He said he sent you an email. 02:29.430 --> 02:32.190 Temple McKinnon: Oh yeah, I don't have that it goes out. 02:33.360 --> 02:33.690 Suzanne Schwartz: A 02:33.750 --> 02:36.180 Temple McKinnon: Uniquely, September 24 it went out to folks. 02:36.960 --> 02:37.230 Suzanne Scott: This 02:37.410 --> 02:44.070 Suzanne Schwartz: And Vicki just resent it to everyone.

It won't let me access the 04:09.420 --> 04:11.640 Vicki Read: settings on it so 04:11.880 --> 04:16.260 Temple McKinnon: I emailed it was sent September 24 maybe can find that I'll respond to him again. 04:16.740 --> 04:23.280 Suzanne Schwartz: Maybe I wonder if we want to send that to everyone just to remind them to look for that mail. 04:24.450 --> 04:25.170 Suzanne Scott: OK. OK. 04:25.260 --> 04:41.010 Gail Peek: Ok this is Gail, I had that same problem. And what I did was just went through my emails using a search zoom found it and clicked in, that's how I got in. So without having to re-email everyone 04:42.000 --> 04:42.750 Gail Peek: that they can just 04:43.770 --> 04:51.330 Gail Peek: use Zoom as the search and gone through the emails and from a past IPC meeting login and 04:53.280 --> 04:55.560 Suzanne Scott: Okay, well, I am hopefully he'll get on. I 04:56.910 --> 05:01.020 Suzanne Scott: He'll hopefully be able to search Vicki's name or the Zoom, like you said, 05:03.240 --> 05:05.190 Melanie Barnes: I think it was last Thursday over sent out 05:05.460 --> 05:06.570 Suzanne Scott: Yeah yeah 05:06.630 --> 05:09.300 Melanie Barnes: Under Vicki's name. Suzanne Scott: Yeah. the 23rd, 24th. 05:10.380 --> 05:16.230 Suzanne Scott: Okay, but we do have a quorum, so let's go ahead and get started for public comment. So 05:17.820 --> 05:23.790 Suzanne Scott: if we could determine if we have any members of the public that would like to 05:25.170 --> 05:28.080 Suzanne Scott: share public comment. I think she's going to get. Oops. 05:29.160 --> 05:30.630 Suzanne Scott: It's kind of black. Hold on. 05:30.780 --> 05:33.780 Temple McKinnon: Yeah, sorry. I was trying to send an email to folks. I need to 05:33.900 --> 05:37.980 Temple McKinnon: bail on that. It's not liking what I'm doing with the shared screen. 05:42.120 --> 05:44.280 Suzanne Schwartz: Or we can there we, you know, 05:44.880 --> 05:46.200 Suzanne Schwartz: If anyone wants 05:46.800 --> 05:52.230 Suzanne Schwartz: If anyone wants to to make a public comment, Vicki, if you could just 05:52.260 --> 05:53.520 Suzanne Schwartz: unmute people and let 05:53.520 --> 05:53.970 Suzanne Schwartz: them 05:54.240 --> 05:56.910 Suzanne Schwartz: people could speak up if they want to make any comments. 05:57.660 --> 05:59.250 Vicki Read: They're all unmuted. Suzanne Schwartz: Okay. 06:00.750 --> 06:02.250 Suzanne Scott: Any public comments. Okay. 06:09.390 --> 06:24.720 Suzanne Scott: I know we have public comment at the end, but just we don't have any public comment at this time, then I would like to welcome Kathleen Jackson from the Water Development Board to address the group so 06:25.740 --> 06:27.390 Suzanne Scott: Good afternoon, Kathleen. The floor is yours. 06:27.480 --> 06:28.290 Kathleen Jackson: Good afternoon. 06:28.620 --> 06:36.750 Kathleen Jackson: Thank you. Suzanne and it's a pleasure to be here and just wanted to thank everybody for their hard work and for their leadership. I mean, we've got 06:37.290 --> 06:39.300 Kathleen Jackson: the power hitters on the 06:39.750 --> 06:44.400 Kathleen Jackson: on the committee kind of representing communities across Texas. So just 06:44.430 --> 07:06.870 Kathleen Jackson: thank you for rolling up your sleeves and moving forward and really looking forward to, you know, hearing what you've kind of developed and further kind of reading the report. But the main reason why I'm here today is to recognize one of our own to recognize Suzanne because she is retiring. 07:07.440 --> 07:08.910 Kathleen Jackson: And she has been 07:08.970 --> 07:13.950 Kathleen Jackson: a tremendous support in Region L, as well as chairing 07:15.180 --> 07:16.530 Kathleen Jackson: and chairing this group. 07:16.740 --> 07:20.340 Kathleen Jackson: And I think they're probably many things that 07:20.370 --> 07:31.590 Kathleen Jackson: you know folks across the state, and particularly, you know, in this call could, could you know could call out in terms of the contributions that Suzanne has made. In my mind 07:32.670 --> 07:42.090 Kathleen Jackson: you know, oftentimes, when you're engaged in regional planning, there are challenges as well as there are opportunities and 07:42.390 --> 07:42.990 Kathleen Jackson: you know, every 07:43.050 --> 07:51.660 Kathleen Jackson: every time I've attended Region L, everything that I hear, Suzanne's leadership has been kind of directed towards turning the challenges 07:52.140 --> 07:53.400 Kathleen Jackson: into opportunities. 07:53.460 --> 08:02.940 Kathleen Jackson: And, you know, taking what you know sometimes might seem to be a monumental task and making it something that at least from the outside is perceived as 08:02.940 --> 08:11.610 Kathleen Jackson: being something very simple. Always wanting to listen and hear others thoughts and ideas and share with them. 08:12.840 --> 08:14.220 Kathleen Jackson: I think maybe the 08:14.430 --> 08:17.040 Kathleen Jackson: greatest example of sharing was 08:18.270 --> 08:22.230 Kathleen Jackson: Representative Dade Phelan. I guess he kind of heard of the work that the 08:22.950 --> 08:24.660 Kathleen Jackson: San Antonio River Authority was doing 08:24.780 --> 08:26.430 Kathleen Jackson: in flood and made a visit. 08:26.910 --> 08:30.720 Kathleen Jackson: And just basically said, hey, they are 08:30.930 --> 08:42.570 Kathleen Jackson: addressing the issue. They are moving forward. They're doing so many of the best practices, just kind of wish everybody could have the opportunity to go by and see what they were doing. And I think that kind of happened. 08:42.690 --> 08:44.940 Kathleen Jackson: And I know that we as the Board went 08:45.240 --> 08:52.830 Kathleen Jackson: and visited with Suzanne. She was very welcoming, explained everything. And I think the door opened many times and 08:53.190 --> 09:01.530 Kathleen Jackson: you know her staff and you know the folks at the River Authority, just, you know, were tremendously helpful and kind of sharing what they've been doing for years. So 09:02.370 --> 09:20.520 Kathleen Jackson: again to me that that kind of points toward in is is very representative of how she approached so many things, you know, during her tenure, not as general, not only as general manager of of the River Authority, but also leadership within Region L. I think my absolute favorite Suzanne 09:20.550 --> 09:26.160 Kathleen Jackson: story, though, is that when I was I was making a trip to see 09:26.550 --> 09:36.120 Kathleen Jackson: a new wastewater treatment plant that had been built by the River Authority and I had received the Silver Envision Award 09:36.750 --> 09:49.200 Kathleen Jackson: from the Institute of Sustainable Infrastructure so a very sought after, prestigious award. And so I said, well, I've just got to go see this plant. And when I arrived, we were waiting on the 09:49.530 --> 09:52.950 Kathleen Jackson: porch for people to get there and I turned around and there was Suzanne. And 09:53.430 --> 09:57.390 Kathleen Jackson: I thought wow for the general manager, you know, to come all the way out here just 09:57.480 --> 09:58.920 Kathleen Jackson: to have some time to kind of 09:59.460 --> 10:01.410 Kathleen Jackson: I think in her mind kind of show off 10:01.650 --> 10:14.400 Kathleen Jackson: not just the facility because there was, you know, a tremendous amount of emerging technology associated with this, with this treatment plant that was new and different and I think others on down the road will follow suit with. 10:14.700 --> 10:17.100 Kathleen Jackson: But also, I think, to showcase her staff. 10:17.130 --> 10:24.870 Kathleen Jackson: I mean they had taken very deliberate steps to engage their operating staff into the design of the plant. 10:25.380 --> 10:39.390 Kathleen Jackson: As well as they had a unique program for bringing in a young people working with them while they were going to school to be operators and then, you know, kind of hiring them in. So, you know, to me, just kind of that mix of 10:39.450 --> 10:41.070 Kathleen Jackson: not just the technology 10:41.340 --> 10:58.470 Kathleen Jackson: but the people and the talent that went along with it. And you know everything that I think we look at in terms of what Suzanne has contributed to water world really kind of exemplifies that. So without further ado, and I put a little mark in my living room so that I can go sit in the 10:58.680 --> 10:59.850 Kathleen Jackson: stand in the right place. 11:01.650 --> 11:02.370 Kathleen Jackson: So, 11:04.020 --> 11:09.300 Kathleen Jackson: Here we are. Suzanne, we would like to present you virtually 11:09.600 --> 11:11.160 Kathleen Jackson: with a certificate from the 11:11.160 --> 11:21.600 Kathleen Jackson: Texas Water Development Board and again I'll read it extends our gratitude to Suzanne Scott for her years of dedicated leadership as chair of the Region L Regional Water Planning Group. 11:22.050 --> 11:29.160 Kathleen Jackson: And her commitment to Texas Water and it's signed by our chairman Peter Lake, Board member Brooke Paup and myself so 11:29.280 --> 11:29.730 Suzanne Scott: Thank you. 11:29.760 --> 11:35.370 Kathleen Jackson: Thank you very much. Suzanne and I don't know if everybody on on the call can just give her a kind of a little round of applause. 11:36.270 --> 11:36.750 Suzanne Scott: Oh, y'all are sweet. Thank you. 11:37.320 --> 11:37.680 Kathleen Jackson: Thank you, Suzanne. 11:38.880 --> 11:39.930 Suzanne Scott: Thank you very much. 11:40.650 --> 11:49.560 Suzanne Scott: Well, I appreciate all that. you know, I don't like to be recognized, so that's always uncomfortable for me. But thank you very, very much. I really appreciate it. I've enjoyed everything that 11:50.460 --> 12:02.220 Suzanne Scott: I've been able to do here of course as a River Authority, she's right. I mean, the thing I focus on the most are the people here, we have such fabulous staff and such dedicated, passionate professionals. 12:02.760 --> 12:10.320 Suzanne Scott: That, you know, bring it to work every day for the health of the basin. So they're really they're the shining star here. 12:11.400 --> 12:18.150 Suzanne Scott: But Region L has been awesome. I've really enjoyed that very much. And of course, I'm glad that we're able to be here today and to 12:19.230 --> 12:22.860 Suzanne Scott: bring that bring all of these leaders together to really 12:24.060 --> 12:28.620 Suzanne Scott: bring this great these great recommendations forward. I think that's 12:28.800 --> 12:31.200 Suzanne Scott: a nice culmination of my leadership 12:31.230 --> 12:40.290 Suzanne Scott: on the Region L to bring that here and bring these ideas forward. But I will still, even though I'm retiring from the River Authority and retiring from 12:40.680 --> 12:51.030 Suzanne Scott: the public sector, I will be going to the nonprofit sector and will be the State Director for the Nature Conservancy here in Texas. So I'm still going to be working on environmental issues. 12:51.660 --> 13:03.750 Suzanne Scott: A lot of water stuff as well on a on a really more on the philanthropic side. So I'm sure some of you will see me again, just with a different hat on. But thank you very much, Kathleen. I appreciate that very much. 13:05.310 --> 13:15.750 Suzanne Scott: So with that, let's move into the meeting agenda and we have minutes from the September 15th meeting. 13:17.190 --> 13:18.000 Suzanne Scott: Was there any 13:19.080 --> 13:23.490 Suzanne Scott: additions, corrections to the minutes that need to be offered at this time. 13:25.140 --> 13:30.000 Temple McKinnon: Yes, I received an edit from Gail that was 13:31.500 --> 13:43.350 Temple McKinnon: giving a plural to Jim Thompson's concern. So she indicated it was concerns that was on page five of the minutes that were distributed to you on the first paragraph first sentence. 13:45.570 --> 13:45.810 Suzanne Scott: Okay. 13:48.600 --> 13:49.320 Suzanne Scott: All right. 13:50.490 --> 13:56.610 Suzanne Scott: So with that correction, do I have motion for the approval of the minutes as corrected? Gail Peek: So moved. 13:59.220 --> 13:59.880 Steve Walthour: Second, 14:00.120 --> 14:01.680 Suzanne Scott: Okay, Gail moves, Steve 14:01.680 --> 14:02.550 seconds. 14:04.230 --> 14:07.680 Suzanne Scott: All those if there's any opposition, please 14:08.730 --> 14:10.350 Suzanne Scott: let us know your opposition. 14:12.300 --> 14:15.420 Suzanne Scott: Alright, not hearing any. Great the minutes are approved. 14:16.500 --> 14:25.980 Suzanne Scott: So next big agenda item is to consider adoption of the final report and authorize submit all of that report to the Water Development Board. 14:27.210 --> 14:34.140 Suzanne Scott: So this is the opportunity for us to discuss the report. I'm certain that all of you 14:34.800 --> 14:36.450 Suzanne Scott: had the opportunity to read it. 14:36.540 --> 14:37.110 And 14:38.910 --> 14:50.160 Suzanne Scott: I know I guess Temple and or Suzanne, you can sort of talk through the you know who you heard from you know kind of what changed that sort of thing. It just did high level. 14:50.520 --> 14:50.940 But 14:52.590 --> 14:56.070 Suzanne Scott: Is there, I know that there were some 14:58.050 --> 14:59.730 Suzanne Scott: some changes and some adds 15:00.150 --> 15:00.510 to the 15:02.130 --> 15:09.930 Suzanne Scott: interregional coordination committee, as well as the I think the fifth a section on 15:10.410 --> 15:11.700 Suzanne Scott: interregional conflict. 15:12.450 --> 15:15.510 Suzanne Scott: So Suzanne, did you want to highlight those? 15:17.910 --> 15:18.630 Suzanne Scott: You're muted. 15:25.560 --> 15:26.430 Suzanne Schwartz: All right. Thank you. 15:27.780 --> 15:37.500 Suzanne Schwartz: So we'll will start the interregional conflict. Of course we, we added all of the, Temple went through and diligently summarized all of the recommendations which 15:38.250 --> 15:58.110 Suzanne Schwartz: I thought was a massive undertaking and I think it made the report, much more readable. And of course you know that that Kelley added a summary of the committee work. And the enhancing interregional coordination section, Gail, Kevin and Jim 15:59.310 --> 16:05.610 Suzanne Schwartz: worked on issues that Kevin had raised regarding tone of the of the matter. 16:06.780 --> 16:20.520 Suzanne Schwartz: At the last meeting and ultimately ended up doing some wording changes that everyone all three of them agreed on that provided a little bit more precision relating to the language specifically 16:21.840 --> 16:26.220 Suzanne Schwartz: I think a lot especially dealing with it, talking about how 16:27.420 --> 16:40.950 Suzanne Schwartz: it dealt with both how to responsibly develop in the States water resources through identification and of opportunities and also to mitigate or eliminate conflict between regions and specifically 16:41.760 --> 16:48.600 Suzanne Schwartz: what was much more specific about the language relating to the types of conflict that would be 16:49.980 --> 17:01.860 Suzanne Schwartz: reviewed by the Regional Water Planning Groups referencing it back to the Water Development Board language in its rules. So that's that section. And then there were some language that 17:02.910 --> 17:19.560 Suzanne Schwartz: was drafted that Mark worked on on both the viability and also justification of projects in the state water plan that's under the planning, planning water resources for the state as a whole. So those were the changes. 17:19.890 --> 17:21.660 Suzanne Scott: Those were two items that 17:22.680 --> 17:35.190 Suzanne Scott: Representative Larson, Chairman Larson brought up specifically and that we had agreed at the last meeting to come up with some some language to address those two items and thank you Mark for working through that. Appreciate it. 17:37.290 --> 17:42.480 Suzanne Schwartz: So those were really the only major such I would call substantive type changes most 17:43.560 --> 17:57.060 Suzanne Schwartz: and the rest really was a lot of editing, making it readable. You know, one voice, adding acronyms and short forms of words just a lot of editing and I really want to thank 17:57.750 --> 18:11.760 Suzanne Schwartz: Everyone who did that especially Suzanne and Kelley you all were very involved in that process. And I got comments from Melanie on that and David let us know that the report was fine. So 18:13.050 --> 18:24.000 Suzanne Schwartz: with with some luck, we'll, we'll have everyone an approval. But I guess the next question is, does anybody have anything they want to maybe to to change relative to the report as it exists. 18:26.550 --> 18:31.170 Suzanne Scott: Any comments? We did as y'all allowed us to do with the action last time, 18:31.800 --> 18:44.670 Suzanne Scott: we did change out and change around a little bit the, the order of things. I mean, I know we had an original outline. But as we were reading it, it seemed kind of choppy. So we tried to make it read a little bit better. I hope that 18:46.290 --> 18:54.900 Suzanne Scott: I hope you all agree that that the order did kind of clean up some of the, the order of some of the work that we did in the committees. 18:56.520 --> 18:57.330 Suzanne Scott: But any other 18:58.710 --> 19:00.540 Suzanne Scott: questions, comments. 19:00.630 --> 19:17.460 Gail Peek: Suzanne, one one thought I had is, if there are some minor things like grammatical things, are those things we can just give to Temple for editing, as opposed to taking up the time of the committee, and I'm talking about spacing, things like that. Very, very minor. 19:18.180 --> 19:34.710 Mark Evans: Well, Madam Chair, I was gonna ask when we get to the point of making a motion and a second to approve the report itself, I was going to ask if it would be appropriate to include some language in the motion to authorize making any typographical word uses changes that are needed 19:35.760 --> 19:39.180 Mark Evans: for the final report if that would be appropriate to include that in a motion 19:39.780 --> 19:42.120 Suzanne Scott: Yeah, absolutely. I think you're right, because 19:43.830 --> 19:51.330 Suzanne Scott: they're going to have, you know, some fresh eyes look at this too, again, just to make sure before we go to print, so to speak, that all that taken care of. So, yes. 19:52.650 --> 19:56.250 Suzanne Scott: That would definitely be appropriate for the motion. 19:58.290 --> 20:07.200 Suzanne Scott: Any other comments or concerns about, you know, we do want to represent that we're asking for when we ask for approval of this, we're going to ask each of you. 20:07.620 --> 20:17.250 Suzanne Scott: to sign and we do want this to be something that all of us can present as a unified group to the Water Development Board. 20:18.300 --> 20:28.980 Suzanne Scott: Now obviously, that doesn't mean we said at the very beginning, if that doesn't mean that if someone wants to say they don't approve this, that's fine. I mean, I don't think that we're trying to force you into approval. 20:29.430 --> 20:36.360 Suzanne Scott: But we, if you have concerns that haven't been voiced and we would like to hear them. Because again, 20:37.830 --> 20:45.090 Suzanne Scott: all of you have worked very hard in the committees and brought forth recommendations and, you know, there's lots of recommendations here 20:46.830 --> 20:56.010 Suzanne Scott: that the Water Development Board will have to go back and do some work on to, you know, put them into action, so to speak. If the Water Development Board approves that and wants them to but. 20:57.480 --> 21:00.780 Suzanne Scott: So any other questions or comments from anybody? 21:07.560 --> 21:18.030 Suzanne Scott: Okay, I'm not hearing anything. So are we ready to take a guess we're ready to entertain a motion. So Mark, would you like to present your motion. 21:19.260 --> 21:40.110 Mark Evans: Thank you, Madam Chair, I would move that the Council would approve the report, the final report that as submitted this afternoon with the motion would include that the chair would be authorized in conjunction with Water Development Board staff to make any typographical 21:40.110 --> 21:40.320 Mark Evans: or word usage 21:41.580 --> 21:42.780 Mark Evans: changes that are needed. 21:43.410 --> 21:44.220 Mark Evans: for the final 21:44.460 --> 21:46.530 Mark Evans: report prior to printing. 21:48.060 --> 21:49.500 Mark Evans: I hope I covered everything in that. 21:49.530 --> 21:53.400 Suzanne Scott: Can we add to that, and then submit to the Water Development Board. 21:53.460 --> 21:54.180 Mark Evans: Yes. 21:55.980 --> 21:56.280 Suzanne Scott: All right. 21:56.400 --> 21:59.130 Mark Evans: And submit it to the Water Development Board. Suzanne Scott: Perfect. 21:59.760 --> 22:02.400 Gail Peek: I second. Suzanne Scott: All right, Gail seconds. 22:03.630 --> 22:04.980 Suzanne Scott: All right. Any more discussion. 22:07.140 --> 22:10.770 Suzanne Scott: I think just for the for the fact that this is a big 22:12.120 --> 22:23.910 Suzanne Scott: action that we're all taking, I would appreciate if Temple could just call through the are the members of the committee, and each person take a vote and signify your approval. So we're doing this officially. 22:24.660 --> 22:25.920 Temple McKinnon: Yes, I will do that. 22:25.980 --> 22:28.710 Temple McKinnon: Sure thing. Steve Walthour. 22:29.550 --> 22:29.850 Steve Walthour: Aye. 22:32.010 --> 22:36.030 Temple McKinnon: Russell Schreiber is absent. Kevin Ward. 22:37.590 --> 22:37.980 Kevin Ward: Aye. 22:40.650 --> 22:47.070 Temple McKinnon: I guess I'll add for the record, I got an email from Russell Schreiber that he was good with the report and sends his regrets he couldn't make it. 22:48.840 --> 22:51.540 Temple McKinnon: Jim Thompson. I don't believe he's been able to join us yet. 22:54.180 --> 22:56.400 Temple McKinnon: Scott Reinert, I don't believe he's on. 22:58.410 --> 22:59.370 Temple McKinnon: Allison Strube. 23:01.560 --> 23:12.420 Suzanne Schwartz: Temple. Please note that Jim Thompson, talked to me yesterday and he's at our the Region D meeting right now but noted that he was good with the report. 23:12.510 --> 23:13.020 Temple McKinnon: Okay, will do. 23:15.180 --> 23:15.930 Temple McKinnon: Gail Peek. 23:16.500 --> 23:16.890 Gail Peek: Aye. 23:17.970 --> 23:18.990 Temple McKinnon: Mark Evans. 23:19.230 --> 23:21.480 Mark Evans: Aye. Temple McKinnon: Kelley Holcomb. 23:21.960 --> 23:22.320 Kelley Holcomb: Aye. 23:23.520 --> 23:24.240 Temple McKinnon: Ray Buck. 23:27.480 --> 23:28.410 Temple McKinnon: David Wheelock. 23:28.770 --> 23:29.190 David Wheelock: Aye. 23:30.210 --> 23:31.140 Temple McKinnon: Suzanne Scott. 23:31.650 --> 23:33.960 Suzanne Scott: Aye. Temple McKinnon: Tomas Rodriguez. 23:36.750 --> 23:38.130 Suzanne Scott: You're muted, Tomas. 23:43.980 --> 23:44.970 Tomas Rodriguez: Sorry, yes. Aye. 23:46.020 --> 23:48.240 Temple McKinnon: Thanks. Carl Crull. 23:51.630 --> 23:52.740 Temple McKinnon: Carl I think you're muted. Carl Crull: Aye. 23:55.500 --> 23:57.840 Temple McKinnon: Thank you. Melanie Barnes. 23:58.560 --> 24:01.050 Melanie Barnes: Aye. Temple McKinnon: And Patrick Brzozowski. Patrick Brzozowski: Aye. 24:04.650 --> 24:04.980 Temple McKinnon: All right. 24:05.490 --> 24:07.260 Suzanne Scott: Great. Yay. 24:08.460 --> 24:15.540 Suzanne Scott: A round of applause. Congratulations. We have a final report that's been approved. 24:17.280 --> 24:22.380 Suzanne Scott: And again, I can't say enough, I know Kelley and I both are just so 24:22.440 --> 24:25.170 Suzanne Scott: appreciative of all the time that y'all took, 24:25.290 --> 24:42.300 Suzanne Scott: the chairs of the committees Mark and Steve and Gail, thank you so much for your leadership as well as all the members of this Council who participated in the subcommittees and have given so many hours to this process as we said, when we were all gathering 24:43.620 --> 24:47.640 Suzanne Scott: this was on a very, very fast time frame. And we were able to get it done. 24:48.900 --> 24:56.340 Suzanne Scott: There's good and bad to that that's going to now tell Kathleen that they can give short timeframes for any other committee to get major work done. 24:56.700 --> 24:57.630 Kelley Holcomb: No, please don't 24:57.960 --> 25:00.120 Melanie Barnes: No, no. 25:00.750 --> 25:11.640 Suzanne Scott: No, I'm just kidding. I made that point in my conclusion. I think that there there was there was a lot that I don't think this would have happened if we were not able to meet like this, there would have been no way. 25:12.090 --> 25:23.820 Suzanne Scott: We could not have done this, if we had to go and meet in a location and everyone come together and be able to do this, it would have, I think it would have been impossible to make that happen. So 25:24.810 --> 25:36.330 Suzanne Scott: again, thank you so much and thanks so much to the staff. Temple your people your staff is awesome. And they have just been done tremendous job throughout this entire process and have been so responsive, every time we asked for something 25:36.660 --> 25:40.650 Suzanne Scott: you were Johnny on the spot and we had it right away. So we appreciate that very much. 25:40.920 --> 25:41.580 Temple McKinnon: Thanks a lot. 25:41.970 --> 25:42.630 Suzanne Scott: Thank you for that. 25:43.980 --> 25:50.010 Suzanne Scott: Alright, so now we need to talk about the next steps in the process. Temple, you're going to outline that? 25:53.850 --> 26:05.580 Temple McKinnon: I will do that. So as Suzanne mentioned there is a, well in your draft report you saw a signature sheet so we intend to route that to you all by DocuSign following this meeting. 26:07.380 --> 26:19.200 Temple McKinnon: I think it's up to y'all have any future grammatical edits we want to receive we're totally open to that but know that our communications shop is going to, we're going to pass it off to them. 26:21.030 --> 26:27.660 Temple McKinnon: I was intending to do that right after this meeting, seeing as there's no edits discussed in this meeting. So 26:29.520 --> 26:37.680 Temple McKinnon: I guess if anybody has, Gail you mentioned you had some changes you wanted to send that were minor, if y'all want to send those my way 26:39.180 --> 26:47.100 Temple McKinnon: today, if you have them compiled, that would be great. And I want to send it on to our folks to finalize and get going. And Suzanne and 26:47.460 --> 27:00.900 Temple McKinnon: Kelley, what's also routing through DocuSign is the front matter of that report, the two of you have signatures spaces on a letter of submitted to us. So just the two have you will have two things to sign on what's routing to you through DocuSign. 27:00.930 --> 27:20.430 Suzanne Scott: And Temple, just for the I guess just protocol here for those members of the committee who are not here today, but still would like to be shown signing this document, is that possible if they weren't here for the vote? I just don't know. Is there a 27:21.690 --> 27:23.070 Suzanne Scott: protocol issue with that. 27:24.270 --> 27:25.980 Temple McKinnon: It's a good question. Um, 27:26.490 --> 27:34.860 Kelley Holcomb: I would think the answer would be yes, unless they have a dissenting opinion associated with the report, but I don't think that's the case that we are generally an agreement with it. 27:35.490 --> 27:38.880 Temple McKinnon: I can put I can put some language at the bottom 27:39.930 --> 27:44.640 Temple McKinnon: that with those signatures indicate as members approving of the report, however, 27:46.920 --> 27:54.630 Temple McKinnon: you know if they weren't present to take a vote, but there was no dissension received otherwise I'll figure out some legal appropriately legal language. 27:54.840 --> 27:56.310 Mark Evans: I think I think when they 27:56.910 --> 27:59.730 Mark Evans: sign the report that that signifies their approval 27:59.820 --> 28:00.600 Mark Evans: even though there weren't 28:00.660 --> 28:01.140 Kelley Holcomb: Agreed. 28:01.320 --> 28:04.170 Mark Evans: for an actual vote. I think it's two separate pieces. It's the vote 28:04.590 --> 28:09.900 Mark Evans: to approve the report and then the signing the actual report. That's just my opinion. 28:10.530 --> 28:22.230 Suzanne Scott: I would think you're probably right. I mean, the signing of the report is essentially sign, you know, putting your name to something that we're submitting versus the actual official vote for the Minutes and that sort of thing. 28:22.590 --> 28:32.340 Temple McKinnon: Okay. Suzanne Scott: If your lawyers agreed Temple, I would, I would like to have every slot filled on the signature page if at all possible, even if they were not here today to take the action. 28:32.790 --> 28:39.660 Temple McKinnon: Okay, I'll put a message, indicating that and whatever routes as it routes to to y'all through DocuSign. 28:40.470 --> 28:58.260 Kelley Holcomb: So Temple, I've got a small question. I hope I'm not the only one. But if I am so be it. DocuSign, we've never, I've never used DocuSign, is there any special instructions or issues or is it going to be self explanatory when the the invitation email comes. 29:00.510 --> 29:06.480 Temple McKinnon: In my experience, it's pretty self explanatory, but I will definitely send you all instructions 29:07.500 --> 29:08.820 Temple McKinnon: separate from the email 29:09.210 --> 29:12.870 Melanie Barnes: That's my, that's my recollection too when I've gotten things to sign. 29:14.100 --> 29:15.420 Melanie Barnes: It's pretty straightforward. 29:16.950 --> 29:19.560 Kelley Holcomb: Okay, but so was Zoom today and ii took me 10 minutes to get on the Zoom call. I don't know what that says about me 29:21.600 --> 29:22.470 Kelley Holcomb: or Zoom, but 29:24.090 --> 29:26.340 Temple McKinnon: I'll send you guys I'll send you some instructions. 29:26.610 --> 29:30.660 Melanie Barnes: Yeah, I had some issues with Zoom too. it's it's cranky today. 29:33.120 --> 29:43.110 Suzanne Scott: Well, and sometimes those DocuSign, I mean, at least it's the first time you get it you if you get maybe Temple will send you an email and then you may need to check your junk. 29:43.320 --> 29:47.790 Suzanne Scott: Just because at times if you've never dealt with it, it'll go into your junk. 29:49.230 --> 29:52.710 Temple McKinnon: And I'll be sending you an email with instructions from me. But just like 29:53.910 --> 29:58.050 Temple McKinnon: my name is not going to be on the DocuSign email that comes to you if that's just an auto generated 29:59.430 --> 30:00.210 Temple McKinnon: separate email. 30:00.720 --> 30:06.330 Suzanne Scott: Yeah I know the ones I've gotten from the Water Development Board sometimes say Water, TWDB or something I think. 30:07.920 --> 30:09.150 Temple McKinnon: Okay. Through contracts. Suzanne Scott: Yeah. 30:11.250 --> 30:12.450 Kelley Holcomb: Kevin, is that your best friend? 30:16.710 --> 30:31.650 Temple McKinnon: So are there other logistics, I guess so y'all know, I'm scheduled to go to a work session to our Bboard October 19th. I believe Suzanne's going to join me for that to just present your report. 30:33.150 --> 30:44.970 Temple McKinnon: Those work sessions, you can access those, those are through Goto Meeting and you can access those on our website. So I'll send you all out a link, an email about that work session that's happening as well. 30:49.170 --> 30:52.530 Temple McKinnon: Are there any other logistics I'm forgetting to cover that you'd like me to do? 30:53.460 --> 30:54.030 Suzanne Scott: Um 30:55.380 --> 31:02.520 Suzanne Scott: You're going to make sure, I guess we asked on the report, that it be submitted to the Water Development Board and then the two 31:04.350 --> 31:07.080 Suzanne Scott: the two chairs. So, chair of 31:08.160 --> 31:17.760 Suzanne Scott: Chair, Chair Perry and Chair Larson and then the Regional Water Planning Group members. Temple McKinnon: Right. Suzanne Scott: So that would be sent 31:20.010 --> 31:22.590 Suzanne Scott: I guess electronically to everyone not hard copy. 31:24.240 --> 31:24.570 Temple McKinnon: Right. 31:24.780 --> 31:25.620 Suzanne Scott: Just electronic 31:26.100 --> 31:27.270 Temple McKinnon: We will do that. Yes. 31:28.710 --> 31:37.080 Suzanne Scott: Who will be, will there be hard copies actually distributed to the members of the Water Development Board or do they get it also electronically? How does that work? 31:39.450 --> 31:40.680 Temple McKinnon: Um, 31:42.330 --> 31:45.810 Temple McKinnon: electronically at least. I haven't talked to our communications folks about 31:46.950 --> 31:53.550 Temple McKinnon: printing what's what's involved with that, but most definitely will get it to them electronically. Suzanne Scott: Yeah. 31:53.610 --> 31:58.440 Suzanne Scott: I mean, yeah, I mean if that if that works. I think that would be fine. I just didn't know what their protocol. 31:58.500 --> 32:01.860 Suzanne Scott: Again, if it Temple McKinnon: Yeah just in this environment it's kind of hard to 32:02.910 --> 32:04.620 Temple McKinnon: to document production so 32:05.700 --> 32:06.270 Temple McKinnon: that's the plan. 32:06.300 --> 32:09.090 Melanie Barnes: Temple, I had a question. When, when is it 32:11.160 --> 32:13.920 Melanie Barnes: appropriate to share it with our own regional groups? 32:16.020 --> 32:28.260 Temple McKinnon: Um, well, I'm gonna we'll email it out to we'll email out the final version to you all and then also to the planning group members because they're all their CC'd on the report. 32:28.410 --> 32:28.650 Melanie Barnes: Okay. 32:31.800 --> 32:39.840 Temple McKinnon: And I expect it to be, I mean it's it's pretty it's pretty baked. I mean, it's gonna be cleaned up a little bit, like I was saying grammatical stuff that some of y'all may have found 32:41.370 --> 32:42.690 Temple McKinnon: and your signature sheet so 32:43.920 --> 32:45.180 Suzanne Schwartz: Kevin. Kevin has something. 32:45.990 --> 32:49.020 Kevin Ward: So what picture are you going to put on the cover of it? I mean is it 32:49.620 --> 32:51.690 Kevin Ward: gonna be some water feature or you know 32:52.680 --> 32:56.190 Temple McKinnon: What's on it now is a picture of the Guadalupe River. Oh, there you go, and Suzanne showing it. 32:57.870 --> 32:58.560 Suzanne Scott: This is what was on the website. 32:59.310 --> 32:59.670 Temple McKinnon: Yeah. 33:00.060 --> 33:03.270 Kevin Ward: Just wondering. Mark Evans: I thought we'd have a picture the status as a whole. 33:07.770 --> 33:11.670 Suzanne Scott: We want to woo them with beauty and then we'll get into the meat. 33:14.160 --> 33:14.970 Steve Walthour: Suzanne. 33:15.600 --> 33:15.900 Suzanne Scott: Yes. 33:16.950 --> 33:20.280 Steve Walthour: So this means we're not having our October 7th meeting, is that correct? 33:21.450 --> 33:28.530 Suzanne Scott: As far as I'm thinking that meeting is now cancelled. So y'all are released from October the seventh. 33:29.730 --> 33:31.500 Suzanne Scott: We got finished faster. Yay. 33:32.610 --> 33:34.680 Suzanne Scott: But I think at this point 33:35.400 --> 33:40.290 Suzanne Scott: I think all the logistics are kind of, Temple sort of went through and 33:41.910 --> 33:52.830 Suzanne Scott: I think we're pretty much down to the wire here as far as making sure that all the final edits are done. But again, I think it's going to be mainly just cleaning it up to make sure that 33:54.690 --> 34:00.660 Suzanne Scott: it's all you know the margins are right, and the spacing is right, and the spelling is right and all that so. 34:02.580 --> 34:06.060 Suzanne Scott: Okay. Anything else anybody have any questions or comments or concerns. 34:07.560 --> 34:08.610 Suzanne Scott: Okay, great. 34:10.830 --> 34:16.530 Suzanne Scott: Before before we go to the last item here, Kelley, did you want to say anything? 34:18.240 --> 34:27.450 Kelley Holcomb: Um, thank you all for your help, Temple, Suzanne, Vicki. I'm glad it's over with. Gotta we got lots of problems in East 34:27.450 --> 34:28.620 Kelley Holcomb: Texas to deal with and 34:29.700 --> 34:36.300 Kelley Holcomb: this has been a pretty big consumer of time for all of us. So good work. Glad glad we're done. Thank you all. 34:36.630 --> 34:39.300 Suzanne Schwartz: And it looks like Allison just joined us. 34:39.360 --> 34:39.870 Suzanne Scott: Oh, good. 34:40.110 --> 34:40.380 Great. 34:41.430 --> 34:43.590 Allison Strube: Sorry, I was late, the meeting ran long. 34:46.170 --> 34:48.150 Suzanne Scott: Do we want to add, can we again 34:49.110 --> 34:58.020 Suzanne Scott: protocol wise, Mark, can we ask if she would like to be shown voting for the report is it do that before we adjourn. Is that appropriate or no? 34:59.550 --> 35:01.740 Mark Evans: I, I think it would be appropriate 35:03.150 --> 35:04.380 Mark Evans: for Allison to 35:05.760 --> 35:06.930 Mark Evans: have the opportunity to 35:08.610 --> 35:12.240 Mark Evans: show her support for the report since she's present. 35:15.180 --> 35:27.360 Suzanne Scott: Allison, would you like to be, we did the early vote on the adoption of the report and everybody voted in favor and just didn't know if you wanted to be shown in the Minutes voting for the report. 35:28.110 --> 35:34.950 Allison Strube: If that's acceptable to the group, I would. And I do vote in favor of the report after reviewing it. Suzanne Scott: All right. 35:35.130 --> 35:39.540 Suzanne Scott: Perfect. Thank you. We would love to have you voting for. So that's great. 35:40.050 --> 35:40.410 Allison Strube: Thank you. 35:41.550 --> 35:42.270 Temple McKinnon: Allison. 35:42.390 --> 35:48.960 Temple McKinnon: I'll just add since you went there. We're going to route a signature sheet through DocuSign, so we'll be doing that later today. Okay. 35:48.990 --> 35:51.450 Allison Strube: Okay, perfect. Suzanne Scott: Great. Thank you. 35:51.990 --> 36:00.870 Suzanne Scott: All right, well, as Steve has mentioned, there are no future meetings, other than if y'all will want to enjoy the Water Development Board's 36:02.340 --> 36:12.390 Suzanne Scott: work session with me and you can join that through the link that Temple is going to be sending when the Water Development Board meets in their workshop on the 36:13.260 --> 36:14.190 Temple McKinnon: 19th 36:14.280 --> 36:15.840 Temple McKinnon: of October at one o'clock. 36:16.260 --> 36:17.910 Suzanne Scott: 19th of October at one o'clock. 36:19.350 --> 36:28.740 Suzanne Scott: So again, Suzanne Schwartz. Thank you so much for all of your efforts, you were really instrumental in pulling all this together. 36:29.280 --> 36:41.160 Suzanne Scott: Did a lot of work behind the scenes that most of these people aren't even aware of and really appreciate that. You're very good at what you do. So we're all very, very appreciative of your help and 36:41.190 --> 36:42.060 Suzanne Schwartz: It was my pleasure. 36:43.140 --> 36:49.800 Suzanne Schwartz: My pleasure. And thank you. I'm very delighted to all elected chairs and thank you both for all of your work too. 36:50.040 --> 36:51.450 Suzanne Schwartz: And all of you for your work. 36:52.020 --> 36:57.060 Kelley Holcomb: Oh, Suzanne. Did you say we've come to a meeting of the minds in consensus versus 36:58.560 --> 37:01.320 Kelley Holcomb: committee style decision making. Is that a good place to end? 37:08.760 --> 37:09.720 Mark Evans: Oh my goodness. 37:10.440 --> 37:12.450 Kelley Holcomb: Delicate balance. We're achieving that delicate balance. 37:12.990 --> 37:17.790 Suzanne Scott: Delicate balance. That's right. Right. Any other public comment before we adjourn? 37:18.120 --> 37:25.260 Temple McKinnon: Oh, wait, wait. So you had an agenda item regarding future meetings, I know you acknowledged, you didn't want to, you know, the seventh is off. 37:25.770 --> 37:29.220 Temple McKinnon: Is that, that's good. Let's leave it at that, or 37:29.430 --> 37:30.150 Suzanne Scott: Well, I guess. 37:30.210 --> 37:32.130 Kelley Holcomb: Do you need formal action? 37:33.420 --> 37:45.060 Suzanne Scott: I guess the question is this committee, I guess that's right Temple. I forgot. This group is still formed until the state water plan is approved. Is that correct? 37:46.740 --> 37:50.490 Temple McKinnon: Correct until the next state water plan. And that's going to be next summer. 37:51.120 --> 37:57.150 Suzanne Scott: So I guess what we can. So what I would suggest to this group is the fact that 37:58.950 --> 38:08.220 Suzanne Scott: the Water Development Board is probably going to give some type of direction to staff to on all of these various recommendations so they'll probably be some 38:09.810 --> 38:21.570 Suzanne Scott: desire to get the committee back together again at some point to, you know, continue to work on the recommendations or to clarify something or do I would imagine between now and the end of 38:22.410 --> 38:30.360 Suzanne Scott: next year. So, but I don't know what those dates would be now. So I think that we would have to have some future convenings. 38:31.230 --> 38:48.300 Suzanne Scott: And obviously, that means I will not be chairing this group. So that will now fall to Kelley, probably. Or y'all can make a decision about what goes next, but I would imagine, there will be some future meetings, not October 7th, but something in the future before your term is up. 38:49.710 --> 38:58.560 Temple McKinnon: I will communicate to this group, you know, as you indicate what our future actions are on your report your recommendation. So I'll continue to communicate and 38:59.610 --> 39:09.780 Temple McKinnon: I guess Kelley, I'll be in touch with you about, I'll keep the whole group apprised as to the timeline of the state water plan adoption as far as what that means for the existence of this Council. 39:10.260 --> 39:10.770 So, um 39:12.270 --> 39:13.590 Temple McKinnon: I'll be in touch it sounds like. 39:14.370 --> 39:14.520 Kelley Holcomb: Yeah I 39:15.540 --> 39:30.600 Kelley Holcomb: can't envision that we would need to meet anytime between now and potentially spring of next year when the Leg may or may not be dealing with this particular topic, depending on how they decide to move forward with their business. 39:31.440 --> 39:34.980 Melanie Barnes: So that said, Kelley does this group get involved at all 39:36.180 --> 39:41.430 Melanie Barnes: trying to give opinions or write or chime in on legislation? 39:43.560 --> 39:45.090 Kelley Holcomb: Um, I 39:45.210 --> 39:46.350 Melanie Barnes: Mark is saying no. 39:46.740 --> 39:50.880 Kelley Holcomb: I don't think that we do collectively, I think we all have that right individually 39:51.390 --> 39:53.190 Kelley Holcomb: depending on who we represent and their 39:53.220 --> 39:58.230 Kelley Holcomb: desires, but yeah committee as a whole, I don't think Council can or should. 40:00.150 --> 40:03.060 Melanie Barnes: I just want. I just wanted to be wanted to be clear. 40:03.660 --> 40:20.610 Suzanne Scott: Now I did tell Temple that if if for some reason during the legislative session either Chairman Larson or Chairman Perry want to have any kind of testimony on this report, you know, I'll be glad to come back along with Kelley to do any of that. 40:22.080 --> 40:25.020 Suzanne Scott: Because I'm you know I'm still going to be around, but 40:26.460 --> 40:36.870 Suzanne Scott: you know, that would be up to their prerogative I guess after, you know, not sure how many hearings are going to be taking place next year during the legislative session on things like this, but I do know that 40:38.160 --> 40:41.610 Suzanne Scott: they I know Chairman Larson, at least was interested in this report. 40:43.110 --> 40:52.050 Kelley Holcomb: By the way, I was quick to note with Suzanne that just because she's leaving the river authority doesn't necessarily mean she's vacating her position on the council or as chair, just for the record. 40:52.830 --> 40:58.200 Mark Evans: Thankyou for saying that Kelley. I was gonna say local government recollection is that 40:58.230 --> 41:03.900 Mark Evans: you continue to be chair until your successor is appointed, elected and qualified so 41:04.920 --> 41:08.970 Mark Evans: that's entirely up to your discretion, I guess whether or not you want to continue. 41:10.380 --> 41:11.820 Mark Evans: Once again that's just my opinion. 41:12.480 --> 41:22.590 Suzanne Scott: I appreciate that, I guess I'll need to make sure that Region L agrees with that because I was technically Region L's appointment so they'll have to decide if they still want me to serve in that role, but 41:23.040 --> 41:24.000 Kelley Holcomb: No pressure. Suzanne. 41:24.330 --> 41:27.780 Suzanne Scott: No pressure. Kelley Holcomb: I don't want to see you go at this point in the game. We're right here near the end. So 41:27.840 --> 41:35.490 Mark Evans: Well, and before we go as well, and I'm sure I speak for everyone. I want to want to thank you, Suzanne and Kelley for your leadership 41:36.030 --> 41:44.400 Mark Evans: throughout this this process that we've been through in the last however many months its been, four or five, I've lost certainly lost track of time, but it's been a 41:45.660 --> 41:52.230 Mark Evans: great effort on y'alls part to provide the kind of leadership that was needed to make this what we think is a successful report. 41:54.810 --> 41:56.880 Kelley Holcomb: Thank y'all for having the confidence in us to do it. 41:57.270 --> 41:58.950 Suzanne Scott: Absolutely. I appreciate that. 42:00.330 --> 42:12.300 Suzanne Scott: All right, so, so on this item of future convening meetings, then know October 7 meeting, but stay tuned to determine if other meetings that this Council will take place before the term is up.
