AARON HALL. MY NAME IS  AARON HALL, AM SORRY, I CANNOT  BE IN PERSON TO VOICE MY  CONCERNS AS I WORK FULL TIME  AS THE AGENDA IS DISCUSSING  DIFFERENT ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES  TODAY I WOULD LIKE HAVE THAT  YOU CONSENT. I WOULD LIKE TO  KNOW WE CAN GET A SUMMARY  MOSTLY THE WEBSITE OF WAS  BEING DONE WITH THE NATURAL  RESOURCES DEPARTMENT IN  PARTICULAR THAT REFUND MONEY I  WOULD LIKE TO KNOW BENEFITS WE  HAVE SPENT THE MONEY ON EACH  MONTH AND HOW MANY ACTUAL  PLANTS, TREES OR SEEDS HAVE WE  PLAN TO PUT THE THAT WE GET ON  FROM FACEBOOK AS TO PLETCHER.  WHEN YOU ORIGINALLY DISCUSSED  CREATING THE NATURAL RESOURCES  DEPARTMENT AND THEIR ROLE THAT  WAS HELD IN A COMMISSIONER  MEETING BUT THEN HIRE MENTAL  FOR PRESIDENT YOU EMPHASIZE  YOU'RE ABLE TO USE THE MONEY  FROM THE TREE FUND TO PAY FOR  SALARIES FOR ENTIRE NATURAL  RESOURCES DEPARTMENT  MAINTENANCE WORKERS OR ARE  REST AS WELL AS A LINE OF  VEHICLES TO RUN THE  DEPARTMENT. WE STRESSED IN  ORDER TO OPEN THIS DEPARTMENT  AND RUN IT RIGHT YOU NEED  FUNDS FROM THE TREE FUND TO  COVER EXPENSES AND SET UP. AND  YOU TELL US HOW MUCH IS IN THE  ACTUAL TREE FUND AS OF TODAY.  HOW MUCH WAS THE START-UP  COSTS. MISTER FLETCHER YOU  ALSO SAID YOU WOULD TAPER DOWN  THE FUNDS TAKEN FROM THE TREE  FUND EACH YEAR TO COVER  SALARIES AND EQUIPMENT AS A  TREE FUND WILL NOT BE AND  INFINITE AMOUNT OR SOURCE TO  COVER THE NATURAL RESOURCES  DEPARTMENT EXPENSES. YOU HAVE  A TIMELINE OR PLAN ON WHEN YOU  PLAN TO REDUCE USING TREE FUND  MONEY TO COVER SALARIES. WHAT  IS IT STARTING THAT REFUND IS  NOT GOING TO BE EVERLASTING  THAT REFUND MONEY WAS INTENDED  TO PROMOTE HABITAT RESTORATION  BY PLANTING TREES NATIVE  PLANTS, NOT AS A SOURCE TO  BAIL OUT THE CITY BUDGET  MISMANAGEMENT. LOOK AROUND AT  THE MASSIVE DEVELOPMENT IN THE  CITY WE CANNOT AFFORD TO WAIT  TO USE THIS MONEY FOR THE  RIGHT PURPOSE, WHICH IS WAS  INTENDED WHICH PLANTING TREES  AND PLANTS RESTORING MINISTRY  NOTHING. PATRICK. A NEW PLACE  DIRECTLY TO WHERE I CAN FIND  THE ANSWERS TO THE FOLLOWING  QUESTIONS. ONE IS THERE PLAN  TO PLACE IF PLAN IN PLACE TO  TRANSITION, THE SALARIES FROM  THE NATURAL RESOURCES IT'S  FROM THE TREE FUND TO THE  CITY'S BUDGET. IF SO HOW LONG  IT'S A 100% OF THAT REFUND  WILL BE SPENT ON PURCHASING  TREES. SO WHERE CAN WE FIND  THE CURRENT LOCATION TO TREAT  PLANNING PROJECTS FUNDED BY  THE CITY TREE FARMS. I THINK  WE FIND HOW MUCH MONEY IS  CURRENTLY IN THE FUND. WHAT IS  THE MOST RECENT TREE CANOPY  STUDY IS THERE ANY PLAN IN  PLACE TO STREET FUNDS FOR A  NEW TREE CANOPY STUDY. DORIS  GALLON. I AM WRITING TO  EXPRESS MY CONCERN REGARDING  RECENT STATEMENTS BY  COMMISSIONER LANGDON REGARDING  OUR PARKS AND RECREATION AREA  AS A RESIDENT PORT I VALUE OUR  PARKS AS ESSENTIAL COMPONENTS  OF COMMUNITY'S IDENTITY IN  QUALITY OF LIFE. WELL THE NEW  POLICE STATION IS ON THAT WE  NECESSARY IT IS CRUCIAL TO  RIGHT SIZE AND NOT AT THE  EXPENSE OF 20 YEARS OF PARKS.  MUST PRIORITIZE FOUND SPREAD  THAT INCLUDES THE PRESENTATION  ENHANCE MEANT OF OUR PARK  PLANS. NORTH PORT IS A UNIQUE  CITY WITH A MEDIAN AGE OF 48  AND A HIGHER NUMBER OF  CHILDREN COMPARED TO  SURROUNDING AREAS. PARKS PLAY  A CRUCIAL ROLE IN OUR  COMMUNITY PROVIDING BALANCE TO  OUR DEVELOPMENT AND SERVING AS  ECONOMIC DRIVERS, IT IS  IMPORTANT FOR COMMISSIONER.  LIKE THEM TO UNDERSTAND THAT  GROWTH NEEDS TO BE BALANCED  AND PARKS ARE ESSENTIAL IN  ACHIEVING THIS RECREATIONAL  OPPORTUNITIES ALSO HAVE A  SIGNIFICANT ECONOMIC IMPACT  AND ATTRACT NEW RESIDENTS WHO  SEE QUALITY OF LIFE.  COMMISSIONER LANGDON EDUCATE  HERSELF ON THE ECONOMIC  DEVELOPMENT COMPONENTS OF  PARKS. WHILE DEVELOPMENT IS  INEVITABLE NOT SUPPORTING  ENCOURAGING AND ACQUIRING  PARKLAND'S IS UNACCEPTABLE.  OUR PARKS AND PARK LIKE  COMMUNITY ARE MAJOR REASONS  WHY MANY CHOOSE TO ITS PORT. I  ALSO WANT TO HIGHLIGHT  OUTSTANDING WORK OF OUR PARKS  AND RECREATION DEPARTMENT THEY  PROVIDE SAFE AND QUALITY  PROGRAMS EVENTS PARKS THAT  ENHANCE OUR COMMUNITY.  COMMISSIONERS LANG THEM  COMMISSIONER LANGDON  DISRESPECT FOR THEIR WORK IS  NOT REPRESENTATIVE OF REQUESTS  ADDITIONALLY I URGE MAYOR  WHITE JUNIOR SUPPORT FOR  CONSERVATION EFFORTS AND TO  ADVOCATE FOR ABOUT SPIRIT THAT  PRESERVES OUR PARKS AND GREEN  SPACES, THANK YOU FOR YOUR  TIME OPERATION. IN-PERSON WE  HAVE ROBIN CAMPUS AND TAKE ALL  BY JOSH SMITH AND THEN JOE  MORGAN. MORNING  >> ROBIN CENTER CENTER FOR THE  RECORD. THIS IS A. PERSONAL IN  A VERY TOUCHY. TOM AND I HAVE  TO MAKE STATEMENTS. IT'S  REGARDING. BEING THE  OPPOSITION.  >> WE ARE BEING MADE FOR 2.  >> AS THE OPPOSITION BECAUSE  WE DON'T AGREE WHAT'S CERTAIN  COMMISSION DIRECTIVES CHOICES.  WHAT HAVE YOU. BECAUSE THE WAY  THE WORD IS BEING USED. IT'S  ACTUALLY DEMONIZING US  CITIZENS WHO HAVE A VOICE.  BRING ITS 4TH TO YOU AT YOUR  REQUEST ALL THE TIME WE WANT  TO HEAR FROM YOU WE WANT TO  GIVE BUT AT THE SAME TIME THAT  YOU WANT TO HEAR FROM WE'RE  HEARING AND BEING LABELED AS  THE OPPOSITION AND A VERY  NEGATIVE MATT. AND TO BRING  YOU UP TO AN EXAMPLE THAT HAD  PUBLIX 2 WEEKENDS AGO. YOU  KNOW I AM SHOPPING AND A WOMAN  TO COST ME VERBALLY CALLING ME  THE HEAD OF THE OPPOSITION. IF  YOU DON'T LIKE A CITY GET THE  **** OUT ABOUT CITY, WHAT DO  YOU THINK SHE WENT ON AND ON  AND ON AND ON. GRANTED BECAUSE  SHE SEES ME ON VIDEOS SAYS ME  AND THE NEWSPAPER WHAT HAVE  YOU. I JUST LET AND SO THANK  COMMENT **** BUT I'M BUT THAT  WAS ONE EXAMPLE AND I SEE IT  ON SOCIAL MEDIA TOO. I HAVE  BEEN WORKING WITH THE CITY FOR  18 YEARS WITH SEVERAL  COMMISSIONS BUT BE I JUST  DON'T I. IS THAT IS IT.  >> WE'RE SEEING A CHECK AUDIO  UP HERE. BUT I THOUGHT YOUR  FAMILY THAT'S IT THEY'RE  TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHERE THE  TIMERS NOT SHOWING ON THE  SCREEN. I'M SO SORRY TO  INTERRUPT YOU THAT'S OK BEING  KEPT COMING BACK MY MAN, HER.  >> AND THE WAY.  >> I HAVE TO SAY THAT IT'S  ILLEGAL TOOK. DURING THE P 3  ISSUE THAT WE HAVE WITH WOMAN  WILL SPRINGS. WHEN A WHOLE  BUNCH THOSE CAME AND HE WAS  SPEAKING AGAINST IT. AND THEN  UNFORTUNATELY I HAVE TO CALL  YOU OUT MISTER FLETCHER  BECAUSE YOU STARTED IT WITH  COOLING US. THE OPPOSITION.  YOU ALSO THEN CHALLENGE DOES  IF THE OPPOSITION THINKS THAT  THEY CAN DO BETTER. BECAUSE  WE'VE ALREADY DONE THE WORK  BRING IT FORTH BASICALLY I'M  SUMMARIZING. THE WAY IT WAS  SAID AGAIN DEMONIZES THERE'S A  WHOLE WAY OF HELP THINGS CAN  BE SET PROPERLY THAT ALLOWS  CITIZENS TO FEEL COMFORTABLE  WHEN THEY COME BEFORE YOU AND  TO SPEAK THEIR MIND. WE HAVE  THAT RIGHT. IT'S YOU ASKING US  TO BRING IT FORTH TOO. WE  DON'T ALWAYS AGREE TO YOU, BUT  WE HAVE THE BETTERMENT OF THE  COMMUNITY AT HEART AND ALWAYS  LOOKING FORWARD TO WORKING  WITH THIS COMMISSION. WORKED  18 YEARS WITH SEVERAL  COMMISSIONS AND ALL SORTS OF  PROJECTS AND NOT ONCE HAVE  HEARD THAT COME OUT OF  ANYBODY'S MOUTH UNTIL THIS  WHOLE STUPID P 3 CAME TO  FRUITION. AND IT'S GOT TO STOP  THEM. BECAUSE WHAT YOU'RE  DOING IS YOU'RE PREVENTING  CITIZENS FROM COMING FORWARD  AND SPEAKING THEIR MIND  BECAUSE THAT JUST SAYING WHAT  THE **** NOBODY'S GOING TO  LISTEN TO US ANYWAY OR WHEN  YOU GET DAMON EYES WILL BEGIN  TO GET BLACKLISTED. AND IT'S  LONG. IT'S JUST SO LONG AND I  CAN STRESS THAT POINT ENOUGH,  ESPECIALLY BEING ACCOSTED AT  PUBLIX IT SHOULDN'T EXPECT BUT  IS THAT YOU DON'T HAVE DONE.  >> YEAH, OKAY ATHLETES REALLY  CONSIDER IT. THANK YOU ROBIN.  >> WE HAVE THE TIME OR WORKING  YOU HAVE THAT. PEOPLE IS NEXT.  >> WARNER MY NAME IS JEFF  SMELL. LIVE OUT AND DISTRICT I  WATCHED THE 5 HOUR AND 10  MINUTE.

THE BILL POLICE  STATION. LET'S ASK THE PEOPLE  AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS THAT'S  ALL THANK YOU. HI JOHN MORGAN  PORT. AND THUS A FEW THINGS  THAT SOME OF THESE OTHER  PEOPLE HAVE  >> WITH THE SECOND FASTEST  GROWING CITY FOLKS AND LOOK AT  ALL THAT STUFF THAT'S COMING  AROUND HERE.

LET ME  GIVE YOU A FEW BECAUSE I FEEL  THAT YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE SOME  OF THEM RIGHT NOW OKAY NUMBER  ONE, 1974 JOHN DEERE WANTED TO  BUILD THAT SOME FOR WANT I 75  THEM THROUGH A HOTEL OUT. IT  NOT A GAS STATION, YOU KNOW  THE CITY COMMISSION THAT'S  THAT IT WILL COST 3 MALE  POLICEMAN KNOW WHAT. THAT  HOTEL WOULD HAVE BEEN 45 YEARS  BEFORE THE HOTEL NOW APP. AND  LOOK AT WHAT WE DID TO TRY TO  GET OUT. WARM MINERAL SPRINGS  A HUGE MISTAKE WE HAD IT WITH  THE COUNTY. WE COULD TAKE WE  HAD SOME COMMISSIONERS THAT  FRANKLY I NEVER AGREED WITH  OKAY AT THE TIME AND THEY GOT  RID OF THAT AND NOW GUESS WHAT  NOW WE HAVE THE WHOLE BIRD NOT  WARM MINERAL SPRINGS THE ONLY  THING THAT THE WORLD OWES A  SPOT. THAT'S WORLD FAMOUS.  THAT'S NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC.  THE MOMENT CENTER.  >> REMEMBER THAT ANYBODY WAS  AROUND WHEN THEY WANTED TO GET  RID THEM ALL AND CENTER. OH MY  GOSH WILL NEVER USE THAT IT  COST TOO MUCH, LET'S GIVE IT  TO THE YMCA FOR HARDLY  ANYTHING. OKAY YMCA HAD A GOOD  THING IN TOWN AND HOPEFULLY  THEY'LL BE BACK SOMEDAY I'M  HOPING THAT TOO. BUT ON THE  OTHER HAND IT WAS THEIR  MISMANAGEMENT. OKAY, WE  WOULD'VE GOTTEN RID OF THE  MOMENTS THAT ARE WHAT WE HAVE  DONE. THEY THEY WANT TO GET  RID OF THAT THEY HAD THE  COMMISSIONERS. STRAIGHT PEOPLE  WEARING RED TO GET RID OF A  FLIGHT BECAUSE IN A IT  DISTURBS SOME PEOPLE SLEEP.  AND IT COSTS MONEY. SO THAT  SAY THE FEW WIVES. MUCH. DO  YOU WANT ME TO GO ON ABOUT IT  WHAT 42 YEARS. AND WE HAD  COMMISSIONERS ON RECORDS SAY  IF PEOPLE WANTED TO SWIM THAT  COULD PUT A POOL IN THEIR  BACKYARD. WHAT THEY CENTER'S  DOT LOOK AT WHAT OUR PARKS AND  REC PENCE DOT LOOK BOTH THE  CHICO AND SOME OF THESE AREAS  THAT ARE DYING FOR NEW PARKS,  AND WE NEED THEM.  >> LOOK AT WHAT'S HAPPENING  WITH ROAD.  THANK YOU. IS THAT IT OKAY.  >> SO MOVE ON TO  ANNOUNCEMENTS.  >> THE CURRENT VACANCIES FOR  THE FOLLOWING BOARDS AND  COMMITTEES INCLUDE ART  ADVISORY BOARD AUDITOR  SELECTION COMMITTEE CHARTER  REVIEW ADVISORY BOARD CITIZENS  TAX OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE  ENVIRONMENTAL ADVISORY BOARD  PLANNING AND ZONING ADVISORY  BOARD VETERANS PARK ADVISORY  COMMITTEE AND ZONING BOARD OF  APPEALS SARASOTA COUNTY  ADVISORY COUNCIL VACANCIES  INCLUDE ONE RESIDENT OF PORT  TO SERVE ON THE CITIZEN  ADVISORY COMMITTEE AND ONE  RESIDENT OF NORTH PORT TO  SERVE ON THE CITIZENS  OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE FOR SCHOOL  FACILITY PLANNING ANYONE WOULD  LIKE MORE INFORMATION THEY SEE  THE CITY CLERK'S OFFICE THANK  YOU.  >> AND ITEM B 24 DASH 0, 5, 1,  4, CITY CLERK YOUR ITEM.  >> IS THIS ITEM IS TO REVIEW  ADVISORY BOARD'S  RECOMMENDATIONS POSSIBLE  DIRECTION REGARDING PLACEMENT  ON A FUTURE AGENDA ITEM FOR  DISCUSSION ADVISORY BOARDS  TYPICALLY WILL PROVIDE THEIR  RECOMMENDATIONS BE A  MEMORANDUM THROUGH IT MYSELF  OR THE CITY MANAGER AND THEY  GET EMAIL TO COMMISSION WE IN  THE PAST WE'VE TYPICALLY JUST  WAITING A COMMISSIONER  REQUESTED THEY BE ON AGENDA  FOR DISCUSSION WE WOULD PUT  THEM ON THERE. BUT WE HAVE  RECEIVED SOME CONCERN BUT OF  THE COMMISSION AS WELL AS  ADVISORY BOARD MEMBERS THAT  THERE MIGHT BE A MISSING LINK  SOMEWHERE. BUT THIS  INFORMATION GETTING YOU KNOW  TO THE COMMISSION OR BACK TO  THE PFIZER WE DECIDED TO START  PUTTING THEM ON THE FIRST  MEETING OF EACH MONTH. SO FOR  THE MONTH PRIOR TO THIS ONE  HAS ONE OUTSIDE OF THE MONTH  PRIOR OBVIOUSLY I WENT BACK TO  OCTOBER 1ST AND FOUND THE  MEMOS THAT WE HAD OUTSTANDING  AND PLACE THEM ON THIS AGENDA.  IN THE FUTURE WILL BE FOR THE  MONTH PRIOR IF WE RECEIVE ANY  IT WILL GO ON THE NEXT MONTH'S  AGENDA ITEMS FOR A COMMISSION  TO REVIEW THOSE ITEMS IN THE  TERM AND IF WE WANT TO PUT HIM  ON IT. ANOTHER AGENDA FOR  DISCUSSION. SO FOR THIS ONE WE  DO  >> MEMORANDUMS THAT WERE  PROVIDED TO MISSION FROM ALL  OF THEM FROM THE ENVIRONMENTAL  ADVISORY BOARD. ONE FOR  ENVIRONMENTAL SCORE CARD ONE  PROTEST ASIDE SWIM FOR LAND  ACQUISITION. ONE FOR  CONSERVATION EASEMENTS AND ONE  FOR COMMUNITY GARDENS. IT'S  GONNA BE IN PLACE THAT GOING  TO TALK ABOUT THAT WE WANT TO  TALK ABOUT THE SPECIFIC ITEMS  THEMSELVES JUST DETERMINE  AMONGST YOURSELVES IF THEY ARE  SOMETHING THAT THE COMMISSION  AS A WHOLE WOULD LIKE TO TALK  ABOUT MORE THE FUTURE OR MAYBE  SENT A MEMORANDUM BACK TO THE  ADVISORY BOARD LETTING THEM  KNOW THAT WE DID RECEIVE  RANDOM NOT GOING TO HAVE  FUTURE DISCUSSION ON IT AT  THIS TIME SOMETHING TO THE ALL  RIGHT COMMISSIONER LANGDON.  >> THANK YOU JUST A JUST A  COMMENT RECENTLY WE HAD THE  CHARTER REVIEW BOARD COME AND  SORT OF GIVE US AN ANNUAL  REPORT I TALKED A LITTLE BIT  ABOUT. BUT THEY HAD WORKED ON  THE CURRENT YEAR AND AND WHAT  THEY WERE GOING TO FOCUS ON  AND THE UPCOMING YEAR. IF THE  OTHER ADVISORY BOARDS WOULD BE  WILLING TO DO THAT I REALLY  THANK EACH OF THE ADVISORY  BOARD SHOULD COME WE SHOULD  HAVE A MEETING WITH THEM.  EVERY YEAR AND MAYBE MORE  FREQUENTLY IF THERE'S AN AWFUL  LOT GOING ON THAT WE NEED TO  DISCUSS. SO I I I DON'T KNOW  HOW OTHER PEOPLE FEEL ABOUT  THAT BUT I THOUGHT THAT WAS A  VERY EFFECTIVE NEEDING.  >> THE PFIZER BOARDS DO HAVE  THE OPTION TO SUBMIT THEIR  ANNUAL REPORT EITHER BE A  MEMORANDUM THEY CAN PROVIDE A  PRESENTATION TO COMMISSION OR  THEY CAN HAVE A JOINT MEETING  WITH COMMISSION SO ADVISORY  BOARDS DECIDE HOW THEY WANT TO  DO THAT WITH THE CHARTER THEY  PROVIDED THERE'S MEMORANDUM  AND THEN COMMISSIONER HAD  REQUESTED TOP A JOINT MEETING  WITH THEM RIGHT ON WORKED  THAT, BUT I WOULD HOPE THAT  THE STAFF LIAISONS WITH THE  ADVISORY GROUPS WOULD  ENCOURAGE THEM I REALLY  ENJOYED HAVING THEM COME AND  >> AND WE ALL HAD AN  OPPORTUNITY TO ASK QUESTIONS  AND HAVE CONVERSATION. YOU  KNOW AMONGST OURSELVES AND  WITH THE ADVISORY BOARD  MEMBERS DIRECTLY SO I I'D LIKE  TO SEE US BE A LITTLE MORE  PROACTIVE IN ENCOURAGING THEM,  I MEAN IF THEY DON'T WANT TO  DO IT. I DON'T WANT TO DO IT  THAT'S FINE BUT THEY MIGHT NOT  REALIZE IT'S AN OPTION AND AND  THEY MIGHT NOT REALIZE, I'LL  SPEAK FOR MYSELF THAT I REALLY  DO WANT TO HEAR FROM THEM GET  THEIR PERSPECTIVE ON HOW THE  YEAR WENT YOU KNOW WHAT THEIR  PRIORITIES ARE GOING TO BE  MOVING FORWARD SO I DON'T KNOW  HOW OTHERS FEEL YEAH I'D LIKE  TO SEE A LOT MORE PROACTIVE  INTERACTION BETWEEN THIS  COMMISSION AND OUR ADVISORY  GROUPS. COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL.  >> I COULDN'T AGREE MORE WITH  COMMISSIONER LANGDON OUR  ADVISORY GROUPS ARE THERE TO  SERVE AND RECOMMEND THINGS TO  THIS COMMISSION. STAFF LIAISON  IS THROUGH THE CITY MANAGER'S  OFFICE. AND TOO OFTEN AND THIS  IS NOT JUST WITH THIS  COMMISSION THIS HAS BEEN GOING  ON BEFORE I EVEN GOT ELECTED  WHERE ADVISORY BOARDS DIDN'T  FEEL OF VALUE. FOR THEIR TIME  AND THEIR VOLUNTEERISM. THEY  DIDN'T FEEL VALUE WITH THE  RECOMMENDATIONS TO THE  COMMISSION. IT WAS WRONG THEN  AND IT STILL IS WRONG TODAY  HOUR BOARD MEMBERS ARE BOUND.  BUT THE ONLY WAY WE CAN  EXPRESS THAT IS IF WE ACTUALLY  HAVE SOME INTERACTION WITH  THEM. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE.  THEN COME GIVE THE ANNUAL  REPORT PERSON. POSSIBLY AT THE  JOINT MEETING. THE BIGGER  ISSUE IS THE REASON WHY WE  HAVE THIS NEW AGENDA ITEM. TO  REVIEW THE ADVISORY BOARD'S  RECOMMENDATIONS IS BECAUSE THE  RECOMMENDATION MEMOS WOULD GET  LOST SOMEWHERE FOR A VERY LONG  TIME WASN'T JUST RECENTLY. I  WOULD SEE IT OR I WOULD HEAR  IT WHEN I GO BACK AND LISTEN  TO THE ADVISORY BOARD'S  MEETINGS OR REVIEW THEIR  MINUTES AGO WE MET WORST MEMO.  AND I I WOULD MAKE A LITTLE  KNOW HOPING THAT IT WOULD BE  COMING IN MONTHS WOULD PASS  AND THEN WHERE'S THE MEMO. I  WOULD PUT THEM ON THE AGENDA  FOR DISCUSSION AND WE WOULD  HAVE A GREAT DISCUSSION  AMONGST OURSELVES. BUT A  COMPONENT IS THE ADVICE YOU  CAN POUR PERSONALLY I DON'T  UNDERSTAND IT'S THE AGENDA.  THE MEMOS ARE LISTED WHY CAN  WE NOT TALK NOW WHY DO WE HAVE  TO.  >> OK I'D LIKE TO PLACES ON  AGENDA FOR FUTURE DISCUSSION  WE'RE HERE IT'S ON THE AGENDA.  IT'S BEEN NOTICED WE CAN  DISCUSS IT NOW MAKES NO SENSE  TO PUT IT ON A FUTURE  COMMISSION AGENDA TO DISCUSS  IT AT THAT TIME.  >> THESE MEMOS ARE VERY VALID.  SOME OF THEM. WE ARE ALREADY  WORKING ON. BUT AGAIN IT'S  THIS COMMUNICATION BREAKDOWN  THAT SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING.  THAT THEY DON'T KNOW WE'RE  WORKING ON SOMETHING. SO WE'VE  HAD JOINT MEETINGS WITH THE BE  IN THE PAST AND THEY WERE VERY  PRODUCTIVE. THEY WERE VERY  PRODUCTIVE AT THAT TIME AND  SADLY. IN MY OPINION IT JUST  KIND OF. WHEN AWAY. NOTHING  REALLY CAME OF IT. WE NEED TO  DO BETTER BY OUR ADVISORY  BOARDS. WE TRULY AND I DON'T  KNOW HOW THAT LOOKS I DON'T  KNOW WHAT THAT LIKE.  >> I THAT MAYBE WITH THE  TRAINING WOULD BE HELPFUL WERE  SUPPOSED TO BE TRAINING THE  LIAISONS.  >> BECAUSE THEY ARE THE  LIAISONS FROM THE CITY  MANAGER'S OFFICE BECAUSE THEIR  STAFF TO THE COMMISSION. SOME  THINGS GETTING LOST. AND THAT  NEEDS TO BE IDENTIFIED AND  FIXED. AND I REALLY BELIEVE  THAT BECAUSE THESE AGENDA THIS  AGENDA ITEM INCLUDES ALL 5 OF  THESE MEMOS. WE CAN TALK ABOUT  HIM TODAY. INSTEAD OF PUTTING  IT ON FUTURE AGENDA. THAT'S  ALL I HAVE OKAY VICE MAYOR  CITY CLERK YOU WANT TO SAY  SOMETHING. THIS IS THE FIRST  TIME THAT WE PLACED US ON HERE  SO WE DO WANT TO MAKE CHANGES  TO THE PROCESS. WE CAN DO THAT  IT WAS JUST TRYING TO FIND A  WAY TO. BRING THEM IN FRONT OF  COMMISSION TO WHERE THE VISOR  BOARD CAN SEE THEY ARE BEING  PRESENTED EVERYBODY IT'S  GETTING TO SEE THEM THEY'RE  ALL GOING TO BE LOCATIONS SO  WE CAN OBVIOUSLY MAKE THOSE  CHANGES AS WE NEED TO GO AND.  >> THESE ITEMS THAT ARE ON  HERE RIGHT NOW WE'RE PROVIDED  STAFF LIAISON DID PROVIDE  THESE ITEMS THESE 5 DOCUMENTS  THROUGH THE CITY MANAGER'S  OFFICE AND THEY WERE E-MAIL.  THAT IS WHERE I PULLED THEM  FROM WAS THE E-MAILS THAT  PERCENTS OF THESE PARTICULAR  ITEMS I CAN SPEAK TO THAT THEY  THEY DID GO THROUGH THE  PROCESS THAT WE HAVE SINCE WE  HAVE STARTED DOING THE  TRAINING WITH THE STAFF  LIAISONS AND ADVISORY BOARDS.  CURRENTLY THEY ARE MAKING IT  THROUGH THE CITY MANAGER'S  OFFICE INTO COMMISSION. OKAY  CITY ATTORNEY.  >> YES, I JUST WANT TO ADDRESS  SOME OF THE COMMISSIONER'S  COMMENTS REGARDING PUBLIC  NOTICE AND THIS ITEM AS THE  AGENDA ITEM THAT IT DOES  INDICATE THAT IF THE  COMMISSION IS GOING TO DISCUSS  THEM. THE MAYOR THESE ADVISORY  BOARD RECOMMENDATIONS BUT THAT  WILL OCCUR FUTURE DAY BECAUSE  OF THE WAY THIS IS WORDED I IT  IS MY ADVICE THE COMMISSION  NOT DISCUSS SUBSTANCE OF THESE  ASIANS TODAY BECAUSE SOMEONE  WHO'S INTERESTED IN THEM. THEY  HAVE READ THIS AND POT O WELL  IF THE COMMISSION WANT TO TAKE  ACTION IT'S GOING TO BE ON  ANOTHER AGENDA AND THEY MAY  HAVE FOREGONE OPPORTUNITY TO  AND TODAY'S MEETING FOR THAT  REASON. NOW IF YOU ALL WANT  THIS TO BE HANDLED DIFFERENTLY  IN THE FUTURE. WE CAN MORE  THESE ITEMS NO DIFFERENTLY BUT  AS TODAY I WOULD I WOULD  CAUTION THE BOARD NOT TO  ADDRESS THE SPECIFIC ITEMS AS  FAR AS SUBSTANCE, BUT IF YOU  WANT TO TALK ABOUT THEM HAVING  ANOTHER OK THANK YOU.  >> RIGHT OFF THINK THE REALLY  RIGHTEOUS I WOODS. I WOULD  LIKE TO SEE OUR NATURAL  RESOURCE MISSION. GET WITH  THIS ADVISORY BOARD TIGHTEN UP  A BIT. FOCUS IT AND COME BACK  TO THIS COMMISSION WITH YOU  KNOW SOME SPECIFICS NOT JUST  THE RECOMMENDATIONS BUT  PERHAPS IMPLEMENTATION PLANS A  LITTLE DEEPER DIVE INTO EACH  OF THESE SO THAT THEY CAN COME  BEFORE US FOR ACTUAL ACTION  RATHER THAN JUST GENERAL  DISCUSSION. I PERSONALLY I  DON'T SEE HOW ANYBODY COULD  HAVE PROBLEMS WITH 5 QUITE  FRANKLY, BUT TO COMFORT THEM  FROM RECOMMENDATIONS TO  IMPLEMENTATION OR ACTION  REQUIRED TO PROCESS IT  REQUIRES SOME A LITTLE DEEPER  DIVE AND I THINK THAT'S. IN MY  OPINION. PART OF THE  RESPONSIBILITY NATURAL  RESOURCE DEPARTMENT I THINK  COULD COLLABORATE COMEBACK AND  WE COULD ACTUALLY HAVE SOME  ACTION ON THESE ITEMS WHICH I  THINK WOULD BE VERY HELPFUL  AND VERY BENEFICIAL SINCE AS I  SAID I THINK THE REAL RIGHT,  >> ALL COMMISSIONER AVERAGE TO  DO HAVE A COMMENT.  >> YES HOLD ON. ADVISORY  BOARDS. THEY HAVE THE OPTION  TO TO MEET WITH US ON A YEARLY  BASIS. I WOULD LIKE TO MORE OF  A MANDATORY TYPES WHERE WE CAN  GET HIM PERSON WITH THESE  ADVISORY BOARDS WE CAN SIT AND  LISTEN TO THEM. WORD ON BOARD  AND GO THROUGH ALL OF WHAT  THEY PROPOSE AND POSSIBLY HAVE  DISCUSSIONS ON WHY IT MAY NOT  BE DONE OR WHY IT CAN BE DONE  OR HOW WE'RE GOING TO THINGS  BUT BUT I THINK THAT THE  YEARLY MEETINGS BETWEEN THE  ADVISORY BOARDS IN THE  COMMISSION. REALLY A MUST  GOING FORWARD ESPECIALLY IN  TODAY'S TIMES. YOU KNOW WITH  ALL THE GROWTH FIGURING OUT  WHAT WHAT MAY BE WORKING OUT  THERE WHAT MAY NOT BE WORKING  OUT THERE WE'RE NOT ALL KNOWN  AS COMMISSIONERS. I LOVE  HAVING INPUT FROM THE PUBLIC  WHERE THEY CAN COME IN AND SAY  HEY. THIS POLICY JUST A  WORKING BECAUSE OF ACTS. SO I  I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THEM MORE  OF A MANDATORY TYPE THING TO  BRING THEIR SUGGESTIONS  FORWARD ON A YEARLY BASIS. SO  THAT'S THAT'S MY $0.2 HIGHER.  >> GOT A QUESTION YOU THAT  SOMETHING ABOUT THE FIRST  MEETING OF EVERY MONTH. THAT  YEAR. YOU ARE SUGGESTING.  >> YES SO IT'S A WERE IN APRIL  NOW SO IN APRIL IF WE RECEIVE  FROM OUR ADVISORY BOARD IF WE  RECEIVE ANY MEMORANDUMS FROM  THEM. YES MONTH APRIL. FIRST  MEETING OF. MAY WILL HAVE ALL  OF THOSE MEMORANDUMS ATTACHED  TO AGENDA ITEM FOR DISCUSSION  OR OR ADVISORY BOARD YES, THE  ONES THAT WE RECEIVED FOR  APRIL MAY THAT WOULD BE NOTED  IN THE AGENDA. WHAT. THE  INCLUDING THE AGENDA. PEOPLE  WOULD KNOW WHAT WOULD BE  TALKING ABOUT YES AND AND LIKE  A MISLEADING SAID WE COULD.  MODIFY THE TITLE SO THAT WE  CAN DISCUSS IT AT THAT OKAY.  ALL RIGHT AND IF I COULD ADD  REALLY FAST FROM COMMISSIONERS  TOOK PLACE MERCED OAKS THE NEW  STAFF LIAISON FOR THE  ENVIRONMENTAL BOARD EMPLOYEE  IN THE NATURAL RESOURCES  DIVISION 2 SO THAT'S HELPFUL.  I JUST INTERJECT SOMETHING  QUICK WICKETS DIRECTLY RELATED  JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE IT OK  WITH COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL  SHE'S BEEN ON THE WEST.  >> I THINK WE NEED TO FIGURE  OUT HOW HOW WE WANT TO. ACT ON  OUR RESPOND TO THIS  INFORMATION I THINK HAVING IT  AS PART OF THE AGENDA. SET AN  EXPECTATION THAT IT'S GOING TO  BE DISCUSSED. IF THAT'S NOT  HOW THIS BOARD WANTS TO  PROCEED WITH THAT I WOULD  SUGGEST. WE ADD THEM BECAUSE I  LIKE GETTING THAT VISIBILITY  BECAUSE WE GET INUNDATED WITH  E-MAILS AND IT'S EASY TO  SOMETHING. BUT IN THE REPORT  SECTION. AND THEN STAFF  LIAISONS ARE THE ADVISORY  GROUPS CAN CAN ALERT WHEN THEY  WANT TO DISCUSS SOMETHING ARE  WE COME OUT ALERT THEM WHEN WE  SEE SOMETHING THAT WE WANT TO  DISCUSS SO.  >> IT ALL DEPENDS ON HOW WE  WON WORLD MOVING FORWARD IF WE  WANTED TO BE A REGULAR PART OF  THE AGENDA RIGHT. NO  OBJECTION. BUT IF WE DON'T I  WOULD JUST PUT IT IN THE  REPORT SECTION OF THE AGENDA  TO NOT SET AN EXPECTATION THAT  WE'RE GOING TO BE DISCUSSING  THE MEMO IN THE MEETING.  >> WOULD THAT WORK. THIS WOULD  BE WE WOULD BE ABLE TO DISCUSS  IT AND THEN IF WE WANT TO TAKE  ACTION THAT WOULD HAVE TO BE.  FOR ANOTHER IF WE WERE TO PUT  IT UNDER REPORTS YET AND YES  IF WE WERE DID THE REPORT  CORRECTLY WE COULD DISCUSS IT  BUT WANT TAKE ACTION ON REPORT  AT THAT TIME, BUT COULD BE AT  LATER TODAY, OK MAKE THEY'RE  ABOUT HOW THAT GO DOWN.  COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL.  >> YEAH, I WOULD NOT BE IN  FAVOR PUTTING IT UNDER  REPORTS. THAT STAFF LIAISON  TOOK THE TIME TO COMMUNICATE  THE RECOMMENDATION OF THAT  ADVISORY BOARD TO THE  COMMISSION. IT IS NOW ON THE  AGENDA. YES, I FIRMLY BELIEVE  WE NEED TO TWEAK THE LANGUAGE  SO THAT WE CAN TALK ABOUT IT  AT THE AGENDA THAT THAT MEMO  IS PUT ON THIS WAY THEN WE CAN  EITHER. IT SEND A MEMO TO THE  ADVISORY BOARDS LIKE WE'VE  DONE IN THE PAST. THANK YOU  VERY MUCH FOR THAT  RECOMMENDATION BUT I DON'T DUE  TO BUDGET CONSTRAINTS WE  CANNOT ON THIS AT THIS TIME OR  SOMETHING TO THE EFFECT THAT  ADDRESSES THEIR RECOMMENDATION  GIVES THEM A CONCRETE ANSWER  IF WE NEED ADDITIONAL  INFORMATION TO VICE MAYOR'S  POINT. HOW WOULD THIS BE  IMPLEMENTED COULD YOU PLEASE  WORK ON THIS COULD YOU PLEASE  WORK ON THAT THEN CAN COME WE  CAN. RELAY THAT TO THEM. IT'S  A DIALOGUE, IT'S COMMUNICATION  COMMUNICATION OUR ADVISORY  BOARDS BASED ON A  RECOMMENDATION THAT THEY ARE  GIVING US AND I WILL CONCUR  WITH THE CITY ATTORNEY THAT  THE WAY THAT THIS IS WORDED ON  TODAY'S AGENDA. NO WE CANNOT  TAKE ANY ACTION. HOWEVER, I  WOULD LIKE TO SEE ALL 5 OF  THESE BROUGHT BACK AT OUR NEXT  COMMISSION MEETING SO WE CAN  ADDRESS EACH ONE OF THESE  RECOMMENDATIONS INDIVIDUALLY  AND EITHER TELL THE ADVISORY  BOARD THANK YOU VERY MUCH.  WE'RE WORKING ON THIS THAT  THAT MS. ORR THANK YOU VERY  MUCH BUT AT THIS TIME WE'RE  NOT TAKING ANY ACTION OR GIVE  THEM FURTHER DIRECTION. THAT  TO ME IS THE LEVEL OF  EXPECTATION, OUR ADVISORY  BOARDS NEED TO FEEL VALUED.  COMMISSIONER LANGDON.  >> THANK YOU JUST FOR  CLARIFICATION I WASN'T  RECOMMENDING THAT WE MOVED  DAYS TO THE REPORT SECTION. I  SIMPLY MADE THE POINT THAT IF  THIS BODY DOES NOT WANT TO  HAVE MEMOS FROM ANY OF THE  ADVISORY GROUPS ON THE AGENDA  HAVING IT ON THE AGENDA AN  EXPECTATION THAT WE'RE GOING  TO DISCUSS SO THAT WAS MY  POINT NOT THAT I'M  RECOMMENDING SHIFTING THEM I  LIKE GIVING THIS INFORMATION  PROMINENCE AND OUR AGENDA.  ALSO I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT  THAT THE ADVISORY. IT'S ALSO  KNOW HOW WE'RE GOING TO  PROCEED. SOMETIMES I I KNOW I  HAVE LAUNDRY LIST OF THINGS  BUT 2 OR 3 A REALLY IMPORTANT  SO THEY MIGHT WANT TO HAVE THE  OPPORTUNITY TO PRIORITIZE OUR  BECOME MORE SPECIFIC IN WHAT  THEY WANT TO DO OR HOW THEY  WOULD WHAT KIND OF RESPONSE  THEY WOULD THAT'S MY POINT GET  PARK. POPPY THAT. TYPICALLY  NOW THE E AB FOR SURE FACT  THAT THIS WOULD APPLY TO ALL  ADVISORY BOARDS. I ADVISE  REPORT THAT WE GOT A  RECOMMENDATION FROM THAT AND  WE HAVE HOW MANY ADVISORY  BOARD. WELL, BUT. MAYBE ABOUT  5 OF THEM DO RECOMMENDATIONS  TO MISSION. OKAY SO BUT IT  COULD BE UP TO 12 5 MINIMUM  THAT WE WOULD HAVE EVERY  MONTH. OVER THE  RECOMMENDATION.  >> AND YOU MIGHT NOT HAVE ANY  AT ALL. IT'S AN ADVISORY BOARD  FOR THE MONTH OF APRIL AND  THEY DID NOT HAVE A  RECOMMENDATION TO COMMISSION  THEM THERE WOULD NOT BE ITEM  TO DISCUSS OKAY.  >> I'M JUST TRYING TO THINK  THAT THEY JUST 6 OF.  >> THAT.  >> AND YOU WOULD SAY THIS  WOULD BE THE FIRST.

WE KNOW YOU GOT TO STICK  A ROAD PAVED, IT IS ONE PASS.  HABITAT FOR HUMANITY. ONE  HOUSE. AND AFTER THAT YOU'RE  GOING TO PAY THAT WAS SET  ASIDE BY THE COUNTY AND THE  CITY OF PORT USUALLY AGREE  THAT THAT'S AN AREA FOR THE  SCRUB JAY HABITAT, PERFECT AND  THE GOPHER TORTOISE  RELOCATIONS.

I  WANT REQUEST OF THIS  COMMISSION THAT WE BRIEFLY IN  TEMPORARILY DELAY ALLOCATION  OF FUNDS FOR THE NEW BOCA  PARK. I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS  PROJECT HAS BEEN A NUMBER OF  TIMES. I'M SURE THAT PART OF  THE REASON LOT OF THAT BUMPING  PREDATED ME OUR OUR ANYONE  WHO'S HERE TODAY EXCEPT MAYBE  FOR COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL.  THAT SOMETIMES THERE ARE OTHER  ITEMS THAT HAVE TO COME BEFORE  PARKS AND I UNDERSTAND THAT  PARKS ARE VITALLY IMPORTANT TO  QUALITY OF LIFE I GET THAT.  BUT FEELING SAFE IN YOUR  COMMUNITY IS ALSO. VERY TO  ONE'S QUALITY OF LIFE. WE HAVE  A NUMBER OF MAJOR SAFETY AND  ESSENTIAL INFRASTRUCTURE  PROJECTS. THAT ARE BEFORE US  ARE SOON TO BE BEFORE US. AND  AND WE NEED TO FIGURE OUT AS A  COMMISSION AND AS A STAFF AND  AS A CITY. HOW WE'RE GOING TO  ADDRESS THOSE THINGS. AND AS  MUCH AS I WOULD LIKE ANOTHER  PARK, ALTHOUGH I PREFER TO  HAVE ANOTHER ONE EAST OF  TOLEDO BLADE THAT'S JUST AND  AS MUCH AS I WOULD WANT  ANOTHER PARK I THINK THE CITY  FINANCIALLY NEEDS A PATH  FORWARD. AND HOW WE'RE GOING  TO AFFORD ALL OF THE THINGS I  THINK THERE WAS A A PUBLIC  COMMENT EARLIER. THAT WE THROW  OUT EVERYTHING BECAUSE OF OUR  NEED FOR POLICE HEADQUARTERS  AND I AGREE WITH THAT. I MEAN  WE WE HAVE TO BE ABLE TO WALK  INTO THE HOME AT THE SAME  TIME. WE ARE UNDER OF  SOMETHING VERY SIGNIFICANT  FINANCIAL CONSTRAINTS THAT I  FEEL WE NEED TO ADDRESS AS A  BOARD AND AND AS A COMMUNITY  BEFORE WE BUILD ANOTHER PARK.  WE CURRENTLY HAVE 29 PARKS IN  THE CITY. 29% OF OUR LAND MASS  AND THIS CITY IS CONSERVATION  PARKS AND OPEN SPACE. SO I I  DON'T. WE HAVE ENVIRONMENTAL  ISSUES WITHOUT A QUESTION WE  WE NEED MORE PARKS WITHOUT A  QUESTION. BUT IF IF WE  CONTINUE TO SPEND MONEY.  THINGS THAT AREN'T SORT OF  SAFETY SURVIVAL BANGS. WE  DON'T ADDRESS THAT FIRST AND  FIGURE OUT WHAT IS OUR PATH  FORWARD AS A CITY WE  JEOPARDIZE EVERYTHING. WE  SINCERELY JEOPARDIZE  EVERYTHING. AND I'VE SAID ON  THIS DAY BEFORE. THAT IF WE  DON'T ADDRESS THE BALANCE  BETWEEN OUR COMMERCIAL  DEVELOPMENT RESIDENTIAL  DEVELOPMENT AND OPEN SPACE  ENVIRONMENTAL PARKS  DEVELOPMENT IF WE DON'T HAVE A  HEALTHY BALANCE THERE. AND I  CAN GUARANTEE YOU AND 15 WILL  BE SELLING PARKS, MAYBE TO BE  ABLE BALANCE OUR BUDGET SO FOR  ME IT'S ALL A MATTER OF  BALANCE I'D LOVE TO A PARK  GOING IN THAT AREA WOULD LIKE  TO SEE MORE PARKS. OF TOLEDO  BLADE. BUT WE REALLY DO NEED  TO GET OUR FINANCIAL PATH  FORWARD FIGURE IT OUT. BEFORE  WE ADD ANOTHER PARK AND I HOPE  IT WOULD BE A VERY SHORT  PERIOD OF TIME THAT THAT WE  WOULD DELAY THIS BECAUSE I'D  LOVE TO SEE IT. BUT WE HAVE A  LOT OF WORK TO DO ON OUR  FINANCIAL HOUSE. COMMISSIONER  MCDOWELL. I AGREE WE NEED NEW  STATION. THERE WILL ALWAYS BE  IN NEED.  >> FOR SOME OTHER TYPE OF  INFRASTRUCTURE DOWN THE ROAD.  A FEW YEARS AGO WAS ROADS  YEARS AGO BEFORE THAT IT WAS  PERSONAL OF OUR FEW YEARS  BEFORE THAT IT WAS WATER AND  SEWER.  >> YOU CAN COME UP WITH EVERY  SINGLE THING AT THIS CITY  NEEDS AND THE FIRST THING THAT  GOES IS PARKS. MAJOR REASON  THAT PEOPLE MOVE TO PORT. IS  BECAUSE WE ARE DIFFERENT WE DO  TAKE PARKS VERY SERIOUSLY. AND  BY NO MEANS AM I SAYING THAT  PARKS ARE FAR MORE IMPORTANT  THAN THE POLICE DEPARTMENT AND  THE CRIME AND THE POLICE'S  ABILITY TO DO THEIR JOB  ABSOLUTELY NOT DO NOT PUT  WORDS IN MY MOUTH IN THAT WAY.  EVERYTHING IS IMPORTANT  EVERYTHING. THERE'S NO ONE  DEPARTMENT IN THIS CITY THAT  IS FAR MORE IMPORTANT THAN ANY  OTHER DEPARTMENT IN THE CITY  WE ARE ONE CITY. WE PROVIDE  SERVICES AS ONE CITY. WE  CANNOT KEEP. KICKING DOWN THE  CAN OF HAVING PARKS ON THE  EAST END OF TIME, YES, THIS IS  NOT QUITE TO THE EAST END OF  TOWN BUT IT'S PRETTY DARN  CLOSE. WE JUST I WAS TRYING TO  FIND WHEN WE APPROVED IT THE  ALLOCATION TO. TO GO FORWARD.  BEING ABLE TO DO THE DESIGN OF  THIS PARK WE JUST DID THAT  LIKE 2 WEEKS AGO. AND I DON'T  UNDERSTAND WHY NOW.  >> KNOWING THAT THE POLICE  DEPARTMENT NEEDS A POLICE  DEPARTMENT HEADQUARTERS. NOW  WHERE ALL THIS AND SAY NO  WE'RE NOT GOING TO DO IT AFTER  ALL. THIS $300,000 FROM THE  CIP SHE. AND WE'VE ALREADY GOT  THE MAJORITY OF THAT BUDGET. I  WOULD NOT BE IN FAVOR OF THIS  AND. I UNDERSTAND WE HAVE A  LOT OF WORK TO DO TO FIND THE  FUNDING FOR THE POLICE  DEPARTMENT. BUT EVERY SINGLE  ONE OF OUR DEPARTMENTS IN THE  CITY'S IMPORTANT.  >> AND I I. I AM VERY.  >> CAUTIOUS WHEN WE. PICK ONE  OVER THE OTHER. EVEN WHEN IT  COMES TO MY BELOVED POLICE  DEPARTMENT. BECAUSE PRETTY  SOON WE'RE GOING TO BE HAVING  THE FIRE DEPARTMENT HERE THEY  NEED IN THE OC THEY NEED A NEW  STATION 81. WE HAVE ROADS THAT  NEED TO BE REPAVED.  >> WE HAVE SOLID WASTE THAT  NEEDS A NEW TRANSFER STATION I  BEEN SAYING THESE PROJECTS FOR  MONTHS AND YEARS THAT ARE  COMING DOWN THE PIPELINE. BUT  YET EVERYBODY SAYS OH WELCOME  PARKS. WE'RE GOING TO  PARKLAND.  >> NO. WE CANNOT KEEP DOING  THAT.  >> I REST UP AND THANK YOU.  VICE MAYOR.  >> FELLOW COMMISSIONERS REALLY  MAKE SOME GOOD POINTS HERE  INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH. PEOPLE  WILL BE SURPRISED TO HEAR ME  SAY THIS. WITH WHAT WE FACE.  FROM AN INFRASTRUCTURE  STANDPOINT. FROM WHAT WE FACE  WITH REGARD TO HOW WE  APPROACH. PAYING FOR GROWTH.  TO ME. TO DRAW ALL ONLINE. AT  THIS PARK. AS COMMISSIONER  MCDOWELL SAID AFTER WE JUST.  MOVED FORWARD IN A CERTAIN  RESPECT WITH DESIGN I. I GOT  ALL OUR TIME. SAYING OK LET'S  SINGLE THIS ONE OUT LET'S DRAW  THE LINE RIGHT HERE AND SAY NO  TO THIS PARK. 300,000 NOT  POCKET CHANGE. SIGNIFICANT  AMOUNT OF MONEY BUT AT THE  SAME TIME. WE DO NEED THIS  PARK AND I DON'T BELIEVE THAT  SPENDING THIS MONEY IF WE WERE  TO SAVE IT. I DON'T BELIEVE  THAT'S LUCIAN TOO BUILDING OR  POLICE HEADQUARTERS I ALSO  DON'T THINK IT'S THE SOLUTION  TO DEALING WITH THE OTHER  INFRASTRUCTURE CHALLENGES WE  HAVE. AND THERE DOES HAVE TO  BE A BOUNCE. SO HERE WE ARE  HEARING IT FROM THE GUY WHO  PUSHES ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT  OVER EVERYTHING I WOULD SAY  THAT. IN THE VERY NEAR FUTURE  THERE IS COMING A RECKONING  WHERE ASK THE COMMISSION HAVE  TO SIT AND DISCUSS AND TALK  ABOUT AND HAD A INCLUDE OUR  COMMUNITY AND OUR CITIZENS IN  A DECISION AS TO HOW WE ARE  GOING TO ADDRESS OUR  INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDS GOING  FORWARD AND I DON'T BELIEVE  THAT SIR MAKING THIS PARK.  HILDEGARD VON IT'S THE RIGHT  THING TO DO SO I SAY. LET'S  LET'S MOVE THIS ONE IT'S  NEEDED. AND I THINK THAT THE  DISCUSSION WITH REGARD TO HOW  WE DYLAN PRIORITIZE OUR. OUR  PROJECTS, ESPECIALLY  INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS IT'S  LEFT FOR A VERY NEAR FUTURE  MEETING AND AND I THINK THAT  THAT'S GOING TO SHOW A LOT OF  LIGHT ON HOW WE ADDRESS  EVERYTHING ARE KILLERS. ARE  EQUAL IN A SENSE. WE NEED THEM  ALL TO SUSTAIN A WONDERFUL  COMMUNITY THAT PEOPLE ARE  ATTRACTED TO AND WANT TO LIVE  IT. WHEN YOU HAVE LIMITED  RESOURCES AND LIMITED ABILITY.  FINANCIALLY MANAGE. CITY A  GROWING CITIES AFFAIRS. IT  BECOMES VERY EASY TO START TO  PRIORITIZE ONE PILLAR OVER  ANOTHER AND THAT'S NOT A GOOD  THING NECESSARILY. SO  CONSEQUENTLY. I'M SUPPORTIVE  OF OF THIS PARK AND AND I  THINK WE'VE GOT SOME VERY VERY  TOUGH DISCUSSIONS. COMING UP  THAT IF YOU THINK THE POLICE  BUILDING IT'S BEEN A TOUGH  DISCUSSION. JUST WAIT AND SO.  >> THAT'S I THINK THAT YOU I  EVERAGE TO DO HAVE SOME THINK  THAT AT.  >> IT'S A GOOD CONVERSATION  SOFI I AGREE WITH EVERYBODY UP  THERE SPECIALLY VICE MAYOR. I  I AGREE THAT WE SHOULD  PROBABLY ALLOW. THIS PARK TO  GO THROUGH BUT SOMETHING TO  THINK ABOUT IN IN THE NEAR  FUTURE WITH ALL OF EVERYTHING  THAT WE'VE GOT GOING IS MAYBE  PUTTING A MORATORIUM ON CITY  SPONSORED DEVELOPMENT COMPARED  TO CAN OPEN UP THE DOOR TO.  ONE OF THE DEVELOPERS TO COME  IN AND THEY WANT TO COUPLE  ACRES OF THEIR LAND AND THEY  SAY WE WANT TO SET THIS ASIDE  FOR PARK DEVELOPMENT THAT THAT  IS ALLOWED BUT ANYTHING FROM  THE CITY AND TAXPAYER MONEY  GOING FORWARD AFTER THIS PART  WOULD BE PUT ON HOLD FOR A FEW  YEARS UNTIL WE GET OUR  INFRASTRUCTURE PUT IN PLACE  DOES THAT MAKE SENSE.  >> COMING FROM YOU YES, DOES,  DIDN'T GET OKAY, THANK YOU  VERY MUCH. ALL RIGHT I I HAD A  QUESTION BEFORE WE GO TO  SECOND ROUNDS FIGURE 300,000  DOLLARS HAS PUT OUT WHAT WE'RE  THAT. COMING FROM WHERE THOSE  FUNDS COMING FROM. AND IF  ANOTHER PARKS AND RECREATION  DIRECTOR. THE FUNDING FOR THIS  PROJECT COMES FROM PARK IMPACT  FEES AND THOSE CAN ONLY BE  USED FOR PARK PROJECTS, OKAY.  IT'S NOT COMING FROM SURTAX  CORRECT. THINK YES IT LOOKING  AT THE I NO ITCHING ARE NOT  ASKING COMMISSION THANK YOU.  AT 8, 3, 5, MEETING.  >> WE HAD A BUDGET AMENDMENT  WHERE WE WE ALLOCATE FUNDING.  IN ORDER TO AT THE PARK  MAINTENANCE AGAIN THAT'S. IT'S  ALL ABOUT BUILDING SINCE THE  HURRICANE. WE NEED TO MOVE  THAT SURTAX FUNDING TO THE  PARK MAINTENANCE TEMPORARY  BUILDING IN ORDER TO MOVE  FORWARD WITH THAT REPLACE  FUNDING WITH PARK IMPACT FEES.  SO WE'RE TRYING TO USE PARK  IMPACT FEES OR ALL OF PROJECTS  AS THEY ARE AVAILABLE.  CERTAINLY TAKE THAT INTO  CONSIDERATION. THINK ABOUT  DURING THE MORATORIUM ON PORK  PROJECTS, ONE PARK IMPACT FEES  CAN ONLY BE USED FOR PARK  PROJECTS AND GROWTH.  >> THANKS FOR CLARIFYING THAT  CITY MANAGER WE'RE LOCATED.  >> IN THE BACK OF INFORMATION  RECEIVED WAS AN OLD CIP  STATEMENT. IT HAS SURTAX  LISTED SO IT WAS JUST IT IN IN  THE PACKET OF THE BACK OF  INFORMATION. IT JUST HASN'T  BEEN UPDATED FROM THE ACTION  THAT DIRECTIVE FROM BOOK ALL  RIGHT, THANKS FOR CLARIFYING  >> CITY ATTORNEY.  >> HERE JUST A REMINDER THE  AGENDA ITEM THAT YOU  CONSIDERING RELATES TO A  SPECIFIC WORK ASSIGNMENT, EVEN  FOR A SPECIFIC PARK. IF THE  COMMISSION WANTS TO DISCUSS A  MORATORIUM ON PORK PROJECTS  ACROSS THE BOARD. WE'RE  SPECIFICALLY THAT WOULD BE TO  BE ON A FUTURE MEETING THAT'S  PROBABLY NOTICED ALL RIGHT,  THANK YOU.  >> COMMISSIONER LANGDON.  >> YES I DO HAVE A COUPLE OF  QUESTIONS TRIGGERED BY THIS  CONVERSATION ON THE OLD CIP  PROJECT LESS. DESIGN AND  ENGINEERING AS BEING $45,000.  ON THE CURRENT REQUEST THAT A  $109,000 OR ENGINEERING. SO  MAKES ME QUESTION IS ARE ALL  OBVIOUS ALL NUMBERS WHAT ARE  WE ANTICIPATING THE TOTAL COST  OF THIS PROJECT MOVING FORWARD  IF THE ENGINEERING COMPONENT  HAS GROWN FROM 45,000 TO OVER  A 100,000.  >> YES, THOSE ALL NUMBERS THAT  WERE IN AS ESTIMATES. WE DON'T  KNOW WHAT THAT BUT THAT ALL  THE COST IS GOING TO BE I  WOULD EXPECT THAT WILL  PROBABLY BE OVER 300,000.  AGAIN WE'LL BE PARK IMPACT  FEES FOR THAT IT REALLY  DEPENDS ON ON WHAT THE DESIGN  ENDS UP BEING IN FOR THIS  PARTICULAR PARK PROJECT WE'RE  LOOKING TO DO VERY I'M  PRIMARILY A PASSIVE PARK.  TRAILS PLAYGROUND WOULD BE THE  MOST ACTIVE PORTION OF IT. AND  DOING LOW FLORIDA FRIENDLY  LANDSCAPING THINGS THAT WE CAN  DO TO REDUCE THE COST  ASSOCIATED WITH THIS PART.  >> I HAVE ANOTHER ONCE WE  BUILD A NEW PARK. WHERE DOES  THE MONEY COME FROM TO  MAINTAIN THAT PARK IN THE CAR  AND GOING PRICE OF REPLACE  THING SO FOR JONES ON GYM  EQUIPMENT, IT'S ABOUT  $30400,000 CORRECT.  >> ALL ABOUT 10 YEARS  SOMETIMES RIGHT CLOSER TO 12  YEARS THERE AREN'T REPLACEMENT  WE ESTIMATE THAT THE FOR THIS  PARK ANNUALLY MONTHLY WOULD BE  ♪ ABOUT $560 A-MONTH CONTRACT.  IT OUT. $6,700 MAINTAIN AGAIN  WE'RE LOOKING AT SOMETHING  THAT NOT REQUIRE A LOT OF  MOWING. MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES  BUT THAT DOES THOSE FIGURES  DON'T INCLUDE THE MAINTENANCE  OF ANY STRUCTURES ARE OTHER  KINDS OF EQUIPMENT THAT ARE ON  THAT PROPERTY. IT DOES NOT  INCLUDE A CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT  PROGRAM REPLACEMENT. BUT THAT  ♪ DOES INCLUDE.  >> E.  >> WEEKLY MAINTENANCE THAT WE  WOULD HAVE AT THE PARK. IF WE  WERE TO LOAD THE MONTHLY COST.  BUT SO DID THE ANNUALIZED COST  OF TOTAL MAINTENANCE THAT  WOULD BE ABOUT 25. $1000 A  YEAR. TO SORT OF ALLOCATE  MONEY TO REPLACE THE JUNGLE  GYM EQUIPMENT IF WE'RE ON A 10  YEAR SCHEDULE. I'M JUST TRYING  TO DO QUICK BACK OF THE I  THINK IT'S IMPORTANT. THE  REASON I'M I'M KIND OF  DRILLING DOWN ON THIS AND  EVERYTHING HAS AN ONGOING  COST. AND. THIS CITY HAS DONE  AN OUTSTANDING JOB AND OUR  STAFF IN PARKS AND REC HAS  DONE AN OUTSTANDING JOB OF  CREATING AND MAINTAINING OUR  PARKS. WE HAVE SOME REALLY  REALLY SERIOUS CONVERSATIONS  HEAD OF US IN THE NEAR TERM.  ABOUT HOW THIS CITY AND THAT  SUSPECT TOO FUND ITS GROWTH  REALLY SERIOUS CONVERSATIONS  ABOUT THAT. AND I I THINK IT'S  IMPORTANT FOR US TO  DEMONSTRATE. TO THE ENTIRE  COMMUNITY THAT WE'RE REALLY  SERIOUS. ABOUT GETTING SERIOUS  WITH THESE BIGGER ISSUES. AND  ALTHOUGH THIS SEEMS LIKE A  SMALL AND I DON'T WANT TO PICK  ON WE DO HAVE 29 PARKS, WE  HAVE WONDERFUL RECREATIONAL  ASSETS IN THIS CITY. THE  COMMUNITY AND I DON'T THINK OF  FEW MONTHS AWAY. IT'S GOING TO  DRAMATICALLY. CURRENT THIS  PROJECT I MEAN I DEFINITELY  SEE IT GOING FORWARD, I  UNDERSTAND ABOUT THE IMPACT  FEES AND THEY HAVE TO BE IF  THOSE IMPACT FEES HAVE TO BE  SPENT ON NET NEW. THINGS.  >> I JUST PERSONALLY KNOWING  THE CONVERSATIONS THAT WILL BE  COMING BEFORE US AND THE NEXT  FEW MONTHS. FEEL THAT I WAS  RESPONSIBLE. AND APPROVING  THIS MONEY NOT BEING WILLING  JUST DELAY AT. UNTIL WE HAVE  AN OPPORTUNITY TO TALK ABOUT A  PATH FORWARD FOR ALL OF OUR  SPENDING. BECAUSE THESE ARE  NOT GOING TO BE EASY  CONVERSATIONS AND I THINK IT'S  IMPORTANT THAT WE SIGNAL TO  ALL OF US THAT WE'RE REALLY  SERIOUS ABOUT SOLVING THAT  PROBLEM SOLVED AND ABOUT MY  SOAP BOX AND.  >> THANK YOU COMMISSIONER  MCDOWELL YOU READY FOR A  MOTION. I'M NOT QUITE HAVE A  FOLLOW-UP QUESTION AND IT'S  OKAY. ALL RIGHT, FOR CITIZEN  UNDERSTANDING. I KNOW THE  ANSWER. COULD YOU PLEASE TELL  ME AND WE USE PARK IMPACT TO  HELP BUILD THE POLICE STATION.  THAT EVERS AVERAGE.  >> SECOND. YES, THE ONE  QUESTION THAT I HAD I WAS  HOPE. COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL  WOULD SHE WAS CLOSE ON THE  IMPACT SCENES. BE USED DOWN  THE ROAD IS IT JUST  SPECIFICALLY FOR NEW  INSTALLATION OF PARKS ARE  TENET IMPACT FEES BE USED FOR  MAINTENANCE REFURBISHMENT AND  REPLACEMENT EQUIPMENT BECAUSE  THE GRILLS IF WE HAVE 5,000  PEOPLE THAT USE DALLAS WHITE  PARK AND THEN WE'VE GROWN NOW  WE'VE GOT 10,000. THE  EQUIPMENT STARTS TO WEAR OUT  SO CAN THOSE FEES BE USED TO  MAINTAIN THE EXISTING PARKS  THAT WE HAVE.  >> I LIKE THE WAY YOU YOU KNOW  IT IT CANNOT IT HAS TO BE  ASSOCIATED WITH GROWTH  >> INITIAL IMPACT.  >> YES, NEW PARK. YES, PARK  AREA. CORRECT.  >> OKAY THAT MAKES MUCH JUST  WANTED THAT PUT OUT THERE SO  LET'S WE DON'T BUILD NEW  PARKS, WE CAN'T USE THOSE  FUNDS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.  >> BUT THERE IS AN IMPACT ON  THE GENERAL FUND TO MAINTAIN  WHAT WE BUILD. WE NEED TO KEEP  THAT IN MIND.  >> OK THANK YOU. COMMISSIONER  MCDOWELL.  >> THE PARKS THAT WE HAD TO  REPLACE EQUIPMENT FOR MOST  RECENTLY, DALLAS WHITE  PLAYGROUND. I'M KIRK PARK  PLAYGROUND DID WE NOT GET A  GRANT FOR. A PORTION OF THAT  COST IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY.  IT WAS A FIFTY-FIFTY MATCHING  GRANT.  >> IT CURRENT PARK PLAYGROUND  WAS THROUGH A COMMUNITY  DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT AND  FALL IN BUT WE DO HAVE TO  BUDGET FOR THE PROJECT JUST  AND THEN WE ARE REIMBURSED FOR  THE COST. DALLAS WHITE PARK WE  RECEIVED A 10,000 DONATION.  $1000 DONATION NORTH PARK ON  PORTS THAT PARK. SO IF THE  PARKS ARE IN AREA OF THE  COMMUNITY THAT QUALIFIES FOR  CDBG GRANT WE WILL APPLY FOR  THAT. THANK YOU.  >> OKAY AND NOT SAYING  ANYTHING ELSE IN THE 2 DO WE  HAVE ANY PUBLIC COMMENT YES WE  DO. I SUPPORT THE WORK  ASSIGNMENT, NUMBERED.  >> 2024 DASH 0, 5 FOR OVER A  DECADE. WE HAVE DECIDED TO  HAVE A COMMUNITY PARK IN THIS  LOCATION. THE PROJECT IS BEING  PROPERLY STATEMENT PLAN ACT  UPON THE WISHES OF THIS  NEIGHBORHOOD AS CURRENTLY ON.  UNDERSERVED PARKS AND  RECREATION ARE THE BEST WAY TO  PROVIDE A FAIRLY AFFORDABLE  QUALITY OF LIFE TO OUR  CITIZENS ACCESS TO PARKS NEEDS  TO BE EVENLY SPREAD ACROSS THE  CITY TO MAKE IT READILY  AVAILABLE TO NEIGHBORHOOD. AT  THE CITY OUR DESIRE HAS BEEN  TO BALANCING ENTITIES  THROUGHOUT THE CITY CREATING A  SENSE OF PLACE IN CLOSE  PROXIMITY TO NEIGHBORHOODS.  THIS PROJECT IS A REFLECTION  OF THOSE GOALS AND WOULD  DEMONSTRATE TO THE CITIZENS  THAT WE CARE ABOUT THEM AND  WHERE THEY LIVE ONE  NEIGHBORHOOD IS JUST AS  IMPORTANT AS ANY OTHER PERSON  WE HAVE JOHN MARK.

RIGHT THAT'S ONE  PERSON CAN MAKE CONNECTION TO  IS THAT FOR SPRING ON 41.  WITHOUT LOOKING AT THE PLANS.  BUT THAT'S NOT.  >> I KNOW THAT'S WHAT I WAS  TRYING TO GET TO IS WHERE THE  CUP WOULD BE BECAUSE WE HAVE A  LOT OF BUSINESSES DOWN ON 41  THAT ARE LOOKING FOR WATER AND  SEWER AS WELL. COMING OR AREA  NORTH. AND IF THEY WERE JUST  TO SHOOT OVER TOO. THAT THE  ESTABLISHMENT THAT WE HAVE  GONE UP TO WEST VILLAGES. YOU  KNOW THAT THAT'S ALL I WANT TO  KNOW IS WHERE THEY WERE GOING  TO HOOK UP AND TO MAKE SURE  THAT THEY WERE RESPONSIBLE FOR  PAYING FOR ALL THOSE HOOKUPS  BECAUSE WE'RE LOOKING AT  MILLIONS OF DOLLARS THE WAR  PRESENCE AND AND I'M NOT ABOUT  TO GIVE AWAY UTILITIES TO  ANYBODY ELSE WORK INTO CITIES  NOT GETTING THEMSELVES. SO  THAT'S WHAT I'M NOT ON US SO I  JUST WANT KNOW WHERE THEY  WOULD HOOK UP AND AND THAT  THEY WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR  ALL OF SO YESTERDAY MY  QUESTIONS THANK YOU.  >> THE CITY MANAGER. THANK YOU  MADAM CHAIR, I BELIEVE THAT  COMMISSIONER LANGDON WAS  TALKING ABOUT THE POLICE  SERVICES THAT WE PROVIDE THAT  AREA. WE'LL PROVIDE SERVICES  IF REQUESTED THROUGH THE  SHERIFF THAT UNINCORPORATED  AREA.  >> MAY I ASK A RELATED  QUESTION. RECENTLY THERE WAS A  FIRE. AND ONE OF THE ROOMS AT  THAT HOTEL. WHAT FIRE SERVICE  RESPONDED TO THAT INCIDENT.  TITANS ON THE ROAD. THAT PART  WE HAVE A MUTUAL AID YOU  SHOULDN'T AND THAT AREA FUND  ALSO UNDER AN AUTOMATIC AID.  SO ALTHOUGH IT IS SPECIAL  COUNTY'S FIRST RESPONSE AREA.  WHEN THERE IS A FIRE THAT  COMES IN THAT AREA WE'RE BOTH  DISPATCHED SAME TIME WE BOTH  WE GOT THEIR SON. USUALLY DO  RIGHT, SO MY POINT.  >> ANOTHER RELATED QUESTION  AND THIS IS PROBABLY FOR  CHIEF. THE PERSON. AND I DON'T  KNOW WHAT HAPPENED  SUBSEQUENTLY, BUT THE PERSON  THOUGHT TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR  THAT FIRE LAND. AND AND WAS  RUNNING AROUND THE CITY  SOMEWHERE WHICH POLICE  DEPARTMENT APPREHENDED PURSUED  AND APPREHENDED THAT PERSON. I  DON'T HAVE THE ANSWER TO  >> THAT THAT BUT IT MAY HAVE  BEEN WITH THE FIRE WOULD HAVE  BEEN INVESTIGATED BY THE  SHERIFF AND STATE FIRE  MARSHAL'S OFFICE. SO WE MAY  HAVE ASSISTED AFTER THE BAD  GUY BUT.  >> I THINK I READ IN THE PAPER  IT WAS LESS ONLY BRING ENOUGH  AND I KNOW WE HAVE MUTUAL AID  AGREEMENTS AND AND THERE WE  NEED TO HAVE THEM. BUT I I  JUST WANT PEOPLE TO BE AWARE  THAT FROM A PRACTICAL POINT OF  VIEW. THIS CITY SPENDS MONEY  AND RESOURCES. PROTECTING THAT  AREA. MY ONLY POINT. I KNOW  WERE AWESOME AND I'M SURE WE  WOULD HAVE FOR US BUT PLENTY  OF TIME TO SPARE.  ♪ >> IN FAIRNESS. SAY WE ARE A  LITTLE BIT COACH.  ♪ >> A OKAY I I SPENT.  >> YOU KNOW WHETHER OR NOT  THIS THIS PARTICULAR PROJECT  IT'S AN EXTENT OR NOT.  >> OR.  >> PUBLICATION TO PROVIDE  SAFETY WHETHER IT BE A POLICE  STATE YOU'RE A FIRE RESCUE  NATURE GOATS NOT WITHSTANDING  SO THAT'S NOT TO GERMANE TO  THIS I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THIS  CHART COMEBACK UP AGAIN TO THE  FINANCE I SLEPT MORE QUESTIONS  ABOUT THE FUN AND SO WHEN  FINISHED. CONVERSING.  >> I'M NOT QUESTIONING THAT  PLAY WE NEED TO BE HOW WE  SPEND OUR RESOURCES. ALL  RIGHT.  >> COURSE, THE GOVERNMENT  SERVICES 2 '07. JUST.  >> CAN I GET AN EXPLANATION  JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS  LINE OR A DIRECTOR OF  DEVELOPMENT SERVICES.  >> THESE 2 CAUGHT IT. TO GIVE  YOU A LITTLE BIT OF  BACKGROUND. THIS MODEL WAS  THIS FISCAL IMPACT MODEL. WAS  DONE SEVERAL YEARS AGO  APPARENTLY WE'RE NOT REAL SURE  WHAT ALL IS IN HERE WHERE  WE'RE LOOKING TO UPDATE THIS  MODEL THIS NEXT FISCAL YEAR.  THESE COST THAT ARE SHOWING IN  THE NEGATIVE. IT APPEARS THAT  THESE COSTS DO NOT TAKE INTO  ACCOUNT. THE CONCURRENCY  REVIEW PROCESS THAT'S WHERE WE  WOULD RECOUP THESE COSTS OR  CAPTURE THESE COSTS BECAUSE.  >> DEVELOPER FOR INSTANCE, THE  COST OF UTILITY SERVICES THAT  CONNECTION. SO WE'RE NOT  PAYING FOR THAT THE DEVELOPER  WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR THAT OF  THE PROPERTY OWNER WILL HAVE  TO PAY FOR THAT AT THE TIME.  THAT THEY'RE THEY'RE BROUGHT  IN REZONED WE WILL PUT THEM  THROUGH THE CAN SEE PROCESS  AND THAT'S WHEN THEY WILL HAVE  TO PROVIDE THE COST OF THOSE  SERVICES CITY IS NOT PAYING  THAT. BUT THIS FINANCIAL MODEL  IS NOT ACCOUNTING FOR THAT.  AND THAT'S ONE OF THE THINGS  THAT WE NEED TO LOOK AT WHEN  WE UPDATED IT IS TO ENSURE  THAT THOSE CONCURRENCY COSTS  ARE PUT BACK ON. DEVELOPER AT  THIS POINT WHAT IT SHOWS US  THAT SO IS THAT WHEN WE DO OUR  CONCURRENCY REVIEW WE SHOULD  BE BASED ON THIS CALCULATION  THIS IS BALLPARK NUMBER THAT  WE'RE GOING TO BE LOOKING AT.  IN THAT CAN CURRENCY FOR THE  DEVELOPER OR FOR THE PROPERTY  OWNER COSTS.  >> SO MY ONLY QUESTION IS IF.  >> WE'RE BEING ASKED TO VOTE  ON A.  >> YOU KNOW FIRST READING.  SHOULD NOT THIS IMPACT REPORT  BE CORRECT. BEFORE WE MAKE  THAT DECISION OR IS IT  IRRELEVANT.  >> FROM AN TO BE PERFECTLY  HONEST I THINK THIS IMPACT  REPORT IS IS PRETTY  IRRELEVANT. ISSUES WITH THE  WAY IT RUNS TO BEGIN WITH AND  AND NOT AND NOT HAVING THE  BACKGROUND ON THE INPUTS AND  ASSUMPTIONS THAT WERE PUT INTO  THIS MODEL. I WE WE HAVE SOME  ISSUES WITH THAT AND THE FACT  THAT. IT DOES NOT TAKE INTO  ACCOUNT OUR CONCURRENCY  PROCESS WHICH SHOULD BE A ON  ALL FINANCIAL MODELS.  >> BUT THAT SAID STAFF US  QUITE CERTAIN THAT LIKE. THE  ANNEXATION OF THIS PIECE OF  PROPERTY. IT'S GOING RESULT IN  A NET POSITIVE FOR OUR CITY  AND NOT A NET NEGATIVE. THIS  IS NOT GOING TO COST SOME  MONEY FROM A GUY LIKE WANT  EXTEND IT AND CORRECT BECAUSE  WE ARE BECAUSE HE SAID HE IS  NOT GOING TO PAY THOSE COSTS  AS THE IT THAT WILL BE PUT ON  THE PART THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO  OKAY COOL. THANK YOU VERY  MUCH.  >> UN YOU ASK THE QUESTION I  WAS GOING TO ASK THEM THIS IS  NOT GOING TO COST THE CITY  ANYTHING I SAID A QUESTION  ABOUT THAT TAX THOUGH IS THAT  RELEVANT TO THIS THAT THAT  HOTELS AND MOTELS PAY A BED  TAX SOMETHING. I DON'T  REMEMBER HOW THAT GETS  DISTRIBUTED IF IT THAT TAXES  COLLECTED IN THAT CERTAIN  AREA. BECAUSE WE JUST HAVE  THIS WOULD ADD TO THAT NOT  REALLY SURE HOW THAT WOULD. I  A LOOK INTO OK THANK YOU.  BECAUSE I ALSO KNOW THAT THE  COUNTIES DISTRIBUTES TO  DEVELOPING TAXES OR SOMETHING  LIKE THAT AND I THINK IT ARE  PARTLY WHAT YOU'RE COLLECTING  AND THAT I KNOW WE'VE HAD  DISCUSSIONS BEFORE ABOUT SINCE  WE DON'T HAVE A LOT OF HOTELS  AND MOTELS LIKE THE CITY OF  SARASOTA WE WERE NOT.  >> AM I RIGHT THAT THAT I ON  THE RIGHT TRACK.  >> THAT FORMULA HAS FIGURED  OUT HOW THEY'RE GOING TO  DISTRIBUTE THE MONEY IT'S  SPENDING ON WHO COLLECTS THE  MAJORITY OF THAT MONEY. MAYBE  FOR NEXT TIME FIGURE LET'S  FIND OUT WHAT THERE'S A  SEPARATE THAT TAXES. IT'S  ALREADY BEEN STATED THIS IS  KIND OF NOT UP-TO-DATE THIS.  ALL RIGHT LET'S GO NOW TO MAY  BE THAT TAX COULD BE ADDED ON  TO THAT BUT THAT WOULD BRING.  MANAGER DID YOU WANT HAVE  SOMETHING TO SAY ON THAT.  >> ALSO THE CASE IN THE WAR  RATIO THIS PERSON THAT COMES  BACK TO US FOR THAT GOT RIGHT  THAT WAS USED TO PARTIALLY  FUND NBA. THOSE DOLLARS.  THAT'S YEAH.  >> OKAY WHAT DO WE HAVE  COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL YEAH,  I'M JUST 2 POINTS OF.  >> REGARDING THIS FINANCIAL  ANALYSIS. IT WAS MY  UNDERSTANDING THIS FINANCIAL  ANALYSIS HAS BEEN UPDATED. IF  IT NEEDS TO GO THROUGH ANOTHER  REITERATION I HOPE IT WILL GET  MUCH MORE SCRUTINY THAN THE  LOOK OVER. I WILL FULLY  SUPPORT TO THE ANNEXATION OF  THIS PROPERTY INTO THE CITY. I  DO HOPE WE GET IN  CLARIFICATION ABOUT THE BED  TAX FOR SECOND READING. THIS  IS HOW WE HELP INCREASE OUR  TAX BASE IN THE CITY BY  ANNEXING THESE PROPERTIES  ALONG 41 THAT I BEEN  SUGGESTING IN COMMENTING ON  SINCE WE OVER YEAR WHEN HAD  THE REZONE COMING BEFORE US.  SO YES, THIS IS A ONE WAY OF  INCREASING THAT TAX BASE AND I  LOOK FORWARD TO MANY MORE  BEING ANNEXED INTO THE CITY.  THERE'S NOTHING ELSE. I'LL BE  HAPPY MAKE MOTION AFTER PUBLIC  COMMENT OR WRITE SO  COMMISSIONERS COME OK.  >> DO WE HAVE PUBLIC COMMENT.  ALL  >> I'M GOING TO QUESTION GO IS  HOPING YOU WOULD SPEAK UP IF  YOU HAD SOMETHING.  >> ABSOLUTELY I WON'T LEAVE  YOU IMPACT REPORT 9 OH IT'S SO  RELEVANT OR WHAT EVERYBODY  SAYING THAT A 175,000 OVER.  >> OVER THE 10 YEAR PERIOD IS  THAT CALCULATED JUST BY TAXES  OR IS THAT CALCULATED USING.  POSSIBLE WATER USAGE IS WELL  BECAUSE THAT WOULD BE A  BENEFIT TO CITY AS INCOME WITH  THEIR WATER BILL ON TOP OF ALL  TAXES EVERYTHING ELSE SO I  DON'T KNOW IF THAT WAS  INCLUDED OR  >> WELL IT DOES  >> UTILITY REVENUES. SO I  ASSUME THAT MAY BE. COST OF  SERVICE.  >> OKAY BECAUSE I CAN'T READ  IT ON THE REPORT FROM THE  COMPUTER THAT I'M AT IS JUST  VERY TINY. SO THAT'S WHY I  ASKED IT DID INCLUDE UTILITY  BILLS WHICH I THINK WILL IT  MIGHT THAT NUMBER MAY CHANGE  BECAUSE IT MAKE MAYBE A LITTLE  BIT HIGHER. SO THAT'S WHY I  WANT TO CHECK. I HAD THANK  YOU. OKAY. ANY MANAGER.  >> JUST ONE MORE QUICK  ADDITION, MADAM EVENT ACTUALLY  REFERENCES CULTURE IT'S A  TOURIST TAXES OF COUNTY  REVENUE THAT WE DO NOT GET DO  A PLAY STRUCTURE, OKAY.

IT IS  GOAL. BASED UPON LESSONS  LEARNED FROM OUR STAFF AND  FROM OTHERS THAT WE TALKED TO  ABOUT AS RECOVERED EMERGENCY  EXPERIENCE WE DID REVIEW THE  DOCUMENT FEMA STANDARDS FOR  EXAMPLE FOR PLANNING.  PREPAREDNESS DISASTER RECOVERY  AND THE LIKE WE ALSO LOOK THE  TRAINING EXERCISES AND FEDERAL  GUIDANCE FROM SERIES OF  DOCUMENTS WHICH ARE LISTED  THERE. SO THAT WE HAVE A  ROUNDED APPROACH TO. BIG  PREPARED EXTENSIVELY FOR  FURTHER DAMAGE SHOULD  SOMETHING OCCUR IN THE FUTURE.  WE DID EXTENSIVE OUTREACH  WITH NORTH PORT PERSONNEL WITH  SURVEYS AS WELL AS INTERVIEWS  WE DID TO QUESTIONNAIRES I  BELIEVE WE INTERVIEWED VARIOUS  DEPARTMENT NEEDS AND PERSONNEL  AND WE'VE DOCUMENTED ALL OF  AFTER ACTION COMMENTARY  COORDINATION AND THE LIKE WE  LOOK FOR TRENDS AND PATTERNS  AND SOME OF THE COMMENTARY AND  LOOK FOR OPPORTUNITIES FOR  IMPROVEMENT GROWTH. THERE WAS  STRONG COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AS  WELL. THERE WERE MULTIPLE  MEETINGS WITH THE TRINITY  WARMEST DON'T WANT TO ALLOW  FOR THE MOST ROBUST ATTENDANTS  AND ONE DONE IN PERSON. AND WE  CREATED THIS DRESS STRATEGY  WHICH WAS REVIEWED BY YOUR  DEPARTMENTS AS WELL AS  EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AND I  BELIEVE WOULD CORRECT. SO  MAJOR STRESS THAT WE FOUND  FIRST FOREMOST LET'S TALK  ABOUT THAT. PERSONAL OPINION  IS THAT THE CITY OF NORTH PORT  ACTUAL JOB IN RECOVERY FROM  HURRICANE IAN. IT IS NOT USUAL  FOR GEORGE DICTION TO HAVE A  CATEGORY 5 STORM HIT. AND BE  ABLE TO EFFECTIVELY COVER AT  LEAST CORE ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS  WITHIN A FEW DAYS TO A FEW  WEEKS. BUT THERE'S ALWAYS  OBVIOUSLY OPPORTUNITIES FOR  IMPROVEMENT. THE CITY OF GRACE  AND ORGANIZED RESPONSE  RECOVERY PROTE THAT FOCUSED ON  THEM THAN I SEE YES YOU  FOLLOWED YOUR 2019 PLAN FOR  EMERGENCIES. WITH TEMP WISH  TENSION OF IMPLEMENTING  GOVERNMENTAL STRUCTURES FOR  THE CITY THAT INCLUDED NICE  YES STRUCTURED COORDINATION  EVEN SFC WORKING WITH YOUR  AGENCIES OBVIOUSLY THERE WERE  SOME DOWNFALLS CONCERNS AND  SOME OF THOSE REALLY  SURROUNDED. THE UNEXPECTED  LOSS COMPLETE WE OF  COMMUNICATIONS AND DEVELOPMENT  ROLES RESPONSIBILITIES,  EMERGENCY WERE CLEARLY  DESCRIBED IN THE 2019  DOCUMENT. THE CITY OF NORTH  PORT SET SPECIFIC NAMES AN  ISIS TRAINING REQUIREMENTS FOR  MANAGERS AND SUPERVISORS  EITHER OVER GOOD STRESS,  POSITIVE THINGS THAT WE  BELIEVE WHAT TO POSITIVE  OUTCOME. STUDY STAFF INDICATED  THEY WERE THERE ARE SEARED  COMMUNICATION AND COORDINATION  ISSUES BETWEEN THE CITY THOUGH  AND SARASOTA COUNTY. WE  DOCUMENTED THOSE IN  COORDINATION AND BUILD SOME  STRESS AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR  US TO WORK. MORE COHESIVELY  TOGETHER ALTHOUGH THE CITY  ALREADY HAS A DISASTER PLAN IN  PLACE EFFORTS CAN BE MADE TO  UPDATE AND ENHANCE THE CITY'S  EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLANS  POLICIES AND PROCEDURES AS YOU  WOULD EXPECT AFTER AN IT'S A  GOOD OPPORTUNITY TO LOOK AND  SEE WHAT WORKED AND WHAT  DIDN'T COULD BE MORE ROBUST  AND SO WE DID THAT. THE THIS  DOCUMENT FOCUSES ON LIMITED  RESOURCES FOR UNMET HUMAN NEED  SUCH A SHELTER RECOVERY  CENTER'S TRANSITIONAL HOUSING  DISASTER MENTAL SERVICES, SOME  OF THESE NOTABLE GAPS. WE'RE  WE'RE FIGURE EXPLORED DURING  THE PLANNING PROCESS AND WE  UNDERSTAND THAT THERE WAS  MUCH. TO BE SAID ABOUT  COORDINATION BETWEEN THE  COUNTY AND WHO IS PROVIDING  WHAT SERVICE AND THAT'S AN  IMPORTANT CONVERSATION THAT  SHOULD CONTINUE. HE STOPS YOUR  MUTUAL AID AGREEMENTS IS  CRITICAL FOR RESPONSE OR  RECOVERY OPERATIONS. THE  IMPACT OF HURRICANE SHOWED  THAT THE CITY. COULD BE ABLE  TO WIDESPREAD AND VERY  DISASTER AFFECTING MULTIPLE  NEIGHBORHOODS AND COMMUNITIES.  STAKEHOLDERS INDICATED THAT  SOME CASES CHALLENGES OF ROSE  REGARDING AGREEMENTS SUCH AS A  MUTUAL AID AGREEMENTS FOR  INSPECTORS, CHRIS BUILDING  INSPECTORS ARE VERY HARD TO  FIND. THE WATER BECAUSE OF THE  IMPACT OF THE AREA WIDE SPREAD  ACROSS THE STATE. WIDESPREAD  FLOODING THROUGHOUT THE CITY  DURING HURRICANE IAN ALSO  SHOWED THE NEED TO IMPROVE  EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE FOR  BETTER RESILIENCY. THERE ARE  MAJOR STRESS THAT WE FOUND AND  HE IS SEEING AND RESOURCE  MANAGEMENT SUCH AS THE C G MP  FOR NORTHPOINT DID APPOINT AN  EMERGENCY MANAGER THROUGH CITY  MANAGER AND IS SEPARATE FROM  THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. TRAINING  EXERCISES ARE COORDINATED  THROUGH EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT  INVOLVE CITY COMMISSIONERS AS  WELL AS DEPARTMENT  STAKEHOLDERS. THE CITY  OF NORTH PORT HAS ESTABLISHED  NYCES PROTOCOLS WITHIN  DOCUMENT. THE PLANNING  DOCUMENT IT FOR CLEAR ROLES  RESPONSIBILITIES AND  PERSONNEL. IT WAS DISCOVERED  THAT THE CITY OF NORTH PORT  DID NOT HAVE AN INDEPENDENT  EMERGENCY OPERATION CENTER. 4  FACILITY FOR IOS AND THE  EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT OPERATION  WITHIN CITY HALL WAS AFFECTIVE  UNTIL UTILITY AND  INFRASTRUCTURE AT  ♪ CITY HALL SUBSTANTIALLY  IMPACTED BY THE HURRICANE. THE  CITY FOUND GAPS IN FLAMES  POLICIES AND  ♪ PROCEDURES RELATING TO  RESOURCE MANAGEMENT DURING THE  HURRICANE. AND RESPONSE  RECOVERY EFFORTS. AND SOME OF  THOSE MORE DETAILED DOCUMENT  BUT WE WANTED TO GIVE YOU AN  OVERVIEW TODAY DURING OUR  DISCUSSIONS. RECOMMENDATIONS  FOR RESOURCE MANAGEMENT AND  FOR IS SAY THE CITY OF NORTH  PORT SHOULD MAKE A HIGH  PRIORITY TO ESTABLISH YOU SEE  WITHIN THE CITY LIMITS BUT  SEPARATE FROM CITY HALL. THE  FIRE DEPARTMENT OR LAW  ENFORCEMENT THIS WILL ALLOW  EMERGENCY MEDICAL PERSONNEL  OPERATE INDEPENDENTLY FROM  OTHER CITY DEPARTMENTS AND  STAKEHOLDERS IT ALSO WILL  ALLOW THOSE DEPARTMENTS TO  OPERATE AND FUNCTION WITHOUT.  OF CONFUSION IN COORDINATION  ALL I TRYING TO BE PLAYED NOW  IT'S A AND YOU DON'T WANT  EVERYONE CONGREGATING IN ONE  PLACE AND THEN LEADING  CONFUSION INTO ROLES AND  RESPONSIBILITIES. THE CITY CAN  WORK TO ENHANCE AND IMPROVE  RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PROCEDURES  FOR EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS  MITIGATION RESPONSE RECOVERY  OPERATIONS AND THE CITY  SHOULD. PRIORITIZE CENTRAL IS  UP IS THE OPERATIONS AND  FURTHER DEFYING ADDITIONAL  ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES FOR  STAFFING AND POOR NATION IN  THAT IS YOU CAN STILL HAVE AN  ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE  CREATED CHALLENGES IN RESPONSE  TO RECOVERY ANY TIME THEIR OWN  EMERGENCY OPERATIONS ON TOP  OF. THE CITY'S IS SAY AND LED  TO SOME CONFUSION AND TO BE  QUICK IT WASN'T VALUABLE. IT  WAS VALUABLE FOR A WHEN  COMMUNICATIONS WHAT NOW ONE  TECH COMMUNICATIONS ARE  ESTABLISHED THERE SHOULD BE A  CENTRALIZED COORDINATION POINT  SO INFORMED DECISION-MAKING  CAN OCCUR. MAJOR STRESSED  EMERGENCY COMMUNICATION  CITY NORTH PORT RECEIVED  RECENTLY PARTNERED WITH A  RADIO STATION TO ALLOW  EMERGENCY BROADCAST. THAT'S  VERY URGENCY BROADCAST  INFORMATION IS PARAMOUNT. IT  IS A ANOTHER AVENUE, ANOTHER  TOUCH POINT SHOULD  COMMUNICATIONS SUCH AS  CELLULAR SERVICE GO OUT. IT  ALLOWS RESIDENTS TO BE  INFORMED AND HELPS RESIDENTS  TO BE INFORMED ON HOW WHAT  EXPECTATIONS ARE FOR THEM AND  HOW DISASTER RECOVERY CAN  OCCUR. USE OF COMMON LANGUAGE  AND TERMINOLOGY TO AVOID  CONFUSION WILL MULTIPLE  AGENCIES ARE COOPERATING IS IN  THE CEO OF DAY. THE FIRE  DEPARTMENT LAW ENFORCEMENT  SOME PUBLIC WORKS. OPERATED  WITHIN BIGGER TRUCK RADIOS TO  HELP IMPROVE COMMUNICATIONS  DURING THE INCIDENT AND NORTH  PORT HAS FIRED. 2 SATELLITE  PHONES. WE WERE TOLD IN THE  EVENT OF A CATASTROPHIC TO  OCCASION AND SARASOTA COUNTIES  YOU SEE HAS SATELLITE PHONES  AVAILABLE FOR USE AS WELL.  THAT IS A GOOD ALTERNATE OR  COMMIT COMMUNICATIONS CELL  TOWERS AND WEEK. GO  RECOMMENDATIONS AND USE THE  RESOURCE MANAGEMENT INCLUDED  THE CITY WOULD BENEFIT FROM  DEVELOPING A FORMALIZED  COMMUNICATIONS GROUP. SOMEONE  AND L TO BE WITHIN THE GROUP  DURING A DISASTER THAT CAN  OPERATE. AND FOCUS ON  EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS BOTH  INTERNAL COMMUNICATIONS AS  WELL AS EXTERNAL TO THE  PUBLIC. I UNDERSTAND YOU HAVE  A GOOD WORKING COMMUNICATIONS  GROUP THAT PROVED FORM  TOGETHER. DURING THE DISASTER  AND WHAT IT NEEDS TO BE A  PRIORITY THAT THEY HAVE A ROLE  RESPONSIBILITY THEY CAN PLAN  FOR AN EXERCISE. THE LAW ALSO  CELLULAR RADIO POWER EMERGENCY  COMMUNICATIONS WAS A SERIOUS  100 ENDURANCE IN HURRICANE  IAN. THE CITY NEEDS TO MAKE  IMPROVEMENTS SO IT'S KIND OF  CAPABILITIES AND MAINTAIN  COMMUNICATIONS. ITS KEY  STAKEHOLDERS DECISION MAKERS  AND THE PUBLIC TO MEET THE  NEEDS THAT ARE BEING PRESENTED  BY THE DISASTER AND ALSO TO  SHARE SITUATIONAL AWARENESS.  SO THAT PARTIES INVOLVED IN  DISASTER RESPONSE AND RECOVERY  HAVE THE SAME COMMON OPERATING  PICTURE. AND THE INFORMATION  IS CONSISTENTLY FLOWING FOR  EFFECTIVE DECISION MAKING.  FEEDBACK RECEIVED FROM  RESIDENTS INDICATED THAT  IMPROVEMENTS SHOULD BE MADE IN  COMMUNICATE EMERGENCY  INFORMATION TO THE PUBLIC.  ROAD CLOSURES EVACUATIONS  STORM CONDITIONS DISASTER  RECOVERY CENTERS ALL OF THIS  BECOMES VERY IMPORTANT AND  THAT INFORMATION NEEDS TO FLOW  REAL TIME UNDER SHOULD BE  MULTIPLE POINTS OF CONTACT IF  WE PUT ON THE WEB SITE THAT'S  GREAT UNTIL CELL PHONES OR  INFORMATION WASN'T ACCESSIBLE.  SO IT NEEDS TO GO OUT AND  OTHER MEANS MULTIPLE MEANS.  CITY HAS DONE AN EXCELLENT JOB  IN PUBLIC INFORMATION SHARING  DURING EMERGENCY  IMPLEMENTATION OF A CITY  CALLED CENTER THAT SHOULD BE  VERY MUCH FORMALIZE IT WAS A  VERY VERY USEFUL TOOL. AND  HELP THE PUBLIC HAVE A CENTRAL  POINT OF CONTACT AND  COORDINATION. RESILIENCE AND  ECONOMIC STABILITY THERE WERE  SOME VERY GOOD STRESS. THOUGH  EXPLICITLY FOUND IN THE 2019  SEE HIM PAY. IT WAS NOTED THAT  CITY'S GRANT MANAGER TOOK  STRONG INITIATIVE TO ORGANIZE  AND ASSEMBLE KEY STAKEHOLDERS  TO FORM KIND OF DISASTER  RECOVERY COORDINATION TASK  FORCE VERY VERY EFFECTIVE.  DOCUMENTATION AND COORDINATING  RESOURCE NEEDS FOR THE CITY  GOVERNMENT FINANCIAL REPAIR.  COORDINATE RECOVERY OPERATIONS  MEETINGS WERE HELD REGULARLY  WITH 2 SEPARATE GROUPS OF  STAKEHOLDERS TO REST NEXT TO  UNDERSTAND BOTH EXTERNAL AND  EXTERNAL LEADS. FUNDING AND  COORDINATION EFFORTS POST OR  WE'RE ALL DOCUMENTED VERY VERY  WELL. ONE GROUP IS COMPRISED  OF GRANT COORDINATOR THE  INSURANCE TEAM THE IN FINANCE  PROCUREMENT UTILITY, PUBLIC  WORKS. ALL THESE DEPARTMENT  REPRESENTATIVES THEY HAVE  ACTIVE RECOVERY ROLE WITHIN  THE CITY. THE SECOND GROUP  INCLUDE SHOULD INCLUDE FEMA.  FLORIDA DISASTER MANAGEMENT.  WITH SOME CITY TEAM MEMBERS  ATTENDING BOTH THROUGH  MEETINGS TO HELP FACILITATE  CONTINUITY AND PROVIDE  RECOVERY OPERATIONS. THIS WILL  ALSO ALLOW AGAIN THAT COMMON  OPERATING PICTURE OR AWARENESS  OF WHAT THE NEEDS ARE. SO THAT  THERE'S NO ASSUMPTIONS  ANYWHERE THERE IS STRONG  INFORMATION AS TO WHAT THE  NEEDS ARE AND RESOURCES COULD  BE ALLOCATED ACCORDINGLY FROM  STATE COUNTY AND FEDERAL  RESOURCES. HURRICANE EXPO IS A  THROUGH THE HURRICANE EXPO I  LOVE THAT ACTUALLY THE  BUILDING AND PLANNING  DEPARTMENT PROVIDED STORM  PREPAREDNESS INFORMATION  RESIDENTS AND BUSINESS OWNERS  THAT SHOULD CONTINUE IS VERY  VALUABLE. SO YOU KNOW FORTUNE  MAKE HIGH PRIORITY  ESTABLISHING A FORMAL.  DISASTER RECOVERY GROUP TO  ENHANCE COMMUNITY RECOVERY AND  RESILIENCE. I THINK THE FORMER  GROUP WILL BECOME VERY HELPFUL  BECAUSE THEN FROM THE  BEGINNING WE KNOW WHAT  DOCUMENTATION WE NEED WE  UNDERSTAND WHAT DISASTER NEEDS  ARE IN VARIOUS COMMUNITIES.  AND IT WOULD HELP THE BUILDING  GROW AWARENESS AS WELL  PREPLANNED FOR OUR PLAN FOR  THE DISASTER RECOVERY  DOCUMENTATION THAT'S NEEDED  WHICH CAN BE VERY COMPLICATED  IN SEEKING REIMBURSEMENT. CITY  CAN WORK TO ENHANCE COMMUNITY  RESILIENCE AND ECONOMIC  SUSTAINABILITY BY IMPROVING  EFFORTS TO EDUCATE RESIDENTS.  MORE EFFECTIVELY ENGAGE IN  COMMUNITY AND THE COMMUNITY  AND AS IT RELATES TO DISASTER  RECOVERY, MULTIPLE TIMES A  YEAR. ONE OF THE THINGS WE DID  NOTICE IS PORT HAS MANY  RESIDENTS THAT ARE NEW TO THE  AREA AND MAY NOT BE AWARE OF  ARE FAMILIAR WITH THE ACTUAL  RISK FROM HURRICANE AND SEVERE  COASTAL STORM. SO IT WOULD BE  AN OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE THAT  INFORMATION SO THAT RESIDENTS  CAN TAKE SOME OWNERSHIP AND  RESPONSIBILITY FOR PLANNING  FOR DISASTERS ON THEIR OWN AND  ALSO WORK WITH THE COUNT OF  THAT SORT OF THE CITY BE  PREPARED AND BE READY TO  RESPOND TO CRISIS.  OPPORTUNITIES FOR ENGAGEMENT  THROUGHOUT PLANNING MEETINGS.  AHEAD OF THE STORM SEASON SO  THAT RESIDENTS CAN BECOME  AWARE AND START TO BUILD  INFRASTRUCTURE AND  CAPABILITIES OF THEIR  DOCUMENTATION OF THEIR DAMAGE  OR OF THEIR POSSESSIONS BUT  FOR POTENTIAL DAMAGE. THOSE  THINGS ADDITIONALLY WE  RECOMMEND CROSS TRAINING  EXISTING STAFF TO PERFORM  MULTIPLE ROLES WITHIN  PERMITTING AND LAND USE  MANAGEMENT THIS CAN HELP  PROVIDE SOME FLEXIBILITY FOR  STAFF SHORTAGES THAT INCREASE.  I REALIZE THAT I'M SOME OF  THOSE REQUIRE CERTIFICATION.  BUT THE POINT IS TO HAVE  AWARENESS OF BUILDING AND LAND  USE MANAGEMENT ISSUES. SO THAT  ONE DISASTER COURAGE. YOU HAVE  BETTER. AT LEAST BRIDGE  PERSONNEL AS YOU START TO  SECURE ADDITIONAL RESOURCES.  WE RECOMMEND ACTIVELY  RECRUITING AND TRAINING  QUALIFIED INSPECTORS. AND  ZONING STAFF, ESPECIALLY AS  THE COMMUNITY'S GROWING  SUBSTANTIALLY. ESTABLISH  APPRENTICESHIPS AND INTERNSHIP  PROGRAMS TO GROOM INDIVIDUALS  INTERESTED IN THOSE ROLES. SO  THAT THERE IS GIVEN TAKE  THERE'S A BENEFIT BUT AT THE  SAME TIME. PERSONNEL CAN BE  TRAINED. THE COMMUNITY CAN  BENEFIT THE RESIDENTS CAN  BENEFIT THE CITY CAN BENEFIT.  THE CITY HAS. STAFF HAS  ADVISED THAT FINDING QUALIFIED  INSPECTORS WAS A HUGE  CHALLENGE IN THIS DISASTER  WHICH IS WHY WE MAKE THIS  RECOMMENDATION. EXAMINE  SHOOTING STAFF VERY SHORT  SUPPLY AND ALSO A NEED TO LOOK  AT DISASTER PERMITTING AS  WELL. ON LINE FROM PERMANENT  PROCESS SHOULD BE EXPANDED AND  APPLICATION SUBMISSION. THIS  WILL ALLOW RESIDENTS TO BE  ABLE TO ACCESS AND BUILDING  PERMITS AND AUTOMATE SOME OF  THE PROCESS WHICH WILL IN TURN  ALLOW PERSONNEL TO BE  ASSIGNED. AND OTHER WAYS.  EXCUSE ME EXPLORE REGIONAL  PARTNERSHIPS WHICH I KNOW YOU  HAVE WITH OTHER MUNICIPALITIES  BE ABLE SHARE RESOURCES AT  LEAST DURING THOSE CRITICAL  POINTS OF DISASTER RECOVERY  OPERATIONS OF HIGH DEMAND  CRITICAL MOMENTS IN HIGH  DEMAND. EXPLORE REGIONAL  PARTNERSHIPS WITH NEARBY  MUNICIPALITIES TO SHARE THOSE  RESOURCES AS IT'S POSSIBLE AND  FEASIBLE. CITY SHOULD CONTINUE  EFFORTS TO REVISE MASTER PLAN  TO INCLUDE LAND USE  REGULATIONS. FOR IDENTIFIED  HIGH HAZARD AREAS. MINIMIZE  STRUCTURES CURTAIL FUTURE  DEVELOPMENT AND THOSE HIGH  HAZARD AREAS BECAUSE THE MORE  YOU DEVELOP AN THERE IS THE  MORE TRY HAZARD AREA SORRY THE  MORE VULNERABILITY THAT WILL  BE THE POPULATION. CITIES  ACTIVELY PARTICIPATING IN THE  A P WE SAW THAT YOU ARE  CLASSIFIED RATE WHICH IS VERY  POSITIVE AND THAT PROVIDES A  DISCOUNT TO RESIDENTS WHO GET  FLOOD INSURANCE, SO WE NEED TO  ENCOURAGE FLOOD INSURANCE AS  PART OF THE PROCESS OF  COMMUNITY SUSTAINABILITY. THIS  RATING IS BASED UPON LAND USE  MANAGEMENT PRACTICES AND KAREN  THINGS THAT YOU'RE DOING WHICH  ARE WELL DOCUMENTED. ALSO  NORTH YOU SHOULD CONTINUE IN  THE STATE FLOODPLAIN MANAGER  PROGRAM. REVIEW STRUCTURES AND  FIRE HAZARD AREAS CONTINUE  OPPORTUNITY TO LOOK FOR  OPPORTUNITY TO REDUCE RISK AND  VULNERABILITY IN THIS HIGH  HAZARD AREAS FOR TRAINING AND  SAFETY WERE THERE. YOU'RE  YOU'RE CMP OUTLINES EMERGENCY  TRAINING FOR NORTH PORT STAFF  AND PROVIDES GUIDELINES FOR  PUBLIC AWARENESS AND EDUCATION  AS WELL. THE TRAINING SECTION  PROVIDES DETAILED INFORMATION  ABOUT TRAINING AS IT RELATES  THE ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES  LEVELS OF TRAINING TYPES OF  TRAINING, ALL THAT IS VERY  POSITIVE AND VERY PROACTIVE.  THE CITY COULD BENEFIT FROM  DEVELOPING FURTHER COMMUNITY  OUTREACH AND COMMUNITY  TRAINING WITH RESIDENTS TO  SUPPORT RESILIENCE EVEN  BUILDING COMMUNITY EMERGENCY  RESPONSE TEAMS. AS APPROPRIATE  TO HELP FOSTER ENGAGEMENT AS  WELL AS DYNAMIC RELATIONSHIP  WITH THE RESIDENTS WHO ARE THE  SHAREHOLDERS OF THE PLAN FOR A  CRISIS. BASED UPON SOME OF THE  INTERNAL EXTERNAL COORDINATION  COMMUNICATION ISSUES.  HURRICANE IAN WE DURING HER  COMMUTE WE UNCOVERED A COUPLE  THINGS. IT IS APPARENT THAT  THERE IS A NEED FOR HIGH  PRIORITIZED ADDITIONAL  DISASTER EMERGENCY MEASURE  TRAINING ACTIVITIES FOR CITY  STEP. SO IT SHOULDN'T CRISIS  KUNCE OCCUR THEY CAN FLIP INTO  THOSE CRISIS ROLES AND HAVE  THE TRAINING TO LEAD THE  EXPECTATIONS. THE CALL CENTER  IS A GREAT EXAMPLE INDIVIDUALS  MAY HAVE GREAT KNOWLEDGE ON  THEIR PARTICULAR DEPARTMENT  BUILDING THAT CALL CENTER  TRAINING A TAPE ABILITIES THAT  INDIVIDUALS KNOW THAT WHERE  THAT IS WHERE THEY'LL BE AND  WHAT THEY CAN LEARN ABOUT  VARIOUS ELEMENTS OF THE  DEPARTMENTS SO THAT THEY CAN  ADDRESS QUESTIONS CONCERNS AND  COMMENTS OF THE RESIDENTS  BECOME VERY VALUABLE. I THATS  ALL I HAVE IN THIS  PRESENTATION WHEN WE STOP  SHARING AND IF YOU HAVE ANY  QUESTIONS. DID YOU HAVE  ANYTHING ELSE.  >> ALL RIGHT SO MOVE ON TO  QUESTIONS. COMMISSIONER  MCDOWELL. I PROBABLY NEED A  COUPLE ROUNDS. I DON'T WANT TO  WHOLE DISCUSSION. BUT I WANT  TO  >> THE CONSULTANT SAID THAT  THE HAD REACHED OUT TO VARIOUS  STAKEHOLDERS THROUGHOUT THE  ENTIRE CITY. VARIOUS  DEPARTMENTS, VARIOUS  BUSINESSES. IT WAS VERY  DISAPPOINTED THAT THE  COMMISSION WAS NOT APPROACHED.  THE COMMISSION WAS NOT  CONSULTED. WE WE HAVE A UNIQUE  PERSPECTIVE. WE GOT A LOT OF  FEEDBACK FROM RESIDENTS. AND  WE JUST WEREN'T PART OF THAT  STRENGTHS WEAKNESSES AND  ANALYSIS AND I FOUND THAT TO  BE DISAPPOINTED. OUR VOICES  ARE IMPORTANT. WE ARE THE  LEGISLATORS AND WE ARE THAT A  DECISION MAKERS AND FOR THAT  TO FALL BY THE WAYSIDE IN THIS  REPORT WAS KIND OF TROUBLING.  I APPRECIATE THE CONSULTANT  ADVISING US THAT THIS WAS NOT  AFTER ACTION REPORT. IT DID  APPEAR MORE AS AN AFTER ACTION  REPORT. BUT WHEN I LOOK AT  PAGE 15 IT SAYS IT'S SUPPOSED  TO COVER FOR ALL. DISASTERS.  HOW IS THIS REPORT. COVER  ADDITIONAL DISASTERS THAT  AREN'T WEATHER RELATED. AND  I'M HOPEFUL THAT SOMEBODY  COULDN'T LEAST POINT ME INTO  THAT DIRECTION SO I CAN GET  AWAY FROM IT BEING AN AFTER  ACTION REPORT.  >> MORNING OR GOOD AFTERNOON  MIKE AND THERE IS EMERGENCY  CAN SPEAK TO THAT.  >> SO.  >> THIS REPORT REALLY SET  FORTH A STRATEGY AS FAR AS  RESILIENCE AND RECOVERY GOES  THAT UTILIZE THE LESSONS  LEARNED FROM HURRICANE IAN TO  BUILD ON THAT BECAUSE IT WAS  SUCH A LARGE-SCALE DISASTER  THAT NORTH PORT UNDERGOING. WE  CAN TAKE STRATEGY HERE REALLY  APPLY ACROSS ALL DIFFERENT  DISASTERS BECAUSE AS YOU KNOW  EVERY DISASTER IS DIFFERENT.  BUT THERE'S A LOT OF THE SAME  FRAMEWORK THAT GOES THROUGH  THIS RECOVERY PROCESS OF  PLASTIC EVERY THING THAT THE  HURRICANES WILDFIRES TORNADOES  FLOODING.  >> BASICALLY THE  >> PLANNED THE STRATEGY HERE  WE CAN TAKE THE PARTS OF IT.  YOU CAN APPLY IT TO THE  INDIVIDUAL CIRCUMSTANCE OR  DISASTER THAT WE'RE FACING  BECAUSE THAT RECOVERY PROCESS  IS GOING TO BE LARGELY THE  SAME. UNDERGO WE GO THROUGH  THAT SAME PROCESS OF RESPONSE  TO SHORT-TERM RECOVERY. 2  LONG-TERM RECOVERY. AND THE  ELEMENTS OF THOSE ARE TRUE TO  REGARDLESS OF DISASTER ARTIST  SCOPE IT JUST ALLOWS US TO BE  FLEXIBLE SO WE CAN HAVE IT  TOO. WHERE THE INDIVIDUAL  LOCATION OR NEEDS OR IMPACTS  OF THAT PARTICULAR DISASTER IS  SO IT WOULD APPLY TO NATURAL  AS WELL AS MANY  >> SO THAT KIND OF TAKES ME TO  ONE OF MY FIRST IN THE REPORT  ON PAGE 15. IT TALKS IT REALLY  APPLIES TO RESPONSES AND  RECOVERY OPERATIONS DURING  STATE IN PRESIDENTIAL DECLARED  EMERGENCIES OR MAJOR  DISASTERS. WE'VE HAD MANY  LOCAL. DECLARATIONS OF  DISASTER AT LOCAL DECLARATIONS  OF EMERGENCIES AND I REALLY  THINK LOCAL SHOULD BE ADDED IN  THERE. NOT JUST STATE BECAUSE  THEY'RE REMOVED FROM THINGS  THAT HAPPENED IN OUR CITY WE  HAD A WILDFIRE. WE HAD A  PROBLEM WITH OUR IT  TECHNOLOGIES THAT WAS CREATING  DISASTROUS EFFECTS MAYBE NOT  LIKE HURRICANE IAN, BUT. OUR  CITY THAT AFFECTS I REALLY  WOULD LIKE TO SEE LOCAL  DECLARED EMERGENCIES TO ADDED  INTO THAT I AGREE WITH YOU A  1000%.  >> AND THAT WE WOULD APPLY  THAT SAME STRATEGY EVEN IF  IT'S NOT A STATE OR ESTHER.  >> BUT HAVING THE REPORT SAY  IT'S LOCALLY DECLARED ALSO  KIND GIVES IT A LITTLE BIT  MORE TEETH WHEN WE HAVE TO  REACH OUT TO ARCED OUR  PARTNERS OUTSIDE OF THE AREA  PERSISTENCE AGREE THAT  SOMETHING WE CAN LOOK TO GET  AMENDED. THROUGHOUT THIS  DOCUMENT IT WAS TALKING ABOUT  THE O C. AND I UNDERSTAND THE  CITY OF NORTH PORT HAS AND YOU  KNOW SEE DEPARTMENT THANK YOU  VERY MUCH. BUT WE ALSO HAVE A  COUNTY YOSSI SO MY QUESTION IS  IN THIS DOCUMENT ARE WE  REFERENCING CITY YOU SEEN OR  COUNTY BOCC OR BOTH AND IF  IT'S A LITTLE BIT OF BOTH BUT  NOT IN THIS INSTANCE, BUT IN  THAT INSTANCE, MAYBE IT SHOULD  SAY CITY E O C COUNTY YOSSI,  OR CITY AND OR COUNTY. AND  DESIGNATE THAT BECAUSE WHEN I  WAS READING IT I WAS THINKING  COUNTY. AND THEN IT REALLY  WOULDN'T KNOW I THINK THEY'RE  TALKING ABOUT CITY IT'S NOT  VERY CLEAR.  >> SO THE REPORT IS DETAILED  MORE TOWARDS FINDINGS AND  EVALUATION OF THE CITY YOU  KNOW SEEING THE PROCESS IS  GOING TO APPLY TO BOTH CITY  AND COUNTY CAN WE CAN LOOK TO  MAKE THAT MORE CLEAR BECAUSE  OF CITY AND KINDNESS ALL THAT  SAME FRAMEWORK OR RECOVERY AND  RESILIENCE. OKAY.  >> ONE OF THE BIG THINGS THAT  WHEN I WAS READING THE KEPT  COMING BACK TO IS.  >> HEY WE NEED TO HAVE A WEB  PAGE FOR COMMUNICATIONS, HEY  WE'RE GOING TO RELY ON THE  RADIO AND SOCIAL MEDIA AND  MEDIA OUTLETS. I DON'T KNOW  ABOUT ANYBODY ELSE, BUT I HAD  NO ELECTRICITY FOR 5 DAYS AND  I COULDN'T GET ANY  COMMUNICATIONS.  >> I COULDN'T USE MY PHONE I  NOTHING.  >> SO.  >> IN MY OPINION WE NEED TO  ALSO FOCUS ON TECHNOLOGY.  SOURCES INTO THAT WE REPORT  AND I WOULD LIKE TO SEE WHAT  THOSE WOULD BE. FOR THE  CITIZENS TO UNDERSTAND HEY YOU  HAVE NO ELECTRICITY HERE IS  HOW YOU GET THAT INFORMATION  HERE IS WHERE YOU WOULD GOUT.  SO I JUST REALLY DIDN'T SEE  THAT FOCUS TOO MUCH IN HERE  WHERE THOSE NON TECHNOLOGY.  COMMUNICATION RESOURCES GOING  TO BE FOUND. SO THAT WE CAN  EFFECTIVELY COMMUNICATE THAT  AND AS DISASTER IS GOING ON.  >> I THINK WE CAN LOOK TO  EXPAND ON THAT BECAUSE I AGREE  WITH YOU THERE'S OPPORTUNITY  THERE I THINK WE'RE GOING BACK  TO WITH THAT IS AS MANY  DIFFERENT METHODS AS POSSIBLE  BECAUSE IT'S THE SAME  INFORMATION OUT THERE WE JUST  WANT THAT INFORMATION TO GET  OUT THERE. SO ONE OF THE BIG  THINGS THAT WE PUSH IN  EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS IS I  THINK THAT PORTABLE RADIO  BATTERY PARK PORTABLE RADIO BE  A PART OF DISASTER SUPPLY KIT  SO EVEN IF YOU'RE RIGHT THE  POWER GOES OUT INTERNET'S GONE  TO HAVE THE RADIO BE ONE OF  THOSE OPTIONS TO CONTINUE TO  RECEIVE THOSE COMMUNICATIONS  BUT THERE ARE OTHER OPTIONS WE  CAN LOOK RUIS ART AS NON  POWERED OPTIONS, WORD OF MOUTH  IS ONE OF THE BIG SPREADER  EVENT FROM ATION BUT IT'S VERY  DIFFICULT TO TAP GOING TO  SOMETHING WE'RE GOING HAPPEN.  YOU CAN EXPLORE OTHER OFFLINE  OPPORTUNITIES FOR  COMMUNICATION.  >> AND OUR COMMUNICATIONS  DIVISION HAS. EXPLORE OTHER  OPTIONS DURING HURRICANE IAN,  THEY USE THE SANDWICH BOARDS  THAT WERE PLACED. LOCATIONS  SUCH AS PUBLIX WALMART WHERE  PEOPLE ARE GOING TO GET  SUPPLIES. BUT THAT TAKES TIME  TO GET OUT INTO THE COMMUNITY  BECAUSE.  >> THE TRAFFIC WAS IMPACTED  ARE BEING ABLE TO GET TO THOSE  SO YOU COULD THE COMMUNICATION  OUT WHENEVER SOUND IS VERY  CHALLENGING. BUT STAFF IS  TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WAYS THAT  WE CAN DO THAT EXPORT VISUALLY  SORRY GO AHEAD ANOTHER JUST  KIND OF PIGGY BACKING ON THAT  WE DO IS WE PUT OUT THOSE  VARIABLE MESSAGE BOARDS  ANYTIME WE SET UP SOME SORT  OF.  >> DISASTER RESPONSE AREA. SO  IF WE HAVE A SHELTER WE HAD  THAT TERRIBLE MESSAGE CALLING  ATTENTION TO BUT THIS WAY FOR  THE SHELTER GO THIS WAY FOR  THE NEIGHBORHOOD POT, SO IT  CAN'T YOU'RE THAT YOU HAVE TO  BE THERE TO SEE THAT SIGN. YOU  KNOW WE CAN WORK PATIENTS  STRATEGIES OTHER OFFLINE AND  KIND OF REALLY WE JUST WANT TO  DO THE BEST WE CAN TO GETTING  THAT INFORMATION OUT THERE.  >> AND ALONG THE SAME LINES  AND YIELD AS LONG AS I CAN GET  ANOTHER ROUND COMMUNICATION.  NORTH PORT IS THE LARGEST CITY  IN SARASOTA COUNTY. BUT WE  WERE TALKED ABOUT THE LEAST.  >> THEY'RE THERE WAS NO REAL  ONCE ONCE PEOPLE WERE ABLE TO  GET INFORMATION COME BACK  ONLINE.  >> THE INFORMATION THAT WAS  RECEIVED HAD MORE TO DO WITH.  >> NORTH COUNTY OR CHARLOTTE  COUNTY OR FORT MYERS OR TAMPA.  >> IT WAS NOT LOCATED IN OUR  CITY AND I AM HOPEFUL THAT  WITH THIS COMMUNICATION THAT  THOSE MEDIA OUTLET. HE WON'T.  FORGETTING THE U.S.. AS MUCH  AS THEY WERE DURING HURRICANE  IAN.  >> I THINK THAT JUST GOES TO  CALL OUR COMMUNICATIONS TEAM  CULTIVATING THOSE RESOURCES  ARE THOSE RELATIONSHIPS WITH  THOSE YOU KNOW THIS BECAUSE  THEY ARE TEND TO GO TO THE  COUNTY YOU SEE KUZ THAT CHAIR.  EVACUATION DECISIONS ARE  HAPPENING.  >> AS  >> WE CONTINUE TO FALL OFF  THAT RELATIONSHIP WITH THE  MEDIA BECAUSE WE DO HAVE OUR  OWN SEE WHERE WE ARE DOING OUR  OWN OPERATIONS AND RECOVERY.  WE CAN WORK WITH THE MEDIA TO  HAVE THEM COME DOWN AND SPREAD  THE INFORMATION DIRECTLY TO  CITIZENS.  >> IF I MAY JUST REAL QUICK  FOLLOW-UP TO THAT MAYOR.  >> IOC THAT THE CITY.  >> I  >> THOUGHT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE  MORE IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE  COUNTY. BUT I'M I'M KIND OF  HEARING FROM YOU AND FROM  READING THIS THAT IT'S CITY O  C COUNTY YOU SEE AND THAT  THERE REALLY ISN'T THAT  COLLABORATION FOR INFORMATION  OR IS THAT SOMETHING THAT  NEEDS TO BE WORKED ON.  >> SO I WANT WALK THAT BACK  THEN BECAUSE VERY MUCH A  COLLABORATION CITY OC IS UNDER  HERE OUR FRONTLINE, OUR  CONCERNS ARE THE CITIZENS OF  PORT AND THAT DIRECT LEVEL  OPERATIONAL SERVICE. WE'RE  VERY MUCH COLLABORATION WITH  COUNTY YOU SEE AND THE GREATER  COUNTING EFFORTS. IF WE ARE  UNABLE HER RESOURCE OR WE NEED  SOME SUPPORT CITY LEVEL WE ALL  THAT REQUEST TO THE COUNTY  LEVEL AND THEY PROVIDE THAT  RESOURCE AND THEN COUNTY SOME  PEOPLE WITH THE COUNTY SENT IT  TO THE STATES SO THAT'S HOW  THAT PROCESS WE ARE LOCKSTEP  WITH THE COUNTY EVERY STEP OF  THE I KNOW THAT IT WAS TALKED  ABOUT IN THAT REPORT OF OFTEN  THAT RELATIONSHIP FURTHER. I  WAS NOT HERE DURING IAN I WAS  DOWN IN THE COUNTY ACTUALLY  BUT STACEY I BOTH HAVE THE  GOOD OPPORTUNITY COME IN HERE  AND WE'RE VERY MUCH WORKING ON  THAT RELATIONSHIP WITH THE  COUNTY. WE HAVE A LITTLE BIT  OF THE ADVANTAGE THERE BECAUSE  THE NEW EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT  DIRECTOR FOR COUNTY. WE  HAVEN'T WE WANT TO CONTINUE TO  FOSTER THAT RELATIONSHIP SO  THAT WE CAN EVEN LOCKSTEP WITH  THE COUNTY MAKE SURE THAT  RIGHT SO NEEDS OF NORTH PORT  ARE  >> REMEMBER JUST  >> YES GO AHEAD.  >> IF I CAN INJECT COUPLE  THINGS THAT I THINK ARE VERY  IMPORTANT RELEASED FIRST AND  FOREMOST THIS REPORT WAS  WRITTEN. A BIT AGO AND HAS  BEEN THROUGH A REVIEW PROCESS  OVER THE LAST FEW MONTHS. YOUR  EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PROGRAM  HAS DONE A WONDERFUL JOB AT 40  AND YOU AND YOUR STAFF. I  ALREADY IMPLEMENTING SOME OF  THE STATE. BUT WE FELT IT  IMPORTANT TO CONTINUE TO  DOCUMENT THEM AND THE BORDER  AND THEY NEED. SO THAT AS YOU  POINT OUT IT DOESN'T DISAPPEAR  IT BECOMES RELEVANT. THE  COORDINATION WITH THE COUNTY  WAS DRAMATICALLY IMPACTED FOR  A COUPLE REASONS DURING THIS  STORM. SOMEONE HAD TO DO WITH  STAFFING AND TIMING SOME OF  THAT HAD TO DO WITH  COMMUNICATIONS IN THE  MICROWAVE SYSTEM GOING OUT.  SOME OF THAT HAD TO DO WITH.  THE WAY FLORIDA IS SET UP WITH  RESOURCE ALLOCATION  COORDINATION PREDOMINANTLY  FROM THE COUNTY OUT TO THE  JURISDICTIONS IMPACT. THAT  LIAISON SYSTEM ONCE  COMMUNICATIONS WENT OUT.  BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO  COORDINATE WITH THE COUNTY AND  TELL THEM. WHAT WAS BEING  FACED BY PORT. I PERSONALLY  THINK THAT'S AN ISSUE THAT IS  A SUBSTANTIAL ISSUE AND I  BELIEVE THAT'S WHY THE  COMMENTARY ABOUT  COMMUNICATIONS BECOME SO  IMPORTANT. BUT ON THE BIG  INFORMATION AND KNOWLEDGE  PERSON YOU CAN'T YOU CAN MAKE  INFORMED DECISIONS WITHOUT.  EXTENSIVE INFORMATION. SO I  THAT'S THAT'S MY BELT THAT'S  SOMETHING I'M VERY STRONG  ABOUT IT MIGHT BIAS THAT WAY  COMES THROUGH I'M SURE IN THE  DOCUMENT BECAUSE I THINK IT IS  SO CRITICAL WHEN YOU HAVE A  CRISIS. BUT THOSE THINGS ARE  BEING RESOLVED TO BOTH THE NEW  COUNTY THE COUNTY HAS NEW  STAFFING. THAT IS WORKING ON  IT AND REALLY THE THING THAT'S  LEFT HE'S FOR NORTH PORT TO BE  ABLE TO SPEAK UP FOR ITSELF  AND THAT LIAISON AND  COMMUNICATION RON THAT'S WHY  HAVING A DEDICATED  COMMUNICATIONS RUPERT TEAM  THAT IS WORKING ON THAT 2 WAY  COMMUNICATION, MAKING SURE  THAT THE NEEDS OF NORTH PORT  ARE BEING SEEN BY THOSE THAT  NEED TO SEE IT AS WELL.  COMMISSIONER LANGDON JUST  SHARING WHERE IT WAS COMING  FROM I HOPE YOU DON'T MIND.  YOU KNOW YOU ARE OUR TEAM IS  COMING  >> WE APPRECIATE HIM, BUT  COMMISSIONER LANGDON THAT'S  GOOD THANK THANK YOU. MAYOR.  AND THE REPORT YOU MENTIONED A  NEED FOR MORE ARE BETTER.  EMERGENCY HOUSING THAT'S  AVAILABLE DURING AND AFTER  THESE KINDS OF DISASTERS.  >> DO WE KNOW.  >> WHAT PERCENTAGE OF THOSE  FOLKS WHO WERE USING OUR  SCHOOLS. AFTER THE DISASTER,  WHAT PERCENT WERE  ACTUALLY NORTH PORT RESIDENTS  AND WHAT PERCENT ACTUALLY CAME  FROM ENGLEWOOD AND VENICE. I'M  UNDER THE THE IMPRESSION AND  PLEASE CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG  NEITHER OF THOSE COMMUNITIES  VENICE MIGHT HAVE DONE  SOMETHING IN THE MEANTIME, BUT  I'M NOT SURE. NEITHER OF THOSE  COMMUNITIES HAVE EMERGENCY  HOUSING FOR RESIDENTS AND IN  TRUTH. DURING IRMA SO THAT  SHOULD GET WITH BUT DURING  IRMA VENICE ISLAND AND THE  ENGLEWOOD COMMUNITY WAS  EVACUATED.  >> SO MY SENSE IS A GOOD.  >> PROPORTION AND I'D BE  INTERESTED IN THE NUMBER  OVERALL OF FOLKS WHO UTILIZE  OUR EMERGENCY RESIDENTIAL  CAPABILITIES ACTUALLY COME  FROM OUTSIDE THE CITY. IF YOU  DON'T KNOW THAT REALLY LIKE TO  KNOW THAT SO SORT OF QUESTION  NUMBER ONE.  >> IT'S SOMETHING I DON'T KNOW  THE ANSWER TO THAT THAT'S  SOMETHING THAT WE CAN LOOK  INTO ALSO DON'T KNOW WHETHER  BENEFIT AND WOULD HAVE THEIR  SHELTERS.  >> THEY ARE LOCATED IN THAT  ZONE A AREAS SO IT'S UNLIKELY  BUT I DON'T WANT TO SAY A  PERSON THEY KNOW THAT'S MY  IMPRESSION ALSO WHICH IS WHY I  BROUGHT IT UP AND AND THE  SIMILAR THE CITY FROM WHERE DO  I BEGIN WITH THIS ONE OF THE  ISSUES WE DO HAVE SAY IT WAS  IN THIS BUILDING. AND WE HAD  MULTIPLE SYSTEM FAILURES IN  THIS BILL DONE. DURING AND  AFTER AN. AND I THINK THAT'S  PART OF THE IMPETUS. WE'RE  BEGINNING TO TALK ABOUT  BUILDING A RUGGEDIZED FACILITY  LIKE MANATEE LIKE SARASOTA  COUNTY UP IN THE CITY OF  SARASOTA. I'M VERY EXPENSIVE  BUILDING AN EMERGENCY  OPERATIONS CENTER. SO COUPLE  QUESTIONS RELATIVE TO THAT.  ARE EITHER THE CITY OF  SARASOTA AND THE CITY OF  VENICE CONSIDERING BUILDING  THEIR OWN, YOU KNOW SEE.  >> I KNOW THE CITY OF VENICE  UTILIZES THEIR NEW POLICE  STATION AS THERE YOU SEE. BUT  I DON'T KNOW ABOUT SARASOTA.  >> DON'T KNOW ABOUT SEX BUT  ALSO WITH THE PROBABLY  SERVICED PRETTY WELL BY  SARASOTA SOME.  >> SAME THING CHARLOTTE COUNTY  DID THEY HAVE A RUGGEDIZED  BUILDING ONTO THEY OPERATE OUT  OF ONE OF THEIR ADMINISTRATIVE  BUILDING THEY HAVE A PUBLIC  SAFETY COMPLEX INCLUDES TURKEY  OK AND IT'S ALL RECOGNIZED AND  REDUNDANT AND ALL OF THAT  WONDERFUL STUFF. POKING AT  THIS A LITTLE BIT. BECAUSE. MY  GENERAL SENSE FOR THE CITY  OF NORTH PORT IT IF WE ARE  REALLY GOING TO CONSIDER  BUILDING AND OC.  >> WHAT WE REALLY NEED TO  DETERMINE THE NEED FOR THAT  AND WE NEED TO DETERMINE THE  SCOPE OF THAT. BECAUSE IT'S MY  GENERAL IMPRESSION THAT SOUTH  COUNTY HAS SOME ISSUES. AND IN  TERMS OF GETTING THESE KINDS  OF RESOURCES AND COORDINATING  THESE KINDS OF RESOURCES AND I  THINK IT WOULD BE SHORTSIGHTED  HAMAS. TO I SAY PLANNING TO  INVEST AND SUCH AN IMPORTANT  NECESSARY I'M NOT QUESTIONING  THE NECESSITY OF THAT. BUT IT  SEEMS TO ME THAT. THE  ENGLEWOOD AREA WHICH IS  COUNTY. SO THEN WHICH COUNTY.  COULD REALLY BENEFIT BY ANY  INVESTMENTS THAT THE CITY  OF NORTH PORT MIGHT MAKE IN  THIS AREA. SO WHY BRING IT UP  AND I'D LIKE YOUR INPUT ABOUT  THE CONSULTANT YOU GUYS OVER  THERE THAT. I THINK WE NEED TO  BE REGIONAL. MEANING OUTSIDE  OF CLUB. WE NEED TO BE  REGIONAL AND HOW WE'RE  APPROACHING FROM PLANNING  POINT OF VIEW, I MEAN I THINK  THE CITY OF NORTH PORT IS MUCH  BETTER POSITIONED TO PROVIDE A  VARIETY OF THESE SERVICES TO  ENGLEWOOD AND SOUTH SARASOTA  COUNTY AND SO WE SHOULD  APPROACH IT THAT WAY AND OF  COURSE YOU KNOW HOW I ROLL HOW  ARE WE GOING TO PAY FOR IT. I  THINK IT NEEDS TO BE MORE THAN  THE CITY OF NORTH PORT IF WE  GO IN THAT DIRECTION FUNDING  BOTH THE THE BUILDING AND THE  OPERATIONS OF SEE CENTER SITE  JUST REALLY INTERESTED IN  AHL'S AS THAT FROM BOSTON SO  POINT OF VIEW RELATIVE TO FOR  THE CONSULTING JOBS IN  SCOTLAND FOR FIRE RESCUE  >> WELL THERE'S A LOT ON  FACTORS HAHA. FIRST LET ME SAY  BY STATUTE. COUNTY OBLIGATED  TO PROVIDE THOSE TYPES OF  SERVICES. REASON. WE HAVE  DEVELOPED A PROGRAM INVESTED  DEVELOPING A PROGRAM HERE IS  BECAUSE. THE CITY OF NORTH  PORT HISTORICALLY WAS SURE NOT  BECAUSE NOBODY'S BUT BY THE  SIZE OF THE COUNTY AND THE  THINGS THAT HAPPEN. MIKE TYSON  SO STRAIGHT PLAN TO GET  PUNCHED IN THE PEOPLE TEND TO  DO PEOPLE TEND TO TAKE CARE OF  THE THINGS THEY KNOW. WHEN YOU  TALK A LOT SARASOTA COUNTY.  THEY'VE BEEN AROUND FOR A  WHILE KIND OF GOVERNMENT. THEY  TALK ABOUT MID COUNTY. MITT  ROMNEY IS IN THE COUNTY. I  THAT THERE'S BEEN A  SIGNIFICANT SHIFT IN  DEMOGRAPHICS. SOUTH THE COUNTY  AND TO THE CITY OF NEWARK  RIGHT. FOR US TO BE ABLE TO  FACILITATE THE SERVICES THAT  WERE NEEDED THAT'S WHERE WE  BEGIN DEVELOP THE RICHMOND  PROGRAM NOW LOOKING AT AND YOU  SEE. FOR US TOO SO THERE'S  ALWAYS AT THE EMERGENCY  SERVICES LEVEL. THERE'S ALWAYS  DIFFERENT COMMUNICATIONS  BETWEEN. SO FOR EMERGE MEDICAL  SERVICES FOR FIRE PROTECTION  THINGS LIKE THAT THROUGH  INSIGNIFICANT. CAJUNS BETWEEN  US. SOUTH SARASOTA COUNTY. AND  WITH THAT. AND AS SOMEONE  WE'RE NOT REALLY WE'RE NOT  REALLY TOUCHING THEM SO WE  TALK TO OUR MUTUAL AID  PARTNERS, CHARLOTTE COUNTY AS  WELL. I WOULD PROBABLY AGREE  WITH YOU I WOULD MAYBE I'M  SURE I DON'T THINK THAT'S A  CITY OF PORT. PROBLEM AND I  THINK SEARCH FOR THE COUNTY  WILL TELL YOU THAT THEY THEY  BELIEVE THEY HAVE THAT AND I'M  REALLY KNOW HOW WELL THAT HIM  WELL, I YOU HAD YOUR QUESTIONS  THAT THE NEW EMERGING MANAGER  THEIR THICK AS A GREAT  OPPORTUNITY TO PUT EYES ON THE  ENTIRE COUNTY. WE ARE HERE  HAVE TO SAY WE'RE HERE TO  ADVOCATE FOR CITY OF NORTH  PORT AND OUR RESIDENTS. THAT'S  WHERE OF COURSE OUR NEIGHBORS  ARE IN NEED. WE PROVIDE WE  HAVE NEW TRADE AGREEMENTS AND  ALL THOSE OTHER THINGS HELP  WITH THAT. WE ADVERTISE IN  CONJUNCTION WITH SOUTH SEARCH  FOR THE COUNTY. ANY MESSAGE  THAT THAT'S UNIQUE IT'S PUT  OUT ANOTHER COMMUNICATIONS  TEAM HAS WORKED. VERY VERY  HARD WITH SARASOTA COUNTY FOR  THE SINGS THAT OUR CONSISTENT  MESSAGING TO MAKE SURE THAT  COUNTY LIVE. AND THEN ALSO THE  DIFFERENTIATE FROM THE THINGS  THAT ARE SPECIFIC TO THE CITY.  GOES OUT THINGS THAT ARE  SPECIFIC TO SOUTH SARASOTA  COUNTY VERSUS NORTH AS YOU  KNOW THE THE CONDITIONS OF THE  COUNTY WEATHER CONDITIONS THAT  EVERYTHING ELSE THAT THE  RESULTING IMPACTS OF THE STORM  AND SOME OF THINGS CAN BE  DRASTICALLY DIFFERENT  DIFFERENT AREAS RENT AND. AND  FOR YEARS WE KIND OF FELT WHY  WOULD PROGRAM.  >> CAUTION IS STILL TIME TO  SEND OUT I DO HEAR YOU AND AND  I REALLY UNDERSTAND THE NEED  FOR THE INTERIM LOCALS. I I  POKE AT THEM A LITTLE BIT. I I  UNDERSTAND THE NEED FOR THAT.  OUR RESIDENCE. HEY COME T  TAXES AND ARE ALMOST AS HIGH  AS OUR CITY TAXES. THROUGH OUR  INTO LOCAL AGREEMENTS AND I'M  I'M NOT POKING AT THE  AGREEMENTS WE NEED TO HAVE  THEM BECAUSE THEY ALSO COME  AND HELP US WHEN WE NEED THAT  HELP. BUT WE'RE CONTEMPLATING  SPENDING. MILLIONS AND  MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF  DOLLARS FOR ANY O C. AND IT  JUST STRIKES ME IT'S THROUGH  OUR INTERIM LOCALS WHETHER  IT'S FIGHTING CRIME AND THE  WARM MINERAL SPRINGS AREA NOW.  OR IF IT'S PROVIDING EMERGENCY  HOUSING, EMERGENCY SERVICES  AND COMMUNICATIONS TO SOUTH  COUNTY. WE SOMEHOW NEED TO BE  COMPENSATED FOR THAT. EITHER  THROUGH REDUCED TAXES OR HELP  BUILDING AT OR SOMETHING. AND  AGAIN MY GENERAL SENSE IS WITH  OUR. DISASTER HOUSE AND I  FORGET THE PHRASE YOU USE FOR  IT, BUT YOU KNOW WHAT I'M  TALKING ABOUT 25% OR 50% OF  THE PEOPLE AND OUR SCHOOLS  AFTER A DISASTER I WOULD NEVER  CLOSE THE DOOR AND SAY YOU CAN  COME YOU'RE NOT FROM NORTH  WHAT NO I WOULD NEVER CONSIDER  THAT. BUT IF WE'RE PROUD  LIGHTING THOSE SERVICES AND  WE'RE INCURRING THE COST OF  THOSE SERVICES, THE CHANCE  STOP HERE. SO THAT'S THAT  HAMAS MISSION A CERTAIN THINGS  THAT THAT THAT. MAYBE HAPPENED  BEHIND THE SCENES THAT YOU  DON'T OFTEN SEE IS THINGS WE  DO WITH OUR MUTUAL AID  AGREEMENTS LIKE THAT SOME  THERE'S SOME LANGUAGE IN THERE  >> BUT.  >> NO ONE SERVICE SHOULD BE  SUPPLANTING ANOTHER SERVICE IN  OTHER WORDS SINCE SINCE  HIS NORTH PORT SHOULD NOT BE  BEARING AN UNDUE BURDEN OF  PROVIDING SERVICE SOMEWHERE  ELSE WITH THAT THOSE THINGS  BEGIN TO HAPPEN. WE TALK. WE  FIRST ESTABLISHED A FOOTPRINT  UP AND SAUCERS OR COUNTY WHICH  IS NOT WELL IN PARK BEFORE  THAT WAS ALL DEVELOPED EVEN  THOUGH CITY OF PORT. WE HAVE A  PRESENCE THERE. FIRST COUPLE  OF YEARS REALLY WASN'T A  SIGNIFICANT IMPACT THERE, BUT  CAN PROVIDE THE SERVICES THAT  USUALLY WHAT YOU REMEMBER WHEN  WE FIRST MOVED INTO THE WRONG  PART FIRE STATION COUNTY NOT  MOVING ON SOME OF THAT AREA  BECAUSE THEY NEEDED EVERY OF  OUR FOR GROWTH SECOND SO THEY  SHOULD HAD ONE DEPUTY ASSIGNED  TO SO COUNTED DURING THAT TIME  CORRECT. FOR DEPUTIES OUT OF  THAT. SHE'S GOT A LOT BUT I  HAVE MY POINT SO WE KIND OF  MADE IN THE RAIN FOR A LITTLE  WHILE THEN THEY MOVE THAT A  MILITARY GENERAL BECAUSE THEY  NEEDED IT THINK YOU GET A  FISCAL YEAR NUMBER ONE BACK IN  AND THAT WE COVER THOSE COSTS  THAT PRETENSE WE WE DO LOOK AT  THOSE THINGS. THE FUNDING FOR  THE UC WHAT YOU ALWAYS COME  BACK FROM VIEW APPROVED BUT  BASED UPON THE MEETING THAT  HAPPENED LAST WEEK I THINK  THAT'S BEING DRAWN UP WORK  FINANCE DEPARTMENT. COMBAT USE  THAT'S FUN THROUGH SURTAX  WHICH IS MONEY THAT'S  COLLECTED THROUGH THE COUNTY  COME BACK TO THE CITY AND SOME  THINGS LIKE THAT. AND THAT  EMERGED OPERATION CENTER IS  NOT JUST NEW SEE FUNCTION AS  FAR AS A COUNTY WIDE  OBLIGATION REMEMBER OUR HUB  PERCY. ACTIVITIES DURING  STORMS REALLY WILL BECOME THE  SIGNIFICANTLY HARDENED  FACILITY IN THE ENTIRE CITY  FOR US TO ABLE CONTINUE  OPERATING IF WE WERE HIT WITH  A CATASTROPHIC STORM AGAIN SO  AND SO MUCH MORE THAN JUST.  THE PHONE CONTACTS ARE  ACCOUNTING FOR I I JUST DOCKS  FOR BUT BUT HOW HOW I'D LIKE  TO BROACH IT WHEN I TALK  ABOUT.  >> AND THEIR DIFFICULTY IN  SERVICING THE CITY.  >> WITH HELP OUR POPULATION IS  GETTING TOO BIG. OUR NEEDS ARE  TOO GREAT. AND I JUST REALLY  FAIRNESS TO THE COUNTY. HOW  PRACTICAL IS THAT FOR US TO  REALLY RELY ON THEM AND THE  WAY THAT PERHAPS WE DID 1015  20 YEARS AGO. SO I'M KIND OF  BEING A JERK ABOUT THIS WE  HAVE SOME REALLY TOUGH  CONVERSATIONS COMING UP ABOUT  HOW WE'RE GOING TO FUND STUFF  AND AND WE NEED TO TEND TO  THINK INSIDE THE BOX PORT IS  SORT OF AN INSULAR AND TO  WE'VE GOT TO BREAK OUT OF  THAT. YOU KNOW IF IF WE'RE  REALLY PROVIDING SERVICES AS  WE SHOULD TO SURROUNDING  COMMUNITIES, HOWEVER, THEIR  INCORPORATED OR NOT AND WE  KNEW THAT NEEDS TO BE AND I'M  TAKING WAY TOO MUCH TIME, I'M  SORRY AND OUT I MIGHT NEED A  SECOND ROUND ALSO BUT THAT THE  FUNDING OF IT IS GOING TO BE  REALLY IMPORTANT AND I THINK  THE PLANNING OF IT DOES NEED  TO BE REGIONAL BECAUSE A LOT  OF THE SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES  BECAUSE WE'RE LOCATED HERE AND  WE'RE A CITY AND FROM SAY  ENGLEWOOD'S POINT OF VIEW WE  HAVE A LOT OF RESOURCES AND WE  NEED TO INCORPORATE THEM IN  OUR PLANNING AND I WOULD HELP  AT SOME POINT. IN THE AND  ASKED TIME FOR THE TIME BEING  I'M BEING OF YES BUT THANK YOU  MAYOR FOR THE RECORD JULIANA  BELLIA ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER,  I JUST WANT TO PROVIDE A  LITTLE BIT OF CLARIFICATION  CONTEXT. SO SINCE I STARTED  WORKING HERE WHICH MOST 44  YEARS. I HAVE BEEN INVOLVED  WITH THE O C.  >> I'VE SPENT MANY MANY MANY  DAYS AND NIGHTS SLEEPING THAT  SARASOTA C. WE HAVE ALWAYS HAD  WHETHER IT WAS MYSELF IT WAS  NUMBER THE FIRE DEPARTMENT  POLICE DEPARTMENT OR OTHERS,  INCLUDING MOST RECENTLY AND  CHIEF TITUS WAS UP THERE I WAS  WITH THEM I COULD COST WAS. WE  ALL TOOK TURNS GOING UP FOR  IN. I WAS UP THERE FOR OKAY I  CAN TELL YOU ONE THING WE HAVE  AN EXCELLENT RELATIONSHIP WITH  SARASOTA COUNTY GOOD I'M NOT  SAYING THAT THERE AREN'T SOME  BUMPS IN THE ROAD. THAT'S  GOING TO HAPPEN. BUT WE HAVE  GOTTEN SO BIG WE'VE ALWAYS HAD  OWN IOS YEAR SINCE THE DAY I  STARTED WE STARTED OUT STATION  81. THAT'S WHERE WE OPERATED  EVERYTHING THAT GRA QUITE  HONESTLY WE HAVE SO MANY  THINGS GOING ON HERE WE'VE GOT  EXAMPLES ROAD AND DRAINAGE IT  WILL OPERATE OUT OF A  BUILDING. IT IS SUBSTANDARD  AND GOT HIT BY AND THANK GOD,  NOBODY WAS HURT KNOW SEE IS  ONE THING BUT IF YOU REALLY  LOOK AT THE BIG PICTURE AND  ALL STAFF AND ALL THAT WE MAY  NEED SOME SUBSTATIONS BUT ALL  THAT BEING SAID WE'RE THE  CONDUIT OF THE COUNTY TO CARRY  OUT OPERATIONS TO THE  LEGISLATION WE HAVE TO GO  THROUGH THEM ON CERTAIN THINGS  BUT I CAN TELL YOU SURE I'M  STANDING HERE. THEY INVESTED A  LOT OF MONEY INTO THE CITY,  ESPECIALLY WHEN WE GOT HIT BY  HURRICANE CHARLEY THAT WAS NOT  THE FIRST TIME PRICE FOR  WHAT'S GOING ON THOSE 4 SPOTS  THAT'S THE SECOND OR 3RD TIME  MCCAULEY WATERWAY. PERSONALLY  ASKED MY HUSBAND'S BOSS WAS  THE HEAD COUNTY ENGINEER TO  HELP US UP DESIGNED IT WE HAD  GUYS COME WITH THEIR EQUIPMENT  HELP FROM THE COUNTY SO OVER  THE YEARS AND IT'S NOT JUST  HURRICANES. WE'VE GOT OTHER  FLOODS. WE'VE HAD FIRES ALL  THAT TYPE OF THING IT ALWAYS  BEEN THERE BY BUT CHIEF TITUS  IS RIGHT GOT TO THE POINT. WE  HAVE GOT TO HAVE OUR OWN  FACILITY BECAUSE WE JUST CAN'T  YOU KNOW WE NEED TO TALK  ABOUT. SHOULD GO UP TO  SARASOTA AND JUST EVERYBODY  YOU CAN'T LEAVE THE CITY WE'VE  GOT TO BE HERE FOR THE  EMERGENCY I FELT GUILTY GOING  UP FOR IMPROPER DAHLIA BUT  THAT'S WHAT'S NECESSARY. YOU  KNOW WE HAVE AN EXCELLENT  RELATIONSHIP. I JUST WANTED TO  KIND OF PROVIDE A LITTLE  CONTEXT FOR THAT WE THEY HAVE  BEEN VERY GOOD WITH US AND YOU  KNOW, ESPECIALLY WHEN WE DID  HAVE THE RESOURCE AND  PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERS AND ALL  THAT AND THAT'S THAT COST A  LOT OF MONEY THEY THEY SAY  THIS A LOT OF MONEY SO I JUST  WANT TO PROVIDE A LITTLE  CONTEXT AND I AND I APPRECIATE  THAT AND MY POKING ITS MORE IN  TERMS OF.  >> WE HAVE GOTTEN SO BIG YES  AND THIS NEEDS ARE GREAT. AND  WE JUST NEED TO SMART AND  INCLUSIVE ABSOLUTELY MOVE  FORWARD OK, THANK THANK I  THANK COMMISSIONER AVERAGE.  >> SINCE YOU HAVE ANY  QUESTIONS OR.  I THINK AT. YES MA'AM.  >> THANK YOU FOR LETTING GO  BEFORE COMMISSIONER  >> WORKER.  >> THIS THIS IS A VERY GOOD  PLAN PUT I REMEMBER VERY WELL  I WAS MAYOR AT THE TIME. AND  I'M GOING TO HAVE TO DISAGREE  WITH COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL ON  WHERE THE COMMISSION WAS  INVOLVED IN CERTAIN THINGS ON  THIS PROCESS. YES, WE ARE  DECISION MAKERS WE ARE THE  LAWMAKERS BUT WE HAD EMERGENCY  MEETING WE WERE BROUGHT UP TO  SNUFF AND EVERYTHING THAT TOOK  PLACE IN AN EMERGENCY RIGHT  NOW THEY THEY DON'T COME TO  THE COMMISSION AND SAY HEY  THIS HOUSE IS ON FIRE AND WE  SENT A FIRE TRUCK THERE. AND I  THINK IF WE WERE INVOLVED IN.  HE FEE PROCESS AND WE HAPPEN  TO BE IN CONVERSATIONS WITH  STAFF MEMBERS. I THINK THAT IS  A LITTLE ODD AS WELL  COMMISSIONER SO SO SAID WE  SHOULD DO THIS WE SHOULD  BUSINESS THAT'S NOT PART OF  EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT TEAM TO  ITS PART TO GO OUT THERE AND  AND HELP THE CITIZENS, THE  BEST I CAN AND WITH THAT THE  ONLY FEW SECONDS THAT I SEEN  THAT WERE MISSING OUT OF THIS  REPORT THAT I WOULD LIKE TO  POSSIBLY SEE INCORPORATED  BECAUSE THROUGHOUT THE AND I  WAS MOSTLY WITH THE CITY  MANAGER AT THAT TIME. BUT WHEN  GO INTO FIELD. YOU WOULD SEE  TONS OF VOLUNTEERS AND THEIR  ATV'S LOPES AND DIFFERENT  AREAS OF OUR COMMUNITY TRYING  TO HELP OUR EMERGENCY  RESPONDERS SO I WOULD LIKE TO  SEE SOME SORT A YOU KNOW MAYBE  VOLUNTEER GROUP FOR EMERGENCY  MANAGEMENT PUT TOGETHER WITH  THE SAME TYPE OF TRAINING THAT  YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT GIVING  STAFF UPDATING TRAINING. THIS  WAY WE COULD HAVE BEEN ON CALL  LIST FOR VOLUNTEERS THAT WOULD  BE IN THE AREA. THEY WOULD  KNOW WHAT THERE IS TO DEPLOYED  I KNOW IT'S NOT A PERFECT  WORLD WHERE OK, IT'S GOING  RAIN ON SOMETHING OR WE  DEPLOYED THERE. NOW WE HAVE WE  HAVE AREAS THAT THEY WOULD GO  TO AS A SECONDARY AUXILIARY  POINT TO GO AND THEN ATTACKED  THE PRIMARY AREA. SAME WITH  THE FOOD DROP-OFFS AND  DISTRIBUTIONS. IS A PERFECT  PLACE FOR THE COMMISSIONERS TO  GO OUT HELP THE CITIZENS AND  PASS OUT WATER AND FOOD AND  STUFF LIKE THAT AND ENGAGE  WITH THE CITIZENS TO FIND OUT  WHERE THEIR ISSUES ARE WHERE  ARE THEY FROM WHAT AREAS ARE  IMPACTED MOSTLY AND THEN BRING  THAT IMPACT IN FALL BACK TO  THE EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT TEAM.  BUT TO BE HANDS-ON I I DON'T  SEE IT SEE IT IS BENEFICIAL. I  DO SEE IT AS A HINDRANCE. YOU  KNOW DROP-OFF FOLKS HAVE  SPECIFIC DROP-OFF FOR SUPPLIES  LIKE YOU KNOW THE PUBLIX  PARKING LOT THE CHURCH. NOW IF  THOSE AREAS ARE AFFECTED WHEN  YOU HAVE A SECOND THERE IT NOT  AT THE CHURCH WILL GO OVER TO  THE WINN-DIXIE PARKING LOT.  BUT AT LEAST WE HAVE AREAS  THROUGHOUT THE CITY THAT EACH  CITIZEN CAN GET TO A FOR  CRANBERRY MAY NOT BE ABLE TO  MAKE IT TOO. THE CHURCH. SO  HOW DO WE DISPERSED ALL THE  STUFF THAT CAME IN. WE HAD A  LOT OF PHONE CALLS FROM AREAS  THAT WANTED TO BRING STUFF  DOWN AND DONATIONS DO WE HAVE  TO HAVE A COMMISSION MEETING  SO THAT NOW IT'S LIKE BRING  IT, LET'S GET IT OUT THERE,  LET'S GET INTO THE CITIZENS. I  FEEL THAT THE WAY THAT WE'RE  DOING OUR YOU'LL SEE IS VERY  PROPER RIGHT NOW WITH A LITTLE  TWEAKS A LITTLE BIT MORE  COORDINATION AND ONE THING  THAT HASN'T REALLY BEEN  BROUGHT UP YET IS CHARLOTTE  COUNTY. WELCOME NEWS OUR  EMERGENCY RESIDENCY AS WELL  BECAUSE. JUST ABOUT CHARLOTTE  COUNTY IS A FLOOD ZONE. AND AS  I WAS AND WHAT I WAS TOLD  RECENTLY AS THEY ARE LOOKING  TO BUILD IOC AT THE COST OF A  100 MILLION DOLLARS OR AN  UPWARDS TO AND THERE. SO STILL  A TEASE NOW ARE NOT CURRENTLY  RATED OR CERTIFIED VOTE BY THE  STATE. FOR A HURRICANE  PREPAREDNESS. SO THERE'S WE  COULD HAVE AN INFLUX OF A LOT  OF DIFFERENT PEOPLE BESIDES  ENGLEWOOD AND SOUTH VENICE  INTO PORT. HOW DO WE PLAN FOR  ALL THIS THAT'S WHERE THE OC  TEAM GETS TOGETHER AND AND  THEY THEY PUT THEIR BRAINS  TOGETHER AND COME UP WITH THE  BEST SOLUTIONS BECAUSE IT'S  THEIR PROFESSION. IT'S NOT THE  COMMISSION'S PROFESSION, IT'S  THEIR PROFESSION. AND  BASICALLY THAT'S ALL I SO  RIGHT THERE.  >> THANK YOU. VICE MAYOR. YEAH  I A.  >> WHAT I THOUGHT THAT'S A  GREAT REPORT. MEAN IT WAS. SO  WELL DONE AND SO FEDERAL SO  KUDOS TO AND WE WANT TO WORK  ON THIS THIS QUITE A FEAT. AND  I WANT TO ECHO WHAT  COMMISSIONER PETE THE ONE  THING I NOTICED THAT WASN'T  ADDRESSED AND AND WHICH REALLY  PLAYED A BIG IMPACT, AFTER THE  STORM SO WAS COMMUNITY  ENGAGEMENT INVOLVEMENT I KNOW  IN AREA HEART WE HAVE CERTAIN  GROUPS. CITIZEN EMERGENCY  RESPONSE TEAMS. ONE GROUP IN  PARTICULAR HAS BEEN THERE  FACING WITH OUR FIRE CHIEF AND  AND WORKING TO TRY TO  COORDINATE THOSE ACTIVITIES  AND I THINK THROUGHOUT THE  CITY THAT COULD BE HUGE HUGE  HELP. YOU KNOW I ALSO WANT LET  YOU KNOW. EMERGENCY RESPONSE  THAT YOU KNOW THE LAST THING  AN EMERGENCY I WOULD WANT TO  SEE US. IT'S LIKE. PEOPLE  CALLING UP COMMISSIONER WHAT  DO YOU THINK ABOUT THIS THAT  LET THE PROFESSIONALS HANDLE  THIS. THIS IS NOT I MY THING  LIKE NOW THAT THE CHURCH AND  WATER AND SUPPLIES AND THAT'S  PROBABLY LIKE WHAT I WAS  QUALIFIED TO DO. AND SO YOU  KNOW THERE ON THAT, BUT I  THINK COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT A  BIG PART AND AND ESPECIALLY IN  THE AFTERMATH THERE WERE SO  MANY PEOPLE WANT HELP IN EVERY  WHICH WASN'T REALLY A PIECE  THAT IN THIS REPORT I THINK  THAT THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL I  THINK. YOU KNOW IT JUST HELPS  US RECOVER THAT MUCH MORE  QUICKLY AND I THINK IT IN THE  END FOR SO IT WOULDN'T REALLY  WANT TO GREAT GREAT REPORT I  REALLY FIND FABULOUS READ WAS  LIKE REALLY WENT AWAY. BUT  GREAT I MEAN WE HAVE IT'S IT'S  A PLANT A LIVING DOCUMENT SO  IT'S IT'S NEVER GOING TO BE.  PERFECTION AND AND LET'S FACE  IT, YOU KNOW, I'M GLAD JULIE  CAME AND SAID THE THING SHE  DID ABOUT THE COUNTY YOU KNOW  WE DO. KIND OF BEAT UP ON THE  COUNTY WANT SO WHILE THE TRUTH  OF THE MATTER IS THAT THE  COUNTY DOES A WHOLE LOT MORE  THAN SOMETIMES WE REALIZE WE  ARE PART OF THE COUNTY AND  THEY TRY TO HELP WHERE THEY  CAN AND AND I DON'T THINK WE  SHOULD HOLD IT ALWAYS AGAINST  THEM. BUT YOU KNOW WE NEED TO  THEM ACCOUNTABLE AS AS WE DO  PAY GOOD CHUNK OF DOLLARS TO  THE COUNTY FOR SERVICE. BUT  WHAT THEY DO HELP AND THEY  HAVE HELPED AND THEY SHOULD BE  RECOGNIZED THAT COLLABORATION  RELATIONSHIP NEEDS TRADE. WE  ARE NOT ADVERSARIES. WE'RE ALL  THE SAME PAGE HERE. WE'LL HAVE  TO I THANK YOU.  >> I HAD QUESTION ARE THE  SCHOOLS WHEN THEY'RE USED  SHELTERS LA MARQUE WAS  DESIGNATED AS A SPECIAL NEEDS  SHELTER AND THEY HAD TO BE  EVACUATED. SO.  >> SAY SOMETHING ABOUT  SHELTERING FROM CERTAIN YES,  THAT MAN MICHAEL SO THIS IS  ONE OF THE DIFFICULTIES THAT  THAT I THINK THAT WE TRIED TO  VERY POLITELY APPROACH AND  LET'S FACE IT YOU CAN'T PUT  EVERY NUANCE OF EVERY CONCERN  INTO THE REPORT YOU HAVE TO  REALLY WORK HARD TO TO FOCUS  ON THOSE THINGS THAT CAN  AFFECT CHANGE IN THOSE THINGS  WILL HAVE VALUE AND ONE OF THE  THINGS THAT IS REALLY REALLY  CLEAR IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU  SAID. MANY OF MANY HAVE SAID  SO FAR THE GROWTH OF NORTH  PORT IS SIGNIFICANT. THE  IMPACT IS SIGNIFICANT TO  OPERATIONS. SO HAVING AN  EMERGENCY OPERATIONS  CAPABILITY TO ADDRESS AS AN  ENTITY IS AS A GOVERNMENT  MAINTAIN THE HEALTH SAFETY AND  WELFARE. IT'S A CENTRAL. IN  FLORIDA MUCH OF THE ROLE OF  EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT AND  DISASTER RECOVERY SITS WITH  THE COUNTY TO COORDINATE. THAT  THAT'S VALUABLE AND HAS A  PURPOSE FOR THAT. BUT IT ALSO  DOESN'T MEAN THAT THE  MUNICIPALITY DOESN'T HAVE A  ROLE IN ADVOCATING FOR ITSELF  AND ITS MEMBERS. ONE OF THOSE  EXAMPLES SHELTERING. SHELTER  OPERATIONS IS COORDINATED THE  COUNTY LEVEL. AND THAT WAS ONE  OF THE THINGS THAT. THE  FACILITIES THAT ARE BEING  ESTABLISHED SHELTERS AND  PLEASE CORRECT ME IF I'M G  WERE DESIGNATED BY THE COUNTY  AND BY THEIR VOLUNTEER  ORGANIZATIONS SUPPORTING THAT  THEY WERE NOT DESIGNATED BY  THE CITY. AND I BELIEVE THAT  ARE RUN BY THE COUNTY OR THE  NONPROFITS.  >> THAT'S CORRECT. SO THE  COUNTY SHELTERS FOR EVACUATION  CENTERS ARE STAFFED BY THE  COUNTY THERE WERE LIKE COUNTY  STAFF OR OWN ON THE LOCATION.  DECISION OF WHEN TO OPEN  SHELTERS IS ONE OF ONE DONE BY  COUNTY. I AGREE THAT ANOTHER  COLLABORATION PARTNERSHIP  OPPORTUNITY BECAUSE WE VERY  MUCH STAKE EVACUATION. CENTERS  SERVING OUR COMMUNITY AND THE  SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES THAT  THE PARTNERSHIP PROPERTY AND  WE MONITOR THAT THE CITY, YOU  KNOW SEA LEVEL TO SEE IF THERE  IS ADDITIONAL NEED THERE. SO  THAT'S THAT IS WHEN THOSE  PARTNERSHIP.  >> ALL RIGHT SO GETTING BACK  TO MY QUESTION ABOUT THE  SPECIAL NEEDS SHELTER SO  SHOULD ASSUME THAT THAT'S  GOING TO BE USED AS A. THAT'S  WHEN SHELTER MARKET THAT HAD  TO BE EVACUATED. I CAN'T SPEAK  TO HAPPENED. ACTUALLY SOME  COME TO AN ARREST THE FRONT.  ♪ ♪ I WANT HEAR DURING ADDRESS TO  THE U.S..  >> RECORD JULIANA BILLY  ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER SO  ACTUALLY HAVE HISTORY WITH THE  LAMAR FACILITY. MY MOTHER WAS  THERE AND TYPICALLY THEY LIKE  TO USE MARKETS VERY FITTING  THE WAY IT'S LAID OUT ITS VERY  LARGE. THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE  THAT GO THERE FROM OUR CITY  AND THERE'S MANY NURSES  DOCTORS AND WHAT HAVE YOU. SO  I HAD TO GO PICK HER UP TAKEN  THE HOSPITAL WHEN I GOT THERE  THEY WERE SOME OF THE WRECK  THEY YOU KNOW, LETTING PEOPLE  GO HOME. BUT WHAT THEY ALSO  DID WAS THEY WERE BUSING SOME  OF THEM NEEDED TO STAY WITH  FAMILY MEMBERS CAN GET THEM  FOCUS LET'S ANSWER A STAR  WHERE IT SO THEY ALWAYS WHAT'S  NICE ABOUT THAT IS THEY MAKE  SURE PEOPLE ARE TAKEN CARE OF.  WHAT HAPPENED UNFORTUNATELY  DURING. AND IS IT FLOODED. IT  GOT FLOODING, TO SAY THAT YOU  KNOW WAS IN A VERY AS YOU KNOW  HOW BADLY AND WAS THE STORM.  WE DON'T KNOW THEY'LL USE IT  AGAIN I WOULD VENTURE TO SAY  IT PROBABLY WILL I DON'T KNOW  IF THEY DON'T ANY HARDENING.  HELP PRECAUTIONS SO THAT THEY  DON'T GET FLOODED AGAIN. IT  WAS A VERY VERY MASSIVE STORM.  BUT TYPICALLY THAT IS WHERE  THEY THAT'S WHERE THEY'VE BEEN  HAVING LAST FEW YEARS. PERSONS  WITH SPECIAL NEEDS FACILITY.  AND THE REASON I HAVEN'T THERE  IT IS VERY CALM A DAY THAT  HOLDS A LOT OF PEOPLE  >> OKAY THAT'S WHAT I KNOW  ABOUT THIS THAT I THANK YOU  FOR THAT THE OTHER THING IS  AGAIN WITH SHELTERS. WHAT WAS  THE OLD VENICE HOSPITAL USED  AS A RED CROSS SHELTER DURING  AND WE HAVE AND THAT I HAD TO.  BLAME ANYBODY BUT WE HAVE WHAT  I CONSIDER TO BE ADEQUATE SCAT  SYSTEM BY SYSTEM THAT. TO GET  FROM NORTH PORT TO THE ISLAND  THAN US THERE'S 2 TRANSFERS  YOU HAVE TO DO ON BUSES AND I  MENTION THIS BEFORE THAT I  HERE BEING AT CITY HALL I LEFT  ONE DAY AND THERE WAS A YOUNG  WOMAN WITH A TODDLER NEEDED TO  GET THERE AND SHE WAS JUST  OVER WELL SO I DROVE HER.  THERE THE MAN ASKED WHO I WAS  THAT'S HOW DESPERATE, YOU KNOW  I DON'T WANT PEOPLE TO PUT A  POSITION WHERE THEY'RE SO  DESPERATE, THEY CAN TAKE A  RIDE FROM A STRANGER I GUESS I  SAFE BUT.  >> THAT WAS THE THING THAT SHE  WAS GOING THROUGH AGAIN THAT'S  SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BEING  BUT OUT THERE THAT OUR SCOUTS  SYSTEM NOT JUST FOR EVERYDAY  USE, BUT WE HAVE EMERGENCIES  LIKE THIS IT'S IT'S WON'T  FULLY GET OUT BUT FOR PEOPLE  TO GET TO THE SHELTERS HAVE  ESTABLISHED FOR PEOPLE SO I  JUST WANTED TO BUT THAT OUT  THERE.  >> FOR  >> COMMUNICATION YES, I'M  HAPPY TO HEAR THAT WE HAVE TO  SET A LOT.  >> SATELLITE PHONES SO WITH  THAT.  >> YES RIGHT WHICH IS GREAT.  IS THAT WAS A BIG LACK OF  COMMUNICATION. I LIKE THE VICE  MAYOR SAYING BRING OR WITH I'M  SORRY THAT WAS COMMISSIONER  EMERGED THAT ORGANIZED  COMMUNITY GROUPS TO HELP OUT.  I KNOW THERE WAS SOMEBODY THAT  CAME OUT TO THE STATES.  ADJUSTED HILDEBRAND HAD ONE OF  THOSE AND WHAT CALL IT LOOKS  LIKE A BIG TANK, BUT IT'S HAS  ALL THOSE LIKE 6 TIRES ON IT  OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT HE  ACTUALLY CAME BY TO CHECK ON  ME BECAUSE MY  ♪ SOME MANY PEOPLE IN UP TO MY  HOUSE AND JAKE'S MOM. THAT IS  HUGE CONTRAPTION IS THAT YOU  JUST WANT TO KNOW THAT I WAS  OK. COORDINATING WITH WITH  PEOPLE IS REALLY REALLY  IMPORTANT THAT WE DO THAT WHEN  PEOPLE HAVE THAT THOSE TYPES  OF VEHICLES AND THINGS THAT  CAN HELP OUT SO. THAT IS GOOD  SOME HOPING THAT THOSE LINES  OF COMMUNICATION. STAY. STAY  OPEN. AND THAT'S IT THAT'S IT  FOR COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL I  JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT I  AM NOT MISUNDERSTOOD WITH MY  INITIAL COMMENTS.  >> BY NO MEANS AM I SAYING WE  NEED TO HAVE A COMMISSION  MEETING TO DO CERTAIN THINGS  WHEN WE'RE UNDER EMERGENCY. I  WOULD STATING AND I WAS  DISAPPOINTED WE WERE NOT  INCLUDED IN THIS REPORT WE  WERE NOT INTERVIEWED AS PART  OF THE DATA COLLECTION OF THIS  REPORT THAT'S WHAT I ALLUDING  TO I WAS NOT SUGGESTING WE  HAVE A MEETING TO SAY WHERE WE  CAN DISTRIBUTE FOOD,  ABSOLUTELY MY QUESTIONS GO  BACK TO THE TRAINING. IN THE  POWER POINT PRESENTATION IT  TALKED ABOUT TRAINING AND  INVOLVE THE CITY COMMISSION. I  DON'T WANT TO SPEAK FOR  COMMISSIONER, I'M RICH BUT I  BELIEVE. OR ANY OF MY FELLOW  COMMISSIONERS I BELIEVE ON THE  ONLY TRAINING MISSION ARE UP  HERE. I HAD BEEN TRAINED  THROUGH ICE. YES, G 4 '02 AS A  RESULT OF HURRICANE IRMA. IT  WAS BENEFICIAL TO GET THAT  TRAINING GRANTED IT WAS AFTER  HURRICANE IRMA BUT I WAS ABLE  TO OFFER ASSISTANCE BECAUSE I  HAD THAT TRAINING IN ANY WAY  SHAPE OR FORM THAT THE CITY  MAY NEED FROM. COMMISSIONER  HAS ANOTHER SET IT IS  IMPORTANT THAT THE COMMISSION  BE TRAINED BECAUSE IT KIND OF  GIVES YOU ALSO A LITTLE BIT OF  AN INSIGHT AS TO WHAT OC DOES.  THAT YOU WOULDN'T KNOW ABOUT  IF YOU DIDN'T HAVE THAT  TRAINING. I FOUND IT TO BE  VERY HELPFUL.  >> IN REPORT. IT ALSO STATES.  IT'S IN THE SECTION CALLED  COMMUNITY RESILIENCE AND  ECONOMIC STABILITY. AND IT  TALKS ABOUT THE  RECOMMENDATIONS THAT THE CITY  SHOULD CONTINUE TO REVISE  MASTER PLANS AND LAND USE AND  CURTAIL FUTURE DEVELOPMENT AND  HIGH HAZARD AREAS. WELL IT  MEDIA WHENEVER THAT I WHERE'S  THE HIGH HAZARD AREAS IN THE  CITY. WHERE THOSE IDENTIFIED.  AND AS WE'RE REDOING OUR ULDC  AND WE'RE REDOING OUR LAND  USE. DON'T YOU THINK THAT THAT  SHOULD BE PART THIS  CONVERSATION. IF WE'RE TRYING  TO PROTECT THESE HIGH HAZARD  AREAS AND NOT HAVE SO I WOULD  BE VERY INTERESTED IN KNOWING  WHERE THOSE HIGH HAZARD AREAS  HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED. I CAN  KIND OF GUESS WHERE THEY ARE  BUT I WANT THE POWERS THAT  KNOW TO BE ABLE TO COMMUNICATE  THAT TO ME.  >> I BUT USE THE WORD HIGH  HAZARD AREA BUT THAT WHAT  LEADS ME TO BELIEVE IS THAT  THAT IS THE FEMA MAPS I HAZARD  AREA BUT ANTHONY CONFIRM THAT  SINCE I WAS NOT INVOLVED IN  END IT SAYS HERE ALSO TO  REVIEW STRUCTURES IN HIGH  HAZARD AREAS AND DEVELOP  STRATEGIES TO REDUCE  DEVELOPMENT IN THOSE AREAS.  >> SO WITH THESE ARE  RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE  CONSULTANT BASED ON THEIR  EXPERTISE THAT WE REALLY OWE  TO OURSELVES TO REALLY LOOK AT  THROUGH THE ULDC REZONING  PROCESS. JUST SO MY FEET.  >> THERE ARE A COUPLE OF  THINGS FIRST AND FOREMOST  COMMISSIONER, THE. ANNUALLY  WILL FEMA HAS DESIGNATED  THROUGH WHAT IS CALLED THE  NATIONAL FLOOD INSURANCE  PROGRAM. THE AREAS OF HIGH  HAZARD FOR FLOODING. AND THEY  ARE DESIGNATED USUALLY AT THE  100 YEAR LEVEL AND THERE'S  SOME 500 LEVEL MAPPING AS  WELL. THAT IS THE HIGH HAZARD  AREAS THAT'S THE TRADITIONAL  TERM I BELIEVE YOU HAVE 270.  GIVE OR TAKE HOMES IN THE HIGH  HAZARD AREA THAT AND A PORTION  OF THOSE HAVE HAD REPETITIVE  LOSS. THE INFORMATIONAL  REPETITIVE LOSS WAS NOT  AVAILABLE TO AND IT'S  SOMETHING THAT'S KEPT  CONFIDENTIAL. AVAILABLE  THROUGH YOUR FLOODPLAIN  MANAGER THE CITY FLOODPLAIN  MANAGER. EFFORTS SHOULD BE  MADE TO CURTAIL DEVELOPMENT  AREAS THAT HAVE BEEN  IDENTIFIED VULNERABLE TOO. THE  10500 YEAR LEVEL FLOODING.  THAT IS THE STANDARD THAT  ACTUALLY EVEN PROBABLY NESTLE  FLOODPLAIN ORDINANCE EQUALLY  ADDRESS US. BUT THAT IS  SOMETHING BETTER FOR YOUR  MUNICIPAL FLOODPLAIN  COORDINATOR SPEAK TO AND  PROVIDE GUIDANCE ON BUT IT IS  SOMETHING THAT HAS THOSE MAPS  GET UPDATED WHICH OBVIOUS.  UPDATE THAT MAP. A LAND USE  HAS TO BE MANAGED ACCORDINGLY  IS THAT WE BECOME AWARE OF THE  HAZARDS OR THREAT.  >> THANK YOU FOR REITERATING  PRETTY MUCH WHAT MY CONCERNS  ARE AS WE GO THROUGH THIS ULDC  REWRITE AND REZONING OF THE  CITY.  >> OTHER QUESTION I HAD HAS TO  DO POINT OUT BY THE WAY OF  THOSE RECOMMENDATIONS ARE NOT  SOLELY FROM US AS CONSULTANTS  BUT IN COORDINATION AND WHEN  WE MET WITH THE VARIOUS  DEPARTMENTS AND HEARING  CONCERNS AND AND BUILDING  THOSE OUT SO THEY WERE DONE IN  A VACUUM AND JUST IMPORTANT  YOU REALIZE THAT.  >> WELL I THINK YOU FOR THAT I  DO APPRECIATE THAT. IN THE  RESORT REPORTS THERE WERE  VARIOUS. AREAS IT WAS  SUGGESTED TO HAVE THE  RECOMMENDATIONS COMPLETED BY.  AND I UNDERSTAND THAT THIS  REPORT IS DATED IN MARCH HERE  WE ARE APRIL AND A LOT OF  THESE. RECOMMENDATION SHOULD  BE CONSIDERED TO BE COMPLETED  BY SUMMER OF 24.  >> STORM SEASON OF 24 FALL OF  24.  >> I WOULD REALLY BE  INTERESTED IN AND  UNDERSTANDING WHICH OF THESE  REAGAN. WHICH OF THESE  RECOMMENDATIONS ARE GOING TO  GET THE PRIORITY. FOR  COMPLETION BY THAT DEADLINE.  SO THAT WAY THEN WE KNOW WHAT  WE HAVE WE DEFINITELY ARE  GOING TO IDENTIFY WE WILL NOT  BE ABLE TO BUT IDENTIFY THOSE  PRIORITY SO THAT WE KNOW WHAT  AREAS TO WORK ON FOR 25. OR  DURING THE WINTER OF SO. I I  DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN SPEAK TO  WHAT THOSE PRIORITY AREAS WILL  BE BUT EVERY SINGLE  RECOMMENDATION IS TO BE DONE  BY THIS YEAR. I THINK THAT WAS  ONE 25. BUT WHICH IS THE  CONSTRUCTION OF THE OC EXACTLY  SAY THERE ARE FEW  RECOMMENDATIONS THAT STAFF HAS  BEEN WORKING TOWARDS EVEN  BEFORE THE PLAN WAS DEVELOPED.  >> THERE ALREADY IN MOTION OF  IMPROVING COMMUNICATIONS AND  FINDING WAYS TO BE MORE  RESILIENT. SO SOME OF THEM  HAVE BEEN STARTED AND THEY'LL  CONTINUE UNTIL THEY'RE  COMPLETE.  >> WOULD REALLY BE INTERESTED  IN GETTING NOT KIND OF LIKE A.  THESE ARE THE RECOMMENDATIONS  HERE'S WHERE WE'RE WORKING ON  IT, HERE'S WHERE WE EXPECT TO  BE HAVING THE COMPLETED BY AND  GETTING THAT KIND OF A WOULD  BE EXTREMELY BENEFICIAL. YOU  KNOW. SPECIALLY THE CITIZENS  AND THE COMMUNICATION PART OF  IT.  >> SO WE'VE EVEN IDENTIFY SOME  OF THOSE WERE GOING TRYING TO  GO ABOVE AND BEYOND WHAT THE  TRAINING ONE JUMPS OUT ME SHE  OPPONENT, BUT IT SPOKE TO  THEIR OF ONLY TRAINING AND  TRISTAN SUPERVISORS WERE  TAKING ONE STEP FURTHER TO  TRAIN ALL CITY STAFF ONE. FEMA  THE FEMA IOUS CLASSES TO GET  THEM UNDERSTANDING WHAT SEE IS  I DON'T KNOW ALL MY HEAD, I'M  COMMISSIONERS HAVE BEEN  TRAINED SOMETHING THAT WE CAN  ABSOLUTELY OFFER AND IT'S  SOMETHING THAT WAS CAN DO TO  HELP CITY, GROVER PURPOSELY  AND WE CAN LOOK INTO THE REST  OF THE RECOMMENDATIONS TO SEE  HOW ALONG WE ARE EACH ONE OF I  THINK TAX  >> MY LAST COMMENT HAD TO DO  WITH THE TIMELINE I I LOVE  TIMELINES BECAUSE IT REALLY  SHOWS HISTORY OF THE EVENT AND  EVENT HAS THERE'S A LOT OF  MOVING PARTS TO IT AND YOU  GUYS TACKLED A LOT OF THOSE  HIGH-LEVEL PARTS. BUT THERE  WERE SOME AREAS THAT I KIND OF  WENT WAIT A MINUTE WHAT. I'M  ONE OF THEM IS THE CITY  OF NORTH PORT DECLARED A STATE  OF EMERGENCY AND THEN IN  PRINCE OF SEES IT SAID IT  EXTENDED EVERY 7 DAYS THROUGH  DECEMBER 10TH, 2022. WE ARE  STILL UNDER OFFICIALLY A LOCAL  STATE OF EMERGENCY FROM  HURRICANE IAN BECAUSE IT HAS  TO GET RENEWED AND WE JUST GOT  OUR LAST RENEWAL. IT WAS LAST  THURSDAY OR FRIDAY. SO TO SAY  THAT IT WAS EXTENDED EVERY 7  DAYS THROUGH DECEMBER 10TH  MAKES IT SOUND LIKE. IT'S AN  EMERGENCY IS OVER WITH WHEN  THAT IS ABSOLUTELY NOT THE  CASE. WE'LL HAVE THEM AND I I  WOULD APPRECIATE THAT THE CITY  OF NORTH PORT OPEN THE SHELTER  AT THE MARK CITY OF NORTH PORT  IS NOT OPEN SHELTERS THAT'S  THE COUNT. AND I ALSO BELIEVE  THAT TIMELINES ARE ALSO  IMPORTANT FOR A THE NEXT  DISASTER IT WAS LIKE OH THE  COUNTY OPENED THAT OR LOOK HOW  LONG THAT DECLARATION HAS BEEN  IN PLACE FOR. SO THAT NEEDS TO  VENT ALSO CORRECTED. BUT IT'S  ALSO IMPORTANT TO KNOW THAT WE  DIDN'T OPEN JUST ONE READING  THIS IT SOUNDS LIKE WE OPENED  ONE AND THEN AFTER THE STORM  WE OPENED THE ONE WOULDN'T  THAT'S NOT THE CASE WE HAD  MANY DIFFERENT. SHELTERS THAT  WERE OPENED. BUT WHEN YOU READ  THIS TO SOMEBODY WHO MAY NOT  HAVE LIVED THROUGH IT. WOULD  GO A WHILE THEY ONLY OPENED UP  ONE SHELTER FOR HURRICANE  UNITS VERY MUSLIM.  >> COMMISSIONER.  >> YES. ACTUALLY THAT COMES  FROM YOUR STAFF ONLY ONE  SHELTER WAS OPENED BY THE CITY  THAT WE WERE AWARE OF  REMAINING FACILITIES WERE  OPENED BY COUNTY AND  NONPROFITS. AND THE ONE THAT  WAS OPENED BY THE CITY WAS IN  COOPERATION WITH THE NONPROFIT  NOT GOING ALONE. I DON'T  BELIEVE YOU STEPPED ANY  SHELTERS, BUT YOU COORDINATED  ONE SHELTER OPENING IT AND I'M  SORRY CORRECTLY FROM LONG IT  WAS A RELIGIOUS FACILITY OR  CHURCH.  >> ASSISTANT PARKS RECREATION  DIRECTOR TRISH CHURCHES WE  OPENED A STAFF EMPLOYEE AT THE  MORNING A SENATE TO ENSURE OUR  STAFF IS READY FOR A POP  RESPONSE POST STORM.  >> AND THAT'S NOT ANYTHING SO  I'M GOING TO STICK BY MY  INITIAL COMMENT WE DO NOT OPEN  SHELTERS FOR EMERGENCY USE  OUTSIDE OF OUR STAFF. THE  SHELTERS ARE FOR CHARLOTTE  COUNTY. WHEN MEAN CAME THROUGH  THERE WERE PEOPLE FROM KEY  WEST USING OUR THEY'RE OPEN TO  ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE  DISCUSSED AFTER WAS PART OF  THE ACTOR ACTION THAT THE  COMMISSION WAS INVOLVED WITH  WAS HEY WE NEED TO MAKE SURE  THAT MAYBE CHARLOTTE COUNTY  STAFF COME DOWN AND HELP US  WITH CLEANING UP THE SHELTERS  BECAUSE THE SCHOOL BOARD IS  RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT IS OUR  SCHOOL BOARD FACILITIES, NOT  CITY FACILITIES. AND AND  POSSIBLY HAVING RESOURCES FROM  LAKE PD YEAR FIRE DEPARTMENT  FROM NEIGHBORING JURISDICTIONS  COMING IN AND HELP US WITH OUR  SHELTERS BECAUSE WE HAD EACH  ONE OF OUR SHELTERS HAVE ONE  OF OUR FIRST RESPONDERS IN  THAT. SO THOSE ARE THINGS THAT  ARE KIND OF MISSING IN THIS  REPORT AND ABSOLUTELY MISSING  IN THE TIMELINE THERE'S A FEW  OTHER AND ON PAGE THERE WAS  ONE WHERE DEPARTMENT OF  HEALTH. ISSUED A PRESS RELEASE  CLOSING I 75. DEPARTMENT OF  HEALTH DOESN'T ISSUE THOSE  KIND OF TRANSPORTATION. THINGS  JUST AGAIN.  ♪ OTHER PEOPLE IN THE FUTURE  GOING TO BE READING THIS AND I  WANT TO MAKE SURE THE  INFORMATION IS ACCURATE IS MY  UNDERSTANDING DEPARTMENT OF  TRANSPORTATION CLOSED NOT  DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH. MINE ARE  TYPE I DON'T KNOW MAYBE MAYBE  SOMEBODY THOUGHT IT WAS  DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH I DON'T  KNOW I JUST WANTED TO BRING TO  YOUR ATTENTION WE CAN MAKE  THOSE CLARIFICATIONS IN THE  REPORT WE CAN DO TO MAKE  CLARIFICATION REGARDING THE  SHELTER, THE SHELTER STAFF BY.  >> THE COUNTY AND THE SCHOOL  BOARD AND NOT SITTING THE CITY  DOES SIR, THE CITY WILL STAFF  OUR EMPLOYEE SHELTER, THE CITY  IS PART OF STAFFING AT TO THE  SHELTERS, POLICE AND FIRE.  CASE, THERE'S AN EMERGENCY  THERE IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING.  >> YEARS CHIEF OF SEVERAL  YEARS AGO THE SCHOOL WHERE  POLICE DEPARTMENT TOOK OVER  ALL THE STAFF OF THE. SO THAT  WE DO NOT HAVE THEIR MONEY.  THEY'RE PROVIDING ENFORCEMENT  SERVICES SHELTERS, WE WILL  RESPOND FIRMLY LEAD. BUT THEY  PROVIDE LAW ENFORCEMENT  SERVICES.  >> WAS HE A MESS THERE.  >> SO STAFFING FOR THE  SHELTERS IS ALSO OBLIGATION  CHURCHILL COUNTY WE DO NOT  ABOUT STOPPING FOR SHELTERS.  HAVING PASSED TO ASIA. WHEN  THERE'S EMERGENCY SOMETHING'S  HAPPENED WHERE THEY COULD GET  SOMEBODY THERE. BUT WE STICK  TO OUR GUNS PRETTY STRONGLY  BECAUSE WHEN THE STORM PASSES  THE SHELTERS ARE STILL OPEN  THERE ARE PEOPLE CHAIR AND  THAT TAKES AWAY FROM OUR  PERSONAL BE ABLE SPOT THE  COMMUNITY. SO WE WE WE PROVIDE  STAFF CITY EMPLOYEE SHELTER IN  CASES WHERE SHE THERE AND THEN  WE WILL RESPOND INTO THE OTHER  SHELTERS. AS WE'RE ABLE  SOMETHING HAPPENS THERE, BUT  TYPICALLY THEY USE PRIVATE AND  THE TRENDS WERE RUSSIAN CARE  OR THE USE. PROSECUTE RED  CROSS STAFF.  >> LIKE THAT I STAND CORRECTED  BECAUSE WHEN I TOOK THE  SHELTERS THAT FIRST WIN IRMA  CAME THROUGH. AND I GOT A TOUR  OF THE THERE WERE NORTH PORT.  PERSONNEL FIRST RESPONDERS AND  THINGS TO CHANGE THAT'S GOOD  TO KNOW EXCELLENT THANK YOU  FOR THAT CLARIFICATION A LAST  COMMENT I WOULD MAKE  MISSIONARY.  >> YOU'RE HITTING ON SOMETHING  THAT'S A VERY VERY IMPORTANT  POINT AND THAT IS COORDINATION  AND PLANNING FOR THESE  OPERATIONS DISASTER RECOVERY  OPERATIONS AND THAT HUMAN  NEEDS WHETHER IT'S THE COUNTY  OR THE CITY OR NONPROFITS  BUILDING THAT CO-OPERATIVE SO  THAT RESIDENTS AND THAT HUMAN  NEEDS ARE TAKEN CARE OF. IS  IMPORTANT AND HOW IT'S DONE IS  IMPORTANT. SO I APPRECIATE THE  CONVERSATION BECAUSE WE DO  NEED TO KNOW WHO'S GOING TO  PROVIDE WATER FOR THE  RESIDENTS OF PORT AND HOW WILL  BE FRIDAY WHAT THE  EXPECTATIONS ARE AND  COORDINATION EVEN IF IT'S  SIMPLY TRAFFIC FLOW AS YOU  POINT OUT HOW WE GET OUR  CITIZENS TO THESE REGIONAL  SHELTERS, SHELTERS ARE ALWAYS  AN ISSUE BECAUSE THERE ARE  REGIONAL APPROACH. THEY NEED  TO BE A REGIONAL APPROACH  BECAUSE OF HOW CENSUS  POPULATION CENSUS OF THE  SHELTER IS AFFECTED. BUT THERE  SHOULD BE SOME DISCUSSION OF  PLANNING AHEAD OF TIME AND  THAT'S WHERE THE EMERGENCY  OPERATIONS CMP WILL COME INTO  PLAY AND YOUR STAFF AND  WORKING WITH SARASOTA COUNTY.  >> I JUST HAVE ONE MORE ABOUT  YOUR BECAUSE THE ROAD NETWORK  WAS GREATLY IMPACTED AND  LOOKING AT YOUR TIMELINE IT  ONLY MENTIONED IN THE COFFIN  PRESSING WHEN ALL 4 OF THEM  WERE AFFECTED BECAUSE OF  HURRICANE IAN. I WOULD NOT  HAVE BROUGHT IT UP BECAUSE MY  COFFEE WAS IN THERE THEN IT  NEEDS TO REFLECT HOW LONG IT  TOOK FOR EACH ONE OF THINGS TO  COME UP.  >> SO HAS THERE IS A NEAR THE  TIMELINE IS A IS NOT A.  >> A COMPREHENSIVE TIMELINE WE  ADDRESSED OUR THOSE ELEMENTS  THAT WERE.  >> SIGNIFICANT AND THE  RESPONSE OR RECOVERY OPERATION  JUST SO YOU'RE AWARE. IT IS  NOT THERE ARE OTHER DOCUMENTS  PROVIDED A FAIR COMPREHENSIVE  TIMELINE WE PROVIDED IT  BECAUSE WE WANTED PROVIDE  INFORMATION NOT IMPACTED HOW  THE REPORT OR COMMENTARY IN  THE REPORT WHERE THE THINGS  THAT SUPPORTED THAT  DISCUSSION. BUT THEY'RE  CRITICAL POINTS THAT WERE  ADDRESSED AND MAY HAVE MISSED  SOME. WE WERE TRYING TO  CURTAIL DOWN TO THOSE THINGS  THAT WERE CRITICAL ARE  EXTREMELY RELEVANT TO THE  RECOVERY OPERATIONS.  >> MISSION WE SO WE HAVE A  FORMAL AFTER ACTION REPORT  THAT STAFF HAS THAT HAS ALL OF  THE DOCUMENTATION AND  REPORTING INFORMATION THIS WAS  MORE OF A HIGHER LEVEL  TIMELINE WOULD LOVE TO SEE  THAT REPORT EFFECT AGAINST  COPY OF IT.  >> THANK YOU  >> OKAY FINISH NO ACTION  COMMISSIONER LANGDON.  >> YEAH, JUST A COUPLE OF  QUICK FINAL COMMENTS. I DO  WANT TO SAY BECAUSE I TEND TO  DIVE TO SOME OF THE DETAILS  THAT TROUBLE ME I DO WANT TO  SAY I WAS REALLY PROUD OF OUR  CITY AFTER AM AND I THOUGHT  EVERYBODY DID AN INCREDIBLE  JOB. AND AND I COMMEND YOU ALL  BECAUSE I KNOW IT'S REALLY  TOUGH CONDITIONS FOR  EVERYBODY. BUT I DO WANT TO  COME BACK JUST TO ONE POINT  AND THAT'S COMMUNICATION.  WE'RE IN A WEIRD PLACE HERE IN  FOOT BECAUSE WE'RE IN THE  MIDDLE OF 2 MEDIA MARKETS. AND  WE REALLY IN GENERAL NOT  SERVED WELL BY EITHER OF THEM.  ALTHOUGH THAT'S STARTING TO  CHANGE I THINK A LOT BASED THE  OUTBOUND EFFORTS OF OUR  COMMUNICATIONS TEAM. BUT I DO  WANT TO APPLAUD OUR  COMMUNICATIONS TEAM FOR  WORKING WITH WKBW TO DO THAT  BREAK-IN FOR EMERGENCIES.  REACH OF ANY KIND OF AN  EMERGENCY AND I THINK THAT'S  FAIRLY TO REST BUT I WAS ALSO  IT WAS A VERY WEIRD  EXPERIENCE. I HAVE ONE OF  THOSE LITTLE CRAY INC RADIOS,  YOU KNOW HAS A BATTERY BUT THE  BATTERY GOES THAT YOU CAN  CRANK IT UP. AND FOR A COUPLE  OF DAYS AFTER IAN I COULDN'T  GET ANYTHING AND AND I STARTED  CRYING CRANK AND I WOULD GET  SOMETHING OUT OF TAMPA AND  THEY HAD ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA  WHAT WAS GOING ON SARASOTA WAS  OUT FRONT MYERS WAS OUT. AND  IT OCCURRED TO ME I DON'T KNOW  IF THIS IS A PRACTICAL OR EVEN  IMPLEMENTABLE DECISION. I'M  JUST WONDERING IF WHEN WE.  WELL WE HAVE C IF IF WE COULD  HAVE THE ABILITY TO BROADCAST.  I THE E E O C OR INTEGRATE  WKBW BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT IN A  VERY ROBUST BUILDING AND I  KNOW THEY WERE OUT PROBABLY  FOR LONGER THAN WE WERE. SO I  I JUST THINK TO WITHIN OUR  OWN. CONTROL IF WE COULD HAVE  SOME WAY AFTER AN EMERGENCY  GET THE WORD EVEN IF IT IS AS  LIMITED AS THOSE OF A CRANK  RADIOS. IT WAS JUST IT WAS AN  AWFUL EXPERIENCE TO NOT BE  ABLE TO GET ANY INFORMATION  AND I COULDN'T WE WEREN'T  SUPPOSED TO DRIVE AROUND  ANYWAY, BUT I COULDN'T GET OUT  OF MY NEIGHBORHOOD BECAUSE IT  WAS FLOODING WHERE THERE HAD  NEVER BEEN FLOODING BEFORE SO  ANYWAY ENOUGH SAID, BUT.  >> I THANK YOU COMMISSIONER,  JASON COMMUNICATIONS MANAGER.  WE HAVE STRENGTHENED OUR  PARTNERSHIP WITH WKBW AND YOU  MENTIONED THE BREAK-IN WE HAVE  THE ABILITY NOW TO GO LIVE ON  THEIR AIRWAVES AND BROADCAST  WAS SOMETHING WE DIDN'T HAVE  SO WE CAN TAKE ADVANTAGE OF  THAT FROM OUR YOSSI REALLY  WERE EVER A LAPTOP. WE HAVE  THE SOFTWARE THAT OVER THE  INTERNET THOUGH DO IT OVER THE  INTERNET WE WOULD SERVICE  OBVIOUSLY BUT WORKING WITH  EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT HAVE THAT  CAPABILITY BUT WE'RE ALSO  LOOKING TO RENEW OUR  PARTNERSHIPS WITH BECAUSE IT  IS SUCH AN IMPORTANT OUTLET  NEW KIND OF LOSING INTERNET  COMMUNICATIONS PHONES AND  EVERYTHING SARASOTA SEE DOES  HAVE BROADCAST CAPABILITY AT  THEIR FACILITY AND SO WE WORK  IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THEIR  COMMUNICATIONS TEAM. SO IF  THERE IS A MESSAGE THAT WE  NEED TO GET OUT TO THE GENERAL  PUBLIC. WE HAVE THE BILITY TO  COORDINATE WITH TO GET THAT  MESSAGE IS THAT WE WANT TO GET  OUT. WHETHER WE'RE AT THE UC  OR NOT THEY THEY CAN PASS THAT  MESSAGE ALONG WITH SOME OF THE  TAMPA BROADCAST STATIONS TO  BROADCAST DIRECTLY OUT OF SEE  YOU HAVE THAT ABILITY AS WELL.  >> OKAY GREAT, THANK THAT'S IT  FOR ALL RIGHT.  >> COMMISSIONER DOW,  COMMISSIONER LANGDON PROP TO  SOMETHING ELSE WE USED TO HAVE  PRIOR TO TURKEY SEASON.  >> LOCAL HIM RADIO OPERATORS  WOULD DO A DAY  >> LIKE EMERGENCY TESTING.

I  APPRECIATE THE ECONOMIC  DEVELOPMENT TEAM, TAKING  RESPONSIBILITY FOR BUSINESS  TAX. I'M CURIOUS ONE WHY ARE  WE CHANGING A LOT OF THE FEES  FOR THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.  INTEGRATE WITH LA EVEN ONLINE.  I'M CURIOUS, YOU KNOW IT'S  SUPPOSED TO COME ONLINE THIS  TOWARDS THE END OF THIS YEAR.  WE'RE WE'RE A LONG WAYS AWAY  FROM THE ACTUAL  IMPLEMENTATION, I'M CURIOUS  WHY ARE WE CHANGING FEES TO  ACCOMMODATE A PROGRAM THAT  DOESN'T EXIST YET. NOW WAIT  UNTIL THAT IS BROUGHT ONLINE.  SCOTT THANKS FOR THE DISTRICT.  >> SO I'M NOT SURE IF  DESCRIPTION THAT YOU'RE  LOOKING AT WHAT I CAN TELL YOU  IS WE ENTRIES WE SO IS WHAT  OUR THESE MAY BE GOING INTO,  BUT  ♪ THAT'S NOT.  ♪ >> JUST SO YOU KNOW MY  PAPERWORK, IT'S AS FIRE PLANS  AND SAFETY FOR EXAMPLE, IT  SAYS. IN VERY MANY OF THE  DESCRIPTIONS REASON FOR CHANGE  THE FIRST ONE IN BUILDING  EMERGENCY RESPONDER  COMMUNICATIONS ENHANCEMENT  SYSTEM. REMOVING PER FLOOR  THAT'S A FOLLOW-UP QUESTION.  AND THE REASON IS TO INTEGRATE  WITH ACELA PROGRAM.  >> AND THERE'S MULTIPLE.  >> EXPLANATIONS FOR THE CHANGE  HAVING TO DO WITH US  >> I THINK PART OF IT IS THE  BREAKOUT IT'S NOT THE ACTUAL  REASON FOR THE CHANGE SO THERE  TRYING ASSEMBLE SO NEW  CONSTRUCTION AND REQUIRES FOR  CHURCH SIGNS BUILDING WAS  HAUNTED BDA A DIRECTIONAL FIRE  AND. THAT OF COURSE SOME  PRETTY SIGNIFICANT STAFF TIME  THROUGH BUILDING TESTED  DIFFERENT LEVELS. IT'S RIGHT  AND FINDS A SIGNAL SERVICES.  THERE WASN'T THERE WAS AN  EXACT FEE STRUCTURE FOR THAT  BEFORE IT'S NOT SOMETHING  INCLUDED SELLING GIVES US THE  ABILITY TO BREAK THAT OUT THAT  DIFFERENTLY.  >> AND I'M SORRY I HAVE TO DO  A LITTLE RESEARCH OF COOL  SPEAK MORE TO THAT SPECULATING  AS TO THAT'S WHAT'S WRITTEN  THAT WAY, BUT. WE ARE GOING TO  INTEGRATE GOING PARTNER WITH  THE SELLER. OUR FEE STRUCTURE  CHANGES AND EVERYTHING THAT WE  TURN LAST YEAR. FROM KIND OF  HERD OF MARKET ANALYSIS  BETWEEN WHAT. HARNESS OR KIND  SIGN WITH US TO TRY TO KEEP  SOMEWHAT CONSISTENT. I UP  >> THE FEES THAT WHAT WE'RE  CHARGING PEOPLE.  CHANGING BECAUSE OF THE CELL  UP WITH THE WAY TO FEES ARE  BROKEN OUT IN TRACKED IN ACELA  IS DIFFERENT SOMETIMES FROM  OUR CURRENT SYSTEM. SO YOU MAY  HAVE RIGHT NOW I OR A BUILDING  MAY HAVE. FEES THAT ARE  CHARGED TO. CONTRACTOR IN IRAQ  LOT TOGETHER RIGHT NOW UNDER  ONE TITLE IN OUR CURRENT  SYSTEM BECAUSE OF THE WAY THAT  SYSTEM WORKS WEARING ACELA  WE'RE GOING TO HAVE THE  ABILITY TO TRACK THINGS MUCH  DIFFERENTLY. AND IN MUCH MORE  DETAIL AND SO IT TAKES THAT  ONE FEE THAT WE'RE CHARGING  NOW IT CAPTURES A BUNCH OF  STUFF AND IT BREAKS IT ALL OUT  OF THE CATEGORIES FOR THE  FUTURE SO IT'S THE SAME AMOUNT  THAT'S BEING CHARGED. SOMEONE  THE SAME THINGS IT'S JUST THE  WAY IT'S GOING TO BE DESCRIBED  IN A CELL AND TRACK TO SELL  QUESTION.  >> SO AS NOT ONLINE AND IS  INTENDED TO COME ON LINE FOR  MANY MANY MONTHS.  >> OK AGAIN WE'RE IN APRIL. SO  WHY ARE WE CHANGING IT NOW FOR  SOMETHING THAT ISN'T HAPPENING  FOR AT LEAST WE'RE NOT  CHANGING IT NOW.  >> IT'S IT'S CHANGING IN THE  ACELA IT WILL BE CHANGED IN  THE ACELA PROGRAM. IN IT RIGHT  SO THEY'RE HAVING TO. THEY'RE  HAVING TO TRACK IT OR TRIED  BREAK IT OUT BECAUSE THE ACELA  GOES ONLINE. JUST SHORTLY  AFTER THE FISCAL YEAR SO BUT  WE'RE NOT CHANGING THE FEES  AND SELLS OKAY. THEY'RE THERE  IS A CHANGE IN THE FEES.  >> SOME OF THE NOBLE THAT THIS  JUST FOR PERFECTION. THIS IS  THE DISSIPATION FOR THE COMING  FISCAL YEAR NOT PER FISCAL  YEAR.  >> WE DO THIS EVERY YEAR WE SO  THIS IS NOT COMING BACK AS AN  ORDINANCE BETWEEN NOW AND  SEPTEMBER IT WILL BE IN BUT IT  WILL BE EFFECTIVE.  >> THANK YOU.  >> HELPS MENSA. ALL RIGHT NOW  DON'T GO ANYWHERE.  >> CHIEF.  >> GOING BACK TO MY FIRST A  EXAMPLE, IT SAYS RIGHT NOW  WE'RE CHARGING A $150 TO  15,000 SQUARE FEET, MAX, PLUS.  $75 PER ADDITIONAL FLOOR. OUR  $5,000 PER SQUARE FOOT. BUT  WHEN WE GO TO. I IT. YOU'RE  TAKING OUT TO THE PER  ADDITIONAL FLOOR. WHY ARE WE  TAKING THAT OUT.  >> SCOTT STILL HEAR CHIEF I  GET THAT EXACT INC FOR YOU I  BELIEVE WITH I ASKED THE FIRE  MARSHAL WHEN HE LOOKED AT  EXTRA TREES THERE ARE SOME  DISCUSSIONS CHAMBER OF  COMMERCE AND SOME OTHER THINGS  AUSTIN COME THINGS THAT CAN BE  CONSOLIDATED CERTAIN PLACE  THAT SHOULD BE. WE HAVE TO  HAVE THEM IN THERE HOW DOES  THAT CHANGE THINGS WE DON'T  HAVE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT  MULTI WHEN HE LOOKED SOME  INDUSTRIES THAT WE ADOPTED FOR  THE CURRENT YEAR THAT WE'RE RE  EVALUATE THEM LOOKING AT NEXT  YEAR AND TRY TO THEM. IT'S A  REASONABLE TO TRY TO THEM GO  IS THAT NECESSARY TRY SO SO  AGAIN I DON'T THINK THAT  ASKING ABOUT TAKEN OUT I  APOLOGIZE HAVE YOU VERY  QUICKLY IF YOU WANT SOMEONE.  THERE'S ALL THIS WORK IN  HURRY. HIGH LEVEL DISCUSSION  ABOUT IT. BUT I UNDERSTAND WHY  HE ON THAT GO BACK AND LOOK  SOME OF THOSE THINGS AND MAKE  SURE I WOULD INSIST THAT WAS  SURROUNDING AREAS IS THAT  NEEDED HE WAS TRYING TO DO IT.  IT STRUCK THE TIME OF HIS  PEOPLE THE EFFORTS WITH SOME  OF THOSE THINGS AND AND  RECAPTURED COSTS WHEN YOU LOOK  AT WHAT OUR FEE STRUCTURE FOR  WHAT OUR PREVENTION BUREAU  DOES. IT DOESN'T BRING IN  ENOUGH MONEY IN FEES OKAY FOR  THAT WHOLE EURO. BUT WE'RE  ALWAYS LOOKING AT IS THEIR  ABILITY TO OFFSET SOME OF COST  A LITTLE BIT MORE CITIES GOT  MUCH DOES YOUR WE'RE SPENDING  A WHOLE LOT MORE TIME  PROVIDING THE SERVICES AND  EXTENDING THAT HAD TO CROUCH  AND A LITTLE BIT SO LOOKING AT  HOW WE OFFSET SOME OF THOSE  COSTS THE BUSINESS COMMUNITY  AS WELL AS RESIDENTIAL  COMMUNITY WHEN WE LOOK AT A  FEW STRUCTURES WHOLE REASON  FOR  >> LOOK FORWARD TO FURTHER  DISCUSSION ON ESPECIALLY  BECAUSE YOU'RE REMOVING PER  FLOOR AND IT SAYS HERE PER  ADDITIONAL 5,000 SQUARE FEET  SO. UP TO 5,000 SQUARE FEET IS  ONE THAT ADDITIONAL CHARGES  GOING TO BE INCURRED WHAT  HAPPENS TO SOME SOME BUSINESS  THAT MAY HAVE 4,900 90 SQUARE  FEET THEY WILL NOT BE CHARGED  UNTIL THEY REACH THE 5,000.  >> IF YOU WOULD LIKE AN ANSWER  TO FEEL MUCH MORE COMFORTABLE  LIKE FARMER BECAUSE WE'RE NOT  MAKING DECISIONS TODAY. I  WOULD APPRECIATE FOLLOW UP ON  WILL BE A UP FOR THE MEMO FORM  AND THEN IF YOU WANT TO DO SEE  STREAM I AND THERE ARE MANY  FIRE DEPARTMENT FEES THAT ARE  IN HERE THAT ARE NEW.  >> THAT ARE.  >> NEW FEES RELATED TO AGAIN A  CELL WAS NOT COMING ONLINE FOR  MANY MONTHS. SO THINK I'M NOT  SURE IF IT'S REALLY I'M NOT  SURE WE'VE GOT ONE WHAT THEY  WERE SAYING SO. WHAT YOU'RE  LOOKING AT IS THE STRUCTURE  THAT WOULD BE IN EFFECT  OCTOBER 1ST, THE 2 MONTHS  AFTER OCTOBER 1ST WAS WHEN THE  INTENDED I ACTUALLY THINK DAYS  WHEN THE ATTENDANT GROW UP  THEY FOR IS SO SOME OF THE  THINGS YOU SEE THAT ARE  REFERENCING IS INTO SPATIAL OF  WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT  FISCAL YEAR. DIRECT RESPONSE  TO YOUR EXACT QUESTION. AND I  MEAN CHECK FOR MARSHALL BUT I  DON'T BELIEVE WE HAVE ANY FEES  THAT ARE ADDED WE'RE CHANGE  SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE OF SOME  OF THE PROGRAM. AND IT'S A  LOOK AT THAT THAT'S WRITTEN IN  A MANNER THAT YOU INTERPRETED  IT THAT WAY WE WILL LOOK AT I  WAS REALLY SHE ATE THAT YES,  NO, YOU WANT TO MEET WITH ME  ANY TIME JUST GO THROUGH CITY  MANAGER TO GET THAT. WELL I  JUST WANT SURE SO THAT IT  THERE'S A REFUND FOR COURSES  AND IT'S IF IT'S RECEIVED 15  DAYS PRIOR TO THE FIRST DAY OF  THE COURSE.  >> I'M A STICKLER WITH THIS  WHEN I SEE 15 DAYS THAT  CALENDAR DAYS OR IS IT  BUSINESS DAYS. IT'S NOT CLEAR  IN HERE. SO WE MIGHT WANT TO  MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE ALL ON  THE SAME PAGE TO REMOVING HIM  GETTING UNITY.  >> THE. THANK YOU CHIEF, THANK  YOU.  >> I DO HAVE QUESTIONS FOR  PARKS AND REC, BUT IF YOU NEED  TO YIELD FOR SOMEBODY ELSE  I'LL BE HAPPY TO DO THAT TO  MAYOR TO CALL.  >> PARK SOME WRITTEN QUESTIONS  TO COMMISSIONER LANGDON  ACTUALLY MY.  >> UP.  >> I DIDN'T GET CLEAR AND I  THINK I'M HAVING SHIPPED.  >> IT'S CLEAR. JUST DID OKAY.  COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL YOU WANT  TO KICK OFF OUR SURE. SO PARKS  AND REC.  >> AND I REALLY WISH WE COULD  BRING THIS UP SO THE CITIZENS  AND PEOPLE IN THE CAN SEE WHAT  I'M REFERRING TO.  >> THE TRIBUTE PROGRAM. IN THE  REASONING IT SAYS THAT WE'RE  TRANSITIONING TO A PROGRAM AND  A POLICY AS PART OF THE  ADMINISTRATIVE REGULATION  PENDING REVIEW. WHY ARE WE  TAKING IT OUT ONE NOTHING HAS  BEEN DISCUSSED NOTHING HAS  BEEN BROUGHT FORWARD.  >> SO IS THAT UNDER LEGAL  REVIEW RIGHT NOW. AND WITH  RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE  CIRCLE OF ADVISORY COMMITTEE  TO IMPLEMENT THIS PROGRAM. AS  AN ONGOING SOURCE THERE. WE IT  WAS BEST AT THIS TIME TO HAVE  A REVIEW OF THIS PROGRAM AND  SEE BECAUSE THESE CAUGHT THESE  COSTS ARE EVER CHANGING AND  THE REALLY HARD TO SET IN  STONE AND THEY CONTINUE TO USE  THEM AS QASEM BENCHES  FLUCTUATED THINGS GO UP AND  DOWN ALL THE TIME. SO WE'RE  HOPING THAT WE CAN BRING THIS  BACK WITH A SOLID WAY TO MOVE  FORWARD WITH THAT AS AN  ADMINISTRATIVE POLICY. OKAY  SO.  >> KNOWING HOW LONG IT TAKES  TO GET POLICY APPROVED AND  GOVERNMENT, ESPECIALLY A NEW  POLICY. DO YOU ACTUALLY  ANTICIPATE THAT TO BE  COMPLETED BY THE EFFECTIVE  DATE OF THIS OF 10 1.  >> WE DO HOPE THAT WE CAN GET  THAT ALL DONE AND AND WRAPPED  UP SO THAT WE HAVE SOMETHING  MOVING FORWARD TO THE FISCAL  YEAR, YES.  >> ALL RIGHT LOOK FORWARD TO  THAT THANK YOU.  >> THE.  >> THERE'S ALSO HAS REFUNDS OF  14 DAYS. AGAIN MY QUESTION  CALENDAR BUSINESS DAYS. THAT  PROBABLY NEEDS TO BE CLARIFIED  THAT IS NOT A CHANGE SO WE  WOULD HAVE TO JUST THAT OUR  BUT I CAUGHT BECAUSE OF THE  FIRE DEPARTMENT'S AND THEN I  WENT WITH ME THEY'VE GOT ONE  THERE  >> THIS THIS ONE CLARIFIES ITS  14 DAYS PRIOR TO THE OF THAT  SO WE JUST HAVE TO PUT IN 14  STRAIGHT DAYS ARE 14 CALENDAR  THAT MY FINAL QUESTION IS  UNDER THE TRIBUTE PROGRAM  THERE'S A RESIDENT NON  RESIDENT AND THEN IT GOES TO  WARM MINERAL SPRINGS.  >> WHAT DOES THE RESIDENT  NON-RESIDENTS APPLY TO WHAT  WHAT CATEGORY ARE THOSE  CHANGES TO THAT IS JUST I KNOW  IT'S ONLY SENSE. YEAH, WHAT DO  THOSE EFFECT SO THOSE ARE  RECREATION FEE LAST YEAR WITH  THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE  THERE WASN'T THIS SECTION WAS  MISSED ON THE ROUNDING  PORTIONS OF THE ONLY THING  THAT'S CHANGING IS THEY'RE  BEING ROUNDED TO BE CONSISTENT  WITH ALL OF THE FEES ACROSS  THE BOARD COULD VOTE.  >> ONE THAT HAS WHAT WHAT AREA  RECREATION MEMBERSHIP AN  EXAMPLE OF A RECREATION CAME  BETTER IS THAT THAT'S ALL I  HAVE OKAY. I HAD A QUESTION  ABOUT VICE MAYOR BROUGHT UP  THE.  >> WOMAN ELSE PRANKS. THAT'S  BECAUSE OF THE PASSES. BLESSED  I'M MISSING IT OR IS THAT NOT  IN THIS REPORT ABOUT THAT WE  HAVE A DAILY ADMISSION ONLY SO  WE HAVE DAILY ADMISSION. WE  CURRENTLY HAVE OUR ANNUAL  PASSES.  >> BUT THE CHANGES THAT YOU'RE  ONLY SEEING IN ARE THE  EXTENSION FROM THE 90 DAYS TO  A 180 DAYS ON THE 10 DOES IT  FOR THE 30 VISIT PASSES THOSE  ARE THE PUNCH PASSES THAT THEY  CAN KIND OF DWINDLE DOWN AS  THEY PURCHASED THEM. THAT'S  THE ONLY CHANGE WE'RE SEEING  COMING FORWARD WITH PROCESS IS  AN EXTENSION OF THE LENGTH OF  TIME THEY'RE GOOD  >> SO WHAT IS THE DAILY. ASKED  FOR RESIDENTS VERSUS NOT  RESIDENTS OR IS IT NOT NO  DIFFERENT 2015 WOULD BE A  RESIDENCY AND 20 WOULD BE A  NON RESIDENT OKAY AND THAT'S  HOW BEEN HOW IT'S BEEN AND  THAT'S GOING REMAIN REMAIN  MISSING. THE ONLY THING THAT'S  CHANGING IS WHAT'S RIGHT AND  OKAY. THANK YOU THAT WAS MINE.  ON THE QUESTION FOR THAT.  ANYTHING ELSE.  >> COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL YOU  LOOK LIKE KNOW I JUST I JUST  WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE  FULL TRANSPARENCY COMING 10  ONE THE USERS IF THEY ARE  NOT NORTH PORT RESIDENTS, THEY  WILL BE PAYING NON RESIDENT  RIGHT WHERE'S THAT IS A HUGE  CHANGE UP. IT'S A BIG CHANGE  AND WE MIGHT WANT TO HOW HOW  IS THAT GOING TO LOOK FOR THE  USER THAT HAS A PASS. THAT WAS  PURCHASED AS NON RESIDENT  RATE. BEFORE 10 1 AND THEY  STILL HAVE SOME PASSES THAT  THEY NEED TO USE UP AFTER 10 1  HOW IS THAT GOING REGION  DIRECTOR SOMEONE PURCHASED IT  BEFORE THE NEW FEE WENT INTO  EFFECT WE WOULD STILL HONOR IT  AT THAT RACE FOR AND LOOK FOR  SEPTEMBER TO HAVE A VERY LARGE  NON SHOULDN'T PURCHASE PASSES.  THANK BUT ANNUAL PASS WON'T  TAKE EFFECT UNTIL 10 1.  >> THE ANNUAL PASSES NOT  CHANGING AND THE ANNUAL PASS  IS IN EXISTENCE AT THIS TIME  THAT THE CHIEF THAT IS THERE  AND IT CAME BACK WHEN YOU GUYS  VOTED BACK IN.  >> THE PASSES. HE WANTS BACK.  WE WENT BACK TO THE STANDARD  RATE.  >> OKAY BECAUSE IT HAS AN  UNDERLYING ON IT LOOKS IT'S  YES, IT IS AFTER WATTS CORRECT  THAT THANK YOU I WOULDN'T SAY  I DON'T REMEMBER. OKAY, I  DON'T SEE OUT COMMISSIONER  EMERICH SHOULD YOU HAVE  ANYTHING TO ADD TO THIS.  >> NO MA'AM.  >> I HAVE OTHER QUESTIONS THAT  I WAS YES, PARKS BECAUSE YOU  HAVE OKAY SOMEBODY FROM SOLID  WASTE HELP ME UNDERSTAND WHY  DOING AWAY WITH ADDITIONAL  CONTAINERS, WHAT WHAT'S UP  WITH THAT PLEASE  >> ALWAYS BEEN THINGS  HAPPENING TODAY.

AND  COMPARED TO THE FIRST SO WE  DID THE FIRST CONTAINER THEN  THE SECOND TAYLOR, THE 3RD AND  THE 4TH WITH WE'RE JUST GOING  EACH CONTAINER. JUST YOU OK SO  WHERE DOES GO. SO.  >> LET'S PUT THIS IN PRACTICAL  USE I I HAVE A TRASH  CONTAINER. TO GETS PICKED UP  AS PART OF MY TAXES, MY  ASSESSMENT EVERY YEAR  RESIDENTIAL FOR RESIDENTIAL,  BUT IF LET'S SAY I HAVE A  LARGE FAMILY AND I HAVE TO  TRASH CONTAINERS, THERE'S AN  ADDITIONAL CHARGE OF 1541 FOR  SO TELL ME WHAT THAT'S  COMMERCIAL. YOU'RE TALKING  ABOUT SO THIS IS THIS IS ONLY  APPLIES TO COMMERCIAL.  COMMERCIAL GETS TOTES TO HAVE.  SO THEN. CONSTRUCTION  ROAD FEE.

WE HAVE NOT SEEN THAT  UPDATED REPORT WE HAVEN'T  APPROVED ANYTHING WE HAVEN'T  SEEN ANYTHING WHERE DID THIS  COME THE PUBLIC WORKS DIRECTOR  SO THIS INCREASE STILL BASED  ON  THE OLD.  >> MOVING US BACK UP TO WHAT  IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE  INITIALLY WE'RE TRYING TO GET  TO THAT THAT INITIAL RATE. IT  WAS NEVER ENFORCED AT THE  APPROPRIATE WEIGHT.  >> AND WHAT THE STUDY FOUND  WAS THE ACTUAL TOP END OF THAT  RAIN IS A LITTLE LOWER NOW  BECAUSE WE'VE DONE SO MUCH  WITH OUR REPAVING. THAT THE  THE ACTUAL COSTS WHEN WE GET  TO ACTUAL RATE LOWER, SO  YOU'LL SEE THAT RAIN AS WE  LOOK CLOSER WE'RE GOING TO  CRIMINALS.  >> THANK YOU FOR THAT CLARITY.

AND AT THE SAME TIME  WILL CONSIDER A RESOLUTION  ADOPTING THE CITY'S FEE  SCHEDULE OUTSIDE OF THE CITY  CODE CITY ATTORNEY COULD YOU  PLEASE ENLIGHTEN ME AS TO WHAT  THIS.  >> IS SAME MEANING.  >> YES, MAYBE THIS IS  SOMETHING THAT I THINK I'VE  MENTIONED EACH OF THE  COMMISSIONERS AND ONE ON ONES  AND OBVIOUSLY INITIAL TIMING  THAT COST THE CITY MANAGER ITS  REFERENCE IN THIS OLDER MEN,  IS IS NO LONGER ACCURATE. THE  CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE HAS  BEEN. WORKING ON DRAFT  DOCUMENTS TO MOVE THIS FEE  SCHEDULE OUT OF OUR CODE BOOK,  THE CITY CODE AND THE CODE THE  CITY OF NORTH PORT FLORIDA AS  OUR CODE OF LAWS AND THE  CITY'S THINGS ARE NOT LOST  DOES NOT FOLLOW BEST PRACTICES  FOR THEM TO APPEAR IN OUR CODE  BOOKING TO BE CODIFIED HAS  LAWS. ADOPTING THEM BY  ORDINANCE ALSO IS A LENGTHIER  AND MORE EXPENSIVE PROCESS  BECAUSE UNDER STATUTE AND  CHARTER REQUIRES 2 READINGS  AND PAID ADVERTISEMENTS AND  THE NEWS PEOPLE AND THEN IN  THE LAST LEGISLATIVE SESSION.  OF THE MOST LAST YEAR  LEGISLATURE ADOPTED STATUTE  THAT REQUIRES US TO ANALYZE  BUSINESS IMPACT ESTIMATES FOR  ALL ORDINANCES ADOPTED. HERE  YOU HAVE 20 SOME ODD PAGES.  TEENS SOME OF WHICH MAY  REQUIRE BUSINESS IMPACT  ESTIMATE WHEN YOU CHANGE THEM.  SOME DO SOME MAY NOT. SO ANY  CHANGE THE SCHEDULE THAT IS  CONDUCTED BY ORDINANCE WILL  REQUIRE THE CITY ATTORNEY'S  OFFICE TO OPEN IN A NEW FILING  ANALYZE WHETHER THAT  PARTICULAR PARTICULAR REQUIRES  A BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT.  THE ONES THAT DO THAT WOULD  REQUIRE STAFF TO DRAFT ONE OR  MORE BUSINESS IMPACT ESTIMATES  AND SAID THIS IS IMPACT  STATEMENTS IN STATUTE CALLS  THEM BUSINESS IMPACT ESTIMATES  AND POST AS ACCORDING TO LAW.  THAT QUITE THE TIME-CONSUMING  WHAT WE HAVE DISCUSSED WITH  THE CITY MANAGER IS INSTEAD OF  ADOPTING ORDINANCE DOING IT BY  RESOLUTION WHICH ALSO FOLLOWS  BEST PRACTICES AND WHAT MOST  OTHER ORGANIZATIONS DO. AND  THAT COULD STILL FOLLOW THE  THE TIMING OF THE CITY MANAGER  MENTIONED IN HIS INTRODUCTION  BECAUSE IF WE ARE TO DO THIS  IT WILL TAKE 2 STEPS IT WILL  TAKE ONE ORDINANCE IT REPEALS  THIS FROM THE CODE AND THEN TO  A RESOLUTION AND ADOPT THE NEW  FEE SCHEDULE FOLLOWING THAT  ANY AMENDMENTS TO THE SCHEDULE  WOULD BE DONE. I LUCIAN SO YOU  KNOW IF IF WE'RE GOING TO  FOLLOW THAT ROUTE AT THE FIRST  READING OF THE REPEAL  ORDINANCE IT'S THE WILL OF THE  COMMISSION YOU COULD STILL  HAVE A DISCUSSION ITEM TO  REVIEW A DRAFT. SCHEDULE IN  WITH THE CITY MANAGER REFER TO  HIS TIMELINE IS FIRST READING  AND THEN SECOND DATE WE COULD  DO SECOND READING OF ORDINANCE  AND THEN CONSIDER THE ADOPTION  OF THE RESOLUTION WITH THE NEW  FEE SCHEDULE WHICH WOULD  INCLUDE ALL OF THE CHANGES.  >> I AM NOT IN FAVOR OF LESS  TRANSPARENCY WHEN IT COMES TO  THESE KIND OF OFTENTIMES AS  WE'VE SEEN THE PAST.  >> FIRST READING WE. WE TALK  ABOUT IT AND DISCUSS IT AND  THEN BY SECOND READING WE HAVE  A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE A LOT OF  QUESTIONS BETWEEN SO.  >> I UNDERSTAND THE REASONING  BEHIND IT UNDERSTAND IT'S TO  SAVE STAFF TIME AT THE SAME  TIME. IT'S NOT VERY  TRANSPARENT. AND THAT'S JUST  MY OPINION STICK TO BUT I DO  WANT TO BE CLEAR FOR THE  RECORD COMMISSIONER THAT  RESOLUTIONS ARE.  >> ARE CONSIDERED.  >> IN PUBLIC MEETINGS THAT ARE  PROPERLY NOTICED ACCORDING TO  THE STATUTE AND ACCORDING TO  OUR CITY CHARTER.  >> SO THEY ARE DONE PUBLICLY  AND THEY DO ALLOW FOR PUBLIC  COMMENT IN PARTICIPATION I  UNDERSTAND, BUT IT'S ONLY ONCE  NOT TWICE IS THAT DONE BY  ORDINANCE. I'M SAYING ANYTHING  ELSE AND I QUESTION AS  COMMISSIONER EMRICH SAID HE  WAS GOOD SO WE WILL MOVE ON TO  PUBLIC COMMENT. SO I'M LOOKING  FOR MAYBE A MOTION FOR THIS  OR. I DON'T THINK WE NOT KNOW  AT THIS TIME, THAT WAS JUST A  DISCUSSION MOVING ON TO ITEM B  IN GENERAL BUSINESS 24 DASH 0,  4, 7, 9, DISCUSSION AND  POSSIBLE ACTION REGARDING THE  CITY CLERKS ANNUAL EVALUATIONS  SO CITY CLERK, THIS IS YOUR  ITEM. SURE. I JUST SO THIS IS  MY ANNUAL EVALUATION FOR MARCH  20 FOR 2023 TO MARCH 20.  >> ARE YEAH 2024, SO IT'S FOR  THAT 12 MONTH PERIOD. I DO  WANT TO REMIND YOU THAT I WILL  HAVE A SIX-MONTH REVIEW. COME  NOVEMBER. AND THEN FOLLOWING  THAT IT WILL BACK REVIEWS  AGAIN AFTER THAT. OKAY SO  NOVEMBER YOU THAT WE'RE GOING  TO HAVE ANOTHER. SO WHAT  YOU'RE SAYING MEMBER OF THAT.  LOOKING FOR.  >> QUESTIONS COMMENTS FROM THE  COMMISSION.  >> COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL,  >> I JUST WANT TO DO SINCE  THIS IS TECHNICALLY YOUR  ANNUAL EVALUATION. I WANT TO  SAY THANK YOU YOU'RE DOING A  GREAT JOB I ENJOY YOUR STAFF  WHEN INTERACTING WITH YOUR  STAFF. THE CULTURE WITHIN YOUR  DEPARTMENT IS ALWAYS VERY  UPBEAT I APPRECIATE THAT. I  DON'T KNOW WHAT THE WILL OF  THE BOARD IS PAY INCREASE AT  THIS TIME. WE MAY WANT TO  ENTERTAIN IT BECAUSE YOU WOULD  BE GOING ALL THE WAY TILL  NOVEMBER WHICH IS WHAT 7  MONTHS 6, 7 MONTHS AWAY.  >> MAYBE.  >> YOU KNOW INSTEAD OF THE  STANDARD INCREASE MAY BE A  SMALL INCREASE TO GET YOU  THROUGH THE HUMP AND THEN COME  NOVEMBER, YOU'LL GET YOUR FOR  ONE I DON'T I DON'T KNOW WHAT  THE CONVERSATION THE BOARD IS  I JUST WANTED TO THROW IT OUT  THERE AND START THE  CONVERSATION. BUT THANK YOU  FOR WHAT YOU'RE DOING FOR THE  CITY AND YOU'RE DOING A REALLY  GREAT JOB. THANK YOU. ALL  RIGHT COMMISSIONER LANGDON  THANK YOU MAYOR.  >> I I WANT TO ECHO THAT AND I  THINK ONE OF THE THINGS THAT  IMPRESSED ME. THIS PAST YEAR  AND I'M NOT SURE I I REALLY  TALKED ABOUT THE SUFFICIENTLY  IN MY EVALUATION OF YOU IS YOU  HAVE GONE THROUGH MAJOR  PERSONNEL TRANSITIONS THIS  YEAR. AND I CAN HONESTLY SAY  WOULD NOT SKIPPED A BEAT. YOU  KNOW THE NEW PEOPLE CAME IN IT  WAS LIKE THEY WERE HERE  FOREVER. AND THAT'S A REAL  TALENT. AND SO I REALLY  COMMEND YOU FOR THAT THAT  PARTICULARLY WELL DONE AND YOU  FOUND REALLY TERRIFIC PEOPLE  AND A NICE COMBINATION OF  HIRING FROM WITHIN. AND HIRING  NEW FROM OUTSIDE SO REALLY  WELL DONE I'M IMPRESSED BY  FELT GOOD. IT'S GOOD.  COMMISSIONER AVERAGE. YEAH.  >> NOW IF HE IS DUE FOR HER  ANNUAL EVALUATION RIGHT NOW  THAT'S FOR YEARS SHE HAS NOT  GOTTEN A RAISE OR A YEAR MY  >> YES, THAT'S RIGHT. YES.  >> OKAY SO THEREFORE, SHE'S  ENTITLED TO YEARLY INJURIES.  NOW WHEN WE GET TO NOVEMBER.  IT'S IT'S GOING TO BE OKAY,  YEAH, MAYBE A LITTLE INCREASE  MAYBE JUST BUT THEN THE  FOLLOWING NOVEMBER, SHE WILL  BE BACK ON TRACK FOR HER  REGULAR INCRESE SO I MY  SOLUTION ON THIS IS. IF WE  GIVE HER REGULAR INCREASE NOW  THAT IS DUE THEN SHE KNOWS  THAT SHE WILL BYPASS AN  INCREASE IN NOVEMBER. AND THEN  GO TO THE FOLLOWING NOVEMBER  FOR REGULAR RAISE DOES THAT  MAKE SENSE.  >> YES.  >> I MEANT FOR HEATHER.  UNDERSTAND IT. OK. I KNOW YOU  I KNOW YOU WOULD UNDERSTAND IF  YOU'RE A MATHEMATICIAN.  ♪ JUST TO MAKE SURE THAT WAS  CONVEYED TO YOU. A CITY PARK,  YES,  ♪ I UNDERSTAND OKAY SHE HAD A  >> BE AT THE LOW THE BOARD IF  THAT'S SOMETHING FEASIBLE THAT  WOULD MAKE SENSE BECAUSE I  DON'T WANT HER TO LOSE MONEY  BUT IS ON HER OWN EXTENDING.  HER EVALUATION DATE SO THAT  WOULD COME AT JUST PROLONGING  HER ANNUAL EVALUATION. THAT 6  MONTHS I WANT TO MAKE SURE SHE  GETS EVERY PENNY HUGHES DO.  >> ALL RIGHT SO WE HAVE THAT  OPTION ON THE TABLE  COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL YEAH, I  JUST WANT TO POINT OUT IF WE  GIVE HER FULL RACE NOW SHE'LL  BE GOING 18 MONTHS WITHOUT  ANOTHER RACE, IS ALL THE OTHER  CHARTER OFFICERS ARE GOING TO  GET A RAISE AT THEIR ONE YEAR  ANNIVERSARY SHE WILL SHE WILL  BE 6 MONTHS BEHIND. I YOU KNOW  I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S AN  ISSUE FOR THE OTHERS, BUT I  JUST FEEL THAT IF WE'RE GOING  TO GIVE HER HER FULL RAYS  TODAY BECAUSE IT IS HER ANNUAL  AND HER ANNUAL REVIEW, THEN  TIME. BUT COME NOVEMBER SHE'S  GOING SHE'S GOING TO BE BEHIND  THE 8 SHE'S GOING HAVE TO WAIT  UNTIL NOVEMBER OF 25 FOR  ANOTHER INCREASE. SO SHE'LL BE  GOING 18 MONTHS BETWEEN  INCREASED.  >> OKAY SO WHAT DO YOU  SUGGEST. MAYBE APP.  >> WELL I SUGGEST OKAY THING  I'D LIKE TO HEAR WHAT MY  ADMISSION TO POINT AND MINDED  BUT CLARIFICATION.  >> IT'S A YEAR NOW SO WE'RE  GOING MAKE A DECISION TODAY  BASED UPON THE YEARS WERE  THANK PERFORMANCE. AND THEN IN  NOVEMBER, WE HAVE A DECISION  TO MAKE WHICH IS DO WE AND  EVALUATION OF RAISE BASED ON 6  MONTHS OR DO WE HAVE CITY  CLERK TO 18 MONTHS THAT'S NOT  A DECISION FOR TODAY I DON'T  BELIEVE I THINK IT'S A  DECISION FOR HIM NOVEMBER.  YEAH. IT'S KIND BEEN.  >> ALL RIGHT COMMISSIONER  MCDOWELL KNOW YES.  >> WANTED AND AGAIN THIS IS A  CONVERSATION FOR NOVEMBER THE  NEXT RACE. YOU COULD DO IT  WHERE IN NOVEMBER, SHE GETS  HALF A RAISE IN FOLLOW  NOVEMBER SHE GETS THE OTHER  BUT THEN SHE'S GETTING A RAISE  PRIOR TO OR YEARLY THING WHICH  WOULD AFFECT OTHER CHARTER  OFFICERS THAT SHE IS THE ONLY  ONE THAT'S BRINGING THIS  FORWARD.  >> SHE IS VOLUNTARILY DOING  NONE OF THE OTHER CHARTER  MEMBERS DOING IT THEREFORE IT  SHOULD NOT IMPACT THEM UNLESS  THEY WANTED TO DO IT  THEMSELVES, SHE'S TRYING TO  MAKE IT THE COMMISSION FOR  WHEN PEOPLE COME ON BOARD  THEY'RE JUST NOT LOOKING AT  FOR A COUPLE MONTHS AND THEN  HAVING TO COME UP WITH  EVALUATION. JUST TRYING TO BE  A TEAM PLAYER. THAT'S WHY I  PUT THE EMPHASIS BACK ON HER.  IF SHE WANTED TO FORGO THE  NOVEMBER RACE AND THEN GET  BACK ON TRACK FOR ANOTHER  YEARLY RISE. THAT WAS THE ONLY  REASON I WANTED TO HAVE THIS  DISCUSSION ON THIS PART OF IT.  >> OKAY. TRY MOTION AFTER WE  GET PUBLIC TIME SURELY HOW IT  FLIES OKAY TO HELP GET THE  CONVERSATION MOVING ALONG ALL  RIGHT JUST THE ELEPHANT IN THE  WORK ROOM. DO WE HAVE ANY  PUBLIC COMMENT. THERE'S EYE  THERE IS NO PUBLIC  COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL TAKEN  MAKE A MOTION 2.  >> MAKE A MOTION CITY BASED ON  HER PERFORMANCE EVALUATION  ADJUST HER COMPENSATION.  EFFECTIVE MARCH 24TH, WHICH  WAS HER HIRED 8 OF 2024 TO BE  A 3% INCREASE IN COMPENSATION.  >> ALL RIGHT WE HAVE A MOTION  ON THE TABLE MADE BY  COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL IF THE  CITY CLERK AND 3%. INCREASED.  NEXT EDITION. IT'S ACTIVE  MARCH 24TH, WHEN ON WHICH WILL  GO UNTIL. NO THEY DON'T GO  UNTIL YOU HAVE ANOTHER  CONVERSATION RIGHT RIGHT. WE  HAVE A SECOND FOR  >> I'LL SECOND FOR DISCUSSION.  >> OKAY THAT'S SECONDED BY  COMMISSIONER EMRICH FOR  DISCUSSION.  >> YEAH, THE PART ABOUT.  >> THAT I'M LOOKING AT  COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL SO SHE  BROUGHT THIS UP FOR THE 3%  NOW. COME NOVEMBER WHICH SHE  RECEIVED THE OTHER HALF OF  INCREASE. AND THEN WE COULD GO  TO THE FOLLOWING NOVEMBER. SHE  WOULD GET A FULL INCREASE AND  BACK ON TRACK IS THAT WHAT  YOU'RE LOOKING DRY AND THE  COMPLEX HERE.  >> YEAH RIDGE I HAVE NO SAY IN  WHAT HAPPENS IN NOVEMBER. THAT  WILL BE UP TO YOU GUYS WHEN  YOU DO HER NEXT PERFORMANCE  EVALUATION. AND WHENEVER  THAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN. SO I  JUST I'M TRYING TO GET HER  THROUGH UNTIL HER NEXT  PERFORMANCE EVALUATION. A LOT  CAN CHANGE IN THE WORLD  BETWEEN NOW AND NOVEMBER. BUT  I WANTED TO GIVE HER IT'S  BASICALLY A COST OF LIVING  INCREASES IN THE 3%. AND AND  THEN ADDRESS IT AT HER NEXT  EVALUATION HOWEVER WE YOU WE  MEANING WE THE COMMISSION SEES  FIT IN NOVEMBER BASED ON THAT  EVALUATION. IT'S THE DEMAND  THEM. YES, I I BELIEVE WAS  TAKEN. IT'S ACTUALLY OCTOBER  WHEN THE EVALUATION.  >> WORKERS MIGHT BE EFFECTIVE  WITH REWARD SO YOU WILL ALL BE  HERE WE DO MINE IN THE CITY OF  TREES THAT THEY WHEN TO GET  HER ON THAT CYCLE. WHAT WAS  PROPOSED SITE IT IS ABSOLUTELY  CORRECT TO GIVE HER HALF OF  WHAT AND THEN GIVE HER  EVALUATION THE SAME TIME REST  OF US IT WITH IT.  >> ACTUALLY HOME WHAT WE'RE  LOOKING AT A FULL OF YEARS I'M  REALLY CONFUSED. WHAT THE  ISSUE IS WHAT WILL FIGURE OUT  AND OCTOBER NOVEMBER. WE YOU  SIX-MONTH ADJUSTMENT AND THEN  A 12 MONTH ADJUSTMENT BUT FOR  TODAY, WE'RE LOOKING AT A  YEAR'S WORTH OF PERFORMANCE  PERIOD. UNLESS I'M MISSING  SOMETHING AND I JUST STARTED  THE CONVERSATION AND I PICKED  3% HOWEVER THAT WHATEVER THAT  APPLIES TO I WAS OFFERED I WAS  MY MOTION WAS FOR 3%.  >> WHATEVER HAPPENS AT THE  NEXT REVIEW HAPPENS AT THE  NEXT REVIEW, IT. SO THERE'S A  MOTION AND A SECOND. I HAD A  QUESTION.  >> WHAT WAS THE SORRY I BUT I  THOUGHT. WANT TO CLARIFY THAT  WE'VE GOT IT. OK SO WE DO HAVE  A MOTION. IT COMMISSIONER  MCDOWELL FOR 3%. INCREASE.  >> STATION AND THAT WAS  SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER, RICH  SO WE'RE GOING TO VOTE ON  THAT.  >> VICE MAYOR. YOU KNOW. MAYOR  NOW. COMMISSIONER LANGDON  DOMINO COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL,  YES. COMMISSIONER EMRICH.  >> YEAH I BECAUSE I KNOW  EVERYBODY IS CONFUSED, BUT I'D  LIKE TO RUST MIGHT KNOW WHY.  BECAUSE I THINK WE NEED TO GET  THIS CUT IN STONE BECAUSE IF  YOU GIVE OR RAISE NOW THAT YOU  GIVE OR RAISE NOVEMBER THEM  THE FOLLOWING YEAR YOU GIVE OR  RAISE SHE'S GOT AN EXTRA RAISE  IT THE OTHER CHARTER OFFICERS  DON'T YET.  >> SEE WHAT I'M SAYING EVEN  UNLESS YOU DO IT. YOU DO HAVE  NOW HAVE NOVEMBER. DANA FULL  RAISE THE FOLLOWING NOVEMBER  THEN SHE'D BE ON TRACK. BUT IT  HAS TO BE STIPULATED THAT SHE  WOULD GET HAVE TO RAISE NOW  AFTER NOVEMBER. THE MAKER  HOLE. FOR LAST YEAR'S  EVALUATION. THEN SHE WOULD GO  FORWARD FOR A REGULAR  >> THANK YOU FOR THAT THERE.  SO WHEN I ORIGINALLY BROUGHT  THIS TO COMMISSION. YEAH I  HAVE REQUESTED TO JUST WAIVE  THE VALUATION. SO THAT I COULD  JUST CATCH UP AND START OVER  AND HOW YOU KNOW JUST THAT  TIME ONE YEAR THAT I WOULD  HAVE THIS TIME OF TIME I GET  AN ANNUAL EVALUATION. SO IF I  CAN HAVE THAT ANNUAL  EVALUATION FOR THE WHOLE YEAR  NOW I COULD WAVE A I CANNOT  BELIEVE THAT VALUATION BECAUSE  IT WAS COMMISSIONS DIRECTION I  BELIEVE FOR ME TO HAVE ANOTHER  EVALUATION AND NOVEMBER. BUT I  DO NOT NEED A SALARY INCREASE  IN NOVEMBER FOR THE 6 MONTHS.  SAY THAT EITHER WAY CUT IT  YOU'RE STILL BREAKING ALL THE  PIECES PUTTING IT TOGETHER ONE  WHOLE A VALUATION ANYWAY. I  I'M NOT ELIMINATING THE 6  MONTHS. COMMISSIONER LANGDON  CITY CLERK.  >> AND WE'LL WORRY ABOUT THE  RATS AND IN THE FUTURE HOW WE  WANT TO DO WITH WHAT WE HAVE  12 MONTHS OF PERFORMANCE ON  THE TABLE. COMMISSIONER MUCH  TO DO HAVE SOMETHING. AT YEAH  THAT'S.  >> THAT'S A LOT MORE FEASIBLE  BECAUSE IF WE GIVE HER THE  RAYS NOW AND THEN COME  NOVEMBER'S ALL SHE HAS IS A  WRITTEN EVALUATION WITH NO  COMPENSATION. THEN SHE CAN GO  FORWARD TO FOLLOWING YEAR, BUT  YOU STILL LOSE IN 6 MONTHS.  BUT THAT'S ON HER SHE CAN  VOLUNTEER DO THAT.  >> BUT WE CAN TAKE THAT UNDER  ADVISEMENT.  >> COMMISSIONER AND THE RICH  WHEN WE EVALUATE HER YEAR FROM  NOVEMBER. WE CAN BASE IT ON 18  MONTHS AND IF SHE CONTINUES TO  PERFORM AT THE LEVEL WE ALL  BELIEVE SHE WELL MAYBE SHE  GETS A LITTLE BIT MORE BECAUSE  WE'RE COVERING A LONGER PERIOD  OF TIME, BUT WE CAN FIGURE  THAT OUT NOVEMBER.  >> AND I JUST WANTED TO CITY  CLERK BEFORE I FORGET TOO THAT  YES I REALLY BEEN VERY PLEASED  WITH  >> YOUR RESPONSE AND TO MY  QUESTIONS I NEVER FEEL THAT  I'M  >> WE TAKE QUESTION  >> VERY STRAIGHTFORWARD AND  AND AND VERY BUSINESSLIKE AND  I REALLY APPRECIATE TIME I  COME TO YOU AND TELL YOUR  ENTIRE TEAM. WELCOMES ME WITH  A SMILE. ALL THAT HIGH. I JUST  REALLY LOVE THAT THANK YOU SO  MUCH. COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL,  DID COME YOU KNOW FIGURE THAT  I MADE A ADAM AIR ON BECAUSE I  DID AND I DON'T THINK I STATED  AT THAT MOTION 4.41 WONDER FOR  ONE TO 4.  >> I MOVE TO APPROVE A 5%  SALARY INCREASE BASED UPON THE  ANNUAL PERFORMANCE EVALUATION  FOR CITY CLERK EFFECTIVE MARCH  24TH 2024.  >> ALL RIGHT, WE HAVE A MOTION  ON THE TABLE MADE BY  COMMISSIONER LANGDON FOR A 5%.  A SALARY INCREASE BASED ON THE  ANNUAL EVALUATION. EFFECTIVE  MARCH 24TH, 2024 AND THAT WAS  SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER  MCDOWELL. THERE'S NOTHING ELSE  BOYS. YES. MAYOR WHITE I'M A  YES COMMISSIONER YES, TELL,  YES. YES.  >> ALL RIGHT. MAYOR. THE ONLY  REASON THEY'RE SMILING AT USED  BECAUSE YOU SMELL LIKE BAKED  GOODS EVERY TIME YOU GO ONE  THAT ON OKAY.  >> SO I THOUGHT IT WAS MY MY  CHARMING PERSONALITY, BUT  OKAY, TAKE THAT. ALL RIGHT SO  THAT PASSES 5 TO 0. PARTY ALL  VICE-MAYOR SO IT DOES HAVE TO  COMMENT I THINK THAT'S A  FIRST. YOU DIDN'T GET ONE  COMMENT. THEY WANT TOOK UP THE  AT THE COVERAGE FOR SAKE OF  MOVEMENT IN OFF THERE KNOWS  EXACTLY YOU KNOW.  >> THINK FOR HER DEPARTMENT  >> MOVING ON TO ITEM C 24 DASH  0, 5, 3, 8, OKAY CITY CLERK,  THIS IS YOUR ITEM.  >> HE HAS PREVIOUSLY THE  COMMISSION ON 1/1/2024  PROVIDED DIRECTION CHARTER  OFFICERS TO WORK TOGETHER  CREATE A POTENTIAL POSITION OF  GREAT RESEARCH ARCHIVIST TO  INCLUDE A JOB DESCRIPTION FOR  BUDGETARY CONSIDERATIONS FOR  FISCAL YEAR 24 AND DETERMINE  WHICH TOOK PART IN THIS  POSITION BETTER SUITED IN. I  HAD MET WITH THE CITY MANAGER  AS WELL AS WITH HR AND WE  REVIEW SOME JOB DESCRIPTIONS  THAT WE HAVE FROM OTHER  MUNICIPALITIES THAT.  >> IT RESEMBLED WHAT WE  THOUGHT THAT COMMISSION WAS  LOOKING FOR AND IT WAS MY  UNDERSTANDING THAT COMMISSION  WAS LOOKING HELP CONSOLIDATE  THE LIST THAT MS. MORGAN HAS  BEEN PRESENT AT PROVIDING  OVERTIME WITH A LOT OF  HISTORIC DATA TO KEEP THAT  LIST ONGOING AFTER RESEARCHING  THE JOB DESCRIPTIONS WE AGREE  THAT WE DON'T FEEL THAT IT IS.  THE TIME FOR US TO HAVE THIS  POSITION IN THE CITY WE DON'T  HAVE THAT TYPE OF HISTORY THAT  THESE OTHER CITIES HAVE THAT  DO HAVE THESE POSITIONS AND WE  RECOMMEND THAT JUST BE  PROVIDED TO THE HISTORIC PORT  FOR I'M GOING CONTINUE ITS  ONGOING. TASK FOR THEM TO. TO  DO THIS  >> COMMISSIONER QUESTIONS WE  HAVE COMMISSIONER LANGDON.  THANK YOU MADAM MAYOR.  >> I'VE SORT OF CONCLUDED THE  SAME THING I I DON'T THINK  THIS IS THE TIME TO ADD A  POSITION AND I'M BASING THAT  ON CONVERSATIONS I'VE HAD WITH  MS. AND A COUPLE OF OTHER  FOLKS. I THINK WHAT'S  IMPORTANT FOR US TO DO NOW. IS  TO RECORD THE ORAL HISTORY OF  SOME OF OUR LONGTIME  RESIDENTS. I WOULD HOPE THAT  SOMEONE COULD DO THAT ON A  VOLUNTEER BASIS JUST LET THEM  TOP I'M IRISH I HAVE 10 EDGE  AND I'M RECORDING THINGS AND  MEET OUR ALL TRADITION IS A  BIG THING AND IRISH CULTURE.  HIS MORGAN AND I HAD A  CONVERSATION AND SHE WAS  BEMOANING THE FACT THAT YOU  KNOW WE HAVE LOST SOME  LONGTIME RESIDENTS AND THE  PAST YEAR. IT WOULD HAVE BEEN  WONDERFUL CAPTURE THEIR  RECOLLECTIONS OF DIFFERENT  KINDS OF THINGS SO I WOULD  LIKE US TO PURSUE MAYBE IT'S  WITH THE HISTORICAL ADVISORY  BOARD ARE WITH MORGAN EVER AND  FIGURE OUT HOW WE MIGHT TAP  SURE RECOLLECTIONS IT AND  PEOPLE THAT SHE AND OTHERS  MIGHT RECOMMEND. AND AND HAVE  THAT PRESERVED FOR A TIME WHEN  WE MIGHT MOVE AND THIS KIND OF  A POSITION AT LEAST WE WOULD  HAVE THE HISTORY DOCUMENT.  THAT'S OKAY. YOU SENSE YOU  SENSE LIKE THAT. COMMISSIONER  MCDOWELL.  >> AND REAL QUICK MY $0.2 IS I  AGREE WE BASED ON THIS  INFORMATION AND THANK YOU TO  STAFF FOR FOR DOING WHAT WE  DIRECTED. IN COMING BACK WITH  YOUR RECOMMENDATIONS AND I DO  CONCUR. ONE OF THE THINGS IS  TO IS TO ASK THE ADVISORY  BOARD TO WORK WITH LONGTIME  RESIDENT AND CAPTURE THAT  INFORMATION. UNFORTUNATELY A  LOT OF A LONGTIME RESIDENTS  CAN'T COME TO CITY HALL. TO  GIVE THEIR ORAL. OR ALL  HISTORY. A LOT OF TIMES  SOMEBODY WILL HAVE TO GO TO  THEM. AND I JUST WANT TO MAKE  SURE THAT.  >> IS IT'S NOT A VIOLATION OF  SUNSHINE IF MAYBE ONE OR 2 OF  THE BOARD MEMBERS GO. TO MEET  WITH THAT RESIDENT. BECAUSE IF  YOU HAVE ONLY ONE PERSON GOING  AND MAYBE NOT CONVENE STORY.  ACCURATELY YOU KNOW SOMETIMES  2 HEADS ARE BETTER THAN WANT  TO HEAR THINGS. I ALSO JUST  WANT TO MAKE SURE IF ONE  PERSON IS GOING THAT THEY HAVE  AUTHORIZATION FROM THE BOARD  THAT THAT BOARD MEMBER CAN GO  AND GET IT FROM THAT CITIZEN.  I'M JUST MAKING SURE THAT  THERE'S NO VIOLATIONS IN ANY  WAY SHAPE OR FORM TO CAUSE  THEM GRIEF IN THE FUTURE  THAT'S THEY WERE ALSO ONLY ONE  BOARD MEMBER CAN GO AT A TIME.  >> DUE TO SUNSHINE AND THEY  WERE DOING THIS PREVIOUSLY AND  THEY WE'RE ASSIGNING. BOARD  MEMBERS TO INTERVIEW SPECIFIC  PEOPLE. IT JUST DIDN'T  CONTINUE TO PROGRESS.  >> AND TESTED. THANK YOU FOR  THAT PROCESS THAT THEY ALREADY  WERE PROBLEM APPRECIATE THAT.  OKAY VICE MAYOR.  >> I DON'T AGREE AT ALL WITH  MY FELLOW COMMISSIONERS HERE I  I REALLY BELIEVE THAT WE'RE  LOSING IN A POOR HISTORY AND  AND WHILE I DON'T THINK WE  NEED TO HIRE AN INDIVIDUAL I  WOULD LIKE TO SEE STAFF AND  I'M NOT QUITE SURE WHAT  DEPARTMENT WOULD BE I BELIEVE  CITY MANAGER AND HIS TEAM TO  ASSIGN SOMEONE SOME ADDITIONAL  RESPONSIBILITY. I DON'T  BELIEVE THIS IS SIGNIFICANT  LIFT. I BELIEVE THAT  SELECTIVELY OVER A PERIOD OF  MONTHS. YOU KNOW THERE CAN BE  PEOPLE SORT OUT WHO HAVE WE'LL  HAVE SOMETHING TO OFFER IN THE  WAY OF OF HISTORIC  PERSPECTIVE. I DON'T THINK  THAT I THINK IF IF WE GO THIS  ROUTE WE'RE JUST GOING LOSE  PEOPLE WERE GOING TO PASS ON  AND THERE WILL BE MANY MANY  STORIES COLORFUL STORIES WERE  CITY AND HISTORY THAT NEEDS TO  BE PRESERVED THAT ONE P I SEE  NO REASON WHY THEY'RE THERE  ISN'T TIME AND SOMEBODY SOME  MEMBER OF STAFFS, SCHEDULED TO  BE ABLE TO DO THIS FOR A  COUPLE OF PEOPLE, WORST  SENSITIZED TO IT LIKE IT MIGHT  WANT TO ADD IT TO  RESPONSIBILITY ADJUST. I JUST  THINK WE'RE JUST LIKE. WORRY  ISSUE AND I THINK IT'S AN  ISSUE THAT IT'S IMPORTANT TO  OUR CITY. I MEAN WE DON'T HAVE  CHILDREN YOU SEE HIM WE DON'T  HISTORICAL MEAN SQUAT WERE 65  PUT OUT THAT'S A WONDERFUL  BOOK BUT LIKE WE'RE DOING  NOTHING IN THE WAY OF TRYING  PRESERVE OUR CITY'S HISTORY  AND A WONDERFUL THAT IS ON THE  EVE OF. AND EXPLOSIVE NEW YEAR  AND THERE'S JUST THINGS THAT  ARE GOING DISAPPEAR THROUGH  THE CRACKS SO I THINK THERE'S  GOT TO BE A WAY TO A SITE  WOULD THIS. AND IT'S CERTAINLY  I DON'T THINK SIGNIFICANT  AMOUNT OF TIME AND EFFORT  INVOLVED. THAT'S TAKE.  >> ALL RIGHT NOW JUST A THEY  GET BACK UP FOR OFF OF A VICE  MAYOR THAT I'M I'M A BIG  PROPONENT PRESERVING HISTORY  AND I DO APPRECIATE THE ORAL  HISTORY SUGGESTION. I'M NOT.  INCLINED TO SAY I'D LIKE TO  THIS TASK ASSIGNED TO A STAFF  MEMBER BUT I WOULD LIKE TO SEE  THE CITY TAKE SOME STEPS AT  SOME POINT TILLIS DESIGNATE A  ROOM AND AREA WHERE PEOPLE  HAVE ITEMS.  >> THAT ARE.  >> OLD FROM THE CITY THAT THEY  COULD DONATE THEM TO YOU KNOW  SIGNIFICANT THANKS FOR EXAMPLE  AND WE HAVE THE 40TH  ANNIVERSARY. A CELEBRATION IN  I HAD BLOWN UP A LOT PICTURES  FROM NORTH PORT POSTERS AND  NOBODY KNOWS WHAT HAPPENED TO  THEM. ALSO FOR THAT  ANNIVERSARY WE HAD FLAGS ME  DOES ANYBODY REMEMBER THAT  SOMEBODY ACTUALLY MAYBE I HAVE  MY OFFICE AND I'M THINKING.  >> MY SON DOESN'T WANT THE  GOING GO THROUGH ALL MY  FRIENDS I WAS TALKING TO  MORNING LIKE YOU KNOW I HAVE  NOWHERE TO PUT THE STUFF AND  IT'S NOT GOING TO STAY THERE  SO IT WOULD BE GREAT TO HAVE A  PLACE TO BRING THINGS TO AND  THEN HAVE AND HISTORICAL.  >> VOLUNTEERS OTHER CITIES  HAVE.  >> REALLY HAVE RESIDENTS THAT  ARE JUST SO PASSIONATE ABOUT  PRESERVING HISTORY SUCH AS THE  CITY OF VENICE. THEY'RE JUST  REALLY PASSIONATE ABOUT. THAT  BUT THEY HAVE A PLACE FOR THEM  TOO TO STORE THESE THINGS AND  DISPLAY THEM AND THEY TAKE  THEM OUT ON OCCASION AND THEY  GO IN THEIR CITY HALL AND THEN  THEY THEY DON'T TO GO THROUGH  THEM, I'D LOVE TO SEE US DO  SOMETHING LIKE THAT AND  FUTURE.  >> WE DO HAVE TO START FROM  FIRST FOR THINGS LIKE THAT.  THESE ARE THINGS THAT SOME  RESIDENTS HAVE BROUGHT STEFAN  BUT IT'S ALSO STUFF THAT WE  HAVE. JUST FOUND A RUNOFF US  THAT WE PUT IN THERE MENTIONED  VENICE, THEY HAVE THEIR  HISTORIC RESOURCE MANAGER THEY  HAVE A CURATOR THEY HAVE A LOT  OF. PEOPLE WITH A LOT OF  KNOWLEDGE ON HISTORIC ITEMS  HERE I HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE  ELEMENT THAT SO WHEN WE  RECEIVE SOMETHING I'M SUPPOSED  TO BE ONE OF TERMS OF HISTORIC  SO EVERYTHING'S A STORY,  YOU'RE RIGHT. SO WE DO HAVE TO  REMEMBER HERE WE HAVE A POLICY  ON COLLECTING THINGS FOR WHAT  KIND OF THINGS YOU PUT IN  THERE IS THAT WHAT IT IS I  THINK THERE'S THE SHOVELS IN  AIR FROM RIBBON THERE ARE  POSTERS AND THERE THERE MAY BE  FLAGS IN THE OTHER DAY JOHN  MORGAN WAS LOOKING FOR A  BINDER THAT SOMEBODY HAD  PROVIDED ON HER AND HER  HUSBAND AND WE FOUND THAT IN  THERE OK SO WE DO HAVE THAT  OKAY. THAT'S GOOD TO NOW. IT'S  COMMISSIONER LANGDON I JUST  HAD A QUICK QUESTION FOR VICE  MAYOR. IS RECORDING THE ORAL  HISTORIES, US IS THAT  SUFFICIENT FOR YOU.  >> IN TERMS FEELING  COMFORTABLE THAT WE'RE  DOCUMENTING OUR HISTORY  BECAUSE I HEARD A LOT OF  CONCERN YOUR I THINK THAT I  MEAN I DON'T  >> WHAT ELSE I MEAN THERE MAY  WELL BE SINGS US MAYOR THAT  COULD BE A BUT THAT'S WE'RE  ALREADY DOING BUT YEAH I WOULD  LOVE TO SEE SOMEBODY TRY TO  CATCH BECAUSE I THINK THEIR  STORIES TO BE TOLD THAT.  CHILDREN MY CHILDREN, BUT I DO  HAVE CHILDREN BUT OTHER  PEOPLE'S CHILDREN AND  GRANDCHILDREN WOULD LOVE TO  KNOW ABOUT OUR CITY AND I  THINK THAT'S IMPORTANT TO  CAPTURE AND I THINK WE'RE YOU  KNOW PEOPLE ARE GETTING OLD  THAT AS JOHN SAID PASSION  WE'RE LOSING SOME OF THAT AND  I JUST THINK THERE'S GOT TO BE  A WAY TO CAPTURE IT WHETHER WE  HIRE OR SOME PART TIME TO DO  IT WHETHER SOMEBODY VOLUNTEERS  WITH OUR STAFF AND THAT IS  THAT THERE'S JUST GOT TO BE  SOME WAY TO DO THAT'S ALL I'M  IS TO JUST SORT END THIS ISSUE  AND THE LIKE WILL MOVE ON TO  OTHER BIGGER THINGS FOR UPS  AND NEVER GET THAT'S ALL I WAS  THINKING MORE IN TERMS OF A  PHYSICAL. RAFFLE WHAT I WHAT I  MOVED HERE DON'T DEVELOPMENT  STILL CONTROL THE UTILITIES  AND. REMEMBERS POPE NOBODY  MISSION TELL YOU WHAT.  >> THEY HAD THAT BIG PUT  THOUGH THING 41 REMEMBER OUT A  PICTURE OF THAT AND TELL  PEOPLE THAT WAS WHERE YOU WENT  TO PAY WHAT A BELL AND THEY'RE  LIKE WHAT TALKING ABOUT THEY  HAVE TO SAY A PICTURE'S ORAL  HISTORIES ARE GREAT, BUT WHEN  YOU SHOW THEM THAT ARTIFACTS,  YES, OR AT LEAST THE PICTURE  OF THAT THAT SHOULD BE  SOMEWHERE SO PEOPLE CAN  UNDERSTAND WE WHERE COME FROM.  >> SO WHERE WE ARE TODAY. SO  THAT'S WHY I'M JUST SAYING  LOVE TO SING, YOU SAID THERE  IS A ROOM BUT IT. SO TOOK  POINT WHAT'S ORGANIZED AND OF  COURSE HAVE A CRITERIA JUST  WANT TO TAKE ANYTHING JUST  HAVE TO BE A STORAGE SOLEDAD  BUT SOMETHING THAT'S WHAT  SIGNIFICANT SO. SHELLING HOMS  OUR CITY THANK YOU MAYOR JUST  GOING BACK TO SOME OF THE  COMMENTS PREVIOUSLY ABOUT  HISTORICAL AND CULTURAL  ADVISORY BOARD MEMBERS  ACTUALLY GOING OUT. AND  RECORDING ORAL HISTORIES IN  REVIEWING THE POWERS AND  DUTIES OF THE CODE THAT IS NOT  IS NOT WITHIN THE SCOPE THAT  WORDS DO SO. IF YOU ALL ARE  INTERESTED IN HAVING YOUR THEM  OR IF THE BOARD IS INTERESTED  IN DOING THAT THEY'VE DONE  BEFORE. THEY ARE OUTSIDE  TECHNICAL ANYBODY WANTS DO IT  GOING FORWARD THERE ARE 2 WAYS  THAT YOU CAN ADDRESS THAT.  BOTH WOULD HAVE TO BE ON A  DIFFERENT AGENDA ITEM BECAUSE  NOTHING ABOUT THIS AGENDA ITEM  FOR THE PUBLIC ON THOSE THAT  WE'RE TALKING ABOUT IS WHAT  THE SPORTS DUTIES, BUT ONE GET  AMEND THE CODE TO CODIFY THAT  DUTY OR 2. THERE'S SORT OF A  CATCH-ALL VERY END OF THE LIST  OF THE DUTIES TO SAY THAT THE  BOARD CAN PERFORM OTHER  DUTIES. RELATED TO PROTECTING  CONSERVING ENHANCING RAISING  PUBLIC AWARENESS OF THE CITY'S  HISTORIC AND CULTURAL  RESOURCES AS THE CITY  COMMISSION FROM TIME TO TIME  ACT. SO THEY COULD DO IT YOU  KNOW EMOTION FROM YOU. ONE  CONSIDERATION IF THIS IS KIND  OF THAT A ONE-TIME OR  SHORT-TERM PROJECT IF YOU  CONSIDER THE MOTION IF THIS IS  SOMETHING THAT YOU WANT THIS  BOARD TO GET IN A CONSISTENT  BASIS GOING FORWARD OF THE  LONG TERM. YOU MAY WANT TO  CONSIDER AMENDING THE POWERS  AND DUTIES OF THE CODE SO THAT  THAT DIRECTION ISN'T LAST FEW  YEARS DOWN THE ROAD.  COMMISSIONER LANGDON I HAVE A  QUICK QUESTION FOR CITY CLERK.  >> SORT OF THAT.  >> SOMEONE IN YOUR OFFICE  MIGHT WORK WITH THE HISTORICAL  ADVISORY BOARD AND SEE WHAT  THEY ALL MIGHT WANT TO DO. AND  COME BACK I'M TRYING I'M  TRYING TO FIGURE OUT A MOTION  TO SO TO KEEP THIS ALIVE, BUT  I DON'T WANT TO DROP. BUT I  THINK IT'S YOUR OFFICE TO WORK  WITH THE ADVISORY WHOEVER IS  THE STAFF LIAISON AND HAVE  THEM COME BACK WITH A  RECOMMENDATION OF HOW THEY  WOULD LIKE TO PROCEED. AND  THEN WE COULD VOTE ON THAT  BASED ON THAT SORT OF CATCH  ALL REQUIREMENT AT THE END OF  THE ADVISORY BOARDS. DUTIES,  WEST. SO IS THAT CONCEIVABLE  WITH FOR MINUTE AND THAT ITEM  FOR LONG JUST REMEMBER WE  DON'T HAVE THE BOARD SO WILL  BE ONCE WE BRING THAT WORD  BACK AND GET SOME BOARD  MEMBERS ON THERE.  >> I WOULD JUST AND AGAIN YOU  KNOW I. I I LIKE TO GET THINGS  THEM.  >> YOU KNOW ONE OF THEM WHILE  WE WAIT FOR THE MORE REFORM  ADDING THAT COURT IF ONE OF  THEM WOULD LIKE TO VOLUNTEER.  >> AND WE CAN PROVIDE A LITTLE  BIT OF STAFF SUPPORT OR  COMMISSION'S SUPPORT.  >> FOR THAT I WOULD BE HAPPY  TO VOLUNTEER, I THINK I HEARD.  COMMISSIONER MC DOWELL SAYING  THAT SHOULD SORT OF LIKE TO BE  IN A SO. THAT WOULD BE TOO  BURDENSOME ON YOUR TEAM THEN  I'D BE INCLINED TO MAKE A  MOTION. OKAY AND ALSO JUST YOU  KNOW THAT THAT ORDINANCE WILL  BE COMING BACK ON THE 23RD OF  APRIL ARE SECOND RATE YEAH.  FOR THE BOARD CUTS. THEY DID  AGAIN APRIL 23RD, THANK YOU.  DID YOU WANT TO DO SOMETHING  NOW. VICE MAYOR HAS.  >> SLIGHTLY OUT OF TALKS A LOT  BUT.  >> I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S  BROUGHT UP BEFORE I SEEM TO  RECALL THAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN  SOMEBODY TOUCHED ON IT. IT'S  NOT ANYTHING THAT THAT WE  COULD FALL SINCE WE DON'T HAVE  CONTROL OVER IT, BUT SEEMS TO  MAKE. WE HAVE A HIGH SCHOOL  YEAR IN PORT. WE HAVE STUDENTS  WHO. LEARN. IN MANY CASES S WE  SEEM GET BACK TO THEIR  COMMUNITY AND GET INVOLVED IN  THEIR COMMUNITY AND I WAS  WONDERING MIGHT BE ANOTHER  APPROACH IS TO LOOK TO SOME  COLLABORATION WITH OUR SCHOOL  THROUGH THE SCHOOL BOARD TO  SEE IF THAT MIGHT NOT BE A  RESOURCE WHERE SOMEHOW STILL  HIGH SCHOOL CAN GET INVOLVED  IN THE PROCESS OF. THESE  INTERVIEWS THESE THE BIG  GATHERING OF OF COLOR FOR  HISTORIC INFORMATION ABOUT OUR  CITY THAT COULD THEN BE  PERCENT OF THROUGH ART. THE  PFIZER REPORTED AND AND HELP  SET ASIDE FOR POSTERITY MEAN  IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THERE  WOULD BE A LOT PUBLIC INTEREST  IN DOING SOMETHING LIKE THIS  AND I'M NOT QUITE SURE THE  MECHANICS FOR THE PROCESS BY  WHICH WE CAN GO ABOUT DOING  IT. BUT YOU KNOW IT'S A  THOUGHT THAT MAYBE WOULD HELP  SKIN THIS CAT. HAVE.  >> I MEAN TAKE A SHOT SURE  THAT WE NEED IT IS SO QUIET.  I'M SORRY GO AHEAD  COMMISSIONER.  >> I SEE HOW YOU ARE YOU  >> HERE'S SOMEWHAT OF A  SOLUTION BECAUSE I GO ON  FACEBOOK AND THERE'S OUR  NEIGHBORING COMMUNITY  ENGLEWOOD AND THEY HAVE A  LITTLE POST OUT THERE THAT  SAYS THE U REMEMBER WHEN  ENGLEWOOD QUESTION MARK. IT'S  OPEN TO THE PUBLIC AND THEY  PUT IN WHATEVER MEMORIES THEY  HAVE LIKE YOU SAID. ABOUT THE  BEAUTY YOU BUILD A CITIZEN  WOULD COME OUT AND SAY HEY  LOOK AT THIS BUILDING YOU  REMEMBER THIS NOT ONLY IS  THERE DISCUSSION GOING ON  BETWEEN CITIZENS, YOU'RE ALSO  ARCHIVE. IT BE THE SAME  REMEMBER WE ONLY HAVE ONE BOY  CAN LIGHTEN THERE'S A PHOTO.  IT COULD BE A A VERY BIG  SOURCE OF THE INFORMATION THAT  COST 0 AND YOU HAVE  INTERACTIVE BETWEEN THE  CITIZENS BECAUSE OF REMEMBER  THAT GDU BUILDING 40 SOME  YEARS AGO, OR WHATEVER THE  CASE MIGHT BE. IT'S IT'S AN  AVENUE TO LOOK AT WHERE FIRST  OF ALL WE'RE NOT HIRING STAFF,  WE'RE PUTTING IT OUT THERE TO  GET. YOU KNOW, IM PUT BACK  FROM CITIZENS. YOU KNOW IT'S  ELECTION THAT CITIZENS CAN  COME TO CITY HALL AND THEY  HAVE A HARD TIME THIS. BUT IF  THEY HAVE A SEAT ON FACEBOOK  AND THEY HAVE A PIECE OF  HISTORY. YOU KNOW LIKE THE  BACK SO THAT YOU KNOW NO  SPREAD STUFF ALL OF THAT STUFF  CAN BE PUT OUT THERE AND HEY  GUESS WHAT IT'S BEING SAFE. I  JUST WANTED TO THROW THAT OUT  THERE BEFORE WE START ASKING  PEOPLE  >> THAT IDEA THAT IDEA AND I  KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT  WHAT WHAT THEY DO YEAH THANK  YOUS. OKAY. YOU WANT TRY PUSH  HIM  >> I'LL TAKE THE EDGE YEAH,  I'LL TAKE A SHOT I'D LIKE TO  MAKE A MOTION TO DIRECT CITY  CLERK. TO WORK PAST MEMBERS OF  THE HISTORICAL BOARD.  >> AND ANY STAFF LIAISON.  >> 2.  >> COME BACK. ON APRIL 23RD.  WITH THE RECOMMENDATION OF HOW  TO PROCEED. CAPTURING AND  DOCUMENT THING.  >> THE CITIES.  >> CULTURE AND HISTORY. A  SECOND FOR DISCUSSION, OKAY,  WE HAVE A MOTION ON THE FLOOR  BY COMMISSIONER LANGDON TO  DIRECT CITY CLERK TO. GET IN  TOUCH WITH CAST MEMBERS OF THE  HISTORICAL BOARDS THAT WHICH  IS PAST MEMBERS IN ANY STAFF  LIAISON WITH RECOMMENDATIONS  ON HOW WE CAN PRESERVE. THE  DISTRICT HISTORIC COMPONENT  OF NORTH PORT IS THAT REALLY  WHAT YOU SAID, YEAH AND COME  BACK ON THAT WHEN COME BACK ON  APRIL 23RD RIGHT JUST  RECOMMENDATIONS. AND THAT WAS  SECONDED BY COMMISSIONER  MCDOWELL. IF I MAY SPEAK TO  THAT.  >> PROBLEM I'M HAVING WITH THE  MOTION AND I WANTED TO JUST  BRING IT UP IS. CAST MEMBERS  WERE TRYING TO GET THAT BOARD  REINSTATED AND AS SOON AS WE  FINISH UP OUR HEARINGS TO GET  THAT REINSTATED. AND CHANGED.  MEMBERS I'M SURE GOING TO  START FILING THEIR  APPLICATIONS TO BE ON THE  BOARD. I REALLY WOULD LIKE TO  WAIT AND SEE WHAT THEIR  RECOMMENDATIONS ARE AND HOW WE  WOULD YOU KNOW THAT WOULD BE  ONE OF THEIR FIRST TASK SAYS  HOW DO YOU RECOMMEND WE WE  PROCEED WITH GETTING CAPTURING  OF NORTH PORT HISTORY. I MEAN  COMMISSIONER MUCH CAME UP WITH  A FANTASTIC IDEA. AND I'M SURE  THAT THEY'VE ALREADY INVENTED  THE WHEEL. WHEN THEY'VE BEEN  CAPTURING THE ORAL HISTORIES.  BUT I JUST AS THE MOTION IS  STATED, I THINK MAYBE WE MIGHT  BE PREMATURE AND GIVING ANY  DIRECTION TO MOVE FORWARD  UNTIL AFTER THAT BOARD IS  REINSTATED.  >> COMMISSIONER LANGDON SPEAK  TO MOTION. I DO APPRECIATE  COMMISSION OF MCDOWELL'S  COMMENTS AND. IF I THOUGHT  THAT THERE WOULD BE A  COMMUNITY UP SWELL OF PEOPLE  INTERESTED IN JOINING THIS  BOARD. I WOULD TEND TO AGREE.  BUT I RECALL THE REASON WE  DISBANDED THIS BOARD WAS THE  LACK OF INTEREST AND  PARTICIPATION SO MY THOUGHT IS  WHAT WHATEVER HANDFUL OF FOLKS  ARE LEFT WHO HAVE AN INTEREST  IN DOING SOMETHING. YOU KNOW  JUST RATHER NOT THE WAY I LIKE  TO GIVE THEM THE OPPORTUNITY  BECAUSE IT'S JOAN MORGAN SAID  THEY'RE DROPPING LIKE FLIES SO  YOU NO LONGER WE WAIT WE MIGHT  LOSE SOMEONE WHO HAS VERY  VALUABLE RECOLLECTIONS WE CAN  CERTAINLY ALWAYS ADD TO IT IF  NEW PEOPLE COME ON AND THEY  WANT TO GET INVOLVED IN AND  ALL THAT THEY CAN EASILY JUMP  ON THAT BUT I DO FEEL YOU KNOW  HAVING LAST MISTER TOWER AND  MISTER MATHEWS THIS YEAR I DO  FEEL SOME SENSE OF URGENCY TO  START THIS PROCESS SOONER  RATHER THAN LATER.  COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL, YOU  KNOW.  >> WE DON'T NEED THE CITY  CLERK TO RETEST MEMBERS. I'M  SURE PASS MEMBERS ARE ALREADY  KIND OF DOING AND TALKING WITH  THEM CAPTURE. I. TASKING THE  CLERK TO DO SOMETHING. AND  REACHING OUT TO PASS MEMBER  SAYING HEY IF YOU'RE  INTERESTED YOU CAN DO THIS  IT'S KIND OF LIKE WHAT I'M  HEARING. I MEAN IT'S LIKE 2 OR  3 PEOPLE. I DON'T THINK IT'S A  HEAVY THAT'S CITY CLERK WOULD  IT BE TOO BURDENSOME JUST SORT  OF DO THAT OUTRAGE.  >> AND TALKING WITH MS. MORGAN  I DIDN'T GET ANY SENSE AT ALL  THAT ANYONE IS GOING OUT IN  CAPTURING THE ORAL SEE WHAT  HAPPENS. JUST HAD A  QUESTIONNAIRE ABOUT YES, GO  AHEAD.  >> NOW DON'T GO AHEAD AND JUST  WANT TO LET YOU KNOW I HAD  ANOTHER QUESTION GO AHEAD AND  ASK YEARS.  >> PAST MEMBERS YOU YOU HAVE A  LIST OF PEOPLE WHO ARE MEMBERS  IN GENERAL UP ALL THE ADVISORY  BOARDS DON'T YOU HAVE AGAINST  HANDS OF WITH PEOPLE ANY TIME  THAT THEY REMEMBER SO THESE  ARE THE PEOPLE THAT WE'RE  TALKING ABOUT YOU WAS CONTACT  AND WHAT EMAIL OR SOMETHING  LIKE THAT IF YOU ANYTHING TO.

BOW OUT OF  ADVISORY BOARDS BECAUSE THEY  THEY DO GET DISCOURAGED OR  WHATEVER, BUT THEY HAVE GOOD  IDEAS. SO THAT'S WHAT I'M I  WAS THINKING. COMMISSIONER WAS  GOING FOR US THEY HAD IDEAS  OUT. TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THIS  RECOMMENDATION USE VALUABLE.  WE'LL SEE YOU BE ABLE OKAY.  >> YES THEY YES GO AHEAD. YOU  FORGOT BE AGAIN DID YOU.  >> YOU ANSWER THAT. HAHA  LEADING THE FELLOW EYE.  >> I AGREE WITH COMMISSIONER  MCDOWELL BECAUSE WE DON'T  REALLY HAVE AN ACTIVE BOARD TO  SEE THIS THROUGH BITE CALLING  UP AND ASKING FOR  RECOMMENDATIONS FROM PAST  BOARD MEMBERS. UNLESS THEY'RE  GOING TO BE BACK ON THE BOARD  I DON'T. RELY  >> DON'T WRECK SHOULDN'T BEING  GIVEN TO US FROM. ABORT I  WOULD LOOK AT IT TO HAVE THE  CONVERSATIONS WITH PAST BOARD  MEMBERS. I'D THIS IS WHAT'S  GOING TO BE OUR FIRST UP TYPES  POSSIBLY COMING DOWN THE  TRACKS ON. HOW DO WE ARCHIVE  ALL THIS STUFF. NOW WE'VE GOT  SOME AMMUNITION FOR US TO GET  UP THERE AND TALK ABOUT AGAIN.  BUT SOME LIFE BLOOD BACK INTO  THAT BUT THE HAVE DIRECTION  COME FROM PAST MEMBERS. I  DON'T FEEL IS RIGHT I HEY THIS  IS WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO  WE'RE TRYING TO GET PAST  MEMBERS BACK ON THE BOARD  WE'RE TRYING TO RESURRECT THE  BOARD AND WE'RE TRYING TO GIVE  YOU DIRECTION TO GO AHEAD AND  FIND ARCHIVAL STUFF TO HELP  DIRECT I WORKING IT THAT WAY  IS MUCH BETTER THAN SAYING. OH  YEAH, LET'S GET THE PAST  MEMBERS TO GIVE US DIRECTION  AND LESS THAN A MONTH. I  THAT'S THAT'S THE WAY I LOOK  AT IT I'D RATHER HAVE IT  FORMAT.  >> COMMISSIONER LANGDON YOU  WANT JUST ONE FINAL COMMENT IN  RESPONSE TO COMMISSIONER, AM  RICH.  >> BUT I'M REALLY HELPING IS  THAT THEY MIGHT VOLUNTEER TO  DO IT.  >> AND.  >> YOU KNOW THE ADVISORY BOARD  PROCESS CAN PROCEED. IF ONE OF  THOSE FOLKS WOULD LIKE TO  VOLUNTEER, I WOULD CERTAINLY  VOLUNTEER TO SUPPORT THEM.  >> I THINK COMMISSIONER  MCDOWELL WOULD TO I DON'T WANT  TO SPEAK FOR HER, BUT SHE  EXPRESSED INTEREST.  >> SO I'M JUST SORT OF OPENING  IN THAT CHECKING IN SOMETHING  MIKE BUBBLE UP THAT WE CAN  MOVE FORWARD, AND IT MAY OR  MAY NOT SO TO BLEND INTO WHAT  A FUTURE HISTORICAL CULTURAL  ADVISORY GROUP MAY OR MAY NOT  WANT TO DO.  >> AND AGAIN JUST THINKING THE  AT LIKE.

ADDRESSING.  HOW CITIZENS ARE. FEELING AND  HOW THEY ARE BEING PERCEIVED.  AS BEING OPPOSITION OR  WATCHDOGS OR ANY OTHER. ROBERT  HORRY CONNOTATION I ARE  SITTING. CHARTER OFFICER STAFF  ANYBODY. THAT TOOK SOME  SERIOUS COURAGE FOR HER TO  SPEAK UP. AND I WANT TO  ACKNOWLEDGE THAT AND AGREE  WITH HER. BECAUSE SOME OF THE  THINGS THAT I HAVE BEEN  HEARING. SOME OF THE. COMMENTS  THAT I HAVE WITNESSED. CANNOT  BE CONDONED. IT IS. AFFECTING  OUR CITY TO THE POINT WHERE.  OUR OUTSIDERS LOOKING IN ARE  FEELING LIKE THEY ARE BEING  THE GATED. THEY ARE BEING  CHASTISED FOR HAVING  DIFFERENCES OF OPINION ON HOW  THINGS ARE DONE. AND THAT IS  NEVER TO BE ACCEPTABLE. WE ARE  HERE TO LISTEN TO ALL SIDES  REGARDLESS IF WE AGREE WITH  THEM OR NOT. AND I JUST WANTED  TO. COMPLIMENT OUR COMMENTER  EARLIER TODAY FOR HAVING THE  COURAGE TO SPEAK UP ABOUT HOW  IS FEELING THAT SHE IS BEING  TREATED. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU.  >> IT'S A TENDER WASN'T  CUTTING IT AWAKEN CHURCH  CHAMBERS TOO. AND HE  REQUIREMENT  >> THEY'RE ON THE APP WHOLE  LOT TO REPORT. I WOULD ALSO  LIKE TO PIGGYBACK OFF OF  COMMISSIONER MCDOWELL COMMENTS  SENSE.  >> I THINK THAT. ANY CITIZEN  WHO FEELS. RETICENT TO SPEAK  OUT OR FEELS IF THEY ARE BEING  CHASTISED LOOK WORK BLACK GOLD  OR WHATEVER TERM AN ALL THEY  MAY CHOOSE TO USE I THINK IT'S  A HORRIBLE THING. AND I TRULY  IN MY HEART NOT BELIEVE THAT  THIS CITY NOT ANY MEMBER OF  STAFF CHARTER OFFICER.  CERTAINLY ANY COMMISSIONER.  EVER INTENSE THAT TO BE THE  CASE. I THINK THERE ARE  PROBABLY TIMES WHERE COMMENTS  ARE MADE. RESPONSE TO COMMENTS  TAKE PLACE AND I THINK  SOMETIMES PEOPLE CAN BE LEFT  WITH THOSE FEELINGS. I WOULD  WANT ANYONE OUT THERE THINK  IT'S NOT INTENTION OF CITY'S  LEADERSHIP. ON ANY WET. TO TRY  TO STIFLE PUBLIC OPINION. I  THINK THAT IT IS CITY, I'VE  WATCHED OTHER MEETINGS. IT  PLACES. WE DO PUBLIC COMMENTS  IN THE BEGINNING AT THE END IN  THE MIDDLE. WE TRY TO CREATE  AS MUCH COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT  AS WE CAN BOARD. WE DO THAT.  SO MORE WE CREATE ENVIRONMENTS  WHERE DISSENSION AND  DIFFERENCES OF OPINIONS. BUT  HEY AND AND SOMETIMES I THINK  PEOPLE CAN BE LEFT WITH THAT  FEELING AND THAT'S NOT A GOOD  THING SO I DON'T WISH TO  CONDONE IT NOR OR RATIONALIZE  IT. BUT AT THE SAME TIME I  WOULD SAY THAT CITY. WHEN I  HOPE I SPEAK FOR EVERYONE IS  TRULY COMMITTED THE COMMUNITY  ENGAGEMENT. IT WOULD BE A  HORRIBLE THING. FOR IT TO BE  OTHERWISE AND SO YOU KNOW WHEN  PEOPLE FEEL THAT WAY THEY NEED  TO DO JUST WHAT ROBIN DID  TODAY STANDUP HAVE THAT YOU  KNOW WHATS TO SPEAK OUT ABOUT  IT. AND DESPITE THE FACT THAT  PEOPLE CAN COME IN HERE. CAN  SPEAK POORLY ABOUT ANY ONE OF  US. SPEAK POORLY ABOUT THE  DECISIONS WE MAKE. WELL  WHATEVER WE MAY DO WERE  REPRESENT THAT IS THEIR RIGHT.  AND IT IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY  TO SIT HERE TAKE IT WAS SENT  HIM WITH AN OPEN ENOUGH MIND  AND AFTER THE BACKBONE AND THE  THICK ENOUGH SKIN TO PUT UP  WITH IT. AND THAT IS THEIR  RIGHT AND IT IS OUR OBLIGATION  SO WIESE NO ONE OUT THERE  THINK. WE INTENTIONALLY WANT  TO DO THIS IF WE ARE HUMAN. SO  WE REACT IT'S HARD WHEN YOU'RE  GETTING YOU KNOW THAT IT'S  HARD WHEN YOU'RE BEING CALLED  NAMES TOWARD WHEN YOU'RE BEING  ACCUSED OF THINGS THAT YOU  KNOW AREN'T TRUE OR RIGHT OR  THEY'RE JUST SOMEONE'S  DIFFERENCE OF OPINION. BUT  PLEASE THIS CITY I THINK  HEIGHTS ITSELF. ON COMMUNITY  INVOLVEMENT AND I THINK WE ALL  WANT TO BE THAT WAY SO. KUDOS  TO ROB HIM FOR SPEAKING UP.  ONCE IN A WHILE THAT REALITY  CHECK HELPS US ALL SO WE'RE A  LITTLE MORE DESENSITIZED EVEN  WHEN SOMEBODY IN OUR FACE  THAT'S WHAT WE GET PAID THE  BIG BUCKS AN THAT'S ALL I HAVE  TO SAY.  >> THAT'S ALL I HAVE TO SAY I  GUESS THAT THANK YOU VICE  MAYOR, BUT I HAVE TO FOLLOW  THAT YES I WAS THAT IT WAS AT  THE AUTISM AWARENESS EVENT PUT  ON BY OUR.
