This request is specifically to develop a new 4-story office building and to extend the maximum height limit of 50 feet. The subject property is located at 3489 State Highway 121 and is currently zoned “CC”, Community Commercial District.]

Q 23 DASH 25, WHICH IS PAYCOM, AND AS ERICA MAROHNIC FROM OUR STAFF TO INTRODUCE THE REQUEST.

GOOD EVENING, HONORABLE MAYOR, MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL, CHAIRMAN OF THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION AND MEMBERS OF THE COMMISSION.

THIS REQUEST IS TO AMEND THE PREVIOUSLY APPROVED SITE PLAN OF CONDITIONAL USE 1822, WHICH WAS APPROVED IN 2018 TO ALLOW A BUILDING HEIGHT TO EXCEED THE MAXIMUM HEIGHT PERMISSIBLE IN THE CC COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT.

THE APPLICANT IS SPECIFICALLY PROPOSING TO CONSTRUCT PHASE TWO OF THEIR EXISTING CORPORATE CAMPUS, A NEW FOUR STORY OFFICE BUILDING AND THIS NEW FOUR STORY OFFICE BUILDING IS PROPOSED TO EXCEED THAT 50FT HEIGHT LIMIT IN THE COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT.

THE EXISTING SITE IS 13.1 ACRES.

IT'S AN ESTABLISHED CORPORATE CAMPUS, WHICH INCLUDES THE FIRST PHASE OF A 150,000 SQUARE FOOT FIVE STORY OFFICE BUILDING, A 14,000 SQUARE FOOT EMPLOYEE GYM AND A SEVEN STORY PARKING STRUCTURE.

THIS SECOND PHASE OF DEVELOPMENT IS FOR A FOUR STORY, 60 FOOT TALL BUILDING OF APPROXIMATELY 123,000FT².

AND BECAUSE IT'S PROPOSED TO EXCEED 50FT, IT'S HERE BEFORE YOU TO BE A MINIMUM OF 60FT.

AS PART OF THE SECOND PHASE, THE APPLICANT IS ALSO RECONFIGURING SEVERAL PARKING SPACES ALONG ITS NORTHWEST ELEVATION, RESULTING IN AN ADDITIONAL 23 SURFACE PARKING SPACES ALONG THAT NORTHWESTERN ELEVATION OF THE BUILDING.

THERE ARE NO OTHER CHANGES PROPOSED AS PART OF THIS CORPORATE CAMPUS TO SITE LAYOUT, ACCESS, SIGNAGE OR OTHERWISE.

THIS CONCLUDES OUR PRESENTATION.

THE APPLICANT'S REPRESENTATIVE AND ARCHITECT, MR. SEAN O'BRIEN, IS HERE THIS EVENING TO PRESENT TO YOU AND ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

WHAT YOU SEE HERE IS THE FINAL IMAGE OF WHAT WE PLAN TO PLAN TO CONSTRUCT.

SPECIFICALLY, WE'RE LOOKING AT BUILDING B TODAY, WHICH IS HIGHLIGHTED HERE.

[00:10:05]

THE OTHER BUILDINGS HAVE ALREADY BEEN CONSTRUCTED.

WE'VE GOT TO LOOK AT THE SITE PLAN HERE.

ERICA DID MENTION THAT WE ARE RECONFIGURING SOME PARKING ON THE NORTHWEST SIDE OF THE BUILDING.

WE ARE REPLACING THAT ONE FOR ONE.

THE ONLY REASON WE ARE RECONFIGURING THAT IS TO IMPROVE DRAINAGE AND IMPROVE ACCESS FROM THE FIRE LANE THAT EXISTS ON THE THE NORTHWEST SIDE OF THAT BUILDING.

WE'VE GOT A COUPLE OF LOOKS AT THE ELEVATIONS.

THE ELEVATIONS WILL MATCH WHAT IS CURRENTLY BUILDING A WITH EXCEPTION.

WE WON'T HAVE A LARGE ATRIUM FACING HIGHWAY 121.

MATERIALITY WILL BE THE SAME, HEIGHTS WILL BE THE SAME.

IT'LL IT'LL BE ALMOST A 1 TO 1.

AND THEN WE WILL HAVE A SMALL BUILDING CONNECTOR THAT CONNECTS BUILDING B TO BUILDING A.

WITH THAT, I'LL LET YOU GUYS ASK ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE.

QUESTIONS FOR MR. O'BRIEN.

QUESTIONS, SIR. NO QUESTIONS.

NO QUESTIONS, MR. MAYOR.

ALL RIGHT. QUESTIONS FROM THE COUNCIL.

IT'S VERY GRATIFYING TO SEE HOW WELL PECKHAM HAS DONE AND TO SEE THE FINAL PHASE HERE.

DO WE HAVE ANYONE WISHING TO SPEAK? NO, YOUR HONOR. DO WE HAVE ANY CORRESPONDENCE? NO, SIR. HAVE ANYONE HERE THAT WISH TO SPEAK? ALL RIGHT, MR. CHAIRMAN, WE NEED A MOTION TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.

The subject property is located at 2601 William D. Tate Avenue and is currently zoned “PID”, Planned Industrial Development District.]

ERICA MAROHNIC. THIS IS A REQUEST TO AMEND THE PREVIOUSLY APPROVED SITE PLAN OF CONDITIONAL USE 0808 FOR A PLANNED COMMERCIAL CENTER FOR AN AUTOMOTIVE DEALERSHIP WITH THE SALES AND REPAIR OF NEW AND USED VEHICLE VEHICLES.

THIS REQUEST IS SPECIFICALLY TO ALLOW A 575 SQUARE FOOT BUILDING EXPANSION ALONG THE WEST BUILDING ELEVATION.

THEY'RE ALSO PLANNING TO DEMOLISH AN EXISTING PRE OWNED SALES BUILDING AND REPLACING IT WITH PAVING FOR ADDITIONAL PARKING, NEW LANDSCAPING AND SITE LIGHTING.

THE APPLICANT INTENDS TO EXPAND THE EXISTING GRAPEVINE CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM SHOWROOM BY 575FT² ALONG THE WEST ELEVATION.

THIS WILL CONSIST OF A 362 SQUARE FOOT AREA FOR OFFICES AND NEW ENTRIES, 143 SQUARE FOOT FOR THE JEEP ENTRY AND 70 SQUARE FOOT ENTRY FOR THE CHRYSLER BRAND.

THE SITE HAS 803 PARKING SPACES TOTAL.

NO OTHER CHANGES ARE PROPOSED AT THIS TIME TO SITE CONFIGURATION OR BUILDING ELEVATIONS.

THE APPLICANT'S REPRESENTATIVE, MR. CLINTON MARLBOROUGH, IS HERE THIS EVENING TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE.

AND THIS CONCLUDES STAFF'S PRESENTATION.

THANK YOU.

GOOD AFTERNOON, MAYOR AND COUNCIL.

MY NAME IS CLINTON MARBURGER.

I'M WITH LOMA ARCHITECTURE.

WE'RE LOCATED AT 3838 NORTH SAM HOUSTON PARKWAY, EAST HOUSTON, TEXAS.

77032. AS ERIKA MENTIONED, I AM HERE ON BEHALF OF THE KEATING AUTO GROUP, THE GRAPEVINE, CHRYSLER, DODGE, JEEP AND RAM, AS WELL AS RANGE CONSTRUCTION SERVICES FOR THIS PROJECT.

SO THE FIRST SLIDE HERE IS OUR SITE PLAN.

AS WE GO THROUGH, THERE ARE FOUR DIFFERENT AREAS THAT WE'RE GOING TO LOOK AT.

THE FIRST AREA IS A SMALL ADDITION FOR A CHRYSLER ENTRY.

THE SECOND IS FOR THE JEEP ENTRY.

THIRD IS THE SMALL OFFICE ADDITION, AND THE FOURTH IS THE AREA OF THE OWNED BUILDING THAT WILL BE DEMOLISHED AND REPLACED WITH PARKING AND LANDSCAPING.

THE FIRST AREA IS THIS NEW GRAPEVINE ENTRY FOR THE CHRYSLER DODGE EXCUSE ME, AND RAM SHOWROOM.

THIS AREA IS ONLY USED FOR ENTRY INTO THE BUILDING AS THERE'S CURRENTLY NOT AN ENTRY ON THAT SIDE.

AND I SHOULD ALSO MENTION THAT THAT AREA OF THE BUILDING WILL BE INCREASING IN HEIGHT FROM 19FT 4IN TO 26FT, FOUR INCHES.

[00:15:07]

THE SECOND AREA IS FOR THE JEEP ENTRY.

SO THIS WILL BE AN ENTRY DEDICATED TO THE JEEP SHOWROOM OF THE FACILITY.

THE PARAPET HEIGHT WILL BE STAYING THE SAME ON THAT AREA.

THIRD AREA IS A NEW OFFICE AREA.

CURRENTLY, THIS IS A KIND OF WATER COLLECTION AREA, SO THEY'RE PROPOSING TO ENCLOSE IT AND ADD ADDITIONAL SQUARE FOOTAGE TO THE INSIDE OF THE BUILDING.

ALL MATERIALS WILL MATCH WHAT IS PROPOSED FOR THE NEW FACILITY.

AND THE FINAL AREA IS THAT EXPANDED PARKING.

I KNOW INITIALLY THERE WERE SOME CONCERNS ABOUT THE AMOUNT OF EMPLOYEE PARKING ON THE SITE.

WE ARE ADDING WE ARE RECONFIGURING 29 PARKING SPACES THAT ARE CURRENTLY ON THE SITE AND ADDING AN ADDITIONAL 39 SPACES.

THIS WILL GIVE EMPLOYEES 134 SPACES ON THE SITE, WHICH ACCOUNTS FOR EVERY EMPLOYEE IN THE FACILITY.

AND THAT CONCLUDES MY PORTION IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.

QUESTIONS. QUESTIONS.

NO QUESTIONS FROM THE COUNCIL.

THANK YOU. NONE.

THANK YOU. HAVE ANYONE WISHING TO SPEAK? NO, YOUR HONOR. ANY CORRESPONDENCE? YES, SIR. THERE'S ONE LETTER OF SUPPORT IN FRONT OF YOU.

The subject property is located at 1800, 1850,1900, 1950, 2040, and 2050 State Highway 121 and 2005 and 1955 Enchanted Way.]

20 3-7 SITE PLAN SP 20 3-06 AND FINAL PLATS FOR LOT ONE BLOCK ONE 121 COMMERCIAL CENTER EDITION.

MAROHNIC THIS IS A REQUEST FOR A ZONE CHANGE FOR APPROXIMATELY 16.6 ACRES FROM A CC COMMUNITY COMMERCIAL DISTRICT TO A BP BUSINESS PARK DISTRICT WITH THE INTENT TO CONSTRUCT A WAREHOUSE OFFICE DEVELOPMENT.

THE SUBJECT SITE IS LOCATED AT THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF GENESIS WAY AND STATE HIGHWAY 121, AND IT ALSO HAS FRONTAGE ALONG ITS EASTERN PROPERTY BOUNDARY ALONG ENCHANTED WAY.

THE APPLICANT INTENDS TO CONSTRUCT A 270 200 ZERO SQUARE FOOT WAREHOUSE AND OFFICE BUILDING.

THE SUBJECT SITE IS CURRENTLY EIGHT SEPARATE PLATTED LOTS AND UNPLATTED PROPERTY AND IT IS PROPOSED TO BE PLATTED INTO ONE LARGER 121 COMMERCE CENTER EDITION, WHICH IS A SEPARATE AGENDA ITEM FOR CONSIDERATION THIS EVENING.

THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT IS PARTIALLY WITHIN A PLANNED COMMERCIAL CENTER CONSISTING OF SEVEN LOTS.

THIS REQUEST WILL REMOVE APPROXIMATELY 10.9 ACRES FROM THAT PLANNED COMMERCIAL CENTER.

THE PLANNED COMMERCIAL CENTER WILL HAVE 5.35 ACRES REMAINING, AND THOSE PARTS OF THE PLANNED COMMERCIAL CENTER THAT ARE DEVELOPED ARE FOUND TO THE IMMEDIATE SOUTH AND INCLUDE THE HAMPTON INN AND SUITES, COMFORT SUITES, WAFFLE HOUSE AND SHELL GAS STATION TO THE SOUTH.

HOWEVER, THAT SAME ACCESS AT GENESIS WAY IS ALSO PROPOSED FOR CLOSURE AS PART OF THE SITE PLAN THAT'S ON YOUR AGENDA FOR CONSIDERATION.

TOTAL REQUIRED PARKING FOR THIS DEVELOPMENT IS 219 SPACES.

THE SITE PLAN IS PROPOSED SHOWS 403.

THIS DEVELOPMENT IS WITHIN THE AIRPORT IMPACT ZONE B OF MIDDLE ZONE OF EFFECT, AND THE PROPOSED USE IS AN APPROPRIATE USE FOR THIS NOISE ZONE.

ADDITIONALLY, THE COMPREHENSIVE MASTER PLAN, THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP, DESIGNATES THIS PROPERTY AS COMMERCIAL.

THE APPLICANT'S PROPOSAL IS ALSO CONSISTENT WITH THE FUTURE LAND USE MAP AND MASTER PLAN.

THIS CONCLUDES STAFF'S PRESENTATION.

THE APPLICANT'S REPRESENTATIVE, MR. MATT BACK AND CIVIL ENGINEER IS HERE THIS EVENING TO PRESENT TO THE COUNCIL AND COMMISSION AND TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE TO THE REQUEST, INCLUDING THE ZONE CHANGE AND THEIR SITE PLAN LAYOUT.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

THIS. YEAH.

GOOD EVENING, EVERYONE.

MY NAME IS GAURAV SAHAI WITH GTIS PARTNERS.

MY ADDRESS IS 3636 BELLEFONTAINE STREET, HOUSTON, TEXAS, 77025.

I'LL BE SPEAKING IN LIEU OF MATT.

I REPRESENT THE OWNER OR THE HOPEFULLY POTENTIAL FUTURE OWNER AND DEVELOPER OF THIS PROPERTY.

SO I'D LIKE TO THANK THE COMMISSION MEMBERS AND THE COUNCIL MEMBERS FOR YOUR TIME THIS EVENING AND FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SHARE A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT GTIS PARTNERS AND OUR PROPOSED PLANS.

SO JUST BRIEFLY ON GTIS, GTIS IS A 17 YEAR OLD REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT FIRM HEADQUARTERED IN NEW YORK CITY.

[00:20:02]

WE HAVE REGIONAL OFFICES THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY, INCLUDING HERE LOCALLY IN IN DFW.

WE'VE INVESTED ACROSS OUR GTAZ HAS INVESTED ACROSS MULTIPLE ASSET CLASSES AND STRATEGIES SINCE ITS INCEPTION, INCLUDING MULTIFAMILY MASTER PLANNED COMMUNITIES, HOTELS, CREDIT AND OFFICE WAREHOUSE.

CURRENTLY, THE FIRM MANAGES OVER $4 BILLION IN AUM.

AND IN OUR IN TERMS OF OUR HISTORY IN DFW, WE'VE BEEN INVOLVED IN MULTIPLE PROJECTS WITH A TOTAL CAPITALIZATION NORTH OF $300 MILLION.

AND CURRENTLY WE'RE INVESTED IN TWO PROPERTIES WITH A CAPITALIZATION NORTH OF $160 MILLION.

ONE OF THOSE PROPERTIES IS IN FACT A OFFICE WAREHOUSE DEVELOPMENT THAT WE JUST RECENTLY COMPLETED IN IN NORTH FORT WORTH.

OUR INVESTORS INCLUDE SOME OF THE WORLD'S LARGEST PENSION FUNDS AND ENDOWMENTS.

AS SUCH, WE ARE A LONG TERM INVESTOR, A LONG TERM DEVELOPER AND A LONG TERM HOLDER OF OUR PROPERTIES.

SO I DO WANT TO EMPHASIZE THIS POINT.

WE ARE NOT A MERCHANT CAPITAL GROUP THAT ACQUIRES LAND, DEVELOPS A BUILDING AND FLIPS OUT OF IT.

OUR INTENT HERE IS TO GET THE ZONING APPROVED, DEVELOP THE PROPERTY AND OWN IT AND OPERATE IT IN THE LONG TERM, WHICH IS VERY MUCH ALIGNED AGAIN WITH OUR CAPITAL, WHERE WE LOOK FOR BEST IN CLASS OPPORTUNITIES TO DELIVER BEST IN CLASS DEVELOPMENTS.

SO SPEAKING OF DEVELOPMENTS, THIS 272,000 SQUARE FOOT SINGLE BUILDING OFFICE WAREHOUSE PROJECT IS SOMETHING THAT WE THINK IS A REALLY AMAZING OPPORTUNITY TO DELIVER THE RIGHT KIND OF PRODUCT IN THE RIGHT LOCATION AND CANDIDLY IN A PREMIER LOCATION WITH IMMENSE VISIBILITY.

SO IT'S SOMETHING WE'RE VERY GENUINELY EXCITED ABOUT IT.

WE BELIEVE THAT ONCE DEVELOPED, THE TOTAL CAPITALIZATION OF THE PROJECT WILL BE ROUGHLY $48 MILLION.

AND AS IT RELATES TO THE ZONING CHANGE, WE ARE REQUESTING THE BUSINESS PARK.

THERE ARE NO CONDITIONAL USES ASSOCIATED WITH OUR EXCUSE ME, WITH OUR REQUEST.

OUR REQUEST LINES UP WITH THE BP ORDINANCE SIMILAR TO THE ZONING CASE LAST YEAR FOR THE PROPERTY TO THE NORTH.

AND SO JUST TO REITERATE THIS POINT, WE ARE GOING TO ALIGN WITH THE BP STANDARDS.

THERE IS NO OUTDOOR STORAGE OR ANYTHING OF THAT NATURE ASSOCIATED WITH THIS WITH THIS PROJECT.

THE PROJECT IS A SPECULATIVE DEVELOPMENT.

SO I CANNOT DEFINITIVELY TELL YOU HOW MANY JOBS IT WILL CREATE.

WHAT I CAN TELL YOU IS THAT WE'VE DESIGNED IT FOR MAXIMUM FLEXIBILITY AND WE BELIEVE THE LOCATION, THE PRODUCT TYPE AND THE FLEXIBILITY THAT WE OFFER WILL BE ATTRACTIVE TO A MULTITUDE OF TYPES OF TENANTS IN THE AREA.

RECENTLY, WE'VE SEEN A LOT OF INTEREST FOR GROUPS SIMILAR TO BUILDING SUPPLY FIRMS THAT NEED SHOWROOM SPACE, SIMILAR TO SOMEWHAT WHAT THE TRADE GROUP DID TO THE EAST OF THE PROPERTY.

WE'VE ALSO SEEN A LOT OF INTEREST FROM TELECOM, TELECOM GROUPS, RENEWABLE FOCUSED GROUPS THAT ARE NEEDING WAREHOUSING AND OFFICE COMPONENTS.

AND THEN WE'VE ALSO SEEN QUITE A BIT OF DEMAND FOR LIGHT ASSEMBLY TYPE SPACES FOR HIGH END FINISHED PRODUCTS, ALL OF WHICH WE BELIEVE WILL FIT VERY NICELY IN THE BP ZONING AND WE THINK WOULD BE A A GOOD, GOOD ASSET FOR THE CITY OF GRAPEVINE GOING FORWARD.

ADDITIONALLY, IN TERMS OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS, WHILE THIS ISN'T ALL ENCOMPASSING SOME OF THE THINGS THAT WE WILL WE DO PLAN TO DO IS OBVIOUSLY DELIVER THE BUILDING WITH CLERESTORY WINDOWS AROUND THE PROPERTY TO ALLOW FOR NATURAL LIGHTING.

WE PLAN TO USE LOCALLY SOURCED MATERIALS WHERE AVAILABLE.

WE PLAN TO DESIGN AND IMPLEMENT INFRASTRUCTURE FOR FUTURE EV CHARGERS AND WE WILL DEFINITELY IMPLEMENT LOW FLOW WATER AND PLUMBING FIXTURES AND AGAIN, NOT ALL ENCOMPASSING, BUT JUST SOME OF THE THINGS THAT WE WOULD FOCUS ON.

SO TO JUST WRAP UP, I'D LIKE TO THANK YOU ALL AGAIN FOR THE OPPORTUNITY.

I WOULD REITERATE THIS IS SOMETHING WE'RE VERY EXCITED TO DO.

WE REALLY VERY MUCH HOPE TO BE A LONG TERM BUSINESS RESIDENT IN THE CITY OF GRAPEVINE.

AND SO WITH THAT, THANK YOU AGAIN FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION.

I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE.

ALL RIGHT, MR. CHAIRMAN, QUESTIONS OVER HERE.

THEN GIVE US A YOU DON'T HAVE A TENANT, BUT CAN YOU GIVE US A ROUGH IDEA OF HOW MUCH YOU EXPECT TO BE OFFICE VERSUS THE WAREHOUSING PART? YEAH. SO IF YOU LOOK AT WHAT WE'VE DESIGNED, WE'VE WE'VE GOT ALMOST 400 OFFICE PARKS.

I'D SAY, YOU KNOW, THE, THE ZONING ORDINANCES REQUIRE 219.

I THINK THAT EQUATES TO ROUGHLY A 10% OFFICE FINISH OUT.

I WOULD SAY THAT'S THE MARKET ROUGHLY.

BUT WHAT WE WANTED TO DO AGAIN WAS DESIGN FOR FLEXIBILITY AND HAVE THAT ADDITIONAL PARKING.

SHOULD WE FIND A TENANT THAT HAS A REQUIREMENT FOR MORE JOBS OR SOMETHING OF THAT NATURE? THANK YOU. YOU MENTIONED ABOUT EV CHARGERS.

DO YOU HAVE ANY DESIGNATED ON YOUR PLAN?

[00:25:03]

WE DON'T AT THIS TIME, BUT ONCE WE GET INTO FULL DESIGN, WE WILL HAVE THAT INFRASTRUCTURE.

WE DO FEEL LIKE IT'S BECOMING MORE AND MORE CRITICAL FOR THESE KINDS OF FACILITIES.

I KNOW IN THE BRIEFING SESSION THERE WAS SOME DISCUSSION BY STAFF THAT YOU HAD INDICATED THERE WOULD NOT BE ANY NOT BE ANY OVERNIGHT PARKING OF TRUCKS.

IS THAT CORRECT? OUR PLAN IS TO ABIDE BY THE ZONING.

THERE IS NO OUTDOOR STORAGE THAT WILL ALLOW TRAILERS TO BE ON SITE.

THAT WASN'T MY QUESTION.

I'M ASKING ABOUT TRUCKS.

LARRY, COULD YOU PULL YOUR MIC A LITTLE CLOSER? YEAH, I WAS ASKING ABOUT VEHICULAR OVERNIGHT.

TRUCKS OVERNIGHT KEPT ON THE SITE.

YEAH. I MEAN, I BELIEVE OUR PLAN IS TO ALIGN WITH THE BP STANDARDS AND THAT WILL BE ENFORCED BY OUR LEASES IF THAT IS IN FACT A REQUIREMENT BY THE BP STANDARDS AND THAT WILL BE ENFORCED. OKAY. BUT THAT WASN'T A DISCUSSION YOU HAD WITH STAFF.

THAT WAS NOT A SEPARATE ITEM THAT WE HAD INDICATED WE WERE DOING.

WHAT WE HAD INDICATED IS WE WOULD NOT DO ANY OUTDOOR STORAGE UNLESS I'M MISUNDERSTANDING WHAT STAFF HAD REQUESTED OF US.

NO OTHER QUESTIONS. OKAY, MAYOR.

QUESTIONS FROM THE COUNCIL.

MS.. MAROHNIC, MAY I ASK YOU A QUESTION, PLEASE? IS THE OUTDOOR STORAGE INCLUDE THE OVERNIGHT PARKING OF 18 WHEELERS ON THE SITE? YES, MA'AM, IT DOES. OKAY.

SO THEY WOULD BE PRECLUDED, CORRECT? OKAY, SIR. SO YOU DO DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT THE REASON I BRING THIS UP IS BECAUSE I RECEIVED A PHONE CALL FROM ONE OF THE OWNERS OF THIS SITE ASKING HOW I FELT THE CITY WOULD VIEW THE ZONING ON THE PROPERTY SINCE I OWNED THE PROPERTY JUST TO THE NORTH OF THIS THAT YOU REFERENCED A MINUTE AGO THAT SOLD LAST YEAR.

AND I ASKED HIM ABOUT THE OVERNIGHT PARKING OF 18 WHEELERS AND IF THIS WAS GOING TO BE AN E-COMMERCE USE OR A FULFILLMENT CENTER.

HE SAID, WELL, THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE TENANTS IDENTIFIED YET.

POSSIBLY IT WOULD, BUT POSSIBLY IT WOULD NOT.

AND I DISCUSSED THE OVERNIGHT PARKING OF 18 WHEELERS WITH HIM BECAUSE THE TRADE GROUP THAT'S OUT THERE, YOUR NEIGHBOR TO THE EAST, HAS SET THE BAR VERY HIGH.

WHEN THEY DEVELOP THEIR PROPERTY AND THERE IS NO OUTSIDE PARKING OF 18 WHEELERS.

THE PROPERTY THAT WAS OWNED TO THE NORTH HAD THAT SAME RESTRICTION PUT ON IT AND THE SALES CONTRACT.

AND SO IT WILL LOOK AND HAVE A VERY NICE APPEARANCE TO THAT'S WHY IT IS OF INTEREST APPARENTLY TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION AND CERTAINLY TO ME THAT WE MAINTAIN THAT STANDARD OUT THERE.

SO SINCE I NOW KNOW THAT OUR ZONING ORDINANCE WILL PRECLUDE THE OVERNIGHT STORAGE OR PARKING OF 18 WHEELERS, I THINK THAT THIS COULD BE A VERY SUITABLE DEVELOPMENT OUT THERE AND FIT IN VERY NICELY. SO THANK YOU FOR AGREEING TO RECOGNIZE THAT REQUIREMENT.

I APPRECIATE THAT. AND THE ONLY THING I WANT TO ADD IS I WANT TO MAKE SURE YOU KNOW THAT WE HAVE A MORATORIUM ON CHARGING STATIONS.

I UNDERSTAND. I'M SURE YOU WERE AWARE.

YEAH. I MEAN, AND TO JUST LET ME CLARIFY THAT ONE POINT.

WE PLAN TO IMPLEMENT THE INFRASTRUCTURE FOR IT AND OBVIOUSLY WOULD COME BACK AT A LATER DATE IN TIME IF THAT IS SOMETHING THAT YOU GUYS WILL ALLOW FOR.

BUT WE DEFINITELY WANT TO PLAN FOR IT AND HAVE THE INFRASTRUCTURE PUT IN BECAUSE AGAIN, WE ARE A LONG TERM OWNER.

WE WANT TO PLAN FOR THE FUTURE.

SO WE WILL TAKE SOME EXTRA STEPS TO MAKE SURE WE AGAIN HAVE MAXIMUM FLEXIBILITY.

THANK YOU. DO YOU HAVE DO YOU HAVE ANY SPECIFIC TENANTS IN MIND OR TARGETED TENANTS AT THIS TIME, SIMILAR TO THE EXAMPLES THAT WE GAVE YOU? I MEAN, ONE OF THE MOST ATTRACTIVE ASPECTS OF THIS AREA, OBVIOUSLY, IS JUST THE MULTITUDE OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF USERS THAT WANT TO BE IN IT BECAUSE OF ITS CENTRAL LOCATION. SO THERE ISN'T A SPECIFIC TENANT THAT WE'VE HAD ANY DIALOG WITH AT THIS POINT.

BUT I THINK AS YOU LOOK AT THE TYPICAL TENANTS THAT ARE IN THESE SPACES, WHETHER IT'S BUILDING SUPPLIES, FIRMS EXCUSE ME, OR THE ANCILLARY OFFICE USES FOR LABORATORIES, THINGS LIKE THAT, ALL OF THOSE WOULD BE ATTRACTIVE TENANTS FOR US, I THINK FOR GRAPEVINE.

BUT TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION SPECIFICALLY, WE DON'T HAVE ANYONE SPECIFICALLY IN MIND AT THIS POINT IN TIME.

ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

THANK YOU. DO WE HAVE ANYONE REGISTERED TO SPEAK? NO, YOUR HONOR. ANY CORRESPONDENCE? NO, SIR, WE DON'T. ALL RIGHT, MR. CHAIRMAN. MOTION TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.

THIS CONCLUDES STAFF'S PRESENTATION.

THANK YOU.

GOOD EVENING. I'M NATHAN CHANDLER, ONE OF THE OWNERS OF SAMMY'S CARWASH.

AND AT 2709 DERBY COURT IN SOUTHLAKE, TEXAS.

MY PARTNER AND I BOTH GREW UP IN THE AREA, AND WE HAVE FIVE OTHER LOCATIONS IN DFW.

WE'RE EXCITED ABOUT THIS ONE BECAUSE IT IS CLOSEST TO OUR HOUSES.

IT'S ABOUT FIVE MINUTE DRIVE FOR US AND THE NEAREST TO US RIGHT NOW IS ABOUT 25 MINUTES AWAY.

SAMMY'S IS A MEMBERSHIP BASED STATE OF THE ART EXPRESS CARWASH.

EXPERTS RECOMMEND BI MONTHLY CAR WASHING TO MAINTAIN VALUE, CONDITION AND SAFETY OF VEHICLE.

THE DEMAND FOR THESE THESE CAR WASHES IS DRIVEN BY MOVE IN CONSUMERS.

ABOUT 75% OF PEOPLE NOW USE PROFESSIONAL CAR WASHES VERSUS WASHING AT HOME.

THE WASHES ARE BETTER, USE LESS WATER, RECYCLE WATER, USE BIODEGRADABLE SOAP AND YOU CAN BE DONE IN ABOUT TEN MINUTES.

OUR SITES ARE OPEN FROM 8 TO 8.

WE HAVE FULL UNIFORMED STAFF.

IT'S A GREAT OPPORTUNITY FOR HIGH SCHOOL KIDS TO LEARN TO WORK IN A PROFESSIONAL ENVIRONMENT.

AND WE.

WE CLOSED THE SITE DOWN AFTER HOURS.

MONITORED BY SECURITY CAMERAS AT ALL TIMES.

A LOT OF THE TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCES IN THE CAR WASH INDUSTRY HAVE LED TO THE QUICKER TIME ON AND OFF OF THE SITE.

THE BIODEGRADABLE SOAP THAT'S USED AND AND THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE IS AT HOME WASHES USES 150 TO 250 GALLONS OR EXPRESS WASH JUST USES ABOUT 15 TO 30 GALLONS.

WE WE HAVE OPPORTUNITIES THROUGH OUR WASH TO PARTNER WITH COMMUNITY PROGRAMS AND YOUTH SPORTS,

[00:35:02]

THINGS LIKE THAT.

WE HAVE GOOD FUNDRAISING OPPORTUNITIES THAT THAT THROUGH THE SIGN UP TO USE THE CAR WASH, WE ARE ABLE TO BENEFIT SOME OF THOSE PROGRAMS AND I'M AVAILABLE IF YOU GUYS HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS.

I WILL SAY ONE OTHER THING.

WE ARE AWARE THAT THERE WAS SOME OPPOSITION.

WE DID MEET WITH ALL THE NEIGHBORS AND AND THE ON SITE PERSONNEL IS ALL EXCITED ABOUT HAVING THE CAR WASH THERE.

SO WE DIDN'T GET APPARENTLY TO THE PEOPLE THAT GOT THE NOTICES MAILED TO THEM.

QUESTIONS FOR MR. CHANDLER.

ANYBODY HERE? QUESTIONS OVER HERE.

YEAH. CAN YOU EXPLAIN HOW THE CARS WILL COME INTO THE CAR, WASH OFF OF WOOD AND WHAT THAT PROCESS LOOKS LIKE? YES, MA'AM, THEY WOULD.

IF THEY'RE TURNING LEFT, THEY WOULD TURN INTO THERE'S A THERE'S A MEDIAN CUT ON IRA WOODS AND THEY WOULD COME IN BETWEEN THE REHAB FACILITY AND THE CAR WASH.

AND THEN THEY WOULD THEY WOULD TURN INTO THE THERE'S THREE LANES THAT GO TO PAY STATIONS.

AND THEN THOSE THREE LANES COME INTO ONE LANE THAT ENTERS THE TUNNEL.

AND THEN AFTER LEAVING THE TUNNEL, THEY DRIVE INTO THE VACUUM AREAS IF THEY WANT TO ITS SELF VACUUM.

AND SO SOME PEOPLE LEAVE RIGHT AFTER THE TUNNEL, BUT THEY HAVE THE OPTION OF USING THE VACUUM SYSTEM.

MEMBERS OKAY, SO HOW DO THEY EXIT THE TUNNEL? LIKE, IS THERE A HARD RIGHT? IT'S ON TO THAT. IT'S ON TO THAT ACCESS DRIVE.

YES, MA'AM. AND WILL YOU HAVE EMPLOYEES DRAWING AT THE END? NO, MA'AM. AND WHERE WILL YOUR EMPLOYEES BE? WE HAVE EMPLOYEES AT THE PAY STATIONS, ONE AT THE OFFICE THAT DEALS WITH KIND OF THE CLERICAL WORK OF THE WASH.

AND THEN WE HAVE A FLOATER THAT PICKS UP THE VACUUM AREAS AND IF ANYBODY NEEDS ANY ASSISTANCE.

THANK YOU. NO OTHER QUESTION.

MR.. COUNCIL.

I JUST WANTED TO MAKE A COMMENT.

I'M AT DANCING RIVER VISITING PEOPLE THERE PROBABLY 3 OR 4 TIMES A WEEK, AND THAT'S A VERY DIFFICULT PLACE TO PULL OUT OF.

THE CARS FLY ON AIRY WOODS THERE AND THERE'S A BIT OF A RISE COMING FROM COLLIERVILLE.

AND SO MANY TIMES YOU KIND OF HAVE TO JUST JUMP OUT THERE AND TRY TO GET OUT THERE BECAUSE BEFORE THE TRAFFIC COMES.

SO IT'S IT'S NOT A REAL EASY PLACE TO GET IN AND OUT THERE.

I JUST HAVE TO SAY, IF YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE A LOT OF CARS COMING IN AND OUT OF A CAR WASH.

CAR WASH, IT'S JUST SOMETHING YOU YOU JUST NEED TO BE AWARE OF.

IT'S JUST NOT AN EASY SPOT.

SO. SO WILL THIS BE A SITUATION WHERE FOR THE VACUUMS, THEY'RE CONTINUOUSLY RUNNING AND THE PEOPLE CAN JUST PULL IN THERE AND THEY'RE ALWAYS ON, AT LEAST DURING THE DAY, THE VACUUMS TURN ON WHEN YOU PULL THEM OUT OF THE SLOT.

OKAY. AND THEN, YEAH, AT NIGHT WE ACTUALLY TAKE THEM COMPLETELY DOWN SO THEY'RE NOT EVEN USABLE AFTER HOURS.

OKAY. AND THEN HOW LATE INTO THE EVENING WOULD YOU ARE YOU ANTICIPATING OPERATIONS? 8:00. OKAY.

WHAT'S WHAT'S YOUR AVERAGE CAR COUNT AT YOUR OTHER LOCATIONS LIKE DURING THE WEEK AND A WEEKEND? YEAH. WE HAVE A SITE THAT LAYS OUT VERY SIMILAR TO THIS ONE IN HASLETT.

AND I THINK OUR TOP OUR WE'VE EVER HAD WAS JUST UNDER 100 CARS.

OUR TYPICAL AND OUR BUSY TIMES ARE KIND OF NIGHTS AND WEEKENDS.

OUR TYPICAL TIME IS USUALLY ABOUT 35 CARS AN HOUR.

WE BUILD IT AND WE HAVE WE HAVE A SIZED TO FIT THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT, BUT IT'S SELDOM IS, AS YOU KNOW, FROM THE OTHER WASHES LIKE THIS THAT ARE ALREADY HERE IN GRAPEVINE.

OKAY. ANY OTHERS? PARDON ME? ANY OTHERS? ALL RIGHT. APPARENTLY. THANK YOU.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH. WE HAVE ANYONE WISHING TO SPEAK, SIR? DO WE HAVE ANY CORRESPONDENCE? YES, SIR. THERE'S THREE LETTERS OF OPPOSITION BEFORE YOU.

WE HAVE A PETITION THAT INVOKES THE SUPERMAJORITY.

THERE'S NOT A PETITION, BUT THOSE THREE LETTERS DO BRING IT UP TO THE 20%.

YES, SIR. THE THREE LETTERS IN OPPOSITION EQUAL UP TO 20% OF THE LAND AREA WITHIN 200FT OF THE PROPERTY.

SO, YES. SO IT DOES REQUIRE A SUPERMAJORITY.

YES, SIR. ALL RIGHT.

OKAY. THAT CONCLUDES THE PUBLIC HEARING.

MOTION TO CLOSE IS IN ORDER.

MR. CHAIRMAN, I NEED A MOTION TO CLOSE.

MOVE TO CLOSE THE HEARING.

SECOND. ALL IN FAVOR? MOTION CLOSED. THE MOTION FROM THE COUNCIL.

MOVE TO CLOSE. SECOND, ALL IN FAVOR OF HEARING IS CLOSED.

WE NOW SEPARATE THE PLANNING ZONING COMMISSION MOVES TO THE RIGHT.

THAT'S A PUBLIC MEETING.

YOU'RE INVITED TO PARTICIPATE.

IF YOU'D LIKE, YOU CAN REMAIN HERE AS THE COUNCIL CONSIDERS THE REMAINDER OF ITS AGENDA.

[00:40:12]

IT'S NOT WHERE IT NEEDS TO BE.

WRONG PLACE.

SAYS SOME COMMENTS, AS WE NORMALLY DO.

DO WE HAVE ANY TONIGHT? NO, SIR, I DO NOT.

DID WE HAVE ANYONE HERE THAT HAS FAILED TO REGISTER THAT WISH TO SPEAK ON CITIZEN COMMENTS? APPARENTLY NOT.

ALL RIGHT. THEN WE GO TO ITEM NINE.

[9. Mayor Tate to recognize members of the Grapevine Fire Department for their lifesaving efforts of Gregory Ennis on June 2, 2023.]

WE WILL NOW RECOGNIZE CHIEF BROWN OF THE GRAPEVINE FIRE DEPARTMENT, WHO'S HERE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE LIFE SAVING EFFORTS OF GREGORY ENNIS ON JUNE THE 2ND, 2023.

CHIEF BROWN. YES, SIR.

MAYOR, COUNCIL, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY.

WE HAD A WHOLE HOST OF FIREFIGHTERS, AS YOU SAW, AND UNFORTUNATELY, WE HAD A STRUCTURE FIRE CALL, SO THEY HAD TO RUN OUT.

I DON'T THINK IT'S ANYTHING SERIOUS.

SO MAYBE SOME OF THEM WILL GET BACK HERE.

BUT IT WAS OUT TOWARDS VISTA RIDGE OR VALLEY RIDGE, I'M SORRY, OUT TOWARDS THE MILLS MALL.

AND ANYWAY, I DON'T KNOW IF THEY'LL MAKE IT BACK, BUT WE'RE HERE TONIGHT TO BECAUSE WE HAVE SOME LIFE CHANGING LIFE SAVING HEROES WITH US. AND I STILL HAVE A COUPLE BACK HERE AND WE'LL JUST LEAN ON THEM A LITTLE BIT MORE.

YOU KNOW, I'VE ALSO OFTEN CALLED OUR MEMBERS BIRTHDAY EXTENDERS.

AND YOU SEE THESE MEMBERS GAVE DR.

ENNIS A CHANCE TO ATTEND MORE HOLIDAYS.

BIRTHDAYS AND FAMILY EVENTS IS WHAT THEY DID.

THE RECOGNITION TONIGHT IS FOR THE FOLLOWING MEMBERS OF THE GRAPEVINE ALARM OFFICE AND THE GRAPEVINE FIRE DEPARTMENT.

AND THERE'S ALSO ONE MORE SIGNIFICANT PERSON THAT PLAYED A THE MOST PROBABLY THE MOST IMPORTANT ROLE IN THIS.

AND I'LL RECOGNIZE HER IN JUST A MOMENT.

OUR DISPATCHERS, ELIZABETH PICKETT AND NOEL DORGAN, OUR MEMBERS OF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT, TRAVIS WHEELER, MATT PLUME, JARED IRBY, RYAN WRIGHT, JARED HARDING, JIMMY LOFTON, EVAN GARRETT AND ZACHARY HALL.

AND YOU MIGHT SAY, WOW, THAT'S A LOT OF PEOPLE.

BUT ANYTIME WHAT WE FOUND AND THROUGH OUR SUCCESS, WE SEND TWO ENGINE COMPANIES IN AN AMBULANCE COMPANY.

EVERY TIME WE HAVE A CARDIAC ARREST CALL BECAUSE WE DON'T WANT ANYTHING TO GET IN THE WAY OR HINDER US FROM BEING ABLE TO PUT EVERY BIT OF LIFE SAVING FOCUS ON THAT PATIENT AT THAT POINT IN TIME.

SO THAT'S WHAT WE FOUND.

IT TAKES IT TAKES PEOPLE.

ON JUNE 2ND, 2023, WE WERE CALLED TO THE HOME OF DR.

GREGORY ENNIS, DR.

ENNIS WIFE, AND THAT'S WHO THE SIGNIFICANT PERSON IS.

AND JUST LISTEN TO THIS STORY.

HEARD SOMETHING IN THE OTHER ROOM AND INVESTIGATED.

SHE SAW HER HUSBAND LYING ON THE FLOOR AND WHEN SHE CHECKED ON HIM, HE DIDN'T HAVE A PULSE AND WASN'T BREATHING.

WHEN WE ARRIVED, SHE WAS PERFORMING CARDIOPULMONARY RESUSCITATION, CPR, FOLKS, THE CREW CONTINUED CPR AND BEGAN THEIR ADVANCED LIFE SUPPORT, AS THEY ALL DO, WITHOUT FAIL.

AFTER ONE SHOCK FROM THE DEFIBRILLATOR, DR.

ENNIS REGAINED THE PULSE AND BEGAN BREATHING ON HIS OWN.

HE WAS THEN TRANSPORTED TO BAYLOR, SCOTT AND WHITE.

AND WHILE IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THAT DR.

ENNIS DIDN'T REGAIN CONSCIOUSNESS IN THE AMBULANCE, HE DID LATER AT THE HOSPITAL.

BUT I CAN'T STRESS ENOUGH ABOUT BYSTANDER CPR.

WE MAY NOT HAVE HAD THIS OPPORTUNITY TONIGHT HAD MS..

ENNIS NOT STARTED CPR.

AND I JUST IMPLORE THOSE THAT ARE WATCHING OR ANYBODY IN THIS ROOM, IF YOU DON'T KNOW CPR, CALL OUR OFFICE.

WE TEACH CPR AND AED, WHICH WOULD ALSO HAVE DELIVERED THE SHOCK THE LAST FRIDAY OF EVERY MONTH.

IF YOU HAVE A BUSINESS OR SOME SOMETHING LIKE THAT, WE'LL GET OUT, DO OUR BEST TO GET OUT AND MEET YOU WHERE YOU ARE TO TEACH YOUR YOUR FOLKS.

WE HAVE AN APP PULSEPOINT APP SO THAT ONCE YOU GO THROUGH OUR PROGRAM AND YOU'RE NEAR COMMERCIAL OCCUPANCY THAT MIGHT HAVE A CPR CALL, IT'LL BUZZ YOUR PHONE SO YOU CAN GO AND AND RENDER AID UNTIL WE GET THERE.

DR. ENNIS AND HIS WIFE ARE HERE WITH US TONIGHT.

DR. ENNIS, IF YOU WOULD COME FORWARD, SIR, I KNOW HE WOULD LIKE TO SAY A FEW WORDS ALSO.

HE HAS A TICKET THAT HE SIGNED AND WE'RE GOING TO HAVE HIM PUT IT OVER HERE.

YEAH. IF YOU WANT TO GO AHEAD AND PUT THAT TICKET.

WE HAVE A CARDIAC ARREST.

SURVIVORS TRAIN HERE AND WE HAVE FOUR.

HE MAKES THE FOURTH TICKET ON THERE.

I'M HAPPY TO REPORT WE'LL BE BACK SOON WITH A FIFTH SURVIVOR THAT WE WERE RECOGNIZED BY BAYLOR SCOTT AND WHITE RECENTLY.

BUT DOCTOR ENNIS, THE FLOOR IS YOURS, SIR.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR BEING HERE.

YES, SIR. I'LL JUST SAY RIGHT HERE.

MAYOR TATE AND COUNCIL MEMBERS, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR ADMINISTRATION OF GRAPEVINE AND GIVING US SUCH A WONDERFUL

[00:45:08]

COMMUNITY TO LIVE IN.

AND I REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR HARD WORK IN WHAT YOU DO, AND THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR FUNDING THE FIRE DEPARTMENT AND THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR GIVING THEM THE MONEY FOR THE TRAINING THAT'S NECESSARY TO KEEP THE SKILL LEVEL UP ON EVERYBODY TO DO WHAT THEY DID.

YES, SIR. AND MELISSA.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR STARTING CPR ON ME AT HOME AND AND FOR ALL OF YOU IN TERMS OF WHAT YOU DID.

I WILL TELL YOU, DYING WAS EASY, BUT THE RIB FRACTURES WERE HARD.

AND AND SO IT TOOK ABOUT SIX WEEKS TO GET OVER THOSE.

AND BUT I MADE IT.

AND THE PEOPLE AT BAYLOR GRAPEVINE DID A WONDERFUL JOB AND THEY COOLED ME DOWN AND SLEPT ME FOR A WHILE.

AND AND AND THE HEALTH CARE WAS WONDERFUL.

ARE ARE ANY OF THE MEMBERS.

YES. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE THEM COME UP AND GET A PHOTO.

OKAY. RYAN, IF YOU AND JARED WOULD COME FORWARD AND THERE WAS A HOST OF OTHERS DOCTORS, BUT BUT THEY ALL HAD TO RUN OUT THERE ON THEIR OWN, SO.

COME OVER? YEAH.

IS SHE. IS SHE THE.

SHE'S THE. WELL, SHE.

SHE TALKED MY WIFE THROUGH CPR, AND I.

I REALLY APPRECIATE WHAT SHE DID.

YOU OUT HERE TONIGHT? WELL, I'M GOING TO GIVE THIS TO RECOGNIZE.

ENGINE TWO IS FOR DISPATCH.

MRS FOR ENGINE ONE. I'LL LET YOU COME OVER HERE.

WELL, YOU KNOW, THE CERTIFICATES ARE CERTAINLY VERY GOOD AND WORTHWHILE.

YOU CAN AT LEAST READ THAT WRITING.

YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO READ MY WRITING MOST LIKELY.

AND. BUT WHICH ONE OF YOU HAS THE HIGHEST RANK? OKAY, I'M GOING TO GIVE THIS TO YOU.

AND FOR ALL THE ALL THE MEMBERS THAT PARTICIPATED.

MIKE HERE, IF YOU WOULD EITHER DIVIDE THAT WITH THE WHOLE GROUP OR LET THE WHOLE GROUP DECIDE WHAT THEY WANT TO DO WITH IT.

AND IT'S A GIFT FROM ME TO THEM.

I REALLY IT'S A SMALL AMOUNT OF MONEY TO EXPRESS MY GRATITUDE FOR WHAT YOU'VE DONE.

AND SO I REALLY DO APPRECIATE IT.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

OKAY. IF WE COULD GET THESE FOLKS TO STAND HERE.

SURE. PEOPLE TAKE PICTURES.

YOU'RE GOOD.

YOU GOT ONE MORE? ONE MORE.

YOU GOT TO GET THIS ONE. WE CAN.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU, SIR.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MAYOR TATE.

THANK YOU FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY TO RECOGNIZE THESE MEN AND WOMEN OF OUR DEPARTMENT.

THEY DO A PHENOMENAL JOB EVERY DAY, AND WE'RE HAPPY TO SERVE THE CITIZENS OF OUR COMMUNITY.

THOSE ARE THE STORIES THAT ARE WORTH TELLING.

WE LIKE TO HEAR THEM. YES, SIR.

THANK YOU. ALL RIGHTY.

THE NEXT IS THE CHRIS SMITH FROM THE PARKS AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT IS HERE TO GIVE US AN UPDATE ON SETTLER'S PARK.

[10. Parks and Recreation Director to present an update on Settler’s Park.]

CHRIS. HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL.

I'M PLEASED TO BRING YOU THE UPDATED INFORMATION REGARDING THE PLANS AND THE NEXT STEPS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF GRAPEVINE NEXT LEGACY PARK SETTLERS PARK.

AND IN JUST A MINUTE, WE'LL HAVE THE SLIDE SHOW UP.

ONE OF THE PAPERS YOU CAN START.

GOT IT. SO. ALL RIGHT.

WE'LL GO AHEAD AND GET STARTED.

YOU ALL HAVE PAPERS IN FRONT OF YOU.

SETTLERS PARK IS A UNIQUE OASIS IN THE MIDST OF URBAN DEVELOPMENT, FOCUSED ON OUTDOOR RECREATION PROGRAMING AND ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION.

THE PARK REALLY IS GOING TO HAVE THREE MAIN GOALS.

NUMBER ONE IS TO PRACTICE, ENCOURAGE, AND ENABLE SCIENCE BASED STEWARDSHIP.

TWO IS TO INCREASE ACCESS TO AND PARTICIPATION IN THE OUTDOORS, AND THREE IS TO EDUCATE, INFORM AND ENGAGE GRAPEVINE CITIZENS IN SUPPORT OF CONSERVATION AND RECREATION.

[00:50:01]

FOR A LITTLE BIT OF CONTEXTUAL KIND OF INFORMATION AND GOING BACK TO WHERE THIS PROPERTY IS, YOU'LL SEE THE THE AREA IN RED IDENTIFIES THE PARK LOCATION. IT'S LOCATED IN THE NORTH NORTHERN SECTION OF GRAPEVINE, JUST WEST OF STATE HIGHWAY 26 AND JUST NORTH OF BASS PRO COURT.

IT ENCOMPASSES 15.8 ACRES, OF WHICH 6.2 OF THAT IS MADE UP OF A SPRING FED POND, AND IT'S SURROUNDED BY MATURE WOODLANDS. IT WAS DEDICATED BY GRAPEVINE EQUITY PARTNERS, AND THE CITY COUNCIL APPROVED THAT DEDICATION DEDICATION ON SEPTEMBER 15TH OF 2020. FUNDING AND ASSISTANCE CAME FROM THE TEXAS PARKS AND WILDLIFE DEPARTMENT AND A LOCAL GRANT OPPORTUNITY IN THE AMOUNT OF $500,000. I WANTED TO SHOW THESE EXISTING CONDITIONS BECAUSE THIS IS A GEM THAT MANY CITIES DO NOT HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO PROTECT.

AND SO WHAT WE LOOK WHEN WE SEE OUT THERE ARE LIKE TO THE LEFT SIDE.

AND AND WHAT I WANT TO SAY IS THIS IS A VISUAL REPRESENTATION OF WHAT IS OUT THERE RIGHT NOW.

I ALSO WANT TO REINFORCE THE CONCEPT THAT OUR OBJECTIVE THROUGHOUT THE CONSTRUCTION OF THIS PROJECT IS GOING TO BE TAKE THE TIME, TAKE THE EXTRA EFFORT TO BE SURE THAT WE CREATE AS LITTLE DISRUPTION TO THIS PROPERTY AS WE CAN.

IT NEEDS TO STAY EXACTLY LIKE IT IS AS MUCH AS WE CAN KEEP IT THERE.

BUT YOU'LL SEE TO THE LEFT SIDE OF THIS SLIDE AT THE BOTTOM, KIND OF A TRAIL THAT'S BEEN WORN JUST FROM PEOPLE THAT ARE ALREADY OUT THERE USING THE POND.

THEY'RE GOING OUT THERE. THEY'RE WALKING AROUND THE LAKE ALREADY.

JUST TO THE RIGHT OF THAT AT THE BOTTOM IS ONE OF THE WETLAND AREAS THAT WILL BE PROTECTED.

IT WILL BE SHOWN OFF AS AN EDUCATIONAL AND INFORMATION IN PIECE THROUGH SOME OF THE SIGNAGE AND THINGS LIKE THAT.

THE PHOTO TO THE TOP SHOWS THE EXISTING POND WITH THE AERATION FOUNTAIN THAT'S IN THE MIDDLE OF IT.

THE PHOTO TO THE FAR RIGHT AND THE UPPER HAND CORNER SHOWS JUST A FABULOUS, BEAUTIFUL NATURAL ROCK OUTCROPPING THAT MANY TIMES WILL HAVE JUST A NICE WATERFALL EFFECT TO IT.

AND THEN THE PHOTO AT THE BOTTOM SHOWS ANOTHER VIEW OF THE EXISTING POND WITH ALL OF THE MATURE WOODLANDS THAT SURROUNDS THIS BEAUTIFUL POND.

AND THE REASON I WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT THIS SLIDE RIGHT HERE IS BECAUSE IT'S THESE EXISTING CONDITIONS THAT REALLY MADE THE TEXAS PARKS AND WILDLIFE DEPARTMENT COME OUT, LOOK AT THE PROPERTY, AND GOT THEM SO EXCITED AT THIS OPPORTUNITY TO PRESERVE THIS NATURAL RESOURCE.

TAKING YOU BACK TO MANY YEARS AGO.

SO 2017 WHEN THIS WAS INITIALLY DISCUSSED AND THIS WAS SOME OF THE CONCEPTS AND PORTIONS THAT COULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN IT, IT KIND OF GIVES YOU A LAYOUT OF THE POND WITH SOME OF THE EXISTING STRUCTURES AND SOME OF THE FUTURE STRUCTURES.

BUT THIS REALLY HIGHLIGHTS IN AND SHOWS YOU WHAT THE FULLY DEVELOPED PARK COULD LOOK LIKE.

IT HIGHLIGHTS MANY OF THE AREAS AND SHOWS ALL OF THE PARK AMENITIES THAT WOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE FULLY DEVELOPED PARK AS WELL AS GIVES YOU SOME THUMBNAILS OF WHAT THOSE THINGS WOULD LOOK LIKE.

SO IT EXPLAINS WHAT A KAYAK AND PADDLE BOAT LAUNCH WOULD LOOK LIKE.

BUT I REALLY WANT TO HONE IN ON THIS NEXT SLIDE, WHICH IS AN EXAMPLE OF AND PROVIDES A VISUAL OF WHAT THIS WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DO TO GET THIS PROJECT UNDERWAY BY PLANNING TO SPLIT THIS INTO A PHASED APPROACH.

WE DO HAVE THE FULL SET OF ARCHITECTURAL PLANS AND THE CONSTRUCTION DRAWINGS FOR THIS ENTIRE PROJECT, BUT THIS PHASED APPROACH ALLOWS US TO GET THE PROJECT UNDERWAY WITH THE EXISTING FUNDING SOURCES AND HELPS US TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE TWD GRANT FUNDING.

THIS SLIDE WILL SHOW YOU ALL OF THE AMENITIES THAT ARE INCLUDED IN THIS PHASE ONE APPROACH.

WHAT IT DOES SHOW YOU ALSO IS THAT ALL OF THE AREAS THAT ARE KIND OF GRAYED OUT ARE THE FULLY DEVELOPED PARK.

ALL OF THE AREAS THAT ARE HIGHLIGHTED ARE WHAT WILL BE INCLUDED IN PHASE ONE.

SO WHAT YOU WILL SEE IN PHASE ONE WILL BE THE FISHING PIER SHOWN IN BLUE AND LABELED AS NUMBER ONE, THE SOFT SURFACE TRAIL SHOWN IN SHOWN IN ORANGE AND LABELED AS NUMBER TWO, THE RESTROOM FACILITY, WHICH WILL HAVE HEATED AND AIR CONDITIONED FOR FULLY ACCESSIBLE RESTROOM UNITS IN PURPLE AND LABELED AS NUMBER THREE, THE PAVILION AND LAKE OVERLOOK SHOWN AS DARK BLUE.

AND HIS NUMBER FOUR.

NUMBER FIVE SHOWS YOU THE PARKING AREA THAT WILL INITIALLY BE USED AS A LAYDOWN YARD FOR THE CONSTRUCTION PROCESS AND WILL EVENTUALLY BECOME A GRAVEL PARKING LOT. AT THE CONCLUSION OF PHASE ONE, THE HANDICAPPED PARKING SHOWN AS ITEM SIX.

ITEM SEVEN SHOWS YOU THE PARK ENTRY SIGNAGE AND SOME OF THE INTERPRETIVE SIGNAGE THAT WILL BE INCLUDED THROUGHOUT THIS PROJECT.

[00:55:06]

AND THE BOARDWALK IS SHOWN IN GREEN AS ITEM NUMBER EIGHT AND SHOWS THE ACTUAL BOARDWALK AND A LITTLE BUMP OUT AREA, WHICH WILL ALLOW FOR PICNIC TABLES, SEATING AREAS AND JUST WHERE PEOPLE CAN SIT AND JUST ENJOY THE LAKE FROM THAT VIEW.

SHED THE PATH SHOWN IN YELLOW AS ITEM NUMBER NINE IS THE MULTI-PURPOSE CONCRETE TRAIL THAT WILL EVENTUALLY LOOP ALL THE WAY, ALL THE WAY AROUND THE POND AND CONNECT BACK WITH THE BOARDWALK ON THE EAST SIDE, CREATING THAT FULL LOOP AROUND THE LAKE.

FOLLOWING THAT, I WANTED TO GO INTO A FEW OF THE AMENITIES JUST TO GIVE YOU KIND OF A DEEPER DIVE INTO WHAT SOME OF THESE AREAS WILL LOOK LIKE AT COMPLETION OF PHASE ONE.

SO WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT HERE WILL BE THE SOFT SURFACE NATURE TRAIL.

AND IN THIS PHASE ONE, YOU WOULD SEE ABOUT 1000 LINEAR FEET THAT WOULD BE DEVELOPED AS PART OF THIS PHASE ONE, AS WELL AS THE CONCRETE TRAIL, WHICH WOULD BE ABOUT 1000 LINEAR FEET OF THAT.

YOU WILL END UP SEEING IN PHASE ONE, A 24 BY 20 STRUCTURE PAVILION STRUCTURE, WHICH WILL BE USED FOR RENTALS, FOR PICNICS, FOR EDUCATION.

AND YOU ALSO SEE AN EXAMPLE OF THE RESTROOM FACILITY, WHICH, AS I SAID, WILL BE HEATED AND AIR CONDITIONED.

IT CONTAINS FOUR ACCESSIBLE UNITS AND SOME OF THE FINISHES YOU SEE ON THAT WILL BE WHAT WILL BE WHEN THIS IS COMPLETE, THE KIND OF FINISH THAT YOU WILL SEE ON THAT RESTROOM FACILITY.

THIS ONE IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE SLIDES BECAUSE IT GIVES YOU A GOOD IDEA OF THE BOARDWALK AND THE FISHING PIER.

YOU WILL NOTICE THE BOARDWALK IS INTENDED TO CREATE OPEN VIEWSHEDS.

IT INCLUDES A FOOT BOARD ON EACH SIDE OF THE WALK, AS WELL AS A WOODEN CAP ON TOP OF THE BOARDWALK AND CABLING ALL THROUGH THE ENTIRE BOARDWALK SECTION SO THAT NOBODY IS ABLE TO FALL THROUGH THOSE AND INTO THE POND.

SO CREATING SAFETY, CREATING A PLACE FOR PEOPLE TO GO FISH AND JUST ENJOY THE POND FROM RIGHT THERE ON TOP OF THE POND. THE NEXT SLIDE SHOWS YOU SOME OF THE INTERPRETIVE SIGNAGE THAT WOULD BE USED.

THIS PROVIDES PART OF THE EDUCATIONAL PIECE, PART OF THE INFORMATIONAL PIECE THAT PEOPLE ARE GOING TO HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT.

WHAT AM I SEEING HERE? WE WANT TO POINT OUT ALL OF THAT BECAUSE THIS REALLY NEEDS TO TOUCH ON THE EDUCATION AND THE PRESERVATION OF A RESOURCE BECAUSE YOU DO NOT GET TO SEE THESE EVERYWHERE.

AND THEN IT SHOWS YOU THE PARK IDENTIFICATION SIGNAGE, WHICH WOULD MATCH OUR PARK SIGNAGE THROUGHOUT OUR ENTIRE PARK SYSTEM.

MOVING ON TO THAT IS THIS THIS PROJECT DOES NEED FUNDING.

THE TOTAL CONSTRUCTION COST FOR THIS IS $3,346,000 OF THAT.

TEXAS PARKS AND WILDLIFE HAS PROVIDED A GRANT IN THE AMOUNT OF 500,000.

AND SO THE CITY'S CONTRIBUTION WOULD EQUAL THE 2,846,000.

AS FAR AS THE TIMELINE ABOUT WHAT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT, YOU KNOW, WE'VE BEEN AT THIS KIND OF TALKING ABOUT IT SINCE 2017.

COVID CAME ALONG.

THINGS HAVE BEEN DELAYED.

WELL, WE'RE READY TO MOVE.

WE DID BID OPENINGS FOR THIS PROJECT ON JUNE 22ND.

WE ARE HERE TONIGHT PRESENTING TO COUNCIL.

WE WOULD LIKE TO BRING THIS BACK AT THE NEXT COUNCIL MEETING ON OCTOBER 3RD TO TO GET YOUR APPROVAL FOR THE FUNDING AND FOR THE CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT.

AND THEN WE WOULD PROPOSE CONSTRUCTION BEGINNING IN NOVEMBER OF THIS YEAR AND TAKING ABOUT ONE YEAR, JUST OVER ONE YEAR TO COMPLETE CONSTRUCTION ON THIS PHASE ONE.

AND I DEFINITELY APPRECIATE THE TIME THAT YOU GAVE ME TO BRING THIS EXCITING OPPORTUNITY TO YOU TO PROTECT THIS NATURAL RESOURCE.

AND I WILL BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE ABOUT THIS.

WE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? DO YOU KNOW WHAT MY QUESTION IS GOING TO BE? WHAT'S THE SOURCE OF THE 2.8 MILLION? PART OF IT IS ALREADY HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AND PAST FUNDING CYCLES THROUGH PROJECTS.

THERE WAS 1.7 IN THAT AND TALKING THROUGH WITH FINANCE, THEY WANT THEY WILL WANT TO MOVE THAT 1.7 INTO QUALITY OF LIFE.

THERE'S ALREADY BEEN AN ADDITIONAL AMOUNT IN THE QUALITY OF LIFE FUNDING THAT HAS BEEN SAVED FROM OTHER PROJECTS THAT IS ALREADY IDENTIFIED.

AND SO THAT WHOLE POOL OF MONEY WILL COME OUT OF QUALITY OF LIFE.

THE 1.7 MILLION THAT YOU MENTIONED ORIGINALLY WAS THAT SAVINGS FROM OTHER PARKS AND REC PROJECTS.

NO, THAT ONE WAS JUST IDENTIFIED AS A PROJECT, AS A FUTURE PROJECT AND WAS THAT MONEY WAS SET ASIDE AND ALREADY IN AN ACCOUNT.

I MEAN, AGAIN, YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT RESOURCES, RIGHT? THE QUALITY OF LIFE FUND WOULD BE ONE.

OBVIOUSLY, WE HAVE A LARGE CAPITAL BUDGET THAT WE SPEND FROM AND WE WERE ABLE TO IDENTIFY MONEY OUT OF THAT CAPITAL BUDGET THAT WAS UNALLOCATED IN ORDER TO BE ABLE TO

[01:00:06]

TO GET ROLLING WITH THIS PROJECT AND GET PHASE ONE STARTED.

YES, MA'AM. THANK YOU, CHRIS. GOOD JOB.

AND THAT WAS WHEN MIKE PATEL DEVELOPED THAT WHEN WE PLANNED ALL THIS IN THE BEGINNING, RIGHT? ABSOLUTELY. YES.

YES. YOU KNOW, PEOPLE ARE GOING TO WANT TO CAMP OUT THERE.

PROJECTS BEEN IN THE PLANNING FOR SOME TIME AND THEY'VE BEEN LAYING THE MONEY BACK.

ALL RIGHT. GOOD DEAL.

ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU MUCH. IS THAT GOING TO BE PART OF WILL WE ALLOW PEOPLE TO CAMP OUT THERE? IS THAT NO CAMPING WILL BE DONE MORE ON A PLANNED AND PROGRAMED ACCESS THAN IT WOULD BE.

JUST SHOW UP AND DECIDE TO CAMP.

SO WE WOULD WANT TO HOST LIKE YOUR BOY SCOUT, GIRL SCOUT TROOPS, YOUR FAMILY CAMP OUTS, THOSE KIND OF THINGS WOULD BE THE USES THAT WE WOULD WANT TO GET FOR THAT.

AND YOU DID NOT SEE ME TALK ABOUT THAT FOR THIS PHASE THAT WOULD BE DEVELOPED IN ONE OF THE IN THE FUTURE PHASE FROM THE EDUCATIONAL PERSPECTIVE OF THAT, I MEAN, I LOVE THE IDEA OF TALKING ABOUT THE MARSHLANDS AND ALL OF THE DIFFERENT FLORA AND FAUNA THAT YOU'LL SEE OUT THERE THAT YOU DON'T SEE EVERYWHERE BECAUSE OF THAT.

OR IS THERE A POSSIBILITY FOR FUTURE FUNDING FROM THE TEXAS DEPARTMENT OF WILDLIFE AS WE MOVE THROUGH THIS FIRST PHASE? ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE WILL BE FOCUSED ON IMMEDIATELY IS PURSUING ANY OF THOSE NEW GRANT OPPORTUNITIES THAT WILL HAVE COME UP SINCE THE TIME THAT WE'VE GOTTEN THE FIVE RECEIVED, THE $500,000 GRANT AND SEE WHAT ELSE IS OUT THERE.

IT'LL BE FOR EDUCATION, IT WILL BE FOR PRESERVATION, IT WILL BE FOR MAYBE THERE'S ONE FOR A KAYAK LAUNCH.

THERE ARE THOSE OPPORTUNITIES ALL THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.

WE JUST WILL BE PAYING VERY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THOSE NOW THAT WE'RE READY TO CONTINUE ON AND JUST MOVE THROUGH THIS ENTIRE PROJECT AND GET IT TO FULL DEVELOPMENT.

GREAT. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

THAT'S BEAUTIFUL. I'VE GOT A COUPLE QUESTIONS.

ARE YOU ARE WE GOING TO STALK THAT POND, THE FISHING? WHAT WE WILL END UP DOING IN FUTURE ITERATIONS OF THIS PROJECT WILL PROBABLY BE WORKING WITH TEXAS PARKS AND WILDLIFE TO DO THINGS LIKE WE'VE DONE IN THE PAST, LIKE CHURCH AT THE CROSS OR AT THE IRRIGATION IRRIGATION POND AT OAK GROVE.

WE WOULD WORK WITH THEM TO COME IN AND STOCK THE POND, DO MAYBE A KIDS FISHING DAY AND THAT KIND OF STUFF TO PROVIDE AN EVENT OUT THERE AND DO SOME STOCKING IN THAT FORM IN THE THE TRAIL SYSTEM.

WILL IT CONNECT TO THAT OR WILL THERE BE OPPORTUNITY DOWN THE ROAD TO TRY TO CONNECT IT TO OUR TRAIL SYSTEMS? OH, FOR SURE.

THE THE TRAIL SYSTEM, THE LINKS TRAIL AND ALL OF THOSE.

THE MAIN OBJECTIVE IS TO GET PEOPLE COMING ON THEIR BICYCLE, WALKING DOWN THE TRAIL AND GETTING INTO THAT PARK AND NOT NECESSARILY HAVING TO DRIVE TO IT.

THAT'S A VERY GOOD QUESTION.

THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT.

DO YOU HAVE A BREAKDOWN OF THE COST OF THE DIFFERENT COMPONENTS IN THIS? YES, WE DO.

IN THE BID, MANY OF THOSE SPECIFIC THINGS ARE BROKEN OUT IN THE BID PROCESS.

AND WE'VE GONE THROUGH AND IDENTIFIED THINGS THAT WE WANT THE THE CONSTRUCTION FIRM DOING AND THINGS THAT WE WILL DO INTERNALLY BECAUSE WE WERE ABLE TO FIND THAT THERE ARE SOME THINGS THAT THEY BID OUT THAT THAT WE ARE ABLE TO DO CHEAPER BECAUSE WE HAVE RESOURCES AND WE HAVE OTHER CONTRACTS IN PLACE THAT CAN GET IT DONE CHEAPER. SO WE HAVE ALL OF THOSE THINGS ITEMIZED OUT.

WOULD IT BE. YES, MA'AM.

THANK YOU. SO WE IDENTIFIED ALL THE UPFRONT COSTS TO GET THIS BUILT.

WHAT IS THIS GOING TO TAKE IN TERMS OF JUST ANNUAL RECURRING COSTS TO KEEP THIS UP ONCE WE GET IT IN PLACE? WELL, JUST LIKE ANY OTHER OF OUR OTHER PARKS, THERE'S GOING TO BE THINGS OF RESTROOM CLEANINGS.

THERE'S GOING TO BE THINGS OF CLEANING THE TRAIL, TREE MAINTENANCE, GROUND MAINTENANCE.

ALL OF THOSE THINGS ARE GOING TO BE INCLUDED.

AND AS WE GO THROUGH THE COURSE OF THIS NEXT YEAR, THOSE WILL ALL BE INCLUDED AS PART OF THE OF THE NEXT YEAR'S BUDGET PREP.

AND TO SAY, I KNOW WHAT THOSE NUMBERS ARE TODAY, I DON'T BELIEVE I CAN SAY THAT, BUT THAT'LL DEFINITELY BE ON OUR MINDS AS WE MOVE FORWARD.

THANK YOU. OKAY. IT'S NOT DESIGNED FOR ANY ACTION TONIGHT.

THEY'LL BE BROUGHT BACK TO CONSIDER.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH, CHRIS.

THANKS, CHRIS. I KNOW, I KNOW YOU AND THE TEAM WORKED VERY HARD ON THIS.

THIS IS GOING TO BE SOMETHING THAT'S GOING TO IT IS GENERATIONAL, LIKE YOU SAID.
