I will be handing it over to Sally for questions. We have one in the chat. The question is approximately which month do you all expect that council will approve the bid? We expect it probably January next year. Okay. Thank you. And I will have some questions about that from my areas. Brenda, do you want to translate that? Oh, for that. The question was in which month do you expect the city to approve the contract? And I think this will be in January 2022. That's the only question we have in chat. It looks like we have three call-in users. Do you have any questions? I was working on typing. Can you hear me? Yes. Yeah, my question is you said you would take the contractor with the lowest bid. Do you mean the lowest bid or the contractor with the best and lowest bid? The lowest bidder will have to have three call-in users in me, but we will do the lowest responsible bidder. I only have a question. This is Sita. Another question. I live on Blue Lake Drive on the section of the street that ends with the cul-de-sac, where there's a lot, has been a lot of problems with the water main over the 16 years that I've lived here. And I'm sorry for getting in the way. I had some trouble with the WebEx. So I missed, is that, is the process that's proposed now part of the correction, permanent correction to that problem or the best correction to that problem? Are you on the street right here? Yes. No, no, no. I'm on Blue Lake Drive down by the cul-de-sac. Oh, down here? Yeah, I'm down by the cul-de-sac at the end of the very end of Blue Lake Drive. So closer to that bridge street? No, you're right. You're probably, you were probably right where you had yours. This is like a dead end, like a, I think right here, right? Yeah, that's probably right. We will be replacing if you're, because Rain Tree Court's right about here, I believe. Okay, yes. Yeah, so we will be replacing that water main so that should fix any issues you've had with your water. Okay. La pregunta era vamos, que si vamos a re, tenía problemas aquí en Blue Lake Drive adnorted a Rain Tree Court y quería saber si va, tenía problemas con agua. Quería saber si el proyecto iba a resolver esos problemas y si vamos a reemplazar la línea de agua para resolver esos problemas del agua. Okay, Brenda, we've got two more questions. What about our driveway access during construction? Will we be able to get into our driveway? Yeah, so you shouldn't have problems for most of those constructions. However, when we're doing pavement, they might need to close off access for a little bit, but the inspector or the superintendent at there will let you know if your access will be limited. La pregunta era durante la construcción voy a tener problemas con mi entrada de coche y durante la mayoría del proyecto tendrá problemas por si alguna razón. Tienen que estar trabajando en su área para cubrir la calle y se le cierra la carretera para el carro, la abrida para el carro le digita el inspector en el proyecto antes de que eso pase para que esté listo para esa disturbiencia. And the next question is from Terry. Will the neighborhood entrance for White Lake Hills at Lake Habasute Trail and Randall Mill be closed at any time for the construction? White Lake Hills at Lake Habasute Trail and Randall Mill. Since we don't have a contractor on board yet, we are not sure what the traffic control will be, but once we have that construction meeting, we can provide more details on that. La pregunta va a ser durante la construcción se va a tapar esa entrada de Lake Habasute Trail and Randall Mill Road. Y ahorita no tenemos un contratista, so no sabemos cómo vamos a estar cerrando esas calles. Cuando tengamos la cita de construcción más tarde, vamos a tener más detalles en cómo se van a cerrar esas calles. Okay, I don't have any more in chat. Do any of you have more questions? Yeah, this is Stina. I do have another question. There's, on my property, like a lot of other homes on the stretch of Blue Lake Drive that I'm on, mine is particularly bad. I have really bad drainage from the streets above me. Will this correct any of that? So this isn't a storm drain project, but I can get in contact with the TPW staff that does work on storm drains and let them know you have an issue to see if they want to have a project out there when we're out there. That would be excellent. This really is an ongoing problem that sometimes is really bad. Of course, can I get your name and number so I can get them to reach out to you as well? Sure. It's Theta, T-H-E-D-A, Lynch, L-Y-N-C-H, and my address is 621 Blue Lake Drive. My number is 817-247-7099. All right, I will have, I will reach out to them and have them reach out to you as well. Yeah, no problem. La pregunta era que en Blue Lake Drive hay problemas de drenaje y quería saber si esos problemas iban a corregir con este proyecto. Este proyecto no va a corregir en drenaje en la área, pero voy a ponerme en contacto con TPW para ver si ellos pueden hacer un proyecto mientras que estamos ahí afuera con este proyecto. Okay, do we have any questions from Mr. Terry and I don't know who at home is. Do you have any other questions for Theta? That's all that I can think of right now. Those are the hot buttons for the water issues in my area that I'm aware of. I do have a question if you don't mind. I'm Terry. Okay. The entrance of White Lake Hills at Randall Mill and Lake Havasu Trail has a garden that's maintained by the neighborhood and there are irrigation lines that run through the garden. I can send you some contact information for someone who can run the irrigation system for the contractor, but otherwise they may not know who to contact about that when they do some construction through there. Okay, that'd be perfect. Thank you. La pregunta era que hay un jardín ahí en la área de la entrada de Blue Lake Drive at Randall Mill Road y quería saber si podía mandarme la información del contractor que hace las líneas de agua ahí para el jardín. And did you write down my email so you can get back to me or do you want me to read it out loud to you? I had the information. Okay, awesome. And we will also have a meeting prior to construction. If y'all have any more questions, please do join at that time. And my contact information is on the screen as well. If anything else comes up that y'all can think of. Okay, if there are no more questions, we'll close the meeting. If you can see the screen, you got a couple more seconds to write down that phone number and Brenda's email address. Thank you very much for your presentation. Thank you for joining. Thank you everybody. We're going to close the meeting and we'll come back and see you guys in a couple of months. Thank you.
