 our tables and our vendors. And so if you have not had the opportunity, you will once we're done. I believe we have transportation public works deal with our roads and streets. And so some of your question that you may have are, why is this street not fixed? Why do we have a pothole here? We have someone that can answer those questions along with myself, who we have representative from the city. We have first convenience bank who is in district eight right there at Walmart. Our friend services to you to make sure that we all are making sure we take care of our finances. And they have a lot more to offer than just a bank service. We have Braver together, who is here representing us tonight. Is a community work presenting 76104. Doing great work. They was with us last year. We have representative Tara with the homeless quarter, our group, our team here at the city. We have our community engagement team having with neighborhood association getting things started. We have a lot of people here. We have the library group here that's with us. You have any questions for them? Parks, the number one man. Yep, there he is. All right, we got opum office, office of monitor. We have cold compliance and we have our water department. So we have a lot of people here to answer the question that you may have some burning question that you may have. But before we get started with answering those questions, I do want to first thank you for coming out tonight on a Thursday. I know we have some meetings on the east side that has happened as well with city staff. And so I first want to always tell you it's an honor and a privilege to have the opportunity to serve you as your council representative. I don't take it lightly. I don't take it for granted. And so also we have our assistant chief here as well representing our city manager. And we also have some ACMs that are here. So thank you for being here. Black Chamber is here. And so take opportunities to thank you for allowing me to represent you. And I believe that if we're gonna get work done, we have forms like this so we can engage on a different setting where you're not having to come down to city hall, we're coming to community. And we talked to you about what we're doing at the city and how we can improve. We always can improve. And so that's what these meetings are for. And so here you probably have already seen this information, but I'm your council representative for district eight. I am a Texas Western board member, Trinity Metro board member. I was just in Kansas city talking about transit. We have a lot of great things we really wanna do to get people moving in the city or forward. And you see all of those. What do I do here? Oh, I think I messed it up. All right, here's what we've been doing. So got elected in 2021, 2022, 2023 each year. This is our third year having our form here. And so one of the things that's very impactful is how we get people moving in forward. How we get rooftops. We talk a lot about grocery stores. We talk a lot about restaurants. We talk about healthy food, healthy eating. One of the most components that make that happen is rooftops. And so here in 2023, we have continued our effort to build, to bring in affordability as well as homes inside of district eight. We know for several years that development had really stopped in district eight. And so it was very important for me and my office to make sure that we kicked that development going. So we have 336 rooftops close to downtown Fort Worth, Overland Properties, 94 rooftops in Riverside, Generated Housing Partners 96 in Crowley Road. Housing Channel is gonna bring 248. Rooftops behind Renaissance and Renaissance Square. Columbia Renaissance also bringing a hundred rooftops. I am going the wrong way. All right, economic development, job creation. If we can't get people two jobs, the next big thing we can do is bring jobs to people. And so while we're working on transit, trying to get people from South Fort Worth all the way to Alliance or get people from Rolling Hills to South Fort Worth, we are trying to bring jobs and bring them inside of district eight. And so we was able to generate in this last cycle, jobs that's gonna be bringing here 787 new jobs, DrinkPak, Siemens and New Coal. DrinkPak is a $232 million investment, 454 time employees, annual salaries at $70,000. I will tell you, every time I talk to people who wanna bring jobs to the city of Fort Worth, the number one thing I tell them, I appreciate everybody having opportunity to all over the city of Fort Worth, but when you hire people and when you bring people in these jobs, $70,000, I need them to have zip codes that live inside of district eight, 76104, 76105, 7612, 76140. I make that a priority. It's because you can bring the jobs, our neighbors, but if we don't get the jobs then we still stay in poverty. And so Siemens is $125 million investment, 167 full time employees at an annual salary of $63,000. They also have a plan in Grand Parry with a union and I'm able to union reps today. We wanna make sure that we can try to unionize this project here as well, but we can only do so much in representation. New code, $300,000 investment, 85 full time employees with an annual salary of $80,000. We really appreciate Robert Stern is also here who does our economic, he's of our economic department. And so this is not Chris Nutter's going out and making all this happen. This is our economic team that's making things happen. They do come to me as for approval. We work with city council. We work with our mayor's office and our management's office to make sure that it meets the qualifications for the city of Fort Worth. So this is a team effort. This is me showing you what we are doing for the residents of Distrigate in the city of Fort Worth. Community development, permanent supportive housing. We talk a lot about how our affordability is at a low level for the city of Fort Worth. And really all over the nation is that we can't find enough housing to deal with our homeless population. We have a serious homeless issue. Now, we will say that it has been decreasing but the more it decreased, the more homeless people we get. And so the best next thing we can do is do permanent supportive housing. And so this has been an effort of our council, an effort of the city council. And so we have journey homes with 72 units, Columbia residential with 25 units and Overland Property Group with eight units to help support people who are homeless to give them permanent supportive housing. We have worked with terror and other groups to make sure that it takes place. Community development also, so this is part of the journey homes off of Crowley Road, 18 duplexes serving 72 individuals. This is kind of a project, if I'm not mistaken, kind of like the one we did in District 2 that has been successful where they have services on site to deal with our homeless population. Columbia residential continued to do the investment there. Riverside, same thing. All right, 36 deeply affordable units. Here recently, I'm really excited about this is a vote that just took place with Justin's Place. It's a great story. Single mothers and children have an opportunity to prevent them from going into homeless. So one, you have preventable housing, which is this, and then you have permanent supportive housing, which is the one we just talked about. All of these, you have affordable housing. All of these takes place or helps our community. And so Justin's Place is gonna do some units. We was able to give them $1.5 million to support their initiative. They also receive money from Terry County to make sure this comes online. And this is the project that they're gonna be bringing. And when I say project, I'm not talking about projects, but this is the project that they're gonna be proposing as Justin's Place. We broke ground on a partnership with Center for Transforming Lives to bring the headquarters of District 8. This building will include small business incubator, financing coaching, counseling, housing programs. This is something we talked about last year. It's the Old Montgomery Wards building. This is one of the votes that I stand on and being proud of when we first got in office. They were gonna turn the Old Montgomery Wards into a U-Haul storage. And I was like, I don't think that's the high and most best use for that area. And so we said on it and we had Transform Lives come and say, we want to take over and make this building. And I don't know, has not been in operator for 10 plus years, and I believe it's much longer. So this is gonna be a great investment for District 8, for the areas surrounding Morningside, Rolling Hills, Southside area, bringing development back to the district so that we can take care of our roads, streets and lights and et cetera. Just right across the street, the Boys and Girls Club opened up a brand new door kitchen. I mean, it's the top of the line. They are able to feed more children now, 3,500 meals a day for our young people who needs meals. When we talk about poverty, we talk about parents who are working day jobs, working night jobs, and they're not able to feed their children because they're not at home. And so programs like this that provides supper meals helps our families, helps our mothers, helps our fathers to raise our children. And so we're excited about the Boys and Girls Club working that new kitchen in. We was able to Goodwill, North Texas, generate with Mark Vecen. I know we had a representative with Mark Vecen's office here. And hopefully once we get to questions, if you have questions, I'd be happy to answer or we'll send them to Congress and Mark Vecen, who's down and watching and fighting for us. Community concerns, we have been having some issues with in our historical South Side area. And I really appreciate assistant chief, assistant chief Julia Swarajan, who's not here. And the chief police, we had some concerns with our, well not a grocery store, it's a convenience store with a lot of foot traffic. And so we was able to get a Sky Tower there to try to mitigate some of those issues. Civilian oversight board, we talked about that. We pushed that last year, it didn't pass. We got a lot of information to try to fix that and get it here. We're excited to announce that we have a new officer, a police monitor now, which is Vanceel. She's also here. So if you have any questions for her, we'd be happy to answer those. But we look forward to having a conversation with her for the community so we can talk about how we're going to deal with our oversight, monitor's office and how it is completely separate from the city of Fort Worth. Those are some of our concerns. Yes, they are hired within the city of Fort Worth, but the office operates independently to make sure that we have oversight when it comes to our police officers. So what do we do in the 2024 budget? Not gonna go through all the budget. We had several, David, I don't know how many budget means that we have at least 10, 12 in the community at City Hall around the city of Fort Worth. And so I hope you took part in the process of the budget. But a couple things we want to highlight that we're excited and proud of, that we was able to implement 106 new police officers compared to last year's 73, police department hope team getting four new officers and our firefighters were increasing those to 76 new staff. This council mayor and has been very vocal on public safety and making sure you're safe in your homes, making sure there's fires, making sure what's ever happened that we're gonna support public safety. And so we're proud that we'll continue to do that in this budget and we'll continue to do that as long as we're in office. Let's see, MWBE contracts. These are some of the things that I had some interest in because I know that when we, when I got elected, there was some issues with minority getting contracts and not so much an issue on the city, but sometimes if we're not focused or we're not intentional, then we miss out on opportunities. So, you know, people who are contractors are working, we have been increasing that number greatly. So from the physical year of 2020, we had at 0.67. Now we're up to 0.58 by the end of 2022. And there's some numbers that's still gonna be coming in. So when it comes to projects, contracts with the city of Fort Worth, we wanna make sure that our black and brown communities contractors are getting some support and getting funds through the city. And so this is our contact. Your representatives, my email up there, Sally Massen is here. And then district eight goes to all of our staff. So if you have any questions or concerns, we ask you to email us and also call us. Our goal is to be vitally accessible to district eight. So you calling and you're not getting a return call, please email, please loop me up. If you send it to district eight, I get it and my entire staff gets it. And so that's the best place to send it to make sure everybody's getting the email. And some call, hit me up on messaging, all those kinds of things. This is the best way to contact us here. And so at this time, those are the things that we've been doing. And I wanted to let the city and let district eight know that we're working for you every single day. You might not see a post on Facebook, you might not see a news article, but these are the things that we're doing every year. This is our town hall that we're doing today. We do this every year around October. We're gonna do another one around the springtime because we wanna be focused. We wanna engage our community. And so we have a lot of representatives that are here today that can talk and answer your questions. So at this time, I think I'm gonna open it up to questions. Is that right? Yes, I'm getting the head shape. Okay, so whatever your burning questions is, we got a hallmark representative here. We're gonna actually, sure. Okay, so, and we also have the volunteer here. So I want her to answer that as well. Anything and all things can improve. One of the things we did know while I'm giving her time to come up is when we went and looked at all our policies, a lot, we have policies in place, sometimes they're not just follow. The other caveat to that is that these policies need to be updated. These policies been implemented years ago and for work it's not the same. And so I'm giving her an opportunity to answer your question and be more methodical. So good evening. Let's welcome her to forward, y'all. My immediate thoughts are our office is smaller and we need to grow and I need to make sure that I have that person in the office to do the work that we're required to do. But I think the last month, probably doing week and three. So anyone who's been involved in the race and culture task force, any community members I can get in contact with, I've been having lunches and coffee. And what I've learned is a lot of people didn't know the work we were actually doing. So a lot of people didn't know you can actually come to our office and file an internal complaint. And that would be investigated. A lot of people didn't know we monitor critical incidents and you so forth. So right now, the big thing that our office can do is educate the community of the resource you have been put on. So internally we're going to be reviewing policies, making recommendations, our audience with the chief, all those things of what I need is make sure that I have them formed and educated public. So when you see something, you know that you can come to our office and actually say something. Any other questions? Well, I'm standing here. All right. Well, I look forward to working with everyone. I can't help but give a call. Thank you. Any other questions? Let me get them. I got you next, Johnny. If you can't run this case by yourself. So in terms of boards and commissions, who have you appointed to what board and commissions and what board and commission appointments are coming up and we can think about it? Okay. And while I'm coming up with that setup, do you have any thoughts on that? Let me know. One of the things we did do, because I believe that it was important that we just then completely devolish what we had in place. And so my predecessor had elected and selected a lot of board members. Most of those board members we kept on to make sure it was a smooth transition. We have board members that are here tonight that represents on our parks. And we have an ex board member that works in on our residential boards and adjustments. And so I can get you the list of each names. I think we have a total of 10, 11 board. We recently have brought Tisa Leggan on to represent on our zoning commission. And I don't think we have any new ones within the last year, but I can actually provide that list of each name and representative for the boards. And we don't have any vacancies at the moment. I think that's the mayor's appointment, but I can always make a recommendation. If you're interested in serving, if you will send me an email, I will forward that over as a recommendation. And I think it's important that, I don't know if we can figure out where those lists are so they can go onto the website. I don't know if anybody here can help us with that. But there's an opportunity where you can go on and you can actually apply for each of these boards. And then it is sent out to all of the council for recommendations. John, you get a question. Yeah, my question deals with transportation. All the jobs that you mentioned, they usually come in with all the top paying jobs. When they come in there, they already got an aid. Okay, now and the other thing is transportation to these jobs sites. They're full of facts of, we're having the transportation system. How do you, is there someone working that looked at the transportation? There's no way somebody living in District 8 are difficult to get to those jobs sites, to apply for those jobs. And second thing, how are you dealing with a lot of people who are coming in, out of who are ex-offenders, who are also looking for jobs and trying to, is there anyone working on that far? So we actually work- Transportation and also, that was also talking about educate the poor guys deep and partnership with them. So when these kids get out of school, they already, they can move into it. Okay, so it's about five things that you just talked about. I'm sorry, I get up at three o'clock in the morning thinking about this stuff. I don't get up at three o'clock in the morning, but I, so we talk about transportation, to actually get people, so you talk like a bus system to get people to, that the thing about it is that we have a bus system, I sit on Trinity Metro Board now, and the stigma of riding the bus is so low. People think if they ride the bus, that they are in poverty or broke or whatever it is, and people just don't ride the bus. And so what Trinity Metro has done is they have given service to where the ridership is the greatest. And so if you're on Lancaster, you having buses come up and down Lancaster every 10 minutes on the stops, because that's where the most riders are. Now, there are more stops that we can create, but that's at the Trinity Metro Boards and Commissions. And so I'll be happy to introduce you to people who create those stops last stop now, and I'll sit with you and see how we can increase that for these jobs, because you are correct that if you're in East Fort Worth and Southside, it's gonna be hard for you to get to Everton Parkway and Oak Grove. It's several buses you have to catch to get there. So that's not necessarily a city of Fort Worth issue, but it is an issue for Fort Worth, because we gotta make sure we get people around. Thank you, Mitch. So we work with first, what is it called, Sally? First stop reentry, which offers out a circle drive. We actually did a job recruiting for ex-offenders. We did one with United Black Contractors just last month trying to get people lined up with jobs. They actually have another one that's coming up in November. I'll get that to you. That's coming up in November for ex-offenders. And so there is opportunities out there. We'll put that on our social media, our website. And while I'm talking about that, if you have not registered to receive email or emails from the city of Fort Worth, you need to do that immediately. What you can do when you go on there to register, you can register for city news and you can register for district eight news and each district. And so every time we are doing something as a community, it goes and it's automatic sent to you. So like today we sent out, I think 12,000 emails, 12,000 emails to people to tell them about tonight. So yesterday we sent it tonight. And so if you're on the email blast, if you need to update, you can get information like that. Evan's Avenue? What about it? Evan's and Rosedale? Okay. So Evan's and Rosedale is one of the projects that we have been excited about for a while to come online. And I would tell you, David would tell you that this is something that they've been working on way long before my tenure. One of the things that's taken place is with Hope Global, I don't think they're here tonight. They have requested an extension through January and February to finalize the deal of the purchase of the land to, and the mayor and I met with them along with staff and we agreed to give them that extension to finish the work that they're doing. So that's where we are. It's upon them to finalize work with DJ Harrell, which is in our development service to get permittings and plans finalized and done. Now, I know you had the question about changing plans. They're not changing. They can't change it. Then we already approve what we're gonna approve, but they have to actually submit those plans to the city of Fort Worth for a final approval for them to move forward. So before they change plans, do some a bunch of high rises or it looks like- They can't change that part. They can't change. No, we want to approve it. We all haven't approved it yet. So what we have, so they get it this way. They have to actually submit for permitting. We have as a community, you guys have already said what you wanted and they have sent you, I think they have showed you the renderings. Those renderings are the same. They're not, if they change those renderings, they have to come back to the community. So it's not gonna go up six or down one. It's gonna stay the exact same as you were shown the last time in your meetings. But they have to submit to the city of Fort Worth to actually get a official permit in order to do the work. You got a question in the back? Sure. It's the average income. So if it's 100 jobs, average out of 100, they're gonna be making that amount. Code, we are aware of that part. And one of the things that we do have is the My Fort Worth app. And it allows you to actually take a picture and report an address right at that moment and it automatically sent to the appropriate departments to start getting that fixed. And so I encourage everyone to do that. Then you also can take the snap picture, email my office. It's something that's done automatically. Once we get that, and what we have done in the process just to kind of give you some context, when we, I see you that hand, David, when we have done that salad or anyone in my office, we will start working on getting a solution. And we will respond to you back once we have received a solution. So sometimes what we'll do is say, thank you for your email, we're working on it. We'll get back with you on a solution and we're working offhand in order to make that happen for you. Okay, David? Yeah, the homeless problem used to be singularly located on Lancaster. I will tell you there isn't a neighborhood in Fort Worth that isn't experiencing camps. That anywhere there's a nook granny, you know, anything, any type of growth, the trees and stuff, we got the homeless because they realized that they can hand handle in this neighborhood or that neighborhood, right? On different intersections and raise money. So we have it throughout the city. Use that app to be our idea. That will get you the quickest response on homeless camps. So what happens is when you put it in there, you get a work order through the school and it comes with buying it at the same time. So when we often come in in the morning or if they're on duty, when you send it, that's one of the things that they get a work order for right away. That is the fastest, cleanest way to do it. In your particular, in your regular work, I am familiar with your neighborhood, right? Yeah, I think your neighborhood meeting, I think it's right. Yeah, I will tell you, it's just a matter of, it's a sequence issue, right? Where they can only get to so many things in a day and sometimes it takes them an extra day or two to get to that, and that's where it helps. I will tell you, when you use that app, it prioritizes code compliance. We're gonna address those things that come into us from all of you before we address other things that the officer may come across the day. In your neighborhood, I've got a co-ranger. And would you have a co-ranger program? And I'll tell you, it's primarily made up of people that also do the code blue with the police department, so both police and code have citizen volunteers that can help keep the neighborhood safe from the police department. They do a crime prevention function where they report the eviction activity and look for hazards and things like that. At the same time, if there's a code violation, that they can help us. And this way they do it is, is a notice goes out to a violator from the code ranger, tell them the city that the code ranger initiates it. That frees up a code enforcement officer to work on higher priority calls, like the homeless camps and things like that. So at the end, we'll do the token blinds table so we can tell you how to get involved in that or how to utilize the app and things like that. Yeah, okay, go ahead, I can it. Wait, Dave. Yeah, yes, both, you reported. And so, and what, and I don't know if you have something you wanna add to. Okay. There are repeated drug offenses and there's reports that we need to make or the citizens need to make that needs to be on file before we can start the nuisance evasion process. So what I would encourage you is, if there is a problem property, just contact us through the MPO program if you don't get your MPO, let me know. But it takes the first step and just let identifying where the property is and then we can tell you what the needs are for us to get a formal defense. Violent crime is definitely one of them, drug usage. So part of it is that that property owner allows this activity to happen. So they don't have any preventative measures that prevent that stuff from happening. Like if, you know, he knows that they're selling drugs out of the parking lot or they're selling drugs from within the business itself and he does nothing to prevent it, well that would fall into a nuisance evasion category. So it is no different for things that are going out on outside in this parking lot. Karen, you had a question. It really took you back in the office, well, back in a little bit. So what we do, we work actually alongside a lot of the neighborhood associations in our work to make sure that we're bringing along that revitalization in the way that the community wants to see that happen. And in those neighborhood associations that I'm a part of, I listened to the co-team coming and talking about how they're addressing some of the pains in the community. And one of the things that I wanted to kind of ask is if it's possible to report back. So when the neighborhood associations and the residents, the neighbors are reporting cases, right? If it's caught hard or someone else, homelessness or whatever, is it possible to have a report so that the act that you're referring to, once that is entered, can your team bring back to the neighborhood associations, right? Here's a report of all of the cases or incidents that you reported, right? And here's how it's addressed, or is it still in progress if they're closed? So that way the community can see exactly how your team is executing or what the gaps still are and what they need to do as a community to be supportive and working in collaboration with the code. The answer is absolutely yes. So one of the cool things about Fort Worth is that the neighborhood police officers and the code enforcement officers work the same patrol means. And we do this because there's a correlation between crime and crime. So just like an MBO would bring to a neighborhood meeting, here's the crime statistics for the area. We can work on getting the code officers to bring you updates on the code cases. We just implemented a new software application, right? So that's been probably part of the reason why that the old system was not as robust as the new system. So that may have led to some of this. And then also, for those people, you don't necessarily have to wait for that meeting that the city has a tool for the main webpage and it's one address. And if you type in the address or the violation, it'll not only tell you what the code activity has been there in the past, what's current, it'll tell you past crimes that were in the area, it will tell you past building permits. I mean, there's all kinds of information on addresses there that you can use. But absolutely come see us afterwards. I'm all for that. The cool thing about the app is, when you use it, is you can still do it somewhat anonymously and then when you make the complaint on your phone, you can track it back easily. I'll tell you for code compliance, if you leave contact information, an email address, a name and a phone number, something like that, 99 times out of 100, my staff will call you back and give you updates at different milestones. If you happen to be unlucky and have that one time out of 100 where we don't, you can call me personally and I'll fix that because I think it's important to bring feedback to you. When you bring us something that's important to you, we should be reaching back to you and saying this is what we did with it. So I'm with you on that. I'm Jordan. Thank you. Just to bring a thank you to your team, a couple things that every industry seems to be a location of severe homelessness. So just want to put that, that's the former Brooks Farmerson, so want to put that on the radar continually. And unfortunately, 24-1 Scott Aberdeen, unfortunate death of a homeless person a couple weeks ago. And so the concern is making sure the brush to find a solution to help support the code enforcement team, know you understand, get that. However, where there's a lot of brush, that's where it cancels are. So Beach and I are 30. I think text out if somebody came and cleared the brush, so homeless was reduced. So where there's an opportunity to clear brush because that's where homeless encampments are. Secondly, how can let property owners post no trespassing since that becomes more of an urgency to come out versus not posting that if the property owner posts says no trespassing, can that help support your team random to make sure that that's if somebody reads it, if a homeless person, anybody that they know that there will be a fine. So just wanna ask how do we help you because the challenge of development that council was trying to do homelessness creates a barrier, an impediment to create good development because we're having challenges in places that have been there for a long time like 2200 every day. So how do we help you? So I wholeheartedly agree with what Andre said, that we know that having homeless camps, it impacts your safety, your quality of life development. There's no argument to that. So we do a number of things. One is that if it's city property or city right away or state, like what we did with the state and we have repetitive camps, we'll actually go in, we'll work with the parks department. If they're trees, we'll work with community service workers, if it's brush and we'll clean that out. We use crime prevention through environmental design. We borrow that from the police department because we know if we have natural surveillance or have good sight lines where they can't hide, then they're less likely to come back, right? If it's on private property, we can't just enter onto a property and trim it. But one of the cool things we do in Fort Worth is we can work with private property owners because it's expensive for them to clean up camps. If they'll bring the stuff to the curb, we'll haul it off for free. And then if they'll trim up their brush and put it at the curb, we'll haul that off for free. And it's not really free because really at the end of the day they're saving you the taxpayer money because if they clean up their property that way, we're not having to send police and fire and code back out over and over again on the camp. So it's a complicated process, but most certainly, you know, part of it is feedback to us to say, I reported this over and over and over again. I know that that seems redundant. Remember, there's lots of different code officers and police officers and sometimes it's different people that have responded to different complaints and it doesn't always add up right away. So your feedback is important. We got a couple of them. Hold on, yeah. You got a question? What Tarquin State just had is a general consent decree Congress, would you agree with the Justice Department that there is enough circumstantial and real evidence to warrant a justice investigation into the police department and possibly place them under the consent decree? Very close. What I'll say is that I was intended for the Consent Decree Conference and I'm coming to Fort Worth from the Oil and Police Department that is under a Consent Decree. What I'll say, this time for what I know and I'm only gonna speak on what I actually know at this point in time, I can't say that the Department of Justice would come in and impose a Consent Decree on Fort Worth Police Department. What I'll say is my goal is to do the work that I'm permitted to do and allow to do what this community wants to see me to do to hopefully prevent that from having to happen. Just to say that they all have been trying to come in to do a congressional investigation. Understood. So we got about a few more minutes for questions. So we have an opportunity to allow you to meet with the members again before we leave out. About calling the police and the police response time being very slow. I recently heard that the police station on Mold Street, which is South Division, was moving to Burleson. Is that true one and two? What is that going to do to the response time? Yeah, you do much good. Okay. The response times, let's talk about that first. Response times, every call that comes through the communication center, it's prioritized. So a life and death situation is priority one, and it kind of goes down from there. Somebody being assaulted can be a priority one depending on the circumstances and then you have lower level offenses. So depending on what was reported and I don't know the specifics, I would have to figure out why it took so long for them to respond. So some of the other issues were in our communication center because we were having problems with staffing, but because of the council member, our city leadership, we've increased the staffing in our communication center to be able to take those calls a little bit more efficiently and effectively. So to answer your, we're moving to Burleson. No, we're not moving to Burleson, but we are moving down south. So it is going to be on McPherson road and McCart McPherson because we had, it's South division was divided into two divisions. So one was on both streets. The other one was at 7451 McCart, which is literally a few blocks away from where the new subdivision is. So the whole hope was to get all the patrol officers in one division and in one building because it's easier whenever you have the collaboration between all the patrol officers instead of being split up. So to answer your question, is it going to impact the response times? No, because they're still going to be, they're still going to be out in the community. They're still assigned to patrol beats. And so all they're changing is the location of where they report. They're not changing, you know, how they deploy and how they actually answer calls for service. Okay, on response times, I think it's been like accidents when someone has an accident they call a police and it takes forever for them to show up. And a lot of that depends on the injuries, location, if it's blocking. I mean, there are a lot of factors that kind of go into that to how they prioritize those calls. But I mean, if there's one specific, I would love to research it for you and then get you the answer. Okay, thank you. Holy substation in our area, we're in Heiden Hills area. There's some vacant buildings on the end. It's a possible, how can we get a police substation? We see officers sitting in doing their paperwork, we haven't been doing their paperwork or something. So how can we get a substation in our neighborhood? So I think what you're referring to is a storefront. A substation for us is an actual police headquarters facility, like what you see over here at 1,100 Nashville. But storefronts, basically, those are buildings or locations that the property owner donates to us or we pay $1 a year. And so the cost is almost nothing to the city, but yet they allow us to occupy those locations because they like our police presence or there's other reasons why they would like us on those properties. So really, it's kind of connecting with those business owners to see if they would like that. And then that way we can determine if that's a good place for them to be. I believe Highland Hills is a good place to be. So, yeah. Thank you. Also, I would like to comment on the, my Fort Worth app is a superb app. It is one of the best in the code-compliant policies. But it's a great app, I've always, I always get the response quickly, so I appreciate that. All right. One or two more, anybody? Yes. LaShonda, I got you next. Is that the one here in the city of Fort Worth? No. So is it an APOP? Is the home zone as an A5 residential home, or is it zone? They not check the zoning of the home itself, but it's in our residential, on our street. Okay. In residential homes. Single family homes. So they can have apartment A, apartment B. It's gonna be determined on what is zone, is that correct? Yeah, so if you come see us after the meeting today, and I'll tell you, for all of you, sometimes people convert property, unlawfully, right? And you live in the neighborhood, you know what's going on. And so that's where we encourage you to call the Code enforcement officer for your area. We can't call him. Like tonight, talk to Tony Hiller, the one with the white hair. Yeah, we also need to call him. Right? And let's look and see what's going on with the property for everybody to understand that when we deal with these type of code violations, that they don't generally get fixed overnight, that it's generally the process of law. In Texas, we are a very strong property rights state, and we have to work through putting a case together, taking it to court, scheduling an appearance before court. There's all these things that we have to do. And so I would encourage you tonight to talk to Tony, and he can tell you where we are in that process. Okay. Absolutely, we don't want, we don't want houses turned into the quasi-invoting homes illegally. That's not what we want. We want you to help us be the eyes and ears of the state with code. Yes, sir. It's the crime of the bond, the bond that's in the street repair. We've been hoping, I can show you the streets that 50 years in Africa have been repaired. We've sent a list to you, we've sent it to the city attorney, and you want to know what do we need to find out? If any of these streets are off the street repair, the same streets, the same house, the same thing that needs to be repaired. And it's just, I mean, counting on it, it's just getting really frustrating, not just for me, but for other people. When you're talking about having a new home built, you've got all your houses being built, but on the northern end of our community, you know, you're gonna do that as well as they do. But I'm sure that you must be there well, and I've been there. And so, does that's one thing that you asked about? What do you feel about getting streets on the south side of Africa? We've sent a list of streets and we did work. So the city came to say, well, we didn't cover it. And the other thing is on the life. We've sent a list, we've done a work on the life, we even had to get it and get it to work on the life. About it, they can update those bugs, they know it. When is the last time you've done the life? Because we have started a new program. I can't hear you. When is the last time you've done the life? Okay, it's been about two or three months ago. We don't know if they had liked it. And also, the other issue we brought up was saying, as far as the need to go out and trim, trim the trim around those things, because the problem is gathering it, that needs also to go even go down certain streets. Because they said, no, I'm not there for a job and I'm not, because it's too long time. And how long do we want to do that, that's what I'm doing. Let's ask those two questions for you. I just wanted to say something real quick and through the list, we definitely did get the list of streets. It came a little bit after the 22 bond election, but I promise it was sent to TPW staff for evaluating it for the next bond election, I think it's 2026. Okay, did we send it real quick? My name is Julie Swight. I'm the senior capital projects officer of transportation management, and I manage the street lights and traffic signals and signs. I heard you mentioned that you guys have done something in the community with the lights. If you want to come talk to me afterwards when we finish up, I can try to work with you to see about what's the issue that's going on over there. Yeah, I don't want to throw you on the bus. The problem is, this is the same problem and we got it, Johnny, we got it. All right, if you do have a list of streets, and I don't know if y'all can talk real quick, because there's two different types of repairs that we do. Transportation, public work, capital delivery. So if you have about three, depends on the type of, like what type of repair, it is something we can do with maintenance, with every year maintenance budget, we can do it, but if it's beyond maintenance, the way you're describing it, seems like it's beyond maintenance, so it's new from D3 construction, that will need to be what ends along. So we are actually working, we just started working now to repair for the 2026. So it takes us a long time to get the list, so if you get us late 2021 or early 2022, it was too late for us to include it in the 2022 long. We're working now for 2026, so come talk to us and give me the list. We're actually working on that right now. Do we have a deadline for those streets to be? For 2026? We still have a year and a half to combine all the lists before it goes to like the Councilor Gruber, and then we'll go to the public meeting, and then like in 2026, May 2026, will be the vote. So we still have a year and a half working on this list. Okay, and as we talked about like potholes and stuff that, that goes on the pay go. Yeah, if there's something small we can't see, if it can be repaired or maybe filled up, go ahead and repair it. If you take a picture, it's a lot full, if you put a picture with the F, they will repair it in 24, 48 hours a night. Okay. Yeah, it's only about four. Okay, we have to stop so we can make sure we get out on time. But again, I want to thank everybody for coming out. Thank you for your question. Your questions don't stop today. Please continue. And again, there's people just like any other business. Employees come, employees leave, people have emails, people delete emails. If you send stuff, resend that stuff back to us. So keep us on our piece and accuse that, hey, I sent this on this day, I'm returning it, another email, make sure you get it, so that we all can be coherent together. So thank all of our city staff for coming out. Thank you. And so we at Southside Community Garden has made it, so please visit her. Well, tell them to come visit your table. Don't visit, treat y'all. All right, this ain't sure, so there's no benediction. You guys dismissed, thank y'all for coming out tonight. All right, thank you.
