[00:00:01]
WELCOME TO THE SECOND MEETING OF SUBCOMMITTEE.
ON THE B COUNCIL MEETING IS, UM, MAY 25TH AND WE'RE CONCLUDE THE MEETING ORDER.
YOU WANT TO HANDLE STAFF INTRODUCTIONS OR, UM, HI, I'M JARED WHITE AND DESIGN EFFICIENT WITH DEPARTMENT OPERATION.
NOTE, WE ARE THE ASSISTANT DIRECTOR OF PLANNING, DESIGN AND FACILITIES.
WE HAVE QUITE A BIT OF STAFF BEHIND ME.
I'M JUST ASK IF STAFF WOULD INTRODUCE THEMSELVES PLEASE.
KIM DOUGLAS, EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT PLANNING, DESIGN AND FACILITIES.
FRED WILLIAMS, UH, PROGRAM MANAGER.
I'M THE DALLAS HOUSE COALITION AS A VISITOR.
UH, KEVIN REDBURN, SUPERINTENDENT OF THE CARE DIVISION FOR SUPER
I'M AN ASSISTANT DIRECTOR OF OUR PARTNERSHIPS.
CRYSTAL ROSS, DEPUTY DIRECTOR.
SO ARE WE SUPPOSED TO BE TAKING MINUTES? OKAY.
NOBODY BE ABLE TO READ 'EM, INCLUDING ME.
UM, READY FOR THE STAFF PRESENTATION.
TONIGHT WE HAVE A PRESENTATION FOR YOU TALKING ABOUT THE NEEDS INVENTORY AND OUR SCORING CRITERIA.
ARE WE SAYING TWO PEOPLE THAT HAVE, OKAY.
CAN WE GO? YOU WANT ME TO START? VICKI, YOU WANNA FINISH YOURSELF? YES.
VICKI MARTIN WITH THE FERGUSON RUN INITIATIVE AND I'M REPRESENTING, UH, COUNCIL MEMBER MARINO, DISTRICT TWO, BOTH SLAUGHTER, UH, DISTRICT EIGHT, PAUL WOOD MEMBER.
UM, VICE PRESIDENT OF THE PARK BOARD AND REPRESENTING DISTRICT SEVEN JR.
WETA, UH, DISTRICT ONE, GARRETT BOONE.
UM, APPOINTED BY THE MAYOR
I REPRESENT DISTRICT FOUR
AND WE ALSO HAVE RUDY KAMI, UH, REPRESENTING DISTRICT 14.
WHO'S ON VIRTUALLY? HEY MR. RUDY.
SO THE PURPOSE OF OUR, OF OUR UM, PRESENTATION TONIGHT IS TO INTRODUCE YOU TO THE NEEDS INVENTORY, UH, REVIEW THE NEEDS INVENTORY SCORING PROCESS, PROVIDE AN UPDATE ON THE BOND PROGRAM TIMELINE, DISCUSS IN DETAIL HOW A PROJECT IS PRIORITIZED USING DATA ANALYSIS.
WE'LL REVIEW THE INDIVIDUAL DISTRICT PARK ACCESS AND THEN WE'LL TALK ABOUT OUR NEXT STEPS OF WHAT WE'RE GOING TO BE DOING.
SO THE NEEDS INVENTORY IS A COMPREHENSIVE LIST OF PROPOSED PARK AND TRAIL IMPROVEMENTS FOR ALL THE COUNCIL DISTRICTS.
AND IT CONSISTS OF NEARLY 3000 ENTRIES.
IT HAS 18 PROJECT CATEGORIES AND WE HAVE OVER 2 BILLION IN IDENTIFIED NEEDS PROJECTS IN THE NEEDS.
INVENTORY CAN BE PROPOSED BY CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS, PARK BOARD MEMBERS, STAKEHOLDERS OR PARTNERSHIP GROUPS, CITIZENS OR STAFF.
SO PRETTY MUCH ABOUT ANYBODY CAN, CAN PROPOSE A PROJECT WITHIN THE NEEDS INVENTORY.
AND BASICALLY WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THAT, WHEN THAT PROJECT COMES IN IS IT'S EVALUATED BY STAFF FOR MERIT TO SEE IF IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE REALLY THINK NEEDS TO BE DONE.
AND IF IT IS, WE DO A COST ESTIMATE AND WE PLACE IT INTO THE NEEDS INVENTORY.
SO WE TALKED LAST TIME ABOUT CITYWIDE AND DISTRICT PROJECTS.
SO EACH COUNCILED PERSON IS PROVIDED A SPECIFIC AMOUNT OF DISCRETIONARY BOND FUNDING AND SOME COUNCIL MEMBERS SPEND THEIR FUNDING IN PARKS.
OTHER COUNCIL MEMBERS DID DECIDE DECIDE TO SPEND THEIR FUNDING IN OTHER AREAS.
SO WE DISCUSSED LAST TIME THE CITYWIDE PROJECTS ARE THOSE THAT IMPACT MORE THAN ONE DISTRICT.
AND SOME EXAMPLES OF THOSE ARE RECREATION CENTERS, TRAIL IMPROVEMENTS OR OUR PARTNER MATCHES AND OUR
[00:05:01]
DISTRICT PROJECTS ARE THOSE THAT ONLY IMPACT ONE SPECIFIC DISTRICT SUCH AS PARK AND SITE DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS.WELL, YOU HAVE, YOU HAVE THE PRESENTATION IN FRONT OF YOU.
SO I'M GONNA GO AHEAD AND GO TO SLIDE NUMBER FIVE.
WE HAVE TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES SOMETIMES WE JUST IMPROVISE.
SO THE PROJECT SELECTION PROCESS, WE TYPICALLY DEVELOP CITYWIDE AND PARK SPECIFIC MASTER PLANS THAT WILL UTILIZE TO HELP DETERMINE WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE AT EACH PARK.
AS WE MENTIONED, WE MAINTAIN A SYSTEM-WIDE NEEDS INVENTORY.
WE PERFORM A SERVICE GAP ANALYSIS.
WE PERFORM TECHNICAL SCORING, WHICH WE'RE GONNA TALK ABOUT UM, EXTENSIVELY HERE IN A LITTLE BIT, WHICH TAKES INTO ACCOUNT THE FACILITY AND EQUIPMENT AGE AND IT TAKES INTO ACCOUNT SERVICE GAPS WITHIN THE PARK SYSTEM ITSELF.
WE CONDUCT COMMUNITY MEETINGS TO HELP DETERMINE PRIORITIES AND THEN WE COORDINATE THAT WITH PARK BOARD AND CITY COUNCIL FOR RANKS.
SO TALKING ABOUT OUR 2024 SCORING CRITERIA GUIDELINES, WE WORKED WITH THE OFFICE OF BOND AND CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT AND EACH DEPARTMENT'S SCORING CRITERIA CUZ WE HAVE MANY DEPARTMENTS THAT ARE WORKING ON THEIR BOND PROGRAM AT THE SAME TIME WE ARE.
BUT EACH DEPARTMENT'S SCORING CRITERIA MUST EQUAL A HUNDRED POINTS.
EQUITY GUIDELINES WERE DETERMINED BY EACH DEPARTMENT AND OVERLAPPING DEPARTMENT PROJECTS ARE ACCOUNTED FOR USING A CALCULATED PERCENTAGE FACTOR AND AN INTERACTIVE PROJECT MAP.
AND WHAT WE MEAN BY THAT IS, FOR EXAMPLE, IF WE HAVE A PARKS PROJECT AND ADJACENT TO THAT THERE MAY BE A STORM DRAINAGE PROJECT OR A PUBLIC WORKS ROADWAY PROJECT.
THOSE PROJECTS CAN BE DONE IN CONJUNCTION WITH WITH EACH OTHER.
SO THOSE PROJECTS MAY BE AWARDED SOME BONUS POINTS IF WE CAN SEE THAT THEY'RE GOING TO BE DONE IN CONJUNCTION WITH EACH OTHER.
SO THAT'S WHY WE LOOK AT THE OVERLAPPING DEPARTMENT PROJECTS TO SEE WHAT EFFICIENCIES WE MAY BE ABLE TO GAIN BY DOING THEM TOGETHER.
SO LOOKING AT OUR 2024 SCORING CRITERIA, WE HAVE THREE DIFFERENT CRITERIA THAT WE LOOK AT.
WE HAVE OUR DEPARTMENT TECHNICAL SCORING CRITERIA, WHICH INCLUDES LEVERAGE AND FUNDING, MATCH REVENUE GENERATION, ECONOMIC STIMULANT SAFETY CODE AND HUMAN HEALTH IMPACT ON OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE COSTS AND ENERGY USE EXISTING MASTER PLANTS IF IT'S A CONTINUATION OF A PRIOR PHASE OF A PROJECT, IF THE PROJECT IS AT THE END OF ITS SERVICE LIFE OR IF IT MEETS A LEVEL OF A SERVICE GAP.
AND THEN WE HAVE CITY COUNCIL AND PARK BOARD PRIORITIES, WHICH ALSO INCLUDES COMMUNITY INPUT.
AND THEN OUR EQUITY CRITERIA INCLUDES SOCIAL VULNERABILITY, PARK ACCESS AND PARK INVESTMENT HISTORY.
AND WE'RE GONNA TALK ABOUT THESE IN A LITTLE BIT OF DETAIL.
SO LOOKING AT THE 2024 TACTICAL SCORING CRITERIA, WE MENTIONED THAT OUR SCORING CRITERIA HAS TO EQUAL A HUNDRED POINTS.
SO OUR TACTICAL SCORING CRITERIA IS EQUIVALENT TO 50 OUT OF THOSE 100 POINTS.
AND THIS TABLE SHOWS YOU HOW THAT'S ALL DIVIDED.
BUT THE LEVERAGE AND FUNDING MATCH, BASICALLY THE DEFINITION OF THAT IS THAT THE PROJECT WILL LEVERAGE FUNDS FROM OTHER SOURCES SUCH AS GRANTS MATCHES OR DONATIONS FROM OTHER AGENCIES OR PRIVATE ENTITIES AND ENACT HAVE UP TO FIVE POINTS OUT OF THE 50 ON REVENUE GENERATION.
IF THE PROJECT WILL GENERATE REVENUE FOR THE CITY, IT CAN BE AWARDED UP TO THREE POINTS.
IF THE PROJECT AFFECTS ADJACENT PROPERTY VALUES OR WILL STIMULATE OTHER DEVELOPMENT, IT CAN BE AWARDED UP TO THREE POINTS FOR ECONOMIC STIMULANT.
IF THE PROJECT WILL ADDRESS SAFETY CONCERNS OR RESOLVE CODE AND REGULATORY VIOLATIONS OR HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS, A SAFETY CODE OR HUMAN HEALTH ISSUE, THE PROJECT CAN BE AWARDED UP TO 10 POINTS.
IF THE PROJECT WILL HAVE AN IMPACT ON OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE COSTS AND ENERGY USE, IT CAN BE AWARDED UP TO EIGHT POINTS.
IF THE PROJECT HAS AN APPROVED MASTER PLAN WITHIN THE LAST 10 YEARS, IT CAN BE AWARDED UP TO FOUR POINTS.
IF THE PROJECT IS A SUBSEQUENT PHASE OF ANOTHER PROJECT OR INITIATIVE, IT'S ALREADY COMPLETE.
FOR EXAMPLE, A TRAIL CONNECTION, IT CAN BE AWARDED UP TO FOUR POINTS.
IF THE PROJECT IS GOING TO REPLACE A FACILITY THAT HAS A LONG HISTORY OF SERVICE TICKETS OR REQUESTS OR PER MANUFACTURER'S RECOMMENDATIONS, IT'S AT THE END OF ITS SERVICE LIFE, IT CAN
[00:10:01]
BE AWARDED UP TO SEVEN POINTS.AND THEN IF THE PROJECT IS GOING TO IMPROVE OUR ADOPTED LEVEL OF SERVICE STANDARDS FOR OUR 2016 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UPDATE, IT CAN BE AWARDED UP TO SIX POINTS.
SO WHEN YOU ADD ALL OF THIS UP, OUR TECHNICAL CRITERIA IS UP TO 50 POINTS OUT OF THE 100 THAT WE HAVE AVAILABLE.
SO LOOKING AT THE NEXT SET OF CRITERIA, WHICH IS CITY COUNCIL AND PARK BOARD CRITERIA, WE HAVE 25 POINTS ALLOTTED TO THIS SPECIFIC CRITERIA AND UP TO 15 POINTS CAN BE AWARDED IF THE PROJECT IS DETERMINED BY THE PARK BOARD AND OR COUNCIL MEMBER TO BE A PRIORITY IN THEIR DISTRICT.
AND THEN WE HAVE 10 POINTS FOR COMMUNITY INPUT.
AND THAT BASICALLY IS IF THE PROJECT IS DETERMINED BY THE COMMUNITY AND OR A FRIENDS GROUP TO BE A NEIGHBORHOOD PRIORITY IN THE DISTRICT.
OR IF THE PROJECT HAS SUPPORT FROM A LOCAL FRIENDS GROUP, A PARTNERSHIP ORGANIZATION OR THE COMMUNITY HAS EXPRESSED SUPPORT DURING COMMUNITY INPUT BOND MEETINGS SUCH AS THESE OR THROUGH A REQUEST OF THE PARK BOARD MEMBER OR PARKS DEPARTMENT, IT CAN BE AWARDED UP TO 10 POINTS.
SO AGAIN, THE CITY COUNCIL PARK BOARD CRITERIA HAS A TOTAL OF 25 POINTS OUT OF THE 100.
AND THEN FINALLY LOOKING AT THE EQUITY CRITERIA, THIS IS THE FINAL 25 POINTS OUT OF 100.
FIRST WE HAVE 10 POINTS FOR SOCIAL VULNERABILITY AND THIS UTILIZES THE SOCIAL VULNERABILITY INDEX, WHICH USES US CENSUS DATA TO DETERMINE THE SOCIAL VULNERABILITY OF EVERY CENSUS TRACT.
SO BASICALLY WE USE THAT SOCIAL VULNERABILITY INDEX AND THE PROJECT CAN BE AWARDED UP TO 10 POINTS BASED ON THAT.
WE HAVE PARK ACCESS UP TO 10 POINTS.
AND BASICALLY IF THE PROJECT FALLS WITHIN A PARK ACCESS GAP, IF IT'S IN PART OF THE CITY THAT SOMEONE IS NOT ABLE TO BE WITHIN A 10 MINUTE WALK TO A PARK, IT CAN BE AWARDED UP TO 10 POINTS.
AND THEN THE LAST ONE IS FIVE POINTS FOR PARK INVESTMENT.
IF THE PARK HASN'T HAD ANY RECENT INVESTMENT WITHIN THE LAST 10 TO 15 YEARS, IT CAN BE AWARDED UP TO 10 POINTS.
AND THIS DOES INCLUDE INVESTMENT FOR EVALUATION CATEGORY.
WE MENTIONED WE HAD 18 DIFFERENT CATEGORIES OF PROJECTS.
SO BASICALLY THESE ARE EVALUATED PER CATEGORY.
COULD YOU TELL WHAT UNPROGRAMMED PARKS MEANS? UH, UNPROGRAMMED PARKS.
SO LET'S SAY WE OWN PARK PROPERTY THAT IS JUST AN OPEN FIELD.
UH, IT HAS NO IMPROVEMENTS ON IT, ANYTHING LIKE THAT.
SO YOU KNOW, WE HAVE SOME OF THOSE THAT ARE JUST HAVEN'T SEEN INVESTMENT MAYBE EVER.
AND THEY'RE JUST AN OPEN PIECE OF PROPERTY FACILITY.
YEAH, NOT, NOT A PLAYGROUND, NO.
ANY ACTIVE USES, ANYTHING LIKE THAT.
SO ESSENTIALLY THAT'S OUR A HUNDRED POINTS FOR OUR TECHNICAL CRITERIA.
AND RIGHT NOW WE ARE GOING THROUGH AND ACTUALLY SCORING THAT NEEDS INVENTORY, UM, OUT OF THAT A HUNDRED POINTS BECAUSE PRIOR TO, UH, THIS BOND PROGRAM, THE TECHNICAL CRITERIA ACTUALLY HAD A SCORE DIFFERENTLY, UH, DIFFERENT THAN A HUNDRED POINTS.
SO WE'RE ACTUALLY GOING THROUGH AND HAVING TO RESCORE THE NEEDS INVENTORY.
AND THAT'S SOMETHING WE'RE IN THE PROCESS RIGHT NOW AND WE'RE PLANNING TO HOPEFULLY BRING THE NEXT TO THE NEXT MEETING THAT SCORED NEEDS INVENTORY TO YOU TO BE ABLE TO LOOK AT.
SO LOOKING AT THE PROPOSED 2024 BOND PROGRAM PROCESS, I THINK YOU SAW SOME OF THIS THE LAST MEETING, BUT IN MAY, 2023, WE'VE BEEN WORKING ON ESTABLISHING OUR TECHNICAL CRITERIA AND OUR POLICY.
SO WE JUST WENT THROUGH OUR TECHNICAL CRITERIA FOR, UH, THE PARK AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT WITH YOU.
UM, THE SECOND STEP IS TO PRESENT THE NEEDS INVENTORY FROM EACH DEPARTMENT TO THE COUNCIL BY SEPTEMBER, 2023.
ITEM NUMBER THREE IS TO RECEIVE THE FIRST ROUND OF PUBLIC INPUT BY OCTOBER OF 2023, AND THEN GO ACROSS THE BOTTOM OF THIS FOR ITEM NUMBER FOUR BECAUSE IT KIND OF GOES ACROSS THE BOTTOM AND THEN COMES BACK UP.
SO ITEM NUMBER FOUR IS TO PRESENT THE PROPOSED BOND PROGRAM THEMES OF FINANCIAL CAP CAPACITY AND THAT SHOULD HAPPEN BY NOVEMBER, 2023.
AND THEN DRAFT THE PROPOSED BOND PROGRAM TO PRESENT TO CITY COUNCIL BY DECEMBER, 2023.
IF WE NEED A SECOND GROUND OF PUBLIC INPUT FOR THE PROPOSED BOND PROGRAM THAT WOULD HAPPEN IN DECEMBER, 2023 AND JANUARY, 2024, WE WOULD PRESENT THE FINAL PROPOSED BOND PROGRAM IN FUNDING AMOUNTS IN JANUARY, 2024.
THE CALL FOR THE BOND ELECTION WOULD HAPPEN IN JANUARY, 2024.
AND THEN THE ELECTION ITSELF WOULD HAPPEN IN MAY OF 2024.
SO IS THIS SAYING THAT WE'RE NOT GONNA GET THE NEEDS INVENTORY FROM SEPTEMBER? NO.
BASICALLY WE'RE, WE'RE PLANNING TO REVIEW THE NEEDS OF VICTORIA WITH YOU.
BUT THE NEEDS INVENTORY WON'T ACTUALLY GO TO CITY COUNCIL FOR APPROVAL UNTIL SEPTEMBER.
[00:15:04]
SO LOOKING AT HOW WE ACTUALLY MEASURE PARK ACCESS, I MENTIONED THIS 10 MINUTE WALK IN THIS 10 MINUTE SERVICE AREA.SO LOOKING AT THE PARK ACCESS CRITERIA, WE ACTUALLY LOOK AT WHAT WE HAVE AS, AS EXISTING DEDICATED PARKLAND.
WE LOOK AT PARTNERSHIP WITH ISDS, CURRENT ACQUISITIONS AND SPECIAL PROJECTS.
AND OUR 10 MINUTE SERVICE AREAS ARE BASED ON THE CENSUS DATA.
OUR 2020 UPDATE IS EXPECTED ANYTIME FOR THAT.
WE WORK WITH THE TRUST FOR PUBLIC LAND PARK SCORE, WHICH IF YOU'VE NOTICED IN THE NEWSPAPER THE LAST COUPLE DAYS, THEY'VE BEEN MAKING A VERY BIG DEAL OUT OF THE FACT THAT THE CITY OF DALLAS JUMPED 10 POINTS IN THAT PARK SCORE INVENTORY.
AND WE ALSO WORK WITH INTERNAL STAFF ANALYSIS.
SO THE MAPPING AND ANALYSIS ASSUMPTIONS, OUR BASE INFORMATION IS DERIVED FROM THE TRUST FOR PUBLIC LAND GAP ANALYSIS.
OUR DATA WAS RECREATED TO ALLOW ANALYSIS BY COUNCIL DISTRICT.
OUR PARK ACCESS BOUNDARIES ARE BASED ON A 10 MINUTE WALK CALCULATION USING THE STREET NETWORK.
AND OUR ANALYSIS AND RESULTS DO NOT EXTEND BEYOND THE DALLAS CITY LIMITS.
SO TALKING ABOUT WHERE DO WE HAVE PARK GAPS AND EXACTLY WHY.
WELL, IN SOME AREAS WE HAVE LARGE COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES, WE HAVE INDUSTRIAL PROPERTIES, WE HAVE FLOODPLAIN AREAS THAT AREN'T ABLE TO BE DEVELOPED.
WE HAVE PHYSICAL BARRIERS SUCH AS RAILROADS, HIGHWAYS, MAJOR ROADWAYS, OR A DISCONNECTED STREET GRID.
AND WE HAVE PRIVATE GREEN SPACE AND WE TAKE ALL OF THESE BARRIERS INTO ACCOUNT WHILE WE'RE LOOKING AT THAT 10 MINUTE WALK BECAUSE PEOPLE CAN'T WALK ACROSS LARGE COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES, THEY CAN'T WALK ACROSS A RAILROAD.
SO WE WANNA MAKE SURE THAT WHEN WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THIS 10 MINUTE ACCESS, THAT PEOPLE AREN'T HAVING TO CROSS THESE BIG PHYSICAL BARRIERS TO GET TO THAT.
AND ON THE TYPES OF INFORMATION THAT WE HAVE FOR EACH DISTRICT, WE HAVE THE PERCENTAGE OF A DISTRICT WITH AN ATTENDANT WALK TO A PARK.
WE HAVE THE NUMBER OF ACTIVE PARKS, OUR ACRES UNDER ACQUISITION, OUR I S D PARTNERSHIP ACRES, THE PARK ACRES WE HAVE IN EACH DISTRICT, THE NUMBER OF GOLF COURSES AND TENNIS FACILITIES, THE NUMBER OF PORTS, THE NUMBER OF AQUATIC FACILITIES, EXISTING TRAILS FUNDED TRAILS, RECREATION CENTERS AND DOG PARKS.
AND THEN THE PERCENTAGE OF ACTIVE PARK LAND.
AND WITH THAT, I'M GONNA TURN IT OVER TO JARED TO DISCUSS THE ACTUAL DISTRICT MAPS.
BUT I DO WANNA MAKE A DISCLAIMER HERE THAT BASICALLY OUR DATA AND OUR CITY COUNCIL BOUNDARIES ARE CURRENTLY BEING UP IN THE CITY COUNCIL BOUNDARIES JUST BECAME EFFECTIVE THIS MONTH.
SO THE MAPS THAT WE HAVE HERE ARE NOT CURRENTLY UPDATED.
SO WE HAVE THIS HERE FOR INFORMATION AND DISCUSSION ONLY.
WE WANNA BASICALLY GO THROUGH THIS TO SHOW YOU THE TYPE OF DATA WE HAVE.
BUT THIS IS OLD DATA, IT'S GOING TO BE CHANGING.
WE ARE THE MIDST OF UPDATING IT RIGHT NOW.
BUT AGAIN, WE JUST WANTED TO SHOW YOU THE KIND OF DATA WE HAVE AND EXAMPLES OF WHAT WE ARE ABLE TO SHOW YOU AND GIVE YOU.
SO WITH THAT, I'M GONNA TURN IT OVER TO JAR.
NOW THE FUN PART, IF YOU LIKE, MASS AND DATA IS THE FUN PART FOR ME.
SO WE DID THIS ANALYSIS BY EVERY COUNCIL DISTRICT, UM, SO I CAN KIND OF WALK YOU THROUGH.
THERE'S GONNA BE A LOT OF COLORS, A LOT OF DIFFERENT THINGS.
SO THIS, THIS IS, WE'RE GONNA GO ONE THROUGH 14.
SO THIS IS COUNCIL DISTRICT ONE.
YOU KNOW, THE, THE DARK HEAVY BLACK LINE IS THE COUNT, THE COUNCIL BOUNDARY, NOT THE CURRENT, THE NEWLY UPDATED.
UM, THE DARKEST GREEN COLOR IS THE PARKLAND OR AREA THAT'S CONSIDERED PARKS AND OPEN SPACE.
SO YOU SEE THE PORTION OF THE TRINITY RIVER AND THE UPPER RIGHT WITHIN DISTRICT ONE STEVENS GOLF COURSE KIDS SPRINGS.
UH, SO THAT'S WHAT THAT DARKEST COLOR IS.
THEN YOU'RE GONNA SEE A LOT OF SHADING THAT IS NOW OVERLAPPING.
SO IF YOU FIND A DARK GREEN SPACE TO IDENTIFY AS A PARK, THEN IF YOU LOOK AT THE NEXT COLOR, IT'S KIND OF THAT KIND OF A MUSTARDY, THAT LIGHT COLOR THAT IS THE 10 MINUTE WALKING BOUNDARY.
AND SO YOU'LL SEE IT'S KIND OF IN A REGULAR SHAPE.
IT'S NOT A COMPLETE CIRCLE BECAUSE WE ARE USING THE STREET GRID.
AND SO IT'S ACTUALLY FOLLOWING YOUR A ROUTE, SOMEONE WOULD TAKE IN 10 MINUTES TO WALK THAT DISTANCE AND THEN YOU'LL SEE WHERE IT HITS UP AGAINST THE CITY LIMITS FOR THE, UH, CITY OF COROLL HILL WHERE OUR ANALYSIS STOPS.
SO WE'RE NOT COUNTING ANYTHING OUTSIDE OF THE DISTRICT.
UM, AND IT WILL STOP AT KIND OF BIG BOUNDARIES OR NOT BIG BOUNDARIES, BUT BIG, THESE PHYSICAL BARRIERS.
IF YOU KIND OF LOOK DEAD CENTER, THERE'S A NEXT KIND OF A, A LIGHTER GREEN COLOR, KIND OF A GRANNY SMITH, APPLE GREEN IF YOU WILL.
THAT'S THE IDENTIFICATION WHERE, UH, KEVIN SLOAN PARK IS GOING.
SO WE'RE DESIGNATING NEW PARKS THAT ARE GOING IN AND YOU CAN SEE THAT A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENCE SHADING IN HOW THAT STARTS TO OVERLAP AND FILL IN A FEW GAPS.
AND THEN THAT DEEP KIND OF CRIMSON OR MAROON COLOR, THOSE ARE, ARE, HOW DO YOU SAY, RIGHT? OUR ISSD PARTNERSHIP PARK.
[00:20:01]
THE, THE SCHOOLS THAT WE'RE WORKING WITH IN ATTIC PARK AMENITIES.AND YOU CAN REALLY SEE THE IMPACT THOSE START TO MAKE, UM, UH, FOR FILLING IN DIFFERENT GAPS.
SO THIS IS WHAT EVERY MAP IS GOING TO LOOK LIKE COLOR THEME WISE.
SO THEY'LL GIVE YOU SOME ORIENTATION.
UM, AND WHAT WE DID WITH THIS, WE CAN GO TO THE NEXT SLIDE WE LOOKED AT THE NEXT EXAMPLE IS, YOU KNOW, THE EXPLANATION OF WHY WE GOT, UH, COUNT, UH, GAPS IN OUR GAP WALK ANALYSIS.
AND SO A LOT OF IT IS THE THING ON THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
IT COULD BE A LARGE RESIDENTIAL AREA THAT DOESN'T HAVE PARK IN IT.
IN THESE CASES YOU'VE GOT YOUR COMMERCIAL CORRIDORS AND YOUR RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS, UH, SPECIFIC TO THIS ONE.
AND THEN IF WE GO TO THE NEXT MAP FOR THE NEXT GRAPH, SO THIS IS WHERE WE'RE LOOKING AT WHAT WE HAVE IS OUR, OUR ASSET INVENTORY.
SO IT'S A BIG, A BIG TABLE THAT LISTS EVERY PARK, EVERY DISTRICT AND ALL THE AMENITIES THAT ARE IN THAT.
EVERY PROCESS UPDATING THAT AND THAT'S GOING INTO THIS PROCESS.
SO KEEPING IN MIND WHAT CHRIS SAID, IF THINGS IS, YOU GOTTA KNOW YOUR DISTRICT.
SO IF SOMETHING DOESN'T SEEM RIGHT, IT COULD BE BECAUSE SOMETHING HAD NOT BEEN UPDATED YET, ONLY ACCOUNTING FOR SOMETHING OR PERHAPS A PROJECT WASN'T COMPLETE AND DIDN'T COUNTED AND THAT'S ALL GONNA GET UPDATED ON THIS NEXT DRAFT.
SOMETHING ELSE TO CONSIDER IS WE DID NOT STOP THE ANALYSIS AT THE COUNCIL BOUNDARIES.
MEANING, UM, YOU MAY SAY THIS IS NOT THE BEST EXAMPLE, BUT OH, SO DISTRICT ONE, WELL THAT'S NOT AN EXAMPLE ANYWAY.
LET'S SAY IT SAYS THERE'S A DOG PARK AND YOU'RE LIKE, THERE'S NO DOG PARK IN MY DISTRICT.
WELL, THERE MIGHT BE, NOT BE, BUT ACROSS THE STREET IN THE NEXT DISTRICT THERE IS, AND TECHNICALLY A PERSON FROM YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD THAT DISTRICT CAN WALK ACROSS THE STREET.
SO IT'S NOT NECESSARILY WHAT YOU HAVE IN YOUR DISTRICT PER SE, IT'S WHAT YOUR RESIDENTS CAN HAVE ACCESS TO.
SO IT'S LITTLE SOMETHING DIFFERENT TO THINK ABOUT CAUSE IT'S A LITTLE CONFUSING, BUT IT'S LOOKING AT PURE ACCESS AND NOT LOOKING AND NOT STOPPING AT THE COUNCIL BAND CUZ IT COULD BE A LITTLE PARKED.
BUT, SO THIS GIVES YOU A SNAPSHOT OF DISTRICT ONE.
UH, WE HAD FOUR POINT, UH, 30, UH, YEAH, 30 ACTIVE PARTS, 4.4 ACRES THAT ARE UNDER ACQUISITION, 5.2 ACRES THAT ARE PART OF OUR IST PARTNERSHIPS.
UH, A TOTAL OF 496 ACRES OF THE PARKLAND.
AND THE 6% ACTIVE PARKLAND MEANS OF THE GEOGRAPHY WITHIN DISTRICT ONE, 6% OF THE LAND AREA IS PARKLAND OR AVAILABLE FOR PARK USE.
AND FOR DISTRICT ONE, THEY HAVE 79% OF THE RESIDENTS ARE WITHIN A 10 MINUTE WALK.
WHAT ARE THE CURRENT CITYWIDE PACKAGES? UH, THERE'S STILL SOME GAPS, STILL IMPROVEMENTS TO BE MADE, BUT THEY'RE, BUT THEY'RE LOOKING IN PRETTY GOOD SHAPE.
UM, ALSO ADDITIONAL, UH, INPUT.
SO THEY HAVE A GOLF COURSE, TENNIS FACILITIES.
THERE IS ACTUALLY MORE THAN ONE O'CLOCK FACILITY NOW.
THE AMOUNT OF TRAILS, 2.8 MILES THAT ARE EXISTING ON THE GROUND, 2.8 MILES THAT ARE FUNDED IN SOME STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT TO REC CENTERS.
DON'T YOU TELL ME WHAT THE BROWN LEGEND, UH, THE BROWN COLOR IS.
I DON'T SEE A LEGEND FOR THAT.
UH, ARE WE TALKING ABOUT LIKE RIGHT HERE, THE BROWN BY THE RED? THIS, THIS DARKEST BROWN COLOR.
THOSE ARE, THAT'S THE 10 MINUTE WALK BOUNDARY FOR OUR SCHOOL PARTNERSHIP LOCATIONS.
SO EVERYWHERE THAT WHERE WE GO AND PARTNER WITH THE SCHOOL TO PUT IN A PLAYGROUND OR DO OTHER IMPROVEMENTS, WE'RE COUNTING THAT TOWARD OUR INVENTORY NOW.
AND SO THAT'S THE 10 MINUTE WALK SHED FOR THOSE SCHOOLS WHERE WE HAVE THE LIGHT BROWN, BUT YOU GOT A DARK BROWN.
SO THESE LAYERS ARE ALL SITTING ON TOP OF EACH OTHER.
SO FOR THAT EXAMPLE WHERE YOU SEE THAT DARK CRIMSON, IT LOOKS REALLY, REALLY DARK, DARK BROWN.
THEN YOU'VE GOT KIND OF THAT SHADING THAT'S OVER ON THE, THE LEFT SIDE OF THAT POLYGON.
SO IT'S, WE DIDN'T QUITE CUT EVERYTHING.
IT'S, YOU'RE SHOWING HOW EACH 10 MINUTE WALK SET IS OVERLAPPING WITH EACH OTHER.
SO IT SHOWS US WHERE WE ARE FILLING IN GAPS AND MAYBE WE'RE GOING INTO AREAS THAT ALREADY ARE WITHIN A 10 MINUTE WALK.
SO THE AREAS THAT ARE STILL HAVE A GAP ARE THIS LIGHTEST, LIGHTEST, KIND OF TAN OR PEACH SHADING THAT'S KIND OF OUTSIDE OF THESE 10 MINUTE WALK AREAS.
JR I'M JUST GONNA TELL YOU, WE KNOW THIS IS THE BEST DISTRICT IN TOWN,
WE WE'RE TRYING TO BE ABOVE THAT 79% AND LIKE YOU SAID, WE GOT AN ACQUISITION, BUT UM, DO YOU KNOW THIS ONE ISN'T CHANGE MUCH, DOES IT? I DON'T THINK DISTRICT WOULDN'T CHANGE VERY MUCH.
I THINK IT COULD JUST GIVE LIKE A COUPLE BLOCKS.
SAW I CIRCLED THAT SAYS RESIDENTIAL COMMERCIAL CORNER, LIKE IT'S A LIGHT PAGE.
WHAT IS THAT? THAT IS IDENTIFYING WHERE WE HAVE A 10 MINUTE WALK GAP.
SO THERE'S NOT A PARK IN THAT AREA AND IT'S JUST IDENTIFYING WHAT TYPE OF LAND USE IS HAPPENING THERE.
WHY IS THERE A GAP? BUT, UH, THAT'S JUST A COMMERCIAL AREA
[00:25:01]
AND YOU'VE GOT JUST, YOU KNOW, SINGLE FAMILY OR MULTI-FAMILY HOUSING WITH NO PARK LANE WITHIN THAT.YEAH, WE'RE, WE'RE NOT INTERACTING.
I MEAN THERE'S A LOT TO LOOK AT AND THERE'S A LOT OF COLORS.
SO WE CAN, WE CAN JUST STEP THROUGH EACH OF THESE AS WE NEED TO.
ONCE YOU GET THE COLOR SCHEME DOWN AGAIN, THEY ALL LOOK THE SAME.
SO YOU'LL START GET THE, GET THE PATTERNS DOWN.
I MEAN OBVIOUSLY YOU'D UM, HOW DO WE COMPARE LIKE MATCH NATURALLY? ARE THERE ANY FIGURES AS TO WHAT WOULD THE KIND OF, UH, THAT'S WE, THERE WERE ACCEPTABLE.
SO I THINK WE ARE AT WHAT, 40, 43 NATIONALLY I THINK IS THAT RIGHT? SO WE ACTUALLY GAIN, WENT UP 10 POINTS, RIGHT? NATIONALLY.
UM, I THINK OUR SCORING WE'RE AT WHAT, 76% SURE.
JARED PARK, THE HIGHEST PARK ACCESS IN TEXAS IS PLANO AND 78%, RIGHT? YEAH.
SO WE'RE NOT TOO FAR BEHIND IN PLANO, BUT SO WE'RE 73%.
AND THAT PUTS US, WE'RE AT 41.
WAS IT 40? THAT'S, THAT'S PARK SCORE.
WHICH IS SERIES OF METRICS BEYOND JUST PARK ACCESS.
BUT IF YOU'RE LOOKING STRICTLY AT PARK ACCESS MM-HMM.
WHEN YOU SAY RIO RANK 43 NATIONALLY THOUGH, WHAT IS THAT? SO LOOKING AT THE, AGAIN, THIS IS TOTAL PARK SCORE, WHICH GETS INTO ALL THESE DIFFERENT METRICS ABOUT ACCESSIBILITY AND TYPES OF PLAY EQUIPMENT AND TYPES OF FACILITIES.
WE RANKED 43 NATIONALLY, WHICH IT'S, WE'RE, WE'RE OVER THE, THE, THE HALFWAY MARK NOW.
SO WE'RE GETTING KIND OF IN THE UPPER TIER.
UM, I'M SORRY, I, SORRY, I DON'T HAVE THE BREAKDOWN OF ALL THE, LIKE THE BEST CITIES, WHAT, WHAT, WHAT THEIR SCORE WAS.
BUT THEY'RE GETTING CLOSER TO LIKE, YOU KNOW, 80 AND PLUS PERCENT.
THE, THE TOP IN TEXAS, UH, FOR YOUR INFORMATION IS PLANO.
YEAH, I THINK THEY'RE NUMBER 18.
THE NEXT HIGHEST IS AUSTIN, WHO'S 41? WE'RE THE THIRD HIGHEST IN TEXAS AT 43.
I BELIEVE, IF I RECALL CORRECTLY, IT WAS WASHINGTON DC THAT WAS THE FIRST, I THINK IT WAS 83 OR 84% CORRECT.
IT WAS A BIG DEAL FOR US TO JOB 10, 10 POINTS.
THAT WAS DISTRICT SEVEN WE'RE GO INTO DISTRICT, UH, TWO.
SO DISTRICT TWO CHANGED QUITE A BIT, BUT AGAIN, THIS IS THE OLD DISTRICT BOUNDARY.
THERE'S A LOT GOING ON ON THIS MAP BECAUSE WE HAD TO ZOOM OUT QUITE A BIT, UH, TO FIT THAT ALL IN.
UM, BUT YOU CAN SEE SOME GAPS.
WE'LL GO AHEAD AND GO TO THE NEXT SLIDE.
WILL WE IDENTIFY THE DIFFERENCE I SLIDE NUMBER? UM, SO OF COURSE YOU HAVE LOVEFIELD AIRPORT.
UM, YOU'VE GOT SOME MIXED USE COMMERCIAL ZONES THAT ARE OVER OFF MOCKINGBIRD IN THAT AREA.
UH, THE BIG METAL DISTRICT FORCE.
UM, WE WANNA SEE WHAT OPPORTUNITIES WE HAVE AS THOSE BIG CAMPUSES DEVELOP AND REDEVELOP, BUT THEY'RE, YOU KNOW, TAKING UP QUITE A BIT OF SPACE.
UM, KIND OF RIGHT NOW IT SAYS THE FUTURE HIGH SPEED RAIL STATION DOWN THE CEDARS.
WE MIGHT HAVE TO CHANGE THAT LABEL, BUT IT'S JUST KIND OF THAT, THAT THOSE BIG LAND HOLDINGS THAT ARE DOWN THERE IN CEDARS AND CEDARS WEST ALONG THE RIVERFRONT THAT HAVE BEEN KIND OF WAITING TO SEE WHAT HAPPENED WITH THE HIGH SPEED RAIL.
BUT THAT'S ANOTHER BIG KIND OF INDUSTRIAL ZONE THAT'S IN THE MIDST OF TRANSITION TO KIND OF A MIXED USE COMMERCIAL LAND RESIDENT.
WE CAN GET INTO THE, THE PERCENTAGES.
MR. DUES DOING PRETTY GOOD TOO.
68% ACCESS TO TWO TO 10 MINUTE.
UH, SO THAT'S 47 PARKS, UH, JUST UNDER HALF AN ACRE UNDER ACQUISITION.
UH, 2.2 ACRES OF OF UH, ISD SCHOOLS, ISD PARTNERSHIPS RATHER, WHICH LEADS TO 714 ACRES PARK ACRES TOTAL.
AND AGAIN, ABOUT 6% CUZ DISTRICT TWO IS REALLY BIG.
THEY HAVE TWO TENNIS FACILITIES AND AQUATIC CENTER AND 9.8 OF TRAILS THAT ARE EXISTING ON THE GROUND.
3.9 THAT ARE FUNDED INTO SOME STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT.
SIX REC CENTERS AND UH, THREE DOG PARKS.
AND REMEMBER THEY COULD BE CAPTURING A DOG PARK AT A DIFFERENT DISTRICT, BUT YOU CAN STILL KIND OF WALK ACROSS THE STREET AND GET, SO THAT'S QUITE SUCH BE, UM, IF WE WANNA KEEP ON MOVING TO DISTRICT THREE AND WE'LL GO AHEAD AND KIND OF SKIP TO THE 24 JUST SO WE CAN SEE THE SAME INFORMATION.
UH, AGAIN, YOU'VE GOT DALLAS TICKET, THE AIRPORT, UH, AS YOU GET INTO AREAS AROUND UM, FOUR OH EIGHTS, YOU KNOW, THEY'RE AROUND MOUNTAIN CREEK.
WE HAVE A LOT OF UNDEVELOPED PROPERTY.
A LOT OF IT'S KIND OF, KIND OF MIXED WAREHOUSE COMMERCIAL TYPE USES OVER IN THAT AREA.
UM, ALSO THE HENSLEY FIELD UP IN KIND OF THE UPPER LEFT, THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF TALK ABOUT REDOING THE NAVAL AIR STATION.
UH, SO THAT COULD CHANGE THINGS GREATLY
[00:30:01]
FOR DISTRICT THREE DEPENDING ON HOW THAT SITE DEVELOPS OVER TIME.AND THEN LOOKING AT THE STATISTICS DISTRICT THREE ON THE NEXT SLIDE.
SO THEY'RE AT 42% OF THE DISTRICT.
UM, SO STILL WORK TO BE DONE, BUT THERE ARE SOME LARGE PROPERTIES THAT WE WON'T BE ABLE TO ADDRESS LIKE THE EXACT, THE AIRPORT AND MAYBE SOME OF THOSE LARGE COMMERCIAL WAREHOUSE ZONES.
BUT WE COULD STILL LOOK AT OTHER OPPORTUNITIES LIKE HENSLEY FIELD TO FILL IN THOSE GAPS.
SO THEY HAVE 39 PARKS, UH, 36.2 ACRES THAT ARE UNDER ACQUISITION.
UH, 1.7 ACRES OF THE SCHOOL PARTNERSHIPS.
TOTAL PARK ACRES OF OVER 1717 32.
SO THEY'VE GOT SOME, WHAT THEY DO HAVE, THEY'RE PRETTY SIZABLE, UH, BUT AGAIN IT ONLY ADDS UP TO ABOUT 5% OF THE TOTAL LAND AREA.
UH, THEY ALSO HAVE A GOLF COURSE, 10, 6, 10 FACILITIES, UH, NO ATHLETIC CENTERS.
16.8 MILES OF TRAILS ON THE GROUND.
6.4 ARE FUNDED AND IN DEVELOPMENT.
THREE REC CENTERS AND NO DOCKS CURRENTLY.
UM, AGAIN, YOU CAN SEE THE GAPS HERE.
YOU KNOW, THEY'VE GOT THE, THE WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT.
UM, ANOTHER GAPS ARE KIND OF RESIDENTIAL WAREHOUSE TYPE AREAS OF SOME VACANT LOTS THAT HAVE NOT BEEN DEVELOPED.
UM, AGAIN, JUST KIND OF JUST LARGER RESIDENTIAL AREAS THAT WERE BUILT AND YOU JUST DON'T HAVE ENOUGH PARKLAND TO FILL IN ALL THE GAPS FOR FULL ACCESSIBILITY.
THAT'S QUITE A BIT OF WHAT'S HAPPENING IN DISTRICT FOUR.
UH, BUT LOOKING AT THE STATISTICS, WE'RE DOING PRETTY GOOD ALSO.
UM, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF THE AREAS OF THE CITY THAT ARE THE OLDER PARTS OF TOWN, THEY TEND TO HAVE MORE PARK.
AND YOU'LL SEE THIS AS WE PROGRESS AND MOVE AROUND THE CITY AND LOOK AT D HOW DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE CITY OF DECADES THEY DEVELOPED IN.
SOME ARE JUST HUGE SWATHS OF RESIDENTIAL WITH ALMOST NO PARKLAND.
WHILE SOME ARE HAVE MORE REGIMENTED RID OF STREETS WITH HOUSING IN MIXED USE AREAS AND PARKS SCATTERED IN.
SO THAT'S WHY I SEE THE PERCENTAGES HAVE CHANGING QUITE A BIT.
UH, SO THEY HAVE IN DISTRICT, UH, DISTRICT FOUR, UH, 53 PARKS, UM, ALMOST 91 ACRES THAT ARE UNDER ACQUISITION.
6.6 ACRES, PART OF SCHOOL PARTNERSHIPS.
SO AGAIN, THEY HAVE QUITE A BIT OF, OF OF LARGE PARK GROUP.
IT'S ABOUT NINE, MAKES UP 9% IN THE DISTRICT IN ITS ACTIVE PARKLAND WITH THE GOLF COURSE.
A TENNIS CENTERS AND NO AQUATIC FACILITIES.
ALMOST 14 MILES OF EXISTING TRAILS.
4.4 MILES THAT ARE FUNDED AND IN DEVELOPMENT.
AND SIX PARK CENTER WE'LL BE ON DISTRICT FIVE.
KIND OF A SIMILAR, AGAIN, WE HAVE JUST SOME LARGER RESIDENTIAL ZONES.
WE HAVE SOME LITTLE BIT OF A DISCONNECTED GRID DOWN HERE IN DISTRICT FIVE.
SO WHILE IT'S A LOT OF RESIDENTIAL AND FAIRLY DENSE COMPARATIVELY, THE STREET GRID'S VERY DISJOINTED SO IT'S HARD TO WALK AND GET AROUND.
SO YOU MAY HAVE A HOUSE HERE AND THE PARKS OVER THERE MAY GOTTA KIND OF GO ALL THE WAY AROUND TO GET TO, CAUSE THERE'S NO WAY TO GET ACROSS EITHER PRIVATE PROPERTY OR SOME OTHER SOMETHING ELSE THAT MAY BE.
AND THEN LOOKING AT THEIR STATISTICS FOR DISTRICT FIVE, SO THEY'RE AT 58%.
UM, THEY HAVE 35 ACTIVE PARTS, 17 AND A HALF ACRES THAT ARE UNDER ACQUISITION.
ALMOST 15, UH, PARTNERSHIPS WITH SCHOOLS FOR ACRES.
UH, WHAT'S 1600, 1636 ACRES WHICH ADDS UP TO THEY TWO HAVE A GOLF COURSE AND TWO TENNIS FACILITIES AND AQUATIC CENTER, AQUATIC FACILITY DEPARTMENT, UH, 20 MILES OF TRAILS THAT ARE, UH, EXISTING ON THE GROUND.
ALMOST TWO MILES THAT ARE FUNDED AND GOLF AND TWO RECREATION SITES.
DISTRICT SIX, AGAIN THIS ONE'S GET LITTLE, A LITTLE CLUTTERED CUZ WE HAVE TO PULL, KIND OF GET THIS PULL OUT TO TO SEE EVERYTHING.
UM, AGAIN, A LOT OF RESIDENTIAL ZONES IN DISTRICT SIX THAT UH, DON'T HAVE DEVELOPMENT.
UH, WE HAVE A LOT OF WAREHOUSE AND COMMERCIAL DISTRICT SIX, CERTAINLY IN THE STEADMAN'S CORRIDOR ALL THE WAY FROM NORTHWEST DALLAS NEAR 6 35 ALL THE WAY DOWN, YOU KNOW, DOWN OFF COMMONWEALTH AND MOCKINGBIRD IN 35 AND GETTING INTO THE MEDICAL DISTRICT.
UM, THEN WHEN YOU'RE IN WEST DALLAS, OF COURSE A LOT OF, YOU KNOW, OLDER COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL AREAS THAT UM, WERE DEVELOPED A LOT OF THAT AREAS CHANGING RAPIDLY.
UH, SO WE NEED TO WORK AND KIND OF FOCUS ON THOSE AREAS OF WHERE WE CAN GET AHEAD AND IT'S NOT TOO LATE GETTING AHEAD OF DEVELOPMENT AND START GETTING PARKLAND IN BECAUSE THAT'S REALLY BEING REDEVELOPED A LOT FOR LARGE MULTI-FAMILY AND SINGLE FAMILY HOME DEVELOPMENT.
SO DISTRICT SIX, THEY'RE AT ABOUT 45%.
RESIDENTS ARE WITHIN A 10 MINUTE WALK.
WE HAVE 40 ACTIVE PARK, UH, JUST UNDER THREE ACRES UNDER UNDER ACQUISITION.
UH, 1.1 ACRES ARE SCHOOL PARTNERSHIPS.
UH, THEY HAVE OVER 4,000 ACRES, SO THEY'VE GOT QUITE A BIT CAUSE THEY WERE CAPTURING THE TRAINING RIVER CORRIDOR AND SOME OF THOSE BEEN LIKE THE HOMEM FORK.
SO WE'RE GETTING A LOT OF THAT.
AND SO THAT ACCOUNTS FOR ABOUT 16% OF THE LAND AREA DEPARTMENT.
UH, THEY TWO HAVE GOLF COURSE, FOUR TENNIS CENTERS,
[00:35:01]
TWO QUAD FACILITIES, UM, 22 MILES OF EXISTING TRAILS.UH, ABOUT HALF A MILE THAT ARE FUNDED IN THE DEVELOPMENT, EXCUSE ME.
UM, AGAIN KIND OF SIMILAR TO SOME OTHER DISTRICTS WHERE, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF KIND OF WAREHOUSE RESIDENTIAL AREAS AND YOU'RE GETTING CLOSER TO THE HIGHWAYS.
UM, KIND OF SOME UNDER UNDEVELOPED AREAS CUZ YOU'RE GETTING DOWN INTO THE TREND FOREST, THE KIND OF THAT, THAT CENTER KIND OF MIDDLE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT, YOU KNOW, RESIDENTIAL WITH THE TRENDY HORSE PARK.
YOU'RE GETTING TO A LOT OF FLOODPLAIN DOWN HERE.
SO AREAS THAT ARE PROBABLY MAYBE UNDERDEVELOPED OR MAYBE UNDEVELOPABLE JUST BECAUSE THEY'RE SO CLOSE TO THE TRAINING FOR THE TRAINING FOREST AND AREAS THAT GO UNDERWATER.
SO THEN LOOKING AT THIS, THEIR STATISTICS, THEY'RE RIGHT ABOUT 50% FOR A 10 MINUTE WALK.
THEY HAVE 45 ACTIVE PARKS, 155 ACRES THAT ARE UNDER ACQUISITION.
UH, THE LAND USE WITHIN THE AREA, UH, NO GOLF COURSES.
THEY HAVE EIGHT TENNIS FACILITIES, NO AQUATIC FACILITIES.
UM, 6.8 MILES OF TRAIL THAT ARE ON THE GROUND.
ANOTHER, UH, ALMOST 10 OR NINE AND A HALF THAT ARE FUNDED AND IN DEVELOPMENT AND FOUR RECREATION CENTERS.
WHEN WHEN WILL YOU, UH, WILL YOU, WHEN YOU UPDATE THE COUNCIL DISTRICTS, WILL YOU BE UPDATING THE DATA AS WELL? OH YEAH, BECAUSE THIS DATA IS YEAH, I, YEAH.
YEAH, IT'S, IT'S PROBABLY, WE CLOSED ON PARKDALE OVER A YEAR AGO.
UM, DISTRICT FOUR CLOSED ON THE 90 SOME ACRES WELL BEFORE THAT.
UM, SO WE'RE PRESENTING OUTDATED INFORMATION.
SO WE GOTTA MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE, WE'RE ONLY AS GOOD AS OUR TEAM.
THAT'S WHY I WANTED TO MAKE IT CLEAR, SINCE WE DIDN'T GET UPDATED COMPLETE INFORMATION UPDATED UNTIL FIRST MONTH, IT, IT, WE WOULD'VE, WE, WE COULDN'T GO IN AND START REALLY PIECEMEALING.
AND SO I, I, YEAH, THE LAND ACQUISITIONS AND STUFF LIKE THAT IS SOMETHING THAT WE MAINTAIN THAT'S NOT BASED ON COUNCIL DISTRICTS, BUT WE HAVE A VERY LIMITED TIME HERE, SIX MEETINGS OR SO TO, TO GET THIS ALL TOGETHER.
AND WE CAN'T ALWAYS GO, WE CAN'T GO OVER DATA MORE THAN ONE TIME.
YOU KNOW IT, I DON'T ANTICIPATE.
I AGREE WITH YOU A HUNDRED PERCENT.
THIS NEEDS TO BE UPDATED AND IT'S GOING TO BE UPDATED.
BUT WHAT WE'RE REALLY GONNA BE FOCUSING ON IS THE NEEDS INVENTORY.
AND THAT'S GOING TO BE UPDATED BY THE NEW COUNCIL BOUNDARIES CUZ SOME PARTS ARE MOVING AROUND BASED ON THE BOUNDARY THAT'S GONNA BE UPDATED.
AND WE HAVE THAT BE UPDATED IN OUR OVERALL ASSET INVENTORY.
IF YOU HAVE, FOR EXAMPLE, PARKDALE LAKE IS 140 ACRES OR 120 ACRES OR WHATEVER THAT WE'RE UNDER ACQUISITION, BUT WE'RE NOT AC ACQUIRING THAT ANYMORE.
THAT'S ALREADY IN OUR INVENTORY.
SO NOW WE HAVE TO PLAN FOR, YOU KNOW, THE PLAN OR WHAT WE'RE GONNA PUT INTO IT.
SO WE'RE NOT ACQUIRING IT ANYMORE.
WE ACTUALLY HAVE TO PHYSICALLY BUILD IT OUT.
SO WE'VE GOTTA HAVE, I MEAN WE JUST HAVE TO HAVE ACCURATE INFORMATION AT THIS STAGE, YOU KNOW, AND THAT'S SOMETHING NOT DETERMINED BY COUNCIL DISTRICTS, UM, OR BY THE NEW BOUNDARIES.
IT'S OFF OUR DATA IN THE PARK DEPARTMENT.
WHAT I CAN SAY TO THAT IS WE HAVE ADDED LINE ITEMS WITHIN THE UPDATE AS WE'RE UPDATE THE NEEDS INVENTORY TO THAT FOR PARKDALE.
WE KNOW IT DOESN'T NEED TO BE LISTED AS AN ACQUISITION IF IT EVER WAS, BUT NOW IT'S LIKE WE NEED TO HAVE A LINE ITEM FOR DEVELOPMENT.
THE SAME THING FOR EVERY DISTRICT WE'VE MET WITH, CUZ WE'VE BEEN MEETING WITH ALL THE COUNCIL AND PARK BOARD MEMBERS.
UM, ANYTIME THEY TALK ABOUT LAND ACQUISITION, WE ARE ADDING THAT IN AND ACCOUNTING FOR IT.
AND THEN IF WE NEED TO ADD ANOTHER LINE IEM FOUR DEVELOPMENT BASED ON WHATEVER THE NEED BE.
UM, WHEN YOU SEE THE NEEDS INVENTORY, THESE ITEMS ARE CORRECTED IN THAT DOCUMENT.
AND I, IT'S JUST THE GRAPHICS HAVEN'T CAUGHT UP YET.
AND JARED, ARE YOU CALL, ARE WE CALLING LAND OR GREEN SPACE AND ATTORNEY ROOM RECORDER BETWEEN LEVY'S PARK? IT IS CONSIDERED OPEN SPACE.
YES, IT'S, IT'S, IT'S, IT'S OPEN SPACE.
SO ANYTHING THAT COUNT DOES NOT COUNTED IN THE CEMETERY.
WE, WE COUNT IT AS PART OF OUR OVERALL PARK OR OPEN SPACE ACCESS.
BUT IT DOES NOT PARKLAND DESIGNATED.
A LOT OF IT'S DALLAS WATER UTILITIES.
UM, WHATEVER USE THEY MAY HAVE.
BUT A LOT OF IT IS OPEN FOR EITHER CONSERVATION OR INACTIVE USE.
UM, SO WE'RE GETTING, WE'RE GONNA GET, WE'RE GETTING NUANCED ON LANGUAGE BECAUSE IT'S NOT PARKLAND, BUT IT'S OPEN SPACE THAT WE CAN COUNT TOWARD THESE NUMBERS.
WHEN WE, WHEN WE FILL OUT OUR INFORMATION FROM THE TRUST REPUBLIC LAND, THEY HAVE A LOT OF DIFFERENT CATEGORIES OF DIFFERENT LAND THAT YOU HAVE ACCESS TO.
[00:40:01]
IS IT ACTIVE? DO YOU, IS IT STRICTLY CONSERVATION LAND THAT, THAT YOU DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO? THEY GET, THEY DRILL DOWN WAY INTO THAT TO COME UP WITH THEIR STAT, THEIR STATS.SO DO THOSE GREEN SPACES, ARE THEY INCLUDED SPARK ACREAGE TO YOU? YES.
IF, IF YOU'RE, IF YOU'RE MENTIONING WHAT I WAS JUST DISCUSSING WITH DO WATER UTILITIES, YEAH.
A LOT OF THAT IS COUNTING TOWARD OUR, OUR PARK NUMBERS.
BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH IT'S MANAGED BY ANOTHER DEPARTMENT, IT STILL COUNTS TOWARD OUR OPEN SPACE CUZ IT HAS KIND OF A DUAL, YOU KNOW, FLOOD CONTROL AND RECREATIONAL ROLE.
SO WE'RE ABLE TO COUNT THAT TOWARD OUR OVERALL NUMBERS.
EVEN THOUGH WE, THE PARK DEPARTMENT DON'T OWN IT.
SOMEBODY SHOULD BE, UNLESS WE'RE SHUT DOWN AND NO PUBLIC ACCESS ALLOWED, BUT THOSE PUBLIC, YEAH.
LET'S SEE, ARE WE ON DISTRICT DATES? MR. GATES? OKAY.
SO AGAIN, UM, WE HAVE A LOT OF UNDEVELOPED LAND DOWN IN DISTRICT EIGHT, AROUND THE I 20 CORRIDOR.
THAT AREA IS ACTUALLY SEEING QUITE A BIT OF DEVELOPMENT.
UM, YOU KNOW, YOU'RE, SINCE YOU'RE DOWN BY I 20, YOU'VE GOT A LOT OF INFRASTRUCTURE.
UH, BUT BEFORE YOU STARTED YOU TOLD THAT A LOT OF THIS IS GOING CHANGE, RIGHT? YES.
SO THAT'S WHAT, UM, SO THAT'S WHY I SEE SOME OF THE GAPS AS YOU HAVE A LOT OF JUST LARGE RETAIL COMMERCIAL ZONES.
YOU KNOW, THE FREEWAY INTERCHANGES, UM, LANDFILLS DOWN THERE, THAT TAKES UP QUITE A BIT OF SPACE.
UM, WE'RE GETTING SOME, LIKE IN THE KLEBERG AREA, STILL SOMEWHAT UNDEVELOPED.
WE'RE GETTING OF LARGE, LARGER RESIDENTIAL ZONES THAT ARE LOOKING AT THEIR STATISTICS FOR DISTRICT EIGHT, ABOUT 32% OF THE, THEN THAT'S PROBABLY DUE TO A LOT OF THE COMMERCIAL AREAS AND THE LARGE KIND OF UNDEVELOPED AREAS THAT ARE OUT HERE STILL.
WE HAVE 41 ACTIVE PARKS UNDER 90 ACRES THAT WERE UNDER ACQUISITION.
UH, 10, I'M SORRY, 10 ACRES OF ISD PARTNERSHIPS.
OVER 1700 ACRES OF PARKLAND IN TOTAL, WHICH ACCOUNTS FOR 5% OF THE OVERALL PARKLAND.
YOU HAVE 10, 10 FACILITIES, NO AQUATICS FACILITIES.
UM, 12 MILES OF TRAILS, TWO AND A HALF THAT ARE FUNDED AND IN DEVELOPMENT.
AND FOR RECREATION CENTER NINE, UM, A LOT OF THE OPEN SPACE WITHIN OR THE, THE UN OR THE, THE PARK GAP AREAS WITHIN INDUSTRY NINE ARE LARGELY RESIDENTIAL.
YOU HAVE JUST A LOT OF LARGE RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS THAT WERE JUST DEVELOPED.
WE HAVE SOME KIND OF WAREHOUSE COMMERCIAL AREAS OUT THERE NEAR, UH, SORRY, THAT'S 6 35 THAT COMES TO A LOT OF THOSE GAPS.
AND LOOKING AT THERE STATISTICS ON THE NEXT SLIDE, THEY'RE AT ABOUT 64% WITH 10 MINUTE WALK ACCESS.
UH, NOTHING CURRENTLY UNDER ACQUISITION.
UH, 0.2 ACRES OF THE SCHOOL PARTNERSHIPS OVER 1400 PARK ACRES AND AT COUNTABLE 4% OF THEIR ACTIVE PARK LAND.
UH, THEY HAVE A GOLF COURSE, SAY 10 FACILITIES, AN AQUATIC CENTER, UM, 18.8 MILES OF THE EXISTING TRAILS, NOTHING THAT'S CURRENTLY FUNDED AND IN DEVELOPMENT.
AND THEN TWO RECREATION CENTERS.
AND THEY DO HAVE DEVELOP MR 10.
UM, A LOT OF THEIR, THEIR GAPS ARE DUE TO LIKE THOSE LARGE DISTRIBUTION CENTERS AND WATERHOUSE AREAS AND THE TI CAMPUS THAT'S OVER NEAR UH, CENTRAL AND 6 35 AND A LARGE, YOU KNOW, AGAIN, THOSE LARGE COMMERCIAL ZONES THAT ARE NORTH OF 6 35 IN THE KIND OF SKILLMAN ALIA AREA.
SO THERE ARE STATS, THEY'RE AT ABOUT 56% OVERALL.
AND THEN AT WAL WE HAVE 31 ACTIVE PARKS, UH, 3.66 ACRES THAT ARE UNDER ACQUISITION.
UH, 1.1 ACRES OF SCHOOL PARTNERSHIPS FOR A TOTAL OF 701 TOTAL OF PARK ACRES.
AND THAT'S 7% OF THE LA LAND AREA WITHIN UH, DISTRICT 10, UH, NO GOLF COURSE.
SIX TENS FACILITIES IN AQUATIC FACILITY.
9.2 MILES OF TRAILS THAT ARE ON THE GROUND.
TWO REC CENTERS AND A DOG PARK.
UH, THIS IS THAT EXAMPLE WHERE DISTRICT 10 DOESN'T HAVE A DOG PARK BUT IT'S NEXT TO A DISTRICT THAT DOES.
SO THAT'S WHY THAT ONE POPS UP IS YOU CAN GET TO IT FROM THE, FROM ACROSS THE STREET.
SO, SO DISTRICT 11, LET'S SEE THERE A LOT, THEIR OPEN SPACE COMES INTO ACCOUNT CUZ LIKE YOU HAVE THE TI CAMPUS, UM, KIND THOSE LARGE RESIDENTIAL ZONES, NOT KIND THAT PRESTON HOLLOW AREA, HILLCREST AND ROYAL.
UM, YOU'VE GOT THOSE LARGE RESIDENTIAL, I'M SORRY, UH, RESIDENTIAL AND RETAIL AREAS THAT ARE OVER NEAR KIND OF ADDISON IN THE BELTLINE AREA, ALL THAT COMMERCIAL USE.
[00:45:01]
KIND OF, THIS IS CALLED RESIDENTIAL AND A PRIVATE OPEN SPACE.I THINK IT'S A PRIVATE, THAT'S A PRIVATE, SO LOOKS LIKE IT'S GREEN SPACE BUT IT'S NOT ACCESSIBLE.
IT DOESN'T COUNT FOR ANY BARN STATISTICS.
SO THEIRS STATS LOOK LIKE THEY'RE AT 51% FOR A 10 MINUTE WALK.
27 ACTIVE PARKS, 7.35 ACRES THAT ARE UNDER PRO POSITION.
2.4 ACRES AT OUR SCHOOL PARTNERSHIPS FOR A TOTAL OF 330 ACRES.
UH, THEY DO NOT HAVE A GOLF COURSE.
THEY HAVE THREE 10 FACILITIES AND AQUATIC FACILITY, 11 MILES OF TRAIL OPEN FOR USE.
1.5 MILES THAT ARE IN DEVELOPMENT.
TWO REC CENTERS AND ONE DOCK PARK.
AND THEY MIGHT BE COUNTING, THAT MIGHT BE ANOTHER EXAMPLE WHERE THEY'RE ONE THAT'S I THINK IN THIS 12 CAUSE IT'S RIGHT HERE.
SO DISTRICT 12, UH, DISTRICT 12, A LOT OF THEIR UH, GAPS ARE RESIDENTIAL.
YOU HAVE LARGE, UH, SOME LARGE APARTMENT COMMUNITIES THAT TAKE UP A LOT OF SPACE IN THE LARGE, UH, SINGLE FAMILY NEIGHBORHOODS THAT WERE BUILT WITHOUT ANY PARKLANDS.
SO THAT MAKES UP QUITE A BIT OF IT.
UM, YOU GET A LITTLE AREA OVER BY UT, UH, U N T, UM, UT DALLAS, SORRY, ON CAMPUS, UM, WHERE YOU'VE GOT SOME CAMPUS USES OR SOME, UH, COLLEGE USES AND SOME NEW NEIGHBORHOODS THAT WERE BUILT THAT ARE GATED IN PRIVATE DO NOT HAVE ANY ACTIVE PARKLANDS FOR PUBLIC USE.
SO DISTRICT 12, THEY'RE AT 58% OVERALL OF 21 PARKS.
UH, 8.6 ACRES THAT ARE UNDER ACQUISITION, UH, CURRENTLY.
YEAH, I DON'T THINK THEY HAVE ANY
THAT'S UM, THAT'S, THAT'S WHAT THEIR DOG PARK IS.
SO THEY HAVE 268 ACRES, PARK ACRES OVERALL FOR 50% OF THEIR LAND AREA.
UM, THEY HAVE FOUR TENNIS CENTERS, NO GOLF COURSES, UH, NO AQUATICS, 10 MILES OF TRAILS, FIVE MILES THAT ARE IN DEVELOPMENT, TWO REC CENTERS AND THEY HAVE A TOP AND BEAVER FEET.
SO D 13 IS ONE OF OUR BIG EXAMPLES CUZ IT IS JUST A BIG HOLE WHEN YOU'RE LOOKING AT PARK ACCESS.
CUZ THIS AREA TOWN DEVELOPED, UM, YOU KNOW, 50 SIXTIES THROUGH THE EIGHTIES, YOU KNOW, AND IT'S JUST SOLID SINGLE FAMILY ALMOST.
AND YOU'VE GOT YOUR, YOU'VE GOT YOUR COMMERCIAL USES ON YOUR BIG CORNERS OF YOUR PRINCIPLE ROADWAYS.
BUT THAT'S WHY THIS IS OUR, WHEN WE TALKED ABOUT PARK GAPS, REALLY D 13 IS KIND OF THE POSTER TRIAL FOR THAT JUST DUE TO THE TYPE OF LAND USE AND THE WAY THE CITY DEVELOPED AT THE TIME.
IT WAS ALL JUST RESIDENTIAL PRIMARILY.
BUT WHEN YOU LOOK AT THEIR STATS FOR D 13, THEY HAVE 52% OR WITHIN A 10 MINUTE WALK.
UM, NOTHING THAT WAS UNDER ACQUISITION AT THE TIME.
UH, 6.8 ACRES OF SCHOOL PARTNERSHIPS.
SO 522 ACRES OVERALL AND IT'S 4% OF THEIR LANE.
EIGHT TENNIS FACILITIES, NO AQUATICS.
UH, 13 MILES OF TRAIL, 1.3 MILES THAT ARE FUNDED IN THE DEVELOPMENT.
UH, AND TWO REC CENTERS AND LAST ONE, CERTAINLY NOT LEAST D 14.
SO THIS ONE CHANGE QUITE A BIT ALSO FROM THEIR, THEIR NEW COUNCIL BOUNDARY.
SO LIKE ON THE VERY NORTH PART OF THE VILLAGE, IT'S NO LONGER PART OF D 14, SO IT'S GONNA CHANGE QUITE A BIT.
UM, A LOT OF THEIR GAPS ARE RESIDENTIAL.
I MEAN, LOOKING AT THEIR STATS, THEY'RE, THEY'RE PRETTY GOOD.
THEY DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING UNDER ACQUISITION.
SO SCHOOL PARTNERSHIPS FOR ABOVE 222 ACRES, UH, WHICH COUNTS FOR 3% OF THE LAND AREAS.
PARKLAND, NO GOLF COURSE, BUT EIGHT TENS FACILITIES AQUATICS, 12 MILES, FOUR MILES OF TRAILS, 1.7 TRAILS AND DEVELOPMENT REC CENTER AND OUR DOG PARKS A AREA HAVE ACCESS TO IS THERE TOUCHING SOME THAT ARE SOME DOWNTOWN.
THERE'S A COUPLE DOWNTOWN THAT THEY'RE, SO AS WE MOVE FORWARD TALKING ABOUT NEXT STEPS, SO WE ARE UPDATING ALL THIS INFORMATION NOW THAT WE HAVE OUR, OUR NEW WHAT DID, WHAT DID I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE SAYING.
LIKE THE ACCESS TO A DOG PARK ACROSS THE STREET WOULD COUNT POSSIBLY FOR TWO DIFFERENT DISTRICTS, BUT WOULDN'T THAT SKEW OUR NUMBER OF DOG PARKS? IF YOU'RE USING THIS INFORMATION HOLISTICALLY, LIKE YOU'RE ADDING UP EACH DISTRICT FROM THIS INFORMATION.
LIKE, LIKE I WON'T HAVE ONE IN DISTRICT SEVEN, BUT THEY HAVE ONE ACROSS THE STREET.
SO THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN DISTRICT SEVEN HAS ONE, DISTRICT NINE HAS ONE, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN WE HAVE TWO INSTEAD OF JUST ONE.
SO CUMULATIVELY IF WE ADD THESE ALL UP, THAT'S GONNA SKEW
[00:50:01]
OUR DATA TO BE INACTIVATE IT TECHNICALLY.SO WOULD IT, I MEAN, WOULD WE NOT BE BETTER OFF KEEPING IT STRICTLY TO OUR COUNCIL DISTRICTS? SO AS FAR AS AMENITIES, MAYBE NOT THE WALK.
SO YES, SO WE KIND OF WENT BACK AND FORTH ON THAT QUITE A BIT.
SO THIS FIRST ANALYSIS WAS JUST TRYING TO RECREATE THIS TRUST PUBLIC LAND IS WHAT THEY DID WAS CITYWIDE, RIGHT? AND WE'RE TO TAKE THOSE NUMBERS AND PUSH THEM INTO, PUT OUR, OUR ROUND HOLES IN SQUARE PEGS AND TAKE THAT INFORMATION AND MAKE IT LINE UP WITH OUR COUNCIL DISTRICTS.
AND THAT'S WHERE WE'RE GETTING THIS OVERLAP.
SO WE JUST WANTED TO BE PURE, THIS IS WHAT THE TRUST REPUBLIC LAND DID FOR DALLAS.
THIS IS HOW IT FLEXED DOWN TO THE COUNCIL LEVEL.
SO YEAH, WE HAVE THOSE ISSUES.
WE CAN DO IT BOTH WAYS, BUT YOU'RE GONNA GET ACCURATE INFORMATION IN DIFFERENT WAYS.
YOU KNOW, THIS IS ACCURATE BASED ON WHICH WE HAD AT THE TIME BASE OF WHAT THE TRUST DID, WHICH WHICH THEN SKEWS THESE NUMBERS.
AND IF WE'RE LOOKING AT THE NUMBER OF DOG PARKS, IT WON'T SKEW THAT, BUT IT'LL SKEW THE WALK TO A PARK.
SO LIKE THAT'S ONE, THAT'S ONE ANALYSIS OF ALL OF THIS.
THIS IS AN, THIS IS A MAPPING EXERCISE OF WHERE OUR ASSETS ARE.
WE'RE WORKING ON THAT AS WELL.
I'M GONNA BE ABLE TO MAP THE NEEDS INVENTORY.
THIS IS LOOKING AT JUST PURELY WALKABLE ACCESS AND, AND, BUT IT DOES START TO SKEW THESE NUMBERS BECAUSE IT IS A LITTLE DOUBLE COUNTING WHEN YOU READ IT HERE.
I MEAN, FROM OUR INFORMATION WE KNOW EXACTLY WHERE EVERYTHING IS.
BUT WHEN WE SEE IT, IF I SEE THAT, YOU KNOW, DISTRICT FOUR DOESN'T HAVE ANY DOG PARKS, BUT YET I HAVE LIKE JESSE OR DISTRICT THREE OR DISTRICT TWO S THREE, I'M NOT GONNA SAY, OH WE'RE NOT GONNA PRIORITIZE ANY FOR DISTRICT THREE OR TWO BECAUSE THEY ALREADY HAVE THREE.
SO WE'RE GONNA GIVE THE DISTRICTS THAT DON'T HAVE ANY A DOG PARK BEFORE WE GIVE THAT ONE A DOG PARK.
YOU KNOW, EVEN THOUGH THEY MAY HAVE HIGHER DENSITY AND THEY MIGHT HAVE A NEED FOR MORE, YOU KNOW, WE, IT'S STILL INACCURATE, YOU KNOW, THAT WE, WE JUST HAVE TO TRY TO LIKE, CUZ AS A SNAPSHOT, WE, I MEAN I GET THE 10 MINUTE WALK, BUT AS FAR AS AMENITIES, YOU KNOW, WE GOTTA KEEP, CUZ WE'RE GONNA BE PUSHING COUN.
WE EACH ARE HERE TO FIGHT COUNCIL FOR OUR COUNCILS, OUR DISTRICTS.
SO WE'VE GOTTA KNOW WHAT WE HAVE, WHAT WE DON'T HAVE AND WE HAVE THAT AND WE CAN PROVIDE THAT.
WE HAVE OUR ASSET INVENTORY AND IT'S NOT BASED, IT'S, IT'S STRICTLY WHAT IT'S IN COURT DISTRICT NOT, WHICH YOU CAN WALK TO IT IS WHAT IS LOCATED IN IN THOSE PARTS IN THOSE DISTRICTS.
AND THAT'LL BE SOMETHING WE'RE ACTIVELY UPDATING SINCE THE COUNCIL BOUNDARY JUST CHANGED.
LIKE I SAID, STUFF'S MOVING AROUND.
YEAH, WE, WE'LL GIVE YOU, WE'LL GIVE YOU THE ASSET INVENTORY WHICH IS JUST PURELY WHAT GIVES YOU A CLEAR IDEA OF WHAT'S IN YOUR DISTRICT AND NOT WHAT I CAN WALK TO OVER HERE, OVER THERE.
SO JARED, UH, IT'S POSSIBLE THAT, UM, IF, OKAY, SO FOR THIS EXERCISE OR WHAT YOU JUST WENT THROUGH, IF THERE'S A DOG PARK IN DISTRICT SEVEN AND IT'S ALSO SERVING DISTRICT NINE, IT WAS COUNTED TWICE IN OTHER WORDS IN THIS ANALYSIS.
I JUST WANT, CUZ I'M THINKING, LOOKING AT 'EM, THINKING HOW MANY, WHAT DISTRICT HAS NONE YET ONE THAT HAS NONE MIGHT BE SERVED BY, I DON'T KNOW.
I MEAN DEPENDING ON ONE WE HAVE THAT MAP WITH BILL CAUSE WE ARE WORKING ON A PRESENTATION ON DOG PARK DEVELOPMENT GUIDELINES.
SO WE HAVE ALL OF THEM MAPPED, UH, BOTH EXISTING AND I THINK THERE WAS ONE OR TWO THAT WERE IN DEVELOPMENT.
WHEN DO YOU THINK THESE ARE GONNA BE DONE? WILL THEY BE DONE BY JUNE THAT WE COULD AT LEAST LOOK AT THEM ON? YES.
NO, THIS I WILL NOT BE DONE BY JUNE.
THIS, THIS WALK ANALYSIS, WHICH I THINK IS INDEPENDENT OF THE, WHAT I'M HEARING NOW IS BECAUSE THIS IS NOT TALKING ABOUT SPECIFICALLY WHAT IS IN YOUR DISTRICT, THAT'S WHAT IS ACCESSIBLE WITHIN THAT DISTRICT.
BUT WE CAN GIVE YOU THE ASSET IN THE, WHICH IS WHAT I'M HEARING IS WHAT YOU'RE WANTING TO SEE THAT WILL LIST WHAT IS EXACTLY IN YOUR DISTRICT.
SO THAT THESE STATISTICALLY ARE YOU, YOU KNOW, YOU'RE REFERRING TO THE DOCK PARKS, BUT IS THAT ALSO REQUIRE TENANT FACILITIES ALSO, WHAT IS IT? ONE 10 MINUTE WALKIN DISTANCE? THIS MEANS IF I LIVED IN DISTRICT, IF I LIVE IN DISTRICT 10 A 14, THE THING I WORRY UP IN THE DISTRICT, YOU KNOW, I HAVE ACCESS TO EIGHT TEST FACILITIES AND AQUATIC FACILITY, 12.4 MILES OF TRAIL.
AND THIS IS BECAUSE WE'RE, WE'RE COUNTING OVERLAP.
WELL, SO, BUT I THINK THAT IS IMPORTANT.
I THINK WHAT YOU'VE PRESENTED IS VERY IMPORTANT AND THAT WE UNDERSTAND THAT, YOU KNOW, DISTRICTS CAN SERVE OTHER DISTRICTS.
I THINK THAT THAT'S REALLY IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND
[00:55:02]
IN THIS ANALYSIS.SO, AND IT COULD ALSO LOOK AT PLACEMENT, UH, DEPENDING ON WHERE CERTAIN ASSETS ARE, YOU MIGHT WANT TO MOVE CERTAIN OR PROPOSE DIFFERENT TYPES OF IMPROVEMENTS AT DIFFERENT TYPES OF PARTS BASED ON LIKE, OH WELL I SHARED THIS EASTERN BOUNDARY WITH THIS DISTRICT, WE'RE ALREADY SETTLED OVER HERE.
WELL MAYBE WE NEED TO LOOK AT THIS PARK OR WHATEVER TYPE OF AMENITY YOU'RE GOING TO DO.
SO THAT COULD HELP WITH KIND OF SPATIALLY MOVING THINGS AROUND AND MAYBE PRIORITIZING IMPROVEMENTS IN OTHER PLACE.
SO BASICALLY THE NEXT TWO SLIDE, OR THE, OR AG NEXT STEPS IS UPDATING ALL THIS INFORMATION.
SO NOW THAT WE'VE GOT THE COUNCIL DISTRICTS, WE'RE PRIORITIZING GETTING OUR ASSET LIST UPDATED.
CAUSE THAT WILL REFLECT THE NEW COUNCIL BOUNDARIES.
AND THEN WE CAN TAKE THE DATA OVER TIME.
IT IS PROBABLY GONNA BE SEVERAL MONTHS TO REDO THIS LEVEL OF GRAPHICS RATE PARK ANALYSIS, BUT WE CAN CERTAINLY GIVE YOU AN ASSET
THEN WHAT DO WE DO WITH IT? WE ARE, THIS, THIS EXERCISE IS GIVING ALL INFORMATION OF HOW MAKE OUR DECISIONS AND WHAT IS LEADING OUR DECISION MAKING AND THE DATA THAT WE'RE PUTTING INTO IT.
SO I, I KNOW THERE'S, THERE'S ISSUES WITH THEM RIGHT NOW, BUT THIS IS GIVING YOU THE IDEAS OF THIS IS WHAT OUR SCORING CRITERIA IS.
THIS IS HOW WE LOOK AT PARK ACCESS, THIS IS WHAT THAT MEANS.
UM, AND THIS IS WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE GRAPHICALLY.
SO IT'S, THIS IS JUST INFORMATION FOR Y'ALL.
JUST SEE KIND OF OUR, BEFORE WE UNDERSTAND HOW IT CAME ABOUT, WE'RE NOT YEAH, WE'RE GETTING INTO THE, THE MEAT GRIND HERE WHERE THAT PHRASE IS LIKE YOU'RE REALLY SEEING THE, THE, THE PROCESS THAT'S GOING ON WITH, WITH, WITH STAFF ON ALL THE DATA ANALYSIS.
SO LET ME ASK ANOTHER QUESTION.
DO I UNDERSTAND THAT THE, THE TECHNICAL SCORING IS DONE BY THE PARKS? YES.
BUT THE PARK BOARD, UH, CRITERIA IS OBVIOUS.
WHO DOES THE EQUITY CRITERIA? WHO'S IN? IS THAT US? THAT'S ALL THE SCORING IS BEING DONE BY STAFF.
ALL THE, ALL SCORING IS DONE BY STAFF.
SO WHEN WE GO THROUGH OUR TECHNICAL CRITERIA, THANK YOU.
SO I'M GLAD YOU BROUGHT THIS UP.
SO RIGHT NOW, AND THIS IS WHAT MEGAN'S BEEN WORKING ON NONSTOP IS, SO WE HAVE OUR NEEDS INVENTORY AND ON WE CAN FIND MY SHEET ELEMENT, THAT SCORING SHEET, EVERY ONE OF THOSE ITEMS IS A COLUMN.
AND WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO IS WE'RE TRYING TO AUTOMATE THOSE RESPONSES AND MAKE THEM BINARY.
YES, NO BEST WE CAN TO TAKE STAFF SUBJECTED INTO THIS AND NOT MAKE IT A STAFF JUDGMENT CALL.
SO ISN'T THAT THE END OF ITS SERVICE LIFE? YES.
NO, IT'S A SAFETY OR CODE ISSUE.
SOME OF EM ARE INHERENTLY SUBJECTIVE, LIKE ECONOMIC IMPACT OR IT'LL BE LIKE, YOU KNOW, THIS WATER FOUNTAIN PROBABLY IS NOT GONNA HAVE A BIG ECONOMIC IMPACT, BUT MAYBE THIS NEW PARK SITE WILL.
SO THERE'S GONNA BE SOME PLANNING JUDGMENT CALLED WITHIN THAT.
UM, AND SO LIKE I SAID, WE'RE, WE'RE AUTOMATING THAT.
SO IT'S AGAIN, LESS SUBJECTIVE.
AND THE SAME THING FOR, YOU KNOW, COMMUNITY INPUT AND PARK BOARD CITY COUNCIL.
DID WE HEAR FROM YOU? YES OR NO? 15 POINTS OR ZERO POINTS, YOU KNOW, IS IT A STAFF RECOMMENDATION? IT GETS ZERO.
IF IT'S COMING FROM OUR PARK BOARD OR COUNCIL, IT GETS 15.
SO THAT'S KIND OF THE NATURE OF HOW WE'RE SEEING THE SCORING PLAY OUT.
AND THEN FOR THE EQUITY SIDE, UH, WE ARE USING, WE HAVE ALL THAT EQUITY INFORMATION AND GIS SO WE CAN JUST EXTRACT IT ALL THAT DEMOGRAPHIC DATA AND IT KIND OF DOES THE WORK FOR US.
SO THAT'LL BE THAT SCORE, UH, FOR PARK ACCESS, UH, YOU KNOW, WE WILL USE THIS PARK ANALYSIS.
SO IF IT'S A NEW PARK AND IT'S FILLING IN A GAP, THEN IT'LL GET POINTS FOR THAT.
WE CAN PULL OUR RECORDS FOR THE LAST 15, 20 YEARS AND LOOK AT WHICH PARKS HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY 11 IN THAT TIME, AND THEN THEY GET POINTS FOR THAT.
AND ONE OF THE QUESTIONS THAT I HAVE IS, UM, AND WE DISCUSSED THIS ON THE PHONE AND, AND THAT IS, WHAT IS THE LEVEL IN WHICH IT, IT IS CONSIDERED TO BE ON, ON THE BOND? YOU KNOW, IS THAT DETERMINED BY THE PARKS DEPARTMENT? IF A PROJECT IS EVALUATED AT AN, I'M JUST MAKING THIS UP, 80%, IT'S 80 POINTS, IS WHO DETERMINES WHETHER THAT GOES ON THE BOND? AM I, I'M TRYING TO UNDERSTAND IT.
SO YEAH, BASICALLY IT'S, IT'S NOT GOING TO REALLY NECESSARILY DEPEND ON THE POINTS.
WE DON'T HAVE A POINT CUT OFF BECAUSE BASICALLY WE DON'T KNOW YET HOW MUCH THE DOLLAR VALUE WE'RE GOING TO GET IN THE BOND IS GOING TO BE.
SO IT'S REALLY MORE DEPENDENT UPON HOW MUCH FUNDING WE GET IN THE BOND RATHER THAN WHAT THE SCORE IS, IS MM-HMM.
[01:00:01]
CERTAIN, YOU KNOW, AMOUNT OF THE NEEDS INVENTORY TO YOU DOWN TO A CERTAIN SCORING POINT.I CAN'T TELL YOU WHAT THAT IS YET BECAUSE WE'RE STILL SCORING IT AND I HAVEN'T SEEN THOSE SCORES.
BUT IT WILL REALLY BE MORE DEPENDENT O UPON HOW MUCH MONEY WE GET IN THE BOND.
SO BASICALLY, YEAH, WE, WE HAVE A FEW MORE SLIDES HERE, BUT BASICALLY THE NEXT STEPS ON PARK ACCESS JARED HAD ALREADY EXPLAINED.
AND THEN IF YOU LOOK AT SLIDE 61, IT KIND OF GIVES YOU A LITTLE SNAPSHOT OF WHERE WE'RE GOING.
FOR OUR NEXT COUPLE MEETINGS, WE'RE GONNA BE COMPLETING THE SCORING FOR THE MEANS OF VICTORIA.
UM, UH, WE'RE GONNA DEVELOP THAT PRIORITIZED PROJECT LIST PER CATEGORY BASED ON SCORING.
WE NEED TO PRESENT THAT PRIORITIZED PROJECT LIST TO THE PARK BOARD FOR DISCUSSION AND EVALUATION.
THEN WE'LL BRING THAT PRIORITIZED PROJECT LIST TO THE PARK AND TRAIL SUBCOMMITTEE FOR DISCUSSION AND EVALUATION.
AND THEN ACTUALLY THE NEXT TIME WE'RE GONNA SEE YOU, WE HAVE A FIELD TRIP ON JUNE 10TH, AND THEN WE HAVE A FIELD TRIP ON JUNE 24TH.
BOTH OF THOSE FIELD TRIPS ARE FROM 9:00 AM TO 3:00 PM AND WE'LL MEET AT DALLAS CITY HALL AND BOARD THE BUS AT 9:00 AM SO WE WILL BE SENDING OUT EMAILS TO YOU TO BASICALLY TRY AND GET AN IDEA IF YOU'RE GOING TO BE ATTENDING, YOU KNOW, WHICH, WHICH FIELD TRIP, BOTH FIELD TRIPS IF YOU'LL BE ATTENDING.
CUZ WE NEED TO HAVE AN IDEA OF A HEADCOUNT SO WE KNOW HOW BIG OF A BUS TO GET, ESSENTIALLY.
GARRETT, WHEN YOU SAY PRESENT IT TO US FOR DISCUSSION, EVALUATION, YOU'RE TALKING EVALUATION THE SCORING OR JUST EVALUATION OF THE PROJECTS IN GENERAL? EVALUATION OF PROJECTS IN GENERAL.
SO WHAT'S, WHAT'S GONNA BE ON THIS FIELD TRIP? WE HAVE A CERTAIN NUMBER OF SITES THAT WE'VE ALREADY SELECTED.
SO WE'RE BASICALLY, RIGHT NOW WE'RE MAPPING THOSE OUT TO DETERMINE THE BEST WAY TO ROUTE THE BUS SO THAT WE CAN SEE THAT.
BUT WE HAVE EXAMPLES OF REC CENTERS, EXAMPLES OF ATHLETIC FIELDS, UM, VARIOUS, UH, OTHER SITES THAT WE WANT YOU TO SEE.
WE KIND OF WANT YOU TO SEE EXAMPLES OF, OF GOOD FACILITIES, EXAMPLES OF BAD FACILITIES.
SO YOU CAN GIVE AN IDEA OF WHAT TYPE OF FACILITIES ARE TYPICALLY ON A BOND PROGRAM.
SO WE'RE NOT MAKING SITE FIELD TRIPS TO LOOK AT AREAS OF NEED.
IT COULD BE AREAS OF NEED US EDUCATE EACH OTHER ON WHAT OUR DISTRICTS, THE DIFFERENT DISTRICTS NEED.
THAT'S NOT THE PURPOSE OF THIS FIELD TRIP.
THE PURPOSE IS TO BASICALLY, LIKE I SAID, SHOW YOU EXAMPLES OF PASS PASS BOND PROJECTS, THINGS THAT ARE GOOD AND WHAT WE'VE DONE, AND THEN TO SHOW YOU THINGS THAT ARE OF NEED.
SOME OF THE, SOME OF THE FACILITIES THAT ARE WOEFULLY INAD INADEQUATE AND SOME OF THE THINGS THAT ARE BEING PROPOSED FOR THE BOND PROGRAM.
SO IT'S A COMBINATION GOING TO BE THE SAME GROUP OF FACILITIES.
IT WILL NOT BE THE SAME GROUP OF FACILITIES ON THE 10TH AND THE 24TH, TWO DIFFERENT, IT'LL BE TWO, TWO DIFFERENT SETS OF FACILITIES.
AND IS THE FIELD TRUE FOR JUST US OR THE WHOLE? IT, IT IS NOT.
WE WILL BE INVITING THE MAIN COMMUNITY BOND TASK FORCE.
WE WILL BE INVITING, UH, PARK BOARD MEMBERS THAT THEY WANT TO COME AND, YOU KNOW, IT'S, IT'S ALSO POTENTIALLY OPEN TO THE PUBLIC IF, IF THEY WOULD LIKE TO TAG ALONG AS WELL.
UM, WHEN, WHEN YOU GO BACK TO PRESENTING TO THE PARK BOARD AND THEN PRESENTING TO THIS SUBCOMMITTEE, UM, WHAT HAPPENS IF THERE IS A DIFFERENCE OF OPINION BETWEEN THE PARK BOARD AND THIS SUBCOMMITTEE ABOUT WHAT SHOULD GO ON THE BOND? I GUESS I'M ASKING YOU WHO TRUMPS WHO? WELL, THAT COUNCIL TRUMPS THAT COUNCIL MEMBER TRUMPS EVERYBODY.
THE BOND TASK FORCE IS IN THERE TOO, SO, SO, UM, OKAY.
NOW I'M JUST WONDERING IF, IF YOU FLIP AND PUT, UM, NEVERMIND.
I, I CANNOT PRESENT ANYTHING TO THIS COMMITTEE THAT HAS NOT GONE TO THE PART FOUR FIRST, RIGHT.
SO YEAH, I HAVE, I HAVE TO GO TO THE PARK FIRST IS MORE LIKE TO DO AND ADVISED, BUT WE, WE HAVE NO FINAL DECISION MAKING CAPABILITY.
ANYTHING WE DECIDE CAN BE UNDONE BY THE ES FORCE OR, OR THE, UH, BUT THE BEAUTIFUL THING IS WE HAVE A LOT OF PARK BOARD FOLKS ON THIS GROUP.
DO SO WE HAVE A LOT OF, WE HAVE A LOT OF, BUT I MEAN, OUR BEST THING IS TO FORM A CONSENSUS BETWEEN US THAT WE CAN FIND, YOU KNOW, SOME PRIORITY PROJECTS FOR EVERY DISTRICT AND, YOU KNOW, WORK ON LIKE HOW WE CAN, YOU KNOW, COLLECTIVELY SEE THOSE AND THEN, YOU KNOW, TAKE THEM BACK FOR
[01:05:01]
OUR COUNCIL PERSON TO, YOU KNOW, ADVOCATE THERE.BUT WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO BOND TOGETHER TO GET THINGS.
WELL, THAT'S WHAT I THINK IS, THAT'S WHAT I WAS TRYING TO SAY IS I WANNA UNDERSTAND WHAT'S YOUR PRIORITY AND WHY, YOU KNOW, AND, AND LIKE PRIOR AND OTHER THINGS WHERE I THINK IT RAISES, AND I'VE KIND OF TOUCHED ON THIS, IS WHEN IT CAN TOUCH TWO PRIOR OR TWO DISTRICTS.
SO WHEN THERE'S, YOU KNOW, WE WANT A REC CENTER AT FERGUSON AND WHICH IS SEVEN, TWO AND NINE, SO THERE'S THREE DISTRICTS, ALL THAT TOUCH RIGHT THERE.
AND IF WE WANT A REC CENTER THERE, IT RAISES IT UP A LITTLE BIT.
AND THAT'S A PRIORITY, YOU KNOW, FOR, YOU KNOW, THAT WE HAVE ANOTHER ONE THAT, AND ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE FREEWAY THAT IS TOUCHING FIVE AND SEVEN, THAT'S ANOTHER REC CENTER THAT HAS GOT NO REC CENTERS WITHIN SEVEN MILES, BUT YET A, THE LARGEST HIGH SCHOOL IN THE CITY OF DALLAS.
AND WE CAN GET MATCH FUNDING FROM D I S D ON THAT.
SO HOW DO WE RANK THOSE AND LIKE, WHERE ARE OUR PRIORITIES? YOU KNOW, LIKE I WANT TO, YOU KNOW, LIST TWO OR THREE THINGS.
EVERYBODY HAS TWO OR THREE THINGS IN THEIR DISTRICT AND WHERE CAN WE COME TOGETHER ON THOSE AS WELL, BECAUSE THAT'S GONNA BE HELPFUL TO BRING BACK TO THE PARK BOARD.
UM, YOU KNOW, AND WE'RE ON THE, SO MANY OF US ARE ON THIS HERE MM-HMM.
SO WE DO HAVE THAT INFORMATION AND THEN, AND KNOW KIND OF WHERE THEY'RE LEANING AND, AND WHAT TYPE OF PRIORITY PROJECTS THEY HAVE IN MIND.
SO DO BIG CITYWIDE, UM, FACILITIES, SUE, YOU KNOW, THINGS LIKE THAT.
DO, ARE YOU PUTTING THEIR REQUESTS IN THE 350 400 BILLION THAT'S GONNA BE PART OF THE PARDON PROPOSITION? OR IS THERE, DOES THAT COME FROM SOMEPLACE ELSE? PARK PROPERTY? I'M, I'M NOT CERTAIN I UNDERSTAND YOUR QUESTION.
SO WE'RE GOING THROUGH ALL THE DISTRICT NEEDS HERE.
BUT THERE NEEDS FOR THI FOR THINGS THAT WILL BENEFIT ALL CITIZENS.
SO, BUT IT IS AN, UH, ANYTHING THAT'S UNDER THE PARK PURVIEW RIGHT.
IS UNDER THE PARKS PROPOSITION, EVEN IF IT'S CITYWIDE.
BUT THERE'S A CITYWIDE UMBRELLA, RIGHT.
AND THEN ALL OF THE DISTRICTS UNDERNEATH.
SO, SO DO WE GET A PRESENTATION ON THIS CITYWIDE, UM, NEEDS AS, AS A, AS THIS TASK FORCE BASICALLY THAT WOULD BE PROBABLY AT THE BIG COMMUNITY BOND TASK FORCE, MEANING THAT FOLLOWS THIS ONE.
THEY, THEY GIVE SUMMARIES OF WHAT HAVE HAPPENED AT THIS POINT.
THERE, THERE ARE FIVE OTHER SUBCOMMITTEE MEETINGS GOING ON AT THE SAME TIME.
AND THEN WE'LL DO SUMMARY AT THE PART RELATED.
ANYTHING PART RELATED SHOULD COME FROM THROUGH HERE.
I UNDERSTAND, BUT I, I BELIEVE MS. MONET IS ASKING ABOUT SOMETHING THAT'S NOT PART RELATED, IF I'M CORRECT.
NO, NO, I'M TALKING ABOUT PARK RELATE.
I MEAN, DO YOU CONSIDER THE ZOO THE ZOO FOR INSTANCE, AS A PARK RELATED? YES.
SO WELL LIKE, WELL THOSE, WHEN WE LOOK AT THE BIG FINANCIAL PICTURE OF WHAT, YOU KNOW, IF YOU'RE, IF YOU'RE ASKING 400 MILLION IN THIS COMMITTEE'S ENFORCING THAT, DID THOSE FACILITY OR THOSE ASKS COME UNDER, DO WE HEAR ABOUT THOSE DOWN? YES.
THOSE ARE PART THE LARGE, THE LARGE PARTNERSHIP MATCHES THAT WE DISCUSSED AT THE LAST MEETING.
MY MY OPINION IS NOT JUST AN INDIVIDUAL PROJECT IS SUPPORT THE OVERALL ASK AT 400 MILLION.
I MEAN, FERVENTLY WITHOUT PING, WITHOUT DOUBTING, SAYING THAT'S WHAT WE HAVE TO HAVE, RIGHT? I MEAN, WE REALLY NEED MORE.
WELL, I KNOW, BUT, BUT TO, WE NEED TO TAKE CARE OF OUR CITY AND OUR RESIDENTS.
WE'RE RECOMMENDING AS A MINIMUM.
I MEAN, YOU KNOW, WE WOULD TAKE, TAKE THE WHOLE BILLION IF THEY'LL GIVE IT TO US, IT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN.
AND, AND IF YOU LOOK BACK AT THE HISTORY OF THE BOND, THERE'S ONLY BEEN, I THINK THERE'S BEEN SEVEN BONDS SINCE 95.
AND THEN TWO BONDS AGO WE DIDN'T, THE PARKS GET NOTHING, BUT WE'VE BEEN AVERAGING ABOUT 20 TO ABOUT 15%.
SO THAT GIVES US ONLY 200 MILLION.
[01:10:01]
IF YOU THINK ABOUT THE, THE HISTORY OF BONDS FOR DOUBLE.SO, AND WE'RE ASKING FOR DOUBLES.
SO THAT'S GONNA BE A BIG, IT'S GONNA BE A BIG WIN FOR US TO GET DOUBLE.
ONE OF OUR BIGGEST THINK THAT'S OKAY, BUT ONE OF OUR BIGGEST SELLING POINTS IS DURING COVID, HOW IT WAS SO IMPORTANT TO HAVE PARKS.
AND WE JUST HAVE TO KEEP PUSHING THAT INTO OUR COUNCIL PEOPLE'S HEADS.
THAT PARKS PLAYED A MAJOR ROLE IN GETTING US THROUGH COVID COVID.
AND YOU KNOW, IF WE'RE GONNA GET THROUGH THE OBESITY, YOU KNOW, WE NEED TO KEEP PEOPLE ACTIVE.
WE NEED TO GET, YOU KNOW, PEOPLE OUT THERE ON THE MOVE.
WE HAVE, I MEAN, WE HAVE TO, THAT'S WHAT WE'RE HERE FOR.
WE'RE ADVOCATING TO OUR COUNCIL PEOPLE, YOU KNOW, THAT WE NEED THIS TO KEEP OUR PEOPLE ACTIVE.
WE NEED TO KEEP OUR SENIORS ACTIVE.
YOU KNOW, WE NEED SENIOR FACILITIES.
IT'S EMBARRASSING THAT OUR CITY HAS TECHNICALLY REAL, WE HAVE A LOT OF SENIOR PROGRAMMING, BUT WE HAVE REALLY ONE SENIOR CENTER TYPE THING IN OUR ENTIRE CITY.
AND SMALLER COMMUNITIES HAVE MULTIPLE.
SO WE REALLY NEED TO TAKE CARE OF OUR SENIORS.
UM, WE NEED TO KEEP PEOPLE ACTIVE.
SO, YOU KNOW, THAT'S WHAT WE'RE HERE TO FIGHT FOR, FIGHT FOR OUR FACILITIES.
UM, THE SOFA TRAIL WAS COMPLETED IN OCTOBER OF 19, I THINK ABOUT THREE OR FOUR MONTHS BEFORE THE WHOLE, UH, CITY OR THE WHOLE COUNTRY WAS SHUT DOWN WHEN THEY, WE WERE SHUT DOWN SO PEOPLE COULDN'T GO ANYWHERE.
SO ALL OF A SUDDEN THEY HAD, THEY WERE OUT THERE AND THE TRAILER WERE RIGHT THERE.
I MEAN, IT WAS, IT WAS, IT WAS STILL FULL.
AND IT CREATED THE MAN THAT WITH THAT, STILL TO THIS DAY, IT'S JUST, YOU KNOW, FULL.
HOW THAT PUSH THAT POINT TO YOUR, YOU KNOW, WE, WE JUST HAVE TO GET THEM TO REALIZE HOW IMPORTANT AND, YOU KNOW, THE MORE OUR PARKS ARE ACTIVE, THE LESS HOMELESS PEOPLE THAT ARE OUT THERE AT THE PARKS.
SO THE MORE WE CAN ACTIVATE OUR PARKS, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE LESS HOMELESS ISSUES, WE HAVE LESS, YOU KNOW, VIOLENCE, WE HAVE LESS, YOU KNOW, WHEN THEY CAN EXERT THEIR ENERGY OUT DOING SOMETHING VERSUS SITTING AT HOME DOING SOMETHING, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE LESS VIOLENCE AT HOME.
WE HAVE LESS, YOU KNOW, IT, IT, EVERYTHING, THE PHYSICAL ACTIVITY IS, YOU KNOW, LESS OBESITY, LESS, YOU KNOW, HEALTH ISSUES, YOU KNOW, LESSER.
I MEAN IT JUST, IT HELPS EVERYTHING.
ONE, ONE OF THE CHALLENGES WE HAVE, I I, THE LATEST LIST I GOT WAS CHANGING THE MATCHING BOND.
MATCHING BOND FUNDS IS HUNDRED 26 MILLION.
I BELIEVE THAT'S, THAT'S CORRECT.
WE HAVE FUNDERS WHO'VE BEEN SUPPORTING PARKS FOR LA AND FOR THE LAST 10 YEARS THEY'RE COMMITTING THEMSELVES TO MATCH THAT.
WE HAVE, WE GET TO COME THROUGH.
DALLAS HAS HAD MORE PARK FUNDING LAST SEVEN YEARS THAN THE WHOLE HISTORY OF DALLAS.
I MEAN, A HUGE AMOUNT OF MONEY IS GOING IN THE PARK AND IT'S, AND IT'S REALLY A CHANGE.
BUT BEFORE PARKS DIDN'T GET THAT KIND OF FUNDING.
THE MEDICAL EDUCATED, HIGHER EDUCATION, MEDICAL AND ARTS GOT THAT KIND OF FUNDING AND NOW PARKS ARE GONNA GET THAT KIND OF FUNDING, BUT THEY'RE ONLY GONNA GET THAT KIND OF FUNDING IF WE SUPPORT THAT GIVING THROUGH THIS, THIS BOND PROGRAM.
IT'S WHERE WE NEED THE 400 MILLION AND WE GOTTA MATCH ALL THE SUPPORT.
YEAH, WE WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO GO.
UM, YOU WANNA KNOW, BUT GARRETT AND I NEED TO GO AND REPORT TO THE MAIN BOND COMMITTEE IF, UH, JR.
IS THE VICE CHAIR, WOULD LIKE TO CONTINUE THE MEETING WHO YOU CAN, BUT GARRETT AND I ARE GONNA HAVE TO GO AND DO THE REPORT.
I'LL SEND THAT INFORMATION TO YOU.
