Legislative Regular Agenda
E. Public Wishing to Address the Board - Brian Ortego signed up to address the Board -
Ortega spoke 3 minutes on the following items. {E & G) - (E) Ortego would like better
communication with the GVPID as a whole. States the items discussed at today's meeting,
(sidewalks, tree trimming and the upcoming Open House) could have been placed on the
Agenda for the May meeting. (that was cancelled) In the future, suggest adding specific
items to the Agenda for discussion, (such as landscape or the idea of having a Project
Manager to check for contract compliance) to give the GVPID an opportunity to have input
and allow it to be more effective and informative for the Public. Would like to add the
Sycamore entrance with improvements back to the Capitol Improvement Project, if it's been
eliminated, replace Summers Green Park with new benches & trash cans (splitting the cost
between PID & Parks and Rec) and include alley ways in the Street Maintenance Program.
Garza verified the alley ways are not included in the Street Maintenance Program. Brief
Discussion that alley ways maintenance are the responsibility of the GVPID. Reed
confirmed the City will check to see when they were updated previously to prevent
spending money for treatment that is not currently needed.
F. Consideration and possible action to approve the Minutes of the regular meeting of April,
2019. Motion by Baker, seconded by McKinney to approve the minutes as presented.
Approved 7-0-0
G. Consideration and possible recommendation to City Council regarding the FY2020
Georgetown Village Public Improvement District (PID) Budget - Reed called attention to the
revise/updated budget (that was presented at the meeting today) and gave short overview
of proposed budget before opening the floor up for questions. Brief discussion and
clarification on the Budget. Public Speaker Ortega addressed the Board. Would like the
GVPID Board to consider continuing to be conservative in estimating the annual operational
expenses, suggest spending more on a higher level of contract maintenance to prevent the
overall capital investment from deteriorating over time and to consider improvements to
Summers Green Park. Board members had a discussion on the landscape Budget and ask
questions that were answered by Staff on the following: when the Contingency Reserve
would roll back into the Budget, the Budget is enough to update & maintain the
improvements and City Parks & Shell Road landscape will be maintained by the City at no
cost to the GVPID. Motion by Liddell, seconded by Baker to recommend to Council to
approve the Budget. Approved 7-0-0
Adjournment -Motion by McMichael, seconded by Newman to adjourn meeting at 7:17
