A

I know that there was a couple of departments that uh listed on here that there was no master plan submitted or approved. Do you want to speak on that uh planning director.

B

Yes, mr chairman, so the issue here is: is access to the highway and it's very limited, and so in the discussion, the the master plan that was being proposed did not meet the access requirements that we would need so that it was just not working out for him. So what we have here in front of you today is what txdot and the city right believe is. It will work the rest of it they're, leaving it for another day.

B

They have a lot of work to do with that, the rest of the property they're going to have to figure out how to get some roads in there. Out of there, that's going to be a bigger picture discussion for them to do, but at this time that master plan has been disposed of. So this is the only thing they're bringing this is the only thing they have approved for so there is unless no master. This is their masters. This is it right here. This is what they're working with.

I

And you have letters from the county that say that they will provide them with water.

B

Yes, we do, we have.

I

And you have letters from the city saying that they're going to pick up the garments.

B

The city is aware: they're picking up the garbage, they're working out the billing situation, but they are aware of this, this development and where it's located and they are committed to picking up the trash. Yes.

A

Okay, does anybody else have any questions?

A

I got one last question. I guess uh is text not going to require an acceleration length or.

A

I mean that is the interest of real, that one everybody's coming off of 83 so and you have 191 lots.

L

Mr chevy you're pretty good. Yes,.

A

Yes, no, we have.

L

Them in the construction plans, the acceleration deceleration acceleration, that's taken care of.

L

A

You're gonna, basically, the traffic on this particular uh development is coming off into the access road. That's going in and it's gonna go back to the light and then turn around. Is that or are you? Are you going to be granted.

L

A

L

We're at another lane yeah you're.

A

Going to be going southbound when you get out of the subdivision.

L

And then also acceleration, okay, okay,.

I

And you have a letter from tech staff that says that.

L

No, they don't issue letters, they don't issue letters for approval. Yes, that's what I understand.

B

Yeah but we've been in contact with them, and we've had several meetings with them to talk about this. They have.

A

To approve their entrance into their roadway, so it's a text that call on what they want yeah for improvements.

M

From mr guzman.

B

B

I guess my pay grade only gets me so high in the in the chain, but he's the one who handles the the construction party.

A

Okay, any other questions.

N

So I guess one of the biggest concerns here is, I guess, like the the agreements, but all the agreements have been made correct. Yes, so everything has been talked through through the county through the city, yeah.

B

I was actually coming from from this commission, okay for them to do that. So yes, I have that if.

K

I made your honor, I believe I attached the county letter within the packet.

N

So anything that that was uh in question has been ratified. They've met everything, so it seems everything is in order for this project to continue. Yes, sir, I did refuse it.

I

Okay, the only concern I have is that the subdivision and its roads don't interconnect with the city of new orleans.

B

So there will be one connection uh that runs by school. I don't know if you want to put it up on the screen.

N

You want to point it out.

L

That goes back, I mean that's pretty much the only one there's: where else can we connect to get back to rio? Bravo, there's no other.

B

So what you're going to do is you're going to connect and then go south yeah. Yes, there's going to be one out to to rio.

L

That's the only one, that's your place. Where else you can't do it in the world. Yes,.

A

Oh okay: where is the school up there? What else can you point out.

B

Do you see the detention pond? That's uh on the left, my glasses on right now.

L

There's what's the weather, okay,.

B

Amanda, can you point it out.

J

J

N

And since this is going to be now considered the new master plan, that's correct the amount of construction that they have it's already. It's also going to be capable of supporting the water with the agreement that they have with the uravu and the trash pickup. Everything is in it. This.

B

N

100 pretty much supportive is what we have.

B

Yes, the agreement is actually with webb county for the water all right.

M

um Is the permitting that may be done by the city?

M

Is the permitting gonna be done by the city.
