22 - Summary Report - West Paris Town Hall MeetingsItem No. 22
Memorandum
TO: Mayor, Mayor Pro Tem & City Council
FROM: Grayson Path, City Manager
Rob Vine, Deputy City Manager
Doug Harris, Assistant City Manager
SUBJECT: West Paris Town Halls
DATE: December 11, 2023
BACKGROUND:
On August 14, 2023, Mayor Hughes provided the City Council a presentation to publicly announce
a series of upcoming town halls in west Paris. For some time, councilmembers have heard from
the community that west Paris has been "left behind", and so in order to try and understand what
this means, it was decided that the City should hold some town halls to give residents a chance to
explain this to us. In partnership with the Paris ISD, PEDC, and CitySquare, we held five town
halls at the following locations and dates:
A special thanks to each of our hosts for their great support and assistance. Everyone was
very accommodating and helpful and we are grateful for such wonderful partnerships.
Each town hall had the same purpose: hearing from citizens regarding concerns they are
experiencing in west Paris to help us understand what the term "left behind" as compared to other
parts of town might mean and to perhaps garner some context to formulate a response. There were
five separate events, with three offered at night, one during the day, and one during the morning,
with the hope of trying to make attending at least one event possible for as many interested citizens

Page 1 of 12
as we reasonably could. While city officials did offer some response at the events, our primary
goal was to listen, take notes, and begin to analyze what we were learning.
We had a great turnout at all five events with many individuals speaking during the town hall,
some meeting with city officials after the town hall to discuss concerns, and still others submitting
a survey. As a side note, our steering committee made the decision to restrict surveys to those who
attended the event as we wanted to encourage direct participation via attendance at the town halls.
If anyone ever has a concern that they would like to submit to the City, they can always reach out
to their councilmember or the City Manager's office by phone, email, or in person. In total, we
had about 53 individuals either speak during a town hall and/or submit to us a survey. Many others
attended but did not speak or submit a survey. We had a plethora of city officials attending,
listening to the concerns as they were being made. These individuals were (whether at all or some
of the meetings):
1. Reginald B. Hughes, Mayor
2. Mihir Pankaj, Mayor Pro Tem
3. Gary Savage, Councilmember
4. Rudy Kessel, Councilmember
5. Shatara Moore, Councilmember
6. Grayson Path, City Manager
7. Rob Vine, Deputy City Manager
8. Doug Harris, Assistant City Manager
9. Richard Salter, Chief of Police
10. Michael Smith, Public Works Director
11. Robert Talley, Code Enforcement Supervisor
12. Kimmie Snowton, Police Community Outreach Officer
13. Janice Ellis, City Clerk
14. Stephanie Harris, City Attorney
15. Randy Tuttle, Assistant Chief of Police
16. Jon McFadden, Public Information Officer
17. Nicki Brown, Code Enforcement Officer
Our goal with the above list of participants was to cover areas we foresaw to be topics of concern
by our residents based on our past experience.
Following the events, individual city councilmembers as well as the City Manager attempted to
reach out directly to various attendees in order to continue the discussion, particularly if any input
we received was vague. While time did not allow us to visit with everyone who attended, and many
we attempted to visit were not home, we did have an opportunity to meet with about 17 individuals.
Page 2 of 12
In addition to the home visits, following each town hall, we began processing the various input we
were receiving to identify potential tasks we could address right away. The goal of this was not to
wait until after all five events took place before citizens saw some response from the City, but
rather if an item of immediate opportunity presented itself, we would attempt to work it as quickly
as possible. This has required a redirection of city resources to focus more attention on this effort,
but given the public attention this initiative brought with it, we knew that immediate tangible and
visible responses was important. Until we are able to raise more resources and/or direction is
provided by the City Council, our ability to sustain this focus will be limited, however we will be
working as hard as we can for some time going forward to address more of the concerns raised
during the town halls. It is important to state as this point that while it is difficult for any individual
person to see the full scope of work we do as a city across the entire community, I would like to
assure anyone who reads this report that to the best of my observation, while we can never claim
to give every citizen, block, street, or quadrant of the community a perfectly equal amount of
attention and/or resources as others during any set measurement of time, we are in fact doing our
best to try and serve as many of our residents all over town as fairly as we possibly can.
Unfortunately, with limited resources including staffing, time, and especially funding, priorities
must be made and worked. This is not made any easier when we include changing codes, policies
and politics. And at the end of the day, city officials, from the city council to city management to
city staff are human, attempting to do the best they can, when they can, and with what they have
to do it with, for the most good possible. Nevertheless, we always strive to improve and we
continue to want to hear from citizens regarding any issues they see out in the community so that
we can try to address them.
Another important point to raise before we dive in to the summary of the meetings — it was often
stated that citizens were having difficulty getting responses from city officials (council,
management, and/or staff). Having been here for over three years, unless something predates me,
I can attest that nearly none of these instances raised during the meetings was ever brought to my
attention by the citizen. Therefore, I would like to encourage every citizen that should they ever
experience difficulty getting information and/or responses from a city official, particularly a staff
person, please reach out to their supervisor and ultimately if that were to even fail, reach out to my
office. While we can never guarantee to provide a response that a person desires to hear, I would
like to at least make sure that they get a response.
SUMMARY RESULTS:
Having completed all five of the town halls, we have attempted to compile all the feedback. This
report contains a summary table, pie chart, and an itemized listing of all comments we took note
of (see the end of the report). Without listing each response verbatim, we have attempted to
reasonably compile each response while creating some uniformity and commonality in the
verbiage where possible. Please know that we took summary meeting notes of all five meetings;
Page 3 of 12
those notes as well as the surveys, are all available upon request and may not contain every
comment given at the town halls.
While we easily could have created more, we have categorized all the input under 29 separate topic
headings. The heading titles are based on our municipal operational terminology to better help us
internally direct each concern to the right department. The breakdown of these topics is shown in

While not necessarily the largest topics, the three overall largest concerns expressed in the town
halls were 1) tall grass, 2) drainage, and 3) dilapidated structures. Some other notable concerns
expressed in large numbers were streets, tree limbs, utility rates, sidewalks, streetlights, and trash
pickup.
Analyzing these stated issues, we unfortunately do not have any suggestions on how we might
"solve" them as they tend to be a fundamental issue that communities all over the nation struggle
with on an ongoing basis. Whether there be legal, political, cultural and/or resource constraints,
we are hampered on enforcing these matters to the point ofpreventing their occurrence or ensuring
that they will never happen again. While prevalent in west Paris, many of these issues are not
unique to west Paris. None of this is the answer anyone wishes to hear, but unless we are able to
significantly increase our revenue resources (taxation), based on current knowledge we have today,
there will always be a limit to what we can do with each of these topics. We will continue to listen
closely for policy ideas, new technology, changes in Texas legislation, etc. that we can educate
Page 5 of 12
ourselves on and/or adopt. And of course, should the City Council direct that any issue, or any
portion of town, take priority over others, we will redirect resources as appropriate.
It is important to note that not all concerns expressed are ones that the city can address, or at the
very least address in the near future or without significant cost. Several examples: 1) the topic of
homeless and/or squatters is a rather complicated legal issue, 2) utility rates are indeed high on
account of the Waste Water Treatment Plant project and while we have implemented several
actions to help alleviate this for our ratepayers, we unfortunately cannot decrease the rates, 3)
installation of sidewalks is indeed an ongoing desire for the City, however the sheer cost to do this
in mass makes it challenging; 4) like sidewalks, as we recently learned regarding Tributaries 4 and
6, the issue of drainage is also very expensive to address outside of isolated instances of clean up,
and 5) trash being picked up once a week was addressed in our recent bidding process for solid
waste services. In addition, we will try to investigate the concerns raised to determine that 1) we
truly captured the issue being expressed and 2) we are in fact able to address the matter. Some
issues may be civil matters (ex: some drainage issues are on private property instead of public).
There is much more that could be said, but these are generic overall statements from the concerns
raised. We have not prepared a point by point listing of whether each item is one we can or cannot
address. I also cannot state that we will "follow up" with every individual on any and all concerns
they have expressed in these town halls as that is not always efficient given the dynamic demands
we are up against daily. I would however encourage anyone seeking communication on an issue
to reach out to my office and we will get you in touch with the appropriate staff person. With this
all being said, we are (and have been) going to try and address as many of the concerns raised as
possible because 1) if they are indeed public issues, 2) if we have the budgeted funds and 3) we
don't have more critical matters needing attention first, then it is part of our job to address them.
Furthermore, we are working on making available to the public an online portal where individuals
can submit concerns for our investigation. We envision this portal to offer better opportunities for
the citizen to interact and even track progress.
CONCLUDING REMARKS:
In terms of development and infrastructure, portions of west Paris are older than much of the rest
of Paris. I believe we are going to learn more about this at the conclusion of our Housing Study,
but with aged portions of town there is a reasonable expectation to experience a greater number of
nuisance issues and infrastructure concerns as compared to newer portions of the city. One way to
stimulate change is to see new development, particularly in residential remodels and/or new
construction. Our Five in Five Program is one such initiative designed to target much of west Paris
for the purpose of encouraging rehabilitation in the area via new housing construction. We hope
that the Housing Study will provide us additional ideas on how we might further stimulate change
all throughout town, including west Paris. This however does not happen overnight. In the
Page 6 of 12
meantime, we have a few recommendations we might provide, but are absolutely open to more
that the City Council may have.
In regards to any specific issues raised during the town halls that anyone would like further
information on that was not covered in this report, we would encourage the resident to contact the
City Manager's office and we would be happy to sit down and discuss it in depth.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Based on the input provided, the topics of greatest concern are indeed topics that we focus a
significant amount of resources in the budget towards each year, all over town. Another way of
saying this, they are perpetual issues that we combat year after year (ex: grass continues to grow).
It is therefore our recommendation that:
1. Where specific issues were raised (ex: a specific streetlight is out), we work to address
them as quickly as possible.
2. We continue towards completing our Housing Study to hopefully gain thoughts on
improved policies for stimulating rehabilitation and growth.
3. We continue to incrementally increase our funding in Public Works and Code Enforcement
(the two departments who are tasked with addressing the predominate list of concerns
raised) each fiscal year to try and accomplish more than we currently can do.
4. We work to create an online portal where citizens can report any issues and concerns they
have to allow for better tracking and accountability, particularly internally.
5. We continue to encourage residents that, should they ever experience issues with
communicating with city officials, they report these to the City Manager's office.
