Description
Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone Number One - TIRZ 1 Meeting 041321
A
So
let's
go
ahead
and
begin
and
call
the
order.
A
meeting
of
the
city
of
laredo
tax,
increment
reinvestment
zone
number
one
today
is
tuesday
april
13th,
and
it's
5
30.
first
item
on
the
agenda
is
to
call
the
order.
Second
item
on
the
agenda
is
the
roll
call.
A
A
Very
good.
The
next
item
on
the
agenda
are
the
minutes
from
the
meetings
of
february
and
march
19th.
Let's
go
ahead
and
begin
with
february
9th.
A
I
have
a
comment
on
february
9th,
just
a
a
slight
change
to
be
made,
but
on
after
the
motion,
madam
secretary
on
the
motion
where
we
to
proceed
with
submitting
the
eba
grant
under
that
it
begins
with
mr
sauvignon
moved
to
the
next
item
hold
on
a
second.
Can
I
ask
you
all
to
please
mute
getting
a
lot
of
background
noise.
A
Thank
you,
yeah!
That's
much
better!
There's
mr
soviet
moved
the
next
item
in
the
agenda
and
asked
able
city
percent
information
we
use.
The
word
miss
miss
frank
mentioned
that
she
had
called
with
sue.
I
think
we
should
put
her
last
name
there
and
put
sue
darcy
and
then
further
down.
In
that
paragraph
we
also
refer
to
miss
darcy
by
her
first
name
and
let's
go
ahead
and
put
sue
darcy
in
or
miss
darcy
and
then
two
paragraphs
down
again.
A
We
said
any
recommendations
from
darcy
and
that's
just
that
ms
darcy
it's
and
then
one
other
one
other
change
to
at
the
very
end
of
the
minutes.
There
was
a
motion
to
return
and
to
discuss
item
four
except
that
traditionally
item
four
is
citizen
comments,
so
I
suspect
that
probably
was
item
five
and
not
item
four.
A
Then
I
have
a
question
to
ask
regarding
these
minutes.
I
was
at
this
meeting
at
which
we
discussed
with
mr
cevallos
setting
up
a
workshop
related
to
the
the
inner
city
and
specifying
downtown,
or
was
it
at
the
last
meeting?
D
It's
on
there,
I
I
just
saw
it
it's
it's
on
page.
A
Of
the
minutes
of
this
mid
of
this
of
this
see,
I
didn't
see
it.
I
just
wanted
to
make
sure
it
was
in
there.
A
A
Yes,
I
do
it's
in
the
minutes.
Okay,
so
are
there
any
other
comments
or
changes
related
to
the
february?
Ninth
minutes
sensing.
None.
Do
I
hear
a
motion
to
approve
the
minutes
for
february
9th.
A
B
A
It
and
then
I
would
I
would
make
it
a
quick
observation
there.
On
march
9th
gosh
you're
gonna
have
to
go
down
one
two,
three,
four,
five,
six,
seven
pages,
so
I
guess
all
the
way
towards
the
end
and
it's
the
minutes
that
it's
the
paragraph.
A
A
Okay,
then
also
the
next
page,
the
paragraph
that
begins
with
mr
sovenia
that
it
goes
to
what
carol
pointed
out
and
I'm
sorry
sometimes.
I
know
I
address
you
all
by
your
first
names,
but
I
think
for
the
minute
purposes,
we
should
have
our
our
last
names,
so
we
could
change
what
carol
pointed
out
to
what
miss
alexander
pointed
out,
and
the
same
thing
applies
to
the
next
page
when
I
refer
to
board
members
carol,
patty
and
jose.
Let's
change
that
to
miss
alexander,
miss
goldberg
and
mr
cevallos.
A
And
then
further
down
that
same
paragraph,
it
says
mr
snyderman
said
that
jose
had
made
a
good
comment
that
we
should
put
mr
cevallos
there
as
well.
B
A
Okay,
sensing,
no
other
changes.
Do
I
hear
a
motion
to
adopt
the
minutes
as
with
those
changes.
G
H
A
Okay,
it's
been
moved
and
seconded
all
those
in
favor,
say
aye.
All
those
opposed
sign
motion
carries
thank
you
and
I
appreciate
the
minutes
that
are
prepared.
I
know
sometimes
it's
difficult
to
get
all
of
this
straight,
so
those
are
small
details,
but
thank
you
for
making
those
changes.
A
The
next
item
on
the
agenda
is
citizen
comments.
Item
four
citizens
are
required
to
fill
out
an
outline
witness
card
no
later
than
5
45
pm
and
can
be
found
in
the
city's
website.
Comments
are
limited
to
three
minutes
per
speaker.
No
more
than
three
persons
will
be
allowed
to
speak
on
any
side
of
an
issue.
Speakers
may
not
pass
their
minutes
to
any
other
speaker.
Comments
should
be
relevant
to
the
city
business
and
delivered
in
a
professional
manner.
No
derogatory
remarks
will
be
permitted.
A
Very
good,
okay,
if
they
do
please
let
me
know,
item
five
next
item
on
the
agenda
discussion
with
possible
action
regarding
the
downtown
tours
project
as
prepared
by
able
city
board
member
comments
regarding
the
information
presented
and
any
other
matters
incident
there
too,
and
so
what
we
have
here
in
front
of
us
is
a
presentation
of
the
powerpoint
that
was
made
for
and
presented
to
the
city
council
with
a
number
of
follow-up
items
that
we've
discussed
at
prior
meetings.
So
let's
go
ahead
and
go
through
the
pages
here.
A
Do
you
want
me
to
summarize
these
pages
as
we
go
through
them,
or
did
you
want
to
viviana?
Would
you
like
to
cover
that.
A
I
think
you
should
cover
it:
okay,
very
good,
so
we'll
go
to
the
first.
The
next
slide,
please,
those
of
you
that
haven't
had
a
chance
to
see
the
meeting
that
was
presented
to
the
city
council.
I
encourage
you
to
go
to
the
city
council
meeting
of
march
29th
and
just
you
don't
have
to
go
through
the
whole
meeting.
Just
go.
Look
for
item
66
on
the
agenda
and
you'll
be
able
to
hear
the
presentation
as
as
made
I.
I
was
very
pleased
with
the
results.
A
It
was
a
very
short
presentation
and
that
it
was
later
in
the
evening,
and
I
knew
that
we
had
a
factor
of
minutes
to
be
able
to
get
a
clear
and
good
point
across,
and
so
what
we
did
was
we
reviewed
with
the
city
council,
the
members
of
the
board,
and
we
discussed
the
the
outline
or
the
did,
the
format
of
the
district.
Thank
you
next
slide.
A
What
we
did
was
this.
This
particular
chart
gave
the
council
and
management's
office
city
manager's
office,
an
idea
of
all
the
things
we've
been
taking
into
account
when
honing
in
in
the
area
we're
focusing
on
which
was
meaning
access
to
this
area,
the
various
streets,
we're
looking
at
projects
and
future
projects,
signage
way,
finding
etc.
C
A
Oh,
no,
that
was
that
was
two
slides
down,
but
basically
oops.
F
D
Okay,
mr
chair,
yes,
on
on
the
on
the
slide
that
depicts
its
slide
number
10
on
the
powerpoint
that
shows
saragosa
street,
I
thought
we
were
going
to
take
saragosa
all
the
way
to
the
monument
the
new
monument
that's
being
proposed
at
santa
santa,
usually-
and
I
noticed
that
it's
it-
it
turns
it
turns
it
turns
to
senegal's
dean.
It
doesn't
go
all
the
way.
F
Can
I
I'm
gonna,
take
it
out
of
presentation
format?
Okay,
okay
with
me,
because
something's
up
with
this,
I
don't
know
what's
happening.
F
F
D
A
So
then,
if
you
go
to
the
next
slide,
what
we
did
show-
and
it's
not
here-
but
if
you
go
down
one
slide,
if
possible,
there
we
go.
A
There
was
a
slide
before
this
and
the
slide
before
this
showed
saragosa
from
the
outlets
to
san
agustin
plaza,
and
we
just
showed
them
kind
of
what
this
slide
shows
a
rendering
of
what
it
would
look
like
here,
we're
showing
the
monument
entrance
from
this
area
and
what
was
good,
I
think,
was
important
to
show
were
the
existing
conditions
and
how
it
would
look
after
the
existing
conditions,
which
I
thought
was
an
impactful
statement.
Next
slide
oh
hold
on
henry.
A
We
did,
we
just
described
the
monument
at
this
time.
We
can.
We
can
ask
able
city
to
look
at
the
the
connecting
of
the
blocks,
but
the
cost
we
put
in
there
with
monument
related.
So.
F
That's
that
159
and
the
159
was
figured
into
the
overall
construction
cost,
but
not
the
the
four
poles
at
san
bernardo
or
the
next
block.
F
A
It's
okay:
if
you
go
to
the
next
slide,
please
so
then
we
showed
we
showed
to
tantalum
parkway
and
again.
I
think
it
was
effective
to
show
the
sidewalks
as
they
exist
and
then
the
levelness
of
the
area.
I
emphasized
that-
and
I
said
it
over
and
over
during
the
presentation
that
this
as
we
as
we
discussed
through
several
meetings,
that
this
was
a
matter
of
sidewalks
trees
and
lighting,
sidewalk
trees
and
lighting
and
and
they
got,
I
think
they
got
the
message
there
fully.
A
Let's
go
to
the
next
one,
then
we
showed
them
what
it
would.
What
the
the
power
of
a
monument
entrance
was
like.
We
were
clear
that
this
is
not
necessarily
the
monument
they
would
be
used,
but
it
was
an
example,
but
I
think
what
helped
drive
the
point
home
again
was
the
existing
conditions
of
this
of
the
non-sidewalk
on
one
side
and
how
it
looked
once
you
had
trees
and
sidewalk
and
lighting
on
it.
Next
slide.
A
A
The
next
slide
we
discussed
the
mural
of
proposed
mural
locations,
the
value
of
murals,
and
I
that
was
a
a
positive
point
in
the
presentation
next
slide.
Please.
A
And
then
we
got
what
we
did
was.
We
hope
explain
to
the
board
that
we
were
honing
in
on
the
map
that
you
see
there
and
provided
a
general
exp.
You
know
by
the
general
expense
cost
and
proposed
that
this
was
a
2.2
million
dollar
project
with
a
300
000
contingency,
so
that
we
were
asking
to
bond
to
2.5
million
dollars
next
slide.
Please.
A
No,
no,
so
the
city
council
was
enthusiastic
about
what
they
saw.
There
were
comments
there
we
go.
The
prior
slide
showed
you
what
I
just
know
go
back.
F
A
So
this
is
what
we
were
talking
about:
the
2.2
million
300
000
and
bond
amount
for
2.5
million
the
council.
I
asked
the
council
to
direct
the
city
manager's
office
to
work
with
the
tours
to
help
us
with
the
bond
and
they
did
so
a
couple
of
council
people
spoke
two
or
three
council
people
spoke.
They
were
enthusiastic.
The
city
manager
also
expressed
the
support
of
the
project,
so
all
of
that
was
helpful
in
this
process.
A
I
don't
know
if
there
are
any
comments
from
any
of
the
board
members
that
saw
the
presentation
I'd
like
to
open
it
for
comments.
D
I
henry
I
saw
the
presentation,
I
thought
everybody
was
extremely
positive
and
it
seemed
like
you
had
done
a
lot
of
work
to
to
get
everybody
there.
Congratulations
for
for
leading,
leading
the
way
and
charging
in
a
way
that
that
was
definitely
not
not
passive.
I
think
you've
been-
and
I
use
this
in
a
very
favorable
way,
aggressive
in
seeking
to
leverage
the
funding
and
it
worked.
Your
strategy
worked
and-
and
I'm
happy
that
we're
in
this
place.
A
Well,
it
it
it
took
a
group
and
it
it.
It
certainly
helps
when
all
board
members
are
sinking
from
the
the
same
song
book
and
giving
the
same
message,
we
don't
all
have
the
opportunity
to
meet
the
same
elected
officials
and
the
same
city
officials
at
the
same
time.
A
So
what
we
do
on
our
own
time-
and
we
have
the
you
know,
it's
only
a
song
that
we've
been
preparing
for
about
two
years
now,
so
if
we
don't
know
the
tune
by
now,
so
thank
you
board
members
who
were
able
to
help
put
this.
You
know
help
drive
the
point
home
that
this
is
an
important
project.
Thank
you
for
your
comments,
jose.
A
F
B
A
Viviana
I'll-
let
you
take
it
from
here,
because
this
is
the
project
pros
project
schedule
that
we
discussed
that
you
were
going
to
be
working
on.
I
believe
we
actually
had
a
couple
of
committee
members
that
were
supposed
to
be
available
to
you
in
this
preparing
this.
They
may
have
comments
as
well,
but
let
me
turn
it
over
to
you.
F
F
So
we
began
to
work
on
that
presentation
which
took
place
on
the
29th
from
the
9th
of
march,
when
that
was
when
we
had
the
the
meeting
with,
of
course,
with
the
city,
and
from
that
point
forward,
we,
you
know
we
had
to
prepare
the
the
rf.
What
is
it
nothing,
though?
Not
the
notice
but
public
notice,
the
public
notice
information
which
you
have
in
your
pocket
as
well,
that
was
sent
to
the
city
specifically
miyazu,
ria
yeah.
It
wasn't.
F
It
was
sent
to
the
chair,
and
then
it
went
to
for
discussion
with
with
mr
mia
riazumi
and.
A
I'd
like
to
introduce
at
this
point-
I
I'm
sorry,
I
haven't
sent
it
if
I,
if
I
was
going
to
be
sending
it
forward,
I
need
to
still
do
that
and
I
apologize
I
haven't.
So
that's
on
my
task
of
things
to
do
there.
H
I
I
think
the
next
step
would
be.
As
you
know
we
were.
We
did
talk
to
mr
mia
about
setting
up
a
meeting
just
for
that,
and
so,
whenever
you're
ready
to
do
it,
we
can
join
you
on
that
and
where
else
you'd
like
to
be
part
of
that
meeting,
they
they
did
express
that
they
would
like
to
assist
us
not
only
as
you
mentioned
the
bonding,
but
also
with
the
actual
procurement,
which
I
think
will
be
helpful
to
move
things
along
since
they're
pretty
good
at
it.
H
A
I'll
reach
out
I'll
reach
out
this
week
and
get
back
to
you.
F
So
what
we're
going
to
do
is
take
this
schedule
and
just
you
know,
begin
actuating
it
as
we
go
along
so
that
we
know
so
that
we're
pushing.
Obviously
these
dates
have
been
pushed
forward
a
little
bit.
F
A
There
any
questions
or
comments
from
the
board,
but
regarding
the
prior,
let's
look
at
the
prior
slide
just
in
case
there
were
any
comments.
G
I
have
a
question
yes,
yes,
I
have
a
question
about
the
stakeholder
engagement
meeting.
Is
that
going
to
be
kind
of
just
a
presentation
of
this
is
what
is
happening
or
that's
the
question.
A
A
We
have
been,
you
know,
to
some
degree,
not
some
degree,
to
a
large
degree
open
about
our
public
meetings,
asking
people
to
visit
other
partners
in
the
downtown
area.
Well,
there
may
be
room
for
some
tweaky
or
some
comments.
I
don't
think
this
is
this
room
for
a
rewrite
of
the
project,
so
the
idea
is
an
unveiling
of
the
project
with
comments
from
the
public
about
the
project.
F
Well,
I'm
just
switching
to
the
next
slide,
because
these
are
all
committee
meetings
that
we
need
to
have,
except
for
the
loretta
health
committee.
The
other
two
have
to
do
with
pushing
the
project.
Okay,.
A
Let's
take:
let's
look
at
the
first
one
to
begin
with.
Okay,
so
because
I
want
to
finish
the
comments
by
carol
so
carol,
I
I
so
we
discussed
the
prior
meetings
and
tasks
that
we
were
going
to
be
working,
and
I
know
that
kirby
sent
me
an
email
asking
to
be
a
member
of
that
committee,
also
so
that
we
can
prepare
for
that
meeting
with
the
stakeholders.
A
I'd,
certainly
like
your
input,
because
you
brought
this
up
at
this
meeting
the
prior
meeting-
and
I
think,
you're
being
on
this
committee,
is
a
good
thing,
because
we
need
to
discuss
the
project
goals,
scope
of
work.
You
know
of
what
we
is
being
envisioned.
Am
I
addressing
your
question.
G
Well,
the
question
I
guess
was
I
I
know
the
project
is,
has
already
been,
I
guess
decided,
but
then
I
heard
miss
frank
say
that
that
there's
still
time
to
adjust
certain
things.
She
she
said
that
a
little
while
ago,
there's
still
time
to
adjust,
but
I'm
wondering
how
much
it
I
don't
know
if
there's
like
a
maybe
a
percentage
goal
or
something
how
how
many,
how
much
adjustment
can
happen?
G
A
Yeah,
I
think
we
need
more.
You
need
to
be
more
specific
because,
for
example,
if
what
you
mean
by
adjust
the
streets
that
we're
covering,
I
don't
think
so.
I
think
we
we
sat
down
as
a
committee
subcommittees.
A
We
reviewed
this
over
and
over
it
included
all
the
sit
all
the
streets
we've
been
discussing
all
this
time
as
a
first
phase.
What
we
were
going
to
tackle
in
terms
of
the
items
getting
trees,
sidewalks
lights,
it's
there,
so
I
don't
know
which
I
I
need.
I
need
to
I'd
like
you
to
be
a
little
more
specific,
so
that
I
can
answer
your
question.
Well,.
G
Maybe
this
in
this
stakeholder
engagement
meeting,
maybe
we
could
start
getting
the
notes
or
ideas
depending
on
how
much
interest
and
participation
we
get.
Of
course,
maybe
we
could
start
the
notes
for
whatever
phase
two
might
be
coming
coming
up,
because
there
are
few
opportunities
that
we
find
where
we
we
can
engage
stakeholders
in
this
area
for
multiple
reasons
right
right.
G
So
when,
if
we
were
able
to
have
you
know
kind
of
a
healthy
participation
here
and
and
of
course,
there's
no
way
to
make
everyone
happy,
but
maybe
we
could
start
the
notebook
for
phase
two.
A
I
think
your
points
were
all
taken
and
I
think
that,
based
on
comments
that
come
in
from
the
stakeholder
engagement,
it
will
it
should
not
only.
It
should
inform
the
development
of
phase
two
and
phase
three,
because
first
of
all,
there
will
be
a
phase
two
in
phase
three
and
what
again
whatever
can
be
tweaked
in
this
will
be,
to
the
extent
that
we
can
change
streets
or
the
general
projects.
I
don't
think
so,
but
we
just
don't.
A
We
don't
know
what
the
the
public's
gonna
comment
on
so
based
on
the
public's
comments,
we'll
we
can
certainly
incorporate
it
to
the
in
future
phases,
and
even
perhaps
this
one.
A
We'll
have
to
just
hear
what
the
comments
are.
Does
that
make
sense?
Yes,
yeah,
I
I
I
like
what
you're
saying-
and
I
agree
with
this
and
I
and
I
think
take
note
able
city,
but
this
is
a
good
opportunity
when
we
start
hearing
it
from
the
community,
if
there's
something
of
what
they're
going
to
be
thinking
about
a
future
phase
and
what
other
things
would
look
like.
That's
a
good
thing,
any
other
comments
to
the
stakeholder
engagement
portion.
A
Okay,
so
why
don't
I
let's
turn
it
over
to
you,
I
would
say:
go
ahead.
D
So
actually,
my
question
is,
for
the
other
jose,
so
we've
defined
our
our
areas
of
of
our
project
areas
by
way
of
the
the
highlighted
zones,
how
much
wiggle
room
or
how
much
negotiation.
G
D
Changes
could
we
make
within
that
zone
in
terms
of
projects
an
example
would
be
we
decide
along
the
way
that
we
prefer
to
finish
off
a
sidewalk
and
not
do
a
monument
or
not
do
all
the
trees
and
all
the
lighting?
How
much?
How
much
does
this
bond
that
does
the
bond
requirement?
C
I
guess
the
way
we're
gonna
sell.
The
box
is
gonna,
be
a
general
description
of
improvements
to
the
downtown
area,
so
we
would
have
some
room
to
maybe
defer
some
projects
and
and
and
and
do
others.
So
I
don't
think
there
will
be
a
problem
there
in
different
a
project
and
finishing
another
one
or
even
substituting
as
long
as
it's
in
the
downtown
area.
D
Okay-
and
I
I
don't
henry
and
I
don't
mean
to
go,
you
know
rehash
all
our
deliberations
on
projects,
that's
not
where
I'm
going,
but
if,
if
for
some
reason
through
through
ria's
efforts
or
utilities
or
public
works,
there's
a
savings
or
we
can,
you
know,
overlap
some
of
the
work
and
they
cover
something.
That's
already
budgeted
and
it
frees
us
up.
We
may
want
to
do
something
else,
and
and
that's
something
for
the
you
know,
I'm
glad
that
people
said
is
that
this
is
going
out.
D
I
think
this
board
would
probably
still
stick
to
the
zones
that
have
been
you
know
identified
as
the
first
phase,
but
but
in
within
that
zone
we
could
have
some
adjustments
up
that
make
sense
financially
and
practically
on
the
street.
So
that
I'm
glad
that's
the
case,
I
I
do
have
I
mean
I
have
questions
over
the
projects
specifically,
but
I
think
I
can
get
with
with
the
team
as
they
conceptualize
those
further
and
get
the
schematics
done
and
all
and
all
that
I'm
not
worried
about.
G
G
Oh
sorry,
yeah,
all
of
a
sudden,
I
couldn't
hear
anybody,
so
he
brought
up
in
the
interest
of
saving
money
and
piggybacking
and
and
whatnot,
and
so
I
to
I
just
wanted
to
throw
out
there
again
the
idea
that
we
might
benefit
in
long
term.
You
know
in
like
in
the
30
years
that
the
that
the
tours
is
is
to
be
in
existence.
G
I
think
it's
30
more
years
right
if
we
could
use
our
group
and
and
the
the
professional
nature
of
of
the
group
that
we
have
working
for
the
board
to
create
some
design
guidelines
or
standards
that
the
city
adopts,
so
that,
once
these
improvements
are
in
place
when
they
ever
need
to
be
improved
or
maintained,
or
there's
that
you
know
the
road
department
tears
up
our
sidewalk
or
something
happens
to
the
lights,
that
we
put
up,
that
that
the
ongoing
maintenance
and
falls
under
some
design
guidelines
that
are
in
place
adopted
by
the
city,
so
that
all
of
the
different
departments
that
use
that
work
and
and
create
and
maintain
downtown.
G
That
there'll
be
some
uniformity
and,
it
seems
like
now
might
be
the
time
to
get
those
created,
because
since
they're
already
going
to
be
doing
the
work
to
create
the
projects,
maybe
now's
the
time
to
just
piggyback
on
that
and
create
the
design
guidelines
or
standards.
A
I
like
what
I
I
like
what
you're
saying
carol.
Are
there
any
other
before
I
address
that?
Are
there
any
other
comments
from
any
board
members?
Regarding
the
subject,
I.
D
I
support
I
support
that
with
carol,
suggesting
I
think,
that's
smart,
I
I
don't
think
it
would
require
a
lot
of
investment,
because
our
our
architects
are
already
going
to
have
to
decide
on
materials
and
other
things,
so
I
think
just
packaging
that
so
that
we
we
leave
it
memorialize
that
for
the
future,
I
think
that's
smart,
very
good.
G
That
that
way,
you
know
I
I,
as
a
at
loreto
main
street.
You
know
we
do
other
other
things,
but
I
know
that
there
were
some
monies
that
so
many
different
departments
and
non-profits
work
downtown
and
they
they
all
have
different
ideas
and
they
all
have
the
same
idea
right
to
promote
the
vitality
of
the
area
and
the
preservation,
the
walkability
and
making
it
a
place
to
enjoy
we're
all
working
towards
the
same
goal,
eventually
and
economic
vitality.
G
A
B
This
something
I'm
very
much
in
favor
of
it.
Also
it's
something
that
we've
spoken
about
years
ago
and
how
it's
kind
of
we're
trying
to
not
do
a
hodgepodge
all
over
downtown
different
things.
And
if
the
city
adopts
the
same
standards,
then
then
we
won't
have
that.
That
patch
looks
that
we
currently
have.
A
A
Very
good:
well
then,
why
don't
why
don't
we
put
that
in
the
form
of
a
motion
carol?
Just
if
you
just
you
know
the
idea
here,
I'd
like
to
introduce
ask
someone
to
move
that
the
we
instruct
able
city
to
add
some
standards
in
as
they
produce
the
design
project
for
the
areas
we're
working
with.
Would
someone
turn
that
into
a
motion?
Please.
G
Well,
I
can,
I
can
move
that
we
enable
able
city
to
or
instruct
them
to
also
provide
some
standards
to
be
adopted
approved
by
the
cities
to
to
help
maintain
the
the
area
going.
A
Forward
all
those
in
favor
signify
by
saying
aye
aye,
all
those
opposed
same
sign.
None
opposed
motion
carries
very
good.
Thank
you,
okay,
so
then
we
get
to
the
a
discussion
we've
had
a
couple
of
times,
and
that
is
discussion
with
laredo
college
regarding
their
eventual
participation
to
join
the
tours.
A
As
an
aside-
and
I
think,
we've
mentioned
it
in
a
prior
meeting
carol,
alexander
jose
vallos
and
myself,
then
able
city
met
with
dr
solis
and
certain
staff
members
to
discuss
the
tours,
and
they
are
certainly
enthusiastic
about
it.
Able
city
has
been
following
up
on
this
project
and
on
april
29th
at
5
pm
they're
asking
for
a
presentation
similar
to
what
we've
presented.
You
know
just
to
get
up
to
speed
on
what
the
church
has
been
working
on.
A
F
Well,
first
of
all,
I
do
think
that
we
should
have
a
prep
meeting
before
this
meeting.
Just
because
it's
the
committee
members
will
be
in
person
meeting
with
the
board.
I
think
one
person,
one
member
of
the
board,
isn't
going
to
be
there.
F
The
rest
will
the
I've
had
a
brief
discussion
with
sue
darcy,
in
fact
that
we
do
not
the
the
llc
will
not
have
to
post
a
special
meeting
or
or
post
a
notice
in
in
the
newspaper
like
the
city
did
because
they
are
already
within
the
boundaries
of
the
tours,
and
so
that
that
that
portion
of
of
the
statute
has
really
it
doesn't
isn't,
doesn't
concern
them.
F
Basically,
they
would
be
voting
on
a
motion,
and
I
I'm
going
to
be
preparing
some
language
to
send
to
them
well
to
to
send
to
to
the
three
of
you
to
review
before
we
send
it
to
them,
saying
that
that
they
would
move
to
contribute
to
the
tours
for
the
rest
of
the
time
that
it's
still
in
existence
and
to
ask
their
attorney
to
create
a
memorandum
of
agreement
with
the
tours
and
that's
all
you
need.
A
F
A
I'd
like
to
ask
you
to
go
ahead
and
send
an
email
to
the
subcommittee
members
proposing
a
couple
of
dates,
and
then
the
subcommittee
members
can
select
from
there
and
we'll
discuss
meeting
ahead
of
time
so
that
there
is
a
coherent
presentation
to
elsie
about
this
and
they're
joining
the
tourists.
E
I
got
a
quick
little
comment
on
that.
I
know
we're
going
to
be
talking
about
the
tours
and
all
that
part
of
the
big
benefit.
Remember
that
you
know
the
the
majority
of
our
tours
is
also
any
z,
so
I
I
I
mean
I
don't
know
if
that
can
be
brought
up
also
about
their
joining
the
abatement
of
taxes
for
for
any
z
projects,
maybe
just
exclusively
to
just
within
the
tours,
not
necessarily
all
the
nec
zones
or
something
to
that
extent,
you
know
what
I
mean.
F
F
A
Sorry,
I
I
need
to
understand
a
little
bit
more.
What
could
you
say
that
again
after
I'm
sorry.
E
The
energy
program
is,
as
an
example,
is
it's
just
right
now
the
city
is
the
only
one
that
participates
by
abating
the
taxes
and
deferring
the
building
fees
right.
The
county
is
is
not
participating
at
this
point.
They
were,
but
then
they
they
they.
They
have
a
moratorium.
E
F
So
if
I
could
one
clarification,
there
is
in
the
discussions
that
we
had
with
sue
and
with
the
reading
of
the
statute
tax
abatements
like
the
nec,
should
be
going
to
the
tours
and
the
tours
would
be
negotiating
with
those
particular
applicants
and
instead
of
being
abatements,
they
would
be
rebates.
F
A
Let
me
ask
a
question
of
of
arturo
and
I
I
want
to
understand
astuto.
So
when
we're
talking
about
speaking
with
lc
and
asking
to
come
in
you're,
are
you
asking
them
for
also
the
discussion
to
be
that
they
participate
with
nec
correct
yeah?
Okay,
very
good!
I
understand
what
you're
saying.
A
Right
and
that's
the
city,
and
that's
the
only
part
we
can,
we
can
effect,
ask
them
to
do
something
about
and
to
go
into,
viviana's
point,
and
I
think
viviana
you
you.
You
very
clearly
presented
it
at
a
prior
meeting
that
there
are
already
state
regulations
that
govern
how
you
work
with
this
when
there's
overlapping
zones
and
how
one
jurisdiction,
because
there
are
there's
bond
money
involved
in
this
and
the
repayment
of
bond
money.
A
This
is
why
abatements
or
anything
that
affects
the
repayment
of
the
bond
goes
through
the
ters
committee
for
just
reviewing
the
project.
It's
not
that
the
project
would
not
work
as
a
any
z
or
something
to
that
effect.
It
could
be
tweaked.
But
the
point
is
that
the
body
that
is
one
of
the
bodies-
that's
giving
up
the
money
has
to
be
careful,
because
it's
it's
already
being
pledged
towards
a
bond
repayment.
Your
point
is
taken.
Thank
you
able
city.
F
One
one
clarification
to
what
I
said
is
that
he
is
right
that
in
in
it
would
be
really
great
if
they
could
well
participate
in
the
in
the
area
outside
of
the
tours.
But
I
don't
know
if
there
is
something
that
we
can
discuss
with
them
right:
okay,.
A
We'll
be
meeting
that
we'll
be
meeting
on
that
subject
ahead
of
time.
So,
let's,
let's,
let's
bring
up
that
issue
in
and
finally
the
tours
bond
committee
meeting
with
the
city
of
florida.
I'm
assuming
that
this
is
the
committee
that
met
with
the
city
manager's
office,
the
first
time
and
this
committee
was
actually
myself
jose
vallos
and
patty
goldberg,
not
kirby
snyderman.
F
A
A
F
Just
a
closing
slide,
but
this
is
the
this
is.
This
is
the
next
meeting
that
you
all
are
probably
going
to
have
with
the
city
of
laredo
to
discuss
the
intricacies
of
this
memorandum
of
agreement
and
the
bond,
and
all
of
that.
A
Right
right.
H
F
Oh-
and
the
last
thing
I
suggest
is
that,
because
these
are
meetings-
and
I
know
that
they're
different
people-
but
maybe
not
not
this
coming
week-
for
the
or
not
not
for
the
29th
meeting,
but
maybe
after
that,
we
can
set
up
a
day
where
we
meet
for,
like
a
little
mini
little
mini
retreat
for
a
couple
hours
to
to
hash
out
these
other
ones.
A
If
you
coordinate
them
I'll
work
with
it
that
way,
okay,
now,
then
the
the
thing
that
the
the
item
that
able
city
brought
up
that
they
had
submitted
and
again
I'm
sorry,
I
haven't
forwarded
to
the
city
city
offices.
I
will
do
that.
I,
I
went
a
copy
city
at
the
city
employees
from
on
the
tourist
board,
because
I
think
you
have
some
specialty
on
these
public
notices
as
well.
A
A
Okay,
sensing,
none
we'll
move
to
item
six
discussion
with
possible
action
regarding
the
monthly
invoice
submitted
by
able
city.
I
believe
this
was
part
of
your
packet
sent
to
us.
Does
anybody
have
any
question
of
able
city
regarding
the
invoice
they
submitted
for
the
month
motion.
A
It's
been
seconded
by
carol,
alexander,
all
those
in
favor,
say
aye.
All
of
our
opposed
same
sign
motion
carries.
The
invoice
has
been
approved.
Finally,
one
an
additional
item:
when
is
the
next
meeting?
I
just
want
to
go
ahead
and
make
sure
we
get
that
out
there.
It's
gonna
be
eight.
A
Very
good
so
mark
your
calendars
for
may
11
at
2
30
in
the
afternoon.
I
know
some
of
us
will
probably
be
meeting
before
then
as
subcommittee
members
and
again
I
appreciate
everybody's
comments
and
everybody's
work
on
this
project.
Does
anybody
have
anything
to
say
before
we
close
announcements
or
anything
sensi
nun?
