the agenda due to the fact that it is open ended and that is why it is discussion only, Mr.

Discuss the outcome of the November 7'1' vote on Proposition A.
Mr. Paris said lie would like the Board Members to give their thoughts on the election. How they see
the PEDC moving forward? How they see the community corning together?
® Mr. Manning stated he was pleased with the outcome of the vote. He sees that this is part
of the future for Paris and Lamar County. Mr. Manning expressed appreciation for the
voters and for the visionaries who want to see Paris progress in the future. He also talked
about the continuation of transparency in the PEDC. Mr. Manning stated that we are
headed in the right direction.
• Mr. Hernandez stated that he recognizes the importance of the PEDC in Paris. The PEDC
Board can help improve the lives of the citizens by bringing in higher paying jobs. This in
turn brings in other types of businesses. Mr. Hernandez told everyone that his personal
goal is 1,000 new high paying jobs and 5,000 more citizens in the next ten years.
• Mr. Banks appreciates what the voters did. He stated that the PEDC has gotten on. the
proper track, and is above board and transparent on everything we do. Also, the PEIDC
books and records are open to anyone who would like to view them.. As a Board Member
he feels appreciated for what we are doing and is proud to assist the people in Paris.
• Mr. Hamill agreed that it is great that the city spoke out for what they expect and want
from the PEDC. Now we need to put this distraction behind us, and move forward. There
is a lot of potential in Paris and a bright future for Paris.
• Mr. Paris stated that in the past, difficulties between the PEDC and the City Council have
been very contentious, The voters gave a very clear message that the community wants the
PEDC, City Council and other partners to work together to move Paris forward. We need
a broader vision of what we want for Paris: for development of manufacturing and
industry; for development of the service sector and retail jobs; for the development of
downtown; and for the overall quality of life in Paris. The hope is that there will be open
communication and resolutions between groups that will keep us moving, forward. The
voters have said very clearly that is what they want us to do.
Executive Director's Monthly Re ort..
Our office would like to move out of the reactive role to inore, of a prospecting role. We
will be presenting how the sales funnel works in economic development, how a lead is
generated, how do we get a site visit, and how do we mature that into a prospect. This will
have an impact on the PEDC Board and the City Council when everyone understands what
we are doing and what the money is being spent on. I was hired to help recruit and retain
jobs in Paris, which is part of the PEDC mission. This will get us back to the mission that
we were designed for.
We will present you with the results of the our community survey. It gives a broad picture
of the community's thoughts on the growth of Paris. We can partner with City Council,
Downtown development, Chamber of Commerce and non -profits to come up with a
community plan to grow Paris,

address the hospital board members and not the members of the Paris -Lamar County Health Board members,
Mr. Nathan "Jim" Bell IV, addressed the board about the swimming pool regulations that were passed by the PLCH'D board
members, Mr. Bell advised that hotel pools and apartment pools are both classified in Class C. Mr. Bell advised that hotels
have maintenance and/or personnel on staff 24 hours day and apartments, especially with less than 100 units, do not. He
thinks it is hard to meet the adopted guidelines,. Land line phone can be tied into the office phone and will only call 9-1-1. Daily
testing of water is too expensive and three times a week is plenty. Cost of staff, testing of water, and a few of the other
regulations are costing him what one apartment rents for a month. Mr. Bell wants to know if the PLCHD board can change the
state mandated swimming pool regulations. Temporary permits have been issued and given 90 days to comply with the
requirements listed on the inspections. Law states that an emergency phone has to be within 200 feet of the pool, spa, or
facility. They have the option to put the phone on the inside or the outside of the gate. You are allowed to get a deactivated
cell phone but it must have, a GPS tracker installed for 91 1/medical reasons, Ph levels can change daily, for example: due to
excess rain or urination in the pool', so Ph, levels must be checked daily while pool is open and in use, according to State law,
Hot tubs must be checked year round. Mr, Bell has two pools, one located at Tanglewood Apartment (51 units) and at Bell
Crest Apartments (56 units), Mr. Bell currently uses Roger Stricklandbut not licensed in the State of Texas. Mr. Collins
advised that he was, not sure if the PLC�HD board members have the authority to change the regulations. Definition of a Class
C pools are the following, however residential pools in someone's back yard are the only pool that is exempt from inspections.
Class C polo] is any pool operated for or in conjunction with lodging, hotels, motels, apartments, condos, mobile home parks,
property owners or associations, private organizations and or clubs, schools, colleges, and/or universities are all subject to an
inspection. Section 265-182 stated that complex managers, iproperty owners, association managers, rental owners are,
