>> THANK YOU. NEXT ITEM OPEN FORUM.

MR. MAGNUS? >> YES, FIRST UP, HAVE MS. --

>> HOW MANY PEOPLE DO HAVE? >> FOUR IN TOTAL.

>> THANK YOU.> IF I MAY. I WOULD LIKE TO REMIND THE PUBLIC THAT THEY ARE ALWAYS WELCOME TO PARTICIPATE IN PUBLIC FORUM. THEY NEED TO BE FAMILIAR WITH THE RULES OF THE QUORUM WHICH PROHIBIT DIRECT AND INDIRECT ATTACKS A MEMBER OF THE COURT AND INDIVIDUALS ALSO COUNTY BUSINESS AND CANNOT BE THREATENING.

WITH THAT BEING SAID, I WILL DO MY BEST TO TRY AND TRANSLATE THAT IN SPANISH.

YOU. THERE IS A THREE MINUTE TIME LIMIT. I WILL ADVISE WHEN THERE IS ONE

MINUTE. >> IT SEEMS THAT THE FIRST MEETING OF THE PROPOSED COURTHOUSE DRAINAGE PROJECT HAS BEEN HELD. THE CITY CALLED THE MEETING AND NO ONE CAME.IT WAS BILLED AS AN IMPORTANT COMMUNITY MEETING.

I THOUGHT IT WAS BRILLIANT TO ALLOW THE CITY TO TAKE THE LEAD ON A PROJECT, IT IS NOT FUNDING AND THAT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY HAVE CONSEQUENCES IN ACCOUNTING NOVEMBER ELECTION.

BASED ON THE PRESENTATION, THERE IS A $93 MILLION PROJECT THAT IS GOING TO SAVE THE DOWNTOWN AREA FROM FUTURE FLOODING. I WAS SURPRISED THAT NOT ONE OF THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS, NOR THE COUNTY JUDGE, ATTENDED AND EVEN THE PROJECT ENGINEERS STAYED AWAY.

I HAVE ONE QUESTION FOR THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.

THE COUNTY HAS NOW SOLD $428 MILLION IN BONDS.

SO IS THIS $93 MILLION FOR DRAINAGE IN ADDITION TO THAT TOTAL? AS YOU KNOW, EVERY TIME I'M ALLOWED TO SPEAK IN PUBLIC, I SAY SOMETHING BECAUSE THE

[00:20:12]

PEOPLE CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY THE DEBT THAT YOU ARE ACCUMULATING.

IT DOES NOT MATTER IF THE MONEY COMES FROM THE STATE OR THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. AT SOME POINT, IT ALL COMES FROM US. WE CAN SEE THE INCREASED TAXES ON THE PROPERTY VALUES, THE APPRAISAL DISTRICT IS SENDING OUT. YOUR ACTIONS ARE MAKING IT MORE DIFFICULT FOR PEOPLE TO OWN PROPERTY.

NO LENDING INSTITUTION WILL ACCEPT THE PROPERTY VALUES THAT RESULT FROM YOUR ACTIONS. THERE WILL ALWAYS PERFORM THEIR OWN APPRAISALS. YOUR ACTIONS ARE INCREASING POVERTY BECAUSE PEOPLE CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY FOR YOUR DEBT.

IS A REASON THAT NO COMMISSIONERS, NOR THE COUNTY JUDGE ATTENDED THE PUBLIC MEETING? COULD IT BE BECAUSE A PRODUCT WILL DESTROY COMMERCIAL AREA AND JOBS? CONSTRUCTION IT TAKES TWO YEARS, WILL CHANGE BUYING PATTERNS AND CUSTOMERS MAY NEVER COME BACK. THE BUSINESS ALONG THE CONSTRUCTION AREA ARE THE DOWNTOWN OF EDINBURG.

ONCE CONSTRUCTION START, BUSINESS WILL LAY OFF EMPLOYEES AND THEY WILL GO TO GET OTHER JOBS IN OTHER COMMUNITIES.

THE NEXT PUBLIC MEETING WILL BE ATTENDED BY MORE PROPERTY OWNERS BECAUSE WE ARE GOING TO HELP ADVERTISE THE MEETING.

ANDREW HELP ALL OF YOU CAN ATTEND BECAUSE THIS IS A COUNTY PROJECT. TODAY ON 20 E1 HAVE 1283 $50 GIFT CARDS THAT YOU ARE GOING TO GIVE OUT AND THAT IS A TOTAL OF $80,033, IF THIS IS SUCH A GREAT THING WIRE PEOPLE BREAKING THE DOOR DONE INSTEAD OF YOU HAVING TO ENTICE THEM OR WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL IT? I SAY BRIBERY OF $50, TO GET THAT. I HOPE THAT THE PEOPLE DECIDE NOT TO BECAUSE THE PEOPLE THAT ARE GETTING THAT ARE GETTING THE VIRUS FOR MORE THAN SOMEONE THAT HASN'T.

THANK YOU.> THANK YOU MAN. >> MR. MAGNUS?> NEXT UP WE

HAVE MARIA -- >> HELLO.

>>.

>> HELLO, GOOD AFTERNOON MY NAME IS MARIA -- ACTIVE LEADER IN -- CURRENTLY I AM ORGANIZING THE NEIGHBORHOOD FOR LIGHTING OUT OF AN AREA THAT WHERE THERE'S A LOT OF CRIMINAL ACTIVITY GOING ON. MY NEIGHBORS AND I DID HAVE THE TRUST TO GO OUT AND PLAY BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE LIGHT AND THERE'S A LOT OF DELINQUENCY GOING ON I WAS ALSO CONCERNED ABOUT A PROJECT. THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT FOR ME AND MY COMMUNITY. I HAVE TWO CHILDREN AND IN THE FUTURE, THEY CAN BENEFIT FROM THE PROJECT.

FROM BEING PHYSICALLY ACTIVE. N THE FUTURE IT WILL OFFER FOR EXAMPLE, PLAYGROUNDS, LEARNING ACTIVITIES CAN HAVE CHILDREN A BETTER EDUCATION OPPORTUNITY IN THE FUTURE.

THIS IS MY STORY. BUT JUST LIKE ME THERE ARE MANY OTHER MOTHERS IN MY SURROUNDING NEIGHBORHOODS THAT WANT THE BEST FOR THEIR CHILDREN. I WANT THEM TO BE SAFE IN OUR NEIGHBORHOODS. ALSO I NEIGHBORS OVER TO START ORGANIZING FOR STREETLIGHTS AND YOU'LL BE HEARING MORE.

THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU.

>> MR. MAGNUS. >> NEXT UP WE HAVE ANTONIO

VELASQUEZ. >>.

SHE IS HERE ASKING FOR THE COURT TO HELP SUPPORT WITH THE STREET LIGHTING. THERE'S BEEN MANY YEARS WITHOUT LIGHT AS WELL AS HELP WITH DRAINAGE AND AGAIN, THE REQUEST IS TO SUPPORT THEM IN THEIR ENDEAVOR.

AND CURRENTLY, THEY'VE TURNED IN THEIR APPLICATION AND SO

[00:25:01]

THEY'RE LOOKING FOR HELP AND SUPPORT.

MR. MAGNUS? >> NEXT UP WE HAVE ARTHUR

FLOREZ. >> MR. FLOREZ? THERE IS A THREE MINUTE TIME LIMIT. WILL ADVISE WHEN THERE IS ONE MINUTE. I WILL START WHEN YOU START,

SIR. >> GOOD AFTERNOON GENTLEMEN AND LADIES. MY TOPIC TODAY IS, IS DOCTOR -- COMING TO HIDALGO COUNTY. HE DOES NOT KNOW MUCH BUT LAST WEEK YOU MIGHT HAVE HEARD JOE BIDEN SAY THERE WILL BE ANOTHER PANDEMIC COMING. YOU CAN LOOK IT UP ON YOUTUBE.

I'VE GOT MY PHONE. IT'S A VERY SHORT SPEECH.

HE SAYS, THERE'S ANOTHER PANDEMIC COMING.

HE DOESN'T KNOW MUCH, BUT HE KNOWS THAT.E DOES NOT KNOW THAT PUTIN DIDN'T CAUSE INFLATION OR THE GASOLINE PRICES TO RISE MORE THAN DOUBLE.

BUT HE KNOWS THERE'S ANOTHER PANDEMIC COMING.

I CAN TELL YOU ONE THING, IT WILL COME JUST IN TIME FOR THE NOVEMBER ELECTIONS. THE REPORT FOR JUNE 28, 2022, TODAY, TO 29,000 DEATHS DUE TO THE VACCINE AND HOSPITALS NATIONS 15,800 BELL'S PALSY AND THE LIST GOES ON AND ON.

THE QUESTION FOR THE DR. I'M SORRY, I MEANT TO SAY MELENDEZ.

HOW MANY OF THE VACCINATED CHILDREN UNDER AGE 18 LAST YEAR, HOW MANY GOT INFORMED CONSENT? THOSE ARE PEOPLE THAT NEED TO EXPLAIN ABOUT WHAT IS IN THE VACCINE, WHAT IT MIGHT CAUSE, WERE THEY TOLD THAT IT IS NOT SAFE AND EFFECTIVE? WERE THEY TOLD THAT PEOPLE IN THE AGE RANGE ARE FALLING DEATH OR PARALYZED? THE PEOPLE PUTTING THE POISON IN OUR CHILDREN ARE SUPPOSED TO TELL THE PATIENTS EXACTLY WHAT IS IN THERE.

AND THEY HAVE TO HAVE A SIGNED INFORMED CONSENT IN ENGLISH AND SPANISH. IT IS NOT SAFE.

I JUST TOLD YOU WHY IT IS NOT EFFECTIVE.T WAS JUST MENTIONED THAT PEOPLE STILL GET COVID EVEN AFTER THEY HAVE THE VACCINE. BY THE WAY, JUST AS A REMINDER.

THE NUMBER OF COVID DEATH LISTED IN THE HIDALGO COUNTY WEBSITE, HOW MANY DEATHS, DIED OF COVID AND NOT JUST THOUGHT OF SOMETHING ELSE AND HAPPENED TO HAVE COVID? HOW MANY FAMILY MEMBERS WERE ENCOURAGED TO LIST COVID AS CAUSE OF DEATH FOR MONEY? I KNOW ONE PERSON WHO WAS ASKED TO CHANGE THE CAUSE OF DEATH. WOULD YOU LIKE TO MEET HIM? BY THE WAY, IF YOU GET SICK OF COVID, YOU DO NOT NEED TO HAVE THE VACCINE DOESN'T WORK THERE'S MEDICINE YOU CAN TAKE.

HYDROXYCHLOROQUINE. CHEAP AND EFFECTIVE.

PLEASE, STOP TAKING THE VACCINE AND IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST, LEAVE OUR CHILDREN ALONE.

THANK YOU. >> THANK YOU SIR.

>> MR. MAGNUS? >> THERE ARE NO MORE SPEAKERS.

>> COULD REPEAT THE NAMES THAT WERE UNDER THE DRAINAGE

DISTRICT? >> YES THAT WOULD BE ALEJANDRO HERNANDEZ AND -- COMMISSIONERS. MS. HERNANDEZ AND MS. GARCIA, WERE OUTSIDE BUT THEY THOUGHT IT WAS AT 2:00. THEY THOUGHT IT WAS ONE AND THE SAME. THE TOPIC IS RELATED, CONNECTED WITH COUNTY BUSINESS SO, WE WILL ALLOW? OKAY MS. HERNANDEZ. MS. HERNANDEZ,

SPANISH] >>.

[00:31:24]

CHILDREN SO THEY EY ARE ASKING FOR HELP WITH RESPECT TO THE DITCHES AND THE DRAINAGE ISSUE BY WAY OF WATER NOT RECEIVING PROPER -- MS. GARCIA?

>>.

>> THANK YOU. >> I'M ALSO FROM -- AND I WOULD ALSO WANT TO SAY THAT I WOULD LIKE YOUR HELP.

AS YOU CAN SEE, THE IMAGES, THERE'S A LOT OF RAIN.

LAST YEAR WHEN THE RAIN WAS VERY BAD, A LOT OF PEOPLE GOT IN TROUBLE. THERE WAS ALSO A LOT OF COVID.

WHEN THIS HAPPENED, THREE PEOPLE DIED AND IT WAS TOO MUCH. I'M ASKING FOR A MEETING.

WE WANT TO DO SOMETHING IN THE COMMUNITY AND NOW THE KIDS ARE HERE. WE WOULD LIKE TO GET SOME ANSWERS AND FOR YOU TO COME AND HELP US.

THERE IS ALSO, WE WOULD ALSO LIKE TO ASK FOR HELP WITH FUMIGATION AND THERE ARE ALSO SIX STREETS THAT ARE HEAVILY, GET FLOODED HEAVILY WHEN RAIN COMES IN.

[6. County Judge's Office]

SO WE ASKED FOR YOUR HELP AND WE THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

>> NEXT ITEM SIX A, COUNTY JUDGES OFFICE.

[00:35:10]

PROCLAMATION DECLARING JUNE POST TRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER AWARENESS MONTH. GOOD AFTERNOON.

BEFORE THE PROCLAMATION IS WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO CURE A VIDEO THAT WAS PUT TOGETHER FOR THE MENTAL HEALTH COALITION AND

COMMUNITY MEMBERS. >> GOOD AFTERNOON COMMISSIONERS, PUBLIC AFFAIRS DIVISION.

I WILL BE ASSISTING IN READING THE PROCLAMATION.

WHEREAS THE NATIONAL CENTER FOR PTSD DEFINES POSTTRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER AS SOMETHING THAT MAY DEVELOP IN PEOPLE WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED A SHOCKING, SCARY OR DANGEROUS EVENT; AND IT IS ESTIMATED THAT 6 OUT OF EVERY 10 MEN AND 5 OUT OF EVERY 10 WOMEN MAY EXPERIENCE AT LEAST ONE TRAUMA IN THEIR LIFETIMES; AND OF THOSE WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED TRAUMA, THE NATIONAL CENTER FOR PTSD ESTIMATES THAT 6 OUT OF EVERY 100 PEOPLE WILL DEVELOP PTSD SOMETIME IN THEIR LIVES; AND 12 MILLION ADULTS IN THE UNITED STATES HAVE PTSD DURING A GIVEN YEAR; AND 8 PERCENT OF WOMEN AND 4 PERCENT OF MEN WHO EXPERIENCE TRAUMA ARE LIKELY TO DEVELOP PTSD; AND AS MANY AS 20 PERCENT OF U.S.

VETERANS AS A WHOLE AND 30 PERCENT OF VIETNAM VETERANS MAY DEVELOP PTSD; AND RAISING AWARENESS ABOUT PTSD AND ANXIETY DISORDERS CAN REDUCE ITS STIGMA AND INCREASE THE VAST NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO DO NOT GET THE HELP THEY NEED; AND PTSD AWARENESS MONTH IS AN OPPORTUNITY TO RAISE SUCH AWARENESS ABOUT PTSD AND TO ADDRESS ANY STIGMA. NOW THEREFORE, BE IT PROCLAIMED THAT THE HIDALGO COUNTY COMMISSIONERS COURT HEREBY DECLARES THE MONTH OF JUNE AS POSTTRAUMATIC STRESS AWARENESS MONTH AND ENCOURAGES THE COMMUNITY LEARN THE SIGNS OF PTSD AND THE RESOURCES BY WHICH TO OFFER HELP TO THOSE SUFFERING FROM PTSD .

>> MOTION CARRIES. THANK YOU.

[APPLAUSE] ARE WE READY WITH THE VIDEO?

NO? >> I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE A COUPLE OF WORDS THAT WERE PREPARED THE LAST COUPLE DAYS ON BEHALF OF THE HIDALGO COUNTY MENTAL HEALTH COALITION.

POSTTRAUMATIC STRESS DISORDER AFFECTING MILLIONS OF INDIVIDUALS, MANY OF WHICH DO NOT YET RECEIVE SERVICE.

IN FEAR THAT THEY MIGHT BE LABELED AS DAMAGED OR WEAK.

AND MORE, THE PSYCHOLOGICAL, MENTAL AND EMOTIONAL CHANGES AND THEIR LIVES NOT BE A REFLECTION OF A TRAUMATIC EVENT. WHAT THEY SHOULD KNOW, IS THAT HIDALGO COUNTY IS HERE FOR THEM.

THAT AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT, THERE IS A PERSON THEY CAN REACH OUT TO. SOMEONE TO SHARE WORDS WITH.

OR PERSON THAT CAN LISTEN WITHOUT JUDGMENT.

I HAVE WITNESSED THE RIPPLE EFFECT OF ONE PERSON VOICE.

[00:40:02]

AND I FELT THE SUPPORT HIDALGO COUNTY RESPONDS WITH THE HELP SOMEONE IN NEED. A MESSAGE AND REMINDER TO THOSE WHO MIGHT NEED IT. YOU ARE NOT ALONE.

WE ARE HERE TO HELP. WE STAND AGAINST THE STIGMA, AND WE STAND BY YOU. THANK YOU.
