysis
working
with
the
consultants
they're
in
the
final
stages,
already
they're
going
to
be
delivering
a
final
report
for
a
review
and
then
we're
anticipating
a
presentation
to
the
policy
committee,
probably
sometime
in
january
and
finally,
texas
transportation
planning,
programming
division,
the
traffic
analysis
staff
provided
their
the
2013-2045,
the
radio
travel
demand
model.
The
supports
is
right
in
our
long-range
planning
activities
for
the
metropolitan
area,
so
we
met
with
them.
B
F
B
A
B
It
had
a
meeting
yesterday
with
the
texas
mpos
or
the
texas
mpo
association
meeting,
and
they
provided
an
update
on
that
and
then,
like
I
mentioned
tomorrow,
I'll
be
meeting
with
our
fhwa
rep.
So
we'll
probably
have
more
conversations
on
that,
but
I
know
there's
going
to
be
additional
funds,
but
also
additional
requirements
for
mpos
that
we
need
to.
You
know,
comply
with
so
we're
studying
all
that
right
now.
B
A
K
Yeah
just
saying
no
yeah
in
a
good
way
saying
that
we're
more
we're
more,
you
know
we
passed
los
angeles
and
things
like
that.
So
it's
just.
I
think
that
the
fact
that
our
city
has
such
a
high
standing
with
the
trade,
I
think
we
can
try
to
get
lobby,
get
to
get
some
more
of
that
infrastructure
money
down.
