[00:00:02]
WELL, LET'S GO AHEAD AND GET STARTED. [INAUDIBLE].
THANK YOU SIR. ALL RIGHT, SO WE HAVE 5:37. WE'LL START OUR QUARTERLY REPORTS.
[QUARTERLY DEPARTMENT REPORTS ]
THANK YOU. SIR. COME ON UP. GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL.GOOD EVENING, YOUR HONOR. SO I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU A FEW HIGHLIGHTS FROM QUARTER ONE.
FROM PUBLIC WORKS. SO AT THE AIRPORT, I'LL START WITH AIRPORT.
WE HAD 15,201 OPERATIONS FOR 14,043 WERE FROM VISITING AIRCRAFT AND 1158 WERE BASED OR BASED OUT AT THE AIRPORT. THIS IS FOR QUARTER ONE.
SO IT LOOKS LIKE THE BIG WINNER IS THURSDAY 3149.
SO THAT'S OPERATIONS BY THE DAY OF THE WEEK. WOW.
WHAT DRIVES THAT? ANYTHING REOCCURRING? NO. I GUESS EVERYBODY LIKES FLYING ON THURSDAYS, RIGHT? I COULDN'T I REALLY DON'T KNOW. I JUST THAT'S AWESOME.
NEXT SLIDE. THIS SHOWS A GRAPH FOR OPERATIONS PER HOUR.
SO IT LOOKS LIKE BETWEEN 10AM AND 6PM. I'LL CALL I'LL SAY IS THE BUSIEST TIME OF THE DAY.
WE HAVE THE MOST OPERATIONS AND THIS IS OUR FUEL REPORT FOR THE QUARTER.
FOR AVGAS, WE HAD 15,494 GALLONS OF AVGAS AND THEN JET FUEL 4774, A TOTAL OF 20,268 $0.09 PER GALLON. 18, 24 AND $0.12. JUST A FEW MORE UPDATES ABOUT THE AIRPORT.
WE'RE STILL WAITING FROM THE FAA ON THE APPROVAL FOR THE AIRPORT LAYOUT PLAN.
HEATH JUST CHECKED LATE LAST WEEK, AND THEY STILL HAVE IT AND THEY HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING.
WE'RE LOOKING AT HAVING A FLY IN, KIND OF LIKE AN OPEN HOUSE FLY IN THIS SUMMER SOMETIME.
BUT TAKE A COUPLE ORDINANCES TO GET IT REESTABLISHED.
SO THIS IS A SLIDE ON WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT FOR 2025 QUARTER ONE WE'VE TREATED THIS IS ROUND NUMBER 65 MILLION GALLONS VERSUS 2024 QUARTER 174 MILLION GALLONS. LET ME BACK UP JUST SO WE CAN YOU GUYS REMEMBER, OUR ANNUAL AVERAGE RIGHT NOW IS 780,000 GALLONS PER DAY, 65% OF OUR CAPACITY AND THEN OUR TRIGGER POINTS IS 75% AND THAT'S WHEN WE GOT TO START ENGINEERING AND THEN 90% IS WHEN CONSTRUCTION SHOULD BE STARTED ON ON EXPANDED FACILITIES.
THAT'S A HEALTHY CHANGE. BETWEEN 24 AND 25 WAS IT WAS DID WE HAVE A RAINIER SPRING.
[INAUDIBLE] ITS RAIN DEPENDENT. OKAY. YOU'LL SEE IN ON THE WATER SLIDE, IT'LL BE JUST THE OPPOSITE.
SO THE WATER PLANT QUARTER ONE 2025. WE'VE MADE 98 MILLION GALLONS VERSUS QUARTER ONE INCH 2024.
SO. THIS IS OUR WORK ORDER. SUMMARY FOR THE QUARTER.
SO FOR THE QUARTER, WE'VE COMPLETED 762 WORK ORDERS.
CHIP BRUSH, 192 BAGS OF LEAVES AND GRASS. THAT'S 108.
[00:05:03]
YEAH, THESE ARE ONES THAT ACTUALLY GET CALLED IN AND DOCUMENTED.SO I FEEL LIKE IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD THAT IT COMES BY EVERY MONDAY AND I HEAR IT SHREDDING, AND I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY OF US HAVE CALLED IN, BUT YOU CAN ALMOST COUNT ON THAT FLOW. SO IT BE INTERESTING TO KNOW.
YEAH, WELDON DOES A GREAT JOB ON KEEPING STUFF.
THEY DO GREAT WORK. THANK YOU. AND A LOT OF TIMES THEY JUST GET IT WITHOUT IT GETTING CALLED IN.
SO LET'S SEE A COUPLE OTHER BIG ONES ARE THE.
THESE ARE THE WATER METER STUFF. TURN ON, TURN OFF AND LOCK.
READ OUT AND LEAVE ON. LOOKS LIKE WE DID 47 POTHOLE WORK ORDERS AND THEN 35 SIGN REPAIRS.
THAT'S FROM MAINLY FROM THE WINDSTORMS THAT WE HAD.
ON MARCH 7TH, 2025, WE JOINED TEXAS 811. SO WE'RE NOW OFFICIALLY A MEMBER OF THAT WHERE WHEN RESIDENTS OR CITIZENS CALL IN FOR LINE LOCATES, WE GET NOTIFIED AND WE GO OUT AND DO A I GUESS YOU CAN SAY OFFICIAL WORK LINE LOCATE.
AND SO FAR WE'VE DONE 155 OF THOSE. THAT'S JUST SINCE MARCH 7TH.
GREAT. YOU GUYS KNOW WE HAVE A PROBLEM AT JONES.
I'M SURE YOU MAY HAVE HEARD A LITTLE SOMETHING ABOUT IT. WE'RE TRYING TO WORK ON THAT.
WE'RE TRYING TO GET ELIMINATE PARKING ON BOTH SIDES OF THE STREET AND JUST ALLOW PARKING ON ONE SIDE OF THE STREET, IF NECESSARY. WE'D RATHER PARK IN THE WHAT WE CALL THE PEACH ORCHARD.
80 TO 100 SPOTS IN THERE AND THEN HEATH JUST CLEANED OUT AROUND THE THREE BARNS DOWN AT KIND OF THAT LOWER AREA BY THE RESTROOMS TO WHERE WE CAN GET SOME PARKING IN THERE IF THAT'S STRIPED AND RESURFACED SO WE CAN GET 38 PARKING PLACES IN THERE AND THEN OUR EXISTING PAVED PARKING, WE HAVE 140. SO WE'RE TRYING TO HELP THAT.
IT SEEMED LIKE EVERY TIME WE'VE HAD A PROBLEM, IT'S BEEN A PROBLEM THAT CAUSED THE PROBLEM.
ONE TIME THE SOCCER AND BASEBALL GOT MIXED UP ON THEIR SCHEDULE, RAN OUT SCHEDULE.
SO IT SEEMS LIKE EVERY TIME WE'VE HAD A PROBLEM, IT'S BECAUSE OF A DIFFERENT PROBLEM.
SO I THINK IF ONCE WE GET ALL THAT STRAIGHT, WE'LL BE DOING GOOD ON PARKING AND THEN WE'LL BE AS MONEY BECOMES AVAILABLE, WE'LL TRY TO GET THESE PARKING SURFACES IMPROVED.
A COUPLE NOTES HERE ON THE PARK. WE HAVE WE'RE WAITING ON QUOTES FOR THE SPLASH PAD, RESTROOM, EQUIPMENT BUILDING.
WE'RE DELVING CHECK FOR ME. WE'RE WAITING ON SADAKO HERE ANY DAY TO GIVE US A PRICE.
WE'VE ALSO WENT OUT FOR ANOTHER PRICE. JUST TO COMPARE.
AS SOON AS WE GET THOSE PRICES, WE'LL MAKE A DECISION IN THE SPLASH PAD.
AND THEN OVER AT BIG MAMA'S WE HAD WE GOT THE CRYSTAL WAGNER GRANT FOR A PAVILION OVER THERE.
EVERYTHING'S GO ON THAT. WE MAY GET A MODIFIED FOUNDATION PLAN TO HELP SAVE A LITTLE MONEY, BUT THAT'S IN THE WORKS TO GET MOVING TO. OUR GOAL IS TO HAVE THAT OPEN ON JUNETEENTH CELEBRATION.
FOR OUR PROJECTS WE HAVE GOING ON. I JUST PUT PALOMA TRAILS.
THAT'S THE MOST ACTIVE RIGHT NOW. THEY'RE WORKING ON SITE SEWER, SANITARY SEWER.
KIND OF. WHAT I HIGHLIGHT IS WHAT'S COMPLETE.
THERE'S ANOTHER SECTION OF THIS MAP THAT'S NOT COMPLETE YET.
SO THERE'S A LOT OF UTILITIES OUT HERE. IT'S A BIG SUBDIVISION.
SO THEY'VE COMPLETED FOR THE I SAY 90% OF THE OFF SITE FORCE MAIN FOR THE SEWER.
AND THEN THE RESERVE ON CHICO STREET. THEY'RE WORKING ON SOME RETAINING WALLS, AND THEY STILL HAVE THE STREET TO REPAIR BACK AND THEN WE'LL BE LOOKING PROBABLY AT A STREET PROJECT UP IN THAT AREA ONCE THEY GET A LITTLE MORE COMPLETE.
ON OUR CELLULAR METERS. WE HAVE 22,873M IN THE SYSTEM, AND WE'VE GOT 816 UPGRADED SO FAR.
[00:10:07]
WE ONLY HAVE ABOUT 100 PEOPLE SIGNED UP FOR THE ONLINE PROGRAM, BUT ONCE WE GET THEM ALL REPLACED, WE'LL START HITTING THAT REAL HARD. I HATE TO PUT IT OUT TOO MUCH AND THEN IF A RESIDENT DOESN'T HAVE A NEW METER, THEY'RE GOING TO BE WONDERING, WHY CAN'T I SEE THE METER? SO WE'RE KIND OF BEING WE'LL LEAVE A BROCHURE WITH THEM WHEN WE DO CHANGE THEM OUT, BUT AS SOON AS WE GET THEM ALL CHANGED OUT, WE'LL HIT THAT CAMPAIGN REAL HARD TO GET EVERYBODY WHERE THEY CAN VIEW THEIR OWN STUFF.JUST A REMINDER OF WHAT YOU CAN SEE, YOU KNOW, KIND OF BY THE DAY, BY THE HOUR.
IT TAKES A READING EVERY 15 MINUTES. REPORTS FOUR TIMES A DAY.
SO AND IN THE LAKE. IT'S PROBABLY FULL NOW. THIS WAS 4/23.
IT'S JUST 3.43 FEET LOW, NATE LOOKS LIKE HE'S LOOKING THAT UP FOR YOU.
AND THEN KIND OF OUR CITY COUNTY PROJECT PAVING PROJECT.
WE'RE GOING TO DO RIDGEVIEW COURT. IT'S BEEN PUT OFF FOR A FEW YEARS NOW.
IT'S IN BAD SHAPE. SO THE LEFT HALF, IF YOU'RE DRIVING WEST, THE LEFT HALF OF THE CUL DE SAC, WE'RE NOT GOING TO DO. IT'S IN PRETTY GOOD SHAPE AND IT'D BE THE COUNTY'S MACHINES.
MAKES IT A LITTLE DIFFICULT TO DO THAT. SO WE'RE GOING TO LEAVE THAT AREA. WE'RE NOT GOING TO DO THE LITTLE DEAD END STREETS. WE'RE JUST GOING TO DO THE MAIN, THE MAIN DRAG THROUGH THERE. SO MAY 6TH IS WHAT WE HAVE SCHEDULED WITH THE COUNTY.
THAT'S ALL I HAVE. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, I DO.
YES, MA'AM. HAS ANYBODY SAID ANYTHING ABOUT A NAME FOR THE PAVILION? WE WILL BE DISCUSSING AT OUR NEXT PARK BOARD MEETING.
I'D LIKE TO THINK ABOUT NAMING THAT AFTER MIKE BELL.
HE HAS PUT A LOT OF TIME INTO THAT COMMUNITY OVER THERE.
SO HE EVERY YEAR I COULD EXPECT A CALL FROM, ME OR NATE, OR EVEN I KNOW HE WAS PASSIONATE ABOUT THAT PARK OVER THERE, AND I THINK THAT WOULD BE A FITTING TRIBUTE TO HIM.
YEAH, WE CAN DO THAT AND THEN BRING IT BACK TO YOU GUYS FOR OFFICIAL.
OKAY. THANK YOU MA'AM. THANK YOU. SIR. THANK YOU SIR.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? AND THE LAKE IS FULL.
THANK YOU SO MUCH. ALL RIGHT. LIBRARY REPORT.
HELLO. HI. THIS LOOKS LIKE AN OLD REPORT. THIS IS NOT THE CORRECT ONE. IT FEELS LIKE IT'S A YEAR OLD. YEAH. SO LAST YEAR.
THERE WE GO. THAT'S BETTER. OKAY. SO CIRCULATION.
THE VISITS THAT WE HAD OR THE BOOKS THAT WE CIRCULATED IN JANUARY, FEBRUARY AND MARCH ARE UP THERE.
OUR NUMBERS IN MARCH ARE A LITTLE BIT LOWER THAN JANUARY.
THE NUMBER OF VISITS HAS INCREASED. MARCH. WE HAD 4578 VISITORS TO THE LIBRARY.
THE NUMBERS BELOW YOU CAN KIND OF COMPARE TO THE TOTAL THREE MONTHS PRIOR.
SO IN 2025, A TOTAL OF 21,475 ITEMS CIRCULATED AND 11,074 VISITS. OUR ADULT PROGRAMS. WE HAD A TOTAL OF 29 PROGRAMS IN THE FIRST THREE MONTHS, AND 180 ATTENDEES AT THOSE EVENTS. FOR CHILDREN, WE HAD A TOTAL OF 67 PROGRAMS, AND THE NUMBER OF ATTENDEES WAS 1132.
THAT'S IT. I DO HAVE SOME OTHER THINGS. JUST REAL QUICK.
FEBRUARY WAS LOVE YOUR LIBRARY MONTH, SO WE DID HAVE SOME VIDEOS.
YOU'RE SCAMMING THE PEOPLE. WE ARE TEACHING THEM HOW TO SCAM, RIGHT? YES. WE'VE HAD ALL THOSE DISCUSSIONS. EXACTLY.
SO WE ARE VISITING A HERITAGE NURSING HOME AND TAKING BOOKS AND MATERIALS TO THEM.
[00:15:08]
WE HAVE STARTED A SENIOR COFFEE ON FRIDAYS. LAST FRIDAY WAS OUR FIRST ONE.WE HAD OVER 20 SENIORS AT THAT EVENT. THEY WERE ALL VERY EXCITED ABOUT IT.
TRIVIA. THE ONE THAT WE HAD AT THE LIBRARY LAST MONTH, WE HAD 63 ATTENDEES.
AND THEN WE DO HAVE AN UPCOMING EVENT ON MOTHER'S DAY WEEKEND.
ON SATURDAY, WE HAVE AN AUTHOR COMING UP AND WE'RE GOING TO HAVE VENDORS THERE, AND IT'S JUST GOING TO BE AN ALL AROUND FUN FOR AN EVENT AND LAST THING FOR AARP THAT WE'VE RECEIVED THOSE NUMBERS BACK.
SO FOR THE TAX YEAR 2024, THEY FILED 231 PAPER WERE SIX PRIOR YEARS EIGHT.
SO A TOTAL OF 245 WERE FILED. Q AND A'S SIX AND THEY HAD 251 CLIENTS, AND THAT WAS UP OVER 50 FROM THE PREVIOUS YEAR. AND THE REFUNDS WERE 192,000, AND THE TAXES DUE WERE, 95,500. SO THAT'S IT. ANY QUESTIONS? COMMENTS.
THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT. DEVELOPMENT SERVICES. MAYOR WHILE WAYNE'S GETTING SET UP, JUST FOR THOSE WHO MAY BE WATCHING THIS LATER OR ONLINE RIGHT NOW, THE SCAMMING CAMPAIGN WAS EMAIL AND PHONE SCAMS SPECIFIC TO PHISHING VIA EMAIL, THAT SORT OF THING.
JUST WANTED TO BE CLEAR ABOUT THE INTENT OF THAT EDUCATION, JUST FOR THOSE WHO MIGHT BE WATCHING.
VERY APPROPRIATE. THANK YOU. NATE. SORRY. GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL.
HELLO. SO I'M HAPPY TO BRING YOU THE DEVELOPMENT SERVICES QUARTERLY REPORT FOR 2025, FIRST QUARTER.
WE MAINTAINED TWO SEPARATE DEPARTMENTS WITH BUILDING AND PLANNING.
WITH MYSELF AS THE DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DIRECTOR AND BUILDING OFFICIAL AND LISA HANNAN AS THE DEVELOPMENT SERVICES ASSISTANT DIRECTOR AND THE PLANNING DIRECTOR FOR THE DEPARTMENT. SOME OF THE UPDATES FOR THIS DEPARTMENT FOR THE FIRST QUARTER, AS WE DID GO THROUGH THAT AND IMPLEMENT THAT REORGANIZATION HAD 49 HOURS OF TRAINING COMPLETED ACROSS THE DEPARTMENT FOR THE FIRST QUARTER.
THE FIRST VISTA PARK FOUNDATIONS HAVE BEEN POURED, AND THEN THERE'S 45 ADDITIONAL PERMITS THAT ARE IN VARIOUS STAGES OF PERMITTING AT THIS POINT COMPLETED THE ANNEXATION OF THE NATURE CREEK DEVELOPMENT, ALONG WITH THE ZONING AND COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AMENDMENTS FOR THAT DEVELOPMENT. SO DEVELOPMENT SERVICES ENCOMPASSES PERMITTING, INSPECTIONS, HEALTH CODE ENFORCEMENT, PLANNING, AND GIS. WE'LL START OFF WITH BUILDING, PERMITTING AND INSPECTIONS.
THE TA TRAVEL CENTER THAT'S NEARING COMPLETION.
THERE'S CERTAIN PORTIONS OF THE BUILDING THAT'S NOT QUITE READY TO OCCUPY, BUT WE FEEL LIKE WE CAN GET THEM OPEN ON THE GOLDEN CHICK AND THE CONVENIENCE STORE PORTION OF THAT TO TRAVEL CENTER. DURING THE FIRST QUARTER OF 2025.
WE HAD 209 PLAN REVIEWS ACROSS THE DEPARTMENT WITH PLANNING, HEALTH AND BUILDING PLAN REVIEWS.
ISSUED A TOTAL OF 178 BUILDING PERMITS. THE VALUATION FOR THOSE BUILDING PERMITS CAME IN AT JUST UNDER $2.3 MILLION. SOME OF THE HIGHLIGHTS OF THAT FIRST QUARTER INCLUDE.
WE HAD THREE NEW HOME PERMITS THAT WERE ISSUED DURING THAT TIME.
THOSE VALUES ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THAT CONTRACT EVALUATION.
AND SO MOST OF THOSE CONTRACTORS ARE NOT PROVIDING THAT VALUATION.
SO WE DON'T INCLUDE EVALUATION FOR THAT IN THERE.
SO THERE IS SOME MISSING INFORMATION THERE. WE DID HAVE 15 CERTIFICATES OF OCCUPANCY THAT WERE ISSUED DURING THAT FIRST QUARTER AND SIX DEMOLITION PERMITS AND I HIGHLIGHT THOSE SIX DEMOLITION PERMITS, BECAUSE YOU'LL SEE WHENEVER YOU SEE DEVELOPMENTS START UP, YOU'RE GOING TO SEE DEVELOPMENT DEMOLITION PERMITS THAT ARE COMING IN CONJUNCTION WITH THAT.
SO JUST LIKE YOUR THE TAKE FIVE OIL CHANGE THAT'S ABOUT TO START.
[00:20:02]
THERE WAS DEMOLITION PERMIT FOR THAT OFFICE BUILDING THAT WAS ALREADY ON LOCATION THERE.AND THEN THEY BROUGHT IN THEIR PLANS THAT PERMITS HAVE BEEN ISSUED.
THEY SHOULD START CONSTRUCTION SOMETIME LATER THIS WEEK ON THAT.
PERMIT FEES COLLECTED FOR THE FIRST QUARTER, JUST UNDER $70,000.
THAT DOES INCLUDE PERMIT PLAN REVIEW, WATER METER AND IMPACT FEES.
WE'RE STILL WORKING ON GETTING THAT SEPARATED OUT.
SO WE HAVE A MORE ACCURATE VIEW OF THAT. I DID WANT TO BRING UP THAT THE STORM DAMAGE WAIVER FOR THE PERMIT FEES THAT WAS PASSED BY COUNCIL BACK IN MARCH HAS BEEN APPLIED TO 20 RESIDENTIAL APPLICANTS AND SIX COMMERCIAL APPLICANTS, SAVING CITIZENS OF DECATUR $2,319.88 IN FEES FOR THOSE REPAIRS OF THAT DAMAGE.
SO APPRECIATE COUNCIL'S ACTION AND IMPLEMENTING THAT FEE WAIVER.
533 INSPECTIONS WERE COMPLETED DURING THAT FIRST QUARTER.
WE DID LOSE OUR SENIOR BUILDING INSPECTOR DURING MARCH.
HE RESIGNED, MOVED ON TO ANOTHER JOB. WE DID GET THIS JOB POSTED AS QUICKLY AS WE COULD, AND HR HAS HELPED US RECEIVE ABOUT FIVE APPLICATIONS. WE HAVE SOME, INTERVIEWS THAT ARE GOING TO BE CONDUCTED LATER THIS WEEK.
IN THE MEANTIME, WE HAVE WENT AHEAD AND ENTERED INTO A CONTRACT WITH ATLAS MUNICIPAL SERVICES FOR AS NEEDED INSPECTIONS SO THAT IF I'M OUT OF POCKET AND WE NEED A PLUMBING INSPECTOR, WE'RE ABLE TO DO THAT AND WE MAINTAIN OUR LEGAL REQUIREMENTS FOR THE LICENSING THAT WE NEED TO HAVE. OUR HEALTH INSPECTIONS DIVISION ISSUED 48 PERMITS DURING THE QUARTER, COMPLETED 91 INSPECTIONS DURING THAT TIME, BROUGHT IN JUST OVER $3,000 IN PERMIT FEES, AND INCLUDED TWO NEW FOOD ESTABLISHMENTS, ONE NEW MOBILE FOOD UNIT, AND 12 TEMPORARY EVENT PERMITS.
BOTH OF THOSE FACILITIES HAVE TEMPERATURE CONTROL FOR SAFETY FOODS THAT THEY'RE SELLING IN THOSE STORES AND SO THEY HAVE A PERMIT TO GO ALONG WITH THAT. THE FOOD TRUCK CHALLENGE IS UNDERWAY, OR PREPARATION IS UNDERWAY, AS WELL AS THE DECATUR CELTIC FESTIVAL.
CODE ENFORCEMENT. OPENED 40 CASES DURING THE FIRST QUARTER OF THE YEAR AND CLOSED 21 CASES DURING THAT TIME ALSO. THOSE CASES INCLUDED FIVE HIGH WEED AND GRASS CASES.
IN MARCH 23 OUTSIDE STORAGE CASES THAT WE'VE WORKED THROUGH IN THAT TIME AND 8 WORKING WITHOUT A BUILDING PERMIT. VIOLATIONS THAT WERE FOUND.
THEY DID HAVE ONE VIOLATION DURING THAT TIME AND REMOVED 51 SIGNS FROM RIGHT OF WAYS.
SPRING, AS EVERYBODY KNOWS, BRINGS THE HIGH WEEDS AND GRASS AND SO WE'RE VERY BUSY ON THAT.
THAT'S A CONSTANT BATTLE ON THAT. BUT WE WILL KEEP ON THE OUTSIDE STORAGE AS TIME ALLOWS.
WE ARE CONTINUING WITH SUBSTANDARD STRUCTURE CASES THROUGH THE BUILDING STANDARDS COMMISSION.
WE HAVE A CASE THAT'S ONGOING AT THIS TIME THAT'S IN THERE.
AND WE'LL HAVE ANOTHER ONE ON THAT. THAT BOARD DURING MAY.
CODE ENFORCEMENT HAS BEEN A BIG HELP WITH MANAGING THE STORM.
DAMAGING PERMIT, DAMAGE PERMITTING. GOING AROUND, CHECKING TO MAKE SURE THAT THE ROOFING CONTRACTORS AND SIDING CONTRACTORS AND PEOPLE THAT HAVE HAD THOSE PERMITS OR THOSE JOBS GOING ON ARE PERMITTED.
THEY'RE REGISTERED WITH THE CITY THAT WE'RE PROTECTING, THE CITIZENS OF DECATUR, BUT MAKING SURE THAT PEOPLE HAVE INSURANCE FOR THE WORK THAT THEY'RE DOING. THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT FIRST QUARTER TOTALS 124 APPLICATIONS THAT WERE WORKED THROUGH DURING THAT FIRST QUARTER.
THAT INCLUDES 23 PRE-DEVELOPMENT MEETINGS AND DESIGN STUDIO MEETINGS.
THESE DESIGN STUDIO MEETINGS, I'VE TALKED TO YOU ABOUT THEM BEFORE.
[00:25:03]
THEY'VE BECOME A VERY GOOD SPRINGBOARD TO HELP SOME OF THESE PROJECTS MOVE FORWARD QUICKER AND GET INTO PERMITTING QUICKER AND SO WE'RE EXCITED TO BE UTILIZING THAT. AT 69 SITE PLAN REVIEWS, NINE PLANNING APPLICATIONS, FIVE VARIANCES, AND A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT.OUR GIS DEPARTMENT CREATED 65 MAPS DURING THIS FIRST QUARTER, HAD ADDRESS VERIFICATION AND ASSIGNMENTS FOR 279 ADDRESSES. THEY HAD 12 PLAT CASES THAT WERE REVIEWED, CREATED, OR UPDATED SEVEN LAYERS IN OUR GIS SYSTEM AND SCANNED AND FILED SIX DIFFERENT PLAT CASES.
THOSE ADDRESS ASSIGNMENTS THAT YOU SEE THERE, THE MAJORITY OF THOSE ARE BETWEEN THESE TWO PROJECTS THAT WAS ADDRESSING THE CHISHOLM APARTMENTS. ALL OF THE DIFFERENT APARTMENTS THAT ARE ON THAT PROPERTY AND THE FIRST PHASE OF THE PALOMA TRAILS DEVELOPMENT AND ASSIGNING ADDRESSES TO ALL OF THOSE PROPERTIES. THAT'S ALL I HAVE AT THIS TIME.
ANY QUESTIONS? COMMENTS? IT SEEMS LIKE A LOT.
IT ALWAYS IS, BUT THAT'S GOOD. YES, SIR. NICE WORK.
THANK YOU. FIRE DEPARTMENT. GOOD EVENING. GOOD EVENING. I'LL FLY THROUGH THIS SINCE WAYNE TOOK FIVE MINUTES EXTRA.
OUR FIRST QUARTER INCIDENTS, WE RUN 801 CALLS.
OBVIOUSLY, MOST OF THE TIME, THOSE ARE THE MAJORITY OF MEDICAL.
COMPARE THAT TO FIRST QUARTER LAST YEAR. WHICH I DIDN'T CHANGE THE FOUR, BUT 668.
I BUILT THIS AT 415, SO I WAS RUNNING A LITTLE LATE.
FIRE RECOVERY SO FAR. SUBMITTED 15,255. RECEIVED 6269 .95.
JUST STOP AND MENTION. CHIEF MERCER IS SWAMPED CONSTANTLY.
I DIDN'T COUNT ONES THAT WALK IN THE DOOR OR JUST IN THE FIELD.
FOOD TRUCKS AT THREE. OBVIOUSLY, IN THE NEXT TWO WEEKS, THAT'LL DOUBLE OR TRIPLE.
SINCE THE FOOD TRUCK CHALLENGE 62 PLAN REVIEWS SEVEN PUBLIC EDUCATION EVENTS, TWO OF WHICH WAS LEADERSHIP DECATUR AND JUNIOR LEADERSHIP DECATUR, WHICH WE LOVE. AND I'M JUST SAYING WE GET PICKED THE TOP ONE OF THE DEAL EVERY YEAR.
SO CPR CLASSES, WE HAVE 12 CLASSES 60 STUDENTS IN DURING THIS QUARTER AND THEN FOUR HOMES, WHICH AMOUNTED TO 12 SMOKE ALARMS. AND THOSE FOUR HOMES HAD NONE.
SO AS FAR AS PERMIT FEES, WE'VE HAD, FIVE CONSTRUCTIONS AT 1350, FOOD TRUCKS AT 385 AND THEN GOVWELL. OBVIOUSLY THAT'S THE SOFTWARE THAT DEVELOPMENT IS USING, AND WE'RE SLOWLY GETTING OUR FEES OVER THERE.
SO THAT'S IT. 1392 THIS QUARTER, 2009 2780 I STARTED THROWING THIS IN HERE, JUST TO GIVE YOU AN IDEA OF WHAT OUR DEPARTMENT DOES PER PERSON. THIS IS A TOTAL HOURS. SO OF OUR 16 EMPLOYEES AND PART TIME STAFF, JANUARY WAS 378 HOURS OF TRAINING, 352 IN FEBRUARY THE 744 WENT UP QUITE A BIT BECAUSE WE HAD FOUR DIFFERENT LIVE FIRE TRAININGS DURING THAT MONTH. SO THAT BROUGHT 20 TO 25 PEOPLE ON HAND FOR 4 OR 5 HOURS AT A TIME.
SO THAT TOTALIT FOR THE FIRST QUARTER IS 1474 AND MY ALWAYS FAVORITE IS QUESTIONS PICTURE.
ALL RIGHT. QUESTIONS. I WAS ONLY THREE MINUTES.
WAYNE YOU TOOK 11 MINUTES. COMMENTS. OTHER THAN THE TIMING OF THESE MEETINGS OR SESSIONS.
ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU SIR. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU, CITY, FOR ALL THOSE QUARTERLY REPORTS AND AT THIS TIME, WE HAVE MET OUR APPOINTED MEETING TIME. AND WE ARE AT 6:07 ON APRIL 28TH.

IT'S OUR FIRST READING OF AN ORDINANCE TO RECONSTITUTE THE AIRPORT ADVISORY BOARD AND CITY MANAGER PROVIDE AN UPDATE.GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. MY UPDATE WILL COME FROM ITEM TWO, WHICH STARTS ON PAGE 22 OF YOUR PACKETS. SORRY ABOUT THAT. JUST A BRIEF HISTORY LESSON.
THE AIRPORT ADVISORY BOARD WAS ORIGINALLY CREATED BY ORDINANCE IN 1994, AND IT FUNCTIONED ALL THE WAY UP UNTIL APRIL OF 2005, WHEN IT CEASED TO FUNCTION, AND IT HAS NOT BEEN IN EXISTENCE SINCE THEN.
AND IN ORDER TO DO THAT EFFECTIVELY, WE NEEDED TO GIVE SOME ATTENTION TO THE ORDINANCE.
SO WE HAVE UPDATED OUR ORDINANCE. YOU CAN SEE STARTING ON PAGE 23 AND CONTINUING ON OVER THROUGH PAGES 25 AND SIX, THE ORDINANCE IS SAYS MODERNIZED. IT'S IN LINE WITH THE REST OF OUR ADVISORY BOARDS IN THE CITY, SPECIFICALLY CALLING OUT SEVEN BOARD MEMBERS, MENTIONING THAT THEY MUST BE MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY, SPECIFICALLY THE CITY OF DECATUR AND THEN IT JUST SETS FORTH THEIR TERM LIMITS AND THEN THE GENERAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF THAT BOARD AND SO IF YOU APPROVE THE ORDINANCE AT OUR NEXT COUNCIL MEETING, THAT WILL TIE IN NICELY WITH OUR DESIRE TO OPEN UP A CALL FOR APPLICATIONS TO THE AIRPORT ADVISORY BOARD, AND YOU WILL FIND A SINGLE PACKET LAYING AT YOUR SEAT THAT IS A DRAFT OF THAT CALL THAT PUBLIC NOTIFICATION WITH A CALL FOR APPLICATIONS. IT DOES SPEAK SPECIFICALLY TO THE NEW ORDINANCE, AND WE'LL LEAVE THE CALL OPEN TO MAY 30TH.
SO BETWEEN NOW AND MAY 30TH, WE'LL BE COLLECTING APPLICANTS APPLICATIONS AND PACKETS AND VETTING THEM AND THEN AT YOUR NEXT COUNCIL MEETING YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO APPROVE THIS ORDINANCE AND SO THOSE TWO ITEMS WILL TIME NICELY.
WE'LL APPROVE MEMBERS UNDER THE NEW ORDINANCE.
AND I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY SPECIFIC QUESTIONS IF YOU HAVE THEM OR DEFER TO THE APPROPRIATE STAFF.
[00:45:03]
ALL RIGHT. SO YOU SAID BE PART OF THE COMMUNITY.SO IS IT KIND OF LIKE NSBA EITHER LIVE IN THE CITY LIMITS, OWN PROPERTY IN THE CITY LIMITS, OR BUSINESS IN THE CITY? GOOD QUESTION. EDDIE.
THE ORDINANCE SPECIFICALLY SAYS THAT APPLICANTS MUST BE RESIDENTS OF THE CITY OF DECATUR OWN REAL PROPERTY WITHIN SAID CITY, OR BE AN OWNER OR CO-OWNER OF A BUSINESS WITHIN SAID CITY.
AWESOME. THANK YOU. AND THAT WILL BE PART OF THE VETTING PROCESS.
AS THESE APPLICATIONS COME IN, WE'LL VET THEM IN A SIMILAR FASHION WE DO TO ALL THE OTHER BOARDS AND THEN IF THERE ARE MORE THAN SEVEN APPLICATIONS, STAFF IS PREPARED TO RUN THROUGH THE PACES TO GET IT DOWN TO THE SEVEN MOST APPROPRIATE CANDIDATES BASED ON SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION PROVIDED. ALL RIGHT. VERY GOOD. THANK YOU. SIR.
LEGAL COUNSEL HAS REVIEWED THE DOCUMENT. VERY GOOD.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS? ALL RIGHT. THAT IS THE FIRST READING.
SO WE WILL MOVE ON. CONSIDER AND TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTION.
[3. CONSIDER AND TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTION TO APPROVE A CONTRACT WITH FUQUAY, INC. IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $91,008.00 TO PERFORM WORK RELATED TO THE 2025 MANHOLE REHABILITATION PROGRAM AND AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE NECESSARY DOCUMENTS.]

[4. CONSIDER AND TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTION TO APPROVE A PERFORMANCE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE DECATUR ECOMONIC DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION (“EDC”) AND CARDINAL PAINT APPROVED BY THE DECATUR EDC BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE NECESSARY DOCUMENTS.]
CONSIDER AND TAKE APPROPRIATE ACTION TO APPROVE PERFORMANCE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE DECATUR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION AND CARDINAL PAINT.GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. KEVIN HOLZBOG DECATUR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION.
I DO NOT HAVE A PROCLAMATION FOR ANYBODY TONIGHT, BUT I HOPE YOU WON'T HOLD THAT AGAINST ME.
I FEEL EQUALLY AS EXCITED ABOUT WHAT I'M PRESENTING TO PRESENTING ON TONIGHT TO YOU GUYS.
SO TONIGHT TALKING ABOUT AN EXPANSION PROJECT FOR AN EXISTING MANUFACTURER IN DECATUR.
AND UNLIKE RECRUITMENT PROJECTS THAT WE STAND BEFORE YOU AND TALK ABOUT PRESENT SOMETIMES AND THE DIFFERENCE IN A RECRUITMENT PROJECT AND EXPANSION PROJECT TO ME IS A RECRUITMENT PROJECT IS IS COMMITTING TO A CAPITAL INVESTMENT AND EXPENDITURE BASED ON THEIR BELIEF INDICATOR.
AN EXPANSION PROJECT IS MAKING AN INVESTMENT BASED ON THEIR EXPERIENCE INDICATOR.
AND I THINK THAT DIFFERENTIATION IS IMPORTANT.
AND TO ME, IT MAKES ME ALMOST MORE EXCITED WHENEVER WE GET TO TALK ABOUT EXPANSION PROJECTS.
SO THE PROJECT BEFORE YOU TONIGHT IS RELATED TO EXPANSION OF CARDINAL PAINT AND POWDER AT EAGLE'S LANDING BUSINESS PARK TO CREATE MORE QUALITY JOBS IN OUR COMMUNITY AND BEFORE I GO THROUGH ALL OF THE DEAL POINTS THAT I DO, EVERY TIME I PRESENT TO YOU ALL, I WANT TO EXPRESS APPRECIATION TO CARDINAL PAINT'S LEADERSHIP TEAM, ALL OF THEIR STAFF. THESE MEN AND WOMEN PRODUCE PRODUCTS EVERY DAY AT THAT, AT THEIR FACILITY.
THEY GET SHIPPED AND ULTIMATELY END UP ALL OVER THE WORLD.
AND IT COMES RIGHT OUT OF DECATUR, TEXAS. AND SO WE WANT TO EXPRESS OUR APPRECIATION TO THEM. I ALSO WANT TO THANK OUR PARTNERS AT THE CITY OF DECATUR WHO'VE BEEN INVOLVED IN THIS PROJECT. THEY'VE BEEN PROFESSIONALS THROUGHOUT THE PROCESS AND THEN I'D BE REMISS IF I DIDN'T SAY THANKS TO MARK REYNOLDS.
I MEAN, MATT REYNOLDS FOR HIS WORK AS THE HEAD OF BEAUREU FOR FOR THE EDC.
JUST AS THEY SAID THEY WOULD. AND THEY'VE BEEN A WONDERFUL PARTNER, NOT ONLY FOR US.
[00:50:03]
AND I DON'T HAVE DETAILS ON NUMBERS, BUT THEY HAVE BEEN AN INCREDIBLE CONTRIBUTOR TO THE COMMUNITY.YOU SEE THEIR NAME, YOU SEE THE FOUNDATION THAT'S ATTACHED TO THEM.
YOU SEE THEIR THE ATTACHED FOUNDATION'S LOGO ALL OVER THE COMMUNITY.
IT'S NOT ONLY ABOUT THE JOB CREATION, THE TAX BASE THAT'S CREATED, BUT IT'S ALSO ABOUT WHAT TYPE OF CORPORATE CITIZEN ARE THESE COMPANIES AND CARDINAL PAINT STANDS, STANDS ABOVE MANY. SO THE COMPANY HONESTLY HAS BEEN TALKING WITH EDC ABOUT EXPANSION SINCE THE DAY THAT THEY OPENED ORIGINALLY.
THAT CONVERSATION HAS CONVERSATIONS CONTINUED OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS AND IT'S LED US HERE TONIGHT. SO IN THE DETAILS, WE'LL WORK THROUGH THESE THROUGH THE THREE PRIMARY SECTIONS, WHICH ARE THE DEVELOPER COVENANTS, COMPANIES COVENANTS, THE COVENANTS AND ALSO THE THE EFFECTS OF DEFAULT.
A CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY WITHIN 12 MONTHS FOLLOWING THE COMMENCEMENT OF CONSTRUCTION.
THE FACILITY WILL BE OPERATIONAL WITHIN ONE MONTH OF RECEIPT OF CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY AND ON THE JOB CREATION SIDE, WITHIN SIX MONTHS FOLLOWING THE COMMENCEMENT OF OPERATIONS.
THE COMPANY SHALL EMPLOY AND MAINTAIN A MINIMUM OF 100 FULL TIME EMPLOYEES AT THE FACILITY AND MAINTAIN A MINIMUM OF $3.3 MILLION IN ANNUAL PAYROLL AT THE AT THE SITE. WE'LL HAVE FOUR ANNUAL COMPLIANCE VERIFICATIONS RELATED TO THOSE JOBS.
AND SO WHAT THAT MEANS ADMINISTRATIVELY IS EVERY YEAR THERE'S A PARTICULAR DATE, WE SEND OUT A FORM AND THE COMPANIES PROVIDE US WITH INFORMATION, WHETHER IT'S TEXAS WORKFORCE COMMISSION INFORMATION, IRS INFORMATION.
IT'S OUTLINED AND DETAILED IN THE AGREEMENTS THAT Y'ALL HAVE BEFORE YOU ON THE EDC COVENANT SIDE.
ON THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE, IT'S PERFORMANCE BASED, AS ALL OF OUR PROJECTS ARE.
SO ON THIS PARTICULAR PROJECT, OUR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS EQUAL TO 7% OF TOTAL QUALIFIED EXPENDITURES EXPENDED AT THE PROPERTY, NOT TO EXCEED $280,000 IN TOTAL. SO AS AN EXAMPLE, BECAUSE THIS IS STRUCTURED SLIGHTLY DIFFERENTLY FROM OTHER PROJECTS WE'VE BROUGHT BEFORE YOU. I WANT TO PROVIDE KIND OF A SCENARIO TO HELP YOU UNDERSTAND JUST IN DETAIL.
SO IT'S FULLY TRANSPARENT. IF THE COMPANY ONLY SPENDS THE MINIMUM $3 MILLION THAT IS REQUIRED IN THE PERFORMANCE AGREEMENT, THEN THEY'LL RECEIVE THE 7% OR $210,000. IF THEY SPEND $4 MILLION, THEN THEY'LL RECEIVE THE MAXIMUM $280,000. AND SO IT'S REALLY AN INCENTIVE TO GO ABOVE AND BEYOND THAT MINIMUM.
BUT IF THE PROJECT GOES BEYOND THE 4 MILLION I'M SURE MR. SILVERSTEIN, WHO'S HERE TONIGHT, WON'T BE HAPPY AND THEY'LL ALSO NOT RECEIVE ANY ADDITIONAL INCENTIVES ABOVE THE $280,000.
AND SO WHATEVER THAT AMOUNT IS IN THE PERFORMANCE AGREEMENT, YOU'LL SEE IT'S OUTLINED TO BE REIMBURSED AS FOLLOWS 40% OF THE REIMBURSABLE AMOUNT, NOT TO EXCEED $112,000 WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE CEO OR THE CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY, 30% OF THE REIMBURSABLE AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $84,000 WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF THE ORIGINAL INCENTIVE PAYMENT.
20% OF THE REIMBURSABLE AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $56,000 WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE TWO YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF THE ORIGINAL INCENTIVE PAYMENT AND THEN 10%, WHICH IS THE FINAL 10% OF THE REIMBURSABLE AMOUNT, NOT TO EXCEED 28,000 WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE THREE YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF THE ORIGINAL INCENTIVE PAYMENT AND JUST AS A REMINDER, THE TOTAL INCENTIVE WILL NOT EXCEED 280,000.
AS FAR AS THE EFFECTS OF DEFAULT, IF THE COMPANY DEFAULTS ON ANY OF THE DEAL POINTS, THEN ANY FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE PROVIDED IS DUE BACK TO THE EDC REIMBURSED BACK TO THE EDC. SO STEVE SILVERSTEIN, THE CHAIRMAN OF CARLISLE PAINT AND POWDER, IS HERE TONIGHT TO MAKE A FEW COMMENTS AND ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS AND IF IT'S OKAY WITH YOU ALL, I'LL STAND BY FOR QUESTIONS FOLLOWING STEVE'S COMMENTS.
THANK YOU KEVIN. GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL. GOOD EVENING. BEFORE THIS COUNCIL.
FIRST HISTORICALLY, WE'VE BEEN HERE MORE THAN A COUPLE OF YEARS.
AND SO, AS A MATTER OF FACT, TODAY IS VERY CLOSE TO THE ANNIVERSARY, OUR FIVE YEAR ANNIVERSARY.
[00:55:04]
WHEN WE ENTERED INTO OUR FIRST AGREEMENT WITH DECATUR WE HAD A VERBAL AGREEMENT BACK IN PROBABLY AROUND THE MIDDLE OF FEBRUARY OF 2020. AND YOU PROBABLY REALIZE WHAT YOU WERE DOING AROUND THE END OF FEBRUARY 2020, WEARING YOUR MASK AND HANGING OUT AT HOME.BUT IN ANY EVENT. SO WE WERE ABLE TO BUILD AND TODAY IS WITHIN A WEEK OF OUR ANNIVERSARY OF OUR OPEN HOUSE WHEN WE COMPLETED CONSTRUCTION, BECAUSE WE BUILT THE THING ALL DURING COVID AND GOT IT DONE.
SINCE THAT TIME, WE'VE HIRED A BUNCH OF FOLKS AND AND WE'RE VERY PROUD TO SAY MOST OF THEM ARE FROM WISE COUNTY AND FROM DECATUR AND RIGHT NOW, RIGHT NOW, WE'VE HIRED AT LEAST FOUR PEOPLE FROM DECATUR WHO DIDN'T KNOW THE NAME CARDINAL FIVE YEARS AGO, WHO ARE NOW PRETTY MUCH RUNNING THE PLACE. AND SO AND THESE ARE PEOPLE BORN AND RAISED IN DECATUR.
WE DID NOT JUST BRING PEOPLE IN FROM OUR OTHER FACILITIES.
WE MOST OF OUR PEOPLE ARE FROM DECATUR. OUR FIRST EXPERIENCE WITH DECATUR, WITH THE BUILDING AND BY THE WAY, I'VE BUILT BUILDINGS AND BEEN INVOLVED IN PROJECTS ALL OVER THE COUNTRY.
DECATUR FAR AND AWAY THE BEST EXPERIENCE WE'VE EVER HAD.
I DON'T KNOW IF YOU REALIZE IT OR NOT, OR IF YOUR CITIZENS REALIZE IT, BUT YOUR STAFF WAS WONDERFUL.
I MEAN YOUR CITY ENGINEER, EARL. IF HE RETIRES.
WE DON'T BUILD. I MEAN, HE RETIRED. HE'S RETIRED.
PROJECTS CANCELED. I FEEL LIKE HE WOULD COME OUT OF.
HEY, WE COULD WORK OUT, GET HIM OUT OF RETIREMENT.
NO, BUT I MEAN YOUR FORMER CITY MANAGER. PHENOMENAL.
I MEAN, GOT EVERYTHING DONE. YOUR CURRENT CITY MANAGER WAS THE FIRE CHIEF AND I WANT TO TELL YOU, I CAN'T TELL YOU THAT THE BIGGEST PROBLEM THAT PEOPLE LIKE US WHO ARE BUILDING COMMERCIAL PROPERTIES AND INDUSTRIAL PROBLEMS HAS IS FIGHTING WITH THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. YOUR FIRE DEPARTMENT WANTED A SAFE PROJECT, MEET THE CODE AND COOPERATE WITH US AND HELPED US IN EVERY WAY POSSIBLE. AND I HAVE TO TELL YOU THAT WE REALLY APPRECIATED THAT FROM BOTH OF THEM AND THEY'RE NOT THE, YOU KNOW, THEY'RE FIRM BUT THEY REALLY DID. THEIR GOAL WAS TO GET THE JOB DONE AND THEY WERE VERY HELPFUL.
I MEAN, ALL ALONG THE WAY, EVERYONE FROM EVERYONE IN THE CITY, IN ALL HONESTY, WAS I MEAN, OBVIOUSLY YOU ALWAYS HAVE LITTLE PROBLEMS OUT THERE, ESPECIALLY WITH THAT. NO ONE'S EVER DONE THAT.
FOR EXAMPLE, IN OUR PROPERTY. NEVER, EVER DONE A SOIL SAMPLE OUT THERE BECAUSE THERE IS NO SOIL.
IT'S ALL ROCK. BUT SO. SO WE HAD SOME CONSTRUCTION ISSUES, BUT IT'S FINE.
THIS PROJECT HERE IS MORE THAN IT LOOKS LIKE.
AND SO THIS IS REALLY A VERY BIG STEP FOR US AND IT WILL BE A VERY BIG STEP FOR DECATUR.
THE REASON THE BACK HALF OF THE PROJECT IS BASICALLY IS WAREHOUSE.
THE WAREHOUSE REALLY ALLOWS US TO INCREASE OUR MANUFACTURING CAPACITY AT THIS PLANT BY ABOUT OVER, OVER A 33% 3% INCREASE IN OUR CAPACITY AT THE PLANT.
THE WAREHOUSE ALLOWED US TO DO IT. THE FRONT PART IS THE OFFICE BUILDING.
THE OFFICE BUILDING ALLOWS US TO MOVE OUR CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS FROM NEVADA TO HERE.
SO THIS WILL BE WHEN THIS PROJECT IS OVER. CARDINAL WILL BE A DECATUR WILL BE OUR CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS AND I'LL BE VERY CANDID WITH YOU. THERE'S NO WAY THAT WE'RE NOT GOING TO BE BACK HERE IN 3 TO 5 YEARS AFTER THAT'S DONE, TO BUILD A REAL BUILDING FOR OUR CORPORATE OFFICE.
THAT'S THAT. IT WILL BE OUT OF THAT VERY QUICKLY.
SO THAT WAS THE PLAN ALL ALONG AND WHEN WE MET WITH TOM WAY BACK AND IN THE BEGINNING, THAT'S HOW IT WAS AND WITH RESPECT TO WHAT KEVIN SAID ABOUT OUR COMMITMENT TO THE TO CHARITY AND HELPING OUT IN THE COMMUNITY, WE'RE COMMITTED TO THAT.
AS MANY OF YOU OBVIOUSLY KNOW THAT I WOULD BE SHOCKED IF ANY OF YOU ARE ON ANY CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION AFFILIATED IN DECATUR WISE COUNTY, WHERE WE'RE NOT INVOLVED. THERE'S ONLY ONE PLACE IN DECATUR THAT WE'RE NOT INVOLVED.
THE POLICE DEPARTMENT. I CAN'T GET THESE GUYS TO CALL ME BACK.
I WANT TO GIVE THEM MONEY AND THEY WON'T CALL BACK. THEY DO A GREAT JOB PROTECTING US.
EXACTLY. THEY'RE OUT ON CALL ALL THE TIME. [INAUDIBLE], GREG.
HAVE THEY CALLED PARKS? YEAH, THAT WAS NOTHING.
WE WANTED TO HELP YOU WITH YOUR SCHOLARSHIP FUND.
[01:00:02]
WE GAVE THE MONEY. WE GAVE THE SHERIFF'S DEPARTMENT.DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA? NO, SIR. WE WERE THE PRIMARY SPONSOR FOR TWO YEARS OF SANTA'S DEPUTIES OF.
WELL, WE CAN MAKE AN ARRANGEMENT TO GET YOU GUYS TOGETHER.
WE REALLY DON'T. WE APPRECIATE ALL YOU DO. YOU GUYS ARE.
WE GOT A JOB FOR YOU.[INAUDIBLE] YOU GUYS HAVE DONE A PHENOMENAL JOB FOR US AND WE APPRECIATE, YOU KNOW, THE CARE YOU TAKE WATCHING OUR PROPERTY AND EVERYTHING ELSE.
WE'RE JUST HAPPY TO HAVE YOU HERE. WELL WE'RE IT'S A WE CONSIDER DECATUR TO BE OUR PARTNERS AND WE'RE WELL, I, YOU KNOW, I THE LAST TIME I DROVE BY THE HIGH SCHOOL, I WAS WITH THE PRESIDENT OF OUR COMPANY WHO'S BASED HERE, AND I TOLD THEM, I GO, YOU KNOW, SOMEWHERE IN THAT SCHOOL IS OUR NEXT PRESIDENT, BUT HE DOESN'T KNOW IT YET.
SO WE'RE WELL, THANK YOU SO MUCH. I MEAN, I WANT TO ECHO A COUPLE OF THINGS.
YOUR FOUNDATION HAS BEEN MORE THAN GENEROUS AS A CORPORATE PARTNER AND AS A COMMUNITY PARTNER AND YOU HAVE MADE A GREAT IMPACT TO OUR COMMUNITY THROUGH THE UNITED WAY, ALL THE AFFILIATE AGENCIES, IN ADDITION TO OUR SCHOOL DISTRICT PARTNERING WITH THEM AND OUR MANUFACTURING DAY, WE'VE HAD STUDENTS OUT AT YOUR LOCATION AND LEARNING ABOUT WHAT YOU DO, AND MANY OF THEM ARE VERY EXCITED ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY WHEN THEY GET FINISHED WITH SCHOOL TO COME TO WORK FOR YOU AND WE APPRECIATE YOUR AGAIN, YOU BEING HERE AND BEING SO MUCH A PART OF OUR COMMUNITY.
IT MEANS SO MUCH TO US. WELL THANK YOU. AND YOU KNOW, IN THAT FACILITY, WE HAVE A LABORATORY, WE HAVE CHEMISTS IN THERE THAT WE GET FROM THE SOME OF THE FINER CHEMISTRY SCHOOLS IN THE COUNTRY.
AND THIS IS GOING TO ALLOW US TO INCREASE THE SIZE OF OUR LAB BY ALMOST 50%.
SO IT'S VERY IMPORTANT AND BY THE WAY, AND THAT LABORATORY IN THERE THAT WON'T BE IN THAT BUILDING FOR A LONG TIME, THERE'LL BE ANOTHER BUILDING WITH JUST A LAB. WELL, I CAN REMEMBER MYSELF AND THE FORMER MAYOR OF DECATUR, MARTIN WOODRUFF. YOU TOOK US ON A TOUR OF YOUR FACILITY.
I'LL NEVER FORGET. WE'RE LOOKING DIRECTLY OUT ONE OF THESE DOORS TO THE SOUTH AND TALKING ABOUT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT US ABOUT THE EXPANSION COMING UP AND I'M SO THRILLED THAT WE'RE DOING THAT.
AND I'M SO THRILLED TO HEAR THAT MAYBE IN ANOTHER FIVE YEARS WE'LL BE DOING SOMETHING ADDITIONAL.
NOT HERE. AND NO LONGER. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
THANK YOU SIR. HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY OTHER QUESTIONS Y'ALL MIGHT HAVE.
COUNCIL. KEVIN. THE HEAD COUNT OF 100 IS THAT OVERALL, ONCE THE EXPANSION IS DONE FOR THE ENTIRE COMPANY, OR IS THAT AN ADD OF 100? NO, THAT IS A NET TOTAL FOR THE ENTIRE FACILITY.
