on this, the proposed 864 00:31:53,432 --> 00:31:55,535 marina replaces what was a 865 00:31:55,535 --> 00:31:56,169 longtime existing marina that 866 00:31:56,169 --> 00:31:59,169 was destroyed by hurricane wilma 867 00:31:59,572 --> 00:32:01,207 in 2005. 868 00:32:01,207 --> 00:32:03,607 This marina fulfills the 869 00:32:05,178 --> 00:32:08,178 complete vision of the wider 870 00:32:09,246 --> 00:32:09,358 recently reinvigorated marina 871 00:32:09,358 --> 00:32:09,434 del mar project. 872 00:32:09,434 --> 00:32:10,550 And, in fact, enhances the 873 00:32:10,550 --> 00:32:13,186 quality of the project and the 874 00:32:13,186 --> 00:32:13,920 quality of the residential 875 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:15,588 environment at the marina. 876 00:32:15,588 --> 00:32:17,424 The marina was in continuous 877 00:32:17,424 --> 00:32:18,580 operation for nearly 40 years 878 00:32:18,580 --> 00:32:21,460 before it was destroyed by the 879 00:32:21,460 --> 00:32:22,963 hurricane. 880 00:32:22,963 --> 00:32:25,565 Even after the hurricane, the 881 00:32:25,565 --> 00:32:27,334 applicant has paid taxes on the 882 00:32:27,334 --> 00:32:30,334 marina, since it was destroyed. 883 00:32:31,204 --> 00:32:32,672 The applicant has prioritized 884 00:32:32,672 --> 00:32:33,740 upland redevelopment and the 885 00:32:33,740 --> 00:32:35,675 fortified seawall and now seek 886 00:32:35,675 --> 00:32:36,276 to reinvest in the marina, as 887 00:32:36,276 --> 00:32:38,276 well. 888 00:32:39,946 --> 00:32:40,480 And finally, miami-dade county 889 00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:41,848 environmental resources 890 00:32:41,848 --> 00:32:43,182 management has performed a 891 00:32:43,182 --> 00:32:45,582 preliminary review of the 892 00:32:46,530 --> 00:32:46,619 proposed marina, and confirmed 893 00:32:46,619 --> 00:32:47,860 its consistency with key 894 00:32:47,860 --> 00:32:49,860 regulatory provisions. 895 00:32:49,455 --> 00:32:51,455 Next slide. 896 00:32:51,491 --> 00:32:53,527 So with that we ask for your 897 00:32:53,527 --> 00:32:54,628 approval for these minor 898 00:32:54,628 --> 00:32:56,262 modifications. 899 00:32:56,262 --> 00:33:00,367 Wth me this evening, as well, a 900 00:33:00,367 --> 00:33:02,767 representative of the ownership 901 00:33:03,270 --> 00:33:04,671 of the property, don dissinger, 902 00:33:04,671 --> 00:33:05,572 and richard

question would be 910 00:33:19,953 --> 00:33:20,187 regarding the railing on the 911 00:33:20,187 --> 00:33:21,188 seawall. 912 00:33:21,188 --> 00:33:22,322 Since it was your idea to have 913 00:33:22,322 --> 00:33:22,890 it originally, what was the 914 00:33:22,890 --> 00:33:25,290 reasoning behind having the 915 00:33:26,326 --> 00:33:27,394 railing? 916 00:33:27,394 --> 00:33:30,994 >> I might ask don to come 917 00:33:32,433 --> 00:33:34,134 forward. 918 00:33:34,134 --> 00:33:36,937 I think, I think, commissioner, 919 00:33:36,937 --> 00:33:40,537 that was before they were really 920 00:33:40,707 --> 00:33:41,175 focusing on the development of 921 00:33:41,175 --> 00:33:42,976 marina. 922 00:33:42,976 --> 00:33:45,279 And when they got to the point 923 00:33:45,279 --> 00:33:46,280 of deciding they were going to 924 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:48,280 redevelop the previously 925 00:33:48,315 --> 00:33:49,350 existing marina, then that 926 00:33:49,350 --> 00:33:49,717 wouldn't be an appropriate 927 00:33:49,717 --> 00:33:51,717 placement there. 928 00:33:55,210 --> 00:33:57,210 Don? 929 00:33:59,627 --> 00:34:01,461 >> we have some public speakers. 930 00:34:01,461 --> 00:34:01,762 So, we can do the public 931 00:34:01,762 --> 00:34:03,762 speakers -- 932 00:34:04,464 --> 00:34:06,233 >> you want to hold off on that? 933 00:34:06,233 --> 00:34:06,600 >> yeah, we can proceed with the 934 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:07,330 public speakers. 935 00:34:07,330 --> 00:34:07,668 >> sorry, gentlemen. 936 00:34:07,668 --> 00:34:10,680 >> Mayor: we'll ask questions. 937 00:34:11,405 --> 00:34:13,405 We'll ask questions. 938 00:34:13,808 --> 00:34:16,808 Okay, well first public speaker 939 00:34:17,177 --> 00:34:19,177 is don dissinger. 940 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:20,481 There you go. 941 00:34:20,481 --> 00:34:20,681 You didn't have a long ride 942 00:34:20,681 --> 00:34:20,881 there. 943 00:34:20,881 --> 00:34:22,881 Okay. 944 00:34:25,152 --> 00:34:25,953 >> so I was sworn in earlier. 945 00:34:25,953 --> 00:34:26,687 I did submit my -- 946 00:34:26,687 --> 00:34:29,687 >> Mayor: state your name and 947 00:34:30,824 --> 00:34:31,459 address for the record. 948 00:34:31,459 --> 00:34:33,194 >> I'm don dissinger residence 949 00:34:33,194 --> 00:34:35,594 is 100 kings point drive. 950 00:34:37,898 --> 00:34:39,767 In sunny isles beach. 951 00:34:39,767 --> 00:34:41,802 and I am the chief development 952 00:34:41,802 --> 00:34:44,202 officer for the brunetti 953 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:46,474 organization and have been 954 00:34:46,474 --> 00:34:49,474 involved with this project since 955 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:52,779 2016, in various iterations of 956 00:34:52,779 --> 00:34:54,779 development. 957 00:34:55,616 --> 00:34:58,616 So, to address your question, 958 00:34:58,619 --> 00:35:01,189 MR. Joseph, so, in the course of 959 00:35:01,189 --> 00:35:04,189 developing the project in the 960 00:35:05,159 --> 00:35:07,559 early submissions, the landscape 961 00:35:07,895 --> 00:35:08,495 architect proposed the railings 962 00:35:08,495 --> 00:35:10,431 as part of the overall design. 963 00:35:10,431 --> 00:35:11,933 By the time we developed both 964 00:35:11,933 --> 00:35:13,768 the towers, and all of the 965 00:35:13,768 --> 00:35:15,203 platforms for the tower, all of 966 00:35:15,203 --> 00:35:17,171 the safety issues that would be 967 00:35:17,171 --> 00:35:18,940 related to the higher level 968 00:35:18,940 --> 00:35:20,241 buildings were built into the 969 00:35:20,241 --> 00:35:21,442 building, so we have glass 970 00:35:21,442 --> 00:35:22,710 railings around all the 971 00:35:22,710 --> 00:35:25,212 buildings, and what we've seen 972 00:35:25,212 --> 00:35:29,412 in the other areas in town is 973 00:35:31,886 --> 00:35:33,955 that there's a lot of use along 974 00:35:33,955 --> 00:35:36,291 the fortified seawalls where 975 00:35:36,291 --> 00:35:38,126 people are enjoying firing and 976 00:35:38,126 --> 00:35:39,494 doing other things, so we saw 977 00:35:39,494 --> 00:35:41,950 that as an amenity to the 978 00:35:41,950 --> 00:35:42,163 community now that we have the 979 00:35:42,163 --> 00:35:43,310 easement for the bay walk around 980 00:35:43,310 --> 00:35:45,310 all our properties. 981 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:46,668 And we see a lot of dog walking, 982 00:35:46,668 --> 00:35:48,603 fishing, and things like that 983 00:35:48,603 --> 00:35:50,603 already going on. 984 00:35:50,672 --> 00:35:53,174 So our thought was, it's not 985 00:35:53,174 --> 00:35:54,442 being required to enhance the 986 00:35:54,442 --> 00:35:56,677 amenity of the new seawalls, 987 00:35:56,677 --> 00:35:57,612 which are elevated higher than 988 00:35:57,612 --> 00:35:59,580 the other seawalls, and quite 989 00:35:59,580 --> 00:36:01,181 safe in terms of flooding and 990 00:36:01,181 --> 00:36:01,983 everything else, it's just a 991 00:36:01,983 --> 00:36:04,419 better look and feel for the 992 00:36:04,419 --> 00:36:06,819 overall community, we thought. 993 00:36:07,922 --> 00:36:10,240 And that was our reason for not 994 00:36:10,240 --> 00:36:12,240 building that railing. 995 00:36:12,626 --> 00:36:14,262 >> so the original idea of the 996 00:36:14,262 --> 00:36:15,230 railing, it was for fancy rather 997 00:36:15,230 --> 00:36:17,230 than safety? 998 00:36:21,670 --> 00:36:23,772 >> no, I think ultimately, and I 999 00:36:23,772 --> 00:36:24,305 can't speak for our landscape 1000 00:36:24,305 --> 00:36:25,173 architect, but I think in 1001 00:36:25,173 --> 00:36:28,310 general he felt that it was 1002 00:36:28,310 --> 00:36:30,245 required. 1003 00:36:30,245 --> 00:36:31,312 And we learned long after that 1004 00:36:31,312 --> 00:36:33,312 that it wasn't. 1005 00:36:34,683 --> 00:36:36,685 And then when we saw the use of 1006 00:36:36,685 --> 00:36:38,453 the bay walk, we felt it would 1007 00:36:38,453 --> 00:36:40,489 be better to allow it for 1008 00:36:40,489 --> 00:36:44,689 people -- and I will be honest, 1009 00:36:44,793 --> 00:36:46,428 fishing is a big thing around 1010 00:36:46,428 --> 00:36:47,763 saul of those areas so we see a 1011 00:36:47,763 --> 00:36:48,931 lot of people coming to our 1012 00:36:48,931 --> 00:36:49,498 property to do those things. 1013 00:36:49,498 --> 00:36:53,980 So that's, I think, how it 1014 00:36:53,167 --> 00:36:55,167 evolved. 1015 00:36:55,170 --> 00:36:57,170 >> okay. 1016 00:36:57,973 --> 00:36:59,374 So, how do you plan on keeping 1017 00:36:59,374 --> 00:37:00,642 small children away from the 1018 00:37:00,642 --> 00:37:02,744 edge of the seawall? 1019 00:37:02,744 --> 00:37:05,744 >> well, we have about anywhere 1020 00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:09,118 from six to ten inches of rise 1021 00:37:09,118 --> 00:37:11,186 there, along the bay walk. 1022 00:37:11,186 --> 00:37:12,421 And it seems like all the other 1023 00:37:12,421 --> 00:37:14,757 bay walks, even right adjacent 1024 00:37:14,757 --> 00:37:16,240 to us, where we have the 1025 00:37:16,240 --> 00:37:18,160 children's park, there's a good 1026 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:20,662 10 feet of space, which is used 1027 00:37:20,662 --> 00:37:23,662 by families walking dogs and 1028 00:37:24,566 --> 00:37:26,966 things, between poinciana and 1029 00:37:27,569 --> 00:37:27,836 ours, that have very similar 1030 00:37:27,836 --> 00:37:29,836 situation. 1031 00:37:29,905 --> 00:37:32,541 So I think it's -- I think it's 1032 00:37:32,541 --> 00:37:33,742 a fairly safe environment. 1033 00:37:33,742 --> 00:37:35,144 >> so this railing wouldn't in 1034 00:37:35,144 --> 00:37:37,179 any way keep children away from 1035 00:37:37,179 --> 00:37:39,179 the seawall? 1036 00:37:40,115 --> 00:37:42,170 >> it might. 1037 00:37:42,170 --> 00:37:44,420 But I think the curb itself 1038 00:37:44,420 --> 00:37:47,420 keeps them on the walkway. 1039 00:37:48,724 --> 00:37:50,559 The bulkhead itself is too deep. 1040 00:37:50,559 --> 00:37:54,159 So, it just seems similar to 1041 00:37:54,296 --> 00:37:55,264 what we've seen elsewhere in the 1042 00:37:55,264 --> 00:37:56,765 city on sunny isles beach. 1043 00:37:56,765 --> 00:37:59,501 And we think it's kind of 1044 00:37:59,501 --> 00:38:01,300 compatible with the way people 1045 00:38:01,300 --> 00:38:01,370 use the edge, the water edge in 1046 00:38:01,370 --> 00:38:03,370 the community. 1047 00:38:07,743 --> 00:38:09,780 >> no, I understand that on many 1048 00:38:09,780 --> 00:38:10,546 seawalls there is no, you know, 1049 00:38:10,546 --> 00:38:12,781 any barrier for children. 1050 00:38:12,781 --> 00:38:15,851 But since you already have it 1051 00:38:15,851 --> 00:38:17,119 incorporated in your plan, I was 1052 00:38:17,119 --> 00:38:19,388 just thinking, you know, if it 1053 00:38:19,388 --> 00:38:21,190 is -- if there is any type of 1054 00:38:21,190 --> 00:38:22,592 safety involved with it, why 1055 00:38:22,592 --> 00:38:24,360 remove it? 1056 00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:25,595 >> we discussed that with our 1057 00:38:25,595 --> 00:38:25,895 in-house insurance and 1058 00:38:25,895 --> 00:38:27,330 everything. 1059 00:38:27,330 --> 00:38:29,332 We think it's reasonably safe as 1060 00:38:29,332 --> 00:38:31,332 it's currently designed. 1061 00:38:31,733 --> 00:38:31,901 Which is why we asked to remove 1062 00:38:31,901 --> 00:38:32,134 it. 1063 00:38:32,134 --> 00:38:33,135 >> okay. 1064 00:38:33,135 --> 00:38:33,402 I appreciate it. 1065 00:38:33,402 --> 00:38:35,402 Thank you. 1066 00:38:38,141 --> 00:38:40,141 >> thank you. 1067 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:44,514 Any other questions for me? 1068 00:38:44,514 --> 00:38:45,470 >> Mayor: you want to -- we'll 1069 00:38:45,470 --> 00:38:45,314 continue with the public 1070 00:38:45,314 --> 00:38:47,314 speakers. 1071 00:38:53,189 --> 00:38:54,857 Thank you. 1072 00:38:54,857 --> 00:38:55,424 -- rafael. 1073 00:38:55,424 --> 00:38:58,424 Please state your name and 1074 00:39:01,663 --> 00:39:02,331 address for the

--> 00:39:16,745 I'm actually right across the 1079 00:39:16,745 --> 00:39:18,745 plan marina. 1080 00:39:18,947 --> 00:39:21,117 So maybe one of the questions I 1081 00:39:21,117 --> 00:39:21,885 have is obviously very 1082 00:39:21,885 --> 00:39:23,453 concerning to have that 1083 00:39:23,453 --> 00:39:24,870 construction, so wondering how 1084 00:39:24,870 --> 00:39:27,687 long that project will last, if 1085 00:39:28,158 --> 00:39:29,526 it is to be approved. 1086 00:39:29,526 --> 00:39:29,926 If I could get someone to 1087 00:39:29,926 --> 00:39:31,226 comment? 1088 00:39:31,226 --> 00:39:33,196 >> Mayor: go ahead. 1089 00:39:33,196 --> 00:39:36,196 We've had our seawall under 1090 00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:37,534 construction for quite some 1091 00:39:37,534 --> 00:39:38,101 time. 1092 00:39:38,101 --> 00:39:38,735 >> right. 1093 00:39:38,735 --> 00:39:41,171 >> Mayor: perhaps I don't know 1094 00:39:41,171 --> 00:39:45,371 if you'd like to address that or 1095 00:39:49,212 --> 00:39:49,379 answer that question? 1096 00:39:49,379 --> 00:39:49,779 >>. 1097 00:39:49,779 --> 00:39:50,280 [Speaker off mic] 1098 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:52,280 >> Mayor: six months. 1099 00:39:52,781 --> 00:39:54,840 >> so as you know from my 1100 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:55,752 experience living in the same 1101 00:39:55,752 --> 00:39:57,654 place, it took six months just 1102 00:39:57,654 --> 00:39:58,888 to get the permit, after permit, 1103 00:39:58,888 --> 00:40:02,488 after permit to get it done. 1104 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:03,680 It took basically more than a 1105 00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:03,860 year. 1106 00:40:03,860 --> 00:40:04,161 And I only moved in this year to 1107 00:40:04,161 --> 00:40:06,960 sunny isles. 1108 00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:06,329 So that was one, my first 1109 00:40:06,329 --> 00:40:08,329 concern. 1110 00:40:08,965 --> 00:40:12,369 The second one we only are now 1111 00:40:12,369 --> 00:40:13,804 in our island 43 boats. 1112 00:40:13,804 --> 00:40:16,206 And the concern is safety. 1113 00:40:16,206 --> 00:40:18,975 So how is adding 18 boats will 1114 00:40:18,975 --> 00:40:20,410 increase the safety of manatees, 1115 00:40:20,410 --> 00:40:22,312 that's clearly not clear to me. 1116 00:40:22,312 --> 00:40:25,912 >> Mayor: yeah, I mean for me, 1117 00:40:26,783 --> 00:40:27,617 you know, I know this was 1118 00:40:27,617 --> 00:40:28,840 articulated, but the 18 slips 1119 00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:29,185 were already there. 1120 00:40:29,185 --> 00:40:32,785 I mean, this was already a 1121 00:40:33,190 --> 00:40:34,925 permitted item. 1122 00:40:34,925 --> 00:40:35,859 Right? 1123 00:40:35,859 --> 00:40:37,594 So it's not like they just -- 1124 00:40:37,594 --> 00:40:39,994 they're creating 18 new slips. 1125 00:40:41,532 --> 00:40:43,667 Yes, there was a force majeure 1126 00:40:43,667 --> 00:40:45,350 event that created that -- that 1127 00:40:45,350 --> 00:40:45,668 demolished that or eviscerated 1128 00:40:45,668 --> 00:40:47,668 the permit. 1129 00:40:51,208 --> 00:40:52,750 But there were pre-existing 18 1130 00:40:52,750 --> 00:40:53,644 permitted slips before or when 1131 00:40:53,644 --> 00:40:55,644 we had ours. 1132 00:40:56,180 --> 00:40:56,980 So, you know, I'm not sure I see 1133 00:40:56,980 --> 00:40:59,380 that as a -- 1134 00:40:59,783 --> 00:41:01,752 >> I mean I'm just concerned, if 1135 00:41:01,752 --> 00:41:03,153 I'm being not allowed to put a 1136 00:41:03,153 --> 00:41:05,188 boat on my pier, which I have a 1137 00:41:05,188 --> 00:41:07,570 permit to have one, and I have 1138 00:41:07,570 --> 00:41:08,559 one built, and at the same time 1139 00:41:08,559 --> 00:41:10,959 we're hearing about 18 more 1140 00:41:10,961 --> 00:41:12,960 boats, much larger than what I'm 1141 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:13,330 planning to get, and that 1142 00:41:13,330 --> 00:41:14,865 suddenly is allowed. 1143 00:41:14,865 --> 00:41:16,000 >> Mayor: is that boat -- I 1144 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:16,600 guess the -- I guess the 1145 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:20,200 question then is, I mean, is 1146 00:41:24,675 --> 00:41:26,430 there any -- I mean is there 1147 00:41:26,430 --> 00:41:28,450 any -- what would the poinciana 1148 00:41:28,450 --> 00:41:29,145 marine slip permitting is that 1149 00:41:29,145 --> 00:41:29,747 related at all to the marina del 1150 00:41:29,747 --> 00:41:31,147 mar permitting? 1151 00:41:31,147 --> 00:41:33,284 isn't that part of your own -- 1152 00:41:33,284 --> 00:41:33,484 isn't that part of your own site 1153 00:41:33,484 --> 00:41:35,419 plan? 1154 00:41:35,419 --> 00:41:35,719 >> I can't speak as to their 1155 00:41:35,719 --> 00:41:37,719 permitting. 1156 00:41:38,788 --> 00:41:39,857 But mayor, as you pointed out, 1157 00:41:39,857 --> 00:41:41,192 "a," there was historically this 1158 00:41:41,192 --> 00:41:44,192 marina there for many, many 1159 00:41:46,664 --> 00:41:48,365 years, for decades. 1160 00:41:48,365 --> 00:41:49,650 "b," remember, derm has already 1161 00:41:49,650 --> 00:41:50,367 preliminarily approved that. 1162 00:41:50,367 --> 00:41:52,680 And derm is one of the first 1163 00:41:52,680 --> 00:41:55,473 things they assessed is if there 1164 00:41:55,473 --> 00:41:56,173 would be any impact on manatee 1165 00:41:56,173 --> 00:41:58,173 and seagrasses. 1166 00:41:58,308 --> 00:41:58,976 So derm has approved it. 1167 00:41:58,976 --> 00:42:01,376 It's historically been there. 1168 00:42:01,379 --> 00:42:03,800 It's not changing in any way the 1169 00:42:03,800 --> 00:42:03,381 intensity of what has been 1170 00:42:03,381 --> 00:42:04,915 there. 1171 00:42:04,915 --> 00:42:07,184 >> Mayor: for me that was the 1172 00:42:07,184 --> 00:42:07,952 first question that I had. 1173 00:42:07,952 --> 00:42:10,821 Like, you know, well where do 1174 00:42:10,821 --> 00:42:11,788 these marina slips come? 1175 00:42:11,788 --> 00:42:12,723 That's why I asked the owner's 1176 00:42:12,723 --> 00:42:13,658 rep about that. 1177 00:42:13,658 --> 00:42:14,959 Then from at least what the 1178 00:42:14,959 --> 00:42:15,593 information that I got was that 1179 00:42:15,593 --> 00:42:18,896 these 18 slips were around for a 1180 00:42:18,896 --> 00:42:20,896 long time. 1181 00:42:20,932 --> 00:42:21,899 >> is there any way to get this 1182 00:42:21,899 --> 00:42:23,899 information publicly available 1183 00:42:26,337 --> 00:42:28,973 for us so we can actually 1184 00:42:28,973 --> 00:42:30,441 somehow study showing us in 1185 00:42:30,441 --> 00:42:32,900 addition to the 43 we have, 1186 00:42:32,900 --> 00:42:33,845 which is very limited us as a 1187 00:42:33,845 --> 00:42:35,279 residence of poinciana island, 1188 00:42:35,279 --> 00:42:36,481 and at the same time there's 18 1189 00:42:36,481 --> 00:42:39,283 more and that's obviously would 1190 00:42:39,283 --> 00:42:41,686 be safe, so just in this isle 1191 00:42:41,686 --> 00:42:42,854 which is really where I live, 1192 00:42:42,854 --> 00:42:44,622 suddenly adding 18 more boats, 1193 00:42:44,622 --> 00:42:48,126 much bigger than what we have in 1194 00:42:48,126 --> 00:42:49,494 any one of the residence there, 1195 00:42:49,494 --> 00:42:51,729 suddenly this make the safety of 1196 00:42:51,729 --> 00:42:53,597 manatees fine, compared to add 1197 00:42:53,597 --> 00:42:54,232 one or two boats more in our 1198 00:42:54,232 --> 00:42:56,301 island that is completely at the 1199 00:42:56,301 --> 00:42:58,301 moment restricted. 1200 00:42:58,503 --> 00:43:00,672 So to me, there's a proportion 1201 00:43:00,672 --> 00:43:02,474 that would make no sense to me 1202 00:43:02,474 --> 00:43:05,474 that 18 larger boats would keep 1203 00:43:07,111 --> 00:43:08,813 the manatees safe, which is 1204 00:43:08,813 --> 00:43:11,813 definitely an intent, to keep 1205 00:43:12,882 --> 00:43:12,991 them safe. 1206 00:43:12,991 --> 00:43:13,670 Not very clear to me how that's 1207 00:43:13,670 --> 00:43:13,985 being allowed, and what is 1208 00:43:13,985 --> 00:43:15,820 available for us as the public 1209 00:43:15,820 --> 00:43:19,420 to see and basically comment, or 1210 00:43:19,691 --> 00:43:19,991 at least understand better the 1211 00:43:19,991 --> 00:43:20,859 information. 1212 00:43:20,859 --> 00:43:21,859 The fact, you know, the numbers 1213 00:43:21,859 --> 00:43:22,694 which I have not seen anything 1214 00:43:22,694 --> 00:43:24,195 like that published. 1215 00:43:24,195 --> 00:43:24,562 >> Mayor: again, you can 1216 00:43:24,562 --> 00:43:25,997 respond. 1217 00:43:25,997 --> 00:43:28,432 But again, I think they're 1218 00:43:28,432 --> 00:43:29,167 separate -- I think it's a 1219 00:43:29,167 --> 00:43:29,634 separate consideration. 1220 00:43:29,634 --> 00:43:29,834 Or no? 1221 00:43:29,834 --> 00:43:31,834 I -- 1222 00:43:33,638 --> 00:43:34,206 >> mayor, also, just for the 1223 00:43:34,206 --> 00:43:37,206 record, the derm report and 1224 00:43:37,876 --> 00:43:39,210 analysis is a public record. 1225 00:43:39,210 --> 00:43:41,179 And their finding is that it is 1226 00:43:41,179 --> 00:43:42,947 consistent with the manatee 1227 00:43:42,947 --> 00:43:44,583 protection plan. 1228 00:43:44,583 --> 00:43:46,584 Those of you, I think mayor 1229 00:43:46,584 --> 00:43:48,720 you're well familiar with it, 1230 00:43:48,720 --> 00:43:49,921 derm is not an easy agency. 1231 00:43:49,921 --> 00:43:51,220 If there were any problem they 1232 00:43:51,220 --> 00:43:51,823 would let us know. 1233 00:43:51,823 --> 00:43:53,358 It's all public record. 1234 00:43:53,358 --> 00:43:54,226 It's all available to you. 1235 00:43:54,226 --> 00:43:54,659 It's all consistent with the 1236 00:43:54,659 --> 00:43:56,659 manatee protection. 1237 00:43:59,970 --> 00:44:01,933 >> and it's online, as well. 1238 00:44:01,933 --> 00:44:03,868 >> Mayor: so is there any way -- 1239 00:44:03,868 --> 00:44:05,669 can you indicate where that can 1240 00:44:05,669 --> 00:44:06,571 be obtained, if this gentleman 1241 00:44:06,571 --> 00:44:08,240 is interested in that? 1242 00:44:08,240 --> 00:44:08,974 >> sure. 1243 00:44:08,974 --> 00:44:09,574 If he gives me his contact 1244 00:44:09,574 --> 00:44:12,574 information I'll send him the 1245 00:44:13,812 --> 00:44:15,812 contact. 1246 00:44:16,248 --> 00:44:16,747 >> Mayor: and absolutely 1247 00:44:16,747 --> 00:44:19,147 cognizant of your items 1248 00:44:21,186 --> 00:44:23,186 presented. 1249 00:44:24,690 --> 00:44:27,920 >> -- six months is there any 1250 00:44:27,920 --> 00:44:28,260 way, six months rather than -- 1251 00:44:28,260 --> 00:44:30,362 because obviously I'm going to 1252 00:44:30,362 --> 00:44:32,731 live for the next many months to 1253 00:44:32,731 --> 00:44:35,767 come, so is there any way to 1254 00:44:35,767 --> 00:44:38,300 create some sort of contract, or 1255 00:44:38,300 --> 00:44:39,237 the contract that would have a 1256 00:44:39,237 --> 00:44:40,806 very significant penalty in 1257 00:44:40,806 --> 00:44:42,806 case -- 1258 00:44:43,342 --> 00:44:43,542 >> Mayor: I can't speak for the 1259 00:44:43,542 --> 00:44:45,542 owner. 1260 00:44:47,646 --> 00:44:49,448 But I will say that their 1261 00:44:49,448 --> 00:44:51,150 construction has been overall, 1262 00:44:51,150 --> 00:44:54,150 and their deliverables on a 1263 00:44:55,987 --> 00:44:56,255 timely manner, has been 1264 00:44:56,255 --> 00:44:57,889 exemplary. 1265 00:44:57,889 --> 00:44:59,958 I have to say their experience 1266 00:44:59,958 --> 00:45:01,192 has been -- I think they've -- I 1267 00:45:01,192 --> 00:45:02,961 think they've really performed 1268 00:45:02,961 --> 00:45:04,596 on their time lines. 1269 00:45:04,596 --> 00:45:07,299 >> I trust what you're saying. 1270 00:45:07,299 --> 00:45:08,666 But is there any way to include 1271 00:45:08,666 --> 00:45:10,468 some sort of a, you know, time 1272

that they're 1334 00:47:02,215 --> 00:47:03,616 claiming that in OCTOBER 26, 1335 00:47:03,616 --> 00:47:05,452 2005, when wind hit all of us, 1336 00:47:05,452 --> 00:47:08,187 and I lost my boat,

marina you want 1359 00:47:57,771 --> 00:47:58,405 to build it? 1360 00:47:58,405 --> 00:48:02,605 Now you want to build a marina 1361 00:48:05,178 --> 00:48:08,778 on the narrowest part of the 1362

00:48:34,172 than 40 feet. 1369 00:48:35,108 --> 00:48:36,677 So, first of all, I don't think 1370 00:48:36,677 --> 00:48:39,446 you are in a situation now to 1371 00:48:39,446 --> 00:48:41,140 say

allow one boat for 100 1482 00:52:23,338 --> 00:52:25,338 feet. 1483 00:52:25,708 --> 00:52:26,442 So I would assume they have 1800 1484 00:52:26,442 --> 00:52:27,420 feet, if they have more, they 1485 00:52:27,420 --> 00:52:30,420 probably would be asking for 1486 00:52:32,581 --> 00:52:34,316 more slips. 1487 00:52:34,316 --> 00:52:35,840 That being said, owners are 1488 00:52:35,840 --> 00:52:37,186 concerned with the construction, 1489 00:52:37,186 --> 00:52:37,586 how long this is going to take, 1490 00:52:37,586 --> 00:52:39,586 and so on. 1491 00:52:40,556 --> 00:52:41,523 So they have questions. 1492 00:52:41,523 --> 00:52:43,125 So while I'm personally not 1493 00:52:43,125 --> 00:52:45,194 against what they're doing, I 1494 00:52:45,194 --> 00:52:47,329 would ask that the commission 1495 00:52:47,329 --> 00:52:48,597 delay the decision so unit 1496 00:52:48,597 --> 00:52:50,199 owners of poinciana could gather 1497 00:52:50,199 --> 00:52:50,833 more information, and be 1498 00:52:50,833 --> 00:52:53,233 comfortable about this process 1499 00:52:53,402 --> 00:52:55,304 and what's going to happen. 1500 00:52:55,304 --> 00:52:56,539 Now you say they had a marina 1501 00:52:56,539 --> 00:53:00,139 before, and I would say, why 1502 00:53:00,476 --> 00:53:00,643 shouldn't they have a marina 1503 00:53:00,643 --> 00:53:01,510 now? 1504 00:53:01,510 --> 00:53:03,646 Eric's comment about boats being 1505 00:53:03,646 --> 00:53:04,213 a certain length is valid. 1506 00:53:04,213 --> 00:53:07,213 But that's really not your 1507 00:53:08,350 --> 00:53:10,350 decision. 1508 00:53:10,419 --> 00:53:12,421 If derm felt it was unsafe, and 1509 00:53:12,421 --> 00:53:12,855 they didn't mention army corps 1510 00:53:12,855 --> 00:53:14,855 of engineers. 1511 00:53:14,857 --> 00:53:15,591 And so was the army corps of 1512 00:53:15,591 --> 00:53:17,260 engineers involved with this? 1513 00:53:17,260 --> 00:53:18,994 So they had a marina before. 1514 00:53:18,994 --> 00:53:20,296 I don't know that they need to 1515 00:53:20,296 --> 00:53:21,330 be involved again. 1516 00:53:21,330 --> 00:53:23,699 But there's questions that need 1517 00:53:23,699 --> 00:53:26,335 to be asked and answered. 1518 00:53:26,335 --> 00:53:27,970 And, I don't know that it's so 1519 00:53:27,970 --> 00:53:30,640 important to make a decision 1520 00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:32,700 tonight versus in JANUARY, where 1521 00:53:32,700 --> 00:53:33,208 they could come back, could ask 1522 00:53:33,208 --> 00:53:35,278 questions that they want to 1523 00:53:35,278 --> 00:53:36,379 bring up, and provide them. 1524 00:53:36,379 --> 00:53:37,613 I know people had an opportunity 1525 00:53:37,613 --> 00:53:38,281 to be here tonight and could 1526 00:53:38,281 --> 00:53:40,148 have asked those questions. 1527 00:53:40,148 --> 00:53:40,549 I don't know if anyone else is 1528 00:53:40,549 --> 00:53:42,549 here. 1529 00:53:45,521 --> 00:53:45,888 But, it does give a little extra 1530 00:53:45,888 --> 00:53:47,223 time. 1531 00:53:47,223 --> 00:53:48,291 And I'm not against this. 1532 00:53:48,291 --> 00:53:51,891 But I think some other questions 1533 00:53:52,194 --> 00:53:54,931 need to be answered, and an 1534 00:53:54,931 --> 00:53:56,566 extra month really wouldn't be a 1535 00:53:56,566 --> 00:53:57,660 big deal to allow that to 1536 00:53:57,660 --> 00:53:57,567 happen. 1537 00:53:57,567 --> 00:53:59,567 >> Mayor: okay. 1538 00:54:00,103 --> 00:54:00,369 We have no other public 1539 00:54:00,369 --> 00:54:02,369 speakers. 1540 00:54:05,575 --> 00:54:06,708 So again, I'd like to just ask 1541 00:54:06,708 --> 00:54:08,545 the question, again, these 1542 00:54:08,545 --> 00:54:08,778 marina slips were pre-existing, 1543 00:54:08,778 --> 00:54:09,479 correct? 1544 00:54:09,479 --> 00:54:12,479 You had a pre-existing -- 1545 00:54:12,982 --> 00:54:14,550 >> correct. 1546 00:54:14,550 --> 00:54:14,951 >> Mayor:-plan where you had 18 1547 00:54:14,951 --> 00:54:15,618 marina slips. 1548 00:54:15,618 --> 00:54:16,752 Is that correct? 1549 00:54:16,752 --> 00:54:18,153 >> that is correct. 1550 00:54:18,153 --> 00:54:20,523 >> Mayor: and that you have full 1551 00:54:20,523 --> 00:54:22,758 clearance with manatees, and 1552 00:54:22,758 --> 00:54:24,360 with wake, and with passage of 1553 00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:26,760 boats through that canal. 1554 00:54:26,963 --> 00:54:28,297 So any placement of these marina 1555 00:54:28,297 --> 00:54:30,400 slips, the quantity, the 1556 00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:32,800 ingress, the egress, the 1557 00:54:33,360 --> 00:54:35,710 manatee, the environmental, all 1558 00:54:35,710 --> 00:54:35,305 of that has been completely 1559 00:54:35,305 --> 00:54:35,538 vetted. 1560 00:54:35,538 --> 00:54:37,538 Correct? 1561 00:54:37,574 --> 00:54:38,375 >> all been reviewed by derm and 1562 00:54:38,375 --> 00:54:39,508 preliminarily approved. 1563 00:54:39,508 --> 00:54:41,508 >> Mayor: okay. 1564 00:54:43,112 --> 00:54:44,514 So derm, and the same way derm 1565 00:54:44,514 --> 00:54:45,381 approved that that they approved 1566 00:54:45,381

00:54:55,558 --> 00:54:57,558 ingress, the egress. 1574 00:54:58,528 --> 00:55:00,296 >> where they're located, no 1575 00:55:00,296 --> 00:55:00,931 variances, all by right within 1576 00:55:00,931 --> 00:55:03,931 derm's rules, within the city's 1577 00:55:05,340 --> 00:55:06,236 rules. 1578 00:55:06,236 --> 00:55:07,170 >> Mayor: and we've had plenty 1579 00:55:07,170 --> 00:55:09,206 of opportunity to discuss this 1580 00:55:09,206 --> 00:55:12,342 this evening, and there's no -- 1581 00:55:12,342 --> 00:55:13,543 there are no other lingering 1582 00:55:13,543 --> 00:55:15,912 questions or any reason to -- 1583 00:55:15,912 --> 00:55:17,180 >> oh, I have a few comments. 1584 00:55:17,180 --> 00:55:17,914 >> Mayor: other than whatever my 1585 00:55:17,914 --> 00:55:19,914 colleagues have here. 1586 00:55:22,952 --> 00:55:26,856 But I just, for me, that was the 1587 00:55:26,856 --> 00:55:28,391 sine qua non that there were 18 1588 00:55:28,391 --> 00:55:29,660 slips in existence and that's 1589 00:55:29,660 --> 00:55:30,627 why I felt all along. 1590 00:55:30,627 --> 00:55:31,128 It's not like you're creating 1591 00:55:31,128 --> 00:55:32,362 something from nothing. 1592 00:55:32,362 --> 00:55:33,797 >> correct, mayor. 1593 00:55:33,797 --> 00:55:34,640 And it is permitted as a matter 1594 00:55:34,640 --> 00:55:36,640 of right. 1595 00:55:38,680 --> 00:55:38,769 And it meets all the criteria 1596 00:55:38,769 --> 00:55:40,637 for site plan. 1597 00:55:40,637 --> 00:55:40,904 >> Mayor: and I think it will be 1598 00:55:40,904 --> 00:55:41,405 beautiful. 1599 00:55:41,405 --> 00:55:41,672 Just like the building. 1600 00:55:41,672 --> 00:55:43,672 So anyway. 1601 00:55:48,712 --> 00:55:49,212 go ahead. 1602 00:55:49,212 --> 00:55:50,513 Commissioner stuyvesant. 1603 00:55:50,513 --> 00:55:50,747 >> number one, about cable 1604 00:55:50,747 --> 00:55:51,582 railing. 1605 00:55:51,582 --> 00:55:52,782 That sidewalk is a public 1606 00:55:52,782 --> 00:55:54,484 sidewalk, right? 1607 00:55:54,484 --> 00:55:56,484 >> correct. 1608 00:55:57,154 --> 00:55:59,223 >> so, by us accepting to 1609 00:55:59,223 --> 00:56:00,524 eliminate that cable railing, if 1610 00:56:00,524 --> 00:56:02,793 anything happens there are we 1611 00:56:02,793 --> 00:56:03,327 liable for it, the city liable 1612 00:56:03,327 --> 00:56:04,661 in any way? 1613 00:56:04,661 --> 00:56:06,797 Because I don't know the answer. 1614 00:56:06,797 --> 00:56:08,980 >> no, I don't believe we are. 1615 00:56:08,980 --> 00:56:09,199 Because those cables aren't 1616 00:56:09,199 --> 00:56:12,769 required by the terms of our 1617 00:56:12,769 --> 00:56:14,769 land development regulations. 1618 00:56:15,939 --> 00:56:16,240 >> it was like an extra layer of 1619 00:56:16,240 --> 00:56:18,240 protection. 1620 00:56:18,575 --> 00:56:20,100 But again I just wanted to 1621 00:56:20,100 --> 00:56:20,277 codify that that's a public 1622 00:56:20,277 --> 00:56:22,277 sidewalk. 1623 00:56:24,148 --> 00:56:25,882 >> yes, and commissioner as 1624 00:56:25,882 --> 00:56:26,850 MR. Dissinger said it is 1625 00:56:26,850 --> 00:56:27,518 consistent with the other public 1626 00:56:27,518 --> 00:56:29,518 bay walk. 1627 00:56:30,321 --> 00:56:33,921 >> in st. Tropez, I just wanted 1628 00:56:34,291 --> 00:56:35,759 to make sure that we aren't 1629 00:56:35,759 --> 00:56:38,495 liable by saying, you know. 1630 00:56:38,495 --> 00:56:41,198 Number two the modification the 1631 00:56:41,198 --> 00:56:41,932 entryway signage I have no issue 1632 00:56:41,932 --> 00:56:43,334 with. 1633 00:56:43,334 --> 00:56:44,902 Number three with the condition, 1634 00:56:44,902 --> 00:56:47,302 I have some issues. 1635 00:56:48,272 --> 00:56:49,740 Because you have 35 units right 1636 00:56:49,740 --> 00:56:49,940 now for workforce housing. 1637 00:56:49,940 --> 00:56:50,841 Right? 1638 00:56:50,841 --> 00:56:52,420 >> correct. 1639 00:56:52,420 --> 00:56:53,177 >> what is the price, kind of, 1640 00:56:53,177 --> 00:56:53,844 of those, do you know? 1641 00:56:53,844 --> 00:56:56,844 >> well, the way the workforce 1642 00:56:59,684 --> 00:57:02,684 housing unit pricing goes is 1643 00:57:05,220 --> 00:57:07,358 it's set based upon the median 1644 00:57:07,358 --> 00:57:09,160 income for a family or an 1645 00:57:09,160 --> 00:57:11,560 individual in dade county. 1646 00:57:12,930 --> 00:57:15,299 And it can't be -- that is, it 1647 00:57:15,299 --> 00:57:18,899 cannot be higher than what would 1648 00:57:18,936 --> 00:57:21,936 be housing for someone at 120% 1649 00:57:23,574 --> 00:57:25,576 of ami, adjusted median income. 1650 00:57:25,576 --> 00:57:26,100 Which it would be 30% of that 1651 00:57:26,100 --> 00:57:28,100 income. 1652 00:57:28,746 --> 00:57:31,480 So for instance, if somebody -- 1653 00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:32,416 and it's scaled also based on 1654 00:57:32,416 --> 00:57:33,383 whether it's one person, two 1655 00:57:33,383 --> 00:57:33,617 people, three people, four 1656 00:57:33,617 --> 00:57:34,419 people. 1657 00:57:34,419 --> 00:57:36,419 >> right. 1658 00:57:38,155 --> 00:57:42,355 >> so if it's a family of four, 1659 00:57:42,727 --> 00:57:44,529 and the person earns 120% of 1660 00:57:44,529 --> 00:57:47,398 ami, which would be I think 1661 00:57:47,398 --> 00:57:48,732 about $90,000, then I think that 1662 00:57:48,732 --> 00:57:50,340 the total rent there couldn't be 1663 00:57:50,340 --> 00:57:52,340 more than $27,000. 1664 00:57:53,905 --> 00:57:54,305 And that's the very, very high 1665 00:57:54,305 --> 00:57:56,305 end. 1666 00:57:56,441 --> 00:57:57,808 It was a -- two people, it would 1667 00:57:57,808 --> 00:57:58,743 be less. 1668 00:57:58,743 --> 00:58:01,743 If their income was $70,000, it 1669 00:58:03,213 --> 00:58:04,148 would be 30% of that. 1670 00:58:04,148 --> 00:58:05,216 So that's the cap. 1671 00:58:05,216 --> 00:58:06,170 They don't actually control the 1672 00:58:06,170 --> 00:58:06,618 rent. 1673 00:58:06,618 --> 00:58:09,253 The rent is controlled by the 1674 00:58:09,253 --> 00:58:09,921 income of the tenant. 1675 00:58:09,921 --> 00:58:11,921 >> great. 1676 00:58:12,155 --> 00:58:13,358 But I know those 35 units are 1677 00:58:13,358 --> 00:58:15,758 all over the building. 1678 00:58:15,960 --> 00:58:17,960 >> correct. 1679 00:58:18,930 --> 00:58:20,965 >> how you have like per floor, 1680 00:58:20,965 --> 00:58:22,467 or and what if you are expecting 1681 00:58:22,467 --> 00:58:25,103 to do now, you want to put them 1682 00:58:25,103 --> 00:58:25,303 all on the first, second, third 1683 00:58:25,303 --> 00:58:26,638 floor? 1684 00:58:26,638 --> 00:58:27,605 >> in fact, good question. 1685 00:58:27,605 --> 00:58:28,239 And that actually prompted, I 1686 00:58:28,239 --> 00:58:31,239 think, the desire of ownership 1687 00:58:35,614 --> 00:58:37,514 for the change. 1688 00:58:37,514 --> 00:58:38,450 Over time tenants will come, 1689 00:58:38,450 --> 00:58:39,950 tenants will go. 1690 00:58:39,950 --> 00:58:40,885 In order to be able to make sure 1691 00:58:40,885 --> 00:58:42,387 they can accommodate them in 1692 00:58:42,387 --> 00:58:43,588 various parts of the building, 1693 00:58:43,588 --> 00:58:45,123 they wanted to have a 1694 00:58:45,123 --> 00:58:45,690 flexibility to move the units 1695 00:58:45,690 --> 00:58:46,925 around. 1696 00:58:46,925 --> 00:58:49,925 Whereas if you're locked in 1697 00:58:49,928 --> 00:58:51,963 specific units, you know, then 1698 00:58:51,963 --> 00:58:53,532 those will always be -- I mean, 1699 00:58:53,532 --> 00:58:56,532 these workforce units will be 1700 00:58:57,202 --> 00:59:00,202 integrated with all the units 1701 00:59:00,338 --> 00:59:02,700 throughout the entire complex. 1702 00:59:02,700 --> 00:59:03,441 So it gives them more 1703 00:59:03,441 --> 00:59:03,674 flexibility and it works a lot 1704 00:59:03,674 --> 00:59:05,674 better. 1705 00:59:09,181 --> 00:59:11,715 >> but I'm really concerned with 1706 00:59:11,715 --> 00:59:12,384 that item, because people in 1707 00:59:12,384 --> 00:59:13,452 sunny isles because everything 1708 00:59:13,452 --> 00:59:14,486 is going higher and higher in 1709 00:59:14,486 --> 00:59:16,486 the prices. 1710 00:59:17,489 --> 00:59:21,890 And if you have the 35 units 1711 00:59:21,526 --> 00:59:24,526 right now, very well described 1712 00:59:24,763 --> 00:59:26,131 that you have, I don't see what 1713 00:59:26,131 --> 00:59:29,131 would be the difference of 1714 00:59:29,534 --> 00:59:30,340 changing the numbers of having 1715 00:59:30,340 --> 00:59:31,203 it open. 1716 00:59:31,203 --> 00:59:33,671 What I'm scared is right now you 1717 00:59:33,671 --> 00:59:37,142 might have five units on the top 1718 00:59:37,142 --> 00:59:37,709 floor with a very nice view and 1719 00:59:37,709 --> 00:59:38,844 then we can move those five 1720 00:59:38,844 --> 00:59:39,177 units to the bottom floor with 1721 00:59:39,177 --> 00:59:40,120 no view. 1722 00:59:40,120 --> 00:59:42,412 I don't know -- 1723 00:59:42,414 --> 00:59:44,115 >> first of all the covenant 1724 00:59:44,115 --> 00:59:45,484 requires, no matter what, there 1725 00:59:45,484 --> 00:59:45,951 always must be 35 units. 1726 00:59:45,951 --> 00:59:47,951 >> correct. 1727 00:59:48,887 --> 00:59:51,824 >> so this is not changing the 1728 00:59:51,824 --> 00:59:53,859 number of units whatsoever. 1729 00:59:53,859 --> 00:59:56,929 But what it is doing is as we 1730 00:59:56,929 --> 00:59:59,498 realize is the flexibility to 1731 00:59:59,498 --> 01:00:03,698 say, as to where the units are, 1732 01:00:04,770 --> 01:00:06,710 because tenants come and go. 1733 01:00:06,710 --> 01:00:07,806 And, you know, you might want to 1734 01:00:07,806 --> 01:00:09,775 put a tenant in another unit, a 1735 01:00:09,775 --> 01:00:11,243 new tenant in another unit. 1736 01:00:11,243 --> 01:00:13,450 It just -- and that's candidly, 1737 01:00:13,450 --> 01:00:13,545 the way, I think most of the 1738 01:00:13,545 --> 01:00:15,545 workforce housing unit 1739 01:00:20,953 --> 01:00:22,953 allocations go. 1740 01:00:23,880 --> 01:00:24,890 >> commissioner, just to add to 1741 01:00:24,890 --> 01:00:25,191 that, as part of our workforce 1742 01:00:25,191 --> 01:00:26,759 housing ordinance, they're 1743 01:00:26,759 --> 01:00:28,327 required to submit an annual 1744 01:00:28,327 --> 01:00:29,962 report every OCTOBER to my 1745 01:00:29,962 --> 01:00:30,296 department that's going to be 1746 01:00:30,296 --> 01:00:31,530 reviewed. 1747 01:00:31,530 --> 01:00:33,432 And in that report it does need 1748 01:00:33,432 --> 01:00:35,768 to list every unit number. 1749 01:00:35,768 --> 01:00:37,136 So at that time, you know, if we 1750 01:00:37,136 --> 01:00:38,771 see that they're all on floor 1751 01:00:38,771 --> 01:00:39,471 one, well that's in violation of 1752 01:00:39,471 --> 01:00:40,873 their covenant. 1753 01:00:40,873 --> 01:00:41,107 They need to be on multiple 1754 01:00:41,107 --> 01:00:42,742 floors. 1755 01:00:42,742 --> 01:00:45,276 So we will be monitoring the 1756 01:00:45,276 --> 01:00:46,511 workforce housing program. 1757 01:00:46,511 --> 01:00:47,513 >> I understand. 1758 01:00:47,513 --> 01:00:47,780 I'm just not comfortable with 1759 01:00:47,780 --> 01:00:48,347 that item. 1760 01:00:48,347 --> 01:00:51,947 And the last one about the 1761 01:00:53,185 --> 01:00:54,954 marina, I see my neighbors here 1762 01:00:54,954 --> 01:00:57,890 in poinciana, and I understand 1763 01:00:57,890 --> 01:01:00,890 why they're upset, because the 1764 01:01:00,893 --> 01:01:04,960 way the marina slips are managed 1765 01:01:04,960 --> 01:01:06,496 in poinciana, is very 1766 01:01:08,100 --> 01:01:09,834 questionable, to say the least. 1767 01:01:09,834 --> 01:01:11,300 Some people would even call it 1768 01:01:11,300 --> 01:01:12,905 fraudulent what they're doing 1769 01:01:12,905 --> 01:01:14,207 with the marina slips in 1770 01:01:14,207 --> 01:01:15,774 poinciana island. 1771 01:01:15,774 --> 01:01:16,108 So I understand their concerns, 1772 01:01:16,108 --> 01:01:18,108 really. 1773 01:01:18,276 --> 01:01:18,911 But having said that the numbers 1774 01:01:18,911 --> 01:01:20,911 don't lie. 1775 01:01:21,981 --> 01:01:24,981 You have 32.7 units per slip. 1776 01:01:25,717 --> 01:01:27,654 Because you have a total of 589 1777 01:01:27,654 --> 01:01:27,920 units between the three 1778 01:01:27,920 --> 01:01:29,920 buildings. 1779 01:01:30,724 --> 01:01:33,724 So I want to repeat. 1780 01:01:33,960 --> 01:01:35,194 You have almost 600 units, and 1781 01:01:35,194 --> 01:01:35,928 18 slips. 1782 01:01:35,928 --> 01:01:38,597 So that give you per slip 32.7 1783 01:01:38,597 --> 01:01:40,597 units. 1784 01:01:43,136 --> 01:01:44,637 So I don't know how it's going 1785 01:01:44,637 --> 01:01:46,471 to be the dynamics you are going 1786 01:01:46,471 --> 01:01:47,974 to be using to ashrine the 1787 01:01:47,974 --> 01:01:49,409 slips, it's going to be a 1788 01:01:49,409 --> 01:01:51,210 lottery or whatever. 1789 01:01:51,210 --> 01:01:54,547 But having said that, I didn't 1790 01:01:54,547 --> 01:01:55,882 see anywhere, maybe you said but 1791 01:01:55,882 --> 01:01:59,850 I didn't read it, the limits to 1792 01:01:59,850 --> 01:02:01,200 the size of the boats. 1793 01:02:01,200 --> 01:02:01,621 And also, the marina was there 1794 01:02:01,621 --> 01:02:04,621 you said back almost 20 years 1795 01:02:06,659 --> 01:02:08,610 ago. 1796 01:02:08,610 --> 01:02:10,596 I don't feel comfortable right 1797 01:02:10,596 --> 01:02:13,399 now with bringing this item and 1798 01:02:13,399 --> 01:02:13,666 approving this item the way it's 1799 01:02:13,666 --> 01:02:15,134 presented. 1800 01:02:15,134 --> 01:02:19,334 So I leave it to my colleagues 1801 01:02:22,475 --> 01:02:24,475 for further comments. 1802 01:02:25,178 --> 01:02:26,980 >> Mayor: I don't see that, you 1803 01:02:26,980 --> 01:02:29,549 know, delaying this has any 1804 01:02:29,549 --> 01:02:31,549 value or merit. 1805 01:02:31,651 --> 01:02:34,955 I feel that, you know, I'm very 1806 01:02:34,955 --> 01:02:37,955 comfortable with all four items. 1807 01:02:38,157 --> 01:02:39,492 The workforce housing covenant 1808 01:02:39,492 --> 01:02:40,460 has changed to give more 1809 01:02:40,460 --> 01:02:41,528 flexibility, but it doesn't 1810 01:02:41,528 --> 01:02:44,528 mitigate the number of units. 1811 01:02:44,965 --> 01:02:46,566 It just, you know, is how the -- 1812 01:02:46,566 --> 01:02:47,601 how the rentals work. 1813 01:02:47,601 --> 01:02:50,100 So it's a requirement. 1814 01:02:50,200 --> 01:02:51,271 It's a covenant. 1815 01:02:51,271 --> 01:02:52,806 And it's -- they're always going 1816 01:02:52,806 --> 01:02:53,907 to have those 34 workforce 1817 01:02:53,907 --> 01:02:55,907 housing units. 1818 01:02:57,744 --> 01:02:58,979 For me, that's a nonissue. 1819 01:02:58,979 --> 01:03:01,379 It's just very minor. 1820 01:03:01,915 --> 01:03:02,115 The signage, obviously, is 1821 01:03:02,115 --> 01:03:02,849 minor. 1822 01:03:02,849 --> 01:03:04,317 The cable. 1823 01:03:04,317 --> 01:03:07,917 And for the marina, again, if 1824 01:03:09,952 --> 01:03:10,600 it's pre-existing, and you've 1825 01:03:10,600 --> 01:03:12,526 got the slips, and you can get 1826 01:03:12,526 --> 01:03:14,261 it permitted, and, you know, I 1827 01:03:14,261 --> 01:03:15,562 think it will beautify the area 1828 01:03:15,562 --> 01:03:16,296 and I'm comfortable with that, 1829 01:03:16,296 --> 01:03:17,597 as well. 1830 01:03:17,597 --> 01:03:18,232 >> so I have some questions. 1831 01:03:18,232 --> 01:03:21,832 So, obviously you had a marina 1832 01:03:22,302 --> 01:03:24,302 there before. 1833 01:03:24,738 --> 01:03:26,506 That was a long time ago. 1834 01:03:26,506 --> 01:03:27,741 Things change. 1835 01:03:27,741 --> 01:03:30,844 So I just want to know if it's 1836 01:03:30,844 --> 01:03:32,713 comparable, and the size of the 1837 01:03:32,713 --> 01:03:35,713 boats that it will house. 1838 01:03:37,184 --> 01:03:37,851 And if it's going to be the same 1839 01:03:37,851 --> 01:03:39,319 dimensions as before. 1840 01:03:39,319 --> 01:03:39,753 And if it's going to go in the 1841 01:03:39,753 --> 01:03:41,753 same place. 1842 01:03:42,890 --> 01:03:42,756 Because I know that one of the 1843 01:03:42,756 --> 01:03:44,858 poinciana residents said that 1844 01:03:44,858 --> 01:03:45,492 it's going to be placed in the 1845 01:03:45,492 --> 01:03:48,492 narrowest point of that canal, 1846 01:03:50,630 --> 01:03:52,630 let's say. 1847 01:03:52,766 --> 01:03:55,469 So that, I have those questions. 1848 01:03:55,469 --> 01:03:56,503 And yeah, I'll let you answer 1849 01:03:56,503 --> 01:03:58,503 those. 1850 01:04:00,307 --> 01:04:02,900 >> commissioner, well, it is 1851 01:04:02,900 --> 01:04:03,777 where the marina was located 1852 01:04:03,777 --> 01:04:04,344 before. 1853 01:04:04,344 --> 01:04:05,946 Remember, derm would only 1854 01:04:05,946 --> 01:04:07,781 approve it -- is approving it 1855 01:04:07,781 --> 01:04:08,382 also based on the fact that 1856 01:04:08,382 --> 01:04:09,183 there were historic 18 slips 1857 01:04:09,183 --> 01:04:09,416 there. 1858 01:04:09,416 --> 01:04:11,416 >> okay. 1859 01:04:16,423 --> 01:04:19,930 >> the length of boats is also 1860 01:04:19,930 --> 01:04:19,560 regulated by how far out you 1861 01:04:19,560 --> 01:04:20,194 could put the mooring 1862 01:04:20,194 --> 01:04:21,529 ing 1863 01:04:21,529 --> 01:04:23,529 ing poles. 1864 01:04:24,631 --> 01:04:25,833 Which are regulated by the city, 1865 01:04:25,833 --> 01:04:28,402 as well as by derm. 1866 01:04:28,402 --> 01:04:29,436 These are not very -- we are not 1867 01:04:29,436 --> 01:04:30,771 seeking variances to extend them 1868 01:04:30,771 --> 01:04:31,806 so that they can be farther out. 1869 01:04:31,806 --> 01:04:33,806 >> okay. 1870 01:04:35,276 --> 01:04:35,743 >> so these are -- this is 1871 01:04:35,743 --> 01:04:37,110 essentially what was 1872 01:04:37,110 --> 01:04:37,244 historically always there. 1873 01:04:37,244 --> 01:04:39,244 >> okay. 1874 01:04:39,980 --> 01:04:41,549 All right. 1875 01:04:41,549 --> 01:04:42,316 Yeah I'm just a little 1876 01:04:42,316 --> 01:04:43,316 concerned, you know, with the 1877 01:04:43,316 --> 01:04:44,619 geography of that canal. 1878 01:04:44,619 --> 01:04:46,988 Obviously you have people in 1879 01:04:46,988 --> 01:04:48,456 front of you. 1880

here? 2091 01:11:15,879 --> 01:11:16,479 >> yes. 2092 01:11:16,479 --> 01:11:20,679 The one that has the was like 2093 01:11:21,551 --> 01:11:22,886 the watermelon shaped zone. 2094 01:11:22,886 --> 01:11:25,286 >> that became a restaurant? 2095 01:11:25,521 --> 01:11:27,424 >> when that shopping center was 2096 01:11:27,424 --> 01:11:29,930 built by the family in the '50s 2097 01:11:29,930 --> 01:11:29,293 my dad had a big drug store 2098 01:11:29,293 --> 01:11:30,427 there. 2099 01:11:30,427 --> 01:11:32,960 I've been coming to this city 2100 01:11:32,960 --> 01:11:32,596 since I was a little baby. 2101 01:11:32,596 --> 01:11:34,164 >> all right. 2102 01:11:34,164 --> 01:11:35,799 >> commissioner lama, I think 2103 01:11:35,799 --> 01:11:37,234 it's important to point out that 2104 01:11:37,234 --> 01:11:38,435 nowhere else in the city are 2105 01:11:38,435 --> 01:11:38,936 there time limits about boats 2106 01:11:38,936 --> 01:11:41,505 coming in and going out. 2107 01:11:41,505 --> 01:11:43,505 Okay? 2108 01:11:43,707 --> 01:11:46,509 They voluntarily have agreed to 2109 01:11:46,509 --> 01:11:48,379 the 6:00 to 12:00. 2110 01:11:48,379 --> 01:11:49,613 It's the only marina in the city 2111 01:11:49,613 --> 01:11:49,946 where there are time 2112 01:11:49,946 --> 01:11:51,946 requirements. 2113 01:11:51,949 --> 01:11:53,784 >> because I know that the one 2114 01:11:53,784 --> 01:11:54,418 in winston towers, and there's 2115 01:11:54,418 --> 01:11:55,190 another one that, you know, we 2116 01:11:55,190 --> 01:11:57,188 get a lot of noise complaints 2117 01:11:57,188 --> 01:11:59,188 for. 2118 01:11:59,256 --> 01:12:00,858 >> but you also have our 2119 01:12:00,858 --> 01:12:02,660 asurance, commissioner, that we 2120 01:12:02,660 --> 01:12:03,827 will -- this will be heavily 2121 01:12:03,827 --> 01:12:04,261 managed, well managed. 2122 01:12:04,261 --> 01:12:05,196 It's a family asset. 2123 01:12:05,196 --> 01:12:08,196 And they want a good 2124 01:12:12,690 --> 01:12:14,690 environment. 2125 01:12:17,208 --> 01:12:17,742 [Speaker off mic] 2126 01:12:17,742 --> 01:12:18,309 >> it doesn't make sense. 2127 01:12:18,309 --> 01:12:21,309 >> party boats and all that. 2128 01:12:30,922 --> 01:12:31,321 >> no. 2129 01:12:31,321 --> 01:12:32,556 [Speaker off mic] 2130 01:12:32,556 --> 01:12:35,260 >> just a couple of questions. 2131 01:12:35,260 --> 01:12:36,930 For me it's pretty clear that 2132 01:12:36,930 --> 01:12:36,761 you meet the criteria. 2133 01:12:36,761 --> 01:12:40,898 Whether we love it or we don't, 2134 01:12:40,898 --> 01:12:42,633 the criteria is the criteria. 2135 01:12:42,633 --> 01:12:44,769 But I had a question about the 2136 01:12:44,769 --> 01:12:44,969 length of the lease of the 2137 01:12:44,969 --> 01:12:46,969 slips. 2138 01:12:47,105 --> 01:12:50,640 How does it go, per when you 2139 01:12:50,640 --> 01:12:52,640 rent the unit? 2140 01:12:53,844 --> 01:12:57,382 And then if you have a weight 2141 01:12:57,382 --> 01:12:59,183 list and how do you move up that 2142 01:12:59,183 --> 01:12:59,584 list, do you have to get your 2143 01:12:59,584 --> 01:13:01,486 neighbor evicted? 2144 01:13:01,486 --> 01:13:03,886 How does that work? 2145 01:13:04,521 --> 01:13:05,189 >> so the reason we're 2146 01:13:05,189 --> 01:13:06,824 proceeding with the project in 2147 01:13:06,824 --> 01:13:07,925 this is because we weren't 2148 01:13:07,925 --> 01:13:10,925 certain that there would be 2149 01:13:11,962 --> 01:13:12,964 interest for all of the slips. 2150 01:13:12,964 --> 01:13:15,799 We're finding out that there are 2151 01:13:15,799 --> 01:13:16,401 some tenants now that are coming 2152 01:13:16,401 --> 01:13:19,401 and are interested in those. 2153 01:13:19,737 --> 01:13:21,706 So they're one-year leases. 2154 01:13:21,706 --> 01:13:23,274 And I think one of the things 2155 01:13:23,274 --> 01:13:24,209 that's very important to us, we 2156 01:13:24,209 --> 01:13:27,809 developed a whole list of marina 2157 01:13:27,946 --> 01:13:30,181 rules, which we submitted as 2158 01:13:30,181 --> 01:13:31,281 part of this application. 2159 01:13:31,281 --> 01:13:34,520 Our greatest concern is there 2160 01:13:34,520 --> 01:13:34,252 isn't partying going on on the 2161 01:13:34,252 --> 01:13:36,252 boats. 2162 01:13:36,254 --> 01:13:37,222 So we have a very strict list of 2163 01:13:37,222 --> 01:13:39,222 rules. 2164 01:13:39,657 --> 01:13:40,992 Because our goal is to protect 2165 01:13:40,992 --> 01:13:41,192 even the residents who don't 2166 01:13:41,192 --> 01:13:41,793 rent. 2167 01:13:41,793 --> 01:13:44,620 But it's a first come, first 2168 01:13:44,620 --> 01:13:46,620 serve basis. 2169 01:13:46,640 --> 01:13:46,531 And yes, there would be a wait 2170 01:13:46,531 --> 01:13:46,764 list. 2171 01:13:46,764 --> 01:13:48,764 And -- 2172 01:13:49,200 --> 01:13:50,869 >> so if I come in, and I come 2173 01:13:50,869 --> 01:13:51,603 in with my boat and I move in. 2174 01:13:51,603 --> 01:13:52,470 >> right. 2175 01:13:52,470 --> 01:13:54,706 >> so I get my slip. 2176 01:13:54,706 --> 01:13:55,907 And if I follow all the rules, 2177 01:13:55,907 --> 01:13:58,176 you don't have any problems with 2178 01:13:58,176 --> 01:14:00,345 me, as long as I keep renewing 2179 01:14:00,345 --> 01:14:00,612 my lease, I get to keep renewing 2180 01:14:00,612 --> 01:14:01,613 the slip? 2181 01:14:01,613 --> 01:14:03,613 >> absolutely. 2182 01:14:05,217 --> 01:14:06,551 >> okay. 2183 01:14:06,551 --> 01:14:08,551 >> absolutely. 2184 01:14:09,187 --> 01:14:12,187 >> and I had another question. 2185 01:14:13,591 --> 01:14:15,591 Okay. 2186 01:14:17,429 --> 01:14:19,597 I saw in the report, you have to 2187 01:14:19,597 --> 01:14:19,797 be a resident there to rent. 2188 01:14:19,797 --> 01:14:20,197 Right? 2189 01:14:20,197 --> 01:14:21,867 >> that's correct. 2190 01:14:21,867 --> 01:14:23,568 >> but -- so you have to show 2191 01:14:23,568 --> 01:14:24,102 that you're -- you have to prove 2192 01:14:24,102 --> 01:14:24,703 that you're a resident. 2193 01:14:24,703 --> 01:14:26,505 But do you have to prove that 2194 01:14:26,505 --> 01:14:26,738 it's your boat? 2195 01:14:26,738 --> 01:14:28,738 >> yes. 2196 01:14:30,308 --> 01:14:32,177 >> okay. 2197 01:14:32,177 --> 01:14:33,211 >> you have to not only prove 2198 01:14:33,211 --> 01:14:34,346 it's your boat. 2199 01:14:34,346 --> 01:14:35,547 You can't rent somebody else's 2200 01:14:35,547 --> 01:14:36,882 boat and park it there. 2201 01:14:36,882 --> 01:14:37,416 >> that's where I'm going. 2202 01:14:37,416 --> 01:14:38,951 >> none of that. 2203 01:14:38,951 --> 01:14:40,919 All of that is policed. 2204 01:14:40,919 --> 01:14:41,587 We have a licensed marine dock 2205 01:14:41,587 --> 01:14:45,787 master that will serve us in the 2206 01:14:47,590 --> 01:14:47,926 leasing, and the filing of their 2207 01:14:47,926 --> 01:14:48,694 requirement to meet our lease 2208 01:14:48,694 --> 01:14:50,428 and rule requirements. 2209 01:14:50,428 --> 01:14:50,729 And that will be vetted by 2210 01:14:50,729 --> 01:14:52,729 management. 2211 01:14:53,632 --> 01:14:53,932 And then once you have a lease, 2212 01:14:53,932 --> 01:14:54,399 it's yours. 2213 01:14:54,399 --> 01:14:54,633 On a renewable basis. 2214

party 2218 01:15:04,943 --> 01:15:08,543 boat issues, and the other, but 2219 01:15:09,214 --> 01:15:11,383 it's -- it's to the interest of 2220 01:15:11,383 --> 01:15:11,917 your property, and your

01:15:33,739 --> 01:15:34,940 the waterway and it appears to 2232 01:15:34,940 --> 01:15:35,708 be 178 feet. 2233 01:15:35,708 --> 01:15:37,409 >> yeah. 2234 01:15:37,409 --> 01:15:38,811 And it's on our drawings, I 2235 01:15:38,811 --> 01:15:39,878 would like to answer you yes 2236 01:15:39,878 --> 01:15:42,248 that's exactly what it is. 2237 01:15:42,248 --> 01:15:42,748 But I'd have to look at the 2238 01:15:42,748 --> 01:15:44,316 drawings. 2239 01:15:44,316 --> 01:15:46,786 But the waterway on our drawings 2240 01:15:46,786 --> 01:15:48,154 is defined in each location 2241 01:15:48,154 --> 01:15:50,356 relative to our slip. 2242 01:15:50,356 --> 01:15:51,757 And derm has reviewed those 2243 01:15:51,757 --> 01:15:53,893 locations and minimized the 2244 01:15:53,893 --> 01:15:55,760 length of our slips and mooring 2245 01:15:55,760 --> 01:15:57,196 positions to reflect the 2246 01:15:57,196 --> 01:15:57,463 requirements of derm and the 2247 01:15:57,463 --> 01:15:59,463 channel. 2248 01:15:59,998 --> 01:16:00,366 >> so your slips are 24 feet 2249 01:16:00,366 --> 01:16:02,366 currently. 2250 01:16:02,434 --> 01:16:06,340 And what are they four pilings, 2251 01:16:06,305 --> 01:16:06,539 right, every six feet you have a 2252 01:16:06,539 --> 01:16:08,440 piling? 2253 01:16:08,440 --> 01:16:09,208 So, in temgs of the walkway 2254 01:16:09,208 --> 01:16:11,208 going down -- 2255 01:16:11,577 --> 01:16:12,430 >> no talking about the t-slip. 2256 01:16:12,430 --> 01:16:12,778 >> yes. 2257 01:16:12,778 --> 01:16:13,212 >> so you'd have four pilings. 2258 01:16:13,212 -->

--> 01:16:26,250 So, so, the maximum length of 2263 01:16:26,250 --> 01:16:28,160 the boat would probably be 2264 01:16:28,160 --> 01:16:28,360 between 45 and 60? 2265 01:16:28,360 --> 01:16:30,360 >>

01:37:50,180 --> 01:37:50,285 construction going on with the 2855 01:37:50,285 --> 01:37:50,486 garage. 2856 01:37:50,486 --> 01:37:52,486 Right? 2857 01:37:55,289 --> 01:37:56,758 And it makes it difficult to 2858 01:37:56,758 --> 01:37:58,193 really, you know, cars, 2859 01:37:58,193 --> 01:37:58,527 construction, and, you know, 2860 01:37:58,527 --> 01:38:00,527 interference. 2861 01:38:01,960 --> 01:38:03,980 I think that was part of it, to 2862 01:38:03,980 --> 01:38:04,800 allow to get that -- get that 2863 01:38:04,800 --> 01:38:04,882 building finally constructed 2864 01:38:04,882 --> 01:38:05,434 - 2865 01:38:05,434 --> 01:38:06,535 before we -- 2866 01:38:06,535 --> 01:38:08,535 >> that's correct. 2867 01:38:09,370 --> 01:38:11,273 There's some pre-existing 2868 01:38:11,273 --> 01:38:13,208 approvals that will take up the 2869 01:38:13,208 --> 01:38:14,476 west side of the property. 2870 01:38:14,476 --> 01:38:15,878 Which would encumber the 2871 01:38:15,878 --> 01:38:17,120 property from the perspective of 2872 01:38:17,120 --> 01:38:17,479 having a dumpster and things 2873 01:38:17,479 --> 01:38:19,479 like that. 2874 01:38:20,480 --> 01:38:22,484 So we currently have an option 2875 01:38:22,484 --> 01:38:24,453 with our existing tenant to 2876 01:38:24,453 --> 01:38:27,990 extend the lease for six months 2877 01:38:27,990 --> 01:38:30,859 up to a year at a rate of 2878 01:38:30,859 --> 01:38:31,660 $20,000 a month. 2879 01:38:31,660 --> 01:38:32,361 >> Mayor: which would, you know, 2880 01:38:32,361 --> 01:38:34,630 more than cover. 2881 01:38:34,630 --> 01:38:35,231 I think the issue really is 2882 01:38:35,231 --> 01:38:36,265 while that construction's going 2883 01:38:36,265 --> 01:38:39,235 on it's difficult for any 2884 01:38:39,235 --> 01:38:39,869 restaurant to really come in, 2885 01:38:39,869 --> 01:38:40,360 and, you know, effectively open 2886 01:38:40,360 --> 01:38:42,360 up. 2887 01:38:43,305 --> 01:38:43,672 I mean, that's part of it. 2888 01:38:43,672 --> 01:38:46,720 Is, you know -- 2889 01:38:46,108 --> 01:38:48,410 >> but the fact that we have two 2890 01:38:48,410 --> 01:38:50,780 residents here that are 2891 01:38:50,780 --> 01:38:51,314 interested, they know the 2892 01:38:51,314 --> 01:38:53,215 conditions, as well. 2893 01:38:53,215 --> 01:38:54,350 And even with the process, it 2894 01:38:54,350 --> 01:38:56,350 takes time, right? 2895 01:38:58,754 --> 01:39:00,523 Like you have to announce it, 2896 01:39:00,523 --> 01:39:02,425 and prepare, et cetera. 2897 01:39:02,425 --> 01:39:06,280 So, what would be the time frame 2898 01:39:06,280 --> 01:39:06,696 to start all over again that 2899 01:39:06,696 --> 01:39:08,598 process? 2900 01:39:08,598 --> 01:39:09,531 >> to release the solicitation 2901 01:39:09,531 --> 01:39:10,500 process, at least to advertise 2902 01:39:10,500 --> 01:39:10,700 and release a minimum of 30 2903 01:39:10,700 --> 01:39:11,133 days. 2904 01:39:11,133 --> 01:39:13,133 And that's minimum. 2905 01:39:15,438 --> 01:39:16,372 >> correct. 2906 01:39:16,372 --> 01:39:17,206 >> Mayor: when is that garage 2907 01:39:17,206 --> 01:39:18,773 going to be open? 2908 01:39:18,773 --> 01:39:18,974 Are we talking six months from 2909 01:39:18,974 --> 01:39:20,974 now? 2910 01:39:21,209 --> 01:39:21,510 Or eight months? 2911 01:39:21,510 --> 01:39:22,811 How long -- 2912 01:39:22,811 --> 01:39:24,213 >> the estimate is a year. 2913 01:39:24,213 --> 01:39:27,483 So by DECEMBER of next year. 2914 01:39:27,483 --> 01:39:29,483 If not sooner. 2915 01:39:30,190 --> 01:39:32,355 >> MR. City manager, when tony 2916 01:39:32,355 --> 01:39:32,921 roma's was easing the property, 2917 01:39:32,921 --> 01:39:36,521 what was their rent, do you 2918 01:39:38,661 --> 01:39:39,429 recall? 2919 01:39:39,429 --> 01:39:42,932 >> I think it was 20,000 plus a 2920 01:39:42,932 --> 01:39:44,932 percentage. 2921 01:39:46,168 --> 01:39:47,360 >> so it's not -- it's not a 2922 01:39:47,360 --> 01:39:49,720 revenue, it's really more 2923 01:39:49,720 --> 01:39:49,872 because of the staging and the 2924 01:39:49,872 --> 01:39:50,673 construction of the garage -- 2925 01:39:50,673 --> 01:39:54,273 >> the city would be at a 2926 01:39:55,311 --> 01:39:56,790 deficit to -- if we leased it 2927 01:39:56,790 --> 01:39:58,479 under those conditions, we 2928 01:39:58,548 --> 01:40:01,184 wouldn't get -- be able to get 2929 01:40:01,184 --> 01:40:02,185 the maximum amount. 2930 01:40:02,185 --> 01:40:04,821 >> the other part is that the 2931 01:40:04,821 --> 01:40:06,890 city would have to pay the 2932 01:40:06,890 --> 01:40:07,357 taxes, and we're in negotiations 2933 01:40:07,357 --> 01:40:10,193 with the current tenant that 2934 01:40:10,193 --> 01:40:11,260 would require them to pay the 2935 01:40:11,260 --> 01:40:14,260 taxes, depending upon the length 2936 01:40:17,367 --> 01:40:18,802 of their next lease with us. 2937 01:40:18,802 --> 01:40:19,536 >> but right now they're -- 2938 01:40:19,536 --> 01:40:20,336 >> correct. 2939 01:40:20,336 --> 01:40:21,471 They're scheduled to vacate at 2940 01:40:21,471 --> 01:40:22,339 the end of the month. 2941 01:40:22,339 --> 01:40:24,739 >> and they're interested in 2942 01:40:24,741 --> 01:40:26,710 staying for another year? 2943 01:40:26,710 --> 01:40:27,310 >> yes, they are. 2944 01:40:27,310 --> 01:40:27,744 In conjunction with the 2945 01:40:27,744 --> 01:40:29,112 construction. 2946 01:40:29,112 --> 01:40:31,512 >> I mean, again, that's 2947 01:40:32,182 --> 01:40:33,616 probably why we didn't get a lot 2948 01:40:33,616 --> 01:40:33,917 of bids. 2949 01:40:33,917 --> 01:40:35,917 Right? 2950 01:40:36,520 --> 01:40:37,220 Because no -- it's unrealistic 2951 01:40:37,220 --> 01:40:40,724 to think that a restaurant, even 2952 01:40:40,724 --> 01:40:44,827 if they got in right away, you 2953 01:40:44,827 --> 01:40:48,427 know, whether they could get in, 2954 01:40:48,465 --> 01:40:49,499 and get in the construction and 2955 01:40:49,499 --> 01:40:51,899 interference in that area. 2956 01:40:52,334 --> 01:40:53,236 >> -- out of the city, as well. 2957 01:40:53,236 --> 01:40:55,305 >> construction inside and to 2958 01:40:55,305 --> 01:40:56,907 get ready. 2959 01:40:56,907 --> 01:40:59,843 >> so really doesn't make sense 2960 01:40:59,843 --> 01:41:00,977 for us to resubmit it at this 2961 01:41:00,977 --> 01:41:01,578 point except to the current 2962 01:41:01,578 --> 01:41:03,578 persons -- 2963 01:41:03,613 --> 01:41:04,814 >> Mayor: that's my thought. 2964 01:41:04,814 --> 01:41:05,983 >> stay with this situation 2965 01:41:05,983 --> 01:41:06,616 until -- 2966 01:41:06,616 --> 01:41:07,918 >> Mayor: it's a -- 2967 01:41:07,918 --> 01:41:08,185 >> -- garage construction is 2968 01:41:08,185 --> 01:41:09,953 complete. 2969 01:41:09,953 --> 01:41:10,721 >> Mayor: it's a disservice to 2970 01:41:10,721 --> 01:41:11,287 go immediately into a, you know, 2971 01:41:11,287 --> 01:41:14,287 a bidding process for that 2972 01:41:14,690 --> 01:41:16,426 space, given the construction 2973 01:41:16,426 --> 01:41:16,693 and the impediment that's 2974 01:41:16,693 --> 01:41:18,693 occurring. 2975 01:41:19,630 --> 01:41:20,764 >> but remember that the 2976 01:41:20,764 --> 01:41:22,432 leasing, the bidding process 2977 01:41:22,432 --> 01:41:25,432 would take like three months. 2978 01:41:26,270 --> 01:41:27,370 And once we decide who's going 2979 01:41:27,370 --> 01:41:29,206 to be there they need like four 2980 01:41:29,206 --> 01:41:33,406 to six months also to get ready 2981 01:41:33,977 --> 01:41:35,211 for construction themselves. 2982 01:41:35,211 --> 01:41:37,211 >> yeah, but -- 2983 01:41:37,213 --> 01:41:37,548 >> yeah but it's going to happen 2984 01:41:37,548 --> 01:41:38,215 regardless. 2985 01:41:38,215 --> 01:41:40,215 Earlier or later. 2986 01:41:41,218 --> 01:41:42,190 So they're going to need the 2987 01:41:42,190 --> 01:41:43,787 time to build. 2988 01:41:43,787 --> 01:41:44,955 So do we have one construction 2989 01:41:44,955 --> 01:41:45,289 going on or have two 2990 01:41:45,289 --> 01:41:46,856 construction. 2991 01:41:46,856 --> 01:41:49,226 So maybe they can finish at the 2992 01:41:49,226 --> 01:41:50,930 same time. 2993 01:41:50,930 --> 01:41:51,428 And at the time that the 2994 01:41:51,428 --> 01:41:52,630 apartment is ready then the 2995 01:41:52,630 --> 01:41:52,997 restaurant can be opened. 2996 01:41:52,997 --> 01:41:54,997 >> right. 2997 01:41:56,000 --> 01:41:56,700 But in any event this is not the 2998 01:41:56,700 --> 01:41:57,334 moment to take bids. 2999 01:41:57,334 --> 01:42:00,400 Because the garage is not that 3000 01:42:00,400 --> 01:42:02,400 far along. 3001 01:42:05,209 --> 01:42:06,100 >> Mayor: for me, I think we 3002 01:42:06,100 --> 01:42:06,911 should, you know, reach out for 3003 01:42:06,911 --> 01:42:08,911 another six months. 3004 01:42:10,247 --> 01:42:13,217 We can start the bidding process 3005 01:42:13,217 --> 01:42:14,418 in six months maybe -- 3006 01:42:14,418 --> 01:42:15,619 >> but why do it -- 3007 01:42:15,619 --> 01:42:18,190 >> the tenant, because they 3008 01:42:18,889 --> 01:42:21,592 would be responsible for paying 3009 01:42:21,592 --> 01:42:22,920 the taxes, has requested a 3010 01:42:22,920 --> 01:42:22,359 minimum of a six month 3011 01:42:22,359 --> 01:42:23,460 extension. 3012 01:42:23,460 --> 01:42:25,860 The taxes are approximately 3013 01:42:25,863 --> 01:42:27,863 $60,000 on the space. 3014 01:42:28,650 --> 01:42:29,200 So if the tenant vacates then we 3015 01:42:29,200 --> 01:42:32,200 will be responsible for paying 3016 01:42:33,700 --> 01:42:34,710 the taxes for this next year. 3017 01:42:34,710 --> 01:42:35,873 >> but they have no other 3018 01:42:35,873 --> 01:42:36,207 opportunity to put their offices 3019 01:42:36,207 --> 01:42:37,475 anywhere. 3020 01:42:37,475 --> 01:42:38,809 So I think they need us more 3021 01:42:38,809 --> 01:42:41,209 than we need them. 3022 01:42:44,949 --> 01:42:48,549 >> Mayor: for me I think we 3023 01:42:48,886 --> 01:42:52,486 should, you know, I think we 3024 01:42:52,824 --> 01:42:54,125 should [Inaudible] 3025 01:42:54,125 --> 01:42:55,626 >> yeah, I would think five 3026 01:42:55,626 --> 01:42:58,626 months we could reopen the 3027 01:42:58,796 --> 01:43:01,265 bidding process, and be at a 3028 01:43:01,265 --> 01:43:02,566 good -- at a good, you know, 3029 01:43:02,566 --> 01:43:03,167 look-see situation. 3030 01:43:03,167 --> 01:43:06,167 >> how long does the bidding 3031 01:43:06,804 --> 01:43:08,804 process take? 3032 01:43:09,400 --> 01:43:10,174 What you just walked us through, 3033 01:43:10,174 --> 01:43:11,242 how long did that take? 3034 01:43:11,242 --> 01:43:12,410 >> I'll give you the schedule on 3035 01:43:12,410 --> 01:43:13,477 the existing rfp. 3036 01:43:13,477 --> 01:43:14,378 So the release was SEPTEMBER 3037 01:43:14,378 --> 01:43:16,378 9th. 3038 01:43:17,480 --> 01:43:17,648 The release that we released it 3039 01:43:17,648 --> 01:43:19,550 on demand star to the public. 3040 01:43:19,550 --> 01:43:21,550 >> so three months. 3041 01:43:25,223 --> 01:43:26,157 Okay. 3042 01:43:26,157 --> 01:43:29,600 >> okay I have my thoughts, too. 3043 01:43:29,600 --> 01:43:30,829 So I think we should desist from 3044 01:43:30,829 --> 01:43:32,263 making tony roma's or the old 3045 01:43:32,263 --> 01:43:33,665 tony roma's a restaurant. 3046 01:43:33,665 --> 01:43:34,599 I think we should use it for 3047 01:43:34,599 --> 01:43:35,700 office space. 3048 01:43:35,700 --> 01:43:35,900 We're super crowded on the third 3049 01:43:35,900 --> 01:43:37,900 floor. 3050 01:43:38,360 --> 01:43:39,270 And if you look at it from a 3051 01:43:39,270 --> 01:43:41,670 productivity standpoint, I think 3052 01:43:42,440 --> 01:43:44,309 that if we move some people 3053 01:43:44,309 --> 01:43:44,542 there, that that will work 3054 01:43:44,542 --> 01:43:44,742 better. 3055 01:43:44,742 --> 01:43:46,444 Okay? 3056 01:43:46,444 --> 01:43:47,145 We're not in the business of 3057 01:43:47,145 --> 01:43:47,345 being landlords. 3058 01:43:47,345 --> 01:43:49,147 Okay? 3059 01:43:49,147 --> 01:43:49,814 We've had bad experiences with 3060 01:43:49,814 --> 01:43:50,140 tony roma's. 3061 01:43:50,140 --> 01:43:51,416 Okay. 3062 01:43:51,416 --> 01:43:53,250 We only got small percentage on 3063 01:43:53,250 --> 01:43:55,250 the dollar. 3064 01:43:55,820 --> 01:43:59,240 For that rent that they owed us. 3065 01:43:59,240 --> 01:43:59,256 And then look at turnberry sales 3066 01:43:59,256 --> 01:43:59,890 office. 3067 01:43:59,890 --> 01:44:01,593 With this administration -- 3068 01:44:01,593 --> 01:44:03,228 >> -- the city's -- 3069 01:44:03,228 --> 01:44:03,995 >> I'm not saying it's the 3070 01:44:03,995 --> 01:44:05,295 city's fault. 3071 01:44:05,295 --> 01:44:06,364 But, but we should stay focused 3072 01:44:06,364 --> 01:44:07,966 on what our mission is. 3073 01:44:07,966 --> 01:44:09,634 And what our business is. 3074 01:44:09,634 --> 01:44:10,702 And I think we should move -- we 3075 01:44:10,702 --> 01:44:11,603 should use that. 3076 01:44:11,603 --> 01:44:13,204 It's a great space. 3077 01:44:13,204 --> 01:44:13,438 We should use it as office 3078 01:44:13,438 --> 01:44:15,438 space. 3079 01:44:16,173 --> 01:44:16,875 And forget about having a 3080 01:44:16,875 --> 01:44:18,875 restaurant there. 3081 01:44:19,644 --> 01:44:19,844 I mean, there's restaurants 3082 01:44:19,844 --> 01:44:20,845 here. 3083 01:44:20,845 --> 01:44:23,845 And that's not our business. 3084 01:44:24,683 --> 01:44:26,450 I mean, if we tie ourselves up 3085 01:44:26,450 --> 01:44:27,486 for a ten-year lease, I mean 3086 01:44:27,486 --> 01:44:29,888 right now we're having issues 3087 01:44:29,888 --> 01:44:31,523 with space. 3088 01:44:31,523 --> 01:44:35,961 I mean, I don't see why we have 3089 01:44:35,961 --> 01:44:37,963 to make it a restaurant there. 3090 01:44:37,963 --> 01:44:40,363 >> Mayor: alex recognizing your 3091 01:44:46,471 --> 01:44:47,406 comments

--> 01:44:57,282 Because, they would have to 3096 01:44:57,282 --> 01:45:00,282 leave these premises on or 3097 01:45:00,318 --> 01:45:02,318 before DECEMBER 31st. 3098 01:45:03,654 --> 01:45:04,856 So if you want an extension -- 3099 01:45:04,856 --> 01:45:06,856 >> I thought -- 3100 01:45:08,560 --> 01:45:09,995 >> but they need six more months 3101 01:45:09,995 --> 01:45:14,195 in order to agree to pay the 3102 01:45:16,401 --> 01:45:16,702 taxes for the coming year. 3103 01:45:16,702 --> 01:45:18,637 [Inaudible] 3104 01:45:18,637 --> 01:45:20,772 They're asking for a six-month 3105

01:59:44,643 --> 01:59:44,943 address is the timing of all 3548 01:59:44,943 --> 01:59:46,943 this. 3549 01:59:49,447 --> 01:59:49,714 As you know, we just had an 3550 01:59:49,714 --> 01:59:51,182 election. 3551 01:59:51,182 --> 01:59:53,182 mayor goldman lost. 3552 01:59:54,520 --> 01:59:55,587 For her being a transitional 3553 01:59:55,587 --> 01:59:57,987 figure SEPTEMBER and appointing 3554 02:00:00,225 --> 02:00:03,225 anyone to this commission looks 3555 02:00:03,395 --> 02:00:04,529 suspicious, looks shady, looks 3556 02:00:04,529 --> 02:00:06,529 strange. 3557 02:00:07,899 --> 02:00:10,269 There's no reason why mayor 3558 02:00:10,269 --> 02:00:12,237 goldman, with all due respect to 3559 02:00:12,237 --> 02:00:13,672 her, should be appointing anyone 3560 02:00:13,672 --> 02:00:15,600 to this commission when two 3561 02:00:15,600 --> 02:00:15,841 weeks from now we will have 3562 02:00:15,841 --> 02:00:17,841 another mayor. 3563 02:00:18,410 --> 02:00:20,450 So my recommendation to this 3564 02:00:20,450 --> 02:00:23,450 council, to this commission is 3565 02:00:25,250 --> 02:00:28,850 to reject this proposal for two 3566 02:00:29,154 --> 02:00:30,589 weeks until mayor svechin 3567 02:00:30,589 --> 02:00:32,589 becomes acting mayor. 3568 02:00:35,927 --> 02:00:37,963 And the cloud of this suspicion, 3569 02:00:37,963 --> 02:00:38,197 forgive the repetition, is 3570 02:00:38,197 --> 02:00:40,197 lifted. 3571 02:00:43,802 --> 02:00:45,802 Thank you. 3572 02:00:49,140 --> 02:00:51,140 [Applause] 3573 02:00:52,545 --> 02:00:52,845 >> Mayor: norman edelcup and dan 3574 02:00:52,845 --> 02:00:54,213 lynnhighser. 3575 02:00:54,213 --> 02:00:55,748 >> good evening, honorable mayor 3576 02:00:55,748 --> 02:00:57,748 and commissioners. 3577 02:00:58,317 --> 02:01:00,553 My name is normal edelcup, 3578 02:01:00,553 --> 02:01:04,153 former mayor of this city and 3579 02:01:05,224 --> 02:01:06,992 resident at 244 atlantic isle. 3580 02:01:06,992 --> 02:01:08,127 I'm probably one of the few 3581 02:01:08,127 --> 02:01:11,127 people here that was present 3582 02:01:11,197 --> 02:01:14,197 when the original charter was 3583 02:01:21,440 --> 02:01:23,509 put together and dan lenhieser 3584 02:01:23,509 --> 02:01:24,710 was appointed and when the mayor 3585 02:01:24,710 --> 02:01:27,113 got sworn in or the 3586 02:01:27,113 --> 02:01:29,480 commissioners got sworn in 3587 02:01:29,480 --> 02:01:29,348 within 24 hours from an 3588 02:01:29,348 --> 02:01:31,348 election. 3589 02:01:33,486 --> 02:01:36,486 By the time 2001 came along, 3590 02:01:36,821 --> 02:01:38,557 there were elections and we 3591 02:01:38,557 --> 02:01:40,326 noticed that there probably 3592 02:01:40,326 --> 02:01:44,526 needed to be a change in the 3593 02:01:46,265 --> 02:01:47,499 charter as to the timing 3594 02:01:47,499 --> 02:01:49,435 primarily because of civility 3595 02:01:49,435 --> 02:01:51,170 and courtesy we didn't want to 3596 02:01:51,170 --> 02:01:54,770 be kicking people out of office 3597 02:01:56,309 --> 02:01:58,144 the day after an election and we 3598 02:01:58,144 --> 02:01:59,379 timeline for a smooth 3599 02:01:59,379 --> 02:02:01,379 transition. 3600 02:02:03,582 --> 02:02:06,285 So in 2003 when the last -- the 3601 02:02:06,285 --> 02:02:07,787 first charter revision took 3602 02:02:07,787 --> 02:02:10,389 place, there was a provision 3603 02:02:10,389 --> 02:02:13,989 made in the charter which is 3604 02:02:22,460 --> 02:02:22,569 applying today that anyone 3605 02:02:22,569 --> 02:02:22,645 elected would wait 30 days 3606 02:02:22,645 --> 02:02:22,723 before coming in, realizing that 3607 02:02:22,723 --> 02:02:24,604 there could be a situation where 3608 02:02:24,604 --> 02:02:25,538 there would be a former mayor or 3609 02:02:25,538 --> 02:02:27,473 former commissioner still in 3610 02:02:27,473 --> 02:02:29,473 office for 30 days. 3611 02:02:32,312 --> 02:02:34,947 But we felt the courtesy 3612 02:02:34,947 --> 02:02:37,417 outweighed the negativity of the 3613 02:02:37,417 --> 02:02:40,417 situation and that major issues 3614 02:02:40,419 --> 02:02:42,355 really weren't going to be done 3615 02:02:42,355 --> 02:02:43,890 during let's call it a lame duck 3616 02:02:43,890 --> 02:02:45,890 period. 3617 02:02:46,590 --> 02:02:47,160 And that certainly, a new mayor 3618 02:02:47,160 --> 02:02:48,328 would be given the opportunity 3619 02:02:48,328 --> 02:02:50,897 or a new commissioner would be 3620 02:02:50,897 --> 02:02:52,932 given an opportunity to pick 3621 02:02:52,932 --> 02:02:55,701 people that would be serving on 3622 02:02:55,701 --> 02:02:56,690 committees during their time in 3623 02:02:56,690 --> 02:02:58,690 office. 3624 02:02:58,904 --> 02:03:00,539 So basically, I have two 3625 02:03:00,539 --> 02:03:02,539 recommendations. 3626 02:03:03,610 --> 02:03:04,844 One is change today's meeting to 3627 02:03:04,844 --> 02:03:06,212 include that the four 3628 02:03:06,212 --> 02:03:07,460 commissioners can make their 3629 02:03:07,460 --> 02:03:09,381 appointments today because they 3630 02:03:09,381 --> 02:03:11,217 will be on the new commission. 3631 02:03:11,217 --> 02:03:14,587 But reserve the right for the 3632 02:03:14,587 --> 02:03:18,910 incoming mayor to pick the fifth 3633 02:03:18,910 --> 02:03:20,660 person at the next JANUARY 3634 02:03:20,660 --> 02:03:22,696 meeting, or today just pass the 3635 02:03:22,696 --> 02:03:24,464 resolution that you will have a 3636 02:03:24,464 --> 02:03:27,464 charter committee and in JANUARY 3637 02:03:27,734 --> 02:03:28,901 all of you can fill in the five 3638 02:03:28,901 --> 02:03:31,638 people that you wish to be on 3639 02:03:31,638 --> 02:03:33,406 the committee. 3640 02:03:33,406 --> 02:03:34,541 In this way, I think justice 3641 02:03:34,541 --> 02:03:36,541 would be served. 3642 02:03:42,616 --> 02:03:44,170 The idea that we are basically 3643 02:03:44,170 --> 02:03:45,318 providing for civility and 3644 02:03:45,318 --> 02:03:47,190 common sense would prevail and 3645 02:03:47,190 --> 02:03:48,555 we wouldn't be sitting here with 3646 02:03:48,555 --> 02:03:50,955 this very awkward situation. 3647 02:03:51,580 --> 02:03:53,393 I'd like to now call lynn to 3648 02:03:53,393 --> 02:03:53,594 speak because my time is running 3649 02:03:53,594 --> 02:03:55,594 out. 3650 02:03:55,661 --> 02:03:59,261 And lynn, you can finish up. 3651 02:04:00,167 --> 02:04:00,434 >> let me just say, norman -- 3652 02:04:00,434 --> 02:04:02,434

--> 02:04:15,449 supreme court justices, what was 3657 02:04:15,449 --> 02:04:16,316 the end result? 3658 02:04:16,316 --> 02:04:19,316 >> give me the specifics that 3659 02:04:19,353 --> 02:04:20,487 you are talking about. 3660 02:04:20,487 --> 02:04:24,870 >> when we were told that trump 3661 02:04:24,558 --> 02:04:26,927 should not pick the supreme 3662 02:04:26,927 --> 02:04:28,495 court justice and leave way for 3663 02:04:28,495 --> 02:04:30,664 biden, what was the end result? 3664 02:04:30,664 --> 02:04:31,165 >> we are a local municipality. 3665 02:04:31,165 --> 02:04:32,333 >> I understand. 3666 02:04:32,333 --> 02:04:34,334 >> and I would hope that we 3667 02:04:34,334 --> 02:04:34,635 would have civility in our 3668 02:04:34,635 --> 02:04:36,635 community. 3669 02:04:38,339 --> 02:04:41,408 And I think what you are 3670 02:04:41,408 --> 02:04:42,342 suggesting is just running 3671 02:04:42,342 --> 02:04:44,712 roughshod over the situation. 3672 02:04:44,712 --> 02:04:45,946 But, you know, all I'm doing is 3673 02:04:45,946 --> 02:04:47,147 recommending that this be 3674 02:04:47,147 --> 02:04:47,481 delayed as it relates to the 3675 02:04:47,481 --> 02:04:48,616 mayor. 3676 02:04:48,616 --> 02:04:50,251 I'm not saying it should be 3677 02:04:50,251 --> 02:04:52,319 delayed to anybody else. 3678 02:04:52,319 --> 02:04:53,454 But if each of you are 3679 02:04:53,454 --> 02:04:55,189 appointing somebody, that means 3680 02:04:55,189 --> 02:04:57,124 you are going to be community 3681 02:04:57,124 --> 02:04:57,824 hitting with that one. 3682 02:04:57,824 --> 02:04:59,160 >> Mayor: norman, thank you. 3683 02:04:59,160 --> 02:05:00,728 You made your recommendation. 3684 02:05:00,728 --> 02:05:01,996 >> when the new mayor comes in, 3685 02:05:01,996 --> 02:05:04,864 she will be dealing with someone 3686 02:05:04,864 --> 02:05:07,234 that was appointed by the old 3687 02:05:07,234 --> 02:05:08,350 mayor, whereas all of you can be 3688 02:05:08,350 --> 02:05:09,903 dealing with the person that you 3689 02:05:09,903 --> 02:05:12,573 dealt with, but she won't be 3690 02:05:12,573 --> 02:05:12,873 able to do that. 3691 02:05:12,873 --> 02:05:13,874 [Inaudible] 3692 02:05:13,874 --> 02:05:15,443 I thought I was talking. 3693 02:05:15,443 --> 02:05:15,977 I didn't know you were going to 3694 02:05:15,977 --> 02:05:17,645 override me. 3695 02:05:17,645 --> 02:05:20,881 I would like the same courtesy 3696 02:05:20,881 --> 02:05:21,820 that I gave you when I was 3697 02:05:21,820 --> 02:05:23,820 mayor. 3698 02:05:23,551 --> 02:05:25,551 [Cheers and applause] 3699 02:05:26,219 --> 02:05:29,819 And I'm not attacking the fact 3700 02:05:31,559 --> 02:05:33,930 that her appointment would be 3701 02:05:33,930 --> 02:05:34,829 your [Inaudible]. 3702 02:05:34,829 --> 02:05:36,797 That' certainly permissible 3703 02:05:36,797 --> 02:05:39,467 under the code but it is very 3704 02:05:39,467 --> 02:05:40,601 unjust to take a lame duck 3705 02:05:40,601 --> 02:05:42,690 situation and force upon the 3706 02:05:42,690 --> 02:05:43,771 future commission and the future 3707 02:05:43,771 --> 02:05:45,373 mayor a person that she didn't 3708 02:05:45,373 --> 02:05:47,775 even select and would otherwise 3709 02:05:47,775 --> 02:05:49,510 vd the right to select if we had 3710 02:05:49,510 --> 02:05:51,579 left the charter the way it was 3711 02:05:51,579 --> 02:05:52,746 in the beginning. 3712 02:05:52,746 --> 02:05:54,482 But because we wanted to be 3713 02:05:54,482 --> 02:05:55,216 civil with each other, we gave 3714 02:05:55,216 --> 02:05:56,551 everybody 30 days. 3715 02:05:56,551 --> 02:05:58,986 And now somebody just wants to 3716 02:05:58,986 --> 02:06:00,855 take advantage of that, perhaps 3717 02:06:00,855 --> 02:06:02,790 we will have to go and change 3718 02:06:02,790 --> 02:06:04,158 the charter again at this next 3719 02:06:04,158 --> 02:06:06,527 commission to correct what we 3720 02:06:06,527 --> 02:06:10,127 thought was the right thing to 3721 02:06:10,398 --> 02:06:10,732 do, but it did have unintended 3722 02:06:10,732 --> 02:06:11,733 consequences. 3723 02:06:11,733 --> 02:06:13,670 >>

02:06:29,749 [Inaudible] 3731 02:06:30,518 --> 02:06:32,787 >> MAY it please the commission. 3732 02:06:32,787 --> 02:06:36,387 I'm here only as an historian 3733 02:06:39,427 --> 02:06:42,697 and somebody who in 1997 when I 3734 02:06:42,697 --> 02:06:45,300 was 25 wrote this charter -- 3735 02:06:45,300 --> 02:06:47,535 wrote the charter, and we did 3736 02:06:47,535 --> 02:06:50,304 provide, as the national civic 3737 02:06:50,304 --> 02:06:52,704 league recommended, that people 3738 02:06:55,310 --> 02:06:58,480 get installed the day after they 3739 02:06:58,480 --> 02:07:00,480 get elected. 3740 02:07:01,282 --> 02:07:03,952 The situation did arise where it 3741 02:07:03,952 --> 02:07:05,860 became difficult to throw people 3742 02:07:05,860 --> 02:07:07,822 physically out of their offices 3743 02:07:07,822 --> 02:07:09,822 the next day. 3744 02:07:10,392 --> 02:07:12,226 And so that charter 3745 02:07:12,226 --> 02:07:14,626 commission -- the revision 3746 02:07:14,696 --> 02:07:17,960 commission changed it for 30 3747 02:07:26,767 --> 02:07:26,878 days, at which, of course, I 3748 02:07:26,878 --> 02:07:26,960 drafted per their request. 3749 02:07:26,960 --> 02:07:27,400 But it didn't contemplate this 3750 02:07:27,400 --> 02:07:27,138 situation, obviously. 3751 02:07:27,138 --> 02:07:27,216 and that MAY be something you 3752 02:07:27,216 --> 02:07:27,642 want to take up with the new 3753 02:07:27,642 --> 02:07:29,642 revision commission. 3754 02:07:30,712 --> 02:07:32,800 But I'd like to remind you, the 3755 02:07:32,800 --> 02:07:33,314 city was formed -- and the 3756 02:07:33,314 --> 02:07:35,483 reason the charter was drafted 3757 02:07:35,483 --> 02:07:38,420 in the first place was because 3758 02:07:38,420 --> 02:07:39,153 this area was part of the 3759 02:07:39,153 --> 02:07:41,153 county. 3760 02:07:42,124 --> 02:07:44,559 And this -- the residents of 3761 02:07:44,559 --> 02:07:45,994 this city to become wanted 3762 02:07:45,994 --> 02:07:49,498 autonomy and wanted to be able 3763 02:07:49,498 --> 02:07:49,965 to be part of the decision 3764 02:07:49,965 --> 02:07:51,965 making. 3765 02:07:52,330 --> 02:07:53,670 And they wanted the government 3766 02:07:53,670 --> 02:07:55,670 close to themselves. 3767 02:07:55,137 --> 02:07:56,672 So they formed a city and we 3768 02:07:56,672 --> 02:07:58,907 drafted the charter with every 3769 02:07:58,907 --> 02:07:59,341 provision with that question in 3770 02:07:59,341 --> 02:08:01,341 mind. 3771 02:08:03,450 --> 02:08:03,278 Did it reflect the choice of the 3772 02:08:03,278 --> 02:08:04,980 people? 3773 02:08:04,980 --> 02:08:07,649 And that's part of the reason 3774 02:08:07,649 --> 02:08:10,319 that we had the installation and 3775 02:08:10,319 --> 02:08:13,319 commencement of office the day 3776 02:08:13,388 --> 02:08:15,388 after the election. 3777 02:08:18,527 --> 02:08:21,163 So it is, in fairness, that 3778 02:08:21,163 --> 02:08:23,432 mayor edelcup is asking to defer 3779 02:08:23,432 --> 02:08:24,666 the mayor's selection. 3780 02:08:24,666 --> 02:08:27,660 Constitute the charter revision 3781 02:08:27,136 --> 02:08:28,570 per the charter as I'm sure your 3782 02:08:28,570 --> 02:08:31,740 city attorney has told you to 3783 02:08:31,740 --> 02:08:34,740 do, but give consideration to 3784 02:08:35,677 --> 02:08:36,579 the unique circumstances in the 3785 02:08:36,579 --> 02:08:38,579 first instance. 3786 02:08:40,490 --> 02:08:42,651 And in the second instance, babe 3787 02:08:42,651 --> 02:08:43,985 with -- maybe with your charter 3788 02:08:43,985 --> 02:08:45,154 review committee address it and 3789 02:08:45,154 --> 02:08:46,288 potentially go back to the way 3790 02:08:46,288 --> 02:08:47,890 it was intended to be. 3791 02:08:47,890 --> 02:08:49,758 Thank you for your time. 3792 02:08:49,758 --> 02:08:50,559 >> if I MAY say, lynn -- 3793 02:08:50,559 --> 02:08:52,494 >> yes, sir. 3794 02:08:52,494 --> 02:08:55,364 >> that I think the election in 3795 02:08:55,364 --> 02:08:56,532 the city here is a reflection of 3796 02:08:56,532 --> 02:08:59,101 what's going on in the country. 3797 02:08:59,101 --> 02:09:02,271 I mean the election was only 20 3798 02:09:02,271 --> 02:09:02,571 votes, so you can't say -- 3799 02:09:02,571 --> 02:09:04,571 [Boos] 3800 02:09:07,810 --> 02:09:08,511 You can't say that it is the 3801 02:09:08,511 --> 02:09:09,845 majority. 3802 02:09:09,845 --> 02:09:11,814 >> with respect, commissioner, 3803 02:09:11,814 --> 02:09:13,749 I'm not addressing the politics 3804 02:09:13,749 --> 02:09:14,183 at all. 3805 02:09:14,183 --> 02:09:16,183 >> Mayor: listen. 3806 02:09:16,919 --> 02:09:17,653 >> I am really addressing the 3807 02:09:17,653 --> 02:09:20,530 structure of the document. 3808 02:09:29,724 --> 02:09:29,833 That's it. 3809 02:09:29,833 --> 02:09:30,243 >> Mayor: in my understanding, 3810 02:09:30,243 --> 02:09:30,319 there's a lot of frustration 3811 02:09:30,319 --> 02:09:30,398 because norman edelcup wanted to 3812 02:09:30,398 --> 02:09:30,479 be appointed to the charter 3813 02:09:30,479 --> 02:09:30,557 review commission.

02:09:34,903 have the law the way it is 3818 02:09:34,903 --> 02:09:35,872 today. 3819 02:09:35,872 --> 02:09:37,273 >> well, it wasn't -- 3820 02:09:37,273 --> 02:09:40,476 >> excuse me, I have never asked 3821 02:09:40,476 --> 02:09:41,444 to be appointed to the charter 3822 02:09:41,444 --> 02:09:41,877 commission. 3823 02:09:41,877 --> 02:09:43,877 >> Mayor: well -- 3824 02:09:44,180 --> 02:09:44,614 >> so please stop starting 3825 02:09:44,614 --> 02:09:45,281 rumors. 3826 02:09:45,281 --> 02:09:46,449 >> Mayor: that's what I heard. 3827 02:09:46,449 --> 02:09:47,283 >> the elections

--> 02:09:51,821 But let's just -- 3832 02:09:51,821 --> 02:09:53,323 >> I resent the fact that you 3833 02:09:53,323 --> 02:09:56,726 think I'm trying to get into the 3834 02:09:56,726 --> 02:09:57,126 charter commission. 3835 02:09:57,126 --> 02:09:57,727 >> Mayor: okay. 3836 02:09:57,727 --> 02:09:58,561 >> I don't intend to. 3837 02:09:58,561 --> 02:09:59,270 >> Mayor: for the record, that's 3838 02:09:59,270 --> 02:10:00,930 what I heard. 3839 02:10:00,930 --> 02:10:01,497 I didn't start the rumor, I just 3840 02:10:01,497 --> 02:10:02,398 heard it. 3841 02:10:02,398 --> 02:10:03,833 >> you could have asked me but 3842 02:10:03,833 --> 02:10:04,834 you decided to use it as a 3843 02:10:04,834 --> 02:10:06,702 broadcast right now. 3844 02:10:06,702 --> 02:10:08,702 >>

02:10:16,145 publicly. 3849 02:10:16,145 --> 02:10:17,380 So that came back to me that you 3850 02:10:17,380 --> 02:10:19,716 were frustrated because you 3851 02:10:19,716 --> 02:10:22,552 wanted to be appointed to the 3852 02:10:22,552 --> 02:10:24,552 charter review commission. 3853 02:10:34,619 --> 02:10:34,735 >> MADAM Mayor, if I MAY just 3854 02:10:34,735 --> 02:10:34,814 say one last thing. 3855 02:10:34,814 --> 02:10:34,893 One of the reasons the charter 3856 02:10:34,893 --> 02:10:34,970 was established was to place 3857 02:10:34,970 --> 02:10:35,470 principles above personalities, 3858 02:10:35,470 --> 02:10:35,126 so that it doesn't involve any 3859 02:10:35,126 --> 02:10:35,498 individual, but it really 3860 02:10:35,498 --> 02:10:38,340 relates to the good of the 3861 02:10:38,340 --> 02:10:39,501 government as a whole. 3862 02:10:39,501 --> 02:10:40,203 And commissioners change and 3863 02:10:40,203 --> 02:10:42,138 it's good. 3864 02:10:42,138 --> 02:10:44,474 It's part of democracy. 3865 02:10:44,474 --> 02:10:45,942 But this government should be 3866 02:10:45,942 --> 02:10:48,178 considered just as a document of 3867 02:10:48,178 --> 02:10:48,578 the people, not political. 3868 02:10:48,578 --> 02:10:49,412 Thank you. 3869 02:10:49,412 --> 02:10:50,460 Thank you so much. 3870 02:10:50,460 --> 02:10:50,480 >> Mayor: thank you. 3871

02:11:00,724 and my appointments to the 3875 02:11:00,724 --> 02:11:02,893 charter review commission can 3876 02:11:02,893 --> 02:11:05,127 stand on their own merit. 3877 02:11:05,127 --> 02:11:07,497
