A
B
Let
us
pray
dear
wise
and
loving
father.
We
welcome
you
here
with
us
tonight
Lord.
We
thank
you
on
behalf
of
all
who
are
gathered
here
today.
We
thank
you
for
your
many
and
abundant
blessings.
We
thank
you
for
our
lives.
We
thank
you
for
the
great
measure
of
health
that
we
all
need
to
fulfill
our
callings,
for
sustenance,
for
provision
for
family
and
for
good
working
relationships
for
respect
for
ourselves
and
for
others
and
for
friendship.
B
We
thank
you
for
the
ability
to
be
involved
in
useful
work
and
for
the
honor
of
bearing
appropriate
responsibilities.
We
thank
you
Lord
as
well
for
the
freedom
to
embrace
you
or
the
freedom
to
reject
you.
We
thank
you
for
loving
us,
even
so
from
your
boundless
and
gracious
nature,
always
extending
your
mercy,
grace,
love
and
forgiveness,
regardless
of
how
far
we
may
wander
or
stray
in
the
Scriptures.
B
Therefore,
we
come
before
you
and
we
pray
a
divine
and
supernatural
equipping,
especially
for
our
mayor
mayor
Gillick,
for
the
various
levels
of
city
officials
and
department,
heads
for
all
staff
and
employees
in
the
city
of
Biloxi.
In
particular,
we
pray
for
this
council
assembled
today.
We
thank
you
Lord
that
each
council
member
was
elected
and
selected
and
chosen
for
a
time
such
as
this.
B
We
are
asking
father
that
you
would
graciously
grant
unto
this
council
your
boldness,
your
courage,
your
strength,
your
joy
and
your
peace,
your
direction
and
your
guidance
order,
their
footsteps,
their
decisions,
words
grant
unto
this
council,
your
wisdom,
knowledge
and
understanding,
discernment
and
revelation
to
govern,
admit
the
conflicting
interests
and
all
the
issues
of
our
times
that
we
currently
face
and
that
they
will
face
in
the
future.
Grant
unto
this
council
a
sense
of
well
the
welfare
and
true
needs
of
the
people
of
our
city.
B
A
keen
thirst
for
justice,
righteousness
and
rightness
confidence
in
what
is
good
and
lovely
and
fitting
grant
unto
this
council
the
ability
to
work
together
in
unity
and
in
harmony
and
in
peace
showing
respect.
Even
when
there
is
honest,
peaceable
and
civil
disagreement
and
differing
of
opinions
and
passions
grant,
unto
this
council
personal
peace
in
their
lives
in
all
their
decisions
and
joy
in
all
their
tasks
at
hand,
Lord,
we
pray
for
the
agenda
set
before
this
council
today.
B
Please
give
an
assurance
of
what
would
please
you
Father
and
what
would
benefit
those
who
live
and
work
in
and
around
our
beloved
city
of
Biloxi
I
invoke
God's
richest
and
most
a
blessed
and
most
abundant
blessings
on
the
city
of
Biloxi
and
on
the
City
Council.
Today,
as
you
serve
the
people
of
Biloxi,
and
it
is
in
your
most
blessed
and
mighty
and
matchless
name
Jesus-
that
we
pray,
amen.
C
D
D
Again,
you
were
we're
finding
our
way
through,
sometimes
that
are
unsure
with
regard
to
the
budget,
but
the
next
30
days
will
give
us
a
path
you
know,
as
far
as
the
next
30
days
and
in
the
back,
Ovid
I,
think
our
numbers
as
far
as
about
thirty
one
per
day,
new
cases
in
Harrison
counties
with
it
there's
what
we're
kind
of
gauging
things.
We
hope
those
numbers
will
go
down
in
the
next
four
or
five
days.
D
We
continue
to
meet
with
the
other
mayor's
on
the
teleconference
every
week,
and
we
were
particularly
appreciative
of
what
dr.
Steve,
the
metropolis
from
Pascagoula
has
had
to
say
regarding
where
we
are
and
where
we
need
to
be
again
not
overwhelmed
as
far
as
folks
in
the
hospital
or
stressing
that
system.
D
So
I
think
masks
are
the
key
in
as
we
go
forward
and
again
that
40%
kind
of
sends
us
a
message
that
we
want
to
protect
everyone
and
that
as
a
way,
so
that's
my
little
pitch
and
I'll
stick
into
that.
But
I
do
want
to.
You
know
stress
that
these
are
times
that
we're
gonna
going
through
as
far
as
closing
the
financial
hole
and
and
the
the
we
don't
want
to
take
a
step
backwards
as
far
as
opening
reopening
and
in
business
in
the
future.
D
E
Yeah
a
couple
of
things
I'd
like
to
thank
the
council
clerk's
for
being
able
to
work,
I
guess
with
it,
with
the
company
MCC
I
to
get
the
city's
minutes
on
line
faster,
much
faster,
significantly
faster
in
the
past.
It
was
sometimes
difficult
to
have
access
to
minutes
in
the
previous
six
months.
Now
you
can
actually
get
online
and
see
those
minutes
within
a
couple
of
weeks
of
the
of
the
council
meeting
so
that
that's
a
big
improvement
on
that's
off
to
the
council.
Clerks
on
that.
E
I
would
urge
the
mayor
and
I'd
mentioned
this
to
him
earlier
that
maybe
put
out
some
metrics
beforehand
looking
at
certain
factors
and
if
we
hit
those
thresholds
so
to
speak,
that
maybe
this
council
and
the
administration
might
look
yeah.
You
need
to
wear
a
mask
if
you're
going
into
a
business
and
if
you're
not
well,
maybe
the
business
owner
shouldn't.
Let
you
in
I
hate
to
say
that
and
I.
E
D
I
could
comment
on
that
whenever
you
finish
but
yeah
those
metrics
right
now
we're
looking
at
about
a
month
ago,
we
were
looking
at
four
and
five
day,
four
or
five
new
cases.
A
day.
Now
we
had
31
and
32
I.
Think
we
just
reached
a
peak
and
I
hope
that
31
new
cases
per
day
in
Harrison
County
is
dropping,
went
up
a
little
bit
today.
D
I
think
one
from
31
to
32
36,
but
the
overall
average
was
like
32
points,
something
else,
but
we
hope
that's
a
plateau
for
Harrison,
County
I
think
we
are,
but
you
know
not
to
very
much
further
ago
we
were
at
3
1.97
per
day
over
14
day
average.
So
that's
a
big
jump.
I
mean
you
just
look
at
the
numbers
and
again
it
was
a
subject
that
dr.
metropolis
talked
about
and
that
you
know
this
has
got
to
be
considered
just
protecting
others
and
that's
a
way
to
reduce
this.
These
new
cases
so
appreciative.
E
E
My
house
I'm
in
that
I'm
in
that
vulnerable
group,
now
proud
enough
to
say:
I've
walked
the
earth
long
enough
I'm
in
that
vulnerable
group,
but
it's
just
I,
don't
think
it's
too
much
to
ask
the
citizens
of
Biloxi
to
act
rationally
and
reasonably
and
take
those
precautions
that
help
us
all.
It's
not
a
big.
It's
not
a
big
thing.
E
I,
don't
want
to
make
it
a
big
thing:
I,
don't
think
it's
a
political
thing,
I
think
it's
a
well-being
and
health
thing,
particularly
if
we
are
tourist
destination
and
have
people
coming
and
going
the
mayor's
right
to
look
at
those
numbers,
and
all
you
need
to
know
is
the
trend
line.
Is
it
leveling
off?
Is
it
declining
or
is
it
increasing?
And
if
it's
and
it's
increasing
right
now,
we
had
done
very
very
well
earlier,
but
so
had
a
lot
of
other
communities.
E
So
I
just
think
we
need
to
watch
the
indicators
and
it
would
really
be
nice
if
we
could
publicize
or
the
administration
would
consider
publicizing
whatever
those
thresholds
are
that
if
these
numbers
are
hit,
we
need
to
do
something
more
than
what
we're
doing
now.
The
other
concern
that's
associated
with
that
is,
if
we
get
to
that
point-
and
we
do
something
like
that,
then
I
think
we
need
to
look
at
how
it's
going
to
be
enforced
and,
what's
the
consequence
going
to
be,
but
that's
a
future
discussion
at
a
later
date.
E
Hopefully
we
never
get
to
that
date
and
have
to
have
that
discussion,
but
I
just
think
we
all
need
to
be
a
little
more
careful
than
we're
being
careful
now.
The
other
last
comment
I
would
make
is
that
we
had
somebody
test
positive
for
coronavirus
here.
Ten
days
eleven
days
ago
and
I
went
and
was
tested
and
I
know
a
number
of
employees,
40
or
50
city
employees
were
tested.
They
went
to
medical
analysis,
we
contract
with
them
for
wellness
and
some
some
well
health
services
and
I
think
they
tested
those
individual
city.
E
Employees,
myself
included
Mundy
got
the
results
back
Tuesday
afternoon.
I
had
the
antibody
test
just
because
I
wanted
to
know,
I
have
antibodies,
and
all
that
tells
me
is
I've
been
exposed
to
a
SARS
related
virus,
not
necessarily
Co,
but
19
sometime
in
the
past
and
I
have
anybody's.
So
this
whole
time,
I
was
thinking
if
I
have
anybody's
I'm
golden.
No,
no,
that's
not
true
and
there's
still
not
a
lot
known
about
Co,
but
they're
they're
learning
some
things
but
I
did
want
to
commend
metanalysis
they.
E
C
You
still
have
to
look
at
the
numbers
and
if
the
last
three
age
groups
out
of
probably
80%
hit
lately
I
don't
want
it
been
tested.
So
all
the
tests
the
way
up,
but
the
healthcare
system
itself,
the
ICU,
the
ventilators
they
most
of
those
that
down
from
last
month.
So
a
lot
more
people
getting
tested
a
lot
more
people
just
negative.
Well,
that's
that's
a
good
thing
and
the
young
people
don't
see
me
as
a
problem
as
a
hold
of
people
like
boffo.
C
You
know,
like
seven
happen,
City
all
we
all
get
tested
and
never
said
it
was
all
negative.
So
there
was
a
good
thing
so,
but
I
mean
a
nationwide.
The
health
care
system
is
so
the
death
tolls.
Nothing
is
just
shrinking.
It's
90
percent,
less
than
what
it
was
a
month
ago.
That's
how
something
a
lot
more
people
being
tested,
but
it's
just
not
positive.
If
they
do
have
it
like,
he
says
it's
asymptomatic,
everybody
don't
do
much
anything
and
anybody
knows
anything
about
viruses.
They
enter
stage
now
with
a
mutate
and
the
motor
mutate.
C
C
It's
at
right
now,
so
he
just
breaking
up
if
you
still
get
it
and
the
even
ones
they're
getting
out
of
it,
don't
even
say
they're,
not
even
a
bad
case
of
the
flu
where,
but
at
the
beginning
it
was
pretty
bad.
You
know.
So
that's
enough!
On
the
medical
field,
we
got
to
go
back
to
the
first
July
with
a
great
display.
The
fireworks
was
awesome.
B
C
Down
there
a
lot
of
people
on
the
beach
people
enjoyed
it
great
show.
That's
awesome.
It's
good
that
city's
part
of
this
mister
boom
boom
come
that
does
it,
but
this
city
and
the
county
you
know,
puts
up
money,
help
fund
this
thing,
but
it's
a
great
thing
to
celebrate:
Independence
Day
and
going
to
that
this
country
here
right
now,
it's
a
great
country,
they've
got
a
great
city
agree.
Your
mayor
got
a
great
councilman.
C
Oh
we
hit
and
elected
to
protect
the
people,
protect
their
property,
and
to
do
that,
you
have
to
have
a
very
strong
public
safety,
the
police
department,
the
fire
department.
So
all
these
people
want
to
talk
about
the
bad
things
about
the
police.
These
talk
about
the
good
things
they
do
and
there's
a
lot
of
things
has
done
well
in
the
city
of
Boston
and
all
over
the
country
they're
people
trying
to
destroy
the
country
is
the
worst
thing
in
the
world.
What
they're
doing
it's
marxism?
There
was
socialized
medicine.
C
F
C
A
part
of
what
it
is
wasn't
all
great,
no
probably
not
it
all
get
better.
Yes,
it
did
always
they
improved.
Yes,
we
are
so
you
gotta
think
that
we
live
in
the
greatest
country
in
the
world
and
I
seen
on
the
station,
and
we
lucky
enough
to
live
in
city
of
Biloxi
and
I
feel
the
same
way.
My
councilman
feels
up
and
the
mayor.
We
hear
other
people
and
help
the
people.
C
A
G
Just
have
a
couple
things
Christiaan,
the
canals.
Do
you
know
the
extent
to
where
what
they're
gonna
be
cleaning
out
I've
gotten
several
calls
this
week
of
other
people
that
the
stuff's
still
setting
I
know
that
I
see
them
out
there
working,
but
are
they
just
going
to
be
in
that
area
as
something
that
they're
gonna
move
and
get
all
those
areas
that
have
that
stuff
backed
up
in
there.
H
E
I
G
D
G
J
A
D
A
G
K
All
right
there
we
go
I'm
online
now
like
what
George
said
great
city,
great
mayor,
great
councilman
and
echo
what
everyone
else
said:
yeah
I'm
a
little
concerned
also
with
the
Cova
19,
epidemic
or
pandemic-
that
we're
having
here
I,
believe
that
my
community
is
one
of
the
older
communities
around
and
a
lot
of
grandparents
that
are
raising
young
kids
and,
of
course,
according
to
listening
to
the
national
news,
it's
being
spread
by
the
young
kids.
A
lot
of
young
kids
are
out
playing
basketball
and
now
we're
hitting
into
football
season.
K
So
a
lot
of
contact
sports,
so
I
am
I,
am
worried
about
that
and
maybe
the
city
we
may
need
to
look
at
the
possibility
of
doing
another
test
and
open
up
some
testing
like
we.
We
did
a
couple
of
months
ago,
so
I
just
wanted
to
throw
that
out.
Just
in
case
I
would
also
like
schedule
a
meeting
with
the
mayor
and
Walt
for
Monday,
so
we
can
do
something
to
wrap
up
all
now
the
east
side
contract.
That
concludes
my
report.
Thank.
A
You
vines
guides,
I,
don't
have
much
of
a
report.
Just
a
brief
recap:
councilman
Tisdale
says
mass
are
good,
America's
good
looks
he's
good
and
kids
are
bad
I'm
just
kidding
no
for
those
of
you
that
missed
the
the
budget
meeting,
we
had
a
riveting
discussion
of
of
revenues,
and
you
know
just
to
further
on
our
discussion.
A
I
think
we're
in
a
good
place
for
those
of
those
of
you
that
weren't
here
we're
one
of
the
the
few
locations
on
the
coast,
that's
open
and
have
less
stripe
and
stringent
restrictions
on
economic
activity,
and
so
I
think
we're
gonna
see
great
numbers
for
the
next
few
weeks.
Thank
you
for
the
earlier
meeting.
I
look
forward
to
the
next
one
and
with
that
we'll
move
on
to
the
public
agenda
citizens
comments
about
45
minutes,
total
three
minutes
per
person,
I'm
gonna
start
with
the
people.
A
A
L
And
we
want
to
talk
about
the
opportunity
for
short-term
rental.
We
live
in
a
a
girl
with
really
no
neighbors,
there's
one
person
and
we're
not
able
to
do
short-term
rental.
But
given
the
situation
with
kovat,
but
I,
think
it's
more
important
than
ever,
that
we
look
at
situations
that
we
can
bring
people
to
the
coast
safely,
not
in
a
large
hotel
or
in
a
group
situation,
and
we
find
the
type
of
people
who
are
looking
for
our
property
or
looking
for
a
VRBO
or
families
that
don't
feel
comfortable
going
to
a
casino.
L
A
M
A
If
we
didn't
do
at
exchanged,
we
could
do
a
tax
change,
but
is
there
a
way
to
add
some
form
of
amendment
that
allows
for
special
consideration
to
things
that
that
don't
fall
within
the
typical
elements
of
what
we
don't
want?
And
so,
if
he's
not
within
a
residential
area,
it's
not
going
to
affect
a
neighborhood.
It's
not
gonna
affect
neighbors.
It
feels
like
he
might
be
suitable
for
some
type
of
exception,
I'm,
not
suggesting
that
that
we
do
approve
that
specific
location
right
now.
A
M
I
can
discuss
that
with
mr.
Abady
special
exceptions.
The
main
concern
you
have
you
run
into
when
you're
doing
a
special
exception.
Is
it
you're
going
to
have
to
be
able
to
justify
and
you're
going
to
have
to
create
criteria,
we're
determining?
How
is
it
allowed
here?
And
it's
not
allowed
here
so
we've
always
tried
to
avoid
special
exceptions.
M
For
that
reason,
but
a
simple
tax
change
in
the
ordinance-
and
you
know-
we've
mentioned
this
before-
that
there
are
properties
that
are
on
the
rivers
and
in
the
back
bays
that,
if
you're
a
certain
distance
from
the
water,
maybe
we
do
need
to
consider
a
short-term
rental.
Maybe
an
overlay
district
or
something
like
that
to
allow
it
so
we'd
be
happy
to
take
a
look
at
that
and
I'll
discuss
that
one.
Mr.
egg,
bad.
I
We
have
been
inundated
by
temporary
rentals,
both
legal
and
illegal.
Within
this
neighborhood
we
are
a
very
small
area
with
only
two
roads
that
go
on
to
highway
90
and
that's
our
only
access
in
and
out
adding
48
units
in
close
proximity
to
all
of
these
other
locations.
I'm,
not
sure
if
you're
aware,
but
mr.
Zheng
was
approved
for
six
units
that
are
short-term
within
another
building
of
30
apartments
that
he
built
now
this
new
48.
I
He
wants
approval
for
all
48
I
asked
you
city
council,
that
is
not
I
mean
he
is
not
following
requirements
to
make
this
a
hotel.
Are
you
collecting
city
taxes
based
on
a
hotel?
It's
we
have
treasure
Bay
1.3
miles.
We
have
quality
in
there
we
have
Motel
6
there.
We
have
an
RV
park.
That
was
just
built
there.
I
We
are
being
encroached
in
our
neighborhood
by
all
of
this
temporary
living
and
I
will
explain
to
you
having
been
there
over
the
last
several
years
that
these
temporary
liver's
do
not
care
about
the
city
of
Biloxi.
They
come
in,
they
make
the
disaster,
and
then
they
go
home
and
they
never
think
about
it
again.
I
I
mean
I've
been
in
situations
than
this
small
neighborhood,
where
you
have
a
temporary
living
house,
legal
and
illegal,
both
in
this
neighborhood
and
will
have
20
to
30
to
40
people
in
one
unit,
and
it
creates
a
problem
in
the
neighborhood.
It
creates
a
disruption
in
day
to
day
lives
of
our
people.
I
Paulo
can
tell
you
just
we've
gone
through
this
before
the
traffic,
in
that
small
neighborhood
is,
on
average,
four
to
five
hundred
cars
a
day
and
when
the
Coliseum
lets
out
from
the
back
entrance
we're
talking
seven
to
eight
hundred
cars
a
day.
I
am
asking
the
City
Council
to
really
seriously
consider.
If
we
need
another
set
of
forty-eight
temporary
living
units
in
this
neighborhood,
we
don't
I
mean
we
care
about
the
neighborhood
where
a
resident.
We
want
equal
treatment,
we
want
to
be
treated
I
vote
Biloxi
because
it's
a
tourist
town,
it's
the
reason.
I
I
came
here,
but
I
also
didn't
come
here
to
have
my
property
trash
during
these
events.
I
also
did
not
come
here
to
be
to
always
feel
like
the
tourists
are
more
important
and
that's
how
most
of
the
residents
in
this
neighborhood
many
who
live
there.
Their
whole
lives
feel
that
we
are
second-class
citizens
to
the
tourists.
Thank
you
for
your
time.
Thank
you.
N
N
One
day
I'll
be
able
to
do
two
things
at
one
time.
I
do
agree,
an
echo
exactly
what
she
just
expressed.
It's
like.
We
have
been
over
concentrated
as
far
as
tourists,
tourists,
tourists
pushed
illness
and
there
are
some
residents
back.
There
I've
lived
in
my
house
for
30
years
I
like
living
back
there.
You
know
I
got
God
country
in
front
of
me
with
all
that
Gulf
of
Mexico.
So
with
that
being
said,
the
property
that
this
man
has
is
going
to
go
behind
three
other
properties.
N
Okay,
so
it's
like,
if
you
start
from
the
south
he's
going
to
be
on
Briarfield,
then
it
kind
of
makes
an
L
I
know
I'm
using
my
hands.
Sorry
I
teach
school,
so
it
going
to
go
behind
another
house
that
their
previously
trying
to
sell
there's
a
vacant
land
that
used
to
be
a
house
there
and
then
there's
another
house
on
the
other
side
of
it.
N
So
I
guess
my
question
is:
how
can
that
be
ingress
and
egress
followed
when
it
both
of
them
are
going
to
be
on
Briar
field
and
the
ones
that
are
in
the
back
in
the
back?
Behind
the
houses,
isn't
that,
like
a
safety
issue
as
far
as
trying
to
get
fire
trucks
and
police
and
stuff
like
that
in
there
anyway,
these
are
just
questions
that
I
have
that.
N
A
A
A
A
E
Miss
Crawford
there's
a
lady.
You
should
meet
in
this
room
before
you
leave
tonight.
Her
name
is
Mary
Simons
and
she
is
right
there
and
the
city
has
a
relationship
with
miss
Simons
and
we're
working
on
these
issues
that
you
spoke
about,
so
it
just
so
happens.
Fate
has
put
miss
Simons
in
the
right
spot
at
the
right
time.
Okay,
thank
you.
Miss
Crawford.
A
A
Anywhere
in
the
back
there
being
none
I
have
a
couple
submitted
public
comments.
That
I
would
like
to
read
I
think
a
couple
of
pleas
that
I
made
to
the
public
about
not
being
able
to
be
here.
They've
responded
via
email,
so
if
I
would
like
to
honor
them
and
their
absence
by
reading
their
comments,
first
from
Helen,
J
Lee,
she
says
thank
you
for
contacting
us
regarding
this
important
issue.
Unfortunately,
because
I'm,
a
senior
citizen
and
fallen,
the
vulnerable
population
for
Cove
at
19
I
will
not
be
attending
the
council
meeting.
A
Our
Airbnb
is
a
single
family
home
currently
located
in
a
commercial
zone
which
is
at
the
time
which
at
this
time
does
not
have
any
restrictions
for
short
term
rental.
To
the
best
of
our
knowledge,
our
Airbnb
remains
in
an
area
zoned
commercial.
We
take
pride
in
our
Airbnb,
making
sure
that
the
property
is
well
maintained
and
conforms
to
city
and
community
ordinances.
Airbnb
has
been
a
life-changing
experience
for
our
family.
We
meet
a
broad
spectrum
of
people
visiting
the
Gulf
Coast
for
business
and
pleasure.
A
Some
visitors
have
become
close
associates
and
others
simply
fall
in
love
with
the
city
and
cannot
wait
to
return.
We
feel
that
our
Airbnb
provides
an
expanded
opportunity
for
economic
growth
and
revitalization
of
our
neighborhoods
and
small
businesses.
Airbnb
is
have
helped
to
fuel
the
tourism
industry,
bringing
needed
revenue
to
neighborhoods
and
local
businesses.
Adrian
bees
also
provide
additional
jobs
and
needed
funds
to
family
households
to
meet
daily
expenses,
especially
during
these
difficult
times
of
kovat
19.
We
are
in
favor
of
continuing
the
current
policy
of
short
term
rental,
especially
in
commercial
zones.
A
A
Secondly,
from
Adria
Palmero,
we
have
a
waterfront
home
in
an
agricultural
zone
treated
the
same
as
a
residential
area.
What
I've
noticed
since
we're
renting
our
home
is
that
the
typical
Airbnb
VRBO
renter
is
looking
to
feel
at
home,
while
they're
away
in
the
typical
hotel
is
not
set
up
like
a
home.
I've
had
several
enquiries
for
short-term
rentals
and
I've
had
to
turn
down
to
do
to
this,
and
my
property
is
definitely
unique.
A
It
is
not
in
a
neighborhood,
it
is
not
in
a
neighborhood
and
I
have
one
neighbor
and
would
possibly
be
affect,
and
I
have
one
neighbor
that
would
possibly
be
affected.
So
I
have
strict
rules
in
place
to
accommodate
my
neighbor.
Most
people
who
are
against
short-term
rentals
do
not
understand
the
clientele,
the
clientele
that
wants
a
short
term
rental
or
most
likely
want
to
say
anywhere
from
three
to
seven
days
and
want
a
home
for
the
ability
to
save
money
on
meals
and
have
privacy
as
if
were
that
as
if
it
were
their
home.
A
The
average
owner
does
not
have
time
for
all
the
regular
daily
turnover.
It's
not
time
for
the
regular
daily
turnover
that
hotels
are
better
suited
to
do.
I
guess
that
guests
should
stay
in
a
hotel
and
most
likely
only
chooses
a
home
rental,
because
the
price
is
better.
Homes
are
set
up
to
serve
families,
whereas
most
hotels
do
not
even
offer
family
suites.
You
are
lucky
if
you
can
even
get
a
connected
room
during
a
busy
event
weekend.
A
Also
with
Cova
19
families
traveling
feel
more
secure
in
private
homes,
rather
than
hotels
where
they
have
to
be
around
people
in
elevators
floors,
etc.
We
depend
highly
on
tourism
and
spend
good,
spend
a
good
deal
of
money
on
maintaining
our
beaches
that
are
comparable
to
Florida
with
less
traffic,
and
yet
we
lose
a
lot
of
business
by
not
having
the
same
offerings
of
Airbnb
and
VRBO
homes
that
they
have
to
offer.
A
I
have
had
I
have
had
long-term
rentals,
who
have
done
more
damage
to
property
and
devalued
neighborhoods
more
than
any
short-term
rental
short
term
renter
has
had
the
chance
to
do
should
a
short
term
renter
become
a
problem
for
a
neighbor.
The
owner
has
more
lead
way
to
evict
the
renter
to
appease
the
neighborhood
and
decrease
possible
damage.
There
was
a
definite
need
for
Airbnb
VRBO
rentals
that
fall
into
a
category
such
as
mine
and
the
actual
renter
should
not
be
considered
more
of
a
problem
than
any
bad
long-term
rental.
A
C
A
O
A
O
A
C
C
E
This
is
for
the
proposed
48
unit
apartment
complex.
That
would
be
used
as
short-term
rentals,
they're
off
I.
Guess
it's
it's
the
address.
It's
an
empty
lot,
133
Briarfield
and
then
significant
parcel
behind
that
to
the
west
that
runs
behind,
as
was
explained
earlier,
maybe
three
additional
Lots,
maybe
a
fourth
lot,
one
or
two
structures
there.
E
E
We
have
an
Administrative
Court
for
those
that
violate
this
and
their
fines
involved
if
they
don't
get
right
with
God,
so
to
speak.
Okay,
if
in
looking
at
this
and
and
maybe
the
other
council
members
can
help
me
I,
don't
recall
ever
having
a
complex
this
size
as
an
apartment
to
be
used
for
short-term
rentals.
So
to
some
extent
this
would
be
a
precedent.
Would
that
be
accurate.
E
Okay,
thank
you.
Will
there
be
a
manager
living
on
site
or
do
we
know
that
at
this
point
all
right?
Would
it
have
any
amenities
that
say,
because
it
that's
a
good
way
to
put
it
a
hotel
or
a
motel?
Only
it's
not
a
hotel
or
motel.
It's
a
48
unit
complex.
Will
it
have
any
of
the
amenities,
or
is
it
expected
to
have
any
amenities
that
a
hotel
or
motel
would
have.
E
E
E
E
Okay,
as
I
recall,
this
same
developer
built
a
complex
of
apartments,
came
back
later
and
asked
the
council,
and
it
was
approved
on
a
split
vote
to
designate
a
number
of
those
units
as
short-term
rentals.
So
so
this
okay,
so
okay
and
I'm
curious
because
at
the
time
I
felt
like
if
that
that,
what's
now
established,
was
going
to
be
used
for
short-term
rentals.
I
really
felt
like
because
he
came
back
after
the
fact.
E
E
E
E
A
E
E
Now
the
one
lot
that
the
developer
owns
I
think
is
the
addresses
133,
Briarfield
I,
think
it's
on
the
west
side
and
that's
that
would
allow
ingress
and
ingress
to
the
property,
so
that
wouldn't
that
lot
basically
would
be
just
an
entry
and
exit
so
that
whoever
is
going
to
stay
at
these
short-term
rentals
could
go
in
there
and
park,
but
they
go
in
at
that
entrance.
They
go
out.
That
entrance.
Does
that
raise
an
issue
in
terms
of
the
fire
department
or
is
that
a
concern.
E
F
D
E
The
public,
but
they
can
go
in
and
observe,
and
at
that
time
it's
entirely
possible
based
on
what
you
just
said,
whether
you,
you
know
that
the
gyrations
that
go
through
determining
whether
you
need
a
second
point
of
ingress
or
egress,
you
may
be
possible
that
he
just
can't
make
the
numbers
work.
That's.
E
In
which
case
it'd
either
I
don't
know
if
he
I
don't
know
how
that's
gonna
be
situated
on
the
property.
That's
why
they
have
the
DRC.
That's
why
he
goes
to
the
DRC,
but
he
could
purchase
some
more
property
somewhere
adjacent
for
ingress
or
egress,
or
he
could
change
the
design.
Could
he
increase
the
number
of
floors?
The
height?
E
E
Currently
we
have
one
I,
think
one
person
that
is
tasked
with
kind
of
keeping
up
on
the
city's
and
monitoring
and
enforcing
short-term
rentals.
Would
that
be
accurate?
Yes,
sir,
and
it's
one
person
enough
again
you're
more
familiar
with
this
issue.
That
I'm
is
one
person
enough
to
do
all
this.
That
can
check
out
complaints
that
can
report
enforce,
etc.
Right.
M
Right
now,
he's
he's
been
able
to
do
the
job
he
and
I
spend
a
lot
of
time
together.
Going
over
questions
you
know
about.
Is
this
a
violation?
Is
it
not
a
violation?
What
we
need
to
do
to
bring
them
into
compliance,
so
I
spend
a
good
deal
of
time
with
him
discussing
that,
but
as
of
right
now,
with
the
number
of
units
that
we
have
approved,
yes
he's
been
able
to
do
the
job,
though.
C
E
And
probably
I
don't
know
when
we
first
got
into
this
short-term
rental
business.
There
was
much
discussion
for
those
who
weren't
around
at
the
time.
It
was
a
couple
of
years,
two
or
three
years
ago,
and
at
that
time
we
had
none
permitted
in
the
city
and
we
worked
through
a
lot
of
these
issues
and
it's
not
perfect,
but
folks
are
now
permitted
if
they
meet
the
requirements
they
qualifying
or
eligible
and
then
annually
they
have
to
provide
some
documentation.
E
That's
correct
in
order
to
get
that
permit
renewed
and
the
permit
is
$100
per
unit
right
right.
Yes,
sir
all
right.
So
if,
if
I
want
to
have
a
short-term
rental,
currently
as
long
as
I'm
zoned
appropriately
I
just
go
into
the
DRC
present
my
site
plan
get
it
approved,
we're
good
to
go.
Yes,
sir.
That's
correct
all
right!
Thank
you.
That
concludes
my
questions.
Finally,
thank.
A
You
thank
you
dr.
Tisdale.
Do
we
have
I've
looked
through
the
resolution
when
I
read
over
this
and
I'm
confused
about
the
products,
it
may
be
me,
but
I
can't
I
can't
decipher
from
the
exhibits
exactly
which
portion
of
property
B
is
good.
Copper
T
is
going
to
be
developed.
Is
there
any
way
we
can
put
it
on
the
screen.
E
J
J
M
A
A
A
Even
though
it's
not
a
tax
and
it's
a
penalty,
and
so
is
this
really
a
hotel
or
is
it
in
an
apartment
or
is
it
an
apartment,
getting
the
rules
to
act
like
a
hotel,
which
is
a
hotel
that
actually
could
be
a
apartments
if
it
wanted
to
so.
My
question
is:
are
we
in
this
because
he
doesn't
want
to
attempt
to
change
the
zoning
and
actually
comply
with
zoning
or
is
this?
A
A
Many
units
on
one
development-
it
should
be
a
hotel,
but
now
he
doesn't
have
to
do
certain
things,
because
it's
not
really
a
hotel,
even
though
it's
one
development
with
so
many
units
and
when
I
asked
about
making
exceptions
earlier.
It's
because
I
really
want
to
make
sure
that
we
were
applying
these
equally
and
there's
a
fair
application
with
the
spirit
of
what
our
intent
is
and
I.
Don't
know
that
our
intent
is
to
create
hotels
and
call
them
short-term
rental.
M
Not
sure
what
what
his
motivation
is
both
of
those
could
be
as
motivation
that
that
he
doesn't
want
to
go
through
the
the
zoning
change
which
would
require
public
hearing,
but
he
still
had
to
go
through
a
public
hearing
for
the
conditional
use.
So
you
know
that
doesn't
really
make
sense.
The
other
other
side
is
maybe
he
does
won't,
have
the
structure
built
so
that,
if,
for
whatever
reason
the
short-term
rental
doesn't
work
out,
he
can
always
revert
back
to
apartments
or
he
might
decide
at
some
point
to
do.
M
A
M
If
the
property
was
on
CB,
he
could
build
it
as
as
an
apartment
building,
but
he
could
use
it
as
he
used
by
right
or
short
term
rental.
So
I
don't
know
what
is
what
his
motivation
is
on
this,
but
I
do
know
that
you
know
we
we
haven't
I
will
say
and
in
in
planning.
You
know
if
it
looks
like
a
duck
quacks
like
a
duck
and
that's
the
reason
that
the
fire
department
in
the
building
department,
when
we
review
the
building
plans
on
this,
we're
going
to
look
at
it
as
a
hotel.
A
A
That's
what
I
was
getting
at
you
know
me
I'm
I'm,
probably
the
most
Pro
who'd
do
what
you
want
to
do
with
your
property
on
this
council.
However,
it
still
has
to
act
like
a
duck.
If
it's
a
duck
like
I,
said,
the
spirit
of
the
intent
has
to
hold
true
with
everything
that
we
apply
these
rules
to.
If
we're
going
to
apply
rules,
I
think
they
should
be
a
you
know,
apply
it
fairly.
I'm
gonna
open
the
floor
to
any
further
discussion.
M
B
M
True,
that's
true,
but
there's
not
a
requirement
in
the
ordinance
that
says
you
have
to
go
to
DRC
before
you
submit
a
request.
It's
the
same
way
with
with
the
zoning
change.
If
we
required
a
person
to
do
their
design
before
they
came
in
for
a
zoning
change
number
one
they're
going
to
spend
and
exorbitant
amount
of
money
putting
together
those
site
plans
and
building
plans
to
do
that,
and
they
just
don't
want
to
pay
that
investment
until
they're
at
least
comfortable.
That
they've
got
the
zoning
in
place
and
a
lot
of
times.
G
Giri
is
I,
had
someone
call
me
recently
about
a
project
in
this
area?
Is
this
the
same
guy
that
owns
the
rentals
on
the
beach?
No
okay,
different
perfect?
This
is
not
him.
My
second
question
is,
and
I've
had
to
step
out
the
room
for
just
a
second
on
identifying
this
property,
this
property,
the
only
Road
that
they
would
have
access
to,
would
be
Briarfield
correct
at
this
time.
G
Yes,
sir,
that's
correct,
I
was
just
looking
at
the
map
and
I
didn't
didn't,
couldn't
figure
it
out
completely
and
I
tend
to
agree
with
Robert
on
this
and
Dixie.
First
of
all,
he
doesn't
even
know
if
he
can
build
this
project
based
upon
the
one
entrance.
You've
got
to
have
two
entrances
based
upon
the
distance
from
the
you
know,
corners
of
the
property
I
think
that
I
don't
know
if
we
deny
it
or
from
my
my
standpoint,
I,
don't
know
if
we
deny
it
today
or
wait.
G
Maybe
we
table
this
until
we
know
more
as
to
intent
and
things
like
that
I
agree
with
Robert.
If
he's
gonna
basically
build
a
hotel,
this
is
the
wrong
process.
We
shouldn't
approve
or
deny
this
he
needs
to
apply
for
a
zoning
change
if
he's
going
to
build
a
hotel,
that's
that's
just
and
I'm
sort
of
in
the
same
boat
as
Robert
when
it
comes
to
short-term
rentals,
I've
been
very
pro
term
rental,
but
our
pro
short-term
rental,
but
I
just
built
I,
don't
think
Paul
hit
on
this
a
little
bit
earlier.
G
It
looks
to
me
like
he's,
trying
to
cheat
the
system
to
get
to
where
he's
trying
to
go
and
and
I.
You
know,
I
think
that
either
we
table
it
or
deny
it,
because
we
don't
know
all
the
facts
and
I
don't
believe
that
the
route
that
he's
taking
is
the
route
right
right
route
to
get
the
result
that
he
wants
just.
A
G
G
A
E
Yes,
I'd
prefer
we
go
ahead
and
deny
it
or
not,
approve
it
at
this
time
and
here's
why,
for
the
end
and
I
am
very
pleased
that
I
agree
with
you
and
Nathan,
because
we
know
that
happens
once
in
a
blue
moon,
don't
we?
Yes,
so
I'm
rethinking
my
position,
no,
no
I,
think
well
in
here
and
here's
why
I
say
that
we
started
with
same
developer.
Thank
you
bill
48
units,
sherry.
Yes,.
E
E
Somebody
wants
something
rezone
to
do
something
we
vote
on.
It
sure
we
approve
it
and
then
sometimes
what
happens
is
what
was
gonna
go.
There
doesn't
end
up
going
there.
It's
something
else
that
goes
there.
That
may
have
raised
an
issue
with
some
of
us,
but
it's
too
late
after
the
fact.
It
doesn't
happen
much,
but
it
happened.
Some
and
my
concern
here
is
that
if
we
table
it
right
now,
rather
than
deny
it
outright
or
not
approve
it
that.
E
I'll
just
leave
it
at
that
I
just
think
we
should
deny
it
at
this
point
so
I'm
on
the
same
page
with
you,
both
I
would
prefer
not
to
table
it.
I
would
prefer
to
not
approve
it
or
deny
it,
and
if,
mr.,
if
the
developer
wants
to
go
and
pursue
this,
then
let
him
go
about
it.
The
right
way,
which
is
what
should
have
been
done
before.
E
G
M
Well,
you
can
table
it
and
you
can
put
a
couple
of
different
stipulations
on
it.
You
can
say
we're
going
to
table
this
and
you
know
let
you
go,
get
a
zone
apply
for
a
zoning
change
or
you
could
table
it
until
he
goes
through
de
Arce
and
we
have
some
more
answers
to
the
questions
that
have
been
raised
today.
Now,
by
the
same
token,
I
have
to
inform
you.

What
he's
saying
is
we
can't
do
that
so
it'll
be
correct.
It's
on
the
table
via
Paul
Tisdale
in
a
second
by
Councilman,
Deming
and
there's
a
motion
to
table
subject
a
call
by
Councilman
guides
seconded
by
Councilman
Deming.
If
there's
no
further
discussion
on
this
motion,
the
table
subjects
a
call
which
could
be
after
the
DRC
opportunity
or
do
we
need
to
state
that
in
our
motion,
that's.
M
A
M
A
K
K
A
Saw
the
opportunity
cancellation
all
right,
any
other
discussion
on
the
motion
to
table
all
in
favor
signify
raise
your
hand
one.
We
have
three,
the
motion
fails,
it
was
Newman
guides
and
Deming
four
and
then
the
other
three
are
against.
So
it
does
not
gain
a
majority.
It
fails.
So
we're
back
to
the
actual.
A

O

Do
this
every
25
years
you
have
to
have
an
election
to
vote
on
your
power
company,
I,
guess
I!
Think
25
years
ago
the
vote
was
400
to
20,
but
but
there's
not
a
big
turnout,
but
they
will
pay
for
all
the
all
the
costs
of
the
election.
The
polling,
the
setting
everything
up
so
and
Mississippi
power
is
doing
this
in
I,
think
13
or
14
other
cities
simultaneously
with
this.
So
it's
it's
a
routine
matter.
It's
part
of
the
statutory
process
of
the
non-exclusive
franchise
that
we
voted
on
back
in
April.

This
is
a
follow
up
to
the
amendment
of
the
ordinance
we
did
last
year
about
allocation
of
the
gaming
tax
to
the
schools.
Currently,
the
10%
fee
is
divided
among
all
of
the
school
districts
in
Harrison
County
and
the
20%
fee
for
educational
purposes
is
distributed
to
Biloxi
school
district,
and
we
are
stating
for
the
next
fiscal
year
we're
going
to
follow
those
same
formulas
and
allocate
those
funds
the
same
way.
A
C
To
$272,000,
if
anybody
could
cooperate,
explain
exactly
what
we're
gonna
do
with
this
money.
It's
full
of
bees
to
help
the
people
with
the
short
term,
I
mean
a
short-term
rental
problem,
but
I
can't
afford
to
cut
that
clover
19,
and
this
is
really
money
that
we
just
utilizing.
That's
already
inside
of
the
CDBG
money,
correct.
Q
I'm
Susan
and
I'm
the
federal
programs
manager
for
the
city
of
Biloxi
we've
received
a
separate
allocation
of
the
cares,
Act
funds
of
272
through
our
entitlement
program
and
we're
partnered,
with
open
doors,
Homeless
Coalition
to
disperse
this.
These
funds
to
citizens
of
Biloxi
in
need
for
rental
assistance
and
utility
assistance
and
people
that
are
homeless
in
in
Biloxi,
that
need
to
be
quarantined,
moved
from
the
street
to
safe
housing
in.

For
the
fire
sprinkler,
some
issues
that
we
were
having
with
the
fire
sprinkler
system
and
also
too,
we
weren't
sure,
where
the
roof
drains
went
to
from
the
roof,
where
they
connect
underground,
instead
of
just
dumping
out
in
the
parking
lot.
So
it
was
some
money
to
camera,
those
and
kind
of
see
where
they're
connected
underground.
A
What's
that
hurry,
let
it
be
noted,
George
Lawrence,
is
out
of
the
room.
All
unfavourably
sticking
with
raise
your
hands
I'm
just
kidding
a
call
for
the
question
all
in
favor
motion
carries
unanimously.
There
are
some
exceptions,
though,
that
I'm
aware
of
I
am
I,
am
against
both
b-boy

Have
a
we
have
a
letter
from
the
state
giving
us
permission
to
cut
the
grass,
but
what
we're
doing
since
we
can't
really
build
a
state.
You
know
like
we
do
other
properties
we're
allowing
the
charges
the
cost
of
the
cleanup
to
accumulate
so
that
if
the
property
is
ever
recovered
by
someone,
then
those
charges
are
there
and
hopefully
the
city
would
be
able
to
recover
our
costs
that
we
expended.
