If there are any super neighborhoods present that we did not call out, please take a minute.

Let me know.

All right.

Okay.

Madam Chair, I'm going to turn it back over to you.

Thank you so very much.

Amy, does that look does that mean we have a quorum?

Very much so.

Yes.

Perfect.

It sounded like it to me, but I wanted to be sure.

All right, guys.

And following along in our agenda back by popular demand, we have a heavy trash update.

Is Director Seals on the line already?

If not, we'll come back to that one.

Director Sims.

I don't see where he's on the line, but I'll ask.

Perfect.

Okay.

Well, if he comes on while we're going through the agenda, whenever he comes on, we'll allow him the opportunity to take the floor.

Voters update.

Melanie, do you have a voter's update for us this week or this month?

If not, I know Cheryl has something that she'd like to share.

It's Melanie there.

I did hear us a present.

Well, basically, we want to remind everybody that if you're in district C, there is a runoff coming up.

We do have general elections are coming up in November.

We have discussed the possibility of having a voter forum for some of the positions up in the November election.

And Letisha will probably be addressing that in new business, right?

And kind of get a feel for whether people would be interested in that.

But we want to make sure that everybody is well aware of the fact that there was really low turnout so far in district C.

So the people in District C, you know, don't complain if you haven't voted.

And get out there and stay aware.

And we will have some more detailed information on the start of when early election voting starts for the November elections.

And we need people to get out and vote.

This is important for our city that we show up and vote.

Absolutely.

Thank you so very much, madam coach.

Nope.

Is it just me?

Can anyone else hear him?

No.

Nope.

Nope.

And I did not even mute him this time.

Nope.

Okay.

May I suggest that he type it into the chat?

Okay, is this work?

Oh, that's working.

That's working.

Yes, sir.

So this isn't working.

Yes, it's working.

We can hear you.

That's the problem versus teams versus Zoom.

They'd use one or two big different microphones.

I just want to remind everybody that before November, we have runoffs at the end of May also that come from the primary.

So it's important to get off, get out to vote for those as well.

Uh both, yeah, in both parties.

And in addition, I believe there's an uh elections at the beginning of May.

Can somebody correct me on that for some of the ISDs and bond issues for them?

But I don't call me to that fact.

Thank you.

Perfect.

Thank you.

Okay.

So if and just to be sure that everyone heard Cheryl, um, Cheryl stated that there we are discussing having a form in September.

Um, so of course, the details will follow.

Um, Ms.

Dale.

Dale.

Yes, there's a special election for Senate District Four that starts.

Early voting starts, I believe, tomorrow.

Um, the election is beginning of May.

Um, and then we have the uh 18th congressional district.

Um, as Greg was talking about, that's that's uh Memorial Day weekend, but the early voting starts mid-May.

And um if you look at the early voting turnout for the uh election in January for 18, and you look at district C, we gotta get it together, y'all.

I mean, it it's it's it's the you know, we're the fourth largest city in the nation.

These numbers are appalling um to show out to that we're showing up.

So we gotta get our communities energized.

I don't care how you vote, but you gotta vote.

You need to vote.

That's right.

Everybody and vote.

And I believe that's a problem that many of our many of us face as leaders, and maybe that's something that you know we can spend a little bit of time discussing how or what do we do?

I know in Acres Homes, some of the churches got together and they did a souls to the polls.

I hadn't heard that term but twice in my life.

So um, I thought that was pretty interesting, but you know, at this point, whatever it takes, um, and and we don't get to talk about it enough and how important it actually is.

So maybe that's something that we can save room on the agenda if there if time permits, save a little bit of room on the agenda, maybe even today to just kind of throw out what do we think would help get people out to vote?

Um, so we will skip it now and continue to move forward and then hopefully have a little bit of time to kind of just touch bases on that today during the meeting.

All right, and moving right along.

Do we have director Sims?

Has he come in yet?

Okay.

Committee.

I haven't heard back from him, but I'll let you know.

Okay, perfect.

Thank you.

Um, committee reports.

I did not see any committee reports in the drive, but that does not mean that the committees don't have anything to report.

Do any of our committee chairs have anything to report from uh this past month?

Oh Latasha, I mean, let's me.

Uh this is Vicky Martin.

I'm gonna what meeting are you in talking about Latasha?

Yes, ma'am.

That's that's a battle meeting.

I'm sorry.

But uh yes, I'll get with you off so I can uh get back on that.

Thank you.

Okay, no problem.

Anyone else?

All right, Amy, let's go ahead and get into the approval of the minutes.

Well, we had updated uh and circulated two sets of minutes uh from prior meetings.

One was the March meeting uh that happened last month.

That we um can take a motion for approval of that on it was uploaded to the drive in advance of the meeting, and then we also have the February meeting minutes that also need approval.

I make a motion that we uh approve the minutes in February and March.

Do we have a second?

I've got my hand raised.

Uh all those in favor.

Hold on, just a minute.

I've got my hand raised, please.

Uh well, I thought it was still left from the last one.

Yes, sir.

No, no.

I don't have any problems with the uh with last month's minutes, but why are we going and approving the ones from February?

Um we had an in-person meeting last month, and we did not approve minutes during that in-person meeting with the mayor.

No, that that's not my issue.

And Cheryl and Amy know the issue, and Letitia, I think you would know the issue too.

Okay.

It was it what you emailed about.

Yeah, and decided that the changes were not material and we didn't need to make them.

Well, hold on.

So but Cheryl, you could go ahead.

I will I can discuss it with Greg offline.

We don't need to take up time at this meeting, and let's just go leave them.

I will talk about it with Greg offline and not take time up at this meeting.

I appreciate that.

So we want to just vote on the March and not the February, Cheryl.

Is that what you're saying?

Yes, yes.

I and Greg, like you and I will talk offline about a month.

You've talked about that for a month, Cheryl.

All right.

So that's what I wanted.

The March.

I make a motion that we approve the March minutes.

I second it.

That was Keith second it.

Second.

With the second.

All those in favor.

Aye.

Any opposed.

All right.

They have been properly moved in second.

The March meetings are ready.

The February meetings.

We will bring them back next month.

Um during our May meeting.

Man, this year is going by so fast.

I'm kind of stuttering by the month that I'm announcing.

It seems like the year just started.

My goodness.

Yep.

All right, ladies and gentlemen.

So we have Greg, your hand is still up.

Is that on purpose or by virtue of just not putting it down?

All right.

So we have old business.

So I want to thank everyone that took time out of your busy schedule to join us in person for our March meeting.

I I also want to send a special thank you to Cheryl for securing the space for us tomorrow for bringing us some nuggets.

Um and not speaking nuggets, actual chicken nuggets for those of you that were not present.

Um it was a phenomenal turnout.

You know, honestly, the room was filled with super neighborhood leaders, and it was just really a great meeting.

So I want to thank everyone that contributed to that.

Everyone just it was just phenomenal.

So, yep, that's right, Tamara.

Everybody um give yourselves a hand clap.

Um, the next in-person meeting will be in May.

So that kind of falls into our new business.

And what that looks like is we were originally going to host that meeting at the Houston City College.

That has now changed, and it's going to well, we received a request to make an adjustment to our location.

And that request is to host it at City Hall, which is 901 Bag B on the ground floor in the legacy room.

And that request was made by the mayor asking if we could come um during that particular time.

And he meets with the super neighborhood alliance.

The executive team has confirmed that we will move the meeting and have it at City Hall.

So we hope to see the same turnout as we saw in March.

That meeting is set for May 11th at 6 30.

And we'll get the details out to you just as we typically do when we send out the minutes or in the the um reminders for the meeting, but please make note that our next meeting will be in person, 901 Bag B, the ground floor inside the legacy room.

Does anyone have any thoughts or questions?

Tomorrow I see you blue.

Huh?

I saw your screen go blue.

I thought you had a question.

I don't know why this screen going blue.

I need touching nothing.

No, I'm like, I'm like Cheryl and the other guy.

My computer hate me.

Oh, I see Sally's here.

Well, hello there, Sally.

Hi, everybody.

I just want to say May 11th's gonna be great timing because the budget will have been released the week before.

Uh my budget survey is gonna come out this week.

I'll make sure everybody has it.

So you can guys can fill out your budget survey and budget workshops will be getting underway, and that is a great time to have an in-person meeting and and we want to hear about it.

There's gonna be a lot of a lot of talk about this budget.

So uh we want to hear from you guys tomorrow.

Do you have a question on that?

I do.

Uh I have a question because I saw an article today saying that you know, if we don't walk back the ice policy, they're gonna pull a lot of grants.

What kind of money we talking about, Sally?

Um, I do not have that amount.

I'm reading the same report you're reading, and yeah, we are definitely that gives us all pause.

And um I I look forward to talking to the mayor about that and what so far.

We just heard 11 million.

11 meters the number 110 million.

Yeah, I didn't hear.

Yes, we damn sure can't afford to lose 110 million with Holland the other week.

We, you know, I'm an accountant by trade, so this map ain't adding up.

I'm not lying.

I mean, serious, you know, I don't know if you all drive around or if you're paying attention, but the World Cup will be here June the 14th.

Yes, and from what I'm looking at, we don't look ready.

Now I'm hoping we get ready, but we damn sure can't afford to lose 110 million before we get ready.

Oh, I agree.

My concern is that is exactly what the governor just said that these were public safety dollars and the amount of 110 million dollars.

Yeah, we we can't no, we can't lose that.

I saw what spring break looked like firsthand in person when you don't have enough security.

700,000 people coming in town for a game.

We can't lose nothing.

Believe me, we hear you and we hear the governor, and we um I expect something's gonna happen.

Uh I'm this is all just breaking, so I can't tell you exactly what, but yeah, I mean, we we're in a crunch, and this is this this is the situation we're in, and we're gonna have to deal with it.

And so you know, Web Myers worked with all the everybody at the ledge, and he's you know, he's on it, and and I'm gonna uh you know, I'm sure we'll be we'll be doing something, but I I don't know what as well.

We appreciate you, Sally.

There's Pastor Deb, did you have something you wanted to add to this?

You had your hand up, Pastor Deb.

Yes, thank you.

And I'm sorry it was related to the meeting and not to the councilwoman if she wants to continue the questioning.

I can no, no, no.

I'm fine.

I'm fine.

I just wanted to weigh in, please.

That we want to hear about you on the budget and May 11th.

Good job.

That's all I wanted to say.

Perfect.

Thank you, sir.

I know my my question was just this.

Um, the in-person meetings, so they're very exciting.

Um, super neighborhood 45, as y'all know, is new, although I've been around a few years getting it together with several people.

Um, is there a formal procedure for us to be recognized by the city?

Um, we've asked Councilman uh Castillo, and uh he says he doesn't know of one.

Uh so um we've been at this a long time.

So how should I go to the website and look for a workbook or does anyone have a shortcut just to tell me it'd be nice to do this in May?

Uh Pastor Deb, this is Rhonda.

Um I did speak to um Ty and the council members um office, and I know that they are working on something.

I'll get an update for you tomorrow.

Thank you so much, Rhonda.

God bless you.

Thank you.

Mark, your hands up.

No, it's Stacey.

Oh, it's I'm sorry, I'm in Mark's account.

Uh I was just gonna go back to uh uh the budget uh council member Alcorn.

Uh I suspect how this is gonna go is that uh the mayor's gonna end up honoring SB4 and HPD will continue to um uh conduct operations as they always have.

Um my concern about this is now that we have you know this ordinance is that um you know, with the state requiring us to follow SB4 is that we're gonna have somebody or entities um sue the city and then it's gonna get tied up in court and ultimately it's the taxpayers that are gonna be left on the hook while you all are all gone.

By the time this hits, it's it's gonna be our problem and not y'all's.

And so to me, this was not vetted.

Um, and I I just I I think it was just um, you know, there's there's so much more that could have been done.

It would there was no need to rush this.

Um, so anyway, I hope that with items like this that go on the agenda that the SNA will at a minimum be uh contacted and at least given the opportunity to um hear what is being pushed on us as residents uh and constituents, people who live, work, and play in the city of Houston.

And I would go as far as to say that the super neighborhoods as a whole, all 88 super neighborhoods, are you know, probably a good pulse um on what the city of Houston wants.

And uh we are regularly uh undermined and not considered.

So I do appreciate that the mayor has invited us to the legacy room for for the month of May, and I hope that going forward, because to my knowledge, there hasn't been any mayor in the past that has actually invited us down there.

We have always had to beg and plead.

Am I right tomorrow?

Correct.

Okay, so to me, this is a good sign.

Um, but I think also in May that we need to come, you know, with with kind of our views on this.

Um because as tomorrow said, FIFA's coming, and it's you know, we're the ones that are left with it living off of Washington Avenue.

I know these people, you know, the people that come into town.

Guess where they're gonna go party right here.

They're gonna go party over by tomorrow.

We're the ones that are left with the decisions that you all make at City Council.

So please take that back to everybody involved in this and who voted yes for it to add a minimum going forward that they the council at least consult with and give the opportunity to the SNA to distribute it to their super neighborhoods and have discussions and come back with possibly a position because we of all people who live here, we probably work and play in this town too.

So we have a pretty good pulse on what the city of Houston wants.

So I think that um it's it's probably a good starting place for any new citywide ordinance like this that has an implication, particularly on our public safety.

So I'm gonna leave it at that, but um, you know, more time.

I suspect and thank you, Stacy.

But I suspect that the the taxpayers are the ones that are going to be left holding this bug.

Thank you, Stacey.

Um now we have Keith who has his hand up.

I want to say thank you, first of all, to HCC for being so gracious to give us the spot for May.

I understand the mayor wants to speak to us and he reached out in the late hour.

And um that's fine.

He's a mayor.

But the fact is, I just want to say thank you to HCC because they were gonna allow us to be there uh there at Homestead and Little York Road in Northeast Houston.

And so I just wanted to put it on the record to say thank you to them for being so gracious to say come bring it to us.

Agreed.

Thank you.

I agree with that, Keith.

Yeah, um, and I would love for us to to visit that location, you know, here soon as well.

Um, but yeah, I do I do agree that um, you know, when the mayor called, especially during this time, like Sally said that's exactly the reason that we were called is because it is budget time.

So um Sherry.

Sorry.

Well, I just want to, as a community member, um, and long-standing community member and um advocate in this community, uh, especially Southwest.

I think it is so important that we are heard.

Um, I think that some of these council members and I and I appreciate their service so much.

I know everyone um are listening to certain uh constituents, um, and they are abiding by what those constituents are telling them.

And I really believe they're getting bad information.

I really do.

In my heart of hearts, I believe that they are getting bad information and they're making a decision um in regards to bad decisions, and I think launched all of this going on, and we kind of said, okay, it'll be okay, it'll get taken care of.

It does important things, but I am concerned.

I'm concerned I'm seeing some of these things moving along.

Um, that we are not allowing our voices to be heard as we should.

So I'm I'm grateful for May and Sally.

I'm very grateful for you to be here.

Um, because um we we just need the facts.

I think if people have the facts and the real information, um, they would understand what's going on, and um, there would be no need for stuff that is going to cost this city millions of dollars.

Um, I just think that we just it's gotta be careful about these knee-jerk reactions um because um they they actually can have long-standing effects.

Um I just that's all I wanted to say as a community and a board member, um, as a board member's management district, um, to be sure um people understand that um, you know, uh I'm I'm speaking as a community member right now.

Yep.

Thank you.

Thanks.

Thanks, Sherry.

Yeah, thank you.

Thank you for that, Sherry.

You you know your hands still look okay.

Thank you so very much.

Thank you for that.

Now I'm gonna call one more time to see if Director Sims is here.

I think that um I think the last meeting, heavy trash was a hot topic, but I think now with the budget and the potential loss, that just kind of that became another hot topic.

So um we'll keep moving through the agenda again.

If he comes on, um Rhonda, just alert me and um we will go ahead and give him the floor.

Um, everyone knows we had received notification about heavy trash, and then we had um it was being put on hold.

Um, so we were just yes, Carol says heavy trash is still a hot topic.

I I agree because right now we don't know exactly what is going on and and and what's going to be done and which way we're going.

So, yes, um, I do totally agree with it.

So let's go ahead and move into new business.

I made the announcement about the location, and while we will be in the legacy room, is there any other or additional new business?

Yes, tomorrow.

Okay, so you all know how um vehemently I fought against Harris Health taking uh Herman Park.

So the condemnation was approved by the county, but it is not over.

And I need you all to understand it's not over because they got to come up with a price, and the city has to accept it.

Um I've been aided, I've got four different people at the state trying to get us the public information dockets documents that we asked for for six months, and they have done everything they could to block it because I don't believe this condemnation was done right, but I am reliant on the mayor and city council.

And Sally was there, I think you were there when I came and spoke.

The council members didn't know anything about it to the depth, and that's why I appreciate us having this meeting in person because I was thrown up really uh I couldn't believe they didn't know about it.

Uh, but if they would talk to us and let us hear what's going on, Herman Park is not a pocket park.

Herman Park is the park.

That is our cities, that is our Central Park, and the callous indifference that I felt was being done by just cutting it up.

Uh, because once you had a precedence, everybody else is gonna try to come and do the same thing was very disturbing to me.

And so I I want you all to know I I'm going to still need y'all help because I don't stop fighting to the fight over.

That's just the way I fight.

So this is not over by any stretch of the imagination, because the proving that they were eligible for condemnation, I don't think it wasn't done.

I know it wasn't done.

So I I am going to be leaning on you all.

We met again last week, but I'm gonna need some help because everybody on this right now has gone to Herman Park, took a child of Herman Park, visited Herman Park, been in Hermit Park.

So I'm gonna need you all to help with this, but I am going to bring this up when we meet with the mayor because I was not happy at all at the response I gave.

When it's in the city's hands, all Harris Health can do is grant the condemnation.

The city, the one get the check.

Okay, they get the check.

The city and the family, they get the check.

Not not Harris County and not Herman Park Conservancy.

Now the city may break them off a little something, but the money goes to the city and the Winnersky family.

And I heard the Winersky family is a little concerned that the city might try to cut them out.

So I need you all to stay with me in this race, you know.

Uh, I mean it.

I I know I will be coming to you all, and the fact that it is in where they're proposing to do it is in the hundred-year uh floodplain.

It's absolutely in the floodplain.

How the hell is that healthy to put the additional hundred hospitals in the floodplain?

That makes no sense.

But that's the conversation they're having.

Gotcha.

Thank you, Tamara.

Greg, your hands up.

Uh yeah, I just want to make an announcement.

Houston Fleet Week starts this week.

Oh, yes.

This is the first time Houston has ever had fleet week.

The East Coast and the West Coast have had it all the time, but we get to have it this time.

There are a lot of events to attend starting on Wednesday.

And I hope to look it up and do it.

I've got a group that I'm taking on a tour of one of the uh one of the ships for that, and that's available also for other people.

Uh my brother-in-law was hoping to come down here.

Um, but he's the commandant of the Marine Corps and on the joint chiefs of staff, but duty calls, so that's not happening given everything else that's going on in the world at this point.

But please, there's a lot of stuff that's going on.

Coast Guard, Navy, and Marines, a thousand of them will all be here.

So come out and support them and enjoy the time.

Thank you.

Awesome.

Thank you.

Thank you, Grace.

Thank you.

Greg know the website.

Can you put it in the chat?

For people let me see if I can do that.

Oh, someone put it in there already.

Oh, did they?

Yeah, DD just did.

Thank you.

Okay, great.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Kevin.

Hi, earlier.

Cheryl was talking about the district C runoff.

Uh early voting starts in two weeks.

So while anybody is free to try to put on their own form, I don't know that you'd be able to do it in two weeks.

I've done these before, and it's a lot of work.

But good news is the near town Montrose Super Neighborhood.

Uh, neither Jack nor the new president is here tonight.

Um has already put one together.

It's April 29th.

It's gonna be hosted by the Ismaili Center.

I put the link to the Facebook page in the chat.

So the district C super neighborhoods.

I would encourage you to share that um with your um groups.

Um so again, it's April 29th, 6:30.

Um at the Ismaili Center, which is the corner of Montrose Boulevard and Allen Parkway.

If you've never been, it's a fantastic opportunity to see this amazing new building and um which is part of the community.

That's it.

Thank you.

Perfect.

Thank you, Kevin.

Thank you so much.

Okay, um, Beverly.

Yes, I'm with Super Neighborhood 68.

We had um a supervisor from solid waste and ten our March meeting with reference to heavy trash pickup.

We were told everything had been dispensed, and and we were getting back on the original schedule.

Just wanted to share that.

Thank you.

Thank you.

And I'm not laughing at you, I'm just laughing at the um very go-round that we're on.

So no, no problems.

Okay, Stacey.

I just wanted to ask, is anybody else having a problem with gas stations popping up in your neighborhood or right next to homes?

Yes, been on the acres homes, and I literally have a gas station in one block.

It's like one in every corner.

If you're in a stop sign, you can it there's four.

So for anybody who's having an issue, um, Jelanda Jones, representative Jelanda Jones is coming to my super neighborhood meeting in uh May to kind of talk about you know her how she's planning to address them.

I have heard rumors, and maybe council member Alcorn can talk about this if she's still on.

Um there was there's um actually there's things happening on that.

Um, right now it kind of lies with the health department.

They're looking at everything they can do environmental wise.

Um, I've been working with constituents in the sixth ward about wine kind of on silver, and um there we want, believe me, we want to do something.

We do not want them on every corner, and I think there really are some environmental concerns to and that's it's my understanding last time I asked that right now.

It's being vetted at the at the health department, see what we can do health-wise.

Um to to put some, you know, with a in a city with no zoning, you guys know how hard it is.

Um property property rights are a big deal in this in the state of Texas, and it's hard to regulate something if it if the rules weren't in place when somebody purchased the property, uh, you can't like change the rules.

But if there's some kind of health life safety issues involved, there are just some things we can do, kind of like we don't let certain things, bars and things, and you know, a thousand people from a school and stuff like that.

So we're we're that's all kind of in the works, and I'm really hoping we can come up with something that that get that has some teeth that we can limit these in neighborhoods.

Do you do you think it will get y'all to move as quickly as y'all do with this other uh thing that came out of nowhere with the HPD, can't do this and can't do that.

I'm hoping y'all take that expedited uh uh nature and putting the ordinance together to stop this because it is a health concern.

The one that we that we got pulled back from planning commission last Thursday in our neighborhood uh was uh about to be approved, and it is literally the back door is next to a million dollar house.

Yeah, I'm trying to find the last email I've gotten on this.

So I don't understand why.

I mean, as quick as all the whole fire marshals, yeah, the fire marshals involved, um because there's underground fuel infrastructure and yeah, there's a there's I hear you.

There's a lot of stuff going on if that is not falling on deaf ears, and we are you know, I know the departments are working on on putting something together.

Yeah.

Is that gonna I'll say I don't know if maybe even reaching out to some of the communities that have his like for us historically that has been our case.

Um, you know, we pulled out of a street and there are two gas stations and one in versus the other in.

And so if we look at some of those neighborhoods that have historically had a large number of gas stations, there are some neighborhoods where they're just now popping up, but for Acres Holmes, that's always been the case.

And it's I mean it's concerning our tissue.

Let's think what they're doing now is doing now is I'm getting an echo.

What's happening now is these are going right next to people's front doors.

Well same for us same so yeah I think it's an issue throughout the city throughout as I've driven around it's throughout the city throughout the city but you'd be surprised you're all most of them that Letitia experience and we experience it and we it's one is this one company this is one company like everybody's echoing now well we have two on northway side two pit stops right across from each other but the ironic thing is that there's a residence behind it and it's backyard neighbor and they have liquor stores and we were always told that you couldn't be within 300 feet of a resident or a church.

So one of them the backyard neighbor's a church and the other one the backyard neighbor is a residence and so how are they getting around we have a guys we uh Mindy has his and if I'm saying your name wrong please forgive me and and tell me the correct pronunciation but he has his hand up hi everyone uh Metty Rays I'm the new acting president from Neartown Association.

We can barely hear you let me try again microphone closer to me can you guys hear me now absolutely hi I I'm Metty Rays I I'm the new acting president for the Neartown Association.

Nice to see some familiar faces here.

Kevin I I do appreciate the shout out for the district C runoff forum the only thing that I'll add is there's a limited number of tickets um you can get those tickets at the Smiley Center uh their website but we'd love to see all of you out there thank you so very much thank you Sherry hey is there any way Sally that someone could post the the laws about how close a liquor store can be to a community or what or even smoke shops.

Yeah it's like I'm not sure about smoke shops but let me let me look yeah we can get that to you like sexually oriented businesses liquor stores all those kind of distance things uh I can we can compile that and I'll get them I'll get them um to the head so that can it can all get out to everybody thank you I'm constantly being asked that from the management district side and I and I get them confused too it's like a thousand feet in some instances 300 feet in some instances so let me run that down for you and I'll make sure you guys get it.

Thank you I'm making a note now council member it's my understanding that you're not going to be able to do anything about the four that are going in on Washington Avenue and just call it in the next six months.

So when so I guess going back to tomorrow's question are you thinking that something's gonna go to committee this year I'm I'm looking through emails that I've gotten um and working on the sixth board one and it's in legal right now so let me follow up tomorrow with legal and see like you know some things go into legal to die some things go to legal to get you know go on forever but I mean I will make sure and um reiterate to them that I was on SNA tonight and you guys are anxious for the something to come before us so uh I hear you'll follow up I'm I'm making a list of things to follow up with you guys about and I'll just add that the timeline to it don't y'all think it is when we meet in May we cannot get off of this bandwagon I'm not lying on this gas station thing Letitia when we meet in on May we need to bring this up because they've been working on this ordinance six the uh the six war people came to our our our meetings we were holding to tell us the fight they were in so now this is showing this is everywhere so we cannot get off of this right because if they can sit up there and cut that policy with HPD and ice that quick they could damn sure do something get something on the books quicker.

Yes right we need to Kathleen O'Reilly's had her hand up for a while so thanks you thank you thank you Sally for your advocacy on this work so a couple of points let's make sure that we look into um the um proximity of the non the for profit schools and because that there are different regulations for that and also I want to give a big shout out to Riverside Terrace and Councilmember Evan Shabazz for getting the gas station on Almeday I mean it it really people have to speak up so but Sally thank you very very much for taking this on as always yeah no happy to get you know we are we hate them too I mean we don't want y'all to be inundated with these gas stations I mean we're we're trying you know we gotta just figure out what we can do and do it.

I mean, we're we're trying, you know, we gotta just figure out what we can do and do it.

Thank you.

Oh, awesome.

And there's one more thing that I wanted to add.

Um, the defender reached out to me about the noise ordinance, and I believe that most of our communities suffer with that issue as well.

Um and um we have it and it's going on.

Some of them have now set up sheet metal fencing, believe it or not.

Oh, and the noise is just absolutely crazy.

So to add to our agenda for discussion, I think those are two things that we need to put on there.

Um article, Letitia, because I said all the noise ordinance did, and I know Stacy agreed with me, is make what's illegal profitable for the city, because if you pay for the permit, you can still do what used to be illegal, legally not as long as you pay for your sound permit.

Uh it didn't make it do what I wanted it to do.

Yeah, and and honestly, they're not even abiding by that either.

So they're not getting a permit.

It's about enforcement.

And then and and that's the other thing.

It's not what are they gonna do?

The cops, they come out and they just talk to them, and we just pray that the person is scared enough to not do it again.

And if they're not, they just continue to do it.

It just does it.

Should be ARA enforcing it, not HPD.

Uh only make one.

But they keep doing warnings, and they it should be tickets, not warnings.

I I a hundred percent agree with you.

Um, council member.

This is where council member Salinas can be extremely helpful because with the challenge um with this the lawsuit that was brought uh against the sound ordinance that the city just basically agreed to.

So there's precedent now.

Um, so basically what's on the books is not enforceable.

Um and so that's why you're getting the kind of response or lack of response that you are.

But this is where council member Salinas can use her expertise as a lawyer to help us get something in place, legal language that is enforceable and will stand up in court.

Absolutely Stacy say that again about it's not enforceable no more.

What it's there is a lawsuit, there was a lawsuit that the city um that that came against the city based on the new revisions.

So the city and uh the group uh agreed that I I can't remember what the agreement is, but it's anyway.

So so basically it's not enforceable.

Oh good.

Well, I mean, I I that I mean I'm not I I don't think that that's the that we're not in that it's completely not enforceable based on that.

I mean, I'll dig into the details of it.

I know we were sued on it, I don't know what we've agreed to either.

Nobody's informed me of what we'd agree what we've agreed.

The city agreed to, but I sure as hell hope it's not that we're just like gonna throw out all the revisions that we worked so hard to get.

Uh yeah council member, I'll send you the document.

So Letitia to your point.

Sorry, I to your point.

I will actually ask my husband to attend the main meeting because he works with the council member with with council member Alcorn on this issue, and you know, he's got all of the history.

Um, but but yes, I I a hundred percent agree with you.

And by the way, council member, I got a call at uh one o'clock this morning because 5306 was playing had a band from 10 o'clock to one, and they shut it down whenever HPD came.

So that should not be happening.

Yeah, yeah.

Okay, I'm adding this to my list.

I'm gonna get with legal about it.

I'm sorry, I'm I'm not trying to inundate you.

No, I'm glad to have it.

That's why I'm here.

As the quality of life committee chair, I just feel that gas stations and you know, absolutely, all these items uh are important.

Absolutely.

Thank you so much.

Thank you for all of it.

All right, Direct the Seams.

Hey, Letitia, thank you.

And I want to thank y'all so much for agreeing to the in-person May meeting.

Um such short notice.

So much appreciated.

Rhonda will set up um the logistics for the legacy room and getting with Mo's um regarding the um the schedule in the setup for that.

We should have um food snacks there for you guys.

Um so I just appreciate it because I know that's a change to what you had planned already, but um I think it'll be fruitful, and I think you'll that face-to-face will um be helpful to many of the neighborhood issues that you all are facing and want to get in front of the administration.

Um and the primary is the is the super, I mean is the budget.

My apologies, uh part of that budget is your fund.

Um Rhonda and I have been advocating, you know, to keep as most of that most of that fund as possible.

Um, I think the administration is amenable to it, and so um hopefully um we'll have um some news for you at that May meeting.

Um the reason I was late because I was working on my budget.

I finally got um some more information for us to proceed on furthering our budget.

So I was working on that, but um, I think the main meeting and the attention that you'll be getting, and it shows that um you are valued part of the constituency and the residents of the city of Houston that um there wants to be a face-to-face with you all.

And I think that you all do good work and continue to represent your communities, and I appreciate it.

So at that point, once we get the budget update and know how much that fund is, we'll have an update on how we'll proceed with our projects on super neighborhood fund and FY27.

Um, and um, so I'll talk to Rhonda and her team to um polish any changes we need to make to that or any um additions we need to make to it.

So um I look forward to it.

Um, and if it's anything you need, Letitia or any um of the board members before that date, just let me know.

Perfect.

Thank you.

Thank you.

And I guess the the biggest question, we kind of got uh word that there was an update as far as heavy trash that we've kind of reverted back to the previous schedule until there is a change.

Yeah, we we just had a form in district J and they reverted back to the schedule for now.

It's the work from Solid Waste as of now.

Um all the process all the policies that were in place before is the current for for heavy trash and the policy reported in that meeting.

Um, what you put out and the schedule um as of now that is the same.

So nothing changed as of March.

I think we talked about it in the March meeting.

Yes.

Um it might have been February.

Yeah, we briefly touched on it in uh March.

We decided to kind of hold it off until this meeting.

Um Carol has a question, I believe, for you.

Carol, are you there?

Yes, I'm here.

I'm sorry, I was talking to myself.

Um no problem.

I just want to verify that this heavy trash schedule has not changed.

Uh, in other words, what's on the website?

What's always been on the website, the heavy trash schedule is gonna stay that correct?

As far as the uh the tree pickup and the junk pickup.

That's what the representative reported at the last meeting last Wednesday.

Yes.

Okay, thank you.

Thank you, Willie, and then Cheryl.

Hey Director Sims, how you doing, sir?

Willie Rainworth Supernaval 41, all pretty good.

Hey, look, uh what I wanted to know, sir, is that uh you mentioned that you're working on your budget.

Uh is your budget the same as it was, or did they cut the budget anymore?

Because the issue to me seems to be, I mean, it always comes down to money.

And uh as far as the heavy trash and things, I know that um one of the ADAs I did speak to that were in the heavy trash uh area, he said that um you know it was about funding and and and money because that's what why they were trying to change it in the first place.

And I don't see how you get around that when um it appears that you know the city is short of some money, so I don't know how they're gonna solve that problem now.

They may be able to do it in a different way because I did write the mayor a letter and uh I suggest to him that if he needs to save the money and everything, what what might work is that instead of this calling in stuff, if you just take Houston and split it up into four sections, north, south, east, west, and uh each one you do one a month, you do the north side one month, you do the another one another month, another one another month.

In other words, you get trash pick up every other month.

However, doing the time that you're not the thing is you need to have enforcement, whereas if the person that trash is not being picked up, that that those other three sections, then you need to have fingers and stuff in that way.

Because when you were going to do it on a call-in basis, uh, from what I understood, there wasn't even going to be a finding process or anything else with that.

So it didn't seem like the whole thing was well thought out to begin with.

And now you're going back to the regular and they still behind.

So, you know, I don't see how we get out of this unless somebody makes some real drastic changes and that they do it in a structured uh manner.

It makes some sense.

And I don't see uh how that's gonna happen.

Uh, you know, if if if somebody doesn't sit down and really think about this.

Because you're not gonna have any.

I can't speak for director Hassan's budget.

Um, but I can't say as far as enforcement, they only have six inspectors to code enforcement for solid waste at this time.

Um space.

Yep.

Yep.

66 miles places.

You know, I had code enforcement as well, and the square the square miles is the issue.

Um, you can compare us to other cities, but they don't have 627 square miles.

We're not inspecting people inspect property, and so it does limit and with gas and and and fleet and the the cost adds up pretty fast when you cover that much square square miles, I mean square mile, well, and then she share that's all I was saying to you that that an area, you know, that area.

We'll take it in all that's a good question for for the area in the yes, that's a and you you will probably have an answer in that meeting for that for that question.

Okay.

I had a question about how this is going to be communicated that we're going back to the old plan, because that's not what we were told when we called 311.

We were not picked up on schedule under the old schedule.

So, how is the community supposed to get this type of information?

Um, you look on next door, and at least in my area of town, you can get five different answers depending on who's called whom in the city to get an answer as to how solid waste is being handled.

So I I appreciate that you say that we're going back to the old, but that isn't happening in my part of town, and we're not getting the same answer when we call and ask about it.

I'm gonna get the answer direct from directly from Director Hassan, and I'll send that through you, Letitia.

Perfect.

Thank you.

Thanks.

Um speak Vicky and then Keith.

Yeah, thank you, Director Sams, for coming on and everyone.

Uh, my question is I I just heard her say we're going back to the old system, because our day is second Monday.

So by right, today would have been our pickup day for junk waste, but there were no trucks in the area.

So we observed in the East Aldean district, which is a management district, we understand that.

But uh what they're doing in that area is every month for the two consecutive months, they're putting a dumpster out at a business, and people are just riding through to drop off their tracks to eliminate the stagnation of people having uh trash, heavy trash at their homes.

Has the city thought of any alternate ways that they can have every every other month that you have a two dumpsters put in a you know area that could handle such so that people can just drive up and I'm just saying it's working in East Aldean.

Uh thank you.

I yield back.

Yeah, that they have the that has been in discussion.

I'm not sure where Director Hassan has landed on that, but that has been a discussion also to help prevent illegal dumping.

Perfect.

Thank you.

Keith.

Director Sam, thank you for being here today.

I um wanted to ask, you know, the SWM Solid Waste director stated there would be an education piece of getting information out to residents, which he never did.

Um, and when you say something to me, I hold you to it.

And so getting this information of them saying, well, we're gonna get the people the information, or even get it to us, you know, they have to make a true concerted effort to get the information out to us.

I did hear today about uh council member Cassic Tatum uh billboards along the highway.

I have a problem with that because people don't dump on the highways, they dump on the side on the streets.

And uh so I think the billboards and a lot of these underserved communities talking about cigarettes, cigarettes and hennes and liquor and all of this.

If some of those billboards can be used in the community to put this in people's face on the boulevards, I think that that would be it would go a longer way than putting it on a highway because you're not putting it at where illegal dumping is taking place, which is on the surface.

Yes, I just wanted to point out.

I'll take that back to them and even take it a step further.

Um there's also talk of educating even younger because the illegal dumping doesn't start as I've said over and over as adults.

It's it it's it's it's a mentality we have to change that it's not okay.

It's all uh like I said it's like Louis the Lightning Bug did for us in touching our lines.

Yes.

Um it starts with littering and and and good stewards of our community and going from there.

So um there's many layers of heavy trash as you you definitely know key.

Um there is definitely um that's a part of it is we have to educate and and people have to know it's not okay.

I've been to meetings that people say with a city pick up trash anyway, so if we dump it anyway, you should pick it up.

So I'm told many a time in the meeting.

Yeah, I'm told in the I've seen residents illegal dump in daylight hours, and they tell me to somebody that where they told me to put it here.

I said, Who are they?

The city did.

I said, No, they did not.

You know, so we get pushback from the ones who do do any legal dumping.

Yeah, right.

Chavez.

Thank you.

I just wanted to um address Mr.

Downey um with the the billboard campaign that um Mayor Pro Tem Cass Tatum uh spoke about on the news um this evening.

The um campaigns, I think you're mentioning maybe mentioning the um the one billboard that's off of 59.

And um those billboards were donated by um outfront media and also clear channel.

Um and the messages is to get to communicate just broadly.

We do have billboards in District K place where um dumping has happened.

But again, thank you for your comment.

Um, I'll take that back to her, but again, it's just to communicate to try to touch um more eyes to know to try and deter illegal dumping throughout the city.

And instead of district K also has signs on at frequently dumped spots.

Um District K, um, Mayor Pro Tim has signs at frequently dumped spots where her hot team has picked up a lot of illegal dumping.

I know in the past she's worked with um parts of Fort Bank County also to put some of those signs up in that area too.

So thanks, Didi, for putting that out.

Thank you so much.

Thank you.

And our last question we have is from Beverly.

Mr.

Sims, thank you for coming out.

And as I forced it earlier, uh Mr.

Hassan sent a representative out to our SN meeting back in March.

The plans that were to call in, and that didn't that was not thought out very well because it would not work for a city the size of Houston.

I suggest maybe putting something in the water bill to let everybody know that everything is back originally, and then moving forward with the dates as we used to have because I'm seeing more and more tree limbs and things building up, and some of them are turning brown, and that means it's been there for a while.

And thank you for again, as I said, for coming out.

Thank you guys.

Thank you so very much.

Um there's some communication in the chat.

Okay, I think that that's just informing.

No, I don't see any questions in the chat.

Thank you, um, Director Sims for for coming, guys.

Um monitoring that for you, Letitia.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you so much for filling in and giving us those updates.

And thank you definitely for the invitation for the in-person meeting on next month and um in the legacy room.

So we do look forward to that, and hopefully all parties will be present.

I did see the list of individuals that will be there just in case we have any questions in reference to those particular budgets.

So thank you again for being here with us today.

No problem.

Thank you.

And thank you, Letitia.

You're you're very well, who said that?

Beverly.

Oh, thank you, Beverly.

Thank you.

All right, guys.

So we are at the part of our agenda where there is new business.

Um we have addressed our meeting, our next meeting location.

Um else have any new business.

And do we have any other um representatives?

Yep, there we go, Sherry.

And if there are any other representatives, please go ahead and raise your hands because we may be able to adjourn a little bit early today.

So if that's the case, I know I see now I see some smiles.

All right, Sherry.

Well, I'm gonna go quick, but I I definitely have to like give some good news and pass on some information from the Harris County District Attorney's Office.

Um, that's the hat I'm wearing now.

Um, so I want to let you know that uh for the first quarter of 2026, as far as the D district attorney's office is concerned, um, there is a clear sense of work happening across our courts and the trends are both all steady and meaningful.

Totally total activity um for cases and trials that are going on right now are 149 trials, including the one that just most recently um happened with Darren Alamanderis, um, uh the deputy that was killed in the line of duty.

Um, and um he that he has him and his family um family actually saw justice.

Um so we're very happy about that.

Um, and um, but the kind of cases that we're reaching um juries uh tell an important story about where our teams and focuses happening uh very quickly, misdemeanors seem to be uh top with driving while intoxicated, shame, shame, um, and assault on family violence continue to make most of the trial work.

Um, I just want to let you know that um uh felony trial activity this quarter centered on some of the most serious offenses we have of the hundred and one felony cases in trial right now are sexual abuse of a child.

Um was the most common felony trial type, which uh feels especially timely as we move into April, which is um child abuse awareness month and sexual assault awareness month.

You may not think a lot about these awareness months um, you know, that you see happening with some of these um, you know, law enforcement will put out sexual abuse awareness month or child abuse awareness month.

It actually spurs um information about resources.

Um people who may not know that there are resources available um and you may not need them right now, or you may not be able to get to them right now because um the abuser in that is in this case may be standing right next to you, which is common.

Um, you can go later.

These resources are 24-7 and available.

Um, so I want to let you know that out of the 101 felony cases that were tried, they were mostly child abuse.

Um, that's uh cases require patience and skill.

Um, right behind it is homicide, sadly, um, including murder and capital murder, um, were the second most frequently tried felony offenses.

These cases represent some of the most complex and emotional demanding work in the office.

We also saw significant felony sentencing outcomes this quarter.

This is important, just pay attention to this, including 13 life sentences in prison.

Okay, and six prison sentences greater than 50 years, six sentences greater than 50 years, okay, and a hundred prison sentences.

And this is just in our first quarter of this year.

A hundred prison senses ranging from 21 years to 50 years in prison.

A reflection on the seriousness of the offenses being prosecuted and the dedication of our our everyone involved, including our law enforcement partners.

These are the people that are the worst of the worst, okay, and they're now off the street.

We we often hear about you know, people in the Harris County jail and their cases aren't being tried or they're getting bonded out.

This means that cases are being tried, and we're getting the worst of the worst off the street.

So as in all cases, I just want to let you guys know because this question has come up to me a lot in the last couple of weeks.

People are asking questions about trials that uh you may hear that um maybe um uh that they're not that they're pleading out or that the cases may be uh charges may be dismissed.

Let me tell you what's happening there that you may not be aware is that a lot of these cases have been sitting in the Harris County jail for years, years.

Witnesses are necessary for cases to be successful.

A lot of times these witnesses either pass away or we can't find them anymore because it's been so long, and I'm talking about five, 10 years.

So that is why these cases are very important and what Sean Tier is doing with prosecuting these cases immediately, okay, or as quickly as possible, okay.

He's preventing that long strain that's happening on these witnesses, um, which it really makes it to where these cases don't get to go to trial.

So we want to make sure this is this is why, and I'm glad that he's he's dedicated to making sure these trials actually happen very promptly, as promptly as humanly possible, um, and not dragging them out because these witnesses do tend to disappear or they tend to pass away.

Just life.

Um, if you don't have a witness for a trial, you really don't have a case.

Um you may have video, but if you don't have a person there to actually, you know, uh be your witness against the incident that happened, it's very difficult.

So I just want to let you know if you hear these cases in the media, they're dismissed.

Please ask questions.

Please, we're here.

Um, you know you can reach out to me anytime to ask me about any case that you may find about that.

If I'm able to um give that information, I'm certainly well.

Um, but I want you to have the facts.

Please don't listen to the media or anything else that may um spark your attention.

We want to give you the facts.

Um, so y'all know how to reach out to me.

That's that's all I have, unless anyone has any particular questions.

Okay, thank you so very much.

Thanks.

Didi.

Thank you.

Just wanted to um let everyone know that today our district K newsletter went out um hot off the press.

I just put the link in the chat pot.

Some uh key highlights.

Um, you know, we were talking about illegal dumping.

Our hot team did um work with a contractor.

Um last week, our director for constituent services, Eric Goodwine and the hot team worked and they uh collected over almost 50 50 tons of trash uh from some 21 plus hot spots that were identified as illegal dumping spots um in district K.

Um, also we want to thank everyone who came out and volunteered for the key Houston Beautiful um event on this past Saturday.

We had um the Westbury community um working and also some faith-based communities uh across District K working to clean up the community.

We want to thank everyone for your efforts in that.

Um Mayor Pro Tim is the chair of the Economic Development Committee.

The committee will meet on Wednesday, April 15th at 2 p.m.

And we look forward to a presentation from our director of the Office of Business opportunity to give um a presentation on uh a new initiative, and also we will hear from our director of the Houston Airport System, Dr.

I mean director of Stezniak, he'll give an update on on the airport systems, and then we'll also hear a presentation from Tourist 20.

So tune in.

Um, and that again, that's Wednesday the 15th at 2 p.m.

Um keep up with District K.

Again, our newsletter link is in the in the chat.

Um, but anyway, if you're available, come out.

We'll be at Hoba Taylor Park April 25th from 10 to 12 for the drug take back uh educational forum.

Thank you.

I yield back.

Perfect.

Thank you so very much.

Okay, guys, and I do have an announcement for Acres Homes.

Um Acres Homes is hosting its very first affordable housing conference, June 27th from 9 a.m.

to 5 p.m.

at the Acres Homes Multi-Service Center.

I have added the information into the chat.

The one of the reasons that I wanted to be sure I announce it here is we're going our very first panel is going to start with politics to policy.

So that is hopes to get people to understand how connected affordable housing is to policy and politics so we're gonna start with our politicians, our um state rep Charlene Ward Johnson has already agreed to be on that panel.

I have reached out to um our district B, Tarsha Jackson.

I'm going, I plan to reach out to Tiffany Thomas, who's the chair of housing with the city, um, and a few other individuals as well as I spoke the other day um to CD 18, Christian Minifee, and just have everyone on that panel so that our community understands everything that is directly connected and that impacts them day to day as it relates to politics.

So definitely we'll invite everyone on the call out.

If you know anyone that's looking to purchase a home or that just wants to understand more about affordable housing, they are welcome to come out.

Okay.

And for that, I don't see any more hands raised.

So guess what that means?

Yeah, I don't see anything in the chat either.

So oh, I'm sending something right quick.

Of course.

I was just about to say hurry.

Oh, Pastor Deb.

You have two seconds.

Yeah, look.

Um anybody here could just put in the chat or say quickly, we've got to know where to take oxygen tanks.

Someone that passed away, and I can't find any names on them.

They're very dangerous to have, and I'm taking two of them in here to the church, and I'd like to get rid of them so anybody could let me know.

Thank you.

Thank you, Pastor Deb.

All right, before someone else raised their hands, can I get a motion to adjourn?

So move.

I think I saw a lot of hands going up, but no one could get it out.

Do we have a mood off fast enough?

Pastor Deb said, I'm not even gonna let my hand down.

I'm second.

Any of all those in favor?

All right, all right.

Any opposed.

Nope.

All right.

Good night, everyone.

See you next month.

Thank you.

Bye bye.

Good job, girl.
