physically and is visible, your 229 00:11:16,100 --> 00:11:17,100 neighbors and your friends, who 230 00:11:17,100 --> 00:11:19,100 ever you interact with, 231 00:11:19,100 --> 00:11:21,100 generally

00:11:27,100 --> 00:11:29,100 people are againly sympathetic. 236 00:11:29,100 --> 00:11:31,100 we for so long have hidden 237 00:11:31,100 --> 00:11:33,100 behind mental health challenges 238 00:11:33,100 --> 00:11:35,100 because of the stigma. 239 00:11:35,100 --> 00:11:37,100 often times those who want to 240 00:11:37,100 --> 00:11:38,100 help are not given an 241 00:11:38,100 --> 00:11:39,100 opportunity to help. 242 00:11:39,100 --> 00:11:42,100 I understand also if one has a 243 00:11:42,100 --> 00:11:44,100 condition that subjects them to 244 00:11:44,100 --> 00:11:46,100 stigma they may not want to 245 00:11:46,100 --> 00:11:47,100 disclose this. 246 00:11:47,100 --> 00:11:48,100 part of the raising of the 247 00:11:48,100 --> 00:11:51,601 awareness is to lift the stigma 248 00:11:52,100 --> 00:11:54,100 associated with it. 249 00:11:56,100 --> 00:11:58,401 doing proclamations like these 250 00:11:59,100 --> 00:12:00,100 and sending it out to the 251 00:12:00,100 --> 00:12:01,100 community is something we ought 252 00:12:01,100 --> 00:12:02,100 to do. 253 00:12:02,100 --> 00:12:03,100 I commend it. 254 00:12:03,100 --> 00:12:04,100 thank you,

--> 00:12:27,100 give me insight behind the 266 00:12:27,100 --> 00:12:28,100 scenes with the police 267 00:12:28,100 --> 00:12:29,100 department how they're handling 268 00:12:29,100 --> 00:12:31,100 the same crisis as well. 269 00:12:31,100 --> 00:12:33,100 >> chief rosa. 270 00:12:37,100 --> 00:12:39,100 >> thank you, commissioner. 271 00:12:40,100 --> 00:12:43,100 so, as far as mental health

00:12:49,100 how we interact with the public 276 00:12:49,100 --> 00:12:51,100 on a mental health crisis and 277 00:12:51,100 --> 00:12:53,100 how we handle ourselves if there 278 00:12:53,100 --> 00:12:55,100 is a issue with a police officer 279 00:12:55,100 --> 00:12:57,100 and a member. 280 00:12:58,100 --> 00:13:00,100 from an over all perspective 281 00:13:00,100 --> 00:13:02,401 crisis intervention train south 282 00:13:03,100 --> 00:13:04,100 backbone of everything we do in 283 00:13:04,100 --> 00:13:06,100 the police department. 284 00:13:06,100 --> 00:13:08,100 my goal is to get the entire 285 00:13:08,100 --> 00:13:10,100 department trained with formal 286 00:13:10,100 --> 00:13:12,100 crisis training. 287 00:13:12,100 --> 00:13:13,100 we're well on our way there. 288 00:13:13,100 --> 00:13:15,100 this is an on going effort by 289 00:13:15,100 --> 00:13:17,100 multiple police departments. 290 00:13:17,100 --> 00:13:19,100 we're successful in getting our 291 00:13:19,100 --> 00:13:21,100 people through the classes. 292 00:13:21,100 --> 00:13:22,100 then from there we are doing 293 00:13:22,100 --> 00:13:24,100 everything from inhouse 294 00:13:24,100 --> 00:13:25,100 training. 295 00:13:25,100 --> 00:13:26,100 what I mean by inhouse training 296 00:13:26,100 --> 00:13:29,601 is we discuss in small groups 297 00:13:30,100 --> 00:13:33,100 and scenarios on how to handle 298 00:13:33,100 --> 00:13:34,100 certain situations. 299 00:13:34,100 --> 00:13:36,100 what I mean by that is we have 300 00:13:36,100 --> 00:13:39,100 had a shift in how we handle 301 00:13:39,100 --> 00:13:40,100 calls. 302 00:13:40,100 --> 00:13:42,100 someone is in crisis, life 303 00:13:42,100 --> 00:13:43,100 threatening and something we may 304 00:13:43,100 --> 00:13:46,100 look at is endangering life one 305 00:13:46,100 --> 00:13:48,100 way or another to themselves or 306 00:13:48,100 --> 00:13:51,100 someone else we have shifted 307 00:13:51,100 --> 00:13:52,100 from years ago. 308 00:13:52,100 --> 00:13:54,100 police officers are problem 309 00:13:54,100 --> 00:13:55,100 selves. 310 00:13:55,100 --> 00:13:56,100 we want to get it done with and 311 00:13:56,100 --> 00:13:57,100 move onto the next thing. 312 00:13:57,100 --> 00:13:59,100 we have gonna way from that. 313 00:13:59,100 --> 00:14:01,100 now we're handling those where 314 00:14:01,100 --> 00:14:04,100 we're not forcing a intersection 315 00:14:04,100 --> 00:14:06,100 with anyone in a mental health 316 00:14:06,100 --> 00:14:08,100 crisis or having a mental health 317 00:14:08,100 --> 00:14:09,100 episode. 318 00:14:09,100 --> 00:14:11,100 I think we have realized. 319 00:14:11,100 --> 00:14:13,100 a lot is due to the training. 320 00:14:13,100 --> 00:14:16,100 we have realized we have time. 321 00:14:16,100 --> 00:14:18,100 we can handle it. 322 00:14:18,100 --> 00:14:19,100 we're doing things. 323 00:14:19,100 --> 00:14:20,100 we're talk ing about it. 324 00:14:20,100 --> 00:14:22,100 we're dehe is ka hating. 325 00:14:22,100 --> 00:14:25,100 we're approaching this not from 326 00:14:25,100 --> 00:14:27,100 an aggressive or imposing 327 00:14:27,100 --> 00:14:28,100 manner. 328 00:14:28,100 --> 00:14:31,100 a police officer shows up and 329 00:14:31,100 --> 00:14:33,100 you have a crisis, you're 330 00:14:33,100 --> 00:14:35,100 instantly creating a situation. 331 00:14:35,100 --> 00:14:37,100 in some cases it may appear to 332 00:14:37,100 --> 00:14:40,100 be aggressive to the person. 333 00:14:40,100 --> 00:14:42,100 we're intentionally not doing 334 00:14:42,100 --> 00:14:43,100 that. 335 00:14:43,100 --> 00:14:45,100 we're doing all we can to 336 00:14:45,100 --> 00:14:46,100 contain the situation. 337 00:14:46,100 --> 00:14:48,100 doing it in a manner that is con 338 00:14:48,100 --> 00:14:50,100 dousive to the situation. 339 00:14:50,100 --> 00:14:52,100 they we're taking to the people. 340 00:14:52,100 --> 00:14:54,100 I will give you ap example we 341 00:14:54,100 --> 00:14:57,100 had a person in a crisis with a 342 00:14:57,100 --> 00:14:58,100 firearm. 343 00:14:58,100 --> 00:14:59,100 after several hours it was 344 00:14:59,100 --> 00:15:01,100 resolved peacefully and we got 345 00:15:01,100 --> 00:15:03,100 the person the help they needed. 346 00:15:03,100 --> 00:15:05,100 has ben ral terms and this is 347 00:15:05,100 --> 00:15:06,100 more to it. 348 00:15:06,100 --> 00:15:08,100 what we're doing as an agency 349 00:15:08,100 --> 00:15:10,100 and respond to the crisises. 350 00:15:10,100 --> 00:15:12,100 from a I sternal perspective. 351 00:15:12,100 --> 00:15:14,100 this has been going on a little 352 00:15:14,100 --> 00:15:15,100 bit. 353 00:15:15,100 --> 00:15:16,100 a little slower of a evolution 354 00:15:16,100 --> 00:15:19,100 in policing and this work. 355 00:15:19,100 --> 00:15:22,100 there has been a reluck stands, 356 00:15:22,100 --> 00:15:25,100 historically, to act there is an 357 00:15:25,100 --> 00:15:26,100 issue. 358 00:15:26,100 --> 00:15:28,100 I think as we bring new officers 359 00:15:28,100 --> 00:15:30,100 on and new ideas on the culture 360 00:15:30,100 --> 00:15:31,100 is changing. 361 00:15:31,100 --> 00:15:34,601 so we have a program we're 362 00:15:36,100 --> 00:15:37,100 working on. 363 00:15:37,100 --> 00:15:39,100 we're starting out looking, 364 00:15:39,100 --> 00:15:42,100 we're doing a peer monitoring 365 00:15:42,100 --> 00:15:43,100 type thing. 366 00:15:43,100 --> 00:15:45,100 including supervisors watching 367 00:15:46,100 --> 00:15:47,100 for signs of other officers and 368 00:15:47,100 --> 00:15:49,100 employees in the police 369 00:15:49,100 --> 00:15:51,100 department under stress and 370 00:15:51,100 --> 00:15:54,100 getting people help the need. 371 00:15:54,100 --> 00:15:55,100 to take that a step further 372 00:15:55,100 --> 00:15:58,100 we're looking at creating a 373 00:15:58,100 --> 00:15:59,100 program where we're in the 374 00:15:59,100 --> 00:16:01,100 process now of identifying 375 00:16:01,100 --> 00:16:04,100 police officers that other other 376 00:16:04,100 --> 00:16:06,100 officers would be comfortable 377 00:16:06,100 --> 00:16:08,100 talking to and creating a peer 378 00:16:08,100 --> 00:16:09,100 support program. 379 00:16:09,100 --> 00:16:12,100 to do that we, we plan on 380 00:16:12,100 --> 00:16:14,100 identifying the officers and 381 00:16:14,100 --> 00:16:16,401 partnering with city mental 382 00:16:18,100 --> 00:16:20,100 health officials to structure 383 00:16:20,100 --> 00:16:22,100 this program. 384 00:16:22,100 --> 00:16:24,100 the officers will do something 385 00:16:24,100 --> 00:16:26,100 similar to what the fire 386 00:16:26,100 --> 00:16:29,100 department has with the critical 387 00:16:29,100 --> 00:16:31,100 incident debriefings and stuff 388 00:16:31,100 --> 00:16:32,100 like that. 389 00:16:32,100 --> 00:16:33,100 >> thank you. 390 00:16:33,100 --> 00:16:34,100 >> thank you. 391 00:16:34,100 --> 00:16:35,100 >> chief, if I may. 392 00:16:35,100 --> 00:16:37,100 >> commissioner scuotto. 393 00:16:38,100 -->

I'm sure it's not just 397 00:16:45,100 --> 00:16:47,100 sunrise but cities across the 398 00:16:47,100 --> 00:16:49,100 country. 399 00:16:49,100 --> 00:16:51,401 you mention, that's with 400 00:16:54,100 --> 00:16:56,100 anybody, when someone feels 401 00:16:56,100 --> 00:16:58,100 comfortable talking to someone 402 00:16:58,100 --> 00:17:00,100 else that's very important. 403 00:17:00,100 --> 00:17:02,100 a lot of times people feel they 404 00:17:02,100 --> 00:17:03,100 don't have someone to talk 405 00:17:03,100 --> 00:17:04,100 about. 406 00:17:04,100 --> 00:17:05,100 when you talk about something 407 00:17:05,100 --> 00:17:06,100 where the police officers are 408 00:17:06,100 --> 00:17:07,100 confronted by different things 409 00:17:07,100 --> 00:17:09,100 going on scene, whether it's 410 00:17:09,100 --> 00:17:12,100 something that has been affected 411 00:17:13,100 --> 00:17:16,100 them on multiple scenes over the 412 00:17:16,100 --> 00:17:18,100 years plus family issues they 413 00:17:18,100 --> 00:17:19,100 could have. 414 00:17:19,100 --> 00:17:21,100 some could be veterans or 415 00:17:21,100 --> 00:17:24,601 whatever they take to the job. 416 00:17:25,100 --> 00:17:27,100 I spoke to you about this 417 00:17:27,100 --> 00:17:29,100 probably a year or so ago. 418 00:17:29,100 --> 00:17:32,100 that was about having mental 419 00:17:32,100 --> 00:17:33,100 health people within the 420 00:17:33,100 --> 00:17:35,100 department. 421 00:17:35,100 --> 00:17:38,100 I'm not looking to add people 422 00:17:38,100 --> 00:17:40,100 but I'm saying when you just 423 00:17:40,100 --> 00:17:42,100 brought up that if an officer 424 00:17:42,100 --> 00:17:45,100 feels comfortable talking to a 425 00:17:45,100 --> 00:17:47,100 peer I don't want it to be that 426 00:17:47,100 --> 00:17:48,100 now these police officers are 427 00:17:48,100 --> 00:17:50,100 handling problems from other 428 00:17:50,100 --> 00:17:51,100 officers. 429 00:17:51,100 --> 00:17:53,100 which is good to get them 430 00:17:53,100 --> 00:17:54,100 through what they need to. 431 00:17:54,100 --> 00:17:57,100 but you don't want other 432 00:17:58,100 --> 00:18:00,100 employees now handling problems 433 00:18:00,100 --> 00:18:02,401 that they may even. 434 00:18:03,100 --> 00:18:04,100 have now they're taking on more. 435 00:18:04,100 --> 00:18:07,601 I mentioned

--> 01:50:37,100 there are a lot of angles to 2793 01:50:37,100 --> 01:50:38,100 take. 2794 01:50:38,100 --> 01:50:41,100 you know philosophically you can 2795 01:50:41,100 --> 01:50:42,100 come up with different 2796 01:50:42,100 --> 01:50:44,100 approaches. 2797 01:50:45,100 --> 01:50:46,100 here is the key. 2798 01:50:46,100 --> 01:50:49,100 what you're trying to do here, 2799 01:50:49,100 --> 01:50:50,100 you're trying to redevelop a 2800 01:50:50,100 --> 01:50:51,100 neighborhood. 2801 01:50:51,100 --> 01:50:53,100 you're trying to lift a 2802 01:50:53,100 --> 01:50:54,100 neighborhood up. 2803 01:50:54,100 --> 01:50:55,100 one of the ways you can lift a 2804 01:50:55,100 --> 01:50:57,100 neighborhood up. 2805 01:50:57,100 --> 01:51:00,100 say there was no vacant piece of 2806 01:51:00,100 --> 01:51:01,100 property like this. 2807 01:51:01,100 --> 01:51:03,100 you can really inject excitement 2808 01:51:03,100 --> 01:51:06,100 and energy some, you know some 2809 01:51:06,100 --> 01:51:07,100 vision into what the 2810 01:51:07,100 --> 01:51:09,401 neighborhood could become you 2811 01:51:11,100 --> 01:51:12,100 instead. 2812 01:51:12,100 --> 01:51:14,100 there was no vacant pieces of 2813 01:51:14,100 --> 01:51:15,100 land. 2814 01:51:15,100 --> 01:51:17,100 you are relying on one person 2815 01:51:17,100 --> 01:51:19,100 here and one person here. 2816 01:51:19,100 --> 01:51:21,100 one person somewhere else. 2817 01:51:21,100 --> 01:51:23,100 slowly, slowly, slowly overtime 2818 01:51:23,100 --> 01:51:25,100 the whole neighborhood lifts up 2819 01:51:25,100 --> 01:51:26,100 this. 2820 01:51:26,100 --> 01:51:27,100 is different okay. 2821 01:51:27,100 --> 01:51:29,100 you have the chance to put 2 2822 01:51:29,100 --> 01:51:30,100 brand new homes here. 2823 01:51:30,100 --> 01:51:32,100 what that will do is it's going 2824 01:51:32,100 --> 01:51:35,100 to then, yes, that is an 2825 01:51:35,100 --> 01:51:36,100 investment. 2826 01:51:36,100 --> 01:51:37,100 to me, you pick whatever price 2827 01:51:37,100 --> 01:51:39,100 you want to sell it for and see 2828 01:51:39,100 --> 01:51:41,100 if you get someone to buy it at 2829 01:51:41,100 --> 01:51:43,100 the end of the day is to get 2830 01:51:43,100 --> 01:51:45,100 east sunrise moving. 2831 01:51:46,100 --> 01:51:47,100 >> todd: see new construction, 2832 01:51:47,100 --> 01:51:49,401 new investment is possible. 2833 01:51:50,100 --> 01:51:52,100 in this neighborhood. 2834 01:51:52,100 --> 01:51:54,100 you see people fixing up their 2835 01:51:54,100 --> 01:51:56,100 homes all of a sudden. 2836 01:51:56,100 --> 01:51:58,100 it happens time after time after 2837 01:51:58,100 --> 01:51:59,100 time this. 2838 01:51:59,100 --> 01:52:00,100 is not a cra. 2839 01:52:00,100 --> 01:52:02,100 it's not a created redevelopment 2840 01:52:02,100 --> 01:52:03,100 area. 2841 01:52:03,100 --> 01:52:05,100 in essence that's the sprat gee 2842 01:52:05,100 --> 01:52:06,100 you're employing here. 2843 01:52:06,100 --> 01:52:08,100 you're trying to take a 2844 01:52:08,100 --> 01:52:10,401 neighborhood that hasn't grown 2845 01:52:12,100 --> 01:52:14,100 in investment and value as much 2846 01:52:14,100 --> 01:52:17,100 as other neighborhoods in the 2847 01:52:17,100 --> 01:52:18,100 city has. 2848 01:52:18,100 --> 01:52:19,100 you're trying to inject 2849 01:52:19,100 --> 01:52:21,100 investment moot neighborhood to 2850 01:52:21,100 --> 01:52:22,100 make it happen. 2851 01:52:22,100 --> 01:52:24,100 make it happen sooner than it 2852 01:52:24,100 --> 01:52:26,100 otherwise would of if it was 2853 01:52:26,100 --> 01:52:29,100 done in a piece mail basis. 2854 01:52:29,100 --> 01:52:32,100 that's the urban planning theory 2855 01:52:32,100 --> 01:52:34,100 and the redevelopment theory 2856 01:52:34,100 --> 01:52:35,100 behind what you're doing. 2857 01:52:35,100 --> 01:52:38,100 I think it's a sound thaoer.y 2858 01:52:38,100 --> 01:52:40,100 you can get hung up on the sp*s 2859 01:52:40,100 --> 01:52:41,100 specs of the numbers. 2860 01:52:41,100 --> 01:52:43,100 I think the staff and us were 2861 01:52:43,100 --> 01:52:45,100 working towards a solution that, 2862 01:52:45,100 --> 01:52:48,601 that we didn't sell houses for 2863 01:52:49,100 --> 01:52:50,100 six hundred thousand dollars. 2864 01:52:50,100 --> 01:52:52,100 I don't know if I can could sell 2865 01:52:52,100 --> 01:52:53,100 them now. 2866 01:52:53,100 --> 01:52:54,100 some day you could. 2867 01:52:54,100 --> 01:52:56,100 I think, I haven't heard anyone 2868 01:52:56,100 --> 01:52:57,100 say they don't liking our plan 2869 01:52:57,100 --> 01:52:59,100 or concept. 2870 01:52:59,100 --> 01:53:00,100 everyone seems to like it it's 2871

--> 02:14:07,601 a water and waste water system. 3476 02:14:13,100 --> 02:14:14,100 it's not like you're buying just 3477 02:14:14,100 --> 02:14:17,100 a car and you get to drive it. 3478 02:14:17,100 --> 02:14:20,100 this is a system we're buying 3479 02:14:20,100 --> 02:14:21,100 and maintaining it for the rest 3480 02:14:21,100 --> 02:14:23,100 of our lives. 3481 02:14:25,100 --> 02:14:28,100 seems like the city of davie 3482 02:14:28,100 --> 02:14:31,100 months ago already had their 3483 02:14:31,100 --> 02:14:33,100 mootings with their mayor and 3484 02:14:33,100 --> 02:14:36,601 five missioners all filled out a 3485 02:14:37,100 --> 02:14:40,100 card whether they want to 3486 02:14:40,100 --> 02:14:43,100 rebuild their systems, how many 3487 02:14:43,100 --> 02:14:45,100 years it would take to build the 3488 02:14:45,100 --> 02:14:47,100 system or just go ahead and let 3489 02:14:47,100 --> 02:14:50,100 sunrise take over the system. 3490 02:14:50,100 --> 02:14:53,601 in that reading it was 5-0. 3491 02:14:54,100 --> 02:14:56,100 5-0. 3492 02:14:56,100 --> 02:14:57,100 let sunrise take over the 3493 02:14:57,100 --> 02:14:58,100 system. 3494 02:14:58,100 --> 02:15:02,100 so now davie is doing a study 3495 02:15:02,100 --> 02:15:04,100 like we are. 3496 02:15:05,100 --> 02:15:06,100 their study is totally 3497 02:15:06,100 --> 02:15:07,100 different. 3498 02:15:07,100 --> 02:15:11,100 their study is how much is our 3499 02:15:11,100 --> 02:15:13,100 stuff worth. 3500 02:15:13,100 --> 02:15:14,100 literally nothing. 3501 02:15:14,100 --> 02:15:15,100 I'm sorry. 3502 02:15:15,100 --> 02:15:17,100 that's the whole study. 3503 02:15:17,100 --> 02:15:19,100 how much can we get from 3504 02:15:19,100 --> 02:15:20,100 sunrise. 3505 02:15:20,100 --> 02:15:23,100 our study is the total opposite. 3506 02:15:23,100 --> 02:15:25,100 we have to go through the whole 3507 02:15:25,100 --> 02:15:28,100 system and figure out how much 3508 02:15:28,100 --> 02:15:29,100 it will cost. 3509 02:15:29,100 --> 02:15:32,100 obviously davie didn't do it. 3510 02:15:32,100 --> 02:15:34,100 because they figured how much it 3511 02:15:34,100 --> 02:15:36,100 will cost to redo the entire 3512 02:15:36,100 --> 02:15:40,201 system - the cost of fixing the 3513 02:15:56,100 --> 02:15:57,100 infrastructure if it's 3514 02:15:57,100 --> 02:15:59,100 deteriorated or not. 3515 02:15:59,100 --> 02:16:03,201 so, I mean it's just -- the 3516 02:16:05,100 --> 02:16:07,100 first time being up here to 3517 02:16:07,100 --> 02:16:09,401 negotiate something like this 3518 02:16:13,100 --> 02:16:14,100 where you're buying something 3519 02:16:14,100 --> 02:16:15,100 from another city. 3520 02:16:15,100 --> 02:16:18,100 agreeing they don't want it 3521 02:16:29,100 --> 02:16:30,100 anymore. 3522 02:16:30,100 --> 02:16:32,100 whether it's bad planning, bad 3523 02:16:32,100 --> 02:16:34,100 rebuilding, rehabbing. 3524 02:16:34,100 --> 02:16:37,100 so, I jut want to make sure that 3525 02:16:37,100 --> 02:16:40,601 you know hayes and swayer doing 3526 02:16:43,100 --> 02:16:44,100 the study for us. 3527 02:16:44,100 --> 02:16:46,100 they know our system. 3528 02:16:46,100 --> 02:16:48,100 I want to make sure this is the 3529 02:16:48,100 --> 02:16:50,100 money that we're paying 3530 02:16:50,100 --> 02:16:52,100 substantial amount of money to 3531 02:16:52,100 --> 02:16:54,100 do this study that it's the 3532 02:16:54,100 --> 02:16:56,100 study of a lifetime that we want 3533 02:16:56,100 --> 02:16:59,100 to make sure we get all and most 3534 02:16:59,100 --> 02:17:01,401 and correct information because 3535 02:17:05,100 --> 02:17:06,100 buying a system like this. 3536 02:17:06,100 --> 02:17:08,100 we know when we approve water 3537 02:17:08,100 --> 02:17:11,601 and waste water projects in our 3538 02:17:12,100 --> 02:17:14,100 own city it's not like a 3539 02:17:14,100 --> 02:17:16,100 50,000-dollar project. 3540 02:17:16,100 --> 02:17:18,100 it's continue million, eight 3541 02:17:18,100 --> 02:17:20,100 million, seven million. 3542 02:17:20,100 --> 02:17:23,100 we have 10% of davy right now. 3543 02:17:23,100 --> 02:17:25,401 right now we provide 10%. 3544 02:17:31,100 --> 02:17:33,100 we would bye the 40% left. 3545 02:17:33,100 --> 02:17:35,100 I want to make sure when you buy 3546 02:17:35,100 --> 02:17:38,100 something first dibs usually you 3547 02:17:39,100 --> 02:17:42,100 buy the first 60 because it was 3548 02:17:42,100 --> 02:17:43,100 good. 3549 02:17:43,100 --> 02:17:44,100 I want to make sure we're 3550 02:17:44,100 --> 02:17:46,100 spending the money the right 3551 02:17:46,100 --> 02:17:47,100 way. 3552 02:17:47,100 --> 02:17:48,100 I don't want to buy 40% of 3553 02:17:48,100 --> 02:17:50,401 something something on going. 3554 02:17:56,100 --> 02:17:59,100 yes we have to pit money in, yes 3555 02:17:59,100 --> 02:18:00,100 we have to tie it into our 3556 02:18:00,100 --> 02:18:01,100 system. 3557 02:18:01,100 --> 02:18:03,100 maybe there are ways to shut 3558 02:18:03,100 --> 02:18:05,100 down part of our system. 3559 02:18:05,100 --> 02:18:07,100 our system can handle it. 3560 02:18:07,100 --> 02:18:10,601 I'm just saying to hays and 3561 02:18:12,100 --> 02:18:16,100 swayer do not put us in a bad 3562 02:18:16,100 --> 02:18:18,100 situation. 3563 02:18:25,100 --> 02:18:28,601 >> we have faith in hayes and 3564 02:18:33,100 --> 02:18:36,100 swayer I have to put my faith in 3565 02:18:36,100 --> 02:18:39,601 mr.

please everybody be 3569 02:18:51,100 --> 02:18:53,100 watching for this. 3570 02:18:53,100 --> 02:18:55,100 this is something major that 3571 02:18:55,100 --> 02:18:57,100 we're going to take over. 3572 02:18:57,100 --> 02:19:00,100 I definitely do not want 3573 02:19:01,100 --> 02:19:02,100 something in the tens of 3574 02:19:02,100 --> 02:19:05,100 millions of dollars to bite us 3575 02:19:05,100 --> 02:19:06,100 later on. 3576 02:19:06,100 --> 02:19:08,100 I wanted to put that out there. 3577 02:19:08,100 --> 02:19:09,100 thank you. 3578 02:19:09,100 --> 02:19:10,100 >> commissioner douglas. 3579 02:19:10,100 --> 02:19:12,401 >> obviously I share my 3580 02:19:14,100 --> 02:19:16,401 colleagues concerns and have 3581 02:19:19,100 --> 02:19:21,100 discuss it did with the city 3582 02:19:21,100 --> 02:19:22,100 manager. 3583 02:19:22,100 --> 02:19:24,100 I imagine our consultants 3584 02:19:24,100 --> 02:19:27,100 without being told would shoot 3585 02:19:28,100 --> 02:19:29,100 straight with us. 3586 02:19:29,100 --> 02:19:30,100 I want to say it would be a 3587 02:19:30,100 --> 02:19:32,100 concern for all of us. 3588 02:19:32,100 --> 02:19:35,100 sunrise is a major regional 3589 02:19:37,100 --> 02:19:39,401 water utility because some 3590 02:19:40,100 --> 02:19:42,100 people who have sat here before 3591 02:19:42,100 --> 02:19:45,601 us made bold decisions about I 3592 02:19:51,100 --> 02:19:53,100 object vesting in a utility 3593 02:19:53,100 --> 02:19:54,100 system. 3594 02:19:54,100 --> 02:19:55,100 some don't have their on water. 3595 02:19:55,100 --> 02:19:57,100 westop and others buying from 3596 02:19:57,100 --> 02:19:58,100 us. 3597 02:19:58,100 --> 02:19:59,100 we have enough for our sells and 3598 02:19:59,100 --> 02:20:01,100 we sell to others. 3599 02:20:01,100 --> 02:20:04,100 that was a bold move. 3600 02:20:07,100 --> 02:20:10,601 we have a perming of funding. 3601 02:20:11,100 --> 02:20:13,401 operating budget each year. 3602 02:20:14,100 --> 02:20:15,100 which obviously if you have 3603 02:20:15,100 --> 02:20:18,601 fixed costs and fixed or certain 3604 02:20:24,100 --> 02:20:27,100 revenues coming in, a enterprise 3605 02:20:28,100 --> 02:20:29,100 system. 3606 02:20:29,100 --> 02:20:32,100 it reduced the need to tax 3607 02:20:32,100 --> 02:20:34,100 residents more to get the amount 3608 02:20:34,100 --> 02:20:36,100 of dollars you need to run the 3609 02:20:36,100 --> 02:20:37,100 budget. 3610 02:20:37,100 --> 02:20:40,100 so, I certainly would want to be 3611 02:20:40,100 --> 02:20:42,100 on the bold side in pursuing 3612 02:20:42,100 --> 02:20:43,100 this. 3613 02:20:43,100 --> 02:20:44,100 obviously I wouldn't move 3614 02:20:44,100 --> 02:20:47,100 forward if the numbers don't 3615 02:20:48,100 --> 02:20:49,100 make sense. 3616 02:20:49,100 --> 02:20:52,100 I want the numbers to come back 3617 02:20:52,100 --> 02:20:55,100 in a way that even the babys can 3618 02:20:55,100 --> 02:20:58,100 see it makes as soon as. 3619 02:20:58,100 --> 02:20:59,100 it ought not to be something 3620 02:20:59,100 --> 02:21:02,601 that we need to be technical, 3621 02:21:05,100 --> 02:21:08,100 have technical skills to figure 3622 02:21:08,100 --> 02:21:09,100 it out. 3623 02:21:09,100 --> 02:21:13,100 he who pays the piper plays the 3624 02:21:13,100 --> 02:21:14,100 tune. 3625 02:21:14,100 --> 02:21:16,100 I do know there are opportunity 3626 02:21:16,100 --> 02:21:18,100 costs associated with taking one 3627 02:21:18,100 --> 02:21:20,100 decision versus another. 3628 02:21:21,100 --> 02:21:24,100 I expect that economies of scale 3629 02:21:24,100 --> 02:21:27,100 may of played a roll in how 3630 02:21:27,100 --> 02:21:29,100 davie made a decision. 3631 02:21:29,100 --> 02:21:32,100 if you have something as 3632 02:21:34,100 --> 02:21:37,100 significant as a water utility, 3633 02:21:37,100 --> 02:21:39,100 significant infrastructure 3634 02:21:39,100 --> 02:21:41,100 required without the 3635 02:21:41,100 --> 02:21:42,100 opportunities to grow it doesn't 3636 02:21:42,100 --> 02:21:44,100 make s-ps to make the further 3637 02:21:44,100 --> 02:21:46,100 invest hadn't. 3638 02:21:46,100 --> 02:21:48,100 I presume given we have the 3639 02:21:48,100 --> 02:21:50,100 scale already that we could 3640 02:21:50,100 --> 02:21:53,100 achieve some economies of that 3641 02:21:53,100 --> 02:21:54,100 scale. 3642 02:21:54,100 --> 02:21:56,100 if we were to buy them. 3643 02:21:56,100 --> 02:21:59,100 where we co-op rate at a lower 3644 02:21:59,100 --> 02:22:00,100 cost and they could based on 3645 02:22:00,100 --> 02:22:02,100 tieing what we already have. 3646 02:22:02,100 --> 02:22:05,601 of course there is the unlocking 3647 02:22:12,100 --> 02:22:13,100 of selling for x. 3648 02:22:13,100 --> 02:22:15,100 a lot of value to unlock if do 3649 02:22:15,100 --> 02:22:16,100 you it the right way. 3650 02:22:16,100 --> 02:22:19,100 I'm quite prepared to ex lore 3651 02:22:19,100 --> 02:22:22,100 this and hopefully beyond the 3652 02:22:23,100 --> 02:22:25,100 right side of history when 3653 02:22:25,100 --> 02:22:28,100 someone talks about whether it 3654 02:22:28,100 --> 02:22:31,100 was the right thing to do to 3655 02:22:31,100 --> 02:22:32,100 prefer sue this opportunity. 3656 02:22:32,100 --> 02:22:36,100 so, I am prepared to support at 3657 02:22:36,100 --> 02:22:38,401 least this initial phase. 3658 02:22:39,100 --> 02:22:41,100 >> assistant deputy mayor. 3659 02:22:43,100 --> 02:22:45,100 >> yes, thank you. 3660 02:22:46,100 --> 02:22:48,100 I'm conflicted on this. 3661 02:22:48,100 --> 02:22:50,100 a gree with you both. 3662 02:22:50,100 --> 02:22:52,100 think it's a good opportunity. 3663 02:22:52,100 --> 02:22:54,100 I feel it's a lot of money for 3664 02:22:54,100 --> 02:22:55,100 phase one. 3665 02:22:55,100 --> 02:22:56,100 we don't know what phase two 3666 02:22:56,100 --> 02:22:59,100 looks like if we move forward. 3667 02:22:59,100 --> 02:23:02,100 also feel like we have our own 3668 02:23:02,100 --> 02:23:04,100 inhouse things that are needd in 3669 02:23:04,100 --> 02:23:05,100 that department. 3670 02:23:05,100 --> 02:23:07,100 where I feel we need to take 3671 02:23:07,100 --> 02:23:09,100 care of our own people first 3672 02:23:09,100 --> 02:23:10,100 before we fix outside. 3673 02:23:10,100 --> 02:23:12,100 I know that there are a number 3674 02:23:12,100 --> 02:23:14,100 of things that need to be 3675 02:23:14,100 --> 02:23:17,100 upgraded or things expected or 3676 02:23:17,100 --> 02:23:19,100 we need to get in our own city. 3677 02:23:19,100 --> 02:23:22,100 I feel like before we invest on 3678 02:23:22,100 --> 02:23:24,100 all, if we should be able to 3679 02:23:24,100 --> 02:23:25,100 look at ours first. 3680 02:23:25,100 --> 02:23:27,100 >> if that makes sense to you. 3681 02:23:27,100 --> 02:23:30,100 so, that's where I feel on that 3682 02:23:30,100 --> 02:23:32,100 particular situation. 3683 02:23:32,100 --> 02:23:34,100 do you have an idea what phase 3684 02:23:34,100 --> 02:23:35,100 two looks like. 3685 02:23:35,100 --> 02:23:38,100 or is that out of the question 3686 02:23:38,100 --> 02:23:39,100 right now? 3687 02:23:39,100 --> 02:23:42,100 >> the phase two costs, we have 3688 02:23:42,100 --> 02:23:44,100 not identified the phase two 3689 02:23:44,100 --> 02:23:48,100 costs on it I believe that the 3690 02:23:48,100 --> 02:23:50,100 consulting engineering component 3691 02:23:51,100 --> 02:23:54,100 the majority is phase one moving 3692 02:23:54,100 --> 02:23:55,100 forward. 3693 02:23:55,100 --> 02:23:57,100 I don't expect there to be a 3694 02:23:57,100 --> 02:23:58,100 significant cost from the 3695 02:23:58,100 --> 02:24:00,100 consulting engineer. 3696 02:24:01,100 --> 02:24:03,100 there be other cots in phase two 3697 02:24:03,100 --> 02:24:04,100 if we move forward with 3698 02:24:04,100 --> 02:24:05,100 acquisition. 3699 02:24:05,100 --> 02:24:07,401 that is consultants, financial 3700 02:24:09,100 --> 02:24:11,100 and bond consultants. 3701 02:24:11,100 --> 02:24:13,100 there will be probably limited 3702 02:24:13,100 --> 02:24:16,100 amounts from hayes and swayer 3703 02:24:20,100 --> 02:24:21,100 phase two. 3704 02:24:21,100 --> 02:24:24,100 a large part of the heavy 3705 02:24:24,100 --> 02:24:26,100 lifting is phase one analysis of 3706 02:24:26,100 --> 02:24:27,100 this. 3707 02:24:27,100 --> 02:24:29,100 we need to do that true analysis 3708 02:24:29,100 --> 02:24:31,401 to make educated recommendations 3709 02:24:32,100 --> 02:24:33,100 to the commission whether to 3710 02:24:33,100 --> 02:24:35,100

perspective. 4973 03:15:10,100 --> 03:15:12,100 running lines, being passionate. 4974 03:15:12,100 --> 03:15:14,100 most know their children won't 4975 03:15:14,100 --> 03:15:16,100 be super stars.

understand that passion will 4983 03:15:33,100 --> 03:15:36,601 come with it I certainly think 4984 03:15:37,100 --> 03:15:39,100 though if we were to make it 4985 03:15:39,100 --> 03:15:42,100 mandatory, take training and so 4986 03:15:42,100 --> 03:15:45,100 on you won't necessarily -- 4987 03:15:45,100 --> 03:15:47,401 >> they go through the 4988 03:15:49,100 --> 03:15:51,100 background

specifically with tackle this 4996 03:16:02,100 --> 03:16:03,100 were challenges with the 4997 03:16:03,100 --> 03:16:04,100 leadership and the parents 4998 03:16:04,100 --> 03:16:06,100 didn't want to participate. 4999 03:16:06,100 --> 03:16:08,100 it fell apart. 5000 03:16:09,100 --> 03:16:12,100 thank god it was salvaged. 5001 03:16:12,100 --> 03:16:14,100 I know you're passionate and 5002

think we want to keep it 5009 03:16:31,100 --> 03:16:33,100 amateur and not force 5010 03:16:33,100 --> 03:16:35,100 requirements because you have a 5011 03:16:35,100 --> 03:16:37,100 lot of people that just have to 5012 03:16:37,100 --> 03:16:38,100 chip in. 5013 03:16:38,100 --> 03:16:40,401 like I was there. 5014 03:16:42,100 --> 03:16:44,100 I could of been considered a 5015 03:16:44,100 --> 03:16:45,100 coach at that point. 5016 03:16:45,100 --> 03:16:46,100 there weren't enough people to 5017 03:16:46,100 --> 03:16:47,100 run the lines. 5018 03:16:47,100 --> 03:16:48,100 I ran the lines. 5019 03:16:48,100 --> 03:16:51,100 if we have that as a requirement 5020 03:16:51,100 --> 03:16:55,100 then you know you would see a 5021 03:16:55,100 --> 03:16:56,100 challenge. 5022 03:16:56,100 --> 03:16:57,100 >> mayor ryan. 5023 03:16:57,100 --> 03:16:58,100 >> yes, thank you. 5024 03:16:58,100 --> 03:17:01,100 first of all thank you for 5025 03:17:01,100 --> 03:17:02,100 raising this. 5026 03:17:02,100 --> 03:17:03,100 I think it's always good for us 5027 03:17:03,100 --> 03:17:06,100 to reexamine our programs and 5028 03:17:08,100 --> 03:17:10,100 what is going on. 5029 03:17:10,100 --> 03:17:11,100 you have been out on the fields 5030 03:17:11,100 --> 03:17:12,100 this. 5031 03:17:12,100 --> 03:17:13,100 is what you see. 5032 03:17:13,100 --> 03:17:14,100 there it's real. 5033 03:17:14,100 --> 03:17:16,100 your feelings are rational. 5034 03:17:16,100 --> 03:17:19,100 I think it is an issue that from 5035 03:17:19,100 --> 03:17:22,100 time to time we have to revisit. 5036 03:17:22,100 --> 03:17:25,601 as was said I did soccer, 5037 03:17:26,100 --> 03:17:29,100 baseball, I have coached flag 5038 03:17:29,100 --> 03:17:30,100 football. 5039 03:17:30,100 --> 03:17:32,100 each have different 5040 03:17:32,100 --> 03:17:33,100 characteristics. 5041 03:17:33,100 --> 03:17:34,100 the coaches are different for a 5042 03:17:34,100 --> 03:17:36,100 variety of reasons. 5043 03:17:36,100 --> 03:17:38,100 I also think the parents are 5044 03:17:38,100 --> 03:17:40,100 different in each of those for a 5045 03:17:40,100 --> 03:17:41,100 variety of reasons. 5046 03:17:41,100 --> 03:17:44,100 it can be difficult to coach 5047 03:17:44,100 --> 03:17:46,100 baseball because the parents are 5048 03:17:46,100 --> 03:17:47,100 so close. 5049 03:17:47,100 --> 03:17:48,100 of course after a couple of 5050 03:17:48,100 --> 03:17:49,100 seasons as mentioned I think 5051 03:17:49,100 --> 03:17:51,100 every parent and every coach 5052 03:17:51,100 --> 03:17:53,100 thinks they can coach the 5053 03:17:53,100 --> 03:17:54,100 yankees or mets. 5054 03:17:54,100 --> 03:17:56,100 they know how to navigate all of 5055 03:17:56,100 --> 03:17:58,401 the complexities of it. 5056 03:17:59,100 --> 03:18:01,100 all that had said. 5057 03:18:01,100 --> 03:18:03,100 it's clear the commission 5058 03:18:03,100 --> 03:18:05,100 appreciates as does staff the 5059 03:18:05,100 --> 03:18:07,401 commitment of the volunteering. 5060 03:18:10,100 --> 03:18:12,100 they love the sport, they love 5061 03:18:12,100 --> 03:18:13,100 working with children. 5062 03:18:13,100 --> 03:18:17,100 that being said I don't think as 5063 03:18:17,100 --> 03:18:20,100 has been suggested, and kevin 5064 03:18:21,100 --> 03:18:24,100 would appreciate this I don't 5065 03:18:39,100 --> 03:18:42,100 think it would do much. 5066 03:18:47,100 --> 03:18:49,100 -- we have had to deal with 5067 03:18:49,100 --> 03:18:52,100 coaches more animated and maybe 5068

03:29:18,100 it's a good understanding for 5330 03:29:18,100 --> 03:29:20,100 ups and downs. 5331 03:29:20,100 --> 03:29:22,100 that's the type of city manager, 5332 03:29:22,100 --> 03:29:24,100 some previous city managers 5333 03:29:24,100 --> 03:29:25,100 didn't have that. 5334 03:29:25,100 --> 03:29:29,100 you know it was like in one ear 5335 03:29:29,100 --> 03:29:30,100 and out the other. 5336 03:29:30,100 --> 03:29:33,100 some are more knowledgeable than 5337 03:29:33,100 --> 03:29:34,100 others. 5338 03:29:34,100 --> 03:29:36,100 some went on their own beaten 5339 03:29:36,100 --> 03:29:37,100 path. 5340 03:29:37,100 --> 03:29:41,801 I think you as a person, I think 5341 03:29:44,100 --> 03:29:47,100 you're a responsible person and 5342 03:29:47,100 --> 03:29:48,100 dedicated

03:36:00,100 --> 03:36:02,100 was really a regional thing 5487 03:36:02,100 --> 03:36:04,401 because many from surrounding 5488 03:36:09,100 --> 03:36:10,100 communities ben knitted. 5489 03:36:10,100 --> 03:36:12,100 I think we were a leader in how 5490 03:36:12,100 --> 03:36:13,100 we made it happen. 5491 03:36:13,100 --> 03:36:16,100 how we road it out. 5492 03:36:16,100 --> 03:36:18,100 we sustained it longer than most 5493 03:36:18,100 --> 03:36:20,100 other communities. 5494 03:36:22,100 --> 03:36:25,100 whether you pitched staff to one 5495 03:36:25,100 --> 03:36:28,100 area or the next you were able 5496 03:36:28,100 --> 03:36:31,100 to get your staff to be flexible 5497 03:36:31,100 --> 03:36:33,100 in that regard. 5498 03:36:33,100 --> 03:36:35,401 the drive-thru christmas stuff. 5499 03:36:39,100 --> 03:36:42,601 the fact is whatever people had 5500 03:36:46,100 --> 03:36:48,100 got not use to we brought an 5501 03:36:48,100 --> 03:36:51,100 alternative that was as close as 5502 03:36:51,100 --> 03:36:53,401 we could get to. 5503 03:36:59,100 --> 03:37:02,100 -- you get the credit. 5504 03:37:05,100 --> 03:37:08,601 transparency is a hell of a 5505 03:37:12,100 --> 03:37:13,100 thing. 5506 03:37:13,100 --> 03:37:14,100 if you don't know you don't 5507 03:37:14,100 --> 03:37:15,100 know. 5508 03:37:15,100 --> 03:37:17,100 if you don't tell me something. 5509 03:37:17,100 --> 03:37:20,100 a challenge I had with your 5510 03:37:20,100 --> 03:37:23,601 predecessor, I don't know -- was 5511 03:37:24,100 --> 03:37:26,100 I feel like I had to know the 5512 03:37:26,100 --> 03:37:28,100 right questions to ask. 5513 03:37:28,100 --> 03:37:30,100 it was like, it was like almost 5514 03:37:30,100 --> 03:37:32,100 like pulling teeth. 5515 03:37:32,100 --> 03:37:35,100 then when you know obviously you 5516 03:37:35,100 --> 03:37:37,100 guys are trained not to lie if 5517 03:37:37,100 --> 03:37:39,100 you're asked a direct question. 5518 03:37:39,100 --> 03:37:42,100 you know after quite a few 5519 03:37:42,100 --> 03:37:44,100 direct questions why the hell 5520 03:37:44,100 --> 03:37:46,100 didn't you tell me this before. 5521 03:37:46,100 --> 03:37:48,100 why did I have to needle into 5522 03:37:48,100 --> 03:37:50,100 you to get it out. 5523 03:37:50,100 --> 03:37:53,601 I won't say it hasn't happened 5524 03:37:56,100 --> 03:37:57,100 here. 5525 03:37:57,100 --> 03:37:59,100 would I chalk it up to a good 5526 03:37:59,100 --> 03:38:00,100 faith, I don't think you wanted 5527 03:38:00,100 --> 03:38:03,100 to know or I miss it thed. 5528 03:38:03,100 --> 03:38:05,100 whether you have been, it's hard 5529 03:38:05,100 --> 03:38:08,100 to tell in the structure that we 5530 03:38:08,100 --> 03:38:11,100 have with sunshine whether you 5531 03:38:11,100 --> 03:38:14,601 have told neil one thing and 5532 03:38:17,100 --> 03:38:19,100 told me something else or pitch 5533 03:38:19,100 --> 03:38:21,100 it differently to joey or what 5534 03:38:21,100 --> 03:38:22,100 not. 5535 03:38:22,100 --> 03:38:23,100 you know it's a commitment that 5536 03:38:23,100 --> 03:38:26,100 you have made and we expect you 5537 03:38:26,100 --> 03:38:28,401 to build on it 5538 03:38:31,100 --> 03:38:34,100 so, I can't, I have a pretty 5539 03:38:34,100 --> 03:38:36,100 good level of communication with 5540 03:38:36,100 --> 03:38:37,100 you. 5541 03:38:37,100 --> 03:38:40,601 I also know how to ask 5542 03:38:47,100 --> 03:38:48,100 questions. 5543 03:38:48,100 --> 03:38:51,100 we speak frankly on issues that 5544 03:38:51,100 --> 03:38:53,100 are a concern to me, initiatives 5545 03:38:53,100 --> 03:38:56,601 that were of importance to me, 5546 03:38:57,100 --> 03:39:00,100 we have been able to talk freely 5547 03:39:00,100 --> 03:39:01,100 about them. 5548 03:39:01,100 --> 03:39:04,601 you have been responsive to me 5549 03:39:05,100 --> 03:39:07,100 as one of your bosses. 5550 03:39:07,100 --> 03:39:10,100 so, from that perspective I 5551 03:39:16,100 --> 03:39:18,401 would say mostly satisfied. 5552 03:39:19,100 --> 03:39:22,601 on the employee side of things 5553 03:39:23,100 --> 03:39:25,401 in terms of initiatives 5554 03:39:26,100 --> 03:39:29,100 especially based on how it's 5555 03:39:29,100 --> 03:39:31,100 outlined here I have to commend 5556 03:39:31,100 --> 03:39:33,100 you. 5557 03:39:33,100 --> 03:39:35,100 everybody knows about my 5558 03:39:35,100 --> 03:39:37,100 challenges with performance 5559 03:39:39,100 --> 03:39:41,401 appraisals in the past. 5560 03:39:42,100 --> 03:39:46,100 I see here you have spoken to 5561 03:39:46,100 --> 03:39:48,100 performance evaluation training 5562 03:39:48,100 --> 03:39:50,100 for supervisors. 5563 03:39:50,100 --> 03:39:53,100 one of the comments or 5564 03:39:53,100 --> 03:39:55,100 criticisms that I previously 5565 03:39:55,100 --> 03:39:59,801 made was that I felt at the time 5566 03:40:00,100 --> 03:40:01,100 our performance appraisal 5567 03:40:01,100 --> 03:40:04,601 structure was used as a reward 5568 03:40:05,100 --> 03:40:07,100 and punishment mechanism and a 5569 03:40:07,100 --> 03:40:09,100 lack of consistency across 5570 03:40:09,100 --> 03:40:11,100 functional areas in terms of how 5571 03:40:11,100 --> 03:40:13,401 people evaluated their, their 5572 03:40:18,100 --> 03:40:20,100 subordinates. 5573 03:40:20,100 --> 03:40:22,100 I presume even though I will 5574 03:40:22,100 --> 03:40:24,100 probably ask you for some 5575 03:40:24,100 --> 03:40:26,100 further feedback on how this has 5576 03:40:26,100 --> 03:40:28,100 improved our systems. 5577 03:40:30,100 --> 03:40:32,100 for you to have taken this 5578 03:40:32,100 --> 03:40:34,100 forward and provided the 5579 03:40:34,100 --> 03:40:37,100 training to your supervisors is 5580 03:40:39,100 --> 03:40:41,401 obviously a responsive message 5581 03:40:42,100 --> 03:40:44,100 to what we had in that area. 5582 03:40:44,100 --> 03:40:45,100 to create a cons sis tent see 5583 03:40:45,100 --> 03:40:47,100 across the organization not only 5584 03:40:47,100 --> 03:40:49,100 in terms of the need to do it 5585 03:40:49,100 --> 03:40:52,601 but the goal of doing it. 5586 03:40:53,100 --> 03:40:56,100 the need to do it timely. 5587 03:40:56,100 --> 03:40:59,601 so, I commend you for that. 5588 03:41:00,100 --> 03:41:02,100 interview and slicks. 5589 03:41:02,100 --> 03:41:03,100 we have talked about, you 5590 03:41:03,100 --> 03:41:06,100 know -- not knocking engineers 5591 03:41:11,100 --> 03:41:12,100 but I will use one as an 5592 03:41:12,100 --> 03:41:13,100 example. 5593 03:41:13,100 --> 03:41:16,601 you may be a great one. 5594 03:41:17,100 --> 03:41:19,100 engineer is technical based 5595 03:41:19,100 --> 03:41:20,100 thing. 5596 03:41:20,100 --> 03:41:21,100 we have quite a few in the 5597 03:41:21,100 --> 03:41:22,100 organization. 5598 03:41:22,100 --> 03:41:24,100 you maybe a cop or whatever. 5599 03:41:24,100 --> 03:41:25,100 because of that capacity that 5600 03:41:25,100 --> 03:41:27,100 you have you end up in a 5601 03:41:27,100 --> 03:41:30,100 supervisor roll or big boss 5602 03:41:30,100 --> 03:41:31,100 roll. 5603 03:41:31,100 --> 03:41:34,601 you have never been trained -- 5604 03:41:37,100 --> 03:41:39,100 [inaudible] 5605 03:41:39,100 --> 03:41:41,100 so you may have someone very 5606 03:41:41,100 --> 03:41:43,100 instrumental in selection and 5607 03:41:43,100 --> 03:41:46,100 training or interviewing or they 5608 03:41:47,100 --> 03:41:49,100 were not trained on how to do 5609 03:41:49,100 --> 03:41:50,100 it. 5610 03:41:50,100 --> 03:41:53,100 otherwise even given some basic 5611 03:41:54,100 --> 03:41:57,601 framework how do it fairly and 5612 03:41:58,100 --> 03:41:59,100 appropriately. 5613 03:41:59,100 --> 03:42:02,601 I see here again you indicated 5614 03:42:03,100 --> 03:42:06,100 that you developed -- training 5615 03:42:07,100 --> 03:42:09,100 for supervisors. 5616 03:42:09,100 --> 03:42:12,601 you know those of us listening. 5617 03:42:14,100 --> 03:42:16,100 I know you all are. 5618 03:42:16,100 --> 03:42:18,100 you have heard me comment about 5619 03:42:18,100 --> 03:42:19,100 a lack of diversity in the 5620 03:42:19,100 --> 03:42:21,100 organization at a certain point 5621 03:42:21,100 --> 03:42:22,100 in time. 5622 03:42:22,100 --> 03:42:24,100 I think part of that may of been 5623 03:42:24,100 --> 03:42:26,100 a weakness in this area in terms 5624 03:42:26,100 --> 03:42:28,401 of interview and selection. 5625 03:42:29,100 --> 03:42:32,100 because people may of used more 5626 03:42:32,100 --> 03:42:34,100 subjective basis for 5627 03:42:34,100 --> 03:42:36,100 interviewing and selecting 5628 03:42:37,100 --> 03:42:38,100 candidates. 5629 03:42:38,100 --> 03:42:41,100 more so than any deliberate 5630 03:42:41,100 --> 03:42:44,601 attempt to be, to create some 5631 03:42:51,100 --> 03:42:54,100 sort of a intentional bias 5632 03:42:55,100 --> 03:42:56,100 related decision. 5633 03:42:56,100 --> 03:43:00,100 so, these are all things I think 5634 03:43:00,100 --> 03:43:02,401 that strengthen the organization 5635 03:43:04,100 --> 03:43:06,100 and the structure of the 5636 03:43:06,100 --> 03:43:07,100 organization. 5637 03:43:07,100 --> 03:43:08,100 I commend you on those 5638 03:43:08,100 --> 03:43:09,100 initiatives. 5639 03:43:09,100 --> 03:43:11,100 grants. 5640 03:43:15,100 --> 03:43:17,100 you know some of these just 5641 03:43:17,100 --> 03:43:19,100 flowed. 5642 03:43:19,100 --> 03:43:22,100 we are always happy to get 5643 03:43:22,100 --> 03:43:23,100 money. 5644 03:43:23,100 --> 03:43:24,100 certainly we're always happy 5645 03:43:24,100 --> 03:43:26,401 when staff brings different 5646 03:43:27,100 --> 03:43:29,100 grant opportunities forward even 5647 03:43:29,100 --> 03:43:32,100 when we are not thing about it. 5648 03:43:32,100 --> 03:43:35,601 on the capitol project side I 5649 03:43:36,100 --> 03:43:37,100 don't know. 5650 03:43:37,100 --> 03:43:40,100 we have had some successes. 5651 03:43:40,100 --> 03:43:42,100 we have had some failures. 5652 03:43:42,100 --> 03:43:46,201 two big failures -- park and of 5653 03:43:48,100 --> 03:43:50,100 course currently we're kind of 5654 03:43:50,100 --> 03:43:53,100 hung up with the veterans park. 5655 03:43:53,100 --> 03:43:57,100 I don't know how much of to 5656 03:43:57,100 --> 03:43:58,100 blame on staff or not. 5657 03:43:58,100 --> 03:44:01,100 I know obviously the contractor 5658 03:44:01,100 --> 03:44:05,201 has the bulk of the blame here. 5659 03:44:07,100 --> 03:44:10,601 but I don't know whether there 5660 03:44:13,100 --> 03:44:16,100 was anything better we could of 5661 03:44:16,100 --> 03:44:17,100 done in terms of how we held 5662 03:44:17,100 --> 03:44:19,401 that contractor, managed the 5663 03:44:22,100 --> 03:44:25,601 contractor or held him to task 5664 03:44:28,100 --> 03:44:31,100 through various faces of the 5665 03:44:31,100 --> 03:44:32,100 project. 5666 03:44:32,100 --> 03:44:34,100 -- some of what has happened 5667 03:44:34,100 --> 03:44:35,100 here. 5668 03:44:35,100 --> 03:44:37,100 that is water under the bridge. 5669 03:44:37,100 --> 03:44:40,100 I can tell you that. We all have 5670 03:44:40,100 --> 03:44:41,100 learned from our failures in 5671 03:44:41,100 --> 03:44:42,100 this area. 5672 03:44:42,100 --> 03:44:46,801 I will be the first to take some 5673 03:44:47,100 --> 03:44:48,100 of it. 5674 03:44:48,100 --> 03:44:50,100 I will pass some of it down the 5675 03:44:50,100 --> 03:44:51,100 line. 5676 03:44:51,100 --> 03:44:54,601 really, really -- this one is 5677 03:44:56,100 --> 03:45:00,201 one that really I feel I haven't 5678 03:45:01,100 --> 03:45:04,100 done as much as I could to get 5679 03:45:04,100 --> 03:45:05,100 these projects completed on 5680 03:45:05,100 --> 03:45:07,100 time, on budget. 5681 03:45:07,100 --> 03:45:10,100 really holding the contractor to 5682 03:45:11,100 --> 03:45:12,100 the requirements of the 5683 03:45:12,100 --> 03:45:13,100 contract. 5684 03:45:13,100 --> 03:45:16,601 I know you will fix it 5685 03:45:19,100 --> 03:45:21,100 you will get it fixed. 5686 03:45:21,100 --> 03:45:24,100 generally

04:48:40,100 are military. 7339 04:48:40,100 --> 04:48:42,100 a leopard is a leopard. 7340 04:48:42,100 --> 04:48:44,100 a wolf is a wolf. 7341 04:48:44,100 --> 04:48:45,100 a sheep is a sheep. 7342 04:48:45,100 --> 04:48:48,100 I didn't choose a sheep for the 7343 04:48:48,100 --> 04:48:50,100 reasons that when you have a 7344 04:48:50,100 --> 04:48:53,100 hierarchy of machine and women 7345 04:48:54,100 --> 04:48:56,100 running around town with guns 7346 04:48:56,100 --> 04:48:57,100 you need strong leadership. 7347 04:48:57,100 --> 04:48:59,100 I believe you're that. 7348 04:48:59,100 --> 04:49:02,601 so you though we have worked 7349 04:49:04,100 --> 04:49:05,100 well together. 7350 04:49:05,100 --> 04:49:07,100 covid brought challenges which 7351 04:49:07,100 --> 04:49:09,100 your men and women have gone out 7352 04:49:09,100 --> 04:49:11,100 there to help with food drives 7353 04:49:11,100 --> 04:49:14,100 and different things that are 7354 04:49:16,100 --> 04:49:17,100 sometimes outside of the scope 7355 04:49:17,100 --> 04:49:19,100 of typical policing. 7356 04:49:20,100 --> 04:49:22,100 and I have often said that in 7357 04:49:22,100 --> 04:49:24,100 some areas we do over use the 7358 04:49:24,100 --> 04:49:25,100 police. 7359 04:49:25,100 --> 04:49:28,100 not just sunrise but generally, 7360 04:49:32,100 --> 04:49:33,100 philosophically. 7361 04:49:33,100 --> 04:49:35,100 there are so many areas that we 7362 04:49:35,100 --> 04:49:36,100 use the police that may not of 7363 04:49:36,100 --> 04:49:37,100 required police. 7364 04:49:37,100 --> 04:49:40,100 that is a big over arching issue 7365 04:49:40,100 --> 04:49:42,100 for policing across the country 7366 04:49:42,100 --> 04:49:43,100 where we bring the police into 7367 04:49:43,100 --> 04:49:46,100 contact with citizens where they 7368 04:49:46,100 --> 04:49:48,100 probably ought not to have and 7369 04:49:48,100 --> 04:49:52,201 it escalates into, I gave you a 7370 04:49:54,100 --> 04:49:55,100 command. 7371 04:49:55,100 --> 04:49:56,100 you didn't follow it. 7372 04:49:56,100 --> 04:49:58,100 I'm taking you to the ground, or 7373 04:49:58,100 --> 04:50:00,100 whatever language is used. 7374 04:50:00,100 --> 04:50:01,100 next thing you know it's 7375 04:50:01,100 --> 04:50:04,100 resisting arrest or whatever it 7376 04:50:04,100 --> 04:50:06,100 escalates. 7377 04:50:07,100 --> 04:50:08,100 probably we needed a different 7378 04:50:08,100 --> 04:50:11,100 professional for that. You have 7379 04:50:12,100 --> 04:50:13,100 been able to make the 7380 04:50:13,100 --> 04:50:14,100 adjustments. 7381 04:50:14,100 --> 04:50:17,100 you certainly have proven to be 7382 04:50:17,100 --> 04:50:19,100 a leader among leaders. 7383 04:50:19,100 --> 04:50:21,100 I have heard of the work you did 7384 04:50:21,100 --> 04:50:24,100 with the 911, 9-11 task forces 7385 04:50:26,100 --> 04:50:27,100 that were in place. 7386 04:50:27,100 --> 04:50:28,100 that was more active when the 7387 04:50:28,100 --> 04:50:30,401 formation was taking place. 7388 04:50:31,100 --> 04:50:34,601 now

I want to pause for a moment and 7592 04:57:56,100 --> 04:57:59,601 reflect upon perhaps some of the 7593 04:58:00,100 --> 04:58:02,100 best examples of why I believe 7594 04:58:02,100 --> 04:58:04,100 and I think my colleagues 7595 04:58:04,100 --> 04:58:06,100 believe we have the best police 7596 04:58:06,100 --> 04:58:09,100 chief in the county for sure. 7597 04:58:09,100 -->

criticisms of police 7601 04:58:18,100 --> 04:58:21,100 departments that came from prior 7602 04:58:23,100 --> 04:58:26,601 task forces and blue rip on 7603 04:58:27,100 --> 04:58:29,401 commissions

that 7607 04:58:38,100 --> 04:58:41,100 worked was for too long police 7608 04:58:41,100 --> 04:58:42,100 departments were silent when 7609 04:58:42,100 --> 04:58:44,100 something happened a thousand 7610 04:58:44,100 --> 04:58:45,100 miles away. 7611 04:58:45,100 --> 04:58:49,201 no matter how the conduct of the 7612 04:58:53,100 --> 04:58:54,100 police officers there was 7613 04:58:54,100 --> 04:58:55,100 silence. 7614 04:58:55,100 --> 04:58:57,401 that silence is acquiescence. 7615 04:59:01,100 --> 04:59:04,601 it's true there was this level 7616 04:59:11,100 --> 04:59:12,100 of silence. 7617 04:59:12,100 --> 04:59:15,100 your work with the police 7618 04:59:15,100 --> 04:59:17,100 chief's association to rapidly 7619 04:59:17,100 --> 04:59:19,100 issue a statement condemning the 7620 04:59:19,100 --> 04:59:21,100 activity and conduct that 7621 04:59:21,100 --> 04:59:24,100 resulted in george floyd's death 7622 04:59:27,100 --> 04:59:30,100 sent a strong message tonight 7623 04:59:31,100 --> 04:59:32,100 community about community 7624 04:59:32,100 --> 04:59:33,100 policing. 7625 04:59:33,100 --> 04:59:35,100 it's not just easy, peaceful and 7626 04:59:35,100 --> 04:59:37,100 pop up barbecues. 7627 04:59:37,100 --> 04:59:39,100 it's being there for tough 7628 04:59:39,100 --> 04:59:40,100 discussions. 7629 04:59:40,100 --> 04:59:43,601 you were further tested when the 7630 04:59:44,100 --> 04:59:46,100 community came out to be heard 7631 04:59:46,100 --> 04:59:47,100 and to march. 7632 04:59:47,100 --> 04:59:49,100 we saw how other communities 7633 04:59:49,100 --> 04:59:51,100 managed those challenging 7634 04:59:52,100 --> 04:59:54,100 situations. 7635 04:59:54,100 --> 04:59:57,100 while behind the scenes you and 7636 04:59:57,100 --> 04:59:59,100 many departments were prepared 7637 04:59:59,100 --> 05:00:01,401 for potentially the worst 7638 05:00:04,100 --> 05:00:06,100 situation you set a tone of 7639 05:00:06,100 --> 05:00:08,401 leadership with your command 7640 05:00:09,100 --> 05:00:12,601 staff that was evidence to all 7641 05:00:16,100 --> 05:00:17,100 in uniform on the street. 7642 05:00:17,100 --> 05:00:20,100 when the marchs began in sunrise 7643 05:00:20,100 --> 05:00:22,401 your philosophy that traffic 7644 05:00:24,100 --> 05:00:27,100 inconvenience was not a reason 7645 05:00:27,100 --> 05:00:29,100 to interrupt first amendment 7646 05:00:29,100 --> 05:00:31,100 rights or allow people to be 7647 05:00:31,100 --> 05:00:33,100 heard resulted in one of the 7648 05:00:33,100 --> 05:00:36,100 most unusual scenes I have had 7649 05:00:36,100 --> 05:00:37,100 the opportunity to observe in 7650 05:00:37,100 --> 05:00:40,100 the years I have been here. 7651 05:00:40,100 --> 05:00:42,100 that includes many of those 7652 05:00:42,100 --> 05:00:45,100 protesters thanking you and your 7653 05:00:46,100 --> 05:00:47,100 officers for allowing it to 7654 05:00:47,100 --> 05:00:48,100 happen. 7655 05:00:48,100 --> 05:00:50,100 to flow. 7656 05:00:50,100 --> 05:00:51,100 even moments where I saw you 7657 05:00:51,100 --> 05:00:53,100 personally get out of the car to 7658 05:00:53,100 --> 05:00:55,100 help those who were marching in 7659 05:00:55,100 --> 05:00:57,100 need of water or assistance. 7660 05:00:57,100 --> 05:00:59,100 it was honest and not for a 7661 05:00:59,100 --> 05:01:00,100 photo op. 7662 05:01:00,100 --> 05:01:02,100 it was because you truly cared 7663 05:01:02,100 --> 05:01:05,100 about those that were there with 7664 05:01:05,100 --> 05:01:07,100 not only the right but the 7665 05:01:07,100 --> 05:01:09,100 obligation to have their voices 7666 05:01:09,100 --> 05:01:10,100 heard. 7667 05:01:10,100 --> 05:01:12,100 as the march

7671 05:01:19,100 --> 05:01:21,100 officers giving rides to some 7672 05:01:21,100 --> 05:01:23,100 protesters who had a long way to 7673 05:01:23,100 --> 05:01:25,100 go to cars or not feeling well.

that was kind of 8063 05:15:07,100 --> 05:15:08,100 interesting because we probably 8064 05:15:08,100 --> 05:15:10,100 had more different election 8065 05:15:10,100 --> 05:15:13,100 items on the 2020

05:23:18,100 --> 05:23:19,100 that. 8264 05:23:19,100 --> 05:23:20,100 knowing that you had someone who 8265 05:23:20,100 --> 05:23:23,100 was eligible and voiced your 8266 05:23:23,100 --> 05:23:24,100 opinions about it. 8267 05:23:24,100 --> 05:23:26,100 that means a lot for the person 8268 05:23:26,100 --> 05:23:28,100 sticking up for their employees. 8269 05:23:28,100 --> 05:23:31,601 so, like I say that presentation 8270 05:23:33,100 --> 05:23:35,100 really put it to what it is that 8271 05:23:35,100 --> 05:23:39,100 you really do and how a wide 8272 05:23:39,100 -->

8282 05:24:03,100 --> 05:24:05,100 with electronic. 8283 05:24:05,100 --> 05:24:08,100 so, you know you have a lot on 8284 05:24:08,100 --> 05:24:09,100 your plate. 8285 05:24:09,100 --> 05:24:12,601 like you said for this election, 8286 05:24:13,100 --> 05:24:15,100 when we use to do the elections 8287 05:24:15,100 --> 05:24:17,100 in march that was just what it 8288 05:24:17,100 --> 05:24:18,100

05:24:24,100 because the general elections 8293 05:24:24,100 --> 05:24:27,100 were for governor and president 8294 05:24:28,100 --> 05:24:29,100 and stuff. 8295 05:24:29,100 --> 05:24:32,100 then the

05:54:10,100 some employees are clearly 9095 05:54:10,100 --> 05:54:11,100 interested in attending with the 9096 05:54:11,100 --> 05:54:13,401 number of sign ups. 9097 05:54:14,100 --> 05:54:16,100 I have concerns over all with 9098 05:54:16,100 --> 05:54:18,100 where things are trending from 9099 05:54:18,100 --> 05:54:20,100 my perspective. 9100 05:54:20,100 --> 05:54:22,100 >> have you, have you 9101 05:54:22,100 --> 05:54:23,100 established for the purposes of 9102 05:54:23,100 --> 05:54:25,100 the dinner whether or not it's 9103 05:54:25,100 --> 05:54:27,100 for, I'm not asking that you 9104 05:54:27,100 --> 05:54:30,100 should, I'm asking if you have, 9105 05:54:30,100 --> 05:54:32,100 either people should be 9106 05:54:32,100 --> 05:54:34,401 vaccinated or mask requirement? 9107 05:54:35,100 --> 05:54:37,100 have you -- 9108 05:54:37,100 --> 05:54:39,100 >> I think it's inappropriate to 9109 05:54:39,100 --> 05:54:41,100 put the city manager in that 9110 05:54:41,100 --> 05:54:42,100 position. 9111 05:54:42,100 --> 05:54:44,100 >> excuse me I have the floor. 9112 05:54:44,100 --> 05:54:45,100 >> you can have the floor. 9113 05:54:45,100 --> 05:54:47,100 I don't think you should ask the 9114 05:54:47,100 --> 05:54:49,100 city manager to make the 9115 05:54:49,100 --> 05:54:50,100 decision on the spot. 9116 05:54:50,100 --> 05:54:52,401 >> that may well be. 9117 05:54:53,100 --> 05:54:54,100 I'm asking him. 9118 05:54:54,100 --> 05:54:56,100 if I can do that without -- 9119 05:54:56,100 --> 05:54:59,100 >> you didn't come last year -- 9120 05:54:59,100 --> 05:55:00,100 >> come on it's too late. 9121 05:55:00,100 --> 05:55:03,100 >> mayor the floor is yours. 9122 05:55:04,100 --> 05:55:06,100 >> -- and have you considered 9123 05:55:06,100 --> 05:55:09,100 whether to reinstitute a mask 9124 05:55:09,100 --> 05:55:11,100 requirement in general as 9125 05:55:11,100 --> 05:55:13,100 broward county has done for 9126 05:55:13,100 --> 05:55:15,100 government buildings and for 9127 05:55:15,100 --> 05:55:17,401 those in our offices? 9128 05:55:18,100 --> 05:55:20,401 >> so regarding the employee 9129 05:55:21,100 --> 05:55:24,100 appreciations dinner no, we have 9130 05:55:24,100 --> 05:55:27,100 not identified that as a 9131 05:55:27,100 --> 05:55:29,100 requirement in terms of masks. 9132 05:55:29,100 --> 05:55:32,601 now, relating to a mask mandate 9133 05:55:33,100 --> 05:55:34,100 across the city. 9134 05:55:34,100 --> 05:55:37,100 we have done as an organization 9135 05:55:37,100 --> 05:55:39,100 I think we have done a good job 9136 05:55:39,100 --> 05:55:41,100 in communicating to our staff 9137 05:55:41,100 --> 05:55:43,401 about recommending and strongly 9138 05:55:44,100 --> 05:55:46,100 recommend our employees wear 9139 05:55:46,100 --> 05:55:47,100 masks. 9140 05:55:47,100 --> 05:55:49,100 I think our employees have done 9141 05:55:49,100 --> 05:55:50,100 a excellent job. 9142 05:55:50,100 --> 05:55:52,100 although there has been a few 9143 05:55:52,100 --> 05:55:55,100 issues outside of the city hall. 9144 05:55:55,100 --> 05:55:57,100 I think generally you know we 9145 05:55:57,100 --> 05:55:59,100 don't have, we're not seeing 9146 05:55:59,100 --> 05:56:01,100 significant increases in covid 9147 05:56:01,100 --> 05:56:02,100 for our employees. 9148 05:56:02,100 --> 05:56:04,100 I think they have done a 9149 05:56:04,100 --> 05:56:06,100 excellent job in terms of a mask 9150 05:56:06,100 --> 05:56:07,100 mandate. 9151 05:56:07,100 --> 05:56:09,100 if the commission would like for 9152 05:56:09,100 --> 05:56:11,100 us to look at that further I 9153 05:56:11,100 --> 05:56:13,100 certainly can. 9154 05:56:21,100 --> 05:56:23,100 >> mayor, any other comments? 9155 05:56:23,100 --> 05:56:24,100 >> no. 9156 05:56:24,100 --> 05:56:26,100 >> I will open it up. 9157 05:56:26,100 --> 05:56:28,100 >> to the city manager, we 9158 05:56:28,100 --> 05:56:31,100 understand what is going on. 9159 05:56:32,100 --> 05:56:34,100 normally at this dinner we 9160 05:56:34,100 --> 05:56:37,100 morally get five, six hundred. 9161 05:56:40,100 --> 05:56:43,100 I'm saying normally we have five 9162 05:56:43,100 --> 05:56:44,100 to six hundred. 9163 05:56:44,100 --> 05:56:46,100 >> it varies each year. 9164 05:56:46,100 --> 05:56:48,100 it's generally three hundred to 9165 05:56:48,100 --> 05:56:50,100 five hundred employees. 9166 05:56:50,100 --> 05:56:51,100 >> we're at two hundred. 9167 05:56:51,100 --> 05:56:54,100 I'm saying, I'm just saying -- 9168 05:56:54,100 --> 05:56:56,100 you think a lot of the employees 9169 05:56:56,100 --> 05:56:59,100 are nervous or spouses are 9170 05:57:01,100 --> 05:57:02,100 nervous and maybe they don't 9171 05:57:02,100 --> 05:57:06,201 want to and that's why it's -- 9172 05:57:09,100 --> 05:57:12,601 >> the question to ask is do 9173 05:57:15,110 --> 05:57:16,750 people sign up prior to coming. 9174 05:57:16,750 --> 05:57:18,387 >> then my next question -- do 9175 05:57:18,387 --> 05:57:20,787 normally everybody just start 9176 05:57:21,100 --> 05:57:22,100 saying they're going the last 9177 05:57:22,100 --> 05:57:24,100 week. 9178 05:57:26,100 --> 05:57:27,100 normally or not. 9179 05:57:27,100 --> 05:57:28,100 >> yes. 9180 05:57:28,100 --> 05:57:31,100 usually you will see a sign up 9181 05:57:31,100 --> 05:57:34,100 also towards the late end. 9182 05:57:34,100 --> 05:57:36,100 there is a group of employees 9183 05:57:36,100 --> 05:57:37,100 that are concerned and won't 9184 05:57:37,100 --> 05:57:40,100 attend because of the concerns 9185 05:57:45,100 --> 05:57:46,100 with covid. 9186 05:57:46,100 --> 05:57:47,100 I believe there is a group that 9187 05:57:47,100 --> 05:57:48,100 exists. 9188 05:57:48,100 --> 05:57:51,100 >> if we cancel do we lose, I'm 9189 05:57:51,100 --> 05:57:54,100 not worried about the deposit. 9190 05:57:54,100 --> 05:57:56,100 >> if we cancel we definitely 9191 05:57:56,100 --> 05:57:58,100 will lose a significant portion 9192 05:57:58,100 --> 05:58:01,601 of the, of the funds like 75% 9193 05:58:02,100 --> 05:58:04,100 plus a cancellation fee. 9194 05:58:04,100 --> 05:58:05,100 we have not been able to 9195 05:58:05,100 --> 05:58:08,100 determine is if we postpone it 9196 05:58:08,100 --> 05:58:11,100 or move it to another date if 9197 05:58:11,100 --> 05:58:13,100 there is a financial implication 9198 05:58:13,100 --> 05:58:14,100 for that. 9199 05:58:14,100 --> 05:58:17,601 >> I'm just saying I mean -- 9200 05:58:18,100 -->

general. 9732 06:17:17,100 --> 06:17:19,100 >> I think we should make a 9733 06:17:19,100 --> 06:17:20,100 decision. 9734 06:17:20,100 --> 06:17:21,100 give him the direction. 9735 06:17:21,100 --> 06:17:22,100 if he does it he's doing 9736 06:17:22,100 --> 06:17:24,100 something inconsistent with 9737 06:17:24,100 --> 06:17:26,100 previous decision that's we have 9738 06:17:26,100 --> 06:17:27,100 made. 9739 06:17:27,100 --> 06:17:29,100 >> but see I will tell you, we 9740 06:17:29,100 --> 06:17:31,100 were all here that day. 9741 06:17:31,100 --> 06:17:33,100 he wanted us to have

9745 06:17:41,100 --> 06:17:43,100 probably 90% of them wear a 9746 06:17:43,100 --> 06:17:44,100 mask. 9747 06:17:44,100 --> 06:17:46,100 where as if you go to the public 9748 06:17:46,100 --> 06:17:48,401 safety building 20% of the 9749 06:17:54,100 --> 06:17:56,100 people wear a mask there. 9750 06:17:56,100 --> 06:17:57,100 is a big difference of someone 9751 06:17:57,100 -->
