Yes,
along
with
Abel
city
hat,
in
order
for
this
presentation
and
in
general,
the
idea
and
preparing
for
this
presentation
was
to
start
putting
the
plan
presenting
the
plan
that
we
need
to
move
forward
with
in
terms
of
the
terms
given
the
new
reality
that
we
have
in
that
one
funding
coming
into
the
tours.
It's
going
to,
it
has
been
slow
and
will
actually
be
slower.
Given
the
economic
situation.
A
We
don't
want
to
leave
the
project
it.
The
projects,
framework
and
skeleton
was
presented
already
and
we
think
it's
something
we
can
work
with,
but
there
may
be
a
matter
of
adjusting
and
maybe
be
more
economic,
economical
about
how
we
move
forward
with
the
project,
and
so
in
that
kind
of
a
background
able
city
was
a
was
able
to
put
together
a
presentation
it
takes
us
gives
us
a
little
bit
of
background
of
where
the
ters
is
in
terms
of
the
organization's
in
the
downtown
area
or
the
area.
A

D
B
G

B
D
F
D
District
eight
boundaries,
a
historic
districts,
and
there
are
three
of
them:
there's
the
apse
boundary,
the
D
boundary,
which
has
been
created
and
not
activated
the
tour's
number
one
boundary
and
the
LMS
Lorado
main
street
boundary
a
zoning
district
boundary
and
the
central
business
district
boundary.
That's
you
know
in
any
in
any
city.
D
B
D
There's
a
ecosystem
related
supported
and
competing
organizations.
So
you
could
you
imagine
the
ters
in
the
center.
There
are
a
lot
of
organizations
that
exist
around
the
tours
that
essentially
are
either
related
to
each
other,
they're
supportive
at
each
other
or
competing
with
each
other.
But
when
I
say
competing,
it's
not
in
a
pejorative
sense.
D
Essentially,
they
are
all
related
in
in
in
the
idea
to
the
tours
and
that
they
are
are
there
are
stakeholders
within
within
the
mission
of
the
tours.
So
in
terms
of
nonprofits,
we
have
Laredo
Main
Street
Webb,
County,
Heritage
Lorado
Center
for
the
arch
we
have.
We
have
my
1,
we
have
a
cultural
district,
that's
being
formed,
I,
don't
know
where
that
is
right.
Now,
exactly
if
it's
going
to
be
its
own
organization
or
it's
going
to
live
within
other
organizations
from
the
public
sector,
we
have,
of
course,
the
county
and
the
city
Laredo
College.
D
The
management
district
is
a
public
entity,
it's
a
subdivision
of,
but
it's
you
know
it's
under
the
city
and
we
have
local
government
corporations
like
in
Metro
and
Housing
Authority.
All
of
these
are
our
the
ecosystem.
This
is
the
ecosystem
that
the
ters
lives
in
in
the
downtown
area
in
terms
of
organizations
both
nonprofits
and
public
sector,
so
the
ecosystem,
diverse
private
sector
stakeholders
in
the
downtown
area
and
even
on
which
is
the
the
essential
first
phase,
so
to
speak,
of
the
project.
D
There's
retail,
there's
wholesale.
There's
restaurants
and
bars
professional
services,
hotels,
banks,
health,
health
service
and
you
know,
and
other
types
of
State
and
other
sub
sectors
of
that
when
we
look
at
the
tours
we're.
Basically
those
are
our
stakeholders
either
in
a
microcosm
along
santosa
street
or
in
macro
for
the
whole
district
of
the
tours,
the
downtown
area.
D
I'm.
Sorry,
you
can't
see
this
so
in
place
right
now.
Today
there
are
long-term
funding
streams
that
the
city
has
availed
itself
of
and
exists
that
that
that
the
that
the
tours
can
can
lean
on
or
get
help
with,
if,
if
necessary,
there's
Sam's
and
use
tags,
there's
hotel-motel
tax,
there's
property
tax,
special
assessments
and
impact
fees.
That
would
be
the
management
district,
which
is
not
activated
and
property
tax
sales
tax
on
local
fee
wave,
which
is
the
Neighborhood
Empowerment
zone,.
D
D
Sorry,
not
the
reinvestment,
but
the
financing
plan
was
passed
and
within
that
document,
there's
there's
a
description
of
what
of
what
expenditures
can
be
made
on,
and
that
list
is
fairly
long.
It's
a
water
mains
and
a
sanitary
I'm
going
to
read
it,
because
these
are
what
you
can
spend
money
on
water
mains,
sanitary
sewer,
drainage,
roadway,
paving
traffic
signal,
ization,
sidewalks
street
capes,
Street
scapes
and
landscape
improvements,
signage
and
wayfinding,
public
art
lighting,
seating
and
furnishing
shade
structures,
power
and
communication
infrastructure
and
secure
and
security
infrastructure.
D
The
challenge
that
was
the
narrative
that
that
they
talked
about
in
in
the
plan
really
has
to
do
with
designing
a
project
around
the
challenges
that
that
are
faced
by
the
ters
and
many
of
those
challenges.
You
already
know
the
unemployment,
low
property
values
all
of
those
things
which,
in
some
cases,
when
you
look
in
the
list,
they
were
getting
like,
for
instance,
housing
like
with
st.
Peter's
and
the
transitions
that
were
happening
on
the
street
and
other
areas
of
downtown
they.
D
D
In
three
point,
four
of
the
document
and
three
point:
five:
there's
a
description
of
how
well
there's
a
mention
of
fifty
two
million
dollars
as
being
what
what
they
believe
was
was
the
the
outside
of
mount.
That
was
available
for
improvements
in
the
zone
and
in
Table
two
of
their
document,
and
if
you
have
the
document,
you
can
look
at
it.
It
would
be
under
three
point
four
and
five:
they
talked
about
both
the
city
of
Laredo
and
Laredo
Community
College
in
this
particular
document.
D
However,
we
move
forward
and
that's
in
three
point
five
of
the
document
there's
also
in
three
point:
six
methods
of
sources
of
financing:
you
can't
they
they
point
to
that,
and
it
says
this
to
ensure
timely
construction
of
public
improvements.
Both
pay-as-you-go
and
various
methods
of
financing
may
be
utilized,
and
this
is
something
that
we
talk
about.
We
can
talk
about
during
the
workshop.
D
Those
methods
from
the
plan
are
tax,
increment
bonds,
direct
reimbursements,
private
financing,
public
private
partnerships,
I'm
assuming
grants
and
other
public
funds.
So
you
can
cobble
together
a
financing
plan
for
all
of
these,
but
through
with
with
all
of
these
mentioned
here,
phase
one
was
slated
to
be
somewhere
between
22
and
35
million
dollars
and
eighty
percent
of
available,
which
was
80
percent
of
the
available
construction
funds
and
I,
think
it
was
anticipated
that
there
would
be
some
bonding
assistance
and
I'm.
D
D
A
G
A
A
A
Was
approximately
3/4
of
a
million
dollars?
I'll
share
that
I'll.
Look
for
that
report
to
share
with
you,
so
we're
shy
of
the
1
million
that
we
talked
about
needing
to
leverage
something
more
substantial
and
I.
Don't
know
how
much
because
of
the
way
things
are
now
how
much
longer
it
will
take
to
bring
in
that
balance
there
or
if
the
city
is
even
in
what
the
city's
plans
are
for
bonds
in
the
near
future.
A
G
A
We
know
that
we're
not
at
the
level
that
we
thought
we
were
going
to
be
at
by
this
time
only
because
funds
are
coming
in
slower
than
we
anticipated
them
coming
in.
But
that
said,
it
doesn't
mean
we
can't
start
moving
forward
with
a
project
may
be,
as
able
city
said,
in
a
prior
meeting
or
maybe
earlier
in
a
layered
format,
so
that
we
see
what
we
can
start
doing
with
what
we
have
and
adding
to
that
and
then
adding
to
that.
D
That
should
be
probably
what
we
are.
So
what
we
need
to.
We
give
it.
We
need
a
date,
and
we
can,
you
know,
get
the
information
all
together,
that
we
need
to
have
a
good
workshop.
That
will
be
productive
and
yes,
where
we
are
is
exactly
and
I
don't
know
if
you
can
go,
I
can
keep
going
and
and
tell
you
while.
D
Some
of
the
points
that
I
think
that
we
need
to
get
research
and
information
and
help
from
the
city
on
is
before
this
workshop
is
a
financial
analysis
by
the
finance
department
concerning
tax
collection
in
the
district,
something
fresh
based
on
on.
You
know
what
we've
hit
in
terms
of
our
economy
right
now,
because
of
kovat
visual
survey
of
operating
and
shuttered
businesses
that
are
on
sale,
so
street.
D
D
We
have
some
money
set
aside
for
certain
things,
but
just
to
have
you
know,
a
Memorandum
of
Understanding
would
be
helpful
and
then
consensus
on
the
inclusion
of
Marcy
Darcy
at
the
workshop,
which
I'm
assuming
is
going
to
be
done
on,
hopefully
a
better
WebEx
connection
than
what
we
have
right
now
and
and
questions
to
be
discussed
with
city
attorney
representing
the
tours
that
that
we
feel
like
we
need
to
discuss
with
them
so
that
we
whoops.
Can
you
hear
me?
Can
you
hear
me.
C
F
C
D
C
May
be
the
chair
and
members
could
get
they
some
direction
from
city
management
over
what
they're
pulled
sonic
on
our
activity
is
so
that
we
don't
get.
You
know,
I
guess
called
back
later.
When
we
moved
up,
you
know,
moved
on
to
things
is
to
maybe
get
their
feelings
when
you
visit
with
the
city
attorney
is
to
get
management's
input
early
before
the
workshops
so
that
we
don't
get
told
after
we
do
the
workshop
hey.
H
H
C
Just
making
sure
that
the
bonding
question
is
the
first
one
question
that
I
would
ask
them.
You
know
we're
gonna
proceed
with
the
idea
that
we
we
are
entertaining
projects
that
we
want
to
mobilize.
They
may
not
agree
with
that.
They
might
say
well,
look
why
don't
you
wait
another
year
and
then
we'll
get
bonded
in
secret
projects
that
they
don't
turn
us
back
once
we
start
once
we
mobilize,
even
though
we
are
an
abort
that
we
should
proceed
the
way
we
we
think
we're
gonna
proceed.
D
C
I'm
gonna
rate
Kirby,
a
section
that's
been
underlined
in
the
presentation.
The
border
direct
of
director
shall
prepare
her
costs
to
be
prepared,
an
adoptive
project
plan
in
a
reinvestment
zone,
fine
and
planned
for
this-
for
the
zone
as
described
section
three
11.0
on
one
Texas
code
and
shall
submit
plans
to
the
City
Council
for
its
approval.
I.
Take
that
to
mean
that
once
we
get
our
project
plan
together,
it's
got
to
go
before
towns.
H
D
Happened
but
that
project
plan
inside
that
project
plan
Kirby
is
three
point
five,
and
that
is
on
that
and
if
you
go
Jose
to
that
other
slide,
it
says
the
tours
will
in
will
initially
and
the
tours
will
initially
occur:
monetary
obligations
only
after
the
completion,
inspection
and
acceptance
by
the
city
of
the
eligible
public
improvements
or
in
the
case
of
there's
a
public-private
partnership
of
some
sort,
a
detail.
That's
simply.
C
H
C
You
know
if
Kirby,
if
you
think
we
can
mobilize
without
city
management,
participation
on
the
proposals
project
plan-
hey
you
know
whether
you
know
you
guys
should
help
us.
You
know
meter
how
much
we're
doing
without
consulting
city
management.
Obviously
you
know
there's
some
autonomy
here,
but
it
just
seems
to
me
that
we
ought
to
present
some
sort
of
project
proposal
plan.
Have
them
talk
through
it,
you'll
get
feedback
from
them
before
we
move
and
then
that
we
don't
go
too
far
out
and
then
they
have
a
problem
funding.
A
So
I
think
this
is
I
think
this
is
what
I
think
we're
both
moving
in
the
right
direction
in
this
respect,
I
I,
think
I'll
say
what
Carla's
saying
is
that
we
need
to
meet.
We
need
to
meet
and
put
something
together
to
actually
even
show
the
council
to
go
to
your
point
on
discussing
it
with
council
or
betting
it
somewhere.
We
need
to
ourselves
know
what
it
is
we
want
to
to
put
before
them.
I
agree.
A
One
thing,
that's
very
important:
it's
whatever
we
plan
includes
leveraging
the
funds
we
have
so
far
or
in
order
to
bond
money
for
making
the
project
bigger.
Definitely
that's
gonna
require,
especially
today
in
what's
going
on
with
the
city's
budget
and
everything
more
discussion,
but
we
don't
even
know
if
we're
going
in
that
direction,
because
this
is
part
of
the
reason
we
have
Able's
City
on
board
is
to
imagine.
D
H
H
H
Now
we
have
a
project
plan,
I,
think
every
tourist
member,
if
you
haven't,
read
this
already
and
Henry,
if
I
can
ask
if
you
can
send
the
project
plan
to
everybody,
because
I'm
gonna
guess
that
most
of
our
board
members
have
not
read
through
this,
because
if
you
read
through
it,
you'll
realize
that
we
do
have
a
project
plan.
We
have
a.
H
Maybe
this
would
be
helpful
to
sue
to
reiterate
that
what
a
bond
is
is
alone.
In
other
words,
we
could
wait
30
years
till
we
collect
what
was
proposed,
then
probably
50
million
and
spend
it,
but
we're
not
going
to
do
that.
You
know,
or
we
were
the
plan
typically
chosen,
not
to
wait
to
the
end
but
to
bond
against
the
revenue
that
you're
going
to
take
in
it,
but
you
know,
and
and
when
you
issue
a
bond,
it's
based
on
certain
certain
expectations
of
how
that
bond
will
perform
right.
H
Now
there
is
such
ambiguity
as
to
property
values
and
tax
rates.
If
there
would
be
no
way
right
now
to
bond
in
this
situation
is
Christmas
at
the
city
level.
What
we're
talking
about
furloughs,
we're
talking
about
layoffs,
we're
talking
about
very
serious
implications
to
our
budget,
especially
next
year,
so
they're,
there
I,
don't
see
a
situation
where
we
be
able
to
bond
and
I
definitely
don't
see
the
city.
H
Can
speak
to
that,
but
what
we've
discussed
with
mandamus
were
we're
right
now.
We're
making
it
through
this
year
with
significant
cuts
next
year
is
where
it's
gonna
get
very
dicey,
so
we're
looking
at
at
least
I
would
say
a
year
and
a
half
out
before
we
really
know
what
we're
going
to
be
on
this
year,
at
least
I'll
say:
do
you
want
to
you
want
to
add
anything
to
that.
D
A
Know
what,
but
no
one
is
going
to
be
able
to
tell
you
when
this
is
good.
This
is
over
when
it
turn
that's
what
we're
looking
for
yeah
date
a
year
or
about
a
time
when
things
will
start
turning.
This
is
too
early.
It's
too
early
to
tell
all
of
this,
but
what
is
it
I
think
too
early
to
do
is
to
begin
to
imagine
this
and
I'm
looking
at
the
numbers,
I'm
looking
at
the
numbers
in
front
of
me
that
I'll
share
with
all
of
you
they're
late.
A
The
last
report
that
was
submitted
to
to
the
state
in
terms
of
the
annual
report
and
those
numbers
are
hovering
around
a
quarter
of
a
million
three
quarters
of
a
million
dollars.
It's
not
going
to
grow
much
faster,
so
so,
let's
started
man.
Let's
start
working
with
reality.
It
says
if
we
had
that
kind
of
a
budget
to
work
with
and
that
kind
of
a
future
in
the
next
two
years.
You
know,
what
are
we
going
to
decide
to
do?
A
I
mean
the
truth
of
the
matter
is
if
we
say-
and
this
is
something
for
board
discussion,
but
if
the
boards
discussion
of
the
board's
thoughts
are
you
know
what?
Let's,
let's
freeze
for
the
next
two
years
and
the
funding
continue
to
come
in
until
it's
accumulated
to
X
amount.
Then
let's,
let's
lay
that
on
the
table
or
discuss
that
now,
I
I
didn't
get
the
idea
that
this
would
be
in
the
best
interest
of
the
city.
For
us
to
not
do
something.
A
We
have
these
thoughts,
and
this
is
what
we're
thinking
you
know.
This
is
without
spending
thousands
to
going
down
that
that
that
going
down
that
road,
but
we
need
to
have
something:
an
idea:
presentation
to
provide
that
that
the
city
some
thoughts
on
what
we're
thinking
this
is
going
to
move
in
the
direction
it's
going
to
move
in
and
that's
where
we're
hoping
enable
City.
A
D
We
can
come
up
with
a
couple
of
scenarios
where
I
mean
with
you
all:
well
we're
working
on
fee
like
a
phased
I.
You
know
here's
a
phased
project
that
includes
you
know
everything
that
we
would
like
to
see
happen,
including
you
know,
the
cost
of
X
in
the
beginning,
because,
as
we
know
that
once
you
start
moving
ground
or
breaking
streets
or
sidewalks
or
whatever
you,
you
might
as
well
try
and
do
as
much
as
you
can,
because
otherwise,
you
know
you're
gonna
do
it
over
and
over
and
over
again.
D
So
there's
that's
one
scenario
and
then
there's
another
scenario
which
is
a
you
know,
small
projects
and
and
there's
nothing
to
say
that
that
we
can't
matching
funding
for
those
small
projects.
I
mean
we
can
figure
out.
You
know
what
once
we
figure
out
the
plan,
we
may
be
able
to
figure
out.
You
know.
Yes,
it's
pay-as-you-go,
but
maybe
we're
gonna
get
some
matching
grants
or
funding
from
different
sources.
D
We
won't
know
until
we
get
there
so
there's
a
but
but
that's
the
thing
that
I
think
Abel
city
can
do
you
know
through
the
workshop,
like
here's,
here's.
What
you're,
looking
at
you
know
we're
starting
with
big
things.
First,
here's
what
you're
looking
at
we're,
starting
with
little
things.
First,
going
on
to
the
big
things,
I
mean
that's
two
ways
of
approaching.
G
G
Causing
conflict
related
to
the
construction
or
related
project
that
might
be
going
on
so
I
think
that's
the
only
coordination
piece,
I
think
we
should
be
doing,
but
I
think
we
should
be
getting
the
plan
ready.
The
projects
decided
on
and
then
presenting
them.
As
you
know,
we
want
to
propose
and
if
there's
any
conflict
with
those
projects,
then
at
that
point
we
come
back
and
say:
okay,
we
need
to
adjust
based
on
the
information
I,
don't
what
everybody
thinks,
but.
H
F
H
D
If
I
may,
you
think
it'd
be
better
to
go
through
the
workshop
first
before
those
kinds.
You
know,
because
we
need
to
get
to
the
through
the
workshop,
to
see
to
make
sure
that
we
can
deliver
on
the
direction
that
we're
thinking
of
going.
So
they
can
give
us
some
good
response
on
that
because
they
may
find
they
may
find
the
projects
or
the
intent
to
be
beneficial
for
the
economy
of
the
downtown
area,
to
move
forward.
A
A
Assess
what
it
is
we
can
do
again
with
what
we
have
and
what
we'd
like
to
have
given
the
reality
of
today
and
have
that
set
that
forth
as
a
project.
So
as
it
says,
when
we
do
approach
the
city
again
without
we're
not
getting
to
the
point
where
you're
going
to
turn
dirt
or
anything
like
that
way
before
that.
But
we
could
do
the
city
and
we
discuss
this,
and
this
is
what
we
met
about
act,
a
workshop.
This
is
a
reality
of
how
much
we
have
today.
A
You
know
I
would
I,
don't
know
what
everybody
else
thinks,
but
these
are
my
thoughts
on
that
subject.
I
think
that
if
we
can
find
a
venue
large
enough
to
be
at
safe
distances,
I
would
for
her
to
do
this
as
much
as
possible
in
person
without
breaking
any
of
the
rules
that
exist
out
there,
but
we're
all
safe
distance
masks
gloves
whatever
we
want
to
work.
Anybody
who
would
like
to
come
in
yeah
the
video
is
for
we
have
to
have
that
option.
B
A
I
understand,
in
fact,
and
I
appreciate
by
the
way,
I
needed
to
say
this
and
I'm
glad
you
gave
me
the
opportunity
to
say
it
for
those
board
members
that
are
not
aware
of
that.
This
is
one
of
the
first
committees,
commissions
boards,
etc.
It
has
actually
been
given
permission
to
meet
the
rest
are
still,
and
it's
not
it's
not
a
blanket
approval.
A
We
appreciate
your
that
we
asked
early.
You
presented
it
to
the
city
manager,
I'm
glad
that
worked.
Maybe
you
can
proceed.
The
next
thought
and
that's
it
we'd
like
to
have
a
workshop
with
as
much
as
possible
and
even
if
we're
the
ones
testing
it
for
a
in
person,
safe
distance
kind
of
meeting
to
see
how
that
works
out
with
the
option
of
remote
access,
because
we
don't
I.
The
last
thing
I
want
to
do
is:
have
anybody
present
who's
uncomfortable
being
there,
but
I'm
I'm,
one
of
those
persons
that
has
been
attending
meetings.
A
G
G
A
G
A
There,
a
second
all,
those
in
favor,
say
aye
aye.
All
those
opposed
same
sign
motion
carries
I'll,
be
I'll,
be
working
with
able
city
to
Creed
a
brief
questionnaire
that
will
be
used
to
help
put
together
the
workshop.
It
will
include
items
that
will
be
discussed
in
the
workshop,
may
be
potential
dates
and
then
allow
you
also
to
describe
what
Abdullah
was
saying.
Your
heart
thoughts
and
concrete
ideas
on
a
couple
of
solid
ideas
on
moving
forward.
D
B
C
D
A
In
Kirby,
what
I'll
do
is
I
will
follow
up
on
your
suggestion
there
as
well.
That
I
will
share
some
of
the
documents
that
I
shared
with
you
that
I
have
on
PDF
versions
up
with
the
board,
so
that
we
all
have
similar
documents
and
can
reread
some
of
the
stuff
I
know.
Probably
every
board
member
has
been
through
most
of
these
documents,
but
if
you're
like
me,
who
was
appointed
in
so
many
years
ago,
it's
tough
to
remember.
What's
on
the
document,
unless
you're
rereading
it.
A
Anybody
not
get
the
presentation.
Let's
start
there
very
good
good
board
member,
so
please
do
review
it,
because
I
think
the
presentation
was
very
useful
in
providing
an
overview
of
things
that
we
need
to
take
into
consideration
very
good.
So
sensing,
no
other
discussion
on
this
subject
and
and
this
being
the
only
item
on
the
agenda.
B
A
A
A
A
Is
there
a
second
second,
although
city
say
I,
all
those
opposed
same
sign
motion
carries
everyone.
Thank
you
very
much
for
your
patience
in
making
this
a
reality.
I
know
it's
been
tough
and
it's
going
to
be
difficult
until
we
get
work
out
the
glitches,
but
I
think
we
needed
to
start
speaking
sooner
than
later
and
Nadia.
Thank
you
for
all
the
work
you're
doing.
