God, thank you so much uh for this night tonight. This opportunity we get to come to you in prayer. It's uh so incredible to see all you did throughout churches all throughout Buckeye here on Sunday on that incredible Easter Sunday. And you know what? It's so cool knowing that that exact same God is the God right here in this Buckeye City Council chamber on Tuesday. So God, I'm praying for wisdom right now. I'm praying as you've called us to do to pray for our leaders. I pray for Mayor Osborne, for our city council, for every leader in this room here, for the responsibility you've given them, but the privilege you've given them as well to lead. I pray that they would listen to you and that we would be honoring to you as we honor them. praying right now for an incredible meeting and an opportunity to point people to a city that loves you and is living for you and wants to do things right by you. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

Join me in the pledge. I pledge algiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands. One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Okay, thank you both. Uh, can we have the roll call, please? Board member Yoner is absent. Board member Barry here. Board member Hegestad here. Board member Oh, I'm sorry. Excuse me. Council member Yoner. Council member Barry. Council member Hegestad. Council member Beard present. Council member Hustus here. Vice Mayor Goodman

present. Mayor Worsborne

present. Thank you very much. Um, item number two is comments from the public. Members of the audience may comment on any non-aggenda item of interest. I have one speaker request on this and it is Kenny Walls. Hi, my name is Kenny Walls and uh my wife and I have been in the area. She's a native. I've been here since the late 60s and been a great place to raise our kids, our grandkids and stuff. And um I just want to plant a seed of a possible shortcoming that we may have as big as we're becoming with all the facilities and services. Um, a few years ago, uh, having an RV and a lot of people in the area, uh, there were several businesses, self-employed businesses that took care of RV dump and around the nation, checking that there's some cities provide this service, some don't. Uh, some are out on highway uh, rest areas and smaller towns and parks and and things like that. However, um when they rebuilt the Loves, they had a dump there and uh they also had one at Leafy that was available to drivebys to pay a fee. And those two are now gone. Uh the manager at the Doves said that when they rebuilt that the city had denied their permit for the sewer and he said that's just what the corporate office said. So I don't know if there's anything beyond that yay or nay. So the leaf verdy when they were purchased from the previous owners their company policy nationwide was not to service that unless you were a tenant there overnight or weekly or

whatever. And the closest facility now that seems to be is the Camelback and uh 303 U-Haul which is not Buckeye and the 99th love. um the the service which kind of the back end of everything obviously but the uh uh come to you with not just a you know plant a small seed for a possible shortcoming but possible solution too the uh revenue I believe is already there with the taxation on gas fees with the RVs there's thousands in area there's storage facilities there's versus Tractor Supply, Walmart, various places that sell RV products. Uh so with the gas tax revenue and things like that, I believe maybe the money would be there and it wouldn't have to be a big infrastructure. It could be something that could possibly be built and supplied at the local sanitation uh reclamation areas that you have already. And the uh even Skyline Park, which is a nice park, have facilities for RV, no dump. So, uh again, it's uh maybe just overlooked. Uh like I said, until a few years ago, I didn't realize that there was even an issue because it was always supplied by the private private industry. And if you want any input or somebody that I could speak with in the future, I'd be glad to share some time and talent with, you know, a possible in and ingress and egress for having a dump uh at one of your facilities andor another place and be more than willing to work with anybody for uh any future consideration of that.

That's it. Great. Thank you very much. It's uh since this is a non-aggendaized item, we're not able to uh speak you might not talk about it here, but uh in the back Terry Low is back there and uh he's our water resources director in charge of uh wastewater also. Uh and you can catch up with him. He he was giving me the the high sign of not waving you off. He's saying come on. Yeah. Yeah. Thank you. Thanks for bringing it to our attention. You too. Okay. Do we have any other uh speaker request cards for the general comments from the public? No additional speakers.

All right. So, on to item number three, awards, presentations, and proclamations. There are none for tonight. Item number four, consent agenda items and new business. Approval of items on the consent agenda. All items with an asterct are considered to be routine matters be enacted by one motion and vote of the city council. There be no separate discussion of these items unless a council member requests. This section may include the approval of minutes from previous meetings. Uh, council for the consent agenda. Uh, what is your pleasure? Mr. Mayor, I'd like to make a motion that we approve consent agenda items 4A as an Adam through 4X is an X-ray. Second.

I have a motion for approval of the consent agenda and a second. All in favor say I. I. And oppose. The consent agenda passes unanimous. Okay. On to item 5A. council to hold a public hearing and take action on action on resolution number 30-26 approving the assessment for the street improvements located at Miller Road from Lower Buckeye Road to Puma Street Capital Improvement Project number 105260 and authorizing the mayor and city engineer to assess the property adjacent to such improvements. Uh Mr. Riley Quinland, you are going to present tonight.

Mayor, vice mayor, council, pleasure to be here this evening. Appreciate your time. My name is Riley Quinnland. with the program management office, capital improvement program team, and I'm here to speak to you tonight about the Miller Road project that was completed at the end of 2025 or or opened at the end of 2025 just south of I 10 from Puma to roughly lower Buckeye Road and recommend the staff approval of the um resolution. The goal here today is to give a quick background on Scallop Streets. Um, this parcel in particular and and then again that recommendation to adopt the resolution. A little bit about the process and how we got here today. This is rooted in state code. It's rooted in city code. And uh back in May of 2022, the city conducted a determination of necessity whereby a roughly 60% cost estimate was leveraged to um put a determination of necessity along 11 parcels benefiting from the ultimate construction of Miller between Puma and Lower Buckeye between May of 2022 through really the end of construction design and and construction. uh changed a little bit, but we we finished construction and it was opened at the end of of 2025. And we used those actual costs to create the assessments themselves, which are for again those 11 uh parcels up and down Miller Road. These are for ultimate improvements that um fit within the the city's cross-section that um are they are permanent improvements and um these assessments would not be paid until the time of development which would include

a a 10-year time limit on that. And so uh if after today there was a an approval of that resolution, the assessment would be recorded and then following that once the assessment was paid would be um removed from said parcels. The vast majority of the work that was done up and down Miller was on the roughly east half street. West Half Street was largely done by developers at the time of development and then the intersections themselves at lower Buckeye and Puma rather Durango. Really the project overview is the intersections at lower Buckeye and Puma. the ultimate cross-section um as is defined in the city of Buckeye standards. Um and the assessments are all of the actual costs that qualify in front of the parcels less um any sort of contributions or non-qualifying costs which would include temporary improvements which would include regional traffic signal exaction fees which would include inl payments and and contributions of the sort. And this would be for all permanent roadway, paving, grading, curb, gutter, sidewalk, it landscape improvements. You'll see a rough outline of the project limits and then the parcels that are uh incorporated in the assessment here today. These parcels are reflective of the same parcels um plus or minus lot splits in combination from the determination of necessity back in 2022. Um these are also less the parcels on the west half street that um completed their ultimate construction

and also less parcels that um contributed in le fees which would be the warehouse warehouses and tractor supply company. At a high level, these are the parcels that on your left were at a determination of necessity based off the 60% cost estimate and the Scallop Street um updated actual costs. Some parcels were higher, some parcels were lower. This is uh reflective of of a couple things. one estimates that were done back in 2022 all the way through slight design modifications and construction actual costs through the end of 2025 and serving of some parcels for water and sewer and its also less um the regional uh traffic signal exaction fee. Um the process here was competitively bid. It was solicited out um to a number of contractors at which point um the benefit here to the part the parcel owners is this is a very large 1012 million construction project that economies of scale would be um realized and you know maybe a developer that's doing a a one-off may not be able to uh realize some of those some of those efficiencies. Um and then again these are permanent improvements that would be um have to be done at the time of development. A couple things of note here. You'll see about a 10% increase from the assessment or the determination of necessity to the assessment. If you look back at uh Arizona Department of Transportation's construction costs index, essentially inflation, construction inflation, that went up about 14%. So you'll see we actually

beat, if you will, um the construction cost index from then to now. One thing of note, we did have two clarifications from um the land owners up and down the uh of the 11 parcels. I don't know who is here or not here tonight to speak. We did have the opportunity to speak with those two in addition to a third that was um supportive of this process. I would say the conversations were positive and and clarifying in nature. And with that, I'd like to um recommend staff's authorization of the assessment of resolution 30-26.

Okay. Thank you, Riley. Uh we'll start with the public hearing and open a public hearing. And I've got two speaker request cards for item 5A. Um first is uh this is just for record comment only. Uh Maui Mahed and we have that uh recorded for uh just for comment only. Uh Samantha Deamas, you could go right into the bullpen there and and then the microphone will pick up better in that location.

Um my name is Samantha Damas. I'm here on behalf of 8th THVG a Buckeye. Um they are out of state so they couldn't be here tonight. Um we're the parcel on the southeast corner of Miller Road in Watkins and we have concerns about the methodology with the calculations for the project. Um if you refer back to the slide where it compares the 2022 estimates to the 2026 estimates, you'll see an overall increase of about 5% for the project which is standard but for our particular parcel the increase is 48% for one of the smaller parcels. Um and we're it implies that there's a flaw in the assessment calculations or there was an additional scope of work added without our notification. Um a few months ago we tracked with staff and they were on budget. Um, and then we got notification shortly after that there was going to be about a 48% increase. And we've been trying to get the line items on where that 48% increase came from so we can determine if it applies to our parcel by itself or the greater project. We've engaged with staff and we appreciate their efforts to work with us, but we're still not seeing where the extra $220,000 for our specific parcel. So, um, we are hoping that you can continue this item so we can get more clarification on those line items are coming from and make sure it's applied.

Okay. Thank you, Samantha. Uh any other speaker request cards that I don't have up here for 5A? No additional speakers. Additional. Okay. All right. Uh this point then I think we can close the public hearing then address the the comments and questions from council. So I will uh close the public hearing and then uh Riley, can you first maybe address that specific question before we go to council questions?

Yes, sir. So, mayor, uh, I appreciate the the question and the comment. Really, I think the increase in the price is really related to a scope increase that the parcel would have to do at the time of development. Namely, uh, water, sewer, h rough half streetet improvements for Watkins tie into Miller and then drainage improvements. Um, these are developments that would have had to have been done um by the developer at the time of development, but they were not reflected in the 2022 cost estimate due to the, you know, we didn't know that that parcel was coming in. However, as the design evolved, we're able to add those items in. Um, and that is reflective of of uh that increase. And really, if you um look at some of the highlights here, you'll see the water, the sewer, and the rough half streetet and tie-in off of Watkins and the drainage that is was essentially added from that 2022 time to today and makes up the lion share of that increase.

Okay. Thank you, Rally. Uh council, we'll go to council for questions. Uh any questions from council on this agenda item?

Yeah, vice mayor. Thanks, Riley. Um can you kind of walk through the process uh between providing that initial 60% estimate and then the the final figures? How was that communicated to these property owners? And um was it made clear to them that this was a 60% estimate in that initial communication? Vice Mayor, I appreciate the question. Good good question. Um back in May 2022, um I personally was not here, but as I understand it, it was uh articulated from the documents that I can find and the folks that were here, it was very apparent that that was an estimate and subject to change. And from that time through construction and then the iterations with the owners up and down Miller naturally having questions about what those cost estimates are as they continue to evolve. and any sort of update or correspondence throughout or between 2022 to now always contained a disclaimer if you will of these are estimates and we're working to ratify those with actual costs. So, and just speaking hypothetically, between 2022 and now, um, a property owner's vision for their property may have become more clarified and more defined.

That that estimate, initial estimate, um, may not have been on what the final product would be.

That's correct. And and really in specific example here with this parcel, you'll see the exact placement of that drainage is in direct coordination with the owner and specifically works with the site plan of what is eventually going to be a vet clinic that's actually going vertical right now. The infra that drainage infrastructure is permanent infrastructure placed such that it can be used by the vet clinic as it nears completion of its construction. So it was iterative with them. Even the placement of the the water and the sewer lines was was um communicated and and articulated throughout.

So in and just speaking overall I it's been I think is a goal of the city to remove scallops wherever we can possibly remove scallops. Um, so this is a a long-term vision is to to clean up those roadways and and make it easier for people to get from here to there. Um, and to follow with the question, this improvements along Miller, aside from what we're going to be asking the property owners to pay, um, those were bond these are bond dollars, correct? that these are the property owners are paying their fair share, but other pieces of this. Is it coming from the bond that we passed a couple years ago?

Vice Mayor, this project in particular um started before bond dollars or the bond was passed and so in this case, it was funded with largely general fund dollars. Okay. Thank you. Okay. Thank you. Any other comments from council? All right. Uh, council, for agenda item 5A, what is your pleasure? And u, Mr. Attorney, are we you have two objections to this? We have to deal with those in the motion, assuming that that there's a motion for approval.

And the motion, um, if the resolution is referenced, the resolution does, uh, overrule or deny the objections that were in the record. um the two that were uh received in time for the public hearing tonight. So motion if if we're motioning for approval, we have to u recognize resolution numbers 30-26. Correct. Okay. Okay. Council, Mr. Mayor, I make a motion to approve agenda item 5A as an atom. And is this recognizing resolution 3026? Is that correct?

Correct. So, it would be taking action approving resolution number 3026, approving the assessments um and overruling the objections on the street improvements located at Miller Road from Lower Buckeye Road to Puma Street and the capital improvement project number 105260 and additionally authorizing mayor and city engineer to assess the property adjacent to such improvements. Can't write that fast. Can we use what you just said? So, move And council member, if you wish to adopt that uh verbatim, you could say so moved. Yes, ma'am. So moved. All right. All right. We'll need a second.

Second. Have a motion for that um item and a second. All in favor say I. I. I. Opposed. And 5A passes unanimous. Thank you, Riley.

Thanks, sir. Okay. Agenda item 5B. Council to hold a public hearing and take action on ordinance number 06-26 extending increasing the corporate limits of the city of Buckeye Maropa County, state of Arizona pursuant to the provisions of Title 9, Chapter 4, Article 7, Arizona Revised Statutes and amendments there too by annexing approximately 89 acres generally located at the northeast corner of MC85 and SR85. And Miss Mandy Woods. All right. Good evening, mayor, members of the council. My name is Mandy Woods and I am a principal planner here with development services and tonight I will be presenting case plm-25-01000 and this is the second annexation hearing on this case. Just a brief project overview. The applicant on this request is Asencia LLC on behalf of property owner Robert Roadspira LLC and it is located at the northeast corner of MC85 and SR85. Um, and the request involves the annexation of one parcel totaling approximately 089 acres in size. And on this next slide, we can see the the site context and the location in um outlined in red is the subject parcel. So, the existing site um is an existing convenience store with gas sales. To the north is um future industrial. To the south across MC85 is uh transportation and logistics uses. To the east is a future convenience store with um gas sales. And then to the west across SR85 is the APS Hubest facility. the general plan land use of the subject property as well as the area surrounding it is employment. The existing zoning of the property is

Maricopa County General Commercial Commercial or C3. And then upon annexation into the city, this would be assigned an initial zoning of City of Buckeye Regional Commercial, also C3. And because the use is an allowed use in that initial C3 zoning, there is no future reszoning that is anticipated for this parcel. Um, at this time, there are no development plans either as it is already developed. Um, and the intention is for uh the prop the property to connect to city water. The request does meet all eligibility requirements established by state statute. The blank petition was recorded on January 20th of 2026. The first hearing was held in the last 10 days of the waiting period as required and then the petition was signed by all owners necessary and recorded after that 30-day waiting period expired. Um, all notices were completed according to statutory and development code requirements and no public comment has been received on this item and there are no outstanding issues from reviewing departments and divisions. And as stated, this is the second of two required public hearings for this annexation. Staff recommends that council conduct the public hearing on this and adopt ordinance number 6-26 approving the annexation. Thank you.

Okay. Thank you, Mandy. Uh for item 5B, we will open a public hearing. Do we have any speaker request cards for item 5B? No speaker requests. Okay. No speaker requests. We will close the public hearing. And council, any questions on item 5B? I'm seeing none. Council, what's your pleasure on 5B? Mr. Mayor, I make a motion we approve agenda. Item 5B is in boy. Second. I have a motion for approval and a second of agenda item 5B. All in favor say I. I. And opposed. And 5B passes unanimous. Thank you.

Right. Uh item 5 C, council to hold a public hearing and take action on ordinance number 07-26 extending and increasing the corporate limits of the city of Buckeye Maropa County, state of Arizona pursuant to the provisions of title 9, chapter 4, article 7, Arizona revised statutes and amendments there too by annexing approximately 85 acres generally located at the southeast corner of Interstate 10 and State Route 85. and you're not Sean Bonda and I feel like you're going to have plenty of time here later, but you feel like you need more this agenda item. No comment.

No, Sean is unable to join us uh this evening, so I am um filling in for him. Uh he would be much more entertaining than I will be, but I'll try my best. Uh, this is like Mandy's item. Um, the second public hearing for the Buckeye 83 annexation case PLZM25 Triple08. Uh, the applicant for this is Wendy Redell of Barry Redell Law Firm on behalf of the property owner, an LLC. Um, the location of the property, and I'll show you some maps in just a second, is the southeast corner of I 10 and SR85. Uh the request tonight is simply the annexation of these parcels totaling approximately 85 uh acres. Um so you probably remember this. This is the site about 85 acres by um bisected by 266th Avenue. Most of it on the east side um but a small triangle uh portion on the west. Um it's surrounded by today vacant land on all four sides. though the future expansion of West Park residential uh is expected to occur to the east and kind of south of this property um with additional um uses commercial industrial to uh to the kind of southwest and of course the freeways um to the north and west of this property. Uh the general plan designates this site as business commerce. Um, so that is different than the blue color that you see on the south end of the screen. That is uh more of a commercial type of land use. Um, it does allow for some limited um light industrial types of uses as long as the uh buildings are are moderately sized uh and more compatible with adjacent residential. So uh the

concept uh here is to reszone this site at a future meeting uh to business park um with those smaller buildings non-cross stock type of uh business park light industrial uses. Um the existing zoning in the county is uh currently rural 43 which is a residential large lot zoning district. Uh tonight, if council were to approve this annexation, it will have uh our equivalent, which is the R143 district. Uh as I mentioned, in the future, we will uh be coming back to council uh to request a reszoning for this site. The annexation does meet all of the state's eligibility requirements uh pertaining to annexations. Uh blank petition was recorded. Uh the first public hearing, there were no speakers. Uh that was about a month ago and we have no additional outstanding issues. Um so mayor with that we do recommend uh council conduct a public hearing tonight and uh consider the ordinance and we we uh suggest approval of that ordinance.

Okay. Thank you, Ken. Uh item 5C will open a public hearing. Do we have any speaker request cards for 5C? Speaker requests. No speaker requests. Uh we will then close the public hearing. Council, any questions on agenda item 5C? Council member Hustus, just a quick one for you. Where was access going to be to this property?

Uh council member, that's a good question. Let me go back to the aerial here. Um so despite this property having amazing visibility from I 10 and SR85, the access is a little more uh indirect. Um, primarily I would expect the access to come off of State Route 85 via Broadway uh and then come up the uh future 266th Avenue here uh which comes around and then turns into Durango. Um that will be an alternative alternate way to get to this property is off the 10 uh to Durango and then uh to follow that around. There will not be any access through West Park to your knowledge. Uh there will not be any any direct connections to the neighborhood for this. No.

Okay. Thank you, Mr. Mayor. Yes, sir. Any other questions? Okay, council, what's your pleasure on 5C? Mr. Mayor, I'd like to make a motion to approve agenda item 5C is in Charles. Second. I have a motion for approval and a second. All in favor say I. I. I. Opposed. 5C passes unanimous.

Thank you, Ken. All right, don't go anywhere. 5D. Council will hold a public hearing and take action on ordinance number 08-26 extending and increasing the corporate limits of the city of Buckeye, Maropa County, state of Arizona, pursuant to the provisions of title 9, chapter 4, article 7, Arizona revised statutes and amendments or two by annexing approximately 1,918.85 acres generally bounded by Broadway Road to the north, Jack Rabbit Trail to the east, MC85 to the south, and Dean Road to the west. Um, Mr. Galica, you're up again.

This time I am presenting on behalf of myself. Um, so this is all those things that you just mentioned. Uh, and I I'll detail this a little bit at the end of the presentation as well, just to refresh your memory, but uh these are um two separate cases. There will be at the end two separate public hearings, two separate actions by council um three ordinances um two of them on the same action. Uh so somewhat uh complicated but uh it's the way it has to be done. So uh the applicant tonight, Alan Bodwin of Norris Design on behalf of the ownership, which is Grand View Buckeye LLC. Um twofold request. The first being the annexation of uh 1,919 acres, and I'll show you where that's located in just a second. Uh the second is to reszone that 1919 acres plus uh a little over 300 more acres already in the city uh from a combination of existing zoning R143 I1 and rural residential uh to our community master plan uh for a project that's being called Grand View Buckeye. Uh the location as the maps will show uh is kind of in a regular area but generally bounded on the north uh by Broadway Road. Um to the south MC85. Uh Dean Road is a pretty clean boundary on the west side and then the property does extend uh out to Jack Rabbit on the uh the far east side. Um a few things to point out with these exhibits. Uh looking at the aerial, the the surrounding area and the property itself uh is almost uh totally used for agricultural purposes right now, whether that's being farmed um with crops or dairy farming. Uh there is uh of course a few scattered residences mostly located in the county uh in the vicinity of the property.

Excuse me. Um the the Union Pacific Railroad tracks uh do uh bisect the site. you follow my mouse uh right about here. Uh and then the Buckeye Canal kind of angles across the property as well. Uh looking at the zoning map, the portions shown in white, those are the portions that are not currently within the city's jurisdiction. Those are the portions that are being annexed. The portions that are in color are the portions already in uh you can see the site and most of the surrounding site is in the county currently. Um the portions that are in this gray portion at the northeast corner uh is zoned for light industrial. Um and then we have some rural residential here as well as a little bit of general commerce. Uh the general plan was amended for this property I think 2021 um so about 5 years ago uh to change the designation to employment with the anticipation that uh this would be one of the city's prime sites for uh what economic development would call a mega user uh if we're going to attract u you know the next insert uh electric car manufacturer uh here um to to produce their their vehicles from top to bottom. This would be a site for something like that. Um, so the simplest part of the request is the annexation. Um, the map shows you the the properties that are subject to that. Again, it's a little over 1900, I think it's 1900, 19 acres. Uh, all of the requirements were met. The blank petition was recorded. Uh, the first public hearing was a while ago. It was back in August of last year. Um, so we're coming up on about nine months. Uh there weren't any speakers at that for the annexation. Uh all of the notices uh that the statute requires have been completed. Uh the purpose of the annexation is really to ensure that development of this site uh does um be

held to a standard that's higher than what the county uh would require. All right. So the vision I kind of touched on already. It's really to see this site develop as a rail served regional industrial hub uh with potential for complimentary secondary uh commercial as well as residential could be single family and or multifamily residential uses. Uh and I'll explain how this CMP is set up. Uh it has three land use districts. The regional employment shown here in purple. uh the residential village or residential essentially uh shown in yellow and then a commercial district for more retail uh types of uses, restaurants, services, uh those types of things shown in red. Now, you'll notice as I scroll here, these colors are applied to a lot of the same areas, and I'll explain uh why that works. Um so the employment district again kind of going back to where we started what the focus was and what the focus still is. Um it's to make this site attractive for that next big thing from a industrial standpoint. Um so the employment district the purple color would be applicable to the entire site. Uh meaning that if that user wants this entire property uh they can take it build their factory uh and with the exception of 32 acres um they would be able to not have to build any residential have to build any commercial etc. Um the uses uh that would be permitted within this purple district uh are mostly light industrial um at least on the perimeter of the site. Uh everything on the exterior that you'll see from off of this property um within 500 ft of those streets uh is limited to enclosed light industrial uses. Uh heavier industrial uses, a few of them

um are permitted uh within the interior of the site and is cross-hatched. uh objectionable uses or at least those that we we believe that the council has objected to in the past. Uh marijuana related establishments, etc., junkyards, things that don't look so great, um have been written out of this document. Uh rail access is prioritized. Uh that's one of the reasons we love this site is because it does have almost two miles of frontage on the railroad tracks. uh the residential village district. Again, um there's no requirement for this residential component to be built. Uh but if the developer wishes to uh not build the entire site with with uh employment or industrial um could look at developing these areas uh with residential uses would allow up to um 0 to 750 acres uh with a maximum unit count around 60 not around at 6,500 units. Uh so that comes to a target density of around 6.75. Uh these are these could be single family, could be multif family. If it is uh it does include multifamily, it would be limited to 150 acres in total. Now there is some permission within the CMP uh that these could shift slightly uh but in no case um would you be able to develop a residential area that is surrounded uh on more than uh two sides by uh industrial Uh the commercial district as it sounds um these are locations that are identified at arterial arterial intersections. Uh there is a minimum that they provide 32 acres of this

mainly to account for for just the needs the daily needs of any employees uh that could be working here in the future. Uh you know a sandwich shop, a gas station, whatever the employees uh might need just for convenience uh sake. uh those are C2 district community commercial scale retail restaurant office type of uses. Uh this CMP is required because it proposes uh residential uses uh within the employment designation um to provide for adequate land use transitions um subject to of course the council's uh approving those. Um we believe this does a good job of achieving that. Uh it does limit those heavier industrial uses on the exterior of the property. Um so from uh you know for from Broadway for instance uh this will look like a higher quality light industrial uh type of development. Uh there are significant setbacks provided uh both for uh industrial buildings from residential when adjacent as well as the service areas having even double uh setback 150 foot in that case. Uh and then of course a 30-foot landscape buffer to provide the trees that that screen and buffer. Uh design is uh is prioritized within this document. uh facades visible from streets as well as neighborhoods, residential properties uh are required to incorporate movement, variation, high quality materials. You see some pretty good examples of photos. Uh these are representative images, not necessarily the exact buildings that will be constructed out here by any means. Uh but the types of things that uh staff will point to if uh an uglier building type of thing is is proposed. Uh all the landscaping uh which there will be plenty uh is required to be drought tolerant and used to beautify streetscapes as well as proide provide

screening and um if the future SR30 alignment runs adjacent to this property uh up to six billboards would be allowed on this site. Other than that uh it's very uh very standard requirements. Uh the developer will be responsible for street improvements both internal to this uh project as well as any half street improvements on the perimeter of the site uh meaning you know for Broadway the the north or excuse me the south half of that street. Um the city will consider uh allowing in the future uh Southern Avenue to not cross this property, terminating on on both sides of it uh if there was a mega user type of development uh to allow that that to have less u breakups. Uh water and wastewater. Um there's two potential options uh for this. one is probably more likely than the other. Uh it could be uh provided by the city of Buckeye most likely uh or selfs serve meaning well and private type of uh sewer service. Uh if served by the city, the developer would uh construct new regional water and wastewater campuses and then turn those over to the city uh at at the conclusion of the construction. Uh if um if self-s served, obviously that would just be uh the developer's responsibility to construct uh public safety. Uh there is a site identified along Jack Rabbit um for that the fire and police departments have uh consent consented to, excuse me. Uh and that's a component in the development agreement as well. Uh and then um up to two years of maintenance and operations

uh for that facility as well unless the uh temporary station is replaced by the permanent station. Excuse me. All right. The um I mentioned the development agreement. That's kind of the third component of this project. The annexation, the reasoning development agreement. Uh the term is 25 years between the city and developer. Um this does allow for uh impact fee credits and or repayment from uh properties that are defined as in the in the agreement as benefited um to the extent that regional or oversized public infrastructure is constructed. So if this project builds a sewer line that's bigger than they need for the benefit of the surrounding properties, uh the portion that that goes above and beyond what what they need would be uh reimburseable. um fire uh engine and related equipment are also covered uh in this reimbursement agreement as well as a permanent public safety facility. Uh the city obligations as part of the development agreement would be to construct a 16inch water line uh from the Jackiemech water campus to this project at the southeast corner of Broadway and Dean as well as to consider uh funding future design and construction of a Verado Way widening project uh between Broadway on the south up to Van Beerren Street. uh neighborhood meeting. This this project has been in process for quite some time. So, we held the original neighborhood meeting back in April of 2024. It was Bart Windgard's project. At the time, I wasn't there. Um but BART uh reported that there was a good number of attendees. Most of the discussion was focused on the future State Route 30

alignment and how that would impact, excuse me, surrounding properties. Um, we've also had additional discussions with several of the owners in the vicinity of this Grand View site. Um, in the months and years uh since that original neighborhood meeting, um, a lot of the discussion post that meeting has been about water and sewer. How can uh how this project might um improve the developability of their surrounding parcels uh if there's water or sewer infrastructure brought closer uh to this site. Uh, the planning and zoning commission did recommend approval of this resoning back in February, February 10th, and there were no speakers during that public hearing, and all notices have been completed as required. Uh, starting to wrap up here. I think I have two slides left. Um, approval of the annexation of course is required before the property can be reszoned. So, for some reason the council doesn't approve the annexation, uh, we basically stop at that point. U, the CMP itself, as proposed and as I tried to describe tonight, is consistent with that general plan employment land use designation. Uh, it does, um, really focus on those light industrial industrial uses. Um, does have some some ancillary secondary uses permitted, but not necessarily required. Um and the the PA does actually include in my my opinion uh very clear criteria to make sure that the impacts on any residential are mitigated. Uh the project especially, you know, if if developed uh right now it's just on paper, but the project if developed would further multiple general plan goals uh primarily related to economic development, job attraction, uh maintaining uh the ability of our residents here in Buckeye to work within

their community and not have to commute. Um the proposed uses are appropriate, especially given the proximity of the site to rail, uh with the heavier industrial uses and the interior of the site. Um we do provide for tailored standards within here to make sure that this is going to be an aesthetically attractive community or development I should say. Uh and of course the infrastructure improvements whatever the the developer does build in terms of streets, water, sewer potentially um will certainly have some beneficial impacts on surrounding properties. Uh that was a long presentation. Thank you for your attention. We do recommend again two uh separate hearings and actions tonight. The first being a uh public hearing for the annexation recommending approval of ordinance 08-26. Uh and then a separate public hearing for the CMP and development agreement all in one action and that would approve two ordinances 09-26 and 10-26. So uh mayor with that I'm available for questions. Uh I know Alan Bodwin and the U team from Grand View uh is here as well uh and I'm sure would be happy to address you.

Okay. Thank you, Ken. Uh we will start by opening a public hearing on agenda item 5D. And I have uh two speaker request cards. Uh first is Mr. Daryl Kyper. I'm Daryl Kyper. Um, and I have a couple farms in the Liberty area where this uh zoning and annexation's taken place. I'm not against the zoning or annexation. and I'm here mainly to hope that we wouldn't approve the plan with the alignment being on MC85 for the state route 30. Um we uh at the first public hearing it was the Vanderway's u planner that stated that uh they had put the u the 303 alignment um for favor of Estansia and Maricopa Association of Governments approved it. And so, uh, while this isn't binding with that alignment, um, we think it sets a precedence that the stakeholders would like to go on record. Um, I I have one of the two farms I have in Liberty has a half mile frontage right across from two historic sites, the school and the Methodist church there in Liberty. and uh you know uh that that is also bounded by a historic site of the cemetery. So I think it would maybe go between that. Um not necessarily am I here to protect that. I feel like it's more about the flood

plane and the things that happened in the um Tempe area with 202 really helped the flood plane especially on the north side uh there. And and so if we could show that alignment closer to bloat road or you know maybe south of bloat road but even if it is north or between bloat road and the south extension canal a whole bunch more of the uh ground would come I think out of the flood plane and and um that's you know mainly why um we would speak against approving it as with that alignment in in the plan. Um, I would tell you also that in the the runup of uh 20056 before the '08 crash, there was a east of Buckeye uh sewer study done to see what it would take. I think Gar Lamb, the Lamrest Dairy, was was in that group. Um, I was asked when I owned some of the the ground that Vanderways later bought on Dean Road and MC85 if I would uh allow a uh a test hole to be run to see what a sewer solution would look like. And u there was a track hole with a 4ft bucket that um hit water about 10 to 12 feet by 14 feet. They had so much water they couldn't go any deeper to to give the study what it would need to to get below that perched or or shallow water. Uh below road is is going to be the same u kind of water problem. I just want to say that when Bello Road has had those water problems that Magg wouldn't favor one or the other, the same water problem exists for

anchoring the peers properly and and all of that. So, I know my time's up. So, thank you. Thank you, Mr. Kyper. Uh Steven Bales. is as long as you finish by the red. Don't start yet. You can't do that.

Mr. Mayor, council, my name is Steven Bales Jr. and this isn't my first council meeting to come to. I was summoned here by the mayor in 1962. It was a different building back then. The mayor was named John Balote. He was my great-grandfather. I was his first great-grandson. And that was my first birthday at that particular meeting in ' 62. So I'm not that old everybody. I'm I'm old, but you know, not that old to come up for for Grandpa Belotes while he was the mayor. His father drove a herd of cattle into the Buckeye Valley in 1882 and settled on the north banks of the Heila River out there in what Daryl said is Liberty. And then they homesteaded and got papers that hang proudly in our office today, 1892, signed by President Harrison, even though I think his secretary probably signed it because it was signed in the territorial capital of Tucson. And then he bought out his neighbor who couldn't hack the heat, I guess, or the saltwater or something. And so he put together those two parcels there. And they've been there since um 1882. He brought his wife out from the well his girlfriend out from the east, married her a half a mile west from the homestead there on Belote Road under the elderberry tree in April and they raised 14 children in that red two-story house that's on Bologute Road today where my family still farms. Now the Bales family came along a lot later in 1915 and people asked how did bloat and bales get together. Well, my grandmother, my dad's mom was a bloat. And so she ended up marrying the farmer's son down the road, Wallace Bales. And so the union began even though they had 14 kids, they ran out of bloat heirs to run the farm of the ranch. And it jumped over on the bale side. So when you farm a place this long, you live here and you make your living here in blood and sweat and tears. You love it. You love the place, you love the land, you love the community. The high school is built on

Bologute land. That's why it's below road out in front out here. Lower River Road was turned into Bello Road in the 50 when one of my bloke cousins said, "Why don't we name some of these county roads that have innocuous names like Lower River and South Bend and blah blah blah. Name them after some of these pioneer families before they're gone." So that's how you get Narammore and Bruner Road and Turner Road and all these other names that mean something to people who've been around for a long time. So I'm not here to, like Daryl said, to speak against the Vanderways project. It looks like it's world class to me. What I'm concerned about is any mention of the State Route 30 in these documents. Like Daryl said, it sets a type of a a precedence or it looks like it puts your impremimeter on it that you're approving of that. And I think that project is a larger type of project that's going to involve the county and even citizens of the state and that all stakeholders should be able to participate in where that route would go. If it's not on this annex land there, it would come possibly south of the highway and that would be on legacy land holdovers like myself, Mr. Kyper, I see Mr. Ladro, a lot of other people. So, that's what I'm concerned about. You guys sticking your stamp on SR30 and its potential route.

Thank you, Mr. Mayor. Thank you, Mr. Bales. That was two and a half minutes of history lesson and 30 seconds of uh State Route 30 talk. I really appreciate that. Okay. Uh thank you both. Do we have any other speaker request cards on item 5D? No additional speakers.

Okay. Uh then we will close the public hearing on item 5D. Uh Mr. Glee, I got some questions just based on those two items. Uh I know there's state route 30 has not that corridor has not been defined yet and there's a I think as both of them it's had a lengthy process a lot of input uh from stakeholders all up and down the uh state route 30 that determine where that that route goes. the um I think the significance of showing it where it's shown on here is really just for conceptual purposes from my perspective and uh I've seen other conceptual plans that have shown State Route 30 going up right through the middle of this property. Uh, and and I think what the applicant I'm pretty sure I'm going to see head nods on this is and and in fact in the the master plan and the the documents that are part of the whole agenda, uh, it says it could go there or anywhere south of 85, but I think the intent is let's just not bisect a perfectly um set piece of property for that mega project with a infrastructure project as uh as big as that. And I I can appreciate everything that Mr. Bales and Mr. Kyper are saying with respect to where that could land and does it go on below or in that that corridor, but none of that's defined. And this document doesn't find that. And and uh I I think we agree that as long as it's not bicting the Grand View Dair property, anywhere 85 or south to below somewhere in that area is is where that corridor likely goes.

Yeah, Mayor. um everything you said is pretty accurate. Um the the only thing I would say is if ADAT wants to put it right through the middle of this property, they won't hesitate to do that. So even that's an option probably in the future. I'm not saying it's a good one. Um but it's something that they'll probably look into. Um but yes, just to to uh elaborate, um the the a conceptual alignment is shown on I think one or two exhibits with within the document just to show potentially what could happen. Um it does very clearly say that the alignment is is shown conceptually and then includes some language that you know to inform uh future decision- making meaning see what our plan is um as far as what land uses are and how you could potentially you know negatively impact us by running the property or running the freeway through that property. So that is the intent. um talked with Tusca a little bit this this morning and if if council wants to um you know very clearly put on the record that we are in no way endorsing the alignment shown in this you know in the future we can you know future generations of planners and transportation engineers can go back and understand what what the intent was tonight.

Okay. I I think that's that's appropriate. We're we're saying that out loud here on the record that that is a conceptual alignment. Uh that's not something that's endorsed by the city. Um I I think the endorsement is do not put it through the middle of the Grand View property. But beyond that, it's a it's a long arduous process that AOT goes through to determine exactly where ADOT and MAG determine exactly where that corridor is. Yeah. Okay.

Thank you, Mayor and Council. They're not being asked to approve an alignment for SR30 tonight by through the approvals requested for the annexation or the resoning and development agreement. In the CMP, as um Ken mentioned, there is a depiction that shows a the applicant's desired location. There is also verbiage in the narrative that Ken referenced that that essentially highlights two desired locations, but the overarching goal um at least in the CMP, the way I read it is not to bisect the property as was um made clear in the earlier comments um from from you and from Ken.

Okay. All right. I think we've beat that one. Uh any any other questions or comments from from council on the annexation uh item 5D ordinance number 08-26 vice mayor.

So um Tusca, how would we articulate that in a document and that so it's crystal clear that we're not endorsing this as a SR30 option? It in my opinion it is clear already from the verbiage of the CMP because again there is a proposal from GVB as part of their desired circulation their conceptual circulation plan for uh traffic to and from the property. Um in my opinion I don't believe that any additional clarification is is needed. We do have this record uh tonight. However, if uh you had if you wanted to um I guess request an an amendment to remove the the concept, I don't don't know that it's needed in light of the verbiage as it stands now. It it is fairly clear.

Okay. Thank you. Okay, council. Agenda item 5D. What is your pleasure? Mr. Mayor, I'll make the motion that we approve agenda item 5D as in David. Second. I have a motion and two seconds. All for approval of agenda item 5D. All in favor say I. I. I.

And opposed. 5D passes unanimous. On to 5E. Uh already been presented on. We will open a public hearing for ordinance number 09-26 and ordinance number ordinance number 10-27 approving the pre-anexation uh and development agreement. Uh so we've covered in 5D the two speaker request cards that I had. Do we have any further speaker request cards? We're in a public hearing uh for item 5e. We have one speaker request. Rick Ladra.

Okay. Rick Ladra. Not seeing Rick Ladra here. Is he in the lobby?

Okay. I don't see Mr. Ladra not it. Uh maybe out front real quick. I just want to make sure we don't miss an opportunity for public comment. I do think we should have uh Mr. Bales do a history moment at about every council meeting that we have if that's appropriate. M attorney.

Oh joy. Okay. All right. Uh so we will then close the public hearing and uh council. Any questions on agenda item 5e? Okay. I'm seeing none. I have one question on this. You talked about infrastructure reimbursements. Uh mainly that infrastructure reimbursement is related to either roadways uh I heard public safety facilities or water wastewater. Um, can can you describe how that is um how that's structured and where the dollars come from for the reimbursement? And maybe, Miss Attorney, that's a a question for you on this. Where where do the revenues come to pay for the infrastructure reimbursements?

Thank Thank you, Mayor and Council. And I'll go ahead and address that. And then it also looks as though um our economic dire development director may have some comments for the record. The reimburseable infrastructure uh is divided into three different buckets. The water wastewater facilities if they are constructed um and any portions that are regional or oversized including the lines in and out, fire engine and related equipment. And then lastly, the permanent public safety facility, which would be a joint police and fire facility. Included in the permanent public safety facility is a dedication of land component. Earlier, Ken referenced the location off of Jack Rabbit. That is an exhibit to the development agreement. to the question about reimbursement. The development agreement uh reimbursement framework contemplates reimbursement from tax revenues received by the city from construction sales tax, primary real and personal uh property taxes as well as lease taxes generated from eligible uses as defined in the agreement. These are the types of uses such as data center um advanced manufacturing u biomed device research development manufacturing etc. And similar uses the um uh revenues would start being paid out or reimbursement uh eligibility starts after $10 million of revenues are uh received by the city from the eligible uses and from those tax streams. and would be paid out according to the verified costs submitted to the city for the three buckets of eligible public infrastructure.

Okay, great. Thank you for the clarification on that. I just want to make uh perfectly clear for the public uh that this isn't funds that come from a different piece of uh property. It's not funds that that come from um enterprise funds throughout the city. The revenues that pay for the reimbursement are tied specifically to to new revenues coming in off of uh facilities that are being built on the Grand View property. That is correct. Okay. Okay. Great. Uh I I think enough said on that about 82 more pages of the development agreement if you'd like me to go. I've got a lot more information. You did really well on that.

Got a full house tonight. So happy to keep on going if there are additional questions. We're going to do history and and legal all in the same uh even part. Uh no, I appreciate that. I just want to make that abundantly clear so that everybody understands where the revenues come from to to reimburse for the the development. Uh Councilman Hagistan. Yeah, I just kind of a followup on that. I see that that portion comes with the difference whether it's regional or not, but there was a discussion about whether or not some of this infrastructure they could self-run it or they could turn it over to the city like the water and wastewater itself. Is that covered by this or are they going to set up a CFD or do we know yet?

The development agreement is aimed to provide flexibility to the property owner as they develop. If they uh if the uses on the property are such that self-service or a self-service model is appropriate, then the city would not operate maintain any of the the water wastewater facilities. Okay. But if they turned it over to the city, then there's is there a re reimbursement structure for that as well? If the facility was turned over to the city and there was a regional or oversized portion of um either or both facilities, then those oversized portions would be eligible for reimbursement. Okay. But not not this part that serves that parcel itself. That is correct. Thank you.

Okay. Thank you, Councilman Hagistad. Any other questions on on this item? Right. I'm seeing none. Council agenda item 5e. What's your pleasure? Mr. Mayor, I'd like to make a motion that we approve agenda item 5e as in Edward. Second. I have a motion for approval of agenda item 5e and a second. All in favor say I. I.

And opposed. 5e passes unanimous. Thank you very much. Just a a couple comments. This has been what feels like three decades worth of work. I know it's not nearly that. Uh Mr. Vanderway shaking his head. Yes. Uh I'm incredibly grateful for all the work that you all have put in on this piece of property and uh this is I think one of the most premier megaite project uh sites in the uh in the entire metro Phoenix area. uh rail served water uh power right across the street in a in a couple of substations and there I don't think is any other site that compares to this one either in Buckeye or across Metro Phoenix. I'm getting the thumbs up from economic development. So, thank you for hanging in there and getting to the finish line on this and we cannot wait to land our next mega project on this uh and continue to partner on this. And then from a staff perspective, uh thank you for the the mountains of work that you all have gone through and in getting this to the finish line, uh I think we quote in some of our speeches that uh economic development is a team sport and that is everybody on the city team plus everybody on your team making this happen. And I can't wait to see the fruits from from this as as we move forward. So I appreciate everybody's work on this and uh it's probably time for you all to go out and celebrate at this point. So, thank you. Okay. Agenda item 5F. Uh, I'll read this and then we have a little bit of a change on this one. Uh, 5F is council hold a public hearing and take action on resolution number uh 32-26 approving and adopting the rate schedule for water and wastewater rates, rate components, fees or service charges set. Fourth, in the documented titled schedule of fees, setting an effective date and repealing

conflicting resolutions or parts of resolutions. Uh for this, staff has requested council continue the public hearing on the schedule of fees to May 5th, 2026 to allow for additional public outreach. Before considering the continuence, uh how many I have at least two speaker request cards. uh you all are interested in in speaking on this tonight, this agenda item.

I'm seeing uh yes from both of you. Um you are invited to return on May 5th, 2026 to speak during the public hearing. You may also provide comments now. Uh this would be outside of the public hearing, but these comments would be recorded um and be part of the record uh uh the part of the May 5th public hearing record. Uh, so I'll call you each up one at a time and you guys can give comments. Now, we're not going to hear the whole thing. We're not going to vote on it tonight. It's getting continued until May 5th. But we want the opportunity for you guys to speak to this tonight. And you're welcome to come back May 5th also and and speak at at that meeting um instead or in addition to uh speaking here tonight. So, uh, Mr. Tom Barry, would you like to come forward? Good evening, Mr. Mary, Mr. Mayor, council members, staff. My name is Tom Barry. I am a resident of Sun City Festival which is a 55 plus community within the uh Festival Ranch community in extreme district 4. I believe that the majority of the residents in Festival Ranch understand the need for a rate increase. We are also acceptable of the inevitability of that rate increase. There is not that consensus however on how the HOA rates are going to be determined and assessed.

For example, the vast majority of the HOA water consumption is to service the common areas of the community, the landscape needs of the common areas of the community. In an ideal world, it would be nice to have residential rates to service that extension of the residential portion of the community, but realistically the bottom line is not going to support something like that. However, to put the HOA into a commercial category via the size of the meter or because of the inevitable consumption is also not right. Um there should be a another category dedicated to HOA. The HOA, particularly in a large community like Festival Ranch, has a vast number of meter sizes that basically do the same thing in order to service its different sizes of common area. So to put it into a commercial type rate where a commercial company via their pricing models and their cost of goods sold can absorb a price higher for uh uh water in a um uh residential community, HOA community, the residents themselves absorb that as a direct pass through the HOA to the uh residents via an increased uh assessment for HOA fees.

I think that it would be uh much uh wider accepted if there was a category for HOA with the rates to determine uh because of HOA use which is basically residential versus commercial. Be happy to answer any question you may have. Thank you, Mr. Barry. I think what we're not handling this as a uh public hearing, so we're not we're not the doing the question answer, but I would encourage you to chat with Terry Low. I think he's probably got some good news for for you on u on what you're bringing up here. Okay.

Um he's in the back right there. All the problems go to Terry Low tonight. So, uh please get a second to chat with him about that. Yeah. Thank you. Thank you, Mr. Barry.

Okay. Mr. Steve Sterling. Good evening. Um, I'm Steve Sterling. I'm a resident of Buckeye. Acknowledging that this issue is pushed uh back a little bit just to give maybe a little food for thought on the water issue because uh it seems like we're back here as a state and a city again when it comes down to water. Um we know that the state officials are trying to negotiate more water rights which directly impact our farmers and therefore everything kind of rolls downhill with other municipalities raising the rates Gilbert so in good year so forth as high as 25%. I I do recall, I believe it was 2023, we were in the news about water again, um about how healthy our water situation was. Um and Buckeye officials were saying that we have secure water. We have we're doing we're very healthy when it comes down to water. Even one official saying that um the media was sensationalizing the water issue and that Buckeye's doing quite well. And so as a resident, I felt good about where we were because I don't know anything about the desert, you know. So if a guy is telling us water is good, water is good. You see the farms, water's flowing, it's good. We see all the housing going up, water must be good. And so now few years later, we're back with the water situation where we're thinking about raising rates. and whether it's misinformation, miscalculation, or whatever it is, I guess it doesn't matter at this point, but and it's inevitable that the water is going to go up with the state's situation when

it comes down to water. I only hope to encourage the council to at least delay 12 months maybe any type of increase in water because while a family as such as myself, my household, we can tolerate an increase, I know families who are already bending at the cost of everything else. Everything that has their name on has an arrow going up. And so even a small delay of 12 months of the inevitable can go a long way with families who are negatively impacted by the unfortunate natures of the desert. So I'd like you to just please consider that not only tonight but into the next meeting into the future to see if we can uh better help out Buckeye residents and give us that confidence that that at least an individual like myself had uh three years ago. Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Sterling. Okay. Uh, that's all the speaker request cards I have for 5F. No more there. Okay. Thank you. Um, all right. So, council, can I have a motion to continue the public hearing to May 5th, 2026 at 6 p.m. in the council chambers? Move. Second. Motion to continue and a second. All in favor say I. I

I and opposed. And this will be continued until May 5th uh 2026 at 6:00 pm. All right. Up next is uh comments from the mayor and council. Do we have any comments tonight from mayor and council? All right. I'm seeing none. On to city manager reporting some of your current events.

Since you guys said no, I have a whole bunch of them here. actually just two. Uh the annual spring celebration was held last weekend and we welcomed approximately 2600 attendees to the event which featured several vendors, a wide range of free activities including inflatables, a petting zoo, crafts, and several egg hunts which had over 47,000 eggs out for people to pick up. And the second item that I have is the Verado Victory cell tower update. We've done a lot of outreach on uh cell reception in the Verado area and things that individuals can do, but I'm just glad to report that last week we did have Verizon submit an application for a Tiger Mountain Sunrise cell tower site. It's currently under review and should be approved by the city shortly so that they can get going on getting that tower installed and helping sell service in that area. Those are the two items I have. Thank you very much.

Outstanding. Thank you, Mr. City Manager. Uh item eight is proposal for future agenda items. Any from council? I'm not seeing any. Item number nine. With nothing else on the agenda, we are ajourn.
