[5:38] >> Mayor and council, you've got a list of
[5:40] the planning and zoning commission in
[5:43] your packet. There are two members that
[5:45] their terms expire in September. They're
[5:49] both interested in serving again. Those
[5:51] are David Tyer and Greg [name].
[6:00] Did any
[6:02] other
[6:03] >> just need a Yes, ma'am. They just need a
[6:05] motion to approve those two at councils
[6:07] >> and nobody else applied.
[6:08] >> No, ma'am.
[6:09] >> I'll make a motion we approve the two

[6:13] already.
[6:14] >> I second the motion.
[6:15] >> Okay, it's been moved and second. All in
[6:17] favor?
[6:19] >> Motion carries. Uh we're at a bring us
[6:23] to item number three.
[6:27] Um considering approve an ordinance
[6:29] amending uh chapter 19 utilities of the
[6:32] Crockett Code amendment section 1937
[6:35] increasing the race for rental and
[6:37] commercial water service amended and
[6:40] section 1958 increasing the race for the
[6:43] residential and commercial water service
[6:45] containing a serability clause
[6:47] containing a repealing clause and
[6:50] providing an effective date.
[6:53] uh what what it is. We won't go through
[6:55] this one because it's a it's not written
[6:59] exactly worded as it should have been.
[7:02] >> Yes, ma'am. Mayor, it came to our
[7:03] attention just a few minutes ago. If
[7:06] you'll read it says increase the section
[7:09] 1937 is for residential and commercial
[7:12] water. Then 1958 also says commercial
[7:15] water, not sewer. It should have been
[7:17] sewer. And I don't want to take that
[7:20] forward with a a typo in there to come
[7:24] back on the city. So
[7:25] >> if if we was going to increase water,
[7:27] why would we increase sewer also?
[7:30] >> Well, water and sewer, they that was and
[7:33] we can talk about that since it's not
[7:35] going to be on agenda. We'll talk about
[7:37] that. But there are some handouts I did
[7:40] provide for y'all that will talk about
[7:42] the water and sewer. So when we come
[7:43] back, you'll have a little more
[7:45] information. And I'm also going to give
[7:47] you a copy of the water and sewer budget
[7:49] tonight, too. So when we come back,
[7:50] we'll have a little better idea to talk
[7:52] about it.
[7:54] >> Okay. So
[7:54] >> So we're going to table this.
[7:56] >> Yeah.
[7:56] >> I would like to Yes, we
[7:58] >> But but I' I'd like if we if we do
[8:03] have to
[8:05] go up on I know they go up on us 2% the
[8:09] water district
[8:11] and and if we pass that on, why do we
[8:14] have to go up on sewer? Okay. As
[8:16] >> I know it, sorry.
[8:17] >> Well, since it's not up for discussion
[8:20] tonight and we're not going to treat it
[8:21] as an we're going to rewrite it.
[8:23] >> No, we're we're just going to uh put it
[8:26] as it would.
[8:27] >> We're still going to discussion on it so
[8:29] we can get a
[8:32] >> we
[8:33] >> it's not a if it's written incorrectly,
[8:36] >> it's really not a legal agenda item.
[8:38] >> It can't be addressed as a agenda.
[8:40] >> It's on my paper here as agenda. It's
[8:42] incorrectly
[8:42] >> but for just the water section, not the
[8:44] sewer section.
[8:45] >> Yeah, it's incorrectly written. So,
[8:47] actually, we can't talk about the
[8:49] components as a item,
[8:52] >> but it will be reposted for the 15th
[8:54] agenda.
[8:55] >> So, with that being said, we can just
[8:57] So, we can't discuss the water either.
[9:00] >> I mean, not as an agenda. It's not an
[9:02] agenda item.
[9:03] >> Okay. because it's written as an agenda
[9:06] item.
[9:06] >> So with that being said, it will I mean
[9:09] you're supposed to have it as an agenda
[9:11] item to discuss it
[9:13] >> and it so it can't be a open discussion
[9:15] on it.
[9:15] >> So with with that being said, I I was
[9:17] that I was also going to bring uh to his
[9:20] attention as well that you know the
[9:21] verbiage on there um
[9:23] >> Okay. Well, we won't leave it out of
[9:25] that. So I'll be with you on that.
[9:27] >> Okay, that'll be fine. Okay. So with
[9:29] that being said, it brings us to the uh
[9:33] the executive session item number four,
[9:36] personnel matters discussion on duties
[9:39] and responsibility of city
[9:40] administrator.
