of
Prayer.

is
once
a
month
again
that
you
have
allowed
us
to
see
a
brand
new
day

brand
new
year
and
we
come
to
say
thank
you.
Thank
you,
Father
for
all
the
blessings
I've
bestowed
upon
us

Foundation,

term

C
A
That
is
for
sure,
okay
approval
of
minutes
I
got,
and
there
was
some
concerns
about
the
edits
to
the
minute.
So
I
want
to
go
over
the
the
edits
that
I
made
along
the
way.
Let's
see
we
have
on
page.
A
Yeah,
it's
not
by
Pages
was
said:
16
championships,
there's
only
six
championships
on
the
following
page.
Instead
of
State
sort
of
stand,
the
next
page
I
want
to
add
Mr
Leroy
Bell,
so
we
knew
who
which
fella
was
in
Sylvester
Hall
to
the
minutes.
A
I
A
Then
went
under
the
noise
ordinance.
There
was
not
public
comment
listed,
so
I've
had
Susan
go
back
and
list.
There's
two
public
comments:
they
were
there
next
one
we
had
commissioner
Velasquez
asked
that
just
loose
there
and
then
down
farther
down
in
the
commissioner's
reports
had
200
and
it
should
have
been
200
000.
A
D
A
A
Look
for
a
motion
to
approve
okay
got
a
motion
by
commissioner
Becker,
a
second
segment,
commissioner
Smith
all
those
in
favor
aye.
All
opposed
motion
carries
unanimously
next
up
presentations,
best
foot
forward,
Emily,
you
want
to
Pam
you're
going
to
introduce,
or
are
you
going
to?
Let
him
just?
No,
you
don't
foreign.
J
A
Okay,
we
can
yeah,
hang
on
we'll
get
Rob
will
get
working
on
that
and
Edward
any
changes
to
the
agenda.
A
I
First
I'd
like
to
address
the
applied
attempt
by
the
City
attorney
a
couple
meetings
ago
that
someone
had
suggested
a
permanent
building
moratorium.
No
one
has
suggested
a
permanent
moratorium
by
appearance.
It
would
believe
to
me
that
the
City
attorney
believes
he
works
for
the
mayor
and
the
developers
funny
I
thought
he
was
an
employee
that
worked
for
and
reported
to
the
city
council.
You
have
slash
meeting
his
interference
in
the
fire
department.
Safety
Committee
was
met
with
deflection
and
distraction.
I
I
What
was
suggested
is
a
temporary
moratorium
until
things
like
the
traffic
plan
could
be
updated
and
the
work
begun.
The
infrastructure
plan
and
work
begun
when
the
city
put
a
temporary
moratorium
on
dollar
stores.
No
one
beat
an
eye
that
cost
a
family
member
of
mine,
a
contract
on
some
property
that
was
already
in
the
works.
You
didn't
hear
him
complain,
you
didn't
see
him
sue
the
city
by
the
city's
own
admission.
The
traffic
plan
is
years
out
of
date
by
the
city's
own
admission.
The
infrastructure
plan
is
out
of
date.
I
Why
can't
there
be
a
hold
on
the
plans
until
these
things
are
readdressed.
I
know
construction
takes
time,
but
just
our
plans
are
years
out
of
date.
Meanwhile,
traffic
gets
worse,
schools
get
more
crowded
and
the
city
gets
more
load
than
it
can
handle.
I
know
they
have
traffic
studies
and
Road
design
limitations,
but
let's
look
at
it
from
a
common
sense
point
of
view.
Not
an
engineering
point
of
view
seems
like
all
the
engineering
plans
did
not
help
areas
like
Shelor,
Oaks,
Clear,
Lake
and
other
developments
with
flooding
issues.
I
Several
months
ago,
I
asked
for
the
mayor
to
be
censored
on
items
relating
to
zoning
planning
and
density
changes
because
of
his
appearance
to
be
overly
involved.
In
the
Rock
Springs
Ridge
Land
exchange.
Well,
apparently,
here
we
are
again
a
meeting
was
not
posted
in
accordance
with
Sunshine
laws
was
held
and
again
I
understand
that
it's
been
mentioned,
there's
a
possibility
of
monetary
or
property
incentives
that
could
be
used
to
entice
the
Golf
Group.
When
Sheila
Oaks
flooded,
the
people
were
left
on
their
own
due
to
design
and
Engineering
floods.
I
When
Clear
Lake
flooded
and
it's
getting
deeper
every
day,
the
people
are
left
to
pay
for
it
for
themselves.
So
I
call
again
for
the
mayor
to
be
censored
on
property
issues,
zoning
changes,
density
changes
and
any
item
involving
City
funds
for
property
or
city
assets.
The
city
does
not
need
to
pay
the
bill
for
his
meddling.
We
have
too
many
derelict
buildings
that
the
city
owns.
We
have
water
mains
that
need
to
be
replaced.
We
have
roadways
that
can't
handle
the
loads.
I
If
the
commission
declares
a
property
access,
then
sell
it
at
market
value
and
put
the
money
into
infrastructure.
You
could
add
the
500
000
from
code
enforcement,
fines
since
they
don't
seem
to
repair
any
of
the
buildings
in
closing
Mr
weilerman.
The
attorney
stopped
the
Safety
Committee,
the
taxpayer
players
fought
so
hard
to
get
back
into
place
for
the
firefighter's
death,
whether
it
was
directed
by
the
mayor
or
not
as
the
question.
The
purpose
of
the
Safety
Committee
is
to
review
and
suggest
changes
in
any
accident
or
safety
issue.
I
Mr
weilim
and
the
city's
attorney
job
is
to
facilitate
it.
The
State
Fire
Marshal
has
been
done.
Niosh
is
in
the
works.
The
safety
report
should
have
been
completed
a
long
time
ago,
it's
time
to
be
transparent
and
stop
distractions.
Last
time
in
Central
Florida,
we
had
this
kind
of
meddling
in
the
safety
and
committee
investigation.
J
N
N
So
let's
look
at
some
facts
on
a
couple
of
items
in
a
statement
from
the
mayor
here
in
Council
and
during
his
press
conference
when
he
was
referencing
firefighter
Paul
echeveria,
his
resignation
from
the
Safety
Committee,
the
mayor
would
only
state
it
was
going
to
be
an
added
task
that
would
take
more
from
my
time
more
time
away
from
my
family.
Here
is
a
fact
for
some
reason.
The
mayor
only
mentioned
or
recalled
this
one
line.
N
The
facts
are:
there
were
several
reasons
that
existed
and
Paul
gave
them
in
his
full
resignation
letter
that
I
read
in
the
Apopka
voice,
Paul
States
I
was
informed
that
a
copy
of
the
letter,
the
one
that
Wyland
wrote
and
was
read
by
Maynard,
was
not
provided
to
the
Safety
Committee
members.
The
letter
was
mentioned
in
the
minutes,
but
was
not
written
in
its
totality
in
those
minutes
of
the
meeting.
This
is
concerning
Paul
also
States
in
his
letter.
N
Another
item
that
Paul
mentioned
was
now
even
more
troubling.
To
me
is
how
the
rest
of
the
story
has
unfolded
in
this
ad
hoc
committee
has
now
been
formed.
The
fact
that
two
organizations
and
a
legal
team
that
have
absolutely
no
idea
how
we
function
as
a
fire
department
and
are
going
to
critique
a
line
of
duty
death
of
one
of
our
own
and
exclude
the
Safety
Committee
that
was
formed
in
Austin
in
the
name
of
Austin
just
does
not
seem
right.
N
Here's
another
item
that
I'd
like
to
address
in
a
public
statement
from
the
mayor.
He
said
and
I
quote
the
last
two
verified
users
of
that
trailer
were
Chief
Conicelli
and
District
Chief
Banksy.
So
we
ought
to
ask
them
why
they
didn't
ask
to
take
that
trailer
out
of
service.
Well,
here
comes
more
of
them,
stubborn
facts:
why
is
the
mayor
trying
to
deflect
responsibility
towards
two
private
citizens
who
were
home
at
the
time
of
this
accident?
N
N
Also
if
the
city
or
the
fire
Administration
is
truly
interested
in
my
account
of
that
sand
trailer.
Why
have
they
not
questioned
me?
Why
have
they
not
reached
out?
The
mayor
has
known
that
fact
that
he
stated
for
months
now,
as
someone
had
truly
cared
to
ask
I
would
have
explained
the
whole
history
of
it
to
them.
I
was
here
from
the
beginning.
N
Trailer
going
back
in
service
and
the
senior
people
told
the
new
kids
at
the
kitchen
table
do
not
use
that
trail
and
no
matter
who
calls
for
it.
Unless
there
is
a
senior
person
around
to
help
that
trailer
can
kill
you.
That
is
a
fact
that
was
said,
mayor
Nelson,
implying
that
my
involvement
in
using
a
piece
of
equipment
years
ago
in
the
performance
of
my
job
contributed
to
Austin's.
Death
is
disgusting.
N
N
O
O
The
reason
I
have
come
here
today
is
to
implore
you
take
the
necessary
appropriate
steps
to
ensure
that
an
event
such
as
the
one
that
occurred
on
June
30th,
which
cost
the
life
of
the
person
I,
was
supposed
to
spend
forever
with
never
occurs
again,
while
I
realized
being
a
firefighter
is
a
dangerous
job.
Austin
did
not
lose
his
life
due
to
a
heroic
act,
such
as
running
into
a
burning
building
to
save
the
life
of
a
little
girl
or
boy.
O
O
O
Our
suffering
was
preventable
and
it
is
your
responsibility
to
ensure
such
tragic
loss
never
happens
again,
especially
due
to
something
that
had
slipped
through
the
cracks
and,
let's
not
forget
the
other
survivors
of
this
tragic
event,
his
co-workers
and
colleagues,
those
that
were
with
him
as
Austin's
life
hung
in
the
balance
that
fought
heroically
and
exceptionally
trying
circumstances
to
save
the
life
of
their
brother.
Their
lives
have
been
irreparably
altered
in
a
manner
that
brings
no
peace
each
one
thinking.
What
if
this
had
been
me-
and
why
did
this
have
to
happen?
O
Austin
was
dedicated
to
giving
his
dream
career
everything
he
had
to
offer.
I.
Remember
the
countless
hours
I
spent
in
the
car,
with
him,
driving
around
Apopka
to
the
hospitals,
each
of
the
fire
stations
and
through
back
roads.
So
he
had
the
confidence
that
his
lacking
sense
of
direction
would
never
hinder
him
in
performing
his
duties,
because
he
knew
the
magnitude
of
the
responsibility
he
had
accepted
and
being
a
first
responder
for
the
city
of
Apopka.
O
He
faced
everything
he
committed
to
with
the
same
Drive
commitment,
determination
and
effort.
He
always
wanted
to
be
as
close
to
perfect
as
possible
and
when
he
made
a
mistake,
he
would
beat
himself
up
then
investigate
evaluate,
consult,
review
and
relearn,
whatever
strategies,
steps
or
principles
that
he
had
missed
to
ensure
that
he
was
always
improving
and
becoming
the
best
firefighter.
He
could
possibly
be,
and
that's
what
was
expected
of
him
as
it
should
be.
O
Does
the
Apopka
fire
department,
the
city
Commissioners,
the
mayor
and
all
other
involved
parties
and
administrators
not
owe
the
same
to
Austin
and
all
the
other
firefighters
that
strive
to
reach
this
ideal
and
they
do
it
for
the
good
of
the
city
and
the
people
in
it?
How
can
you
hold
Austin
and
his
firefighter
family
to
a
higher
standard
than
you
are
willing
to
hold
yourselves?
O
A
tragedy
has
occurred.
A
mistake
was
made.
We
all
know
that-
and
we
have
all
had
to
accept
that.
However,
it
is
incumbent
on
you
to
do
as
Austin
would
do
investigate,
evaluate,
consult
review
and
relearn
new
strategies,
steps
and
principles
to
make
sure
that
senseless
tragedy
cannot
and
will
not
be
repeated
on
June
30th
when
I
walked
into
the
emergency
room,
to
see
him
after
he'd
been
stabilized.
The
first
thing
he
said
to
me
was
I'm
sorry,
with
tears.
Coming
out
of
his
eyes,
swollen
shut
by
the
trauma
his
body
had
endured.
O
He
felt
bad
because
in
his
mind
he
was
the
reason
that
the
lives
of
everyone
present
had
Frozen
in
Time
scared
of
the
intensity
and
the
severity
of
his
injuries
and
faced
with
the
uncertainty
of
the
situation
with
all
the
pain,
fear,
doubt
and
apprehension
that
came
with
it.
Even
in
the
moment
when
he
was
in
more
physical
pain
than
you
and
I
could
ever
imagine,
he
was
still
worried
about
others
that
was
Austin,
always
putting
others
before
himself
concerned,
most
with
the
impact
of
his
actions
and
how
they
affected
those
he
cared
about.
O
Another
of
Austin's
characteristics
was,
he
was
the
least
confrontational
person
you
would
ever
meet
and
hated
being
the
center
of
attention.
I
find
it
very
unsettling
that
his
death
is
requiring
those
of
us
that
loved
him
most
to
stand
up
in
an
effort
to
draw
attention
to
the
tragedy.
Austin
and
all
of
us
have
experienced
to
ensure
that
this
preventable
death
and
the
suffering
that
came
with
it
never
happens
to
another
Apopka
firefighter
to
insist
that
the
root
problem
that
caused
Austin
to
sacrifice
his
life
is
identified,
resolved
and
eliminated.
O
So
this
senseless
tragedy
becomes
a
lesson
in
organizational
improvements,
not
mistakes
being
swept
under
the
rug.
This
is
your
most
critical
responsibility
to
the
citizens,
to
the
firefighters
and
especially
to
Austin.
He
made
the
ultimate
sacrifice
which
shed
light
on
the
flaws
of
the
current
system
and
where
they
exist.
The
flaws
that
must
be
addressed.
Work
has
been
done,
but,
as
I
understand,
there
are
still
roughly
20
safety
concerns
that
have
not
been
addressed.
Please
don't
let
your
responsibilities
regarding
these
manners
slip
through
the
cracks
the
people
of
Apopka
elected
you
to
be
our
leaders.
O
It
is
the
role
of
a
leader
to
take
responsibility
for
the
negative
occurrences
in
a
system
as
well
as
receive
the
accolades
for
the
successes
in
the
things
they
do
well.
The
city
of
Apopka
has
much
to
be
proud
of
and
much
to
offer
those
who
love
this
community.
However,
we
are
all
dependent
on
the
services
provided
by
the
afd
which
fall
under
your
jurisdiction.
Please
investigate,
evaluate,
consult,
review
and
re-learn.
What
went
wrong
as
Austin
would
do
and
then
fix
it,
so
we
never
have
to
go
through
this
again.
D
D
Q
Q
Q
Q
Q
It
felt
to
me
that
it
was
held
to
minimize
the
death
of
my
son
and
criticized
two
highly
experienced
and
trained
firefighters
who
dared
to
speak
out
because
they
cared
all
that
press
conference
did
was
reinforced
to
build
culture
and
this
fire
department,
fractures
that
I
and
my
family
have
pushed
to
seal
and
bond
back
together.
We're
only
made
deeper
and
greater
with
the
mayor
self-serving
words,
and
we
wonder
why
there
is
a
gap
between
the
fire
Administration
and
the
men
and
women
that
worked
in
the
stations.
Q
Q
A
yes
or
no
question
directly
asked
to
the
city
very
easy,
yes
or
no.
The
same
question
that
I
have
asked
myself
not
a
trick:
question
yes
or
no.
It
was
refused
an
answer.
Commissioner.
Becker
pressed
for
an
answer
and
the
mayor
sat
quietly.
He
finally
deflected
the
question
to
the
City
attorney
and
the
City
attorney
deflected
to
the
fire
chief
after
that
Keystone
cop
routine.
Q
He
criticized
both
of
these
fine
firefighters,
but
if
that
was
not
enough,
he
took
an
uncalled
for
opportunity
to
call
out
previous
Fire
Chiefs
from
three
years
ago
and
a
district
chief
and
then
asked
why
they
had
not
taken
the
trailer
out
of
service.
More
deflection.
More
shifting
of
responsibility
and
accountability,
no
employee
is
safe
in
Apopka,
nor
past
employees
and,
let's
not
forget
of
all
the
past
Fire
Chiefs,
all
16
of
them,
none
of
them.
None
of
them
have
lost
a
firefighter
in
the
line
of
duty.
Q
Q
How
many
other
employees
were
the
city
failed
minimize,
criticize
how
many
other
employees
are
we
not
trying
to
keep
safe
by
removing
the
evolvement
of
her
very
own
Safety
Committee?
How
can
we
trust
that
the
city
will
protect
their
firefighters
and
their
citizens?
Actions
speak
much
louder
than
words
and
we
are
eating
our
own.
Q
Q
Q
R
I
share
the
same
sentiment
as
when,
after
the
last
meeting,
I
did
and
ask
the
question
around.
Was
there
explicit
instruction
to
stop
that
Safety
Committee
the
First
Response?
Well,
it
was
the
answer
was
in
the
affirmative,
but
when
I
asked,
if
there
was
written
instruction
as
our
minutes
that
we
just
passed
reflect,
it
was
a
first
and
no
answer
when
pressed
further,
it
turned
into
a
yes
answer:
I
made
a
public
records
request
on
December
22nd
the
day
after
the
meeting
and
I
finally
got
that
records
request,
satisfied.
R
As
of
yesterday,
a
paper
copy
written
date
stamp
received
January
3rd
from
the
clerk's
office.
I'll,
just
read
it
real,
quick
and
I'll.
Read
it
with
the
grammatical
errors
that
are
included
in
it.
So
I
just
want
to
read
it
word
for
word
good
afternoon:
understanding
the
need
for
an
urgent
and
independent
review
of
Austin
Duran's
lodd
line
of
duty
death
and
in
accordance
with
SOG
6200.03.00
I,
have
created
and
have
been
working
with,
and
ad
hoc
review
board.
R
That
will
be
solely
responsible
for
this
investigation
due
to
the
sensitivity
and
the
need
to
conduct
a
thorough
investigation.
The
review
board
consists
of
subject
matter
experts
and
includes
the
National
Institute
of
occupational
safety
and
health,
as
we've
consistently
referred
to
as
niosh
Gannon
emergency
services
and
legal
representation.
R
When
I
pressed
the
question
last
meeting,
I,
don't
know
that
we
were
referred
to
an
ad
hoc
committee
separate
from
the
Safety
Committee.
So
my
question
today
is:
when
are
we
going
to
get
a
formal
report
of
findings
from
our
own
internal
Safety
Committee,
which
was
my
desire
last
meeting,
this
ad
hoc
committee
from
niosh
from
Gannon
from
legal
representation?
R
R
I
want
a
date
when,
when
should
we
expect,
or
else
we're
going
to
sit
in
these
Chambers
and
hear
from
a
grieved,
family
and
Union
represent
Representatives
people
that
rely
on
the
leadership
in
the
city
to
make
sure
that
they're
safe
in
their
working
conditions.
So
when
should
we
expect
that
and
I'm
looking
at
Chief?
What,
like
the
only
there's
one
person
in
the
room
that
I
would
expect
that
answer
from.
S
Sean
Weiland
fire
chief
Steve
Apopka.
To
answer
your
questions,
the
ad
hoc
committee
is
something
that
is
a
it's
a
Advisory
Group
that
is
in
our
srgs
that
we're
allowed
to
create
in
order
to
get
some
of
the
answers.
I.
Think
again,
the
biggest
thing
I
want
to
separate
out
is
the
difference
between
an
investigation
and
post-incident
critique
answers
for
the
investigation
are
Income.
We've
had
one
answer
already
with
the
State
Fire
Marshals
report
and
I
came
out.
S
There's
there's
again
all
this
coming
together
as
a
conglomerate
to
kind
of
give
us
a
recommendations,
moving
forward
everything
that
we've
learned
thus
far
we're
making
changes.
We
are
making
a
lot
of
positive
changes.
So
there's
it's
hard
to
know
the
exact
timeline
with
things
like
niosh,
because
again
it
takes
time
again.
My.
R
S
Because
I
understand
I,
we
are
all
hurting
I,
think
that's
the
biggest
thing
that
I
get
how
emotional
this
is
for
everybody
involved
the
Duran
family
to
all
of
our
firefighters.
To
me
personally,
it
is
emotionally
taxing
and
I
am
trying
to
balance
everything
with
getting
us
the
right
answers
and
getting
us
to
move
forward
in
the
right
way
in
the
right
direction.
S
But
these
things
take
time.
I
don't
want
to
just
check
a
box.
I,
don't
want
to
come
up
here
and
fill
you
with
whatever
a
formal
investigation
has
taken
place
first
with
the
State
Fire
Marshal.
Second,
with
niosh
who's,
a
subject
matter
expert
who's
going
to
tackle
that
and
thirdly,
Gannon
is
taking
a
holistic
approach.
Look
at
our
city
in
our
fire
department,
Everything
But.
R
R
S
Conduct
a
post-incident
critique
environment-
don't
normally
firemen
do
not
investigate
if
we
respond
to
something
the
post-incident
critique
is
going
to
look
at
how
we
responded
to
this
scene
to
the
incident
itself,
so
as
time
starts
when,
as
soon
as
the
tones
go
off
to
kind
of
answer,
that
I
am
also
trying
to
balance
the
emotional
side
of
things.
We've
all
read
the
letter
that
came
out
yesterday.
S
People
are
torn
into
I,
have
half
the
department
who
wants
this
to
happen?
Half
the
apartment
doesn't
want
it
to
happen.
I
am
trying
to
do
everything
we
can
and
balance
everything
to
get
us.
The
right
answers
to
move
us
forward
in
the
right
direction,
and,
quite
frankly,
I'm
tired
of
being
torn
apart.
S
S
We
have
to
come
together
and
work
together
with
this
and
getting
these
things
done
and
getting
some
answers.
We're
working
side
by
side
with
some
of
these
recommendations
to
give
you
the
right
answer.
Six
to
eight
months
is
niosh
all
the
other
I
I
promise
you
we're
going
to
make
several
presentations
on
a
lot
of
the
findings.
R
For
you
guys
to
hear
that
the
the
timing,
the
timing
of
these
things
I
mean
the
Optics-
are
terrible.
I
mean
you
wait
several
months
to
stand
down
the
Safety
Committee
that
we're
doing
that
investigation,
post-insert
critique,
I,
don't
know
the
terminology
to
use,
but
several
months
and
it
was
under
the
advisement
under
your
interpretation
I'm.
R
Not
the
attorney
saying
it
explicitly,
but
under
your
interpretation
that
it
was
not
in
good
keeping
to
make
sure
that
we,
you
know,
save
ourselves
from
litigation
and
so
that
that
was
what
the
Genesis
of
the
conversation
was
and
so
again,
why
are
we
not
letting
our
own
people
investigate
our
own
policies
and
procedures?
Yeah
you
mouth
off
the
The
Fire
Marshals,
niosh,
Gannon,
okay,
but
your
own
department
is
saying
that
they
want
to
investigate.
Not
all
of
them,
not.
S
R
R
R
I,
just
don't
have
any
sense
of
okay,
ganon's
gonna,
be
one
to
two
months.
Is
gonna
be
six
to
eight
months.
History
is
a
guide
we're
going
to
get
to
these
places,
and
it's
going
to
be.
Oh,
it's
another
couple
more
weeks
we're
not
providing
any
sort
of
relief
to
anybody.
We're
going
to
hear
the
same
commentary.
Every
single
city
council,
meeting.
S
H
R
J
T
T
T
T
I
made
this
statement
many
times
before.
There
are
too
many
good
people
standing
by
watching
bad
things
happen
and
not
saying
anything
just
being
Silent,
not
speaking
out
into
the
Duran
family.
I
want
to
apologize
for
my
role
in
your
son's
death
and
here's
where
I'm
going
with
this
I
am
tired
of
being
a
coward.
T
T
Just
turned
a
blind
ear
to
what's
going
on
in
the
city
and
I
say
we
had
35
000
registered
voters
and
only
eight
of
them
turned
out
for
the
mirror
election.
Only
8
000
turned
out
for
the
mayor
election
out
of
35
000
registered
voters.
So
we
get
what.
T
One,
the
election
with
blood
over
what
4,
000
votes
and
I'm
being
generous
out
of
35
000
people.
So
we
get
what
we
deserve
and
that's
sad,
but
it's
the
hard
truth
and
I
hope
this
day
each
and
every
one
of
us
realize
we
have
a
Civic
debt
to
this
city
to
be
the
best
neighbor
and
to
stand
up
for
our
neighbors.
T
E
Three,
golden
gem
wrote
Apopka
back
to
uncontrolled
development
and
its
repercussions.
E
Golden
gem
just
happens
to
be
the
one
that
I'm
going
to
speak
about
today.
It's
a
representative
what's
happening
within
the
city
limits,
let's
use
golden
gem
Road
as
a
prime
example
of
why
the
city
is
feeling
the
community
take
one
development
where
construction
of
homes
has
begun:
Parkview
Preserve,
we
can
argue
over
numbers,
but
just
look
at
it.
Logically,
these
are
large
homes
and
have
two
and
four
children's
potentially
per
house
282
homes.
Let's
see
a
development
of
500
children,
no
public
transport,
no
sidewalks.
E
So
what
if
a
child
wants
to
visit
a
friend?
And
perhaps
they
could
cycle
except
golden
gem,
Road
stretches
from
pumpkin
to
Kelly
Park,
approximately
two
miles
long
double
yellow
lines
end
to
end
no
roads
leading
off
it
and
hardly
sufficient
room
for
two
cars
to
pass.
We
have
been
driven
off
the
road
on
three
occasions
during
the
last
year.
E
There
are
no
passing
places.
So
how
can
a
motor
vehicle
overtake
a
cyclist
or
even
a
pedestrian
without
potentially
breaking
the
law
if
the
vehicle
got
behind
a
cyclist
traveling
at
eight
miles?
An
hour
for
two
miles:
that's
potentially
15
minutes
they
could
be
forced
to
follow
them.
You're
welcome
to
argue
with
me,
but
you
cannot
dispute
simple
asthmatic,
and
neither
will
you
tell
me
that
human
nature
is
such
that
they
would
not
overtake
people
make
errors
of
judgment
golden
gem.
Road
is
full
of
dips
and
Rises.
There
are
numerous
places
where
blind
spots
exist.
E
Just
take
a
look
at
Jack.
Do
Martin's
memories
as
a
child.
Ask
Wilson
Hamrick
what
he
did
as
a
youngster
as
Dennis
knew
where
he
played
in
swam.
Why
do
you
think
we,
as
the
older
generation,
are
fighting
hard
to
protect
the
pop
and
from
uncontrolled
development?
We
believe
our
children,
grandchildren
and
great-grandchildren
deserve
the
opportunity
to
experience
fresh
air,
dark
mud,
Farm
life
and
Wildlife,
so
the
developers
wish
to
take
from
us.
We
are
not
interested
in
Greenback
dollar
bills.
We
prefer
a
green
environment
where
Rivers
valleys,
trees
and
fresh
water
Springs.
E
What
we
have
here
in
Apopka
and
by
Kiva
is
priceless.
Disney
Sea,
World
Universal
pale
into
insignificance
with
respect
to
our
natural
beauty.
In
essence,
golden
Jam
world
is
a
liability,
our
Miralax
integrity,
our
planning
department,
lacks
capability.
Our
City
attorney
lacks
credibility.
This
Administration
lacks
accountability.
E
E
R
And
just
because
I
know
that
commissioner
Moore
watches
these
hearings
and
I
brought
it
up
a
couple
meetings
ago,
I
met
with
Orange
County
staff
on
December
8th
to
talk
about
the
current
condition
of
golden
gem,
because
the
majority
of
golden
gem
is
a
County
Road.
R
They
were
going
to
be
doing
an
assessment
of
of
the
street
I
followed
up
twice
with
them
after
that
meeting
and
I've
not
heard
back
so
I'll
con
continue
to
be
persistent
on
that
front
in
terms
of
just
the
general
current
maintenance
of
that
road,
but
I
will
join
you
at
a
board
of
County
Commissioners
meeting
if
we
want
to
go
together
and
advocate
for
that,
because
you
know
long
term
and
I
had
this
conversation
with
Miss
Richmond
at
our
on
our
prep
meeting
yesterday.
R
But
to
your
point
long
term,
we
need
to
have
a
transportation
plan.
I've
been
promised
that
that's
been
that's
forthcoming,
so
that
we
can
do
these
things.
You
know,
in
all
fairness
to
our
attorney.
You
know
a
broad,
a
broad
development
moratorium
is
a
tall
task,
but
a
moratorium
in
terms
of
my
no
vote
is
not
as
tall
and
if
I
don't
have
assurances
that
we're
we're
set
up
for
Success
long
term,
then
certainly
committed
to
that.
V
Good
afternoon,
everyone,
my
name,
is
Tanya
De,
Jesus
I
live
in
the
Willow
Lake
Apartments
and
there's
a
traffic
issue
at
this
exit
at
this
exit
of
the
gate.
There's.
V
Two
Mains
that
go
towards
Apopka
and
the
other
one
goes
towards.
Wekiva
traffic
makes
u-turns
there
on
both
directions
and
we
have
tons
of
elderly
people,
children
and
such
going
across
that
section.
You.
V
Lake
Apartments,
and
so
children
and
elderly
adults
in
their
walkers,
as
well
across
that
section
of
the
height
of
the
road
where
there
is
no
crosswalk,
no
traffic
light,
no
flashing,
light.
Nothing
where
people
aware
that
they're
crossing
the
road
to
walk
to
the
crosswalk
that
is
available
to
the
residents
in
the
area.
They
have
to
walk
at
least
a
quarter
of
a
mile.
V
One
way:
a
quarter
of
a
mile
back
up
the
way
to
go
to
the
shopping
center
across
the
street,
which
has
everything
from
Marshall
to
dentist
office,
to
I,
location,
grocery
stores
and
everything
is
very
accessible
to
the
Willow
Lake
Community,
but
not
in
a
very
accessible
way.
V
So
I
just
would
like
to
have
you
as
someone
Engineers
or
somebody
look
at
that
location
and
see
if
anything
can
be
done.
There's
been
several
accidents
there
with
cars,
but
there's
a
lot
of
children
and
people
walk,
walk
across
there.
A
V
A
M
Today,
Alex
pepper.
W
Good
afternoon
my
name
is
Alex
klepper
I'm,
representing
the
Apopka
professional
firefighters
this
afternoon,
come
together.
We've
just
said,
I'm
going
to
say
that
before
I
read
this
speech
so
recently,
two
of
our
members,
one
of
them
who
happens
to
be
myself,
resigned
from
a
voluntary
committee
due
to
what
they
perceive
to
be
disingenuous
leadership
in
intentional
misdirection.
In
the
wake
of
these
resignations,
instead
of
the
fire
chiefs
or
mayor
following
up
with
these
employees,
the
decision
was
made
to
call
a
press
conference
to
disparage
both
these
firefighters.
W
Cherry
pick,
four
to
five
words
from
letters
to
make
them
look
foolish
or
as
if
they
did
not
care
and
then
take
credit
for
changes
forced
upon
this
Administration.
Here's,
the
unsettling
part
mayor
in
a
certain
sense,
I
feel
bad
for
you.
As
you
stated,
you
are
given
a
script
to
read
to
the
Press,
with
the
aim
of
publicly
embarrassing
our
firefighters
written
by
our
own
fire
chiefs,
which
is
just
so
wrong
and
sad,
but
you're
taking
the
Heat.
W
You
kept
referring
to
the
fact
that
there
were
claims
that
nothing
had
been
done
and
directing
the
attention
towards
18
out
of
23
items
that
were
alleged
completed,
which
is
categorically
false.
The
two
resigned
employees
are
well
aware
of
the
status
of
these
processes,
but
what
was
actually
asserted
in
that
resignation
letter
is
that
we
have
made
recommendations
that
members
of
the
committee
or
the
fire
chief
know
about,
but
no
other
member
of
this
fire
department
is
aware
of
that.
Information
is
in
the
packet.
I
gave
you
here's
an
example.
W
Every
summer
we
hold
a
fire
camp
at
the
end
of
that
week
for
every
age
group
we
send
unrestrained
or
improperly
restrained
children
up
in
a
tower
truck
bucket
stories
into
the
air
for
a
Facebook
photograph.
We
have
had
a
catastrophic
failure
over
Tower
ladder
five
to
six
years
ago.
That's
how
we
have
the
new
one,
it
can
happen
again
and
our
city
will
be
sued
into
the
Stone
Age,
where
sovereign
immunity
does
not
apply.
It
Was
Written
in
your
press
release
that
this
practice
has
been
discontinued.
W
Yet
the
department
has
not
had
one
single
communication
to
let
anyone
know.
I
have
asked
multiple
members
that
operate
the
tower
truck
and
work
the
kids
camp.
If
they
are
aware
in
only
one
of
them
was
aware.
That
is
what
upset
us
and
that's
what
killed.
Austin
Duran
people
knew
that
sand
trailer
was
dangerous.
People
knew
it
should
not
be
used
and
nothing
was
ever
officially
communicated
or
done
to
eliminate
the
threat
and
again,
we've
been
failed.
But
let's
get
to
the
heart
of
why
both
members
resigned
because
it
wasn't
addressed.
W
W
Driving
a
trailer
through
a
thousand
cones
and
putting
Austin's
names
on
thing
does
not
fix
the
root
problem.
The
plan
was
to
put
this
together
with
all
other
findings
and
give
this
to
every
single
new
firefighter
that
ever
crosses
our
threshold
for
them
to
read.
Learn
from
so
we
never
end
up
here
again.
The
plan
received
a
unanimous
vote.
W
W
W
We're
sick
and
tired
of
being
accused
of
blindsiding
people?
Hearing
both
sides
need
to
improve
communication.
No
lack
of
communication
is
when
two
members
resigned
from
a
Safety
Committee
with
serious
concerns
and
instead
of
meeting
with
them
to
rectify
that
situation.
Our
chief
goes
searching
for
Replacements
calls
a
press
conference
to
disparage
them
and
then
refuses
to
comment.
It's
unbelievable.
We
have
the
audacity
to
speak
about
culture
change
in
this
department.
If
past
behavior
is
the
best
predictor
of
future
performance
answer
me,
how
can
we
expect
anyone
else
to
speak
up?
W
If
this
is
how
you're
treated
members
of
this
department
bring
their
concerns
to
either
us
or
Mike
Duran
this
week,
Mike,
not
our
Chiefs
or
Administration,
received
an
anonymous
letter
asking
for
help
expressing
personal
concerns
about
lacking
Mental,
Health
Resources
for
department
members
and
even
concerns
about
the
investigation.
What
does
that
say
to
you?
Why
is
why
is
that
the
outlet
that
they
feel
they
need
to
take?
You
know
you,
you
said
we
left
the
Safety
Committee
rather
than
commit
to
furthering
positive
change
in
this
department.
W
A
W
In
Anonymous
letter
said
it
was
one
person
sent
an
anonymous
letter
to
Mr
Duran
and
that's
what
was
just
being
cited
as
half
of
the
department
not
wanting
to
do
an
investigation.
If
there's
a
question,
then,
let's
just
do
a
vote
right,
maybe
I'm,
maybe
we're
nuts.
Maybe
everybody
in
this
room
is
out
of
control.
I,
don't
think
that
one
Anonymous
letter
constitutes
half
of
the
fire
department.
A
Here
we
go
go
back
to
the
presentation
best
foot
forward
with
Emily
Hannah
to
move
forward.
K
Down
sorry
about
that
earlier,
a
couple
things
that
I
had
sent
to
him.
So
my
name
is
Emily
Hannah
I
am
the
executive
director
of
bike,
walk
Central
Florida.
We
are
a
non-profit
advocacy
organization
in
the
three
County
region
that
advocates
for
pedestrian
safety,
bicycle
safety
and
education,
along
with
Trail
development
and
design,
and
today
I'm
here
to
talk
to
you
and
give
you
a
summary
of
your
pedestrian
safety
program.
Best
foot
forward
so
best
foot
forward
is
a
region-wide
pedestrian
safety
program
that
focuses
on.
K
We
call
a
6E
approach,
but
we're
really
going
to
focus
on
the
four
e's
today
and
that
is
engineering
at
crosswalks,
making
sure
that
they
stand
out
in
place.
We
also
do
education
at
our
crosswalks
and
throughout
the
region,
in
the
specific
to
the
city
of
Apopka,
to
ensure
that
we're
educating
residents
on
the
driver
yield
law
and
how
to
be
safe,
pedestrian,
cyclists
and
drivers
in
the
community
and
in
the
region,
and
then,
lastly,
we
conduct
Regional
enforcement
operations
throughout
the
year
with
other
count.
K
The
police
departments
throughout
the
region
and
I've
got
some
numbers
of
what
we've
worked
on
this
past
year.
So
I'm
presenting
to
you
today
last
fiscal
year,
so
this
will
be
October
of
2021
through
September
of
last
year.
So
the
enforcements
we
conducted
two
of
those
high
visibility
enforcement
operations.
We
bring
the
media
out
the
elected
officials,
you
guys
come
out
and
join
us
at
these
enforcement
operations,
and
we
do
these
at
crosswalks
that
we
monitor
for
evaluation.
Over
the
time
we've
held
two
details
to
date
and
have
issued
15
mornings
and
citations.
K
What
I
like
to
say
about
the
warnings
and
citations?
Is
it's
not
so
much
that
we're
giving
out
these
citations
to?
You
know
tell
drivers
that
they're
failing
at
following
the
law,
it's
more
about
education,
so
with
every
citation
or
warning
or
every
type
of
interaction
that
we
have
with
a
motorist
during
our
enforcement
operations.
K
We
give
them
educational
material
so
that
they
know
why
they're
being
pulled
over
and
hopefully
they
won't
make
that
same
mistake
again,
because
God
forbid
that
they
actually
fatally
strike
someone
while
driving
and
that
that's
what
we
want
to
try
to
prevent.
We've
completed
10
events
and
presentations
reached
2,
200
people
and
I
handed
out
3
800,
almost
3
900
different
materials
and
I'll
explain
a
little
bit
more
detail
for
that
later
and
then
for
our
engineering
and
evaluation.
K
We
monitored
five
crosswalks
within
the
city
of
Apopka
this
year
did
a
total
of
30
data
collections,
which
I'll
talk
about
in
more
detail,
and
we
supported
a
couple
different
projects.
Additionally
in
the
city
of
Apopka,
which
I
will
talk
about
as
well,
but
some
big
program
highlights
so
the
best
foot
forward
programs
actually
started
in
2012
in
Orange,
County
city
of
Orlando
and
the
City
of
Winter
Park,
with
a
grant
from
Orlando
Health
and
the
Winter
Park
Health
foundation,
and
so
in
April
of
2022.
K
We
celebrated
10
years
of
being
a
pedestrian
safety
program
in
the
region,
and
in
doing
so
we
wanted
to
bring
everybody
together
to
talk
about
pedestrian
safety
and
the
10
years
that
we've
worked
together
in
the
region.
We
brought
down
a
national
recognized
speaker
that
actually
developed
the
program
12
years
years
ago.
K
Before
we
launched
it,
I
mean
had
him
speak
to
what
he,
the
research
that
he's
done,
he's
from
the
University
of
Minnesota
and
the
work
that
he's
done
with
the
various
Transportation
departments
throughout
the
United
States,
bringing
back
some
of
that
expertise
to
make
us
improve
the
best
foot
forward
program
in
the
future
years.
And
so
we
had
this
inaugural
best
foot
forward.
Summit.
K
We
brought
everybody
together,
so
the
city
of
Apopka
joined
with
everybody
from
the
city
of
Kissimmee,
Saint,
Cloud
City
of
Orlando,
to
talk
about
what
everyone's
doing
to
help
prevent
and
enhance
our
pedestrian
and
bicycle
infrastructure.
K
So
these
are
the
crosswalks
that
we
monitored
last
year
in
the
program
we
have
identified
the
crosswalks
for
this
year's
program.
They
are
they're
changed,
and
so
we
will
give
you
that
information
in
your
first
progress
report,
which
will
be
due
at
the
end
of
this
month
for
this
year's
program.
But
these
are
the
five
that
we
monitored,
and
this
was
really
the
first
year
that
we
worked
with
the
city
of
Apopka
fully
with
the
best
foot
forward
program.
So
this
year
was
really
about
understanding.
K
The
city
of
apopka's
needs
what,
where
was
development
occurring?
Where
were
some
traffic
fatalities,
serious
injuries
occurring?
What
types
of
interactions
and
conflicts
were
happening,
and
so
these
were
kind
of
where
we
started,
but
we
know
and
I'll
go
into
detail
that
this
is
not
where
we're
ending
right.
K
All
crosswalks
every
Road
in
the
city
of
Apopka
deserves
the
attention
that
we're
giving
from
an
education,
engineering,
evaluation
and
an
enforcement
standpoint,
but
we
know
that
the
work
we
do
spreads
throughout
the
community,
and
so
we
know
that
if
we
focus
on
certain
areas,
we
will
hopefully
improve
the
driver
Behavior
throughout
the
city
and
hopefully
throughout
the
region,
because
we
me
know
there
are
people
that
drive
through
the
city
of
Apopka,
just
like
every
other
city.
K
So
we
want
to
make
sure
they're
abiding
by
all
the
laws
of
the
State
of
Florida
and
so
engineering,
so
I
kind
of
started
with
we're
getting
to
know
the
city
of
Apopka
this
year
really
identifying
what
some
of
those
issues
are,
and
one
of
the
big
issues,
as
we
know,
is
your
main
street
U.S
441
we've
had
several
fatalities
and
serious
injuries
along
that
roadway.
K
Unfortunately,
one
recently,
and
so
we
really
wanted
to
bring
fdot
to
the
table,
talk
with
the
city
staff
and
the
local
police,
the
pocket
Police
Department
as
to
what
are
some
of
the
concerns
bless.
You
concerns
there
and
how
can
we?
How
can
we
fix
those
now
I
will
say,
modifying
a
state
road
as
as
big
and
as
dense
as
U.S
441
is
is
quite
a
task,
but
it's
a
task
that
we
are
all
undertaking
and
I
I'm
excited
to
share
some
of
those
updates
with
you
later
on
in
the
presentation.
K
But
during
this
site
visit
we
walked
with
the
mayor
along
U.S
441
and
crossed
at
McGee,
because
that
is
where
you
have
some
future
development
going
in.
So
we
want
wanted
to
look
at
that
intersection
ahead
of
when
that
development
was
going
to
take
place
to
really
see
what
the
needs
were.
There
bless
you,
and
so
during
that
time
and
mayor
you
can
speak
to
this.
We
were
almost
struck
by
a
car
crossing
the
crosswalk
along
U.S
441
at
McGee.
K
A
driver
did
not
want
to
wait
at
the
right
hand
turning
movement,
so
he
went
around
the
right
hand,
turning
driver
in
between
the
bike
lanes
and
the
excess
space
that
we
have
in
some
of
those
Lanes
on
the
right
hand,
side
and
almost
struck
our
data
collector.
Luckily
he
does
this
for
a
living,
so
he
knew
to
look
out
and
avoided
the
car,
and
luckily
the
Apopka
Police
Department
got
his
license
plate
and
he
was
warned
that
he
should
not
do
that
in
the
city
of
Apopka.
K
So
just
an
example
as
to
why
education
and
the
engineering
and
evaluation
that
we
do
is
really
critical.
So
we
started
there
in
January
and
I'll.
Give
you
some
updates
on
what
we're
doing
with
us-441
since
then,
because
that's
not
really
a
part
of
the
best
foot
forward
program.
Right
now
we
didn't
really
identify
any
crosswalks
there,
because
we
have
a
longer
Vision
in
place,
but
we
did
go
and
evaluate
those
crosswalks
that
were
that
we
were
monitoring.
We
looked
at
the
striping,
the
signage.
K
We
looked
at
the
context
and
what
I
mean
by
context
is
what's
around
that
crosswalk?
Why
would
people
cross
the
road
where's
their
origin
where's
their
destination
and
then,
where
are
they
going
back
to?
And
we
want
to
identify
that
in
order
to
identify
what
striping,
what
signage,
what
additional
measures
that
we
need
to
install
to
make
sure
that
driver
sees
that
pedestrian
trying
to
cross
the
road?
So
here
we
are
at
Jason
dwelly,
going
to
the
beautiful
Regional
Park.
That's
there
tons
of
people
cross
that
crosswalk.
K
K
So
our
operations
that
we
hold,
we
do
four
time.
We
do
four
large
enforcements
every
year.
We
do
these
across
the
region.
So
we
ask
our
local
law
enforcement
Partners.
Do
you
have
the
availability
to
participate?
Where
would
you
like
to
enforce
your
crosswalks,
and
we
do
this
through
13
different
law
enforcement
agencies,
usually
within
a
two-day
period?
So
it's
quite
quite
a
big
operation
to
undertake,
but
the
city
of
Apopka
has
been,
and
the
Apopka
police
department
has
been
absolutely
fantastic
to
work
with.
K
I
cannot
say
enough
great
things
about
your
police
department
and
I
work
with
many
of
them
and
I
could
say
you
know
good
and
bad
about
all,
but
they
have
been
fantastic.
Sergeant
Harmon
has
been
wonderful
to
work
with
and
has
been
passionate
about
really
making
improvements
in
the
engineering,
the
evaluation
and
the
education.
K
As
well
so
much
so
that
the
City
of
Winter
Park
was
a
little
hesitant
about
doing
enforcement
operations
in
their
city,
so
they
came
to
watch
the
city
of
Apopka
in
their
enforcement
operation
this
past
year
and
the
City
of
Winter
Park
has
joined
the
program
because
of
that
fantastic
work
from
the
popca
police
department,
so
kudos
to
them.
I'm,
really
looking
forward
to
the
enforcement
operations
that
we're
going
to
have
throughout
the
rest
of
this
year.
We
do
theme,
those
enforcement,
a
value
are
the
operations.
K
Every
year
this
one
coming
up
in
November,
I'm,
sorry
in
February,
is
going
to
be
crosswalk
appreciation
day.
We're
kind
of
calling
out
that
a
lot
of
drivers
fail
to
yield
to
crossing
guards
near
schools.
We
actually
have
data
that
represents
that
we
have
drivers
that
are
least
likely
to
yield
in
a
quarter
mile
of
a
school
versus
a
half
a
mile
away
from
a
school
because
they're
expecting
to
have
those
crossing
guards
there,
but
those
crossing
guards
put
their
life
into
their
hands
to
stop
traffic
so
that
these
kids
can
get
to
school.
K
K
We
also
theme
them
for
our
media,
so
we
can
get
a
lot
of
the
media
Outlets
out
and
to
cover
the
operation
in
order
to
again
educate
our
residents
that
we've
got
to
stop
and
let
people
cross
the
road
we've
got
to
be
civil
to
our
community,
to
the
kids
and
the
seniors
that
are
trying
to
get
to
the
places
they
need
to
go
and
then
our
Outreach
efforts.
So
we
had
we
attended
10
different
events
and
presentations
throughout
the
year,
2200
interactions,
so
we
actually
count
how
many
times
we
talk
to
individual
people.
K
K
So
these
are
actual
interactions,
actual
talking
points
and
then
the
3
900
educational
materials
distributed
is
either
the
educational
material
we
hand
out
throughout
the
program
so
talking
about
the
driver,
yield
law
and
what
the
rules
are
on
the
road,
but
then
also
we'll
do
some
helmet
fittings
we'll
also
hand
out
some
safety
information
from
fdot,
and
we
have
lighted,
bracelets
and
other
cool
safety
things
that
we
hand
out
as
well.
K
So
hopefully,
you've
seen
us
at
one
of
the
events
this
past
year,
we've
also
been
out
this
year
as
well
and
hope
to
continue
as
we
do
more
events
and
presentations
this
fiscal
year.
So
this
year
our
the
program
has
already
kicked
off.
We
kicked
off
in
October
we're
going
to
hold
three
enforcements
within
the
city
of
Apopka,
we've
already
held
one
that
was
in
November,
and
that
was
at
Jason
dwelley.
It
was
a
great
enforcement.
K
We've
got
five
crosswalks
that
we're
going
to
monitor
in
the
program,
among
others,
which
I'll
talk
about
in
a
minute
and
we're
going
to
do
eight
events
and
presentations
to
the
community
a
little
bit
less
than
what
we
did
last
year.
But
we
really
feel
like
if
we
target
specific
audiences,
we
have
a
better
interaction,
a
better
opportunity
to
change
kind
of
behavior
and
educate
on
that
driver
yield
law.
But
there
are
some
additional
things
that
bike
walk:
Central
Florida
the
nonprofit
is
doing
so.
K
We
were
really
lucky
to
work
with
Dr
Phillips
in
their
new
packing
District
project
and
look
at
creating
a
network
of
internal
and
external
trails
that
eventually
connect
the
packing
District
to
the
coast,
to
coast
trail
to
the
downtown
connector
Loop
to
the
hospital
to
create
a
village
and
so
on,
and
with
that
success
we
and
I,
you
know,
I've
being
in
the
city
and
loving
the
city
of
apopkin
working
with
you
guys,
I
thought.
You
know
we
really
need
to
do
this
here.
There's
a
lot
of
development.
K
There's
a
lot
of
opportunity,
you're
extending
the
West
Orange
Trail.
So
what
why
can't
we
come
in
and
look
at
where
all
the
active
Transportation
Network
could
be
and
where
we
can
start
building
that
Transportation
Network,
so
that
we're
not
relying
on
vehicles
to
get
to
places
that
we
want
to
go?
We
can
get
out
and
walk,
we
can
get
out
and
bike
or
roll
scooters
strollers
whatnot
to
where
we
want
to
be.
There's
lots
of
Statistics
anywhere
from
70
to
90
percent
of
our
trips
are
within
one
to
three
miles
of
our
home.
K
That's
an
easy
walk
bike
or
roll
distance.
So
let's
build
that
supportive
infrastructure
so
that
we
can
get
people
there
safely
and
efficiently
and
so
I
kind
of
skipped
over
the
U.S
441
visioning
study.
But
that
is
essentially
what
I've
described
as
the
active
Transportation
network
analysis.
K
So
we're
going
to
work
with
Pam
in
the
city
of
Apopka
you
all
and
your
community
as
to
where
they
want
to
walk
where
they
want
to
bike
and
where
they
want
to
roll
we're,
not
just
going
to
come
in
and
look
at
your
street
Network
and
say:
oh
you're,
missing
sidewalk.
Here
you
need
to
put
it
there.
No,
we
want
to
ask
the
community:
where
do
you
want
to
go?
Do
you
want
to
use
the
trail?
K
Where
do
you
need
to
connect
to
the
trail,
find
those
connections
and
then
not
only
just
identify
those
connections,
but
where
else
can
we
add
supportive
amenities
to
encourage
people
to
get
out
of
their
vehicles
and
use
that
active,
Transportation
Network
that
you
guys
are
putting
together,
and
so
that
includes
things
like
shading?
Where
are
the
street
trees
going
to
go?
How
big
are
they?
Where
should
they
be
located?
K
We're
going
to
do
that
as
well,
we're
going
to
identify
opportunities
for
trail
trailheads
within
the
city
of
Apopka,
again,
where
is
there
an
opportunity
for
you
to
park
your
car,
if
you're
too
far
away
with
your
bike
or
with
your
family
and
get
out
and
have
access
to
the
great
trail
system
and
the
parks
and
other
wide
sidewalks
within
the
city
of
Apopka?
So
that's
really.
Our
active
Transportation
network
analysis
we're
going
to
do
that
throughout
this
year.
So
I'm
really
excited
to
kick
that
work
off
with
you.
K
K
So
you'll
hear
a
lot
more
about
this,
but
really
excited
to
take
this
work
on
because
of
the
the
growth
that
you've
had
in
your
city
in
the
last
several
years
really
need
to
look
at
where
we
want
to
incentivize
and
further
accentuate
those
active
Transportation
networks
and
then,
lastly,
so
as
a
I'm,
a
graduate
from
the
UCF
masters
of
urban
and
Regional
planning
program
and
when
I
was
at
the
city
of
Casselberry
I
had
the
the
opportunity
to
bring
their
Capstone
class
in
to
do
a
project
for
the
city.
K
They
created
a
health
element
into
the
city's
comprehensive
plan
now
the
city
and
anything
that
they
do
has
kind
of
a
health
overall
element
to
it.
So
it
has
to
tie
into
the
health
of
the
community.
But
UCF
actually
approached
me
recently
and
said
we
we
need
a
project
Emily.
Do
you
have
any
suggestions?
You
gave
us
a
couple
other
great
ones.
What
do
you
have
and
I
said?
Oh
I
have
the
perfect
project.
We
really
want
to
do
something
along
U.S,
441.
There's
a
great
need
out
here.
K
The
roadway
context
how
the
road
is
built
is
not
a
main
street
for
the
city
of
Apopka.
Absolutely
not.
It
is
built
to
move
cars
and
move
them
fast
and
not
for
people
to
stay
and
linger
and
shop
and
enjoy
the
downtown
of
Apopka.
It's
not
really
much
of
a
downtown,
and
so
we
asked
the
UCF
Capstone
class
to
make
that
their
project
and
they
agreed-
and
so
this
last
semester,
so
they
started
in
August
and
they
wrapped
up
in
December
they'll
kick
off
again
next
week
and
we'll
wrap
up
end
of
April.
K
So
fdot
has
been
at
the
table
since
August
and
they
have
heard
the
presentations
from
the
students
of
the
existing
conditions
and
the
study
of
research
that
they've
done
thus
far
and
will
continue
to
be
a
part
of
this
project,
because
we
can't
make
changes
to
US
441
without
fdot
Florida
Department
of
Transportation
it's
their
roadway
and
we
need
to
bring
them
to
the
table
so
that
they
see
the
importance
of
fixing
that
roadway
sooner
rather
than
later,
because
we
don't
need
another
fatality
or
a
serious
injury
on
that
roadway.
We're
tired
of
that.
K
The
city
of
Apopka
deserves
better
than
that
and
we
want
fdot
to
come
to
the
table
and
do
better
than
that
and
they
are
in
other
communities.
So
why
not
here
in
a
pop-
and
so
that's
been
kind
of
my
advocacy-
that
I've
been
working
on-
is
to
make
sure
that
they
are
coming
to
the
table,
that
they
are
paying
attention
and
listening
to
what
we
are
putting
together
as
a
vision
for
US
441.
K
So
that
is
my
presentation
today
of
all
the
work
that
bike
lock
and
the
best
foot
forward
program
will
be
doing
in
your
city
and,
as
always,
we
appreciate
being
a
part
of
all
the
work
that
you
guys
do.
You're
doing
a
fantastic
job.
I
say
this.
You
know,
but
I
do
work
with
other
communities
that
aren't
doing
what
you're
doing,
and
that
is
putting
your
best
foot
forward.
So
thank
you.
X
Just
just
want
to
say,
obviously,
I've
attended
every
meeting
since
I've
been
elected.
What
you
guys
have
done,
and
I
I
love
the
program
being
someone
that
often
runs
or
is
on
the
sidewalks
I
understand
the
safety
aspect
of
it
and
how
close
I've
been
hit
multiple
times
so
definitely
appreciate
your
program
and
and
I
know
that
we
in
Apopka
have
had
a
lot
of
fatalities
recently
in
injuries
just
driving.
X
Here
today,
right
next
to
Caitlin,
Nelson
Park,
there's
I
saw
there
was
a
bike
under
a
car,
so
it's
just
it's
needed
and
so
I'm
excited
to
help
support
you
throughout
this
process.
Thank
you.
B
D
Well,
you
actually
heard
from
one
of
the
residents
here
who
said
that
and
and
she's
right.
D
That's
the
the
residential,
develop
Housing
Development
right
next
to
the
bowling
alley
and
I
can't
imagine
I
see
it
all
the
time
where
they're
just
kind
of
running
across
you
know
what
are
they
four
lanes
and
you
know
I'm
just
thankful
that
there's
a
medium
in
between
that
they
can
kind
of
rest
on
when
they
can't
beat
the
traffic,
but
we
have
I
saw
the
the
crosswalks
that
you
were
working
on,
but
there's
a
couple
of
cross
works
that
cross
walks.
That
I
feel
that
really
need
some
attention.
D
Is
the
one
on
Welch
and
where
Walgreens
and
we're
having
that
new
development?
What
is
it
Circle,
K
Publix
and
the
bank,
and
you
know
that
four
corners
I
mean
when
I
shop
at
Publix
and
sometimes
I
need
to
go
to
Walgreens
I
would
love
to
walk
across
to
Walgreens,
but
I
literally
get
back
in
my
car
to
drive
that
little
short
distance
just
so
I
can
get
there
safely.
So
that's
a
cross
book
that
I
feel
that
needs
a
lot
of
attention.
We.
K
D
Well,
you
know
I
I,
hope
this
program
continues.
I
do
support
it.
We
do
have
if
you
drive
from
here
all
the
way
up
to
Pumpkin.
We
have
all
these
schools
along
the
way
and
it's
very
important,
because
we
want
to
encourage
the
students
to
write
to
their
schools,
to
walk
to
schools
and,
if
you've
been
here
at
three
o'clock,
and
you
see
when
they
all
exit
out
of
these
schools-
and
it's
it's-
you
know
it's
a
big
concern.
H
D
You
said
we
have
to
start
somewhere
and
I
appreciate
it.
I
appreciate
that
you
have
chosen
apoca
to
try
and
address
this.
This
I'm
just
going
to
say
a
problem,
but
I
realized
that
we
need
the
attention
and
we
need
to
fix
some
of
the
world.
So
thank
you
absolutely
thank.
D
A
Yeah,
of
course,
all
right
next
up,
we've
got
five
consent
agenda
items.
Does
anybody
need
to
have
any
of
them
pulled?
If
not
look
for
motion
to
approve
so
I'm
kind
of
motion
by
commissioner
Nesta
second
segment,
commissioner
Becker,
all
those
in
favor
aye,
all
opposed
motion
carries
unanimously
next
up,
Lowe
family
Warehouse.
L
L
The
property
is
located
at
3838,
hogshead,
Road,
West
of
Hermann
Smith,
Road
and
south
of
hogshead
Road
in
east
of
Conrad.
The
aerial
shows
that
the
project
is
surrounded
by
industrial
centers,
the
low
family,
where
the
low
Family
Trust
warehouse
is
located,
just
east
of
Conrad
and
west
of
her
misbeth
Road.
That
major
development
plan
proposes
the
development
of
an
industrial
center
that
includes
the
proposal
to
construct
one
building
and
five
future
buildings.
L
The
applicant
proposes
a
warehouse
and
office
for
storage
and
distribution
used
in
so
it's
66,
000
square
feet
of
area
on
approximately
19
Acres
current
proposed
building
on
the
northwest
corner
of
the
property
will
support
online
retail
operations
of
plant-related
merchandise,
while
15
parking
spaces
are
required
for
this
building.
The
applicant
is
proposing
a
total
of
39
parking
spaces
with
two
accessible
spaces.
The
proposed
maximum
Building
height
is
35
feet.
The
future
the
development
of
future
buildings
will
undergo
a
separate
development
reviews.
L
The
DRC
recommends
approval
and
adds
meeting
on
December
13
2022
Planning
Commission
on
a
4-1
vote,
recommended
approval
of
the
low
Family
Trust
Warehouse
major
development
plan.
Subject
to
the
findings
in
the
staff
report,
the
recommended
motion
is
to
approve
the
major
development
plan.
Seven
applicants
are
available
for
questions.
L
L
Was
a
request
to
move
the
accessible
parking
spaces
a
little
closer
to
the
entrance?
Okay
and
I
think
that
is
something
that
the
applicant
is
going
to
explore
at
the
construction
site
plan,
but
in
terms
of
by
the
review
of
The,
Building,
Division
and
Engineering
I
think
it
meets
accessibility
requirements
at
this
time,
whatever
they're
proposing
on
their
plan
right
now,.
L
Right
now,
they're
operating
an
online
plant,
it's
a
retail!
Well,
it's
online
retail
sales
of
plant
materials.
X
And
so
they
are
moving
the
the
they're.
L
Exploring
it
they're
gonna,
look
at
the
slope
and
the
grade
of
I
think
they're
going
to
do
it
through
construction
site
plan.
Okay,.
F
X
H
A
B
A
Z
Z
So
when
we
got
the
final
cost,
we
negotiated
impact
fee
credits
in
the
amount
of
860
000
and
some
change
the
full
cost
of
of
the
intersection
Improvement,
which
is
installing
the
signal
and
installing
signals
at
the
railroad
crossing
and
turn
Lanes
is
in
excess
of
1.5
million
dollars,
and
we
have
offered
to
give
impact
fee
credits
in
the
amount
of
860
000.
This
is
a
Forward
Thinking
project.
It
might
not
appear
that
right
now.
Z
Z
X
X
A
Okay,
perfect.
Thank
you
any
other
questions.
Anybody
from
a
public.
We
should
speak
on
this
matter,
not
we'll
close.
The
public
hearing
look
for
a
motion
to
approve
the
First
Amendment
to
the
development
agreement
for
the
alternative
property.
So
it's
got
a
motion
by
commissioner
Nestor
segment.
Commissioner,
will
ask
us
all
those
in
favor.

Now
and
to
note
it's
not
30
days
from
the
date
of
the
violation,
it
would
be
30
days
from
receipt,
so
this
actually
is
consistent
and
almost
identical
to
the
state
statute
for
red
light
cameras
in
which
ER
there,
the
in
that
or
in
that
statute,
the
owner
of
the
vehicle
has
30
days
to
submit
the
affidavit.
So
the
timelines
are
the
same.
I
mean
that
I'm
just
giving
you
what
the
origins
of
the
30
days
is.
This
is
really
emulating
what
is
already
in
State
Statute
in
regards
to
notification.
AA
AA
Say
receipt
issuance
of
the
notice
not
received
if
the
date
of
the
note
is
well
I
mean?
If,
if
you
wanted,
we
could
change
it
to
receive,
but
it's
the
if
the
violation
is
issued
to
the
property
owner,
it's
going
to
be
issued
subsequent
to
inability
to
to
be
able
to
cite
or
to
serve
the
person
in
control
of
the
property,
so
the
issuance
can
come
in
at
a
later
date.
I
mean
we're
looking
at
it.
AA
At
that
point,
I
mean
we
can
ensure
that
that
the
these
notices
will
be.
Sir
I
think
we
do
have
I'll
double
check.
We
did
that
you
know
usually
our
notices
violations,
even
in
Code
Enforcement,
are
issued
through
certified
mail
return
receipt
requested,
so
we
do
have
a
copy
of
of
the
date
that
it
is
that
it
would
be
received
and
the
clock
would
would
start
at
that
point.
We.
AC
Would
know,
but
even
if
we
mail
a
uniform
traffic
citation
okay,
they
still,
they
only
have
30
days
from
the
date
of
citation
and
whether
this
would
come
in
foreign.
AC
Refuses
to
come
to
the
door
because
who's
having
a
party
and
wants
to
talk
to
the
cops.
They
know
that
they're
they're
loud
and
we
have
run
into
this
situation
recently,
where
they
don't
want
to
answer
the
door.
That's
fine!
We're
going
to
do
our
noise
measurements,
we're
going
to
fill
out.
Our
paperwork,
take
multiple
measurements
and
then
we're
going
to
issue
a
violation
and
we're
going
to
mail
it
in
accordance
with
a
statute
and
ordinance.
I.
X
I
mean
I
think
30
days
is
fine
as
long
as
we're
specifying
I
mean
what
everyone
agrees
with
a
receipt.
I
think
that's
very
key
because
to
what
the
point
that
was
made
is
is
if
I
have
multiple
rental
properties
and
it's
a
management
company,
or
it
goes
to
my
PO
Box
whatever
it
may
be,
there's
just
some
lag
time
there.
That
could
be
a
problem
and
not
provide
enough
time
there.
AC
AA
AC
Had
an
issue
with
with
date
of
receipt,
because
you
can't
most
people
won't
go
pick
up
certified
mail,
a
lot
of
people
won't
and
then
now
you
now
you
no
longer
can
prove
receipt
as
long
as
we
follow
State
Statute
in
like
when
we
post
notices
or
or
we
send,
we
make
our
we
do.
Our
due
diligence
in
notifying
then
I
think
that
it's
from
a
law
enforcement
standpoint
from
that
we
stick
with
the
date
of
issuance,
because
date
of
receipt
starts
to
get
into
and.
AA
Also
under
Florida
law
follow
Florida
follows
the
mailbox
rule.
So
once
the
item
has
been
put
in
the
mailbox
to
be
sent,
you're
deemed
that
it
has
been
delivered.
So
this
skirts
someone
who's,
saying
well,
I
I,
refuse
you
know
technically.
If
they
refuse
certified
mail
there
is,
then
it
put
into
question
whether
it
was
received
or
not,
as
opposed
to
the
the
notice.
Once
a
notice
is
put
in
the
mail
you
are
deemed
to
have
been
served
and
has
been
deemed
to
be
delivered
and
that's
the
law
in
the
state
of
Florida.
X
But
I
think
that's.
The
concerning
part,
too,
is
that
somebody,
that's
honest
and
wants
to
take
care
of.
It
is
now
being
taken
away
10
days
five
days
three
days
whatever
it
is
for
the
mailing,
and
maybe
it
goes
again
to
the
property
manager,
whatever
it
may
be,
and
then
property
managers
may
not
be
on
top
of
it
may
not
check
their
own
PO.
AA
AA
So
we
are
being
consistent
with
the
state
I
think.
If
you
want
to
extend
the
time
frame,
I
mean
I,
don't
have
a
problem
with
that,
but
we're
gonna
have
to
keep
it
at
date
of
issuance
and
not
45
days
from
date
of
receipt.
At
that
point,
it's
the
own.
It's
the
onus
of
the
property
owner.
The
property
owner
is
ultimately
ultimately
responsible
liable
for
the
actions
on
on
their
property
and
providing
a
providing
the
notice
giving
them
the
30
days.
AA
At
that
point,
the
city
has
met
its
procedural
due
process
to
the
property
owner.
What
the
property
owner
does
with
that.
That's
that
falls
on
that.
We
need
the
minimum
due
process
requirements,
providing
them
with
30
days
to
giving
them
this
Outlet
to
be
able
to
ensure
to
the
rest
of
the
residents
of
the
city
of
Apopka.
That
enforcement
action
is
being
taken
and
that
the
city
is
addressing
noise
concerns.
X
X
So
they're
not
checking
the
mail
regularly
things
like
that,
which
so
they're
not
going
to
know
when,
as
a
property
manager,
they
receive
a
notice
whether
it's
certified
or
not,
maybe
for
the
next
month
so
I
mean
it
depends
what
everyone
else,
I
I
do
agree.
This
could
become
a
very
big
issue.
I
understand
that
we're
meeting
what
we
need,
our
guidelines
and
I.
R
R
Know
what
the
volume
is
going
to
be,
what
the
load,
the
velocity
of
these
complaints
I,
have.
No
idea,
don't
have
the
crystal
ball,
but
just
know
that
if,
if
it
becomes,
if
those
types
of
landlords
come
to
us
after
the
fact
and
say
this
is
punitive
to
them
and
their
operations.
Obviously
we
would
come
back
and
seek
correct,
maybe
45.
X
N
O
N
AA
Here's
the
gray
area
with
this,
so
they
may
fall
under
that
the
what
is
kind
of
the
equivalent
of
that
it's
not
necessarily
A
noise,
the
consistent
noise
but
those
impactful
noises,
those
I
right
now,
I
can't
remember
the
term,
but
on
the
flip
side,
State
Legislature
last
year,
legalized,
fireworks
on
the
sale
and
use
of
fireworks
on
4th
of
July,
New,
Year's,
Eve
and
I
wish.
I
can
remember
what
the.
AA
Years
yeah
because
it
floats
through
the
days,
but
so
it's
going
to
fall
in
the
in
the
in
the
kind
of
that
gray
area,
plus
the
the
I
mean
in
theory.
If
it
reaches
that
impulsive
sound
similar
to
a
jackhammer
construction,
I
know
the
question
is
going
to
be
then,
and
that's
going
to
defer
to
the
chief
of
police.
Is
the
enforcement
you're
gonna
have
to
actually
try
to
track
down
where
those
fireworks
came
from
and
in
theory,
if
you
find
someone
who's
four
blocks
down,
the
road
is
issuing.
AA
AA
It's
it's
a
difficult
one,
that's
kind
of
a
gray
area
that
unfortunately
I
think
because
of
the
infernal
wisdom
of
our
state
legislature,
we're
kind
of
stuck
with
two
days
three
days
where
residents
are
going
to
have
to
tolerate
fireworks
when
they're
not
permissible
to
be
sold
or
lodged
on
other
days
of
the
year.
AA
Is
an
AG
exemption
for
the
use
of
fireworks
for
agricultural,
which
was
the
old
loophole
that
people
used
to
use
to
buy
illegal,
illegal,
illegal
fireworks
in
the
State
of
Florida
by
simply
filling
out
a
form
saying
I'm
using
these
for
agricultural
uses?
Even
though
you
live
in
a
large
city
in
the
middle
of
the
city,.
G
Hi,
my
first
time,
Brenda
Barfield
in
regards
to
the
noise
that
occurred
on
the
eve
of
the
night
December
31st
I've,
been
in
my
home
for
24
years
and
I
just
want
to
know
legally
what
is
the
Statue
of
decibels,
because
this
was
an
unusual
situation.
It
was
literally
like
a
war
zone
and
I
thought.
Maybe
they
were
doing
night
training
at
the
fire
station
out.
I
mean
the
place
the
shooting
range,
but
it
was.
It
was
really
unusual.
G
G
AA
It's
it's.
The
code
provides
that
for
time
averaged
sound,
so
that
would
be
music
or
other
things.
Well,.
AA
Average
is
something
where
you're
on
the
property:
you
have
a
noise
meter
and
you're
measuring
out
the
Sun
so
that
examples
of
that
are
loud,
music,
other
types
of
ambient
noises
from
7
A.M
to
10
p.m,
the
receiving
property.
The
sound
level
limit
is
60
decibels
from
fire
and
Paul,
and
this
is
where
we
fall
again
in
that
gray
area.
So
fireworks
would
technically
fall
under
impulsive
from
1001
pm
to
650
59
a.m:
they're
not
allowed.
AA
But
now
we've
got
a
state
statute
that
permits
folks
to
have
fireworks
on
those
three
specific
dates
and
the
intent
is
your
New
Year's
Eve
to
New
Year's
Day.
The
intent
is
you're
launching
and
the
Fourth
of
July
you're
launching
your
firing
in
theory.
Yes,
after
10
pm
on
the
4th
of
July,
you
may
be
able
to
call
whether
or
not
and
proper
enforcement
firearms
and
gunshots.
That's
another
gray
area,
because
local
governments
are
prohibited
from
enforcing
anything
relating
to
Firearms,
except
for.
If
there's
another,
then
you're
you're.
AA
Looking
at
trying
to
discover
find
who
is
the
unlawfully
discharging
a
firearm?
You
know
there
are
other
avenues
to
to
address
those
issues
but
fireworks.
We
unfortunately,
because
of
those
three
days
in
the
state
and
the
state
statute,
we
fall
into
that
gray
area.
As
to
how
far
can
we
push
enforcement
and
noise
when
it
comes
to
fireworks?
AA
I
mean
if
I
I
wouldn't
advise
I
would
I
would
not
advise
law
enforcement
to
not
try
to
enforce
if
if
a
offender
can
be
readily
identified
and
given
a
proper
warning
there,
just
maybe
the
realities
are
they
there
may
be
difficulties
in
in
Prosecuting
an
offense
to
that
nature,
but
to.
R
R
So
of
course,
fireworks
are
going
to
be
deemed
as
an
explosion
anytime
after
10
o'clock
until
seven
o'clock
in
the
morning,
R
says
not
allowed
period,
end
of
sentence
so
to
the
attorney's
point:
yeah
State,
preemption,
May
kind
of
tie
our
hands
in
terms
of
July
4th,
New,
Year's,
Eve
and
New
Year's
Day,
because
it
is
New,
Year's
Day,
but
all
those
other
dates
it
should
be
enforceable.
AA
Afterwards,
right,
no
and
as
I
said,
I
wouldn't
tell
law
enforcement
not
to
proceed
I'm
I'm,
just
kind
of
putting
it
all
out
there
that
there
may
be
difficulties
in
Prosecuting
it
yeah
I'm,
not
going
to
sugarcoat
and
say
we're
going
to
catch
everybody
and
everyone's
going
to
be
prosecuted.
We
will
proceed
forward
to
prosecution,
just
being
aware
that
there
may
be
difficulties
in
prosecution
because
of
usually
if
it's
easy,
if
if
one
property
is
readily
identifiable,
it's
gonna
make
prosecution
easier.
AA
Usually
it's
more
than
one
I
heard
it
before
the
before
New
Year's
I
can
hear
multiple
properties.
Discharging
the
question
is
then
becoming
you
know:
can
we
readily
identify
the
the
proper
offending
offending
property?
At
that
point?
It's
that's
just
I'm
just
giving
the
Practical
effect
when
it
comes
to
when
it
relates
to
fireworks.
X
AA
Well,
because
it
is
going
through
the
code
enforcement
I
mean
the
state
has
prohibited
any
anonymous
tips
there.
It's
it's
this.
That
is
something
that
we're
we're
prohibited
to
by
the
state,
also
because
the
on
a
noise
ordinance
because
you're
dealing
with
the
receiving
property,
the
the
citation
is
going
to
cite
this
is
the
property,
that's
being
that's
receiving
the
noise
at
this
address,
so
any
prosecution
of
the
matter
or
state.
The
officer
is
going
to
stay
on
this
date.
A
Okay,
all
right,
we

everybody

a

also
unanimously
recommended
approval,
and
the
recommended
motion
here
is
to
accept
the
first
reading
and
hold
it
over
for
a
second
reading
and
adoption
on
January
18th,
the
applicant
and
I
are
here
for
questions
any.

Right
right,
it's
just
changing
the
zoning
to
the
Kelly
Park,
interchange,
zoning.
So
the.

Good
afternoon
Commissioners,
my
name
is
Tony
binge
I'm
president
binge
development,
609
East,
Pine,
Street,
Orlando,
Florida
32803
correct.
What
we're
looking
at
doing
right
now
is
this
Southern
portion
would
be
the
southern
portion.
AF
AF
A
Sorry
pointer
there
we
go.
AF
AF
So
what
we're
doing
at
this
point
is
just
wanting
to
assign
the
proper
zoning
that
will
allow
more
of
a
town
use
commercial
density,
we're
not
yet
at
the
stage
of
knowing
exactly
where
the
layouts
for
the
buildings
will
be
obviously
we're
in
discussions
with
multiple
tenants
at
this
time,
getting
their
Footprints
everything
else.
So
this
is
just
an
early
stage
for
setting
the
table
for
what
will
be
a
commercial
setting
along
Kelly
Park.
AF
There's
affiliations
for.
X
Okay,
I
understand
NLP
or
something
along
those
lines
and
then
maybe
I
don't
know.
If
you
can't
speak
to
it
or
Pam,
sorry
to
ask:
is
there
I
guess,
can
we
just
speak
directly
to
what
the
the
plans
are
for
the
road
there
things
like
that,
just
to
get
a
little
more
Comfort
on
Kelly,
Park
and
absolutely.
AF
So
we've
started
that
process.
One
of
the
first
things
that
was
very
unusual
about
having
this
many
people
working
together
is
how
well
everyone
has
been
working
together.
I
can't
think
of
one
time
any
of
the
landowners
have
been
obstinate
or
not
playing
along.
Your
staff
has
done
an
excellent
job
of
laying
out
very
clear
goals
that
there
will
be
no
offset
roads.
You've
got
to
put
the
right
roads
in
the
right
places.
AF
How
they'll
be
built?
How
they'll
be
timed
all
that
you
have
the
entire
group
within
Kelly
Park
of
the
major
landowners
and
they're
working
well
together,
and
it's
helping,
because
it's
producing
an
efficiency
of
that
when
all
of
this
hits
we
need
to
have
to
make
sure
that
the
master
infrastructure
is
in
place.
That
is
a
daunting
level.
When
you
add
up
everything,
that's
been
coming
here.
It's
huge
I
I
cannot
commend
your
staff
enough.
AF
This
has
probably
been
the
best
example
of
Staff
coming
together
through
the
use
of
private
engineers
and
the
various
developers
to
make
sure
that
this
is
a
well
thought
out,
well-planned
well-executed
prescription
of
how
to
get
these
Road
improvements
done
now
I
completed,
but
get
them
completed,
timely
and
in
a
manner
that
will
allow
for
the
maximum
use
of
the
property
for
everyone.
So,
while
it's
very
tough
to
explain
to
people's
development
comes
in,
you've
got
a
myriad
of
disparate
interests.
AF
Working
on
that,
for
instance,
right
now,
I
mean
you've
got
probably
no
less
than
a
dozen
very
high
profile,
retailers
that
all
have
their
demands
and
wants
of
positioning
access
sign.
It
I
mean
you
name
it
it's
all
in
there
you
further
complicated
with
bringing
in
a
large
residential
component
intertwined
with
this.
So
now
you've
got
almost
a
PhD
level
of
master
plan.
It
needs
to
take
place.
AF
Well,
one
of
the
problems
we
have
as
developers
with
Orange
County
is
they
wait.
Till
school
is
completely
overcrowded
before
they'll.
Even
talk
about
doing
a
relief
to
It
Well
by
the
time
you
already
know,
there's
a
problem
and
now
you've
got
to
go,
identify
a
replacement
site
go
through
all
that
process.
By
the
time
you
actually
get
that
in
place.
AF
You're
gonna,
it's
gonna,
cost
you
three
times
as
much.
It's
gonna
have
already
caused
a
major
issue
with
that,
and
it's
just
it's
that
reactionary
problem
with
development.
This
is
the
antithesis
of
that
here.
You've
got
everybody
laying
out
those
potential
landmines
early
on
and
saying,
let's
make
sure
we
avoid
any
of
these.
AF
We
don't
want
to
be
coming
here
a
year
from
now,
two
years
from
now,
when
suddenly
a
small
change
on
a
piece
of
paper,
though
now
it's
it's
the
cost
of
the
change
of
the
paper
in
the
engineer's
time
you
start
having
to
move
major
road,
Transportation
networks,
ponds
or
buildings.
It
could
be
catastrophically
bad.
So
there
has
been
an
immense
level
of
effort
to
make
sure
that
this
is
laid
out
in
a
way
and
really
everyone
has
worked
well
together.
AF
I
I
can
think
of
at
least
half
a
dozen
times
that
property
owners
have
had
to
contact
each
other,
and
you
know
whether
they
may
be
a
third
or
fourth
phase
to
get
a
road
extended.
Knowing
how
can
we
get
this
done
early?
Will
you
work
with
us
on
that,
and
everyone
has
been
very,
very
cooperative
and
it
really
stems
back
from
you've
had
staff
and
Pam
in
particular,
has
really
done
a
good
job
of
laying
out
the
expectations
of
what
needs
to
be
done.
AF
So
this
development
can
be
done
timely,
but
it
also
can
be
done
in
a
way
that
shows
what
good
Ford
planning
can
lead
to
versus
being
reactionary
and
letting
everybody
just
come
in
piecemeal
and
do
what
they
want.
It's
been
the
opposite
here
and
I.
Think
that's
one
of
the
things
I
would
really
encourage
that.
AF
If
the
individual
Commissioners
would
like
to
get
a
better
sense
of
that
I'm
more
than
happy
to
meet
with
any
of
you,
one-on-one
and
kind
of
bring
up
to
speed
on
everything
going
on
within
this,
but
it's
also
going
to
need.
We
are
going
to
need
the
commission's
help
dealing
with
Orange
County
Orange
County
right
now
has
a
has
an
attitude
of
well
we're
in
control
of
our
things,
but
we'll
get
back
with
you.
AF
X
Are
you
able
to
speak
and
I
appreciate
you
giving
us
that
little
detail
and
I
I
think
most
of
us
are
always
interested
in
meeting
with
developers
just
to
hear
the
full
plan
to
give
us
a
better
Comfort
level,
so
I'm
always
open
to
that?
For
sure,
are
you
able
to
give
any
type
of
timelines
or
or
details
into
Kelly,
Park
and
golden
gym,
and
what
that
looks
like
it's
coming
quickly.
AF
AF
I
think
in
2023
you're
going
to
see
a
lot
of
development
activity
in
the
ground
right
now.
What
you're
not
seeing
is
a
lot
of
the
permitting
a
lot
of
the
processing
like
this
is
going
on
behind
the
scenes,
whereas
to
come
in
now
you
actually
start
seeing
the
bulldozers
come
in
you'll,
see
things
done,
you've
got
right
now,
I
know
at
least
three
key
retailers
that
will
be
here
in
the
next
60
days
and
we'll
get
a
very
good
indication
of
which
ones
are
coming
once
that
starts,
it's
kind
of
like
the
Dam
breaks.
AF
Z
Me
just
add
sure,
let's
get
closer
to
mine,
I'm,
sorry,
Kelly,
Park,
Road
and
the
signals
on
Kelly,
Park
Road
are
all
under
design
right
now
and
I
would
I
would
imagine
that's
going
to
take
a
year
to
get
all
that
completed
and
while
that's
going
on
and
Tony
brings
in
his
project
and
the
the
large
project
to
the
South
I
call
it
the
Rochelle
Holdings
piece
because
I
kind
of
remember
the
name
of
it
and
the
Galvin
piece.
Z
They
are
designing
big
components
of
roads
to
North,
South
roads,
East-West,
roads,
Tony's
project
will
design
the
extension
north
of
golden
gem.
Z
The
Rochelle
Holdings
piece
will
Design
the
extension
of
Sadler
and
Effie
road
on
the
south
side
and
then
whatever
it
is,
that's
coming
into
the
east
of
that
that
I
can't
remember
the
name
of
they
will
be
making
design
enhancements
to
Effie,
and
then
we've
collectively
agreed
where
they're
going
to
be
two
East-West
roads
which
will
be
installed
with
the
development.
So
because
these
roads
were
all
embedded
in
the
development
and
we
collectively,
as
a
group,
have
already
laid
them
out.
Z
They
know
that
when
they
come
in
and
make
their
development
successful,
I'll
go
back
to
the
Rochelle
Holdings
piece.
They
can't
work
without
Effie
Road
being
extended
to
the
South
and
they
can't
work
without
Sadler
Road
being
put
in.
That
is
their
responsibility,
and-
and
they
must
do
that,
so
when
they're
going
forward
with
their
development
and
based
on
my
emails
and
my
phone
blowing
up,
they
want
to
go
as
soon
as
possible.
Z
You
know
a
year
whenever
you
see
them
start
doing
their
development.
One
of
the
first
things
you'll
see
are
those
pieces
of
infrastructure.
X
Z
For
everybody,
we're
we're
memorializing
all
this
in
a
area-wide
master
plan
and
a
pioneering
agreement
that
all
these
developers
are
signing
on
to
that's
how
we're
going
to
ensure
that
it
gets
done.
They've
all
agreed
to
it.
We've
had
two
or
three
meetings.
There
is
a
hierarchy
of
what
needs
to
get
done.
They
build
the
things
on
their
site,
but
we,
the
city,
then,
are
left
with
roads
like
Kelly,
Park
Road.
That
needs
to
be
widened.
X
What
it
does
sound
like
too,
and
you
reference
this-
is
that
Orange
County
needs
to
get
involved
in
a
much
higher
capacity
as
well
to
partner
with
us
and
make
sure
we
just
have
a
little
more
open
dialogue,
not
seeing
that
we
don't
but
there's
a
disconnect
somewhere,
and
we
need
to
fix
it
moving
forward.
So
I'm
not
saying
it's
us
not
saying
it's
them,
it's
everybody.
Communication
is
key
on
both
sides,
so
I
appreciate
all
the
detail.
Thank
you
and.
AF
The
way
things
are
done
and
there's
very
compelling
reasons
of
why
they're
done
that
way
and
I
think
that
might
be
very
helpful
for
the
commission
just
to
almost
have
like
a
update
of
the
area.
So
you
can
kind
of
see
some
of
the
key
Transportation
notes.
Utility
capacity
make
sure
that
all
the
concurrency
items
are
there.
One
thing
is
obviously
Orange:
County
is
going
to
play
a
big
role
in.
Is
the
schools
you're
going
to
have
a
lot
of
rooftops
coming
in
out
here?
What
what
are
the
plans
for
this?
AF
Where
what
are
we
being
ready?
We
also
have
studies
that
have
been
done
that
show
the
significant
growth
that
is
anticipated
from
this
from
third-party
experts
who
model
the
kind
of
growth
activity.
They
see
we'll
be
happy
to
share
those
reports
as
well,
but
these
are
the
kind
of
things
that
you
want
to
be
proactive
and
get
ahead
with
that
and
I
think
that
one
thing
that
we
as
the
development
Community
could
do
is
offer
at
least
up
our
insights
as
to
why
things
are
done
a
certain
way.
AF
So
at
least
it
can
kind
of
fill
in
a
little
bit
of
the
history.
So
if
a
resident
comes
in
and
it's
a
very
understandable
thing
that
they
see
all
this
activity
going
well,
why
aren't
the
roads
built
the
first
day?
Well,
there's?
Obviously,
a
lot
of
reasons
such
as
utilities
need
to
go
in
underground
first,
so
you
got
to
get
those
in
before
any
of
the
roads
going
kind
of
on
your
way.
Out
with
that,
you
also
will
damage
them
a
lot
of
times
by
bringing
in
heavy
concrete
trucks,
trust
trucks
building
panels.
AF
If
it's
the
tilt
wall,
the
extreme
weight
on
that
can
also
damage
a
lot
of
this
stuff.
So
there's
a
normal
process
that
it
goes
through,
I
think
the
more
we
can
get
those
kind
of
informational
things
out
to
everybody,
we'll
give
every
Collective
aha,
now
I
understand
what
I
can
expect
to
see
over
the
next
coming
year.
Two
three
and
four
years
out.
X
I
mean
I
love
workshops,
so
that
would
be
really
beneficial
for
kind
of
just
having
a
kpi
overall
Workshop
just
to
update
everyone.
There's
a
lot
of
new
residents
to
your
point
and
to
make
sure
that
everyone
can
either
Express
how
they
feel
and
then
also
to
kind
of
understand
the
process
a
little
bit
better,
including
myself
and.
AF
R
No
I
mean
do
you
want
us
to
coordinate
through
Pam
for
that
meeting,
because
I
would
like
to
take
you
up
on
the
offer.
Okay,
because
I
mean
you
know,
Pam
and
I
talked
spiritedly
about
this
on
Tuesday
night.
You
know
the
plan
and
pioneering
agreement.
I
think
are
words
that
we'll
repeatedly
say
here,
because
again
in
all
fairness
to
the
people
in
this
room
gentleman
in
the
back
with
his
hand
up
right
now,
we
we
just
as
a
council
even.
R
Process,
we
still
need
to
have
something
to
point
to
members
of
our
public
that
do
have
those
questions
to
say:
here's
exactly
what
we
are
planning
to
do,
and
so
that's
the
conversation
that
Pam
and
I
had
General
head
nodding
agreements
now
I
want
that
timeline
very
accelerated,
because
the
gentleman
to
your
right
will
probably
talk
here.
They.
AF
Absolutely
I
think
that's
what
will
be
very
helpful
because,
again,
once
they
see
what's
been
done,
the
order
of
things
going
in
one
of
the
nuances
we
have
to
be
careful
with
is,
as
everyone
is
procuring
their
tenants
or
or
deals
a
lot
of
that's
kind
of
the
poker
game
that
developers
will
play
with
each
other.
Who
has
this
tenant
that
tenant
coming
in,
but
things
such
as
the
overall
Master
infrastructure
plan
I
think
could
easily
be
disseminated
out
with
reasonable
timing
windows
on
that
I
mean
obviously
with
construction.
AF
You
know
things
will
never
be
as
exact
as
on
this
exact
date.
You'll
get
that,
but
you
know
General
timeline
of
what
will
occur
when,
but
more
so
is
the.
Why?
That's?
What
really
lets
people
understand?
There's
a
rationale
to
this:
it
isn't
we
just
like
to
make
things
more
difficult
for
people,
but
there's
you
know
the
reasons
for
the
process.
D
Vasquez
I
want
to
take
him
up
on
the
suggestion
that
you
know
they
would
bring
us
up
to
date
regarding
the
Kelly,
Park,
interchange,
I'm
kind
of
on
the
same
page
as
as
commissioner
Nestor,
rather
than
doing
it
individually
with
each
of
us,
because
that's
a
time
consuming
and
then,
when
we
go
back
to
kind
of
give
the
information,
it
may
come
out
differently
from
each
of
us,
but
a
workshop.
D
That
would
allow
the
public
to
come
in
and
hear
it
just
as
well,
and-
and
we
all
hear
the
same
information
at
the
same
time,
I
would
I
would
be
on
board
for
a
workshop.
All.
E
Okay,
looking
at
the
master
plan,
I
understand
we're
only
looking
at
a
small
subsection
of
the
master
plan
today
and
surprisingly
enough
I'm
not
going
to
talk
against
it.
E
I
am
concerned
about
one
thing:
a
few
weeks
ago
on
public
record
Jim
hit
your
Planning
and
Zoning
gentleman
told
us
that
there
were
a
maximum
number
of
houses
per
year
between
five
and
six
hundred
years
project
between
five
and
six
hundred
homes
per
annum
projected
having
a
look
at
this
master
plan,
I
have
to
call
into
question
in
its
totality
exactly
many
house
how
how
many
houses
are
going
to
be
put
on
there.
It
looks
to
me
like
it's
a
potential
development
for,
for
maybe
a
thousand
homes
am
I
incorrect.
E
The
multiple
family
is
actually
larger
than
that.
Okay.
So,
ladies
and
gentlemen,
how
can
Mr
hit
tell
us?
He
has
a
maximum
five
or
six
hundred
homes
per
year
over
in
the
next
five
years
and
we're
speaking
about
another
2
000
homes
in
this
development
alone,
I
might
be
liked.
I
might
be
Mirror
full
of
because
two
thousand
homes
is
going
to
be
far
more
than
what
he
said.
His
projected
figures
of
five
or
six
hundred
homes
per
annum
were
yeah
and.
R
Not
to
speak
for
Mr
hit
how
I
would
interpret
that
and
and
I
think
this
year
it
was
close
to
700.
Maybe,
but
are
we
talking
certificates
of
occupancy
or
approvals?
Maybe
you
want
to
clarify
that
the
numbers,
because
when
I
say
five
or
six
hundred
homes,
I'm
thinking
that's
what
our
Factory
capacity
is
in
terms
of
churning
out
certificates
of
occupancy,
but
I'm,
not
sure.
If
you
have
a
different
point
of
view
on
that.
P
Sorry,
Jimmy
community
development,
director
you're
right,
commissioner
there's
this
area
itself
is
designated
for
approximately
8
000
homes
total
in
the
kpi.
That's
what
the
kpi
was
outlined
for
I
just
tallied.
The
numbers
I
believe
it
was
Monday
with
the
number
of
cos
for
single-family
homes
and
it
was
382.
Last
year,
382
382.
R
O
H
P
All
of
Apopka
correct,
Town
Homes
we
had
96.
and
and
then
I've
gotten
on
non-residential
and
regular
CEO.
That
96.
R
P
Do
that's
that's.
That
is
just
the
townhouse.
We
didn't
have
any
multi-family
CEOs
last
year
year
before
that
we
did
I,
don't
have
the
I.
Don't
have
the
2021,
because.
P
Yes,
I'm
gonna
have
about
I
believe
it's
four
multi-families
coming
online
in
2023.
yeah
they
were,
they
were
doing
a
lot
of
groundwork.
A
lot
of
vertical
starts
in
2022
you're,
correct.
R
R
P
E
H
P
Couldn't
tell
you
exactly
what
that
would
be,
we
are
looking
at
hiring
another
inspector
because
of
the
influx
of
the
multi-family.
That's
coming
online,
though
right
now
we're
we're
holding
it.
We've
got
a
few
inspectors
that
have
different
different
traits,
different
certifications.
They
can
do
certain
things.
P
The
regular
residential
is
one
of
the
easier
ones
to
get,
and
then
there's
the
electrical
and
plumbing
and
mechanical.
Those
are
the
ones
that
are
a
little
bit
harder
to
get,
but-
and
some
of
that
is
more
specific
to
certain
types
of
jobs,
but.
P
R
AF
R
X
R
Think
I
agree,
the
backlog
is
significant
and
the
backlog
continues
to
grow.
I
think
that's
the
point
of
contention
on
a
lot
of
these
discussions,
the
the
the
kind
of
the
governing
governing
effect
or
the
governor
on
that
is
our
capacity.
You
know:
we've
got
finite
capacity
in
our
Factory
right,
Factory,
being
building
department
within
city
hall
and
then
two
the
number
of
housing
starts
are
declining
going
into
2023
and
so
Market
forces
will
dictate
that
number
as
well
so
I
agreed.
We've
got
a
lot
in
the
backlog.
If
that
turns
over.
P
Thing
and
that's
exactly
what
we're
looking
at
doing:
one
of
the
things
you
know
we
were
mentioning
doing
a
workshop
on
the
kpi
area.
I've
already
started
a
map
that
will
outline
what
developments
have
been
approved,
how
many
units
there
are
for
that,
because
it's
valuable
if
we,
if
we've
got
a
cap
of
around
80
a
little
over
8
000
units,
I
we're
already
sitting
I,
did
a
rough
estimate
we're
at
about
3
500
right
now,
and
that's
with
all
the
ones
that
we've
been
doing
so
far.
That's.
X
Number,
yes,
sir,
and
we
don't
current,
do
we
have
not
only
does
your
department
understaffed
a
little
bit
right
now
and
overburden?
Do
we
have
the
building
fire
inspector
didn't
weren't,
we
hiring
a
position
for
that.
Do
we.
P
X
A
X
X
X
A
One
of
the
things
we
might
look
at
is
not
only
having
the
the
fire
inspector,
maybe
be
a
multi-disciplined
inspector
as
well,
so
they
can
do.
Maybe
you
can
do
some
other
things
while
you're
out
there.
So
one
of
the
things
we're
gonna
we're
gonna
look
at
is
a
that'd.
P
Of
the
things
that
City
attorney
just
reminded
me
of
is
that
we,
we
have
had
a
couple
of
the
builders
that
actually,
according
to
Florida
Statutes,
they
can
actually
hire
their
own
inspectors,
their
certified
inspectors
to
do
their
own
inspections
and
some
of
these
larger
apartment
complexes
that
they
have
done
that
already
before.
And
that
and
then
that
saves
us
yeah
having
to
hire
our
own
Personnel.
P
P
Backlog,
we
still
have
ultimate
approval,
yeah
sure.
In
other
words,
we
we
actually
do
go
out
there
and
verify
a
couple
Inspections
just
to
just
to
make
sure
they're
on
board
and
they've
done.
A
good
they've
actually
done
a
very
good
job.
They
do
that
for
other
communities,
quite
often,
okay,
so.
D
D
E
E
It's
only
a
few
weeks
ago
that
you
were
telling
me
the
maximum
was
going
to
be
600
a
year
now
we're
speaking
in
a
cycle
of
five
years,
eleven
thousand
homes,
that's
well
over
2
000
a
year.
How
many
homes
are
we
actually
deciding
that
we're
going
to
build
over
a
five-year
period?
Your
road
structure
plan
goes
back
to
what
is
it
2008?
We
haven't,
got
a
comprehensive
Road
structure
plan
just
now,
and
yet
we're
speaking
about
building
11,
000
new
homes
and
Expediting
them.
It's
not
if
we're
capable
of
building.
H
R
Yeah
again,
I
I'm,
just
using
past
Trend
as
a
guide,
Trend,
would
say
over
the
last
10
years
we've
our
Factory
output
of
cos
is
around
500,
give
or
take
that's
I'm,
not
saying
I
have
no
opinion
on
whether
or
not
that's
our
desired.
State
I
would
lean
on
staff
to
say:
okay,
500
is
our
sweet
spot
based
off
of
our
current
staff,
based
off
of
our
ability
to
plan
properly
for
Public
Safety
Public
Services
Fleet
facilities
to
support
growth.
R
If
we
go
up
100
homes,
200
homes,
300,
if
we
get
to
a
thousand
per
year,
okay,
that's
outside
of
the
norm.
That's
going
to
create
stress.
Do
we
feel
like
there's
planning
deficiencies
or
deficiencies
in
general
that
we
need
to
consider
as
a
council?
That's
what
I
would
rely
on
staff
to
your
point.
I
would
like
to
rely
on
staff
to
provide
that
level
of
insight
to
say
we
need
to
pump
the
brakes
or
hey
we're
able
to
get
more
through
the
funnel
here's.
R
But
what
I'm
saying
that
when
I
say
five
or
six
hundred
it's
just
what
does
our
Trend
look
like
over
the
past
10
years
and
that's
from
my
understanding,
that's
what
it's
been,
and
so
what
that
tells
me
if
we've
been
able
some
could
argue
the
point
right
if
we've
been
able
to
properly
staff,
knowing
that
that
annual
churn
rate,
one
would
say:
okay,
we're
on
a
good
path,
but
again
I
need
staff
to
tell
us
up
or
down
whether
or
not
that
is
valid.
Thank
you.
J
R
R
But
to
say
I
mean
I
would
argue
the
point
that
I
would
be
shocked
if
there's
eleven
thousand
dwelling
units
that
are
online
within
a
five-year
period
in
that
particular
area,
again
I'm.
Looking
for
a
confirmation
or
discredit
of
that,
because
I'm
up
here
thinking
I,
don't
think
that
will
be
anywhere
close
to
11
000
dwelling
units
within
that
area
within
a
five-year
period
is
that
they.
P
Safe
to
assume
the
the
8
000
is
the
maximum
for
the
kpi
area
from
the
other,
the
other
apartments
there's
a
few
other
apartment
complexes
off
of
Binion
Road
and
then
also
off
of
old
Apopka
Boulevard.
So
those
are,
those
are
the
main
areas
that
we've
got
right
now
is
you
know
for
the
for
the
apartment,
portions
I
would
expect
that
the
single
family
will
probably
end
up
being
a
little
lower
than
that
382.
That
was
last
year.
That's
that
was
a
little
less
than
the
year
before
2021
was
our.
R
And
in
all
fairness
to
Mr,
McKinney
who's
sitting
there
and
I,
don't
know
if
it's
larger
text
on
the
concept
plan
I've
been
looking
at,
but
everything
that's
with
a
pink
Rooftop
in
that
picture
is
commercial
on
this
particular
concept
plan.
So
the
majority
of
what
you're
looking
at
there
is
commercial,
not
dwelling
units
I,
think
what
Mr
benge
was
referring
to
before.
Maybe
in
the
multi-family
was
on
the
piece
of
parcel.
That's
north
of
this
property,
but
not
part
of
the
business
on
this
particular
zoning
change
and
again,
is
that
a
correct
statement.
R
R
R
T
Yes,
as
a
concerned,
citizen
I'm
trying
to
follow
along
with
everything,
that's
transpiring
here
and
when
I
look
at
some
of
the
issues
that
are
brought
up.
If
some
of
the
residents
didn't
bring
up
those
issues,
those
things
wouldn't
get
addressed,
and
so
none
of
us
are
resident
expert
on
what
we're
reviewing
here.
So
my
suggestion
is:
what
be
would
it
be
outside
of
the
question
to
have
you
guys
to
have
a
consultant
when
you're
dealing
with
this?
So
all
angles
will
be
covered.
T
You
guys
won't
be
blind
side
or
you
guys,
won't
miss
anything,
because
if
you're
not
skilled
in
this
in
this
particular
area,
what
you're
called
to
make
a
decision
on
you
can
easily
blindsided.
We
have
one
well,
if
that's
the
case,
then
all
these
questions
that
these
Gentlemens
are
raising
should
have
already
been
taken
care
of,
and
that's
not
the
case.
So
just
just
something
to
consider
mayor.
A
A
Y
Thank
you
good
afternoon,
mayor
Commissioners.
At
this
time,
I
request
Council
adoption,
a
resolution
number
20
to
202301
FY
22
23
budget
amendment
number,
seven
in
the
amount
of
20
million
427
101.57.
Y
The
budget
amendment
consists
of
four
items:
the
first
item-
Transportation
impact
free
Reserve
fund
amendment
in
the
amount
of
nine
hundred
seventy
five
thousand
eight.
Ninety
seven.
This
is
related
to
an
agreement
that
was
brought
to
you
on
November,
I,
think,
17th
transportation
impact
fee
credit
agreement
between
the
city
of
Apopka,
Airwood,
Arrow,
Rock,
GE,
Apopka,
LLC,
pmdw,
Adventures
LLC
to
upgrade
a
resurface,
King,
Street
and
Peterson
Road
number
two
is
a
sub-recipient
agreement
that
was
approved
tonight
under
the
consent
agenda
for
the
crra
area.
Y
It's
the
sidewalk
installation,
Improvement
project
phase,
one
the
grant
is
in
the
amount
of
249
950
from
Orange
County,
the
third
item.
We
have
some
additional
expenses
that
and
repair
work
that
is
necessary
as
a
result
of
Hurricane
in
we're
estimating
that
cost
to
be
about
two
hundred
and
forty
thousand.
We
do
plan
to
seek
reimbursement
from
fever
FEMA
for
those
repairs.
X
F
Now
we
don't
have
that
right
now.
We
will
have
that
for
you,
commissioner,
and
we
will
bring
that
to
you
this
we're
hoping
this
is
our
last
bus
Amendment
we're
going
to
cover
those
costs
and
take
care
of
those
items,
but
as
soon
as
we
have
that
we'll
be
able
to
bring
that
to
you,
because
that's
what
we
will
apply
to
FEMA
for
reimbursement
and.
F
F
R
H
A
Y
O
D
D
Well,
first
Happy
New
Year
to
everyone
the
only
thing
I
we
didn't
do
too
much
over
the
holidays,
but
the
only
thing
that
I
just
want
to
make
a
comment
about
is
that
you
know
the
last
few
City
Council
meetings.
Actually
the
last
few
months
of
City
Council
meetings
for
public
comment.
D
D
And
you
know,
I
really
want
to
start
2023
where
we
can
come
together
where
we
can
work
together
and
that
there
be
some
transparency
and
that
we
can
actually
get
to
a
point
where
we
have
a
resolution
and
I
realize
that
the
death
of
Austin
Duran
has
really
brought
to
the
surface
a
lot
that
we
have
to
fix
and
that
we
have
to
address
and
I
realize
that
we're
not
going
to
close
the
chapter
as
quickly
as
as
maybe
some
would
like,
but
certainly
I
have
a
concern
that
at
every
city,
council
meeting
I
feel
like
I'm,
getting
the
same
message
over
and
over
again
and
I
like
to
see
that
come
to
some
conclusion
and
that
we
have
something
that
we
can
offer
the
family
that
we
can
give
to
our
firefighters
that
we
can
give
to
our
public
and,
most
importantly,
the
families
that
that
are
in
the
city
of
Apopka.
D
Looking
at
us
and
saying.
Well,
what
is
the
commission
doing
and
how
are
we
trying
to
resolve
this?
And
and
how
are
we
going
to
bring
some
closure
to
the
family,
they're
never
going
to
have
closure,
but
what
they're?
Looking
for
is
where's
our
compassion
for
them
and
I
like
to
see
that
happen
in
the
next.
You
know
few
Council
meetings
because
I
like
this,
not
not
have
the
family
come
every
city,
council
meeting
and
I
just
feel
a
lot
for
them.
D
They
really
want
to
be
home
and
grieve,
but
they
want
to
know
that
we
are
that
we
are
doing
the
right
thing
for
them,
and
so,
let's
make
that
our
mission
for
the
next
few
Council
meetings,
let's
come
together,
bring
us
as
much
information
that
you
can
give
us
so
that
we
can
feel
like.
We
are
doing
the
right
thing
and
you
know
that's.
R
I
agree
with
that
sentiment.
I
think
I've
talked
enough
during
public
comment
on
that
topic,
but
fully
agree.
If.
H
R
Not
making
that
up
I'm
not
trying
to
be
a
Jerk
It's
reality
and
we've
we've
got
to
do
better
anyways,
you
know
I,
don't
see
no
I
Mr
Hall
made
a
point
just
a
second
ago
and
I
see
public
comment
and
debate
very
healthy
in
this
chamber.
You.
R
Right
there's
times
where
there's
pieces
of
business,
where
we
we
need
to
be
held
accountable
in
our
decision-making
process
and
I,
see
that
as
a
value
add
not.
You
know,
Mr
mckimmy
come
up
here
and
challenge
us.
Do
it
like
it's
appreciated
same
with
Mr,
Hall
and
and
everybody
else
that
gets
up
here
and
and
speaks
and
holds
us
accountable
for
us,
so
I
would
encourage
it.
R
In
fact,
I
would
encourage
more
people
that
are
on
social
media
that
hide
behind
Anonymous
comments
on
on
web
pages
or
fake
accounts
on
social
media
pages
to
come
to
these
city
council
proceedings
and
make
your
voice
known
publicly.
All
of
us
here
on
Council
have
email
addresses
that
are
publicly
known.
We
also
all
have
phone
numbers
that
are
publicly
listed.
We
also
all
of
us
I.
Think
up
here
are
ready
to
devote
the
time
to
have
conversations
with
you.
R
If
you
need
to
stress
your
concerns,
so
please
I,
encourage
you
to
you
know:
I'll
speak
for
myself.
Beat
me
up
come
to
this
lectern
and
hold
me
accountable,
because
it
just
makes
us
a
better
City
and
better
people
for
it.
R
With
that
said,
I
don't
have
anything
else
other
than
before.
The
next
city
council
meeting
I
look
forward
to
honoring
Dr
Martin
Luther
King
Jr
in
the
parade
on
the
16th
and
hope
to
see
everybody.
There.
B
And
we
do
need
to
come
to
some
resolve
and
and
I
did
ask
the
City
Attorney
at
the
last
council
meeting
if
he
agreed
with
the
decision
that
the
file
Chief
made
in
reference
to
asking
the
committee
to
stand
down
and
I'm,
not
sure
I
got
an
answer.
B
But
we
need
to
do
whatever
is
necessary
in
order
to
bring
this
to
to
a
closure,
and
so
that
everybody
is
satisfied
with
with
our
response
and
that
they
feel
that
we
are
being
responsive
and
that
we're
listening
to
their
concerns
and
we
do
really
care
about
all
of
our
employees.
And
so
we
we
need
to
to
address
that
and
then
I.
Think.
B
At
the
last
committee
meeting
council
meeting
I
asked
about
an
update
on
the
diversity,
Equity
inclusion
committee
and
I'm
sure
we'll
get
that
at
some
point
and
also
we
did
set
a
date
for
the
next
annexation
meeting.
So.
H
B
And
the
Departments
did
their
homework,
but
the
data
as
far
as
what
it
would
cost
to
follow
that
to
take
place,
and
so
I'm
hoping
that
at
this
next
meeting
that
we're
not
so
focusing
on
the
cost
focus
on
the
process
as
to
how
are
we
going
to
make
that
happen?
That's
all
I
have.
X
I
got
a
few
things
as
I
always
do
happy.
New
Year
to
everyone
just
confirm
on
yours:
you're,
going
to
cover
diversity,
Equity
inclusion
in
annexation,
okay,
so
I
want
to
ask
mine,
are
all
over
the
place.
The
one
you
had
said
just
recently,
we
haven't
consulted
for
construction
stuff.
What
company
is
that
or
who?
Is
it.
A
What's
the
guy's
name
and
one
out
of
Gainesville,
what's
the
guy,
we
used
to
look
at
the
big
projects?
Scott,
yes,
is.
P
He
has
his
own
company,
but
he's
an
individual,
and
how
does
he
I
guess,
consult
us
some?
A
couple
of
the
larger
projects
I
send
them
the
the
background
information
and
ask
for
a
synopsis,
and
then
we
usually
talk
over
the
phone
about
the
developments
and
what
they
are.
How
many
units
there
are
access
points
things
like
that.
How.
X
Okay,
perfect
yeah,
I,
just
I
didn't
know
we
had
one
so
that
just
educates
me.
Thank
you
appreciate
it.
That's
good
I
want
to
talk
about
a
meeting
I
had
today,
with
our
Recycling
and
and
talking
about
adopt
a
road.
Keep
a
buck.
Keep
Apopka
beautiful
I'm,
going
to
try
to
kind
of
revamp
that
program
really
kind
of
get
it
going.
I
think
we
need
to
keep
our
roads
a
little
bit.
X
Cleaner
will
help
with
beautification
recycling
is
a
big
part
of
that
too,
and
there's
a
big
Financial
component
to
recycling
as
well.
That
I
think
we
need
to
kind
of
dive
into
and
figure
out
what
we
want
as
a
city
as
a
council
there's
a
lot
there,
so
I
just
want
to
you
guys,
be
ready,
I'll,
be
bringing
some
recycling
ideas
and
things
like
that.
Up
to
you
guys.
We
have
the
queer.
X
Excuse
me
Clearwater,
Lake,
meeting
tomorrow
at
three
correct,
yes,
okay,
perfect
I'm
excited
for
that
I
think
that'll
be
really
good
for
us.
A
reference
to
the
fire
department.
I
had
a
meeting
with
them
last
week.
I
believe
it
is
really
just
in
reference
to
the
the
whole
point
of
the
meeting
was
to
just
talk
about
trailer
safety.
What
were
we
and
thank
you,
guys
were
kind
of
joining
us,
this
perfect
timing,
so
I
really
just
needed
to
know
I
had
residents
reach
out
what
are
we
doing
for
trailer
safety?
X
A
X
X
In
that
same
meeting
we
talked
about
some
station
four
improvements
that
I'm
really
looking
forward
to
I.
Think
it's
going
to
really
benefit
the
department
as
a
whole
and
obviously
station
four
it'll
just
be
incredible:
Improvement.
X
They
also,
we
discussed.
They
brought
it
to
me
of
having
like
a
monthly
meeting,
basically
with
the
our
two
new
departments
and
I
always
get
them
with
fuse.
It's
the
safety
and
then
training
officers
basically
meet
us
monthly
so
that
we
understand
what
they're
working
on
just
so
that
we
can
again
be
able
to
articulate
it
correctly.
X
So
I'm
excited
for
that
I'm,
hoping
that
that
will
help
too
not
get
our
any
information
on
social
media
or
hear
third
party
that
we're
going
to
be
able
to
ask
questions
directly
and
so
I
would
hope.
You
guys
would
kind
of
take
those
meetings
as
well
and
I.
Think
it'll
help
us
our
dialogue
and
then
help
be
us
being
better
leaders.
A
X
One
I
I,
it's
I,
I
I
thought
it
was
a
great
idea
for
that.
The
fire
department
brought
it
to
me.
So
I
thought
it
was
a
great
idea
and
it's
whatever
everyone's
comfortable
with
I.
Don't
want
it
to
be
what
I
told
them
and
it's
to
to
commercial
vazquez's
point
is
I'm
tired
of
coming
up
here
and
it
be
a
war
and
and
I'm
hoping
meetings.
X
Offline
will
help
this
be
a
more
cohesive,
Council
commission
and
a
more
cohesive
Department
as
well
and
I
hope
that
trickles
down
and
creates
a
healthier,
more
communicative
Department.
We
got
to
start
somewhere
and
I'm,
hoping
that
gets
us
somewhere.
So
I'm
I'm
hopeful
of
that
and
I
want
to
give
the
department
the
opportunity
to
create
a
lot
more
communication
because
again,
I've
always
said,
communication
breeds
confidence.
So
if
there's.
X
All
hearing
the
same
thing:
okay,
yeah
yeah-
it
makes
it
consistent,
I'm
I'm,
definitely,
okay
with
that
that
I'm
good
with
all
that
and
again
it's
going
to
create
a
lot
of
allow
us
to
have
a
lot
of
dialogue.
So
again
it
kind
of
goes
to
the
workshop
thing,
but
I
know
everyone
doesn't
like
workshops.
That's
almost
like
a
little
mini
Workshop,
so
I'm,
okay
with
that
absolutely
I,
just
want
to.
X
One
yeah,
however,
we
do
it
I
think
would
be
just
be
great.
Just
have
it
on
that's
our
expectation
every
every
month
having
I
think
that's
just
going
to
be
beneficial
and
and
have
a
public
comment
period
to
ask
whatever
it
may
be.
X
Whatever
certain
questions
I
think
it's
going
to
be
very
beneficial
for
that,
the
other
thing
and
I
don't
know
if,
in
what
capacity
this
may
be
beneficial
but
to
have
a
fire
state
to
add
a
non-commissioner
non-employee,
just
a
resident
be
on
that
Fire
Safety
Committee,
just
to
give
just
to
see
that
outside
perspective,
I
think
that
will
they
have
a
different
view
of
it,
and
it
just
helps
with
accountability.
Things
like
that
as
well.
I
think
having
somebody
that
doesn't
have
a
job
here.
X
They
don't
have
any
skin
game
other
than
wanting
this
to
be
as
safe
as
possible.
So
I
would
think
that
that
would
be
beneficial
to
have
a
resident.
A
non-employee,
possibly
part
of
the
Safety
Committee
be
added,
so
I
depends
what
everyone
else
feels,
but
I
think
that
would
be
helpful
infrastructure
I
want
to
just
talk
about
that.
It's
been
just
huge.
What
we've
been
talking
about,
it's
I
know
we
want.
We
want
safe
roads.
X
That
should
be
our
biggest
thing,
it's
safety
for
all,
and
we
just
need
to
it's
a
multifaceted
issue
that
requires
a
multifaceted
approach,
so
we're
in
it
and
I.
Think
having-
and
this
goes
to
another
thing
that
came
up
is
just
a
kind
of
that
Kelly
Park,
interchange,
Workshop
I,
think,
is
a
really
great
idea.
I
think
that's
going
to
definitely
be
beneficial.
To
have
a
lot
of
dialogue.
Have
all
the
key
players:
Orange
County
ocps
us,
the
developers,
everybody
in
one
room
being
able
to
have
questions
asked
to
them.
A
X
X
I'm
happy
for
that.
So
that's
no
problem!
There
I
already
talked
about
that
again.
The
16th
for
Dr
Martin,
Luther,
King
Jr
parade
I'm,
looking
forward
to
that
being
a
part
of
that,
so
oh
and
then
the
other
one
was
just
the
cyclists
and
pedestrian
safety.
We
obviously
need
that
again.
I,
don't
know
if
you
guys
saw
it
driving
in
there
was
a
a
bicycle
under
a
car
on
the
way
here,
written
it
to
Caitlin
Nelson.
X
Then
we
had
somebody
that
got
struck
and
passed
away
last
week,
two
weeks
ago,
right
out
front
of
City
Hall,
so
there's
clearly
a
need.
So,
however,
we
can
kind
of
support
that
and
make
sure
that
we're
teaming
up
our
additional
sidewalks
and
all
that
with
best
foot
forward
I
think
it
can
only
benefit
us.
So
that's
it
all.
B
One
day
last
week
there
was
an
accident
at
the
intersection
of
Keene
Road
and
Apopka
Clarcona,
where
individual
ran
through
the
traffic
light,
and
there
was
two
individuals
who
append
in
the
automobile
and
I
actually
had
an
opportunity
to
see
the
fire
department
using
jaws
of
life,
to
release
those
two
individuals
from
that
vehicle
and
to
watch
their
professionalism.
B
How
they
went
about
and
displayed
their
professionalism
in
that
accident
was
very,
very
rewarding
and
so
just
want
to
give
a
hands
up
to,
and
the
police
department
was,
there
was
on
board
as
well
and
blocked
off
traffic
and
diverted
traffic
in
other
directions
into
the
accident
scene
was
cleared
so
just
a
prime
example
of
our
department.
B
A
All
right,
another
mayor's
report
got
six
items.
One
Clear,
Lake,
meeting
public
meeting
will
be
tomorrow
at
three
o'clock
here
in
the
city
council
chambers,
at
five
o'clock,
so
just
right
across
the
street
at
the
Apopka
Museum
we're
having
the
Apopka
youth
Council
meet
with
the
Apopka
Museum
about
Black
History
Month.
So
if
you
want
to
get
involved
with
that,
that's
a
five
yeah
they'll
be
at
five.
Okay.
Next
thing,
the
South
Apopka
annexation
community
meeting
will
be
Tuesday,
January,
24th,
4
P.M
to
6
p.m.
A
X
So
there
was
an
idea
brought
up
and
and
not
to
just
kind
of
piggyback,
that
real
quick
if
we
can
hand
out
or
create
quick
Flyers
for
possibly
handing
out
at
the
parade
on
the
16th
sure
just
to
educate
and
let
everyone
know
that
this
is
going
to
be
an
event
there,
because
it's
it
ends
at
the
John
Bridges
Center
I
think
that
would
just
be
beneficial
to
okay.
H
A
A
Can
handle
that
awesome?
Okay,
next
up
diversity,
Equity
inclusion
committee,
we're
gonna,
we're
partnering
with
our
friends
over
at
the
Apopka
chamber
for
a
joint
Dei
committee
committees.
It's
going
to
be
January
31st
2023
at
1
pm
at
the
VFW
to
look
at
we're,
going
to
go
back
and
look
at
some
of
the
things
that
are.
Are
our
bid
processes
they're
going
to
help
us
with
some
of
the
diversity
minority
contracting
business?
A
So
it
should
be
still
formulating
the
the
agenda,
but
it
will
be
January
31st
Tuesday
at
1
pm
at
the
VFW,
so
we're
also
bringing
our
partners
that
are
doing
a
lot
of
the
development
to
you
know
to
have
them
as
be
a
part
of
that
as
well.
A
Next
up
Federal
Appropriations
HR,
2
2617,
the
Consolidated
Appropriations
Act,
was
signed
into
law
on
12
29
2022,
that's
congresswoman
demings
got
us
to
2.5
million
dollars
and
President
Biden
signed
into
law.
So
we
got
two
and
a
half
million
dollars
to
replace
galvanized
in
asbestos
pipes
and
the
last
thing
I'm
pretty
proud
of
I
had
a
small
part
in
it
is
the
the
new
building
the
ocps
Technical
Training
Center
across
from
Wheatley
has
been
named,
will
be
named.
A
The
Shirley,
sharp
Trail
building,
so
I'm
excited
about
that
I
think
I
haven't
got.
One
of
the
date
has
been
set
for
the
the
ribbon
cutting
but
excited.
You
know
what
a
wonderful
lady
great
tribute
to
her
and
what
what
she's
accomplished
here
in
Apopka
so
anyway,
and
with
that
and
once.
