(PUD-22-2) (Item was recommended for denial by the Planning and Zoning Commission by a vote of 7-0-0) (Tabled from the meeting on March 28, 2023).]

WE HAD WE HAD OPENED A PUBLIC HEARING A FEW WEEKS AGO, AND SO IT'S STILL OPEN.

IT'S STILL OPEN. AND IN FACT, WE ACTUALLY HAVE THE THRESHOLD NEEDED TO APPROVE.

BUT BECAUSE OF A SINGLE ABSENCE, IT WOULD HAVE TO BE A UNANIMOUS DECISION IN FAVOR.

SO WHAT I TYPICALLY RECOMMEND IS IN THOSE CIRCUMSTANCES, ASKING THE APPLICANT SPECIFICALLY WHETHER THEY'D LIKE ACTION TONIGHT OR WHETHER THEY'D LIKE FOR US TO TABLE UNTIL WE HAVE A FULL COUNCIL PRESENT.

OKAY. AND IS THE APPLICANT HERE? DO YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT WE'RE SAYING? WE'LL GO AHEAD AND PRESENT IT TODAY.

PRESENT TONIGHT. OKAY.

OKAY, THEN LET'S GET STARTED.

WES, I GUESS YOU'RE UP.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU.

COUNCIL. THIS IS A REQUEST FOR A PUD AMENDMENT.

PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT AMENDMENT.

IT'S THE PROPOSED IS A.

IT HELPS IF I TURN IT ON.

THE PROPOSED IS A HOTEL SITE LOCATED AT THE CORNER OF FORUM DRIVE AND STATE HIGHWAY 121.

[00:10:07]

THE SITE IS BEING PROPOSED IN THE EXISTING BEDFORD FORUM PUD.

THE PROPOSED PLAN IS A INDEPENDENT HOTEL, 49 ROOMS, ABOUT 24,000FT².

AND THE PURPOSE OF THE REQUEST TONIGHT IS TO THE ORIGINAL PUD APPROVED THE USE THE PURPOSES TO LOOK AT THE SITE PLAN TO MAKE SURE THE SITE PLAN IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE COMMUNITY'S VISION.

SO IT'S KIND OF A TWO PART PROCESS WHEN YOU'RE IN A PUD AND WE'RE IN THE SECOND PART RIGHT NOW, IF THAT MAKES SENSE.

THE AGAIN, THE REQUEST, WHEN WE LOOK AT THESE TYPES OF REQUESTS, WE LOOK AT SURROUNDING LAND USES, THAT BEING TWO HOTELS, FULL SERVICE HOTELS ON THE NORTH AND WEST SIDE, COMMERCIAL AND OFFICE TO THE EAST AND MOVING ON ADJOINING PROPERTY OWNERS.

AS YOU ALL KNOW, WE NOTIFY EVERYONE WITHIN 200FT OF THE SITE.

WE ALSO PLACE A SIGN ON THE PROPERTY.

IN THIS PARTICULAR CASE, WE DID RECEIVE WE NOTIFIED FOUR ADJOINING PROPERTY OWNERS.

WE RECEIVED TWO NOTICES WITHIN THE 200 FOOT, WHICH DID TRIGGER A IT'S MORE THAN 20% LAND AREA OPPOSITION.

SO IT DOES TRIGGER THAT SUPERMAJORITY THAT THE CITY ATTORNEY WAS TALKING ABOUT.

WE ALSO RECEIVED NON RESPONSES FROM THE COMMUNITY OUTSIDE THE NOTIFICATION AREA REGISTERING OPPOSITION TO THE REQUEST.

TONIGHT. YOU'RE CONTINUING YOUR PUBLIC HEARING.

YOU'RE TAKING ACTION ON EITHER APPROVING APPROVING CONDITIONS TABLE OR DENY THE.

ALSO, IT'S IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDED DENIAL BY A 7 TO 0 VOTE.

PRIMARILY, THEIR CONCERNS WERE THE LIMITED USE OF THE HOTEL AND THEY THOUGHT IT WAS TOO SMALL OF A SITE FOR THE HOTEL.

AND SINCE YOU'VE KIND OF GOT A DOUBLE WHAMMY HERE TONIGHT, SINCE YOU'VE GOT THE 20% REGISTERING OPPOSITION WITHIN THE 200 FOOT TRIGGERING THE SUPERMAJORITY, BUT ALSO SINCE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDED DENIAL, YOU'VE GOT THAT TRIGGERING THE SUPERMAJORITY REQUIREMENT AS WELL.

SO I CAN ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE.

AND SO THAT WILL MEAN WE'LL NEED AT LEAST FIVE OF US TO VOTE IN OPPOSITION TO WHAT THAT WILL BE.

ALL SIX OF THEM, ALL SIX OF US HAVE TO VOTE YES.

ALL RIGHT. SO IS THE APPLICANT HERE AND DO THEY WANT TO SAY SOMETHING OR WOULD THEY LIKE TO PRESENT.

SO. GOOD EVENING, MAYOR, COUNCIL MEMBERS AND THE STAFF.

THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TODAY AND GIVING US THE OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE TO PRESENT THE PROPOSED HOTEL.

COULD YOU GIVE US YOUR NAME? YES. MY NAME IS [INAUDIBLE] AND I'M FROM COLLEYVILLE, TEXAS.

SO BEFORE WE START, I THINK DURING THE THE PLANNING AND ZONING MEETING, THE PROJECT WAS MISLABELED AS A DIFFERENT BRAND. AND I THINK THAT'S ONE OF THE REASONS WHY IT WAS DENIED.

SO I WOULD LIKE TO PRESENT IT THE WAY WE INTENDED.

SO FIRST, I WOULD LIKE TO START WITH A QUICK OVERVIEW OF THE PROJECT.

THE HOTEL WILL BE A BOUTIQUE HOTEL.

IT WILL CONSIST OF 49 INTERIOR CORRIDOR ROOMS. THE INTERIOR DESIGN OF THE HOTEL IS INSPIRED BY MODERN ARCHITECTURE TO ATTRACT YOUNG TRAVELERS, BUSINESS TRAVELERS AND AIRPORT TRAVELERS.

THE HOTEL WILL PROVIDE AMENITIES SUCH AS HOT BREAKFAST FITNESS CENTER, SIMILAR TO BRANDED HOTELS BY HILTON AND MARRIOTT.

THE CONCEPT OF BOUTIQUE HOTEL GIVES US THE FREEDOM TO DESIGN THE HOTEL AND THE GUEST ROOMS UNIQUE TO THE LOCATION.

THE YOUNG TRAVELERS PREFER UNIQUE EXPERIENCES WHEN THEY TRAVEL, WHICH IS WHY THE BOUTIQUE HOTEL MARKET IS EXPECTED TO GROW 14.7% IN YEAR 2023, AND WE INTEND TO CAPITALIZE ON THIS TREND.

OUR GOAL IS TO PROVIDE OUR GUESTS A LUXURIOUS EXPERIENCE ON BUDGET.

WE CAN MAKE THIS POSSIBLE BY CONTROLLING THE OVERHEAD COSTS, WHICH ARE UNAVOIDABLE WITH BIGGER AND FRANCHISED HOTELS.

WE INTEND TO PROVIDE AMENITIES WHICH MOST GUESTS FIND USEFUL WHEN TRAVELING.

THESE PICTURES ARE INSPIRATION OF OUR INTERIOR DESIGN OF THE HOTEL.

AND THIS IS AN ACTUAL HOTEL.

AND THESE ARE PICTURES FROM THAT HOTEL.

[00:15:05]

SO A LITTLE BIT ABOUT US.

WE HAVE DEVELOPED MANY HOTELS IN DFW AREA.

MOST OF THE HOTELS WE HAVE DEVELOPED ARE FRANCHISE HOTELS WITH AFFILIATION WITH MARRIOTT, HILTON, IHG AND OTHER MAJOR BRANDS.

THIS WILL BE OUR FIRST ATTEMPT FOR IN THE BOUTIQUE HOTEL SEGMENT.

SO FOR COMPARISON, WE HAVE IDENTIFIED SIMILAR PROPERTIES HERE IN TEXAS AND OKLAHOMA AND CHOSE THEM BASED ON THE NON AFFILIATION WITH BRANDS AND THE HOTEL SIZE.

AS NOTED HERE, THE ADR, WHICH IS THE AVERAGE RATE PER NIGHT AND THE REVIEWS ARE VERY SIMILAR WITH BRANDED HOTELS.

AND THE LAST IS IMPACT.

THIS HOTEL WILL BRING IN THE LOCAL COMMUNITY.

WE EXPECT TO CREATE A TOTAL OF 11 FULL TIME, THREE PART TIME AND MANY TEMPORARY JOBS.

THE HOTEL WILL ADD ABOUT $140,000 IN TAX REVENUE ANNUALLY AND LAST.

A PORTION OF THE MONEY SPENT BY THE GUEST WILL INDIRECTLY BENEFIT THE HOTEL, THE LOCAL COMMUNITY.

I THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO PRESENT OUR PROJECT.

I HOPE YOU FOUND IT INFORMATIVE.

I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE.

OKAY, COUNSELOR, DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? COUNCILMAN STEVES.

I HAVE A QUESTION. THE HOTEL YOU JUST SHOWED THE PICTURES, WERE THEY HOTELS YOU ACTUALLY DEVELOPED, OR ARE THEY JUST COMPARISON? THEY'RE JUST COMPARISONS.

OKAY, SO THESE ARE ALL BOUTIQUE HOTELS WHICH ARE EITHER CLOSE TO THE AIRPORT AS THIS ONE WILL BE, OR THEY'RE YOU DON'T HAVE ANY ASSOCIATION WITH THEM, RIGHT? NO, NO ASSOCIATIONS WITH THEM.

I HAVE A QUESTION, TOO, SIR.

DID YOU PRESENT THIS TO THE P&Z? NO. SO THIS IS ALL NEW INFORMATION? YES. AND THAT'S WHY I WANTED TO BRING IT UP AT THE BEGINNING OF THE PRESENTATION WHEN IT WAS PRESENTED DURING THE P&Z MEETING.

IT WAS MISLABELED, AS I THINK, A SCOTTISH INN, AS A SCOTTISH INN, WHICH IS ALSO A BRAND.

BUT WE DIDN'T INTEND FOR IT TO BE A BRANDED HOTEL.

OKAY. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? COUNCIL. OKAY.

SINCE THIS IS A PUBLIC HEARING, DOES ANYONE WANT TO COMMENT FROM THE AUDIENCE? SINCE THERE'S NO COMMENT FROM THE AUDIENCE, DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR WES COUNCIL? NO. OKAY.

OKAY. WE EITHER NEED TO HAVE A DISCUSSION OR WE NEED A MOTION.

MISS DAWKINS.

THANKS, MAYOR PRO TEM.

I MOVE TO DENY AN ORDINANCE FOR A LOT 3A1 AND LOT THREE B BLOCK ONE BEDFORD FORUM ADDITION LOCATED AT 3029 AIRPORT FREEWAY BEDFORD, TEXAS AMENDING THE BEDFORD FORUM PLANNED UNIT DEVELOPMENT PROVIDING A DETAILED DEVELOPMENT SITE PLAN. THE PROPERTY IS GENERALLY LOCATED NORTHWEST OF FORUM PARKWAY AND THE AIRPORT FREEWAY IS COMMONLY KNOWN AS 3029 AIRPORT FREEWAY PUD 2020 2-2.

THANK YOU, MISS DAWKINS. IS THERE A SECOND? UH MR. STEVES A SECOND.

OKAY. MR. STEVES IS SECONDED THE MOTION.

NOW WE SHALL VOTE.

SO. THIS IS A MOTION TO DENY.

SO YOU WOULD VOTE YES IF YOU IF YOU AGREE WITH THE MOTION.[INAUDIBLE] OKAY, IT'S UNANIMOUS.

AND WE GOT YOUR SUPERMAJORITY.

GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR PLANS WITH THE HOTEL IN ANOTHER LOCATION.

WE APPRECIATE YOUR INTEREST IN BEDFORD, BUT IT'S JUST NOT GOING TO HAPPEN IN BEDFORD.

THANKS SO MUCH. THANK YOU.

THANKS FOR THE OPPORTUNITY. UH HUH.

OKAY. NEXT ON THE AGENDA IS, I BELIEVE, ANOTHER P&Z THING.

LET'S SEE. GO BACK TO THE TOP.

OKAY. THIS ONE IS ANOTHER NEW BUSINESS.

CONSIDER A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER.

IS THAT CORRECT? YEAH. NO.

FIRST, WE'RE NUMBER FIVE PUBLIC HEARING AND CONSIDER AN ORDINANCE TO REZONE THE PROPERTY DESCRIBED AS LOT THREE BLOCK ONE PARKWOOD VILLAGE EDITION LOCATED AT 201 HARWOOD ROAD,

[5. Public hearing and consider an ordinance to rezone the property described as Lot 3 Block 1 Parkwood Village Addition, located at 201 Harwood Road, Suite 130, from Heavy Commercial (H) to Heavy Commercial/Specific Use Permit/Banquet and Meeting Facilities. (SUP-23-1) (Item was recommended for approval by the Planning and Zoning Commission by a vote of 7-0-0).]

SUITE 130 FROM HEAVY COMMERCIAL H TO HEAVY COMMERCIAL SPECIFIC USE PERMIT BANQUET AND MEETING FACILITIES.

[00:20:01]

SUP 20 3-1 ITEM WAS RECOMMENDED FOR APPROVAL BY PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION BY A VOTE OF 7 TO 0.

THANK YOU MAYOR PRO TEM COUNCIL MEMBERS.

THIS IS AN SCP REQUEST FOR AN EVENT, CENTER AND BANQUET FACILITIES.

THE ZONING ORDINANCE REQUIRES ANY THIS ANY TYPE OF FACILITY LIKE THIS TO BE TO GET AN SCP NO MATTER THE ZONING DISTRICT.

SO THIS IS A CITYWIDE REQUIREMENT.

THE JUST A LITTLE BIT OF INFORMATION ABOUT THE LOCATION.

AS ALREADY STATED, IT'S OFF HARWOOD ROAD IF YOU'RE FAMILIAR WITH THE SHOPPING CENTER, IT'S IN THE CURRENT LOCATION OF THE CLOCK REPAIR AND ANTIQUE SHOP.

THE OUTCOMES PROVIDE KIND OF A LAYOUT OF WHAT THEY'RE PROPOSING FOR THEIR SITE TO LOOK LIKE.

ON THE INTERIOR.

IT IS ABOUT A 6000 SQUARE FOOT SITE DEDICATED TO THE EVENT CENTER PLAN IS TO HOST EVENTS ON WEEKENDS UNTIL THEY'VE LIMITED THEMSELVES TILL MIDNIGHT ON SATURDAYS AND 8 P.M.

ON SUNDAYS. AGAIN, AS YOU ALL KNOW, SPECIFIC USE PERMITS WE LOOK AT TO DETERMINE IF THE SITE IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE PROPOSED USE. IN THIS CASE, THE SITE IS DEVELOPED.

SO IT'S REALLY WE'RE LOOKING AT THE EXISTING USES IN THE SURROUNDING AREA.

STAFF PLACED A SIGN ON THE PROPERTY FOR NOTIFICATION.

WE ALSO NOTIFIED 40 PROPERTY ADJOINING PROPERTY OWNERS.

THE UNIQUE THING ABOUT THIS SITE IS THAT THE IT IS REALLY ON OUR BORDER WITH CITY OF HEARST.

SO JUST FOR A POINT OF CLARIFICATION, WE ONLY NOTIFY THOSE THAT ARE IN THE CITY OF BEDFORD.

WE DID RECEIVE ONE RESPONSE IN OPPOSITION TO THE REQUEST.

THE THAT RESPONSE WAS PRIMARILY RELATED TO EXISTING CRIMINAL ACTIVITY OR POTENTIAL CRIMINAL ACTIVITY THAT THE RESPONDER THOUGHT THAT WAS HAPPENING IN THE ALLEY BETWEEN THE COMMERCIAL AREA AND THE ADJOINING RESIDENTIAL.

SINCE THAT TIME, I KNOW THEY'VE TALKED TO THE POLICE CHIEF AND THEY'VE CLARIFIED SOME OF THE ISSUES HAPPENING THERE.

JUST A LITTLE BIT OF BACKGROUND PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION CONDUCTED THEIR PUBLIC HEARING ON FEBRUARY 9TH.

THAT WAS TABLED BECAUSE OF A ICE STORM THAT WE BELIEVED AT THE TIME AFFECTED THE NOTICE.

AND SO WE WANTED TO GIVE PEOPLE MORE TIME.

SO WE NOTICED AND THEN ON MARCH 9TH, PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION RECOMMENDED APPROVAL WITH A CONDITION THAT TWO LICENSED POLICE OFFICERS BE ON SITE. DURING ANY OF THE RENTALS CAN ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.

YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? COUNCIL. OKAY.

MR COGAN. SO WITH AT THE P AND Z, THEY ADDED A CONDITION FOR IT.

YOU MIND MENTIONING AS TO WHY? AND THEY THE DISCUSSION THAT HAPPENED AT P AND Z, THAT THIS THEIR MAIN CONCERN WAS ALCOHOL AND THEY DID NOT ON THIS PARTICULAR ONE THEY DID NOT LIMIT IT TO JUST ALCOHOL. BUT REALLY THEIR MAIN CONCERN WAS ALCOHOL.

IF THERE WERE GOING TO BE ALCOHOL INVOLVED, THEY WANTED POLICE OFFICERS ON SITE.

AND SO THAT WAS WHY THE CONDITION CAME UP.

SO THE CONDITION IS FOR TWO POLICE OFFICERS ON SITE? THAT'S CORRECT. OKAY.

I JUST WANTED THAT CLARIFIED.

SURE. YOU ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? COUNCIL OKAY.

NOW WE'RE GOING TO OPEN UP THE PUBLIC HEARING.

AND IS THERE SOMEONE HERE TO SPEAK? I GUESS YOU'RE HERE TO SPEAK.

OKAY. COME RIGHT UP TO THE MIC AND GIVE US YOUR NAME, SIR.

SORRY, I'M NOT GOOD WITH THE DECORUM.

YEAH. I'M STEPHEN TODD.

I'M HERE WITH MY WIFE, GILDA AND MY LITTLE FOUR YEAR OLD.

AND AGAIN, FORGIVE THE DECORATIONS ANYWAY FOR A LITTLE TOYS HERE, BUT WE ARE BALLROOM SURGE.

SO WE'VE BEEN IN OPERATION IN DALLAS FOR 12 YEARS AND WE'VE NOTICED A GROWING NEED IN THE COMMUNITIES WE SERVE, ESPECIALLY IN THE GREATER DALLAS AREA.

I MEAN WITH THE WAY REPORTS OF NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS THAT HOUSING AFFORDABILITY IS GETTING WORSE AND WORSE FOR MANY PEOPLE AND PEOPLE DON'T HAVE A SPACE TO CELEBRATE LIFE. AND THAT'S THE NEED THAT WE LOOK TO FILL WITH OUR COMMUNITIES.

AND SO WE HOST MAINLY BIRTHDAY PARTIES AND BABY SHOWERS, BUT ALSO BAR MITZVAHS, EVEN WAKES FOR PEOPLE OF PAST RELATIVES, THINGS LIKE THAT.

BRIDAL SHOWERS, A LITTLE BIT ABOUT OUR BUSINESS.

WE DO UTILIZE CURRENTLY IN OUR DALLAS LOCATION ARMED SECURITY GUARDS WITH WITH KEVLAR VESTS AND EVERYTHING.

THEY COME IN AND CLOSE DOWN.

AND WE USE WE DO NOT LIKE TO USE SUBWOOFERS.

WE ONLY USE MID-RANGE SPEAKERS.

SO THE SOUND DOES NOT TRAVEL PAST THE WALLS.

YOU STEP OUTSIDE, YOU DO NOT HEAR A THING.

AND THEN YOU KNOW A LITTLE BIT ABOUT OURSELVES.

YOU KNOW, PROBABLY TOO MUCH INFORMATION.

BUT I AM A STAGE THREE CANCER SURVIVOR, COLON CANCER, AND, YOU KNOW, JUST A PROCLAMATION OF FAITH.

GOD PULLED ME OUT OF IT, AND I'M ETERNALLY GRATEFUL FOR THAT.

BUT I THINK THAT'S ABOUT IT.

BUT I'M OPEN TO ANY QUESTIONS YOU GUYS MAY HAVE.

OKAY. ANY QUESTIONS? COUNCIL.

OKAY. MR. PARKER. STEPHEN, I'M SORRY.

OH, NO.

[00:25:01]

I'M STEPHEN I'M STEPHEN, TOO.

JUST. I KNOW WE'LL HAVE YOU'LL HAVE SECURITY, BUT IT'S TENDS TO SPILL OVER INTO THE PARKING LOT.

AND WILL YOU HAVE REGULAR TRASH PICK UP AFTER YOUR EVENTS OR AND THAT IN THE PARKING LOT AND POLICE THE PARKING LOT AND YES SIR WE ARE VERY RESPONSIBLE NEIGHBOR.

YES, SIR. SORRY, I DIDN'T MEAN TO CUT YOU OFF.

I'M JUST NERVOUS. WE SO WE UTILIZE A COMMERCIAL CLEANING COMPANY AND WE'RE ALSO RESPONSIBLE NEIGHBORS IN THE SENSE THAT WE HAVE PEOPLE ON SITE BEFORE AND AFTER EVENTS TO MAKE SURE THE COMMUNITY IS PICKED UP.

ALL THE THE COMMON AREAS.

OUR NEIGHBOR IN DALLAS IS ACTUALLY MISSING A MAIN CLOTHING HEADQUARTERS THERE, OUR NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOR.

AND SO WE THEY HEARD NO COMPLAINTS FROM THEM.

THEY OPERATE MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY.

WE OPERATE IN THE WEEKENDS. AND IT'S THEIR EMPLOYEES THAT COME IN AND SEE NO EVIDENCE OF ANY EVENTS GOING ON.

THERE ARE A COUPLE ITEMS THAT I WAS HOPING TO BRING UP THAT SEE IF YOU'D BE OPEN TO OPEN TO RECONSIDER.

SO I KNOW COMMISSIONER OTTO BROUGHT UP THE NOTION FROM ONE OF THE NEIGHBORS WHO CAME UP AND EXPRESSED CONCERN.

SO WE DID SOME DIGGING.

WE ASKED THE TENANTS CURRENTLY, IS THERE ANY DISTURBANCES.

WHAT DO YOU KNOW? AND SO WE TALKED TO THE VOLCANO SPORTS BAR AND GRILL THERE.

AND THE RESTAURANT MANAGER DID MENTION THAT THERE USED TO BE A HOOKAH BAR THERE THAT COST A LOT OF DISTURBANCES.

BUT SINCE THEY ARE NO LONGER IN OPERATION, THEY HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING.

I KNOW THAT'S HEARSAY, BUT THAT'S ALL WE HAVE TO WORK WITH.

BUT AS FOR US, WE KNOW WE UNDERSTAND THE CONCERNS OF THE CITY OF BEDFORD TO HAVE AN ARMED PEACE OFFICERS.

BUT MY CONCERN IS TYPICALLY ABOUT THE SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND SUNDAY EVENTS.

THOSE ARE ALL BABY SHOWERS.

AND SO PEOPLE COME IN AND IT'S A VERY JOYOUS OCCASION.

AND THE MOTHER TO BE IS COMING IN WITH THEIR FRIENDS AND FAMILY.

THEY BRING THEIR KIDS AND IT'S A DIFFERENT KIND OF EVENT.

IT'S A REALLY HAPPY OCCASION.

AND SO I KNOW THEY WE FOLLOW ALL THE CITY OF BEDFORD NOISE ORDINANCES AND STUFF LIKE THAT.

BUT I'M JUST CURIOUS IF YOU'D BE OPEN TO CONSIDERING NOT HAVING TWO ARMED PEACE OFFICERS DURING THE SATURDAY AFTERNOON 11 TO 4 SLOT AND THEN OUR SUNDAY AFTERNOON EVENTS.

HOW WOULD WE DO THAT IF WE WERE TO BREAK IT UP? WOULD YOU STATE THE DIFFERENCE? THAT'S RIGHT. YOU'D STATE THE EXEMPTIONS TO THE OTHERWISE NEWLY INSERTED RULE, AND YOU JUST IDENTIFY THE PARAMETERS, THE TIME, PARAMETERS AND DATES BE SATURDAY AFTERNOON AND SUNDAY AFTERNOON.

YES. YES, MA'AM.

OKAY. AND I KNOW CHAIRMAN EMERY WAS HERE.

I DID. HE WAS HERE SOMEWHERE, BUT HE'S STILL BACK THERE.

I SEE HIM. I DIDN'T BRING IT UP DURING THE MEETING, AND I SHOULD HAVE.

I WAS JUST NERVOUS LIKE I AM NOW.

OKAY, WELL, LET'S JUST SEE WHAT THE PUBLIC COMMENT IS AND THEN WE'LL LET COUNCIL THINK ABOUT IT A LITTLE BIT WHILE WE'RE WAITING FOR PUBLIC COMMENT AND WE'LL GET BACK TO YOU. THANK YOU. OKAY.

THIS IS A PUBLIC MEETING, SO IF ANYBODY WOULD LIKE TO STAND UP AND TELL THEIR OPINION ON THIS FACILITY, WE'D BE INTERESTED IN HEARING IT NOW.

OKAY. IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE ANYBODY'S HERE.

OH, WES. CAN I ASK A QUESTION? SO YOU DID HAVE CONCERNS, BUT IT WAS REALLY ABOUT VAGRANCY BEHIND THE BUILDING.

YES. WHICH HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS? CORRECT. AND SINCE THAT TIME, LIKE I SAID, THE POLICE CHIEF, I BELIEVE, HAS TALKED TO THE NEIGHBORS IN THAT AREA AND THEY DID NOT EVEN SHOW UP FOR THE SECOND PUBLIC FOR THE CONTINUING PUBLIC HEARING THAT P&Z HAD.

SO I DON'T WANT TO SPEAK FOR THEM, BUT THEY DIDN'T SHOW UP.

SO I CAN ONLY ASSUME THAT EITHER THEY DIDN'T HAVE ANYTHING ELSE TO SAY OR THEY DIDN'T HAVE CONCERNS.

OKAY. MR. TODD SO WHEN YOU HAVE AN EVENT IN THE EVENING, WHAT TYPICALLY IS IT? OUR NIGHTTIME EVENTS ARE PREDOMINANTLY BIRTHDAY PARTIES, BUT WE DO HAVE THE OCCASIONAL BAR MITZVAH AND OTHER NIGHTS A LOT OF GRADUATION RETIREMENT PARTIES, TOO.

THERE IS ALCOHOL BEING SERVED.

WE DO FOLLOW ALL STATE LAWS, SO IT'S BRING YOUR OWN BEER.

NOTHING'S BEING SOLD, SO THEY JUST BRING IT AND BRING IT OUT OF THE EVENT.

AND THEN REGARDING SECURITY.

SO AGAIN, WE HAVE KEVLAR VESTS, SECURITY OFFICERS CURRENTLY IN OUR DALLAS LOCATION.

THEY COME THROUGH, THEY MONITOR PATROL, THE BUILDING, BUILDING AND GROUNDS.

AND THEN AT NIGHT THEY'RE THERE FOR THE EVENING AS THE EVENT KICKS OFF AND THEN LOCK UP THE DOORS AT NIGHT WHEN THEY LEAVE.

SO WHAT DO YOU DOES ANYBODY HAPPEN TO KNOW WHAT WAS THE THINKING OF TWO POLICE OFFICERS INSTEAD OF EVEN JUST ONE? IT WAS JUST I WAS VERY NERVOUS TO SAY ANYTHING THAT IT HE FELT LIKE IT WAS A REQUIREMENT AND I DIDN'T WANT TO SPEAK UP.

WE REALLY WANTED TO HAVE THE PERMIT PASSED, SO I FELT IT WASN'T MY PLACE TO SPEAK UP AND ASK FOR.

AND IN DALLAS, DO YOU PAY FOR TWO POLICE OFFICERS OR DO YOU JUST ONE? OR DO YOU EVEN HAVE A POLICE OFFICER, JUST A SECURITY GUARD? CORRECT. WE UTILIZE OUR SECURITY SERVICE.

AND SO THEY COME IN AGAIN WITH KEVLAR VESTS, GUNS.

AND THEY I MEAN, THEY FOR ALL INTENTS AND PURPOSES, THEY LOOK LIKE A POLICE OFFICER.

[00:30:04]

OKAY. IT WOULD IT WOULD BENEFIT US GREATLY IF WE DIDN'T HAVE THAT RULE, BUT.

OKAY. COUNSELOR, YOU WANT TO DISCUSS IT A LITTLE BIT? ROB. MR GAGLIARDI.

I MEAN, I WOULD. I MEAN, I WOULD SAY IF THERE WAS NO ALCOHOL BEING SERVED.

DO WE NEED A POLICE OFFICER? DO WE NEED A THAT MANY OF THEM? YOU KNOW, SO I'D BE I MEAN, I WOULD BE OKAY WITH AFTERNOON BABY SHOWERS WITHOUT ARMED GUARDS.

UNLESS YOU GET PRETTY WILD, IN WHICH CASE AND WE HAVE WE CAN WE CAN ACTIVATE SWAP PRETTY QUICK AND AND WE DON'T KNOW HOW THESE THINGS GO.

LIKE WE'RE OPEN TO CHANGING LIKE EVEN IF THERE WAS AN ISSUE IN THE FUTURE WE CAN ALWAYS BECAUSE WE STILL HAVE TO REAPPLY FOR AN SCP AS TIME GOES ON.

RIGHT? SO IF THERE IS EVER A NEED, WE CAN ALWAYS RECONVENE IF THE NEED ARISES.

AND DO YOU HAVE HARD LIQUOR OR JUST WINE AND BEER? JUST WINE AND BEER.

OH, WOW. OKAY.

SO, COUNCIL, WHAT DO YOU THINK? AND MISS DAWKINS? WELL, I'M THINKING THAT IT SEEMS LIKE THE PRIMARY CONCERN IS ALCOHOL OR NIGHTTIME EVENTS.

AND SO MAYBE US CONSIDERING THAT EVENTS THAT HAVE ALCOHOL THAT SOMEONE HAS TO HAVE A TABC LICENSE TO SERVE FOCUSING ON THIS.

I MEAN, IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU WILL TAKE CARE OF SECURITY SIMILAR TO YOUR DALLAS LOCATION, BUT THE WE ACTUALLY HAVE THIS ADDITIONAL CONCERN WITH ALCOHOL WHERE IT DOESN'T HAPPEN FOR EVERY EVENT. SO WOULD THAT BE A REASONABLE THING WHERE IF THERE'S ALCOHOL THAT SOMEONE HAS TO HAVE A TABC LICENSE TO SERVE IT? AND THAT'S SIMILAR TO OUR CITY EVENTS? YES, MA'AM. AND THAT'S PROBABLY GOING TO BE GOVERNED BY STATE LAW ANYWAY.

WE'RE GOING TO BE PREEMPTED FROM REGULATING THAT ASPECT, UNFORTUNATELY.

OKAY. SO BUT AS YOU ALL HAVE DISCUSSED, YOU COULD EXEMPT ALL EVENTS THAT WHERE THERE'S NO ALCOHOL BEING CONSUMED AND YOU COULD HAVE THAT BE THE MODERATING FACTOR RATHER THAN WHAT TYPE OF EVENT OR WHAT TIME IT OCCURS AS WELL.

YOU'VE ONLY GOT 80 ATTENDING.

YES, MA'AM. WE HOST MICRO EVENTS, SO.

YES, MA'AM. SO AD COUNCIL CONSIDER HAVING JUST ONE OFFICER OR STILL KEEP THE SUGGESTION OF TWO.

WELL, LET ME ASK WHAT CHANGED BETWEEN YOUR MEETING WITH THE P AND Z TO NOW? LIKE YOU AGREED TO DO WITH THE TWO OFFICERS AND I'M NOT BUT NOW PREDOMINANTLY NERVES.

I MEAN, AS SOON AS THEY BROUGHT IT UP, I JUST THEY ASKED IF I'D BE OPEN.

SO ORIGINALLY AND I'M PRETTY SURE CHAIRMAN EMERY CAN ATTEST TO THIS AS WELL, BUT WHEN COMMISSIONER OTTO BROUGHT IT UP, HE DID SAY, WOULD YOU OPEN TO HAVING A PEACE OFFICER? IT WAS ONE ORIGINALLY WHEN HE BROUGHT IT UP AND I SAID I WOULDN'T BE AGAINST IT.

AND HE SAID THIS WILL BE A REQUIREMENT TO GETTING YOUR PERMIT.

I SAID, YES, SIR, LIKE THAT.

AND THEN AT THAT POINT AND THEN ONCE THEY PUT THE MOTION, HE SAID, YES, I MOVE THAT WE HAVE ONE.

NO MAKE IT TWO PEACE OFFICERS.

AND THAT'S I'M PRETTY SURE THE NOTES WOULD REFLECT THAT.

OKAY. SO ANYBODY ELSE GOT ANY QUESTIONS? OKAY, MR. MARCO, CAN WE BRING IN THE CHIEF? CHIEF WILLIAMS. ASK.

CHIEF FOR AN EVENT OF 60 TO 80 PEOPLE.

IS ONE PEACE OFFICER ENOUGH TO HANDLE THAT? TYPICALLY, YES, THAT WE'VE WORKED EVENTS LIKE THIS PRETTY REGULARLY AT DIFFERENT RESTAURANTS AND WEDDING CHAPELS AND THINGS LIKE THAT WHERE YOU HAVE 80 TO 100 PEOPLE AND USUALLY ONE OFFICER IS ADEQUATE DEPENDING UPON HOW THE EVENTS GO.

SOMETIMES THESE THINGS MORPH INTO ESTABLISHMENTS THAT MAYBE IT WASN'T ORIGINALLY INTENDED TO.

AND WE HAVE TO INCREASE OUR NUMBER OF OFFICERS JUST TO KEEP THE PEACE THERE.

BUT TYPICALLY ONE FOR ABOUT 80 PEOPLE IS FINE.

AND I PREFER TO HAVE THE POLICE OFFICERS FROM BEDFORD THERE BECAUSE OUR GOAL IS TO POLICE THE WAY THAT THE CITIZENS OF BEDFORD WANT US TO POLICE AND MAINTAIN THE PEACE THAT WE WANT TO. AND SOMEONE FROM THE OUTSIDE IS NOT GOING TO HAVE THAT SAME FEELING AND THAT SAME COMMITMENT TO OUR COMMUNITY THAT WE WOULD.

SO. OKAY.

THAT HELPED A LOT. THANKS.

MR. ONE OTHER QUESTION NOW.

DO YOU HAVE A. WELL, THIS IS FOR THE APPLICANT.

DO YOU HAVE A TABC LICENSE? A TABC LICENSE? OR ARE YOU IS IT BYOB TO YOUR EVENT? CURRENTLY, OUR RULES ARE BYOB.

YES, SIR. BECAUSE NO, WE DO NOT ALLOW ALCOHOL TO BE SERVED SOLD IN THAT JUNCTURE.

SO THEY'RE ONLY ABLE TO PROVIDE IT TO THEMSELVES.

[00:35:02]

KIND OF LIKE BRINGING IT TO ANY EVENT.

OKAY. THANK YOU.

BUT YOU DO HAVE TO FOLLOW TABC RULES.

YES, MA'AM. WHERE? THERE'S SELF SERVING.

SO THEY HAVE TO SERVE THEMSELVES.

YES, MA'AM. OKAY.

YES. SO YOU DON'T HAVE ANYBODY WITH A TABC LICENSE ON SITE WHEN YOU HAVE AN EVENT? NO, MA'AM. BUT WE CAN PUT THAT IN PLACE TO ACTUALLY HAVE PART OF THE CONTRACT, TO HAVE PEOPLE BRING IN LICENSED BARTENDERS AND THEN FOLLOW TABC LAWS.

I THINK THAT MIGHT BE WISE.

OKAY. AND I THINK THAT'S THE WAY TO ACHIEVE WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR, WHICH IS TO JUST REQUIRE PROFESSIONAL BARTENDERS TO BE PRESENT.

IS ANYBODY WILLING TO MAKE A MOTION? WE'RE A LITTLE CONFUSED HERE.

WELL, ON THE DISCUSSION.

OH, WAIT, ONE MORE THING.

MR PRO TEM. SO? SO WE ARE THINKING THAT IF IT'S A DAY EVENT, NO ALCOHOL BEING SERVED.

YES, SIR. THAT WE'RE GOING TO ALLOW THEM NOT TO HAVE A PEACE OFFICER BE GREAT EVENTS AT NIGHT, PERIOD.

THERE'S GOT TO BE A PEACE OFFICER, WHETHER THERE'S ALCOHOL OR NOT ALCOHOL.

I THINK IT'S BEST TO ASSUME THAT THERE WOULD BE AN.

ON THE ERA OF CAUTION.

YES. AND THEN ALSO THAT IF WE START SEEING THAT ONE OFFICER IS NOT ENOUGH AND WE MAY REQUIRE YOU IN THE FUTURE TO A SECOND.

IS THAT FINE, BRIAN? YES, SIR. YES.

SO, IN FACT, YOU COULD SAY THAT EVENTS UP TO 80 PEOPLE REQUIRE ONE OFFICER, AND ANYTHING IN EXCESS OF THAT REQUIRES TWO OFFICERS.

OKAY. WHAT'S THE OCCUPANCY RATE THERE? I THINK THERE'S ONLY 80 PEOPLE TOTAL OCCUPANCY ANYWAY.

OKAY. I THINK I NEED TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING.

THANK YOU. OKAY, NOW I'M TRYING TO DO THIS.

STEP ON STEP.

I NEED A MOTION AND.

[INAUDIBLE] MAYOR PRO TEM.

I MOVED TO APPROVE AN ORDINANCE TO REZONE THE PROPERTY DESCRIBED AS LOT THREE BLOCK ONE PARKWOOD VILLAGE ADDITION LOCATED AT 201 HARTWOOD ROAD, SUITE 130.

HEAVY COMMERCIAL TO HEAVY COMMERCIAL SPECIFIC USE PERMIT BANQUET AND MEETING FACILITIES.

SCP 23.1 WITH THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS THAT THERE'LL BE ONE LICENSED POLICE PEACE OFFICER ON SITE AND THAT A LICENSED BARTENDER FOR ACTIVITIES WITH ALCOHOL.

OKAY AND THAT'S ONLY IN THE EVENING.

OR IS THAT ALL THE TIME, PERIOD? OKAY. OKAY.

SOUNDS LIKE. NO, EXCEPTION.

OKAY. THAT'S THE MOTION.

IF THERE'S NO ALCOHOL SERVED, WE DON'T REQUIRE IT.

CORRECT. THE CONDITIONS ARE ONE LICENSED PEACE OFFICER AND A LICENSED BARTENDER IF ALCOHOL IS PRESENT.

OKAY, SO OTHERWISE, YOU'RE CLEAR.

OKAY, I HAVE A SECOND.

OKAY. MR COGAN SECONDED.

AND I GUESS WE'RE GOING TO VOTE.

IT'S UNANIMOUS.

WELCOME TO BEDFORD.

THANK YOU SO MUCH, SIR.

OKAY. ITEM NUMBER SIX, CONSIDER A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER OR HIS DESIGNEE ENTER INTO AN AGREEMENT WITH ADELE CONSTRUCTION INCORPORATED UTILIZING THE

GOOD EVENING. GOOD EVENING, MAYOR.

PRO TEM AND COUNCIL.

THE ITEM ON YOUR AGENDA IS FOR AN INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY OF HURST FOR THE HIGH DENSITY MINERAL BOND, WHICH IS A STREET PRESERVATION TREATMENT.

OKAY. IN THE SADC EXCUSE ME, THE STREET IMPROVEMENT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION STRATEGIC PLAN, ONE OF THE LONG TERM GOALS WAS TO INCLUDE IS TO CONSIDER EXPANDING THE MENU OF TREATMENTS FOR THE STREET MAINTENANCE PROGRAM.

IF YOU'LL RECALL LAST FISCAL YEAR WE COMPLETED A TRIAL APPLICATION OF THIS HIGH DENSITY MINERAL BOND, H.R.

FIVE. IN SEVERAL NEIGHBORHOODS.

THE FEEDBACK WE RECEIVED WAS POSITIVE AND THE APPROVED FOR BE BUDGET FOR THIS FISCAL YEAR INCLUDES ANOTHER ROUND OF NEIGHBORHOODS.

[00:40:02]

SO THIS IS THE CITYWIDE MAP SHOWS THE NEIGHBORHOODS THAT ARE PLANNED FOR THIS CURRENT FISCAL YEAR.
