A
Saying
by
mr
guns,
any
discussion
all
in
favor.
Those
opposed
motion
carries
when
you
learn
the
mayor's
report.
No
report,
mr
mayor.
Thank
you,
mr
mayor
councillor
with
the
answer.
C
One
thank
you,
mr
mayor,
for
being
sure
some
property,
the
grass
was
cut.
Look
how
ecstatic
I
am
I've
never
been.
This
excited.
Welcome,
appreciate
your
efforts.
The
second
thing
is
just
a
reminder
for
those
folks
who
are
here
today
or
are
watching
the
video
and
have
to
look
lead
because
we're
still
working.
D
A
They
go
to
a
email
or
a
website
if
they
want
more
information
on
that.
A
Bart
okay
and
I
have
no
report
as
well,
we'll
move
on
to
the
public
agenda
citizen
comments.
We
have
a
total
lot
of
time
in
45
minutes.
You
have
up
to
three
minutes
to
speak
on
any
topic
that
you
would
like
to
speak
about
when
you're
called
upon
you'll
raise
your
hand
and
you're
recognized,
come
up
to
the
front
sign
in
legibly
your
name
and
your
address
and
stated
for
the
record
in
the
microphone
clearly.
So
we'll
start
on
my
left,
your
right.
Anyone
would
like
to
come
up
and
speak.
A
E
And
I
am
here
on
behalf
of
the
coastal,
mississippi,
mardi
gras
museum
and
I'd
like
to
recognize
some
of
our
board
members
that
are
present
with
us:
anna
harris
she's,
our
executive
director
and
dice
tammy
sanders
and
keith
williams,
so
they
are
with
us
today
you
all
we
came
and
spoke
to
you.
Then
you
received
the
information
that
we
mailed
to
you
about
a
letter
along
with
the
budget
and
our
information
and
the
finance
report.
E
F
Hi,
I'm
sarah
chris
lereski
from
the
harrison
county
library
system
and
the
address
for
headquarters
is
12135
old,
highway
49
in
gulfport,
and
I
would
just
like
to
reiterate
our
request
for
the
library's
increase
for
ten
thousand
dollars.
This
would
cover
about
five
thousand
dollars
of
that
covers
an
increase
in
the
wind
and
hail
contents,
insurance
for
the
west
biloxi
and
margaret
sherry
libraries
that
increased
a
great
deal
plus
the
other
branches
also
had
an
increase,
but
those
together
total
about
five
thousand
dollars.
F
The
rest
of
it
covers
increases
on
everything
else,
such
as
the
cost
of
books
and
and
the
cost
of
things
that
we
have
to
purchase
for
the
library.
So
almost
50
percent
of
it
is
is
insurance
and
the
rest
is
is
materials,
and
things
like
that.
So
I
hope
you
will
consider
this.
This
request
from
us-
and
I
know
that
we
are
a
large
expense
for
you
in
your
contribution
section,
but
I
do
feel
that
the
library
gives
you
a
really
excellent
return
on
your
investment.
F
We
had
over
30
000
items
closer
to
40
000
items
checked
out.
In
the
last
month,
we
had
over
25
000
visitors
to
the
library
last
month
over
5
500
uses
of
computers,
and
we
are
seeing
that
increase
each
month
over
last
year
as
we
come
back
from
cobit.
So
I
thank
you
for
your
time
and
I
hope
that
you
will
grant
our
budget
request.
H
G
Robin
david

oakland
place
in
biloxi.
I
think
I
passed
out
my
audit
and
a
letter
from
the
new
zealand
last
week
to
y'all
those
williams
and
marisa
just
completed
that.
G
18
400
as
a
20
increase
that
was
taken
away
from
us
back
in
2011.
They
decreased
our
management
agreement
by
20,
so
we
were
just
asking
if
you
would
put
that
back
in
our
management
agreement,
it
totals
18
400.,
it's
60
000
for
our
management
agreement.
It
was
24
000
for
the
advertising
on
the
sales
on
the
schooners
and
8
000
for
our
sea
sale.
Adventure
camp,
our
camp
this
summer
had
424
registrations.
G
G
Zeta
has
been
obligated,
but
we're
still
waiting
for
ida
to
get
obligated
and
there's
about
2.3
million
dollars
worth
of
damage
there.
We
are
responsible
for
10
of
that
total
female
coverage.
G
G
We
have
not
had
that
event
for
two
years
either,
so
we
will
be
inducting,
probably
about
50
people
into
our
heritage
hall
of
fame.
In
october,
our
schools,
one
of
them,
has
been
really
busy
this
summer.
The
other
one
is
only
yard,
it
has
terrible.
Termite
damage
had
to
be
tuned
and
irrigated,
and
hopefully
it's
coming
off
the
yard
in
about
a
few
more
weeks,
just
to
show
you
how
busy
the
one
scanner
was.
G
In
july
we
had
29
trips
and
680
passengers
just
for
the
month
of
july.
So
captain
captain
o'keefe
was
super
busy
running
skinner.
G
A
I
District,
the
district
serves
the
whole
county
in
many
ways,
but
particularly
for
the
city
of
biloxi.
I
think
the
best
thing
we
can
do
for
you
is
to
just
to
help
you
get
your
emergency
watershed
protection
funds
through
the
nrcs,
which
is
erosion,
control
things
like
that
that
have
to
do
with
mitigating
those
problems.
I
I
Our
work
far
exceeds
our
pay
grade
because
we're
all
volunteers,
in
fact-
and
we
love
doing
this-
we
all
are
very
experienced
in
natural
resources
and
somewhat
in
education
as
well.
We're
asking
you
for
fifteen
thousand
dollars
to
support
our
program
among
the
educational
things
we
do.
Is
we
help
establish,
butterfly
gardens?
As
you
may
know,
this
area
behind
me
is
the
first
stop
for
butterflies.
I
I
come
here
from
mexico
and
we
like
to
be
sure,
they're
well
fed,
and
we
have
several,
for
example,
in
hiller
park,
we
have
a
butterfly
garden
that
we
helped
with.
We
have
a
poster
contest
for
kids.
Our
goal
is
to
is
to
have
these
children
through
the
education
system,
be
conscious
of
the
importance
of
conserving
our
natural
resources,
clear
water,
clean
air,
healthy
soils,
the
most
important
thing.
So
we
do
that
through
that
the
poster
contest
is
fun.
We
had
one
recently
about
butter
pollinators
and
we
have
some
butterfly
posters,
they're
beautiful.
I
A
Okay,
stacy,
you
have
anything
you
would
like
to
come
up
or
just
want
to
be
recognized
all
right.
All
right,
we'll
go
ahead
and
close
citizen's
comments.
We'll
move
on
to
the
policy
agenda.
The
clerk
will
read
the
topic.
A
Okay,
the
chair
would
like
to
for
the
council
members
to
consider-
maybe
we'll
start
with
non-departmental
line
item
by
line
item.
K
Can
I
hear
it
I'd
like
to
go
back
to
the
surface
here
and
head
back
to
1844.
K
A
A
Okay,
do
you
want
to
speak
on
the
scene
on
this
line
adam
or
is
there
a
problem
if
we
well.
B
I
thought
we'd,
you
know
kind
of
agreed
to
keep
the
you
know
the
number
that
was
a
one
times.
I
understood
it.
Last
year
it
was
a
one-time
charge
of
18-4
to
help
some
things,
but
you
know
it's
y'all's
call.
You
know
everything
that
we
do
here.
B
Suddenly
you
know
these
numbers
are
not
extraordinary.
I
mean
just
part
of
the
consideration
when
they
total
up.
You
know.
We've
got
a
lot
of
things
to
do.
I've
written
both
those
numbers
down
for
conservation,
as
well
as
the
18th,
so
kind
of
having
a
total
of
what
requests
have
been
made.
We've
already.
B
Mardi
gras
and
the
library
too
so
we're
tallying.
B
You
know
the
whole
situation
is,
as
it
spreads
to
combine
upon
a
statement
and
that's
the
consideration
so.
A
Thank
you,
mr
mayor
councilman.
I
know
you
just
walked
in,
but
we're
discussing
the
seafood
museum.
A
The
consensus
is
unanimous
at
this
point
to
increase
their
budget
for
this
year
from
736
to
92
000,
and
that's
basically
adding
the
184
that
they
got
last
year
and
we're
just
wondering
if
you
have
any
comments
on
okay,
not
at
this
time.
I
just
thought
the
record
shows
that
the
council
members
recommend
increasing
the
seafood
industry
museum's
proposed
budget,
another
18-4
move
on
to
any
other
items.
L
And
so
I
propose
to
put
that
there
on
the
side
put
that
there
to
give
us
an
opportunity
to
bring
workers
aboard
the
city
of
biloxi,
which.
A
B
Look
you
let
me
and
also
what's
the
job.
You
know:
training
electrical
crafts
and
those
other
kinds
of
things.
I've
been
operating
at
the
a
mother,
soros
school
site
and
again
it's
something
that
I
think
it's
it's
felt
the
performance
would
be
there
and
they
could
go
after
some
additional
grants
and
growth
to
add
those
job
skills
into
our
biloxi
community.
A
B
K
A
N
N
We
also
had
another.
C
A
This
is
my
thoughts
on
it.
You
know,
I
think
we
need
to
give
them
one
more
shot
at
this
and
see
how
viable
that
they
are.
I
know
they
ran
through
something
ran
into
some
hiccups
with
covet
a
couple
years
ago
themselves.
They
did
hold
an
event
this
year.
The
plans
are
to
hold
on
again
again
if
for
some
reason
they
don't,
we
can
always
re-uh.
A
Do
a
budget
amendment
with
this
amount
and
return
it
to
where
it
needs
to
be
redistributed
to,
and
maybe
an
area
of
need,
but
I
I
would
recommend
you
know
it's
a
it's
a
very
good
tourism-driven
event
and
I'd
recommend
keeping
it
maybe
for
one
more
year.
B
I
agree,
I
think
it's
you
know,
there's
some
questions
on
on
the
you
know
the
long-term
play
with
rapid
scan
and
some
of
those
as
I've
had
conversation
with
them.
I
think
we've
given
one
more
shot
and
then-
and
you
know
last
year
as
far
as
the
change
of
venue
could
have
impacted
some
things
and.
A
But
I
think,
there's
a
question
on
the
future
and
I
think
we
should
stay
at
this
level
and
I
want
to
throw
one
more
thing.
They
have
an
event
called
birdies,
they
gotta
like
bodies
for
charity
and
they
contribute
they
raise
quite
a
bit
of
funding
that
we
used
to
support
some
of
these
charities.
A
O
B
D
A
O
B
Clarification:
okay,
we're
looking
at
the
forecaster
budget.
What
what
is
the
net
to
each
one
of
those
items
like
182,
which
is
now
10.?
You
want
to
reduce
that
to
5.
A
D
E
B
E
C
D
C
Right
now,
since
then,
community
development
block
grant
is
going
to
be
providing
them
with
ten
thousand.
Since
money
is
going
to
be
scarce
in
all
these
non-departmentals,
I
would
suggest
reducing
one
of
those
two
items
each
listed
at
twenty
thousand
to
ten
thousand
dollars
pick
pick,
which
one
it
doesn't
make
any
difference
to
me.
B
N
Q
It's
a
new
request
that
we
received
this
agency
is
now
located
on
cowen,
road
in
gulfport,
I
believe,
prior
to
a
storm.
It
could
have
been
katrina,
not
certain.
They
did
have
an
area
in
biloxi
as
well
and
they're
soliciting
for
help
with
the
change
in
the
row
opinion
that
they're
going
to
have
to
help
more
women.
D
B
N
B
M
A
K
B
In
past
years,
we
were
doing
something
like
5
000
each
I
think,
and
we
had
no
documentation
of
requests
or
anything
like
that,
and
I
think
that's
how
it
got
dropped
out
of
the
schedule.
Yeah
we
didn't
know.
I
think
that
at
one
of
the
two
or
three
workshops
we
talked
about
now
in
departmental
again,
you
know
your
case
is
made.
I
think.
A
A
A
Exactly
the
programs
that
are
identified
like
some
of
the
other
non-departmental
requests
would
be,
and
if
something
comes
in
that
it
needs
to
be
addressed,
we
can
do
it
individually.
K
B
Throughout
the
city,
is
this
building
the
evaluation
of
the
electrical
alignment
and
and
some
of
the
ac
guy,
you
know
control
systems
that
was
guaranteed
through
mda
to
save
us
2.
K
B
K
A
K
P
B
D
K
K
B
K
K
B
B
B
K
K
D
N
Terminal
terminal
so
understand
if
you,
if
you
can
support
100
000.
C
Increase,
I
do
and
remember
this
would
have
been
an
increase
we
dealt
with
last
year,
but
they
were
able
to
secure
a
grant
to
cover
our
100
000.
Do
they
plan
to
increase
revenue?
I
think
you
heard
yeah.
They
have
plans
to
increase
revenue.
They
can't
do
everything
this
year,
but
just
understand
that
you're
going
to
be
cutting.
B
That
would
be
directly
reflecting
next
year's
ask
for
cta
in
the
city
of
birexi.
I've
asked
for.
B
A
So
I
don't
think
at
this
point
you
know
reduction
as
far
as
numbers
hundred
thousand
lines.
A
Next
year,
if
they're
successful
we're
going
to
be
on
top
of
what
they're
going
to
do
if
they're
successful
and
it's
coming
here-
and
that
will
be
reflected
in
what
the
ask
will
be
next
year,
but
it
is
to
have
a
reduction
in
service
to
the
people
who
need
this
service.
It's
going
to
be
strong
if
they
have
to
reduce
the
route.
So
I
would,
if
you're
asking
me,
I
would
support
this.
This
increase
this.
B
A
Okay,
thank
you
mayor
my
thought
to
this.
I
I
kind
of
agree
with
councilman
guys
and
councilman
lawrence
that
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
is
a
big
big
amount.
Maybe
fifty
thousand
is
too
deep
of
a
disc
of
a
cut,
so
I
I
know,
god
counter
proposing
reducing
it.
A
C
C
C
N
P
O
D
D
A
I
don't
think
we
have
a
clear
consensus
in
reducing
cta,
as
I
hear
it
at
best
it's
3-3,
so
I
don't
think
there's
a
clear
consensus
on
reducing
it,
so
it
looks
like
we'll
keep
it
the
same.
Despite
some
some
objections
from
at
least
half
of
the
council.
That's
present
today.
A
A
A
That's
right
now,
if
there's
some
activity
that
would
reflect
their.
B
Grand
anticipation
and
some
other
things
that
they
are
successful
with,
I
mean
nothing
to
say
you
can't
revise
that
budget
down.
You
know
gotcha,
oh,
you
can't
knock
me.
You
know
what
I'm
saying,
but
I
think
from
a.
A
Planning
standpoint,
it
should
be
left
at
100
at
this
point
in
time,
and
then
you
should
be
on
top
of
the
issues,
and
you
know
I
remember
on
that
board-
keep
the
prize
of
success
every
quarter
would
be.
I
think.
A
I
got
a
comment
kenny
if
you're
ready
yeah,
but
please.
C
A
A
I
don't
know
if
they've
added
additional
managers
or
whatever,
but
or
what
those
pay
increases
look
like,
but
we're
just
asking
to
be
a
little
bit
more
creative
on
the
marketing
side
and
on
the
expense
control
side.
Mr
guns,.
L
Yeah
and
speaking
with
george,
like
I
said,
as
long
as
we
give
if
we
get
a
report
back
from
the
ridership,
we'll
go
ahead
and
go
put
the
whole
100
100
extra
100
000
in
the
budget.
Okay,.
A
To
become
competitive
with
mechanics
and
to
keep
the
buses
running
and
efficient
and
all
that
kind
of
kind
of
stuff
any
of
the
salaries
increase
for
managers
or
on
the
executive
side,
or
did
you
add
any
managers
or
executives
in
the
last
12
months?
No
sir,
we
did
not
add
any
management
staff,
bus
drivers
and
mechanics
because
we
were
losing
them
and
we
were
about
to
not
be
able
to
operate
service.
So
we
had
to
raise
pay
and
fta
absorbs
most
of
that.
I
A
I
K
A
I
could
get
the
money
somewhere
else.
I
certainly
would
we're
bringing
80
percent
to
the
table
now,
but
there's
just
no
other
source
at
the
moment
of
additional
revenue
to
fund
it
to
fund
a
budget
cut
of
25,
000
or
or
or
you
know
not
allowing
what
we're
asking
for
25
000
there's
no
way
to
make
that
up
short
of
a
service
cut
we're
going
to
have
to
cut.
We
already
have
bare
bone
service
in
your
community
over
the
years
to
save
money,
cut,
cut
and
there's
really
nothing.
I
I
A
A
A
A
K
P
F
A
A
A
I
work
for
the
community,
I
know,
but
it
seems
to
be
unfair
if
we're
bearing
the
burden
of
certain
segments
of
the
industry,
namely
the
casinos
that,
as
your
manager
reported
to
this
council,
that
there's
a
large
portion
that
used
this
service
and
and
they're
not
compensating
you
know
for
that
or
any
way
shape
or
form
and
we're
providing
that
service
to
keep
that
casino
worker
and
other
workers.
I
get
that,
but
a
large
portion
is
a
casino
worker
and
the
the
casinos
are
not
contributing
their
fair
share.
That's
y'all's
words
that
y'all
have
used.
A
You
know
not
mine
and
to
not
have
a
fair
increase
in
eight
years
when
everything
else
is
increasing,
with
inflation
and
wages
are
increasing
as
well,
and
it
just
seems
to
be.
You
know
it
doesn't
seem
to
make
sense.
Our
consumer
citizens
are
paying
more
of
the
percentage
of
the
operating
costs
in
any
transit
system
in
the
southeast,
because
there's
no
free
transfers.
I.
I
A
A
A
We
don't
think
to
greatly
exceed
that
to
the
amount
five
offset
dollars
in
local
match,
so
revenue
is
not
dollar
for
dollar
anyway.
Fear
box
revenue.
We've
discussed
that
before
there's
a
formula
that
you
use,
you
take
your
gross
operating
costs
and
you
deduct
the
fare
box
revenue
and
whatever
left
federal
transit
funds
50.
A
A
You've
explained
that
I
understand
it,
but
it's
a
piece
of
the
puzzle
as
we
go
forward.
I
know
that
some
of
the
council
members
speak,
but
I
just
want
to
throw
one
more
thing
out
there.
If,
as
councilman
guyan
suggested,
we
can
allocate
a
hundred
thousand
766
and
say
you
got
75
000
to
work
with
if
you
fall
short,
the
other
we'll
go
ahead
and
put
that
in
a
contingency,
and
is
that
doable?
And
you
know
from
your
standpoint:
no
no.
P
A
A
A
F
A
We're
under
budget
okay,
if
we're
over
budget,
we
absorb
that
things
happen.
Pandemics,
happen
record
40-year,
inflation
rates
happen.
So
we
don't
come
back
to
the
council.
We
don't
come
back
to
the
mirror
and
say
we're
500
000
over
budget.
We
need
more
money,
and
so,
if
we're
under
budget
and
the
budgets
typically
are
very
tight
within
two
or
three
percent,
our
expense
budget
is
usually
within
two
or
three
percent.
A
M
A
Budget
and
blew
the
budget
and
and
this
estimated
whatever
the
case
may
be,
I
would
expect
you
to
even
entertain
us
coming
back
and
asking
for
more
money.
So
if
we
were
a
little
bit
under
budget
and
we
didn't
and
we
didn't
spend
all
of
that
local
match,
I
understand
the
commodity
museum
and
their
utilities
that
we
just
discussed.
A
K
L
The
pandemic,
that's
why
that
didn't
happen.
So
it
was
a
reason
why
that
didn't
happen.
But
of
course
you
did
that
because
of
past
experience
and
of
course
that's
what
a
lot
of
guys
up
here
and
what
we
don't
want
to
do
is
we
don't
want
to
do
a
major
increase
and
then
getting
a
deduction
like
once
before
that
has
happened
so
we're
looking
into
we
want
ridership,
we
want
to
have
people
protect
it,
and
we
know
that
our
people
depend
on
that
service.
L
But,
of
course
you
know
again,
we
don't
want
to
feel
like
we're
doing
what
they
call
played
in
a
situation
like
that.
So
so
that's
why
we
did
the
allocation,
and
I
know
you
remember
very
well-
you
just
don't
want
to
go
down
that
road
again,
and
so
I'm
okay
with
it.
I'm
okay!
Let
me
finish:
I'm
okay
with
it,
I'm
okay
with
it,
but
the
thing
that
is
increase
and
then
get
short,
then
get
cut
short
in
the
long
run,
and
I'm
just
being
frank
about
it,
and
you
know
what
I'm
talking
about.
H
A
I
C
My
only
accounting
would
be
just
do
we
have
a
consensus
at
an
additional
hundred
thousand
dollars.
L
We're
gonna
we're
gonna.
Take
I'm
gonna.
Take
the
mayor's
recommendation.
Okay
on
this
one,
all
right.
A
K
I
noticed
the
the
expertise
out
there
this
year
and
the
year
before
they
asked
for
twenty
two
dollars
for
computers.
Did
you
all
buy
the
computer.
K
K
F
We
we
never
received
the
full
amount
that
we
requested
for
the
computers,
but
our
friends
of
the
library
did
contribute
10
000
to
complete
that
purchase
over
time.
We
have
had
increased
expenses,
as
everyone
else
does,
and
y'all
recall.
Last
year
we
asked
for
the
increase
to
pay
for
raises
because
our
people
were
making
8.26
an
hour.
I
checked
y'all's
website
and
job
listings
and
it
looks
like
your
base.
Pay
is
around
12.50,
I
could
be
mistaken,
but
there
were
no
jobs
under
that
amount.
F
That
will
help
pay
for
the
increase
in
costs
and
materials,
and
everything
else
that
we
have
to
purchase
to
run
for
libraries
is
not
a
huge
amount
and-
and
I
know
that
you
have
to
be
careful
with
your
funds,
their
taxpayer
funds,
but,
like
I
said
earlier,
we
are
a
big
expense,
but
we
are
a
wonderful
return
on
your
investment.
We
serve
people
who
are
looking
for
jobs
applying
for
jobs
who
don't
have
computers
at
home.
F
F
F
F
We
have
access
to
usually
around
nine
to
ten
thousand
dollars
in
what
there's
called
federal,
lsta
grants
and
we
apply
for
those
every
year
received
fifty
thousand
dollars
in
our
money
that
we
use
to
purchase
a
courier
van,
because
our
van
was
about
10
years
old,
with
about
200
000
miles
on
it.
So
we
bought
a
25
000
van
with
that
and
then
purchased.
You
know
other
materials
and
things
like
that
with
the
additional
money.
So
we
apply.
We
look
for
pursuer
and
writer
and
I
anything
that
I
find
that
is
suitable.
F
I
go
after
there
is
almost
never
grant
funding
for
personnel,
or
anything
like
that
is.
It
is
for
materials
it
might
be
for
for
computers
or
equipment,
but
there
is
not
much
funding
out
there
for
libraries
we
are
not
a
non-profit,
so
we
can't
go
for
many
grants
that
require
one
to
be
a
501
we're
out
of
501
we're
a
government
entity.
So
we
are
limited
in
certain
ways
on
grants,
but
we
do
pursue
any
and
every
opportunity.
K
D
N
And
I
I
don't
see
why
we
can't.
A
F
D
All
know
it
costs
everything
costs
more,
but
on
the
policies
and
procedures
have
you
guys
came
up
with
that.
Yet.
F
K
A
All
right,
I
got
all
that
divisions
on
non-departmental,
we'll
move
on
to
other
items
of
the
budget,
any
any
changes
or
any
thoughts
on
the
revenues.
No,
I
think.
B
Those
are
what
they
are
on
this
document.
You
have
a
schedule
there
I
think
from
high
to
low,
and
things
are
reflective
of
the
last
couple
of
work
sessions.
We've
had
diane
nothing's
changed.
I
think
nothing
has
changed
so.
A
Just
to
verify
that
that's
the
amount
that
we're
starting
with
okay,
other
questions
about
the
revenues
when
we're
going
to
just
go
down
the
departments
once
again
to
do
a
clean
scrub
of
this
we'll
start
with
administration.
Any
questions.
Anybody
have
anything
on
administrative
budget.
I
know
we've
spoken
about
it
in
other
budget
meetings,
but
does
anyone
have
anything
they're
going
to
add
to
administration.
A
The
proposed
change
is
a
reduction
of
55
000..
Anyone
have
any
comments
on
the
executive
budget
yeah.
I
may.
D
Now
is
their
day
is
occupied
during
doing
their
work.
D
C
Q
A
C
C
C
We
keep
working
it
out;
eventually
they
approve
it.
So
that's
time
intensive!
My
again,
my
point
is
that
there's
somebody
over
there
in
hr
that
can
do
that
now,
terrific,
but
it's
going
to
be
time
intensive
and
it's
going
to
be
an
issue
that
they've
not
really
dealt
with
before
it's
just
somebody's
going.
B
B
Is
you
know,
their
goal
in
life
is
to
be
sort
of
an
advocate,
but
you
want
a
dedicated
person
that
you
know
based
on
you
know,
benefits
costs
that
sort
of
thing
that
we
could
it
that's
not
reflective
in
this
budget,
but
it's
something
we
could
look
at
between
now
and
the
end
of
the
year
as
we
as
we're
doing
some
other
things.
B
I
mean
physical
calendar
year,
but
again
there
were
tasks
to
be
an
advocate,
I
think,
is
what
diane
is
saying
now
we
can
do
well,
we'll
do
better
if
we
need
to
you
know,
increase
the
resources.
A
C
How
this
is
supposed
to
work
if
they
can
provide
that
support
in
hr?
That's
terrific,
I
don't
know
that
they
can
y'all
would
have
a
better
feel
for
it
than
I
would,
and
certainly
the
employees
would,
but
it's
hard
for
them
to
know
who
to
call
if
nobody's
saying,
here's
who
you
deal
with
on
these
issues
when
they
arise.
A
If
you
know,
if
you
look
at
the
number
of
incidents
like
in
police
and
fire,
if
the
number
of
incidents
on
a
weekly
monthly
basis
dictate
that
we
should
have
conditions,
I
can
get
you
that
date.
If
you
need
it
I'll,
be
happy
to
provide
it.
Thank
you
all
right.
Thank
you,
mr
tuesday.
I
think
this
is
a
discussion
to
simply
say
there
may
be
a
need,
or
maybe
we
can
use
existing
personnel
just
to
make
them
aware
that
the
allocation
they
maybe
respond
better
than
just
saying
here's.
A
The
number
on
the
card
on
the
back
of
the
insurance
card,
all
right,
nothing,
on
executive,
move
on
the
legislative,
I
don't
have
anything
to
add
legislative.
I
think
we
made
some
revisions
during
our
discussion.
There's
an
increase
of
26.94.
Q
C
Q
N
D
D
C
A
A
I
did
look
into
some
of
the
at
least
the
fines
in
the
situation
like
that.
90
of
all
the
citations
and
fines
are
on
payment
plans,
so
they're
sort
of
slow,
slow
pay.
A
We're
still
sort
of
in
that
same
holding
pattern.
I
think
we've
collected
a
few
more
fines,
because
the
the
collection
agency.
A
B
It's
not
so
much
the
fines,
it's
the
collection
of
the
fines
after
it's
been
through
the
process,
and
I
think
that's
what
the
third
party
involvement
has
shown.
Some
results
in
doing
a
better
job
before
its
collection
and
what
the
judges
have.
You
know
decreed.
A
Yeah
I
mean
three
years
ago:
we
had
no
collection
agency
at
all
and
so
and
as
part
of
the
aclu
case,
a
lot
of
the
old
fines
were
wiped
off
the
books
as
part
of
that
settlement.
So
it's
a
matter
of
the
fines
that
have
been
assessed
since
then,
going
forward,
there's
less
of
funds
because
there's
less
arrests
and
less
citations,
but
everybody.
A
Fined
we
always
have
them
on
a
payment
plan
in
the
old
days.
If
somebody
got
picked
up
for
not
making
payments,
they
got
a
little
bit
of
treatment
of
going
to.
A
As
far
as
how
funds
can
be
collected,
we're
not
waving
the
fans,
we're
not
we're,
not
liking
what
he
finds
out.
It's
just.
A
Citations,
the
fines
that
aren't
being
assessed
or
on
payment
plans
and
a
lot
of
the
folks
that
that
are
fine.
They
don't
have
the
ability
just
to
write,
write
out
a
check
for
500..
A
They
have
the
right,
based
on
their
their
financial
status,
to
enter
into.
K
K
A
We
did
kind
of
talk
about
this
theoretically
last
year,
and
I
mean
the
municipal
court
is
not
a
business
to
make
a
profit
on
the
job
is
to
do
justice.
Let
me
finish
engineering,
I
don't
know
what
kind
of
profits
engineering
makes.
I
don't
know
if
public
works
makes
a
profit
on
anything,
but
it
is
a
department
that
we
that's
it's
run
based
on
the
workload
that
each
of
those
employees
have
to
process
these
things
through
the
system.
A
I
A
B
B
Is
significant?
We
just
can't
avoid
it.
I
mean
everybody,
you
know
nobody
wants
to
lose
money
and
we're
going
to
do
the
best
we
can
so
it
started
under
third,
and
so
we
lose.
You
know,
1.9
million
and,
of
course,
when
you're
playing
the
courts.
A
Yeah
I
mean,
for
example,
last
month
last
month,
or
so
one
of
our
franchise
contracts
is
unity.
They
just
have
a
small,
a
small
stretch
along
division
street
and
they've
been
paying
us
for
years,
whatever
they
felt
like
they
owed,
and
we
decided
to
do
an
audit
of
them
which
were
entitled
to
do
under
the
contract
and
found
out.
They
were
taking
something
called
a
broadband
credit
and
we
dug.
A
A
You
know
we're
grateful
that
we've
got
somebody
leading
a
legal
team
that.
B
Has
recovered
billions
of
dollars
and
so
and
again.
B
It's
a
heavy-duty
operation,
we're
appreciative
of
moving
forward
with
this
budget.
C
C
Hear
it
from
employees
who
are
trying
to
deal
with
these
issues,
it's
just
very
it
doesn't
seem
like
we're
getting
any
traction,
and
I
know
that
there
are
other
cities,
I'm
sure
that
are
in
the
same
situation
as
we
are.
I
don't
know
if
any
of
that
are
successful
or
unsuccessful.
I
just
know
if
we
keep
doing
what
we,
what
we've
been
doing,
we're
going
to
keep
getting,
what
we're
getting
and
it's
just
it's
a
cons.
It's
a
concern.
C
If
we're
trying
to
grow
our
tourist
population
and
have
more
people
mobile
throughout
the
city,
they
want
to
feel
safe
and
some
of
these
folks
contribute
to
the
trash
and
litter
issue.
It's
just.
There
are
a
number
of
things
that
hang
together,
but
that's
just
a
concern
that
I
don't
think
we've
grappled
with.
D
Effectively
enough,
I
don't
know
if
it's.
C
D
Can
get
away
with
constant
being
a
constant
nuisance
under.
D
I
am,
but
it's
just
it'd
be
great
if
we
could
really
get
something
going
here.
D
N
A
Guides
newman,
mr
tisdale.
Yes,
sir
budget,
how
much
money
are
you
budgeting.
C
A
A
We're
going
to
parks
and
work
only
9,
900
director,
you
want
to
sit
in
the
hot
seat
just
in
case
there's
a
question
or
two,
mr
barrett
I'll.
Let
you
go
first,
anything
for
parks
and
rec.
D
C
B
Part
of
the
bond,
the
excess
of
the
aj,
however
complex
with.
A
J
Yeah
we
thought
it
was
going
to
be
less,
but
by
the
time
you
do
all
the
duct
work
that
and
go
in
there
and
clean
up
all
the
other
areas
where
the
rust
has
eroded
and
all
and
that's
what's
been
getting
into.
The
pool.
Jamie
talked
to
the
guy
and
he
said
about
fifty
thousand
dollars
to
replace
everything.
D
J
A
Come
back
to
you,
I
got
a
question
director
and
mr
tisdale
made
a
reference
to
adult
physical
fitness
equipment.
We
see
the
you
know
the
grants
that
we
get
or
the
donations
we
get
from
different
organizations
on
the
playground,
equipment
for
smaller
children.
Are
there
grants
for
these
other
adult,
maybe
or
older
kids
or
an.
A
J
J
A
So
the
reason
I
bring
it
up,
you
have
a
couple
of
a
pretty
good
old-time
tournament
that
matina
is
promoting
and
we
went
out
there
and
looked
at
the
fields
and
everything,
and
that
was
actually
a
topic
of
discussion.
Or
is
there
anything
going
to
be
done
to
these
fields
prior
to
them?.
N
A
A
L
Yeah
I've
been
down
the
grid
center.
There
was
some
fencing
down.
Has
that
been
put
in
the
budget
to
repair
that.
B
A
B
J
A
B
C
C
A
To
maintain
our
debt
service
is
is
in
a
position
that
I'm
comfortable
with,
and
I
think.
C
A
When
we
pass
this
budget,
we
have
all
these
conversations,
then
we're
going
to
rock
and
roll
and
spend
that
seven
or
seven
minutes
for
recreation
and
seven
million
for
the
projects
that
we've
done
on
the
list
and
we've
applied
for
the.
So
that
would
be
our
next
order
of
business
by
that
time.
At
least
you
know
in
october
time
frame,
we'll
know
what
has
been
asked.
B
For
as
far
as
we've
got,
30
million
or
so.
B
A
A
Director,
I
just
had
one
more
comment
and
then
you
can
step
down.
I
was
speaking
to
a
coach
with
the
new
biloxi
bombers
and
he
was
telling
me
they're
all
willing
to
adopt
a
field,
and
I
know
there's
other
coaches
in
here
nick.
I
know
there's
other
coaches
in
here
nick,
I
know,
there's
other
coaches
in
here,
listening,
but
perhaps
other
coaches
with
the
tribe
and
and
can
adopt
the
field
as
well,
and
that
might
help
out
with
some
of
the
maintenance
or
maintaining
some
of
some
of
these
fields.
A
Maybe
there's
a
contest
between
the
police
department,
fire
department,
who
can
volunteer
to
keep
the
fields
a
field
that
you
adopt
in
the
best
condition,
and
then
you
win
a
prize
or
something
I
don't
know:
okay,
we'll
go
ahead
and
move
on
to
the
police
department.
I
do
want
to
note.
I
do
want
to
note
that
there
is
a
proposed
change
of
over
a
million
dollars.
A
Significant
amount
is
in
the
compensation
and
pay
and
as
in
both
police
and
fire,
I
think
there's
been
a
commitment
to
say
we
are
the
best
on
the
coast
and
you
should
be
compensated
as
such.
So
that's
that's
a
big
reason
for
these
increases.
Yes,
any
questions.
B
Far
as
personal
services
and
in
both
of
our
first
responders-
and
we
depend
on
that-
and
the
success
of
biloxi
depends
on
safe
flowing
and
beautiful
again,
you
can
comparisons
to
other
departments.
Primarily
the
increase
is
related
to
to
be
able
to
say
that
we
are
the
best.
I
think
what
has
been
proposed
in
this
budget
is
putting
on
patrol
our
first
first
class.
B
To
state
of
mississippi
compensation
chief
howard,
if
we're
wrong,
but
we
bumped
that
after
you've
been
a
year
or
so
in
first
class,
it
would
structure
that
that
bottom,
you
know
pay
at
53
too,
did
that
right
and
then
the
structure
you
know
from
sergeant
lieutenant
captain
howard
was
increased.
Also,
that's
the
nuts
and
bolts
of
the
increase
that
you
see
in
personal
services,
as
well
as
some
insurance
that
has
been
there.
B
But
again,
our
whole
move
is
to
to
get
that
where
we're
competitive
and
to
say,
if
you're,
a
baseball.
A
Policeman
biloxi
that
you're
on
the
top
of
the
heap.
As
far
as
for
sure
there's.
B
A
H
We
have
several
that
they're
in
different
stages.
Some
are
we
have
about
four
in
the
academy
now
a
couple
scheduled
to
go
to
the
academy,
and
then
we
have
several
that
are
in
the
hiring
process
still
start
trying
to
get
there.
H
H
K
H
That's
right,
I
don't
know
of
any
police
department
in
the
nation.
That's
not
not
suffering,
loss
of
officers.
B
Way
we
approach
that
and
where
I
would
like
to
approach
that
this
year.
B
Where
we
are
position,
you
know
relative
to
gain
a
loss
and
the
opportunities
will
will
shape
out.
I
believe.
B
A
B
For
what
they
do,
some
questions
that
might
come.
A
B
A
K
I
Up
and
so
whatever
we
have
to
do.
D
A
L
A
B
Places
and
we
see
employees
up
to
their
chest,
sometimes
up
to
their
chin,
and
you
know
the
things
we're
looking
at
and
doing
some
point
in
time.
If
we're
not,
you
know
in
the
right.
A
B
Is
taken,
but
it's
so
critical
at
a
critical
time
for
people
you
know,
so
I
I'm
well
aware
of
that,
and
we
have
some
ideas
as
far
as
public
works
and
utilities
that
we're
exploring
again
trust.
D
H
I
know
of
500
000
right
now.
R
B
C
C
A
good
number
is
there
any
way
we
can
possibly
afford.
18
nope
I'll,
take
the
humidifier
over
the
new.
Well,
we
control
us
all
right.
D
So
let
me
ask
you
guys:
okay,
all
right,
let
me
ask
about
this,
is
that
for
sworn
officers
only.
C
D
And
so
it's
so
it's
if
I'm
a.
B
B
The
main
focus
was
at
patrolman
first
class.
You
have
two
steps.
Third
class
becomes
second
class
becomes
first
class.
Then
we
preserve
the
steps
in
between
you
know
all
the
way
up
to
him
and
yeah
right.
C
L
And
I
think
it
might
be
time
for
us
to
kind
of
look
at
some
of
those
positions,
especially
like
you
said
those
guys
are
up
to
here
and
what
they're
making
and
we
may
have
to
go
through
an
assessment
program
of
assessing
these
positions.
Again
because,
like
I
said
we're
losing
people
by
the
days
and
then
it
goes
like
the
fire
department,
you
know,
starting
with
the
chief
just
looking
at
the
positions
and
making
sure
they
get
what
they're
worth
and
things
like
that.
A
Again
again,
both
those
departments
for
public
works.
We
have
some,
I
think,
creative
things
that
would
inspire
and
lead
us.
You
know
accomplish
what
we
want.
You
know
the
adjustment,
the
compensation,
so
people
are
enthusiastic
about
coming
to
work
and
staying
at
the
city
of
biloxi
100.
You
know
in
favor
of
you
know
by
that
time,
you'll
know
how
september
october
and
november
and
guessing
and
projecting
our
you
know
our
folks
here
sitting
at
the
table
help
you
know.
A
Thank
you
all
right,
we'll
move
on
to
the
fire
department.
Thank
you.
Chief,
move
on
to
the
fire
department
budget.
We
have
a
proposed
increase
of
two
million
dollars,
looks
like
nearly
a
million
and
a
half
is
compensation
and
again,
I
think,
there's
a
commitment
to
make
sure
that
we
are
attracting
the
best
and
we're
training
the
best,
and
we
have
the
best
for
the
city
of
blocks.
B
Nick
is
right
here,
he's
been,
you
know,
step
by
step
and
jason.
Earl
too.
You
know
we
know
what's
important.
The
big
number
is
to
maintain
our
you
know
our
position.
As
far
as
you
know,
we
want
to
go
from
two
to
one
right.
A
lot
of
things
related
to.
B
And
again,
one
thing
that
you'll
have
is
just
one
instance
of
this
is
that
you
know
station
five.
I
believe.
B
B
To
be
worked
out
and
again,
if
our
goal,
having
four
people
dedicated
three
shifts.
A
A
day
we
can
knock
that.
I
don't
think
anybody
else
is
not.
S
No
sir,
we
have
not
heard
we
have
not
heard
on
that.
As
of
yet
federal
government
has
has
been
dialogued
on
releasing
that
talk
by
grant
writer
beginning
of
last
week,
and
she
still
has
not
heard
they
said,
they've
trickled
out
a
couple
small
ones,
five,
six
here
over
the
past
month
or
two,
but
nothing
on
our
status.
I
I
check
it
once
a.
S
Yes
week:
yes,
sir,
it
was
actually
an
application
of
15
personnel.
So
that's
where
the
the
big
increase
on
the
budget
comes
from.
S
Seven
in
the
academy,
it's
about
a
20-week
academy
to
get
their
their
firefighter
their
hazmat
and
their
emt
basic.
B
S
Here
so
currently,
I
think
we
have
three
positions
about
another.
One
is
going
to
open
up
some
four
by
I
think
october
1st
and
I've
caught
winning.
We
have
about
another
seven
retiring
by
the
end
of
the
year,
maybe
march
you
know
in
that
first
quarter.
So
yes,
so
right
now
we
currently
run
48
million
staff
and
we
have
to
fill
those
48
seats
and
we're
sitting
at
about
51
52,
depending
on
a
b
or
c
shift
is
our
is
our
actual
staffing.
A
B
Well,
it's
just
in
it.
I
know
this
is
just
a
you
know:
blue
sky
kind
of
situation,
but
it's
part
of
our
anticipation.
C
You
know
we
pretty
much
have
an
idea
of
what
the
expenses
are:
budget
cost
for
station
five
we've
looked
at
station
five
and
I
I
think
I
I
hope
I
wanna
be
sure,
we're
on
the
same
page
we're
looking
at
maybe
getting
that
design
all
that
designed
in
fiscal
2023
coming
up
and
maybe
the
following
year.
Beginning
construction.
Are
we
looking
at
beginning
construction
to
get.
S
Are
not
looking
at
four
people
per
truck
per
station?
We
have
slower
stations,
we
have
higher
stations,
so
we
identify
those
areas.
So
currently
we
learn
48
spots,
minimum
staffing.
We
have
to
have
those
48
spots
for
each
shift
for
each
shift.
S
Currently
each
shift
runs.
We
have
about
51,
maybe
52,
on
one
shift
sitting
there.
So
as
we,
you
know,
vacation
fmla,
that
sort
of
thing.
So
what
we,
what
we
would
anticipate
we
would
like
to
get
to
about
58
per
shift
to
accommodate
for
work
with
comp.
Anybody
off
fmla
that
sort
of
thing,
so
getting
these
14
15
safer
grant.
Firefighters
would
get
us
there
in
addition
to
the
seven
that
we
are
training
right
now.
That
would
give
us
a
total
of
roughly
21,
which
split
up
three
ways:
seven
on
top
of
all
right.
S
Writer
does
a
fantastic
job,
but
you
know
we're
not
guaranteed
it.
No,
sir
right
and.
C
A
L
We
talked
about
public
works
and,
like
I
said,
the
biggest
thing
really
is
to
look
at
evaluating
those
employees,
because.
L
C
D
B
A
About
to
run
out
of
time
here,
so,
let's
get
to
engineering
proposed
increase
of
6
800,
mr
tisdale
yeah.
I
know
that
we
have
two
contract
engineers.
B
Think
one
of
them
is
about
30
a
week
30.
I
don't
know
the
dollar
amount,
but.
B
Mike
is
here
to
he's
minimized
without
a
director
situation.
You
know
the
situation
with
our
director.
We
advertise
him
for
those
directions.
D
K
One
question:
when
they
applied
those
for
the
you
know
the
workshop:
any
people
apply
for
a
job
did.
B
A
Okay,
the
other
two
items
are
syrian
port,
but
these
are
enterprise
funds.
I
think
we
had
our
individual
workshops
on
that,
so
I
don't
think
there's
a
lot
to
go
over
to
adjust
or
change.
C
C
I
make
my
annual
statement
just
an
observation
here.
A
little
genuine
excuse
me,
a
mill
generates.
I.
C
We're
paying
in
terms
of
tiff
so
looking
at
a
clear
figure,
we'll
generate
about
six
hundred
thousand
roughly
the
last
millage
increase
was
in
anybody.
Anybody.
C
L
D
C
Looking
at
what
it's
going
to
take
to
keep
employees,
you
know
700
600
000,
maybe
a
little.
This.
C
That
I
hadn't
paid
to
win.
I
anticipate
to
raise
this
increase
this
year,
but
it's
something
to
think
about.
C
Past
years,
I
worry
about
the
infrastructure,
particularly
in
west
biloxi
and
in
north
biloxi,
and
we're
doing
a
lot
of
work
in
the
city,
but
we've
got
aging
infrastructure
and
without
some
other
source
of
revenue,
it's
going
to
be
tough.
We
started
tomorrow,
it'd
take
30
years
to
do
everything.
That's
got
to
be
done
just
in
west
biloxi.
Well.
That
concludes.
