[1:14] I think he's standing right there.

[1:27] So I don't know if he's going to be there, but he will be now, so he sits there, president.

[1:35] You

[1:46] need to hear by, we're here for a city council workshop to interview board applicants Wednesday, August 5,

[2:06] 2026,

[2:07] We'll just ask you a couple of questions at the end of that.

[2:12] We don't make the decision at this meeting, we make the decision after our regular meeting,

[2:17] but you do not have to stay for the whole regular meeting of all of that work, exactly.

[2:22] And so with that, let's get started, shall we come on up?

[2:31] So just start by just tell us a little bit about yourself.

[2:34] So, first of all, my name is Shelby Bwardboe, nice to meet you all.

[2:39] I have been a lifelong native to satellite each, and my father actually grew up here as well.

[2:46] So, if that's a long-standing roots in the area, I just had my own son, my very first son, about a year ago in April.

[2:54] And it's been so important for each model,

[2:59] giving back to our community and being active and involved,

[3:02] which is something that my own mother can work,

[3:05] though, has them for mindful life too.

[3:07] So when I saw the opening for the library board,

[3:10] I thought that would be a great start.

[3:12] Perfect.

[3:13] All right.

[3:14] Join me.

[3:15] Oh, I don't really have any questions for you.

[3:17] I just, as a young professional and a new mom,

[3:20] I think it's fantastic that you want to,

[3:22] you know, give up occasional time to the city and get more involved in that way.

[3:27] So thank you.

[3:29] All right.

[3:30] I like that.

[3:31] Just reading your qualifications and experience.

[3:33] You have this continuous flow of being involved.

[3:37] Student leadership.

[3:39] Ocean Rescue.

[3:42] And health and safety specialist means you are communicating with people.

[3:47] You're talking to people.

[3:48] You're doing things, which is a wonderful thing to see.

[3:51] And the library board is what you were looking for, I believe, that right.

[3:56] And it advises an assist library staff on program services and issues affecting satellite beach public library.

[4:04] That was good.

[4:05] It meets the first Tuesday of every other month.

[4:09] So that means you'll be in cadence, come September, and it meets over in the library.

[4:13] That's six p.m.

[4:14] Yep.

[4:15] Okay.

[4:16] So far we're sounding good.

[4:18] Excellent, anything you want to add?

[4:22] I don't know. I don't think so. I guess I do have a question if the board ever communicates

[4:30] outside of that bi-monthing meeting, if they do like a group chat or email chain or some other kind of discussion for

[4:36] or if the monthly bi-monthing meeting.

[4:38] Well, I have the bi-monthing meeting. Sometimes they'll, I mean, they're going to set out minutes ahead of the next

[4:45] coming meeting, sometimes they'll just ask, here's what we're usually at the meeting,

[4:51] they'll ask things like, we're thinking about some kind of projects coming up or we're

[4:54] going to have a book sale come up or we're going to have this and they'll just kind of get

[4:58] your take forward or if you come up with something. But most of that you will interact just

[5:05] with the secretary or through media or through Gwen and things out there. But they'll push

[5:12] information to you. I'm the liaison to that board, so we meet in the library. To me it's

[5:19] very interesting board. People are really into the library and books and stuff like that.

[5:24] We usually talk a lot about that type of stuff. Friends of the library are very active.

[5:30] They raise a lot of money with books, sales, they use books, sales, and they buy stuff.

[5:35] For the library, even that room that we'll be in, you'll see the tables and chairs and all that

[5:39] that was basically bot and donated by them. So they'll talk about the programs and stuff

[5:44] that's coming up. They may, when we have things like founders day or something like that,

[5:49] they may set up a booth. I think they did that. I think when you're from the Christmas,

[5:55] two miles or something like that, I think they said to start at the library, they had a booth

[5:59] kind of set up their pass out information and stuff. So it's pretty good for that. Steve,

[6:04] you got it? Do you happen to have any goals that you would like to see for the

[6:08] or achievements for the library that you would like to see specifically.

[6:15] This time, unfortunately, we do not have a good answer for that question.

[6:18] But I will say that I am very excited to bring my son to participate in a lot more of these events and things now.

[6:26] Okay.

[6:27] I think you would like that, and I think, yes, the kid sections always are.

[6:32] Very popular thing there.

[6:33] the summer programs are very popular that go on at the library.

[6:39] So that's really all the questions and stuff that we have.

[6:42] Again, like I said, we make the decision at the end of our regular meeting

[6:46] and then they'll notify you and let you know.

[6:50] Other than that, that's it.

[6:52] Well, thank you guys so much.

[6:53] This has been a pleasure and much less stressful.

[6:56] Thank you.

[6:58] Thank you guys very much.

[6:59] Thank you.

[7:03] We don't like, we don't like stress, so we can do without that.

[7:09] No, we have a partner.

[7:10] Yes.

[7:11] Hopefully, you saw how it was done.

[7:14] It's kind of easy.

[7:15] Just come right up there to the table there.

[7:19] And again, let's just start by just just tell us a little bit about yourself.

[7:24] Hello.

[7:25] My name is Oakley.

[7:27] I have been living here for around like...

[7:40] What was it like to be during the council?

[7:48] I'm sorry. Okay, I am back. Well, Mr. and Toma Lumber. I'm the board liaison for the council.

[7:56] And so it is a group. Right now all of them are satellite high students. You probably know some of them.

[8:03] Somebody came to the screen, came to the screen as well as on there.

[8:08] But I love your first benefit, to be fair.

[8:10] Sadly, age is pretty perfect, and I want to help keep it away.

[8:13] I love that sentence.

[8:18] Depending upon what the group comes up with,

[8:20] they can be creative.

[8:20] I know at the end of last year, the students who are returning,

[8:24] they wanted to do some kind of student,

[8:26] even the shooters are about something that they're working on.

[8:29] But also just to be kind of a use ambassador

[8:33] of the city, know what's going on.

[8:35] Usually we have someone from a department

[8:38] come and do kind of like be a guest speaker and each meeting to learn a little bit about

[8:42] to the government and to know enough about it to be able to share it with others, so there's

[8:47] just something for you to know.

[8:51] You are speaking about something you've got to change, tell me more about the secret of what

[9:19] That was a project from 3-2-1 millennials, which is like a legal group that did about a few years ago, but I see your side to it.

[9:29] But, you know, those are things that, as I use, team you guys can discuss and see if there's certain problems you want to try to solve in the city.

[9:38] So, I think that was a neat thing on that.

[9:40] I think it was back that we had and everybody hasn't really interesting and I think you

[9:46] ran really good perspective in making a conversation.

[9:51] What I did really like about what you had to say is you like the final path where everyone

[9:55] has to have to do with the resolve.

[9:57] You shouldn't try to make it a win win, which is really hard to do, but it's going to have

[10:02] that.

[10:03] Of course, I know in that, that's true and what we want to do.

[10:07] The other thing I'm going to like about what I saw here is just that our time

[10:10] around the city and observing things, what would be some of those things in the city you

[10:16] would like to talk about as a unit council that you're seeing in the city.

[10:22] I live in a little trouble,

[10:36] because sometimes you used to rush that up first thing on the

[10:39] mind you weren't thinking about what you were projected in board, so that's very good.

[10:43] I like what you have written in here, I like the idea that you need to build a lot of time

[10:47] in the city, you write around the city, and that you want to see some things improve the

[10:51] the same same time, so it's really good.

[10:54] Open thanks for coming in, thank you.

[10:56] I'm taking you on that, thank you.

[10:58] All right, so I'm going to only have two questions.

[11:01] What can I say in the row?

[11:03] I think we can be

[11:10] named in by Argyne Balister and Stroke.

[11:15] Oh, I wanted to introduce the gentleman,

[11:18] or was he, in an eight or a four,

[11:21] And I'll start with a, okay, cool.

[11:27] You'll have been the first captain of the crew team.

[11:30] So, you know, many, many minutes ago.

[11:32] I mean, just quite some points back.

[11:34] Yeah, I see.

[11:37] But either way, I key to it on your comment about the main concern

[11:41] in our community, being a driver's advisor,

[11:44] is not paying attention.

[11:45] There's a huge movement right now,

[11:47] against the e-bikes, for example.

[11:50] What kind of goal would you set for that?

[11:55] Because it's a perception from many of our citizens that it's really capable of doing a lot of being less paying attention than the drivers.

[12:09] I would say it would be more educational videos or why it's not, I would say it would be driving through and so on.

[12:23] And you can do that through in school. Is that correct?

[12:27] Well, there would be a little bit of information.

[12:30] Yeah, so, you know, these council, at that, became kind of a priority of theirs.

[12:35] I think there are a few years down with the crosswalks.

[12:42] Sounds good.

[12:43] That's all I have.

[12:45] I have just like a few couple things.

[12:49] Number one, when I ran from there, what makes I ran on is I just wanted to keep

[12:54] to save you the way I was.

[12:56] So I can't understand where you're coming from.

[12:58] That's exactly what I was.
