Okay. >> Okay. Good morning. >> Yeah. Morning. >> Feels like I feel like I just woke up. There's coffee over there. >> Yeah, some coffee here. >> Yes, absolutely. It's absolutely good evening uh public safety committee and uh residents companies here visiting and
those online. I'm calling this meeting to order at 7:04 our monthly ESC meeting. Calling Woser good morning. >> Nancy Johnny >> here. >> Darwin >> here. John Carlo >> here.
>> Lewis >> here >> and Mr. Pñena >> here. This how we do it in public safety. 100% for participation. All right. Order of business. Deferrals, additions, deletions. I'll give you all a moment to go through and uh evaluate
and see if anything needs to change. Okay, hearing none, we're going to move on to the next item. Uh I'm going to go ahead and uh adoption of March 24th minutes. Do we have any comments related to those minutes? Any concerns? I'll I'll second.
>> Okay. No one made the motion. So, I guess you made the motion. >> I He made the motion. I >> Yeah. Yeah. All right. So, we have uh >> and NR um all here say I. >> I. >> Any against? None. Public comments.
Before we start public comments, I want to recognize someone that served on the committee for how long? Omar >> tentative session. So, Omar, welcome. Always good to see you and your family. >> Yes. Yes. Yes. Um, so I guess I'll kick it off to anybody here on the left side of the room that wants to say any
comments. >> Yes. Thank you for >> No, no. Thank you. >> Hi, I'm Christina Donzalez and I am here because I'm interested in joining this committee if there are any spots or positions available. And I'm also here because I'm also part of the youth
activities task force and we have an event coming up. It is called Bike Rodeo and Safety Day. It is a little bit later on in the year, but we have a subcommittee meeting May 16th at 11:30 a.m. at Mary Collins Community Center, and I am asking if the public safety
committee would be able to kind of co-host that event with us. Um I remember it used to be a public safety committee then so I was just asking bring it up to one of the committee u meetings if you guys would be open to um helping us for that event.
>> Kiki. Yes. >> Questions. >> Yes. >> What specifically if you have something specific that you would want our safety committee members to do helping your committee because you're in charge. Yeah. >> And what would you ask us to to do? So
for the bike rodeo and safety day, just showing up and getting there and then helping to promote and if we could get like any sponsors because at the moment we our budget is zero for that event. So, um, we would need a little bit help
like sponsoring and some publicity and I think having the police safety committee being part of like the safety days for bank would be a good understanding and um, yeah, that would be >> when is the actual event?
>> So, the actual event we have it for September 26, but it can be changed. So, but yeah, guys, it's late later in the year, but we have our first sub committee meeting May 16th, okay, at 11:30 a.m. at Mary Holl. >> All right. I think that you'll you'll definitely get some U folks interested
here. >> I know Nancy is a big supporter. She's there every year. Um, and you know, like we keep talking about in our quarterly chair meetings, >> uh, you know, we have to definitely cooperate. We did something with NIC recently. Um, and I look forward to working with you and maybe we'll do some paper rock scissors and get someone
kicked out of the committee so we can get you in with uh, but none of it's it's funny because you know the um, your name has come up several times. I mean, we would love to have you in in the committee. Um, right now the way it's set up is the fact that we have one member per council member. Um, that's if
uh, the council doesn't go down to five. If it goes down to five then someone's going to get kicked out. >> Then we actually are. But yeah, so um but nonetheless, uh there's been um funny enough that actually it actually came up recently um at our the last regular council meeting
where someone said we want to add one more person. >> The council did not entertain it at that point. Um but it's something that we definitely have to discuss because I know some of the conversations we've had is like, okay, can you just say maybe the vice mayor and the mayor have one more person so we can have two more people. >> Uh but they're saying no, that's not the
way it works. But I think that a lot of times uh things I think people are put to say, you know, maybe no. Um so, well, we'll figure it out. But again, you and your family are rock stars. I mean, they were I don't know if you all know, but they were actually volunteer of the year last year. They do a lot for the town,
including the veterans, which is a which is a monster, and I love working uh with them. Uh they're a great family. And not just them. You have I think your brother is in involved in it, too. And your uncle, right? >> Yeah. >> Is is involved in it as well. So, uh but yes, very excited. And yeah, May 16th. I mean, mark it on your calendar, guys.
Show up. Um, you know, and and uh see if we can, you know, see we work something out. >> Yeah. >> Okay, Nancy. >> Uh, I'm hoping that perhaps we can assist with any promotional stuff for that event. Yeah. And if she's asking us
to co-join with the event or provide certain duties or whatever, then we have a way of promoting it. >> Yeah. Yeah, I mean for sure promoting is easy. We'll for sure do that. But I think what we need to do is I think whoever is interested should show up on
May 16th, Mary Collins 11:30 a.m. and see how we can help. >> Um and some of the things we've been doing is we you know divide and conquer um you know with responsibilities um spreading out sponsorships. But uh but thank you thank you for coming. I want to Yep. >> Just real quick, they're steadfast on
it. One per member, per town council member, but we can't argue. We're starting to do a lot of events. We need additional help. >> You know, that's become like a a bad word that we're doing a lot of events in the town, believe it or not. >> Don't mention.
>> Yeah. So, I think that we have to be I think the the proper um well, technically it's public record, so I guess they can watch this video. But I think what's very important is the fact that we have 100% participation. we're doing a lot of things for the town and that possibly, you know, more help would be welcomed, right? Uh so I think that
um and by all means not that events are a bad thing. It's just that for example, look at all we went through last year for partial heroes. We got grilled out for a year to have a successful event. So I think we just have to be very careful how we say that, but I think we should definitely start exploring it. You know, we have this is a great she this is a rockstar, you know, so to have
her would be great. >> Yeah, we get two if we could get two for one speaking my language, right? Um so um but that's but you know we'll we'll definitely get some more information on that. Maybe we can defer that to uh town management. Maybe we can get some answers before uh next council next uh
uh PSC meeting. If if we can is there is there a way we can have more members? We'll have one too. All right. So that's go ahead. >> Well adding to George's thing um I know you were running a little bit of me. I don't know if you but Sanchez did say
that and the could correct me. Um they want us to partner with other you know instead of doing that small events join and make it a big event because the town budgeted very >> they're starting out. >> No. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's No,
we're definitely starting to do it and page was an example. >> Yeah. Exactly. >> So, >> but then that was brought up in the quarry meeting, >> right? Right. >> In the beginning, really really in the beginning. >> Right. >> Okay. No, let's uh we look May 16th show up. >> Exactly. And we're saying a little before we keep going, I want to take a
special thank you. So those watching at home, these red boxes are from uh Cow Bakery, right? >> Bakery. >> Yeah. Alex is here. So Alex, if you can, you know, thank you again for the treats. And now we'll we'll definitely have some energy to talk about public safety. You want to say a few words uh for the committee and and those watching
from home? Yes. >> Well, good afternoon ladies and gentlemen. My name is Alex Fero. I'm one of the owners of Cal Green Cafe. We're a new location here in Halia Media District and thank you for the opportunity to come here and presentation before you guys. So, I
brought cafe cafe moche um some goodies for you guys. And real quick, I'm going to do a little presentation here for you guys. >> Yeah, please. Let's do it. >> Um so, the first box we're going to pass around, this is our lunch box. This consists of melanoito
and wa. Wow. Look at that. Okay. That's going to be our bunch of box. Check that out. That looks good. >> That that's like a prefixed box, right? >> Louis is hungry. So, pass it on to Louis. No, I haven't. >> So, this the bottom one is a breakfast
box. It's a little mini. It's uh your scrambled eggs, cheese a lot of those in town. I believe this is edible. >> So we got someone ham
meat for you to eat. It's for you to pass it down. Guys, and this is edible, guys. If whoever wants to eat it, go ahead and take it because we have also, you know, a plate over there that we can kind of, you know, grab from. be the judges.
>> So this is what we call our party favor box. This is strictly beritos. So we got our wava casito bros two of them and then our meat. >> So this is more like therapy. >> Those are like a set price I assume,
right? >> Yes, those are kind of tailored for for you guys. We have a set price. the the lunch boxes are 949. The lunch box is um same thing and then a party favor is 449. >> Okay.
>> Okay. >> Now, if you guys are familiar with familiar district, it's right outside of the town of Miami Lakes, right where the really cool granting underpass is. You you go through it to the left. That's where they're at. That's >> We're in the little shopping center where Roman is 71. The yards, the food
trucks, >> we're in that little pocket there. I think it's a good idea to mention, you know, for the veterans for the United. >> No, for sure. No, I would love to work with them and and look, they're they're
they're as you can see guys, you know, a testament to the company who's to they are, you know, we just had uh in fact last week, Alex Kresby, which is the Myiramar franchise donated to the entire um you know, honores that were getting
the junior honores and it was it was a hit. >> Yeah, it was a kid. So they're they're very well known for their product and giving back to the food. >> So here we have two flyers the catering manus and then a regular store menu for the food and then here's a free cafe
cafe. >> I like it. I like >> I also put my card with you guys. So if you have any questions or anything, feel free to >> and make sure like guys, not just for public safety, but maybe you know your office, >> you can go ahead and order from Saturday
when >> I don't feel like we have to appreciate you. >> Okay. Um and Omar, would you like to say anything? Yes, of course. Good afternoon everyone. I'm Omar. I'm on with the
elderly affairs committee. I um I am uh the chair for the senior Olympics. Uh we are Yes, we're we're re renovating um 2014. I believe that's the last one that
happened in Miami Lakes. U I'm in charge of that one this year. We're looking to do it somewhere between end of October, November, u maybe even the end of September. Um, pretty much the idea is that it's a
senior Olympics. Uh, we're going to have several different sports. We're going to have the medals, we're going to have the trophies, we're going to have the event at the Veterans Park. But uh I'm here because I feel that a lot of the committees
are do things and there they get separated when you don't really really know what you guys are doing. You don't know what I'm doing. And instead of going out and getting volunteers from schools and so forth, I came up with the plan to maybe have committee
members from other committees participate as well. >> Okay. Again, public safety will help us really with the whole logistic part of of the event. >> Um, it's my first event, so definitely
anything that I can any help that I can get, I will, >> you know, be very grateful of. >> But I would really really like for somewhere some along the way we participate, we do things together. Um,
and you guys come either similar to what she's doing, >> right? >> Have have your participation. >> Do you guys have like a like a main day that you guys are shooting for and then if that doesn't work? >> We're waiting on approval. We're waiting on approval from the town. I I requested
because of weather conditions and seniors, I requested that first week of November. >> Okay. Um it's tough because November, December, we have a lot of events. >> Yeah. >> So regardless of we we want to do it on a
Saturday at the park, have the sheds, have you know the water. Um perhaps C can provide the breakfast. We already have the logistic part of like the SK schematics of it. Um I'm here mostly because I would like to figure out a way how you can help me.
>> Yeah. >> The our committee. >> Yeah. we've we've done um I know as far as public safety as as long as I've been here maybe when Nancy before me has other you know collaborations that we've had but like the one that we had with you all uh was related to um you know
identity theft right so we had >> we had uh you know the folks come in uh Joe uh from Citizens Crime Watch and discuss you know for 15 minutes it was it was quick but >> but very but good >> yeah it was good quick you know it should probably be longer you know but um but definitely for the senior
Olympics you know something like public safety. I mean, we can probably like you said, like, you know, volunteer. We can help. Uh we we help out with a lot of events. Fourth of July, uh Nightmare Monrose. Lewis is very involved with youth youth activities task force. Um you know, um I'm very involved with uh with your other committee with cultural affairs,
>> you know, helping them out with the main street uh you know, live. Um so yeah, just as as the as it comes up, you know, keep us in the loop, you know, of course. And then we can help you market it. And then, you know, uh you know, >> labor wise, we can we can help out, you know, um with that. And uh I'm sure
you're look your your events are a big hit. I'm sure you're going to you're going to kill it with with your with your first event. >> So So that was pretty much it and and wanted to be here for my >> I'll send you some of the vendors and I'll send you some of the vendors that we use for like trophies and stuff like that so you can >> that's that's that's important. Yeah.
>> Yeah. So you can have an idea for pricing. >> Enjoy the pastitos. Enjoy the >> Thank you so much. >> And I definitely I look forward working with you. >> Some of you, all of you. >> Definitely. No, we're big family. >> Thank you for Thank you for your time.
>> No, no, thank you. We appreciate it. >> Thank you for what you do for the elability and cultural affairs. >> Thank you. >> Okay, so um >> yeah, the uh Okay, so now we're done here with special presentation. I'm gonna turn it over to um to Darwin. any any update from uh on fire?
Um >> so chief um not Chief Boland is the luckily he stayed he stayed in and so that's a contest um in Canada um German distiller auntie and um Captain
Hall. So again, I think at some point we should revisit the um the what? >> The mural. >> The mural. >> Yeah, the mural. The mural. >> Um I think I shared some stuff with you guys. Yeah. And you know, on an informal
note, so something like that. I mean, I I've been now that I I'm back in the field, I've been going around some of these stations and some of them are quite creative, if you will. I do have the contacts, right, for the artist. I know we have one specific that I believe we were interested in working with, >> right?
>> You know, um yeah, it's just a matter of when we want to tackle that project again. >> Yeah. I mean, um really right now it's and and we'll talk about now about, you know, money because there's been a lot of uh outflow this this uh fiscal year.
Um but you know we'll we'll see if um we can maybe get a price to see you know what it is and plan accordingly for maybe next fiscal year or there's something left this year depending on the price really if it's not that much then possibly could do it. The other option is um you know if there's
somebody that's a young and an aspiring artist >> maybe they want to volunteer >> you know somebody that wants to do it you know out of the penance of their heart uh you know to promote their product. You know, >> the good thing is that even the union the union um they so if that were to be the case, I think the union we could use
them as a platform, if you will, >> sort of to, you know, put this person's name out there, you know, through our local 1403. >> Okay. Wonderful. >> Yeah. >> Again, I think it's a lot easier to >> do it inside the station. Outside is a whole different
>> Absolutely. >> process, if you will, because it's a it's it's a county owned building. >> Yeah. So inside the station and then luckily Chief Borline agreed. He says, "Hey, listen. We're going to leave this and I think you guys that when you guys are ready, you know, that's that's that's for you guys." >> Yeah.
>> So, um, specific to 64, I think. >> Listen, I have an idea. Just put it out there and maybe maybe uh you know, I know that when we spoke to uh um um which one is the one that we worked with from uh end
>> um Captain Williams Alicia. Captain Williams has um for fire prevention for fire prevention week uh they have a um a poster like a contest >> and a contest we put it out there whoever wins the contest can compete at the fire station. >> Okay. And make sure you specify
volunteers that there's no payment, >> right? >> You know, then all the young kids want to get involved. >> Well, I mean, think about it. You have an aspiring artist from Barbara Goldman or Miami Tech. I mean, Kiki is a lot younger than we are. I'm sure you got some people that right. I mean, now everything's like AI.
>> Yeah, it is. We got AI in the house. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> So, yeah, that's a good that's a good idea for prior prevention week. Maybe I mean, look, that'd be cool. I mean, I would like my name in a fire house. >> The winner gets the mural. >> Yeah, I like it. You know, throw a little party logo on
>> somewhere in that. >> Yeah, we tell them the uh parameters. >> That's pretty cool. Okay. >> Which station was that? I'm sorry. >> This station has 64 thought. Yeah. So, as many of you all know or maybe you don't know, but uh you know, Darwin is now out in the field, you know, when it
comes to the different, you know, stations. So, his he he's he's very because he's going out and seeing what's going on. Now, he's bringing even more information to us on how we can continue, you know, doing things here in Miami. >> It's funny how some of these stations, you know, I went to station 32, which is
North Miami, and they're close to and I believe I put the picture in our group chat. They're close to I95, so everything is black and better like highway theme, you know, and some of these guys like get real creative. Now that I'm going around my been almost a
little bit over almost six years since I had been out in the field. Yes, I worked overtime every now and then, but now that I'm there like 24 hours, you start seeing these other, >> you know, I work right now out of six different stations, you know, um not necessarily geographically,
you know, like one day I'm in West Miami. That one's another phenomenal stations. The the stuff that some of these guys that they I mean they'll make an American flag out of out of 3inch holes. That's how creative some of these guys get with some of these stations, you know, and it's all about typically
it's the station captain and it's it's ownership that that's your station. That's the station that you're basically um you supervise, you know. So again, you are the official representative for that station. Yeah. Yeah. So, I'm telling you some of these I've been impressed like wow know just how they go
all out. >> So, not really um lucky to have that information. >> Well, we're like station three. Station three is the one in that like the tropical park area and that's the only station that the trucks are red. Why?
Because that's basically in in in memory of 911. So you go inside that station pretty much it's all I guess the way they have the number three it's it's sort of like um a racing like a race car like a number three and everything is is
again set up that way. >> So um station 10 is is sunny house Miami theme Miami Vice themed if you will like the colors you know because it's at the beach and I'm telling you some of these go all out. Do you ever go to the one or
connected with the one in North Bunny Beach that's connected to the What is your book? >> I Yeah. Station 31. That's not my That's I've been there, but that's not part of >> Scott. They call him Scott. He's I believe a lieutenant. >> He might have retired. I don't know. He was
>> He was engaged with my sister, >> right? >> So, >> yeah. >> I haven't been there in a while. Yeah. >> You know, everybody wants some changes. Yeah, we'll take away will take you one. Right. So the uh detective, thank you for joining us. Always good to see you.
Uh is sitting in today for um and we're very lucky to have her. So tell me what's good. >> Oh, so good to see you. >> Likewise. It's um I like sitting in. That's good. Taking over
is perfect. Just so you know, before a matter of starts, he always has a joke. All right, we'll skip it. Alexa, >> um, did you want the >> Yeah, he kind >> Yeah, he he kind of just goes by them,
you know, to see where we're at, you know? >> Right. Yeah. Uh, we're the same or down on all crimes. Okay. uh except for the residential burglaries were were up by three because last year this time we had zero. >> Um but since the last uh report he would
have given there have not been any residential burglars. So that would be the same number that he would have reported last time. Um and then just a note because that did strike me as yeah >> odd. So I I actually looked them up >> and I handled >> Yeah.
>> Wait, that one was mine. Um, one of those was actually one incident, but it involved two locations. So, and it was some the the um individual had like a mental um illness. So, it was it was a little bit of a different situation there. Uh, but
again, so it's it's kind of like two time two incidents, but one of them involved two locations. So, that's why it's >> So, it's one individual, two locations. >> One individual, two locations. Correct. Um and then the other one was um just like a regular what we call it or like a
regular residential bury. But again, yeah, everything else were um at zero and or down um down in numbers. >> Now, the cool the cool thing about having you here is that you you have a different role than everyone. So, what
have you been seeing that possibly, you know, could assist us in what we're doing for future PSAs or possibly things we need to warn our neighbors about? Family that you recommend that you see. >> Um, I'm so glad you asked because I actually wrote it down here just a
moment ago because I wanted to be sure to remember to mention this guns and cars. >> I'll have to say that I think our residents are doing a a much better job of locking uh we're locking our vehicles. hasn't done a good job of locking my vehicles, but not always do
it. And I've been uh you know, I have forgotten myself as well to lock my vehicle, but I sure don't ever leave my gun in my vehicle. I don't leave my personal weapons in my personal vehicles. And of course, I don't leave them in my work vehicle because we we're
not supposed to and we don't do that. But if there's some way to really encourage our residents um not to leave their their guns in their cars, um that's been we're way down on vehicle burglaries for lots of reasons, but um
unfortunately, you know, every time we have a gun taken. >> Yeah, serious is. >> Yeah, it was very serious. And it's just by leaving your vehicle unlocked and your gun in your car, you're practically just handing putting a gun in the hands
of um of someone who's committing crimes. >> Yeah. I mean, it might not be a bad idea to maybe run under pressure on social media from >> and stressing lock it or lose it. And even if you lock it, >> don't leave your gun. >> Yeah,
>> that's that's a big a big thing. Um, unless you have any questions about that, I wanted to also, if this is the right time to mention the camera registration, >> please. >> Yes. >> Okay. Um, the county is uh looking to the
residents for help with um keeping Miami safe and of course keeping the town leg safe. Um, you can I don't I don't know that I brought it up. Um but I can let you u >> it's it's two parts that it's it's two
things. There's a camera registry and a camera integration program. The camera registry is where residents just let us know. They fill out a little form online and they let us know that they are able and willing to help us out if they if we
need their help because they have cameras in their home and they would let us contact them if we need their help and and asking them to either review their cameras or if we can stop by to take a peek at their cameras. We normally do an area
canvas whenever there's a crime that occurs. I go around and I knock on doors. Hey, I see you have a camera. Oh, it doesn't work. It works. Whatever. or or many times they they have footage that is very helpful to us in our investigations.
Um but this would be a super efficient way to reach out directly to individuals who have cameras that work and who are willing to let us contact them in the event that we need their help. So, it's basically just filling out a an online
form, letting us know that they're willing and able to be contacted by us in the event that we may need their help with um with uh camera footage. That's a camera registry, which would be for any individual. Camera integration is for uh
businesses and it's where we would actually be granted uh access to their cameras in the event of a high priority uh emergency that occurs. >> That's really just for businesses
>> and uh the businesses that have connected they can choose to allow us access to only one camera 10 all cameras. Uh many times it's exterior cameras. So maybe the cameras in the parking lot. Uh one example would be if
we had a shooting incident that I handled uh a couple years ago. If we were to have access to the cameras in the parking lot of that location, our our uh real time operations center can
tap into those cameras and help us to locate uh a subject or to direct us more efficiently immediately in real time to where we need to go to be able to keep people safe. In my case and where I live and the
mailbox situation and everything there are 98 homes um to go door to door is time consuming. Who's home? Who's not? Do I have to go back? Do we have any we like the way we have any uh like little postcards or
something or other that we can stick in a doorway and not have to revisit that home? If you have questions, contact me and I'll put my phone number down and take calls because the more involved and interested in what I'm trying to say. I know certain information that maybe
somebody else wouldn't understand. So, I would be more than like more than happy to help with this in any way I can. Like I said, we're 98 homes just in Los Andrews >> and then there's all the other ones around. So, anything I can do to help
offering mine? And >> um >> at this point, I just wanted to be sure that you all were aware of the program that you understand it >> and um in whatever way you can to share the information with the public service announcements or any events that you
have. Um we only would approach uh perhaps if you would speak to neighbors that you visibly see that they have camera, you know, that they do have a camera. We have um these some they could be left on the door and other small cards. I'm not
um passing these out right now. I don't have extra right now and I'm not passing them out right now because I want to confirm that this QR code is indeed the the best one at this time because when I spoke directly to the uh provider um they were going to look for a QR code
that was more direct uh and more specific. So to answer your question, yes. And as soon as I have something that would be more helpful um with getting the word out, I will definitely provide them to you all. >> And those QR code once they provide the
word, we can post it in the website in the Instagram of Miami Dates. the well the you the question that I have is and unfortunately I don't know why maybe I missed it where there's friends that reach out about a trending crime and
um I I don't see it on your PIO putting it out there. So if your PIO and headquarters is doing something for this then we can make a motion to >> the town likes repost that. So, do you have any idea if How about this? Let's
make your job easy. We're going to take I I'll I'll sponsor this motion that if there is a PSA online that the town be posted. So, that's my motion. I have a second. >> Yes. The camera. >> I'll second.
>> All right. So, we have CA and we have um JT. All right. And this motion is if there's a the essay related to the help keep Miami date safe. Is that the campaign? >> Miami night. >> Does that have any other Miami date?
>> Miami date or Miami. >> Sorry. Miami date. Miami date. >> I I believe the actual name is going to be connect Miami date. >> Okay. Connect. >> Okay. So, let's call it connect >> Miami date. >> Miami Dade that the town of Miami Lakes reposted.
Okay. All in favor say I. I any against? None. Okay. So at that point when you get that defective mas you give them some confirmation and you say yes we got it then at that point now they have you know the direction of reposting it. That's the easiest way to do it. And
then at that point if you have that information then we can push it out to our Instagrams all of us. and then kind of build up on that. And then the postcard, you have the elderly affairs public safety representative sitting in the room that can pass out those door
hangers to the elderly service committee. So just to ensure make sure so register the camera is to pretty much give you guys knowledge. I have a camera. If you need it, go ahead. But you still need to ask per resident for
permission. >> Absolutely. It would be a case. Because I know because when you tell them too that's clear that has to be made clear >> and then one for the business you guys can and again just to be clear
operation center it's not just a one deputy it's our real time operation center who log in and they only log in if there is a >> no if if there's a very high priority emergency. That's that's the only reason
that they would log in. They don't monitor. It's just if police are there's a shooting or any type of a high priority um incident. >> That's the only time that they tap into those cameras and just to be able to
provide us with immediate real-time information. Okay, >> I'm going to take a second motion now to have Tammy Lakes repost our lock it or lose it uh PSA that. >> Okay, so who wants to second it? >> John Carlo did. >> All right, so John Carlo seconded. Okay,
all in favor say I. >> I. Any against? None. Okay, so we have lock it or lose it to repost. And we have that. So that's an easy one. Okay, you make me look really bad. I had no jokes.
>> There you go. >> Just for the fun of it, let's vote on something else to do. >> They won't like. >> So good. >> Wonderful. Thank you again. All right, we're going down the agenda. We're now on 7A. The PSC logo. Um we've approved that logo already. Uh
so now, um you know, it's just a matter of us using it on our, you know, advertising as we go through. um 7B partnership with neighborhood improvement committee back to nature. I just wanted to gather everybody's you know feedback on the event. I want I want to hear you all what you felt about
it. Um I'm just going to say um you know actually you know what I'm going to open the floor so we can talk about the recap and how you guys felt about it. >> A little disappointed on the on the outcome. I agree. I mean, as far as the client, the um residents partaking in,
>> well, how how I see it is that the town didn't promote it enough, it's something that it's something that's going to benefit the town. It's something that we're putting together for the town. So, I get it. We try to promote it. You promote it galore. Every time you guys, I go ahead and and
promote it. But >> if you go that week into the town of Miami Day Instagram, they promoted everything that was happening that week except for our stuff. So they did they did, but not not every day that not
every other day like they did all that stuff. In my opinion, it was the first time that we did it. So if we try next year again, it might have a better turnout, but we can promote it more ahead of time. If we already know we're going to do it around this time
for for April, we can promote it more. It's up to you guys. >> Was there a conflict with something else going on? I didn't pay attention. >> Sandbag giveaway. Was it was the sandbag giveaway even did? >> I don't think so. Yeah, it was yeah I
passed by and it was the roof and >> and and I will >> it was a hit and miss but yeah to be honest but being the first time and not being promoted as much and >> the the events are being promoted the same way and we are being promoted the
same way everyone else I will say that to the defense of the town. However, I do think that something needs to change. I think that and that's why I tried to change it uh this time by having >> and I'm not saying it's our stuff. I'm saying >> in general
>> in general because like for example sometime I go to main street and I was like holy crap what this going on now I didn't know it was going on >> and we have a Instagram for the town they we push all that stuff there people can be like oh right I'm going to give
you an example I actually went and went to shred force and did a video and you and you reposted it and those of you online saw what I was doing and I and I asked please repost my video because it was literally talking about the event. So I think at at the discretion of
communications if we do things like that that are actually outside of just you know an image a video and maybe if the town could assist and repost it you know just because perfect example I went the Saturday before to farmers market and I was talking about hey it's going to be
here so you guys know because sometimes guess what happens are you guys looking at this we become so lazy we don't even read any so you're going to get more reaction out of the video than a picture. So, I think that the marketing needs to change and I think that
possibly, you know, we can work with Isabella. Well, that's not really Isabelle's role, but you know, there's other people in the department that that can possibly help >> and maybe we can make it a little more interactive. I think that's what we're I think that's what you're going for. >> No, we're on the same page. >> I'm not saying that it's it was it's
only against us. I'm saying in general Yeah, I agree. >> Every event that's more into the town, it could be promoted a little bit more. I agree a little bit more out there. I I I agree. It's it's a lot of things. I think that it it becomes a flood. There's a lot of events going on. I think that it sometimes get it gets it
dilutes it, right? You know, because but and listen, we you know, we can work with them. We have a lot of smart people in this room. We can figure out how to do better for the future. And and I know that we're not the only committee feeling this way. You know that door swings both ways because if there's something going on, two or three things,
even one weekend, nothing big going on the coming weekend. That's when people say, "Let's go. It's our turn to go out of town and go to the piranha we've got in the Easter." >> Right.
>> We're going to lose people on a weekend that follows a really big weekend. >> Yeah. And it's kind of hard to plan around that issue because we don't really know what everybody else is doing. So maybe at committee chair
meetings it can be strongly discussed. I'll be kind. >> Yeah. >> And we can bring that up more at a committee chair meeting and say, "Hey, we all got to work together here and promoting each other's events and not stepping on each other's toes." The good
news is I will tell you um those of you that were there and thank you for showing up um you know I know some of you were working and who was recovering you know from surgery um people were happy the people that showed up were very happy it was going on which was kind of like really so there's there's
there's people that want this they like it it's just a matter of getting it out to them remember >> it's a hit and miss for all the events >> right not going to be as partial it's going to be a big turn so but that doesn't mean that we should not buy for but next year. >> Well, you know, it's it's next year is
the same turnout. Then you'll be like, okay, so that's it. But >> yeah, and and to that point, it's funny. I was talking to the manager about it and look, >> no offense, but we can add an extra layer. I I know there's some some some
uh nurseries and stuff they donate like trees that you can have because the whole thing is back to nature or whatever, right? You can have a few one day if somebody want to put in the place and stuff. Look, you know, so you can plan this at your house or whatever the case may be. Put a little different stuff to it.
>> Better the example is they had Arbor Day on Friday. Arbor Day doesn't have to be a separate event with back to the one. >> There you go. >> All right. So the any more comments from that event? None. Okay. Uh the the one thing is we do have an invoice that's
already been approved the last uh committee meeting. So we don't take a vote on that when it comes to um Eastrap. >> Uh right. Did you want that one mailed or are you picking that up? Are they picking it up? >> I can ask them. >> Okay. If there's a preference, it's in finance right now process.
>> So, with Shred Force to kind of tell you guys what's going on, they're kind of discussing it internally. I don't know if you all know this, but that service usually cost $1,200 for Shred Force. Um, and they told us 200 and then they were telling us then 600 internally. And I'm
like, look, I was sold 2000. So, we're there's been some back and forth on that. it's going to work its way out. But this is just showing you all how expensive it is to do an event, right? And these events, how important is that they're successful. Now, to the point I was making earlier, the manager, manager
Peter, brought up a good point. He's like, "Hey, Carlos, you got to remember some of these events, they take two times to be successful, you know." So, to Johnny's point, Johnny's right, you know, next year maybe we phrase it differently or maybe we don't do it. >> Promote it more.
>> Yeah. from more anticipation, >> right? You know, so we'll we'll figure out how how that is. However, something to give the idea of FOMO. Do we all know what FOMO is? >> Fear of missing out, right? I just figured that out like a year ago. >> Um I know Katie enjoying my age. So what I'm what I'm thinking uh what I
recommend is and and we can take a motion on it. There's a video that Gani did as a gift to us, our videographer, to recap the video, recap the event. >> Um >> I make a motion that we suggest this video. Okay, perfect. Uh, do we need to show it? Um, um,
>> I can work on pulling it up on the TV. Yeah. >> Yeah. So, we can show it on the on the on the screen really quick. >> Who's doing a second? >> I'll second. >> Who's to who took the motion? I think >> I did the motion >> and then >> and then Darwin is voting on it. Okay.
So, we're going to watch the video really quick and then um the next item is a little off. So, we'll we'll, you know, make sure that we can watch this video. So, the whole idea, guys, what I've learned about marketing is um and it's funny, not a lot of other committees are are doing it, but we are.
Um well, we did it for cars for Heroes. We did we actually didn't do it for the fire station. We had an issue with the video. We need to continue doing a recap because the recap get Oh my god. Perfect example. You're going to see this video now. You're going to think a 100 people went. No lie. I learned it from my good
friend Tucasayor and how to video the the events, you know, and making sure that you have good footage of also pictures and um I think it can work out pretty well. Maybe there's some I know Pat Ry didn't want to use the word retool, but maybe there's a retooling that needs to do with his exit
conference, you know, but uh you know, possibly we can do something else. I guess >> No, I think we're fine. If it's too hard, um I can put it on my phone and that's that's okay. Yeah. Let's see. >> You're going to put it on the screen.
>> Yeah. >> Does it have sound or no? >> Yeah. >> All right. Cool. Yeah, it's a little bit large. That's why she was having a hard time getting it. And I should prepare you. Sorry about that, Isabella. >> Yeah, it's logos. He labelled it logos.
I don't know why >> replay that. What do you guys think? >> Nice. Very successful there, right? Who would have guessed it? >> Laying on 30 seats. >> All right. It is what it is. >> All right. So, you guys like it? Want to
post it? >> Yes, post it. >> All right. Post it. All in favor say I. >> I. Any against? None. Okay. Hopefully clear something to agree with. Yeah, I ran it by. She was fine with so I'll send it to you. >> Wonderful. All right, guys. The fun the fun the fun is here. Oh my god, I'm so
excited about this. All right, guys. Here it is. And Omar's here to see it, too. Boom. What do you think? Most important one is the cow, right? Forget the people. >> No, the duck. >> The duck. >> Today there was a mama duck. Look,
>> today there was a mama duck with like 12 little duckies crossing my neck. >> Every time we go that crazy my flashers because people can pass it off to you. All right guys, so here here's what I did and I really need your
help. All right, I went I I print this and and thank you Isabella for my Is this a a weird request for 11 by7? >> The only one who's requested with me, but >> yeah, >> got it done. I had this obsession with 11 by7 paper. I think it's
>> making her to go find the paper. >> If I went to the room as who's asking for this? >> No wonder there was a light on the side of this building. >> Wonder. >> All right, guys. Here's here's where I'm at. And I'm really I'm so glad that we
have two actually we have three folks in law enforcement in the room that can kind of guide us in this layout. second. So, this over here is the map of our beautiful town of Miami Lakes. The red dots, hopefully you're not color blind, are those related to where I feel
we should put these yards on. All right. Now, what uh uh Chad GPT told me was that you shouldn't put these signs on a main road because they you should not confuse people. >> So, that's what I was going to ask. The
one in 87 that's in 87 or that's inside the the >> You know it's funny that you said that because that one there is where the cows pop. >> I thought I needed to be funny cuz the cows are there. No. >> So I don't know. Maybe you don't like that joke and you want to put it there. There's
>> brown spots on the sign says something. Maybe disagree. >> You never know when a cow's going to escape footprint of a cow, >> right? So the the whole idea guys is and and Nancy this is your your moment here to go down memory lane when you when you
did your >> well >> I'll try and remember >> and maybe Omar Omar too you know can really have some memory when you guys did the last sign um >> try make your kids live here which I thought was cute but a little too long to read I think this one as I miss it very clear right by the way that that
was a very successful uh campaign by all means >> I still see one >> I I still have about Six of them in a box. >> NPSN >> NPSN. Look at that. >> I didn't need any. I have about six of them in a box, >> right? And that was a great campaign. But you see what ended up happening is, and I'm going to tell you why my comments coming from Walmart is because
I have one in front of my house and people still speed, >> right? Because I think they're not slowing down to read it. I have one in front of my house and people still speed. >> They're still speeding. >> Oh, they already have. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Don't you have speed bumps? >> They're they're going to be repaved. >> Yeah.
>> Yeah. with a new with a new street or newer street over the years. >> People just ignore signs on the streets where where they work, if I may interrupt, and I already have. Um, for instance, in Lock Andrews, they're handy
because people are driving slower in this in the they're not going to be good on um like Fairway Drive where people are going to speed anyway. And in spite of that speed bump that's there, >> they're they're not good there. And
they're the trees are so low, you don't see any signs, >> right? >> So it depends on the location. >> But remember these these signs can trees >> the signs cannot go on trees. >> Besides, I know that's why all the more reason.
>> Okay. Because I know you said that that trees. >> Okay. I'm sorry. I misunderstood. >> That's okay. >> Yeah. Yeah. But but I guess >> no that >> when you did your campaign you did them at all the pocket parts >> pocket parts >> right >> now now here's what I'm thinking if you
notice I I didn't do them at all pocket parts and just and by all means you guys can tell me Carlos you're wrong and I have a problem you tell them >> they just need to go up I don't care where they go >> because here's the thing if you look at the greater majority of our pocket parks is on the east side of endings so if you
put them in every pocket park you're going to literally put a 100 signs on the east side of Miami Lakes and really there's a lot of speeding going on on the west side. All right. And people here from the west side will be able to tell me what is going on. I know the greater majority of us are east side from on this committee that want to sit
you know but right now if you all want to talk about it I can kind of give you if you want to we'll handle this by sections. Okay. If you want to go Google top right and please if you interject me if you feel that maybe we need to consider something
that you've seen in your experience but >> if I if I can interrupt you now. Okay. What I found with the signs was that um the only place where they could be seen is if you nail them to a tree and
we're not supposed to be nailing them to a tree. So when you take a very busy street where somebody's going by quickly, if you're not putting it on a tree, it's not being seen. Then you put it on the stand and you put it in the
grass. Now the guy cutting the grass for the town is taking them out and they're disappearing. So the biggest problem with these signs is where to put them where they're not causing problems. If anybody comes up with that solution, the
god. Well, I think what we need to do is when it comes to landscape people, we need to make a motion or uh to have Jeremy and the parks direct department communicate with the vendors. They cannot do away with those signs. They need to go back where they are.
>> We need we need the help. >> All right. >> However, we get it. We need the help. >> All right. So, we can do that. >> Okay. We need more. >> Okay. So, now top right, um if you notice, you have Optimus Park. There's a a pretty long strip there. And I felt that, you know, right when you know, you
get into that little baseball field there, I think that one should go there. Um, and then if you notice, uh, directly south of that, you have two schools. You have our Lady Lakes and you have Miami Lakes Middle. So, I feel I don't know when it comes to putting yard signs. Can
we put yard signs in in school property or we're going to get run into an issue? >> The outside of the sidewalk. >> Okay. So, the swing. >> Yeah. Okay. But then now you're going to have the problem with the kids messing with it and you know >> during dismissal or when they're waiting to get into the school, you know, it
might not stay there too long, >> right? >> So they'll use it to play, you know, whatever, >> right? Unless you think that we should move it somewhere like closer to the baseball fields. I just thought that because there's schools there >> by Mont in front of Montasuri, nobody should mess with it because those are little kids,
>> very little kids. And you know, they go inside the gate, the parents walk them into the school. I think it'll have a a longer period of um life. >> Well, you don't think the middle school kids will >> Well, yeah. While walking to and from I mean, >> yeah,
>> the middle school kids maybe run this by the public works department because they also pick up signs if they don't know about them. >> Like for instance, they had to pick up a farmers market sign because it was in a rightway. So that's not allowed. So run this by them. >> Yes.
>> All right. So we have both parks and breakfast. We have the parks and the proy we got public works. >> So we have parks and public works. Okay. So now right now it's it's almost 8:00. So if I
go by every single section, I'm just going to go ahead and not go individually to each side. I'm just going to say section one. Any comments? Section one is top right. How about this? I'm not going to call it section one. I'm just going to say top right. If you're looking at this, do you do you
recommend a sign should go anywhere else or you disagree with where a sign is right now? >> Well, not in the area. >> Okay. I'm hearing no comments. Um, we're not looking at um bottom right. This is Darwin's neighborhood.
>> That long strip people are speeding down your street at Lake Patricia. Yeah, >> there's one in that in that intersection where where um down by the bottom there. I see that. And if you notice, the one that's a Miami Lakeway uh south is the one that's
next to that electrical area they did all the construction on because I don't think someone would mess with it there. >> You don't think you need one? I'm sorry. Lake Candlewood. >> You've got two.
>> You know what I'm saying? >> You You've got three in that area. I would move one of those three. The the middle one maybe right above the word lake. >> Yeah, >> perhaps. And put it on Lake Candlewood. >> No, but here's the thing. We have 130 sites. >> Whatever you want to do.
>> So, if you want to put one on Lake Candlewood, we can just put one there. >> I have one. >> All right. So, let's put one on Lake County down here. Guys, the problem with this is and where I my eyes will cross with this thing is because I got to have two maps open. I got to have this one open that gives me the street names and
then I had a satellite one because the issue is that if you go to Lake Candlewood, Darwin will be the one to tell me because he's that's his block. Where is there a park? Because we should put it at a park. We can't put it in someone's house. Is there a park on Lake Candlewood? I think it's all the way towards Miami
Lakewood is the problem. Or is there a park in between Lake Patricia? >> Yes, there is. >> Okay. So then would you say it's further south to the bottom of the page? >> Further south. >> I would you see you see the red dot near
the word center? >> Yeah, >> that's number one. Number two is the one above lake. Move him just around the corner above the letter A in lake. >> Well, he had
NP over by Lake Candlewood. >> And you've got your three. >> He has enough signs. We're going to add another one. >> Sound like you made it sound like you didn't want to add another one. Okay. >> Because here's what I'm thinking about. >> We have We can handle this se several ways.
We can say which will be easier. I have no problem volunteering, but it will make it easier. I bought one box. Okay. There's one box right here. I think if Darwin's gonna handle his neighborhood, Darwin's gonna get four of them. All right. And then you put them you put
them there in your neighborhood wherever you find them. Or if you like, hey, I don't have the space now. We can only just get together on the weekend and I have the truck and I'm bring >> whatever whatever works. >> So what what I hear from the commentary here is there should be one one more lake handlewood,
>> right? That's what I'm hearing. >> Yeah. >> All right. Now, the other ones, just to give everybody here like a heads up, the rest of them are parks. Lake Patricia, the bottom of the lake, that's a park. The the other road there is a park. And then you have Miami Lake, which is a hot spot for speeding. One is in front of
Elevate Church, which you know, I thought there was three services, but there's always someone speeding in the morning going over there. Um, sorry, I keep telling the cops about um and that's that. Then if you look at a little bit higher, there's a little red
dot. That's in front of Publix. There's a park there. In front of Publix. That's where the other sign is. Is there any more commentary with the bottom right? Okay. Hearing none. I'm going to keep going. Now, we're going to the bottom left, which is a hot zone. Bottom left.
We're still on the east side of Miami Lakes. Bottom left. Okay. The one that's in a circle, that's in front of Mr. Pena's area. That's Miami Kate. I'm thinking you put it in either in front of Miami8 or >> Can I have a street name? the park. >> Where is this? Miami skate throughway
center of Miami. >> Miami cave. Where is it? >> Yeah, right there now. And that's actually not the park. That's the growing place is right in front of it. So >> Oh, yeah. >> We can put it as a growing place or we can put it at >> I'll just copy >> Miami.
>> In between. >> In between. Bam. Then to the left of that, to the west of that, that's the park you're talking about where they had the arbor um thing this last weekend. That's the park right there. Then when you go slightly north, you have Mahogany and Palmetto. Those are parks.
Another hot spot, Despine Avenue in front of my house, there is is a hot spot, too. Then the other ones that you see, Leaning Pine, you have Bamboo Street, you have uh Sable Drive. Those are all parks. Sable Twin Sable Drive. That's also a
park. I can't believe he actually speeded on Twin Sable Drive. And there's a stop sign there. And they speed. Okay. Then you have that the dead man's curve over there on Big Cypress Drive where the where the par three is. People speed through that. I can't speak through that because you can't even see the other side of the curve.
Then the hot spot that we have is we have Miami Lakeway south. Okay. So now looking at if you guys have an idea, let me just point here. This area is very hot, pristine. In fact, they run radar here on the weekends. Okay. So, um that
area right there where there's a a swale and then you have um that little dot I was going to talk to you about where you want to put that little dock. So, I'm going to put you a map here. Where do you think where you want to put
the link? Cuz there's an issue between the town and Cypress Village condominium. >> Okay. Okay. So, you're talking about over here? Right here? >> Yeah. >> This guy right here. Yeah. What's the problem? >> That village condominium is going to have a problem if you put it if you put it here.
>> Can you put it outside of the sidewalk? >> That's a main street. Maybe we should put it there. >> Take it out. >> Yeah. And I believe you should take it. >> Take it out. All right. X. All right. Now, the one that's on the main street, but I do think it's pretty bad. Is >> unless you bring it down people. What is this, Tom?
>> That's Loch Ness. You could put it there. >> If it's outside of the sidewalk, it's town property. >> The Yeah, I know. But there's an issue between the town. They're going >> Okay, cool.
>> That's why. >> Okay. So, we'll take that one out. All right. And then there's one there on uh uh there's a a wide street there that I think that is a grass area where people ski there. And then the other one is um NY's favorite street fairway uh fairway drive.
>> I think there that both of us. >> Okay. So I have >> there there is a very small speed kind of new very stopping anybody. >> Okay. >> And that is the speedway of that part of
the neighborhood. >> Well that one I put one there by your house. >> I would put two. >> All right. Where you want? We put two one on each side. >> Middle one on each side. >> Either between each stop sign. >> So the one that
I think you just move that one and put >> That's right. >> Two on fairway. >> Two on fairway. >> Two on fairway. Yeah, because fairway is like a freaking >> You already know that. >> Exactly. >> How the heck did you get past that thing that was on the sidewalk of North Fair on North Fairway? When where you make a left turn?
>> I saw you coming down the roadway and they had something on the sidewalk. Why? I don't even remember speeding Gonzalez. >> I I share that with >> All right. Miami Lakeway South is a few other areas there. Now, Lock Lman, I'm not sure we can get in there, but I do recommend a few of them in Lachlman. One
after the garg on the left side and one on the right side. Both of those areas that I have in Loman are parks. All right. Anything else on the east side of Manny Lakes that you guys feel is is a hot spot that we need to put aside? No. Captain,
>> no. >> All right, we're off to the west side. This is where I need your guys help. on the west side. Um, as as we all know, the bottom left is is commercial, >> but we do have a dog park that I think is a dog park on the bottom left by
where the body of water is. All right. And then we have one area where a lot of people walk that is by uh Commerce Drive. Okay. That should one should go there. I'm a little confused as to the the bottom left. There's a couple of developments down there that are town homes. I'm not really sure there's
issues in there. Nez, do you know there's any issues? You see where it says Commerce Way? >> There's two bottom >> there in the morning big galore >> that I have one on the main street of Commerce Way. But in those developments, do we need to put anything in the small developments down here?
>> No, because you're not going to be able I don't think so. It's a gated community. They're rentals. >> Both of them are gated. >> Okay, got it. So, those two are Xed out. Okay, Commerce Way. So, right now in Commerce Way, guys, we have one and two. If John, you're saying it's a hot hot area, maybe we'll put one more in commerce. Done.
>> If I could just back up for a minute. Um, for example, in that area where you're considering it, um, you can always reach out. Um, and I can help you with this uh, with HOA or uh, property managers and you can just maybe offer
them a sign or two for them to place where they fit. And it's a opportunity for you to have contact with them and and it's an opportunity for you to be able to um advertise future events because those property managers and HOA presidents have group chats and they
they just post things for us and they'll blast everything from our lock it or lose it to any type of events. I would recommend not giving them a sign to put up where they think is best because like me, they
would stick it on a tree and get in trouble. >> Oh, we we just let them know that they can't get on the tree. >> Yeah. >> Well, I would have a little more control from that because we're going to get blamed >> right now. >> And then then you got to pay to have it taken down and put up again. That's hard. >> Okay. The next one is Okay. The the next
one I go into before I go into uh uh into Baldwin uh Veterans Park. I think we should have two of them. One at the south side and one at the west side or Veterans Park. And then there's a road where people are always speeding that if you see where Any Menendez University is. There's a
crosswalk. I think we should put it by Any Menendez University. And I and I don't think that our PE our friends at station 64 would mind if we put one on their soil. >> Okay. So, that's where it is right there. Now, let's get a little more complicated. Let's go to Baldwin Road. I'm hearing a lot of complaints from
Baldwin Road. People speeding. Okay. That's that road that runs Baldwin when you see it. >> You mean Belgian? >> Sure. >> The one with the G in it. >> Yeah. Yeah. Okay. >> Yeah. So, that one I'm saying two cuz people are speeding it. And then the others are some parks that are in there.
Now, here I'm totally flying dark when I go into Bob Graham Educational Center. I know that we can get I I recommend us having one by uh by drop off Johnny by 79th a where bias is usually stationed more or less by that area and then on
the other side of BGC you have um oh I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm on the wrong street. So on 79 a you see I put one on the left hand side and then on 77 which is perimeter road I'm saying to put one by the exit because you have some you know
activity with kids walking. So I recommend the search. The issue is in that in this quadrant. I don't know about these streets if there's >> that 186 they used to be four lanes and now they put one in one lane and put like a bicycle lane in the middle
regardless they they brought it down to one lane on each side. People still speed galore in that. >> Okay. Are you talking about by by the PLC >> by the by the Bram uh high school? I'm sorry. By the >> Oh, you're talking about Mar. Okay, never mind. >> Yeah. So you're talking all the way on
the middle side. No. No. Yeah. Yes. But then in 80 second that you only have one in the in the on the in the other side of 154. What I recommend is after 160 seconds there a light there. Also put another
one there because that one is also people speeding the lower than 82nd. Okay. Hold on a second. Let me follow you. I'm looking at 82. I have one on 82nd Avenue on the right hand side. >> Yeah. You had that one by the offices? >> No. >> Yes.
>> No. Yes. Crest. Cuz this is Isn't this a Silver Crest? >> Yeah. Yeah. But you you you get into that that spot right there between the offices and the and the and the school. >> That's this one right here. Yeah. >> But this is this is 82nd. >> Correct. >> So you're saying here there's one on 82nd. Where where else do you recommend?
>> You see after 162nd? That's a light in that area there. So that light you should put one in that area there between 162nd and 170. Okay. Right. On the left hand side. Yeah. >> Carlos, >> tell me,
>> um, you know that 170 is now open, >> right? >> The 17 is open all the way to >> not to Halia to um >> the expressway. >> Right. To the Turnite. >> To the Turnpike. Yeah. So, I think in
the future it's going to be a lot of cars going through through 170. >> Yeah. Oh, right now the the cars galoid going there in the morning because the combinations are going over the bridge coming back >> plus the the school. >> But now >> but now the question that I have to you
all is when it comes to again the top right of the west side maybe Lewis you possibly know in here I just when I drive back here all I see is homes but is there any pocket parks in this area where they put it? >> Yeah, we have a lot by our house. So,
right by Rolex Park, it's right next to a canal. There's a tot lot kind of like in in this little closet area up here. There's a canal like >> Oh, I see what you're saying. Yes, you see a basketball court here. >> Yeah. >> Okay, cool. That's But what street is that? >> Oh, god. That's
>> Let's just call it by TR Music. TR Music. There you go. I don't know what TR Music is, but they're going to become famous tonight. So, over here, that's there's a park there. We need to put it there now. But that's we keep talking about the left side and we need help here on the right side. We have a
lot of area here. We got nothing up here around and find a spot. Look also in 154 and 87 where you have the spot for the cow. Instead of put in there, put it in 15 like 154 going
in. >> Yes. Because that spot there, there's the round the ball at the end. They speak the lower there, too. And there's a lot of people walking. >> Oh, you're talking about where you get off. >> Yes. >> What? >> That's where 153rd Terrace is.
>> Correct. There's a lot of kid on bicycles and and walking in the afternoon in that area and people break out. >> You kind of make it area. >> So, all right. So, this is all we do right now. I need you guys to take us home and this weekend drive around town
and and see where else you guys want to film. I have the signs, but right now we can divide and conquer. Okay. So, how are we going to do this? You going to give us a sign or you Well, the signs are right here with the sticks. Do we need to take a picture and be like, "So, can I put this here?" And then she'll be like, "No,
>> it's not for me this department." >> All right. So, we're going to go ahead for now and um we're going to put these uh well, I guess do we need to run these by the departments as well? Because I mean >> if they have >> I would suggest so because what if they're like actually you can put it you
know I don't know I don't want to speak on their behalf. I know that's why it's better to ask for for the different spot. >> No, in the case you will put it somewhere that we're not supposed to. They'll be like, "Hey, what happened?" >> Yeah. >> Listen, guys. >> Is there any issue? >> I will listen. I'll take responsibility
for it. Decide they're going out. >> Okay? I'm not waiting any long time. So, the signs are going out. I will send it to the departments. If they have an issue with it, I will personally go myself and pick them up and move them. Okay? Whatever needs to happen. All right? So for right now, >> are there any issues especially in that
area with county versus town? >> Uh 87 and 67. >> So faster if you want. >> Yeah, right here is the issue. >> And right over here is
>> so in fact I might have an issue. Right. 87 Avenue is is where the cow >> means. Got it. >> I know. in the center. >> Huh? >> Right. 8754
right here. All right, guys. Let's take um let's take a vote on this on this on the map layout. I I sponsor this motion. >> We got to keep going. >> All right. Uh Nancy. All in favor say I. I. Any against? None. Okay, guys. Uh the
to move quickly along. We the yard sticks were not included in the quote. They're $300. So, um we have to that's that's the additional cost for the yard stick. >> What's the cost? >> $300. >> Motion. >> Motion approved. Motion is approving the
>> layout. The layout. Okay. >> Layout. >> Signed layouts. >> Yes. Okay. So, I take a motion for the $300 of the R sticks. Do I have a second? I'll second it. Do you think we can get any um >> eyes? >> I >> I >> I. >> Any against? None. Say again.
>> Do you think we could get any companies to support that? They would want advertising. >> Yeah, at this point. Yeah. >> All right, guys. Let's keep moving big enough. We um law enforcement awareness month. Um okay, Isabella, if possible, let me know if there's I don't think there's going
to be any charity ground. >> I Yeah, I don't know if you saw my message about that. Uh, it would be I can give you an answer like more week of it would just be one if that's the case though. >> Yeah, >> I Yeah, there's a guarantee for anymore. >> Is anybody interested in going to the chamber lunch?
>> I'm the only one that doesn't work. >> Okay, it's May 13th. >> I will be speaking, okay, about public safety committee time. >> Honestly, I won't be the main spot speaker. Okay, I can't public safety at all. But I will be I'll be speaking for three minutes about public safety. our
initiatives. Uh Renee Garcia, our commissioner, will be speaking. He's the spot next week. So, if anybody wants to go, um you just have to let let me know beforehand because there there's tickets involved that we have to uh get in. Okay. That is >> what is this? >> It is May 13th.
>> What time? >> It is usually uh networking starts at 11:30 and it goes all the way to 2. >> What's the latest we have to we can let you know like >> um be included? Um well uh >> date wise >> date wise can be a date up.
>> The thing is that we have to take a motion as a commit wants to go if we to pay the tickets to the unless you guys want to pay the pay your own way. >> What is the cost per person? >> It's $45. >> Yeah. It's $45 per person, you know. So
>> how much money would the um committee be able to put up? >> We're kind of tight. Believe it or not, we're kind of tight, you know. I mean, listen, I will pay my own way because I do it as a business every month. >> I'll pay for two tickets. No, mine and somebody else.
>> Yeah, I'm the same. >> Who can go? >> I can go. >> You're my date. >> I'll be your date. >> Okay. So, Nancy and >> and Darwin, do you think you can wear white >> for for a fire? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Okay.
>> No, I'm not buying. >> And how much is it? 45 per ticket. >> Yes. Well, where last year was short? Yeah, short sleep. Okay, perfect. That way, >> and I told you I'm already working with So, you're going to go in anyways. >> Exactly. >> Okay, perfect. And that way, um, so
we'll go ahead and the whole idea is that when I speak, we'll go together. Okay. >> Because Amador is going to be speaking about a few things, too. Got it. >> Okay. So, if you want to say a few things, too. >> Okay. >> We kind of say collectively as a group. >> Okay. I like it. >> And we three will sit together at least.
>> No. Yeah, we'll sit together. He's going to go through his business. I'm going through mine. You know, obviously, by the way, this is an event. So, you can wear your polo public safety polo. >> Yes. >> And and where else wants to go. >> Okay. So, um the only and the only reason why guys I'm saying about usually
like last year we picked up a tab in public safety, but I feel that we have to be careful because of the swimming lessons, which we'll talk about now. We got to move very quickly, you know. So, um so that's that. Now uh we I I did
meet with uh MDSO about uh coffee of a cop. Coffee of cop will be at mayor's cafe. Uh that's the decision that was held by MDSO. Um so we will be there um you know on May 15th. Why is it May 15th? Because that's peace officers memorial day. All right. That's why
we're that's why it's that day. It was something that um I discussed with Major Ganszo when he was our major before he and um essentially that's what we're doing here. So this flyer is in front of you all if you all want to review it. If you have any commentary celebrating peace officers memorial day and law enforcement awareness month residents
are invited to popular cop to connect with those who protect our community, share concerns and ask questions. Mayor's cafe, I already spoke to Jeffrey, our old uh vice mayor. He's aware of it. Um so is there any commentary related to this uh this flyer? No. Maybe. Great. Okay, we can
start marketing it already. Wonderful guys. Okay. Uh, Zonta. Um, if I know I know the you know you guys are aware of Za will I'll be presenting at Zonta. Are you gonna be there? You should be there. >> She's going to be there um with Detective NZ. Detective NZ will be
joining me um at Zulta the dinner. Um I believe it's uh April 28th. >> May >> tonight. >> May 28th. >> I was going to be late. I was going to say what are you doing? I'm busy. Oh my god. Okay. So yes um uh May 28th. May we're changing April to May.
>> Yes, we're changing that to May. Um, and if you want to go and speak a little few words about fire, you're you're more than welcome to join that day, too, Darwin. I'm not I don't know the ticket prices for that one. Do you remember? Um, maybe. We'll find out. Okay. So, that's May 28th. Okay. Now, um, public
safety video on golf carts, guys, I also have MDS about that. That's on me. I I've been, you know, a little busy with things. Um, but yes, that's something I have to do. Um, and I'll I'll keep you all posted. Uh, we did discuss some ideas. The laws are very tricky when it
comes to the golf carts. They're very it almost seems like loose with it. So, the video is actually going to take a little bit of a twist really into safe, right? We can talk about enforcement all we want, but the enforcement is, you know, it seems to be kind of loose. So, um,
not that anything against NBSO or, you know, the guys that protect us here, but just seems to be tricky. So, it's going to be really geared towards safety. Now, uh the next item is Cars for Heroes. I uh NDSO wants a flyer ASAP because
they need to start u securing assets. We also need to start um going through uh Captainio. He needs to put this through Miami Day Fire Rescue. Um this uh this flyer um you know was really like last second the way she did this. Uh, there's
some things I definitely I'm not really too sure about. I mean, I guess here's my question, Isabella. Is there a way that possibly Johnny and I can work on something and send it to you guys based on those? >> Sure. If you want to do that, I would just have to make sure it meets the branding guidelines and we can go from there.
>> Okay. What are those guidelines? >> I can send you our branding guidelines if you live. >> Yeah. ClariS will send it to us already. Oh, okay. if you haven't already. >> I mean, the whole thing is, and I think you and I are on the same page, Johnny, it's very similar to what you did. I think we just need to add the
information. >> Yeah. Yeah. >> And now the question that I have for you as Isabella, if let's just say Johnny and I are working together with communications and and and and we give it to you and Clarisel says, "Hey, listen to our our branded guy." At that point, can we push it to Darwin? Can we
push it to NBSO already? >> It need to be approved by council first. >> No. >> No. the event. It's not a new event, so you don't have to get reapproval. Right. Right. Um, so as long as players still, then should be good. >> Perfect. I mean, how about this? Let's
take a motion to vote on this. And let's just talk about the changes. We're going to remove the cars, right, Johnny? We're going to add uh food trucks. We're going to add DJ. Is there something here about a You guys want to add the golf carts?
>> Yes. Are we doing motorcycle this year? >> Yeah. Remember say last year they really you know inquired as in to want to be a part of >> the more the marrier. >> So you're saying remove the cars, no
motorcycles, add the footstarts. >> Yeah. Actually, no. The the motorcycles on the golf carts is something of That's why I'm asking because I know it was brought up last year that if we were going to extend it to also motorcycle, >> but but here's the thing, guys. I'm
fine. I'm fine to continue this conversation. I just need a flyer. >> Oh, no. No. Yeah. For the to to get going. And I I don't know. I just don't like the way the the Evo looks here. The pool car and the C4 is my least favorite Corvette. That's my opinion. >> Yeah. >> Uh but yeah, I mean,
>> we could put it for now. Oh yeah, we have >> say that you need to discuss the changes here because since you're both on the same committee because of sunshine law, you can't go back and >> right. So >> it has to go through me. Whatever. >> Correct. So that's why we're we're discussing the changes. So then in that
case, let's do this. First thing is >> mention it again. Go slow. >> Yeah. >> All right. Here we go. First >> Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, hold on, hold on. First, first is first. Okay, hold on a second, guys. Number one, we're going to add food trucks. These are mine and Johnny's going to
step in and put his number two. Hold on. Hold on. >> Are we going to add an actual foot truck to the to the plier or we Gemini did a really cool one. Okay. Sick one. >> Okay. Okay. I don't know. >> I gave him
each thing you mentioned wanted to have him agree and he got one vote. >> No, that's what we're doing. So, I'm running all the changes and then we take a motion on all these comments. Go ahead. DJ >> DJ. >> All right. I don't know what we called it last year, guys. Prizes.
>> Awards. >> Awards. >> Awards. >> Awards. So, like you got three awards for uh best in show. Okay. Number four.
Um, do we want to write open to guys? I don't know about the motorcycles. Let me tell you. >> No, no, no. Yeah, for now. >> I know they always start out, but I don't know. >> No, it could be a different it could bring a different kind of um >> Yeah,
>> a different Yeah. >> Okay. For now. And then we can write um open to open to golf carts. Okay. Again, our golf carts community is huge here. Nothing against the motorcycles. I think we can just iron it out later on, but
it's a different type of crowd there. So, >> it could be problematic. >> Okay. Okay. Open to the golf course. Okay. Um, so we want the Miami Vice theme, which I don't think we need to do that because this is obviously Miami Vice like that. >> You mean colors or
is here? >> Mhm. >> Okay. And then we need to add fire and police flags. Okay. Because I think >> I think you have it right. You just have
to run the the box. >> Yeah. Yeah. So I did the >> you got to run the chat again the the prompts. >> Okay guys, what else do you guys have changes for this thing? Cuz so we can rush through this. It's about getting me late. >> Let me just verify already. So come on people.
>> Let me just verify with you. Bo trucks, DJ awards, best in show, golf carts, fire, and police flags. >> Yes. Okay. >> And what was the part about the Miami Vice colors? >> It's already there for keeping it. >> Yeah. >> Yes. It's already on there.
>> I didn't know if we were keeping it or not. >> Yeah. I think for now if if he runs this on on Do you have Are you using Gemini? Is that what you're using? You're not giving away your secret. That's okay. Now you'll give away your secret. So you
can run this. You are you cool with this? What else? Give up. >> No. Yeah. And then that's it. That's it. That's all we need to put in there. >> Perfect. Then we send it to Isabella. Isabella will tell us yes or no. And then we'll go from there. >> All right. because NDSO needs it like yesterday and so does fire. >> Okay, so you made the motion.
>> I'll second. >> All right. All right. Here we go. Are we pretty much the same assets that we did last year? Those were awesome. I mean, listen, if between MDSO, MDF fire, whoever wants to fly a helicopter over will be the coolest thing.
>> The banner. >> No, I think I was asking for too much. I made a motion. Who seconded it? >> Nancy. >> Nancy. >> Any All say I. >> Okay. Wonderful. Next item. Is it Are you with that motion?
>> Perfect. All right, guys. Swimming lessons. Take it away, guys. Okay. So, so I went to the PSN pool and pretty much they they told me that we can actually rent out the pool. So, it's
$200 for two hours and then 150 for each additional hour. Um, they do charge us 150 as a deposit for cleaning just in case something happened that they need to clean the pool. If they don't need to do anything, they'll return the 150. I
spoke to the supervisor over there in in charge and I asked him because it's a county event for the town if that can be waved. provided me the email for her bos so I can go ahead and pull that information there and they can come back
to me and tell me yes it can be waved or no you guys need to pay for it that $200 cover lifeguards on duty but it does not cover uh instructors and she pretty much told me there's two hours that you guys have the pool for yourself the amount of
people that you can bring is based on the capacity of the pool I think it's 60 people that you can do and they go from there. But I I explained to her what you what we were trying to do. She told me, "Yes, there's some some company that have actually done that the the pool to
their kids or whoever going to swim, but it's been done before, but she doesn't know if that can be waved or not. So, I'm going to submit all that information tomorrow to see what they come back to us. If they tell me that yes, it can be waved, perfect. If it cannot be waved,
then we kind of have to pay it oursel and then we need to determine if we can actually handle that this year and if not we can plan for next year or we already know what the ball park will be. >> Where are we going to get the instructors and how much are they?
>> The instructor they have instructor there so they can actually provide and tell us how much would it be at the same time they tell us that we can bring in instructors. Uh, I can reach out to a few of people that I know that they know how to teach swimming. I know how to
teach swimming, so I can jump in and do a class. I've done that before. >> But would they have to be like officially certified? >> No, they don't. >> So, there's no liability. >> There's no there's no liability, but they are going to have lifeguard on duty there. So, regardless of the situation,
they are going to be there providing protection to to the whole team. Do we have to have insurance? >> No, that's what she said. No. No insurance. But again, I'm going to submit all that information so her boss can actually confirm. Yes. Yes. No. Yes.
And then once I have all that information, we provide it to Isabella or Carlos and they push it through. If they tell us yes, you guys can go with it. And that can be way perfect. If they tell us no, you cannot do it, then we
plan accordingly. But my my whole point is if they can actually wave it, I don't see why we should not do it. If they tell us, oh no, you guys need to pay, then it kind of have to be like on a voting system to see if we going to can actually afford
it. And for this year at least or we got a plan for next year, right? So, so here here's a concern guys and gals. To Johnny's point, I'm gonna add a few things for commentary. Uh Miami date county has uh zero drown
prevention program and one of the schools that sponsor this is peniscent. So that tells me that they will host the class. The issue that I have and this item 7G
is closely tied to 8A is how are we going to go to council for approval with a bunch of unknowns. >> Mhm. >> I went through this with the cars for heroes and it was not pleasant. I don't want to
go through it again. >> No, you have to have all your answers. So I I did submit the report to council, but I don't think we should report to council until we have more. >> Correct. Until we have all >> right. Um there's too much at stake
here. So I think that we should go according to the schedule we have which is June. >> What can happen here? Possibly we can get to do this event. The issue is the event will be in July which at that point you know could possibly be a
little too late you know for the swim lesson or really is it late >> no remember it's summer July >> August September >> right and at the end of the day the whole point that that I that that I'm
been bugging for this is not because it's a summer event it's a knowledge event because unfortunately it only take two minutes for a kid to drown another pool >> and you can drown year round >> by the by by the time that the parents go inside to grab a beer and come back
or gra go grab a bottle of water come back something happen. So to get that opportunity that people they can do not afford to at least go and get the basic of floating and get them one class where
this can actually save somebody's life. It can be in December, >> right? >> In Florida. So, >> it doesn't matter. >> Now, the whole thing is guys that the way that this committee is going right now with so many things going on, >> we're going to start taking a page from
other committees where we're going to have people that are like chairs of events because there's just a lot going on. So, Johnny's the point person for this event because he has passion about it and has been wanting to do it for years, right? Mhm. >> So the only thing that I'm doing for
Johnny is in this obviously support to him whatever he needs and then I know that there's somebody that I got introduced to today that is supposed to be the in charge that will be pretty much the glue to whatever John is doing. Like for example when we go in January and we're doing the uh the open house at
Station 64 the chair for that will be D you know because he's essentially the one that is right now and any other events that anybody else is passionate about you guys kind of do. I think that like for example Cars are Heroes that's the one that you know I'm going to rock because it's huge you know and that's
the one that you know I'm very familiar with um you know but as we're going through the whole idea is to kind of all of us kind of come up together and do things uh you know uh give everybody an opportunity to kind of grow in the roles you know um and and listen I can't you know as as you can see I can't do
everything on my own so with that said I defer item 8A um to uh the next meeting to discuss our our next council meeting is uh 5:19 and uh the next PSSE meeting is is 5:26. We have a busy month ahead. I want to
let you all know for law enforcement awareness month. I did talk to uh town manager as uh April is uh autism month. So guess what? Town hall is lit up in blue. Love work month is blue. So the light's going to stay the same for next
month. So we have several events. We have the chamber. We have coffee with a cop and we have the zone to dinner presentation. And then um you know if if anything else comes up where we have a really good opportunity for law enforcement awareness month like something came up
last year at last minute which was the um the VA somebody all of a sudden wanted to do that. Worst case scenario we'll have to have a special call meeting if something like that happens for law enforcement. Uh but um >> but I think if we verbally put out word.
We all belong to other committees and we can just see what we can contact now and try to say hey we want to do this you think you might be interested to submit >> for what further >> yeah that's what you want to do
>> no I'm not saying that I'm just saying that company comes back and says they want to put but >> all right so going to offer if they find out the event is coming up so you gota >> 8a you're deferring to what date No, ADA. We just defer it. We don't have to do anything about it. >> Okay. So, just just deferred.
>> Yeah. Yeah. That's at this point. Okay. So, >> yes, I emailed you all, but just June 4th from 6:30 to 8:30 in council chambers, there's a special call meeting on proposed town committee budget. So, I guess this is for the next meeting. Um
so basically all town committees will present their proposed budget for next fiscal year 2627 to town council including dates for each proposed event estimated attendance at each event from the prior year cost of each event to the resident/public and number of sponsorship dollars collected for each
event from the prior year. So all this will be reported to town council at that meeting and then they'll approve of each event and each budget for the next visit. So that means that by next meeting guys we need to have this information completed by Junth right because we'll meeting we'll literally be
meeting four week prior out >> right and um the deadline is like the end of May to make sure it's included in that agenda >> in that agenda because that ends up being it's not in other words that meeting is like a special call meeting for the council um they have nothing else to discuss but that
>> exact >> all right and the way that I at least for what I'm suggesting to you all keep something in times. I'm suggesting we at the very minimum get $4,800. Okay. Our and now $4,800 was when we used to have to committee before we got slashed in
half at $2,200. Okay. Um you know, which we were supposed to even be slapped even further by our mayor. He wanted to do $1,200 of it and then council and backed by others was able to give us 200. So the reason why I'm telling you this is is so that you all be prepared for what
is your argument going to be? Why do we need that money? And I think what you have to also realize is you have an argument to make. What is going to be your argument? And I think we have some pretty good ones. We have yard signs. We have PSAs. We have events. We have recognition to our law enforcement and
our and our firefighters, our first responders. >> So be very cognizant about what is the fight you're going to put together. I think we bring a lot to this town. And um that's all I have to say. With all of that, I adjourn at 8:39.
I don't think we need to take a vote on bird. I don't know why. >> Usually there is. Okay. >> But there we go. >> All right. Say hi. Okay. Byebye. Thank you everybody. >> It was Carlos and Nancy, right? Salmon.
