good okay so i'm calling we're calling to order at 7:04 p.m uh public safety committee meeting uh thank you uh those that are here and those that are watching uh virtually i'm sure we have a
very big crowd and staffing of the internet along the way okay nonetheless peter call roll carlos andre here nancy rogers is on our way johnny torres here darwin not here john carlo here lewis
lopez and mr horge here okay so for for u mr secretary for now let's just wait because i know that a few members um are on their way so i don't want to mark them absent right now okay order of business any uh deferrals additions
deletions do we need to discuss further the reimbursement for you it's part of the agenda okay i was going to add it i didn't get a chance to read it it's part of the agenda okay yes all right let the record show that
darwin is here darwin is here sir yes okay so actually before i continue on item number three something that um i need to look into and i'll i'll ask uh town managements are we currently now
under the new rules committee rules is that now effective um i don't believe there was a final decision yet on council the minutes are still being made so i once i have more information on the rules i'll let you all know okay yeah so so for now the way
this is presented on here i just put it absent for you for darwin and mr pñena i don't know if when those come in i don't know if that's excused or not i have to look at the rules but for now i'm just keeping a dialogue i don't know i gota i got to look at them again right just
letting you guys know that um that will be tailored or or tailored better said to the new rules once they become final and i review them either way you all should track the attendance just for your report to council they like that attendance tracker part of their employment so now mr secretary you'll
see that i put a and that's something that we should definitely maintain going forward so would you like um okay so that's going to continue as is like that is that how you want it on the minutes i would recommend it okay because what's going to happen now is so that you all know when we do a report to council and
it goes to uh the town clerk she will decline a report if it doesn't have the actual absences on the attendance so just keep that in mind hey council so then um as far as any any deferrals
additions of allegiance okay seeing none i'm going to move on to the next item which is adoption of the march 25th uh meetings thank you mr johnny torres for stepping in for mr next time you're going to go on
vacation got to run it by me your pto i'll double check for that okay if you all need um i'm going to make a motion to adopt the minutes do i have a second i'll second it okay
mr darwin seconds that do you all need a minute to um review them or do you move forward with a vote i think you can move forward okay all in favor of adopting the minutes of march 25th 2025 say i i i any against none
we're moving forward public comments uh none online and none in person okay great thank you all right special presentations miami dade fire is not here um i will say though uh you know there is a lot more dialogue with miami date fire i think garmin was part of a
round chain that's going on today so we are establishing more of a relationship with them and you know in the near future i'm sure we're going to have much more involvement uh with them so i'm you know that's part of uh the minutes that we'll discuss yes sir do we list the
sheriff's office and fire department representatives on our roll call should we do that or they're not official members okay um i will tell you that uh deputy amidor did text that he's in traffic so he is he is on the way okay and then um what we'll do is we'll do the same thing as last time we'll just
you know once he comes in and he settles in we'll call him and then he can say his um you know his report for the month okay now we're moving on to old business the first item which is the reimbursement okay so let's let's let's make sure that um um i state what
occurred with this matter this was um this was discussed during our december meeting however the reason why i will not be reimbursed is because we did not take a vote on the amount that i was going to get reimbursed for
so that is okay from this point forward whenever we have a specific event like we're going to vote on today we have to say specifically what that amount is we take a motion on that amount and then when that event occurs that expense
occurs then i will submit it to the town for reimbursement so yes sir can we retro the action that we missed and do it now from what i've understood and isabella and i have gone back and forth with this quite a few times and yes sir this is
public safety yeah you're you're upstairs no i'm just talking oh you're not ad network you're home then okay you want to give us a raise if you want want to give us more money ask us yes you want more money thank you for
your support okay uh so uh retro if we could go retro action let me ask you yeah yeah let's talk about it because we did talk about yeah and it's on record and we did talk about moving amount of money to it but because
we didn't say it was $90 and we only moved 310 i think it was we're going to give you $90 because we didn't say it's going to be two persons 45 90 yes so that because of that reason essentially yes so that's why we need to do the vote
today on how many people going to this other event yes but let's say for example not all of them go they say seven but then at the end of the day five goals was was the same thing it's not the same amount so why
can but this one can be the same amount but the one before cannot i don't understand that part because we did say that we were going to move 300 i think it was $310 that we moved that we agreed to move just for that particular reason i'll let isabella talk do you spoke to
claire all about yeah i spoke to cl so what happened was literally it's just it's a chain of events that happened that pretty much that's what the result is what it is we had a motion in december that we were going to do this for human trafficking awareness month then we have the miami lakes chamber
event that occurs in mid january then at the end of january we have a report to council that's due that's talking about the allocation of what we're going to put on that budget category for the for the lunchons but we never took an action before the event occurred of what the
expense was going to be and if i should be reimbursing look in december minutes i looked myself and it doesn't have any expense associated with human trafficking awareness initiatives that you all did so that's we identify for that event that's correct that's the problem so the
problem is not that we didn't move the money it's that we identify for that particular that's correct but what but we articulate isn't it in the recording that we specifically articulated it's we did articulate it but we don't take a motion on the actual amount okay and that's where look and we can't do that
if it's there verbally can we just clarify the motion now and reimburse them i mean it is on record because it's after the fact it's past the event so it's moving forward you have to be very specific uh what the amount is what line item the amount's coming from just for
the record or whatever amount's coming out of the committee budget so nobody's getting punished so yeah yeah exactly absolutely so then so now we know and i'm learning as well with this process it won't happen yet no so so that's that
okay moving on to the next item the 3054 police magnets so that you know both um darwin and mr pñena we we took a vote last time to purchase of,000 items uh so i know that town management was waiting
for the minutes yes so we did the transfer of the we had to transfer $300 from last time you all motioned for that so finance just let me know that that happened so i in the process of doing the invoice right now to cut the check for excellent so it's approved it's
approved yeah so that's the transfers went through and everything's good on that sounded right the next item is for mr torres this is your item sir uh 7c you can stop them when you and i are here
about so there anything update on this said that she did change the setting she's supposed to clear so i don't know okay you were able i did i did notice that now i can post okay all the good stuff it should be close i just wanted to make
sure that but i did make sure that i a few of those post i was able to right away put it on my shoulder so thank you you made a difference no problem no problem yeah yeah good so for for the for the we're
going to have to get mr pñena and mr lewis to get on instagram this guy's a pro over here this guy does live sessions and everything but we we you know you can now if the town does something you can now send it to your network which is really neat okay so that's mr there's a touris initiative we
got accomplished so good for good for you sir okay the next item um ny's not here i i would have loved for her to be here but we can always rematch it the the event was wonderful uh the public affairs committee was very responsive
okay okay so what we did is and and and you know what let me let me talk about it for a brief moment so that we know again things that i'm learning okay that you know i need to get we all need to i guess uh take notes on citizens prime watch their location is way down south i
want to say by like cutler bay or something though right so when he uh agreed to do the texting and the phone call scamming u presentation he was like "hey this is normally an hour." i approached the elderly affairs
committee on behalf of psc and they said "look we could you can only do 15 minutes okay because we have to have four rounds of bingo if not you're gonna have some angry elderly people and we don't want that." so then what ended up happening is joe came down or came up he was like "look
normally i would never do this okay i'm not going to drive an hour for a 15-minute presentation but i didn't want to you know leave you hanging so i came let me tell you they loved his presentation and they were all over it they were you know they were totally in tune to it he brought a bunch of stuff
again things that i didn't think i didn't know he brings all his like these wallets that have the magnetic so you can't scan the credit card oh yeah which was really neat pens a bunch of little stuff they they loved it i mean yeah yeah so then he he said "look let's
come back." the other official that come like hey yeah let's do something later on where he can do the full presentation um and uh you know we did obviously all the propaganda for social media took pictures of him so we put it on this on this platform it was great that's an awesome resource thank you deputy amador
that's not here but he brought them and that guy is clutch for us anything that we can think of that you hear on the street from residents and you want to push that initiative let's talk about it let's see how we can partner with another committee i i think we do that a
little too much that we don't use our other committees to kind of partner on things uh so i'm definitely going to be uh doing something in the future now what's happening is uh so that you know i don't know if i want to skip myself here i might be is right on the on the calendar here on the
agenda the uh yes it is i don't want i don't want to jump ahead 8 so let me just we'll talk about 8b later on uh but nonetheless the other thing that you all should consider as well those that paper that was put on the table here was it's
for the next copy of a cow we got to make sure that there's a uh elderly affairs uh event coming up for movie night or movie date or something we got to make sure that the elderly affair folks you know get get that hand out
that flyer so just starting to think of things in the future of these different things we're doing and how we get to our audience yeah because nancy is a member of so she could just right we in fact you know what when she leaves today we have to give her that title so she can take it with her all right so um so okay
so yes it was great in the future again we'll have to figure something out in the future how we can you know back with the other affairs okay now on to the um the next conversation so
i got you okay so before i move on let the record show that nancy is here ny's here okay nancy you know what you've been recognized how was the event with uh citizens crime watch at the eloh bingo event it was
good was super good i think people were very responsive they liked it well they were a lot of them are a bit unaware so they learned a lot of things you know they they realize you kind of look them up
so and what we were saying is that i know that that movie uh event is coming up here's your homework those are all yours you were nominated a wait a minute a movie event yeah you have if it's on a bus i don't go but i will still go to
hand these out okay thank you i do don't do buses okay two in two weeks i think you have i think it's the sec it's the first or second week of may i want to say um is the next uh event for elderly affairs so i didn't need to have
tonight's meeting in no you're fine okay while she checks that i want to recognize bless us with with her present anything you want to say i skip you probably oh there he is
i'm good thank you all right you say it's what day the the movie uh event i want to say is isabella's gonna check how about that but i want to say it's like a first or second well is a bingo on may 8th i don't know
if nothing bingo isn't there isn't there a meeting a bingo on may eight yeah so the bingo is may eight but they don't have a they don't have a um a movie day or something i would know i don't know okay fine so we'll just make sure that we got
everything lined up for for for nancy before she she goes so she can hand it out deputy amador you've been recognized sir thank you for for joining us thank you happy to be here yeah do uh do you want to report the numbers or we want to push it to the next meeting i have the
numbers oh you do traffic was the problem not the numbers okay so homicides uh year to date we're still at zero thank god um robberies we had three last year we're at two this
year so we're down by one um auto fest we were at 29 we're at 14 so that's good huge difference very nice um commercial burglaries we had two we're at zero and
residential we had three we're at one everything's down so and i the major was saying uh at the last uh council meeting that the lowest we've we've ever been um at this point was crimes in the
town but the the whole thing is uh you know like you said when you have low numbers like this that's that's a scary thing and with um the uh psa the 305 million
psa they're going to go up because the attempted burglaries to the vehicles uh even the attempt is counted as a burglary oh okay and now people are calling more
because they're saying "yeah you know let me try to open the door." that's an attempt that's already counting as a burglary right now something that you've said now uh let's let's talk about really quick 3054 police there's people that are very
happy with it and they never heard of it and they're super supportive there's other people that are upset because they call and they stay on hold okay if you call if someone if someone calls at a busy time like the major and i we spoke and also amidor as well you're going to hit the back of the line if you if you
are number two in line and you've got five 911 calls they jump into the into the old guest pattern guess what now you're number six so if someone has a real emergency they need to just hang up and call 91 do they understand that's a non-emergency number yeah that's what i
was going to ask they're two separate things yeah so what the heck did you call in the wrong number for that's what you first thing is you got to tell them you're all in the wrong number then maybe that'll stick in their head but but i think in the magnets we ordered it says something to the effect of non-emergency right there's something
that's correct but but still i mean people you know how it is people want immediate answers and what i tell people it's it's it's interesting because something happened to me uh recently which i just i shared with the group i know some of you guys saw it where i had a kid that ran to my front door and knocked i thought somebody was going to
throw up a bat and ran i caught the kid and thanks to my wife because i'm half blind and um the kid was a 12-year-old kid i did it with his cousin and i called the non-emergency number guess what happened i was on hold for 4 minutes so i said
"should i call a unit?" i mean it was a busy night it was i think it was friday at 7:00 or something like that so i said "should i call 911 is it really a 911 call?" i didn't i ended up going and speaking to his parents and told his parents what happened hopefully the kid won't do it again but what's really
important about the situation is that i spread it with our neighbors you know hey this is happening hopefully it doesn't happen to you you know uh make make sure you keep your doors locked you know if someone has you know i don't know sensitive you know anxiety i mean
situations can turn pretty pretty bad an elderly person exactly get scared and the kid was wearing a mask worst of all besides okay so he's wearing a mask over his face not good did he say why why because they they thought it was fun that it was fun to not were the parents
receptive cuz those parents not my kid yeah the parent was pretty receptive not that i would be like or anybody on this committee but you know i said "you don't understand we live in florida okay we don't have to have a weapon concealed license anybody's carrying a gun your
kids need to shop 12 years old if you continue to do this and and you know hopefully she was receptive towards that but one thing escalates to something else in this case that's scary on so many levels you call if um it happened
and you want to call and report it 35 for the police you caught him 911 oh really i mean and it was a human up so it's you know but you caught him 911 because now you have you know like possible subject in custody and you're
holding on to them you know right and that would have been this past uh as an emergency okay so that's that's the biggest thing that we have as a committee is is our voice so right there this example happened to me now we just spread it to our neighbors you know
something ever happens like this now you know what you got to do now granted i didn't keep i didn't put my hands up when i said that i just grabbed i i caught him i was like "hey." you know uh but nonetheless it was it was a lesson but even but that can escalate because the parents drive by they see you addressing their kids or something now
they get involved and it could yeah if they're not receptive why you stopping my kid you know absolutely they think that you're yeah yeah i did have it on video and i share with the group so you all can see it yes because this involves kids it
really affects me and i feel like this is something needs to be discussed more than at this meeting and i feel like maybe we should contact what's your face from the miami laker and just say this
is what's happening uh just as a warning to parents and this object being thrown at their whatever it is don't open your door you don't know if it's a kid or not this is some kind of advice of what's
happening because people want to hear what this committee is doing they're already complaining that you know we're not doing enough type of thing do you think it's worth a psa uh uh sure there's another event for you to film and and
show what your spec what happened to you and you be the the homeowner because i think there's a lot of kids what do they call it knocking and dashing or something whatever i think it there's i think i think the first i'm hearing that
this is happening here in miami i think it's going it's going to spread that's been happening for the past three or four years in miami lakes yeah really by my by my neighborhood stand there when the kids are like in spring break or in
the summer rooms not every day thing but we do get cases like where i live like two and a half years ago like around 11:00 was they open the door really hard and when i went and checked they the ring there was two kids doing the same
thing they knocked and they just and it's been kind of in the apartment buildings too so but like you guys said the the problem here is i saw it so yeah whatever but it was let's say for example somebody with a gun at that time
or anytime those kid and something get escalated oh yeah yeah oh you're a guy with a mask i mean the home invasion yeah it's pretty scary you know so but yeah i think to to ny's point i mean there's definitely it could definitely there's something in the agenda that
we're discussing which is item 8a which is locket uh lock lock it load maybe we can tie it into that i i would like to so we can discuss it on 8a i'd like to make a motion that we discuss it and put it on the agenda somewhere tonight and
the first thing i would like to make a comment on is what did it cost us to do the the video that you guys did 500 so if we have $500 in the agenda i would like that added
to not agenda but you know what i mean if we have $500 i would like to make a suggestion when we get to that add the agenda that we do a video of this incident this type of incident that's going on so people
can see what we're talking about they're just going to think somebody's knocking on the door and running or ringing the bell and running or whatever they need to see the seriousness and bring it to the seriousness bring it to the next level where the kid is maybe being us uh
beaten up by a homeowner or whatever however we'll talk about that if we can add it to the agenda let's let's right now we're going to reopen the addition deferrals line item so i'm going to make a motion and nancy can second it do you second that motion to open up the
additions i think you have to open up the additions and then add it okay item three right so i'm going to i'm going to reopen that carlos and nancy carlos okay so i'm making a motion she's in a second um we're reopening additions to the agenda um all in favor say i i any
against say no okay so we're reopening it now nancy is making a motion to add u to 8f um i guess knocking and ditching yeah that's what it is okay so af knocking and ditching okay
all right i'll go ahead and second ny's motion all in favor i any against so that that motion was made then added 8 okay our next item which is this is a pretty important thank you so
the car show all right so before i get into the car show yes sir where are i have a bunch of info i got a bunch of info not a bunch of info but i got some info okay i spoke to oscar okay um funny enough they had just had a partial
ind the same day of the um of the easter saturday at night in uh at the mall at the vivo area okay and he was in charge of that so wonderful he's very well versed on on what needs to be done you
know and all information so i told him that uh i will be giving you the his information so you guys can talk um he um he would love to come to to the next meeting okay awesome you're the man i would i would like to recognize if so
you're good with that that's what you want to say i would love to have darwin talk about the event that we just went to last week riverfest yes what part the whole event so basically the riverfest i mean that's been i think
it's it's going well over 50 years and what they do is the riverfest meaning the river cities meaning it's consist of min springs virginia gardens medley um and hy actually so once a year they have this event and in addition to that they
have whoever went to miami springs senior it's like every year regardless of the year that you graduated they have that you know that uh like a high school reunion um unfortunately this year it was cut one day short it's typically friday saturday sunday it was just
friday and saturday um and it's always i mean it's always a hit i mean they had the car show obviously that was nice that drew a pretty decent crowd um safe great family event so who would obviously be deer and
well i i really it was really good that i ran into darwin because that event it totally threw me on on a sideline related to our event because it it made me realize like what they're doing obviously they've been around for a long time they know what they're doing but a
few things came to mind and and the one thing was time it was it was a hit that was actually at there was people really enjoying themselves the other thing was location you know which that location is is prime the way they have it because it's miami springs circle that place is you know
monumental around that place and um you know so i went ahead and i said to myself well you know let me bring it back to the committee and and talk to you all about it and right now what we've done is mr pñena and i met with
agm at energy menz university they've agreed to do it there but going to that event i was like "hold on a second." you know i i think me personally this is my opinion missing the boat because energy manage university is kind of like away
in tucked away in a side of town and i said "okay main street is is our main location." now we don't want to duplicate what cars for cure does because what cars for cure does it's funny not because i want to copy them just because it's actually to me it it's
very tight very tight and almost it keeps people in in constraint they cannot leave until the whole show ends so like for example i'm there for eight hours when i so i started looking around main street and uh funny enough my
brother-in-law which actually worked for the grants for many many years he's like "hey have you ever looked at this location it's actually really nice and lit up at night." and i said "oh really i haven't never really looked at it." and um this location is is actually it's kind of hard to see from here from where you guys are sitting but this is a
parking lot those of you that volunteer for the veterans parade which i know lewis volunteers nancy volunteers is a really nice lit up and open parking lot that might you know my thought process was well hold on a
second if we do the show there uh the committee obviously you don't just have a car show you got main street right so you have people that are going to go and and visit our our local businesses you know you have a lot of you know different
restaurants there um i don't know if if it if it takes away the requirement of having a bathroom because now like for example for the cars procure they don't have a bathroom they use drew's hotel or whoever else for the bathrooms so you know i just wanted to
to talk to you all about this location if there is any other location would you guys want to talk about it um you know i' i've beat this up i've gone like back and forth in my truck trying to like really figure out you know i look for that vibe you know that vibe that as a
town they say "wow you know these guys did at the right location." this is the location where you have the registration for the veterans parade it's hanging down yeah i think there's like and all that yeah you see that building right there it's like in front of park right across
from you i see it now um and metal yes yeah that's a good location so right so that you know obviously like and again i'm learning to isabelle when schooling me and stuff like obviously you know if you guys are like this idea or you want
to talk about any idea i need to get approval from you all to take the next steps to then talk to the grams okay because funny enough i had no idea that angie lens is the grams anyways so it's like i'm dealing we met and it was a nice meeting that lady was great that
lady was great and i love their support for the town but if this is what you guys want to do then you know but i before i even talk about anything else with the car show i want to really talk about this location and get your get everyone's feedback as far as the bathrooms people are going to want to
wander main street let them use the bathrooms at the restaurants and the hotel so we don't have to worry too yeah yeah we don't have to worry about getting porta parties or nothing like that i totally agree with it yeah and then one thing i would look into which i don't know how paris does it is the
liquor part because i was at the beer tent serving beer for all those hours and i don't know i guess since they were sample maybe you don't need a liquor license because it was smaller cups yeah i so i don't know it's funny because when i was at river city's event what
they had and i was like man this is great i think actually you were talking about they had a a humidifier portable humidifier awesome place set up oh yeah that'll drop amazing you know so i was thinking that my neighbor is actually the one that has the the trailer with
the beers oh okay so he he would know yeah i think it might have something to do with the size of the cups he's there to be at least 21 no yeah yeah yeah but i mean as far as like having a liquor license for us to dispense or well the thing is the thing
is regardless of because you're selling it you you have well they bought it before you buy a pack that because there's liquor involved you need to have a license you know regardless so i don't know how does it what was what was the group
that had this liquor yeah you can get the same company saying "no the thing is there were different beer companies and they got we are a town committee." when we want to do it now it's a town
event and the town might say "no we're not." yeah because if somebody gets drunk and they crash so forget forget liquor think like you work upstairs let me tell
you a question i'm sorry the good thing about the liquor is that according to the fourth of july event they serve liquor oh they do they do that's a town event and that's a town event and they're and they're looking at doing
that to bore events because it just so happens that they do it at that event but they're looking at doing events wow i didn't know yes serve liquor from a from a food truck or you know water the whole idea of what that what that event brought my attention to is that people were there as a date night with their
families and it brought the crowd more right because it's like okay now this is saturday night and we're here to celebrate the police and the fire you know you know so it's all-encompassing kind of like a you know it's funny because i love that idea called a
festival but i was like steal it you know so you can do an early evening time instead of during the day when it's hot that's late afternoon early evening but again that this is where you know and just so i'm going to give you full full
you know disclosure at first what i was thinking is well hold on a second you have the uh vendors the market that comes out every saturday so i was like "oh maybe that street i don't know what that street is very dark you know and that street for
whatever reason is is like it's not clean you know there's like leaves and kind of everything." well hold on a second what about we do that street to have all the vendors like oscar and any other folks that want to come with their um what is it called food trucks right and then that parking lot right there
would be the cars though but again it's kind of dark it's not very uplifting so i think before we talk anything about vendors let's just make sure that we we are have a consensus about the location i'm opening it up for conversation here
and chime in about the time and expanding heritage month event on the same day october 4th so you don't want to overlap with them because council members are going to be there mayor's going to be there most likely you know they can't be in two places at once and we don't really like many
events overlapping what's going on that day too the hispanic heritage month which is which is at noon which is from 6:00 to 9 so if you're thinking later in the day 6 to 199 what is october when you turn your head that
way i can't hear you what is the other event hispanic heritage the event hispanic heritage but but four times but i will say that i was actually at i wasor he's my witness that there was actually a event that i went
to when there was two events so there was an autism event which was great and then they had also a memorial event for those that served in vietnam non commemoration so it does happen it does happen that was a different organization that threw it wasn't a committee event
the vietnam commemor commemoration event on the neighborhood vibr event so yes there's events that happen on the same day it happens but we don't suggest that we're a small town and people again can't be in two places at once so if they want to spend all your time at the car show and be at the
hispanic heritage month you know right so i mean right now in the calendar you're scheduled for 8 to 2 that was kind of intense time you were all discussing so i just want to warn you there's an event later in the day there's a lot of attendance usually they
do it every year so just something to keep in mind yeah i think that what we should do is you know um i think we should move forward with the date and time and i mean unless i don't the thing here's the here's the
issue go ahead are we locked into that date the thing is that day that month is tricky because what you have that month is you have a event that happens at uh at miami for cops and firefighters as well
i want to say that's the following weekend oh yeah that's how we determine if they already announced the date at travel park yeah what's the name of the event that that event heroes something heroes hometown heroes hometown yeah that's why we settled on the seventh because there was stuff going around yeah
[Music] and not for anything but you know i mean hispanic heritage month is for a whole month so i don't know if they've uh confirmed that like i mean can they move it is there any flexibility cuz you know they had this before the car show so
they had that date scheduled already that's a dinner what's that's the dinner what it's a heritage they have like food they're celebrating peru last year was argentina and where do they do that they do at roberto alonzo community center that we're able to explain i think for
for for the sake of the meeting with timing let's just we'll talk about the the date uh you know later on the meeting or we can talk about it next meeting but right now i think we should really concentrate on details of this event to make sure that we can move it along because there's a lot on the
agenda and then we can always look around to see there's an alternative date okay so i guess how are we feeling about the location good you all like that you want you want to explore an alternative location um
depends on the date perhaps because if there's other stuff going on even if it's smaller or whatever maybe maybe pick a date an alternative this way it's already on the record we'll take either
one when the town has to start being involved in making appointments and we have to do any of that i would i would pick a date and an alternative date this way you got both covered now and you go
from there but the issue is that i don't want to waste time on the committee on the dates because it actually takes a lot of research i got to figure out when that event hometown heroes is i got to go back on the calendar that's what i'm you might we might pick a date and then the next thing you know you come back with "oh no something's happening now
let's have it all something else for you to pick." well let him do the research and then when he when he comes with all the dates for all the other stuff then we'll have something to more to lock in yeah but look but last year long time hero was on the 19th and the year before
was on the 20th so if we go by that it should be that same weekend and it should be october either it should be the october the 18th the 18th that is a saturday so that gave us the 11 if there's nothing there that we can
put as a tentative for for our event and it doesn't it always falls on yeah 11 is novenue and here's another thing i don't know if we discussed it at the meeting it's going to be the middle of the football season if the hurricanes are playing at
home are they released already no they release it now but i mean i'm just saying a lot of people watch football and that might keep people in front of the tv for the day or the evening yeah but you see keep that sunday well you're going to have that right because
[Music] yeah no offense so uh town management october 11th is there something on the calendar right now for october 11th right now there is not
the 25th is youth activities the halloween why don't we pick a date tonight 11 that's a saturday saturday and i think that was the first day that we originally kind of pinpoint and then because we didn't know about the other
one but i'm looking at the other one it has been the third weekend of october so i'm thinking that they're going to stick to that i don't see why they should jump to the 11 all right which book is that hometown heroes okay tropical park the big celebration know what committee is
is involved no no no that's another okay it's a whole separate that's miami that's miami okay yeah i mean so we could tend to tend to to be put right but remember that's that's typically during the daytime than hometown heroes that's not i mean technically have you gone to that
event aidor yeah is there a lot of miami lakers that go um so i i'll say this last year i was there and at the time of the parade i was in the parade you see the car says kind of miami lakes and um a lot of
people i assume they're from miami lakes and they were screaming so loudly a ton of people were i mean the that i saw people that i knew you know from the tower so i just people were screaming at me right they were screaming at me no
we hate you know that all right so let for now i don't to make the secretary's job easier we're not going to make a motion just on the dates let's do everything together as one motion but we'll change it right now for the 11th for now um just in case we'll do well
the hispanic heritage month is a death on the 4th they always have it every year i can like check on the date but that's what they had it before you all scheduled the car show so i'm really certain they're 11 in case something comes up we
might have to sign okay so so you want to do a motion to make it official let's let's discuss the other details to make sure like so for example it's october 11th so we have a motion technically we're supposed to have a motion before we talk about it so we have a motion me and don't second that's to open to
discuss so technically that now the the next thing is timing do we want to stick to uh an evening event 5 to 9 5 to 9 to 9 can we just do 3 to 8 say it again
38 i i will tell you if you would have gone to the rivers event you would have seen how good it is 5 to 9 and again this is a discussion this is where we all have to talk about it 5 to nine if you're thinking and the reason why i'm saying 5 to nine is a
weather yes it'll be cooler that's what i'm saying and people get out at night not during that time one extra hour 5 to 10 that's even better but remember you're always going to you know come on make us five they're going
to show up at six or we do four to nine because you're not going to see 10 anyways it's four oh four to 10 yeah four to 10 i like okay you know it's funny because the one we went to was right it was till 9 but
guess what everybody was there they yeah yeah 4 to 10 you guys are discussing oh it's on october 11th 49 yes 49 410 if you want to keep it to say people say "oh wow what about me?" main street is
busy busy yeah okay fine 410 4 to 10 okay 4 to 10 now so we talked about we talked about time we talked about date now let's talk about the location are you all okay with that location do you want to explore any other locations
i think we should stick with that you have i don't think we have time to smoke and that's good okay if we find something better next location that's our first year yeah yeah 15500 new road that's the location
new barn oh you you said 15500 new barn yeah you're gonna get a i'm gonna ask something out next okay now i'm not very creative i just asked my my my wife and my brother-in-law for ideas because they are very creative obviously
it's up to this committee but they came up with a pretty cool name uh cars for heroes if you want to bring it up uh any other ideas maybe that you guys have in mind of no that guy that kind of goes straight to the point yeah pretty
much what do you think i like it and then you look at the p or one of those for slogan no for
um donations or like if if you charge uh i don't know $5 per car then going to go to the p for fallen or families you know stuff like that yeah like the toys for tops you know for that so this is going
to one of these organizations for all right so now that's that's the perfect segue uh for the the sponsorship package okay now the reason why i'm saying that's a perfect segue is
because the title was gracious enough was gracious enough to me an example of what a sponsorship looks like okay this is an example from another committee of what a sponsorship looks
like now this is sponsorship for companies if they're interested in coming to the event and we have to kind of tie this into what amador just said right so obviously these this is something this is a draft for you all to
review and comment on um obviously you see stuff that i highlighted that we just discussed and thought it was a good idea and i came up with different ideas now what ends up happening is there's a few things that i want to state for the
record for all of us to consider number one the the event is going to cost money right so if we get sponsors that would be great if we don't get sponsors which i already have people that are interested in sponsoring i've already talked to miami lakes auto mall they're
interested uh game day miami lakes um i don't know if andrew men is end up doing anything now there i don't know um but i'm sure that if i talk to more people they would be uh they would be interested in in in doing it now the the
whole idea is that no i'll text you now i'll text you after yes thank you for i'll send yeah i'll send to you after that the whole thing is that you know you have this is just sponsorship we
have our um where our budget that i do think we need to like the breakfast thing needs to be chopped and we need to allocate you know my position to this event that money and then if we're going to charge at the at
the at the at the door right for cars to come in and do the event now if we do something to like fallen uh police officers we got to do it for firefighters as well so anything we get we got to spit it you know yes sir just just in case worst case scenario we
don't get sponsors or packages can our budget absorb this whole event well right now i that's where i need the help of you know of you all i've gotten some numbers i just have to call them uh but i mean here's the thing i don't
think um i don't i don't think that for someone showing up like food truck wise i don't think we pay for that those guys come they set up whatever they sell they sell they don't pay for a spot we can we can put that i know isabella was saying that right it depends on the event like
the fourth of july event that's bigger they pay a larger amount to be there whereas a park event they might pay i don't know like 20 30 bucks it depends on the size of the event this is the first time you're doing it so you have to that i'll probably account right because it's the first time around you don't want to charge too much if you
want to charge at all how much do they charge at the bigger events $25 you say or no i think um july might be a hundred or yeah it's 20 so we could do like 25 bucks it's the first one
yeah and and they're going to come because they're going to probably sell more than $45 $50 you cut it in half yeah dna because you tell them you know what i mean if you're joe blow with a profit right and you paid $100
if you do that they're going to they're going to they're going to make the $50 in the first hour yeah.$50 they're going to do it in the first hour yeah so so to kind of to to go ahead and take it one uh thing at a time to keep it
organized i guess let's talk about the sponsorship package the i know for like parts recured i had a friend that sponsored for cars recur i mean i wouldn't even say the amount how much it was to keep it confidential but nonetheless he got to put his car where
he went right so that's why i put here that if you're a gold sponsor you get three parking spots that's a prime spot obviously um if we if this location works out that would be something towards the middle where everybody can see that person's car if it's miami autoal guess guess
what they're going to have their new cars parked there so we can look at it you know help them out with the jeep sales so i guess to stick to one item how do you all feel about the packages what is included in the packages for the
record i totally copied what is i just changed the first line item from vehicles yes ma'am this is our first rodeo yes ma'am let's don't make it complicated and we got to sit here and
figure out which are the prime spaces and let's just leave it wherever you know signs up can pick the best spot and leave it at that don't make it all on us and like i said it's our first
time um it's going to be too complicated saying "well you pay so much and you get this spot and somebody else is gee i didn't know about that." it's just going to cause more headache in my opinion well here's here's the idea unless somebody else has done that in the past
and we can no they have so for example the cars for cure you know the spot that i got last time was a prime spot it was a home montalito and um i couldn't park there this year because sometime he bought it they sponsored the event so a
friend of mine had parked his corvette there another friend of mine parked you know in front of then where did you get relegated to i i got next to where uh sam goody used to be because that's what i recognized as and you paid less money or the same i paid the flat fee to enter which was $25
yeah i think it's it's you know it's a lot it's a lot unless you know enough and have spoken to enough people to know here's the guidelines do it this way and you won't have you know what i mean if we're we're
we're so new at this but here i don't understand the the issue what's the discussion charging different amounts of money different location we're not char we're not charging different amount of money to different cars what we do when it's sponsored this
is a sponsor so if if i have my company and i want to sponsor the event uh depending on which package i'm going to get is the the stand now okay so that's it's not like it's not like no nobody knows who he is wants his card
here i'm going to charge him 50 for here and then this one i'm going to charge him 25 this is for the sponsor so if you get a sponsorship the the top tier you get three cards and you we decide based on that okay you go here here and here but if you're a regular person okay you
pay the 25 unfortunately you're number 10 on the list so your spot is going to be right there spot's already been identified or is that going to be our job i'm just saying it's everything's our job oh there you go everything's our everything's our job and that's why we need that's why we're
here i mean look we have new you know we gota we got to figure it out we got to figure it out you know so i mean again to to let's not worry about the parking spaces right now let's just talk about this it makes sense to base i get 700
yeah you get three spot if you get 400 you get one spot and then if you're a regular vendor all you want to do is just bring your pen in your table yeah that's $100 okay you here you go to your spot you you promote your business if you want to give away goodies that's up
to you if you don't want to give up goodies and you want to give material that's up to you okay why not uh why not 350 for the silver let's do it yeah that makes sense yeah and then the other one could be half of the 300 150
yeah 125 no no if you go 300 oh cuz 350 you're doing 350 okay yeah yeah i thought you were doing 300 you see where i'm going on 35 silver sponsor is going to be 350 350 and then the other one's going to be uh 175
125 125 that 350 is 125 right no no 175 175 you're correcting the account is i'm not going to well if it works out in your yeah but the whole idea you know i will tell
you i think i don't know now that i come to think about it maybe just keep just think about it if you keep it at 100 i say keep it it's more attractive be like "oh my god it's more attractive." so 100 300 and 700 i'm sorry 100 350 and 700 100 i'm telling you you're going to have
a lot of businesses because i'm going to push them to the bni folks too right all right so now the whole idea is you have this in mind i know it's kind of hard because we're not there we should have media department first row against the building cars right and then cars
probably lined up facing each other second row is people that do exhibits right so these are going to be the people that maybe want to put a tent because they're exhibiting their whatever it is like a friend of mine does a car he's a car broker you might
want his tent there in the middle along with everybody else i don't know how this is going to work with the farmers market if they're going to want to join the party i don't know if it's a lot of work for them to set up again because they're going to be in in the other place where they usually set up on saturdays i don't know if they're going to want to walk over and set up and the
third row is going to be all the cart all the all the food trucks right so you have their i mean i have already some people that do like pork and stuff that they want to come and set up you know so the whole idea is
that okay so hold on a second let me keep it organized we're okay with this 700 350 100 everything's okay with this right now before i move on to the to the food trucks and what we charge for them or if we we don't charge
anything the town needed this bought from us for next month because they meet with which there's no date yet but they do meet with memorial memorial sponsorship sponsors a lot of our events so now if this is done we can give it to say hey this is the event if you want if
you want to join right so i'm really glad that we're having this conversation and we got to now let's talk about the food trucks i don't know if you guys want to charge the food trucks we can but if you don't want to charge them i'm fine with that too i mean the only thing is that
we got to put a cap i don't know i mean at some point that parking lot can hold 100 food trucks if it's all first come first serve worry about money but and and and location and all that stuff i know it's i get that but the thing is we
should have a head counts okay we're going to get 20 spot in the first 20 that's it but i think we should i think we should put it by category in other words we don't have we don't want two burden list right correct no no i get that right but just keep that in mind i think like for example if we're going to
do the third road is going to be hooked we gota actually go there and based on the logistic okay how big are these trucks we can determine okay so in this area we can fit 15 p 15 so whoever the first 15 comes in but then same thing
like you just said we cannot have three pizza places all next to each other or four burgers or whatever the case may be so if let's say for example there's a burger place and then the next day another burger place yeah as they come
in you keep a list we will cover with a burger mexican perfectanga whatever you know different pizza whatever but then when we get to the 15 that's it nothing else unless we don't make 15 then you open it and maybe get like another yeah and by the way and who's going to be the person that's
going to be in charge of that one of our committee members yeah we are we are divide and conquer okay and i think somebody knows i think you're right the 25 bucks i think is more than reasonable and they don't they'll come in and it's the first time
like remember like if we we do fit 25 they're not gonna say oh no no because they are going to more than that and and and if remember we tell them this is something that we're going to do every year so if you participate the first year and then next year we decide to
charge 100 because you participated the first year we're going to give you the the grandfather 50 instead of you and then you go depending how it it works but you let them know from the getgo look this is something that we're going to try to do every year the prices may
increase they will we'll let give them ahead of time once we get more established it might but because you hear them from the beginning we give you the returning vendor discount that's it i would i would tell
you guys to um when you talk to oscar to pick his brain on how they've done events because remember the these people have done all types of events so they they also have um things where like we can say listen you know if if
you're going to charge this amount but i can do this for you or you know uh instead of charging that let's do this and then i can get a a bowling truck you know things like that where you know things that we're not even talking about or thinking about right or know that
exist or the the gaming truck right because that's going to bring more kids and stuff like that and a great thing is that um since it's a company they have the insuranceances because that's been a problem with uh with with the park and
he already has all the insuranceances and all the permits and everything through that have been processed through the town already because he's he's doing so many events through the town he did he was part of the the east on saturday and he's the one that brought on the food trucks and all that so that's why
it's also before we jump in to see how we're gonna break our head trying to determine all that we can talk to him first and be like how you handle this what is the package that you offer and if he tells you no i'm not going to charge you guys anything because i i
deal with them right and but i'll take that pain away from you guys by all mean go ahead so a lot of problems we need an experienced person so to repeat what nancy is saying is she's saying who's going to handle is it a committee member
or the town there's too many rules and i'm not complaining i'm just saying if has anybody else in this room done this before and knows down the list what we have to do that's great yeah but i nominate that person but if
not then we need somebody who's experienced and i'm sorry i'm dumping it on your shoulders because we need guidance yeah yeah so we don't screw up and not i can talk to oscar but you're the committee can't speak for you right need to tell we already got the person's
information that he does that thing for the time that's perfect so all we need to do is relay the information listen this is what we want can you go ahead and take this pain away from us and then he tell me yes john we can do all that for you guys and all i'm going to tell you is they're going to be there at this
time and they're going to leave at this time that's all you're going to hear about you know somebody else with everything else but also too like you know apart from oscar remember we talked about the beer we talked about the cigars all that stuff don't don't
oscar contact that guy know about i already have twitter so so that's the thing if you already got people that that can actually do that for you then talk to them okay i just want to show up there and everything is in place
oscar to handle that and that's it no and and there's been events where oscar their their company's called family food trucks they've had 90% of it and then but there's a a food truck that the times always used and then those two food trucks came out
not with their right uh company but but they were there too yeah and then he handled 90% of the situation and those two food trucks were also there and obviously he's fine with it because you're setting the i'm sorry the committee is setting the the ground rules of what you already own right and
and the whole thing is like for example vicky bakery did parts for cure i was like well i didn't even know you guys yeah yeah that's our new franchise we have it now too that's a cool thing too that you know people don't think about you know even like for example like uh chef uh frankie the one that does mayor's cafe he was at um the the
farmers market this week that's probably somebody that wants to he went too so what oscar doesn't have there's going to be other people that doesn't have it just because we have him but that's that's what i'm talking about but when it comes to stuff like that he already know how to do oscar know
so i'm pretty sure frankie and ricky they already know oh all we need to do is you know provide this information and we're there right so that's what we need to get those type of people that we can tell them okay i need this amount of food truck and you get them here i don't
want repeat vendors i just want option for the people going to be here and know i just want to show up and have them there because we have a whole bunch of other stuff to deal with where the cars are going where everything else fire trucks we have going to bring their
armored vehicles if we if we can delegate this to somebody that can do it for us and we don't have to worry about it that's the best thing to do he's like the general contractor he's like takes care of but it's true but it's true if you have somebody that can go ahead and do everything for you why you going to
go ahead doing that so is it just him and no there's other people as we're talking about yeah but they already mentioned somebody and i missed that name well i think we need to like let's just do this to keep the meeting going let's just next meeting let's dive into that specific because every single meeting we're going to have to bring up yeah who's going to be in charge of what
is basically yeah so next thing we got to we got to dial in more into this okay so now the we talked about pretty much everything here the one thing that before we close this item is deputy aidor i know i sent the request through for headquarters i mean
is that already been submitted to the to the gatekeeper or for the record this is i sent an email like "hey can we get swap vehicles?" you know any armored vehicles bomb vehicles anything what can you give us what can you give us so we give you
100 car we have we have historically and we have now there's two two different things um historically everything's been easier more streamlined guys we want this and this ah perfect basically every time is whatever you guys want you guys never
asked for anything you know uh bike rodeo whatever you want hate them all right now it's oh hold on we have all these problems not the town but the transition
no one knows what's going on that's really the no one knows what's happening so we get amidor and his and his squad card that's it we have an actual my personal card can we have one that's armored
yeah so now do we so then i guess in your case i guess you submitted that yeah and the thing is is getting a response has been the problem we have a mental health workshop scheduled for a few weeks from now and we still haven't gotten 100% that our people are going to
come out for that okay and and it's a few you know few weeks longer so in other words we'll keep following up so now as far as lieutenants over here i guess you're handling fire yeah yeah fire okay you want to set the fire not
who are you okay so then now mr secretary i apologize in advance here's the motion the motion is for ae and seconded by uh by darwin october 11th location is on that sheet
name of event is cars for heroes time is 4 to 10 sponsorship package has been given as presented you can put that in your minutes as presented and then the vendors pending let's do that let's let's do that pending okay but at least now we gota we have some pretty
important things that now are on the record email me that yes ma'am yes okay so all all in favor say i i any against none okay so let's just for the record ca and second uh darwin okay we're
moving on to uh next one very very important may national law enforcement appreciation month um unfortunately i felt really bad but john carlo had and the matter with his mom but i went ahead and presented to the council for them to uh light up the
the the town hall in blue i'm assuming they didn't talk about it but i'm assuming it's going to be worked on yeah i can follow up but it should be last year okay now very important i was able to approach her uh with the miami lakes
chamber to have a major vanzo speak at miami lakes chamber lunchon on may 14 is there anyone on this committee that would like to attend that way we can take a vote and make sure that your ticket is
i will you will what time of day is it 11:30 in the morning 2 yes anyone else 2 p.m you said no 11:30 oh 11:30 i yeah do i have to also like rs right there or i
just show up with you know here's the thing and isabell isabella is working on it right we don't know the number of people going yet for the town has a table that's designated for town officials if those folks you know end up not going guess what we now sit in that
table but i need to cover ourselves as a committee and vote on a dollar amount in case that table is fully reserved okay so to answer your question amador you're covered in whatever we vote for okay so that's the answer i have for you okay um
even though please take it and i'm sure we can do something um we take it out of our budget it's a reasonable what's what would be a reasonable amount so well here's where we're got an idea here's the math i'm a member so it's $45 per person okay so we have we have here
three people who else is going we have aador has four me lieutenant five is it working yeah i'm working okay lewis you want to go or no yeah you want to go to all right so we have uh johnny
you can he's a new dog yeah okay no no okay 1 2 3 4 5 six okay so there's a motion on the table for six individuals okay up to so now let's let me do the
math and you know what don't even put me in fine we'll do that 6 * 45 is $270 okay now this item again i am taking this motion to put a cap because
we might not even have to pay because if we have the table the table will give me the total one more time okay so it's a motion for six individuals up to $270 okay that's $45 a person times six is $270 so my motion yes ma'am before you
make this motion yes uh this would be coming out of the annual aware line item and there's no money in that yet so first you pass chair you have to allocate funds to that yes thank you all right so make a motion that we table that until we do the other vote we can
well this vote comes yeah we have to vote now we won't be able to get that's what i'm saying is is making a motion now to back up and go to what you you don't have it on the agenda right to do what she just said it's part of this
agenda it's on there it's on here just on the cover yeah it's on here so and that when we presented to council in in january we asked for chamber lunches $360 so i'm still a little confused why i
have to make a motion for this because i presented to the council i i will be honest however i'm going to follow the lead of town management and i'm making a motion to have in the aware line item uh $360 do i have a second oh okay we have a second from mr john carlo um all in
favor say i i okay so you threw me off you're you're just mentioning the total amount in that line item so they the finance department has created a new line item for us in our budget called aware which is awareness but right now i don't have a line i don't have a what
we're going to do for other campaigns but i know that for a fact when i presented to council when we presented to council i was a representative we asked for $360 in miami chamber lunch so now i just made a motion we all agreed $360 to that
line item so in the aware budget line item $360 from which line item from breakfast again or yes from breakfast yeah everything breakfast from breakfast line item yes sir yep that's 360 now that we have the money there i guess in
in theory now making a second motion this motion is for six individuals up to $270 for the miami lakes chamber lunchon event that's my motion do i have a second all right who second the first okay i'll second this one okay so now we
have uh ca and mr darwin uh for six individuals up to $270 all in favor say i i okay any oppose okay that takes care of that line item we will know for sure isabella supposed to contact us with what's happening that
day i think amador are you gonna get the i think you get the call right or the the vehicle i don't yeah it's over i'm hoping myself well the whole the reason why i'm saying this uh familiar is because the miami chamber lunchon events
is held at the uh ballroom at miami hotel so everybody kind of walks in to the um entrance way where there's like an overhang and when aidor mentioned hey i'll pick up the truck the car that's all wrapped for law enforcement i'm like oh that was pretty cool because now everybody that comes in is going to want
to take the picture in front of the car so i thought it would be nice publicity for the sheriff's office we're okay to park that car and leave it there it's there police [Laughter] okay continuing may 15 is coffee over
okay for the record we had an issue we had an issue with the with the location that we voted on last time or that night that we voted on that we suggested which was mayor's cafe because of its layout therefore i was lucky enough to have and get a hold of the einstein bagels
manager and it's going to be held at einstein bagels okay einstein bagel is bigger and more comfortable it's it's it's been painting in san diego it was approved by the sheriff's office
that was the reason they they cancelled because of no and we'll revisit the other location okay uh because one big thing was was was talked about is that at this point whatever for instance if i feel or you feel that the location is
too small too big uh whatever doesn't matter what matters is that the vendor says i want you here and and that's fine but that was the same situation because mayors wanted us there they wanted us there they were willing to do everything
right right i guess the real reason by space the space i know the real reason but let's go by space so so we're having it at einstein's you know anything you all can do to market the event uh you know please market it i think this one's going to be great i
mean um you know everyone's uh the major loves bagel so make sure that we get we get the major bagel so that's what's going on there on may 15 okay now something else that i'm learning um i was approached uh by tio
kasamayor uh someone that's you know gives a lot to the town that a company by the name of ccms wanted to sponsor a lunch for first responders this committee did not have a motion for that okay because it happened after our meeting so i went to to the
communications department they said "hey technically you can't do this because i said "no i know is there any way we can put it on this um you know internal meeting right they said well you know at the same time councilman sanchez was also approached about this lunch so
essentially what what's happening is councilman sanchez is kind of taking ownership of this event okay um because he was approached about the location if he can you know reserve town hall so we're kind of working with councilman
sanchez just to support the whole event okay and this is um ba on may 22nd at 1:00 p.m this is for people that have the shift at that point and uh you i we already got confirmation thanks to um
you know lieutenant darwin's uh his colleagues so the shift will be coming in from both station one and 64 will be visiting and then we have a shift that ends at 1:00 i think and starts at 3 or 1 that is going to be coming from the sheriff's office right
so that's may 22nd at 1 pm if anyone wants to show up and support you know you're more than welcome is this is there any way that we can are we like just supporting it we're not co-sponsoring anything because i'm thinking if we could jump in on this
then we could get rid of our breakfast and that's more money for the car show but because it was done after no yeah so we're not paying because the company is sponsoring one no i i get you i was just saying right here in town chambers
town chambers in town chambers so we're still we're still doing our own thing we're still doing our own thing food delivery i worked i mean they'll they'll tell you you know the sheriff's office i worked with so to coordinate this no no i'm just saying if if we could have jumped on this some way officially then it would have freed up all that money for
the collection yeah well i mean when you say no because the thing is what he's saying is if if we wagon comes to this event and kind of co- co-sponsor of the event we don't have to do our food
delivery oh on september i can i can i can tell you this much for this committee i when i was approached by tiko and by this company i did all that work of speaking to the fire and speaking to the sheriff's office so in their eyes we we
have to do this all right so it's one of those things where you know if you all want to come and you know wear your polo and support you can do that it in their eyes guess what we helped we helped and and and to a certain extent i think we we'll have to talk about it at a later
time but i think there's better uses me personally than that breakfast i think there's a lot of things going on that we're talking about that you know even the techn brought up a lot of really good ideas for things that are going on in the town that i think are probably better for us to invest our money so
who's who's putting on this this recklessly so this is a lunch okay this was a private company that approached is that ccms yeah okay oh yeah yeah so they so they're doing a thing for first responders they they they essentially well they essentially nancy they
essentially kind of approached us but i we i couldn't we as a committee couldn't do anything because i there was no motion on the table and it needed to be done beforehand um or best said timely for it to be confirmed so we had to bring in a councilman to for him to for
that to be his his item and we're kind of helping with the exact so okay all right perfect all right uh next item so okay lock it or lose a campaign okay
uh for the record and i'm going to stop there for a second it's it's 8:30 if anyone wants to defer anything and talk about it next meeting we can just because of timing so we can you know just keeping it out there um if you all
want to defer anything now i will say that the lock or losing campaign and you know what i think it's pretty important if you can just talk about like the incident that we just talked about with you know the crime that's been going on with the with the
cars um you're referring to leaving weapons in the vehicle or yeah and the fingerprinting and right right yes um one and two encourage your resident to um contact us if they have video where
um you could see that the individual doesn't have gloves on and we can maybe get some prints off of the vehicle for the most part most of these incidents are happening with um where the faces are covered and the um the gloves that kids are wearing
gloves so it's hard to um develop any leads so the only way we can is if anybody who does have some pretty decent video where they can see that some fingers touch uh touch the car um it's a detail it's you know it's um it would be
you know really really helpful uh the other element of it was encouraging how we can help to educate and encourage um residents to follow up uh follow through with um if they do report a crime and we do make an arrest uh to support them in
in continuing with the with the case um by answering whatever questions and you know making sure that they have all the information they need so that they can feel comfortable because we do have too many times where we all work from from my partners who first respond
to the scene um to my processing vehicles for well over an hour and then we make an arrest and i find out from the state attorney's office that i don't really want to do anything and that's yeah it's very frustrating and
the third i'm sorry no the third part was um some sort of campaign to encourage um residents to not leave their guns in the vehicles um these guns get stolen and they're
used in further courts and so i'd like to see if there's some if you all think that that would be worth the effort and how we could go about doing that no individual should be
leaving their gun in their car it just should not happen because that puts us at risk as well when we respond to a vehicle burglary now we're responding to an armed vehicle burglar someone who arrived on the scene without a weapon and now they have one um so and that h
that's been happening and vehicle left unlocked how you leave a gun in your car and your vehicle unlocked is um it's just not not working now so um i wanted to look into how you guys might help with encouraging a campaign for a
campaign for that i hope i can remember both things but one of them is um if a resident has some film of an incident across the street at
their neighbors or whatever not to be a negative nancy but i'm going to say it that's going to go to court perhaps based on their filming and the next thing you know there's going to be retaliation
if it comes out where that filming came from it has we we have to protect the person providing the evidence in some way whether it be anonymous or they submit it i i that's the only issue i
would be concerned with because that person arrested based on that film could have friends or whatever that come back and then there's retaliation and and i see a resident being reluctant to give up the film for that reason
number one and what was the last thing you talked about even guns even guns and vehicles oh leaving the guns in the car and everything there's another campaign for us if we just print up these babies and leave them wherever we have to leave them in the businesses or anything
that's real important that that that's a no-brainer just a quick question is there any way and you guys might do it already when you talk to the victims you let them know from jump street how important it is for them to stick through all the
way through prosecution i mean i don't know you guys might be telling them that if you don't maybe we could tell them so they don't waste your time you know but the thing is to to to the thing is first of all because they they want to make a scene that they
broke into the car and technically they didn't so it was they left the car open so it was i get that but technically the person didn't broke into the car so when i go to court the person don't want to deal with that so they just be like "oh
no no i'm not going to deal with that." so right away they got to let them go but but i know that they do tell them "look you got to go through the whole process because that way we can take care of them." but the person once they leave they be like "oh no i don't i'm not going to do anything." yeah no i i just wanted to know if they were pulled
from jump street just whether it makes a difference or not absolutely it's a great question a great point and i'm going to be looking into our angle for everything for all all the crime prevention that's why we work together because he works uh more in the
community aspect of it and i work with for my partners and and our police efforts so um definitely i'm working with my partners and with the officers because i i'm having roll calls with them as well
and i want to be sure that we are delivering a more effective message as well from our end at the beginning and so one of the things i was thinking was um if perhaps the committee wants to come up with just like a little a small card or you know something that has your
um committee information on it where it says it it's has some information that they might find helpful and supportive um and encouraging uh in their part in the criminal justice system as a victim um but yes uh i agree and we're going to
we do do that but perhaps we could find ways to be more effective in our messaging the problem is the the criminal defense part their job is for the victim to disappear right and they're very good at it they'll they'll extend
um court dates and they'll push him again so even victim initially on top of it they they get kind of discouraged too you know and then it really right it depends on on the severity of the crime so they took something from the car and they're like look you know what they just took
whatever and i don't want to deal with it no but what they what they don't understand is when when you deal with it like that these people are coming back if they know they're going to be dealt with severely they're not coming back to this area they're going to do it somewhere else correct it being the town is
smaller it's maybe hard to for individuals to understand that in this area we take things seriously but they certainly understand it county by county because when in our interviews with subjects they have made reference to oh no we don't do anything there because
there um prosecuting yes and something that that that i just remembered the the actual processing of a vehicle for instance the home is the home but the vehicle you can go to other districts and there might not be anybody that's
going to come out and process the vehicle here in the town they're going to process the vehicle every time so even that part if they they're made aware of that oh wow you know we'll go to that area because they're going to be more productive on on catching those
people yeah i i think what we need to do and it's something that i think neil and i kind of touched upon we need to make sure that the major speaks about some of these points at the miami chamber lunchon event and we need to make sure that when the coffee of the cop comes we
got to have conversations as well with people that are visiting um how important it is to follow through and and i and i do think that maybe we need to put our heads together with you know how do we want to market this is it something on you know uh the miami laker
that you know it gets put out as an article you know or you know block in the page for an advertisement it talks about lock it or lose it the guns in the car the you know like one of the things that ne and i were talking about is you know what what are the odds of you not reporting somebody and that person doing
it again i'm pretty sure it's pretty high yeah okay because i mean me personally i'm a victim neighbor handled my case you know i gave the guy boot uh you know what's it called boot camp or whatever yeah he's he's still i get the alert still today and that was in 2019 okay so i think that's something we
got to figure out how to get out the lock it or lose it and kind of tie this all in together and you know let's let's let's put our heads together i know last time i thought about you know doing the miami laker but let's figure it out yeah
detective mina let's worked on the um blue light campaign with the candles and all that and with it we had a little stand that we had the cards placed on remember and they mostly handled one
specific subject perhaps we can we're not going to fit it all on that same card again but the part about locket and the guns and uh showing up in court and following through i think that's an
important item to draw attention to as well as perhaps having the cards made up for that and we don't have to have the stands and the blue lights and all that but have cards printed up because you
know even myself working in the police department it never occurred to me that your witnesses weren't showing up and maybe back then they weren't afraid i don't know maybe that's why i didn't hear about it but nevertheless now we have a problem with witnesses and
victims not showing up for fear of any kind of um you know issue coming back at them so if we maybe made up some cards and made people especially the business people we hand them out to them or something and
make them aware heck i wasn't even thinking of it imagine a business person thinking if i don't get involved and don't go to court and oh it's only $1,000 they turn on you know what i'm saying that attitude i have to get involved the larus um card has a man on
it to go out and check your car and all that psa with that and then include don't leave keys in the car that's another one that they're leaving keys in the car don't leave guns any valuables and lock your part to include all that that would help yes um we were talking
about um the detective n was telling me about the importance of of trying to get these communities to like send a text so i went to newborn i spoke to the management and based off of that recommendation they did that they
started sending uh emails to their um um renters and they said they were going to text them at nine o'clock for a while that to lock it or lose it a picture of the actual car so that you know for for like for them it's a constant reminder for a while they're going to do it for a
while because they had a a breaking and one of the parts and it wasn't a breaking it was a car that was left people were just not aware well let's let's figure out next meeting for next meeting it's homework for all of us we gota we got to come up with a campaign okay whether that's putting something a
design like an actual like let's just say a flyer an image form that gets on instagram or maybe that gets printed or something that goes on the miami laker but something that's all-encompassing so let's figure out something that can kind of grab the attention of people and then keep this in mind because whoever is
going to go to the miami lakes lunchon and if the major does not bring it up bring it up as a question because there is we have cards ready by then there's going to be a q&a well if you want to have cards by then i don't know if the lock it or lose it campaign we can print it for for that event is that something
we have we have cards we have you have we have tons of cards well then let's bring it to the next camp to to the coffee with the cop and let's bring it let's bring it to the the launch and i give those out to everybody that comes in all the all the businesses out the great thing about it is that it's a
great campaign right the the the the card you know it just it's perfect like you don't have to like really yeah make you know like make you know add more too many changes like it's perfect gets a card if you have nice information on it has a reminder in the back 9:00 p.m
reminder well if the locker or lose it doesn't have the specifics about the more serious things now the card is being left unlocked because there's guns or this or that or whatever when you hand out the card saying "by the way this includes you know you're already so
you know that doesn't mention guns on you this includes yeah just for that card people put in their pocket guess what they're going to wash their pants they're never going to look at it again so just keep that in mind but at least at one time you give it to them it'll register but you got 33,000 residents
just remember in instagram you have what 17,000 followers that's what miami had on instagram yeah but we had we had it where we were doing we were giving them out to the businesses and we even had the little holder remember we had the holder that they could sit it right by the register and everything but think
about it you're talking about instagram it's instant gratification i hate to it's it's the news it's a new game it's the new game we're gonna get you on instagram too we got to put it next for next meeting let's let's figure how much 20.1k all right there you go 20,000 followers
okay there you go so that's we got to figure out what the dollar lose it is and we got to put that on instagram okay so let's figure out how for next meeting how we okay next item go quickly late coffee from medicica um are we looking with uh with chris to so we can get
something going because he's already going down south i saw what um what are you shooting for like what we did we i don't know if you want to do something in in may we can't may so we
got to do either june or july to talk to him to do something for the next event just to get him on the horn you know and maybe we'll just talk to him to see if you know maybe we'll get like a vicki bakery something that's a little more popular to get people to come out to latin america yeah or american grill to
see just to kind of get his availability so the next meeting we come in and we say "okay this is what we want to do." and we take we take headway for it and i think that it's really important also because keep in mind summer heat stroke fire guys i'm sure you're getting a lot of those calls so we want to you know kind of attack that question real quick
okay um if i remember correctly pedro from the public safety committee uh elderly affairs committee is very very involved with nikki bakery i believe and i think
if we would like i can ask pedro to ask on our behalf no i want to do that i have the i have the owners i just text her to then you're gonna yeah i need chris's availability chris says "hey we're good." then we'll we'll go ahead all right let's keep we don't have to
discuss the budget guys there's another set that's being pushed to may we don't have a lot i'm going to defer okay the next one is an easy one women's self-defense force there it is did you guys get emails please yes may 27 28 29 if we can please push
it out on our social media to get people involved isabella if we can please print them out for the may 8th bingo event if we can have i can send an email to io with anything just so that i can bring them because they were interested she'll get yeah email okay i'll email he's
going to get a lot of them okay so email is for that okay the one complaint that i will tell you guys for the next time so that we can help out the sheriff's department and citizens crime watch it's still school i think that that would have been that would have been even better in the summer
because all all the parents are thinking about graduation i don't know when's your graduation so they're all thinking about graduation so okay the other one is so we're moving quickly the uh psse website update wants to do some sort of a handout for us so that we can get more
publicity on our website so something else to think about for next meeting is if you all can take five minutes and go on our website and look at what our responsibilities are so that we can update that it's way overdue all right so we got to figure out um how to update that so we can give it to communications
and uh and update it okay the next item the knocking and ditching psa nancy i guess you wanted to add this to the agenda is this something that we want to you want to talk about today or do you want to go ahead and defer with the lock it or lose it and kind of tie it all in next meeting i think i think by itself
it's serious enough that we need to bring it up soon whatever whatever we're going to do about it it needs to be done right away because it's going on right now and i didn't know about it and there's a lot of people that don't know about it and are going to get hurt by it by not knowing about it it's something
we need to do right away even if it's put in the miami laker or whatever whatever can be done the fastest and cover the most people and then we can always follow up with something well i i'm just shocked by this whole story you told so i'll show you the video um i'm
just um i think it needs to be brought up right away and don't make it take longer because we want to do a video yeah know it doesn't have to be like a major production just something saying don't the consequences of doing this are boom boom boom boom
that's it like bullet points or something like i said even if you put it in in the mighty laker makes more people aware but it's it we've got to do something well we have to there's a camp the lock it or lose it with you know and all the points that ne was saying that's
one campaign and this is a whole other campaign now i will tell you both of them are very urgent because guess what that not getting cards for lockets have you got any cards left that's for the news chamber lunchon yes i i will check
at home how many there are i got i think a lot of them okay so then let's go ahead next meeting we have some homework to bring that up next meeting a few things to think about okay all right announcements uh the quarterly chair meeting is may 6 whoever wants to join me on the fund with the other committee
uh chair people we'll need times and places on this okay that's usually uh in the chamber i don't know the timing i'm sorry but i can i can make sure that um i send it to the group uh next next council i'm sorry 6 pm 6 p.m i also send
