CALL TO ORDER at 5:30 PM by Chairman Richard Dziewit
Commissioner Richard Dziewit called Kathy Woodlee to introduce new staff.
Kathy Woodlee stated we just have a couple new faces that you'll be seeing at the meetings. So I just
wanted to give them a quick intro. Of course we lost AJ. He didn't die, but he did retire. So thanks for
his twenty plus years of service. But we have an able replacement for AJ, we've got Scott Morehouse,
but he goes by Bull. So it's the last time you'll hear us call him Scott, he is our new representative from
PD. And he's bringing passion to it. And we're really excited to have him as part of the team. We also
have in our engineering department Lee Harris; he is a senior engineer. He started with the city in
September, October, one of those autumn months. He’s coming from a few different places, but most
recently Nebraska. But he's got a good background in traffic. He's been a city engineer previously.
He's going to help out with all of our efforts also. And Serena's still here, she's going to be the main
presenter. And Brian and I aren't going anywhere but just wanted to let you know about these two new
folks. So, thanks for having us. Thank you very much. And welcome aboard. We really appreciate
you.

ROLL CALL
HEARING OF RESIDENTS
Jay Starr 9835 Mulhouse- I'm here tonight to say thank you to the City, to the TSAC for the speed
humps on Mulhouse. They were installed two weeks ago, I guess. I have seen a significant slowdown
in traffic, which is what we desperately needed. So I just wanted to say thank you. I'm not going to
take full five minutes but thank you to the Commission and thank you to the City for doing this.
Jonathan Marquez 5817 St. Andrews - I'm here just to give you guys the face on the Staff Comments
and New requests. And specific to 5D- Hubertus Comal Creek and Danville Middle School sidewalks.
I've already went to multiple city council meetings about this. I'm sure that's how it got on here. I've
already went to Comal ISD board about this. This is my last check. And then I'm going to circle around
so you guys will probably see me again. But this situation is pretty dear to me because, you know,
we're on the edge of Schertz, we're still in Schertz, but we're on the edge of it. They come out ISD put
two schools over there, Danville Middle School, Comal Creek, and from what the City tells me is that,
you know, it's based on when they're when new occupants come or buy the land, they're supposed to
build out the sidewalks. However, it hasn't happened. Danville's been open since 2018 and there's still
gaps in it. And I'm not saying, I'm not asking for, you know, miles of sidewalk here. It's gaps in the
sidewalk, probably total on both sides. Half mile that would, you know, alleviate them going through
the brush, then walking on the street. Either way, it's a bad situation, to thorny needles to, you know,
we're in Texas natural wildlife of Texas. And in a grand scheme of things, I would like to see my kids
being healthy, fit, taking a bike from Northcliffe, going through to the school without any hiccups.
Grand scheme of things. You know, I'd like to work with TxDOT. Get everybody involved and maybe
get a good pedestrian bridge. But I know that's a long-term goal. But just for now, it'd be nice if we
can just fill in those gaps. It's not a lot. It's very feasible. And there's a lot of kids who can benefit from
it. And I would just hate for us to have this conversation later. If a kid were to get hit by a bus or bit
by a snake. So I just want to bring it to your guys’ forefront. And I know there's a lot of different
sidewalk requests for after school programs for leisure, but this is a straight from school to home
request and it's very feasible. I appreciate your guys’ time. Thank you.
1. Minutes: Consideration/action for approval of November 6, 2025, TSAC Meeting
Minutes.
Motion was made by Commissioner Heyward. Seconded by Commissioner Paul Wiley. Motion
passed.
2. Pecan Signalization: Consideration/action for recommendation of Signalization at
Pecan and Schertz Parkway
Serena Contreras stated in the past, we've received complaints from residents regarding the high
pedestrian traffic and then the various turning movements. Previously this intersection did not warrant
signalization. However, a recent warrant was done, and it now does warrant signalization. So we are
requesting a formal recommendation from TSAC so we can take this to Council.
Commissioner Heyward asked this on our rack and stack that we did last time. For the budget.
2-5-2026 TSAC Minutes Page 3 of 14 Transportation Safety Advisory Commission
Kathy Woodlee stated so this particular one wasn't this kind of exceeds that budget. It's a much larger
project. I think that whole budget was in the neighborhood of $350,000 for all those different studies
and speed humps and those sorts of things, but this one's a little bit bigger. And we've talked about it
and we presented the data, but we never asked for a formal recommendation. So that's what it is. This
is in the budget in a different area though.
Motion was made by Commissioner Heyward to recommend to City Council. Seconded by
Commissioner Roy Ragsdale. Motion passed.
3. Citizen-Requested Item Updates
a. Elbel & Westchester school zone signage
Serena Contreras stated the first one is in Elbel and Westchester. The new signage plan was approved,
and new signage revisions have been placed. We are just waiting for pavement markings, which should
be done early March. Additionally, City staff is looking to update the ordinance that would change all
speed limit signs to say As Posted, instead of it varying from street to street and time to time.
b. Ashley Park Speeding
Serena Contreras stated so currently we have actually, we just removed them temporary radar signs
out. As we can see here, there are still relatively high speeds, both before we placed the radar sign and
then after. So as of right now, we're working on verifying the signage that's out there, and PD will
continue to patrol the area.

c. Primrose School/Medical Buildings access at Schertz Parkway
Lee Harris stated thank you and for welcoming me here and hopefully if you have any questions, just
let me know. But for the medical building at Primrose, we went out and we've done a little
reconnaissance and research out there. We had a meeting set up with the businesses and the Primrose
School, unfortunately, we only had one person show up to that meeting, and that was a representative
from the Primrose School. We presented the proposed improvements to this area. And they were very
open to what we had proposed to them. Following that meeting, I had reached out to the medical plaza
there on the east side, as well as the other businesses on the west. I have sent them our presentation
from that meeting and talked with them briefly. I'm still waiting to hear back from the assisted living
facility. I got ahold of the management company for the medical complex. He was going to pass that
along to the owner so that we could get in touch with them to get feedback on it from them, but that is
kind of where we stand at the moment. We've got positive feedback so far, but we're still waiting to
hear more feedback before we move forward with any other plans for the improvements.
Commissioner Dziewit asked, “do we have a time sequence where that is to happen, where you are
supposed to get all the information back”?
Lee Harris stated so right now I am waiting, like I said, to hear back from them. If I don't hear back
from them next week, I'll try reaching out again. But we do have a time frame that we would like to
try and get these improvements done to improve the safety for the people exiting these businesses.
We'd like to get that done some time, I believe, hopefully here this summer. Definitely before the end
of the year. With it being a safety issue and people turning left out of those exits. but that is the issue,
vehicles turning left out of these exits. We're looking at making improvements by extending the
medians in the center and putting no left hand turns out of those exits and making everyone turn right
as they're exiting. But we would still allow them to turn left ins. There's enough sight distance, and we
feel confident that they can make that turn safely. So here's a little diagram showing what we're looking
at trying to do. As I said we're going to lengthen the medians there about thirty foot on one side,
twenty-seven foot on the other, with some no left-hand turns coming out. We're looking at the west
side of doing some modifications to their drive approach and kind of angling the people exiting to the
right so that they don't feel like they can make a left. As well as replacing some of the curb along
Schertz Parkway with full depth curb, because when they installed all of that, they put depressed curb
in there. So that will help be another physical barrier to keep people going right. We want to also do
some of the same improvements on the east side, but our right of way over there is at the back of
sidewalk. So in order to do kind of curb improvements over there, to kind of angle the cars to the right,
we would have to do that on private property. So that's one of the reasons that we're reaching out to
the owner of that property to get their buy in to the project and to make sure they're all right with it
and to get permission should we move forward with those improvements.
Kathy Woodlee stated just throw a little something extra in there. So these improvements would be
something that we would not have been able to do without the funding from the list of the different
items. It's one of those unexpected things that we have the ability to do. It's probably small enough.
Public works can do quite a bit of it. So just want to let you know.
Commissioner Nolan asked could you go back to that previous slide? Is this something from a safety
standpoint, is this more of a safety issue or a request issue.
Lee Harris stated we had a citizen called in and said that they did not feel safe making lefts out of
there, so we went out and investigated it and took a look at it as well. We went out and sat at the
2-5-2026 TSAC Minutes Page 5 of 14 Transportation Safety Advisory Commission
intersection and looked right and left, measured the distances on how far you could actually see. And
when we looked at those distances that you could see versus what you needed to see in order to make
a left-hand turn, it did not meet the sight distance requirements. So this is a safety issue turning out,
you don't have enough sight distance to see the cars to make that decision on whether to go. So the
cars are pulling out into that center median and stopping before they go, which is what the big issue
is.
Commissioner Nolan stated I guess my issue with this is, if it's a safety issue. And I've had situations
where I've actually pulled in that area and came out. It's a safety issue. Why do we have to have
everybody, you know, the businesses and all that kind of stuff approve it? Can't we just say, hey, this
is a safety issue and we're going to do it?
Lee Harris stated well, we want to at least notify them and let them know what's going on as well, and
allow them to at least give their feedback, because maybe there's something that they have that happens
on their property that we don't know about, that we're not taking into account, that we need to probably
look at providing maybe a different solution. So that's why we're trying to get feedback from them.
And that way they can let their patrons know and everybody. So it's not just throwing it all on them
all at once. And then everybody comes in here raising a fit because they didn't know about it.
Commissioner Nolan stated well, I guess from my standpoint I'd hate to see something A safety issue
held up because two or three of their patrons say, oh, but I don't have a problem turning left. It's okay.
Just leave it the way it is. You know that type of thing. If it's a true safety issue and I truly believe it
is. So that's why I hate to see the delays like the end of the year for something that might save
somebody's life, next month or the month after, so. Okay. That's all I needed.
d. IH 35 at Fairlawn pavement markings/signage/U-Turns
Serena Contreras stated where Fairlawn meets IH-35, there were concerns that vehicles are making
that that U-turn right there. The City will allow U-turns at that intersection. The bottom line is, if
there's no sign or ordinance preventing that U-turn, you are able to make that U-turn if you deem that
it is safe. So that's going to be all in the hands of the driver. If there are no issues with this. Public
works is looking to remove the yellow pavement markings next week, I think beginning next week.
Commission Ragsdale asked would it be possible to put a U circle or U arrow at the end of it? So
there's two lanes going out to IH 35 on Fairlawn. Can we have the far-left lane be designated to turn
over into the other lane. Are you following what I'm saying?
Serena Contreras stated I believe it's supposed to be one lane out there currently.
Kathy Woodlee stated so actually, someone brought this up at the HOA meeting last evening. About
actually striping it as two lanes, which is not something we looked at. We're not necessarily looking
at encouraging the U-turn, because larger vehicles may not actually be able to do it. The really big
vehicles may not be able to do it safely. But we will look into it as far as additional striping to clarify
the situation. I think getting rid of the yellow striping, we're hopeful that will clarify for some folks
that it is actually permitted. But as far as splitting it into two lanes of traffic, I would hate for a large
vehicle to get into that left turn lane and then find out, oh, I can't really do that. So exactly what we
might be able to do there. We'll be back again. I would like to be done with this, but we will continue
to look at that.
Commissioner Heyward had a statement, really, I know we're saying is permitted. I run up and down
that road a lot. You had a roundabout just two, less than one hundred yards away. So they had to spend
a little bit more gas to go to the roundabout. Nice and clear visibility, perfect, my thought.
2-5-2026 TSAC Minutes Page 6 of 14 Transportation Safety Advisory Commission
Commissioner Ragsdale stated it's basically for people turning in to go to the school. In other words,
if you do the roundabout, you're still going to end up in the same place. The entrance to the school is
in between those two arrows.
Serena Contreras stated that people traveling toward IH 35 would have to go all the way around and
come back up the frontage road. And so a lot of drivers think it's just easier to make that U-turn instead
of having to take the long way around.
e. Mulhouse Speed Humps
Serena Contreras stated all four sets of speed humps have been installed. And we're going to go ahead
and wait about six months to take traffic counts again to just make sure they're doing their job.
f. Hollering Vine-Luckside-Hollering Pass-FM 1518 speeding and signage
Serena Contreras stated new counts were taken at the roundabout. There is still a speeding concern in
some. In some areas the speed decreased. However, there are still concerns about the speeding coming
off of FM 1518. So we're going to take additional counts closer to FM 1518. I believe we're starting
that in about two weeks.
Hollering Vine N of Turnabout - 20 mph speed limit (before/after)
North South
ADT – 310/295 ADT - 480/437
85th per. speed – 24.0/27.0 mph 85th per. Speed – 32.7/27.4 mph

222/192 vehicles were over 25 mph
49/9 vehicles were over 30 mph
4. Commissioner-Requested Item Updates
a. Borgfeld at Dietz Rd pavement marking and signage
2-5-2026 TSAC Minutes Page 7 of 14 Transportation Safety Advisory Commission
Serena Contreras stated lane revisions are not plausible at this time. This signal is in the City of Cibolo
jurisdiction, so we would have to discuss signal revisions with them. And it just does not seem like
that is something that we can do at this time.
b. Bus Stop at Obernai Path and Belfort Point
Serena Contreras stated City staff contacted SCUCISD, and that bus stop is a home drop-off and pick-
up, so it cannot be changed, unfortunately.
Commissioner Nolan asked what does that mean? The lady that came to one of our board meetings
and was talking to me, she mentioned that her request was to put a stop sign right there where that
arrow is pointing, because cars come and go around that curve and then up Bening Way to get out of
the subdivision or out onto Alsatian way. And a lot of times it's right when the kids are getting out of
school and a lot of little ones. And she was just fearful that by not stopping the traffic there, that she
was fearful that a kid might get hit by a car when they're coming off the bus and walking across the
street to get onto Belfort from Bening Way. Now you're saying that something's not, it's not meeting
the guidelines of a stop sign there to slow traffic or to stop traffic.
Serena Contreras stated we cannot place a stop sign there. It's not warranted because that's not an
intersection. So we can't place the stop sign where it was requested. So we moved to seeing if maybe
we could change where the bus stopped to protect the children. However, we can't move that bus stop.
c. FM 3009 – Missing End of School Zone signage
Serena Contreras stated staff reached out to TxDOT. TxDOT has reviewed the area, and they went
ahead and installed the end of school zone pavement markings.
Commissioner Nolan asked, so there is a sign now if you're going from say FM 78 up FM 3009 before
you get to the intersection, the light, there's the sign with the with the yellow light that potentially
flashes to say hey slow down to thirty-five. So after that intersection somewhere, there's a sign that
says end of school zone or something. Is that what you're saying?
Robert Martinez stated no, that's not what we're saying. I am waiting for the Area supervisor to get
back me back. He was telling me that they don't normally put in the school zone at those locations,
but they do paint the markings. So I'm waiting on a word back from him to see if that's going to be.
But they did do both of the markings on FM 3009.
Commissioner Nolan stated because it's actually an issue both ways. I when I saw it the first time, I
made reference to make sure I saw it on the way back. And there's the pole with the yellow light
flashing. If you know, if there's, I guess, at school let out time or whatever you want to call it. And
time is on the sign. In my estimation, you know, ninety percent of the time, if you see one of those
signs, especially with the flashing arrow or something flashing light that says, hey, slow down, this is
a, you know, the school crossing or whatever you want to call it. There's usually a sign so far past the
crossing that says end of school zone speed or whatever you want to call it. I just wondered why they
were not there.
Kathy Woodlee stated it is my understanding, but I think Robert's waiting to get confirmation from
TxDOT is that they won't put an end of school zone sign. They rely on the fact that there's a flashing
sign there. You saw the flashing light sign when you came in, and when you leave, you can see the
one that's flashing from the other side. And in combination with the stripe that that's the indicator for
the end of school zone. But we're waiting for confirmation on that okay.
5. Staff Comments and/or New Requests
2-5-2026 TSAC Minutes Page 8 of 14 Transportation Safety Advisory Commission
a. Curling Post and Sagenite signage
Serena Contreras stated currently there are stops on Sagenite at this intersection. However, nowhere
else on Sagenite is traffic stopped. That is considered the major road. So we went out and took traffic
counts just to kind of get an idea of the movement in the area, how many vehicles we would see at this
intersection. So, Curling Post going eastbound would have approximately 2500 vehicles over the ten-
day period, and then westbound would have 1500 vehicles over the ten-day period, and then Sagenite
has 4700 going northbound and 2100 going southbound. So Sagenite has significantly more traffic.
Sagenite leg of that intersection that has the stop. So what we are looking to do is switch the stop signs
from the major road onto the minor road. We did check and this intersection does not warrant a four
way stop. Next step, Staff is going to check with the HOA and see if this is something that is plausible
for that community.
Commissioner Hormel stated I live a block away. I've seen, I don't know, probably one hundred times
where accidents almost occur there. Because what you think is the main road is the one that has to
stop. And plus what we didn't mention here, that's also a school stop, a bus stop for the school right
there in the corner. So there's also a ton of kids there. So it's a very confusing intersection. So if you
can clear that up that would be great.

b. Cliffside Speeding
Serena Contreras stated we took some initial counts on Cliffside. And they do not warrant speed
humps. So in order to warrant speed humps you would have to have an ADT of at least 500. And then
the 85% percentile speed would have to be over twenty-five miles an hour. We are going to go ahead
and take counts again and we're going to add in; I believe the street is Meadowhead. To kind of get an
idea of the speeds in that area.

52 Vehicles were over 30 mph
c. Lee Street – Church/Food Donation blocking street
Serena Contreras stated we received a complaint from a resident that when the church on Lee Street
holds their food pantry, we have vehicles parked on both sides of the street. The width of that street is
not very wide. So it is difficult to maneuver on that street when we have parking on both sides. Next
steps, staff is going to reach out to that food pantry and see if we can discuss complaints with them
and see if there's anything they can do to help out.
d. Hubertus/FM 482 – Comal Creek and Danville school sidewalks
Serena Contreras stated this shorter section, the southern part, to construct that sidewalk- it's going to
be a little over twenty-five thousand. And the larger part on the north to construct that, it's going to be
just under one hundred and twenty-one thousand. So both of these areas, we have development
applications in, and they will be required to build that sidewalk.
2-5-2026 TSAC Minutes Page 10 of 14 Transportation Safety Advisory Commission
Kathy Woodlee stated the smaller tract between the convenience store and the elementary school,
they're a little bit farther along in the development process, and they are moving consistently. We do
have an expectation that that actually will come to fruition and happen within less than a year.
However, that being a smaller gap, it's also a little easier for the City to take care of. So we're going to
watch that very carefully, to make sure that it gets done in a timely fashion. The other is a is a little bit
bigger gap, but we feel that it's important to get at least one or the other. So, not ideal, but it's going to
be fairly certain that that short gap between the convenience store and the elementary school will be
done within a reasonable time frame.
e. First Street at Main Street intersection – cross traffic
Serena Contreras stated we did receive a complaint from a resident. It may have been city staff that
when you are stopped on Main Street, occasionally you cannot see the traffic coming off of First Street,
and First Street does not have a stop. We've looked at accident data, and we've had five accidents in
the last year at this intersection. However, this intersection is in TxDOT jurisdiction. So we've reached
out to TxDOT regarding this issue, we're waiting to hear back from them.
f. Speeding on Devonwood and Cypress Pont
Serena Contreras stated it is important to note that coming off of the frontage road onto Cypress Point
that is uphill. There are high speeds at all of the locations in which we took traffic counts. So staff is
looking into solutions, and we'll let you know when we come up with something.

g. Speeding on Davenport
Serena Contreras stated Davenport does not warrant speed humps. So after reviewing all of the traffic
counts, Public Works is going to go in and review signage. And PD will continue to patrol this area.
Commissioner Nolan asked a question, and maybe it's more of a question for I guess it would be Bull.
And I guess with some of these areas, seems like we're talking about a lot, a lot of areas tonight at least
that where they're speeding. If there's if there's specific areas like this that we're seeing a high amount
of speeding. High volume of speeding. Especially maybe in this one here. Would it be plausible to
maybe patrol those areas a little bit more than normal or is that something that we can't do because of
calls and other activities going on?
Scott Morehouse stated so as far as our patrol goes, their main duty is going to be taking calls,
responding, when they're not doing that, they do enforce the traffic. Our traffic unit right now,
unfortunately, is just me and two other officers. So we're limited in what we can do. All of these
recommendations that come down, all these hot spots that are were notified about, we will go and
address those. And I mean, obviously you've seen how many there are with three of us, we try to get
to as many as we can. And sometimes, you know, it's a week or two between when we get to hit these
spots. But absolutely these once we're made aware of these, we do focus on these areas.

h. IH 35 SB Frontage Road at Schertz Parkway pavement markings/signage
Serena Contreras stated staff received a complaint from a resident that when you're traveling
southbound on the frontage road at IH 35 and Schertz Parkway, the pavement markings and signage
are unclear due to the construction. So we have relayed that to TxDOT. TxDOT has relayed that to
their contractor, but as of today, no revisions have been made.
Commissioner Nolan asked do you know when that was referred to TxDOT? I mean, how long have
they had that? That we haven’t heard back.
Staff stated 2 weeks.
6. Future Agenda Items Requests from Commissioners
Commissioner Hormel – None
Commissioner Wiley – None
Commissioner Heyward stated my mind's operating slow tonight. So on the middle school, I'm looking
at you, Brian, because you're the money guy. Is it possible to put, like, some crushed stone or
something, a faux sidewalk?
Brian James stated we could look at it and sort of see, you know, the issue, right? If we had kind of
where it tended to be really wet or something like that? Maybe. So I'm not sure that again, we could
look at. I'm not sure that really helps the situation. I think the frustration is we ought to have a sidewalk.
It ought to be wide enough. We ought to make sure that it's a clear path. So if there's snakes or things
like that, you know, if a child is in a wheelchair can get through it, so we can look at it. I'm just not
sure folks really be happy with it. And, you know, with rain and things rushing again, I think to just
2-5-2026 TSAC Minutes Page 13 of 14 Transportation Safety Advisory Commission
echo this, since we had the item on the agenda, I think staff's kind of position at this point, since we
have these pending development applications, is let's watch those, because if they were to go under
construction, then you're not going to be able to use the sidewalk anyway while they're under
construction. But if they go under construction in a relatively reasonable time, then that developer will
build that sidewalk as part of their project. It's there, and then the city can use the funds elsewhere.
But I think, as Kathy and Serena noted, if we don't, if we see those bogging down and it doesn't look
like they're going to happen, then we're probably going to come back and say, yeah, we need to fill in
one of those gaps. But let us look at it. I think we've gone out and looked at it. I think the frustration
as kids are kind of walking through the dirt. You know, we're not in an area where it rains a whole,
whole lot. I've not gotten the impression when I've looked at it. It's really kind of a boggy mess, but
we can take a look at it.
Commissioner Ragsdale stated Old Wiederstein, it started to get really, really rough again. Are there
any plans to address that?
Brian James stated that Old Wiederstein is on our capital improvements plan. It's not on our capital
improvements plan to get funded for another five or six years, something like that. So this is what I
would say is a is a policy question, right. And we have a lot of needs that folks come up with. As an
example, we know that we will try to get public works out there to kind of do what they can with it.
But again, this is one that, as we've talked about, the road is just in such horrible shape. It was a country
road never intended for this kind of traffic. It as we put money into it, it'll kind of fall apart. I think
council has heard from some folks on it. You know, as we roll into budget season and we talk about
the capital improvements program, I'm sure people on council will mention it again. We'll take a look
at it. So again, good for Councilman Davis to hear that. So as we roll through the budget in CIP, he
can say, yep, I've heard people mention it, not putting it on him. Right. He doesn't make that decision.
But part of what we like and what council likes is we want to hear what folks say. We want to hear
where they're seeing problems. And its information we can take under account with that. And so I
appreciate you bringing it up. Yeah. We've got Eckhardt Road, we've got old Wiederstein Road, we've
got Maske Road, we've got Lower Seguin Road. Those are four of the ones we hear about a whole lot.
And again, we're trying to go for grants on some so that we can fund it that way and then have funding
for the other. So we'll add it to the list. Nobody here and I think council disagrees with you. It's just
how we kind of balance all of that need.
Commissioner Nolan stated I have a question. Seems like I always have a question. Last year in 2025,
I think. Correct me, but I think that was the first year that we actually made a list of items that we
would like to see taken care of, and it was going to cost money. And Brian and some other people
were kind enough to take that to city council, and they approved it. I guess starting since we're starting
a new year now, as we go through items and depending on the studies and the results, how do we go
about getting a result? Starting a list, I'll say, for 2026 of items that we know is going to cost some
money that, you know we don't have, that the city that could be toward the end of the year or a budget
time, somebody could take the council and say, hey, we would like to be able to fund these projects.
I don't want to lose sight of that, because I think it was an excellent thing that we did last year, and it
allowed council to also understand our needs and for them to be nice enough or kind enough to supply
the money so we could get some of these things taken care of. So how do we do that this year?
Kathy Woodlee stated I'm glad to hear you say that because when this did go to council, there was
actually quite a bit of conversation about it. Because it was, you know, there's a limited amount of
funds and there's lots and lots of requests, and this was one that there was some debate and there was
some decision making as far as whether this would be an ongoing recurring funding or if it would be
at one time. And how it ended up was a one-time funding of this. So it's really on us to get things done
and knocked out this year, actually spend the money that we've been given to demonstrate. Here's what
