Denise Menino for 70 Cypress Street, Tarpon Springs. And I learned something at the last meeting that I wasn't aware of. I knew that our sustainability program
manager had been participating in floodplain management training, and I didn't realize that she had already gotten her certification in November. But I learned through the last
meeting, and I just wanted to congratulate her because it's just one more step to making our city more sustainable through resiliency and
understanding all the factors of floodplain management. And congratulations. Thank you. Congratulations. Congrats. Well,
thank you both for being here.
And and. Hold on. She's on her
way. Well that's okay, you know, let me see if this is going to work. Okay. So let me come up
and do that. So. Let me ask you all in on the agenda. I would like to do the annual report first, just to get that over
with and get your feedback. Okay. And maybe our other member will arrive, but I can
always show it to her. And. I know that you have written a report, Loretta, that we would like to go over, but I would
like quickly to maybe not to go over Doctor Scully's proposal first so we can spend time going over yours, because none
of us have really seen what you did. But it looks really impressive. Great. Okay, so let
me. Okay, so this is the tentative report. Some of it we haven't agreed to speak on your microphone. I'm just going to blurt it out. All right. It's
okay. It's not going to be heard by the public unless. Okay. So this is the tentative
report. Can you put in and some of it we have to agree to. So.
Do you have you. Okay? Okay, okay. Yes. Okay. And I just can push these things. Or you can
tell me now. I'll do it. Okay. So. I've tried to make it consistent with last year's. And I don't think you two have
seen last year's, but I'm trying to make it consistent. So it looks like we are a, a group that keeps doing things
in a similar way. So sustainability advisory committee update to the b o c
for 2025. Okay, so the up and down arrows aren't working. So
what do I. Want? Oh, these okay. Not this. Okay, so current committee members. Doctor oops.
Doctor. Carol McKay. Chair. Siobhan. Meehan. Loretta. My last name is R I q r I q. Okay, good. And how do you say it?
Loretta rhymes with spaghetti. All right. Righetti and Milena Scali, doctor Milena Scali, staff liaison. Holly Langston, sustainability coordinator. Is
that your program manager? Program manager. Okay, so I thought because I have you program manager somewhere else. So it's program change that.
Tom Kiger, Kiger, Kiger, all that. Okay. Director of public services, is that correct? Okay. Meetings are held monthly on the third Thursday of each
month, 6 to 8 p.m. Okay. What is sustainability? It is meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future
generations to meet their needs. It is providing, through our actions, the inherent health of our environment, our economy, and our social fabric in the
present and for future generations. The three pillars of sustainability social, economical, economic. All three
are crucial to sustain a community. The environment has always been important to our committee. This year we have enhanced our attention,
attention on the social and the economic. What we did in 2025. We received regular staff updates on the sustainability
plan implementation we conducted with. We connected with all departments on issues relevant to sustainability. We
had continued input into the Space Forestry Management Plan from the vision statement through the plan's completion.
Engagement, engagement with the Tarpon Springs community has been a top desire of our committee, so we instituted a few initiatives. One instead of
waiting for people to come to us, we reached out and made invitations to welcome people to our meetings. Two some of us attended the Union Academy
Neighborhood Revitalization Committee meetings and in turn, members attended our sustainability meetings. Three we had a representative from
peace for Tarp and discuss the Peace pole and. It's important to. Sustainability. She also made suggestions about how to enhance preservation within our
community for the West, Klosterman Preservation Group presented it to our committee. We shall continue our relationship with them. Five we
now have citizens regularly attending our meeting. Through the leadership of Holly Langston, our staff liaison, we
engage with the public Art Committee to institute a storm drain mural program. And maybe we want to put a picture in there so you could send me one.
I will. A major initiative has been our partnership with the Leepa-rattner Museum of Art. We are coordinating and hosting presentations and panels that
address important and timely sustainability issues. Living with Coyotes, featuring Rhonda Latour, senior wildlife
assistant biologist with Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. This. Our first presentation was on
November 20th, 2025. Future presentations. Sustainability. Sustainable communities, sustainable minds a community
centered approach to mental health. In May 2026. Why preservation September 2026. Recycling and native
landscaping slash Tree Workshop November 2026. Code-a. The members of our committee are highly qualified in many aspects of sustainability, and
we are committed to action. We request that the Board of Commissioners view us as a resource and engage us in meaningful ways to advance social, environmental and
economic sustainability in our beloved Tarpon Springs. Thank you. Okay, so. I'm going to sit
down. Sure. The only thing I would say is on the dates for the presentations or just on that page, maybe proposed presentations, just since none
of that is. Finalized. That would be my only suggestion. You know, presentations we're working on, you know, finalizing details on or
something, maybe we can agree on it before the presentation. I just don't know that we can schedule through November before this b o c presentation,
that's all. I'm just wanting to just have that flexibility that just says their proposed. There are things that the committee is working on working towards. You know, just to clarify,
they're not set. Okay. So one of the issues is that. In our partnership with the museum,
the museum schedule we have to work with as well. And the reason that these dates were chosen is because, well, one,
that they could do it then, but also that they have shows up that fit with what these topics are that we wanted. So Christine, the director is
really excited about that. So the one in May, which is Mental Health Month, they have a big exhibition with creative clay,
which is a big not for profit that works with people with disabilities and other people, so that this would work
perfectly with that. And then in September, actually, I think it opens at the end of August, is a show that is there's three
artists from New York and one who lives in Saint Pete, Rhinegold. And it's a lot about trees and the environment. So
this all fits with that. And Christine, the, the idea about doing a workshop about recycling and native
landscaping and trees, she's very excited about doing a workshop. And she thinks that the artists will want to participate as well. And of
course, the students. So she's really excited and I'm excited about that partnership because it brings in a whole group of
people from the community and also brings in a lot of young people through the college. So, so, but anyway, so that's my
spiel. So what do you think about the presentation and about the let's talk about the presentation first and then
about the. The topics. And then we can talk about Doctor Scully's proposal. Okay. You're
up your presentation, I thought looked wonderful. Okay. Yeah, I think it's ready to be
presented. Well, I need to correct Holly's. Her title and
there was a few spaces I had different. The eco fest was included on their. That was
that sustainability. That was before I came in, so I. I can't remember if that was something that sustainability was leading. So sustainability, we don't
lead eco fest because traditionally it's put on actually by the recreation department because we combined it with the back to school splash day to just be able to
kind of capture that audience. But we always, yes, participate and kind of, you know, make sure that all the sustainability adjacent vendors, you know, are there and things like that. So we partnered. Yes.
Yeah, we kind of and I always, you know, but our volunteer coordinator with recreation, Ashley, she's really, she's just got that event down pat. So she doesn't ask too much of
me, which is really amazing, but it is. So it's not an official sustainability like run event, but it is. Would it be helpful? Do you think it would be appropriate to include it that we continue our. Oh,
absolutely. Yeah. I mean, I think participating in city events is, you know, always like we could you write that and send it to me so I have the
correct verbiage. Sure. To introduce. Okay. I do just want to point out that that event, the eco fest, it predates the creation of the sustainability program as a whole. So it's, it's long running and kind of a,
it's a little bit of a legacy thing at this point, but it shows we're like on the forefront for the, for that, you know, prior to even creating this program, it's a good event. And just yeah,
under, I mean, sorry, under outreach, maybe you could, we could add eco fest touch and then Earth Day at the library just so those show that we're, you know, through staff, but
also committee, you know, if he will list those, I should include that. That's a very good observation, Milena. Other than that, I thought it was great. I like that there was, I
was going to say include a picture of the coyotes, but then you had it on the next slide. So I think having not not included having lots of pictures, you know, I was going
to put the stuffed one in, but I figured, oh, I better not. Zeus, we will not forget. No, I
won't forget that coyote. So when will we present this? That I will have to ask the. I will have to. I will have to ask
when which meeting? They would prefer it to go on to the agenda. So can you tell me what options? I don't know the options, to be honest. Here's
the reason. Because the first meeting in April is dedicated to bringing in the new commissioner. So the second meeting in April is likely to be quite heavy, since the first meeting won't have a lot of
business. So I'm just saying I can't commit until I touch base about how full the one is. The first meeting that's going to
be April. What, four, seven? No, it's the let me pull it up. For ten. I believe it's the 14th.
Okay. And then the next one is the 28th. I will tell you in just a moment. I do not want to tell you the wrong. You've got it, Tommy. The second meeting
in April is the 28th. So that one's probably going to be like Holly saying, we've been working with the city manager to schedule out the different agenda items that are going to be coming for the next six
weeks, or maybe it will be May then may be I would anticipate it might be the first meeting in May. So just keep that in
mind. So everybody keep that Tuesday, May 12th in mind because I mean, I know I need to know in advance because I
get very busy. I can, we'll find out. I can ask next week. Yeah. They'll be scheduling out that meeting okay pretty soon. So because I don't want to be going away, I don't want to.
And I would really like all of you to be there. And as I said, Denise, if you want to stand up
with us, you're welcome. I can make sure I know how to pronounce all your names. Okay.
We're sketches. Rhymes with spaghetti, rickety, rickety, c
k. I. Did you want Loretta to go first or. No? You want me to go first? Okay. All right. Okay,
so now we are going to talk about. Do you have this proposal? I'm going to pull it
up on the. Oh, this one not your proposal. Proposal? No, no, I don't think so. That's okay. I'll just look it up here. Okay.
And you want to walk us through this? Yeah. I'm not going to read it verbatim, but just basically continuation of our conversation last month, I was able to meet with Robin Sanger
and one of my colleagues, and we had a very nice conversation about, you know, what piece for tarpon is doing and, and then expanded it into some of the
topics in the proposal, sort of in preparation for a potential panel. Now, I included in the talk discussions of trauma
informed care, which is very much, you know, Robin's wheelhouse there. And trauma informed care is absolutely linked to community sustainability. If we can heal
our current people, then we lead to healthier future generations. So and, and their organization just does so much. So there's a lot to be gleaned
there. And then the, the blue zone principles, which you mentioned last time, that the mayor is very interested in those. And the great thing. So
I'm not sure if you all have heard of the blue zone principle, that that image that I had is the blue zone image,
right? So actually. The one, one of the designated blue zones is in Greece. So it's a nice little Italian Tarpon Springs, but it basically talks
about what kinds of green flags you would see in a community that leads to longer life, higher quality of life, greater
mental health. And, you know, just overall physical health of, of the, the members of that community. And so I thought that, you know, in mental health month with trauma
informed care, we could also be talking about, you know, those principles. And then I did as part of like an extra thing that could be included in a presentation sort of map those
principles over Tarpon Springs currently, and to, to demonstrate all the things that we're doing as a community that are contributing to a sort of a
blue zone identifier. And so that I thought could be really helpful to sort of look at, hey, this is what's in existence right now, what we're doing that, you know, the people in
attendance could see like, okay, there's, we have outreach. We have smaller sub communities. We have, you know, lots of green spaces, etcetera. So then
I also included, and this could be taken out for time information on the emergency or emerging research with green psychology, which, you know,
being more environmentally based. So that could also be included. But again, time permitting, and depending on the the panelists that can
attend, I did mention it to Robyn. She seemed excited about it, but obviously scheduling permitting, my colleague would be interested. She's a psychologist. We work with
underserved populations, definitely working with individuals who have disabilities, have chronic trauma. So, you know, she would
have and we both participated in community psychology initiatives when we were in graduate school together. And
then I was considering reaching out to a mutual friend who. Does a lot of work with sustainable design. So
potentially if I could make that work, that could be an additional interesting perspective. There would you would be the moderator of it?
Yeah. So it would be good to get the list of people. And I mentioned in this that, you know, the Demits have that
group. I believe you mentioned that last time and that they for Lawrence, it's called, I think, and, and they are connected with tons of mental
health groups because they get money out all the time. And when they do have these events, I mean, hundreds and hundreds of people come to them from all
over so we could reach out to them. But this is up to you to figure out who you think will be the best people. And is
there anyone around who's a blue zone authority? Not locally? No, actually, in my conversation with Robin, sort
of the there's some not controversy, but controversy about blue zones. But just in terms of like, how accurate is it, you know, some of the areas
the statistics might not have been accurately reported, but I'm not here trying to start a research study. I'm just I think the principles are still valid. And we can see that like
we can see the results of that. So it, it wouldn't necessarily be going deep into the weeds with it. But I do love the idea that there are certain communities that are more
predisposed to longevity than others. So I remember when the mayor talked about this at peace for Tarpon, he indicated
that he was communicating with someone at Advent Hospital to. Oh, and I wonder if that person. I don't know who it was, I'm
not sure might be interested in that in terms of. But I don't remember who it was. Yeah, yeah, I, I mean, I, I imagine that if
we are kind of limited on the date that I'm going to probably have to reach out to a few different people and see who's available. Right? That could,
could speak. And you mentioned last month to like kind of keeping it limited to, you know, 2 to 3 panelists. And I think three would be you want some
diversity and you want name recognition. So, so that's why I'm thinking someone from advent, because then advent could couple sizes. I mean,
that becomes an issue. You know, how do we want to get people? Because that's our whole point is to engage and communicate. I just think you've done a
wonderful job. And I think it's both. Works for everybody and it works for tarpon. And so
that's a nice blend. If I could just say, I think it's so much, so much time and energy went into making this. It's
excellent. It would just be a fabulous, you know, thing to pull together. I do just want to ask and make the point that being that this is a volunteer, you know, committee doing these
types of this type of lift outside of the committee hours. I just want to make a point that it is, you know, if anyone doesn't have the capacity to do that, I just don't want them to feel obligated. I'm happy from
a staff perspective to obviously help in with scheduling with, you know, anything that we need to just because people do have, you know, jobs and other lives and things. And coming to meetings is, is certainly something that
they're committed to. But, you know, this is a different level of ask for people to do in their personal time. So however that checks out, whatever you
know, you need help with, you know, and if it becomes something that's not sustainable or attainable, we just, we just need to be honest about that as well. So I think
everybody is willing to give back to our community and everyone's here. I know everyone, they aren't afraid to see him do it. Well, they might
be. I mean, I do think it I think we need to be honest about the fact that we need to give people a chance to share what they're, you know, if there are any limitations. That is all I'm saying. And not make
that assumption that, you know, people have 10 hours or 12 hours of what it took quite a bit of coordination just to do the coyotes. I mean, I'm going to be, you know, and that, but
that was, you know, part of my job and I don't mind doing that. And it was I don't mind doing. I've done so many of these things that I. And because I have a good relationship with Christine, things go can go
pretty quickly. But, but I just think this is wonderful. And I think that it has versatility too. So, so I will back up and
ask a question about logistics. Holly. But I think it's got a lot of versatility that if it couldn't be a presentation, like it could also be utilized to in, in another capacity.
There's a lot, there's a lot of information here even to try to squeeze into, you know, an hour. But the thing is, is that it's good to keep it somewhat
limited. And then, and then there can always be part two or whatever as, as things go on. And it can be in other capacities. I mean, you can do
it professionally at some conference or whatever, because the, the thing I, for me about
sustainability is environment super important, but these other issues are important for sustaining a community. And the
mental health aspect certainly is. And I mean, we've seen that through peace for tarpon that how important it is. Do we think that this would be
essentially like a part two for the peace for tarpon presentation, or does it feel like it is something that's separate? Because if we are
promoting, we're talking about trauma informed and promoting community resilience, like, is this just going to be seen as an extension of peace for tarpon? I don't see it that way
at all. Okay. Logistically. Holly. Yes. Would I be the one reaching out to okay, that is what we that I guess that's one of the points that I was making
is that, you know, I did the sort of logistics of getting our Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission biologists on board because I, you know, was able to get that
contact through the extension service through IFAs. And so if you have contacts that you, you know, need help with or if.
That is, it's a great question. Yes, because it can involve obviously quite a bit of coordination. Yeah. Coordination back and forth just on who's available. I think maybe the key is
identifying within this proposal within the panel structure, maybe what the highlight like, which, what your priorities maybe are and try to schedule with those
first. And then if a priority participant, you know, wasn't available, perhaps then you could bring in, you know, an alternate or just use two if you had two that were like strong and ready. And that
might be, you know, substantial enough. So I think just keeping it super simple, identifying maybe as a, as a committee, what your priority things within this are because it is so rich and it would be, like
you said, probably pretty challenging to cover all of this in one outing. But, you know, I think just kind of picking the, the tip top priorities and then who could
be the person for that? See if you can get that, you know, dialed in. And I can obviously, like I said, happy to help have a conversation with anyone or
so my experience having, I mean, I did this professionally set up all sorts of things is that if you're going to be the moderator who's going to ask
questions, it's important for you to contact the people and talk to them. I, when I did this, I always met with the people ahead of time and talked
to them so they knew what sort of idea of how the conversation was going to go, and you knew what they had to say, because you don't want to go up there
and not have some relationship with the people you're talking to, and that you're all on the same page, so that when you start asking and having a
conversation, you can sort of follow each other. And it's important to have that relationship with those people.
So. That and then what I've always found is that sometimes, as Holly mentioned, you ask somebody and they can't do it, but then they say, but you know,
this person could be good and usually end up with the perfect group of people. So I'm just wondering, Doctor Scully, if you did envision this as like a
panel, if you I mean, I, I guess I'm hearing different things being sort of merged together. So I'm hearing the option of people could come in and give presentations. Like obviously with the Coyotes,
that was a professional giving a presentation. We didn't do it as the, the, you know, it wasn't a panel. There wasn't a moderator role per se. Doctor McKay did an excellent job, obviously kind of being the host. So I see that as kind of
one structure. And then obviously a panel would be something very different that would involve a lot more preparation is what I'm hearing. So I think that might be what
needs to, you know, kind of be hashed out. And again, that's, that's just a big time commitment. And, you know, different people are comfortable in different roles. So if someone doesn't want to
be the, even though they might be an expert, but they might not want to stand up in front of a room, I don't know. So I'm just making sure that we kind of cover all the bases. This is uncharted territory. So I just
want to leave no stone unturned, and I don't want anyone to feel like they got, you know, pigeonholed into something or didn't get the opportunity to do something that they wanted, you know? So I just think we
need to be very open about this and, and not, you know, presuppose anything. Those feel
like logistics for it to be a presentation versus a panel in terms of time of like trying to build the relationships as you're speaking about, again,
that there's, there's lots of directions for it, I guess. Yeah, I kind of, I need to think on like which direction, think about what you're
comfortable doing. You're the expert in this area. And if it's a presentation, then probably just one person doing a presentation. And then you're
going to have to narrow the topic. And yeah, yeah. Which it, it's, it's fragmented, you know, it's, it's able to be broken
down into digestible pieces. But I think for me, the, the topic of that you have here,
how. A community centered approach to mental health and connected with a sustainable that that sustainable community
y mental health is so crucial to it that to me and, and, and I loved how you were going to put the blue zones or whatever over tarpon, but I think that
you should figure out what you're comfortable with. Okay. Yeah, I'll think on it. And. Also with just feasible time
wise. Yeah. Okay. One thing I might offer, it's not uncommon to kind of partner with a, you know, for just managing the event, just like we had FWC kind of was the experts in, you
know, their third party. And they do this every day for the coyote presentation. You know, if. One option might be to like, reach out to existing group, like we, we're lucky, very
lucky to have peace for tarpon here. So that might be something we could reach out to Robin and see if she wanted to like handle the logistics and let them host it. And that might help to spread the, the
logistics around a little bit and maybe have her, you know. If she was open to it, you know, help coordinate the event and, and, and moderate or something
like that, just to, to spread around the logistical burden from the just the committee members. Well, I think, Milena, you should figure out what you
want and then let's see how that works. Okay. I can do that. Good. And we can have, you know.
She can come in and meet. We can hash it out if that, you know, is something that would help you just with, you know, again, making a to do list, however we need to do it, you know, to just support. I don't
want anyone to feel like they've got a, a separate, you know, side job. And I'm happy to talk to Robin about it too. I mean, I talked to her quite
frequently. So I mean, the meeting we had was very good. We, you know, exchanged contact and and will hopefully be able to pair between peace for
tarpon and even what my practice is doing. So I'll be, I'll be speaking with her. Okay.
So. Yep. Well, we're here to help. Okay. Thank you. Okay. Did you want to talk about what
your. And did you see the the. The email that got sent out about my meeting. Yes. And the
workshop I did. Yeah. Okay. So I. I thought I would just talk this instead of having a formal presentation because there's a
lot of options. And one thing that I started pursuing was who I could have as an who we could have as an expert. And I was initially thinking about Pete
Kanaris from Green Dreams Florida, and he's an expert in. Sustainable landscaping. I mean, that would be the big umbrella.
And underneath that, he's he does edibles, he's edible expert of Florida and natives and just has an amazing breadth
of knowledge. Well, I contacted him and he said that it was a little concerned about committing himself. So I need to have a meeting with him because if he doesn't want to
do it because I said, well, I could help you out, I could do the presentation for you, and all you'd have to do is show up. Because I have that ability. And I've, I've spoken to many
groups and, and I've done. Visual presentations. So that's where we left it. So I have to have a meeting with him, but I have if, if that doesn't work,
I, I'm been thinking of different things, different people that could be part of this. And, and like Milena, I could be the moderator of this
thing because I do have an expertise. Also, I thought the overall umbrella could be sustainable gardening or, or
landscaping. And underneath that is. Butterfly gardening, pollinators, natives composting.
And one thing that you put in your list was maybe it could be split into recycling and, and gardening. But I think this is such a huge, it's such a huge
subject and people are very interested in it. Maybe, just maybe just stick to the gardening part and, but maybe
there's a, just a little, a little thought about or a little bit of a topic about recycling. One thing is when you're doing a lot of gardening
and you buy a lot of plants, there's this problem of what to do with the pots. And I recently I found out that I thought I knew you could drop
things at Lowe's, and I thought that they were recycling them, but they're not. They're just dumping them. It's just a dump
spot. But so I have to investigate that further. Unfortunately, the industry is not being proactive on this.
It's a huge waste. Just and then then the tags that go in every plant has a plastic tag and you just, you know, you
multiply all that waste. It's it's huge. What plastic tag do you mean? The ID tag that they have in the plants? When you go to a big plant care that tells you full sun care. Yeah.
Landmark puts a sticker on the. They don't put. Well, that that is a much better way of dealing with it. Yeah. But the big box stores, they don't they don't
do that. So. As I said, I, I'm, I'm going to investigate this more. And people love visuals and I'm all about the visuals.
So one thought I had was. Jimmy who used to have the garden up in. Up in New Port Richey. He's
now he's, there's a younger guy who's taken over and I thought that. Well, I've gone up there and I've taken a lot of photos up there already, but maybe he's the guy who could come
because he's an integral part and he does sales at all these different locations. So he, he, he does have, he does have like
a weekly here. Yeah, yeah, CSA, CSA here. And, and that's also a way to bring people into, well, eating better is part of
it too. So you know, where, where, where can you find these CSA opportunities? The other thing is anybody can grow
anything, even if you have a little balcony, you know, you can have some cherry tomatoes and some herbs if but if you want to do it bigger, there's
ways to do that too. Siobhan. I just was going to, you know, offer kind of the, the bring it back a little bit to just another resource, which is always the extension. You know,
there are master gardeners, of course, in Tarpon Springs. I just met with actually she is Teresa. I might not be saying
her last name correctly, but she is actually an urban. She's a forester and she is very involved in teaching the Master Gardeners program. She actually
lives in Tarpon Springs. Okay, coincidentally. So she's a great resource because not only is she training sort of the master gardeners, but then she
also lives here, so she's invested. So I just wanted to offer her, you know, as a contact also because Teresa, I'm going to have to look up her last name. She would be
happy, I know to do you know any type of, you know, presentation panel, anything like that. I have a feeling she would be willing. So if you can't, you know, as you kind of go down the line, obviously if
you meet with someone, it's not going to, you know, gel. Just keep that in mind because she would be amazing. She could be right here. And that could be that could solve the problem.
So you weren't here. When. So the leepa-rattner starting in August and through is having a
show that's about trees and the environment. So that's why this is. Yeah. Having in the fall. Okay. Because and Christine
like she thought a workshop would be good. Yeah. And so she could invite students and, and all sorts of people and she's like really hot on these
preservation in this topic, right? So this would be perfect. Yeah. That's great. The other thing I've been thinking about, and I've always been an advocate to bring younger
people into it, to become a landscape designers, landscape architects. People who do food, food, forests, you know,
there's so because it's the college and there's young people there, maybe we can introduce this as a possible career path. Yeah. And they're
really interested in involving the students. So yeah, that would be yeah, partnership. Definitely. So would a workshop
be like multiple days or. No, just one day. Okay. And if you'd rather do presentation, you know, presentations. Yeah, but you could do little
presentations and then hands on, you know, you figure it out because they're open to anything I could, there could be maybe part of it, which is
more workshop that would introduce the students to career opportunities. And maybe then in the evening, there's, there's a talk and I, I have a
lot of energy I can do a day. Well, we have to find out what time's available, right? That sort of thing. So, you know,
there's a lot of opportunities and oops, instead of on it was already on. I was going to say part of that could be that if, you know, again, the extension, they do presentations all the
time about the Florida friendly principles, you know, right plant, right place. Yeah. Watering, mulching, you know, all the things that are about having a successful and sustainable garden, you know,
pest control, you know, natural, all of those things. So, you know, possibly I'll reach out to Teresa and kind of introduce you to her. Yes, Siobhan. And that way you two can connect
and she can kind of tell you what she typically does for workshops or presentations. And yeah, just see if that's an added bonus. I think it would
be. There may also be some faculty, right. The college who could also be involved. Right. I was going to say one, the Florida friendly program is
really great. They actually have a full time educational program coordinator in Melissa West. And she's she's pretty stellar. And the program manager, Doris Heisman, has done several presentations out
here in the city in the past. And she's always pretty readily available. And I just throw this out there as a idea that if we're doing some education outreach right now, it's a very
topical anything that's like water conservation related, particularly outdoor landscape. We're in a stage two water shortage order in the region. We've got a big water rainfall
deficit, and the city is actively working on trying to do some engagement and communication for for water conservation, particularly around outside. So. You know,
if you wanted to focus that on on Florida friendly as a way to, you know, help achieve water conservation, particularly in this very challenging time that that'd be stellar and very easy
to logistically organize. We aren't doing this till the fall. We're trying to space them out because we're doing them. We can't be like, oh, you're doing
so well. Hopefully we're we have the May 1st because it's mental health month. And then and then we have to decide whether it's Y preservation or
the workshop either in in September and November, spread out so that we can give give us
all time to work this through. Yeah. It's really challenging. If you don't have irrigation, keep the garden going and the
irrigation costs on a normal house are now. But a new system in is 10 to $14,000 less serious. So whenever I meet a
new client, I just hope that they have information because, you know, doing the adjustments, that's usually like $1,500, not
as big of a deal to make the adjustments, but it's really challenging. Just this is an
incredibly challenging time for landscapers with the increased gas prices, just to get to a job, we bid a job in Saint Pete,
and then we're working on it right now. And then the gas prices went way up and that it's really, really difficult. Good reason to have electric car. Well, if you have dump
trucks, you know, all that stuff. Wow. Okay, so we have some follow up. We have time to kind of circle back about the logistics on the the
landscaping, gardening, what that's going to look like. So we'll do some follow up on that post post meeting. Thank you so much, Siobhan. Thank you. Sorry.
I'm sorry I was late. I usually have an alarm. Loretta, do you want to say anything about all
this? No. I'm excited to participate and help. I will say, Loretta, I'm going to give a shout out to Loretta because she wasn't tasked or asked to
do anything specific, but she, on her own, came up with her own presentation for the sustainable Development guidelines. So whenever you guys are ready to move on, I just wanted to thank her
because that was incredible. And I just felt like you did a huge lift on that as well. So I think everybody on the committee just gets lots of kudos today. You know this is just a night you know this is
to be picked apart. And yeah well let's finish this first before we move on. Okay. Okay. So maybe Loretta, you may want to work with Siobhan. Sure.
That would be great. Your interest that I know you're very interested. We do have to be careful with that. If we're hosting an outside event for the. On behalf of the committee, they can't work together on
coordination outside the meetings. Unfortunately, the sunshine rules, usually when there's outside events, the committee will pick one, establish like one liaison to
to coordinate or work with the staff. Well, Siobhan, you're on your own. Well, we will we can do it. And I can, you know, be an intermediary and Loretta can
certainly send. Yeah, we can we can work through that. It's just not. It is true that we have to always be mindful of sunshine laws. So even emails,
you know, it's just it's just the rules. Okay. Do you want to say anything now to Siobhan? Well, through the Tarpon
Springs email system, right? You can send things to me and I can send them back to you. Yes you can. Yes, you can send it to me. Correct. I can be the intermediary. You can say, talk
to Siobhan. Okay. Well, I love all of Siobhan's ideas, and Siobhan is. I feel like in on a whole higher level than me on
on these topics. I mean, I but I, I love gardening and I believe in all of these topics and implement them in my own
garden. So I'm, I'm ready to help out in any way possible. Shoot me an email. Okay, okay, so shoot me an email. Yes, yes,
yes, yes, shoot it to Holly and then we'll all get. Okay. So
now Loretta. Yes. Do you want
to go over your.ou want to
just read it through it and then maybe we can go page by page and we can just take a moment to read through the first page. Well, how about if you can you read it to us? That would be, I think, more helpful.
Okay. I think maybe just a summary of each section and what your goals were would be a good place to kind of give us an overview of what we're working on achieving and okay,
well, basically. You know, just basically giving I, it would be nice to give developers
recognition that they, if they go through these extra steps and to build something more future. Future goal oriented, I
guess, towards the sustainability, sustainability and for the wildlife. So it says here that through this
program, the city seeks to promote energy efficiency, reduce emissions, encourage water conservation appropriate for Florida's climate support, resilient and adaptable
development, enhance long term property value and livability. And then I just thought maybe we can break it up into like goals such as bronze, silver,
gold and platinum. And wouldn't that be nice if we thought of ways that they would strive to maybe reach that next level, to
receive a plaque on their wall right at the entrance of their business? Or. If we had some sort of ribbon cutting with all
of us in attendance and maybe the, you know, the platinum, the our actual mayor will be there. And I think that would be a great way to publicize
their accomplishments and to also bring awareness to our community that we do have. You know, developments that care
about sustainability. And they want to do their part. And I think that that should be honored and publicized as much as possible. And could we're
going to go on further. Sure. Yeah. And basically, the second page is kind of talks about.
Why participating, why go through the extra steps. So it would be building value through
a, you know, a shared visit vision of a resilient and environmentally responsible Tarpon Springs. And then it would strengthen their brand
and enhance reputation for them as a forward thinking and responsible business and alignment with community values related to conservation,
resilience, and environmental stewardship. And increase visibility through city recognition and promotion. And
I also felt like, you know, I know personally, I support businesses that I feel like are making going the extra mile to do something for sustainability.
So I seek out businesses that I know care and just don't put profit first. So if someone is taking this into consideration
as they're developing their plan, I feel like their future customers or clients may, you know, they may get more people
just because they took the time to do this. And I feel like it's a win win for everyone. So
yes, I feel like if they participated in this, it would attract customers and tenants.
And. Let's see. So really it's a shared commitment between our city and them. And I try to create it so that it'd be
really simple, like not just this complicated checklist with points and just something extremely simple that they can just read and in two, three
minutes, like already get some ideas of what they can do and can't do. So I just have this three step process where they would just review a
sustainability menu, select applicable sustainability features for the project and submit selections with project plans and supporting information. And so again,
there's no point calculation. The program is straightforward, predictable, and easy to administer. So the levels are
broken down into like for example bronze, silver, gold, platinum. We could change it if we like, wherever possible. And then, you know, basically, you
know, the bronze, all they have to choose are six things on the list and they can get recognition. Where's the of the list is it's in the box.
There's a grid right there. Oh, the list is coming up. The lists are coming up. The list. Yes. We're not there yet. So basically and this can change. We can change the numbers. We
can change those incentives, we can add on to it. But I just figured, you know, let's, let's pack in the incentives. Let's
really figure out ways to encourage this. To happen. So. So basically I have a high
impact sustainability features. Okay, so. Again, we can reward this if possible, but like I felt like the most important
big things that could be in for like the platinum or in gold would be actually putting the solar panels actually doing like some sort of smart
irrigation systems that save water. That really does, you know, if they really do preserve mature trees, that
should really be prioritized for the grand. Platinum or gold. So, you know, basically just
this is all about the high impact ones that we would really emphasize as the top standard would be the solar systems, the electric vehicle
charging infrastructure, the rainwater collection system, smart irrigation systems, native landscaping that reduces irrigation demand, preservation of mature trees, landscape
design that eliminates or significantly reduces mowing fertilizers and pesticides while supporting pollinators and wildlife. I think if they
have that, that. Would be ideal. So so then if you just turn the page, basically here we go into the checklist that they would
get to check off and then they would can just read through it and think of things that they want to implement. So I mean, I
can read through them all or okay. All right. Okay, okay. So yeah, just read through them and then there's water, you
know, the section of water, urban natural habitat section, transportation materials and waste, basically the same categories that the other ones
that we saw were that that Dunedin has. But just making it in a very easy to read list kind of format. That's simple.
Very nice. And I really feel like it's important not just to just put a decorative native grass, but something for the wildlife, something for the
pollinators. So I again, you mean what counts as wildlife? Well, I mean, like, for example, putting like a mulberry bush so that the birds can eat it. Okay,
that sort of thing. I don't know, just something that or like there's some, some native hollies that are also good for the birds. I'm always thinking
of. Yes. Hollies. Yeah. Hollies, hollies. So, you know, there are thornless hollies out there that are very child friendly. Yes. And that really we have a
lot in our yard where the birds come and eat the berries. Yeah. So I'm always, you know, for me personally in my yard, I'm always purchasing something that's good for the either the butterflies, the hummingbirds
or the birds. Yeah. That's always what's on my mind when I'm out shopping for plants and flowers. So. Okay, so then we
go to website recognition. Let's recognize them as much as possible. The more they do, the more we recognize them. Hum. So
sustainability recognition window decals. This is where they would get something on their window that's catches the attention, that gives them
recognition for energy efficiency, water conservation, tree preservation, all that sustainable transportation materials and waste and resilience and innovation. Okay.
And they could, you know, not only put it in storefront windows, but they can put it in their building entrances, leasing offices, lobbies, digital versions of these recognition decals may also be
used in marketing materials, websites, and leasing information. So they can really utilize this to, to toot their own horn, right? And then the
plaque that we could provide that is, you know, first, definitely the gold and platinum, perhaps the silver,
if they request it. And the plaque would say that they are recognized by the City of Tarpon Springs and the Sustainability Advisory Committee. And the year they
received it, and then we can turn the page. Sustainability leadership ribbon cutting. So. This is where we would have an
event outside of our meeting to really applaud them for all their efforts. And, you know, we could have like a ribbon
cutting ceremony coordinated with the Sustainability Advisory Committee, potential participation by the mayor. I would also like to say there's
a great opportunity to tie in, like our economic development department as well, because we I think that could be a cool one to like bring them in
because Karen Lemons, who's our economic development director, we do. She does track like sustainable businesses and things like that. She keeps a list and, you know, she's featured them in her business
newsletter. So we could put that in like, yes, that would be newsletter, sustainability newsletter. Yes. So we could kind of add a little bit. So sorry to interrupt, but I just wanted to say that really great.
That's a great idea. Let's definitely include that. Those higher tiers. Karen Lemon okay. Karen. Don't worry. We'll,
we'll get to staff review. I think this is this is really good. Okay, great. So. Let's
see. So yes, local media and press can be there too to recognize them. Definitely on our website, any sort of
promotional channels. Okay. And then they would basically fill out a simple application form. And then they would show their,
their, what they're aiming for, what level. And then here's an example project, basically like
what they did. And that's pretty much all I have here. I just want to clarify that was like a, like a fictitious like, yes, yes, I like that. I thought it was, that's a good
way to kind of show. Thank you for doing this. This is really well, it was like I was thinking it would take us forever to just check and read each one. So and I know it was
kind of just kind of just a daunting task. So I just, well, I commend you for doing this, but I also, it's also so
helpful for the committee because it gives us something really good to work from. Great. And I think, you know, next time we should read this and go
through it. And if I want to add it or I'm sorry, go ahead or whatever, and then think about what it would take to implement this and so on and so
forth. But I commend you for this. And it does. It does fulfill your goal. I mean, it's seems doable, whereas that other thing was daunting. Yes.
This does this seems really doable. Great. That's what I wanted to create. Just something that we can work with and get it rolling. I'm really impressed. I don't I don't
think it needs a whole lot of modification. I think it's pretty comprehensive. And then just figuring out, okay, how do we get the word out? So people start submitting applications, you know, and yeah, some of
those other things we have to, you know, get the city to yeah, I understand. I mean, like I'm saying, I don't think we have to spend the rest of the year poring over ready to champion
it. Yeah. I was about to say I
do want to say the this is a
I'm tapping on here, but teady .
Like if you'd like, if we could take this back to staff and have them look at it, you know, the folks that do the plan review every day and see how this fits in the context. We could even, you know, do maybe
talk about like looking at some historic projects that have tried to do this and see how they would score out within this system or just kind of do a little dry runs with it or, or compare to code. Because we
also, you know, want to make sure that we're doing things in conformance with code. But I, I do think this is probably ready for staff, you know, comment and comment and review. And then we could, they could have
some markups and maybe send back like adjusted. Yeah. Like changes or something. Yeah. Suggested changes or like a, you know, like a formal, like sort of draft final version of what this would look like. And
then just also their perspective on what that implementation might look like, you know, through the planning department, how I might, you know, whatever, how we can kind of work on that. Great. So if
you and it's all, yeah, do that and then send it, send it to the committee so we can review it. And yeah, I think that would be what we would try to
do is have staff take a look, make comments. Yeah. Just because there might be some little logistical implementation things or oh, hey, we might want to recognize like Florida friendly, for example, as a specific call or
something like that. Or, but, you know, and then we would take it back and make this an agenda item again in the future with the staff revisions and how, how it might be
implemented. And yeah, bring back to the committee sort of as a future discussion item as well, that the committee looks
at it and approves it. And because it's something that's coming out of the committee and the committee, this was something we wanted to do. So certainly we would bring it
back for for discussion and sort of like final, we're going to take it to their end and then they'll bring it back to us. Yeah, I think that's the right way to go because there's legal ramifications. Absolutely. All that stuff. Yeah, we do
want to have legal academy. And I think because we're not this is not prescriptive. Like we're not telling people what they have to do. This is all completely optional. Absolutely. And I mean, participation is
optional as far as if they want to go for sustainable recognition, as that is what this is designed as if we were to come up with something that is more regulatory. Of course, that is, you know, but that's
all kind of for staff to talk about as far as what it would look like for implementation, implementation. I could, if, if need be, I could do the award
design. Okay. Got that. One thing I thought about too is, and I'm not sure if this is the right way to look at this, but
maybe just to three levels for simplicity. But that's a logistical thing. But that's those are things that I think
once the city goes over it, then it can come back to us and we can add our comments and fine tune it the way we would like it to, to be, because there's only two points
difference from gold too. Or we can change it. We can change all those numbers. Yeah. But just to make it, and this is a word document so that you can yeah, play around with it and
change it. Yeah, totally. So I think that'd be part of the value of having the, the plan review staff take a look would be. Yeah. Because they've got so much experience. Yes, exactly. Individual projects and things like that. They can,
I'm sure they can definitely give some great input. Yeah. Historical projects that made a big push towards sustainable development and see how they would score and see if the way
the scoring is like achieving the goals that you set up based on what people are proposing in real developments. Okay, great. And, and as has been noted,
it's really good that it's not something that's prescriptive, namely that ten people can volunteer because we do know
that we have some changes in what's allowed to be prescribed by our city. So we can't force
people to have solar in those sorts of things. Even the city can't do that. Now, with the net zero policy, that's a separate topic. I know, but who
am I? Who? That would be one thing relevant to what's what, and the way we've approached it is just terrific. Now. Okay. Do
you have does do people have any other comments on this before we move on? So thank you for taking it to the staff.
That's a really good thing. Thank you. Yes. Okay, so now we can talk about items for the
next meeting, the agenda. So we should it'd be good to briefly talk about this if people have ideas just so we keep it fresh,
because I doubt if the staff will have it back to the next meeting. They may we'll just have to see kind of what the. Yeah. And then that'll be April.
So we can look at the final annual report. Could you send that PowerPoint to Siobhan to everybody? Sure, sure, sure. So
that they I showed it and don't forget that we have the offer of the owls presentation from birds and helpinghands. Doctor Scchen. Right. Yeah. Okay.
Would do you have details, Jerry? Would you be able to. I'm not sure about the rules. Can she share? Oh, no. I'm like, is she allowed to share? It's
her. I didn't I don't know how that goes, but we'll just. Jerry. Well Jerry. Details. Yes. Go ahead. You got details. Just go ahead. That's fine. It's not
a public comment. Change the rules. Well, this is a we are a more informal committee. We're not breaking a rule by allowing you to talk about a potential presentation that you are the
connection for. I just did want to add that that I think what is calls this presentation is the owls of Philippi Park, a
local tragedy, a national issue. And he was thinking it might be and I'm I want to check with you about 45 minutes. Is that
okay for him to be able to go through what he would like to go through? Could it be better if it could be shorter? Well, I think he can do that. If he
could possibly compress it just a tiny bit just because there are other you know, I understand business items, if you will, but we do want what I would love in the future for
possibly his presentation to be something at the museum. We can talk about that for next. See how you incorporate that. Okay. Maybe that's what we talked to him about. When he comes, he
doesn't give us the whole thing. We'll save it for the community because he does have the 45 minute presentation. And then he has another shorter
presentation that's about good. If we could limit it to like 20 minutes, because we'll all have questions and we will have other things on the agenda. I
will, I will share that. Okay. With him. And. Let's see what else. So I think that's all I
have on that. He yeah, he is a professor. He's a photographer. He does beautiful photographs of wildlife and owls. And so
the only other thing I want to say is it's just good to be here. You're so positive. And I love how supportive you are of each other. So it's a nice,
very nice. We're really very happy that you come and that you've come all the time and you're so engaged, and it means a lot to everybody. Yes. Thank
you everyone. I, I want to be committed. I, you know, I haven't told everybody, but I do spend half the year out of state, so I won't be here all the time. But when I'm here, I
plan on being here. Well, thank you, thank you. It means a lot to us. Yes. I'm so glad. And I was also wondering if maybe his
the presentation that the maybe the Tarpon Council might want to hear it some time. Not. Well, let's let's talk to him about
it. And he seems to be move it forward very. Or one of your public things. You know, he's very happy. I think he's very
happy to share this. And oh I wanted to ask Holly, you were going to you were going to maybe talk to departments about their use of the anticoagulant
or the or not using. Correct. That is still on my to do list. Okay. It's usually when it's meeting week, there's a it's a big lift to get that ready, but
that is on my whiteboard and it's on my priority list. Jerry, thank you for the reminder. And Doctor Shaw. Shaw would like to know too. I think he's would be very interested. So thank you,
thank you, thank you Jerry. Okay. So. Is that going to be planned to be on the next meeting or do you have to contact him to find out if he's
ready? He's already ready to go for the next meeting. Okay. And if you all agree with that, and I will contact you tomorrow. Okay. Is everybody like to hear
that? And if we could have the shorter version. Thank you so much. Okay. Are there other
things that you'd like to have on the agenda? We should maybe. Doctor Salih, to talk more about your presentation. Yeah,
I'll come back with some updates once I'm able to, and I'll find out more definite
about times at the end of. End of May. Okay. Okay, so we'll talk about that and and and
yours too, if I may just. Yeah, I'm looking at, if we're having the presentation, we will need to finalize your annual report, doctor. Make it follow up on sustainable development
recognition if we have time, if we have any recommendations back from staff at that point, obviously planning the presentation for May would be a priority. So you might want to just kind of put the
landscaping, not that that's not a priority, but since it has several months, we have several months to plan that. That might be a bit on the backburner. One, two, but if there's time, we'll talk about
if there's time, we'll do all of the. Okay, so that sounds like a really good full agenda.
Okay. Staff comments. Yes. I have just a couple of brief comments. And remember, this isn't a discussion, it's just me sharing some updates. And if there are things through my
comments that you all would like to bring to a future agenda, we can absolutely do that. So number one, we do have the state legislature, the
Senate and House have both passed a no. It's a it's a net zero policy bill. It's a bill prohibiting cities from adopting net zero policies. So
that's something that could have further impacts. We do not know. You know, there aren't there hasn't really been time to do any legal interpretations on that. We've got a lot of legal guidance yet to come. So
that was why I didn't want to, you know, have a whole presentation about that tonight. But just to kind of say that's probably something that could impact future, you know, plans, wording of documents, things of
that nature. So keeping that in mind, a keeping that in mind too, that as an agenda item and a presentation. Yes, once there's enough body of, like I
said, the legal interpretation, both from our city attorney as well as any other, you know, state guidance, then I will absolutely plan that for you all to keep you abreast of that.
The second is that tomorrow afternoon, the Tarpon Springs High School Environmental Club is building vertical oyster gardens. They will be installing them at the city
owned dock at Craig Park and possibly also at the splash park and kayak launch where that dock is. If we. It depends on how many we build and how much space they need. But this
is a really cool partnership with their chapters through key panels. Beautiful. And then we've also got the Tampa Bay estuary program coming to help build. So you may have seen the
Girl Scout projects. This is the same thing, but just it's a different group of people that kind of coalesced to bring this together for the high schoolers, which is really, really cool. And it's a key. It's like a legacy project for the high
school environmental club. So really cool. Wow. And the, I believe I worked with, I suggested that the Urban Forestry Urban Forest Management Plan be submitted
for a future of the region award. So those were are due tomorrow, but that's a planning department or it's with the arborist now. So try to facilitate that. And then there
are a couple of upcoming things I wanted to let you all know about. March 24th at the Board of Commissioners meeting, there will be an Earth Day proclamation as well as a water
conservation proclamation. At that same meeting, I just found out they will also be doing a volunteer month proclamation. It's a little bit different from last year in the sense
that it's not. You all are welcome to come for the Earth Day for the water conservation. You'll just conveniently be there for the volunteer. But it's not. The committees are not invited to that simply because the city is going to go
back to hosting an annual volunteer appreciation event. And so that will be scheduled later in April or possibly May. I do not have a firm date for that yet, but I did want to let
you all know that all those proclamations will be given by the mayor at the next Board of Commissioners meeting. If one of you if yes, Earth Day. We've had obviously people come in
the past for that. So if you wanted to come to receive the proclamation plaque, that would be fine. So we can come and
receive the plaque for for Earth Day. Yes. For the Earth Day and proclamation March. That would be next Tuesday, the 24th. Correct? Oh, at the regular Board of Commissioners
meeting. Okay. You want all come and we'll all receive it. Sure, sure. Great. And let's see. The Easter extravaganza is coming up. I just put that on
here for just, you know, saying city outreach events. I will not be able to participate in that one, but a lot of our departments will be there. And then we have the city spring cleanup. That is a solid waste
event April 19th. Just wanted to publicize that. That's the big, you know, bulk pickup and extra items that can't usually be taken. So April 19th is that day. And then there are a
couple of really cool IFAs extension, upcoming classes and workshops. There's one this Saturday on rain. It's rainwater harvesting. Rain barrels is what that is. And then Teresa, who I just met and
told you all about who is the urban oh my goodness, I lost her. I lost her title. She is doing a salt tolerant plants for Pinellas County.
Presentation on the 21st of April at 2 p.m. at the Palm Harbor Library. So I thought some of you might be interested in that as well. So she is a
great new resource. And like I said, her name is Teresa Duric. How do you spell her last name?
I will tell you that. It is B a d u r e k. Okay. And she is the urban horticulture agent slash
master gardener, volunteer leader at the commission meeting. When they get the plaque. About what time do you think it's early? It's at the beginning of the meeting. So
that's six. So it would be. Yes. But six 3630 is when. Thank you. Denise. VOC starts at 630. So between 630 and 7 most likely is when those proclamations
typically are done. Okay, so I may not be there. I have to deliver art for an opening that Saturday. I'll try to be there,
but will you try to be there too, if I'm not? Yes. Okay, great. If there's any scheduling conflicts, we can always. You know, Holly and I will be there anyway, so we can
always have might be able to attend as a backup. Yeah. So we'll have you know, I think the committee members should. Oh, absolutely. I'm just saying, if there was a conflict, if someone couldn't, we will make sure that everyone can, you
know, deliver it to the committee at the next meeting. But I'll be there if I can, but you guys can be there and and get it. That'd be really good.
And I think, oh, and last comment was that two of the storm drain murals are complete. They are painted. I do have pictures on the phone. The
third is going to be painted this weekend. So send me a picture for. I will send you a picture for the presentation as well. But they look amazing. I have pictures on my phone if anybody wants to see them at
the end after the meeting. So I think those are my staff comments. Tommy, do you have anything to add? No. Pretty complete. They're great. Okay. Are there any committee
comments? Can I just add there was an event that was mentioned last month, the Hurricane Preparedness Workshop is being
held on April 22nd. The Savannah mentioned it last time and that's A10750 Ulmerton Road.
Thank you John. Do you have any comments? No, I plan on being at the board meeting. 630.
Right. The all these events sound really interesting. So the, the salt tolerant plant is.
Do you have any comments? No. Okay. I do not either. I assume we have rich other lives outside the committee, and I
urge you all to do it sustainably. And may I have a motion to adjourn the meeting. Motion to adjourn the meeting?
I second the motion. All in favor? Aye. Great. Thank you so
much. All right.
