          THE FIRST SPEAKER IS PECK, UH, COMMISSIONERS. 
          UH, IT'S A PLEASURE TO BE WITH YOU, ESPECIALLY ON THIS AUSPICIOUS EVENING. 
          I HAVE TWO THINGS TO SAY ONE, UH, ON BEHALF OF THE, UH, NAACP, HISPANIC COALITION, OTHER AS A PERSONAL THING, ONE, I HAVE SEEN THE LIST OF ITEMS THAT YOU INTEND TO CONSIDER, UH, THAT HAS BEEN PUBLISHED AND DISTRIBUTED. 
          WE APPRECIATE THE FACT THAT THE TWO ITEMS THAT WE HAVE REQUESTED FOR CONSIDERATION ARE ON THAT LIST. 
          AND WE THANK YOU FOR THAT. 
          UH, NUMBER TWO, I WANT TO SIMPLY SAY THAT I'VE BEEN WITH Y'ALL, UH, THROUGH, UH, EVERY MEETING YOU PALED. 
          AND I WANT TO EXPRESS MY APPRECIATION FOR THE HARD WORK THAT THIS COMMISSION HAS DONE EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU. 
          I WAS INVOLVED WITH THE FIRST COMMISSION AND I CAN MAKE A COMPARISON AND I DON'T THINK THEY WORKED ANY HARDER OR ANY MORE COMPETENTLY THAN THIS ONE. 
          UH, AND THEY HAD BETTER CIRCUMSTANCES. 
          THEY HAD DATA IN, UH, APRIL, UH, NOT IN AUGUST. 
          UH, THEY DID NOT HAVE COVID TO DEAL WITH. 
          UH, AND I THINK YOU ALL HAVE DEALT WITH BOTH OF THOSE PROBLEMS ADMIRABLY, AND I'VE COME UP WITH A TIMELINE AND A WORK SCHEDULE THAT IS GETTING YOU TO THE SAME PLACE THEY GOT TO UNDER MY VERY ADVERSE CIRCUMSTANCES. 
          AND I WANT TO EXPRESS MY ADMIRATION AND APPRECIATION FOR THE HARD WORK YOU DID. 
          AND ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS? THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 
          THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 
          THE NEXT SPEAKER IS FRED LEWIS POWERPOINT. 
          GOOD EVENING. 
          I WANT TO REITERATE EVERYTHING THAT PECK YARD SAID. 
          SOMEONE HELPED DRAFT THIS CHARTER. 
          I WANT TO TELL YOU, WE 
          [00:05:01]
KNEW IT WAS GOING TO BE LONG, HARD, AND ARDUOUS WORK, RATHER THANKLESS TASK, BUT IT IS IMPORTANT. 
          UH, VERY IMPORTANT, UH, THAT PEOPLE'S DISTRICTS ARE DRAWN FAIRLY TO PROTECT MINORITIES, COMMUNITIES OF INTEREST, AND IT DONE WITHOUT FAVOR OR CONSIDERATION TO POLITICAL GROUPS THINK HOW MUCH BETTER OUR STATE AND THE COUNTRY WOULD BE IF WE DID SOMETHING SIMILARLY IN THAT REGARD, BUT I'M HERE. 
          I WANTED TO CLEAR UP SOME STUFF, UH, ABOUT HOW TO CONSIDER NEIGHBORHOODS AND LOCAL COMMUNITIES OF INTEREST. 
          FROM MY PERSPECTIVE, AS YOU KNOW, THE CRITERIA IS VERY SPECIFIC ON WHAT YOU CAN CONSIDER IN DRAWING THE LINES. 
          AND THAT'S BECAUSE IF YOU GO DOWN TO THE TEXAS LEGISLATURE, THEY CONSIDER INNUMERABLE THINGS, MANY OF WHICH WE WISH THEY WOULDN'T. 
          UH, BUT THE FIRST TWO CRITERIA, AS YOU KNOW, AND MR. JOHN HAS TALKED TO YOU IS TO PROTECT THE REPRESENTATION OF HISTORICAL MINORITIES. 
          UH, AND AS BEST I KNOW Y'ALL HAVE DONE A GOOD JOB WITH THAT. 
          UH, AND MR. YOUNG HAS KEPT ME UP TO SPEED ON THAT. 
          UM, THOSE PRIORITIES HAVE TO BE CONSIDERED IN THE ORDER IN WHICH THEY'RE LAID OUT. 
          THE THIRD ONE IS CONTIGUOUSNESS AND I DON'T THINK THAT'S BEEN AN ISSUE, BUT THERE'S THE FOURTH PRIORITY AND IT IS FOURTH. 
          UH, AND THAT IS THE GEOGRAPHIC INTEGRITY OF NEIGHBORHOODS OR LOCAL COMMUNITIES OF INTEREST. 
          AND I DO UNDERSTAND THAT SOME NEIGHBORHOODS HAVE NOT EXACTLY UNDERSTOOD WHY THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD INTERESTS CAME BEHIND THOSE OF HISTORICAL MINORITIES, BUT THAT'S BECAUSE IT'S IN THE CHARTER. 
          BUT IF YOU'D GO TO THE, THERE IT IS. 
          UH, THE REASON IT TALKS ABOUT THE GEOGRAPHIC INTEGRITY OF A LOCAL NEIGHBORHOOD IS BECAUSE NEIGHBORHOODS HAVE COMMON INTERESTS. 
          GENERALLY SPEAKING, THEY'RE OFTEN FOUNDED AND BUILT AROUND THE SAME TIME AND THEY HAVE TRANSPORTATION NEEDS, INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDS, FLOODING, MITIGATION NEEDS, DEVELOPMENT ISSUES, TAX ISSUES, OTHER THINGS. 
          NOW LET'S BE CLEAR THAT DOESN'T MEAN EVERYBODY IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD AGREES, UH, SHORTLY IN TRUE IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          I DOUBT IT IS IN YOURS, BUT THERE ARE PROBABLY COMMON PROBLEMS AND CONCERNS THAT AFFECT A NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          AND THE THIRD ONE, IF WE COULD GO THROUGH IT, UH, THE THIRD SLIDE, UH, THIS COMES FROM CALIFORNIA'S COMMISSION, INDEPENDENT REDISTRICTING COMMISSION, WHICH WAS THE BASIS FOR OURS. 
          AND IT GIVES IT ACTUALLY LAYS OUT IN THE CONSTITUTION, CALIFORNIA. 
          SOME EXAMPLES OF SHARED INTERESTS, WHICH FOLLOW ALONG WITH WHAT I WAS TELLING YOU. 
          SO THE POINT IS THAT THE INTEREST OF NEIGHBORHOODS ARE SOMETHING THAT Y'ALL NEED TO CONSIDER. 
          A NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION IS JUST A GROUP OF PEOPLE FROM A NEIGHBORHOOD, AND THEY GENERALLY FALL ALONG THE LINES AND BOUNDARIES OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD AT TIMES. 
          BUT I'LL GIVE YOU TWO MORE MINUTES. 
          IT'S VERY CONNIE, I'M SLOW TO, UH, NOW LET ME BE REAL CLEAR. 
          I UNDERSTAND PEOPLE HAVE DIFFERENT VIEWS AND THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS, CIVIC ORGANIZATIONS, BUT THIS CHARTER IS PRETTY CLEAR THAT YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO FOLLOW THE GEOGRAPHIC INTEGRITY OF NEIGHBORHOODS. 
          AND THOSE GENERALLY OVERLAP WITH THOSE OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION. 
          UM, AND SO WHAT I WANT TO SAY IS, WHICH IS THE LAST SLIDE IS POLITICS. 
          AND WHETHER SOMEONE LIKES PARTICULAR GROUP OR LIKES NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE CONSIDERED, OKAY, THAT'S NOT THE ISSUE. 
          THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT OF THIS. 
          IT ISN'T ABOUT POLITICS. 
          IT'S SPECIFIC CRITERIA, HISTORICAL MINORITIES CONTIGUOUSNESS AND THE PROTECTION OF THE GEOGRAPHIC AND CHARACTER OF NEIGHBORHOODS. 
          AND SO I WOULD URGE YOU TO FOLLOW THE CRITERIA. 
          AND THEN ONE LAST THING I WANT TO SAY, BECAUSE THIS HAS BEEN MISUNDERSTOOD. 
          I THINK A LOT OF FOLKS, I AM FAIRLY REPRESENTED, WHICH IS WHAT IS REQUIRED WHEN I VOTE FOR COUNTY-WIDE PEOPLE IN TRAVIS COUNTY, THE DISTRICT ISN'T GERRYMANDERED, IT'S JUST THE LINES I VOTE IN THE PRIMARIES. 
          AND A LOT OF PEOPLE I DON'T LIKE WHEN THAT DOES NOT MEAN I'M NOT BARELY REPRESENTED. 
          IT JUST MEANS THAT MY VIEW DID NOT PREVAIL. 
          UH, AND SO I URGE YOU TO FOLLOW THE REQUIREMENT, THE FOURTH PRIORITY REQUIREMENT, UH, AND PROTECT THE INTERESTS, THE LOCAL 
          [00:10:01]
COMMUNITY INTEREST OF NEIGHBORS. 
          ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS? THANK YOU. 
          THE NEXT SPEAKER IS MARY GOOD EVENING COMMISSIONERS. 
          I'M MARY INGLE, AND I'M HERE AS A NEIGHBORHOOD ADVOCATE. 
          AND I'M ALSO HERE TO TALK ABOUT NEIGHBORHOODS AND ALSO THE AUSTIN NEIGHBORHOODS COUNCIL. 
          I REALLY BELIEVE THAT NEIGHBORHOODS HAVE A PLACE AND THE ICRC PROCESS FOR DETERMINING DISTRICTS BECAUSE WE DO HAVE SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC INTERESTS. 
          MANY NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS WERE FORMED IN DIFFERENT AREAS OF TOWN, SOMETIMES COORDINATING WITH THE ORIGINAL HOUSING. 
          SOME NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS WERE FORMED BECAUSE THEIR HOUSES WERE DISAPPEARING. 
          IN CERTAIN TIMES DURING THE CITY'S GROWTH. 
          OTHER NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS WERE FORMED TO FOCUS ON SAFETY AND OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST LIKE DEVELOPMENT PATTERNS, MISSING AMENITIES, LIKE GROCERY STORES, INFRASTRUCTURE LIKE DRAINAGE AND FLOODING. 
          UM, MOST OF OUR URBAN CORE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS ARE CODIFIED WITH BOUNDARIES AND IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD PLANNING PROCESS. 
          SO WE ARE LEGITIMATE ENTITIES, THE AUSTIN NEIGHBORHOODS COUNCIL FOR WHICH I WAS A PRECEDENT FOR FOUR LONG SUFFERING YEARS, AND I'M STILL ALIVE, UH, WAS FORMED IN 1973. 
          AND IT WAS AN UMBRELLA GROUP FOR NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS. 
          IT'S FOUNDER, JOANNE BARTS, AND SHE MAY REST IN PEACE. 
          NOW DID PARTICIPATE IN THE FIRST ROUND OF REDISTRICTING OF THE REDISTRICTING PANEL IN 2011. 
          SHE RECOGNIZED EARLY IN THE 1970S THAT THERE WAS A NEED FOR A GROUP OF FORUMS FOR NEIGHBORHOODS AND FOR MEETINGS TO DISCUSS NEIGHBORHOOD PROBLEMS AND ISSUES OF SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC INTERESTS. 
          AND TO EDUCATE PEOPLE. 
          I, I CONSIDER THE LIFESPAN OF ANC AUSTIN NEIGHBORHOODS, COUNCIL 48 YEARS, A VERY LONG STANDING KIND OF, UM, UH, UM, IT'S A LONGSTANDING, UM, SORRY, I'M A LOSS FOR WORDS RIGHT NOW. 
          IT'S A LONGSTANDING, UH, IT IS LONGSTANDING. 
          NEVERMIND. 
          SO, AND IN CLOSING, I JUST WANT TO URGE YOU TO CONSIDER AFTER YOU'VE CONSIDERED THE LANGUAGE OF THE CHARTER FOR THE OTHER THREE ITEMS, THE IMPORTANCE OF LONGSTANDING ORGANIZATIONS LIKE NEIGHBORHOODS. 
          THANK YOU. 
          THANK YOU, MS. HENKEL, THE NEXT SPEAKER IS JUSTIN IRVING. 
          I THINK YOU CAN COMMISSIONERS FOR HAVING ME OUT TONIGHT. 
          UM, I WANTED TO, AGAIN, VOICE MY, UH, SUPPORT FOR ALL THE WORK THAT YOU'RE DOING AND THE AMAZING JOB. 
          I COULDN'T AGREE MORE WITH WHAT PECK, UH, PECK'S ASSESSMENT OF YOUR WORK. 
          AND, UM, UM, YOU GIVE ME A LOT TO BELIEVE IN WHEN IT COMES TO, UH, YOU KNOW, THE FUTURE OF POLITICS AND, AND THE COUNTRY. 
          I REALLY HOPE THAT THESE EFFORTS AMPLIFY OUT PAST THE AUSTIN, TEXAS. 
          SO I'VE COME TO YOU TONIGHT TO TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT NEIGHBORHOODS AGAIN, AND TO MAYBE OFFER SOME OF MY OWN PERSONAL EXPERIENCE AND HOW I JOINED COMMUNITY IN AUSTIN. 
          UM, AUSTIN CAN BE A DIFFICULT PLACE TO FIND YOURSELF IN AS A YOUNG PERSON WHO HAS MOVED HERE. 
          UM, I MOVED HERE JUST TO ATTEND COLLEGE AND DECIDED TO STAY, BUT DIDN'T REALLY HAVE THE COMMUNITY OUTSIDE THE UNIVERSITY TO PARTICIPATE IN. 
          I ENDED UP IN A NEIGHBORHOOD THAT, UM, WAS ACTIVE AND ENGAGING IN CIVICS AND HAD A LOT OF DISAGREEMENT ACTUALLY WITH THEIR, THE WAY THAT THEY PROCEEDED, UM, WHICH PROMPTED ME TO SHOW UP, WHICH PROMPTED ME TO JOIN IN THE CONVERSATION AND WHICH PROMPTED ME TO TAKE, UM, 
          [00:15:01]
AN ACTIVE HAND IN SHAPING THE, THE WAY THAT THE COMMUNITY SAW ITSELF AND THE WAY THE COMMUNITY SAW ITS NEIGHBORS. 
          UM, I WAS A RENTER AT THE TIME. 
          UH, I WASN'T SURE IF I WAS GOING TO FIND AN OPEN SET OF, UM, RECEIVING HANDS TO THAT BECAUSE IT WASN'T NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION THAT I JOINED, BUT TO MY SURPRISE, THAT WAS NOT, UM, NOT, NOT ONLY A, UH, YOU KNOW, IT WAS SOMETHING THAT THEY THOUGHT WASN'T A GOOD ADDITION TO THEIR PERSPECTIVE SET. 
          AND EVENTUALLY I ENDED UP STAYING IN THAT COMMUNITY HAS A HOMEOWNER, MOSTLY BASED ON THE EXPERIENCE THAT I HAD WITH, WITH THAT GROUP OF PEOPLE. 
          AND I WANT TO DO A VOICE, UM, YOU KNOW, ECHO BACK, MANY OF THE COMMENTS THAT, UM, FRED AND MARY HAD THAT THAT'S WHAT MAKES A COMMUNITY IS THAT INTERACTION OF PEOPLE. 
          UM, WHEN WE'RE TALKING ABOUT CULTURAL CONTIGUOUSNESS AND GEOGRAPHIC CONTIGUOUSNESS, I BELIEVE THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT. 
          PEOPLE WITH WITH INTERESTS THAT, YOU KNOW, SOMETIMES DIVERGE, BUT SOMETIMES ALIGN, BUT HAVE EACH OTHER TO, TO VOICE THOSE OPINIONS AND SHAPE THE POLICY OF THEIR NEIGHBORS. 
          UM, I AGREE. 
          WE DON'T ALWAYS AGREE. 
          I DIDN'T COME INTO THAT COMMUNITY WITH A MINDSET TO AGREE, ACTUALLY. 
          UM, BUT THROUGH OPEN PROCESS AND TRANSPARENCY AND, UM, GOODWILL ULTIMATELY CAME AROUND TO A VERY DIFFERENT SET ALMOST 15 YEARS LATER, I'M HERE BEFORE YOU REPRESENTING THE AUSTIN NEIGHBORHOODS COUNCIL AS ITS PRECEDENT. 
          UM, THANK YOU, MR. IRVING, THOSE ARE ALL THE SPEAKERS WE HAVE THAT SIGNED UP TO SPEAK TONIGHT. 
          OKAY. 
          THANK YOU SO MUCH TO ALL OF OUR SPEAKERS TODAY.

          THIS IS AGENDA ITEM ONE DISCUSSION, UH, OR I'M SORRY, UH, APPROVAL OF MINUTES FROM SEPTEMBER 29TH.

          UM, SO YOUR JOB IS VERY, VERY DIFFICULT. 
          I KNOW. 
          AND, UH, I LIVE IN DISTRICT THREE AND ACTUALLY THE OPPORTUNITY OR MINORITY DISTRICTS ARE REALLY, UH, THAT THAT'S A VERY DIFFICULT THING BECAUSE, UH, SO MANY PEOPLE ARE MOVING AND MIGRATING LIKE IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD WHERE IT WAS PRIMARILY HISPANIC AND AFRICAN-AMERICAN, IT'S NOW ALMOST A THIRD WHITE AND THAT'S OVER THE LAST NUMBER OF YEARS, BUT REALLY I'M HERE TO TALK ABOUT NEIGHBORHOOD INTEGRITIES. 
          AND AS YOU DRAW THESE LINES, I'M HOPEFUL THAT YOU WILL AVOID SPLITTING NEIGHBORHOODS APART FROM ONE STREET TO ANOTHER. 
          AND I KNOW, LIKE I SAY, I KNOW THAT YOUR JOB IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT, BUT, UM, 
          [00:20:01]
THIS IS WHAT I WANT TO SAY TO YOU THAT, THAT SOME NEIGHBORHOODS, UM, YOU KNOW, THE ECONOMICS AND THE CULTURE, UH, ARE CONTIGUOUS. 
          AND, UM, SO I'M HOPING THAT YOU DON'T SPLIT THOSE UP AS WE GO ALONG. 
          AND IT REALLY, THAT'S ALL I HAD TO SAY TO YOU AND, AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE.

          UH, I SEE IT ON THE RESOLUTION AND I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WHEN THE RESOLUTION DOES SAY NORTH OF INFIELD ROAD, INFIELD ROAD GOES ALL THE WAY DOWN TO LAMAR. 
          UM, A LOT OF PEOPLE THINK INFIELD ROAD, WHICH TURNS INTO WEST 15TH STREET IS, UM, IS INFIELD ROAD, BUT IT'S NOT INFILL ROAD GOES ALL THE WAY DOWN TO LAMAR AND THE PEOPLE DOWN THERE HAVE BEEN TRADITIONALLY IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION. 
          SO I APPRECIATE WHOEVER IS THE SPONSOR OF THIS, UH, AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

          OKAY. 
          THANK YOU. 
          THANK YOU TO OUR SPEAKERS TONIGHT. 
          ALL RIGHT, SO WE'RE GOING TO GO BACK TO OUR FIRST ORDER OF BUSINESS. 
          AGAIN, THIS IS AGENDA ITEM ONE, APPROVING THE MINUTES FROM THE SEPTEMBER 29TH MEETING. 
          PLEASE REVIEW THE MINUTES. 
          ARE THERE ANY CORRECTIONS TO THE MINUTES? IF THERE ARE NO CORRECTIONS, THE MINUTES ARE APPROVED. 
          THE NEXT ORDER OF BUSINESS IS TO A DISCUSSION OF DRAFT FINAL MAP. 
          SO AT THIS TIME WE WILL REVIEW THE MAP CHANGES LISTED IN THE SPREADSHEET BEFORE YOU, THIS LIST WAS CREATED BASED ON THE COMMISSION'S DISCUSSION FROM THE LAST MEETING ON SEPTEMBER 29TH, AS WELL AS A CAREFUL WALKTHROUGH OF ALL RECOMMENDATIONS AND CONCERNS PUT FORTH BY THE PUBLIC. 
          SINCE THE PRELIMINARY MAP WAS APPROVED ON SEPTEMBER 15TH. 
          AND JUST TO RECAP IN TOTAL, SINCE JULY COMMISSIONERS HAVE HOSTED 17 PUBLIC FORUMS HOSTED 163 ATTENDEES LISTENED TO 81, SPEAKERS COLLECTED 60 MAPS, 168 EMAILS AND NINE VOICE MESSAGES. 
          SO WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE TO CAPTURE ALL OF THIS TESTIMONY AND NOT MISS A THING, BECAUSE TONIGHT IS THE LAST NIGHT THAT WE WILL MAKE CHANGES TO THIS MAP, EXCEPT IN THE UNLIKELY EVENT, THAT THERE IS SOME GRAVE OVERSIGHT THAT HAS TO BE CORRECTED BETWEEN NOW AND WHEN WE CERTIFY IT, THE COMMISSIONERS LISTED ON THE SPREADSHEET INTEND TO PUT FORTH AND EXPLAIN THEIR RECOMMENDATIONS. 
          MR. KORBEL WILL DEMONSTRATE THE CHANGES ON HIS MAP AND, UH, VICE CHAIR GONZALEZ WILL DO SO AS WELL AND ASSIST WHERE NEEDED JUST AS A REMINDER TO COMMISSIONERS FOR HOW TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THIS PROCESS, PLEASE MAKE THE MOTION AND THEN MAKE YOUR CASE FOR IT RATHER THAN THE OTHER WAY AROUND. 
          ALL RIGHT. 
          SO WE CAN JUST START FROM THE TOP, UM, AND WE'LL WORK OUR WAY DOWN FROM THERE. 
          DOES EVERYONE HAVE THE SPREADSHEET WITH THEM? I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THERE WERE COPIES FOR ALL OF THE COMMISSIONERS TONIGHT. 
          OKAY. 
          SO THE FIRST ONE UP ON THE DOCKET HERE IS A MOVE FROM DISTRICT ONE TO DISTRICT NINE. 
          AND I BELIEVE COMMISSIONER KAMBO

          ROBERT DUNN WENT TO THE WEST CLYDE LITTLE FIELD SLASH MANOR ROAD TO THE SOUTH AND  TO THE EAST RESULTING IN NO POPULATION SHIFT. 
          OKAY. 
          IT IS MOVED AND SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER HARDEN THAT WOULD SPLIT BTD 2 0 6 KEEPING ONLY THE LBJ LIBRARY AND DISTRICT ONE, THE STREET BOUNDARIES BEING DEAN KEATON TO THE NORTH, ROBERT DEADMAN TO THE WEST CLYDE LITTLE FIELD MANOR ROAD TO THE CELLS AND  TO THE EAST. 
          IS THERE ANY FURTHER DEBATE? OKAY. 
          THE QUESTION IS ON THE ADOPTION OF THE MOTION THAT WE SPLIT VTD 2 0 6, KEEPING ONLY THE LBJ LIBRARY IN DISTRICT ONE WITH STREET BOUNDARIES, UM, BEING DEAN KEATON TO THE NORTH, ROBERT DEADMAN TO THE WEST CLYDE LITTLE FIELD MANOR ROAD TO THE SOUTH.

          I WANT TO SAY, I AM USING A SOFTWARE THAT HAS NOT MR. CORBELS OFFICIAL SOFTWARE.

          AND IT'S A SHIFT OF APPROXIMATELY 3,600 RESIDENTS SECOND. 
          OKAY. 
          IT HAS BEEN MOVED AND SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER BLANK TO MOVE VTD TWO 14 INTO DISTRICT 10. 
          UH, THIS IS THE BREAKER WOODS NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          YEAH.

          CAUSE I HAVEN'T LOOKED AT THIS IN DETAIL RATHER THAN BLAMING. 
          IT DOESN'T MATTER THAT I DID. 
          WHAT MATTERS IS THAT I'M ASKING FOR THAT EXPLANATION. 
          NOW THIS IS PART OF OUR DISCUSSION, CORRECT, BUT IT'S OKAY. 
          SO PARKER WOODS IS CURRENTLY ENCOMPASSED IN VTD TWO 14 AS WELL AS TWO 50. 
          LET'S GO AHEAD AND LOOK AT THAT ON THE MAP AS PART OF THE DISCUSSION. 
          PERFECT. 
          IF I SHARE UP DALLAS COULD JUST SHOW ON HIS SHARED SCREEN WHERE THAT IS, THIS WILL BE A CHANGE IN REAL TIME, NOT A CHANGE THAT'S APPROVED SO WE CAN GO BACK, BUT I'M GOING TO SHOW VTD TWO 14 AND I'M SWITCHING THAT FROM DENYING TO DTN, THE CURRENTLY VTB IS IN TO DISTRICT NINE S SWITCH WOULD PUT IT IN DISTRICT 10. 
          AND THE PART THAT IS NOT NOW SHADED PINK, THAT AT LEAST IS THE VTB AND, UH, THE MOTION CURRENTLY. 
          SO IT LOOKS ON THE MAP THAT YOU HAVE PART OF TWO 50, ALSO PINK YOU 50 AS PINK AS ACCORDING TO OUR PRELIMINARY MAP. 
          IS THERE ANY FURTHER DEBATE? OKAY. 
          THE QUESTION IS ON THE ADOPTION OF THE MOTION THAT VTD TWO 14 IS MOVED INTO DISTRICT 10, BEING THE BRAGGER WOODS NEIGHBORHOOD BACK IN DISTRICT 10, THOSE IN FAVOR OF THE MOTION. 
          RAISE YOUR HAND. 
          OKAY. 
          THOSE OPPOSED SAY NO, THE AYES HAVE IT. 
          AND THE MOTION IS ADOPTED CHAIR COMMISSIONER. 
          YEAH. 
          I JUST WANT TO CLARIFY THAT WHEN WE DO HAVE IT OPEN FOR DISCUSSION, IT ACTUALLY IS FOR DISCUSSION. 
          I DON'T APPRECIATE BEING TOLD THAT I HAD AN OPPORTUNITY TO, I HAVE DONE A LOT OF HOMEWORK ON THIS AND I SENT RECOMMENDATIONS AND I JUST WANT TO STATE THAT, LIKE, I DON'T APPRECIATE THE WORD, HOW VICE-CHAIR GONZALEZ SPOKE TO ME. 
          I'M ASKING A QUESTION ABOUT CITIZEN FEEDBACK, WHICH I RESEARCHED IN A LOT OF DETAIL AND I'D LIKE TO MAINTAIN A LEVEL OF RESPECTABILITY AND THESE DISCUSSIONS  WE WILL LOOK AT THE MAP THROUGH EACH OF THESE DISCUSSIONS THROUGH EACH OF THE MOTIONS. 
          OKAY. 
          SO THE NEXT THING ON THE LIST HERE IS FROM DISTRICT 10 TO DISTRICT NINE, VICE CHAIR CONZALEZ WILL HANDLE, UH, THIS MOTION AS WELL. 
          THANK YOU. 
          MA'AM SIR. 
          THIS MOTION IS TO SPLIT VTD TWO 50 AT ENFIELD ROAD, NORTH OF ENFIELD ROAD, UM, WOULD GO INTO DETACHMENT AND SOUTH OF ENFIELD ROAD WITHIN TWO 50 WOULD GO INTO DENYING I'LL SECOND THAT, OKAY. 
          IT IS MOVED AND SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER YE TO SPLIT VTD TWO 50 AT ENFIELD ROAD. 
          OKAY. 
          YEAH. 
          PER MR. REYNOLDS, I BELIEVE A TESTIMONY. 
          THERE IS A SMALL PORTION OF TWO 50, WHICH ON THE MAP IS ACTUALLY 15TH STREET, BUT I BELIEVE ACCORDING TO HIS TESTIMONY, HE WOULD LIKE THAT INCLUDED. 
          SO IF WE'RE SAYING INFIELD ROAD, I WANT TO SPECIFY THAT 
          [00:35:01]
IT WOULD GO FROM THE INFIELD ROAD AND THE BOUNDARY WOULD BE LAMAR BOULEVARD. 
          RIGHT. 
          THANK YOU. 
          LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THAT ON THE MAP VICE-CHAIR CONSOLE IS TO MAKE SURE THAT IT GETS TO LAMAR BOULEVARD. 
          WELL, VICE CHAIR GONZALEZ IS BARKING ON THAT MAP. 
          UM, MR. CORBELL, I WANT TO CLARIFY, UH, THAT WE WILL ALSO BE ABLE TO SEE THESE CHANGES WITH YOUR MAP THIS EVENING. 
          COULD YOU TURN YOUR MICROPHONE ON? I'M SORRY. 
          AS SOON AS WE'RE DONE HERE, WE'RE GOING I'LL, I'LL MAKE SURE THAT THEY'RE ALL ON HERE AND THEN, UM, AND THEN WE CAN HAVE IT AVAILABLE. 
          OKAY. 
          AND THAT WILL BE YOU THIS EVENING. 
          YES. 
          OKAY, GREAT. 
          THANK YOU. 
          LET'S GO AHEAD AND BELIEVE. 
          I HAVE IT SHOWN CORRECTLY ON THE MAP. 
          WE SEE THAT THE BLUE AREA GOES INTO LAMAR ONLINE. 
          I'M SEEING THAT THERE'S A PORTION IT'S, UM, KINGSBURY PARKWAY, WEST 15TH STREET AND PEACE PARK THAT LOOKS LIKE IT'S IN TWO 50. 
          AND SO I WANT TO ENSURE THAT WHEN WE ARE TALKING ABOUT NORTH OF INFIELD, THAT THAT NEIGHBORHOOD IS INCLUDED AND I CAN'T SEE IT ON YOUR MAP. 
          THERE'S NO STREETS OR THERE'S THERE'S I CAN'T, I DON'T KNOW WHERE PEACE PARK IS THERE BASED ON THE TESTIMONY, IF WE FEEL THAT THIS BOUNDARY FROM ENFIELD SHOULD GO INTO LAMAR, THIS MAP DOES SHOW IT GOING INTO LAMAR. 
          CAN I, UM, PROPOSE AN AMENDMENT THAT IT IS, UM, NORTH OF INFIELD ROAD, NORTH OF WEST 15TH STREET TO LAMAR. 
          JUST SO WE'RE EXTRA COVERED. 
          CAN YOU REPEAT THAT ONE MORE TIME? I'M ACTUALLY TRYING TO FIND, SO WHAT IS THE ACTUAL MOTION AS IT STATED? COULD YOU REPEAT IT FOR ME? THE QUESTION IS ON THE ADOPTION OF THE MOTION THAT, UM, BTD TWO 50 IS SPLIT AT ENFIELD ROAD. 
          SO MY AMENDMENT WOULD BE THAT IT'S SPLIT AT INFIELD ROAD, CONTINUING TO WEST 15TH STREET UNTIL LAMAR BOULEVARD. 
          LET ME MAKE SURE I CAN REPEAT THAT BACK TO YOU. 
          SO YOU WANT IT, UM, DO YOU WANT TO INSERT LANGUAGE INTO THE MOTION AS, AS YOUR AMENDMENT, CORRECT? UM, IT WOULD BE TO ADD, UM, I CAN, I, I'M JUST GOING TO REPEAT THE WHOLE THING. 
          SPLIT VTD TWO 50 AT INFIELD ROAD, ADDING, CONTINUING TO WEST 15TH STREET UNTIL LAMAR NORTH LAMAR BOULEVARD. 
          DO WE HAVE A SECOND? OKAY. 
          SO, UM, IT IS MOVED AND SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER BLANK TO, UM, INSERT THE WORDS, UM, UNTIL ADDING, CONTINUING TO WEST 15TH STREET, OR I'M SORRY, ADDING, CONTINUING TO WEST 15TH STREET, UM, UNTIL LAMAR AND BOULEVARD, UM, TO THE MOTION OF SPLITTING BTD TWO 50 AT ENFIELD ROAD. 
          SURE. 
          IT'S ACTUALLY NORTH LAMAR BOULEVARD. 
          I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S GOING TO BE 
          [00:40:01]
IMPORTANT WHEN WE FILED THIS COMMISSIONER BLANK. 
          I'D LIKE TO MOVE THE QUESTION ON THE AMENDMENT. 
          UH, SO THE QUESTION IS ON THE ADOPTION OF THE AMENDMENT THAT WE INSERT THE WORDS, UM, ADDING, CONTINUING TO WEST 15TH STREET UNTIL NORTH LAMAR BOULEVARD, UH, TO THE MOTION, UM, OF SPLITTING BTD TWO 50 AT ENFIELD ROAD. 
          THOSE IN FAVOR OF THE MOTION, RAISE YOUR HAND. 
          OKAY. 
          THOSE OPPOSED SAY NO, THE AYES HAVE IT AND THE AMENDMENT IS ADOPTED. 
          SO AGAIN, THE QUESTION IS NOW ON, UM, THE MAIN MOTION AS AMENDED TO, UH, SPLIT VTD TWO 50 AT ENFIELD ROAD, ADDING A CONTINUING TO WEST 15TH STREET UNTIL NORTH LAMAR BOULEVARD, COMMISSIONER BLANK, JUST SORT OF IN A GENERAL RESPONSE TO ALL THE TESTIMONY WE RECEIVED THIS EVENING, YOU KNOW, THIS IS SOME, I THINK REALLY GOOD WORK BY OUR COMMISSIONERS TO DO SOMETHING THAT WE SORT OF AVOID DOING GENERALLY, WHICH IS TO SPLIT VOTING PRECINCTS. 
          AND WE'RE DOING A VOTING PRECINCTS IN THIS CASE AND THROUGH THESE MOTIONS IN ORDER TO KEEP THE NEIGHBORHOODS TOGETHER THAT WE'VE HEARD A LOT OF FEEDBACK FROM. 
          SO THAT'S WHY WE'RE MOVING FROM THAT OR NO THAT'S OKAY. 
          SO ANYWAY, I JUST WANT TO COMMEND, UH, COMMISSIONER GONZALEZ AND SUPPORT THE MOTION. 
          I'D LIKE TO MOVE QUESTION, MOVE THE QUESTION BY CHERYL GONZALEZ. 
          I THINK I NEED A LITTLE BIT OF CLARIFICATION HERE AND I SEE THE GENTLEMAN WHO MADE THE, HIS TESTIMONY TO KIND OF SHAKE HIS HEAD. 
          NO, AT US THAT WE'RE DOING SOMETHING THAT IS, UM, A LITTLE BIT INCORRECT AND NOT WITH THE INTENTION OF EMISSION. 
          UM, WHAT I AM SEEING IS THAT ENFIELD DOES GO A LITTLE SOUTH AS A SNAP, THIS LITTLE POINT THAT YOU'LL SEE ON THAT LITTLE MAP, THAT PINK POINT. 
          UM, SO ENFIELD STILL CONTINUES AND THEN IT HITS THE MAR OLD INFIELD ROAD DOES INCLUDE THAT LITTLE PIECE ABOVE IT. 
          SO THE MOTION THAT IT CURRENTLY IS, IT'S SAYING THAT WE SHOULD CONTINUE DOWN AND FILL TWO 15. 
          THAT IS NOT, THAT IS NOT THE INTENTION OF THE MOTION. 
          AND I'M WONDERING IF, UM, WE CAN CALL ON A MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC FOR ANY CLARIFICATION HERE. 
          I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THIS ON THE MAP. 
          IS THERE A WAY TO SHOW THAT IN LIFETIME CHAIR, COMMISSIONER, THAT THE ALCON YEAH. 
          I'M REFERENCING THE CITY MAP. 
          UM, AND THAT IS WHAT I'M SEEING. 
          I ALSO HAVE SEVERAL TIMES DRIVEN DOWN IN FILLED ROAD. 
          I KNOW EXACTLY WHERE TO WEST 15TH. 
          UM, THAT'S ALSO THE AUSTIN MARATHON HILL OF DEATH. 
          SO I HAVE STARED AT THAT SIGN IN GRIEF MANY TIMES. 
          THANK YOU. 
          UH, I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THIS ON THE MAP AS PART OF OUR DISCUSSION. 
          YEAH. 
          UH, SO IS IT POSSIBLE FOR US TO GET CLARIFICATION FROM MR. CHRISTIANSON OR IS IT NOT APPROPRIATE, MR. CHRISTIANSON? DO YOU HAVE SOME WORDS ABOUT THIS AMENDMENT TO THE MOTION SHARE, GO AHEAD AND TAKE TWO MINUTES. 
          OUR OLD INFILL NEIGHBORHOOD TAKES GOES ALL THE WAY TO INFIELD ROAD, WHICH MEANS THAT LITTLE SECTION THAT THE TIP OF THE BOOT, SO TO SPEAK IS IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          THOSE PEOPLE ARE GO, GO TO ALL OF OUR NEIGHBORHOOD EVENTS. 
          SO BY DIVIDING IT AT 15TH STREET, YOU ARE, YOU'RE PUTTING A PORTION OF THE PEOPLE IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD, UH, IN A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT DISTRICT. 
          THAT 15TH STREET IS NOT THE DIVIDING LINE OF OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          THE LITTLE BOTTOM TIP AS IT'S DRAWN UP HERE IS, UM, IS THAT'S ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF 15TH STREET IS IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          THOSE PEOPLE THERE COME TO ALL OF OUR EVENTS. 
          THANK YOU, MR. CHRISTIANSEN, A QUESTION FOR MR. CHRISTIANSEN CHAIR. 
          YES, SIR. 
          AS YOU SEE IT ON THE MAP HERE, AT LEAST WITH THE BOOT, DOES THIS SEEM CORRECT? THAT'S THE BOUNDARIES OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION? 15 15TH STREET CUTS A PORTION OF OUR 
          [00:45:01]
NEIGHBORHOOD, ONLY A SMALL PORTION, BUT THOSE PEOPLE GO TO ALL THE NEIGHBORHOOD EVENTS. 
          SO IT WOULD BE, IF YOU WANT TO KEEP A NEIGHBORHOOD INTACT, YOU WOULD MAKE THE SOUTHERN BOUNDARY TO BE INFIELD ROAD WHERE IT JOINS LAMAR. 
          THANK YOU, SIR. 
          SIR, COULD YOU VERIFY THAT THE STREET THAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT IS A PARKWAY AND FIELD CONTINUING TO PARKWAY UNTIL NORTH OF YES. 
          IT'S, IT'S A PART OF THE PROBLEM IT'S BEEN BECAUSE PEOP WHEN 15TH STREET WAS THERE. 
          OKAY. 
          IT WAS BUILT IN THE SIXTIES. 
          UH, THE NEIGHBORHOOD WAS, YOU GOT INTO THE NEIGHBORHOOD BY COMING UP FROM INFIELD ROAD AT LAMAR. 
          UM, THE, A LOT OF PEOPLE VIEW THAT AS KIND OF THE ENTRANCE INTO PEACE PARK AND, UH, IT'S NOT 15TH STREET, 15TH STREET WAS BUILT LATER. 
          SO THE NEIGHBORHOOD BASICALLY HAD ITS BOUNDARIES AS INFIELD ROAD DOWN IN THAT LITTLE TIP OF THE BOOT AND PARKWAY IS ALL A PARKWAY IS, IS IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          YEAH. 
          I SEE THE ISSUE. 
          I SEE THE ISSUE, WHICH IS INFIELD GOES, AND YOU CAN EITHER SPLIT IT ON 15TH OR IT GOES DOWN TO PARKWAY. 
          SO IF WE LEAVE IT AS IN BUILD ROAD, UM, THOSE MAYBE 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 HOUSES ON PARKWAY, AREN'T GOING TO BE INCLUDED IN DISTRICT THE SAME DISTRICT. 
          SO I THANK YOU. 
          UM, COMMISSIONER KEY FOR HELPING ME UNDERSTAND THAT, BUT YEAH, IT'S THAT INFIELD MEETS PARKWAY, NOT NORTH LAMAR. 
          AND SO THE HOUSES BETWEEN PARKWAY AND SHOAL CREEK, IT'S UNCLEAR TO ME HOW THEY WILL BE IMPACTED IN THIS BECAUSE THEY'RE A PART OF TWO 50 RIGHT NOW. 
          IS THERE SOMETHING YOU WANTED TO SHOW US? YEAH, JUST PULLED UP A GOOGLE MAP VERSION OF, OF, OF OUR DISCUSSION RIGHT NOW. 
          SO AS YOU'LL SEE, AND FIELD DOES EXTEND A LITTLE BIT UNTIL THIS POINT OF WINSTON INTERIOR DESIGN, AND THEN IT DOES GO INTO PARKWAY. 
          SO WE WOULD, WE SHOULD AMEND THIS MOTION TO INCLUDE THAT IT GOES FROM ENFIELD TO PARKWAY AND KNAPP NORTH LAMAR BOULEVARD TO ENCOMPASS THE ENTIRETY OF THE OLD INFIELD NEIGHBORHOOD, WHICH THE INTENTION OF THIS MOTION IS TO DO JUST THAT. 
          SO MAYBE AMENDING THE CURRENT AMENDMENT ON THE, I BELIEVE THAT AN AMENDMENT CAN BE AMENDED, BUT COMMISSIONER CAMBO, COULD YOU SPEAK TO THAT? UM, SO THIS IS SOMETHING THAT I DEFINITELY WANT TO DOUBLE CHECK IF ANYONE ELSE KNOWS, BUT FROM WHAT I REMEMBER NOW THAT WE'VE ADOPTED THIS AMENDMENT, NOW IT'S THE MAIN MOTION SO WE CAN AMEND IT, BUT IT'S NOT GOING TO BE LIKE A DOUBLE AMENDMENT. 
          SO IT WOULD BE AN AMENDMENT TO THE MAIN MOTION AT THIS POINT, ESSENTIALLY. 
          IT IS THE MAIN MOTION. 
          RIGHT? GOTCHA. 
          COMMISSIONER BLANK. 
          ALL RIGHT. 
          SO IF I UNDERSTAND CORRECTLY, I CAN PROPOSE AN AMENDMENT RIGHT NOW TO THE MAIN MOTION THAT WE'VE, THAT HAS ALREADY BEEN AMENDED TO BASICALLY, UH, ESSENTIALLY WORK OVER THIS 15TH SECTION AND BASICALLY REPLACE IT WITH PARKWAY. 
          SO LET'S, CAN YOU READ THE MOTION BACK TO ME AS IT CURRENTLY STANDS CHAIR? YES. 
          EMOTION IS, UM, THAT WE SPLIT BTD TWO 50 AT ANFIELD ROAD, UM, CONTINUING TO WEST 15TH STREET UNTIL NORTH LAMAR BOULEVARD. 
          OKAY. 
          SO THEN I WOULD, UH, AMEND THAT TO SPLIT VTD TWO 50 AT ENFIELD ROAD, CONTINUING ON TO PARKWAY TO NORTH LAMAR BOULEVARD. 
          IS THAT, DO YOU FEEL LIKE THAT'S ENCOMPASSED THAT CORRECTLY? YES. 
          OKAY. 
          OKAY. 
          IT HAS BEEN MOVED AND SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER HARDEN. 
          THAT'D BE SPLIT VTD TWO 50 AT ANFIELD ROAD, CONTINUING TO PARKWAY TWO NORTH LAMAR BOULEVARD. 
          IS THERE ANY FURTHER DEBATE? OKAY. 
          THE QUESTION IS ON THE ADOPTION OF THE MOTION THAT WE SPLIT VTD TWO 50 AT AND FIELD ROAD, CONTINUING 
          [00:50:01]
TO PARKWAY TO NORTH LAMAR BOULEVARD. 
          THOSE IN FAVOR OF THE MOTION. 
          RAISE YOUR HAND THOSE OPPOSED SAY NO, YOU GUYS HAVE IT. 
          AND THE MOTION IS ADOPTED THE NEXT ITEM ON THIS SPREADSHEET. 
          I'M SORRY. 
          GO AHEAD. 
          COMMISSIONER BLINK, PARLIAMENTARY. 
          I BELIEVE THAT WE JUST DID A MOTION ON THE AMENDMENT. 
          SO NOW I'M SORRY. 
          YOU ARE CORRECT. 
          THAT WAS JUST THE, UH, THE AMENDMENT TO THE MOTION. 
          SO NOW THE QUESTION NOW, THE QUESTION IS TELL ON THE MAIN MOTION, UH, THE, UH, UH, LET'S SEE HERE. 
          SO THE MAIN MOTION IS TO SPLIT BTD TWO 50 AT ENFIELD ROAD, CONTINUING TO PARKWAY TO NORTH LAMAR BOULEVARD. 
          SO THOSE IN FAVOR OF THE MOTION, RAISE YOUR HAND. 
          THANK YOU TO CLARIFY COMMISSIONER DEMPSEY. 
          UM, THE, THE LAST VOTE WAS JUST TO ADD THAT AMENDMENT TO THE MOTION AND NOW WE ARE, UH, MOVING THE MOTION. 
          WE'RE ACTUALLY MOVING FORWARD WITH THIS. 
          YES. 
          OKAY. 
          UM, SO I'LL, I'LL REPEAT IT ONE MORE TIME, BECAUSE I THINK, UH, ONE OF OUR COMMISSIONERS WAS, UM, YOU KNOW, JUST WANT TO GET ALL OF OUR BASES COVERED HERE. 
          SO, UH, THE QUESTION IS ON THE ADOPTION OF THE MOTION THAT WE SPLIT VTD TWO 50 AT ENFIELD ROAD, CONTINUING TO PARKWAY TO NORTH LAMAR BOULEVARD. 
          THOSE IN FAVOR OF THE MOTION. 
          RAISE YOUR HAND. 
          OKAY. 
          THOSE OPPOSED SAY NO, THE AYES HAVE IT. 
          AND THE MOTION IS ADOPTED. 
          THANK YOU FOR THAT CORRECTION COMMISSIONER BLANK. 
          THE NEXT ITEM ON THE LIST IS A MOVE FROM DISTRICT. 
          I'M SORRY. 
          COMMISSIONER FALCO. 
          GO AHEAD. 
          I GUESS I'M ALSO THE AMENDMENT WE JUST, OR SORRY, THE MOTION WE JUST APPROVED IT. 
          DIDN'T WE, WE VOTED TO SPLIT TWO 50, BUT WE DID NOT VOTE ON IF WE WERE MOVING THAT ONE PART OF THAT DISTRICT. 
          SO JUST TO CLARIFY, THE PORTION NORTH OF INFIELD ROAD IS CURRENTLY WHICH DISTRICT IS IT IN CURRENTLY AND IS THAT WHERE IT'S STAYING? SO IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S IN DISTRICT 10 CURRENTLY JUST TO ANSWER THE COMMISSIONER. 
          SO THE MOTION HAS PASSED, UH, IN CURRENTLY THAT EFFECT IS NORTH OF ENFIELD ROAD TO PARKWAY TO NORTH LAMAR NORTH OF THAT WOULD GO INTO  OR IT WOULD REMAIN IN 10 AS PROPOSED BY OUR PRELIMINARY MAP, SOUTH OF ENFIELD WOULD GO INTO DENAI AND TO BE CLEAR, IT IS LISTED IN THE NOTES. 
          SO I CAN JUST READ THAT OUT LOUD, QUICKLY FOR EVERYONE'S CLARIFICATION. 
          UM, SO THIS IS TO KEEP BREAKER WOODS AND OLD END FIELD TOGETHER IN DISTRICT 10. 
          SO NORTH OF ENFIELD, INDUSTRY 10, UH, 10,000, I'M SORRY, 1009 93 RESIDENTS, AND THEN SOUTH OF ENFIELD AND DISTRICT NINE, 6,322 RESIDENTS. 
          SO I'M JUST NOT SURE THAT WE ACTUALLY OFFICIALLY MOVED THAT FROM DISTRICT 10 TO DISTRICT NINE. 
          THAT'S MY CONCERN. 
          WE HAVE SPLIT VTD TWO 50, EVERYTHING NORTH OF THAT, BASED ON OUR MOTION, WE'LL BE IN DISTRICT 10. 
          I DON'T BELIEVE LEAVE. 
          THE MOTION MENTIONED DISTRICT 10. 
          THE MOTION ONLY MENTIONED THE SPLITTING. 
          I THINK WE NEED ANOTHER MOTION. 
          WOULD YOU LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION? I'LL MAKE THE MOTION. 
          I MEAN, I UNDERSTAND THE TECHNICALITY OF THE MOTION WAS TO SPLIT TWO 50 AT, UM, AND FIELD, BUT I GUESS IN, IN THE MOTION IT WAS NOT SPECIFIED WHAT EFFECT THAT WOULD HAVE. 
          SO I WOULD MOTION THAT NOW WITH THE SPLIT OF VTD, TWO 50 AT ENFIELD ROAD THAT NORTH, THE NORTH PART OF VTD, TWO 50 NORTH OF ENFIELD WOULD REMAIN IN D 10 SOUTH OF INFIELD, 
          [00:55:03]
UM, WOULD GO INTO D NINE. 
          OKAY. 
          IT HAS BEEN MOVED AND SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER YE THAT THE SPLIT OF BTD TWO 50 FULLY DIDN'T MOVE NORTH OF ENFIELD IN DISTRICT 10 AND SOUTH OF ENFIELD IN DISTRICT NINE. 
          SURE. 
          CAN YOU READ THE MOTION? I'M NOT SURE THAT THAT'S WHAT COMMISSIONER GONZALES SAID, BUT I BELIEVE THAT IS THE CORRECT MOTION. 
          IT HAS MOVED AND SECONDED THAT THE SPLIT OF VTD TWO 50 WILL LEAVE, UH, NORTH OF ENFIELD IN DISTRICT 10 AND SOUTH OF ENFIELD AND DISTRICT NINE. 
          IS THERE ANY FURTHER DEBATE? OKAY. 
          THE QUESTION IS ON THE ADOPTION OF THE MOTION THAT THE SPLIT OF VTD TWO-FIFTY WILLFULLY IGNORED THE THEN FIELD IN DISTRICT 10 AND SOUTH OF ENFIELD IN DISTRICT NINE. 
          THOSE IN FAVOR OF THE MOTION, RAISE YOUR HAND, THOSE OPPOSED SAY NO, THE AYES HAVE IT. 
          AND THE MOTION IS ADOPTED. 
          UM, POINT OF ORDER CHAIR, GO AHEAD. 
          I JUST WANTED TO JUST BRING UP BASED ON, YOU KNOW, JUST BEING, TRYING TO GO THROUGH THIS BOOK AND, UM, I KNOW THERE'S SOME CONFUSION AROUND THE LANGUAGE, SO IF IT MAKES IT EASIER, PERHAPS WE CAN GET EVERYONE TO WRITE DOWN WHAT THEY'RE SAYING. 
          UM, I KNOW YOU'VE BEEN TAKING NOTES, BUT JUST AS THE CHAIR, YOU CAN REQUEST THAT EVERYONE WRITE THEIR, UM, MOTIONS AND AMENDMENTS AND WRITINGS. 
          SO THAT WAY THERE'S NO FOR THE CONFUSION. 
          JUST A COMMENT. 
          THANK YOU. 
          OKAY. 
          THE NEXT ITEM ON THE SPREADSHEET IS A MOVE FROM DISTRICT NINE TO DISTRICT 10. 
          I SHARE A GONZALEZ WILL HANDLE THIS RECOMMENDATION. 
          THANK YOU. 
          I'M SURE SOMETHING I'M GOING TO GO A LITTLE SLOWER HERE. 
          UM, JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT WE GET THIS, UM, WE'VE HEARD SOME, MY MOTION IS TO SPLIT VTD THREE 11 AT NORTH LAMAR, AND THIS WOULD BE TO ALLOW PEACE PARK WAS KNOWN AS PEACE PARK TO RESIDE IN ONE DISTRICT CURRENTLY WITH OUR MOTIONS. 
          IT IS SPLIT BETWEEN D NINE AND D 10. 
          CAN YOU REPEAT THE MOTION? LET'S SPLIT VTD THREE 11 AT NORTH LAMAR BOULEVARD. 
          AND THIS WOULD PUT PEACE PARK INTO DISTRICT 10? YES. 
          OKAY. 
          IS THAT A SECOND? NO. 
          OR I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE AN AMENDMENT. 
          I THINK THAT IT NEEDS TO BE SECONDED BEFORE ANYTHING CAN BE AMENDED. 
          OH, OKAY. 
          IT IS MOVED AND SECONDED THAT, UH, VTD THREE 11 IS SPLIT AT NORTH LAMAR TO PUT PEACE PARK INTO DISTRICT 10 KRISHNA. 
          YEAH, JUST THAT THE AREA WEST OF LAMAR WOULD GO INTO DISTRICT 10. 
          I ALSO, I CAN I SAY ONE MORE THING TOO, IS THAT WE'RE NOT ACTUALLY SPLITTING THE VOTER TABULATION DISTRICTS. 
          THE COUNTY ONLY CAN DO THAT. 
          SO WHAT WE'RE DOING IS MOVING OUR BOUNDARIES. 
          I JUST, AGAIN, LIKE IF SOMEONE REVIEWS THIS, I DON'T WANT THEM TO SAY THAT WE WERE OUT OF PROCEDURE. 
          THANK YOU. 
          ARE YOU SUGGESTING AN AMENDMENT? CAN YOU STATE YOUR AMENDMENT AGAIN? OKAY. 
          THAT THE AREA WEST OF NORTH LAMAR BOULEVARD WILL GO INTO DISTRICT 10, JUST TO BE CLEAR, YOUR AMENDMENT IS A SUBSTITUTE, CORRECT? YOU'RE SUBSTITUTING THE LANGUAGE OF THE LAST OF THE MOTION COMMISSIONER FALCON ISLE. 
          I'LL JUST MAKE A SUBSTITUTION THAT THE DISTRICT BOUNDARY OF DISTRICT 10 BE MOVED FROM 
          [01:00:01]
THE BOUNDARY OF TWO 14 TO NORTH LAMAR BOULEVARD. 
          CAN YOU PLEASE WRITE THAT DOWN FOR ME SO I CAN MAKE SURE I HAVE IT CORRECT. 
          THANK YOU. 
          I'M NOT SURE. 
          I JUST WANT TO ASK, I FEEL LIKE I'M MAKING THIS PROCESS PERSONALLY MAKING THIS A LITTLE BIT MORE DIFFICULT. 
          SO I'M MAKING A MOTION TO DO AN ACTION, BUT NOT ACTUALLY ADDING ADDITIONAL DETAIL. 
          SO THAT WOULD MAKE THE EMOTION QUITE LONG. 
          UM, SO I'M WONDERING IF THERE'S A WAY TO KIND OF TAKE A STEP BACK AND TO DO A NEW MOTION THAT INCLUDES STREET BOUNDARIES, UM, FOR THE PROPOSED CHANGE, IF THAT MIGHT HELP. 
          SURE. 
          LET'S SEE WHAT COMMISSIONER FEL CALLING COMES UP WITH. 
          MAYBE IT WILL INCLUDE STREET BOUNDARIES. 
          YEAH. 
          SO I'M JUST GOING TO READ OFF WHAT YOU HAVE HERE. 
          COMMISSIONER FEL KONG. 
          AND, UM, THIS IS THE DISTRICT BOUNDARY OF DISTRICT 10 BE AMENDED SO THAT THE NEW BOUNDARY IS NORTH LAMAR BOULEVARD BETWEEN WEST 24TH STREET TO THE NORTH AND WEST 15TH STREET TO THE SOUTH. 
          SO, UM, IF YOU COULD JUST STATE YOUR MOTION, UM, FOR YOUR AMENDMENT, YOU JUST TAKE AWAY MY NOTE. 
          OKAY. 
          SO I MOVED TO SUBSTITUTE THE STANDING AMENDMENT TO BE REPLACED AS FOLLOWS THE DISTRICT BOUNDARY OF DISTRICT STANDING MOTION, JUST TO BE CLEAR STANDING. 
          OKAY. 
          I DON'T UNDERSTAND. 
          WE'RE WE'RE AMENDING THE MOTION, NOT AN AMENDMENT JUST TO BE CLEAR. 
          OKAY. 
          SO I MOVED TO SUBSTITUTE THE LANGUAGE OF THE MOTION TO BE SUBSTITUTED WITH THE DISTRICT BOUNDARY OF DISTRICT 10 WILL BE AMENDED SO THAT THE NEW BOUNDARIES NORTH LAMAR BOULEVARD BETWEEN WEST 24TH STREET TO THE NORTH AND WEST 15TH STREET TO THE SOUTH. 
          YEAH. 
          DO WE HAVE A SECOND? SO IT IS MOVED AND SECONDED BY VICE CHAIR CONSOLE IS TO AMEND THE MOTION BY SUBSTITUTING OF THE FOLLOWING THE DISTRICT BOUNDARY OF DISTRICT 10, BE AMENDED SO THAT THE NEW BOUNDARY IS NORTH LAMAR BOULEVARD BETWEEN WEST 24TH STREET TO THE NORTH AND WEST 15TH STREET TO THE SOUTH. 
          SO THE QUESTION IS ON THE MOTION TO SUBSTITUTE. 
          IS THERE ANY FURTHER DEBATE? OKAY. 
          SO THE QUESTION IS ON THE MOTION TO SUBSTITUTE, UH, THE FOLLOWING FOR THE ORIGINAL MOTION. 
          UM, THE DISTRICT BOUNDARY OF DISTRICT 10 BE AMENDED SO THAT THE NEW BOUNDARY IS NORTH LAMAR BOULEVARD BETWEEN WEST 24TH STREET TO THE NORTH AND WEST 15TH STREET TO THE SOUTH. 
          THOSE IN FAVOR OF THE MOTION, RAISE YOUR HAND THOSE OPPOSED, SAY NO, THE AYES HAVE IT. 
          AND THE MOTION IS ADOPTED. 
          SO, UH, THE QUESTION IS NOW ON THE MAIN MOTION AS AMENDED THE DISTRICT BOUNDARY OF DISTRICT 10, UM, 
          [01:05:02]
BE AMENDED SO THAT THE NEW BOUNDARY IS NORTH LAMAR BOULEVARD BETWEEN WEST 24TH STREET TO THE NORTH AND WEST 15TH STREET TO THE SOUTH. 
          CAN WE SEE THIS ON THE MAP? THANKS. 
          YOU CAN TELL US, CAN YOU JUST TALK US THROUGH WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT HERE ON THE MAP? OF COURSE, LET ME, LET ME REVERT IT BACK TO OUR MAP. 
          THIS IS WHAT IT CURRENTLY LOOKS LIKE ON OUR PRELIMINARY MAP. 
          IT'S A LITTLE HIGHLIGHTED, A LITTLE DARKER BLUE SECTION, RIGHT ON THE PINK BOUNDARY. 
          SO THE MOTION THAT WE HAVE PASSED NOW PUT THAT PARCEL THAT BLOCK OF, UM, THIS VOTING PRECINCT INTO DEACON NORTH OF HERE IS 24TH STREET, 15TH STREET. 
          AND THEN TO THE EAST, NORTH LAMAR BOULEVARD, PEACE PARK IS IN ONE DISTRICT. 
          IS THERE ANY FURTHER DEBATE? OKAY. 
          SO THE QUESTION IS ON THE ADOPTION OF THE MOTION THAT THE DISTRICT BOUNDARY OF DISTRICT 10 BE AMENDED SO THAT THE NEW BOUNDARIES AND ALYSSA MAR BOULEVARD BETWEEN WEST 24TH STREET TO THE NORTH AND WEST 15TH STREET TO THE SOUTH, THOSE IN FAVOR OF THE MOTION, RAISE YOUR HAND. 
          THOSE OPPOSED, SAY NO, THE AYES HAVE IT. 
          AND THE MOTION IS ADOPTED. 
          ALL RIGHT. 
          THE NEXT ITEM IS A MOVE FROM DISTRICT EIGHT TO DISTRICT 10. 
          THIS RECOMMENDATION IS PUT FORTH BY COMMISSIONER VICE-CHAIR GONZALEZ. 
          I'LL HAVE AN EXPLAIN THE RECOMMENDATION, MADAM CHAIR, I MOVE THAT WE SHIFT, UH, AND WE'RE USING BTDS, UM, AS KIND OF REFERENCED HERE, UM, VTD 3, 1 8, VTD 3, 3 8, AND VTD 2 21 INTO DISTRICT 10 FROM DISTRICT EIGHT, COMMISSIONER YOU, IS THAT A SECOND? I'VE ACTUALLY JUST A COMMENT. 
          AND I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS GOING TO CLARIFY ANYTHING, IS, IS THIS ABOUT THE MOTION I WOULD ASK THAT WE MAKE SURE THAT THIS IS AN OFFICIAL MOTION BEFORE WE, UM, ENGAGE IN A DEBATE ABOUT IT. 
          DO WE HAVE A SECOND MINUTE? OKAY. 
          COMMISSIONER IN SECONDS. 
          SO IT IS MOVED AND SECONDED THAT, UM, VTD IS 3 18, 3 38 AND 2 21 MOVE FROM DISTRICT EIGHT TO DISTRICT 10. 
          I THINK THAT, UM, THE DESCRIPTIONS THAT YOU HAVE WRITTEN HERE, UH, ARE ACTUALLY QUITE GOOD. 
          LIKE THE, SOME OF THE AMENDMENTS THAT WE'VE MADE TO THE LANGUAGE OF THE MOTIONS ARE ALMOST AS YOU HAVE WRITTEN THEM HERE. 
          AND I'M WONDERING IF WE SHOULD MOVE TO MAKING THESE, THE MOTIONS AS OPPOSED TO REFERENCING THEM AS BTDS, IF THAT MAKES ANY SENSE. 
          UM, YOU'RE PROPOSING THAT WE USE THE LANGUAGE THAT'S WITHIN THE NOTES TO MAKE THE MOTION. 
          YEAH. 
          I'M SUGGESTING THAT BECAUSE IN THE NOTES, YOU'RE VERY CLEAR ABOUT WHAT STREETS ARE THE BOUNDARIES AND THINGS LIKE THAT. 
          WOULD YOU LIKE TO PROPOSE AN AMENDMENT TO THE MOTION? WELL, IF I WAS TO MAKE AN AMENDMENT, I WOULD JUST USE THE NOTES THAT YOU'VE WRITTEN HERE, WHICH IS TO USE HIGHWAY 360 AS AN IDENTIFIABLE BOUNDARY SHIFTING 2,222 RESIDENTS, UM, OVER FROM THE ENTITY 10 MR. FALCON, DID YOU EVER COMMENT? YEAH, IT WAS JUST GOING TO ADD TO THAT DISCUSSION IN THIS CASE, BECAUSE THEY'RE MOVING WHOLE VOTER TABULATION DISTRICTS, IT WORKS FINE TO MOVE THEM IT'S IN THE CASE WHEN WE'RE SPLITTING THEM, THAT WE SHOULD BE MORE CAREFUL ABOUT THE BOUNDARIES. 
          THAT'S MY OPINION. 
          I FEEL THE MOTION AS STANDS, CAPTURES WHAT WE WANT, BUT I, I GUESS 
          [01:10:01]
ONE QUESTION I WOULD ADD IS THAT WE LEARNED FROM THE LAST COMMISSION THAT WHAT HAPPENED WHEN THEY USE VOTER TABULATION DISTRICTS, WAS THAT WHEN THE COUNTY CHANGED THEM, THEN THE BOUNDARIES CHANGED THEM AS WELL. 
          SO IF THAT'S THE REASON WHY THAT HAPPENED, I AM IN AGREEMENT WITH YOUR SUGGESTION COMMISSIONER. 
          OKAY, COOL. 
          BUT THE NEXT ONE IS WE, WE SPLIT ANOTHER VTD. 
          SO I RECOMMEND WE, UH, USE THE NOTES, UH, AS THE MOTION ON THE NEXT ONE, MAYBE. 
          SO JUST TO BE CLEAR, COMMISSIONER YEAR, YOU OFFERING AN AMENDMENT TO THE MOTION. 
          IT SOUNDS LIKE I DON'T NEED TO AMEND IT. 
          I DON'T KNOW IF ANYONE ELSE FEELS COMMISSIONER BLANK, JUST REAL QUICK. 
          WE HEARD A LOT OF, UH, COMMENTS ABOUT THIS AND IT INVOLVED BOTH, UH, CONTRIBUTES ALL AS MEXICAN TEACHER, UH, UH, IN OTHER COMMISSIONERS DISTRICTS ANYWAY, JUST TO GET THROUGH THIS REAL QUICK, JUST WANT TO, BECAUSE FOR THE PUBLIC RECORD HERE, BUT A LOT OF PEOPLE THERE, A LOT OF CONCERNS ABOUT POPULATION SIZE OF A DISTRICT EIGHT AND THE SPREAD OF IT. 
          AND I BELIEVE THIS MOTION WOULD ADDRESS BOTH OF THESE CONCERNS. 
          UH, YOU KNOW, I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD EXPECT CITIZENS TO CONSIDER THE IMPACT OF THEIR PREFERENCES ON ADJACENT DISTRICTS. 
          I THINK THAT'S UNNECESSARY AND A LITTLE MUCH HERE. 
          I THINK THAT FALLS ON US, BUT I THINK THAT THIS CHANGES BOTH ACCOMMODATES THE CONCERNS WE HEARD AND MAKES THE MAPS BETTER. 
          SO I'M VERY MUCH IN FAVOR OF THIS CHANGE TO, FOR THAT REASON. 
          THANK YOU. 
          COMMISSIONER BLANK, CHRISTIAN. 
          YEAH. 
          IN RESPONSE TO THAT, UM, WE HEARD A LOT OF TESTIMONY ABOUT VOTER TABULATION DISTRICTS, 3 0 7 AND TWO 12. 
          AND I NOTED THAT THOSE ARE STAYING IN DISTRICT EIGHT. 
          COULD YOU SPEAK TO THAT, MR. BLANK? GO AHEAD. 
          UH, JUST TO CLARIFY FOR ME, UH, WHICH SINCE WE'RE, WE'RE MOVING BACK AND FORTH, I'M A LITTLE BETTER WITH THE GEOGRAPHY. 
          COULD YOU TELL ME WHICH WHERE THE GEOGRAPHY IS OF 3 0 7 AND THREE 12? YEAH. 
          SO 3, 3 0 7 IS THE AREA SOUTH OF TOWN LAKE OR LADY BEAR LAKE, UM, KIND OF, UH, WEST OF MOPAC. 
          AND TO BE HONEST, I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO FIND TWO 12 ACTUALLY. 
          IT'S, IT'S ALSO THE AREA, UM, WEST OF THE LAKE, JUST KIND OF IT'S LIKE WESTLAW ALONG WEST LAKE DRIVE. 
          SURE. 
          YEAH, ACTUALLY, YOU KNOW, IN FACT, AT LEAST HALF OF THAT WAS ALREADY INCLUDED IN DISTRICT EIGHT AND THE LAST SET OF MAPS, WHICH I THINK A LOT OF THE RESIDENTS WHO COMMENTED WANTED US TO BASICALLY MAINTAIN DISTRICT EIGHT AS IS. 
          SO PART OF THAT CHANGE WOULD, WOULD CONTINUE TO MAINTAIN THAT ULTIMATELY THE VTD THAT IS JUST SOUTH OF TOWN LAKE AND JUST WEST OF MOPAC WAS ALREADY IN DISTRICT EIGHT. 
          AND I BELIEVE I TURNED THIS OVER TO MR. GONZALEZ, THAT WE'RE ONLY TALKING ABOUT A LITTLE BIT MORE OF AN ADDITION. 
          AND PART OF THE RESPONSE IN THIS CASE IS JUST THE FACT THAT DISTRICT 10 IS EXTENDING FURTHER AND FURTHER TO THE NORTHWEST TO ACCOMMODATE POPULATION GROWTH IN DISTRICT SIX AND SUCH ALSO TO KEEP DISTRICT 10, SOMEWHAT GEOGRAPHICALLY COMPACT, WE'RE SHIFTING SOME VOTING PRECINCTS AROUND AND ALSO TO MAINTAIN POPULATION PARODY ACROSS THESE, WHICH IS, WHICH IS THE ULTIMATE GOAL. 
          AND I THINK THIS ACHIEVES THIS PRETTY WELL. 
          IS THAT RIGHT? I SURE THAT IS CORRECT. 
          YEAH. 
          SO JUST SO I'M CLEAR. 
          SO AT THE END OF THIS AMENDMENT, SHOULD IT PASS, WHERE WILL VTD 3 0 7 AND 2, 1 2 LIE, BECAUSE CURRENT, LIKE ON THE LAST MAP THAT WE PRESENTED, THEY WERE IN DISTRICT EIGHT. 
          CORRECT. 
          SO MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT ONCE WE PASS THIS, THEY WILL REMAIN IN DISTRICT EIGHT. 
          AND THEN MY QUESTION IS THAT'S CONTRARY IS THE REASON WHY WE'RE NOT MOVING THOSE FOUR POPULATION BALANCE. 
          CORRECT? YEAH. 
          IT ALSO HAD ACTUALLY IS IT'S FOR BALANCE. 
          AND ALSO TO THE EXTENT THAT, UH, THERE WERE COMMENTS ABOUT THIS, AND THIS IS, YOU KNOW, WHETHER YOU WANT TO INCLUDE THIS IN YOUR FACTORS OR NOT, PEOPLE MENTIONED THAT MEANS INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT AND THE WRAPAROUND UP THERE. 
          SO TECHNICALLY THIS ACTUALLY STILL KEEPS MORE OF THAT IN ONE DISTRICT, WHETHER THAT'S A VALID CONCERN, NOT THAT DOES REFLECT THE COMMENTS THAT WE GOT FROM SOME SUBSET OF THE PEOPLE WHO HAD CONCERN ABOUT THE GROWTH IN THE DISTRICT DATE SIZE. 
          SO TO CLARIFY, THE 3 0 7 AND THE 2 0 2, 2, 1 2 ARE NOT IN THE EAN SCHOOL DISTRICT, I'D HAVE TO GO. 
          AND CROSS-REFERENCE THE IN SCHOOL DISTRICT MAP FORMAT AT THIS POINT, I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO SEE THESE PROPOSED CHANGES ON THE MAP IF POSSIBLE, WHETHER FROM VICE-CHAIR GONZALEZ OR MR. PORTAL. 
          OKAY. 
          VICE-CHAIR GONZALEZ WILL SHOW US ON HIS MAP, 
          [01:15:05]
BUT I WOULD SAY THAT THE ABSOLUTE PRIMARY DRIVER HERE IS POPULATION BALANCE HAVING TO DO WITH SOME OF THE CHANGES THAT WE'RE MAKING BETWEEN NINE AND 10, BETWEEN 10 AND SIX, AND THEN TRUTHFULLY, THERE'S NOT A LOT, THERE'S NOWHERE ELSE THAT EIGHT CAN REALLY SHIFT WITH IN TERMS OF THE OTHER POPULATIONS, UH, DUE TO THE SIZE OF DISTRICT FIVE. 
          THAT'S GREAT. 
          OKAY. 
          THE MEETING WILL COME TO ORDER AT THE TIME OF RECESS HAS EXPIRED. 
          WE ARE BACK ON, UH, THE MOTION TO MOVE 3 18, 3 38 AND 2 21 FROM DISTRICT EIGHT, DISTRICT 10. 
          AND, UM, DURING THE BREAK WE HAD MR. CORVEL PULL UP HIS MAP TO DEMONSTRATE WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE. 
          SO MR. CORBELL, IF YOUR MICROPHONE IS ON, PLEASE, UM, YOU'RE WELCOME TO EXPLAIN TO THE COMMISSIONERS, UM, THE, THE CHANGE HERE THAT WE'RE WORKING WITH. 
          UM, ALL RIGHT. 
          UM, HERE IS WHAT COMMISSIONER WAS TALKING ABOUT. 
          THEY'RE PROPOSING TO SPLIT SPLIT A PERIOD OF, UM, BETWEEN EIGHT AND 10 LOOKS LIKE THE  DISTRICT ALSO EXTENDED WESTLAKE WESTLAKE DRIVE C. 
          UM, SO WE WOULD PROBABLY HAVE TO MOVE FURTHER BACK. 
          UM, I CAN TELL YOU WHAT VTD IS, IF YOU MOVE PART OF IT, UH, IF YOU MOVE THE PART OF THE BT , 
          [01:20:05]
UM, 3 38 AND DTB THREE SYSTEM THAT WILL PUT ALL OF, ALL OF THE EASE INDEPENDENT SCHOOL SCHOOLS IN THE DISTRICT IN DISTRICT 10, UM, THE WEST LAKE DISTRICT, MR. CORVEL, UNDER THIS PROPOSED CHANGE, COULD YOU TELL US WHAT THE POPULATION TOTALS FOR DISTRICT 10 AND DISTRICT IT WOULD BE? YES. 
          DISTRICT EIGHT 99,175 IN DISTRICT 10  UH, AND SO RIGHT NOW, THE LET'S SEE, SO REALLY IF WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE, THE DISTRICTS SOUTH OF THE RIVER AND WEST OF HIGHWAY 360, THOSE DISTRICTS, UH, AS I'M, IF I'M READING NOTES CORRECTLY ADDS ABOUT TWO THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED TWENTY TWO THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED RESIDENTS, APPROXIMATELY. 
          YES. 
          OKAY. 
          AND SO SHIFTING ANY MORE OF THAT WOULD BASICALLY JUST BE, YOU KNOW, IN TERMS OF FLIPPING THE OVERALL SIZE BETWEEN DISTRICT AID AND DISTRICT 10 WOULD JUST BASICALLY BE MAKING ONE, BASICALLY MOVING BETWEEN A DISTRICT THAT'S 97 99 MAKING THE OTHER DISTRICT AT 99 VERSUS 97. 
          YES. 
          ESSENTIALLY PULL BACK TO WHERE YOU START CONFIRM PLAN. 
          JUST WANTED TO SOME MORE POPULATION DATA FOR US WHERE ALL OF THE VPDS SOUTH OF THE RIVER, WE HAD THEM IN DISTRICT EIGHT IN OUR PRELIMINARY MAP THAT PUT THE POPULATION OF DISTRICT EIGHT AT ABOUT 101,000 AND SOME CHANGE. 
          IF WE WOULD HAVE REVERTED ALL OF THOSE BACK TO DISTRICT 10, THE POPULATION OF DISTRICT 10 WOULD HAVE GROWN TO OVER A HUNDRED THOUSAND AS WELL BEFORE THIS CHANGE. 
          IF YOU LOOKED AT THE POPULATION OF DISTRICT 10 AFTER THE ADOPTIONS OF THE DOWNTOWN AREA, DISTRICT 10 WAS THAT 94,000 INDIVIDUALS. 
          SO A LITTLE UNDERPOPULATED. 
          SO WE FEEL LIKE THIS SHIFT, UH, USING 360 AS A BOUNDARY WITH EAT, WHAT KIND OF BALANCE THE POPULATIONS BETWEEN THE 10 AND THE EIGHT AS THEY CURRENTLY ARE 99,000 1 75 FOR D EIGHT AND ABOUT 97,000 1 66 FOR DTN CONDITION FALCON. 
          I THINK I ALSO SEE NOW, SO WE WILL LEAVE DISTRICT TWO 12 IN DISTRICT EIGHT, WHICH IS BEANS, WHICH IS WHERE THE REST OF THE EAN SCHOOL DISTRICT IS. 
          AND WE'LL LEAVE 3 0 7 AND EIGHT WHERE THE REST OF THE IAN SCHOOL DISTRICT IS CORRECT. 
          AND THEN I DID HAVE A NOTE THAT I'M NOT SURE WE HAD MOVED 360 4. 
          WHAT, WHERE IS 360 4 CURRENTLY ON OUR PROPOSED MAP. 
          MR. CORBELL CAN SHOW THAT TO US BECAUSE THAT'S THE ONE WHERE, WHEN I WENT THROUGH THE MOTIONS, I DON'T THINK THAT I'M NOT SURE THAT WE MOVED IT AS WE INTENDED YEAH. 
          IT'S JUST LIKE A SMALL PART OF IT. 
          LIKE MOST OF IT'S UNINCORPORATED, BUT IT'S A VERY SMALL PART. 
          MM. 
          ALL RIGHT. 
          360 4. 
          IS THIS PIECE DOWN HERE AT THE BOTTOM? THAT'S THAT IS PART OF, 
          [01:25:01]
UM,  I THINK THERE'S NO POPULATION IN THAT AREA, IN THE CITY OF BOSTON, BUT CHECK. 
          YES. 
          OKAY. 
          THERE'S ALSO, THERE'S THAT LITTLE AREA. 
          AND THEN THERE'S THE LITTLE SPIKE, A LITTLE FURTHER NORTH, WHICH AT LEAST ACCORDING TO THIS MAP, WHICH WE'VE BEEN TOLD COULD HAVE SOME INACCURACIES HAS SOME PARTS. 
          SO MY CONCERN IS JUST THAT WE, THIS WAS IN DISTRICT 10, I BELIEVE IN THE PRELIMINARY MAP, WE MOVED INTO DISTRICT EIGHT AND I DON'T THINK WE OFFICIALLY MOVED IT BACK TO DISTRICT TENS. 
          SO JUST WANT TO CONFIRM WHERE WE INTEND THAT TO BE, AND THAT WE HAD THE PROPER MOTIONS TO SUPPORT THAT, JUST TO BE CLEAR THAT EVERYTHING SOUTH OF THE RIVER WASN'T DISTRICT DATA AND THE PLURAL PRELIMINARY MAP THAT WE RELEASED. 
          AND SO NOW IF WE'RE MOVING ANYTHING BACK, WE'RE MOVING BACK INTO DISTRICT 10, NATHAN, THAT WE DON'T TOUCH REMAINS IN DISTRICT AIDS. 
          RIGHT? CORRECT. 
          I'M NOT SURE WHAT THAT MEANS, BUT MY THING WAS THAT WHEN WE HAD THE MOTIONS LAST TIME, WE DID NOT INCLUDE 360 4. 
          AND SO I POINTED THAT OUT AFTER THE MEETING. 
          SO I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE USE THIS TIME TO CORRECT IT BEFORE WE HAVE TO GO INTO SOME KIND OF LEGAL THING. 
          THANK YOU, COMMISSIONER FOLK ON, JUST TO CLARIFY COMMISSIONER CLEANSE QUESTIONS, MR. CORBELL, SIR, CAN WE VERIFY THAT THERE IS NO POPULATION WITHIN THE VTD OF 3, 6, 4 THAT IS CURRENTLY SHADED GRAY FOR DISTRICT EIGHT? THIS, THIS IS THE, THIS IS THE PIECE OF 360 4 OF THE 10, THEIR POPULATION IS ACCORDING TO THIS, THE BLACK POPULAR. 
          UM, SO WE'RE GOING TO WANT TO FINISH THIS MOTION, JUST, JUST, UM, TO CLARIFY, AND THEN WE CAN, IF WE NEED TO WORK WITH VTD 360 4, THAT COULD BE A SEPARATE MOTION. 
          UM, SO TO BE CLEAR THOUGH, THAT SECTION OF 360 4, THAT IS IN DISTRICT EIGHT, DOES NOT HAVE POPULATION, BUT WE WOULD STILL WANT TO INCLUDE IT AS PART OF DISTRICT EIGHT. 
          THERE'S ANOTHER SMALL LITTLE PORTION. 
          LIKE IT ALMOST LOOKS LIKE WEST VIRGINIA. 
          THAT'S AWESOME. 
          THAT'S AWESOME. 
          IT DOES LOOK LIKE WEST VIRGINIA. 
          IS THERE ANY FURTHER DEBATE ABOUT MOVING THESE THREE BTDS FROM DISTRICT EIGHT TO DISTRICT 10. 
          OKAY. 
          THE QUESTION IS ON THE ADOPTION OF THE MOTION. 
          THAT'D BE TTD THREE 18 VTD 3 38 AND V 2221 MOVED FROM DISTRICT EIGHT TO DISTRICT 10, UTILIZING THE HIGHWAY 360 AS AN IDENTIFIABLE, BOUNDARY THOSE IN FAVOR OF THE MOTION. 
          RAISE YOUR HAND. 
          CAN I HAVE, UM, PUNISHMENT HELD IT ON UP ON THE SCREEN. 
          I CANNOT SEE HER AT THE MOMENT. 
          I WANT TO MAKE SURE I GET HER VOTE. 
          OH, IS SHE NOT ON THERE ANYMORE? OKAY. 
          THANK YOU. 
          UM, SHE HASN'T WITH THE LIVESTREAM, SO, UM, WHAT IS YOUR PHONE? OKAY. 
          THANK YOU. 
          UH, THOSE OPPOSED SAY NO, THE AYES HAVE IT. 
          AND EMOTION IS ADOPTED. 
          THE NEXT ITEM ON THE LIST IS A MOVE FROM DISTRICT THREE TO DISTRICT NINE. 
          UM, AND COMMISSIONER HARDEN WILL, UH, PUT FORTH THIS RECOMMENDATION. 
          THANK YOU. 
          MADAM CHAIR, I MOVE THAT. 
          WE MODIFY THE PRELIMINARY 
          [01:30:01]
BOUNDARIES, UH, DISTRICT THREE AND DISTRICT NINE TO MOVE THE FOLLOWING GEOGRAPHICAL AREAS FROM THE THREE TO THE NOT EAST RIVERSIDE DRIVE TO THE NORTH PARKER LANE TO THE EAST OLD TURF TO THE SOUTH, SOUTH 35 TO THE WEST SECOND. 
          OKAY. 
          SO IT HAS, UH, HAS BEEN MOVED AND SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER CAMPBELL, EXCUSE ME, UH, THAT WE MODIFY THE PRELIMINARY BOUNDARIES OF DISTRICT THREE AND DISTRICT NINE TO MOVE THE FOLLOWING GEOGRAPHICAL AREA FROM DISTRICT THREE TO DISTRICT NINE EAST RIVERSIDE DRIVE TO THE NORTH PARKER LANE TO THE EAST OLTORF TO THE SOUTH END, SOUTH I 35 TO THE WEST COMMISSIONER HARDEN. 
          WOULD YOU LIKE TO SPEAK ON THIS MOTION? CERTAINLY. 
          THANK YOU. 
          MADAM CHAIR. 
          UH, THE RATIONALE FOR THIS MOVE, UM, UH, ONE COMPONENT IS THAT AN EXISTING NEIGHBORHOOD ASKED TO BE REUNITED, UH, BASED ON COMMON, UH, SOCIAL VALUES AND ENTRUST. 
          UH, THIS MOTION TAKES CARE OF THAT. 
          THE OTHER THING THAT IT DOES, IT, UM, INCREASES THE, UH, HISPANIC OPPORTUNITY DISTRICT, UH, PERCENTAGE. 
          UH, IT GOES FROM THE VOTING AGE, UH, PERCENTAGE GOES FROM THE 40.04 TO 40 POINT. 
          I MEAN, EXCUSE ME, 40 POINT. 
          LET ME GET MY GLASSES ON 40.4% TO 40.6%. 
          AND SO WHEN I, UH, LOOK AT THAT NUMBER, IF YOU JUST LOOK AT IT, STATISTICALLY, IT SEEMS INSIGNIFICANT, BUT WHEN YOU USE THAT AS A MULTIPLIER FOR REAL HUMANS, REAL LIVES REALLY EVENT, AND YOU MULTIPLY THAT BY THE 91,000 PLUS PEOPLE THAT COULD EQUATE TO 180 PLUS OF BOATS. 
          UM, ALSO, UH, OVER TIME AT EACH ANNUAL CYCLE, PEOPLE WILL AGE INTO THE VOTING AGE POPULATION. 
          THIS MOVE MAY ALSO HELP OFFSET THE EFFECTS OF GENTRIFICATION AND ATTRITION. 
          THANK YOU. 
          THANK YOU. 
          COMMISSIONER HARDEN, COMMISSIONER BLINK. 
          YEAH. 
          WHEN WE TRIED TO GO THROUGH THESE RECOMMENDATIONS, THIS WAS ACTUALLY ONE OF THE, ONE OF THE ONES THAT WE WERE STUCK ON THE LONGEST AND DECIDED THIS WAS SOMETHING THAT WE DEFINITELY HAD TO BRING OUT FOR A VOTE. 
          SO THAT IS DEFINITELY THE, THE PRO ARGUMENT. 
          I DON'T DISAGREE WITH THE ARGUMENT THAT THE COMMISSIONER MADE 100% READ THE COUNTER-ARGUMENT. 
          AND AGAIN, I'M SOMEWHAT AMBIVALENT ON THIS, UH, IS THAT IT WILL INCREASE THE OVERALL DEVIATION IN OUR DISTRICTS, UH, BY CLOSE TO 25% A WEEK. 
          AND AS MR. CORVEL TO CONFIRM THAT. 
          UH, AND SO THAT WAS SORT OF THE QUESTION HERE IS, YOU KNOW, IT'S A, IT'S A MARGINAL INCREASE IN, IN, I MEAN, YOU KNOW, YOU CAN DECIDE HOW MARGINAL EXTREMELY MARGINAL WORK OR CONSEQUENTIAL, YOU KNOW, INCREASE IN THE HISPANIC OPPORTUNITY IN THE, UH, HISPANIC REPRESENTATION OR PART HISPANIC PERCENTAGE IN THE HISPANIC OPPORTUNITY DISTRICT. 
          IT WILL INCREASE THE DEVIATION OF OUR DISTRICTS A FAIR AMOUNT. 
          AND SO IT'S KIND OF, WE JUST, IT'S AN OPEN QUESTION AS TO WHETHER THIS IS A WORTHWHILE CHANGE OR NOT, BUT AT THE, THAT WAS JUST TO GIVE YOU A SENSE OF WHAT WE WERE DISCUSSING WHEN WE WERE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHETHER TO ACCOMMODATE THIS REQUEST OR NOT. 
          THESE WERE THE CONSIDERATIONS WE WERE TALKING ABOUT. 
          COMMISSIONER FALCON. 
          YEAH. 
          I JUST WANTED TO CLARIFY COMMISSIONER BLANK STATEMENT THAT ALL OF THESE WERE BROUGHT TO VOTE, SO IT'S NOT JUST ONE OF THEM. 
          UM, BUT ALSO I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT, UM, THE NORTH YEAH. 
          NORTH BOUNDARY BEING RIVERSIDE, BECAUSE I SEE THAT THE REQUESTS PUT IT ALL THE WAY TO, UM, LADY BIRD LAKE. 
          SO I CAN APPRECIATE THAT. 
          MAYBE THERE'S NOT POPULATION THERE. 
          UM, BUT JUST WONDERING WHY THE DECISION WAS MADE TO MOVE THAT BOUNDARY. 
          UM, THERE, THERE IS, UH, A LOT OF CONDOS THERE AND APARTMENTS. 
          UH, IT'S THE SOUTH SHORE 
          [01:35:01]
DISTRICT. 
          UM, I BELIEVE HE CUT IT OFF AT RIVERSIDE IS BECAUSE THAT, UH, AREA BELONGS TO DISTRICT, UH, UH, TO THE, TO THE BTB 4 29. 
          SO I GUESS TO KEEP IT FOR 229 HOLE, WOULDN'T KEEP IT, UH, UP TO RIVERSIDE. 
          UM, THANK YOU. 
          UM, SO, UH, WHAT COMMISSIONER BLANK WAS REFERRING TO WAS OUR, UM, NON-FORMAL NOT CORUM, UH, DISCUSSION GROUP. 
          UM, THAT TIME WE MET WITH, UM, GEORGE CORVEL AND WE SORT OF WENT OVER THESE CHANGES AND, UM, COMMISSIONER FALCON VERY KINDLY SAT DOWN WITH, UM, SOME MEMBERS OF DISTRICT NINE DURING ONE OF OUR FORUMS AND, UH, WENT OVER SOME OF THE SUGGESTIONS THAT THEY HAD. 
          UM, SO FOR ME, THIS WAS SORT OF A BACK AND FORTH, UM, ISSUE, BUT I THINK IN THIS REGARD, BECAUSE OF THE CHANGES YESTERDAY, SHE HAS A DEVIATION FOR DISTRICT GATE. 
          UM, I STILL BELIEVE THAT, YOU KNOW, IN KEEPING TO, UH, VALUES IN THE CHARTER AND THE NAACP IS RECOMMENDATIONS, UM, THIS COULD BE A REALLY GOOD MOVE. 
          AND, UH, I THINK IT ALSO SENDS A GOOD MESSAGE TO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC THAT, YOU KNOW, MR. CORVEL, OUR ADMIN, CHRISTINE GRANADOS, AND EVERYONE HERE REALLY GOES THROUGH EACH AND EVERY COMMENT. 
          AND, UH, THEY STRIVE TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYONE'S OPINION IS TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT. 
          SO, UM, I DEFINITELY BELIEVE THAT SOMETHING LIKE THIS, AS AN EXAMPLE OF WHILE ALL THE CHANGES CAN BE FULFILLED, WE STILL TRY OUR BEST TO MAKE SURE ALL THOSE SECTIONS OF THE CHARTER ARE, UM, TAKEN INTO COP THINKING. 
          THANK YOU, COMMISSIONER CAMPBELL, COMMISSIONER BLANK. 
          YEAH. 
          THANK YOU, COMMISSIONER CAMPO FOR DOING A BETTER JOB OF EXPLAINING IT THAN I DID. 
          AND I WOULD ADD, YOU KNOW, IN, IN THE REQUEST TO MAKE THIS MOVE, WE WERE ALSO GIVEN TWO OTHER REQUESTS BY THE SAME NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION, AND WE REVIEWED THOSE VERY THOROUGHLY TOO, BUT ULTIMATELY THE POPULATION NUMBERS DID NOT WORK OUT TO ALLOW US TO CONSIDER THOSE AS VIABLE ALTERNATIVES, WHICH IS WHY WE WERE REALLY FOCUSED ON THIS ONE. 
          YEAH. 
          I'M IN SUPPORT OF THIS. 
          I THINK THAT, UM, YOU KNOW, WE'RE STAYING WITHIN VARIANTS. 
          I, I ACTUALLY LOOKED AT THIS FOR A LONG TIME. 
          UM, FROM THE MOMENT WE GOT THE REQUEST AND MR. HORRIBLE RAN THE NUMBERS, AND I FEEL THAT, AND I KNOW THAT WORK WAS ALSO DONE IN CONSIDERATION OF THE FACT THAT IT WOULD IMPACT ONE OF OUR OPPORTUNITY DISTRICTS. 
          AND I FEEL THAT IF WE STAY WITHIN VARIANTS AND WE, THE OPPORTUNITY TO STRENGTHEN OUR OPPORTUNITY DISTRICTS, THEN WE SHOULD BE, UM, IN FAVOR OF THIS MOVE. 
          THANK YOU, VICE CHAIR COULD SELL US. 
          YEAH, NO GREAT POINT FROM THE COMMISSIONER. 
          I JUST WANTED TO ADD MORE CONTEXT THERE FOR EVERYTHING THAT'S BEEN SHARED. 
          SO THE POPULAR, IF WE, IF WE DO ADOPT THIS CHANGE, THE POPULATION OF , WHICH WAS ALREADY AT THE LOWEST POPULATED DISTRICT IN OUR POLAR BURNOUT MAP WOULD SHRINK BY ANOTHER 1300 FOLKS, UH, RESIDENTS. 
          UM, BUT THAT WOULD AS MISS, AS COMMISSIONER HARDING POINTED OUT, THAT WOULD INCREASE, UM, THE VOTING AGE POPULATION OF THE HISPANIC POPULATION, WHICH THIS IS KIND OF AN OPPORTUNITY DISTRICT FOUR, UM, BY 0.2%, OUR DEVIATION WOULD GO UP FROM ABOUT 6.5% TO NEAR 8%, BUT IT WOULD STILL BE WITH BELOW THE 10% ALLOWED DEVIATION. 
          SO IF WE'RE INCREASING BY 0.2 AND AN OPPORTUNITY DISTRICT, AND OUR DEVIATION STAYS, YOU KNOW, BELOW EIGHT, EVEN BELOW WHERE IT'S AT RIGHT NOW AT 8.8, I THINK THAT I WOULD SUPPORT THIS CHANGE TO COMMISSIONER SCHNEIDER. 
          I WOULD JUST LIKE TO REITERATE WHAT OTHERS HAVE SAID, AND I SUPPORT MOVES THAT STRENGTHEN OPPORTUNITY DISTRICTS AND FOR ALL WHO HAVE ALREADY SAID THAT. 
          THANK YOU. 
          IS THERE ANY FURTHER DEBATE? THE QUESTION IS ON THE ADOPTION OF THE MOTION THAT WE MODIFY THE PRELIMINARY BOUNDARIES DISTRICTS THREE AND NINE TO MOVE, UM, DISTRICT, I'M SORRY TO MOVE THE FOLLOWING GEOGRAPHICAL AREA FROM DISTRICT THREE TO DISTRICT NINE EAST RIVERSIDE DRIVE TO THE NORTH PARKER LANE TO THE EAST OLTORF TO THE SOUTH AND SOUTH 35 TO THE WEST. 
          THOSE IN FAVOR OF THE MOTION. 
          RAISE YOUR HAND. 
          THOSE OPPOSED. 
          SAY NO. 
          OKAY. 
          THE AYES 
          [01:40:01]
HAVE IT. 
          AND THE MOTION IS ADOPTED NOW THAT DOES BRING US TO THE END OF THE LIST THAT WE HAVE PREPARED. 
          UM, I'M ALSO READY TO HEAR ANY OTHER MOTIONS THAT WE MAY PROPOSE THAT CAME UP TONIGHT OUT OF THIS CONVERSATION. 
          I KNOW THAT, UH, COMMISSIONER FEL COTTON DID MENTION, UM, ONE VTD THAT DOES NOT HAVE POPULATION, BUT MAY NOT HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN THE ORIGINAL MOTIONS, UM, FOR DISTRICT EIGHT. 
          SO, UM, CAUSE YOU'RE FALCON, DID YOU WANT TO MAKE THAT MOTION? SURE. 
          I MOVED THAT WE, UH, MOVE THE 10 BLOCKS OF VOTER TABULATION DISTRICT 360 4, WHICH MY NOTE SAID HAD A POPULATION OF 53 W UM, FROM DISTRICT 10 BACK TO DISTRICT EIGHT. 
          SO FOR CONTEXT, ACCORDING TO MY NOTES IN ONE SECOND, LET'S MAKE SURE WE HAVE THAT AS A FULL MOTION BEFORE WE TALK ABOUT IT. 
          YES. 
          DO WE HAVE A SECOND? SECOND? OKAY. 
          SO IT'S BEEN MOVED AND SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER HARDENED THAT, UM, REMOVE THE 10 BLOCKS OF VTD 360 4 FROM DISTRICT 10 TO DISTRICT EIGHT COMMISSIONER FALL CALL HIM. 
          WOULD YOU LIKE TO SPEAK TO YOUR MOTION? YES. 
          SO, UH, WHEN MR CORWELL PREPARED OUR PRELIMINARY MAP, UM, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT HE MOVED WAS 10 BLOCKS OF VOTER TABULATION DISTRICT 360 4, WHICH HE, AT THAT TIME SAID HAD A POPULATION OF 53 AND HE MOVED IT FROM 10 TO EIGHT WE'VE SINCE DECIDED THAT WE WOULD LIKE IT TO BE IN DISTRICT EIGHT. 
          AND ACCORDING TO MY NOTES, WE DID NOT OFFICIALLY MOVE THAT BACK TO DISTRICT EIGHT. 
          SO JUST TO COVER OUR BASES, I WOULD LIKE TO, UM, HAVE THIS MOTION SO THAT WE DON'T NEED TO REVISIT THAT IN THE FUTURE. 
          MR. CORBELL, UM, PGD 360 4 ON YOUR MAP APPEARS TO BE IN DISTRICT EIGHT, UM, FROM WHAT YOU HAD UP ON THE SCREEN EARLIER. 
          SO I JUST TO MAKE SURE, UM, WHAT IS IN THAT MAP, YOU KNOW, IF, IF THERE WERE THE POTENTIAL OF SOME OTHER VTD THAT WE DIDN'T VOTE ON, UM, IF IT'S INCLUDED IN THE MAP, LIKE, WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS THERE? I GUESS IF THERE WERE A SIMILAR CIRCUMSTANCE TO THIS ONE THAT CAME UP AGAIN. 
          SO IT SOUNDS LIKE THIS VTD WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE ORIGINAL LOTIONS FOR WHAT PRECINCTS WOULD BE PUT INTO DISTRICT EIGHT. 
          IF THAT, IF A SIMILAR CIRCUMSTANCE WERE TO COME UP AGAIN, WHERE THERE IS A VTD THAT WE DID NOT MOTION TO PUT IN A DISTRICT, BUT IT'S INCLUDED ON YOUR MAP, WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS OF THAT? UH, WELL, THE MAP, UM, WHAT I'M DOING IS I'LL MAKE SURE THAT THE MAP IS EVERYTHING THAT WE PASS A LITTLE MAP ON A MAP THAT'LL SHOW, RIGHT? SO LET'S SAY THAT COMMISSIONER FALCON HAD NOT CAUGHT VTD 360 4. 
          I WOULD IMAGINE THAT BEFORE WE CERTIFY THIS MAP, YOU WOULD GO THROUGH ALL OF OUR MOTIONS AND MAKE SURE THAT EVERY CHANGE ON THE MAP HAS BEEN COVERED. 
          AND IF THIS, IF SOMETHING LIKE THIS WERE TO COME UP AGAIN, UM, IT WOULD PROBABLY BE AT OUR NEXT MEETING THAT WE RUN AND KIND OF CLEAN ALL THAT UP. 
          YES. 
          OKAY. 
          THANK YOU, COMMISSIONER BLANK, I THINK, JUST TO MAKE SURE I UNDERSTAND YOU CORRECTLY. 
          I THINK, YOU KNOW, THE ISSUE HERE IS THAT IF, WHEN WE APPROVE THE MAP, AS WE DID THE PRELIMINARY MAPS, ULTIMATELY WE'RE SIGNALING OUR INTENT WHETHER OR NOT WE HAD MADE A SPECIFIC MOTION. 
          CAUSE I THINK THE ISSUE HERE KIND OF COMES BETWEEN WHEN WE TALK ABOUT BTD SOMETIMES WE'LL USE GEOGRAPHIC BOUNDARIES SOME OTHER TIMES, AND THAT CREATE A LITTLE BIT OF A CONFLICT. 
          I'M NOT AGAINST THIS NOTION. 
          I THINK JUST TO CONFIRM THAT OUR INTENT IS TO INCLUDE THESE IN DISTRICT DATA'S EASY AND THERE'S NO REASON TO HAVE ANY SORT OF CONFUSION BETWEEN THOSE TWO THINGS. 
          BUT ULTIMATELY WHEN WE TAKE A VOTE ON THE MAP, AS WE DID LAST TIME, WE'RE SAYING, THIS IS THE MAP AS IT LAYS, BUT ARE NOW, UM, SEVEN YEARS AGO. 
          WHEREAS THERE WAS ACTUALLY  REFLECTIVE THE MAP. 
          SO YOU'LL BE COVERED I THINK. 
          YEAH, I GUESS IN A SIMILAR VEIN THAT I THINK THAT'S WHAT WE'RE ALL ASKING, RIGHT? SO LIKE IF WE DIDN'T MAKE A MOTION, BUT IT SOMEHOW 
          [01:45:01]
GOT ON THE MAP AND YET WE APPROVED THE MAP, WHICH ONE STANDS, I MEAN IN A PERFECT WORLD, THEY MATCH, BUT AS WE JUST SAW, THEY MAY NOT MATCH. 
          SO DO WE HAVE, MAYBE MR. RICHARDS COULD WEIGH IN ON THAT. 
          I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING. 
          UM, WHEN HE COMES BACK INTO THE ROOM, WE CAN ASK HIM. 
          SO, UM, APOLOGIES BACK TO YOUR MOTION, COMMISSIONER FALCON. 
          UM, SO YOU WANT TO MOVE AND, AND TO CONFIRM, UM, CAN YOU EXPLAIN HOW YOU GOT THE 10 BLOCKS THAT WAS ON MR. CORVEL'S PRESENTATION WHEN HE FIRST PRESENTED THE, UM, PRELIMINARY, THE FIRST FIRST MAP, UM, HIS POWERPOINT PRESENTATION, IT INCLUDED THAT MR. CORBELL, COULD YOU CONFIRM THAT, UH, THERE ARE JUST 10 BLOCKS THAT WERE INTENDING TO MOVE A VTD 360 4 INTO DISTRICT EIGHT. 
          AND I I'M ASSUMING THAT THOSE ARE THE 10 BLOCKS THAT ARE PART OF THE CITY OF AUSTIN. 
          NO, I, I, I DON'T, BUT LET ME SEE IF I CAN FIND IT. 
          THANK YOU. 
          MADAM CHAIR, WOULD IT BE SIMPLER TO JUST STATE THEIR INTENT IS TO MOVE ALL OF, UH, VTD 360 4 THAT LIES WITHIN THE CITY OF AUSTIN FROM WHICHEVER DISTRICT. 
          THE OTHER DISTRICT ARE TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S IN THE EIGHT. 
          SO THE NUMBER OF BLOCKS THAT MAY ENCOMPASS MORE, WOULD YOU LIKE TO MAKE AN AMENDMENT, UH, COMMISSIONER FALCON? WOULD YOU ACCEPT A FRIENDLY AMENDMENT TO YOUR MOTION? OKAY. 
          YES, I WILL. 
          SO, UH, MY FRIENDLY AMENDMENT TO YOUR MOTION IS THAT IN LIEU OF USING THE TERM 10 BLOCKS, WE WOULD USE THE TERM ALL A FEE TD 360 4 THAT LIES WITHIN THE CITY OF AUSTIN WILL, UH, BE, UH, MOVED TO DISTRICT EIGHT. 
          WE HAVE A SECOND. 
          OKAY. 
          SO IT IS MOVED AND SECONDED TO STRIKE OUT THE WORDS 10 BLOCKS AND INSERT THE WORDS. 
          UM, I'M SORRY TO STRIKE OUT THE WORDS. 
          10 BLOCKS OF BTDS 360 4 AND INSERT THE WORDS ALL OF THE T D 6, 360 4, THAT LIES WITHIN THE CITY OF AUSTIN. 
          UM, SO THOSE IN FAVOR OF STRIKING OUT THE WORDS, MOVE 10 BLOCKS, FEET OF VTD 360 4, AND INSERTING THE WORDS, ALL A VT 360 4, THAT LIES WITHIN THE CITY OF AUSTIN CHAIRMAN SAY I, YES, GO AHEAD. 
          I GUESS MY CONCERN IS IS THAT IF TECHNICALLY WE MOVED THOSE 10 BLOCKS AND THEN NOW WE'RE MOVING MORE THAN THAT. 
          I GUESS IT DOESN'T MATTER. 
          IT'LL COME OUT IN THE WASH AND JUST GOING THROUGH, UM, SAY I OKAY. 
          THOSE OPPOSED SAY NO. 
          SO THE QUESTION IS NOW ON THE MAIN MOTION, UM, AS AMENDED, UH, MOVE ALL OF VTD 360 4 THAT LIVES WITHIN THE CITY OF AUSTIN FROM DISTRICT 10 TO DISTRICT EIGHT, IS THERE ANY FURTHER DEBATE? OKAY. 
          THE QUESTION IS ON THE ADOPTION OF THE MOTION THAT WE MOVE ALL OF VTD 360 4, THAT LIES WITHIN THE CITY OF AUSTIN FROM DISTRICT 10 TO DISTRICT EIGHT, THOSE IN FAVOR OF THE MOTION, RAISE YOUR HAND, THOSE OPPOSED, SAY NO, THE AYES HAVE IT. 
          AND THE MOTION IS ADOPTED. 
          ARE THERE ANY OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE MAP THIS EVENING? JUST A REMINDER OF THIS IS, UM, INTENDED TO BE THE LAST NIGHT THAT WE WILL MAKE CHANGES TO THE MAP EXCEPT IN THE UNLIKELY EVENT THAT THERE WAS SOME GRAVE OVERSIGHT THAT WE HAVE TO CORRECT FOR. 
          OKAY, EVERYBODY. 
          WELL, UM, WE DID IT, UM, WE'RE GOING TO TAKE A BREAK. 
          THE MEETING STANDS FOR ASSESSED FOR 10 MINUTES. 
          [01:50:30]
UM, IS YOUR MICROPHONE ON, SIR? THANK YOU SO MUCH. 
          THE FIRST CHANGE WE MADE WAS TO THE, UM, UM, DISTRICT ONE AND MOVE THE LYNDON JOHNSON. 
          SENATOR, LET ME GO AHEAD AND SHOW YOU. 
          THIS IS THE, THIS IS THE AREA THAT IS, UM, UM, KEATON, UH, DEADMAN, UH, MAIN ROAD. 
          AND THAT GOES INTO, UM, DISTRICT NUMBER ONE. 
          IT HAS NO POPULATION. 
          WE MADE SOME CHANGES HERE. 
          SO FIRST, FIRST CHANGE WE MADE WAS WE MOVED THIS VTD AND, UM, INTO A, FROM NINE AND 10 PTD TO 14, AND THEN WE WENT OVER AND WE MOVED THIS AREA THAT IS SOUTH OF, UH, ENFIELD AND EAST OF, UM, UM, UH, I, WE, ONE IN NORTH OF LAMAR, WE MOVED THAT INTO, UM, UM, DIS DISTRICT NINE, THE SECOND. 
          [01:55:11]
OKAY. 
          THEN WE LOOKED AT THIS AREA THAT IS SOUTH OF THE RIVER, AND WE SPLIT THAT AT, UM, HIGHWAY 360, THE, UH, AREA THAT IS WEST OF HIGHWAY 360, GOES INTO 10. 
          AND, UH, AND THE AREA, UM, EAST OF 360 GOES INTO EIGHT. 
          AND SO IT WOULD END UP LOOKING LIKE THIS AND I BELIEVE THAT'S, THOSE ARE THE CHANGES THAT WE MADE. 
          THERE WERE A COUPLE MORE, SIR. 
          UM, ALL OF THOSE ARE CONSISTENT WITH WHAT WE VOTED ON TONIGHT, BUT THERE WAS ALSO, UM, JUST A VERY SMALL ONE, THE MOVE WITH PEACE PARK AND THEN ALSO, UM, CUSHNER HARDENS, I'M SORRY. 
          YES. 
          THE PEACE PARK, UM, WAS, IS PART OF THAT, THAT MOVE THAT IN. 
          UM, WE DID. 
          AND, UM, UM, THIS IS BETWEEN THREE AND NINE AND IN THE INTERIM PLAN, UH, THIS, UH, THIS AREA HERE HAD BEEN IN DISTRICT THREE AND, UM, YOU MOVE IT BACK INTO A DISTRICT NINE. 
          IT HAD BEEN IN DISTRICT NINE UNDER THE ORIGINAL PLAN. 
          AND THAT IS PART OF, YES, THAT'S PART OF 4.0, AND THOSE WERE, THOSE ARE THE CHANGES THAT YOU MEAN. 
          AND THE PLAN COMES IN, UM, AROUND 8%, TOP TO BOTTOM DEVIATION, WHICH, UM, I BELIEVE PROBABLY AS WELL WITHIN ANYTHING THAT A COURT WOULD LOOK AT, PARTICULARLY WITH ALL THE JUSTIFICATIONS YOU HAVE FOR EACH ONE OF, UM, DEVIATIONS. 
          THANK YOU FOR SHARING THAT, MR. CORBELL. 
          UM, I'M ALSO WONDERING IF YOU CAN TAKE US THROUGH, UH, THE POPULATIONS OF EACH DISTRICT AS THEY STAND NOW. 
          UM, AS WELL AS, UM, WHAT BTDS ARE BEING SPLIT, WHICH, WHICH ONES ARE BEING SPLIT, UM, WITH, WITH THIS MAP. 
          UM, TELL ME, YOU WANT ME TO, YOU WANT ME TO, UM, YOU WANT ME TO, UM, GIVE THE NUMBER OF BTDS THAT ARE SPLIT AND HOW THEY'RE SPLIT? YES. 
          WHATEVER WAY MAKES THE MOST SENSE TO YOU TO SHARE THAT. 
          I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE REVIEW, UM, THOSE SPLITS BEFORE WE MAKE THIS A DECISION. 
          I SENT YOU AN EMAIL, WHICH I, WHICH I HAD THAT ON. 
          I'M GOING TO PULL THAT UP JUST A MINUTE. 
          [02:00:24]
OKAY. 
          OKAY. 
          YOUR PLANS SPLITS WELL, FIRST OF ALL, AUSTIN EXISTS IN FOUR, IN FOUR COUNTIES. 
          IT EXISTS IN TRAVIS COUNTY. 
          OBVIOUSLY THERE'S A SMALL PART IN BASTROP COUNTY, A FAIRLY LARGE PART IN WILLIAMSON COUNTY, AND THEY HAVE A FAIRLY SMALL PART IN HAYES COUNTY. 
          SO AMONG THOSE FOUR COUNTIES, YOUR PLAN SPLITS, UM, 110 PRECINCTS. 
          UM, ANY OF THOSE ARE AS A RESULT OF CITY LIMIT LINES. 
          IN OTHER WORDS, THOSE ARE, THOSE ARE PART OF THE SWISS CHEESE THAT INVOLVES THE CITY OF AUSTIN. 
          UM, 22, THERE ARE 22 SPLITS THAT ARE EXACTLY THE SAME WAY THEY ARE IN THE CURRENT PLAN. 
          UM, UH, THERE ARE, EXCUSE ME, THERE ARE FIVE SPLITS THAT ARE IN THE CURRENT PLAN THAT ARE ALSO IN YOUR PLAN, BUT THE SPLITS ARE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT, BUT THEY'RE ON THE SAME OF THE SAME, UM, UH, VOTING PRECINCT. 
          AND THERE ARE THREE NEW VOTING PRECINCTS. 
          SO YOU'VE MINIMIZED THE NUMBER OF, UH, VOTING PRECINCTS AND, UM, YOU'VE UM, UM, ACTUALLY, ACTUALLY I THINK WHAT HAPPENED TONIGHT ACTUALLY PUT A VOTING PRECINCT TOGETHER. 
          SO, UH, AND I'LL CHECK THAT TO MAKE SURE, BUT THIS WAS MY ANALYSIS OF WHAT I THOUGHT YOU WERE GOING TO ADOPT TONIGHT. 
          UM, SO YOU, YOU, AS A, AS BEST I CAN TELL YOU HAVE ONLY THREE NEW SPLITS AND ALL THE REST OF THE SPLITS EITHER ARE REQUIRED OR WERE THERE BEFORE YOU STARTED. 
          THANK YOU. 
          AND CAN YOU ALSO SHARE THE POPULATION BY DISTRICT? UM, YES. 
          UM, YES. 
          UM, NUMBER NUMBER ONE IS 94,010. 
          NUMBER TWO IS 98,000 1 65. 
          NUMBER THREE IS 91,533. 
          THAT'S THE SMALLEST NUMBER FOUR IS 94,936. 
          FIVE IS 97,457. 
          UH, SIX IS 95,000 409 7 IS 95,077. 
          EIGHT IS 99,000 ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY FIVE NINE IS 98,949 AND 10 IS 97,196. 
          AND THAT MAKES FOR, I DON'T HAVE IT HERE, BUT IT MAKES FOR ABOUT, UH, 8%, TOP TO BOTTOM DEVIATION, WHICH IS WELL WITHIN, UM, I THINK ANYTHING A COURT WOULD, UM, WOULD CONSIDER. 
          UM, SO THE, AND THE DISTRICTS ARE VERY COMPACT AS COMPACT. 
          I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'VE LOOKED AT THE STATE PROPOSED PLANS, BUT THE STATE PROPOSED PLANS ARE NOT NEARLY AS COMPACT AS YOUR PLANS. 
          UM, AND, UM, UM, YOUR PLANS HAVE GONE THROUGH EXTENSIVE, EXTENSIVE, EXTENSIVE, UM, RE MOLDING BASED ON COMMUNITIES OF INTEREST AND ON TESTIMONY. 
          I'VE NEVER SEEN A PLAN ADOPTED ANYWHERE IN 50 YEARS OF DOING THIS, THAT SPEND AS MUCH TIME LOOKING AT, UM, PROBABLY THE THINGS THAT COUNT AN AWFUL LOT TO EVERYDAY PEOPLE AND COUNT LESS TO POLITICIANS. 
          SO CONGRATULATIONS. 
          THANK YOU, MR. CARVILLE. 
          THAT'S AN HONOR TO HEAR YOU SHARE THAT PERSPECTIVE, DR. 
          LAND'S YES, 
          [02:05:06]
YES. 
          CAN YOU SPEAK INTO A MICROPHONE? SO WE HAVE THAT ON RECORD, IF WE'RE READY TO MOVE ON THE COMMISSIONER SCHNEIDER SECONDS. 
          OKAY. 
          WELL, THIS IS EXCITING. 
          IT HAS MOVED AND SECONDED THAT WE ADOPT THE FINAL MAP AS PRESENTED. 
          IS THERE ANY FURTHER DEBATE? OKAY. 
          THE QUESTION IS ON THE ADOPTION OF THE MOTION THAT WE ADOPT, THE FINAL MAP, UM, OF THE NEW CITY OF AUSTIN CITY COUNCIL DISTRICTS AS PRESENTED THOSE IN FAVOR OF THE MOTION. 
          RAISE YOUR HAND. 
          OKAY. 
          THOSE OPPOSED SAY NO. 
          YEAH. 
          HIS HABIT AND EMOTION IS ADOPTED. 
          CONGRATULATIONS, EVERYONE. 
          OKAY. 
          I FEEL LIKE THERE SHOULD BE SOME BALLOONS COMING DOWN FROM THE CEILING FOR US RIGHT NOW. 
          ALL RIGHT. 
          UH, SO, UM, WE DO HAVE A LITTLE MORE BUSINESS ON OUR AGENDA FOR THIS EVENING. 
          THE NEXT ORDER OF BUSINESS IS TO BE UPDATES FROM WORKING GROUPS AND SUBCOMMITTEES FIRST COMMISSIONER DEMPSEY WITH THE SOCIAL MEDIA PRESS RELEASE WORKING GROUP. 
          UH, THANK YOU. 
          UM, I DON'T HAVE ANY MAJOR UPDATES OTHER THAN, UM, OUR MEETING TONIGHT WAS ON FACEBOOK LIVES. 
          YOU READ. 
          UM, AND OTHER THAN THAT, WE'RE DOING THE SAME.

          THANK YOU. 
          THANK YOU.

          SO THOSE ARE STILL RUNNING AND NOW WE'RE GOING TO UPDATE THEM TO, UM, BUILD AWARENESS SO THAT PEOPLE CAN KNOW TO TAKE A LOOK AT THIS VERSION OF THE MAP. 
          EXCUSE ME. 
          THANK YOU. 
          NEXT VICE-CHAIR CONSOLE IS WITH UPDATES FROM THE PUBLIC FORUM WORKING GROUP. 
          THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR. 
          CONGRATULATIONS EVERYONE FOR GETTING TO THIS POINT, WE APPROVED A FINAL MAP.

          WE WILL BE AT THE DELL JEWISH COMMUNITY CENTER PRESENTING THE SPINAL MAP TO THE PUBLIC. 
          THANK YOU MANAGER. 
          THANK YOU. 
          NEXT UPDATES FROM THE FINANCE SUBCOMMITTEE. 
          UM, I KNOW THAT COMMISSIONER MORRIS, UM, HAD SENT IN A FEW NOTES. 
          UM, I ACTUALLY CAN SHARE THOSE. 
          HE WANTED TO SHARE THEM, BUT, UM, HE COULDN'T BE WITH US TONIGHT, SO I WILL SHARE THEM ON HIS BEHALF. 
          HE SAID, BASED ON MY TRACKING, WE FINISHED OUT FISCAL YEAR 2021 AS FOLLOWS FIRST, WE SPENT 78,000 TOTAL, UH, 52% OF OUR $150,000 BUDGET WITH ANOTHER 5,000 ENCUMBERED RELATING TO OUR MAPPING SPECIALIST FOR A TOTAL OF 83,000 OF ESTIMATED EXPENSES. 
          THIS IS 67,000 UNDER BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 2021. 
          AND THEN SECOND, ONLY 2000 OF THE 150,000 HAS BEEN SPENT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2022 RELATED TO ICRC. 
          UM, AND THIS WAS FOR A KUT. 
          ALRIGHT, SO THAT WAS EVERYTHING FOR THE FINANCE. 
          UH, FINALLY UPDATES FROM THE FINAL REPORT SUBCOMMITTEE. 
          I'M JUST GONNA MENTION SOMETHINGS. 
          NOW WE HAVE A PRODUCT AGAIN, CONGRATULATIONS. 
          AND SO THIS IS KIND OF MOVING THE FINAL REPORT ALONG, YOU KNOW, WITHIN THE NEXT, UH, COUPLE OF WEEKS, YOU ALL SHOULD EXPECT TO HEAR FROM, UM, MYSELF AND COMMISSIONER HARDEN, BASICALLY, YOU KNOW, PROBABLY GIVEN YOU THE BIOS 
          [02:10:01]
AND YOU ALREADY SENT US. 
          I'M ALSO GOING TO INCLUDE IN THAT PACKAGE TO BIOS FROM THE PREVIOUS FORUM. 
          I'LL JUST NOTE THAT WHEN YOU LOOK AT THOSE BOTTLES, ONE THING I'LL SAY OR POINT OUT THEY'RE A LITTLE BIT MORE PERSONAL THAN THE ONES THAT WE CERTAINLY THAN THE ONES THAT I WROTE. 
          I KNOW YOU WROTE, I'LL TELL YOU, YOU CAN WRITE WHATEVER BODY YOU WANT, BUT I THINK THE REASON THEY DID THAT WAS JUST POINT OUT THE FACT THAT YOU ALL ARE ALSO LIKE IN ADDITION TO WHO YOU ARE, PROFESSIONALLY, EVERYTHING ELSE THAT YOU'RE NORMAL PEOPLE, YOUR CITIZENS WHO LIVE IN THIS COMMUNITY, WHICH YOU ALL ARE, I CAN VOUCH FOR THAT. 
          SO YOU CAN THINK ABOUT IT IN THAT CONTEXT, BUT FEEL FREE TO USE WHATEVER YOU WANT. 
          WE JUST WANT TO CONFIRM THAT THE BIO THAT YOU'RE HAPPY WITH IS THE ONE THAT GOES IN THE FILE REPORT. 
          UH, ADDITIONALLY, YOU KNOW, THERE'S DISTRICT OVERVIEWS AND THOSE REPORTS THAT YOU HADN'T LOOKED AT THE FINAL REPORT YET. 
          I'D SUGGEST TAKING A LOOK AT IT, JUST TO SEE THAT, I MEAN, THE PREVIOUS FINAL REPORT, I'M GOING TO SHARE THOSE DISTRICT OVERVIEWS WITH EACH OF THE DISTRICT REPRESENTATIVES TO MAKE SURE THAT THIS STILL COHERES THE MARKERS OF INTEREST OR SO MARKERS OF INTEREST AND NOTHING SHOULD BE REMOVED. 
          IT'S THERE THAT'S SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE ADDED BASED ON EITHER THE WORK WE'VE DONE OR THE WAY THAT THE CITY HAS CHANGED OVER THE LAST 10 YEARS. 
          AND THEN FINALLY, THE FINAL REPORT LAST TIME ALSO INCLUDES STATEMENTS OR FROM THE COMMISSIONERS, UH, WRITTEN STATEMENTS. 
          I BELIEVE THAT'S PROBABLY OPTIONAL KNOWN AS REQUIRED TO WRITE A STATEMENT, BUT IF YOU'D LIKE TO WRITE A STATEMENT ABOUT HOW PROUD YOU ARE OF THE PROCESS OR REALLY WHATEVER YOU WANT, I WILL SEND ALONG THE STATEMENTS THAT WERE SENT THAT WERE PART OF THE REPORT LAST TIME SEPARATELY, BUT WE'RE GOING TO MAKE THAT SPACE AVAILABLE IF PEOPLE WANT TO WRITE STATEMENTS TO INCLUDE IN THE FINAL REPORT. 
          SO YOU SHOULD BE HEARING FROM US IN THE COMING WEEKS ON THAT. 
          AND THAT'S WHAT WE GOT. 
          THANK YOU, COMMISSIONER BLANK. 
          THE NEXT ORDER OF BUSINESS IS TO SEE HOUSEKEEPING. 
          UH, I WILL START WITH JUST SAYING, UH, TO REITERATE A COUPLE OF POINTS WE'VE ALREADY HEARD, JUST MARK YOUR CALENDARS FOR THE THREE REMAINING FORUMS ON OCTOBER 16TH, 18TH, AND 20TH, AND ESPECIALLY MARK YOUR CALENDARS FOR OCTOBER 27TH WHEN WE WILL CERTIFY THE MAP, UM, AND THAT WILL REQUIRE ALL OF YOUR SIGNATURES. 
          UM, SO WE'LL WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYBODY IS HERE IN PERSON AND, UH, AFTER THE MAP HAS BEEN CERTIFIED, WE ARE DONE, UH, WE WOULD LIKE, UH, ALL OF ALL COMMISSIONERS TO BE PRESENT TO SIGN THIS AGAIN. 
          UM, SO I KNOW THAT THERE ARE SOME COVID CONCERNS IF WE NEED TO SET THIS UP OUTSIDE OR WHATEVER THE CASE MAY BE. 
          UM, JUST, YOU KNOW, FOR THAT, UH, WE CAN TRY TO WORK SOMETHING OUT, BUT I'M HOPING THAT WE CAN ALL JUST KIND OF GET IN AND OUT, UM, YOU KNOW, AT LEAST FOR THAT PURPOSE. 
          AND THEN, UM, WE WILL WANT TO TAKE A GROUP PHOTO TO BE USED IN THE FINAL REPORT. 
          SO JUST COME DRESSED FOR THAT PHOTO AS YOU SEE FIT. 
          AND, UM, WE'LL TAKE IT, UM, AT THE SAME TIME THAT WE SIGN THE CERTIFICATION. 
          UM, AND I ECHO WHAT KUSHNER AND BLANK SUGGESTED, WHICH IS COME PREPARED WITH SOME FINAL REMARKS. 
          WE MIGHT WANT TO SHARE THOSE OUT LOUD AND THEN JUST ALSO HAVE THAT RECORDED SO THAT WE COULD ADD IT TO THE FINAL REPORT, IF YOU'RE COMFORTABLE WITH THAT. 
          UM, SOME AT LEAST SOME, YOU KNOW, VERSION OF THAT. 
          UM, IF, IF YOU HAVE A 10 MINUTE REMARK, MAYBE WE WILL PUT THE WHOLE BIG OF THE FEDERAL REPORT, BUT YOU KNOW, YOU NEVER KNOW. 
          UM, SO, UH, LET ME JUST FINISH WITH SAYING, UM, I KNOW THAT COMMISSIONER KAMBO HAS WORKED ON GETTING THESE ROBERT'S RULES OF ORDER BOOKS TO US. 
          SO, UM, I WANTED TO PASS THE MIC TO HER, UM, JUST BECAUSE SHE, I KNOW SHE HAS AN UPDATE FOR EVERYONE REGARDING THESE BOOKS AND ABOUT ROBERT'S RULES, GENERALLY, COMMISSIONER CAMPBELL. 
          UM, THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR. 
          UM, THIS IS VERY BRIEF BECAUSE I KNOW WE'RE SORT OF RECEIVING THESE TOWARD THE END OF OUR TIME. 
          UM, BUT JUST TO SAY THANK YOU TO ROBIN HARVEY, WITH THE CITY WHO REALLY TOOK OVER AND MADE SURE THAT THEY MADE IT HERE AFTER WHOLE FIASCO OF WITH AMAZON, UM, AS WELL AS TO CHRISTINA AND MATT AND EVERYONE HAS BEEN CC'D AND SORRY FOR ANNOYING YOU WITH THE BACK AND FORTH.

          THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR FOR ALLOWING US TO HAVE THIS. 
          UM, BUT, UH, I GUESS I'LL JUST BRING UP FOUR CHAPTERS THAT I GUESS MOST OF THE STUFF THAT WE'VE BEEN DISCUSSING, ANYTHING THAT I BROUGHT UP, JUST SO YOU KNOW, LIKE THIS IS WHERE THE INFORMATION HAS COME FROM IN CASE YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR LIKE OUR LAST MEETING. 
          UM, SO THE FOREMOST IMPORTANT CHAPTERS, I THINK WOULD BE CHAPTER THREE, WHICH IS HANDLING MOTIONS AND THAT CHUNK THAT STARTS ON PAGE 18. 
          UM, AND THEN CHAPTER FIVE AMENDMENTS. 
          I KNOW THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WE'VE DEFINITELY GONE BACK AND FORTH WITH. 
          WE DON'T REALLY UNDERSTAND AT TIMES, BUT CHAPTER FIVE AMENDMENTS STARTS ON PAGE 38 AND I CAN ALWAYS PINPOINT EXACT STUFF. 
          IF ANYONE HAS A QUESTION. 
          UM, AND FOR THE LAST TWO, THIS CHAPTER SEVEN, HOW CAN A GROUP CHANGE ITS MIND? I THINK THAT'S A VERY IMPORTANT SECTION FOR, YOU KNOW, OUR FINAL MAP SESSION. 
          AND THEN 
          [02:15:02]
FINALLY, I'LL, UH, I'LL PUT UP A CHAPTER 11, HOW ARE RULES ENFORCED AND HOW ARE THEY SUSPENDED STUFF LIKE MAKING A POINT OF BORDER, UM, THAT'S PAGE 89, BY THE WAY, THE ORDER, UM, OR, UM, PARLIAMENTARY INQUIRY. 
          THOSE ARE LIKE ALL IMPORTANT PARTS OF THE MEETING IN CASE SOMETHING COMES UP AND YOU WANT TO ADJUST THE CHAIR. 
          SO I THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR, AND, UH, I GUESS HAPPY READING TO EVERYBODY, IF YOU WANT TO READ THIS AND, UM, I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER QUESTIONS AS BEST AS I'M ABLE, I CAN PASS THEM ONTO THE CHAIR SO WE CAN MAKE SURE EVERYONE UNDERSTANDS BEFORE THE LAST SESSION. 
          THANK YOU, COMMISSIONER LANDS, MADAM CHAIR. 
          AND THIS IS PRIMARILY FOCUSED AT WHAT COMMISSIONER CAMPBELL HAS DONE. 
          THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR, UM, FOR WORKING THIS OUT AND NOT GIVING UP, UH, WHEN YOU RAN INTO THE ROAD BLOCK, UH, AND I'D LIKE TO HAVE A BOOK COMMISSIONER SNYDER, I'M CHAIR TWO QUESTIONS. 
          THE MEETING ON OCTOBER 27TH WILL BE HERE IN THIS ROOM, NOT IN THIS ROOM, IT'LL ACTUALLY BE USED FOR VOTING AT THAT TIME. 
          UH, MY UNDERSTANDING IS, BUT, UM, HANG TIGHT ON, ON WHERE THE LOCATION IS. 
          UM, WE'RE ACTUALLY TRYING TO SEE IF THERE'S A POSSIBILITY THAT WE DO THE 27TH MEETING, UM, AT CITY HALL. 
          SO WE CAN TAKE THE PHOTO THERE RATHER THAN, AND NUMBER TWO, THE STATEMENTS THAT, UM, COMMISSIONER, UM, JOSH MENTIONED, OR ARE THOSE THE QUESTIONS THAT I RECEIVED FROM, UM, CHRISTINE GRANADOS TO WHICH I SENT HER SOMETHING, NO, NO, THIS IS NOT SOMETHING WE'VE GONE OVER YET. 
          THIS, THESE WOULD JUST BE FINAL REMARKS.

          CAN I JUST, UM, MAKE A REQUEST TO PLEASE LET US THE SOCIAL COMMITTEE KNOW AS SOON AS THE MASTER POSTED IN WHERE JUST THAT'S OUR, OF COURSE OUR NUMBER ONE QUESTION. 
          UM, AND I FEEL LIKE SOME TIMES WE GET SO BUSY THAT WE FORGET TO LET EVERYONE KNOW WHERE THEY ARE. 
          SO IF WE COULD JUST MAKE A POINT OF THAT, AND THEN ALSO, BECAUSE THIS IS BEING BROADCAST, THAT IT'LL PROBABLY BE, I DON'T KNOW, A COUPLE OF DAYS BEFORE WE'RE ABLE TO POST THEM. 
          SO JUST TO PUT THAT OUT THERE TO, YEAH, ABSOLUTELY. 
          IT WILL TAKE A COUPLE OF DAYS TO GET ON THE WEBSITE AND, UH, WE'LL MAKE SURE THAT CHRISTINE GRANADOS GETS WITH YOU AS SOON AS THAT HAPPENS SINCE SHE'S RUNNING THAT ASPECT OF, OF, UM, OF THE SITES. 
          UM, AND YOU KNOW, COMMISSIONER, KAMBO JUST THANK YOU FOR THIS.
