what we are looking to do can be done by City Staff, however we internally believe that as <br />this is new to everyone, given our current staff workload going in to the budget, having <br />just recently filled the DPCD position, and given the recent concern raised by many <br />regarding how we might amend the plan, it would be advisable that an outside party assist <br />with this process, at least this first time around. Mr. Path went on to say that it may be in <br />the best interest of the board to engage a consultant to facilitate a workshop of the TIRZ <br />Board to identify what they wish to amend. <br />Maureen Hammond stated that she thought the board already took action to issue an <br />RFQ/RFP, so she reached out to one of her counterparts and they are sending something. <br />She also asked about the procurement requirements, to which Stephanie Harris stated that <br />not all professional services fall under the procurement requirement, and that planning <br />services are exempt under Chapter 252 of the Local Government Code. Ms. Hammond <br />went on to say that she didn't understand why they needed a scope of work now, because <br />she thought they were moving forward and suggested the idea of a sub -committee to help <br />with the search and volunteered to serve on the sub -committee. <br />After further discussion, Chairman Head appointed Maureen Hammond and himself to <br />serve on the sub -committee for the TIRZ board. <br />Chairman Head asked for Ms. Hammond to send the names of her contacts to Mr. Path, to <br />which she agreed. <br />6. Request future agenda items. <br />There were no future items requested. <br />7. Adjournment. <br />There being no further business, Chairman Head adjourned the meeting at 3:17 P.M. <br />
