giving you my input. I'm a taxpayer. I'm a god-fearing American. And you know, there there's more to to my words than just uh an opinion. You know, there's there's experience. There's there's a uh things that I see every day in this
community. So, uh I'd like to start off by uh talking about your guys' uh salaries and the benefits that you guys receive here in the city of Sweetwater. Uh, mayor, you receive, I believe, uh, $195,000
a year on top of uh, retirement. Is that is that correct or no? You know, words. Um, >> Mr. Attorney, could you inform the gentleman that we do not have to enter in any dialogue that he is here to make a statement? Sure. >> Under the city code, all comments are to
be directed to the chair, who is the um >> Hi, >> commission president, Marcos Vanoa. Um the the commission president may choose to interact with you or may choose not to interact with you. The questions posed to anyone else are actually inappropriate under our city code.
>> Okay. Do my three minutes get set back uh due to this? Uh >> you can talk to me. I'll give you I'll give you some time. Go ahead, sir. >> Yeah. Yeah, the mayor makes $195,000 a year on top of uh a retirement that he gets. Uh each and every single one of
you, you know, taking into account your salary and your benefits and your, you know, your your monthly car stipened, which I think a year is uh $7,200 bucks, you guys uh walk away with $50,000, $400. Uh $50,400.
Uh compared that, you know, we could break it down. Sweetwater per resident. Each resident pays $21 a year. Dorado pays $76 per resident. Uh 197% more than Sweetwater. Miami Beach, $953,
uh 120% more than Sweetwater. Cutler Bay, $8.80 per resident, 139% more than Sweetwater. South Miami, $14.88, 41% more than Sweetwater. Uh, and all those cities
have full-time, professionally trained city managers working 40 hours a week. I'm curious as to how many hours a month you guys spend here in Sweetwater to justify that pay and those benefits that you get, $7,200 a year for your for your
cars and your payments while kids can't go play basketball at the park because God knows what reason. You know, I pray, you know, I pray that God figures that out. So yeah, I mean the numbers are the
numbers are scary. I I I I would love to see like a punch card that you guys put in cuz uh Leo over or Ian couldn't even make it on time to a once a month commissioner meeting. He just walked in at let's see what time he walked in exactly
6:05. He can't make it once a month because last last month he was late too. and he gets $7,000 and 200 bucks to pay for his car that got him here. >> You done?

compliance for the city of Sweetwater. On Monday, June 9th, 2025, officer compliiance receive information from the Florida Department of Business and Professional
Regulations regarding construction being performed by two unlicensed contractors at the property located at 10634 Southwest 5th Street. The reported information resulted in the
case being open and assigned to code officer Nicholas Mendlesber. Okay. Through the course of the of Nicholas Mendlesburg investigations, he observed that the garage opening was being closed
seal with CBS block. In addition to no building permit for that work was being done. Nicholas Mendlesburg immediately issue a stop work order red tag and notice
excuse me and notice an issue a notice of violation for work being done without a permit on Thursday June 12th the owner of the property located at 10634 Southwest
history contacted code officer Nicholas Ne Mendlesburg during In the meeting, the owner of the property presented several emails attempting to contact the contractor, but to no avail.
Uh, let's see. Replied the email numerous telephone numbers from the owner presented the code officer Nicholas Mendesburg with a police report. The owner of the property, a 67year-old
retired resident of the city of Sweetwater, had entered into a contract with the South Florida Homebuilders Association Corporation for renovations and installation of a new septic tank system and remodeling of
his house. During the agreement of the contract, the contracted the contractor collected a total of $113,000 from the property owner. Okay. Nicholas Mendlesberg immediately identified the
problem and realized the money had been taking place and no work was being performed by the contract. Based on the information gathered by code officer Nicholas Mendesburg, the code case was transferred to the Sweetwater Police
Department for further investigation. As a result of Nicholas Mendlesburg thoroughess and detailed review of gathering information and several charges were levied against both unlicensed contracts. Subsequently,
these unlicensed contractors were charged by the city of Sweetwater Police Department, Miami Day County Sheriff's Department, the city hyalia for grand theft and defrauding and elderly. [Applause]
I want to tell you that we're very proud that even though it's a very tedious and hard job doing code enforcement because you have to go out and enforce the rules that are set by you all and of course the state of Florida, Miami date county,
but it's very difficult to sit there and in today's world that people are trying to do something and having these uh predator contractors coming in and promising the world and then not delivering everything. The first way they start is to try to bandangle the
the the people that are trying to get the job done up, especially the elderly, and telling them that they're going to get permits and they're going to do everything and they don't. They just say they do and they charge them for it. There's all kinds of scandals going on at this time. So, it gives me great pleasure to know that we have employees
that have taken it not just to the point of finding somebody or doing something. and it's just going further and making sure there's a solution and and in this case Nick has done an incredible job in doing that and therefore and I'm sorry I didn't recognize real fast but I was
paying attention to something else. So but I uh I am very glad that uh we made him employee of the month. So I don't know how you got first before,
>> but we'll deal with that later. >> I'll take it from you. Right back to you, Sure. Here you go. >> Ready? Let's try this for real this time. >> I get behind you here. >> Okay, hold on. Hold on. I want to make
sure I look good. Appreciate it. You always look good. No, no, I try. All right. Not working. All right. Ready? >> Gentlemen, tight. >> Mr. American Scott in the picture. [Music]
>> Father, come on in. All right. congratulations again on being the uh employee of the month. >> I'm sure uh our finance director is a proud papa. Item six, presentation of officer of the month award.
>> Good evening. Han Messa, major police operations division, Sweetwater Police Department. Officer of the month, June 2025. On June 8th, at approximately 9:30 p.m., Officer Anastaselia Gonzalez was conducting traffic enforcement near 107th Avenue
and West Flaggler Street. While doing so, she was flagged down by a juvenile male who reported being the victim of an attempted armed robbery. The victim stated that while waiting to cross the street at 107 and Southwest 4th Street, he was approached by a male
subject who struck him with a metal pipe and tried to steal his cell phone. The victim resisted and the subject fled the area. Acting swiftly, Officer Gonzalez broadcasted a detailed and accurate be on the lookout for the suspect. Moments later, while still speaking with the
victim, Officer Gonzalez observed an individual matching the subject's description approaching her while openly carrying a metal pipe. Demonstrating remarkable composure and tactical discipline, she drew her firearm and issued loud, clear commands to the
subject. After repeated verbal instructions, the subject complied and dropped the weapon. Officer Gonzalez then requested backup and upon the arrival of additional units, the subject was taken into custody. Officer Gonzalez's ability to maintain composure
and control under intense pressure exemplifies the highest standards of the Sweetwater Police Department. Her swift and decisive actions ensured the safety of the victim and nearby bystanders, effectively preventing a potentially violent situation from escalating. She
displayed sound judgment and utilized appropriate deescalation techniques while maintaining the utmost professionalism. For these reasons, we recognize officer Anastelia Gonzalez as officer of the month June 2025.

hearing is now closed. Commissioner B, you have the floor. Um well, this is what we discussed a while ago, a couple months ago, just to um reduce the neighborhood advisory neighborhood improvements advisory board from seven members just down to five. Uh we discussed that that would be a here in a
commission meeting. We discussed it. It would be >> just five members and then um that it would be the mayor that appoints the members and we ratify and also it makes it a requirement that all the members be city residents. >> Move if I could
>> motion by commissioner point of order. Mr. Tur, go ahead. >> Yes. I I would like to suggest to Commissioner Vio uh an amendment that will clarify the language a little bit more >> where it states required for the commissioners prior to consideration by
the city commission. I would suggest that it be substituted with the following language as required for elected officials in to qualify for election prior to consideration by the city commission. That makes it clear as
to what the requirement is. the requirement to provide documentary proof of residency to the same standards that elected officials have to provide them as as a requirement for uh qualifying for office which is not in here exactly. >> It was implied but I think that this
language a little bit clearer. >> Sure. Yeah, you can go ahead and add that. Go ahead and add that. >> Okay. So, >> motion to amend. >> Motion. >> Is that accurate? >> Yes.

city commission of the city of Sweetwater accepting and approving grants of easement for the installation of a bus shelter or bus bench and the terms contained therein providing for authority and providing for an effective date. Mayor Diaz. >> Thank you, Mr. President. And this is an
item that the attorney has been working with me uh to get, but we still with the engineering has to we have to come up with some specification of property. Uh but that we need to move on this item. This is for the bus bench that we have promised the elderly in the in the
Sweetwater Tower because they have nothing to cover them um there from the sun and the elements and and so on uh weather elements. So the issue is I'm also working Alejandro and making sure that the walkway the where the bench is
on the south side will be a little further up. And then we already asked the owner went and met with the owner of the property where we could try to get a piece of their property. He's already committed to it so we could put a nice bus bench on the
other side with shade and everything. But because of the size of the sidewalk, we have ADA compliance. So we need to get a piece of his property. He's already willing to do so. Uh we just need this resolution to go forward and and then we just fill out. I will not
sign it until we have this specific uh side of property, which we should get pretty fast. But I don't want to keep delaying it until a month from now. Uh I want to move on this and already spoke to Day County. Day County has been out there. The transit department, they're moving on it. As you can see, we have
the three-way stop. >> Yes. >> That has been put in that we promised them and we committed to it and we're doing it. Now, we're going to fix the bus situation that they had. So, and I got more to tell you later, but this is why I need to move on this item and then we'll fill it in.
>> I'll second it. >> Commissioner Sal, this is the floor. >> Mayor, is this is going to be only for that street, Fifth Street? Are you going to do it on 1072? >> No, this is only for that particular area because that's why we need the exact information so it could be part of the uh ordinance. Is it is it an or
>> resolution? >> Resolution. I'm sorry. The resolution and making sure that we get it exact to the property. So, if we need to do something somewhere else, we are already I'll I'll put that in my report to talk about it later. >> Yeah. 107.
>> But it there's there's something going on with all the bus benches that I need to do, but we have promised to the elderly. >> I got you. >> And I want to keep that promise to them. >> Thank you. >> And moving it as fast as we possibly can. >> Thank you. Understand. Thank you, mayor. move. So you would be passing it with the understanding that the that the
mayor would have the authority to fill in the blanks for the actual legal description for the property at Sweetwater Tower. Is that correct? >> That's correct. >> Okay. >> Yes. >> Commissioner Yan with a motion seconded by >> and Commissioner Raldray.
Uh roll call. Is this a reszo? >> Yes, sir. >> All in favor? >> I opposed. >> Excellent. >> Thank you, mayor. Thank you very much. She'll be >> We're not kicking that can down the road anymore. >> Now you have staff item 11, which is the
K9 resolution. >> All right. Staff item 11E. A resolution of the city commission of the city of Sweetwater retiring certain K9 officer declaring said K9 officer surplus city property and to have no market
marketable value. Providing I disagree with that. providing for authority and providing for an effective date. >> And I I your last comment was very well taken, but unfortunately through the resolution, that's the way we have to put it. So based on on this particular
uh officer, K-9 officer, the officer is now gotten to the point that he was retired I think uh a week ago. if you want to step up here, deputy chief. And the officer uh that there was two K9s
retired. The one officer uh has accepted his K9 officer to live with him. The other has not. So therefore, that puts us in a position that the chief had the deputy chief has been trying to figure a way uh to deal
with it. So chief, you want to add from that point on? Uh, Mr. Mayor, Commission, uh, Noel Gil, Deputy Chief of Police for the City of Sweetwater Police Department, 500 Southwest 109th Avenue. Uh, yes. Uh, last week we retired two of our brave uh, Kines's
after many years of service uh, in excess both of 10 years, uh, K9 Boss and K9 Fox. Uh K9 Fox is actually going through uh a bit of uh of an arthritis issue uh that while we were maintaining
him, you know, we were we were actually paying for the shots and everything. So um but uh at this point it's become a burden uh to the K9 handler for other personal reasons that he has. Uh so therefore we went ahead and we found a
reputable rescue that is willing to take the dog. um and uh and therefore allowing him to live the rest of its natural life in a in a pleasant uh location that actually uh deals with those particular kinds of canines,
Belgian Malamois in this case, and they also have other uh retired police canines that have been uh >> given to the uh >> to the rescue. This is uh a little difficult after we've all known
um K9 that we're talking about, but this will be probably the best solution because these people in these particular rescues really take care of the dogs and they give them a a restful >> Yes. >> uh way of life until uh he's 13.
>> He is currently 13 years old. Yes. >> 13 years old. So this is uh why we have this before you and this is the best solution that we were able to deal with. >> Uh I have a question.
So I have I have a big problem with this because I know that dog I've worked with that dog and I know the handler. U I haven't spoken to the handler. You're saying that the handler for that dog who was with him for 11 years refuses to keep him? Sir, he's having personal issues and
obviously >> I know his issues are >> the dog with the current uh his current state. Um it becomes rather cumbersome. >> Okay, Mr. Mayor, I got a big problem with this. Um that particular officer is
out right now. I'm not going to mention his name. Um but he wor he worked with that dog, that cop for 11 years. And >> does he know that it's going to this rescue? Uh, >> yes. >> He knows it's going to a rescue. Yes,
>> he chose it. >> Well, we chose the rescue because we wanted to make sure that it was a reputable rescue. >> I understand. I u I'm respectfully requesting that we table this item because I'd like to personally speak to that officer, Mr. Mayor. If not, I'm going to vote no on this. Um, if that
officer is fine with it, then okay. But I I respectfully request that we just table this item. I have no problem voting on it after. But this is this this is big. He was with that that dog for 11 years. >> And and >> just what I have to say.
>> Notice and uh >> I know you have a problem I know you have a problem with it, too. >> Huh? I'm sorry. >> I know you have a problem with it, too. I know this hits home. >> This is uh not an easy thing, but I I also tell you that that man standing right there has tried everything and
where the rest of the department could probably testify that that is exactly what they tried to do. But due to the circumstances and I know that you were probably because you were out and and we didn't have a chance to brief but in this particular case it is the most
humane situation because if not the dog has to be put into a type of a kennel and and in its condition it might not be the best thing for the for the dog. I'm the first one to try to find a different solution as you know. I mean, I come from all the way from building the
animal center in Day County. So, some people call it the Taj Mahal because it's so so nice for animals, but I understand the need. Now, what we want to do is the best thing we could do for an officer. And by the way,
when I say K9 officers, I mean because we look at that K9 as an officer. So it served our city for 10 years. >> 11. >> Yes, sir. >> 11. >> 11. >> So this is the reason why we want to try to do this. I don't want to delay for
that fact, but I could give you my word if that man up there tells me that they have looked at everything and they talked. I don't want to bring something like this out and put some people in a bad position. But it wasn't done in any way, shape. The person has already agreed to it.
everything due to his personal issues that I would not want to get in into it up here. So I tell you that this is the best solution that we could find. I don't know what could come up between now and then but putting it in a cano I don't think is going to be the best
solution for the animal also. >> I hear you. All right, >> chair commissioner Zeldas. >> A you said that the uh the officer it's agree 100%. >> Yes.
>> Okay. How many dogs do we have in total? >> Uh currently we have seven dogs with Fox. >> Seven dogs in total. >> Yeah, seven dogs in total. >> How many how many? And those seven dogs, how many you guys retire already? >> Two. >> Two.
>> These two. Yeah, these two, B and Fox. >> Okay. All right. >> Do we have a motion for this item? >> Move. >> Second. >> Motion by Commissioner Yananiel, second by Commissioner Siaz. All in favor say I. >> I. >> I.
>> Any opposed? Nay. Item passes. All right. Do we have anything else? Item Do we have I think that's it. Right, Corman? >> No, I'm aware of that. Do we have any other?
>> Good. Item D, nomination, consideration, appointment of members to the Youth Advisory Board. >> We're going to kick that can down the road. >> Well, you can you can actually kick it down the road because the the or >> I was going to say something. You don't mind, Rob. >> Oh, I'm sorry.
>> Um, Mr. Mayor, I'm gonna create legislation. Uh, do we need the youth advisory board for any grant funding other than ceremonial >> that we're aware of at this moment? My
grant uh director says that she's not aware of any. >> Okay. Uh, Mr. Attorney, can you please draft up language to eliminate the Youth Advisory Board? >> I'm making an of it right now. And
if the mayor or so chooses, he can go ahead and appoint his own committee if we need it for grant funding. At this point, I've been here for eight years. The youth advisory board has never even met once. >> Well, M uh Mr. president. The issue is
depending on the grants that we go after and I think some people up here have experience sometimes we need to have x amount of type of boards that might reflect in particular grants that are going I know it sounds kind of strange but is it the way the
federal grants are and the state grants are too um some of the stuff that the county has produced I don't see it it's mostly just awarding monies of need but the other grants tend to have a lot of uh just like the county has certain things. County is in order to receive
the money, you got to hire certain people. You got to have, you know, certain type of situations added to it. Same thing with the federal government. Uh they require a lot of things and so does the state. So if I see something, I think we're good for now, but we're
applying for a lot more. And if I see something that needs to be done, we'll put something together. Okay? and some of the people that might be in this group. Uh I have no problem uh to make sure but I do I do not want I
think what the board has been very clear especially you Mr. President that you guys do not want boards to have boards. Okay. So any board that we put together it'll be working and I think everybody's been pretty clear up here and stating it. Uh but I I do want to make sure that
it's something sound for the city as we're going through everything. All right. Well, hopefully you can utilize them somehow. I've been here for eight years and I've never seen them meet once. >> Through the chair. Through the chair. >> Commissioner Ian Vice. >> Yeah. So, look, yeah, we we really don't need a youth advisory board. I I've done
a lot of different grants for different cities. There really is I don't think it there there's there isn't really a grant that needs that requires a youth advisory board from that I've come across. The neighborhood improvements board. Yeah, that's required. some kind of street and park beautifification thing that's required in a lot of
grants, but youth not really the purpose of that. It was just to get youth involved, develop a partnership with FIU and stuff like that. But if you guys don't have an appetite for that, then we don't really need that. So, um, but the just a little slight correction, they
did meet, uh, I believe two times, but there really isn't much that they can do since it's just advisory. Um, The last thing, um, it would be a good idea to do something with FIU, but we may we don't need a board to do that.
So, um, yeah, I'm fine with getting rid of it. I just didn't want to be the one that does the legislation because one of my very good friends is the one that put that in in in place. >> So, I'm courtesy. I don't want to do it. >> Um, Mr. President, >> if you do it,
>> uh, I don't do does he need, Mr. attorney to have resolution evaluated or they could do it by simple vote. >> I'm sorry to to dissolve the youth advisory board. No, you need to do that by ordinance. >> By ordinance. Well, because these were ordinance done by ordinance. Okay.
>> All right. >> I got and also I'm sorry. I appreciate that additive language that you that you came up with because that language puts people that are residents have been in Sweetwater for X amount of time and at
least that uh curtails people from moving in and just getting on a board and and and dealing with the >> Yes, sir. Thank you. I have a sorry through the chair. I have a question for the attorney. >> Um is there a way I'm also you know we can dissolve it but also is I'm just
curious because I I've seen it done with past boards before that they're there but they don't come up on the agenda like they're put in like a deactivated status so we don't have to talk about it every single meeting. I don't know. Is that something that >> what I would recommend
is to reddraft the ordinance to make it fall along the same lines as the neighborhood advisory board, giving the mayor the opportunity to nominate five people to it and reconstitute the board on an as needed basis if it were
ever needed in the future. uh but not to keep it as an ongoing uh entity of the city since they're really I familiar I'm familiar with the board as well. They really haven't done anything in the last six or seven years, however long they've been uh
incorporated, but the um the ordinance can uh dissolve the board as as a current standing entity. uh give the mayor the authority to appoint members to it with the advice
and consent of the city commission on an ad hoc and as needed basis. >> Actually, with all due respect, um I think that we could eliminate if I only need one board uh for the grants. Uh then let's go with that and I'll appoint
them and uh they have to do they do have to get a disclosure. they have to go through all the process that any board official board of the city will have to do. Uh, and with that language you added in, I have no problem. But if you could eliminate >> everything and go to what the necessity
is, I think that'll be helpful for us. Now, in the future, if we need to create something uh for some development as we move forward and looking at some of the developments and things taking place in the city, uh I'll bring that before the board when it comes to that time or talk
individually with each one of you uh ahead of time. But I think at this point this is if it's not needed, let's just go ahead because I understand what Commissioner was is trying to do is just basically not bring it up anymore. Am I
correct? Yeah. Well, it's just consider the options. I mean, I don't mind getting rid of it. I don't mind doing the other thing. Does doesn't matter. Just I just want to look at different options at all the options. Put everything on the table. >> That's between us. >> All right. That sounds like a great idea. I wish I would have come up with
it. Um, mayor's report. >> We have um I just told you about the three-way stop signs. something that I think took a very long time to get done. I don't understand, but we got it done
pretty fast after the last meeting. >> Yeah. So, and I thank Miami Date County and Miami Day County's transit uh for coming up and and really stepping up and making that happen. The other thing that we're doing, I told you, is the bus
benches and we'll get that done expedited. The other issue we have is that the elderly have a sidewalk. uh they come out of that building and then they have u pondage of water uh taking place there. It floods in that particular sidewalk. So they caught a
cross in the middle of the street to walk around it and um we are taking care of that and I know my two guys are sitting over there. I think that we're pretty much ready to go and we'll be presenting that probably by the next meeting. Hopefully it will be done by
the next meeting so they will no longer have to go through uh the middle of the street or across to the other side to get over, you know, or go to the elderly center. >> Okay. >> Yes.
Um, we're bringing as I promised uh each one of you individually, we are moving certain things around to make it even more efficient and making sure that we could provide faster and more
efficient services uh to the each department and make sure they become efficient in every way possible and moving forward. And one of those is costbearing. um you will go through the budget and we'll work through the budget.
Everything is pretty much set. Uh but again, I'll be with each one of you when we get together and go over your needs and and so on as to moving forward. I believe that and I know I'm going to be asked about
parks. um parks is um overfilled if to say which is a great thing. Uh as you go by Carlo Park which I know at least two of us maybe three of
us go by every day uh it's standing room only. It's it's really incredible the amount of people participating. I will talk and talk to each one of you and figure out because we tend to see that
most of the people that are using the park uh especially the pickle ball are uh not from the city. They're from outside the city and they're playing with a lot of people playing like
tournaments and stuff among themselves. So we are curtailing. I spoke to the parks director. We are working. We have analyzed it. We has tried to deal with it. Uh it's all good but at the same time it becomes a little hectic when
there's that many people on the courts. So, we are setting new rules and we'll be using the app and probably coming up with some courts that will be for free and some courts that will be paid. And
that way, whoever wants to play, there's always just one losses, you put your racket, it's the racket system, and you're next in line. And that happens in many other parks. You want to have a court to play four for an hour, you will pay for that court on the other courts.
So, we've come out with this and this actually helps the maintenance and having somebody there to make sure everything runs efficient and that's what the process moving forward. But I'll let you know the details once I work it out with the park director, Mario, uh, with it and so on so we could
get the exact amount that we're doing a look as to what's being charged other places to make sure that we're fair and we're trying to do the the the best thing we can. There's u many other things that are going on but in the interest of time um right now I should
have written everything but I didn't. So unless you guys have something to ask I think that's pretty much it. Oh I'm looking at you because I'm not going to make sure that I don't go wrong on this. But tomorrow hopefully
the scoreboard will have power. >> Okay. All right. So the scoreboard should have power tomorrow. We've gone through a lot to get all this done. We had to reroute power. We had to get new generators. We had to do everything. But I think this hard work is going to pay
off tremendously for all of us, our families, our children that go to the parks. Uh the the present, which is the children, and especially the future of Sweetwater, which is those same children going through the park. Some of us grew
up in the Sweetwater Park and it is important for them to have the same ability to play year- round sports and so on. So, this is what we're working hard to do. Yeah, there's certain people that want to play some
softball there, but we'll get to that later. >> I got flat top. >> But, uh, all these things that we're doing, uh, I think is is good. And um I think that's about it for now. If you have any questions
>> to the chair, mayor, >> Mr. Salas, >> the um from Zeli Park, you have an idea when are we going to open that up? >> This is why I was trying to say that we want to make sure that everything lights up, everything's done because the first thing I want to do is safety. I thought
we would have it before this meeting, but I am not going to jeopardize anything that could go wrong until we're open. For instance, >> we're close. We're close. >> Huh? >> We're close. We're close. >> We're this close.
We're this close. We had a little incident with one of the workers on one of the courts that delayed us about three weeks. And if not, we we probably would have it. But I I want the safety to come first and everything done properly. So when we do throw the switch
and open it, we we're really proud of it. But uh we want to make sure everything's by the book and safety first. >> Okay. >> But we're very close. I don't want to tell you a date because then you're going to look at me and tell me why isn't it open? You know, >> that's fine. I just wanted to
>> but hopefully we'll get it open. >> Thank you. >> Any other commissioners? Thank you, Mr. Mayor. I'm going to switch things up uh respectfully. uh seeking the approval of the
consents of the commission instead of um reports in item B. I'd like to hear the city attorney's report. Does anybody have any objections to that? >> Good. Excellent. So, I'm going to switch item B to item D and vice versa. Mr. City attorney report.
>> Yes, sir. the the principal issue that's happened this month, which actually uh caught me a bit by surprise because so much time has passed. I didn't think there was actually going to amount to anything, is that uh former mayor Lando Lopez has sent each of you a letter advising of his intent to file suit. The
lawsuit concerns the payout for his pension benefits. Um, the lawsuit, I don't know how it's going to be phrased, but the lawsuit really will likely be a question of legal interpretation as to what the code means, what the words of the code
actually mean. Uh, however, um, I although I have not spoken to Mayor Lopez in at least a year, maybe probably longer actually, um, since I was his chief of staff, I believed, oh, it would be a wise idea for me to recuse myself
in this matter. and to um the import of that is that uh as most of these matters get handled by outside counsel anyway, insurance, defense council or otherwise um there is an ordinance which requires that I
supervise all outside counsel and I think in this point in this case specifically it would probably be a wise idea to u to relieve me of that uh responsibility and to and to place responsibility on the mayor to uh to
supervise the outside council on this case. I just I I do so not because I think there is actual any actual conflict because as I said I have not spoken to him in well over a year. Um but simply to avoid the appearance of an impropriety.
>> Thank you Mr. Attorney. I believe um I will hardly agree with you. I do believe u it may be a conflict and in the words of our former city attorney in an abundance of caution abundance of caution.
>> So first I'd like to request openly that you present me with language to go ahead and strike uh the powers of the city attorney to hire outside hire and supervise outside counsel. >> I don't really have the power to hire. I
can hire through my practice and then the uh but the the payments will be through me paid to the other entity. But as to supervising outside council that that is contained in the city code. >> Good. I like language to go ahead and strike that please.
>> So you do you just simply want it withdrawn uh the ordinance withdrawn or do you want to designate someone who will replace me in that capacity? >> No. Whenever um a decision has to be made as far as outside counsel, people
have to report to the my opinion is they have to report to the commission um before and if they're to be supervised by anybody, it's to be supervised by the CEO and mayor of the city of Sweetwater. >> Okay, >> that's my opinion. Mr. Mayor, do you have a difference of opinion?
>> No, sir, I do not. >> Any commissioners have a difference of opinion on that? >> No. >> Anybody want to dialogue on that? So, um, and I know it's a reverse piece of legislation and normally nobody hears legislation priority being drawn up, but
we are in the sunshine. Um, I appreciate your cander and I appreciate you basically recusing yourself from that. U, I just want to make sure because the way that I read the letter, it is a it's not even a demand letter. It's an intent letter.
>> It's an intent letter. It's an intent letter. >> Um, It's a 768 letter. >> It's something coming down the pike and it's a Orlando Lopez special. It's going to be Maveli infused and >> whatever. So, uh, if you could draw that up, draw that language up, please. Um,
that way we can, uh, we can discuss it. >> I'll draw that language up. I do want you to understand that my supervision of outside counsel includes at this stage, and I'm happy to give up that responsibility because it is actually extra work for me. uh but it includes
almost certainly weekly supervision of insurance defense council and their actions and coordinating their events with uh through the city. So we can discuss this offline tomorrow if you like. >> Yeah. The the issue that I have and I don't have a problem with you being involved. My issue is and maybe I maybe
I read it wrong or I interpreted it wrong but it it basically means you have autonomy to do whatever and without reporting to the commission. Is that accurate? >> Let me let me pull the ordinance. So, if I'm wrong and by ordinance, you
have to report to the commission, then you know, we're heading in the right direction. But I definitely have an issue if they're if we're eliminating the commission, the mayor's office from that decision. >> Just give me a moment, Tulis. Now, in your defense, now that you need one, I
know you were on vacation >> when we received that intent letter >> duty to supervise special counsel. Okay. So, a special counsel is defined as any attorney or group of attorneys or other other than city uh attorney hired or
retained on behalf of the city purposes of of rendering legal advice, including but not limited to forfeite council, insurance, defense council, bond counsel, and so forth. In addition, the duty is specifically imposed under this section. The city attorney shall supervise and direct all special
counsel. It doesn't say that I appoint them just as I supervise and direct them. I understand but the I I do have an issue with supervisor direct >> and all special counsel shall be retained under the direction supervision of and shall answer and cooperate with the city attorney. Uh this section does
not apply to any attorney hired or retained by the city to serve in code enforcement or quazi judicial capacity. Uh I am more than happy to give up this authority. Uh this is not something that I asked for and it was simply imposed on me at some point. Um, but I'm more than
happy to to um uh to repeal the entire ordinance. That's if that's what your wishes are. >> All right. So, let's uh let's discuss further. Mr. Mayor, I think you and I need to conference on this. >> Um, I most certainly I most certainly, if I can just finish, I most certainly
>> um think we need to hire counsel on this case immediately. Um, I've had conversations with you. I know that you're being proactive in that. I I look forward to seeing something immediate um where we can go ahead and if need be,
even though this is a letter of intent, I think it still needs to be answered. Uh I don't any kind of demand letter or letter of intent, I I don't think it should ever go unanswered. So I definitely want to have outside counsel. I know there's different vehicles that we can use. Um
>> what are your thoughts on this, sir? >> Thank you, Mr. President. And first of all, uh thank you, Mr. Ventura for stepping up and avoiding a possibility. >> Yes sir. >> Okay. And that's appreciated >> and thank you for understanding my position. >> Yes. So at this time I think it's it's
very important that we move at least to when there's an intent or when there's whatever there's a possibility of something taking place. Therefore I agree with you. I have asked uh Mr. yesterday and
his law firm to come forth and I think there's two of them there that um they be uh put in as special counsel on this matter and I have talked to them uh because I did not want to disturb our
our current attorney because he was on vacation like you said before but I I asked because I wanted to understand what was the way this was presented and uh I asked them since they already represented us twice. You gave me the
authority to hire them uh prior for the issue with the uh building situation and what's going to be coming our way. So, at that point, I had a brief conversation and I asked them to please if it was import
uh directly and they said absolutely. And another thing is that we have an insurance company that represents us. Now at that point I could contact the insurance company and make sure that uh we tell them that we would like them
since they already know Sweetwater. They already been involved with Sweetwater if they could be the lead in this or work with the insurance company attorney too. But I definitely would like them involved and I would like to be uh briefed and I think it's important that
as you said um we get information because this commission has to make decisions and I I will always like I've done since day one inform you but it's a lot better coming that they contact me and I contact each and every one of you
individually and bring you up to date as to when is coming what's coming up or what's going to be done. So, I don't know if that answered your question, but I think it's the best thing to do at this time is bringing them on um and
moving forward and in dealing with this. >> So, thank you, Mr. Mayor. Uh Mr. Attorney, >> sir, correct me if I'm wrong, but we need to go ahead and have some sort of legisl legislation
uh approving said council. Correct. You can we you can do it by motion. You don't necessarily need >> without legislation. >> Without a resolution. You can do it by motion. >> Okay. Can I have uh the name of your law firm, please? >> Just have him come and give a brief.
>> Yes, sir. >> Caesar and the law firm is Gastessi Lopez Mestre and Kobea. With me today is Mr. >> Sorry, >> Gastessi. >> Uhhuh. Lopez
Mestre and Kobaya. >> Thank you. Good. So, uh I motion to have before I say this, what are you guys charging an hour? >> We normally have a reduced rate. Uh
we'll have we have already sent over a proposal. I believe it's uh different rates for different attorneys, but the highest rate I think is close to 300 an hour. >> That's very cheap. Thank you. Uh thank you, Mr. Master. >> My partner tells me it's 350 that I'm mistaken.
>> That's that's so that's the that's the bean counter. I got it. >> All right. So, my motion is to have uh please tell me if I pronounce this correctly. Gastesse Lopez, Maestra, and Kuba. Uh, >> close enough
>> represent us in this legal matter versus for Marilander Lopez. Is that legally sufficient, Mr. Attorney? >> Yes, sir. >> That is my motion. Do we have a second? >> Second. >> Oh, before you move and um for all communications to come through.
>> Well, yes. for all comm all all communications to go through the mayor's office because that would be recused and obviously the ordinance would take two readings to pass. So until then it's on the books. So yes. So the >> could you wave the rules for right now? >> Yeah,
>> I think you need to wave the rules on the other ordinances since it's not been taken out yet. >> So Mr. Attorney um tell me if if legally sufficient I can do this uh motion to wave the rules uh pertaining to these legal proceedings. Legally sufficient? Yes, sir.
>> All right. That is my motion. I have a second. >> Second. >> Seconded by commissioner byio. All in favor? I. >> Any opposed? >> All right. Consider them waved. >> Now, you could go ahead and >> now I just want to make sure um that you're going to be reporting to our
mayor and then the mayor will go ahead and inform us of any issues. He'll do it individually or if he needs to come to a proceeding. So that is my motion on hiring uh Gastessi Lopez Mestre and Coya. I hope I said that correctly.
Motion by Commissioner Yano, seconded by Commissioner Rald Alder. All in favor? >> I any opposed? >> Thank you very much. >> So say you. >> We're honored to uh be part of the Sweetwater family. Thank you. >> Thank you, sir. Uh thank you, Mr. Mayor. Uh commissioner's report. Any
commissioner have a report? >> Before I do that, Mr. Attorney, thank you for your honesty. Yes, sir. >> Commissioner's report. Any commissioners have a report? >> No. >> I know we have a pizza party coming up at the summer camp that Commissioner
Yano has been doing for many years. If you want to participate, we're going to be collecting money. If not, you're not allowed in the building. >> Participate for the pizza. >> If you want to participate, >> bring the money. >> You want to participate? Show us the cheddar. >> Show me.
>> Sir, you forgot ice cream also. >> Yeah. This year we're going to add ice cream. >> All right. All right. Uh, no commissioners report. Thank you, Mr. Yananiel. City clerk's report attached. Police report is attached. Building and
zoning report attached. Code compliance report attached along with the employee of the month. Public works uh department report attached. Alan's hiding back there. We're holding Mr. Mayor.
We have something that was brought to us. >> Show your microphone. >> Okay. Still sound the same to me. Thank you. We have um a uh motorcycle that was brought up that what would I believe
that was given to the police department uh to go ahead and test. is the new electric bike that could uh be used within the police department. Uh this is something that we need to accept and
we're going to go over I just got this. I don't know all the particulars, but it's to accept uh this motorcycle trial period. I'll make sure it's legally I'll give it to our attorney to review and be able to test it in the police department
for them. Is that correct, Deputy Chief? >> Yes, sir. That is correct. Again, Noel Gil, Deputy Chief of Police. Uh, that is correct, sir. Um, it it is something that they want us to try out to see how we like it. You know, there are some benefits to perhaps trying out some new
technology uh and see how it works out for the police department. So, the company is called uh Rivid Motorcycles. are trying to break into the uh local and u county and state police
departments. They're currently do have them employed with the Department of Defense Police Department in different bases. Uh but there are some benefits that we'd like to test out to see if maybe this is an option in the future. >> I think this is the one. Take a look at
it. But this is the one that I've seen is on the other side, Commissioner. >> Yeah. No, I'm just Okay. I'm in treasure. >> Yeah. This is not the lining, right? >> No, this is No, no, no. This is uh this is actually called the Anthem. >> Uh which they have. Uh it is a rather
lightweight bike for a uh for an electric bike. It comes in at right at about 300 lb. So, obviously, it does give us some uh significant amount of maneuverability. Uh so, it's something that we want to exploit, especially when you're dealing in tight confinements uh
such as parking lots and things of that nature. because I was actually reading I'm sorry Mr. I was actually reading about the new model of electric bike >> called the lightning and it's actually really really fast. 360 m per hour. >> Well, this one only goes really
>> this one on the top end uh goes at about 83. >> So this one goes about 83 miles an hour. So it's not it's not that right. So uh this is to basically like I said before you know utilize for special types of assignment and things like that. uh it's
not really to replace the uh traditional gas powered motorcycles because it only gives us about 70 miles to a charge. So obviously, as you can imagine, it's going to be rather difficult for police officers to take them uh to and from
their house and use them uh in service. So it's for special potential special operations. I and I think that uh this type of bike is now going to be used by certain department for especially when they have to do certain surveillances and quietly move around certain areas.
Uh and and that's basically the premier situation for them. Correct. Some of the areas where there's very big shopping centers and so on. Uh they're able to move around fast and quietly and they're lightweight. But I want to have the ability to make sure that everything's
correct with the with the financing and everything else that it brings into it that we're responsible for. And with that, I would like to have the the ability if I feel it's good and we could use it to move forward on it from you
guys. If not, uh I will let you know if I find something that was not correct on it >> to the chair. >> Yes, sir. >> Is this going to be one? So th this is going actually going to be two. They they plan on delivering four of them uh
which are going to uh flex to another location uh nearby, but there's going to be uh two of them that will be coming to us. Uh one that will be completely equipped with lights and sirens so that we can also see what that kind of looks like and the and the utilization of it.
So, uh, we plan on, you know, our motormen plan on taking it on the track to see how it it behaves on the track as well and then drive it through, you know, tight locations and things that you need perhaps some a little bit more maneuverability than the average police
motorcycle which is nearly at 1,000 pounds. >> Do we um are we do we have to do any type of maintenance that we the city has to pay for? >> No. So that's part of the beauty of this is is you know an electric motorcycle requires very little maintenance of
which for the test phase we are not responsible for anything right we're obviously responsible for uh potential liability for our negligence which is written there uh the uh um I did uh give it to our attorney to to preview it. He
made some changes to ensure that you know the best uh interest of the city is viewed and the company agreed with them. So uh it it's actually free completely free of cost to us for this trial phase. >> What's what's the cost of that
motorcycle? So, the cost of the motorcycles uh for the police package is around $11,000, which is consider it's about a third of uh of what the motor the regular motorcycles cost us. >> 11,000 with all the bells and whistle.
>> Uh yes, that's what they're that's what the company is claiming right now. Somewhere at about 11,000. They're not totally 100% sure of the price. So I I I will say that the Anthem for com for regular commercial purchase is somewhere in the neighborhoods of about 7,500.
>> How long we going to be using it? Uh how much how long is going to be this pipe? >> So right now uh I believe we're looking at a 30-day, but they're uh actually willing to extend this as as far as we need. Uh you know, we've already spoken to them about Operation Safe Holidays
and you know, what a great benefit that would be to us. And so far the company seems amanable to uh allowing us to to utilize it for to test it there as well. >> And the final question, do we have we're not going to have a contract with this? No, this is just monthto month. >> There is.
>> So so that contract is for the the test phase for all intents and purposes, right? Again, uh no cost to the city. It just talks about liability from both ends, right? their liability as far as any manufacturer um potential uh errors or something that
could cause a problem. Uh and our liability from you know potential negligence of of how we operate the motorcycle. Now this this motorcycle any any officer any motorcycle officer can ride on it or this is just a special >> so the company claims obviously within
the law I would have to um you know state law actually speaks about cc's which pertains to gas powered right >> so I don't know how the law is going to eventually look at these motorcycles uh that are that are electric but currently
to the best of my knowledge it it deals in in 50 cc's or greater that you need the license. One of the things that they claim is that anybody can ride it because unlike uh regular gasoline powered motorcycles, these motorcycles actually give you the ability to um to
maneuver the seats up and down, which pretty much allows for almost any rider to ride it. So, >> thank you. >> So, this is why I asked you because I want to review it. I saw it just now. So, you had a chance to review it for legal sufficiency. >> Yes, sir. I'd like to make two points.
Number one, since uh chief, am I correct in uh in understanding that there is no initial cost to the city at this point? >> There is no initial cost for the test phase. >> So then as there is no initial cost, this really isn't a procurement under
the ordinance. So, there's a lot more uh administrative authority uh under this arrangement because simply there really isn't any and there are no pennies and dimes that the city have the city commission has to count. >> I I just want to make sure we're not tied into anything or long terms or
anything or any other >> I I want to review it myself. >> Yeah. >> So, that's why I'm asking them for that ability and that permission to move forward. And then the other thing is I remove I reviewed the the contract that was provided to me by Commissioner Gil, excuse me, by Chief Gil. And I uh I made
some rather significant modifications to it. Um and Chief Gil informed me that they accepted all the modifications I made. And the modifications obviously are to the city's benefit. For example, the contract is construed under Florida law,
not California law. the uh venue for any lawsuit will be here in Date County, not in Fresno where I think they're located and several other things as well, but it's they accepted everything. >> I have a I have a a question, Ralph. >> Sir,
>> I'm looking at the insurance liab liability in section B. It says customer certifies they have current motor vehicle liability insurance with at least the following coverages. body injury, 15,000 per person, 30,000 per accident, and 5,000 uh for per for per
property damage. Obviously, we have an umbrella policy, and it surpasses that. Correct. >> Yes, sir. >> Good. Uh what I do have an issue with, you actually touched upon it, is section C where it says competent uh complete agreement and acknowledgement where it
talks about the venue, but I would like to request a bench trial rather than a jury trial. Would you agree? because it comes to that. >> Yeah. Let me see what it says. >> Customer agrees. This agreement contains the complete final exclusive integrated
agreement between the parties with respect to its subject matter. This agreement supersedes all the prior That's not it. Hold on a second. Here it is. Item A uh CA. This agreement and any and all disputes relating to this agreement, customers use of
motorcycle or customers possession of motorcycle as defined above is governed by the laws of the state of Florida. The parties agree that the venue for any civil action brought under or enforced this agreement shall lie exclusively in the state of Florida state and federal
courts located in Miami date county. I would just add bench trial and unfortunately in my experience you want to go bench trial. It's up to you. I mean you're you >> No, no. I think that's a that's a that's a smart idea >> if you think it's valid. Uh the other
issue that I found is item F ondemnification. We are agreeing to indemnify Rivet but Rivet is not agreeing to indemnify us. Did you catch that? >> What paragraph you looking at? >> Uh let's see. F of section B.
>> F. Yeah. >> Yes. But they so the indemnification really applies to third parties. So this is this is a case where there's a negligent our negligent use of the u of the motorcycle. There's a crash involved and a third party is injured. uh they
are however responsible for all negligence that's directly a result of their manufacturing or design defects. So it comes out as a wash at that point. If you want, I can put in some more specific language, but I think it comes out as a wash. >> No, if you're comfortable with it, I just cut it. And on in my contracts, I
have uh mirroring indemnifications. But if you don't have an issue with it, hey, I think it's an interesting idea. Why not? Um, anybody else have anything to add on this? If not, >> anybody have a motion? >> I motion this item.
>> Second. >> Okay. Commissioner Seli is motioning the item. Commission Commissioner a second. All in favor? >> Any opposed? >> All right. Congratulations. >> Again, I will look at it and I'll if I believe it's uh copetic. I wasn't sure
if he had reviewed everything which is the attorney >> and those questions you had plus some of the other ones I just looked over. I'll go ahead and move on as fast as possible. I just want to make sure we discuss it. >> Thank you, Mr. Mayor. Thank you, Chief. >> And again, on behalf of the chief of
police and all of us, we really appreciate all your support. Thank you. >> And I I've made I've already made the change, so I'm going to email it right now to uh to Chief Gil. >> Great. Item I, finance report. attached.
Item J, community and elderly service report. >> Continue kicking ass. Attached. Item K, parks and recreation report attached. Keep up the good work, Sandra.
Unfinished business. I had to turn the page. You just says good to the order. New business. Go to the order. Ajournment. All in favor? I. >> Any opposed? >> Have a good night, folks. >> Thank you, everybody.
