LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WELCOME TO THE PUBLIC SAFETY COMMITTEE MEETING. 
          [Public Safety on February 9, 2026.]
          [00:00:04]
TODAY IS FEBRUARY 9TH, 2026. THE TIME IS 1:04 P.M. 
          OUR FIRST ORDER OF BUSINESS IS APPROVAL OF THE JANUARY 12TH,
2026 PUBLIC SAFETY MINUTES. 
          IS THERE A MOTION FOR APPROVAL? MOTION FOR APPROVAL. SECOND. THERE'S A MOTION A SECOND. 
          ARE THERE ANY CHANGES OR CORRECTIONS? HEARING NONE. 
          ALL THOSE IN FAVOR, PLEASE SAY AYE. ANY OPPOSED? MOTION CARRIES UNANIMOUSLY. THANK YOU. WELL,
WE'VE GOT A VERY FULL AGENDA AND LOTS OF GOOD THINGS TO TALK ABOUT AND HEAR ABOUT. 
          BUT AS USUAL, OUR VERY FIRST ITEM IS THE DPD HIRING STRATEGY. 
          SO IF YOU ALL WANT TO COME ON DOWN, WE'D LOVE TO HEAR HOW WELL THINGS ARE GOING. 
          AS CHAIRMAN STEWART SAID, IT'S WONDERFUL TO BE ABLE TO SAY IT THAT WAY,
INTRODUCE IT THAT WAY. 
          AND ALSO, I BELIEVE YOU HAVE A RECORD HIGH NUMBER SINCE 2015. 
          OKAY, DPD, YOU ARE READY TO GO AND DFR WILL BE UP NEXT. 
          GOOD AFTERNOON. I'M DEPUTY CHIEF JORDAN COLUNGA OVER PERSONNEL GROUP. TO MY RIGHT,
ADMINISTRATIVE DIRECTOR APRIL IDLEBURG. 
          AND TO HER RIGHT IS MAJOR PHYLLIS NOBLES, WHO WE CAN THANK AND IS RESPONSIBLE FOR OUR
LOVELY POWERPOINT PRESENTATION TODAY. 
          NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. THIS WILL GO OVER OUR HIRING STRATEGY FOR THE YEAR LIKE WE DID
PREVIOUS MONTHS. 
          NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. SO WITH OUR TABLE OF CONTENTS WE'RE GOING TO GO OVER OUR GOALS,
OUR HIRING TIMELINE, ATTRITION AND OUR RECRUITING EVENTS. NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. 
          OH PREVIOUS SLIDE, GOT CAUGHT UP ONE TOO MANY. 
          I'LL JUST GO OVER IT. ONCE AGAIN OUR MOTTO IS 4000 STRONG. 
          CAN YOU GO BACK TO SLIDE THREE? THIS IS AN IMPORTANT SLIDE FOR FOLKS TO SEE. 
          THERE YOU GO. YES. ONCE AGAIN OUR MOTTO IS 4000 STRONG. 
          BUILDING THE SAFEST BIG CITY IN THE US AS WE MOVE TOWARDS 4000. 
          OUR GOAL OBVIOUSLY, THIS YEAR IS 350 NEW HIRES WITH SEVEN CLASSES. 
          OF COURSE, OUR NEXT CLASS IS GOING TO BE MARCH 11TH. THIS IS GOING TO BE A CLASS. 
          WE'RE GOING TO TRY TO PRETTY HIGH VOLUME IN THIS CLASS. 
          NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. SO THIS IS A TIMELINE CHART OF OUR FUTURE CLASSES. 
          THE PLAN, LIKE I SAID FOR CLASS 411, IS TO HAVE A HIGH VOLUME. 
          CLASS 415 WILL WRAP THIS UP FOR THE YEAR, AND IT'S THE VERY FINAL CLASS WE'LL HAVE THIS
FISCAL YEAR. 
          AND IT WILL START SEPTEMBER 23RD. WITH CLASS 411 CURRENTLY WE HAVE 23 THAT ARE IN THE
CLASS, 11 THAT ARE FINALIZING THE STAGES OF THE HIRING PROCESS. 
          AND WE'RE LOOKING AT 60 MINIMUM IN THIS CLASS. 
          NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. THIS IS OUR CURRENT ACADEMY ROSTER WITH CLASS NUMBERS. 
          CLASS 405 IS ALREADY OUT ON THE STREETS. THEY'RE IN THE FTO PROGRAM. 
          CLASS 406 IS OUR SENIOR CLASS AND THEY'LL GRADUATE FEBRUARY 27TH. 
          CURRENTLY THEY HAVE 43 OFFICERS THAT WE'RE GOING TO PUT INTO THE FTO PROGRAM WHEN THEY
GRADUATE. AS IT STANDS, THOUGH, IF WE GRADUATE 40, THAT AVERAGE IS FIVE PER STATION,
45, SIX PER STATION, AND 50 OFFICERS GRADUATE SEVEN PER STATION. 
          NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. SO TODAY WE PROCESSED 507 APPLICANTS. 
          THIS IS UP A LOT FROM LAST YEAR, WHICH IS 319 THE SAME TIME LAST FISCAL YEAR. 
          WITH THE ADDITIONAL 188 APPLICANTS THIS FISCAL YEAR,
WE OBVIOUSLY HAVE A HIGHER VOLUME, A HIGHER WORKLOAD FOR OUR PEOPLE. 
          RECRUITING, APPLICANT PROCESSING AND OUR BACKGROUNDS TEAM ARE WORKING VERY,
VERY HARD AND TRYING TO MAKE THIS AS EFFICIENT AND EFFECTIVE AS POSSIBLE. 
          WHEN YOU GET A HIGHER NUMBER, TRYING TO GET THAT GOAL WITH THE BEST,
MOST QUALIFIED OFFICERS VERY DIFFICULT, AND THEY'RE DOING A REAL GOOD JOB WORKING THROUGH THAT. NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. I BET YOU THIS LAST PUBLIC SAFETY MEETING. 
          SO THIS IS OUR THREE YEAR WORK EXEMPTION. AND IT CONTINUES TO BE OUR PIPELINE. 
          SO FAR WE'VE HIRED 13 NEW HIRES FROM THIS PROGRAM. 
          ONE IS SLATED FOR CLASS 411. BUT I JUST HAD TWO FILES COME ACROSS MY DESK THAT ARE
PROBABLY GOING TO BE IN CLASS 411. 
          THERE'S 192 WORK HISTORY VERIFICATIONS IN PROCESS. 
          SO AS THESE GET VERIFIED, THEY'RE UP FOR BACKGROUNDS,
THEN WE GO THROUGH. 
          SO THIS IS OUR STEADY STREAM RIGHT NOW, AND I THINK IT'S GOING TO BE A LITTLE BIT MORE
BULKIER GOING THROUGH AS WE WORK THROUGH THESE VERIFICATION PROCESSES. NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. 
          [00:05:01]
SO FOR JANUARY ATTRITION, 18 SWAN LEFT THE DEPARTMENT. 
          SIX LED ATTRITION DUE TO RETIREMENT. CURRENTLY WE DO HAVE RETENTION OUR SICK TIME BUYBACK
PROGRAM, WHICH WE JUST IMPLEMENTED. PERSONNEL CURRENTLY WE'RE WORKING ON THREE RETENTION PLANS. 
          LAST MEETING I MENTIONED THREE DIFFERENT GROUPS WITHIN THE DEPARTMENT FOR RETENTION. 
          YOU HAVE THE 0 TO 5 OR 10 YEAR GROUP, THE 10 TO 20 AND THE 20 PLUS 20,
30 PLUS YEAR OFFICERS. 
          EACH THREE THINGS ARE IMPORTANT TO THOSE THREE DIFFERENT DYNAMICS. 
          SO WE'RE WORKING ON SEPARATE RETENTION PLANS TO TRY TO HELP ALL THREE STAGES OF THAT. 
          NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. SO FOR OUR PROFESSIONAL STAFF,
57 PROFESSIONAL STAFF FILES ARE IN PROCESS. 
          WE HAVE HIRED SEVEN AND ONBOARDED SEVEN IN JANUARY. 
          WE DID HAVE A SUCCESSFUL HIRING EVENT LAST MONTH ON JANUARY 13TH FOR COMMUNICATIONS,
AND WE ARE HAVING ANOTHER HIRING EVENT FOR COMMUNICATIONS THURSDAY. 
          SO WE'RE HOPING FOR A GOOD TURNOUT AND GET MORE APPLICANTS TO BE ABLE TO FILL UP OUR
COMMUNICATIONS UNIT. 
          NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. WHICH PUTS US OUT THERE. THIS IS OUR RECRUITING BANNER POSTER THAT WE
PUT OUT ON OUR RECRUITING EVENTS. 
          WE DO HAND OUT THESE FLIERS AS WELL. IT SHOWS DPD'S QUALIFICATIONS,
OUR BENEFITS, AND THEN IT GIVES A QR CODE WHERE YOU CAN APPLY FROM YOUR PHONE RIGHT THERE. 
          WHEN YOU HAVE A BOOTH, SO SAY YOU GO TO STATE FAIR AND OUR BOOTH SET UP,
YOU'LL SEE THIS BANNER WITH HANDOUTS. 
          NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. SO WITH OUR RECRUITING ENGAGEMENTS FOR JANUARY,
RECRUITING WENT TO THREE CAREER FAIRS. 
          WE HIT UP SIX COLLEGE EVENTS, AND WE WERE VERY ACTIVE ON SOCIAL MEDIA. 
          WHEN WE DO GO TO COLLEGE EVENTS OR CAREER FAIRS,
WE'RE HAVING OUR RECRUITERS SET UP MULTIPLE LOCATIONS. 
          SO IF WE GO TO SPECIFIC COLLEGE, IF THERE'S A MILITARY BASE OR ANYTHING NEARBY,
HIT UP MULTIPLE LOCATIONS DURING EVENTS. 
          WHEN WE GO TO DIFFERENT CITIES OR COLLEGES, YOU GO TO,
YOU KNOW, SAN MARCUS HIT UP COLLEGES ALONG THE WAY TO GIVE INFORMATION SO WE CAN GET TRACTION THERE, TOO, WITH STUDENTS. WE WILL BE PUSHING TARGETED ADS SOON,
WHICH WILL BE TRACKABLE. 
          OUR GOAL IS TO MEASURE SUCCESSFUL EVENTS AND OUR MARKETING FOR,
YOU KNOW, GET OUR BEST BANG FOR OUR BUCK ON BOTH. 
          NEXT SLIDE. AND THAT CONCLUDES MY PUBLIC SAFETY PRESENTATION. 
          GREAT. COMMITTEE, DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? OKAY. 
          SO I'M GOING TO ASK YOU JUST A COUPLE. ON PAGE EIGHT FOR THE ATTRITION. 
          FIRST, DOES THAT INCLUDE THE ACADEMY ATTRITION? YES, MA'AM. IT DOES. OKAY. AND DO YOU HAVE A SENSE FOR THE ONES THAT AREN'T ACADEMY,
THEIR LENGTH OF SERVICE? FOR LENGTH OF SERVICE, I CAN PULL THAT. I DO NOT HAVE THAT DATA RIGHT NOW. WELL,
I MEAN, I'M JUST WONDERING IF THIS IS VERY SOON AFTER THEY HAVE COMPLETED FIELD TRAINING OR IF THIS IS YOU'RE CLOSE TO RETIREMENT, YOU KNOW,
KIND OF WHERE THEY FALL IN THAT SPECTRUM. 
          GOTCHA. OKAY. THANK YOU. AND THEN FOR PAGE TEN. 
          AND I JUST WANT TO SAY I LIKE THAT YOU'RE WORKING ON RETENTION PLANS THAT ARE DIFFERENT
FOR DIFFERENT LENGTHS OF SERVICE. 
          THAT'S VERY IMPORTANT. AND I LOVE THAT YOU'RE DOING THAT. 
          FOR PAGE TEN FOR THIS AD, THERE SURE IS A LOT OF WRITING ON THAT AD. 
          RIGHT. IS THAT INTENTIONAL? THIS IS FOR COMMUNICATION HIRING EVENT. 
          I MEAN, IT'S A. WHAT'S IT CALLED, A CONVERSION AD WHERE YOU CLICK ON AND YOU CAN APPLY
RIGHT THERE. 
          SO IT DOES NEED TO HAVE SALARY. BUT WE CAN WORK WITH THAT TO GET A LITTLE BIT MORE MAYBE. 
          I THINK LAST AD WE HAD WAS ACTUALLY MORE VERBIAGE. 
          SO IT'S A LITTLE BIT CUT DOWN FROM THAT. WELL I WONDER IF SOME OF THE WITH THE ADVERTISING
FIRM YOU'RE WORKING WITH, A MARKETING FIRM MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO HELP. MAYBE PULL SOME OF THAT OFF AND INSTEAD MAKE
IT MORE OF A TEASE. 
          LIKE, WANT TO KNOW THE QUALIFICATIONS? CLICK HERE. 
          OR, YOU KNOW, I'M SAYING INSTEAD OF LISTING. SO THIS IS MORE ABOUT OUR BOOTHS. 
          SO WHEN YOU COME UP, HERE'S A LIST OF ALL EVERYTHING WE OFFER,
EVERYTHING WE'RE RECRUITING. 
          WITH OUR ACTUAL MARKETING ADS, IT'S A MORE PHOTO ESQUE. 
          AND THEN MAYBE A ONE LINE OR A CERTAIN LINE TO ATTRACT YOU TO COME APPLY. 
          SO OUR ADS DON'T HAVE ALL. THIS ISN'T JUST OUR MAIN AD. 
          THIS IS MORE WHEN YOU COME UP TO OUR BOOTH, YOU GET TO SEE EVERYTHING THAT DALLAS IS
OFFERING, WHAT THE PAY IS, AND THEN YOU CAN ALSO APPLY AT THE BOOTH. 
          WITH OUR ADS, WHEN WE'RE PUSHING OUT TO SOCIAL MEDIA,
IT IS MORE WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT WITH THE APPEAL. 
          OKAY. AND THEN THE OTHER QUESTION I HAVE FOR YOU IS ON THE SOCIAL MEDIA POSTS,
HAVING 21 IN THE LAST MONTH I WOULD WONDER IF THAT COULDN'T BE SCHEDULED SO THAT THERE'S AT LEAST ONE A DAY. YOU KNOW, THERE'S DIFFERENT GUIDELINES GENERALLY THAT
MARKETERS USE FOR DIFFERENT PLATFORMS, BUT I THINK ALL OF THEM ARE RECOMMENDING AT LEAST ONCE A DAY. 
          YES, MA'AM. SO IF THAT WAS POSSIBLE. JUST TO PIGGYBACK OFF THAT,
WE HAVE THAT TARGET MARKETING. 
          I MENTIONED AT THE VERY LAST SLIDE. THAT IS A GROUP THAT WILL MEASURE LIKE THE BEST TIMES
TO PUT OUT ALSO AND MORE FREQUENCY. 
          [00:10:05]
LIKE I SAID, BEST BANG FOR THE BUCK. WE'RE STILL WORKING THROUGH THAT PROCESS,
BUT THAT SHOULD BE COMING. OKAY. 
          SO I'VE ALREADY ASKED FOUR QUESTIONS. DID YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? NO. ANYBODY ELSE? OKAY. WELL, GREAT. GREAT JOB. 
          KEEP GOING. YES, MA'AM. I CAN'T WAIT TILL WE SAY THIS IS THE MOST WE'VE EVER,
EVER HAD. 
          BUT RIGHT NOW, THIS IS THE MOST SINCE 2015 OF SWORN OFFICERS. 
          SO EXCELLENT JOB. AND NOW, DFR. OUR LONG AWAITED PRESENTATION. 
          GOOD MORNING. I AM DELRIDGE WILLIAMS, ASSISTANT CHIEF THAT OVERSEES OUR TRAINING AND
RECRUITING. 
          AND TO MY LEFT, I HAVE DEPUTY CHIEF STEPHAN LOPEZ WHO OVERSEES THIS. 
          HE'S GOING TO GIVE THE PRESENTATION. BUT BEFORE HE DID,
I'D LIKE TO MAKE THE ANNOUNCEMENT THAT WE ARE FULLY STAFFED. 
          SO WE HAVE ADJUSTED OUR HIRING PLAN TO ACCOUNT FOR THAT,
WHERE WE MEET MONTHLY TO DETERMINE WHAT WE'RE GOING TO HIRE BASED ON OUR ATTRITION. SO NOW WE'RE IN THAT HIRING TO ATTRITION MODE INSTEAD OF OUR CATCH UP
MODE. 
          AND WITH THAT, I'LL PASS IT TO CHIEF LOPEZ. GOOD AFTERNOON. 
          COMMITTEE. THIS IS DFR'S RECRUITING AND RETENTION UPDATE FOR THE FIRST QUARTER OF FISCAL
YEAR 25-26. 
          THAT'S OCTOBER 1ST, 2025 TO DECEMBER 31ST, 2025. 
          OUR TABLE OF CONTENTS SHOWS THIS IS BASICALLY JUST A SUMMARY OF THE TOPICS THAT WE'LL
COVER TODAY. 
          THE MOST IMPORTANT TOPICS WILL BE THE FIRST QUARTER ATTRITION AND HIRING. 
          THE FIRST QUARTER ATTRITION, REASON BREAKDOWN,
AND UNIFORM HIRING DATA. 
          SLIDE THREE PLEASE. JUST AS A REMINDER, SLIDE THREE SHOWS OUR FIRE RESCUE OFFICER TRAINING
APPLICATION PROCESS. 
          WE OPENED UP THE APPLICATION PROCESS ON DECEMBER 29TH DURING THAT FIRST QUARTER AND IT WAS
ONLY OPEN FOR BASICALLY TWO DAYS OF THAT FISCAL QUARTER. WE HAD 89 APPLICANTS, AND 52 OF THOSE WERE REFERRED BY CIVIL SERVICE. 
          AND OUR APPLICANT VETTING PROCESS BECOMES THEY GET A BACKGROUND PACKET,
A SITUATIONAL JUDGMENT TEST, PERSONALITY INVENTORY, PHYSICAL EXAMS AND THEN THEIR DEPARTMENTAL INTERVIEW JUST AS A
REFRESHER. 
          SLIDE FOUR PLEASE. SLIDE FOUR DEMONSTRATES OUR ATTRITION AND HIRING DATA FOR THE FIRST
QUARTER. 
          AS YOU CAN SEE, OUR ATTRITION RATE WAS ONLY 14 MEMBERS WHILE OUR HIRING WAS,
WE HIRED 22 MEMBERS IN OCTOBER WITH CLASS 392 AND AS ALSO AS A REMINDER OF FISCAL YEAR 24-25, WE MET OUR HIRING GOAL OF 195 MEMBERS,
AND OUR ATTRITION RATE WAS ONLY 110 MEMBERS TOTAL FOR ALL OF FISCAL YEAR 24=25. CURRENTLY,
AS CHIEF WAS SAYING, WE'RE ADJUSTING OUR HIRING PLAN FOR THIS FISCAL YEAR TO ENSURE THAT WE ARE HITTING OUR TARGET AND ALL OF OUR MEASURABLE GOALS FOR THIS FISCAL
YEAR. 
          SLIDE FIVE, PLEASE. SLIDE FIVE IS A GRAPH THAT DEMONSTRATES OUR HIRING VERSUS OUR
ATTRITION. 
          CURRENTLY, OUR HIRING IS OUTPACING OUR ATTRITION RATE. 
          AS YOU CAN SEE, THE LARGE ORANGE PERCENTAGE OF THAT CIRCLE OF 22 MEMBERS VERSUS THE 14
MEMBERS THAT WE HAVE AS PART OF OUR ATTRITION. AND WITH THAT, THE TWO LARGEST CATEGORIES BEING FAILURE OF FIELD
TRAINING AND RESIGNATION FOR PERSONAL REASONS. 
          AND THERE WAS ONLY FIVE AND FOUR OF THOSE MEMBERS,
RESPECTIVELY. 
          SLIDE SIX PLEASE. SLIDE SIX IS OUR TABULAR DATA THAT DEMONSTRATES HOW OUR CURRENT
APPLICANTS ARE PROGRESSING THROUGH THE APPLICATION PROCESS. 
          AGAIN, WE ONLY HAD 89 APPLICANTS IN THOSE TWO DAYS OF THE FISCAL QUARTER. 
          52 OF THOSE WERE REFERRED BY CIVIL SERVICE. WE CURRENTLY HAVE 509 APPLICANTS STILL IN THE
PROCESS. 
          AND THAT IS BACK FROM TH25 PROCESS AND WE'VE ONBOARDED 22 OF THOSE MEMBERS BACK IN
OCTOBER. 
          SLIDE SEVEN PLEASE. SLIDE SEVEN DEMONSTRATES AND SHOWS THE MOTIVATION FOR OUR APPLICANTS
CHOOSING DFR. 
          DESIRE TO SERVE CONTINUES TO BE OUR GREATEST MOTIVATING FACTOR FOR OUR APPLICANTS,
WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT WE WANT TO SEE WITHIN THE DEPARTMENT. 
          SLIDE EIGHT, PLEASE. SLIDE EIGHT TALKS ABOUT HOW OUR APPLICANTS ARE HEARING ABOUT DFR. 
          WORD OF MOUTH AND OUR CITY OF DALLAS WEBSITE ARE OUR TWO LARGEST PERCENTAGES. 
          NOW, THAT DATA MAY DRASTICALLY CHANGE JUST BECAUSE THE SAMPLE SET IS SO SMALL. 
          SO IN THE NEXT VERSIONS OF THIS REPORT OUT, WE MAY SEE THAT KIND OF THAT SCALE CHANGE
QUITE A BIT. 
          [00:15:05]
SLIDE NINE PLEASE. SLIDE NINE DEMONSTRATES ALL OF OUR FIRST QUARTER RECRUITING ACTIVITIES. 
          AGAIN, THAT WAS ONLY FROM OCTOBER 1ST THROUGH DECEMBER 31ST. 
          AND WE HAD 15 CAREER ACTIVITIES, CAREER EVENTS FOCUSING ON PREDOMINANTLY IN OUR DFW
METROPLEX AREA. 
          AND SLIDE TEN, PLEASE. AND AS YOU CAN SEE, OUR RETENTION INITIATIVES AND ENHANCED
RECRUITING ACTIVITIES TO PRODUCE MEASURABLE RESULTS THAT MEANT THAT WE ARE HITTING ALL OF OUR HIRING METRICS. 
          THAT CONCLUDES OUR PRESENTATION. THANK YOU. ANY QUESTIONS? GREAT JOB. WHO HAS ANY QUESTIONS? I'LL START WITH YOU,
COUNCIL MEMBER ROTH. 
          JUST A QUICK QUESTION. IN YOUR SLIDE ABOUT UNIFORM HIRING DATA,
I THINK IT'S PAGE SIX. 
          WHEN IT SAYS SINGLE FUNCTION, COULD YOU EXPLAIN TO ME WHAT THAT'S ABOUT? WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? SO OUR SINGLE FUNCTION,
THOSE ARE SINGLE FUNCTION PARAMEDICS. 
          THOSE ARE THE APPLICANTS THAT WILL BE RIDING OUR AMBULANCES FULL TIME ONLY DURING
DESIGNATED TIMES THROUGHOUT THE DAY. 
          I BELIEVE WE WERE SLATED FOR TEN IN THIS CURRENT FISCAL YEAR TO HIRE TEN. 
          AND THAT WILL HAPPEN LATER ON. AND WHAT DOES CVS STAND FOR? CIVIL SERVICE. WHAT IS IT? CIVIL SERVICE. OKAY. 
          YES, SIR. AND SO YOU HIRED 40 PEOPLE IN THE EMS DEPARTMENT. 
          IS THAT WHAT THAT SAYS? WE HAD 40. 40 APPLICANTS. 
          AND THAT WERE REFERRED TO US BY CIVIL SERVICE. YOU'LL PROBABLY HIRE OUT OF THAT. WE WILL
HIRE APPROXIMATELY TEN. 
          OKAY, GREAT. THANK YOU. YES, SIR. APPRECIATE IT. 
          GREAT. COUNCIL MEMBER MORENO. CHAIR. I'M SORRY. WAIT. 
          MAYOR PRO TEM MORENO. THANK YOU, CHAIR. THANK YOU GUYS FOR THAT PRESENTATION. 
          CAN YOU REMIND ME ON PAGE THREE HOW MANY APPLICATIONS WERE SUBMITTED IN THE TWO DAY
PERIOD? I BELIEVE IT WAS 89 APPLICANTS. 
          89. OKAY. AND SO WHAT'S HAPPENING TO THOSE THAT DID NOT GET REFERRED? ARE WE PLACING THEM IN ANOTHER CITY DEPARTMENT? ARE WE REFERRING THOSE TO ANOTHER DEPARTMENT WITHIN THE CITY OF DALLAS? OKAY. SO THE WAY IT WORKS IS WHEN SOMEONE SUBMITS AN APPLICATION THEN THERE'S AN INITIAL
SCREENING BY CIVIL SERVICE. 
          SO WHEN WE USE THE TERM REFERRED, THOSE ARE THOSE THAT MET THE INITIAL CIVIL SERVICE
SCREENING. 
          SO THOSE THAT ARE NOT REFERRED, EITHER THEY DIDN'T MEET THE QUALIFICATIONS OR THEY DIDN'T
COMPLETE A PROCESS OR THEY DIDN'T PASS THE CIVIL SERVICE EXAM. 
          SO WE DON'T HAVE VISIBILITY ON THOSE. WE ONLY HAVE THOSE THAT MEET ALL THE QUALIFICATIONS. 
          OKAY. SO I JUST MAY BE ABLE TO SUGGEST THAT WE WORK WITH HR TO PLACE THOSE OTHER
APPLICANTS THAT MAYBE DIDN'T HAVE THE REQUIREMENTS READY OR DIDN'T HAVE, YOU KNOW,
CHECK EVERYTHING OFF THAT WE ARE TRYING TO PLACE THEM SOMEWHERE ELSE WITHIN THE CITY. 
          AND SO WHEN WE'RE TALKING ABOUT ATTRITION, DO WE HAVE A FORECAST OF RETIREMENT AGE? THAT WAY WE KNOW, YOU KNOW, IN TWO YEARS WE'RE GOING TO. 
          YOU KNOW, WE MIGHT NOT NEED FIREFIGHTERS TODAY,
BUT WE KNOW THAT IN A YEAR OR TWO YEARS WE'RE GOING TO SEE A SUBSTANTIAL NUMBER OF RETIREES. AND SO HOW ARE WE PLANNING TO MATCH THOSE UP? I'LL ADDRESS THAT. GOOD AFTERNOON EVERYONE. JUSTIN BALL,
FIRE CHIEF. 
          YEAH, WE DO. BUT, YOU KNOW, WE HAVE TO PROJECT FOR ABOUT 14 MONTHS IN ADVANCE BECAUSE
THAT'S HOW LONG THE SCHOOL IS. 
          SO IT'S SORT OF DIFFICULT. THE QUARTER WE'RE TALKING ABOUT WITH THE 14,
WE PROJECTED 36. 
          SO THERE'S THE POSSIBILITY. SO THE AMOUNT OF FOLKS THAT ARE ELIGIBLE IS. 
          I MEAN, THAT'S A REASONABLE AGE WOULD BE ABOUT 300. 
          WE CAN'T POSSIBLY HIRE FOR THAT. BUT, YOU KNOW,
WE'RE FULL AND WE'RE IN AS GOOD A POSITION AS WE POSSIBLY CAN BE IN. WE'VE GONE THROUGH A PERIOD OF TRAINING A LOT OF PEOPLE,
WHICH MEANT A LOT OF PEOPLE IN THE ACADEMY, LIKE AT ANY GIVEN TIME, ABOUT 200. WELL, WE'RE SWITCHING TO MOST OUR NUMBERS BEING IN THE
FIELD, WHICH HELPS US A LOT. WE'VE GONE TO WHERE WE MEET EACH QUARTER AND INSTEAD OF JUST HAVING
A DEFINED, THIS IS WHAT WE'RE HIRING, WE HAVE TO MAKE A DECISION EACH QUARTER BECAUSE,
YOU KNOW, IT'S VERY DIFFICULT TO PREDICT. 
          [00:20:05]
WE'D HAVE BEEN OFF. SO EVERY QUARTER WE'RE GOING TO MEET,
WE'RE GOING TO DISCUSS THE NUMBERS AND DECIDE HOW BIG THIS CLASS IS GOING TO BE. 
          GREAT. THANK YOU. WHO ELSE HAS QUESTIONS? WELL,
I'LL JUST SAY YOU HAVE A LOT TO BE PROUD OF. 
          YOU KNOW, WE STOPPED DOING YOUR REPORT EVERY MONTH BECAUSE YOU WERE FULLY STAFFED. 
          SO THANK YOU, IT'S YOUR FIRST QUARTERLY ONE. I WILL SAY,
LIKE MAYOR PRO TEM, I WOULD WONDER, GIVEN THE REASONS THAT APPLICANTS ARE APPLYING TO SERVE SALARY BENEFITS,
GUESS WHAT? YOU GOT YOUR FRIENDS RIGHT OVER THERE WHO THEY CAN ALSO SERVE WITH AND HAVE THE SAME EXACT
SALARY AND BENEFITS. 
          SO OTHER THAN SCHEDULE WHICH BOTH OF YOU HAVE KIND OF TERRIBLE SCHEDULES. 
          IT MAY BE THAT FOLKS THAT ARE PRETTY FAR DOWN ON YOUR LIST WOULD WANT TO GO AHEAD AND
PURSUE A DIFFERENT OPPORTUNITY THERE. 
          SO WE'LL TALK WITH HR ABOUT IF THERE COULD BE A NOTICE SAYING,
HEY, YOU'RE ON THE LIST FOR DFR, BUT HAVE YOU CONSIDERED DPD? SO YOU GUYS HAVE LOTS OF JOKES BETWEEN YOU ABOUT THIS KIND OF
SCENARIO. 
          BUT IN THIS CASE, YOU DO HAVE SOME APPLICANTS THAT MIGHT NOT. 
          I'LL SAY ONE OF THE THINGS THAT REALLY STRUCK ME ABOUT THIS PRESENTATION,
JUST LOOKING AT THIS OVER THE COURSE OF MANY YEARS IS SLIDE FIVE. 
          AND REALLY HOW FEW FAILURES YOU'VE HAD OUT OF ACADEMY. 
          THERE WAS A TIME WHERE THERE WERE A LOT OF PEOPLE NOT MAKING IT AND HAVING TO DO LOTS OF
REPEATS. 
          AND SO I JUST AM TAKING IT THAT THE ACADEMY STAFF HAS FIGURED IT OUT,
THAT THE RECRUITING STAFF IS PICKING THE RIGHT PEOPLE, BUT THIS IS ALSO A HUGE COST SAVINGS TO NOT HAVE THAT KIND OF TURNOVER. 
          AND SO I JUST WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE WHAT A HUGE DIFFERENCE THAT IS. 
          SO, MISS MENDELSOHN, PUT IN INITIATIONS LIKE WE HAVE TUTORING CLASSES AND WE PUT THAT IN, YOU KNOW, WE WERE TASKED ABOUT A YEAR AGO TO,
YOU KNOW, TRY AND SALVAGE THE ATTRITION A BIT. AND SO WE PUT INITIATIVES IN \ THAT MADE A BIG DIFFERENCE. 
          AND PART OF THAT IS THE WAY WE DO THE ACADEMY CLASS,
GIVING THEM TIME TO STUDY FOR THE NATIONAL REGISTRY WHEN THEY WERE JUST, YOU KNOW, WAITING AROUND MOPPING FLOORS. 
          NOW WE'RE HAVING THEM STUDY FOR IT AND GET TUTORING. 
          AND SO THE RESULT IS THAT IT'S A HIGHER PASS RATE. 
          WELL, AGAIN, CONGRATULATIONS ON BEING FULLY STAFFED. 
          I WILL SAY FOR BOTH DEPARTMENTS, THERE'S THINGS THAT YOU CAN OFFER AN APPLICANT THAT
NOBODY ELSE CAN. 
          RIGHT? NOBODY HAS A SWIFT WATER LIKE DFR. NOBODY IS DOING LOTS OF THE SPECIALTY UNITS THAT
DPD DOES. 
          AND SO THERE'S SOMETHING SPECIAL HERE THAT I THINK WE CAN SEE PEOPLE WANT TO BE PART OF. 
          AND BOTH OF Y'ALL ARE DOING A GREAT JOB WITH RECRUITING. THANK YOU. 
          OKAY. MOVING ON TO ITEM C, WHICH IS OUR VIOLENT CRIME REDUCTION PLAN. 
          ALSO MORE GOOD NEWS. 
          GOOD AFTERNOON, COMMITTEE. HOW ARE YOU? I'M MAJOR ANDRE TAYLOR AND I WILL BE PRESENTING
THE VIOLENT CRIME UPDATE. 
          TO MY LEFT IS DEPUTY CHIEF ERIC ROMAN. SO TO START, I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU A SHORT SUMMARY OF VIOLENT CRIME FOR THE MONTH OF JANUARY. 
          WE'LL COVER THE RESULTS OF IMPACTS VIOLENT CRIME. 
          I'LL DISCUSS THE INCIDENT TREND LINE AND THE VICTIM TREND LINE. 
          AND THEN I'LL GIVE YOU AN UPDATE ON THE VIOLENT CRIME DIVISION FOCUS DETERRENCE PLAN. 
          NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. OVERALL VIOLENT CRIME IS DOWN. 
          YEAR TO DATE 13.25% IN DALLAS. THERE ARE THREE FACTORS THAT WE WANT TO CONTRIBUTE TO THAT
DECREASE FOR THE MONTH OF JANUARY. 
          THAT'S AGGRAVATED ASSAULTS, WHICH ARE DOWN 5.95%,
HOMICIDES THAT ARE DOWN 18.8% AND OPERATION SAFE 
          [00:25:01]
STREETS, WHICH IS A CONTINUOUS, ONGOING OPERATION,
HAD 288 ARRESTS THROUGH THE MONTH OF JANUARY. 
          NEXT SLIDE PLEASE. THE NIBRS CRIMES AS THEY'RE REFERRED TO SO THAT WE CAN TRACK THEM. MURDER IS DOWN 18.8%. 
          TOTAL ROBBERIES ARE DOWN 28.49%. TOTAL AGGRAVATED ASSAULTS ARE DOWN 5.95%. 
          NEXT SLIDE. FOR THESE VIOLENT CRIMES, THE NUMBER OF VICTIMS FOR JANUARY ARE TWO FEWER
VICTIMS, FOR MURDER. WE HAVE 49 FEWER VICTIMS FOR ROBBERIES. 
          AND WE HAD 22 FEWER VICTIMS FOR AGGRAVATED ASSAULTS. 
          WE DID HAVE AN INCREASE OF FOUR VICTIMS FOR FAMILY VIOLENCE,
AGGRAVATED ASSAULTS. 
          BUT THESE ARE ASSAULTS THAT OCCUR BECAUSE TWO PEOPLE KNOW EACH OTHER. 
          WE ALSO HAVE BEEN WORKING ON A PLAN FOR THAT WHICH HAS INCLUDED THE NPO'S GOING INTO
CHANNEL 6, WHERE WE IDENTIFIED A LOT OF THOSE FAMILY VIOLENCE OCCURRING AND HAVING THE NPO'S TO GO
OUT AND TALK WITH FOLKS. 
          SO WE ARE ADDRESSING IT. THE NEXT SLIDE, PLEASE. 
          SO THE INCIDENT TREND LINE SIMPLY SHOWS THAT WE HAVE LESS VICTIMS OR LESS INCIDENTS OF
VIOLENT CRIME THAN WE DID LAST JANUARY. 
          LAST JANUARY, WE HAD 476 INCIDENTS OF VIOLENT CRIME. 
          THIS JANUARY, 409. NEXT SLIDE. AND THIS JUST SHOWS THAT WE HAVE LESS VICTIMS OF THOSE SAME
VIOLENT CRIMES. 
          JANUARY 2025, WE HAD 553 VICTIMS AND THIS YEAR WE HAVE 480 VICTIMS. NEXT SLIDE. AND SO FOCUSED DETERRENCE IS IN THE SIXTH SESSION. 
          CURRENTLY WE HAVE 80 ACTIVE CLIENTS IN FOCUS DETERRENTS. 
          SO THAT'S UP TO TEN ADDITIONAL PEOPLE. LAST MONTH WE DISCUSSED HAVING A MORE DYNAMIC
IMPACT RELATED ENGAGEMENT WITH FOCUS DETERRENTS. AND SO WE INITIATED THAT WITH THE GANG UNIT. 
          AND SO WE HAD 68 MEMBERS CONTACTED THAT WERE DOCUMENTED GANG MEMBERS AND SIX OF THOSE 68
MEMBERS, AT LEAST THREE WERE ON OUR LIST AS REPEAT OFFENDERS THAT WERE EITHER ALREADY INCARCERATED
OR WERE ALREADY BEING TRACKED BY OUR CRTS WHO HAVE BEEN WORKING THE FIVE ABS IN OUR DIVISIONS. WE HAVE OUR NEXT FOCUS DETERRENCE EVENT ON FEBRUARY 21ST, AND THE NEXT UPDATES FOR THE PMI LOCATIONS WE'RE DROPPING ONE LOCATION,
4722 MEADOW WAS PHASED OUT ON JANUARY 21ST AND WE ADDED A NEW LOCATION DOWN SOUTH AT 5969 HIGHLAND VILLAGE FOR OUR UPCOMING AREA SO THAT WE CAN START TREATMENT. AND THAT IS ALL I HAVE FOR THE VIOLENT CRIME UPDATE. 
          THANK YOU. WHO'S GOT QUESTIONS ABOUT OUR VIOLENT CRIME PLAN? CHAIRMAN STEWART. THANK YOU, CHAIR. JUST A COUPLE OF THINGS. 
          I JUST WANT TO NOTE THAT THE FAMILY VIOLENCE IN DISTRICT 10 HAS TRENDED UP. 
          I THINK BY END OF YEAR 25, WE WERE ACTUALLY DOWN. 
          BUT WE'RE SPIKING UP AGAIN. I THINK WE'VE HAD A 40% INCREASE. 
          AND I KNOW WE'RE TALKING 4 OR 5 WEEKS HERE, SO I'M NOT BEING OVERLY CRITICAL. 
          I JUST KIND OF WANT TO PUT IT ON YOUR RADAR THAT FOR SOME REASON,
FAMILY VIOLENCE SEEMS TO BE THE CATEGORY THAT DISTRICT 10 HAS STRUGGLED WITH. 
          WE'VE SEEN DECREASES IN AGGRAVATED ASSAULTS THAT ARE NOT FAMILY VIOLENCE AND MURDERS AND
SO MUCH OF OUR VIOLENT CRIME HAS COME DOWN AND IT'S BEEN SUCH A BLESSING TO OUR DISTRICT. AND I KNOW THE FAMILY VIOLENCE ONE IS REALLY HARD. 
          AND MAYBE WE GET WITH THE NPO'S FROM NORTHEAST AND SEE WHAT THEY CAN DO. 
          BUT ANYWAY, IT'S JUST A CONCERN. I JUST KEEP SEEING IT OUT THERE,
AND I JUST THOUGHT IT WAS WORTH NOTING THAT IT IS I THINK A CHALLENGE. 
          AND THEN I HAVE A QUESTION ON WHAT YOU WERE JUST SAYING ABOUT FOCUS DETERRENCE AND 68 GANG
MEMBERS. 
          WAS THERE, AND MAYBE I MISSED THIS. DID SOME OF THEM RESPOND OR PARTICIPATE IN THE FOCUS
DETERRENCE? NO, THIS WAS JUST THE INITIAL CONTACT WITH THEM. 
          INITIAL CONTACT. OKAY. ONCE WE IDENTIFIED THAT THEY WERE ALREADY IN JAIL,
OF THE 68 THAT WERE GANG MEMBERS, NOW THEY WILL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO VOLUNTEER TO ENTER THE PROGRAM. 
          OKAY, SO WE'VE BROADENED OUR SCOPE THERE. YES,
THESE INDIVIDUALS ARE A LITTLE YOUNGER, SO THE IMPACT SHOULD BE A LITTLE MORE 
          [00:30:07]
IN THE RANGE OF INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE COMMITTING VIOLENT CRIMES. 
          RIGHT. WOULD THERE BE ANY OPPORTUNITIES THERE FOR SOME TYPE OF MENTORING SINCE THEY ARE
YOUNGER? JUST TO MAYBE START LOOKING AT THE WORLD JUST A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENTLY THAN THEY HAVE BEEN
FOR THEIR EARLY YEARS? YES. SO THAT'S WHAT THE PROGRAM IS SET UP FOR. 
          SO IF THEY'RE WILLING, THEY CAN TAKE OPPORTUNITY WITH THESE RESOURCES THAT WE HAVE FOR
THEM. 
          YES. RIGHT. I KNOW WE OFFER RESOURCES, BUT I JUST DIDN'T KNOW IF WE HAD ACTUALLY FOCUSED
ON THAT MENTORING SIDE SINCE WE'VE GOT SUCH A YOUNG GROUP. WELL, AGAIN, THIS IS LIKE MY FAVORITE PART OF THE VIOLENT CRIME PLAN IS THE FOCUS DETERRENCE. 
          WHEN I TALK TO PEOPLE ABOUT IT IN MY DISTRICT,
THEY ARE BLOWN AWAY THAT THIS IS PART OF THE PLAN, WHICH IS TO REACH OUT TO THE VIOLENT OFFENDERS AND SAY,
WHAT CAN WE DO? WHAT RESOURCES CAN WE BRING YOU? IT'S COUNTERINTUITIVE FOR SOME PEOPLE,
BUT IT IS MAKING A DIFFERENCE. 
          AND SO I APPLAUD YOU AGAIN ON YOUR WORK THERE. 
          THANK YOU. THANK YOU, CHAIR. EXCELLENT. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? CHAIRMAN JOHNSON. THANK YOU, CHAIR MENDELSOHN. 
          THANK YOU FOR THIS PRESENTATION. TWO QUESTIONS. 
          DO WE HAVE THE NUMBER? BECAUSE I WAS FOLLOWING THE POWERPOINT PRESENTATION,
AND I DIDN'T SEE IT WHEN I WAS STUDYING EARLIER THIS WEEK. 
          DO WE ALSO HAVE THE NUMBERS FOR THE YOUTH VIOLENCE THAT HAPPENS IN THE CITY,
OR PARTICULARLY IN DISTRICT 4, BUT IN OUR CITY? THE YOUTH VIOLENCE, IS THAT IN THIS NUMBER AS WELL? THE YOUTH VIOLENCE? LIKE YOUNG PEOPLE, THE VIOLENCE THAT WAS WITH YOUNG PEOPLE. I DON'T
THINK WE TRACK IT SEPARATELY. 
          OKAY. Y'ALL DON'T TRACK IT SEPARATELY. OKAY. THAT'S WHAT I WAS ASKING. OF COURSE. AND THE
SECOND THING IS THE CVI PROGRAMS. I THINK IT WAS WITH THE MAYOR'S TASK FORCE BEFORE. 
          I KNOW THAT WAS SOMETHING BIG. DO WE STILL HAVE THE FUNDING FOR THAT? OR WHAT'S GOING ON WITH THOSE? I THINK IT'S WHAT THE CRIME,
VIOLENCE INTERVENTION NOW, I THINK IT WAS INTERRUPTED. 
          ARE WE STILL DOING THAT? IF WE ARE, HOW ARE WE USING THAT PARTICULAR GROU? SO THAT PARTICULAR GROUP IS OUTSIDE THE SCOPE OF OUR FOCUS DETERRENCE. 
          SO OUR FOCUS DETERRENCE IS WORKING WITH OUR COMMUNITY GROUPS THAT ARE ALREADY BASED WITH
THE CITY OF DALLAS. 
          AND SO THEY'RE DOING THE SAME THING. WE'VE HAD SOME CONVERSATIONS AND SOME INTERACTIONS
WITH THE CVI GROUPS. 
          IT'S BEEN A LITTLE DIFFICULT GETTING THEM TO THE TABLE AND TO EXPAND THE RESOURCES THAT
THEY HAVE AND GIVE THOSE RESOURCES TO THE INDIVIDUALS THAT NEED IT. 
          SO WE HAVE REACHED OUT TO THEM. WE DO DISCUSS THINGS WITH THEM. 
          IT'S NOT BEEN EASY. OKAY. I WOULD LIKE TO TALK TO Y'ALL FOR A RECORD ABOUT THE CVI
PROGRAMS BECAUSE THEY WAS VERY HELPFUL IN MY OPINION. AND LOOKING AT THE THINGS THAT THEY WERE DOING IN OUR COMMUNITY WAS IT WAS
GETTING STUFF DONE, BOOTS ON THE GROUND. SO I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THAT PROGRAM DEFINITELY COME BACK. AND THEN
AGAIN, JUST TALK MORE OFFLINE ABOUT THAT AND HOW WE CAN MAKE THAT HAPPEN. SO IT WON'T BE DIFFICULT OR WHATEVER THE CHALLENGES YOU ARE HAVING. 
          THANK YOU SO MUCH. ALRIGHT. CHAIRMAN JOHNSON,
I LOVE YOUR IDEA OF BREAKING OUT THE DATA FOR YOUTH VIOLENCE, BOTH PERPETRATORS AND VICTIMS, AND WE'LL HAVE THAT ON A FUTURE BRIEFING. 
          THANK YOU FOR THAT SUGGESTION. WELL, MY ONLY COMMENT IS THIS PAGE SEVEN,
WHICH IS THE PAGE I ACTUALLY HANG UP IN MY OFFICE EVERY MONTH. 
          AND THE REASON WHY IT'S SO POWERFUL TO ME IS IT'S SHOWING 73 LESS VICTIMS JUST FROM LAST
YEAR, SAME MONTH, AND EVERY YEAR IT'S YEAR OVER YEAR DECREASES. 
          AND SO WHEN YOU THINK OF WHERE WE WERE AND WHERE WE ARE,
IT'S JUST REALLY REMARKABLE. 
          AND I HOPE YOU ALSO WILL HANG THIS IN YOUR OFFICE,
BECAUSE YOU SHOULD LOOK AT THIS ALL THE TIME. 
          AND THIS IS SOMETHING TO BE PROUD OF. AND SO THANK YOU FOR YOUR HARD WORK. 
          I MEAN, EVERY TIME WHEN WE GET THE BRIEFING,
I'M LIKE, OH, LOOK AT THE NUMBERS. 
          REALLY GREAT. SO CONGRATULATIONS AND THANK YOU FOR CONTINUING THIS EFFORT THAT'S BEEN SO
SUCCESSFUL. 
          COUNCIL MEMBER ROTH. I WANT TO APPLAUD YOU ALL FOR THE POSITIVE NUMBERS THAT ARE HERE. 
          I'D LIKE TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE KEEPING TRACK OR TRYING TO GET SOME ANECDOTAL EVIDENCE OR
AT LEAST INDICATION THAT WE ARE ACTUALLY GETTING ACTUAL INFORMATION FROM THE NEIGHBORHOODS THAT CRIME IS BEING
REPORTED. 
          I'M CONCERNED THAT SOME NEIGHBORHOODS IN PARTICULAR MAY BE NOT FEELING COMFORTABLE
ACTUALLY IDENTIFYING AND REPORTING. AND I WANT TO JUST MAKE SURE THAT YOU'RE AWARE OF IT, NUMBER ONE, WHICH I KNOW YOU ARE, BUT THAT SOMEHOW WE'RE ABLE TO DIG INTO THOSE
COMMUNITIES AND MAKE SURE THAT PEOPLE FEEL COMFORTABLE 
          [00:35:09]
REPORTING, IDENTIFYING AND USING US AS A CITY AS A RESOURCE TO REALLY HELP THEM STOP CRIMINAL ACTIVITY THAT MAY NOT BE BEING ACTUALLY REPORTED IN THEIR COMMUNITIES. 
          ARE YOU SEEING THAT IN ANY WAY? SO YES, A BIT. 
          AND DEPENDING ON WHICH COMMUNITY IS. WE'VE ALSO HAVE AN ACT TEAM THAT SPECIFICALLY GOES
OUT AND DOES THAT. 
          THEY'RE IN CLASS UNIFORMS, SO THEY'RE NOT AS FORWARD LOOKING AS WE LOOK IN OUR TRADITIONAL
UNIFORMS. AND THEY'RE THERE FOR THOSE RESOURCES JUST TO HAVE COMMUNICATIONS CONVERSATIONS AND THEN
TO GET THE INFORMATION OUT TO THEM. 
          OF COURSE, IF SOMETHING HAPPENS, THEY DEAL WITH IT AT THE SCENE. 
          BUT WE ARE AWARE OF THAT. WE'VE AGAIN CREATED ANOTHER UNIT JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT WE CAN
DO THAT AND WE UNDERSTAND WHERE THOSE COMMUNITIES ARE. 
          YES, SIR. EXCELLENT. OKAY. WELL, I THINK WE'RE READY TO GO TO OUR NEXT BRIEFING,
WHICH IS SEXUALLY ORIENTED BUSINESSES ORDINANCE UPDATE. 
          I'LL JUST SAY, AS YOU'RE COMING TO GET SETTLED,
WE WERE GOING TO HAVE THIS, I THINK, LAST MONTH. 
          WE ENDED UP PUSHING IT TO THIS MONTH. BUT FOR THOSE WHO'VE BEEN AROUND FOR A WHILE,
THIS WAS A MAJOR BATTLE BACK IN THE DAY, AND WE HAD SEVERAL LAWSUITS. AND SO I APPRECIATE THAT YOU'RE GOING TO GO OVER THE WHOLE
STORY. 
          GOOD AFTERNOON, PUBLIC SAFETY. I'M MAJOR AARIN HARRELL. 
          I'M THE COMMANDER OF THE SPECIAL INVESTIGATION DIVISION. OKAY. YOU GOT TO MOVE THAT
MICROPHONE A LITTLE BIT CLOSER. SORRY. THANK YOU SO MUCH. GOOD AFTERNOON. 
          PUBLIC SAFETY COMMITTEE. I'M MAJOR AARIN HARRELL,
THE COMMANDER OF THE SPECIAL INVESTIGATION DIVISION. TO MY LEFT, I HAVE DEPUTY CHIEF ERIC ROMAN. TO MY RIGHT,
I HAVE LIEUTENANT DANIEL MULVIHILL. 
          FOR TODAY'S PRESENTATION, I'LL BE DISCUSSING APPROVAL HISTORY OF SEXUALLY ORIENTED
BUSINESSES, SPECIAL INVESTIGATION DIVISION, INVESTIGATIVE ROLE AND COLLABORATIVE EFFORTS. 
          REDUCTION OF VIOLENT CRIME AT THE EXACT SOB LOCATIONS. 
          NEXT SLIDE. THE PURPOSE OF THIS BRIEFING IS TO CONNECT CRIME TRENDS TO ENFORCEMENT EFFORTS
TO SHOW HOW INSPECTIONS, REGULATIONS, INVESTIGATIONS WORK TOGETHER TO PREVENT VIOLENCE. 
          ALSO WITH THIS PRESENTATION, I'M GOING TO SHOW A YEAR OVER DATE THAT VIOLENT CRIME AND
SOBS LOCATIONS, ESPECIALLY BETWEEN 2 A.M. AND 6 A.M. HAS SIGNIFICANTLY DECREASED. 
          NEXT SLIDE. DUE TO THE INCREASE IN VIOLENT CRIME,
THE DALLAS CITY COUNCIL APPROVED A SEXUAL ORDINANCE BUSINESS ORDINANCE IN JANUARY OF 2022. IN MAY OF 2022, A PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION PREVENTED THE CITY FROM ENFORCING THE
ORDINANCE. 
          DPD RESUMED ENFORCEMENT IN NOVEMBER OF 2023 AFTER LITIGATION CONCLUDED,
AND THE APPELLATE RULING UPHELD THE CITY'S AUTHORITY TO ENFORCE THE ORDINANCE. 
          NEXT SLIDE. SPECIAL INVESTIGATION DIVISIONS. PROBLEM LOCATION. 
          SPECIAL INVESTIGATION DIVISION INVESTIGATE PROBLEM LOCATIONS THROUGH COMPLAINTS,
INTELLIGENCE INSPECTION AND INITIATES CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION WHEN VIOLATIONS ARE IDENTIFIED, ALL ACTIVITY IS DOCUMENTED AND MONITORED FOR COMPLIANCE. 
          NEXT SLIDE. DPD USES A COORDINATED, MULTI-AGENCY APPROACH COMBINING PATROL,
ENFORCEMENT, REGULATORY INSPECTIONS, LEGAL OVERSIGHT, STATE AND FEDERAL PARTNERSHIPS TO HOLD PROBLEM LOCATIONS
ACCOUNTABLE. 
          NEXT SLIDE. THIS TABLE SHOWS VIOLENT CRIME BREAKDOWN FROM 2022 TO 2026,
YEAR TO DATE AND BY TIME OF DAY. 
          BETWEEN 2022 TO 2026, VIOLENT CRIME AT THE EXACT LOCATIONS DURING 2A TO 6A HAS DECREASED
BY 96.7%. 
          NEXT SLIDE. THIS SLIDE ALSO SHOWS CRIMES REPORTED BETWEEN 2 A.M. 
          AND 6 A.M. FROM 2022 TO 2026. IN 2022, THERE WERE 30 VIOLENT CRIMES DURING THESE HOURS,
FROM 2A TO 6A. 
          IN 2026 YEAR TO DATE, THERE HAS ONLY BEEN ONE. 
          THAT IS A 96.7 REDUCTION FOR VIOLENT CRIME DURING THE EXACT HOURS. 
          NEXT SLIDE. THIS CONCLUDES THE SIXTH ORDER OF BUSINESS UPDATE. 
          THANK YOU. I'M GOING TO START WITH MAYOR PRO TEM,
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS. 
          THANK YOU, CHAIR. THANK YOU GUYS FOR THE PRESENTATION. 
          [00:40:03]
AGAIN, WONDERING HOW DOES THIS COMPARE TO AFTER HOUR CLUBS THAT ARE NOT SOBS? DO WE HAVE A SIDE BY SIDE TO LOOK AT OTHER AFTER HOUR VENUES THAT ARE NOT LICENSED OR DO
NOT HAVE THE DESIGNATION AS AN SOB? CAN YOU GUYS DO YOUR MICROPHONE? I DON'T HAVE THE INFORMATION AS OF RIGHT NOW,
BUT I CAN DEFINITELY GET THAT OVER TO YOU. 
          OKAY, THAT WOULD BE GREAT. AND CAN WE GET A COPY OF THE ORDINANCE THAT WAS APPROVED? AND THEN I BELIEVE THAT ORDINANCE HAD A TIME FRAME FOR STAFF TO COME BACK TO COUNCIL TO
REVIEW, AND I'M NOT SURE IF IT TALKED ABOUT MAKING ANY CHANGES OR JUST CONTINUING IT YEAR AFTER
YEAR. 
          AND SO I'M JUST TRYING TO GET SOME SEQUENCE OF EVENTS ON PROCEDURALLY,
IT WAS ASKED FOR THIS TO COME BACK FOR REVIEW. AT WHAT YEAR MARK WAS THAT? SO COME BACK FOR REVIEW? YEAH. I BELIEVE WE SAID IF MY MEMORY SERVES ME CORRECT,
THAT THIS ORDINANCE WOULD COME BACK. 
          HAD STANDING. SORRY, CAN YOU REPEAT THAT QUESTION ONE MORE TIME,
SIR? SO, I MEAN, WE'RE HERE SITTING IN 2026. YES,
SIR. 
          AND SO I'M JUST TRYING TO DO THE MATH ON WHY THIS WASN'T REVIEWED SOONER AND WHAT TRIGGERS
THOSE TWO YEAR REVIEW PERIODS? SO WAS IT IN 20? IF I'M NOT MISTAKEN, IN 2024 CHIEF POPE DID A REVIEW FOR THE SOBS. 
          THEN THIS IS MY TURN FOR THE 2026 TO GO BACK. 
          OKAY. AND WERE THERE ANY CHANGES IN 24 FROM THE ORIGINAL ORDINANCE? NO, SIR. OKAY. AND WITH THE VIOLENT CRIME IS STILL DEFINITELY TRENDING DOWN WITH THE SOBS. 
          OKAY. AND THEN ON PAGE SEVEN, WHEN WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE VIOLENT CRIME,
ARE THESE UNIQUE NUMBERS WHERE THESE INCIDENTS. FOR EXAMPLE, IF AN INCIDENT HAPPENED ON ONE EVENING,
BUT IT WAS THREE DIFFERENT INCIDENTS, IS THAT LABELED AS ONE INCIDENT OR MULTIPLE INCIDENTS? NO, THAT'D BE MULTIPLE INCIDENTS. SO IF YOU HAVE THREE SEPARATE INCIDENTS,
THEN THAT WOULD BE THREE SEPARATE INSTANCES AT THAT ONE LOCATION. 
          OKAY. EVEN IF IT WAS ON THE SAME DATE? YES. OKAY. 
          CAN WE GET A BREAKDOWN JUST TO SHOW US INCIDENTS PER NIGHT? EVEN IF THERE WAS MULTIPLE PARTIES RELATED, THAT WAY WE CAN GET A CLEAR INDICATION OF HOW
MANY INCIDENTS ACTUALLY OCCURRED. 
          THANK YOU, CHAIR. WELCOME. WHO ELSE HAS ANY QUESTIONS? SURE. COUNCILMEMBER CADENA. I JUST HAVE A COMMENT. 
          SO WHEN I WAS CHIEF OF STAFF, I ACTUALLY WAS ABLE TO GO ON A RIDE ALONG WHERE WE. 
          I THINK THERE WAS MULTIPLE DEPARTMENTS, CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE. 
          AND SO IT WAS REALLY INFORMATIVE JUST TO SEE HOW YOU ALL DO THE INSPECTIONS. 
          AND WE WENT TO AN SOB, BUT WE ALSO WENT TO A LATE NIGHT,
I THINK, A CLUB THAT WASN'T PERMITTED. 
          SO I JUST APPRECIATE ALL OF THE WORK THAT Y'ALL HAVE DONE ON THIS. 
          AND IT WAS EXTREMELY BENEFICIAL. IF Y'ALL HAVEN'T HAD A CHANCE TO DO IT,
I WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND IT. 
          THANK YOU. OKAY, WELL, I'M JUST GOING TO SAY I REMEMBER WHEN ALL THOSE SEATS WERE FILLED
WITH PEOPLE FROM STRIP CLUBS. 
          THE END OF THE WORLD WAS COMING IF WE ENACTED THIS. 
          OBVIOUSLY, THERE ARE MULTIPLE LAWSUITS. AND WHAT SLIDE SEVEN SHOWS SO CLEARLY IS HOW
INCREDIBLE THIS HAS BEEN IN REDUCING CRIME. I MEAN, 96.7% DROP IN VIOLENT CRIME IS OUTSTANDING AND REALLY SHOWS EVERYTHING YOU SAID TO US WHEN YOU WERE SAYING IT. 
          AND SO I JUST WANT TO SAY FROM 50 VIOLENT CRIME INCIDENCES TO 15,
WITH THIS BEING THE THING THAT CHANGED IS JUST TRULY OUTSTANDING. 
          AND SO I JUST WANT TO SAY THANK YOU. THANK YOU. 
          YOU GUYS PUSHED FOR IT. WE SUPPORTED YOU THROUGH MULTIPLE LAWSUITS. 
          AND LOOK WHAT'S HAPPENED. YOU'VE HELPED MAKE EVERYBODY SAFER. 
          SO THANK YOU, THANK YOU. OKAY, LET'S GO TO OUR NEXT ITEM. 
          THIS WOULD BE ITEM E, RANDOM GUNFIRE. 
          [00:45:13]
GOOD MORNING, COMMITTEE MEMBERS. I'M MAJOR YANCEY NELSON,
AND THIS WILL BE A SHORT UPDATE ON OUR EFFORTS WITH RANDOM GUNFIRE. 
          OKAY. NEXT SLIDE. SO THESE ARE JUST STATISTICS FROM THE LAST THREE YEARS. WHAT WE KNOW IS THAT RANDOM GUNFIRE CALLS OVER THE COURSE OF THE LAST THREE YEARS
ARE DOWN AT ALL OF OUR PATROL DIVISIONS WITH 24 THROUGH 25 BEING HIGHEST REDUCTION,
A LITTLE BIT OVER 10%. 
          NEXT SLIDE. SO OUR NEXT STEPS AS WE APPROACH RANDOM GUNFIRE WILL BE CENTERED AROUND THREE DIFFERENT ITEMS. TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION, PROACTIVE INTELLIGENCE GATHERING AND INCREASED AWARENESS THROUGH
OUR PUBLIC INFORMATION OFFICE. 
          NEXT SLIDE. SO WE ARE WORKING ON A CONCEPT OF TECHNOLOGY THAT WOULD ALLOW US ABOUT A 32 SECONDS TO TWO MINUTE RESPONSE TO RANDOM GUNFIRE. 
          THAT WOULD PROVIDE RESPONDING OFFICERS ADDITIONAL INFORMATION RELATED TO THOSE CALLS. 
          IT WOULD ALSO PROVIDE REMOTE ACCESS TO A SCENE TO SUPERVISORS. 
          THIS VIDEO IS A CONCEPT VIDEO. I WANT TO STRESS THAT IT'S A CONCEPT VIDEO OF WHAT WE
BELIEVE THAT TECHNOLOGY WILL ALLOW US TO DO, AS WE ARE WORKING WITH VARIOUS TECHNOLOGY PARTNERS. 
          RANDOM GUNFIRE DASHBOARD. IT'S PART OF OUR PEREGRINE APPLICATION. 
          WE'RE IN THE PROCESS OF BUILDING THIS OUT, WHICH YOU SEE HERE ON THE SCREEN,
IT'S A HEAT MAP. 
          IT SHOWS RANDOM GUNFIRE COUNTS FOR THE CURRENT DAY,
SEVEN DAYS, 30 DAYS, 90 DAYS, LAST YEAR. 
          IT GIVES US AN AVERAGE VIEW OF THE MONTH, AND IT GIVES US AN AVERAGE ABOUT A WEEK. 
          I THINK THIS PARTICULAR ONE IS SHOWING IT'S ACTUALLY DISTRICT 4. 
          NEXT SLIDE. SO I MENTIONED PROACTIVE INTELLIGENCE GATHERING. 
          WHAT THAT WOULD CONSIST OF IS SMALL COVERT GROUPS OF OFFICERS IN OUR RANDOM GUNFIRE
HOTSPOTS. 
          [00:50:01]
AND THEY WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR GATHERING INFORMATION REGARDING PEOPLE,
PLACES AND TRENDS WHERE WE'RE SEEING RANDOM GUNFIRE. 
          NEXT SLIDE. SO LASTLY, THE INCREASED PUBLIC AWARENESS. 
          WE ACTUALLY HAVE BILLBOARDS THAT ARE SCHEDULED TO GO UP VERY,
VERY SOON. 
          I'VE GOT ACTUALLY COPIES OF WHAT THOSE BILLBOARDS LOOK LIKE THAT I'LL HAND OUT TO YOU HERE
SHORTLY. 
          AND WE'RE REALLY PUSHING OUR NPO OFFICERS TO REALLY ENGAGE IN THEIR COMMUNITY EVENTS,
WHEREVER AROUND RANDOM GUNFIRE. 
          SO THIS CONCLUDES THE BRIEFING, AND I'LL TAKE ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU HAVE. 
          THANK YOU. BEFORE WE GO TO QUESTIONS, CAN I JUST ASK YOU THE DASHBOARD YOU JUST SHOWED US, IS THAT PUBLIC FACING OR IS THAT FOR INTERNAL USE? THAT'S AN INTERNAL DASHBOARD. YES. OKAY. I BET EVERY COUNCIL MEMBER WOULD PROBABLY LOVE TO
SEE THEIR OWN DISTRICTS, IF YOU DON'T MIND BEING ABLE TO SEND THAT TO EVERYBODY. 
          I THINK THAT'S REALLY INTERESTING BUT DISTRICT 4 WOULD LIKE TO SEE THAT. 
          YEAH, WE'RE STILL IN THE PROCESS OF FULLY BUILDING IT OUT. 
          THAT WAS BASICALLY A SCREENSHOT FROM WHAT WE HAVE NOW. 
          YEAH. WELL, ONCE YOU DO, WILL YOU SEND JUST THE DISTRICT SPECIFIC? ABSOLUTELY. COUNCILMEMBER RESENDEZ, YOU LOOK LIKE YOU HAD A QUESTION. THANK YOU,
MADAM CHAIR. AND THANK YOU FOR THE PRESENTATION. I THINK THAT THE EFFORTS THAT ARE SHOWN ON THIS PRESENTATION ARE ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS WE CAN DO TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY
OF LIFE FOR RESIDENTS IN THE CITY OF DALLAS. 
          I DID HAVE ONE QUESTION, AND IT'S RELATED TO WHAT CHAIRWOMAN MENDELSOHN MENTIONED. 
          I WAS LOOKING AT SLIDE NUMBER TWO, WHERE IT HAS THE DIFFERENT,
YOU KNOW, SOUTHWEST, SOUTHEAST, DIFFERENT AREAS. I WAS WONDERING IF IT WOULD BE POSSIBLE TO BREAK IT DOWN FURTHER SO THAT
WE CAN SEE IT IN TERMS OF COUNCIL DISTRICTS, BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY, FOR EXAMPLE, SOUTHEAST IS,
YOU KNOW, THERE'S DIFFERENT UNIQUE NEEDS WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT SOUTH DALLAS OR COMPARE THAT TO PLEASANT GROVE AND DISTRICT 5. AND SO I'D BE INTERESTED TO SEE WHAT THE NUMBERS LOOK
LIKE FROM A DISTRICT LEVEL. 
          YES, SIR. WE CAN DEFINITELY DO THAT. YEAH. THANK YOU. 
          THAT'S ALL I HAVE. BUT AGAIN, THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH. THIS IS SUPER IMPORTANT. THE ONLY
THING I WISH IS THAT WE HAD STARTED THIS SOONER. 
          THANK YOU. THANK YOU. CHAIRMAN JOHNSON, DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ON THIS? NO? CHAIR STEWART. THANK YOU, CHAIR. SO A COUPLE OF THINGS. 
          AN RG AREA, RG STANDS FOR. RANDOM GUNFIRE. RANDOM GUNFIRE. 
          AND WHAT IS ROLLING L 900? I DON'T KNOW WHAT ROLLING MEANS IN YOUR WORLD. 
          ON THE SLIDE SIX, THOSE NUMBERS FOR DISTRICT 4 ARE DISTRICT 4 SLASH ROLLING L70 IF MY GLASSES ARE WORKING AND I'M READING IT CORRECTLY. 
          IT'S A REALLY TINY PRINT UNDERNEATH THE NUMBERS. 
          I WAS JUST TRYING TO UNDERSTAND WHAT THOSE NUMBERS MEAN. 
          ROLLING TODAY. I'M ASSUMING THEY'RE. YEAH, I'M SURE THAT'S REFERRING TO JUST THE ROLLING
COUNT. 
          JUST A LIVE COUNT. SO THE COUNT IS BROKEN DOWN TODAY,
7 DAYS, 30 DAYS, 90 DAYS. 
          OKAY. YEAH. THAT'S A D AT THE END FOR DAYS. OKAY. 
          YES. YEAH. THAT IS SMALL PRINT. IT'S VERY SMALL. 
          OKAY. THAT HELPS. I WAS JUST TRYING TO UNDERSTAND THE NUMBERS AND WHAT THEY REPRESENTED. 
          WELL, RANDOM GUNFIRE IS AN ISSUE IN DISTRICT 10. 
          I HEARD RANDOM GUNFIRE, PROBABLY EARLY SUNDAY MORNING THIS WEEKEND. 
          IT WAS AUDELIA NEAR WALNUT HILL. I SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN UP AND REPORTED IT,
BUT ONCE I KNOW WE HAVE DRONES THAT WILL THEN BE DISPATCHED TO THE AREA, I WILL DO THAT. 
          BUT UNTIL WE HAVE THAT TECHNOLOGY, I'M AFRAID IT JUST FEELS LIKE IT'S NOT ANYTHING AND
OFFICERS CAN'T GET THERE QUICKLY ENOUGH. 
          IT'S JUST THE DYNAMICS OF THAT PARTICULAR SITUATION. 
          BUT SO DO WE KNOW WHEN WE'LL HAVE THE DRONE TECHNOLOGY THAT WE'RE HOPING FOR? RIGHT NOW, WE'RE VERY MUCH IN THE CONCEPT PHASE. 
          OKAY. SO THERE'S A LOT OF THINGS THAT ARE IN THE WORKS AS FAR AS COMING TOGETHER AND
FIGURING OUT WHAT VENDORS TO USE, WHAT TECHNOLOGY WORKS WITH WHATEVER OTHER TECHNOLOGY THAT WE'RE TRYING TO USE TO GET IT
ALL INTEGRATED JUST FOR THE BEST PACKAGE FOR THE CITY. 
          SO WE HAVE THE GUNFIRE DETECTION SOFTWARE, CORRECT? 
          [00:55:03]
SO WE HAVE THAT PIECE OF IT. YES. AND WE HAVE DRONES,
IS THAT CORRECT? WE DO. SO WE NEED THE TECHNOLOGY THAT CONNECTS THE DETECTION TO GIVE THAT INFORMATION TO
THE DRONES. 
          IS THAT WHERE WE ARE? BASICALLY, I GUESS THE SIMPLEST WAY TO PUT IT IS THAT WE NEEDED TO
BE ABLE TO ALL WORK TOGETHER IN A BEST PACKAGE FOR THIS. YEAH, I AM TRYING TO UNDERSTAND WHAT ALL WORK TOGETHER MEANS. 
          WELL SO THE DRONES BEING CONNECTED TO THE CAMERAS BEING CONNECTED TO CAD,
BEING CONNECTED TO THE GUNSHOT DETECTION, LIKE THE VIDEO KIND OF SHOWS YOU GET AN ACTIVATION. 
          THE DRONE IS SENT UP. IT GETS TO THE SCENE VERY,
VERY RAPIDLY. 
          IT'S ABLE TO GIVE INFORMATION TO OFFICERS WHO WOULD BE RESPONDING. 
          YEAH. JUST KIND OF GETTING IT ALL TIED TOGETHER. 
          AND THE CAMERAS ARE LOCATED. IS THAT SOMETHING THAT'S ON THE DRONE? THE DRONE HAS A CAMERA. PLUS THERE WOULD BE CAMERAS WITHIN AN AREA THAT WOULD ALSO HAVE
LICENSE PLATE READERS. 
          OKAY. THE FLOCK CAMERAS CAN THEN. RIGHT. OKAY. 
          OKAY. WELL, I THINK THIS IS JUST AN ISSUE FOR ALL OF OUR DISTRICTS. 
          AND IT SPEAKS TO QUALITY OF LIFE. THE GUNFIRE MAKES PEOPLE AFRAID. 
          AND ANYTHING THAT WE CAN DO TO REDUCE THAT FEAR,
I WOULD SAY, IS A HIGH PRIORITY. 
          THANK YOU. THANK YOU, CHAIR. THANK YOU. COUNCILOR ROTH. 
          YEAH. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRESENTATION. I WAS ALSO WANTING TO MAKE SURE I UNDERSTOOD THE
TECHNOLOGY. 
          AS I RECALL, WE HAD A BRIEFING SEVERAL MONTHS AGO ABOUT THE ACTUAL NEED FOR THE PART OF
THAT TECHNOLOGY THAT WASN'T CONNECTED TO THE DRONES AND THAT WE WERE WORKING TOWARDS BUYING OR A TEST CASE OF THOSE TO SEE WHAT WAS GOING ON THAT AND THAT
THE TECHNOLOGY ALLOWED FOR REALLY AND A ONE MILE, YOU KNOW, IDENTIFICATION AREA. 
          AM I CONFUSING TWO DIFFERENT TECHNOLOGIES THAT WE TALKED ABOUT WITH REGARD TO DRONES AND
THE CAMERA SLASH, YOU KNOW, COMPUTER INTERNET TECHNOLOGY THAT WAS GOING TO MAKE THEM MORE EFFICIENT FOR THE
PATROL PEOPLE? YES. I MEAN, JUST. 
          YEAH. WE'RE MOVING TOWARDS THAT DIRECTION, RIGHT,
OF MAKING SURE. 
          SEE IF HOW THEY'RE WORKING AND TRY TO IDENTIFY THE MOST DIFFICULT AREAS AND AREAS WHERE
THEY WOULD MAKE THE MOST IMPACT INITIALLY. 
          AND THAT'S STILL THE PLAN? YES, SIR. YEAH. WE'RE WORKING ON A PILOT PROGRAM THAT WOULD
TEST ALL THE TECHNOLOGIES AND MAKE SURE THAT IT'S, YOU KNOW, EXACTLY WHAT WE WANT BASED ON THE CONCEPT. 
          IT ALSO SOUNDS LIKE THIS IS A REAL OPPORTUNITY TO IDENTIFY THE POSSIBILITY OF EXPANDING OR
BUILDING ON THAT TECHNOLOGY TO PROVIDE OTHER TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS FOR IDENTIFICATION OF CRIMES OF PUBLIC SAFETY ISSUES AND ALSO JUST
EMERGENCY SITUATIONS. 
          SO I THINK THAT THE DIRECTION IS CREATIVE. I THINK IT'S THOUGHTFUL. 
          IT SOUNDS LIKE IT EVEN MIGHT BE COST EFFECTIVE. 
          SO I APPLAUD YOU FOR MOVING IN THAT DIRECTION. 
          THANK YOU. THE ABSOLUTE GOLD IS THE TECHNOLOGY AS A FORCE MULTIPLIER. 
          EXCELLENT. COUNCIL MEMBER CADENA. I JUST HAVE A QUESTION ON CLARIFICATION. 
          IS THE DRONE TECHNOLOGY IN ALL AREAS OF THE CITY RIGHT NOW? WHAT WE JUST SHOWED TODAY, IT'S A CONCEPT. WE DO HAVE DRONES THAT WE HAVE OFFICERS WHO ARE
ABLE TO DEPLOY THOSE DRONES FOR DIFFERENT INCIDENTS THAT OCCUR. BUT WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT TODAY,
THAT'S A CONCEPT. 
          WE DON'T HAVE ANY OF THE THINGS THAT WE JUST BASICALLY SHOWED. 
          AS FAR AS AN INTEGRATED NETWORK, WE DON'T HAVE THAT. 
          YEAH. WHAT ABOUT THE GUNFIRE, I GUESS DETECTION? YEAH, WE HAVE THE GUNSHOT DETECTION. WE JUST DON'T HAVE IT INTEGRATED,
YOU KNOW, WITH THE DRONES, WITH CAMERAS, WITH LICENSE PLATE READERS. THAT WOULD GIVE US WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR. 
          AND THEN MY OTHER QUESTION IS, SO DO WE NEED THE CALLS FOR DATA NOW TO HELP US DETERMINE
WHERE THOSE HIGH TRAFFIC AREAS? OR IS THAT SOMETHING THAT MAYBE OUR RESIDENTS NEED TO WAIT FOR? AND I'M KIND OF WONDERING, LIKE, IS THE PUBLIC AWARENESS CAMPAIGN GOING TO INCLUDE LIKE
HOW TO REPORT AND WHAT LIKE THE FINES ARE ASSOCIATED WITH? SO YEAH, THE PUBLIC AWARENESS PROGRAM, IT WILL BUILD UP FROM WHAT IT INITIALLY STARTS OUT
TO 
          [01:00:08]
BE. AND LIKE I SAID, I'LL SHOW YOU WHAT WE HAVE NOW THAT SHOULD BE GOING UP ON BILLBOARDS
PRETTY SOON AND WE'LL BUILD IT OUT FROM THERE. 
          YES. SO I'LL GO BACK TO MY QUESTION. SO DO THE CALLS HELP NOW,
OR IS THAT SOMETHING WE NEED TO WAIT? OH, THE CALLS ABSOLUTELY HELP. YEAH. THE SLIDE THAT WE SHOWED WITH THE STATS ON IT,
THAT WAS SPECIFICALLY FROM THE CALLS. 
          OKAY. THANK YOU. OKAY. SO TELL ME WHAT THE CHARGE IS. 
          IF YOU CAPTURE SOMEBODY WHO HAS SHOT OFF A NUMBER OF GUNS OR BULLETS. 
          WELL, THE INITIAL CHARGE IS DISCHARGING A FIREARM IN THE MUNICIPALITY,
RIGHT? WHAT LEVEL CHARGE IS THAT? IT'S A CLASS B. IT'S A CLASS B? I'M SORRY. IT'S A CLASS A. YEAH. AND WHAT'S THE PENALTY FOR A CLASS A? YOU KNOW. OKAY. I GOT AN ATTORNEY OVER HERE TELLING ME IT'S ONE YEAR IN JAIL. YEAH. 
          I BELIEVE HIM. OKAY. WE HOPE. I'M JUST GOING TO SAY I HOPE YOU GO STRONG ON THIS. 
          MEANING THE BILLBOARD SHOULD NOT BE THESE GREAT DATA DRIVEN SOLUTIONS YOU'RE TELLING US. 
          IT NEEDS TO TELL PEOPLE TO STOP, LIKE, ABSOLUTELY STOP. 
          AND THIS IS THE CONSEQUENCE. IT IS TERRORIZING PEOPLE AND IT'S MAKING THEM FEEL
UNNECESSARILY UNSAFE. 
          BUT THERE IS A REAL SAFETY ISSUE. I WALKED IN AT NORTH CENTRAL AND THEY WERE MEETING WITH
A HOMEOWNERS GROUP FOR A WOMAN WHO HAD A BULLET GO THROUGH ONE OF HER BEDROOMS. IT WAS LODGED IN THE WALL. THIS IS REAL AND IT'S COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE. 
          AND THAT'S WHAT WE ALL NEED TO BE SAYING TO EVERYONE IN OUR COMMUNITIES. 
          THIS IS NOT ALLOWED AND IT WON'T BE TOLERATED. 
          AND SO I SAY THANK YOU, NOT FOR THE PRESENTATION BECAUSE WE ASKED FOR THE PRESENTATION,
BUT FOR PULLING THE DATA TOGETHER AND FOR FOCUSING ON IT AS A PRIORITY, WHICH WE THINK IT IS. SO THAT PART IS IMPORTANT. 
          FOR THE VIDEO YOU SHOWED US, WHICH WAS INTERESTING. 
          IS THERE SUPPOSED TO BE A SOUNDTRACK TO THAT? YES THERE IS. 
          OKAY. YEAH. WELL, IT SEEMED LIKE IT NEEDED ONE. 
          YEAH. SO IT'S A LITTLE BIT OF A FANTASY IN THAT EVERYBODY IMMEDIATELY PUT THEIR HANDS UP
AND SURRENDERED RIGHT AWAY. 
          I'M SURE YOU WISH THAT WAS HOW IT WOULD BE. BUT WE'RE SENDING OFFICERS TO PEOPLE WE KNOW
ARE ARMED AND WILLING TO SHOOT. 
          DOES THAT GIVE YOU PAUSE? IS THAT. I MEAN, IS THERE SOMETHING EXTRA YOU'RE DOING? I MEAN, YOU'RE NOT SENDING A ONE MAN TO THAT,
ARE YOU? OH, ABSOLUTELY NOT, ABSOLUTELY NOT. AND YEAH,
IT'S IT'S OF GREAT CONCERN WHENEVER WE SEND OFFICERS TO CALLS WHERE SOMEONE MAY HAVE A GUN. BUT THAT IS SOMETHING THAT HAPPENS IN THE CITY. 
          AND WE WILL ALWAYS SEND OFFICERS TO THOSE SCENES. 
          WELL, JUST SEND THEM WITH A FRIEND. THANK YOU. 
          LET ME SEE IF I HAD ANOTHER ONE. NO. I WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO ONCE YOU GET THAT DASHBOARD
WHERE YOU WANT IT. 
          I DO THINK IT WOULD BE HELPFUL IF IT BECAME PUBLIC FACING,
SO THAT PEOPLE CAN SEE IF THEY'RE JUST LIVING IN THAT AREA, OR IF IT IS A ONE OFF. I MEAN, THE THE REAL PLACE YOU COULD GET LOTS OF DATA ABOUT RANDOM
GUNFIRE IS NOT NECESSARILY 911. IT'S NEXT DOOR. AND I MEAN, YOU JUST CAN'T SCROLL. 
          LOST DOG, DID ANYONE HEAR A GUNSHOT? RIGHT. AND SO I DON'T KNOW IF THERE'S A WAY TO TAP
INTO THAT. 
          BUT AGAIN, WHEN WE'RE TALKING ABOUT MESSAGING,
BILLBOARDS ARE GOOD. 
          BUT EVEN PUTTING THOSE ADS ON NEXTDOOR TO CALL US AND THAT IT'S NOT TOLERATED. 
          AND HERE'S THE PENALTY IF WE CATCH YOU. AND BY THE WAY,
WE'RE WORKING TO CATCH YOU. 
          OKAY. WELL, THANK YOU VERY MUCH. OKAY, FOLKS. 
          ANYBODY ELSE FOR THIS? OKAY. LET'S GO TO F. THESE ARE OUR REGULAR DASHBOARDS. 
          WHO HAS ANY QUESTIONS ON THAT? WELL, THE ONLY COMMENT I'M GOING TO MAKE IS ABOUT RESPONSE TIMES. AND IF YOU LOOK AT THE PRIORITY ONE FOR CENTRAL AND CBD,
THEY ARE TRULY OUTSTANDING. 
          AT 3.67 MINUTES AND 6.47 MINUTES. AND ALL THAT TELLS ME IS THAT,
NUMBER ONE, HAVING MORE POLICE OFFICERS AND HAVING A FOCUS ON THAT MEANS WE'LL GET RESULTS. AND SO WE'RE AIMING TO DO THAT ACROSS THE BOARD HERE WITH RESPONSE TIMES. 
          THANK YOU. LET'S COMMIT TO DOING THAT. ANYTHING ELSE ON THE DASHBOARDS? I'LL NOTE THAT RACING HAD NO EVENTS THAT THEY WENT TO,
BUT THEY HAD A LOT OF TRAFFIC STOPS. 
          AND I'LL SAY THANK YOU FOR TRAFFIC STOPS, EVEN IF I ALMOST GOT A TICKET. 
          [01:05:05]
BUT Y'ALL ARE OUT THERE AND THAT'S NEEDED, AND THAT WILL HELP SAVE LIVES AS WELL. 
          MADAM CHAIR, CAN I JUST ASK ONE QUICK QUESTION ABOUT RESPONSE TIMES? IF SOMEBODY COULD COULD ANSWER THAT? I'LL GO AHEAD AND ASK THE QUESTION AS YOU'RE WALKING, AND I'LL TRY TO ASK IT A LITTLE SLOWLY,
JUST TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE BIT MORE TIME TO COME. 
          I WAS JUST CURIOUS TO KNOW IF THERE'S ANY SPECIFIC STAFFING OR INFRASTRUCTURE CHALLENGES
THAT ARE CONTRIBUTING TO THE INCREASED RESPONSE TIMES IN THE SOUTHEAST DIVISION. 
          ROBERT. ROBERT, THE ASSISTANT DIRECTOR FOR DALLAS POLICE DEPARTMENT. 
          SO I DON'T HAVE THE SPECIFIC DATA PER DIVISION. 
          HOWEVER, WHAT I WILL TELL YOU IS THAT WE ARE MAKING SIGNIFICANT STRIDES. 
          NOW, AS YOU'VE NOTICED ON ON THE DASHBOARD IN THE MONTH OF JANUARY. 
          WE'RE ALMOST MEETING THE GOAL FOR OUR PRIORITY ONE RESPONSE TIME. 
          THE PRIORITY TWO RESPONSE TIMES HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY DECREASED AS WELL. 
          AND SO THE PRIORITY THREES AND FOURS. BUT THERE'S ALWAYS GOING TO BE A CHALLENGE. 
          ULTIMATELY THE TEAMS ARE DOING A GREAT JOB OUT THERE. 
          AND SO WE'RE REALLY APPRECIATIVE OF THEIR HARD WORK. 
          OKAY. SO I WAS JUST ASKING THE QUESTION BASED ON THE INFORMATION WE HAD,
BUT I KNOW THAT THERE WILL BE A STORY SOON. 
          MAYBE THIS WEEK FROM THE LAB REPORT THAT'S GOING TO TALK ABOUT THE RESPONSE TIMES. 
          AND PART OF IT IS RELATED TO THE SOUTHEAST DIVISION. 
          I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH IN DETAIL THEY'LL GET INTO IT,
BUT, YOU KNOW, I WAS HAVING A CONVERSATION WITH THE REPORTER ON THAT. 
          SO I WAS JUST CURIOUS TO KNOW IF, YOU KNOW, BIG PICTURE WISE,
IF THERE'S ANYTHING YOU CAN SAY ABOUT THAT AS IT RELATES SPECIFICALLY TO THE SOUTHEAST DIVISION, BECAUSE I KIND OF THINK, YOU KNOW,
I CAN'T ANSWER IT FOR YOU. 
          BUT AS I MENTIONED A LITTLE EARLIER TODAY, THERE'S UNIQUE CHALLENGES EVEN WITHIN THE
SOUTHEAST PATROL DIVISION. 
          SO I'M JUST WONDERING HOW, YOU KNOW, IF THAT MIGHT PLAY A ROLE OR IF THERE ARE ANY OTHER
BIG PICTURE THINGS YOU COULD CAN MENTION. 
          SO THERE'S A LOT OF SEVERAL FACTORS THAT PLAY INTO RESPONSE TIMES. 
          I MEAN, SOME OF THEM ARE THE INTENSITY OF THE TYPES OF INCIDENTS THAT OCCUR AND HOW MANY
OFFICERS ARE REQUIRED TO BE ON THE SCENE FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME. 
          SO SO THERE ARE MULTIPLE FACTORS THAT COULD IMPACT THAT. 
          ULTIMATELY AGAIN, THE RESPONSE TIMES ARE TRENDING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION AT THIS POINT. 
          OKAY. WELL, WE PROBABLY SHOULD TALK OFFLINE. AND JUST SO I CAN GET A LITTLE BIT MORE,
YOU KNOW, SPECIFICS IN TERMS OF THE SOUTHEAST DIVISION. 
          YES, SIR. THANK YOU, THANK YOU. GREAT. THANK YOU ROBERT. 
          OKAY, SO MOVING ON TO G OUR COURTS. WE HAVE A SPECIAL TIME COMING. 
          I KNOW I SAW THERE HE IS. IF YOU HAVE AN OUTSTANDING CITATION, THIS IS YOUR MOMENT. GOOD AFTERNOON. PUBLIC SAFETY COMMITTEE. THIS IS. MY NAME IS GREG NELSON DIRECTOR OF MUNICIPAL COURTS. 
          THIS INITIATIVE IS GOING TO RUN FEBRUARY 28TH THROUGH MARCH 12TH. 
          IT'S OUR RESOLVE, YOUR OUTSTANDING CITATIONS. 
          SO IF YOU HAVE ANY CITATIONS THAT ARE WARRANT STATUS,
YOU CAN COME TO THE COURT ON 2014 MAIN STREET, AND THE JUDGE WILL PROVIDE YOU OPTIONS OF RESOLVING YOUR CITATION. 
          ALSO, WE WANT TO GET RESIDENTS COMPLIANT. WE WILL HAVE DPS ON ON PREMISES ON THE WEEKEND
TO SO RESIDENTS CAN MAKE APPOINTMENTS TO GET THEIR LICENSE IN COMPLIANCE. JUDGE ANYTHING? NO. THIS IS A TIME OF YEAR THAT WE'RE HAPPY TO WORK WITH THE
PROSECUTION AND WORK WITH COURTS, AS THE DIRECTOR SAID, TO BRING PEOPLE IN COMPLIANCE,
ALSO ASSIST THEM IN GETTING AND OBTAINING A DRIVER'S LICENSE OR OBTAINING AN APPOINTMENT TO DO SO. AND WE HAVE PLENTY OF OPTIONS FOR PEOPLE. 
          WE EXTENDED THROUGHOUT THIS TIME TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE OPEN ON SATURDAY OR SUNDAY. WE
UNDERSTAND PEOPLE WORK AND HAVE CHILDCARE ISSUES, SO THIS SATURDAY AND SUNDAY PROVIDES THEM THE OPPORTUNITY,
AS I LIKE TO SAY WE KIND OF TAKE THE EXCUSES AWAY AND REMOVE THE OBSTACLES TO GET THEM IN THE COURT. DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? COUNCILMEMBER ROTH? I THINK IT'S A IT'S A GREAT IDEA TO TRY TO RESOLVE THESE THINGS IN A,
IN A COMPASSIONATE WAY AND IN A THOUGHTFUL WAY. 
          I'M A LITTLE BIT IS ALL OF THESE RESOLUTION SITUATIONS ARE ALL PERSONAL. 
          THEY'RE ALL IN PERSON. IS THAT CORRECT? YES,
SIR. 
          HAS THERE BEEN ANY CONSIDERATION OF CREATING A AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE A COMMUNITY THAT MIGHT
FEEL FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE COMING TO A PARTICULAR LOCATION WOULD BE ABLE TO RESOLVE THESE SITUATIONS
EITHER THROUGH A PHONE OR A VIDEO CONFERENCE OR SOMEWHERE, SOME OTHER OPPORTUNITY WHERE THEY MAY NOT HAVE
TO BE PHYSICALLY PRESENT TO RESOLVE 
          [01:10:08]
THEIR SITUATION AND COULD STILL BE ABLE TO ACCESS THAT OPPORTUNITY IN A COMFORTABLE,
SAFER AND LESS DIFFICULT SITUATION. THOSE ARE THINGS THAT WE'VE DEFINITELY CONSIDERED. 
          THE SUPREME COURT OF TEXAS, HOWEVER, LIMITED OUR ABILITY TO BE ABLE TO DO VIRTUAL
HEARINGS. 
          AND SO FOR THE NEXT ONE, WE CAN CONSIDER SOME ALTERNATIVE SOLUTIONS. 
          WE ALSO STILL HAVE THE COMMUNITY COURTS. AND BECAUSE THEY DON'T NECESSARILY HAVE
PRETRIALS, THEY'RE ABLE TO DO THINGS THAT WE DON'T DO AND STILL HAVE VIRTUAL HEARINGS,
BUT IT'S SOMETHING THAT WE CONSIDER. 
          WE'RE ALSO VERY SENSITIVE ABOUT DIFFERENT COMMUNITIES AND HOW THEY MAY FEEL OR NOT FEEL. 
          WE EXPERIENCED THAT MAYBE LAST YEAR IN MAKING SURE THAT WE DIDN'T WANT ANYBODY FEELING
LIKE THEY MAY BE PUT IN A POSITION WHERE THEY WOULD BE INTERCEPTED OR NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE. SO WHAT ARE WHAT? SO WHAT ARE YOU DOING? IS THIS THE ONLY ALTERNATIVE THEN AT THIS POINT FOR THIS PARTICULAR PROGRAM AT THIS
PARTICULAR TIME? NO. THEY STILL HAVE ONLINE OPTIONS THAT THEY CAN APPLY FOR. 
          THEY CAN STILL WRITE IN. WE STILL ACCEPT THINGS BY MAIL. 
          THIS IS MORE SO FOR PEOPLE THAT WILL FEEL COMFORTABLE. 
          AND WE OPEN UP ON SATURDAY AND SUNDAY, BUT WE STILL ALWAYS HAVE THE OPTION TO EITHER APPLY
FOR A PROGRAM ONLINE OR AGAIN, MAIL IN SOMETHING TO US SO THAT THEY WOULD NOT HAVE TO COME DOWN TO THE COURTHOUSE. 
          I DON'T KNOW THAT. AND I'M SORRY THAT I JUST DIDN'T I JUST SAW THIS FLIER,
BUT I, I WOULD SUGGEST THAT MAYBE THAT MIGHT BE SOMETHING THAT YOU MIGHT WANT TO INCLUDE IN YOUR ADVERTISEMENT AND IN YOUR NOTIFICATION TO PEOPLE SO THAT THEY
REALIZE THERE REALLY IS AN ALTERNATIVE, IF, IN FACT, THAT THE CENSUS OF THE PEOPLE THAT YOU'RE TRYING TO SOLVE THEIR PROBLEMS FOR
MAYBE A FAIRLY LARGE GROUP. 
          ANYWAYS, JUST A COMMENT AND SUGGESTION THAT YOU MIGHT WANT TO CONSIDER. 
          DEFINITELY, I APPRECIATE THAT. OKAY, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS? CAN I JUST SUGGEST YOU SEND AT LEAST ONE COPY TO ALL OF THE LIBRARIES AND ALL OF THE REC
CENTERS? YES. COUNCILWOMAN. WE'RE GOING TO HAND DELIVER SOME AND SEND THEM ELECTRONICALLY. 
          YES, MA'AM. THANK YOU. OKAY. SO MOVING ON. ITEM H IS DFR CONSTRUCTION. 
          OH, Y'ALL ARE GOING TO HAVE TO COME DOWN BECAUSE,
YOU KNOW, I'M GOING TO ASK YOU ABOUT THE ALERTING SYSTEM. DID YOU HAVE A QUESTION? COUNCILMAN MORENO. YOU CAN GO FIRST. OKAY. THANK YOU,
MADAM CHAIR. 
          I HOPE I'M NOT. I MIGHT BE OVERLOOKING THIS,
BUT THE STATION NUMBER FOUR FOR THE DALLAS CONVENTION CENTER. 
          I DON'T SEE THAT LISTED ON HERE. AND THEN I BELIEVE THE OAK LAWN FIRE STATION NUMBER 11
WAS A BOND PROGRAM AS WELL. AND SO JUST NOT SURE WHERE WHERE THOSE ARE IN STATUS. 
          OKAY. THANK YOU. COUNCILMAN DANIEL SALAZAR, ASSISTANT CHIEF,
DALLAS FIRE RESCUE. 
          AND NO, IT'S NOT THAT. YOU OVERLOOKED THE STATION FOUR. 
          I'LL PUT THAT. I'LL PLACE THAT ITEM ON THE NEXT MONTH'S BRIEFING MEMO. 
          BUT WE HAVE HAD SEVERAL MEETINGS WITH ARCHITECTS THAT ARE HELPING DESIGN THAT PARTICULAR
FIRE STATION TO BE SITUATED IN PARKING LOT E, THERE'S A LOT OF ACTIVITY THAT'S GOING TO BE TIED TO THE CONVENTION CENTER RENOVATION
PROJECT. 
          SO LOTS OF MOVING PIECES, BUT I'LL MAKE SURE TO INCLUDE THAT ITEM. 
          STATION 11, WE'RE WORKING WITH THE BOND OFFICE REAL ESTATE. 
          SPECIFICALLY, WE'VE BEEN GOING BACK AND FORTH. 
          WE NEED MORE SPACE. CURRENTLY, WE LEASE THE PARKING LOT SPACE TO WALGREENS. 
          IT'S A LONG TERM LEASE. WE'VE BEEN GOING BACK AND FORTH WORKING WITH THEM,
TRYING TO GET MORE OF THAT SPACE IF THEY'LL CONCEDE MORE SPACE SO WE CAN PROCEED WITH THE BIG RENOVATION OF SECTION 11. BUT THUS FAR WE HAVEN'T HAD A LOT OF TRACTION. 
          SO WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO BASICALLY BREAKING THE LEASE WITH WALGREENS SO WE CAN DO WHAT
NEEDS TO BE DONE WITH THAT PARKING LOT SPACE SO WE CAN MOVE FORWARD WITH THE RENOVATION. OKAY. ON ON STATION,
BACK ON STATION FOUR. 
          IS THERE ANY CONCERNS ABOUT THAT RELOCATION FURTHER AWAY FROM THE HIGHWAY? I KNOW THAT STATION FOUR SERVES NOT JUST THE CBD,
BUT A LOT OF THE ACCIDENTS ON THE HIGHWAY. 
          AND SO I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THERE'S ENOUGH TURNAROUND RADIUS TO MEET THE NEED,
THE CURRENT NEEDS THAT ARE THERE TODAY. 
          AND I KNOW THAT'S BEEN A CHALLENGE. SO CAN YOU GIVE US AN UPDATE ON WHERE WE ARE WITH
THAT? SURE. WE'VE HAD QUITE A BIT OF INTERNAL DISCUSSION WITH CHIEF PAUL,
WITH CHIEF PETKO, WITH THE CHIEFS JUST LOOKING AT THE OPERATIONAL IMPACT. 
          [01:15:02]
WE DO FORECAST SOME OPERATIONAL IMPACT, BUT WE HAVE WE FEEL LIKE WE HAVE ENOUGH FIRE
STATIONS TO ASSIST WITH ANY DELAYED RESPONSE. 
          YES. THAT FIRE STATION IS NOT IN THE EXACT LOCATION. 
          IT'LL PUT US CLOSER TO OTHER CALLS, BUT IT'LL PUT THEM THE FIREFIGHTERS FURTHER AWAY FROM
OTHER CALLS HEADED TO THE EAST OF THEIR CURRENT LOCATION, WHICH IS RIGHT ADJACENT HERE TO CITY HALL. 
          AND, YOU KNOW, JUST, YOU KNOW, I WANT TO MAKE SURE WE'RE KEEPING IN MIND WITH ALL THE
GROWTH THAT'S HAPPENING IN THE CEDARS AS WELL. 
          YES. AND, YOU KNOW, MOVING FURTHER AWAY FROM THAT IS CONCERNING. 
          SO THANK YOU. OKAY. AND ACTUALLY, SOME PARTS OF THE CEDARS IN THAT AREA PUTS THE FIRE
STATION A LITTLE BIT CLOSER DEPENDING ON WHERE WITHIN THE CEDARS WERE RESPONDING TO. YES, SIR. ALSO WITH WITH THE NEW BUILD,
THERE'LL BE THE INFRASTRUCTURE WHERE IT WOULD ACCOMMODATE OTHER APPARATUS IF NEED BE. SO ULTIMATELY WE COULD END UP WITH TWO ENGINES THERE. 
          THAT WILL MAKE THE RESPONSE TIME QUICKER TO EVERYWHERE. 
          THANK YOU. ARE THERE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ON THAT? OKAY. SO LET'S TALK ABOUT THE ALERTING SYSTEM NEXT MONTH. 
          I DO NOT WANT TO HAVE IT IN THIS REPORT. I WANT TO HAVE A SEPARATE BRIEFING THAT WILL
BRIEF TO THE FULL COMMITTEE. 
          AND I'M LOOKING TO HAVE A PLAN THAT TAKES US THROUGH FEBRUARY 2027 ON HOW EVERY MONTH,
WHAT'S GOING TO GET DONE. 
          BECAUSE LAST MONTH, I THINK YOU SAID THERE WOULD BE EIGHT OF THEM DONE. 
          THERE ARE NOT EIGHT DONE ACCORDING TO YOUR REPORT. 
          NO, WE WE THIS WE GOT THE COMPANY TO GIVE US THE PLAN. 
          THIS IS THEIR TIMELINE. THIS IS WHAT THEY. WE DIDN'T WE DIDN'T COME UP WITH THIS TIMELINE. 
          THIS IS WHAT THEY CAN ACCOMMODATE. SO WE ASKED THEM TO SPECIFICALLY TELL US TO COME WITH
YOU NEXT MONTH TO THIS BRIEFING. 
          I'LL TRY. YEAH. OH, NO. NO, I'LL ASK HIM. I'M NOT KIDDING. 
          THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS. REALLY? NO, BUT WE DO THE BRIEFING. 
          I WANT TO GO THROUGH THE WHOLE TIMELINE OF THIS PROJECT. 
          THIS IS NOT OKAY. NO, NO. WHAT HAPPENED SINCE LAST MONTH TO NOW,
WITH THIS PROJECT? FROM LAST MONTH TO NOW, WE'VE DONE FIVE FIRE STATIONS IN BATTALION ONE WITH THE WEATHER
AND THE HOLIDAYS WHERE THEY'RE STARTING FIVE ADDITIONAL NO, A TOTAL OF FIVE. BUT LAST MONTH YOU HAD ALREADY DONE THREE. 
          YES. THEY HAD, YOU GOT TWO DONE. YES, MA'AM. BUT BUT,
MISS MENDELSOHN, THEY ASSURED US THAT THIS IS NOT A SNAPSHOT OF THE FUTURE. 
          THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING. BUT THEY'RE GOING TO RAMP IT UP. 
          BUT I WILL BRING HIM IN. RESPECTFULLY, CHIEF,
YOU HAVE SAID THAT FOR EIGHT MONTHS NOW. 
          SO NEXT MONTH, BRING THE VENDOR, BRING A TIMELINE AND SHOW US HOW YOU'RE GOING TO ACTUALLY
GET IT COMPLETED BY NEXT FEBRUARY. 
          SO THEY DID GIVE US A TIMELINE. THEY PUSHED THE DATE TO FEBRUARY 28TH OF 2027,
AND THAT'S WITH RUNNING TWO CREWS AND POSSIBLY BRINGING IN A THIRD OR MORE CREW CREWS. AND THEY GAVE US A TIMELINE OF IMPLEMENTATION. 
          AND THEY DO HAVE SOME RISKS WITH POSSIBLE SHIPPING DELAYS OR BACKORDER. 
          I'M SORRY, THEY HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THIS FOR AT THIS POINT YEARS. 
          AND I DON'T CARE IF THEY HAVE 20 CREWS. THEY'RE A VERY LARGE COMPANY AND THEY NEED TO GET
THIS PROJECT DONE. 
          THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. SO PULL THIS OFF THIS THIS BRIEFING. 
          IT'S GOING TO BE IT'S OWN BRIEFING FOR FOREVERMORE. 
          BUT THIS IS NOT GOING TO BE A BRIEFING MEMO. LIKE I WANT THE FULL BRIEFING NEXT MONTH. 
          THIS IS THIS IS A DANGER TO OUR ENTIRE CITY AND THE AMOUNT OF MONEY WE PAY FOR FIRE
SERVICES, AND WE DON'T EVEN KNOW YOU'RE GOING TO HEAR THE ALARM. 
          IT'S JUST TRULY OUTRAGEOUS. SO THIS I MEAN, I I'VE TOLD YOU THIS FOR YEARS NOW,
LIKE, THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING THAT YOU'VE GOT TO GET TAKEN CARE OF. 
          AND IT'S LIKE IT DOESN'T EVEN MATTER. I DON'T THINK ANYONE IS TAKING IT SERIOUSLY. 
          NO, WE'RE TAKING IT SERIOUSLY. AND, YOU KNOW,
CHIEF ROSS IS OVER THAT AREA NOW AND HE'S CONSTANTLY ON HIM LIKE WE ARE TAKING IT SERIOUSLY. 
          WELL, I THINK LAST MONTH YOU SAID EVERYTHING WAS MAPPED OUT,
BUT NOW THEY'RE READY TO REALLY IMPLEMENT THEM. 
          AND TWO, TWO ADDITIONAL ONES HAVE BEEN PUT IN. 
          SO IT'S NOT HAPPENING. WELL I'LL ADDRESS IT WITH THEM. 
          THANK YOU. MOVING ON TO ITEM I. ITEM I IS THE FLEET MAINTENANCE UPDATE. 
          DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? SO MY QUESTION IS WHEN I LOOK AT LAST MONTH AND I LOOK AT
THIS MONTH SOME THINGS DON'T MAKE SENSE. 
          SO LAST MONTH ON REPAIR WE HAD TEN ENGINES, TEN TRUCKS AND 16 RESCUES. 
          [01:20:03]
IT'S A DIFFERENT NUMBER THIS TIME. AND ON ORDER WE HAD 16 ENGINES,
TWO TRUCKS AND TEN RESCUES. 
          SO THE ORDER IS THE SAME. THE NUMBER OF VEHICLES WE HAVE,
THOSE ARE ALL THE SAME. 
          SO HOW IS IT THAT IT'S SO DIFFERENT FOR REPAIR? CHIEF WILLIAMS, ASSISTANT CHIEF WILLIAMS, WOULD YOU REPEAT THAT QUESTION ONE MORE TIME FOR
ME? SO I MAKE SURE THAT I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE ASKING. I'LL TELL YOU WHAT. I'M JUST GOING TO
ASK YOU TO GO BACK AND LOOK AT IT, AND WE'LL TALK ABOUT IT NEXT MONTH. BUT WHEN I GO BACK AND LOOK AT THEM,
THE NUMBERS ARE NOT MATCHING UP. 
          SO MY QUESTION IS, ARE YOU SAYING WE HAD 12 VEHICLES IN TO,
YOU KNOW, 12 ENGINES? WE COULDN'T REPAIR TWO OF THEM. SO WE'VE JUST REMOVED THEM FROM THE MIX. 
          LIKE SOMEHOW THE NUMBERS AREN'T WORKING UNLESS YOU'RE DOING THAT. 
          IS THAT WHAT'S HAPPENING? SO WE HAVE HAD SOME SOME THAT WERE TOTALED. 
          SO IF A VEHICLE IS TOTALED THEN IT WOULD BE REMOVED FROM THE FROM FROM THOSE NUMBERS. 
          OKAY. WELL IN THE SECOND GROUP OF NUMBERS YOU DON'T HAVE FISCAL YEAR 26 ON THERE,
WHICH IS WHERE WE WOULD SEE ANYTHING THAT'S BEEN TOTALED. 
          OKAY. WE'LL WE'LL GET YOU BETTER FISCAL YEAR 25. 
          SO IF YOU CAN ADD THAT IN, MAYBE LET'S TALK ABOUT THIS ONE BEFORE IT GETS POSTED NEXT
MONTH. 
          OKAY. YES, MA'AM. OKAY. SO NEXT ITEM IS J. DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT J. 
          COUNCIL MEMBER ROTH. I. THIS REALLY IS FOR EDUCATION PURPOSES. 
          I ON J. IT SAYS THAT THE MARSHAL'S OFFICE ASSIGNS DEPUTIES TO WORK WITH THE HOMELESS
ACTION RESPONSE TEAM. 
          I'M TRYING TO UNDERSTAND THE THE NUMBERS THAT YOU'RE THAT ARE BEING IDENTIFIED HERE FOR
DECEMBER AND JANUARY. 
          WHAT WHAT IS THE JOB AND WHO'S WHAT DOES THIS REALLY REPRESENT? THESE NUMBERS REALLY REPRESENT SOMEBODY. CAN SOMEBODY HELP ME ANSWER THAT? GOOD AFTERNOON, PUBLIC SAFETY COMMITTEE. I'M INTERIM INTERIM CITY MARSHAL CLIFTON KNIGHT. 
          I'M SORRY I DIDN'T HEAR YOUR NAME OR I COULDN'T. 
          INTERIM CITY MARSHAL CLIFTON KNIGHT. THANK YOU. 
          YES, SIR. MY QUESTION IS, IS ON ON THE THE NUMBERS WHERE THE MARSHAL'S OFFICE HAS
RESPONDED TO ENCAMPMENTS AND TO UNSHELTERED INDIVIDUAL CONTACTS. 
          ARE THOSE THE SAME SAME ACTIVITIES EACH MONTH? ARE THESE DIFFERENT, UNIQUE INDIVIDUAL RESPONSES? IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S IT IS THIS IS THIS INFORMATION TELLING US THAT THERE WAS 153 UNIQUE
UNIQUE CONTACTS IN JANUARY AND 156 IN DECEMBER. ARE THEY DIFFERENT? NO, THE NUMBERS ARE CORRECT. AND THAT'S SOMETHING I WAS LOOKING AT. 
          YEAH. IT WAS JUST THREE LESS FOR JANUARY. SO AS FAR AS THE ENCAMPMENTS,
THE THE BASE THAT WE RESPOND TO. 
          SO GOING OUT WITH, WITH OEM AND WE GO TO THESE ENCAMPMENTS THAT SOME OF THOSE ENCAMPMENTS
INCLUDE CLEANING, SOME OF THEM ARE JUST VISITS WHERE OEM GO OUT AND THEY'RE THEY ARE TALKING TO THESE
INDIVIDUALS OR OFFER THEM SERVICE. 
          SO THE MONTH OF DECEMBER WAS 156. SO THE MONTH OF JANUARY WAS 153. 
          SO ARE YOU GOING THERE AS A DEPUTY? ALONG WITH THE HOMELESS ACTION RESPONSE TEAM OR THESE
INDIVIDUAL CALLS THAT YOU'RE GOING OUT THERE SEPARATELY JUST TO BECAUSE YOU'VE GOT A COMPLAINT OR
YOU'VE GOT AN ISSUE WITH ONE INDIVIDUAL KNOW THEY'LL BE WITH THE RESPONSE TEAM, SIR. SO THE RESPONSE TEAM IS GOING OUT THAT MANY TIMES A YEAR OR A MONTH. 
          YES, SIR. AND THE AND THE UNSHELTERED INDIVIDUALS CONTACTED,
ARE THOSE NUMBERS INCLUDED SOMEHOW IN, IN IN THOSE NUMBERS. ARE THESE ARE THESE NUMBERS INCLUSIVE. 
          [01:25:06]
ARE THEY DOUBLE COUNTS OR ARE THESE COMPLETELY SEPARATE INDIVIDUAL CONTACTS THAT YOU ALL
ARE MAKING? I'M I'M HAVING TROUBLE UNDERSTANDING HOW MANY PEOPLE YOU'RE TALKING TO,
HOW MANY PEOPLE YOU GUYS ARE, YOU ALL ARE, ARE ADDRESSING AND IN ENGAGING IN. 
          SO THE NUMBERS THAT YOU SEE FOR WE'LL USE THE MONTH OF JANUARY. 
          SO ACTUALLY, IF THE GUYS GO OUT TO THE ENCAMPMENT,
THE DEPUTIES. 
          SO WE WE TAKE, WE CAPTURE THE NUMBER OF INDIVIDUALS THAT ACTUALLY ARE AT THAT ENCAMPMENT. 
          SO IF IT'S TEN, THE DEPUTY IS GOING TO WRITE DOWN THAT IT WAS TEN INDIVIDUALS AT THAT
ENCAMPMENT. 
          OH I SEE. OKAY. SO THIS IS GOING TO BE A GROUP COULD BE THERE. 
          IT'S NOT JUST ONE PERSON. YES, SIR. OKAY. SO THESE AREN'T INCIDENTS. 
          THESE ARE PEOPLE KNOW THERE'S JUST PEOPLE THAT ARE THAT ARE THERE AT THAT TIME. OKAY. AND
THEN ON THE ENFORCEMENT ACTION AND CITATION ARRESTS, THOSE ARE NEW AND AND INDIVIDUAL CITATIONS AND ARRESTS EACH MONTH. 
          THESE ARE NOT THIS IS NOT A RECURRENT NO, SIR GROUP OF THE SAME PERSON EVERY MONTH. 
          YOU'RE IT COULD BE, BUT IT'S PROBABLY INDIVIDUAL SEPARATE ARRESTS AND CITATIONS. 
          YES, SIR. IT IS. SO THESE ARE UNIQUE CONTACTS. 
          IS WHAT YOU'RE TELLING ME? YES, SIR. AND I HAVEN'T SEEN I RUN THE CITATION MONTHLY. 
          I HAVEN'T SEEN THE SAME INDIVIDUALS BEING WRITTEN,
A CITATION. 
          OKAY. THANK YOU. YES, SIR. DOES ANYBODY ELSE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THAT? I'D LIKE TO FOLLOW UP WITH YOU AS WELL. AND I THINK THIS IS WHAT COUNCILMEMBER ROTH WAS
GETTING TO FOR THE THE TITLE OF THE ROW IS ENCAMPMENTS SLASH DECOMMISSIONED LOCATIONS. MARSHALS RESPONDED TO. 
          AND IN DECEMBER YOU HAVE 156 AND IN JANUARY YOU HAVE 153. 
          AND IT SOUNDED LIKE YOU WERE SAYING THAT THOSE WERE NOT THE NUMBER OF LOCATIONS YOU WENT
TO. 
          IT WAS THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE YOU ENCOUNTERED. COULD YOU CLARIFY FOR THE MONTH OF DECEMBER? THE 156 IS THE NUMBER OF LOCATIONS VISIT. IT IS. 
          SO IT'S THOSE UNIQUE LOCATIONS OR DID YOU GO BACK TO SOME THEIR INITIAL LOCATION THAT
WE'RE GOING OUT WITH OEM. 
          SO WE'RE GOING OUT WITH OEM ON THOSE LOCATIONS,
AND SOME OF THEM COULD BE A REVISIT, BUT THEY'RE NOT IN THE SAME DAY. 
          SO IT COULD HAPPEN. A VISIT COULD BE THE FIRST OF THE MONTH. 
          THEN MAYBE THEY GO BACK ON THE 15TH OF THE MONTH AND AGAIN OFFER SERVICES AGAIN. 
          SO FOR JANUARY, THE 153 ARE NOT 153 UNIQUE LOCATIONS. 
          IT'S JUST THE NUMBER OF TIMES YOU VISITED AN ENCAMPMENT. 
          YES, MA'AM. OKAY. AND THEN FOR THE UNSHELTERED INDIVIDUALS CONTACTED DURING OES OPERATIONS
AGAIN IN JANUARY, YOU HAVE 298. AND YOU'RE NOT SAYING THAT'S 298 UNIQUE INDIVIDUALS. 
          YOU'RE JUST SAYING THROUGHOUT THE COURSE OF THE MONTH,
YOU TALKED WITH 298 PEOPLE. 
          YEAH, WELL, DURING THE COURSE OF THE MONTH. SO IF WE GO OUT DURING THE COURSE OF THE
MONTH, SAY, IF I WENT TO A LOCATION AND IT'S TEN INDIVIDUALS THERE,
SO WE'RE JUST GOING TO CAPTURE THOSE INDIVIDUALS. 
          SO TODAY IT MAY BE TEN, TOMORROW IS MAYBE 15. 
          SOMETIMES WE GO OUT AND IT'S 2 OR 3 PEOPLE. SOMETIMES WE GO OUT AND IT'S JUST ONE
INDIVIDUAL. 
          SO WE'RE WE JUST CAPTIONED THE NUMBER OF INDIVIDUALS THAT WE SEE ONCE WE ARRIVE ON THE
SCENE. 
          RIGHT. BUT THE THE SINGLE MAN YOU SAW TODAY,
YOU MAY HAVE SEEN HIM LAST WEEK WITH A GROUP SOMEWHERE ELSE. 
          IT'S A POSSIBILITY BECAUSE WE. YEAH. WE'RE NOT TAKING I MEAN WE'RE NOT CAPTURING NAMES OR
ANYTHING. 
          YEAH. IT'S POSSIBLE THAT COULD BE THE SAME PERSON. 
          AND THEN. ARE YOU AWARE? I KNOW YOU ARE NOT DOING THIS,
AND IT'S NOT YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO DO, BUT ARE YOU AWARE IF EVERY PERSON WHO IS BEING INTERACTED WITH IS ACTUALLY BEING ADDED
INTO THE SYSTEM? I'M NOT SURE. YEAH, I DON'T THINK SO. SO LET ME ASK YOU. 
          THERE IS A PRETTY HIGH PROFILE SITUATION WHERE WE SAW A LOT OF DPD CLEARING AN ENCAMPMENT. 
          WERE YOU THERE ALSO? AND IF NOT, HOW IS IT DETERMINED THAT DPD WOULD BE THERE VERSUS THE
MARSHAL'S OFFICE? I KNOW ON SOME INSTANCES WE DO GO OUT WITH, WITH DPD. 
          AND BASICALLY THAT'S GOING TO BE ON A BIG ENCAMPMENT. 
          BUT IT IS TIMES THAT WE WE ACTUALLY GO OUT WITH THEM. 
          BUT THE MAJORITY OF WHAT WE'RE CAPTURING IS GOING TO BE THE MARSHALS,
AND WE DEFINITELY WE USE. 
          SO IF THE MARSHALS GO OUT WITH THE HEART TEAM,
SO THE HEART TEAM IF THEY GO OUT, WE'RE GOING TO SUPPORT THE HEART TEAM WITH THE HEART TEAM FIRST. SO IF THAT THAT MARSHAL, IF IT'S A CLEANING AND THAT DEPUTY MARSHALS NEED
COVER, WE'RE GOING TO COVER THEM WITH ANOTHER DEPUTY MARSHAL. 
          SO IF IT'S A CLEANING, IT'S THE MARSHALS OFFICE AND HEART TEAM. 
          BUT AT WHAT TIME? AT WHAT POINT IS IT DPD? OR IS IT BOTH YOU AND DPD? 
          [01:30:02]
HOW IS THAT DETERMINED? I MEAN, WE GO IF IT'S A LARGE ENCAMPMENT LIKE COOMBS AGAIN,
WE PARTNER WITH DPD. 
          TO MY KNOWLEDGE, WE HADN'T TACKLED AN ENCAMPMENT THAT SIZE OTHER THAN I CAN'T THINK OF THE
ONE THAT'S OVER BEHIND THE POST OFFICE OFF NORTHWEST HIGHWAY, THE JOES CREEK. SO AGAIN, THAT WAS A PARTNERSHIP WITH DPD,
WHERE THE MARSHALS WENT OUT WITH DPD AND MULTIPLE ARRESTS WERE MADE AT THAT LOCATION. 
          AND SO WHEN YOU SAY IT'S A LARGE ENCAMPMENT,
APPROXIMATELY HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU CONSIDER IT TO BE BEFORE IT BECOMES A LARGE ENCAMPMENT? I MEAN, IT JUST DEPENDING ON ON THE FACT A LOT OF TIME. 
          THE LARGE ENCAMPMENT, I WOULD SAY LIKE COOMBS CREEK. 
          INITIALLY WHEN WE FIRST STARTED LOOKING AT THAT,
IT WAS OVER 400 INDIVIDUALS UNDER THAT BRIDGE. 
          BOTH SIDES. DID YOU SAY 400 INITIALLY? YES, MA'AM. 
          OKAY. AND THAT THAT'S BEEN A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO. 
          WE INITIALLY LOOKED AT THAT THAT ENCAMPMENT AND IT WAS OVER 400 PEOPLE IN THAT. 
          SO IS THAT WHEN THEY WERE LIKE BURNING THE THE HIGHWAY? IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT? THAT. YEAH,
IT WAS ON THE 30. AND, AND WE CLEANED THAT ENCAMPMENT AND AGAIN, ONCE WE, WE WENT OUT THERE AGAIN, WE WERE JUST TAKING SURVEILLANCE ON THAT ENCAMPMENT. 
          IT WAS ABOUT 400 WHEN WE WENT OUT THERE, IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN A LITTLE OVER 100 INDIVIDUALS
THERE BECAUSE THEY WERE SERVED NOTICE AND THEY KNEW THAT WE WERE COMING. 
          BUT SURVEILLANCE NOT TAKING ANY ACTION ON THAT ENCAMPMENT INITIALLY. 
          AND IT WAS A FEW YEARS BACK, IT WAS ABOUT 400 INDIVIDUALS AT THAT ENCAMPMENT. 
          WOW. OKAY. THANK YOU FOR THE INFORMATION. YES,
MA'AM. 
          JUST A QUICK FOLLOW UP. JUST A QUICK FOLLOW UP. 
          WHAT IS THE WHAT IS YOUR WHAT IS THE DEPUTY DOING? WHAT IS THE ROLE OF THE DEPUTY? IS IT TO SUPPORT THE HEART GROUP? IS IT FOR PROTECTION? IS IT FOR ENFORCEMENT AND CITATION? WHAT IS YOUR ROLE IN THAT? IN THAT TRANSACTION,
IN THAT, IN THAT ACTIVITY? THE ROLE IS BASICALLY IT'S FOR THE THE PROTECTION OF THE CITY WORKER AS WELL AS THE
INDIVIDUAL THAT WE'RE OUT THERE INTERACTING WITH. SO AGAIN, WE'RE THERE TO PROTECT THEM AS WELL AS PROTECT THE CITY,
THE CITY WORKERS. 
          SO YOU'RE A SO YOU'RE PART OF THE HEART TEAM. 
          SO YES, WE WE HAVE WELL, YEAH, IT'S THE HEART TEAM. 
          WE HAVE FOUR DEPUTIES THAT ARE ASSIGNED TO THE HEART TEAM THAT ACTUALLY GOES OUT WITH OEM. 
          THANK YOU. OKAY. THANK YOU. APPRECIATE IT. MOVING ON TO ITEM K. 
          THIS IS THE POLICE ACADEMY WHO HAS QUESTIONS. 
          I'LL START WITH MAYOR PRO TEM MORENO AND WE'LL GO DOWN THAT LINE. 
          THANK YOU CHAIR. IF WE CAN, ON THESE MEMOS, IF WE CAN ADD THE TOTAL FUNDING AND THE GAP
AND JUST ANY ADDITIONAL FUNDING THAT HAS COME THROUGH SO WE CAN JUST KEEP TRACK ON WHERE WE'RE AT,
AND THEN DO WE HAVE A DATE OF WHEN WE FORECAST THIS COMING TO FULL COUNCIL. 
          THANK YOU, COUNCIL MEMBER, FOR THE QUESTION. WE'LL WE'LL MAKE THAT CHANGE. 
          I THINK WE HAD BEEN DOING THAT IN THE, IN THE PREVIOUS MEMOS. 
          AND SO THIS ONE WAS FOCUSED ON A STATUS OF THE PROJECT AND WHERE WE ARE WITH THE DESIGN. 
          AND WE'LL BE HAPPY TO ADD THE, THE FUNDRAISING NUMBERS IN TERMS OF WHEN WE'RE GOING TO BE
BRINGING IT TO COUNCIL. 
          WE'RE WORKING WITH THE CITY MANAGER'S OFFICE AND THE OTHER BRIEFING ITEMS TO MAKE SURE WE
GET IT ON YOU KNOW, IN THE NEAR FUTURE. BUT WE DON'T HAVE THAT DATE AS OF RIGHT NOW,
BUT WE'LL WE'LL BE HAPPY TO UPDATE YOU. 
          THANK YOU. AND THEN AS FAR AS THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE CENTER AND THE CURRICULUM IS,
HAS THAT CURRICULUM ALREADY BEEN SET AND APPROVED BY UNT DALLAS OR IS THAT SOMETHING THAT IS STILL BEING EVOLVED,
AND IF SO, WHEN WILL THAT BE READY? I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT, YOU KNOW, WE'RE NOT WAITING FOR THE CENTER TO BE BUILT. 
          AND THEN TALKING ABOUT THE ACADEMICS BEHIND IT,
THAT WE'RE DOING THOSE CONCURRENTLY. 
          YEAH, I'LL KNOW THAT THAT JENNY AND THE DESIGN TEAM HAVE BEEN MEETING WITH THE UNT DALLAS
FOLKS TO TALK ABOUT THE CONFIGURATION OF THE BUILDING AND AND THEIR NEEDS. I'M NOT SURE IF WE HAVE THE,
THE DATE AND THE SCHEDULE FOR WHEN THEY'LL HAVE THE CURRICULUM DEVELOPED. 
          JENNY, DID YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO ADD TO THAT? EXCUSE ME,
JENNY NISWANDER, DIRECTOR OF THE OFFICE OF CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT, AND WE DID MEET WITH THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE DEPARTMENT JUST LAST WEEK. 
          AND THEY WILL BE MOVING INTO THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE BUILDING. BUT THEY ARE THEY ARE ACTIVELY
WORKING ON THE CURRICULUM NOW, BUT WE COULD CERTAINLY FOLLOW UP WITH THEM AND SEE IF WE CAN GET ANY ADDITIONAL DETAILS.
THANK YOU. 
          [01:35:04]
IS CHIEF ORTIZ ALSO, I WANT TO ADD THAT CHIEF HERRERA HAS BEEN HEAVILY INVOLVED WITH UNTD
TO DEVELOP THIS CRITERIA, THIS CURRICULUM FOR BOTH OF OUR OFFICERS AND DPD AS WELL AS WE'VE HAD INITIAL MEETINGS
WITH UNTD STAFF THAT'S GOING TO BE HOUSED IN THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE CENTER AND TALKED ABOUT WHAT WE WOULD
LIKE TO DO AS A PARTNER TOGETHER. 
          THANK YOU. OKAY. WELL, I'M JUST GOING TO SAY I HAVE BEEN VERY SPECIFIC ABOUT THE KIND OF
MEMO I'M LOOKING FOR. 
          THIS MEMO IS NOT SUFFICIENT. IT IS NOT THE FORMAT I'VE ASKED FOR. 
          IT WILL NOT ALLOW US TO PROVIDE PROPER OVERSIGHT. 
          SO LAST MONTH, YOU HAD ONE THAT INCLUDED BUDGET. 
          THANK YOU. MAYOR PRO TEM FOR MENTIONING THAT FUNDING SUMMARY. 
          THESE NEED TO BE IN EVERY SINGLE MEMO. I'M LOOKING FOR A STANDARDIZED WAY FOR US TO BE
ABLE TO TRACK WHAT'S HAPPENING. 
          A BRIEFING TO THE FULL COUNCIL IS PLANNED TO PROVIDE AN OVERVIEW OF THE SCHEMATIC DESIGN,
BLAH, BLAH. WELL, IT DOESN'T EVEN SAY WHEN. THAT IS CORRECT. 
          CHAIR. MENDELSOHN. WE HAD HOPED TO HAVE A DATE WHEN WE PUBLISHED THIS AND WE DIDN'T HAVE
IT FINALIZED. 
          AND SO WE'LL CERTAINLY FOLLOW A STANDARD FORMAT GOING FORWARD. 
          WELL, WHEN IS THAT BRIEFING COMING? WE'RE STILL WORKING WITH THE CITY MANAGER TO DETERMINE
THE DATE. 
          THAT'S WITH THE OTHER ITEMS THAT WE WANT TO BRING FORWARD FOR BRIEFING. 
          WELL, IF YOU DON'T HAVE A DATE BY OUR NEXT PUBLIC SAFETY MEETING,
EXPECT TO DO IT THEN, BECAUSE THIS IS THIS IS DRAGGING ON. 
          AND NOW I'M GETTING REALLY WORRIED. AND WE SHOULD NOT BE WORRIED LIKE THIS NEEDS A PLAN
AND NEEDS A TIMELINE. 
          THE TIMELINE IS STILL NOT INCLUDED IN HERE. IF YOU NEED TO WAIT TILL JACOBS IS UNDER
CONTRACT TO PUT A TIMELINE, PERHAPS WE NEED TO WORK WITH JACOBS FOR THEM TO HELP WRITE THIS REPORT. 
          BUT THIS IS NOT AT ALL WHAT? I'M LOOKING TO SEE WHAT WAS ACCOMPLISHED SINCE LAST MONTH. 
          IT'S A GREAT COMMENT. YOU KNOW, WE DID BRING THE CMAA CONTRACT AND APPRECIATE COUNCIL'S
MOVING THAT FORWARD. 
          AND AS YOU NOTED, THE OWNER'S REP WILL BE COMING FORWARD IN THE NEXT AGENDA MEETING. 
          AND SO THE, THE FULL DESIGN TEAM AND OTHER TEAM MEMBERS ARE GOING TO BE COMPLETELY ON
BOARD AS OF THE END OF THIS MONTH TO PROGRESS THE CONTRACT BEEN EXECUTED WITH THE CMAA. THE CONTRACT HAS NOT BEEN EXECUTED,
ALTHOUGH WE HAVE MET WITH BOTH THE CMAA AND THE DESIGN TEAM LAST WEEK SO THAT AHEAD OF THAT CONTRACT. SO WE ARE MOVING FORWARD. 
          THEY THEY HAVE THE SCHEMATIC DESIGN AND THEY ARE TAKING A LOOK AT THAT NOW. 
          SO THIS IS EXACTLY THE KIND OF THING THAT'S MEANT TO BE IN THIS MEMO. 
          WHERE ARE WE ON THAT. IT SHOULD BE IN THERE EVERY SINGLE TIME. 
          WHAT'S BEEN ACCOMPLISHED? WHAT'S COMING UP? I DON'T I DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT. 
          WE VOTED ON JANUARY 28TH. SO. BUT WHAT HAVE YOU DONE? THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PROJECT IN THE CITY. 
          AND LET ME TELL YOU, IT'S NOT THE CONVENTION CENTER,
IT'S THIS PROJECT. AND I'M NOT FEELING LIKE THIS IS THE PRIORITY THAT THAT I'M SEEING STAFF THINK IT'S A PRIORITY. FUNDING SUMMARY. 
          ANY CHANGES ON THAT? THE FUNDRAISERS HAVE SOME HIGH LEVEL MEETINGS THAT ARE HAPPENING THIS
WEEK. 
          I KNOW THAT THAT WE'RE ALL ANXIOUS TO SHARE SOME GOOD NEWS WITH THIS GROUP AND THE FULL
CITY COUNCIL. 
          BUT THAT'S THAT'S ALL THAT THAT I'M AT LIBERTY TO SHARE WITH YOU FROM THE PRIVATE
FUNDRAISERS AT THIS TIME. 
          WELL, WE ARE GREATLY APPRECIATIVE OF EACH OF THE FUNDERS THAT ARE LISTED ON LAST MONTH'S
REPORT, BUT THEY NEED TO BE IN EVERY SINGLE MONTH'S REPORT. 
          THE DESIGN PROCESS. WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH THE OWNER'S REP? BUDGET, FUNDING SOURCES EVERY SINGLE TIME FOR BUDGET. 
          WHAT OUR TOTAL ALLOCATED IS, AND THEN WHAT'S BEEN ENCUMBERED AND SPENT. 
          I MEAN, THERE'S JUST ABSOLUTELY NO WAY FOR US TO DO THE KIND OF WORK WE'RE SUPPOSED TO DO
WITH WITH THE MEMO THAT WAS PRESENTED. 
          SO. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? CHAIR MENDELSOHN. YES. 
          SO I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT I'M UNDERSTANDING. I SEE THE MEMO,
BUT WE'RE WE'RE NEEDING AN ACTUAL ACTUAL PRESENTATION. 
          CORRECT. IN THE MEMO, IT SAYS THERE'S ONE COMING TO COUNCIL,
BUT THEY DON'T HAVE A DATE EVEN. 
          DO YOU KNOW, MA'AM, DO YOU KNOW WHEN WE WOULD ACTUALLY HAVE A DATE? IT WILL BE FORTHCOMING. MARCH. APRIL. TIME FRAME. 
          [01:40:02]
WE WANTED TO GET THE REST OF THE TEAM ENGAGED. 
          WE DON'T HAVE THE SPECIFIC DATE YET ON THE FORECAST. 
          BUT YOU KNOW WE HAD HOPED TO HAVE THAT BEFORE WE PUBLISHED THE MEMO. 
          CAN YOU SHARE WHAT THE DELAYS ARE? WE WANTED TO BRING TO HAVE THE FULL TEAM IN PLACE
BEFORE WE BROUGHT THE THE MEMO OR BROUGHT THE BRIEFING FORWARD. 
          AND HOW LONG HAVE WE BEEN WAITING ON THAT, OR YOU GUYS BEEN WORKING ON THAT? WE HAVE YOU KNOW, AS I MENTIONED THE COUNCIL APPROVED THE OWNERS,
THE CMAA ON THE, THE THE LAST AGENDA MEETING, AND THEN WE HAVE THE OWNER'S REP COMING FORWARD AT THE UPCOMING MEETING
FOR YOU. 
          SO THE COUNCIL APPROVED THE DELIVERY METHOD. AND SO SINCE THE COUNCIL APPROVED THE
DELIVERY METHOD, WHAT WHAT ELSE ARE WE WAITING ON? BECAUSE SEYMOUR IS JUST A DELIVERY METHOD. 
          SO WHAT ELSE ARE WE WAITING ON? WE'RE WE'RE ADDING AN OWNER'S REP TO WORK WITH US TO MAKE
SURE WE'VE. 
          WE'VE GOT EVERYTHING LAID OUT IN TERMS OF HOW WE'RE GOING TO PROGRESS THE PROJECT MOVING
FORWARD WITH THE CMAA AND THE DESIGN TEAM. 
          OKAY, WE NEED TO TALK OFFLINE BECAUSE THERE'S NO CORRELATION. 
          I'M I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE SAYING, BUT I'M THERE'S NO CORRELATION BECAUSE I'M TRYING TO
UNDERSTAND WHAT'S TAKING SO LONG. 
          IS IT GOING TO BE MARCH OR IS IT GOING TO BE APRIL. 
          AND IT'S JUST A DELIVERY METHOD. SO THE ARE OTHER DELIVERY METHODS WHY THIS HAS NOT BEEN
COMPLETED OUT EVEN WITH THE DELIVERY METHOD. 
          THAT SHOULDN'T TAKE AS LONG AS IT'S TAKING. WE HAVE THE DELIVERY METHOD. 
          WE'RE USING THE CMAA DELIVERY METHOD. WE SELECTED THE CONTRACTOR. 
          SO THAT IS MOVING FORWARD. I THINK WHEN WE BRIEFED THIS COMMITTEE IN THE PAST,
WE TALKED ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF HAVING A FULL TEAM, THE OWNER'S REP, AS WELL AS THE CMAA. AND SO WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE WE'RE BRINGING THAT
FORWARD. 
          WE WANTED TO ALSO PROVIDE AN UPDATE ON ON THE FUNDING. 
          SO THERE'S THERE ARE SEVERAL PIECES TO MAKING SURE THAT THERE'S A COMPLETE BRIEFING. 
          THIS COMMITTEE HAS ALREADY SEEN SOME OF THE SCHEMATICS THAT HAVE BEEN PRODUCED,
AND WE WANT TO SHARE THAT WITH WITH THE FULL CITY COUNCIL. 
          THE PROJECT IS MOVING FORWARD. APOLOGIES FOR NOT CONVEYING THAT IN THIS MEMO. 
          AND WE'LL IMPROVE FOR NEXT MONTH. OKAY. SO RIGHT NOW,
POSSIBLY MARCH, POSSIBLY APRIL, BUT THERE IS NO DEFINITE IT'LL IT'LL BE BY APRIL I THINK. SO BY APRIL. 
          THAT'S A HARD APRIL. YEAH. NOT A SOFT MAYBE,
BUT A HARD APRIL. 
          APRIL. THANK YOU. OKAY, SO SPEAKING OF TIME FRAME,
ARE YOU WHEN ARE YOU EXPECTING TO DO THE GROUNDBREAKING? SO THAT HASN'T CHANGED. WE'RE STILL EXPECTING THAT TO BE IN NOVEMBER THIS YEAR. NOVEMBER. 
          AND WHEN ARE YOU EXPECTING TO HAVE THIS ACADEMY COMPLETED? I'M SORRY. THAT. WHAT? COMPLETION WE WERE EXPECTING CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS AT THE END OF
THE SUMMER. 
          NO COMPLETION O THE PROJECT. I BELIEVE IT'S SPRING OF 2028 THAT THAT DATE HASN'T CHANGED. 
          I'M SORRY. WHEN? IN 2028, THE SPRING OF 2028. 
          I DON'T HAVE THE DATE IN MY HEAD, BUT. BUT THE SCHEDULE HASN'T CHANGED FROM FROM THE LAST
TIME WE'VE PRESENTED IT. 
          OKAY. THE CITY HAS A HISTORY OF NOT MEETING OUR DEADLINES. 
          WE'RE NOT GOING TO MISS THIS DEADLINE. WE'RE NOT. 
          AND IF THIS HAS TO BE THE FIRST ITEM, INSTEAD OF RECRUITING,
IT WILL BE. 
          WE'RE NOT MISSING THIS DEADLINE. AND IT DOES NOT SOUND LIKE THIS IS MOVING IN THE PACE IT
SHOULD TO SAY THE PROJECTS MOVING FORWARD. 
          WELL, OF COURSE IT IS. IT'S MOVING FORWARD WITH ENTHUSIASM AND LOVE. 
          BUT IT DOES NOT SEEM TO BE HAPPENING ON THE STAFF SIDE. 
          AND THAT'S GOT TO CHANGE. AND WE NEED BETTER REPORTING. 
          SO AGAIN, DESIGN PROCESS, OWNER'S REP, BUDGET,
FUNDING TIMELINE. 
          ALL OF THOSE NEED TO BE PART OF EVERY SINGLE MEMO FOR THIS. 
          THANK YOU. ITEM L HAPPY NEWS. I'M SORRY. COUNCIL COUNCIL MEMBER. 
          MAYBE IT'S OUT OF ORDER, BUT I HAD A QUESTION RELATIVE TO THE ITEM THAT'S COMING UP WITH
REGARD TO THE JACOBS CONTRACT, WHICH IS, WELL, THAT'S COMING, SO WE'RE GOING TO BE ABLE TO DISCUSS THAT ALSO. 
          YEP. THAT'S ONE OF OUR ITEMS OKAY. THANK YOU. 
          SO THIS IS HAPPY ITEM L. DOES ANYBODY HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE INCREDIBLE DONATION
COMING FROM KWIK TRIP. 
          THANK YOU. JUST A BIG THANK YOU. WE ALL LOVE YOU KWIK TRIP. 
          THANK YOU. IT REALLY IT REALLY SENDS A MESSAGE FOR US FOR HAVING COLLABORATIONS WITH
STRONG PARTNERS LIKE THAT FOR OTHER ITEMS TOO. 
          AND I REALLY PUBLICLY, I THINK WE ALL REALLY APPRECIATE THE KWIK TRIP FOR THEIR
GENEROSITY. 
          AND THIS IS A AN ADDITIONAL GENEROSITY THAT THEY PROVIDED THE CITY,
WHICH IS A COMPLIMENT TO THEM AND ALSO A GREAT BENEFIT TO THE CITY. 
          [01:45:07]
AND WE APPRECIATE THAT. ABSOLUTELY. AND I THINK ON WEDNESDAY WE'LL GET A CHANCE TO DO THIS
REALLY OFFICIALLY. 
          SO LET'S MOVE TO ITEM M. THIS IS THE OFFICE OF JUSTICE JUVENILE JUSTICE DELINQUENCY
DELINQUENCY PREVENTION GRANT. 
          ANY QUESTIONS ON THAT? THIS IS JUST A QUICK CLARIFICATION. 
          IS IS THIS GRANT DOES IT COVER ALL THE COSTS OR IS THIS JUST A,
A SUPPLEMENTAL A SUPPLEMENTAL AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS TOWARDS THE OVERALL PROGRAM? LET ME ANSWER THAT FOR YOU. 
          THANK YOU. MARTIN RIOJAS, ASSISTANT DEPUTY DIRECTOR FOR THE DALLAS POLICE DEPARTMENT. THIS GRANT IS MOSTLY COMPRISED OF SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE. 
          IT'S ONLY A PORTION OF THE OVERALL COST. AND IT DOES. 
          THERE IS A PORTION OF THIS GRANT THAT'S ALSO THAT WE RECEIVE,
BUT THEN TURN AROUND AND MAKE AVAILABLE FOR OTHER AGENCIES WHO ARE ALSO PARTICIPATE IN THIS GRANT. SO WE'RE THE REGIONAL LEAD, AND WE BASICALLY HAVE OTHER AGENCIES AROUND IN THE
REGION THAT WILL RECEIVE MONEY AND WORK, AND WE WORK WITH THEM. THEY'LL SUBMIT RECEIPTS AFTER THEY'VE HAD AN EXPENDITURE,
AND THEN WE'LL CUT THEM A CHECK FOR THE APPROPRIATE RECEIPTS. 
          SO SO THE GRANT IS LARGELY TO US, BUT THEN WE DO WORK WITH PARTNERS AND IT'S MOSTLY
SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE. 
          IT'S A PORTION OF THE OVERALL COST. THAT'S FABULOUS. 
          THANK YOU FOR THE CLARIFICATION. IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE YOU'RE TRYING TO GET SOME
ADDITIONAL FUNDS TO HELP MINIMIZE OUR CITY EXPENSE COMPLETELY AND STILL PROVIDE THE SERVICE AND THE AND THE PROGRAM THAT REALLY IS IMPORTANT TO THIS COMMUNITY. 
          THANK YOU. YES, SIR. OKAY. ANYTHING ELSE FOR ITEM M? ITEM N IS ACTUALLY TO PROVE YOUR POINT. ANOTHER GRANT. 
          THIS IS INTERNET CRIMES AGAINST CHILDREN GRANT. 
          ANY QUESTIONS ON THAT? OKAY. MOVING TO ITEM O. 
          THIS IS ACTUALLY THE JACOBS CONTRACT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT,
COUNCILMEMBER ROTH, DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? THANK YOU. FOR AGAIN, IT'S A CLARIFICATION ISSUE. 
          IT SOUNDS LIKE WE PREVIOUSLY APPROVED A A CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT WITH WHAT'S IT CALLED? SWING, SWING, SWING. SWINERTON BUILDERS AND NOW SWINERTON BUILDERS IS NOW ENGAGED. IS NOW WE'RE ASKING FOR A PROJECT MANAGEMENT
CONTRACT WITH JACOBS TO HELP THEM DO THEIR CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT. IS THAT BASICALLY WHAT'S GOING ON? THANK YOU FOR THE QUESTION, COUNCIL MEMBER. THE CONFIGURATION OF THE PROJECT TEAM IS THAT
THE OWNER'S REPRESENTATIVE WORKS FOR THE CITY. 
          THEY'RE GOING TO BE WORKING WITH US TO HELP OVERSEE THE WORK OF THE CONSTRUCTION MANAGER
AT RISK. 
          SO THINGS LIKE AS WE GET INTO CONSTRUCTION, THEY'LL BE PROVIDING SOME CONSTRUCTION
INSPECTION. 
          THEY'RE ALSO GOING TO BE WORKING WITH US ON MAKING SURE THAT AS WE GET COSTS FROM THE
CONTRACTOR, THAT THOSE COSTS ARE VALIDATED AND WHAT'S APPROPRIATE IN THE MARKET. 
          SO THEY, THEY, THEY SERVE AS OUR REPRESENTATIVE TO MAKE SURE THAT WE KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THE
MARKETPLACE SHOULD BEAR, RATHER THAN RELYING 100% ON WHAT THE CONSTRUCTION MANAGER AT RISK SUBMITS TO
US. 
          AND THIS IS A STANDARD PRACTICE. I THINK AND IT IS A BEST PRACTICE TO HAVE HAVE THIS TYPE
OF CONTRACT UNDER US. 
          AND AGAIN, THANKS FOR THE CLARIFICATION. SO THE OWNER'S REPRESENTATIVE IS GOING TO BE
JACOBS, AND SWINERTON IS THE OVERALL CONSTRUCTION MANAGER FOR THE PROJECT. 
          THAT IS CORRECT. OKAY. AND SO WAS THIS $5 MILLION BUDGETED SOMEPLACE? IS IT PART OF THE WAS IT ANTICIPATED THAT THERE WOULD BE AN ADDITIONAL CONSULTING AND AND
PROJECT MANAGEMENT LAYER? YES. THIS WAS BAKED INTO THE FUNDS. THIS WAS PART OF THE PROJECT,
THE OVERALL PROJECT BUDGET THAT WAS. 
          SO THAT WAS A LINE ITEM CORRECT. ANTICIPATED IN THOSE COSTS. 
          OKAY. THANK YOU. OKAY. SO IS THERE A PENALTY IF THE PROJECT'S DELAYED TO EITHER THE CMAA OR TO JACOBS? I DON'T RECALL. WHAT PENALTIES THERE ARE IN THE CONTRACT TO THE CMAA. BUT IN ANY CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT,
WE TYPICALLY HAVE LIQUIDATED DAMAGES FOR PROJECTS THAT ARE DELAYED. 
          [01:50:02]
HOW MUCH? I WOULD HAVE TO GET BACK TO YOU ON THAT NUMBER. 
          OKAY, WELL, I'LL DEFINITELY BE ASKING ABOUT THIS ON WEDNESDAY. 
          PLEASE HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS AS WELL AS FOR THE CMAA. 
          OKAY. BECAUSE I WANT TO KNOW WHAT WE'RE GETTING BACK IN DOLLARS IF THEY DON'T HIT THE
DEADLINES. 
          AND I'M ASSUMING THAT THE CITY IS ACCOUNTABLE FOR PROVIDING CERTAIN THINGS AT CERTAIN
PLACES SO THAT THEY CAN MEET THEIR DEADLINES. 
          AND I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT IS PART OF THE TIMELINE,
SO THAT WE KNOW THAT OUR STAFF IS PROVIDING WHAT'S NECESSARY. 
          HOW DO WE KNOW THAT WHEN THERE'S VALUE ENGINEERING REVIEWS THAT ARE HAPPENING,
THAT IT'S NOT SOMEBODY WHO JUST GRADUATED FROM COLLEGE. WHO'S MAKING THAT AS OPPOSED TO A MORE SENIOR PERSON? SO THE VALUE ENGINEERING PROCESS REQUIRES SOMEONE WHO'S CERTIFIED AS A VALUE ENGINEER
SPECIALIST IN ORDER FOR US TO BE CONSIDERED A TRUE VALUE ENGINEERING. AND SO WE WOULD BE MAKING SURE THAT THAT PROPERLY
QUALIFIED INDIVIDUALS ARE PART OF THAT PROCESS. 
          DOES THE CONTRACT SPECIFY THAT A VALUE ENGINEER SPECIALIST HAS TO STAMP IT? AGAIN, I'M NOT SURE THAT IT SPECIFIES THAT, BUT THAT WOULD BE A PRACTICE THAT WE AS A CITY
STAFF WOULD NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE WE'RE GETTING. 
          I LITERALLY WENT THROUGH THIS WITH JACOBS WHEN THEY WERE BUILDING COIT ROAD,
AND THE PERSON WHO GRADUATED THE DAY BEFORE THEY GOT THE JOB WAS MAKING DECISIONS THAT WERE NOT IN THE BEST INTEREST OF OUR CITY. AND THAT WAS LITERALLY WITH JACOBS. 
          SO I'M LOOKING TO SEE WHERE IN THE CONTRACT IT SPECIFIES THAT SOMEBODY WHO HAS EXPERIENCE
IS THE ONE WHO'S OVERSEEING THESE KINDS OF DECISIONS. 
          HAS JACOBS EVER BUILT A POLICE ACADEMY? I WOULD NEED FOR FOR THE TEAM THAT WAS PART OF THE
EVALUATION PROCESS TO SHARE THAT INFORMATION. I WAS NOT PART OF THE SELECTION PANEL,
SO I DID NOT REVIEW THEIR QUALIFICATIONS. 
          EXCUSE ME. SO JACOBS HAD QUITE EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE IN PUBLIC SAFETY FACILITIES,
AND I WOULD I DON'T REMEMBER SEEING A STANDALONE PUBLIC SAFETY COMPLEX, BUT THEY BUT THEY DID. LAW AND LAW ENFORCEMENT TRAINING COMPLEX. 
          BUT BUT THEY DID HAVE QUITE A BIT OF EXPERIENCE IN,
IN PUBLIC SAFETY IN GENERAL. 
          DO THEY HAVE DEDICATED STAFF TO THIS PROJECT OR IS THAT SORT OF A POOL SITUATION? NO, THEY DO HAVE DEDICATED STAFF. OKAY. WHAT IS STRUCTURED OVERSIGHT FISCAL ACCOUNTABILITY
MEAN? THIS IS THIS IS YOUR SENTENCE IN YOUR MEMO, CHIEF. 
          AUTHORIZING THIS CONTRACT IS IN THE CITY'S BEST INTEREST TO ENSURE STRUCTURED OVERSIGHT,
FISCAL ACCOUNTABILITY, AND THE SUCCESSFUL DELIVERY OF A VOTER APPROVED PUBLIC SAFETY FACILITY. 
          WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? STRUCTURED OVERSIGHT. SO JACOBS WILL BE IN THE ROOM WITH US WHEN WE
ARE GOING THROUGH THE VARIOUS DESIGN SCHEDULES AND THE ESTIMATES THAT THE DESIGNER WILL PROVIDE TO US. 
          AND SO PART OF THEIR RESPONSIBILITY IS TO ENSURE THAT THAT WHAT THEY'RE PROVIDING TO US OR
WHAT THE DESIGNERS PROVIDING TO US IS, IS IS ACTUALLY REASONABLE. AND YOU KNOW, SOMETHING THAT WE CAN,
WE CAN RELY ON. 
          SO IT'S A, IT'S A PROCESS THAT THEY'LL GO THROUGH TO DO THEIR OWN INDEPENDENT ESTIMATE ON
WHAT'S, WHAT'S BEING PROVIDED TO US AT THAT STAGE. BUT I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT THE COMBINATION OF
TWO WORDS MEANS. 
          STRUCTURED OVERSIGHT. THAT SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING VERY SPECIFIC OR SOME SORT OF FRAMEWORK. 
          AND I MEAN, WE'RE GETTING A MEMO THAT'S GOT A LOT OF NICE WORDS THAT HAS LITERALLY NO
INFORMATION IN IT. 
          WE HAVE NO OVERSIGHT WHEN WE GET THOSE MEMOS. 
          SO I WANT TO KNOW WHAT STRUCTURED OVERSIGHT IS. 
          SOUNDS GOOD. WHATEVER IT IS, I WOULD SAY CHAIR MENDELSOHN THE THAT THE OVERSIGHT THAT THE
TEAM WILL BE PROVIDING IS PART OF THEIR SCOPE OF WORK. IT IS A VERY STANDARD SCOPE OF WORK FOR AN
OWNER'S REPRESENTATIVE, AND THEY WILL BE PROVIDING SPECIFIC, SPECIFIC DELIVERABLES AT CERTAIN POINTS. 
          AND SO YOU KNOW, THE PHRASE STRUCTURED OVERSIGHT UNDERSTAND THAT I DON'T THINK WE INTENDED
A SPECIFIC STRUCTURE. IT IS A TYPICAL OWNER'S REP STRUCTURE. 
          [01:55:05]
SO IT'S JUST OVERSIGHT AT CERTAIN. HAD YOU JUST SAID OVERSIGHT,
IT WOULD MEAN THIS BE THE SAME MEANING? I BELIEVE SO, YES. OKAY. THE LAST PARAGRAPH BEFORE THAT,
IT SAYS THAT THEY RESERVE THE RIGHT TO NEGOTIATE A FUTURE AMENDMENT FOR ADDITIONAL PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND OWNER'S REPRESENTATIVE SERVICES RELATED TO
THE PUBLIC SAFETY COMPLEX. 
          DOES THAT IMPLY THAT THERE'S NO OTHER CONTRACT BESIDES THAT SECOND PROJECT,
MEANING THERE'S NOTHING THEY'RE GOING TO COME BACK FOR. 
          THIS IS IT. 100% IN FOR $5 MILLION. YES, MA'AM. 
          THAT'S CORRECT. SO THIS CONTRACT WILL TAKE THEM,
TAKE US THROUGH COMMISSIONING OF THE FACILITY. 
          SO IT IS IT IS THE LIFE OF THE PROJECT. AND YOU HAVE READ THE CONTRACT AND BELIEVE THAT
THERE IS NOTHING ELSE THEY CAN COME BACK FOR, BECAUSE I THINK THAT'S WHAT THEY USUALLY DO. WE WORKED EXTENSIVELY WITH THE CITY
ATTORNEY'S OFFICE ON THIS ONE. 
          AND YOU KNOW, I BELIEVE WE'VE PUT IN EVERYTHING THAT WE COULD THINK OF. 
          I CAN'T GUARANTEE THAT. BUT BUT WE DID WORK QUITE A BIT. 
          THIS ISN'T JUST A STANDARD CONTRACT THAT WE SENT OUT TO JACOBS,
SO WE DID WORK ON THIS ONE. 
          WELL, OKAY. WE HAVE TWO ATTORNEYS HERE. ARE YOU SAYING THAT THERE'S NO CONTRACT LANGUAGE
THAT COULD SAY IT DOESN'T MATTER IF WE THOUGHT OF IT OR NOT. 
          THERE IS NO MORE MONEY AND YOU WILL DELIVER THIS PROJECT BECAUSE THIS IS WHAT THEY'RE
KNOWN FOR. 
          I'M PRETTY SURE THERE'S LEGAL LANGUAGE THAT COULD BE PUT IN THERE. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE
THIS CONTRACT BEFORE WE VOTE ON IT. 
          LIKE IF I COULD GET IT TODAY SO I CAN READ IT BEFORE WEDNESDAY. 
          I THINK IT'S VERY IMPORTANT THAT THIS IS DONE RIGHT. 
          AND I'M WORRIED ABOUT IT. ANY OTHER COUNCIL MEMBER? JUST A CLARIFICATION IN THAT MEMO. IT SAYS CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT RESERVES THE RIGHT TO
CHANGE THE PRICING. 
          IS THAT WITH REGARD TO THE JACOBS CONTRACT AND THE SWINERTON CONTRACT,
OR IS THE CONSTRUCTION MANAGER, IF I UNDERSTAND IT IS SWINERTON AND THEN THE THE PROJECT MANAGEMENT IS JACOBS. 
          SO IT'S IT'S NOT JUST THE $5 MILLION, BUT IT ALSO IS THE THE OVER THE OVERREACHING
CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT CONTRACT TO OR IS THERE A CLARIFICATION ON THAT. SO SWINERTON IS GOING TO BE THE FIRM THAT WILL COME BACK
AND GIVE US THE GUARANTEED MAXIMUM PRICE, AND THAT WILL BE THE OVERALL CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT. 
          SO JACOBS WILL BE INVOLVED AS WE'RE, YOU KNOW,
DEVELOPING THE THE ESTIMATE AS WE AS WE GET CLOSER AND CLOSER TO THOSE CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS. WHAT WAS. COULD YOU REMIND US WHAT WHAT WAS WHAT WHAT KIND OF A PROJECT COST
HAVE WE ALLOCATED FOR FOR FOR SWINERTON. 
          WE'VE BEEN ESTIMATING $150 MILLION CONSTRUCTION,
$150 MILLION AND 50 FOR THEIR PROJECT FOR THE. 
          YEAH, THE GUARANTEED MAXIMUM PRICE. THAT'S WHAT OUR WHAT WE'VE BEEN ESTIMATING AND THEN
THIS. 
          SO THIS PROJECT MANAGER IS 5 MILLION TO SORT OF OUR IT'S OUR EYES AND EARS ON THE $150
MILLION PROJECT TO MANAGE CONSTRUCTION MANAGER SITUATION. 
          OKAY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. ARE THERE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ON THAT? COUNCIL MEMBER. CHAIRMAN JOHNSON THANK YOU. CHAIRMAN. 
          CHAIRMAN. MENDELSOHN. I'M CONFUSED AGAIN. SO I GUESS IT'S JUST MY DAY. 
          WE'RE GIVING THEM OUR PAINTING. WHAT IS IT FOR? 4.8 MIL OR FIVE MIL TO BE THE PROJECT MANAGER,
A PROGRAM MANAGER. 
          THEY'RE GOING TO COME ON ON BOARD AS OUR OWNER'S REPRESENTATIVE. 
          I'M SORRY. AS THE OWNER'S REPRESENTATIVE. AS THE OWNER REPRESENTATIVE? SO THEY'RE MANAGING THE CONTRACTOR, CORRECT? IT'S A AND DOUG CAN CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG,
BUT IT'S A AN ADVISORY ROLE. 
          THEY'LL BE WORKING ALONGSIDE US AS ON THE CITY'S BEHALF AS WE WORK WITH THE ARCHITECT,
THE DESIGN TEAM AND THE CMAA. 
          SO THE DESIGN TEAM IS WORKING TOGETHER WITH THE CONTRACT WITH THE CITY AT ONCE. 
          RIGHT. SO. AND IT'S SEYMOUR, NOT DESIGN BUILD. 
          SO IT'S WORKING TOGETHER WITH THE CITY. IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE SAYING? OKAY, THE THE CMR IS NOT A DESIGN BUILD. IT'S A DIFFERENT TYPE. 
          RIGHT. I KNOW THAT, BUT THE WAY SHE TALKED MADE IT SEEM LIKE IT WAS SEPARATE. 
          LIKE IT'S GOING TO BE THE CONTRACT AND THE ARCHITECT. 
          SO I'M ASKING KNOWING WHAT THE SEE MORE YOU GUYS WORKING TOGETHER WITH THE CONTRACT. 
          IS THAT WHAT'S GOING ON. THE CMR WILL BE WORKING WITH THE DESIGN TEAM TO LOOK AT THE
DRAWINGS AND DEVELOP THEIR GUARANTEED MAXIMUM PRICE. 
          [02:00:06]
WE WE'RE BRINGING ON AN OWNER'S REPRESENTATIVE TO ALSO WORK WITH US TO MAKE SURE THAT
WE'RE WE'RE BUILDING THE FACILITY IN THE MOST EFFICIENT WAY MAKING SURE THAT WE'RE GETTING THE BEST PRICING. 
          AS CHAIR MENDELSOHN SAID, THERE'S A VALUE ENGINEERING COMPONENT TO THE OWNER'S REP WORK. 
          AND SO THIS IS, STANDARD PRACTICE FOR PROJECTS THAT ARE COMPLEX TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU'RE
BRINGING IN THE RIGHT EXPERTISE, ALONG WITH WITH OUR EXPERTISE TO BE ABLE TO SAY WE ARE,
YOU KNOW, DOING EVERYTHING THAT WE CAN TO BRING THE PROJECT UP AT A HIGH LEVEL OF QUALITY AND WITHIN THE BUDGET AND THE SCHEDULE. SO THEY'RE GOING TO BE WORKING TO GIVE US A GMP,
AND WE'RE GOING TO GO BASED BASED OFF WHAT THEIR RECOMMENDATION IS FOR THE GMP. 
          CORRECT. IS THAT UNDERSTANDING CORRECTLY, THE OWNER'S REP WOULD BE WORKING WITH US AS WE
EVALUATE THE GMP TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE GETTING THE BEST GMP, JUST BECAUSE WE'VE ESTABLISHED 150 MILLION. 
          IF OUR OWNER'S REP LOOKS AT IT AND SAYS, YOU KNOW,
WE WERE LOOKING AT SOME OF THE COSTS AND WE THINK IT COULD BE DONE FOR 140 MILLION, THEN THOSE ARE THE KINDS OF ADVISORY SERVICES THE OWNER'S REP WOULD BE PROVIDING TO US. 
          OKAY. BUT. BUT THE PROGRAM MANAGER IS NOT. WHO'S MAKING THAT DECISION? CORRECT. WE'RE CALLING THIS CONTRACT AN OWNER'S REPRESENTATIVE RATHER THAN A PROGRAM
MANAGER, BECAUSE WE DIDN'T BRING THEM ON AT THE EARLY STAGE OF THE PROJECT. 
          BUT IT'S A LOT OF THE SIMILAR SERVICES THAT A PROGRAM MANAGER OFFERS. 
          SO Y'ALL CALLING THEM, WHAT'S THE WHAT'S THE TERM YOU'RE USING AGAIN? OWNERS. OWNERS.
REPRESENTATIVE. OWNERS. REPRESENTATIVE. BUT THEY ARE PRETTY MUCH DOING THE PROJECT MANAGEMENT. PROJECT MANAGEMENT FOR THIS. CORRECT. 
          THEY'RE GOING TO FULFILL A LOT OF THE THINGS THAT A PROJECT MANAGER OR PROGRAM MANAGER
WOULD DO. 
          YES. AND I'M ASKING THE SAME QUESTION THAT CHAIR MENDELSOHN ASKED,
HAVE THEY DID A PROJECT LIKE THIS BEFORE? AGAIN, I DIDN'T REVIEW THE PROPOSAL, SO I'D HAVE TO ASK SOMEBODY TO. 
          I CAN'T. I'M SORRY. I DID NOT REVIEW THE PROPOSALS FOR THE SOLICITATION. 
          SO YOU KNOW, JENNY AND HER TEAM WOULD HAVE TO RESPOND TO THAT. 
          SO THEY HAD QUITE A FEW LARGE SCALE PROJECTS IN PROJECTS OF THIS SCALE,
AND THEY ALSO HAD A LOT OF PUBLIC SAFETY PROJECTS. 
          I DON'T KNOW THAT THEY HAD A A LAW ENFORCEMENT OR POLICE ACADEMY AT THIS SCALE. 
          I CAN GO BACK AND CONFIRM THAT, BUT RIGHT. I'M I'M CONCERNED. 
          I'VE WORKED WITH THEM IN MY LAST ELECTED OFFICIAL POSITION. 
          IT WASN'T ALL POSITIVE, TO BE HONEST WITH YOU. 
          SO I'M REALLY CONCERNED. WHEN I SAW THIS, I WAS REALLY CONCERNED,
AND I MADE THAT AND THEY KNOW THAT TOO. 
          BUT I MADE THAT VERY KNOWN PREVIOUSLY. BUT THIS REALLY CONCERNED. 
          I WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK WITH SOMEONE OFFLINE ABOUT THIS BECAUSE IT'S BRINGING SOME MORE
CONCERN. 
          THANK YOU. THANK YOU. CHAIR MENDELSOHN. OKAY. 
          WELL, THEN I THINK WE'RE READY FOR OUR VERY LAST ITEM,
WHICH IS ITEM P, AND THIS IS THE MEET AND CONFER CONTRACT. 
          WHO HAS QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS? COUNCIL MEMBER ROTH. 
          I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE I UNDERSTOOD THE PROCESS. 
          HAVE. IS THIS HAS THIS BEEN CONFER CONTRACT BEEN IS THIS ONE THAT WE'VE BEEN BRIEFED ON
PREVIOUSLY? THANK YOU FOR THE QUESTION, COUNCILMAN. WE'VE HAD THE MEETING CONFER. 
          I WOULD SAY PROBABLY AT LEAST TEN, 20 YEARS OR SO. 
          AND WHAT WE'VE DONE OVER THE YEARS IS WE LOOK AT WHAT BOTH OF THE ASSOCIATIONS,
WE'RE ALL THREE FROM EACH SIDE THEY GO WITH MANAGEMENT INTO A REVIEW PROCESS OF THE CURRENT CONTRACT,
AND THEN WE WORK THROUGH WHAT IS NEEDED FOR THE NEXT CONTRACT, FROM SALARIES TO UPDATED CERTIFICATIONS TO RULES THAT THEY MAY WANT TO CHANGE. 
          AND THEN WE WORK OUT OF THAT INTO AN AGREEMENT THAT THEY HAVE TO VOTE ON AS AN
ASSOCIATION. 
          WE GET THOSE NUMBERS BACK AFTER IT'S APPROVED. 
          IT HAS TO BE APPROVED, I THINK, BY 65% OF THOSE THAT VOTE BETWEEN BOTH POLICE AND FIRE. 
          AND THEN WE BRING IT TO THE COUNCIL TO BE RATIFIED AS AN AGREEMENT. 
          AND THE REASON THERE'S ALL THESE DIFFERENT STAKEHOLDERS THAT ARE PART OF IT,
THAT'S THEIR PROCESS. 
          [02:05:03]
THAT'S THE, THE, THE OTHER SIDE'S PROCESSING. 
          THEY NEED TO GET THEIR THOSE ARE THEIR CONSTITUENTS THAT THEY HAVE TO AGREE TO. 
          YES, SIR. THEY MEET WITH THEIR MEMBERSHIP. THAT'S THEIR MEMBERSHIP REPRESENTATIVES. 
          YES, SIR. AND THEN WE THEN GET A WE GET THEN THE APPROVAL OF THEIRS. 
          IF THEY APPROVE IT, THEN WE CAN RATIFY IT OR NOT. 
          WHEN DO WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO UNDERSTAND WHAT THE DEAL IS? WHAT THIS MEMO WAS, BECAUSE IT'S PROBABLY GOING TO COME BETWEEN THE NEXT PUBLIC SAFETY
MEETING. 
          I WANT TO MAKE SURE THE COUNCIL HAD THE ABILITY TO KIND OF KNOW SOME OF THE ITEMS THAT
HAVE CHANGED FROM THE PREVIOUS AGREEMENT WHICH IS MOVING THE SALARY SURVEY COMPLETION DATE TO JUNE WANTED TO MOVE IT BACK TO WHERE WE CAN
ENCOMPASS MORE SALARIES AS WE LOOK AT THE SALARY SURVEY, ALSO ADDING A MASTER'S DEGREE PAY,
WHICH IS AROUND 400 A MONTH FOR THOSE THAT MAY HAVE A MASTER'S CERTIFICATION, AND THEN ALSO REMOVING THE THE LATERAL CAP THAT PREVIOUSLY WE WENT UP TO FIVE YEARS OF
SERVICE. 
          NOW THE LATERAL HIRES CAN BE PLACED AT THE SALARY SCHEDULE FOR THEIR FULL YEARS OF
SERVICE. 
          AND THEN FOR DPD, IT'S A IS A REMOVAL OF PERMANENT RESTRICTION DUTY PROCEDURES. 
          MOVING PD PROCEDURES FOR POLICE OFFICERS PERMANENTLY RESTRICTED FROM PERFORMANCE OF PATROL
FUNCTIONS, FROM PROGRAMS THAT CANNOT BE CHANGED DURING THE TERM OF AN AGREEMENT. 
          TO A PROGRAM THAT CAN BE CHANGED AFTER NOTICE TO THE APPLICABLE EMPLOYEE GROUPS AND A
MEETING IS REQUESTED. 
          THOSE ARE THE THE HIGHLIGHTS OF OF WHAT THIS NEW AGREEMENT WILL HAVE. 
          AND THEN OF COURSE, WE GOT TO MAKE SURE FIRST IT GETS APPROVED BY THE,
THE MEMBERSHIP FIRST. 
          WILL WE BE WOULD THIS BE ARE WE GOING TO BE APPROPRIATELY PROCESSING THIS IN AN EXECUTIVE
SESSION, POTENTIALLY. POTENTIALLY IT COULD PRIOR TO THE FEBRUARY 25TH MEETING. 
          WE WHAT? MY PLAN IS TO SEND OUT ANOTHER MEMO WITH ALL THE INFORMATION ONCE IT'S APPROVED. 
          THAT'LL BE GO OUT TO COUNCIL WITH ALL THE INFORMATION IN IT. 
          JUST WAITING TO SEE WHEN THEY RETURN THEIR RESULTS OF THEIR VOTING. 
          THEN WE'LL BE ABLE TO SEND OUT ANOTHER MEMO WITH THE UPDATED FIGURES AND EVERYTHING ELSE
IN IT FOR THE FULL. 
          WHEN DO YOU EXPECT THAT THEY'RE GOING TO DO THEIR VOTE? THEY'RE HOPEFUL FOR SOMETIME AT
THE END OF NEXT WEEK. 
          EARLY PART OF THE, THE FOLLOWING WEEK THAT THEY'LL BE FINISHING THEIR PROCESS. 
          THEY'VE MAILED OUT ALL THE INFORMATION TO THE MEMBERS. 
          THE MEMBERS HAVE TO GO THROUGH A PROCESS OF VOTING,
AND THEN ONCE THEY GET ALL THE I THINK IT'S A COUPLE DAYS THAT THEY'RE ALLOWED TO VOTE. 
          AND THEN THEY'LL GET THE NUMBERS BACK TO US AND WE'LL FIND OUT IF IT WAS APPROVED OR NOT
APPROVED. 
          THANK YOU. DID ANY OF THE ASSOCIATIONS FINISH VOTING? I DON'T BELIEVE SO. THEY THEY HAVE TO. THEY'RE. 
          I THINK THEY'RE STILL GOING THROUGH THEIR PROCESSES,
THROUGH THE TELEPHONE VOTING. 
          AND THEN THEY'LL COME TO US AND SAY, HEY, THIS IS THE NUMBER OF FOLKS VOTED. 
          THIS IS OUR PERCENTAGE. AND THEN WE'LL KNOW IF IT PASSED OR NOT. 
          OKAY. WELL, FOR EACH OF THE ASSOCIATIONS, I'D LIKE TO KNOW WHAT THE VOTE COUNT WAS AND THE
PERCENTAGE FOR YES OR NO. 
          AND TO COUNCIL MEMBER ROSS COMMENTS, WE DON'T ALWAYS GET THE DEAL POINTS. 
          WHAT GENERALLY HAPPENS IS IF THERE'S SOMETHING OBJECTIONABLE,
WE START HEARING ABOUT IT FROM, YOU KNOW, THE 5000 SWORN OFFICERS WE HAVE. AND SOMETIMES WE GET HIGH LEVEL. 
          SO I WOULD ENCOURAGE YOU TO SHARE THIS INFORMATION. 
          ONCE MORE THAN 5000 PEOPLE HAVE ANY AMOUNT OF INFORMATION,
WE'RE GOING TO HEAR ABOUT IT ANYHOW. 
          SO I'M NOT SURE WHAT THE THE SECRECY IS ABOUT WHEN PEOPLE ARE LITERALLY VOTING ABOUT IT
NOW. 
          SO WE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THAT. ARE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? OKAY. WELL THIS MEETING OTHERWISE KNOWN AS ASANA IS OFFICIALLY ADJOURNED AT 313. 
          THANK YOU.
