hastily. You not that. You

408
00:17:05,801 --> 00:17:08,938
know, you have a budget that

409
00:17:08,938 --> 00:17:09,905
runs the show.

410
00:17:09,905 --> 00:17:12,305
>> Played have utilized have

411
00:17:12,308 --> 00:17:14,308

416
00:17:20,950 --> 00:17:22,852
call the Department of Justice

417
00:17:22,852 --> 00:17:25,252
Civil Rights Division cut

418
00:17:37,967 --> 00:17:40,367
right place at the

419
00:18:05,695 --> 00:18:07,695
Second

420
00:18:18,908 --> 00:18:21,908
time. Take him out to.

421
00:19:05,454 --> 00:19:05,989
Give them just a minute to

422
00:19:05,989 --> 00:19:08,389
regroup and get law

423
00:19:20,837 --> 00:19:22,837
enforcement back inside.

424
00:20:04,347 --> 00:20:06,347
We'll

425
00:20:07,217 --> 00:20:10,817
move on. Somebody by the name

426
00:20:28,137 --> 00:20:31,737
hit be. Ok, Mike Taylor. Want

427
00:20:31,808 --> 00:20:32,642
to take my hat off and

428
00:20:32,642 --> 00:20:33,242
>> I'm only going to talk

429
00:20:33,242 --> 00:20:33,877
about things that have

430
00:20:33,877 --> 00:20:36,277
happened in this council

431
00:20:37,747 --> 00:20:38,915
chambers. So I'm guessing that

432
00:20:38,915 --> 00:20:42,520
is under the purview of the

433
00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:43,486
council. Just want to make

434
00:20:43,486 --> 00:20:46,356
sure I don't get kicked out

435
00:20:46,356 --> 00:20:47,824
for something I didn't do. But

436
00:20:47,824 --> 00:20:50,824
anyway, I'm honest. I wrote

437
00:20:52,162 --> 00:20:55,162
something. In a minute. I'm

438
00:20:57,900 --> 00:20:59,836
doing this nicest way. I can.

439
00:20:59,836 --> 00:21:01,905
Little commissioners don't say

440
00:21:01,905 --> 00:21:04,540
a word. I might say something

441
00:21:04,540 --> 00:21:07,540
that you already heard and

442
00:21:07,777 --> 00:21:08,644
it's something I say might

443
00:21:08,644 --> 00:21:10,513
make you I brought a little

444
00:21:10,513 --> 00:21:12,513

make you glad. All even right

447
00:21:17,653 --> 00:21:21,853
here. If you want to come get

448
00:21:22,225 --> 00:21:25,225
them. What I'm noticing here

449
00:21:27,297 --> 00:21:29,666
is that. Free speech. Like

450
00:21:29,666 --> 00:21:32,666
literally free speech is. Is

451
00:21:34,700 --> 00:21:36,470
something that. People can't.

452
00:21:38,675 --> 00:21:41,750
Grass. You know, for 3

453
00:21:42,479 --> 00:21:43,213
minutes. Just let us speak.

454
00:21:43,213 --> 00:21:43,780
You know, this woman back here

455
00:21:43,780 --> 00:21:44,414
wanted to speak about

456
00:21:44,414 --> 00:21:46,814
something that she's been

457
00:21:47,180 --> 00:21:50,180
going through. And you shut

458
00:21:50,253 --> 00:21:53,253
her down. Completely shut her

459
00:21:57,260 --> 00:21:57,727
down. I'm trying to be really

460
00:21:57,727 --> 00:22:00,727
nice and I'm not seeing

461
00:22:01,364 --> 00:22:02,650
anything.

462
00:22:02,650 --> 00:22:05,650
>> Nor you remember the other

463
00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:11,207
times that I've come here. I

464
00:22:11,207 --> 00:22:12,308
am truly.

465
00:22:12,308 --> 00:22:14,477
>> I just I think this is the

466
00:22:14,477 --> 00:22:16,713
most disgusting thing that

467
00:22:16,713 --> 00:22:17,647
ever seen. And for whatever

468
00:22:17,647 --> 00:22:19,149
attorney.

469
00:22:19,149 --> 00:22:19,749
>> Whether or not on the list

470
00:22:19,749 --> 00:22:21,718
anymore, if that's not

471
00:22:21,718 --> 00:22:22,619
something we have control of

472
00:22:22,619 --> 00:22:23,353
the U.S. You do have this

473
00:22:23,353 --> 00:22:26,953
second warning. I gave you one

474
00:22:27,457 --> 00:22:28,192

475
00:22:28,192 --> 00:22:32,392

476
00:22:33,663 --> 00:22:35,865
taken out? Except to you.

477
00:22:35,865 --> 00:22:36,966

say came out scout a boater

479
00:22:37,734 --> 00:22:39,403
place. Taliban tone versus

480
00:22:39,403 --> 00:22:40,360
California allows me to say

481
00:22:40,360 --> 00:22:43,360
this doesn't like a phone

482
00:22:44,541 --> 00:22:47,444

>> That's look at and that

487
00:23:13,771 --> 00:23:15,138

845
00:37:22,355 --> 00:37:24,755
tradition and on the

846
00:37:25,592 --> 00:37:27,861
courthouse lawn. I think that

847
00:37:27,861 --> 00:37:29,861
is before you.

848
00:37:34,601 --> 00:37:35,601
>> I think we need it. What's

849
00:37:35,601 --> 00:37:36,436
the pleasure of the board? A

850
00:37:36,436 --> 00:37:37,503
move But we do this every year

851
00:37:37,503 --> 00:37:40,206
is a great event that show

852
00:37:40,206 --> 00:37:41,374
proud to be part of it. So we

853
00:37:41,374 --> 00:37:42,375
have a motion by Commissioner

854
00:37:42,375 --> 00:37:43,142
good bread. Second by

855
00:37:43,142 --> 00:37:44,611
Commissioner Burrows all in

857
00:37:45,278 --> 00:37:47,480
opposed. Nay motion carries

for us. Can we take a short

861
00:37:53,720 --> 00:37:54,320
break in this? Make sure that.

862
00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:56,720
Get everybody to their

863
00:37:59,266 --> 00:37:59,966
>> He joined the group. Okay.

864
00:37:59,966 --> 00:38:02,966
We'll call the meeting back.

865
00:38:03,937 --> 00:38:06,937
Daughter. Okay. We're going to

866
00:38:07,441 --> 00:38:08,108
do discussion about the

867
00:38:08,108 --> 00:38:09,542
authorizing trespassed from

868
00:38:09,542 --> 00:38:10,243
county facilities in this

869
00:38:10,243 --> 00:38:11,711
attorney ago. You're going to

870
00:38:11,711 --> 00:38:15,311
take this one. Thank you so

871
00:38:15,582 --> 00:38:17,582
much. MISTER Chair.

872
00:38:18,551 --> 00:38:19,252
>> This with respect to our

873
00:38:19,252 --> 00:38:22,252
discussion for the last over

874
00:38:22,622 --> 00:38:25,622
the last 2 meetings about the

875
00:38:26,493 --> 00:38:27,594
trust pass ordinance. So

876
00:38:27,594 --> 00:38:29,994
basically what provided here

877
00:38:30,497 --> 00:38:31,398
is a memorandum just

878
00:38:31,398 --> 00:38:32,766
discussing the remedies

879
00:38:32,766 --> 00:38:34,766
available the options

880
00:38:36,570 --> 00:38:37,771
available to the county. So in

881
00:38:37,771 --> 00:38:38,705
general trespass warnings are

882
00:38:38,705 --> 00:38:39,573
lawful. They're allowed under

883
00:38:39,573 --> 00:38:40,240
state law to protect and

884
00:38:40,240 --> 00:38:42,976
respond to a threat public

885
00:38:42,976 --> 00:38:45,879
safety and protect the public

886
00:38:45,879 --> 00:38:47,800
welfare. However, when we

887
00:38:47,800 --> 00:38:47,814
issue a trespass warning for a

888
00:38:47,814 --> 00:38:48,481
public facility, we do have to

889
00:38:48,481 --> 00:38:49,349
have safeguards in place to

890
00:38:49,349 --> 00:38:51,510
ensure their due process

891
00:38:51,510 --> 00:38:53,451
rights afforded by the

892
00:38:57,256 --> 00:38:57,958
Constitution. So we we have

893
00:38:57,958 --> 00:38:59,158
some ordinances in place. We

894
00:38:59,158 --> 00:38:59,860
have a public camping

895
00:38:59,860 --> 00:39:01,940
ordinance. We have the parks

896
00:39:01,940 --> 00:39:03,494
and recreation ordinance for

897
00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:04,731
their facilities. But

898
00:39:04,731 --> 00:39:06,733
effectively the goal is to

899
00:39:06,733 --> 00:39:09,733
create this ordinance for all

900
00:39:10,470 --> 00:39:13,470
public facilities. And the key

901
00:39:14,874 --> 00:39:16,843
is to ensure that there's an

902
00:39:16,843 --> 00:39:17,644
appeal process. So if someone

903
00:39:17,644 --> 00:39:20,644
is trespassed that they have

904
00:39:21,915 --> 00:39:24,384
the opportunity to appeal. And

905
00:39:24,384 --> 00:39:27,984
so in keeping with that, we've

906
00:39:28,421 --> 00:39:29,390
provided the Palm Coast City

907
00:39:29,390 --> 00:39:32,159
code which is strong ordinance

908
00:39:32,159 --> 00:39:34,327
that has not been challenge.

909
00:39:34,327 --> 00:39:35,280
And so it's our provision.

910
00:39:35,280 --> 00:39:37,130
It's our recommendation that

911
00:39:37,130 --> 00:39:39,599
we adopt a similar ordinance.

912
00:39:39,599 --> 00:39:40,200
But certainly we want have

913
00:39:40,200 --> 00:39:40,834
discussion last meeting

914
00:39:40,834 --> 00:39:43,300
year-old directed that we

915
00:39:43,300 --> 00:39:43,804
would have it for up to 2

916
00:39:43,804 --> 00:39:45,773
years, which is in alignment

917
00:39:45,773 --> 00:39:48,142
with their ordinance. I have a

918
00:39:48,142 --> 00:39:48,742
question for you that can we

919
00:39:48,742 --> 00:39:51,142
make an open-ended know

920
00:39:51,244 --> 00:39:52,412
sunset.

921
00:39:52,412 --> 00:39:53,947
>> I think that they should

922
00:39:53,947 --> 00:39:58,147
have to come back in and pier

923
00:39:58,184 --> 00:40:00,487
and ask for forgiveness. And

924
00:40:00,487 --> 00:40:01,121
never do this kind of thinking

925
00:40:01,121 --> 00:40:01,822
because if you don't just

926
00:40:01,822 --> 00:40:02,489
sooner said with a dig on his

927
00:40:02,489 --> 00:40:03,190
computer going, come right

928
00:40:03,190 --> 00:40:07,390
back. So is it legal to have

929
00:40:08,596 --> 00:40:08,896
one? But no sunset.

930
00:40:08,896 --> 00:40:09,563
>> We

931
00:40:09,563 --> 00:40:11,731
>> would have to provide an

932
00:40:11,731 --> 00:40:13,731
additional process for.

933
00:40:13,767 --> 00:40:16,167
>> a petition to remove.

934
00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:19,906
>> The trespass warning.

935
00:40:19,906 --> 00:40:22,906
Reason why we provide that

936
00:40:24,811 --> 00:40:27,347
sunset is. Number one. The

937
00:40:27,347 --> 00:40:30,347
protection of due process. And

938
00:40:32,386 --> 00:40:33,190
so that we're not

939
00:40:33,190 --> 00:40:33,753
overburdening staffed by

940
00:40:33,753 --> 00:40:36,753
creating these dual process is

941
00:40:37,858 --> 00:40:40,858
number one for the required

942
00:40:41,128 --> 00:40:44,128
process appeal. Which we do

943
00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:47,340
have to require under the in

944
00:40:47,340 --> 00:40:49,703
order to protect the due

945
00:40:49,703 --> 00:40:52,103
process rights. And by

946
00:40:53,441 --> 00:40:56,441
providing the sunset. Gives us

947
00:40:57,277 --> 00:40:57,878
a nice clean automatic and as

948
00:40:57,878 --> 00:41:00,278
opposed to creating an

949
00:41:00,613 --> 00:41:03,130
additional process where? MAY

950
00:41:04,652 --> 00:41:05,552
have a person come back every

951
00:41:05,552 --> 00:41:08,552
30 days for 2 years. So how

952
00:41:10,900 --> 00:41:13,160
long can we make it lately? So

953
00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:15,329
what we found in a survey

954
00:41:15,329 --> 00:41:18,329
generally is that the 2 years

955
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:20,368
seems to be a good cap. As far

956
00:41:20,368 --> 00:41:23,368
as the trespass from public

957
00:41:24,805 --> 00:41:26,406
facilities you know, the

958
00:41:26,406 --> 00:41:27,641
there, some jurisdictions that

959
00:41:27,641 --> 00:41:31,241
go longer. There are some that

960
00:41:31,845 --> 00:41:34,548
go shorter. Only there is no

961
00:41:34,548 --> 00:41:37,548
bright line. I think that 2

962
00:41:38,552 --> 00:41:39,519
years is the is in line with

963
00:41:39,519 --> 00:41:40,287
what we see other

964
00:41:40,287 --> 00:41:42,687
jurisdictions doing that. Some

965
00:41:45,559 --> 00:41:46,259
go longer. I. In a survey we

966
00:41:46,259 --> 00:41:49,259
found Wonder Section that was

967
00:41:51,732 --> 00:41:54,935
up to 5 years. I. You I'm not

968
00:41:54,935 --> 00:41:55,969
sure that that is. A best

969
00:41:55,969 --> 00:41:58,369
practice considering that most

970
00:42:00,574 --> 00:42:01,142
are at too. But, you know,

971
00:42:01,142 --> 00:42:03,100
again, it's up to the

972
00:42:03,100 --> 00:42:03,443
direction of the board.

973
00:42:03,443 --> 00:42:05,443
Commissioner.

974
00:42:07,214 --> 00:42:08,315
>> I think from taking a look

975
00:42:08,315 --> 00:42:10,183
at the city of Palm Coast

976
00:42:10,183 --> 00:42:10,884
trespass. I think 2 things are

977
00:42:10,884 --> 00:42:12,853
made. Untreated, interesting

978
00:42:12,853 --> 00:42:15,853
comment was number one, it

979
00:42:16,724 --> 00:42:18,559
hasn't been challenged. It is

980
00:42:18,559 --> 00:42:21,559
pre detailed relative to even

981
00:42:22,330 --> 00:42:22,930
the process for go back go

982
00:42:22,930 --> 00:42:24,332
into court and for the

983
00:42:24,332 --> 00:42:27,332
appellate court. Take a look

984
00:42:28,402 --> 00:42:29,137
at. So I think you and I was

985
00:42:29,137 --> 00:42:29,837
there with with the CHAIRMAN's

986
00:42:29,837 --> 00:42:30,838
coming from on this because,

987
00:42:30,838 --> 00:42:32,874
you know, personally, I'm the

988
00:42:32,874 --> 00:42:34,508
one it talked about getting

989
00:42:34,508 --> 00:42:37,345
this done because I'm tired of

990
00:42:37,345 --> 00:42:38,120
listening to this. This in our

991
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:40,281
courtroom or in commission

992
00:42:40,281 --> 00:42:43,881
chambers. So I 2 years is a

993
00:42:44,385 --> 00:42:45,319
good, good model for one

994
00:42:45,319 --> 00:42:47,755
reason because I don't want

995
00:42:47,755 --> 00:42:48,823
him to be able to challenge

996
00:42:48,823 --> 00:42:51,823
the process if this hasn't

997
00:42:52,526 --> 00:42:53,327
been challenged as of this

998
00:42:53,327 --> 00:42:55,263
date, then list due process in

999
00:42:55,263 --> 00:42:55,896
accordance with what Palm

1000
00:42:55,896 --> 00:42:58,866
Coast done. And I believe

1001
00:42:58,866 --> 00:43:01,168
that. Puts us in a safe zone.

1002
00:43:01,168 --> 00:43:04,768
And MISTER Chair. On that same

1003
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:08,420
note. If the 2 years runs out

1004
00:43:08,420 --> 00:43:08,909
and they were to pull the same

1005
00:43:08,909 --> 00:43:09,544
person, pulled the same thing

1006
00:43:09,544 --> 00:43:12,246
in, you can simply for an

1007
00:43:12,246 --> 00:43:12,914
additional 2 years. Correct?

1008
00:43:12,914 --> 00:43:15,314
>> Yes, that's correct. So

1009
00:43:16,551 --> 00:43:17,251
that answers at This McKee did

1010
00:43:17,251 --> 00:43:19,220
one time one time. And that's

1011
00:43:19,220 --> 00:43:22,820
2 years. I stand on my hands.

1012
00:43:25,659 --> 00:43:26,694
One time. Every 2 years. It's

1013
00:43:26,694 --> 00:43:27,395
base in CHAIRMAN Is that he he

1014
00:43:27,395 --> 00:43:28,496
can come in here shoot a bird

1015
00:43:28,496 --> 00:43:32,696
you one time. And then we have

1016
00:43:36,804 --> 00:43:37,972
another 2 years. You think

1017
00:43:37,972 --> 00:43:39,907
they would do I don't know.

1018
00:43:39,907 --> 00:43:40,842
I'm just being I'm being

1019
00:43:40,842 --> 00:43:43,545
facetious, but the time. But

1020
00:43:43,545 --> 00:43:44,478
really me but to his point,

1021
00:43:44,478 --> 00:43:45,145
okay, that's exactly what

1022
00:43:45,145 --> 00:43:48,549
would happen. So he went on

1023
00:43:48,549 --> 00:43:49,884
make he or she would

1024
00:43:49,884 --> 00:43:50,551
automatically good. Another 2

1025
00:43:50,551 --> 00:43:53,551
years but settled for 3. If

1026
00:43:53,888 --> 00:43:54,822
you could get that. We've got

1027
00:43:54,822 --> 00:43:57,222
all this PRESIDENT That

1028
00:43:57,759 --> 00:43:58,426
doesn't get messed with. So if

1029
00:43:58,426 --> 00:44:01,426
it ain't broke, don't Nord

1030
00:44:02,396 --> 00:44:04,665
Norge as 5. Well, but not best

1031
00:44:04,665 --> 00:44:05,699
practices. Will Smith differs

1032
00:44:05,699 --> 00:44:06,301
is what I'm recommending. So

1033
00:44:06,301 --> 00:44:07,869
why not go with 3 of 5?

1034
00:44:07,869 --> 00:44:08,536
Doesn't get challenged.

1035
00:44:08,536 --> 00:44:11,536
>> You should be good. This

1036
00:44:13,874 --> 00:44:17,478
re. We can. If that's the will

1037
00:44:17,478 --> 00:44:18,146
of the board, you're going to

1038
00:44:18,146 --> 00:44:20,448
get 4 and you're just gonna

1039
00:44:20,448 --> 00:44:22,883
have to take a bird. You're

1040
00:44:22,883 --> 00:44:24,883
going to get 4.

1041
00:44:28,923 --> 00:44:29,623
>> And then 6 and question

1042
00:44:29,623 --> 00:44:30,258
>> that's just put us off any

1043
00:44:30,258 --> 00:44:33,258
longer. We have to change

1044
00:44:34,696 --> 00:44:36,696
anything now.

1045
00:44:36,831 --> 00:44:37,865
>> No, I mean, this would not

1046
00:44:37,865 --> 00:44:38,533
be change. This would be a

1047
00:44:38,533 --> 00:44:39,267
change in the way that I've

1048
00:44:39,267 --> 00:44:42,267
drafted the ordinance, but not

1049
00:44:43,871 --> 00:44:44,605
in a way that the ordinance

1050
00:44:44,605 --> 00:44:45,306
title has been drafted. So i

1051
00:44:45,306 --> 00:44:48,306
mean, that would be something

1052
00:44:50,144 --> 00:44:50,845
that we could. Address between

1053
00:44:50,845 --> 00:44:55,450
now and that the date of the

1054
00:44:57,185 --> 00:44:59,554
hearing. I thank you.

1055
00:44:59,554 --> 00:45:03,754
>> Is the will of the board to

1056
00:45:04,559 --> 00:45:05,459
keep it to or to admit it.

1057
00:45:05,459 --> 00:45:06,127
Appreciate because you're the

1058
00:45:06,127 --> 00:45:09,263
one taken most of this. And

1059
00:45:09,263 --> 00:45:09,931
we've set up here and

1060
00:45:09,931 --> 00:45:10,632
>> rest of us just sitting

1061
00:45:10,632 --> 00:45:12,967
watching are the ones taken.

1062
00:45:12,967 --> 00:45:14,200
So I appreciate we want to

1063
00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:14,636
come from, but I think good

1064
00:45:14,636 --> 00:45:16,905
you. We if we go on here,

1065
00:45:16,905 --> 00:45:19,474
that's going to be hasn't

1066
00:45:19,474 --> 00:45:21,510
challenge. Let's go with that.

1067
00:45:21,510 --> 00:45:22,676
And and I was being facetious.

1068
00:45:22,676 --> 00:45:24,712
But you'd be taking over. But

1069
00:45:24,712 --> 00:45:25,513
the fact remains that become a

1070
00:45:25,513 --> 00:45:26,180
one time and say something

1071
00:45:26,180 --> 00:45:28,649
negative in its would just

1072
00:45:28,649 --> 00:45:30,452
implement it again. We're done

1073
00:45:30,452 --> 00:45:31,152
with it. So you get an

1074
00:45:31,152 --> 00:45:34,122
automatic for years. You just

1075
00:45:34,122 --> 00:45:37,722
have to take a little. Little

1076
00:45:39,594 --> 00:45:40,695
bump. Okay. Okay. Make the

1077
00:45:40,695 --> 00:45:42,798
motion to move forward. She

1078
00:45:42,798 --> 00:45:46,398
didn't I'm sorry. Are you just

1079
00:45:46,868 --> 00:45:48,469
got started? Okay. I'm sure up

1080
00:45:48,469 --> 00:45:49,737
no. It's no, no. You can make

1081
00:45:49,737 --> 00:45:50,371
the motion. We understand the

1082
00:45:50,371 --> 00:45:51,390
directions. So what we're

1083
00:45:51,390 --> 00:45:52,674
going to bring this back to

1084
00:45:52,674 --> 00:45:53,575
the next meeting.

1085
00:45:53,575 --> 00:45:54,242
>> But we just wanted to make

1086
00:45:54,242 --> 00:45:55,911
sure that you all were okay

1087
00:45:55,911 --> 00:45:58,911
with model because this is

1088
00:45:59,214 --> 00:46:01,149
what will be following. You

1089
00:46:01,149 --> 00:46:01,716
got any about the appeal and I

1090
00:46:01,716 --> 00:46:02,450
were better. Are you

1091
00:46:02,450 --> 00:46:04,719
comfortable with it? You know,

1092
00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:05,319
this is a

1093
00:46:05,319 --> 00:46:05,988
>> when you work to for

1094
00:46:05,988 --> 00:46:08,988
somebody has your company a

1095
00:46:11,493 --> 00:46:13,428
comfortable all of this?

1096
00:46:13,428 --> 00:46:14,129
>> Are you all right? We are.

1097
00:46:14,129 --> 00:46:17,129
We cross this appeal process

1098
00:46:17,465 --> 00:46:19,340
is very clean. I mean, part of

1099
00:46:19,340 --> 00:46:20,350
the reason I think this is a

1100
00:46:20,350 --> 00:46:20,702
good ordinance is it is very

1101
00:46:20,702 --> 00:46:22,103
clear. You know, it says it

1102
00:46:22,103 --> 00:46:25,703
has to be filed in writing

1103
00:46:25,873 --> 00:46:26,941
within 10 days. And then, you

1104
00:46:26,941 --> 00:46:27,643
know, if it does, it's going

1105
00:46:27,643 --> 00:46:29,577
to be the special magistrate

1106
00:46:29,577 --> 00:46:30,245
show. It gives the special

1107
00:46:30,245 --> 00:46:32,580
magistrate also guidance as

1108
00:46:32,580 --> 00:46:34,482
well that this will be by him.

1109
00:46:34,482 --> 00:46:36,285
So I think it I think

1110
00:46:36,285 --> 00:46:36,952
appellate process is very good

1111
00:46:36,952 --> 00:46:37,652
in this ordinance depart. I

1112
00:46:37,652 --> 00:46:38,620
don't like about the payment

1113
00:46:38,620 --> 00:46:39,354
process is if they don't show

1114
00:46:39,354 --> 00:46:42,557
up, you still have to go

1115
00:46:42,557 --> 00:46:44,525
through all the motions. So if

1116
00:46:44,525 --> 00:46:46,361
you don't show up for small

1117
00:46:46,361 --> 00:46:47,290
claims court judge rules in my

1118
00:46:47,290 --> 00:46:47,696
favor. So why would you go

1119
00:46:47,696 --> 00:46:50,696
through all this process if

1120
00:46:55,937 --> 00:46:57,972
they don't show up? They did

1121
00:46:57,972 --> 00:46:58,707
written down down ways that

1122
00:46:58,707 --> 00:47:01,509
were never 12 where it is down

1123
00:47:01,509 --> 00:47:02,210
about have how iffy on appeal.

1124
00:47:02,210 --> 00:47:02,944
>> If they don't show up, the

1125
00:47:02,944 --> 00:47:04,179
county still has to go through

1126
00:47:04,179 --> 00:47:07,179
and present your case, right?

1127
00:47:08,216 --> 00:47:09,284
So if if they fail to attend

1128
00:47:09,284 --> 00:47:10,118
the magistrate reviews, the

1129
00:47:10,118 --> 00:47:10,819
evidence presented and

1130
00:47:10,819 --> 00:47:11,853
determines if it was properly

1131
00:47:11,853 --> 00:47:13,853
issued or not.

1132
00:47:15,724 --> 00:47:16,424
>> So if they can't come the

1133
00:47:16,424 --> 00:47:17,920
special magistrate still has

1134
00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:18,993
the evidence, which is the

1135
00:47:18,993 --> 00:47:20,195
video of the meeting right?

1136
00:47:20,195 --> 00:47:23,665
Even if they don't come to

1137
00:47:23,665 --> 00:47:27,502
speak why? Why do we get to If

1138
00:47:27,502 --> 00:47:28,737
you don't show up in court,

1139
00:47:28,737 --> 00:47:29,404
the judge does. It doesn't

1140
00:47:29,404 --> 00:47:30,720
make them present the case.

1141
00:47:30,720 --> 00:47:33,720
Said nobody's hear you. You

1142
00:47:33,107 --> 00:47:34,109
win. So why would we would we

1143
00:47:34,109 --> 00:47:37,709
have to county have to go.

1144
00:47:38,713 --> 00:47:39,414
Know that. Why would a special

1145
00:47:39,414 --> 00:47:42,414
measures said, you know, you

1146
00:47:47,722 --> 00:47:50,722
know, it's over. I understand.

1147
00:47:51,459 --> 00:47:52,127
I don't think that it's.

1148
00:47:52,127 --> 00:47:52,794
>> Particularly going to be

1149
00:47:52,794 --> 00:47:54,796
burdensome and that they're

1150
00:47:54,796 --> 00:47:56,731
already going to be there. So

1151
00:47:56,731 --> 00:47:57,432
we're going to already have

1152
00:47:57,432 --> 00:47:58,330
provided this information to

1153
00:47:58,330 --> 00:47:58,867
the special magistrate.

1154
00:47:58,867 --> 00:47:59,902
They're gonna have already

1155
00:47:59,902 --> 00:48:00,869
have it will already be that

1156
00:48:00,869 --> 00:48:03,471
we're all going to be there.

1157
00:48:03,471 --> 00:48:06,400
So for us, it's probably

1158
00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:09,640
faster and easier if we're the

1159
00:48:09,778 --> 00:48:10,446
only ones there.

1160
00:48:10,446 --> 00:48:13,816
>> And I think to to add to

1161
00:48:13,816 --> 00:48:14,783
that will be much the same as

1162
00:48:14,783 --> 00:48:17,183
you know, special magistrate

1163
00:48:17,285 --> 00:48:21,485
for a coat case. You have, you

1164
00:48:22,224 --> 00:48:23,559
know, you Violation coming

1165
00:48:23,559 --> 00:48:24,994
before the special magistrate

1166
00:48:24,994 --> 00:48:27,395
and you still have the code

1167
00:48:27,395 --> 00:48:28,620
officer present the file in

1168
00:48:28,620 --> 00:48:31,620
order for the magistrate to

1169
00:48:31,990 --> 00:48:32,934
make their finding. Even if

1170
00:48:32,934 --> 00:48:33,602
the person who is appealing

1171
00:48:33,602 --> 00:48:35,602
her challenging requesting

1172
00:48:40,209 --> 00:48:40,842
reduction has not.

1173
00:48:40,842 --> 00:48:41,543
>> Well, I want have ever

1174
00:48:41,543 --> 00:48:44,460
write this in time them. But

1175
00:48:44,460 --> 00:48:46,381
the ones are not. I want I

1176
00:48:46,381 --> 00:48:49,751
want to run a tight ship. This

1177
00:48:49,751 --> 00:48:51,751
one too.

1178
00:48:51,753 --> 00:48:53,322
>> We believe this one is very

1179
00:48:53,322 --> 00:48:54,220
tight. It's within the law and

1180
00:48:54,220 --> 00:48:54,723
again hasn't been challenged.

1181
00:48:54,723 --> 00:48:57,723
Commissioner, you want to go

1182
00:48:59,328 --> 00:48:59,962
be a motion?

1183
00:48:59,962 --> 00:49:02,497
>> Make a motion to move

1184
00:49:02,497 --> 00:49:03,298
forward with me with

1185
00:49:03,298 --> 00:49:05,298
trespassing ordinance as

1186
00:49:08,503 --> 00:49:09,772

1187
00:49:09,772 --> 00:49:12,172
>> And being advertised just

1188
00:49:13,308 --> 00:49:14,142
coming back into next meeting.

1189
00:49:14,142 --> 00:49:17,142
Have everything that you need

Nay motion carries

1196
00:49:24,519 --> 00:49:26,519
unanimously.

1197
00:49:28,157 --> 00:49:29,391
>> Okay. We have our ship.

1198
00:49:29,391 --> 00:49:32,391
Who's going to handle that

1199
00:49:39,635 --> 00:49:40,302
one? There she is. Pages that.

1200
00:49:40,302 --> 00:49:42,702
>> Good morning, Martin and

1201
00:49:44,607 --> 00:49:45,307
the commissioners and so. Our

1202
00:49:45,307 --> 00:49:47,707
new attorney 2 smiling faces

1203
00:49:50,712 --> 00:49:51,414
we've this better than before.

1204
00:49:51,414 --> 00:49:52,140
My name is Lee Seeker. Not on

1205
00:49:52,140 --> 00:49:54,140
the Affordable housing

1206
00:49:54,416 --> 00:49:56,816
coordinator for Okeechobee and

1207
00:49:58,687 --> 00:49:59,488
I am presenting today request

1208
00:49:59,488 --> 00:50:02,488
to approve are renewed. Al

1209
00:50:02,892 --> 00:50:03,592
have local housing assistant

1210
00:50:03,592 --> 00:50:05,127
plan.

1211
00:50:05,127 --> 00:50:07,127
>> For years 2025 through

1212
00:50:07,229 --> 00:50:08,898
2028. So every 3 years we have

1213
00:50:08,898 --> 00:50:13,980
to renew our local plan and it

1214
00:50:13,135 --> 00:50:13,803
is up for renewal now. So.

1215
00:50:13,803 --> 00:50:17,173
There are a couple of items

1216
00:50:17,173 --> 00:50:18,400
that have changed a little

1217
00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:20,400
bit.

1218
00:50:21,760 --> 00:50:21,743
>> One is disaster assistance.

1219
00:50:21,743 --> 00:50:23,743
>> Florida housing finance

1220
00:50:25,881 --> 00:50:26,916
recommended. An update on ours

1221
00:50:26,916 --> 00:50:28,917
because I just didn't have

1222
00:50:28,917 --> 00:50:32,287
very much detail to it. So

1223
00:50:32,287 --> 00:50:34,256
it's just an addition of more

1224
00:50:34,256 --> 00:50:34,957
items that we would be able to

1225
00:50:34,957 --> 00:50:37,957
assist with after a disaster

1226
00:50:38,527 --> 00:50:40,950
is declared. And then also

1227
00:50:40,950 --> 00:50:43,950
adding a new strategy for

1228
00:50:48,637 --> 00:50:49,272
property tax assistance. See?

1229
00:50:49,272 --> 00:50:50,600
Yes, sir. We talked about

1230
00:50:50,600 --> 00:50:52,908
before that. We didn't want to

1231
00:50:52,908 --> 00:50:54,609
allow.

1232
00:50:54,609 --> 00:50:55,311
>> First last and security

1233
00:50:55,311 --> 00:50:57,460
rental assistance or can see

1234
00:50:57,460 --> 00:50:57,746
it right now. But I found it a

1235
00:50:57,746 --> 00:51:00,116
couple of times in here where

1236
00:51:00,116 --> 00:51:02,218
it's still mentions that.

1237
00:51:02,218 --> 00:51:03,180
>> So it's just first in last,

1238
00:51:03,180 --> 00:51:06,180
no security deposit. Does say

1239
00:51:06,989 --> 00:51:07,957
it all in here. Are you

1240
00:51:07,957 --> 00:51:09,158
looking under the disaster

1241
00:51:09,158 --> 00:51:10,626
assistance area? Remember

1242
00:51:10,626 --> 00:51:11,260
where it was? But I found it a

1243
00:51:11,260 --> 00:51:14,860
couple of times and it is

1244
00:51:15,980 --> 00:51:16,980
great. I want ask about it.

1245
00:51:16,980 --> 00:51:20,298
Would we not be better for the

1246
00:51:22,271 --> 00:51:22,972
landlords protection and the

1247
00:51:22,972 --> 00:51:25,972
>> the last and the security

1248
00:51:26,275 --> 00:51:28,511
deposit. And then they. Glenn

1249
00:51:28,511 --> 00:51:29,178
got best chance of beating

1250
00:51:29,178 --> 00:51:32,178
scant and he's still we're

1251
00:51:32,448 --> 00:51:34,417
helping the people.

1252
00:51:34,417 --> 00:51:35,500
>> So we did a technical

1253
00:51:35,500 --> 00:51:37,986
revision on Happ back in

1254
00:51:37,986 --> 00:51:38,688
NOVEMBER. And so that item the

1255
00:51:38,688 --> 00:51:41,880
security deposit part portion

1256
00:51:42,625 --> 00:51:44,994
was taken out. So for rental

1257
00:51:44,994 --> 00:51:45,661
moving assistance, we moved

1258
00:51:45,661 --> 00:51:48,610
forward with just assisting

1259
00:51:48,898 --> 00:51:49,965
first and last month's rent

1260
00:51:49,965 --> 00:51:51,133
because if the tenant moves

1261
00:51:51,133 --> 00:51:52,468
out, they get that security

1262
00:51:52,468 --> 00:51:53,102
deposit back. So why are we

1263
00:51:53,102 --> 00:51:53,702
going to assist with that

1264
00:51:53,702 --> 00:51:56,702
portion of it? And then

1265
00:51:57,600 --> 00:51:58,307
they're liable to some form

1266
00:51:58,307 --> 00:52:00,707
of, you know, responsibility

1267
00:52:01,100 --> 00:52:03,179
on their part most time. And a

1268
00:52:03,179 --> 00:52:04,114
tenant moves out that deposits

1269
00:52:04,114 --> 00:52:04,781
held because they have repair

1270
00:52:04,781 --> 00:52:05,448
the house. That's what I'm

1271
00:52:05,448 --> 00:52:05,915
thinking is just to protect

1272
00:52:05,915 --> 00:52:07,915
our landlords.

1273
00:52:09,652 --> 00:52:10,319
>> You know? We know that they

1274
00:52:10,319 --> 00:52:13,189
need something in there. So

1275
00:52:13,189 --> 00:52:13,856
let them do that. First the

1276
00:52:13,856 --> 00:52:15,525
end, we help them with the

1277
00:52:15,525 --> 00:52:19,125
last in the security and then

1278
00:52:19,528 --> 00:52:20,530
it's a win-win for everyone.

1279
00:52:20,530 --> 00:52:21,864
And then that said most center

1280
00:52:21,864 --> 00:52:22,498
that house gets back in the

1281
00:52:22,498 --> 00:52:24,898
into the circulation for

1282
00:52:26,268 --> 00:52:28,268
another rental.

1283
00:52:29,205 --> 00:52:29,873
>> can change that to security

1284
00:52:29,873 --> 00:52:30,540
deposit mean that friend I

1285
00:52:30,540 --> 00:52:32,410
don't follow the commission

1286
00:52:32,410 --> 00:52:32,742
feel that we're not. But I

1287
00:52:32,742 --> 00:52:35,440
just think that's most thing

1288
00:52:35,440 --> 00:52:39,244
that we can do out there. So

1289
00:52:39,249 --> 00:52:41,351
we did also add in I'm sorry,

1290
00:52:41,351 --> 00:52:43,219
>> that I have to receive

1291
00:52:43,219 --> 00:52:43,886
notification from the

1292
00:52:43,886 --> 00:52:45,221
landlord. If I'm assisting

1293
00:52:45,221 --> 00:52:47,357
with MoveOn assistance that

1294
00:52:47,357 --> 00:52:49,259
they're up to terms on their

1295
00:52:49,259 --> 00:52:50,226
So that's something that

1296
00:52:50,226 --> 00:52:51,461
changes. Well, so people are

1297
00:52:51,461 --> 00:52:53,229
just moving out and leaving

1298
00:52:53,229 --> 00:52:55,598
their landlord high and dry

1299
00:52:55,598 --> 00:52:57,998
and trying receive assistance

1300
00:52:58,301 --> 00:52:59,402
to To explain what I'm talking

1301
00:52:59,402 --> 00:53:00,803
about, that there was a time

1302
00:53:00,803 --> 00:53:01,437
when we gave first last and

1303
00:53:01,437 --> 00:53:03,837
security. People moved in

1304
00:53:03,973 --> 00:53:05,174
without skin in the game.

1305
00:53:05,174 --> 00:53:05,875
>> So what I'm suggesting is

1306
00:53:05,875 --> 00:53:09,278
let which we said they could

1307
00:53:09,278 --> 00:53:10,312
do one of the 3. So if they do

1308
00:53:10,312 --> 00:53:12,281
first and we do blast and

1309
00:53:12,281 --> 00:53:14,681
security, then that helps

1310
00:53:14,684 --> 00:53:15,351
landlords position as we do it

1311
00:53:15,351 --> 00:53:17,487
last and security best and

1312
00:53:17,487 --> 00:53:18,755
security, they still do too.

1313
00:53:18,755 --> 00:53:19,422
They have to come up with a

1314
00:53:19,422 --> 00:53:21,190
first in if they move about

1315
00:53:21,190 --> 00:53:22,692
the landlord made somewhat

1316
00:53:22,692 --> 00:53:23,392
hole. They would put the house

1317
00:53:23,392 --> 00:53:26,620
back in circulation. You MAY

1318
00:53:26,620 --> 00:53:27,897
create more rentals. The

1319
00:53:27,897 --> 00:53:28,998
question people know they're

1320
00:53:28,998 --> 00:53:31,398
protected. Question on that.

1321
00:53:33,300 --> 00:53:33,670
If we do the security. And

1322
00:53:33,670 --> 00:53:34,370
everything's fine and they

1323
00:53:34,370 --> 00:53:36,839
don't need repairs with that

1324
00:53:36,839 --> 00:53:37,507
check. Be cut back to us ERs.

1325
00:53:37,507 --> 00:53:41,107
That check will go back to

1326
00:53:41,278 --> 00:53:44,278
that Renner. That they never

1327
00:53:44,313 --> 00:53:44,981
that's not their money. So you

1328
00:53:44,981 --> 00:53:45,715
can't secure it with right,

1329
00:53:45,715 --> 00:53:47,417
but that you've got to explain

1330
00:53:47,417 --> 00:53:48,840
that every single landlord,

1331
00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:51,210
it's almost better if we're

1332
00:53:51,210 --> 00:53:54,390
going to do too. To make them

1333
00:53:54,390 --> 00:53:55,859
do this. Security deposit.

1334
00:53:55,859 --> 00:53:57,294
Because part of their skin in

1335
00:53:57,294 --> 00:53:58,280
the game 5 don't tear this

1336
00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:00,463
house up on getting that money

1337
00:54:00,463 --> 00:54:03,566
back. Where is the first and

1338
00:54:03,566 --> 00:54:05,135
last Argonne? Regardless just

1339
00:54:05,135 --> 00:54:05,735
if the goal in this set their

1340
00:54:05,735 --> 00:54:08,735
listen. We all had this

1341
00:54:08,971 --> 00:54:09,673
conversation before.

1342
00:54:09,673 --> 00:54:10,373
>> And frankly, it made more

1343
00:54:10,373 --> 00:54:14,110
sense to me then that it does

1344
00:54:14,110 --> 00:54:16,512
now, which is sad. But no no,

1345
00:54:16,512 --> 00:54:17,180
which also was at the time

1346
00:54:17,180 --> 00:54:19,815
too, to have them have some

1347
00:54:19,815 --> 00:54:21,985
skin in the game. If the board

1348
00:54:21,985 --> 00:54:24,655
is wanting to approve 2. And I

1349
00:54:24,655 --> 00:54:25,421
would think the one that that

1350
00:54:25,421 --> 00:54:28,191
you would leave to the renter

1351
00:54:28,191 --> 00:54:30,293
would be the security deposit

1352
00:54:30,293 --> 00:54:31,194
just to not have a son that

1353
00:54:31,194 --> 00:54:34,194
nightmare what are we owed

1354
00:54:35,799 --> 00:54:37,799
$450 back from 37? 0, 8, North

1355
00:54:40,837 --> 00:54:41,537
West. 3rd or not, I a.

1356
00:54:41,537 --> 00:54:42,238
>> they making the landlords

1357
00:54:42,238 --> 00:54:44,808
got him an escrow account. So

1358
00:54:44,808 --> 00:54:46,209
that's not an issue. Maybe

1359
00:54:46,209 --> 00:54:46,876
they could keep the money and

1360
00:54:46,876 --> 00:54:47,843
what we have to track down

1361
00:54:47,843 --> 00:54:49,980
somebody on our staff. Right.

1362
00:54:49,980 --> 00:54:52,480
But it they move out without

1363
00:54:52,480 --> 00:54:54,170
paying. You can bet you go.

1364
00:54:54,170 --> 00:54:54,718
Spend $500 on the house. You

1365
00:54:54,718 --> 00:54:55,852
viewed you know, better than

1366
00:54:55,852 --> 00:54:58,540
that give because you've been

1367
00:54:58,540 --> 00:55:00,123
in you know, so I don't think

1368
00:55:00,123 --> 00:55:01,758
that's an issue. I just think

1369
00:55:01,758 --> 00:55:02,458
it's a way of helping the

1370
00:55:02,458 --> 00:55:03,160
landlord. But the house right

1371
00:55:03,160 --> 00:55:04,293
back out there in circulation

1372
00:55:04,293 --> 00:55:07,293
for semester at MR. CHAIRMAN.

1373
00:55:08,732 --> 00:55:12,932
Yes, sir. Is there a cap on

1374
00:55:13,690 --> 00:55:13,904
the security deposit?

1375
00:55:13,904 --> 00:55:16,304
>> So there's a Three-thousand

1376
00:55:17,341 --> 00:55:18,800
dollar cap on that assistance.

1377
00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:20,543
>> Okay. But there's no cap

1378
00:55:20,543 --> 00:55:20,910
per se on the security

1379
00:55:20,910 --> 00:55:21,611
deposit.

1380
00:55:21,611 --> 00:55:24,448
>> Well, at the moment we're

1381
00:55:24,448 --> 00:55:25,148
not paying security deposit so

1382
00:55:25,148 --> 00:55:28,148
first. And last month's rent

1383
00:55:30,987 --> 00:55:31,654
up to $3,000. I would say.

1384
00:55:31,654 --> 00:55:34,540
>> Been landlord many, many

1385
00:55:38,128 --> 00:55:38,762
times. I would say.

1386
00:55:38,762 --> 00:55:40,630
Commissioner Commissioner

1387
00:55:40,630 --> 00:55:42,733
Paisley said pay first and

1388
00:55:42,733 --> 00:55:45,133
last let them bees.

1389
00:55:45,402 --> 00:55:46,690
Responsible for the security

1390
00:55:46,690 --> 00:55:49,690
deposit, but kept the sure

1391
00:55:49,673 --> 00:55:50,373
cure deposit it $500 is

1392
00:55:50,373 --> 00:55:52,109
because somebody will try to

1393
00:55:52,109 --> 00:55:52,776
game the system. Some

1394
00:55:52,776 --> 00:55:55,776
landlords are going get you

1395
00:55:56,790 --> 00:55:56,679
said just the opposite of You

1396
00:55:56,679 --> 00:55:58,679
said what commissioner?

1397
00:56:00,284 --> 00:56:00,951
They're ok, well, governor on

1398
00:56:00,951 --> 00:56:01,651
commissioner not know what

1399
00:56:01,651 --> 00:56:02,385
say. They have no control of

1400
00:56:02,385 --> 00:56:05,385
his could positive for not

1401
00:56:06,356 --> 00:56:07,825
paying it, but that We don't

1402
00:56:07,825 --> 00:56:08,591
want control. I mean, we don't

1403
00:56:08,591 --> 00:56:09,293
want to give it. I'm just

1404
00:56:09,293 --> 00:56:12,893
saying that we should cap it.

1405
00:56:13,964 --> 00:56:16,650
If we're going to do do this.

1406
00:56:16,650 --> 00:56:18,101
If we kept it to where they

1407
00:56:18,101 --> 00:56:20,300
can sort of $1000 or $1500,

1408
00:56:20,300 --> 00:56:22,239
not our business, but we're

1409
00:56:22,239 --> 00:56:23,140
not paying. You just said they

1410
00:56:23,140 --> 00:56:25,410
first and last about security.

1411
00:56:25,410 --> 00:56:25,676
So we know that control of I

1412
00:56:25,676 --> 00:56:27,244
understand. But I mean, I

1413
00:56:27,244 --> 00:56:29,790
think we can still have

1414
00:56:29,790 --> 00:56:31,147
control over how much if

1415
00:56:31,147 --> 00:56:31,848
they're using are if they're

1416
00:56:31,848 --> 00:56:32,916
using an you're paying first

1417
00:56:32,916 --> 00:56:35,486
and last and not security. I

1418
00:56:35,486 --> 00:56:37,886
know But they're there.

1419
00:56:38,521 --> 00:56:39,556
They're getting fun from us

1420
00:56:39,556 --> 00:56:41,458
for first and last. But you

1421
00:56:41,458 --> 00:56:42,659
can't cry with open market

1422
00:56:42,659 --> 00:56:44,728
progress. Well, take away

1423
00:56:44,728 --> 00:56:45,429
their rights. You can pay

1424
00:56:45,429 --> 00:56:46,129
security if you won't do this

1425
00:56:46,129 --> 00:56:49,129
without paid the security in

1426
00:56:49,700 --> 00:56:50,401
the last. Either way and

1427
00:56:50,401 --> 00:56:51,680
taking really doesn't matter

1428
00:56:51,680 --> 00:56:55,673
to me if we want to do 2 of

1429
00:56:55,673 --> 00:56:56,973
the 3. I could care less.

1430
00:56:56,973 --> 00:56:58,775
Which 2 of the 3 I was just

1431
00:56:58,775 --> 00:56:59,476
going to say some paperwork

1432
00:56:59,476 --> 00:57:01,845
potentially. I just know one

1433
00:57:01,845 --> 00:57:02,579
of the big stumbling blocks

1434
00:57:02,579 --> 00:57:03,213
from people trying to get into

1435
00:57:03,213 --> 00:57:04,882
a place is playing first

1436
00:57:04,882 --> 00:57:07,282
lesson. Security could be 3,

1437
00:57:08,385 --> 00:57:11,385
$4,000. So I was just trying

1438
00:57:12,556 --> 00:57:13,256
to make it to where. Their

1439
00:57:13,256 --> 00:57:15,860
rent or pay security deposit.

1440
00:57:15,860 --> 00:57:16,594
So they would be more likely

1441
00:57:16,594 --> 00:57:18,328
to take care of it because are

1442
00:57:18,328 --> 00:57:20,328
getting there. Security

1443
00:57:21,231 --> 00:57:21,865
deposit back that. I mean,

1444
00:57:21,865 --> 00:57:22,967
that's that's the way I'm

1445
00:57:22,967 --> 00:57:24,368
looking at it, that they'll be

1446
00:57:24,368 --> 00:57:27,470
they'll have that skin in the

1447
00:57:27,470 --> 00:57:27,772
game. That's what it is right

1448
00:57:27,772 --> 00:57:28,638
now.

1449
00:57:28,638 --> 00:57:29,706
>> Okay. So we change that

1450
00:57:29,706 --> 00:57:30,708
back in NOVEMBER. So this

1451
00:57:30,708 --> 00:57:33,708
round of funding, that's the

1452
00:57:34,210 --> 00:57:34,945
way that it has been the

1453
00:57:34,945 --> 00:57:35,646
guidelines that But there's no

1454
00:57:35,646 --> 00:57:38,382
cap commissioner to cause no

1455
00:57:38,382 --> 00:57:39,917
cap, ok?

1456
00:57:39,917 --> 00:57:40,751
>> Is the security based on

1457
00:57:40,751 --> 00:57:43,151
one month's rent. Normally

1458
00:57:46,223 --> 00:57:49,823
normally a okay. If you have.

1459
00:57:50,360 --> 00:57:52,463
Last month's rent. And your

1460
00:57:52,463 --> 00:57:53,296
escrow account and you don't

1461
00:57:53,296 --> 00:57:54,970
collect rent and go to that

1462
00:57:54,970 --> 00:57:54,764
person say, hey, you know,

1463
00:57:54,764 --> 00:57:57,330
you're Stu. And they well,

1464
00:57:57,330 --> 00:57:58,201
we're moving now. At least you

1465
00:57:58,201 --> 00:57:58,869
have a couple weeks to

1466
00:57:58,869 --> 00:58:01,269
advertise maybe get another

1467
00:58:01,705 --> 00:58:04,705
runner at. What's nice about

1468
00:58:07,110 --> 00:58:08,946
last month. Yeah, right.

1469
00:58:08,946 --> 00:58:09,613
>> the try this war to you

1470
00:58:09,613 --> 00:58:12,130
said you, you're suggesting

1471
00:58:14,819 --> 00:58:17,421
the security and the last.

1472
00:58:17,421 --> 00:58:19,523
That if live in time when I

1473
00:58:19,523 --> 00:58:20,223
don't to I'm fine with that

1474
00:58:20,223 --> 00:58:24,270
because at the but I do think

1475
00:58:24,270 --> 00:58:24,695
are you suggesting that cap on

1476
00:58:24,695 --> 00:58:26,130
the security or no cast? I

1477
00:58:26,130 --> 00:58:26,831
don't think you can set case

1478
00:58:26,831 --> 00:58:30,431
open market. I don't want to

1479
00:58:31,135 --> 00:58:32,360
get big league. Well, what I

1480
00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:33,237
only reason I ask we pay with

1481
00:58:33,237 --> 00:58:35,205
that were paid, but we've got

1482
00:58:35,205 --> 00:58:36,107
3,000 Max's. We can do a case.

1483
00:58:36,107 --> 00:58:37,208
That's what the cap is for

1484
00:58:37,208 --> 00:58:39,210
that. That was my question.

1485
00:58:39,210 --> 00:58:40,444
Total for the are 2 payments

1486
00:58:40,444 --> 00:58:42,844
of the 3. Right. 3,000 total

1487
00:58:44,315 --> 00:58:45,116
Okay. I'm toy. So it's just to

1488
00:58:45,116 --> 00:58:45,816
the second in the in the the

1489
00:58:45,816 --> 00:58:48,816
security and then we're done

1490
00:58:50,120 --> 00:58:50,755
with it. And that be an

1491
00:58:50,755 --> 00:58:51,422
amendment on next year's

1492
00:58:51,422 --> 00:58:53,557
because this year's already

1493
00:58:53,557 --> 00:58:54,859
set for

1494
00:58:54,859 --> 00:58:55,593
>> So we have conditional

1495
00:58:55,593 --> 00:58:56,827
approval already from the

1496
00:58:56,827 --> 00:58:58,996
state for this one. But I can

1497
00:58:58,996 --> 00:58:59,630
still make changes soaker.

1498
00:58:59,630 --> 00:59:02,300
This doesn't expire until

1499
00:59:02,990 --> 00:59:03,434
JULY. 1st.

1500
00:59:03,434 --> 00:59:04,435
>> Okay. She's got some time

1501
00:59:04,435 --> 00:59:07,838
to make the change to. So got

1502
00:59:07,838 --> 00:59:08,806
a couple of 3,002 security, a

1503
00:59:08,806 --> 00:59:11,806
security deposit. And the last

1504
00:59:13,511 --> 00:59:14,245
is what made the motion on.

1505
00:59:14,245 --> 00:59:15,980
Motion by Commissioner Bo

1506
00:59:15,980 --> 00:59:18,380
second by Commissioner Summer.

1507
00:59:18,882 --> 00:59:21,282
>> Any further discussion? Go

1508
00:59:24,210 --> 00:59:25,322
along to. To get a little fall

1509
00:59:25,322 --> 00:59:26,230
on my sword for this. But I

1510
00:59:26,230 --> 00:59:27,358
still and I guess in my mind

1511
00:59:27,358 --> 00:59:29,758
think that the fa.

1512
00:59:30,695 --> 00:59:33,331
>> If actual Renner isn't it's

1513
00:59:33,331 --> 00:59:34,310
a responsible for the

1514
00:59:34,310 --> 00:59:34,765
security. They'll do a better

1515
00:59:34,765 --> 00:59:37,765
job, making sure it's returned

1516
00:59:39,503 --> 00:59:42,503
and or close to rentable

1517
00:59:43,508 --> 00:59:44,175
shape, go along with this.

1518
00:59:44,175 --> 00:59:47,175
>> If you fix that problem,

1519
00:59:48,479 --> 00:59:50,810
start doing rentals. Mean, I

1520
00:59:50,810 --> 00:59:50,714
rentals. I agree. Sitting

1521
00:59:50,714 --> 00:59:53,714
there looking out for the

1522
00:59:54,552 --> 00:59:56,387
landlord and and the and the

1523
00:59:56,387 --> 00:59:57,421
so I do have a selection on

1524
00:59:57,421 --> 00:59:59,958
this. If we are going to

1525
00:59:59,958 --> 01:00:00,625
assist with security deposit

1526
01:00:00,625 --> 01:00:01,359
in last month's rent, does

1527
01:00:01,359 --> 01:00:02,590
that mean the security deposit

1528
01:00:02,590 --> 01:00:04,862
is going to come back to the

1529
01:00:04,862 --> 01:00:06,862
county?

1530
01:00:07,932 --> 01:00:08,833
>> That's what I That would be

1531
01:00:08,833 --> 01:00:09,467
it. Yes, it was in the past

1532
01:00:09,467 --> 01:00:11,502
that it did not. When we

1533
01:00:11,502 --> 01:00:13,400
assisted with all 3.

1534
01:00:13,400 --> 01:00:14,672
>> So moving forward, is that

1535
01:00:14,672 --> 01:00:16,708
something that we want to

1536
01:00:16,708 --> 01:00:18,776
implement, that it comes back

1537
01:00:18,776 --> 01:00:19,910
to the county, money the

1538
01:00:19,910 --> 01:00:23,381
repairs So we need to make the

1539
01:00:23,381 --> 01:00:24,849
motion clear that

1540
01:00:24,849 --> 01:00:26,451
>> It's a second. Is going to

1541
01:00:26,451 --> 01:00:27,351
be the security deposit in the

1542
01:00:27,351 --> 01:00:28,850
last place. Security deposit

1543
01:00:28,850 --> 01:00:30,521
will be returned to the county

1544
01:00:30,521 --> 01:00:33,521
if they're okay. The amendment

1545
01:00:35,259 --> 01:00:35,893
by commissioner Burrows.

1546
01:00:35,893 --> 01:00:36,527
Deposit to return to the

1547
01:00:36,527 --> 01:00:38,529
county if not needed for

1548
01:00:38,529 --> 01:00:40,300
repairs. Can I get a second

1549
01:00:40,300 --> 01:00:42,660
second? All in favor of the

1550
01:00:42,660 --> 01:00:45,660
amendment say Aye. All opposed

1551
01:00:46,671 --> 01:00:50,271
nay. The motion as amended is

1552
01:00:50,641 --> 01:00:51,242
last and security and for the.

1553
01:00:51,242 --> 01:00:51,910
>> We the pause, it be

1554
01:00:51,910 --> 01:00:53,678
returned back to us if not

1555
01:00:53,678 --> 01:00:55,446
needed for repairs for the

1556
01:00:55,446 --> 01:00:56,213
landlord all in favor say Aye.

1557
01:00:56,213 --> 01:00:59,213
Aye. All opposed. Nay motion

1558
01:01:00,651 --> 01:01:02,651
carries unanimously. Attorney.

1559
01:01:09,270 --> 01:01:10,962
She didn't drown. Okay. It's

1560
01:01:10,962 --> 01:01:11,629
crushing. You can take the

1561
01:01:11,629 --> 01:01:14,629
next one. Sure. We've been

1562
01:01:15,900 --> 01:01:17,900
nice.

1563
01:01:18,369 --> 01:01:21,369
>> I not want to you

1564
01:01:23,740 --> 01:01:25,276
>> comment. All right. The we

1565
01:01:25,276 --> 01:01:26,444
recently amended the Land

1566
01:01:26,444 --> 01:01:28,444
Development regulations for

1567
01:01:29,413 --> 01:01:30,615
the review process for major

1568
01:01:30,615 --> 01:01:31,315
developments. The they will

1569
01:01:31,315 --> 01:01:33,318
now be reviewed by the board

1570
01:01:33,318 --> 01:01:34,180
of County commissioners. Some

1571
01:01:34,180 --> 01:01:35,190
major developments will go to

1572
01:01:35,190 --> 01:01:36,988
the site Plan Review

1573
01:01:36,988 --> 01:01:37,688
Committee. They'll make a

1574
01:01:37,688 --> 01:01:38,356
recommendation. The Planning

1575
01:01:38,356 --> 01:01:39,657
Board independent board to

1576
01:01:39,657 --> 01:01:40,625
make a recommendation to the

1577
01:01:40,625 --> 01:01:42,625
county commissioners. That's

1578
01:01:44,229 --> 01:01:44,929
site plan final form the

1579
01:01:44,929 --> 01:01:45,597
board, one of the opportunity

1580
01:01:45,597 --> 01:01:47,732
to look at some site plans

1581
01:01:47,732 --> 01:01:50,732
little bit earlier in the

1582
01:01:51,350 --> 01:01:52,737
process. So the thought to

1583
01:01:52,737 --> 01:01:53,471
come up with for that was a to

1584
01:01:53,471 --> 01:01:54,172
become does not require

1585
01:01:54,172 --> 01:01:56,172
pre-application meeting that

1586
01:01:59,644 --> 01:02:00,245
lot of places do.

1587
01:02:00,245 --> 01:02:00,979
Pre-application meeting

1588
01:02:00,979 --> 01:02:01,612
generally is is the first time

1589
01:02:01,612 --> 01:02:04,120
the developer showing the

1590
01:02:05,416 --> 01:02:06,117
jurisdiction. The county,

1591
01:02:06,117 --> 01:02:06,851
their basic planned a little

1592
01:02:06,851 --> 01:02:08,153
more conceptual. You have an

1593
01:02:08,153 --> 01:02:11,255
idea of what you want to do,

1594
01:02:11,255 --> 01:02:12,123
but you haven't done all heavy

1595
01:02:12,123 --> 01:02:13,358
engineering yet. So a process

1596
01:02:13,358 --> 01:02:15,426
could be for major

1597
01:02:15,426 --> 01:02:17,395
developments require the

1598
01:02:17,395 --> 01:02:18,429
pre-application meeting. The

1599
01:02:18,429 --> 01:02:20,398
first going to committee and

1600
01:02:20,398 --> 01:02:21,332
then it would still go to the

1601
01:02:21,332 --> 01:02:22,330
board of County commissioners,

1602
01:02:22,330 --> 01:02:24,603
more dust as the part of the

1603
01:02:24,603 --> 01:02:25,303
pre-application process. Given

1604
01:02:25,303 --> 01:02:25,937
opportunity to see it before

1605
01:02:25,937 --> 01:02:29,107
before a lot of the heavy

1606
01:02:29,107 --> 01:02:29,808
engineering done. And then

1607
01:02:29,808 --> 01:02:30,542
with whoever Gretchen, the

1608
01:02:30,542 --> 01:02:34,110
board has they would finish up

1609
01:02:34,110 --> 01:02:34,613
the full set of plans. Go back

1610
01:02:34,613 --> 01:02:35,179
to the center Committee

1611
01:02:35,179 --> 01:02:37,179
Planning Board County

1612
01:02:40,885 --> 01:02:41,552
Commission. So you have The

1613
01:02:41,552 --> 01:02:43,655
new application now you can

1614
01:02:43,655 --> 01:02:44,255
check the box either.

1615
01:02:44,255 --> 01:02:46,255
>> Preliminary or final

1616
01:02:48,393 --> 01:02:49,460
correct?

1617
01:02:49,460 --> 01:02:50,595
>> Yeah, but we probably

1618
01:02:50,595 --> 01:02:52,564
change the wording on the

1619
01:02:52,564 --> 01:02:54,799
little bit so that it's it's

1620
01:02:54,799 --> 01:02:55,233
clear that it is a pre

1621
01:02:55,233 --> 01:02:55,934
application.

1622
01:02:55,934 --> 01:02:58,103
>> But what MAY come pull him

1623
01:02:58,103 --> 01:03:01,103
under? I'm asking I'm be

1624
01:03:02,807 --> 01:03:04,776
difficult.

1625
01:03:04,776 --> 01:03:07,278
>> You know, you get into some

1626
01:03:07,278 --> 01:03:08,120
semantics pre application.

1627
01:03:08,120 --> 01:03:10,412
Before now, formal application

1628
01:03:11,820 --> 01:03:11,783
has been submitted.

1629
01:03:11,783 --> 01:03:12,884
Preliminaries service started

1630
01:03:12,884 --> 01:03:14,884
application process.

1631
01:03:14,919 --> 01:03:17,122
Ultimately, it doesn't matter

1632
01:03:17,122 --> 01:03:18,223
as long as the the developers

1633
01:03:18,223 --> 01:03:19,223
know what that means. We're

1634
01:03:19,223 --> 01:03:20,158
looking for what stage. It

1635
01:03:20,158 --> 01:03:21,192
doesn't matter what we call

1636
01:03:21,192 --> 01:03:21,859
it. So you could live with

1637
01:03:21,859 --> 01:03:22,994
what you would have on your

1638
01:03:22,994 --> 01:03:25,730
application. Yeah. Okay. Do we

1639
01:03:25,730 --> 01:03:26,498
have a fee schedule for this?

1640
01:03:26,498 --> 01:03:29,467
No, we do not have an

1641
01:03:29,467 --> 01:03:30,168
additional fee for We have a

1642
01:03:30,168 --> 01:03:33,168
patient comes how we're going

1643
01:03:34,205 --> 01:03:37,205
handle this. We'll ask for

1644
01:03:38,900 --> 01:03:41,900
donations. So have we don't

1645
01:03:44,449 --> 01:03:45,717
handle Chair good amendment to

1646
01:03:45,717 --> 01:03:47,752
I think that if the board

1647
01:03:47,752 --> 01:03:49,488
agrees to this process that

1648
01:03:49,488 --> 01:03:50,923
will go back and look at our

1649
01:03:50,923 --> 01:03:51,623
fee think bring the fee

1650
01:03:51,623 --> 01:03:52,123
schedule back. We'll see what

1651
01:03:52,123 --> 01:03:54,123
the costs are.

1652
01:03:55,994 --> 01:03:56,661
>> And I don't want to.

1653
01:03:56,661 --> 01:03:57,296
>> Burton anyone, but mean,

1654
01:03:57,296 --> 01:04:00,896
there's got to be cost of

1655
01:04:01,660 --> 01:04:01,599
doing business. MR. CHAIRMAN.

1656
01:04:01,599 --> 01:04:02,300
Yes, sir.

1657
01:04:02,300 --> 01:04:06,500
>> hate to tell I hate to say

1658
01:04:07,105 --> 01:04:07,805
this. I really do. What you're

1659
01:04:07,805 --> 01:04:10,805
doing here is probably going

1660
01:04:12,100 --> 01:04:15,214
to be short lived. Comes to or

1661
01:04:15,214 --> 01:04:15,914
remind yourself of that, ok,

1662
01:04:15,914 --> 01:04:16,848
that what you're doing here.

1663
01:04:16,848 --> 01:04:20,986
Whether or not he does of the

1664
01:04:20,986 --> 01:04:21,720
are not fee. This is the this

1665
01:04:21,720 --> 01:04:22,387
potentially has the ability to

1666
01:04:22,387 --> 01:04:25,387
be short-lived by JULY one.

1667
01:04:27,625 --> 01:04:28,293
Okay. We'll get to JULY. He

1668
01:04:28,293 --> 01:04:31,830
can do about the JULY. But

1669
01:04:31,830 --> 01:04:33,665
after that time we have a

1670
01:04:33,665 --> 01:04:34,399
different will have some

1671
01:04:34,399 --> 01:04:35,990
potentially different ways to

1672
01:04:35,990 --> 01:04:35,801
do And you want elaborate on

1673
01:04:35,801 --> 01:04:39,401
why you think this can happen

1674
01:04:40,105 --> 01:04:42,141
is for them due to fact that

1675
01:04:42,141 --> 01:04:45,177
we have 2 bills in the House

1676
01:04:45,177 --> 01:04:46,979
and the Senate are moving very

1677
01:04:46,979 --> 01:04:47,646
rapidly that they development

1678
01:04:47,646 --> 01:04:50,148
or developer what about the

1679
01:04:50,148 --> 01:04:52,417
shoes? A developer, for

1680
01:04:52,417 --> 01:04:53,151
example, we'll be able to come

1681
01:04:53,151 --> 01:04:56,151
in for large developments. And

1682
01:04:56,421 --> 01:05:00,426
and not have to go through all

1683
01:05:00,426 --> 01:05:01,293
of these processes, MR. Roy's

1684
01:05:01,293 --> 01:05:03,561
would be he would be the way

1685
01:05:03,561 --> 01:05:05,463
we did administrative

1686
01:05:05,463 --> 01:05:06,931
approval. And we look at it

1687
01:05:06,931 --> 01:05:07,665
from the state way. It's

1688
01:05:07,665 --> 01:05:10,665
presented that MR. Roy's would

1689
01:05:10,903 --> 01:05:12,571
be providing that opportunity

1690
01:05:12,571 --> 01:05:14,539
to agree that the development

1691
01:05:14,539 --> 01:05:15,207
is right. So you kind of

1692
01:05:15,207 --> 01:05:18,207
review. Remove all of these

1693
01:05:18,910 --> 01:05:19,678
reviews. To some degree that

1694
01:05:19,678 --> 01:05:20,345
it's still in the process of

1695
01:05:20,345 --> 01:05:23,345
being the sausage is still

1696
01:05:24,583 --> 01:05:25,250
being made. We're still we

1697
01:05:25,250 --> 01:05:27,185
haven't got sausage Stewart

1698
01:05:27,185 --> 01:05:30,785
Udall put Pepper in. I don't

1699
01:05:30,889 --> 01:05:33,759
but in it. But we're trying to

1700
01:05:33,759 --> 01:05:34,693
fight. We're trying to be in

1701
01:05:34,693 --> 01:05:35,727
next week and we're going to

1702
01:05:35,727 --> 01:05:38,727
try work with Senator McLean

1703
01:05:40,265 --> 01:05:41,600
on us. And we got lobbyists

1704
01:05:41,600 --> 01:05:42,335
that are working on a fact

1705
01:05:42,335 --> 01:05:43,680
lobbyists. I got this small

1706
01:05:43,680 --> 01:05:45,468
coalition lobbyists working on

1707
01:05:46,806 --> 01:05:48,390
it, but I think that the

1708
01:05:48,390 --> 01:05:50,342
developers have a lot of money

1709
01:05:50,342 --> 01:05:53,942
and they look and the bottom

1710
01:05:54,460 --> 01:05:55,247
line, what we've been told. Is

1711
01:05:55,247 --> 01:05:57,647
that they're tired dealing

1712
01:05:57,984 --> 01:05:58,650
with the they can pay enough

1713
01:05:58,650 --> 01:06:00,486
money to the legislators in

1714
01:06:00,486 --> 01:06:01,186
order to get get the bill

1715
01:06:01,186 --> 01:06:03,586
created unchanged. Love They

01:06:11,296 --> 01:06:13,399
looks like. I'm just kind of

1720
01:06:13,399 --> 01:06:15,467
give just inside too. When

1721
01:06:15,467 --> 01:06:16,669
we're talking about the fees

1722
01:06:16,669 --> 01:06:17,870

1724
01:06:21,140 --> 01:06:21,807

Sorry. I got to keep up here.

1884
01:12:15,562 --> 01:12:16,229
He was still trying rep your

>> To after public hearing.

1899
01:12:51,698 --> 01:12:52,432
Removing the language in

1900
01:12:52,432 --> 01:12:55,432
Section j that I discussed

1901
01:12:56,436 --> 01:12:57,270
previously about the Publix

1902
01:12:57,270 --> 01:12:58,271
hearings have to be placed on

1903
01:12:58,271 --> 01:12:58,939
the consent agenda for

1904
01:12:58,939 --> 01:13:01,939
inclusion for the next day

1905
01:13:02,420 --> 01:13:02,909
because there's no.

1906
01:13:02,909 --> 01:13:04,511
>> State law or any law that

1907
01:13:04,511 --> 01:13:06,680
requires that that was just

1908
01:13:06,680 --> 01:13:08,680
the previous commission.

1909
01:13:09,983 --> 01:13:12,152
>> Have put on there and that

1910
01:13:12,152 --> 01:13:13,620
talking about delays so that

1911
01:13:13,620 --> 01:13:16,589
can delay ordinance is being

1912
01:13:16,589 --> 01:13:18,892
presented to you that are non

1913
01:13:18,892 --> 01:13:19,626
zoning ordinances because

1914
01:13:19,626 --> 01:13:22,260
Zonings ordinances didn't have

1915
01:13:22,863 --> 01:13:24,965
that same requirement. And

1916
01:13:24,965 --> 01:13:26,267
then just the consistency of

1917
01:13:26,267 --> 01:13:26,967
addressing what the speaker

1918
01:13:26,967 --> 01:13:29,536
cards are actually called. So

1919
01:13:29,536 --> 01:13:32,539
they we had a different terms

1920
01:13:32,539 --> 01:13:34,207
that we call it that. So.

1921
01:13:34,207 --> 01:13:36,207
>> If there are

1922
01:13:40,280 --> 01:13:42,680
>> Any questions or comments.

1923
01:13:44,317 --> 01:13:46,860
Administrator yes, sir. And I

1924
01:13:46,860 --> 01:13:49,860
asked this question for the

1925
01:13:50,230 --> 01:13:53,230
sake of people watching Only

1926
01:13:54,261 --> 01:13:54,995
only underwear. I'm sure my

1927
01:13:54,995 --> 01:13:55,696
question, I guess, is supposed

1928
01:13:55,696 --> 01:13:59,296
to the attorneys. This is all

1929
01:13:59,666 --> 01:14:02,666
been fitted. We're doesn't run

1930
01:14:02,903 --> 01:14:03,504
afoul of any state or federal

1931
01:14:03,504 --> 01:14:05,504
laws Constitution First

1932
01:14:05,706 --> 01:14:09,243
Amendment. I mean, this is all

1933
01:14:09,243 --> 01:14:10,344
been vetted and we have.

1934
01:14:10,344 --> 01:14:13,944
PRESIDENT To to stand on. Yes,

1935
01:14:18,552 --> 01:14:19,253
sir. Okay is is State law? I

1936
01:14:19,253 --> 01:14:22,122
mean because from every part

1937
01:14:22,122 --> 01:14:23,857
of this was a state. State law

1938
01:14:23,857 --> 01:14:27,457
that we were making or it

1939
01:14:28,128 --> 01:14:28,696
hearing too.

1940
01:14:28,696 --> 01:14:30,696
>> The administrative

1941
01:14:32,266 --> 01:14:34,666
regulation is compliant both

1942
01:14:35,369 --> 01:14:36,336
with the general protections

1943
01:14:36,336 --> 01:14:37,571
afforded sprees. Free speech

1944
01:14:37,571 --> 01:14:39,406
under the First Amendment of

1945
01:14:39,406 --> 01:14:40,340
the United States Constitution

1946
01:14:40,340 --> 01:14:41,800
as well as Florida's

1947
01:14:41,800 --> 01:14:41,542
government and the Sunshine

1948
01:14:41,542 --> 01:14:43,942
Law and the Florida

1949
01:14:45,746 --> 01:14:46,130
Constitution. I just wanted

1950
01:14:46,130 --> 01:14:46,713
to.

1951
01:14:46,713 --> 01:14:47,414
>> Like I said, those mostly

1952
01:14:47,414 --> 01:14:48,115
for people are watching this

1953
01:14:48,115 --> 01:14:51,618
on the Internet and make sure

1954
01:14:51,618 --> 01:14:52,686
that we have. You we have

1955
01:14:52,686 --> 01:14:55,686
vetted the legalities of this

1956
01:14:58,926 --> 01:14:59,426
and the lesser chance of

1957
01:14:59,426 --> 01:15:00,610
lawsuits. That's

1958
01:15:00,610 --> 01:15:00,694
>> and chair. If I could

1959
01:15:00,694 --> 01:15:03,694
address that a little bit

1960
01:15:04,465 --> 01:15:06,865
further whenever we there's

1961
01:15:07,301 --> 01:15:08,569
requirements for notices and

1962
01:15:08,569 --> 01:15:10,504
some some notices you just

1963
01:15:10,504 --> 01:15:11,839
have to put in the bulletin

1964
01:15:11,839 --> 01:15:12,873
board or somewhere, you know,

1965
01:15:12,873 --> 01:15:14,740
at your facility. And our

1966
01:15:14,740 --> 01:15:16,878
meetings. We just have to put

1967
01:15:16,878 --> 01:15:19,646
those when it comes to public

1968
01:15:19,646 --> 01:15:22,583
hearings, those we have to

1969
01:15:22,583 --> 01:15:23,750
after ties. And so we

1970
01:15:23,750 --> 01:15:25,652
advertised that they begin at

1971
01:15:25,652 --> 01:15:26,487
9 o'clock. But, you know, we

1972
01:15:26,487 --> 01:15:27,187
try to keep them shortly after

1973
01:15:27,187 --> 01:15:30,787
their. So as we were looking

1974
01:15:31,425 --> 01:15:33,460
at this ordinance and how we

1975
01:15:33,460 --> 01:15:35,529
had 4 made formatted our

1976
01:15:35,529 --> 01:15:37,465
regular meeting. We just felt

1977
01:15:37,465 --> 01:15:38,199
that this was more appropriate

1978
01:15:38,199 --> 01:15:38,866
since our public hearings are

1979
01:15:38,866 --> 01:15:41,735
advertised in the paper to

1980
01:15:41,735 --> 01:15:44,735
begin at 9 o'clock. And then

1981
01:15:45,500 --> 01:15:45,705
the public comments can come

1982
01:15:45,705 --> 01:15:46,340
after that. And there's some

1983
01:15:46,340 --> 01:15:48,740
other regulations to, you

1984
01:15:49,543 --> 01:15:50,144
know, we talk in our and are

1985
01:15:50,144 --> 01:15:52,790
decorum policy and also

1986
01:15:52,790 --> 01:15:54,790
administer regulations that

1987
01:15:54,381 --> 01:15:55,916
the public comments need to be

1988
01:15:55,916 --> 01:15:57,184
near the beginning of the

1989
01:15:57,184 --> 01:15:59,453
meeting, but it cannot be the

1990
01:15:59,453 --> 01:16:00,354
last item on the agenda says

1991
01:16:00,354 --> 01:16:01,540
that was my next follow-up

1992
01:16:01,540 --> 01:16:01,689
because I know that there was

1993
01:16:01,689 --> 01:16:03,689
some.

1994
01:16:04,725 --> 01:16:05,659
>> There was some.

1995
01:16:05,659 --> 01:16:08,659
>> Legality or some law that

1996
01:16:10,970 --> 01:16:11,298
we couldn't not have a public

1997
01:16:11,298 --> 01:16:12,233
comment and it had to be I

1998
01:16:12,233 --> 01:16:12,934
thought had to be towards the

1999
01:16:12,934 --> 01:16:13,634
front of the meeting, but it

2000
01:16:13,634 --> 01:16:16,340
really doesn't matter. Just

2001
01:16:17,380 --> 01:16:20,380
can't be at the end.

2002
01:16:21,175 --> 01:16:23,575
>> Current ordinance that the

2003
01:16:25,479 --> 01:16:26,180
board decorum. The current

2004
01:16:26,180 --> 01:16:28,580
ordinance they're asking are

2005
01:16:32,720 --> 01:16:33,788
the governing the to Carmen

2006
01:16:33,788 --> 01:16:34,855
Citizen participation

2007
01:16:34,855 --> 01:16:36,991
prescribes that the public

2008
01:16:36,991 --> 01:16:37,691
comment needs to be near the

2009
01:16:37,691 --> 01:16:39,861
beginning of the meeting and

2010
01:16:39,861 --> 01:16:40,895
shall not be the last.

2011
01:16:40,895 --> 01:16:41,996
>> Part of what we are

2012
01:16:41,996 --> 01:16:42,896
cleaning up in the ordinance

2013
01:16:42,896 --> 01:16:45,366
that will be before you for

2014
01:16:45,366 --> 01:16:48,202
hearing at the next board of

2015
01:16:48,202 --> 01:16:50,104
County commissioners meeting

2016
01:16:50,104 --> 01:16:51,972
is to make that less

2017
01:16:51,972 --> 01:16:52,673
prescriptive in order to allow

2018
01:16:52,673 --> 01:16:54,673
flexibility within the

2019
01:16:55,109 --> 01:16:55,843
administrative regulation. If

2020
01:16:55,843 --> 01:16:57,345
for whatever reason you on you

2021
01:16:57,345 --> 01:16:59,345
to move that.

2022
01:17:00,314 --> 01:17:01,549
>> And just just to close the

2023
01:17:01,549 --> 01:17:02,883
loop. So we talked about there

2024
01:17:02,883 --> 01:17:03,584
are items that the public, the

2025
01:17:03,584 --> 01:17:06,584
public has people to comment

2026
01:17:06,921 --> 01:17:07,822
on items on the agenda, open

2027
01:17:07,822 --> 01:17:10,758
public forum about items that

2028
01:17:10,758 --> 01:17:11,959
are within your purview. The

2029
01:17:11,959 --> 01:17:12,660
that's the distinction. So

2030
01:17:12,660 --> 01:17:13,661
they do still need to be able

2031
01:17:13,661 --> 01:17:17,261
to comment on items on the

2032
01:17:20,268 --> 01:17:20,601
agenda. And It's just. Where

2033
01:17:20,601 --> 01:17:21,302
it is.

2034
01:17:21,302 --> 01:17:23,337
>> Well, and it's always been

2035
01:17:23,337 --> 01:17:24,772
is always held that if

2036
01:17:24,772 --> 01:17:25,373
somebody came before for

2037
01:17:25,373 --> 01:17:27,773
public comment and they

2038
01:17:27,808 --> 01:17:28,476
started commenting on.

2039
01:17:28,476 --> 01:17:29,177
Something that was later on

2040
01:17:29,177 --> 01:17:32,777
the agenda, we will say, you

2041
01:17:32,813 --> 01:17:33,781
know, sir, ma'am, could you

2042
01:17:33,781 --> 01:17:36,718
please hold your comment until

2043
01:17:36,718 --> 01:17:37,418
that until issue was before

2044
01:17:37,418 --> 01:17:38,953
And that's always been that's

2045
01:17:38,953 --> 01:17:41,953
always been a prescribed in

2046
01:17:41,956 --> 01:17:44,759
our public comment. But just

2047
01:17:44,759 --> 01:17:46,994
just making sure that we're

2048
01:17:46,994 --> 01:17:48,229
suit of armor on for this.

2049
01:17:48,229 --> 01:17:50,629
Thank you, commissioner. We

2050
01:17:57,205 --> 01:17:59,605
do. The questions. Comments.

2051
01:18:01,943 --> 01:18:06,130
We need a motion to so moved.

2052
01:18:06,130 --> 01:18:08,130

You need a ok?

2141
01:22:08,824 --> 01:22:12,424
>> Sorry, I send to tell all

2142
01:22:12,928 --> 01:22:15,630
of security me. It was not for

2143
01:22:15,630 --> 01:22:16,298
this meeting joking. Want to

2144
01:22:16,298 --> 01:22:17,265
live here she thought that

2145
01:22:17,265 --> 01:22:17,933
what I asked her to pray for

2146
01:22:17,933 --> 01:22:21,533
me was for this meeting and

2147
01:22:24,673 --> 01:22:28,177
it's not. So I was confused.

2148
01:22:28,177 --> 01:22:31,777
She so fishy oh, okay. MISS

2149
01:22:34,950 --> 01:22:37,719
Them. Give this year. Yes, I

2150
01:22:37,719 --> 01:22:38,354
have one item and that is

2151
01:22:38,354 --> 01:22:40,489
George Landry the county

2152
01:22:40,489 --> 01:22:41,156
administrator from Port St.

2153
01:22:41,156 --> 01:22:43,156
Lucie County.

2154
01:22:44,590 --> 01:22:47,659
>> And has reached out to sea.

2155
01:22:47,663 --> 01:22:48,363
The 3 other counties that

2156
01:22:48,363 --> 01:22:50,763
participate with the medical

2157
01:22:52,734 --> 01:22:54,636
examiner's costs and have

2158
01:22:54,636 --> 01:22:55,838
asked for negotiations that

2159
01:22:55,838 --> 01:22:56,538
there is that the county

2160
01:22:56,538 --> 01:22:58,938
administrators and one board

2161
01:23:03,379 --> 01:23:05,680
member. Meet to negotiate the

2162
01:23:05,680 --> 01:23:06,315
The meeting is Friday, APRIL

2163
01:23:06,315 --> 01:23:08,383
25th. It would have to be

2164
01:23:08,383 --> 01:23:10,386
before 2 o'clock because at 2

2165
01:23:10,386 --> 01:23:11,860
o'clock, the medical examiner

2166
01:23:11,860 --> 01:23:14,860
will probably be with myself

2167
01:23:14,756 --> 01:23:17,560
and some of the and the other

2168
01:23:17,560 --> 01:23:18,793
as we discuss the budgets

2169
01:23:18,793 --> 01:23:19,795
because that is the afternoon

2170
01:23:19,795 --> 01:23:21,630
and the 25th 10 from 2 to 5 is

2171
01:23:21,630 --> 01:23:23,665
some budget that they want to

2172
01:23:23,665 --> 01:23:26,665
try negotiate a salary. Yes,

2173
01:23:29,872 --> 01:23:30,506
so there was whenever the

2174
01:23:30,506 --> 01:23:31,173
recommendation came back

2175
01:23:31,173 --> 01:23:32,474
before the board, that was

2176
01:23:32,474 --> 01:23:36,674
just to see if the board was

2177
01:23:37,460 --> 01:23:38,130
in agreement and increasing

2178
01:23:38,130 --> 01:23:42,213
the salary up to the think it

2179
01:23:44,653 --> 01:23:46,689
was 495,000 and so on one of

2180
01:23:46,689 --> 01:23:47,890
the county's boards wanted to

2181
01:23:47,890 --> 01:23:50,890
negotiate. And so that's why

2182
01:23:51,727 --> 01:23:53,662
now it's coming back for

2183
01:23:53,662 --> 01:23:54,430
representative and a

2184
01:23:54,430 --> 01:23:56,732
commissioner for from each of

2185
01:23:56,732 --> 01:23:57,399
the 4 counties too, to

2186
01:23:57,399 --> 01:23:59,799
negotiate with the medical

2187
01:24:03,372 --> 01:24:04,974
examiner. So we don't have a

2188
01:24:04,974 --> 01:24:06,876
final cost. A final salary. I

2189
01:24:06,876 --> 01:24:09,110
should say of final salary for

2190
01:24:09,110 --> 01:24:10,980
her position because that was

2191
01:24:10,980 --> 01:24:11,647
a study that was provided to

2192
01:24:11,647 --> 01:24:14,182
give you a maxim to to show

2193
01:24:14,182 --> 01:24:17,530
you what the study is showing.

2194
01:24:17,530 --> 01:24:17,753
Right in the study shows 4.95

2195
01:24:17,753 --> 01:24:20,753
correct. And she's got offers

2196
01:24:23,559 --> 01:24:24,226
from. Of the places. Yes,

2197
01:24:24,226 --> 01:24:26,626
we're one county's. Where's

2198
01:24:27,897 --> 01:24:30,897
the logic? Yeah. So absolutely

2199
01:24:32,201 --> 01:24:32,901
there appears that.

2200
01:24:32,901 --> 01:24:35,304
>> One county did not get all

2201
01:24:35,304 --> 01:24:36,138
the information that we had.

2202
01:24:36,138 --> 01:24:39,738
And that one county has now

2203
01:24:39,975 --> 01:24:40,776
raised the question. To we

2204
01:24:40,776 --> 01:24:44,976
need to sit down with her and

2205
01:24:45,810 --> 01:24:45,781
negotiator salary. In other

2206
01:24:45,781 --> 01:24:46,415
words, 3 of the county's did

2207
01:24:46,415 --> 01:24:47,490
what we did. But the one

2208
01:24:47,490 --> 01:24:50,490
county didn't get all the

2209
01:24:51,253 --> 01:24:52,922
information. And so now that

2210
01:24:52,922 --> 01:24:54,323
commission has race. That

2211
01:24:54,323 --> 01:24:57,323
answer, maybe we don't agree

2212
01:24:57,660 --> 01:25:00,660
that we need to negotiate.

2213
01:25:02,364 --> 01:25:03,980
Right guests and she.

2214
01:25:03,980 --> 01:25:05,534
>> And there was a negotiation

2215
01:25:05,534 --> 01:25:06,268
process that needed to happen

2216
01:25:06,268 --> 01:25:07,737
anyway. It's just that instead

2217
01:25:07,737 --> 01:25:08,704
of just Port St. Lucie County,

2218
01:25:08,704 --> 01:25:09,905
which I would imagine because

2219
01:25:09,905 --> 01:25:12,905
they they're the ones that

2220
01:25:13,843 --> 01:25:15,350
have facilitated this. Now it

2221
01:25:15,350 --> 01:25:16,645
will be a representative from

2222
01:25:16,645 --> 01:25:17,246
each county. That's that's

2223
01:25:17,246 --> 01:25:19,246
participating with the

2224
01:25:20,490 --> 01:25:23,180
negotiation for the salary. So

2225
01:25:23,180 --> 01:25:26,618
when when we doing this? And

2226
01:25:27,957 --> 01:25:28,591
it is. I haven't heard back.

2227
01:25:28,591 --> 01:25:30,293
The recommendation in the

2228
01:25:30,293 --> 01:25:33,262
letter is Friday. APRIL 25th.

2229
01:25:33,262 --> 01:25:33,963
He said it in a tough any time

2230
01:25:33,963 --> 01:25:37,563
that I responded back to that

2231
01:25:38,701 --> 01:25:40,536
we have. Budget meetings in

2232
01:25:40,536 --> 01:25:41,538
the afternoon meeting with

2233
01:25:41,538 --> 01:25:43,172
19th Judicial Court system,

2234
01:25:43,172 --> 01:25:45,407
the medical examiner, all

2235
01:25:45,407 --> 01:25:46,542
those other guardian ad litem

2236
01:25:46,542 --> 01:25:49,542
and it's actually over its

2237
01:25:50,246 --> 01:25:50,980
Port St. Lucie County as well.

2238
01:25:50,980 --> 01:25:52,382
So and the medical examiner is

2239
01:25:52,382 --> 01:25:53,490
one of those. So she's would

2240
01:25:53,490 --> 01:25:56,649
have to be in the 2 o'clock

2241
01:25:57,954 --> 01:25:58,854
meeting. So had recommended

2242
01:25:58,854 --> 01:26:01,854
the morning any time before. 2

2243
01:26:02,358 --> 01:26:02,958
o'clock on the 25th.

2244
01:26:02,958 --> 01:26:03,927
Commissioner bows. Been

2245
01:26:03,927 --> 01:26:05,927
working this.

2246
01:26:07,930 --> 01:26:10,990
>> What was your What we need

2247
01:26:10,990 --> 01:26:12,101
to do? I think it's probably

2248
01:26:12,101 --> 01:26:13,350
appropriate. Do the fact of

2249
01:26:13,350 --> 01:26:13,702
what the information that

2250
01:26:13,702 --> 01:26:16,102
administrator allowed me to

2251
01:26:17,106 --> 01:26:18,941
understand the other day. If

2252
01:26:18,941 --> 01:26:19,909
you want me to be on to do

2253
01:26:19,909 --> 01:26:20,576
that, I'll be happy to do it

2254
01:26:20,576 --> 01:26:22,178
or you can do it or anybody

2255
01:26:22,178 --> 01:26:24,213
else. That's what she started

2256
01:26:24,213 --> 01:26:24,947
asking is who do you want? Is

2257
01:26:24,947 --> 01:26:27,347
the commissioner to represent?

2258
01:26:28,751 --> 01:26:30,119
It was hurt.

2259
01:26:30,119 --> 01:26:32,922
>> From a boat. You been

2260
01:26:32,922 --> 01:26:33,622
involved in it. Everything we

2261
01:26:33,622 --> 01:26:37,822
do. I would ask you if you'd

2262
01:26:39,729 --> 01:26:40,629
be so good is to do it. That's

2263
01:26:40,629 --> 01:26:41,297
be we got hear over over I

2264
01:26:41,297 --> 01:26:43,466
would imagine at St. Louis

2265
01:26:43,466 --> 01:26:46,350
County. You like going in

2266
01:26:46,350 --> 01:26:49,350
knowing him. Just doesn't make

2267
01:26:54,440 --> 01:26:57,440
a difference. Nobody knows ok?

2268
01:26:58,140 --> 01:27:01,614
What that? That would be it.

2269
01:27:03,953 --> 01:27:04,687
MR. Nelson. Yes, Sir. I've got

2270
01:27:04,687 --> 01:27:08,887
a few things for Let me bring

2271
01:27:08,925 --> 01:27:09,592
up a couple of. Papers. And

2272
01:27:09,592 --> 01:27:10,860
this is in regards to so we

2273
01:27:10,860 --> 01:27:15,600
move. I want to get this out

2274
01:27:25,809 --> 01:27:27,809
there.

2275
01:27:44,600 --> 01:27:46,329
So I wanted to bring up

2276
01:27:46,329 --> 01:27:46,963
I've met with the supervised

2277
01:27:46,963 --> 01:27:49,265
elections after our last

2278
01:27:49,265 --> 01:27:49,899
meeting. We've had a couple of

2279
01:27:49,899 --> 01:27:51,201
>> a couple of different

2280
01:27:51,201 --> 01:27:54,237
times. We've been to the site

2281
01:27:54,237 --> 01:27:56,473
done a preliminary drawing

2282
01:27:56,473 --> 01:27:57,207
based off of the discussions

2283
01:27:57,207 --> 01:28:00,207
that myself and the supervisor

2284
01:28:00,276 --> 01:28:02,379
of elections have had with

2285
01:28:02,379 --> 01:28:03,113
that, I've put together a

2286
01:28:03,113 --> 01:28:04,780
proposed costs for the

2287
01:28:04,780 --> 01:28:05,548
renovations and tear

2288
01:28:05,548 --> 01:28:08,548
innovation and the front of

2289
01:28:09,419 --> 01:28:10,520
the building to be painted.

2290
01:28:10,520 --> 01:28:12,489
Those costs are in there.

2291
01:28:12,489 --> 01:28:13,223
Sorry, I gave away all my

2292
01:28:13,223 --> 01:28:16,325
papers. I think it ended up

2293
01:28:16,325 --> 01:28:17,527
around $86,000 in total

2294
01:28:17,527 --> 01:28:19,362
construction costs. That space

2295
01:28:19,362 --> 01:28:20,530
is the space that I have

2296
01:28:20,530 --> 01:28:22,999
provided you in the drawings

2297
01:28:22,999 --> 01:28:23,700
gives you an exact site

2298
01:28:23,700 --> 01:28:26,636
utilization for the space, so

2299
01:28:26,636 --> 01:28:27,337
he would be occupying at the

2300
01:28:27,337 --> 01:28:29,737
Alderman building along with

2301
01:28:30,440 --> 01:28:31,640
the layout and design the

2302
01:28:31,640 --> 01:28:33,810
majority of what we're looking

2303
01:28:33,810 --> 01:28:36,980
at in here. It's not really a

2304
01:28:36,980 --> 01:28:37,714
lot of of actual moving of

2305
01:28:37,714 --> 01:28:40,114
laws. Construction cost things

2306
01:28:41,918 --> 01:28:42,652
like that. Most of it is just

2307
01:28:42,652 --> 01:28:43,319
cosmetic renovations of things

2308
01:28:43,319 --> 01:28:46,356
that need to be approved in

2309
01:28:46,356 --> 01:28:46,923
the building. Of course, with

2310
01:28:46,923 --> 01:28:49,323
the numbers I've I've

2311
01:28:49,659 --> 01:28:50,326
provided. Thank Of course,

2312
01:28:50,326 --> 01:28:53,326
with the numbers I have

2313
01:28:55,598 --> 01:28:56,399
provided we do have a

2314
01:28:56,399 --> 01:28:57,200
significant amount of labor

2315
01:28:57,200 --> 01:28:57,834
that's in there. And the main

2316
01:28:57,834 --> 01:29:00,834
intention is to have the

2317
01:29:01,170 --> 01:29:01,838
majority of the work handle

2318
01:29:01,838 --> 01:29:02,539
the facilities, maintenance

2319
01:29:02,539 --> 01:29:04,641
staff because a lot of it is

2320
01:29:04,641 --> 01:29:05,609
stuff that our staff can do.

2321
01:29:05,609 --> 01:29:06,309
So I just wanted to bring that

2322
01:29:06,309 --> 01:29:09,309
up that we're we're intention

2323
01:29:10,847 --> 01:29:14,447
is to be below the $80,860 for

2324
01:29:14,818 --> 01:29:15,485
total construction cost, but

2325
01:29:15,485 --> 01:29:16,152
just wanted the board to be

2326
01:29:16,152 --> 01:29:17,120
aware, looking for a little

2327
01:29:17,120 --> 01:29:18,870
bit more direction. If you

2328
01:29:18,870 --> 01:29:18,788
know, I would love to see all

2329
01:29:18,788 --> 01:29:20,323
the commissioners come out.

2330
01:29:20,323 --> 01:29:22,559
Look at the facility. Look at

2331
01:29:22,559 --> 01:29:23,660
the building. Get an idea of

2332
01:29:23,660 --> 01:29:25,962
the space that so he wanting

2333
01:29:25,962 --> 01:29:26,663
to utilize. And I think it

2334
01:29:26,663 --> 01:29:29,663
would be the best utilization

2335
01:29:30,167 --> 01:29:32,803
of the space met with Ajax,

2336
01:29:32,803 --> 01:29:33,403
which is the current occupant

2337
01:29:33,403 --> 01:29:34,704
of that space. They are

2338
01:29:34,704 --> 01:29:35,872
willing to move to the real

2339
01:29:35,872 --> 01:29:38,872
building until the finish of

2340
01:29:39,910 --> 01:29:42,112
their contract for short term.

2341
01:29:42,112 --> 01:29:43,112
That's a very minimal cost to

2342
01:29:43,112 --> 01:29:46,583
us to do that. We've got to

2343
01:29:46,583 --> 01:29:47,484
pay to have their That's it.

2344
01:29:47,484 --> 01:29:48,151
So it's a very minimal cost

2345
01:29:48,151 --> 01:29:50,551
facilities would handle the

2346
01:29:51,688 --> 01:29:52,956
rest of that move for them. So

2347
01:29:52,956 --> 01:29:53,857
you're not just looking for a

2348
01:29:53,857 --> 01:29:55,580
little bit more direction from

2349
01:29:55,580 --> 01:29:56,559
the board on that to kind of

2350
01:29:56,559 --> 01:29:59,730
how we would like to proceed.

2351
01:29:59,730 --> 01:30:01,798
i would really like to start

2352
01:30:01,798 --> 01:30:04,635
something saying. I said the

2353
01:30:04,635 --> 01:30:05,602
moneys budgeted. We did have

2354
01:30:05,602 --> 01:30:08,200
200,000 the We've still got

2355
01:30:08,238 --> 01:30:08,938
about one, 98 and some change

2356
01:30:08,938 --> 01:30:12,538
in that budget after we moved

2357
01:30:13,343 --> 01:30:14,440
all of cip. So we used a very

2358
01:30:14,440 --> 01:30:15,112
minimal amount of that budget

2359
01:30:15,112 --> 01:30:18,548
to do what we what plan of

2360
01:30:18,548 --> 01:30:21,548
moving all 3 once the full

2361
01:30:22,219 --> 01:30:22,920
moves done, I will have some

2362
01:30:22,920 --> 01:30:24,455
expenses for the movement of

2363
01:30:24,455 --> 01:30:26,156
the other system. County

2364
01:30:26,156 --> 01:30:27,240
administrator and then a

2365
01:30:27,240 --> 01:30:29,526
conference room wall that will

2366
01:30:29,526 --> 01:30:30,727
have to be built. But it's

2367
01:30:30,727 --> 01:30:32,495
it's minimal. So I think in my

2368
01:30:32,495 --> 01:30:33,864
in my opinion, I think this is

2369
01:30:33,864 --> 01:30:37,464
the best move for the county.

2370
01:30:39,169 --> 01:30:40,204
Just knew. Ajax's using all

2371
01:30:40,204 --> 01:30:41,939
this space currently

2372
01:30:41,939 --> 01:30:42,639
yesterday. This is just the

2373
01:30:42,639 --> 01:30:43,306
space the Ajax utilizing. It

2374
01:30:43,306 --> 01:30:44,908
is time that you've got to

2375
01:30:44,908 --> 01:30:45,676
wait to then move out

2376
01:30:45,676 --> 01:30:46,410
correctness or what they're

2377
01:30:46,410 --> 01:30:48,511
looking to the I mean, yes, we

2378
01:30:48,511 --> 01:30:49,780
but we would move them now as

2379
01:30:49,780 --> 01:30:51,682
soon as the board gives me

2380
01:30:51,682 --> 01:30:54,685
direction, that this is a good

2381
01:30:54,685 --> 01:30:55,685
way to We would put them my

2382
01:30:55,685 --> 01:30:56,753
old Spacey. At the real

2383
01:30:56,753 --> 01:30:57,755
building and that Lisa, you

2384
01:30:57,755 --> 01:31:00,691
said you can move supervisor

2385
01:31:00,691 --> 01:31:01,691
to for now We're talk about

2386
01:31:01,691 --> 01:31:03,660
leaving the situation anything

2387
01:31:03,660 --> 01:31:04,862
because MISTER Nice Candy game

2388
01:31:04,862 --> 01:31:05,963
finished. Her staff goes. She

2389
01:31:05,963 --> 01:31:07,664
didn't have Yes, sir. But the

2390
01:31:07,664 --> 01:31:08,264
problem I have is is the

2391
01:31:08,264 --> 01:31:09,166
state.

2392
01:31:09,166 --> 01:31:12,166
>> To move so equipment that

2393
01:31:12,169 --> 01:31:14,370
has been made by the state.

2394
01:31:14,370 --> 01:31:14,704
That's a 90 day process to get

2395
01:31:14,704 --> 01:31:17,104
that equipment moved. We've

2396
01:31:17,640 --> 01:31:18,375
been working with the state. I

2397
01:31:18,375 --> 01:31:20,677
it departments to working with

2398
01:31:20,677 --> 01:31:21,411
the state along with so we to

2399
01:31:21,411 --> 01:31:23,313
get the stuff that state has

2400
01:31:23,313 --> 01:31:24,140
to move, that we cannot move

2401
01:31:24,140 --> 01:31:27,284
and that could take up to 90

2402
01:31:27,284 --> 01:31:27,818
days. The problem I have is if

2403
01:31:27,818 --> 01:31:30,218
we move them there

2404
01:31:30,988 --> 01:31:31,521
temporarily. We could be up to

2405
01:31:31,521 --> 01:31:32,989
90 days. If I start

2406
01:31:32,989 --> 01:31:33,690
construction now I can have

2407
01:31:33,690 --> 01:31:36,900
this project finished within

2408
01:31:36,160 --> 01:31:39,160
90 to 120 days and that then

2409
01:31:39,597 --> 01:31:41,997
done the final. Construction

2410
01:31:45,102 --> 01:31:48,239
is done. So he's moving wants.

2411
01:31:48,239 --> 01:31:48,939
>> MR. So you think you

2412
01:31:48,939 --> 01:31:49,640
answered my questions. Start

2413
01:31:49,640 --> 01:31:50,407
because I knew there was just

2414
01:31:50,407 --> 01:31:52,807
number of 200,000 was floating

2415
01:31:54,440 --> 01:31:54,644
around last last meeting. So I

2416
01:31:54,644 --> 01:31:55,346
think you answered the

2417
01:31:55,346 --> 01:31:55,980
question now is to to release

2418
01:31:55,980 --> 01:31:56,647
an out on this one here.

2419
01:31:56,647 --> 01:31:59,470
You're going to use 80,000

2420
01:32:00,551 --> 01:32:01,252
really 81,000 just how do

2421
01:32:01,252 --> 01:32:03,652
round numbers 81,000 in order

2422
01:32:06,123 --> 01:32:08,258
to get them over there? What?

2423
01:32:08,258 --> 01:32:10,194
So how many months to we still

2424
01:32:10,194 --> 01:32:11,461
have on the regional list

2425
01:32:11,461 --> 01:32:12,596
leases a 10 month supply if

2426
01:32:12,596 --> 01:32:13,297
I'm correct on that.

2427
01:32:13,297 --> 01:32:15,166
Yesterday's around 10 months,

2428
01:32:15,166 --> 01:32:16,733
10 months that what what

2429
01:32:16,733 --> 01:32:17,401
number?

2430
01:32:17,401 --> 01:32:19,336
>> Our total cost with that

2431
01:32:19,336 --> 01:32:22,336
with our contribution to the

2432
01:32:22,406 --> 01:32:24,442
taxes and maintenance costs.

2433
01:32:24,442 --> 01:32:25,142
As about 35,000 a rents 24 and

2434
01:32:25,142 --> 01:32:25,843
some change. We pay the taxes

2435
01:32:25,843 --> 01:32:29,443
on that building and then our

2436
01:32:30,147 --> 01:32:32,147
maintenance and fees.

2437
01:32:32,249 --> 01:32:33,484
>> So you talk about 3 roughly

2438
01:32:33,484 --> 01:32:35,180
3,000 a month. So we're going

2439
01:32:35,180 --> 01:32:37,521
to say 30th out. There's

2440
01:32:37,521 --> 01:32:38,222
$30,000 leaving or excuse me,

2441
01:32:38,222 --> 01:32:41,222
not savings so. You're going

2442
01:32:45,663 --> 01:32:47,598
to So moving them over there.

2443
01:32:47,598 --> 01:32:50,330
And so how was it take to get

2444
01:32:50,330 --> 01:32:51,535
this done? I'm hoping between

2445
01:32:51,535 --> 01:32:52,736
90 to 120 days. I'm shooting

2446
01:32:52,736 --> 01:32:54,438
for 90 days. Is that within

2447
01:32:54,438 --> 01:32:55,339
the 90 days at state make do

2448
01:32:55,339 --> 01:32:58,420
that I have to give the state

2449
01:32:58,420 --> 01:32:59,376
a new address.

2450
01:32:59,376 --> 01:33:01,450
>> Before the state will even

2451
01:33:01,450 --> 01:33:01,779
put it in the process to move

2452
01:33:01,779 --> 01:33:04,779
the equipment that state has

2453
01:33:05,749 --> 01:33:06,850
to So question is. But then

2454
01:33:06,850 --> 01:33:09,520
the 120 days, the 90 days for

2455
01:33:09,520 --> 01:33:10,788
the state is incorporated.

2456
01:33:10,788 --> 01:33:11,455
Yes, sir. Yes, sir. We would

2457
01:33:11,455 --> 01:33:12,957
want to have direction from

2458
01:33:12,957 --> 01:33:13,691
the board. If this is the

2459
01:33:13,691 --> 01:33:14,391
direction we're going, I would

2460
01:33:14,391 --> 01:33:16,828
go ahead. Put in that request

2461
01:33:16,828 --> 01:33:17,461
for the state to move

2462
01:33:17,461 --> 01:33:20,461
equipment. It's got to be

2463
01:33:22,433 --> 01:33:25,433
mayor. I'm okay with MR.

2464
01:33:26,537 --> 01:33:28,537
CHAIRMAN.

2465
01:33:28,706 --> 01:33:29,807
>> Justin guests are with the

2466
01:33:29,807 --> 01:33:31,676
driver used to be is that can

2467
01:33:31,676 --> 01:33:32,376
be just booked a flight itself

2468
01:33:32,376 --> 01:33:33,770
as a bit. Won't be a

2469
01:33:33,770 --> 01:33:33,744
drive-thru. There won't be a

2470
01:33:33,744 --> 01:33:35,480
drive-thru there more. That

2471
01:33:35,480 --> 01:33:36,147
will the ballot storage room.

2472
01:33:36,147 --> 01:33:39,116
Okay? Because it would be a

2473
01:33:39,116 --> 01:33:41,419
conflict. Yes. What goes on an

2474
01:33:41,419 --> 01:33:42,153
alleyway now? Yes, sir. We

2475
01:33:42,153 --> 01:33:43,921
will be blocking that off with

2476
01:33:43,921 --> 01:33:44,621
cars you see in that and the

2477
01:33:44,621 --> 01:33:45,289
design that that window been

2478
01:33:45,289 --> 01:33:47,689
blocking all those present

2479
01:33:49,960 --> 01:33:50,761
included. It's right here. But

2480
01:33:50,761 --> 01:33:53,761
he sure didn't show anything

2481
01:33:54,732 --> 01:33:58,332
there. Yeah. Because a lot of

2482
01:33:59,804 --> 01:34:00,671
people use it. Texas has a

2483
01:34:00,671 --> 01:34:02,172
part of the building used to

2484
01:34:02,172 --> 01:34:02,873
back not Don't come through

2485
01:34:02,873 --> 01:34:03,573
that. That access. They just

2486
01:34:03,573 --> 01:34:07,440
partnered use the back of the

2487
01:34:07,440 --> 01:34:08,879
building for access to go

2488
01:34:08,879 --> 01:34:10,214
today to to get answer to go

2489
01:34:10,214 --> 01:34:11,949
there. And that helps because

2490
01:34:11,949 --> 01:34:13,217
it you're voting. People can

2491
01:34:13,217 --> 01:34:14,719
park in the front and yes, it

2492
01:34:14,719 --> 01:34:18,319
will use another part of the

2493
01:34:19,524 --> 01:34:20,224
can park in the axis. In many

2494
01:34:20,224 --> 01:34:23,224
more questions about a good.

2495
01:34:24,194 --> 01:34:28,394
But this. I'm good Yeah, I am.

2496
01:34:30,200 --> 01:34:31,502
I have one question. Okay. One

2497
01:34:31,502 --> 01:34:32,169
bathroom that's just one

2498
01:34:32,169 --> 01:34:35,169
bathroom right now. Is that

2499
01:34:36,473 --> 01:34:37,108
enough for?

2500
01:34:37,108 --> 01:34:37,808
>> There is sorry to

2501
01:34:37,808 --> 01:34:40,808
interrupt. But if the hallway

2502
01:34:41,779 --> 01:34:45,379
that goes down. There's set of

2503
01:34:45,784 --> 01:34:46,650
public bathrooms in that

2504
01:34:46,650 --> 01:34:47,885
hallway. And once I meet with

2505
01:34:47,885 --> 01:34:48,753
the sheriff's department about

2506
01:34:48,753 --> 01:34:51,153
where exactly that that

2507
01:34:52,256 --> 01:34:53,357
doorway needs to be in hall,

2508
01:34:53,357 --> 01:34:54,325
then we would know how we

2509
01:34:54,325 --> 01:34:55,326
would access that is. But as

2510
01:34:55,326 --> 01:34:55,894
of now, there's one ad a

2511
01:34:55,894 --> 01:34:58,294
bathroom. This in ada

2512
01:34:58,429 --> 01:34:59,730
compliant bathroom. Now we

2513
01:34:59,730 --> 01:35:01,332
will be doing some renovations

2514
01:35:01,332 --> 01:35:04,332
in that bathroom. Just freshen

2515
01:35:04,335 --> 01:35:05,436
it up. But there would be 2

2516
01:35:05,436 --> 01:35:06,700
more a men's and a women's

2517
01:35:06,700 --> 01:35:07,739
bathroom. That's in that

2518
01:35:07,739 --> 01:35:10,375
hallway that we utilize now

2519
01:35:10,375 --> 01:35:12,577
for staff and public restrooms

2520
01:35:12,577 --> 01:35:13,611
for Ajax. So I'm I'm assuming

2521
01:35:13,611 --> 01:35:15,313
that that shouldn't be an

2522
01:35:15,313 --> 01:35:15,947
issue. But I will be meeting

2523
01:35:15,947 --> 01:35:17,182
with sheriff's department

2524
01:35:17,182 --> 01:35:17,849
staff to discuss the location

2525
01:35:17,849 --> 01:35:19,170
of the door. That's at the

2526
01:35:19,170 --> 01:35:22,170
beginning of that corridor. If

2527
01:35:22,153 --> 01:35:22,954
we could move that door back.

2528
01:35:22,954 --> 01:35:23,555
To the back section because

2529
01:35:23,555 --> 01:35:25,955
most the sheriff from

2530
01:35:26,290 --> 01:35:27,592
interstate a rear anyways that

2531
01:35:27,592 --> 01:35:29,327
would give us complete public

2532
01:35:29,327 --> 01:35:31,950
access to those 2 bathrooms.

2533
01:35:31,950 --> 01:35:31,996
Also, I just want to put that

2534
01:35:31,996 --> 01:35:32,697
in there in case it would only

2535
01:35:32,697 --> 01:35:36,100
be for staff to utilize that

2536
01:35:36,100 --> 01:35:38,360
instead of the public. So as

2537
01:35:38,360 --> 01:35:38,903
of right now, the way it lays

2538
01:35:38,903 --> 01:35:39,638
the public bathroom would be

2539
01:35:39,638 --> 01:35:42,638
that bathroom. That's and that

2540
01:35:43,740 --> 01:35:45,376
front space. That you see. MR.

2541
01:35:45,376 --> 01:35:47,776
CHAIRMAN yesterday Justin and

2542
01:35:48,179 --> 01:35:48,980
put you on the

2543
01:35:48,980 --> 01:35:49,681
>> on the front burner on this

2544
01:35:49,681 --> 01:35:52,684
now to make a decision right

2545
01:35:52,684 --> 01:35:53,418
here. Pros. But I'd like you

2546
01:35:53,418 --> 01:35:55,220
to have to be thinking to make

2547
01:35:55,220 --> 01:35:57,188
us a recommendation on what to

2548
01:35:57,188 --> 01:36:00,788
do with the real Luis, whether

2549
01:36:02,360 --> 01:36:03,610
we should. Not renew could go

2550
01:36:03,610 --> 01:36:06,661
month to month if we're not

2551
01:36:07,465 --> 01:36:09,834
quite finished with them.

2552
01:36:09,834 --> 01:36:10,568
Ajax, you using it. But I'd

2553
01:36:10,568 --> 01:36:14,168
like to kind of start thinking

2554
01:36:14,239 --> 01:36:16,975
about that. And was the room,

2555
01:36:16,975 --> 01:36:17,676
no room to spare yesterday us

2556
01:36:17,676 --> 01:36:18,376
doing at the last minute. If

2557
01:36:18,376 --> 01:36:20,110
you don't mind, please, yes,

2558
01:36:20,110 --> 01:36:21,212
sir. And I think we'll look at

2559
01:36:21,212 --> 01:36:21,979
that will go back and assess

2560
01:36:21,979 --> 01:36:24,181
if we need to keep that

2561
01:36:24,181 --> 01:36:25,150
building. But I think the main

2562
01:36:25,150 --> 01:36:28,119
intention is to try to get rid

2563
01:36:28,119 --> 01:36:29,153
of that to get rid of that

2564
01:36:29,153 --> 01:36:29,854
cost is one of the reasons why

2565
01:36:29,854 --> 01:36:33,257
I think that's the most sense

2566
01:36:33,257 --> 01:36:34,359
to So we to this location.

2567
01:36:34,359 --> 01:36:35,260
>> good thing is in the in the

2568
01:36:35,260 --> 01:36:38,563
long term with we have this

2569
01:36:38,563 --> 01:36:39,264
location as we grow. And as

2570
01:36:39,264 --> 01:36:42,264
the sheriff's starts to move

2571
01:36:43,101 --> 01:36:45,169
into their new snore, spaces,

2572
01:36:45,169 --> 01:36:46,304
it So we too new to grow as

2573
01:36:46,304 --> 01:36:47,973
needed and plus, move other

2574
01:36:47,973 --> 01:36:48,973
departments into that facility

2575
01:36:48,973 --> 01:36:50,375
if needed. So I think in the

2576
01:36:50,375 --> 01:36:52,777
long term we we would

2577
01:36:52,777 --> 01:36:55,177
probably. Terminate that lease

2578
01:36:56,647 --> 01:36:57,448
at the end of its term, which

2579
01:36:57,448 --> 01:36:58,182
with the time we have left

2580
01:36:58,182 --> 01:37:01,786
with Ajax is going to be about

2581
01:37:01,786 --> 01:37:03,540
the end of that term. But if

2582
01:37:03,540 --> 01:37:03,655
we look for other spaces are

2583
01:37:03,655 --> 01:37:04,555
think we need any other

2584
01:37:04,555 --> 01:37:06,955
additional spaces, then we

2585
01:37:07,225 --> 01:37:10,825
with look at that. Before we

2586
01:37:10,895 --> 01:37:11,662
terminate that lease. And then

2587
01:37:11,662 --> 01:37:12,363
when had 10 months left on

2588
01:37:12,363 --> 01:37:14,763
yes, sir, about 10 months.

2589
01:37:19,370 --> 01:37:19,738
Okay. Yeah. And so the but

2590
01:37:19,738 --> 01:37:22,738
it's slipped my mind. There's

2591
01:37:24,609 --> 01:37:25,310
talk time.

2592
01:37:25,310 --> 01:37:26,812
>> On on. Didn't did we have

2593
01:37:26,812 --> 01:37:28,130
to do something to the roof of

2594
01:37:28,130 --> 01:37:28,880
the over in building is that

2595
01:37:28,880 --> 01:37:30,615
eventually we were we are

2596
01:37:30,615 --> 01:37:31,482
going to need to replace the

2597
01:37:31,482 --> 01:37:32,117
roof. I often building and I'm

2598
01:37:32,117 --> 01:37:34,418
working through some cost

2599
01:37:34,418 --> 01:37:35,521
estimates right now.

2600
01:37:35,521 --> 01:37:36,188
>> To try to get that probably

2601
01:37:36,188 --> 01:37:37,188
won't go in our next budget

2602
01:37:37,188 --> 01:37:41,260
year, but it will go into the

2603
01:37:41,260 --> 01:37:42,360
to the next. So we're looking

2604
01:37:42,360 --> 01:37:43,270
at getting some cost

2605
01:37:43,270 --> 01:37:44,463
estimates, actually, just a

2606
01:37:44,463 --> 01:37:46,463
couple different design

2607
01:37:46,564 --> 01:37:47,299
options to put that is a

2608
01:37:47,299 --> 01:37:49,699
single membrane roof instead

2609
01:37:50,268 --> 01:37:51,870
of being what it is now. It's

2610
01:37:51,870 --> 01:37:52,537
a it's a gravel and part-time

2611
01:37:52,537 --> 01:37:55,537
reach system out there. Now

2612
01:37:55,607 --> 01:37:56,241
we're looking at some tapered

2613
01:37:56,241 --> 01:37:58,476
iso and going to a single

2614
01:37:58,476 --> 01:37:59,143
membrane type or if so at that

2615
01:37:59,143 --> 01:38:01,513
point, we've got a 50 year

2616
01:38:01,513 --> 01:38:02,146
route from that facility.

2617
01:38:02,146 --> 01:38:04,546
>> then that was another

2618
01:38:05,984 --> 01:38:07,318
suggestion. I was But it's a

2619
01:38:07,318 --> 01:38:08,200
flat roof in that. Yes, there

2620
01:38:08,200 --> 01:38:08,787
a slight root system. So you

2621
01:38:08,787 --> 01:38:10,550
have to frame it up. If you

2622
01:38:10,550 --> 01:38:11,656
want to put men on additional,

2623
01:38:11,656 --> 01:38:14,826
it would be it would be very

2624
01:38:14,826 --> 01:38:15,526
costly to do that. And I think

2625
01:38:15,526 --> 01:38:16,228
with that we have the gutter

2626
01:38:16,228 --> 01:38:16,929
system and everything that's

2627
01:38:16,929 --> 01:38:18,830
inside the facility now still

2628
01:38:18,830 --> 01:38:19,464
in great shape.

2629
01:38:19,464 --> 01:38:20,632
>> Those pipes have been

2630
01:38:20,632 --> 01:38:23,320
painted multiple times over

2631
01:38:23,101 --> 01:38:23,835
the years. So mainly now it's

2632
01:38:23,835 --> 01:38:25,537
just looking at putting

2633
01:38:25,537 --> 01:38:26,271
probably a tape or die. So in

2634
01:38:26,271 --> 01:38:29,174
a single membrane type or just

2635
01:38:29,174 --> 01:38:29,874
a moment, ok? Thank you, sir,

2636
01:38:29,874 --> 01:38:30,608
and appreciate all you do. We

2637
01:38:30,608 --> 01:38:33,800
do appreciate appreciate that.

2638
01:38:36,514 --> 01:38:38,349
Thank you. So everybody's good

2639
01:38:38,349 --> 01:38:39,418
without on moving forward.

2640
01:38:39,418 --> 01:38:40,520
Okay. I will start working on

2641
01:38:40,520 --> 01:38:40,752
that. Trying to get some

2642
01:38:40,752 --> 01:38:43,152
planning stuff together soon

2643
01:38:43,221 --> 01:38:44,823
as possible to get get this

2644
01:38:44,823 --> 01:38:47,259
going. The other thing I would

2645
01:38:47,259 --> 01:38:48,994
like to bring up real quick is

2646
01:38:48,994 --> 01:38:51,129
so facilities maintenance. We

2647
01:38:51,129 --> 01:38:52,297
have 2 chiller replacements

2648
01:38:52,297 --> 01:38:56,497
and I have the agenda item in

2649
01:38:56,969 --> 01:38:57,636
for the next board meeting. We

2650
01:38:57,636 --> 01:38:58,336
have to chill replacements

2651
01:38:58,336 --> 01:38:59,337
that are needing to be done.

2652
01:38:59,337 --> 01:39:01,940
They were budgeted for this

2653
01:39:01,940 --> 01:39:02,841
year. One of them is that this

2654
01:39:02,841 --> 01:39:04,841
building, distillers over 20

2655
01:39:05,643 --> 01:39:07,120
years old, it's failing. And

2656
01:39:07,120 --> 01:39:08,948
then emergency operation

2657
01:39:08,948 --> 01:39:10,548
Center where chief and all the

2658
01:39:10,548 --> 01:39:12,618
staff is that chillers in the

2659
01:39:12,618 --> 01:39:13,685
same type of were having

2660
01:39:13,685 --> 01:39:14,553
issues. We've been having a

2661
01:39:14,553 --> 01:39:15,254
lot of warranty issues and

2662
01:39:15,254 --> 01:39:18,230
service issues with that. Our

2663
01:39:18,230 --> 01:39:18,557
contract is up on the service.

2664
01:39:18,557 --> 01:39:20,957
With both those for

2665
01:39:22,661 --> 01:39:23,328
replacement this year and

2666
01:39:23,328 --> 01:39:25,728
we've been working through

2667
01:39:25,797 --> 01:39:26,532
negotiations with train under

2668
01:39:26,532 --> 01:39:27,199
an army contract and trying to

2669
01:39:27,199 --> 01:39:29,599
get this 2 projects moving

2670
01:39:31,270 --> 01:39:32,337
forward and as you all know

2671
01:39:32,337 --> 01:39:34,472
right now with the things that

2672
01:39:34,472 --> 01:39:35,307
are going on in the open

2673
01:39:35,307 --> 01:39:38,777
market, we kind of got dead

2674
01:39:38,777 --> 01:39:39,478
headed this week. I had

2675
01:39:39,478 --> 01:39:41,246
another conversation with our

2676
01:39:41,246 --> 01:39:42,514
representative which at with

2677
01:39:42,514 --> 01:39:45,514
train, they're trying to hold

2678
01:39:47,519 --> 01:39:48,620
some prices for us. Pretty

2679
01:39:48,620 --> 01:39:49,288
much if we don't sign a

2680
01:39:49,288 --> 01:39:52,157
contract by the end of this

2681
01:39:52,157 --> 01:39:55,157
week for those 2 projects we

2682
01:39:55,727 --> 01:39:57,596
will probably see another 6%

2683
01:39:57,596 --> 01:39:59,831
increase. And the I have the

2684
01:39:59,831 --> 01:40:00,833
contracts available. So if the

2685
01:40:00,833 --> 01:40:02,467
board would allow, I would

2686
01:40:02,467 --> 01:40:04,469
like to see the approval of

2687
01:40:04,469 --> 01:40:05,470
both those on piggyback

2688
01:40:05,470 --> 01:40:07,870
contracts for the 2 facilities

2689
01:40:08,390 --> 01:40:08,940
to go ahead and move forward

2690
01:40:08,940 --> 01:40:11,940
to allow the CHAIRMAN To

2691
01:40:12,878 --> 01:40:15,278
execute both those contracts

2692
01:40:15,947 --> 01:40:16,782
supposed to close said, total

2693
01:40:16,782 --> 01:40:19,852
cost right now for the public

2694
01:40:19,852 --> 01:40:21,152
safety complex. We budgeted

2695
01:40:21,152 --> 01:40:23,552
200,000 for that project. It's

2696
01:40:27,260 --> 01:40:27,959
coming in at one. 76 8.68. The

2697
01:40:27,959 --> 01:40:28,928
historic courthouse

2698
01:40:28,928 --> 01:40:29,628
replacement. That one because

2699
01:40:29,628 --> 01:40:33,980
we have to replace the pumps.

2700
01:40:33,980 --> 01:40:34,232
Those pumps are failing those

2701
01:40:34,232 --> 01:40:35,670
those 2 pumps that one came

2702
01:40:35,670 --> 01:40:38,670
in. We budgeted 200. It came

2703
01:40:40,339 --> 01:40:41,373
in at 2.51. 29. So with the

2704
01:40:41,373 --> 01:40:42,807
remainder I have the have left

2705
01:40:42,807 --> 01:40:46,407
out of the other one. We'll

2706
01:40:46,745 --> 01:40:47,479
move that over and then I'll

2707
01:40:47,479 --> 01:40:48,381
be moving a probably 30,000

2708
01:40:48,381 --> 01:40:49,882
out of contingency to go ahead

2709
01:40:49,882 --> 01:40:50,716
and cover the additional cost.

2710
01:40:50,716 --> 01:40:54,887
So that should get us to that

2711
01:40:54,887 --> 01:40:56,887
total contract amount.

2712
01:40:57,723 --> 01:40:58,791
>> So in the 6% on that would

2713
01:40:58,791 --> 01:41:01,191
be total of about 2 4,000

2714
01:41:01,560 --> 01:41:01,861
about another $24,000. Yes,

2715
01:41:01,861 --> 01:41:02,562
sir.

2716
01:41:02,562 --> 01:41:03,428
>> Yes, that's why I want to

2717
01:41:03,428 --> 01:41:04,430
bring it up today because I

2718
01:41:04,430 --> 01:41:05,131
had another conversation with

2719
01:41:05,131 --> 01:41:07,532
them with with our train rep

2720
01:41:07,532 --> 01:41:08,600
again this morning. Can you?

2721
01:41:08,600 --> 01:41:10,269
And I asked him, can you

2722
01:41:10,269 --> 01:41:11,300
please hold this until our

2723
01:41:11,300 --> 01:41:11,703
next meeting? And he said, I'm

2724
01:41:11,703 --> 01:41:14,703
doing everything in my power.

2725
01:41:15,730 --> 01:41:16,809
But right now. They're telling

2726
01:41:16,809 --> 01:41:19,811
me that they're there MAY not

2727
01:41:19,811 --> 01:41:20,513
be a way to hold that.

2728
01:41:20,513 --> 01:41:21,413
>> ask a different question.

2729
01:41:21,413 --> 01:41:25,417
So if he doesn't, if we don't

2730
01:41:25,417 --> 01:41:29,170
do this. And he doesn't hold,

2731
01:41:30,288 --> 01:41:31,590
was a outside of the 6%. It's

2732
01:41:31,590 --> 01:41:32,324
just a 6%. That's that's my

2733
01:41:32,324 --> 01:41:34,460
thing is I just want to try to

2734
01:41:34,460 --> 01:41:35,594
keep that cost.

2735
01:41:35,594 --> 01:41:36,195
>> We're already over budget.

2736
01:41:36,195 --> 01:41:38,640
That's what we've been

2737
01:41:38,640 --> 01:41:40,464
negotiating over the last 30

2738
01:41:41,100 --> 01:41:42,268
days is that this building was

2739
01:41:42,268 --> 01:41:44,169
budgeted. We budgeted 200,000

2740
01:41:44,169 --> 01:41:45,471
based off the proposal we were

2741
01:41:45,471 --> 01:41:49,710
given. Of course, we know that

2742
01:41:49,740 --> 01:41:50,309
was last year at this time.

2743
01:41:50,309 --> 01:41:52,377
But this is 20 years old. This

2744
01:41:52,377 --> 01:41:54,130
one here. Yes. And how it one

2745
01:41:54,130 --> 01:41:55,470
of its very so much about 17.

2746
01:41:55,470 --> 01:41:58,647
I think that was 17 years on

2747
01:42:01,860 --> 01:42:04,686
see? Yes, sir. And that once.

2748
01:42:08,930 --> 01:42:09,194
I would say to you. You if you

2749
01:42:09,194 --> 01:42:10,162
see no, Justin came talked to

2750
01:42:10,162 --> 01:42:12,980
me before the board meeting

2751
01:42:12,980 --> 01:42:13,966
today and let me know what was

2752
01:42:13,966 --> 01:42:15,100
going on. And I think it's

2753
01:42:15,100 --> 01:42:15,701
probably in the county's best

2754
01:42:15,701 --> 01:42:17,704
interests, you know, to move

2755
01:42:17,704 --> 01:42:18,838
forward at this time.

2756
01:42:18,838 --> 01:42:19,738
>> Because it's just going to

2757
01:42:19,738 --> 01:42:22,842
cost us more money if we delay

2758
01:42:22,842 --> 01:42:23,509
it any longer.

2759
01:42:23,509 --> 01:42:25,909
>> The lake cost us 24,000,

2760
01:42:27,179 --> 01:42:28,447
roughly. Can you put the

2761
01:42:28,447 --> 01:42:30,847
thermostat somewhere? We can

2762
01:42:32,751 --> 01:42:33,986
get home no, sir,

2763
01:42:33,986 --> 01:42:35,754
>> well, you know, that all

2764
01:42:35,754 --> 01:42:36,855
about in the middle of the

2765
01:42:36,855 --> 01:42:38,791
meeting. Send me a text and

2766
01:42:38,791 --> 01:42:39,491
got change. It got to be some

2767
01:42:39,491 --> 01:42:43,960
way to do it on stat where it

2768
01:42:43,960 --> 01:42:44,897
can be worked by.

2769
01:42:44,897 --> 01:42:46,532
>> So in this system, I just

2770
01:42:46,532 --> 01:42:47,299
want celebrate our stance with

2771
01:42:47,299 --> 01:42:49,635
these to change out. We are

2772
01:42:49,635 --> 01:42:50,203
changing to a different

2773
01:42:50,203 --> 01:42:52,203
control system.

2774
01:42:52,271 --> 01:42:54,440
>> a much more user friendly

2775
01:42:54,440 --> 01:42:56,275
control system. So throughout

2776
01:42:56,275 --> 01:42:57,760
the meetings were right now,

2777
01:42:57,760 --> 01:42:57,643
if I go into Siemens and try

2778
01:42:57,643 --> 01:43:00,643
to do that, do those

2779
01:43:00,980 --> 01:43:01,714
corrections right now, it MAY

2780
01:43:01,714 --> 01:43:05,451
take a huge delay before I can

2781
01:43:05,451 --> 01:43:06,118
make those those changes with

2782
01:43:06,118 --> 01:43:08,888
the new system. I make it.

2783
01:43:08,888 --> 01:43:09,589
It'll be instantaneous to make

2784
01:43:09,589 --> 01:43:12,158
corrections in hat. Do you do

2785
01:43:12,158 --> 01:43:13,926
it on your phone? So I will be

2786
01:43:13,926 --> 01:43:16,963
able to at the new system. We

2787
01:43:16,963 --> 01:43:17,630
need an application. Here's

2788
01:43:17,630 --> 01:43:21,330
can tone and Lana's is just

2789
01:43:21,330 --> 01:43:22,602
not is not.

2790
01:43:22,602 --> 01:43:23,336
>> we've got to come up with a

2791
01:43:23,336 --> 01:43:24,904
different plan you want me to

2792
01:43:24,904 --> 01:43:27,904
keep our power costs down.

2793
01:43:28,774 --> 01:43:31,277
This is what I try to do. Just

2794
01:43:31,277 --> 01:43:32,450
to had been hit with we had.

2795
01:43:32,450 --> 01:43:35,450
But Cotto that, yeah, keeping

2796
01:43:36,716 --> 01:43:39,752
our coast well. I had to get

2797
01:43:39,752 --> 01:43:40,486
you notice aspect to you. But

2798
01:43:40,486 --> 01:43:41,153
to goes downstairs find the

2799
01:43:41,153 --> 01:43:41,854
got you to lower down with

2800
01:43:41,854 --> 01:43:44,624
that, you know, when to quit

2801
01:43:44,624 --> 01:43:45,358
children and worked there

2802
01:43:45,358 --> 01:43:47,260
typewriters. And keep in mind

2803
01:43:47,260 --> 01:43:49,495
that there's that's always

2804
01:43:49,495 --> 01:43:52,495
going. That's always going to

2805
01:43:54,167 --> 01:43:54,901
be an issue in building, a

2806
01:43:54,901 --> 01:43:55,568
home runs. What would a holdup

2807
01:43:55,568 --> 01:43:56,360
and what I brought to great

2808
01:43:56,360 --> 01:43:58,360
things. Look 3.

2809
01:44:01,908 --> 01:44:03,976
>> And chair. We can now set

2810
01:44:03,976 --> 01:44:05,545
the temperature down stairs

2811
01:44:05,545 --> 01:44:06,513
once the alt the documents get

2812
01:44:06,513 --> 01:44:07,180
out from the supervisor of

2813
01:44:07,180 --> 01:44:08,514
elections because we had a

2814
01:44:08,514 --> 01:44:10,216
humidity issue there.

2815
01:44:10,216 --> 01:44:12,616
>> Where items for molding?

2816
01:44:13,553 --> 01:44:15,553
>> Or

2817
01:44:15,554 --> 01:44:17,657
>> there was some old issues

2818
01:44:17,657 --> 01:44:18,291
and we had to control the

2819
01:44:18,291 --> 01:44:19,759
humidity in by country by

2820
01:44:19,759 --> 01:44:20,526
lowering the temperature

2821
01:44:20,526 --> 01:44:21,494
controls the humidity. So once

2822
01:44:21,494 --> 01:44:24,494
those documents are out of

2823
01:44:25,565 --> 01:44:26,700
here, will be able to warm

2824
01:44:26,700 --> 01:44:28,267
everyone up. Yeah, and we'll

2825
01:44:28,267 --> 01:44:29,569
we'll also be working on some

2826
01:44:29,569 --> 01:44:31,969
additional items that will

2827
01:44:32,138 --> 01:44:32,705
help with that humidity. We do

2828
01:44:32,705 --> 01:44:33,373
have an issue in this

2829
01:44:33,373 --> 01:44:35,373
building, keeping humidity

2830
01:44:36,209 --> 01:44:37,770
where it needs to be.

2831
01:44:37,770 --> 01:44:37,977
>> So you need to do

2832
01:44:37,977 --> 01:44:40,680
authorization to go ahead with

2833
01:44:40,680 --> 01:44:41,248
the dew purchases that rents

2834
01:44:41,248 --> 01:44:43,490
Do the transfer. The

2835
01:44:43,490 --> 01:44:46,490
additional funds need to do.

2836
01:44:46,953 --> 01:44:48,154
Cover the additional cost.

2837
01:44:48,154 --> 01:44:49,890
Yes, it and I think the

2838
01:44:49,890 --> 01:44:50,123
transfer because it's coming

2839
01:44:50,123 --> 01:44:50,957
out of contingency should just

2840
01:44:50,957 --> 01:44:51,624
be able to be done with the

2841
01:44:51,624 --> 01:44:53,624
administrators approval to

2842
01:44:53,793 --> 01:44:54,928
under her spending authority.

2843
01:44:54,928 --> 01:44:55,595
>> But we would like the

2844
01:44:55,595 --> 01:44:57,997
consensus from the board to

2845
01:44:57,997 --> 01:44:58,665
make sure we do that transfer.

2846
01:44:58,665 --> 01:45:00,633
Only make a motion to that

2847
01:45:00,633 --> 01:45:03,633
about the Mets going great.

2848
01:45:03,836 --> 01:45:04,537
Make the motion second. We

2849
01:45:04,537 --> 01:45:07,537
have a motion by Commissioner

2850
01:45:07,874 --> 01:45:09,750
Bo second by Commissioner

2851
01:45:09,750 --> 01:45:10,276
summer, say Aye. Motion

2852
01:45:10,276 --> 01:45:13,713
carries Thank you so much. Now

2853
01:45:13,713 --> 01:45:14,747
on on the good side. So I

2854
01:45:14,747 --> 01:45:17,747
don't know if anybody's doubt

2855
01:45:18,684 --> 01:45:21,287
ag Center and if you've

2856
01:45:21,287 --> 01:45:22,220
noticed are cheeky

2857
01:45:22,220 --> 01:45:22,655
replacements going up and it's

2858
01:45:22,655 --> 01:45:23,423
pretty much down will be

2859
01:45:23,423 --> 01:45:26,423
trying to get inspection on

2860
01:45:27,160 --> 01:45:28,194
that over the next week to get

2861
01:45:28,194 --> 01:45:28,828
that finalized. And I know

2862
01:45:28,828 --> 01:45:31,228
staff, they're working on

2863
01:45:31,965 --> 01:45:32,665
landscaping plan to try to

2864
01:45:32,665 --> 01:45:35,100
utilize the rest of the grant

2865
01:45:35,100 --> 01:45:36,870
dollars to finish that project

2866
01:45:36,870 --> 01:45:38,905
up the maintenance building

2867
01:45:38,905 --> 01:45:40,907
out there. Concrete. The new

2868
01:45:40,907 --> 01:45:41,608
concrete cap has been poured.

2869
01:45:41,608 --> 01:45:42,275
So we hope in the next 3 to 4

2870
01:45:42,275 --> 01:45:45,275
weeks to see that building

2871
01:45:45,779 --> 01:45:46,479
sitting on site. So we're

2872
01:45:46,479 --> 01:45:49,479
hoping see the main building

2873
01:45:50,784 --> 01:45:52,886
go up pretty quickly winter

2874
01:45:52,886 --> 01:45:55,822
had a meeting with the also on

2875
01:45:55,822 --> 01:45:57,657
the contract for the tensions.

2876
01:45:57,657 --> 01:45:59,326
And we're waiting on some

2877
01:45:59,326 --> 01:46:01,327
dollar changes to come back

2878
01:46:01,327 --> 01:46:02,362
from them for their best and

2879
01:46:02,362 --> 01:46:05,962
final offer. So we've got a

2880
01:46:06,266 --> 01:46:09,168
lot of projects moving. How's

2881
01:46:09,168 --> 01:46:09,836
that looking Animal control

2882
01:46:09,836 --> 01:46:10,537
framing is almost complete.

2883
01:46:10,537 --> 01:46:13,537
They should start putting all

2884
01:46:14,174 --> 01:46:14,908
the rest of the siding on that

2885
01:46:14,908 --> 01:46:15,975
we're hoping is seen as that's

2886
01:46:15,975 --> 01:46:18,578
done. The Electra Tritions got

2887
01:46:18,578 --> 01:46:19,312
most of his equipment. And so

2888
01:46:19,312 --> 01:46:22,115
we're hoping to see that thing

2889
01:46:22,115 --> 01:46:24,150
probably in the next 60 days

2890
01:46:24,150 --> 01:46:26,119
with all the site work to be

2891
01:46:26,119 --> 01:46:26,786
finished. So we've got premier

2892
01:46:26,786 --> 01:46:28,388
sidewalks and some culverts

2893
01:46:28,388 --> 01:46:30,156
and some other stuff to be

2894
01:46:30,156 --> 01:46:31,158
done. But all the all the

2895
01:46:31,158 --> 01:46:32,759
plumbing the majority of

2896
01:46:32,759 --> 01:46:34,759
electrical and everything's

2897
01:46:36,896 --> 01:46:37,930
done and they should start

2898
01:46:37,930 --> 01:46:38,632
shooting the either today or

2899
01:46:38,632 --> 01:46:39,333
tomorrow. They were finishing

2900
01:46:39,333 --> 01:46:41,000
up training yesterday. Good.

2901
01:46:41,000 --> 01:46:43,103
We should be seeing that move

2902
01:46:43,103 --> 01:46:43,737
along pretty Want to get that

2903
01:46:43,737 --> 01:46:46,737
one done. And we're we're

2904
01:46:47,941 --> 01:46:48,942
looking options for to get the

2905
01:46:48,942 --> 01:46:49,676
kennels right now. Susan's

2906
01:46:49,676 --> 01:46:50,343
working on the pricing for the

2907
01:46:50,343 --> 01:46:53,943
kennels to try to get that

2908
01:46:54,147 --> 01:46:55,548
moving forward. So not parking

2909
01:46:55,548 --> 01:46:56,249
lot at airports going great

2910
01:46:56,249 --> 01:46:58,719
where we're moving along with

2911
01:46:58,719 --> 01:47:01,388
that pretty quickly. So any

2912
01:47:01,388 --> 01:47:03,788
other questions anything year?

2913
01:47:05,920 --> 01:47:05,792
Yes, sir. I brought up a

2914
01:47:05,792 --> 01:47:08,960
couple of meetings. Go about

2915
01:47:08,960 --> 01:47:09,162
got awful pothole.

2916
01:47:09,162 --> 01:47:10,263
>> And from the talk about

2917
01:47:10,263 --> 01:47:13,660
when you said Dot was aware of

2918
01:47:13,660 --> 01:47:14,100
that as well as a couple of

2919
01:47:14,100 --> 01:47:16,100
others.

2920
01:47:16,102 --> 01:47:17,304
>> Any updates as to when

2921
01:47:17,304 --> 01:47:18,105
they're they're there was some

2922
01:47:18,105 --> 01:47:20,505
discussions yesterday in our

2923
01:47:21,174 --> 01:47:21,741
meeting, we had meeting with

2924
01:47:21,741 --> 01:47:22,376
fdot on that project

2925
01:47:22,376 --> 01:47:23,744
yesterday. I sat in that

2926
01:47:23,744 --> 01:47:26,130
meeting and chiefs at and it

2927
01:47:26,130 --> 01:47:26,646
also there were some

2928
01:47:26,646 --> 01:47:27,380
discussions about there's

2929
01:47:27,380 --> 01:47:28,810
there's a coverup couple other

2930
01:47:28,810 --> 01:47:30,481
deficiencies that they still

2931
01:47:30,918 --> 01:47:31,784
have to make. Right. One of

2932
01:47:31,784 --> 01:47:32,686
them is that the bridge

2933
01:47:32,686 --> 01:47:33,353
locations where it meets the

2934
01:47:33,353 --> 01:47:34,821
bridge. Tolling water cause

2935
01:47:34,821 --> 01:47:37,221
asphalt higher than the

2936
01:47:37,858 --> 01:47:39,927
bridge. So there is some some

2937
01:47:39,927 --> 01:47:41,861
that they they know what our

2938
01:47:41,861 --> 01:47:43,964
complaints are, that they have

2939
01:47:43,964 --> 01:47:46,800
a they have not given us a

2940
01:47:46,800 --> 01:47:47,467
timeline on when all those

2941
01:47:47,467 --> 01:47:48,168
repairs will be made there.

2942
01:47:48,168 --> 01:47:48,869
They're looking at how to do

2943
01:47:48,869 --> 01:47:51,869
lane closures and some other

2944
01:47:52,372 --> 01:47:53,273
stuff. And we're just we're

2945
01:47:53,273 --> 01:47:55,750
voicing our opinion. It's not

2946
01:47:55,750 --> 01:47:57,210
our contract and it's not our

2947
01:47:57,210 --> 01:48:00,130
sta. So of course, we voiced

2948
01:48:00,130 --> 01:48:00,714
the opinion multiple times

2949
01:48:00,714 --> 01:48:01,348
that that those and it's not

2950
01:48:01,348 --> 01:48:01,982
just one in front of Taco

2951
01:48:01,982 --> 01:48:04,170
Bell. There's one ever by

2952
01:48:04,170 --> 01:48:06,286
Burger King. That's that's

2953
01:48:06,286 --> 01:48:07,354
very similar. But we're

2954
01:48:07,354 --> 01:48:09,189
voicing our opinion letting

2955
01:48:09,189 --> 01:48:10,824
them as my fact the city

2956
01:48:10,824 --> 01:48:11,491
administrator reached out to

2957
01:48:11,491 --> 01:48:12,192
late yesterday afternoon. I

2958
01:48:12,192 --> 01:48:14,600
have not had time to get back

2959
01:48:14,600 --> 01:48:14,662
with him today and its

2960
01:48:14,662 --> 01:48:17,620
probably some of those

2961
01:48:19,990 --> 01:48:20,968
discussion items. So we're

2962
01:48:20,968 --> 01:48:22,336
working on it. We dot. We're

2963
01:48:22,336 --> 01:48:24,736
doing our best commissioner

2964
01:48:25,105 --> 01:48:26,600
who member the pothole was

2965
01:48:26,600 --> 01:48:29,600
discussed in the last public.

2966

wanted to wire transfer the

2992
01:49:15,823 --> 01:49:18,658
funds that will be gone. And

2993
01:49:18,658 --> 01:49:20,560

2994
01:49:20,560 --> 01:49:21,529

2998
01:49:24,640 --> 01:49:27,535

01:49:27,535 --> 01:49:28,235

that I know you all are aware,

3139
01:53:15,763 --> 01:53:17,432

01:53:17,432 --> 01:53:18,332
aware as well. We have a new

01:53:18,332 --> 01:53:20,332

3145
01:53:26,641 --> 01:53:28,476
he's realized how big of a job

3146
01:53:28,476 --> 01:53:30,145
it is. So we're keeping pretty

3147
01:53:30,145 --> 01:53:30,946
busy, but the public will see

3148
01:53:30,946 --> 01:53:31,646

3150
01:53:34,683 --> 01:53:35,516

3151
01:53:35,516 --> 01:53:36,217
excited. The staff are really

3152
01:53:36,217 --> 01:53:39,620
excited. So he's he's hit the

3153
01:53:39,620 --> 01:53:41,155
ground running and then just

3154
01:53:41,155 --> 01:53:41,822
to wrap up last week, adding

3155
01:53:41,822 --> 01:53:45,422
to the chance to give your

3156
01:53:45,927 --> 01:53:46,561
comments. But the tourism

3157
01:53:46,561 --> 01:53:47,262
department traveled up to

3158
01:53:47,262 --> 01:53:48,363
Washington, D.C., a couple of

3159
01:53:48,363 --> 01:53:51,363
weeks ago for a travel

3160
01:53:52,333 --> 01:53:53,368
represented very well up there

3161
01:53:53,368 --> 01:53:55,604
and were able to see a pretty

3162
01:53:55,604 --> 01:53:57,672
big increase in our traffic to

3163
01:53:57,672 --> 01:53:58,339
our website and app directly

3164
01:53:58,339 --> 01:54:01,939
following that. So it was a

3165
01:54:03,278 --> 01:54:04,245
really beneficial time for us.

3166
01:54:04,245 --> 01:54:04,946
Happy that MARCH is over

3167
01:54:04,946 --> 01:54:05,580
tourism department can get a

3168
01:54:05,580 --> 01:54:09,180
little bit of a break in

3169
01:54:10,651 --> 01:54:13,651
APRIL. The cut your website,

3170
01:54:14,550 --> 01:54:14,722
but they can't comment. Have

3171
01:54:14,722 --> 01:54:16,825
you had to get your leader?

3172
01:54:16,825 --> 01:54:19,225
Whatever without. We've got

3173
01:54:20,695 --> 01:54:22,931
some site just some of our

3174
01:54:22,931 --> 01:54:23,598
thanks. We have to. Because of

3175
01:54:23,598 --> 01:54:24,733
the head-to-head to handle

3176
01:54:24,733 --> 01:54:27,602
that we website so for

3177
01:54:27,602 --> 01:54:28,837
tourism. So we're looking at

3178
01:54:28,837 --> 01:54:29,670
analytics for the tourism so

3179
01:54:29,670 --> 01:54:30,605
we can see how many people are

3180
01:54:30,605 --> 01:54:32,440
visiting our website to get

3181
01:54:32,440 --> 01:54:34,510
more information about Shelby

3182
01:54:34,510 --> 01:54:36,345
County. So the tourism website

3183
01:54:36,345 --> 01:54:37,211
slightly different from the

3184
01:54:37,211 --> 01:54:37,912
county website. You can access

3185
01:54:37,912 --> 01:54:40,312
visit. Okeechobee County dot

3186
01:54:40,849 --> 01:54:41,550
com dot com. Or you can

3187
01:54:41,550 --> 01:54:43,718
download Download our app on

3188
01:54:43,718 --> 01:54:45,520
your phone for visit

3189
01:54:45,520 --> 01:54:46,221
Okeechobee so we can see the

3190
01:54:46,221 --> 01:54:46,854
analytics of how many people

3191
01:54:46,854 --> 01:54:48,723
are downloading, how many

3192
01:54:48,723 --> 01:54:50,759
people are visiting with their

3193
01:54:50,759 --> 01:54:51,459
clicking on. There's no

3194
01:54:51,459 --> 01:54:53,728
commenting options on either

3195
01:54:53,728 --> 01:54:55,997
of those sites. It's just

3196
01:54:55,997 --> 01:54:56,731
purely information. They can

3197
01:54:56,731 --> 01:54:57,365
send us an e-mail through that

3198
01:54:57,365 --> 01:54:58,300
that they can't publicly

3199
01:54:58,300 --> 01:55:00,300
comment.

3200
01:55:05,273 --> 01:55:07,273
>> she's got typewriter.

3201
01:55:07,943 --> 01:55:10,943
Anything is set MISTER De

3202
01:55:16,952 --> 01:55:17,419
Janeiro. CHAIRMAN

3203
01:55:17,419 --> 01:55:19,419
Commissioners.

3204
01:55:19,554 --> 01:55:20,221
>> Brief update on what's

3205
01:55:20,221 --> 01:55:20,856
going You already heard of

3206
01:55:20,856 --> 01:55:22,900
some of tease update. We

3207
01:55:22,900 --> 01:55:22,991
talked about that a minute ago

3208
01:55:22,991 --> 01:55:26,591
on some repairs that need to

3209
01:55:26,995 --> 01:55:28,863
be done for 41. They are also

3210
01:55:28,863 --> 01:55:31,863
the process of wrapping up

3211
01:55:33,402 --> 01:55:34,136
state road, 70 east us 41

3212
01:55:34,136 --> 01:55:34,869
They're gonna be doing repairs

3213
01:55:34,869 --> 01:55:36,371
and stuff over the next couple

3214
01:55:36,371 --> 01:55:38,540
of weeks. But they got the

3215
01:55:38,540 --> 01:55:39,174
right to see 70's Canyon State

3216
01:55:39,174 --> 01:55:41,574
Road, 70 east of 4.41. To

3217
01:55:45,848 --> 01:55:47,848
fill. 41. From 4.41. To 17.

3218
01:55:48,450 --> 01:55:50,619
Okay. It my pot the other

3219
01:55:50,619 --> 01:55:53,619
section is complete. To the

3220
01:55:57,793 --> 01:55:58,860
West so with that, also on our

3221
01:55:58,860 --> 01:56:00,528
side. So we had been in the

3222
01:56:00,528 --> 01:56:01,296
process and we are just about

3223
01:56:01,296 --> 01:56:04,296
wrapped up with renewing all

3224
01:56:04,433 --> 01:56:05,433
of the engineering continuing

3225
01:56:05,433 --> 01:56:06,134
engineering services

3226
01:56:06,134 --> 01:56:08,134
contracts. Everybody's except

3227
01:56:09,710 --> 01:56:09,904
that the one-year extension.

3228
01:56:09,904 --> 01:56:14,104
So we now able to continue to

3229
01:56:14,643 --> 01:56:15,344
do work for the next year. Now

3230
01:56:15,344 --> 01:56:16,812
been slow. If you recall that

3231
01:56:16,812 --> 01:56:21,612
we got h in gp Grant a while

3232
01:56:21,816 --> 01:56:24,816
ago. And we got $100,000 to

3233
01:56:24,920 --> 01:56:27,920
start design work for that.

3234
01:56:28,230 --> 01:56:29,825
We're looking at most likely

3235
01:56:29,825 --> 01:56:32,225
doing master drainage for

3236
01:56:32,595 --> 01:56:33,228
Berman Road for that Hmg grant

3237
01:56:33,228 --> 01:56:35,730
money if there are other

3238
01:56:35,730 --> 01:56:37,999
thoughts than that, open to

3239
01:56:37,999 --> 01:56:39,368
it. But we have to spend that

3240
01:56:39,368 --> 01:56:40,690
money in the next year. And

3241
01:56:40,690 --> 01:56:43,205
I'm thinking that if we get a

3242
01:56:43,205 --> 01:56:44,606
head start on the master

3243
01:56:44,606 --> 01:56:45,307
drainage system for all of

3244
01:56:45,307 --> 01:56:47,342
Burma, Road from State Road,

3245
01:56:47,342 --> 01:56:48,900
70 down to 7.10, it would be

3246
01:56:48,900 --> 01:56:51,609
well used to use that money

3247
01:56:52,348 --> 01:56:52,914
for that. And that's just the

3248
01:56:52,914 --> 01:56:54,382
design portion. Well,

3249
01:56:54,382 --> 01:56:55,584
hopefully we could use So when

3250
01:56:55,584 --> 01:56:56,951
we do get eroded, prove would

3251
01:56:56,951 --> 01:56:57,620
be ahead of the game. Yes,

3252
01:56:57,620 --> 01:57:00,620
sir, that that's that's the

3253
01:57:03,158 --> 01:57:03,825
thought process behind that.

3254
01:57:03,825 --> 01:57:04,459
>> Storm, one of an ability

3255
01:57:04,459 --> 01:57:05,260
study. We have come to an

3256
01:57:05,260 --> 01:57:07,660
agreement on the additional

3257
01:57:11,433 --> 01:57:12,670
scope to include the city

3258
01:57:12,670 --> 01:57:14,503
>> the dp has the revised

3259
01:57:14,503 --> 01:57:16,710
contract under review.

3260
01:57:16,710 --> 01:57:17,906
>> Once they're ok with but it

3261
01:57:17,906 --> 01:57:20,906
up that vice contract, it'll

3262
01:57:21,143 --> 01:57:22,712
come back to you for approval.

3263
01:57:22,712 --> 01:57:25,781
And yes, it was less than the

3264
01:57:25,781 --> 01:57:26,915
amount that was originally

3265
01:57:26,915 --> 01:57:28,383
given Lofton Road. They're

3266
01:57:28,383 --> 01:57:29,318
continuing to work on the 100%

3267
01:57:29,318 --> 01:57:32,918
plants and still hoped to have

3268
01:57:34,123 --> 01:57:36,523
things ready for midsummer

3269
01:57:36,958 --> 01:57:38,227
forbidding stormwater master

3270
01:57:38,227 --> 01:57:41,227
plan. The we should be

3271
01:57:41,563 --> 01:57:42,264
bringing you the updated

3272
01:57:42,264 --> 01:57:43,298
corrected. Revised report to

3273
01:57:43,298 --> 01:57:46,898
you in the next 30 to 45 days.

3274
01:57:47,102 --> 01:57:47,770
We're hoping scheduled the

3275
01:57:47,770 --> 01:57:48,603
additional survey work that

3276
01:57:48,603 --> 01:57:51,540
was being done on the canals

3277
01:57:51,540 --> 01:57:52,575
is about 95% complete. Now and

3278
01:57:52,575 --> 01:57:53,242
we hope to have the mapping to

3279
01:57:53,242 --> 01:57:56,278
us in the next 30 days for

3280
01:57:56,278 --> 01:57:57,460
review. With that, those my

3281
01:57:57,460 --> 01:58:00,215
updates for today. And if you

3282
01:58:00,215 --> 01:58:00,683
have other questions. Anyone

3283
01:58:00,683 --> 01:58:01,316
have.

3284
01:58:01,316 --> 01:58:03,716
>> Anything you need from

3285
01:58:04,720 --> 01:58:06,355
engineer. MR. CHAIRMAN. Yes,

3286
01:58:06,355 --> 01:58:09,955
sir. This MAY fall under your.

3287
01:58:12,940 --> 01:58:14,494
Their purview. Finished the.

3288
01:58:14,964 --> 01:58:16,650
Partnership that we were doing

3289
01:58:16,650 --> 01:58:19,650
uh repair those rows behind

3290
01:58:20,636 --> 01:58:21,537
bills. Many from.

3291
01:58:21,537 --> 01:58:25,441
>> So I I can answer that real

3292
01:58:25,441 --> 01:58:27,841
quickly for commissioner. So,

3293
01:58:28,543 --> 01:58:29,178
yeah, we're we're working with

3294
01:58:29,178 --> 01:58:30,579
the attorneys office has

3295
01:58:30,579 --> 01:58:31,146
provided us. Submitted it back

3296
01:58:31,146 --> 01:58:31,814
with the are with the

3297
01:58:31,814 --> 01:58:33,814
additional information that

3298
01:58:34,149 --> 01:58:34,817
was needed for the inner local

3299
01:58:34,817 --> 01:58:36,817
agreement. With But

3300
01:58:37,586 --> 01:58:38,287
construction is already

3301
01:58:38,287 --> 01:58:41,287
commencing for that. So we're

3302
01:58:41,390 --> 01:58:42,558
already working through it. We

3303
01:58:42,558 --> 01:58:44,727
had the funds in the budget to

3304
01:58:44,727 --> 01:58:45,695
go ahead and move the project

3305
01:58:45,695 --> 01:58:46,862
for. We did not want to remove

3306
01:58:46,862 --> 01:58:48,965
allies as working through

3307
01:58:48,965 --> 01:58:49,999
getting the board's approval

3308
01:58:49,999 --> 01:58:53,568
and the ou a board approval to

3309
01:58:53,568 --> 01:58:54,270
good get that. But we're at

3310
01:58:54,270 --> 01:58:55,871
the end of that agreement, of

3311
01:58:55,871 --> 01:58:56,638
course, is that they've done a

3312
01:58:56,638 --> 01:58:57,339
great job, getting that

3313
01:58:57,339 --> 01:59:00,339
information and get it right

3314
01:59:00,743 --> 01:59:02,378
back to So there and had a few

3315
01:59:02,378 --> 01:59:03,450
items Zach it asked for. And

3316
01:59:03,450 --> 01:59:03,712
we're hoping to have that

3317
01:59:03,712 --> 01:59:06,115
ready to come to our board.

3318
01:59:06,115 --> 01:59:06,816
And do board for the next

3319
01:59:06,816 --> 01:59:09,816
meeting? Thank you very much.

3320
01:59:09,920 --> 01:59:12,920
Yes, sir. Nothing else. Thank

3321
01:59:15,424 --> 01:59:17,824
you, Appreciate it. Okay.

3322
01:59:22,364 --> 01:59:25,364
MADAM Attorney. It's not his

3323
01:59:30,840 --> 01:59:32,840
tone. It.

3324
01:59:32,975 --> 01:59:34,177
>> At this time we do not have

3325
01:59:34,177 --> 01:59:34,877
an update, although I do

3326
01:59:34,877 --> 01:59:36,790
believe there is a topic that

3327
01:59:36,790 --> 01:59:36,813
commissioner Burrows is going

3328
01:59:36,813 --> 01:59:40,413
to raise later that we'll talk

3329
01:59:41,384 --> 01:59:42,284
about. I think you have. We

3330
01:59:42,284 --> 01:59:43,119
just love working with you

3331
01:59:43,119 --> 01:59:46,689
all, but that's all we have.

3332
01:59:46,689 --> 01:59:48,689
Thank you

3333
01:59:50,590 --> 01:59:50,793
>> And a brand what you needed

3334
01:59:50,793 --> 01:59:53,793
than in the elevation. Second

3335
01:59:55,310 --> 01:59:59,831
say I think if I could get a

3336
02:00:02,939 --> 02:00:05,339
booster here, sometimes when

3337
02:00:05,942 --> 02:00:08,942
hoping gets down for obvious

3338
02:00:11,581 --> 02:00:12,815
reasons. You've been

3339
02:00:12,815 --> 02:00:14,417
Commissioner Sumner. I really

3340
02:00:14,417 --> 02:00:16,218
don't have anything keep being

3341
02:00:16,218 --> 02:00:17,860
called about that same pothole

3342
02:00:17,860 --> 02:00:18,721
ad.

3343
02:00:18,721 --> 02:00:19,955
>> Rookie mistake of telling

3344
02:00:19,955 --> 02:00:23,259
Yeah, it's got that taken care

3345
02:00:23,259 --> 02:00:23,927
of. Clearly we're still

3346
02:00:23,927 --> 02:00:26,630
working on it so that that

3347
02:00:26,630 --> 02:00:30,830
was. That was a kind of a

3348
02:00:31,367 --> 02:00:32,101
pressing one a quick note and

3349
02:00:32,101 --> 02:00:34,471
some of you already know this.

3350
02:00:34,471 --> 02:00:36,606
My beds in the hospital. Don't

3351
02:00:36,606 --> 02:00:38,374
really think there's anything

3352
02:00:38,374 --> 02:00:40,476
to majorly wrong. I just got

3353
02:00:40,476 --> 02:00:42,612
back the country last night at

3354
02:00:42,612 --> 02:00:43,413
midnight. And soon as we break

3355
02:00:43,413 --> 02:00:43,946
from go over there. Some might

3356
02:00:43,946 --> 02:00:44,613
have some more from

3357
02:00:44,613 --> 02:00:47,613
information we come back at

3358
02:00:48,284 --> 02:00:49,652
one. Served. But to keep him

3359
02:00:49,652 --> 02:00:50,319
in your thoughts and prayers

3360
02:00:50,319 --> 02:00:52,422
and it's pretty much all I

3361
02:00:52,422 --> 02:00:54,822
have. Commissioner. Good for

3362
02:00:59,195 --> 02:01:00,830
it. All right. I have. Young

3363
02:01:00,830 --> 02:01:03,230
couple that contacted me.

3364
02:01:07,270 --> 02:01:08,604
About. They had a young child

3365
02:01:08,604 --> 02:01:09,205
passed away in child was

3366
02:01:09,205 --> 02:01:11,605
buried in the evergreen

3367
02:01:11,907 --> 02:01:12,742
cemetery.

3368
02:01:12,742 --> 02:01:13,476
>> And they called me and

3369
02:01:13,476 --> 02:01:16,476
asked me about the possibility

3370
02:01:16,512 --> 02:01:20,112
of a private cemetery at your

3371
02:01:21,617 --> 02:01:23,653
house to move 2. Move child

3372
02:01:23,653 --> 02:01:25,788
evergreen to own mother used

3373
02:01:25,788 --> 02:01:26,990
to be years ago. You could

3374
02:01:26,990 --> 02:01:27,690
have a private cemetery on

3375
02:01:27,690 --> 02:01:30,690
your private property where I

3376
02:01:30,827 --> 02:01:31,494
thought that that had covid

3377
02:01:31,494 --> 02:01:32,195
nixed by the state several

3378
02:01:32,195 --> 02:01:35,865
years ago. But said I try to

3379
02:01:35,865 --> 02:01:36,699
find out what the what the

3380
02:01:36,699 --> 02:01:39,699
opportunity is is for that.

3381
02:01:42,105 --> 02:01:42,839
So. Nothing in a hurry. But of

3382
02:01:42,839 --> 02:01:46,439
just we're having to look into

3383
02:01:47,543 --> 02:01:48,378
it and circle back, right?

3384
02:01:48,378 --> 02:01:48,945
That's that's a loss. Early

3385
02:01:48,945 --> 02:01:49,645
currently our land

3386
02:01:49,645 --> 02:01:50,246
Development, land development

3387
02:01:50,246 --> 02:01:52,246
regulations, expression

3388
02:01:53,820 --> 02:01:54,183
prohibit that.

3389
02:01:54,183 --> 02:01:54,851
>> So take if you want

3390
02:01:54,851 --> 02:01:55,552
consider at to change land

3391
02:01:55,552 --> 02:01:57,552
development regulations with

3392
02:01:58,455 --> 02:01:59,122
you can't do that anymore. And

3393
02:01:59,122 --> 02:02:01,522
thought like maybe 20 years

3394
02:02:01,925 --> 02:02:03,593
ago that it. Had changed to

3395
02:02:03,593 --> 02:02:05,996
where you couldn't do that

3396
02:02:05,996 --> 02:02:08,498
anymore. But think the young

3397
02:02:08,498 --> 02:02:09,399
lady approach me about it and

3398
02:02:09,399 --> 02:02:11,670
I said that I would bring it

3399
02:02:11,670 --> 02:02:13,369
up see if there is any any

3400
02:02:13,369 --> 02:02:16,969
path. 2 being able to do that

3401
02:02:19,342 --> 02:02:20,477
for him. So. So I guess

3402
02:02:20,477 --> 02:02:21,144
there's a path that we have to

3403
02:02:21,144 --> 02:02:23,544
change the land development

3404
02:02:24,347 --> 02:02:24,981
regulations to do it.

3405
02:02:24,981 --> 02:02:26,315
>> chair also, I think we

3406
02:02:26,315 --> 02:02:29,915
would need to look into laws

3407
02:02:30,190 --> 02:02:30,721
to make sure that there. I

3408
02:02:30,721 --> 02:02:33,721
don't MADAM Attorney said she

3409
02:02:34,524 --> 02:02:37,524
would okay. She would research

3410
02:02:40,296 --> 02:02:44,496
Get back to us we are going

3411
02:02:45,768 --> 02:02:46,469
tell I'm sure are.

3412
02:02:46,469 --> 02:02:47,170
Administrative staff is going

3413
02:02:47,170 --> 02:02:47,838
to be very happy with the new

3414
02:02:47,838 --> 02:02:48,704
air-conditioners where they

3415
02:02:48,704 --> 02:02:51,208
don't have any more problems

3416
02:02:51,208 --> 02:02:53,608
with their typewriters slide

3417
02:03:00,350 --> 02:03:03,190
rules. So that That's going to

3418
02:03:03,190 --> 02:03:04,120
be nice. You're out of

3419
02:03:04,120 --> 02:03:07,120
>> don't to dip Don't tease

3420
02:03:10,793 --> 02:03:11,661
me. Think we meet before the

3421
02:03:11,661 --> 02:03:12,229
next before Easter. So few

3422
02:03:12,229 --> 02:03:14,629
don't have Easter to

3423
02:03:15,732 --> 02:03:17,732
everybody. Commissioner to

3424
02:03:24,240 --> 02:03:24,908
Carlo. This this month has

3425
02:03:24,908 --> 02:03:25,909
actually been a little slow

3426
02:03:25,909 --> 02:03:27,343
compared to last month.

3427
02:03:27,343 --> 02:03:29,343
>> think everybody would

3428
02:03:33,884 --> 02:03:35,180
agree, but of. I have a to me,

3429
02:03:35,180 --> 02:03:35,619
my wife. We have a lot of

3430
02:03:35,619 --> 02:03:38,190
kids. A lot 7 children

3431
02:03:39,723 --> 02:03:40,423
combined. The 19

3432
02:03:40,423 --> 02:03:43,423
grandchildren. One on the way

3433
02:03:46,563 --> 02:03:49,433
on tv. So make a long story

3434
02:03:49,433 --> 02:03:50,660
short. I spend a lot of time.

3435
02:03:50,660 --> 02:03:50,701
High school baseball last

3436
02:03:50,701 --> 02:03:53,136
season between one of my

3437
02:03:53,136 --> 02:03:55,536
grandkids and my something

3438
02:03:56,139 --> 02:03:56,840
coach. And then we have kids

3439
02:03:56,840 --> 02:03:59,843
playing in the U.S. Air that

3440
02:03:59,843 --> 02:04:02,843
play the ball. Last Saturday.

3441
02:04:04,614 --> 02:04:05,316
My church brought. Group of

3442
02:04:05,316 --> 02:04:06,417
Spanish and turns that wanted

3443
02:04:06,417 --> 02:04:08,817
to do something. Our

3444
02:04:09,986 --> 02:04:10,654
community. So we took them out

3445
02:04:10,654 --> 02:04:13,654
too soccer fields and they

3446
02:04:13,857 --> 02:04:15,559
cook hot dogs handed I thought

3447
02:04:15,559 --> 02:04:18,862
that with the church and by

3448
02:04:18,862 --> 02:04:21,365
and I was amazed at how many

3449
02:04:21,365 --> 02:04:24,702
of our kids play soccer. I

3450
02:04:24,702 --> 02:04:26,470
could not believe that. Going

3451
02:04:26,470 --> 02:04:29,470
in. I encourage everybody to

3452
02:04:31,108 --> 02:04:33,443
do this cra. And the different

3453
02:04:33,443 --> 02:04:37,430
programs. We have so many kids

3454
02:04:38,916 --> 02:04:39,616
that our athletic programs. I

3455
02:04:39,616 --> 02:04:41,251
the hope of the whole soccer

3456
02:04:41,251 --> 02:04:42,419
field areas full. And the

3457
02:04:42,419 --> 02:04:46,619
other night at the ball. I had

3458
02:04:49,293 --> 02:04:50,895
to walk. A couple football

3459
02:04:50,895 --> 02:04:53,895
field length. Someone to say

3460
02:04:54,331 --> 02:04:56,333
1000 feet or better from where

3461
02:04:56,333 --> 02:04:56,867
I parked. I mean, we we really

3462
02:04:56,867 --> 02:04:58,402
have a lot of kids

3463
02:04:58,402 --> 02:05:00,802
participating in our sports

3464
02:05:00,938 --> 02:05:02,806
programs. My hats off to the

3465
02:05:02,806 --> 02:05:03,507
volunteers as I was on a cra

3466
02:05:03,507 --> 02:05:07,107
boards for years. And I know

3467
02:05:07,544 --> 02:05:08,245
what it takes who does Matt

3468
02:05:08,245 --> 02:05:09,746
Campbell and his assistant at

3469
02:05:09,746 --> 02:05:12,382
the soccer field, the Nissan

3470
02:05:12,382 --> 02:05:16,582
and they all a full plate. I'm

3471
02:05:16,620 --> 02:05:17,287
sure. Thank you very much.

3472
02:05:17,287 --> 02:05:19,287
Commissioner. Boost. Thank

3473
02:05:19,790 --> 02:05:20,457
you, MR. CHAIRMAN

3474
02:05:20,457 --> 02:05:23,457
>> we're going to talk but

3475
02:05:27,664 --> 02:05:28,365
watermelons. So I visit from

3476
02:05:28,365 --> 02:05:31,365
resident on south with 60. So

3477
02:05:33,300 --> 02:05:33,737
the drive yesterday. Concerned

3478
02:05:33,737 --> 02:05:36,737
with the trucks and everything

3479
02:05:37,700 --> 02:05:37,707
would be potentially would be

3480
02:05:37,707 --> 02:05:38,275

3481
02:05:38,275 --> 02:05:40,275
watermelon season and

3482
02:05:43,800 --> 02:05:44,214
eccentric, And so during a

3483
02:05:44,214 --> 02:05:45,182
court that during the course

3484
02:05:45,182 --> 02:05:45,850
of the conversation, it was

3485
02:05:45,850 --> 02:05:47,551
explained to him about the

3486
02:05:47,551 --> 02:05:48,185
right to farm act that they

3487
02:05:48,185 --> 02:05:50,585
didn't believe that that

3488
02:05:51,655 --> 02:05:53,991
applied to that. So. The

3489
02:05:53,991 --> 02:05:54,692
attorney noted has been good

3490
02:05:54,692 --> 02:05:57,920
enough to supply information

3491
02:05:59,290 --> 02:06:00,731
to this this morning. It Zach

3492
02:06:00,731 --> 02:06:03,731

3493
02:06:03,734 --> 02:06:04,835

3498
02:06:15,145 --> 02:06:16,413
in the right to work right to

3499
02:06:16,413 --> 02:06:18,683

02:06:54,785 --> 02:06:56,785
commissioner. So.

3518
02:06:58,923 --> 02:07:00,891
>> Under the county code, the

3519
02:07:00,891 --> 02:07:01,525
regulation of a commercial

3520
02:07:01,525 --> 02:07:04,525
packing house is under a

3521
02:07:04,929 --> 02:07:06,363
special exception use.

3522
02:07:06,363 --> 02:07:07,732
>> Our code and state statutes

3523
02:07:07,732 --> 02:07:10,568
do not provide definitions for

3524
02:07:10,568 --> 02:07:13,568
a commercial packing house. So

3525
02:07:16,400 --> 02:07:16,773
we looked to. The case law and

3526
02:07:16,773 --> 02:07:20,973
what we have found is that a

3527
02:07:21,812 --> 02:07:23,812
commercial packing house.

3528
02:07:24,748 --> 02:07:25,490
Receiving unpacking produce

3529
02:07:25,490 --> 02:07:25,682
from.

3530
02:07:25,682 --> 02:07:26,283
>> Multiple sources from

3531
02:07:26,283 --> 02:07:28,283
multiple properties for

3532
02:07:29,987 --> 02:07:30,822
multiple owners.

3533
02:07:30,822 --> 02:07:33,822
>> Whereas in as defined under

3534
02:07:36,600 --> 02:07:36,727
an agricultural use. Packing

3535
02:07:36,727 --> 02:07:39,127
operation is incidental to

3536
02:07:39,797 --> 02:07:40,397
agriculture. It's part of the

3537
02:07:40,397 --> 02:07:42,797
you know, that general

3538
02:07:43,601 --> 02:07:45,837
practice and if the packing is

3539
02:07:45,837 --> 02:07:46,637
occurring from a single

3540
02:07:46,637 --> 02:07:49,370
source. You know, you're

3541
02:07:51,542 --> 02:07:53,811
packing your own produce. Then

3542
02:07:53,811 --> 02:07:54,545
that is falls under

3543
02:07:54,545 --> 02:07:56,945
agriculture, which falls under

3544
02:07:57,480 --> 02:07:59,217
the right to farm Act. So we

3545
02:07:59,217 --> 02:08:01,617
are largely preempted from

3546
02:08:03,755 --> 02:08:05,523
regulation of those practices.

3547
02:08:05,523 --> 02:08:07,258
However, the county does have

3548
02:08:07,258 --> 02:08:09,658
jurisdiction to regulate its

3549
02:08:10,561 --> 02:08:12,964
roads. So the county MAY

3550
02:08:12,964 --> 02:08:15,364
establish speed limits limits

3551
02:08:18,200 --> 02:08:19,270
on weights of vehicles.

3552
02:08:19,270 --> 02:08:20,371
>> Establishments hours under

3553
02:08:20,371 --> 02:08:22,600
which certain vehicles are

3554
02:08:22,600 --> 02:08:24,600
certain traffic control.

3555
02:08:27,812 --> 02:08:28,512
>> Maneuvers. Occur on a road.

3556
02:08:28,512 --> 02:08:32,112
So these are all options that

3557
02:08:32,683 --> 02:08:33,417
the county has in order to

3558
02:08:33,417 --> 02:08:36,417
regulate the traffic moving to

3559
02:08:37,622 --> 02:08:40,524
and from. Any facility along

3560
02:08:40,524 --> 02:08:41,258
any road. It just has to be

3561
02:08:41,258 --> 02:08:44,858
across the board rate. You cut

3562
02:08:44,929 --> 02:08:45,630
it. On the regulate the trucks

3563
02:08:45,630 --> 02:08:46,264
going to the packing house.

3564
02:08:46,264 --> 02:08:49,264
You have to regulate all

3565
02:08:50,701 --> 02:08:51,402
trucks. Of a similar kind that

3566
02:08:51,402 --> 02:08:55,602
are moving on that road in a

3567
02:08:56,173 --> 02:08:56,774
similar way.

3568
02:08:56,774 --> 02:08:59,243
>> So what I what I was

3569
02:08:59,243 --> 02:09:00,344
suggesting to the board this

3570
02:09:00,344 --> 02:09:01,110
is like the preemptive strike

3571
02:09:01,110 --> 02:09:01,679
because know that even were

3572
02:09:01,679 --> 02:09:04,790
out there doing watermelons

3573
02:09:06,417 --> 02:09:07,252
right now. So I'm suggesting

3574
02:09:07,252 --> 02:09:09,200
to the board that number one,

3575
02:09:09,200 --> 02:09:10,121
you can't we can't do anything

3576
02:09:10,121 --> 02:09:12,356
in terms of the packing House

3577
02:09:12,356 --> 02:09:14,756
concept because single source.

3578
02:09:14,992 --> 02:09:18,592
But we can control the speed

3579
02:09:19,197 --> 02:09:21,198
limit on the roads and the

3580
02:09:21,198 --> 02:09:21,933
week variations because one of

3581
02:09:21,933 --> 02:09:22,667
those bridges out there is one

3582
02:09:22,667 --> 02:09:23,401
of the bridges that we have

3583
02:09:23,401 --> 02:09:27,505
severe issue or is it an issue

3584
02:09:27,505 --> 02:09:30,341
with? It's on list of bridges

3585
02:09:30,341 --> 02:09:31,675
Stephen I talked about we so I

3586
02:09:31,675 --> 02:09:33,611
think what we've issue should

3587
02:09:33,611 --> 02:09:34,179
be doing is making sure that

3588
02:09:34,179 --> 02:09:36,579
there's a speed limit

3589
02:09:37,916 --> 02:09:38,616
limitations of these trucks. I

3590
02:09:38,616 --> 02:09:40,885
don't think you can limit the

3591
02:09:40,885 --> 02:09:42,754
number of See how you did it.

3592
02:09:42,754 --> 02:09:44,210
You can't you could do

3593
02:09:44,210 --> 02:09:44,889
anything but you can't manage

3594
02:09:44,889 --> 02:09:45,590
it. And so I don't want to do

3595
02:09:45,590 --> 02:09:48,492
something you can't manage to

3596
02:09:48,492 --> 02:09:49,194
make some sense to me. But I

3597
02:09:49,194 --> 02:09:51,396
do think that you can manage

3598
02:09:51,396 --> 02:09:54,996
the time. That the trucks can

3599
02:09:55,100 --> 02:09:55,800
run on the road. Right?

3600
02:09:55,800 --> 02:09:57,868
Because you got mining trucks

3601
02:09:57,868 --> 02:10:00,104
and you've got watermelon

3602
02:10:00,104 --> 02:10:00,772
trucks. So you managed to tie

3603
02:10:00,772 --> 02:10:04,372
mean the time in which they

3604
02:10:05,176 --> 02:10:06,944
can run. Like for

3605
02:10:06,944 --> 02:10:07,645
hypothetically a 7 o'clock to

3606
02:10:07,645 --> 02:10:09,140
5 o'clock or 7 o'clock, 77 or

3607
02:10:09,140 --> 02:10:12,614
whatever it MAY be. I think

3608
02:10:13,418 --> 02:10:15,853
you can manage that. In terms

3609
02:10:15,853 --> 02:10:16,587
thank you. Manage the number

3610
02:10:16,587 --> 02:10:17,288
of trips, the budget So what I

3611
02:10:17,288 --> 02:10:19,324
do want to do is meant to put

3612
02:10:19,324 --> 02:10:20,391
something in place that you

3613
02:10:20,391 --> 02:10:22,791
can't manage. That's that's

3614
02:10:23,495 --> 02:10:25,430
not that's not feasible. But I

3615
02:10:25,430 --> 02:10:26,831
do believe we can manage the

3616
02:10:26,831 --> 02:10:28,333
hours of operation on that

3617
02:10:28,333 --> 02:10:31,502
road. And how could what would

3618
02:10:31,502 --> 02:10:35,102
juror? Did you have a police

3619
02:10:35,206 --> 02:10:36,474
officer now? They are.

3620
02:10:36,474 --> 02:10:38,443
>> Phone over the running at a

3621
02:10:38,443 --> 02:10:39,144
different time. How would put

3622
02:10:39,144 --> 02:10:42,346
that last year? They can. We

3623
02:10:42,346 --> 02:10:43,480
did that last year. Already.

3624
02:10:43,480 --> 02:10:43,749
>> up. What I'm proposing is

3625
02:10:43,749 --> 02:10:45,349
nothing more than what we did

3626
02:10:45,349 --> 02:10:48,654
last year at ad from 7 o'clock

3627
02:10:48,654 --> 02:10:49,321
to something number. We've

3628
02:10:49,321 --> 02:10:50,555
already done desk before we

3629
02:10:50,555 --> 02:10:51,189
did the right to Farm Act.

3630
02:10:51,189 --> 02:10:54,189
Under the right format. I

3631
02:10:55,260 --> 02:10:56,160
don't. I think you can do

3632
02:10:56,160 --> 02:10:56,862
speed limits, but I don't

3633
02:10:56,862 --> 02:10:57,429
think teach you can do limit

3634
02:10:57,429 --> 02:10:59,829
Haitians on that. But

3635
02:11:01,266 --> 02:11:02,200
>> first of all, this demands

3636
02:11:02,200 --> 02:11:03,935
finished when does his crop.

3637
02:11:03,935 --> 02:11:04,603
He's going to get another

3638
02:11:04,603 --> 02:11:05,337
piece of property purchased

3639
02:11:05,337 --> 02:11:08,640
and he's gonna go go into this

3640
02:11:08,640 --> 02:11:09,340
year. You know, he's going to

3641
02:11:09,340 --> 02:11:12,343
do is giving away the one of

3642
02:11:12,343 --> 02:11:13,770
those not I thought you're not

3643
02:11:13,770 --> 02:11:14,746
getting know he'll no, no, no.

3644
02:11:14,746 --> 02:11:16,682
There been a good neighbor. By

3645
02:11:16,682 --> 02:11:18,983
the time to get some benefit.

3646
02:11:18,983 --> 02:11:22,521
In a season debut? 6 weeks and

3647
02:11:22,521 --> 02:11:26,121
it's gone. And that's just a

3648
02:11:26,658 --> 02:11:27,625
suggestion. Mean, I want to

3649
02:11:27,625 --> 02:11:29,961
work with you because I know

3650
02:11:29,961 --> 02:11:30,595
you get I got complaints

3651
02:11:30,595 --> 02:11:32,698
there. So that's all I'm

3652
02:11:32,698 --> 02:11:33,765
saying is I think we should

3653
02:11:33,765 --> 02:11:34,933
institute the same thing we

3654
02:11:34,933 --> 02:11:35,634
had last year and not do

3655
02:11:35,634 --> 02:11:37,970
anything different with prove

3656
02:11:37,970 --> 02:11:38,670
we could do that and the right

3657
02:11:38,670 --> 02:11:39,371
to Farm Act. You had to pull

3658
02:11:39,371 --> 02:11:41,740
no word right? Far might than

3659
02:11:41,740 --> 02:11:43,842
anything to do with the roads.

3660
02:11:43,842 --> 02:11:44,543
>> But if it does,

3661
02:11:44,543 --> 02:11:46,144
commissioner read the farm to

3662
02:11:46,144 --> 02:11:48,513
market Road has has a of farm

3663
02:11:48,513 --> 02:11:49,247
to market road. It is

3664
02:11:49,247 --> 02:11:50,582
commissioners farm market long

3665
02:11:50,582 --> 02:11:52,885
before it was ever subdivision

3666
02:11:52,885 --> 02:11:53,785
was a collector road. Is that

3667
02:11:53,785 --> 02:11:55,521
the same thing? Well, it could

3668
02:11:55,521 --> 02:11:57,622
be the same thing, but that

3669
02:11:57,622 --> 02:11:59,558
Rove was constructed to go to

3670
02:11:59,558 --> 02:12:00,592
the ranch, right? And I think

3671
02:12:00,592 --> 02:12:02,294
has. I read the contract

3672
02:12:02,294 --> 02:12:02,961
yesterday or the agreement

3673
02:12:02,961 --> 02:12:05,961
from the attorney, which I

3674
02:12:06,231 --> 02:12:07,232
will let them read. I think

3675
02:12:07,232 --> 02:12:08,767
there are some things in there

3676
02:12:08,767 --> 02:12:09,401
will definitely change thought

3677
02:12:09,401 --> 02:12:12,401
process that has not been

3678
02:12:13,739 --> 02:12:14,473
done. But we're still talking

3679
02:12:14,473 --> 02:12:18,730
about 6 weeks from now. It's a

3680
02:12:18,810 --> 02:12:19,445
thing of the past. Yeah, I

3681
02:12:19,445 --> 02:12:20,112
just put that out all I'm

3682
02:12:20,112 --> 02:12:22,213
looking for right now is I

3683
02:12:22,213 --> 02:12:22,880
just said. I didn't know the

3684
02:12:22,880 --> 02:12:25,280
illnesses because I haven't

3685
02:12:27,853 --> 02:12:29,870
paid attention to it. But what

3686
02:12:29,870 --> 02:12:30,889
we did last year, that's all

3687
02:12:30,889 --> 02:12:32,891
I'm suggesting is just get

3688
02:12:32,891 --> 02:12:34,260
what we had to pull off last

3689
02:12:34,260 --> 02:12:36,940
year because it was a miracle

3690
02:12:36,940 --> 02:12:36,995
that we didn't pull off last

3691
02:12:36,995 --> 02:12:39,798
year. We did to MR. Chair, I

3692
02:12:39,798 --> 02:12:41,798
MAY

3693
02:12:42,467 --> 02:12:44,403
>> I believe there was there

3694
02:12:44,403 --> 02:12:47,403
is an issue related to.

3695
02:12:47,773 --> 02:12:48,406
Permitting of the use and

3696
02:12:48,406 --> 02:12:50,806
there's a separate issue

3697
02:12:50,909 --> 02:12:51,610
related to use of the road. My

3698
02:12:51,610 --> 02:12:54,610
understanding is that road is

3699
02:12:57,449 --> 02:12:58,490
a county. Maintained road. And

3700
02:12:58,490 --> 02:12:58,783
because it is under our

3701
02:12:58,783 --> 02:13:01,183
jurisdiction, we have the

3702
02:13:01,687 --> 02:13:04,870
ability to regulate things

3703
02:13:05,657 --> 02:13:07,626
like speed limit weight limit,

3704
02:13:07,626 --> 02:13:10,280
even hours of use or hours

3705
02:13:10,280 --> 02:13:13,628
that is open to certain types

3706
02:13:14,132 --> 02:13:14,800
of traffic. If it has a a

3707
02:13:14,800 --> 02:13:15,434
reasonable relation to the

3708
02:13:15,434 --> 02:13:17,834
health safety and public

3709
02:13:20,500 --> 02:13:20,606
welfare. Certainly related to

3710
02:13:20,606 --> 02:13:23,600
speed limits and weight

3711
02:13:24,542 --> 02:13:25,277
limits. I would. Want to have

3712
02:13:25,277 --> 02:13:27,946
through the ministry or make

3713
02:13:27,946 --> 02:13:28,614
sure that we're working county

3714
02:13:28,614 --> 02:13:30,949
engineer to make sure that

3715
02:13:30,949 --> 02:13:33,949
those are supported. With a

3716
02:13:34,453 --> 02:13:37,156
rational basis. But as the as

3717
02:13:37,156 --> 02:13:40,156
the county maintain road, we

3718
02:13:40,192 --> 02:13:41,493
have a large degree of

3719
02:13:41,493 --> 02:13:43,493
regulatory authority, Mr

3720
02:13:44,162 --> 02:13:45,640
Chair. But this meant

3721
02:13:45,640 --> 02:13:45,731
Commissioner David, what they

3722
02:13:45,731 --> 02:13:46,398
continue. Police just some

3723
02:13:46,398 --> 02:13:47,966
things as you're discussing

3724
02:13:47,966 --> 02:13:48,400
this, you might want to

3725
02:13:48,400 --> 02:13:48,967
consider so.

3726
02:13:48,967 --> 02:13:51,367
>> We can regulate by

3727
02:13:56,410 --> 02:13:59,410
category. But not by business.

3728
02:13:59,845 --> 02:14:00,512
So if you say, you know, Fi

3729
02:14:00,512 --> 02:14:01,579
heckles, veteran or trucks,

3730
02:14:01,579 --> 02:14:03,982
you can even do trucks. The

3731
02:14:03,982 --> 02:14:04,850
category.

3732
02:14:04,850 --> 02:14:06,850
>> over 5,000 pounds, whatever

3733
02:14:10,890 --> 02:14:10,789
the pounds or whatever.

3734
02:14:10,789 --> 02:14:12,191
Permitted can have those type

3735
02:14:12,191 --> 02:14:14,160
of signs, you can have signs

3736
02:14:14,160 --> 02:14:17,760
that say that limit hours that

3737
02:14:18,630 --> 02:14:20,990
it wouldn't be just 4. The

3738
02:14:20,990 --> 02:14:21,330
watermelon. It would be for

3739
02:14:21,330 --> 02:14:21,733
the agger, you know, the other

3740
02:14:21,733 --> 02:14:22,401
business that's down there as

3741
02:14:22,401 --> 02:14:23,903
well. So just something you

3742
02:14:23,903 --> 02:14:26,903
want to consider, you know,

3743
02:14:28,474 --> 02:14:30,209
with the timing. Whenever you

3744
02:14:30,209 --> 02:14:31,243
place this on the road. Also,

3745
02:14:31,243 --> 02:14:34,146
whatever sign each needs to go

3746
02:14:34,146 --> 02:14:36,182
through our county engineer to

3747
02:14:36,182 --> 02:14:37,115
make sure we're in accordance

3748
02:14:37,115 --> 02:14:37,950
with in utc, dea regulations.

3749
02:14:37,950 --> 02:14:40,552
And of course, we also want to

3750
02:14:40,552 --> 02:14:41,653
provide that language to the

3751
02:14:41,653 --> 02:14:42,387
sheriff's department because

3752
02:14:42,387 --> 02:14:45,625
they are the ones that enforce

3753
02:14:45,625 --> 02:14:46,325
the sign each so.

3754
02:14:46,325 --> 02:14:49,729
>> And that if I MAY, MISTER

3755
02:14:49,729 --> 02:14:53,299
Chair. You said you can't do

3756
02:14:53,299 --> 02:14:54,600
it to a specific Ty. There's a

3757
02:14:54,600 --> 02:14:55,267
lot of people in that

3758
02:14:55,267 --> 02:14:55,901
residential area who MAY be

3759
02:14:55,901 --> 02:14:58,700
hooking up to their horse

3760
02:14:58,700 --> 02:14:58,671
trailer. And pulling out of

3761
02:14:58,671 --> 02:15:01,710
their 5 o'clock in the

3762
02:15:02,241 --> 02:15:03,420
morning. Include my brother

3763
02:15:03,420 --> 02:15:03,742
that lives on that road.

3764
02:15:03,742 --> 02:15:06,742
Nothing route horse, but his

3765
02:15:07,246 --> 02:15:09,480
wife, Kim. So if you say,

3766
02:15:09,480 --> 02:15:11,417
well, we can't have any ag

3767
02:15:11,417 --> 02:15:14,417
trucks on the road. Before 7

3768
02:15:14,553 --> 02:15:15,254
and after 7. All those

3769
02:15:15,254 --> 02:15:18,254
residents, there's a pile of

3770
02:15:19,625 --> 02:15:22,461
horse people. Up and down that

3771
02:15:22,461 --> 02:15:23,950
road and there's a All right.

3772
02:15:23,950 --> 02:15:23,795
And there's also straight

3773
02:15:23,795 --> 02:15:24,463
years ago back over the dirt

3774
02:15:24,463 --> 02:15:26,798
road to there's rather than

3775
02:15:26,798 --> 02:15:27,532
Sarah. So we.

3776
02:15:27,532 --> 02:15:30,690
>> And I don't think the issue

3777
02:15:30,690 --> 02:15:33,572
we ran into last year. We

3778
02:15:33,572 --> 02:15:34,273
didn't have a problem with of

3779
02:15:34,273 --> 02:15:37,873
putting time on when they go

3780
02:15:38,210 --> 02:15:41,614
in and out of Are up times of

3781
02:15:41,614 --> 02:15:42,480
operation for That was a great

3782
02:15:42,480 --> 02:15:44,480
an agreement.

3783
02:15:44,684 --> 02:15:46,852
>> both parties signed and MR.

3784
02:15:46,852 --> 02:15:48,153
Lewis had to go back and

3785
02:15:48,153 --> 02:15:48,854
apologized. I'm trying to be

3786
02:15:48,854 --> 02:15:49,556
controversial delays, but he

3787
02:15:49,556 --> 02:15:51,123
had go back and said that was

3788
02:15:51,123 --> 02:15:52,725
not the case. And had to

3789
02:15:52,725 --> 02:15:54,725
retract it.

3790
02:16:03,350 --> 02:16:03,736
>> Did you retract that? It

3791
02:16:03,736 --> 02:16:07,306
got complicated. Yes or I did

3792
02:16:07,306 --> 02:16:08,700
not. Put anything in writing

3793
02:16:08,700 --> 02:16:10,407
retracting the temporary use

3794
02:16:11,410 --> 02:16:12,144
permit. In JUNE. We had

3795
02:16:12,144 --> 02:16:14,847
discussions, but I not been to

3796
02:16:14,847 --> 02:16:15,982
writing retracting

3797
02:16:15,982 --> 02:16:16,515
>> All right. So here, so this

3798
02:16:16,515 --> 02:16:18,915
to make this overly

3799
02:16:20,285 --> 02:16:21,787
complicated. I think you've

3800
02:16:21,787 --> 02:16:24,423
got coast. You've got customer

3801
02:16:24,423 --> 02:16:25,658
complaints and we got another

3802
02:16:25,658 --> 02:16:28,658
issue about I want the

3803
02:16:31,530 --> 02:16:32,165
attorney to review. Agreement

3804
02:16:32,165 --> 02:16:34,565
because there's things in

3805
02:16:34,701 --> 02:16:35,735
agreement have not been done.

3806
02:16:35,735 --> 02:16:36,469
And that's been brought.

3807
02:16:36,469 --> 02:16:37,136
That's now that's been brought

3808
02:16:37,136 --> 02:16:40,720
to my attention. Salted the

3809
02:16:40,720 --> 02:16:43,720
Chopin or what? And you're

3810
02:16:44,770 --> 02:16:44,677
talking about that and 90. You

3811
02:16:44,677 --> 02:16:45,311
show them. I the money

3812
02:16:45,311 --> 02:16:47,711
because, okay, good. That

3813
02:16:48,447 --> 02:16:49,716
operation. Not the yes, not

3814
02:16:49,716 --> 02:16:50,383
the head to the peace, but

3815
02:16:50,383 --> 02:16:53,860
this is things over-all I'm

3816
02:16:53,860 --> 02:16:54,921
trying to do is clear up. Some

3817
02:16:54,921 --> 02:16:55,621
controversy before it gets out

3818
02:16:55,621 --> 02:16:58,457
of hand. So want her to take

3819
02:16:58,457 --> 02:17:01,261
that. A document. Let the

3820
02:17:01,261 --> 02:17:02,429
attorney review it. And so

3821
02:17:02,429 --> 02:17:03,662
let's make sure that we don't

3822
02:17:03,662 --> 02:17:04,363
have a controversy that we

3823
02:17:04,363 --> 02:17:07,963
don't I think we already have

3824
02:17:10,503 --> 02:17:12,338
enough of those. All right. So

3825
02:17:12,338 --> 02:17:13,372
the point is that we can't

3826
02:17:13,372 --> 02:17:15,508
control it, if you want to

3827
02:17:15,508 --> 02:17:16,175
control, then almost done that

3828
02:17:16,175 --> 02:17:17,109
we're just going to have to

3829
02:17:17,109 --> 02:17:17,810
come go with the complaints

3830
02:17:17,810 --> 02:17:19,212
and that based on the board

3831
02:17:19,212 --> 02:17:20,213
doesn't want to control. Said

3832
02:17:20,213 --> 02:17:23,813
that So what I'm hearing, MR.

3833
02:17:24,851 --> 02:17:27,251
CHAIRMAN. I would suggest

3834
02:17:31,558 --> 02:17:32,258
that. Your hours of operations

3835
02:17:32,258 --> 02:17:35,258
with just daylight hours, but

3836
02:17:35,494 --> 02:17:36,830
usually. 70's to 7 ish. I

3837
02:17:36,830 --> 02:17:38,300
mean, that's and it's easy

3838
02:17:38,300 --> 02:17:40,599
enough to know if daylight are

3839
02:17:40,599 --> 02:17:41,330
not outside stuff. It's 7

3840
02:17:41,330 --> 02:17:41,734
o'clock or

3841
02:17:41,734 --> 02:17:44,134
>> 12 minutes till 7 and just

3842
02:17:46,972 --> 02:17:47,674
daylight hours. And 2

3843
02:17:47,674 --> 02:17:50,740
commercial vehicles. And that

3844
02:17:52,479 --> 02:17:55,348
would take away your euro.

3845
02:17:55,348 --> 02:17:56,516
Horse trailers does rodeo

3846
02:17:56,516 --> 02:17:58,151

3849
02:18:01,154 --> 02:18:03,489
it to be commercial. Check a

cdl. So but right. You're

3852
02:18:10,196 --> 02:18:10,896
telling me if I woke up to.

3853
02:18:10,896 --> 02:18:11,531
>> It didn't have enough snag

3854
02:18:11,531 --> 02:18:14,134
it. But I hope my into my

3855
02:18:14,134 --> 02:18:14,801

Georgia, but in head and 7,000

3860
02:18:23,109 --> 02:18:24,244
pounds, well, I don't I

3861
02:18:24,244 --> 02:18:26,450

Biggs it because of home. My

3863
02:18:26,746 --> 02:18:28,948
right of for you. I've got a

3864
02:18:28,948 --> 02:18:29,549
habit that they just hadn't.

3865
02:18:29,549 --> 02:18:31,549
>> Presentation on that

3866
02:18:31,951 --> 02:18:32,552

out.

3872
02:18:43,730 --> 02:18:44,431
>> The semis that are loaded.

3873
02:18:44,431 --> 02:18:45,131
Owner-operators, not the old

3874
02:18:45,131 --> 02:18:46,666
the buses they have caught up

3875
02:18:46,666 --> 02:18:50,266
of the services. Do you know?

3876
02:18:50,536 --> 02:18:52,936
It's a 2 pronged problem?

3877
02:18:57,100 --> 02:18:58,345
Well, more Well, I I don't and

3878
02:18:58,345 --> 02:19:01,945

3879
02:19:03,183 --> 02:19:03,884
didn't think folks, Boehner,

3880
02:19:03,884 --> 02:19:05,285
horse trailers also forces to

the rodeo or go work

3882
02:19:06,386 --> 02:19:07,530
elsewhere. What have you? I

3883
02:19:07,530 --> 02:19:10,530
didn't think they would run

3884
02:19:10,490 --> 02:19:11,224
afoul of any. Dot regulations

3885
02:19:11,224 --> 02:19:13,994
where they could be considered

3886
02:19:13,994 --> 02:19:14,527
commercial.

3887
02:19:14,527 --> 02:19:16,927
>> This isn't a dot

3888
02:19:20,660 --> 02:19:22,350
regulation. This is. Proposed

3889
02:19:22,350 --> 02:19:24,710
county but ended. According to

3890
02:19:24,710 --> 02:19:24,937
our attorney, what's good for

3891
02:19:24,937 --> 02:19:26,239
the goose is good for the

3892
02:19:26,239 --> 02:19:27,573
gander. So if you're shutting

3893
02:19:27,573 --> 02:19:30,573
down the watermelon truck to

3894
02:19:32,378 --> 02:19:32,979
shut down counter show that

3895
02:19:32,979 --> 02:19:35,682
let go on record for I

3896
02:19:35,682 --> 02:19:38,820
>> pro farmer. Probe Provost,

3897
02:19:39,686 --> 02:19:40,487
trailer pro watermelon.

3898
02:19:40,487 --> 02:19:42,550
>> I was just trying to find a

3899
02:19:42,550 --> 02:19:43,890
happy medium to because I'm

3900
02:19:43,890 --> 02:19:44,991
pro.

3901
02:19:44,991 --> 02:19:47,391
>> Residents of that area

3902
02:19:48,194 --> 02:19:49,529
that, you know, they don't

3903
02:19:49,529 --> 02:19:51,929
want watermelon truck lumber

3904
02:19:53,166 --> 02:19:53,867
o'clock at night but that

3905
02:19:53,867 --> 02:19:57,467
makes that But then again, I

3906
02:19:58,571 --> 02:19:59,739
can't see it from my house.

3907
02:19:59,739 --> 02:20:00,807
All right. What's your

3908
02:20:00,807 --> 02:20:01,941
suggestion, commissioner?

3909
02:20:01,941 --> 02:20:03,776
Well, my suggestion is if

3910
02:20:03,776 --> 02:20:05,212
board doesn't want to do any

3911
02:20:05,212 --> 02:20:07,280
type of of restrictions on the

3912
02:20:07,280 --> 02:20:08,448
watermelon truck. So in terms

3913
02:20:08,448 --> 02:20:09,149
of hours.

3914
02:20:09,149 --> 02:20:10,583
>> The news does it for us to

3915
02:20:10,583 --> 02:20:12,252
do Your discovery, this letter

3916
02:20:12,252 --> 02:20:12,785
run just the way it is and

3917
02:20:12,785 --> 02:20:15,185
we'll deal with the

3918
02:20:20,994 --> 02:20:21,628
complaints. Go ahead that.

3919
02:20:21,628 --> 02:20:22,295
>> I understand what her

3920
02:20:22,295 --> 02:20:25,295
mental also come into this

3921
02:20:25,766 --> 02:20:26,433
neighborhood. Great. Yes,

3922
02:20:26,433 --> 02:20:27,935
They're not grown. They're

3923
02:20:27,935 --> 02:20:31,535
right. Because I know that we

3924
02:20:31,838 --> 02:20:32,539
had drilled wells in that area

3925
02:20:32,539 --> 02:20:33,974
and it is set up for farming.

3926
02:20:33,974 --> 02:20:36,374
There's probably 20 a bench

3927
02:20:37,745 --> 02:20:38,445
will for their so. For

3928
02:20:38,445 --> 02:20:41,445
another, it's good that ranch

3929
02:20:42,249 --> 02:20:45,249
could, you know, cut side.

3930
02:20:45,619 --> 02:20:46,753
Produce a or be formed at one

3931
02:20:46,753 --> 02:20:47,387
point. So I mean, could be

3932
02:20:47,387 --> 02:20:48,155
more to it than just what

3933
02:20:48,155 --> 02:20:50,555
we've got going on.

3934
02:20:52,859 --> 02:20:54,859
>> Just just saying.

3935
02:20:55,280 --> 02:20:55,762
>> Much just and if you don't

3936
02:20:55,762 --> 02:20:56,463
want, if you don't want to put

3937
02:20:56,463 --> 02:20:58,640
any restrictions on the route

3938
02:20:58,640 --> 02:21:01,664
would just deal with deal with

3939
02:21:01,935 --> 02:21:03,603
complaints.

3940
02:21:03,603 --> 02:21:06,603
>> admission, MR. Chair, if I

3941
02:21:07,841 --> 02:21:08,208
MAY, I just want to.

3942
02:21:08,208 --> 02:21:09,910
>> That.

3943
02:21:09,910 --> 02:21:12,746
>> If it's not the will of the

3944
02:21:12,746 --> 02:21:14,814
board to regulate additional

3945
02:21:14,814 --> 02:21:15,615
option that MAY or MAY not

3946
02:21:15,615 --> 02:21:17,551
address some of the resident

3947
02:21:17,551 --> 02:21:18,585
complaints could be related to

3948
02:21:18,585 --> 02:21:19,419
speed limit. I'm not aware of

3949
02:21:19,419 --> 02:21:22,419
what the current speed limit

3950
02:21:23,220 --> 02:21:26,793
is, but if it if it's lowered

3951
02:21:26,793 --> 02:21:28,195
to say 25 miles per hour, that

3952
02:21:28,195 --> 02:21:28,896
MAY help alleviate some of the

3953
02:21:28,896 --> 02:21:31,296
complaints, I believe related

3954
02:21:31,932 --> 02:21:35,532
to maybe noise. Just as an

3955
02:21:36,169 --> 02:21:36,870
additional suggestion.

3956
02:21:36,870 --> 02:21:38,772
>> And look into this Trucks

3957
02:21:38,772 --> 02:21:39,506
are going to slow for most

3958
02:21:39,506 --> 02:21:40,174
people think that Not going to

3959
02:21:40,174 --> 02:21:42,209
tell us about the engineer

3960
02:21:42,209 --> 02:21:44,609
that one. I think.

3961
02:21:45,279 --> 02:21:46,313
>> On that when we MAY need a

3962
02:21:46,313 --> 02:21:47,130
traffic study and then she

3963
02:21:47,130 --> 02:21:50,130
nears shaking his head. Yes,

3964
02:21:50,317 --> 02:21:51,985
if it back and that's normally

3965
02:21:51,985 --> 02:21:52,686
aiming their state laws for 25

3966
02:21:52,686 --> 02:21:54,988
miles per hour. You know, in

3967
02:21:54,988 --> 02:21:56,190
your neighborhood center. But

3968
02:21:56,190 --> 02:21:57,624
once you get on to a collector

3969
02:21:57,624 --> 02:22:00,594
road and this is probably

3970
02:22:00,594 --> 02:22:02,429
considered collect collector

3971
02:22:02,429 --> 02:22:03,830
road, then there'll have to be

3972
02:22:03,830 --> 02:22:04,865
traffic studies. All right. So

3973
02:22:04,865 --> 02:22:05,833
let's eliminate the red tape.

3974
02:22:05,833 --> 02:22:07,601
Because number one, if you put

3975
02:22:07,601 --> 02:22:08,268
a speed limit, sign out there,

3976
02:22:08,268 --> 02:22:08,869
was go pay attention to it

3977
02:22:08,869 --> 02:22:10,771
than I have to have the

3978
02:22:10,771 --> 02:22:12,771
deputies out there.

3979
02:22:13,540 --> 02:22:14,307
>> So this is like it this is

3980
02:22:14,307 --> 02:22:15,750
collective issue that has no

3981
02:22:15,750 --> 02:22:18,750
response to it or knew

3982
02:22:19,279 --> 02:22:20,800
reasonable response because?

3983
02:22:20,800 --> 02:22:23,160
>> And I even when we had

3984
02:22:23,160 --> 02:22:25,160
hours last year.

3985
02:22:27,200 --> 02:22:27,888
>> 7 to 7 or where it was,

3986
02:22:27,888 --> 02:22:30,858
they still run past hours. And

3987
02:22:30,858 --> 02:22:33,760
and we we had to tried to talk

3988
02:22:33,760 --> 02:22:35,290
to him and they still ignored

3989
02:22:35,290 --> 02:22:35,729
it. So it's almost like you

3990
02:22:35,729 --> 02:22:36,998
don't have control over your

3991
02:22:36,998 --> 02:22:40,100
dog on road, which is an

3992
02:22:40,100 --> 02:22:42,350
aggravation to me is anybody

3993
02:22:42,350 --> 02:22:43,971
can do whatever they want out

3994
02:22:43,971 --> 02:22:45,506
there and it doesn't making a

3995
02:22:45,506 --> 02:22:46,173
difference whether this

3996
02:22:46,173 --> 02:22:48,173
residential people either.

3997
02:22:48,809 --> 02:22:49,476
We've got huge residential

3998
02:22:49,476 --> 02:22:50,143
communities continued that

3999
02:22:50,143 --> 02:22:52,513
community is continuing to

4000
02:22:52,513 --> 02:22:55,216
build. You have more have a

4001
02:22:55,216 --> 02:22:55,883
lot of traffic out there. So I

4002
02:22:55,883 --> 02:22:56,950
think it you were going to

4003
02:22:56,950 --> 02:22:59,950
have to start thinking about

4004
02:23:01,855 --> 02:23:02,556
the residents there versus.

4005
02:23:02,556 --> 02:23:06,260
What is going on out on that

4006
02:23:06,260 --> 02:23:06,994
for peace. One piece of

4007
02:23:06,994 --> 02:23:07,595
property. And so if that's the

4008
02:23:07,595 --> 02:23:09,930
case, don't want to do

4009
02:23:09,930 --> 02:23:11,320
anything that's fine. But I

4010
02:23:11,320 --> 02:23:12,566
want that document that I get

4011
02:23:12,566 --> 02:23:14,535
to her. Yesterday was the was

4012
02:23:14,535 --> 02:23:15,402
the lawsuit. I want that

4013
02:23:15,402 --> 02:23:16,700
reviewed because he was

4014
02:23:16,700 --> 02:23:18,272
brought up to my attention

4015
02:23:18,272 --> 02:23:19,106
yesterday. There were there

4016
02:23:19,106 --> 02:23:19,773
are things in there that have

4017
02:23:19,773 --> 02:23:22,773
not been done. That should

4018
02:23:23,978 --> 02:23:24,745
have been done. If I get a

4019
02:23:24,745 --> 02:23:26,681
controversy based on the facts

4020
02:23:26,681 --> 02:23:28,282
of this conversation I had

4021
02:23:28,282 --> 02:23:28,982
yesterday, I want to nip the

4022
02:23:28,982 --> 02:23:33,182
bud before it gets too out of

4023
02:23:34,210 --> 02:23:35,890
hand. So that's my that's

4024
02:23:35,890 --> 02:23:36,590
that's my only thing I have to

4025
02:23:36,590 --> 02:23:38,250
say. But the right, I want to

4026
02:23:38,250 --> 02:23:38,693
move on to this because I

4027
02:23:38,693 --> 02:23:41,693
don't see any resolution to

4028
02:23:44,798 --> 02:23:45,465
it. On your legislative just

4029
02:23:45,465 --> 02:23:47,268
briefly state. What's going

4030
02:23:47,268 --> 02:23:50,268
what's going to cause some

4031
02:23:51,238 --> 02:23:51,939
problems? I we MAY have. We'll

4032
02:23:51,939 --> 02:23:52,606
see how well term term limits

4033
02:23:52,606 --> 02:23:55,600
passed the house yesterday.

4034
02:23:55,909 --> 02:23:56,644
Went to the House floor. The

4035
02:23:56,644 --> 02:23:57,611
Senate is still sitting in the

4036
02:23:57,611 --> 02:24:00,110
first committee. It hasn't

4037
02:24:01,615 --> 02:24:05,520
moved, which is a good thing

4038
02:24:05,520 --> 02:24:05,686
there are with term limits

4039
02:24:05,686 --> 02:24:07,686
potentially maybe more

4040
02:24:07,822 --> 02:24:09,957
positive than what we

4041
02:24:09,957 --> 02:24:10,557
anticipated. Some of the

4042
02:24:10,557 --> 02:24:13,557
things you need to pay

4043
02:24:13,728 --> 02:24:14,428
attention to is the charter

4044
02:24:14,428 --> 02:24:17,428
communications is put a bill

4045
02:24:17,598 --> 02:24:20,935
to to. If we if we have to

4046
02:24:20,935 --> 02:24:21,769
move any facilities, broadband

4047
02:24:21,769 --> 02:24:22,403
facilities, if you're going to

4048
02:24:22,403 --> 02:24:26,300
do a new road project or

4049
02:24:26,107 --> 02:24:27,642
whatever. County would be

4050
02:24:27,642 --> 02:24:28,309
responsible for payment of

4051
02:24:28,309 --> 02:24:31,309
that facilities had just to

4052
02:24:31,845 --> 02:24:36,450
give me an idea the other day,

4053
02:24:36,316 --> 02:24:36,985
just 2 more mile little about

4054
02:24:36,985 --> 02:24:37,685
$211,000. And that does not

4055
02:24:37,685 --> 02:24:40,454
include to the relocation of

4056
02:24:40,454 --> 02:24:41,122
the facility. So this is

4057
02:24:41,122 --> 02:24:44,122
something you got to start

4058
02:24:47,328 --> 02:24:47,995
paying attention to rpc

4059
02:24:47,995 --> 02:24:50,995
Illuminations as which is a

4060
02:24:52,333 --> 02:24:53,534
senators that to potentially

4061
02:24:53,534 --> 02:24:55,350
be eliminated with that. We

4062
02:24:55,350 --> 02:24:55,736
thought that was good. But

4063
02:24:55,736 --> 02:24:57,572
seems to have somebody put it

4064
02:24:57,572 --> 02:25:01,172
on the oxygen and its crime

4065
02:25:01,475 --> 02:25:03,444
started breathing again. Unity

4066
02:25:03,444 --> 02:25:05,844
got modified to yesterday

4067
02:25:08,616 --> 02:25:09,484
believe it's still 1, 2,

4068
02:25:09,484 --> 02:25:11,719
501 million, which is not too

4069
02:25:11,719 --> 02:25:12,620
awful bad. But the issue is is

4070
02:25:12,620 --> 02:25:15,323
a language is still there.

4071
02:25:15,323 --> 02:25:16,657
That's detrimental to the

4072
02:25:16,657 --> 02:25:18,393
county account that that

4073
02:25:18,393 --> 02:25:19,930
language because basically a

4074
02:25:19,930 --> 02:25:19,794
stipulated said we the county

4075
02:25:19,794 --> 02:25:22,629
commissioner can go over the

4076
02:25:22,629 --> 02:25:24,532
limit. We can negotiate over

4077
02:25:24,532 --> 02:25:25,166
the limit and that we're

4078
02:25:25,166 --> 02:25:26,200
trying to remove that. We

4079
02:25:26,200 --> 02:25:27,350
don't want that. That's the

4080
02:25:27,350 --> 02:25:30,350
trial lawyers are upset now

4081
02:25:30,371 --> 02:25:32,540
that it went from 500 to a

4082
02:25:32,540 --> 02:25:34,241
million. We want to make sure

4083
02:25:34,241 --> 02:25:34,876
there are a little bit more

4084
02:25:34,876 --> 02:25:37,276
upset taking that because

4085
02:25:40,915 --> 02:25:43,840
detrimental for us. I did find

4086
02:25:43,840 --> 02:25:46,200
that those those funding now

4087
02:25:46,200 --> 02:25:47,188
for the low car. That's the

4088
02:25:47,188 --> 02:25:47,855
new study of the reservoir.

4089
02:25:47,855 --> 02:25:48,589
This up in Highlands County

4090
02:25:48,589 --> 02:25:52,789
will store to Earth that has a

4091
02:25:53,394 --> 02:25:55,394
200,000 Square foot. That's

4092
02:25:55,663 --> 02:25:56,364
the one for store in water

4093
02:25:56,364 --> 02:25:59,364
above water above the ground,

4094
02:25:59,567 --> 02:26:00,268
which I think 3 options. One

4095
02:26:00,268 --> 02:26:01,202
is live in Florida water, but

4096
02:26:01,202 --> 02:26:03,538
Brown one, 15 foot one, 17

4097
02:26:03,538 --> 02:26:04,439
foot. So I don't know what the

4098
02:26:04,439 --> 02:26:06,507
option is, lady at what they

4099
02:26:06,507 --> 02:26:09,611
do, they do have the go ahead

4100
02:26:09,611 --> 02:26:10,445
to purchase a land as well. As

4101
02:26:10,445 --> 02:26:12,460
with this way. The bill went

4102
02:26:12,460 --> 02:26:14,883
too from the Senate yesterday.

4103
02:26:14,883 --> 02:26:15,483
37 0 and with the House

4104
02:26:15,483 --> 02:26:16,217
probably passed out the

4105
02:26:16,217 --> 02:26:19,817
governor to sign be signed off

4106
02:26:21,756 --> 02:26:23,591
on. Also have a bill that's

4107
02:26:23,591 --> 02:26:24,159
moving pretty good. This is

4108
02:26:24,159 --> 02:26:24,826
removing all special

4109
02:26:24,826 --> 02:26:27,826
assessment. So we have some

4110
02:26:28,363 --> 02:26:29,970
special assessments here. We

4111
02:26:29,970 --> 02:26:31,497
have some lighting assessments

4112
02:26:32,501 --> 02:26:34,468
that we have out here. It will

4113
02:26:34,468 --> 02:26:35,603
remove all remove that from us

4114
02:26:35,603 --> 02:26:37,639
being able to do those who

4115
02:26:37,639 --> 02:26:38,306
will have to be go back to

4116
02:26:38,306 --> 02:26:41,306
regular tax payer, be value

4117
02:26:43,278 --> 02:26:44,245
revenue tax. They also have a

4118
02:26:44,245 --> 02:26:46,348
bill to move with additional

4119
02:26:46,348 --> 02:26:47,150
homestead for people who are

4120
02:26:47,150 --> 02:26:47,715
rental properties. You have

4121
02:26:47,715 --> 02:26:49,484
rental properties that have a

4122
02:26:49,484 --> 02:26:50,117
long-term lease over 6 months.

4123
02:26:50,117 --> 02:26:50,819
You'll be able to have

4124
02:26:50,819 --> 02:26:53,219
homestead exemptions on those

4125
02:26:54,989 --> 02:26:56,758
rental properties. That's a

4126
02:26:56,758 --> 02:26:57,926
good use for Homestead it. So

4127
02:26:57,926 --> 02:26:59,610
the other things is that

4128
02:26:59,610 --> 02:27:01,280
they're moving pretty quickly.

4129
02:27:01,280 --> 02:27:02,964
There's a lot of confusion in

4130
02:27:02,964 --> 02:27:05,333
the legislature, little bit of

4131
02:27:05,333 --> 02:27:07,733
infighting. The governor wants

4132
02:27:08,703 --> 02:27:10,572
$1000 per homestead individual

4133
02:27:10,572 --> 02:27:12,507
to to those folks and that

4134
02:27:12,507 --> 02:27:14,175
that's probably not going to

4135
02:27:14,175 --> 02:27:14,909
go. We don't think that's

4136
02:27:14,909 --> 02:27:18,509
going to The scent of the

4137
02:27:18,946 --> 02:27:20,548
House is doing reduction in a

4138
02:27:20,548 --> 02:27:21,249
number of different sales

4139
02:27:21,249 --> 02:27:24,249
taxes. Sales tax went from 6%

4140
02:27:25,220 --> 02:27:25,887
to 5.2 5%. And then there's

4141
02:27:25,887 --> 02:27:26,588
other taxes that are being

4142
02:27:26,588 --> 02:27:29,224
cut, corporate tax and things

4143
02:27:29,224 --> 02:27:30,910
of that sort. So asked

4144
02:27:30,910 --> 02:27:31,225
administrator to start paying

4145
02:27:31,225 --> 02:27:33,127
attention that because the

4146
02:27:33,127 --> 02:27:34,962
reason for that is because we

4147
02:27:34,962 --> 02:27:37,650
are going to be affected by

4148
02:27:37,650 --> 02:27:38,320
passes and we're starting to a

4149
02:27:38,320 --> 02:27:39,340
budget process and she needs

4150
02:27:39,340 --> 02:27:41,434
to understand everything. It's

4151
02:27:44,705 --> 02:27:46,541
going impact the budget. Also,

4152
02:27:46,541 --> 02:27:48,509
those Dozier is even though we

4153
02:27:48,509 --> 02:27:49,244
we've sent back all of our

4154
02:27:49,244 --> 02:27:49,978
information. We do still think

4155
02:27:49,978 --> 02:27:53,140
the rule counties are going to

4156
02:27:53,140 --> 02:27:53,782
be affected too much. But is

4157
02:27:53,782 --> 02:27:54,949
going to start look at the

4158
02:27:54,949 --> 02:27:56,949
necessary and unnecessary

4159
02:28:01,220 --> 02:28:02,323
expenses? And going to be

4160
02:28:02,323 --> 02:28:04,326
minding Councils the like the

4161
02:28:04,326 --> 02:28:05,326
regional Planning Council know

4162
02:28:05,326 --> 02:28:07,329
that this is a survivor. Well,

4163
02:28:07,329 --> 02:28:08,630
regional planning councils

4164
02:28:08,630 --> 02:28:08,730
clear that when I told you got

4165
02:28:08,730 --> 02:28:11,130
this started breathing air

4166
02:28:12,534 --> 02:28:14,369
back into the building. But

4167
02:28:14,369 --> 02:28:15,537
what I'm talking about now is

4168
02:28:15,537 --> 02:28:16,237
that they'll be looking

4169
02:28:16,237 --> 02:28:18,390
individual counties and look

4170
02:28:18,390 --> 02:28:18,740
at your necessary and

4171
02:28:18,740 --> 02:28:20,275
unnecessary expenditures. And

4172
02:28:20,275 --> 02:28:20,876
my question is, what is the

4173
02:28:20,876 --> 02:28:22,876
definition unnecessary

4174
02:28:24,880 --> 02:28:25,847
expenditure? So I I think

4175
02:28:25,847 --> 02:28:27,749
going to have a real difficult

4176
02:28:27,749 --> 02:28:30,749
budget time this year. It's

4177
02:28:30,819 --> 02:28:33,819
going to be very interesting.

4178
02:28:34,723 --> 02:28:35,556
Hold onto your hat, especially

4179
02:28:35,556 --> 02:28:36,791
when they're start to come to

4180
02:28:36,791 --> 02:28:37,792
doing some of these bill

4181
02:28:37,792 --> 02:28:39,595
cuttings. I think the property

4182
02:28:39,595 --> 02:28:41,995
taxes eliminates your property

4183
02:28:42,531 --> 02:28:44,866
tax was a media fodder that

4184
02:28:44,866 --> 02:28:47,468
the governor put out there.

4185
02:28:47,468 --> 02:28:48,170
For that, I think he fully

4186
02:28:48,170 --> 02:28:48,904
understood that there was no

4187
02:28:48,904 --> 02:28:49,605
way you can do that. That made

4188
02:28:49,605 --> 02:28:52,600
it 51 billion dollar hole in

4189
02:28:52,600 --> 02:28:54,109
the state of Florida. So I

4190
02:28:54,109 --> 02:28:55,760
think they're trying to figure

4191
02:28:55,760 --> 02:28:56,311
out what they can do to help

4192
02:28:56,311 --> 02:28:57,112
people on their property tax

4193
02:28:57,112 --> 02:28:58,813
right now. But wrote a letter

4194
02:28:58,813 --> 02:28:59,681
to each one of the

4195
02:28:59,681 --> 02:29:01,681
representatives on Saturday

4196
02:29:03,452 --> 02:29:05,453
for specific bill and said

4197
02:29:05,453 --> 02:29:06,880
that, you know, the polls in

4198
02:29:06,880 --> 02:29:06,788
the state of Florida are

4199
02:29:06,788 --> 02:29:07,655
looking for people be helped

4200
02:29:07,655 --> 02:29:08,357
on homeowners insurance and

4201
02:29:08,357 --> 02:29:10,757
car insurance. Car insurance

4202
02:29:12,294 --> 02:29:12,961
is the highest in the nation.

4203
02:29:12,961 --> 02:29:14,961
Homeowner. Sure homeowners

4204
02:29:16,664 --> 02:29:17,566
insurance is high. And

4205
02:29:17,566 --> 02:29:18,700
nobody's doing anything about

4206
02:29:18,700 --> 02:29:19,868
it. But we will go after

4207
02:29:19,868 --> 02:29:20,602
people for the county

4208
02:29:20,602 --> 02:29:21,437
commissioners and school board

4209
02:29:21,437 --> 02:29:22,104
people on term limits it. And

4210
02:29:22,104 --> 02:29:25,104
that's reason. I wrote the

4211
02:29:25,273 --> 02:29:25,974
letter and said you people are

4212
02:29:25,974 --> 02:29:26,642
are good and going after low

4213
02:29:26,642 --> 02:29:27,309
hanging fruit you want you

4214
02:29:27,309 --> 02:29:30,909
don't want to deal with the

4215
02:29:31,279 --> 02:29:34,716
tough stuff. And so on. So I

4216
02:29:34,716 --> 02:29:35,417
get my language move it.

4217
02:29:35,417 --> 02:29:38,417
They're not dealing with the

4218
02:29:39,388 --> 02:29:41,257
things that's necessary and

4219
02:29:41,257 --> 02:29:42,725
that we do with every single

4220
02:29:42,725 --> 02:29:43,459
day there. Number Preemptions

4221
02:29:43,459 --> 02:29:47,659
as of the other week was over.

4222
02:29:48,290 --> 02:29:48,697
51. And I'm not sure how pass

4223
02:29:48,697 --> 02:29:51,970
but component mandates are

4224
02:29:51,867 --> 02:29:53,969
continuing to fly out and

4225
02:29:53,969 --> 02:29:54,670
collect this one with moving

4226
02:29:54,670 --> 02:29:57,700
the broadband facilities out

4227
02:29:57,272 --> 02:29:57,973
of the right away. I had a

4228
02:29:57,973 --> 02:29:59,274
flippant answer the other day

4229
02:29:59,274 --> 02:30:02,274
on the meeting with some

4230
02:30:03,312 --> 02:30:05,313
folks. Just pave over. They

4231
02:30:05,313 --> 02:30:05,980
go. They go bad. You dig it up

4232
02:30:05,980 --> 02:30:08,980
and you replace that yours.

4233
02:30:10,386 --> 02:30:12,530
You replace salt yourself. You

4234
02:30:12,530 --> 02:30:12,721
know, me, that's that's a

4235
02:30:12,721 --> 02:30:13,389
nose, flippant answer. But

4236
02:30:13,389 --> 02:30:14,560
guess what, some people to

4237
02:30:14,560 --> 02:30:17,159
say? Well, that was a good

4238
02:30:17,159 --> 02:30:18,126
answer. But to unfortunately,

4239
02:30:18,126 --> 02:30:20,696
you know, that that's going to

4240
02:30:20,696 --> 02:30:21,930
come down to trying to figure

4241
02:30:21,930 --> 02:30:22,531
out why doing this. And we're

4242
02:30:22,531 --> 02:30:23,198
going to be quite frank

4243
02:30:23,198 --> 02:30:25,198
charter communications has

4244
02:30:26,935 --> 02:30:27,637
paid out bunch of checks. And

4245
02:30:27,637 --> 02:30:31,106
so it's things point to move

4246
02:30:31,106 --> 02:30:31,707
through it. So we have right

4247
02:30:31,707 --> 02:30:34,707
in the middle of budget

4248
02:30:35,510 --> 02:30:36,111
negotiations right take a

4249
02:30:36,111 --> 02:30:39,711
look. We get to the the

4250
02:30:40,582 --> 02:30:42,384
appropriation. How's that they

4251
02:30:42,384 --> 02:30:43,819
are. The Senate has both of

4252
02:30:43,819 --> 02:30:45,421
our appropriations in and they

4253
02:30:45,421 --> 02:30:46,655
and the House only has one of

4254
02:30:46,655 --> 02:30:47,323
the appropriations. The house

4255
02:30:47,323 --> 02:30:48,230
does not have the fire and

4256
02:30:48,230 --> 02:30:50,825
we're trying to push it along

4257
02:30:50,825 --> 02:30:52,561
to get it in there. But the

4258
02:30:52,561 --> 02:30:53,262
issue, the vice a versa, vice

4259
02:30:53,262 --> 02:30:56,262
versa. Yeah, Senate that have

4260
02:30:57,999 --> 02:30:59,534
it. Still working, trying to

4261
02:30:59,534 --> 02:31:00,268
get that pushed in there

4262
02:31:00,268 --> 02:31:03,268
because I think that that's

4263
02:31:04,500 --> 02:31:05,207
necessary because obviously

4264
02:31:05,207 --> 02:31:06,800
we're trying to plan for a

4265
02:31:06,800 --> 02:31:06,708
number of homes that between

4266
02:31:06,708 --> 02:31:10,908
MAY come in here. But we need

4267
02:31:10,980 --> 02:31:13,949
that. The last thing is it's

4268
02:31:13,949 --> 02:31:14,650
it's a little something since

4269
02:31:14,650 --> 02:31:17,752
I'm the CHAIRMAN Of the board

4270
02:31:17,752 --> 02:31:18,387
of trustees at the hospital.

4271
02:31:18,387 --> 02:31:19,880
This come to us the other

4272
02:31:19,880 --> 02:31:22,880
couple weeks ago, Brian asked

4273
02:31:24,727 --> 02:31:25,594
me to talk about it. Back The

4274
02:31:25,594 --> 02:31:26,195
people in the community, by

4275
02:31:26,195 --> 02:31:28,595
their insurance on the

4276
02:31:31,333 --> 02:31:32,340
marketplace. The market place

4277
02:31:32,340 --> 02:31:32,701
receives an enhanced premium

4278
02:31:32,701 --> 02:31:35,701
tax credit from the federal

4279
02:31:36,339 --> 02:31:37,139
government. So that allows

4280
02:31:37,139 --> 02:31:38,975
people to buy health insurance

4281
02:31:38,975 --> 02:31:41,975
at a lower level. Alright,

4282
02:31:43,545 --> 02:31:44,247
lower cost. That premium tax

4283
02:31:44,247 --> 02:31:47,649
credit sunsets at the end of

4284
02:31:47,649 --> 02:31:48,718
this year. So you say to

4285
02:31:48,718 --> 02:31:49,585
yourself, what does that mean

4286
02:31:49,585 --> 02:31:53,185
to us? Well, and in our

4287
02:31:53,322 --> 02:31:55,322
county, there's 4,000 380

4288
02:31:56,158 --> 02:31:57,493
people that their insurance

4289
02:31:57,493 --> 02:32:01,930
premiums will now go up over

4290
02:32:04,767 --> 02:32:05,734
100 percent. So now what? So

4291
02:32:05,734 --> 02:32:06,401
what I'm asking you I would

4292
02:32:06,401 --> 02:32:09,401
like for the commission to

4293
02:32:10,139 --> 02:32:12,341
write a letter and address it

4294
02:32:12,341 --> 02:32:14,341
to Representative Franklin

4295
02:32:16,379 --> 02:32:17,413
Senator Scott to support this

4296
02:32:17,413 --> 02:32:20,413
enhanced premium tax credit to

4297
02:32:22,918 --> 02:32:24,420
be reissued. A reissued by the

4298
02:32:24,420 --> 02:32:27,490
before the end of the year.

4299
02:32:27,490 --> 02:32:31,900
It's an says on the end 2025.

4300
02:32:31,527 --> 02:32:33,280
But we include those centers.

4301
02:32:33,280 --> 02:32:33,662
is glued the Senate and the

4302
02:32:33,662 --> 02:32:35,662
House reputed Congressman

4303
02:32:37,233 --> 02:32:38,534
Congresswoman Franklin

4304
02:32:38,534 --> 02:32:41,534
probably do Senator, Moody and

4305
02:32:42,772 --> 02:32:45,772
Senator Scott and can Franklin

4306
02:32:46,509 --> 02:32:47,576
get a consensus for affair.

4307
02:32:47,576 --> 02:32:48,277
That will get prepared Senate

4308
02:32:48,277 --> 02:32:50,680
place to info. Appreciate all

4309
02:32:50,680 --> 02:32:50,980
right. You for ok? Thank you,

4310
02:32:50,980 --> 02:32:52,980
sir.

4311
02:32:54,383 --> 02:32:57,983
>> I'd like for the you a

4312
02:33:01,724 --> 02:33:02,759
direct around. In a straighter

4313
02:33:02,759 --> 02:33:03,426
to come back and give this

4314
02:33:03,426 --> 02:33:04,860
report. Did you know we've

4315
02:33:04,860 --> 02:33:07,860
looking for that quarterly and

4316
02:33:09,164 --> 02:33:10,265
>> when I talked to Last week

4317
02:33:10,265 --> 02:33:12,234
week before asking about the

4318
02:33:12,234 --> 02:33:14,270
water line you're putting in

4319
02:33:14,270 --> 02:33:16,380
from the project south of

4320
02:33:16,380 --> 02:33:17,240
Buckhead Ridge coming back to

4321
02:33:17,240 --> 02:33:18,410
the tower. And he said he did

4322
02:33:18,410 --> 02:33:18,607
not have a permit with them.

4323
02:33:18,607 --> 02:33:21,607
He said he thinks it

4324
02:33:24,513 --> 02:33:25,748
permitted, but with d e p

4325
02:33:25,748 --> 02:33:26,482
>> dot. But as being in

4326
02:33:26,482 --> 02:33:28,151
Stoughton, I don't have to go.

4327
02:33:28,151 --> 02:33:29,218
He says they can come and

4328
02:33:29,218 --> 02:33:29,919
connect. Dan, I don't

4329
02:33:29,919 --> 02:33:32,188
understand that. But I would

4330
02:33:32,188 --> 02:33:35,788
like to know more about that.

4331
02:33:36,158 --> 02:33:37,494
Out. All the things going on.

4332
02:33:37,494 --> 02:33:38,228
Just little amazed at that

4333
02:33:38,228 --> 02:33:38,861
because we still haven't had a

4334
02:33:38,861 --> 02:33:41,261
response back from Glades

4335
02:33:41,497 --> 02:33:42,131
County how they want us to

4336
02:33:42,131 --> 02:33:43,399
handle all the emergency

4337
02:33:43,399 --> 02:33:45,668
management, that type of

4338
02:33:45,668 --> 02:33:46,369
thing. So it looks like that

4339
02:33:46,369 --> 02:33:47,203
developments going on and we

4340
02:33:47,203 --> 02:33:50,803
don't have a solution. We have

4341
02:33:54,877 --> 02:33:57,146
we have the but emergency in

4342
02:33:57,146 --> 02:33:58,448
medical side covered. But the

4343
02:33:58,448 --> 02:34:00,820
fire said of, you know, we're

4344
02:34:00,820 --> 02:34:01,510
doing is mutual aid. Industry

4345
02:34:01,510 --> 02:34:04,287
be so that needs to be looked

4346
02:34:04,287 --> 02:34:07,287
at before that. They continue

4347
02:34:08,257 --> 02:34:10,526
Think. But a half. We could

4348
02:34:10,526 --> 02:34:11,260
come give us report about

4349
02:34:11,260 --> 02:34:14,260
that. And then the first

4350
02:34:14,297 --> 02:34:15,731
meeting in MAY asked we allow

4351
02:34:15,731 --> 02:34:17,767
a company that 2 economic

4352
02:34:17,767 --> 02:34:20,167
development group is working

4353
02:34:20,936 --> 02:34:21,638
with. They're looking to do

4354
02:34:21,638 --> 02:34:24,380
basically everything. We have

4355
02:34:24,807 --> 02:34:27,807
left in industrial park except

4356
02:34:29,211 --> 02:34:30,813
for the lots of see taxiway.

4357
02:34:30,813 --> 02:34:31,547
6. They looking to do a lot.

4358
02:34:31,547 --> 02:34:32,248
They come in give they gave us

4359
02:34:32,248 --> 02:34:35,248
presentation of the day. That

4360
02:34:36,352 --> 02:34:37,119
was really, really, really

4361
02:34:37,119 --> 02:34:38,554
good presentation. If the

4362
02:34:38,554 --> 02:34:39,221
board sees is and I would hope

4363
02:34:39,221 --> 02:34:41,324
we get get their support to

4364
02:34:41,324 --> 02:34:42,958
continue on with the and be

4365
02:34:42,958 --> 02:34:45,728
able to allow them to put all

4366
02:34:45,728 --> 02:34:46,695
6 lots in one place and we

4367
02:34:46,695 --> 02:34:48,131
some lots that we have there

4368
02:34:48,131 --> 02:34:51,131
now that are misaligned. But

4369
02:34:54,471 --> 02:34:55,371
there are. It could building

4370
02:34:55,371 --> 02:34:56,105
so we could work on all of

4371
02:34:56,105 --> 02:34:58,642
that. The first meeting in MAY

Good afternoon. I'm Michael

We look forward to talking to

4448
02:37:54,992 --> 02:37:55,960
you and your questions and I

4449
02:37:55,960 --> 02:37:56,560
can almost assure will not

4450
02:37:56,560 --> 02:37:59,560
need to call the police

4451
02:38:03,367 --> 02:38:04,368
because this presentation in

4452
02:38:04,368 --> 02:38:06,537
your rfq, there's really 2

4453
02:38:06,537 --> 02:38:07,238
major components. Just kind of

4454
02:38:07,238 --> 02:38:09,730
the advocacy ponitz component

4455
02:38:09,730 --> 02:38:09,841
representing the county.

4456
02:38:09,841 --> 02:38:10,541
Understand what's going on in

4457
02:38:10,541 --> 02:38:12,941
the county, particularly the

4458
02:38:13,778 --> 02:38:14,445
rich to water environment. And

4459
02:38:14,445 --> 02:38:15,145
then there's the technical

4460
02:38:15,145 --> 02:38:16,313
pieces of that understanding

4461
02:38:16,313 --> 02:38:17,148
how the infrastructure all

4462
02:38:17,148 --> 02:38:19,217
fits together. So that's kind

4463
02:38:19,217 --> 02:38:20,351
of how we organize this today

4464
02:38:20,351 --> 02:38:21,819
and you're going to see a

4465
02:38:21,819 --> 02:38:23,819
theme throughout this

4466
02:38:24,121 --> 02:38:24,789
presentation. We're going to

4467
02:38:24,789 --> 02:38:25,957
talk about the All-Star, a

4468
02:38:25,957 --> 02:38:29,557
team that we put together for

4469
02:38:29,727 --> 02:38:30,661
you Okeechobee County. We're

4470
02:38:30,661 --> 02:38:32,329
going to talk about the the

4471
02:38:32,329 --> 02:38:32,997
bench that Wgi brings where

4472
02:38:32,997 --> 02:38:35,933
national firm based out of

4473
02:38:35,933 --> 02:38:38,636
West Palm Beach. And we have

4474
02:38:38,636 --> 02:38:39,303
6, 7, 100 resources engineer,

4475
02:38:39,303 --> 02:38:42,106
scientist planners to be a

4476
02:38:42,106 --> 02:38:45,106
resource for the county. We

4477
02:38:45,276 --> 02:38:46,144
have local knowledge. We've

4478
02:38:46,144 --> 02:38:47,111
work with the agencies that

4479
02:38:47,111 --> 02:38:48,646
are doing things that

4480
02:38:48,646 --> 02:38:49,247
potentially affect the county

4481
02:38:49,247 --> 02:38:49,881
both positively and

4482
02:38:49,881 --> 02:38:51,916
negatively. We know those

4483
02:38:51,916 --> 02:38:52,617
agencies, many of us actually

4484
02:38:52,617 --> 02:38:55,617
worked for those agencies at

4485
02:38:57,822 --> 02:38:58,756
one point. We have offices

4486
02:38:58,756 --> 02:39:00,224
throughout the state of

4487
02:39:00,224 --> 02:39:01,892
Florida and Washington, D.C.,

4488
02:39:01,892 --> 02:39:03,695
where you need us the most

4489
02:39:03,695 --> 02:39:04,429
where where where brown these

4490
02:39:04,429 --> 02:39:05,130
agencies and where they are at

4491
02:39:05,130 --> 02:39:05,797
the center is where they have

4492
02:39:05,797 --> 02:39:08,797
their leadership so we can

4493
02:39:10,234 --> 02:39:11,536
reach out to them. We can. We

4494
02:39:11,536 --> 02:39:12,503
bring unprecedented grant

4495
02:39:12,503 --> 02:39:13,471
writing and funding support.

4496
02:39:13,471 --> 02:39:15,240
We know that eventually as

4497
02:39:15,240 --> 02:39:15,974
things are identified, we have

4498
02:39:15,974 --> 02:39:16,674
to figure out a way to pay and

4499
02:39:16,674 --> 02:39:17,842
how to help you figure out a

4500
02:39:17,842 --> 02:39:22,420
way to pay for him. We have

4501
02:39:22,980 --> 02:39:25,183
that on our team. Letting the

4502
02:39:25,183 --> 02:39:25,917
public know what's going on in

4503
02:39:25,917 --> 02:39:26,484
and affected meaningful way is

4504
02:39:26,484 --> 02:39:27,185
really important. And

4505
02:39:27,185 --> 02:39:28,486
obviously one of the tools we

4506
02:39:28,486 --> 02:39:32,860
use today is our websites and

4507
02:39:32,890 --> 02:39:33,691
we've got a really top notch

4508
02:39:33,691 --> 02:39:34,391
website designer team on our

4509
02:39:34,391 --> 02:39:37,991
team to help the county with

4510
02:39:39,263 --> 02:39:39,931
that. Maybe one of the most

4511
02:39:39,931 --> 02:39:40,632
important things are going

4512
02:39:40,632 --> 02:39:44,232
hear about today is our track

4513
02:39:46,204 --> 02:39:47,138
record. We have proven success

4514
02:39:47,138 --> 02:39:49,307
with nearly 200 similar types

4515
02:39:49,307 --> 02:39:51,509
of contracts as this one would

4516
02:39:51,509 --> 02:39:52,177
be throughout Florida with

4517
02:39:52,177 --> 02:39:54,577
counties with cities, state

4518
02:39:54,612 --> 02:39:55,213
agencies and so on. We know

4519
02:39:55,213 --> 02:39:56,914
how to do these general

4520
02:39:56,914 --> 02:39:58,914
services contracts and

4521
02:39:59,250 --> 02:40:01,520
successfully meet our clients.

4522
02:40:01,520 --> 02:40:01,653
Expectations and we're ready

4523
02:40:01,653 --> 02:40:02,787
to start. We can start

4524
02:40:02,787 --> 02:40:06,387
tomorrow. Ready to go and help

4525
02:40:07,259 --> 02:40:08,126
you Beecher objectives. So let

4526
02:40:08,126 --> 02:40:11,696
me just introduce a few of our

4527
02:40:11,696 --> 02:40:12,464
team members here. I am

4528
02:40:12,464 --> 02:40:13,980
Michael the senior vice

4529
02:40:13,980 --> 02:40:15,980
PRESIDENT Chief strategy

4530
02:40:15,367 --> 02:40:17,135
officer, a wgi but prep

4531
02:40:17,135 --> 02:40:19,270
perhaps what's more relevant

4532
02:40:19,270 --> 02:40:19,938
as I was the former deputy

4533
02:40:19,938 --> 02:40:22,338
assistant secretary of the

4534
02:40:23,774 --> 02:40:24,475
Army for the Court Engineers

4535
02:40:24,475 --> 02:40:25,710
over the quarter leading the

4536
02:40:25,710 --> 02:40:26,744
policy and legislation for the

4537
02:40:26,744 --> 02:40:27,446
core. I started in that agency

4538
02:40:27,446 --> 02:40:29,130
right out of graduate school.

4539
02:40:29,130 --> 02:40:31,282
I worked for him for 23 years.

4540
02:40:31,282 --> 02:40:32,284
Most of that in Washington,

4541
02:40:32,284 --> 02:40:35,987
D.C., I know the agency. I

4542
02:40:35,987 --> 02:40:37,220
know how they operate. I know

4543
02:40:37,220 --> 02:40:38,857
the frustrations that they

4544
02:40:38,857 --> 02:40:39,524
impose sometimes on local

4545
02:40:39,524 --> 02:40:40,224
communities in counties and

4546
02:40:40,224 --> 02:40:43,824
can help work around some of

4547
02:40:44,129 --> 02:40:45,396
that. As you know, we have

4548
02:40:45,396 --> 02:40:46,230
Todd Polk, retired lieutenant

4549
02:40:46,230 --> 02:40:47,310
colonel from the Jacksonville

4550
02:40:47,310 --> 02:40:47,732
District, the Army Corps of

4551
02:40:47,732 --> 02:40:50,132
Engineers touch been 25 years

4552
02:40:50,936 --> 02:40:52,970
in the Army. He served as the

4553
02:40:52,970 --> 02:40:54,706
deputy direct command or for

4554
02:40:54,706 --> 02:40:55,540
Jacksonville. What's really

4555
02:40:55,540 --> 02:40:56,174
important, I think is he

4556
02:40:56,174 --> 02:40:58,476
served the South Florida

4557
02:40:58,476 --> 02:41:00,312
region. This area. He spent

4558
02:41:00,312 --> 02:41:01,846
his time with Jacksonville in

4559
02:41:01,846 --> 02:41:02,647
this area working with the

4560
02:41:02,647 --> 02:41:05,470
agencies working on projects.

4561
02:41:05,551 --> 02:41:07,520
He knows what's going on here

4562
02:41:07,520 --> 02:41:07,753
and he has good relationships

4563
02:41:07,753 --> 02:41:10,153
with those agencies actually

4564
02:41:13,570 --> 02:41:14,225
like him. He's a good guy.

4565
02:41:14,225 --> 02:41:15,927
We're really happy that about

4566
02:41:15,927 --> 02:41:17,595
2 years ago, Melissa Mckinlay

4567
02:41:17,595 --> 02:41:18,630
joined Wgi after serving 8

4568
02:41:18,630 --> 02:41:21,320
years as a county commissioner

4569
02:41:21,320 --> 02:41:22,167
in Palm Beach County.

4570
02:41:22,167 --> 02:41:23,401
Melissa's had the pleasure of

4571
02:41:23,401 --> 02:41:25,270
sitting up that the Dyess air

4572
02:41:25,270 --> 02:41:27,105

coalition. So she is an

4574
02:41:27,739 --> 02:41:29,374
advocate for agriculture.

4575
02:41:29,374 --> 02:41:31,543
She's an advocate for the

4576
02:41:31,543 --> 02:41:34,745
Glades area of the Lake area.

4577
02:41:34,745 --> 02:41:36,949
And she'll be a great addition

4578
02:41:36,949 --> 02:41:37,616
to you in terms of government

4579
02:41:37,616 --> 02:41:39,451
relations and understanding

4580
02:41:39,451 --> 02:41:40,510
what's going on in Tallahassee

4581
02:41:40,510 --> 02:41:42,451
and Washington. On the

4582
02:41:44,522 --> 02:41:45,223
technical side, we have John

4586
02:41:48,927 --> 02:41:50,927

02:41:51,996 --> 02:41:52,697
of this bringing in our team

4588
02:41:52,697 --> 02:41:55,467
when we need to deal with the

4589
02:41:55,467 --> 02:41:57,302
planning and design of

4590
02:41:57,302 --> 02:41:58,303
environmental things. His

4591
02:41:58,303 --> 02:41:59,137

4592
02:41:59,137 --> 02:42:00,380

4602
02:42:17,623 --> 02:42:19,791

help the county against

4611
02:42:38,810 --> 02:42:39,878

02:42:55,927 --> 02:42:57,462
they're playing games and when

4621
02:42:57,462 --> 02:42:59,464
they're not. And so no, be a

4622
02:42:59,464 --> 02:43:00,765
great resource to our team as

4623
02:43:00,765 --> 02:43:01,466
well. So with that

4624
02:43:01,466 --> 02:43:03,269
introduction, I'm gonna turn

4625
02:43:03,269 --> 02:43:07,469
it over to Colonel Polk talk a

4626
02:43:08,306 --> 02:43:09,700
little bit about our team.

4627
02:43:09,700 --> 02:43:10,642
Thank you very much for that.

4628
02:43:10,642 --> 02:43:11,343
And up to my Clinton after

4629
02:43:11,343 --> 02:43:13,743
commissioners, I'm Todd Pope.

4630
02:43:14,980 --> 02:43:15,648
I am the

4631
02:43:15,648 --> 02:43:16,281
>> project manager for you

4632
02:43:16,281 --> 02:43:18,683
all. And I would be your

4633
02:43:18,683 --> 02:43:19,385
primary point contact for the

4634
02:43:19,385 --> 02:43:20,119
wgi team. And again, it's I'm

4635
02:43:20,119 --> 02:43:21,419
humbled and honored to be back

4636
02:43:21,419 --> 02:43:22,787
in these chambers and speak

4637
02:43:22,787 --> 02:43:25,787
before you all today. You

4638
02:43:25,991 --> 02:43:28,193
know, simply. As a as Michael

4639
02:43:28,193 --> 02:43:29,961
mentioned, only seems like.

4640
02:43:29,961 --> 02:43:31,930
But we are where you need us

4641
02:43:31,930 --> 02:43:32,597
to be. Now whether it's up in

4642
02:43:32,597 --> 02:43:34,597
Tallahassee, Jacksonville,

4643
02:43:35,934 --> 02:43:39,505
West Palm Beach or Wash dc

4644
02:43:39,505 --> 02:43:40,205
Wgi. We have the pulse. And we

4645
02:43:40,205 --> 02:43:42,574
can be there. We know what's

4646
02:43:42,574 --> 02:43:43,775
going on. You know, we're only

4647
02:43:43,775 --> 02:43:45,544
hour and 15 minutes from here

4648
02:43:45,544 --> 02:43:46,578
that we can be at the agency

4649
02:43:46,578 --> 02:43:47,279
headquarters inside West Palm

4650
02:43:47,279 --> 02:43:49,515
Beach and 15 minutes a given

4651
02:43:49,515 --> 02:43:50,316
time. But the most

4652
02:43:50,316 --> 02:43:52,451
importantly, though, really is

4653
02:43:52,451 --> 02:43:53,185
a long-standing relationships

4654
02:43:53,185 --> 02:43:54,686
that we have with the agencies

4655
02:43:54,686 --> 02:43:57,686
and how they operate. That's

4656
02:43:58,224 --> 02:43:58,991
going allow us to advocate.

4657
02:43:58,991 --> 02:43:59,658
For you. And and what should

4658
02:43:59,658 --> 02:44:01,658
county's water environment

4659
02:44:05,764 --> 02:44:08,600
needs are? No, we are a full

4660
02:44:08,600 --> 02:44:09,268
service from and greener ucf

4661
02:44:09,268 --> 02:44:09,968
highlighted specific areas

4662
02:44:09,968 --> 02:44:11,537
that were in the rfq that we

4663
02:44:11,537 --> 02:44:14,537
have in House. Over 50 years

4664
02:44:15,240 --> 02:44:15,907
ago. We were founded and

4665
02:44:15,907 --> 02:44:17,907
remain headquartered. West

4666
02:44:17,977 --> 02:44:19,277
Palm Beach starting with 3

4667
02:44:19,277 --> 02:44:22,277
people in over going over 600

4668
02:44:22,481 --> 02:44:24,316
today of the 60250 reside now

4669
02:44:24,316 --> 02:44:26,285
in central and southern

4670
02:44:26,285 --> 02:44:26,986
Florida. And, you know, we're

4671
02:44:26,986 --> 02:44:28,986
committed Okeechobee success

4672
02:44:29,521 --> 02:44:30,255
because we know just how

4673
02:44:30,255 --> 02:44:30,923
interconnected the water makes

4674
02:44:30,923 --> 02:44:35,270
us. All of us here in South

4675
02:44:35,270 --> 02:44:36,495
Florida. You're Michael talk

4676
02:44:36,495 --> 02:44:37,363
about the grant rant. Funny,

4677
02:44:37,363 --> 02:44:39,265
right at our team is that by

4678
02:44:39,265 --> 02:44:40,366
Michael Lynton, as you've

4679
02:44:40,366 --> 02:44:43,200
heard, he's a proven record

4680
02:44:43,200 --> 02:44:44,537
and 40 years of success,

4681
02:44:44,537 --> 02:44:45,304
nearly 900 million dollars in

4682
02:44:45,304 --> 02:44:46,372
the last 5 years alone. And

4683
02:44:46,372 --> 02:44:49,372
are the oldest grant reading

4684
02:44:50,544 --> 02:44:51,310
from and Florida? He's, you

4685
02:44:51,310 --> 02:44:52,945
know, knows better than

4686
02:44:52,945 --> 02:44:53,645
anyone. I to help us navigate

4687
02:44:53,645 --> 02:44:54,446
through these rough and murky

4688
02:44:54,446 --> 02:44:56,916
waters on the federal grant

4689
02:44:56,916 --> 02:45:00,516
Grant Arena at this time. You

4690
02:45:01,153 --> 02:45:02,621
know. Okeechobee County, you

4691
02:45:02,621 --> 02:45:03,556
need an advocate, someone

4692
02:45:03,556 --> 02:45:04,256
actively seeking and going

4693
02:45:04,256 --> 02:45:06,192
after those one opportunities

4694
02:45:06,192 --> 02:45:06,859
at all levels. You know,

4695
02:45:06,859 --> 02:45:08,527
someone is ready to assist

4696
02:45:08,527 --> 02:45:10,620
your staff and enhance or

4697
02:45:10,620 --> 02:45:11,831
staff. Now what we know a

4698
02:45:11,831 --> 02:45:14,231
fiscally sound county like

4699
02:45:14,834 --> 02:45:16,340
Okeechobee, these every

4700
02:45:16,340 --> 02:45:16,769
available dollar and who help

4701
02:45:16,769 --> 02:45:19,972
you get And as you can see

4702
02:45:19,972 --> 02:45:20,906
that to list the top on the

4703
02:45:20,906 --> 02:45:22,774
right. And you know, those are

4704
02:45:22,774 --> 02:45:24,743
those are state and federal

4705
02:45:24,743 --> 02:45:27,743
grants that are available at

4706
02:45:31,517 --> 02:45:32,584
this time show county. Now the

4707
02:45:32,584 --> 02:45:33,285
cornerstone of educating

4708
02:45:33,285 --> 02:45:33,986
improving your constituents,

4709
02:45:33,986 --> 02:45:35,321
understanding on the county's

4710
02:45:35,321 --> 02:45:36,880
position for water,

4711
02:45:36,880 --> 02:45:37,790
environmental quality issues

4712
02:45:37,790 --> 02:45:40,190
really a user friendly

4713
02:45:41,994 --> 02:45:42,628
intuitive Web site. The

4714
02:45:42,628 --> 02:45:43,429
website will integrate

4715
02:45:43,429 --> 02:45:45,429
multimedia assets, incorporate

4716
02:45:45,464 --> 02:45:46,132
search engine optimization.

4717
02:45:46,132 --> 02:45:49,132
That's what this, you know,

4718
02:45:49,602 --> 02:45:51,670
stands for up there, which

4719
02:45:51,670 --> 02:45:52,538
basically helps the search

4720
02:45:52,538 --> 02:45:53,272
engine understand your content

4721
02:45:53,272 --> 02:45:55,841
and help you help them come to

4722
02:45:55,841 --> 02:45:56,809
that faster. Basically. And

4723
02:45:56,809 --> 02:45:57,609
when you type in Google, you

4724
02:45:57,609 --> 02:45:58,310
start right in Okeechobee

4725
02:45:58,310 --> 02:46:01,310
County just before you finish

4726
02:46:01,814 --> 02:46:02,481
up much of the county, your

4727
02:46:02,481 --> 02:46:03,181
Web sites pop up to the top

4728
02:46:03,181 --> 02:46:04,116
and that's what they're going

4729
02:46:04,116 --> 02:46:04,817
to make sure we have happened.

4730
02:46:04,817 --> 02:46:08,417
That's what our team that we

4731
02:46:08,521 --> 02:46:09,822
brought on. Konrad pr.

4732
02:46:09,822 --> 02:46:11,290
Definitely one of the best in

4733
02:46:11,290 --> 02:46:11,991
the business will be working

4734
02:46:11,991 --> 02:46:14,426
with your staff to make sure

4735
02:46:14,426 --> 02:46:15,127
meeting website needs just

4736
02:46:15,127 --> 02:46:16,496
like they did Lee County and

4737
02:46:16,496 --> 02:46:18,631
that Web plan that they

4738
02:46:18,631 --> 02:46:20,399
developed, you know, and it's

4739
02:46:20,399 --> 02:46:21,600
a it's a great credit to your

4740
02:46:21,600 --> 02:46:22,267
staff there and who brought

4741
02:46:22,267 --> 02:46:22,936
with that recommendation of

4742
02:46:22,936 --> 02:46:24,470
for such a great website to

4743
02:46:24,470 --> 02:46:25,171
take a look at the model. So.

4744
02:46:25,171 --> 02:46:28,771
With that, though, I will now

4745
02:46:32,478 --> 02:46:33,145
introduce. John at user. I'm

4746

environmental department at

4748
02:46:36,815 --> 02:46:37,983
Wgi. Compared to most of our

4749
02:46:37,983 --> 02:46:40,252
competitors. We offer a much

4750
02:46:40,252 --> 02:46:41,988
deeper bench of technical

4751
02:46:41,988 --> 02:46:42,821
experts.

4752
02:46:42,821 --> 02:46:43,589
>> Whatever services you might

4753
02:46:43,589 --> 02:46:44,323
need of the next few years of

4754
02:46:44,323 --> 02:46:46,492
term of this contract. We have

4755
02:46:46,492 --> 02:46:50,920
the experts to do that. We

4756
02:46:50,463 --> 02:46:51,630
have about 600 engineers. What

planners, geospatial dollars

4761
02:47:01,607 --> 02:47:02,641
and a whole lot more. We have

4762

state-of-the-art technology

4763
02:47:03,776 --> 02:47:05,611
storm was is the gold standard

4764
02:47:05,611 --> 02:47:06,512
for water quality modeling?

4765
02:47:06,512 --> 02:47:09,249
Not only do we use we

4766
02:47:09,249 --> 02:47:09,949
developed it. Own it. Our

4767
02:47:09,949 --> 02:47:13,549

models. It provides real-time

4771
02:47:21,527 --> 02:47:22,195
flood forecasting. The latest

4772
02:47:22,195 --> 02:47:22,929
geospatial technology, for

4773
02:47:22,929 --> 02:47:24,831
instance, that camera there on

4774
02:47:24,831 --> 02:47:26,833
your at the bottom. We were

4775
02:47:26,833 --> 02:47:30,803
the first in the world to buy

4776
02:47:30,803 --> 02:47:31,537
that. It is a state-of-the-art

4777
02:47:31,537 --> 02:47:33,806
infrared Cape. Wolf camera. We

4778
02:47:33,806 --> 02:47:35,908
attach it to a piloted fixed

4779
02:47:35,908 --> 02:47:36,910
wing aircraft. We can fly it

4780
02:47:36,910 --> 02:47:38,177
over the county integrate. It

4781
02:47:38,177 --> 02:47:38,878
was artificial intelligence

4782
02:47:38,878 --> 02:47:41,878
and machine learning and map

4783
02:47:42,214 --> 02:47:44,817
the whole county. Is this good

4784
02:47:44,817 --> 02:47:45,485
for hog hunting and coats and

4785
02:47:45,485 --> 02:47:45,885
sure is an infrared victim

4786
02:47:45,885 --> 02:47:47,885
right out.

4787
02:47:49,155 --> 02:47:52,155
>> That year. We have relevant

4788
02:47:53,559 --> 02:47:55,327
and local experience. The top

restoration. 65 the spillway.

4791
02:47:58,464 --> 02:47:59,299
I worked on that for well over

4792
02:47:59,299 --> 02:48:02,899
a year. I'm no stranger to

4793
02:48:03,236 --> 02:48:03,869
Okeechobee County. The top

02:48:06,339 --> 02:48:07,207
quality project that we're

4796
02:48:07,207 --> 02:48:07,874
working on. That's the

4797
02:48:07,874 --> 02:48:09,874
stormwater treatment area.

4798

4801
02:48:15,281 --> 02:48:18,830
for many years that has water

4802
02:48:18,830 --> 02:48:20,830
quality improvement component.

Bottom left us. If it's cut

4804
02:48:22,321 --> 02:48:23,456
off wall, I worked on that for

4805
02:48:23,456 --> 02:48:27,327
many years. So the top Todd we

4806
02:48:27,327 --> 02:48:28,161
know the lake really well.

4807
02:48:28,161 --> 02:48:28,828
Bottom right is another county

4808
02:48:28,828 --> 02:48:30,129
water quality project that

4809
02:48:30,129 --> 02:48:33,129
that we're working on for

4810
02:48:34,801 --> 02:48:36,669
Collier County. One includes a

4811
02:48:36,669 --> 02:48:39,690
regional watershed level. All

4812
02:48:42,242 --> 02:48:43,276
what a quality model. We know

4813
02:48:43,276 --> 02:48:45,440
state agencies really well and

4814
02:48:45,440 --> 02:48:45,744
have great relationships, for

4815
02:48:45,744 --> 02:48:46,979
instance, for instance, with

4816
02:48:46,979 --> 02:48:48,815
dot. We have a district-wide

4817
02:48:48,815 --> 02:48:50,983
contract. We've had it for 5

4818
02:48:50,983 --> 02:48:52,180
years. We just recently re

4819
02:48:52,180 --> 02:48:52,752
competed for it was ranked

4820
02:48:52,752 --> 02:48:56,952
number one. They give it to us

4821
02:48:56,956 --> 02:48:59,956
for another 5 years. The top

4822
02:48:59,992 --> 02:49:00,660
middle we serve full as the

4823
02:49:00,660 --> 02:49:01,361
owner's representative for

4824
02:49:01,361 --> 02:49:04,361
Clay County for their bonded

4825
02:49:04,698 --> 02:49:05,465
infrastructure program. Bottom

4826
02:49:05,465 --> 02:49:06,132
left is another county

4827
02:49:06,132 --> 02:49:08,532
project. The water Quality

4828
02:49:09,802 --> 02:49:12,205
project. That was from Martin

4829
02:49:12,205 --> 02:49:12,839
County. That's a water quality

4830
02:49:12,839 --> 02:49:14,839
modeling and improvement

4831
02:49:17,277 --> 02:49:18,111
project agricultural area.

4832
02:49:18,111 --> 02:49:19,979
Adam Wright is the c 44

4833
02:49:19,979 --> 02:49:21,481
reservoir and stormwater

4834
02:49:21,481 --> 02:49:22,810
treatment area. We provided

4835
02:49:22,810 --> 02:49:24,481
the opinion of probable

4836
02:49:25,285 --> 02:49:25,985
construction cost. And the top

4837
02:49:25,985 --> 02:49:28,221
right doesn't look relevant,

4838
02:49:28,221 --> 02:49:32,421
but it is. This is a county

4839
02:49:34,227 --> 02:49:34,961
project. An outside agency,

4840
02:49:34,961 --> 02:49:37,961
the Department of Defense, the

4841
02:49:38,965 --> 02:49:39,599
Navy. Was proposing to bring

4842
02:49:39,599 --> 02:49:42,599
in the f 35 joint strike

4843
02:49:42,802 --> 02:49:43,503
fighter to Monroe County and

4844
02:49:43,503 --> 02:49:45,903
other military operations in

4845
02:49:46,806 --> 02:49:49,242
and around the county and

4846
02:49:49,242 --> 02:49:49,943
state. The Navy dropped this

4847
02:49:49,943 --> 02:49:51,943
enormous environmental impact

4848
02:49:53,112 --> 02:49:53,913
statement on the county. It

4849
02:49:53,913 --> 02:49:56,316
was thousands of pages long

4850
02:49:56,316 --> 02:49:56,983
and it was very complicated

4851
02:49:56,983 --> 02:49:58,651
and the county didn't know

4852
02:49:58,651 --> 02:50:00,987
what to make of it. So they

4853
02:50:00,987 --> 02:50:01,688
hired Michael and I to figure

4854
02:50:01,688 --> 02:50:05,888
out what does it mean for the

4855
02:50:06,626 --> 02:50:07,694
county? So we made sense of

4856
02:50:07,694 --> 02:50:08,361
the We made a trip to

4857
02:50:08,361 --> 02:50:11,198
Washington on behalf of the

4858
02:50:11,198 --> 02:50:12,966
county. And came back reported

4859
02:50:12,966 --> 02:50:14,330
to the board of County

4860
02:50:14,330 --> 02:50:14,734
commissioners on this is what

4861
02:50:14,734 --> 02:50:17,204
the Navy is planning on doing

4862
02:50:17,204 --> 02:50:17,904
in your county. This what what

4863
02:50:17,904 --> 02:50:20,607
is the impacts ending on your

4864
02:50:20,607 --> 02:50:21,274
quality of life? So this is

4865
02:50:21,274 --> 02:50:24,874
the type of services we can

4866
02:50:26,346 --> 02:50:27,113
provide to We have a proven

4867
02:50:27,113 --> 02:50:30,113
track record with these types

4868
02:50:31,840 --> 02:50:32,986
of contracts. We have about

4869
02:50:32,986 --> 02:50:34,788
180 similar contracts. We one

4870
02:50:34,788 --> 02:50:35,455
the dot for Environmental

4871
02:50:35,455 --> 02:50:36,550
Services. Another one from

4872
02:50:36,550 --> 02:50:37,590
Martin County, war for

4873
02:50:37,590 --> 02:50:40,590
Port St. County, Clay County.

4874
02:50:41,595 --> 02:50:42,229
We do this all the time. We

4875
02:50:42,229 --> 02:50:45,198
know how to be helpful on

4876
02:50:45,198 --> 02:50:45,798
contracts like this. And we

4877
02:50:45,798 --> 02:50:48,798
know how to service an

4878
02:50:50,670 --> 02:50:53,670
extension of her stuff. Thank

4879
02:50:54,374 --> 02:50:57,177
you, John. And we're ready to

4880
02:50:57,177 --> 02:50:58,412
go a couple of things that are

4881
02:50:58,412 --> 02:51:01,412
really important when we take

4882
02:51:02,416 --> 02:51:04,685
on projects like this and, you

4883
02:51:04,685 --> 02:51:06,786
know, once the contract is

4884
02:51:06,786 --> 02:51:07,487
awarded, we're going to work

4885
02:51:07,487 --> 02:51:09,656
on a project specific

4886
02:51:09,656 --> 02:51:11,580
contract, specific quality

4887
02:51:11,580 --> 02:51:12,726
control plan. If you don't do

4888
02:51:12,726 --> 02:51:14,527
qc at Wgi, you don't get to

4889
02:51:14,527 --> 02:51:15,195
work there. That's that's our

4890
02:51:15,195 --> 02:51:15,829
motto. You have to do that.

4891
02:51:15,829 --> 02:51:18,198
You see and make sure the

4892
02:51:18,198 --> 02:51:19,432
things that we give you have

4893
02:51:19,432 --> 02:51:22,432
been checked and rechecked and

4894
02:51:22,469 --> 02:51:22,903
there are accurate and

4895
02:51:22,903 --> 02:51:24,438
appropriate.

4896
02:51:24,438 --> 02:51:25,706
>> We'll set up a kickoff with

4897
02:51:25,706 --> 02:51:27,640
you. And the reason that's

4898
02:51:27,640 --> 02:51:29,242
really important, one of the

4899
02:51:29,242 --> 02:51:31,245
things that we've noticed in

4900
02:51:31,245 --> 02:51:32,912
the last 50 years of being a

4901
02:51:32,912 --> 02:51:34,848
consultant is when things go

4902
02:51:34,848 --> 02:51:36,983
good. It's usually because a

4903
02:51:36,983 --> 02:51:37,784
good communication when things

4904
02:51:37,784 --> 02:51:40,487
go bad it because a lack of

4905
02:51:40,487 --> 02:51:42,489
good communication. So we take

4906
02:51:42,489 --> 02:51:44,558
pride in being good

4907
02:51:44,558 --> 02:51:45,692
communicators, reaching out

4908
02:51:45,692 --> 02:51:46,659
early on being proactive and

4909
02:51:46,659 --> 02:51:49,163
talking to our clients about

4910
02:51:49,163 --> 02:51:49,830
what their expectations are.

4911
02:51:49,830 --> 02:51:52,699
But expect both in terms of

4912
02:51:52,699 --> 02:51:55,268
budget and schedule, but also

4913
02:51:55,268 --> 02:51:56,303
the substance of the of the

4914
02:51:56,303 --> 02:51:58,703
the project. So communication

4915
02:51:59,906 --> 02:52:00,640
is really important. We will

4916
02:52:00,640 --> 02:52:03,400
develop a specific project

4917
02:52:03,710 --> 02:52:04,744
management plan because this

4918
02:52:04,744 --> 02:52:05,579
is, you know, is a lot of

4919
02:52:05,579 --> 02:52:06,280
moving parts and a contract

4920
02:52:06,280 --> 02:52:06,980
like this. You need a lot of

4921
02:52:06,980 --> 02:52:09,182
different disciplines. A lot

4922
02:52:09,182 --> 02:52:11,251
of different people involved

4923
02:52:11,251 --> 02:52:12,586
because it MAY be engineering

4924
02:52:12,586 --> 02:52:13,286
MAY be planning, maybe

4925
02:52:13,286 --> 02:52:13,921
environmental it maybe cover

4926
02:52:13,921 --> 02:52:15,723
relations with a host of

4927
02:52:15,723 --> 02:52:18,426
things going on. And so we

4928
02:52:18,426 --> 02:52:19,827
want to make sure we're

4929
02:52:19,827 --> 02:52:22,429
organized. And Todd has the

4930
02:52:22,429 --> 02:52:23,430
right resources as your

4931
02:52:23,430 --> 02:52:24,531
project manager to be

4932
02:52:24,531 --> 02:52:27,100
effective. And so we have

4933
02:52:27,100 --> 02:52:30,100
project specific plan here for

4934
02:52:32,773 --> 02:52:34,740
this contract. We're ready to

4935
02:52:34,740 --> 02:52:34,742
You know it when it is. John

4936
02:52:34,742 --> 02:52:35,476
mentioned, we have a lot of

4937
02:52:35,476 --> 02:52:38,212
experience. And so we know how

4938
02:52:38,212 --> 02:52:39,790
to do this and I'm going to

4939
02:52:39,790 --> 02:52:39,779
close the way I started again,

4940
02:52:39,779 --> 02:52:41,815
be a little redundant because

4941
02:52:41,815 --> 02:52:44,684
I think it's really important.

4942
02:52:44,684 --> 02:52:48,284
We hand pick. This team and

4943
02:52:49,990 --> 02:52:53,127
the others. To to support you.

4944
02:52:53,127 --> 02:52:53,861
This is the a team. We

4945
02:52:53,861 --> 02:52:54,595
understand how important this

4946
02:52:54,595 --> 02:52:57,298
is to you and how important is

4947
02:52:57,298 --> 02:52:57,965
to the county. So we're going

4948
02:52:57,965 --> 02:53:01,565
to get it right. And that's

4949
02:53:02,103 --> 02:53:03,770
what we do out. We're close by

4950
02:53:03,770 --> 02:53:07,370
we have offices where you need

4951
02:53:07,641 --> 02:53:08,241
us. We have that extensive,

4952
02:53:08,241 --> 02:53:09,543
unprecedented grant and

4953
02:53:09,543 --> 02:53:10,510
funding support capabilities

4954
02:53:10,510 --> 02:53:12,146
along with our Web site design

4955
02:53:12,146 --> 02:53:12,846
capabilities that will help us

4956
02:53:12,846 --> 02:53:14,248
articulate what's going on in

4957
02:53:14,248 --> 02:53:17,184
the county to the eu, citizens

4958
02:53:17,184 --> 02:53:19,219
in your constituents. We have

4959
02:53:19,219 --> 02:53:21,222
that bench that John talked

4960
02:53:21,222 --> 02:53:21,922
about where if you have

4961
02:53:21,922 --> 02:53:23,223
adopting engineering problem,

4962
02:53:23,223 --> 02:53:25,358
Brett's going to bring in a

4963
02:53:25,358 --> 02:53:26,960
team of engineers to help

4964
02:53:26,960 --> 02:53:29,797
solve that problem and provide

4965
02:53:29,797 --> 02:53:30,531
solutions. Same thing on

4966
02:53:30,531 --> 02:53:32,931
environmental our planning. We

4967
02:53:33,434 --> 02:53:35,302
have those those experts. We

4968
02:53:35,302 --> 02:53:36,804
have the local knowledge. We

4969
02:53:36,804 --> 02:53:37,471
worked in this area. Todd John

4970
02:53:37,471 --> 02:53:38,172
talked about projects that

4971
02:53:38,172 --> 02:53:40,841
that we've worked on right in

4972
02:53:40,841 --> 02:53:41,508
this county here. And so we

4973
02:53:41,508 --> 02:53:45,108
know the area we know South

4974
02:53:45,912 --> 02:53:47,181
Florida. We have a lot of

4975
02:53:47,181 --> 02:53:49,581
repeat clients. 72 1% of our

4976
02:53:52,253 --> 02:53:53,120
clients at Wgi. Are repeat

4977
02:53:53,120 --> 02:53:54,955
clients. 75% of our clients

4978
02:53:54,955 --> 02:53:56,257
are public clients. So that's

4979
02:53:56,257 --> 02:53:56,924
important. We do a little

4980
02:53:56,924 --> 02:53:57,658
private land development in

4981
02:53:57,658 --> 02:54:00,580
places, particularly in Texas.

4982
02:54:01,529 --> 02:54:03,929
But 75% requests for public

4983
02:54:04,431 --> 02:54:07,340
line says are repeat clients.

4984
02:54:07,340 --> 02:54:10,340
We have that proven success.

4985
02:54:10,104 --> 02:54:12,139
We're ready to go on your

4986
02:54:12,139 --> 02:54:12,773
behalf help meet your

4987
02:54:12,773 --> 02:54:14,542
objectives for strategic

4988
02:54:14,542 --> 02:54:15,442
objectives. Okeechobee County.

4989
02:54:15,442 --> 02:54:19,447
So that will stop look for any

4990
02:54:19,447 --> 02:54:20,114
questions you have. Thank you.

4991
02:54:20,114 --> 02:54:22,716
Would think that you would

4992
02:54:22,716 --> 02:54:24,685
have a fee structure. I'm not

4993
02:54:24,685 --> 02:54:25,753
asking for dollar amounts, but

4994
02:54:25,753 --> 02:54:26,353
you must have a structure if

4995
02:54:26,353 --> 02:54:27,540
we need engineering or

4996
02:54:27,540 --> 02:54:29,454
something like that, that

4997
02:54:29,991 --> 02:54:32,991
>> that would be. Included in

4998
02:54:34,280 --> 02:54:34,928
the proposal. That would be

4999
02:54:34,928 --> 02:54:35,596
included as part of the

5000
02:54:35,596 --> 02:54:36,331
contract negotiations have

5001
02:54:36,331 --> 02:54:37,650
such a great question. And one

5002
02:54:37,650 --> 02:54:37,898
of the things that we bring is

5003
02:54:37,898 --> 02:54:40,298
because we have the

5004
02:54:42,836 --> 02:54:44,705
>> the bench that we have.

5005
02:54:44,705 --> 02:54:46,774
That's going to be more

5006
02:54:46,774 --> 02:54:47,441
expensive. Then then a

5007
02:54:47,441 --> 02:54:48,108
mid-level engineer. If that

5008
02:54:48,108 --> 02:54:49,109
particular project requires

5009
02:54:49,109 --> 02:54:50,845
for the mid-level engineer,

5010
02:54:50,845 --> 02:54:51,512
that's what we would do with

5011
02:54:51,512 --> 02:54:52,179
Brett Oversight. We're not

5012
02:54:52,179 --> 02:54:52,913
going to charge you for the

5013
02:54:52,913 --> 02:54:53,247
highest paid person. We have a

5014
02:54:53,247 --> 02:54:55,247
lot of.

5015
02:54:56,984 --> 02:54:57,652
>> a lot up professionals to

5016
02:54:57,652 --> 02:55:00,255
choose from. And we try to

5017
02:55:00,255 --> 02:55:01,155
choose the very best ones.

5018
02:55:01,155 --> 02:55:01,855
>> Given the nature of the

5019
02:55:01,855 --> 02:55:03,390
particular task. But yes, we

5020
02:55:03,390 --> 02:55:06,990
have a fee schedule. So I

5021
02:55:07,261 --> 02:55:08,329
would think base rate would be

5022
02:55:08,329 --> 02:55:10,431
for somebody monitoring all

5023
02:55:10,431 --> 02:55:11,165
the all the meetings given

5024
02:55:11,165 --> 02:55:11,833
U.S. Report periodically or

5025
02:55:11,833 --> 02:55:14,233
something like that. That's

5026
02:55:14,902 --> 02:55:16,700
what would be bill looking on.

5027
02:55:16,700 --> 02:55:17,839
>> The schedule probably for

5028
02:55:17,839 --> 02:55:19,240
that. It might be like a lump

5029
02:55:19,240 --> 02:55:19,940
sum to go to 2 meetings a

5030
02:55:19,940 --> 02:55:21,675
month or 5 meetings a month.

5031
02:55:21,675 --> 02:55:22,342
Whatever you need us to do.

5032
02:55:22,342 --> 02:55:25,846
>> And that would just be a

5033
02:55:25,846 --> 02:55:26,647
lump sum. We would. Attend

5034
02:55:26,647 --> 02:55:27,381
those meetings. Take notes,

5035
02:55:27,381 --> 02:55:28,820
report back what we're hearing

5036
02:55:28,820 --> 02:55:30,617
and what we think it means to

5037
02:55:30,617 --> 02:55:31,318
the county.

5038
02:55:31,318 --> 02:55:31,986
>> You really got my interest

5039
02:55:31,986 --> 02:55:34,986
that when you talked about

5040
02:55:36,891 --> 02:55:38,580
grants. I know we've had.

5041
02:55:38,580 --> 02:55:38,792
We've got some good people

5042
02:55:38,792 --> 02:55:41,896
working on grants here, but we

5043
02:55:41,896 --> 02:55:42,963
also in the past, we've had

5044
02:55:42,963 --> 02:55:45,633
the same cup. A lobbyist works

5045
02:55:45,633 --> 02:55:47,201
for working on grants and that

5046
02:55:47,201 --> 02:55:48,969
time they working up for

5047
02:55:48,969 --> 02:55:49,636
percentage. How how would you

5048
02:55:49,636 --> 02:55:51,636
envision being compensated

5049
02:55:53,807 --> 02:55:54,875
prevent work? You know,

5050
02:55:54,875 --> 02:55:55,543
Michael Lang former state rep

5051
02:55:55,543 --> 02:55:58,543
will lead to grant writing

5052
02:55:58,646 --> 02:56:00,848
thing and and hit.

5053
02:56:00,848 --> 02:56:01,516
>> We'll structure composition

5054
02:56:01,516 --> 02:56:02,216
compensation the way that

5055
02:56:02,216 --> 02:56:03,851
makes sense for you. Not most

5056
02:56:03,851 --> 02:56:04,719
grant writers do exactly what

5057
02:56:04,719 --> 02:56:06,587
you're talking about. They get

5058
02:56:06,587 --> 02:56:08,220
they'll take a piece off at if

5059
02:56:08,220 --> 02:56:08,690
they're successful and there's

5060
02:56:08,690 --> 02:56:10,910
other models. You could you

5061
02:56:10,910 --> 02:56:11,792
could you could. We could work

5062
02:56:11,792 --> 02:56:12,393
out. Mike, the good thing

5063
02:56:12,393 --> 02:56:13,994
about Michael is in his

5064
02:56:13,994 --> 02:56:15,363
teammate, Landon, is that

5065
02:56:15,363 --> 02:56:17,763
there. Started working with

5066
02:56:18,933 --> 02:56:19,834
him 30 years ago and they're

5067
02:56:19,834 --> 02:56:21,669
very efficient. They they can

5068
02:56:21,669 --> 02:56:23,771
get there pretty quick.

5069
02:56:23,771 --> 02:56:24,739
Others. Let's spend a lot more

5070
02:56:24,739 --> 02:56:26,608
time getting to the same

5071
02:56:26,608 --> 02:56:27,208
point. So I think that helps

5072
02:56:27,208 --> 02:56:27,909
with the rates and the

5073
02:56:27,909 --> 02:56:30,309
compensation that they would

5074
02:56:31,545 --> 02:56:32,246
have. Okay.

5075
02:56:32,246 --> 02:56:35,246
>> The sta that's proposed to

5076
02:56:37,618 --> 02:56:38,285
be located. Okeechobee been

5077
02:56:38,285 --> 02:56:40,685
very controversial and this

5078
02:56:41,156 --> 02:56:42,257
commission taking a stand it

5079
02:56:42,257 --> 02:56:44,258
is not in our best interest to

5080
02:56:44,258 --> 02:56:45,593
be located in that particular

5081
02:56:45,593 --> 02:56:47,950
place. Is there any conflict

5082
02:56:47,950 --> 02:56:49,495
from anybody in organization?

5083
02:56:52,367 --> 02:56:55,737
To keep you from? Helping our

5084
02:56:55,737 --> 02:56:56,671
caravan or desires. I don't

5085
02:56:56,671 --> 02:56:57,472
think we have any conflicts.

5086
02:56:57,472 --> 02:56:58,839
We do work for the South

5087
02:56:58,839 --> 02:56:59,540
Florida Water Management

5088
02:56:59,540 --> 02:57:00,307
District. Do work for the

5089
02:57:00,307 --> 02:57:02,707
Corps Engineers. You know,

5090
02:57:03,778 --> 02:57:04,445
that's not a secret.

5091
02:57:04,445 --> 02:57:05,179
>> But I you know, I don't

5092
02:57:05,179 --> 02:57:07,848
think it was a conflict there.

5093
02:57:07,848 --> 02:57:08,616
What we're going to do is give

5094
02:57:08,616 --> 02:57:09,417
you whatever the situation is,

5095
02:57:09,417 --> 02:57:11,185
whatever the project, as give

5096
02:57:11,185 --> 02:57:13,355
you the best technical advice

5097
02:57:13,355 --> 02:57:14,550
that we believe based what we

5098
02:57:14,550 --> 02:57:17,550
think's the best interest of

5099
02:57:19,661 --> 02:57:20,729
the county. We have 7 issues

5100
02:57:20,729 --> 02:57:21,463
that we think that they were

5101
02:57:21,463 --> 02:57:25,630
not being able to comply with.

5102
02:57:25,233 --> 02:57:26,100
And so.

5103
02:57:26,100 --> 02:57:26,834
>> That's what we would be

5104
02:57:26,834 --> 02:57:29,234
looking some assistance. Some

5105
02:57:35,710 --> 02:57:37,178
knows. MR. CHAIRMAN. Yes, MR.

5106
02:57:37,178 --> 02:57:40,778
Davis just a couple of things.

5107
02:57:40,949 --> 02:57:41,650
It's been like 5, years ago

5108
02:57:41,650 --> 02:57:42,317
when we started talking about

5109
02:57:42,317 --> 02:57:44,317
this 7, a

5110
02:57:44,819 --> 02:57:47,819
>> water policies are. Of some

5111
02:57:48,824 --> 02:57:49,457
sort and there were a lot of

5112
02:57:49,457 --> 02:57:52,457
meetings going on and we

5113
02:57:52,460 --> 02:57:54,295
didn't have. The seat at the

5114
02:57:54,295 --> 02:57:56,998
table. And if we did. And

5115
02:57:56,998 --> 02:57:57,565
probably the way over, you

5116
02:57:57,565 --> 02:57:59,167
know, way out of our

5117
02:57:59,167 --> 02:58:01,770
wheelhouse to even know what

5118
02:58:01,770 --> 02:58:02,336
to fight for. We didn't have

5119
02:58:02,336 --> 02:58:04,336
anybody fighting for

5120
02:58:05,390 --> 02:58:07,439
Okeechobee. And then you

5121
02:58:08,810 --> 02:58:11,210
Martin County. Congressman was

5122
02:58:14,715 --> 02:58:17,510
a day. Way bigger megaphone

5123
02:58:17,510 --> 02:58:18,553
than we You know, we're

5124
02:58:18,553 --> 02:58:20,188
nobody's listening. A little

5125
02:58:20,188 --> 02:58:21,256
Okeechobee, him. You know, the

5126
02:58:21,256 --> 02:58:24,326
fact that a lot of things that

5127
02:58:24,326 --> 02:58:25,526
they want was just totally

5128
02:58:25,526 --> 02:58:27,926
decimate. You know, our

5129
02:58:29,330 --> 02:58:32,930
economy and are way of life.

5130
02:58:35,971 --> 02:58:36,737
So. Thought that we needed

5131
02:58:36,737 --> 02:58:38,773
somebody to to represent us

5132
02:58:38,773 --> 02:58:42,277
and to go these meetings. Hear

5133
02:58:42,277 --> 02:58:43,378
what they had to say. And then

5134
02:58:43,378 --> 02:58:44,790
come back and tell us in

5135
02:58:44,790 --> 02:58:46,715
layman's terms, this is what

5136
02:58:46,715 --> 02:58:47,449
they're wanting to to to you.

5137
02:58:47,449 --> 02:58:51,190
This is what I think we should

5138
02:58:51,190 --> 02:58:51,753
do to combat it. And we're

5139
02:58:51,753 --> 02:58:54,322
going to fight for Okeechobee.

5140
02:58:54,322 --> 02:58:55,560
And that's what and that's our

5141
02:58:55,560 --> 02:58:57,893
job up here where we represent

5142
02:58:57,893 --> 02:58:58,593
the citizens of Okeechobee

5143
02:58:58,593 --> 02:58:59,895
County. They look to us to do

5144
02:58:59,895 --> 02:59:02,498
make the best decisions and to

5145
02:59:02,498 --> 02:59:06,698
put up the best fights we can.

5146
02:59:09,437 --> 02:59:10,272
4 are 40,000 residents. Calm

5147
02:59:10,272 --> 02:59:10,939
little duck in a big puddle

5148
02:59:10,939 --> 02:59:11,706
when it comes all the other

5149
02:59:11,706 --> 02:59:14,706
counties that we're having to

5150
02:59:14,876 --> 02:59:16,845
to do battle with. On the

5151
02:59:16,845 --> 02:59:18,914
grants. And this is a maybe a

5152
02:59:18,914 --> 02:59:19,814
circular question. But are

5153
02:59:19,814 --> 02:59:21,950
there grants that will help us

5154
02:59:21,950 --> 02:59:24,950
pay for you? That's another

5155
02:59:25,254 --> 02:59:27,456
thing I'd like to. Do wonder

5156
02:59:27,456 --> 02:59:28,323
if it is there something that

5157
02:59:28,323 --> 02:59:31,590
that will help small rural

5158
02:59:31,590 --> 02:59:32,994
counties. You know, to hire

5159
02:59:32,994 --> 02:59:36,594
people in there, you know, to

5160
02:59:40,168 --> 02:59:42,300
be in their corner. But mostly

5161
02:59:42,300 --> 02:59:44,839
that's what that's what I

5162
02:59:44,839 --> 02:59:45,573
envisioned when we started

5163
02:59:45,573 --> 02:59:47,375
talking about Indian this

5164
02:59:47,375 --> 02:59:49,178
around, what we need is

5165
02:59:49,178 --> 02:59:49,811
somebody that can go to these

5166
02:59:49,811 --> 02:59:52,211
meetings, know what these

5167
02:59:53,349 --> 02:59:54,490
people are saying. Know what

5168
02:59:54,490 --> 02:59:55,450
you're talking about. Know if

5169
02:59:55,450 --> 02:59:58,253
it's bad for us know if it's

5170
02:59:58,253 --> 02:59:59,221
good for And then to also be

5171
02:59:59,221 --> 02:59:59,921
are your quarterback that we

5172
02:59:59,921 --> 03:00:02,390
put in when we need somebody

5173
03:00:02,390 --> 03:00:06,590
to fight for us? We agree. I

5174
03:00:06,962 --> 03:00:07,662
think there. It's probably I

5175
03:00:07,662 --> 03:00:08,997
don't I'm not aware of grants

5176
03:00:08,997 --> 03:00:10,332
that would pay for a general

5177
03:00:10,332 --> 03:00:11,133
contract like this one. But

5178
03:00:11,133 --> 03:00:12,735
what I am aware of this, that

5179
03:00:12,735 --> 03:00:13,802
there are grants that would

5180
03:00:13,802 --> 03:00:14,702
pay for

5181
03:00:14,702 --> 03:00:15,436
>> specific items that might

5182
03:00:15,436 --> 03:00:18,907
flow out of this. If there was

5183
03:00:18,907 --> 03:00:19,641
a project, for example, there

5184
03:00:19,641 --> 03:00:21,843
is opportunities it from times

5185
03:00:21,843 --> 03:00:23,780
depend on the granting agency

5186
03:00:23,780 --> 03:00:23,712
to get a grant for the

5187
03:00:23,712 --> 03:00:24,412
planning and some of the

5188
03:00:24,412 --> 03:00:26,615
design work for a particular

5189
03:00:26,615 --> 03:00:27,216
project. And so that's what I

5190
03:00:27,216 --> 03:00:30,216
think our team would be

5191
03:00:30,552 --> 03:00:31,253
looking at is if we say, you

5192
03:00:31,253 --> 03:00:33,121
know, there's a project here

5193
03:00:33,121 --> 03:00:33,755
that we think you need to

5194
03:00:33,755 --> 03:00:35,223
consider as part of your

5195
03:00:35,223 --> 03:00:37,292
capital improvement program or

5196
03:00:37,292 --> 03:00:38,727
whatever. A way to pay for it.

5197
03:00:38,727 --> 03:00:39,461
And then that there MAY be an

5198
03:00:39,461 --> 03:00:42,298
opportunity to pay for some of

5199
03:00:42,298 --> 03:00:43,320
the g wgi services associate

5200
03:00:43,320 --> 03:00:47,232
is that. Go back to your first

5201
03:00:49,638 --> 03:00:50,405
question about. Understand

5202
03:00:50,405 --> 03:00:52,405
fully your constituents.

5203
03:00:55,644 --> 03:00:56,311
Okeechobee County. 18,500

5204
03:00:56,311 --> 03:00:57,120
square miles in secrets to

5205
03:00:57,120 --> 03:00:57,645
South Florida will become the

5206
03:00:57,645 --> 03:00:59,645
South Florida ecosystem.

5207
03:01:01,416 --> 03:01:03,919
You're at the heart. And we

5208
03:01:03,919 --> 03:01:06,688
think, you know, helping you

5209
03:01:06,688 --> 03:01:08,624
get things right. And making

5210
03:01:08,624 --> 03:01:10,425
sure they are right for the

5211
03:01:10,425 --> 03:01:12,294
county is right for the other

5212
03:01:12,294 --> 03:01:13,462
parts of this ecosystem as

5213
03:01:13,462 --> 03:01:14,950
well. So that's one of the

5214
03:01:14,950 --> 03:01:16,495
reasons this is actually

5215
03:01:17,660 --> 03:01:17,866
exciting for us because, you

5216
03:01:17,866 --> 03:01:18,500
know, I've been a professional

5217
03:01:18,500 --> 03:01:20,500
planner and environmental

5218
03:01:20,703 --> 03:01:23,103
scientists for. Don't laugh

5219
03:01:24,540 --> 03:01:27,540
almost 40 years now. And there

5220
03:01:28,544 --> 03:01:29,244
have been very few situations

5221
03:01:29,244 --> 03:01:31,947
where you can't find a way to

5222
03:01:31,947 --> 03:01:33,816
reconcile the tension between

5223
03:01:33,816 --> 03:01:36,850
opposing forces. Not always,

5224
03:01:36,850 --> 03:01:38,253
but in many cases, you can.

5225
03:01:38,253 --> 03:01:38,887
And I think it's really

5226
03:01:38,887 --> 03:01:40,887
important that Okeechobee

5227
03:01:41,223 --> 03:01:42,991
County be heard. You're in the

5228
03:01:42,991 --> 03:01:43,926
center of this year, obviously

5229
03:01:43,926 --> 03:01:47,526
right here at the liquid heart

5230
03:01:47,563 --> 03:01:49,297
of the ecosystem. And so you

5231
03:01:49,297 --> 03:01:49,998
think deserve an advocate. You

5232
03:01:49,998 --> 03:01:50,732
deserve someone representing

5233
03:01:50,732 --> 03:01:54,437
you and bring you back to good

5234
03:01:54,437 --> 03:01:55,437
information. As you said. And

5235
03:01:55,437 --> 03:01:56,605
helping you, you know, go

5236
03:01:56,605 --> 03:01:57,272
through the process of making

5237
03:01:57,272 --> 03:01:59,272
decisions, policy decisions

5238
03:02:02,177 --> 03:02:04,212
about that. No one else.

5239
03:02:04,212 --> 03:02:06,212
Commissioner Karla.

5240
03:02:07,949 --> 03:02:08,651
Commissioner Summer.

5241
03:02:08,651 --> 03:02:12,251
>> Red pretty well to that. I

5242
03:02:13,789 --> 03:02:14,456
was going to ask so

5243
03:02:14,456 --> 03:02:18,560
>> We can't let the car set

5244
03:02:18,661 --> 03:02:19,361
alight. I'm sorry. I didn't

5245
03:02:19,361 --> 03:02:20,620
hear that is a question said

5246
03:02:20,620 --> 03:02:23,620
weekend that the current low

5247
03:02:27,303 --> 03:02:27,970
Fat Lite.

5248
03:02:27,970 --> 03:02:28,604
>> Commissioner, registered

5249
03:02:28,604 --> 03:02:30,272
respond to your question

5250
03:02:30,272 --> 03:02:32,408
regarding the congressman. I

5251
03:02:32,408 --> 03:02:33,909
don't think there's anybody on

5252
03:02:33,909 --> 03:02:34,543
any team, our experience with

5253
03:02:34,543 --> 03:02:36,543
providing evidence-based

5254
03:02:37,946 --> 03:02:38,580
rebuttal to the congressman,

5255
03:02:38,580 --> 03:02:39,248
then me and being on your

5256
03:02:39,248 --> 03:02:42,248
team. I would certainly be

5257
03:02:42,652 --> 03:02:43,352
able to provide that voice. I

5258
03:02:43,352 --> 03:02:45,187
know you're issues. I spent 8

5259
03:02:45,187 --> 03:02:47,187
years representing an

5260
03:02:47,289 --> 03:02:49,689
agricultural area of Palm

5261
03:02:50,126 --> 03:02:50,860
Beach County and partnered a

5262
03:02:50,860 --> 03:02:51,560
lot with Okeechobee County and

5263
03:02:51,560 --> 03:02:53,960
those arguments pushing back

5264
03:02:53,996 --> 03:02:55,698
on some of the congressman's

5265
03:02:55,698 --> 03:02:57,567
rhetoric. So I look forward to

5266
03:02:57,567 --> 03:02:59,469
being a part of the team

5267
03:02:59,469 --> 03:03:00,169
representing you and providing

5268
03:03:00,169 --> 03:03:00,903
that voiced here and having a

5269
03:03:00,903 --> 03:03:03,305
seat at those tables where you

5270
03:03:03,305 --> 03:03:03,839
need to be represented. Thank

5271
03:03:03,839 --> 03:03:06,142
you and that that's

5272
03:03:06,142 --> 03:03:06,809
comforting. And I do.

5273
03:03:06,809 --> 03:03:09,110
>> Relish the thought of us

5274
03:03:09,110 --> 03:03:11,213
being in a combative.

5275
03:03:11,213 --> 03:03:11,947
Situation with United States

5276
03:03:11,947 --> 03:03:14,947
Congressman, it just seems to

5277
03:03:16,385 --> 03:03:17,553
be happening and the people

5278
03:03:17,553 --> 03:03:19,953
there have have different

5279
03:03:21,724 --> 03:03:23,393
wants needs and desires. The

5280
03:03:23,393 --> 03:03:26,993
people here, our needs for a

5281
03:03:27,163 --> 03:03:30,165
shower lake. But they feel is

5282
03:03:30,165 --> 03:03:32,702
their need for e deeper lake

5283
03:03:32,702 --> 03:03:35,604
which more like water storage,

5284
03:03:35,604 --> 03:03:38,274
which the way he's alive. It's

5285
03:03:38,274 --> 03:03:41,874
like a life. Be It's going

5286
03:03:42,780 --> 03:03:44,280
been flown Growing contract.

5287
03:03:44,280 --> 03:03:45,514
And I mean, that's that's the

5288
03:03:45,514 --> 03:03:48,617
way that's where the good Lord

5289
03:03:48,617 --> 03:03:52,588
made it We try leave it that

5290
03:03:52,588 --> 03:03:53,556
way best we can. And, you

5291
03:03:53,556 --> 03:03:54,357
know, with with our knees to

5292
03:03:54,357 --> 03:03:57,893
try to keep Gulf from the 1928

5293
03:03:57,893 --> 03:04:01,493
floods. That took a long life

5294
03:04:03,332 --> 03:04:04,233
properties. So I hate to be in

5295
03:04:04,233 --> 03:04:06,569
that position. I would love

5296
03:04:06,569 --> 03:04:07,236
for us all to be able to sit

5297
03:04:07,236 --> 03:04:08,370
down in the room and try to

5298
03:04:08,370 --> 03:04:10,406
work something out everybody

5299
03:04:10,406 --> 03:04:12,141
can live with. But, you know,

5300
03:04:12,141 --> 03:04:12,808
he's got a pretty big

5301
03:04:12,808 --> 03:04:14,210
megaphone. Comes for larger

5302
03:04:14,210 --> 03:04:17,247
county than we can. We are

5303
03:04:17,247 --> 03:04:19,647
more. Sure are agricultural

5304
03:04:22,318 --> 03:04:24,354
based. But a lot of stuff on

5305
03:04:24,354 --> 03:04:25,210
own. The way we look to

5306
03:04:25,210 --> 03:04:28,210
tourism for our county for

5307
03:04:28,490 --> 03:04:30,392
people that fish. And come

5308
03:04:30,392 --> 03:04:33,992
here for that reason. So. You

5309
03:04:34,640 --> 03:04:34,764
I don't mind given a little as

5310
03:04:34,764 --> 03:04:37,764
long as everybody else might

5311
03:04:37,767 --> 03:04:38,501
give it a little. So that's

5312
03:04:38,501 --> 03:04:41,637
just can go on. The big things

5313
03:04:41,637 --> 03:04:44,974
is we seem to be a. Combative

5314
03:04:44,974 --> 03:04:47,374
relationship with our. Urban

5315
03:04:48,845 --> 03:04:50,179
cousins on the coast. So

5316
03:04:50,179 --> 03:04:51,114
>> respect the congressman.

5317
03:04:51,114 --> 03:04:52,181
Respect his service, but there

5318
03:04:52,181 --> 03:04:53,182
are 2 sides to every story. So

5319
03:04:53,182 --> 03:04:53,916
making sure your side is

5320
03:04:53,916 --> 03:04:56,252
shared would be a priority for

5321
03:04:56,252 --> 03:04:57,120
us.

5322
03:04:57,120 --> 03:04:58,355
>> Thank you very much.

5323
03:04:58,355 --> 03:04:59,188
Commissioner Bonin. Just add a

5324
03:04:59,188 --> 03:04:59,856
little bit to Melissa's

5325
03:04:59,856 --> 03:05:02,856
coming. I spent 15 years in

5326
03:05:02,892 --> 03:05:03,560
Washington and so the point is

5327
03:05:03,560 --> 03:05:06,950
that we're not shy or timid

5328
03:05:06,950 --> 03:05:06,930
with members of Congress were

5329
03:05:06,930 --> 03:05:08,664
respectful. I probably testify

5330
03:05:08,664 --> 03:05:10,900
to well over 100 times before

5331
03:05:10,900 --> 03:05:11,601
the United States Congress and

5332
03:05:11,601 --> 03:05:12,268
they don't call you up there

5333
03:05:12,268 --> 03:05:14,570
to tell you're doing a good

5334
03:05:14,570 --> 03:05:15,638
job. By the way, you they

5335
03:05:15,638 --> 03:05:16,338
they're there to call you up

5336
03:05:16,338 --> 03:05:17,720
there generally to be you up.

5337
03:05:17,720 --> 03:05:17,707
So you got to have tough skin.

5338
03:05:17,707 --> 03:05:19,509
You've got to be able to

5339
03:05:19,509 --> 03:05:20,610
communicate with them and

5340
03:05:20,610 --> 03:05:21,544
stand your ground when you

5341
03:05:21,544 --> 03:05:22,912
need to stand your ground. So

5342
03:05:22,912 --> 03:05:23,613
I think our team with Melissa

5343
03:05:23,613 --> 03:05:25,582
and others going to be really

5344
03:05:25,582 --> 03:05:27,316
good at that on your behalf.

5345
03:05:27,316 --> 03:05:27,950
Well, if you are here this

5346
03:05:27,950 --> 03:05:28,618
morning, you can see that

5347
03:05:28,618 --> 03:05:30,887
we've developed tough scan.

5348
03:05:30,887 --> 03:05:34,257
Yes. So the you had a

5349
03:05:34,257 --> 03:05:36,192
question. Was also has

5350
03:05:36,192 --> 03:05:38,192
questions that fully

5351
03:05:38,261 --> 03:05:40,430
understanding the. And I want

5352
03:05:40,430 --> 03:05:41,130
to say to Commissioner

5353
03:05:41,130 --> 03:05:41,698
McKinley, but can't say he's

5354
03:05:41,698 --> 03:05:43,299
always always on. The

5355
03:05:43,299 --> 03:05:43,666
PRESIDENT Always on the took

5356
03:05:43,666 --> 03:05:44,400
my time.

5357
03:05:44,400 --> 03:05:47,400
>> But listen, I have listened

5358
03:05:49,806 --> 03:05:51,641
to. Congressman Rat mass way

5359
03:05:51,641 --> 03:05:54,377
too much. And contrary to what

5360
03:05:54,377 --> 03:05:55,110
commissioner, good grades

5361
03:05:55,110 --> 03:05:57,411
articulated. I don't mind

5362
03:05:59,249 --> 03:05:59,983
confrontation. I love it. In

5363
03:05:59,983 --> 03:06:04,183
fact, I breathe it to be quite

5364
03:06:04,588 --> 03:06:06,220
frankly. This guy doesn't he

5365
03:06:06,220 --> 03:06:06,690
hasn't helped us one bit. He

5366
03:06:06,690 --> 03:06:09,900
hasn't helped really hasn't

5367
03:06:10,600 --> 03:06:10,794
helped his own people. One bit

5368
03:06:10,794 --> 03:06:11,494
as we've already, particularly

5369
03:06:11,494 --> 03:06:15,940
one of the things that bring

5370
03:06:15,832 --> 03:06:16,566
to the table, it's not only

5371
03:06:16,566 --> 03:06:18,000
just dealing with him and some

5372
03:06:18,000 --> 03:06:20,436
of the issues over on the c

5373
03:06:20,436 --> 03:06:21,104
44, there are areas, but

5374
03:06:21,104 --> 03:06:23,974
they're starting to work on

5375
03:06:23,974 --> 03:06:25,908
Shingle Creek. Now. And

5376
03:06:25,908 --> 03:06:28,308
Shingle Creek is extremely

5377
03:06:29,979 --> 03:06:30,647
important to us down here now,

5378
03:06:30,647 --> 03:06:32,820
the commissioners probably

5379
03:06:32,820 --> 03:06:33,116
haven't followed that because

5380
03:06:33,116 --> 03:06:33,816
they don't have the time. I

5381
03:06:33,816 --> 03:06:34,951
have the time to follow this

5382
03:06:34,951 --> 03:06:37,687
stuff. So Shingle Creek is

5383
03:06:37,687 --> 03:06:40,870
really important. Low cars,

5384
03:06:40,690 --> 03:06:41,391
very important. We just saw

5385
03:06:41,391 --> 03:06:43,960
that and that Bill Lowes sent

5386
03:06:43,960 --> 03:06:45,610
over to the houses yesterday

5387
03:06:45,610 --> 03:06:46,950
that give the authorization

5388
03:06:46,950 --> 03:06:46,796
for South Florida water

5389
03:06:46,796 --> 03:06:48,796
Management Start negotiating.

5390
03:06:50,199 --> 03:06:50,900
Purchasing property. So that

5391
03:06:50,900 --> 03:06:53,470
is a very important piece.

5392
03:06:53,470 --> 03:06:56,239
Porous relative to even in

5393
03:06:56,239 --> 03:06:56,873
conjunction with the sta. So I

5394
03:06:56,873 --> 03:06:59,242
think you bring the bill

5395
03:06:59,242 --> 03:07:00,577
wealth and knowledge to help

5396
03:07:00,577 --> 03:07:02,813
us. But one thing never forget

5397
03:07:02,813 --> 03:07:06,616
it as I got people to the west

5398
03:07:06,616 --> 03:07:07,550
on the Caloosahatchee. But

5399
03:07:07,550 --> 03:07:08,117
also we feed water to all of

5400
03:07:08,117 --> 03:07:10,517
the folks on Broward,

5401
03:07:11,688 --> 03:07:12,722
Miami-Dade, Monroe County, and

5402
03:07:12,722 --> 03:07:16,322
expect us to very focused in

5403
03:07:16,560 --> 03:07:17,260
terms of making sure orders

5404
03:07:17,260 --> 03:07:20,300
clear, clean that they can be

5405
03:07:20,300 --> 03:07:20,997
able to use of so I'm

5406
03:07:20,997 --> 03:07:23,397
comfortable with Melissa Work

5407
03:07:24,234 --> 03:07:24,968
with are a number of years and

5408
03:07:24,968 --> 03:07:26,903
I'm comfortable with your your

5409
03:07:26,903 --> 03:07:28,572
organization order to help

5410
03:07:28,572 --> 03:07:31,374
manage some of the issues that

5411
03:07:31,374 --> 03:07:32,900
not only exist today. But as I

5412
03:07:32,900 --> 03:07:35,900
said with a Shingle creek

5413
03:07:35,579 --> 03:07:37,280
process coming online, those

5414
03:07:37,280 --> 03:07:37,948
particular issues either hurt

5415
03:07:37,948 --> 03:07:38,615
or help us. And we need to

5416
03:07:38,615 --> 03:07:41,484
that type of support. Thank

5417
03:07:41,484 --> 03:07:45,684

5418
03:07:49,426 --> 03:07:50,227

5541
03:13:18,255 --> 03:13:19,924
districts to navigate those

5542
03:13:19,924 --> 03:13:22,324
water quality policies secure

5543
03:13:23,461 --> 03:13:25,230
funding. We're experts at data

5544
03:13:25,230 --> 03:13:26,931
analysis and technical

5545
03:13:26,931 --> 03:13:28,132

5547
03:13:32,704 --> 03:13:34,238
Watershed Assessment model and

5548
03:13:34,238 --> 03:13:37,909
one that guided the tmdl and b

5549
03:13:37,909 --> 03:13:38,843
map criterion targets on our

5550
03:13:38,843 --> 03:13:41,345
team. We have the tools

5551
03:13:41,345 --> 03:13:41,980
necessary to effectively and

5552
03:13:41,980 --> 03:13:43,980
efficiently evaluate what

5553
03:13:46,217 --> 03:13:49,817
works best for the county. We

5554
03:13:50,955 --> 03:13:53,992
have a great that proven their

5555
03:13:53,992 --> 03:13:55,192
ability to rattle various

5556
03:13:55,192 --> 03:13:55,926
stakeholders together and

5557
03:13:55,926 --> 03:13:57,962
provide that public engagement

5558
03:13:57,962 --> 03:13:58,562
strategies and by and to make

5559
03:13:58,562 --> 03:14:00,962
these projects come to

5560
03:14:01,699 --> 03:14:03,434
fruition. And we have a lot of

5561
03:14:03,434 --> 03:14:05,834
experience and getting helping

5562
03:14:07,472 --> 03:14:08,390
you get funding designing

5563
03:14:08,390 --> 03:14:10,390
installing those big

5564
03:14:13,110 --> 03:14:14,579
infrastructure type projects.

5565
03:14:14,579 --> 03:14:18,150
Our team has proven results in

5566
03:14:18,150 --> 03:14:19,840
the Lake Okeechobee watershed.

5567
03:14:19,840 --> 03:14:21,520
We have over 20 years of

5568
03:14:21,520 --> 03:14:22,720
experience working here

5569
03:14:22,720 --> 03:14:23,388
locally. We have technical

5570
03:14:23,388 --> 03:14:25,788
success stories that we've

5571
03:14:26,858 --> 03:14:29,858
done here. From the watershed

5572
03:14:29,895 --> 03:14:30,495
assessment model that's been

5573
03:14:30,495 --> 03:14:32,495
developed. We've helped

5574
03:14:32,663 --> 03:14:35,663
improve water quality in the

5575
03:14:37,702 --> 03:14:38,803
past 20 years from your ag

5576
03:14:38,803 --> 03:14:39,470
producers through nutrient

5577
03:14:39,470 --> 03:14:41,870
management design of still

5578
03:14:42,941 --> 03:14:44,743
water control type systems,

5579
03:14:44,743 --> 03:14:46,611
retention systems helping your

5580
03:14:46,611 --> 03:14:47,312
ag community do sustainable

5581
03:14:47,312 --> 03:14:47,979
agriculture practices. We've

5582
03:14:47,979 --> 03:14:50,379
been doing that since 2005

5583
03:14:51,682 --> 03:14:52,450
right here locally. We've

5584
03:14:52,450 --> 03:14:54,850
implemented bmps on over 105

5585
03:14:56,210 --> 03:14:56,654
forms in Okeechobee. These

5586
03:14:56,654 --> 03:14:59,654
are, you know, from small

5587
03:15:01,693 --> 03:15:04,229
farms to dairy farms. We've

5588
03:15:04,229 --> 03:15:04,863
spending 32,515 acres as Iran

5589
03:15:04,863 --> 03:15:07,863
just grow crops and dairy

5590
03:15:08,300 --> 03:15:09,000
farms. We've actually worked

5591
03:15:09,000 --> 03:15:10,435
on over half a million acres

5592
03:15:10,435 --> 03:15:12,737
of agricultural land here

5593
03:15:12,737 --> 03:15:15,400
locally. You know, we count

5594
03:15:15,400 --> 03:15:15,940
Larson, dairy MacArthur Farm

5595
03:15:15,940 --> 03:15:17,909
smoking are, you know, we're

5596
03:15:17,909 --> 03:15:20,909
partners with them. We want

5597
03:15:20,912 --> 03:15:23,810
them to be successful. We help

5598
03:15:23,810 --> 03:15:23,781
guide them through the

5599
03:15:23,781 --> 03:15:24,549
environmental, you know,

5600
03:15:24,549 --> 03:15:25,750
regulatory hurdles and help

5601
03:15:25,750 --> 03:15:26,518
them find funding to be

5602
03:15:26,518 --> 03:15:28,918
successful. And we've been

5603
03:15:30,288 --> 03:15:30,989
even able to do that just with

5604
03:15:30,989 --> 03:15:31,556
fx funding alone, we've been

5605
03:15:31,556 --> 03:15:33,956
able to acquire over

5606
03:15:34,292 --> 03:15:35,393
17 billion dollars in funds as

5607
03:15:35,393 --> 03:15:36,995
of today. We have another

5608
03:15:36,995 --> 03:15:38,995
2 million hopefully coming

5609
03:15:39,931 --> 03:15:41,933
soon to help the our producers

5610
03:15:41,933 --> 03:15:42,600
meet those environmental

5611
03:15:42,600 --> 03:15:45,600
challenges. So we bring the

5612
03:15:45,870 --> 03:15:46,771
unmatched depth and science

5613
03:15:46,771 --> 03:15:48,340
funding and stakeholder trust

5614
03:15:48,340 --> 03:15:51,340
to the agile Agra Okeechobee,

5615
03:15:53,411 --> 03:15:54,613
agriculture community. We have

5616
03:15:54,613 --> 03:15:55,179
experience in identifying if

5617
03:15:55,179 --> 03:15:55,780
effective abatements

5618
03:15:55,780 --> 03:15:57,415
strategies for the Lake

5619
03:15:57,415 --> 03:16:00,415
Okeechobee. The map using that

5620
03:16:00,952 --> 03:16:01,686
water should assess of model

5621
03:16:01,686 --> 03:16:03,855
using we can identify the most

5622
03:16:03,855 --> 03:16:06,255
effective solutions. And the

5623
03:16:07,920 --> 03:16:09,920
Lake Okeechobee watershed

5624
03:16:09,160 --> 03:16:10,194
evaluating the mp strategies

5625
03:16:10,194 --> 03:16:10,862
by comparing nutrient loads

5626
03:16:10,862 --> 03:16:13,262
under existing and historic

5627
03:16:16,100 --> 03:16:17,702
conditions. We've supported

5628
03:16:17,702 --> 03:16:18,403
state agencies, dp Water

5629
03:16:18,403 --> 03:16:20,605
Management District f dax and

5630
03:16:20,605 --> 03:16:23,408
we finding those b map

5631
03:16:23,408 --> 03:16:24,109
strategies and we've created a

5632
03:16:24,109 --> 03:16:26,145
tool to evaluate mp's in

5633
03:16:26,145 --> 03:16:28,179
projects that offer the

5634
03:16:28,179 --> 03:16:28,980
highest fastest and most cost

5635
03:16:28,980 --> 03:16:29,614
effective water quality

5636
03:16:29,614 --> 03:16:32,140
improvement in the Lake.

5637
03:16:33,185 --> 03:16:33,952
Okeechobee watershed. Our

5638
03:16:33,952 --> 03:16:36,352
modeling and sites directly

5639
03:16:37,222 --> 03:16:37,889
inform agency policies and

5640
03:16:37,889 --> 03:16:39,889
improved sources targeting

5641
03:16:42,427 --> 03:16:43,828
across the watershed. We

5642
03:16:43,828 --> 03:16:45,828
understand the upstream

5643
03:16:46,764 --> 03:16:47,432
influence. We've modeled it.

5644
03:16:47,432 --> 03:16:49,100
We help come up with a tmdl

5645
03:16:49,100 --> 03:16:52,700
the b maps for the Upper

5646
03:16:53,137 --> 03:16:55,537
Kissimmee watershed. We've win

5647
03:16:56,174 --> 03:16:57,976
in our development. We noticed

5648
03:16:57,976 --> 03:16:59,770
that there was a key data

5649
03:16:59,770 --> 03:16:59,778
gaps. So we implemented

5650
03:16:59,778 --> 03:17:00,412
moderate stratum on attorney

5651
03:17:00,412 --> 03:17:02,812
strategies to improve the

5652
03:17:03,549 --> 03:17:05,170
accuracy and the coverage

5653
03:17:05,170 --> 03:17:05,617
modeled and rank the app's by

5654
03:17:05,617 --> 03:17:07,617
cost effectiveness and

5655
03:17:08,553 --> 03:17:10,553
nutrient reduction potential.

5656
03:17:10,622 --> 03:17:11,357
We provided the decision

5657
03:17:11,357 --> 03:17:11,856
makers with the scenario based

5658
03:17:11,856 --> 03:17:13,856
outcomes to guide

5659
03:17:17,462 --> 03:17:19,862
implementation. This is an

5660
03:17:20,366 --> 03:17:21,330
example of actual bmp. That

5661
03:17:21,330 --> 03:17:24,330
was that's that's a success

5662
03:17:24,135 --> 03:17:25,370
story right here locally. In

5663
03:17:25,370 --> 03:17:28,340
Okeechobee. This is a storm

5664
03:17:28,340 --> 03:17:30,375
water. Reuse alternative water

5665
03:17:30,375 --> 03:17:32,100
supply project that put

5666
03:17:32,100 --> 03:17:32,678
together. It's been designed,

5667
03:17:32,678 --> 03:17:34,678
constructed, permitted. We

5668
03:17:36,150 --> 03:17:36,715
were able to get funding from

5669
03:17:36,715 --> 03:17:39,715
various agencies to our total

5670
03:17:42,153 --> 03:17:43,376
around 1.5 million. This is an

5671
03:17:43,376 --> 03:17:43,923
example of how can work for

5672
03:17:43,923 --> 03:17:46,758
you and how you can have

5673
03:17:46,758 --> 03:17:49,628
projects that are one win. You

5674
03:17:49,628 --> 03:17:50,328
know, this is solution that

5675
03:17:50,328 --> 03:17:50,929
shows, you know, kuz it with

5676
03:17:50,929 --> 03:17:51,863
storm water, retention

5677
03:17:51,863 --> 03:17:54,799
combining that with the need

5678
03:17:54,799 --> 03:17:56,235
for irrigation. And reuse of

5679
03:17:56,235 --> 03:17:56,902
irrigation. And it resulted in

5680
03:17:56,902 --> 03:17:59,302
a nutrient reduction of 92%

5681
03:18:00,706 --> 03:18:03,706
from the farm decrease water

5682
03:18:04,676 --> 03:18:05,410
use by 29%. Solutions like the

5683
03:18:05,410 --> 03:18:07,460
shows how water quality

5684
03:18:07,460 --> 03:18:09,446
improvements can also solve

5685
03:18:15,587 --> 03:18:16,188
supply and cost challenges.

5686
03:18:16,188 --> 03:18:17,890
With their ever growing

5687
03:18:17,890 --> 03:18:20,890
population. You know, we also

5688
03:18:20,225 --> 03:18:22,160

5703
03:18:45,250 --> 03:18:45,818
over 20 of these projects for

5704
03:18:45,818 --> 03:18:48,818
a total cost of over

5705
03:18:49,870 --> 03:18:51,870
101 million dollars. We've

5706
03:18:53,859 --> 03:18:55,859
moved 3,775 6 6 septic systems

5707
03:18:56,620 --> 03:18:57,629
and installed. 38.6 miles

5708
03:18:57,629 --> 03:18:58,230

5730
03:19:38,700 --> 03:19:40,700
We incorporate public

5733
03:19:45,244 --> 03:19:46,846

5735
03:19:49,214 --> 03:19:51,450

5736
03:19:51,450 --> 03:19:53,850

5737
03:19:53,850 --> 03:19:53,685

foster community-based

5739
03:19:56,155 --> 03:19:58,155
solutions and initiatives.

5740
03:19:58,223 --> 03:19:59,225
Some examples of these are

5741
03:19:59,225 --> 03:20:00,492
appear presented for the Saint

5744
03:20:04,797 --> 03:20:06,797

and other state agencies. And

5756
03:20:23,181 --> 03:20:23,883
we were able to help wrangle

5757
03:20:23,883 --> 03:20:26,883
all those different people in

5758
03:20:28,520 --> 03:20:29,321
different interest together to

5759
03:20:29,321 --> 03:20:29,956

Water Resource Development

5763
03:20:39,131 --> 03:20:40,399
Project. We had the added

5764
03:20:40,399 --> 03:20:42,799
complication of having state

5765
03:20:44,303 --> 03:20:44,970

collaboration, open

5771
03:20:52,478 --> 03:20:53,780
communication and outreach. We

5772
03:20:53,780 --> 03:20:56,678
were able to come to a

5773
03:20:58,618 --> 03:20:59,585
consensus and move forward.

5872
03:23:46,619 --> 03:23:49,190

sir. 2%. Was him. Yes,

5876
03:24:04,604 --> 03:24:05,338
Kimberly are killing them

5877
03:24:05,338 --> 03:24:08,808
either. Okay, you'd like to be

5878
03:24:08,808 --> 03:24:09,976
called Kevin. My dad always

5879
03:24:09,976 --> 03:24:10,910
told me the most important

5880
03:24:10,910 --> 03:24:13,910
word in English language is

5881
03:24:16,149 --> 03:24:17,684
somebodys So.

5882
03:24:17,684 --> 03:24:19,353
>> I hear a lot of references

5883
03:24:19,353 --> 03:24:22,689
to ag, I want a guy, you know,

5884
03:24:22,689 --> 03:24:23,222
that's where my my personal

5885
03:24:23,222 --> 03:24:26,222
heart is. But as a

5886
03:24:27,227 --> 03:24:28,762
commissioner. We're really

5887
03:24:28,762 --> 03:24:29,529
going to get hurt in our

5888
03:24:29,529 --> 03:24:31,929
tourism industry. That's most

5889
03:24:32,466 --> 03:24:34,167
ranchers and farmers. They

5890
03:24:34,167 --> 03:24:34,834
want nothing from their county

5891
03:24:34,834 --> 03:24:37,360
government. Other leave of

5892
03:24:37,360 --> 03:24:38,438
They don't. They don't rarely

5893
03:24:38,438 --> 03:24:41,741
does a farmer or rancher ever

5894
03:24:41,741 --> 03:24:42,375
called us to ask for so some

5895
03:24:42,375 --> 03:24:44,775
tough assistance from the

5896
03:24:46,179 --> 03:24:49,179
county. But we're having to

5897
03:24:50,417 --> 03:24:54,170
really focus on. The health of

5898
03:24:54,954 --> 03:24:55,589
the wake one of 4 hour.

5899
03:24:55,589 --> 03:24:57,357
Tourism industry for, you

5900
03:24:57,357 --> 03:25:00,357
know, the health for the

5901
03:25:00,593 --> 03:25:01,228
fisherman for the fishing

5902
03:25:01,228 --> 03:25:03,628
tournaments. We also are

5903
03:25:05,640 --> 03:25:07,000
trying to our best job we can

5904
03:25:07,000 --> 03:25:09,000
commissioners of transferring

5905
03:25:09,369 --> 03:25:10,300
people from septic tanks to

5906
03:25:10,300 --> 03:25:12,300
sewer system, especially

5907
03:25:13,173 --> 03:25:16,773
closer to the lake that's a

5908
03:25:18,445 --> 03:25:19,179
big thing. But as

5909
03:25:19,179 --> 03:25:21,579
commissioners watching out for

5910
03:25:22,549 --> 03:25:23,984
our whole county I think our

5911
03:25:23,984 --> 03:25:26,984
tourism industry is the one

5912
03:25:27,120 --> 03:25:28,288
that it's going to need our

5913
03:25:28,288 --> 03:25:29,756
help more. Then the farmers

5914
03:25:29,756 --> 03:25:32,725
and ranchers in the dairy that

5915
03:25:32,725 --> 03:25:33,893
like I said, I think they they

5916
03:25:33,893 --> 03:25:34,594
take care of pretty much

5917
03:25:34,594 --> 03:25:37,594
everything that they need to

5918
03:25:38,731 --> 03:25:39,432
honor all they go way over our

5919
03:25:39,432 --> 03:25:40,634
heads to, you know, the state

5920
03:25:40,634 --> 03:25:43,340
and federal government. But

5921
03:25:43,804 --> 03:25:44,805
we're trying to look out all

5922
03:25:44,805 --> 03:25:45,772
the things we're trying look

5923
03:25:45,772 --> 03:25:48,308
out for is our economy, our

5924
03:25:48,308 --> 03:25:50,708
local economy, which is

5925
03:25:53,547 --> 03:25:54,248
heavily based on. You know,

5926
03:25:54,248 --> 03:25:57,248
best fish and speckled perch

5927
03:25:58,385 --> 03:26:01,521
and things like that. So I

5928
03:26:01,521 --> 03:26:02,222
think and I've said before. We

5929
03:26:02,222 --> 03:26:02,890
need somebody to have a seat

5930
03:26:02,890 --> 03:26:04,624
at the table. Are all these

5931
03:26:04,624 --> 03:26:06,426
other counties are meeting on

5932
03:26:06,426 --> 03:26:08,529
water policy because we

5933
03:26:08,529 --> 03:26:10,431
haven't had anybody. I think

5934
03:26:10,431 --> 03:26:11,832
we we get left behind. We get

5935
03:26:11,832 --> 03:26:14,768
missed out or we just don't

5936
03:26:14,768 --> 03:26:16,503
even get considered for some

5937
03:26:16,503 --> 03:26:17,704
of these things that the

5938
03:26:17,704 --> 03:26:20,704
coastal counties are trying to

5939
03:26:21,475 --> 03:26:22,943
get done for their economy. So

5940
03:26:22,943 --> 03:26:25,450
the weight means different

5941
03:26:25,450 --> 03:26:27,445
things to different areas.

5942
03:26:29,850 --> 03:26:32,386
They want. Deeper way for

5943
03:26:32,386 --> 03:26:34,521
water storage. We want shower

5944
03:26:34,521 --> 03:26:38,325
late for the health of the of

5945
03:26:38,325 --> 03:26:40,325
the underwater. Vegetation,

5946
03:26:41,940 --> 03:26:44,398
which in turn is a. The health

5947
03:26:44,398 --> 03:26:47,398
of our fishing industry. So

5948
03:26:47,701 --> 03:26:50,637
that's more were I 10, 2 focus

5949
03:26:50,637 --> 03:26:52,472
on this soon. Not as much the

5950
03:26:52,472 --> 03:26:56,720
dairy man and the ranchers and

5951
03:26:56,810 --> 03:26:58,378
and the Water Bowl. Farmers.

5952
03:26:58,378 --> 03:27:01,378
Rest of our economy and

5953
03:27:04,218 --> 03:27:04,485
Okeechobee. If I can just say

5954
03:27:04,485 --> 03:27:06,485
so.

5955
03:27:07,221 --> 03:27:09,390
>> When you look at map and

5956
03:27:09,390 --> 03:27:12,390
the modeling that's been done

5957
03:27:13,994 --> 03:27:17,970
and that the mp's the cost to

5958
03:27:17,970 --> 03:27:18,833
do a bmp plan, for instance,

5959
03:27:18,833 --> 03:27:19,500
is almost order of magnitude

5960
03:27:19,500 --> 03:27:20,901
less expensive for the same

5961
03:27:20,901 --> 03:27:23,901
amount of nutrients as it

5962
03:27:25,380 --> 03:27:27,708
would be in urban environment.

5963
03:27:27,708 --> 03:27:29,210
I think, you know, that road

5964
03:27:29,210 --> 03:27:29,944
feeling is definitely

5965
03:27:29,944 --> 03:27:32,944
incorporated into the heart of

5966
03:27:33,880 --> 03:27:35,480
Okeechobee, you know, and

5967
03:27:35,480 --> 03:27:37,684
farmers are the best stewards

5968
03:27:37,684 --> 03:27:39,519
of the land, right? And and

5969
03:27:39,519 --> 03:27:40,253
the health of their land. You

5970
03:27:40,253 --> 03:27:42,956
know, also it's direct related

5971
03:27:42,956 --> 03:27:46,927
to the health of the lake, but

5972
03:27:46,927 --> 03:27:49,763
there an ability there, too,

5973
03:27:49,763 --> 03:27:52,763
implement some of these larger

5974
03:27:53,167 --> 03:27:57,367
are rural and the mp's to have

5975
03:28:02,609 --> 03:28:03,277
big effect at a lower cost. I.

5976
03:28:03,277 --> 03:28:04,278
>> I think ultimately, you

5977
03:28:04,278 --> 03:28:04,978
know, for health of the lake,

5978
03:28:04,978 --> 03:28:07,978
it's the nutrient load that's

5979
03:28:08,682 --> 03:28:09,783
going into lake. So. How do

5980
03:28:09,783 --> 03:28:10,418
you reduce the nutrient load,

5981
03:28:10,418 --> 03:28:13,418
whether it's from egg or

5982
03:28:16,123 --> 03:28:16,790
whatever land use and improve

5983
03:28:16,790 --> 03:28:18,790
the fisheries everything's

5984
03:28:20,610 --> 03:28:22,620
obviously tied to the economy

5985
03:28:22,620 --> 03:28:23,630
and the benefit of of our team

5986
03:28:23,630 --> 03:28:24,498
is we've got Doctor Boucher

5987
03:28:24,498 --> 03:28:25,165
and his model, the Wind

5988
03:28:25,165 --> 03:28:27,565
Assessment model, which has

5989
03:28:28,936 --> 03:28:29,636
been used by the Water

5990
03:28:29,636 --> 03:28:31,171
Management District ndp to do

5991
03:28:31,171 --> 03:28:34,771
that. The mp analysis and the

5992
03:28:35,409 --> 03:28:38,409
the beauty of the modeling

5993
03:28:39,279 --> 03:28:41,150
tool is you can infinite. What

5994
03:28:41,150 --> 03:28:41,716
if scenarios, you can put bmp

5995
03:28:41,716 --> 03:28:43,717
in any place in the watershed

5996
03:28:43,717 --> 03:28:45,717
to serve function.

5997
03:28:48,322 --> 03:28:50,322
>> Runoff from Orlando

5998
03:28:51,580 --> 03:28:52,593
stormwater treatment area for

5999
03:28:52,593 --> 03:28:54,993
some other watershed. But

6000
03:28:56,163 --> 03:28:56,931
we've got the ability run

6001
03:28:56,931 --> 03:28:58,165
through.

6002
03:28:58,165 --> 03:29:00,165
>> essentially any scenario

6003
03:29:00,367 --> 03:29:02,690
that seems logical to us to

6004
03:29:02,690 --> 03:29:02,769
come up with or your staff MAY

6005
03:29:02,769 --> 03:29:03,871
come up with where you cells

6006
03:29:03,871 --> 03:29:06,206
MAY come up with

6007
03:29:06,206 --> 03:29:07,410
>> I really want to see you do

6008
03:29:07,410 --> 03:29:09,576
this or evaluate We've got the

6009
03:29:09,576 --> 03:29:10,310
ability then to look at it

6010
03:29:10,310 --> 03:29:13,310
from the physics standpoint of

6011
03:29:13,548 --> 03:29:14,682
the water flows, the nutrient

6012
03:29:14,682 --> 03:29:15,383
removal capability of the

6013
03:29:15,383 --> 03:29:18,820
various the mp's in the month

6014
03:29:18,820 --> 03:29:20,821
and the model as well as do a

6015
03:29:20,821 --> 03:29:21,522
cost analysis to identify

6016
03:29:21,522 --> 03:29:23,357
cost-effective strategy. So I

6017
03:29:23,357 --> 03:29:26,957
think we've got this tool box

6018
03:29:27,428 --> 03:29:30,970
that can answer really is set

6019
03:29:30,970 --> 03:29:30,765
up to answer any question you

6020
03:29:30,765 --> 03:29:34,965
ask about what can we do in

6021
03:29:35,503 --> 03:29:37,505
various parts of our realm to

6022
03:29:37,505 --> 03:29:38,172
address water, quality issues.

6023
03:29:38,172 --> 03:29:38,839
So mean that we've got the

6024
03:29:38,839 --> 03:29:41,876
tools to do it. And it's a

6025
03:29:41,876 --> 03:29:42,610
matter of just sentencing the

6026
03:29:42,610 --> 03:29:45,610
right questions. You know, the

6027
03:29:45,846 --> 03:29:47,381
dep is done analysis and

6028
03:29:47,381 --> 03:29:49,381
prioritize basins throughout

6029
03:29:49,917 --> 03:29:52,860
the watershed. The makes any

6030
03:29:52,860 --> 03:29:53,654
watershed. That's one place to

6031
03:29:53,654 --> 03:29:54,589
start. They've done 5 year

6032
03:29:54,589 --> 03:29:56,390
trend analysis for every every

6033
03:29:56,390 --> 03:29:58,125
sub basin out there. So

6034
03:29:58,125 --> 03:29:58,827
there's lots of information to

6035
03:29:58,827 --> 03:30:01,462
start with. And we would just

6036
03:30:01,462 --> 03:30:02,163
sit down with you and your

6037
03:30:02,163 --> 03:30:02,830
staff and say, where do we go

6038
03:30:02,830 --> 03:30:06,430
first, what do you want to

6039
03:30:06,668 --> 03:30:08,536
look at? First? And we've got

6040
03:30:08,536 --> 03:30:09,336
the modeling tool to do it.

6041
03:30:09,336 --> 03:30:12,140
And again, it says this is

6042
03:30:12,140 --> 03:30:12,907
wonderful. What a scenario

6043
03:30:12,907 --> 03:30:13,574
analysis tool that eventually

6044
03:30:13,574 --> 03:30:16,744
will give you cause for how

6045
03:30:16,744 --> 03:30:17,311
much it costs and then do cost

6046
03:30:17,311 --> 03:30:19,711
is essentially a cost

6047
03:30:21,820 --> 03:30:23,482
efficiency analysis. To that

6048
03:30:25,190 --> 03:30:27,190
answer. Know.

6049
03:30:29,570 --> 03:30:29,757
>> And I'm sure all these ease

6050
03:30:29,757 --> 03:30:30,424
bmps in the whims of the pals

6051
03:30:30,424 --> 03:30:31,920
beings in the bam's and all

6052
03:30:31,920 --> 03:30:34,920
these things are very, very

6053
03:30:34,361 --> 03:30:34,962
important. But what we need is

6054
03:30:34,962 --> 03:30:37,962
somebody to go to these

6055
03:30:40,268 --> 03:30:41,636
meetings. And represent

6056
03:30:41,636 --> 03:30:42,336
Okeechobee County and hear

6057
03:30:42,336 --> 03:30:43,300
what they have to say. Thing

6058
03:30:43,300 --> 03:30:46,603
come back and tell us they

6059
03:30:46,707 --> 03:30:47,409
said this and we say no, we're

6060
03:30:47,409 --> 03:30:48,109
going to fight for you this.

6061
03:30:48,109 --> 03:30:49,577
We think what they're wanting

6062
03:30:49,577 --> 03:30:54,377
to do is good for them and bad

6063
03:30:54,615 --> 03:30:55,449
for us because we. We're not,

6064
03:30:55,449 --> 03:30:57,485
you know, we're not educated

6065
03:30:57,485 --> 03:31:00,485
and don't have the experience

6066
03:31:00,655 --> 03:31:03,655
in all this water policy

6067
03:31:04,125 --> 03:31:04,893
thing. I 20% of this board.

6068
03:31:04,893 --> 03:31:07,728
But what I'm looking for is

6069
03:31:07,728 --> 03:31:09,563
somebody that's going to be

6070
03:31:09,563 --> 03:31:10,264
our our quarterback or cheer

6071
03:31:10,264 --> 03:31:10,899
leader. That's going to go go

6072
03:31:10,899 --> 03:31:13,899
to these meetings. He was

6073
03:31:14,302 --> 03:31:17,902
going on. See what these with

6074
03:31:18,740 --> 03:31:20,740
these other counties

6075
03:31:22,430 --> 03:31:23,377
organizations are wanting to

6076
03:31:23,377 --> 03:31:24,312
do and recognize that this,

6077
03:31:24,312 --> 03:31:24,979
that that whatever it is or

6078
03:31:24,979 --> 03:31:27,348
what want to do is not good

6079
03:31:27,348 --> 03:31:30,518
for Okeechobee or is good for

6080
03:31:30,518 --> 03:31:32,887
Okeechobee or doesn't fall on

6081
03:31:32,887 --> 03:31:35,287
either side for Okeechobee,

6082
03:31:36,157 --> 03:31:37,725
but we we need somebody that

6083
03:31:37,725 --> 03:31:38,426
can go there those meetings,

6084
03:31:38,426 --> 03:31:40,610
comeback fight for a stunning

6085
03:31:40,610 --> 03:31:41,696
comeback. Doesn't say

6086
03:31:41,696 --> 03:31:42,364
commissioners. Here's what

6087
03:31:42,364 --> 03:31:45,833
here's what they want to do

6088
03:31:45,833 --> 03:31:46,534
give us the. The let the

6089
03:31:46,534 --> 03:31:48,536
Reader's Digest version. But,

6090
03:31:48,536 --> 03:31:51,239
you know, the like you're

6091
03:31:51,239 --> 03:31:51,940
talking at school bus, stop.

6092
03:31:51,940 --> 03:31:53,708
You know, without without all

6093
03:31:53,708 --> 03:31:56,108
the big words. Alright,

6094
03:31:58,512 --> 03:32:00,414
carburetor and mayonnaise.

6095
03:32:00,414 --> 03:32:01,820
>> No, I I understand your

6096
03:32:01,820 --> 03:32:03,218
question the concern and I

6097
03:32:03,218 --> 03:32:03,851
think we have a team that's

6098
03:32:03,851 --> 03:32:06,354
built for that to be able

6099
03:32:06,354 --> 03:32:07,455
provide what you're looking

6100
03:32:07,455 --> 03:32:09,124
for. But know we talked a lot

6101
03:32:09,124 --> 03:32:09,724
of technical all these terms

6102
03:32:09,724 --> 03:32:12,124
about the modeling and

6103
03:32:12,193 --> 03:32:15,329
watershed into b maps. But we

6104
03:32:15,329 --> 03:32:16,965
do have a policy maker on our

6105
03:32:16,965 --> 03:32:17,665
team in Short Hill. She's she

6106
03:32:17,665 --> 03:32:21,265
works a bfa. She's part part

6107
03:32:21,402 --> 03:32:22,103
of this team, ccs of policy

6108
03:32:22,103 --> 03:32:23,671
manager. She's a person. It's

6109
03:32:23,671 --> 03:32:26,671
helped guide policy. Bring all

6110
03:32:27,800 --> 03:32:29,344
the stakeholders together. But

6111
03:32:29,344 --> 03:32:30,845
first and foremost is to sit

6112
03:32:30,845 --> 03:32:32,470
and listen to understand what

6113
03:32:32,470 --> 03:32:34,282
your needs and your concerns

6114
03:32:34,282 --> 03:32:38,186
are and how do we best take

6115
03:32:38,186 --> 03:32:40,155
that conversation to the other

6116
03:32:40,155 --> 03:32:40,855
stakeholders and make sure

6117
03:32:40,855 --> 03:32:41,589
that we're working for you to

6118
03:32:41,589 --> 03:32:43,558
make sure that we're trying to

6119
03:32:43,558 --> 03:32:45,958
implement practices that will

6120
03:32:46,761 --> 03:32:48,761
ultimately benefit.

6121
03:32:48,897 --> 03:32:49,797
Okeechobee. Know, there's

6122
03:32:49,797 --> 03:32:51,133
there's various tools like

6123
03:32:51,133 --> 03:32:51,766
they, you know, every was

6124
03:32:51,766 --> 03:32:52,634
mentioned here. Gave the

6125
03:32:52,634 --> 03:32:55,770
presentation as a tool box to

6126
03:32:55,770 --> 03:32:56,871
help implement that. But we

6127
03:32:56,871 --> 03:32:57,939
need to know first and

6128
03:32:57,939 --> 03:33:00,241
foremost, what is your goals

6129
03:33:00,241 --> 03:33:00,809
and what is your needs? And

6130
03:33:00,809 --> 03:33:03,712
no, we sit with these

6131
03:33:03,712 --> 03:33:05,780
policymakers. Can have those

6132
03:33:05,780 --> 03:33:08,116
conversations to make sure

6133
03:33:08,116 --> 03:33:10,850
that that we are putting your

6134
03:33:10,850 --> 03:33:11,886
goals and your object first

6135
03:33:11,886 --> 03:33:12,587
and foremost, then we can come

6136
03:33:12,587 --> 03:33:13,321
back and figure out how do we

6137
03:33:13,321 --> 03:33:16,321
implemented? Make sure that we

6138
03:33:18,794 --> 03:33:19,494
use the tool box, all all the

6139
03:33:19,494 --> 03:33:21,396
all the items are a tool box

6140
03:33:21,396 --> 03:33:22,130
to make sure that we work

6141
03:33:22,130 --> 03:33:23,310
towards your goal to make sure

6142
03:33:23,310 --> 03:33:26,268
is implemented. But we do have

6143
03:33:26,268 --> 03:33:27,535
policymakers on our staff can

6144
03:33:27,535 --> 03:33:29,471
sit in the rules with these

6145
03:33:29,471 --> 03:33:32,340
folks and help guide those

6146
03:33:32,340 --> 03:33:32,807
conversations to shoot to suit

6147
03:33:32,807 --> 03:33:33,342
your interests.

6148
03:33:33,342 --> 03:33:35,742
>> I yield time of

6149
03:33:39,481 --> 03:33:40,348
commissioner So MR. Chair

6150
03:33:40,348 --> 03:33:41,783
>> up, assume I already know

6151
03:33:41,783 --> 03:33:44,419
the answer is and I'm not sure

6152
03:33:44,419 --> 03:33:45,487
which one of you is best

6153
03:33:45,487 --> 03:33:48,423
answer the question you listed

6154
03:33:48,423 --> 03:33:49,910
off some of your other clients

6155
03:33:49,910 --> 03:33:49,758
here locally. A lot of them

6156
03:33:49,758 --> 03:33:52,758
friends of ours people with

6157
03:33:53,529 --> 03:33:54,229
known her whole life. Where

6158
03:33:54,229 --> 03:33:56,629
could any potential conflict

6159
03:34:01,136 --> 03:34:02,871
come? What you're? Thinking

6160
03:34:02,871 --> 03:34:05,474
might be best County in the

6161
03:34:05,474 --> 03:34:06,275
greater scheme of getting

6162
03:34:06,275 --> 03:34:09,275
along with our other partners

6163
03:34:09,645 --> 03:34:12,645
and the watershed. Versus what

6164
03:34:12,648 --> 03:34:15,450
you're doing for existing ag

6165
03:34:15,450 --> 03:34:17,151
clients that you have here. I

6166
03:34:17,151 --> 03:34:17,820
can see a situation there to

6167
03:34:17,820 --> 03:34:20,820
wear what you MAY recommend

6168
03:34:21,924 --> 03:34:24,924
us. Maybe. Opposite of of

6169
03:34:25,360 --> 03:34:26,280
what's best for them. So how

6170
03:34:26,280 --> 03:34:29,280
do we avoid that potential

6171
03:34:33,769 --> 03:34:34,469
conflict? I don't really think

6172
03:34:34,469 --> 03:34:35,170
there's a conflict as much. I

6173
03:34:35,170 --> 03:34:37,570
understand your concerns very

6174
03:34:37,839 --> 03:34:38,607
much.

6175
03:34:38,607 --> 03:34:39,307
>> I think we all have the

6176
03:34:39,307 --> 03:34:41,377
same goal in mind is which is

6177
03:34:41,377 --> 03:34:42,110
cleaning up the lake. The

6178
03:34:42,110 --> 03:34:44,279
landowners want to do the same

6179
03:34:44,279 --> 03:34:45,800
thing. The only thing that

6180
03:34:45,800 --> 03:34:48,680
we're going to be fighting for

6181
03:34:48,817 --> 03:34:50,319
is the same pot of money.

6182
03:34:50,319 --> 03:34:50,986
Depending on what's out there

6183
03:34:50,986 --> 03:34:53,386
and available for available

6184
03:34:54,790 --> 03:34:55,924
cash here. A lot of it only

6185
03:34:55,924 --> 03:34:56,625
goes to private landowners and

6186
03:34:56,625 --> 03:34:59,625
they're going to be attacking

6187
03:34:59,895 --> 03:35:01,290
that very much. But several of

6188
03:35:01,290 --> 03:35:01,763
the policies and several of

6189
03:35:01,763 --> 03:35:03,766
the grants are associated only

6190
03:35:03,766 --> 03:35:05,766
with municipal governments.

6191
03:35:05,767 --> 03:35:06,469
And so I see that as a

6192
03:35:06,469 --> 03:35:09,469
separate goal, all trying to

6193
03:35:10,873 --> 03:35:12,700
beat the same thing. So we're

6194
03:35:12,700 --> 03:35:12,741
same regard says we're all

6195
03:35:12,741 --> 03:35:14,476
going after, you know, funding

6196
03:35:14,476 --> 03:35:15,911
to help us get to the same

6197
03:35:15,911 --> 03:35:19,511
goal. I don't really see a

6198
03:35:19,548 --> 03:35:20,282
conflict so much. We're a

6199
03:35:20,282 --> 03:35:20,949
particular landowners going to

6200
03:35:20,949 --> 03:35:22,183
do something that would be

6201
03:35:22,183 --> 03:35:22,918
against the goals of the

6202
03:35:22,918 --> 03:35:26,518
county. They all have the same

6203
03:35:26,822 --> 03:35:27,455
goal.

6204
03:35:27,455 --> 03:35:28,189
>> Well, certainly is an

6205
03:35:28,189 --> 03:35:31,189
implied difference and go with

6206
03:35:32,294 --> 03:35:34,294
the. Profitable money-making

6207
03:35:34,896 --> 03:35:35,598
concern versus government

6208
03:35:35,598 --> 03:35:38,633
body. You know where we don't

6209
03:35:38,633 --> 03:35:39,335
have to look at. We don't have

6210
03:35:39,335 --> 03:35:43,205
to look at what this would be

6211
03:35:43,205 --> 03:35:44,272
best. But we can maybe make a

6212
03:35:44,272 --> 03:35:46,508
little more if we just do

6213
03:35:46,508 --> 03:35:47,242
this. Much of it were a

6214
03:35:47,242 --> 03:35:50,842
business and GOD love them and

6215
03:35:52,715 --> 03:35:53,749
all for it. And some of their.

6216
03:35:53,749 --> 03:35:54,349
Needs and desires also include

6217
03:35:54,349 --> 03:35:56,349
profitability of their

6218
03:35:59,587 --> 03:36:01,523
business. Where's that?

6219
03:36:01,523 --> 03:36:02,825
Wouldn't be the focus of a

6220
03:36:02,825 --> 03:36:04,226
municipal government like ours

6221
03:36:04,226 --> 03:36:05,127
are. Our business is strictly

6222
03:36:05,127 --> 03:36:07,863
to get it as clean and pretty

6223
03:36:07,863 --> 03:36:08,831
in pristine as possible to

6224
03:36:08,831 --> 03:36:11,433
make Okeechobee as a whole.

6225
03:36:11,433 --> 03:36:13,369
The most desirable place. For

6226
03:36:13,369 --> 03:36:15,369
future businesses, tourism.

6227
03:36:17,807 --> 03:36:20,476
Where Take it? Milken Arbery.

6228
03:36:20,476 --> 03:36:21,844
They still need to make money.

6229
03:36:21,844 --> 03:36:23,612
They have to stay. Totally I

6230
03:36:23,612 --> 03:36:24,313
totally agree with you. But if

6231
03:36:24,313 --> 03:36:25,881
you take a look at it the way

6232
03:36:25,881 --> 03:36:26,548
we look at it.

6233
03:36:26,548 --> 03:36:29,548
>> You have the same goals

6234
03:36:29,752 --> 03:36:30,419
that landowner has because you

6235
03:36:30,419 --> 03:36:31,860
can't just say I want that.

6236
03:36:31,860 --> 03:36:34,220
Make that like the clean as

6237
03:36:34,220 --> 03:36:36,125
possible. You have to save

6238
03:36:36,125 --> 03:36:36,825
yourselves. I have to use all

6239
03:36:36,825 --> 03:36:38,460
of the means that we're with

6240
03:36:38,460 --> 03:36:42,980
in my checkbook. To make it as

6241
03:36:42,980 --> 03:36:42,798
clean as possible. That's why

6242
03:36:42,798 --> 03:36:44,000
we're such big advocates and

6243
03:36:44,000 --> 03:36:44,700
trying to get state grant

6244
03:36:44,700 --> 03:36:47,202
money in federal grant money

6245
03:36:47,202 --> 03:36:49,138
to help you reach those goals

6246
03:36:49,138 --> 03:36:51,407
because nobody has the Golden

6247
03:36:51,407 --> 03:36:52,141
Checkbook. You have fiscal

6248
03:36:52,141 --> 03:36:53,842
responsibilities just like the

6249
03:36:53,842 --> 03:36:55,100
landowners have fiscal

6250
03:36:55,100 --> 03:36:56,110
responsibilities. They're

6251
03:36:56,110 --> 03:36:56,645
trying to make a profit.

6252
03:36:56,645 --> 03:36:59,481
You're trying to get the

6253
03:36:59,481 --> 03:37:00,182
biggest bang for the buck.

6254
03:37:00,182 --> 03:37:00,882
You're trying to get the most

6255
03:37:00,882 --> 03:37:02,718
water quality for the amount

6256
03:37:02,718 --> 03:37:03,419
of money that you're spending.

6257
03:37:03,419 --> 03:37:07,220
So I see them as very similar

6258
03:37:07,220 --> 03:37:08,724
goals. And that's why a lot of

6259
03:37:08,724 --> 03:37:09,459
times the grants are set up

6260
03:37:09,459 --> 03:37:11,794
with municipal on one side and

6261
03:37:11,794 --> 03:37:12,962
private on the other because

6262
03:37:12,962 --> 03:37:15,164
that's very difficult to mix

6263
03:37:15,164 --> 03:37:17,199
and match. And so we have team

6264
03:37:17,199 --> 03:37:17,833
members, you know, my team

6265
03:37:17,833 --> 03:37:19,835
been doing a lot for the

6266
03:37:19,835 --> 03:37:22,235
individual landowners over the

6267
03:37:22,938 --> 03:37:23,540
years. Where Barnes Ferland?

6268
03:37:23,540 --> 03:37:26,475
They do a lot with the

6269
03:37:26,475 --> 03:37:27,109
governmental and you know,

6270
03:37:27,109 --> 03:37:27,809
different types of grant

6271
03:37:27,809 --> 03:37:28,543
monies that are coming out of

6272
03:37:28,543 --> 03:37:29,311
state, federal for

6273
03:37:29,311 --> 03:37:31,414
municipalities. And so that's

6274
03:37:31,414 --> 03:37:34,550
why we put this team together.

6275
03:37:34,550 --> 03:37:35,351
It's because we feel that if

6276
03:37:35,351 --> 03:37:35,985
we can meet your objectives

6277
03:37:35,985 --> 03:37:37,985
were meeting everybody's

6278
03:37:40,756 --> 03:37:43,156
objectives. That could be

6279
03:37:44,930 --> 03:37:45,294
okay. Yes, sir.

6280
03:37:45,294 --> 03:37:47,163
>> You know, I don't disagree

6281
03:37:47,163 --> 03:37:48,363
with what you just articulated

6282
03:37:48,363 --> 03:37:49,970
because ultimately the

6283
03:37:49,970 --> 03:37:49,799
landowners really need to have

6284
03:37:49,799 --> 03:37:51,601
the water clinging to because

6285
03:37:51,601 --> 03:37:53,669
their water goes off into the

6286
03:37:53,669 --> 03:37:54,671
leak. And one of the things

6287
03:37:54,671 --> 03:37:55,371
that we're trying to focus on.

6288
03:37:55,371 --> 03:37:58,700
And and I keep up with a lot

6289
03:37:58,700 --> 03:37:58,674
of this, is that as just

6290
03:37:58,674 --> 03:38:01,740
articulated from putting up

6291
03:38:03,279 --> 03:38:04,146
the of

6292
03:38:04,146 --> 03:38:04,813
>> We're we're very what we're

6293
03:38:04,813 --> 03:38:07,149
looking for is to make sure

6294
03:38:07,149 --> 03:38:09,952
that we have an individual to

6295
03:38:09,952 --> 03:38:11,287
table order to help protect

6296
03:38:11,287 --> 03:38:11,987
the water here at the lake

6297
03:38:11,987 --> 03:38:14,987
because this water feeds East

6298
03:38:16,910 --> 03:38:16,892
West and South. And it just

6299
03:38:16,892 --> 03:38:17,593
told the commissioners a few

6300
03:38:17,593 --> 03:38:19,662
moments still got the Shingle

6301
03:38:19,662 --> 03:38:22,662
Creek Project coming up and

6302
03:38:24,700 --> 03:38:25,534
that in itself is good. But it

6303
03:38:25,534 --> 03:38:26,269
also has could have bad

6304
03:38:26,269 --> 03:38:28,237
opportunities to them. We need

6305
03:38:28,237 --> 03:38:28,904
to understand that the pros

6306
03:38:28,904 --> 03:38:32,504
and cons of those types of

6307
03:38:33,509 --> 03:38:34,443
things in one, we have an

6308
03:38:34,443 --> 03:38:35,144
organization is seeing these

6309
03:38:35,144 --> 03:38:38,800
in these meetings that cf acs

6310
03:38:38,800 --> 03:38:38,715
and meetings too, make sure

6311
03:38:38,715 --> 03:38:39,382
that the view aggressive

6312
03:38:39,382 --> 03:38:41,351
people, the power point of

6313
03:38:41,351 --> 03:38:42,850
people are putting up on the

6314
03:38:42,850 --> 03:38:45,850
screen, really don't hurt us

6315
03:38:45,221 --> 03:38:47,456
down here either from flooding

6316
03:38:47,456 --> 03:38:50,392
or water quality. That's what

6317
03:38:50,392 --> 03:38:54,129
we need in terms of of your

6318
03:38:54,129 --> 03:38:54,831
type of organization. Now, I

6319
03:38:54,831 --> 03:38:56,933
understand to be mp's and all

6320
03:38:56,933 --> 03:38:57,633
those types these of those are

6321
03:38:57,633 --> 03:39:00,690
important. But the end of the

6322
03:39:00,690 --> 03:39:00,803
day, is that. When we're

6323
03:39:00,803 --> 03:39:03,803
dealing with the water coming

6324
03:39:03,939 --> 03:39:05,241
down from the north, that

6325
03:39:05,241 --> 03:39:06,776
water has cost us severe

6326
03:39:06,776 --> 03:39:09,176
problems, whether it be

6327
03:39:11,847 --> 03:39:13,490
raising the lake. That stuff

6328
03:39:13,490 --> 03:39:14,250
that comes down out of that

6329
03:39:14,250 --> 03:39:17,250
after hurricanes and causes of

6330
03:39:17,787 --> 03:39:18,554
problems with with our late.

6331
03:39:18,554 --> 03:39:20,957
So I kind of agree with agree

6332
03:39:20,957 --> 03:39:21,857
with assessment that, you

6333
03:39:21,857 --> 03:39:22,859
know, the landowners to have

6334
03:39:22,859 --> 03:39:23,593
jet same objectives as we do

6335
03:39:23,593 --> 03:39:26,563
is clean water. I think that's

6336
03:39:26,563 --> 03:39:27,263
the bottom line and also agree

6337
03:39:27,263 --> 03:39:27,930
with the fact there's a whole

6338
03:39:27,930 --> 03:39:30,930
different pot of money that

6339
03:39:31,334 --> 03:39:32,835
the municipalities are are

6340
03:39:32,835 --> 03:39:34,737
counties as just couple

6341
03:39:34,737 --> 03:39:38,337
there's a lot of money's been

6342
03:39:38,474 --> 03:39:41,770
pushed over here for low car.

6343
03:39:41,770 --> 03:39:41,744
And so understand that. And so

6344
03:39:41,744 --> 03:39:44,744
not in a disagreement with

6345
03:39:44,881 --> 03:39:46,416
your assessment, but what I'm

6346
03:39:46,416 --> 03:39:47,283
looking for, I think as

6347
03:39:47,283 --> 03:39:49,283
Commissioner Goodrich the

6348
03:39:51,454 --> 03:39:52,121
other 20% over here is that I

6349
03:39:52,121 --> 03:39:54,390
know what it is. The city,

6350
03:39:54,390 --> 03:39:55,124
some of these meetings and

6351
03:39:55,124 --> 03:39:58,427
boring as all get out. There's

6352
03:39:58,427 --> 03:39:59,950
no doubt about it. Army Corps

6353
03:39:59,950 --> 03:39:59,796
of Engineers can put sleep

6354
03:39:59,796 --> 03:40:02,796
with theirs with their slide

6355
03:40:02,932 --> 03:40:04,932
presentations. But it's

6356
03:40:06,603 --> 03:40:07,270
important for somebody to be

6357
03:40:07,270 --> 03:40:07,937
there because they can they

6358
03:40:07,937 --> 03:40:11,741
can mess you up to in in a

6359
03:40:11,741 --> 03:40:12,800
heartbeat. I totally agree.

6360
03:40:12,800 --> 03:40:12,708
And

6361
03:40:12,708 --> 03:40:15,708
>> the uniqueness of our team

6362
03:40:17,680 --> 03:40:19,349
is the fact that. We can sit

6363
03:40:19,349 --> 03:40:20,249
there and listen to that

6364
03:40:20,249 --> 03:40:22,649
rattling on presentations that

6365
03:40:24,487 --> 03:40:25,188
are meant to. Mystify you into

6366
03:40:25,188 --> 03:40:28,188
saying that their position is

6367
03:40:30,160 --> 03:40:32,161
correct. When reality is we

6368
03:40:32,161 --> 03:40:33,163
have the technical tools to to

6369
03:40:33,163 --> 03:40:36,763
get you know, time out. That's

6370
03:40:37,100 --> 03:40:37,733
not We have the technical

6371
03:40:37,733 --> 03:40:39,235
stuff that we do a lot of

6372
03:40:39,235 --> 03:40:40,270
times don't want to talk

6373
03:40:40,270 --> 03:40:43,270
about. We have that horsepower

6374
03:40:43,473 --> 03:40:45,241
on our team. That we can fight

6375
03:40:45,241 --> 03:40:46,275
back because that's the first

6376
03:40:46,275 --> 03:40:48,945
step is, you know, there's a

6377
03:40:48,945 --> 03:40:50,280
lot of people that talk. They

6378
03:40:50,280 --> 03:40:51,114
talk about policies. They talk

6379
03:40:51,114 --> 03:40:51,848
about this and this is what I

6380
03:40:51,848 --> 03:40:54,818
want to have. And this is what

6381
03:40:54,818 --> 03:40:55,585
we should do. But if you don't

6382
03:40:55,585 --> 03:40:57,454
have the science behind you,

6383
03:40:57,454 --> 03:40:59,155
you don't really have a leg to

6384
03:40:59,155 --> 03:41:01,191
stand on. So if you can prove

6385
03:41:01,191 --> 03:41:04,191
your position by science. That

6386
03:41:05,195 --> 03:41:06,262
it comes back into, you know

6387
03:41:06,262 --> 03:41:06,963
what, you guys the politics

6388
03:41:06,963 --> 03:41:08,798
that, you know, the trying to

6389
03:41:08,798 --> 03:41:10,299
get funding and eccentric

6390
03:41:10,299 --> 03:41:11,000
cetera. So but we have the

6391
03:41:11,000 --> 03:41:14,571
science on our team to really

6392
03:41:14,571 --> 03:41:15,772
kind of. Kind of ferret out a

6393
03:41:15,772 --> 03:41:16,473
lot of the misinformation

6394
03:41:16,473 --> 03:41:20,730
that's going to thrown out at

6395
03:41:20,376 --> 03:41:22,178
you.

6396
03:41:22,178 --> 03:41:23,113
>> I appreciate what you said

6397
03:41:23,113 --> 03:41:26,483
because I sat through some of

6398
03:41:26,483 --> 03:41:27,718
the lowsome meetings. And we

6399
03:41:27,718 --> 03:41:28,351
see that Mother Nature just

6400
03:41:28,351 --> 03:41:30,751
tears lowsome apart. All

6401
03:41:32,556 --> 03:41:33,990
right. And that's that's the

6402
03:41:33,990 --> 03:41:34,624
key that people don't pay

6403
03:41:34,624 --> 03:41:35,291
attention to. His mother

6404
03:41:35,291 --> 03:41:38,610
Nature don't care about all

6405
03:41:38,610 --> 03:41:38,728
these meetings. When they come

6406
03:41:38,728 --> 03:41:42,165
in here with a hurricane or

6407
03:41:42,165 --> 03:41:42,899
100 year flood or maybe they

6408
03:41:42,899 --> 03:41:44,902
could get your they could care

6409
03:41:44,902 --> 03:41:46,903
less about being peaceful. But

6410
03:41:46,903 --> 03:41:47,571
we need to be able to be

6411
03:41:47,571 --> 03:41:50,571
prepared for those types of

6412
03:41:52,141 --> 03:41:52,842
things. Commissioner, to come.

6413
03:41:52,842 --> 03:41:56,442
>> So I have to probably tell

6414
03:41:56,713 --> 03:41:58,648
a little story, but recently

6415
03:41:58,648 --> 03:41:59,683
an investment group came to

6416
03:41:59,683 --> 03:42:02,520
our town. Wanted to do a water

6417
03:42:02,520 --> 03:42:02,585
project, but come to us. They

6418
03:42:02,585 --> 03:42:04,985
went right to water

6419
03:42:08,224 --> 03:42:10,590
management. Started working

6420
03:42:10,590 --> 03:42:11,628
together and then we heard

6421
03:42:11,628 --> 03:42:12,362
about it basically because

6422
03:42:12,362 --> 03:42:13,290
they never presented it to us.

6423
03:42:13,290 --> 03:42:16,499
And we heard about it. They

6424
03:42:16,499 --> 03:42:18,334
were already they're

6425
03:42:18,334 --> 03:42:20,503
purchasing the property is

6426
03:42:20,503 --> 03:42:22,380
getting involved. And our

6427
03:42:22,380 --> 03:42:22,739
question was because 2

6428
03:42:22,739 --> 03:42:23,473
neighborhoods in an air strip

6429
03:42:23,473 --> 03:42:26,430
in some other things that were

6430
03:42:26,430 --> 03:42:28,278
involved. Why does it have to

6431
03:42:28,278 --> 03:42:31,278
happen here were could create

6432
03:42:33,117 --> 03:42:34,885
a flood zone or impact

6433
03:42:34,885 --> 03:42:35,619
homeowners values and and

6434
03:42:35,619 --> 03:42:36,319
property and different things.

6435
03:42:36,319 --> 03:42:38,622
Why couldn't we move it this

6436
03:42:38,622 --> 03:42:39,222
way or that way? They talked

6437
03:42:39,222 --> 03:42:41,424
about storm water above

6438
03:42:41,424 --> 03:42:42,359
natural ground level and we

6439
03:42:42,359 --> 03:42:45,959
didn't have anybody to go to

6440
03:42:48,298 --> 03:42:50,334
ask. You know, good for us to

6441
03:42:50,334 --> 03:42:51,340
suspend. This will work won't

6442
03:42:51,340 --> 03:42:51,735
work because some of the sta

6443
03:42:51,735 --> 03:42:52,402
son, another border projects

6444
03:42:52,402 --> 03:42:54,802
haven't been successful. We

6445
03:42:56,340 --> 03:42:57,400
know that. Would that be

6446
03:42:57,400 --> 03:43:00,770
something you would go in and

6447
03:43:00,770 --> 03:43:00,811
investigate for us and say,

6448
03:43:00,811 --> 03:43:01,512
listen, this is the best place

6449
03:43:01,512 --> 03:43:05,712
for it or this isn't the best

6450
03:43:05,983 --> 03:43:06,350
place for her. Saying

6451
03:43:06,350 --> 03:43:07,117
question.

6452
03:43:07,117 --> 03:43:07,784
>> That's the beauty of the

6453
03:43:07,784 --> 03:43:09,853
tools that we have. We have

6454
03:43:09,853 --> 03:43:11,555
the entire basis already

6455
03:43:11,555 --> 03:43:12,222
modeled and so we can go in

6456
03:43:12,222 --> 03:43:15,222
there and to use different

6457
03:43:15,525 --> 03:43:16,960
areas. And, you know, maybe

6458
03:43:16,960 --> 03:43:17,628
they have a proposed area Fort

6459
03:43:17,628 --> 03:43:20,628
Week and then evaluate that

6460
03:43:22,990 --> 03:43:22,833
versus other areas.

6461
03:43:22,833 --> 03:43:23,500
>> What we try to do get ahead

6462
03:43:23,500 --> 03:43:26,403
of these projects when they

6463
03:43:26,403 --> 03:43:29,306
first come in because it's

6464
03:43:29,306 --> 03:43:30,574
much easier for a project to

6465
03:43:30,574 --> 03:43:32,142
be successful if state, local

6466
03:43:32,142 --> 03:43:32,943
and all the funding agencies

6467
03:43:32,943 --> 03:43:33,510
actually want to happen

6468
03:43:33,510 --> 03:43:35,510
because it's meeting

6469
03:43:35,913 --> 03:43:37,414
everybody's objectives. It's

6470
03:43:37,414 --> 03:43:39,382
really sad when somebody like

6471
03:43:39,382 --> 03:43:41,451
that comes in and then all of

6472
03:43:41,451 --> 03:43:42,152
a sudden you're the odd man

6473
03:43:42,152 --> 03:43:43,287
out trying to defend yourself

6474
03:43:43,287 --> 03:43:44,210
saying you're going to flood

6475
03:43:44,210 --> 03:43:46,421
by communities when everybody

6476
03:43:46,757 --> 03:43:47,391
else is already saying it's

6477
03:43:47,391 --> 03:43:48,580
almost funded. That's

6478
03:43:48,580 --> 03:43:48,792
counterproductive. What we

6479
03:43:48,792 --> 03:43:50,794
need to do is get everybody at

6480
03:43:50,794 --> 03:43:54,640
the table. We need to use the

6481
03:43:54,640 --> 03:43:54,764
tools that we have. We need to

6482
03:43:54,764 --> 03:43:55,499
make informed decisions based

6483
03:43:55,499 --> 03:43:57,868
on the information that we get

6484
03:43:57,868 --> 03:44:01,468
back from the models and then

6485
03:44:01,872 --> 03:44:03,440
move forward as a team

6486
03:44:03,440 --> 03:44:04,740
together because then they

6487
03:44:04,740 --> 03:44:05,942
hire or greater chance of

6488
03:44:05,942 --> 03:44:07,645
success. So I totally agree

6489
03:44:07,645 --> 03:44:08,345
with you. And I think we have

6490
03:44:08,345 --> 03:44:10,348
the team that can come in and

6491
03:44:10,348 --> 03:44:10,981
assess those things early on

6492
03:44:10,981 --> 03:44:13,981
and we can represent for

6493
03:44:17,210 --> 03:44:19,210
needs. Anyone else.

6494
03:44:20,290 --> 03:44:20,924
>> Okay. Thank you so much.

6495
03:44:20,924 --> 03:44:23,924
Appreciate We will be in

6496
03:44:28,232 --> 03:44:30,232
touch.

6497
03:44:43,347 --> 03:44:45,347
>> Placer.

6498
03:44:52,322 --> 03:44:52,989
Told the commission

6499
03:44:52,989 --> 03:44:55,989
don't. We don't. We number

6500
03:44:57,160 --> 03:44:57,795
one.

6501
03:44:57,795 --> 03:44:58,529
>> Representative, we had

6502
03:44:58,529 --> 03:44:59,396
number 2 presented. This won't

6503
03:44:59,396 --> 03:45:00,597
just won't be binding, but

6504
03:45:00,597 --> 03:45:01,264
this would be opposed win.

6505
03:45:01,264 --> 03:45:02,799
However, everybody, because

6506
03:45:02,799 --> 03:45:05,799
what they're doing. Number one

6507
03:45:12,309 --> 03:45:14,709
or number 2. 1, Somebody want

6508
03:45:15,646 --> 03:45:17,280
to make a motion to

6509
03:45:17,280 --> 03:45:18,849
administrative start

6510
03:45:18,849 --> 03:45:21,849
negotiations. I make a motion

6511
03:45:21,885 --> 03:45:22,552
to I'm sorry. Could I?

6512
03:45:22,552 --> 03:45:23,353
>> In case you want to make

6513
03:45:23,353 --> 03:45:26,356
this part of the negation part

6514
03:45:26,356 --> 03:45:28,392
of the motion looking for a

6515
03:45:28,392 --> 03:45:31,992
cap on the budget and some

6516
03:45:32,230 --> 03:45:33,264
references for you. We have

6517
03:45:33,264 --> 03:45:35,566
lobbyist right now that we pay

6518
03:45:35,566 --> 03:45:36,533
to federal law piece. We pay

6519
03:45:36,533 --> 03:45:38,933
30,000 East State lobbyist. We

6520
03:45:39,203 --> 03:45:41,806
pay 60,000, but while staff is

6521
03:45:41,806 --> 03:45:43,806
negotiating.

6522
03:45:45,709 --> 03:45:46,443
>> With the number one and

6523
03:45:46,443 --> 03:45:47,644
ksat doesn't work out that we

6524
03:45:47,644 --> 03:45:50,448
got to go to number 2. Is what

6525
03:45:50,448 --> 03:45:51,715
cap?

6526
03:45:51,715 --> 03:45:52,416
>> I'm not. But that number

6527
03:45:52,416 --> 03:45:53,384
one and number 2 is not my

6528
03:45:53,384 --> 03:45:55,619
ranking. If it doesn't go the

6529
03:45:55,619 --> 03:45:56,553
one, I go back to the drawing

6530
03:45:56,553 --> 03:45:57,287
board. Okay. Then what I cap

6531
03:45:57,287 --> 03:46:00,887
of a budget that you like

6532
03:46:01,125 --> 03:46:03,125
cheap.

6533
03:46:05,620 --> 03:46:06,531
>> And you go, wait a minute

6534
03:46:06,531 --> 03:46:07,640
later research and maybe look

6535
03:46:07,640 --> 03:46:09,464
and see what other

6536
03:46:11,201 --> 03:46:13,601
municipalities. We change I

6537
03:46:14,104 --> 03:46:17,704
did. And there's a range of

6538
03:46:18,750 --> 03:46:18,943
for water. Quality service is

6539
03:46:18,943 --> 03:46:19,677
between 40,080 1000 with

6540
03:46:19,677 --> 03:46:22,770
senior level, meaning probably

6541
03:46:24,480 --> 03:46:24,715
engineering. You know, more so

6542
03:46:24,715 --> 03:46:27,715
between 40 and 80 s what I

6543
03:46:28,180 --> 03:46:28,719
would think that range.

6544
03:46:28,719 --> 03:46:29,420
>> So there's recap what you

6545
03:46:29,420 --> 03:46:32,856
want. You want to you 1000 as

6546
03:46:32,856 --> 03:46:34,856
a cap.

6547
03:46:36,940 --> 03:46:36,794
>> I don't know enough say I

6548
03:46:36,794 --> 03:46:39,263
don't I hate know how telling

6549
03:46:39,263 --> 03:46:40,531
you that we have a cap.

6550
03:46:40,531 --> 03:46:42,333
>> based on the fact of the

6551
03:46:42,333 --> 03:46:44,733
service said that, you

6552
03:46:46,300 --> 03:46:46,670
outlined in the rf well, for

6553
03:46:46,670 --> 03:46:47,404
those that rfp Rfq part of

6554
03:46:47,404 --> 03:46:51,400
based on the service said, I

6555
03:46:55,279 --> 03:46:56,614
mean, just don't said Camp.

6556
03:46:56,614 --> 03:46:57,248
Let's do a range visitors

6557
03:46:57,248 --> 03:47:00,248
because we can't that was

6558
03:47:00,918 --> 03:47:01,853
going to be another.

6559
03:47:01,853 --> 03:47:06,530
>> But w w I was opened the

6560
03:47:07,191 --> 03:47:07,892
door when it was talk. This

6561
03:47:07,892 --> 03:47:10,428
will take time. Was what you

6562
03:47:10,428 --> 03:47:12,296
need know I don't think

6563
03:47:12,296 --> 03:47:15,896
putting the cap this is is

6564
03:47:16,868 --> 03:47:19,268
like. You've already. You've

6565
03:47:28,813 --> 03:47:29,547
already outlined The matter.

6566
03:47:29,547 --> 03:47:31,182
>> I do have say properly what

6567
03:47:31,182 --> 03:47:33,182
I'm thinking, but

6568
03:47:34,218 --> 03:47:35,186
>> it's almost like a brother.

6569
03:47:35,186 --> 03:47:35,853
Rather look at the menu first.

6570
03:47:35,853 --> 03:47:38,389
You know what this is what

6571
03:47:38,389 --> 03:47:39,423
will offer for this amount? I

6572
03:47:39,423 --> 03:47:43,194
don't know what a cap, but I

6573
03:47:43,194 --> 03:47:44,628
don't know what the typical

6574
03:47:44,628 --> 03:47:46,864
price of company that provides

6575
03:47:46,864 --> 03:47:47,598
it services have never it.

6576
03:47:47,598 --> 03:47:49,833
They provided to me. You know,

6577
03:47:49,833 --> 03:47:54,330
if you look at that. But they

6578
03:47:55,640 --> 03:47:56,574
tell you what they on the day.

6579
03:47:56,574 --> 03:47:56,713
What will mean. Look r#

6580
03:47:56,713 --> 03:47:56,839
#

6581
03:47:56,839 --> 03:47:56,956
#

6582
03:47:56,956 --> 03:47:57,790
#

6583
03:47:57,790 --> 03:47:57,475
,

6584
03:47:57,475 --> 03:47:59,875
the presentation that we

6585
03:48:00,845 --> 03:48:03,245
received from number one.

6586
03:48:04,480 --> 03:48:06,217
>> on the less than $80,000.

6587
03:48:06,217 --> 03:48:06,951
Well, that was to this point.

6588
03:48:06,951 --> 03:48:08,118
Don't even know if I'm allowed

6589
03:48:08,118 --> 03:48:09,420
to say that cause is not for

6590
03:48:09,420 --> 03:48:10,154
us to negotiate, but I know

6591
03:48:10,154 --> 03:48:12,490
we're trying to decide whether

6592
03:48:12,490 --> 03:48:16,690
or not there should be kept. A

6593
03:48:17,280 --> 03:48:17,662
pretty well human people.

6594
03:48:17,662 --> 03:48:18,396
Believe that you have to

6595
03:48:18,396 --> 03:48:19,730
understand what they're doing,

6596
03:48:19,730 --> 03:48:22,166
that they all that group of

6597
03:48:22,166 --> 03:48:22,967
people off variety of

6598
03:48:22,967 --> 03:48:24,967
services.

6599
03:48:26,904 --> 03:48:27,438
>> We are asking for one

6600
03:48:27,438 --> 03:48:28,720
service right right

6601
03:48:28,720 --> 03:48:28,773
Everybody's not include.

6602
03:48:28,773 --> 03:48:31,773
That's exactly right. None of

6603
03:48:32,277 --> 03:48:34,311
the they're just given us

6604
03:48:34,311 --> 03:48:37,311
report tree what they offer.

6605
03:48:37,348 --> 03:48:39,884
Well, they offer grant writing

6606
03:48:39,884 --> 03:48:40,585
help, offer negotiating

6607
03:48:40,585 --> 03:48:43,585
healthy. That idea But right

6608
03:48:44,322 --> 03:48:45,290
now you can be heard. Todd.

6609
03:48:45,290 --> 03:48:47,391
>> all along, not the right

6610
03:48:47,391 --> 03:48:49,270
with the grant writing. Well,

6611
03:48:49,270 --> 03:48:53,827
if you need it here, I got you

6612
03:48:54,432 --> 03:48:55,660
a grant and we will this is

6613
03:48:55,660 --> 03:48:55,767
the additional costs. And

6614
03:48:55,767 --> 03:48:56,467
that's how in you all of, you

6615
03:48:56,467 --> 03:48:57,201
know, exactly we're going to

6616
03:48:57,201 --> 03:49:00,571
we'll start out with this. But

6617
03:49:00,571 --> 03:49:01,840
if we need, it something else

6618
03:49:01,840 --> 03:49:04,543
really know them to go. But go

6619
03:49:04,543 --> 03:49:05,610
to you and say what you charge

6620
03:49:05,610 --> 03:49:06,311
to if we need to grant writer,

6621
03:49:06,311 --> 03:49:09,911
how much would you charge to

6622
03:49:10,214 --> 03:49:12,483
that? So are presented team.

6623
03:49:12,483 --> 03:49:14,119
We're not going for the team.

6624
03:49:14,119 --> 03:49:14,786
We're just going for a job.

6625
03:49:14,786 --> 03:49:15,453
You're just as what someone

6626
03:49:15,453 --> 03:49:16,688
just feed. You get any when

6627
03:49:16,688 --> 03:49:20,288
you need. Have you know what

6628
03:49:27,131 --> 03:49:27,798
the said. 8 when should

6629
03:49:27,798 --> 03:49:28,533
negotiate, integrates 8 for

6630
03:49:28,533 --> 03:49:30,201
your representative to do what

6631
03:49:30,201 --> 03:49:31,336
with what said. We want it

6632
03:49:31,336 --> 03:49:33,710
done than to go. Give you a

6633
03:49:33,710 --> 03:49:34,205
fee if you need to senior

6634
03:49:34,205 --> 03:49:35,206
engineers x amount, if you

6635
03:49:35,206 --> 03:49:37,742
need to JANUARY engineers and

6636
03:49:37,742 --> 03:49:38,409
then you can't have a cap of

6637
03:49:38,409 --> 03:49:39,110
any description because

6638
03:49:39,110 --> 03:49:40,345
Stanley Feet. And as you get

6639
03:49:40,345 --> 03:49:41,120
in the one person only.

6640
03:49:41,120 --> 03:49:43,848
>> The rest of them are as

6641
03:49:43,848 --> 03:49:45,848
needed.

6642
03:49:47,218 --> 03:49:47,952
>> Well, last time when we

6643
03:49:47,952 --> 03:49:50,352
negotiated of started national

6644
03:49:53,191 --> 03:49:54,926
floors, chair. Last time when

6645
03:49:54,926 --> 03:49:57,796
we chose the attorneys we

6646
03:49:57,796 --> 03:50:00,796
wanted, then we gave. The

6647
03:50:01,333 --> 03:50:03,733
administrator the ability to

6648
03:50:05,303 --> 03:50:06,270
go and negotiate with him. I

6649
03:50:06,270 --> 03:50:07,205
don't know if seems like it

6650
03:50:07,205 --> 03:50:10,205
probably be another good. A

6651
03:50:10,676 --> 03:50:11,410
good way to to handle this she

6652
03:50:11,410 --> 03:50:12,276
would come back to us and say,

6653
03:50:12,276 --> 03:50:16,476
look, this is what we I mean,

6654
03:50:18,716 --> 03:50:19,384
that would be my that would be

6655
03:50:19,384 --> 03:50:20,952
recommendation. Think she I

6656
03:50:20,952 --> 03:50:21,953
you to a certain degree

6657
03:50:21,953 --> 03:50:23,588
because I don't I don't want

6658
03:50:23,588 --> 03:50:24,689
to put caps on things. I agree

6659
03:50:24,689 --> 03:50:26,424
100% because I think what you

6660
03:50:26,424 --> 03:50:26,925
need to do is let her go and

6661
03:50:26,925 --> 03:50:27,793
negotiate years.

6662
03:50:27,793 --> 03:50:30,528
>> Here's a service that let

6663
03:50:30,528 --> 03:50:31,830
them if they come back say,

6664
03:50:31,830 --> 03:50:32,830
listen, give it to you on a

6665
03:50:32,830 --> 03:50:34,990
per hour basis and to do this

6666
03:50:34,990 --> 03:50:37,869
is going to take x amount of

6667
03:50:37,869 --> 03:50:39,869
hours. 5 meetings, 6 hours.

6668
03:50:40,105 --> 03:50:40,738
All right. Whatever MAY be.

6669
03:50:40,738 --> 03:50:43,738
And then they answer your

6670
03:50:44,609 --> 03:50:47,609
question. If we given time.

6671
03:50:49,314 --> 03:50:49,981
It's just like on. We're step

6672
03:50:49,981 --> 03:50:53,581
steps. Fire. If if an steps

6673
03:50:54,820 --> 03:50:56,555
organization. On cmt is that

6674
03:50:56,555 --> 03:50:57,689
chips to do. You have a guy

6675
03:50:57,689 --> 03:51:00,558
that does and then we would

6676
03:51:00,558 --> 03:51:02,827
her that person to do next.

6677
03:51:02,827 --> 03:51:04,629
The same thing with this piece

6678
03:51:04,629 --> 03:51:05,296
they they provided a litany of

6679
03:51:05,296 --> 03:51:06,231
services. So if you come in

6680
03:51:06,231 --> 03:51:10,350
here the next week and you say

6681
03:51:10,350 --> 03:51:10,736
want to do grant ready, then

6682
03:51:10,736 --> 03:51:12,700
you'd hire that individual to

6683
03:51:12,700 --> 03:51:15,390
do. Grant writing for out

6684
03:51:15,390 --> 03:51:15,840
Peart for all hourly basis.

6685
03:51:15,840 --> 03:51:16,507
And that's what she's going to

6686
03:51:16,507 --> 03:51:19,507
get the upper hourly basis

6687
03:51:19,778 --> 03:51:20,779
because that you don't know

6688
03:51:20,779 --> 03:51:21,379
how unless you go set the

6689
03:51:21,379 --> 03:51:23,779
number of meetings, you

6690
03:51:25,250 --> 03:51:25,917
meetings and You because

6691
03:51:25,917 --> 03:51:27,219
that's what you're asking.

6692
03:51:27,219 --> 03:51:27,953
You're asking to go to

6693
03:51:27,953 --> 03:51:28,687
meetings and give information.

6694
03:51:28,687 --> 03:51:31,289
Why don't we do this little we

6695
03:51:31,289 --> 03:51:31,656
live here negotiate and bring

6696
03:51:31,656 --> 03:51:32,491
it back.

6697
03:51:32,491 --> 03:51:33,692
>> If it does, if you can't

6698
03:51:33,692 --> 03:51:35,694
negotiate something, the board

6699
03:51:35,694 --> 03:51:37,462
approves him to go back to the

6700
03:51:37,462 --> 03:51:38,563
drawing board. Don't go to the

6701
03:51:38,563 --> 03:51:39,231
second right MAY be set up

6702
03:51:39,231 --> 03:51:42,734
kind of like think you are

6703
03:51:42,734 --> 03:51:43,902
like a retainer. There's

6704
03:51:43,902 --> 03:51:44,803
retainer for certain amount.

6705
03:51:44,803 --> 03:51:47,372
And if you go past that, then

6706
03:51:47,372 --> 03:51:48,106
it's time to feed the kitty or

6707
03:51:48,106 --> 03:51:51,276
if you haven't been using this

6708
03:51:51,276 --> 03:51:52,110
service for a while, you know,

6709
03:51:52,110 --> 03:51:53,311
maybe they'll give us a chance

6710
03:51:53,311 --> 03:51:54,790
to use the grant service

6711
03:51:54,790 --> 03:51:54,780
because there's been no

6712
03:51:54,780 --> 03:51:57,216
meetings for a while. So it's

6713
03:51:57,216 --> 03:51:59,616
just been sitting simmering.

6714
03:52:00,752 --> 03:52:02,540
So but I don't know enough

6715
03:52:02,540 --> 03:52:03,621
negotiate this more time will

6716
03:52:03,621 --> 03:52:05,924
be twice of going. And I agree

6717
03:52:05,924 --> 03:52:06,592
with I've got MARCH air. One

6718
03:52:06,592 --> 03:52:08,327
other question because I

6719
03:52:08,327 --> 03:52:09,610
wasn't here when this all got

6720
03:52:09,610 --> 03:52:12,610
started. Was there any amount

6721
03:52:15,600 --> 03:52:16,334
budgeted for this? No. Okay.

6722
03:52:16,334 --> 03:52:19,334
First woman hold coming answer

6723
03:52:19,704 --> 03:52:20,406
the question directly. There

6724
03:52:20,406 --> 03:52:21,106
not an amount budgeted yet

6725
03:52:21,106 --> 03:52:24,106
because we're going to start

6726
03:52:24,676 --> 03:52:25,343
doing the budget. So I

6727
03:52:25,343 --> 03:52:27,343
answered it appropriately.

6728
03:52:27,413 --> 03:52:30,413
From that standpoint. So are

6729
03:52:31,160 --> 03:52:34,119
we all in favor of that? Will?

6730
03:52:34,119 --> 03:52:37,719
>> So MISS Manzo loose on him.

6731
03:52:38,757 --> 03:52:39,391
>> The requested action. Is to

6732
03:52:39,391 --> 03:52:39,991
authorize the county

6733
03:52:39,991 --> 03:52:40,893
administrator to begin

6734
03:52:40,893 --> 03:52:42,994
negotiations with the top rate

6735
03:52:42,994 --> 03:52:45,394
from there you go.

6736
03:52:46,398 --> 03:52:47,666
>> Do you have MISTER Chair

6737
03:52:47,666 --> 03:52:51,266
the 7 Day b d you have.

6738
03:52:54,390 --> 03:52:55,841
>> And authority. Cap number

6739
03:52:55,841 --> 03:52:58,841
that you can sign without

6740
03:52:59,440 --> 03:53:01,313
bringing it back to us. No,

6741
03:53:01,313 --> 03:53:02,470
yes, no, not that, you I'm

6742
03:53:02,470 --> 03:53:06,247
MISS. Do for us? You've got to

6743
03:53:09,288 --> 03:53:10,723
come back to us. General, But

6744
03:53:10,723 --> 03:53:14,292
in this instance, it needs to

6745
03:53:14,292 --> 03:53:15,260
come back to which is fine. In

6746
03:53:15,260 --> 03:53:15,695
general, she could have a cap.

6747
03:53:15,695 --> 03:53:18,331
But the problem is that her

6748
03:53:18,331 --> 03:53:19,298
cat wouldn't pay for

6749
03:53:19,298 --> 03:53:19,965
>> So that's that's the

6750
03:53:19,965 --> 03:53:20,632
intent. Was that direction?

6751
03:53:20,632 --> 03:53:24,232
Now? That was answer to the

6752
03:53:24,403 --> 03:53:27,372
question. So she already has

6753
03:53:27,372 --> 03:53:28,741
to bring it back to us because

6754
03:53:28,741 --> 03:53:31,444
dollar. So I guess made the

6755
03:53:31,444 --> 03:53:33,646
motion or do I mean speak the

6756
03:53:33,646 --> 03:53:34,380
motion or she made the motion.

6757
03:53:34,380 --> 03:53:37,980
MAY removed motion. He's got a

6758
03:53:38,117 --> 03:53:40,485
second. Some. I move that we

6759
03:53:40,485 --> 03:53:43,956
do what I said. We motion by

6760
03:53:43,956 --> 03:53:44,656
Commissioner. Good bread, too.

6761
03:53:44,656 --> 03:53:46,458
Include all the verbiage you

6762
03:53:46,458 --> 03:53:47,993
missed. Just didn't Second by

6763
03:53:47,993 --> 03:53:50,295
commissioner to Carlo any

6764
03:53:50,295 --> 03:53:52,295
further discussion. Negative

6765
03:53:57,970 --> 03:53:58,871
attorney smiling. She smiled.

6766
03:53:58,871 --> 03:54:00,573
You got get keep it that all

6767
03:54:00,573 --> 03:54:01,740
in favor say Aye. Aye opposed.

6768
03:54:01,740 --> 03:54:02,174
Nay motion carries

6769
03:54:02,174 --> 03:54:03,241
unanimously.

6770
03:54:03,241 --> 03:54:05,000
>> Anything else? For the good
