There's a lot of things that >> I'm used to one counsel max >> and we put a limit on ourselves like hey it goes beyond two hours we're going to journey And I was just like, >> but I got all the I got all the all the information for it. And I'm like, you're
going to get you'll get you get an executive brief you got from me. You're going to get another one. as soon as they >> don't even Here's one of the issues I had last I was at sign
>> I'm going to have a conversation after this conversation I said >> is this franchise purchase is all the stuff that comes with the franchise is this what's out in front of every Starbucks
>> you got you got car blocks to go ahead build it signs where they need to be because because I know that you guys the way you develop your properties for this, they're all the same. So, I know what to expect. And then I had a car wash,
we want to do this, we do this. We put our sign, no, you're not putting your sign right in front of the Starbucks. Take your car wash. I would recommend putting it in the center so everybody can see. All right. put it at your entrance.
>> I'm not put I'm not mixing signs because I'm trying to protect for me because this is how it all look. This is how they all look. We really want to lose this opportunity to bring in
location. >> Where chicken sandwich fries? That's not right. Don, come up. >> Okay, as soon as Don comes back, we'll >> just trying to make sure that I don't
lose my hotel for tonight so I have a place to sleep. Gor City Port Richie Community Redevelopment Agency board meeting Tuesday, January 13, 2026. Like stand for the pledge. >> I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the

So moved. >> Second. >> I have a motion to second. Any further discussion? Any public comment? See, put the vote on favor signify saying I. >> I. >> I. >> Opposed. Motion carries. Next up, I need a motion to approve the December 9th, 2025 CRA boards.
>> So moved. >> Second. >> Motion. Second. Any further discussion? Any public comment? Seeing none, put the vote. All in favor signify by saying I. >> I. >> I. >> Opposed. Motion carries. Next up, comments from the general public. I have no signups. By show hands, I'd like to
speak. Seeing none, I'll close public comment. Uh, and then next up is comments from the city manager. No comments. >> Okay, no comments. And then moving on to board business. Item number two, branding sign selection. I'll pass that
to Mr. King for introduction there. been reviewing the uh I guess what's been uh pro provided for us for um selection. Um I think I'm not sure if we voted to move forward with that um based
on the actual projects themselves. I don't know if everybody's had opportunity to look at all the different signs. Um as far as from my perspective, I I think it meets the intent of what the council wants. I think they're going to they're going to they're going to be very nice in the
locations that we provide been put them in. Um I I'm just interested on the time and and timeline in which this will be able to be accomplished and then you know I haven't reviewed the actual final cost on these. Um what I do what I have
recommended to the uh CRA board is that while we are doing these signs is you know looking at the opportunity to provide digital signs. one at um here at city hall and then maybe one uh off of
uh 19 where we can actually uh provide updates and information to the community so that they have real time information on council meetings, changes, anything that that pops up and then uh emergency information and then just events and
social events that that may occur. Um, one of the things that kind of crossed my mind is there's a potential to advertise on them too >> to make to make, you know, revenue to pay for or offset the cost of the signs that were actually purchasing. So, that would that would be helpful to some
degree. But that's something I would, you know, let the the council, you know, discuss and and determine, you know, late as as as we move forward with the actual um purchasing and replacement of the uh actual signage uh that brand Port
Richie. So it just on your digital sign discussion, are you thinking about incorporating a digital digital sign into the monument sign that be out front or you talking about it be all digital >> whole new sign that meets the intent of the designs that you have selected? So
we'll work with the company to come up with something that actually replicates or fits in the signage of the city. So I don't have an old sign out there that's built into a digital platform. Whereas what I'll have is a digital platform built into our new signage. So it gives
us a a more professional, more clean, more >> but you have some static portions of the sign like our logo for Richie and then you'd have just basically all the content would be a digital that you can change. So basically on top to the side at an angle it on an area that we can
properly promote the city but then having that that lower bottom for the actual digital sign that allow us to communicate with our uh residents and community. >> So is the intent of this item is to select they look like there's three
styles. >> Yeah the intent so this is phase two of the fa three-phase project a contract that we have with KMA. This is phase two to select a design. We talked to the company. You can like all of them, none of them, or portions of them, and we'll that feedback uh to our meeting
tomorrow. We're already going to include the inclusion of a digital sign. Uh so we'll ask them to incorporate a digital sign concept into whatever concept you like >> or you can tell them to go back to the drawing board. >> Yeah. So, um I'll start. I mean, I I've looked through these. I there's there's
aspects on each that I like. The one I like the least is the the very first one with the ground >> right. It doesn't do much for me. Um other than the fact I I don't necessarily mind the the directional sign that they have with that. That doesn't look too terrible bad. But the the other round signs, I don't I don't
like that. The uh I do like the the uh some of the blue background signs um as well. But the one I really like the best is the third option with kind of the um uh the shiplap type of background and and that style.
>> I do too, but they didn't do that on some of the other >> that was my favorite too. >> These two are on that third set. Two of the signs are like that with the ship. But >> yeah, that was and I I was going to ask that. Did they leave that out accidentally or
>> it was just an option if you want to add that ship in there? >> They can do either or >> just to look and have an option. I like the shiplap in the background. I think it really >> and this it's a so it looks like shiplap is actually metal. So hold up to the look. No, I it and the styles of signs
they have there. If they would just apply that shiplap cross there, I think those those look great. Meet your intent for the vision of the city. >> Yeah. >> You on top of the digital sign, too. Well, this as far as digital, if you look at that big one that they had sitting out there, >> if you were to um kind of move that up
and then had the digital underneath it, >> I'd like to see what one of the long signs look like with that the shiplap look >> like the second set with their blue. Change the >> I like the blue. >> Yeah, >> but but I would like to see what it looks like.
>> And we're not necessarily bound to use everything the same either. I think maybe we could incorporate this other blue style in certain areas as well >> from from their sign directional expertise. They would they would want you to try to be similar so that you
know that that's a portrait sign. >> Oh, I see. >> I think the blue is too dark and I think it's going to fade almost immediately in the sun. >> Well, I'm not thinking about the actual color blue as much as you could the style with that shiplap in the background. You could have that little
kind of pennant look maybe some parts of the city as opposed >> I kind of like your first choice the third option. >> Yeah, it's by far the best looking one. I think >> the stone you could take the stone look like he just um um like the vice mayor just said and if you like that shiplap
design where it's not round but that kind of like slightly oval at the top and then the four, you know, a total of four sides and put that on the first one, you can do that. And that's what we're trying to get is total direction. Whatever you guys prefer, we'll let them know tomorrow because we have a follow-up meeting.
>> Yeah. Like >> the stone with the ship might be a little bit too much, don't you think? >> Are you talking about the the on the first image like >> Well, like S said, use the first one's base, but put the ship upside. >> I wouldn't mix that up. It'd be >> That's too busy. I think >> I like the I like the way they've got
the third one set up. >> I do, too. I like that that washboard uh fill in there. It's pretty simple, you know. >> Yep. And then the wood look. I guess that's metal, too. That's not wood, of course. Right. Correct. It's all metal. And then there that's cabling behind the sign. >> Yeah. That's
>> So that's not that's not washboarding. It's cabling. Okay. >> I Yeah, I don't like that white. Just the white at all. I think it would end up looking dirty and it would end up I just don't like it. >> Yeah, shiplap's very forgiving and it
just fits under our city real well. >> Yeah, it looks it looks really nice. I mean, I'd be okay with going with the third option altogether. >> That's that's exactly what I was thinking. What do you guys think? >> Agree. >> Derek, I have a question. When you look at the directional signs, >> I don't believe they're going to build
those shiplap unless because as I look at that, it it looks like that that's their standard directional sign base. >> They will they will >> Can they build a shiplap for it? >> They they will edit it as we're going to make that request that they edit it and incorporate the shiplap in there. They,
you know, depending on where the shiplap line lines up, they may have to be creative in their spacing a little bit or or we'll ask that of them in addition to the the probably on the entry sign or or that second level. These are levels of signs based on location. We'll get
them to place a uh digital sign. You could have one, you know, our our entry level signs, that large one may have a digital board, but you also may want one in front of, I don't know, police station, city hall, fire station. So, we'll get them to do those first two and see if they can incorporate a sign or a
digital messaging board in there as well. >> So, mayor, what do you think about the digital message board using that mo the model to the right and having the the digital uh sign underneath it with that capped on top of it?
>> You talking about this one here? >> Yes. >> So, you're saying a digital sign would be >> underneath it where that where that where that is. Now granted that's going to it's going to be higher and it's going to be wider >> but um that similar it's got the ship the back
>> you know panel with it and then build a larger one and then put you know it' be extremely bigger but you would you could actually fit your uh digital sign in that also. >> I don't know if we need the cable behind it though because you won't see it. >> Yeah.
>> But yeah I think it would be great. Well, the goal would be to marry it down so you don't see it and then bring it into the ground so that we can at least hide it. And we can we can have them help us with that to be able to, you know, have a uh it's set up so it hides
any of the cables that go. >> Well, there would there would be there would be one on each side, right? Digital front and back. >> For the one out front, city hall just having the front. >> Yeah, just the front. And then the one location that you guys had mentioned where actually can get visual, you know,
front and back, we can get that one out there and then it'll be it'll be an opportunity to be able to, you know, message to the community as they're coming and going. >> Part of the contract also requires them to come up with a placement plan. And so they're going to propose different
locations based on the sign type. We'll be able to edit those as we go through that process. We can add or omit the the two larger signs. will have uplighting. The uh pole sign for directional will have reflective based on DOT and the smaller department sign could have
uplighting as well. So yeah, it'll be good. >> Hey Don, >> yes. >> We we just built a u a digital sign at our dealership over on 19 and Pasco Sign across the street did that digital sign. We found them to be the most reasonably
priced and the best quality digital sign you can get. But what I what I did learn when they did the sign is because we have logos and we have styling for names and letters and all that stuff. You don't want to do both. You want to do you want to do name recognition, but
then you want a digital sign. You don't want to take up the whole thing with a big sign and also put on top of that or underneath that a digital sign because it's just too much. You want to give it a little bit of name like on top maybe would say Port Richie in our style letters. Yeah. But then you use the
digital sign to flash your logo and do other notices and things like that. You wouldn't do it twice. >> Yes, agreed. My last digital sign was like that. And what we did is we built, you know, just a I guess you could say a
a brick around it and then, you know, just just for just so somebody hit it, it would survive based on location we had it. What we did is all our other signs were different, but on that we just put our crest on the actual, you
know, fitment box of where that digital thing went. Um, right. >> That's an option, but I like your option that, hey, we can display it. >> Yeah, just display the logo and put the name right on the top, you know, permanently. >> Yeah. >> Um, where did you think the second one should go, Don? Because I understand the
first one at city hall. Where was the second one? We talked uh >> well, we we mentioned Yeah, you weren't at the uh the workshop. So, we uh we talked about somewhere incorporated into the Grand Boulevard uh renovation around there because we actually have some rideway that we could possibly put something there.
>> So, on a corner like a 45 degree corner where everybody at a stoplight can see it and read it. I think it's a great idea >> or or built into the median project somewhere along the median there >> originate. >> I think I think both those are great ideas. >> So, that's kind of what we talked about um on 19
>> on the incorporating the digital sign >> in there like if you look at the the the biggest one. >> If you take that the logo and move it to the left and put the Port Richie kind of what they did on on the vertical thing here. See how they kind of got that there? If you kind of put that along the
top of that and shrink that shape down. So you just got that at the top and and then the digital sign is the majority rectangle underneath it. Incorporate something like that. So it's not so so huge here and you got another huge digital sign. You kind of press it up to the top maybe kind of like what
they did here with the logo. >> And we'll ask them to provide, you know, two versions of it so that we can at least give you guys, you know, visual to to see which one's more aesthetically appealing. >> And if you can ask them, one thing I'd like to see in this um is on the border.
They've got like a kind of like a light gray going around it. >> If they could do a couple, which I like that. I wonder how it would look with the dark blue. I was wondering the same thing >> as a border to really um >> I didn't want to, you know, throw a wrench in everybody's >> just a quick I think the blue would take
>> the blue and do the orange. So we have three options. The gray the way we've got the blue border and then the orange just kind of see which one pops better. >> Okay. >> I think it's clean like it is and I think if you put all those colors around the outside, you're going to make it take away from what the sign actually >> maybe you're right but it'd be without seeing it's hard to visualize that. You
might be surprised, but it it does look nice the way it is, and I'm good with the way it is, but I would just like to see just before we invested the money what it might look like with darker border around it. >> I I'm with you, but I think more is not good when it comes to signs. Signs are better with less. They're more they're
more expressive, you know. >> Yeah. Okay. So I think uh do we need a motion or just by consensus to move forward on the I think consensus if I object to using the the theme of the third option
with the shiplap and then I'll see sign. >> Well that's what they're asking for. >> Yep. So no objections. >> We have consensus. Um, any public comment? >> Chopper Davos, 6110 Florida Avenue, New
Paritchi. Um, just just a note, I'd like you guys to take some time to look at the monument sign on the corner of Grand and Maine. I mean, on 19 in Maine, and then going down Main Street, there's another one. And there's one over by the um library and also by the rec center. And
the the thing that I think you'd have the most problem with is that is not the building of the sign itself, but having enough space to have enough um print that people can read it because when you're coming north on 19, you can't see that digital sign. You can't read the digital sign if you're paying attention
to your traffic at all, you know. So take make that the the digital part is more important than the color of the sign. People will start recognize it then they'll want to read it >> you know. So consider that because we have in my opinion we have very little
wording because of the ability to read it. >> Yeah. And as far as placement too the uh to have it in the middle of 19 somewhere where it's not a stop sign or anything. So if we incorporate like a grand where there is a stop sign that's going to happen. It helps. >> Yeah. you need to stop time because I mean if you're that one that's a
monument sign there on 19 and and Maine basically if you're coming north you can't see it unless you're the first one to stop there but if you're going south and you're don't get don't stop you're not even looking at that sign you pretty much only time you're looking at it is when you you're going to turn left you're going south and you're going to
turn left >> we owe you feedback on placement and we'll work with the company to say hey where would be the best place for you know a dual face sign that best allows us to communicate with with the residents in the community.
>> Yeah. And I don't know if you've seen New Or's digital sign that they put out there, but it might be worth kind of see what they've got to as we look at ours. >> Look at all four. >> Yeah. >> Okay. I I'm tracking. That's one of the reasons I kind of brought it up because I was Hey, they got it. last place I was
at, we had it and it was it was a good source of dist distribution of information because everybody drove by it, everybody read it and it helped, you know, us to get out to the public and provide those critical things. One of the big ones was voting.
>> So getting people to vote, knowing where to vote and what the days and date and times were. >> Council meeting tonight, town hall meeting tonight. >> Yes. And that's one of the things that I I'd really like to get on it because, you know, hopefully people are reading it, they become more interested in our council meetings and they show up
because my goal is I I prefer less TV watching and more participation because I'd like them to come in here and, you know, >> throw us throw us curve balls, you know, let us solve their problems. >> We can't see. >> What's that?
>> We can't see the signs that you're looking at. >> That's right. I'm just saying >> we Oh, yeah. I f them up there. Let me share real quick. >> I'm just saying that's something you guys got a lot about. >> Yeah. Yeah. So,
that >> Well, it's in a packet was public distributed that I put up there. If you just show Let me do that real quick. I don't think so. We get the show. Good, good feedback. >> Scratching head wondering what we're
talking about. >> Yeah. So, the uh branding sign selection. So, what we here was the options. The first one was uh close that. These are the rounded ones we were talking about. And then they had the the blue background. And
the one that the council had uh like a consensus went with was this set here. So, okay. >> Hell yeah. >> Next up is item number three, fiscal year 2425 annual report. I'll pass that
to you. >> Okay. He knows he's ready for it. So, according to state law, CRAAS must do perform an annual report. It must be published on their website by March 31st. This year, we have the report for you. I just going to go through it real
quick. We have the cover page, the the usual information that's on there, executive summary and the introduction. the the map that you see there is the accurate map after going through the property appraiser. Uh we I uh manually edited the map. So that
one is a good one to reference. We did performance measures. So the city attorney informed me about a week prior to due date that there was a new law passed that required special districts to do a goals and objectives summary.
And by definition, CRAAS are special districts. So that uh shows itself as a performance measure section here. And so created some performance measures, the difference in taxable value you see there. We also established a tiered approach to evaluating our projects, our
CIP plan. And so we go and we everything's referenced to the CRA plan. That's again uh that is what we are bound by. And so going off of those goals and projects, we demonstrated
whether or not we have achieved the goal of the project, whether we're in progress or whether or not we have uh started and we give a pretty good explanation. Uh there is an achieve the community program since the CRA grants are so successful. We thought that was
an achieved goal for us. Uh a lot of these are just in progress. the, you know, based off of the original 2024 plan, the waterfront redevelopment. Now, that was kind of put on hold for various reasons. So, we have that not not achieved. We'll probably update the plan
to show the chamber priorities for that in in the coming year. Then, of course, there's the financial statement, which is general information that's in all of these. As I look back and what we've actually spent, I did a change prior year. You can see that. and
then an average change throughout the timeline of the table. And that's for we have our revenue, we have expenditures separated in the personnel costs, operating expenditures and community programs. And the community programs are your grant programs and your sunlight
demolitions and the contingencies. The uh finance director puts in a contingency for this area as well. the capital improvement project the board approved a few months ago and so this is a requirement of CRAAS to specifically demonstrate how they're
going to be spending the money over a period of time and you know have a relatively specific synopsis of what they plan on doing here we have the overall description of the project under branding and wayfinding
the source of revenue the proposed schedule as uh best we could summize at the time. It's also important to know how the project aligns with the CR plan. So, we put that in there as well. And so, we have that style for your branding
and wayfinding project, your Basher Park Improvement, Miller Bayou Drive, Pocket Park. That's a piece of layout we got from the county across from Olner Park. I just gave it a name to give it a name. Nick Parks improvement,
Olner Park improvement, strategic property acquisitions, the US 19 and Grand Boulevard intersection improvement and the US 19 medians beautifification project. And at the end of that, you have the
capital improvement five-year funding plan, spending plan based on at the time that the the plan was approved. Of course, as we go through the park project plan and we get the conceptuals done, this will get updated and approved again by the board as we set priorities
based on our reasonable uh cost of construction. And actually I you know I have a working uh summary that I use try to play around and see how things uh change each other if we if we change
different you know cost of things. And so on that working Excel I actually added a an additional year that puts us out to our sunset so we know exactly what we're looking at that sunset date in 2032.
And so the reason why this is done so early is that the we received a formal request by the Paso County Administrator's office for the report. And so we wanted to make sure that our board saw the report first before we gave it out. And so as soon as you know probably the
next day or two, we'll make sure that we fulfill that request to the county. Well, D, this goes back to, you know, that strategic plan that I would like to engage, you know, because it's going to become very intense. It's going to become very public. It's going to be
specific um based on that information. Is that just the information that they need in general? This is generally what's >> or does it prevent me from being very direct and focused on the accomplishment
of our strategic CRA plan by aligning dates, times, money, those things will have to be voted on years. >> Those will have to be voted on by the board as the CRA rules. Any changes in the CRA plan, your budget and your CIP plan, those are approved annually or
upon change. So if we if staff comes up with a great idea, SA core says sure, we'll have to formally get that adopted into the into the working. >> Absolutely. I agree. But what I'm looking at is being able to present a
strategic plan for conceptual approval or for adjustment. >> We can take what we have now with the CIP program. If you want to make that the plan, we can make tweaks to it, but we'll have to come back to the board for approval. >> Okay. And then I I think the uh last
is is clearly identifying you know the strate you know the the the strategic objectives of those CRA U projects because you talk about 19 the road we really haven't really defined
what that project is and so being able to say hey our goal is we get DPW out there the assess the road or DOT And so our actual effort is going to be between street X and street Y because everything else is in great shape. And
so we're so we're at least, you know, focusing on >> the right the right target and we're the money in a way in which benefits our strategic goals, you know, long term across the board with all of our
projects. There are certainly some of these plans that are further along than others. The US9 beautifification is actually being driven by the grant we received. So there are some that we have to so that one's further along uh than others. You know the parks I think we'll get a lot of insight once we get to
through the conceptual design. We take it out the engineering to get cost construction estimates and then we can present that to the board and at that point prioritize what projects what they look like and how they want to implement that. Thank you. Yeah. So, no action for this. Just wanted to
let you know before we send it to the county. Okay. Any questions? Okay. Moving right along. Uh, next up is item number four, 5250, Miller Bayou demolition purchase order approval. I'll
pass it to Mr. King for introduction. I'm not tied to that one right now, unfortunately. On day seven, >> you know, and you know, that the the theory behind this is is based on what the city has approved for demolitions and gone through the process. The
building department uh through the CRA is wanting is wanting to fund the demolition of the three properties. And so this is the process for bidding those out. they wanted to get ahead of it so that we meet the timelines that were established by the city. So, we're just
trying to approve the the bids here. >> What about the county program that we just had a discussion about a couple of weeks, a couple meetings ago >> where the man came in from Pasco and said like for instance the um the couple that uh on Green Street
>> um tree came through the house. I believe that they would qualify for the program with Pasco, but it looks like we're looking to invest our money into demoing that. >> So, >> we get reimbured from Pasco.
>> Um, >> from a demo, I don't know. >> I don't remember what the Pasco thing is. >> So, why would we not want to go that avenue? >> I don't know what the Pasco thing >> we a gentleman came in here. There was a program from Pasco. >> We'll actually ask that question next
Thursday. next Thursday and and I'm in contact with that actual representative because I'm working annexation stuff through them also right now at least as far as the property issues and items um when it comes to structures. Um so I'll I'll reach out to them. I'll see what
information I can get from them on that because I would prefer to pull in Pasco County dollars and do it if they're available to us, >> right? >> Because I I prefer to spend other people's money before I want to invest, you know, our budget into other things. So CRA is funded by Pasco too. So
there's somewhat of Pasco money addition money. >> This would be additional pass. >> Right. Right. Right. That's what I mentioned. >> It depends if they qualify because there was a lot of qualifications. >> But they were they fit that that couple fit you know if you remember his
qualifications about the the age. >> Well that would be if if they actually >> right but have we guided them towards that? I don't know if you can millions. >> I'm sorry. Listen, I think we need and I
don't want to spend CRA dollars any more than you do, >> but remember the idea here is to get that street cleaned up because you got neighbors who are complaining about the house being in dilapidated condition. They can't even sell their property. >> So, for us to keep dragging this on, I don't know if that's wise for us to make
as a >> again, we can ask a question. the specific one that's next on the agenda. Uh they have till the 31st to do it themselves anyway. So I think the answer we found out if there is a if the path to funding that we could ask for reimbursement or something like that, I think we could still move forward um get
it taken care of and it possibly get reimbured on on the back end from some kind of grant or whatever. Um but yeah, per code, we need to keep these things moving forward for sure. >> It's leaned with the CRA receiving the the lean CRA be putting out the money. So those properties are leaned and then
once paid it goes back into CRA, >> right? >> And who pay who pays them? You said >> so. So the CRA is the funding mechanism. The decision for demolition is solely with the city. However, the CRA is the funding mechanism for the demolition activity.
>> So yeah, the the approval here if we move forward after we approve. So this you know staff obviously moves forward on this. This just gives them the authorization to have it demoed at the cost that they've got here. Uh once they do that then that um that the lean gets established on the property when it
changes hands and that gets paid. >> Okay. On this particular one for the 5250 the number from SC signature construction is 19316 and in the second paragraph it's 17666.
Is there a reason which are we approving? >> Yeah that's incorrect. They're they're they're referencing well actually it's in the uh the purchase request shows 17666 as well. >> I think their cover page is wrong.
>> I was going to see what the >> there's also another typo that fund actually has $200,000 allocated to this >> in the actual actual proposal from SC it says 19316. >> So that's the number. >> Okay. So just the paragraph. >> So in the motion make sure the motion is
set up for 19 316. So, >> I make a motion we are you looking for a motion? >> Yeah, looking for a motion. >> Make a motion that we approve the demolition of 5250 Miller Bayou Drive for the 19 uh three What's the dollar amount they have?
>> With SC construction, >> 19316 with SC construction. >> Okay. Is there a second? >> Second. >> Motion to second. Any further discussion? Any public comment? Seeing none, to put a vote all in favor signify by saying I. I >> I >> I >> opposed. Okay, motion carries. Okay,
next up is item number 5, 8642 Green Street, demolition purchase order approval. Um, same thing. It's just a different property. Um, correct. >> The, uh, let's see, this is the one I wanted to. >> Yeah, this is the one next door. So, I did have a question on this as we got
these estimates because obviously I think the next one was 19. was 19 as well or something close but this one was 25712 from SC there's lowest bid um is that because there's a pool at that property that's costing that because it's the same size property pretty much as the
one >> that's what it looks like there's a pool in the backyard fil I thought um and then um the only other question I had on this and the one after is obviously they're right next door to each other did when we got these estimates did they did they look at
these as one offs or today. I assume there'd be some savings because they could do both on the same at the same time, have the equipment there and do both. It's supposed to mobilize the equipment twice. And I don't know how you do that other than go out to bid on the the joint
>> make them Yeah. make them part of one bid that happened. >> And I I mentioned that to Veronica and I I thought they were pursuing it that way, but they're individual here, so I don't know if that was consideration or not. The second property on Green Street, Eric, is only 17,000 and some of
the other bids are like 26 and 21. >> So maybe with the uh our our local SC sign Signature Construction, they were cutting us slack on doing both of the same time. >> It could could be, but I again it's close to that 19,000 on the Miller B. Is
it Miller Bay? Um and then um 20 the 25 obviously with the pool. So I I I wonder too because that other problem is in pretty bad shape. It probably come down a little easier. But I don't know. Do we just
>> I don't have any answers to those questions >> from a legal >> from a legal perspective if we move forward and accept this are we able to engage with say hey we we've authorized >> you accept you accept that you accept their bid and then you negotiate the contract. Right. So there's still another another step in it. So you can
ask those questions. Um, >> so we can possibly lower the cost together if they have both, I guess. Is that >> you can always ask? >> I mean, why not? >> Yeah, they can say no. They can say this is what we're going to do. The question can be asked. Yes. >> Okay. >> Because we have to still have to
negotiate contract. >> Okay. So, that sounds good. It's look like we can if you guys are ready for a motion to uh approve this >> motion to approve uh the demolition purchase order of 8642 Grand Street.
>> Second motion second. Any further discussion >> that verify specify >> with these construction at their cost >> 25712 >> 25712 >> you can just say with construction
>> at their cost >> just specify the the contract >> SC construction >> SC con >> okay is there a second you second that second okay any discussion any public comment see put the vote on favor signify by saying I I
>> I opposed. Motion carries. And uh next up is item number 6, 8648 Green Street, purchase order approval. Um same thing. It's a house next door. Look for a motion. >> Motion to approve SC signatures
construction proposal to demolition the property at 8648 Green Street um for $17,650. >> Second. I got Bob I think. >> Motion second. Any further discussion? >> I don't care. I sure
>> any public comment seem to put a vote. All in favor signify by saying I. >> I. >> I. >> I. >> Opposed. Motion carries. >> Um that's all uh board business. Next up is count from the board. I'll start my left this time with member Burke.
>> I don't have anything. >> Vice chair. Mayor. >> Uh I'm good to go, sir. >> Okay. Member Hubard. Okay. And I know Christine, me, you had something. >> I still had the question from a resident. Could we add town homes or why
are why are town homes excluded if they're owned from the CRA residential grant program? >> Yeah. >> And can they be added? >> I have a response for that because I did hear the question. And so under the uh current rules, single family homes and duplexes are allowed. It doesn't
specifically state town homes. So I'll have to add those in. I believe the the only uh town home community I can think of that is in this area is probably the Marina Palms. If that's the case, we'll have to figure out how to address HOA requirements too. We'll have to add that. The board will have to approve adding that in there as well because of
course the HOA will have a approval process as well. So we'll have to add those too. And uh that's the only example I can think of of a town home. I checked there are some that are homesteaded. So they would qualify other than just the definition and then we also have to figure out the HOI piece. >> So I know you got to make some adjustments. So, is there any objections
to adding town homes to make sure we extend that to the those kind of owners? >> So, so I'll I'll make the I'll make the adjustments in in the plan. I'll have to bring it back for a formal attack, which we got to make some changes anyway, right? We talked about earlier, right? >> As long as they own them in our homestead, same same as everything else.
>> Do we want to lump all the changes and want to do one large change? We'll get everything all these pieces from the the workshop and now together. >> So, you okay with that? >> Yeah. Okay. >> Okay. Anything else? No, that's okay. >> I have nothing as well. Um, so look for
a motion. >> Motion to >> motion to adjurnn. >> You want to second that, Chris?
