03:08fiscal year of 39,379,22

03:13and total 894,42,265.

03:18I want to draw your attention to the 4%

03:21over projections right now. So we gained

03:24another tenth from last month

03:26>> and holidays are coming.

03:28>> Yeah. And then on the expenditure side

03:52receive the report.

03:59and I vote I.

04:08>> Motion passes. Thank you. Item 2 C,

04:10approve the maps for citizen advisory

04:12board 2027 meeting schedule.

04:17>> This is required uh that we post this or

04:20you approve this meeting schedule. We do

04:22it every year.

04:23>> Okay. Any questions? Okay. Take a motion

04:26in a second to approve.

04:35Okay. Um I

04:38I forgot my password so

04:41having to wing it here. Motion passes.

04:44Okay. Item 2D uh location update on the

04:47maps 4 street light project. One of the

04:50projects within maps 4 is street lights

04:52and it has been a bit of a challenge and

04:55AJ Kirkpatrick is here from ADG BLAT to

05:00um show you what some of those

05:01challenges are and how we have finally

05:04come up with an approach.

05:06>> Thank you. Uh good morning to everyone.

05:09Uh so yeah, David uh set it up

05:11perfectly. Um I had gone back yesterday

05:14and looked and we've been talking to

05:16various departments. Uh there are lots

05:18of departments that you need to weigh in

05:19on some of these things and we've been

05:21talking to them since uh 2024 on this.

05:24So this was our first attempt at trying

05:27to put some um additional meat on the

05:29bone um to what came out of the

05:31resolution on this item. So this is the

05:34full language for that sidewalks, bike

05:36lanes, trails, and street lights uh

05:38item. The specific language uh relevant

05:42today is highlighted down there in the

05:43bottom. Um, and it was council's intent

05:46to allocate $4 million to fund 10 years

05:48of operating costs related to the

05:51construction of approximately a thousand

05:52new street lights to be placed along

05:53arterial roads. So, important part of

05:55that uh I want to highlight there is

05:57they did specify that these need to be

05:58on arterial roads.

06:02And that's a lot to look at, I know, but

06:03that's the full budget for that um

06:06entire grouping of projects. And uh I'm

06:08bringing your attention there to the

06:09very bottom where street lights were

06:11pulled out in that $4 million.

06:14So in terms of like helping us start to

06:16get our arms around the uh scope of work

06:18here. Um this was an early estimate we

06:21were working with. I'll tell you that

06:22just this week um we did get uh the

06:26fuller detail and that $20 per month per

06:28light is actually pretty low based on

06:30what we're seeing. Uh but at the time we

06:32were guessing uh that that would be

06:34about 240 per light per year and then

06:362400 per decade per light. Um so that

06:40would um as I said there's many other

06:44factors that we're going to have to

06:45consider now in terms of how OG arrives

06:47at those costs. So that will eat into

06:49that a little bit more than a little

06:51bit. Um but we are still trying to make

06:53sure that we're getting um the thousand

06:55lights. That's still part of the goal

06:56that's in the resolution. So, in

06:59weighing all that, there are going to be

07:01circumstances that uh we're going have

07:02to look at in terms of additional uh

07:04construction costs that we have to pick

07:05up um if existing poles are not

07:08available. And then uh there's also some

07:10additional costs in terms of the fixture

07:12costs. So, when we're going to go out

07:14and look at these study areas I'm about

07:16to show you, we're going to be trying to

07:17weigh all that and keep some of those

07:19additional costs low.

07:24Uh in terms of starting to look at some

07:27of the factors that we wanted to

07:28consider in where to put these uh first

07:32of course in the resolution it says we

07:34need to be focused on arterial streets.

07:36uh we wanted to look at safety concerns

07:38that were already well known and then uh

07:41in terms of new development and

07:43potential infrastructure lag that might

07:44be in place where we're seeing uh lots

07:47of particularly residential new

07:49development and we haven't had uh the

07:51time to catch up to some of that uh as a

07:54city. Uh the fourth being any transit

07:57and bike improvements and lastly if

07:59we've got any known citizen requests for

08:01additional lights on arterials.

08:05So I wanted to highlight some data that

08:08we got from the planning department and

08:11this is uh the high impact network data

08:14that they got um as part of some of the

08:16work they were doing for the vision zero

08:17plan. Uh this is uh where an accident

08:21occurred and lighting lack of lighting

08:24was cited as one of the causes of that

08:26accident. So anywhere where there's red

08:30um is where that uh data pointed us. So

08:33you can see uh some of the the ones I'll

08:35just point out real quickly. Of course,

08:37we can't use this money on interstates.

08:39We're going to try to focus on the city

08:41controlled streets. Uh but that Mustang

08:43Road uh north of Mustang, basically

08:46between Yukon and Mustang, uh there was

08:48quite a bit in that north Reno and

08:51Northwest Tentth Street that we were

08:52trying to hit in what we're going to

08:54look at.

08:56Additionally, planning department was

08:58able to give us this really handy map

09:01showing housing growth in the city since

09:042020. And uh the areas in that more

09:08orange and red are areas where we've

09:11seen a lot of housing growth um in just

09:13the 2020s. So, we wanted to take those

09:16into consideration as well. In addition

09:17to the ones between Yukon and Mustang,

09:19uh, Northwest Expressway, uh, also look

09:23at the area down there in the very far

09:25south, uh, kind of west of Moore.

09:30And then, uh, we are also, of course,

09:32working in another part of maps 4 on the

09:35bus rapid transit and so we wanted to

09:37make sure that we were taking

09:38consideration that route. Uh so that is

09:41shown here in the light blue as well as

09:44the existing Northwest Expressway and

09:46Classen route. And then on top of that,

09:49we put all uh the ongoing bike projects

09:52in that pink color. And so wanting to

09:54make sure that we were looking at some

09:56of those as well.

09:59Then lastly, uh hopefully you all are

10:01aware that you can use uh the action

10:04center uh and its app and its phone

10:06number to report all sorts of uh

10:08municipal items. But uh we did uh reach

10:13out to the action center and asked them

10:14to share any uh requests that they had

10:17received recently uh on uh additional

10:21street lights. And so we called through

10:23that. A lot of those were on residential

10:24streets. So, we did call through that

10:25and uh pulled out all the ones that were

10:27on materials.

10:30So, that gets me to our recommended

10:31study areas. We ended up with uh 12.

10:34Those are highlighted in yellow here. Um

10:36I've left all those other uh data layers

10:40on there so you can kind of see how they

10:42overlay, but I'm going to walk you

10:44through each one of those really quickly

10:45here. And uh in terms of the base layer

10:48of the map I'm about to show you, we

10:50were able to find a nighttime aerial

10:52from a satellite uh that went over in

10:552024. U that's very helpful in seeing

10:58what nighttime lighting looks like. And

11:00so I'm going to zoom into each one here.

11:03Uh I'm bear in mind that when I am

11:05showing you these, I'm we're the study

11:08area I'm trying to define is the entire

11:10yellow bound area. So, I'm going to call

11:12it Northwest Expressway, but it's really

11:15about trying to get all of that growth

11:16on either side of Northwest Expressway

11:18and those arterials. Uh, we will be uh

11:21that purple item is to just reinforce

11:23that there is uh a portion of Northwest

11:26Expressway that is State Highway 3 and

11:29is under the uh management of ODOT. And

11:31so we will be very cautious about that

11:33and making sure that we're putting city

11:35resources where the city controls those

11:38where the city has control over uh those

11:41sort of responsibilities.

11:44The other area that we want to look at

11:46is north of Kilpatrick in the uh

11:48vicinity of Portland or Highway 74. Lots

11:52of growth. That was one of the other

11:54areas that had shown up very highly on

11:56that 2020 growth map.

12:00Uh this is generally centered on the

12:02area that's being redeveloped as the

12:04half uh on I235 going east and west uh

12:07into uh both directions there. Uh the

12:10pink again is bike projects. So there is

12:13a a portion of a bike project uh that

12:16comes into the study area as well. And

12:18then the red is that high impact network

12:20data where there was a an accident and

12:24low lighting was was listed as one of

12:26the causes.

12:29Fourth one is uh MLK uh north of 23rd is

12:33what we really started to focus on on

12:34this one. So this will be the northeast

12:37end of the B the new BRT. Uh in talking

12:40to public works about uh the ongoing

12:43streetscape project in 23rd Street, they

12:45felt pretty confident that that will

12:47increase lighting u on the 23rd Street

12:49portion, but especially as it turns

12:51north on MLK. Uh, I think you guys can

12:55probably all imagine that there's pretty

12:56low lighting and stretches of that up to

12:58the Adventure District. Uh, as a

13:00reminder, the BRT, depending on the

13:02night, could be running as late as

13:03midnight to 2:00 a.m. So, we want to

13:06make sure that people are feeling safe

13:07uh in that last mile of wherever they're

13:09trying to get to from their destination.

13:12And then also, there's some street some

13:14some bike lanes uh in that study area as

13:16well.

13:18Fifth one being Sooner and I 240. Uh

13:22there has uh you can see uh over to the

13:24left there, there is an area that popped

13:26up on that uh high impact network data.

13:28Uh but we're really going to be focused

13:30on the approaches to 240 in this area.

13:32There has been some residential growth

13:34in this area. Um as well as a proposed

13:36bike project there.

13:40Sixth one is Western and Southwest 134th

13:43Street. So this is that area that I

13:45called out earlier directly west of

13:46Moore. Uh but certainly lots of uh

13:49growth in this area and we already can

13:52see that there's some uh some traffic uh

13:55accident data there in that 134th street

13:57corridor.

14:00This one's uh this image is going to do

14:02double duty first. I'm talking about

14:04number seven which is generally defined

14:06as southwest 59th Street and South May.

14:08But uh this was really started as a

14:11study area because it is the southwest

14:13uh edge of the BRT. uh as it gets down

14:16to the Amazon facility. So you can see

14:19lots of red areas in that. Uh but same

14:22justification as that northeast area of

14:24just making sure that people feel safe

14:25right in the BRT late at night. And then

14:28the eighth one is um Grand Boulevard. So

14:31Grand uh you know has a unique uh

14:33history within our overall street

14:34network. It isn't you know one of our

14:36main arterials in the the grid network,

14:39but um it does show up as being fairly

14:41low light. Um, and we did recently as a

14:45city put in the bike ped path. And so we

14:48want to make sure people feel safe using

14:49that. And we also and once we put it on

14:51the list started hearing some stories

14:53about uh high school kids especially

14:55during this time of the year um having

14:57to walk to school in the dark. Uh so I

14:59want to make sure they feel safe.

15:02Uh number nine is the that Southwest

15:0515th Street in Portland. Uh this was a

15:08portion of Southwest 15th that was added

15:10fairly late in the history of our city.

15:12um that runs by the Dell campus um out

15:15to some of the Meridian hotels. For some

15:17reason, it showed up very heavily on

15:19that high impact network. It appears to

15:21be well lit based on the number of uh

15:23street lights, but we just want to go

15:24out and uh make sure uh what it looks

15:26like at night to see why it might be

15:28showing up this way.

15:31And then trying to capture that entire

15:33west corridor, uh northwest 10th and

15:35west Reno. You can see lots of red

15:37that's showing up out there. uh you

15:39know, a lot of that area is industrial,

15:40semi-industrial, but we also have lots

15:42of residential interspersed depending on

15:45the portion. Uh so want to make sure

15:47that um uh that we're looking at that

15:49entire area. There's also a bike project

15:51there on the north end.

15:53The 11th one is uh north and west of

15:57Lake Overholser as it uh we some of the

15:59arterials are approaching the

16:01Kilpatrick. Uh lots of red in that one

16:04as well. um and just want to make sure

16:06that there's safety in approaching that

16:08that um highway.

16:11And then last um that Mustang Road, and

16:14this is more than Mustang Road, it's

16:15really the entire area that has really

16:17blown up uh between Yukon and Mustang uh

16:20with residential growth, but that

16:22Mustang Road uh area definitely showed

16:24up in the high impact network data. Um

16:27so these are the 12. Um we tried to I

16:31didn't say that at the beginning but we

16:32did try to have a lot of geographic

16:34diversity in this in that sense that

16:35we're trying to catch all corners of the

16:37city. Uh we also uh looked at some of

16:40the land use typology areas uh that came

16:43out of the comprehensive plan and tried

16:45to be thoughtful about those areas of

16:47the city that uh where people are are

16:49moving out there to really have a rural

16:50uh uh type of of lifestyle. And so we

16:54tried to keep it in in more urbanizing

16:55areas.

16:58Okay, that's it.

16:59>> Thank you so much. Any questions,

17:02Chelsea?

17:06>> Thank you. Yep, that's on. Thank you.

17:08This is awesome to see. Um, having

17:10worked on the vision zero action plan,

17:11it's really cool to see it actually

17:13being in implemented in some of these

17:15next steps of city development. Um, I

17:17really appreciated how you layered on

17:19the different things including the high

17:20impact injury network as well as the um,

17:24uh, bus rapid transit and the bike

17:26things. Are is there an option to see

17:29like any upcoming streetcapes too and

17:31how they might impact these areas or I'm

17:32sure you might be looking at this

17:34already as you're researching the

17:36locations.

17:37>> Um, in in general, I mean, we can stay

17:39in contact with public works certainly

17:40about some of the upcoming streetscapes.

17:42In general, the conversations I've had

17:44with the project managers is that they

17:46feel like their street streetscapes are

17:47doing a pretty good job of increasing

17:48lighting in those.

17:50>> Perfect. Yep. That's a huge priority for

17:51the Northwest 23rd streetscape. So,

17:53Boston,

17:53>> that's what I assumed you were talking

17:54about that one.

17:55>> Yes. Yep. Cool. Awesome. Thank you.

17:57>> Any other questions?

17:59Okay. No, thank you so much. Appreciate

18:01you.

18:03>> Item 2E, recommend approval of

18:05memorandum of understanding with the

18:07Oklahoma City Airport Trust for the maps

18:09for beautifification phase two.

18:12One of the projects with

18:15beautifification is the Bessie Coleman

18:17garden

18:18and that will be at the airport. When we

18:21started design and working with the

18:24airport, they wanted to make it larger

18:27and and more prominent.

18:29Knowing that we had limited funds, they

18:31agreed to provide some funding so that

18:33we could do a larger um area around it,

18:38more landscaping, parking, and then

18:40build a road [music] to get to it

18:43because it is at

18:46it's at the end kind of at the end of

18:48the runway where you can see planes land

18:50and take off. So, there had to be some

18:52other work for that to happen and

18:53they've agreed to fund that.

18:56But, we're going to do the work. uh

18:58Gernzi is going to to do the engineering

19:00and and we'll bid it and construct it,

19:02but they're going to reimburse us for

19:05that funding. So, this is the agreement

19:08for reimbursement.

19:10>> Okay. Any questions? How much are they

19:13chipping in? What do you remember?

19:15>> Um

19:17it's several hundred,000.

19:19>> Good. Okay. Appreciate the partnership.

19:21Okay. If there's no other questions,

19:23we'll take a motion and a second to

19:25approve.

19:26>> [clears throat]

19:32>> I mean,

19:37the motion passes. Item 2F, recommend

19:40approval of final plans and

19:42specifications to be approved and

19:44advertised for bid for the maps for

19:46beautifification phase 2 airport

19:48approaches. Um, Mr. Todd.

19:52>> So, this is our first beautifification

19:54project. experts sending final plans out

19:56for Paul Ruckost and Kale Copeland are

19:58here to take you through what the plans

20:00include.

20:01>> Great. Welcome.

20:02>> Good morning. It's a pleasure to be back

20:03with you. So, we're going to talk about

20:06uh three projects are going to be bid as

20:08one. Um and there is a fourth which we

20:11just talked about which Bessie Coleman

20:12that will come hopefully next month for

20:14final plans. Uh we after the master plan

20:18for beautifification was approved last

20:20year, we began design. We've been

20:22working with uh multiple entities to

20:25kind of coordinate these projects and

20:27they were split uh so that we can get

20:30into final plans right now begin

20:32construction this uh early winter and

20:35have it constructed by the end of summer

20:38early fall.

20:41Uh as I mentioned we've been working

20:43with multiple entities to coordinate

20:45these projects. uh it's been there our

20:47site at the airport. We have parks that

20:50has provided input uh especially for

20:52maintenance aspects. Uh we've been

20:54working with beautifification planner,

20:57public works, ODOT and oeni on our uh

21:00multiple project sites.

21:03And I'm going to turn it over to Kayla

21:05to talk about the design for the rest of

21:07this presentation and I'll I'll close it

21:08up.

21:11>> Thank you. So we'll start our

21:13presentation jumping into the designs at

21:15the airport. Um on the screen you'll see

21:18a location for where we are improving

21:20the airport approach. This will be for

21:23those coming from um airport road

21:26exiting on Meridian on the north side of

21:28the airport going southbound to the

21:30terminal. Um right now you can see in

21:33the dashed areas the existing site. Some

21:36some landscaping exists there. Um it's a

21:40age crepe myrtles age landscaping and we

21:43really want to give it a refresh and

21:44beautifification here.

21:48So before and after a little bit, we are

21:50looking to redo the landscape and

21:53beautify this area um with multiple

21:56layers of different textures and colors,

21:58metal and rock and native landscape

22:01plantings.

22:04to give you an idea of scale because I

22:06think this is super important for what

22:08this approach is changing to and

22:10morphing into. If you were to go from

22:12one side of our court wall, which is

22:15that red two red lines on the screen, um

22:19that from edge to edge is 90 feet in

22:22length. Around our planting bed, we also

22:25have a landscape burm. This burm is 40

22:29feet in depth. So, this is a huge

22:32airport approach improvement. Um, as I

22:35was talking about layers, I'll walk you

22:37through. Um, the triangle piece or

22:40diamond shape, that's going to be a 18

22:43twoft tall um, stonemasonry wall with a

22:47planter. This will be um designed with

22:51the same stone that you find um at our

22:53airport. That well-known mixed colorful

22:56stone with u the angle the the

22:59rectangular uh design in it. We're going

23:02to mock that here and give a little um

23:05connection back to our airport. Behind

23:07it are the next two layers of 3 and 1/2t

23:11tall quartin retaining walls. together

23:14combined they're seven foot tall and

23:15that is how tall this area will be with

23:18the addition of the landscaping as well.

23:22Um we get a lot of height. Um we have

23:24some [clears throat] Shauny brave uh

23:26bald cypresses on the top. We expect

23:28those to get around 30 feet. Um so this

23:30will be around 37 feet all in on both

23:33sides. Um we're designing this um to

23:37have low maintenance plantings. We're

23:39using aggregate mulches [clears throat]

23:41um and different rocks throughout like

23:43different boulders all locally sourced.

23:47This is a beautiful view of what your

23:49entrance experience will become. Because

23:51of the scale of these improvements and

23:55uh the landscape on top, we're able to

23:57really give you that sense of arrival to

23:59our airport. We're designing this also

24:01where if future improvements were to

24:04come, maybe future signage or future

24:05lighting or future art, we can integrate

24:07that into this too through the layer

24:09system.

24:11So, we're flexible.

24:15Um, now we'll move over to the Reno

24:17area. Um, this area in particular, think

24:20the entrance to the boat house, Reno and

24:23Lincoln. Um, we're looking at that

24:26spaghetti of interstates above us and we

24:29are going to hone in on beautifying the

24:31median in this space right now. You can

24:34see it's just turf. Um, there are some

24:36existing crosswalks that we will be

24:38maintaining um throughout our project.

24:42Um, so we'll still have that pedestrian

24:44connection from the hotels through our

24:47space um on the Lincoln Boulevard

24:49intersection. Um but our design is

24:53focused on on connecting us back to the

24:56river where possible. So we have a

24:59serpentine design of a architectural

25:01element going through which I'll show

25:03some renderings of here in a little bit.

25:05Um surrounded by an aggregate mulch that

25:08is lowmaintenance, different textures,

25:10different colors and these pockets of

25:12landscaping. We've worked handinhand

25:13with the parks department. um they are

25:15the ones that currently maintain this

25:17space of what they can manage and we've

25:20worked with them to come up with a

25:21planting pallet and a mulching pallet

25:23that they are comfortable with.

25:27This is a viewing of um that sculptural

25:30element. These are going to be 4-in raw

25:32steel post with welded caps. Um the

25:36thought here is we are going to mimic

25:37the river adjacent to us and play homage

25:40to the boat house district and their

25:42water flowing there. So, it's going to

25:44be going up and down like the river is

25:46flowing um surrounded by these different

25:50um native lowmaintenance plantings and

25:52diff different aggregates and boulders.

25:57Another element that we are maintaining,

25:59I don't know if y'all remember, but we

26:01are also going to uplight this area. So

26:04this portal space between um this

26:07industrial zone all the way to Bricktown

26:10to the boat house district and their

26:11horizon. We're going to uplight these

26:13columns with the options of seasonal

26:16color and play that the city can use for

26:18placemaking and beautifification

26:21and we are focusing on the columns

26:23adjacent to our median in the columns

26:26within our median.

26:29And then the last project we'll share

26:31today um is on First American Boulevard.

26:35The photos show an existing side path

26:37that um um is used for the connection of

26:42the Oklahoma River Trail. So, but

26:44cyclists, runners, um walkers use this

26:47to safely cross um the river, but also

26:50connect back to our trail system. Right

26:52now, it is just concrete um and uh

26:56barriers and guardrail on each side.

27:02We are looking to add an accent panel

27:04system and these are going to have a

27:07very um decorative bend in them as well.

27:12They will be back lit and have a design

27:14pattern that has another wave connecting

27:17back to our project just down the

27:18street. We're connecting the two

27:20projects with our color palette, too. So

27:22these panels are a series of three

27:25patterns that come together to make one

27:26long story across the bridge. Um we have

27:30another wave that we're playing with and

27:32we chose a diamond cutout pattern to um

27:35connect back to the horizon district. It

27:37is bringing people to and from across

27:39this bridge. Um it's very sign

27:42significant pattern for um the first

27:44American culture and it is also in a lot

27:47of their architecture right now. Um

27:49you'll see this bend in the panel is

27:52connected to the existing wall via a

27:54bolt system. Um so if a panel is harmed

27:59or damaged, we're able to just simply

28:01unbolt it, put the new panel on. That is

28:04according to the pattern and it's a very

28:06easy swap for maintenance.

28:12There's just another view of those

28:13panels. Um this current width of the

28:16pedestrian path is nine or 11 feet nine

28:19inches. With retrumment of five inches

28:22of our panel, we still have um well over

28:26a good space for the pedestrian. We're

28:28not impeding that um that space and

28:32they'll have the slight glow um when

28:34they're viewing the Olympics. They're

28:35looking downtown to really see um some

28:38more beautiful elements of our city.

28:41And I'll hand off to Paul.

28:45All right. Just like to highlight that

28:46we are projecting to be just under our

28:49uh budget for this project. When we

28:51receive bids, we expect to receive those

28:53bids in December with construction

28:56contract being approved in January and

28:58hopefully beginning construction in

28:59February. Uh the contractor will have

29:02270 days to complete all three projects.

29:05Uh they can do it at the same time or

29:06whatever way they want to do that. Uh we

29:09should be able to have all the planting

29:10done and the projects complete by

29:12November. So any questions?

29:16>> Any questions?

29:18So I just had one question on the panel

29:20um of the bridge.

29:22>> How tall are those? So they look like

29:23maybe two feet

29:24>> and you might have said

29:27>> I think

29:29>> they're Yeah, they are around two feet.

29:31>> Yeah, that's great.

29:33>> I think it is exactly like one foot 10

29:35in.

29:36>> Okay.

29:36>> Yeah. [laughter] Got it. Okay. Um, if we

29:39have no Thank you so much. Appreciate

29:41your presentation. Um, so if we have no

29:45uh questions, I take a motion in a

29:47second to approve final plans.

29:55And I vote yay.

30:10Okay, the motion passes. Item 2G,

30:13recommend approval of amendment number

30:15one to architectural services contract

30:17with CH Gernzian Company for the maps

30:20beautifification phase 2 Bessie Coleman

30:23Garden.

30:24>> So we should have coupled ENG together

30:27because this follows up with

30:29>> with theou, but we didn't. Um, so this

30:33is $40,000 for them to do the design and

30:36that will be reimbursed through the

30:38agreement that we you previously

30:40approved. Got it. Any questions? Okay.

30:43If not, I take a motion in a second to

30:45approve.

31:02Motion passes. Thank you. Item 2 H,

31:05recommend approval of amendment number

31:07three and change order number 10 with

31:09EMC services for the MAPS for sidewalks

31:12and related amenities phase 1B for an

31:16increase of 152,26656.

31:22>> So this situation that you've seen

31:24before with sidewalks, we get contractor

31:27on board. We um well well when we bid

31:31it, it was less and we still have money.

31:34We get a contractor on board. We want to

31:36continue to build more sidewalks. So we

31:38find more u alignments for them and we

31:41need to adjust those quantities.

31:43>> Okay. Any questions?

31:46All like more sidewalks. Okay. If not, I

31:48take a motion and a second to approve.

32:12Do we have a second? Do I have a verbal

32:13second? Well, there we go.

32:23And I'm Yay.

32:29[clears throat]

32:35>> Motion passes. Thank you. Item two, I

32:38recommend approval of amendment number

32:40three and change order number five with

32:42Nash Construction Company for the maps

32:45for sidewalks and related amenities

32:46phase 2A

32:49um for an increase of $373,7325.

32:56>> Same situation, different project,

32:58different contractor.

32:59>> Okay, any questions?

33:01Okay, not take a motion in a second.

33:26Okay, motion passes. Item 2J, recommend

33:29approval of amendment number two in

33:31change order number three with Ellsworth

33:33construction OKC

33:36um for the maps for sidewalks and

33:38related amenities phase 2B for an

33:40increase of $29,295.74

33:45>> one more time.

33:46>> Okay, any questions? If not, I'll take a

33:49motion in a second.

34:03Okay, thank you. Motion passes. Item 2K,

34:06recommend approval of change order

34:08number one with Crossland Construction

34:10for the MAPS for use center phase one

34:13for an increase of $20,91244.

34:18>> Each project we figure the billing

34:19permit cost and include that in there.

34:23We missed the impact fees. So, this is

34:25to reimburse the contractor for the

34:27impact fees that he had to pay to get

34:29the billing permit.

34:30>> Okay. Any questions?

34:32>> If not, I'd take a motion in a second.

34:44>> I guess

34:47motion passes. Thank you.

34:50Item 2L, recommend approval of amendment

34:53number one to architectural services

34:55contract with Design Architects Plus,

34:57Inc. Maps for youth centers phase two

35:01for an increase of $56,000.

35:04>> So when we negotiated the contract for

35:07this youth center, we had the MAPS

35:09budget and did it as as we usually do.

35:13After that was approved, the bond issue

35:18was was approved and we get another 400

35:21$4.5 million into the project. So, this

35:24is to compensate the architect for that

35:26additional cost.

35:28>> Okay, any questions?

35:30If not, I take a motion and a second to

35:32approve.

35:45Okay, thank you. Motion passes. Item 2 N

35:49M recommend approval of change order

35:51number four with Downey Construction for

35:53the maps for CB Cameron Park

35:55Improvements for an increase of

35:57$35,291.52.

36:01>> This is a project that's under

36:03construction. Obviously,

36:05um, several items on here that are

36:07pretty much routine construction type

36:09items. The the one that stands out is

36:11the backflow pre. So, there was a

36:14existing line within the park and as we

36:17did the grading and those various

36:20activities, we had to replace that line

36:23and also the backflow pre that feeds the

36:26entire irrigation system for the whole

36:29soccer area.

36:31>> Okay, any questions?

36:33If not, I would take a motion and a

36:35second to approve.

36:48Okay, thank you. The motion passes. Item

36:512 N recommend approval of ratifying and

36:53approving agendas number one, two,

36:55three, and four for the maps for

36:57neighborhood and community parks phase

37:00one A and rejecting the bids.

37:02>> So items N and O are similar. Our first

37:05two parks projects that we sent out for

37:08bids. This doesn't happen to us very

37:10often, but they were over budget and we

37:14need to pull those back, make some

37:17changes and and send them out again.

37:19>> Okay. Um I I can tell you the first one

37:21was about 750,000.

37:23The second one was about 1.8 million

37:26over budget.

37:28>> Yeah. So significant.

37:30>> Okay. Um I'll any questions?

37:34If not, I would take a motion in a

37:35second to approve. Approve to reject.

37:49Motion passes. Thank you. Item 2,

37:51recommend approval of gratifying um

37:54ratifying and approving agendas number

37:56one, two, three, and four for parks

37:59phase 1B and rejecting the bids. Any

38:03questions? If not, I take a motion in a

38:05second.

38:21Okay, the motion passes. Thank you. Item

38:242P, recommend approval of amendment

38:26number two to the architectural services

38:28contract with Populace, Inc. for the

38:30maps 4 multi-purpose stadium um for an

38:34increase of $925,860.

38:38>> So, kind of similar to the youth center

38:40situation, uh we had a contract that was

38:43negotiated based on on earlier funding

38:48and subsequently more funding has been

38:50added to the project. architect has just

38:53been plowing along, working great and

38:56being a great partner, but it's time to

38:58get square with him with all this

39:01additional funding. So, this is

39:03negotiated with C with the architect.

39:06>> Okay, any questions? If not, I would

39:09take a motion and a second to approve.

39:22Motion passes. Item 2 Q recommend

39:25approval of amendment number two to the

39:27architectural services contract with

39:29Alfred Monah and Morris for the

39:32maps for family justice center for an

39:35increase of $12,240.

39:39>> If you [clears throat] recall last month

39:40we approved a new cook hood in there. We

39:46because we have the money and able to

39:47add that something that was value

39:49engineered out and this is to compensate

39:52the architect for the design of that.

39:53There was uh plumbing issues,

39:55architectural issues, structural things

39:57that needed to be adjusted.

39:59>> Okay. Any questions? If not, I would

40:02take a motion and a second to approve.

40:16And the motion passes. Thank you. Item

40:182R, recommend approval of amendment

40:20number one to the MAPS for homelessness

40:22program operating agreement with the

40:25Oklahoma City Public Property Authority

40:27and Oklahoma City Housing Authority.

40:30>> So, this is our our first amendment to

40:33what was established earlier. Greg Shen

40:35is going to take you through what's in

40:37this amendment. Good morning, Greg. How

40:39are you?

40:40>> Good morning.

40:42Nice cool morning to get started today.

40:44So, weather's wonderful right now.

40:46>> Um, can you go to the next slide,

40:48please?

40:49>> So, I'm here to talk about the first

40:52amendment to our operating agreement and

40:55I'll draw your attention to the projects

40:58that are uh that were relevant to this

41:01discussion and to the amendment. Again,

41:03these are the overarching goals of the

41:06program under the operating agreement.

41:09500 units of supportive housing, 1,500

41:12units of renovated public housing, and

41:15150 units of workforce housing. This

41:18amendment does not change any of these

41:21goals. Next slide, please. These are the

41:24locations of the investment areas and

41:27the again the amendment does not change

41:29any of the project locations or any of

41:32the investment areas um that you've

41:34already seen in previous uh

41:36presentations. Next slide please. This

41:39is the summary project schedule. All the

41:42projects on this on this schedule are

41:44current. We have four projects under

41:47construction right now. That is the

41:49preliminary site work and utility

41:52relocation at Crestston Park. This is in

41:55advance of the vertical um construction,

41:59but uh Crestston Park, we're doing the

42:01early [clears throat] demo and abatement

42:03and utility relocation. So, that work is

42:05going on right now. If you drive up MLK

42:09at uh Northeast 29th and 28th Streets,

42:13um you'll see that Vita Nova at 1800

42:16East Reno, the motel conversion for

42:18permanent supportive housing is under

42:20construction right now. They're making a

42:22lot of progress on that project. Um

42:25WeHost Alliance is under construction

42:28right now. That project is right across

42:30from the homeless alliance um day

42:33center. It's uh right there on the

42:35corner at Virginia and Fourth Street. Um

42:38you'll see that they're doing a lot of

42:40site work right now. They're getting

42:41ready to pour the footings on that

42:43project. And then uh in South Oklahoma

42:46City, um the West Haven Flats project.

42:49Uh that project is under construction

42:52right now and it's moving very quickly.

42:54So I just want to say that these time

42:56schedules are all still current right

42:58now and we have four projects underway.

43:01Next slide, please. So the projects that

43:04were coming under the amendment here is

43:06to come back and get formal approval to

43:09reallocate additional dollars to

43:12projects and get formal approval of

43:15those increased dollar amounts. This

43:17does not change any of the of the total

43:20allocation in the first or second

43:22allocation of $10.7 million. There's no

43:25overall budget change. [snorts] dollars

43:28were were reallocated to increase the

43:31amounts of MAPS funding committed to

43:34three projects. This was all reported to

43:37you previously. However, we took this to

43:39the subcommittee on Tuesday to get

43:41formal approval and now we're here in

43:43front of the citizens advisory board to

43:46give the same to give the same project

43:48updates and get approval of the same

43:51same again there's no change in the

43:52allocation to the first or second

43:55allocation. So the the original

43:57commitment at Vita Nova was was $3

44:00million and then we increased that by

44:04four $400,000.

44:06Um and so we ran into a lot of u

44:10inflation increases. We started

44:13incurring fuel delivery sir charges

44:16because of the price of uh of fuel. And

44:19then we had build America by America.

44:22That's what they call Baba. We have

44:23compliance with that. and that

44:27projects ac across the country are

44:29seeing about a 20% increase in the

44:31impact of construction projects related

44:34to Baba. So all of that forced us to

44:37allocate $400,000 of additional funds

44:40out of the second allocation. The first

44:43allocation of $10.7 million. We

44:45committed $3 million to the project.

44:47When we got the second allocation, we

44:49had to increase that by $400,000.

44:52Next slide, please. Um, at Oakrove

44:55Apartments, we originally um committed

44:58$1 million out of the first allocation

45:01to do the Oakrove project. Then we got

45:04our financing plan from the Oklahoma

45:07Housing Finance Agency. We got uh $43

45:11million in low-income housing tax

45:13credits and 30 $30 million in bonds

45:15allocated to this project. then that let

45:18us bring the financing plan forward to

45:20the Department of Housing and Urban

45:21Development because it's still public

45:23housing and we're converting it to

45:25affordable housing. Uh so the $1 million

45:28was really just a placeholder until I

45:30had a total development cost. Then in

45:33the second allocation, uh we're

45:35committing another $2 million to this

45:38project, which has a total development

45:40cost right now of over $115 million.

45:44Again, this is a project that's on 47

45:46acres. It's 288 units currently.

45:50[snorts] We have a partnership with ONQ

45:52where they're going to do commercial

45:53development across from the Dell plant

45:55on Southwest 15th Street. And then we're

45:58going to do new construction and add

46:00back 36 units on the same footprint. So,

46:03it will go from 288 units to 306 units

46:07in the total project.

46:09Uh, next slide, please. WeHost Alliance

46:13is uh is another permanent supportive

46:15housing project. It's a partnership with

46:17WeHost Alliance and uh when we were

46:20closing with Armstrong Bank, they had a

46:23for the construction loan, the project

46:25had a $350,000

46:27budget gap, they requested additional

46:30$350,000

46:32from the MAPS funding to be able to

46:35close on that construction loan with

46:38Armstrong Bank. So we committed another

46:40$350,000. So all of this was in the

46:43second allocation. They got no money in

46:45the first allocation. So in the second

46:47allocation, we originally committed 100

46:50$1,350,000.

46:52We added $350,000 of maps to bring one

46:55$1.7 million to the total commitment. Um

46:59so those are the increased explanations

47:02for each of these three projects. And

47:04now um next slide, please. I'm just

47:06bringing them forward uh for formal

47:08approval. Again, here's what we're

47:10looking at. The reallocation of $400,000

47:14retroactive to May of 2026 for Vita

47:17Nova, $2 million retroactive to August

47:20of 2026 for Oak Grove, and $350,000

47:24retroactive to May 26, May of 2026 for

47:28WeHost Alliance. This shows you in the

47:31second allocation, all of the funds are

47:33committed to projects. There are no

47:35remaining funds in the second

47:36allocation.
