Description
Metropolitan Planning Organization Meeting 012120
A
New,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
I'm
calling
this
meeting
to
order.
This
is
the
rate
of
Urban
transportation
study,
otherwise
known
as
the
MPO,
the
otherwise
known
as
the
Metropolitan
Planning
Organization
Policy
Committee.
Yet
we're
meeting
here
at
the
city
council
chambers
at
11:10,
Houston
Street
in
the
radio
Texas
today
is
January
21st
2020
and
it's
1:30
9
p.m.
B
A
C

E
A
As
much
in
the
second
discussion
on
her
goal,
so
here
we're
saying
hi,
any
opposed
unheard
motion
carries
unanimously.
Thank
you
moving
on,
but
before
we
do,
I
would
like
to
acknowledge
some
young
people
that
have
been
shadowing
following
our
mayor
and
I.
Guess
of
the
council,
any
other
commissioners
from.
E
F
E
Governments
and,
more
importantly,
our
county
government
and
I,
let
them
know
the
differences
between
the
city
and
the
county
and
the
job
opportunities
that
are
there.
We
have
some
that
want
to
be
aspired
to
be
lawyers.
Some
wants
to
be
a
medical
examiner,
even
even
after
we
came
out
of
the
governor's
office.
I
was
surprised,
pleasantly
surprised,
and
then
you
have
some
other
individuals
that
want
to
be
engineers
and
whatnot.
E
So
they
have
a
very
bright,
be
bright,
future
already
excited
for
them,
and
they
were
a
great
group
of
young
women
and
young
men
to
be
able
to
be
around
today.
So
they
got
to
see
a
little
bit
of
everything.
I
did
something
the
most
important
part.
I
was
this
morning
when
we
were
doing
the
the
ribbon-cutting
for
the
for
the
loop
I
told
her.
You
might
forget
about
this
whole
day,
but
for
the
rest
of
your
lives
are
gonna
pass
with
your
grandchildren
and
your
children.
E
A
I
I
E
J
Okay,
well,
you
all
said
hello
earlier
to
the
young
people.
I
thought
you
missed
me.
So
I
was
a
little
turn
that
group-
and
this
is
the
really
fun
part
of
planning,
because
I
get
to
give
that
the
very
end
of
the
process
and
show
you
how
the
process
we
did
can
make
a
difference,
how
it
can
change
how
it
can
be
good
for
y'all.
So
let
me
say
what
the
MTP
is:
it's
the
Metropolitan
Transportation
plan.
It's
a
25-year
plan
for
guiding
transportation
investments
for
the
region.
J
The
neat
part
about
it
is
it's
not
only
a
plan.
It's
a
framework
to
guide
these
decisions.
It's
all
inclusive
it.
It
documents
how
our
process
is
inclusive
of
everybody,
every
region,
every
transportation
mode.
It's
fair!
Every
project
has
a
chance
to
be
selected,
it's
also
required
by
federal
law
and
it's
part
of
a
five-year
cycle
that
keeps
on
going
it
soon.
As
we
finish
this
plan,
it
starts
the
next
one,
here's
the
timeline
or
showing
we
started:
data
collection
and
preparation.
J
Three
full
years
ago
and
they're
working
about
a
year
and
a
half
on
the
actual
document,
a
lot
of
what
we've
done.
If
you
can
see,
there's
public
involvement,
we
went
to
the
stakeholders
all
kinds
of
groups.
We
had
public
meetings
to
get
the
region's
vision
for
what
they
want
transportation
to
do
for
them.
We
came
some
mathematical
processes,
so
we
have
subjective
and
objective
parts.
J
Everything
is
documented
and
transparent
and
clear.
We
went
through
we
had
draft
documents.
Public
meetings
forget
review,
so
everything
is
open.
Then,
after
three
years,
300
pages
worth
of
document.
This
is
basically
a
summary
of
what
we've
got
here.
This
is
the
fiscally
constrained
25
year.
Projects
of
all
the
different
funding
categories.
J
Tex
out
has
some
projects.
We
have
metropolitan
mobility
projects.
We
have
transit,
we're
looking
at
bicycle
ultimate
modes
they're
all
here.
This
is
about
a
dozen
we've
also
got
the
rest
of
the
project,
so
they're
unfunded
are
also
in
the
plan.
They're
they're
ready,
they're,
prioritizing
ranked
and
ready
to
go.
So
what
we've
got
where
we
are
right
now
at
the
end
of
the
process.
This
morning
we
met
with
a
Technical
Committee
and
they
recommended
approval
of
the
plan
they
they
liked
it.
J
The
next
step
is
for
y'all
to
adopt
it
to
meet
the
federal
requirements
and
the
deadlines,
and
then
the
next
step
after
that
is
not
the
end
of
this
process,
but
it's
the
very
beginning,
Vanessa
and
Kirby
will
be
using
this
plan.
This
process
is
framework,
they'll
be
conforming
the
tip
all
the
time,
which
is
a
transportation
improvement
program.
Your
three-year
category
of
projects
for
immediate
construction
and
implementation,
conforming
to
this
long
range
plan
and
then
going
forward
will
start.
The
next
five-year
cycle
will
to
be
that
2050
plan,
okay,
I.
A
A
F
D
J
A
B
A
J
Actually
do
those
two
separately:
the
active
transportation
is
the
one
that
is
most
in
there.
We
have
the
projects
and
we
rank
them.
That's
the
category
9
to
where
they
we
submit
the
grant
and
then
we
may
or
may
not
get
the
grant.
We
may
may
not
get
the
funding,
but
assuming
based
on
trends
that
we
get
the
funding.
We
have
I
think
for
category
9
projects
for
bicycle
and
pedestrian
trails
in
the
plan
in
the
fiscally
constrained
list
for
transit.
J
K
J
B
K
J
Basically,
for
the
for
the
roadside,
we
do
traffic
analysis,
we
have
a
travel
demand
model
and
we
can
take
a
particular
project,
say
a
road
widening
or
a
new
road
compared
the
no
build
to
the
build
process
and
crunch
some
numbers
for
transit.
We
cannot
do
that
with
the
model,
with
the
tools
that
we
have,
so
that
we
evaluate
transit
separately
and
that's
why,
generally,
the
trendy
carrier
would
just
give
the
money
to
the
transit
agency.
G
J
G
Add
just
a
little
bit
of
context
as
well
and
if
I'm
guessing
your
question,
it's
how
much
of
this
transportation
plan
in
the
future
is
considering
alternative
modes
of
driving
and
what
we're
doing
right
now
having
started
the
active
transportation
plan
will
give
us
a
list
of
projects
and
that
will
be
added
to
these
product
to
these
project
lists
as
we
go
into
the
future.
So
we
did
identify
already
some
projects
on
the
constraint
on
constrain
list
well,
but
we
need
more.
G
We
need
more
plans
and
projects
that
were
going
to
implement
and
the
plan
that
were
implementing
that
we're
starting
right
now
the
act
transition
plan,
the
result
of
that
will
be
a
one
of
the
results-
will
be
a
list
of
projects
of
hey.
These
are
things
we
could
do
in
the
city
that
you
know
would
make
sense
a
corridor
here,
bike
lanes
here
these
improvements
here
for
transit
and
then
that
would
feed
into
when
we
update
this
process.
So
we
have
an
even
better
list
of
projects
for
what
we
want
to
do
and.
K
Thank
you
for
that
explanation.
It's
insightful.
You
know
one
of
the
questions
I've
had
and
this
may
not
be
the
right
venue
for
it.
But
you
know
the
county
has
a
Aguila
system
and,
and
Alana
brings
in
a
lot
of
folks
from
around
the
county.
You
know
into
the
city
for
services
right
and
then
from
there.
My
question
is:
what
sort
of
cohesion
is
there
between
an
Metro
and
an
Aggie
last
that
were
able
to
kind
of
bring
it
I
left
to
this?
K
Current
currently,
mass
transit
in
Webb
County
in
the
city
of
Laredo
I
mean
you're,
you're,
writing
in
Metro
or
allowing
up
for
the
most
part,
because
you
have
to
not,
because
you
want
to
write
and
if
we
do
it
right,
it
will
be.
You
know,
like
a
German,
you
know
clock
you'll
be
able
to
set
your
watch
to
it.
It'll
be
you
know,
it'll
be
this.
K
You
know
bus
pass,
Wi-Fi
experience
where
you
can
be
productive
while
being
brought
into
town
it'll,
be
a
choice,
not
a
just
forced
option
and
so
I
know
we
all
kind
of
have
our
different
hats
but
I.
Think
as
it
relates
to
you
know,
mass
transit,
physical
mobility
is
social
mobility
and
if,
if
Alana
serves
so
much
of
that
part
of
the
county,
that
is
definitely
at
or
below
the
poverty
line
that
that's
a
springboard
to
get.
J
B
Of
this
plant
councilman,
the
Alaia
is
part
of
our
Technical
Committee,
so
they
were
involved
in
this
process,
the
entire
the
entire
way
through.
So
they
were
apprised
of
all
the
projects
they
were.
You
know,
given
the
call
object
so
that
they
could
send
us
and
any
projects
they
wanted
considered.
But
as
far
as
the
relationship
between
our
metro
and
them
I
probably
tries
it
will
be
better
able
to
speak
to
what
relationship
they
interact.
B
B
K
L
Briefly,
in
going
back
to
the
funds
that
they
were
inquiring
as
to
how
much
money
will
be
saved
from
text
or
directly
those
four
million
dollars
right
on
the
master
and
supporting
that
we
have
the
acceptance
of
six
hundred
and
eighty
nine
thousand
dollars
in
change
for
MNO
for
the
transit
system
and
just
to
the
point
of
reference
compared
to
our
operating
total
budget
of
sixty
million.
It's
about
four
percent.
What
will
receive
from
Texas,
just
just
as
a
reference?
L
K
L
I
L
L
Salas
and
LC
several
representatives
and
myself
and
going
back
to
the
budget
workshops,
you
don't
remember:
I,
request
the
authorization
from
from
City
Council
to
go
out
and
stick
those
partnerships.
So
we
can
build
up
our
transit
system
on
any
possible
way,
our
biggest
challenge
and
they're.
The
same
challenge
that
the
county
is
going
to
have
Liu
light
its
fleet,
its
facilities
and
takes
all
that
initial
capital
dollars.
So
join
some
network
myself
and
staff,
and
and
and
seeking
for
opportunity
for
funding
directly.
Next
up,
you
only
be
available
through
partnerships.
L
L
Mean
that
was
what
I
was
hitting.
We
had
those
conversations
with
LC.
We
had
this
conversation
with
County
representatives,
and
so
today
we
have
the
project
and
it's
gonna
be
part
of
the
legislative
agenda.
For
this
era.
Widow
we're
gonna,
try
to
seek
funding
to
build
eight
half
and
the
South
LC
has
offered
the
between
to
use
their
land
as
they
match.
My
detective
after
years,
and
and
seeking
funding
in
different
Frances
to
come
up
with
a
project.
L
Gonna
be
zero
out
of
pocket
for
the
city,
zero
out
of
pocket
for
the
county
and
at
this
point,
zero
out
of
pocket,
except
for
the
land
for
LC,
have
a
facility
where
we
can
put
circulator
where
we
can
provide
the
services
for
the
students
or
the
residents
of
the
possibly
of
your
Grabow.
And
it's
a
nice
go
and
some
of
this.
L
That's
right,
depending
on
the
match
and
again
this
is
all
preliminary
I
mean,
might
be
a
land
value
of
three
million
dollars.
If
that's
going
to
be
the
in
kind
match,
we
can
possibly
apply
for
ten
million
dollars,
so
we
can
be
competitive
with
other
cities
with
our
attorneys
are
going
to
be
applying
for
these
grants.
So
today,
I
can
tell
you
you
know
we're
working
on
those
partnerships
and
the
county
is
very
active
with
us
and
we're
definitely
looking
forward
because
we're
gonna
realize
efficiencies.
L
A
Unheard
motion
carries
unanimously.
Thank
you.
Going
back
to
item
4a
that
approval
of
the
minutes
for
the
meeting
held
on
December,
the
16th
2019.
What
says
this
commission
so
move
did.
There's
no
changes,
there's
a
motion,
a
second
discussion,
all
those
in
favor
say
aye
all
right.
Any
opposed,
not
heard
motion
carries
unanimously.
Thank
you
item
4b
discussion
with
possible
action
on
the
FDA
policy
committee
member
vacancy
proposed
bylaws
amendment.
Yes,.
G
We
were
making
some
changes
to
our
bylaws
and
one
of
those
was
regarding
the
positions
that
are
on
the
committee.
We've
waited
to
bring
you
the
adoption
of
the
changes,
because
we'd
like
to
bring
to
you
all
at
once.
You
don't
have
to
change
bylaws,
and
one
of
those
changes
you
recall
was
about
how
many
members
are
required
to
make
a
quorum
to
help
us
make
or
more
frequently
so
that'll
be
one
of
the
changes.
The
other
change
was
the
name.
G
We
are
going
with
a
doe
and
Webb
County
area
NPO
and
unless
you
all
want
to
change
it
and
that
the
final
one
was
about
the
infield
positions,
we
have
three
positions
from
the
city,
three
from
the
county
and
one
from
the
radio
mass
transit
board,
and
there
are
two
in
our
current
organization.
We
have
two
from
text
on
the
District
Engineer
and
the
district
administrator.
G
Well,
now,
there's
only
a
district
engineer
who
also
serves
as
the
district
administrator
and
so
text
out
is
offered
to
allow
the
board
to
appoint
somebody
else
to
the
to
that
position
and
I
just
wanted
to
bring
up
this
slide
again.
You
saw
this.
This
was
from
a
survey
of
mpos
conducted
across
the
country
to
show
several
examples
of
board
members
that
our
board
positions
you
can
see.
Most
of
them
are
local
city,
elected
officials,
but
there's
also
a
lot
of
differently
disappointed
organizations
that
serve
on
it.
G
K
G
G
One
I
mean
there's
an
open
discussion
for
y'all
I'm
just
here
to
provide
information,
but
but
the
recommendation
and
the
Technical
Committee
and
also
my
recommendation
would
be
to
take
another
look
at
the
RMA
and
the
reason
is
because
they
they're
their
board
is
is
devised
equally
of
all
the
district
and
precincts.
So
they
should
be
representing
the
city
and
county
equally,
and
this
is
their
mission-
I
mean
it's
a
like
100%
overlap
with
what
we
do
in
the
NPO
commission.
G
C
Know
but
I
thought
we
would
have
put
it
they
put
up.
There's
three
City
Council,
three
members
from
the
from
the
county.
One
textile
engineer
and
wanted
to
be
decided
want
to
be
decided.
Yes,
but
you
still
have
it
the
way
it
was
and
now
you're
talking
about
how
other
counties
have
it,
and
we
already
had
that
discussion
we're
here,
I've
come
for,
though
we
were
an
adopter
rule
that
we're
going
to
take
a
quorum
of
only
four.
We.
K
H
C
G
K
K
M
G
I
reached
out
to
talk
to
them
just
to
say
is
that
something
you
would
even
consider,
and
they
said
you
know
as
a
board,
we
could
make
an
appointment.
Just
like
the
council
has
the
in
the
county
has
the
ability
to
appoint
and
they're
typically
appointing
people
who
serve
on
those
councils
on
committee,
so
it
could
be.
C
G
K
Is
so
just
a
suggestion,
just
a
suggestion
so
that
we
kind
of
have
the
door
go
okay,
work
off
of
then
and
then
a
little
balance.
If
you
will,
since
it's
county
and
city
combined
and
to
be
fair,
the
the
area
right
is
primarily,
you
know
the
the
sea
limits,
ETJ
and
bits
and
pieces
of
the
county,
but
it's
not
the
the
whole
of
the
county,
but
it
certainly
is
by
all
accounts,
a
large
portion
of
the
tax
base
and
a
large
portion
of
the
populations
that
we
serve.
K
G
K
G
K
A
L
G
North
I
believe
is
called
the
North
Laredo
transportation
study.
That's
something
that
typically
a
MPO
would
be
undertaking,
and
you
know
there
could
be
more
I
mean
they're
they're
reaching
out
to
us,
but
that's
definitely
something
where
there's
100
percent
overlap
and
typically
it's
the
MPO
performing
those
types
of
studies
and
they
they've
taken
the
initiative
and
started
doing
that
study
because
we.
E
A
E
E
Oh,
it
takes
five,
that's
right.
They
all
have
to
have
five
for
quorum,
so
we
have
to
have
three
and
that's
kind
of
what
all
of
us
have
been
kind
of
going
back
and
forth.
Even
our
attorneys
have
been
looking
into
I
just
want
to
make
sure
we're
not
getting
into
slippery
slopes
here.
If
we're
talking
about
already
changing,
you
know
the
bottoms
as
one
of
the
proposals
it.
G
E
No,
my
biggest
so
forget
about
the
city.
Let's
just
move
the
county
I'm
talking
about
the
county
commissioners
court.
It
takes
three
votes.
The
majority
vote
to
be.
You
got
your
three
votes.
You'll
change,
whatever
you'd
like
I'm
here,
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
it,
because
we
have
three
sitting
up
here.
We
don't
have
a
problem,
but
we're
not
breaking
any
laws
by
having
three
members
of
Commissioner's
Court
in
your.
K
E
K
M
C
K
H
D
Of
the
prison
okay
mayor,
if
I
may,
before
we
get
going,
I
text
that
will
be
up
streaming
from
the
boat,
whatever
y'all
do
decide,
but
before
I
get
going
on.
Mr.
Steinman
I
want
to
applaud
your
efforts
in
the
technical
committee,
I
think
you're
taking
great
bounds
and
getting
that
in
the
right
direction.
Moving
forward
a
lot
of
items,
our
body
already,
almost
at
the
point
we
just
won
on
them,
I
want
to
applaud
your
efforts.
Are
you
doing
a
tremendous
job
and
the
way
you're
communicating
with
text?
Now?
Thank
you
for
that.
D
A
couple
of
things
that
the
attorney
mr.
Doggett
in
miss
Velma
great
point
I
think
both
of
them
elected
officials
is
always
good,
onion
peels,
although
not
in
the
bylaws,
it's
good.
When
you
haven't
liked
the
fish
on
that
reference
in
several
groups
of
people
again
I
do
have
concerns
with
the
RMA
because
of
boats
that
come
back
and
forth.
That
is
a
good
statement.
I
will
say
that
the
RMA
the
MPO
is
in
the
valley,
as
you
referenced
went
far,
have
combined
I,
think
they're
down
to
38
members
and
you're
right.
D
It
is
a
surface.
The
plan
is
to
continue
to
downsize
it,
which
is
a
great
opportunity
and
just
to
clarify
dispensation
is
vacant,
takes
up
their
not
offer
to
give
the
position
up.
There
was
some
rumblings
about
who
was
going
to
replace
the
toy
at
that
point,
I
decided
not
to
fill
the
spot.
We
will
go
with
whatever
direction
of
the
impurity
sizable
choose
to
go
on.
D
If
you
believe
in
the
reduction
of
members
in
the
MPO
with
a
strong
technical
committee,
will
work-
perhaps
not
maybe
five,
maybe
seven
at
this
point
and
then
work
from
that.
But
all
valid
points
point
being
is
a
text
level
support
every
decision
you
make
and
I
will
be
abstaining
from
this
one
whatever
it
is.
I
appreciate.
C
A
C
Motion
then,
was
to
three
City
of
Laredo
three
Webb
County,
one
mass
transit
board,
one
takes
dot,
engineer,
I
wanted
to
be
determined
and
then
forward
to
create
a
quorum.
I
thought
that's
what
we
instructed
you
all
to
bring
back.
I
thought
this
was
the
final
vote
on
that.
So
we
can
make
sure
that
we
could
have
a
quorum
future
for.
A
C
C
C
So
we
want
somebody
from
the
transfer
convene
I
thought
the
thought
was
we
wanted
somebody
from
the
transportation
industry
now
if
it
needs
to
be,
you
know,
elected
official
I,
don't
know
what
you
do
unless
you
put
a
real
tolerance,
and
these
are
one
of
them
in
but
again,
but
well
move
three
positions
from
Laredo
three
position:
what
County
one
pollution
master
engine
board,
one
kicks
not
engineer
and
one
person
to
be
determined,
here's
a
seat
and
then
the
other
for
the
four
members.
So
to
make
the
last.
A
B
E
Might
want
to
start
doing
oh
okay,
but
hold
on
she's
my
charts.
Okay,
you
don't
mind,
you
don't
mind
what
I'd
like
to
do
or
what
you
all
would
like
to
start
doing.
Maybe
is
discussion
impossible,
actually
limpio
policy
committee,
member
of
agency
and
any
other
matters
incident
there
to
that
other.
It
matters
incident
there.
We
could
have
knocked
it
down
so
maybe
for
the
next
time
just
start
putting
in
any
other
matters
incident
there
too.
B
L
L
A
F
F
F
C
F
Expecting
to
get
that,
hopefully,
by
the
end
of
this
month,
hopefully
by
next
NPO
meeting
we'll
have
it
documented,
signed
and
done
the
issue
which
I
did
want
to
get
to,
because
there
were
some
quest
why
the
land
had
not
been
donated
yet
etc,
etc.
The
the
issue
that
we
have
and
mr.
Silas
itis
here
now
so
he
can
vet
what
I'm
saying
we
know
where
we
want
the
road
to
go,
but
we
don't
know
where
the
road
is
going
to
go.
F
That
is
the
whole
process
that
we
are
doing
right
now
with
the
environmental
assessment,
the
EA,
which
we
are
well
on.
The
way
to
doing
we've
just
submitted
the
90
percent
mark
and
and
perhaps
Luis
bettas
got
to
see
or
others
at
the
county
can
speak
to
that,
but
they
were
gathering
those
within
the
last
week
and
a
half
so
we're
at
90
percent
submission
or
there
abouts,
with
TxDOT
as
to
where
the
engineers
believe
the
roads
are.
F
The
road
is
best
set
to
go
and
then,
through
this
environmental
assessment
process,
techstop
will
be
assessing
that
and
the
path
and
how
it
avoids
a
different
type
of
graph
or
topology
or
sorry
topography.
The
you
know
may
be
different:
immovable
objects
like
overhead
electric
lines
of
the
the
the
towers,
etc
and
then,
at
the
end
of
the
EA,
they
will
hopefully
produce
a
finding
of
non
significant
environmental
impact,
and
we
will
then
have
the
metes
and
bounds
for
the
eight
point
one
month
and.
F
A
A
F
D
D
I
think
he's
actually
correct
the
90%,
where
they're
I
don't
expect
to
anticipate
the
question
will
be
do
anticipating
and
coming
up
in
that
environment,
which
I
don't
think
there
is
out
there.
That's
gonna,
throw
a
snap
through
into
the
whole
issue,
I
assume
that
by
the
time
the
environment
assessment
is
cleared,
the
schematic
should
pretty
much
be
well
in
place
where
we
know
more
or
less
where
it's
gonna
be
I,
don't
anticipate
a
very
long
time
again,
we're
not
doing
the
work
for,
and
we
come
over
seen
it.
D
So
let
me
start
by
saying:
that's:
every
year
that
collects
in
department
transportation
selects
an
individual
who
is
simplify
the
college's
of
a
leader,
a
trend
maker
and
Garino
transportation.
A
person
who
had
body
is
a
personification
of
an
alternate
transportation
partner
for
who's,
without
constant
unwavering
support.
Thanks
I
will
not
be
able
to
improve
the
transportation
needs
to
the
communities
across
Texas.
This
is
what
the
road
hands
award
entitles
and
believe
it
or
not.
One
of
those
individuals
is
in
our
mist.
D
Last
year,
the
2019
award
of
the
recipients
of
the
wrote
an
award
where
the
Honorable
Larry
Phillips,

the
Honorable
Kevin

Today
joining
these
distinguished
ranks
of
these
individuals,
as
mentioned
above,
is
such
a
leader
in
Laredo
to
name
a
few
of
his
accomplishments.
D
This
individual
has
been
part
of
the
free
and
secure
trade
normally
referred
to
as
fast
lanes
at
the
world
trade
bridge
to
help
the
city
maintain
a
position
and
world

by
improving
operational

by
the

to
the

by
Tech's,
department,

and
additional
2.3

in
matching

D
This
individual
has
promoted
the
expansion
of
the
binational
airport
federal
inspection
facility
operations
to
allow
for
consolidated
shipping,
whereby
this
person
in
city
management
and
customer
leaders
travel
to
Mexico,
with
key
Mexican
officials
to
promote
the
concept
of
consolidating
shipping.
The
recipient
of
the
award
is
also
a
proponent
of
airport
improvement
projects
that
are
ongoing.
The
cargo,
a
pre-construction

with
a

D
He
was
also
an
integral
part
of
the
transportation
projects
for
Laredo
approval
at
Texas,
Department,
Transportation
Commission
in
late
August
2019.
That's
part
of
the
unified
transportation
plan,
which
excludes
220
million
dollars
for
the
transportation
projects
proposed
by
the
rail
metropolitan
organization
or
better
known
as

Without
further
ado.
C
A
A
You
know
we
do
what
I
was
elected
to
do
and
and
and
I'm
passionate
about
it
and
I'm
serious
about
it
and
there
one
night,
my
city
in
my
corset,
County
to
and
to
succeed
so
I
I
go
to
sleep
thinking
about
my
city
and
I,
wake
up
thinking
about
my
city
and
and
that's
that's
what
that's
what
we
do,
and
this
is
what
we
all
do
here.
So
you
know
we
all
play
roles
and
and
I
appreciate
sincerely
the
awarding
and
this
recognition
I.
C
Anywhere
in
the
agenda
to
do
it,
but
you'll
allow
me
just
to
recognize
David
and
his
staff
today
on
the
on
the
ribbon
cuttings
of
the
flyover
35,
you
know
on
budget
and
under
time
I
mean
before
due
date.
So
congratulations.
It
looks
like
a
wonderful
project,
a
wonderful
job
I
mean
the
people
are
already
using
it.
You
see
the
relief
use
that
you
know
the
the
frontage
roads,
it's
just
a
testament
to
to
you
and
all
your
crew,
everybody
here
in
pick
stock.
You
know,
give
yourselves
a
pat
on
the
back
working
with
everybody.
C
D
A
We
have
to
remind
ourselves
to
that
exit
is
huge.
It's
a
huge
department
for
the
state
of
Texas
that
you
all
have
so
much
responsibility
and-
and
you
all
have
so
much
stroke
to
to
kenny
Lanza,
so
hopefully,
with
your
help
and
the
help
of
other
types
of
people
here,
let's
keep
on
bringing
that
money.
C
K
K
K
A
About
it,
yeah
yeah
yeah,
that's
the
gist.
Let's
move
see
update
on
text
that
on
the
read
designation
of
the
age,
35
south
of
Victoria
Street,
also
known
as
a
poor
block
area,
including
the
state's
position
on
said
V,
designation
and
dr.
Martha,
my
penis.
D
D
I
would
say
that
this
item
could
probably
be
handled
rather
outside
the
appeal,
because
there
is
no
funds
in
pure
dollars
in
associated
with
it.
We
do
have
some
concerns
released,
read
designating
it
to
a
lower
facility
roadway
because
of
the
funding
concern.
We
drop
them
from
interstate
to
a
Farm
to
Market
Road.
We
cannot
allocate
certain
amount
of
monies
to
it.
D
If
we've
been
a
we've
been
approached
twice
once
for
a
park
area,
sidewalks
crosswalks
and
now
with
the
new
commercial
development
that
we're
all
for
we'd
be
happy
to
help
you
with
that
commercial
development.
I,
don't
think,
there's
a
need
to
designate
that
area,
but
I
think
it's
something
that
can
be
handled
outside
in
the
appeal
we
could
probably
handle
this
either
at
City,
Council
or
with
the
committee
within
ourselves
or
the
town
can
be,
but
to
bring
it
forth
to
redesignate.
D
K
K
Frankly,
as
it
relates
to
that
crossroads
of
MPO
and
text
and
and
and
council,
the
the
consensus
is
that
we
transition
away
from
a
park
which
would
essentially
be
an
island
in
the
middle
of
a
highway,
benefiting
frankly
at
this
current
point
in
time,
the
homeless
population
in
in
Laredo,
and
because
very
few
people
would
want
to
go
hang
out
in
the
park.
That's
in
the
middle
of
the
cars
rushing
by,
and
so
why
spend
millions
of
dollars
creating
a.
K
Now
you
take
that-
and
you
put
it
in
combination
with
the
already
multitude
of
ways
to
get
to
highway,
83,
south
59
and
as
well
as
359
and
Bob
bulik
loop
and
in
their
coalescence
with
IH
35.
It
is
in
the
nature
of
the
speed
because
the
freeway
ends,
but
the
highway
continues
right.
Well,
it's
it's
for
all
practical
purposes:
it's
not
it's
not
a
highway
anymore.
K
If
you
will
I,
don't
have
a
better
word
for
it
at
this
time,
but
I
think
that's
kind
of
direction
that
we're
going
and
what
we're
hoping
to
do
is
to
seek
and
and
build
upon,
the
goodwill
that
we've
been
establishing
with
with
frankly,
you
specifically
on
behalf
of
TxDOT
to
find
a
way
to
connect
the
the
the
segregated
elastica
neighborhood
and
the
downtown
business
district
that
we're
in
right
now
and
then
have
this
opportunity
come
to
fruition.
I
think
I
think
that
accurately
some
eise's,
our
our
analysis
on.
D
Drainage,
in
all
honesty-
and
thank
you
councilman
for
that-
a
description
or
definition
of
what
we're
trying
to
accomplish
their
work
that
we
want
to
support
that
read.
Designating
this
roadway
I,
don't
know
that
we're
going
to
get
away
from
textile
policy.
I
I,
don't
know
what
red
tape
you
might
want
to
mention,
but
we're
willing
to
help
make
this
happen,
no
matter
what
we
have
to
do.
I
just
don't
believe.
The
reflex
mission
at
this
point
is
something
viable
that
we
mean
yeah.
K
Not
at
this
point,
I
agree
incre,
but
it's
I
think
what
dr.
Martinez
was
hoping
to
accomplish
in
here
I'm,
going
out
on
a
limb
I'm,
not
really
directly
speaking
for
him,
but
just
kind
of
contemplating
that
logical
next
step
would
be
in
this
very
preliminary
juncture.
Would
it
be
something
that
you
know
TxDOT
would
be
willing
to
consider
it's
really
it's
kind
of
like
you
know.
Well,.
A
C
K
D
M
D
K
Mean
if
it's
gonna
be
a
very
you
know
robust.
You
know
wide
tax
base,
you
know
million
dollar
investment
as
it
as
it
at
least
appears
to
be
on
paper.
You
know,
taking
on
a
handful
of
streets,
isn't
such
an
ordeal?
I
mean
I,
realize
streets
are
liabilities,
there's
an
asset,
but
if
the,
if
the
juice
is
worth
the
squeeze,
will
then
of
me
and
certainly
something
we
come
contemplate,
but
yeah
yeah
agree
with
you
that
it
may
be
a
little
preliminary.
K
Obviously,
everything
starts
somewhere
and,
and
it
always
starts
in
a
preliminary
phase
and
so
I,
don't
think
necessarily
we
would
need
any
tech.
Stop
funding
I,
don't
think
we
need
any
NPO
funding.
I.
Think
it's!
The
the
agenda
item
was
for
the
purposes
of
getting
a
conversation
started,
and
so
at
tabling
seems
like
a
natural
thing
to
do
at
this
point
for
purposes
of
bringing
it
back
to
the
next
meeting.
But
if,
in
between
now
and
the
next
meeting,
I
know
you
and
dr.
Martinez
have
a
good
rapport.
K
A
A
C
B
B
A
L
L
The
once
you're
clear
that
we
have
right
now?
Is
it
wouldn't
plan?
I
mean
we
realize
that
we're
not
having
providers
shoot
that
we
expected
and
I
believe
I
mentioned
some
of
these.
Before
just
we
started
with
the
Friday
with
troop
at
transit
bands
refurbish,
they
don't
have
the
capacity
that
is
needed.
L
So
at
the
beginning
we
had
a
high
demand
high
ridership
people
really
liked
it,
because
we're
able
to
to
connect
those
mindflow's,
so
division
and
all
the
one
houses
and
all
employees
over
there,
but
we've
only
with
people
behind,
because
the
bass
did
not
have
space
and
they're
not
equipped
to
have
people
standing.
So
the
new
bands
should
be
arriving
soon.
The
the
ones
that
see
Council
approve
during
budget
once
we
put
those
two
surveys
will
have
a
capacity
to
transport
up
to
30
people
at
once.
L
L
Master
we
order
they're
gonna,
have
capacity
up
to
30
and
we're
confident.
That's
gonna
be
enough
to
keep
the
neighbors
and
the
employees
connecting
back
to
the
main
route
and
the
different
route
that
they
connect.
That
target,
like
Springfield
Delmar's,
tell
you
all
those
ever
be
able
to
connect
again
we're
not
where
we
need
to
be,
but
we
know
the
results
and
do.
L
The
mid
and
long
term
plan
is
to
have
a
a
mindful
schedule
in
north
circulator
than
this
out.
Circulator
now
circulate,
the
stars
are
clearly
gonna
be
enabled
once
and
hopefully
we're
gonna
get
that
point
in
going
with
a
lagna
and
all
that
that
we
took
discussed
earlier
so
we're
gonna
have
the
facility
and
that
that
point
would
have
to
work
on
funds
for
the
appointment.
L
A
G
Before
we
do,
I
just
want
to
make
an
announcement,
you
have
a
sheet
in
front
of
you,
I've
contacted
your
staff
for
you
directly.
There
is
a
conference
in
San
Antonio,
that's
related
to
active
transportation
and
it's
the
dates
of
the
conference
are
March,
25th
or
27th.
What
I'm
proposing
is
just
the
26
and
27.
That's
a
Thursday
and
Friday
the
go
up
early
morning
stay
over
Thursday
night
and
go
to
the
Friday,
and
then
we
come
back.
We
can
have
a
carpool
ban
or
you
can
take
your
own
vehicle.
Six.
G
L
G
C
D
L
G
That'd
be
great:
okay,
yes,
all
right!
Well,
on
the
previous
MPL
meeting,
we
had
a
presentation
on
the
bylaws
and
the
MPO
management,
and
you
all
wanted
to
have
just
a
separate
one
in
theater.
So
we
could
continue
the
conversation.
So
let
me
share
some
information.
We
talked
about
previously
a
little
more
since
then.
One
thing,
I
want
to
note,
is
I'm
gonna,
be
sending
an
email
to
y'all
directly
with
some
budgetary
stuff.
I
didn't
want
to
put
that
out,
because
it
would
include
salaries.
G
We
have
some
flexibility.
It's
one
of
the
other
things
we
can
talk
about
coming
up
is
the
flexibility
we
have
to
move
staff
in
between
the
NPO,
because
it's
part
of
the
planning
department
right
now.
That's
the
plan
staff
organization.
We've
got
those
positions
right
now
active
listed
and
worked
we're
hiring
and
interviewing
for
those,
so
possible
staff
organization.
If
the
NPO
at
some
point
goes
off
on
its
own
and
my
recommendation
would
be
yes
at
some
point
in
the
future,
you
should
look
at
having
your
own
NPO
I
mean
you're
a.
M
G
Pio,
director,
that's
appointed
by
directly
by
this
board
and
reports
this
board
in
that
position
in
that's
organization.
What
makes
sense
and
I
looked
at
this
a
few
ways
where
you
could
keep
the
most
staff
and
eliminate
the
fewest
amount
of
positions,
would
just
be
limiting
the
Pio
division
manager
position
and
having
an
NPO
director
and
I'll
send
the
budget
stuff
to
so
you
can
see
that
in
detail,
and
then
you
keep
those
remaining
three,
so
you
would
have
one
director
three
planners
in
one
support.
G
G
Staff
and
most
Inc
POS
use
that
money.
The
majority
for
administration
and
save
up
some
of
the
overtime
for
consultants.
In
the
past,
we've
been
using
a
fraction
staff
and
using
most
of
it
for
consultants,
so
I
suggested.
Let's
try
a
different
approach
where
we
bring
on
more
staff,
do
what
most
of
us
do
and
have
some
planning
capability
capacity
inside
and
then
still
consult
when
we
need
to
if
we
can
turn
the
projects
around
faster.
G
That
way,
so,
to
give
an
example,
we're
at
just
around
500,000
for
our
planning
grant
the
corpus
NPO
is
at
5:22,
and
this
is
what
their
organization
looks
like.
If
you
look
at
the
bottom
and
I've
reached
out
and
talked
with
about
their
organization,
they
have
a
Planning
Director,
have
a
senior
transportation
planner.
If
somebody
that
just
does
their
IT
and
web
admin,
they
have
a
GIS
manager
and
then
support
person,
office
coordinator,
and
they
currently
have
a
vacant
transportation
planners.
G
G
Challenges
with
that
are,
as
we
discussed
last
time,
there's
if
the
MPO
doesn't
get
money
and
then
spend
it,
it
spends
somebody
else's
money
and
then
gets
reimbursed
so
that
somebody
else's
money
right
now
is
the
city.
The
city
is
the
fiscal
agent,
so
City
still
could
remain
the
fiscal
agent
under
this
scenario,
where
you
appoint
its
own
director
but
or
you
may
be
interested
in
asking
the
county
to
take
over
that
responsibility
of
being
the
fiscal
agent.
What
you
wouldn't
be
able
to
do
is
just
separate
that
fiscal
agent
off
into
its
own
organization.
G
G
We
very
much
meticulously
have
to
account
for
the
money
we're
spending
and
if
anything,
the
benefit
is
going.
The
other
way
the
NPO
is
getting
more
staff
support,
they're,
getting
the
use
of
the
the
building
space
for
free
one-time
charges,
he's
not
charging
rent
to
the
MPO
their
equipment
as
well,
like
our
main
printer,
which
the
city
pays
for.
So
there
are
some
advantages
that
the
NPO
is
getting
being
housed
by
the
city.
G
Still
I
think
there
is
room
as
the
NPO
matures
to
have
its
own
director
that
responds
directly
and
a
full-time
director,
because
that
it's
a
lot
to
be
both
the
City
Planning
Director
and
the
NPO
director.
It's
an
exciting
responsibility,
I'm
happy
to
be
in,
but
my
goal
is
to
get
the
staff
on
board
train
the
MPO
staff,
so
they
can
start
doing
some
a
lot
of
these
projects.
G
In-House
respond,
much
quicker
to
inquiries
that
you
have
staff
that
you'll
have
that
you
can
assign
you
can
assign
projects,
get
them
trained
over
the
next
two
years
and
then
they're
in
a
position
to
turn
it
over
to
a
director
that
you
can
hire.
He
could
take
that
home.
He
or
she
could
take
that
on
full-time.
E
This
has
nothing
I
preface
by
saying
that
this
has
nothing
to
do
with
a
gentleman
Irby.
You
have
nothing.
This
has
nothing
to
do
with
you.
The
person
as
far
as
our
director
and
Peele
director
have
no
problems
actually
I've
been
pretty.
It's
been
pretty
good
at
which,
since
you've
since
you've
been
doing
a
really
good
job,
I
appreciate
it,
but
I
don't
understand
why
we
have
to
wait
a
couple
years.
I
just
think
that
those
are
little
things
that
happen.
E
That's
my
feeling,
that's
why
we
have
the
monies
as
far
as
the
reimbursement
as
far
as
housing,
we
don't
have
a
problem
at
the
city
of
Laredo
has
a
problem
with
it.
We
don't
have
a
problem
sharing
whatever
we
need
to
share
and
I
speak
that
because
I
know
we've
discussed
the
last
night
in
here.
So
I
do
have
a
problem
with
it
weighed
in
a
couple
of
years.
I
don't
understand
why
we
have
to
wait
so
long,
but
that's
my
position
on.
C
Don't
mind
sharing
the
personnel
because
I
don't
think,
there's
that
much
work,
I'm,
not
sure
I
mean
I'm
sure
you
know
you
got
our
hands
full,
but
between
two
full-time
positions.
You
know
I
like
to
always
have
a
little
money
reserve
in
case.
We
do
need
that
consultant.
You
know,
because
here
we
gave
you
all
the
money.
We
have
no
money
left
if
we
need
something,
that's
going
to
be
outsourced
so
well.
G
C
G
C
Also,
you
know
sometimes
you're
asking
for
you're
asking
for
expertise
and
I
just
say
you
know
we
can't
hire
planners.
You
know
platter
to
platter
threes.
That
doesn't
mean
they
have
the
knowledge,
their
expertise
to
go
out
and
do
that
job.
You
know
if
you
want
to
do
that
traffic
study
or
this
light,
synchronization
or
whatever
it
is
I,
don't
think
you're
planning
trees
can
do
that
to.
G
Speak
to
we
have
a
large
reserve
that
we're
not
spending
all
that
reserve.
We
still
have
that
reserve
there
and
we're
not.
Even
if
we
filled
all
these
positions,
we're
not
using
up
all
of
our
planning
grant.
We
get
each
year
we're
just
putting
up
80%
of
it
so
that
we
have
a
reserve
that
slowly
builds
on
top
of
the
reserve.
The
chunk
a
million
dollars
plus
that's
there
that
we're
not
proposing
to
use
I
just.
A
K
K
At
the
same
time,
I
see
the
wisdom
of
what
you're
saying,
which
is
you
know,
hold
on:
let's,
let's
build
that
team
out,
so
that
were
not
so
dependent
on
consultants,
because
historically
as
a
city
as
well,
you
know
because
we
are
on
the
frontier
so
far
from
civilization.
It
seems
like
at
times
that
we
don't
have
a
pool
of
applicants
to
select
from
and
then
develop.
It
was
just
always,
you
know
very
consultant,
heavy
and
and
were
currently
I
think
seeing
the
benefits.
K
Look
at
the
city,
not
just
in
your
department
but
in
other
departments
as
well,
where
we've
just
decided
to
make
a
human
resources
investment
in
began,
to
groom
and
and
and
and
prepare
and
certify
our
own
human
capital,
so
that
we
have
that
agility
when
an
issue
pops
up
and
so
somewhere
in
between
what?
What
is
there
a
way
to
accelerate
that
process?
I
know
we've
been
dealing
with
and
you
know
I've
had
this
discussion
as
it
relates
to
internally
within
your
own
department.
K
K
G
M
G
Of
the
responsibilities
change
when
you
get
new
people
in
you
know
because
expertise
has
changed
so
once
we
have
it.
Basically,
whatever
you
recommend,
whatever
you
decide,
of
course,
I'm
gonna
I'm
gonna
do
my
best
to
fulfill
that
due
to
you
whatever
time
when
you
give
it,
but
you're.
Also
wanting
me
to
give
you
recommendation
my
recommendation,
based
on
my
organization.
Experience
with
planning
departments
across
the
country
would
be
let's
get
a
team
in
place
and
then
turn
that
over
to
new
management,
rather
than
bringing
a
new
management
without
even
a
team,
you.
M
A
You
can't
find
somebody
that
can
take
a
Liberty
errand
and
if
I
can
read
they,
you
know
the
county.
Folks
and
I
know:
I've
listened
to
the
judge
and
Commission
I
think
I
I
kind
of
get
what
they're
saying.
Basically,
you
know
they
want
someone,
you
know
autonomous,
you
know
independent
they
possibly
and
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong,
I
perceived.
Maybe
it's
a
two
City
slanted
simply
because
that's
the
way
it
was
structured
and
I
mean
and
that's
the
way
it
was
operate.
It
continues
to
be
operated.
A
C
I
mean
it's
it's
difficult
because
of
the
scope
of
work,
the
type
of
work
you
know,
I
looked
at,
you
know,
say
the
army,
the
army
right
away.
They
wanted
to
hire
an
executive
director.
They
wanted
90
people.
You
know
all
this
tensed
you're
too
small.
You
can't
do
that.
You
know
I
said
let
us
lend
you
what
we
have
and
it
was.
There
was
the
first
Chairman's
problem
with
that.
C
C
Go
to
light
synchronization,
you
go
what
you
know,
maybe
that
it's
some
sort
of
traffic
study,
I,
don't
know
what
you
could
do
with
those
planners
and
what
you
can't
do
with
those
letters.
But
what
I
don't
like
is
to
hire
people
and
not
not
simpler.
You
know
not
not.
Have
them
be
fulfilled,
having
something
to
do
and
look
forward
to
every
single
day
if
I
made.
K
Em
in
and
I,
don't
think
any
of
us
like
to
you
know
have
folks,
just
standing
around
I
mean
I
agree
with
that
statement.
Hundred
percent
and
and
and
I
don't
I
know
that.
Wasn't
the
thrust
of
your
your
your
point:
I
I've
seen
and
spoken
with
MPO
/
city
planning
staff
over
the
years
and
it
it
seems
like
there's
a
ton
of
work.
You
know
it
seems
like
some
of
those
gray
hairs.
Let's
get
that
may
very
well
be
related
to
the
overwhelming
amount
of
work
and
it
just
the
fact
I
mean
just
I.
K
Think
our
own
planning
department
is
kind
of
a
reflection
of
the
MPO
planning
department.
If
you
will,
if
such
a
thing
even
exists
in
in
in
just
four
years,
we
you
know
our
planning
director
wasn't
certified
the
support
staff
didn't
get
recertified.
There
was
just
not
an
investment
in
long-term
planning,
transportation
planning,
mass
transit
planning,
active
transit
planning,
I
mean
it
was
kind
of
like
planning,
SH
Manning.
K
It
was
a
footnote,
and
so
now
we
have
a
you
know:
card-carrying
planner,
a
AICP
I
believe
is
what
the
acronym
is
and
and
I
and
I
can
see
the
just.
The
investment
from
in
current
staff
and
in
staff
development
I
see
some
new
faces
as
well,
and
I
see
this.
This
shift
in
culture
from
the
planning
department
to
say,
okay
and
in
council.
K
Looking
at
some
really,
you
know,
you
know
the
intermediate
loop
outer
loop,
like
we're,
looking
at
some
pretty
heavy
lists
and
to
just
be
reliant
upon
tech
stock
to
just
be
reliant
upon
consultants
and
to
not
be
able
to
have
some
control
over
our
own
destiny.
To
me
is
a
little
disconcerting.
I
I
think
that
by
having
us
and
I
don't
mean
and
I
think
this
I
think
we've
all
been
really
great
about
not
having
this
a
imaginary
line
of
County
versus
City
I.
K
K
But
I
do
know
that
if
this
MPO
had
its
own
set
of
staff
that
we
could
rely
upon
to
have
to
vet
a
lot
of
these
issues,
you
know,
for
instance,
we
could
have.
If
we
had
our
own
staff,
they
could
have
already
approached
mr.
Silas,
not
at
X
dot
and
said:
hey
yeah,
the
downtown
blocks.
You
know
this
is
this,
and
this
is
that,
yes,.
C
I,
just
don't
know
how
how
much
staff
you
need.
Give
me
one
too,
like
you,
think
and
I
don't
mind
having
five
stars.
If
they're
gonna
do
part-time
work
for
you,
that's
really,
so
maybe
we
just
hire.
We
give
those
FTEs
to
you.
I
don't
have
a
problem.
Maybe
we
just
need
the
executive
director
and
assistant
director
and
somewhere
in
between
in
the
in
the
in
yeah,
there's
no
lying
there,
there's
no,
it's
Brown
versus
City,
no,
its
appeal,
and
so
the
the
I
guess.
K
The
the
what
what
I
think
I'm
hearing
but
I
think
I'm
hearing
is
okay.
So
what
data
do
we
have
to
support
right?
The
you
know
the
X
number
of
FTEs.
What's
the
best
rubric,
you
know,
for
you
know
assembling
that
team
I
kind
of
default
back
to-
and
this
is
you
know-
a
fault
of
mine
because
I'm
assuming
right
but
I
I,
just
personally
default
back
to
the
fact
that
this
is
the
biggest
inland
port
in
the
United
States.
It
happens
to
have
an
MPO
that
to
address
the
different
transportation
complexities.
K
A
C
K
No
no
I'm
saying
perhaps
there
is,
you
know,
obviously
some
overlap
because
we
have
a
planning
department,
you
all
have
a
planning
department
right,
but
maybe
a
a
wheelhouse
that
coordinates.
You
know
all
of
our
collective
planning
activities
and
maybe
maybe
the
better
model
would
be
to
have.
You
know
MPO
to
have
its
own.
You
know
MPO
staff
and
MPO
director
and
have
there
be
some,
you
know,
coalescence
it'd
be
like
a
are.
C
C
C
G
G
Every
month
we
decide
how
much
of
each
person's
position
is
paid
for
by,
but
it's
all
right
now
we
don't
have
extra
staff
to
assign
feel
that's
the
advantage
of
where
it
is
house
now
and
I'm.
The
director
of
both
I
don't
have
to
ask
another
director
to
do
that.
I
can
say
we
need
this
person
right
now.
That's
what
we're
doing
60%
of
our
newest
plan
or
three
position
is
working
on
the
NPO
till
we
get
longer-term
in
just
about.
C
G
G
We
we
are
working
on
it.
This
would
be
a
jeaious
plan
or
a
planner.
That's
a
lot
of
experience.
Our
planners.
We
currently
has
a
lot
of
we
read
well
already
to
get.
Somebody
has
a
lot
of
great
science
experience
and
then
an
active
transportation
planner
having
somebody
who's
only
responsibility,
not
only
but
whose
main
responsibility
is
to
promote
active
transportation,
biking
and
bicycling,
pedestrian
access,
transit
and
focused
on.
C
C
G
C
G
G
C
Don't
have
to
I,
don't
have
I
really
don't
have
any
criticism
within.
You
know
I'm,
just
saying
that
what
kind
of
what
where's
the
data
that
supports
those
moves,
the
data
that
supports
it
independently
with
doing
two
jobs,
city
and
county
I
mean
city.
An
MPO
I
am
no
problem
because
you're
gonna
keep
them
busy,
but
I
think
you
know.
If
we
pulled
like
you
say
we
pulled
the
net
so
to
the
sides,
all
right.
Here's
you
know
new
appeal
director.
Here's
your
three
staff
numbers,
they're
gonna
sit
there.
G
If
I'm,
if
I
can't
just
for
one
minute
more
personalized
the
vast
majority
of
explore
than
anybody
else
about
what
the
impure
I
would
like
her
to
speak
with
you're
calling
for
all
the
work,
that's
been
done
by
consults
and
all
the
work
that
hasn't
been
done,
because
we
we
haven't
been
able
to
get
consultants
on
it
and
we
don't
have
staff
Vanessa
to
answer
that
question.
Do
you
think
there
is
enough
work
for
this
staff
that
we've
outlined
well.
