We good? >> We're good. >> Are we recorded? >> Yes, sir. >> Good evening everybody and uh welcome to the city of Park's first council meeting for March. Um Mr. Chapel, would you uh
please be so kind as to um >> Hang on a second. Everybody stand up. Hold on a second. I was going to get uh um Mr. Reagan to do the the uh >> Yeah, >> absolutely. Let us pray. Heavenly Father, we come to
you today asking for your guidance, wisdom, and support. Help us to engage in meaningful discussion. Allow us to grow closer closer as a group and nurture the bonds of our community. We also ask that you oversee the men and women that are in
harm's way in Jesus name. Amen. >> Amen. >> I aliance to the flag the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands. One nation under God,
indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. >> Okay, folks, please be seated. Um, we don't have a lot on the agenda tonight. So, um, if you would please call the role. >> Yes. >> Miss Barrow
>> here. >> Miss Bford >> here. >> Mr. Chapel >> here. >> Mr. Haney not here. Mr. Mayor Kelly, >> you're here. Um, if there's anybody in the audience that would like to come to the podium except for Marie. Yes, dear. How are you?
>> That's okay. Speak loudly. >> Everybodych on Drive. And you're you're providing drinks and breakfast after, right? >> Excellent. >> Thank you. >> Yes, sir. >> Mayor Kelly, just a question for you.
First of all, I think most of the citizens are now and I think I'm making the statement correctly. Is that right? >> That is correct. It's 100% property of the city of Parker. >> I know I know you've got a lot of
poss. >> Yeah. you wouldn't mind just letting us know is that a shortterm project, longterm project, just kind of an iffy project. >> Well, I'm almost reluctant to say anything about anything until I can make sure it's going to happen because
between then and that day, they'll say I was going to use scrap to fill in the the pond there or do away with something the silliness that came out of the last thing. Yes. Not a real dock. Um, if we
can have a floating dock like uh like is that's at uh Lake Drive. Not a permanent dock that stays rigid, but I'd like to have one that rides up and down. And I've talked to a gentleman over there about the possibility that if I was able
to obtain the one I was after that he would be able to install it for me because it would be a benefit to him. So, the answer is yes. We're going to have one. Uh the date I cannot say uh the sooner the better because at least
for me when I used to put my boat there which I'm scared to now but when I used to put my boat in there I was always worried that the gel coat would get tore up on the on the concrete. So if you slide it into the water, you can bump it up against the dock while you park your
car or some of the people that use that dock drive down there and then put their boat in the water and then one person will stay with their boat and the other person go home, park the vehicle because there's not a lot of room to park, which is whatever. But yes, to answer your question, I'd like to have one. I don't
have a date of when that will be. I do have some people lined up to install it. Um, does that help any? >> It does and and I respect all that. You have to be pretty agile to launch your boat there. >> Yeah,
>> we we got elderly parents that we have to drive our boat somewhere else because of the dock, right? >> Be very nice. Very nice. So, if you can imagine in your mind, >> the dock would ride up and down with the tide. >> So, if you go the I've talked to Mr.
Slan about the possibility right there where the tree is. I think he may have took it down now. The dead tree that was to the left of the boat landing, concrete slab there, the the dock would be shackled to that slab and then two poles in the water and it would ride up
and down on there. But one of the things that slowed me down is a couple of folks there have asked if they can have uh dock extensions put on their on their on their property. And it would be difficult to have a pier for people to
launch if if they have boats parked in like this with the back of the boat blocking the ramp. So, uh, something still work. >> Thanks for thanks for your answer. Thanks for the >> Yes, sir. Thank you.
>> Anybody else want to move on? Okay. Very good. So, um, we only have, uh, one item on the agenda tonight. for the that's why Mr. uh Sloan is not here because I think we can probably
handle this. Um it's a discussion of 5405 Fleming Street. Uh Mr. Slan, will you come to the podium please? Should there be any questions, council, in your packages, you will see um
uh a drawing um of uh a possible food what may look like if we had a food court there. And you know, I've been trying to get uh food court vehicles in Parker. That's just very very difficult to get. And I don't know why they won't come here. Mr. Chapel has reached out to
people. I've reached out to people and we've not been very successful, but um is that what you thought it would be? >> Yes, that's what we're talking about. >> Yeah. And so, um,
>> it just has a shadow of the major coming in six months. But right now, all we're talking about that's >> this is a temporary only until he's able to um until he's able to get his uh everything lined up for something more
permanent in the future. And uh what he's asking is that we give him permission for uh temporary food truck development. And if you have any questions, Mr. Someone could answer those but just it'd be basically what is it four
>> all so we can't regulate food trucks I've talked to planning you have any questions >> but all we have put this proposal through as a minor because all I have the authority is to grant a temporary power and temporary
only authority the city has right now on this project there's nothing in the land development or for the engineers to review this project against. So that's why I'm bring allowing them a temporary with temporary
bathrooms to conduct business. We were told that the major development order should be coming in approximately six months or so. That would be a whole total review and have something to >> at that time the planning council would review it and send it to us. Right. Correct. >> As of right now, this is just very
conceptual. >> Mr. Reagan, do you have anything you'd like to add, sir? Are you golden? Have you seen it? >> Yep. State outranks us. >> Okay. Sounds great. >> Currently, right now, the city doesn't have any
>> regulations one way or the other. Yeah. Yeah. I think we've been following the state rules more than anything else. >> To surrounding cities right now, they're kind of the same way. State is handling all the food truck. >> Yeah. Sounds good. Okay. So, in order to approve this uh
>> Okay. It's right now. It's just a propos. >> I think we should allow them to have more if more people show up. It would be kind of unfair. >> I think so. not see what there >> one way or the other
>> if they want that property as long as they're selfcontained. >> Yeah. >> Right. >> Right. Right. The only thing when the major comes in is that will include facility
that will requ property ours. >> No, it's private property. >> All private property. >> Okay. We put up a power or whatever. >> No. >> Hold on a second. We got a motion on the
floor. >> We have a motion to approve. I need a second. >> No. No, you can't vote. Well, it's done to you, Mr. Chapel. >> Hold on. We got a We got a motion on the floor. So, it's done to you, Mr. Chapel.
>> The other thing I got is, you know, we do have businesses, food, business, restaurants, and I don't know how much I would take away from from them restaurants.
Anybody could put anything they wanted there. Uh you could build uh hundred restaurants there and it wouldn't matter. This is America. We have a democracy. We you know say we cannot stop any food truck from being set
anywhere. >> Okay. We can't regulate. >> Even though Kate can't vote because of her family relationship, that doesn't mean she can't receive the gavvel if I pass it to vote. >> Mr. I would
only that mom and pop sandwich. They're just getting started. >> She actually came in and and talked about it. She is She's not opposed to it. >> No, she's absolutely not opposed to it.
>> That's what she said. >> She feels there's more than enough business to go around. We again say we have a motion on the floor. >> No. Okay. I'm going to pass the gavl and make a motion to second. So Kate, it's
you. You just hold on to it. It's my right to make a second. I make a second. >> Call the clerk for role. >> Miss Barrow. Yes, >> Mr. Chapel.
>> Mayor Kelly. >> Yes, >> that's it. Thank you very much. Drop the >> Thank you very much. Okay, folks. Um, that's the last item. Anybody else got anything? All right. Very good. Thank you for your time. I appreciate you.
Um, see you tomorrow, Mr. Someone. Can we do something about the rats?
