system. Floral city joined

206
00:23:34,259 --> 00:23:38,196
focus in 2017. A board of

207
00:23:38,196 --> 00:23:40,498
directors was formed and then

208
00:23:40,498 --> 00:23:41,032

phrase and vice President

211
00:23:44,236 --> 00:23:46,638
Sandy Price took to the road.

212
00:23:46,638 --> 00:23:49,007
They visited libraries and

213
00:23:49,007 --> 00:23:49,774
surrounding counties in

214
00:23:49,774 --> 00:23:50,375
Florida, interviewing people

215
00:23:50,375 --> 00:23:51,943
who had bookstores, our

216
00:23:51,943 --> 00:23:54,779
friends of the library groups

217
00:23:54,779 --> 00:23:55,947
to know what categories and

218
00:23:55,947 --> 00:23:59,484
how they price their items.

219
00:23:59,484 --> 00:24:00,085
They share their information

220
00:24:00,085 --> 00:24:01,920
with the board and together

221
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:03,889
decided how vocals would move

222
00:24:03,889 --> 00:24:06,024
forward at the same time,

223
00:24:06,024 --> 00:24:06,925
Leslie was meeting with

224
00:24:06,925 --> 00:24:08,026
community leaders searching

225
00:24:08,026 --> 00:24:09,895
for centralized location to

226
00:24:09,895 --> 00:24:12,063
sort mountains of donated

227
00:24:12,063 --> 00:24:14,232
books dust. The book House was

228
00:24:14,232 --> 00:24:16,101
formed. The first book Cause

229
00:24:16,101 --> 00:24:16,735
was in the auditorium of the

230
00:24:16,735 --> 00:24:19,838
historical Hernando School. It

231
00:24:19,838 --> 00:24:20,405
had no air conditioning, no

232
00:24:20,405 --> 00:24:23,008
heat and no electricity, but

233
00:24:23,008 --> 00:24:24,075
we had books, volunteers and a

234
00:24:24,075 --> 00:24:27,012
mission. And that was enough.

235
00:24:27,012 --> 00:24:28,413
About a year later we held our

236
00:24:28,413 --> 00:24:30,548
first focus book sale

237
00:24:30,548 --> 00:24:32,450
together. The combined sale

238
00:24:32,450 --> 00:24:33,451
raised approximately $20,000

239
00:24:33,451 --> 00:24:36,154
for the library after about 2

240
00:24:36,154 --> 00:24:39,057
years at the Hernando School,

241
00:24:39,057 --> 00:24:40,792
the Citrus County gave us a

242
00:24:40,792 --> 00:24:41,393
classroom in a newer facility

243
00:24:41,393 --> 00:24:44,229
on the same property which was

244
00:24:44,229 --> 00:24:46,197
shared by other nonprofits in

245
00:24:46,197 --> 00:24:49,134
the county. Our rent was just

246
00:24:49,134 --> 00:24:50,135
300 $100 a month. And that was

247
00:24:50,135 --> 00:24:53,672
to help pay for utilities.

248
00:24:53,672 --> 00:24:54,272
Presently rewrite. We rent a

249
00:24:54,272 --> 00:24:57,375
space for $1400 a month money.

250
00:24:57,375 --> 00:24:59,511
We would rather give to the

251
00:24:59,511 --> 00:25:01,680
library system and look where

252
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:02,681
the journey has taken today

253
00:25:02,681 --> 00:25:03,315
are book sales are raising

254
00:25:03,315 --> 00:25:07,152
more than 40,000 per sale. And

255
00:25:07,152 --> 00:25:07,786
we have now reached the

256
00:25:07,786 --> 00:25:10,155
extraordinary 1.5 million

257
00:25:10,155 --> 00:25:12,857
milestone. But this chalk that

258
00:25:12,857 --> 00:25:13,458
we have here today is so much

259
00:25:13,458 --> 00:25:14,793
represents so much more than

260
00:25:14,793 --> 00:25:16,861
money it represents. 25 years

261
00:25:16,861 --> 00:25:19,664
of donated books puzzles

262
00:25:19,664 --> 00:25:22,600
countless hours of sorting and

263
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:24,636
pricing volunteers working the

264
00:25:24,636 --> 00:25:26,371
sales, people loading and

265
00:25:26,371 --> 00:25:27,572
unloading boxes, community

266
00:25:27,572 --> 00:25:28,106
partners who opened their

267
00:25:28,106 --> 00:25:30,875
doors to us and thousands of

268
00:25:30,875 --> 00:25:31,509
customers who came back to our

269
00:25:31,509 --> 00:25:34,746
sale. It’s a sale after stale

270
00:25:34,746 --> 00:25:35,380
because they believe in

271
00:25:35,380 --> 00:25:39,184
supporting the libraries. Most

272
00:25:39,184 --> 00:25:40,018
importantly, it represents

273
00:25:40,018 --> 00:25:40,618
what can happen when a group

274
00:25:40,618 --> 00:25:42,520
of people season need rolls up

275
00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:46,324
their sleeves and keeps going.

276
00:25:46,324 --> 00:25:47,225
Leslie phrase was instrumental

277
00:25:47,225 --> 00:25:49,794
in organizing the focused,

278
00:25:49,794 --> 00:25:50,795
non-profit organization and

279
00:25:50,795 --> 00:25:52,030
guiding the book sales and 2

280
00:25:52,030 --> 00:25:54,966
well-known community events.

281
00:25:54,966 --> 00:25:56,601
Our dear friend Leslie phrase

282
00:25:56,601 --> 00:25:58,837
passed away on May 31st of

283
00:25:58,837 --> 00:26:01,606
this year. Leslie’s love of

284
00:26:01,606 --> 00:26:02,574
books in libraries inspires

285
00:26:02,574 --> 00:26:04,175

289
00:26:09,581 --> 00:26:11,349
proud of what we have

290
00:26:11,349 --> 00:26:12,951
accomplished together and even

291
00:26:12,951 --> 00:26:13,518
more excited about what the

292
00:26:13,518 --> 00:26:16,621
next 25 years could bring.

293
00:26:16,621 --> 00:26:17,455

here. So those easements are

566
00:35:55,700 --> 00:35:59,470
definitely in the way. This is

567
00:35:59,470 --> 00:36:00,538

00:36:01,706 --> 00:36:06,444
trying vacate. Looking up and

574
00:36:09,447 --> 00:36:13,317
However, website went too far.

575
00:36:13,317 --> 00:36:13,851
picture the easement. But

576
00:36:13,851 --> 00:36:14,485

sides of the easement.

611
00:37:41,205 --> 00:37:42,473

that’s on by the public and

622
00:37:56,487 --> 00:37:57,621
the public’s not selling it.

623
00:37:57,621 --> 00:37:59,657
They’re releasing it releasing

00:43:07,031 --> 00:43:08,332
Welcome. I don’t think either

767
00:43:08,332 --> 00:43:11,168
one of you need to review

768
00:43:11,168 --> 00:43:11,769
timing rules state. Your name

769
00:43:11,769 --> 00:43:14,938
for us.

770
00:43:14,938 --> 00:43:15,539
>> I am the wife of

771
00:43:15,539 --> 00:43:18,242
commissioner to my name is Pat

772
00:43:18,242 --> 00:43:19,109
and I want to thank all of you

773
00:43:19,109 --> 00:43:21,545
so much for this. Whatever

774
00:43:21,545 --> 00:43:25,949
we’re doing today, I am so

775
00:43:25,949 --> 00:43:26,850
happy that this is hopefully

776
00:43:26,850 --> 00:43:28,585
going to take place. I know

777
00:43:28,585 --> 00:43:32,489
that dentist would just

778
00:43:32,489 --> 00:43:33,023
totally thrilled. Were he

779
00:43:33,023 --> 00:43:37,027
here? And Daniel and I

780
00:43:37,027 --> 00:43:40,364
appreciate everything and

781
00:43:40,364 --> 00:43:40,998
everything that’s been done in

782
00:43:40,998 --> 00:43:44,234
set for him. Thank you all so

783
00:43:44,234 --> 00:43:44,868
much. Thank you. Thank you for

784
00:43:44,868 --> 00:43:49,339
being here. Pat.

785
00:43:49,339 --> 00:43:49,606
>> Mayer.

786
00:43:49,606 --> 00:43:50,774
>> Good afternoon, everybody.

787
00:43:50,774 --> 00:43:52,142
My name is Joe me. not here on

788
00:43:52,142 --> 00:43:55,913
any city business, but I just

789
00:43:55,913 --> 00:43:58,449
to my friend. And I’m gonna

790
00:43:58,449 --> 00:44:01,652
get emotional here. I promise

791
00:44:01,652 --> 00:44:02,219
you that’s going to happen.

792
00:44:02,219 --> 00:44:03,454
Pat and for Commissioner

793
00:44:03,454 --> 00:44:04,855
Tomato, I think everyone here

794
00:44:04,855 --> 00:44:07,157
knows Commission tomato at the

795
00:44:07,157 --> 00:44:08,559
time, as you know, and nothing

796
00:44:08,559 --> 00:44:12,029
that you guys do is not

797
00:44:12,029 --> 00:44:12,663
controversial. That’s just how

798
00:44:12,663 --> 00:44:15,866
the world is right now. But at

799
00:44:15,866 --> 00:44:16,967
the time that was very

800
00:44:16,967 --> 00:44:17,768
controversial thing Commission

801
00:44:17,768 --> 00:44:18,302
tomato, I can tell you as

802
00:44:18,302 --> 00:44:18,902
someone that served with him

803
00:44:18,902 --> 00:44:22,239
at the time, it was all him.

804
00:44:22,239 --> 00:44:25,843
He he was spearheaded that

805
00:44:25,843 --> 00:44:27,010
building the purchase, worked

806
00:44:27,010 --> 00:44:30,781
with it did a great job and at

807
00:44:30,781 --> 00:44:32,549
the time it was a lot of

808
00:44:32,549 --> 00:44:34,651
money. 3.3 million dollars.

809
00:44:34,651 --> 00:44:35,219
But looking back on it and

810
00:44:35,219 --> 00:44:38,589
what it afforded the county to

811
00:44:38,589 --> 00:44:39,189
be able to do, we never would

812
00:44:39,189 --> 00:44:41,959
have been able to do Build a

813
00:44:41,959 --> 00:44:44,895
building. It’s solved. Many

814
00:44:44,895 --> 00:44:46,196
issues up Westside government

815
00:44:46,196 --> 00:44:47,898
space. All the constitutional

816
00:44:47,898 --> 00:44:49,700
officers and it was all him.

817
00:44:49,700 --> 00:44:52,603
And so I think this would be a

818
00:44:52,603 --> 00:44:53,871
fitting tribute. Start that

819
00:44:53,871 --> 00:44:54,638
process and talk about it. I’m

820
00:44:54,638 --> 00:44:55,172
grateful for everybody up

821
00:44:55,172 --> 00:44:58,609
here. I know each of you. knew

822
00:44:58,609 --> 00:45:01,478
him it’s a much deserving

823
00:45:01,478 --> 00:45:02,513
honor. And I think it’s an

824
00:45:02,513 --> 00:45:03,247
awesome thing that you guys

825
00:45:03,247 --> 00:45:05,182
are doing. So thank you very

826
00:45:05,182 --> 00:45:06,350
much. God bless you guys being

827
00:45:06,350 --> 00:45:09,019
here thank you so much again.

828
00:45:09,019 --> 00:45:11,755
Thank you, Ed.

829
00:45:11,755 --> 00:45:12,289
>> Anyone else would like

830
00:45:12,289 --> 00:45:15,959
speak one. With that. I’ll

831
00:45:15,959 --> 00:45:21,131
close the public comment.

832
00:45:21,131 --> 00:45:21,365
Board.

833
00:45:21,365 --> 00:45:22,299
>> Chairs yeah, I just want to

834
00:45:22,299 --> 00:45:24,368
thank commissioner Canard for

835
00:45:24,368 --> 00:45:24,968
bringing this forward. I was

836
00:45:24,968 --> 00:45:26,336
very pleased to sit down with

837
00:45:26,336 --> 00:45:30,207
Dennis right after actually,

838
00:45:30,207 --> 00:45:31,241
maybe think I was still

839
00:45:31,241 --> 00:45:32,910
running before I even one and

840
00:45:32,910 --> 00:45:34,278
he gave me a lot of his

841
00:45:34,278 --> 00:45:38,315
original early papers on

842
00:45:38,315 --> 00:45:38,916
Biggs, you know, strategy for

843
00:45:38,916 --> 00:45:40,117
the county and so forth. So it

844
00:45:40,117 --> 00:45:43,020
was it was really productive

845
00:45:43,020 --> 00:45:43,620
conversation delighted to get

846
00:45:43,620 --> 00:45:45,923
to know him. And of course,

847
00:45:45,923 --> 00:45:49,860
and got along great, too.

848
00:45:49,860 --> 00:45:52,262
>> Commissioner Kerik. Okay.

849
00:45:52,262 --> 00:45:52,863
You know, I don’t like what I

850
00:45:52,863 --> 00:45:56,600
have to say. Dana. Since 2010.

851
00:45:56,600 --> 00:45:57,734
I came to the board meetings,

852
00:45:57,734 --> 00:46:01,405
commissioner.

853
00:46:01,405 --> 00:46:02,005
>> You know, just before you

854
00:46:02,005 --> 00:46:04,208
know was on. And so

855
00:46:04,208 --> 00:46:08,845
commissioner week. What, Joe,

856
00:46:08,845 --> 00:46:12,382
what Dennis and a passion for.

857
00:46:12,382 --> 00:46:12,983
Is what I would like to seek

858
00:46:12,983 --> 00:46:15,352
named for him. And that would

859
00:46:15,352 --> 00:46:17,321
be the trail that in Crystal

860
00:46:17,321 --> 00:46:18,522
River because he had a passion

861
00:46:18,522 --> 00:46:21,658
for rails to trails and he

862
00:46:21,658 --> 00:46:23,193
shared a whole lot of things

863
00:46:23,193 --> 00:46:24,328
with me for the rails to

864
00:46:24,328 --> 00:46:26,029
trails, including all the

865
00:46:26,029 --> 00:46:26,930
books from all of the

866
00:46:26,930 --> 00:46:28,632
committees that he went to.

867
00:46:28,632 --> 00:46:30,601
And if it weren’t for him, the

868
00:46:30,601 --> 00:46:32,769
rails to trails, which we have

869
00:46:32,769 --> 00:46:35,105
now. Because he wanted to

870
00:46:35,105 --> 00:46:41,044
connected. Statewide. To me,

871
00:46:41,044 --> 00:46:42,579
that would most fitting for

872
00:46:42,579 --> 00:46:43,146
Dennis Tomatoes. Name to be

873
00:46:43,146 --> 00:46:45,115
on. Rather than just a

874
00:46:45,115 --> 00:46:48,719
building. And yet West Side

875
00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:49,319
building is a nice building.

876
00:46:49,319 --> 00:46:52,422
But I will not support this

877
00:46:52,422 --> 00:46:53,757
because I feel that Dennis

878
00:46:53,757 --> 00:46:58,028
would prefer. And that’s from

879
00:46:58,028 --> 00:46:59,496
known him. And you know that

880
00:46:59,496 --> 00:47:00,097
he and I went back and forth

881
00:47:00,097 --> 00:47:04,935
and back and force. He gave me

882
00:47:04,935 --> 00:47:05,969
lots of information. I listen

883
00:47:05,969 --> 00:47:07,638
got a lot of advice from him.

884
00:47:07,638 --> 00:47:11,375
To me. That was his passion.

885
00:47:11,375 --> 00:47:15,445
His strength. The riding the

886
00:47:15,445 --> 00:47:17,714
bikes to walking the family’s

887
00:47:17,714 --> 00:47:18,348
to doing things in this county

888
00:47:18,348 --> 00:47:18,982
because that’s what it was all

889
00:47:18,982 --> 00:47:23,687
about. So if I were put a name

890
00:47:23,687 --> 00:47:24,955
and a half to put money out to

891
00:47:24,955 --> 00:47:25,522
change names and James Jags

892
00:47:25,522 --> 00:47:28,191
and everything. I would be

893
00:47:28,191 --> 00:47:31,495
more everything for me as a

894
00:47:31,495 --> 00:47:33,196
friend. as somebody that learn

895
00:47:33,196 --> 00:47:36,833
from him to do trailing edge

896
00:47:36,833 --> 00:47:39,369
Crystal River right on 46.

897
00:47:39,369 --> 00:47:43,507
Anyone Commissioner bills?

898
00:47:43,507 --> 00:47:51,882
someone who served with

899
00:47:51,882 --> 00:47:55,852
Commissioner Tomato. He could

900
00:47:55,852 --> 00:47:57,621
be known for many things. He

901
00:47:57,621 --> 00:48:01,658
was.

902
00:48:01,658 --> 00:48:02,759
>> Probably part of I enjoyed

903
00:48:02,759 --> 00:48:03,560
learning from him. He was one

904
00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:04,161
of the biggest fish in areas

905
00:48:04,161 --> 00:48:09,733
this county. There’s many

906
00:48:09,733 --> 00:48:11,835
things to be thankful for. His

907
00:48:11,835 --> 00:48:12,336
mission throughout this

908
00:48:12,336 --> 00:48:13,904
county, the trails, the

909
00:48:13,904 --> 00:48:17,841
Westside Government Center.

910
00:48:17,841 --> 00:48:18,442
The medical corridor which is

911
00:48:18,442 --> 00:48:24,915
lost his designation. And that

912
00:48:24,915 --> 00:48:26,049
was a man who struggled with

913
00:48:26,049 --> 00:48:28,352
his own physical impairments

914
00:48:28,352 --> 00:48:30,921
during that time. Joe and I or

915
00:48:30,921 --> 00:48:35,559
do Rex, all of us were do Rex.

916
00:48:35,559 --> 00:48:36,126
I can’t think of something

917
00:48:36,126 --> 00:48:39,229
that would be more fitting

918
00:48:39,229 --> 00:48:43,367
proud to support this. I happy

919
00:48:43,367 --> 00:48:49,606
belated birthday. As someone

920
00:48:49,606 --> 00:48:52,709
who didn’t serve.

921
00:48:52,709 --> 00:48:54,778
>> With him, but just a young

922
00:48:54,778 --> 00:48:56,346
girl in the community and

923
00:48:56,346 --> 00:48:56,947
non-profit work and sometimes

924
00:48:56,947 --> 00:48:57,447
running around with his

925
00:48:57,447 --> 00:49:00,550
daughter. Also doing

926
00:49:00,550 --> 00:49:03,453
non-profit work back during

927
00:49:03,453 --> 00:49:06,056
that time, he was just like a

928
00:49:06,056 --> 00:49:09,092
and a through the cancer and

929
00:49:09,092 --> 00:49:09,726
through the hard times who the

930
00:49:09,726 --> 00:49:12,629
stuff kind and loving. I knew

931
00:49:12,629 --> 00:49:16,500
beyond that he tried to think

932
00:49:16,500 --> 00:49:18,368
of the lecanto area, you know,

933
00:49:18,368 --> 00:49:19,636
always fight for us to get

934
00:49:19,636 --> 00:49:21,638
things to look better and be

935
00:49:21,638 --> 00:49:24,641
better. And always thought better. And one of the

936
00:49:24,641 --> 00:49:28,311
best for Citrus County. And

937
00:49:28,311 --> 00:49:30,180
that was somebody much younger

938
00:49:30,180 --> 00:49:31,515
and maybe not all in paying

939
00:49:31,515 --> 00:49:33,216
attention to government at the

940
00:49:33,216 --> 00:49:36,353
time. and that still always

941
00:49:36,353 --> 00:49:37,654
took time to be kind and

942
00:49:37,654 --> 00:49:38,889
helpful to me whenever he

943
00:49:38,889 --> 00:49:43,059
could. I do. No. His impact

944
00:49:43,059 --> 00:49:43,894
with Meadow crest. obviously

945
00:49:43,894 --> 00:49:48,832
that would be fitting. I think

946
00:49:48,832 --> 00:49:50,500
that’s wonderful that he was

947
00:49:50,500 --> 00:49:51,101
also involved so much in the

948
00:49:51,101 --> 00:49:52,669
trailhead. I didn’t know that,

949
00:49:52,669 --> 00:49:58,375
but that’s just piling why?

950
00:49:58,375 --> 00:49:59,709
the Inter should be? Yes,

951
00:49:59,709 --> 00:50:05,615
I we’ve we’ve got we’ve got 1, thing he can. He can have a

952
00:50:05,615 --> 00:50:09,286
lasting impression. So we’re

953
00:50:09,286 --> 00:50:10,454

00:52:16,279 --> 00:52:20,250
Back and about this. The man

1004
00:52:20,250 --> 00:52:21,217
deserves something in a

1005
00:52:21,217 --> 00:52:24,120
library. This is going to be

1006
00:52:24,120 --> 00:52:24,754
the anniversary and grocery of

1007
00:52:24,754 --> 00:52:28,224
this a nation. I heard that

1008
00:52:28,224 --> 00:52:33,463
library board. Was can was

1009
00:52:33,463 --> 00:52:34,531
going to consider it, but then

1010
00:52:34,531 --> 00:52:36,733
took away that to took took it

1011
00:52:36,733 --> 00:52:38,802
away because they said he was

1012
00:52:38,802 --> 00:52:41,905
not historical figure with.

1013
00:52:41,905 --> 00:52:47,477
Historical figures. Anyone.

1014
00:52:47,477 --> 00:52:50,547
impacts society either in a

1015
00:52:50,547 --> 00:52:51,081
Blodget of light or in a

1016
00:52:51,081 --> 00:52:56,686
negative light. Hitler Pol

1017
00:52:56,686 --> 00:53:00,123
Those historical figures and

1018
00:53:00,123 --> 00:53:03,293
you have Martin Luther King

1019
00:53:03,293 --> 00:53:06,096
and you have Charlie Kirk. And

1020
00:53:06,096 --> 00:53:07,564
to me, they are both the sea.

1021
00:53:07,564 --> 00:53:11,267
They have both.

1022
00:53:11,267 --> 00:53:15,505
>> Been on eye.

1023
00:53:15,505 --> 00:53:17,641
>> The record of well like

1024
00:53:17,641 --> 00:53:22,712
saying. Martin Luther King

1025
00:53:22,712 --> 00:53:24,748
wanted the right to for the

1026
00:53:24,748 --> 00:53:27,851
right to speak his mind. He

1027
00:53:27,851 --> 00:53:30,654
spoke. For the spirit rather

1028
00:53:30,654 --> 00:53:32,555
than the flash. So that

1029
00:53:32,555 --> 00:53:36,760
Charlie He believe in family

1030
00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:39,429
values so that Charlie Kirk.

1031
00:53:39,429 --> 00:53:43,099
He was an influential. So if

1032
00:53:43,099 --> 00:53:45,201
Charlie Kirk, he influenced

1033
00:53:45,201 --> 00:53:47,037
many, many people brought them

1034
00:53:47,037 --> 00:53:48,071
to Christianity, especially

1035
00:53:48,071 --> 00:53:49,005
college students made him

1036
00:53:49,005 --> 00:53:52,509
think about their lives. He

1037
00:53:52,509 --> 00:53:58,848
was for. Marriage rather than

1038
00:53:58,848 --> 00:54:03,887
race you know, he was so many

1039
00:54:03,887 --> 00:54:05,255
of these things we all hold

1040
00:54:05,255 --> 00:54:09,359
dear, the nuclear family, man

1041
00:54:09,359 --> 00:54:13,997
being man woman, being woman.

1042
00:54:13,997 --> 00:54:15,331
People trying to say that was

1043
00:54:15,331 --> 00:54:17,534
controversial. No, it’s not.

1044
00:54:17,534 --> 00:54:20,970
It’s what it is. The

1045
00:54:20,970 --> 00:54:21,738
mandate church, something in a

1046
00:54:21,738 --> 00:54:23,373
library. And if anybody could.

1047
00:54:23,373 --> 00:54:27,911
Get him. To get little patient

1048
00:54:27,911 --> 00:54:29,546
there. At least a little

1049
00:54:29,546 --> 00:54:30,814
memorial to the fact that he

1050
00:54:30,814 --> 00:54:33,383
has done good in society. The

1051
00:54:33,383 --> 00:54:36,553
only difference between him

1052
00:54:36,553 --> 00:54:37,187
and Martin Luther King is that

1053
00:54:37,187 --> 00:54:38,855
he was white. Martin Luther

1054
00:54:38,855 --> 00:54:42,525
was black. And that’s the only

1055
00:54:42,525 --> 00:54:43,126
difference I see in a lot of

1056
00:54:43,126 --> 00:54:47,430
people see that he’s got a

1057
00:54:47,430 --> 00:54:48,031
movement going. It’s turning

1058
00:54:48,031 --> 00:54:48,565
Point USA that is really

1059
00:54:48,565 --> 00:54:51,034
catching on. And it might have

1060
00:54:51,034 --> 00:54:53,002
a lot to do with easement

1061
00:54:53,002 --> 00:54:56,906
times. So bear that mine and

1062
00:54:56,906 --> 00:54:58,041
give the he’s a man a break.

1063
00:54:58,041 --> 00:54:58,675
He was assassinated to what he

1064
00:54:58,675 --> 00:54:59,175
believed. He was a good

1065
00:54:59,175 --> 00:55:02,445
person. I appreciate your

1066
00:55:02,445 --> 00:55:03,379
attention and thank you for

1067
00:55:03,379 --> 00:55:04,881
that. Thank you.

1068
00:55:04,881 --> 00:55:14,991
>> Next, Speaker. Number 3.

1069
00:55:14,991 --> 00:55:17,260
Mr. Had early.

1070
00:55:17,260 --> 00:55:19,696
>> Good afternoon. Madam Chair

1071
00:55:19,696 --> 00:55:23,233
Vice Chair. Derek

1072
00:55:23,233 --> 00:55:23,800
Commissioners. My name is

1073
00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:25,769
Chuck I live in Inverness. I

1074
00:55:25,769 --> 00:55:30,874
was at the during a fever.

1075
00:55:30,874 --> 00:55:32,175
mosquito-borne are and I tried

1076
00:55:32,175 --> 00:55:32,709
to learn what I can learn

1077
00:55:32,709 --> 00:55:34,544
about the issue and the good

1078
00:55:34,544 --> 00:55:36,579
work that they’re doing. So I

1079
00:55:36,579 --> 00:55:39,482
went on talk to my neighbor

1080
00:55:39,482 --> 00:55:42,418
and told her about what I and

1081
00:55:42,418 --> 00:55:43,052
why we were talking. I noticed

1082
00:55:43,052 --> 00:55:45,021
a puff of smoke out there near

1083
00:55:45,021 --> 00:55:49,025
banning at Benning Road. And I

1084
00:55:49,025 --> 00:55:49,626
thought it was just a washing

1085
00:55:49,626 --> 00:55:51,528
machine or something going on.

1086
00:55:51,528 --> 00:55:53,997
Smoke and suddenly it turned

1087
00:55:53,997 --> 00:55:57,167
black and said that that house

1088
00:55:57,167 --> 00:55:59,903
next door is on fire. That

1089
00:55:59,903 --> 00:56:00,470
older nobody was around. It

1090
00:56:00,470 --> 00:56:03,206
was just me and her. she said

1091
00:56:03,206 --> 00:56:06,709
someone might be in there. I

1092
00:56:06,709 --> 00:56:07,310
went to pound on the door and

1093
00:56:07,310 --> 00:56:08,344
the door was hot. So I got

1094
00:56:08,344 --> 00:56:11,347
away and she’s phoning 9-1-1.

1095
00:56:11,347 --> 00:56:12,315
And she said, Go Rescue. The

1096
00:56:12,315 --> 00:56:14,784
dog gets in the pack that in

1097
00:56:14,784 --> 00:56:17,520
and I’m not a dog person with

1098
00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:20,456
I’ve seen the dog in the in

1099
00:56:20,456 --> 00:56:21,024

1100
00:56:21,024 --> 00:56:25,628

1140
00:57:52,282 --> 00:57:52,916
represent the Christian Family

1141
00:57:52,916 --> 00:57:55,285
Coalition where statewide

1142
00:57:55,285 --> 00:57:55,919
organization we lobby not only

1143
00:57:55,919 --> 00:57:59,389
Tallahassee, but also school

1144
00:57:59,389 --> 00:57:59,989
boards in county commissions

1145
00:57:59,989 --> 00:58:00,556
like yourself to defend

1146
00:58:00,556 --> 00:58:02,859
religious freedoms into.

1147
00:58:02,859 --> 00:58:06,095
Promote family values and the

1148
00:58:06,095 --> 00:58:06,629
reason I’m here today is

1149
00:58:06,629 --> 00:58:10,733
because recently are actually

1150
00:58:10,733 --> 00:58:14,304
let month the county

1151
00:58:14,304 --> 00:58:14,938
commission voted on the policy

1152
00:58:14,938 --> 00:58:20,510
for the library displays the

1153
00:58:20,510 --> 00:58:21,611
chairwoman dining Finnegan

1154
00:58:21,611 --> 00:58:24,447
said that the policy would

1155
00:58:24,447 --> 00:58:25,848
allow historical displays of

1156
00:58:25,848 --> 00:58:27,817
Charlie Kirk Martin Luther

1157
00:58:27,817 --> 00:58:28,418
King’s specifically 2 days

1158
00:58:28,418 --> 00:58:31,387
later, the Library advisory

1159
00:58:31,387 --> 00:58:34,490
board met and literally just

1160
00:58:34,490 --> 00:58:34,991
contradicted the county

1161
00:58:34,991 --> 00:58:35,625
commission. Is that no, that’s

1162
00:58:35,625 --> 00:58:36,192
wrong. Charlie Kirk is not

1163
00:58:36,192 --> 00:58:36,726
just Oracle. I feel that

1164
00:58:36,726 --> 00:58:42,732
that’s you know, defying the proper authority. I think

1165
00:58:42,732 --> 00:58:45,368
that’s we fight with way out

1166
00:58:45,368 --> 00:58:45,969
of line. And I told you this

1167
00:58:45,969 --> 00:58:46,869
before that are liberals or

1168
00:58:46,869 --> 00:58:49,639
cowards because, you know, a

1169
00:58:49,639 --> 00:58:50,807
couple of constructing a

1170
00:58:50,807 --> 00:58:51,507
couple of liberal showed up

1171
00:58:51,507 --> 00:58:54,344
mostly conservative short of

1172
00:58:54,344 --> 00:58:55,845
that board as did to you know,

1173
00:58:55,845 --> 00:58:56,479
prove a library policy library

1174
00:58:56,479 --> 00:58:58,748
display for Charlie Kirk and

1175
00:58:58,748 --> 00:59:00,416
they ended up going with a

1176
00:59:00,416 --> 00:59:02,352
couple of people called

1177
00:59:02,352 --> 00:59:03,586
divisive. One of the members

1178
00:59:03,586 --> 00:59:05,455
actually said decisive. I

1179
00:59:05,455 --> 00:59:08,091
don’t know the quality the

1180
00:59:08,091 --> 00:59:08,725
people that being approved for

1181
00:59:08,725 --> 00:59:09,292
the support of is just kind

1182
00:59:09,292 --> 00:59:15,231
of. Totally inappropriate. So

1183
00:59:15,231 --> 00:59:16,032
either just to publish the

1184
00:59:16,032 --> 00:59:16,933
border, please you know, it

1185
00:59:16,933 --> 00:59:20,670
appointing conservatives that

1186
00:59:20,670 --> 00:59:21,704
represent the people of Citrus

1187
00:59:21,704 --> 00:59:22,171
County, not the polar

1188
00:59:22,171 --> 00:59:22,605
opposite. Only one

1189
00:59:22,605 --> 00:59:25,608
conservative right now on that

1190
00:59:25,608 --> 00:59:26,576
board. But regardless of that,

1191
00:59:26,576 --> 00:59:27,076
I think that the county

1192
00:59:27,076 --> 00:59:28,811
commission needs to just, you

1193
00:59:28,811 --> 00:59:32,115
know, say what they already

1194
00:59:32,115 --> 00:59:32,682
said that the policy says,

1195
00:59:32,682 --> 00:59:37,820
which is that allows Charlie

1196
00:59:37,820 --> 00:59:39,122
book The I want let you know

1197
00:59:39,122 --> 00:59:39,889
that this morning I was at the

1198
00:59:39,889 --> 00:59:43,292
Lake County Commission meeting

1199
00:59:43,292 --> 00:59:43,893
and we there were several of

1200
00:59:43,893 --> 00:59:47,196
us that went and we all asked

1201
00:59:47,196 --> 00:59:48,965
them to do a library. I mean,

1202
00:59:48,965 --> 00:59:49,832
Charlie Kirk, the of

1203
00:59:49,832 --> 00:59:50,366
remembrance because up in

1204
00:59:50,366 --> 00:59:53,002
Tallahassee this year there

1205
00:59:53,002 --> 00:59:54,971
was a bill that would declared

1206
00:59:54,971 --> 00:59:56,005
October the 14th, which is

1207
00:59:56,005 --> 00:59:56,606
Charlie Kirk’s birthday, the

1208
00:59:56,606 --> 00:59:58,508
Charlie Kirk, remembrance.

1209
00:59:58,508 --> 01:00:00,376
passed the House of

1210
01:00:00,376 --> 01:00:01,411
Representatives. But when he

1211
01:00:01,411 --> 01:00:03,179
went to the Senate, pass all

1212
01:00:03,179 --> 01:00:04,280
the committees, but the rules

1213
01:00:04,280 --> 01:00:04,881
chair decided not to allow to

1214
01:00:04,881 --> 01:00:07,650
come to the floor for a vote.

1215
01:00:07,650 --> 01:00:08,151
So the Christian family

1216
01:00:08,151 --> 01:00:08,751
collisions been going around

1217
01:00:08,751 --> 01:00:10,319
to different counties and

1218
01:00:10,319 --> 01:00:12,021
asking them to do a Charlie

1219
01:00:12,021 --> 01:00:12,622
Crist, a remembrance a number

1220
01:00:12,622 --> 01:00:14,524
of counties have already

1221
01:00:14,524 --> 01:00:16,759
agreed. This is a list of the

1222
01:00:16,759 --> 01:00:17,593
counties that have honor

1223
01:00:17,593 --> 01:00:18,227
Charlie Kirk, either by naming

1224
01:00:18,227 --> 01:00:20,763
roads after a nearby declaring

1225
01:00:20,763 --> 01:00:24,300
2 14, the day remembrance in

1226
01:00:24,300 --> 01:00:26,302
some cases allowing our

1227
01:00:26,302 --> 01:00:26,936
requesting a book display. The

1228
01:00:26,936 --> 01:00:30,640
libraries. Sumter, Marion,

1229
01:00:30,640 --> 01:00:31,607
Hernando Lake Gilchrist,

1230
01:00:31,607 --> 01:00:34,544
Jefferson, Flagler, Collier,

1231
01:00:34,544 --> 01:00:37,213
Manatee Walton There may be

1232
01:00:37,213 --> 01:00:39,015
others but Citrus County is

1233
01:00:39,015 --> 01:00:39,549
one of the very few that

1234
01:00:39,549 --> 01:00:42,418
hasn’t done anything either

1235
01:00:42,418 --> 01:00:43,086
Murrow display. I mean, story

1236
01:00:43,086 --> 01:00:45,221
of a road renaming a A day of

1237
01:00:45,221 --> 01:00:46,155
remembrance, a book display

1238
01:00:46,155 --> 01:00:49,725
and I just want remind why

1239
01:00:49,725 --> 01:00:53,796
Charlie Kirk was killed.

1240
01:00:53,796 --> 01:00:55,798
Charlie Kirk’s killer,

1241
01:00:55,798 --> 01:00:56,232
although he wasn’t

1242
01:00:56,232 --> 01:00:57,033
transgender, he was dating a

1243
01:00:57,033 --> 01:00:57,733
transgender. And the reason

1244
01:00:57,733 --> 01:00:58,301
that he was upset, Charlie

1245
01:00:58,301 --> 01:01:00,002
Kirk is because basically

1246
01:01:00,002 --> 01:01:03,773
spoke difficult truth that and

1247
01:01:03,773 --> 01:01:04,340
cannot become a And that is

1248
01:01:04,340 --> 01:01:08,778
just. The vast majority.

1249
01:01:08,778 --> 01:01:10,847
People agree with that. the

1250
01:01:10,847 --> 01:01:12,982
best majority people in sit in

1251
01:01:12,982 --> 01:01:14,851
Citrus County, especially are

1252
01:01:14,851 --> 01:01:17,186
Christians and they don’t want

1253
01:01:17,186 --> 01:01:17,820
a target on their back because

1254
01:01:17,820 --> 01:01:18,421
they don’t agree that a man

1255
01:01:18,421 --> 01:01:21,324
can become a woman. And

1256
01:01:21,324 --> 01:01:21,891
basically that’s why he was

1257
01:01:21,891 --> 01:01:25,528
killed. And when the library

1258
01:01:25,528 --> 01:01:27,630
advisory board, you know that

1259
01:01:27,630 --> 01:01:28,998
they decide because a couple

1260
01:01:28,998 --> 01:01:29,832
of people, including a

1261
01:01:29,832 --> 01:01:30,800
transgender community, trance,

1262
01:01:30,800 --> 01:01:31,434
whatever transvestite comes to

1263
01:01:31,434 --> 01:01:33,202
the library advisory board.

1264
01:01:33,202 --> 01:01:36,973
And says he was divisive. They

1265
01:01:36,973 --> 01:01:37,607
say, oh, we can have a display

1266
01:01:37,607 --> 01:01:41,911
of him now. The same meeting,

1267
01:01:41,911 --> 01:01:42,545
the library director said that

1268
01:01:42,545 --> 01:01:44,881
Black History Month will

1269
01:01:44,881 --> 01:01:46,282
continue. Black History Month

1270
01:01:46,282 --> 01:01:46,849
displays include Malcolm X,

1271
01:01:46,849 --> 01:01:51,320
who was. anti white extremist.

1272
01:01:51,320 --> 01:01:52,822
You know, so you can have a

1273
01:01:52,822 --> 01:01:53,389
month-long of Malcolm X and

1274
01:01:53,389 --> 01:01:56,392
not even a week of Charlie

1275
01:01:56,392 --> 01:01:56,959
Kirk. So I think it’s very

1276
01:01:56,959 --> 01:01:59,795
important that the county

1277
01:01:59,795 --> 01:02:00,930
commission now that they’ve

1278
01:02:00,930 --> 01:02:02,565
created a policy and they’ve

1279
01:02:02,565 --> 01:02:03,799
interpreted in a certain way

1280
01:02:03,799 --> 01:02:04,700
that they allow a Charlie Kirk

1281
01:02:04,700 --> 01:02:05,835
display for one week in

1282
01:02:05,835 --> 01:02:10,439
October the other thing I

1283
01:02:10,439 --> 01:02:10,940
wanted to just briefly

1284
01:02:10,940 --> 01:02:16,012
addresses that. A couple

1285
01:02:16,012 --> 01:02:16,546
meetings that EU meetings

1286
01:02:16,546 --> 01:02:17,246
before the election. I

1287
01:02:17,246 --> 01:02:19,415
mentioned that I felt that the

1288
01:02:19,415 --> 01:02:20,816
sheriff should be here before

1289
01:02:20,816 --> 01:02:21,450
you and I I believe he’s going

1290
01:02:21,450 --> 01:02:24,053
to be here on today’s turnout

1291
01:02:24,053 --> 01:02:25,555
during the budget tentative

1292
01:02:25,555 --> 01:02:29,592
budget session. And when he’s

1293
01:02:29,592 --> 01:02:30,226
here, I want you to ask him

1294
01:02:30,226 --> 01:02:32,728
about the how that sheriff’s

1295
01:02:32,728 --> 01:02:34,497
office is responding to death.

1296
01:02:34,497 --> 01:02:37,767
That threat complaints.

1297
01:02:37,767 --> 01:02:38,367
Actually, I didn’t know that

1298
01:02:38,367 --> 01:02:40,536
she would be here, but the the

1299
01:02:40,536 --> 01:02:45,441
candidate who? Was that fit?

1300
01:02:45,441 --> 01:02:47,577
My uh, I want you to address

1301
01:02:47,577 --> 01:02:48,177
that during a budget hearing.

1302
01:02:48,177 --> 01:02:50,479
Thank you so much.

1303
01:02:50,479 --> 01:02:51,414
>> Thanks for being here.

1304
01:02:51,414 --> 01:02:52,281
Next. Speaker. You are what

1305
01:02:52,281 --> 01:02:53,783
number Mr. The roof or here

1306
01:02:53,783 --> 01:03:09,398
are 3, 4. For 5. Coming up. I

1307
01:03:09,398 --> 01:03:09,932
don’t there wasn’t a to I

1308
01:03:09,932 --> 01:03:13,703
don’t think there’s a 4. Here

1309
01:03:13,703 --> 01:03:20,209
are 3, okay. Come on up. I do.

1310
01:03:20,209 --> 01:03:20,509
Mister Pat.

1311
01:03:20,509 --> 01:03:22,712
>> I’m doing good. Joe Papp

1312

Citrus County Crystal River.

1313
01:03:26,616 --> 01:03:27,683
Every you know, the couple

1314
01:03:27,683 --> 01:03:28,584
spoke about Charlie Kirk. I

1315
01:03:28,584 --> 01:03:32,154
don’t have a whole lot to add.

1316
01:03:32,154 --> 01:03:32,855
But to me, this is a barometer

1317
01:03:32,855 --> 01:03:33,489
right for the hearts and minds

1318
01:03:33,489 --> 01:03:34,624
of the leaders of this

1319
01:03:34,624 --> 01:03:39,128
community. And with some

1320
01:03:39,128 --> 01:03:39,729
looking stand up and I don’t

1321
01:03:39,729 --> 01:03:41,297
even this is logical. Doesn’t

1322
01:03:41,297 --> 01:03:44,200
make sense. Charlie Kirk was

1323
01:03:44,200 --> 01:03:45,067
influencer, the influence he

1324
01:03:45,067 --> 01:03:46,936
gave a different point of

1325
01:03:46,936 --> 01:03:51,240
view. 2 liberal colleges to

1326
01:03:51,240 --> 01:03:52,842
students with you Rush

1327
01:03:52,842 --> 01:03:57,013
Limbaugh’s skate say schools

1328
01:03:57,013 --> 01:03:57,546
for most young Scot will.

1329
01:03:57,546 --> 01:04:00,249
However, he said it. It

1330
01:04:00,249 --> 01:04:02,285
doesn’t make sense. He was an

1331
01:04:02,285 --> 01:04:04,120
influencer. Yes, he gave

1332
01:04:04,120 --> 01:04:04,720
college students an opposite

1333
01:04:04,720 --> 01:04:06,389
view of the liberal stuff.

1334
01:04:06,389 --> 01:04:10,059
They were teaching. And I

1335
01:04:10,059 --> 01:04:10,726
don’t understand there was no

1336
01:04:10,726 --> 01:04:12,862
politics. He wasn’t running

1337
01:04:12,862 --> 01:04:14,930
for anything. He didn’t. I

1338
01:04:14,930 --> 01:04:15,931
mean, you know, if you’re

1339
01:04:15,931 --> 01:04:17,967
conservative, you can say good

1340
01:04:17,967 --> 01:04:18,968
things about conservatives.

1341
01:04:18,968 --> 01:04:19,902
Malcolm X can say bad things

1342
01:04:19,902 --> 01:04:20,736
about conservatives and lean

1343
01:04:20,736 --> 01:04:28,077
left. That’s fine. So I’m just asking you guys to

1344
01:04:28,077 --> 01:04:29,078
the board to consider it

1345
01:04:29,078 --> 01:04:29,712
again. Just override with the

1346
01:04:29,712 --> 01:04:32,181
library board said. And I

1347
01:04:32,181 --> 01:04:32,748
think it’s a good thing for

1348
01:04:32,748 --> 01:04:35,251
the whole community. Really

1349
01:04:35,251 --> 01:04:38,020
when you honor somebody, even

1350
01:04:38,020 --> 01:04:38,688
if they disagree with you or

1351
01:04:38,688 --> 01:04:39,255
you disagree with them, it

1352
01:04:39,255 --> 01:04:42,224
doesn’t make sense. And why

1353
01:04:42,224 --> 01:04:42,758
couldn’t the majority of

1354
01:04:42,758 --> 01:04:43,292
people in this county be

1355
01:04:43,292 --> 01:04:48,698
heard? And I think Like John

1356
01:04:48,698 --> 01:04:49,231
just said, you know, most

1357
01:04:49,231 --> 01:04:49,832
people here are conservatives

1358
01:04:49,832 --> 01:04:53,302
in this county. And a lot

1359
01:04:53,302 --> 01:04:54,503
Christians and they would like

1360
01:04:54,503 --> 01:04:55,071
to see something like this.

1361
01:04:55,071 --> 01:04:58,708
And so what I small thing in

1362
01:04:58,708 --> 01:04:59,408
the scheme of things compared

1363
01:04:59,408 --> 01:04:59,975
to some of the other things

1364
01:04:59,975 --> 01:05:02,945
we’re facing. But I think it’s

1365
01:05:02,945 --> 01:05:03,813
important encouraging you guys

1366
01:05:03,813 --> 01:05:06,082
to do that. Thank you very

1367
01:05:06,082 --> 01:05:08,784
much. Thank you.

1368
01:05:08,784 --> 01:05:09,719
>> Number 6, Mr. Pap. I think

1369
01:05:09,719 --> 01:05:12,655
she needs She needs the okay.

1370
01:05:12,655 --> 01:05:19,395
Number 6. Mr. Brown, are you

1371
01:05:19,395 --> 01:05:19,662
limping?

1372
01:05:19,662 --> 01:05:23,499
>> Yeah. Yeah.

1373
01:05:23,499 --> 01:05:24,133
>> That’s unlike tripping. And

1374
01:05:24,133 --> 01:05:27,370
a dog called proof. State.

1375
01:05:27,370 --> 01:05:28,404
Your name and where you’re

1376
01:05:28,404 --> 01:05:29,071
from. My name is Ray Brown. I

1377
01:05:29,071 --> 01:05:31,741
live in Houma Sasser. Thank

1378
01:05:31,741 --> 01:05:33,776
you, commissioners for being

1379
01:05:33,776 --> 01:05:35,945
here. The reason I’m here is

1380
01:05:35,945 --> 01:05:36,479
because I do want to talk

1381
01:05:36,479 --> 01:05:40,916
about the library and I

1382
01:05:40,916 --> 01:05:41,650
believe that their gross

1383
01:05:41,650 --> 01:05:45,488
mismanagement of their money

1384
01:05:45,488 --> 01:05:47,490
as we were talking last a

1385
01:05:47,490 --> 01:05:48,691
library board. They were

1386
01:05:48,691 --> 01:05:49,892
talking about the to

1387
01:05:49,892 --> 01:05:51,627
approximate about 6 million

1388
01:05:51,627 --> 01:05:53,863
dollars for the library.

1389
01:05:53,863 --> 01:05:57,166
budget, which means that 1.2

1390
01:05:57,166 --> 01:06:01,203
million dollars per a lot

1391
01:06:01,203 --> 01:06:03,672
money for libraries as what

1392
01:06:03,672 --> 01:06:05,674
the library board is asking

1393
01:06:05,674 --> 01:06:08,577
for. And so when I think about

1394
01:06:08,577 --> 01:06:09,745
that, that seems like awful

1395
01:06:09,745 --> 01:06:13,983
lot of money that is be an MS

1396
01:06:13,983 --> 01:06:17,253
manage some good. But we have

1397
01:06:17,253 --> 01:06:18,821
no idea how it’s being

1398
01:06:18,821 --> 01:06:22,124
mismanaged. 1.2 million

1399
01:06:22,124 --> 01:06:24,794
dollars of our tax payer money

1400
01:06:24,794 --> 01:06:27,229
is going to a library board

1401
01:06:27,229 --> 01:06:29,665
our library where the board

1402
01:06:29,665 --> 01:06:31,534
it’s so slanted in one

1403
01:06:31,534 --> 01:06:33,502
direction that I feel like

1404
01:06:33,502 --> 01:06:35,571
maybe what we should do is

1405
01:06:35,571 --> 01:06:38,407
look to see how our money is

1406
01:06:38,407 --> 01:06:39,809
being spent, where it’s being

1407
01:06:39,809 --> 01:06:40,876
spent, how it’s being spent

1408
01:06:40,876 --> 01:06:43,479
and what on is it being spent

1409
01:06:43,479 --> 01:06:46,649
on there should be type I know

1410
01:06:46,649 --> 01:06:48,651
you come out. The budget says,

1411
01:06:48,651 --> 01:06:50,486
hey, we need But what we

1412
01:06:50,486 --> 01:06:51,086
didn’t really need that money

1413
01:06:51,086 --> 01:06:57,693
for. Because our taxes. We

1414
01:06:57,693 --> 01:06:58,294
know that this thing’s going

1415
01:06:58,294 --> 01:07:01,864
to pass for for property

1416
01:07:01,864 --> 01:07:03,032
taxes. Y’all are going to need

1417
01:07:03,032 --> 01:07:06,235
to replenish that money. But I

1418
01:07:06,235 --> 01:07:06,836
would tell you where it comes

1419
01:07:06,836 --> 01:07:13,075
to the library. I believe that library board. And

1420
01:07:13,075 --> 01:07:17,379
library manager. It is not

1421
01:07:17,379 --> 01:07:18,013
going to do what you all love

1422
01:07:18,013 --> 01:07:21,884
directed them to do. So. I ask

1423
01:07:21,884 --> 01:07:26,589
you to. How do we look into

1424
01:07:26,589 --> 01:07:27,156
what are we? What are they

1425
01:07:27,156 --> 01:07:28,123
spending our money on? Where’s

1426
01:07:28,123 --> 01:07:33,229
it? At? You know, like a set

1427
01:07:33,229 --> 01:07:35,598
when you look at it, you know,

1428
01:07:35,598 --> 01:07:36,165
a 6 billion dollars that

1429
01:07:36,165 --> 01:07:38,901
doesn’t sound so bad. But when

1430
01:07:38,901 --> 01:07:39,535
you look at it, that is 5

1431
01:07:39,535 --> 01:07:44,240
libraries. What’s 1.0? 2

1432
01:07:44,240 --> 01:07:44,940
million dollars per library

1433
01:07:44,940 --> 01:07:47,643
going to? Where’s the money?

1434
01:07:47,643 --> 01:07:49,979
Follow the because citizens

1435
01:07:49,979 --> 01:07:53,015
like myself, we want to know

1436
01:07:53,015 --> 01:07:54,950
and if they’re going to, you

1437
01:07:54,950 --> 01:07:56,752
know, basically their nose up

1438
01:07:56,752 --> 01:07:59,021
well. We want to know where

1439
01:07:59,021 --> 01:08:01,690
that money is being spent and

1440
01:08:01,690 --> 01:08:02,291
I’d like to know how to find

1441
01:08:02,291 --> 01:08:04,994
that information out. Thank

1442
01:08:04,994 --> 01:08:05,528
you all so much for being

1443
01:08:05,528 --> 01:08:09,565
here. I really appreciate it.

1444
01:08:09,565 --> 01:08:10,132
Only in America. Do we feel

1445
01:08:10,132 --> 01:08:10,766
like we can come in front of a

1446
01:08:10,766 --> 01:08:13,802
board? And ask you all to

1447
01:08:13,802 --> 01:08:20,576
give? Your citizens a vote.

1448
01:08:20,576 --> 01:08:22,177
And be able to express our

1449
01:08:22,177 --> 01:08:23,178
concern. Thank you all for

1450
01:08:23,178 --> 01:08:26,081
being here. Appreciate it.

1451
01:08:26,081 --> 01:08:30,052
Thank you. And our budget is

1452
01:08:30,052 --> 01:08:31,220
public an online just find the

1453
01:08:31,220 --> 01:08:32,221
at the table of contents at

1454
01:08:32,221 --> 01:08:33,923
the beginning. That says

1455
01:08:33,923 --> 01:08:34,323
library services.

1456
01:08:34,323 --> 01:08:34,857
>> And that will show you

1457
01:08:34,857 --> 01:08:35,424
where all the money’s being

1458
01:08:35,424 --> 01:08:51,774
spent. Okay. Number 7.

1459
01:08:51,774 --> 01:08:52,608
>> Good afternoon.

1460
01:08:52,608 --> 01:08:53,208
Commissioners back again for

1461
01:08:53,208 --> 01:08:56,312
the 3rd time to speak to you

1462
01:08:56,312 --> 01:08:59,448
about surveillance in this

1463
01:08:59,448 --> 01:09:00,649
county Stephen Anderson. And

1464
01:09:00,649 --> 01:09:01,183
I’m a business owner and

1465
01:09:01,183 --> 01:09:04,954
resident, was scary? I’m here

1466
01:09:04,954 --> 01:09:06,221
tonight to praise the recent

1467
01:09:06,221 --> 01:09:07,823
suspension of the sheriff’s

1468
01:09:07,823 --> 01:09:08,457
office automated license Plate

1469
01:09:08,457 --> 01:09:09,291
reader program, but also tears

1470
01:09:09,291 --> 01:09:13,095
as 4 to finish the job.

1471
01:09:13,095 --> 01:09:13,662
Governor DeSantis recently

1472
01:09:13,662 --> 01:09:15,130
revoked say permits for these

1473
01:09:15,130 --> 01:09:16,332
interests are devices

1474
01:09:16,332 --> 01:09:17,099
explicitly warning that we

1475
01:09:17,099 --> 01:09:20,069
must reject a quote, digital,

1476
01:09:20,069 --> 01:09:24,073
surveillance state, unquote.

1477
01:09:24,073 --> 01:09:25,207
The sheriff is turned off his

1478
01:09:25,207 --> 01:09:25,708
department’s cameras. A

1479
01:09:25,708 --> 01:09:26,342
massive legal loophole remains

1480
01:09:26,342 --> 01:09:30,079
rare in Citrus County. Private

1481
01:09:30,079 --> 01:09:30,879
entities. Retail corporations

1482
01:09:30,879 --> 01:09:31,480
like Lowe’s and Inverness and

1483
01:09:31,480 --> 01:09:34,316
private developments are still

1484
01:09:34,316 --> 01:09:35,150
operating independent license

1485
01:09:35,150 --> 01:09:35,718
plate readers that capture

1486
01:09:35,718 --> 01:09:38,654
data and everyday citizens.

1487
01:09:38,654 --> 01:09:39,655
Furthermore, because the

1488
01:09:39,655 --> 01:09:40,155
governor’s mandate only

1489
01:09:40,155 --> 01:09:43,158
applies to state highway

1490
01:09:43,158 --> 01:09:43,692
rights of way. Our local

1491
01:09:43,692 --> 01:09:44,193
county on roads remain

1492
01:09:44,193 --> 01:09:48,430
entirely and protected. A

1493
01:09:48,430 --> 01:09:49,131
citizen’s right to privacy

1494
01:09:49,131 --> 01:09:49,898
should not depend on which

1495
01:09:49,898 --> 01:09:50,432
road drive down or which

1496
01:09:50,432 --> 01:09:52,901
parking lot they enter. If

1497
01:09:52,901 --> 01:09:53,535
private companies can continue

1498
01:09:53,535 --> 01:09:56,705
to harvest or and profit off

1499
01:09:56,705 --> 01:09:57,272
of our travel patterns, we

1500
01:09:57,272 --> 01:09:58,841
have not truly ended mass

1501
01:09:58,841 --> 01:09:59,408
surveillance. We have just

1502
01:09:59,408 --> 01:10:03,345
outsourced it. Or just

1503
01:10:03,345 --> 01:10:03,979
commission to take immediate

1504
01:10:03,979 --> 01:10:04,980
legislative action. We need a

1505
01:10:04,980 --> 01:10:07,883
comprehensive county ordinance

1506
01:10:07,883 --> 01:10:09,018
that prohibits the

1507
01:10:09,018 --> 01:10:09,551
installation of automated

1508
01:10:09,551 --> 01:10:11,020
license plate readers on all

1509
01:10:11,020 --> 01:10:11,587
county maintain roads right

1510
01:10:11,587 --> 01:10:14,356
towards utility poles and

1511
01:10:14,356 --> 01:10:14,990
place. Strict limits on

1512
01:10:14,990 --> 01:10:15,424
private commercial

1513
01:10:15,424 --> 01:10:17,026
surveillance groups within our

1514
01:10:17,026 --> 01:10:19,161
county. Let’s protect our

1515
01:10:19,161 --> 01:10:20,129
citizens 70 and keep Citrus

1516
01:10:20,129 --> 01:10:20,696
County free from continues.

1517
01:10:20,696 --> 01:10:24,199
Tracking. So the first time

1518
01:10:24,199 --> 01:10:25,901
about or tension, you pass a

1519
01:10:25,901 --> 01:10:29,038
book on to the sheriff

1520
01:10:29,038 --> 01:10:29,638
claiming I quote, You didn’t

1521
01:10:29,638 --> 01:10:30,172
have control of where the

1522
01:10:30,172 --> 01:10:32,341
cameras are. And the second

1523
01:10:32,341 --> 01:10:34,009
time I spoke, one of the

1524
01:10:34,009 --> 01:10:35,611
unclaimed, quote, need to look

1525
01:10:35,611 --> 01:10:36,211
into it more that you didn’t

1526
01:10:36,211 --> 01:10:37,780
know enough about it. Tulane

1527
01:10:37,780 --> 01:10:40,649
which way or the other. Well,

1528
01:10:40,649 --> 01:10:42,051
I personally had presented you

1529
01:10:42,051 --> 01:10:43,152
with several facts about the

1530
01:10:43,152 --> 01:10:46,822
technology about how it’s used

1531
01:10:46,822 --> 01:10:47,356
and misused and that was

1532
01:10:47,356 --> 01:10:47,856
direct invasion of your

1533
01:10:47,856 --> 01:10:51,226
constituents. Privacy. As of

1534
01:10:51,226 --> 01:10:52,127
other citizens of Citrus

1535
01:10:52,127 --> 01:10:53,595
County Snow that you’ve heard

1536
01:10:53,595 --> 01:10:54,196
from concerned citizens, the

1537
01:10:54,196 --> 01:10:54,763
sheriff and the governor of

1538
01:10:54,763 --> 01:10:58,033
Florida. Well, you have the

1539
01:10:58,033 --> 01:10:58,567
county attorney draft an

1540
01:10:58,567 --> 01:10:59,968
ordinance banning this

1541
01:10:59,968 --> 01:11:00,569
technology. We use the power

1542
01:11:00,569 --> 01:11:03,505
given to you to do what your

1543
01:11:03,505 --> 01:11:04,873
constituents are asking of.

1544
01:11:04,873 --> 01:11:05,841
You or if another reason to

1545
01:11:05,841 --> 01:11:08,177
brush it off. off our right to

1546
01:11:08,177 --> 01:11:23,592
freely travel. Number 8. Good

1547
01:11:23,592 --> 01:11:33,302
afternoon. My name is Nathan

1548
01:11:33,302 --> 01:11:36,105
and I live in the Cantu. This

1549
01:11:36,105 --> 01:11:38,040
is also my 3rd time speaking

1550
01:11:38,040 --> 01:11:39,208
about Citrus County’s Motorola

1551
01:11:39,208 --> 01:11:42,277
vigilant license plate system.

1552
01:11:42,277 --> 01:11:43,479
>> At the last meeting asked

1553
01:11:43,479 --> 01:11:44,813
with this board found after

1554
01:11:44,813 --> 01:11:45,380
chair, but again she would

1555
01:11:45,380 --> 01:11:47,750
look into the cameras. The

1556
01:11:47,750 --> 01:11:48,784
public is still not seen the

1557
01:11:48,784 --> 01:11:50,319
contract. The retention

1558
01:11:50,319 --> 01:11:51,987
settings, the sharing

1559
01:11:51,987 --> 01:11:52,554
configuration or the audit

1560
01:11:52,554 --> 01:11:55,324
logs. The situation in Florida

1561
01:11:55,324 --> 01:11:59,027
has recently changed. As

1562
01:11:59,027 --> 01:12:01,063
Stephen Miskin before me, the

1563
01:12:01,063 --> 01:12:02,064
Florida Department of

1564
01:12:02,064 --> 01:12:03,198
Transportation has revoked

1565
01:12:03,198 --> 01:12:04,066
license plate reader permits

1566
01:12:04,066 --> 01:12:06,235
on state roadways and ordered

1567
01:12:06,235 --> 01:12:10,873
those cameras removed. On

1568
01:12:10,873 --> 01:12:11,640
August 31st. Putnam County

1569
01:12:11,640 --> 01:12:14,543
Sheriff discontinued his own

1570
01:12:14,543 --> 01:12:15,310
program saying the technology

1571
01:12:15,310 --> 01:12:15,911
is advancing faster than the

1572
01:12:15,911 --> 01:12:19,648
laws that govern it. In Pasco

1573
01:12:19,648 --> 01:12:22,785
County. The sheriff is ending

1574
01:12:22,785 --> 01:12:23,385
the county roadway agreement

1575
01:12:23,385 --> 01:12:23,919
after the board withdrew

1576
01:12:23,919 --> 01:12:26,588
support. That last example is

1577
01:12:26,588 --> 01:12:30,325
the one that applies here. The

1578
01:12:30,325 --> 01:12:31,059
state’s action on state roads

1579
01:12:31,059 --> 01:12:32,027
does not remove the cameras on

1580
01:12:32,027 --> 01:12:33,829
Citrus County roads. That

1581
01:12:33,829 --> 01:12:37,065
decision is still yours. The

1582
01:12:37,065 --> 01:12:40,102
systems are not just hot list.

1583
01:12:40,102 --> 01:12:42,104
Alarms Motorola’s on materials

1584
01:12:42,104 --> 01:12:44,039
describes a searchable vehicle

1585
01:12:44,039 --> 01:12:45,774
location, history and access

1586
01:12:45,774 --> 01:12:48,277
to detections beyond a single

1587
01:12:48,277 --> 01:12:49,611
agencies. Cameras that is

1588
01:12:49,611 --> 01:12:51,647
continuous tracking of

1589
01:12:51,647 --> 01:12:52,181
ordinary people not only

1590
01:12:52,181 --> 01:12:55,050
wanted plates. No one is

1591
01:12:55,050 --> 01:12:56,785
saying that crime solving does

1592
01:12:56,785 --> 01:12:59,254
not matter. But usefulness is

1593
01:12:59,254 --> 01:12:59,955
not the only test for how much

1594
01:12:59,955 --> 01:13:02,090
surveillance power government

1595
01:13:02,090 --> 01:13:02,925
keeps. If it were, there would

1596
01:13:02,925 --> 01:13:05,694
be no limits at all. This

1597
01:13:05,694 --> 01:13:07,763
board cannot run the sheriff’s

1598
01:13:07,763 --> 01:13:09,598
office. You can decide what is

1599
01:13:09,598 --> 01:13:12,201
allowed on county roadways and

1600
01:13:12,201 --> 01:13:12,768
whether public money keeps

1601
01:13:12,768 --> 01:13:15,170
paying for this. I’m asking

1602
01:13:15,170 --> 01:13:17,906
this board for 3 things. First

1603
01:13:17,906 --> 01:13:19,708
to publish the Motorola

1604
01:13:19,708 --> 01:13:22,244
contract. It’s retention

1605
01:13:22,244 --> 01:13:22,811
settings. Its data sharing

1606
01:13:22,811 --> 01:13:25,614
configuration and its audit

1607
01:13:25,614 --> 01:13:27,649
records. Second to require

1608
01:13:27,649 --> 01:13:29,418
board approval before any

1609
01:13:29,418 --> 01:13:30,285
automatic license plate

1610
01:13:30,285 --> 01:13:32,254
readers are placed on county

1611
01:13:32,254 --> 01:13:32,821
owned property. Our county

1612
01:13:32,821 --> 01:13:34,923
maintained rights of way. So

1613
01:13:34,923 --> 01:13:35,490
the public has a chance to

1614
01:13:35,490 --> 01:13:39,361
oppose each one. Used that

1615
01:13:39,361 --> 01:13:41,430
authority and your budgetary

1616
01:13:41,430 --> 01:13:43,465
authority to end this program

1617
01:13:43,465 --> 01:13:44,099
and calling the sheriff to

1618
01:13:44,099 --> 01:13:44,666
remove the cameras that are

1619
01:13:44,666 --> 01:13:47,569
already up. Other Florida

1620
01:13:47,569 --> 01:13:49,605
officials are already

1621
01:13:49,605 --> 01:13:50,739
reversing course. So should

1622
01:13:50,739 --> 01:13:52,307
not leave county roads behind.

1623
01:13:52,307 --> 01:13:54,610
What did you find and will

1624
01:13:54,610 --> 01:13:57,746
this board act? Thank you.

1625
01:13:57,746 --> 01:14:09,124
>> Number 9.

1626
01:14:09,124 --> 01:14:11,226
>> Good afternoon. Jennifer

1627
01:14:11,226 --> 01:14:14,596
Grogan, Citrus County and I

1628
01:14:14,596 --> 01:14:18,233
was just here and sitting

1629
01:14:18,233 --> 01:14:19,668
behind me was Commissioner

1630
01:14:19,668 --> 01:14:20,969
Tomato. I say that right

1631
01:14:20,969 --> 01:14:22,938
D’Amato to me. His pride. Was

1632
01:14:22,938 --> 01:14:25,207
sitting behind me and I

1633
01:14:25,207 --> 01:14:27,542
listened to her whimper as

1634
01:14:27,542 --> 01:14:29,544
each one of you spoke about

1635
01:14:29,544 --> 01:14:30,812
her husband. I never met I

1636
01:14:30,812 --> 01:14:34,950
don’t know but I appreciate

1637
01:14:34,950 --> 01:14:37,219
that you guys have chosen to

1638
01:14:37,219 --> 01:14:38,987
name a building after him.

1639
01:14:38,987 --> 01:14:42,157
He’s a local guy and his

1640
01:14:42,157 --> 01:14:47,296
bride. Really appreciate it.

1641
01:14:47,296 --> 01:14:47,863
I’ve been asking this about

1642
01:14:47,863 --> 01:14:50,933
Mr. Charlie Kirk, and I’m sure

1643
01:14:50,933 --> 01:14:51,500
his bride and his children

1644
01:14:51,500 --> 01:14:54,036
would appreciate it. Also. If

1645
01:14:54,036 --> 01:14:54,603
you would do something for

1646
01:14:54,603 --> 01:14:57,906
him. He has left a legacy

1647
01:14:57,906 --> 01:15:05,681
behind he taught our children.

1648
01:15:05,681 --> 01:15:06,181
He’s taught her college

1649
01:15:06,181 --> 01:15:06,782
children and that’s where we

1650
01:15:06,782 --> 01:15:09,418
lose a lot of our children is

1651
01:15:09,418 --> 01:15:11,620
college get away from family

1652
01:15:11,620 --> 01:15:12,888
values. They get away from

1653
01:15:12,888 --> 01:15:13,488
what you taught him and they

1654
01:15:13,488 --> 01:15:16,191
go try their own thing. And

1655
01:15:16,191 --> 01:15:18,727
Charlie Kirk was in the

1656
01:15:18,727 --> 01:15:19,594
colleges, teaching values,

1657
01:15:19,594 --> 01:15:21,129
telling them not to steer to

1658
01:15:21,129 --> 01:15:22,864
the left or to the right to

1659
01:15:22,864 --> 01:15:27,336
keep moving forward and do the

1660
01:15:27,336 --> 01:15:28,203
right thing and he may be

1661
01:15:28,203 --> 01:15:28,770
helped with the president.

1662
01:15:28,770 --> 01:15:31,907
shock election. That a lot of

1663
01:15:31,907 --> 01:15:34,409
things, a lot of good. I

1664
01:15:34,409 --> 01:15:38,914
think. His children and his

1665
01:15:38,914 --> 01:15:41,016
bride deserve that respect

1666
01:15:41,016 --> 01:15:42,584
that you can do it locally.

1667
01:15:42,584 --> 01:15:44,086
Can you do it nationally? Are

1668
01:15:44,086 --> 01:15:50,892
you able? William? Because

1669
01:15:50,892 --> 01:15:54,830
it’s a little controversial.

1670
01:15:54,830 --> 01:15:56,965
You would please so many. The

1671
01:15:56,965 --> 01:15:58,066
handful that you would of

1672
01:15:58,066 --> 01:16:05,340
cent. Is the difference. And

1673
01:16:05,340 --> 01:16:06,141
he was a good man and his

1674
01:16:06,141 --> 01:16:06,775
pride and his children deserve

1675
01:16:06,775 --> 01:16:08,744
what you just gave.

1676
01:16:08,744 --> 01:16:11,546
Commissioner D models. Thank

1677
01:16:11,546 --> 01:16:13,582
you.

1678
01:16:13,582 --> 01:16:23,892
>> Number 10. Good afternoon.

1680
01:16:27,062 --> 01:16:30,966
life of Citrus County. I was

1681
01:16:30,966 --> 01:16:34,002
also like to see some for

1682
01:16:34,002 --> 01:16:34,636
minor in Charlie Kirk. I don’t

1683
01:16:34,636 --> 01:16:38,040
see why. There’s reluctance to

1684
01:16:38,040 --> 01:16:45,113
do that. I’m not even going to the library. Issue.

1685
01:16:45,113 --> 01:16:48,617
It seems like it’s it’s

1686
01:16:48,617 --> 01:16:49,551
terrible. I go in library

1687
01:16:49,551 --> 01:16:54,256
occasionally you can feel it

1688
01:16:54,256 --> 01:16:55,057
in the air, though. Leftward

slant of. The whole Why can’t

1690
01:17:03,498 --> 01:17:04,099
we honor Charlie Kirk? I like

1691
01:17:04,099 --> 01:17:05,567
to see a road named after him

1692
01:17:05,567 --> 01:17:13,308

01:17:15,677 --> 01:17:18,880
conservative and there’s a

1695
01:17:18,880 --> 01:17:19,981
strong Christian element here

1696
01:17:19,981 --> 01:17:21,583
stronger than most of Florida.

1697
01:17:21,583 --> 01:17:22,217
I think into what I first came

1698
01:17:22,217 --> 01:17:32,594
here. It was very strong. I

1699
01:17:32,594 --> 01:17:33,128
don’t I just I just don’t

1700
01:17:33,128 --> 01:17:34,796
understand why this hasn’t

1701
01:17:34,796 --> 01:17:35,897
been done about Mister LeBron.

1702
01:17:35,897 --> 01:17:37,399
All is said has been done so

1703
01:17:37,399 --> 01:17:37,999
many other place in Florida.

1704
01:17:37,999 --> 01:17:38,533
Why can’t we do something

1705
01:17:38,533 --> 01:17:42,170
here? Rename look and to

1706
01:17:42,170 --> 01:17:44,606
highway after him make a

1707
01:17:44,606 --> 01:17:45,240
strong statement. There’s lots

1708
01:17:45,240 --> 01:17:47,742
of issues coming. Lee County

1709
01:17:47,742 --> 01:17:52,380
is. Approving the there County

1710
01:17:52,380 --> 01:17:52,881
Commission, I guess, is

1711
01:17:52,881 --> 01:17:58,053
approving a thanks. A lot of

1712
01:17:58,053 --> 01:17:59,921
land for a mosque. I hope we

1713
01:17:59,921 --> 01:18:00,689
don’t see But we are good

1714
01:18:00,689 --> 01:18:01,256
going to be faced with that

1715
01:18:01,256 --> 01:18:04,059
issue here. Our countries

1716
01:18:04,059 --> 01:18:07,195
being turned. Communist in

1717
01:18:07,195 --> 01:18:10,966
Muslim. And Christians are

1718
01:18:10,966 --> 01:18:13,034
being left on the wayside. not

1719
01:18:13,034 --> 01:18:18,273
going well. Goods for a good

1720
01:18:18,273 --> 01:18:18,773
starting point would be

1721
01:18:18,773 --> 01:18:21,443
honoring Charlie. I hope

1722
01:18:21,443 --> 01:18:23,912
you’ll consider that. Please.

1723
01:18:23,912 --> 01:18:25,680
Thank Thank you.

1724
01:18:25,680 --> 01:18:37,392
>> Number 11. Mr. Bryant and

1725
01:18:37,392 --> 01:18:39,094
you’re on your T-shirt today.

1726
01:18:39,094 --> 01:18:41,396
I want to you know, you know,

1727
01:18:41,396 --> 01:18:41,997
not just the braces. So just

1728
01:18:41,997 --> 01:18:42,998
gonna go with it.

1729
01:18:42,998 --> 01:18:45,934
>> So 5 minutes for such a

1730
01:18:45,934 --> 01:18:47,068
cider. Kris Bryant against

1731
01:18:47,068 --> 01:18:47,936
couple things for us today at

1732
01:18:47,936 --> 01:18:51,106
3 different Number one,

1733
01:18:51,106 --> 01:18:53,074
transparency, public records

1734
01:18:53,074 --> 01:18:55,010
request for emails in

1735
01:18:55,010 --> 01:18:57,846
particular take forever.

1736
01:18:57,846 --> 01:18:58,680
there’s Pastor Potter County

1737
01:18:58,680 --> 01:18:59,281
does a policy to where all of

1738
01:18:59,281 --> 01:19:00,615
the commissioner emails are

1739
01:19:00,615 --> 01:19:01,583
posted publicly.

1740
01:19:01,583 --> 01:19:03,051
>> I just looked at it today.

1741
01:19:03,051 --> 01:19:03,618
The e-mails that were sent

1742
01:19:03,618 --> 01:19:04,219
today are on the portal. You

1743
01:19:04,219 --> 01:19:04,819
can be there with pretty much

1744
01:19:04,819 --> 01:19:07,556
as they come in. Someone asked

1745
01:19:07,556 --> 01:19:09,724
you guys to do more

1746
01:19:09,724 --> 01:19:10,425
transparent process for public

1747
01:19:10,425 --> 01:19:10,892
records for the most

1748
01:19:10,892 --> 01:19:11,426
meticulous on, though the

1749
01:19:11,426 --> 01:19:13,495
emails are public record. We

1750
01:19:13,495 --> 01:19:15,497
should have to ask for the

1751
01:19:15,497 --> 01:19:17,632
necessarily. So yes, can

1752
01:19:17,632 --> 01:19:18,200
create a process to make it

1753
01:19:18,200 --> 01:19:19,000
more transparent, easier for

1754
01:19:19,000 --> 01:19:20,869
people to find emails. And

1755
01:19:20,869 --> 01:19:21,536
that would also reduce the

1756
01:19:21,536 --> 01:19:22,671
burden on staff to have to

1757
01:19:22,671 --> 01:19:23,271
provide all these e-mails the

1758
01:19:23,271 --> 01:19:25,106
research and all those things.

1759
01:19:25,106 --> 01:19:27,175
So asking for us to look into

1760
01:19:27,175 --> 01:19:28,476
that option for an online

1761
01:19:28,476 --> 01:19:29,277
portal of sorts for email

1762
01:19:29,277 --> 01:19:34,115
searches going to public

1763
01:19:34,115 --> 01:19:34,683
records. I sent each of you

1764
01:19:34,683 --> 01:19:35,283
has records request on July

1765
01:19:35,283 --> 01:19:39,120
15th. 55 days ago, part of

1766
01:19:39,120 --> 01:19:39,888
that request was social media

1767
01:19:39,888 --> 01:19:40,455
stuff. Part of that request

1768
01:19:40,455 --> 01:19:42,791
was phone logs and things like

1769
01:19:42,791 --> 01:19:45,760
that to date. One person fill

1770
01:19:45,760 --> 01:19:46,828
that completely today, 2

1771
01:19:46,828 --> 01:19:47,362
people told me they were

1772
01:19:47,362 --> 01:19:49,664
working on their call, a

1773
01:19:49,664 --> 01:19:50,765
portion of That was 2 to 3

1774
01:19:50,765 --> 01:19:51,333
weeks ago and haven’t heard

1775
01:19:51,333 --> 01:19:54,369
updates on that. One person

1776
01:19:54,369 --> 01:19:56,004
has an even get update

1777
01:19:56,004 --> 01:19:58,540
anything and then the other

1778
01:19:58,540 --> 01:20:00,942
person kind of give me a

1779
01:20:00,942 --> 01:20:01,610
reason why they couldn’t

1780
01:20:01,610 --> 01:20:02,244
fulfill its, which isn’t based

1781
01:20:02,244 --> 01:20:06,014
on state law. and you guys, a

1782
01:20:06,014 --> 01:20:08,650
state law on these are not

1783
01:20:08,650 --> 01:20:09,651
options. don’t have an option

1784
01:20:09,651 --> 01:20:11,052
to ignore the rest request.

1785
01:20:11,052 --> 01:20:12,520
You have to fill the request.

1786
01:20:12,520 --> 01:20:13,121
the issue that you guys have

1787
01:20:13,121 --> 01:20:13,655
here is you guys use your

1788
01:20:13,655 --> 01:20:14,756
personal stuff and vices.

1789
01:20:14,756 --> 01:20:15,323
Therefore, you guys are the

1790
01:20:15,323 --> 01:20:17,859
custody of those records. The

1791
01:20:17,859 --> 01:20:18,460
reason I ask you for them is

1792
01:20:18,460 --> 01:20:19,961
the county doesn’t access to

1793
01:20:19,961 --> 01:20:21,129
this. So I asked you guys as

1794
01:20:21,129 --> 01:20:22,597
custody records for those and

1795
01:20:22,597 --> 01:20:26,301
today we haven’t gotten those

1796
01:20:26,301 --> 01:20:27,502
further on July. 21st the said

1797
01:20:27,502 --> 01:20:29,404
the same request to the county

1798
01:20:29,404 --> 01:20:31,473
administrator. I got those

1799
01:20:31,473 --> 01:20:33,074
requesting so they fill them

1800
01:20:33,074 --> 01:20:33,675
today. So you’re on employee

1801
01:20:33,675 --> 01:20:34,209
has been you guys to that

1802
01:20:34,209 --> 01:20:35,543
nice. And week afterwards so

1803
01:20:35,543 --> 01:20:37,646
they Mr. Howard, for doing

1804
01:20:37,646 --> 01:20:39,914
that they want to talk about I

1805
01:20:39,914 --> 01:20:42,617
think we need to revisit the

1806
01:20:42,617 --> 01:20:43,618
policy of staff and the

1807
01:20:43,618 --> 01:20:44,185
commissioner communications

1808
01:20:44,185 --> 01:20:47,422
and things like that.

1809
01:20:47,422 --> 01:20:47,922
Recently. I found that

1810
01:20:47,922 --> 01:20:49,057
commissioners are using staff

1811
01:20:49,057 --> 01:20:53,161
too compiled data. One of the

1812
01:20:53,161 --> 01:20:54,262
request providing a list of

1813
01:20:54,262 --> 01:20:56,998
all the voted for any

1814
01:20:56,998 --> 01:20:58,867
development projects. I can’t

1815
01:20:58,867 --> 01:20:59,601
think of any county reason

1816
01:20:59,601 --> 01:21:00,669
that somebody would be that

1817
01:21:00,669 --> 01:21:01,303
information. Staff’s been time

1818
01:21:01,303 --> 01:21:02,604
to compile that list and then

1819
01:21:02,604 --> 01:21:04,306
provide that list of that

1820
01:21:04,306 --> 01:21:06,374
person. Somebody else recently

1821
01:21:06,374 --> 01:21:08,143
has been using staff to create

1822
01:21:08,143 --> 01:21:09,711
a presentation that they’re

1823
01:21:09,711 --> 01:21:11,246
going separately. That’s not a

1824
01:21:11,246 --> 01:21:11,846
county presentation and

1825
01:21:11,846 --> 01:21:12,814
they’re using staff time and

1826
01:21:12,814 --> 01:21:13,348
resources to compile the

1827
01:21:13,348 --> 01:21:14,549
presentation for them and

1828
01:21:14,549 --> 01:21:16,584
they’re going to staff to get

1829
01:21:16,584 --> 01:21:19,821
that done. So again, a

1830
01:21:19,821 --> 01:21:20,455
question why you guys are able

1831
01:21:20,455 --> 01:21:21,356
to do that. Why you guys are

1832
01:21:21,356 --> 01:21:24,526
using staff resources for your

1833
01:21:24,526 --> 01:21:26,061
personal presentations or

1834
01:21:26,061 --> 01:21:26,594
personal information. The

1835
01:21:26,594 --> 01:21:30,131
cheese for whatever reason and

1836
01:21:30,131 --> 01:21:30,699
then why the ministrations

1837
01:21:30,699 --> 01:21:32,033
line, you guys at that access

1838
01:21:32,033 --> 01:21:33,068
because the administrative

1839
01:21:33,068 --> 01:21:33,668
regulation says that you guys

1840
01:21:33,668 --> 01:21:35,370
have to go the administrative

1841
01:21:35,370 --> 01:21:37,272
administrator than determines

1842
01:21:37,272 --> 01:21:37,872
whether it’s a valid request

1843
01:21:37,872 --> 01:21:40,809
that sends out to staff and

1844
01:21:40,809 --> 01:21:41,409
not for us to go individually

1845
01:21:41,409 --> 01:21:41,976
to the staff member of your

1846
01:21:41,976 --> 01:21:43,478
choice to get that done. So

1847
01:21:43,478 --> 01:21:44,079
this couple things I want you

1848
01:21:44,079 --> 01:21:51,953
think about Number 12.

1849
01:21:51,953 --> 01:21:52,821
>> So anyone else that would

1850
01:21:52,821 --> 01:21:53,421
like to speak at open to the

1851
01:21:53,421 --> 01:21:57,892
public. Okay. With that will

1852
01:21:57,892 --> 01:22:00,295
close the open to the public

1853
01:22:00,295 --> 01:22:02,430
If you have anything.

1854
01:22:02,430 --> 01:22:03,965
Commissioner Kerik.

1855
01:22:03,965 --> 01:22:07,569
>> First of all, the library,

1856
01:22:07,569 --> 01:22:10,638
in my opinion. And as I have

1857
01:22:10,638 --> 01:22:14,709
stated several occasions. Any

1858
01:22:14,709 --> 01:22:17,178
displays in the library should

1859
01:22:17,178 --> 01:22:19,714
be about our citizens. Our

1860
01:22:19,714 --> 01:22:21,983
students, our citizens, our

1861
01:22:21,983 --> 01:22:25,487
upcoming events. And that’s

1862
01:22:25,487 --> 01:22:26,488
what we should be promoting in

1863
01:22:26,488 --> 01:22:27,589
our library, education about

1864
01:22:27,589 --> 01:22:29,791
what we as Citrus County

1865
01:22:29,791 --> 01:22:32,894
people are doing. It’s nice

1866
01:22:32,894 --> 01:22:33,661
that you want to bring

1867
01:22:33,661 --> 01:22:38,266
somebody else in here and have

1868
01:22:38,266 --> 01:22:40,068
somebody else that’s fine.

1869
01:22:40,068 --> 01:22:40,769
Other do what they want their

1870
01:22:40,769 --> 01:22:41,336
other counties. They’re not

1871
01:22:41,336 --> 01:22:45,373
Citrus County. I don’t like

1872
01:22:45,373 --> 01:22:45,974
the fact that, you know,

1873
01:22:45,974 --> 01:22:46,574
everybody comes up and says,

1874
01:22:46,574 --> 01:22:48,376
well, I’m a conservative. A

1875
01:22:48,376 --> 01:22:50,879
conservative can be. Anything

1876
01:22:50,879 --> 01:22:53,248
it wants to be. At least

1877
01:22:53,248 --> 01:22:56,084
that’s what I’m finding out.

1878
01:22:56,084 --> 01:22:57,385
You can be a financial

1879
01:22:57,385 --> 01:22:59,320
conservative. You can be

1880
01:22:59,320 --> 01:23:01,689
whatever conservative. It’s

1881
01:23:01,689 --> 01:23:05,593
not. To me. I’m a

1882
01:23:05,593 --> 01:23:08,229
conservative. But I do have

1883
01:23:08,229 --> 01:23:09,531
some of the tendencies and

1884
01:23:09,531 --> 01:23:12,300
it’s a good thing. Because

1885
01:23:12,300 --> 01:23:14,169
people need to be able to look

1886
01:23:14,169 --> 01:23:16,538
at a situation and judge it on

1887
01:23:16,538 --> 01:23:20,041
its merit. And that’s what I

1888
01:23:20,041 --> 01:23:22,310
try and do. And I have told

1889
01:23:22,310 --> 01:23:25,113
the library board at least

1890
01:23:25,113 --> 01:23:30,118
twice if not 3 times the

1891
01:23:30,118 --> 01:23:31,219
library displays should be

1892
01:23:31,219 --> 01:23:35,223
about our citizens works. Our

1893
01:23:35,223 --> 01:23:36,224
kids staff are kids displays

1894
01:23:36,224 --> 01:23:38,993
are schools step what’s going

1895
01:23:38,993 --> 01:23:43,264
on in our county? And the

1896
01:23:43,264 --> 01:23:43,932
different groups that we have

1897
01:23:43,932 --> 01:23:44,466
in our get we have enough

1898
01:23:44,466 --> 01:23:45,533
troops in our county. doing

1899
01:23:45,533 --> 01:23:48,803
things. You know, save our

1900
01:23:48,803 --> 01:23:50,939
water should be out in our

1901
01:23:50,939 --> 01:23:51,506
thing. Okay. We should have

1902
01:23:51,506 --> 01:23:54,209
too far out there. We anything

1903
01:23:54,209 --> 01:23:55,543
and everything has to do with

1904
01:23:55,543 --> 01:23:59,981
our county. Another thing that

1905
01:23:59,981 --> 01:24:03,985
I was listening to. Was the

1906
01:24:03,985 --> 01:24:07,155
fact that using staff or

1907
01:24:07,155 --> 01:24:11,960
resources and presentations. I

1908
01:24:11,960 --> 01:24:12,560
don’t know that anybody else,

1909
01:24:12,560 --> 01:24:13,361
but I don’t use the staff or

1910
01:24:13,361 --> 01:24:15,897
resources. Your presentations.

1911
01:24:15,897 --> 01:24:18,099
My job is to work with. Mr.

1912
01:24:18,099 --> 01:24:20,969
Howard. And this Lynn and

1913
01:24:20,969 --> 01:24:23,505
those are the 2 staff that eye

1914
01:24:23,505 --> 01:24:25,907
I’m allowed to work unless I

1915
01:24:25,907 --> 01:24:28,977
get special permission and I

1916
01:24:28,977 --> 01:24:29,544
should shouldn’t have to be

1917
01:24:29,544 --> 01:24:33,481
asking our staff for anything.

1918
01:24:33,481 --> 01:24:34,449
I should ask, Mr. Howard, to

1919
01:24:34,449 --> 01:24:35,049
get me whatever information I

1920
01:24:35,049 --> 01:24:38,553
need. And that’s exactly what

1921
01:24:38,553 --> 01:24:41,289
I do. So when I hear that

1922
01:24:41,289 --> 01:24:41,890
you’re finding out that other

1923
01:24:41,890 --> 01:24:43,091
people are using our staff to

1924
01:24:43,091 --> 01:24:47,595
me. That’s wrong. And I try to

1925
01:24:47,595 --> 01:24:48,229
follow the rules. When I first

1926
01:24:48,229 --> 01:24:48,830
started the first year I was

1927
01:24:48,830 --> 01:24:52,333
in Everybody told me when I

1928
01:24:52,333 --> 01:24:56,971
was wrong. Everybody up here

1929
01:24:56,971 --> 01:24:57,872
told me he can’t do it, that

1930
01:24:57,872 --> 01:24:58,439
we can’t do We can’t do it

1931
01:24:58,439 --> 01:24:59,841
that way. You have to follow

1932
01:24:59,841 --> 01:25:03,278
the rules. Well, the rules are

1933
01:25:03,278 --> 01:25:05,647
for everybody in this county.

1934
01:25:05,647 --> 01:25:09,017
Even other 4 myself. So the

1935
01:25:09,017 --> 01:25:13,521
thing is. I try to do things

1936
01:25:13,521 --> 01:25:14,722
that are right now when it

1937
01:25:14,722 --> 01:25:17,225
comes to cameras for the cars.

1938
01:25:17,225 --> 01:25:21,262
Cameras in. Parking lot are so

1939
01:25:21,262 --> 01:25:23,731
that there isn’t stealing and

1940
01:25:23,731 --> 01:25:24,299
if it is stealing, it helps

1941
01:25:24,299 --> 01:25:28,570
the police. And that’s all

1942
01:25:28,570 --> 01:25:30,738
it’s for. And I cannot see

1943
01:25:30,738 --> 01:25:31,506
asking any this to take down

1944
01:25:31,506 --> 01:25:34,375
cameras. Because I want to be

1945
01:25:34,375 --> 01:25:38,780
safe. If I am out at night and

1946
01:25:38,780 --> 01:25:39,647
I get somebody comes over and

1947
01:25:39,647 --> 01:25:41,649
tries to rob me tries to do

1948
01:25:41,649 --> 01:25:44,385
something to me. I wanted to

1949
01:25:44,385 --> 01:25:49,791
be on camera if possible. Now

1950
01:25:49,791 --> 01:25:51,259
I’m glad you have your ideas

1951
01:25:51,259 --> 01:25:55,229
about no cameras, no cameras, urge it the last 3

1952
01:25:55,229 --> 01:25:55,830
weeks one to 3 times. You’ve

1953
01:25:55,830 --> 01:25:58,032
been up there. And it’s nice

1954
01:25:58,032 --> 01:25:59,701
that the 2 of you have your

1955
01:25:59,701 --> 01:26:01,769
unit. My biggest question why

1956
01:26:01,769 --> 01:26:03,905
are you so worried are so

1957
01:26:03,905 --> 01:26:05,940
afraid of these cameras? Is it

1958
01:26:05,940 --> 01:26:07,675
because you’re maybe going to

1959
01:26:07,675 --> 01:26:08,276
do something or your friends

1960
01:26:08,276 --> 01:26:13,348
are doing something. Okay. So my question is 2 weeks from

1961
01:26:13,348 --> 01:26:13,948
now when you come back or if

1962
01:26:13,948 --> 01:26:15,817
you stay for them to me, could

1963
01:26:15,817 --> 01:26:16,417
you answer that question when

1964
01:26:16,417 --> 01:26:17,752
you come back? I’d appreciate

1965
01:26:17,752 --> 01:26:25,526
that. I am very proud of you.

1966
01:26:25,526 --> 01:26:27,895
It takes a lot when I know how

1967
01:26:27,895 --> 01:26:32,033
much you hate dogs to go up to

1968
01:26:32,033 --> 01:26:34,902
job because because I see you

1969
01:26:34,902 --> 01:26:35,703
it takes a lot and I’m very

1970
01:26:35,703 --> 01:26:36,304
proud of and thank you very

1971
01:26:36,304 --> 01:26:38,206
much helping another citizen

1972
01:26:38,206 --> 01:26:41,142
in our county. That’s what we

1973
01:26:41,142 --> 01:26:43,344
need citizens help each other.

1974
01:26:43,344 --> 01:26:45,246
And that’s what cities

1975
01:26:45,246 --> 01:26:45,747
counties about citizens

1976
01:26:45,747 --> 01:26:48,483
helping each other. So that’s

1977
01:26:48,483 --> 01:26:49,050
all I have to say for this

1978
01:26:49,050 --> 01:26:51,019
time.

1979
01:26:51,019 --> 01:26:54,822
>> Thank Notes. Commissioner

1980
01:26:54,822 --> 01:26:57,558
Davis.

1981
01:26:57,558 --> 01:27:01,295
>> Mr. Howard. You saw the

1982
01:27:01,295 --> 01:27:04,666
video. And you asked where it

1983
01:27:04,666 --> 01:27:09,137
came from. Because I had

1984
01:27:09,137 --> 01:27:09,937
already gone to you and ask

1985
01:27:09,937 --> 01:27:12,040
for miles for video background

1986
01:27:12,040 --> 01:27:12,874
right? And you said, did you

1987
01:27:12,874 --> 01:27:14,575
do this? And I said, I did. I

1988
01:27:14,575 --> 01:27:18,546
wrote it. I time stamped it. I

1989
01:27:18,546 --> 01:27:19,814
created a very specific list

1990
01:27:19,814 --> 01:27:21,549
of video clips to Poland,

1991
01:27:21,549 --> 01:27:23,651
stitched together. I did a

1992
01:27:23,651 --> 01:27:24,252
vast portion of the work that

1993
01:27:24,252 --> 01:27:30,625
I not. Yes. And you are fully

1994
01:27:30,625 --> 01:27:32,860
aware of the request and you

1995
01:27:32,860 --> 01:27:33,428
blessed to correct correct

1996
01:27:33,428 --> 01:27:37,565
cricket. The thing we hear

1997
01:27:37,565 --> 01:27:40,468
most about. It’s how angry we

1998
01:27:40,468 --> 01:27:43,705
are about growth. And the need

1999
01:27:43,705 --> 01:27:49,110
to preserve land. Only a

2000
01:27:49,110 --> 01:27:49,677
certain super blogger could

2001
01:27:49,677 --> 01:27:52,346
find a way to put on that

2002
01:27:52,346 --> 01:27:57,318
effort to conserve land. So he

2003
01:27:57,318 --> 01:27:58,586
cast aspersions on Facebook. I

2004
01:27:58,586 --> 01:27:59,187
don’t go on Facebook anymore,

2005
01:27:59,187 --> 01:28:02,490
but I was made aware of it

2006
01:28:02,490 --> 01:28:03,658
that she wondering if the

2007
01:28:03,658 --> 01:28:04,258
county taxpayers paid for my

2008
01:28:04,258 --> 01:28:08,996
trip to Denver. You who has

2009
01:28:08,996 --> 01:28:09,530
been all the way down the

2010
01:28:09,530 --> 01:28:11,466
rabbit hole of every single

2011
01:28:11,466 --> 01:28:12,100
cone ordinance. We have knows

2012
01:28:12,100 --> 01:28:14,368
doggone good and well that I

2013
01:28:14,368 --> 01:28:16,370
would have had to ask

2014
01:28:16,370 --> 01:28:18,206
permission from my colleagues

2015
01:28:18,206 --> 01:28:18,806
to get tax dollars to pay for

2016
01:28:18,806 --> 01:28:21,876
the trip to Denver. Did I know

2017
01:28:21,876 --> 01:28:22,510
I didn’t because I paid for it

2018
01:28:22,510 --> 01:28:26,581
myself. This is a huge honor

2019
01:28:26,581 --> 01:28:28,382
for Citrus County to be asked

2020
01:28:28,382 --> 01:28:30,551
to present at the National

2021
01:28:30,551 --> 01:28:31,352
Conference on Land

2022
01:28:31,352 --> 01:28:35,089
Conservation. It’s huge. And

2023
01:28:35,089 --> 01:28:36,624
we are we celebrating a no.

2024
01:28:36,624 --> 01:28:39,427
We’re attacking that. I find

2025
01:28:39,427 --> 01:28:42,897
that frankly. Ludacris and

2026
01:28:42,897 --> 01:28:46,567
Rick reprehensible. What is it

2027
01:28:46,567 --> 01:28:48,569
going to give us what is

2028
01:28:48,569 --> 01:28:51,572
what’s in it for us? Number

2029
01:28:51,572 --> 01:28:53,608
one and then attend the

2030
01:28:53,608 --> 01:28:54,175
conference on going to find

2031
01:28:54,175 --> 01:28:55,676
out more about land

2032
01:28:55,676 --> 01:28:56,344
conservation and how to get

2033
01:28:56,344 --> 01:28:56,878
this truly good going in.

2034
01:28:56,878 --> 01:29:00,414
Citrus County. Again on my my

2035
01:29:00,414 --> 01:29:06,354
own time. ’09. We are going to

2036
01:29:06,354 --> 01:29:08,089
present to we’re going to be a

2037
01:29:08,089 --> 01:29:08,589
converse. I want to say

2038
01:29:08,589 --> 01:29:11,159
there’s about 1500 people

2039
01:29:11,159 --> 01:29:11,826
there. We are presenting I was

2040
01:29:11,826 --> 01:29:14,195
told to between 50 and 75

2041
01:29:14,195 --> 01:29:17,665
people. We That’s an

2042
01:29:17,665 --> 01:29:18,266
opportunity for us to get out

2043
01:29:18,266 --> 01:29:20,134
in front of people as Citrus

2044
01:29:20,134 --> 01:29:20,668
County for both economic

2045
01:29:20,668 --> 01:29:23,871
development and tourism

2046
01:29:23,871 --> 01:29:25,773
attraction purposes. I also

2047
01:29:25,773 --> 01:29:28,810
thought this video that miles

2048
01:29:28,810 --> 01:29:29,310
so brilliantly stitched

2049
01:29:29,310 --> 01:29:33,214
together, the clips for. I can

2050
01:29:33,214 --> 01:29:35,183
do a different voice over and

2051
01:29:35,183 --> 01:29:36,818
use that digs in repurpose

2052
01:29:36,818 --> 01:29:37,351
that video and multiple

2053
01:29:37,351 --> 01:29:38,886
different ways to benefits

2054
01:29:38,886 --> 01:29:42,056
this county, including land

2055
01:29:42,056 --> 01:29:44,091
cotman most particularly land

2056
01:29:44,091 --> 01:29:46,027
conservation. But you know

2057
01:29:46,027 --> 01:29:46,661
what? It could also be done as

2058
01:29:46,661 --> 01:29:47,962
a recruitment tool because

2059
01:29:47,962 --> 01:29:48,596
businesses want to move here.

2060
01:29:48,596 --> 01:29:49,197
If they think employees want

2061
01:29:49,197 --> 01:29:50,598
to live here. And you know

2062
01:29:50,598 --> 01:29:52,934
what? I actually I’m not a

2063
01:29:52,934 --> 01:29:57,238
crier. I was leak in. Tears

2064
01:29:57,238 --> 01:29:59,106
was are not at the end of that

2065
01:29:59,106 --> 01:30:00,975
video. I was I said I am so

2066
01:30:00,975 --> 01:30:01,676
d*** proud to be from this

2067
01:30:01,676 --> 01:30:05,880
county. And then certain

2068
01:30:05,880 --> 01:30:06,447
people make me wonder that

2069
01:30:06,447 --> 01:30:17,058
bout that. Anyone

2070
01:30:17,058 --> 01:30:25,867
>> Move on one.

2071
01:30:25,867 --> 01:30:26,734

comment. Any further board

2076
01:30:36,244 --> 01:30:39,213

Kerik. Any public comments.

2083
01:30:55,596 --> 01:30:59,800
>> Chicago, Young for this.

2084
01:30:59,800 --> 01:31:01,936
I’m a little confused about

2085
01:31:01,936 --> 01:31:04,205
this one. The biggest thing

2086
01:31:04,205 --> 01:31:05,773
missing from this shortage end

2087
01:31:05,773 --> 01:31:08,442
this description is the reason

2088
01:31:08,442 --> 01:31:09,577
why migration is necessary for

2089
01:31:09,577 --> 01:31:15,082
12,000. study to doing the

2090
01:31:15,082 --> 01:31:17,385
$12,500 like a little bit more

2091
01:31:17,385 --> 01:31:19,353
information on We are in 2

2092
01:31:19,353 --> 01:31:20,121
administrative services

2093
01:31:20,121 --> 01:31:22,323
agreement with Florida Blue

2094
01:31:22,323 --> 01:31:22,924
for self-funded Health Plan.

2095
01:31:22,924 --> 01:31:25,393
Administration.

2096
01:31:25,393 --> 01:31:27,695
>> Okay. Sorry. Okay. Thank

2097
01:31:27,695 --> 01:31:33,334
you. You’re welcome. Anyone

2098
01:31:33,334 --> 01:31:34,402
Any further board discussion?

2099
01:31:34,402 --> 01:31:40,741
me. Commissioner base.

2100
01:31:40,741 --> 01:31:41,842
>> Actually, this is all about

2101
01:31:41,842 --> 01:31:44,912
you to the 3 for Andy I want

2102
01:31:44,912 --> 01:31:45,913
to start out by saying I want

2103
01:31:45,913 --> 01:31:47,748
to be very clear. That’s not

2104
01:31:47,748 --> 01:31:49,317
about taking health insurance

2105
01:31:49,317 --> 01:31:50,084
away from our employees are

2106
01:31:50,084 --> 01:31:52,019
reducing the quality of their

2107
01:31:52,019 --> 01:31:53,921
benefits. But we have an

2108
01:31:53,921 --> 01:31:55,623
obligation to provide a

2109
01:31:55,623 --> 01:31:56,123
competitive the big bid

2110
01:31:56,123 --> 01:31:57,792
package and take care of our

2111
01:31:57,792 --> 01:32:00,628
employees. We are self-insured

2112
01:32:00,628 --> 01:32:02,697
and ultimately every dollar of

2113
01:32:02,697 --> 01:32:04,598
claims as our dollars. So in

2114
01:32:04,598 --> 01:32:05,666
2018 car insurance costs was

2115
01:32:05,666 --> 01:32:10,404
approximately 3.7, 5 million.

2116
01:32:10,404 --> 01:32:10,938
In your 26. The budget is

2117
01:32:10,938 --> 01:32:12,640
approximately 12 Million.

2118
01:32:12,640 --> 01:32:13,708
That’s 3 times more than it

2119
01:32:13,708 --> 01:32:17,578
was 8 years ago. And 26 alone

2120
01:32:17,578 --> 01:32:18,412
it representative 21%

2121
01:32:18,412 --> 01:32:19,380
increase. And today we’re

2122
01:32:19,380 --> 01:32:19,880
asking for another 10%

2123
01:32:19,880 --> 01:32:23,851
increase. At some point,

2124
01:32:23,851 --> 01:32:24,852
simply increasing the premium

2125
01:32:24,852 --> 01:32:27,521
every year is not a cost

2126
01:32:27,521 --> 01:32:29,724
management strategy. We

2127
01:32:29,724 --> 01:32:30,358
established an employee clinic

2128
01:32:30,358 --> 01:32:34,028
in 2013, specifically in an

2129
01:32:34,028 --> 01:32:36,764
effort to reduce health costs.

2130
01:32:36,764 --> 01:32:37,698
Yet when we renew that

2131
01:32:37,698 --> 01:32:40,234
contract, I did not see it

2132
01:32:40,234 --> 01:32:41,369
independently verified and also showing that

2133
01:32:41,369 --> 01:32:45,106
clinic cost all in and what it

2134
01:32:45,106 --> 01:32:45,740
actually saves the plan. And I

2135
01:32:45,740 --> 01:32:48,576
still want to see that. Which

2136
01:32:48,576 --> 01:32:49,310
I brought up and it was agreed

2137
01:32:49,310 --> 01:32:53,481
to renew it. I also want to

2138
01:32:53,481 --> 01:32:55,483
understand why we’re entering

2139
01:32:55,483 --> 01:32:56,650
into another long-term

2140
01:32:56,650 --> 01:32:57,218
relations relationship with

2141
01:32:57,218 --> 01:33:00,588
Florida blue without seen a

2142
01:33:00,588 --> 01:33:02,256
competitive market analysis.

2143
01:33:02,256 --> 01:33:02,757
If we haven’t been this

2144
01:33:02,757 --> 01:33:05,126
business, why not? And

2145
01:33:05,126 --> 01:33:06,227
finally, I think we need to

2146
01:33:06,227 --> 01:33:08,229
rethink the entire philosophy

2147
01:33:08,229 --> 01:33:09,997
of this plan. I am not

2148
01:33:09,997 --> 01:33:11,198
suggesting that we penalize

2149
01:33:11,198 --> 01:33:12,767
someone because they have

2150
01:33:12,767 --> 01:33:13,367
cancer, diabetes, high blood

2151
01:33:13,367 --> 01:33:14,935
pressure or any other medical

2152
01:33:14,935 --> 01:33:17,038
condition. But I do not

2153
01:33:17,038 --> 01:33:18,506
believe there should be

2154
01:33:18,506 --> 01:33:19,073
responsibility attached to

2155
01:33:19,073 --> 01:33:19,673
receiving a very substantial

2156
01:33:19,673 --> 01:33:23,744
tax funded. Health benefit. We

2157
01:33:23,744 --> 01:33:25,212
should investigate the legally

2158
01:33:25,212 --> 01:33:25,880
compliant wellness and help

2159
01:33:25,880 --> 01:33:27,548
engagement program where

2160
01:33:27,548 --> 01:33:30,051
employees who participate in

2161
01:33:30,051 --> 01:33:31,485
preventive and management of

2162
01:33:31,485 --> 01:33:33,621
their health and received the

2163
01:33:33,621 --> 01:33:34,488
county contribution while

2164
01:33:34,488 --> 01:33:35,423
employees who choose not to

2165
01:33:35,423 --> 01:33:36,023
participate, contribute more

2166
01:33:36,023 --> 01:33:39,927
to their coverage. There are a

2167
01:33:39,927 --> 01:33:42,830
couple things I noticed in

2168
01:33:42,830 --> 01:33:43,431
that we’re raising our limit

2169
01:33:43,431 --> 01:33:48,069
from 200,000 to 300,000. So I

2170
01:33:48,069 --> 01:33:49,603
would like to know what that

2171
01:33:49,603 --> 01:33:54,141
means to the county. On our

2172
01:33:54,141 --> 01:33:54,742
stop loss, what that’s going

2173
01:33:54,742 --> 01:34:00,848
to cost us. The 26 27 premium

2174
01:34:00,848 --> 01:34:02,116
sumption. There’s a 10% base

2175
01:34:02,116 --> 01:34:07,688
increase. Are projected

2176
01:34:07,688 --> 01:34:10,558
disbursements are 16.5, 6,

2177
01:34:10,558 --> 01:34:12,093
2 Million. The 27 Health

2178
01:34:12,093 --> 01:34:12,626
Insurance Fund. A 17.3, 3

2179
01:34:12,626 --> 01:34:16,430
million. The clinic retried on

2180
01:34:16,430 --> 01:34:18,165
a valuation. There’s been

2181
01:34:18,165 --> 01:34:19,433
nothing that clinic is costing

2182
01:34:19,433 --> 01:34:22,503
us. 1.4, 5 million. So I have

2183
01:34:22,503 --> 01:34:27,074
a lot of questions about this

2184
01:34:27,074 --> 01:34:28,109
and I just don’t think that

2185
01:34:28,109 --> 01:34:29,009
this for me, this isn’t

2186
01:34:29,009 --> 01:34:29,610
something that we should just

2187
01:34:29,610 --> 01:34:33,914
automatically approve. Anyone

2188
01:34:33,914 --> 01:34:39,220
Yeah. Commissioner there. When

2189
01:34:39,220 --> 01:34:41,055
I read this, I I first came on

2190
01:34:41,055 --> 01:34:41,989
board. I wanted to know why we

2191
01:34:41,989 --> 01:34:42,556
weren’t shelf and and they

2192
01:34:42,556 --> 01:34:44,658
should just work.

2193
01:34:44,658 --> 01:34:45,259
>> And this contract is for 2

2194
01:34:45,259 --> 01:34:49,964
years. That gives 2 years. For

2195
01:34:49,964 --> 01:34:53,601
us to find better, less

2196
01:34:53,601 --> 01:34:57,037
expensive plan. Because in a

2197
01:34:57,037 --> 01:34:57,638
year’s time will not be able

2198
01:34:57,638 --> 01:35:01,542
to do it. It takes time to get

2199
01:35:01,542 --> 01:35:02,176
out there and look and friends

2200
01:35:02,176 --> 01:35:04,945
what we need. Because I agree

2201
01:35:04,945 --> 01:35:08,616
this is expensive. But I also

2202
01:35:08,616 --> 01:35:12,620
note as a as a retiree. My

2203
01:35:12,620 --> 01:35:15,789
Blue and Blue Shield. Went

2204
01:35:15,789 --> 01:35:19,426
from 176 2, 2, 90 a month. And

2205
01:35:19,426 --> 01:35:23,330
that’s my personal one. OK?

2206
01:35:23,330 --> 01:35:23,864
And that’s, you that’s me

2207
01:35:23,864 --> 01:35:25,799
paying my own because I don’t

2208
01:35:25,799 --> 01:35:28,836
go. I don’t use the county.

2209
01:35:28,836 --> 01:35:30,704
But I do know that it will

2210
01:35:30,704 --> 01:35:33,841
take least over year. For us

2211
01:35:33,841 --> 01:35:37,511
to get out there and find

2212
01:35:37,511 --> 01:35:38,112
something less expensive that

2213
01:35:38,112 --> 01:35:40,414
covers more. And we need to

2214
01:35:40,414 --> 01:35:43,717
have the time to do it. And

2215
01:35:43,717 --> 01:35:45,386
that’s that’s why I’m going

2216
01:35:45,386 --> 01:35:46,153
prove this and the other for

2217
01:35:46,153 --> 01:35:49,323
the go along with it because

2218
01:35:49,323 --> 01:35:52,326
that we need the time to get.

2219
01:35:52,326 --> 01:35:56,063
To where we want to be. And I

2220
01:35:56,063 --> 01:35:58,499
know all the companies in the

2221
01:35:58,499 --> 01:35:59,466
United States have all of that

2222
01:35:59,466 --> 01:36:01,168
increases increases increases

2223
01:36:01,168 --> 01:36:04,738
health care is just

2224
01:36:04,738 --> 01:36:05,839
skyrocketing. It’s not going

2225
01:36:05,839 --> 01:36:11,478
down no matter where you live.

2226
01:36:11,478 --> 01:36:12,213
Westlake for deductibles and

2227
01:36:12,213 --> 01:36:15,082
gotten really ridiculous. We

2228
01:36:15,082 --> 01:36:15,649
offer our employees a good

2229
01:36:15,649 --> 01:36:18,118
plan. And I’m proud of what we

2230
01:36:18,118 --> 01:36:20,321
are from them. But you’re

2231
01:36:20,321 --> 01:36:22,590
right. It is too expensive.

2232
01:36:22,590 --> 01:36:25,292
But at this point, it is a

2233
01:36:25,292 --> 01:36:27,294
little too late in the game

2234
01:36:27,294 --> 01:36:30,197
not to approve this. And

2235
01:36:30,197 --> 01:36:30,798
because I don’t think we’d be

2236
01:36:30,798 --> 01:36:33,367
able to get a decent plan by

2237
01:36:33,367 --> 01:36:41,909
October. The first. If

2238
01:36:41,909 --> 01:36:42,910
>> You know, just chime My

2239
01:36:42,910 --> 01:36:45,279
thoughts on this commissioner

2240
01:36:45,279 --> 01:36:48,616
base. Thank some very

2241
01:36:48,616 --> 01:36:50,651
substantive information to the

2242
01:36:50,651 --> 01:36:53,454
conversation over the last few

2243
01:36:53,454 --> 01:36:58,158
board meetings regarding this

2244
01:36:58,158 --> 01:36:59,426
specific subject when we were

2245
01:36:59,426 --> 01:37:00,761
dealing with extending the

2246
01:37:00,761 --> 01:37:01,262
contractor renewing the

2247
01:37:01,262 --> 01:37:05,332
contract with the clinic live.

2248
01:37:05,332 --> 01:37:05,899
The discussion at that time

2249
01:37:05,899 --> 01:37:08,202
was that we have a 90 day out,

2250
01:37:08,202 --> 01:37:14,174
even with the renewal to give

2251
01:37:14,174 --> 01:37:16,010
the county some time consider

2252
01:37:16,010 --> 01:37:16,543
whether or not continued

2253
01:37:16,543 --> 01:37:19,079
operation of that clinic was

2254
01:37:19,079 --> 01:37:20,881
in our best interest

2255
01:37:20,881 --> 01:37:22,850
financially. And so I think

2256
01:37:22,850 --> 01:37:24,652
that does need to be looked at

2257
01:37:24,652 --> 01:37:27,221
delivery of health primary

2258
01:37:27,221 --> 01:37:31,959
care in particular has changed

2259
01:37:31,959 --> 01:37:32,559
dramatically with the advent

2260
01:37:32,559 --> 01:37:37,498
of tele medicine I mean,

2261
01:37:37,498 --> 01:37:40,000
that’s that’s no, no surprise

2262
01:37:40,000 --> 01:37:40,634
anybody. I’m sure. But used to

2263
01:37:40,634 --> 01:37:43,937
be just specialists. No more

2264
01:37:43,937 --> 01:37:47,608
and more folks are using

2265
01:37:47,608 --> 01:37:48,242
telemedicine for their primary

2266
01:37:48,242 --> 01:37:53,113
care. And I’ve got to believe

2267
01:37:53,113 --> 01:37:56,016
subscriptions or or or

2268
01:37:56,016 --> 01:37:59,153
contracts would be much less

2269
01:37:59,153 --> 01:37:59,753
expensive than maintaining a

2270
01:37:59,753 --> 01:38:03,223
brick and mortar clinic for

2271
01:38:03,223 --> 01:38:04,158
the purposes of of treating

2272
01:38:04,158 --> 01:38:06,193
the conditions, the list of

2273
01:38:06,193 --> 01:38:07,061
conditions that we saw

2274
01:38:07,061 --> 01:38:08,862
permanently the, you know, the

2275
01:38:08,862 --> 01:38:12,833
top, the top 2 or 3 conditions

2276
01:38:12,833 --> 01:38:13,434
that are the clinic sees are

2277
01:38:13,434 --> 01:38:15,269
all things that I believe

2278
01:38:15,269 --> 01:38:18,372
could be handled through telemedicine at a much

2279
01:38:18,372 --> 01:38:21,608
lower cost per visit. So

2280
01:38:21,608 --> 01:38:22,209
Commissioner Base, thank you.

2281
01:38:22,209 --> 01:38:24,244
Think that will be an ongoing

2282
01:38:24,244 --> 01:38:26,914
conversation. Ultimately, I

2283
01:38:26,914 --> 01:38:29,883
could save the taxpayers money

2284
01:38:29,883 --> 01:38:31,618
as far as this I do think that

2285
01:38:31,618 --> 01:38:34,121
we should approve this today.

2286
01:38:34,121 --> 01:38:34,655
And as Commissioner Burke

2287
01:38:34,655 --> 01:38:38,292
said, gives us time to go back

2288
01:38:38,292 --> 01:38:40,561
out to look at the market. I

2289
01:38:40,561 --> 01:38:42,296
know that recently happened,

2290
01:38:42,296 --> 01:38:42,896
the Blue Blues last year from

2291
01:38:42,896 --> 01:38:46,467
the conversations you’ve got

2292
01:38:46,467 --> 01:38:47,668
to have, you’ve got to have

2293
01:38:47,668 --> 01:38:51,672
insurance companies that want

2294
01:38:51,672 --> 01:38:52,373
the business. in Citrus County

2295
01:38:52,373 --> 01:38:55,409
we’ve been we’ve been very

2296
01:38:55,409 --> 01:38:57,344
limited in terms of the actual

2297
01:38:57,344 --> 01:38:58,178
insurers that are interested

2298
01:38:58,178 --> 01:39:03,884
being here maybe that changes

2299
01:39:03,884 --> 01:39:04,418
with with the increase in

2300
01:39:04,418 --> 01:39:05,486
commercial activity year.

2301
01:39:05,486 --> 01:39:08,989
Those larger names, maybe they

2302
01:39:08,989 --> 01:39:09,623
bring bring some more interest

2303
01:39:09,623 --> 01:39:12,826
from from different companies.

2304
01:39:12,826 --> 01:39:14,828
I know the sheriff’s office

2305
01:39:14,828 --> 01:39:18,432
changed too United Healthcare.

2306
01:39:18,432 --> 01:39:20,100
I don’t recall exactly how

2307
01:39:20,100 --> 01:39:20,667
long ago that was. But they

2308
01:39:20,667 --> 01:39:23,470
went through the exercise and

2309
01:39:23,470 --> 01:39:24,338
compared rates and ultimately

2310
01:39:24,338 --> 01:39:28,208
end up changing to united. I

2311
01:39:28,208 --> 01:39:32,112
would assume the United has a

2312
01:39:32,112 --> 01:39:34,448
decent provider in the in the

2313
01:39:34,448 --> 01:39:35,849
county for further specialists

2314
01:39:35,849 --> 01:39:39,386
or as big of a provider panel

2315
01:39:39,386 --> 01:39:42,723
as we can have a specialist in

2316
01:39:42,723 --> 01:39:43,323
the county and and then, you

2317
01:39:43,323 --> 01:39:48,529
go back to you know, the

2318
01:39:48,529 --> 01:39:49,096
primary care stuff will be

2319
01:39:49,096 --> 01:39:51,298
handled by telemedicine.

2320
01:39:51,298 --> 01:39:54,535
there’s not one Magic magic

2321
01:39:54,535 --> 01:39:56,036
pill here. attacking it from a

2322
01:39:56,036 --> 01:39:59,406
couple different angles. I

2323
01:39:59,406 --> 01:40:00,007
think that we can that we can

2324
01:40:00,007 --> 01:40:02,443
trim the budget for a health

2325
01:40:02,443 --> 01:40:06,880
care insurance over time.

2326
01:40:06,880 --> 01:40:07,648
Okay. Madam Chair, I have a

2327
01:40:07,648 --> 01:40:10,984
couple This one.

2328
01:40:10,984 --> 01:40:11,985
>> Something else that caught

2329
01:40:11,985 --> 01:40:13,353
my attention in the past,

2330
01:40:13,353 --> 01:40:15,956
there’s been a nicotine

2331
01:40:15,956 --> 01:40:19,393
program in 25 that was

2332
01:40:19,393 --> 01:40:22,729
120,009, 15. 26. It was 120.

2333
01:40:22,729 --> 01:40:25,532
This year. They’ve eliminated

2334
01:40:25,532 --> 01:40:26,300
that. So that to me would have

2335
01:40:26,300 --> 01:40:30,003
generated savings. The other

2336
01:40:30,003 --> 01:40:30,604
thing that’s very concerning

2337
01:40:30,604 --> 01:40:32,840
when you go through this,

2338
01:40:32,840 --> 01:40:36,009
we’re paying several layers of

2339
01:40:36,009 --> 01:40:37,077
administration. The employee

2340
01:40:37,077 --> 01:40:39,012
benefit an insurance brokerage

2341
01:40:39,012 --> 01:40:40,314
services. 82,000, the Florida

2342
01:40:40,314 --> 01:40:41,148
Blue Medical Insurance

2343
01:40:41,148 --> 01:40:45,486
Administration is 626,000

2344
01:40:45,486 --> 01:40:46,587
Lantern Surgery Administration

2345
01:40:46,587 --> 01:40:48,522
is almost 62,000 clinic

2346
01:40:48,522 --> 01:40:56,763
management fee is 258,000.

2347
01:40:56,763 --> 01:40:57,431
mean, Commissioner Barry has

2348
01:40:57,431 --> 01:40:57,998
been a very watchful person

2349
01:40:57,998 --> 01:41:01,902
over the budget. So I think

2350
01:41:01,902 --> 01:41:04,771
this is something that, again,

2351
01:41:04,771 --> 01:41:05,706
it’s not about taking it away,

2352
01:41:05,706 --> 01:41:08,976
but this is not sustainable.

2353
01:41:08,976 --> 01:41:10,143
Right now. If we were to take

2354
01:41:10,143 --> 01:41:14,915
this and divide it out by

2355
01:41:14,915 --> 01:41:16,483
employee, we’re spending

2356
01:41:16,483 --> 01:41:17,017
$18,500 per employee for

2357
01:41:17,017 --> 01:41:22,122
health care plan. That is not

2358
01:41:22,122 --> 01:41:23,023
sustainable. I’m not trying to

2359
01:41:23,023 --> 01:41:26,293
be ugly year, but this is

2360
01:41:26,293 --> 01:41:26,894
something that we should have

2361
01:41:26,894 --> 01:41:30,330
been looking at. I brought it

2362
01:41:30,330 --> 01:41:30,964
up a couple of different times

2363
01:41:30,964 --> 01:41:37,271
during my time on this board.

2364
01:41:37,271 --> 01:41:40,040
This we’re talking about

2365
01:41:40,040 --> 01:41:41,675
spending over 17 million

2366
01:41:41,675 --> 01:41:42,209
dollars on a health care

2367
01:41:42,209 --> 01:41:44,444
program for employees. This

2368
01:41:44,444 --> 01:41:49,616
has got to get rained in.

2369
01:41:49,616 --> 01:41:50,150
That’s we’re looking into

2370
01:41:50,150 --> 01:41:57,057
that. Anything

should both at this point.

2411
01:43:30,817 --> 01:43:37,958
They’re just 3 days apart. It

01:44:23,370 --> 01:44:24,371
had absolutely nothing as a

2430
01:44:24,371 --> 01:44:25,472
time to be a way that’s not

2431
01:44:25,472 --> 01:44:29,209
all firmed up. I guess I’m I’m

2432
01:44:29,209 --> 01:44:30,677
up in the air. Obviously just

2433
01:44:30,677 --> 01:44:34,648
a reminder to those watching

2434
01:44:34,648 --> 01:44:35,749
here in a home like this isn’t

2435
01:44:35,749 --> 01:44:36,283
for this next budget. Of

2436
01:44:36,283 --> 01:44:38,185
course, I will the here doing

2437
01:44:38,185 --> 01:44:41,521
my duty through. You know,

2438
01:44:41,521 --> 01:44:43,256
through this whole budget

2439
01:44:43,256 --> 01:44:43,790
cycle. This is for years

2440
01:44:43,790 --> 01:44:46,927
later, which I’m obviously not

2441
01:44:46,927 --> 01:44:49,296
to making decisions for those

2442
01:44:49,296 --> 01:44:54,201
years. So we’ll we’ll say.

2443
01:44:54,201 --> 01:44:55,035
>> If the 6th works we

2444
01:44:55,035 --> 01:44:58,505
schedule of them and I think

2445
01:44:58,505 --> 01:45:01,174
the the recall there was

2446
01:45:01,174 --> 01:45:01,808
discussion about it. the idea

2447
01:45:01,808 --> 01:45:05,412
of the time was using that

2448
01:45:05,412 --> 01:45:06,313
first meeting to take a look

2449
01:45:06,313 --> 01:45:10,684
at what is. What is the budget

2450
01:45:10,684 --> 01:45:11,284
look like with the different

2451
01:45:11,284 --> 01:45:13,086
departments will collect

2452
01:45:13,086 --> 01:45:16,256
budget wise. It Amendment 3

2453
01:45:16,256 --> 01:45:18,058
does pass and having a very

2454
01:45:18,058 --> 01:45:18,658
frank discussion about what’s

2455
01:45:18,658 --> 01:45:22,129
on the chopping block and then

2456
01:45:22,129 --> 01:45:26,366
a second workshop to cover.

2457
01:45:26,366 --> 01:45:27,167
You’re too, where the cuts get

2458
01:45:27,167 --> 01:45:27,868
much more significant, much

2459
01:45:27,868 --> 01:45:30,737
deeper cuts that point. But if

2460
01:45:30,737 --> 01:45:32,539
the board feels like that, we

2461
01:45:32,539 --> 01:45:33,874
can cover all of that ground.

2462
01:45:33,874 --> 01:45:36,042
And one meeting, Irwin

2463
01:45:36,042 --> 01:45:36,643
workshop when we do it on the

2464
01:45:36,643 --> 01:45:39,813
sex.

2465
01:45:39,813 --> 01:45:41,014
>> Well, I just want to

2466
01:45:41,014 --> 01:45:42,849
reiterate what I was trying to

2467
01:45:42,849 --> 01:45:44,818
say the last time when said,

2468
01:45:44,818 --> 01:45:47,287
you know, let there be a

2469
01:45:47,287 --> 01:45:47,921
presentation. And then the new

2470
01:45:47,921 --> 01:45:51,024
board make decisions. If it

2471
01:45:51,024 --> 01:45:53,226
even passes, because we’re

2472
01:45:53,226 --> 01:45:55,162
talking about we have a county

2473
01:45:55,162 --> 01:45:56,096
budget team making these

2474
01:45:56,096 --> 01:45:58,965
decisions then for the county

2475
01:45:58,965 --> 01:46:01,034
budget. How does that fit in

2476
01:46:01,034 --> 01:46:01,601
with all the constitutional

2477
01:46:01,601 --> 01:46:02,202
is? How does that fit in with

2478
01:46:02,202 --> 01:46:02,736
the library in the health

2479
01:46:02,736 --> 01:46:04,070
department and the clerk of

2480
01:46:04,070 --> 01:46:04,704
court and the sheriff’s office

2481
01:46:04,704 --> 01:46:08,408
and home. I think that’s going

2482
01:46:08,408 --> 01:46:10,877
to be a much broader

2483
01:46:10,877 --> 01:46:12,078
conversation that’s going to

2484
01:46:12,078 --> 01:46:15,549
take that next year over time.

2485
01:46:15,549 --> 01:46:16,116
>> I don’t know that that’s

2486
01:46:16,116 --> 01:46:20,220
getting worked

2487
01:46:20,220 --> 01:46:22,222
>> And a few hours, know, but

2488
01:46:22,222 --> 01:46:23,423
the much of the constitutional

2489
01:46:23,423 --> 01:46:25,325
budget is decided for us you

2490
01:46:25,325 --> 01:46:30,497
know, largely a formality for

2491
01:46:30,497 --> 01:46:31,565
us to approve much of that

2492
01:46:31,565 --> 01:46:34,334
know we have some discretion.

2493
01:46:34,334 --> 01:46:37,070
Sure, but but I think the

2494
01:46:37,070 --> 01:46:38,405
biggest cuts are things that

2495
01:46:38,405 --> 01:46:39,439
the public’s going to want to

2496
01:46:39,439 --> 01:46:40,407
hear about before they go into

2497
01:46:40,407 --> 01:46:43,710
the voting booth in November

2498
01:46:43,710 --> 01:46:44,311
to make a decision one way or

2499
01:46:44,311 --> 01:46:47,881
the You know, I OK with? Cuts

2500
01:46:47,881 --> 01:46:52,319
here here? And here and having

2501
01:46:52,319 --> 01:46:54,287
budget or department directors

2502
01:46:54,287 --> 01:46:56,122
there for the public to

2503
01:46:56,122 --> 01:46:56,890
interact with, you know, to be

2504
01:46:56,890 --> 01:46:57,724
able to go up and talk to the

2505
01:46:57,724 --> 01:46:59,693
fire chief and say. What does

2506
01:46:59,693 --> 01:47:02,896
this look like? You know, to

2507
01:47:02,896 --> 01:47:05,866
Stevens gives his presentation

2508
01:47:05,866 --> 01:47:09,035
on on what this looks like in

2509
01:47:09,035 --> 01:47:09,636
year one and year 2 and going

2510
01:47:09,636 --> 01:47:14,307
forward. What does that look

2511
01:47:14,307 --> 01:47:15,408
like, Does that mean fewer

2512
01:47:15,408 --> 01:47:16,009
firefighters? Does that mean

2513
01:47:16,009 --> 01:47:19,479
fewer stations to 17? And that

2514
01:47:19,479 --> 01:47:20,180
gives the public an

2515
01:47:20,180 --> 01:47:20,814
opportunity to visit with them

2516
01:47:20,814 --> 01:47:23,550
to visit with public works,

2517
01:47:23,550 --> 01:47:25,852
you know, to visit with the

2518
01:47:25,852 --> 01:47:27,053
library director with their

2519
01:47:27,053 --> 01:47:28,889
kid about parks, all type of

2520
01:47:28,889 --> 01:47:31,324
stuff. And I think I think it

2521
01:47:31,324 --> 01:47:31,958
would be, I think a be a good

2522
01:47:31,958 --> 01:47:35,762
exercise for people to gain

2523
01:47:35,762 --> 01:47:36,596
more information about what

2524
01:47:36,596 --> 01:47:39,466
that looks like going forward.

2525
01:47:39,466 --> 01:47:40,834
So but would be for the 6 and

2526
01:47:40,834 --> 01:47:42,869
looks let’s cover the ground.

2527
01:47:42,869 --> 01:47:45,605
I have a question.

2528
01:47:45,605 --> 01:47:46,206
>> Commissioner, I’d like to

2529
01:47:46,206 --> 01:47:48,675
do the 6th, but residents in

2530
01:47:48,675 --> 01:47:50,877
cover the ground. I’d like to

2531
01:47:50,877 --> 01:47:52,445
do something for in November.

2532
01:47:52,445 --> 01:47:55,215
other words. After the

2533
01:47:55,215 --> 01:47:57,817
election know it do something

2534
01:47:57,817 --> 01:48:00,387
in the 6 for preliminary and

2535
01:48:00,387 --> 01:48:01,254
then say after the election,

2536
01:48:01,254 --> 01:48:04,424
we know one way or the other.

2537
01:48:04,424 --> 01:48:06,293
We bring back what we learned

2538
01:48:06,293 --> 01:48:07,093
in October and see what we can

2539
01:48:07,093 --> 01:48:10,196
do with what we get from. You

2540
01:48:10,196 --> 01:48:10,797
know, the citizens might have

2541
01:48:10,797 --> 01:48:12,098
got some information. We’ll

2542
01:48:12,098 --> 01:48:14,067
get some more information and

2543
01:48:14,067 --> 01:48:16,303
like the more beneficial to

2544
01:48:16,303 --> 01:48:17,871
do. 2 of them would do one in

2545
01:48:17,871 --> 01:48:18,438
October. And then one after

2546
01:48:18,438 --> 01:48:22,842
the election.

2547
01:48:22,842 --> 01:48:23,944
>> Madam Chair, I let’s I’m

2548
01:48:23,944 --> 01:48:24,511
not opposed to that. Let’s

2549
01:48:24,511 --> 01:48:27,914
wait and see for to schedule

2550
01:48:27,914 --> 01:48:29,616
the November one to see if it

2551
01:48:29,616 --> 01:48:31,918
passes. If it does pass, then

2552
01:48:31,918 --> 01:48:34,854
absolutely. I think there will

2553
01:48:34,854 --> 01:48:37,457
be multiple preliminary budget

2554
01:48:37,457 --> 01:48:38,158
workshops other people are

2555
01:48:38,158 --> 01:48:42,829
going to have a great interest

2556
01:48:42,829 --> 01:48:44,464
>> We commission. I think what

2557
01:48:44,464 --> 01:48:48,201
would be helpful during this?

2558
01:48:48,201 --> 01:48:50,236
I believe the attorney general

2559
01:48:50,236 --> 01:48:52,205
just rewrote the language for

2560
01:48:52,205 --> 01:48:52,706
the ballot and they’ve

2561
01:48:52,706 --> 01:48:55,375
strengthened. Some of the

2562
01:48:55,375 --> 01:48:57,877
information on to the extent

2563
01:48:57,877 --> 01:49:02,415
that they’re talking about.

2564
01:49:02,415 --> 01:49:04,384
Eliminating ways for local

2565
01:49:04,384 --> 01:49:06,453
governments to offset the cost

2566
01:49:06,453 --> 01:49:08,655
through in this to use or

2567
01:49:08,655 --> 01:49:09,723
abuse or whatever. They’re

2568
01:49:09,723 --> 01:49:10,724
also good alternative

2569
01:49:10,724 --> 01:49:11,291
resources are, but we know

2570
01:49:11,291 --> 01:49:17,230
that St use our. Based off of

2571
01:49:17,230 --> 01:49:20,667
ad valorem collections. So

2572
01:49:20,667 --> 01:49:25,405
it’s there’s always been. Talk

2573
01:49:25,405 --> 01:49:26,873
about what that means. But if

2574
01:49:26,873 --> 01:49:28,942
you actually if this actually

2575
01:49:28,942 --> 01:49:30,677
passes, I’m not even sure if

2576
01:49:30,677 --> 01:49:32,545
you went to a tu that it would

2577
01:49:32,545 --> 01:49:35,782
pay to have one. So I think if

2578
01:49:35,782 --> 01:49:38,018
you can bring that information

2579
01:49:38,018 --> 01:49:39,219
back, I know that public

2580
01:49:39,219 --> 01:49:41,354
safety is considered. That’s

2581
01:49:41,354 --> 01:49:41,888
where you start with your

2582
01:49:41,888 --> 01:49:50,697
budget. And I think you just

2583
01:49:50,697 --> 01:49:51,331
kind of drilling down into and

2584
01:49:51,331 --> 01:49:53,633
I know that when we look at

2585
01:49:53,633 --> 01:49:54,968
what our frs contributions are

2586
01:49:54,968 --> 01:49:56,770
and what the state change,

2587
01:49:56,770 --> 01:49:57,370
those frs contributions, they

2588
01:49:57,370 --> 01:49:59,272
raise some of those. I think

2589
01:49:59,272 --> 01:50:03,043
we need to kind of Boyle

2590
01:50:03,043 --> 01:50:03,643
killed the young him back, if

2591
01:50:03,643 --> 01:50:06,112
you will, to kind of look

2592
01:50:06,112 --> 01:50:08,314
deeper into what’s driving the

2593
01:50:08,314 --> 01:50:11,084
cost. I think it would be nice

2594
01:50:11,084 --> 01:50:12,552
to see what the inflationary

2595
01:50:12,552 --> 01:50:13,053
guards are for. Like we

2596
01:50:13,053 --> 01:50:14,354
approved fuel today. What does

2597
01:50:14,354 --> 01:50:17,424
that look like? And then what

2598
01:50:17,424 --> 01:50:19,426
are the unfunded state

2599
01:50:19,426 --> 01:50:19,926
mandates that we could

2600
01:50:19,926 --> 01:50:23,763
potentially? Have

2601
01:50:23,763 --> 01:50:33,006
conversations about?

2602
01:50:33,006 --> 01:50:35,608
>> Well, 40 guests you up in

2603
01:50:35,608 --> 01:50:36,242
the air so you all can decide.

2604
01:50:36,242 --> 01:50:38,678
I’m fine. Today, To say like

2605
01:50:38,678 --> 01:50:40,580
Tuesday commissioner can

2606
01:50:40,580 --> 01:50:41,681
entered.

2607
01:50:41,681 --> 01:50:42,282
>> Yeah. Tuesday’s good. Can

2608
01:50:42,282 --> 01:50:42,916
we start a little earlier than

2609
01:50:42,916 --> 01:50:49,622
one? 9 is fun. 9 till noon

2610
01:50:49,622 --> 01:50:53,426
fine. On Tuesday. Started and

2611
01:50:53,426 --> 01:50:54,394
we’ll see how long it takes

2612
01:50:54,394 --> 01:51:04,804
to. this. Make it work.

2613
01:51:04,804 --> 01:51:05,438
>> Looks like someone needs to

2614
01:51:05,438 --> 01:51:08,775
make a motion. Could we have

2615
01:51:08,775 --> 01:51:09,342
invited the constitutional

2616
01:51:09,342 --> 01:51:14,013
officers to participate?

2617
01:51:14,013 --> 01:51:14,614
>> We can do anything. plush

2618
01:51:14,614 --> 01:51:17,684
board all, if you want item, I

2619
01:51:17,684 --> 01:51:19,052
can’t participate. Paul, to

2620
01:51:19,052 --> 01:51:23,590
very best.

2621
01:51:23,590 --> 01:51:25,692
>> And I think that the board

2622
01:51:25,692 --> 01:51:26,626
should decide ahead of time

2623
01:51:26,626 --> 01:51:27,861
for this is published. If this

2624
01:51:27,861 --> 01:51:29,229
is a workshop that will be

2625
01:51:29,229 --> 01:51:29,863
interactive with the public or

2626
01:51:29,863 --> 01:51:31,331
if this is going to be a

2627
01:51:31,331 --> 01:51:33,867
workshop strictly for the

2628
01:51:33,867 --> 01:51:34,467
board and the Constitutional

2629
01:51:34,467 --> 01:51:35,068
is are those whose the budget

2630
01:51:35,068 --> 01:51:40,306
effects? I personally think

2631
01:51:40,306 --> 01:51:41,007
it’s important for the public

2632
01:51:41,007 --> 01:51:43,943
to be there. I think it’s

2633
01:51:43,943 --> 01:51:44,277
educational.

2634
01:51:44,277 --> 01:51:45,111
>> The public would always be

2635
01:51:45,111 --> 01:51:45,712
there. But some workshops

2636
01:51:45,712 --> 01:51:46,312
allow the public to speak in

2637
01:51:46,312 --> 01:51:48,815
something not. I think you

2638
01:51:48,815 --> 01:51:56,322
speak absolutely. Yes.

2639
01:51:56,322 --> 01:51:56,856
>> And the commissioner

2640
01:51:56,856 --> 01:51:59,659
elects. How do we want them

2641
01:51:59,659 --> 01:52:04,631
participate?

2642
01:52:04,631 --> 01:52:05,265
>> Can I think should treat it

2643
01:52:05,265 --> 01:52:06,933
like we always do with respect

2644
01:52:06,933 --> 01:52:10,203
and let them be part of is

2645
01:52:10,203 --> 01:52:10,837
just like I was just like It

2646
01:52:10,837 --> 01:52:12,772
was just like you are just

2647
01:52:12,772 --> 01:52:13,339
like Commissioner Frank. It

2648
01:52:13,339 --> 01:52:16,743
was just like. Commissioner

2649
01:52:16,743 --> 01:52:18,645
Davis was we were not given

2650
01:52:18,645 --> 01:52:21,481
anything special. We were said

2651
01:52:21,481 --> 01:52:22,081
come and see what’s going on.

2652
01:52:22,081 --> 01:52:23,950
If you want

2653
01:52:23,950 --> 01:52:25,885
>> Some did. Some didn’t. And

2654
01:52:25,885 --> 01:52:28,254
if they want to participate, I

2655
01:52:28,254 --> 01:52:28,821
think they should be given

2656
01:52:28,821 --> 01:52:29,756
just exactly the same as

2657
01:52:29,756 --> 01:52:38,965
everybody else. If they’re

2658
01:52:38,965 --> 01:52:39,566
there and they’re part of the

2659
01:52:39,566 --> 01:52:40,200
public than they can speak as

2660
01:52:40,200 --> 01:52:44,170
well. They’ll be making the

2661
01:52:44,170 --> 01:52:49,509
ultimate decisions.

2662
01:52:49,509 --> 01:52:52,645
>> Motion to approve a

2663
01:52:52,645 --> 01:52:55,949

2690
01:54:04,217 --> 01:54:05,118
treatments and milling and

2691
01:54:05,118 --> 01:54:05,718
paving projects are still on

2692
01:54:05,718 --> 01:54:08,721
track to finish up this month.

2693
01:54:08,721 --> 01:54:09,555
set us on a good track for our

2694
01:54:09,555 --> 01:54:13,760
next year’s pay to management.

2695
01:54:13,760 --> 01:54:15,762
Apopka construction has been

2696
01:54:15,762 --> 01:54:17,030
completed and would like

2697
01:54:17,030 --> 01:54:17,797
permission to go ahead and

2698
01:54:17,797 --> 01:54:18,398
remove this from our tracking

2699
01:54:18,398 --> 01:54:23,870
list. Same with CR. 39 with

2700
01:54:23,870 --> 01:54:25,038
the trail. That project is

2701
01:54:25,038 --> 01:54:25,938
still closing out. But

2702
01:54:25,938 --> 01:54:27,740
construction has been

2703
01:54:27,740 --> 01:54:28,341
functionally completed. So if

2704
01:54:28,341 --> 01:54:28,875
you drive down that road

2705
01:54:28,875 --> 01:54:33,313
should look all. Our other 2

2706
01:54:33,313 --> 01:54:33,813
Scott projects that are

01:54:33,813 --> 01:54:36,349
currently being tracked our

2708
01:54:36,349 --> 01:54:36,783
Gospel island. The

2709
01:54:36,783 --> 01:54:38,351
solicitation period closes on

2710
01:54:38,351 --> 01:54:39,819

2711
01:54:39,819 --> 01:54:40,420
next step would be to provide

2712
01:54:40,420 --> 01:54:44,290

2713
01:54:44,290 --> 01:54:45,058

2717
01:54:48,928 --> 01:54:52,031
into the next fiscal year.

2718
01:54:52,031 --> 01:54:53,132
Don’t have any other project

2719
01:54:53,132 --> 01:54:53,966
updates unless you have any

2720
01:54:53,966 --> 01:54:55,101
questions. But I would like to

2721
01:54:55,101 --> 01:54:56,302
take this opportunity to let

2722
01:54:56,302 --> 01:54:57,070
you know that we’ve made some

2723
01:54:57,070 --> 01:54:59,505
improvements to the website

2724
01:54:59,505 --> 01:55:00,573
for our strategic Planning

2725
01:55:00,573 --> 01:55:02,275
dashboard. There was some

2726
01:55:02,275 --> 01:55:03,943
discussion about having the

2727
01:55:03,943 --> 01:55:04,544
outstanding commission items

2728
01:55:04,544 --> 01:55:05,311
in one place and the strategic

2729
01:55:05,311 --> 01:55:07,046
planning items in another.

2730
01:55:07,046 --> 01:55:08,014
Now, all of the projects that

2731
01:55:08,014 --> 01:55:09,749

2732
01:55:09,749 --> 01:55:10,950

strategy. Thank you any

2735
01:55:14,454 --> 01:55:18,324
questions.

2736
01:55:18,324 --> 01:55:18,925
>> I want to know how I bring

2737
01:55:18,925 --> 01:55:23,262
it forward to get. The road

2738
01:55:23,262 --> 01:55:23,863
resurfacing program payment

2739
01:55:23,863 --> 01:55:27,200
management program changed. I

2740
01:55:27,200 --> 01:55:28,368
have had God knows how many

2741
01:55:28,368 --> 01:55:30,937
complaints and I’ve some of

2742
01:55:30,937 --> 01:55:33,306
them of it are Jamestown.

2743
01:55:33,306 --> 01:55:37,176
Those people getting the vote

2744
01:55:37,176 --> 01:55:38,745
with just little tiny chips on

2745
01:55:38,745 --> 01:55:42,782
it are extremely upset. Some

2746
01:55:42,782 --> 01:55:45,651
of them do have a second going

2747
01:55:45,651 --> 01:55:47,954
of chart and those people are

2748
01:55:47,954 --> 01:55:52,358
happy as can The problem is we

2749
01:55:52,358 --> 01:55:54,827
are not putting down Curry

2750
01:55:54,827 --> 01:55:57,096
servicing pavement plan.

2751
01:55:57,096 --> 01:55:57,730
That’s not pavement with. They

2752
01:55:57,730 --> 01:56:01,234
put down there. Go out there

2753
01:56:01,234 --> 01:56:02,135
on some of the road and you

2754
01:56:02,135 --> 01:56:03,870
see it in his throughout the

2755
01:56:03,870 --> 01:56:04,670
entire county and has

2756
01:56:04,670 --> 01:56:05,371
throughout the entire county

2757
01:56:05,371 --> 01:56:08,040
denied been getting complaints

2758
01:56:08,040 --> 01:56:08,508
and it’s not just one

2759
01:56:08,508 --> 01:56:11,244
complaint from my area.

2760
01:56:11,244 --> 01:56:13,446
Commissioner Finnegan’s area.

2761
01:56:13,446 --> 01:56:14,013
It’s simple. All the areas

2762
01:56:14,013 --> 01:56:16,749
that are getting this lovely

2763
01:56:16,749 --> 01:56:18,651
payment that is not pavement.

2764
01:56:18,651 --> 01:56:20,620
And I’d like to see us come

2765
01:56:20,620 --> 01:56:25,658
back and it over with road.

2766
01:56:25,658 --> 01:56:26,659
People and get to where

2767
01:56:26,659 --> 01:56:29,429
everybody gets pavement. And

2768
01:56:29,429 --> 01:56:31,431
if we don’t get that much

2769
01:56:31,431 --> 01:56:32,031
done, we don’t get that much

2770
01:56:32,031 --> 01:56:35,401
done. What we get is a real

2771
01:56:35,401 --> 01:56:36,102
that’s going to be there for

2772
01:56:36,102 --> 01:56:39,205
least years, if not longer.

2773
01:56:39,205 --> 01:56:41,307
>> Everyone that I’ve called

2774
01:56:41,307 --> 01:56:42,909
them, that’s all been changed,

2775
01:56:42,909 --> 01:56:43,476
that everyone’s getting the

2776
01:56:43,476 --> 01:56:46,446
and over what was the

2777
01:56:46,446 --> 01:56:47,013
>> well, that that’s what I

2778
01:56:47,013 --> 01:56:49,715
wanted to know. Because I’ve

2779
01:56:49,715 --> 01:56:52,084
chip for 8 weeks now. We went

2780
01:56:52,084 --> 01:56:55,254
to my going to ceiling. My

2781
01:56:55,254 --> 01:56:55,822
neighbors added for 6 weeks

2782
01:56:55,822 --> 01:57:05,898
and we get the answer for you.

2783
01:57:05,898 --> 01:57:06,933
>> Coming up, Mr. Hall, the

2784
01:57:06,933 --> 01:57:08,835
pavement answer to all.

2785
01:57:08,835 --> 01:57:09,335
>> Chair Commissioners,

2786
01:57:09,335 --> 01:57:11,838
Carlton all public works. So

2787
01:57:11,838 --> 01:57:14,040
yes, as we’ve started the

2788
01:57:14,040 --> 01:57:15,007
single-layer chip seal on top

2789
01:57:15,007 --> 01:57:16,242
of the road resurfacing, which

2790
01:57:16,242 --> 01:57:18,144
is more of preservation

2791
01:57:18,144 --> 01:57:19,145
treatment on the existing

2792
01:57:19,145 --> 01:57:20,446
asphalt just to keep those

2793
01:57:20,446 --> 01:57:21,948
roads from deteriorating any

2794
01:57:21,948 --> 01:57:22,915
further and to allow them to

2795
01:57:22,915 --> 01:57:26,285
extend the life. We’ve come to

2796
01:57:26,285 --> 01:57:28,054
the decision that a fog seal

2797
01:57:28,054 --> 01:57:30,056

2821
01:58:18,404 --> 01:58:21,974

02:00:54,627 --> 02:00:57,897
item one earlier today you

2898
02:00:57,897 --> 02:01:01,333
know, there’s been. I guess

2899
02:01:01,333 --> 02:01:03,369
it’s a surfaced a week or so

2900
02:01:03,369 --> 02:01:05,171
ago. There’s been an awful lot

2901
02:01:05,171 --> 02:01:06,772
of comments. Lot of discussion

2902
02:01:06,772 --> 02:01:08,407
about Commissioner D’Amato.

2903
02:01:08,407 --> 02:01:13,846
He. If you if you knew the guy

2904
02:01:13,846 --> 02:01:15,614
obviously the board members

2905
02:01:15,614 --> 02:01:18,084
did individually, it was not

2906
02:01:18,084 --> 02:01:20,386
an ID law for sure. Definitely

2907
02:01:20,386 --> 02:01:23,122
was not a populist. A dentist

2908
02:01:23,122 --> 02:01:26,826
would. Get an idea in his head

2909
02:01:26,826 --> 02:01:27,693
that he felt like was the best

2910
02:01:27,693 --> 02:01:31,664
for the county long term,

2911
02:01:31,664 --> 02:01:33,933
whether he was sitting up here

2912
02:01:33,933 --> 02:01:38,170
or not. who would. Start

2913
02:01:38,170 --> 02:01:38,804
driving. I mean, he would come

2914
02:01:38,804 --> 02:01:39,405
up with the plan years after

2915
02:01:39,405 --> 02:01:42,641
he was in office. He came up

2916
02:01:42,641 --> 02:01:43,242
to at an event and hey, want

2917
02:01:43,242 --> 02:01:44,210
to talk to you about this. We

2918
02:01:44,210 --> 02:01:46,645
need to get this fiction. It

2919
02:01:46,645 --> 02:01:47,613
already put this whole thing

2920
02:01:47,613 --> 02:01:50,316
together in his head again,

2921
02:01:50,316 --> 02:01:53,319
years after he was out of

2922
02:01:53,319 --> 02:01:54,720
office. So just what what a

2923
02:01:54,720 --> 02:01:57,656
leader with a leader on this

2924
02:01:57,656 --> 02:01:59,592

see how they compare with the

2941
02:02:34,393 --> 02:02:34,994

02:03:23,742 --> 02:03:24,376
name is on the drilling within

2962
02:03:24,376 --> 02:03:25,611
with the I live in Inverness.

2963
02:03:25,611 --> 02:03:26,679
And I wanted to just address

done something along those

2972
02:03:46,866 --> 02:03:47,399
lines already. So I’m not

2973
02:03:47,399 --> 02:03:49,935

02:03:52,972 --> 02:03:57,843
Thursday this is very, very

2976
02:03:57,843 --> 02:04:00,779
important figure in the

02:04:00,779 --> 02:04:02,414
Christian community who spoke

2978
02:04:02,414 --> 02:04:03,716
difficult truths and was

2979
02:04:03,716 --> 02:04:04,283
assassinated because of his

2980
02:04:04,283 --> 02:04:09,655
words, which essentially just

2981
02:04:09,655 --> 02:04:12,858
typical principles and and was

2982
02:04:12,858 --> 02:04:14,994
just letting college students

2983
02:04:14,994 --> 02:04:16,829
know with the biblical truth

2984
02:04:16,829 --> 02:04:20,466
is regarding, for

2985
02:04:20,466 --> 02:04:21,000
transgenderism and cannot

2986
02:04:21,000 --> 02:04:22,534
become a woman and so forth.

2987
02:04:22,534 --> 02:04:23,469
And and he was assassinated

2988
02:04:23,469 --> 02:04:28,474
for that. So. He his death

2989
02:04:28,474 --> 02:04:29,508
really impacted lot of We feel

2990
02:04:29,508 --> 02:04:32,411
that it would be appropriate

2991
02:04:32,411 --> 02:04:33,512
for you if you don’t want to

2992
02:04:33,512 --> 02:04:34,413
do our library display to at

2993
02:04:34,413 --> 02:04:37,983
least have a proclamation on

2994
02:04:37,983 --> 02:04:38,717
your meeting October, the 13th

2995
02:04:38,717 --> 02:04:39,652
I see you’re having one 13th,

2996
02:04:39,652 --> 02:04:41,487
which is the day before his

2997
02:04:41,487 --> 02:04:42,187
birthday of October. The 14th

2998
02:04:42,187 --> 02:04:45,858
and know what the prop the

2999
02:04:45,858 --> 02:04:46,926
process is deciding I think

3000
02:04:46,926 --> 02:04:49,762
its staff, but if you can make

3001
02:04:49,762 --> 02:04:51,597
it a motion to direct staff to

3002
02:04:51,597 --> 02:04:55,034
do a proclamation that day

3003
02:04:55,034 --> 02:04:55,668
again, if you don’t want to do

3004
02:04:55,668 --> 02:04:58,003
the library display, at least

3005
02:04:58,003 --> 02:04:59,538
do that because I think it’s

3006
02:04:59,538 --> 02:05:01,640
appropriate and it would be

3007
02:05:01,640 --> 02:05:03,075
taken. It would be positively

3008
02:05:03,075 --> 02:05:06,178
received by by the public. The

3009
02:05:06,178 --> 02:05:06,779
other thing which I kind ran

3010
02:05:06,779 --> 02:05:09,081
out of time on is that your

3011
02:05:09,081 --> 02:05:12,618
next meeting I mean, out there

3012
02:05:12,618 --> 02:05:13,452
on Thursday, the October, I’m

3013
02:05:13,452 --> 02:05:15,187
sorry, the September the 10th

3014
02:05:15,187 --> 02:05:17,089
meeting, the tentative budget

3015
02:05:17,089 --> 02:05:19,224
hearing. I believe that

3016
02:05:19,224 --> 02:05:19,825
meeting the sheriff will be

3017
02:05:19,825 --> 02:05:20,426
here to present his budget if

3018
02:05:20,426 --> 02:05:22,528
I’m not mistaken. And I think

3019
02:05:22,528 --> 02:05:23,162
that would be a very good

3020
02:05:23,162 --> 02:05:26,131
opportunity to ask him

3021
02:05:26,131 --> 02:05:27,166
regarding what the sheriff’s

3022
02:05:27,166 --> 02:05:29,301
office says procedures are

3023
02:05:29,301 --> 02:05:33,005
regarding complaints about death threats

3024
02:05:33,005 --> 02:05:35,674
because as you I believe the

3025
02:05:35,674 --> 02:05:36,675
threat complain that they

3026
02:05:36,675 --> 02:05:38,677
received was mishandled badly.

3027
02:05:38,677 --> 02:05:39,511
And again, just to go over

3028
02:05:39,511 --> 02:05:42,281
what happened, the individual,

3029
02:05:42,281 --> 02:05:44,249
Jennifer Brogan, she’s here.

3030
02:05:44,249 --> 02:05:47,186
She to the county Sheriff’s

3031
02:05:47,186 --> 02:05:49,388
office. She reported a death

3032
02:05:49,388 --> 02:05:52,458
threat. The deputy did not put

3033
02:05:52,458 --> 02:05:53,025
that. She reported a death

3034
02:05:53,025 --> 02:05:55,060
threat in the written report.

3035
02:05:55,060 --> 02:05:58,263
He told or to block a a

3036
02:05:58,263 --> 02:06:00,065
blocked number, which I feel

3037
02:06:00,065 --> 02:06:01,266
is very appropriate. If it’s a

3038
02:06:01,266 --> 02:06:01,900
death, it’s it’s not just us a

3039
02:06:01,900 --> 02:06:03,035
scam. It’s a death threat, you

3040
02:06:03,035 --> 02:06:04,703
know, just block that. That’s

3041
02:06:04,703 --> 02:06:06,805
a threat. I believe the proper

3042
02:06:06,805 --> 02:06:08,173
response would have been to

3043
02:06:08,173 --> 02:06:09,241
trace the call. I understand

3044
02:06:09,241 --> 02:06:10,876
that that happened afterwards.

3045
02:06:10,876 --> 02:06:13,712
But it should have been on the

3046
02:06:13,712 --> 02:06:14,947
initial visit. And and then

3047
02:06:14,947 --> 02:06:16,315
and the reporting that is an

3048
02:06:16,315 --> 02:06:16,949
everyday thing, which which is

3049
02:06:16,949 --> 02:06:20,786
just dismissing So I feel that

3050
02:06:20,786 --> 02:06:22,888
if sheriff is here, if you

3051
02:06:22,888 --> 02:06:23,989
could ask him what the

3052
02:06:23,989 --> 02:06:24,790
procedure is regarding that

3053
02:06:24,790 --> 02:06:25,357
and how that can be better

3054
02:06:25,357 --> 02:06:26,225
handle. Thank you for your

3055
02:06:26,225 --> 02:06:26,492
comments.

3056
02:06:26,492 --> 02:06:36,001
>> Next, Speaker. Anyone else?

3057
02:06:36,001 --> 02:06:40,139
Welcome again.

3058
02:06:40,139 --> 02:06:42,274
>> All right. Through just

3059
02:06:42,274 --> 02:06:43,475
like Chris Bryant, a So that

3060
02:06:43,475 --> 02:06:45,210
exchange earlier Ariza more

3061
02:06:45,210 --> 02:06:46,745
questions for Is there a

3062
02:06:46,745 --> 02:06:47,346
process that you guys have in

3063
02:06:47,346 --> 02:06:51,717
place that’ll that I guess.

3064
02:06:51,717 --> 02:06:52,584
Allows commissioners to

3065
02:06:52,584 --> 02:06:53,152
represents Citrus County at

3066
02:06:53,152 --> 02:06:56,188
some, whatever it is, whether

3067
02:06:56,188 --> 02:06:56,755
it’s a conference, whether

3068
02:06:56,755 --> 02:06:58,157
it’s a meeting or something

3069
02:06:58,157 --> 02:07:01,193
like that in the past, we’ve

3070
02:07:01,193 --> 02:07:01,760
seen commissioners kind of,

3071
02:07:01,760 --> 02:07:02,628
you know, doing their own

3072
02:07:02,628 --> 02:07:03,462
That’s kind of got us in

3073
02:07:03,462 --> 02:07:04,129
trouble before. And so it

3074
02:07:04,129 --> 02:07:05,764
appears that, you know, we

3075
02:07:05,764 --> 02:07:07,032
just heard we’re invited to

3076
02:07:07,032 --> 02:07:07,599
this thing. I never saw us

3077
02:07:07,599 --> 02:07:10,602
talk about that. I don’t think

3078
02:07:10,602 --> 02:07:14,006
any guys knew about that. And

3079
02:07:14,006 --> 02:07:14,540
the reason staff time and

3080
02:07:14,540 --> 02:07:15,908
resources to provide

3081
02:07:15,908 --> 02:07:18,377
presentations for this

3082
02:07:18,377 --> 02:07:18,977
particular thing. So kind of

3083
02:07:18,977 --> 02:07:22,548
raises questions on when you

3084
02:07:22,548 --> 02:07:23,148
guys is do things. If there’s

3085
02:07:23,148 --> 02:07:25,284
a process in place where the I

3086
02:07:25,284 --> 02:07:25,818
know guys have done young

3087
02:07:25,818 --> 02:07:27,386
individual projects,

3088
02:07:27,386 --> 02:07:27,953
commissioner car brought

3089
02:07:27,953 --> 02:07:28,787
forward Parts Co that was a

3090
02:07:28,787 --> 02:07:29,388
public discussion. The board

3091
02:07:29,388 --> 02:07:31,824
agreed to pursue that sports

3092
02:07:31,824 --> 02:07:32,524
field. That was public

3093
02:07:32,524 --> 02:07:33,125
discussion. The board agreed

3094
02:07:33,125 --> 02:07:37,930
to pursue that so I asked us

3095
02:07:37,930 --> 02:07:39,898
to look into doing a a process

3096
02:07:39,898 --> 02:07:41,100
of sorts that when someone

3097
02:07:41,100 --> 02:07:41,834
goes to represent the county

3098
02:07:41,834 --> 02:07:43,936
as an official capacity are

3099
02:07:43,936 --> 02:07:44,970
unofficial the title of this,

3100
02:07:44,970 --> 02:07:48,073
those have commissioner on it

3101
02:07:48,073 --> 02:07:49,708
and, you know, just kind have

3102
02:07:49,708 --> 02:07:51,777
a for that. Thank you.

3103
02:07:51,777 --> 02:07:56,215
>> Thank Speaker.

3104
02:07:56,215 --> 02:07:59,084
>> Jakarta, Liam Byrne, us to

3105
02:07:59,084 --> 02:08:00,319
talk a little bit about the

3106
02:08:00,319 --> 02:08:03,388
budget workshop. I attended a

3107
02:08:03,388 --> 02:08:05,190
workshop that commissioner

3108
02:08:05,190 --> 02:08:06,492
days had and as a new citizen,

3109
02:08:06,492 --> 02:08:06,959
I thought it was very

3110
02:08:06,959 --> 02:08:09,461
informative. You get to meet

3111
02:08:09,461 --> 02:08:11,263
the commit the constitutional

3112
02:08:11,263 --> 02:08:11,864
and you’re trying to grasp a

3113
02:08:11,864 --> 02:08:17,402
little bit more of what I

3114
02:08:17,402 --> 02:08:17,903
personally doubt it was

3115
02:08:17,903 --> 02:08:18,504
informative and that was poor

3116
02:08:18,504 --> 02:08:20,205
citizens would come and get a

3117
02:08:20,205 --> 02:08:21,206
better grip on what’s going

3118
02:08:21,206 --> 02:08:24,877
on. Budget Wise. Thank you.

3119
02:08:24,877 --> 02:08:30,082
>> Next, Speaker. Anyone else?

3120
02:08:30,082 --> 02:08:34,119
Close open to the public.

3121
02:08:34,119 --> 02:08:36,288
>> Actually that they was a

3122
02:08:36,288 --> 02:08:36,822
very sad day. And I know

3123
02:08:36,822 --> 02:08:38,323
there’s been controversy about

3124
02:08:38,323 --> 02:08:38,924
library, but I think that we

3125
02:08:38,924 --> 02:08:39,558
have a lot of proclamations. I

3126
02:08:39,558 --> 02:08:41,527
think it’s a great idea to do

3127
02:08:41,527 --> 02:08:45,164
a proclamation for Charlie

3128
02:08:45,164 --> 02:08:46,365
Kirk Day that we can put on

3129
02:08:46,365 --> 02:08:46,999
that October meeting if no one

3130
02:08:46,999 --> 02:08:52,471
has an issue with I don’t hear

3131
02:08:52,471 --> 02:08:56,375
any issues. So maybe we

3132
02:08:56,375 --> 02:08:59,178
>> Go ahead and do that. and

3133
02:08:59,178 --> 02:09:00,546
Mr. Brown also has a very good

3134
02:09:00,546 --> 02:09:04,850
point. I if someone now or in

3135
02:09:04,850 --> 02:09:06,451
the future is representing the

3136
02:09:06,451 --> 02:09:07,653
county, the board should know

3137
02:09:07,653 --> 02:09:09,521
about that because and I’m not

3138
02:09:09,521 --> 02:09:10,122
speaking even of now could be

3139
02:09:10,122 --> 02:09:13,525
10 years from now.

3140
02:09:13,525 --> 02:09:14,126
>> Board member can go and be

3141
02:09:14,126 --> 02:09:14,726
representing the county for

3142
02:09:14,726 --> 02:09:17,529
something that is adverse to

3143
02:09:17,529 --> 02:09:20,432
what the what the board is.

3144
02:09:20,432 --> 02:09:23,602
The board’s voted on

3145
02:09:23,602 --> 02:09:24,469
direction. So they’re

3146
02:09:24,469 --> 02:09:25,604
absolutely should be a process

3147
02:09:25,604 --> 02:09:26,171
in place that thank you for

3148
02:09:26,171 --> 02:09:29,641
bringing that up. Madam Chair.

3149
02:09:29,641 --> 02:09:30,609
>> Commissioner and brought it

3150
02:09:30,609 --> 02:09:31,243
up at least twice on the dice

3151
02:09:31,243 --> 02:09:34,046
in pride in 2 different

3152
02:09:34,046 --> 02:09:34,313
meetings.

3153
02:09:34,313 --> 02:09:34,980
>> want to talk about a

3154
02:09:34,980 --> 02:09:37,416
specific just it’s a good idea

3155
02:09:37,416 --> 02:09:38,350
to have a process that had a

3156
02:09:38,350 --> 02:09:39,151
problem with that. I send you

3157
02:09:39,151 --> 02:09:39,751
all would have spoken up when

3158
02:09:39,751 --> 02:09:43,689
I brought it up. Anyone else.

3159
02:09:43,689 --> 02:09:46,725
I think that it should be

3160
02:09:46,725 --> 02:09:47,259
right If you’re going to

3161
02:09:47,259 --> 02:09:51,330
travel and represent. I know

3162
02:09:51,330 --> 02:09:51,930
commissioner basis traveling

3163
02:09:51,930 --> 02:09:54,166
representative for F a C.

3164
02:09:54,166 --> 02:09:59,905
Florida. I was not aware you

3165
02:09:59,905 --> 02:10:02,541
seen, you if a but I didn’t

3166
02:10:02,541 --> 02:10:03,141
realize you were going to go

3167
02:10:03,141 --> 02:10:06,478
to Colorado. Okay. And and

3168
02:10:06,478 --> 02:10:09,448
that’s the thing. It must have

3169
02:10:09,448 --> 02:10:10,882
been brought real fast because

3170
02:10:10,882 --> 02:10:14,486
I don’t mind you go on. What

3171
02:10:14,486 --> 02:10:15,020
I’d like to know what the

3172
02:10:15,020 --> 02:10:16,421
conference was about. And I

3173
02:10:16,421 --> 02:10:18,390
know conservation lands and

3174
02:10:18,390 --> 02:10:22,261
that’s fine. Okay. But maybe

3175
02:10:22,261 --> 02:10:24,730
you should show 4 of us. What

3176
02:10:24,730 --> 02:10:27,566
you’re going to present. And

3177
02:10:27,566 --> 02:10:30,002
maybe that what we should talk

3178
02:10:30,002 --> 02:10:31,336
about, if you’re going to go Z

3179
02:10:31,336 --> 02:10:34,139
something and another seeing

3180
02:10:34,139 --> 02:10:34,773
that you should present it the

3181
02:10:34,773 --> 02:10:37,542
board. So that we can agree.

3182
02:10:37,542 --> 02:10:38,176
That’s a good presentation for

3183
02:10:38,176 --> 02:10:40,746
everybody see. Showing our

3184
02:10:40,746 --> 02:10:41,280
best foot forward for the

3185
02:10:41,280 --> 02:10:43,782
county. And I do like the fact

3186
02:10:43,782 --> 02:10:46,518
that you’re going. I think

3187
02:10:46,518 --> 02:10:48,754
that that of said that you’re

3188
02:10:48,754 --> 02:10:49,821
gone. I just don’t remember.

3189
02:10:49,821 --> 02:10:50,589
You bring back and you want

3190
02:10:50,589 --> 02:10:55,560
it. Colorado. For I mean, F a

3191
02:10:55,560 --> 02:10:56,361
C I a I push. You know, I

3192
02:10:56,361 --> 02:10:59,464
appreciate I go to those.

3193
02:10:59,464 --> 02:11:00,565
>> I think you brought during

3194
02:11:00,565 --> 02:11:03,602
a hearing not like as a item

3195
02:11:03,602 --> 02:11:04,736
are under your name or did

3196
02:11:04,736 --> 02:11:06,838
specifically did not bring it

3197
02:11:06,838 --> 02:11:07,339
up as an item? I’m not

3198
02:11:07,339 --> 02:11:08,607
suggesting all I brought it up

3199
02:11:08,607 --> 02:11:10,809
several times saying because

3200
02:11:10,809 --> 02:11:11,743
I’m quite proud of the fact

3201
02:11:11,743 --> 02:11:13,712
that Citrus County was asked

3202
02:11:13,712 --> 02:11:14,313
to participate in this. So I

3203
02:11:14,313 --> 02:11:14,846
brought it up during the

3204
02:11:14,846 --> 02:11:15,414
applications. Probably not.

3205
02:11:15,414 --> 02:11:17,249
You know. The appropriate

3206
02:11:17,249 --> 02:11:20,952
time. The boards.

3207
02:11:20,952 --> 02:11:22,220
>> We’re here when were

3208
02:11:22,220 --> 02:11:22,921
hearing occasion, it was

3209
02:11:22,921 --> 02:11:26,958
during my I heard you say last

3210
02:11:26,958 --> 02:11:28,260
board meetings at upstart at

3211
02:11:28,260 --> 02:11:28,994
least twice not more on this

3212
02:11:28,994 --> 02:11:33,665
board during regular.

3213
02:11:33,665 --> 02:11:34,499
>> Business meeting. Okay.

3214
02:11:34,499 --> 02:11:35,100
I’m sure Miles will be

3215
02:11:35,100 --> 02:11:37,836
happy to share with you. There

3216
02:11:37,836 --> 02:11:39,371
are 2 versions. One has my

3217
02:11:39,371 --> 02:11:41,907
voice over. If because it

3218
02:11:41,907 --> 02:11:43,875
helped in creating the video

3219
02:11:43,875 --> 02:11:47,512
if for reason, I’m not able to

3220
02:11:47,512 --> 02:11:48,113
travel next week because oh,

3221
02:11:48,113 --> 02:11:48,680
by the way of presenting 10

3222
02:11:48,680 --> 02:11:52,084
days. OK, so then they could

3223
02:11:52,084 --> 02:11:54,252
show that. But the whole set

3224
02:11:54,252 --> 02:11:55,554
up, you know, make sure you

3225
02:11:55,554 --> 02:11:56,088
get the lake and all that

3226
02:11:56,088 --> 02:11:58,256
other good stuff. The whole

3227
02:11:58,256 --> 02:11:58,857
set up is that there are 4 of

3228
02:11:58,857 --> 02:12:01,927
us presenting. And, you know,

3229
02:12:01,927 --> 02:12:03,628
the other 3, it’s Heather

3230
02:12:03,628 --> 02:12:06,231
again and rematch. I am the

3231
02:12:06,231 --> 02:12:09,868
leadoff hitter. They are

3232
02:12:09,868 --> 02:12:10,669
presenting the green print

3233
02:12:10,669 --> 02:12:12,437
that they did for Citrus

3234
02:12:12,437 --> 02:12:19,044
County to land conservation at

3235
02:12:19,044 --> 02:12:20,278
the conference to basically

3236
02:12:20,278 --> 02:12:22,114
showcase how maybe they could

3237
02:12:22,114 --> 02:12:23,815
do something similar in their

3238
02:12:23,815 --> 02:12:26,685
own communities. So I am and

3239
02:12:26,685 --> 02:12:27,652
basically welcoming them.

3240
02:12:27,652 --> 02:12:28,186
They’re going through the

3241
02:12:28,186 --> 02:12:30,722
green print for Citrus County.

3242
02:12:30,722 --> 02:12:31,289
So I am welcoming welcoming

3243
02:12:31,289 --> 02:12:32,624
them as their commissioner for

3244
02:12:32,624 --> 02:12:36,361
the next 90 minutes. They’re

3245
02:12:36,361 --> 02:12:36,962
pretending that they live in

3246
02:12:36,962 --> 02:12:37,496
Citrus County and they’re

3247
02:12:37,496 --> 02:12:38,096
going through the whole grain

3248
02:12:38,096 --> 02:12:40,832
print process. We should be

3249
02:12:40,832 --> 02:12:41,433
proud of this. This is a big

3250
02:12:41,433 --> 02:12:43,001
deal. That we got asked to do

3251
02:12:43,001 --> 02:12:49,474
this.

3252
02:12:49,474 --> 02:12:50,008
>> It is I am proud that

3253
02:12:50,008 --> 02:12:50,609
you’re doing this and that’s

3254
02:12:50,609 --> 02:12:53,378
why I’m trying to get across.

3255
02:12:53,378 --> 02:12:53,912
I know not me. Not me. We

3256
02:12:53,912 --> 02:12:55,380
should be proud for the

3257
02:12:55,380 --> 02:12:56,681
county, right? But I’m proud

3258
02:12:56,681 --> 02:12:57,716
that you are presenting for

3259
02:12:57,716 --> 02:12:59,684
the county and we have the

3260
02:12:59,684 --> 02:13:00,952
opposite. But I would have

3261
02:13:00,952 --> 02:13:01,553
preferred if I get to see the

3262
02:13:01,553 --> 02:13:05,690
video. And stuff and you’re

3263
02:13:05,690 --> 02:13:06,291
going to send me the link. So

3264
02:13:06,291 --> 02:13:06,825
I’m gonna get to see the

3265
02:13:06,825 --> 02:13:11,129
video. Maybe I missed you say

3266
02:13:11,129 --> 02:13:11,663
in because it wasn’t, you

3267
02:13:11,663 --> 02:13:15,100
know, by the way, I need be a

3268
02:13:15,100 --> 02:13:15,967
waste at such and such and I’m

3269
02:13:15,967 --> 02:13:19,771
going to be gone and, you

3270
02:13:19,771 --> 02:13:20,739
know, is one of those things

3271
02:13:20,739 --> 02:13:24,443

3275
02:13:29,314 --> 02:13:31,650
wonderful that you are. It is

3276
02:13:31,650 --> 02:13:32,717
wonderful that you are

3277
02:13:32,717 --> 02:13:35,220

regarding Pine Ridge is

3352
02:21:23,951 --> 02:21:26,020
erroneous. However, I believe

3353
02:21:26,020 --> 02:21:26,621
the decision this commission

3354
02:21:26,621 --> 02:21:27,221
recently made to him in the L

3355
02:21:27,221 --> 02:21:31,993
D C. And follow up to ensure

3356
02:21:31,993 --> 02:21:33,327
previous bocc decisions. It is

3357
02:21:33,327 --> 02:21:37,665
the most cost effective. And

3358
02:21:37,665 --> 02:21:40,435
is the most reliable cure and

3359
02:21:40,435 --> 02:21:43,638
lie that plan. I’m happy to

3360
02:21:43,638 --> 02:21:44,338
participate in this hearing as

3361
02:21:44,338 --> 02:21:45,606
scheduled as notice to

3362
02:21:45,606 --> 02:21:48,709
everyone due process knowing

3363
02:21:48,709 --> 02:21:50,144
that whatever decision is made

3364
02:21:50,144 --> 02:21:51,345
today can be folded into that

3365
02:21:51,345 --> 02:21:54,549
same process. So just just a

3366
02:21:54,549 --> 02:21:55,116
procedure that will let you

3367
02:21:55,116 --> 02:21:57,218
know, West and the it may have

3368
02:21:57,218 --> 02:21:58,853
no influence on you. But I

3369
02:21:58,853 --> 02:22:00,655
want. But, you know, we are

3370
02:22:00,655 --> 02:22:01,122
definitely wanting to

3371
02:22:01,122 --> 02:22:05,359
participate in this process.

3372
02:22:05,359 --> 02:22:06,527
Citrus Fields is the owner of

3373
02:22:06,527 --> 02:22:07,595
ClearView States Dri which was

3374
02:22:07,595 --> 02:22:11,999
established in 1978. This

3375
02:22:11,999 --> 02:22:14,001
application concerns 80.0, 8,

3376
02:22:14,001 --> 02:22:15,937
6, acres of non-residential

3377
02:22:15,937 --> 02:22:17,772
property situated along State

3378
02:22:17,772 --> 02:22:20,408
Road. 44, the subject property

3379
02:22:20,408 --> 02:22:22,510
was designated for 450,000

3380
02:22:22,510 --> 02:22:23,444
Square Feet of commercial

3381
02:22:23,444 --> 02:22:26,414
space. 31 years ago. In 1995,

3382
02:22:26,414 --> 02:22:30,151
at that time commercial

3383
02:22:30,151 --> 02:22:31,018
development standards and the

3384
02:22:31,018 --> 02:22:31,486
county standards for

3385
02:22:31,486 --> 02:22:32,053
commercial development was

3386
02:22:32,053 --> 02:22:36,757
different. We are seeking to

3387
02:22:36,757 --> 02:22:37,391
increase the square commercial

3388
02:22:37,391 --> 02:22:39,494
use in the dri by 358,600

3389
02:22:39,494 --> 02:22:44,398
square feet. The dri numbers

3390
02:22:44,398 --> 02:22:44,966
are insufficient by today’s

3391
02:22:44,966 --> 02:22:45,466
commercial development

3392
02:22:45,466 --> 02:22:48,402
standards. I’m sure you

3393
02:22:48,402 --> 02:22:49,504
understand that to be the case

3394
02:22:49,504 --> 02:22:50,104
but wanted to offer up some

3395
02:22:50,104 --> 02:22:50,605
relevant background and

3396
02:22:50,605 --> 02:22:54,342
further evidence. To view

3397
02:22:54,342 --> 02:22:54,876

3413
02:23:26,841 --> 02:23:27,408
this includes the landscape

3414
02:23:27,408 --> 02:23:31,379
buffer. To be clear, we are

3415
02:23:31,379 --> 02:23:33,247
not wanting to eliminate

3416
02:23:33,247 --> 02:23:34,248
buffer. Instead, we want to

3417
02:23:34,248 --> 02:23:37,084
commit to meet the counties

3418
02:23:37,084 --> 02:23:38,686
standards for buffering just

3419
02:23:38,686 --> 02:23:39,287

Square feet Per acre. We are

3430
02:24:07,448 --> 02:24:08,015
respectfully requesting an

3431
02:24:08,015 --> 02:24:10,551
increase of ClearView states

3432
02:24:10,551 --> 02:24:11,686

3433
02:24:11,686 --> 02:24:17,124
additional 358 600. From for

3434
02:24:17,124 --> 02:24:17,858
to wait 600 across its 80.0,

3435
02:24:17,858 --> 02:24:22,663
8, 6, acres. The dri currently

3436
02:24:22,663 --> 02:24:25,499
permits a variance of up to

3437
02:24:25,499 --> 02:24:26,701
540,000 Square feet of GNC.

3438
02:24:26,701 --> 02:24:28,336
From that perspective, the

3439
02:24:28,336 --> 02:24:30,171
request is increase of only

3440
02:24:30,171 --> 02:24:36,577

Square Feet. This request

3442
02:24:37,678 --> 02:24:38,212
increase would raise the

3443
02:24:38,212 --> 02:24:38,813
allowable commercial

3444
02:24:38,813 --> 02:24:39,747

02:25:55,790 --> 02:25:56,290
impose a square foot. A

3479
02:25:56,290 --> 02:26:00,461

me, which I appreciate. This

3513
02:27:14,502 --> 02:27:15,302

3526
02:27:34,855 --> 02:27:35,723
had to turn it sideways if

3527
02:27:35,723 --> 02:27:37,725
you’re on the slide. But on

02:27:43,030 --> 02:27:45,099
been commercial since 1978.

3533
02:27:45,099 --> 02:27:46,767
It’s not proposed to change.

3534
02:27:46,767 --> 02:27:47,334
There was some confusion at

3535
02:27:47,334 --> 02:27:49,403
the PDC with some of the

3536
02:27:49,403 --> 02:27:51,639
residents that we’re doubling

3537
02:27:51,639 --> 02:27:52,206
commercial. They’re they’re

3538
02:27:52,206 --> 02:27:54,742
asking to expand commercial.

3539
02:27:54,742 --> 02:27:55,376
They’re not. They’re still

3540
02:27:55,376 --> 02:27:55,976
commercial. They’re staying

3541
02:27:55,976 --> 02:27:56,610
commercial that been like that

3542
02:27:56,610 --> 02:27:59,947
since 1978. However, they are

3543
02:27:59,947 --> 02:28:00,581
trying to expand the amount of

3544
02:28:00,581 --> 02:28:02,316
square footage as he pointed

3545
02:28:02,316 --> 02:28:04,118
out. So right now they’re

3546
02:28:04,118 --> 02:28:06,987
permitted for 550,000

3547
02:28:06,987 --> 02:28:07,521
square-foot of commercial

3548
02:28:07,521 --> 02:28:08,155
expanded throughout that honey

3549
02:28:08,155 --> 02:28:11,058
comb the area. And you just

3550
02:28:11,058 --> 02:28:12,026
heard testimony that about

3551
02:28:12,026 --> 02:28:13,294
200,000 of that is is proposed

3552
02:28:13,294 --> 02:28:15,196
to be taken up by Home Depot

3553
02:28:15,196 --> 02:28:16,163
and the out parcels. We

3554
02:28:16,163 --> 02:28:16,730
haven’t seen permitting for

3555
02:28:16,730 --> 02:28:19,066
the out parcels yet. So I

3556
02:28:19,066 --> 02:28:19,667
didn’t have that exact figure

3557
02:28:19,667 --> 02:28:23,103
in the staff report, but that

3558
02:28:23,103 --> 02:28:25,272
leaves them with about 350,000

3559
02:28:25,272 --> 02:28:26,407
for the remaining acreage.

3560
02:28:26,407 --> 02:28:28,108
That’s not meant much for that

3561
02:28:28,108 --> 02:28:29,510
amount of square footage. That

3562
02:28:29,510 --> 02:28:32,079
amount of acreage on. 44, so

3563
02:28:32,079 --> 02:28:33,447
they are proposing to increase

3564
02:28:33,447 --> 02:28:36,250
this to a total of 808,600

3565
02:28:36,250 --> 02:28:39,787
from 550,000. So they’re

3566
02:28:39,787 --> 02:28:40,588
planning and development

3567
02:28:40,588 --> 02:28:42,523
Commission did review this on

3568
02:28:42,523 --> 02:28:44,458
August, 8th 2026 and they did

3569
02:28:44,458 --> 02:28:46,560
recommend approval with the 2

3570
02:28:46,560 --> 02:28:47,628
conditions, one that the

3571
02:28:47,628 --> 02:28:48,596
commercial square footage

3572
02:28:48,596 --> 02:28:52,566
increases to 808,600. And

3573
02:28:52,566 --> 02:28:53,467
that’s number 2 that for those

3574
02:28:53,467 --> 02:28:55,302
areas they do have to comply

3575
02:28:55,302 --> 02:28:56,570
with all existing standards

3576
02:28:56,570 --> 02:28:57,104
and the dri and the Land

3577
02:28:57,104 --> 02:28:58,939
Development code. That’s all I

3578
02:28:58,939 --> 02:29:02,743
have. Or do you have any

3579
02:29:02,743 --> 02:29:08,949
questions for MS? Could too?

3580
02:29:08,949 --> 02:29:09,817
>> At this time, then I will

3581
02:29:09,817 --> 02:29:12,086
open it up to public comment.

3582
02:29:12,086 --> 02:29:14,889
would like to speak on this.

3583
02:29:14,889 --> 02:29:15,990
You have 3 minutes at the

3584
02:29:15,990 --> 02:29:18,692
podium. If you’re speaking for

3585
02:29:18,692 --> 02:29:19,894
an organization, police say

3586
02:29:19,894 --> 02:29:20,995
that into the microphone we’ll

3587
02:29:20,995 --> 02:29:21,829
check. The clerk will give me

3588
02:29:21,829 --> 02:29:22,396
an odd one where than other

3589
02:29:22,396 --> 02:29:25,766
another.

3590
02:29:25,766 --> 02:29:26,333
>> The clerk must have your

3591
02:29:26,333 --> 02:29:27,201

3597
02:29:35,943 --> 02:29:39,046
welcome. Good afternoon, Madam

3598
02:29:39,046 --> 02:29:39,313
Chairman.

3599
02:29:39,313 --> 02:29:40,915
>> PJ off-camera, Citrus

3600
02:29:40,915 --> 02:29:42,483
County. So I’d like a little

3601
02:29:42,483 --> 02:29:43,050
clarification. You’re being

3602
02:29:43,050 --> 02:29:46,287
asked to vote on an expansion.

3603
02:29:46,287 --> 02:29:50,658
>> Of buildable property. With

3604
02:29:50,658 --> 02:29:51,258
nothing presented to tell you

3605
02:29:51,258 --> 02:29:53,260
what it could be. It’s just

3606
02:29:53,260 --> 02:29:56,263
going to be commercial. He

3607
02:29:56,263 --> 02:29:58,299
could end up with the mess. We

3608
02:29:58,299 --> 02:30:00,134
have it for 91 and normal.

3609
02:30:00,134 --> 02:30:04,939
Bryant. We could be all

3610
02:30:04,939 --> 02:30:05,739
storage facilities. We could

3611
02:30:05,739 --> 02:30:07,308
have whatever backing up onto

3612
02:30:07,308 --> 02:30:09,577
the residents who clearly, you

3613
02:30:09,577 --> 02:30:12,479
know, their realtors when they

3614
02:30:12,479 --> 02:30:13,447
sold in their properties. And

3615
02:30:13,447 --> 02:30:14,048
citrus still should have told

3616
02:30:14,048 --> 02:30:16,517
him that those trees, we’re

3617
02:30:16,517 --> 02:30:18,452
only, you know, getting

3618
02:30:18,452 --> 02:30:19,420
agricultural exemption so they

3619
02:30:19,420 --> 02:30:20,521
couldn’t pay to didn’t have to

3620
02:30:20,521 --> 02:30:22,823
pay full taxes built stuff.

3621
02:30:22,823 --> 02:30:24,158
There. But I don’t think it’s

3622
02:30:24,158 --> 02:30:27,761
fair to the residents get that

3623
02:30:27,761 --> 02:30:30,731
you consider supporting the

3624
02:30:30,731 --> 02:30:31,198
developer against the

3625
02:30:31,198 --> 02:30:31,799
residents and sisters county.

3626
02:30:31,799 --> 02:30:32,399
I think we just did this last

3627
02:30:32,399 --> 02:30:35,169
week did away with Pine Ridge

3628
02:30:35,169 --> 02:30:38,772
talking about who you actually

3629
02:30:38,772 --> 02:30:40,708
are representing. I think this

3630
02:30:40,708 --> 02:30:41,275
is kid say it’s a bad plan

3631
02:30:41,275 --> 02:30:43,344
because of no plan. There. So

3632
02:30:43,344 --> 02:30:47,147
what do you vote on yet? What

3633
02:30:47,147 --> 02:30:48,248
kind of legacy is this going

3634
02:30:48,248 --> 02:30:49,249
to leave for you all 10 years

3635
02:30:49,249 --> 02:30:52,019
from now? When traffic is a

3636
02:30:52,019 --> 02:30:53,954
disaster? And, you know, we

3637
02:30:53,954 --> 02:30:55,389
still got the debacle at

3638
02:30:55,389 --> 02:30:57,791
Kensington that never should

3639
02:30:57,791 --> 02:30:58,425
have happened. What’s going to

3640
02:30:58,425 --> 02:31:01,195
happen here? People what’s

3641
02:31:01,195 --> 02:31:04,965
going to happen with with just

3642
02:31:04,965 --> 02:31:06,033
accessing everything. They

3643
02:31:06,033 --> 02:31:06,567
have. All the property in

3644
02:31:06,567 --> 02:31:07,234
Citrus Hills is hands that

3645
02:31:07,234 --> 02:31:09,203
they could also do commercial

3646
02:31:09,203 --> 02:31:11,105
on. It’s not a big thing. They

3647
02:31:11,105 --> 02:31:12,306
just they just want a bigger

3648
02:31:12,306 --> 02:31:14,141
bite of the Apple. They sold

3649
02:31:14,141 --> 02:31:15,142
off all of this property, the

3650
02:31:15,142 --> 02:31:16,176
Home Depot oops. Suddenly we

3651
02:31:16,176 --> 02:31:17,945
don’t have enough to make even

3652
02:31:17,945 --> 02:31:18,812
more profit. That’s not your

3653
02:31:18,812 --> 02:31:20,914
full. That’s not my fault.

3654
02:31:20,914 --> 02:31:21,515
That’s their fault for having

3655
02:31:21,515 --> 02:31:28,756
poor planning. thing is is

3656
02:31:28,756 --> 02:31:29,757
this is this is not good. This

3657
02:31:29,757 --> 02:31:31,859
is not the way we should be

3658
02:31:31,859 --> 02:31:33,160
doing things. And I I implore

3659
02:31:33,160 --> 02:31:35,029
you to do the right thing.

3660
02:31:35,029 --> 02:31:37,865
Vote for the residents until

3661
02:31:37,865 --> 02:31:39,033
they bring you a solid plan,

3662
02:31:39,033 --> 02:31:40,234
telling you what they want to

3663
02:31:40,234 --> 02:31:41,168
do there and what’s going to

3664
02:31:41,168 --> 02:31:42,803
happen. You need to vote no on

3665
02:31:42,803 --> 02:31:44,171
this. Thank Thank you for your

3666
02:31:44,171 --> 02:31:47,241
comments next. Speaker. The

3667
02:31:47,241 --> 02:31:47,875
one that’s would like to speak

3668
02:31:47,875 --> 02:31:58,952
in All right, Kris Bryant

3669
02:31:58,952 --> 02:31:59,553
centers inside her home find

3670
02:31:59,553 --> 02:32:00,120
the full 5 minutes. But ask

3671
02:32:00,120 --> 02:32:04,525
for that. So I wanted to come

3672
02:32:04,525 --> 02:32:06,560
up today. I want to formally

3673
02:32:06,560 --> 02:32:07,961
for Commissioner Davis to

3674
02:32:07,961 --> 02:32:08,762
recuse yourself from this vote

3675
02:32:08,762 --> 02:32:11,899
and explain the reasons for

3676
02:32:11,899 --> 02:32:14,768
that state statute. 2, 8, 6,

3677
02:32:14,768 --> 02:32:15,936
0, 1, 2, on this requires you

3678
02:32:15,936 --> 02:32:17,438
guys to make votes for things

3679
02:32:17,438 --> 02:32:18,038
that come to you guys. It’s a

3680
02:32:18,038 --> 02:32:20,307
state requirement to do that.

3681
02:32:20,307 --> 02:32:20,908
>> However, there’s a carve

3682
02:32:20,908 --> 02:32:21,508
out for that at the bottom of

3683
02:32:21,508 --> 02:32:23,777
the wreath at into the record.

3684
02:32:23,777 --> 02:32:25,746
If the official decision

3685
02:32:25,746 --> 02:32:27,815
ruling or act occurs in the

3686
02:32:27,815 --> 02:32:28,782
context of a quasi judicial

3687
02:32:28,782 --> 02:32:30,084
proceeding member may abstain

3688
02:32:30,084 --> 02:32:32,119
from voting on such matter at

3689
02:32:32,119 --> 02:32:32,953
the absent Haitian is to

3690
02:32:32,953 --> 02:32:33,921
assure a fair proceeding free

3691
02:32:33,921 --> 02:32:34,421
for potential bias and

3692
02:32:34,421 --> 02:32:37,858
prejudice. The key words there

3693
02:32:37,858 --> 02:32:39,660
are free from potential bias

3694
02:32:39,660 --> 02:32:40,260
and prejudice months put this

3695
02:32:40,260 --> 02:32:44,832
in for the record. Going back

3696
02:32:44,832 --> 02:32:45,999
to the party meeting. read a

3697
02:32:45,999 --> 02:32:47,468
quote, you guys for the record

3698
02:32:47,468 --> 02:32:48,001
I have heard this is from

3699
02:32:48,001 --> 02:32:50,104
Commissioner Davis August

3700
02:32:50,104 --> 02:32:51,839
25th. I’ve heard multiple

3701
02:32:51,839 --> 02:32:52,940
people make fun of me for

3702
02:32:52,940 --> 02:32:54,875
calling myself in the girl. I

3703
02:32:54,875 --> 02:32:55,509
had the courage to prove it in

3704
02:32:55,509 --> 02:32:57,911
3 and a half weeks. I’m

3705
02:32:57,911 --> 02:32:58,679
actually a speaker at National

02:33:08,989 --> 02:33:09,790
that was brought to the board

3716
02:33:09,790 --> 02:33:12,926
on October. 21st 2025. and

3717
02:33:12,926 --> 02:33:15,863
there was a list of different

3718
02:33:15,863 --> 02:33:16,797
donors that donated up to

3719
02:33:16,797 --> 02:33:18,999
$43,000 for this project to

3720
02:33:18,999 --> 02:33:19,800
1000 of which a minimum 2000,

3721
02:33:19,800 --> 02:33:21,268
which was from the tempos, the

3722
02:33:21,268 --> 02:33:21,902
family, as entered into the

3723
02:33:21,902 --> 02:33:26,907
record as well. The reason

3724
02:33:26,907 --> 02:33:27,775
bring that up is that we don’t

3725
02:33:27,775 --> 02:33:29,710
have green print study without

3726
02:33:29,710 --> 02:33:30,978
the tempos, the family and

3727
02:33:30,978 --> 02:33:33,013
others donating to that

3728
02:33:33,013 --> 02:33:34,181
project. So project was

3729
02:33:34,181 --> 02:33:36,083
brought to us for the for the

3730
02:33:36,083 --> 02:33:37,050
green France. It was gotten

3731
02:33:37,050 --> 02:33:38,285
donations for that. Now we

3732
02:33:38,285 --> 02:33:39,620
have a family that’s not

3733
02:33:39,620 --> 02:33:40,220
presenting to the board today

3734
02:33:40,220 --> 02:33:40,854
for a project that is donating

3735
02:33:40,854 --> 02:33:44,291
money for that further.

3736
02:33:44,291 --> 02:33:45,025
Commissioner Davis is

3737
02:33:45,025 --> 02:33:46,527
traveling to Denver to speak

3738
02:33:46,527 --> 02:33:48,462
on behalf of apparently Citrus

3739
02:33:48,462 --> 02:33:52,332
County for this co-presidents

3740
02:33:52,332 --> 02:33:54,234
present People Co presenting

3741
02:33:54,234 --> 02:33:56,403
with her from the North will

3742
02:33:56,403 --> 02:33:58,172
interest. So the very company

3743
02:33:58,172 --> 02:34:01,341
that we have a contract with Citrus County that we’re

3744
02:34:01,341 --> 02:34:02,876
getting money from from these

3745
02:34:02,876 --> 02:34:03,610
donations. She’s now they’re

3746
02:34:03,610 --> 02:34:07,447
out there doing the speaking.

3747
02:34:07,447 --> 02:34:08,615
So again, free from potential

3748
02:34:08,615 --> 02:34:09,216
bias reason person with this

3749
02:34:09,216 --> 02:34:12,920
record well. A result personal

3750
02:34:12,920 --> 02:34:13,687
look at this and say this is a

3751
02:34:13,687 --> 02:34:15,389
quid pro growth. We got a

3752
02:34:15,389 --> 02:34:16,156
$2000 from the temples family

3753
02:34:16,156 --> 02:34:18,992
or minimum of $2000. Don’t

3754
02:34:18,992 --> 02:34:20,060
know the exact amounts for the

3755
02:34:20,060 --> 02:34:22,162
green printing that came

3756
02:34:22,162 --> 02:34:24,064
forward. And now the

3757
02:34:24,064 --> 02:34:24,698
Commissioner Davis is going to

3758
02:34:24,698 --> 02:34:26,099
Denver to speak on reprinting.

3759
02:34:26,099 --> 02:34:26,700
again, we wouldn’t have once

3760
02:34:26,700 --> 02:34:31,071
we got those nations. So there

3761
02:34:31,071 --> 02:34:32,773
is clear bias potential there

3762
02:34:32,773 --> 02:34:33,340
for the general public’s. I

3763
02:34:33,340 --> 02:34:33,907
wanted to put that into the

3764
02:34:33,907 --> 02:34:36,844
record. Should anyone she

3765
02:34:36,844 --> 02:34:37,444
continues to on this. Should

3766
02:34:37,444 --> 02:34:38,212
anyone want to appeal for you

3767
02:34:38,212 --> 02:34:41,248
guys? Something?

3768
02:34:41,248 --> 02:34:41,882
>> Thank you for your comments

3769
02:34:41,882 --> 02:34:45,686
next. Speaker. What anyone

3770
02:34:45,686 --> 02:34:46,253
else like to speak on this

3771
02:34:46,253 --> 02:34:49,990
application? Close the public

3772
02:34:49,990 --> 02:34:58,365
portion of the hearing. Mr.

3773
02:34:58,365 --> 02:34:58,966
Able t have any rebuttal, but

3774
02:34:58,966 --> 02:35:04,771
you would like.

3775
02:35:04,771 --> 02:35:08,075
>> two-pointer raised. The GNC

3776
02:35:08,075 --> 02:35:09,076
square-foot is what’s being

3777
02:35:09,076 --> 02:35:12,246
asked to be changed here. Not

3778
02:35:12,246 --> 02:35:12,846
a change in plans so we don’t

3779
02:35:12,846 --> 02:35:14,982
have any plans the way

3780
02:35:14,982 --> 02:35:16,817
commercial development works

3781
02:35:16,817 --> 02:35:18,518
is literally we have find

3782
02:35:18,518 --> 02:35:19,119
people interested putting in

3783
02:35:19,119 --> 02:35:19,620
the current commercial

3784
02:35:19,620 --> 02:35:23,323
development with the blank.

3785
02:35:23,323 --> 02:35:23,957
They didn’t come to us and

3786
02:35:23,957 --> 02:35:24,825
ask, you know, can it? And

3787
02:35:24,825 --> 02:35:27,895
then ask the county can this

3788
02:35:27,895 --> 02:35:28,462
fit? Can it work where they

3789
02:35:28,462 --> 02:35:31,398
have to do and then the

3790
02:35:31,398 --> 02:35:31,965
commercial buyer would say,

3791
02:35:31,965 --> 02:35:36,236
yes, I’m in or out. You can’t

3792
02:35:36,236 --> 02:35:36,870
put the cart before the horse.

3793
02:35:36,870 --> 02:35:37,471
I can. You be a plan for some

3794
02:35:37,471 --> 02:35:38,839
Not going to be here until

3795
02:35:38,839 --> 02:35:40,641
they come to us. So there has

3796
02:35:40,641 --> 02:35:44,945
to and and appropriate.

3797
02:35:44,945 --> 02:35:46,813
Doesn’t use of the land before

3798
02:35:46,813 --> 02:35:47,381
that commercial buyer will

3799
02:35:47,381 --> 02:35:48,815
come to you. Or to us in this

3800
02:35:48,815 --> 02:35:58,892
case. The other I don’t want

3801
02:35:58,892 --> 02:36:00,727
to I’ve never had any

3802
02:36:00,727 --> 02:36:01,828
conversation with Commissioner

3803
02:36:01,828 --> 02:36:03,563
Davis about anything about

3804
02:36:03,563 --> 02:36:04,731
Denver, trips or anything. I

3805
02:36:04,731 --> 02:36:05,399
don’t have any. I think what

3806
02:36:05,399 --> 02:36:05,966
she says same thing I would

3807
02:36:05,966 --> 02:36:07,734
tell you there’s been no

3808
02:36:07,734 --> 02:36:13,006
communication about this.

3809
02:36:13,006 --> 02:36:13,540
that’s close. I can say I

3810
02:36:13,540 --> 02:36:14,107
don’t know why there’s even

3811
02:36:14,107 --> 02:36:22,449
up. Suggestion of impropriety.

3812
02:36:22,449 --> 02:36:23,016
>> Or we can deliberate. I

3813
02:36:23,016 --> 02:36:27,854
will when I listen to

3814
02:36:27,854 --> 02:36:29,122
everything, one of the

3815
02:36:29,122 --> 02:36:29,957
speakers have commented. I am

3816
02:36:29,957 --> 02:36:31,892
one person that will always

3817
02:36:31,892 --> 02:36:34,094
say we the district to the

3818
02:36:34,094 --> 02:36:34,695
plan and the difference

3819
02:36:34,695 --> 02:36:37,831
between Pine Ridge was zoning

3820
02:36:37,831 --> 02:36:38,398
changes. That was really a

3821
02:36:38,398 --> 02:36:41,601
change in plan. This to me is

3822
02:36:41,601 --> 02:36:43,971
not a change plan. The

3823
02:36:43,971 --> 02:36:45,172
commercial area. So if I was

3824
02:36:45,172 --> 02:36:48,475
to live in that community. And

3825
02:36:48,475 --> 02:36:49,910
see what that b*** up against,

3826
02:36:49,910 --> 02:36:53,046
it would have been commercial.

3827
02:36:53,046 --> 02:36:53,714
That’s not changing. There’s

3828
02:36:53,714 --> 02:36:55,449
no change in that zoning.

3829
02:36:55,449 --> 02:36:56,550
There’s no change in the plan

3830
02:36:56,550 --> 02:37:01,922
that was always set to

3831
02:37:01,922 --> 02:37:02,622
commercial. So in my eyes, the

3832
02:37:02,622 --> 02:37:14,101
2 are not the same.

3833
02:37:14,101 --> 02:37:18,805
>> Make a that we approve 2,

3834
02:37:18,805 --> 02:37:19,840
0, 2, 6, Dash, 0, 0, 0, 0, 6,

02:37:19,840 --> 02:37:23,944

Barrack all those in favor.

3839
02:37:27,447 --> 02:37:29,282
Aye, any opposed motion

3840
02:37:29,282 --> 02:37:34,054
carries 5, 0,

3841
02:37:34,054 --> 02:37:35,088

today. Congratulations. And we

3843
02:37:36,857 --> 02:37:37,391

02:39:14,788 --> 02:39:15,355
testify when you come up to

3900
02:39:15,355 --> 02:39:17,424
the mike, if you could just

3901
02:39:17,424 --> 02:39:18,024
>> explain that you’ve taken

3902
02:39:18,024 --> 02:39:18,525
the oath. That would be

3903
02:39:18,525 --> 02:39:19,659
helpful. Thank you. Thank you.

3904
02:39:19,659 --> 02:39:23,663
I appreciate that with me here

3905
02:39:23,663 --> 02:39:24,664
today is Mr. Andrew help with

3906
02:39:24,664 --> 02:39:26,666
one Oak Homosassa LLC.

3907
02:39:26,666 --> 02:39:27,601
>> As well as Troy Carter was

3908
02:39:27,601 --> 02:39:31,505
Suncoast Civil Engineering and

3909
02:39:31,505 --> 02:39:32,272
Jon Snow master arborist with

3910
02:39:32,272 --> 02:39:37,043
Tree checkup. Can start the

3911
02:39:37,043 --> 02:39:40,147
presentation.

3912
02:39:40,147 --> 02:39:41,148
>> It’s actually a PDF. So I’m

3913
02:39:41,148 --> 02:39:41,715
not sure it’s going to move

3914
02:39:41,715 --> 02:39:50,123
for some reason. engineering

3915
02:39:50,123 --> 02:39:50,757
is a power point, but this one

3916
02:39:50,757 --> 02:39:54,461
is a PDF so they can move it.

3917
02:39:54,461 --> 02:39:55,061
>> This is PD twenty-twenty 6

3918
02:39:55,061 --> 02:40:02,202
Dash, 0, 0, 0, 4, this is a

3919
02:40:02,202 --> 02:40:03,036
request for APD for a quick

3920
02:40:03,036 --> 02:40:03,837
service restaurant with an

3921
02:40:03,837 --> 02:40:06,239
online pick up now as well as

3922
02:40:06,239 --> 02:40:09,376
the drive-thru coffee shop. So

3923
02:40:09,376 --> 02:40:11,545
just a little bit of

3924
02:40:11,545 --> 02:40:12,479
information, general site data

3925
02:40:12,479 --> 02:40:16,416
1.5 acres last. It is

3926
02:40:16,416 --> 02:40:17,050
completely surrounded by GNC

3927
02:40:17,050 --> 02:40:17,751
uses both land, use

3928
02:40:17,751 --> 02:40:21,588
designations and zoning to the

3929
02:40:21,588 --> 02:40:22,822
north. You have the racetrac

3930
02:40:22,822 --> 02:40:24,257
gas station to the South. You

3931
02:40:24,257 --> 02:40:26,560
have a vacant pharmacy

3932
02:40:26,560 --> 02:40:29,396
building to the east. You have

3933
02:40:29,396 --> 02:40:30,363
a medical office and to the

3934
02:40:30,363 --> 02:40:32,933
West across us 19, you have a

3935
02:40:32,933 --> 02:40:35,302
retail shopping center with

3936
02:40:35,302 --> 02:40:35,869
Publix and related. How out

3937
02:40:35,869 --> 02:40:39,773
parcels? We can move next

3938
02:40:39,773 --> 02:40:41,074
slide. So just a little

3939
02:40:41,074 --> 02:40:45,545
history on the site, it is a

3940
02:40:45,545 --> 02:40:46,546
already develop site. There

3941
02:40:46,546 --> 02:40:47,047
are 3 vacant commercial

3942
02:40:47,047 --> 02:40:50,517
buildings on site. There is

3943
02:40:50,517 --> 02:40:51,618
essentially no storm water

3944
02:40:51,618 --> 02:40:52,219
right now, which would change

3945
02:40:52,219 --> 02:40:55,622
with this approval in 2020.

3946
02:40:55,622 --> 02:40:56,456
There was a previous PD

3947
02:40:56,456 --> 02:40:58,592
approval that has since

3948
02:40:58,592 --> 02:41:00,493
expired. But I wanted to make

3949
02:41:00,493 --> 02:41:03,530
sure you’re aware some of the

3950
02:41:03,530 --> 02:41:05,298
previous conditions that were

3951
02:41:05,298 --> 02:41:07,467
approved specifically. There

3952
02:41:07,467 --> 02:41:08,068
was impervious surface ratio

3953
02:41:08,068 --> 02:41:11,438
of 75% allowed. That is a 5%

3954
02:41:11,438 --> 02:41:12,439
deviation from the 70% under

3955
02:41:12,439 --> 02:41:17,777
code for Chancey as well

3956
02:41:17,777 --> 02:41:18,345
surrounding buffers. There

3957
02:41:18,345 --> 02:41:23,783
will 2 5 foot buffers along

3958
02:41:23,783 --> 02:41:24,985
the south and East property

3959
02:41:24,985 --> 02:41:25,752
line, which is a reduction

3960
02:41:25,752 --> 02:41:27,520
from the 10 foot buffer that’s

3961
02:41:27,520 --> 02:41:28,555
required. That is another

3962
02:41:28,555 --> 02:41:30,090
deviation that we are also

3963
02:41:30,090 --> 02:41:34,494
requesting with this PD. We

3964
02:41:34,494 --> 02:41:36,429
move ahead. So here’s just a

3965
02:41:36,429 --> 02:41:37,063
view from the southeast corner

3966
02:41:37,063 --> 02:41:39,599
looking northwest to give you

3967
02:41:39,599 --> 02:41:41,968
an idea of the property.

3968
02:41:41,968 --> 02:41:42,602
That’s the bacon car wash that

3969
02:41:42,602 --> 02:41:46,006
sitting at that corner. Here

3970
02:41:46,006 --> 02:41:46,840
is from the northeast corner

3971
02:41:46,840 --> 02:41:49,776
looking south last. There you

3972
02:41:49,776 --> 02:41:50,877
see one of the specimen trees

3973
02:41:50,877 --> 02:41:52,245
that’s located in the right of

3974
02:41:52,245 --> 02:41:52,879
way, which will, of course, be

3975
02:41:52,879 --> 02:41:54,781
preserved or not. Not impacted

3976
02:41:54,781 --> 02:41:59,753
by this property project next.

3977
02:41:59,753 --> 02:42:00,854
This is from the southwest

3978
02:42:00,854 --> 02:42:02,722
corner looking north

3979
02:42:02,722 --> 02:42:03,323
intersection of West Aqueduct

3980
02:42:03,323 --> 02:42:06,793
and U.S. 19. So here is the

3981
02:42:06,793 --> 02:42:09,796
proposed PD plan and I’m just

3982
02:42:09,796 --> 02:42:10,397
going to run through it fast

3983
02:42:10,397 --> 02:42:12,232
and give you some of the

3984
02:42:12,232 --> 02:42:14,601
basics. As we mentioned.

3985
02:42:14,601 --> 02:42:17,203
That’s right. Now Jea and see

3986
02:42:17,203 --> 02:42:18,004
we are asking for an mpdu

3987
02:42:18,004 --> 02:42:21,574
zoning. Quick service

3988
02:42:21,574 --> 02:42:22,275
restaurant and the drive-thru

3989
02:42:22,275 --> 02:42:25,945
coffee shop has mentioned the

3990
02:42:25,945 --> 02:42:26,546
quick service restaurant with

3991
02:42:26,546 --> 02:42:29,049
the online pickup window. We

3992
02:42:29,049 --> 02:42:30,116
did talk at the planning

3993
02:42:30,116 --> 02:42:30,750
Commission that is proposed to

3994
02:42:30,750 --> 02:42:33,920
be a Chipotle. The online

3995
02:42:33,920 --> 02:42:35,689
pickup window. Just so you

3996
02:42:35,689 --> 02:42:36,189
know how it functions a

3997
02:42:36,189 --> 02:42:36,823
relatively new. They’ve had it

3998
02:42:36,823 --> 02:42:38,758
for a couple years, but

3999
02:42:38,758 --> 02:42:39,592
there’s no order board. So

4000
02:42:39,592 --> 02:42:40,427
it’s not the typical drive

4001
02:42:40,427 --> 02:42:41,494
through that. You’re used to.

4002
02:42:41,494 --> 02:42:44,698
There’s no wind driving up

4003
02:42:44,698 --> 02:42:45,231
placing an order and then

4004
02:42:45,231 --> 02:42:47,634
paying out the window. They

4005
02:42:47,634 --> 02:42:48,802
all have to be done through

4006
02:42:48,802 --> 02:42:49,669
the app or online. They’re

4007
02:42:49,669 --> 02:42:52,872
already paid for or, you know,

4008
02:42:52,872 --> 02:42:54,708
delivery drivers picking up

4009
02:42:54,708 --> 02:42:56,776
orders. So the killings much

4010
02:42:56,776 --> 02:42:57,377
faster. It’s not your typical

4011
02:42:57,377 --> 02:43:01,648
drive-thru. We are proposing

4012
02:43:01,648 --> 02:43:04,050
and ISR, as I mentioned, of

4013
02:43:04,050 --> 02:43:07,120
75%. So if you look on the PD

4014
02:43:07,120 --> 02:43:07,754
plan, you can see the hatch

4015
02:43:07,754 --> 02:43:11,658
pavers on that eastern side.

4016
02:43:11,658 --> 02:43:12,559
Those are 14 parking spaces

4017
02:43:12,559 --> 02:43:14,394
that are proposed to be per

4018
02:43:14,394 --> 02:43:15,929
vs. Pavers under your code.

4019
02:43:15,929 --> 02:43:16,730
There is no credit given

4020
02:43:16,730 --> 02:43:20,633
prefer Pervious pavers, but

4021
02:43:20,633 --> 02:43:21,534
that’s just gesture of good

4022
02:43:21,534 --> 02:43:23,703
faith that the applicant is

4023
02:43:23,703 --> 02:43:27,307
making to minimize any

4024
02:43:27,307 --> 02:43:27,941
potential impact that that

4025
02:43:27,941 --> 02:43:30,009
additional 5% ISR could

4026
02:43:30,009 --> 02:43:31,711
potentially have. So that is

4027
02:43:31,711 --> 02:43:32,345
something that they’re willing

4028
02:43:32,345 --> 02:43:34,180
to is a binding condition

4029
02:43:34,180 --> 02:43:35,715
agree to, even though there’s

4030
02:43:35,715 --> 02:43:36,316
no credit given for it under

4031
02:43:36,316 --> 02:43:39,486
your code. The Max building

4032
02:43:39,486 --> 02:43:42,756
height is 50 feet high we

4033
02:43:42,756 --> 02:43:43,356
won’t be won’t be increasing

4034
02:43:43,356 --> 02:43:46,059
that at all. maximum that they

4035
02:43:46,059 --> 02:43:49,195
are as one point. Now, that’s

4036
02:43:49,195 --> 02:43:51,798
proposed is less than 0.1. So

4037
02:43:51,798 --> 02:43:54,134
very minimal parking required

4038
02:43:54,134 --> 02:43:56,202
under the ite justification,

4039
02:43:56,202 --> 02:43:56,770
which has been submitted it

4040
02:43:56,770 --> 02:44:00,240
with our parking study is 55

4041
02:44:00,240 --> 02:44:03,076
spaces proposed on this plan

4042
02:44:03,076 --> 02:44:04,811
is approximately 59 and we’ll

4043
02:44:04,811 --> 02:44:05,311
go to the more detailed

4044
02:44:05,311 --> 02:44:05,879
concept plan next where you

4045
02:44:05,879 --> 02:44:08,948
can see that we will certainly

4046
02:44:08,948 --> 02:44:09,983
provide the 55 spaces that are

4047
02:44:09,983 --> 02:44:12,118
acquired likely more. But we

4048
02:44:12,118 --> 02:44:13,052
leave that flexibility just in

4049
02:44:13,052 --> 02:44:16,689
design in case there needs to

4050
02:44:16,689 --> 02:44:17,724
you know, some alterations to

4051
02:44:17,724 --> 02:44:18,691
landscape islands or

4052
02:44:18,691 --> 02:44:22,595
stormwater that sort of thing.

4053
02:44:22,595 --> 02:44:23,730
Building setbacks. We exceed

4054
02:44:23,730 --> 02:44:26,499
on all of them at 65 feet.

4055
02:44:26,499 --> 02:44:28,501
From us 1925 feet along Ala C

4056
02:44:28,501 --> 02:44:32,305
corresponding ways. If we can

4057
02:44:32,305 --> 02:44:35,975
go to the next side. So this

4058
02:44:35,975 --> 02:44:37,710
is a more detailed concept

4059
02:44:37,710 --> 02:44:39,946
plan and we provided this

4060
02:44:39,946 --> 02:44:40,814
after the planning commission

4061
02:44:40,814 --> 02:44:41,881
because there was a lot of lot

4062
02:44:41,881 --> 02:44:43,950
of questions about exactly the

4063
02:44:43,950 --> 02:44:44,751
with of drive aisles,

4064
02:44:44,751 --> 02:44:46,386
justification for those

4065
02:44:46,386 --> 02:44:49,389
landscape. But for what’s in

4066
02:44:49,389 --> 02:44:50,690
so we provided this to make it

4067
02:44:50,690 --> 02:44:51,724
a little more clear for you

4068
02:44:51,724 --> 02:44:54,494
all and making your decision

4069
02:44:54,494 --> 02:44:56,596
where you can see so on that

4070
02:44:56,596 --> 02:44:58,198
East and South side is where

4071
02:44:58,198 --> 02:44:58,798
the reduced buffer is from 10

4072
02:44:58,798 --> 02:45:02,402
feet to 5 feet. Now, I want to

4073
02:45:02,402 --> 02:45:03,203
be clear, we’re not reducing

4074
02:45:03,203 --> 02:45:04,103
the amount of landscaping and

4075
02:45:04,103 --> 02:45:04,838
that area. So even though we

4076
02:45:04,838 --> 02:45:07,474
only have 5 feet to put it in

4077
02:45:07,474 --> 02:45:10,343
still will comply with all the

4078
02:45:10,343 --> 02:45:12,078
landscaping requirements. But

4079
02:45:12,078 --> 02:45:13,313
if we were provide a 10 foot

4080
02:45:13,313 --> 02:45:17,083
buffer, the site, the

4081
02:45:17,083 --> 02:45:18,051
constraints are just such that

4082
02:45:18,051 --> 02:45:20,086
we would lose that entire 14

4083
02:45:20,086 --> 02:45:21,020
rows of parking along

4084
02:45:21,020 --> 02:45:21,621
Pittsburgh on the East side,

4085
02:45:21,621 --> 02:45:25,391
14 parking spaces sees me and

4086
02:45:25,391 --> 02:45:26,326
on the South side that 5

4087
02:45:26,326 --> 02:45:30,063
additional fee would also

4088
02:45:30,063 --> 02:45:31,130
jeopardize the circulation. We

4089
02:45:31,130 --> 02:45:33,333
want to have the 20 foot wide

4090
02:45:33,333 --> 02:45:34,534
aisle with for the drive aisle

4091
02:45:34,534 --> 02:45:37,704
for two-way traffic. So for

4092
02:45:37,704 --> 02:45:39,806
safety concerns and traffic

4093
02:45:39,806 --> 02:45:42,342
flow we have requested those

4094
02:45:42,342 --> 02:45:46,779
deviations and feel that they are appropriate. Current

4095
02:45:46,779 --> 02:45:48,214
site our civil Talk a little

4096
02:45:48,214 --> 02:45:51,117
more us to access point. There

4097
02:45:51,117 --> 02:45:52,285
are a lot of access points

4098
02:45:52,285 --> 02:45:54,153
that are proposed to be

4099
02:45:54,153 --> 02:45:54,888
removed. There are 2 current

4100
02:45:54,888 --> 02:45:55,522
access points on U.S. 19 that

4101
02:45:55,522 --> 02:45:57,790
will be removed. So a big

4102
02:45:57,790 --> 02:46:00,627
safety improvement there.

4103
02:46:00,627 --> 02:46:01,794
will be then one right

4104
02:46:01,794 --> 02:46:04,864
in right out off of West home

4105
02:46:04,864 --> 02:46:05,732
assassin with a raised median

4106
02:46:05,732 --> 02:46:08,368
in accordance with the county

4107
02:46:08,368 --> 02:46:09,502
engineers. Conditions as well

4108
02:46:09,502 --> 02:46:11,204
as a full access point off of

4109
02:46:11,204 --> 02:46:11,704
Pittsburgh and off of

4110
02:46:11,704 --> 02:46:19,412
Aqueduct, as you see. This is

4111
02:46:19,412 --> 02:46:20,146
a proposed conceptual

4112
02:46:20,146 --> 02:46:23,283
landscape plans to give you

4113
02:46:23,283 --> 02:46:24,117
again and as this would be a

4114
02:46:24,117 --> 02:46:27,987
huge upgrade for the site. So

4115
02:46:27,987 --> 02:46:31,024
you see those larger canopies

4116
02:46:31,024 --> 02:46:31,925
there. Those are 2 existing

4117
02:46:31,925 --> 02:46:33,393
specimen trees that are on

4118
02:46:33,393 --> 02:46:34,360
site. There is. And I don’t

4119
02:46:34,360 --> 02:46:43,636
thank a 2 point. Maybe I can.

4120
02:46:43,636 --> 02:46:44,170
Maybe it does move power

4121
02:46:44,170 --> 02:46:54,881
point. The one specimen tree.

4122
02:46:54,881 --> 02:46:55,481
The arborist will come up and

4123
02:46:55,481 --> 02:46:57,617
talk about it is located. It

4124
02:46:57,617 --> 02:46:59,852
on the northwest corner and we

4125
02:46:59,852 --> 02:47:01,821
can pull back at that PT plan

4126
02:47:01,821 --> 02:47:04,924
to show you that it’s right in

4127
02:47:04,924 --> 02:47:06,893
the middle of the drive aisle.

4128
02:47:06,893 --> 02:47:09,862
Unfortunately. And it is and

4129
02:47:09,862 --> 02:47:11,064
we have some more pictures.

4130
02:47:11,064 --> 02:47:12,332
We’ll get to it. But it’s

4131
02:47:12,332 --> 02:47:14,233
already compromised in its

4132
02:47:14,233 --> 02:47:16,336
root zone. And I’ll let the

4133
02:47:16,336 --> 02:47:17,337
Arbor speak more to those

4134
02:47:17,337 --> 02:47:18,171
details of why it is

4135
02:47:18,171 --> 02:47:18,771
recommended to come out with

4136
02:47:18,771 --> 02:47:21,808
the proposed development. So

4137
02:47:21,808 --> 02:47:24,644
their quest to deviations is

4138
02:47:24,644 --> 02:47:27,547
the parking deviation. As I

4139
02:47:27,547 --> 02:47:28,982
mentioned before under the ite

4140
02:47:28,982 --> 02:47:30,917
justification would require 55

4141
02:47:30,917 --> 02:47:35,188
spaces. The code requires 74

4142
02:47:35,188 --> 02:47:37,290
75 spaces. We are requesting

4143
02:47:37,290 --> 02:47:38,658
that deviation removal of one

4144
02:47:38,658 --> 02:47:39,359
specimen tree, which we will

4145
02:47:39,359 --> 02:47:42,795
discuss in more detail. The

4146
02:47:42,795 --> 02:47:44,631
impervious surface ratio of

4147
02:47:44,631 --> 02:47:49,235
75% and landscaping buffers to 5 FA along the south and

4148
02:47:49,235 --> 02:47:52,805
East property lines. So the

4149
02:47:52,805 --> 02:47:56,275
parking it justification as I

4150
02:47:56,275 --> 02:47:56,876
mentioned, the parking study

4151
02:47:56,876 --> 02:47:57,443
has been submitted in this

4152
02:47:57,443 --> 02:48:01,080
part of your part of your

4153
02:48:01,080 --> 02:48:03,783
record with the 85th

4154
02:48:03,783 --> 02:48:08,621
percentile for a for coffee

4155
02:48:08,621 --> 02:48:09,656
donut shop which is not

4156
02:48:09,656 --> 02:48:11,658
provided for under your code.

4157
02:48:11,658 --> 02:48:15,628
Just why we look to it is

4158
02:48:15,628 --> 02:48:18,531
requires. 26 faces for the

4159
02:48:18,531 --> 02:48:19,732
proposed site. The 85th

4160
02:48:19,732 --> 02:48:21,768
percentile for the fast Food

4161
02:48:21,768 --> 02:48:22,935
restaurant would require. 29

4162
02:48:22,935 --> 02:48:23,536
space is bringing us to that.

4163
02:48:23,536 --> 02:48:30,743
55 required. Here are the 2

4164
02:48:30,743 --> 02:48:32,111
specimen that are on site as

4165
02:48:32,111 --> 02:48:33,780
well as the specimen tree.

4166
02:48:33,780 --> 02:48:35,815
That is just in the right of

4167
02:48:35,815 --> 02:48:37,717
way. So you can see on the top

4168
02:48:37,717 --> 02:48:38,618
flight last photo is the

4169
02:48:38,618 --> 02:48:40,286
specimen tree by the existing

4170
02:48:40,286 --> 02:48:41,120
car wash. That will be

4171
02:48:41,120 --> 02:48:43,856
preserved as part of the plan.

4172
02:48:43,856 --> 02:48:44,691
Of course, as I mentioned,

4173
02:48:44,691 --> 02:48:45,258
specimen tree that’s in the

4174
02:48:45,258 --> 02:48:48,695
right of way. It was called

4175
02:48:48,695 --> 02:48:49,328
out in the staff report. So we

4176
02:48:49,328 --> 02:48:49,929
just want to make sure it’s

4177
02:48:49,929 --> 02:48:50,496
clear. Of course, we’re not

4178
02:48:50,496 --> 02:48:52,632
touching that. You know,

4179
02:48:52,632 --> 02:48:55,001
jeopardizing that in any way.

4180
02:48:55,001 --> 02:48:58,037
And then that brings us to the

4181
02:48:58,037 --> 02:48:59,505
3rd tree that is located more

4182
02:48:59,505 --> 02:49:02,375
of the center of the site. And

4183
02:49:02,375 --> 02:49:04,143
I would like to bring up Mr.

4184
02:49:04,143 --> 02:49:06,813
Jon Snow, who is a master

4185
02:49:06,813 --> 02:49:09,015
arborist with 33 years

4186
02:49:09,015 --> 02:49:12,652
experience from Tree checkup

4187
02:49:12,652 --> 02:49:13,419
to discuss his arborist report

4188
02:49:13,419 --> 02:49:14,520
and the justifications. Thank

4189
02:49:14,520 --> 02:49:20,727
you.

4190
02:49:20,727 --> 02:49:21,961
>> Good evening. My name is

4191
02:49:21,961 --> 02:49:25,732
Jon with Tree for sure.

4192
02:49:25,732 --> 02:49:26,265
Five-match arborist been

4193
02:49:26,265 --> 02:49:30,036
practicing for 33 years. So I

4194
02:49:30,036 --> 02:49:30,737
visited the proximate week or

4195
02:49:30,737 --> 02:49:34,307
so ago. And inspected the all

4196
02:49:34,307 --> 02:49:36,242
3 of the trees, one tree.

4197
02:49:36,242 --> 02:49:40,246
That’s in question. That’s

4198
02:49:40,246 --> 02:49:41,881
basically on the called the

4199
02:49:41,881 --> 02:49:42,381
North West side of the

4200
02:49:42,381 --> 02:49:49,989
property. Staff had look at

4201
02:49:49,989 --> 02:49:50,590
and pretty agreed with their

4202
02:49:50,590 --> 02:49:53,526
findings. Pull out what was

4203
02:49:53,526 --> 02:49:54,127
really locking. There was an

4204
02:49:54,127 --> 02:49:56,829
overall rating of the tree. I

4205
02:49:56,829 --> 02:50:00,933
found the trees generally what

4206
02:50:00,933 --> 02:50:03,035
I would consider fair

4207
02:50:03,035 --> 02:50:03,669
condition. It definitely house

4208
02:50:03,669 --> 02:50:07,507
significant amount decline.

4209
02:50:07,507 --> 02:50:09,509
The staff and really kind of

4210
02:50:09,509 --> 02:50:11,310
indicated that they felt that was related to the recent

4211
02:50:11,310 --> 02:50:11,878
droughts that we’ve had. I

4212
02:50:11,878 --> 02:50:14,680
think as we all know, that

4213
02:50:14,680 --> 02:50:16,916
honor drought conditions for a

4214
02:50:16,916 --> 02:50:17,450
long time here in Citrus

4215
02:50:17,450 --> 02:50:20,219
County. But more importantly,

4216
02:50:20,219 --> 02:50:23,890
what I found was that the

4217
02:50:23,890 --> 02:50:25,792
trees really being impacted by

4218
02:50:25,792 --> 02:50:26,325
the asphalt. Me could you

4219
02:50:26,325 --> 02:50:28,461
might go see it there. In that

4220
02:50:28,461 --> 02:50:31,230
photo. Is really being

4221
02:50:31,230 --> 02:50:32,431
impacted by the asphalt. It’s

4222
02:50:32,431 --> 02:50:36,836
going. Almost within 5 feet of

4223
02:50:36,836 --> 02:50:38,671
the base of the tree. There’s

4224
02:50:38,671 --> 02:50:39,238
large curling route on that

4225
02:50:39,238 --> 02:50:41,841
side of the tree. You can see

4226
02:50:41,841 --> 02:50:43,676
we’re small asphalt actually

4227
02:50:43,676 --> 02:50:44,844
being lifted. Then you have

4228
02:50:44,844 --> 02:50:46,879
the Jason Building, which is

4229
02:50:46,879 --> 02:50:47,480
also within the drip line and

4230
02:50:47,480 --> 02:50:51,651
tree. In summary. Really what

4231
02:50:51,651 --> 02:50:55,254
I found is a tree that’s great

4232
02:50:55,254 --> 02:50:59,725
condition soon for condition.

4233
02:50:59,725 --> 02:51:00,993
The bigger problem is any kind

4234
02:51:00,993 --> 02:51:02,361
of construction that’s going

4235
02:51:02,361 --> 02:51:03,196
to be done on the site. Just a

4236
02:51:03,196 --> 02:51:07,266
simple process of demolishing

4237
02:51:07,266 --> 02:51:09,235
the building. It’s all point a

4238
02:51:09,235 --> 02:51:10,203
possible everything. My

4239
02:51:10,203 --> 02:51:10,736
thoughts going to do more

4240
02:51:10,736 --> 02:51:12,672
damage to the tree. And based

4241
02:51:12,672 --> 02:51:17,577
on that, you know. To me the

4242
02:51:17,577 --> 02:51:18,211
simpler solution is, you know,

4243
02:51:18,211 --> 02:51:19,846
go ahead and remove that tree

4244
02:51:19,846 --> 02:51:20,346
and really try to focus

4245
02:51:20,346 --> 02:51:21,881
efforts on trying preserve the

4246
02:51:21,881 --> 02:51:23,850
other 2 remain trees that the

4247
02:51:23,850 --> 02:51:25,985
one by the car wash isn’t very

4248
02:51:25,985 --> 02:51:28,187
good condition. I think one in

4249
02:51:28,187 --> 02:51:30,556
the right away. They have

4250
02:51:30,556 --> 02:51:40,833
issues.

4251
02:51:40,833 --> 02:51:42,034
>> Of course, Mister Snow be

4252
02:51:42,034 --> 02:51:42,902
here any any questions you

4253
02:51:42,902 --> 02:51:44,770
have to address is so access

4254
02:51:44,770 --> 02:51:48,975
management. Pull back up the

4255
02:51:48,975 --> 02:51:52,612
power point. Parents. I

4256
02:51:52,612 --> 02:51:53,679
mentioned before there’s 3

4257
02:51:53,679 --> 02:51:55,281
proposed access Again, I will

4258
02:51:55,281 --> 02:51:56,015
let Mister Carter engineer

4259
02:51:56,015 --> 02:51:59,986
speak to that and more detail.

4260
02:51:59,986 --> 02:52:02,188
There was some comments in the

4261
02:52:02,188 --> 02:52:02,922
staff report about some

4262
02:52:02,922 --> 02:52:04,123
general notes number 2, 3,

4263
02:52:04,123 --> 02:52:06,259
that staff originally was

4264
02:52:06,259 --> 02:52:08,261
concerned with. We have

4265
02:52:08,261 --> 02:52:08,861
removed those notes from the

4266
02:52:08,861 --> 02:52:09,362
plan and that has been

4267
02:52:09,362 --> 02:52:13,232
resolved. So the proposed PD

4268
02:52:13,232 --> 02:52:14,901
is consistent with your

4269
02:52:14,901 --> 02:52:15,501
comprehensive plan as you see

4270
02:52:15,501 --> 02:52:18,804
in your staff report. It is

4271
02:52:18,804 --> 02:52:20,706
consistent with policies.

4272
02:52:20,706 --> 02:52:24,644
2017.7 in policy. 6017.2, as

4273
02:52:24,644 --> 02:52:26,112
we mentioned before, this is a

4274
02:52:26,112 --> 02:52:26,679
previously developed site.

4275
02:52:26,679 --> 02:52:28,948
There is services that are

4276
02:52:28,948 --> 02:52:30,883
there and readily served the

4277
02:52:30,883 --> 02:52:31,751
site with very minimal

4278
02:52:31,751 --> 02:52:35,288
environmental impacts. That is

4279
02:52:35,288 --> 02:52:37,223
consistent with your land

4280
02:52:37,223 --> 02:52:39,292
development code has to access

4281
02:52:39,292 --> 02:52:41,127
management. All of the

4282
02:52:41,127 --> 02:52:41,694
proposed access points have

4283
02:52:41,694 --> 02:52:42,295
been reviewed and approved by

4284
02:52:42,295 --> 02:52:45,231
the county engineer. Storm

4285
02:52:45,231 --> 02:52:47,400
water will have to comply with

4286
02:52:47,400 --> 02:52:48,334
the requirements in your ldc

4287
02:52:48,334 --> 02:52:48,968
and again Mr. Carter can speak

4288
02:52:48,968 --> 02:52:51,871
to that in more detail. The

4289
02:52:51,871 --> 02:52:53,139
ISR we are requesting the

4290
02:52:53,139 --> 02:52:57,109
deviation to 75%. The FAA are

4291
02:52:57,109 --> 02:52:59,245
again, will be in compliance

4292
02:52:59,245 --> 02:53:03,149
well below the maximum. 1.0

4293
02:53:03,149 --> 02:53:05,117
landscaping buffers. We do

4294
02:53:05,117 --> 02:53:06,218
requests that deviation for

4295
02:53:06,218 --> 02:53:06,819
the south and east buffers to

4296
02:53:06,819 --> 02:53:12,391
5 feet. The tree preservation

4297
02:53:12,391 --> 02:53:13,426
again to 3 specimen. Trees, of

4298
02:53:13,426 --> 02:53:16,262
course, will be preserved. And

4299
02:53:16,262 --> 02:53:17,530
the one that you heard from Mr

4300
02:53:17,530 --> 02:53:21,233
Style will require removal.

4301
02:53:21,233 --> 02:53:21,801
Parking standards. We will

4302
02:53:21,801 --> 02:53:23,469
meet the IT parking

4303
02:53:23,469 --> 02:53:24,070
justification standards which

4304
02:53:24,070 --> 02:53:29,308
are a permit. under your code.

4305
02:53:29,308 --> 02:53:31,177
Loading We offered at the

4306
02:53:31,177 --> 02:53:32,411
planning Commission was

4307
02:53:32,411 --> 02:53:33,813
concerned about the loading We

4308
02:53:33,813 --> 02:53:34,680
did offer a binding condition

4309
02:53:34,680 --> 02:53:35,314
that loading would take place

4310
02:53:35,314 --> 02:53:38,651
off and after hours. And that

4311
02:53:38,651 --> 02:53:42,755
is the condition of the plan.

4312
02:53:42,755 --> 02:53:44,724
Setbacks have all been Matt

4313
02:53:44,724 --> 02:53:45,558
pedestrian amenities,

4314
02:53:45,558 --> 02:53:47,360
circulation, sidewalks comply

4315
02:53:47,360 --> 02:53:48,527
with the land Development code

4316
02:53:48,527 --> 02:53:51,764
standards as well as signage.

4317
02:53:51,764 --> 02:53:53,933
So with excuse me Concurrency

4318
02:53:53,933 --> 02:53:55,568
as well. As I mentioned

4319
02:53:55,568 --> 02:53:56,869
before. It’s a previously

4320
02:53:56,869 --> 02:53:57,670
developed site. There are

4321
02:53:57,670 --> 02:53:58,704
services available that

4322
02:53:58,704 --> 02:53:59,205
sanitary sewer will be

4323
02:53:59,205 --> 02:54:02,241
provided by the county potable

4324
02:54:02,241 --> 02:54:05,244
water by Homosassa, Special

4325
02:54:05,244 --> 02:54:06,379
Water District and the solid

4326
02:54:06,379 --> 02:54:07,079
waste will utilize commercial

4327
02:54:07,079 --> 02:54:08,948
solid waste in the Citrus

4328
02:54:08,948 --> 02:54:10,182
County Landfill, which we

4329
02:54:10,182 --> 02:54:10,750
submitted a capacity letter

4330
02:54:10,750 --> 02:54:14,320
for. So with that, I have Mr.

4331
02:54:14,320 --> 02:54:22,094
Carter, comma.

4332
02:54:22,094 --> 02:54:23,562
>> Good Evening Commission. My

4333
02:54:23,562 --> 02:54:25,264
name is Troy Carter. I’m a

4334
02:54:25,264 --> 02:54:26,399
professional engineer licensed

4335
02:54:26,399 --> 02:54:26,966
in the state of Florida and

4336
02:54:26,966 --> 02:54:27,566
Texas. My license number is 9

4337
02:54:27,566 --> 02:54:28,968
for 3 on 3. I have been sworn

4338
02:54:28,968 --> 02:54:32,104
for the record. My address for

4339
02:54:32,104 --> 02:54:33,072
the record is 2, 8, 7, 5, 2,

4340
02:54:33,072 --> 02:54:33,672
falling leaves way in Wesley

4341
02:54:33,672 --> 02:54:35,307
Chapel. And I have a

4342
02:54:35,307 --> 02:54:45,951
presentation for you tonight.

4343
02:54:45,951 --> 02:54:46,552
Sorry, I skipped ahead on the

4344
02:54:46,552 --> 02:55:01,600
air. so many of my points are

4345
02:55:01,600 --> 02:55:02,301
already covered by members of

4346
02:55:02,301 --> 02:55:03,269
our team. But I’ll just kind

4347
02:55:03,269 --> 02:55:04,170
of hit on a couple of key

4348
02:55:04,170 --> 02:55:06,038
points about how this site is

4349
02:55:06,038 --> 02:55:07,473
constrained. One of the things

4350
02:55:07,473 --> 02:55:08,240
that’s a typical about this

4351
02:55:08,240 --> 02:55:08,874
site is exported by right away

4352
02:55:08,874 --> 02:55:11,377
on all 4 sides. So you’re

4353
02:55:11,377 --> 02:55:12,044
going to have stringent

4354
02:55:12,044 --> 02:55:12,578
requirements in terms of

4355
02:55:12,578 --> 02:55:13,846
setbacks in terms of buffers.

4356
02:55:13,846 --> 02:55:16,082
The site’s only an acre and a

4357
02:55:16,082 --> 02:55:18,184
half. One of the questions

4358
02:55:18,184 --> 02:55:19,985
that came up at the PDC What

4359
02:55:19,985 --> 02:55:20,619
what’s going on out there

4360
02:55:20,619 --> 02:55:21,387
today? There’s about 15,000

4361
02:55:21,387 --> 02:55:23,222
square feet of commercial out

4362
02:55:23,222 --> 02:55:23,722
there today. We’re only

4363
02:55:23,722 --> 02:55:27,126
proposing 5,000. We got some

4364
02:55:27,126 --> 02:55:28,394
great feedback from the PTC.

4365
02:55:28,394 --> 02:55:29,595
And since then we’ve met with

4366
02:55:29,595 --> 02:55:30,062
staff, including the

4367
02:55:30,062 --> 02:55:30,629
Department of Public Works.

4368
02:55:30,629 --> 02:55:32,498
The county engineer Joanne and

4369
02:55:32,498 --> 02:55:34,467
her team. And so we’ve kind of

4370
02:55:34,467 --> 02:55:35,167
put together some more

4371
02:55:35,167 --> 02:55:35,801
information, hopefully get out

4372
02:55:35,801 --> 02:55:38,037
in front of your questions

4373
02:55:38,037 --> 02:55:38,671
kind of run through. Those now

4374
02:55:38,671 --> 02:55:41,707
has learned a 2 parking and

4375
02:55:41,707 --> 02:55:42,308
the impervious surface ratio,

4376
02:55:42,308 --> 02:55:44,710
we kind of look at those as

4377
02:55:44,710 --> 02:55:45,277
being one issue because the

4378
02:55:45,277 --> 02:55:47,513
more parking I have more, I

4379
02:55:47,513 --> 02:55:49,348
drive out that impervious

4380
02:55:49,348 --> 02:55:51,317
surface ratio, your code does

4381
02:55:51,317 --> 02:55:52,318
allow parking study to be

4382
02:55:52,318 --> 02:55:52,952
submitted and must follow Ite,

4383
02:55:52,952 --> 02:55:56,322
which is the institue of

4384
02:55:56,322 --> 02:55:56,856
transportation engineers.

4385
02:55:56,856 --> 02:55:57,556
That’s kind of the governing

4386
02:55:57,556 --> 02:56:00,626
body of all things traffic. So

4387
02:56:00,626 --> 02:56:01,193
we did a traffic study. We

4388
02:56:01,193 --> 02:56:03,762
came out with 55 spaces

4389
02:56:03,762 --> 02:56:05,264
required. We are proposing 59

4390
02:56:05,264 --> 02:56:08,767
on our current concept plan

4391
02:56:08,767 --> 02:56:09,235
and we’re asking the

4392
02:56:09,235 --> 02:56:11,470
condition, read 55 to allow

4393
02:56:11,470 --> 02:56:12,071
for some flexibility when we

4394
02:56:12,071 --> 02:56:15,674
move into design here. Why do

4395
02:56:15,674 --> 02:56:18,043
we think 55 spaces works give

4396
02:56:18,043 --> 02:56:19,211
you a few reasons. One, we

4397
02:56:19,211 --> 02:56:19,778
believe that these uses are

4398
02:56:19,778 --> 02:56:20,246
actually going to be

4399
02:56:20,246 --> 02:56:21,814
complementary to each other.

4400
02:56:21,814 --> 02:56:23,682
So you’re talking about a

4401
02:56:23,682 --> 02:56:25,584
coffee shop where their peak

4402
02:56:25,584 --> 02:56:26,118
hours really going to be

4403
02:56:26,118 --> 02:56:26,652
morning traffic rights on

4404
02:56:26,652 --> 02:56:28,721
tropics. Going to come in.

4405
02:56:28,721 --> 02:56:29,722
That business is also going to

4406
02:56:29,722 --> 02:56:31,857
be very vehicular oriented.

4407
02:56:31,857 --> 02:56:32,558
They estimate about 80% of

4408
02:56:32,558 --> 02:56:33,292
their customers stand their

4409
02:56:33,292 --> 02:56:35,094
vehicle and go through the

4410
02:56:35,094 --> 02:56:35,961
drive-thru. That’s why we have

4411
02:56:35,961 --> 02:56:36,562
such excessive queuing on the

4412
02:56:36,562 --> 02:56:39,965
coffee shop side. Where has

4413
02:56:39,965 --> 02:56:41,400
the Chipotle? They’re going to

4414
02:56:41,400 --> 02:56:41,901
have peak hours in the

4415
02:56:41,901 --> 02:56:44,270
afternoon early evening. So

4416
02:56:44,270 --> 02:56:44,770
those uses are going to

4417
02:56:44,770 --> 02:56:48,007
overlap with each other.

4418
02:56:48,007 --> 02:56:48,474
Chipotle uses. Lauren

4419
02:56:48,474 --> 02:56:49,074
mentioned they’re using this

4420
02:56:49,074 --> 02:56:50,843
new Chipotle in concept, which

4421
02:56:50,843 --> 02:56:52,311
is mobile order only so

4422
02:56:52,311 --> 02:56:52,945
everything is ordered and paid

4423
02:56:52,945 --> 02:56:54,847
for out of time. And you just

4424
02:56:54,847 --> 02:56:56,916
pick up so they will be more

4425
02:56:56,916 --> 02:56:57,783
parking intensive because

4426
02:56:57,783 --> 02:56:58,350
we’re off kilter from each

4427
02:56:58,350 --> 02:56:59,919
other. They’re complementary

4428
02:56:59,919 --> 02:57:00,953
uses. We didn’t take any

4429
02:57:00,953 --> 02:57:01,954
additional credits for, you

4430
02:57:01,954 --> 02:57:05,724
know, I shared study for the

4431
02:57:05,724 --> 02:57:06,292
bicycle parking. Those are

4432
02:57:06,292 --> 02:57:06,892
things that are just required

4433
02:57:06,892 --> 02:57:07,526
by code. But we are providing

4434
02:57:07,526 --> 02:57:09,061
and meeting all of those

4435
02:57:09,061 --> 02:57:10,796
criteria. The other thing to

4436
02:57:10,796 --> 02:57:11,363
consider is that these are

4437
02:57:11,363 --> 02:57:14,767
major national brands. They

4438
02:57:14,767 --> 02:57:15,367
are very in tune with amount

4439
02:57:15,367 --> 02:57:15,868
of parking. They didn’t

4440
02:57:15,868 --> 02:57:16,502
they’re not going to make that

4441
02:57:16,502 --> 02:57:17,102
kind of financial commitment

4442
02:57:17,102 --> 02:57:18,571
to a site. They feel like they

4443
02:57:18,571 --> 02:57:21,207
don’t have the parking. These

4444
02:57:21,207 --> 02:57:22,408
are not essential uses. We’re

4445
02:57:22,408 --> 02:57:23,042
not talking about hospitals or

4446
02:57:23,042 --> 02:57:24,610
anything like that. I know a

4447
02:57:24,610 --> 02:57:25,511
cup of coffee can feel like an

4448
02:57:25,511 --> 02:57:28,013
emergency sometimes. But

4449
02:57:28,013 --> 02:57:30,182
you’re driving down the road

4450
02:57:30,182 --> 02:57:30,749
the morning. You can get a

4451
02:57:30,749 --> 02:57:31,350
stop here. You’re going to go

4452
02:57:31,350 --> 02:57:31,917
another block down the road

4453
02:57:31,917 --> 02:57:32,551
and find somewhere else to get

4454
02:57:32,551 --> 02:57:34,086
your coffee. So we feel very

4455
02:57:34,086 --> 02:57:35,054
confident in the parking that

4456
02:57:35,054 --> 02:57:38,157
we’re providing. And again,

4457
02:57:38,157 --> 02:57:39,258
that report lane concept. we

4458
02:57:39,258 --> 02:57:39,825
have to explain that a lot

4459
02:57:39,825 --> 02:57:43,262
because it’s such a new idea.

4460
02:57:43,262 --> 02:57:44,496
We are providing the 14 per

4461
02:57:44,496 --> 02:57:46,131
DIA spaces. As Lauren

4462
02:57:46,131 --> 02:57:48,000
mentioned, that was just an

4463
02:57:48,000 --> 02:57:48,834
effort to try to meet the

4464
02:57:48,834 --> 02:57:51,136
closer to that 70% number. And

4465
02:57:51,136 --> 02:57:52,805
the GNC, the Citrus County

4466
02:57:52,805 --> 02:57:53,405
code does not allow for that.

4467
02:57:53,405 --> 02:57:54,039
Even though it’s brought up at

4468
02:57:54,039 --> 02:57:57,443
the peace PC. But if you were

4469
02:57:57,443 --> 02:57:58,177
to account for that, that puts

4470
02:57:58,177 --> 02:58:01,747
us at 70.3% impervious Just a

4471
02:58:01,747 --> 02:58:02,815
hair over. If we actually

4472
02:58:02,815 --> 02:58:03,916
consider that being into the

4473
02:58:03,916 --> 02:58:06,885
equation and again, we want to

4474
02:58:06,885 --> 02:58:08,020
provide the appropriate amount

4475
02:58:08,020 --> 02:58:08,621
of parking. There’s no point

4476
02:58:08,621 --> 02:58:10,322
putting too much excess

4477
02:58:10,322 --> 02:58:11,590
parking on there. We’re going

4478
02:58:11,590 --> 02:58:15,794
to increase storm water runoff

4479
02:58:15,794 --> 02:58:16,395
create other issues and want

4480
02:58:16,395 --> 02:58:16,996
act on infrastructure that’s

4481
02:58:16,996 --> 02:58:21,233
already out there. access

4482
02:58:21,233 --> 02:58:21,800
members with this is first

4483
02:58:21,800 --> 02:58:23,369
light is kind like a global

4484
02:58:23,369 --> 02:58:25,471
view. As already mentioned,

4485
02:58:25,471 --> 02:58:27,039
there’s 7 access points out

4486
02:58:27,039 --> 02:58:28,374
there today. It’s kind of a

4487
02:58:28,374 --> 02:58:28,974
wild west in terms of access.

4488
02:58:28,974 --> 02:58:32,311
It’s very unsafe. Not only do

4489
02:58:32,311 --> 02:58:33,846
none of those meet standards,

4490
02:58:33,846 --> 02:58:34,613
spacing criteria, they’re also

4491
02:58:34,613 --> 02:58:38,550
kind of geometrically ball, I

4492
02:58:38,550 --> 02:58:39,084
guess is the way I would

4493
02:58:39,084 --> 02:58:39,918
describe them that are just

4494
02:58:39,918 --> 02:58:40,753
create a lot of unsafe

4495
02:58:40,753 --> 02:58:42,354
conditions. Myanmar to wider,

4496
02:58:42,354 --> 02:58:43,789
too narrow. And so we feel

4497
02:58:43,789 --> 02:58:44,356
that we’re really improving

4498
02:58:44,356 --> 02:58:46,859
the overall scenario. We are

4499
02:58:46,859 --> 02:58:47,793
proposing 3 total access

4500
02:58:47,793 --> 02:58:48,560
points, which are going to be

4501
02:58:48,560 --> 02:58:51,463
the 2 full access is and the

4502
02:58:51,463 --> 02:58:52,031
one restricted riding right

4503
02:58:52,031 --> 02:58:55,301
out Homosassa Trail. That was

4504
02:58:55,301 --> 02:58:56,302
when we spent the most time

4505
02:58:56,302 --> 02:58:57,403
talking about. And again,

4506
02:58:57,403 --> 02:58:58,070
we’ve had several meetings

4507
02:58:58,070 --> 02:58:59,405
with the county Engineering

4508
02:58:59,405 --> 02:59:00,272
Department of Public works

4509
02:59:00,272 --> 02:59:01,307
about this access on Homosassa

4510
02:59:01,307 --> 02:59:01,874
Trail, how to make this as

4511
02:59:01,874 --> 02:59:03,776
safe as possible and what we

4512
02:59:03,776 --> 02:59:04,610
really kind of settled on as

4513
02:59:04,610 --> 02:59:05,210
we’re just going to throw the

4514
02:59:05,210 --> 02:59:08,013
whole book out. So we are

4515
02:59:08,013 --> 02:59:08,714
proposing physical constraints

4516
02:59:08,714 --> 02:59:10,582
by race meeting within the

4517
02:59:10,582 --> 02:59:12,484
right away. We’re also going

4518
02:59:12,484 --> 02:59:13,652
to have a raised median within

4519
02:59:13,652 --> 02:59:14,386
our driveway. What we

4520
02:59:14,386 --> 02:59:15,854
sometimes refer to as a pork

4521
02:59:15,854 --> 02:59:16,455
Chop island to try to channel

4522
02:59:16,455 --> 02:59:18,190
vehicles in and out and we

4523
02:59:18,190 --> 02:59:20,159
will have signage and

4524
02:59:20,159 --> 02:59:21,293
striping. So we’re doing

4525
02:59:21,293 --> 02:59:22,394
everything we can to make sure

4526
02:59:22,394 --> 02:59:22,995
that this is a limited riding

4527
02:59:22,995 --> 02:59:27,666
right out access. Landscape

4528
02:59:27,666 --> 02:59:28,767
that we talked about. The

4529
02:59:28,767 --> 02:59:29,435
targeted relief I mentioned

4530
02:59:29,435 --> 02:59:30,035
before. You’re bored by right

4531
02:59:30,035 --> 02:59:31,737
away on all 4 sides. So we

4532
02:59:31,737 --> 02:59:34,473
took note from the previous PD

4533
02:59:34,473 --> 02:59:35,074
and said, hey, let’s put the

4534
02:59:35,074 --> 02:59:37,309
10 foot landscape, buffer wits

4535
02:59:37,309 --> 02:59:38,344
on the major thoroughfares

4536
02:59:38,344 --> 02:59:39,945
will go down to 5 feet on the

4537
02:59:39,945 --> 02:59:41,847
side. Streets. But we are not

4538
02:59:41,847 --> 02:59:43,949
asking too reduce the amount

4539
02:59:43,949 --> 02:59:44,583
of plantings or anything like

4540
02:59:44,583 --> 02:59:45,217
that. We’re just really asking

4541
02:59:45,217 --> 02:59:49,555
to reduce the with. We have

4542
02:59:49,555 --> 02:59:50,889
the street tree canopy on the

4543
02:59:50,889 --> 02:59:52,591
east side. Again, this started

4544
02:59:52,591 --> 02:59:53,092
been alluded to are not

4545
02:59:53,092 --> 02:59:55,427
opposing to remove any of

4546
02:59:55,427 --> 02:59:56,095
those trees. You maintain that

4547
02:59:56,095 --> 02:59:56,628
historic canopy corridor

4548
02:59:56,628 --> 03:00:01,233
that’s required by code.

4549
03:00:01,233 --> 03:00:02,368
Specimen tree. I can talk

4550
03:00:02,368 --> 03:00:03,535
briefly about some of

4551
03:00:03,535 --> 03:00:04,570
engineering issues that we’re

4552
03:00:04,570 --> 03:00:06,105
going impacting that Rihanna.

4553
03:00:06,105 --> 03:00:06,705
John talked about the health

4554
03:00:06,705 --> 03:00:07,973
of the tree and what’s going

4555
03:00:07,973 --> 03:00:09,007
on. But this site is located

4556
03:00:09,007 --> 03:00:10,776
within a coastal flood plain.

4557
03:00:10,776 --> 03:00:12,711
We are going to have to

4558
03:00:12,711 --> 03:00:13,345
elevate the site. We will be

4559
03:00:13,345 --> 03:00:15,381
meeting all of your code fled

4560
03:00:15,381 --> 03:00:16,315
code criteria as outlined in

4561
03:00:16,315 --> 03:00:19,184
the Land Development code. But

4562
03:00:19,184 --> 03:00:20,552
we are going to have to raise

4563
03:00:20,552 --> 03:00:21,086
the site and we estimate

4564
03:00:21,086 --> 03:00:21,820
there’s going to be about 2

4565
03:00:21,820 --> 03:00:22,421
and a half feet of fill that

4566
03:00:22,421 --> 03:00:24,289
tree stands today. You can’t

4567
03:00:24,289 --> 03:00:26,158
put that kind of fell over a

4568
03:00:26,158 --> 03:00:27,559
tree. Additionally, as John

4569
03:00:27,559 --> 03:00:28,127
already mentioned, with the

4570
03:00:28,127 --> 03:00:30,696
demo being very close, its,

4571
03:00:30,696 --> 03:00:31,930
it’s just no possible way to

4572
03:00:31,930 --> 03:00:32,798
say that if you see where it

4573
03:00:32,798 --> 03:00:33,432
leads, insight, geometrically,

4574
03:00:33,432 --> 03:00:37,136
it can’t be designed around.

4575
03:00:37,136 --> 03:00:38,404
Regional drainage was brought

4576
03:00:38,404 --> 03:00:39,171
up a little bit at the PDC.

4577
03:00:39,171 --> 03:00:41,106
Saw touched briefly on not

4578
03:00:41,106 --> 03:00:42,141
everything drains from east to

4579
03:00:42,141 --> 03:00:43,409
West direction and it’s

4580
03:00:43,409 --> 03:00:45,110
collected into an FDOT storm

4581
03:00:45,110 --> 03:00:46,612
sewer system that storm sewer

4582
03:00:46,612 --> 03:00:48,514
system routes south the Holes

4583
03:00:48,514 --> 03:00:50,516
River Road west, down Holes

4584
03:00:50,516 --> 03:00:51,316
River Road and it ends up in a

4585
03:00:51,316 --> 03:00:54,286
triple pond system behind the

4586
03:00:54,286 --> 03:00:56,288
Publix DOT just finished

4587
03:00:56,288 --> 03:00:57,456
working on this. But this was

4588
03:00:57,456 --> 03:00:58,023
regional study was done in

4589
03:00:58,023 --> 03:01:00,392
2014, very recent there should

4590
03:01:00,392 --> 03:01:01,059
be sufficient capacity and

4591
03:01:01,059 --> 03:01:02,428
everything was accounted for

4592
03:01:02,428 --> 03:01:06,498
as it stands today as our side

4593
03:01:06,498 --> 03:01:07,065
is concerned, we do already

4594
03:01:07,065 --> 03:01:07,699
have our swiftmud permit. We

4595
03:01:07,699 --> 03:01:10,436
were a tremendous exemption.

4596
03:01:10,436 --> 03:01:11,003
We will be looking at that

4597
03:01:11,003 --> 03:01:13,338
criteria with your code. I

4598
03:01:13,338 --> 03:01:14,440
know that’s really going to

4599
03:01:14,440 --> 03:01:15,040
matter because we’re going to

4600
03:01:15,040 --> 03:01:15,574
have to make a dream that

4601
03:01:15,574 --> 03:01:17,409
connection directly to the DOT

4602
03:01:17,409 --> 03:01:18,177
storm sewer, which means we’re

4603
03:01:18,177 --> 03:01:21,180
going to be open to their full

4604
03:01:21,180 --> 03:01:22,114
kit and caboodle of I think

4605
03:01:22,114 --> 03:01:23,849
it’s 36 to 42 storm

4606
03:01:23,849 --> 03:01:24,550
evaluation. So we anticipate

4607
03:01:24,550 --> 03:01:27,352
putting in underground system

4608
03:01:27,352 --> 03:01:29,321
similar to what the commercial

4609
03:01:29,321 --> 03:01:30,122
side to the north of us did

4610
03:01:30,122 --> 03:01:30,622
when they developed the

4611
03:01:30,622 --> 03:01:31,990
racetrac gas station. So happy

4612
03:01:31,990 --> 03:01:35,761
to answer any questions. I

4613
03:01:35,761 --> 03:01:36,395
know it was mentioned a lot of

4614
03:01:36,395 --> 03:01:37,663
the PC. The site is a bit of

4615
03:01:37,663 --> 03:01:39,398
an eyesore. My client is and

4616
03:01:39,398 --> 03:01:39,932
just to be development, I

4617
03:01:39,932 --> 03:01:40,466
think what we’re putting

4618
03:01:40,466 --> 03:01:42,301
forward today it’s a happy

4619
03:01:42,301 --> 03:01:45,604
compromise for everyone. Or do

4620
03:01:45,604 --> 03:01:47,105
you have any questions?

4621
03:01:47,105 --> 03:01:47,873
Commissioner Davis, just the

4622
03:01:47,873 --> 03:01:49,308
curious sort.

4623
03:01:49,308 --> 03:01:49,608
>> Please.

4624
03:01:49,608 --> 03:01:54,947
>> I’m fascinated by the whole

4625
03:01:54,947 --> 03:01:56,515
pervious tiles with his help her be us or they compare

4626
03:01:56,515 --> 03:01:59,618
to like a grid system with

4627
03:01:59,618 --> 03:02:00,986
large granite or grass or you

4628
03:02:00,986 --> 03:02:04,957
know, if you. Different

4629
03:02:04,957 --> 03:02:05,491
agencies would look at it

4630
03:02:05,491 --> 03:02:06,592
differently. I would say.

4631
03:02:06,592 --> 03:02:08,360
>> It’s a cross now.

4632
03:02:08,360 --> 03:02:10,229
Absolutely not. There is some,

4633
03:02:10,229 --> 03:02:12,798
you know, structural component

4634
03:02:12,798 --> 03:02:13,699
to it. Welcome to comes down

4635
03:02:13,699 --> 03:02:16,568
to how well as it maintained

4636
03:02:16,568 --> 03:02:17,169
and that’s kind of where you

4637
03:02:17,169 --> 03:02:17,669
see the issues with the

4638
03:02:17,669 --> 03:02:19,638
system’s. I’m a big fan of

4639
03:02:19,638 --> 03:02:21,907
previous papers because they

4640
03:02:21,907 --> 03:02:22,541
open space component of think

4641
03:02:22,541 --> 03:02:23,642
of like the hexagon that you

4642
03:02:23,642 --> 03:02:24,209
typically would see, maybe

4643
03:02:24,209 --> 03:02:27,112
even hardware store. There are

4644
03:02:27,112 --> 03:02:29,114
more advanced systems. Now,

4645
03:02:29,114 --> 03:02:30,682
previous household, I’ve seen

4646
03:02:30,682 --> 03:02:31,316
them. They function phenomenal

4647
03:02:31,316 --> 03:02:34,887
and a testing system. But this

4648
03:02:34,887 --> 03:02:35,954
year and into overtime as

4649
03:02:35,954 --> 03:02:37,155
they’re not well maintained,

4650
03:02:37,155 --> 03:02:37,723
actually more difficult to

4651
03:02:37,723 --> 03:02:38,323
maintain, where’s the papers

4652
03:02:38,323 --> 03:02:40,158
can come up and go back down?

4653
03:02:40,158 --> 03:02:40,959
If I had to rate probably

4654
03:02:40,959 --> 03:02:43,629
split the difference on runoff

4655
03:02:43,629 --> 03:02:44,196
between a grass than a pay

4656
03:02:44,196 --> 03:02:47,399
service. Just curious, of

4657
03:02:47,399 --> 03:02:51,236
course, any other questions.

4658
03:02:51,236 --> 03:02:51,670
Commissioner Bear.

4659
03:02:51,670 --> 03:02:52,237
>> You’re not going to use

4660
03:02:52,237 --> 03:02:56,341
River Rock. River Rock.

4661
03:02:56,341 --> 03:02:57,476
>> No man. That was not. My

4662
03:02:57,476 --> 03:02:58,677
plan is not what you were

4663
03:02:58,677 --> 03:03:00,078
thinking terms of the previous

4664
03:03:00,078 --> 03:03:00,679
favor. We will never walk the

4665
03:03:00,679 --> 03:03:01,513
pervious. In other words.

4666
03:03:01,513 --> 03:03:04,316
>> I’ve seen River Rock and

4667
03:03:04,316 --> 03:03:06,718
River Act really works good.

4668
03:03:06,718 --> 03:03:07,319
That drains it drains. And at

4669
03:03:07,319 --> 03:03:11,256
that corner. There’s a lot of

4670
03:03:11,256 --> 03:03:13,659
water. Yes, I completely agree

4671
03:03:13,659 --> 03:03:14,626
with the RiverWalk in terms

4672
03:03:14,626 --> 03:03:15,661
of, you know, I was going to

4673
03:03:15,661 --> 03:03:17,396
put something down that I

4674
03:03:17,396 --> 03:03:18,897
really want you know, high porosity. That’s gonna

4675
03:03:18,897 --> 03:03:19,498
something water right there.

4676
03:03:19,498 --> 03:03:21,300
Definitely river up.

4677
03:03:21,300 --> 03:03:21,967
>> I don’t believe the ldc

4678
03:03:21,967 --> 03:03:22,534
would allow for parking on

4679
03:03:22,534 --> 03:03:25,137
River Rock.

4680
03:03:25,137 --> 03:03:28,340
>> Liver out these driveways.

4681
03:03:28,340 --> 03:03:30,642
On a private residential.

4682
03:03:30,642 --> 03:03:31,543
Absolutely. I I’m sure they

4683
03:03:31,543 --> 03:03:32,311
could allow that. But on a

4684
03:03:32,311 --> 03:03:32,878
commercial parking area, I

4685
03:03:32,878 --> 03:03:33,412
don’t believe that that’s

4686
03:03:33,412 --> 03:03:37,883
allowed per code.

4687
03:03:37,883 --> 03:03:41,086
>> Commissioner Base. Hi,

4688
03:03:41,086 --> 03:03:45,324
great plan. Couple things.

4689
03:03:45,324 --> 03:03:45,891
particularly interested in

4690
03:03:45,891 --> 03:03:47,259
your landscape plan. You have

4691
03:03:47,259 --> 03:03:49,795
a

4692
03:03:49,795 --> 03:03:53,832
>> for great river. Birch 9

4693
03:03:53,832 --> 03:03:58,437
Longleaf Pine. 7 Live oak and

4694
03:03:58,437 --> 03:04:02,975
taint 10. We help winged elm

4695
03:04:02,975 --> 03:04:03,542
the wind down and the river

4696
03:04:03,542 --> 03:04:04,910
birch are both very deciduous

4697
03:04:04,910 --> 03:04:08,947
center and I think what

4698
03:04:08,947 --> 03:04:14,853
listening to. Our residents,

4699
03:04:14,853 --> 03:04:18,457
our constituents, the I don’t

4700
03:04:18,457 --> 03:04:21,593
know if there would be a

4701
03:04:21,593 --> 03:04:22,794
consideration. There. Maybe

4702
03:04:22,794 --> 03:04:25,063
put live oaks and reduced down

4703
03:04:25,063 --> 03:04:25,631
those so that you get that

4704
03:04:25,631 --> 03:04:28,634
true because you’re calling

4705
03:04:28,634 --> 03:04:30,769
the canopy and maybe just

4706
03:04:30,769 --> 03:04:32,237
upscale the size, the the

4707
03:04:32,237 --> 03:04:35,440
diameter of as opposed to

4708
03:04:35,440 --> 03:04:36,274
putting container plant in.

4709
03:04:36,274 --> 03:04:36,908
Maybe you put a 3 inch caliber

4710
03:04:36,908 --> 03:04:42,514
put less. Canopies trees and

4711
03:04:42,514 --> 03:04:43,115
but goes with something that

4712
03:04:43,115 --> 03:04:48,153
you have more significance.

4713
03:04:48,153 --> 03:04:49,087
Right off the bat. So that was

4714
03:04:49,087 --> 03:04:51,823
the wing. And then what else?

4715
03:04:51,823 --> 03:04:53,025
I’m sorry. You have the wing

4716
03:04:53,025 --> 03:04:55,761
elm and you have the river.

4717
03:04:55,761 --> 03:04:56,361
Birch River birch are pretty,

4718
03:04:56,361 --> 03:04:57,362
but they’re both deciduous got

4719
03:04:57,362 --> 03:05:00,432
so during, you know, come

4720
03:05:00,432 --> 03:05:01,066
fall, you’re not going to have

4721
03:05:01,066 --> 03:05:04,069
any leaves until early spring.

4722
03:05:04,069 --> 03:05:06,405
Again. So our landscape we’re

4723
03:05:06,405 --> 03:05:07,839
happy to make any

4724
03:05:07,839 --> 03:05:08,440
modifications are landscape.

4725
03:05:08,440 --> 03:05:08,940
Plan was prepared by a

4726
03:05:08,940 --> 03:05:10,709
landscape architect. I’m not a

4727
03:05:10,709 --> 03:05:11,176
landscape architect.

4728
03:05:11,176 --> 03:05:12,577
>> I defer to them and those

4729
03:05:12,577 --> 03:05:14,780
matters. I assume from what I

4730
03:05:14,780 --> 03:05:15,781
little bit. I know it’s they

4731
03:05:15,781 --> 03:05:17,582
have to certain diversity

4732
03:05:17,582 --> 03:05:18,784
criteria as outlined in DC and

4733
03:05:18,784 --> 03:05:21,453
they made the selections based

4734
03:05:21,453 --> 03:05:21,987
on their experience. But

4735
03:05:21,987 --> 03:05:25,123
perhaps we could. Structured

4736
03:05:25,123 --> 03:05:25,724
such that at that time we can

4737
03:05:25,724 --> 03:05:27,959
work with staff to do.

4738
03:05:27,959 --> 03:05:28,593
>> I think what happens is

4739
03:05:28,593 --> 03:05:29,094
many times we when new

4740
03:05:29,094 --> 03:05:32,064
developments come in, they put

4741
03:05:32,064 --> 03:05:35,967
container product in. It takes

4742
03:05:35,967 --> 03:05:37,069
forever to look like it’s

4743
03:05:37,069 --> 03:05:39,104
mature and half the time. It’s

4744
03:05:39,104 --> 03:05:39,671
dying before it ever takes

4745
03:05:39,671 --> 03:05:43,475
off. And I think if you put

4746
03:05:43,475 --> 03:05:45,610
less product in but better

4747
03:05:45,610 --> 03:05:46,645
quality product at the get-go.

4748
03:05:46,645 --> 03:05:47,145
I think it has a better

4749
03:05:47,145 --> 03:05:47,746
outcome and I think it’s more

4750
03:05:47,746 --> 03:05:51,450
what? What the community is

4751
03:05:51,450 --> 03:05:52,084
looking for. I think they want

4752
03:05:52,084 --> 03:05:53,185
something that has the look

4753
03:05:53,185 --> 03:05:57,089
of. It’s established. I

4754
03:05:57,089 --> 03:05:57,723
definitely be open to that. We

4755
03:05:57,723 --> 03:05:58,990
can work with joy out of best

4756
03:05:58,990 --> 03:05:59,591
condition, not so that we use

4757
03:05:59,591 --> 03:06:01,093
more established trees.

4758
03:06:01,093 --> 03:06:02,060
>> As long as we’re getting

4759
03:06:02,060 --> 03:06:02,928
the same criteria mitigation,

4760
03:06:02,928 --> 03:06:03,562
I don’t think it makes much of

4761
03:06:03,562 --> 03:06:06,231
a difference to us.

4762
03:06:06,231 --> 03:06:07,666
>> Yeah, I mean, you know, you

4763
03:06:07,666 --> 03:06:09,367
have the it like if you

4764
03:06:09,367 --> 03:06:15,006
Holly’s or something, that keeps the.

4765
03:06:15,006 --> 03:06:17,075
Consistency. Well, you know,

4766
03:06:17,075 --> 03:06:19,144
during fall might do that,

4767
03:06:19,144 --> 03:06:19,945
you’re not sitting there with

4768
03:06:19,945 --> 03:06:24,649
the stick, Mr. And crape

4769
03:06:24,649 --> 03:06:26,051
myrtle. So you call 5 One of

4770
03:06:26,051 --> 03:06:29,488
snow pokes out of it.

4771
03:06:29,488 --> 03:06:32,924
>> Anyone questions. just I

4772
03:06:32,924 --> 03:06:36,328
will say this just. So when

4773
03:06:36,328 --> 03:06:37,095
you talk about the impervious,

4774
03:06:37,095 --> 03:06:38,997
are you talking about the

4775
03:06:38,997 --> 03:06:41,133
honeycomb with the rock in it

4776
03:06:41,133 --> 03:06:42,901
or you’re just as this is just

4777
03:06:42,901 --> 03:06:46,071
a tile like a tile that’s

4778
03:06:46,071 --> 03:06:47,272
previous. It’s a paver block.

4779
03:06:47,272 --> 03:06:47,906
So it’s it’s kind of like they

4780
03:06:47,906 --> 03:06:49,975
went together their a college

4781
03:06:49,975 --> 03:06:51,042
shape.

4782
03:06:51,042 --> 03:06:52,077
>> And then they have grass in

4783
03:06:52,077 --> 03:06:53,712
between. So it’s like a

4784
03:06:53,712 --> 03:06:54,246
pervious surface previous

4785
03:06:54,246 --> 03:06:55,480
parking. So it has some

4786
03:06:55,480 --> 03:06:57,349
structural component. So that

4787
03:06:57,349 --> 03:06:58,950
will last. But it does allow

4788
03:06:58,950 --> 03:06:59,518
water to percolate through.

4789
03:06:59,518 --> 03:07:01,153
And I love that. That’s great.

4790
03:07:01,153 --> 03:07:04,422
And I love and I’m totally on

4791
03:07:04,422 --> 03:07:11,530
board with 55 parking spaces.

4792
03:07:11,530 --> 03:07:26,645
Let’s get to.

4793
03:07:26,645 --> 03:07:32,484
Okay. That’s a

4794
03:07:32,484 --> 03:07:33,985
tried to add address as they

4795
03:07:33,985 --> 03:07:34,786
go conditions of approval that

4796
03:07:34,786 --> 03:07:37,455
are being recommended by the

4797
03:07:37,455 --> 03:07:38,056
PC. You can refer to the

4798
03:07:38,056 --> 03:07:38,590
ordinance rather than the

4799
03:07:38,590 --> 03:07:42,127
staff report of the ordinance.

4800
03:07:42,127 --> 03:07:43,161
>> does reflect some of the

4801
03:07:43,161 --> 03:07:43,995
last minute things that they

4802
03:07:43,995 --> 03:07:45,230
submitted. So that starts on

4803
03:07:45,230 --> 03:07:46,598
Page 3.72 of your packet

4804
03:07:46,598 --> 03:07:47,232
rather than the conditions and

4805
03:07:47,232 --> 03:07:51,269
the staff report. So this

4806
03:07:51,269 --> 03:07:52,304
site, you’ve seen it. You’ve

4807
03:07:52,304 --> 03:07:54,206
all seen this on state old

4808
03:07:54,206 --> 03:07:55,373
State Farm property on 19.

4809
03:07:55,373 --> 03:07:56,575
It’s about one and a half

4810
03:07:56,575 --> 03:07:57,409
acres. And yes, it is

4811
03:07:57,409 --> 03:07:58,009
crumbling there. Elect, have

4812
03:07:58,009 --> 03:08:00,412
you want to call it? There’s

4813
03:08:00,412 --> 03:08:01,680
no apparent storm wider. It is

4814
03:08:01,680 --> 03:08:02,280
surrounded on 4 sides by road

4815
03:08:02,280 --> 03:08:07,886
way. It is. It does have an

4816
03:08:07,886 --> 03:08:08,920
expired pods. So you heard

4817
03:08:08,920 --> 03:08:10,055
some references to what they

4818
03:08:10,055 --> 03:08:11,223
were previously approved for.

4819
03:08:11,223 --> 03:08:12,724
That’s not currently in effect

4820
03:08:12,724 --> 03:08:14,459
because the has expired since

4821
03:08:14,459 --> 03:08:15,961
that time. But they are asking

4822
03:08:15,961 --> 03:08:16,561
for some of the deviations

4823
03:08:16,561 --> 03:08:20,398
that were approved previously.

4824
03:08:20,398 --> 03:08:23,501
So this is their stat. This is

4825
03:08:23,501 --> 03:08:24,069
the site I’ll tell you that

4826
03:08:24,069 --> 03:08:27,572
this applicant started as a

4827
03:08:27,572 --> 03:08:28,540
very big algae. And SIU says

4828
03:08:28,540 --> 03:08:30,175
we’re going to move However,

4829
03:08:30,175 --> 03:08:32,143
we want. And they’ve done a

4830
03:08:32,143 --> 03:08:32,777
really good job, tightening it

4831
03:08:32,777 --> 03:08:34,613
up. So I do compliment them on

4832
03:08:34,613 --> 03:08:37,849
that. It’s now to the point of

4833
03:08:37,849 --> 03:08:38,717
the condition is a quick

4834
03:08:38,717 --> 03:08:39,818
service restaurant with

4835
03:08:39,818 --> 03:08:40,452
online. Pick it up, pick up

4836
03:08:40,452 --> 03:08:42,387
window and a coffee shop with

4837
03:08:42,387 --> 03:08:43,622
drive-thru. And we have this.

4838
03:08:43,622 --> 03:08:46,558
started this particular plan.

4839
03:08:46,558 --> 03:08:48,660
We do a lot of time. Seymour

4840
03:08:48,660 --> 03:08:49,261
landscaping. You saw staffer

4841
03:08:49,261 --> 03:08:52,831
you saw in them presentation.

4842
03:08:52,831 --> 03:08:54,065
But you don’t see than this.

4843
03:08:54,065 --> 03:08:54,666
You’re not being asked to

4844
03:08:54,666 --> 03:08:55,300
consider those detailed plans.

4845
03:08:55,300 --> 03:08:57,602
Just this plan, some of the

4846
03:08:57,602 --> 03:08:58,837
great things that they’re

4847
03:08:58,837 --> 03:09:00,138
doing here. They are removing

4848
03:09:00,138 --> 03:09:00,739
those access points that are

4849
03:09:00,739 --> 03:09:02,674
outlined in blue. There’s a

4850
03:09:02,674 --> 03:09:06,077
lot there. They’re relocating

4851
03:09:06,077 --> 03:09:07,012
awkward act over to the side

4852
03:09:07,012 --> 03:09:07,913
right now. If you drive an

4853
03:09:07,913 --> 03:09:10,548
aqua duck car washes, it’s

4854
03:09:10,548 --> 03:09:11,082
basically pavement about

4855
03:09:11,082 --> 03:09:14,352
halfway pavement. There are 2

4856
03:09:14,352 --> 03:09:14,953
access points Pittsburgh. One

4857
03:09:14,953 --> 03:09:17,856
of those is being removed. The

4858
03:09:17,856 --> 03:09:19,190
big thing is that they want an

4859
03:09:19,190 --> 03:09:21,927
access assess a trail. Now,

4860
03:09:21,927 --> 03:09:23,828
that is huge because the

4861
03:09:23,828 --> 03:09:24,362
previous time would not

4862
03:09:24,362 --> 03:09:25,397
approve that. There is a

4863
03:09:25,397 --> 03:09:27,132
problem with how close it is

4864
03:09:27,132 --> 03:09:29,234
to 19. They worked extensively

4865
03:09:29,234 --> 03:09:29,834
with our public works to try

4866
03:09:29,834 --> 03:09:30,602
to work this out. And you

4867
03:09:30,602 --> 03:09:32,437
heard the testimony from the

4868
03:09:32,437 --> 03:09:34,472
engineer. Our staff is here to

4869
03:09:34,472 --> 03:09:34,973
if you have a specific

4870
03:09:34,973 --> 03:09:35,674
questions about that, but they

4871
03:09:35,674 --> 03:09:37,943
found a way to get them there

4872
03:09:37,943 --> 03:09:38,643
with the right in right now

4873
03:09:38,643 --> 03:09:41,446
with some safety mechanisms.

4874
03:09:41,446 --> 03:09:43,448
So this is one of the 2 access

4875
03:09:43,448 --> 03:09:44,282
points that are in Pittsburgh

4876
03:09:44,282 --> 03:09:46,818
that they’re trying to remove

4877
03:09:46,818 --> 03:09:48,186
pointing out on Pittsburgh.

4878
03:09:48,186 --> 03:09:49,921
This is one of our tree

4879
03:09:49,921 --> 03:09:51,089
maintain canopy areas. So this

4880
03:09:51,089 --> 03:09:51,723
particular roadway, you should

4881
03:09:51,723 --> 03:09:52,324
not be removing any trees

4882
03:09:52,324 --> 03:09:56,361
close to the roadway. So too

4883
03:09:56,361 --> 03:09:58,330
their compliment. They are

4884
03:09:58,330 --> 03:10:00,532
actually keeping one of the

4885
03:10:00,532 --> 03:10:01,166
trees should do that this time

4886
03:10:01,166 --> 03:10:04,169
no matter next slide. This is

4887
03:10:04,169 --> 03:10:05,270
across the street on

4888
03:10:05,270 --> 03:10:06,271
racetrack. This will also come

4889
03:10:06,271 --> 03:10:08,106
up a little bit because the

4890
03:10:08,106 --> 03:10:09,941
access assess a trail is

4891
03:10:09,941 --> 03:10:10,508
across from this particular

4892
03:10:10,508 --> 03:10:15,046
access point. So looking at

4893
03:10:15,046 --> 03:10:16,081
their staff report and

4894
03:10:16,081 --> 03:10:16,948
coloring it in. So some of the

4895
03:10:16,948 --> 03:10:18,083
things that they’re asking

4896
03:10:18,083 --> 03:10:20,051
for, you heard the 75%

4897
03:10:20,051 --> 03:10:20,585
impervious surface. And I

4898
03:10:20,585 --> 03:10:22,187
heard some of you talk about

4899
03:10:22,187 --> 03:10:23,521
how great the paving czar, the

4900
03:10:23,521 --> 03:10:25,991
pavers and pervious pavement.

4901
03:10:25,991 --> 03:10:28,226
Just a caution. The reason we

4902
03:10:28,226 --> 03:10:29,094
don’t expect except those

4903
03:10:29,094 --> 03:10:30,228
anymore is because no one

4904
03:10:30,228 --> 03:10:32,130
maintain them. They always

4905
03:10:32,130 --> 03:10:32,697
were repeatedly repeatedly

4906
03:10:32,697 --> 03:10:35,033
repeat the paid over because

4907
03:10:35,033 --> 03:10:36,067
they’re hard to maintain grass

4908
03:10:36,067 --> 03:10:36,668
grows through Nobody wants to

4909
03:10:36,668 --> 03:10:40,772
keep them up. We saw over and over that they were

4910
03:10:40,772 --> 03:10:41,506
paved the same thing with the

4911
03:10:41,506 --> 03:10:43,408
previous pavement. It’s hard

4912
03:10:43,408 --> 03:10:45,477
to maintain. So people just

4913
03:10:45,477 --> 03:10:46,845
pave over when they when they

4914
03:10:46,845 --> 03:10:48,713
redid their parking lot with

4915
03:10:48,713 --> 03:10:50,782
regular pavement. So it didn’t

4916
03:10:50,782 --> 03:10:52,150
work calculation wise. That’s

4917
03:10:52,150 --> 03:10:53,918
why we don’t accept it as part

4918
03:10:53,918 --> 03:10:54,953
of ISR. It’s not needed there

4919
03:10:54,953 --> 03:10:58,289
just telling you they’re planning on doing it.

4920
03:10:58,289 --> 03:11:01,226
They can. But it’s it’s it’s

4921
03:11:01,226 --> 03:11:02,994
under that 75% impervious

4922
03:11:02,994 --> 03:11:03,728
surface, which the PDC had. No

4923
03:11:03,728 --> 03:11:06,831
problem with 70% their

4924
03:11:06,831 --> 03:11:08,099
maximum. They’re offering to

4925
03:11:08,099 --> 03:11:08,700
do a portion of that. They’re

4926
03:11:08,700 --> 03:11:12,137
still going to need 75%. So I

4927
03:11:12,137 --> 03:11:12,704
have stars on here for the

4928
03:11:12,704 --> 03:11:15,173
specimen trees. There are 2

4929
03:11:15,173 --> 03:11:16,241
on-site originally. They both

4930
03:11:16,241 --> 03:11:18,843
were proposed for removal.

4931
03:11:18,843 --> 03:11:19,477
They were able resist redesign

4932
03:11:19,477 --> 03:11:21,312
and the one to the bottom

4933
03:11:21,312 --> 03:11:22,514
right there. They’re going to

4934
03:11:22,514 --> 03:11:24,549
keep now that is on Pittsburgh

4935
03:11:24,549 --> 03:11:25,350
where our tree canopy area is.

4936
03:11:25,350 --> 03:11:27,218
I’m very happy that that tree

4937
03:11:27,218 --> 03:11:29,187
staying there is one of the

4938
03:11:29,187 --> 03:11:29,754
right way they can actually

4939
03:11:29,754 --> 03:11:31,222
touch either. But that’s

4940
03:11:31,222 --> 03:11:32,257
staying than the one of the

4941
03:11:32,257 --> 03:11:33,792
north side, the PTC that can

4942
03:11:33,792 --> 03:11:35,527
confirm listening to the

4943
03:11:35,527 --> 03:11:37,562
applicant and you see staff

4944
03:11:37,562 --> 03:11:38,997
review and they’re agreeing

4945
03:11:38,997 --> 03:11:39,898
with their arborists man. That

4946
03:11:39,898 --> 03:11:40,532
was unfortunately probably has

4947
03:11:40,532 --> 03:11:43,935
to go. As far as buffers.

4948
03:11:43,935 --> 03:11:44,803
They’re required to have a 10

4949
03:11:44,803 --> 03:11:47,038
foot buffer on all side

4950
03:11:47,038 --> 03:11:47,639
previously in Twenty-twenty

4951
03:11:47,639 --> 03:11:50,408
they had a 5 foot on 2 sides.

4952
03:11:50,408 --> 03:11:51,676
PDC did not support that. They

4953
03:11:51,676 --> 03:11:53,178
felt there was not a

4954
03:11:53,178 --> 03:11:56,281
demonstrated need for the 10

4955
03:11:56,281 --> 03:11:57,282
foot Buffer commissioner base

4956
03:11:57,282 --> 03:11:59,250
points very well taken. It’s

4957
03:11:59,250 --> 03:12:00,051
very important as far as what

4958
03:12:00,051 --> 03:12:00,919
treason, what plantings you

4959
03:12:00,919 --> 03:12:05,156
use that talking to the

4960
03:12:05,156 --> 03:12:05,790
applicant beforehand, they may

4961
03:12:05,790 --> 03:12:08,259
be able to do a 5 foot with a

4962
03:12:08,259 --> 03:12:09,194
Type B, which is a little bit

4963
03:12:09,194 --> 03:12:11,963
more enhanced and we can work

4964
03:12:11,963 --> 03:12:12,564
with them on some of the some

4965
03:12:12,564 --> 03:12:13,965
of the landscaping

4966
03:12:13,965 --> 03:12:15,200
specifically said that its

4967
03:12:15,200 --> 03:12:15,800
year-round foliage, that this

4968
03:12:15,800 --> 03:12:16,401
kind of important, especially

4969
03:12:16,401 --> 03:12:22,073
in Pittsburgh. The applicant

4970
03:12:22,073 --> 03:12:23,374
also proposed the learning

4971
03:12:23,374 --> 03:12:24,109
zone to say loading unloading

4972
03:12:24,109 --> 03:12:26,144
shall occur only in off hours

4973
03:12:26,144 --> 03:12:27,312
for the businesses on sites.

4974
03:12:27,312 --> 03:12:27,912
That was something discussed

4975
03:12:27,912 --> 03:12:30,048
at the PDC. Very happy that one that condition was

4976
03:12:30,048 --> 03:12:35,653
added in there. This is the

4977
03:12:35,653 --> 03:12:36,254
existing tree. They’re going

4978
03:12:36,254 --> 03:12:37,088
to keep on Pittsburgh and you

4979
03:12:37,088 --> 03:12:38,756
can see kind of the canopy

4980
03:12:38,756 --> 03:12:39,591
along Pittsburgh area. This

4981
03:12:39,591 --> 03:12:40,058
car wash will happily

4982
03:12:40,058 --> 03:12:43,628
comedown. And this is some of

4983
03:12:43,628 --> 03:12:44,262
the state park building. This

4984
03:12:44,262 --> 03:12:44,863
is tree that’s actually going

4985
03:12:44,863 --> 03:12:49,567
to be removed. So again, this

4986
03:12:49,567 --> 03:12:50,668
is a staff report. The PDC did

4987
03:12:50,668 --> 03:12:53,671
review this on August, 8th

4988
03:12:53,671 --> 03:12:54,839
Twenty-twenty 6. They had no

4989
03:12:54,839 --> 03:12:56,674
concerns other than the

4990
03:12:56,674 --> 03:12:59,511
reduced buffer. They did not

4991
03:12:59,511 --> 03:13:00,745
like that. They they supported

4992
03:13:00,745 --> 03:13:01,446
the 75% they understood the

4993
03:13:01,446 --> 03:13:05,150
removal of the specimen. Trees

4994
03:13:05,150 --> 03:13:06,284
and the conditions public

4995
03:13:06,284 --> 03:13:06,851
works as far as the access

4996
03:13:06,851 --> 03:13:12,624
point. Or do have any

4997
03:13:12,624 --> 03:13:17,962
questions for could too?

4998
03:13:17,962 --> 03:13:18,530
Commissioner Canard just a

4999
03:13:18,530 --> 03:13:22,333
comment. Thank you for.

5000
03:13:22,333 --> 03:13:24,302
Informing us to why we don’t

5001
03:13:24,302 --> 03:13:25,737
accept sitting up. You’re

5002
03:13:25,737 --> 03:13:27,338
going want to something else

5003
03:13:27,338 --> 03:13:27,906
and so logical them. makes

5004
03:13:27,906 --> 03:13:30,308
perfect sense. Thank you.

5005
03:13:30,308 --> 03:13:33,578
>> Any other questions Would

5006
03:13:33,578 --> 03:13:37,749
it make any difference if? I

5007
03:13:37,749 --> 03:13:38,383
mean, you see it a lot to with

5008
03:13:38,383 --> 03:13:44,122
the honeycomb in the gravel

5009
03:13:44,122 --> 03:13:44,722
fabulously which I wish

5010
03:13:44,722 --> 03:13:45,390
everything west of 19 was

5011
03:13:45,390 --> 03:13:49,360
required to do that. And

5012
03:13:49,360 --> 03:13:50,461
that’s where we saw them back

5013
03:13:50,461 --> 03:13:51,796
it back years ago. And I’m

5014
03:13:51,796 --> 03:13:52,397
sure that engineers can talk

5015
03:13:52,397 --> 03:13:53,865
about it to people just didn’t

5016
03:13:53,865 --> 03:13:55,033
keep them.

5017
03:13:55,033 --> 03:13:55,633
>> So that they they’re hard

5018
03:13:55,633 --> 03:13:57,635
to maintain people that you

5019
03:13:57,635 --> 03:13:58,469
hear the complaints were

5020
03:13:58,469 --> 03:13:59,037
catching her shoes in them.

5021
03:13:59,037 --> 03:14:01,439
That kind of thing. And then

5022
03:14:01,439 --> 03:14:02,440
they would just be paved over.

5023
03:14:02,440 --> 03:14:04,342
So unfortunate. Didn’t say

5024
03:14:04,342 --> 03:14:06,277
Purvis. They look nice in the

5025
03:14:06,277 --> 03:14:06,945
beginning. They look great,

5026
03:14:06,945 --> 03:14:10,248
but they weren’t kept up. And

5027
03:14:10,248 --> 03:14:10,848
we saw over and over so many

5028
03:14:10,848 --> 03:14:13,084
times that were like, forget

5029
03:14:13,084 --> 03:14:16,054
it. Even if they did that to a

5030
03:14:16,054 --> 03:14:16,688
new approve previous year, the

5031
03:14:16,688 --> 03:14:18,623
75%? It’s covered. So on this

5032
03:14:18,623 --> 03:14:19,190
particular application not

5033
03:14:19,190 --> 03:14:23,194
needed. I get that. It’s not

5034
03:14:23,194 --> 03:14:26,531
needed. But the idea that. I

5035
03:14:26,531 --> 03:14:27,832
agree, but they’re just not

5036
03:14:27,832 --> 03:14:28,800
keeping it. And we don’t go

5037
03:14:28,800 --> 03:14:29,400
out there and inspect. And it

5038
03:14:29,400 --> 03:14:32,136
was a constant as far as storm

5039
03:14:32,136 --> 03:14:32,637
water. That additional

5040
03:14:32,637 --> 03:14:35,640
impervious is a problem

5041
03:14:35,640 --> 03:14:36,174
because their storm water

5042
03:14:36,174 --> 03:14:36,708
didn’t account for that

5043
03:14:36,708 --> 03:14:40,645
because wasn’t part of it. Any

5044
03:14:40,645 --> 03:14:44,415
further questions.

5045
03:14:44,415 --> 03:14:45,016
>> Okay. At this time opening

5046
03:14:45,016 --> 03:14:47,685
up for public comment.

5047
03:14:47,685 --> 03:14:48,286
>> and I do have public works

5048
03:14:48,286 --> 03:14:48,853
here. If you have questions

5049
03:14:48,853 --> 03:15:00,632
for them.

5050
03:15:00,632 --> 03:15:01,199
>> Former number 3 minutes

5051
03:15:01,199 --> 03:15:01,799
unless you have a letter on

5052
03:15:01,799 --> 03:15:04,202
file, keep all. Comments

5053
03:15:04,202 --> 03:15:12,143
directed to need the chairman.

5054
03:15:12,143 --> 03:15:12,744
>> Good afternoon. My name is

5055
03:15:12,744 --> 03:15:19,284
Chuck. Only from Inverness. I

5056
03:15:19,284 --> 03:15:20,118
like to remove the deviation

5057
03:15:20,118 --> 03:15:25,790
of specimen tree. There. It

5058
03:15:25,790 --> 03:15:27,659
ended with a thing to Phillips

5059
03:15:27,659 --> 03:15:28,259
there. she has a report here

5060
03:15:28,259 --> 03:15:29,427
and he’s pretty good. Very

5061
03:15:29,427 --> 03:15:34,065
good to healthy tree. I

5062
03:15:34,065 --> 03:15:37,001
started thinking about wild

5063
03:15:37,001 --> 03:15:37,602
orchids and enormous asset. A

5064
03:15:37,602 --> 03:15:39,037
lot of the Live Oaks have wild

5065
03:15:39,037 --> 03:15:43,941
orchids in there. more than

5066
03:15:43,941 --> 03:15:45,843
100 native species in Florida,

5067
03:15:45,843 --> 03:15:49,814
70 of them face threat of

5068
03:15:49,814 --> 03:15:52,050
extension. So I called the

5069
03:15:52,050 --> 03:15:56,854
nature Coast Orchid Society.

5070
03:15:56,854 --> 03:15:58,356
Jeff Frontal we went there to

5071
03:15:58,356 --> 03:16:01,592
that tree. You have been our

5072
03:16:01,592 --> 03:16:02,593
colors. Workers are up on the

5073
03:16:02,593 --> 03:16:06,864
high high high branches we

5074
03:16:06,864 --> 03:16:09,267
could not identify for a

5075
03:16:09,267 --> 03:16:10,168
couple reasons. They’re gone

5076
03:16:10,168 --> 03:16:11,869
to a drought situations for

5077
03:16:11,869 --> 03:16:12,837
the or could may have been

5078
03:16:12,837 --> 03:16:16,908
recluse. They’re not blooming

5079
03:16:16,908 --> 03:16:20,178
right at this particular time.

5080
03:16:20,178 --> 03:16:23,247
So he felt somewhat confident

5081
03:16:23,247 --> 03:16:23,848
that maybe your kids in that

5082
03:16:23,848 --> 03:16:27,919
tree. while I was there with

5083
03:16:27,919 --> 03:16:34,025
Athena. There were 2 dogs that

5084
03:16:34,025 --> 03:16:35,860
flew into that. Tree for

5085
03:16:35,860 --> 03:16:38,896
shade. I later identified

5086
03:16:38,896 --> 03:16:51,743
them. As the night. A dog. And

5087
03:16:51,743 --> 03:16:52,343
they have a primary breeding

5088
03:16:52,343 --> 03:16:54,712
season march through August.

5089
03:16:54,712 --> 03:16:55,813
And they have between one and

5090
03:16:55,813 --> 03:16:59,617
4 broods the year. So maybe

5091
03:16:59,617 --> 03:17:03,488
the have a nest and that tree.

5092
03:17:03,488 --> 03:17:06,691
Then finally. If there’s going

5093
03:17:06,691 --> 03:17:07,325
to be a Starbucks coffee, put

5094
03:17:07,325 --> 03:17:11,596
there. I know they have a

5095
03:17:11,596 --> 03:17:16,234
corporate environment policy.

5096
03:17:16,234 --> 03:17:18,169
have a shade, canopy,

5097
03:17:18,169 --> 03:17:21,239
preservation to protect and

5098
03:17:21,239 --> 03:17:21,839
maintain exists that existing

5099
03:17:21,839 --> 03:17:24,409
native shade trees, species

5100
03:17:24,409 --> 03:17:29,881
vendor farms and 4. Countries.

5101
03:17:29,881 --> 03:17:30,648
We also have a climate,

5102
03:17:30,648 --> 03:17:33,217
resilient tree distribution

5103
03:17:33,217 --> 03:17:36,754
again on foreign lands. I

5104
03:17:36,754 --> 03:17:39,657
would be a new Starbucks

5105
03:17:39,657 --> 03:17:40,358
customer knowing a certain

5106
03:17:40,358 --> 03:17:41,692
percentage of a cup of coffee

5107
03:17:41,692 --> 03:17:44,429
went to preserve this

5108
03:17:44,429 --> 03:17:46,931
magnificent specimen, libel

5109
03:17:46,931 --> 03:17:51,369
here in Homosassa, Florida.

5110
03:17:51,369 --> 03:17:53,738
It’s I’m speaking for the

5111
03:17:53,738 --> 03:17:55,673
tree. Thank you for coming. So

5112
03:17:55,673 --> 03:18:03,481
thank U next speaker. PJ

5113
03:18:03,481 --> 03:18:05,983
off-camera Citrus County. With

5114
03:18:05,983 --> 03:18:07,752
all due respect to Mr. Snow,

5115
03:18:07,752 --> 03:18:10,388
you know nothing. Jon Snow.

5116
03:18:10,388 --> 03:18:12,957
>> To me, please.

5117
03:18:12,957 --> 03:18:13,558
>> I’m sorry. I’m a big Game

5118
03:18:13,558 --> 03:18:18,162
of Thrones fan. I’m from

5119
03:18:18,162 --> 03:18:20,298
Miami. Coconut Grove,

5120
03:18:20,298 --> 03:18:22,300
specifically and I know for

5121
03:18:22,300 --> 03:18:24,135
fact, the trees like this can

5122
03:18:24,135 --> 03:18:25,436
be Safed. It’s just a matter

5123
03:18:25,436 --> 03:18:26,170
of the will of the property

5124
03:18:26,170 --> 03:18:30,875
owner to do it. My friends,

5125
03:18:30,875 --> 03:18:31,642
Roger Hamer and the former

5126
03:18:31,642 --> 03:18:32,210
president of the Arborists

5127
03:18:32,210 --> 03:18:36,147
Association in Florida. They

5128
03:18:36,147 --> 03:18:37,348
say Hammer, we say Hammer

5129
03:18:37,348 --> 03:18:37,949
worked on quite a few trees

5130
03:18:37,949 --> 03:18:39,951
that were much larger than

5131
03:18:39,951 --> 03:18:42,420
this that were saved. Depend

5132
03:18:42,420 --> 03:18:45,623
similar situations Mr. Snow

5133
03:18:45,623 --> 03:18:46,791
said it’s in fair condition.

5134
03:18:46,791 --> 03:18:47,425
But you know what? We’ve been

5135
03:18:47,425 --> 03:18:49,427
in a drought and kind of fair

5136
03:18:49,427 --> 03:18:49,994
condition, too. I could use

5137
03:18:49,994 --> 03:18:54,232
some rain. They could do it.

5138
03:18:54,232 --> 03:18:57,869
They could save the tree. They

5139
03:18:57,869 --> 03:18:58,503
could read plan and they could

5140
03:18:58,503 --> 03:19:00,471
work around it. This is a tree

5141
03:19:00,471 --> 03:19:02,640
canopy area and putting in

5142
03:19:02,640 --> 03:19:03,608
mitigation no matter what we

5143
03:19:03,608 --> 03:19:05,510
put in. I mean, the stuff that

5144
03:19:05,510 --> 03:19:06,110
they put in that stuff, going

5145
03:19:06,110 --> 03:19:06,744
to dead in the year anyway. I

5146
03:19:06,744 --> 03:19:09,046
mean, you know, that. It’s not

5147
03:19:09,046 --> 03:19:11,616
stuff suitable for living

5148
03:19:11,616 --> 03:19:12,316
there. It’s just not not those

5149
03:19:12,316 --> 03:19:18,322
types of trees. This is your

5150
03:19:18,322 --> 03:19:19,123
chance to insert conditions

5151
03:19:19,123 --> 03:19:21,392
into these applications. If

5152
03:19:21,392 --> 03:19:21,993
you don’t like the pavers in

5153
03:19:21,993 --> 03:19:24,829
just one spot, but in the

5154
03:19:24,829 --> 03:19:25,463
condition that it all needs to

5155
03:19:25,463 --> 03:19:28,065
be those papers. you’re right.

5156
03:19:28,065 --> 03:19:32,970
That’s what you’re here for.

5157
03:19:32,970 --> 03:19:33,571
Going back to the arborist. I

5158
03:19:33,571 --> 03:19:34,505
believe it was Mister Bartman

5159
03:19:34,505 --> 03:19:37,775
us at the PDC mating who said,

5160
03:19:37,775 --> 03:19:38,276
yeah, they’ll bring an

5161
03:19:38,276 --> 03:19:41,078
arborist, the trees dying. We

5162
03:19:41,078 --> 03:19:41,679
can bring in another arborist

5163
03:19:41,679 --> 03:19:45,917
who says it doesn’t. Take

5164
03:19:45,917 --> 03:19:46,517
that. Take that with a grain

5165
03:19:46,517 --> 03:19:47,552
of salt with what they’re

5166
03:19:47,552 --> 03:19:49,453
hearing. They can plan around

5167
03:19:49,453 --> 03:19:53,057
it. My consideration is the

5168
03:19:53,057 --> 03:19:53,958
center median between the 2

5169
03:19:53,958 --> 03:19:54,559
buildings. Looks like there’s

5170
03:19:54,559 --> 03:19:57,495
a median there like to know

5171
03:19:57,495 --> 03:20:01,966
exactly how wide those 2 on

5172
03:20:01,966 --> 03:20:02,533
circulation areas are. They

5173
03:20:02,533 --> 03:20:03,167
don’t look like large enough

5174
03:20:03,167 --> 03:20:07,238
for fire truck or a semi to

5175
03:20:07,238 --> 03:20:09,340
get through. I’d like to know

5176
03:20:09,340 --> 03:20:11,142
the turn radius and what’s

5177
03:20:11,142 --> 03:20:11,976
planned for that or they just

5178
03:20:11,976 --> 03:20:13,911
only allowed to go on the

5179
03:20:13,911 --> 03:20:16,080
outskirts. We did not hear

5180
03:20:16,080 --> 03:20:17,715
about Starbucks and their

5181
03:20:17,715 --> 03:20:19,951
drive-thru windows and exactly

5182
03:20:19,951 --> 03:20:20,518
how they’re going to handle

5183
03:20:20,518 --> 03:20:21,118
that. We know what’s happened

5184
03:20:21,118 --> 03:20:22,753
with Dunkin Donuts all over

5185
03:20:22,753 --> 03:20:24,422
this county expanding out into

5186
03:20:24,422 --> 03:20:27,325
the streets and blocking

5187
03:20:27,325 --> 03:20:28,559
roadways and Homosassa Trail

5188
03:20:28,559 --> 03:20:29,193
in coming years is going to be

5189
03:20:29,193 --> 03:20:31,862
very busy road because we have

5190
03:20:31,862 --> 03:20:32,496
very few roads that go in that

5191
03:20:32,496 --> 03:20:36,534
direction. We need to plan

5192
03:20:36,534 --> 03:20:38,936
properly and do our due

5193
03:20:38,936 --> 03:20:39,570
diligence and, you know, I may

5194
03:20:39,570 --> 03:20:42,006
be nice to mice. Nice looking

5195
03:20:42,006 --> 03:20:45,876
site plan, but needs work.

5196
03:20:45,876 --> 03:20:46,410
Really nice work if we’re

5197
03:20:46,410 --> 03:20:47,044
going to do our best and we’re

5198
03:20:47,044 --> 03:20:49,814
going to have tree canopy. So

5199
03:20:49,814 --> 03:20:51,482
I hope you would consider some

5200
03:20:51,482 --> 03:20:52,183
conditions. I hope you would

5201
03:20:52,183 --> 03:20:55,386
ask them to save the tree used

5202
03:20:55,386 --> 03:20:57,855
papers. It’s very least. And

5203
03:20:57,855 --> 03:20:59,690
that turned area crashing the

5204
03:20:59,690 --> 03:21:02,960
racetrack. How many people we

5205
03:21:02,960 --> 03:21:03,561
know got gas trucks are going

5206
03:21:03,561 --> 03:21:05,463
to get over that. We know it’s

5207
03:21:05,463 --> 03:21:08,599
going to happen. Thank you.

5208
03:21:08,599 --> 03:21:17,174
Next, speaker. Susan Nelson

5209
03:21:17,174 --> 03:21:21,846
Sala guns I love

5210
03:21:21,846 --> 03:21:27,318
accountability and influence.

5211
03:21:27,318 --> 03:21:27,952
And responsibility. And as and

5212
03:21:27,952 --> 03:21:28,552
I think I can’t phone anymore

5213
03:21:28,552 --> 03:21:32,523
love with those particular

5214
03:21:32,523 --> 03:21:34,692
things. However, occasionally

5215
03:21:34,692 --> 03:21:38,029
I do, they become aroused. And

5216
03:21:38,029 --> 03:21:40,931
I fall even deeper. Love with

5217
03:21:40,931 --> 03:21:43,968
And this sounds like a

5218
03:21:43,968 --> 03:21:45,002
wonderful plan because the

5219
03:21:45,002 --> 03:21:49,440
areas already anything. To

5220
03:21:49,440 --> 03:21:50,641
beautify it, which sounds like

5221
03:21:50,641 --> 03:21:53,277
they’re certainly going to

5222
03:21:53,277 --> 03:21:55,446
try. I wanted to have it

5223
03:21:55,446 --> 03:21:56,047
clarified if a tree is taken

5224
03:21:56,047 --> 03:21:57,748
out. Does that mean?

5225
03:21:57,748 --> 03:21:58,315
>> They have give money to

5226
03:21:58,315 --> 03:22:00,885
have a tree built somewhere

5227
03:22:00,885 --> 03:22:01,452
else. And then I hear that

5228
03:22:01,452 --> 03:22:03,988
they’re going to actually

5229
03:22:03,988 --> 03:22:08,392
please build 5. put in 5 or 6

5230
03:22:08,392 --> 03:22:10,795
more trees, which is above and

5231
03:22:10,795 --> 03:22:13,998
beyond with their. With. So

5232
03:22:13,998 --> 03:22:14,532
they get it sounds like a

5233
03:22:14,532 --> 03:22:16,801
wonderful plan. Thank you for

5234
03:22:16,801 --> 03:22:27,912
coming. Next. Speaker. Chris

5235
03:22:27,912 --> 03:22:31,749
Pratt McCanns only 3 months is

5236
03:22:31,749 --> 03:22:32,216
spent.

5237
03:22:32,216 --> 03:22:32,850
>> The issue I have with this,

5238
03:22:32,850 --> 03:22:33,417
I think issue that a lot of

5239
03:22:33,417 --> 03:22:36,821
people have in this community

5240
03:22:36,821 --> 03:22:39,056
people buy property and

5241
03:22:39,056 --> 03:22:40,091
they’re allowed to do with

5242
03:22:40,091 --> 03:22:41,125
their lot to do with For too

5243
03:22:41,125 --> 03:22:42,093
often, we allow them to more

5244
03:22:42,093 --> 03:22:42,693
than lot to do with You know,

5245
03:22:42,693 --> 03:22:44,128
we talk about communities

5246
03:22:44,128 --> 03:22:45,996
throughout this county doing,

5247
03:22:45,996 --> 03:22:50,234
you know. Buy or not do their

5248
03:22:50,234 --> 03:22:51,068
due diligence, you know,

5249
03:22:51,068 --> 03:22:52,603
buying into places that dirt

5250
03:22:52,603 --> 03:22:53,170
roads, things like that and

5251
03:22:53,170 --> 03:22:53,771
really mean leaving them for

5252
03:22:53,771 --> 03:22:55,639
making this purchase is here.

5253
03:22:55,639 --> 03:22:56,841
We have someone purchase

5254
03:22:56,841 --> 03:22:57,541
property. They know what they

5255
03:22:57,541 --> 03:22:59,710
can do with it. Another asking

5256
03:22:59,710 --> 03:23:00,277
for deviations, be on that.

5257
03:23:00,277 --> 03:23:00,911
Otherwise we wouldn’t be here

5258
03:23:00,911 --> 03:23:04,849
today. So the concern you

5259
03:23:04,849 --> 03:23:05,683
know, that’s the deviations

5260
03:23:05,683 --> 03:23:06,250
from trees and things like

5261
03:23:06,250 --> 03:23:07,351
that. We talk about the

5262
03:23:07,351 --> 03:23:10,454
pavers. If remove those papers

5263
03:23:10,454 --> 03:23:11,622
that removes 14 spaces, now

5264
03:23:11,622 --> 03:23:13,591
they’re only down to 45

5265
03:23:13,591 --> 03:23:14,158
parking spaces. They don’t

5266
03:23:14,158 --> 03:23:14,692
meet the Land development

5267
03:23:14,692 --> 03:23:15,326
code. so they’re asking us to

5268
03:23:15,326 --> 03:23:18,229
consider those as parking. the

5269
03:23:18,229 --> 03:23:19,029
question there’s who maintains

5270
03:23:19,029 --> 03:23:19,597
them and what happens when

5271
03:23:19,597 --> 03:23:22,266
they’re longer maintained with

5272
03:23:22,266 --> 03:23:22,767
requirement for them to

5273
03:23:22,767 --> 03:23:23,400
maintain its. And then we have

5274
03:23:23,400 --> 03:23:25,002
issues with those types of

5275
03:23:25,002 --> 03:23:26,971
things. So I would necessarily

5276
03:23:26,971 --> 03:23:28,639
count those as parking spaces

5277
03:23:28,639 --> 03:23:29,373
in their calculations, but

5278
03:23:29,373 --> 03:23:29,940
that’s kind of what they’re

5279
03:23:29,940 --> 03:23:30,508
doing. That looks like for

5280
03:23:30,508 --> 03:23:36,547
that the ordinance as here

5281
03:23:36,547 --> 03:23:36,981
it’s, you know, the

5282
03:23:36,981 --> 03:23:37,581
development shall allow for a

5283
03:23:37,581 --> 03:23:38,215
quick service restaurants with

5284
03:23:38,215 --> 03:23:41,585
online pickup window. What is

5285
03:23:41,585 --> 03:23:42,686
that? The find you know, they

5286
03:23:42,686 --> 03:23:44,755
said is all but that’s not

5287
03:23:44,755 --> 03:23:46,524
tied hold a that can be any

5288
03:23:46,524 --> 03:23:48,526
quick service restaurants.

5289
03:23:48,526 --> 03:23:49,126
McDonald’s is classified as a

5290
03:23:49,126 --> 03:23:49,660
quick service restaurant.

5291
03:23:49,660 --> 03:23:50,294
Burger King Wendy’s, those are

5292
03:23:50,294 --> 03:23:51,595
all classified as quick

5293
03:23:51,595 --> 03:23:52,163
service restaurants. Those

5294
03:23:52,163 --> 03:23:53,564
could be there at that

5295
03:23:53,564 --> 03:23:55,766
intersection. Obviously a

5296
03:23:55,766 --> 03:23:56,367
McDonald’s in those types of

5297
03:23:56,367 --> 03:23:58,636
things need more parking

5298
03:23:58,636 --> 03:23:59,236
spaces. They’re floating the

5299
03:23:59,236 --> 03:23:59,870
idea of these types of things.

5300
03:23:59,870 --> 03:24:01,505
But they’re not tied to that

5301
03:24:01,505 --> 03:24:03,474
development. So has approved

5302
03:24:03,474 --> 03:24:03,941
this year proving the

5303
03:24:03,941 --> 03:24:04,542
variances for the parking and

5304
03:24:04,542 --> 03:24:05,676
all those types of things for

5305
03:24:05,676 --> 03:24:08,712
whatever they decide to build

5306
03:24:08,712 --> 03:24:09,814
later on. That could be

5307
03:24:09,814 --> 03:24:11,615
Wendy’s or Burger It doesn’t

5308
03:24:11,615 --> 03:24:12,249
have to be that will take your

5309
03:24:12,249 --> 03:24:13,150
the Starbucks are not tied to

5310
03:24:13,150 --> 03:24:14,118
those developments. So kind of

5311
03:24:14,118 --> 03:24:17,888
consider that as well. And

5312
03:24:17,888 --> 03:24:18,989
then again, the impervious

5313
03:24:18,989 --> 03:24:20,991
surface ratio, that something

5314
03:24:20,991 --> 03:24:22,126
group previously. I would

5315
03:24:22,126 --> 03:24:23,227
suggest that we hold them to

5316
03:24:23,227 --> 03:24:23,861
what the land of on the go to.

5317
03:24:23,861 --> 03:24:24,795
So we have a lot of issues

5318
03:24:24,795 --> 03:24:27,765
with flooding adding 5% more

5319
03:24:27,765 --> 03:24:29,233
as a little more A little bit

5320
03:24:29,233 --> 03:24:30,768
more flooding, potential

5321
03:24:30,768 --> 03:24:31,836
things like that. So hold them

5322
03:24:31,836 --> 03:24:32,436
to the 70% of the land on the

5323
03:24:32,436 --> 03:24:33,771
contest. Thank you.

5324
03:24:33,771 --> 03:24:34,338
>> Thank you for a Commons.

5325
03:24:34,338 --> 03:24:43,147
Anyone

5326
03:24:43,147 --> 03:24:44,181
>> Sherry Lynn, when took a

5327
03:24:44,181 --> 03:24:48,219
Beverly Hills I’ve been here a

5328
03:24:48,219 --> 03:24:49,119
long time and there is a lot

5329
03:24:49,119 --> 03:24:51,622
of flooding at that

5330
03:24:51,622 --> 03:24:52,122
intersection and those

5331
03:24:52,122 --> 03:24:52,756
concerned about if he did take

5332
03:24:52,756 --> 03:24:55,426
the tree out the roots

5333
03:24:55,426 --> 03:24:56,827
obviously year pretty far in

5334
03:24:56,827 --> 03:24:57,394
the ground. We already have

5335
03:24:57,394 --> 03:25:00,497
issues with sinkholes and then

5336
03:25:00,497 --> 03:25:02,433
if traffic start backing up

5337
03:25:02,433 --> 03:25:03,400
around the is it going to

5338
03:25:03,400 --> 03:25:03,968
block the fire trucks when

5339
03:25:03,968 --> 03:25:06,670
they go out or is there going

5340
03:25:06,670 --> 03:25:07,171
to be an issue with the

5341
03:25:07,171 --> 03:25:10,407
traffic trying to Lou Brown

5342
03:25:10,407 --> 03:25:11,008
back roads and then we’ve got

5343
03:25:11,008 --> 03:25:13,244
the playground, which doesn’t

5344
03:25:13,244 --> 03:25:14,278
have a sufficient gator around

5345
03:25:14,278 --> 03:25:18,115
it of any kind. I mean, it’s

5346
03:25:18,115 --> 03:25:19,950
just there’s a lot of

5347
03:25:19,950 --> 03:25:20,951
concerning issue because that

5348
03:25:20,951 --> 03:25:21,452
area is some compacted

5349
03:25:21,452 --> 03:25:23,654
already. I would just really

5350
03:25:23,654 --> 03:25:27,958
consider. What what they’re

5351
03:25:27,958 --> 03:25:28,425
asking for.

5352
03:25:28,425 --> 03:25:29,059
>> Thank you for your comments

5353
03:25:29,059 --> 03:25:39,937
next. Speaker. To state money.

5354
03:25:39,937 --> 03:25:44,041
Jennifer Grogan Inverness

5355
03:25:44,041 --> 03:25:45,309
>> I believe the property is

5356
03:25:45,309 --> 03:25:47,011
kind of an eyesore. The way it

5357
03:25:47,011 --> 03:25:49,213
is. And it looks like the are

5358
03:25:49,213 --> 03:25:50,948
jumping through hoops to do

5359
03:25:50,948 --> 03:25:51,582
whatever they can to make what

5360
03:25:51,582 --> 03:25:53,684
they’re trying to do. Work.

5361
03:25:53,684 --> 03:25:54,285
And I think we should try to

5362
03:25:54,285 --> 03:25:58,822
work with him do what we can

5363
03:25:58,822 --> 03:26:00,724
to better that community. The

5364
03:26:00,724 --> 03:26:01,325
community there looks kind of

5365
03:26:01,325 --> 03:26:03,294
rough from hurricanes and and

5366
03:26:03,294 --> 03:26:05,262
it looks like they’re going to

5367
03:26:05,262 --> 03:26:07,064
beautify it if they can save

5368
03:26:07,064 --> 03:26:07,598
the tree. That would be a

5369
03:26:07,598 --> 03:26:10,000
great thing if they can’t,

5370
03:26:10,000 --> 03:26:10,968
they’re willing to do lots of

5371
03:26:10,968 --> 03:26:11,735
other things. And I think we

5372
03:26:11,735 --> 03:26:15,606
need to work with them.

5373
03:26:15,606 --> 03:26:16,907
Everyone’s in business to make

5374
03:26:16,907 --> 03:26:17,942
a profit. But it looks like

5375
03:26:17,942 --> 03:26:18,575
they’re trying to do the right

5376
03:26:18,575 --> 03:26:21,312
thing. I would before that.

5377
03:26:21,312 --> 03:26:21,879
>> Thank you for your comes

5378
03:26:21,879 --> 03:26:26,583
next. Speaker. Anyone else?

5379
03:26:26,583 --> 03:26:31,522
Close the public portion and

5380
03:26:31,522 --> 03:26:32,990
you have any rebuttal to what

5381
03:26:32,990 --> 03:26:33,557
and interest will just give

5382
03:26:33,557 --> 03:26:37,428
in.

5383
03:26:37,428 --> 03:26:39,830
>> No, just quickly, thank you

5384
03:26:39,830 --> 03:26:42,833
all for your time. The propose

5385
03:26:42,833 --> 03:26:43,434
concept plan just to clarify

5386
03:26:43,434 --> 03:26:45,135
was for a proposed landscape

5387
03:26:45,135 --> 03:26:46,570
plan to propose 34 new trees.

5388
03:26:46,570 --> 03:26:48,272
That’s what was proposed on

5389
03:26:48,272 --> 03:26:51,408
there. We would certainly work

5390
03:26:51,408 --> 03:26:52,543
with staff to make sure what

5391
03:26:52,543 --> 03:26:53,143
is submitted is appropriate.

5392
03:26:53,143 --> 03:26:55,412
And we’ve heard your comments

5393
03:26:55,412 --> 03:26:56,747
and concerns and would make

5394
03:26:56,747 --> 03:26:57,247
sure to accommodate as

5395
03:26:57,247 --> 03:27:03,921
appropriately. So.

5396
03:27:03,921 --> 03:27:04,488
>> A board and I’m usually

5397
03:27:04,488 --> 03:27:05,055
last being the chair. But

5398
03:27:05,055 --> 03:27:07,691
since it’s my district and I

5399
03:27:07,691 --> 03:27:08,959
don’t know that I’ve ever

5400
03:27:08,959 --> 03:27:12,529
lived closer to anything

5401
03:27:12,529 --> 03:27:14,398
that’s been out there. There’s

5402
03:27:14,398 --> 03:27:15,733
a few things that was said one

5403
03:27:15,733 --> 03:27:16,900
that intersection floods all

5404
03:27:16,900 --> 03:27:17,167
the time.

5405
03:27:17,167 --> 03:27:20,204
>> No, it doesn’t. I have to

5406
03:27:20,204 --> 03:27:21,271
take different ways from my

5407
03:27:21,271 --> 03:27:22,706
house when we have floods. And

5408
03:27:22,706 --> 03:27:26,176
that’s that’s A safe zone.

5409
03:27:26,176 --> 03:27:27,945
It’s a very unique piece of

5410
03:27:27,945 --> 03:27:32,516
property. because it’s piece

5411
03:27:32,516 --> 03:27:34,585
of property surrounded by

5412
03:27:34,585 --> 03:27:36,687
wrote a small piece and then

5413
03:27:36,687 --> 03:27:39,890
the old CBS the same way.

5414
03:27:39,890 --> 03:27:40,491
There’s nothing Bennett that

5415
03:27:40,491 --> 03:27:44,028
property for some time.

5416
03:27:44,028 --> 03:27:46,630
Fortunately, CVS was quick to

5417
03:27:46,630 --> 03:27:49,133
follow the people in my

5418
03:27:49,133 --> 03:27:51,735
district have been chomping at

5419
03:27:51,735 --> 03:27:53,470
the bit to get something at

5420
03:27:53,470 --> 03:27:58,042
that property I mean, you all

5421
03:27:58,042 --> 03:28:00,911
set up here in the people

5422
03:28:00,911 --> 03:28:01,512
watching know I have may be a

5423
03:28:01,512 --> 03:28:02,046
little slower in certain

5424
03:28:02,046 --> 03:28:02,613
developments. Certainly the

5425
03:28:02,613 --> 03:28:04,281
one wanting to preserve

5426
03:28:04,281 --> 03:28:06,283
treason, trying to get

5427
03:28:06,283 --> 03:28:07,451
ordinances and development.

5428
03:28:07,451 --> 03:28:08,218
But I think to keep what

5429
03:28:08,218 --> 03:28:10,154
they’re keeping implant, but

5430
03:28:10,154 --> 03:28:11,989
they’re planting is far of an

5431
03:28:11,989 --> 03:28:14,124
improvement. There’s storm

5432
03:28:14,124 --> 03:28:16,026
water planned there. When I

5433
03:28:16,026 --> 03:28:17,094
hear that, that that’s going

5434
03:28:17,094 --> 03:28:19,797
to be wonderful for the area,

5435
03:28:19,797 --> 03:28:22,833
not about this property. Just

5436
03:28:22,833 --> 03:28:24,068
want to let you know, because

5437
03:28:24,068 --> 03:28:24,668
people were complaining a lot

5438
03:28:24,668 --> 03:28:27,871
from the CBS and being the

5439
03:28:27,871 --> 03:28:30,774
kind person that I am when

5440
03:28:30,774 --> 03:28:31,608
they.

5441
03:28:31,608 --> 03:28:32,576
>> They had a for sale lease

5442
03:28:32,576 --> 03:28:34,778
sign the property management

5443
03:28:34,778 --> 03:28:35,379
person at not this property.

5444
03:28:35,379 --> 03:28:36,914
The one next door had a sign.

5445
03:28:36,914 --> 03:28:39,583
I called in. So if you know

5446
03:28:39,583 --> 03:28:42,286
you’re probably looks

5447
03:28:42,286 --> 03:28:43,053
terrible. This property, at

5448
03:28:43,053 --> 03:28:46,023
least it’s been mowed kept up

5449
03:28:46,023 --> 03:28:46,924
with what can I do to help?

5450
03:28:46,924 --> 03:28:48,992
You’re obviously not from this

5451
03:28:48,992 --> 03:28:50,627
area. We need to keep this

5452
03:28:50,627 --> 03:28:51,128
looking better. All my

5453
03:28:51,128 --> 03:28:53,897
constituents are complaining

5454
03:28:53,897 --> 03:28:54,998
and it was like, wow, no one

5455
03:28:54,998 --> 03:28:56,433
across the state ever calls

5456
03:28:56,433 --> 03:28:56,934
its own eyes. Something

5457
03:28:56,934 --> 03:28:58,802
government looking out for us

5458
03:28:58,802 --> 03:29:02,306
a month later, reach back out.

5459
03:29:02,306 --> 03:29:02,940
And I said, how much more time

5460
03:29:02,940 --> 03:29:03,507
do you need a really in me

5461
03:29:03,507 --> 03:29:06,410
that cleaned up? And then I

5462
03:29:06,410 --> 03:29:08,745
just gotten nastier fall and

5463
03:29:08,745 --> 03:29:09,279
it was nobody wants to be

5464
03:29:09,279 --> 03:29:13,851
there. your boards fault. You

5465
03:29:13,851 --> 03:29:14,718
all won’t allow storage unit

5466
03:29:14,718 --> 03:29:16,787
or a car wash there. And

5467
03:29:16,787 --> 03:29:17,855
that’s all that people want to

5468
03:29:17,855 --> 03:29:19,857
come assess at. What do you

5469
03:29:19,857 --> 03:29:20,324
think you’re getting?

5470
03:29:20,324 --> 03:29:23,093
Certainly it’s not going to be

5471
03:29:23,093 --> 03:29:24,027
a Fleming’s. And I well, no,

5472
03:29:24,027 --> 03:29:24,661
sir, I imagine Fleming’s would

5473
03:29:24,661 --> 03:29:26,697
want to come to that spot him

5474
03:29:26,697 --> 03:29:30,434
SAS a but oddly enough, I

5475
03:29:30,434 --> 03:29:32,569
said, but maybe a Starbucks

5476
03:29:32,569 --> 03:29:34,271
would or or maybe a

5477
03:29:34,271 --> 03:29:34,872
Chick-Fil-A or something that

5478
03:29:34,872 --> 03:29:35,606
the people of Citrus County

5479
03:29:35,606 --> 03:29:40,043
could enjoy. Improvement to

5480
03:29:40,043 --> 03:29:40,711
this property is exciting to

5481
03:29:40,711 --> 03:29:44,414
the people in Homosassa we’ve

5482
03:29:44,414 --> 03:29:45,816
been talking about long before

5483
03:29:45,816 --> 03:29:47,251
it shook out. I think a Dunkin

5484
03:29:47,251 --> 03:29:51,221
Donuts was talked about before

5485
03:29:51,221 --> 03:29:53,123
graffiti is coming into that

5486
03:29:53,123 --> 03:29:54,124
area. Some vagrants are coming

5487
03:29:54,124 --> 03:29:57,561
into that area and when we

5488
03:29:57,561 --> 03:29:59,530
start making that I’ll call it

5489
03:29:59,530 --> 03:30:01,298
the heart of home assassin.

5490
03:30:01,298 --> 03:30:04,168
Nice. And this is a good first

5491
03:30:04,168 --> 03:30:05,169
step. That’s exciting. We we

5492
03:30:05,169 --> 03:30:07,371
can’t leave that part of our

5493
03:30:07,371 --> 03:30:08,338
county. Go to waste in and now

5494
03:30:08,338 --> 03:30:12,276
is the time I know there are

5495
03:30:12,276 --> 03:30:12,843
some complaints about some

5496
03:30:12,843 --> 03:30:16,046
years ago about the 7.11,

5497
03:30:16,046 --> 03:30:17,314
which was allowed, not not

5498
03:30:17,314 --> 03:30:17,915
that this board did anything

5499
03:30:17,915 --> 03:30:21,251
special to allow it. But I’ll

5500
03:30:21,251 --> 03:30:24,121
tell you what it replaced

5501
03:30:24,121 --> 03:30:25,122
helped that quarter immense

5502
03:30:25,122 --> 03:30:26,557
lay. This is the heart of

5503
03:30:26,557 --> 03:30:30,460
Homosassa. And after hearing

5504
03:30:30,460 --> 03:30:31,595
the applicant’s testimony and

5505
03:30:31,595 --> 03:30:33,363
after hearing the county’s

5506
03:30:33,363 --> 03:30:35,232
testimony researching the

5507
03:30:35,232 --> 03:30:36,233
backup material, I’m going to

5508
03:30:36,233 --> 03:30:39,303
be in full favor of this as my

5509
03:30:39,303 --> 03:30:39,870
constituents would want me

5510
03:30:39,870 --> 03:30:43,941
today. Commissioner have a

5511
03:30:43,941 --> 03:30:47,377
question. You said they can’t

5512
03:30:47,377 --> 03:30:52,849
use River Rock. For parking.

5513
03:30:52,849 --> 03:30:53,450
Instead of putting what they

5514
03:30:53,450 --> 03:30:56,053
want to put down.

5515
03:30:56,053 --> 03:30:56,653
>> They were they were going

5516
03:30:56,653 --> 03:30:58,355
to put 14 parking spaces. You

5517
03:30:58,355 --> 03:31:00,657
can’t park on River rock

5518
03:31:00,657 --> 03:31:01,291
because River rock drains very

5519
03:31:01,291 --> 03:31:06,363
nicely. Because in my other

5520
03:31:06,363 --> 03:31:07,197
option, is you’ve got hear

5521
03:31:07,197 --> 03:31:07,831
about they have to figure that

5522
03:31:07,831 --> 03:31:12,202
was with the bicycle parking.

5523
03:31:12,202 --> 03:31:12,769
Why not to get those 14 for

5524
03:31:12,769 --> 03:31:13,403
debt for the bicycle and then

5525
03:31:13,403 --> 03:31:15,038
you could put River rock. It

5526
03:31:15,038 --> 03:31:19,643
would rain very nicely. And I

5527
03:31:19,643 --> 03:31:20,210
got a call at this. What I

5528
03:31:20,210 --> 03:31:20,978
want to find out, right? So

5529
03:31:20,978 --> 03:31:22,613
looking back at the

5530
03:31:22,613 --> 03:31:23,213
engineering staff to interact

5531
03:31:23,213 --> 03:31:23,847
is not one of those items that

5532
03:31:23,847 --> 03:31:27,351
are generally considered.

5533
03:31:27,351 --> 03:31:28,352
>> As in per as per

5534
03:31:28,352 --> 03:31:28,952
impervious, which is you have

5535
03:31:28,952 --> 03:31:30,387
to have paved parking. And

5536
03:31:30,387 --> 03:31:32,389
that generally is not either

5537
03:31:32,389 --> 03:31:34,224
because it doesn’t it doesn’t

5538
03:31:34,224 --> 03:31:35,259
support the parking that

5539
03:31:35,259 --> 03:31:38,462
might. It’s not. I agree is

5540
03:31:38,462 --> 03:31:40,430
pretty. But again, it’s a

5541
03:31:40,430 --> 03:31:41,598
maintenance thing. And so

5542
03:31:41,598 --> 03:31:42,799
that’s not one of the items

5543
03:31:42,799 --> 03:31:43,433
that, you know, I like shows a

5544
03:31:43,433 --> 03:31:46,837
look awesome. But they’re not.

5545
03:31:46,837 --> 03:31:47,838
If they don’t support

5546
03:31:47,838 --> 03:31:49,039
necessarily that the traffic

5547
03:31:49,039 --> 03:31:50,641
that it’s going to need and

5548
03:31:50,641 --> 03:31:51,842
they have to be maintained.

5549
03:31:51,842 --> 03:31:52,643
And that’s been our problem.

5550
03:31:52,643 --> 03:31:54,745
So generally paved parking is

5551
03:31:54,745 --> 03:31:56,480
the alternative. There is

5552
03:31:56,480 --> 03:31:57,114
turn. Those is like a type of

5553
03:31:57,114 --> 03:31:59,082
stone that that can be used

5554
03:31:59,082 --> 03:32:01,952
for parking. But again, it’s

5555
03:32:01,952 --> 03:32:04,021
treated as impervious and not

5556
03:32:04,021 --> 03:32:05,455
previous. So I appreciate your question. I just don’t

5557
03:32:05,455 --> 03:32:06,056
think it helps the situation

5558
03:32:06,056 --> 03:32:08,525
as far as storm water. They’re

5559
03:32:08,525 --> 03:32:12,629
still going to 75%. don’t like

5560
03:32:12,629 --> 03:32:13,730
75%. But I do like the plan

5561
03:32:13,730 --> 03:32:16,566
that they have. They’ve come

5562
03:32:16,566 --> 03:32:18,568
up with for everything else.

5563
03:32:18,568 --> 03:32:22,773
So the thing is. Everything

5564
03:32:22,773 --> 03:32:23,373
else is the way it’s first be

5565
03:32:23,373 --> 03:32:23,874
I guess we should move

5566
03:32:23,874 --> 03:32:28,712
forward. I just think

5567
03:32:28,712 --> 03:32:29,313
clarification on the buffer.

5568
03:32:29,313 --> 03:32:30,814
The 5 foot versus 10 foot. If

5569
03:32:30,814 --> 03:32:33,483
you support that or not. Madam

5570
03:32:33,483 --> 03:32:36,119
Chair, you,

5571
03:32:36,119 --> 03:32:36,720
>> I’d like to make a motion

5572
03:32:36,720 --> 03:32:42,225
that we approve. The dash 2,

5573
03:32:42,225 --> 03:32:45,529
0, 2, 6, Dash, 0, 0, 0, 0, 4,

5574
03:32:45,529 --> 03:32:46,463
>> With the deviations of

5575
03:32:46,463 --> 03:32:50,701
allowing 75%.

5576
03:32:50,701 --> 03:32:51,702
>> ISR.

5577
03:32:51,702 --> 03:32:52,969
>> The 5 foot buffers on the

5578
03:32:52,969 --> 03:32:54,871
south and east side.

5579
03:32:54,871 --> 03:32:57,941
>> Tight be buffers and

5580
03:32:57,941 --> 03:33:00,744
replace the deciduous trees

5581
03:33:00,744 --> 03:33:01,345
that are outlined in the plan

5582
03:33:01,345 --> 03:33:05,415
with Oaks. a 55 parking

5583
03:33:05,415 --> 03:33:11,088
spaces.

5584
03:33:11,088 --> 03:33:12,089
>> I’m fine with what you

5585
03:33:12,089 --> 03:33:12,823
said. But there’s no way you

5586
03:33:12,823 --> 03:33:16,793
can replace if you upscale the

5587
03:33:16,793 --> 03:33:17,394
caliber of the oak tree. You

5588
03:33:17,394 --> 03:33:20,230
can have that may be a hoax.

5589
03:33:20,230 --> 03:33:20,797
Can we change it like they?

5590
03:33:20,797 --> 03:33:21,331
will just work with

5591
03:33:21,331 --> 03:33:28,372
staff. Change. Okay. I have a

5592
03:33:28,372 --> 03:33:28,905

Davis. All those in favor. any

5595
03:33:33,877 --> 03:33:35,545
opposed motion carries 5, 0.

5596
03:33:35,545 --> 03:33:41,852
Congratulations and thank you.

5597

never be able to see the

5598
03:33:45,455 --> 03:33:46,022
