      1. Discuss/Take Action – Roads Interlocal Agreement Collin County. Determine scope of work and length of term.- Mayor Schell talked to Ruben Delgado and if the city has an agreement to asphalt twelve roads, he assured me they would all be done at the same time. If part of the work includes ditch work all that will be done at the same time and the same for culvert work. Council agrees to request bid from the county to chipseal every rock road in the city including the negotiation of cost on CR 544 being that half belongs to the county. Council motioned to table until bid information is received from the county.

      2. Discuss/Take Action – Public Safety/City Hall, Fire Dept. Building Project. Review plans and information to move forward with Rural Devlp Loan Program. – Paul has included a special septic on these plans. This system allows them to hose out the bays so that the oil and fluids that come out of the trucks is not going into the regular septic and then out to the ground. It has a special tank that will need to be pumped and hauled off. Council is concerned about cost of system and if this is required by code? Council motion to table until they can get more information on the special septic. Mr. Shea a representative of the NVFD requested that the council open dialog between them and the NVFD on an agreement of services and cost. The council concurred that they did not want to start that process at this time until they get a building cost to determine if the project is even fesable.
