reverse 651 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:02,880 picture reverse 652 00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:06,279 IM Jenny just said it Florida betney 653 00:31:06,279 --> 00:31:09,440 Laura betney okay Laura betney I'll come 654 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:10,159 to 655 00:31:10,159 --> 00:31:14,000 your I've got a I've got a question an 656 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:16,159 was the original proposal for the 657 00:31:16,159 --> 00:31:18,760 Beachside and now this is a Citywide 658 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:21,360 proposal that might be why the 659 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:24,200 commission sort of could be in favor of 660 00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:28,200 it but um it's it you just said City 661 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,880 wide well the the original proposal came 662 00:31:30,880 --> 00:31:32,679 from Beachside neighborhood watch and we 663 00:31:32,679 --> 00:31:34,120 were originally just wanting to 664 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:35,799 encourage it on the beach side correct 665 00:31:35,799 --> 00:31:38,080 but then as we you know and some of the 666 00:31:38,080 --> 00:31:40,120 objections you had raised decided to do 667 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:41,519 the kind of a 668 00:31:41,519 --> 00:31:44,519 clarifying purpose of it that it really 669 00:31:44,519 --> 00:31:46,120 should be something that's addressed 670 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:48,559 Citywide so you know it's it's kind of 671 00:31:48,559 --> 00:31:51,240 like the staff we're just asking them to 672 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:54,600 ask the staff to look at this yeah um I 673 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:59,679 think it makes sense Citywide where it may somewhat sense for the beach side 674 00:31:59,679 --> 00:32:02,320 but uh you either we either do it or we 675 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:06,240 don't correct correct yeah yes it'd be 676 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,960 nice to have some pictures idea what 677 00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,880 this looks like exactly because I tried 678 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:14,679 a little experiment like that on my own 679 00:32:14,679 --> 00:32:16,320 property and in between those pretty 680 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,440 flowers we get lots of weeds M yeah and 681 00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:22,279 weeds are a big problem and you're going 682 00:32:22,279 --> 00:32:24,240 to have to pay a team of people just to 683 00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:25,799 pick the weeds in between those pretty 684 00:32:25,799 --> 00:32:29,159 flowers we can't maintain what we have 685 00:32:29,159 --> 00:32:32,960 now well my entire yard I have zero 686 00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:36,120 grass my entire yard is native plants 687 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:39,240 yeah and when it's dry it Browns out but 688 00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:40,880 then as soon as it rains it comes back 689 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:44,200 and it's gorgeous but I yes I understand 690 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:47,039 your from this the amend the amended or 691 00:32:47,039 --> 00:32:49,840 the additional language that this isn't 692 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:52,799 superseding anything this is in addition 693 00:32:52,799 --> 00:32:53,919 to what we 694 00:32:53,919 --> 00:32:57,200 already allow for landscaping it's it's 695 00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:59,760 asking them to to examine how what they 696 00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:01,799 are allowing you know sometimes they'll 697 00:33:01,799 --> 00:33:04,960 say the list trees or a type of plant 698 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:08,000 that should be planted and they're not 699 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,039 necessarily including natives or not you 700 00:33:10,039 --> 00:33:11,519 know there's there's natives they could 701 00:33:11,519 --> 00:33:15,039 use instead of um so we're just asking 702 00:33:15,039 --> 00:33:16,679 them just want them to look at it we 703 00:33:16,679 --> 00:33:21,480 just want option put there it is is that 704 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:25,720 the bety that's at that's it at all the 705 00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:28,240 construction work that's going on it's 706 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:31,200 just doing beautifully all by itself M 707 00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:32,360 yeah you don't have to do anything to 708 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:35,240 those and you was there a a any mention 709 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:38,360 about the cost of doing a pro a project 710 00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:41,240 like this because if it is Citywide I 711 00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:43,880 could see where I mean I'm not saying 712 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:47,440 that cost is any part of it but it is a 713 00:33:47,440 --> 00:33:49,039 factor 714 00:33:49,039 --> 00:33:54,159 um I could I could answer it's not it's not asking if there's turf 715 00:33:54,159 --> 00:33:56,720 grass out there already it's not saying 716 00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:59,279 rip up the turf grass do something else 717 00:33:59,279 --> 00:34:01,320 it's that if like when they're going to 718 00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:04,360 do the new me they're going to do new A1 719 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:06,080 for allowable uses in future and they're 720 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:09,399 going to do new A1A let's have the city 721 00:34:09,399 --> 00:34:11,000 at make sure that some of those 722 00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:13,879 plantings are not turf grass that there 723 00:34:13,879 --> 00:34:15,480 are other Alternatives that can be 724 00:34:15,480 --> 00:34:18,079 examined yeah okay I could add one thing 725 00:34:18,079 --> 00:34:19,960 just one thing climate appropriate 726 00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:23,359 things right just just one thing I think 727 00:34:23,359 --> 00:34:24,800 it it would cut expenses down 728 00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:30,320 tremendously on gram view I haven't had grass in front that's living you 729 00:34:30,320 --> 00:34:33,240 know anytime so the the natural habitat 730 00:34:33,240 --> 00:34:35,200 is really meant to be there it's grass 731 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:38,320 is just not meant to live I can water it 732 00:34:38,320 --> 00:34:40,280 I can do all these things I just can't 733 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:44,000 get it to live um and then you have uh 734 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:47,000 on East ISB before they did the road 735 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:48,720 construction most of that grass was 736 00:34:48,720 --> 00:34:52,079 dying and didn't look good so maybe this 737 00:34:52,079 --> 00:34:55,280 is a very good uh solution Solution 738 00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:57,320 that's going to be cheaper in the long 739 00:34:57,320 --> 00:34:58,240 run 740 00:34:58,240 --> 00:35:00,240 because after so many years how long 741 00:35:00,240 --> 00:35:02,880 does that Turf gas Last 5 Years out in 742 00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:05,359 the sun maybe before it Withers and then 743 00:35:05,359 --> 00:35:07,400 5 years we're doing it 744 00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:10,079 again and you have to mow it and you 745 00:35:10,079 --> 00:35:13,000 have to spray it so no I'm talking I I 746 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:14,920 was talking the uh artificial grass if 747 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:16,520 they put it in you got to remember that 748 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:18,520 Heat's coming down and you got to think 749 00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:20,720 of this sun you know doing it up north 750 00:35:20,720 --> 00:35:22,400 is one thing doing it here in Florida on 751 00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:23,920 the beach is another it's going to it's 752 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:26,240 going to fade not 753 00:35:26,240 --> 00:35:32,720 sure good thought sorry so so one of the issues that they will have to 754 00:35:32,720 --> 00:35:35,359 Broach is that you have to have an 755 00:35:35,359 --> 00:35:38,320 educated um or 756 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:42,200 re-educated Landscaping team because as 757 00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:44,240 Mr koplos said you know you have these 758 00:35:44,240 --> 00:35:45,640 beautiful little white flowers here and 759 00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:47,640 little yellow flowers here and weeds 760 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:49,839 come up in the middle well if you don't 761 00:35:49,839 --> 00:35:51,760 know what that is that weed could turn 762 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,839 into a beautiful little low growing 763 00:35:54,839 --> 00:36:01,079 flower but if you don't know what it is so you know one of the challenges not 764 00:36:01,079 --> 00:36:03,680 opposed to this at all but um you know 765 00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:05,200 they have to be willing to look at that 766 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:10,240 as well because you can't just send your weed eat guys out to a lawn like 767 00:36:10,240 --> 00:36:11,839 this because I have a lawn like this I 768 00:36:11,839 --> 00:36:14,000 let I let everything grow and if I see 769 00:36:14,000 --> 00:36:16,400 something that is too bushy or 770 00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:19,839 unattractive or has stickers on it I I 771 00:36:19,839 --> 00:36:21,720 pull them out yeah um and I let 772 00:36:21,720 --> 00:36:23,359 everything else grow and and I have lots 773 00:36:23,359 --> 00:36:25,119 of beautiful flowers butterflies bees 774 00:36:25,119 --> 00:36:27,760 and everything um so that's kind of 775 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:30,040 right what we're hoping to go for so 776 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:31,400 might be nice to get a landscape 777 00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:34,200 expert's opinion on yes and a and a like 778 00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:38,000 a landscape expert that is not just into 779 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,280 you know making it look like carpet yeah 780 00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:41,839 I mean you want it to look appealing 781 00:36:41,839 --> 00:36:44,200 because that's yes right but I think but 782 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:45,640 that would be that would be something 783 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:47,720 that we would want to have stff feels 784 00:36:47,720 --> 00:36:49,839 they need to do that then you know but 785 00:36:49,839 --> 00:36:52,920 just let's get this kind of presented to 786 00:36:52,920 --> 00:36:56,960 them as something that we should cuz the commission when we presented our 787 00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:59,200 initial one was all like oh yeah yeah 788 00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:00,720 that sounds good that sounds good and 789 00:37:00,720 --> 00:37:03,440 then po next item of business yeah but 790 00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:05,000 we could do the leg work for them and 791 00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:09,240 have a well we have Jenny 792 00:37:09,240 --> 00:37:12,160 yeah presented first this also yeah well 793 00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:13,800 I was just GNA say the first picture 794 00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:16,599 that I sent down is what just came up by 795 00:37:16,599 --> 00:37:18,319 itself even though they have been 796 00:37:18,319 --> 00:37:20,880 digging up and digging up but this other 797 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:24,720 long one is the Port Orange

johnon 413 North Grand View a um jny 824 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:38,280 first proposed this I thought well it's 825 00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:41,319 a good idea because we are a Beach town 826 00:38:41,319 --> 00:38:43,880 and unfortunately uh we were founded by 827 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:47,040 Yankees so all of our landscape looks 828 00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:49,359 like New England it looks like New 829 00:38:49,359 --> 00:38:51,800 Jersey and we're not New England we're 830 00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:54,599 not New Jersey we're we're Florida hey 831 00:38:54,599 --> 00:38:58,040 I'm still a Yankee I'm a Yankee but you 832 00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:00,800 still when you built your houses the 833 00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:03,319 landscape at the time Helen please let 834 00:39:03,319 --> 00:39:05,440 me finish don't interrupt not doing 835 00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:07,720 anything at the time when they came down 836 00:39:07,720 --> 00:39:10,000 we now continue that Landscaping we have 837 00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:12,359 a lot of the poporum and whatnot that 838 00:39:12,359 --> 00:39:14,280 are from up North they have to be 839 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:18,280 trimmed etc etc uh it takes Staffing all 840 00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,480 right staffing has become extremely 841 00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:22,240 expensive I don't know if you've driven 842 00:39:22,240 --> 00:39:25,520 past McDonald's starting at $17 an hour 843 00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:28,839 California's I think up 20 25 an hour 844 00:39:28,839 --> 00:39:30,960 when you do that it's not only what 845 00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:33,720 you're paying now but when they retire 846 00:39:33,720 --> 00:39:35,119 it's what you pay for the rest of their 847 00:39:35,119 --> 00:39:37,720 lives all right so 40 Years of somebody 848 00:39:37,720 --> 00:39:40,440 sitting on their butt making $20 an hour 849 00:39:40,440 --> 00:39:42,800 is going to be expensive in the future 850 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:45,920 so when you design this uh we had a 851 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:48,400 problem with a18 all right and I've been 852 00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:52,319 to like oakd oakd now had to be redone 853 00:39:52,319 --> 00:39:53,839 because the plants they put in didn't 854 00:39:53,839 --> 00:39:56,400 last uh A1A the plants they put in 855 00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:57,839 didn't last s 856 00:39:57,839 --> 00:40:00,800 times um to the island they put 857 00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:03,440 landscaping around the walkway didn't 858 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:07,160 last um a whena and ISB they put 859 00:40:07,160 --> 00:40:09,319 Landscaping on those two corners except 860 00:40:09,319 --> 00:40:11,359 for the big trees all the Landscaping is 861 00:40:11,359 --> 00:40:15,119 gone all right so when you replace all 862 00:40:15,119 --> 00:40:17,880 of these things if you could put in the 863 00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:21,119 grasses and the natives that don't need 864 00:40:21,119 --> 00:40:22,520 to be watered they don't need to be 865 00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:25,119 cared for like the grasses you cut them 866 00:40:25,119 --> 00:40:28,160 once a year that's it take away the 867 00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:29,480 foliage and it grows back and 868 00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:32,880 everybody's happy so generally there is 869 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:37,119 no um Staffing cost or goes down 870 00:40:37,119 --> 00:40:39,760 drastically watering costs go down 871 00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:41,280 drastically because there is a problem 872 00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:43,760 with water in the future I know Staffing 873 00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:45,160 says oh no there's no problem we got 874 00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:48,200 plenty of water that's what Las Vegas 875 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:50,960 thought there isn't plenty of water so 876 00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,720 I'm asking you to definitely push this 877 00:40:53,720 --> 00:40:55,040 not just for jetting not just for the 878 00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:58,040 beach I need watch but for the C area 879 00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:00,319 because we do want to be unique we want 880 00:41:00,319 --> 00:41:03,240 to be different than Miami we want to be 881 00:41:03,240 --> 00:41:05,440 different than Jacksonville we want to 882 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:08,520 be a Beach town and we're overbuilding 883 00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:10,960 that's true and the more we build the 884 00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:14,160 less we look like a small Beach Town the 885 00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:16,599 only way we can hope to recoup that is 886 00:41:16,599 --> 00:41:18,520 through our landscaping and our design 887 00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:19,440 thank 888 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:22,920 you yeah I agree with you totally and 889 00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:25,839 really what makes the city

00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:23,119 Cypress plants the trees that's a giant 1020 00:47:23,119 --> 00:47:25,640 storm water pump and like oak trees it's 1021 00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:28,680 a giant storm water yeah okay get the 1022 00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:31,359 point um thank you well actually I 1023 00:47:31,359 --> 00:47:34,319 wanted to speak on National Public Radio 1024 00:47:34,319 --> 00:47:37,319 just recently I heard where indigenous 1025 00:47:37,319 --> 00:47:39,920 people used to use a particular kind of 1026 00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:42,240 grass to weave you could actually put 1027 00:47:42,240 --> 00:47:44,319 water in their basket they are now in 1028 00:47:44,319 --> 00:47:47,599 the process of planting along waterways 1029 00:47:47,599 --> 00:47:50,960 that particular uh type of B it's bamboo 1030 00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:54,040 a type of bamboo and grass uh and that 1031 00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:57,800 it they now know does incredible job of 1032 00:47:57,800 --> 00:48:00,839 holding soil protecting against floods 1033 00:48:00,839 --> 00:48:03,680 and things uh so I wish I had listened 1034 00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:05,559 more carefully interesting but they're 1035 00:48:05,559 --> 00:48:08,119 actually planting and you can order 1036 00:48:08,119 --> 00:48:10,599 pieces of it to plant in areas to help 1037 00:48:10,599 --> 00:48:12,960 hold the soil that's very cool yeah good 1038 00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:14,359 to know if you think of it yeah yeah let 1039 00:48:14,359 --> 00:48:17,520 me know and then healthy soil in general 1040 00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:19,520 absorbs storm water better yes so if 1041 00:48:19,520 --> 00:48:22,200 we're not spraying chemicals in the soil 1042 00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:24,000 then the soil food web of all the 1043 00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:26,319 microbes that it holds more storm water 1044 00:48:26,319 --> 00:48:28,520 yeah believe we have another question 1045 00:48:28,520 --> 00:48:31,960 yes well Jenny's been

01:05:07,160 properties at A1A and East 1399 01:05:07,160 --> 01:05:09,760 ISB require lots to be brought up to 1400 01:05:09,760 --> 01:05:12,000 minimum standards or take action and 1401 01:05:12,000 --> 01:05:14,599 place a lean on the property to recoup 1402 01:05:14,599 --> 01:05:15,599 the 1403 01:05:15,599 --> 01:05:19,520 cost REM removing broken down fencing 1404 01:05:19,520 --> 01:05:22,640 and remains from pre-existing structures 1405 01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:25,760 or fixed sea walls and retaining walls 1406 01:05:25,760 --> 01:05:28,559 those are code violations mhm well 1407 01:05:28,559 --> 01:05:31,039 you've got Co three two other places 1408 01:05:31,039 --> 01:05:34,839 where someone asks to maintain to 1409 01:05:34,839 --> 01:05:37,720 establish and maintain code and make 1410 01:05:37,720 --> 01:05:39,520 sure that it's not just written on a 1411 01:05:39,520 --> 01:05:42,599 piece of paper but we have active action 1412 01:05:42,599 --> 01:05:45,079 right maintaining the code so yeah again 1413 01:05:45,079 --> 01:05:48,559 I think you I I think I agree completely 1414 01:05:48,559 --> 01:05:50,119 with reading through the whole thing but 1415 01:05:50,119 --> 01:05:52,880 these if you cut them up and put them in 1416 01:05:52,880 --> 01:05:55,839 piles I think you'd have probably five 1417 01:05:55,839 --> 01:05:59,119 in one four in another three in one and 1418 01:05:59,119 --> 01:06:02,319 maybe two in in another pile because 1419 01:06:02,319 --> 01:06:05,279 they're all dealing with the piles are 1420 01:06:05,279 --> 01:06:08,760 dealing with separate things yeah but 1421 01:06:08,760 --> 01:06:10,680 yeah we not do it tonight but but I do 1422 01:06:10,680 --> 01:06:13,119 want to point out that some of the 1423 01:06:13,119 --> 01:06:15,319 things that are listed here is not a 1424 01:06:15,319 --> 01:06:18,279 requirement today right these are things 1425 01:06:18,279 --> 01:06:20,520 that we're going to have to implement 1426 01:06:20,520 --> 01:06:21,720 you would have to implement the city 1427 01:06:21,720 --> 01:06:23,720 would have to agree to implement code 1428 01:06:23,720 --> 01:06:27,160 yes sir which is a lot of it is is 1429 01:06:27,160 --> 01:06:29,240 excellent you know but you would you 1430 01:06:29,240 --> 01:06:30,960 would have to go through 1431 01:06:30,960 --> 01:06:34,119 the the the code Amendment the planning 1432 01:06:34,119 --> 01:06:36,039 and zoning and Land Development code 1433 01:06:36,039 --> 01:06:38,160 changes I mean I would trust the staff 1434 01:06:38,160 --> 01:06:41,240 to to look at them and and realize that 1435 01:06:41,240 --> 01:06:43,920 there are five nouns that are the same 1436 01:06:43,920 --> 01:06:46,839 in in six of these and those should go 1437 01:06:46,839 --> 01:06:48,960 together because I 1438 01:06:48,960 --> 01:06:52,880 think as my first paragraph in the or 1439 01:06:52,880 --> 01:06:54,480 last paragraph said I'm sure my 1440 01:06:54,480 --> 01:06:56,520 colleagues will have you know many that 1441 01:06:56,520 --> 01:07:00,200 are similar or or or can could be 1442 01:07:00,200 --> 01:07:03,319 construed or solved in in the same way 1443 01:07:03,319 --> 01:07:06,160 and so this is fine but I I I'd feel 1444 01:07:06,160 --> 01:07:08,319 better if we whittel this down into big 1445 01:07:08,319 --> 01:07:10,200 categories that each one had three or 1446 01:07:10,200 --> 01:07:12,520 four of these in it because then it 1447 01:07:12,520 --> 01:07:15,680 makes sense rather than just but we can 1448 01:07:15,680 --> 01:07:18,720 do that we can do that maybe at our 1449 01:07:18,720 --> 01:07:22,000 next okay okay so City responsibilities 1450 01:07:22,000 -->

1595 01:14:11,159 --> 01:14:14,320 illegal parking on the beach side and 1596 01:14:14,320 --> 01:14:16,159 beautification of Main Street and make 1597 01:14:16,159 --> 01:14:19,000 them active businesses all year 1598 01:14:19,000 --> 01:14:21,480 round so those 1599 01:14:21,480 --> 01:14:23,520 are the 1600 01:14:23,520 --> 01:14:26,440 issues um that was given to us prior to 1601 01:14:26,440 --> 01:14:29,199 the meeting but I do Mr chairman want to 1602 01:14:29,199 --> 01:14:32,560 take a few minutes and just ask everyone 1603 01:14:32,560 --> 01:14:34,320 are there other items that we should 1604 01:14:34,320 --> 01:14:38,040 list before you um do your your dot 1605 01:14:38,040 --> 01:14:40,760 system we can add more now if you would 1606 01:14:40,760 --> 01:14:44,320 like too if you if there is a a uh 1607 01:14:44,320 --> 01:14:46,960 request by anyone that something we you 1608 01:14:46,960 --> 01:14:49,679 didn't see that you think is a priority 1609 01:14:49,679 --> 01:14:51,440 uh we can list it now you can write it 1610 01:14:51,440 --> 01:14:53,760 down and um put it on your sheet 1611 01:14:53,760 --> 01:14:56,199 everyone will put it on your sheet and 1612 01:14:56,199 --> 01:14:59,440 um you can use one of your your dots to 1613 01:14:59,440 --> 01:15:01,880 um as a priority issue for you what 1614 01:15:01,880 --> 01:15:04,840 about the um native plants is that 1615 01:15:04,840 --> 01:15:06,239 something that should be on there the 1616 01:15:06,239 --> 01:15:08,120 use of native plants it doesn't have to 1617 01:15:08,120 --> 01:15:09,719 be on there unless you want to make it a 1618 01:15:09,719 --> 01:15:13,440 priority so no no okay it's a different 1619 01:15:13,440 --> 01:15:14,719 I think that the Redevelopment grants 1620 01:15:14,719 --> 01:15:16,199 that we're doing are great but I do 1621 01:15:16,199 --> 01:15:17,880 think it needs to be a priority to make 1622 01:15:17,880 --> 01:15:20,600 them more accessible to everyone in town 1623 01:15:20,600 --> 01:15:22,080 because I have had people come to me 1624 01:15:22,080 --> 01:15:23,880 having trouble finding how to access it 1625 01:15:23,880 --> 01:15:26,199 people that don't know about it for 1626 01:15:26,199 --> 01:15:27,920 instance in here we also have under 1627 01:15:27,920 --> 01:15:29,239 parking working with the county to open 1628 01:15:29,239 --> 01:15:31,440 the Main Street and Harvey beach access 1629 01:15:31,440 --> 01:15:32,800 which I think is a great idea because 1630 01:15:32,800 --> 01:15:34,040 right now we have people at the end of 1631 01:15:34,040 --> 01:15:36,320 ISB no one can get to their business at 1632 01:15:36,320 --> 01:15:39,480 the end of ISB okay and I know they're 1633 01:15:39,480 --> 01:15:40,800 some of them are closing until they're 1634 01:15:40,800 --> 01:15:42,880 done with all the road work I don't know 1635 01:15:42,880 --> 01:15:44,360 that they know about the grants that we 1636 01:15:44,360 --> 01:15:45,719 have or if there's a way that our grants 1637 01:15:45,719 --> 01:15:47,239 could help them with their rent because 1638 01:15:47,239 --> 01:15:49,280 right now I know we have one that's 1639 01:15:49,280 --> 01:15:51,360 going to be closed until January 1640 01:15:51,360 --> 01:15:53,520 February until construction is done and 1641 01:15:53,520 --> 01:15:54,600 we're just going to lose all the 1642 01:15:54,600 --> 01:15:56,239 business over there same thing that 1643 01:15:56,239 --> 01:15:58,239 happened on Orange Avenue I mean what's 1644 01:15:58,239 --> 01:15:59,719 the good in redoing our road and our 1645 01:15:59,719 --> 01:16:02,560 ramp when it reopens there's nothing 1646 01:16:02,560 --> 01:16:06,239 there yeah yeah yeah there there there 1647 01:16:06,239 --> 01:16:08,360 have been some communities in the past 1648 01:16:08,360 --> 01:16:12,000 where you had that that cor correlation 1649 01:16:12,000 --> 01:16:14,239 between the county and the city and the 1650 01:16:14,239 --> 01:16:16,239 CRA working together when they know they 1651 01:16:16,239 --> 01:16:18,719 got a project working like this or if we 1652 01:16:18,719 --> 01:16:21,440 can have something to offer them you 1653 01:16:21,440 --> 01:16:23,520 create a a fund so that you can help 1654 01:16:23,520 --> 01:16:25,480 some of these small businesses through 1655 01:16:25,480 --> 01:16:28,480 that process right I know we have it's 1656 01:16:28,480 --> 01:16:31,239 been done before yeah you know I think 1657 01:16:31,239 --> 01:16:33,679 everything on this list is is 1658 01:16:33,679 --> 01:16:35,920 significant it it I mean I don't think 1659 01:16:35,920 --> 01:16:38,040 there's there are any stinkeroo on here 1660 01:16:38,040 --> 01:16:41,360 the question is are you interested in 1661 01:16:41,360 --> 01:16:43,840 doing a priority list and the priority 1662 01:16:43,840 --> 01:16:46,639 list isn't just the most important ones 1663 01:16:46,639 --> 01:16:48,520 it's that but it's the ones that are 1664 01:16:48,520 --> 01:16:51,639 doable because many of these deal with C 1665 01:16:51,639 --> 01:16:54,199 the county and coordination with the 1666 01:16:54,199 --> 01:16:57,000 property owner and you know some of them 1667 01:16:57,000 --> 01:16:59,840 are pure City ones it could be done 1668 01:16:59,840 --> 01:17:02,679 could start tomorrow because it's all 1669 01:17:02,679 --> 01:17:05,120 under your umbrella of authority right 1670 01:17:05,120 --> 01:17:09,320 so maybe maybe the staff could look at 1671 01:17:09,320 --> 01:17:13,120 um based on the dots uh the priorities 1672 01:17:13,120 --> 01:17:15,080 and if there's a top priority for a 1673 01:17:15,080 --> 01:17:17,480 majority of us that doesn't make it 1674 01:17:17,480 --> 01:17:19,840 because of the dots then I think we 1675 01:17:19,840 --> 01:17:24,480 might want to amend well well well well 1676 01:17:24,480 --> 01:17:26,239 Garett that's why you have the dots 1677 01:17:26,239 --> 01:17:32,000 because it's we we want this to be the Advisory board's priorities and not 1678 01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:33,080 staff 1679 01:17:33,080 --> 01:17:36,360 priorities yeah yeah put a priority on 1680 01:17:36,360 --> 01:17:41,199 your dot yeah you you you you need to utilize your dots we gonna 1681 01:17:41,199 --> 01:17:43,080 go to Garrett then we're gonna go over 1682 01:17:43,080 --> 01:17:45,760 here gar gar was go 1683 01:17:45,760 --> 01:17:48,600 ahead just out of curiosity the funding 1684 01:17:48,600 --> 01:17:51,920 for the program comes from the CRA yes 1685 01:17:51,920 --> 01:17:55,320 sir right how much money is in there 1686 01:17:55,320 --> 01:17:57,280 right now we got a quarter of a million 1687 01:17:57,280 --> 01:18:03,520 or is it half a million a half a million and once that's used up what 1688 01:18:03,520 --> 01:18:05,440 happens after that yeah we we 1689 01:18:05,440 --> 01:18:08,480 appropriate more 1690 01:18:08,480 --> 01:18:13,679 next the c c yes sunshines soon is no no 1691 01:18:13,679 --> 01:18:20,480 we sunshin in 36 3 yeah but we we had to start somewhere no no and we 1692 01:18:20,480 --> 01:18:23,000 started at a half a million we hope we 1693 01:18:23,000 --> 01:18:25,920 get to a million in in the year yeah but 1694 01:18:25,920 --> 01:18:28,520 let me also say this if we spend a half 1695 01:18:28,520 --> 01:18:31,719 a million before December we'll go back 1696 01:18:31,719 --> 01:18:34,239 to commission yeah and ask for more and 1697 01:18:34,239 --> 01:18:36,080 you'll get it and we'll get it the 1698 01:18:36,080 --> 01:18:37,960 reason because we do have more to make 1699 01:18:37,960 --> 01:18:39,960 sure that this is ongoing because yeah 1700 01:18:39,960 --> 01:18:41,920 but we didn't want to stick a yeah yeah 1701 01:18:41,920 --> 01:18:44,199 arbitrary number out there I think 1702 01:18:44,199 --> 01:18:46,880 before you came on board the beach R 1703 01:18:46,880 --> 01:18:50,159 development they did a study 10 12 years 1704 01:18:50,159 --> 01:18:52,440 ago yes we did about the exact same 1705 01:18:52,440 --> 01:18:55,120 thing and then they looked at you know 1706 01:18:55,120 --> 01:18:57,159 sometimes I think we get a 1707 01:18:57,159 --> 01:19:01,199 little too com too confused and too 1708 01:19:01,199 --> 01:19:02,840 overworked up on stuff and we try to 1709 01:19:02,840 --> 01:19:06,280 reinvent stuff okay you know um but all 1710 01:19:06,280 --> 01:19:07,800 we have to do is really look at what 1711 01:19:07,800 --> 01:19:09,800 other more successful cities are doing 1712 01:19:09,800 --> 01:19:12,120 right in Hollywood Hollywood I think 1713 01:19:12,120 --> 01:19:13,760 Hollywood was one of the more successful 1714 01:19:13,760 --> 01:19:15,880 ones and they've got an ongoing program 1715 01:19:15,880 --> 01:19:17,360 like this that has been going on for a 1716 01:19:17,360 --> 01:19:19,920 very long time and they contribute quite 1717 01:19:19,920 --> 01:19:22,520 a bit to businesses that are I better 1718 01:19:22,520 --> 01:19:25,560 use of Redevelopment dollars than 1719 01:19:25,560 --> 01:19:27,320 business yeah you guys are doing a great 1720 01:19:27,320 --> 01:19:29,639 job well Helen and Veron okay I was at 1721 01:19:29,639 --> 01:19:31,719 the city commission the other night when 1722 01:19:31,719 --> 01:19:33,960 uh this was brought up by the the mayor 1723 01:19:33,960 --> 01:19:36,840 and the the Commissioners you have to 1724 01:19:36,840 --> 01:19:38,560 understand one thing with the CRA they 1725 01:19:38,560 --> 01:19:39,760 have 1726 01:19:39,760 --> 01:19:42,840 obligations that are ongoing all the 1727 01:19:42,840 --> 01:19:47,960 time yeah uh we are a city with five 1728 01:19:47,960 --> 01:19:50,719 C which is unheard of for a city of this 1729 01:19:50,719 --> 01:19:53,600 size but that's neither here to there 1730 01:19:53,600 --> 01:19:56,320 and some of them are getting ready 1731 01:19:56,320 --> 01:19:59,760 to be out and once they're out you can't 1732 01:19:59,760 --> 01:20:03,400 reestablish them very difficult so I 1733 01:20:03,400 --> 01:20:07,159 think it uh what you've presented 1734 01:20:07,159 --> 01:20:09,840 tonight are the main things that the 1735 01:20:09,840 --> 01:20:12,000 commission asked you 1736 01:20:12,000 --> 01:20:16,280 to to put in I think you've done an 1737 01:20:16,280 --> 01:20:19,760 excellent excellent job myself I 1738 01:20:19,760 --> 01:20:23,080 prioritize my dots okay and when I run 1739 01:20:23,080 --> 01:20:26,000 out of dots I put double stars on them 1740 01:20:26,000 --> 01:20:32,040 okay good good good but I I think it uh this is 1741 01:20:32,040 --> 01:20:34,320 help think this would be something that 1742 01:20:34,320 --> 01:20:36,480 you could put together and prevent you 1743 01:20:36,480 --> 01:20:39,000 know and bring it before the commission 1744 01:20:39,000 --> 01:20:41,560 and maybe get some attention to some of 1745 01:20:41,560 --> 01:20:44,239 these items absolutely that's that's the 1746 01:20:44,239 --> 01:20:46,719 intent although some of these items may 1747 01:20:46,719 --> 01:20:49,880 be like I say redundant someone else may 1748 01:20:49,880 --> 01:20:52,679 have have listed them um but we're going 1749 01:20:52,679 --> 01:20:55,560 to show you where they 1750 01:20:55,560 --> 01:20:58,320 correlate but I also want this to be an 1751 01:20:58,320 --> 01:21:00,800 exercise where you can see where like 1752 01:21:00,800 --> 01:21:03,280 Minds may have some of the same 1753 01:21:03,280 --> 01:21:06,199 priorities um but there will be cases 1754 01:21:06,199 --> 01:21:10,719 where your priorities may not be a goal 1755 01:21:10,719 --> 01:21:13,840 of the CRA but it doesn't mean correct 1756 01:21:13,840 --> 01:21:16,880 that somewhere in the city it should be 1757 01:21:16,880 --> 01:21:19,280 taken care of correct so somewhere in 1758 01:21:19,280 --> 01:21:21,320 the city everything that you basically 1759 01:21:21,320 --> 01:21:23,840 listed some Department in the city is 1760 01:21:23,840 --> 01:21:26,159 responsible yeah I can tell you that 1761 01:21:26,159 --> 01:21:28,560 work somebody is going to take care of 1762 01:21:28,560 --> 01:21:31,480 it yes thank you yeah so miss Helen and 1763 01:21:31,480 --> 01:21:34,960 Amy well he said what I felt and I just 1764 01:21:34,960 --> 01:21:40,000 want to say this is tremendously

Ellis was talking about um the businesses on ISB slight diversion 1768 01:21:55,080 --> 01:21:57,520 but it it could it really this is this 1769 01:21:57,520 --> 01:22:00,760 is tying in how many businesses are 1770 01:22:00,760 --> 01:22:03,120 there that I'm aware of right now that 1771 01:22:03,120 --> 01:22:09,639 are affected I think it's around five businesses if we had 1772 01:22:09,639

01:23:45,320 --> 01:23:48,239 would be a uh that would be Public Works 1809 01:23:48,239 --> 01:23:50,159 we would lean on Public Works to make 1810 01:23:50,159 --> 01:23:52,600 that connection yeah

time 1819 01:24:12,639 --> 01:24:14,040 even when it's not in my neighborhood 1820 01:24:14,040 --> 01:24:15,679 and I'm like hey can you guys fix this 1821 01:24:15,679 --> 01:24:18,000 light it's

01:24:25,080 has to go to the FBI 1825 01:24:25,080 --> 01:24:27,360 to have them remedy situations like that 1826 01:24:27,360 --> 01:24:31,080 I counted 30 lights between seab breze 1827

01:24:44,520 he's like if you want to get the ball 1833 01:24:44,520 --> 01:24:47,040 rolling there's a particular safety 1834 01:24:47,040 --> 01:24:48,920 standard that they have to abide corre 1835 01:24:48,920 --> 01:24:51,280 and they have to speed it up you know 1836 01:24:51,280 --> 01:24:53,360 when it becomes a safety issue I'm like 1837 01:24:53,360 --> 01:24:54,800 it's very dark I mean it's kind of a 1838 01:24:54,800 --> 01:24:56,840 little inundating for a tourist to 1839 01:24:56,840 --> 01:24:58,440 actually try to walk on the other side 1840 01:24:58,440 --> 01:25:00,840 of the street there so that's definitely 1841 01:25:00,840 --> 01:25:02,440 but that's how you get it done I mean we 1842 01:25:02,440 --> 01:25:05,040 tell people take pictures of the pole 1843 01:25:05,040 --> 01:25:07,679 that has the number on it oh okay you 1844 01:25:07,679 --> 01:25:09,480 know that's that's how you do take a 1845 01:25:09,480 --> 01:25:11,360 picture of that pole that has the number 1846 01:25:11,360 --> 01:25:14,880 on it I I I have one thing on South 1847 01:25:14,880 --> 01:25:17,560 Peninsula as you turn to go on the 1848 01:25:17,560 --> 01:25:21,199 Orange Avenue Bridge M there is a pole 1849 01:25:21,199 --> 01:25:23,320 in the middle of the sidewalk and there 1850 01:25:23,320 --> 01:25:25,600 is no way there there's a man that walks 1851 01:25:25,600 -->

1854 01:25:35,679 --> 01:25:38,159 sidewalk the pole is right in the middle 1855 01:25:38,159 --> 01:25:39,639 there's no way is that the intersection 1856 01:25:39,639 --> 01:25:41,960 so he has to

01:25:49,080 a I was walking my dog under a pole that 1860 01:25:49,080 --> 01:25:50,400 I've been watch you know it's already a 1861 01:25:50,400 --> 01:25:52,440 poll I've complained about but a cable 1862 01:25:52,440 --> 01:25:54,840 box literally fell 1863 01:25:54,840 --> 01:25:57,600 off the pole and came down I thought it 1864 01:25:57,600 --> 01:25:59,560 was a Transformer coming down I'm look 1865 01:25:59,560 --> 01:26:01,560 up and this huge thing's coming down and 1866 01:26:01,560 --> 01:26:04,000 it stopped about 5T above head because 1867 01:26:04,000 --> 01:26:06,280 the cable kept the cable was still on 1868 01:26:06,280 --> 01:26:08,679 there and it swinging away I got a video 1869 01:26:08,679 --> 01:26:11,119 of it swinging and it like scared the 1870 01:26:11,119 --> 01:26:12,840 hell out of me right so I called on 1871 01:26:12,840 --> 01:26:15,320 emergency somebody came and tucked it up 1872 01:26:15,320 --> 01:26:21,199 back in there but it's still there yeah so this is yeah okay we're like 1873 01:26:21,199 --> 01:26:27,109 entering third world situation here yeah 1874 01:26:27,119 --> 01:26:28,920 oh and then there was one other thing 1875 01:26:28,920 --> 01:26:30,239 one of you asked for other things this 1876 01:26:30,239 --> 01:26:32,159 was an idea some of us were were talking 1877 01:26:32,159 --> 01:26:34,360 about the other day what would how would 1878 01:26:34,360 --> 01:26:37,520 it be if people wanted to paint a house 1879 01:26:37,520 --> 01:26:39,679 or a building M even if they wanted to 1880 01:26:39,679 --> 01:26:41,800 do it themselves with a you know without 1881 01:26:41,800 --> 01:26:43,520 a contractor because painting is not 1882 01:26:43,520 --> 01:26:45,600 something that necessarily requires 1883 01:26:45,600 --> 01:26:47,480 skilled labor and they had they apply 1884 01:26:47,480 --> 01:26:51,320 for a uh paint 1885 01:26:51,320 --> 01:26:53,679 reimbursement and they paint their house 1886 01:26:53,679 --> 01:26:55,520 and then they say say okay here come out 1887 01:26:55,520 --> 01:26:57,800 code whoever look at the house how do 1888 01:26:57,800 --> 01:27:01,119 you like it looks good I spent $500 on 1889 01:27:01,119 --> 01:27:04,000 two giant five gallon buckets of paint 1890 01:27:04,000 --> 01:27:05,719 and we can reimburse them is there 1891 01:27:05,719 --> 01:27:08,040 something simple we can do like that we 1892 01:27:08,040 --> 01:27:10,280 don't have a paint reimbursement program 1893 01:27:10,280 --> 01:27:11,920 but we have a paint program where you 1894 01:27:11,920 --> 01:27:13,880 have to get if you're in a Redevelopment 1895 01:27:13,880 --> 01:27:16,320 area you have to get approval from us to 1896 01:27:16,320 --> 01:27:19,639 paint the the paint colors color right 1897 01:27:19,639 --> 01:27:22,440 um that's a little different and the the 1898 01:27:22,440 --> 01:27:25,840 only gr requires the only thing is um 1899 01:27:25,840 --> 01:27:27,760 about that you you have to create some 1900 01:27:27,760 --> 01:27:31,239 criteria right um for you know a paint 1901 01:27:31,239 --> 01:27:33,199 program code 1902 01:27:33,199 --> 01:27:35,320 enforcement um one of the things that 1903 01:27:35,320 --> 01:27:38,719 they want to do is if they found someone 1904 01:27:38,719 --> 01:27:41,320 who you know has some code violations 1905 01:27:41,320 --> 01:27:43,679 such as chip paint or something that's 1906 01:27:43,679 --> 01:27:45,320 happened to the exterior of the building 1907 01:27:45,320 --> 01:27:46,800 as opposed to taking them to code 1908 01:27:46,800 --> 01:27:48,560 enforcement they want to have the 1909 01:27:48,560 --> 01:27:50,080 ability where they can utilize some of 1910 01:27:50,080 --> 01:27:52,560 our CRA funds to do something similar to 1911 01:27:52,560 --> 01:27:54,800 what you're talking about Home Dep yeah 1912 01:27:54,800 --> 01:27:57,520 but it's not for it's not for everybody 1913 01:27:57,520 --> 01:28:00,080 it is if you have a violation a 1914 01:28:00,080 --> 01:28:02,000 potential violation that has been 1915 01:28:02,000 --> 01:28:05,080 identified by your code officer you will 1916 01:28:05,080 --> 01:28:07,840 have some type of voucher that you can 1917 01:28:07,840 --> 01:28:10,679 go to one of the hardware stores and buy 1918 01:28:10,679 --> 01:28:12,840 paint

--> 01:28:21,800 are ideas that you know if if if there's 1922 01:28:21,800 --> 01:28:24,520 a priority it could be implemented but 1923 01:28:24,520 --> 01:28:26,679 of course you got to create the program 1924 01:28:26,679 --> 01:28:29,400 right you know with code enforcement 1925 01:28:29,400 --> 01:28:32,679 they have a it's a code if you have 1926 01:28:32,679 --> 01:28:36,600 peeling paint

01:30:57,400 --> 01:30:59,920 which is seab breze University that they 1980 01:30:59,920 --> 01:31:01,880 were just going to let people paint 1981 01:31:01,880 --> 01:31:03,960 their houses any color they want because 1982 01:31:03,960 --> 01:31:06,800 they didn't feel that the city should be 1983 01:31:06,800 --> 01:31:09,560 asking them to repaint the house 1984 01:31:09,560 --> 01:31:11,800 according to the standards standards as 1985 01:31:11,800 --> 01:31:13,560 a matter of fact Miss hansy was at the 1986 01:31:13,560 --> 01:31:16,000 historic preservation Advisory board 1987 01:31:16,000 --> 01:31:17,840 meeting when they didn't even know they 1988 01:31:17,840 --> 01:31:20,600 were standards the board was making 1989 01:31:20,600 --> 01:31:24,719 decisions on items in the in this Z Zone 1990 01:31:24,719 --> 01:31:28,000 without realizing the city had a a book 1991 01:31:28,000 --> 01:31:30,840 a guide book to do it so I think maybe 1992 01:31:30,840 --> 01:31:33,480 City coordination would be good too one 1993 01:31:33,480 --> 01:31:36,040 of the things I said in here was that 1994 01:31:36,040 --> 01:31:38,760 are that being proactive but also with 1995 01:31:38,760 --> 01:31:41,159 other departments in the city to really 1996 01:31:41,159 --> 01:31:45,639 make it work for everybody yeah yeah 1997 01:31:45,639 --> 01:31:49,320 okay all right

01:31:55,880 greatly appreciate mhm the STA a lot of 2001 01:31:55,880 --> 01:31:58,840 work and the the most important thing 2002 01:31:58,840 --> 01:32:02,560 that I'm on there I'm on here now uh the 2003 01:32:02,560 --> 01:32:05,199 most important thing that I really think 2004 01:32:05,199 --> 01:32:07,920 on this thing is the staff playing a 2005 01:32:07,920 --> 01:32:11,520 productive role proactive role right uh 2006 01:32:11,520 --> 01:32:14,040 with divisions within the city to remedy 2007 01:32:14,040 --> 01:32:17,159 obvious problems the thing is is that 2008 01:32:17,159 --> 01:32:18,760 not because you all are in front of me 2009 01:32:18,760 --> 01:32:21,920 right now I've lived here for a long 2010 01:32:21,920 --> 01:32:25,520 time and and and you the staff deserves 2011 01:32:25,520 --> 01:32:27,440 the credit I believe probably in the 2012 01:32:27,440 --> 01:32:30,080 past 20 plus years this the best staff 2013 01:32:30,080 --> 01:32:33,719 we've had in the

01:32:42,760 that's the most important uh the illegal 2017 01:32:42,760 --> 01:32:45,320 parking on Grand View I think 2018 01:32:45,320 --> 01:32:48,719 immediately when I had said something um 2019 01:32:48,719 --> 01:32:50,679 started giving tickets so at least 2020 01:32:50,679 --> 01:32:51,960 people could get out of I could get out 2021 01:32:51,960 --> 01:32:54,600 of my driveway um 2022 01:32:54,600 --> 01:32:58,159 so I I I really feel happy I think this 2023 01:32:58,159 --> 01:32:59,440 is the best of the city's been since 2024 01:32:59,440 --> 01:33:03,320 I've lived here over

those items that are not 2034 01:33:30,560 --> 01:33:34,119 directly um involved in the 2035 01:33:34,119 --> 01:33:36,480 Redevelopment plan itself because 2036 01:33:36,480 --> 01:33:39,159 everything that we do has to be part of 2037 01:33:39,159 --> 01:33:41,080 the Redevelopment plan and really 2038 01:33:41,080 --> 01:33:44,480 there's like five goals um that you have 2039 01:33:44,480 --> 01:33:49,040 to take all this information and and and 2040 01:33:49,040 --> 01:33:51,920 um correlated to what the Redevelopment 2041 01:33:51,920 --> 01:33:54,320 plan says now 2042 01:33:54,320 --> 01:33:56,639 but what we're going to do is the ones 2043 01:33:56,639 --> 01:33:59,639 that don't correlate to the goals of the 2044 01:33:59,639 --> 01:34:01,800 Redevelopment plan we're going to create 2045 01:34:01,800 --> 01:34:04,280 a strategy where we're going to connect 2046 01:34:04,280 --> 01:34:06,360 them to a particular department or 2047 01:34:06,360 --> 01:34:09,679 entity correct so that what you've given 2048 01:34:09,679 --> 01:34:13,080 us is not just in vain corre it will go 2049 01:34:13,080 --> 01:34:16,360 somewhere it will be attached to some 2050 01:34:16,360 --> 01:34:19,840 entity some department and and 2051 01:34:19,840 --> 01:34:23,560 throughout our course of um activities 2052 01:34:23,560 --> 01:34:24,280 um 2053 01:34:24,280 --> 01:34:26,639 we'll we'll have updates from from those 2054 01:34:26,639 --> 01:34:28,880 particular departments because there's a 2055 01:34:28,880 --> 01:34:31,440 priority of um the Beachside 2056 01:34:31,440 --> 01:34:34,080 Redevelopment board maybe it's not in 2057 01:34:34,080 --> 01:34:35,679 the Redevelopment plan maybe it's not a 2058 01:34:35,679 --> 01:34:37,520 goal of the Redevelopment plan but it's 2059 01:34:37,520 --> 01:34:39,239 a goal of the Redevelopment advisor 2060 01:34:39,239 --> 01:34:41,480 board so that we have a better quality 2061 01:34:41,480 --> 01:34:43,600 of life and so that's what we understand 2062 01:34:43,600 --> 01:34:45,760 with this list the list is really about 2063 01:34:45,760 --> 01:34:48,280 quality of life and it may not be in the 2064 01:34:48,280 --> 01:34:50,239 Redevelopment plan but it may be 2065 01:34:50,239 --> 01:34:52,920 somewhere that departments in the city 2066 01:34:52,920 --> 01:34:54,520 need to be respons

with that is Flor power light owns the 2211 01:42:11,119 --> 01:42:14,199 poles but they don't own the wires and 2212 01:42:14,199 --> 01:42:17,480 unless AT&T moves their wires that pole 2213 01:42:17,480 --> 01:42:19,480 will stay up there indefinitely 2214 01:42:19,480 --> 01:42:22,520 Tallahassee ruled several years ago that 2215 01:42:22,520 --> 01:42:24,360 we now know longer have

--> 01:43:11,920 in they didn't want tip funds they were 2233 01:43:11,920 --> 01:43:14,639 going to do it on their own well you saw 2234 01:43:14,639 --> 01:43:17,040 the price of everything go up and then 2235 01:43:17,040 --> 01:43:19,599 the city wanted 40t of their property 2236 01:43:19,599 --> 01:43:22,320 for free and then they wanted the city 2237 01:43:22,320 --> 01:43:25,080 wanted

funds 3 million bucks 2241 01:43:31,360 --> 01:43:35,760 the city said okay after a haggling then 2242 01:43:35,760 --> 01:43:37,360 they said the price of everything went 2243 01:43:37,360 --> 01:43:38,760 through the roof if you remember several 2244 01:43:38,760 --> 01:43:40,920 years ago you just couldn't keep up with 2245 01:43:40,920 --> 01:43:43,159 everything was going through the roof 2246 01:43:43,159 --> 01:43:45,280 they went up to 8 million the city said 2247 01:43:45,280 --> 01:43:48,119 yes they went to sign the documents and 2248 01:43:48,119 --> 01:43:49,480 the city said 2249 01:43:49,480 --> 01:43:51,880 no we said yes to the 8 million but 2250 01:43:51,880 --> 01:43:53,400 we're taking it back we're only give you 2251 01:43:53,400 --> 01:43:56,000 3 million so the two hotels by the 2252 01:43:56,000 --> 01:43:59,119 boardwalk were cancelled which then the 2253 01:43:59,119 --> 01:44:01,679 guy at the end from uguay canceled his 2254 01:44:01,679 --> 01:44:04,040 building so we are shooting ourselves in 2255 01:44:04,040 --> 01:44:08,520 the foot all the time we've stopped nine 2256 01:44:08,520 --> 01:44:12,000 buildings in RC we almost stopped

with regard to uh city 2260 01:44:21,400 --> 01:44:23,400 property and County property we have 2261 01:44:23,400 --> 01:44:26,520 control over it and almost all of our 2262 01:44:26,520 --> 01:44:29,760 city and county property is not in the 2263 01:44:29,760 --> 01:44:32,280 best standard it really isn't all right 2264 01:44:32,280 --> 01:44:36,080 you go to um sebr Park SNB you go to

own so I'm asking you to 2276 01:45:03,239 --> 01:45:06,440 put in this as a high priority all city 2277 01:45:06,440 --> 01:45:09,639 and county property in the CRA because 2278 01:45:09,639 -->

01:45:34,599 --> 01:45:38,199 1950s it really is bad so I'm asking you 2290 01:45:38,199 --> 01:45:41,480 to not just us but all of our property 2291 01:45:41,480 --> 01:45:43,280 and all of the

01:45:50,159 three or four of the bathrooms to 2295 01:45:50,159 --> 01:45:52,440 replace them I don't ask them to tear it 2296 01:45:52,440 --> 01:45:55,159 down just gut it and make it modern it 2297 01:45:55,159 --> 01:45:59,800 is really the pits and lastly um you 2298 01:45:59,800 --> 01:46:01,840 have hidden money I know they don't call 2299 01:46:01,840 --> 01:46:05,000 it that way and Paulo Reed Goes Bananas 2300 01:46:05,000 --> 01:46:07,599 whatever I say it but there's been money 2301 01:46:07,599 --> 01:46:10,840 in your facility for years that we don't 2302 01:46:10,840 --> 01:46:14,560 know about M uh was it Midtown CRA when 2303 01:46:14,560 --> 01:46:17,159 they wanted to redo Orange Avenue Chism 2304 01:46:17,159 --> 01:46:18,199 says oh yeah we're going to take that 2305 01:46:18,199 --> 01:46:20,480 million dollars that you have in your 2306 01:46:20,480 --> 01:46:23,440 CRA towards redoing Orange Avenue and 2307 01:46:23,440 --> 01:46:27,320 they go what

01:46:33,960 but they never told you what it is so 2311 01:46:33,960 --> 01:46:35,800 it's hard for you to balance things if 2312 01:46:35,800 --> 01:46:37,560 you don't know what it is now from what 2313 01:46:37,560 --> 01:46:40,960 I understand you got $6 2314 01:46:40,960 --> 01:46:45,520 million in funding from TI uh from 2315 01:46:45,520 --> 01:46:51,119 um the SI you owe 2.4 million if I

gives you approximately 2319 01:46:57,480 --> 01:46:58,679 $4 2320 01:46:58,679 --> 01:47:01,920 million that's not Chum change you owe 2321 01:47:01,920 --> 01:47:04,040 probably about a million 2322 01:47:04,040 --> 01:47:06,520 dollars it's kind of a dishonest way to 2323 01:47:06,520 --> 01:47:09,320 jib Chism change things around so that 2324 01:47:09,320 --> 01:47:11,400 you paid for things you shouldn't have 2325 01:47:11,400 --> 01:47:13,440 so you have $3 2326 01:47:13,440 --> 01:47:16,639 million that you can encourage can't 2327 01:47:16,639 --> 01:47:19,199 tell them you can

01:48:08,599 want us to add in environmentally 2345 01:48:08,599 --> 01:48:12,400 responsible lighting which helps direct 2346 01:48:12,400 --> 01:48:14,639 the light downward so it does a better 2347 01:48:14,639 --> 01:48:17,800 job of of what its job is of safety and 2348 01:48:17,800 --> 01:48:20,000 Illuminating the road but then it also 2349 01:48:20,000 --> 01:48:22,280 guards against light

right direction seeing 2498 01:54:09,520 --> 01:54:11,159 what I can like I said I was on this 2499 01:54:11,159 --> 01:54:12,760 board and we used to have a portal that 2500 01:54:12,760 --> 01:54:14,320 you can go to that was a part of the 2501 01:54:14,320 --> 01:54:15,960 website where you can see the grants and 2502 01:54:15,960 --> 01:54:17,400 loes that are available I had it 2503 01:54:17,400 --> 01:54:19,520 bookmarked I went to it and it is gone 2504 01:54:19,520 --> 01:54:21,639 so like I said the only reason why I 2505 01:54:21,639 --> 01:54:23,719 knew about this is one of another Main 2506 01:54:23,719 --> 01:54:25,960 Street Merchant showed me a pamphlet 2507 01:54:25,960 --> 01:54:27,440 which my picture of my building was on 2508 01:54:27,440 --> 01:54:31,119 out

about it so if it 2511 01:54:34,360 --> 01:54:35,679 wasn't for this other Merchant I would 2512 01:54:35,679 --> 01:54:37,520 have I would have not have known about 2513 01:54:37,520 --> 01:54:40,199 it at all whatsoever right so like I 2514 01:54:40,199 --> 01:54:42,480 said is there any step that you guys can 2515 01:54:42,480 --> 01:54:44,360 could advise me I like I said I did not 2516

said I'm I'm going 2519 01:54:53,079 --> 01:54:54,719 to debacle and anything you guys can 2520 01:54:54,719 --> 01:54:59,199 advise me please I I'm I'm I'm I'm 2521 01:54:59,199 --> 01:55:03,639

a lot more of my 2584 01:57:24,960 --> 01:57:26,760 parking lot uh which was always an issue 2585 01:57:26,760 --> 01:57:30,280 but like I said uh with the F uh the EPA 2586 01:57:30,280 --> 01:57:31,880 down there in the state they they have 2587 01:57:31,880 --> 01:57:34,400 ground Wells of like every 5T on that 2588 01:57:34,400 --> 01:57:36,760 property and I cannot touch it I can't

estimate I got 2592 01:57:43,440 --> 01:57:49,079 is about 42,000 and that was just on the violations that's not even that is 2593 01:57:49,079 --> 01:57:50,960 not even the concrete right now the 2594 01:57:50,960 --> 01:57:52,400 concrete is something that I'm were 2595 01:57:52,400 --> 01:57:55,119 going across the state uh what little 2596 01:57:55,119 --> 01:57:58,679 two holes that were drawn out uh from 2597 01:57:58,679 --> 01:58:01,400 the gas tanks had a little bit of T 2598 01:58:01,400 --> 01:58:03,760 asphalt millings and dirt on top and now 2599 01:58:03,760 --> 01:58:05,159 that the construction Crews come through 2600 01:58:05,159 --> 01:58:07,159 they have parked gigantic excavators and 2601 01:58:07,159 --> 01:58:09,079 it destroyed what was a little over that 2602 01:58:09,079 --> 01:58:11,119 parking lot so that's another project 2603 01:58:11,119 --> 01:58:13,079 that my lawyer is talking to about the 2604 01:58:13,079 --> 01:58:14,480 uh the contractors to see if they can 2605 01:58:14,480 --> 01:58:16,159 remedy the the destruction they've done 2606 01:58:16,159 --> 01:58:18,040 in my parking 2607 01:58:18,040 --> 01:58:24,639 lot yeah it's time yeah I think we'll keep an eye on this we'll come 2608 01:58:24,639 --> 01:58:26,280 back to it if there's anything we can do 2609 01:58:26,280 --> 01:58:27,960 to urge them to look at this I would 2610 01:58:27,960 --> 01:58:29,560 hate for us to lose another business on 2611 01:58:29,560 --> 01:58:32,310 our beach 2612 01:58:32,320 --> 01:58:35,000 side yeah thank you guys I appreciate 2613 01:58:35,000 --> 01:58:37,229 thank 2614 01:58:37,239 --> 01:58:40,199 you see right else do we have here an 2615 01:58:40,199 --> 01:58:44,470 Ruby come on 2616 01:58:44,480 --> 01:58:48,280 up Ann Ruby 137 Park Avenue so what you 2617 01:58:48,280 --> 01:58:50,480 guys did here tonight setting priorities 2618 01:58:50,480 --> 01:58:54,840 uh is great and the city Commission in 2619 01:58:54,840 --> 01:58:58,520 their last CRA meeting decided that they 2620 01:58:58,520 --> 01:59:00,480 would have a have maybe I don't know if 2621 01:59:00,480 --> 01:59:03,280 they decided quarterly or semiannually 2622 01:59:03,280 --> 01:59:05,320 that they were going to have regular CRA 2623 01:59:05,320 --> 01:59:08,400 meetings where they discussed things 2624 01:59:08,400 --> 01:59:12,960 that weren't because usually they just rubber stamp something 2625 01:59:12,960 --> 01:59:15,800 move on and there's really no discussion 2626 01:59:15,800 --> 01:59:18,199 and that's not how a CRA is going to 2627 01:59:18,199 --> 01:59:20,239 board is should be functioning that's my 2628 01:59:20,239 --> 01:59:22,320 opinion so they did agree to start 2629 01:59:22,320 --> 01:59:25,119 having I think quarterly meetings that 2630 01:59:25,119 --> 01:59:26,880 we're going to start way at 4:30 or 2631 01:59:26,880 --> 01:59:28,719 something um where they're going to 2632 01:59:28,719 --> 01:59:31,000 actually discuss what's going on in the 2633 01:59:31,000 --> 01:59:36,000 C so I would think that if Midtown and 2634 01:59:36,000 --> 01:59:39,760 downtown could do list similar to this 2635 01:59:39,760 --> 01:59:41,440 and then you guys can compile it and 2636 01:59:41,440 --> 01:59:44,239 bring that forward for discussion that 2637 01:59:44,239 --> 01:59:46,760 might be a great idea you know you know 2638 01:59:46,760 --> 01:59:49,239 how I like to make work for other 2639 01:59:49,239 --> 01:59:52,239 people but I think I I just think that 2640 01:59:52,239 --> 01:59:53,440 would be a helpful way for you guys to 2641 01:59:53,440 --> 01:59:55,119 have some input and I would hope at Le 2642 01:59:55,119 --> 01:59:57,360 if those other two boards don't want to 2643 01:59:57,360 --> 01:59:59,360 or don't have the opportunity to at 2644 01:59:59,360 --> 02:00:01,560 least hopefully this could be on the 2645 02:00:01,560 --> 02:00:04,040 agenda you're reading our minds we're 2646 02:00:04,040 --> 02:00:05,679 going there we're gonna do it thank you 2647 02:00:05,679 --> 02:00:09,950 yeah thank you man John 2648 02:00:09,960 --> 02:00:12,360 Nicholson real

2683 02:01:40,119 --> 02:01:43,040 intersections 120 ballards having people 2684 02:01:43,040 --> 02:01:44,800 walk into the street because they have 2685 02:01:44,800 --> 02:01:47,360 to get around them these are going to be 2686 02:01:47,360 --> 02:01:49,320 bad things taking away all the plants in 2687 02:01:49,320 --> 02:01:51,079 the middle of the road because they want 2688 02:01:51,079 --> 02:01:53,560 to curve the road they want to raise the 2689 02:01:53,560 --> 02:01:56,000 intersection so they rise up and down 2690 02:01:56,000 --> 02:01:57,119 there a lot of things that they want to 2691 02:01:57,119 --> 02:01:59,199 do that as a tourist town we may not 2692 02:01:59,199 --> 02:02:03,440 want to do um third camera positioning 2693 02:02:03,440 --> 02:02:06,560 on cabb they had a bunch of pictures of 2694 02:02:06,560 --> 02:02:08,920 what they were showing for six months I 2695 02:02:08,920 --> 02:02:11,520 walked every Friday and Saturday for 2696 02:02:11,520 --> 02:02:13,760 five hours to see what the problem was 2697 02:02:13,760 --> 02:02:15,560 before we roll back to 2698 02:02:15,560 --> 02:02:19,400 3:00 the three worst locations where the 2699

02:02:24,360 --> 02:02:26,400 where your problems are you really 2703 02:02:26,400 --> 02:02:28,560 should have a camera where the problem 2704 02:02:28,560 --> 02:02:30,840 is but we don't so we may want to look 2705 02:02:30,840 --> 02:02:32,719 at that 2706 02:02:32,719 --> 02:02:36,119 um Apartments I was just at the downtown 2707 02:02:36,119 --> 02:02:38,320 Ser they were talking about a new

West 2724 02:03:22,320 --> 02:03:24,800 which was on the meeting has 2725 02:03:24,800 --> 02:03:28,159 property off of Main Street can we have 2726 02:03:28,159 --> 02:03:31,560 a little asking of

02:03:41,119 Youk all right we're on the board 2730 02:03:41,119 --> 02:03:42,559 comments does anybody have any comments 2731 02:03:42,559 --> 02:03:44,040 they'd like to 2732 02:03:44,040 --> 02:03:48,800 add um I have one thing um so one thing 2733 02:03:48,800 --> 02:03:50,239 that I didn't see in all of this that 2734 02:03:50,239 --> 02:03:53,280 has a little bit of a I don't I wouldn't 2735 02:03:53,280 --> 02:03:54,760 say it's a concern just a comment of 2736 02:03:54,760 --> 02:03:56,480 mine I would like to find a way if we 2737 02:03:56,480 --> 02:03:58,639 have any way to eliminate some of the 2738 02:03:58,639 --> 02:04:01,760 red tape for businesses in the area 2739 02:04:01,760 --> 02:04:04,400 because I think some of our issue as a 2740 02:04:04,400 --> 02:04:06,280 city has always been we make things a 2741 02:04:06,280 --> 02:04:08,440 little bit too prohibitive for 2742 02:04:08,440 --> 02:04:10,360 businesses to open and sometimes even to 2743 02:04:10,360 --> 02:04:12,040 stay open like with the gentleman we 2744 02:04:12,040 --> 02:04:14,320 just had in front of us I mean I think 2745 02:04:14,320 --> 02:04:16,199 if a business is making a concerted 2746 02:04:16,199 --> 02:04:17,920 effort to make those changes why should 2747 02:04:17,920 --> 02:04:20,239 we lose that business in our town 2748 02:04:20,239 --> 02:04:21,960 especially if it's a wellestablished 2749 02:04:21,960 --> 02:04:24,559 one that's been here that does well' be 2750 02:04:24,559 --> 02:04:26,559 a shame to lose that and the same thing 2751 02:04:26,559 --> 02:04:27,679 with our 2752 02:04:27,679 --> 02:04:29,559 zoning I don't know if there's a way for 2753 02:04:29,559 --> 02:04:32,079 us to look at it but some of our zoning 2754 02:04:32,079 --> 02:04:34,239 seems like it was made up to stop 2755 02:04:34,239 --> 02:04:37,000 businesses from opening so we have rdb 2756 02:04:37,000 --> 02:04:39,440 one Rd B2 across from rb3 across from 2757 02:04:39,440 --> 02:04:41,480 rdb 4 and they all have different spot 2758 02:04:41,480 --> 02:04:43,800 zonings that require people to come in 2759 02:04:43,800 --> 02:04:46,079 for a plan development and spend 2760 02:04:46,079 --> 02:04:47,480 exorbitant amounts that they can spend 2761 02:04:47,480 --> 02:04:48,760 on opening their 2762 02:04:48,760 --> 02:04:51,280 business on that so I I wonder if 2763 02:04:51,280 --> 02:04:53,599 there's a for us to take a look at that 2764 02:04:53,599 --> 02:04:56,400 plan maybe relax some of it so we can 2765 02:04:56,400 --> 02:04:58,599 see what the market actually decides 2766 02:04:58,599 --> 02:05:00,920 instead of telling people not to open 2767 02:05:00,920 --> 02:05:02,400 before they ever open and Mr chair I 2768 02:05:02,400 --> 02:05:04,840 like to take small bites also we are we 2769 02:05:04,840 --> 02:05:07,199 speaking of Main Street right now only 2770 02:05:07,199 --> 02:05:09,280 uh Main Street and ISB Main Street and 2771 02:05:09,280 --> 02:05:11,440 ISB our main two corridors right there 2772 02:05:11,440 --> 02:05:13,520 on the beach side I think and we're 2773 02:05:13,520 --> 02:05:15,440 talking about talking about buildings 2774 02:05:15,440 --> 02:05:18,360 frontting ISB and running Main Street 2775 02:05:18,360 --> 02:05:21,119 correct having having and I mean A1A as 2776 02:05:21,119 --> 02:05:23,639 well probably 2777 02:05:23,639 --> 02:05:25,199 and having the ability to be able to 2778 02:05:25,199 --> 02:05:27,559 open up with not a lot of not as much 2779 02:05:27,559 --> 02:05:30,199 red tape because I think historically I 2780 02:05:30,199 --> 02:05:31,760 know from a lot of business owners I've 2781 02:05:31,760 --> 02:05:33,880 talked to about coming yeah legitimate 2782 02:05:33,880 --> 02:05:35,119 concern I've tried to give people to 2783 02:05:35,119 --> 02:05:37,760 come down to that area and people say oh 2784 02:05:37,760 --> 02:05:41,360 well I tried 15 years ago for 10 months 2785 02:05:41,360 --> 02:05:42,960 and I just couldn't get through the city 2786 02:05:42,960 --> 02:05:45,159 process and I think as a city we're at a 2787 02:05:45,159 --> 02:05:47,320 different point now where we're trying 2788 02:05:47,320 --> 02:05:49,079 to encourage people a lot more than we 2789 02:05:49,079 --> 02:05:52,559 were say 10 years ago 15 years ago 2790 02:05:52,559 --> 02:05:54,159 in Redevelopment are and we're they're 2791 02:05:54,159 --> 02:05:55,840 in Redevelopment areas and we have the 2792 02:05:55,840 --> 02:05:58,280 fun so I mean if there's a way for us to 2793 02:05:58,280 --> 02:06:01,639 make the language less prohibitive yeah 2794 02:06:01,639 --> 02:06:03,880 I I I have I have a good thing to add 2795 02:06:03,880 --> 02:06:05,199 young lady over there should be first go 2796 02:06:05,199 --> 02:06:07,280 ahead first okay I just wanted to ask 2797 02:06:07,280 --> 02:06:10,639 what is the progress on the um sign so 2798 02:06:10,639 --> 02:06:13,320 people would know I have so many people 2799 02:06:13,320 --> 02:06:15,320 that come in they just wander from the 2800 02:06:15,320 --> 02:06:18,000 Hilton and they go I can't believe 2801 02:06:18,000 --> 02:06:20,840 you're here I had no idea I started 2802 02:06:20,840 --> 02:06:22,880 walking and there were so many empty 2803 02:06:22,880 --> 02:06:26,360 stores I had no idea you were here but 2804 02:06:26,360 --> 02:06:31,960 they got there kiosk yeah we that's one of the things I mean it's not 2805 02:06:31,960 --> 02:06:34,840 the the be all but I think the kiosk 2806 02:06:34,840 --> 02:06:37,440 would help with that identifying what 2807 02:06:37,440 --> 02:06:41,480 businesses are on Main on A1A on ISB in 2808 02:06:41,480 --> 02:06:43,440 close proximity yeah I just wondered 2809 02:06:43,440 --> 02:06:48,040 what the progress was on the one signage 2810 02:06:48,040 --> 02:06:51,079 thing this whatever right signage was 2811 02:06:51,079 --> 02:06:52,679 there were about five of us who had 2812 02:06:52,679 --> 02:06:56,040 signage things well can I but I can miss 2813 02:06:56,040 --> 02:07:00,079 hrey I I can say that um uh about four 2814 02:07:00,079 --> 02:07:03,079 of the uh department heads have been um 2815 02:07:03,079 --> 02:07:05,079 uh we've been doing our research on 2816 02:07:05,079 --> 02:07:06,880 who's got kios throughout the State of 2817 02:07:06,880 --> 02:07:09,480 Florida the cities um so the last couple 2818 02:07:09,480 --> 02:07:12,000 weeks I probably had four teams meeting 2819 02:07:12,000 --> 02:07:15,599 where we're we've um had meetings with 2820 02:07:15,599 --> 02:07:17,760 other cities and trying to determine how 2821 02:07:17,760 --> 02:07:20,040 did they go about um getting their kiosk 2822 02:07:20,040 --> 02:07:23,679 because these are cities that already have them um and what was the 2823 02:07:23,679 --> 02:07:26,679 cost um of it and and and you know how 2824 02:07:26,679 --> 02:07:29,239 they're using it so we're in that 2825 02:07:29,239 --> 02:07:31,840 process then we're going to dump it off 2826 02:07:31,840 --> 02:07:34,040 to um purchase and to put it out to B do 2827 02:07:34,040 --> 02:07:36,880 we have any rfps out there oh yeah 2828 02:07:36,880 --> 02:07:38,559 plenty of them we got we got several of 2829 02:07:38,559 --> 02:07:41,639 them okay yeah and that was part of our 2830 02:07:41,639 --> 02:07:43,320 due diligence with talking to these 2831 02:07:43,320 --> 02:07:46,920 other um cities that already have them 2832 02:07:46,920 --> 02:07:49,840 well and I the one thing I wanted to add 2833 02:07:49,840 --> 02:07:53,360 is that the current staff is why I have 2834 02:07:53,360 --> 02:07:56,199 so much respect for you is this staff 2835 02:07:56,199 --> 02:07:59,559 right now finds a reason to tell us yes 2836 02:07:59,559 --> 02:08:01,599 years before they found reasons to tell 2837 02:08:01,599 --> 02:08:05,400 us no so the old Daytona is no longer 2838 02:08:05,400 --> 02:08:08,400 the old Daytona this is the new Daytona 2839 02:08:08,400 --> 02:08:10,840 so if we can make it easier that's great 2840 02:08:10,840 --> 02:08:13,119 but here's the problem with that now 2841 02:08:13,119 --> 02:08:14,960 I've been I'm a business person I've 2842 02:08:14,960 --> 02:08:17,719 tried to put I got so much I have 2843 02:08:17,719 --> 02:08:20,880 acreage on East ISB on either side I've 2844 02:08:20,880 --> 02:08:22,079 tried to come up with a lot of things 2845 02:08:22,079 --> 02:08:23,440 cities disagreed with one of those 2846 02:08:23,440 --> 02:08:25,760 things but you know what hindsight 2847 02:08:25,760 --> 02:08:26,840 looking 2848 02:08:26,840 --> 02:08:29,719 back there was a there's a reason for 2849 02:08:29,719 --> 02:08:32,280 that because it's not just about what I 2850 02:08:32,280 --> 02:08:34,880 want it's really what the city needs and 2851 02:08:34,880 --> 02:08:38,679 what I want and the biggest thing with 2852 02:08:38,679 --> 02:08:40,719 myself personally taken out of this 2853 02:08:40,719 --> 02:08:46,159 equation is that what I've learned is to 2854 02:08:46,159 --> 02:08:48,760 try to do something that will benefit 2855 02:08:48,760 --> 02:08:50,599 the city so that's why I look to the 2856 02:08:50,599 --> 02:08:53,079 staff and the the zoning restrictions to 2857 02:08:53,079 --> 02:08:55,719 try to guide me in that now maybe we can 2858 02:08:55,719 --> 02:08:57,760 tweak them different ways I mean I agree 2859 02:08:57,760 --> 02:08:59,239 but we're looking at zoning standards 2860 02:08:59,239 --> 02:09:01,119 that were set in the early 90s and if 2861 02:09:01,119 --> 02:09:02,280 they were going to work they would have 2862 02:09:02,280 --> 02:09:05,920 worked by now in my own opinion well they're they're going just my 2863 02:09:05,920 --> 02:09:07,679 opinion well I I'm going to tell you 2864 02:09:07,679 --> 02:09:10,239 this and this is previous to this staff 2865 02:09:10,239 --> 02:09:13,880 getting here the past city manager my my 2866 02:09:13,880 --> 02:09:17,960 property

2872 02:09:30,719 --> 02:09:33,000 manager and the the gentleman the young 2873 02:09:33,000 --> 02:09:34,440 lady across street they straightened it 2874 02:09:34,440 --> 02:09:36,840 up for me right

got to be careful because if 2883 02:09:59,599 --> 02:10:02,199 you get years ago I wasn't the nicest 2884 02:10:02,199 --> 02:10:05,679 guy I ran strip clubs I I did own got to 2885 02:10:05,679 -->
