To
complete,
as
architects
came
and
went,
the
british
set
fire
to
it
and
it
was
called
into
use
during
the
civil
war
today,
the
capitol
building
with
its
famous
cast
iron
dome.
An
important
collection
of
american
art
is
part
of
the
capital
complex,
which
includes
six
congressional
office
buildings
and
three
library
of
congress
buildings
all
developed
in
the
19th
and
20th
centuries.

As
amended
has
authorized

Therefore,
brian
nelson
mayor
of
the
city
of
apopka
florida
do
hereby

call
upon
public
officials,
educators,

with
appropriate
ceremonies
activities
and
programs
in
witness,
whereas
whereof
I
apologize.
G
A
All
right
richard
come
on
down.
I
know
we've
had
some
some
discussions
about
clear
lake
and
the
rising
water
levels,
and
so
I
asked
richard
to
kind
of
put
together
a
couple
of
points
for
us
just
to
go
through
and
then
I
know
we
probably
got
some
folks
from
that.
Neighborhood
want
to
come
down
and
speak
about
it,
but
I
thought
let's
try
to
get
some
facts
out
there
and
then
we'll
talk
about
the
the
issue.
Thank
you
appreciate
it.
H
H
Clear
lake
is
identified
by
the
red.
You
know,
label
and
arrow.
So
clear
lake
is
a
privately
owned
lake
that
does
not
have
an
outfall.
There
is
no
pipe
or
ditch
that
connects
clear
lake
to
mud
lake
or
any
other
lake.
Like
a
lot
of
lakes
in
apopka,
it
is
a
landlocked
lake
which
means
that
it
doesn't
overflow
anywhere
when
we
get
unusually
heavy
amounts
of
rainfall.
H
Some
of
the
lakes
in
the
slide,
though,
are
not
landlocked.
Lakes
kind
of
the
the
area
over
on
the
right
hand,
kind
of
the
bottom
of
the
slide.
Where
you
see
those
blue
areas,
all
sort
of
joining
together
and
forming
one
shape,
those
are
lakes
that
do
have
an
outfall
and
those
include
lake
marshall,
upper
lake
doe,
lower
lake
doe
and
lake
witherington.
H
So
staff
has
been
aware
of
concerns
at
clear
lake
and
actually
before
the
city
bought
camp.
We,
while
there
were
concerns
with
mud
lake
and
some
of
the
other
lakes.
The
ymca
was
concerned
that
some
of
those
lakes
got
high
in
2019,
so
we've
been
researching
and
looking
into
the
area
for
a
while
on
this
slide
kind
of
summarizes
some
of
the
research
and
coordination
that
we've
done.
Of
course,
the
first
place
we
went
was
the
orange
county
lake
atlas
on
a
lot
of
lakes.
H
They
have
a
lot
of
data
on
clear
lake,
which
is
also
called
clearwater
lake,
there's
not
a
great
deal
of
data.
Someone
collected
the
lake
stage,
data
from
1971
to
1975,
but
that's
not
terribly
helpful.
I'll
talk
about
lake
watch
in
a
moment
which
is
an
opportunity
to
get
the
some
of
the
residents
to
volunteer
to
begin
to
collect
both
lake
level,
elevations
and
water
quality
data
for
for
clear
lake.
That's
a
program
put
together
through
university
of
florida
in
ifas,
it's
called
the
lake
watch
program.
H
H
Their
informal
position
on
the
matter
was
today
was
that
they
don't
believe
that
the
stage
of
clear
lake
would
warrant
an
emergency
permit
if
there
were
somewhere
to
pump
water
to
and
partially
that's
because
the
homes
in
the
subdivision
are
all
at
least
six
feet
above
the
current
lake
stages
and
then
at
the
bottom.
I
list
I
mentioned
the
coordination
with
the
lake
watch
with
the
university
of
florida,
and
I
emailed
them
today
and
asked
them
for
additional
information.
H
So
the
summary
of
the
current
conditions
is
that
clear
lake
is
a
private
landlocked
lake
with
no
outfalls
like
many
of
the
other
lakes
in
central
florida.
Right
now,
the
lakes
are
high,
we've
had
a
lot
of
rain
and
a
lot
of
isolated
heavy
thunderstorms
in
you
know
throughout
central
florida.
So
there
are
a
lot
of
lakes
that
are
unusually
high,
like
they
are
during
the
rainy
season.
H
There
is
no
practical
solution
to
pump
down
clear
lake.
I
mentioned
a
moment
ago
that
st
john's
river
water
management
district
has
already.
Let
me
know
that
if
there
were
some
place
to
pump
pump
the
water
to
another
lake,
it's
not
warranted
at
this
time
due
to
the
homes
being
six
feet
above
the
current
lake
stage.
D
H
Well,
clear
lake
right
now
again,
I'm
working
with
the
assumption
that
the
the
project
that
was
built
before
my
time
here
with
apopka
was
built
in
accordance
with
the
plan
and
they're,
usually
very,
very
close,
based
on
that
information
of
the
elevation
of
the
playground
relative
to
the
hundred
year,
we're
about
a
foot
away
from
the
100-year
stage
in
clear
lake
roughly
right
now.
Okay,.
D
H
So
when
that
lake
gets
high,
it
actually
flows
under
436
and
flows
towards
lake
cortez,
and
so
when
that
lake
gets
high
enough,
the
water
is
headed
towards
another
landlocked
lake,
which
is
lake
cortes,
which
is
at
the
bottom
of
the
hill,
and
so
that,
as
that
lake
fills
the
the
homes,
I
think
we
actually
flooded
or
someone's
garage
flooded
and
it
got
close
to
threatening
their
homes.
So
in
that
case,
over
several
of
the
last
few
years,
st
john's
has
allowed
the
city
to
to
pump
water
out
of
border
lake.
H
D
Okay,
so
my
concern
is
that
if
we
wait
till,
I
mean
effectively
we're
waiting
for
an
emergency
permit
to
damage
somebody's
property,
and
then
we
have
to
then
we'll
get
a
permit.
So
I'd
I'd
rather
not
get
to
that
point.
If
we
don't
have
to-
and
we
haven't
seen
this
is,
average
rainfall
we've
been
getting,
we
haven't
gotten
a
hurricane,
we
haven't
gotten
a
tropical
storm,
depression,
anything
and
we're
seeing
these
issues.
D
So
my
concern-
and
I
think,
anybody's
concern,
especially
those
residents
in
that
neighborhood-
is
that,
should
we
actually
get
a
real
hurricane
coming,
which
is
not
uncommon
and
not
out
of
the
ordinary?
It's
going
to
be
that
much
worse.
So
do
you
feel
that
if
we
get
just
a
cat,
one
hurricane
that
this
is
going
to
be
a
real
big
issue
for
that
neighborhood?
Do
you
think
it's
going
to
be
something
that
it's
not
going
to
damage
property.
H
Well,
at
this
time
again,
the
lake
would
have
to
rise
at
least
six
feet
to
affect
the
actual
finish
floor,
elevations
of
the
homes.
So
what
engineers
design
subdivisions
they're
focused
on
keeping
the
homes
from
becoming
flooded
yards
flood
during
heavy
rainfall
events,
sometimes
roadways
flood
up
to
and
over
the
crown
of
the
roadway.
H
D
D
I
don't
have
that
education
or
knowledge
or
experience
and-
and
I
kind
of
rely
on
you
to
tell
me
here's
what
we
can
do
to
at
least
help
make
the
residents
feel
a
little
more
comfortable.
Let
them
know
that
this
is
something
that
is
slowing
it
down
to
some
capacity,
something
or
at
least
speeding
the
process
up
one
way
or
the
other.
So
I
would
kind
of
ask
you
to
provide
us
with
something
it's
tough.
The
answer
I
don't
like
is.
D
D
You
guys
didn't
cheer
oaks.
You
guys
came
up
with
a
great
plan
there
and
you
guys
are
implementing
it,
and
that
was
great.
So
if
we
can,
I
know
that's
a
totally
different
scenario,
but
it
is
a
water
issue.
So
if
we
can
find
something
similar
or
you
guys
are
you
guys
have
a
lot
more
experience
and
knowledge
on
this.
So
I
know
you
guys
can
come
up
with
something.
H
Yeah
and
we'll
continue
to
coordinate
internally
and
and
coordinate
with
the
saint
johns
river
water
management
district,
and
if,
if
anyone
has
some
idea,
that's
that
that's
feasible
that
we
could
explore
we'll
be
happy
to,
but
right
now
it's
a
landlocked
lake.
It's
raining
a
lot!
We're
not
aware
of
anything
that
we
can
do
other
than
wait
for
that
situation.
To
get
better
again,
it's
six
feet,
so
most
hurricanes
at
the
most
would
drop.
H
D
In
the
lake
and
the
homes,
the
problem
is
this
isn't
a
I
mean
it's
just
starting
to
become
an
issue
because
of
all
those
other
developments
that
are
coming
to
play.
So
I
don't
know
if
we
can.
We
have
avian
point,
that's
still
being
developed
in
having.
I
don't
know
how
many
hundreds
of
units
that
are
coming
online
here
shortly,
if
we
can,
because
they're
still
kind
of
in
the
phase
of
development,
if
we
can
create
more
ponds
over
there
on
their
properties
to
help
offset.
D
H
A
H
Sir
yeah
and
all
of
the
three
subdivisions
that
have
developed
around
clear
lake,
all
of
them
met
all
of
the
the
state
st
john's
river
water
management
regulations,
and
is
I
wasn't
here
at
the
time,
but
I
assumed
they
met
also
the
city
water
management
regulations.
I've
looked
into
some
of
the
detail
of
that
and
they
they
appear
to
be
designed,
like
all
subdivisions
are
and
yeah,
so
it
would.
The
idea
is
to
prevent
stage
increases
in
clear
lake,
any.
A
D
I
think
that's
the
problem
that
we're
dealing
with
right
now,
avian
point
I
drove
over
there.
Their
pawns
are
filling
it's
basically
one
big
lake.
Now
all
their
retention
ponds
are
basically
one
level
with
clear
lake,
same
thing
with
clear
lake
estates.
It's
the
same
thing
so
they're
not
doing.
I
guess
what
they're
intended,
and
maybe
it
just
was
playing
differently,
and
we
have
possibly
newer
things
that
we
need
to
to
add,
but
those
are
all
full.
So
so,
although
those
were
designed
properly
or
they
were
designed
to
spec
they're,
not
functioning.
D
F
H
Well,
I
I
guess
I'm
an
engineer.
I
guess
I
could
imagine
building
a
sandbag
wall,
but
the
fact
is
that
the
water
is
six
feet
below
them,
so
you
would
need
six
or
seven
feet
of
sandbags.
I
guess
so.
I've
never
seen
that
okay
before,
but
if
folks
want
sandbags
and
if
it
makes
them
feel
better
or
then
we're
happy
to
provide
sandbags,
we're.
F
Available,
yes,
ma'am,
okay,
and
what
are
we
planning?
I
mean
whose
responsibilities,
because
I
I
remember
visiting
that
location,
I
believe
it
was
2015
or
16
and
at
that
time
the
flooding
was
already
there
and
there
was,
I
don't
know,
probably
about
40
trees
that
were
underwater
the
roots,
so
who
would
be
responsible
for
kind
of
eliminating
those
trees
and
actually
that
little
park?
That's
there
serves
no
function
to
that
community
because
it's
really
underwater.
H
B
So
I
mean,
I
think,
that's
that
can
give
some
measure
of
comfort
knowing,
even
though
it's
yes
it's
you
know,
you
hate
to
see
the
pictures
of
their
the
playground,
these
different
things,
but
if
they're
built
below
that
floodplain,
you
know
they
are
being
affected.
I'm
I'm
curious
to
know
why
that
was
possibly
allowed
at
that
point.
It's
okay,
it's
not
their
dwellings,
but
you
know
we
do
have
a
significant
amount
of
of
inches
that
would
have
to
increase
again
to
reach
that
place.
B
So
I
think,
to
give
a
little
bit
of
comfort
to
the
homeowners
that
you
know,
one
big
storm
isn't
going
to
be
flooding
their
homes
at
this
point.
At
the
same
time,
we
always
need
to
be
looking
at
options
to
know.
If
so,
basically,
the
way
this
was
stated,
if
we
got
to
an
emergency
place
where
they
did,
where
st
john's
did
approve
emergency
measures,
would
we
be
able
to
port
it
over
to
some
of
the
surrounding
neighborhoods,
because
they're
supposed
to
keep
it
on
their
own?
B
H
H
Was
that
we're
not
just
pat
we're,
not
just
moving
a
flooding
problem
from
here
to
somewhere
else,
and
so
I
know,
there's
a
lot
of
residents
and
actually
some
of
them
are
within
and
very
close
to
the
floodplain
in
that
chain
of
lakes,
lake
marshall,
upper
lake
doe,
lower
lake
doe.
All
that
discharge
is
over
by
boy
scout
road
and
there's
some
folks
over
there
that
are
that
are
very
low
that
I'm
sure
wouldn't
want
more
water
into
that
system.
B
K
A
And
it,
and
it's
one
of
the
things
that
we
go
back
and
forth,
but
you
know
I'm
kind
of
a
an
opponent
as
an
against
drainage
wells,
because
drainage
wells
basically
put
whatever
surface
water
is
down
to
the
aquifer
and
at
stop.
You
know
if
we
talk
about
water
quality
and,
unfortunately,
when
you,
when
water
quantity
becomes
a
problem,
it's
one
of
the
only
ways
to
get
water
out
of
a
region
not
out
of
a
one
small
lake
and
that
so
that's
the
the
challenge
we
have.
Is
you
know
how
do
you?
A
A
A
I
mean,
I
know
we're
trying
to
find
orange
county
was
trying
to
find
the
drainage
well
there
at
4
36
when
they
they
widened
it.
They
couldn't
find
it.
It's
not
just
you
know
and
so
orange
county
kind
of
threw
in
the
towel
on
whether
we
we
replaced
that
we
tried
to
get
them
to.
Let
us
replace
the
drainage.
Well,
that
would
is
gone.
We
also
have
one
there
on
piedmont.
M
Shantae
jemison
1186
tallow,
road,
apopka
florida
32703
good
afternoon,
mayor
nelson
and
commissioners.
My
name
is
shante
jemison.
I
am
the
president
and
ceo
of
reimagined
communities,
we're
a
non-profit
here
in
apopka
florida
and
I'm
here
today
a
little
nervous,
but
I'm
here
today
to
discuss
some
initiatives
that
we
have
coming
up
with
our
students
for
this
academic
school
year.
The
first
initiative
is
our
aok
literacy
program.
This
program
was
started
during
the
summer.
It
was
a
virtual
reading
sessions
for
our
students
and
we
averaged
about
250
to
over
a
thousand
views
per
session.
M
So
it
was
a
really
good
initiative.
The
parents
and
the
students
really
got
involved
and
rallied
behind
us
and
we're
taking
it
to
another
level
this
year,
so
we're
going
to
introduce
monthly
interactive,
live
reading
sessions
within
different
locations
within
our
city
and
we've
already
scheduled
our
first
one
for
october
it'll
be
a
pajama
party
night
at
the
museum
at
our
apopka
museum.
So
we
will
host
not
only
the
virtual
ones,
but
the
in
live
session
ones.
We
also
will
be
hosting
our
creative
kids
service
club.
M
This
service
club
is
focused
on
community,
giving
back
the
students
giving
back
and
when
we
think
about
community
service,
we
normally
think
about
high
school
students
or
college
age
students.
Well,
we
decided
that
we're
going
to
get
our
students
that
are
in
middle
school
a
chance
to
learn
to
give
back
to
their
communities,
and
we
think
that's
very
important
because
now
we're
giving
these
students
the
sense
of
knowing
that
they
too
can
contribute
to
our
communities
and
they'll,
be
community
service
oriented
pro
projects
within
the
city,
our
first
ones.
M
They
will
be
making
ornaments
for
the
elderly
in
our
community,
and
so
the
reason
that
we're
here
is
because
tonight
we're
asking
that
the
city
would
allow
us
to
have
three
free
libraries,
the
little
libraries
within
the
city
limits,
and
we
don't
want
to
purchase
these
libraries.
We
want
the
community
to
really
come
together
and
help
us
so
we've
already
partnered
with
the
apopka
fire
department,
they're
going
to
help
us
build
one
of
the
free
libraries,
ami
kids
students
for
one
of
their
service
projects.
They
are
going
to
build
these
libraries.
M
So
not
only
will
these
kids
be
able
to
go
and
get
free
books
if
they
don't
have
transportation
to
the
local
libraries,
but
these
libraries
will
be
built
by
people
in
our
communities
for
our
students
we're
also
asking
for
space
for
a
free
seed
library.
This
will
be
the
first
one
in
central
florida
and
we're
asking
for
that
to
go
along
with
our.
M
I
promise
gardens
initiative,
and
most
of
you
guys
know
about
that,
because
you've
all
taken
the
pledge
with
our
students
and
it
will
be
a
seed
library
where
they
can
go
and
get
free
seed
packets.
So
we
are
promoting
healthy
eating
for
our
students
and
those
parents
or
families
that
cannot
afford
to
go
out
and
buy
those
things
they
can
learn
how
to
grow
them
in
their
homes.
M
We're
asking
that
the
city
council
would
continue
to
assist
us
meeting
our
financial
goals
and
potentially
partnering
with
us
to
raise
fifteen
thousand
dollars
for
these
two
programs
throughout
the
academic
school
year.
I've
presented
a
budget
for
each
of
you
and
it's
an
itemized
budget
that
you
guys
have
and
we
will
fundraise
for
the
rest
of
the
amounts.
But
we
would
like,
for
you
guys
to
consider
partnering
with
us
and
also
donate
it
or
reduce
space
for
our
creative
kids
club
for
us
to
go
and
make
the
ornaments
for
our
senior
citizens.
M
We
would
love
to
sit
and
talk
with
you
guys
about
it
more.
I'm
super
excited
about
what
we're
doing
in
our
community.
We
will
have
the
first
seed
library
and
apopka
also
has
the
first
read
around
the
city.
So
what
we're
doing
here
with
our
students
in
our
community
is
amazing,
and
I
hope
you
guys
just
consider
partnering
with
us
to
continue
to
do
more.
Thank
you.
D
F
F
M
F
M
The
creative
kids
club,
and
so
we
will
meet
once
a
month
and
work
on
a
project
every
quarter
and
so
october
november,
and
then
we
will
present
them
in
december.
So
we
work
with
our
schools
to
get
the
students
that
participate,
so
we
work
hand
in
hand
with
our
schools,
especially
with
our
literacy
program.
We
work
with
the
media
specialists
in
our
librarians
there
in
their
book
clubs
to
try
to
promote
because
they
already
have
the
current
programming
right.
M
So
how
do
you
get
a
child
that
doesn't
like
to
read
to
read
so
you
make
it
fun
and
interactive
and
kind
of
think
outside
of
the
box?
We
can
have
100
programs
if
they
don't
want
to
read,
doesn't
really
matter
so
we're
coming
in
and
saying
hey.
We
want
to
assist
you
to
take
your
program
to
the
next
level
and
bring
in
our
communities
to
help
our
schools.
F
M
Club
so
now
the
creative
kids
clubs,
we
don't
want
to
make
it
sectioned
off
for
different
schools,
we're
inviting
all
schools
to
a
centralized
location.
So
let's
say
if
we
did
it
at
the
vfw
on
a
saturday,
then
all
of
the
kids
that
sign
up
can
come
out
to
the
vfw
on
that
saturday
and
we'll
begin
making
the
ornaments
for
our
elderly
people,
and
then
we
will
do
it
for
each
quarter.
It's
a
different
project
for
the
students.
F
M
So
every
month
they
will
have
an
in-person
session
and
a
virtual
session
that
students
can
attend
to
continue
them
reading
throughout
the
academic
school
year.
And
so
it's
like
a
city-wide
virtual
book
club.
If
you,
if
you
will
and
all
students
any
elementary
school
throughout
the
city
of
apopka,
they
can
participate
in
it.
So
we're
bringing
all
those
kids
together
in
a
centralized
location
to
do
a
live
reading
session.
M
F
All
right
I'll
take
more
time,
because
I
know
that
you've
run
these
programs
successfully.
I
certainly
have
participated
in
them.
I'm
just
wondering
how
we're
going
to
incorporate
as
the
school
year
is
now
active
and
a
lot
of
the
students
are
already
in
support
programs
that
sometimes
takes
them
after
school
during
school,
and
so
at
the
same
time,
I
don't
want
to
kind
of
discourage
that
one
child
who's
already
kind
of
struggling
and
in
different
programs
in
the
school
support
programs,
and
then
we
come
along
and
we
like
giving
them
another
program.
M
Yes,
so
we
we
work
really
closely
with
our
schools,
especially
on
those
schools
that
have
after
school
programs.
So
for,
let's
say
if
a
student
has
banned
on
wednesday
and
we're
offering
in
a
live
reading
session
on
wednesday,
they
can
also
go
online
after
they
finish
their
band
practice
to
also
engage
and
we'll
have
games
online.
We
don't
want
to
leave
any
student
out,
so
it's
a
hybrid
experience,
they
can
come
live
in
person
or
they
can
also
go
to
the
website
and
participate
in
it
as
well.
Okay,
yes,
thank
you.
B
Yeah,
congratulations
and
thanks
to
you,
this
is
tremendous.
Obviously,
literacy
is
key
because
when
kids
miss
that
and
then
they
just
keep
building
on
it,
it
really
puts
them
behind
so
definitely
worthwhile.
The
the
space
for
the
three
libraries
do
you
already
have
something
where
you
want
those
located
and
and
have
you
already
worked
with
staff,
or
how
do
you
want
to
approach
that.
M
We
have
not
the
gerald
maynard
from
the
fire
department
offered
to
allow
us
to
put
one
near
fire
station
one
and
they
would
actually
build
it,
but
we
do
not
have
the
spaces
for
the
other
three.
We
would
like
them
to
be
scattered
throughout
the
city
so
that
all
students,
no
matter
what
part
of
a
pop
could
they
live
in.
They
will
have
access
to
so
anywhere,
centralized
we're
open
to
wherever
you
all
say
that
it's
feasible.
B
B
M
Yes,
I
was
trying
to
keep
it.
You
know
within
my
four
minutes,
so
I
wanted
to
be
very
vague,
but
I
would
love
to
sit
with
each
of
you
whenever
time
permits
and
I
can
go
over
in
detail-
we
have
the
program
laid
out
for
the
academic
school
year
with
all
of
the
costs
associated
with
it,
and
I
would
love
to
just
go
more
into
detail
with
you
all.
B
A
K
K
D
Yeah
I
we've
spoken
ample
on
this
and
I
absolutely
love
everything
that
you're
doing.
I
think
your
programs
meet
kids
where
they're
at,
I
think
that's
the
most
important
thing.
Is
they
you're
not
having
you?
They
don't
have
to
come
to
you
you're,
coming
to
them
to
meet
them,
where
they're
at
to
be
able
to
educate
them.
That
way,
and
as
a
student
that
didn't
like
reading
this
is
really
important.
D
One
thing
and
I've
told
you
that
many
times
the
seed
program,
I
think,
is
absolutely
incredible:
being
able
to
teach
people
how
to
grow
their
own
food.
Absolutely
incredible,
and
I
think
it's
generally
it
can
change
generations
so
and-
and
I
I
think,
having
it
here
right
next
to
station
one
on
city
hall,
property,
absolutely
incredible,
perfect
idea,
it's
a
safe
location,
well
lit
easily
accessible.
I
think
it
makes
all
the
sense
in
the
world.
So,
however,
we.
D
A
M
I
Dennis
knew
105
west
magnolia
street
apopka
florida
32703.
I've
come
here
tonight
to
talk
about
a
couple
things
I'm
going
to
make
them
as
quick
as
I
can.
I'm
going
to
start
with
some
words
we
elected
you
guys
to
represent
us.
I've
said
this
before
not
to
rule
us,
and
I
don't
think
the
problem
is
sitting
up
here.
Necessarily
the
bureaucracy
causes
an
issue.
I
I've
been
watching
the
code
enforcement
hearings
and
we're
taking
tax,
paying
residents
of
the
city
to
code
enforcement
hearings
for
things
like
a
roof
that
needs
repair
or
a
tarp
on
their
roof
or
graffiti
on
their
fence
or
their
grass
being
too
tall,
and
I've
mentioned
it
here
before
we
got
a
building
out
there
at
the
lake
apopka
wildlife
drive
covered
in
graffiti,
which
is
specifically
against
the
kitty,
the
city
code.
We
got
the
conley
property,
the
grass
in
the
backyard
is
still
shoulder
high.
I
I
So
the
words
I
want
to
use
are
hypocrisy,
mismanagement,
malfeasance
misfeasance,
or
is
it
just
hypocrisy
and
poor
management
we're
beating
up
the
taxpayers
over
something
that
the
city
is
not
fixing
on
their
own
buildings?
I
I've
heard
it
before
it's
a
budget
issue.
The
building
that
I'm
talking
about
in
the
forest
avenue
complex
has
been
like
that
for
at
least
six
years.
I
I
Here,
never
have
I
seen
laurel
street
flood
it's
a
county
street,
so
nobody
really
cares,
but
we
put
a
newfangled
drainage
box
over
there
for
some
reason
and
now,
when
it
rains
laurel
street
floods
because
the
water
backs
up
because
that
new
box
they
put
in
backs
it
up,
so
somebody
came
and
had
to
dig
a
bypass,
ditch
around
the
fancy
bypass
box
that
I
think
we
paid
hundreds
of
thousands
of
dollars
to
install
to
get
the
water
off
of
laurel
street.
Okay.
I
The
map
the
fella,
put
up
about
the
clear
lake
incident
I'll
contest
that
there
was
a
ditch
in
the
1970s
when
they
repaved
the
road
out
front.
They
took
out
the
outfall
pipe
that
used
to
go
across
the
street
in
the
mud
lake
and
from
mud
lake.
It
went
through
a
ditch
that
was
maintained
for
years
by
the
boy
scouts
until
the
ymca
took
it
over
and
they
stopped
taking
care
of
it
and
it
leaves
and
debris
and
trees
and
everything
fell.
I
And
now
it's
typical
level,
the
same
with
lake
shepherd
there's
a
ditch
out
of
the
back
of
lake
shepherd
that
goes
to
upper
doe
and
lower
doe,
and
then
on
to
lake
marshall.
The
ditch
is
plugged
up.
Nobody
cleans
it
out
so
water's
backing
up
because
through
individual
times-
and
you
guys
may
not
know
about
it
and
I'm
sure
the
city
engineer
doesn't
know
about
it.
But
I
used
to
frog
gig
in
those
ditches
with
my
dad
and
my
uncles
and
my
cousin,
the
ditches
were
there,
the
outflow
pipes
were
there.
I
So
there
is
an
outfall
problem
at
clear
lake
there's
an
engineering
problem
somewhere
in
the
city
because
now
we're
flooding
laurel
street
and
when
you
ask
somebody
from
the
city
about
it,
they
shrug
their
shoulders
and
say:
well,
that's
a
county
road.
The
county
didn't
put
in
that
damn
box
the
city
did
and
now
laurel
street
floods.
I
So
the
last
thing
is
on
the
code
enforcement
issue.
Why
doesn't
code
enforcement
enforce
the
code
against
city-owned
properties?
That's
kind
of
hypocritical,
then
I
realized
the
other
day
when
they
came
back
to
my
house
to
reinspect
it,
because
I
got
everything
cleaned
up
five
years.
I've
had
a
trailer
in
my
backyard
off
and
on
it's
a
tandem,
axle,
enclosed
trailer.
I
I
see
the
light,
but
I'm
going
to
finish
tonight.
The
code
enforcement
officer
took
it
upon
himself
to
ordain
it
a
commercial
vehicle.
Now
you
know
I
ain't
got
a
lot
to
do
with
a
hurt
elbow,
but
I
did
look
up
commercial
vehicles
in
the
city
code
and
other
than
having
a
tandem
axle.
The
trailer
doesn't
fit
the
description
of
a
commercial
vehicle.
I
N
N
N
A
A
N
N
N
N
N
N
You
need
to
come
and
see
about
your
parents,
they,
elderly
parents,
I'm
a
senior
citizen.
I
know
I
look
good,
but
I'm
a
senior
citizen,
but
is
that
a
problem
that
you're
not
taking
care
of
the
seniors
out
there?
And
I
don't
know
what
the
button
means.
I
have
to
talk,
I'm
sorry,
but
I
will
not
stand
by
and
tell-
and
you
guys
tell
me
and
and
and
richard
tells
me,
you
cannot
drain
that
lake.
You
can
drain
that
lake
in
mud
lake.
It's
clear,
it's
nothing
in
there,
no
water,
you
can
drain
it.
N
The
only
reason
why
you
may
not
drain
it
is
because
of
the
toxics
that
we
have
in
claire
lake.
So
we
are
not
going
to
stand
by.
You
probably
need
to
hire
outside
source
and
I'm
going
to
sit
down
in
a
few
minutes.
Lemonette
knowledges,
which
is,
can
study
the
inland
waters
and
john
osborne,
who
has
a
degree
in
studying
that
from
you
ucf
and
get
somebody
out
there.
That
can
really
know
what
we
do
and
don't
tell
me
richard
that
we
don't
have
a
place
out
there,
mud
lake
we
want
to
drain.
N
N
Yes,
good
do
something
diane
and
and
and
this
young
man
over
here
nick
has
been
out
there
plenty
of
times
so
hire
outsource.
Everything
you'll
get
some
answers,
then,
because
if
richard
don't
have
the
answers,
I
bet
you
any
amount
of
money.
You
can
outsource
it
and
get
answers
and
we
demand
at
clear
lake
estates
and
for
the
clear
lake
landings
we
demand
answers.
O
O
O
O
O
O
O
So
what
I'm
telling
you
tonight
is
that
anything
short
of
real
signing
the
police
chief,
mr
d,
a
fire
chief
you're,
falling
short
of
what
we,
what
we
elected
you
to
do
and
that's
to
put
our
safety
first
in
this
city,
anything
short
of
real
signing,
the
fire
chief.
You
are
letting
the
city
down
now
with
four
minutes.
O
I
can't
break
everything
down,
but
I
have
never
addressed
this
podium
and
not
speak
from
the
heart
and
not
speak
from
experience
and
some
of
the
things
I
have
said
before.
Mayor
procedures,
matters,
rules,
matters,
ethics
matter,
matters,
character,
matters.
If
you
had
to
listen.
We
probably
wouldn't
be
in
this
situation
right
now,
but
you
look
at
I
looked
at
the
report.
I
think
it
was
apopka
critic.
O
O
Don't
pat
me
on
the
back
and
tell
me
how
great
I
am
and
then
don't
support
me
when
you
know
I'm
in
need
when
you
know
I'm
crying
out
for
help
and
if
I
say
something
I
know,
I'm
gonna
lose
my
job
retaliation,
I'm
not
speaking
for
things
that
I
don't
know
about
or
having
experience,
I'm
speaking
for
first-hand
knowledge
been
there
and
done
that
so
mayor
almost
say
again
anything
short
and
I'm
not
calling
from
from
for
his
resignation,
because
sometimes
you
have
to
be
careful.
Looking
on
the
outside
looking
on
the
outside.
O
A
C
L
Pam
richmond
community
development,
I'm
here
to
ask
you
to
approve
a
site
access
and
indemnification
agreement
with
hubbard
construction
company
they're,
the
construction
company.
That's
doing
the
work
out
on
us
441
right
now,
and
they
ran
into
some
problems,
finding
a
place
to
store
their
equipment
and
they
asked
us.
Could
they
please
use
this
site?
The
project
is
a
right
now,
a
267
day
project.
It's
expected
to
be
completely
done
by
the
end
of
april.
I
think
they'll
probably
be
done
a
little
earlier,
but
in
the
meantime
they
need
a
place
to
park.
A
B
A
J
Hi
mary,
jim
head
city,
community
development
director:
this
is
basically
it's
kind
of
a
two-step
process.
The
first
part,
the
first
part
that
we
are
asking,
is
to
authorize
the
the
city
procurement
process
to
negotiate
and
approve
a
contract
with
tcf
for
the
identification
of
taxpayers
that
are
delinquent
in
payment
or
attainment
of
their
business
tax
receipt
itself.
J
This
is
also
to
allow
the
city
to
negotiate
through
our
procurement
process
a
little
bit
differently
than
what
we
normally
would.
The
this
particular
company
tcf
is
a
company
that
has
worked
with
quite
a
few
different
cities,
municipalities
and
corporations
in
regards
to
collecting
delinquent
fees
or
fees.
That,
basically,
are.
We
have
not
been
able
to
identify
to
go
after
in
order
to
pay
for
pay
for
their
business
tax
receipt
right
now,
the
the
person
that's
here
that
will
be
going
through
the
a
little
bit
of
a
powerpoint.
J
So
if
we
get
25,
if
we
have
this
expert
company
that
actually
can
can
collect
75
percent
for
the
city
and
they
get
25
percent,
it's
it's
a
step
in
the
right
direction.
We
simply
don't
have
staff
and
the
expertise
to
be
able
to
go
out
after
these,
after
these
companies
and
and
businesses.
In
order
to
attain
that,
we
have
basically
one
person
that
does
business
tax
receipts.
We
got
one
person
in
training
to
issue
the
business
tax
receipts
and
those
are.
J
We
are
doing
those
of
course
electronically,
sending
those
versus
printing
and
sending
them
in
the
mail.
So
the
the
main
thing
that
that
we
do
that
we
would
end
up
being
responsible
for,
is
sending
the
initial
letters
out
to
those
businesses
to
let
them
know
that
they
are.
They
do
need
to
pay
these
fees
and
at
that
point,
that's
where
we
would
collect
the
effect
of
funds.
A
A
J
J
A
C
Q
Q
Thank
you
for
giving
me
the
opportunity
here.
I
appreciate
and
very
nice
to
meet
all
of
you.
So
my
business
is
17
years
old,
we've
been
I'm
sorry.
Yeah
we've
been
working
for
the
last
17
years,
we'll
be
working
with
assisting
all
type
of
government
agencies
from
federal
state,
county
and
municipalities,
and
the
main
business
is
what
we
do
is
disaster
preparedness
response
and
recovery.
Q
Upon
I
mean
during
these
years
we
had.
I
was
approached
by
one
of
the
recorders
in
west
virginia.
They
called
them,
which
is
the
technical
clerk
in
florida
over
here
and
there
to
assist
them
in
collecting
their
taxes.
We
developed
the
technology
to
do
that
and
when
I
moved
back
to
florida,
I
noticed
that
there's
the
same
problem,
so
we
applied
that
technology
to
florida
and
that's
how
we
were
able
to
identify
these
issues.
Q
So
I
want
to
bring
your
attention
to
the
slide
in
front
of
you
and
in
particular,
a
person
definition
of
a
person
based
on
florida
statute,
chapter
205-
and
this
includes
all
of
these-
that's
individuals,
firms,
corporations,
trust
business
trusts
and
so
on
and
so
forth.
That
is
a
very
important
piece
of
information.
Q
The
second
part
is
this
is
from
the
ordinance
of
the
city
of
apopka,
chapter
66.
It
says
no
person,
as
defined
previously,
shall
be,
shall
engage
in
or
manage
any
type
of
business
without
paying
their
business
tax
receipt.
As
the
mayor
said
before
2007,
it
used
to
be
known
as
the
occupational
license,
so
so
the
goal
of
this
project
is
to
assist
you
in
identifying
individuals
and
businesses
that
are
not
paying
their
business
tax
receipt.
Q
Quite
honestly,
I
look
at
it
as
not
a
tax,
but
a
fee
for
an
inventory
of
who
is
doing
what,
where
within
the
jurisdiction
of
the
city.
So
it's
really
very
simple.
It's
helpful
for
everyone
for
the
fire
department,
police
department,
code
enforcement,
zoning
for
every
department
within
the
city
itself,
so
it
is
very
beneficial
and
based
on
data,
which
we
will
show
any
in
this
chart
over
here.
Q
So
what
you
see
over
here
is,
if
I
bring
your
attention
to
this
box
over
here,
comparative
increase
so
based
on
the
data
from
the
state.
The
growth
of
number
of
corporations,
just
number
of
corporations
alone
within
the
city's
jurisdiction,
is
270
percent
between
1990
and
2020.,
while
the
growth
in
btr
fees,
revenue
has
gone
up,
19,
that's
data.
This
is
not
studies.
This
is
not
a
professor
saying
something.
This
is
real
data,
and
these
are
the
companies
that
are
currently
operating
between
1990
and
2020.
The
ones
that
are
currently
active
are
4122.
Q
out
of
that
number.
864
of
them
only
are
paying
for
business
tax
receipt
so
going
after
them
is
not
going
after
them
in
a
bad
way.
We
just
we
notice
that
the
majority
70
percent
of
the
companies
individuals
that
not
pay
their
business
extra
seat.
They
just
do
not
know
that
they're
supposed
to
pay
it
they're,
not
just
they're,
not
trying
to
cheat.
They
really
do
not
know.
So
it's
more
educational
out
of
the
800
864.
Q
So
if
you
look
at
this
example
of
revenue,
average
revenue
per
entity
or
individuals
that,
based
on
the
revenue
that
the
city
has
been
collecting
for
the
last
several
years
or
many
years,
is
about
100
per
taxpayer,
so
based
on
these
numbers
with
8
000
delinquent
you're,
looking
with
our
fees
without
penalty
is
six
hundred
thousand
dollars
in
revenue
with
penalty.
If
we
charge
them
because
you're
supposed
to
charge
them
up
to
twenty-five
percent
in
penalty
per
year,
that
would
be
eight
hundred
thousand
dollars.
So
it
doesn't
come
out
of
you
know
you
get.
Q
Q
It
also
goes
by
size,
type
or
both
of
which
and
that's
all
from
chapter
205
of
florida
statutes
or
chapter
66
of
the
city
of
apopka
ordinance,
and
the
benefits
is
number
one:
you're,
not
raising
any
taxes.
You're
just
collecting
taxes,
you
know
you're
enforcing
the
law.
You
know
it
is
the
law
number
two:
is
it
enhances
compliance
with
city
ordinance,
because
now
the
war
spreads
out
and
people
start
become
more
and
more
compliant
and
number
three.
Q
A
F
F
F
G
Q
F
G
Q
Q
Q
F
Okay,
I
I
still
don't
understand
this
business
kind
of
sure.
It
is
so
product
that
you're
trying
to
present
to
us,
because
for
me,
as
there's,
got
to
be
a
staff
on
in
city
hall
to
now
follow
up
with
this.
So
now
he
brings
us
and
I'm
just
going
to
say
he
said
he
found
six
thousand
he's
not
going
to
bring
us
6
000
businesses
that
somehow
our
city
staff
has
to
keep
track
of
on
top
of
the
ones
we
already
have.
Commissioner,.
G
What
will
happen
is
so
if
he
comes
back
with
6
000,
I
think
the
number
is
high.
I
don't
think
it
will
be
at
me,
but
if
he
comes
back
with
6
000,
what
he
will
give
us
is
the
information
that
we
can
import
into
our
system
to
bill
those
business
tax.
So
most
of
the
work
will
be
done
in
our
system.
Yeah.
We
will
have
to
mail
them
out,
but
they
will.
G
I
I'm
my
understanding
if
they
won't
all
come
at
one
time,
he
will
give
us
500
or
he
will
give
us
300
as
he
finds
them.
We
will
put
them
in
our
system
to
make
sure
we
have
them
going
forward,
but
we
will
also
bill
them
at
that
time
or
with
an
isolator
we'll
follow
up
with
saying
you
haven't
paid
your
cap,
your
business
tax.
Now
please
remit
your
business
tax,
so
we
plan
to
to
go
back
we're
trying
to
get
these
people
on
track
going
forward.
G
G
Q
You
know
absolutely,
but
if
you
want
to
go
by
the
letter
of
the
law,
which
is
pretty
much
as
dictated
in
every
profession
and
there's
467
professions
within
the
state,
every
profession
has
to
get
a
license
from
the
state
right
right,
so
they
do
have
to
pay.
For
that.
License
was
every
two
years,
so
it
doesn't
matter
whether
they
make
money
or
do
not
make
money.
They
still
have
to
get
that
license.
Okay,.
N
F
F
F
G
G
So
what
this
means
is,
if
we
submit
if
we
find
someone
that
doesn't
have
a
business
tax,
it
should
and
we
submit
them
a
rares
or
receipts
to
pay
your
business
ads
if
they
elect
not
to
pay
that
tax.
Once
we've
notified
them
and
they've
delayed
that
payment
for
months
and
don't
contact
us,
they
will
be
assessed.
The
penalty.
G
C
F
J
J
I
ran
a
business
for
for
11
years
and
I
knew
about
an
occupational
license
for
for
that,
and
it
was
a
small
business.
Anybody
that
operates
or
gets
a
corporation
and
is
conducting
business
or
wants
to
hold
on
to
that
license.
So
they
could
eventually
do
it.
Even
that's.
That's
not
necessarily
all
of
these.
C
J
J
G
F
I'm
I'm
understanding
this
and
I
I
get
it,
but
I
feel
that
every
year,
if
we
renew
that
contract
that
it
should
come
before
us,
so
this
way
the
taxpayers
know
how
we
are
hiring
this
company
to
help
us
get
tax
receipts.
I
think
that
that's
fair,
it's
for
me.
It's
it's
transparency,
just
it's
not
a
service
like
the
waste
management
or
the
other
that
we
realize
it's
a
sole
proprietor
that
we
can
keep
renewing
and
they
don't
have
to
come
before
the
city
taxpayers,
but
I
feel
it.
F
This
is
sort
of
like
a
collection
agency
type.
I
feel
that
it
should
come
before
us
at
the
end
of
each
year.
I
that's
how
I
feel
so
this
way
we
have
an
idea
of
how
much
you're
collecting
and
it's
all
the
service
is
his
service,
something
that
we
want
to
continue
in
a
partnership
with
him
is
that
fair.
J
G
Me
let
me
let
me
address
why
don't
we
do
this
commissioners?
So
why
don't
we?
Why
don't
we
do
the
first
year?
Let's
do
the
first
year,
let's
see
what
right
what
he
has
and
let's
bring
back
to
you
when
he's
finished,
let's
bring
the
findings
back
to
you.
Okay,
I
think
it's
important
so
we'll
have
him
do
the
first
year
we'll
bring
the
findings
back
to
you,
because
at
the
end
of
the
day,
you
need
to
know
how
much
revenue
he
found.
That's
important.
F
G
K
A
Same
with
the
water
bills,
they
should
be
yeah
shouldn't
have
had
any
water
bills
not
being
paid
too.
I
mean,
I
don't
disagree
with
you
and
that's
that's
the
reason
we
want
to
capture
those
ones
because
after
we've
lost
them,
we
can't
we
don't
have
the
means
to
find
them
like
he
does.
You
know
he's
going
into
the
barbershop.
If
you
have
to,
if
you're
a
licensed
barber,
you
have
to
go,
get
a
license
from
tallahassee.
A
We
don't
have
the
the
resources
to
go,
find
all
the
barbers
that
are
licensed
in
apopka.
We
don't
have
the
time
to
go,
find
out
all
the
the
engineers,
the
architects,
the
you
know,
any
of
those
professional
services
that
that
mr
nasser
does
that.
That's
what
he's
he's
going
to
the
state
records
and
federal
records
where
they
have
to
be
to
get
their
license,
federal
state
licenses
and
say:
okay,
oh
now
he
matches
that
up
with
city
of
apopka
and
says
oh
you're
in
the
city
of
apopka.
Why
aren't
you
paying
your
btr.
Q
Q
For
it
is
this
fair
too:
that's
for
some
of
the
taxpayers,
because
a
lot
of
good
taxpayers
are
paying
for
jesus.
I'm
sorry,
a
lot
of
taxpayers
are
paying
the
dues
and
they're
coming
on
their
own,
but
when
others
do
not
pay-
and
there
is
a
budget
requirement
for
the
fire
department,
the
police
department
and
other
departments,
someone
has
to
pay
the
difference.
So
is
it
fair
for
some
taxpayers
not
pay
their
portion
and
get
the
benefit
while
others
pay
and
not
get
the
benefit?
I
tell
you
very
honestly:
I'm
a
taxpayer.
Q
I
pay
my
property
taxes,
I
pay
for
the
school.
I've
never
had
children,
I
don't
plan
to
have
children
and
I
probably
will
never
get
children
but
in
either
because
I'm
not
married.
That's
the
reason
one
thing,
but
so
the
point
is
that
fairness
exists
from
both
sides.
So
it's
something!
I
would
appreciate
that
you
would
consider
in
your
decision.
D
D
Q
Mean
it
does
a
long
time
ago.
It's
it's
shocking
to
underscore
it.
It
was
overtime,
it's
shocking
concept.
When
you
look
at
this
chart
that
I
have
in
front
of
you,
it
is
really
shocking,
but
this
is
data.
This
is
real
companies
that
have
renewed
their
businesses
every
year
with
the
state.
This
data
was
renewed.
Last
may.
Q
Absolutely
just
within
the
I
mean
this
data
is
as
of
november
20th.
I
have
another.
I
mean
this
set
the
new
set
data-
that's
not
incorporated
in
this
chart,
because
I
I
don't
like
to
mix
two
things
together:
okay,
it's
the
the
state
added
over
453
000
companies
in
the
last
nine
months.
Only
so
it
is
a
lot
of
companies
are
coming
to
florida
and
central
florida
is
way
on
top
and
orange
county
is
over
200
000
companies
already
that
are
active.
Okay.
Q
So
but
yeah
and
the
county
is
supposed
to
pay
you
back.
The
county
is
supposed
to
pay.
You
back
your
portion
based
on
population
so
from
there
their
btr
revenue
they're
supposed
to
pay
you
back
based
on
the
53
000
citizens
that
exist
within
the
jurisdiction
or
constituents
that
exist
within
the
jurisdictions
of
this
of
the
city
of
april.
D
C
C
D
Q
D
You
know
it's
we'll
call
that
semantics
right.
It's
still
collecting
on
a
an
open
bill,
my
concern
and
having
been
on
this
opposite
side
when
I'm
a
young
entrepreneur,
you
drop
the
ball
on
some
things
every
now
and
then,
especially
when
you're
starting
a
family
things
like
that,
so
I've
gotten,
the
calls
of
you
need
to
pay
your
business
tax
license
totally
forgot
about
it.
D
I
don't
want
it
to
be
a
disincentive
to
have
a
business
in
apopka,
so
let's
say
they
started
a
business
a
year
ago,
six
months
ago,
whatever
it
may
be,
I
know
that
you
said
there's
some
leeway
time
there.
I
I'm
really
against
having
any
type
of
penalties,
be
charged.
Let's
just
collect
what
we
do
and
that's
that's
it.
Additionally,
I
don't
want
this
to
be
like
a
head
hunting
like
like
put
them
on
spheres,
and
you
it's
as
much.
They
were
saying
this
is
going
to
be
nice.
D
G
Commissioner,
here's
the
thing
you
have
to
realize:
there's
a
state
statute
that
requires
everybody
to
pay
this.
We
can't
select
few.
We
have
to
treat
everybody
the
same.
So
what
what
our
plan
is,
though,
is
when,
if,
as
they
find
them,
we
will
send
your
notice
out
just
like
we
do
everybody
else
on
a
regular
basis.
G
They
will
have
a
period
of
time
to
pay
if
they
don't
pay,
they'll
be
penalized.
Just
like
the
normal
people
would
in
the
normal
process
we're
not
going
to
go
back
and
penalize
them.
We
don't
plan
to
go
back.
We
don't
plan
to
go
back
and
collect
prior
we're
just
saying
we
found
you
you're
a
business.
Currently,
here's
what
you
owe
and
we'll
have
them
pay
that
going
forward.
So
basically,
this
is
finding
those
people
that
aren't
paying
that
may
not
know
and
bringing
them
all
in
compliance.
Basically
sure.
D
And
I'm
okay
with
that
that
doesn't
bother
me
at
all.
I
mean
I
get
it
because
to
your
point,
if
I'm
paying
it,
I
want
everyone
else
to
pay
just
as
much.
The
other
thing
that
I
do
want
to
echo,
commissioner
velazquez,
is
that
I
I
do
want
some
type
of
performance
review.
I
think
that's
very
important
because,
if
I
want
to
know
are
our
business
owners,
if
I
start
hearing
that
hey
they're
harassing
me,
I'm
getting
these
letters,
I'm
not
happy
this.
Isn't
the
nice
letter
that
I
was
told.
D
R
D
R
R
Your
credit
card
doesn't
look
at
sometimes
and
say:
oh
you're,
a
nice
guy
we're
not
going
to
charge
you
a
35,
late
fee,
you're
going
to
get
charged
a
late
fee,
and
this
is
the
same
case
here-
property
that
just
like
property
owners
have
constructive
notice.
As
to
those
rules
that
regulate
their
property,
a
business
owner
has
constructive
notice
that
they
are
subject
to
a
business
tax
receipt
that
is
subject
to
both
state
statute
and
city
and
county
ordinances
and
the
the
state
the
state
draw
provides
down
to
the
local
governments.
R
I
was
late
and
you
didn't
come
after
me
and
now
you're
precluded
for
coming
out
from
coming
after
me
from
here
forward.
That
applies
to
code
enforcement.
It's
happened
and
the
the
appellate
courts
of
florida
have
have
determined.
If
you
know,
there's
a
violation,
you
become
aware
of
a
violation
and
you
do
not
enforce
it.
R
Then
the
the
violated
door
is
subject
to
basically
having
as
a
defense.
We
can't
enforce
it
against
me
now,
because
you
knew
I
was
in
violation
and
you
didn't
come
after
me
for
the
first
time.
So
I
I'm
kind
of
being
direct
here,
because
it's
it's
you're
opening
yourself
to
selective
and
subjective
enforcement.
R
The
the
issue
you
there
and
it's
it's
scaled
based
on
time,
and
I
know
that
you,
it
was
shocked
when
you
heard
well.
We
don't
want
to
find
folks
250
dollars.
Well,
that
penalty
is
statutory.
That
penalty
is
subject
to
do
if
you
have
not
paid
your
btr
after
150
days
of
being
notified,
that
you
owe
the
money
and-
and
I
think
the
taxpayers
of
the
city
would
be
appalled
if
we
elected
well
250
is
a
lot
is
a
lot
of
money.
R
So
excuse
me,
so
it's
it's
relative.
I
don't
don't
want
to
go
into
this
avenue
of
subjective
enforcement.
It's
got
to
be
objective
across
the
board.
The
ordinance
and
the
statute
are
crystal
clear
on
how
the
how
these
are
enforced
and
the
penalties
that
are
subject
to
violations
of
both
ordinances.
I.
R
R
If
we
only
have
one
officer
to
investigate
the
entire
jurisdiction,
it
doesn't
mean
we're
not
enforcing
it.
It
means
we
haven't
gotten
to
that
to
that
point.
If
now
we
have
an
assistance
where
what
this
opens.
The
door
is
for
additional
officers
to
help
insist,
assisting
the
investigation
to
then
permit
the
enforcement
to
go
forward.
D
C
Q
P
E
Cal
becker
1388
kentler
road,
commissioner
nestor
brought
up
the
points.
It
was
just
odd
timing
because
this
was
presented
in
21,
but
nothing
was
brought
to
council.
So,
if
they're
saying
that
they
could
have
recovered
what
was
in
that
presentation
we're
talking
hundreds
of
thousands
of
dollars
that
had
been
left
on
the
table
over
the
last
year
and
a
half?
E
E
Do
the
cost
that
it
would
take
someone
to
do
it
divide
or
divide
that
number
by
0.25
and
that's
how
much
money
you've
got
to
go
and
get
to
pay
for
that
resource?
To
do
this
on
an
annual
basis
or
year
long
to
make
sure
that
we
don't
leave
this
type
of
money
on
the
table
going
forward.
So
do
that
analysis
first,
before
we
even
vote
on
this,
but
to
say
that
this
is
some
sort
of
proprietary
software
that
he's
the
only
person
that
can
do
something
like
this.

S
A
D
I
just
want
to
read
this
quick
comment.
I
know
we
were
all
giving
it,
but
let
me
just
read
it
out
loud
for
everybody.
It's
from
jim
riffle,
2536
west
pond
can
road
in
apopka.
He
says.
Dear
mayor
commissioners,
I
spoke
before
you
with
regard
to
the
mi
homes
development
at
the
first
reading.
My
concerns
remain
the
same
safety.
The
proposed
access
for
the
new
homes
producing
650
plus
new
car
trips
per
day,
is
in
a
dangerous
and
deadly
curved
area
of
poncan
road.
It
is
in
a
signalized
school
zone.
It
is
directly
opposite.
D
The
wichita
run
community
entry,
one
of
three.
It
is
an
area
prone
to
flooding
during
storms.
It
is
in
an
area
prone
to
accidents.
The
accident
pictured
is
from
last
week
at
the
proposed
access.
Should
this
development
move
forward,
you
must
find
a
way
to
mitigate
safety
issues
in
this
immediate
area.
The
traffic
impact
analysis
for
this
project
includes
a
number
of
suggestions
to
do
so.
They
favor
the
developer
but
fall
short.
In
my
opinion,
poncan
road
is
a
county
maintained
road
and
I've
addressed
my
concerns
to
our
orange
county
commissioner,
but
had
no
comment.
D
D
A
L
It
is
a
county
road
and
I
have
talked
to
orange
county
about
it.
I
have
not
accepted
the
traffic
study
yet
and
we're
going
to
work
through
this,
the
city
and
orange
county
together.
Just
like
we
work
through
all
the
issues
on
the
county
roads.
This
applicant
was
told
when
they
came
in.
You
need
to
go
to
talk
to
orange
county
about
access
because
there's
a
problem
there
there's
a
solution,
we'll
find
it.
L
F
I
mean
yeah
because
I've
reached
out
to
commissioner
moore-
and
I
do
know
that
the
transportation
gentleman
that's
in
that
is
in
charge
in
orange
county
actually
lives
in
our
city.
The
the
one
thing
that
concerns
me
is
that
before
we
move
forward
with
these
two
projects,
is
there
something
that's
going
to
come
to?
Let
us
know
that
that
road
is
being
addressed.
J

anybody
from

A
F
J
On
up
the
real
quick
is
a
is
a
real,
quick
summary
bradley
will
cover
the
basic,
the
main
information.
This
is
a
capital
improvements
program
element
for
the
city,
comprehensive
plan.
If
you
recall
about
a
year
ago,
we
went
through
the
same
type
of
program
in
order
to
amendment
to
the
comprehensive
plan
in
order
to
get
a
grant,
and
one
of
the
requirements
is
to
update
the
comprehensive
plan
with
the
capital
improvements
program
for
parks
and
recreation.
J
So,
each
year
we
go
through
this
process
to
pop
these
things
into
the
comprehensive
plan,
so
that
we
can
get
grants
to
do
different,
different
things
in
our
parks
and
recreation
system.
It
also
allows
us
to
to
formulate
all
the
different
types
of
programs
and
projects
that
we
have
in
our
products
and
recreation
department.
So
it's
a
it's
a
it's
kind
of
a
good
formulation
for
that
for
the
department
itself.
So
with
that
I'll
turn,
it.
T
Thank
you,
rad
the
williams
parks
and
rec
director
good
evening
mayor
commissioners
to
build
on
what
mr
hitt
just
described.
This
again
is
for
purposes
of
applying
for
a
ferdat
grant
a
florida
recreation
development
assistant
program
grant.
We
were
applying
for
200
thousand
dollar
matching
grant,
so
that
would
bring
the
project
up
to
400
000.
T
T
F
A
F
A
F
A
A
L
A
E
G
Mayor
resolution,
2245
is
your
budget
amendment
for
your
state
pension
dollars.
As
you
know,
every
year
we
receive
state
pension
dollars
for
police
and
fire
fund.
We
have
a
certain
period
of
time
to
get
those
into
those
pension
funds.
This
we
have
received
those
dollars.
This
is
the
amendment
to
move
those
money
into
those
funds
for
a
total
of
981
379
dollars.
A
H
C
A
D
Yeah,
so
I
got
a
couple
different
things.
I
want
to
kind
of
have
a
little
bit
of
dialogue,
a
little
feedback
from
everybody
up
here,
including
maybe
some
staff
as
well.
I
wanted
to
first
talk
about
the
noise
ordinance
or
that
I
know
we
spoke
about
weeks,
maybe
last
minute
or
whichever
meeting
it
was.
I
know
it's
specifically
a
noise
ordinances.
It's
going
to
be
very
difficult
to
enforce
things
like
that,
so
I
just
don't
want
the
conversation
to
die.
I
think
there
does
need
to
be
something
implemented.
D
D
So
there's
got
to
be
a
balance
somewhere,
and
I
just
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
kind
of
up
here,
keeping
that
in
mind
and
maybe
coming
up
with
some
unique
ways
to
fix
that
next
is
and
I'm
sure
you
guys
have
seen
it
on
social
media,
and
maybe
residents
have
contacted
you
about
it.
Car
washes
in
apopka
I'm
hearing,
that's
the
new
dollar
store,
it's
the
new,
fast
food.
D
So
I
would
ask
you
to
pull
the
recordings
from
the
previous
drc
meetings
and
not
this
weeks,
but
last
week's
the
week
before
just
listen
to
their
dialogue,
about
that.
I
think
that
would
be
really
important
to
just
hear
what
drc's
input
is
on
on
car
washes
things
like
that
again,
we
don't.
We
want
to
be
a
little
more
proactive
versus
reactive,
which
we've
done
in
the
past.
Next
I
want
to
talk
about
golden
gem
road
pam.
I
don't
mean
to
beat
this
one
anymore.
D
You
don't
need
to
get
up
or
anything
I
just
it's
it's
something
that
we
definitely
need
to
keep
in
mind.
I
know
now,
commissioner
moore
is
on
board
and
we
have
a
study.
That's
going
on
with
that
now
I
want
that
to
be
something
that
we
all
have
our
pulse
on,
so
that
we
understand.
What's
going
on
there
and
and
one
thing
too,
planning
commission
had
brought
this
up-
that
we
should
just
take.
D
The
road
now
fix
it
ourselves,
which
is
a
big
amount
of
money,
and
it's
it's
tough
to
do,
but
at
the
same
time,
on
our
website,
it
lists
on
the
planning
zoning
division
responsibilities,
ensuring
the
availability
of
adequate
infrastructure
in
school
facilities
either
we
need
to
change
that
or
do
it.
So
I
know
again
it's
it's
in
orange
county
road,
but-
and
I
know
that
commissioner
moore's
on
board
and
working
on
this-
it's
just
let's
bring
her
in
and
as
commissioners.
I
think
we
need
to
have
a
little
more
dialogue.
T
D
Commissioner,
moore
and
bringing
this
to
her
attention
and
again
more
of
a
partnership
versus
an
attack
or
finger
pointing
speaking
of
the
website
itself,
we
still
have
rock
springs
ridge
info
on
there
from
like
2019.
I
think
we
should
pull
that
off,
because
it
still
talks
about
a
land
swap
things
like
that
information.
That's
not
relevant
at
all.
I'd
like
to
clean
that
up
and
and
get
that
off
of
there.
I
think
it's
a
little
misleading.
D
I
wanted
a
reference
just
because
this
is
my
first
budget
season
that
we
went
through
and
in
what
season.
It
was
what
I
like
to
do
when
I'm
going
through
a
project
or-
and
I
finish
one-
I
know
my
wife
and
I
like
to
do
this-
is
we
do
what's
called
a
swot
analysis?
We
go
over
our
strengths.
What
do
we
do
great
through
this
process?
What
were
our
weaknesses?
Where
could
we
have
done
better
and
then
what
were
our
threats
and
and
some
of
the
things
that
you
know
came
up
during
budgeting?
D
D
D
D
I
think
we
should
have
discussed
up
front.
It
wasn't
during
any
of
our
budget
workshops,
and
I
just
think
that
that
should
have
been
something
we
we
should
have
discussed
it
it
it.
We
talked
about
every
other
increase
that
we're
seeing
and
again
like
just
something
we
should
have
brought
up,
because
I
think
that
it
was
kind
of
squeaked
in
at
the
end,
and
we
were
so
focused
on
fire
that
we
didn't
get
to
discuss
and
again
all
I
ask
is
next
year
or
whatever
it
is
just
please
let.
D
It
up
front
and
let
us
go
from
there
additionally,
in
in
reference
to
budgeting
and
moving
forward
a
lot
of
our
department.
Heads
are
awesome
and
great,
but
they're
retiring
the
next
five
years
I
mean
I
can
see
most
of
them
in
the
back
right
now.
They're
we're
not
going
to
have
them
around
here
long,
so
I
hate
to
see
them
go,
but
we
need
to
have
a
succession
plan.
D
I
see
jmi
though
pam
chief,
I
see
you
guys,
so
I
think
we
just
need
to
have
some
type
of
succession
planner
at
least
be
again
communicated
with
the
council
that
we
have
something
moving
forward.
It's
a
big
concern
of
mine,
just
I've.
You
know
I'm
raising
my
family
here
and
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
not
being
left
out
in
the
next
15
20
years,
whatever
it
is
that
we
we
have
some
type
of
plan,
that's
in
place
that
creates
success
for
our
city
long
term
next
one.
D
I
just
want
to
confirm
that
we
are
moving
our
funds
completely
out
of
reserves
and
into
an
operating
account
for
afd
to
be
able
to
move
from
october
1..
That's
not
something
that's
going
to
slowly
come
out.
It's
going
to
come
out
day,
one
into
an
operating
account
that
they
can
spend
and
just
start
doing
what
they
need
to
do.
D
Okay,
and
then
this
is
more
so
to
the
fire
chief
do
do
we
have
any
plans
for
kind
of
what
moving
forward
our
outreach
plans
are.
I
know
at
one
point
you
said
you
know
we'll
go
to
jacksonville
we'll
go
wherever
we
need
to
go.
Do
you
guys
have
any
plans
in
place
that
are
implemented
that
or
that
you've
discussed
that
you're
going
to
implement
to
do
a
little
more
outreach?
We've
got
a
big
fund
now
available
for
you
to
use.
U
Yeah
we're
sir
excuse
me
sean,
while
I'm
fire
chief
we're
certainly
moving
forward
with
a
lot
of
different
projects.
You
know
one
of
the
things
with
reassigning
some
of
our
duties
that
we're
gonna
have
certain
site-specific
targets,
the
schools.
You
know
school
outreach
too,
like
we
discussed
in
our
meeting
with
the
graduations
things
like
that.
One
thing
we're
developing
right
now
is
a
poster
for
lack
of
better
a
better
word,
but
to
list
some
of
our
highlights
of
things
benefits.
U
We
offer
things
like
that
to
get
kind
of
that
kind
of
outreach,
social
media
things
like
that,
so
certainly
things
and
working
projects.
It's
also
something
we're
pretty
excited
about
we're
working
with
the
school
board
recently
with
the
high
school
students
and
kind
of
general
grassroots
approach,
we've
done
before,
where
we've
gone
to
the
different
community
events
and
things
like
that
to
attract
new
things,
so
there's
certainly
plans
in
place,
and
once
we
start
you
know
moving
forward.
That
will
definitely
keep
you
awesome.
D
Us
know
when
those
dates
are
and
invite
us
and
we'll
be
there.
We
love
being
interactive.
However,
we
can
and
sell
us
we
want
to
sell
the
apopka.
So,
however,
we
can
support
you.
Just
let
us
know
right.
Thank
you,
yeah
and
then
the
last
one
is
just
south
apopka
annexation.
I
know
we've
talked
about
hey
after
budgets,
we're
going
to
do
it
end
of
october.
Let's
set
a
date
tonight.
What
date
can
we
make?
I
mean,
let's
look
at
our
calendars.
R
D
So
I
understand
that
and
not
to
offend
commissioner
becker
by
any
means,
but
I
I
just
I
don't
want
to
delay
this
anymore
and
we've
already
said
that
we're
going
to
do
in
october
so
and
I
think
it
would
be
beneficial
for
banks
and
to
be
up
here
as
well.
Commissioner,
banks
excuse
me
to
be
up
here
as
well
to
to
have
his
input
by
no
means,
so
I
want
to
silence
his
voice
up
here
so
and
and-
and
commissioner
becker
can
be
a
part
of
that
conversation
as
well
very
easily.
C
R
D
G
G
Michael
can
bring
you
the
process
because
there's
a
voting
process
that
has
to
take
place.
So
our
our
staff's
plan
was
to
bring
you
all
the
information
everything.
So
you
have
everything
it
takes
to
get.
If
we
decide
to
go
this
route,
what
it
would
take
to
get
there
from
the
funding
to
the
process,
how
long
it
takes
to
announce
them
based
on
the
votes
that
have
to
take
place,
so
we
were
going
to
give
you
all
the
information
so
that
we
can
decide
how
to
move
forward
from
there.
R
I
don't
think
the
general
public
is
really
clear
on
what
annexation
entails
the
differences,
and
that's
where
I
I
can
give
a
presentation
on
the
statutory
requirements
of
annexation,
the
differences
between
voluntary
annexation
and
involuntary
annexation
and
what
what
needs
to
be
done
and
what
those
those
differences
are.
I
think
a
lot
of
folks
just
seem
to
to
believe
that,
for
starters,
annexation
is
something
that
the
city
does,
which
is
not
the
case
when
it
comes
to
voluntary
annexations.
But
if
we
want
to
structure
the
workshop
to
be
basically,
this
is
what
annexation
is.
R
This
is
what
it
isn't
and
if
you,
if
the
city
elects
to
take
that
route
here,
are
the
potential
costs
as
a
workshop,
that
the
public
can
be
invited
to
to
put
in
their
their
input
and
comments,
and
then
we
can
move
forward
from
there
now
any
steps
to
move
forward.
If
it's
going
to
be
actually
a
concrete
move
to
move
forward
to
an
annexation.
I
think
the
general
tone
of
what
the
scuttlebutt
is,
I
guess
out
there-
is
that
most
likely.
R
R
E
A
The
commissioners
and
then,
if
you
want
to
because
we
based
on
the
size
if
it
grows
a
lot
or
shrinks
a
lot
it
could
it
could,
the
funding
could
be
substantially
different.
So
why
don't
we
do?
This
is
sending
out
blind
copy
to
each
of
the
commissioners
what
the
old,
what
we
kind
of
started
with
edward
and
if
you
think
it
should
be
expanded
or
contracted
at
least
we've
got,
because
we
got
to
come
in
kind
of
with
pretty
firm.
You
know
geographical
boundaries
so
that
we
know
what
what
we're
talking
about
and
so.
R
R
R
K
R
D
R
P
F
R
R
I
I
think,
7
p.m.
If
we
want
to
make
accommodations
for
the
public
to
attend
since
7
p.m
is
consistent
with
our
city
council
meeting
times,
I'm
just
suggesting,
I'm
not
I'm
not
mandating
that
it
be
at
seven,
but
I
would
advise.
Seven
o'clock
is
consistent
with
our
regular
council
meeting
times,
and
I
think
it
gives
ample
time
for
the
residents
to
be
able
to
come
home
from
work
and
sneak
in
a
quick
dinner
and
then
come
to
the
city
council
meeting.
C
D
K
Okay,
well,
I
see
already
you're
going
to
talk
about
the
911
and
the
hispanic,
so
I'm
not
going
to
spend
any
time
on
talking
about
that.
We
already
talked
about
annexation,
but
I
would
also
like
to
let
you
know
that
I
am
serving
on
the
florida
league
of
cities,
land
use
and
economic
development
committee,
and
we
met
last
week
and
we're
preparing
our
priorities
that
we're
going
to
be
taking
to
tallahassee
to
the
legislature
and
just
want
to
get
some
input.
K
At
the
conclusion
of
the
meeting
that
we
held,
we
can
only
have
one
priority
statement,
so
we're
leaning
close
to
the
mobility
plan
feel
like
that.
That
affects
all
the
cities,
because
whatever
we
present
has
to
be
something
that
affects
the
entire
state.
So
mobility
plan
look
like
it's
going
to
be
number
one.
Our
sovereign
immunity
is
running
a
very
close
second,
so
we're
going
to
be
meeting
again
on
october,
the
7th,
and
so,
if
either
one
of
those
you're
leaning
one
way
or
the
other.
A
C
K
K
C
R
Yeah
yeah,
let's
get!
That
too,
is
that
that
yeah,
just
I
guess,
if
you
want
a
proper
mobility
fees,
is
goes
beyond
just
simply
road
improvements,
you're
looking
at
complete
view
of
all
transportation
needs
we're
talking
like
full
mobility,
intermodal
transportation
bus
lines,
rail
lines,
it's
it's
a
way
of
diverting
the
fees
or
creating
fees,
and
then
a
local
government
creates
a
mobility
plan
and
the
mobility
fee
funds
that
mobility
plan.
A
H
B
F
Time
well,
yeah
the
the
his
the
hispanic
heritage
festival.
It
was
very
nice.
We
had
a
nice
attendance
of
residents,
we
had
entertainment,
we
really
enjoyed
the
samba,
the
phoebe
somber
dances.
They
were
very
the
high
energy,
they
went
out
into
the
the
crowd
and-
and
they
got
you
know,
kids
dancing.
Adults
dancing
was
very
nice.
It
was
our
first
year
and
I
you
know-
I
admit
that
I
wasn't.
F
F
So
thank
you
to
the
city
of
apopka
for
being
for
doing
this
for
the
first
year
and
that
it
will
build
every
year
and
we
hope
it
gets
bigger
and
more
vendors
and
when
we
have
more
time
to
bring
more
vendors,
there
were
a
few
vendors
that
didn't
show
because
they
were
at
different
activities
around
the
city.
But
overall
I
enjoyed
it.
I
stayed
till
the
very
end
we
had
a
great
speaker
jose
from
was
he
from
hope
or
farmworkers
farm
workers?
He
was
excellent.
He
had
the
part
going,
the
entertainment
going.
F
F
F
U
F
U
G
D
G
Where's
that
I
mean
that's
something
we
can
look
at
yeah.
We
can
do
that
now.
I
I'm
gonna,
tell
I'm
gonna
say
this:
it's
difficult
to
do
it
for
the
whole
city.
It's
going
to
be
a
difficult
process.
People
get
promoted
in
some
departments
and
it
doesn't
get
publicized
but
you're
talking
about
invite
police.
D
G
F
U
U
So
when
I'm
told
that
you
know
I'm
looking
and
I've
seen
it
too,
looking
at
friends
and
things
like
that
that
that's
false,
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
creating
the
best
culture
possible
and
retain
people.
You
know,
internal
mobility
helps
with
retention
motivation,
that's
something
we're
trying
to
work
on
right
now.
Good
firefighters
are
motivated
to
stay,
you
know
and
that's
the
men
and
women
see
that
opportunity
if
it's
internal,
improving
that
asset
throughout
time,
every
person
that
I'm
going
to
go
through
the
different
qualifications.
U
If
you
want
to
each
each
of
the
people
I
promoted
as
they
grow,
they
become
more
valuable
to
our
department.
You
know
that's
something
that
we
want
to
encourage.
We've
talked
about
secession
plans,
we're
talking
about
the
next
directors
are
going
to
be
that
homegrown
feeling
there's
more
buying
with
that
sort
of
thing
and
showing
your
people,
you
have
faith
for
them
to
tackle.
Our
challenges
goes
a
long
ways
and
that's
what
I'm
trying
to
do
here:
sean
knapp
division,
chief
of
training.
U
U
He's
helped
with
I'm
just
trying
to
look
at
some
of
their
stuff.
He's
fully
demonstrated
support
for
our
crews
by
preventing
mental
well-being,
which
is
something
we're
trying
to
tie
into
health
and
safety.
At
this
time,
he's
led
and
started
our
peer
support
team.
He
will
add
the
health
and
safety
aspect
to
the
mental
health
program
and
he
oversees
a
lot
of
that
stuff
on
others.
F
U
F
C
C
U
U
He's
a
he's,
a
public
education,
education
officer,
he
was
actually
our
secondary
fire
inspector
under
the
past
administration,
where
we're
bringing
him
back
in
to
do
that.
He's
a
prison
proven
leader
he's
certified
in
fire
and
safety.
Education
he's
a
fire
inspector
one
and
two
he's
also
a
big
thing.
I'm
looking
at
too
he's
helped
with
our
recruiting
process.
Before
we
talked
about
in
our
meeting
right,
we
went
out
and
did
that
grass
roots
approach.
U
U
U
U
F
Because
I
had
a
digital
media
reached
out
to
me
and
asked:
do
you
have
a
comment
on
the
four
promotions
and
I
was
at
first?
I
was
like
what
those
four
promotions
were
last
month.
Why
would
they
ask
me
about
that
and
then,
when
I
saw
it
on
social
media,
then
I
realized
those
were
the
promotions
that
he
was
so
again.
F
It
seems
like
social
media
seems
to
be
getting
what's
going
on
inside
city
hall
and
then
I'm
finding
out
and
I'm
sure
the
other
commissioners
are
finding
out
through
social
media.
So
it
just
just
as
a
courtesy
just
send
us.
You
know,
make
us
part
of
the
list
so
that
when
someone
says
oh,
you
know
the
fire
department,
they
just
promote
it.
We
say
yes
and
then
we
can
kind
of
answer
to
that
that
at
least
let
our
residents
know
we're
in
the
know,
but.
D
F
C
A
A
R
Anthony
report,
but
I
guess
in
response
to
commissioner
nesta's
suggestion
on
the
noise
ordinance,
if
any,
if
you
wish,
if
it,
if
you're
looking
at
receiving,
I
guess
a
first
draft
or
working
on
one
just
in
the
past
and
former
commissioner
commissioner
elect
becker,
can
can
attest.
That
I
mean
I
can
present.
We
did
this
when
it
came
to
the
dollar
store
ordinance.
R
If
you're
looking
for
you
know
my
office
to
prepare,
I
guess
the
first
drafts
and
if
you
want
input,
feel
free
to
communicate.
I
can
work,
I
think,
on
the
dollar.
Tr
I'll
call
it
dollar
tree,
but
no,
the
dollar
storedness.
I
worked
directly
with
commissioner
becker.
I
think
I
worked
with
you
as
well,
commissioner
velasquez
for
what
the
details
were
and
and
and
have
an
input
back
and
forth.
We
can
do
that.
So
if
that's
something
you
want
to
begin,
I
can
begin
that
process
and
work
with
you
before
we
even
present
it
forward.
R
A
noise
ordinance
doesn't
have
to
go
to
to
planning
commission,
so
it
can
it
will,
but
before
we
can
at
least
work
on
the
language,
and
that
invitation
is
open
to
all
commissioners
to
get
input
on
what
you
want
to
see
before
it
gets
presented
for
for
for
first
reading,
and
then
we
can
at
that
point,
discuss
it
open
for
the
public.
I
can
begin
that
that
process.
R
So
if
you
want
to
reach
out
to
me
or
any
of
you
can
reach
out
to
me
to
begin,
we
can
begin
that
process
and
we
can
start
the
the
drafting.
I
can
have
a
first
draft
that
I
can
then
seminar
disseminate
to
each
one
of
you
individually.
Not
in
a
group.
I
will
communicate
with
each
one
of
you
individually
to
receive
any
input
for
what
you
want
to
see
and
what
direction
the
ordinance
to
take.
I
will
gladly
do
so.
R
I've
done
it
in
the
past
and
I'll
do
it
in
the
future
for
any
type
of
subject,
especially
a
subject
matter
that
I'll
say
is
near
and
dear
to
your
hearts,
but
that
you
want
to
see
proposed
forward.
I
mean,
is,
you:
are
the
legislative
body
of
the
city
and,
as
such,
some
some
of
you,
may
you
can
take
ownership
and
sponsorship.
R
A
A
Of
our
brother,
when
we
lost
in
9
11
21
years
ago,
you
know
we
started
out
friday.
We
had,
I
think
most
was
everybody
here
other
than
commissioner
velasquez
here
friday
for
the
the
memorial
out
front
city
hall
and
really
well
done.
Police
chief
fire
chief
did
a
nice
job
on
that.
So
thank
you
and
the
honor
guard
was
there
as
well.
A
Then
saturday
started
out
saturday
morning
with
5k,
which
I
think
was
the
biggest
crowd
biggest
crowd.
We've
ever
had.
I
think
they
said
like
140
140
people
for
the
5k
run
concert
a
little
disappointed.
I
don't
know
why
we
we
pushed
it
out.
You
know
our
it
department
pushed
it
out
and
it
just
didn't
get
quite
the
turnout
we
would
like.
But
you
know
it
was
there's
always
next
year
on
to
the
hispanic
heritage
celebration.
A
You
know
we
put
the
diversity,
equity
and
inclusion
board
together
six
weeks
ago
and
and
was
tell
you
with
a
lot
of
teamwork.
You
know
we
had
each
individual
member
was
bringing
something
to
the
table,
not
only
bands
but
the
the
the
radio
station
and
and
and
all
the
people
that
were
involved.
I
got
out
there
and
knocked
on
a
few
doors
to
get
some
folks
to
to
to
be
a
part
of
that.
I
think
we
had
to
end
up
with
26
different
vendors.
A
A
These
plexiglass
walls
are
creating
havoc
with
the
cameras
and
unfortunately,
commissioner
smith,
when
it's
bouncing
off
me,
I'm
making
you
not
look
so
good
anymore.
I
hate
to
say
that,
but
so,
if
we
can,
we
can
leave
it
and
adjust
to
that
or
we
can
take
the
plexiglas
walls
down.
Obviously,
we'd
keep
them
in
case.
We
have
another
outbreak,
but
it
would
like
to
remove
them,
but
either
way
we've
got
to.
