I'M TRYING TO GET AWAY FROM THAT WORD.
BUT, UM, ANYWAY, SO I'M CURIOUS ABOUT THAT, BUT I DIDN'T KNOW IF IT HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH, UM, THE BEAUTIFY, THE BEAUTIFY THING GOING ON HERE.
SO IF THERE WOULD BE FURTHER CLARIFICATION, I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE THAT.
UM, THE BENEDICT, YES, I VOTE FOR THAT.
UH, I WAS KIND OF CURIOUS ABOUT GETTING THE FORDS, UH, FROM SOMEBODY ELSE AND NOT, UH, LOCAL EF I WOULD BE CURIOUS.
AND THEN, UM, NUMBER 11, I'M NOT SURE I KNOW WHAT ALL THAT MEANS.
STRATEGIC PLANNING AND ASSESSMENT AND STUFF.
I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE MORE CLARIFICATION ON THAT.

I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S GONNA GET COVERED IN THE, UH, THE COMING, WHERE'S MY TIME? OH, 25 SECONDS.
UM, THE VENUE AT THE OLD, UH, I THINK IT WAS THE OLD AIRPORT, WAS AT THE LAST MEETING.

I WOULD LIKE TO SEE ABOUT THAT.

UM, THE PROJECT IS MOVING FORWARD, AND THIS IS JUST ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE HAVE TO DO TO KEEP IT MOVING.
YOUR NAME FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE? JOANNA MALDONADO.
SO THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON, UH, FOR A WHILE, SO, AND SORRY, YOU GUYS GOTTA TURN OFF YOUR MICS.
IF NOT, IT'S GONNA INTERFERE JUST FROM EXPERIENCE.
SO, UH, UH, THIS, UH, MR. JARVIS, I KNOW THAT, UH, YOU KNOW, UH, STINGER, IT'S GONNA BE ON FOUR PHASES.
THERE'S GONNA BE FOUR PHASES ON IT.
SO, UH, AND IT'S GONNA BE FROM A BUSINESS SEVEN, SEVEN ON THE, FROM HEB ALL THE WAY TO, I THINK IT'S PRETTY FENDER.
IT'S FULL, IT'S THE FULL STINGER ROAD FROM 77 TO 77, BUT IT'S GONNA BE PHASED OUT.
BUT THERE'S, BUT THERE'S PHASES, RIGHT? BUT THE FIRST PHASE IS GONNA BE FROM BUSINESS, FROM I, UH, HEB ALL THE WAY TO FANNING.
SO THAT'S HOW, THAT'S HOW THE PHASE IS GONNA BE AT.
SO WE GOT THE STREETS THAT ARE COMING.
IT, IT'S GONNA BE, HOPEFULLY IT'S GONNA BE, YOU KNOW, WE DONE, UH, WITH, UH, SIDEWALKS, STREETS, STREET LIGHTS, SO IT'S GONNA BE, YOU KNOW, FOR MORE, FOR WALKING AND STUFF LIKE THAT.

WELL, AS LONG AS THEY DON'T, UH, THEY SAY NAY.
SO I GOT A COM, UH, I GOT A MOTION BY COMMISSIONER MORALES SECOND BY COMMISSIONER NAVAR NUMBER TWO.
[Items 3 - 6]
MAYOR COMMISSIONERS.ITEMS 3, 4, 5, AND SIX ARE ALL INTERRELATED.
WE HAVE MR. DONALD BRINKMAN HERE, UH, FROM CSRS.
WE CAN KIND OF GO THROUGH 'EM.
AND THERE IS A METHOD TO THIS, SO WE WANT TO EXPLAIN IT AND, UH, LET MR. BRINKMAN INTRODUCE HIMSELF.
BUT AGAIN, UH, WE'D LIKE TO TAKE 3, 4, 5, AND SIX TOGETHER.
AND THAT'S THE INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT WITH NORTH TEXAS.
NORTH CENTRAL TEXAS COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS.
UM, RFP NUMBER 20 23 0 2 8 FOR GRANTS MANAGEMENT.
UH, THERE'S AN, UH, ALSO A TASK ORDER FOR CSRS UNDER THE SAME INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT, UM, FOR GRANTS MANAGEMENT NOT TO EXCEED 2 5200 50,000, UH, CONSIDERATION POSSIBLE ACTION ENTERED LOCAL AGREEMENT REGION ONE EDUCATIONAL SERVICE CENTER, UH, UNDER RFP 23 0 1 27 FOR PROFESSIONAL CONSULTING SERVICES.
AND FINALLY, THE CONSIDERATION, POSSIBLE ACTION TO ACCEPT THE TASK ORDER PROPOSED BY C-S-R-S-L-L-C UNDER THE
[00:20:01]
SAME INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT, UH, WITH REGION ONE RFP 23 0 1 27 FOR PROFESSIONAL CONSULTING SERVICES, NOT TO EXCEED $200,000.UH, GOOD AFTERNOON, COMMISSIONERS.
UH, SO MY NAME IS DONALD BRINKMAN WITH CSRS.
UH, JUST TO GIVE YOU A QUICK OVERVIEW OF EACH ONE OF THOSE ITEMS. SO, THE INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT WITH NORTH CENTRAL TEXAS COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS, THEY DID A FEDERAL PROCUREMENT, FEDERAL AND STATE PROCUREMENT, UH, FOR GRANTS MANAGEMENT, UH, ACROSS THE STATE OF TEXAS.
AND OUR FIRM WAS SELECTED, UH, AS ONE OF, I FORGET HOW MANY, BUT WE WERE SELECTED AND AWARDED, UH, GRANTS AND MANAGEMENT WITH THAT COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS.
AND THAT ALLOWS Y'ALL TO PIGGYBACK AT AN INTERLOCAL, UH, ON THOSE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES.
SO, THE GRANTS MANAGEMENT PORTION, UH, AFTER SPEAKING WITH FRED ABOUT THE, UH, THE NEED FOR BEING PREPARED FOR STORMS, UH, THIS IS GRANTS MANAGEMENT SPECIFICALLY RELATED TO STORM EVENTS.
SO IF A FEDERAL DISASTER IS DECLARED, UH, TO SEEK FEMA REIMBURSEMENT, THE TASK ORDER WOULD APPLY.
SO TO GET TO THE HEART OF THE TASK ORDER, IT ONLY HAPPENS IF THERE IS A NEED.
SO EACH FEDERAL CONTRACT HAS TO HAVE A N TO EXCEED LIMIT.
AND SO THAT'S JUST A VERY ARBITRARY NUMBER BASED ON EXPERIENCE THAT PROBABLY GETS YOU ABOUT FOUR MONTHS OF DISASTER RECOVERY SERVICES AS IT RELATES TO FEMA COMPLIANCE.
UM, IT ONLY GOES INTO EFFECT IF YOU NEED IT.
SO IF A VERY MINOR STORM HAPPENS AND, UH, YOU'RE ABLE TO HANDLE IT ALL IN HOUSE, YOU DON'T NEED THE HELP OF A CONSULTANT, UH, YOU DON'T CALL US, WE DON'T BILL YOU, AND IT'S FINE.
UM, SO THAT'S THE FIRST TWO ITEMS. THE INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT AND THE TASK ORDER IS RELATED TO THAT INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT.
THE, UH, THE THIRD ITEM WOULD BE THE INTERLOCAL WITH REGION ONE.
REGION ONE DID THE SAME THING.
THEY DID A FEDERAL PROCUREMENT, BUT THEY DID IT FOR SEVERAL DIFFERENT SERVICES.
AND OUR FIRM WAS QUALIFIED FOR PROJECT MANAGEMENT, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, AND, UH, PLANNING.
SO THIS WOULDN'T BE SPECIFICALLY FOR PROJECT MANAGEMENT.
TYPICALLY, FROM THE FEDERAL STANDARD, IT'S 75%, UH, FEDERAL, 25% LOCAL.
HOWEVER, IN THE LAST 10 YEARS OF STORM EVENTS, THEY'VE GONE 90 10.
SO YOU WOULD BE ON THE HOOK FOR 10%, UH, ON THE PROJECT MANAGEMENT SIDE.
AND AGAIN, THAT IS ONLY IF YOU NEED IT.
SO WHEN YOU GO IN ON THE GRANTS MANAGEMENT SIDE AND YOU GO DO THE DAMAGE ASSESSMENTS, YOU'LL SEE IF YOU ACTUALLY HAVE PROJECTS THAT ARE IN NEED OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT SUPPORT AND MAKE THAT DECISION, DO WE ACTIVATE THIS OR NOT? THIS TASK ORDER.
SO IT JUST STAYS DORMANT UNTIL IT'S NEEDED.
UM, AND RUNS CONCURRENT WITH THE INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT AND REGION ONE, EVEN THOUGH THEIR EDUCATION SERVICE CENTER DID A CROSS THE BOARD FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES.
AND THAT'S HOW THAT CAME ABOUT.
I WAS, UH, ONE THING I FORGOT TO MENTION.
ON THE GRANTS MANAGEMENT SIDE, IT'S A HUNDRED PERCENT REIMBURSEMENT FROM FEMA UP TO 5% OF YOUR CLAIM, YOUR FEMA CLAIM LESS INSURANCE.
I JUST WANT TO, I MEAN, THIS IS, I I THINK THIS IS WONDERFUL THAT WE ARE ACTUALLY LOOKING TO GET AHEAD OF ANY POTENTIAL PROBLEMS THAT WE HAVE.
UH, AND I, I JUST DON'T WANNA COME IN, FRED, AND FOR, FOR THINKING AHEAD HERE IN CASE OF EMERGENCIES OR PROBLEMS, PARTICULARLY IN THIS YEAR.
UH, AND SO, YES, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR BEING HERE.
WE, IT'S GREAT TO KNOW THAT WE HAVE A BACKUP SYSTEM HERE.
JUST TO KIND OF SAY THIS IN ANOTHER WAY.
THIS PUTS US MORE CLOSELY AT THE FRONT OF A LINE FOR SERVICES IF WE NEED THEM.
SO AM AM I SAYING THAT RIGHT? YES.
YOU'RE, YOU'RE, YOU'RE AHEAD OF THE GAME.
SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THIS.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? COMM? NONE.
DO I HAVE A MOTION? MOTION TO APPROVE ITEMS 3, 3, 4, 5, AND SIX.
I GOT A MOTION BY COMMISSIONER GOODMAN.
SECOND BY COMMISSIONER MORALES SECOND.
THE ONLY THING I DID WANT TO ADD IS THAT, UH, DONALD'S FROM LOUISIANA, FROM LAKE CHARLES, SO THAT'S USUALLY HURRICANE ALLEY.
SO IF WE DO GET HIT, IT'S PROBABLY HIS FAULT BECAUSE HE CAME OVER HERE.
SO JUST WANT TO, I NEED TO SEND YOU BACK SOONER THAN LATER, AS SOON AS WE FINISH.
UH, BUT HE DOES HAVE A LOT OF EXPERIENCE.
[8. Consideration and possible action to approve the purchase of six 2023 Ford Police Interceptor Utility vehicles from Silsbee Ford in the total amount of $274,755.00.]
ITEM.EIGHT, UH, CONSIDERATION POSSIBLE ACTION TO APPROVE THE PURCHASE OF 6 20 23
[00:25:02]
FORD INTERCEPTOR UTILITY VEHICLES FROM SILSBY FORD IN THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF $274,755 AND 0 CENTS.CHIEF, YOU WANTED A SHOT AT THE TITLE? HERE YOU ARE,
MAYOR PROAM, COMMISSIONERS FOR THE RECORD.
I'M BACK AGAIN, UH, ASKING FOR MORE VEHICLES.
UH, IT IS TO COMPLETE MY FEE, UH, FLEET, UH, I DIDN'T, THIS TIME, I DIDN'T PUT THE PICTURES OF THE VEHICLES THAT WE REPLACED THE LAST TIME.
UH, THIS TIME I ACTUALLY INCLUDED, UH, A SAMPLE OF OUR PROCUREMENT, UH, I MEAN OUR, UH, VEHICLE REPLACEMENT POLICY THAT, THAT THEY'RE GONNA PRESENT A LITTLE BIT LATER.
AS YOU CAN SEE, THAT VEHICLE RATED EXCELLENT.
SO IT'S NOT, UH, IT'S NOT MARKED FOR REPLACEMENT, BUT WHAT I DID WANT TO ADD ON THERE IS THAT, AND, AND I ALSO INCLUDED, I HAVE ALL THE MAINTENANCE THAT WE'VE DONE FOR THAT VEHICLE SINCE WE PURCHASED IT.
UH, AND A LOT OF IT IS JUST OIL CHANGES, PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE, TIRES, BRAKES, ALL THAT STUFF WE KEEP RECORDS OF, OF EVERYTHING WE DO, UH, ON THAT.
SO IF YOU SEE THE VEHICLE RATED A 22, AND IF YOU LOOK AT THE, THE DESCRIPTION, IT'S, UH, EXCELLENT.
I DID PUT IN THE NOTES, THOUGH, THAT I DID THE SAME, UH, VEHICLE REPLACEMENT POLICY IN JANUARY WHEN I WAS WORKING ON IT.
AND, UH, AND, UH, JUST TO SEE WHAT IT WOULD LOOK LIKE.
AND IT'S FROM JANUARY TO NOW, WE ADDED ABOUT 15,420 MILES ON THAT CAR.
SO SIX MONTHS, WE, WE ADDED 15,000 MILES.
REASON BEING IS THAT WE'RE STILL WAITING FOR THE OTHER VEHICLES TO GET BUILT.
AND, UH, BUT THE ONES THAT WE'RE WAITING ON ARE NOT COMING OUT FAST.
SO BY THE TIME WE GET THESE, THESE ARE GONNA BE READY FOR, FOR REPLACEMENT, IF WE, IF WE CONTINUE ON THIS PATH, WE'RE ADDING 15,000 UH, MILES.
SO THE MILEAGE, THOSE POINTS ARE GONNA GO UP AND WITH MILEAGE, WITH HOURS, UH, SO IS THE, THE MAINTENANCE COST.
NOW WE WERE STUCK WITH 20, OVER 20 VEHICLES THAT WERE 2011, 2014.
AND THEN WHEN WE FINALLY DID TRY TO GET VEHICLES, IT TOOK US FOREVER TO GET VEHICLES BECAUSE NOBODY HAD 'EM.
I CONTACTED SILSBEE AND TO, TO ANSWER THE QUESTION THAT WAS ASKED, UH, BY MR. TRAVIS, I CONTACTED THE UPFITTERS AND I ASKED, WHO HAS VEHICLES RIGHT NOW? I DON'T, NOT, UH, WHO CAN ORDER 'EM? AND I GOT TWO RESPONSES.
SBE SAYS, IF WE GET THE PO, WE CAN GET 'EM IN 10 TO 15 DAYS AFTER THEY GET THAT.
THAT MEANS WE SECURE 'EM, WE HAVE 'EM HERE.
SO IF SOMETHING HAPPENS, WE DON'T HAVE TO WAIT EIGHT MONTHS, NINE MONTHS TO GET A VEHICLE.
UM, I SAID, WELL, WE WENT WITH THE DODGES, WE WENT WITH WHAT WE COULD GET BECAUSE WE WERE, WE WERE, WE NEEDED 'EM.
AND, UH, DODGES WERE AVAILABLE.
SO THAT'S WHY I'M HERE AGAIN, ASKING FOR THE SIX VEHICLES.
MY PLAN, AND THE GOAL IS WE HAVE 28 PATROL OFFICERS, SO IT'S SEVEN ON SHIFT, UH, UH, EACH TIME.
AND SO I WANT 14 PATROL VEHICLES, SO AT LEAST THEY GET, THEY GET ARREST.
THEN WE GOT OUR TRAFFIC DIVISION, THAT'S TWO THAT ARE ON SHIFT WITH THEM.
AND THEN WE GOT TWO CANINES THAT ARE COMING IN THAT WE, WE ALREADY HAVE ONE THAT'S AT THE, AT THE TRAINING CENTER.
AND THEN ONCE WE GET THE OTHER VEHICLE THAT'S BUILT FOR CANINE, WE WILL, WE WILL LOOK FOR ANOTHER CANDIDATE TO, UH, TO TAKE THAT DOG.
SO THAT'S TWO VEHICLES RIGHT THERE.
SO IT EQUALS OUT TO 18 PATROL VEHICLES.
THESE 20 ONES, ALTHOUGH THEY'LL RATE UP IN MILEAGE, UH, WE CAN HAVE THOSE FOUR, UH, SET ASIDE BECAUSE ONE OF THE, ONE OF THE VEHICLES THAT WE DO HAVE, THAT'S EXPLORER, THAT'S RIGHT NOW IT'S AT 22, AND THAT ONE ONLY HAS 35,000 MILES.
SO THAT ONE'S GONNA BE ABLE TO LAST US.
BUT, UH, SOME OF THESE ARE AT THE 60 TO 70,000, 80,000 MILE RANGE.
SO THEY'RE GONNA NEED TO BE REPLACED PRETTY SOON.
AND I DON'T WANT TO GET INTO THAT WHERE, YOU KNOW, NOW WE'RE WEARING OUT ALL OUR VEHICLES BECAUSE WE WE'RE WAITING FOR VEHICLES TO COME IN.
SO ALL THE, ALL THE WHOLE FLEET AND WE'RE JUST PLAYING CATCH UP THE WHOLE TIME.
SO THAT, THAT'S WHY I'M BRINGING IT HERE.
AND, AND LIKE I SAID, SILLS B IS THE ONE THAT CAN GIVE US THOSE VEHICLES, THE FASTEST CHIEF GO.
WE WERE GONNA LOOK INTO LEASING VERSUS BUYING.
DID YOU EVER FOLLOW UP WITH THAT? NOW, THERE WAS CHEVROLETS, UH, TAHOES AVAILABLE.
UH, THE ONLY THING WAY I COULD GET 'EM WAS THROUGH LEASING.
AND, UH, THEY, THEY OFFERED A 12 MONTH LEASE.
'CAUSE I SAID, WE DON'T WANNA LEASE.
BECAUSE WHAT WAS GOING ON WITH THE LEASE WAS WE WERE GONNA PAY AN EXTRA $120, UH, A MONTH PER VEHICLE.
SO WE'RE GONNA PAY 36,000 FOR THE YEAR JUST TO LEASE IT, JUST SO WE CAN GET IT THROUGH, SO WE CAN GET THE TAHOES, BECAUSE THEY'RE THE ONES THAT ARE SELLING THEM.
UH, SO I, I SAID, WELL, IF WE'RE, WE CAN PURCHASE 'EM, I MIGHT AS WELL PURCHASE 'EM.
AND I KNOW I SPOKE WITH STEPHANIE.
WE DO HAVE PREVIOUS YEARS, UH, CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT FUNDS OF 200,000.
SO THAT MAKES 75,000 THAT'S GONNA COME OUT FROM UNASSIGNED FUNDS.
AND I, I MEAN, I'M NOT GONNA COME AND NOT SAY ANYTHING.
I'M NOT, BUT THAT'S JUST THE VEHICLE'S, NOT THE EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT.
SO I'M, I'M PREPARING YOU, UH, FOR THAT ALSO, THAT I'LL PROBABLY BE BACK LATER TO ASK FOR THAT.
SO YOU'RE SAYING, IS THIS, UM, WAS THIS BUDGETED OR IS THIS COMING OUT? WHERE IS THIS COMING FROM? HI, STEPHANIE SANANDO FOR THE RECORD FINANCE DIRECTOR.
SO, UM, PRIOR ADMINISTRATION, AND FROM THE PREVIOUS YEARS, IT WAS SET ASIDE AN AMOUNT OF ABOUT $80,000 A YEAR TO PUT AN UNASSIGNED ASSIGNED FROM THE UNASSIGNED FUND TO REPLACE FLEET.
[00:30:01]
SPECIFY IF POLICE, UH, CITY ADMINISTRATION, ANYTHING.SO OVER THE YEARS, AND I'LL SAY OVER THE YEARS, 'CAUSE IT STARTED AGAIN LAST YEAR, UH, WHEN I CAME ON BOARD, UM, AND I TRIED TO CATCH UP FROM THE PAST YEARS THAT THEY WERE NOT DOING IT.
SO THERE WERE, THERE WERE 80,000 SET ASIDE, AND THEN WE ADDED ANOTHER ONE 20 TO KIND OF CATCH UP.
WE DIDN'T WANNA, 'CAUSE IT HAD BEEN LIKE FIVE YEARS WITH 80,000 WE'RE SITTING THERE, AND IT WAS JUST NOT THE, I GUESS THE PLAN WASN'T FOLLOW THROUGH.
UM, BUT THEN THIS YEAR WHEN I CAME ON BOARD, I WAS LIKE, IT WAS ACTUALLY A GOOD PLAN.
IT TAKES US AWAY FROM LEASING IT BECAUSE AT THE END OF THE DAY, LEASING IT'S COSTLY.
UM, THEY DO HAVE A REPLACEMENT POLICY, AND THEN WE PAY A LOT OF INTEREST.
SO WE CHECK, AND WITHIN FIVE YEARS, WE WERE GONNA BE ABLE TO BUY ANOTHER THREE OR FOUR VEHICLES WITH THE LEASING CHARGE.
SO, UM, WE DID DO, UM, QUITE OF A HUGE RESEARCH BETWEEN MYSELF, CHIEF CITY MANAGER, TO SEE IF THAT'S GONNA BE A GOOD OPTION.
WE ALSO LOOKED FOR RECOMMENDATIONS AND DIDN'T LOOK GOOD TOWARDS THE LEASING.
AND THEN OF COURSE, CHIEF, LET'S SAY HE'S, HE'S TAKING AWAY THIS CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT SET ASIDE THIS TIME, BUT THEN WE'RE GONNA START BUILDING IT IF CITY MANAGER RECOMMENDS, WHICH WE'VE HAD TALKS AND IT'S A GREAT, AND THAT'S WHY WE'RE ALSO BRINGING THE POLICE REPLACEMENT POLICY.
SO WE COULD BE SETTING ASIDE EVERY YEAR ABOUT $80,000, WHATEVER IT'S POSSIBLE.
SO WHENEVER A DEPARTMENT NEEDS VEHICLES, WE HAVE THE FUNDS AVAILABLE, NOT HITTING OUR BUDGET.
SO, UM, AND I KNOW BACK IN APRIL WHEN WE BROUGHT THE, THE AUDIT REPORT FOR YOU, ALL THOSE 200 THOUSANDS WERE SET ASIDE AND THAT'S WHEN CHIEF CAME TO US AND SAID THAT, WELL, WE'RE STILL WAITING ON ANOTHER VEHICLE.
SO THEY'RE, THEY'RE, THEY'RE THE ONES THAT HE CURRENTLY HAVE.
THEY'RE WEARING OFF BECAUSE THEY'RE USING IT AND THEY DON'T HAVE SOMETHING TO REPLACE 'EM WITH OR BEING ALTERNATING.
SO, UH, THE ONLY PORTION THAT WILL BE TAKEN FROM UNASSIGNED FUNDS WILL BE ABOUT $74,000 MORE OR LESS AND CHANGE.
AND THE OTHER 200, THEY WERE SET ASIDE FOR THAT PURPOSE FOR FLEET.
UM, IT WAS NOT SPECIFICALLY, LIKE I SAID, FOR PD, BUT THEY'RE THE ONES THAT INDEED NEED IT MOST.
THANK, THANK YOU CHIEF, STEPHANIE AND, AND FRED FOR DOING YOUR DUE DILIGENCE AND COMPARISON BECAUSE I MYSELF WAS LAST WEEK LOOKING TO FINANCE OR WHAT THE OPTIONS WERE.
AND FINANCE WASN'T THE WAY TO LEASE TO GO.
SO THANK YOU FOR DOING YOUR DUE DILIGENCE, YOUR HOMEWORK, AND HEY, SAVING US MONEY WHEN WE NEED IT.
SO CHIEF, WE GOT VEHICLES RUNNING 24 7 RIGHT NOW.
IS THAT IT? WE DO, WE STILL, 'CAUSE WE'RE STILL WAITING ON THE OTHER ONES THAT WE PURCHASED.
SO WE'RE RUNNING, WE'RE STILL RUNNING THE 2014 TAHOE.
UH, WE'RE MAKING THAT LAST PLUS THESE VEHICLES.
SO THEY ARE RUNNING CONSTANTLY.
SO THAT'S WHY THE MILEAGE IS 15,000, UH, IN SIX MONTHS.
AND THAT'S WHY, THAT'S WHY YOU NEED THE ONES NOW.
'CAUSE ONCE IF WE KEEP IT UP AND WE WAIT AND WAIT, I'M, I WORRY THAT WHEN WE DO DECIDE, OKAY, THESE, YOU KNOW, THEY'RE STARTING TO HIT MAINTENANCE, THEY'RE STARTING TO GET DAMAGED, THEY'RE STARTING, YOU KNOW, WE GOTTA, WE GOTTA, WE GOTTA DECOMMISSION THEM.
UH, I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT'S GONNA LOOK LIKE IF WE CAN PURCHASE VEHICLES OR NOT.
IF THEY'RE GONNA BE AVAILABLE OR NOT.
THAT THAT'S THE, THAT'S WHAT WE RAN INTO THE LAST TIME.
EVERYBODY WAS SENDING ME EMAILS.
IF YOU ORDER VEHICLES, THEY MIGHT GET CANCELED.
AND I HA I HAVE THOSE EMAILS, LIKE THEY JUST, FOR SOME REASON THERE WAS NO VEHICLES.
AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN VEHICLES COME UP AND THEN THEY BUY 'EM.
AND, YOU KNOW, THEY TELL ME THEY'RE NOT GONNA LAST LONG.
SO WHEN I TALKED TO MR. WILEY AT SBE, HE SAYS, HEY, I HAVE 'EM HERE.
HE'S LIKE, IF YOU GET ME THE PO 10 TO 15 DAYS, THEY'LL BE THERE.
CAN YOU GET A MOTION BACK TO COMMISSIONER? GET A MOTION BY COMMISSIONER GOODMAN.
SECOND BY COMMISSIONER MORALES.
[11. Consideration and possible action to approve Ambiotec Civil Engineering Group Task Order Number CSB-003-0624 for Phase II: Integrated Technical Managerial Financial (TMF) Enterprise Assessment and Strategic/Funding Plan and authorize the Mayor to execute all related documents and budget amendments as needed.]
ITEM NUMBER 11, CONSIDERATION POSSIBLE.AND HE JUST WENT TO THE BATHROOM.
SO ANYWAY, GIVE HIM A LITTLE BREAK CONSIDERATION.
APPROVE AMATE CIVIL ENGINEERING GROUP TASK ORDER NUMBER CSB 0 0 3 0 6 2 4 FOR PHASE TWO, INTEGRATED TECHNICAL MANAGERIAL FINANCIAL, TMF, ENTERPRISE ASSESSMENT AND STRATEGIC FUNDING PLAN, AND AUTHORIZE THE MAYOR TO EXECUTE ALL, EXECUTE ALL RELATED DOCUMENTS AND BUDGET AMENDMENTS AS NEEDED.
WELL, I, I, FRED, I TALKED TO YOU ABOUT THIS EARLIER.
I WAS, UH, THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR BRINGING THIS UP.
BUT, UH, MY CONCERN WAS OF COURSE, THAT THIS GROUP, AS THEY DO THEIR ASSESSMENTS, UH, THAT THEY ARE LOOKING TOWARDS GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT, UH, FOR, FOR, UH, WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT HERE.
THAT THEY DON'T JUST TAKE AN ANALYSIS OF CURRENT OPERATIONS AND
[00:35:01]
FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO BETTER, AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN WE'VE GOT TWICE THE NEED IN OUR COMMUNITY FOR WHAT'S GOING ON.NEXT RIGHT TIME YOU JUST, YOU YOU SURE DID.
I'M WITH AMBU TECH GROUP, AND WE WERE WORKING WITH COMMISSION AND FRED AND STAFF ON HOW DO, HOW DO WE BEEF UP THE CAPACITY OF THE UTILITY SYSTEM AS A WAY TO CAPTURE THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES ARE ON THE HORIZON IN THIS AREA.
WE'RE SEEING SOME OF THAT ALREADY AT THE PORT.
AND SO WE'VE DEVELOPED A PLAN THAT'S BASED ON A NUMBER OF PHASES.
PHASE ONE WAS TO DO AN ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE PLAN, IDENTIFY WHAT POTENTIAL LIABILITIES, UH, CAME UP AND HOW TO SOLVE THEM.
WE'RE NOW IN PHASE TWO LOOKING REALLY AT HOW DO WE RUN AND INCREASE THE CAPACITY OF THE SYSTEM BASED ON RETURN ON INVESTMENT, LOOKING AT UTILITY AS A BUSINESS, AND WHAT ARE THE WAYS THAT WE CAN MINIMIZE, UH, LOSSES AND IMPROVE CASH EFFICIENCY OF THE SYSTEM, GET IT BACK INTO SHAPE.
AND SO WE'RE GONNA, FIRST STEP IS TO IDENTIFY, DO A COMPLETE AUDIT, UH, NOT ONLY OF THE INFRASTRUCTURE, BUT OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE ADMINISTRATION AND FINANCIAL, UH, SYSTEMS ALL TOGETHER.
AND WHAT WE WANNA DO IS FIND OUT WHAT ARE THE BIGGEST SOURCES OF CASH LOSSES IN THE SYSTEM, AND WE IDENTIFY HOW TO SOLVE THEM.
SO FOR EXAMPLE, ON OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE, IF WE IDENTIFY THERE'S WATER LOSSES AND WE IDENTIFY, I'M JUST THROWING SOME NUMBERS OUT, A HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS PER YEAR IN WATER LOSSES.
WELL, THE TYPICAL RULE OF THUMB IS YOU MULTIPLY THAT WATER LOSS BY 10 AND YOU'D END UP WITH A MILLION DOLLARS IN POTENTIAL SAVINGS.
AND IF IT COSTS YOU $200,000 TO FIX THAT, YOU JUST CREATED $800,000 IN POTENTIAL POSITIVE CASH GAIN TO YOUR SYSTEM.
BUT WE'RE NOT GONNA DO IT JUST FOR INFRASTRUCTURE.
WE'RE GONNA DO IT FOR OPERATION MAINTENANCE ON THE ADMINISTRATION SIDE, AS WELL AS THE FINANCIAL SIDE.
THE NEXT STEP IS TO PRIORITIZE EACH OF THOSE OPTIONS.
WE RANK THEM BASED ON THE RETURN ON INVESTMENT, AND WE THEN, UM, TRY TO USE THAT, CREATE THOSE LISTS OF PRIORITIZE, RETURN ON INVESTMENT SOLUTIONS IN ORDER TO CREATE A FUNDING PLAN, BECAUSE THAT, THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF MONEY OUT THERE.
AND THEN WE GOT PEOPLE LIKE FEDERAL RUBENSTEIN, WHO IS THE CHAIRMAN OF THE WATER DEVELOPMENT BOARD THAT'LL IDENTIFY WHAT ARE THE FUNDING SOURCES, BUT WE'RE NOT LOOKING AT JUST TRADITIONAL FEDERAL STATE.
WE'RE ALSO LOOKING IN PHILANTHROPIC SOURCES AS WELL AS PRIVATE SECTOR MONEY.
AND THE IDEA IS, BEFORE WE START PLANNING LONG TERM AND HOW ARE WE GONNA CAPTURE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES, LET'S GET THE SYSTEM IN SHAPE AND FIND SOURCES OF MONEY FROM THE PUBLIC, UM, FEDERAL STATE, AS WELL AS PHILANTHROPIC AND PRIVATE MONIES IN ORDER TO INCREASE CAPACITY AND GET READY TO REDUCE THE RISK, LOWER THE COST OF CAPITAL, AND START READY TO CAPTURE SOME OF THESE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES.
SO THAT IN ESSENCE IS, UH, PHASE TWO THAT WE'RE POSING TO YOU GUYS AND FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION.
THIS IS, UH, MUSIC TO MY EARS.
MY QUESTION BECOMES, YEAH, HOW LONG WILL THIS PHASE TAKE? FIRST PHASE, I THINK IS NINE MONTHS.
NINE, AND THEN THE SECOND NINE MONTHS.
THE SECOND PHASE IS LOOKING AT MARKET SHARE.
YOU ARE NOW CREATED A STABLE AND, UH, OPERATING EFFICIENTLY OPERATING UTILITY.
NOW YOU START LOOKING AT MARKET SHARE.
AND WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THERE IS REGIONALIZATION.
IT MAKES A LOT OF SENSE FOR THE CITY TO START WORKING TOGETHER FOR A NUMBER OF REASONS.
AND AT THAT POINT, ONCE YOU'VE GOT AN EFFICIENT SYSTEM, YOU GOT A WELL-PLANNED UTILITY, GOOD, GOOD CAPACITY, LOW RISK, LOW COST, LOW COST OF CAPITAL, THAT'S WHEN PRIVATE SECTOR STARTS COMING IN.
AND HOW DO YOU PARTNER WITH THE PRIVATE SECTOR TO CAPTURE SOME OF THOSE INDUSTRIAL INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES? ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT DOING, OF COURSE, IS WE NEED TO UPDATE OUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.
AND THIS BECOMES REALLY A CRITICAL PART OF THAT.
BUT I WANNA MAKE SURE THAT WE, AS FAST AS THINGS ARE HAPPENING THESE DAYS THAT WE'RE IN THE TIMELINE, THAT, UH, LETS US CAPTURE SOME OF THE OPPORTUNITIES OUT THERE.
AND THERE'S A LOT OF OTHER CITIES THAT ARE LOOKING AT THE SAME, UH, AT THE SAME IDEAS.
THE PORTER BROWN IS LOOKING AT THAT, AND WE HAVE THE A AND M IS JUST, UH, KICKED OFF A 30 TO $50 MILLION ADVANCE MANUFACTURING HUB.
WE'RE WORKING WITH ALL OF THEM.
AND I THINK IT'S, THE WHOLE IDEA IS HOW DO WE LEVERAGE OUR RESOURCES TO TRY TO CAPTURE THE EMERGING ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES THAT ARE COMING TO THE VALLEY? OKAY.
AND THE QUESTIONS, COMMISSIONERS? OKAY.
I GOT A MOTION BY COMMISSIONER GOODMAN.
[12. Consideration and possible action to approve the City of San Benito Fleet Replacement Policy.]
ITEM NUMBER 12, CONSIDERATION POSSIBLE ACTION APPROVE THE CITY OF SAN BENITO FLEET REPLACEMENT POLICY.AGAIN, FOR THE RECORD, PLEASE.
NOW THIS, UH, THE FLEET POLICY IS, UH, SOMETHING WE HAD BEEN WORKING ON FOR
[00:40:01]
A WHILE, LOOKING AT, UH, WHAT'S BEST AND KIND OF LOOKING AT DIFFERENT EXAMPLES OF WHAT OTHER CITIES ARE USING.I, AND I KNOW, I THINK IT'S, IT'S IN YOUR, IN YOUR ALL'S PACKETS.
IF YOU LOOK AT IT, IT'LL, IT'LL, IT'S KIND OF BY POINTS AND IT'LL GIVE YOU THE, THE POINT SCALE ON THERE.
IF IT'S ZERO TO 23, IT'S EXCELLENT.
REEVALUATE FOR NEXT YEAR'S BUDGET.
29 POINTS TO 33 GOOD QUALIFIES FOR REPLACEMENT THIS YEAR.
IF, UH, MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR COSTS EXCEEDS 60% OF COSTS, 34 TO 38 FAIR QUALIFIES FOR RE REPLACEMENTS THIS YEAR.
BUDGET ALLOWS, AND 39 PLUS POOR NEEDS PRIORITY REPLACEMENT.
AND IF YOU GO IT'S POINT, RANGE DETAILS, IT'LL GIVE YOU ACTUALLY, UH, HOW, HOW TO SCORE IT ON THERE.
SO AUTOMATICALLY, ONE POINT FOR EVERY CHRONICAL, UH, CHRONOLOGICAL YEAR OF AGE.
SO IF IT'S, IT'S 10 YEARS OLD, THE VEHICLE, IT'S 10 POINTS, BUT, AND THEN IT GOES INTO 10,000 MILES OR 250 HOURS.
WHEN I DID MINE, I DID IT OFF MILES.
WE DID HAVE THE VEHICLE THAT I HAD, UH, PUT ON HERE, THE EXAMPLE THAT I DID HAD ABOUT 6,300 MILES.
AND I KNOW FOR EVERY IDLE MILES, FOR IDLE HOURS, SORRY, FOR EVERY HOUR IS ABOUT THIR 30 MILES ACCORDING TO ENTERPRISE.
UH, SO THE, IT ADDS UP, UH, ON THERE.
SO, BUT YOU KNOW, YOU CAN DO IT BY, BY MILES, WHATEVER, UH, YOU KNOW, WE GET THE DIRECTION FROM.
AND, UH, THEN IT GOES INTO RELIABILITY, HOW MANY TIMES, HOW MANY, UH, WHAT THE MAINTENANCE COST WAS, UM, CONDITION.
AND THEN FROM THERE ON THAT, THAT'S WHAT WHERE YOU GET, AND THE REASON I DID THIS IS 'CAUSE, SO WHEN WE COME UP HERE, UH, YOU KNOW THAT EVERY YEAR DIRECTORS, UH, YOU KNOW, AS FAR AS IN MY OPINION, SHOULD DO AN EVALUATION ON THEIR FLEET AND DO, UH, AND TURN THAT IN AND SAY, HEY, LOOK, THIS IS WHAT I GOT.
AND OR KEEP IT IN THEIR FILES.
AND, BUT IF THERE'S A VEHICLE THAT, HEY, I NEED TO REPLACE THIS VEHICLE, WELL, WHEN WE'RE DOING THE BUDGET PROCESS, WE COULD ADD THAT IN THERE AND YOU CAN SAY, WELL, WHY DID YOU ADD THIS MUCH INTO YOUR BUDGET? WELL, IT'S BECAUSE I HAVE THIS VEHICLE THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.
AND, YOU KNOW, THEY GIVE YOU THE, THE INSPECTION.
THEY GIVE YOU PHOTOS, THEY GIVE YOU THE MAINTENANCE RECORDS AND SAY, OKAY, THIS IS WHY I'M REPLACING THIS VEHICLE.
SO, UH, THIS IS PRETTY MUCH WHAT, WHAT THIS WILL DO.
UH, YOU KNOW, IT'S, IT'S, IT'S A LIVING DOCUMENT.
IT COULD CHANGE IF THERE'S SOMETHING ON THERE THAT, THAT, UH, WE DON'T LIKE.
BUT, UH, THIS IS WHAT, WHAT I CAME UP WITH.
WHAT ME, STEPHANIE AND I, THE CM, UH, KIND OF DISCUSSED CHIEF.
YOU KNOW, YOU WERE WORKING ON SOMETHING TO GET, UPDATE YOUR VEHICLES AND THEN YOU LOOKED BEYOND THAT, YOUR DEPARTMENT, AND YOU SAW A POLICY THAT COULD HELP ALL THE DEPARTMENTS.
SO I WANNA SAY THANK YOU FOR BEING A TEAM MEMBER AND A TEAM PLAYER AND LOOKING OUTSIDE OF YOUR DEPARTMENT, THAT'S WHAT'S CALLED COMMUNITY POLICING MORE THAN, YOU KNOW, STAYING WITHIN YOUR DEPARTMENT.
THANKS FOR EXTENDING YOUR HANDOUT TO THE DEPARTMENTS.
AND IF I, I WOULD LIKE TO ADD THAT WE ALSO TOOK THIS POLICY IN PLACE BECAUSE WE WANNA START WORKING ON OUR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS.
AND THIS WILL TAKE A PART OF IT.
LIKE WE COULD ADDRESS WHICH DEPARTMENTS NEED THE MOST HELP AND WE'LL, WE'LL HAVE A BACKUP FOR THAT.
LIKE WHENEVER WE DO PUT IN PLACE OUR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT, WE CAN SEE, OKAY, THESE ARE THE ONES THAT NEED THE HELP.
IT'S NOT ONLY FOR POLICE, I KNOW IT, IT HELPS HIM A LOT, BUT HE, LIKE, UH, MR. GALVAN SAID HE HELPED EVERYONE BRINGING THIS UP.
AND THEN AS HE MENTIONED, WE DISCUSSED IT AND IT'S JUST A GREAT IDEA FOR US TO KNOW WHAT WE HAVE.
'CAUSE UM, YOU SEE THE VEHICLES, SOME OF OUR STAFF IS DRIVING AND IT'S LIKE, OKAY, THEY'RE NOT, THEY'RE NOT UP TO PAR.
WHAT, WHAT WE WANT THEM TO BE.
SO JUST HOW MANY VEHICLE? OH YEAH, I KNOW THERE'S A LOT, BUT THANK YOU VERY MUCH AGAIN TOO.
YES, MIKE, TO THIS, UM, MY, I GUESS MY ONLY COMMENT REALLY BECOMES, UM, HAVING ENOUGH AS PART OF THIS POLICY TO PUT INTO RESERVES FOR FUTURE PURCHASES SO THAT WE'RE NOT BEING HIT BY BUDGET EVERY TIME, WHICH YOU, YOU DESCRIBED HAS BEEN A POLICY, BUT I'M JUST WANNA MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE ENOUGH MONEY IN THERE TO, TO, TO, TO TRULY BEGIN TO LOOK AT THAT SO THAT WE DON'T HAVE TO CALL THE SUDDEN AND SAY, HEY, WE GOT TERRIBLE VEHICLES HERE AND WE DON'T HAVE ANY MONEY TO BUY NEW ONES.
SO IT WORKS HAND BY HAND WITH, UM, NOT DOING 'EM ALL AT ONCE.
SO WHATEVER THEY'RE IN CRITICAL CONDITIONS, WE'LL TRY, TRY TO ADDRESS THEM IN A YEARLY BASIS.
AND, UH, WITH THAT BEING SAID, WE'LL TRY TO AGAIN, PUT THAT FLEET KINDA STRATEGY IN OR BOOKS EVERY YEAR SO WE COULD HAVE A GOOD AMOUNT.
OKAY, THIS YEAR WE'RE ALLOWED TO UPGRADE, I DON'T KNOW, OR FIRE DEPARTMENT OR PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT.
AND I KNOW WE RECENTLY DID IT, AND I'M JUST THROWING EXAMPLES.
BUT CITY ADMINISTRATION MIGHT NEED, AND OF COURSE THEY'RE NOT GONNA BE AS, AS BIG OF A HIT THAN POLICE, UH, BECAUSE THESE ARE CIVILIAN VEHICLES.
BUT IT'LL PUT US IN A PLACE WHERE WE KNOW WHICH ONES ARE NEEDED CRITICAL, AND WE WON'T DO 'EM ALL AT ONCE.
UM, THE POLICY ITSELF, WE STILL WILL NEED TO BRING INTO YOUR ATTENTION AND YOU NEED TO APPROVE FOR THE PURCHASE OF THESE VEHICLES, BUT IT WILL GIVE THEM THE DIRECTORS, THE TOOLS TO PRESENT IT TO YOU, AND ALL THE SUPPORTING BACKUP
[00:45:01]
FOR THE REASON WHY THEY'RE ASKING FOR REPLACEMENT OF A FLEET OR A VEHICLE.DOES IT MAKE SENSE FOR US TO CODIFY A PERCENTAGE BASED ON THE NUMBER OF VEHICLES WE'VE GOT IN TERMS OF PUTTING MONEY INTO, INTO, INTO RESERVE FUNDS? THAT'LL BE CERTAINLY SOMETHING THAT WE CAN LOOK INTO IT.
UH, RIGHT NOW I'M GOING BASED OFF PRIOR YEAR ADMINISTRATION AND WHAT THEY HAD SAID.
IT WAS LIKE I MENTIONED 80,000 AND THEN LAST, JUST LAST YEAR, I ADDED LIKE ONE 20 BECAUSE WAS A LITTLE BIT PLAYING CATCH UP.
UM, BUT MOVING FORWARD FOR SURE, WE COULD PROBABLY DO AN ESTIMATE AND THEN GET SOME SORT OF PERCENTAGE BASED ON HOW MANY VEHICLES WE WANNA REPLACE ON A YEARLY BASIS.
UM, THAT'LL BE MORE INTO PLACE WITH, WITH PD BECAUSE THE REST OF OUR DEPARTMENTS WON'T NEED TO GET IT REPLACED AT THAT IT THAT OFTEN AS IT WOULD LIKE THE ONES ARE 24 7, UM, WORKING.
BUT WE CAN CERTAINLY WORK SOMETHING OUT AND PRESENT IT TO YOU MAYBE AT THE NEXT BUDGET WORKSHOP SO YOU CAN HAVE A BETTER IDEA OF HOW MUCH MONEY WE WILL BE NEEDING TO SET ASIDE ON A YEARLY BASIS TO AT LEAST ADDRESS, I DON'T KNOW, FIVE TO 10 VEHICLES AS NEEDED.
I THINK WE TOOK CARE OF THE DIRE NEED.
AND THEN THIS JUST SETS UP THE FRAMEWORK FOR THE OTHER DEPARTMENTS CORRECT.
TO HAVE SOMETHING OBJECTIVE TO FALL BACK ON.
THANK YOU GUYS FOR WORKING TOGETHER ON THIS SECOND.
GOT A MOTION BY REPRESENTATIVE
GOT A MOTION BY MIRACLE TEAM GAVAN, SECOND BY COMMISSIONER GUTMAN.
UH, I THINK THE CHIEF IS STILL THERE.
SO I WANT TO COME BACK AT HERE.
CHIEF, I WANT, I WANT TO THANK YOU ON BEHALF OF ALL THE DEPARTMENT HEADS FOR PUTTING 'EM ALL TO WORK.
AND I THINK THAT'S A KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATOR IF I'VE EVER SEEN ONE.
SO, UH, I THINK, UH, JUST LOOKING AT THESE VEHICLES AS ASSETS AND IMPORTANT ASSETS, OBVIOUSLY THEY CAN'T DO THEIR JOB WITHOUT 'EM, BUT, UH, IT PUTS ALL THE DEPARTMENTS IN THIS, YOU KNOW, IN THE SAME MINDSET THAT WE HAVE TO MAINTAIN THESE VEHICLES.
WE HAVE TO JUSTIFY THEIR USE AND, AND, AND THEIR SUBSEQUENT REPLACEMENT.
SO AGAIN, CHIEF, MY HAT'S OFF TO YOU FOR, UH, EXPANDING EVERYTHING, NOT JUST TO YOUR DEPARTMENT AND DOING A GREAT JOB, BY THE WAY, BUT ALSO YOU ARE WORKING WITH STEPHANIE.
AND, UH, TO YOUR POINT, COMMISSIONER GOODMAN, WE COULD GET, WE WILL GET TO THAT POINT WHERE WE NOT JUST HAVE THE, THE POLICY, BUT ALSO TIE THAT INTO SOME, UH, A FISCAL, A FISCAL, UH, BUDGETARY ITEM THAT WOULD RUN CONCURRENT WITH THAT REPLACEMENT POLICY.
OF COURSE, AS HE SAID, IT'S A LIVING DOCUMENT, WE KIND OF HAVE TO GROW WITH IT.
UH, BUT WE'RE HEADING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.
