accomplishment.

301
00:10:17,260 --> 00:10:17,727
>> I I

302
00:10:17,727 --> 00:10:18,594
>> Empathetic with educators

303
00:10:18,594 --> 00:10:19,195
because I think it's one of

304
00:10:19,195 --> 00:10:22,565
the most on the rate of

305
00:10:22,565 --> 00:10:24,965
professions. Anywhere no one

306
00:10:25,901 --> 00:10:26,702
can become a doctor without

307
00:10:26,702 --> 00:10:30,302
having an educator or a lawyer

308
00:10:30,339 --> 00:10:33,209

309
00:10:33,209 --> 00:10:34,143
And so it reminds me of a

310
00:10:34,143 --> 00:10:36,945
quote from Melvyn gravely of

311
00:10:36,945 --> 00:10:37,613
his grandmother's wisdom's

312
00:10:37,613 --> 00:10:40,613
where he says that grandma

313
00:10:40,783 --> 00:10:41,483
told him that you you can

314
00:10:41,483 --> 00:10:42,651
scrub the floor with a mock.

315
00:10:42,651 --> 00:10:44,386
You have to get down on your

316
00:10:44,386 --> 00:10:45,521
knees and you have to work the

317
00:10:45,521 --> 00:10:46,222
corners. And that's what

318
00:10:46,222 --> 00:10:48,622
educators throughout the day

319
00:10:49,158 --> 00:10:50,960
as they plant seeds in the

320
00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:52,562

321
00:10:52,562 --> 00:10:55,498
develop them and she's done it

322
00:10:55,498 --> 00:10:56,198
for 30 years. So tonight just

323
00:10:56,198 --> 00:10:58,501

want to make sure that people

771
00:27:31,164 --> 00:27:31,831
know and understand the

772
00:27:31,831 --> 00:27:33,831
requirement to Callie 1, 1,

that we all as leaders in our

787
00:27:57,900 --> 00:27:59,458
community are aware of this

788
00:27:59,458 --> 00:28:00,160
and that we can go back share

789
00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:01,127

790
00:28:01,127 --> 00:28:01,761

former colleagues on the

829
00:29:26,713 --> 00:29:27,447

830
00:29:27,447 --> 00:29:29,516

00:29:43,263 --> 00:29:45,332
say that there will be a

837
00:29:45,332 --> 00:29:47,534

841
00:29:55,842 --> 00:29:59,442
would like to. Who knew him

842
00:30:00,130 --> 00:30:01,749

00:30:22,135 --> 00:30:25,135
But this was and incredible.

939
00:32:46,580 --> 00:32:47,247
of the presiding officer from

940
00:32:47,247 --> 00:32:49,647
further attendance at that

941
00:32:49,984 --> 00:32:52,687
meeting. If necessary, due to

942
00:32:52,687 --> 00:32:53,754
the nature of the disruption.

943
00:32:53,754 --> 00:32:55,356
The audience MAY be cleared

944
00:32:55,356 --> 00:32:55,956
from the council chambers or

945
00:32:55,956 --> 00:32:57,458
meeting location in the

946
00:32:57,458 --> 00:32:58,393
discretion of the presiding

947
00:32:58,393 --> 00:32:59,794
officer. Any person who

948
00:32:59,794 --> 00:33:00,528
refuses to leave the City

949
00:33:00,528 --> 00:33:03,528
Council chamber MAY be subject

950
00:33:06,367 --> 00:33:07,101
to arrest. Thank you,

951
00:33:07,101 --> 00:33:09,703
Secretary. Let the time or let

952
00:33:09,703 --> 00:33:10,371
the record reflect the time is

953
00:33:10,371 --> 00:33:11,605
05:33am. And go ahead. Call

954
00:33:11,605 --> 00:33:12,473
the first 5 speakers. If

955
00:33:12,473 --> 00:33:13,174
you're coming down, sit in the

956
00:33:13,174 --> 00:33:14,241
front row as so. You will be

957
00:33:14,241 --> 00:33:15,409
ready when your name is

958
00:33:15,409 --> 00:33:17,110
called.

959
00:33:17,110 --> 00:33:20,110
>> That is going to be

960
00:33:20,547 --> 00:33:22,250
Kathleen Pereira Loring in

961
00:33:22,250 --> 00:33:22,850
Anderson, Melanie Saxon,

962
00:33:22,850 --> 00:33:24,850
Isabella Spencer, Kira

963
00:33:27,210 --> 00:33:28,656
Marrero. Those 5 to come up

964
00:33:28,656 --> 00:33:29,323
front and Kathleen Pereira.

965
00:33:29,323 --> 00:33:31,192
You know the drill. You can

966
00:33:31,192 --> 00:33:31,892
take the podium and start with

967
00:33:31,892 --> 00:33:35,492
your name and address. Not a

968
00:33:36,397 --> 00:33:37,131
day.

969
00:33:37,131 --> 00:33:39,700
>> My name is Kathleen Prayer.

970
00:33:39,700 --> 00:33:41,703
My information is on file. In

971
00:33:41,703 --> 00:33:43,471
some ways I cannot blame the

972
00:33:43,471 --> 00:33:44,672
city Council for growing a

973
00:33:44,672 --> 00:33:45,606
death here in the citizens

974
00:33:45,606 --> 00:33:46,307
constantly complain about over

975
00:33:46,307 --> 00:33:46,975
development encroachment into

976
00:33:46,975 --> 00:33:48,975
previously peaceful

977
00:33:49,110 --> 00:33:50,978
neighborhoods and her and just

978
00:33:50,978 --> 00:33:51,746
traffic. After all, anyone

979
00:33:51,746 --> 00:33:53,514
would become numb to

980
00:33:53,514 --> 00:33:54,449
complaints after having their

981
00:33:54,449 --> 00:33:57,284
ears bent enough by those

982
00:33:57,284 --> 00:33:58,286
developers, full-time

983
00:33:58,286 --> 00:33:59,421
lobbyists. Hammer point is

984
00:33:59,421 --> 00:34:00,210
that the city council have

985
00:34:00,210 --> 00:34:00,755
developed that deaf ear

986
00:34:00,755 --> 00:34:03,257
because they haven't looked at

987
00:34:03,257 --> 00:34:03,958
the big picture. Most citizens

988
00:34:03,958 --> 00:34:06,294
don't come here just for the

989
00:34:06,294 --> 00:34:07,395
sake of complaining,

990
00:34:07,395 --> 00:34:09,297
especially when it means that

991
00:34:09,297 --> 00:34:11,299
they will have to leave jobs

992
00:34:11,299 --> 00:34:12,000
early enough and get Baber

993
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:12,633
senators to come here and

994
00:34:12,633 --> 00:34:13,768
petitioned the council to

995
00:34:13,768 --> 00:34:16,768
redress of grievances. I think

996
00:34:17,438 --> 00:34:18,138
they would much rather not

997
00:34:18,138 --> 00:34:18,874
have to worry about what the

998
00:34:18,874 --> 00:34:20,275
council will or will not do to

999
00:34:20,275 --> 00:34:23,211
protect their quality of life

1000
00:34:23,211 --> 00:34:25,346
or to worry that the council?

1001
00:34:25,346 --> 00:34:27,715
Well, York, the comprehensive

1002
00:34:27,715 --> 00:34:28,950
plan will reflexively

1003
00:34:28,950 --> 00:34:30,918
previously rational zoning

1004
00:34:30,918 --> 00:34:32,530
code in order to please

1005
00:34:32,530 --> 00:34:33,721
developers who don't care at

1006
00:34:33,721 --> 00:34:35,557
all about careful land use

1007
00:34:35,557 --> 00:34:37,392
planning much less ruining

1008
00:34:37,392 --> 00:34:39,394
neighborhoods as long as I can

1009
00:34:39,394 --> 00:34:40,661
make money. Just listen to the

1010
00:34:40,661 --> 00:34:41,362
neighborhoods which have had

1011
00:34:41,362 --> 00:34:44,666
to fight of Morgan the cursed

1012
00:34:44,666 --> 00:34:45,767
or an Old Depot, the

1013
00:34:45,767 --> 00:34:47,435
slaughterhouse and now maybe a

1014
00:34:47,435 --> 00:34:49,570
15,000 see poor. They play

1015
00:34:49,570 --> 00:34:51,606
soccer stadium in Saint Johns

1016
00:34:51,606 --> 00:34:52,607
Town center, especially when

1017
00:34:52,607 --> 00:34:53,841
there are plenty of land

1018
00:34:53,841 --> 00:34:54,976
opportunities in Jacksonville

1019
00:34:54,976 --> 00:34:56,911
that will not encroach upon

1020
00:34:56,911 --> 00:34:57,612
the quality of life for long

1021
00:34:57,612 --> 00:34:59,612
established neighborhoods. My

1022
00:35:01,150 --> 00:35:01,649
part of the old Regency Square

1023
00:35:01,649 --> 00:35:03,180
them are some commercial

1024
00:35:03,180 --> 00:35:04,986
center center or the Cecil

1025
00:35:04,986 --> 00:35:07,154
Field Center to name just a

1026
00:35:07,154 --> 00:35:07,922
few after our neighborhoods.

1027
00:35:07,922 --> 00:35:10,658
Want to save everyone time and

1028
00:35:10,658 --> 00:35:11,560
money over bad ideas. And we

1029
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:13,594
definitely want to save the

1030
00:35:13,594 --> 00:35:15,594
counselors council's years,

1031
00:35:17,165 --> 00:35:17,832
which would be very easy to do

1032
00:35:17,832 --> 00:35:20,232
codify and follow the 1995

1033
00:35:20,468 --> 00:35:22,868
neighborhood Bill of Rights

1034
00:35:22,870 --> 00:35:24,706
enforce the 2045 comprehensive

1035
00:35:24,706 --> 00:35:25,340
plan and be proactive in

1036
00:35:25,340 --> 00:35:27,340
stopping development that

1037
00:35:27,442 --> 00:35:29,578
encroach upon neighborhoods. I

1038
00:35:29,578 --> 00:35:30,912
hope you heard that loud and

1039
00:35:30,912 --> 00:35:31,579
clear and also please support

1040
00:35:31,579 --> 00:35:32,881
the right to Garden. Thank

1041
00:35:32,881 --> 00:35:33,615
you.

1042
00:35:33,615 --> 00:35:37,215
>> Thank u next we have Lauren

1043
00:35:39,254 --> 00:35:40,221
Anderson. Good evening. My

1044
00:35:40,221 --> 00:35:41,890
name is Lauren Anderson. And

1045
00:35:41,890 --> 00:35:44,250
I'm a resident of Atlantic

1046
00:35:44,250 --> 00:35:44,992
Beach. I'm here tonight in

1047
00:35:44,992 --> 00:35:46,828
support of the Free to Garden

1048
00:35:46,828 --> 00:35:47,563
Act, which will make community

1049
00:35:47,563 --> 00:35:49,963
and market gardens permissible

1050
00:35:52,340 --> 00:35:53,680
by Wright in Jacksonville. As

1051
00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:53,802
a social worker, fitness,

1052
00:35:53,802 --> 00:35:54,469
professional and herb list. My

1053
00:35:54,469 --> 00:35:56,869
entire life revolves around

1054
00:35:57,500 --> 00:35:58,600
health and wellness and at a

1055
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:00,410
time we have astronomically

1056
00:36:00,410 --> 00:36:00,742
high levels of anxiety and

1057
00:36:00,742 --> 00:36:01,442
obesity. It is more important

1058
00:36:01,442 --> 00:36:03,478
now than ever to ensure that

1059
00:36:03,478 --> 00:36:06,478
everyone has access to clean

1060
00:36:07,349 --> 00:36:08,490
and fresh food diet makes a

1061
00:36:08,490 --> 00:36:08,950
huge difference not only in

1062
00:36:08,950 --> 00:36:12,550
our health, but in our levels

1063
00:36:12,554 --> 00:36:13,221
of anxiety and depression. And

1064
00:36:13,221 --> 00:36:15,621
interacting with nature is

1065
00:36:16,858 --> 00:36:17,759
coming to the nervous system

1066
00:36:17,759 --> 00:36:20,159
beneficial for microbiome and

1067
00:36:20,729 --> 00:36:22,597
very good for immune systems

1068
00:36:22,597 --> 00:36:23,398
having community gardens and

1069
00:36:23,398 --> 00:36:24,650
urban farms allows more

1070
00:36:24,650 --> 00:36:26,435
opportunities for people to

1071
00:36:26,435 --> 00:36:27,903
interact with nature. Help

1072
00:36:27,903 --> 00:36:28,736
children understand where food

1073
00:36:28,736 --> 00:36:31,736
comes from and leads to

1074
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:33,750
healthier communities. I

1075
00:36:33,750 --> 00:36:34,209
imagine you've heard of the

1076
00:36:34,209 --> 00:36:35,770
affordability crisis that

1077
00:36:35,770 --> 00:36:37,477
we're in groceries are

1078
00:36:38,280 --> 00:36:38,914
insanely expensive and

1079
00:36:38,914 --> 00:36:39,614
healthcare is completely

1080
00:36:39,614 --> 00:36:42,140
unaffordable for people like

1081
00:36:42,885 --> 00:36:44,219
me. Most of us are making well

1082
00:36:44,219 --> 00:36:45,200
under $50,000 a year so

1083
00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:47,420
anywhere we can supplements

1084
00:36:47,455 --> 00:36:49,291
and grow things that make for

1085
00:36:49,291 --> 00:36:50,158
ourselves barter with our

1086
00:36:50,158 --> 00:36:52,558
neighbors, trade and sell

1087
00:36:53,695 --> 00:36:54,596
things that we grow is a win.

1088
00:36:54,596 --> 00:36:56,365
This is a neighborhood

1089
00:36:56,365 --> 00:36:58,330
friendly, common sense

1090
00:36:58,330 --> 00:36:59,901
legislation that builds upon

1091
00:36:59,901 --> 00:37:01,103
regional state and local

1092
00:37:01,103 --> 00:37:02,837
policy foundation's. I implore

1093
00:37:02,837 --> 00:37:03,505
you to recognize the

1094
00:37:03,505 --> 00:37:05,840
importance and efficacy of

1095
00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:07,809
urban community farming. We

1096
00:37:07,809 --> 00:37:09,678
hope you will vote for the

1097
00:37:09,678 --> 00:37:10,345
home occupations Bill and then

1098
00:37:10,345 --> 00:37:11,846
respectfully request you to

1099
00:37:11,846 --> 00:37:13,882
support the free to Garden Act

1100
00:37:13,882 --> 00:37:15,884
as a sponsor. Once it has been

1101
00:37:15,884 --> 00:37:17,653
filed to learn more, please

1102
00:37:17,653 --> 00:37:19,521
join us at the notice. Meeting

1103
00:37:19,521 --> 00:37:21,857
on AUGUST 19th at 10:15am, to

1104
00:37:21,857 --> 00:37:22,424
discuss. We can make

1105
00:37:22,424 --> 00:37:23,125
neighborhood friendly

1106
00:37:23,125 --> 00:37:24,793
marketing Community Gardens,

permissible Ri right. And by

1108
00:37:25,427 --> 00:37:27,663
amending the zoning Code.

1109
00:37:27,663 --> 00:37:28,296
Thank you for your time. Thank

1110
00:37:28,296 --> 00:37:31,296
u. Next. We have Melanie

1111
00:37:37,473 --> 00:37:38,440

00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:40,742
name is Melanie Saxon. My

address is 6, 0, 2, 7, myself

1114
00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:43,760
drive.

1115
00:37:43,745 --> 00:37:44,980
>> On Jacksonville's Westside.

1116
00:37:44,980 --> 00:37:47,182
Well, I've had a front yard

1117
00:37:47,182 --> 00:37:49,582
organic vegetable garden for 6

1118
00:37:50,318 --> 00:37:51,286
years with support from Nathan

1119
00:37:51,286 --> 00:37:52,254
and his team at men in

1120
00:37:52,254 --> 00:37:52,855
overalls. I've had the joy of

1121
00:37:52,855 --> 00:37:55,457
eating a lot of really

1122
00:37:55,457 --> 00:37:56,558
healthy, good food. I'm here

1123
00:37:56,558 --> 00:38:00,158
to speak in favor in support

1124
00:38:00,495 --> 00:38:02,464
of the free to Garden Act. A

1125
00:38:02,464 --> 00:38:03,532
development manager for food

1126
00:38:03,532 --> 00:38:04,232
Pantry in Springfield, which

1127
00:38:04,232 --> 00:38:08,432
shows most of, you know, is a

1128
00:38:08,537 --> 00:38:09,204
food desert. In the 2 years

1129
00:38:09,204 --> 00:38:10,500
that I've been there. I've

1130
00:38:10,500 --> 00:38:13,500
seen firsthand how much this

1131
00:38:13,275 --> 00:38:14,843
community needs food. The

1132
00:38:14,843 --> 00:38:15,544
number of people coming to us

1133
00:38:15,544 --> 00:38:18,544
for food is increasing every

1134
00:38:19,748 --> 00:38:21,917
month. We as a community need

1135
00:38:21,917 --> 00:38:23,685
to be doing all the smart

1136
00:38:23,685 --> 00:38:26,422
things we can to grow more

1137
00:38:26,422 --> 00:38:27,189
food to help people grow food

1138
00:38:27,189 --> 00:38:30,789
and to provide more food to

1139
00:38:31,260 --> 00:38:32,361
our community. Please vote for

1140
00:38:32,361 --> 00:38:35,130

1141
00:38:35,130 --> 00:38:37,400
once it's filed, please

1142
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:41,000
support the free to garden at

1143
00:38:41,103 --> 00:38:43,390
it's the right thing to do. To

1144
00:38:43,390 --> 00:38:45,207
learn more. Please join us at

1145
00:38:45,207 --> 00:38:47,109
the noticed meeting on August

1146
00:38:47,109 --> 00:38:49,211
19th at 10:15am, to discuss

1147
00:38:49,211 --> 00:38:50,146
how we can make neighborhood

1148
00:38:50,146 --> 00:38:52,546
friendly community and market

1149
00:38:53,682 --> 00:38:55,250
guard permissible by right?

1150
00:38:55,250 --> 00:38:58,850
Thank you. Our next speaker is

1151
00:39:04,893 --> 00:39:05,927
Isabella Spencer.

1152
00:39:05,927 --> 00:39:07,963
>> Hello, my name is Isabella

1153
00:39:07,963 --> 00:39:09,640
Spencer Live off of Enzo Way.

1154
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:09,999
I'm a resident of Duval

1155
00:39:09,999 --> 00:39:11,900
County. I'm coming to you

1156
00:39:11,900 --> 00:39:13,502
today to request an increase

1157
00:39:13,502 --> 00:39:14,169
in funding for the tnr program

1158
00:39:14,169 --> 00:39:17,239
in Duval County. As many of

1159
00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:19,975
you know, the stray and feral.

1160
00:39:19,975 --> 00:39:21,310
>> Community is an inch in is

1161
00:39:21,310 --> 00:39:22,778
an issue that is unfortunate

1162
00:39:22,778 --> 00:39:23,412
continuing to grow. I would I

1163
00:39:23,412 --> 00:39:24,113
do want to highlight the

1164
00:39:24,113 --> 00:39:26,513
impressive program that this

1165
00:39:28,618 --> 00:39:29,785
county has. We do need more

1166
00:39:29,785 --> 00:39:31,621
assistance, turning our backs

1167
00:39:31,621 --> 00:39:32,455
on this issue will not make it

1168
00:39:32,455 --> 00:39:33,655
disappear. Increasing the

1169
00:39:33,655 --> 00:39:35,691
funding will allow residents

1170
00:39:35,691 --> 00:39:36,392
of the county to help close

1171
00:39:36,392 --> 00:39:37,250
the gap that the shelters,

1172
00:39:37,250 --> 00:39:39,280
humane society and humane

1173
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:39,695
agents can't do themselves.

1174
00:39:39,695 --> 00:39:42,950
Every pet isn't accessible

1175
00:39:42,598 --> 00:39:44,566
resource. That helps many

1176
00:39:44,566 --> 00:39:46,269
residents throughout the

1177
00:39:46,269 --> 00:39:47,300
county. It remains accessible

1178
00:39:47,300 --> 00:39:49,380
by allowing its remain free to

1179
00:39:49,380 --> 00:39:49,939
those residents who don't

1180
00:39:49,939 --> 00:39:50,539
dedicate their time trapping

1181
00:39:50,539 --> 00:39:52,539
and transporting these

1182
00:39:54,110 --> 00:39:56,979
animals. By allowing the cost

1183
00:39:56,979 --> 00:39:57,913
to get cats fix allows us to

1184
00:39:57,913 --> 00:39:58,680
continue to tackle this

1185
00:39:58,680 --> 00:39:59,749
problem. I appreciate your

1186
00:39:59,749 --> 00:40:00,483
time and your consideration

1187
00:40:00,483 --> 00:40:03,483
and supporting the spay neuter

1188
00:40:05,321 --> 00:40:06,550
program and Duval County.

1189
00:40:06,550 --> 00:40:06,823
>> Thank you. Our next speaker

1190
00:40:06,823 --> 00:40:09,191
will be a row and rose coming

1191
00:40:09,191 --> 00:40:09,892
down. I'll call the next 5

1192
00:40:09,892 --> 00:40:12,127
speakers to come down to the

1193
00:40:12,127 --> 00:40:12,795
front row. Jennifer Joyner,

1194
00:40:12,795 --> 00:40:14,795
Nathan Valentine, Samantha

1195
00:40:15,765 --> 00:40:18,165
Series. Brooke McNeil and

1196
00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:22,200
Edward Whistler. Greetings.

1197
00:40:24,740 --> 00:40:27,900
>> I'm Karah Morrow. I'm the

1198
00:40:27,900 --> 00:40:27,943
director of dig local network

1199
00:40:27,943 --> 00:40:28,677
which trends to farmers

1200
00:40:28,677 --> 00:40:30,780
markets into community gardens

1201
00:40:30,780 --> 00:40:34,551
out at the beach. And I'm also

1202
00:40:34,551 --> 00:40:35,251
a resident of Atlantic Beach

1203
00:40:35,251 --> 00:40:39,451
here to speak in favor of the

1204
00:40:39,521 --> 00:40:41,123
free to Garden Act as somebody

1205
00:40:41,123 --> 00:40:41,857
who's been closely involved in

1206
00:40:41,857 --> 00:40:44,857
farmers, markets here in Duval

1207
00:40:45,328 --> 00:40:47,396
County since 2008, I've seen

1208
00:40:47,396 --> 00:40:48,598
more and more of our local

1209
00:40:48,598 --> 00:40:51,598
farm applicants come not from

1210
00:40:52,702 --> 00:40:53,302
traditional farmland, but from

1211
00:40:53,302 --> 00:40:54,570
homesteads small market

1212
00:40:54,570 --> 00:40:56,970
gardens and backyard farms

1213
00:40:57,740 --> 00:40:59,775
right here in Duval County.

1214
00:40:59,775 --> 00:41:01,977
It's I think very important

1215
00:41:01,977 --> 00:41:02,912
for the economic security our

1216
00:41:02,912 --> 00:41:04,912
small agricultural businesses

1217
00:41:05,681 --> 00:41:06,383
and Duval County to pursue

1218
00:41:06,383 --> 00:41:08,783
this kind of diversification

1219
00:41:12,355 --> 00:41:13,560
of efforts. Promote the use of

1220
00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:15,456
resources that are previously

1221
00:41:16,926 --> 00:41:17,493
and utilized. It's relieve

1222
00:41:17,493 --> 00:41:19,893
some pressure on our

1223
00:41:21,363 --> 00:41:22,650
agricultural supply chains,

1224
00:41:22,650 --> 00:41:22,732
especially as you as I'm sure

1225
00:41:22,732 --> 00:41:25,732
you've all seen with recent

1226
00:41:26,350 --> 00:41:28,435
recalls outages and Web

1227
00:41:29,506 --> 00:41:31,374
services. And and that farmers

1228
00:41:31,374 --> 00:41:32,108
markets and small markets in

1229
00:41:32,108 --> 00:41:35,108
general are a growth industry

1230
00:41:38,414 --> 00:41:39,810
within agriculture. It's also

1231
00:41:39,810 --> 00:41:40,950
promotes the visibility of

1232
00:41:40,950 --> 00:41:43,350
work. Unproductive land use

1233
00:41:43,686 --> 00:41:45,288
when you have a very indoor

1234
00:41:45,288 --> 00:41:46,222
work culture in the county,

1235
00:41:46,222 --> 00:41:48,591
it's really useful to young

1236
00:41:48,591 --> 00:41:51,591
people to see folks working

1237
00:41:52,950 --> 00:41:53,629
outdoors and producing food

1238
00:41:53,629 --> 00:41:56,629
themselves. And I'd like to

1239
00:42:00,971 --> 00:42:02,720
point out also that

1240
00:42:02,720 --> 00:42:04,472
agricultural land in Duval

1241
00:42:04,941 --> 00:42:07,941
County itself has been greatly

1242
00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:09,613
reduced between the year 2002

1243
00:42:09,613 --> 00:42:10,179
1010, we lost 85% of our

1244
00:42:10,179 --> 00:42:12,179
agricultural lands to

1245
00:42:12,682 --> 00:42:13,950
development here in Duval

1246
00:42:13,950 --> 00:42:16,850
County, which further stresses

1247
00:42:16,850 --> 00:42:16,786
those agricultural supply

1248
00:42:16,786 --> 00:42:20,386
chains. So I just would like

1249
00:42:21,691 --> 00:42:22,358
to emphasize that diversifying

1250
00:42:22,358 --> 00:42:24,293
the resources that we have

1251
00:42:24,293 --> 00:42:25,270
within the small agriculture

1252
00:42:25,270 --> 00:42:27,663
is critically important to our

1253
00:42:27,663 --> 00:42:30,663
future. Thank you. Thank u.

1254
00:42:34,204 --> 00:42:34,804
Next. We have Jennifer Joyner.

1255
00:42:34,804 --> 00:42:37,804
My Counsel. My name is

1256
00:42:38,410 --> 00:42:39,142
Jennifer. Join I am a member

1257
00:42:39,142 --> 00:42:42,713
of the Southeast cpac and my

1258
00:42:42,713 --> 00:42:43,346
address is on file.

1259
00:42:43,346 --> 00:42:44,814
>> I am here as our city

1260
00:42:44,814 --> 00:42:46,682
budget is currently in the

1261
00:42:46,682 --> 00:42:49,452
works and the proposed fiscal

1262
00:42:49,452 --> 00:42:50,119
year. 26 to 27 highlights our

1263
00:42:50,119 --> 00:42:52,455
highly lacking an allotment

1264
00:42:52,455 --> 00:42:53,122
for animal welfare. Despite an

1265
00:42:53,122 --> 00:42:55,522
ever-increasing need in our

1266
00:42:56,559 --> 00:42:57,226
growing city. I volunteered my

1267
00:42:57,226 --> 00:42:59,128
efforts and tnr trap neuter

1268
00:42:59,128 --> 00:43:01,231
return for those who don't

1269
00:43:01,231 --> 00:43:03,900
know for 6 years and the

1270
00:43:03,900 --> 00:43:04,568
difference this program makes

1271
00:43:04,568 --> 00:43:05,435
exponential for neighbors.

1272
00:43:05,435 --> 00:43:07,835
Shelters, rescues and of

1273
00:43:09,339 --> 00:43:11,739
course, the community cats.

1274
00:43:15,780 --> 00:43:18,480
Benefits of Tnr. See We've got

1275
00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:20,448
reduces unwanted kittens. Keep

1276
00:43:22,719 --> 00:43:24,554
cats in their territory. There

1277
00:43:24,554 --> 00:43:25,522
will give them much better

1278
00:43:25,522 --> 00:43:26,890
chance at having a good life.

1279
00:43:26,890 --> 00:43:26,756
Not being just dumped

1280
00:43:26,756 --> 00:43:28,125
somewhere where they don't

1281
00:43:28,125 --> 00:43:31,940
know where to get food and

1282
00:43:31,940 --> 00:43:32,963
water. It improves their

1283
00:43:32,963 --> 00:43:34,131
health by preventing

1284
00:43:34,131 --> 00:43:36,990
reproductive teases diseases

1285
00:43:36,990 --> 00:43:37,767
and reducing meeting related

1286
00:43:37,767 --> 00:43:38,468
injuries, reduces nuisance

1287
00:43:38,468 --> 00:43:41,468
behaviors. So whether or not

1288
00:43:41,771 --> 00:43:42,406
neighbors like cats,

1289
00:43:42,406 --> 00:43:44,406
regardless, everyone can

1290
00:43:44,508 --> 00:43:45,675
benefit with less room less

1291
00:43:45,675 --> 00:43:47,675
fighting, less, yelling,

1292
00:43:49,279 --> 00:43:50,547
spraying and meeting behavior

1293
00:43:50,547 --> 00:43:51,181
and it gradually decreases the

1294
00:43:51,181 --> 00:43:52,449
community cat population,

1295
00:43:52,449 --> 00:43:54,849
which ultimately helps all

1296
00:43:54,851 --> 00:43:55,519
animals. Because in shelters,

1297
00:43:55,519 --> 00:43:57,919
rescues and other resources

1298
00:44:02,259 --> 00:44:02,993
are freed up. So it helps them

1299
00:44:02,993 --> 00:44:03,694
in that way and just improve

1300
00:44:03,694 --> 00:44:05,694
relationship. Sometimes there

1301
00:44:06,830 --> 00:44:07,897
are problems with neighbors

1302
00:44:07,897 --> 00:44:09,320
just because there are cats

1303
00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:10,200
next door and they're having a

1304
00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:11,235
problem there yelling are

1305
00:44:11,235 --> 00:44:11,902
fighting because they're

1306
00:44:11,902 --> 00:44:12,636
wanting to meet. Well, Tnr

1307
00:44:12,636 --> 00:44:16,573
gets rid of that and then it's

1308
00:44:16,573 --> 00:44:17,273
no longer an issue. Duval

1309
00:44:17,273 --> 00:44:20,273
Catholics which covers Tnr is

1310
00:44:21,278 --> 00:44:23,678
currently funded at 2000. But

1311
00:44:24,648 --> 00:44:25,382
are $232,402 annually. This

1312
00:44:25,382 --> 00:44:26,150
was exhausted within the first

1313
00:44:26,150 --> 00:44:28,452
couple of months of the last

1314
00:44:28,452 --> 00:44:30,487
of this of this current fiscal

1315
00:44:30,487 --> 00:44:32,622
year per the ceo of every pet

1316
00:44:32,622 --> 00:44:35,920
who I consulted for a number.

1317
00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:36,960
This number has not been

1318
00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:38,960
increased 4 significantly for

1319
00:44:39,229 --> 00:44:41,131
many years. Our city is

1320
00:44:41,131 --> 00:44:41,832
growing very fast. So is our

1321
00:44:41,832 --> 00:44:42,499
animal population and an

1322
00:44:42,499 --> 00:44:44,899
effective increase would be

1323
00:44:45,869 --> 00:44:46,603
around a 10250,000 to cover,

1324
00:44:46,603 --> 00:44:49,506
the increased costs and demand

1325
00:44:49,506 --> 00:44:50,206
for this program. It is our

1326
00:44:50,206 --> 00:44:52,309
responsibility to be stewards

1327
00:44:52,309 --> 00:44:53,744
of GOD's creatures. We can do

1328
00:44:53,744 --> 00:44:54,411
better. Please consider this

1329
00:44:54,411 --> 00:44:57,411
as details are being worked

1330
00:44:58,248 --> 00:44:59,215
out in our budget has now is

1331
00:44:59,215 --> 00:45:01,585
the time to lead, by example

1332
00:45:01,585 --> 00:45:02,319
and to embrace this beautiful

1333
00:45:02,319 --> 00:45:02,986
responsibility that we've been

1334
00:45:02,986 --> 00:45:03,687
blessed with to do right by

1335
00:45:03,687 --> 00:45:05,922
the little guys in our city.

1336
00:45:05,922 --> 00:45:06,557
Thank you so much.

1337
00:45:06,557 --> 00:45:08,957
>> Thank u next speakers.

1338
00:45:17,167 --> 00:45:19,167
Nathan Valentine. Good

1339
00:45:22,506 --> 00:45:23,240
evening. My name is Nathan

1340
00:45:23,240 --> 00:45:26,840
Valentine. Or as farm grows at

1341
00:45:27,411 --> 00:45:30,114
one, 25 East, 7th Street. I'm

1342
00:45:30,114 --> 00:45:31,114
here as an urban gardening

1343
00:45:31,114 --> 00:45:33,514
entrepreneur, chair of the

1344
00:45:34,818 --> 00:45:36,453
Duval Urban Ag Council and on

1345
00:45:36,453 --> 00:45:37,540
behalf of 1630 people who

1346
00:45:37,540 --> 00:45:39,454
signed the petition for

1347
00:45:40,591 --> 00:45:41,225
permission to grow. Which

1348
00:45:41,225 --> 00:45:43,727
calls on City Council to

1349
00:45:43,727 --> 00:45:44,895
support the Free to Garden

1350
00:45:44,895 --> 00:45:46,430
Act. Proposed amendment to the

1351
00:45:46,430 --> 00:45:47,164
zoning code that will make

1352
00:45:47,164 --> 00:45:47,731
neighborhood friendly market.

1353
00:45:47,731 --> 00:45:48,365
And Kim Unity Gardens

1354
00:45:48,365 --> 00:45:50,765
permissible by Wright in

1355
00:45:51,469 --> 00:45:52,690
Jacksonville. I'd like to

1356
00:45:52,690 --> 00:45:52,803
submit the text of the

1357
00:45:52,803 --> 00:45:55,272
petition and list of names for

1358
00:45:55,272 --> 00:45:56,173
the record. If I MAY to

1359
00:45:56,173 --> 00:45:56,873
document the level of support.

1360
00:45:56,873 --> 00:45:59,273
This proposed legislation in

1361
00:46:00,878 --> 00:46:02,546
Joyce. To quote the petition

1362
00:46:02,546 --> 00:46:03,180
in part, whereas Jacksonville

1363
00:46:03,180 --> 00:46:05,883
has a proud tradition of

1364
00:46:05,883 --> 00:46:07,284
neighbors, feeding neighbors

1365
00:46:07,284 --> 00:46:09,353
and a centuries-old legacy of

1366
00:46:09,353 --> 00:46:10,200
backyard gardens market and

1367
00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:12,200
community gardens, urban

1368
00:46:12,289 --> 00:46:14,424
fruit, tree nurseries and

1369
00:46:14,424 --> 00:46:15,626
orchards. Where is Duval

1370
00:46:15,626 --> 00:46:17,161
County has no straightforward

1371
00:46:17,161 --> 00:46:18,729
business as usual means for

1372
00:46:18,729 --> 00:46:20,729
stand-alone community. Our

1373
00:46:20,731 --> 00:46:21,399
market garden to secure the

1374
00:46:21,399 --> 00:46:24,999
legal right to grow on most

1375
00:46:25,469 --> 00:46:26,770
property in Duval County. And

1376
00:46:26,770 --> 00:46:27,504
whereas diet related diseases

1377
00:46:27,504 --> 00:46:30,700
now kill more Floridians, then

1378
00:46:30,700 --> 00:46:31,142
faulty plumbing ever did

1379
00:46:31,142 --> 00:46:33,411
making access to fresh local

1380
00:46:33,411 --> 00:46:34,111
food every bit as essential to

1381
00:46:34,111 --> 00:46:37,111
public health as clean water

1382
00:46:37,981 --> 00:46:39,583
and pave streets. And whereas

1383
00:46:39,583 --> 00:46:41,852
Florida law confirms that food

1384
00:46:41,852 --> 00:46:42,720
cultivation even inside city

1385
00:46:42,720 --> 00:46:45,720
limits is a protected public

1386
00:46:45,923 --> 00:46:46,623
good rather than a nuisance.

1387
00:46:46,623 --> 00:46:47,959
Therefore, we the undersigned

1388
00:46:47,959 --> 00:46:49,727
urge the City Council to

1389
00:46:49,727 --> 00:46:51,595
support the free to Garden

1390
00:46:51,595 --> 00:46:52,296
Act. So future community

1391
00:46:52,296 --> 00:46:54,310
market gardens, gardeners can

1392
00:46:54,310 --> 00:46:56,431
focus on carrots, not

1393
00:46:58,469 --> 00:46:59,103
courthouse paperwork. We hope

1394
00:46:59,103 --> 00:47:02,103
you'll vote for the home

1395
00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:03,507
occupation Bill. Then we

1396
00:47:03,507 --> 00:47:04,408
respectfully request you to

1397
00:47:04,408 --> 00:47:06,877
sponsor the Free to Garden

1398
00:47:06,877 --> 00:47:09,813
Act. To learn more. Please

1399
00:47:09,813 --> 00:47:10,581
join us. Reese's public

1400
00:47:10,581 --> 00:47:12,981
noticed meeting on AUGUST 19

1401
00:47:14,585 --> 00:47:15,286
here in City Hall to discuss

1402
00:47:15,286 --> 00:47:15,987
how we can make neighborhood

1403
00:47:15,987 --> 00:47:17,988
friendly market in community

1404
00:47:17,988 --> 00:47:18,656
gardens permissible by right?

1405
00:47:18,656 --> 00:47:21,759
Thank you. And thank you so

1406
00:47:21,759 --> 00:47:22,427
much for your service. All

1407
00:47:22,427 --> 00:47:25,427
right. Thank you. Next, we

1408
00:47:28,399 --> 00:47:30,568
have some of the series.

1409
00:47:30,568 --> 00:47:31,736
Samantha Series address on

1410
00:47:31,736 --> 00:47:33,671
file. Of course, I'm here

1411
00:47:33,671 --> 00:47:34,471
today to talk about over

1412
00:47:34,471 --> 00:47:35,706
development.

1413
00:47:35,706 --> 00:47:37,208
>> I understand we do need

1414
00:47:37,208 --> 00:47:39,243
more homes. I think we need to

1415
00:47:39,243 --> 00:47:41,178
maybe have more affordable

1416
00:47:41,178 --> 00:47:41,812
homes. I recently read an

1417
00:47:41,812 --> 00:47:44,148
article that stated that

1418
00:47:44,148 --> 00:47:45,883
Florida is number one. Number

1419
00:47:45,883 --> 00:47:47,351
one in foreclosures. That's

1420
00:47:47,351 --> 00:47:48,285
for sure. So I think we're

1421
00:47:48,285 --> 00:47:49,687
running into an issue where

1422
00:47:49,687 --> 00:47:52,687
we're building too quickly and

1423
00:47:53,825 --> 00:47:54,559
costing too much people are

1424
00:47:54,559 --> 00:47:55,627
buying in a non able to make

1425
00:47:55,627 --> 00:47:59,227
those payments. So now we are

1426
00:47:59,497 --> 00:48:00,598
number one in foreclosures.

1427
00:48:00,598 --> 00:48:03,134
Again, I think we need more

1428
00:48:03,134 --> 00:48:04,101
affordable homes rather than

1429
00:48:04,101 --> 00:48:06,700
just over developing creating

1430
00:48:06,700 --> 00:48:09,400
heat domes in our city.

1431
00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:09,707
Natural land does keep our

1432
00:48:09,707 --> 00:48:12,107
temperatures down. It does

1433
00:48:12,210 --> 00:48:15,210
filter out the the wastewater

1434
00:48:16,747 --> 00:48:19,150
to not, you know, get into our

1435
00:48:19,150 --> 00:48:21,550
drinking water streams, rivers

1436
00:48:22,453 --> 00:48:25,223
and ocean. It helps with. All

1437
00:48:25,223 --> 00:48:27,258
sorts of reasons. And I wanted

1438
00:48:27,258 --> 00:48:27,958
to inform you guys. There was

1439
00:48:27,958 --> 00:48:29,860
a new report from the public

1440
00:48:29,860 --> 00:48:31,663
employees for Environmental

1441
00:48:31,663 --> 00:48:33,664
responsibility and the Water

1442
00:48:33,664 --> 00:48:35,566
Keepers. Florida reveals that

1443
00:48:35,566 --> 00:48:37,569
over 52% of assessed water

1444
00:48:37,569 --> 00:48:38,736
bodies in Florida fail to meet

1445
00:48:38,736 --> 00:48:39,970
the state water quality

1446
00:48:39,970 --> 00:48:40,572
standards due to excessive

1447
00:48:40,572 --> 00:48:42,572
nutrients and bacterial

1448
00:48:44,242 --> 00:48:46,211
contaminations. But the

1449
00:48:46,211 --> 00:48:47,411
findings show a significant

1450
00:48:47,411 --> 00:48:48,146
decline. Environmental

1451
00:48:48,146 --> 00:48:48,880
enforcement with state actions

1452
00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:50,781
are dropping to less than half

1453
00:48:50,781 --> 00:48:53,181
of their historical average

1454
00:48:53,885 --> 00:48:55,186
despite the surge in

1455
00:48:55,186 --> 00:48:55,853
population over development is

1456
00:48:55,853 --> 00:48:58,823
part of the reason we are

1457
00:48:58,823 --> 00:49:01,392
having this issue. We need to

1458
00:49:01,392 --> 00:49:04,392
protect our natural lands. Not

1459
00:49:04,896 --> 00:49:05,429
only just for enjoyment, it

1460
00:49:05,429 --> 00:49:06,897
actually helps the

1461
00:49:06,897 --> 00:49:08,566
environment. It helps our

1462
00:49:08,566 --> 00:49:12,166
water. We are being poisoned v

1463
00:49:13,171 --> 00:49:15,600
a our food, our water, our

1464
00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:16,107
air. We need natural land to

1465
00:49:16,107 --> 00:49:17,842
make sure we are able to get

1466
00:49:17,842 --> 00:49:19,430
rid of some of those prudence.

1467
00:49:19,430 --> 00:49:21,579
I know you all I'm sure have

1468
00:49:21,579 --> 00:49:22,914
heard of forever chemicals. We

1469
00:49:22,914 --> 00:49:25,314
have some legislation that's

1470
00:49:25,616 --> 00:49:26,584
coming up to address 2 of

1471
00:49:26,584 --> 00:49:27,419
them. There's hundreds of

1472
00:49:27,419 --> 00:49:28,520
forever chemicals. It is very

1473
00:49:28,520 --> 00:49:30,254
difficult to get forever

1474
00:49:30,254 --> 00:49:33,358
chemicals out of our water and

1475
00:49:33,358 --> 00:49:34,392
it's dangerous. People are

1476
00:49:34,392 --> 00:49:36,261
getting sick. It's not

1477
00:49:36,261 --> 00:49:38,295
something that is a trick to

1478
00:49:38,295 --> 00:49:39,331
address lightly and each step

1479
00:49:39,331 --> 00:49:41,132
each person in our city

1480
00:49:41,132 --> 00:49:42,000
council, each part of our

1481
00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:43,735
politics. They need to start

1482
00:49:43,735 --> 00:49:45,403
addressing these things

1483
00:49:45,403 --> 00:49:46,671
because it's the people that

1484
00:49:46,671 --> 00:49:48,473
are hurting. The companies are

1485
00:49:48,473 --> 00:49:50,175
making money that people are

1486
00:49:50,175 --> 00:49:52,277
being hurt. It's not easy. I

1487
00:49:52,277 --> 00:49:53,979
know people in many different

1488
00:49:53,979 --> 00:49:54,679
cities, a lot of them are

1489
00:49:54,679 --> 00:49:55,413
having health issues because

1490
00:49:55,413 --> 00:49:57,813
of the contamination that's

1491
00:49:58,149 --> 00:49:58,883
happening. Thank you.

1492
00:49:58,883 --> 00:50:01,883
>> Thank you. Our next speaker

1493
00:50:09,127 --> 00:50:11,229
is Brooke McNeil. Good

1494
00:50:11,229 --> 00:50:13,164
evening. My name is perfect.

1495
00:50:13,164 --> 00:50:13,898
Meal with Final Acre Urban

1496
00:50:13,898 --> 00:50:15,900
farm in the Fort Caroline area

1497
00:50:15,900 --> 00:50:17,680
14. 21 Kate Lee Road.

1498
00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:18,200
>> I'm here tonight to support

1499
00:50:18,200 --> 00:50:20,710
the Free to Garden Act, which

1500
00:50:20,710 --> 00:50:21,273
will make neighborhood

1501
00:50:21,273 --> 00:50:21,973
friendly community and market

1502
00:50:21,973 --> 00:50:24,373
gardens permissible by Wright

1503
00:50:25,577 --> 00:50:27,977
in Jacksonville. When my

1504
00:50:28,146 --> 00:50:28,813
husband I first started

1505
00:50:28,813 --> 00:50:31,115
transforming our front yard

1506
00:50:31,115 --> 00:50:31,750
into garden in 2020. We were

1507
00:50:31,750 --> 00:50:33,985
afraid that the neighbors

1508
00:50:33,985 --> 00:50:36,200
would hate Kuz our property

1509
00:50:36,200 --> 00:50:38,420
zoned residential, real, but

1510
00:50:39,992 --> 00:50:40,625
we're surrounded by hr ways.

1511
00:50:40,625 --> 00:50:41,426
Much our surprise. It was

1512
00:50:41,426 --> 00:50:43,826
actually the opposite. They

1513
00:50:44,162 --> 00:50:46,298
loved it. I can't tell you how

1514
00:50:46,298 --> 00:50:46,998
many times people have been

1515
00:50:46,998 --> 00:50:47,699
walking by walking their dog

1516
00:50:47,699 --> 00:50:51,169
out working and want to stop.

1517
00:50:51,169 --> 00:50:52,170
Talk to us, bring their

1518
00:50:52,170 --> 00:50:54,105
grandkids and showing where a

1519
00:50:54,105 --> 00:50:56,241
tomato or care it actually

1520
00:50:56,241 --> 00:50:58,900
comes from. I believe growing

1521
00:50:58,900 --> 00:50:59,177
food should be right

1522
00:50:59,177 --> 00:50:59,877
accessible to every person who

1523
00:50:59,877 --> 00:51:02,614
desires to do so for

1524
00:51:02,614 --> 00:51:04,650
themselves or for others.

1525
00:51:04,650 --> 00:51:05,883
Garden strengthen communities.

1526
00:51:05,883 --> 00:51:07,686
Improve health of those who

1527
00:51:07,686 --> 00:51:10,540
grow them and those who eat

1528
00:51:10,540 --> 00:51:11,990
from them. So we hope you'll

1529
00:51:11,990 --> 00:51:14,259
vote for the home occupations

1530
00:51:14,259 --> 00:51:16,228
bill. And then we respectfully

1531
00:51:16,228 --> 00:51:17,396
request you to support the

1532
00:51:17,396 --> 00:51:19,264

>> My name is Eddie Whisler

1550
00:51:58,937 --> 00:51:59,571
and I'm a resident of

1551
00:51:59,571 --> 00:52:01,971
Jacksonville Beach and my

1552
00:52:02,541 --> 00:52:03,575
address is 14. 25 Tanglewood

1553
00:52:03,575 --> 00:52:06,575
Road. I'm here tonight to

1554
00:52:07,790 --> 00:52:08,180
support the free to garden at

1555
00:52:08,180 --> 00:52:09,481
which makes neighborhood

1556
00:52:09,481 --> 00:52:11,881
friendly community and market

1557
00:52:13,819 --> 00:52:14,786
gardens permissible by Wright

1558
00:52:14,786 --> 00:52:15,421
in Jacksonville. You're at

1559
00:52:15,421 --> 00:52:16,121
from some other gardening

1560
00:52:16,121 --> 00:52:18,521
entrepreneurs and people who

1561
00:52:19,558 --> 00:52:22,361
are in the business. I would

1562
00:52:22,361 --> 00:52:23,795
love to support those folks.

1563
00:52:23,795 --> 00:52:24,696
And I'm hoping that you would

1564
00:52:24,696 --> 00:52:26,640
be able to as well with this

1565
00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:29,664
free to Garden Act. Some of

1566
00:52:29,768 --> 00:52:32,168
us. Just really love

1567
00:52:32,504 --> 00:52:33,205
gardening. And some of us are

1568
00:52:33,205 --> 00:52:36,805
better than the others of us.

1569
00:52:39,511 --> 00:52:40,178
Adam. But all the same the

1570
00:52:40,178 --> 00:52:40,880
property owners should have

1571
00:52:40,880 --> 00:52:43,915
the right to be able to grow

1572
00:52:43,915 --> 00:52:44,917
food without excessive

1573
00:52:44,917 --> 00:52:46,917
bureaucratic barriers. And

1574
00:52:48,887 --> 00:52:51,357
seems to be able to align this

1575
00:52:51,357 --> 00:52:52,240
act does align our zoning code

1576
00:52:52,240 --> 00:52:54,240
with Jacksonville's, local

1577
00:52:55,661 --> 00:52:56,328
government comprehensive plan,

1578
00:52:56,328 --> 00:52:58,728
the Florida home occupation

1579
00:53:00,980 --> 00:53:01,330
bill and the right to farm.

1580
00:53:01,330 --> 00:53:02,902
And then also protects the

1581
00:53:02,902 --> 00:53:05,902
right to feed ourselves and

1582
00:53:07,939 --> 00:53:09,400
our neighbors. And so this

1583
00:53:09,400 --> 00:53:09,808
neighborhood friendly

1584
00:53:09,808 --> 00:53:10,810
commonsense legislation that

1585
00:53:10,810 --> 00:53:13,210
builds upon residential state

1586
00:53:13,278 --> 00:53:14,113
and local policy foundation's

1587
00:53:14,113 --> 00:53:17,713
is one that we should really

1588
00:53:18,183 --> 00:53:18,984
consider so please consider Co

1589
00:53:18,984 --> 00:53:21,984

1590
00:53:22,854 --> 00:53:23,556

00:53:35,868 --> 00:53:36,535
Top. Good evening. My name is

1593
00:53:36,535 --> 00:53:38,104
e and I'm here representing

1594
00:53:38,104 --> 00:53:38,804
farm and forage small.

1595
00:53:38,804 --> 00:53:41,204
>> Urban farm located Murray

1596
00:53:42,908 --> 00:53:43,609
Hill. I'm here tonight and

1597
00:53:43,609 --> 00:53:47,209
support of the Free to Garden

1598
00:53:47,980 --> 00:53:49,648
Act. So one of the biggest

1599
00:53:49,648 --> 00:53:50,616
challenges of urban farms

1600
00:53:50,616 --> 00:53:52,451
isn't the ability to grow food

1601
00:53:52,451 --> 00:53:54,587
or the demand from our

1602
00:53:54,587 --> 00:53:55,621
neighbors navigating

1603
00:53:55,621 --> 00:53:57,223
unnecessary barriers that can

1604
00:53:57,223 --> 00:53:57,890
make it difficult for

1605
00:53:57,890 --> 00:53:59,890
small-scale growers operate

1606
00:54:01,260 --> 00:54:01,694
where they're needed most.

1607
00:54:01,694 --> 00:54:04,940
Their families looking for

1608
00:54:04,964 --> 00:54:06,650
fresh local food farmers.

1609
00:54:06,650 --> 00:54:07,650
Markets looking for more local

1610
00:54:07,650 --> 00:54:09,401
vendors and property owners

1611
00:54:09,401 --> 00:54:11,570
who want to put their land to

1612
00:54:11,570 --> 00:54:12,304
productive use neighborhood

1613
00:54:12,304 --> 00:54:13,500
scale gardens and market farms

1614
00:54:13,500 --> 00:54:16,605
can help meet all 3 of those

1615
00:54:16,976 --> 00:54:17,743
needs. This is not about

1616
00:54:17,743 --> 00:54:19,743
turning neighborhoods into

1617
00:54:20,120 --> 00:54:21,130
industrial farms. It's about

1618
00:54:21,130 --> 00:54:22,781
allowing responsible

1619
00:54:22,781 --> 00:54:23,482
neighborhood friendly food

1620
00:54:23,482 --> 00:54:25,882
production to exist alongside

1621
00:54:26,840 --> 00:54:28,120
the communities. It serves.

1622
00:54:28,120 --> 00:54:29,555
Let's work together to make

1623
00:54:29,555 --> 00:54:30,156
Jacksonville more resilient,

1624
00:54:30,156 --> 00:54:30,890

1625
00:54:30,890 --> 00:54:31,924
businesses and increase access

1626
00:54:31,924 --> 00:54:35,524
to fresh food. Thank you for

00:54:35,628 --> 00:54:36,261
your time. Thank you. Our next

1628
00:54:36,261 --> 00:54:38,661

1629
00:54:40,933 --> 00:54:42,933
Valentine.

1630
00:54:46,380 --> 00:54:47,106
>> Good evening. My name is

mom. To support the free to

1636
00:54:57,817 --> 00:54:58,451
Garden Act because my friends,

1637
00:54:58,451 --> 00:55:00,252
kids who refuse to eat

1638
00:55:00,252 --> 00:55:02,322
vegetables at home, we'll eat

1639
00:55:02,322 --> 00:55:04,356
lettuce and kale pick straight

1640
00:55:04,356 --> 00:55:07,226
out of our neighborhood farm.

1641
00:55:07,226 --> 00:55:09,228
I've heard concerns that urban

1642
00:55:09,228 --> 00:55:12,310
gardens could be a nuisance.

1643
00:55:12,310 --> 00:55:13,999
So I support this proposal

1644
00:55:13,999 --> 00:55:15,268
because it addresses concerns

1645
00:55:15,268 --> 00:55:15,901
like these while celebrating

1646
00:55:15,901 --> 00:55:18,901
the beauty of fresh grown

1647
00:55:18,904 --> 00:55:22,410
food. I hope you will vote for

1648
00:55:22,410 --> 00:55:22,742
the home occupations And then

1649
00:55:22,742 --> 00:55:25,742
I respectfully ask you to

1650
00:55:25,978 --> 00:55:26,646

an AUGUST 19 because you've

1654
00:55:32,652 --> 00:55:33,319
heard previously to discuss

1655
00:55:33,319 --> 00:55:36,522
how we can amend the zoning

1656
00:55:36,522 --> 00:55:37,189
code. Thank you for your

00:55:37,189 --> 00:55:39,959

00:55:53,706 --> 00:55:54,440
Mikey, how from Ken Danko

1662
00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:58,400
Farms and Urban Farm in Murray

1663
00:55:59,450 --> 00:56:00,613
Hill. My address is 33 28 Plum

1664
00:56:00,613 --> 00:56:04,213
Street and I'm here in support

1665
00:56:04,483 --> 00:56:08,621
of the free to garnet. For the

1666
00:56:08,621 --> 00:56:09,388
following reasons. My dad to

1667
00:56:09,388 --> 00:56:10,560
grandpas or to a grandpa and

1668
00:56:10,560 --> 00:56:12,892
uncle and an aunt have all

1669
00:56:12,892 --> 00:56:14,960
died from various cancers. My

1670
00:56:14,960 --> 00:56:17,960
mom has copd. My father, my

1671
00:56:17,960 --> 00:56:20,960
stepdad has diabetes. My uncle

1672
00:56:20,266 --> 00:56:20,933
have Parkinson's right now. I

1673
00:56:20,933 --> 00:56:23,333
was 300 pounds and 13 years

1674
00:56:25,372 --> 00:56:26,205
old. I struggle with substance

1675
00:56:26,205 --> 00:56:26,907
abuse and mental and physical

1676
00:56:26,907 --> 00:56:29,907
health conditions. Most of my

1677
00:56:30,510 --> 00:56:31,210
adult life. Growing plants and

1678
00:56:31,210 --> 00:56:34,210
connecting to food. Saved my

1679
00:56:34,381 --> 00:56:36,781
life. Cook connecting the

1680
00:56:38,384 --> 00:56:39,118
community, saved my life. My

1681
00:56:39,118 --> 00:56:42,718
hands or what can an urban

1682
00:56:43,389 --> 00:56:44,424
farm do? My hands have moved

1683
00:56:44,424 --> 00:56:45,324
upwards of nearly half a

1684
00:56:45,324 --> 00:56:46,580
million pounds of food into

1685
00:56:46,580 --> 00:56:49,658
this community in 4 and a half

1686
00:56:50,430 --> 00:56:53,430
years. I planted. Hundreds of

1687
00:56:54,367 --> 00:56:55,168
thousands of seats. After

1688
00:56:55,168 --> 00:56:58,504
this. I'm going home to plant

1689
00:56:58,504 --> 00:57:00,973
trees and more seat. Imagine

1690
00:57:00,973 --> 00:57:01,641
what these hands could do with

1691
00:57:01,641 --> 00:57:03,641
unfettered support. Opposes

1692
00:57:05,578 --> 00:57:06,245
skepticism. Or apprehension.

1693
00:57:06,245 --> 00:57:09,845
And this is not a political

1694
00:57:11,785 --> 00:57:13,786
issue. Everyone wins. We work

1695
00:57:13,786 --> 00:57:14,520
together. Jacksonville could

1696
00:57:14,520 --> 00:57:16,856
be an example for not just the

1697
00:57:16,856 --> 00:57:18,158
rest of this state. But the

1698
00:57:18,158 --> 00:57:18,758
rest of the country for what's

1699
00:57:18,758 --> 00:57:20,758
possible with community

1700
00:57:21,694 --> 00:57:23,730
gardens and urban farms.

1701
00:57:23,730 --> 00:57:25,632
Plants and food do not care

1702
00:57:25,632 --> 00:57:26,232
about gender race, religion,

1703
00:57:26,232 --> 00:57:28,232
socioeconomic class or

1704
00:57:28,334 --> 00:57:29,236
political affiliation. And

1705
00:57:29,236 --> 00:57:30,360
this is a chance to display

1706
00:57:30,360 --> 00:57:33,360
that unity is not only

1707
00:57:33,406 --> 00:57:35,775
possible practical. So please

1708
00:57:35,775 --> 00:57:38,775
join us. AUGUST 19 for the

1709
00:57:39,846 --> 00:57:40,547
meeting at 10:15am, to discuss

1710
00:57:40,547 --> 00:57:41,447
making community gardens and

1711
00:57:41,447 --> 00:57:42,115
urban farms permissible by

1712
00:57:42,115 --> 00:57:44,383
right? Thank you, guys. For

1713
00:57:44,383 --> 00:57:45,850
hearing saw today. All right.

1714
00:57:45,850 --> 00:57:48,850
Thank you. Next, have Lindsay

1715
00:57:53,360 --> 00:57:55,428
Schaffer? Good Evening Council

1716
00:57:55,428 --> 00:57:57,330
members. My name is Lindsay

1717
00:57:57,330 --> 00:57:57,897
Schaefer addresses 14 31

1718
00:57:57,897 --> 00:57:58,565
Riverplace Boulevard.

1719
00:57:58,565 --> 00:58:01,668
>> And I have lived in the

1720
00:58:01,668 --> 00:58:03,303
South Bank for 8 years after

1721
00:58:03,303 --> 00:58:03,970
moving to Jacksonville, I

1722
00:58:03,970 --> 00:58:06,370
noticed many community cats

1723
00:58:07,340 --> 00:58:07,974
living in the neighborhood. I

1724
00:58:07,974 --> 00:58:08,942
realized that these cats

1725
00:58:08,942 --> 00:58:10,377
needed help. So I did my

1726
00:58:10,377 --> 00:58:11,545
research. And with help from

1727
00:58:11,545 --> 00:58:14,545
the community, I learned about

1728
00:58:16,215 --> 00:58:16,851
trap neuter and release Tnr.

1729
00:58:16,851 --> 00:58:17,851
And the wonderful program

1730
00:58:17,851 --> 00:58:21,254
available to us at every pet

1731
00:58:21,254 --> 00:58:21,821
and trapped. My first cat

1732
00:58:21,821 --> 00:58:23,322
today I am requesting

1733
00:58:23,322 --> 00:58:25,722
additional funding from the

1734
00:58:26,590 --> 00:58:26,893
city to help cover vet care

1735
00:58:26,893 --> 00:58:28,795
for spay and neuter programs

1736
00:58:28,795 --> 00:58:31,164
so that my fellow trappers and

1737
00:58:31,164 --> 00:58:32,432
I and continue to stretch our

1738
00:58:32,432 --> 00:58:34,832
personal dollars elsewhere in

1739
00:58:35,602 --> 00:58:36,269
this cause items such as fuel

1740
00:58:36,269 --> 00:58:38,669
for transportation, for the

1741
00:58:39,673 --> 00:58:40,407
cats back and forth for the

1742
00:58:40,407 --> 00:58:43,407
tuna and rotisserie chicken as

1743
00:58:43,643 --> 00:58:44,845
and Tyson bait with a large

1744
00:58:44,845 --> 00:58:45,946
traps themselves and all the

1745
00:58:45,946 --> 00:58:48,982
other gear that helps us trap

1746
00:58:48,982 --> 00:58:50,584
more cats more efficiently,

1747
00:58:50,584 --> 00:58:51,285
additional funding for this

1748
00:58:51,285 --> 00:58:52,919
program would also reduce the

1749
00:58:52,919 --> 00:58:54,722
burden on our local shelter

1750
00:58:54,722 --> 00:58:56,156
intake and help prevent the

1751
00:58:56,156 --> 00:58:57,291
growth of community cat of the

1752
00:58:57,291 --> 00:58:59,291
community. Cat population.

1753
00:59:00,794 --> 00:59:01,261
Thank you for your time and

1754
00:59:01,261 --> 00:59:01,928
consideration.

1755
00:59:01,928 --> 00:59:02,962
>> Thank you very much. Our

Coming up, I'll read the next

>> I'm Suzanne Kramer and I

1765
00:59:21,414 --> 00:59:23,216
live in San Marco and in 2010,

1766
00:59:23,216 --> 00:59:26,216
I started trapping feral cats

1767
00:59:26,386 --> 00:59:28,288
and I'm still at it. There are

1768
00:59:28,288 --> 00:59:29,656
a lot of four-letter words in

1769
00:59:29,656 --> 00:59:30,357
this life that here a couple

1770
00:59:30,357 --> 00:59:33,957
good for a letter. Words for

1771
00:59:37,298 --> 00:59:37,998
you. Spay safe. We would

1772
00:59:37,998 --> 00:59:39,566
really like more funding. The

1773
00:59:39,566 --> 00:59:41,869
cats need help. I'm a cat

1774
00:59:41,869 --> 00:59:44,537
lover. I do it. I cannot tell

1775
00:59:44,537 --> 00:59:45,573
you how many people do it that

1776
00:59:45,573 --> 00:59:46,806
are not huge cat lovers, but

1777
00:59:46,806 --> 00:59:49,806
it's the right thing. Thank

1778
00:59:54,781 --> 00:59:56,116
you so much.

1779
00:59:56,116 --> 00:59:56,817
>> Thank u. Next is Steven has

1780
00:59:56,817 --> 00:59:58,585
been and if we could just be

1781
00:59:58,585 --> 01:00:00,687
more specific when we state

1782
01:00:00,687 --> 01:00:01,388
our address, neighborhoods are

1783
01:00:01,388 --> 01:00:02,880
nice. But if you could either

1786
01:00:05,590 --> 01:00:06,193
thank you.

1787
01:00:06,193 --> 01:00:08,593
>> Good afternoon. My name

1788
01:00:08,929 --> 01:00:10,531
Stephen has the head farm and

1789
01:00:10,531 --> 01:00:11,310
earth his farm and work live

1790
01:00:11,310 --> 01:00:13,310
13. 36 Overstreet

1791
01:00:14,134 --> 01:00:15,469
Jacksonville, Florida. I'm

1792
01:00:15,469 --> 01:00:16,103
here today to speak to speak

1793
01:00:16,103 --> 01:00:18,506
in support of the free to

1794
01:00:18,506 --> 01:00:19,106
Garden Act. And I want to tell

1795
01:00:19,106 --> 01:00:21,442
you guys about a former

1796
01:00:21,442 --> 01:00:23,677
student mine. He's smart as

1797
01:00:23,677 --> 01:00:24,344
can be, but he's struggled to

1798
01:00:24,344 --> 01:00:25,779
find direction. He's a gang

1799
01:00:25,779 --> 01:00:26,714
members. Faced a life of

1800
01:00:26,714 --> 01:00:29,449
struggle. But in my class, he

1801
01:00:29,449 --> 01:00:30,840
found something he loved

1802
01:00:30,840 --> 01:00:32,840
agriculture specifically

1803
01:00:33,721 --> 01:00:34,354
growing plant. Remember the

1804
01:00:34,354 --> 01:00:34,989
excitement showed when he

1805
01:00:34,989 --> 01:00:36,724
realized he could make a

1806
01:00:36,724 --> 01:00:38,758
living installing raised beds,

1807
01:00:38,758 --> 01:00:39,460
notable landscaping for his

1808
01:00:39,460 --> 01:00:42,128
neighbors. I watched him find

1809
01:00:42,128 --> 01:00:42,797
peace in the garden and I

1810
01:00:42,797 --> 01:00:43,464
watched him take pride and

1811
01:00:43,464 --> 01:00:44,732
feeding his family and his

1812
01:00:44,732 --> 01:00:46,732
community, something it.

1813
01:00:49,236 --> 01:00:50,938
Grown. And so. That young man

1814
01:00:50,938 --> 01:00:51,571
is what many of young men and

1815
01:00:51,571 --> 01:00:52,840
people encountered while

1816
01:00:52,840 --> 01:00:54,341
teaching for Duval County

1817
01:00:54,341 --> 01:00:54,975
Public Schools. We found

1818
01:00:54,975 --> 01:00:56,443
something they love to an

1819
01:00:56,443 --> 01:00:57,177
opportunity through

1820
01:00:57,177 --> 01:01:00,177
agriculture. In some ways. His

1821
01:01:00,547 --> 01:01:01,281
story is my story, too. These

1822
01:01:01,281 --> 01:01:03,451
young people are the people in

1823
01:01:03,451 --> 01:01:04,685
here today to advocate for

1824
01:01:04,685 --> 01:01:06,220
Duval County as many

1825
01:01:06,220 --> 01:01:06,920
agricultural education

1826
01:01:06,920 --> 01:01:08,321
programs throughout its high

1827
01:01:08,321 --> 01:01:09,790
schools. And when the students

1828
01:01:09,790 --> 01:01:10,524
graduate, I want them to be up

1829
01:01:10,524 --> 01:01:12,526
to take those skills and build

1830
01:01:12,526 --> 01:01:14,394
careers right here in their

1831
01:01:14,394 --> 01:01:15,950
communities. We have an

1832
01:01:15,950 --> 01:01:15,797
agriculture community here in

1833
01:01:15,797 --> 01:01:18,980
Jacksonville that is already

1834
01:01:18,980 --> 01:01:19,266
incredible asset to our city.

1835
01:01:19,266 --> 01:01:20,334
Farmers are doing the work.

1836
01:01:20,334 --> 01:01:21,200
Nonprofits are doing the work

1837
01:01:21,200 --> 01:01:21,902
and community gardeners to

1838
01:01:21,902 --> 01:01:24,302
doing the work. Small

1839
01:01:24,605 --> 01:01:25,406
businesses are as well and

1840
01:01:25,406 --> 01:01:26,106
people from across the country

1841
01:01:26,106 --> 01:01:27,608
are starting to pay attention

1842
01:01:27,608 --> 01:01:29,443
to what we're doing here in

1843
01:01:29,443 --> 01:01:30,110
the city. We need our city

1844
01:01:30,110 --> 01:01:32,446
government to let us do our

1845
01:01:32,446 --> 01:01:33,147
thing above court. Allow us to

1846
01:01:33,147 --> 01:01:35,783
feed the homeless, allows to

1847
01:01:35,783 --> 01:01:36,450
grow peace within our

1848
01:01:36,450 --> 01:01:38,685
communities. Alas, to pass

1849
01:01:38,685 --> 01:01:40,153
down generational knowledge,

1850
01:01:40,153 --> 01:01:40,821
our young people to turn the

1851
01:01:40,821 --> 01:01:42,390
skills they've learned into

1852
01:01:42,390 --> 01:01:44,425
businesses careers. This is

1853
01:01:44,425 --> 01:01:46,260
more about the growing This is

1854
01:01:46,260 --> 01:01:48,260
about creating opportunities

1855
01:01:48,663 --> 01:01:50,498
giving young people a place to

1856
01:01:50,498 --> 01:01:51,650
belong. It's about building

1857
01:01:51,650 --> 01:01:51,699
relationships between

1858
01:01:51,699 --> 01:01:52,499
neighbors and it's about

1859
01:01:52,499 --> 01:01:54,669
finding common ground at a

1860
01:01:54,669 --> 01:01:56,571
time when that seems

1861
01:01:56,571 --> 01:01:57,404
impossible. The Bible says

1862
01:01:57,404 --> 01:01:58,606
Love thy neighbor. We farmers

1863
01:01:58,606 --> 01:01:59,840
and gardeners. We love our

1864
01:01:59,840 --> 01:02:01,800
communities. Let it spread

1865
01:02:01,800 --> 01:02:03,577
that love. Please vote for the

19th at 10:15am, to discuss

1871
01:02:11,786 --> 01:02:12,486
how we can make neighborhood

1872
01:02:12,486 --> 01:02:13,187
friendly community and market

1873
01:02:13,187 --> 01:02:15,256
gardens permits right? Thank

1874
01:02:15,256 --> 01:02:18,856
you. Right. Thank you. Had a

1875
01:02:24,732 --> 01:02:25,432
son, Patrick. Good evening

1876
01:02:25,432 --> 01:02:26,100
City Council members. My name

1877
01:02:26,100 --> 01:02:28,836
is out of some. Patrick. My

1878
01:02:28,836 --> 01:02:29,903
address is on file.

1879
01:02:29,903 --> 01:02:30,605
>> This evening, I have a few

1880
01:02:30,605 --> 01:02:34,205
things to mention salt. Go to

1881
01:02:34,808 --> 01:02:35,509
them. Quick. Cleat number one,

1882
01:02:35,509 --> 01:02:39,109
I still oppose the mega jail

1883
01:02:39,113 --> 01:02:39,847
and the big government

1884
01:02:39,847 --> 01:02:41,215
spending associated with this.

1885
01:02:41,215 --> 01:02:41,915
We don't need this. This is

1886
01:02:41,915 --> 01:02:44,419
going to burden taxpayers but

1887
01:02:44,419 --> 01:02:45,119
decades of debt. We would like

1888
01:02:45,119 --> 01:02:48,719
an update on that before the

1889
01:02:49,230 --> 01:02:51,250
end of the year. Let's expand

1890
01:02:51,250 --> 01:02:52,930
our mental health diversion

1891
01:02:52,930 --> 01:02:52,660
programs, not build bigger

1892
01:02:52,660 --> 01:02:54,660
state incarceration,

1893
01:02:56,497 --> 01:02:57,131
infrastructure. Free market

1894
01:02:57,131 --> 01:02:59,133
dynamics, not tax dollars

1895
01:02:59,133 --> 01:03:00,935
should drive development. We

1896
01:03:00,935 --> 01:03:01,869
shouldn't be picking winners

1897
01:03:01,869 --> 01:03:04,269
and losers. Using taxpayer

1898
01:03:04,705 --> 01:03:05,573
money is corporate welfare.

1899
01:03:05,573 --> 01:03:06,206
Lest we forget, we do have

1900
01:03:06,206 --> 01:03:08,606
that pending property tax

1901
01:03:09,811 --> 01:03:11,812
referendum. Let's fix the

1902
01:03:11,812 --> 01:03:13,648
housing supply shortage by

1903
01:03:13,648 --> 01:03:14,416
remove rent removing all these

1904
01:03:14,416 --> 01:03:15,830
government bottlenecks. But

1905
01:03:15,830 --> 01:03:16,951
simplify some of the zoning

1906
01:03:16,951 --> 01:03:18,185
codes and empower property

1907
01:03:18,185 --> 01:03:21,890
owners to get creative and

1908
01:03:21,890 --> 01:03:22,190
build more attainable housing

1909
01:03:22,190 --> 01:03:25,190
to use duplexes Triplexes and

1910
01:03:27,462 --> 01:03:28,563
others. Let's sell off

1911
01:03:28,563 --> 01:03:29,597
blighted city-owned properties

1912
01:03:29,597 --> 01:03:31,332
directly to local residents as

1913
01:03:31,332 --> 01:03:33,435
part of public. Private

1914
01:03:33,435 --> 01:03:34,602
partnerships with workforce

1915
01:03:34,602 --> 01:03:35,336
development who will then

1916
01:03:35,336 --> 01:03:38,936
restore them and put them back

1917
01:03:39,107 --> 01:03:40,700
on the tax rolls. We do need

1918
01:03:40,700 --> 01:03:42,700
absolutely strict compliance

1919
01:03:42,276 --> 01:03:43,100
with public records. Laws. We

1920
01:03:43,100 --> 01:03:46,100
need to codify or neighborhood

1921
01:03:47,315 --> 01:03:47,915
Bill of rights and keep our

1922
01:03:47,915 --> 01:03:48,516
local governments small

1923
01:03:48,516 --> 01:03:50,916
accountable and out of

1924
01:03:52,620 --> 01:03:55,200
everyone's personal lives. As

1925
01:03:55,156 --> 01:03:55,823
far as flock cameras and these

1926
01:03:55,823 --> 01:03:58,223
drone as first responders,

1927
01:03:59,561 --> 01:04:02,430
that jso is using. We need to

1928
01:04:02,430 --> 01:04:03,497
be keeping tabs on exactly how

1929
01:04:03,497 --> 01:04:05,433
we keep track of these drones.

1930
01:04:05,433 --> 01:04:07,601
How are they notated in police

1931
01:04:07,601 --> 01:04:08,570
reports and how do we hold jso

1932
01:04:08,570 --> 01:04:10,970
accountable and ensure privacy

1933
01:04:12,440 --> 01:04:13,207
is not violated? Ban flock

1934
01:04:13,207 --> 01:04:15,607
cameras. Let's cancel these

1935
01:04:16,611 --> 01:04:17,279
contracts as soon as possible.

1936
01:04:17,279 --> 01:04:19,647
And also I support the free

1937
01:04:19,647 --> 01:04:21,583
garden at thank you so much.

1938
01:04:21,583 --> 01:04:22,250
>> As Patrick Dr, Johnson had

1939
01:04:22,250 --> 01:04:23,952
requested to speak with you

1940
01:04:23,952 --> 01:04:27,552
and the green room. Our next

1941
01:04:34,595 --> 01:04:35,262
speaker is Robert Stafford. My

1942
01:04:35,262 --> 01:04:38,262
name is Robert Stafford by

1943
01:04:38,500 --> 01:04:39,601
addresses on file. I attended

1944
01:04:39,601 --> 01:04:42,601
the Mares town hall meeting

1945
01:04:45,406 --> 01:04:47,308
last week. We've all seen high

1946
01:04:47,308 --> 01:04:49,143
school. I'm certified in

1947
01:04:49,143 --> 01:04:50,879
federal and uniform federal

1948
01:04:50,879 --> 01:04:51,446
Accessibility standards. The

1949
01:04:51,446 --> 01:04:53,446
federal government's

1950
01:04:54,282 --> 01:04:56,518
equivalent of the Americans

1951
01:04:56,518 --> 01:04:57,652
with Disability Disabilities

1952
01:04:57,652 --> 01:04:58,286
Act. So when I enter a

1953
01:04:58,286 --> 01:05:00,421
building that I'm kind of

1954
01:05:00,421 --> 01:05:02,821
conscious of. Disa civil

1955
01:05:03,658 --> 01:05:07,295
rouse. And I was as I was

1956
01:05:07,295 --> 01:05:07,895
sitting there, I kept saying.

1957
01:05:07,895 --> 01:05:10,295
The mayor staff squeeze

1958
01:05:12,300 --> 01:05:12,834
between. The ball and and

1959
01:05:12,834 --> 01:05:15,234
seats take seats in

1960
01:05:17,772 --> 01:05:18,673
auditorium. And started

1961
01:05:18,673 --> 01:05:19,408
looking more in a row llamas

1962
01:05:19,408 --> 01:05:20,375
on. And although the roads are

1963
01:05:20,375 --> 01:05:21,420
called to the upper tier.

1964
01:05:21,420 --> 01:05:23,911
Well, right up against the

1965
01:05:23,911 --> 01:05:26,470
wall. Right up against the

1966
01:05:26,470 --> 01:05:26,715
wall. You know, so I'm

1967
01:05:26,715 --> 01:05:27,782
thinking well, as should be

1968
01:05:27,782 --> 01:05:30,182
least 36 inches of space

1969
01:05:30,986 --> 01:05:31,687
between those seats in the

1970
01:05:31,687 --> 01:05:33,880
wall. A look around. They're

1971
01:05:33,880 --> 01:05:36,880
so simple. Things and it

1972
01:05:36,910 --> 01:05:36,925
occurred to me that the fire

1973
01:05:36,925 --> 01:05:39,325
marshal does the final

1974
01:05:40,195 --> 01:05:42,595
inspection before. The school

1975
01:05:44,532 --> 01:05:47,869
board is will? Dcps is issued

1976
01:05:47,869 --> 01:05:50,269
a certificate of occupancy.

1977
01:05:52,730 --> 01:05:52,807
Did they fall Krista? A waiver

1978
01:05:52,807 --> 01:05:55,710
to deviate and waiver from the

1979
01:05:55,710 --> 01:05:58,110
standards? This is dangerous.

1980
01:05:58,346 --> 01:05:58,980
Ladies and gentlemen, I've

1981
01:05:58,980 --> 01:06:00,449
never seen this. It butts

1982
01:06:00,449 --> 01:06:02,450
right up against the wall. So

1983
01:06:02,450 --> 01:06:04,319
there's one interests the way

1984
01:06:04,319 --> 01:06:05,853
one way to egress. If there

1985
01:06:05,853 --> 01:06:08,853
those a panic also get

1986
01:06:09,758 --> 01:06:10,626
injured. So we talk about

1987
01:06:10,626 --> 01:06:12,560
student safety student and

1988
01:06:12,560 --> 01:06:15,560
teacher safety. This is. Life

1989
01:06:16,464 --> 01:06:19,134
safety. This is part life

1990
01:06:19,134 --> 01:06:22,303
safety concern. Take a look at

1991
01:06:22,303 --> 01:06:22,904
and take pictures. But I

1992
01:06:22,904 --> 01:06:25,304
notice someone on this

1993
01:06:27,275 --> 01:06:27,976
council. From Mary with

1994
01:06:27,976 --> 01:06:30,545
barcodes. I like That person

1995
01:06:30,545 --> 01:06:31,279
to take a look. You know,

1996
01:06:31,279 --> 01:06:34,279
intend to investigate this all

1997
01:06:34,850 --> 01:06:35,550
reach out to person. This this

1998
01:06:35,550 --> 01:06:37,652
should be looked at I feel if

1999
01:06:37,652 --> 01:06:38,486
you explain it to me, I'll try

2000
01:06:38,486 --> 01:06:39,688
to understand what they were

2001
01:06:39,688 --> 01:06:40,856
granted a certificate of

2002
01:06:40,856 --> 01:06:42,257
occupancy and isis but right

2003
01:06:42,257 --> 01:06:45,257
up against the wall. I've

2004
01:06:49,698 --> 01:06:50,899
never pool.

2005
01:06:50,899 --> 01:06:51,633
>> Thank you. Past PRESIDENT

2006
01:06:51,633 --> 01:06:52,300
White would like to see you in

2007
01:06:52,300 --> 01:06:53,100
the green room. He might be

2008
01:06:53,100 --> 01:06:55,370
that guy. That knows a little

2009
01:06:55,370 --> 01:06:55,704
something about the fire code.

2010
01:06:55,704 --> 01:06:58,704
Our next speaker is Denise

2011
01:07:00,976 --> 01:07:03,746
Scott. But Ray Ford. Lets you

2012
01:07:03,746 --> 01:07:06,746
want to switch. Okay. That's

2013
01:07:07,649 --> 01:07:08,316
got.

2014
01:07:08,316 --> 01:07:10,716
>> Good evening, I'm Denise

2015
01:07:13,388 --> 01:07:14,220
Qaeda. My addresses on file.

2016
01:07:14,220 --> 01:07:14,723
As you always say before

2017
01:07:14,723 --> 01:07:15,924
public comments. This is your

2018
01:07:15,924 --> 01:07:17,292
time to listen to the people.

2019
01:07:17,292 --> 01:07:20,892
So we want be minutes back.

2020
01:07:21,964 --> 01:07:22,698
How do we do that? Kids

2021
01:07:22,698 --> 01:07:24,333
alliance? I see a vote on that

2022
01:07:24,333 --> 01:07:26,135
over 50 million dollars to

2023
01:07:26,135 --> 01:07:26,869
that organization. I'm just

2024
01:07:26,869 --> 01:07:27,903
curious how many folks on this

2025
01:07:27,903 --> 01:07:29,505
council will benefit from that

2026
01:07:29,505 --> 01:07:32,505
old just because you abstain,

2027
01:07:34,430 --> 01:07:35,177
us still not right. City

2028
01:07:35,177 --> 01:07:35,878
council assay that the

2029
01:07:35,878 --> 01:07:38,878
auditors report stated that j

2030
01:07:41,116 --> 01:07:41,850
e a those large commercial

2031
01:07:41,850 --> 01:07:44,486
companies that they've built a

2032
01:07:44,486 --> 01:07:45,187
for 2 decades. That's

2033
01:07:45,187 --> 01:07:47,587
55 million dollars. Guys come

2034
01:07:50,793 --> 01:07:51,860
on. As I said before, when we

2035
01:07:51,860 --> 01:07:52,561
as the people when we don't

2036
01:07:52,561 --> 01:07:55,798
have enough money to pay, I'm

2037
01:07:55,798 --> 01:07:56,465
Jay a bill we can request

2038
01:07:56,465 --> 01:07:58,865
payment arrangement and I'm

2039
01:07:59,768 --> 01:08:00,603
glad of that. Guess what?

2040
01:08:00,603 --> 01:08:01,337
That's what they should do

2041
01:08:01,337 --> 01:08:04,937
because if we don't make bill,

2042
01:08:05,174 --> 01:08:06,740
they disconnect services. You

2043
01:08:06,740 --> 01:08:06,775
disconnecting these big

2044
01:08:06,775 --> 01:08:08,644
companies service. That's not

2045
01:08:08,644 --> 01:08:10,512
fair to to the people,

2046
01:08:10,512 --> 01:08:12,714
especially since you decided

2047
01:08:12,714 --> 01:08:13,415
since they decided on JUNE

2048
01:08:13,415 --> 01:08:15,283
30th to increase that rates.

2049
01:08:15,283 --> 01:08:15,884
That's not right. This

2050
01:08:15,884 --> 01:08:18,884
supposed to be a public

2051
01:08:19,121 --> 01:08:21,123
utility. We need to make that

2052
01:08:21,123 --> 01:08:22,925
happen. Let's talk about these

2053
01:08:22,925 --> 01:08:25,260
flock cameras on the license

2054
01:08:25,260 --> 01:08:26,280
plate readers. Learned that

2055
01:08:26,280 --> 01:08:28,830
when we're in public that

2056
01:08:28,830 --> 01:08:30,499
there is no expectation of

2057
01:08:30,499 --> 01:08:31,233
privacy. However, why do the

2058
01:08:31,233 --> 01:08:33,236
innocent have to all the stuff

2059
01:08:33,236 --> 01:08:33,936
of information have to be

2060
01:08:33,936 --> 01:08:36,936
stored just because we passed

2061
01:08:38,307 --> 01:08:40,109
by certain street. How long

2062
01:08:40,109 --> 01:08:42,411
does this information stolen?

2063
01:08:42,411 --> 01:08:43,713
It and also found out that

2064
01:08:43,713 --> 01:08:46,713
it's $114,000 a year. I'm not

2065
01:08:47,650 --> 01:08:48,384
clear, but it's fan for that.

2066
01:08:48,384 --> 01:08:50,386
The city does that come out to

2067
01:08:50,386 --> 01:08:53,386
jso is budget. Speaking about

2068
01:08:56,191 --> 01:08:57,326
that share. See that You all

2069
01:08:57,326 --> 01:08:59,726
have decided to spend $750,000

2070
01:09:01,396 --> 01:09:02,130
for consulting that they can

2071
01:09:02,130 --> 01:09:05,834
tell you all aware best to put

2072
01:09:05,834 --> 01:09:06,568
the jail in our city, that

2073
01:09:06,568 --> 01:09:07,637
companies from Miami. Where do

2074
01:09:07,637 --> 01:09:09,605
they know what we want? The

2075
01:09:09,605 --> 01:09:10,273
jail? You mean to tell me

2076
01:09:10,273 --> 01:09:12,673
there's not one consulting

2077
01:09:13,709 --> 01:09:14,677
firm in this city that you all

2078
01:09:14,677 --> 01:09:15,544
can pay to take care of it?

2079
01:09:15,544 --> 01:09:17,613
Because do they know that the

2080
01:09:17,613 --> 01:09:19,482
people don't want this jail in

2081
01:09:19,482 --> 01:09:20,149
certain neighborhoods? That's

2082
01:09:20,149 --> 01:09:22,418
not fair. Just because you

2083
01:09:22,418 --> 01:09:23,452
have the just because

2084
01:09:23,452 --> 01:09:24,870
negotiated that down. From one

2085
01:09:24,870 --> 01:09:26,870
point, something million

2086
01:09:26,723 --> 01:09:27,356
dollars to 7.50 That's still

2087
01:09:27,356 --> 01:09:28,570
not right. I'm sure that

2088
01:09:28,570 --> 01:09:29,292
someone in the city that can

2089
01:09:29,292 --> 01:09:31,692
do that. Thank you.

2090
01:09:33,429 --> 01:09:35,970
>> Thank u next. We have Trey

2091
01:09:35,970 --> 01:09:35,733
Ford and our next 5 after Trey

2092
01:09:35,733 --> 01:09:38,733
will be Casey Jones Roxy

2093
01:09:41,700 --> 01:09:41,804
McLeod. Hardison.

2094
01:09:41,804 --> 01:09:44,204
>> William Barker and Jennifer

2095
01:09:50,980 --> 01:09:52,314
Kelly. MR. Port, thank you.

2096
01:09:52,314 --> 01:09:54,984
Trey Ford representing do also

2097
01:09:54,984 --> 01:09:57,200
on the water Conservation

2098
01:09:57,200 --> 01:09:57,920
addresses on file. Also

2099
01:09:57,920 --> 01:09:58,587
representing Florida Fish Prep

2100
01:09:58,587 --> 01:10:00,456
Rico, which is a chamber of

2101
01:10:00,456 --> 01:10:01,557
commerce for gardeners and

2102
01:10:01,557 --> 01:10:02,258
growers.

2103
01:10:02,258 --> 01:10:02,992
>> And I was on the steering

2104
01:10:02,992 --> 01:10:04,260
committee for the Dew Off Food

2105
01:10:04,260 --> 01:10:06,950
Policy Council. So want to add

2106
01:10:06,950 --> 01:10:08,297
some perspective by now.

2107
01:10:08,297 --> 01:10:08,998
Pretty much everybody should

2108
01:10:08,998 --> 01:10:10,666
know that it's permissible to

2109
01:10:10,666 --> 01:10:12,101
grow your own food and share

2110
01:10:12,101 --> 01:10:12,801
with neighbors. We want to be

2111
01:10:12,801 --> 01:10:15,400
cautious about the word farm

2112
01:10:15,400 --> 01:10:15,705
when we drafted the the

2113
01:10:15,705 --> 01:10:17,540
language because it can carry

2114
01:10:17,540 --> 01:10:18,440
some con the connotation about

2115
01:10:18,440 --> 01:10:21,277
livestock, which can open up a

2116
01:10:21,277 --> 01:10:22,611
whole nother can of worms, pun

2117
01:10:22,611 --> 01:10:24,480
intended. The real

2118
01:10:24,480 --> 01:10:26,216
conversation brewing is about

2119
01:10:26,216 --> 01:10:28,216
urban agriculture market

2120
01:10:28,284 --> 01:10:28,984
gardens and small farms inside

2121
01:10:28,984 --> 01:10:29,552
Jacksonville's neighborhoods.

2122
01:10:29,552 --> 01:10:31,387
I want to expand the

2123
01:10:31,387 --> 01:10:32,355
conversation beyond just

2124
01:10:32,355 --> 01:10:34,223
fable. Zoning towards access

2125
01:10:34,223 --> 01:10:35,959
to funding and other

2126
01:10:35,959 --> 01:10:36,759
resources. Fredy Guarin Act is

2127
01:10:36,759 --> 01:10:38,661
about economic development and

2128
01:10:38,661 --> 01:10:41,640
act and access to quality

2129
01:10:41,640 --> 01:10:42,798
food. We keep seeing recalls

2130
01:10:42,798 --> 01:10:44,200
in the news lettuce recently.

2131
01:10:44,200 --> 01:10:44,967
The jalapenos. And it's a

2132
01:10:44,967 --> 01:10:45,668
reminder of how fragile our

2133
01:10:45,668 --> 01:10:48,668
reliance on the national food

2134
01:10:48,905 --> 01:10:49,639
supply really is. As we

2135
01:10:49,639 --> 01:10:52,390
approach an official ordinance

2136
01:10:52,541 --> 01:10:53,409
on urban agriculture. I ask

2137
01:10:53,409 --> 01:10:55,278
you to consider programs that

2138
01:10:55,278 --> 01:10:56,813
encourage citizens to start

2139
01:10:56,813 --> 01:10:57,547
businesses that can start by

2140
01:10:57,547 --> 01:10:59,547
directing city resources

2141
01:10:59,615 --> 01:11:01,684
toward uf Ifas Extension

2142
01:11:01,684 --> 01:11:02,452
office and refunding the

2143
01:11:02,452 --> 01:11:03,486
Duval. So the water

2144
01:11:03,486 --> 01:11:04,220
Conservation District, which

2145
01:11:04,220 --> 01:11:04,887
host to start farming, mentor

2146
01:11:04,887 --> 01:11:08,224
ship, which I was a part of

2147
01:11:08,224 --> 01:11:09,659
the 2021 we've seen filmmakers

2148
01:11:09,659 --> 01:11:11,659
and artists received $10,000

2149
01:11:12,328 --> 01:11:13,630
stipends, which I support. And

2150
01:11:13,630 --> 01:11:14,898
I'd ask that you imagine that

2151
01:11:14,898 --> 01:11:15,632
same kind of investment

2152
01:11:15,632 --> 01:11:16,266
towards direct towards local

2153
01:11:16,266 --> 01:11:18,266
growers and agribusiness

2154
01:11:18,768 --> 01:11:19,502
owners. Honorable members of

2155
01:11:19,502 --> 01:11:22,502
the council, which imagine how

2156
01:11:23,272 --> 01:11:24,600
good can get Jacksonville were

2157
01:11:24,600 --> 01:11:26,376
able to gain real independence

2158
01:11:26,376 --> 01:11:27,143
from the federal food system

2159
01:11:27,143 --> 01:11:27,844
through a hole, local

2160
01:11:27,844 --> 01:11:29,844
gardeners, farmers and

2161
01:11:30,446 --> 01:11:30,746
agribusiness owners. Thank

2162
01:11:30,746 --> 01:11:32,746
you.

2163
01:11:42,291 --> 01:11:44,691
>> Thank u Casey Jones.

2164
01:11:46,863 --> 01:11:49,799
>> How you Casey 7 to 5 for

2165
01:11:49,799 --> 01:11:52,199
street, South Jacks Beach.

2166
01:11:53,360 --> 01:11:56,360
Hear about the flock cameras

2167
01:11:56,506 --> 01:11:57,940
and he does on the agenda.

2168
01:11:57,940 --> 01:12:00,343
Thanks, Tom. This needs to be

2169
01:12:00,343 --> 01:12:03,914
voted on. I I think both sides

2170
01:12:03,914 --> 01:12:06,914
can vote. Book slowly becoming

2171
01:12:08,551 --> 01:12:10,319
a police state. I I think he

2172
01:12:10,319 --> 01:12:13,523
should be in and in this next

2173
01:12:13,523 --> 01:12:14,157
Thomas voted on because, you

2174
01:12:14,157 --> 01:12:17,157
know, it's called the 4th

2175
01:12:18,561 --> 01:12:22,161
Amendment. And a half. It is

2176
01:12:23,499 --> 01:12:24,200
amazing. So how many jso?

2177
01:12:24,200 --> 01:12:27,800
Flock cameras are is seen by

2178
01:12:31,307 --> 01:12:32,410
noaa. Over 400. So you leave

2179
01:12:32,410 --> 01:12:33,677
your house. This is not a

2180
01:12:33,677 --> 01:12:36,770
license tag reader. That's

2181
01:12:37,347 --> 01:12:40,947
false. We all know what it's

2182
01:12:48,992 --> 01:12:51,160
called. It's it's it's you're

2183
01:12:51,160 --> 01:12:54,160
getting data tracked on where

2184
01:12:56,566 --> 01:12:59,202
you go. Minute by minute.

2185
01:12:59,202 --> 01:13:02,202
Every camera. That you pass

2186
01:13:06,876 --> 01:13:08,578
by. You're being tracked. Both

2187
01:13:08,578 --> 01:13:09,579
sides unanimously. Next

2188
01:13:09,579 --> 01:13:12,482
meeting or the meeting after

2189
01:13:12,482 --> 01:13:13,182
that. Get rid of these.

2190
01:13:13,182 --> 01:13:15,582
There's already been 2 cities

2191
01:13:16,953 --> 01:13:17,588
in the state of Florida.

2192
01:13:17,588 --> 01:13:19,356
>> The hole I'm going I'm

2193
01:13:19,356 --> 01:13:21,756
going Tallahassee. The whole

2194
01:13:22,250 --> 01:13:24,460
state needs to get real. Let's

2195
01:13:24,460 --> 01:13:28,600
don't leave it up. The city.

2196
01:13:30,967 --> 01:13:31,568
The whole state. We just had a

2197
01:13:31,568 --> 01:13:33,568
250 anniversary. Happy

2198
01:13:36,540 --> 01:13:38,940
birthday. And where slowly

2199
01:13:39,742 --> 01:13:42,546
becoming a police state. It's

2200
01:13:42,546 --> 01:13:46,146
scary. Think about it. It is

2201
01:13:48,485 --> 01:13:51,221
so scary. Over 400 cameras, a

2202
01:13:51,221 --> 01:13:54,791
recording you. And it's not a

2203
01:13:54,791 --> 01:13:57,791
license tag plate reader. It

2204
01:13:57,995 --> 01:14:00,995
said data. Minute by minute

2205
01:14:06,103 --> 01:14:07,400
where you're going. This year.

2206
01:14:07,400 --> 01:14:09,406
I want to know why the sitting

2207
01:14:09,406 --> 01:14:11,541
on the agenda tonight. 2

2208
01:14:11,541 --> 01:14:13,941
cities have already banned.

2209
01:14:14,644 --> 01:14:15,678
Right. Thank you, sir.

2210
01:14:15,678 --> 01:14:18,482
>> It's not enough time. Thank

2211
01:14:18,482 --> 01:14:19,416
you. Our next speaker will be

2212
01:14:19,416 --> 01:14:20,117
Roxy McLeod and Councilmember

2213
01:14:20,117 --> 01:14:23,117
for District 7 would like to

2214
01:14:27,230 --> 01:14:27,791
see you in the green room.

2215
01:14:27,791 --> 01:14:30,194
>> It is honor once again to

2216
01:14:30,194 --> 01:14:32,830
be here before you all. Thank

2217
01:14:32,830 --> 01:14:33,530
you for letting me come and

2218
01:14:33,530 --> 01:14:36,530
talk to. I'm Roxanne McLeod.

2219
01:14:36,633 --> 01:14:39,336
My address is on file. I

2220
01:14:39,336 --> 01:14:41,104
probably live in District 10.

2221
01:14:41,104 --> 01:14:45,304
And I'm even a member of the

2222
01:14:45,476 --> 01:14:47,544
cpac in Northwest and I'm here

2223
01:14:47,544 --> 01:14:49,346
representing common Ground

2224
01:14:49,346 --> 01:14:50,314
Community Garden, which is

2225
01:14:50,314 --> 01:14:52,650
located in Panama Park

2226
01:14:52,650 --> 01:14:53,417
neighborhood. It's one of our

2227
01:14:53,417 --> 01:14:55,817
larger neighborhoods, but I

2228
01:14:57,154 --> 01:14:58,880
believe that is the only.

2229
01:14:58,880 --> 01:15:01,880
Garden that there isn't that

2230
01:15:01,925 --> 01:15:03,694
whole neighborhood, which is a

2231
01:15:03,694 --> 01:15:06,694
food desert and you MAY

2232
01:15:06,764 --> 01:15:07,498
already know this, but done my

2233
01:15:07,498 --> 01:15:09,566
research and there are way too

2234
01:15:09,566 --> 01:15:10,568
many food deserts in our city.

2235
01:15:10,568 --> 01:15:14,168
So, you know, good and well,

2236
01:15:14,472 --> 01:15:16,773
but I'm here and representing

2237
01:15:16,773 --> 01:15:20,973
and let you know that I stand

2238
01:15:21,278 --> 01:15:22,412
for the freedom to Garden Act,

2239
01:15:22,412 --> 01:15:26,120

2240
01:15:26,383 --> 01:15:27,351

2242
01:15:29,954 --> 01:15:31,555
or 7 inviting you to next

2243
01:15:31,555 --> 01:15:33,156
Wednesday. That's not

2244
01:15:33,156 --> 01:15:33,758
tomorrow. I usually wear my

2245
01:15:33,758 --> 01:15:36,158
farmer's hat today. I'm

2246
01:15:37,610 --> 01:15:38,162
wearing my teacher hat. Not

2247
01:15:38,162 --> 01:15:39,196
tomorrow. But look at your

2248
01:15:39,196 --> 01:15:41,632
calendar and put it on your

2249
01:15:41,632 --> 01:15:43,330
calendar for next Wednesday.

2250
01:15:43,330 --> 01:15:45,535
The 19th we'll be in the Dawn

2251
01:15:45,535 --> 01:15:46,703
Davis room. You know where

2252
01:15:46,703 --> 01:15:49,807
that is. And at 10, 15 in the

2253
01:15:49,807 --> 01:15:51,208
morning, all be there. And I'm

2254
01:15:51,208 --> 01:15:52,743
looking for you to be there.

2255
01:15:52,743 --> 01:15:55,312
We'll talk a little bit more

2256
01:15:55,312 --> 01:15:57,470
details about that freedom to

2257
01:15:57,470 --> 01:15:57,715
Garden Act. I know there's

2258
01:15:57,715 --> 01:16:01,315
more. I'm sure I'm going to

2259
01:16:03,530 --> 01:16:04,722
say let me see this morning

2260
01:16:04,722 --> 01:16:07,391
when I was wearing the garden

2261
01:16:07,391 --> 01:16:10,991
hat, I loved what MISTER Has

2262
01:16:11,294 --> 01:16:11,996
been said. Earlier. He was

2263
01:16:11,996 --> 01:16:13,297
talking about the

2264
01:16:13,297 --> 01:16:15,297
transformation of someone.

2265
01:16:17,235 --> 01:16:19,370
Why? Because of the the

2266
01:16:19,370 --> 01:16:20,538
environment that being in a

2267
01:16:20,538 --> 01:16:23,273
garden does for love it when

2268
01:16:23,273 --> 01:16:25,142
there's from a thing or now it

2269
01:16:25,142 --> 01:16:26,777
does something to you. It gave

2270
01:16:26,777 --> 01:16:27,678
that man that young man piece

2271
01:16:27,678 --> 01:16:30,678
in it helped transform his

2272
01:16:30,881 --> 01:16:33,160
life this morning I was in the

2273
01:16:33,160 --> 01:16:34,786
garden trying to learn the new

2274
01:16:34,786 --> 01:16:35,486
bus schedule for the kids that

2275
01:16:35,486 --> 01:16:36,153
come and catch the bus on the

2276
01:16:36,153 --> 01:16:37,455
corner where the garden is.

2277
01:16:37,455 --> 01:16:39,756
They love to come to the

2278
01:16:39,756 --> 01:16:41,325
garden. An old neighbor, old

2279
01:16:41,325 --> 01:16:42,459
man walking. He stopped me. He

2280
01:16:42,459 --> 01:16:45,459
said, you know what you're

2281
01:16:45,663 --> 01:16:47,398
doing? And I said I'm having

2282
01:16:47,398 --> 01:16:49,466
fun. I'm in the garden. He

2283
01:16:49,466 --> 01:16:52,903
goes No. You are creating a

2284
01:16:52,903 --> 01:16:54,238
safe place for these children.

2285
01:16:54,238 --> 01:16:55,239
And he looked around and you

2286
01:16:55,239 --> 01:16:58,239
know what he's talking about.

2287
01:16:59,310 --> 01:17:00,711
It's that part sorry. Thank

2288
01:17:00,711 --> 01:17:01,411
y'all. Come on in saying that

2289
01:17:01,411 --> 01:17:05,611
you are ate it next is Micah

2290
01:17:08,419 --> 01:17:10,819
Hardison. Good afternoon. My

2291
01:17:11,456 --> 01:17:14,125
name is make a partisan car. I

2292
01:17:14,125 --> 01:17:15,193
am a local beekeeper grow. Our

2293
01:17:15,193 --> 01:17:15,860
food entrepreneur, educator

2294
01:17:15,860 --> 01:17:17,829
and I am in support of the

2295
01:17:17,829 --> 01:17:18,496
free to Garden Act.

2296
01:17:18,496 --> 01:17:19,196
>> I just want to bring to

2297
01:17:19,196 --> 01:17:22,796
state your address so that it

2298
01:17:24,569 --> 01:17:25,203
sometime. Yes, I'm sorry. It's

2299
01:17:25,203 --> 01:17:25,903
1, 3, 5, 3, 4, or Admiral

2300
01:17:25,903 --> 01:17:27,104
Court Jacksonville, Florida,

2301
01:17:27,104 --> 01:17:28,973
3, 2, 2, 1, 8, I just want to

2302
01:17:28,973 --> 01:17:31,373
bring to the council's

2303
01:17:32,910 --> 01:17:33,610
attention. The recent focus on

2304
01:17:33,610 --> 01:17:35,713
our first comprehensive food

2305
01:17:35,713 --> 01:17:37,715
plan. The state of the food

2306
01:17:37,715 --> 01:17:40,170
plan and really how city

2307
01:17:40,170 --> 01:17:41,452
leaders have recognized that

2308
01:17:41,452 --> 01:17:42,530
food access and full

2309
01:17:42,530 --> 01:17:43,788
resilience really are a

2310
01:17:43,788 --> 01:17:45,823
central part of city planning.

2311
01:17:45,823 --> 01:17:46,857
A lot of the food that we have

2312
01:17:46,857 --> 01:17:50,457
probably most of the food that

2313
01:17:50,494 --> 01:17:54,940
we have here travels very long

2314
01:17:54,598 --> 01:17:55,233
and complicated supply chains.

2315
01:17:55,233 --> 01:17:57,167
Hundreds and thousands of

2316
01:17:57,167 --> 01:17:59,567
miles before it reaches

2317
01:18:01,139 --> 01:18:02,940
Jacksonville, a resilient city

2318
01:18:02,940 --> 01:18:03,607
can't. It's only depend

2319
01:18:03,607 --> 01:18:06,700
exclusively on food. That's

2320
01:18:07,545 --> 01:18:08,579
from somewhere else

2321
01:18:08,579 --> 01:18:09,347
transported again, lots of

2322
01:18:09,347 --> 01:18:12,216
miles and delivered to a

2323
01:18:12,216 --> 01:18:13,117
limited number of outlets. We

2324
01:18:13,117 --> 01:18:15,787
also have to build local

2325
01:18:15,787 --> 01:18:16,754
capacity to feed ourselves the

2326
01:18:16,754 --> 01:18:17,422
free to Garden Act is a

2327
01:18:17,422 --> 01:18:19,822
practical step toward that

2328
01:18:20,625 --> 01:18:22,493
goal. It allows more food to

2329
01:18:22,493 --> 01:18:24,595
be grown and distributed. And

2330
01:18:24,595 --> 01:18:26,564
so communities where it's

2331
01:18:26,564 --> 01:18:28,466
needed. It also gives

2332
01:18:28,466 --> 01:18:29,133
residents access to fresh or

2333
01:18:29,133 --> 01:18:32,133
food from growers that they

2334
01:18:33,710 --> 01:18:34,372
know and trust. While also

2335
01:18:34,372 --> 01:18:35,106
allowing greater transparency

2336
01:18:35,106 --> 01:18:38,106
about how that food is

2337
01:18:38,376 --> 01:18:41,376
produced. Thank you. Thank u

2338
01:18:53,525 --> 01:18:55,925
next of William Parker.

2339
01:18:56,360 --> 01:18:57,195
Good

2340
01:18:57,195 --> 01:18:57,862
afternoon Council members. My

2341
01:18:57,862 --> 01:18:58,963
name is William Barker. My

2342
01:18:58,963 --> 01:19:00,963
addresses on file.

2343
01:19:02,733 --> 01:19:05,733
>> I am a could local

2344
01:19:05,971 --> 01:19:07,572
entrepreneur and the community

2345
01:19:07,572 --> 01:19:09,708
urban farmer. And I was just

2346
01:19:09,708 --> 01:19:12,610
here to support the free 2,

2347
01:19:12,610 --> 01:19:13,244
the free to guard that. And I

2348
01:19:13,244 --> 01:19:16,514
just want to take time to

2349
01:19:16,514 --> 01:19:18,820
paint a picture of. Wise and

2350
01:19:18,820 --> 01:19:18,749
important coming from and to

2351
01:19:18,749 --> 01:19:21,749
serve community and a local

2352
01:19:22,987 --> 01:19:23,654
food as it myself. I wanted to

2353
01:19:23,654 --> 01:19:26,570
bring you guys attention to

2354
01:19:26,570 --> 01:19:28,326
the vast possibilities that

2355
01:19:28,326 --> 01:19:30,326
urban development around

2356
01:19:30,629 --> 01:19:31,296
community Garden brings to the

2357
01:19:31,296 --> 01:19:33,665
community is more than just

2358
01:19:33,665 --> 01:19:37,265
being able to grow full. But

2359
01:19:38,170 --> 01:19:39,237
it offers education. And if we

2360
01:19:39,237 --> 01:19:40,939
can expand the use of these

2361
01:19:40,939 --> 01:19:43,339
urban farms into classroom

2362
01:19:44,609 --> 01:19:47,900
settings. Areas that we

2363
01:19:47,780 --> 01:19:48,981
continue to push workforce

2364
01:19:48,981 --> 01:19:50,981
development, teaching students

2365
01:19:51,850 --> 01:19:52,751
that are coming from these

2366
01:19:52,751 --> 01:19:53,852
underserved communities,

2367
01:19:53,852 --> 01:19:54,586
skills that are valuable that

2368
01:19:54,586 --> 01:19:55,754
they can learn in their own

2369
01:19:55,754 --> 01:19:57,789
communities outside of the

2370
01:19:57,789 --> 01:19:59,825
school outside of the

2371
01:19:59,825 --> 01:20:02,225
independent home in these

2372
01:20:02,761 --> 01:20:03,428
areas. It off of and

2373
01:20:03,428 --> 01:20:04,162
tremendous results and the

2374
01:20:04,162 --> 01:20:05,963
community and I've seen it

2375
01:20:05,963 --> 01:20:06,965
myself and I know a lot of

2376
01:20:06,965 --> 01:20:09,267
times you guys are not always

2377
01:20:09,267 --> 01:20:11,360
on the ground level and I just

2378
01:20:11,360 --> 01:20:13,104
want you guys to paint a

2379
01:20:13,104 --> 01:20:16,704
picture to see how the zoning

2380
01:20:17,942 --> 01:20:19,100
issues came. Calls problems in

2381
01:20:19,100 --> 01:20:19,711
the community on on a larger

2382
01:20:19,711 --> 01:20:22,247
scale because a lot of towns

2383
01:20:22,247 --> 01:20:24,282
funding is involved. Getting

2384
01:20:24,282 --> 01:20:24,950
custom zoning to do more than

2385
01:20:24,950 --> 01:20:27,853
just Grohl at a farm. If I

2386
01:20:27,853 --> 01:20:29,654
wanted to other amendments to

2387
01:20:29,654 --> 01:20:32,654
the community that will help

2388
01:20:33,458 --> 01:20:34,920
educate students are oust him

2389
01:20:34,920 --> 01:20:34,726
around. Other things like

2390
01:20:34,726 --> 01:20:36,361
engineering being able to

2391
01:20:36,361 --> 01:20:38,764
offer farm stands, being able

2392
01:20:38,764 --> 01:20:39,464
to offer different levels of

2393
01:20:39,464 --> 01:20:41,464
educational training outside

2394
01:20:43,201 --> 01:20:43,835
of just growing full. Removing

2395
01:20:43,835 --> 01:20:46,235
those barriers around the

2396
01:20:47,272 --> 01:20:49,174
zoning would definitely help.

2397
01:20:49,174 --> 01:20:49,875
All 4 of a wider and broader

2398
01:20:49,875 --> 01:20:52,978
reach to what we can offer in

2399
01:20:52,978 --> 01:20:53,679
these underserved communities.

2400
01:20:53,679 --> 01:20:54,379
So going into the free to go

2401
01:20:54,379 --> 01:20:56,447
there, I just wanted to paint

2402
01:20:56,447 --> 01:20:57,416
that picture. So you guys to c

2403
01:20:57,416 --> 01:21:00,752
is more than just growing food

2404
01:21:00,752 --> 01:21:01,653
is being able to offer more to

2405
01:21:01,653 --> 01:21:04,590
the community and the guardian

2406
01:21:04,590 --> 01:21:06,191
be a entryway to offer these

2407
01:21:06,191 --> 01:21:08,193
things and removing those

2408
01:21:08,193 --> 01:21:08,994
barriers will help us do that.

2409
01:21:08,994 --> 01:21:10,963
We understand we do have the

2410
01:21:10,963 --> 01:21:12,397
right to grow and we know we

2411
01:21:12,397 --> 01:21:14,299
can grow, but we want to paint

2412
01:21:14,299 --> 01:21:15,801
a picture that is bigger than

2413
01:21:15,801 --> 01:21:16,602
growing and the impact that it

2414
01:21:16,602 --> 01:21:19,200
will make in underserved

2415
01:21:19,270 --> 01:21:20,706
communities. Thank you. All

2416
01:21:20,706 --> 01:21:21,673
right. Thank you. As Jennifer

01:21:37,189 --> 01:21:37,890
>> Good Evening City Council.

2424
01:21:37,890 --> 01:21:40,492
My name is Jennifer Kelly and

2425
01:21:40,492 --> 01:21:42,628
my address is on file. I'd

2426
01:21:42,628 --> 01:21:45,364
like to begin by saying Shift

2427
01:21:45,364 --> 01:21:47,365
laughed, chef to laughed,

2428
01:21:47,365 --> 01:21:50,335
shift left. What does that

2429
01:21:50,335 --> 01:21:51,403
mean? Business shift left

2430
01:21:51,403 --> 01:21:54,403
means solving a problem as

2431
01:21:55,740 --> 01:21:56,341
early as possible. When

2432
01:21:56,341 --> 01:21:57,900
intervention is simpler and

2433
01:21:57,900 --> 01:21:59,409
less expensive than waiting

2434
01:21:59,511 --> 01:22:02,181
for the problem to become a

2435
01:22:02,181 --> 01:22:03,382
much bigger issue. That's more

2436
01:22:03,382 --> 01:22:03,949
expensive and more difficult

2437
01:22:03,949 --> 01:22:06,949
to manage as it moves

2438
01:22:07,552 --> 01:22:09,952
downstream. This is exactly

2439
01:22:10,122 --> 01:22:11,560
what the trap neuter return

2440
01:22:11,560 --> 01:22:14,560
and accessible spay and neuter

2441
01:22:14,193 --> 01:22:15,260
programs do for Jacksonville.

2442
01:22:15,260 --> 01:22:17,290
When we fund a surgery today,

2443
01:22:17,290 --> 01:22:19,231
we aren't just helping one

2444
01:22:19,231 --> 01:22:20,599
cat. We are preventing future

2445
01:22:20,599 --> 01:22:22,999
letters. We are preventing

2446
01:22:24,337 --> 01:22:25,400
sick animals, injured animals,

2447
01:22:25,400 --> 01:22:28,400
animals that fight and need

2448
01:22:28,374 --> 01:22:29,909
care from entering the system

2449
01:22:29,909 --> 01:22:30,609
and generating animal

2450
01:22:30,609 --> 01:22:31,310
concurrent control calls are

2451
01:22:31,310 --> 01:22:33,245
producing another generation

2452
01:22:33,245 --> 01:22:35,645
of community cats. That's

2453
01:22:37,616 --> 01:22:40,160
what's called shifting left.

2454
01:22:40,619 --> 01:22:42,454
When funding runs out. Re put

2455
01:22:42,454 --> 01:22:43,155
production doesn't stop. The

2456
01:22:43,155 --> 01:22:44,990
alternative is waiting until

2457
01:22:44,990 --> 01:22:47,159
kittens are already born. And

2458
01:22:47,159 --> 01:22:50,620
then asking the animal care

2459
01:22:50,620 --> 01:22:50,962
and protective services, the

2460
01:22:50,962 --> 01:22:52,962
Humane Society, volunteers

2461
01:22:53,598 --> 01:22:55,567
foster homes to deal with the

2462
01:22:55,567 --> 01:22:58,537
consequences. I want to know

2463
01:22:58,537 --> 01:22:59,237
that this issue has a strong

2464
01:22:59,237 --> 01:23:01,340
community response. I started

2465
01:23:01,340 --> 01:23:03,740
the petition that has 591

2466
01:23:04,810 --> 01:23:05,845
signatures as of this meeting.

2467
01:23:05,845 --> 01:23:07,646
Right now. The program has run

2468
01:23:07,646 --> 01:23:11,246
out of funding and the cost

2469
01:23:11,784 --> 01:23:12,885
shifted to $25 per cat for

2470
01:23:12,885 --> 01:23:14,754
many residents and volunteers.

2471
01:23:14,754 --> 01:23:15,620
This out of pocket costs is a

2472
01:23:15,620 --> 01:23:16,355
real barrier and is causing

2473
01:23:16,355 --> 01:23:19,355
fewer people to participate in

2474
01:23:20,292 --> 01:23:21,600
the tnr program. When the cost

2475
01:23:21,600 --> 01:23:24,660
goes up, fewer cats get fixed.

2476
01:23:24,663 --> 01:23:25,497
And the cycle continues. Not

2477
01:23:25,497 --> 01:23:26,131
only does it continue, it

2478
01:23:26,131 --> 01:23:28,531
exponentially grows as a

2479
01:23:29,201 --> 01:23:31,703
problem. Right now the program

2480
01:23:31,703 --> 01:23:33,380
is funded by Duval Cat Fix,

2481
01:23:33,380 --> 01:23:36,380
which is funded by ordinance

2482
01:23:37,643 --> 01:23:38,778
for license fees. Shifting the

2483
01:23:38,778 --> 01:23:39,411
burden to consumers who

2484
01:23:39,411 --> 01:23:42,381
actually take the time to

2485
01:23:42,381 --> 01:23:43,115
register their pets and then

2486
01:23:43,115 --> 01:23:46,115
Rosie's Fund, which is private

2487
01:23:46,452 --> 01:23:48,687
donors kick in. It's not

2488
01:23:48,687 --> 01:23:49,455
enough. So I'm asking the city

2489
01:23:49,455 --> 01:23:51,457
to increase funding for the

2490
01:23:51,457 --> 01:23:54,457
community cat and spay and

2491
01:23:54,626 --> 01:23:56,595
neuter program by 100 to

2492
01:23:56,595 --> 01:23:58,130
$150,000 to provide enough

2493
01:23:58,130 --> 01:24:00,933
resources. I'm not asking you

2494
01:24:00,933 --> 01:24:01,700
to spend more money on cats.

2495
01:24:01,700 --> 01:24:05,300
I'm asking you to be a

2496
01:24:05,738 --> 01:24:06,772
business and to invest earlier

2497
01:24:06,772 --> 01:24:07,506
in the problem, right? Jackson

2498
01:24:07,506 --> 01:24:09,508
now has to fear animal. Thank

2499
01:24:09,508 --> 01:24:10,142
you and please shift.

2500
01:24:10,142 --> 01:24:12,542
>> at your time. Latasha

2501
01:24:17,516 --> 01:24:18,451
Hobbs.

2502
01:24:18,451 --> 01:24:20,352
>> Good evening, everyone. My

2503
01:24:20,352 --> 01:24:22,752
name is Latasha Hobbs

2504
01:24:23,323 --> 01:24:24,791
addresses on file. I would

2505
01:24:24,791 --> 01:24:26,492
also like to take a moment to

2506
01:24:26,492 --> 01:24:28,161
acknowledge Rose Devoe mother

2507
01:24:28,161 --> 01:24:31,761
of Gabriel DeVoe. She is. I'm

2508
01:24:33,232 --> 01:24:35,201
here today. I am here today in

2509
01:24:35,201 --> 01:24:36,302
honor of my forever. Only son

2510
01:24:36,302 --> 01:24:39,302
Maurice Hobbs who was murdered

2511
01:24:39,838 --> 01:24:40,440
in district 2 on JANUARY. 26

2512
01:24:40,440 --> 01:24:42,440
2017, just 2 days after

2513
01:24:43,376 --> 01:24:44,510
celebrating his 18th birthday.

2514
01:24:44,510 --> 01:24:47,510
As of today, it's been 3,484

2515
01:24:48,514 --> 01:24:50,583
days of suffering that I never

2516
01:24:50,583 --> 01:24:52,685
chose and cannot and can never

2517
01:24:52,685 --> 01:24:54,754
undo. I stand before you not

2518
01:24:54,754 --> 01:24:55,988
only as a constituent of

2519
01:24:55,988 --> 01:24:58,724
district 3, but as the mother

2520
01:24:58,724 --> 01:24:59,658
murdered child who has spent

2521
01:24:59,658 --> 01:25:00,360
years living with the

2522
01:25:00,360 --> 01:25:02,661
consequences of violent crime

2523
01:25:02,661 --> 01:25:03,730
and fighting for justice. And

2524
01:25:03,730 --> 01:25:04,230
today I want to talk about

2525
01:25:04,230 --> 01:25:06,230
something that is

2526
01:25:07,400 --> 01:25:08,468
uncomfortable but necessary

2527
01:25:08,468 --> 01:25:09,135
community accountability. We

2528
01:25:09,135 --> 01:25:11,370
talk about gun violence. We

2529
01:25:11,370 --> 01:25:11,871
talk about violent crime. We

2530
01:25:11,871 --> 01:25:13,706
talk about the need for more

2531
01:25:13,706 --> 01:25:15,706
law enforcement, more

2532
01:25:16,776 --> 01:25:17,710
resources and stronger laws

2533
01:25:17,710 --> 01:25:18,444
and those conversations

2534
01:25:18,444 --> 01:25:21,460
matter. But we also have to be

2535
01:25:21,460 --> 01:25:21,881
willing to ask ourselves what

2536
01:25:21,881 --> 01:25:25,481
responsibility do we have as a

2537
01:25:25,885 --> 01:25:26,553
community have when we know

2538
01:25:26,553 --> 01:25:28,388
who was committing violent

2539
01:25:28,388 --> 01:25:30,290
crimes in choose to remain

2540
01:25:30,290 --> 01:25:31,324
silent when someone is

2541
01:25:31,324 --> 01:25:33,324
carrying illegal guns

2542
01:25:33,325 --> 01:25:33,960
committing violent offenses or

2543
01:25:33,960 --> 01:25:35,628
participating in violence

2544
01:25:35,628 --> 01:25:37,430
there often people who know

2545
01:25:37,430 --> 01:25:38,964
something, saw something,

2546
01:25:38,964 --> 01:25:41,634
heard something and yet nobody

2547
01:25:41,634 --> 01:25:43,703
speaks up. That silence has

2548
01:25:43,703 --> 01:25:44,437
consequences. I'm asking those

2549
01:25:44,437 --> 01:25:46,906
who know something to use the

2550
01:25:46,906 --> 01:25:49,410
resources available to report

2551
01:25:49,410 --> 01:25:49,976
information safely and

2552
01:25:49,976 --> 01:25:51,430
anonymously when necessary. We

2553
01:25:51,430 --> 01:25:51,645
cannot demand that law

2554
01:25:51,645 --> 01:25:53,645
enforcement solve every

2555
01:25:54,647 --> 01:25:55,315
violent crime while

2556
01:25:55,315 --> 01:25:55,982
simultaneously withholding

2557
01:25:55,982 --> 01:25:57,917
information that could help

2558
01:25:57,917 --> 01:25:58,951
them solve it. And I would

2559
01:25:58,951 --> 01:25:59,819
like to also acknowledge the

2560
01:25:59,819 --> 01:26:00,520
men and women in law

2561
01:26:00,520 --> 01:26:03,520
enforcement who show up every

2562
01:26:04,490 --> 01:26:05,891
every day. Responding today,

2563
01:26:05,891 --> 01:26:06,593
dangerous situations

2564
01:26:06,593 --> 01:26:08,993
investigating crimes is stand

2565
01:26:09,929 --> 01:26:10,663
with victims in our families.

2566
01:26:10,663 --> 01:26:12,165
They have a difficult job. The

2567
01:26:12,165 --> 01:26:13,900
sheriff's office deserves our

2568
01:26:13,900 --> 01:26:15,869
respect. Our support in our

2569
01:26:15,869 --> 01:26:17,603
partnership. They cannot see

2570
01:26:17,603 --> 01:26:18,270
everything they cannot

2571
01:26:18,270 --> 01:26:20,206
investigate what they don't

2572
01:26:20,206 --> 01:26:22,242
know. Public safety a shared

2573
01:26:22,242 --> 01:26:22,942
responsibility. If you want

2574
01:26:22,942 --> 01:26:23,576
safer neighborhoods, we have

2575
01:26:23,576 --> 01:26:24,511
to build a culture. We're

2576
01:26:24,511 --> 01:26:26,511
protecting innocent lives

2577
01:26:26,512 --> 01:26:27,113
matter. Moore's matters more

2578
01:26:27,113 --> 01:26:28,448
than protecting someone

2579
01:26:28,448 --> 01:26:29,849
committee violence. We have to

2580
01:26:29,849 --> 01:26:31,651
stop confusing. Silence will

2581
01:26:31,651 --> 01:26:33,520
but loyalty. Accountability is

2582
01:26:33,520 --> 01:26:35,388
not retaliation. It's a

2583
01:26:35,388 --> 01:26:36,890
prevention. It is about

2584
01:26:36,890 --> 01:26:37,524
getting law enforcement, the

2585
01:26:37,524 --> 01:26:38,524
information they need before.

2586
01:26:38,524 --> 01:26:40,293
Another mother receives a

2587
01:26:40,293 --> 01:26:41,594
phone call that changes her

2588
01:26:41,594 --> 01:26:42,295
life forever. I know that pain

2589
01:26:42,295 --> 01:26:45,310
personally. I'm the mother of

2590
01:26:45,310 --> 01:26:45,899
a murdered child. Thank you

2591
01:26:45,899 --> 01:26:49,499
for your time. Thank u next

2592
01:26:53,940 --> 01:26:55,274
kept dragging Beloit.

2593
01:26:55,274 --> 01:26:55,842
>> Oh, my gosh. It's me. Hi,

2594
01:26:55,842 --> 01:26:57,477
I'm Brenna Malloy. My

2595
01:26:57,477 --> 01:27:00,213
addresses on file with in. 300

2596
01:27:00,213 --> 01:27:03,813
feet of my house. There are

2597
01:27:03,883 --> 01:27:06,520
about 14 flock cameras. That's

2598
01:27:06,520 --> 01:27:07,286
a lot. I literally cannot

2599
01:27:07,286 --> 01:27:07,921
leave my neighborhood without

2600
01:27:07,921 --> 01:27:08,855
this private corporation

2601
01:27:08,855 --> 01:27:11,855
tracking my every move. I

2602
01:27:12,292 --> 01:27:14,600
don't like it. So I a couple

2603
01:27:14,600 --> 01:27:16,796
of things before you today.

2604
01:27:16,796 --> 01:27:17,730
Actually, this is a list of

2605
01:27:17,730 --> 01:27:20,567
100 cities who have been in a

2606
01:27:20,567 --> 01:27:22,569
agreement with flock or an lpr

2607
01:27:22,569 --> 01:27:23,169
service and have chosen to end

2608
01:27:23,169 --> 01:27:25,605
it. I'm hoping can add

2609
01:27:25,605 --> 01:27:28,500
Jacksonville to that list.

2610
01:27:28,175 --> 01:27:30,243
This is a list of 250 names of

2611
01:27:30,243 --> 01:27:32,450
Jacksonville residents and

2612
01:27:32,450 --> 01:27:32,679
coats. Every single one of

2613
01:27:32,679 --> 01:27:35,790
them have signed petition

2614
01:27:35,810 --> 01:27:35,815
which I am currently running

2615
01:27:35,815 --> 01:27:38,252
to try and remove Alpr is from

2616
01:27:38,252 --> 01:27:39,219
our city completely. We've

2617
01:27:39,219 --> 01:27:39,986
talked a lot about it. I'm

2618
01:27:39,986 --> 01:27:40,687
going to talk a little bit

2619
01:27:40,687 --> 01:27:42,522
about something we don't talk

2620
01:27:42,522 --> 01:27:45,158
about much, which is the Raven

2621
01:27:45,158 --> 01:27:47,558
program. There are 3 Raven

2622
01:27:47,995 --> 01:27:50,395
activated or raven equipped

2623
01:27:51,970 --> 01:27:52,332
cameras within 300 feet of my

2624
01:27:52,332 --> 01:27:54,330
house. Ray, then is the term

2625
01:27:54,330 --> 01:27:56,690
for the one that listens to

2626
01:27:56,690 --> 01:27:57,871
your voice. It listens to

2627
01:27:57,871 --> 01:27:58,538
voices and it it was

2628
01:27:58,538 --> 01:28:00,941
originally rolled out as a

2629
01:28:00,941 --> 01:28:02,941
gunshot recognition software.

2630
01:28:03,770 --> 01:28:03,977
It's really strange how this

2631
01:28:03,977 --> 01:28:05,977
gunshot recognition software

2632
01:28:06,412 --> 01:28:07,800
now also listens for signs of

2633
01:28:07,800 --> 01:28:08,482
human distress. They didn't

2634
01:28:08,482 --> 01:28:12,820
change it at all. It just

2635
01:28:12,552 --> 01:28:13,219
magically gained that ability,

2636
01:28:13,219 --> 01:28:13,953
which means it always have

2637
01:28:13,953 --> 01:28:14,521
that ability switches,

2638
01:28:14,521 --> 01:28:15,855
software around start

2639
01:28:15,855 --> 01:28:18,240
marketing at a different way.

2640
01:28:18,240 --> 01:28:21,624
It was always listening to the

2641
01:28:21,928 --> 01:28:22,662
people talking around it. One

2642
01:28:22,662 --> 01:28:23,463
of the cameras is right on the

2643
01:28:23,463 --> 01:28:26,320
end of Yellow Pine Drive

2644
01:28:26,320 --> 01:28:29,200
Yellow Pine Drive has a raven

2645
01:28:29,200 --> 01:28:31,104
acquit flock camera right next

2646
01:28:31,104 --> 01:28:33,600
to a child's home. There are 3

2647
01:28:33,600 --> 01:28:35,809
children in this home and they

2648
01:28:35,809 --> 01:28:36,543
are being listened to every

2649
01:28:36,543 --> 01:28:40,143
single day that camera did not

2650
01:28:42,182 --> 01:28:43,216
turn off. That turn away.

2651
01:28:43,216 --> 01:28:44,183
We've already had one arrest

2652
01:28:44,183 --> 01:28:44,885
from someone who decided that

2653
01:28:44,885 --> 01:28:49,550
you guys were not going to do

2654
01:28:49,550 --> 01:28:50,623
your jobs and act on removing

2655
01:28:50,623 --> 01:28:51,324
these cameras and so tried to

2656
01:28:51,324 --> 01:28:52,893
do it themselves because they

2657
01:28:52,893 --> 01:28:53,526
felt their First Amendment and

2658
01:28:53,526 --> 01:28:55,926
4th Amendment rights were

2659
01:28:56,396 --> 01:28:59,660
being violated. We are going

2660
01:28:59,660 --> 01:29:01,835
to keep asking you to do this

2661
01:29:01,835 --> 01:29:03,670
again. $144,000 is quite a big

2662
01:29:03,670 --> 01:29:04,504
contract. But what you might

2663
01:29:04,504 --> 01:29:05,171
not know is that every time a

2664
01:29:05,171 --> 01:29:08,171
camera is damaged or comes

2665
01:29:08,241 --> 01:29:11,841
down. We pay flock again. When

2666
01:29:12,179 --> 01:29:13,790
they put up a new one. So

2667
01:29:13,790 --> 01:29:13,780
people are mad. They're gonna

2668
01:29:13,780 --> 01:29:16,780
keep breaking The cost is

2669
01:29:17,510 --> 01:29:18,185
going to get bigger. Let's try

2670
01:29:18,185 --> 01:29:20,354
moving left and stopping it

2671
01:29:20,354 --> 01:29:21,321
before we end up doubling that

2672
01:29:21,321 --> 01:29:23,557
cost because people are going

2673
01:29:23,557 --> 01:29:24,910
to keep throwing rocks at the

2674
01:29:24,910 --> 01:29:24,825
cameras. Guys.

2675
01:29:24,825 --> 01:29:28,425
>> Thank u next. We have Spurr

2676
01:29:38,505 --> 01:29:40,505
old.

2677
01:29:41,441 --> 01:29:44,441
>> my name Valerie Sprawl. I

2678
01:29:44,911 --> 01:29:45,645
am my address is 2.86 to

2679
01:29:45,645 --> 01:29:47,800
Yellow Pine Drive in my lovely

2680
01:29:47,800 --> 01:29:49,480
neighborhood in Arlington. I'm

2681
01:29:52,786 --> 01:29:56,386
with I'm here to talk about

2682
01:29:57,240 --> 01:29:58,893
flock and other Alp ours. I'm

2683
01:29:58,893 --> 01:30:00,461
having a degree in computer

2684
01:30:00,461 --> 01:30:01,261
science. I was surprised just

2685
01:30:01,261 --> 01:30:04,261
how many flock cameras I

2686
01:30:05,132 --> 01:30:07,134
witnessed here in Jax. Because

2687
01:30:07,134 --> 01:30:07,868
it is not just a matter of

2688
01:30:07,868 --> 01:30:10,268
privacy, but national security

2689
01:30:10,370 --> 01:30:12,939
as well. Flock is not a

2690
01:30:12,939 --> 01:30:13,507
governmental organization.

2691
01:30:13,507 --> 01:30:15,907
It's a business that

2692
01:30:16,844 --> 01:30:17,511
prioritizes profit. Because of

2693
01:30:17,511 --> 01:30:18,879
this. They are not privy to

2694
01:30:18,879 --> 01:30:20,314
the checks and balances. Our

2695
01:30:20,314 --> 01:30:22,714
lovely government staff are

2696
01:30:23,684 --> 01:30:25,686
beholden to. Because of this

2697
01:30:25,686 --> 01:30:26,287
flock lies about their

2698
01:30:26,287 --> 01:30:28,687
security and prove his

2699
01:30:29,190 --> 01:30:30,857
relatively available. Flock is

2700
01:30:30,857 --> 01:30:33,857
not only store license plate

2701
01:30:34,762 --> 01:30:38,362
data. It stores the video both

2702
01:30:38,365 --> 01:30:40,268
regular and infrared. They all

2703
01:30:40,268 --> 01:30:42,668
have facial recognition. Every

2704
01:30:44,805 --> 01:30:45,472
camera. Some park cameras,

2705
01:30:45,472 --> 01:30:47,472
scammers Staradio Strachan

2706
01:30:49,900 --> 01:30:51,900
mentioned. Flock cameras.

2707
01:30:52,120 --> 01:30:53,800
Let's cameras also have iron

2708
01:30:53,800 --> 01:30:55,480
mentioned. They have patient

2709
01:30:56,160 --> 01:30:57,818
outcomes. Official commission

2710
01:30:57,818 --> 01:31:00,818
all this information is by

2711
01:31:02,989 --> 01:31:04,859
default stored for 30 days.

2712
01:31:04,859 --> 01:31:07,859
It's also us and not.

2713
01:31:09,620 --> 01:31:09,730
Encrypted. All of these

2714
01:31:09,730 --> 01:31:12,130
cameras are also incredibly

2715
01:31:12,800 --> 01:31:13,434
happy. Couple. Because each

2716
01:31:13,434 --> 01:31:16,434
and every camera has its

2717
01:31:16,704 --> 01:31:18,239
computer. Any hacker can

2718
01:31:18,239 --> 01:31:19,206
hockey's cameras and saw their

2719
01:31:19,206 --> 01:31:21,408
own software changing how long

2720
01:31:21,408 --> 01:31:22,900
that information is stored.

2721
01:31:22,900 --> 01:31:24,409
And changing where that

2722
01:31:27,248 --> 01:31:29,648
information MAY come. Cameras

2723
01:31:30,985 --> 01:31:31,919
are throughout Jacksonville.

2724
01:31:31,919 --> 01:31:34,255
And how that data can be used

2725
01:31:34,255 --> 01:31:35,556
cannot only be used to. Stock

2726
01:31:35,556 --> 01:31:37,956
and monitor information about

2727
01:31:39,693 --> 01:31:42,693
office. Regular folk, but also

2728
01:31:43,898 --> 01:31:45,800
every single one of you.

2729
01:31:45,800 --> 01:31:46,500
Information start by flock

2730
01:31:46,500 --> 01:31:49,370
cameras has already been used

2731
01:31:49,370 --> 01:31:52,370
a stock. Several women. Were

2732
01:31:53,740 --> 01:31:53,708
former partners of police

2733
01:31:53,708 --> 01:31:56,108
officers and other cities

2734
01:31:58,646 --> 01:32:00,470
throughout the United States.

2735
01:32:00,470 --> 01:32:01,616
Video information that maybe

2736
01:32:01,616 --> 01:32:02,316
someone could extract from a

2737
01:32:02,316 --> 01:32:05,916
pla camera could also be used

2738
01:32:06,387 --> 01:32:06,987
to say. Okay, thank you. Thank

2739
01:32:06,987 --> 01:32:09,987
you. Next we have Jaime

2740
01:32:15,730 --> 01:32:16,430
Travers, Leonard.

2741
01:32:16,430 --> 01:32:17,310
>> Good Evening City Council.

2742
01:32:17,310 --> 01:32:19,500
My name is Jamie Thomas

2743
01:32:19,500 --> 01:32:22,500
Leonard, my addresses on file

2744
01:32:22,570 --> 01:32:24,638
like to start off by inviting

2745
01:32:24,638 --> 01:32:25,940
everybody on the dias to the

2746
01:32:25,940 --> 01:32:27,608
Emerald Trail as line cleanup

2747
01:32:27,608 --> 01:32:28,409
this Saturday from 9 to 11,

2748
01:32:28,409 --> 01:32:29,760
it's being hosted by your

2749
01:32:29,760 --> 01:32:31,476
side. Pride and groundwork.

2750
01:32:31,812 --> 01:32:32,647
Tax. Hope to see you there.

2751
01:32:32,647 --> 01:32:33,347
Second, I'd like to talk about

2752
01:32:33,347 --> 01:32:35,283
something a little closer to

2753
01:32:35,283 --> 01:32:35,816
the heart. I apologize I get a

2754
01:32:35,816 --> 01:32:37,816
little emotional.

2755
01:32:38,653 --> 01:32:39,287
>> And that is retention pond.

2756
01:32:39,287 --> 01:32:41,687
Safety last Wednesday, a

2757
01:32:43,191 --> 01:32:44,959
little boy. With autism near

2758
01:32:44,959 --> 01:32:45,626
my neighborhood drowned in

2759
01:32:45,626 --> 01:32:48,260
retention pond after being

2760
01:32:49,764 --> 01:32:50,798
missing for several hours a

2761
01:32:50,798 --> 01:32:52,666
lot of the community was

2762
01:32:52,666 --> 01:32:53,268
looking for him. I know the

2763
01:32:53,268 --> 01:32:53,935
jso was out. We had the

2764
01:32:53,935 --> 01:32:56,335
helicopters flying over my

2765
01:32:56,604 --> 01:32:57,271
neighborhood. I think

2766
01:32:57,271 --> 01:32:59,807
everybody on the ground did

2767
01:32:59,807 --> 01:33:01,800
everything they cut. But I

2768
01:33:01,800 --> 01:33:02,109
fear that the city council

2769
01:33:02,109 --> 01:33:04,412
could have done more prior to

2770
01:33:04,412 --> 01:33:06,470
this inciting incident. C 2

2771
01:33:06,470 --> 01:33:09,470
other little boys with autism

2772
01:33:10,251 --> 01:33:11,953
drowned in 2021. That was

2773
01:33:11,953 --> 01:33:14,489
Gavin Doyon and Mohamed Noor.

2774
01:33:14,489 --> 01:33:16,391
And at that time the city

2775
01:33:16,391 --> 01:33:18,693
council was supposed to

2776
01:33:18,693 --> 01:33:20,628
address the lack of protective

2777
01:33:20,628 --> 01:33:21,229
infrastructure around

2778
01:33:21,229 --> 01:33:23,629
retention ponds. And it

2779
01:33:24,332 --> 01:33:27,302
clearly has not. I'm asking

2780
01:33:27,302 --> 01:33:28,569
the city Council. To take that

2781
01:33:28,569 --> 01:33:31,569
initiative back up again. We

2782
01:33:33,308 --> 01:33:35,308
have. Regulations, Florida

2783
01:33:35,676 --> 01:33:36,477
pool regulations for personal

2784
01:33:36,477 --> 01:33:38,477
pools. Florida regulations

2785
01:33:39,413 --> 01:33:40,381
require that barriers. For any

2786
01:33:40,381 --> 01:33:43,381
new or remodeled pool be

2787
01:33:43,818 --> 01:33:44,552
protected with by a four-foot

2788
01:33:44,552 --> 01:33:45,286
area with no gaps large enough

2789
01:33:45,286 --> 01:33:48,886
for a small child prof to

2790
01:33:49,424 --> 01:33:50,125
climb over. I'm asking that we

2791
01:33:50,125 --> 01:33:52,525
have similar protections for

2792
01:33:53,610 --> 01:33:53,661
residential retention ponds. I

2793
01:33:53,661 --> 01:33:54,362
recognize that we can't

2794
01:33:54,362 --> 01:33:57,362
protect every body of water.

2795
01:33:57,632 --> 01:33:58,266
We live in Florida. It's a

2796
01:33:58,266 --> 01:34:00,635
coastal city, but I think

2797
01:34:00,635 --> 01:34:03,171
there's more we can do to try

2798
01:34:03,171 --> 01:34:05,571
and protect these kids.

2799
01:34:07,108 --> 01:34:07,776
Because kids don't scene storm

2800
01:34:07,776 --> 01:34:09,644
water, infrastructure. They

2801
01:34:09,644 --> 01:34:10,378
see a shiny little lake. So

2802
01:34:10,378 --> 01:34:13,978
once again, I'm calling on all

2803
01:34:14,182 --> 01:34:16,517
of you. To pass something 2

2804
01:34:16,517 --> 01:34:17,452
add in some protection for

2805
01:34:17,452 --> 01:34:19,852
children. They're getting too

2806
01:34:22,424 --> 01:34:23,240
close to the spot. Thank you.

2807
01:34:23,240 --> 01:34:23,691
>> There are actually 2

2808
01:34:23,691 --> 01:34:24,392
council members that has to

2809
01:34:24,392 --> 01:34:26,994
speak with you. We can't have

2810
01:34:26,994 --> 01:34:27,829
them both the same time. So

2811
01:34:27,829 --> 01:34:28,529
ladies, first, some as

2812
01:34:28,529 --> 01:34:30,331
payments going to be too. And

2813
01:34:30,331 --> 01:34:32,300
then MISTER Gaffney Junior.

2814
01:34:32,300 --> 01:34:35,103
>> We'll follow up and our

2815
01:34:35,103 --> 01:34:35,703
next speaker is wealth tied.

2816
01:34:35,703 --> 01:34:36,905
And then the remaining

2817
01:34:36,905 --> 01:34:39,305
speakers can come forward

2818
01:34:42,100 --> 01:34:42,710
after Bo have Brooke Dube, Tom

2819
01:34:42,710 --> 01:34:45,110
Maguire, John Janey Antony's

2820
01:34:46,114 --> 01:34:47,415
Cook.

2821
01:34:47,415 --> 01:34:48,450
>> My name is well as taught

2822
01:34:48,450 --> 01:34:49,150
in my address is on file and

2823
01:34:49,150 --> 01:34:53,350
I'm a member of take em down

2824
01:34:53,488 --> 01:34:54,189
Jax. I was watching Bryan

2825
01:34:54,189 --> 01:34:54,823
Stevenson this morning. He's

2826
01:34:54,823 --> 01:34:56,257
the director of the Equal

2827
01:34:56,257 --> 01:34:57,960
Justice Initiative. And he

2828
01:34:57,960 --> 01:35:00,960
spoke about the narrative. In

2829
01:35:02,864 --> 01:35:04,232
America. And how the North won

2830
01:35:04,232 --> 01:35:04,633
the war, the Civil War. But

2831
01:35:04,633 --> 01:35:06,633
the South.

2832
01:35:09,637 --> 01:35:11,139
>> One, a narrative. To put it

2833
01:35:11,139 --> 01:35:11,740
bluntly that narrative has

2834
01:35:11,740 --> 01:35:12,374
always been blacks are

2835
01:35:12,374 --> 01:35:15,374
inferior and whites us a

2836
01:35:15,444 --> 01:35:17,312
period. I raise this part of

2837
01:35:17,312 --> 01:35:18,130
the narrative because it has

2838
01:35:18,130 --> 01:35:21,130
allowed rich white folks over

2839
01:35:22,251 --> 01:35:22,817
the past 400 years to carry

2840
01:35:22,817 --> 01:35:23,318
out untold misery and

2841
01:35:23,318 --> 01:35:23,952
suffering towards

2842
01:35:23,952 --> 01:35:25,952
African-Americans and all

2843
01:35:27,550 --> 01:35:27,890
people of color. The narrative

2844
01:35:27,890 --> 01:35:30,890
has allowed redlining to be

2845
01:35:31,793 --> 01:35:32,594
put into law. The narrative

2846
01:35:32,594 --> 01:35:35,300
allowed major highways to run

2847
01:35:35,300 --> 01:35:37,300
through black communities,

2848
01:35:37,899 --> 01:35:39,468
driving down the value of land

2849
01:35:39,468 --> 01:35:40,168
and that propaganda. That

2850
01:35:40,168 --> 01:35:43,168
narrative was that they were

2851
01:35:46,208 --> 01:35:46,842
getting rid of slums. In

2852
01:35:46,842 --> 01:35:48,842
Jacksonville through that

2853
01:35:51,646 --> 01:35:52,347
narrative. Is the medical

2854
01:35:52,347 --> 01:35:55,347
examiner's office Mort in the

2855
01:35:57,585 --> 01:35:58,587
black community. If not for

2856
01:35:58,587 --> 01:35:59,187
the community organizing there

2857
01:35:59,187 --> 01:36:01,389
would have also been a

2858
01:36:01,389 --> 01:36:02,357
drive-thru liquor store. Part

2859
01:36:02,357 --> 01:36:03,250
of that narrative is, you know

2860
01:36:03,250 --> 01:36:06,250
how black people love their

2861
01:36:06,995 --> 01:36:10,595
liquor. Now you want to put

2862
01:36:11,332 --> 01:36:13,732
concrete. In the black

2863
01:36:15,370 --> 01:36:15,771
community. With no concern

2864
01:36:15,771 --> 01:36:18,771
about the negative and harmful

2865
01:36:19,207 --> 01:36:21,607
environmental costs. So the

2866
01:36:24,680 --> 01:36:25,680
cycle continues. When are you

2867
01:36:25,680 --> 01:36:29,280
all going to do something to

2868
01:36:32,254 --> 01:36:35,254
stop this cycle? All right,

2869
01:36:43,164 --> 01:36:45,167
next we have Brooke, Don Dube.

2870
01:36:45,167 --> 01:36:46,668
>> Good evening. My name is

2871
01:36:46,668 --> 01:36:47,402
Brooke Dube. I live at 85. 0,

2872
01:36:47,402 --> 01:36:50,338
5 Cordoba Avenue and I've been

2873
01:36:50,338 --> 01:36:51,206
volunteering with traveling to

2874
01:36:51,206 --> 01:36:51,840
return, an art for community

2875
01:36:51,840 --> 01:36:54,240
catch in Jacksonville for

2876
01:36:54,476 --> 01:36:55,177
about 2 years now. In that

2877
01:36:55,177 --> 01:36:56,411
time, I've helped get over in

2878
01:36:56,411 --> 01:36:58,811
the community. Cat fixed,

2879
01:37:00,150 --> 01:37:00,749
investigated. I've seen

2880
01:37:00,749 --> 01:37:02,751
firsthand how important a dual

2881
01:37:02,751 --> 01:37:04,453
Catholics program is to our

2882
01:37:04,453 --> 01:37:05,487
communities at end of each

2883
01:37:05,487 --> 01:37:07,189
fiscal year, funding is

2884
01:37:07,189 --> 01:37:07,889
provided to every pet that

2885
01:37:07,889 --> 01:37:08,557
because the need is so high.

2886
01:37:08,557 --> 01:37:10,957
The sponsor often exhausted

2887
01:37:11,260 --> 01:37:12,161
within just a few months after

2888
01:37:12,161 --> 01:37:13,128
that, many cats have to wait

2889
01:37:13,128 --> 01:37:13,762
for help or rely entirely on

2890
01:37:13,762 --> 01:37:16,162
volunteers trying to find

2891
01:37:17,565 --> 01:37:18,234
other resources. Right now

2892
01:37:18,234 --> 01:37:20,702
cost is $25 per unknown cat

2893
01:37:20,702 --> 01:37:21,703
through every pet that MAY not

2894
01:37:21,703 --> 01:37:23,238
sound like much for one cat,

2895
01:37:23,238 --> 01:37:23,939
but it adds up quickly

2896
01:37:23,939 --> 01:37:24,607
volunteers who are helping

2897
01:37:24,607 --> 01:37:27,700
track multiple cats across

2898
01:37:28,143 --> 01:37:29,177
different communities. Many

2899
01:37:29,177 --> 01:37:31,246
caregivers also simply cannot

2900
01:37:31,246 --> 01:37:32,810
afford the fee and volunteers

2901
01:37:32,810 --> 01:37:32,781
are already paying for traps

2902
01:37:32,781 --> 01:37:33,449
supplies, transportation and

2903
01:37:33,449 --> 01:37:36,180
countless hours of our own

2904
01:37:36,180 --> 01:37:37,720
time. While volunteer and I've

2905
01:37:37,720 --> 01:37:39,654
seen the impact, the delay tnr

2906
01:37:39,654 --> 01:37:40,756
can have kittens are born into

2907
01:37:40,756 --> 01:37:41,590
difficult conditions can

2908
01:37:41,590 --> 01:37:42,191
become sick. Mother catch

2909
01:37:42,191 --> 01:37:44,360
struggle to survive up

2910
01:37:44,360 --> 01:37:45,270
reducing litter after litter.

2911
01:37:45,270 --> 01:37:45,694
Now, cats often get injured

2912
01:37:45,694 --> 01:37:47,463
and fights and wonder Miles

2913
01:37:47,463 --> 01:37:49,463
neighborhoods looking for

2914
01:37:49,699 --> 01:37:50,499
mates. Every time funding runs

2915
01:37:50,499 --> 01:37:51,666
out, it becomes harder prevent

2916
01:37:51,666 --> 01:37:52,268
that cycle from continuing

2917
01:37:52,268 --> 01:37:54,268
because community cats

2918
01:37:54,870 --> 01:37:56,380
reproduce so quickly. Tnr is

2919
01:37:56,380 --> 01:37:57,573
one of the most effective and

2920
01:37:57,573 --> 01:37:59,174
humane ways to reduce the

2921
01:37:59,174 --> 01:38:01,574
outdoor cat population prevent

2922
01:38:02,544 --> 01:38:03,278
future leaders allows cast to

2923
01:38:03,278 --> 01:38:03,979
be vaccinated against diseases

2924
01:38:03,979 --> 01:38:04,680
improve their overall health.

2925
01:38:04,680 --> 01:38:05,514
It reduces the number of cats

2926
01:38:05,514 --> 01:38:07,483
that eventually enter

2927
01:38:07,483 --> 01:38:08,116
shelters. It also reduces

2928
01:38:08,116 --> 01:38:08,951
nuisance behavior such as

2929
01:38:08,951 --> 01:38:09,518
fightin sprain and loud mating

2930
01:38:09,518 --> 01:38:11,518
calls, which benefits

2931
01:38:12,354 --> 01:38:13,550
neighborhoods as well. I

2932
01:38:13,550 --> 01:38:16,550
understand that our city has

2933
01:38:16,192 --> 01:38:16,859
many important priorities. I

2934
01:38:16,859 --> 01:38:17,559
respectfully ask the city

2935
01:38:17,559 --> 01:38:18,828
Council to consider increase

2936
01:38:18,828 --> 01:38:20,996
and maintain and fund and dual

2937
01:38:20,996 --> 01:38:23,396
Catholics program. Right? So

2938
01:38:25,670 --> 01:38:25,701
that it. Continues haven't

2939
01:38:25,701 --> 01:38:27,103
been done throughout the

2940
01:38:27,103 --> 01:38:28,370
entire year rather than the

2941
01:38:28,370 --> 01:38:29,338
first few months and running

2942
01:38:29,338 --> 01:38:32,375
out. Thank you for your time

2943
01:38:32,375 --> 01:38:33,750
and for consideration.

2944
01:38:33,750 --> 01:38:36,750
>> All right. Thank you. Next

2945
01:38:41,416 --> 01:38:42,385
we have Tom Maguire. Good

2946
01:38:42,385 --> 01:38:44,419
evening, ladies and Gentleman.

2947
01:38:44,419 --> 01:38:45,880
I am Tom Maguire. 4, 7, 1, 1,

2948
01:38:45,880 --> 01:38:47,488
heard or road Jacksonville,

2949
01:38:47,789 --> 01:38:48,524
Florida, 3, 2, 2, 1, 0,

2950
01:38:48,524 --> 01:38:49,258
>> Before I start complaining

2951
01:38:49,258 --> 01:38:51,293
tonight, I would like to give

2952
01:38:51,293 --> 01:38:53,693
to creators for events

2953
01:38:54,697 --> 01:38:55,498
recently in the city, very

2954
01:38:55,498 --> 01:38:58,498
pleased with the Johnson and

2955
01:38:58,534 --> 01:39:00,369
Johnson, an active your

2956
01:39:00,369 --> 01:39:02,505
expansion. Good It brings jobs

2957
01:39:02,505 --> 01:39:05,274
to area that really needs jobs

2958
01:39:05,274 --> 01:39:07,577
and we need more of that. So I

2959
01:39:07,577 --> 01:39:10,577
hope y'all continue on in

2960
01:39:11,713 --> 01:39:12,748
that. And hey, jso aviation

2961
01:39:12,748 --> 01:39:13,783
unit finally achieved

2962
01:39:13,783 --> 01:39:14,383
something of note resulting in

2963
01:39:14,383 --> 01:39:16,783
the seizure of several

2964
01:39:18,887 --> 01:39:19,923
vehicles and that's great and

2965
01:39:19,923 --> 01:39:20,590
happy for that. But I'm not

2966
01:39:20,590 --> 01:39:22,892
sure if that justifies the

2967
01:39:22,892 --> 01:39:25,892
expense of the Union. Now

2968
01:39:27,463 --> 01:39:28,631
let's get to the complaining.

2969
01:39:28,631 --> 01:39:29,799
Still struggle to understand

2970
01:39:29,799 --> 01:39:33,399
how in a time of declining

2971
01:39:33,936 --> 01:39:36,138
servant City revenue and the

2972
01:39:36,138 --> 01:39:36,872
pending vote on the property

2973
01:39:36,872 --> 01:39:38,608
tax amendment. We're even

2974
01:39:38,608 --> 01:39:41,800
considering building a new

2975
01:39:44,313 --> 01:39:44,981
jail. We have spent $750,000

2976
01:39:44,981 --> 01:39:47,116
to find a new location. But

2977
01:39:47,116 --> 01:39:49,752
we've not wanted any money.

2978
01:39:49,752 --> 01:39:51,587
Study how much money it would

2979
01:39:51,587 --> 01:39:54,587
take to renovate and repair

2980
01:39:55,858 --> 01:39:56,726
the old jail to make a fair

2981
01:39:56,726 --> 01:39:59,126
comparison. We need both

2982
01:40:01,130 --> 01:40:03,967
datasets on that. We cannot

2983
01:40:03,967 --> 01:40:06,269
make an informed decision

2984
01:40:06,269 --> 01:40:07,670
without that. I also believe

2985
01:40:07,670 --> 01:40:09,973
the information that we are

2986
01:40:09,973 --> 01:40:13,376
using on the cost savings or

2987
01:40:13,376 --> 01:40:15,545
having a new jail does not

2988
01:40:15,545 --> 01:40:16,713
take every aspect of it into

2989
01:40:16,713 --> 01:40:18,714
consideration. You're going to

2990
01:40:18,714 --> 01:40:20,316
be building a much larger

2991
01:40:20,316 --> 01:40:23,686
campus, which you will have to

2992
01:40:23,686 --> 01:40:25,154
maintain and secure every

2993
01:40:25,154 --> 01:40:26,255
single foot of a jail has to

2994
01:40:26,255 --> 01:40:29,855
be secured. That's going to be

2995
01:40:35,298 --> 01:40:36,298
expensive going on. Another

2996
01:40:36,298 --> 01:40:37,934
thing is we're all mostly

2997
01:40:37,934 --> 01:40:40,270
considering locations on the

2998
01:40:40,270 --> 01:40:40,937
outskirts of the city. So

2999
01:40:40,937 --> 01:40:43,337
transporting the inmates to

3000
01:40:43,740 --> 01:40:44,474
the jail to there. Very many

3001
01:40:44,474 --> 01:40:46,776
court appearance is it's going

3002
01:40:46,776 --> 01:40:47,510
to be an enormous cost. And

3003
01:40:47,510 --> 01:40:50,510
that's something we need to

3004
01:40:50,980 --> 01:40:51,881
take into account, too. I

3005
01:40:51,881 --> 01:40:54,751
really can't believe that this

3006
01:40:54,751 --> 01:40:56,786
is the one issue that you all

3007
01:40:56,786 --> 01:40:58,621
and the mayor's office. Found

3008
01:40:58,621 --> 01:40:59,289
that you can bipartisan Lee

3009
01:40:59,289 --> 01:41:01,689
support because it's really

3010
01:41:04,260 --> 01:41:05,795
just a bad idea. Thank you.

3079
01:44:03,206 --> 01:44:03,907
evening, everybody. I'm going

3080
01:44:03,907 --> 01:44:07,430
to be pretty brief tonight. I

3081
01:44:07,430 --> 01:44:08,780
was kind of all over the place

3082
01:44:08,780 --> 01:44:11,150
last Want to stay a little bit

3083
01:44:11,150 --> 01:44:12,315
more focus tonight. Want to

3084
01:44:12,315 --> 01:44:13,500
talk about cpac. Want to talk

3085
01:44:13,500 --> 01:44:14,451
about the neighborhood Bill of

3086
01:44:14,451 --> 01:44:18,510
Rights. I want to talk about

3087
01:44:18,455 --> 01:44:22,526
that. I agree that I was a

3088
01:44:22,526 --> 01:44:23,227
good idea to slow down the

3089
01:44:23,227 --> 01:44:23,994
building in downtown so that

3090
01:44:23,994 --> 01:44:26,620
we can look at the incentives

3091
01:44:26,620 --> 01:44:27,832
that were passing out to

3092
01:44:27,832 --> 01:44:28,465
businesses. You know, we have

3093
01:44:28,465 --> 01:44:29,833
a lot of things happening

3094
01:44:29,833 --> 01:44:32,202
downtown with uf and there

3095
01:44:32,202 --> 01:44:34,602
should be some organic

3096
01:44:35,500 --> 01:44:37,405
development within our city

3097
01:44:38,175 --> 01:44:39,276
that will stem from that. So

3098
01:44:39,276 --> 01:44:39,943
let's you know, let's hope

3099
01:44:39,943 --> 01:44:42,546
some of the incentives that

3100
01:44:42,546 --> 01:44:44,848
were passing out like Candy. I

3101
01:44:44,848 --> 01:44:47,784
so I'm glad of that. I also

3102
01:44:47,784 --> 01:44:48,885
want to say that, you know,

3103
01:44:48,885 --> 01:44:50,821
there's some good development

3104
01:44:50,821 --> 01:44:51,522
on the West side that I'm

3105
01:44:51,522 --> 01:44:52,189
unhappy to see as far as the

3106
01:44:52,189 --> 01:44:54,558
Army training facility and

3107
01:44:54,558 --> 01:44:56,558
things like that.

3108
01:44:56,560 --> 01:44:58,628
>> I do want to talk about

3109
01:44:58,628 --> 01:44:59,329
redlining as always. There's

3110
01:44:59,329 --> 01:44:59,964
digital redlining. There's

3111
01:44:59,964 --> 01:45:01,665
environmental redlining.

3112
01:45:01,665 --> 01:45:03,500
There's regular zoning,

3113
01:45:03,500 --> 01:45:04,301
redlining. We're going to

3114
01:45:04,301 --> 01:45:05,350
continue to talk about this

3115
01:45:05,350 --> 01:45:08,350
until there's some more equity

3116
01:45:08,505 --> 01:45:12,105
in our city. We've made some

3117
01:45:13,310 --> 01:45:16,310
slight progress. What are we

3118
01:45:17,810 --> 01:45:17,815
doing as we grow? And

3119
01:45:17,815 --> 01:45:19,815
gentrification to starts

3120
01:45:21,451 --> 01:45:22,552
taking place the Northwest.

3121
01:45:22,552 --> 01:45:23,420
Are we going to protect the

3122
01:45:23,420 --> 01:45:24,121
people that have been there

3123
01:45:24,121 --> 01:45:27,230
for 80 years? Are we going to

3124
01:45:27,230 --> 01:45:27,692
let them be pushed out?

3125
01:45:27,692 --> 01:45:30,920
Because the development is

3126
01:45:30,294 --> 01:45:31,280
going to happen? So I want us

3127
01:45:31,280 --> 01:45:34,231
to really think about this and

3128
01:45:34,231 --> 01:45:35,365
think about our land use and

3129
01:45:35,365 --> 01:45:36,990
zoning and really be

3130
01:45:36,990 --> 01:45:36,767
purposeful with our decisions

3131
01:45:36,767 --> 01:45:39,767
that were that were putting

3132
01:45:40,671 --> 01:45:44,271
forth. I think that's about it

3133
01:45:44,341 --> 01:45:45,420
tonight. I hope everybody has

3134
01:45:45,420 --> 01:45:48,642
a good evening and we'll see

3135
01:45:49,714 --> 01:45:51,115
in a couple weeks. Thank you.

3136
01:45:51,115 --> 01:45:53,515
PRESIDENT That concludes our

3137
01:45:54,351 --> 01:45:56,521
public comment for tonight,

3138
01:45:56,521 --> 01:45:57,221
And we are going to recognize

3139
01:45:57,221 --> 01:45:57,821
Councilmember heirs who want

3140
01:45:57,821 --> 01:46:00,230
speak about his notice

3141
01:46:00,230 --> 01:46:00,692
meeting. I believe.

3142
01:46:00,692 --> 01:46:02,793
>> Yes, And thank you, MR.

3143
01:46:02,793 --> 01:46:05,193
PRESIDENT for allowing some

3144
01:46:05,763 --> 01:46:06,931
time here. So just to put it.

3145
01:46:06,931 --> 01:46:07,898
But it points very quick for

3146
01:46:07,898 --> 01:46:08,900
the council members. Here is

3147
01:46:08,900 --> 01:46:09,600
the fact that next week when

3148
01:46:09,600 --> 01:46:11,668
have a public notice many as

3149
01:46:11,668 --> 01:46:13,700
you heard on the free to guard

3150
01:46:13,700 --> 01:46:14,105
night, there have been I want

3151
01:46:14,105 --> 01:46:17,740
to see 1000 cars today and 975

3152
01:46:17,740 --> 01:46:17,975
have been from that community.

3153
01:46:17,975 --> 01:46:20,975
So I definitely encourage you

3154
01:46:22,980 --> 01:46:23,748
guys to come out meet with us.

3155
01:46:23,748 --> 01:46:24,415
Just have some concerns.

3156
01:46:24,415 --> 01:46:25,820
They're entrepreneurs. They

3157
01:46:25,820 --> 01:46:27,510
want to make sure that they

3158
01:46:27,510 --> 01:46:27,751
have the right to grow. But in

3159
01:46:27,751 --> 01:46:29,520
conjunction with out, there's

3160
01:46:29,520 --> 01:46:31,756
also another bill in the

3161
01:46:31,756 --> 01:46:33,157
process, the home occupation

3162
01:46:33,157 --> 01:46:34,726
build, which was introduced by

3163
01:46:34,726 --> 01:46:37,126
COUNCILMAN Peaceful and Chris

3164
01:46:37,761 --> 01:46:38,863
Minor. That bill has been

3165
01:46:38,863 --> 01:46:40,665
deferred since MAY 12. What

3166
01:46:40,665 --> 01:46:43,665
started the 12 says going on 3

3167
01:46:43,801 --> 01:46:45,360
months now. And so my question

3168
01:46:45,360 --> 01:46:45,636
to MISTER Fall. Why want to

3169
01:46:45,636 --> 01:46:48,720
know what the status is

3170
01:46:48,720 --> 01:46:48,739
without? Because in order to

3171
01:46:48,739 --> 01:46:49,440
to pass is free to guard a

3172
01:46:49,440 --> 01:46:52,109
night or 2. Even start had a

3173
01:46:52,109 --> 01:46:52,843
conversation on this. We do

3174
01:46:52,843 --> 01:46:55,843
have this bill home occupation

3175
01:46:56,914 --> 01:46:57,581
on the rocks prior to that.

3176
01:46:57,581 --> 01:46:58,283
>> Through the PRESIDENT To

3177
01:46:58,283 --> 01:46:59,984
Councilmember Arias. So it's

3178
01:46:59,984 --> 01:47:00,651
currently being deferred and

3179
01:47:00,651 --> 01:47:03,387
committees. It's a sign of

3180
01:47:03,387 --> 01:47:04,321
both rules in the land use and

3181
01:47:04,321 --> 01:47:05,560
zoning committees. I would

3182
01:47:05,560 --> 01:47:07,391
have to either deferred to the

3183
01:47:07,391 --> 01:47:09,460
it one of the introduce ERs or

3184
01:47:09,460 --> 01:47:10,127
to Michelle r MISTER Harvey to

3185
01:47:10,127 --> 01:47:11,763
express why the committees

3186
01:47:11,763 --> 01:47:13,297
have been continuing one or

3187
01:47:13,297 --> 01:47:15,867
one of the chairs MAY be able

3188
01:47:15,867 --> 01:47:16,501
to address And I know council

3189
01:47:16,501 --> 01:47:17,101
regains your committee is

3190
01:47:17,101 --> 01:47:18,469
being deferred. I'm not

3191
01:47:18,469 --> 01:47:19,971
mistaken. Do you are?

3192
01:47:19,971 --> 01:47:22,173
>> So what would you guys? I

3193
01:47:22,173 --> 01:47:22,574
too lioness to what's going on

3194
01:47:22,574 --> 01:47:23,274
with that?

3195
01:47:23,274 --> 01:47:25,274
>> We're addressing committee

3196
01:47:27,345 --> 01:47:28,120
next week. We can next week.

3197
01:47:28,120 --> 01:47:30,120
Michigan, you're recognized

3198
01:47:33,918 --> 01:47:35,918
like to address.

3199
01:47:36,921 --> 01:47:38,990
>> Due chair the council will

3200
01:47:38,990 --> 01:47:39,657
be addressing it based on the

3201
01:47:39,657 --> 01:47:41,792
introduce years, if they're

3202
01:47:41,792 --> 01:47:44,428
ready to move forward with it

3203
01:47:44,428 --> 01:47:48,399
or not. We kinda, we're all be

3204
01:47:48,399 --> 01:47:50,168
just really, really unknown.

3205
01:47:50,168 --> 01:47:51,369
There. Desire on I was only

3206
01:47:51,369 --> 01:47:52,403
asking because when we have

3207
01:47:52,403 --> 01:47:53,370
the meeting next week, the

3208
01:47:53,370 --> 01:47:54,806
communities want to know

3209
01:47:54,806 --> 01:47:55,140
what's going on with that

3210
01:47:55,140 --> 01:47:56,941
because

3211
01:47:56,941 --> 01:47:58,941
>> that essentially enables

3212
01:47:59,110 --> 01:47:59,877
residents to be able to have a

3213
01:47:59,877 --> 01:48:02,146
business in their home and

3214
01:48:02,146 --> 01:48:02,813
also sell their products in

3215
01:48:02,813 --> 01:48:04,482
their homes. So it's a your

3216
01:48:04,482 --> 01:48:05,149
meeting will be before it will

3217
01:48:05,149 --> 01:48:07,585

01:53:37,316 --> 01:53:37,983
saw the finance Committee

3365
01:53:37,983 --> 01:53:40,983

3368
01:53:44,991 --> 01:53:46,225
that's going to be in here.

3369
01:53:46,225 --> 01:53:46,893
And I I'm curious because

3370
01:53:46,893 --> 01:53:47,560
you're going to be changing

3371
01:53:47,560 --> 01:53:50,263

roadways stuff.

3373
01:53:51,564 --> 01:53:54,200
>> So, you know, you're going

3374
01:53:54,200 --> 01:53:54,900
to be allowing for roadway

3375
01:53:54,900 --> 01:53:56,302

3379
01:54:03,976 --> 01:54:04,811
I'm going with it is.

3380
01:54:04,811 --> 01:54:06,779

>> And cpac, 3 was a no show.

3383
01:54:14,530 --> 01:54:17,490
I mean, it is tough. So so

3384
01:54:17,490 --> 01:54:18,725

shirt, no Okay. Well.

3547
02:00:41,809 --> 02:00:42,509
>> All right. All right. Let's

3548
02:00:42,509 --> 02:00:44,909
pause, MISTER Colors. You're

3549
02:00:48,315 --> 02:00:48,983
recognized. MR. Nanny. I have

3550
02:00:48,983 --> 02:00:51,983
been one of the friendliest

3551
02:00:52,620 --> 02:00:53,320
councilmembers to And you know

3552
02:00:53,320 --> 02:00:56,491
that I have known you a long

3553
02:00:56,491 --> 02:00:58,592
time. And rather you keep

3554
02:00:58,592 --> 02:01:00,394
coming up here time and time

3555
02:01:00,394 --> 02:01:03,394
again. You're not making a

3556
02:01:05,133 --> 02:01:05,800
point. So what you're doing? I

3557
02:01:05,800 --> 02:01:07,535
don't care about being held

3558
02:01:07,535 --> 02:01:08,235
up. I could be held up. I can

3559
02:01:08,235 --> 02:01:10,370
sit here and listen. Listen,

3560
02:01:10,370 --> 02:01:13,370
listen. Lot of people back

3561
02:01:13,474 --> 02:01:14,174
here, though. Are going to

3562
02:01:14,174 --> 02:01:17,110
want to get up and hear their

3563
02:01:17,110 --> 02:01:17,678
bills. There's people here

3564
02:01:17,678 --> 02:01:18,980
that have important bills.

3565
02:01:18,980 --> 02:01:20,214
They want to talk to and they

3566
02:01:20,214 --> 02:01:22,684
want to get to their points.

3567
02:01:22,684 --> 02:01:25,684
And you're not. And you're

3568
02:01:25,987 --> 02:01:27,889
holding them up. Now, John,

3569
02:01:27,889 --> 02:01:31,489
you know that that is not.

3570
02:01:32,660 --> 02:01:33,394
Polite. And you are a polite

3571
02:01:33,394 --> 02:01:35,262
person. You know your manners.

3572
02:01:35,262 --> 02:01:35,963
But you're breaking right now.

3573
02:01:35,963 --> 02:01:38,320
So that's the point I want to

3574
02:01:38,320 --> 02:01:41,632
make to him. And I've known

3575
02:01:41,736 --> 02:01:42,470
this man for a long time. And

3576
02:01:42,470 --> 02:01:45,740
you know, what you're doing is

3577
02:01:45,740 --> 02:01:47,740
repetitive. It's out of order.

3578
02:01:47,740 --> 02:01:47,742
And if you do it again, I

3579
02:01:47,742 --> 02:01:51,342
bring the point of Did the

3580
02:01:51,679 --> 02:01:53,147
other night. Most top. This is

3581
02:01:53,147 --> 02:01:55,850
out of my character. I don't

3582
02:01:55,850 --> 02:01:57,685
like doing this. But also

3583
02:01:57,685 --> 02:01:58,553
don't like to good people held

3584
02:01:58,553 --> 02:02:01,489
up because somebody wants to

3585
02:02:01,489 --> 02:02:03,858
get the attention of the

3586
02:02:03,858 --> 02:02:05,426
diocese and not make a point

3587
02:02:05,426 --> 02:02:08,162
and just ramble on. It's not

3588
02:02:08,162 --> 02:02:11,762
fair. For fairness. Ok, I gave

3589
02:02:12,633 --> 02:02:13,334
you a nice resolution.

3590
02:02:13,334 --> 02:02:15,202
Commending you because you've

3591
02:02:15,202 --> 02:02:15,869
done good things. The people

3592
02:02:15,869 --> 02:02:16,971
appear they will take that

3593
02:02:16,971 --> 02:02:20,575
away from you. And I won't do

3594
02:02:20,575 --> 02:02:23,645
it. Because I like to err on

3595
02:02:23,645 --> 02:02:25,246
the side of kindness. You need

3596
02:02:25,246 --> 02:02:28,846
to err on the side of

3597
02:02:29,617 --> 02:02:30,551
kindness. Tonight. Stop Okay.

3598
02:02:30,551 --> 02:02:31,218
Your point is well taken.

3599
02:02:31,218 --> 02:02:34,818
Thank you. MISS A new knee.

3600
02:02:36,190 --> 02:02:37,591

02:05:15,950 --> 02:05:19,550
week for the books. Musser was

3667
02:05:19,821 --> 02:05:20,555

use an umbrella to sue me from

It's really all I got to say

3674
02:05:39,541 --> 02:05:40,275
about that. A lot of folks

3675
02:05:40,275 --> 02:05:44,546
that I talk to on the bus, I'm

3676
02:05:44,546 --> 02:05:48,146
not satisfied. They I guess he

3677
02:05:48,784 --> 02:05:49,485
left for job. So he was saying

3678
02:05:49,485 --> 02:05:51,453
all these great things about

3679
02:05:51,453 --> 02:05:54,230

7, 4, 0 Gram Bay Parkway West.

3695
02:06:41,537 --> 02:06:43,537
>> So eat 23, 50 Jacksonville,

3696
02:06:43,572 --> 02:06:44,239
Florida, 3, 2, 2, 5, 8, I'm

3697
02:06:44,239 --> 02:06:46,639
really here for questions.

3698
02:06:47,642 --> 02:06:48,445
Only

3699
02:06:48,445 --> 02:06:49,770
>> You know, when a new

3700
02:06:49,770 --> 02:06:49,778
market, I guess I'm still

3701
02:06:49,778 --> 02:06:52,147
hazing you for being back in

3702
02:06:52,147 --> 02:06:54,583
the in the public sector.

3703
02:06:54,583 --> 02:06:55,351
Private sector. Sorry about

3704
02:06:55,351 --> 02:06:57,751
that. Next speakers, Nancy

3705
02:06:58,587 --> 02:06:59,288
Marie Settle followed by. Who

3706
02:06:59,288 --> 02:06:59,921
does wish to speak all of us.

3707
02:06:59,921 --> 02:07:03,521
Met the series is now or

3708
02:07:06,195 --> 02:07:08,195
speak.

3709
02:07:08,964 --> 02:07:10,333
>> Good evening, Nancy Marie

3710
02:07:10,333 --> 02:07:12,733
Settle address on file

3711
02:07:13,235 --> 02:07:13,902
District, 7 Seed pac, 5

3712
02:07:13,902 --> 02:07:15,137
Northwest Jax. I'm here to

3713
02:07:15,137 --> 02:07:17,537
talk about concrete, healthy

3714
02:07:18,340 --> 02:07:19,740
neighborhoods and redlining

3715
02:07:19,740 --> 02:07:22,740
specifically a plan to allow

3716
02:07:23,145 --> 02:07:24,279
the operation of a concrete

3717
02:07:24,279 --> 02:07:26,816
batch plant in the vicinity of

3718
02:07:26,816 --> 02:07:29,216
Tell Kings crossing cra,

3719
02:07:29,484 --> 02:07:30,152
although the land-use

3720
02:07:30,152 --> 02:07:33,152
currently in the area part

3721
02:07:33,989 --> 02:07:34,790
light industrial. The has p

3722
02:07:34,790 --> 02:07:38,390
you d request that a concrete

3723
02:07:38,961 --> 02:07:39,661
batch plant be allowed.

3724
02:07:39,661 --> 02:07:41,661
Current zoning light

3725
02:07:42,980 --> 02:07:44,166
industrial. Those plans are

3726
02:07:44,166 --> 02:07:45,200
expressly prohibited concrete

3727
02:07:45,200 --> 02:07:47,303
batch plants produce high

3728
02:07:47,303 --> 02:07:48,370
levels of particulate matter

3729
02:07:48,370 --> 02:07:50,172
deaths which can cause serious

3730
02:07:50,172 --> 02:07:52,541
health implications for people

3731
02:07:52,541 --> 02:07:53,242
living nearby. They also bring

3732
02:07:53,242 --> 02:07:53,876
high truck traffic and noise

3733
02:07:53,876 --> 02:07:56,876
that can occur around the

3734
02:07:59,749 --> 02:08:00,916
clock. This 17 acre proposed

3735
02:08:00,916 --> 02:08:02,718
facility. Part of that acreage

3736
02:08:02,718 --> 02:08:04,720
is included in the Kings who

3737
02:08:04,720 --> 02:08:06,689
tell crossing community

3738
02:08:06,689 --> 02:08:08,689
redevelopment area.

3739
02:08:08,924 --> 02:08:09,558
>> And that's an area the city

3740
02:08:09,558 --> 02:08:10,493
has committed millions of

3741
02:08:10,493 --> 02:08:11,260
dollars to uplift this

3742
02:08:11,260 --> 02:08:11,894
historically underserved

3743
02:08:11,894 --> 02:08:13,894
district through retail,

3744
02:08:15,864 --> 02:08:17,266
housing and commercial

3745
02:08:17,266 --> 02:08:18,701
corridor enhancements, a new

3746
02:08:18,701 --> 02:08:19,401
heavy industrial use like

3747
02:08:19,401 --> 02:08:20,736
concrete black batch plant is

3748
02:08:20,736 --> 02:08:21,937
incompatible with that

3749
02:08:21,937 --> 02:08:24,937
mission. All 19 of you guys

3750
02:08:26,410 --> 02:08:28,441
sit on that board.

3751
02:08:29,440 --> 02:08:29,745
>> there

3752
02:08:29,745 --> 02:08:30,313
>> residents nearby. And I'm

3753
02:08:30,313 --> 02:08:32,810
just here to say the

3754
02:08:32,810 --> 02:08:32,748
degradation of the

3755
02:08:32,748 --> 02:08:34,748
environmental quality will

3756
02:08:34,884 --> 02:08:37,284
further the historical blight.

3757
02:08:37,720 --> 02:08:38,854
That's this area has

3758
02:08:38,854 --> 02:08:40,490
experienced. This is a part of

3759
02:08:40,490 --> 02:08:42,358
a historically marginalized

3760
02:08:42,358 --> 02:08:44,594
and underinvested section of

3761
02:08:44,594 --> 02:08:45,328
the city closely tied to the

3762
02:08:45,328 --> 02:08:47,328
legacy of discriminatory,

3763
02:08:50,766 --> 02:08:52,601
local zoning. Redlining. So

3764
02:08:52,601 --> 02:08:53,335
let's slow this down and ask

3765
02:08:53,335 --> 02:08:54,300
ourselves if we really want to

3766
02:08:54,300 --> 02:08:56,539
continue on this path. The

3767
02:08:56,539 --> 02:08:57,240
city of Jackson said we down

3768
02:08:57,240 --> 02:09:01,440
and that's why we do have the

3769
02:09:01,811 --> 02:09:02,946
Kings to tell crossing cra to

3770
02:09:02,946 --> 02:09:03,646
stop redlining and to improve

3771
02:09:03,646 --> 02:09:05,646
these historically neglected

3772
02:09:10,286 --> 02:09:12,286
neighborhoods.

3773
02:09:13,189 --> 02:09:13,823
>> These areas Moncrief they

3774
02:09:13,823 --> 02:09:14,524
want it. It's going to be

3775
02:09:14,524 --> 02:09:16,759
Lincoln Villas, Carver manner

3776
02:09:16,759 --> 02:09:17,460
in Sherwood Forest children

3777
02:09:17,460 --> 02:09:19,461
and residents will be exposed

3778
02:09:19,461 --> 02:09:20,620
to excessive noise and

3779
02:09:20,620 --> 02:09:22,462
pollution produced by a

3780
02:09:25,501 --> 02:09:27,637
concrete block plant. There is

3781
02:09:27,637 --> 02:09:29,472
an industrial land use in this

3782
02:09:29,472 --> 02:09:30,840
area today because of

3783
02:09:30,840 --> 02:09:32,475
historical red line in and

3784
02:09:32,475 --> 02:09:34,243
it's light industrial. Let's

3785
02:09:34,243 --> 02:09:34,877
not bring in a heavy use

3786
02:09:34,877 --> 02:09:37,277
concrete batch plant into

3787
02:09:40,350 --> 02:09:41,350
these neighborhoods. It's not

3788
02:09:41,350 --> 02:09:42,510
compatible with where the

3789
02:09:42,510 --> 02:09:45,510
direction the city is going.

3790
02:09:46,589 --> 02:09:47,523
We put millions of dollars

3791
02:09:47,523 --> 02:09:49,492
into to tell Kings crossing

3792
02:09:49,492 --> 02:09:51,561
area. Let's not backtrack

3793
02:09:51,561 --> 02:09:53,363
that. And then make it into

3794
02:09:53,363 --> 02:09:54,764
like a lot more heavy

3795
02:09:54,764 --> 02:09:56,800
industrial. And let's slow it

3796
02:09:56,800 --> 02:09:58,201
down just a bit. I'm part of

3797
02:09:58,201 --> 02:10:01,201
cpac and their meeting this

3798
02:10:02,372 --> 02:10:03,672
week. 5, thank you.

3799
02:10:03,672 --> 02:10:05,408
>> All right. Thank you. And

3800
02:10:05,408 --> 02:10:06,142
the last card again with

3801
02:10:06,142 --> 02:10:07,376
Samantha Serious, who does not

3802
02:10:07,376 --> 02:10:07,977
wish to speak and she opposes

3803
02:10:07,977 --> 02:10:09,977
the legislation. Public

3804
02:10:12,480 --> 02:10:14,448
hearings closed. All right.

3805
02:10:14,784 --> 02:10:15,485
Turn the page page. 22 item.

3806
02:10:15,485 --> 02:10:17,485
38 2026, Dash, 0, 5, 6, 9, We

3807
02:10:18,788 --> 02:10:20,390
have no speaker cards. It's

3808
02:10:20,390 --> 02:10:22,390
public areas. Number. 39,

3809
02:10:22,492 --> 02:10:23,359
2026, Dash, 0, 5, 7, 0, I have

3810
02:10:23,359 --> 02:10:25,759
3 speaker cards starting with

3811
02:10:28,464 --> 02:10:31,464
John. My Kathleen Pereira. And

3812
02:10:32,736 --> 02:10:35,736
Jaime Travers learned. MR. And

3813
02:10:40,577 --> 02:10:43,577
New Knee. He's in support.

3814
02:10:46,883 --> 02:10:47,317
Well, didn't come on down.

3815
02:10:47,317 --> 02:10:48,170
Ronnie Bikes.

3816
02:10:48,170 --> 02:10:51,170
>> All right. Thought you had

3817
02:10:56,920 --> 02:10:59,692
called them first. I am. John.

3818
02:11:01,970 --> 02:11:01,731
Evil Knievel. Mooney 83. 56

3819

Bascom Road Jacksonville,

3820
02:11:04,000 --> 02:11:05,468
Florida, 3, 2, 2, 1, 6, and

3821
02:11:05,468 --> 02:11:07,868
city council district 4 cpac,

3822
02:11:08,700 --> 02:11:10,470
3 school board district 3. Now

3823
02:11:10,507 --> 02:11:12,976
this, you know, this is bbb

3824
02:11:12,976 --> 02:11:14,976
stuff. Boylan's beautiful

3825
02:11:21,718 --> 02:11:22,419
Bill. And you I'm taking this

3826
02:11:22,419 --> 02:11:23,453
opportunity because this is

3827
02:11:23,453 --> 02:11:25,853
sweeping legislation not only

3828
02:11:25,988 --> 02:11:27,657
in Duval County, but you

3829
02:11:27,657 --> 02:11:30,570
really throughout the entire

3830
02:11:32,280 --> 02:11:34,798
state. So and they can to

3831
02:11:34,798 --> 02:11:36,733
donations. One will be used to

3832
02:11:36,733 --> 02:11:38,568
2026. For that's the Parks

3833
02:11:38,568 --> 02:11:41,568
Trust Fund. Great here. And

3834
02:11:45,976 --> 02:11:46,710
then the other is 2026, 0, 3,

3835
02:11:46,710 --> 02:11:49,379
9, 6, 0, e d said on the bill.

3836
02:11:49,379 --> 02:11:52,979
As said. And that's the movie

3837
02:11:54,817 --> 02:11:55,318
Trust Fund. So no, right now

3838
02:11:55,318 --> 02:11:57,318
you've got rules,

3839
02:12:00,220 --> 02:12:02,492
neighborhoods t e u. And more.

3840
02:12:02,492 --> 02:12:03,159
That's right. I'm done. Thank

3841
02:12:03,159 --> 02:12:05,428
you for listening. He still

3842
02:12:05,428 --> 02:12:08,165
wanted. Observe your point of

3843
02:12:08,165 --> 02:12:10,165
order. MISTER College.

3844
02:12:13,469 --> 02:12:13,804
>> And Pereira your that

3845
02:12:13,804 --> 02:12:14,538
works.

3846
02:12:14,538 --> 02:12:17,140
>> My name is Kathleen. Per my

3847
02:12:17,140 --> 02:12:19,209
information is on file. It

3848
02:12:19,209 --> 02:12:21,344
looks like walking is rapidly

3849
02:12:21,344 --> 02:12:22,450
becoming a luxury because soon

3850
02:12:22,450 --> 02:12:24,680
it's going to be mandatory to

3851
02:12:24,680 --> 02:12:26,582
buy pedestrian insurance from

3852
02:12:26,582 --> 02:12:28,752
all the encounters with bikes

3853
02:12:28,752 --> 02:12:29,986
e-bikes scooters and even

3854
02:12:29,986 --> 02:12:31,955
motorcycles. Bush think that

3855
02:12:31,955 --> 02:12:33,991
those sidewalks are extra 2

3856
02:12:33,991 --> 02:12:35,558
way highways that make them

3857
02:12:35,558 --> 02:12:38,558
immune from any traffic laws,

3858
02:12:38,962 --> 02:12:41,362
especially speeding. Less more

3859
02:12:41,998 --> 02:12:44,934
legislation of this type is

3860
02:12:44,934 --> 02:12:45,635
defined and more importantly

3861
02:12:45,635 --> 02:12:46,903
enforced. There's going to be

3862
02:12:46,903 --> 02:12:48,205
a lot of very happy new

3863
02:12:48,205 --> 02:12:50,730
insurance brokers and very

3864
02:12:50,730 --> 02:12:51,842
broken pedestrians lying on

3865
02:12:51,842 --> 02:12:52,542
the sidewalks, pass this bill

3866
02:12:52,542 --> 02:12:54,878
and even stronger ones. Thank

3867
02:12:54,878 --> 02:12:55,679
you.

3868
02:12:55,679 --> 02:12:58,679
>> All right. Thank you. And

3869
02:13:01,117 --> 02:13:02,386
last is Jaime Travers letter.

3870
02:13:02,386 --> 02:13:04,540
>> Good Evening City Council.

3871
02:13:04,540 --> 02:13:04,754
My name is Jimmy Travis Honor.

3872
02:13:04,754 --> 02:13:08,225
My addresses on file. I am in

3873
02:13:08,225 --> 02:13:08,959
support of 26 5.70 I don't

3874
02:13:08,959 --> 02:13:09,927
have too much to say on this.

3875
02:13:09,927 --> 02:13:13,527
Honestly. My only ask is that

3876
02:13:13,730 --> 02:13:15,665
kids using e-bikes. This is

3877
02:13:15,665 --> 02:13:16,867
grown over the years because

3878
02:13:16,867 --> 02:13:17,601
they lacked transportation

3879
02:13:17,601 --> 02:13:19,469
other forms. So as we continue

3880
02:13:19,469 --> 02:13:21,604
to pass legislation around

3881
02:13:21,604 --> 02:13:22,272
e-bikes and ordinances that

3882
02:13:22,272 --> 02:13:23,139
deal with what is and isn't

3883
02:13:23,139 --> 02:13:25,976
allowed, which I do agree with

3884
02:13:25,976 --> 02:13:26,943
him not being on sidewalks as

3885
02:13:26,943 --> 02:13:29,747
a reminder, I hope that we

3886
02:13:29,747 --> 02:13:30,814
continue to look at

3887
02:13:30,814 --> 02:13:31,548
alternative transportation

3888
02:13:31,548 --> 02:13:34,484
options for our kids to get to

3889
02:13:34,484 --> 02:13:35,218
and from school. As I said,

3890
02:13:35,218 --> 02:13:37,521
this is a very popular mode of

3891
02:13:37,521 --> 02:13:38,788
transportation at this moment.

3892
02:13:38,788 --> 02:13:39,490
So by adding restrictions, you

3893
02:13:39,490 --> 02:13:40,190
are now limiting their access

3894
02:13:40,190 --> 02:13:43,527
to get to and from school.

3895
02:13:43,527 --> 02:13:44,228
Thank you.

3896
02:13:44,228 --> 02:13:44,928
>> All right. Thank you, MR.

3897
02:13:44,928 --> 02:13:47,631
PRESIDENT. It's our last art.

3903
02:14:01,711 --> 02:14:02,746
>> Good Evening. City

3904
02:14:02,746 --> 02:14:03,680
COUNCILMAN Name is Jay Thomas

3905
02:14:03,680 --> 02:14:05,316
Leonard by addresses on file.

3906
02:14:05,316 --> 02:14:07,250
This will be quick as well. I

3907
02:14:07,250 --> 02:14:09,386
do want to come in support of

3908
02:14:09,386 --> 02:14:11,255
26, 5, 7, 1, Homelessness is

3909
02:14:11,255 --> 02:14:12,389
close to my heart ace live in

3910
02:14:12,389 --> 02:14:13,123
the riverside area for many

3911
02:14:13,123 --> 02:14:13,791
years. And I got very familiar

3912
02:14:13,791 --> 02:14:16,460
with a lot of the transient

3913
02:14:16,460 --> 02:14:17,194
population over there. On a

3914
02:14:17,194 --> 02:14:18,595
first-name basis with a lot of

3915
02:14:18,595 --> 02:14:21,332
people in the area for many

3916
02:14:21,332 --> 02:14:22,320
years. They looked out for me.

3917
02:14:22,320 --> 02:14:25,235
And so any initiatives that I

3918
02:14:25,235 --> 02:14:26,200
see come up where we are

3919
02:14:26,200 --> 02:14:28,200
helping transit transition

3920
02:14:29,840 --> 02:14:31,410
people away from homelessness.

3921
02:14:31,410 --> 02:14:32,910
I support wholeheartedly. I do

3922
02:14:32,910 --> 02:14:33,577
also reminder as we look at

3923
02:14:33,577 --> 02:14:34,311
these transitional policies

3924
02:14:34,311 --> 02:14:35,746
and hopefully continue to grow

3925
02:14:35,746 --> 02:14:38,146
these programs. Remember that?

3926
02:14:38,782 --> 02:14:39,583
Not everyone who is unhoused

3927
02:14:39,583 --> 02:14:40,317
is on the street. There are a

3928
02:14:40,317 --> 02:14:42,653
lot of people who are sleeping

3929
02:14:42,653 --> 02:14:43,454
in their cars, their families.

3930
02:14:43,454 --> 02:14:47,540
So just please keep that in

3931
02:14:47,191 --> 02:14:48,158
mind as you do continue to

3932
02:14:48,158 --> 02:14:49,360
grow these programs and

3933
02:14:49,360 --> 02:14:50,494
hopefully continue to help our

3934
02:14:50,494 --> 02:14:51,228
unhoused population transition

3935
02:14:51,228 --> 02:14:53,663

02:14:53,663 --> 02:14:54,298

Name is Jamie Thomas my

4003
02:17:15,973 --> 02:17:19,100
addresses on file. I am here

4004
02:17:19,100 --> 02:17:19,710

again in full support of this,

4008

I do believe in supporting our

4009
02:17:27,251 --> 02:17:27,919
military by creating an

4010
02:17:27,919 --> 02:17:29,487
ordinance that specifically

4011
02:17:29,487 --> 02:17:31,723
encourages the creation of new

4012
02:17:31,723 --> 02:17:32,356
jobs specifically for veterans

4013
02:17:32,356 --> 02:17:33,570
and active-duty military

4014
02:17:33,570 --> 02:17:34,759
service in Duval County. This

4015
02:17:34,759 --> 02:17:36,961

4016
02:17:36,961 --> 02:17:37,628
diversity, equity and

4017
02:17:37,628 --> 02:17:40,628

4020
02:17:44,102 --> 02:17:45,436
review. And I remember last

4021
02:17:45,436 --> 02:17:47,805
year's budget review and some

4022
02:17:47,805 --> 02:17:50,942
of the stuff that you all set

4023
02:17:50,942 --> 02:17:53,377
in that review. So keep that

02:19:06,518 --> 02:19:08,518
We're online. 47 2026. There's

4060
02:19:09,186 --> 02:19:11,586
0, 5, 7, have one speaker card

4061
02:19:15,159 --> 02:19:16,394
Travis Leonard.

4062
02:19:16,394 --> 02:19:17,950
>> Good evening. City

4063
02:19:17,950 --> 02:19:17,795
COUNCILMAN. A mission try to

4064
02:19:17,795 --> 02:19:20,131
slander my address on file is

4065
02:19:20,131 --> 02:19:23,268
my last time up here. Promise

4066
02:19:23,268 --> 02:19:25,170
I support 26, 5, 7, 9, also

4067
02:19:25,170 --> 02:19:26,938
maybe like we didn't you come

4068
02:19:26,938 --> 02:19:27,672
last council meeting and

4069
02:19:27,672 --> 02:19:28,639
oppose removing something from

4070
02:19:28,639 --> 02:19:30,908
the noncompliance list. You'd

4071
02:19:30,908 --> 02:19:32,777
be correct. So the reason I do

4072
02:19:32,777 --> 02:19:34,446
support removing the a

4073
02:19:34,446 --> 02:19:35,180
foundation where I did not,

4074
02:19:35,180 --> 02:19:36,681
the fop foundations because in

4075
02:19:36,681 --> 02:19:38,749
the bill summary it was

4076
02:19:38,749 --> 02:19:41,152
explained to me what happened

4077
02:19:41,152 --> 02:19:42,887
and the remedies this

4078
02:19:42,887 --> 02:19:45,287
foundation is taking to

4079
02:19:45,757 --> 02:19:46,558
rectify what put them on the

4080
02:19:46,558 --> 02:19:48,293
noncompliance list and telling

4081
02:19:48,293 --> 02:19:49,661
My understanding is there are

4082
02:19:49,661 --> 02:19:50,361
several entities on the

4083
02:19:50,361 --> 02:19:52,761
noncompliance list that will

4084
02:19:53,364 --> 02:19:54,980
probably be getting similar

4085
02:19:54,980 --> 02:19:55,567
bills about. So if you want me

4086
02:19:55,567 --> 02:19:57,936
to come and support, we have

4087
02:19:57,936 --> 02:19:59,905
to do is out in the details.

4088
02:19:59,905 --> 02:20:01,306
Otherwise I will be up here

4089
02:20:01,306 --> 02:20:03,107
posing, but as I said for 26,

4090
02:20:03,107 --> 02:20:04,543
5, 7, 9, I do support. Thank

4091
02:20:04,543 --> 02:20:06,943
you. Last becomes PRESIDENT

4092
02:20:07,245 --> 02:20:08,113
Spoke very close.

4093
02:20:08,113 --> 02:20:10,113
>> We're going on. 48 2026

02:20:10,982 --> 02:20:12,982
Dash, 0, 5, 8, 0, app. One

4095
02:20:17,990 --> 02:20:20,390
Speaker card John j

4096
02:20:22,940 --> 02:20:22,761
>> Hello. I am John Jay New

4097
02:20:22,761 --> 02:20:24,761
83. 56 past merge actual

4098
02:20:26,531 --> 02:20:27,232
Florida 3, 2, 2, 1, 6, and

4099
02:20:27,232 --> 02:20:27,967
city council district 4 cpac

4100
02:20:27,967 --> 02:20:29,967
planning District 3 school

4101
02:20:30,702 --> 02:20:33,702
board district 3. And so this

4102
02:20:36,740 --> 02:20:38,777
is an ordinance pro, putting

4103
02:20:38,777 --> 02:20:39,444
750,000 from the multi-year

4104
02:20:39,444 --> 02:20:40,912

deep Bottom Creek and district

4108
02:20:49,955 --> 02:20:51,356
6. Now it's an average

4109
02:20:51,356 --> 02:20:54,956
finance, but not in more ways.

4110
02:20:56,280 --> 02:20:57,162
And I fully support it. And at

4111
02:20:57,162 --> 02:20:57,896
the same time, you know, we

4112
02:20:57,896 --> 02:21:00,465
just had watched the debate on

4113
02:21:00,465 --> 02:21:03,735
that. Let me just say for a

4114
02:21:03,735 --> 02:21:07,935
year. So in order to make this

4115
02:21:08,400 --> 02:21:11,400
happen, run and mend. The 26

4116
02:21:11,543 --> 02:21:12,244
to 35 year Cip capital

4117
02:21:12,244 --> 02:21:14,613

4118
02:21:14,613 --> 02:21:15,514
with cmp, you can do anything

4119
02:21:15,514 --> 02:21:17,315
you know, with the cip.

4120
02:21:17,315 --> 02:21:19,715
There's so much flexibility

4121
02:21:20,652 --> 02:21:23,355
when it comes to that. And

4122
02:21:23,355 --> 02:21:24,590
that's why with the cpac 6 e

4123
02:21:24,590 --> 02:21:27,726
packs. So even let last night,

4124
02:21:27,726 --> 02:21:31,326
cpac. There was even just the

4125
02:21:33,198 --> 02:21:35,500
discussion. A waterway come

4126
02:21:35,500 --> 02:21:36,735
access component. This using a

4127
02:21:36,735 --> 02:21:40,335
cip. So anyway, I just wanted

4128
02:21:41,540 --> 02:21:42,441
to speak to that full support

4129
02:21:42,441 --> 02:21:43,676
of it. And congratulations,

4130
02:21:43,676 --> 02:21:46,760

4226
02:24:59,672 --> 02:25:02,672
with this. You know, relating

4227
02:25:02,908 --> 02:25:03,609

4230
02:25:11,284 --> 02:25:11,985
Really just want to speak. I

4231
02:25:11,985 --> 02:25:14,520
thought this was very similar

4232
02:25:14,520 --> 02:25:15,221
to another piece of

4233
02:25:15,221 --> 02:25:15,921
legislation. Maybe it's, you

4234
02:25:15,921 --> 02:25:19,291
know, a lot and just go back

4235
02:25:19,291 --> 02:25:22,891
and just look. I can't tell

4236
02:25:23,296 --> 02:25:24,263
you how many times. The fact

4237
02:25:24,263 --> 02:25:27,263
that I signed the attendance

4238

go there's the Floor

4493
02:35:07,315 --> 02:35:08,160
Amendment. Okay. Great. First

4494
02:35:08,160 --> 02:35:08,584
and foremost. I just want to

4495
02:35:08,584 --> 02:35:11,319
say thank you to the

4496
02:35:11,319 --> 02:35:12,988
community. You guys have then

4497
02:35:12,988 --> 02:35:16,157
a lot of meetings. You've been

4498
02:35:16,157 --> 02:35:16,824
very organized these are the

4499
02:35:16,824 --> 02:35:19,224
folks that obviously handed

4500
02:35:19,460 --> 02:35:20,128
out the binders to everyone.

4501
02:35:20,128 --> 02:35:21,630
And this is this is a good

4502
02:35:21,630 --> 02:35:22,830
example. Just real quick

4503
02:35:22,830 --> 02:35:25,830
because unlike last year there

4504
02:35:28,670 --> 02:35:30,371
was a zoning and it got.

4505
02:35:30,371 --> 02:35:31,206
>> Changed into a more

4506
02:35:31,206 --> 02:35:34,206
acceptable zoning. So to speak

4507
02:35:35,777 --> 02:35:36,478
right next door and from that,

4508
02:35:36,478 --> 02:35:39,347
this group formed the Senate

4509
02:35:39,347 --> 02:35:40,150
is a neighborhood association

4510
02:35:40,150 --> 02:35:42,251
and they've got, you know,

4511
02:35:42,251 --> 02:35:43,618
officers now and this is this

4512
02:35:43,618 --> 02:35:44,319
is what you want to see from

4513
02:35:44,319 --> 02:35:45,530
your your communities in your

4514
02:35:45,530 --> 02:35:47,188
neighborhoods. We've got a lot

4515
02:35:47,188 --> 02:35:47,856
in San Marco. We've got Saint

4516
02:35:47,856 --> 02:35:50,256
Nicholas Riverside and all

4517
02:35:50,959 --> 02:35:51,693
those groups have that. And

4518
02:35:51,693 --> 02:35:52,393
it's and it's important. And I

4519
02:35:52,393 --> 02:35:54,620
just want to commend you guys

4520
02:35:54,620 --> 02:35:57,662
and say thank you so with

4521
02:35:58,334 --> 02:35:59,469
that, we were able to. Work

4522
02:35:59,469 --> 02:36:01,102
through a lot of items and the

4523
02:36:01,102 --> 02:36:02,838
floor amendment that I'm

4524
02:36:02,838 --> 02:36:06,438
offering tonight is kind of a

4525
02:36:06,942 --> 02:36:07,976
compilation of the conditions

4526
02:36:07,976 --> 02:36:09,478
that were set at all easy. So

4527
02:36:09,478 --> 02:36:10,612
we said all those conditions

4528
02:36:10,612 --> 02:36:14,212
easy and then we have a

4529
02:36:14,449 --> 02:36:15,450
revised site plan that

4530
02:36:15,450 --> 02:36:16,685
includes a 6 foot at minimum,

4531
02:36:16,685 --> 02:36:18,653
the 6 foot vinyl fence along

4532
02:36:18,653 --> 02:36:21,523
the front of the property as

4533
02:36:21,523 --> 02:36:22,157
well as a landscape. Buffer on

4534
02:36:22,157 --> 02:36:24,726
the outside of the fence

4535
02:36:24,726 --> 02:36:25,427
facing the street. That's

4536
02:36:25,427 --> 02:36:27,827
including the revised site

4537
02:36:28,463 --> 02:36:29,564
plan. And there is also revise

4538
02:36:29,564 --> 02:36:30,598
written description that is

4539
02:36:30,598 --> 02:36:31,600
going to have a high

4540
02:36:31,600 --> 02:36:34,000
restriction to 30 feet. So

4541
02:36:35,237 --> 02:36:35,871
that was included in there.

4542
02:36:35,871 --> 02:36:38,871
Maybe this Kenny is okay

4543
02:36:39,941 --> 02:36:41,409
you're coming down correctly.

4544
02:36:41,409 --> 02:36:42,244
And then it also the florman

4545
02:36:42,244 --> 02:36:44,146
also, like I said, includes

4546
02:36:44,146 --> 02:36:44,813
all of the other conditions

4547
02:36:44,813 --> 02:36:46,748
that are already using. So

4548
02:36:46,748 --> 02:36:49,651
with that, I make a motion to

4549
02:36:49,651 --> 02:36:50,120
approve or support for the

4550
02:36:50,120 --> 02:36:50,852
Foreman. Thank.

4551
02:36:50,852 --> 02:36:52,200
>> All right. We have a motion

4552
02:36:52,200 --> 02:36:52,687
a second on the Floor Give it

4553
02:36:52,687 --> 02:36:54,489
a second printing speakers

4554
02:36:54,489 --> 02:36:58,890
that want to join the queue.

4555
02:37:00,962 --> 02:37:02,962
Clarke

4556
02:37:05,434 --> 02:37:06,168
>> Thank you. PRESIDENT Helen

4557
02:37:06,168 --> 02:37:08,604
My concern to the PRESIDENT To

4558
02:37:08,604 --> 02:37:11,604
the council, my cousins that

4559
02:37:12,441 --> 02:37:13,842
they don't quite no. I know

4560
02:37:13,842 --> 02:37:14,409
you just gave them some

4561
02:37:14,409 --> 02:37:15,440
information. Council

4562
02:37:15,440 --> 02:37:15,978
representative for that

4563
02:37:15,978 --> 02:37:18,378
district, but they're still

4564
02:37:20,749 --> 02:37:22,751
not sure of what exactly is in

4565
02:37:22,751 --> 02:37:23,485
the amendment. So I'm asking

4566
02:37:23,485 --> 02:37:24,850
through the PRESIDENT To MISS

4567
02:37:24,850 --> 02:37:24,687
Plus, if you would just

4568
02:37:24,687 --> 02:37:27,870
actually read the Floor

4569
02:37:29,791 --> 02:37:30,492
Amendment. Verbatim. I'm so

4570
02:37:30,492 --> 02:37:33,492
does. Typically it's you. So

4571
02:37:36,640 --> 02:37:38,100
go right into it. So the floor

4572
02:37:38,100 --> 02:37:38,834
amendment will 2 things. It

4573
02:37:38,834 --> 02:37:39,535
will incorporate the

4574
02:37:39,535 --> 02:37:41,935
conditions that were approved

4575
02:37:42,571 --> 02:37:43,272

4576
02:37:43,272 --> 02:37:45,672

excuse me approved by the Ouc

4601
02:38:26,820 --> 02:38:26,883
Committee. The 2 additional

4602
02:38:26,883 --> 02:38:28,484
amendments that were being

4603
02:38:28,484 --> 02:38:30,884
proposed tonight is the

4604
02:38:31,119 --> 02:38:32,221

3. Those were both dated

4608
02:38:38,327 --> 02:38:39,280
AUGUST 10, 2026 because they

4609
02:38:39,280 --> 02:38:41,428
incorporate the changes that

4610
02:38:43,299 --> 02:38:43,832
were Easy committee and byes

4611
02:38:43,832 --> 02:38:44,499
written description

4612
02:38:44,499 --> 02:38:46,899
incorporates the change in

4613
02:38:47,536 --> 02:38:48,236
height from 35 feet to 30

4614
02:38:48,236 --> 02:38:48,939
feet. S discuss that they'll

4615
02:38:48,939 --> 02:38:49,738
use committee with that. I'll

4616
02:38:49,738 --> 02:38:53,938
turn it back over to you. All

4617
02:38:54,477 --> 02:38:55,778
right. Clipper. Thank you

4618
02:38:55,778 --> 02:38:57,713
chair with that. I hope that

4619
02:38:57,713 --> 02:39:00,583
the community has a little bit

4620
02:39:00,583 --> 02:39:01,684
of understanding of what the

4621
02:39:01,684 --> 02:39:03,684
amendments are.

4622
02:39:04,620 --> 02:39:05,321
>> I did attend that use e so

4623
02:39:05,321 --> 02:39:06,255
it seemed as if the community

4624
02:39:06,255 --> 02:39:06,923
and the applicant's

4625
02:39:06,923 --> 02:39:08,291
representative had come to

4626
02:39:08,291 --> 02:39:10,126
some type of consensus. So

4627
02:39:10,126 --> 02:39:12,862
with that, I'm going. You

4628
02:39:12,862 --> 02:39:13,729
know, the rest of my time.

4629
02:39:13,729 --> 02:39:14,429
Thank you.

4630
02:39:14,429 --> 02:39:15,310
>> Thank you, ma'am. We also

4631
02:39:15,310 --> 02:39:18,310
have a next MISTER Matt

4632
02:39:19,435 --> 02:39:21,704
Carlucci in the Queue. Thank

4633
02:39:21,704 --> 02:39:23,839
you, MR. PRESIDENT up. Want to

4634
02:39:23,839 --> 02:39:24,474
ask the question now the of

4635
02:39:24,474 --> 02:39:27,276
the sponsor of the Floor

4636
02:39:27,276 --> 02:39:29,276
Amendment. The other

4637
02:39:31,313 --> 02:39:32,515
COUNCILMAN Carlucci the vinyl

4638
02:39:32,515 --> 02:39:35,651
fence is that on the Old Kings

4639
02:39:35,651 --> 02:39:38,651
Road in front, the sub

4640
02:39:38,688 --> 02:39:41,688
divisional Kings was any room

4641
02:39:43,920 --> 02:39:45,795
or any consideration to? Any

4642
02:39:45,795 --> 02:39:48,195
plantings of oak trees,

4643
02:39:51,701 --> 02:39:53,569
perhaps and at various space

4644
02:39:53,569 --> 02:39:56,405
you know, any spread out. This

4645
02:39:56,405 --> 02:40:00,605
is a part along the front of

4646
02:40:00,876 --> 02:40:02,110
that. That's that fence line.

4647
02:40:02,110 --> 02:40:05,110
Right? Palm trees. No, I'm

4648
02:40:05,481 --> 02:40:06,182
just kidding. Inside Joe, that

4649
02:40:06,182 --> 02:40:09,352
the joke there is I can stay

4650
02:40:09,352 --> 02:40:12,952
in palm trees right? So yet

4651
02:40:13,956 --> 02:40:14,591
there So there's the fence

4652
02:40:14,591 --> 02:40:15,291
that's gonna be the first

4653
02:40:15,291 --> 02:40:17,426
buffer for the backyard. And

4654
02:40:17,426 --> 02:40:20,426
then outside of that, there's

4655
02:40:21,931 --> 02:40:22,565
going to some type of tree and

4656
02:40:22,565 --> 02:40:25,565
and shrub like by burns,

4657
02:40:25,735 --> 02:40:26,402
whatever they can grow high on

4658
02:40:26,402 --> 02:40:27,690
the trees are designated on

4659
02:40:27,690 --> 02:40:30,690
the site plan, MR. Harden,

4660
02:40:30,340 --> 02:40:31,607
correct me if I'm wrong, but

4661
02:40:31,607 --> 02:40:33,610
we didn't want to arbitrarily

4662
02:40:33,610 --> 02:40:34,277
pick a certain type of tree

4663
02:40:34,277 --> 02:40:35,110
because it's going to be in

4664
02:40:35,110 --> 02:40:38,110
that buffer where the sidewalk

4665
02:40:38,140 --> 02:40:40,216
is in the utilities are so

4666
02:40:40,216 --> 02:40:40,983
we're kind of let the

4667
02:40:40,983 --> 02:40:41,518
landscape architects figure

4668
02:40:41,518 --> 02:40:42,151
that out. That's my

4669
02:40:42,151 --> 02:40:44,551
understanding of the site

4670
02:40:45,121 --> 02:40:45,855
plan. How it is right now. Ok?

4671
02:40:45,855 --> 02:40:48,325
Thank you, MR. CHAIRMAN MISTER

4672
02:40:48,325 --> 02:40:48,992
PRESIDENT, can I MR. Harden

4673
02:40:48,992 --> 02:40:51,392
question plays. Yes, okay.

4674
02:40:51,527 --> 02:40:52,628
Thank you. Richard. If you

4675
02:40:52,628 --> 02:40:55,865
want to come to that Bowden,

4676
02:40:55,865 --> 02:40:58,865
please. As well as your

4677
02:41:08,478 --> 02:41:09,179
question. Think of the vinyl I

4678
02:41:09,179 --> 02:41:11,213
think that's a nice manatee.

4679
02:41:11,213 --> 02:41:14,813
As long as nobody damages and

4680
02:41:17,553 --> 02:41:19,656
so forth but and thinking I do

4681
02:41:19,656 --> 02:41:20,390
want to get into amending the

4682
02:41:20,390 --> 02:41:20,990
floor plan, a floor amendment.

4683
02:41:20,990 --> 02:41:23,990
I don't do that. And

4684
02:41:25,270 --> 02:41:26,763
>> I like I I'm sure you but

4685
02:41:26,763 --> 02:41:30,600
but I but I like Things that

4686
02:41:30,600 --> 02:41:31,467
add value. And and I like

4687
02:41:31,467 --> 02:41:34,467
cooperation in boy's been that

4688
02:41:35,105 --> 02:41:36,139
type a person I just want to

4689
02:41:36,139 --> 02:41:37,473
ask if there would be some

4690
02:41:37,473 --> 02:41:38,241
kind of commitment on your

4691
02:41:38,241 --> 02:41:40,241
behalf. The builders

4692
02:41:40,877 --> 02:41:41,611
developers have behalf. There

4693
02:41:41,611 --> 02:41:45,281
are a lot of oak trees on this

4694
02:41:45,281 --> 02:41:45,882
piece property. Large oak

4695
02:41:45,882 --> 02:41:46,616
trees. And I know that

4696
02:41:46,616 --> 02:41:47,317
couldn't be say because of the

4697
02:41:47,317 --> 02:41:49,317
development configuration so

4698
02:41:50,870 --> 02:41:51,555
forth. But I thought it would

4699
02:41:51,555 --> 02:41:55,755
be a good thing there are some

4700
02:41:56,626 --> 02:41:57,660
nice trees planted in front on

4701
02:41:57,660 --> 02:42:01,260
the Old Kings road side. If

4702
02:42:02,465 --> 02:42:05,465
there's room spaces, you know,

4703
02:42:06,169 --> 02:42:09,406
down that line of that of the

4704
02:42:09,406 --> 02:42:10,140
fence, the vinyl fence. That

4705
02:42:10,140 --> 02:42:12,241
would make a nice presentation

4706
02:42:12,241 --> 02:42:15,841
that was softened a bit and

4707
02:42:16,779 --> 02:42:17,480
viber domes, whatever. But but

4708
02:42:17,480 --> 02:42:18,348
that would take a commitment

4709
02:42:18,348 --> 02:42:21,348
because don't want to amend

4710
02:42:22,886 --> 02:42:24,254
this tonight. Because in that

4711
02:42:24,254 --> 02:42:25,789
could cause gymnastics that we

4712
02:42:25,789 --> 02:42:26,523
don't want. I want to get

4713
02:42:26,523 --> 02:42:28,391
into, but I would like to have

4714
02:42:28,391 --> 02:42:29,893
a commitment that. And you

4715
02:42:29,893 --> 02:42:31,761
would meet with the neighbors

4716
02:42:31,761 --> 02:42:34,761
and with the COUNCILMAN To

4717
02:42:35,232 --> 02:42:36,199
make that happen. I gotta tell

4718
02:42:36,199 --> 02:42:39,199
ya met with some neighbors.

4719
02:42:39,235 --> 02:42:41,235
They're heartbroken. They're

4720
02:42:43,807 --> 02:42:45,208
not up here cause and effect.

4721
02:42:45,208 --> 02:42:45,608
Their their district council

4722
02:42:45,608 --> 02:42:45,682
renewed 3 d#

4723
02:42:45,682 --> 02:42:45,773
#

4724
02:42:45,773 --> 02:42:47,773
#

4725
02:42:47,777 --> 02:42:48,678
good job for

02:42:48,678 --> 02:42:49,379

4730
02:42:53,283 --> 02:42:53,950
>> I know the District Council

4731
02:42:53,950 --> 02:42:55,452

4735
02:43:01,892 --> 02:43:03,960
of zonings with you over the

4736
02:43:03,960 --> 02:43:05,862
years, would you just make a

4737
02:43:05,862 --> 02:43:06,997
commitment a day with them

4738
02:43:06,997 --> 02:43:07,865
make them that I commented

4739
02:43:07,865 --> 02:43:08,798

02:43:10,667 --> 02:43:13,670
interrupting you. Yeah. Got

4744
02:43:15,939 --> 02:43:16,639
it. Would you make that

4745
02:43:16,639 --> 02:43:19,639
commitment was large to treat

4746
02:43:22,245 --> 02:43:25,480
me like if you Jimmy. Okay,

4747
02:43:25,480 --> 02:43:25,915
yes, I will. I commit to work

02:43:25,915 --> 02:43:27,160
with you, but Make Nate with

4749
02:43:27,160 --> 02:43:29,987
no to work with the neighbors

4750
02:43:29,987 --> 02:43:31,321
and the developer to plant

4751
02:43:31,321 --> 02:43:33,756
some trees along the front of

4752
02:43:33,756 --> 02:43:34,391
the gate on King's road side,

4753
02:43:34,391 --> 02:43:37,391
some decent size of trees

4754
02:43:39,796 --> 02:43:40,397
place. Yes, I will work with

4755
02:43:40,397 --> 02:43:42,397
the district COUNCILMAN

4756
02:43:42,499 --> 02:43:45,101
Whoever you want work with.

4757
02:43:45,101 --> 02:43:47,804
That was addition, he added on

4758
02:43:47,804 --> 02:43:48,672
the neighbors didn't discuss.

4759
02:43:48,672 --> 02:43:51,672
There were some editions such

4760
02:43:52,609 --> 02:43:53,310
as the height limit that

4761
02:43:53,310 --> 02:43:53,977
MISTER Carlucci propose that

4762
02:43:53,977 --> 02:43:55,977
the neighbor's originally

4763
02:43:56,780 --> 02:43:57,981
didn't want. He added those

4764
02:43:57,981 --> 02:44:00,381
back inside putting trees

4765
02:44:03,420 --> 02:44:04,521
outside of the wall was one of

4766
02:44:04,521 --> 02:44:07,424
those items. I will tell you

4767
02:44:07,424 --> 02:44:08,125
trees not going survive that

4768
02:44:08,125 --> 02:44:09,526
location because there's not

4769
02:44:09,526 --> 02:44:11,529
water co into it. There. There

4770
02:44:11,529 --> 02:44:12,429
are some trees and they

4771
02:44:12,429 --> 02:44:14,698
survive. I'm thinking that

4772
02:44:14,698 --> 02:44:16,767
some of the native volunteers

4773
02:44:16,767 --> 02:44:19,167
and there's an additional 10

4774
02:44:20,737 --> 02:44:21,605
feet southerly of the 20 feet

4775
02:44:21,605 --> 02:44:24,605
that we are already northerly

4776
02:44:25,142 --> 02:44:25,876
of the road where there's room

4777
02:44:25,876 --> 02:44:26,543
for for Theresa Live. If there

4778
02:44:26,543 --> 02:44:28,979
are some trees and there we

4779
02:44:28,979 --> 02:44:31,515
will move guys. But school

4780
02:44:31,515 --> 02:44:32,215
board is going to live for us.

4781
02:44:32,215 --> 02:44:35,218
The property in a certain way

4782
02:44:35,218 --> 02:44:36,887
to certain manner. They've got

4783
02:44:36,887 --> 02:44:39,887
the obligation to raise the

4784
02:44:39,957 --> 02:44:41,725

4785
02:44:41,725 --> 02:44:44,280

4786
02:44:44,280 --> 02:44:45,930

4787
02:44:45,930 --> 02:44:46,964
we're willing to try to

4788
02:44:46,964 --> 02:44:47,698
resolve that issue. For

4789
02:44:47,698 --> 02:44:50,698
proceed, MR. Name and address.

4790
02:44:51,268 --> 02:44:52,603
Please. Paul, hard. 43 would

4792
02:44:55,839 --> 02:44:58,839
Okay. Well, I don't Spanish

4793
02:44:59,343 --> 02:45:00,478
that's all I was asking. If

4794
02:45:00,478 --> 02:45:01,212
you donate, you have to put

4795
02:45:01,212 --> 02:45:05,148
them on the other side of the

4796
02:45:05,148 --> 02:45:07,170
fence. Whatever I would like

4797
02:45:07,170 --> 02:45:08,190
to see a row of trees along

4798
02:45:08,190 --> 02:45:09,787
that side. I'm very familiar

4799
02:45:09,787 --> 02:45:10,687
with that area. Just like you

4800
02:45:10,687 --> 02:45:13,490
are. We've both grown up in

4801
02:45:13,490 --> 02:45:15,225
that area. We know it and I

4802
02:45:15,225 --> 02:45:16,560
think it would be a nice

4803
02:45:16,560 --> 02:45:18,262
addition. And and I'm sure

4804
02:45:18,262 --> 02:45:19,296
that the district COUNCILMAN

4805
02:45:19,296 --> 02:45:19,997
Has brought fine with that

4806
02:45:19,997 --> 02:45:22,997
sounds like he's already made

4807
02:45:23,701 --> 02:45:24,368
the suggestion. I am an

4808
02:45:24,368 --> 02:45:26,368

4809
02:45:26,370 --> 02:45:28,606

4924
02:49:35,153 --> 02:49:37,155
90 Welles actionable for a 3

4925
02:49:37,155 --> 02:49:39,555
to 2, 3, 4, here today to

4926
02:49:39,691 --> 02:49:40,392
speak about the trailer park

4927
02:49:40,392 --> 02:49:42,627
that they have listed on this

4928
02:49:42,627 --> 02:49:43,861
ordinance yellow water.

4929
02:49:43,861 --> 02:49:46,497
There's no exit from yellow

4930
02:49:46,497 --> 02:49:47,632
water got come from well road.

4931
02:49:47,632 --> 02:49:48,300
Which Wells Road is only a

4932
02:49:48,300 --> 02:49:51,203
mile long, not even a mile

4933
02:49:51,203 --> 02:49:54,539
long. It has a wooden bridge

4934
02:49:54,539 --> 02:49:57,742
to have to cross. It has not

4935
02:49:57,742 --> 02:50:00,142
been updated years. And

4936
02:50:00,545 --> 02:50:02,800
there's no turnaround at root.

4937
02:50:02,800 --> 02:50:02,781
So it's going to be really

4938
02:50:02,781 --> 02:50:03,982
impossible to bring concrete

4939
02:50:03,982 --> 02:50:07,582
trucks stuff to do what they

4940
02:50:08,653 --> 02:50:10,755
are anticipate. What I'd like

4941
02:50:10,755 --> 02:50:13,755
to do is request this

4942
02:50:15,293 --> 02:50:16,962
committee. Paul's. The

4943
02:50:16,962 --> 02:50:17,662
construction on already

4944
02:50:17,662 --> 02:50:18,363
boulevard. All those housing

4945
02:50:18,363 --> 02:50:20,763
projects that you're putting

4946
02:50:21,934 --> 02:50:25,534
out there. Until you can get.

4947
02:50:26,705 --> 02:50:29,374
Norrie Boulevard. Or lying and

4948
02:50:29,374 --> 02:50:30,410
upgraded, which I understand

4949
02:50:30,410 --> 02:50:32,577
COUNCILMAN Was on tv, some

4950
02:50:32,577 --> 02:50:33,244
cost over 300 million dollars

4951
02:50:33,244 --> 02:50:34,145
to get it done. And I think

4952
02:50:34,145 --> 02:50:37,150
it'll be a lot more than that.

4953
02:50:37,150 --> 02:50:37,683
The time it's done. And you

4954
02:50:37,683 --> 02:50:41,283
don't have the funds to do

4955
02:50:41,319 --> 02:50:42,540
that. It's already a safety

4956
02:50:42,540 --> 02:50:45,540
hazard to go down North

4957
02:50:46,758 --> 02:50:47,492
Boulevard to 301. Considering

4958
02:50:47,492 --> 02:50:50,128
the buses that have to stop on

4959
02:50:50,128 --> 02:50:50,895
their. It's crazy what you're

4960
02:50:50,895 --> 02:50:54,495
doing out there until you get

4961
02:50:54,599 --> 02:50:55,300
the infrastructure. I don't

4962
02:50:55,300 --> 02:50:55,968
believe we have the water to

4963
02:50:55,968 --> 02:50:58,968
schools, sewage and all the

4964
02:50:59,237 --> 02:51:01,206
other stuff. To take your all

4965
02:51:01,206 --> 02:51:02,730
the subdivisions that letting

4966
02:51:02,730 --> 02:51:03,908
he's outside. Developers come

4967
02:51:03,908 --> 02:51:07,508
in here and build and going

4968
02:51:09,180 --> 02:51:10,348
leave you. Have to maintain

4969
02:51:10,348 --> 02:51:12,250
stuff. I heard the lady, but

4970
02:51:12,250 --> 02:51:15,250
the cash bond. It won't. 19

4971
02:51:16,287 --> 02:51:18,122
inch pond in there. He's going

4972
02:51:18,122 --> 02:51:18,757
maintain that once they put it

4973
02:51:18,757 --> 02:51:20,391
in there like the rest of

4974
02:51:20,391 --> 02:51:24,591
that, I does all over the the

4975
02:51:26,565 --> 02:51:28,965
county. Live there 50 years.

4976
02:51:30,268 --> 02:51:30,969
And this is all with plan.

4977
02:51:30,969 --> 02:51:31,636
It's while dealing with paper

4978
02:51:31,636 --> 02:51:34,272
company owned all that out

4979
02:51:34,272 --> 02:51:37,272
there. All that water that

4980
02:51:37,476 --> 02:51:38,110
putting this trailer park. All

4981
02:51:38,110 --> 02:51:40,612
that drainage has to come

4982
02:51:40,612 --> 02:51:42,881
through there. And eventually

4983
02:51:42,881 --> 02:51:43,515
gets to yellow Water Creek,

4984
02:51:43,515 --> 02:51:45,915
which eventually gets the

4985
02:51:46,180 --> 02:51:48,418
Black Creek. Which eventually

4986
02:51:49,988 --> 02:51:53,588
get to. The Saint Johns River.

4987
02:51:54,793 --> 02:51:55,461
And if you have. Low tide,

4988
02:51:55,461 --> 02:51:59,610
then it'll flown out to the

4989
02:51:59,231 --> 02:51:59,965
Atlantic. Well, sooner or

4990
02:51:59,965 --> 02:52:03,565
later, we're going to get that

4991
02:52:03,569 --> 02:52:04,269
100 year flood. And I've

4992
02:52:04,269 --> 02:52:05,204
already seen 3 in my lifetime

4993
02:52:05,204 --> 02:52:05,971
out there where we couldn't

4994
02:52:05,971 --> 02:52:08,707
get up yet tenure at Boulevard

4995
02:52:08,707 --> 02:52:11,309
for the water. One across Cuba

4996
02:52:11,309 --> 02:52:13,412
says couldn't run. So we're

4997
02:52:13,412 --> 02:52:15,413
going to get that flood. And

4998
02:52:15,413 --> 02:52:18,160
all peoples already out there.

4999
02:52:18,160 --> 02:52:21,616
I don't get flooded out. These

5000
02:52:22,822 --> 02:52:23,522
new subdivisions. The rain and

5001
02:52:23,522 --> 02:52:26,580
field or 3 foot high bill put

5002
02:52:26,580 --> 02:52:26,792
the House on. They'll probably

5003
02:52:26,792 --> 02:52:30,280
be safe. But we're done. Going

5004
02:52:30,280 --> 02:52:30,729
to get.

5005
02:52:30,729 --> 02:52:31,397
>> All right. Thanks are our

5006
02:52:31,397 --> 02:52:34,397
next speaker will be Nancy

5007
02:52:38,137 --> 02:52:40,500
weeks.

5008
02:52:40,500 --> 02:52:41,140
>> Good evening. My name is

5009
02:52:41,140 --> 02:52:43,540
Nancy Weeks live at 1, 6, 9,

5010
02:52:46,211 --> 02:52:48,281
7, 0 Wells Road. Live within

5011
02:52:48,281 --> 02:52:49,414
350 feet of the proposed rv

5012
02:52:49,414 --> 02:52:50,982
park on Wells Road. And

5013
02:52:50,982 --> 02:52:53,382
amazingly, and only 5 others

5014
02:52:53,685 --> 02:52:54,853
of my neighbors were notified.

5015
02:52:54,853 --> 02:52:57,990
>> Of the proposed rv park our

5016
02:52:57,990 --> 02:52:59,859
street front of 25 families.

5017
02:52:59,859 --> 02:53:00,492
This proposal to rezone and

5018
02:53:00,492 --> 02:53:01,894
grant permission for this

5019
02:53:01,894 --> 02:53:03,894
particular development

5020
02:53:05,464 --> 02:53:06,132
ordinance 2, 0, 2, 6, 0, 5, to

5021
02:53:06,132 --> 02:53:08,900
4 has direct impact on this

5022
02:53:08,900 --> 02:53:09,602
whole West Side area from the

5023
02:53:09,602 --> 02:53:12,602
new first Coast Expressway to

5024
02:53:12,939 --> 02:53:14,606
highway 301, about one-fifth

5025
02:53:14,606 --> 02:53:14,873
of Duval County. Approximately

5026
02:53:14,873 --> 02:53:16,873
900

5027
02:53:21,113 --> 02:53:21,780
>> 18.

5028
02:53:21,780 --> 02:53:22,414
>> Square miles. Among the

5029
02:53:22,414 --> 02:53:24,814
plethora of reasons. This

5030
02:53:25,217 --> 02:53:26,285
should not be allowed is the

5031
02:53:26,285 --> 02:53:27,887
idea that only residents

5032
02:53:27,887 --> 02:53:30,887
within 350 feet of the project

5033
02:53:31,230 --> 02:53:31,723
have been notified and sent

5034
02:53:31,723 --> 02:53:34,393
images of what the applicant

5035
02:53:34,393 --> 02:53:35,600
has plans to do here with

5036
02:53:35,600 --> 02:53:37,460
invitations to speak for 3

5037
02:53:37,496 --> 02:53:39,532
minutes to this body. Most of

5038
02:53:39,532 --> 02:53:42,435
them have already made their

5039
02:53:42,435 --> 02:53:43,680
decision. The history of

5040
02:53:43,680 --> 02:53:43,936
Jacksonville planning and

5041
02:53:43,936 --> 02:53:45,936
economic growth, growth

5042
02:53:46,572 --> 02:53:48,574
decisions making body such as

5043
02:53:48,574 --> 02:53:49,808
yourself having to do with our

5044
02:53:49,808 --> 02:53:51,677
area in the government's

5045
02:53:51,677 --> 02:53:52,645
closing of Cecil Field as an

5046
02:53:52,645 --> 02:53:55,450
airbase when permission was

5047
02:53:56,482 --> 02:53:58,500
sought to have a time period

5048
02:53:58,500 --> 02:53:59,818
of 25 years where the planning

5049
02:53:59,818 --> 02:54:02,218
for an economic growth

5050
02:54:03,550 --> 02:54:04,423
commission would be allowed to

5051
02:54:04,423 --> 02:54:07,423
clean fill to some 400 plus

5052
02:54:08,827 --> 02:54:09,662
acres of wetlands site of the

5053
02:54:09,662 --> 02:54:11,830
Army Corps of Engineers report

5054
02:54:11,830 --> 02:54:12,465
of MARCH 1920, 19. I'm not

5055
02:54:12,465 --> 02:54:14,701
sure that permission was

5056
02:54:14,701 --> 02:54:16,735
granted to fill in our

5057
02:54:16,735 --> 02:54:19,839
wetlands. But my point is it

5058
02:54:19,839 --> 02:54:21,540
was sought for economic

5059
02:54:21,540 --> 02:54:22,508
development way back then our

5060
02:54:22,508 --> 02:54:24,508
planning authorities were

5061
02:54:25,478 --> 02:54:26,946
willing to sacrifice our

5062
02:54:26,946 --> 02:54:27,546
wetlands, which would affect

5063
02:54:27,546 --> 02:54:29,682
all of the Westside of

5064
02:54:29,682 --> 02:54:32,820
Jacksonville and beyond. When

5065
02:54:32,652 --> 02:54:33,919
is enough enough? We have

5066
02:54:33,919 --> 02:54:34,720
already on number building

5067
02:54:34,720 --> 02:54:36,622
projects right here, running

5068
02:54:36,622 --> 02:54:38,591
the traffic flow Normandy

5069
02:54:38,591 --> 02:54:39,659
Boulevard, which is an

5070
02:54:39,659 --> 02:54:40,259
evacuation route for our

5071
02:54:40,259 --> 02:54:41,794
community and all other

5072
02:54:41,794 --> 02:54:44,794
residents from the beaches and

5073
02:54:45,231 --> 02:54:45,931
time of emergency evacuation,

5074
02:54:45,931 --> 02:54:48,331
our intersection that yellow

5075
02:54:48,400 --> 02:54:49,769
water and Normandy is deadly.

5076
02:54:49,769 --> 02:54:51,871
Now we Normandy, the

5077
02:54:51,871 --> 02:54:53,339
beginnings of dozens of

5078
02:54:53,339 --> 02:54:55,108
development. When will we

5079
02:54:55,108 --> 02:54:55,941
pause to see what we have

5080
02:54:55,941 --> 02:54:58,941
already done to the wildlife

5081
02:54:59,612 --> 02:55:00,279
corridors and habitat is fwc

5082
02:55:00,279 --> 02:55:03,279
ever consulted about any of

5083
02:55:03,282 --> 02:55:05,250
this? Is there ever a window

5084
02:55:05,250 --> 02:55:07,119
between the tree cutting

5085
02:55:07,119 --> 02:55:09,519
Cypress head intrusion plans

5086
02:55:09,755 --> 02:55:11,591
to reroute creeks, water

5087
02:55:11,591 --> 02:55:13,591
management flow, water,

5088
02:55:13,726 --> 02:55:14,693
drainage and the plan for this

5089
02:55:14,693 --> 02:55:17,630
trailer park. There is a

5090
02:55:17,630 --> 02:55:18,564
detail of a 19 acre pond. The

5091
02:55:18,564 --> 02:55:21,234
sketch of up to the fence.

5092
02:55:21,234 --> 02:55:22,601
Rows of 3 of them. Neighbors

5093
02:55:22,601 --> 02:55:24,237
to what depth the debt and say

5094
02:55:24,237 --> 02:55:26,940
to move that amount of. From

5095
02:55:26,940 --> 02:55:28,708
where it is supposed to be in

5096
02:55:28,708 --> 02:55:31,708
the ground downhill toward the

5097
02:55:31,778 --> 02:55:34,778
creek where water drains built

5098
02:55:34,813 --> 02:55:35,849
up several feet. We don't know

5099
02:55:35,849 --> 02:55:38,250
how high will be and concrete

5100
02:55:38,250 --> 02:55:38,918
added to allow parking of

5101
02:55:38,918 --> 02:55:39,586
large vehicles.

5102
02:55:39,586 --> 02:55:41,986
>> Thank you, right. Thank

5103
02:55:43,289 --> 02:55:46,225
you. And next is. X is Jodi

5104
02:55:46,225 --> 02:55:46,792
Stanley. Yes.

5105
02:55:46,792 --> 02:55:49,192
>> Thank you for this

5106
02:55:50,396 --> 02:55:51,297
opportunity. And I my name is

5107
02:55:51,297 --> 02:55:54,834
Joe the Stanley. I reside at

5108
02:55:54,834 --> 02:55:55,735
707, Wells Road 3 to 2, 3, 4,

5109
02:55:55,735 --> 02:55:59,335
And I want to stand in

5110
02:55:59,806 --> 02:56:00,974
opposition to 2 to 605, to 4

5111
02:56:00,974 --> 02:56:02,508
inside the rezoning rezoning

5112
02:56:02,508 --> 02:56:03,176
know jersey, the criteria by

5113
02:56:03,176 --> 02:56:05,576
which planning zoning makes

5114
02:56:05,712 --> 02:56:07,647
decisions about rezoning. They

5115
02:56:07,647 --> 02:56:09,816
were listed after reading

5116
02:56:09,816 --> 02:56:10,416
those criteria. I cannot

5117
02:56:10,416 --> 02:56:12,416
understand why zoning

5118
02:56:12,452 --> 02:56:14,852
characters, zoning changes are

5119
02:56:16,880 --> 02:56:16,789
even being considered. And we

5120
02:56:16,789 --> 02:56:19,250
were informed their 5 basic

5121
02:56:19,250 --> 02:56:19,659
questions to be considered

5122
02:56:19,659 --> 02:56:22,659
had. The change has been

5123
02:56:22,996 --> 02:56:23,563
carefully thought out or is it

5124
02:56:23,563 --> 02:56:25,640
premature and whether

5125
02:56:25,640 --> 02:56:27,464
contribute to urban sparks

5126
02:56:28,835 --> 02:56:29,502
brawl we currently have at

5127
02:56:29,502 --> 02:56:31,171
least 45 big developments

5128
02:56:31,171 --> 02:56:33,571
within 3 miles of this

5129
02:56:34,174 --> 02:56:36,420
property. Hundreds of times.

5130
02:56:36,420 --> 02:56:36,709
We've already lost 400 acres

5131
02:56:36,709 --> 02:56:38,444
of the adjacent acreage on

5132
02:56:38,444 --> 02:56:41,444
that same property. On the

5133
02:56:42,348 --> 02:56:43,820
south side of the creek from

5134
02:56:43,820 --> 02:56:43,850
our back fence, all the way to

5135
02:56:43,850 --> 02:56:45,452
Normandy. Every single foot is

5136
02:56:45,452 --> 02:56:47,452
slated for development.

5137
02:56:48,221 --> 02:56:51,221
There's nothing left. This is

5138
02:56:51,691 --> 02:56:53,590
urban sprawl. Second question

5139
02:56:53,590 --> 02:56:55,950
was, does it create a spot

5140
02:56:55,950 --> 02:56:57,970
zone and isolated zone? The

5141
02:56:57,970 --> 02:56:59,398
distric and related to the

5142
02:56:59,398 --> 02:57:02,135
area. There are no rv parks

5143
02:57:02,135 --> 02:57:03,103
within 30 miles of their home.

5144
02:57:03,103 --> 02:57:05,104
And rv park is totally

5145
02:57:05,104 --> 02:57:06,406
inconsistent with the local

5146
02:57:06,406 --> 02:57:09,142
area and will stand in

5147
02:57:09,142 --> 02:57:10,477
isolation. Was this considered

5148
02:57:10,477 --> 02:57:11,144
in the decisions? Again, this

5149
02:57:11,144 --> 02:57:13,880
is not my criteria. This is

5150
02:57:13,880 --> 02:57:16,183
what is expected of those

5151
02:57:16,183 --> 02:57:18,583
making decisions use permitted

5152
02:57:19,180 --> 02:57:20,820
must be considered consistent

5153
02:57:20,820 --> 02:57:23,220
are compatible with the

5154
02:57:23,723 --> 02:57:24,457
existing land use and zoning

5155
02:57:24,457 --> 02:57:25,158
of adjacent and nearby

5156
02:57:25,158 --> 02:57:27,558
properties and general areas

5157
02:57:28,961 --> 02:57:29,663
and must not deviate from

5158
02:57:29,663 --> 02:57:32,630
established develop and logic

5159
02:57:32,650 --> 02:57:34,650
and orderly development

5160
02:57:34,835 --> 02:57:35,569
patterns, 10 acres on 5.10,

5161
02:57:35,569 --> 02:57:38,438
homes on 5 acres. And that

5162
02:57:38,438 --> 02:57:41,438
area would be acceptable. But

5163
02:57:42,750 --> 02:57:45,675
a rv park with 300 pads. On 50

5164
02:57:47,130 --> 02:57:48,348
acres is not nothing areas

5165
02:57:48,348 --> 02:57:49,382
like that. An rv park is in no

5166
02:57:49,382 --> 02:57:51,518
way resembles the area are

5167
02:57:51,518 --> 02:57:52,819
neighbor MISTER Bill, a 9

5168
02:57:52,819 --> 02:57:53,920
year-old man and who's lived

5169
02:57:53,920 --> 02:57:56,523
here many years will have the

5170
02:57:56,523 --> 02:57:58,658
hundreds of campers place

5171
02:57:58,658 --> 02:57:59,625
right on his West property

5172
02:57:59,625 --> 02:58:02,950
line with nothing but a sea of

5173
02:58:02,950 --> 02:58:04,765
campers to look at the 4th was

5174
02:58:04,765 --> 02:58:05,465
no significant impact upon

5175
02:58:05,465 --> 02:58:07,865
adjacent property values. We

5176
02:58:08,701 --> 02:58:10,904
know how that will go with 300

5177
02:58:10,904 --> 02:58:14,504
rv Park, capacity rv Park 5th.

5178
02:58:14,841 --> 02:58:15,575
The proposed rezoning. Will

5179
02:58:15,575 --> 02:58:17,577
not detract from the character

5180
02:58:17,577 --> 02:58:19,913
and quality of life in General

5181
02:58:19,913 --> 02:58:20,580
area and the neighborhood by

5182
02:58:20,580 --> 02:58:22,580
creating excessive traffic

5183
02:58:23,917 --> 02:58:24,651
noise, lights, etc, and other

5184
02:58:24,651 --> 02:58:27,510
deviations. The average family

5185
02:58:29,322 --> 02:58:31,824
has 2 cars, a 300 pad rv Park

5186
02:58:31,824 --> 02:58:32,493
could bring in 300 additional

5187
02:58:32,493 --> 02:58:34,893
vehicles in a neighborhood

5188
02:58:35,729 --> 02:58:36,362
that has about 40 excessive

5189
02:58:36,362 --> 02:58:38,762
lights there. Hundreds of

5190
02:58:40,133 --> 02:58:40,834
existing street lights. I

5191
02:58:40,834 --> 02:58:41,468
mean, they're just a handful

5192
02:58:41,468 --> 02:58:43,868
existing street lights on

5193
02:58:44,204 --> 02:58:46,273
wheels, really, very few yard

5194
02:58:46,273 --> 02:58:47,907
lights, additional 350 rv's

5195
02:58:47,907 --> 02:58:48,575
will bring in all kinds of

5196
02:58:48,575 --> 02:58:50,277
lights at Thank you, Sarah.

5197
02:58:50,277 --> 02:58:50,944
Next speaker is Jeremiah

5198
02:58:50,944 --> 02:58:51,644
Stanley. And that'll be our

5199
02:58:51,644 --> 02:58:54,440
last speaker. Was PRESIDENT.

5200
02:58:54,948 --> 02:58:57,348
All right. Good evening,

5201
02:58:58,719 --> 02:58:59,552
Distinguished Council members.

5202
02:58:59,552 --> 02:59:01,922
>> My name is Jeremiah

5203
02:59:01,922 --> 02:59:02,889
Stanley. I reside at 17, 0,

5204
02:59:02,889 --> 02:59:06,393
70. Well as road. My wife and

5205
02:59:06,393 --> 02:59:07,600
I are 3 boys. We bought this

5206
02:59:07,600 --> 02:59:09,460
property about 8 years ago.

5207
02:59:12,499 --> 02:59:13,567
Roughly 15 acres and this

5208
02:59:13,567 --> 02:59:14,501
proposal to add this rv park

5209
02:59:14,501 --> 02:59:15,369
will be right adjacent to our

5210
02:59:15,369 --> 02:59:17,769
property line across our

5211
02:59:19,173 --> 02:59:19,806
southern southern boundary. We

5212
02:59:19,806 --> 02:59:20,473
also were able to get my

5213
02:59:20,473 --> 02:59:23,473
parents who you just heard

5214
02:59:23,476 --> 02:59:25,179
from my dad. They were tired

5215
02:59:25,179 --> 02:59:25,779
and we move them onto our

5216
02:59:25,779 --> 02:59:26,947
property, hoping for a

5217
02:59:26,947 --> 02:59:29,350
peaceful way for them to live

5218
02:59:29,350 --> 02:59:31,451
out the rest of their life in

5219
02:59:31,451 --> 02:59:32,118
Duval County. And so as you

5220
02:59:32,118 --> 02:59:34,654
can imagine, we were super

5221
02:59:34,654 --> 02:59:35,322
surprised to see a proposal of

5222
02:59:35,322 --> 02:59:37,722
not neighborhoods. What we

5223
02:59:38,692 --> 02:59:40,293
anticipate unexpected, over

5224
02:59:40,293 --> 02:59:42,293
300 pads for recreational

5225
02:59:43,363 --> 02:59:45,599
vehicles to be part alongside

5226
02:59:45,599 --> 02:59:46,333
what we have as a green belt.

5227
02:59:46,333 --> 02:59:49,333
We've had established since we

5228
02:59:49,677 --> 02:59:49,753
moved there. It was Greenville

5229
02:59:49,753 --> 02:59:51,638
to before we actually move.

5230
02:59:51,638 --> 02:59:53,574
Then we have a cattle herd of

5231
02:59:53,574 --> 02:59:55,420
that between 20 and 40 cattle

5232
02:59:55,420 --> 02:59:56,810
with a cow calf operation that

5233
02:59:56,810 --> 02:59:57,678
we run. They're on the

5234
02:59:57,678 --> 03:00:01,278
property. And so my concern or

5235
03:00:01,982 --> 03:00:05,118
2 of them, one is how would

5236
03:00:05,118 --> 03:00:08,118
people expecting to come enjoy

5237
03:00:08,789 --> 03:00:09,423
rv park? Respond to active cow

5238
03:00:09,423 --> 03:00:11,823
calf operation right next

5239
03:00:11,959 --> 03:00:14,995
door. You can imagine this is

5240
03:00:14,995 --> 03:00:15,596
built an issue for conflict. I

5241
03:00:15,596 --> 03:00:17,831
know that my rights are

5242
03:00:17,831 --> 03:00:19,933
protected through the Florida

5243
03:00:19,933 --> 03:00:20,901
right to Farm Well, very well

5244
03:00:20,901 --> 03:00:22,903
aware of what I'm able to do.

5245
03:00:22,903 --> 03:00:23,571
We'll continue to do there.

5246
03:00:23,571 --> 03:00:26,507
But I know that to you all

5247
03:00:26,507 --> 03:00:27,174
will be doing with the issues

5248
03:00:27,174 --> 03:00:30,544
for years to come from the

5249
03:00:30,544 --> 03:00:32,179
complaints that will no doubt

5250
03:00:32,179 --> 03:00:33,614
come from rv's right up

5251
03:00:33,614 --> 03:00:36,216
against our property line. The

5252
03:00:36,216 --> 03:00:38,318
second one is in relation to

5253
03:00:38,318 --> 03:00:39,353
the pond that has been

5254
03:00:39,353 --> 03:00:40,540
proposed. A 10 acre pond

5255
03:00:40,540 --> 03:00:42,454
literally right alongside of

5256
03:00:43,156 --> 03:00:43,890
our property line. And my

5257
03:00:43,890 --> 03:00:46,893
concern is there is nothing in

5258
03:00:46,893 --> 03:00:49,763
the paperwork we received that

5259
03:00:49,763 --> 03:00:51,832
state's any kind of detail

5260
03:00:51,832 --> 03:00:53,801
about how the water for the

5261
03:00:53,801 --> 03:00:55,801
sewage from these 300,

5262
03:00:56,700 --> 03:00:56,603
something rv's will be

5263
03:00:56,603 --> 03:00:58,603
handled. Others new

5264
03:00:59,239 --> 03:00:59,941
information don't station or a

5265
03:00:59,941 --> 03:01:02,341
water treatment. Facility and

5266
03:01:02,577 --> 03:01:05,479
my concern is with farming

5267
03:01:05,479 --> 03:01:07,715
operation right next door.

5268
03:01:07,715 --> 03:01:08,816
What would happen if all which

5269
03:01:08,816 --> 03:01:10,884
somehow got into the pond, if

5270
03:01:10,884 --> 03:01:11,752
there was some type of issue

5271
03:01:11,752 --> 03:01:13,421
related to that getting into

5272
03:01:13,421 --> 03:01:15,156
our water system. And so I

5273
03:01:15,156 --> 03:01:17,240
just like this has been not

5274
03:01:17,240 --> 03:01:19,424
well thought out and

5275
03:01:20,927 --> 03:01:22,950
definitely doesn't come into

5276
03:01:22,950 --> 03:01:23,230
order with what is already

5277
03:01:23,230 --> 03:01:25,980
there in area that established

5278
03:01:25,980 --> 03:01:26,700
as a rule, agriculture area,

5279
03:01:26,700 --> 03:01:27,501
very little of that left here

5280
03:01:27,501 --> 03:01:30,501
within Duval County. We ought

5281
03:01:30,638 --> 03:01:33,340
to do better than this. Thank

5282
03:01:33,340 --> 03:01:34,241
you very Was our last speaker.

5283
03:01:34,241 --> 03:01:34,943

03:02:55,723 --> 03:02:56,490
serving on the council. That's

5329
03:02:56,490 --> 03:02:58,890
been 10 pending for 2 years

5330
03:02:58,959 --> 03:02:59,594
since its state of

5331
03:02:59,594 --> 03:03:00,261
introduction. Shelby

5332
03:03:00,261 --> 03:03:02,261
administratively, withdrawn

5333
03:03:02,563 --> 03:03:03,497
and removed from all agendas

5334
03:03:03,497 --> 03:03:04,165
by the chief of legislative

5335
03:03:04,165 --> 03:03:06,565
services unless the council

5336
03:03:07,601 --> 03:03:09,804
takes an action prior to its

5337
03:03:09,804 --> 03:03:10,938
withdrawal. So therefore,

5338
03:03:10,938 --> 03:03:12,674
today, legislative services

5339
03:03:12,674 --> 03:03:13,607
has marked the agenda to

5340
03:03:13,607 --> 03:03:15,142
reflect that it will be

5341
03:03:15,142 --> 03:03:15,843
administratively withdrawn. In

5342
03:03:15,843 --> 03:03:17,212
the instance, the council do

5343
03:03:17,212 --> 03:03:19,280
does desire to take some

5344
03:03:19,280 --> 03:03:19,980
action. If you do not take any

5345
03:03:19,980 --> 03:03:20,714
action this evening and I can

5346
03:03:20,714 --> 03:03:22,550
go through the options of that

5347
03:03:22,550 --> 03:03:24,185
MISTER PRESIDENT, if you would

5348
03:03:24,185 --> 03:03:25,530
like, then it will be

5349
03:03:25,530 --> 03:03:26,588
administratively withdrawn on

5350
03:03:26,588 --> 03:03:28,456
the 13th stated on your

5351
03:03:28,456 --> 03:03:30,759
agenda. Please do go through

5352
03:03:30,759 --> 03:03:32,600
the options. So the the rule

5353
03:03:32,600 --> 03:03:33,961
provides that the council can

5354
03:03:33,961 --> 03:03:35,630
take an action on a couple of

5355
03:03:35,630 --> 03:03:36,331
different actions.

5356
03:03:36,331 --> 03:03:37,465
>> The council can postpone

5357
03:03:37,465 --> 03:03:40,901
the bill to a date certain or

5358
03:03:40,901 --> 03:03:41,603
re refer to committees. In

5359
03:03:41,603 --> 03:03:43,104
that instance, it would only

5360
03:03:43,104 --> 03:03:44,139
allow for 60 additional days

5361
03:03:44,139 --> 03:03:45,720
for there to be some

5362
03:03:45,720 --> 03:03:45,873
disposition of the bill

5363
03:03:45,873 --> 03:03:48,750
through either the council or

5364
03:03:48,750 --> 03:03:50,145
the committee process and back

5365
03:03:50,145 --> 03:03:51,145
to council. The council can

5366
03:03:51,145 --> 03:03:53,281
take an action this evening to

5367
03:03:53,281 --> 03:03:54,810
withdraw the bill if they

5368
03:03:54,810 --> 03:03:55,183
choose to do so without to

5369
03:03:55,183 --> 03:03:55,883
take a formal action to

5370
03:03:55,883 --> 03:03:57,686
withdraw it rather than allow

5371
03:03:57,686 --> 03:03:59,587
it to be administratively

5372
03:03:59,587 --> 03:04:00,388
withdrawn or if a motion is

5373
03:04:00,388 --> 03:04:02,560
made to take up the bill. The

5374
03:04:02,560 --> 03:04:03,958
council can take up the bill

5375
03:04:03,958 --> 03:04:05,293
this evening. I will tell you

5376
03:04:05,293 --> 03:04:08,195
that the actions to take up

5377
03:04:08,195 --> 03:04:11,660
the bill this evening if it

5378
03:04:11,660 --> 03:04:12,660
gets moved or to or to

5379
03:04:12,660 --> 03:04:12,733
postpone the legislation. All

5380
03:04:12,733 --> 03:04:15,133
would require a two-thirds

5381
03:04:16,204 --> 03:04:16,772
vote of the council to

5382
03:04:16,772 --> 03:04:17,672
accomplish.

5383
03:04:17,672 --> 03:04:18,406
>> All right. Thank you, MR. 5

5384
03:04:18,406 --> 03:04:21,676

5385

Freeman, Thank you, MR.

5431
03:06:03,111 --> 03:06:04,179
PRESIDENT and I'll I'll be

5432
03:06:04,179 --> 03:06:05,480
supporting

5433
03:06:05,480 --> 03:06:06,214
>> This bill today, but I just

5434
03:06:06,214 --> 03:06:06,915
want to bring to the attention

5435
03:06:06,915 --> 03:06:10,515
of my colleagues. If you did

5436
03:06:10,551 --> 03:06:11,186
not watch committee, this was

5437
03:06:11,186 --> 03:06:12,220
a situation where I had a

5438
03:06:12,220 --> 03:06:14,620
meeting scheduled with the

5439
03:06:16,558 --> 03:06:17,325
fire chief during rules was

5440
03:06:17,325 --> 03:06:18,590
scheduled for that day. At 3

5441
03:06:18,590 --> 03:06:21,590
o'clock, it was canceled about

5442
03:06:22,640 --> 03:06:23,310
9.30, between 9, 30 10 as a

5443
03:06:23,310 --> 03:06:23,698
member of Finance committee.

5444
03:06:23,698 --> 03:06:24,533
Up on that a bit troubling

5445
03:06:24,533 --> 03:06:25,233
because I want to talk about

5446
03:06:25,233 --> 03:06:26,468
the budget. However, you also

5447
03:06:26,468 --> 03:06:29,370
see that there's a item here

5448
03:06:29,370 --> 03:06:32,174
in front of us. I was informed

5449
03:06:32,174 --> 03:06:32,841
at that time that via email

5450
03:06:32,841 --> 03:06:35,677
all meetings with the fire

5451
03:06:35,677 --> 03:06:38,547
chief. Having a member of the

5452
03:06:38,547 --> 03:06:39,615
administration in it. If you

5453
03:06:39,615 --> 03:06:42,500
go back and pull the tape, you

5454
03:06:42,500 --> 03:06:42,751
will see that. I stated that

5455
03:06:42,751 --> 03:06:43,618
is the first in the 10 years

5456
03:06:43,618 --> 03:06:47,218
that I've been here that I've

5457
03:06:47,722 --> 03:06:51,193
heard of that. I also stated.

5458
03:06:51,193 --> 03:06:53,962
That the previous fire Chiefs.

5459
03:06:53,962 --> 03:06:56,362
Chief Powers, Chief Wilson.

5460
03:06:56,998 --> 03:06:57,699
Our one ethnicity, one race. I

5461
03:06:57,699 --> 03:07:00,602
also stated that this current

5462
03:07:00,602 --> 03:07:04,202
one. And I'm going there and

5463
03:07:04,373 --> 03:07:05,607
I'm saying it trouble still.

5464
03:07:05,607 --> 03:07:06,307
Because when they announce

5465
03:07:06,307 --> 03:07:06,976
Houthis fire chief was going

5466
03:07:06,976 --> 03:07:07,676
to be, they said it must be

5467
03:07:07,676 --> 03:07:08,410
someone from a diverse

5468
03:07:08,410 --> 03:07:11,947
background. And I feel like I

5469
03:07:11,947 --> 03:07:13,515
don't speak up. I am doing a

5470
03:07:13,515 --> 03:07:14,216
disservice to all my little

5471
03:07:14,216 --> 03:07:17,860
man tease. From all walks of

5472
03:07:17,860 --> 03:07:18,720
life. I don't ever think their

5473
03:07:18,720 --> 03:07:20,956
voices should be silenced.

5474
03:07:20,956 --> 03:07:21,690
Now, I will say I had a

5475
03:07:21,690 --> 03:07:24,690
meeting today and I'm grateful

5476
03:07:25,393 --> 03:07:26,228
for it. I did not at root. I

5477
03:07:26,228 --> 03:07:27,729
did not disrespect

5478
03:07:27,729 --> 03:07:30,129
administration. I allow them

5479
03:07:31,200 --> 03:07:32,634
and use that word. Seriously.

5480
03:07:32,634 --> 03:07:35,804
I allow them to stay in it. It

5481
03:07:35,804 --> 03:07:37,306
won't happen again. From here

5482
03:07:37,306 --> 03:07:37,940
on out as a member of the

5483
03:07:37,940 --> 03:07:40,340
Finance committee and the

5484
03:07:41,543 --> 03:07:42,878
Finance chair. If I need them

5485
03:07:42,878 --> 03:07:44,513
in the meeting I'm gonna

5486
03:07:44,513 --> 03:07:45,181
requested if they demand to be

5487
03:07:45,181 --> 03:07:45,781
in. And I really hope that

5488
03:07:45,781 --> 03:07:47,249
MISTER Darnell Smith is

5489
03:07:47,249 --> 03:07:50,249
watching. And that he comes

5490
03:07:50,252 --> 03:07:50,953
back and change the tone. But

5491
03:07:50,953 --> 03:07:53,622
if that does not change, will

5492
03:07:53,622 --> 03:07:54,557
not take that meeting. And if

5493
03:07:54,557 --> 03:07:56,358
I do not take that meeting and

5494
03:07:56,358 --> 03:07:57,326
I do not feel comfortable

5495
03:07:57,326 --> 03:07:59,726
voting, I'm hoping that

5496
03:08:01,197 --> 03:08:03,990
members of whatever financial

5497
03:08:03,990 --> 03:08:04,200
rule will support their

5498
03:08:04,200 --> 03:08:05,634
colleague and saying and maybe

5499
03:08:05,634 --> 03:08:07,836
I'm the only one up here. I

5500
03:08:07,836 --> 03:08:11,436
hope I'm not. Because that was

5501
03:08:12,740 --> 03:08:12,607
in another message. But

5502
03:08:12,607 --> 03:08:14,276
hopefully that will

5503
03:08:14,276 --> 03:08:14,977
communicate that he is able

5504
03:08:14,977 --> 03:08:16,779
because I'm gonna close with

5505
03:08:16,779 --> 03:08:20,379
this. I said my little son

5506
03:08:21,160 --> 03:08:22,985
watching. Is asking my his

5507
03:08:22,985 --> 03:08:23,686
daddy. Why is this young man?

5508
03:08:23,686 --> 03:08:24,787
Why is this person who was so

5509
03:08:24,787 --> 03:08:27,787
credible in this room? Not

5510
03:08:28,491 --> 03:08:31,491
allowed to speak? That bothers

5511
03:08:33,396 --> 03:08:36,650
me. Because he is. He has

5512
03:08:36,650 --> 03:08:38,465
experience. You should be

5513
03:08:41,360 --> 03:08:41,770
trusted. Going to sit down,

5514
03:08:41,770 --> 03:08:42,471
I'm going to support this. But

5515
03:08:42,471 --> 03:08:44,173
I wanted to make sure that I

5516
03:08:44,173 --> 03:08:46,800
put that on the record. Moving

5517
03:08:46,800 --> 03:08:46,642
forward to the administration.

5518
03:08:46,642 --> 03:08:49,411
I would not take another

5519
03:08:49,411 --> 03:08:49,912

5520
03:08:49,912 --> 03:08:51,912

5521
03:08:53,916 --> 03:08:54,950

my colleague whose he jumped

5540
03:09:43,320 --> 03:09:43,699

03:09:44,400 --> 03:09:47,336

5546
03:09:51,674 --> 03:09:53,642
to do. I get calls about parks

5547
03:09:53,642 --> 03:09:54,510

5548
03:09:54,510 --> 03:09:58,110
we've got to work with the

03:09:58,480 --> 03:09:59,181

do not have time nor the

5557
03:10:08,858 --> 03:10:09,391

this fix because all of us

5568
03:10:23,639 --> 03:10:24,340

thank my good friend

5836
03:21:05,316 --> 03:21:05,951
COUNCILMAN Freeman. We were

5837
03:21:05,951 --> 03:21:06,952
just reminiscing that we

5838
03:21:06,952 --> 03:21:09,554
worked with wc back on the Old

5839
03:21:09,554 --> 03:21:10,488
Jax days and

5840
03:21:10,488 --> 03:21:11,190
>> I have just the biggest

5841
03:21:11,190 --> 03:21:13,325
heart for him. And he has the

5842
03:21:13,325 --> 03:21:13,925
biggest heart for

5843
03:21:13,925 --> 03:21:14,560
Jacksonville. One of my

5844
03:21:14,560 --> 03:21:15,260
favorite people ever met

5845
03:21:15,260 --> 03:21:17,262
public service. And so I move

5846
03:21:17,262 --> 03:21:17,896
a COUNCILMAN. I can't. All

5847
03:21:17,896 --> 03:21:20,310
right. We have a motion a

5848
03:21:20,310 --> 03:21:20,699
second on the Council

5849
03:21:20,699 --> 03:21:21,266
amendment. Got no speakers

5850
03:21:21,266 --> 03:21:23,266
actually MR. Freeman

5851
03:21:26,505 --> 03:21:27,206
COUNCILMAN.

5852
03:21:27,206 --> 03:21:27,906
>> One, thank you so much for

5853
03:21:27,906 --> 03:21:28,774
that COUNCILMAN Dominant. In

5854
03:21:28,774 --> 03:21:29,441
the end, he said this in a

5855
03:21:29,441 --> 03:21:30,410
public space. All to share

5856
03:21:30,410 --> 03:21:32,610
with you all. He's been

5857
03:21:32,610 --> 03:21:33,879
diagnosed Parkinson's disease.

5858
03:21:33,879 --> 03:21:34,479
And so he stepped away because

5859
03:21:34,479 --> 03:21:36,879
science is saying that

5860
03:21:37,549 --> 03:21:38,750
exercise can reduce those

5861
03:21:38,750 --> 03:21:39,751
symptoms from it. And so I

5862
03:21:39,751 --> 03:21:41,619
really want I believe in

5863
03:21:41,619 --> 03:21:42,320
giving people their they can

5864
03:21:42,320 --> 03:21:44,956
still And so this is another

5865
03:21:44,956 --> 03:21:45,357

03:23:36,168 --> 03:23:39,538
you to the chair. So as

5921
03:23:39,538 --> 03:23:42,538
minute, you know, payment. So

5922
03:23:43,876 --> 03:23:46,912
it as you know, we had a 7

5923
03:23:46,912 --> 03:23:47,213
year-old kid passed away last

5924
03:23:47,213 --> 03:23:47,880
week.

5925
03:23:47,880 --> 03:23:49,849
>> broke my heart. I got a

5926
03:23:49,849 --> 03:23:53,449
call from the pair. She was

5927
03:23:54,720 --> 03:23:55,454
devastated last week what I

5928
03:23:55,454 --> 03:23:58,857
want to in the next few weeks,

5929
03:23:58,857 --> 03:23:59,592
almost unnoticed meeting

5930
03:23:59,592 --> 03:24:01,600
trying come up with some

5931
03:24:01,600 --> 03:24:03,696
legislation. You know, I did

5932
03:24:03,696 --> 03:24:05,932
my research. I think in last 5

5933
03:24:05,932 --> 03:24:08,000
years we had these 10 kids the

5934
03:24:08,000 --> 03:24:09,735
pass away from dawn and

5935
03:24:09,735 --> 03:24:12,135
retention ponds. So as

5936
03:24:12,305 --> 03:24:13,240
legislators, you know, do we

5937
03:24:13,240 --> 03:24:15,908
stand by and and and don't do

5938
03:24:15,908 --> 03:24:16,609
anything. We do something. You

5939
03:24:16,609 --> 03:24:17,743
know, I'm not sure what would

5940
03:24:17,743 --> 03:24:18,777
come out of this notice.

5941
03:24:18,777 --> 03:24:20,813
Meeting. But what I do want to

5942
03:24:20,813 --> 03:24:23,115
invite is invite you guys to

5943
03:24:23,115 --> 03:24:23,883
builders. Hl a's the

5944
03:24:23,883 --> 03:24:24,550
community. This to try to

5945
03:24:24,550 --> 03:24:28,150
figure out how we you know,

5946
03:24:28,354 --> 03:24:29,550
come up with a solution. You

5947
03:24:29,550 --> 03:24:31,857
know, my biggest fear is that

5948
03:24:31,857 --> 03:24:33,993
I got another call like I got

5949
03:24:33,993 --> 03:24:34,727
last week. You know? It's

5950
03:24:34,727 --> 03:24:35,428
typically we take these things

5951
03:24:35,428 --> 03:24:38,798
for granted into it. I would

5952
03:24:38,798 --> 03:24:39,765
destroy home. So rush on to be

5953
03:24:39,765 --> 03:24:42,501
sending out e-mails some time.

5954
03:24:42,501 --> 03:24:44,637
So you know, and like I just

5955
03:24:44,637 --> 03:24:46,637
been noticed, meeting,

5956
03:24:48,875 --> 03:24:50,343
understand the cause. You

5957
03:24:50,343 --> 03:24:51,100
know, beyond Pittman Gate,

5958
03:24:51,100 --> 03:24:54,610
every you know, cause I get

5959
03:24:54,646 --> 03:24:55,781
it. I thought about it. But

5960
03:24:55,781 --> 03:24:58,830
trust me, I get it. But so in

5961
03:24:58,830 --> 03:24:59,850
a of on the low, 40 e mail it

5962
03:24:59,850 --> 03:24:59,985
next couple of weeks, I'm not

5963
03:24:59,985 --> 03:25:02,955
sure what come out of

5964
03:25:02,955 --> 03:25:03,656
resolution. I don't Maybe

5965
03:25:03,656 --> 03:25:05,656
encouragement, safety, but

5966
03:25:08,894 --> 03:25:09,628
just want to hear you guys out

5967
03:25:09,628 --> 03:25:10,496
decide to propose legislation.

5968
03:25:10,496 --> 03:25:12,698
So just be I don't look at

5969
03:25:12,698 --> 03:25:15,698
e-mail. Thank you. Thank you,

5970
03:25:18,438 --> 03:25:19,605
Over to MISS Pittman.

5971
03:25:19,605 --> 03:25:21,700
COUNCILMAN Gaffney, I would

5972
03:25:21,700 --> 03:25:22,842
just say I love to share a lot

5973
03:25:22,842 --> 03:25:25,842
of information that has been

5974
03:25:26,245 --> 03:25:26,879
done already

5975
03:25:26,879 --> 03:25:28,879
>> with legislation, but

5976
03:25:29,481 --> 03:25:32,184
mainly what we've done is had

5977
03:25:32,184 --> 03:25:34,584
a marketing campaign funds

5978
03:25:37,656 --> 03:25:38,557
that allocated from the Kerry

5979
03:25:38,557 --> 03:25:40,957
administration and also by

5980
03:25:42,695 --> 03:25:44,864
mere Deegan, we did have a

5981
03:25:44,864 --> 03:25:45,564
meeting with several of the

5982
03:25:45,564 --> 03:25:47,964
developers and engineers, but

5983
03:25:48,601 --> 03:25:51,103
I think it's time to pick that

5984
03:25:51,103 --> 03:25:52,105
up again. And I urge all of

5985
03:25:52,105 --> 03:25:55,705
you all if we can come

5986
03:25:56,943 --> 03:25:58,144
together and develop some

5987
03:25:58,144 --> 03:25:59,212
legislation because retention

5988
03:25:59,212 --> 03:25:59,845
ponds are everywhere and of

5989
03:25:59,845 --> 03:26:01,647
course, is kind of out of

5990
03:26:01,647 --> 03:26:03,482
sight out of mind. If you do

5991
03:26:03,482 --> 03:26:06,850
hear anything. But this is

5992
03:26:06,850 --> 03:26:08,850
really, really serious,

5993
03:26:11,591 --> 03:26:12,525
especially kids who yeah,

5994
03:26:12,525 --> 03:26:13,192
autism. So I'll be happy to

5995
03:26:13,192 --> 03:26:15,592
share that information and

5996
03:26:17,830 --> 03:26:18,531
i'll be glad to work with on

5997
03:26:18,531 --> 03:26:20,699
on some legislation as well.

5998
03:26:20,699 --> 03:26:22,699
Thank you.

5999
03:26:22,769 --> 03:26:23,769
>> Thank you. MISS Pittman and

6000
03:26:23,769 --> 03:26:26,769
with that, I'll recognize Dr

6001
03:26:31,744 --> 03:26:32,411

6002
03:26:32,411 --> 03:26:33,450
>> Okay. There we go. Thank

6003
03:26:33,450 --> 03:26:36,382
you so much. I will do it

6004
03:26:36,382 --> 03:26:37,830
since we have a special

6005
03:26:37,830 --> 03:26:39,619
day-to-day. First of all, we

6006
03:26:39,619 --> 03:26:40,653
want to recognize birthdays

6007
03:26:40,653 --> 03:26:41,421
today. And our birthdays.

6008
03:26:41,421 --> 03:26:42,388
Right now. I'm just doing it

6009
03:26:42,388 --> 03:26:44,958
as a favor because we know the

6010
03:26:44,958 --> 03:26:45,592
reigning birthday diva is

6011
03:26:45,592 --> 03:26:47,592
COUNCILWOMAN Pittman. So

6012
03:26:48,194 --> 03:26:48,895
birthdays. First of all,

6013
03:26:48,895 --> 03:26:52,320
AUGUST 11th would be Rory cca

6014
03:26:52,320 --> 03:26:54,432
Mackenzie. AUGUST 13th when

6015
03:26:56,570 --> 03:26:59,570

03:27:00,840 --> 03:27:01,541
AUGUST. 21st Big e Erik

6017
03:27:01,541 --> 03:27:02,208
Grantham, though they're all

6018
03:27:02,208 --> 03:27:04,208
celebrating birthdays. But

6019
03:27:05,611 --> 03:27:08,611
most importantly. This will be

6020
03:27:09,582 --> 03:27:10,216

friend. I got to say this for

6023
03:27:13,886 --> 03:27:17,390
not forever just for this term

6024
03:27:17,390 --> 03:27:18,910
as she is term limited. So you

6025
03:27:18,910 --> 03:27:18,825
will not celebrate another

6026
03:27:18,825 --> 03:27:19,859

03:27:21,928 --> 03:27:22,595
celebrate. I've known JaCoby

6029
03:27:22,595 --> 03:27:24,531

6030
03:27:24,531 --> 03:27:25,265

6031
03:27:25,265 --> 03:27:28,735
